GH0Hello, I seem to have run into an issue with two files not appearing in KDE's menu, however, when attempting to rescan and re-add these, I get the following errors.00:29
GH0kbuildsycoca4(17434) KConfigGroup::readXdgListEntry: List entry Keywords in "/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop" is not compliant with XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon).00:29
GH0kbuildsycoca4(17434) KConfigGroup::readXdgListEntry: List entry Categories in "/usr/share/applications/kde4/k4dirstat.desktop" is not compliant with XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon)00:29
GH0 However, I noticed that not all files in the folder have a trailing semicolon, so I was wondering if anyone could either paste their files listed in that folder, or if they could show me a way to replace those files through a reinstall or something? Purge and aptitude reinstall does not resolve the problem.00:29

Therapyuhhh what was his name... Hi again, I was here about 30 mins ago requesting some help with ubuntu installation; i've tried to install both, 12.04 and 13.04 versions via usb device, it works fine on language selection screen and till next screen where it offers to install the system, try it out or run memory test. If I try to run it without installation or install it, in either case it starts doing some stuff (can't read, the text changes way too fast) for a f00:35
Therapyleaving me with a black screen as if it's turned on but not getting any signal from pc00:35

powhatan-danSo sda3 is your main drive01:13
wushuyup01:13
powhatan-danAre your drives SCSI?01:13
failmasteri would go to chroot and see where is it exactly01:14
powhatan-danYou are doing raid 1 correct?01:14
wushunot sure to be honest, but i am pretty sure sda1,2 and 3 are partitions on the same drive. not any raid involved01:14

failmasterwushu, during setup over gui installer i suspect it could make u to use lvm somehow, in that case the process of mounting i described will include additional steps01:16
wushuonly got one drive connected to the motherboard and one usb drive with live ubuntu01:16

powhatan-danHe only has one drive so I'm pretty sure he's not trying raid #101:17
anotherjoeanyone know how to disable 3d effects from an ssh shell01:17
wushupowhatan-dan: correct01:17
failmasterpowhatan-dan, such setups howtos often include lvm due to the option of resizing encrypted partitions01:17
wushuso guys, what is lvm? raid simulation of some sort?01:18
failmasterso in order to cover all possible troubleshoot steps it would be good to know if it's true for this case01:18
powhatan-danLogical Volume Management01:18
wushuright, will look that up thx01:18
failmasteri would go through classy debian installer for setting up such configuration (alternate cd or server)01:19
failmasterand it's better to choose 12.04 against 13.0401:19
failmasterin that case01:19
powhatan-danI'm sorry for stepping in failmaster I wasnt sure if someone was helping him01:20
wushuthe thing is that this seems a bit odd to me as i am only trying to install the latest ubuntu desktop on a single hdd without any fancyness01:20
failmasterpowhatan-dan, it doesn't work like that, everybody is involved, come on, it's a party! :D01:20
wushuthe more the merrier i guess :D01:21
powhatan-danI would select sda3 and move forward with the install01:21
failmasterwushu, latest and stable are somewhat different on practice01:21
wushu13.04 should be stable, right?01:21
failmasterwushu, i would choose 12.04 alternate or server01:22
powhatan-danThat's what I use but it's a development version and doesn't have long term support01:22
powhatan-danCan't wait for a stable saucy salamander01:22
failmasteri've just met an issue on 13.04 during set up with key file authorization for /01:22
wushuyeah, the only reason i went for 13.04 was the gui support for FDE. i guess i will just go with 12.04 like you said failmaster01:23
failmasterso imho it's clear that 12.04 is preferable01:23
failmastergui implementation of luks setup appeared later, so according to my logical conclusions classy setup would be more stable01:24

powhatan-dandual boot and still have widows/mac/photoshop03:00
powhatan-danor use gimp03:00
powhatan-danand inkscape03:00
roots47powhatan: Is it easy to go from straight linux, to windows 7 dual boot?03:00
roots47powhatan-dan: Do gimp and inkscape open psds?03:00
powhatan-danYes03:00
powhatan-danNo03:01
jribroots47: probably works ok in a vm03:01
powhatan-dannot too bad03:01
roots47jrib: Ok, I figured that was probably the only solution03:01
roots47thanks03:01
powhatan-danAre you using windows?03:01

fnordlingHello - I am having fan control issues, prolly from GPU. Is proprietary AMD Catalyst driver worth installing?03:01
powhatan-danI ran ubuntu in vmware on my mac at work and it was pretty slow03:01
=== kyle_ is now known as Guest95632
roots47powhatan-dan: i have a very fast system03:01
powhatan-danwindows?03:02
roots47powhatan-dan: and really, the processing would be happening on the remote box03:02
daftykinsfnordling: if it won't spin up the fan and overheats, it's definitely worth a go03:02
roots47powhatan-dan: at the moment, yes03:02
powhatan-danok03:02
roots47powhatan-dan: i'm switching to ubuntu03:02
roots47powhatan-dan: doing a full over-write for the time being03:02
powhatan-danI think you could use wubi03:02
powhatan-danwubi will allow you to run ubuntu like a program within windows03:03
fnordlingdaftykins: my problem is fan running too much now03:03
daftykinsoh dear tux, never recommend wubi D:03:03
powhatan-danhttp://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/windows-installer03:03
powhatan-dansorry03:03
daftykinsfnordling: oh yeah, should help that too03:03
powhatan-danI was trying to think a decent solution for him to keep his adobe suite03:04
powhatan-danI recommend dual boot personally03:04
fnordlingdaftykins: 'k thanks. give it a go then03:04
roots47I appreciate it, but I think I'll probably try the VM solution for graphics and see if that works fast enough03:04
roots47powhatan-dan: if that doesn't work, then dual boot might be the best solution03:04
powhatan-danAbsolutely that's a decent solution03:04
powhatan-danJust make sure you watch the performance03:05
powhatan-danNothing worse than lag when designing03:05
xmetalpersonally i rather dualboot then setup "Linux in WIndows" (that doesn't mean VMware)03:05
roots47powhatan-dan: that's the only thing I'm worried about... luckily I'm more involved with code than with actual designing03:05
roots47powhatan-dan: I basically just view the designs for dimensions, etc03:05
xmetalstill if i like the distro enough... dualboot is what i'd do03:05
powhatan-danCorrect i'm with xmetal all the way03:05
daftykinsroots47: i think virtualising Windows on top would be more appropriate for you, no painful rebooting that way03:05
powhatan-danIf your a code guy then you should be linux/ubuntu all the way03:05
powhatan-danas your primary system03:06
roots47daftykins: exactly03:06
roots47I'm at a point now where windows just seems to be slowing me down03:06
Guest95632linux ftw03:06
powhatan-danbtw geany is a nice program for an IDE03:06
roots47powhatan-dan: thanks, I'll check it out03:07
powhatan-danI was able to easily install notepad++ through wine which was also great for writing code03:07
daftykinsroots47: definitely get your Linux on there, then virtualbox it up :)03:07
powhatan-danLinux should be your primary setup03:08
ESphynxHey how about trying out the Ecere IDE and giving me some feedback? :)03:08
powhatan-danNo problem03:08
roots47powhatan-dan: Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing how much more productive I can be03:08
xmetalwith some exceptions, i use many of the same programs in both os's (no amtter what 'nix distro) .. Libree office, firefox, and thunderbird just to name 303:08
GhjnutIf I have an external hard drive with an NTFS partition, what permissions do I need to change so I can access it from a Win7 rig03:08
xmetaloops @ my spelling03:08
powhatan-dansudo apt-get ecere03:08
xmetalVLC is another03:08
ESphynxpowhatan-dan: sudo apt-get install ecere-sdk03:08
daftykinsGhjnut: you'll need your Windows user to have rights on it - but it should just handle it fine03:09
powhatan-danok03:09
GhjnutFor some reason I'm getting permission issues when i plug it into the windows machine03:09
ESphynxpowhatan-dan: I'm working on a pre-release right now and there will be another iteration before the one that goes in Saucy Salamander hopefuilly :)03:09
powhatan-danCan't wait for a stable saucy salamander03:10
Ghjnutdaftykins: Is there a way I can get rid of permissions?03:11
powhatan-danESphynx: I like IDE's that highlights code in blocks or represents them in the lines to the left of the code03:11
daftykinsnot really no :(03:11
xmetallove when windows throws the "Administrator does not administrator permissons" errors03:11
GhjnutWell, a+rw for windows03:11
daftykinsGhjnut: they exist to drive us insane03:11
xmetallol03:11
ESphynxpowhatan-dan: code in blocks?  like being able to highlight portions on the left side without portions of the right side?03:12
powhatan-danmore of a readability issue for me03:13
powhatan-danmakes it easier to read03:13
powhatan-danand quickly move blocks of code03:13
ESphynxpowhatan-dan: but what do you mean?03:13

powhatan-danahh03:15
ESphynxunfortunately not high priority right now, but contributions are welcome :P03:15
ESphynxwhat's the other thing?  like a lines overview?03:15
ESphynxhow do you display on the left side as lines?03:16
GhjnutMaybe a better question to ask would be: If I want to transfer files from an ubuntu install to a windows 7 machine via an external, how should I format the partition?03:16

roots47So, the ISO I downloaded is apparently just Ubuntu 13.04, but I see there is also a "Gnome" version.  Does the desktop version come with any windows?03:22
xirreIf someone gets access to your SSH, what should you do? As precaution.03:22
roots47Ubuntu 13.04 Desktop*03:22
rjknight1firewall03:22
rjknight1deny port ssh03:22
ESphynxpowhatan-dan: Did you check out those gnosis shots? :)03:23
xirreHow would I do that under Ubuntu 13.04?03:23
xmetallike with mint, in ubuntu, you should be able to download ifferent desktops to suit your need (Gnome, kde, xfce, ..etc)03:24
daftykinsyou can03:25
xmetali usually pick one to download for the iso and then after i install it, i download the other DE's03:25
xmetalas long as i can switch (i can) ... i never really care which one i get for the "intial installer" (ISO)03:25
roots47xmetal: So Ubuntu 13.04 Desktop is fine?03:25
roots47xmetal: I wasn't sure if this came with a particular windows installed or something03:26
rjknight1@xirre use ufw03:26
xmetalnot sure what dE that uses .. I am getting the idea that it's "Unity" ... if you want gnome or KDE for example, you can download the packages for those two and install them and switch anytime you want :)03:26
xmetal(Disclaimer: I do not use Ubuntu, but it and the one I use "Linux Mint" are very similar)03:27
xmetalubuntu users may be able to help more03:27
xmetalthe "usual" ISOs for any distro are usually Live CD/DVDs03:27
xmetalwhich reminds me i need to backup a few isos :)03:27
xmetalbrb03:27
dr_willisunity is the default desktop03:29
dr_willis!unity03:30
ubottuUnity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04.  Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity03:30
roots47xmetal: in your honest opinion, what do you like about mint over ubuntu? if anything?03:30
lolcatUnity is gardbadge meant to be used on touch screens03:30
roots47xmetal: One of the sys-admin guys at my old work used mint and liked it03:30
dr_willisits trivial to install extra desktops03:30
dr_willis!fud03:30
ubottuPlease do not fall prey to, or spread FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) - it is not welcome here!  Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty_and_doubt03:30
xmetali agree ..,. its a piece of cake to install them03:30
rhtrar_oh, i'm glad i'm not the only one who hates unity03:31
dr_willismenu03:31
xmetalreally i cant comment on Ubuntu since last i used it, was version 10.10 ... unity turns me off, but the two are so similar i think i dont feel the need for both03:31
xmetal(ubuntu and Mint)03:31
xmetalthey both are good03:31
maitakeubuntu and xfce is a great pair03:32
roots47I'm pretty new to the linux world.  I am a developer, is there anything, in mint or ubuntu that would make my life easier as a developer? Or are the differences very subtle?03:32
maitakexubuntu or otherwise03:32
xmetalxfce is what i use on alot of distros03:32
dr_willisroots47:  developing what?03:32
maitakei modified my xfce install a LOT.. looks wicked sexy03:32
xmetalfor new users i recommend Mint or Ubuntu (just without unity)03:32
roots47dr_willis: Mostly javascript, we use git, and experimenting with other languages03:33
maitakeyeah mint is nice03:33
xmetali like the fact that with both distro's (especially with each version of either) i dont have to spend hours trying to configure it03:33
maitakeme too03:33
xmetal(hours = may be pushing it for a choice of words)03:33
roots47hehe03:33
dr_willisunity is fine. wife and grandkids can handle it. they dont have the preconceived  notions of how a desktop should be03:34
maitakebut then if you want to configure and tweak lots of things, the sky is the limit :)03:34
maitakeunlike windows03:34
xmetali just dont care for Unity (only my personal opinion) .. i like almost anything else03:34
xmetal(Xfce, lxde (i think i got that right), KDE, or Gnome03:34
xmetal)03:35
steve228I have a question about the app launcher Docky, but went to their IRC channel and nobody would even respond... Is there anybody in here that has experience with docky?03:35
maitakeyeah it's fair.. unity does it's thing well but isn't for everyone03:35
dr_willisi am getting too used to android type desktops.. i try android things on the pc. ;-)  out of habbit03:35
maitakesteve228: I do03:35
maitakewhat you want to know?03:35
xmetaltrue .. i am just saying i dont like it ... some users love it and i say "use what you like"03:35
maitakeandroid is cool03:35
xmetalthats the thing i love about linux .. your not stuck with "one or the other"03:35
xmetal:)03:35
maitakexmetal: yeah haha. honestly i think the divide among gnome 3 users and non-users is worse.. lots of trash talk03:36
maitakeexactly03:36
maitakesteve228: what's your question?03:36
xmetali never heard of lxde til a week ago and i have to say i really like it03:36
steve228I have the dock installed and tried to use the terminal helper, but it is not working03:37
maitakeoh :(03:37
maitakei never had much luck with the helpers either03:37
xmetal(i hope i have that right :P .. close enough)03:37
maitakenot sure why03:37
steve228I dragged my home folder to the dock and it is not adding a menu entry for opening a terminal03:37
steve228is there maybe a config file that I can tinker with03:38
maitakewell maybe i'm not who you need to ask after all :( i've toyed with docky a lot but never bothered to try and make the helpers work03:38
maitakesteve228: there's dconf-editor03:38
steve228what about nautilus scripts?03:38
steve228because that would be just as good03:38
maitakedocky options show up under Apps -> Docky03:38
steve228thanks..03:39
maitakesteve228: oops, misled you..03:39
maitakenot dconf-editor, but gconf-editor :)03:39
maitakeshould see a lot of docky options when you expand 'apps'03:40
steve228and how do you get my name in front of your message? is that a command (sorry I haven't used IRC in a while)03:43
steve228yea i already had gconf up lol thanks though...03:43
steve228maitake: were you typing my name before writing your message, or is it a command (sorry haven't used IRC in a while)03:44
maitakesteve228: ah, that can depend03:45

failmasterreazem, what?04:21
failmasteri just found a bug related to gdm issue04:21

failmasterof the issue04:23
reazemfailmaster, are you using the same keyfile or is that not your crypttab?04:23
failmasterbecause it is issue, since this scheme used to work on 12.04 and it still works for sdb1 drive presented on the system04:23
iceliteHi04:23
failmasterreazem, i don't see the reason to use another one in context of situation04:23
reazemfailmaster, did you manage to mount the drive manualy with the keyfile after?04:24
failmasterwhat is strange is that maybe i have a clue why is this happening, but no one tries to discuss the subject for three days, not into question branch on launchpad, not into this bug report04:25

xmetalbut that was a long time ago04:35
xmetalsupport has improved04:35
reazemfailmaster, I run debian and it's all encrypted :)04:35
failmasterreazem, wheezy?04:35
aleksey2013)))04:35
holsteinaleksey2013: maybe, and probably no one. state your issue and a volunteer will help if they can04:36
reazemfailmaster, recently upgraded to jessy.04:36
failmasterreazem, passphrase?04:36
reazemfailmaster, yeah I use a yubikey for my systems.04:36
reazemI don't really see a point in keyfiles.04:36
roots47xmetal: Can I more than likely at least find the drivers for my wireless card?04:36
failmasterreazem, does your usb keyboard works under initramfs? did u have issues with latest setup images? i did04:37
roots47xmetal: I can transfer them via some other means04:37
reazemfailmaster, so did I for the keyboard lol04:37
xmetallikely .. i found that more recent versions of Mint (ubuntu is going to be the same way i bet) have had better support for hardware and I have not had to manually install anything04:38
reazemfailmaster, that's actually the reason I used jessy. I wanted to reinstall my wheezy system and KB wouldn't work on latest wheezy image.04:38
failmasterreazem, try to take usb hdd and make cp netinst_or_dvd1.iso on it and get into expert install, did you meet the issue when it mounts wrong device as installation media?04:38
xmetali'd try the live dvd/cd and see if it detects your hardware, befure you install it04:38
xmetalbefore *04:38
xmetalyou can see if it see's your hardware before you install anything, that way04:39
failmasterreazem, i tired spending two days with those issues on wheezy this week04:39
reazemfailmaster, Yeah i have had this issue too.04:39
wilee-nileexmetal, Mint is based on ubuntu I doubt ubuntu will do anything they do, all the drivers are available in ubuntu you just have to work a little harder, that is mints point.04:39
reazemfailmaster, Has to do with the fact that we are using USB I think04:39
failmasterreazem, and there are no guarantess i won't get into same situation i'm in now with key files04:40

reazemfailmaster, Heh. Depending on the complexity of your setup trying can take as few as 30 minutes.04:40
reazemfailmaster, I can rebuild my whole system in 30mins script does it all.04:41
reazemfailmaster, actually. I might do that tomorrow for my desktop. I'04:41
reazemim pissed at unstable ubuntu raring lol04:41
failmasterreazem, yeah, because it became too easy to install linux on desktops which caused hordes of people who doesn't need anything special to change priorities in distrib maintaining process to this current point where you can't get nothing to work from start until you need nothing but raw xfce/unity/gnome/kde desktop04:41
roots47xmetal: Too late.  Is there any way to figure out which drivers I need to dowload?04:42
wilee-nileeroots47, You said " I tried wiring my laptop directly" Ethernet right?04:42
reazemfailmaster, You're on raring too?04:42
failmasterthat's why if i won't deal with my current issues on ubuntu i won't come here anymore and won't provide any of my free time to help people to use linux04:42
failmasterreazem, unfortunately in my case it doesn't change anything, 13.04 or even debian so_stable wheezy, i am04:43
reazemfailmaster, Just GTFO raring and get 12.10.04:43
xmetalwell a simple web search should do it ... if you have another OS installed, get the name of your wifi adapter and search for that "and ubuntu" and see if you get any results04:43
xmetal(in "device manager")04:43
xmetalfor example04:43
failmasterreazem, i'm talking about dealing with issues, getting rid of the whole instance is not a solution, it's an escape04:43
reazemfailmaster, it's not supposed to be stable software. if there is really a bug, you'll have to touch souce to fix it.04:44
failmasterreazem, i very appreciate those couple of guys who paid attention to my problems04:44

roots47Hmm, now that everything is up and running.  Any opinions on gnome 3 vs unity?06:11
unfailedagainboth sux?06:11
goddardgnome3 is better but unity still beats it because of how windows are maximized06:11
goddardit is really the best design in that regard06:11
goddardi think the only DE that can copy it is KDE06:12
holsteinroots47: try unity live. you can probably install gnome liv as well.. i use a desktop that doenst require 3d06:12
goddardholstein: why?06:13
goddardold system?06:13
holsteingoddard: i choose to.. i dont need 3d on the desktop06:13
goddardholstein: why not?06:13
holsteingoddard: i dont need it.. so i dont have it06:14
goddardits pretty nice and if you dont have an old system it works great06:14
iceroot_goddard: and you can do all tasks without 3d support, so why using 3d then?06:14
goddardVisual pleasure06:15

iceroot_goddard: some users prefer visual highlights, others not06:15
goddardiceroot_: i know that but i wanted to know his reason06:15
unfailedagaindoes mutter requires 3d?06:15
goddardiceroot_: some people just say that because they have old hardware06:16
iceroot_goddard: i normally just something which is able to show and manage the windows from the programs, close them, move them, thats all06:16
holsteinunfailedagain: last i checked on it, it didnt.. but its been a while i had it running06:16
goddardothers like flat plan desktops06:16
goddardat some point the reason to optimize by removing 3d effects and what not becomes pointless if that is the reason06:17
iceroot_goddard: sure and it is good that there are different user which prefer different systems and the great hting is, you have the choice :)06:18
reisioif 3d effects help your brain interface with your UI better, making you more efficient, nice06:18
reisioIMO that is rarely the case :p06:18
holsteingoddard: i didnt "remove" them.. i just started with something that better suits my needs and preferences.. nothing wrong with whizzz-bang06:18
iceroot_goddard: 1. its depening on your graphic card, for example you need non-free software for specific cards to have good 3d support06:18
reisiounless your brain is quite shallow :)06:18

reisioeuxneks: if you made a new, extra user and logged in and it worked fine with that user, then that would suggest some simple corruption/misconfiguration of config files in your original user's ~/07:02

tgaryreisio: I'm not a hardware expert, but think there is similar for USBs too: If you power off your computer, and USB keyboard will not wake up the computer, because there is no power for the HUBs. But when I suspend my machine, it can wake up for a key press on an USB keyboard.09:07

Dr_WillisShadow}}:  the 'digital ocean' vpn/vps site had some guides on that topic i recall09:25
tgaryhisto: I've tried suspend to ram, but the charge stopped. It is an OS issue, how the USB HUB is turned off. Like you suggested: when I turn off my computer, Ubuntu puts the USB HUB in "off-off" mode. When I suspend it to ram, it stops it in a higher power state, thus enabling device charging.09:26
Shadow}}Dr_Willis; I'm on a how-to now, but it says to edit these vars however, I do not know if i am to change the vars to whatever or as he shows in the example...09:26

wiehanI can log into a network share, have set the permissions to 755, but I can't write to it. Is it because the server is treating the samba user as a guest or "other" with no write permissions? I really need to get this write16:21

daftykinsGuest74987: you'll need to look up the printer model for support, the graphics card won't be supported by AMD's proprietary fglrx driver, so you'll need to confirm support with the open source 'radeon' driver. as for the TV card - no idea16:43

ikoniafoobArrr: disable networking, or change the dhcp time out16:46
daftykinsdon-geforce630_: what i mean is, people tend to add 'nomodeset' when the GUI doesn't work at all, so i'm wondering whether you added it after installing the nvidia driver or not16:47
daftykinsdon-geforce630_: it's definitely not reading the info from your screen.16:47

ikoniahrolf: what is "your place" a school, an office,17:02
hrolfikonia: It is like he got one connection, and than installed a router and gives everyone otther17:02
hrolfikonia: for using on a low price17:02
hrolfikonia: Home17:03
ikoniahrolf: how many people are using this ?17:03
hrolfikonia: Around 15 to 20 (rough figure(17:03
hrolf)17:03
ikoniaseems an odd "home" network with 15 - 20 people using his17:03
ikoniaI'd talk to the administrator to block the mac address of the device17:04
hrolfikonia: The admin is not capable enough17:04
ikoniahrolf: then he needs to get capable17:04
holsteinhrolf: then, i would seek another network.. you will always have issues there17:05
hrolfikonia: Not possible17:05
hrolfthat's the issue17:05
ikoniahrolf: is this one place, eg: a house ?17:05
hrolfikonia: Yes, my home.17:05
ikoniahrolf: so walk to the router, unplug each cable until you find the device spoofing17:05
ikoniahrolf: then follow that cable to the person17:05
ikoniahrolf: then kick them off the network / tell them not to do it17:06
hrolfikonia: Is there any tool which let's say tracks the packets and determines the spoofing device?17:06
ikoniahrolf: tcpdump17:07
ikoniahrolf: but you'll find what I've just suggested easier17:07
ikoniahrolf: walk to the switch, unplug cables one at a time17:07
ikoniahrolf: monitor it on your ubuntu desktop17:07
ikoniahrolf: then when you see the spoofing stop, follow the cable to the person doing it17:07
don-geforceok so i reverted back to X.org server - Nouveau drivers and now my max display resolution is 1024x768. Anyway to force it 1366x768?17:08
hrolfikonia: How do I tell if spoofing has been stopped?17:08
ikoniahrolf: how can you see someone is spoofing ?17:08
daftykinsdon-geforce: you could play with xrandr17:08
holsteindon-geforce: maybe not.. though, i have had good luck with custom xorg.conf files.. sometimes i try arandr, a GUI tool.. or i'll try a knoppix live CD and grab the xorg.conf from there17:08

don-geforceholstein, seems a bit complicated for me. Im just trying out ubuntu for the first time17:09
hrolfikonia: My main machine internet stops, I start a WINDOWS VM, there I have netcut installed and I cut all the people in network and then my internet starts working in the VM17:09
Archguywho knows how to use libfvde here? http://ix.io/7a717:10
ikoniahrolf: that doesn't sound like someone is spoofing, that sounds like you are kicking everyone off the network17:10
holsteindon-geforce: sure.. keep in mind it would ideally be, just like in windows, the hardware manufacturer's responsibilty to support the OS you are choosing.. some devices can be quite tricky, or not work well at all17:10
ikoniahrolf: it could be something as simple as an IP address conflict, or a lack of IP addresses in the DHCP pool17:10
hrolfikonia: what netcut does it cuts off internet by ARP spoofing17:10
ikoniahrolf: so ?17:11
ikoniahrolf: you're arp spoofing, that doesn't mean anyone else is17:11
hrolfikonia: but when I cut off everyone else, then my internet starts working17:11
holsteindon-geforce: you can always just use something like xubuntu or lubuntu that doesnt require 3d, and even use the vesa driver.. or use linux in VM in windows.. or keep trying live CD's til something "works" and make a note of the kernel version (or ask the manufacturer for support, which wont go well)17:11
ikoniahrolf: yes, I understand that,17:11
ikoniahrolf: but that doesn't mean someone is spoofing17:11
don-geforceso basically its my monitor's fault17:11
hrolfikonia: What does that mean then?17:12
holsteindon-geforce: its no one or nothings "fault".. im proposing, based on past experience, and what you are stating, that its a graphics card driver support issue17:12
ikoniahrolf: you need to work with the network administrator,17:12

PhoenixzHello, I'm a webdev, and on my development computer, this morning, I got a mysql update. I applied it, and it failed, and now I am without mysql database server, and so I cannot work :( Checked mysql error log, got this beauty: ERROR: 1064  You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ALTER TABLE user ADD column Show_view_priv enum('N','Y') CHARACTER SET utf8 NOT ' at17:13
Phoenixzline 117:13

gordonjcprtfmdude: did you actually have an Ubuntu support question?17:19

michelehi there. I'm trying to install ncdu. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=ncdu&searchon=names&suite=raring&section=all - however, apt-get does not find it. http://pastie.org/8222288 . how come? thanks17:19

ikoniartfmdude: final warning - stop messing around in here17:20
Phoenixzikonia: I read somewhere that I'd need to purge mysql-common package, but half my system depends on that, I would end up with nothing left :)17:20
Phoenixzikonia: trying your suggestion, one sec17:20
BlackHarvestHmm, when I go into  my system settings and change the scroll speed for my touch pad, it doesn't save the changes.  Any idea why this might be?17:20
ikoniaPhoenixz: well, I think I have a "clean" solution for you, but it's going to require some effort and care,17:20
ikoniaPhoenixz: I suggest we go through it - plan it and execute it17:20

Phoenixzwell, I want my mysql DB to run smoothly again17:21
PhoenixzI guess I could run mysqlcheck now?17:22
ikoniaPhoenixz: what did you do to get in ?17:22
PhoenixzI did sudo mysqld --skip-grant-tables17:22
ikoniaok, so the grants table got screwed17:22
Phoenixzthen on another console mysql -p and I got in the mysql server17:22
Phoenixzyezzz :)17:22
ikoniathat's a bit of luck17:22
ikoniaok, so what you need to do is re-create the grants17:22
Phoenixzwell, that happy face is not really happy yet, but lets just say this is better than I've had in the last 2 hours..17:22
ikoniathat should be enough to then start it without the --skip-grants-table17:22
ikoniaPhoenixz: what you should do is quickly tabke mysql dumps of your personal databases17:23
ikoniaPhoenixz: eg: mysqldump on your databses to get backups we can use to import later if we need them17:23
Phoenixzokay... that would take a while, I have several gigs worth :) but good idea17:23
Phoenixzikonia: How would I recreate the grants?17:24
ikoniaPhoenixz: so depends if the tables actually screwed up, or just the data,17:24
ikoniaPhoenixz: the "grant" command is the obvious one17:24
Phoenixzikonia: I'd have to do that for all users17:24
Phoenixzok17:24
ikoniaPhoenixz: I'll have to research the table structure I think it's going to be a combination in the of "user,db and host" tables in the mysql database17:24
=== dpac is now known as dpac|away
Phoenixzikonia: crazy idea maybe but.. what if..17:25
Phoenixza) move /var/lib/mysql out of the way17:25
Phoenixzb) reinstall mysql all the way, c)dump mysql DB to SQL file, d) move my old DB's back, d) start mysql with skip grants, then e) mysql  < myexportedmysql.sql file?17:26
don-geforce"xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default"17:26
don-geforceany idea how to fix this?17:26

Guest74987Lunar_Lander, i'm not sure how to fix it, i don't use the unity interface, maybe you can right click on the icon and go to properties and change the icon to the correct one18:13
Lunar_Landerok, thanks :)18:14
danielboston26gordonjcp is it still currputing data?18:14
gordonjcpdanielboston26: not that I've noticed18:14
bkfitzgordonjcp, I guess I could configure openssh to run on 21 :)18:14
gordonjcpbkfitz: well, you need to explain to the admins for the LAN that you need them to fix it18:14
danielboston26gordonjcp been doing some research and appreantly the first implementation was currupting data on drives larger then 2tb18:15
rtfmdudebkfitz, look for tutorials/howtos like http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2012/03/chroot-sftp-setup/ no u most probably won't be able to switch sftp thing from openssh daemon on 21st port18:15
gordonjcpbkfitz: I'd get ssh going one way or another, then use something like Fabric to automate uploads18:15
danielboston26gordonjcp it said that both debian and ubuntu disabled write support for HFS+18:15
gordonjcpdanielboston26: okay18:15
bkfitzgordonjcp, whats wrong with sftp18:15
danielboston26gordonjcp do you know if thats still the case?18:15
gordonjcpdanielboston26: not a scooby18:16
gordonjcpbkfitz: well sftp works over ssh18:16
bkfitzrtfmdude, I thought you could run openssh on whatever port you want18:16
gordonjcpbkfitz: yes, you can, although your admins might get a bit sniffy18:16
rtfmdudebkfitz, yeah but you won't get sftp feature18:16
danielboston26gordonjcp what does that mean?18:16
gordonjcpbkfitz: hence why I'm saying you need to talk to them to unbreak the network18:16
bkfitzgordonjcp, right... so what's wrong with two ssh daemons... one for traditional ssh on 22 for traditional ssh and one on 21 for sftp18:16
gordonjcpbkfitz: it may be possible to configure it to listen on both ports18:17
bkfitzgordonjcp, openssh on 21 (traffic will look like sftp anyway)18:17
gordonjcpbkfitz: or just make it listen on some other port and use that - and make sure you specify the port18:17
bkfitzgordonjcp, only ports open to the outside are 80 and 2118:17
gordonjcpbkfitz: anyway you want to automate uploading and stuff as much as possible18:17
gordonjcpbkfitz: your network is broken, and you need to get the admins to fix it18:18
bkfitzgordonjcp :)18:18
gordonjcpbkfitz: or stop paying them for it18:18
bkfitzgordonjcp: policy to close 22 above me18:19
rtfmdudemaybe ftp with ssl could be an option?18:20
bkfitzgordonjcp, but irrelevant18:20
bkfitzrtfmdude, isn't that what sftp is?18:20
rtfmdudebkfitz, not exactly18:20
rtfmdudeftps/sftp u c?18:20
bkfitzrtfmdude, doesn't it stand for ssh file transfer proto18:21

rtfmdudeholstein, fully encrypted luks instance with key file on /boot removable media18:33
rtfmdudeholstein, currently i see it as a bug, i might be wrong, that's why i'm asking18:33
MoPacHello - I'm looking for help with two issues relating to keyrings. (1) My system does not seem to respect my Enigmail preference to clear my PGP passphrase after X minutes. Once I enter it, it stays unlocked indefinitely, which is not what I want. (2) Almost every session, i unlock a certain keyring manually, which is how I want it. How do I set the auto-unlock at login box to unticked by default?18:33
holsteinrtfmdude: im not debating if its a bug or not.. just trying to address your specific need with a potential alternative.. what is it that you are trying to do?18:34
rtfmdudeholstein, fully encrypted luks instance with key file on /boot removable media <- that's what18:34
MonkeyDustMoPac  is this useful? old article... http://www.maketecheasier.com/auto-unlock-keyring-manager-in-ubuntu-intrepid/2009/03/1418:34

=== jigger is now known as sanvero
holsteinrtfmdude: installed "one" instance?18:36
MoPacMonkeyDust: Unfortunately not: the newer dialogue has this extra tick box on it, and if you leave it ticked when you enter the password, it adds that keyring password to your default login keyring, chained together. So I have to carefully untick it every time or else have the hassle of going back in the settings and deleting it from the default keyring18:37
MonkeyDustMoPac  this is is more recent http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2013/07/disable-unlock-login-keyring-ubuntu-13-04/18:37
rtfmdudeholstein, sorry, maybe my english is too frustrating, just read the whole question that's why i wrote it18:37
Richterhi, today i have a little problem... my ubuntu server automatic disconect the nfs. I reboot and its work again, some one have this problem too? how i can find this in my (giant) log?18:37
holsteinrtfmdude: i did, and im asking for clarification.. what is a "one" instance?18:37
rtfmdudeholstein, "installed instance" installed ONE u c?18:38
rtfmduderepeating purposes one18:38
holsteinrtfmdude: i realize you are having a challenging time with an issue, but this is a quite advanced scnario that normal destkop useage doesnt encounter much18:38
rtfmdudeit's not advanced18:38
rtfmdudedefine "normal desktop user"18:38
MoPacMonkeyDust: My problem is really the opposite of what's in those articles.  I have a separate keyring that I DON'T want to unlock on login.  Its password is much stronger than my default login password, and I need it to be different. But Ubuntu keeps trying to get me to add it to my default keyring, which defeats the whole purpose18:38
holsteinrtfmdude: i didnt offer that as a statement for debate.. it *is* advance.. not typical18:39
BlackHarvestLooks like my mouse issues could be due to multi-touch... any ideas on how to disable that feature?18:39
holsteinrtfmdude: that is why you *are* having a challenging time with it.. to recap.. you have an installation of 13.04? on usb? and you are trying to encrypt it?18:39
rtfmdudewhat is typical setup for linux distribution? the desktop with unity? i don't think so, linux is supposed to be more than that18:39
MoPacSo all I really want there is to be able to type in the password and press "enter" without accidentally wrecking my security every time because the wrong option is always checked by default18:40
rtfmdudeholstein, on 2 hard drives with /boot media on usb stick18:40
rtfmdudewhat is it unclear?18:40
holsteinrtfmdude: sure.. and "linux' can be what you like.. but you are not using a typical "out of the box" scenario" with ubuntu or any of the derivitives.. im not debating is a bug.. just ring to help get you an answer18:40
rtfmdudedefine typical, show me where i can read on wiki for example about typical setup18:41
holsteinrtfmdude: that statement its self is unclear for me.. you have one installation over 2 usb sticks?18:41

OerHeks_joey so you are not on ubuntu?19:33
Orxata_The problem is, I don't want to use OpenJDK anymore, I want to install the oracle jdk19:34
MoPacOrxata_: And I'm assuming that your goal is to have no version at all, right? or is there an earlier one you want19:34
DJones_joey: It might help if you said what desktop you were using19:34

GH0Hey could someone look at something for me? My phone was resting on my bed while I was watching TV in our living room, I went to grab my phone, checked the battery stat, and noticed a blank area which indicated it restarted. So I looked at the uptime and it is only an hour or so. SO I pulled the last_kmesg from /proc/ . I see a lot of things, but none of them quite make much sense to me. This is on Sprint's stock ROM with root and CWM. http://pastebin.com/xxhf19:36
GH0AdxJ19:36
MoPacOrxata_: I mean, I think you should be able to uninstall it if you want. Ubuntu wouldn't be forcing you to keep any package.19:36

GH0Xchat seems to have broken the line up.19:36
makarapatricknellum, what IRC client are you using?19:37

=== CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away
MoPacSo mark 6 for complete removal, then see if it installs 7 without your permission. If it does, mark 7 for removal too, and hopefully it will work.  If it tries putting 7 back on there, you can also force version19:38
Orxata_However19:38
DJonesGH0: I think you're in the wrong channel for that question, this is Ubuntu support19:38

GH0Thought I had clicked #sgs419:38

MoPacOrxata_: Right, just do it for 6, and if it puts 7 on there, then do it for  7, and hopefully it won't be able to put 6 back on19:39

=== Awaken_ is now known as Awaken
MoPacOrxata_: Although it's also possible that that these programs are dependencies for others. It's possible that what's happening is that some version is getting installed because some other package needs a JDK. So if this doesn't work, you may need to try installing the oracle one first and then removing openjdk19:40

dontyouwishhello.  noob here....currently running 12.04 64 bit off dvd in drive.....how do i install directly to usb and still have the ability to save files without having to reinstall everytime19:55
holsteini use unetbootin, and i format before making the stick.. not the only way to make a bootable stick, but it works for me19:55
holsteindontyouwish: i just do an install to the USB stick as if its a drive.. the issue is going to be installing grub onto the stick instead of the main hard drive19:56
holsteini might do a minimal insatll, and manually install grub where i want.. then, add what i want to the installation19:56
dontyouwishi am very new to his OS.  i see in the install part it asks for file partitioning.  i have a 32 gig usb drive id like to install the OS onto and be able to build my own personl OS on it19:56
wiehanhow do I add a user to a group via terminal19:57
holsteindontyouwish: if you are "new", consider just running it live.. or live with persistence.. from a pendrive linux guide19:57
holsteindontyouwish: otherwise, its just like a typical install, using the USB as the destination drive, but you will break the bootloader current setup that way19:57
dontyouwishwell i dont want to later on re install everything all over again19:58
holsteinwiehan: sudo adduser 'yourusername' 'groupname'19:58

holstein!mini19:59
ubottuThe Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD19:59
holsteindontyouwish: ^^the mini iso asks about installing grub, and you can choose to not install it and set it up manually later.. of the USB stick19:59
holsteindontyouwish: what youare asking is "easiest" from the persistence method, arguably19:59
MoPacf00bar80: is "rating" there where it should be "raring" or "quantal" ?20:00
dontyouwishto holstein, i have used ubuntu on cd and usb drive in the try out mode for quite some time now20:00
dontyouwishnow i want to go the exra step20:00
DoverMoholstein, does the install not recognize a usb for boot destination?20:00
DoverMoer20:00
holsteindontyouwish: the extra step is, either install or use persistence20:00
holsteinDoverMo: yes20:01
dontyouwishok but when it comes to a fresh install with nothing on the usb drive, what do i format the first part to xfat, swap, ext3?20:01
MoPacI'm trying to solve two Keyrings problems. (1) My PGP password is being cached indefinitely even if I tell Enigmail to only store for X minutes. (2) When unlocking keyrings, I need the "unlock on login" box unchecked by default20:01
holsteindontyouwish: you let the installer do it "automatically"20:02
dontyouwishthe installer still asks me for install location and i send to usb and its asking about root directory and such20:02

dontyouwish:)20:04
holsteindontyouwish: you can also, take the stick to another machine.. then, refit or whatever you are using will see the installation from the USB20:05
holsteindontyouwish: if the question is "how to i partition a drive for installation?".. let the installer do it.. on MBP or not20:05
dontyouwishso you are saying i can use my windows machine and install it directly to the usb from dvd on that and just go from there20:05
holsteindontyouwish: if you want to manually partition, you can use a 1gb swap and the rest ext420:05

Dr_Willissampson623:  No you can not.21:22
sampson623Shoot. Where is there a safe way to install ubuntu then (I've been told you can smoke your hard drive)21:22
Dr_WillisWubi is basically a dead project for many reasons21:22
angsis ubuntu's terminal tmux?21:22
Dr_Willissampson623:  it cant 'smoke' your hard drive.  it can  mess with windows installs. and there is/was a known bug with SAMSUNG laptops (some makes) that can cause the laptop to be bricked. but that was not ubuntus specific21:23
Dr_Willissampson623:  'safest' way to test out Ubuntu would be to run it in virtualbox21:23
sampson623I have an HP Laptop so the samsung bug wont affect me21:23
Dr_Willispersonally id go get a affordable SSD for the laptop. remove the windows HD.. lock it away.. install the ssd and put ubuntu on that. ;)21:24
sampson623Well how much of a risk is it really if I just partion my drive21:25
Dr_Willissampson623:  always have backups of your imporntant stuff.. and  for a windows box. Id be sure to know how to restore windows. Make a restoreDVD set with the windows tools.21:25
DoverMosampson623, the only reason your hard drive would fail is that if your hard drive was actually faulty at that point in time21:25
Dr_Willisand perhaps make a 'image backup' of windows - if you want to be extra safe21:25
=== jned is now known as tp43_
sampson623How do I make an image backup Dr_Willis21:26
Dr_Willisthe biggest 'risk' is you some how 'break' the os. and dont have an os that boots properly. you would then need to reinstall21:26
Dr_Willissampson623:  for windows.. ask in #windows21:26
Dr_WillisI never bother imageing windows. I just reinstall it.21:26
Dr_WillisI would imagine clonezilla can do it.21:26
sampson623This laptop is pretty much a reddit machine. I could just factory restore it if something gets wonky, right?21:27
Dr_WillisDo you know HOW to do that? do you have a 'dvd restore disk set' ?21:28
Dr_WillisDONT rely on the HD 'restore' partitions21:28
sampson623I'm sure this laptop is still under warranty21:29
Dr_Williswarrenty wont do much good if you delete your entire hard drive and need to reinstall windows to it.21:29
Dr_Willisand there should be a tool on the windows side to make a dvd-restore-disk-set21:29
Dr_Willisthats the first thing i do on any new windows machine i get/setup. make a DVD set.21:30
sampson623I can create a recovery drive. Would that be what I want?21:30
sampson623I'll just ask in Windows, thanks!21:31

bcowsah figured it out zykotick9... you have to first expand it into the unallocated space, then in a second resizing shrink it to the right back to it's original size to move it to the right22:02

lorddeltawell the folks over at #mysql seem to think its ubuntu that handles upstart jobs. Proceeding to file a bug.22:06
Dr_WillisUpstart is a ubuntu feature lorddelta22:08
Dr_Willis!upstart | lorddelta22:08
ubottulorddelta: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/22:08
Dr_Willislorddelta:  what is the exact issue you are having?22:08
nightrider72hi all22:11
angsdoes ubuntu's terminal allows you to make a search among texts are on the terminal?22:11
nightrider72anyone has experience with using 802.1x with machine based authentication using EAP/TLS (computer certificates)?22:12
Dr_Willisangs:  that would be a feature of the terminal emulator you are using i imagine.22:12
Dr_Willisangs:  ive not noticed that feature in gnome-terminal., but konsole MIGHT have a feature like that22:12
zykotick9angs: are you familiar with grep?22:12
Dr_Willisangs:  you mean search the terminals  'output history buffer' correct?22:12
Dr_Willis'on the terminal'  is a little vague ;P22:13
zykotick9angs: grep won't directly help you with what your asking (i believe), but it's VERY handy to search in any terminal output you give it.22:13
nightrider72802.1x anyone?  ;)22:15
Dr_Willisnightrider72:  be a bit more specific in your question.22:15
DastweeperWould anyone be able to assist with a networking problem?22:15

DastweeperI'Thanks for that, wilee.22:16
rhtrarhi all, does anybody know if there is a way to access Google Hangouts  from other messaging programs, such as pidgin?22:16
wilee-nileeDastweeper, No problem it is actually ##networking22:16
kubblaibooh: Iirc you can try the ubuntu boot fix tool22:17
Dr_Willisbooh:  you do realize you can install just the Kubuntu/kde desktop on top of your Ubuntu install - then select what desktop to use at the login screen?22:17
Dr_Willisbooh:  if you boot to one of the ubuntus and rerun 'sudo update-grub' it Should find and show both installs ont eh grub menu at boot time22:18
Dr_Willisbooh:  these are 2 differnt ubuntu versions? or just kubuntu 13.04 and ubuntu 13.04?22:19
wilee-nileebooh, One of the linux installs will control the boot, you can choose which one if you want and reload the grub-bootloader to the mbr from the terminal in its deskstop, with sudo grub-install /dev/sdX   X ix the HD not a partition.22:20
