| cartusia | where do you go to find out the command line equivalent to open a program | 00:12 |
| cartusia | for example under the Unity system settings | 00:12 |
| cartusia | I am trying to open software sources (I believe that is what it is called) | 00:13 |
| cartusia | but just in general where do you find out about stuff like that | 00:13 |
| cartusia | sometimes its pretty straight forward other times it is not :( | 00:13 |
| kostkon | cartusia, open the software centre and select edit -> software sources | 00:15 |
| kostkon | cartusia, generally you use the dash to search for applications | 00:16 |
| qkall | man the size of this room is really lagging my zipit z2 [weechat] | 00:25 |
| qkall | ...weird... | 00:25 |
| cartusia | I said through the commandline | 00:26 |
| cartusia | kostkon, the GUI is not working, and I made pretty sure to be clear "command line" | 00:26 |
| bazhang | !apt-get | cartusia | 00:26 |
| ubottu | cartusia: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) | 00:26 |
| cartusia | thanks for the answer its not just what I was looking for and I already | 00:26 |
| bazhang | cartusia, to search use apt-cache search | 00:27 |
| FatalPriapism | Does anyone have any experience with setting up 4 monitors running off 2 gfx cards? | 00:29 |
| kostkon | cartusia, your sources list files reside in /etc/apt in particular your main one is /etc/apt/sources.list and the others are in the subfolder /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 00:29 |

| PatrickDickey | FatalPriapism: about the only suggestion that I can think of is seeing whether or not the configuration utility for the graphics cards supports that option (AMD Catalyst or Nvidia, etc). | 00:39 |
| FatalPriapism | they're both AMD...haven't seen anything of that liking in the utility so far :/ | 00:40 |
| PatrickDickey | Under Display Manager (on the left), and Multiple Displays, do you have an option there? Mine says Single Display (Multiple Desktops) but I only have one monitor hooked up. | 00:41 |

| PatrickDickey | passed ;) | 00:43 |
| FatalPriapism | yeah, but unfortunately it only allows for multi display with other monitors on the adapter | 00:43 |
| PatrickDickey | FatalPriapism: can you modify your X.Org configuration to do it? (I'm not sure if it's possible, but it's a suggestion) | 00:47 |
| FatalPriapism | Took a look at it, nothing that outwardly suggests it would do any good | 00:49 |

| daftykins | phillyj: what's happening? also there are xbmc channels :( | 01:06 |
| phillyj | usr13: i think i'm having some driver issues on my video card | 01:06 |
| usr13 | phillyj: (It is probably best to fix what you have.) | 01:06 |
| phillyj | daftykins: whats the xbmc channel? | 01:06 |
| daftykins | phillyj: are you getting a black screen trying livecd mode? | 01:07 |
| usr13 | phillyj: What does lspci say about it? | 01:07 |
| usr13 | phillyj: The xbmc channel is #xbmmc | 01:09 |
| usr13 | phillyj: The xbmc channel is #xbmc | 01:09 |
| phillyj | daftykins: well, i can load up the ubuntu part of xbmcbuntu but the xmbc goes into a loop at the splash screen | 01:10 |
| phillyj | usr13: i haven't tried lspci yet and i'm too tired to do it now; been at it all day | 01:11 |
| daftykins | phillyj: source ISO downloaded ok? 12.2 for your appropriate graphics brand yes? | 01:11 |
| phillyj | daftykins: yes, it has catalyst driver (is amd specific version iso) | 01:11 |
| daftykins | ugh AMD land | 01:12 |
| phillyj | yea | 01:12 |
| daftykins | phillyj: you should install, SSH in, fully update + upgrade | 01:12 |
| daftykins | then try | 01:12 |
| daftykins | then reinstall the latest catalyst if it's old | 01:12 |
| phillyj | ehat do you mean by fully update? | 01:12 |

| dr_willis | !nounity | 01:19 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 01:19 |
| xvicarious | I'm having problems with boot repair. I have the paste here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5998021/ | 01:20 |
| hylian | dr_willis: Xubuntu 12.04 lts 64 bit | 01:20 |
| dr_willis | hylian: as far as i know you need the latest gnome shell ppa. but that may not work for 12.04 | 01:21 |
| xavier23 | HI! I've got 6.0 LTS installed, need to upgrade to 12.04 | 01:21 |
| xavier23 | Any ideas? | 01:21 |
| xavier23 | Using ssh | 01:21 |
| dr_willis | xavier23: do a clean install instead | 01:21 |
| hylian | dr_willis: i know i can install gnome 3, and one of the options will then be gnome 3 classic. (Without adding any ppa's), but I want to be as light as I can with the installation of the non-light gnome 3. | 01:21 |
| dr_willis | hylian: no idea if thats possible. its like a theme for gnome shell i thought | 01:22 |
| dr_willis | !eol | 01:23 |

| hylian | dr_willis: i don't know. I am confused as to what is and what isn't actually gnome 3. It looks like gnome 3, acts like gnome 3, and has the options of gnome classuc, and gnome classic with no visual extras, which is pretty light then. | 01:24 |
| dr_willis | hylian: as far as i know the latest 3.8 gnome shell has the new official gnome2 look. earler gnome 3 you had to use one of the fallback modes. | 01:25 |
| dr_willis | if i want old looks.. i use lubuntu. :) | 01:25 |
| PatrickDickey | Gnome 3 dropped the "look", and went back to the Gnome 2 look? Or it's just a shell for it? | 01:26 |
| hylian | dr_willis: hmm, well when i install gnome-shell here, I get the gnome 3 look, and the pseudo gnome 2 +/- graphical extras option... so... | 01:26 |
| dr_willis | PatrickDickey: like a theme/option | 01:26 |
| PatrickDickey | Ahhh ok | 01:26 |
| dr_willis | hylian: and what gnome versiin is it | 01:26 |
| * PatrickDickey uses Lubuntu also, so I don't see all of that stuff anymore | 01:27 | |
| hylian | dr_willis: according to it's man pages, 3. | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | i imagine when 3.8 gets common the other ways to get a gnome 2 look will die off. | 01:27 |
| wilee-nilee | PatrickDickey, Its like the modern version of fords Thunderbird, its not the real thing. ;) | 01:28 |
| dr_willis | hylian: i think you must use a 3.8 ppa for the gnome official g2 look/method/tgeme | 01:28 |
| hylian | dr_willis: i have seen screen shots of gnome 3, and this is a dead ringer. so either it is gnome 2 dressed to look the gnome 3 part, or it's gnome 3. (and i was informed that 12.04 did not have a ppa for gnome 2 at all, so this would have to be 3, wouldn't it?) | 01:28 |
| PatrickDickey | wilee-nilee: Kind of like how my PT Cruiser is the modern "Woody" but it's not the same thing. | 01:28 |
| wilee-nilee | you got it. ;) | 01:28 |
| dr_willis | hylian: theres several ways to get a g2 look | 01:28 |
| dr_willis | cladsic. fallback. then the official g3.8 way | 01:29 |
| hylian | dr_willis: yes, this I know. My question was how can I do the most minimalistic install of gnome 3 possible. since the download size was only slightly over 30 meg, I think i found it. Installing gnome-shell now. | 01:29 |
| hylian | dr_willis: actually, if I wanted the g2 look, I would never had logged on. (I'm an Xubuntu user, remember?) ;) | 01:30 |
| hylian | xfce does an awesom g2 impersonation, dr_willis. | 01:31 |
| dr_willis | i cant eben remember my own name half the time | 01:31 |
| dr_willis | i dont use xfce. so no idea | 01:31 |
| dr_willis | unity. gnome shell or lxde is wgat i use | 01:32 |
| hylian | dr_willis: no biggie. what I am trying to accomplish is the lcars look, for which i need the dreaded gnome. | 01:32 |
| dr_willis | i dont really need gnome2 | 01:32 |
| hylian | dr_willis: that's good, because you can't get it. neither can i in 12.04 land. | 01:32 |
| dr_willis | :) i dont really tweak things much any more either | 01:32 |
| dr_willis | a gnome2 theme may ro may not work in tge gnome2 look aluke mides | 01:33 |
| hylian | dr_willis: well I wanted to say thank you, you are always very helpful doc! Thanks again. Ima go make my linux box look like lcars because I am an encourageable star trek geek. bye! | 01:33 |

| reddeath68 | I am running 13.04 and am looking to find detailed specs for my motherboard in an attempt to find compatible hardware upgrades. I also was wondering is it possible to switch from 32 bit to 64 bit os of ubuntu? | 01:37 |
| Marlenee | reisio : so how can i add user with full permission like root ?? | 01:37 |
| reisio | Marlenee: no need to add one, as root already exists | 01:38 |
| wilee-nilee | Marlenee, The add user gui has a admin option for the new user. | 01:39 |
| Marlenee | i need to add one for learning | 01:39 |
| dr_willis | give the user sudo rights you mean? | 01:40 |
| dr_willis | put them in the admin group i belive | 01:40 |
| reddeath68 | I am running 13.04 and am looking to find detailed specs for my motherboard in an attempt to find compatible hardware upgrades. I also was wondering is it possible to switch from 32 bit to 64 bit os of ubuntu? | 01:41 |
| reisio | reddeath68: the sanest way to switch is to reinstall | 01:42 |
| reisio | that goes for any OS | 01:42 |
| dr_willis | tou don't convert a 32 bit ubuntu install to 64 bit | 01:42 |
| reisio | you could, but it'd take longer than "reinstalling" | 01:42 |
| dr_willis | !info hwinfo | 01:42 |

| KMo | apt-get upgrade is prompting me to choose which devices to install grub on - choices are sda sda1 dm-0 - i researched it and learned enough to know i could seriously wreck things if i pick incorrectly | 01:43 |
| reisio | course you can | 01:43 |
| reisio | it just takes longer, so it's not worth it | 01:43 |
| wilee-nilee | Marlenee, Do you have a install with a desktop and what release? | 01:43 |
| Ben64 | reisio: its just not possible | 01:43 |
| reisio | Ben64: of course it is | 01:44 |
| Ben64 | you can believe whatever you want, but its still not true | 01:44 |
| reisio | it's not a matter of belief :p | 01:44 |
| Marlenee | wilee-nilee: i install VERSION="12.04.2 LTS, Precise Pangolin" and it on ssh | 01:44 |
| reddeath68 | ok so what should i use to find the motherboard specs so I can check compatability for my system | 01:45 |
| KMo | anyone know what device i should choose for my apt-get upgrade? sda sda1 or dm-0 | 01:45 |
| reisio | reddeath68: you could try lshw, but cracking it open would be simpler IMO | 01:45 |
| reisio | KMo: how does the device factor into it? Boot loader? | 01:46 |
| wilee-nilee | Marlenee, Cool, just wondering with a standard desktop install the add user gui has a admin or standard option for new users, admin is sudo, I'm not familiar with ssh, my assumption is a cli access. | 01:46 |
| ttom | i believe PXE boot is brocken in ubuntu when there are 2 network interfaces on the client pc | 01:46 |
| reddeath68 | I was hoping to avoid shutting it down opening the case and combim over it.... o well guess I have no choice | 01:46 |
| KMo | sorry i missed part of the question. apt-get upgrade just upgraded grub2, now it's asking me which device to install GRUB on | 01:47 |
| Ben64 | reddeath68: well what do you need to know | 01:47 |
| reisio | reddeath68: what is it you're thinking of upgrading? | 01:47 |
| KMo | sda sda1 or dm-0 | 01:47 |
| reisio | KMo: ah | 01:47 |
| reisio | KMo: are you dual booting? | 01:47 |
| reisio | KMo: do you have more than one disk? | 01:47 |
| KMo | no | 01:47 |
| reisio | KMo: if no to bot, it'd be sda | 01:47 |
| reisio | to both* | 01:47 |
| KMo | its a hyper-v virtual server | 01:47 |
| reisio | :/ | 01:47 |
| reisio | still, sda | 01:47 |
| KMo | okay not dm-0 | 01:47 |
| KMo | obviously not sda1 | 01:48 |
| reisio | you'd probably know if it should be dm-0 | 01:48 |
| KMo | but i'm unsure about dm-0 | 01:48 |

| KM0201 | willybilly0101: ? say what? i think mean "KMo" (i'm km-zero) | 01:48 |
| Ben64 | reddeath68: you may want to ask in ##hardware | 01:48 |

| KMo | no, the ubuntu server is virtualized | 01:49 |
| hylian | dr_willis: ok, i found out two things, 1) I am using gnome 3, according to gnome-session --version, which returns "gnome-session 3.2.1"... and 2) is you where right, the lcars theme will not work with gnome 3. *sigh* oh well. :) | 01:49 |
| Ben64 | reddeath68: laptop or desktop | 01:49 |
| KMo | with a single virtual hard drive | 01:49 |
| wilee-nilee | KMo, no gpt uefi? | 01:49 |
| reddeath68 | I had come across crucial while researching but as I had never heard of them I wasnt sure about using them | 01:49 |
| reddeath68 | desktop | 01:49 |
| wilee-nilee | or raid | 01:50 |

| KMo | sorry Ben | 01:52 |
| reddeath68 | home built but not by me | 01:52 |
| reddeath68 | got for free back in 2006 so its a bit dated | 01:52 |
| PatrickDickey | reddeath68: Do you know the manufacturer and model number of the motherboard? That's what will determine what types and how much RAM you can use. | 01:52 |
| reddeath68 | for the age its not bad but with things constantly changing id like to do some upgrades | 01:53 |
| reddeath68 | especially since I keep having issues running occassionally i freeze and have to hard reboot or graphics crash | 01:53 |
| KMo | what exactly am i looking for in grub.cfg | 01:54 |
| KMo | This is one of the lines: linux /vmlinuz-3.2.0-45-generic root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--drupal-root ro | 01:54 |
| reisio | KMo: root= | 01:55 |
| reddeath68 | the video card is a nvidia geforce 9400 gt and from what I have seen this means major issues with ubuntu and stability which I have experinced first hand many times | 01:55 |
| KMo | dev/mapper/ubuntu--drupal-root is the name of the dm-0 device | 01:55 |
| reisio | KMo: but not that root= :) | 01:55 |
| reisio | KMo: look before that line for a 'root' | 01:55 |
| reisio | KMo: probably say something like 'hd0', maybe 'msdos1', etc. | 01:56 |
| reisio | KMo: if it's ordinary, anyways | 01:56 |
| KMo | set root='(ubuntu-drupal-root)' | 01:56 |
| KMo | i think its because this server was setup with LVM? | 01:56 |
| reisio | drupal? :p | 01:56 |
| * reisio shrugs | 01:56 | |
| Pinkie_Pylon | hello guys | 01:56 |
| KMo | its a ubuntu web server running drupal | 01:56 |
| reisio | I'd guess you want dm-0 at this point | 01:57 |
| reisio | if you grep it for 'ubuntu-drupal-root' it should be clear | 01:57 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | is anyone around to help a total noob like me? | 01:57 |
| KMo | okay | 01:57 |
| reisio | Pinkie_Pylon: mmmhmmm | 01:57 |
| KMo | the choice in the grub config is /dev/dm-0 (19050 MB; ubuntu--drupal-root) | 01:57 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | okay, i've just installed ubuntu and I am ahving two issues | 01:57 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | having* | 01:57 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | issue one is that I am using both my IGD and my graphics card to run a total of three monitors | 01:57 |
| KMo | so if root is currently that then i guess i keep it at that? | 01:58 |
| reisio | KMo: makes sense to me | 01:58 |
| KMo | thanks | 01:58 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | and when I tried booting into ubuntu it would only display the onboard monitor correctly, the other two would have flickering issues and a strange mouse tracing update issue | 01:58 |
| reisio | why it couldn't figure that out on its own... :p | 01:58 |
| KMo | i'll let you know if i blow something up. beautiful thing about hyper-v is i can snapshot the server before i do a reboot | 01:58 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | it's quite a silly setup | 01:59 |
| KMo | yeah really | 01:59 |
| reisio | well, that's the beautiful thing about virtualization | 01:59 |
| reisio | it just happens to be one thing that sometimes works with Hyper-V :p | 01:59 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | so does anyone know how I can fix it? | 02:00 |
| kasad | umh so, I have this laptop that already has ubuntu on it but I need to reinstall, I boot from cd and keyboard is not working so I can't even choose the language | 02:01 |
| KMo | i've never had a problem with it :p i have four linux servers running apache for drupal, apache for nagios, centos with elastix, and centos with GLPI. i snapshot them every time an upgrade looks even remotely out of the ordinary | 02:01 |
| kasad | any tips | 02:01 |
| kasad | ? | 02:01 |
| KMo | LOL okay its not happy "GRUB failed to install to the following devices: /dev/dm-0 Do you want to continue anyway? If you do, your computer may not start up properly." | 02:02 |
| KMo | going to try sda | 02:02 |
| KMo | hopefully it will be happy with that :S | 02:02 |
| KMo | it worked with sda not sure if it will work with a reboot but i'll try tonight when no one will be accessing the site | 02:04 |
| KMo | thanks for all your help | 02:04 |

| Ben64 | are you sure you have a webcam | 02:28 |
| cfhowlett | Kalel, try plugging into a different usb port. | 02:28 |

| Kalel | cfhowlett: ^ | 02:29 |
| Ben64 | but are you sure? my hp laptop has a little circle in the center on top where a webcam could have been, but there is not one | 02:29 |

| eropple | Hey there. I have an Ubuntu Server 13.04 machine with Linux softraid (known working) and I'm trying to use a RAID device as an LVM volume. It's being about as helpful as you'd expect; lvcreate is yelling at me about "Failed to wipe start of new LV." dmesg isn't showing anything interesting, even running lvcreate with -vvv it's not giving me any explicit clues as to what's going on, and Google isn't helping. Anybody have any suggestions? | 02:43 |

| xmetal | just out of curosity, i installed enlightenment after seeing it talked about yesterday in here... not bad at all | 02:48 |

| reisio | good wm back in the day, interesting DE at this point | 02:50 |
| sometwo | I am encountering stalls when doing a make check in a project located on a nfs share. strace shows the process being stuck on a read. wireshark shows an open operation followed by periodic renews, otherwise no action from the client. What is happening? | 02:52 |
| cfhowlett | sometwo, sounds like a good question for #ubuntu-server if no response here ... | 02:52 |
| sometwo | cfhowlett, oh? why? | 02:53 |
| cfhowlett | sometwo, most users in this channel are end-users and don't do things at the higher end like you ... plus that ntfs share | 02:55 |
| daftykins | nfs | 02:55 |
| daftykins | sometwo: you actually made my day, someone bright enough to do all the things i'd have tried first :( alas i know no more | 02:56 |
| sometwo | daftykins, hehe :( | 02:57 |
| PatrickDickey | Ahh Enlightenment. XFCE made more minimal (if I remember right). | 02:58 |
| daftykins | sometwo: able to try another protocol like CIFS? kinda avoids rather than targets the problem but i don't know :( | 02:58 |
| PatrickDickey | sometwo does it have to be made on the nfs share, or could you copy the source to a local drive? | 02:59 |
| xmetal | i am not a fan of these DE's that seem to be getting more and more bloated ... i wanted to give it a try | 02:59 |
| xmetal | thats why i like XFCE ... light | 03:00 |
| reisio | 'Xfce' | 03:00 |
| sometwo | daftykins, yeah, I have an CIFS share too, it is working well on this machine. I have other clients that seems to have no issues with nfs | 03:00 |
| * PatrickDickey has tried XFCE, LXDE (lubuntu), Enlightenment... For some reason LXDE stuck, where I gave up on the others. | 03:00 | |
| sometwo | PatrickDickey, yeah, that thought has crossed my mind. | 03:00 |
| sometwo | PatrickDickey, but then I thought, this should be working. | 03:01 |
| Marlenee | iam adding ssh key to my ssh so i can connect from any where with my public key but its not login and keep asking me about password | 03:01 |
| waterlite | hi all | 03:01 |
| cfhowlett | waterlite, greetings | 03:02 |
| waterlite | how are you ? | 03:02 |
| PatrickDickey | I've actually heard that doing things via nfs is more difficult than cifs/samba. I can't exactly remember what the issue was, but it was recommended to go the cifs/samba route. Especially when mounting shares. | 03:02 |
| PatrickDickey | Marlenee: Are you creating a ssh key for one of your computers, so you can log into it from others, or are you trying to upload the key to launchpad (or another site)? | 03:03 |
| Marlenee | PatrickDickey :yes = ssh-keygen -t rsa then cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | 03:04 |
| PatrickDickey | Marlenee: That creates the public key on your computer. What do you want to do with it though? (Log into your computer from somewhere else, or upload it to launchpad or another site)? | 03:06 |
| babinlonston | Error While Setting SSL Cetificate | 03:07 |
| xmetal | back to the DE topic for a second, i do have my preferences, though I do not like one over another.. I just am open to trying ones i never heard of before | 03:07 |
| sometwo | PatrickDickey, I think I have managed to get most "difficult" things sorted out with my nfs setup. nfsv4, ldap, krb5 och zfs | 03:07 |
| PatrickDickey | sometwo: I have to agree with cfhowlett though. #ubuntu-server is probably a better place to ask about issues with nfs. They deal more with things like that than we would. | 03:09 |
| Marlenee | PatrickDickey : i do this step then after that i add this key in my firend ssh server so i can conncet to his servr from my server via this command = ssh root@xxx.xx.xxx | 03:09 |
| Senjai | Marlenee: use ssh-copy-id -i /link_to/key root@xx.xx.xx | 03:10 |
| PatrickDickey | Marlenee: The first time you do that (ssh root@xxx.xx.xx) it should prompt you with his public key fingerprint, and ask if you want to save that. Select "yes" and it should work. To my knowledge though, you'll always have to supply the root password (or your password). | 03:10 |
| Senjai | PatrickDickey: no, the whole point of ssh keys is so you dont have to enter credentials when you ssh in | 03:11 |
| PatrickDickey | Marlenee: going on what Senjai just said, you can use scp also. | 03:11 |
| Marlenee | yes it ask me to save the key and i said yes | 03:12 |
| Marlenee | i make it before but i generate new key and its faild to login | 03:12 |
| PatrickDickey | Hmmmm... I think I'll be storing this topic for future reference. I've got two computers that I log in on, and this would make life a bit easier. | 03:13 |
| itgold | hello everybody | 03:13 |
| daftykins | hi | 03:13 |
| itgold | how to create two identical partitions in ubuntu? | 03:13 |
| itgold | gparted doesn't give me exact numbers | 03:13 |
| reisio | itgold: why identical? | 03:14 |
| reisio | daftykins: heyo | 03:14 |
| itgold | I want to put them into the raid-1 | 03:14 |
| daftykins | reisio: hi sir | 03:15 |
| itgold | so they have to be exactly same size | 03:15 |
| reisio | I don't know about that :) | 03:15 |
| reisio | probably want lvm anyways, though | 03:15 |
| daftykins | ugh never partition RAID-1 | 03:15 |
| daftykins | that defeats the purpose of RAID-1 | 03:15 |
| itgold | ? | 03:16 |
| itgold | I need those partitions on different drives | 03:16 |
| PatrickDickey | itgold: I think daftykins means because if the drive goes bad, you lose everything anyhow. | 03:16 |
| daftykins | so you're gonna mirror between two partitions on the same drive? | 03:16 |
| daftykins | oh | 03:16 |
| daftykins | itgold: so what are you doing? two partitions on two disks? | 03:17 |
| itgold | right | 03:17 |
| itgold | disks I have a different in size and one of them partially used by swap | 03:17 |
| daftykins | oh that's a disaster waiting to happen | 03:18 |
| Marlenee | PatrickDickey : any idea | 03:18 |
| PatrickDickey | itgold, in Gparted, you can click on one of the partitions, and choose Modify/Resize. It will show you the current sizes (beginning and end blocks). Then you click on the other partition, and make sure the size is the same (not so much the same numbers, but the same amount of space between them). | 03:18 |
| itgold | interesting, thank you PatrickDickey | 03:19 |
| itgold | let me give it a try | 03:19 |
| PatrickDickey | itgold make sure you cancel without changing anything on the first modify though. | 03:19 |
| itgold | sure | 03:20 |
| sometwo | PatrickDickey, daftykins, Apparently I should have run dmesg. CacheFiles: Error: Overlong wait for old active object to go away. Apparently it is related to the file caching I activated yesterday in an attempt to resolve some latency issues. | 03:22 |
| daftykins | sometwo: ooh, interesting, thanks | 03:23 |

| holstein | girvo: then, trade it | 04:37 |
| holstein | girvo: you'll edit a config file.. | 04:37 |
| girvo | holstein: I'm trying to haha. but defaulting to powersave governor while not on AC drops it to 0.78ghz (turbo mode), and no config files that I've found will let me change what the lowest freq is. | 04:38 |
| girvo | holstein: I think thats because it's pulling it from hardware, not config, but I'll keep looking | 04:38 |
| holstein | girvo: you havent fund it, but its there | 04:39 |

| dotty_the_hamste | Hello, I've forgotten my admin password. Is there a way to recover it? | 04:48 |

| holstein | dotty_the_hamste: http://askubuntu.com/questions/24006/how-do-i-reset-a-lost-administrative-password | 04:48 |

| holstein | girvo: its all open.. so it *will* work out.. | 04:49 |
| girvo | holstein: True that! :) | 04:49 |
| dotty_the_hamste | holstein: i tried pressing the left shift key but nothing happens and it boots normally | 04:49 |
| girvo | holstein: One of the many reasons I've used linux for over 10 years now, it lets me do this sort of stuff without fighting me ;) | 04:49 |
| holstein | dotty_the_hamste: the settings are in grub.. you'll need to make them "show"... you can maybe edit the grub config from a live CD to make the options show | 04:50 |
| dotty_the_hamste | how do i do that? | 04:50 |
| Rexodus | Tried that with my phone. 50MHz under the minimum clock, strange things start happening.. | 04:51 |
| holstein | dotty_the_hamste: do what? when i press shift is shows grub.. and if it doesnt, i press other keys til it does.. you are likely not hitting it at the proper time | 04:51 |
| holstein | dotty_the_hamste: otherwise, you load a live CD, and edit the grub config to show the grub.. or, grab the data, and reinstall... | 04:51 |
| Rexodus | sry. Wrong channel... | 04:52 |
| dotty_the_hamste | i tried using a live cd to grab the data, but it is failing to mount my drives | 04:52 |
| dr_willis_ | press and hold left shift | 04:52 |
| holstein | dotty_the_hamste: sounds to me you have other problems.. ike a failing hard drive or file system | 04:53 |
| dr_willis_ | you used encrytped homes dotty_the_hamste ? | 04:53 |
| dotty_the_hamste | dr_willis_: yes | 04:53 |

| k0d3r | I cant remember a command! please help! | 05:14 |
| smaudet | So I'm having disk 'thrashing' if you will - every so often about a gig or so of data is being written, and then erased, from my hdd. Any idea what thismight be? | 05:14 |
| smaudet | its not my /tmp directory | 05:15 |
| k0d3r | basically I want all combinations for a given set of characters. for example "command asdf" would result: asdf asfd adsf afds... etc | 05:16 |
| k0d3r | I just cannot remember the command! | 05:16 |
| k0d3r | and I have no idea how to google this | 05:17 |
| smaudet | k0d3r: don't google it then | 05:18 |
| smaudet | info bash -> ^s -> search for permutations | 05:18 |
| smaudet | it exists, I believe you, I've used it before too | 05:19 |
| k0d3r | smaudet: shuf | 05:21 |
| dotty_the_hamste | ok, so i was able to reset the password with the passwd command but when i try entering it on the login screen, the screen goes black for a second and then returns back to the login screen | 05:21 |
| dotty_the_hamste | why is this happening? | 05:21 |
| k0d3r | smaudet: it could not be more obvious! :D | 05:21 |
| smaudet | k0d3r: echo {a..d}{a..d} will do what you want, although it can't do arbitrary sequences | 05:26 |
| smaudet | k0d3r: also shuf doesn't seem to work for me | 05:36 |
| smaudet | I figured it out but the bash is pretty arcane | 05:36 |
| smaudet | Its a 3 step process | 05:37 |

| Vlyn | Good morning everyone | 08:54 |
| Vlyn | I just installed Ubuntu 13.04 (64-bit) besides Windows 7 and every time I log into Ubuntu about half a minute later the whole system freezes. Sometimes I can still move the mouse, sometimes not even that is possible. Only thing to do then is a hard reboot. I have no clue why that happens, this PC used Ubuntu flawlessly about 2 years ago in the same setup. | 08:56 |
| wilee-nilee | Vlyn, Just in ubuntu? | 08:57 |
| Vlyn | Well, I strangely had the same problem with my live USB stick. But just in Ubuntu | 08:58 |
| Vlyn | For example: Xubuntu is fine | 08:58 |
| wilee-nilee | Vlyn, Never in windows? | 08:58 |
| Vlyn | Lol, no, never | 08:58 |
| Vlyn | It's just in Ubuntu. Log in, 20-30 seconds later dead | 08:59 |
| wilee-nilee | Vlyn, that may seem funny, but ruling out hardware is like real important. | 08:59 |
| Vlyn | The strange thing is: I already ran Ubuntu without problems on this PC and it's not old hardware (i7 2600K, Geforce GTX 580, 8 GB Ram) | 09:00 |

| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: to slice video's in parts? | 09:10 |
| dr_willis | trim the ends and cut out commercials. :) | 09:10 |
| dr_willis | got. 'vidtrim' on android. that does the job OK. | 09:11 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: vlc can record the part of the movie you need aswell | 09:11 |

| dr_willis | easially | 09:12 |
| dr_willis | been using avidemux | 09:13 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: yes i know, play the video with vlc and hit the record button where you wanna start cut | 09:13 |
| Vlyn | Welp, no help here it seems. I'll just try to start into the console and get the nvidia driver, maybe that's the problem | 09:14 |

| Vlyn | ffs! The problem was the open source graphics driver | 10:01 |
| Vlyn | Well and of course it froze again mid install of the proprietary one, I got it but my window manager is broken xD | 10:01 |
| [Gentoo] | Carlos_Safety: have you ever tried uzbl? thats a good keyboard based browser too | 10:01 |
| Carlos_Safety | [Gentoo]: i'll check it our but because vim and vimiun... its so awesome. but what does that use to mapkeys? | 10:02 |
| Gr3mlin | anyone any good with connecting to ubuntu via OpenSSH and dealt with "Server refused our key" issues? | 10:02 |

| Gr3mlin | just sudo rm -rv /* is that bad? | 10:16 |
| Orlu | the mouse cursor doesnt respond, sometimes after like 3-4 minutes it will move a little bit but then re-freezes, i tried numerous times looking it up on numerous sites but i cant seem to find a answer, can someone help me out here? =[ | 10:16 |

| MonkeyDust | Gr3mlin if you're not sure, then don't do it | 10:16 |
| Vlyn | Orlu: Right after start? | 10:17 |
| Vlyn | Or just general workflow? | 10:17 |
| lotuspsychje | Orlu: how about you look in your logs for errors and pastebin them | 10:17 |
| Gr3mlin | MonkeyDust: ;) im sure! ;D i did it out of frustration. | 10:17 |
| Orlu | lotuspsychje: ofcourse, that would be good to do but thats the whole problem :( as soon as i try to do anything it freezes so i cant even navigate to the logs =[ | 10:18 |
| Vlyn | Btw. it's a joke that a GTX 580 is not supported by the "Nouveau" display driver. | 10:18 |
| Vlyn | Orlu: Display driver problem, just had it myself | 10:18 |
| Vlyn | Does it freeze right after login? | 10:18 |
| anonee | hello room, I know this is not the right place to ask this but I thought that maybe somebody can redirect me to the best place where I can work it out, I have a 256GB SSD and suddenly it shows as 2GB, it's a combo it can be connected through USB or SATA, and it shows as 2GB in both cases, any help would be highly appreciated. | 10:18 |
| Vlyn | About 30-60 seconds in? | 10:18 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: well it doesnt freeze if i keep it the way it is after boot, as soon as i start to do something it freezes | 10:18 |
| Vlyn | Yeah, sounds like my problem | 10:19 |
| Vlyn | The Nouveau display driver is a piece of… | 10:19 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: lolz i can imagine ;p | 10:19 |
| Vlyn | Now you only need to try to install the proprietary nvidia driver | 10:19 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: but how can i replace it if the terminal also causes it to freeze? o.O | 10:19 |
| Vlyn | My first time around it froze during install, ugh | 10:19 |
| themanwithnoface | ok every time i quickly adjust my brightness on ubuntu via the F' keys , ubuntu freezes fatally. i have to hard reboot, any one have this? | 10:19 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: argh, didnt have that one occur tho | 10:19 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: did yours also freeze when trying ubuntu from bootable? | 10:20 |
| Vlyn | Orlu: Nah driver install | 10:20 |
| Vlyn | Not Ubuntu install | 10:20 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: ah, right :o | 10:20 |
| themanwithnoface | also for linux what's the protocol for freezes, how bad is a hard reboot? what can u do on ubuntu besides hard reboot? | 10:20 |
| Vlyn | Well, I managed to install the driver with a try and error shotgun method. Kill Xorg, mess things up and then I had a half installed nvidia driver and a broken Unity xD | 10:21 |
| Vlyn | It works now but that was chaos :-( | 10:21 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: i hope you dont mind me asking this, im new to ubuntu, how would i install new drivers? | 10:21 |
| Vlyn | okay, as soon as it starts hit the unity… how's it called? main button? | 10:21 |
| Vlyn | search for software & updates (do it fast before it freezes) | 10:21 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: lol i can imagine, i'm quite determined to get this to work so let me have it ;p | 10:21 |
| Vlyn | then the last tab is "additional drivers" | 10:21 |
| Vlyn | select one fron NVIDIA | 10:22 |
| Vlyn | forget about the version, the first install will kill itself (stupid freeze) | 10:22 |

| ubottu | Orlu: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Vlyn: for every trouble there's a solution... | 10:23 |
| Vlyn | Of course there is | 10:23 |
| Orlu | lotuspsychje: ofcourse, thats certainly true but sometimes you'd rather have it work from boot rather than troubleshoot for 10 hours straight ;p | 10:23 |
| MonkeyDust | it's a matter of getting familiae | 10:23 |
| Vlyn | But if the standard driver (Nouveau) lets my system freeze on a Geforce GTX 580 then something is totally wrong | 10:23 |
| MonkeyDust | familiar* | 10:23 |
| Vlyn | A new linux user won't know how to fix that | 10:24 |
| Vlyn | Also this is new, I never had this problem before on the same PC with Ubuntu | 10:24 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: lol oke now im convinced we have the same problem, i run a GTX 580 too ;d | 10:24 |
| Vlyn | rofl | 10:24 |
| lotuspsychje | Vlyn: on what ubuntu version are you? | 10:24 |
| Vlyn | 13.04 I think, the newest one | 10:24 |
| Vlyn | And the problem was Nouveau, with the NVIDIA driver it works | 10:24 |
| Orlu | so Vlyn did you get it to work? is it stable now? | 10:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Vlyn: you got same issue on 12.04 LTS? | 10:25 |
| Vlyn | Didn't try but I think so, the standard driver lets it freeze | 10:25 |
| Vlyn | Well I tried with a live usb stick | 10:25 |
| Vlyn | But not full install | 10:25 |
| Vlyn | Orlu: It runs | 10:25 |
| Orlu | hold on, coming on android so i can stay on, rofl ;p | 10:26 |
| Vlyn | Yeah, good idea :D | 10:26 |
| Vlyn | Orlu: My method of installing is not really a nice one (because it will freeze *sigh*) but the only one I know how to do | 10:26 |
| Orlu | oh btw, i dont mean to troll or anything but, what is the difference between 13.04 and 13.10 other than the GUI? | 10:27 |
| Orlu | Vlyn: np mate, aslong as it gets the job done i'll vote you for president! rofl | 10:27 |
| Vlyn | Orlu: So when Ubuntu starts, login, go to the main button, search for software, go to last tab (prop. drivers), select an NVIDIA driver, hit Apply Changes, put in your password and let it install | 10:27 |

| Vlyn | Orlu_: It should now work without freezing ^^ | 10:39 |
| MonkeyDust | isasha reset password? new password? to do what? | 10:39 |
| Vlyn | Then you can maybe look at the driver versions and install the newest one or the stable one (if you selected per random) | 10:39 |
| isasha | so that I can login… I couldn't login with my existing password | 10:39 |
| MonkeyDust | isasha and you're sure the password was the issue? | 10:40 |
| Orlu_ | Vlyn: it froze, so to check drivers i search for software again? | 10:40 |

| bekks | isasha: Why? | 10:41 |
| Vlyn | Orlu_: Hmm… well yeah, Software & Updates, last tab | 10:41 |
| isasha | but for some reason, the keyboard input was very slow and the mouse didn't respond | 10:41 |
| isasha | so maybe I just broke something :/ | 10:41 |
| bekks | isasha: Did you investigate the .xsession-errors and the other logs too? | 10:41 |
| isasha | nop | 10:41 |
| MonkeyDust | isasha was num lock active whan you entered the password? was shift lock not active? | 10:41 |
| isasha | caps lock definitely off, i don't have a numlock key on my keyboard | 10:42 |

| isasha | regardless it would have told me if that was the case, no? | 10:42 |

| bekks | zetheroo1: It was a timeout on mounting the network share. | 11:19 |
| MonkeyDust | zetheroo1 the dvd rip is using a lot of mem, i guess | 11:20 |
| zetheroo1 | bekks: the nautilus window still shows the share highlighted ... like it's still trying to mount it ... | 11:20 |
| bekks | zetheroo1: Then its a timeout on mounting. | 11:20 |
| jrib | mcnesium: socket. See « info ls » | 11:21 |
| zetheroo1 | can I kill whatever process is causing nautilus to hang? | 11:21 |
| bekks | zetheroo1: The process is nautilus. | 11:21 |
| zetheroo1 | bekks: but I cannot find a process called nautilus running | 11:21 |

| entreri | how i install gnome 3 ? | 12:12 |
| bekks | z8z: Define "internal vm access" first. | 12:12 |
| wiak | z8z well localhost is no security risk | 12:13 |
| z8z | bekks: i explained.... why a VM can access physical localhost? | 12:14 |
| sinkensabe | JoTraGo: looks good thanks | 12:14 |

| z8z | wiak: well i can see many security issue on that.... i have apache configured to surf webfolders and an infected VM can access those | 12:15 |
| === Guest35605 is now known as AndroidOS | ||
| bekks | z8z: With having correct permissions on your webserver, no "surfer" can access the files due to read-only access. | 12:16 |
| z8z | bekks: so having physical machine visible from outside without a firewall checking is fair? | 12:17 |
| bekks | z8z: The vm is just another box on your local LAN - so it can see whatever other boxes can see. | 12:18 |
| z8z | bekks: my webfolder is properly configured but in order to have a confortable usage for development testing some of the option are activated | 12:18 |
| z8z | bekks: nope other pc in lan can see my pc trough the firewall... VM is direct access to localhost | 12:19 |
| bekks | z8z: Then setup a firewall rule if you are uncomfortable with it. | 12:19 |
| usr13 | z8z: It is normal to have direct access to localhost | 12:20 |
| z8z | bekks: of course i have already done but my point was about a noob user installing the package and being exposed without knowing it | 12:20 |
| usr13 | z8z: But... not sure what "direct access to localhost" really means ;) | 12:21 |

| bekks | z8z: Please explain "direct vm access to localhost" again - what exactly are you doing in your guest to access the host's localhost? | 12:22 |
| jhonnyboii | where is transmission stored in filesystem? | 12:22 |
| usr13 | jhonnyboii: /usr/bin/firefox | 12:22 |
| usr13 | jhonnyboii: ( which firefox ) | 12:23 |
| usr13 | jhonnyboii: "transmission"? | 12:23 |
| z8z | usr13: a shared folder of local area network can be seen from outside | 12:23 |
| jhonnyboii | in my home folder its not a folder called bin | 12:23 |
| bekks | z8z: A shared folder is considered to be seen. Otherwise it wouldnt be shared. | 12:23 |
| usr13 | z8z: It is your LAN, configure it as *you* see fit. | 12:24 |
| z8z | bekks: a shared folder in local lan is supposed to be seen by local computer not entire world | 12:25 |
| usr13 | z8z: Define "shared folder". | 12:25 |
| z8z | usr13: ????? a samba shared folder? | 12:26 |
| bekks | z8z: A shared folder is considered to be seen as *you* configure it. If you configure it to be seen by everyone - thats how it is seen then. | 12:26 |
| ikonia | define "the whole world" | 12:26 |
| mainmeister | Most NAT routers will block lan access through the LAN port | 12:26 |
| mainmeister | sorry WAN port | 12:26 |
| bekks | z8z: And vbox does not use samba shared folders at all. | 12:26 |

| bekks | z8z: Then rephrase it please. | 12:27 |
| ikonia | z8z: explain clearly | 12:27 |
| mainmeister | logical: is your router set up to broadcast it's SSID? | 12:27 |
| z8z | bekks: ok i'll try again.... i have 2 pc in local lan and i want to do my own business inside of it | 12:27 |
| logical_ | mainmeister: i dont know what does that mean xD, yesterday i reinstalled ubuntu on my pc, before that my wireless worked perfectly | 12:28 |
| z8z | bekks: so i just share a folder trough samba to be seen by the other pc restricted to local network | 12:28 |
| ikonia | z8z: ok, so what's the problem ? | 12:28 |
| logical_ | it is not a problem with the router | 12:29 |
| z8z | z8z: even because i'm behind a router without any NAT configured | 12:29 |
| OnkelTem | How can I add all standard ubuntu settings to System Settings? Currently I have only 4-5 icons there. No sound, no display preferences - nothing | 12:29 |
| bekks | z8z: Ok, so when does the problem you are talking about arises? | 12:29 |
| OnkelTem | What can I install to populate System Settings? | 12:30 |
| z8z | ikonia: so i open a VM which can be infected and that VM can read local samba shared folder because having direct access to localhost bypass router of course | 12:30 |
| mainmeister | logical: the WIFI uses a protocol that allows discovery of local connection points using a method where each access point openly broadcasts it's name (SSID). For security reasons you can disable the SSID broadcast on the router. | 12:30 |
| logical_ | ok i will try to connect to router to check that | 12:30 |
| usr13 | z8z: "infected"? Can you restate that last post? | 12:30 |
| bekks | z8z: Which networking mode do you use in the vm settings? | 12:30 |
| ikonia | z8z: do you mean your vbox guest can access the samba share on the physical host ? | 12:30 |
| z8z | ikonia: yes | 12:31 |
| mainmeister | logical: this would be set in the router on it's WIFI settings web page. | 12:31 |
| ikonia | z8z: ok - so that is because YOU have bridged the VM to your local network | 12:31 |
| z8z | usr13: yes infected because i use it to test software which contains keygen and other so will be sure infected or soon | 12:31 |
| ikonia | z8z: that is still private on your local LAN - and going no-where else | 12:31 |
| ikonia | another guy and "wares" pathetic | 12:32 |
| ikonia | at that point, I'm out | 12:32 |
| bekks | And that behaviour is intended for bridging, according to chapter 6 of the vbox manual. | 12:32 |
| bekks | bridging means: "make this vm behave like another computer in the local LAN of the host". | 12:32 |
| logical_ | mainmeister: Hide SSID is set to No | 12:32 |
| z8z | ikonia: what do you mean? | 12:32 |
| bekks | Obviously, it can access everything in the local LAN just like every other box in the local LAN. | 12:32 |
| ikonia | z8z: you're testing illegal keygen/wares | 12:32 |
| z8z | ikonia: wares what? | 12:32 |
| z8z | ikonia: yes | 12:33 |
| bekks | z8z: Did you read my last posts. | 12:33 |
| ikonia | z8z: yes, so I'm not refusing to help any more as I'm not helping you with illegal wares/keygens | 12:33 |
| ikonia | buy the software - then you don't need illegal keygens | 12:33 |
| logical_ | mainmeister: the wireless was working perfectly 1 day ago, before I Reinstalled ubuntu... | 12:33 |
| z8z | ikonia: ???? are you ok? | 12:34 |
| logical_ | When i reinstalled ubuntu the wireless card was not working i had to set my wifi card mannually to work | 12:34 |
| ikonia | z8z: I'm fine | 12:34 |
| bekks | z8z: Did you read my last posts about bridging in vbox? | 12:34 |
| z8z | bekks: yes i'm making some tests now thanks | 12:34 |
| mainmeister | logical: well, that's all I can think of that would hide the SSID from showing up on your list of available connection points. I guess it could be buggy WIFI driver code for the WIFI adapter you are using. Any chance you can try a different WIFI adapter (different manufacturer/chipset)? | 12:35 |
| z8z | ikonia: look like you are in anger with like :D | 12:35 |
| bekks | z8z: You should read chapter 6 of the vbox manual, instead of testing. | 12:35 |

| logical_ | how do i remmeber last time i had this problem i just put in some code in terminal for the wifi driver card to be non propiratery or something like that | 12:37 |
| usr13 | z8z: Again, it is *your* LAN, configure it as *you* see fit. What you describe are network issues. Your concerns may be legitimate but they are simply network issues. Network security is up to the sysop, if you are the sysop, look into installing a firewall that will give you the protection you need. You might also ask a few questions on ##networking | 12:37 |
| z8z | bekks: i use linux since 15 years and dunno what's wrong with you if i download small tools to give to some people i know that need to use one in life | 12:38 |

| johnd_ | Hi. Networking question. I'm not massively confident configuring my system's network, and I'd like to re-run that helpful wizard that you get at startup. Is this possible? I'm accessing via serial port so no GUI. | 12:42 |
| usr13 | jubei: xrandr | 12:42 |
| johnd_ | the wizard you get at installation I mean | 12:42 |
| jubei | user, xrandr also only shows 2 modes | 12:42 |
| jubei | usr13, * | 12:42 |
| ikonia | jubei: you may have to force or hardcode it's resolution if it's not offering the right info bia edid | 12:42 |
| usr13 | jubei: Or, if you have a GUI app, use it. | 12:42 |
| jubei | usr13, the gui app of ubuntu only shows those two modes soo.. I need to somehow force the new mode | 12:43 |
| usr13 | jubei: You will not force a new mode. See xrandr | 12:43 |
| usr13 | jubei: xrandr will show you all available screen size options. | 12:44 |
| BluesKaj | johnd_, that wizard is a gui , afaik | 12:44 |
| johnd_ | BluesKaj: there's one that uses curses | 12:45 |
| usr13 | jubei: (But xrandr more-than-likely will not show you any more than the GUI app.) | 12:45 |
| z8z | bekks: anyway it was amazing how upset everyone became just because once after 10 years i'm doing a favor to my friend testing for him an app and found this issue just installing VM | 12:45 |

| gitesh | How do I play with PL/SQL on Ubuntu? | 13:00 |
| ikonia | install pl/sql client and then connect to an oracle database | 13:01 |
| BluesKaj | widad, looks l;ike the software center has an issue , try synaptic instead | 13:01 |
| blazemore | gitesh: Install a local SQL server | 13:01 |
| widad | BluesKaj, synaptic? what's that? | 13:02 |
| BluesKaj | widad, it's a package manager | 13:02 |
| BluesKaj | !synaptic | widad | 13:02 |
| ubottu | widad: A Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 13:02 |
| gitesh | where is local sql server for Ubuntu? | 13:02 |
| widad | is it preinstalled on ubuntu? | 13:02 |
| blazemore | gitesh: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/mysql.html | 13:03 |
| blazemore | widad: No, it used to be, but it's not any more | 13:03 |
| bekks | gitesh: You have to installl one. mysql, postgresql, etc. | 13:03 |
| widad | so i have to download it | 13:03 |
| BluesKaj | widad, it's in the repositories , sudo apt-get install synaptic | 13:03 |
| gitesh | and what about PL/SQL? because it's mysql,postgre, etc. | 13:03 |
| ikonia | gitesh: they don't use pl/sql | 13:04 |
| ikonia | you really need an oracle database to use pl/sql | 13:04 |
| bekks | postgres implemented pl/sql too. | 13:04 |
| widad | BluesKaj, thanks | 13:04 |
| ikonia | bekks: I though pssql was different from pl/sql | 13:04 |
| ikonia | I thought it was a subset | 13:04 |
| bekks | ikonia: with 8.1 at least, they implemented a subset. | 13:05 |
| blazemore | gitesh: You could take a look at this, which I found by Googling "PL/ SQL Ubuntu" http://mikesmithers.wordpress.com/2011/02/19/installing-plsqldeveloper-under-wine-in-ubuntu/ | 13:05 |
| bekks | ikonia: But yes, for the full set of PL/SQL, one needs an Oracle RDBMS. | 13:05 |
| gitesh | under wine? than I would go with Client-Server based. | 13:06 |
| esing | hello | 13:06 |
| bekks | gitesh: Oracle RDBMS will not run under Wine. | 13:06 |
| bekks | gitesh: There is a linux version. | 13:06 |
| bekks | gitesh: But you need a certified linux OS, since Ubuntu isnt certified by Oracle. | 13:07 |
| ikonia | gitesh: I suspect you haven't really done any real research on this | 13:07 |
| ikonia | gitesh: why do you want pl/sql ? | 13:07 |
| esing | Is it still required to add the module 'rt2870sta' (driver of my wlan stick within the linux kernel) in /etc/modules or is it meanwhile loaded automatically? | 13:07 |
| esing | I read it here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin%20F5D8053 | 13:07 |
| gitesh | ikonia: I want to play with it on Ubuntu, because I like Linux, but Oracle sucks! in this way. | 13:08 |
| esing | (I have ubuntu 13.10) | 13:08 |
| ikonia | gitesh: err Oracle make pl/sql - so I don't know how you can want it but say Oracle sucks | 13:08 |
| ikonia | seems a bit of a stupid thing to say | 13:09 |
| gitesh | hmm... | 13:10 |
| ikonia | I suspect you really have no idea what you want/need and appear to have done no rsearch on this, hence "oracle sucks" when it's Oracle who make the product you want | 13:11 |
| saki` | hey all | 13:11 |
| maddeth | gitesh: if you want to play with databases just play with mysql | 13:11 |
| maddeth | Hi saki` | 13:11 |
| saki` | hey maddeth | 13:11 |
| gitesh | I want simple, running pl/sql queries on Ubuntu. | 13:11 |
| ikonia | gitesh: against wha t? | 13:11 |
| ikonia | gitesh: what database do you want it against, | 13:12 |
| bekks | gitesh: then install Oracle RDBMS on a certified platform. | 13:12 |
| ikonia | gitesh: the only database that uses pl/sql fully is Oracle....but you've just blindly said "oracle sucks" after saying you want it | 13:12 |
| gitesh | against anything, that 's better. | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj | esing, my experience with that driver was good with WICD , not so good with network manager | 13:12 |
| ikonia | gitesh: anything that's better ?? | 13:12 |
| bekks | gitesh: There is no "better" in software. | 13:12 |
| ikonia | gitesh: have you done any research, it' an Oracle product - for Oracle databases | 13:12 |
| bekks | gitesh: Clear up your requirements, do research on it, and use the software that meets your requirements. | 13:13 |
| gitesh | ikonia: from few days, I have been searching for Oracle version for linux. | 13:13 |
| gitesh | bekks: ok. | 13:13 |
| ikonia | gitesh: seems like you are unable to do basic searches | 13:14 |
| bekks | gitesh: With a few clicks, you get the requirements for Oracle RDBMS, stating which linux distros are to be used. | 13:14 |
| bekks | gitesh: You didnt do that basic research yet. | 13:14 |
| ikonia | s/basic/any | 13:14 |
| saki` | i'm hoping to start an internet radio station, and am a complete noob at all this. i've tested out my required software and stuff on my desktop, but now i wanna take the plunge and start tinkering with a VPS. found a provider (flipperhost) that suits my needs also. | 13:15 |
| esing | BluesKaj, Do I have to specifically load the driver manually in /etc/modules or will it be loaded automatically? | 13:15 |
| saki` | i was hoping i could ask one of you guys if you knew any books about ubuntu server administration that i could read that would teach me the basics? | 13:16 |
| ikonia | saki`: https://help.ubuntu.com | 13:16 |
| bekks | gitesh: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e24321/pre_install.htm#CHDFFBIF -- 30s research. | 13:16 |
| jrib | saki`: the server guide at http://help.ubuntu.com is a good start. Also check out the rute book (some parts are outdated for ubuntu) and be sure to read the official documentation for the software you are using | 13:17 |
| saki` | oh sorry! i figured it'd be a bit more complicated than that. | 13:17 |
| BluesKaj | esing, I don't recall having to load the driver manually | 13:18 |
| gitesh | well, do you know any University providing pl/sql courses online? such as Harvard, Standford, MIT, etc. | 13:19 |
| bekks | gitesh: There is none. Oracle provides all the documentation needed, as well as certifications. | 13:20 |
| gitesh | ok. | 13:21 |
| gitesh | If there is an OS called Oracle Linux, I must start Oracle now:-) | 13:22 |
| gitesh | *loving | 13:22 |
| bekks | gitesh: There is. Provided by Oracle. Guess why they name it in their requirements. | 13:23 |

| Dmole | bekks: so if it's not (U)EFI any idea what the difference is? | 13:28 |
| DJones | FiremanEd: Do you mean to get the Grub menu up on screen? Press and hold down the left shift keey (it may be a case of repeatedly pressing it while the machine starts powering up) | 13:28 |
| RayWizard | i have a lot of chrome processes, is it possible to limit all them not to use more than 50% cpu, or something? | 13:28 |

| MonkeyDust | robotti if the OS were the same as ubuntu, it would be called ubuntu | 14:12 |
| jrib | qwebirc33702: if you're "stuck" as far as how to fix your issue, I would suggest installing ubuntu and seeing if the issue exists there. If it does, then come back for support. If it doesn't then you've narrowed it down to elementary-specific changes. | 14:12 |

| lrojas | hi all, if i have ubuntu running under vmware installed with minimal virtual system ( seleceted in F4 during install ), if i do sudo apt-get upgrade it says that linux-image-virtual is being held back, but when i do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade there is no mention of linux-image-virtual. should i be ok with just upgrade ? | 14:21 |
| jrib | !dist-upgrade | lrojas | 14:21 |
| ubottu | lrojas: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 14:21 |
| jrib | lrojas: you should run dist-upgrade | 14:21 |
| jrib | lrojas: (unless for some reason you don't want to install the latest support kernel with security updates and such) | 14:22 |

| marcin198611112 | hi, how install in ubuntu 12.04 freeglut in version 2.8.1 from ppa?? | 14:30 |
| lrojas | jrib: http://pastebin.ca/2433581 | 14:30 |
| OerHeks | marcin198611112, what PPA do you refer to? | 14:32 |
| jrib | lrojas: yes, so dist-upgrade will be sure to upgrade your kernel. When a new kernel is introduced, the metapackage is simply changed to point to the new version. Thus only dist-upgrade will get you the new kernel. You should run dist-upgrade to obtain the new kernel and do a proper upgrade to the latest packages available for your version of ubuntu | 14:32 |
| OerHeks | marcin198611112, 2.8.1.1 will be standard in saucy 13.10 >>https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freeglut | 14:33 |
| lrojas | jrib: thanks, just wanted to make sure, because the meta package only includes drivers for the virtual enviroment, and i was worried dist-upgrade was going to pull general kernel with drivers for devices not present ina vm | 14:34 |
| jrib | lrojas: worst case scenario, you can boot to the old kernel (i't skept around) | 14:35 |
| jrib | it's | 14:35 |
| lrojas | cool | 14:36 |

| ILoveYou_ | hey guys - weird display problem. i'm wondering if anyone has seen it before. seems at random intervals my screen will 'corrupt' of sorts. the image on the screen will distort into random boxes, some transparent (like literally how photoshop will display transparency) others will be colored. it's still usable but as you use the mouse it gets more and more distorted. only a reboot works | 15:01 |
| TJ- | ILoveYou_: Possibly the graphics chipset is overheating or its RAM is getting corrupted or both | 15:02 |
| OerHeks | no fan? | 15:03 |
| ILoveYou_ | i dual-boot w7. i haven't seen it on windows yet | 15:03 |
| TJ- | ILoveYou_: OK, that's a good piece of information. Driver corruption then | 15:03 |
| ILoveYou_ | it's a good theory though. is there a ubuntu cpu-z equiv that i can use to watch it | 15:03 |
| john_rambo | can I access Ubuntu One from Mint ? | 15:04 |

| ILoveYou_ | i'm running a 660gtx. just switched to nvidia drivers to see if it helps. would the display drivers be the only drivers responsible? | 15:04 |
| daftykins | likely, yes | 15:04 |
| ILoveYou_ | the temperature | 15:04 |
| daftykins | cpu-z doesn't show temp XD | 15:04 |

| L-sama | hum | 15:05 |
| L-sama | is there a reason why i cannot install english canada with the installation | 15:05 |

| L-sama | re | 15:08 |
| L-sama | sorry | 15:08 |

| _ds__ | I am installing a package from this - http://labs.lazlo.de/trac/labs/wiki/GuideWritingUnitTestsInCUsingCppUTest | 16:46 |
| _ds__ | But getting an error | 16:46 |
| _ds__ | Can anybody help ? | 16:46 |
| _ds__ | the error is - make file not found | 16:46 |
| bekks | !details | _ds__ | 16:46 |
| ubottu | _ds__: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 16:46 |
| _ds__ | ubottu: Sure sir | 16:47 |
| DJones | [DS]Matej: Any reason you're installing from source? That app looks to be in the ubuntu repositories, "sudo apt-get install cpputest" should install it for you | 16:48 |
| zykotick9 | _ds__: ahh if make isn't found, i'd suggest you start by installing the build-essential package | 16:48 |
| _ds__ | I have a problem with installing a package, I am running ubuntu 12.04 LTS, When I try to run this command "cd ~/src/CppUTest/; make", it says make file not found | 16:49 |
| _ds__ | zykotic9: Command for it sir ? I am noob in linux | 16:49 |
| DJones | _ds__: Ignore my comment then, its in Quantal, but not 12.04 | 16:49 |
| _ds__ | DJones: ok | 16:49 |
| zykotick9 | _ds__: "sudo apt-get install buld-essential" is one method... | 16:49 |
| _ds__ | zykotic9: I guessed it right. I tried that command and it didn't work | 16:50 |
| _ds__ | I installed form the command given at the page I gave link of | 16:50 |
| _ds__ | zykotic9: sudo apt-get install -y g++ build-essential | 16:51 |
| DarthExpeditor | OK, So I have a fun one. I am trying to install ruby and it is missing dependancies but when I try to install the deps it is missing ruby | 16:51 |
| zykotick9 | _ds__: sorry i guess you're getting "make file not found", i guess you have make then. well best of luck. | 16:51 |
| _ds__ | zykotick9: Yes, I am getting that error only, but how to make make file ? | 16:52 |
| bekks | _ds__: Whats the exact, entire output of your error? | 16:52 |
| === Companion is now known as companion | ||
| _ds__ | bekks: It was just "make file not found". | 16:52 |
| zykotick9 | _ds__: well usually with ./configure but you have to follow whatever directions you have... | 16:52 |
| _ds__ | zykotick9: bekks: One thing I would like to mention that everything worked when I directly installed package when I downloaded directly from internet, but not when cloning via terminal ? | 16:54 |
| bekks | DarthExpeditor: No, it wasnt. Please pastebin the entire error message. | 16:54 |

| ShapeShifter499 | Slart, gvo this seems like the error: "Aug 18 11:33:01 lance-Aspire-7540 kernel: [ 1301.279218] unity_support_t[14463]: segfault at 0 ip 00007ffb3a552a49 sp 00007fff89523290 error 4 in r600_dri.so[7ffb3a4a6000+e4000]" | 18:37 |

| Slart | ShapeShifter499: that looks like a probable cause.. not really a lot you can do about a sefault though | 18:38 |
| gvo | ShapeShifter499: Try apt-get dist-upgrade. | 18:38 |
| L-sama | ok grub 2, but I only have applications and places menus | 18:38 |
| Slart | soumyajit: then you get to be the one writing this first webpage that the next guy with the same problem finds =) | 18:38 |

| Slart | ShapeShifter499: imho installing drivers should make stuff segfault.. that's just bad programming, if you ask me | 18:40 |
| gvo | palomer if you reserve space for it, yes | 18:40 |
| Slart | ShapeShifter499: sorry... *shouldn't* | 18:40 |
| L-sama | I still have grub I only need to get my grub manager to set grub at start | 18:40 |
| palomer | gvo, how? | 18:40 |
| gvo | palomer use unetbootin | 18:40 |
| ShapeShifter499 | gvo, even after running apt-get update, there seems like there is nothing to update | 18:41 |

| Slart | ShapeShifter499: hmm, didn't really find anything. Can you uninstall the driver you installed? go back to the default drivers? | 18:48 |
| Varazir | gvo: nothing what I can see | 18:49 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Slart, that is what I did after I tried the proprietary drivers, back on default open source drivers and still no unity | 18:49 |

| gvo | At least on my system it just give me disk space. | 19:29 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing ; scroll down until you get to the section on installing grub from a live cd. Follow those steps, then report back..next step will be to chroot and update-grub. | 19:29 |
| bekks | gvo: Thats what du is intended to do. | 19:29 |
| woo | smue: DocOC found them | 19:29 |
| bekks | And thats necessary to see what is using space. | 19:29 |
| CaitlynUnity | Is this a good group to ask? Or is there a #desperatenoobubuntuquestions channel? :) | 19:29 |
| woo | mt smue sry | 19:29 |
| woo | sorry | 19:29 |
| robin_be | ok | 19:29 |
| gvo | bekks but a file count as his script ran gave him files. If the problem is a bunch of small files then that'll find it quicker than du | 19:30 |
| bekks | gvo: Technically, using one single inode, you can use up all space available on a filesystem. So searching for inodes is useless, when trying to free up space. | 19:30 |
| DocOC | bekks, he is not trying to free up space. He is out of inodes. | 19:31 |
| gvo | But he's trying to free up inodes not space | 19:31 |
| gvo | He has 3 Gb of space and 1000 inodes. | 19:31 |
| bekks | gvo: IF the problem is - we dont even know. And that single case (a bunch of small files) is the only case where find -type f might be useful. | 19:31 |
| CaitlynUnity | I need to install a couple of server daemons (IRC and atheme services actually) and right now they're in my ~ directory, so like caitlynunity/atheme and caitlynunity/inspircd | 19:31 |
| bekks | gvo: 3GB space and 1000 files - those files arent that small then. | 19:31 |
| CaitlynUnity | i'm wondering if it's a better idea to put them someplace like /usr/local/bin instead | 19:31 |
| gvo | bekks we do know he's out of inodes. | 19:31 |
| CaitlynUnity | since i dont want them to be dependent on my account | 19:32 |
| gvo | bekks he has 3 gb free and only 1000 inodes free. | 19:32 |
| DocOC | gvo, bekks is onto the right track. try this: for i in /* ; do echo $i;find $i -type f|wc -l;done | 19:32 |
| gvo | Varazir: find /usr -xdev -type f | cut -d "/" -f 2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | 19:33 |
| bekks | Looking for the number of files is useless. Better look for directories wasting space in first instance. | 19:33 |
| gvo | dococ we already know most of the files are under user. | 19:33 |
| robin_be | cipherboy: sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt gives: mount: apparaat /dev/sda5 bestaat niet (device /dev/sda5 does not exists) | 19:34 |
| jrib | CaitlynUnity: /usr/local is a good spot (assuming you can't get them through the repositories) | 19:34 |
| gvo | dococ did you see his pastebin? | 19:34 |
| bekks | gvo: The number of files is irrelevant actually. | 19:35 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l | 19:35 |
| DocOC | I did not see his pastebin. So, same thing in /usr | 19:35 |
| gvo | bekks not if he's got a bunch of small files. | 19:35 |
| CaitlynUnity | ah yes, thanks.. I had to make them from the console, so no package manager alas.. should i put them in /usr/local/bin/myexampleircd/ r just /usr/local/myexampleircd | 19:35 |
| bekks | gvo: /usr/src with a few kernels easily maxes out 1M files - using a few GB only. | 19:35 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: it sounds like your drive moved or something? | 19:35 |
| robin_be | cipherboy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6000583/ | 19:35 |
| bekks | gvo: IF - which is still unclear. | 19:35 |
| DocOC | bekks, number of files is exactly the issue. Each file takes an inode. He is out of inodes. | 19:35 |
| Varazir | :) | 19:36 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: does ls show /dev/sda5? | 19:37 |
| robin_be | ls: kan geen toegang krijgen tot show: Bestand of map bestaat niet (no access, file or folder does not exist) | 19:38 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: Does ls /dev/sda* show your other partitions? | 19:39 |
| robin_be | cipherboy: /dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda4 | 19:39 |
| Varazir | gvo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6000591/ | 19:39 |

| Varazir | I have source since apr last year :S | 19:47 |
| Varazir | 3.2.0.23 | 19:47 |
| Hedge | My first time using an IRC, what are you guys talking about? | 19:47 |
| ActionParsnip | hedge: this is ubuntu support only | 19:47 |
| robin_be | cipherboy: 2-3 years :s | 19:48 |
| bekks | Varazir: Yeah, delete all kernels and headers you do not need. Remove the packages, then remove the stuff left over in /usr/src/ | 19:48 |
| Hedge | I am sorry I thought it was a discussion irc I will disconnect | 19:48 |

| diphtherial | hey, i'm attempting to help a friend dual boot windows and ubuntu on his machine (he has windows installed currently) | 19:48 |
| PoolShark_ | hi all | 19:49 |
| reisio | hi pool | 19:49 |
| diphtherial | i'm unfortunately not physically at the machine, but he claims that even after installing ubuntu to another partition his machine just boots into windows without giving him an option to choose the other partition to boot from | 19:49 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: Hmm, shouldn't be too old then... Check the smart status on the drive then? | 19:49 |
| DocOC | diphtherial, the installer will give you the choice to keep existing partitions, and set up the grub boot menu. | 19:49 |
| robin_be | cipherboy: how can I do that? | 19:49 |
| PoolShark_ | diphtherial: Ubuntu doesn't always install grub on the correct disk | 19:49 |
| ActionParsnip | diphtherial: is it uefi based? | 19:49 |
| Dr_Willis | diphtherial: its possible it put grub on the wrong drive. or failed to install grub. | 19:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixgrub | diphtherial | 19:50 |
| ubottu | diphtherial: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 19:50 |
| reisio | correct varies | 19:50 |
| PoolShark_ | diphtherial: the motherboard is pribably still set to boot from the windows drive, and Ubuntu probably did not install grub on that drive | 19:50 |
| diphtherial | PoolShark_: i'm of the same opinion | 19:50 |
| reisio | diphtherial: can probably fix it with easybcd from the windows end | 19:50 |
| PoolShark_ | diphtherial: the installer is counter-intuitive.. you have to tell it you don't want to install Grub to be given the option to install it in the correct location | 19:50 |
| ActionParsnip | diphtherial: did s/he install using wubi | 19:51 |
| reisio | well, there's no one correct location | 19:51 |
| PoolShark_ | reisio: the point is that the default location it chooses is almost never correct in multi-drive systems | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | diphtherial: can ee get some details about the setup etc... | 19:51 |
| reisio | PoolShark_: if you said almost never the simplest solution for end users, I might agree :) | 19:51 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: smartctl -a /dev/sda ; might need to install it though first, not sure if livecd has it. | 19:52 |
| diphtherial | heh, apologies, still getting information from the guy | 19:52 |
| phantomcircuit | im trying to install on a GT60 dual boot with windows 8 | 19:52 |
| === RedefinedClank is now known as Clank|Gone | ||
| diphtherial | i appreciate the help thus far; he claims he installed ubuntu to the same drive, so he apparently only has one | 19:52 |
| ActionParsnip | !uefi | 19:52 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 19:52 |
| phantomcircuit | when i try in UEFI mode the screen is blank but it's clearly booted | 19:52 |
| diphtherial | he has this motherboard: http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4482#ov | 19:52 |
| reisio | diphtherial: probably just that fix grub link should do it, then | 19:52 |
| reisio | although potentially not if it already failed once | 19:52 |
| PoolShark_ | reisio: well, I'm just speaking from experience.. I've never had an installer that wanted to put Grub in the right place | 19:52 |
| PoolShark_ | in a multiple-drive, or complex system | 19:53 |
| diphtherial | he claims that he's attempted to install grub without any change | 19:53 |
| reisio | PoolShark_: I think it asks if you do the manual partitioning | 19:53 |
| reisio | diphtherial: then we might need his fstab, his grub.cfg, etc. | 19:53 |
| robin_be | cipherboy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6000633/ | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | diphtherial: you can chroot from livecd and install grub | 19:53 |
| Varazir | bekks: deleted all 3.2.0.2x source files and now it's working | 19:54 |
| ActionParsnip | diphtherial: look for a guide at omgubuntu named "sticking it to grub" | 19:54 |

| phantomcircuit | i dont think this is really a UEFI problem but rather an issue with there being both integrated and dedicated video cards, intel/nvidia | 19:55 |
| bekks | sabret00the: You cant do it - you have to contact the author. | 19:55 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: what gpu do you use? | 19:55 |
| Varazir | and DocOC too :) | 19:55 |
| DocOC | you are welocme, Varazir | 19:56 |
| phantomcircuit | ActionParsnip, uh well on win8 you use both, the dedicated card is used for specific applications | 19:56 |
| diphtherial | ActionParsnip: taking a look at this video now, thanks | 19:56 |
| phantomcircuit | there isn't a BIOS setting to pick one | 19:56 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: add the boot option: nouveau.blacklist=1 | 19:56 |
| sabret00the | bekks: Thanks, I've tried a few different methods with no joy. Thought maybe there was a method to automate it. | 19:56 |
| phantomcircuit | afaict | 19:56 |
| phantomcircuit | will do | 19:56 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: you will need bumblebee to support your switchable mess. You have my nightmare pc | 19:57 |
| PoolShark_ | anyone ever mess with NIC bonding in Linux? | 19:57 |
| cipherboy | robin_be: I would be cautious about using it... perhaps get a new disk and start cloning it. While it isn't that old, the two read errors when you tried to boot it (I assume those are from when you tried booting it and it failed on unknown partition) would worry me if it was my drive. You could try manually creating a device file for it (I forget how off the top of my head, try google) but not sure if that will work. | 19:58 |
| phantomcircuit | ActionParsnip, bumblebee as in the software that removed /usr on uninstall? | 19:58 |
| phantomcircuit | :( | 19:58 |
| PoolShark_ | I'd like to aggregate multiple NICs into one *physical* link but everything I read talks about *logical* links that don't truly aggregate their available throughput | 19:58 |
| markr | hello, i am running 12.04 on an acer aspire 7560 and am having issues with the keyboard backspace key behaving odd. mainly in firefox and terminal i think it is a layout issue however i have tried all of the english layouts to no avail. could someone help | 19:58 |
| reisio | markr: define odd | 19:58 |
| phantomcircuit | ActionParsnip, sadly nouveau.blacklist=1 still gives me a blank screen, the blacklight is on though so im sure the kernel is loaded | 19:59 |
| robin_be | cipherboy: okay thanks for your help | 19:59 |
| phantomcircuit | probably i could install from memory but that's a bit risky | 19:59 |
| markr | other keys are behaving odd as well such as the the left shift key. it skips the last letter and deletes the second to last one and places the cursor there | 19:59 |
| phantomcircuit | ActionParsnip, is there an equivalent to blacklist the intel driver? | 19:59 |
| PoolShark_ | that is odd indeed | 19:59 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: no idea. i dont use switchable nonesense. I think its a nasty hack | 19:59 |
| markr | it does not seem to be present in empathy though | 20:00 |
| phantomcircuit | ActionParsnip, it absolutely is a nasty hack | 20:00 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: you can use the same blacklist method for the intel driver | 20:00 |
| phantomcircuit | for some reason things work fine in LEGACY boot mode | 20:00 |
| phantomcircuit | it's intel_agp right | 20:00 |
| ActionParsnip | poolshark: if they are on the same LAN you wont get extra speed | 20:01 |

| phantomcircuit | ActionParsnip, i actually have ubuntu installed, but it only boots if i set LEGACY boot mode | 20:01 |
| phantomcircuit | if i switch to UEFI it boots win8 | 20:01 |
| PoolShark_ | ActionParsnip: that's been my experience so far yes | 20:01 |
| phantomcircuit | so ... it kind of works... | 20:01 |
| markr | looking over the forums the suggestion on other acer models to disable legacy usb support came up empty because this models bios does not have legacy usb support | 20:01 |
| ActionParsnip | phantomcircuit: is the OS fully updated? | 20:02 |
| PoolShark_ | I've gotten higher speed with balance-rr but the packet loss rate is pretty high due to timing variances | 20:02 |
| phantomcircuit | ActionParsnip, yeah | 20:02 |
| phantomcircuit | the restricted drivers stuff doesn't detect the nvidia gpu | 20:02 |
| phantomcircuit | installing them manually is very much a "sort of works" thing | 20:03 |
| phantomcircuit | the screen resolution is so wrong there's no way to access the sidebar | 20:03 |
| phantomcircuit | i actually dont want to use the nvidia card at all under ubuntu though so that doesn't matter | 20:03 |
| Dr_Willis | run the nvidia-settings tool and select a proper res | 20:03 |
| Dr_Willis | You got a dual gpu Optimius system then? with intel and nvidia? | 20:04 |
| phantomcircuit | Dr_Willis, lol i cant since i cant do much of anything | 20:04 |
| phantomcircuit | Dr_Willis, yup | 20:04 |
| markr | i am still downloading updates on this install, however it was present in 13 as well | 20:04 |

| phantomcircuit | so bumblebee could help once i've installed | 20:12 |
| DocOC | ok, so this is a desktop computer. In the upper right-hand corner of your panel, there is a little network icon. You can click on that, and configure your interfaces. | 20:12 |

| reisio | diphtherial: not exactly | 20:17 |
| reisio | diphtherial: did you figure out if it was in fact one disk with both Windows and Ubuntu on it? | 20:17 |
| diphtherial | yes, it's the same physical drive; he installed it to a separate partition | 20:18 |
| juvani | reisio: easy to browse my backup history and do restore | 20:18 |
| diphtherial | he's also able to boot the live cd fwiw | 20:18 |
| reisio | diphtherial: did you try the boot repair stuff yet? | 20:18 |
| wouter__ | Hardware comp list there does not seem to support a lot of newer hardware. | 20:20 |
| diphtherial | i believe he tried to reinstall grub, but for some reason the windows boot loader remains and just knocks him into windows on boot | 20:20 |
| diphtherial | he seems convinced that somthing in the BIOS is preventing modification of the bootloader | 20:20 |
| wouter__ | Any known issues installing ubuntu on ssd's? | 20:21 |

| markr | reisio; when backspacing it skips the last letter then deletes the next i.e. hobbit would be hobbt with the cursor after the last b | 20:29 |
| diphtherial | hmm, is there a foolproof way for him to determine with /dev/sda* device is his windows drive? i believe he only has one physical drive in the machine | 20:29 |
| bekks | d4rk0n3: It tells you that some application is terminating communicating with IPv6 localhost Port 631. | 20:29 |
| diphtherial | not sure if he has external storage, but i can tell him to disconnect it | 20:29 |
| reisio | markr: that is weird | 20:29 |
| bekks | diphtherial: Take a look at sudo blkid -g | 20:30 |
| d4rk0n3 | bekks, i know but when i look into it it doesnt have a program associated to it | 20:30 |
| markr | reisio also trying to put a colon left shift with ; outputs an 9 and scrolls up here | 20:30 |
| bekks | d4rk0n3: Because the network communication is terminating, and the application already terminated. The application on Port 631 is the webinterface of cups. | 20:30 |

| FastCode | @bluefox:why not connect your laptop directly then? | 21:02 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: depends on lots of factors. do it overnight is how i'd do it | 21:02 |
| bluefox83 | hrm.....i just had an idea >.> | 21:02 |
| FastCode | bluefox83: also you can gzip your data | 21:02 |
| bluefox83 | what if i created another partition on the drive and copied it over, formatted the original partition to ext4, then copied everything back and resized the partition...would that erase my data? O.o | 21:03 |
| bluefox83 | i only have 230G of data, and it's a 1tb drive.... | 21:04 |
| ActionParsnip | if you are careful. no | 21:04 |
| reisio | bluefox83: you mean resized then copy everything back? | 21:04 |
| linuxliam | and recommendations for ftp uploading/downloading | 21:04 |
| bluefox83 | yeah... | 21:04 |
| reisio | bluefox83: should be fine unless either drive fails physically :p | 21:04 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: install openssh-server and use sftp | 21:04 |
| reisio | bluefox83: use rsync -av to be sure you copy it all properly | 21:05 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: much more secure than an ftp server | 21:05 |
| ai6pg | cd | 21:05 |
| FastCode | and if using cp use the '--preserve=all' switch | 21:05 |
| reisio | which is to say it's secure at all ;) | 21:05 |
| bluefox83 | OR, just create another partition...one way bigger but of ext4, then copy it all to that...then once the copying is done, just remove the old partition and resize the new one to just take up all the space? | 21:05 |
| reisio | don't use cp for 230GB of data ;p | 21:05 |
| linuxliam | ActionParsnip: im not looking to run an ftp server only connect to one | 21:06 |
| FastCode | reisio: why? | 21:06 |
| bluefox83 | keep in mind i'm talking about moving data from one partition to another, on the same disk >.> | 21:06 |
| zangaroo | reisio, whats the alternative ? | 21:06 |
| zangaroo | rsync ? | 21:06 |
| reisio | bluefox83: you could, but if you have the space, not resizing the final partition at all is bestest | 21:06 |
| reisio | zangaroo: yeah | 21:06 |
| djzn | is there any software engineering channel in freenode? | 21:06 |
| reisio | FastCode: 'cause if it's interrupted you're boned | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: so a client, not a server? | 21:06 |
| reisio | FastCode: and there's no simple way to verify it copied regardless | 21:06 |
| linuxliam | yea | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | djzn: ##programming | 21:06 |
| djzn | ActionParsnip, thanks | 21:07 |
| FastCode | reisio: no you are not, you can simply continue with -n | 21:07 |
| reisio | you can re-run the same rsync command to both 1) verify everything is copied and 2) to resume if interruptred | 21:07 |
| reisio | FastCode: nope | 21:07 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: why did you not say client then? | 21:07 |
| FastCode | now that i think about it, I'm not sure if it resumes the last file | 21:07 |
| reisio | -n doesn't care if files match or not, only if they already exist | 21:07 |
| * zangaroo never learned rsync | 21:07 | |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: ftp isnt just a client. it is a server too | 21:07 |
| reisio | zangaroo: rsync -av foo bar, all there is to it | 21:07 |
| reisio | without -v is a little faster, for those long ones | 21:07 |
| linuxliam | ActionParsnip: i know sorry long day over here | 21:08 |
| zangaroo | how does rsync verify ? | 21:08 |
| bluefox83 | foo is the origin, and bar being the target? | 21:08 |
| reisio | zangaroo: just run the same command again | 21:08 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: so a "recommendation for ftp upload/download" does not distinguish you wanted a client | 21:08 |
| zangaroo | i mean does it use md5 ? | 21:08 |
| reisio | zangaroo: by default it checks if the files exist, copies them if they don't, finishes copying them if they weren't fully copied | 21:08 |
| reisio | zangaroo: good question | 21:08 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: nautilus can connect to ftp and files will appear like files on your pc | 21:08 |
| reisio | zangaroo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync#Determining_which_parts_of_a_file_have_changed maybe | 21:09 |
| reisio | it uses something :) | 21:09 |
| bluefox83 | linuxliam: filezilla is also kinda ok... | 21:09 |
| reisio | bluefox83: yes indeed, source, destination | 21:09 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: ftp sends usename, password and data as plain text. I suggest you dont use it over the web | 21:09 |
| linuxliam | ActionParsnip: nautilus just seems to crash or just not display anything at all | 21:09 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: why bother, nautilus connect to ftp and is in a default install | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: gftp or filezilla then | 21:10 |
| bluefox83 | reisio: and that's totally recurvise? i have a loooooot of files and directories in a particular dir | 21:10 |
| reisio | bluefox83: yup | 21:10 |
| zangaroo | reisio, nice looks like using rsync from now on | 21:10 |
| reisio | bluefox83: try it out on a test dir | 21:10 |
| reisio | zangaroo: yes sir | 21:10 |
| Lecter | hello, is there a reason why I must put the ubuntu cd romwhen im using synaptic? | 21:10 |
| reisio | and if you're interested in _incremental_ backups, check out rdiff-backup, which is basically just rsync for incremental backups :p | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | lecter: remove the cd as a package source | 21:11 |
| reisio | Lecter: pardon? | 21:11 |
| daftykins | Lecter: sounds like the CD source hasn't been disabled, you might be able to disable the CD source in software sources | 21:11 |
| bluefox83 | hrm...gonna have to get X running on that machine so i can use gparted and create that new partition.... | 21:11 |
| ikonia | bluefox83: you could use parted or fdisk to save installing X | 21:12 |
| Lecter | how do I remove the cd source in softwares sources? | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | lecter: or edit sources.list and comment out the top few lines. | 21:12 |
| Lecter | how do I remove the cd from the sources? | 21:12 |
| bluefox83 | uh...wouldn't it just be hella easier to say open "software source" in software center and unselect the cdrom? | 21:13 |
| ActionParsnip | lecter: or software centre can do it. no idea why you are using synaptic when softwarecentre does everything you can need | 21:13 |
| linuxliam | ActionParsnip: im not the admin for the server so im not too fussed as no sensitive data is there | 21:13 |
| FastCode | Lecter: /etc/apt/sources.list | 21:13 |
| Lecter | software center doesnt allow librairies management for development | 21:13 |
| ActionParsnip | lecter: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the top few lines | 21:13 |
| FastCode | Lecter: remove the line starting with cdrom | 21:13 |
| Dr_Willis | # deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 12.10 _Quantal Quetzal_ - Alpha amd64 (20120724.2)]/ dists/quantal/main/binary-i386/ | 21:13 |
| Dr_Willis | for example... ;) | 21:14 |
| Dr_Willis | first line here | 21:14 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: their funeral. | 21:14 |
| Dr_Willis | for some reason i seem to have more then one. | 21:14 |
| bluefox83 | so, i'm installing ubuntu-desktop (since i know that's not a real package, it just gets a desktop up and running) i'm wondering how do i get rid of all that junk once i'm done with it? | 21:15 |
| linuxliam | ActionParsnip: hehe he's a windows user | 21:15 |
| Dr_Willis | bluefox83: what junk.. remove what you dont need later with the package manager tools | 21:15 |
| bluefox83 | would sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop work? | 21:15 |
| Csabi33669 | hello,im using lubuntu and i installed right now the compiz evrithing is works fine,but when i connect external monitor to my laptop it will very laggy about 1fps .can anyone add me a advice what should i do? | 21:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Csabi33669: whats your video card chipset and what driver are you using? | 21:15 |
| bluefox83 | Csabi33669: you can start by installing the proper video card drivers... | 21:16 |
| bluefox83 | which can be...rediculously over complicated anymore >.> | 21:16 |
| bluefox83 | wow, just checking out what is getting installed on my box makes me miss debian D: | 21:17 |
| chocolate | Hi, everyone! I'm having a problem, I have `a problem running intellijIDEA on Ubuntu | 21:17 |
| Csabi33669 | Dr_Willis, my video card is intel gma 945,how can idecide what my vga driver is corrently using? | 21:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Csabi33669: intel should be allready installed by default. | 21:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Csabi33669: im not clear on how you are using compiz in lubuntu, (or why you would want to actually) | 21:18 |
| chocolate | It doesn't start. | 21:18 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxliam: sounds about right. i suggest you inform him how secure ftp isnt | 21:18 |
| bluefox83 | what the heck is intellijIDEA? O.o | 21:18 |
| Dr_Willis | chocolate: run it from terminal, look for error messages | 21:18 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: ubuntu is based on debian, so how can you miss it? | 21:19 |
| chocolate | I get the error "No Java JDK found" | 21:19 |
| Dr_Willis | !java | chocolate | 21:19 |
| ubottu | chocolate: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 21:19 |
| Dr_Willis | so install a JDK ;P | 21:19 |
| bluefox83 | ActionParsnip: ubuntu comes with a LOOOOT of stuff that i don't want... | 21:19 |
| Dr_Willis | !mini | bluefox83 | 21:20 |
| ubottu | bluefox83: The 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/MinimalCD | 21:20 |
| ActionParsnip | chocolate: try the webupd8 java ppa for oracle java | 21:20 |
| Csabi33669 | Dr_Willis, just because i liked a video about the compiz on youtube | 21:20 |
| bluefox83 | yeah..uh i was referring to just doing apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 21:20 |
| chocolate | java version "1.8.0-ea" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-ea-b100) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.0-b42, mixed mode) | 21:20 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: its still debian based | 21:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Csabi33669: id disable compiz. and se eif it works properly | 21:20 |
| chocolate | That is my Java verizon | 21:20 |
| bluefox83 | ActionParsnip: i know, which is why i do still like ubuntu | 21:20 |
| Dr_Willis | bluefox83: you told it to install that extra stuff.. so its doing what you told it to do. ;P | 21:20 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: you can use mini install and build up from clu | 21:21 |
| ActionParsnip | cli | 21:21 |
| bluefox83 | Dr_Willis: of course, i told it to install whatever the default is that comes with "ubuntu-desktop" i just forgot how much stuff comes with it | 21:21 |
| Csabi33669 | Dr_Willis, it's seems like i have to disable it (when i disable it works perfect) | 21:21 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: i use minimal then install xdm and openbox | 21:22 |
| bluefox83 | cool | 21:22 |
| bluefox83 | this isn't as painful as installing debian from floppies back in 2003 though...that sucked sooooooooooooo much >.> | 21:23 |
| bluefox83 | i didn't have a cd/dvd burner at the time...hehe | 21:23 |
| ActionParsnip | bluefox83: i was on mandrake then. on cd | 21:23 |
| bluefox83 | i used that too! | 21:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Csabi33669: compiz on Lubuntu is like big fancy muffler/airdams and spoilers... on a Geometro.... | 21:24 |
| bluefox83 | i broke mandrake so many times >.> | 21:24 |
| bluefox83 | lol Dr_Willis | 21:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Csabi33669: i find that things tend to work a lot better if you stick to the defaults. :) untill you get the fundamentals learned. then you can start playing with things | 21:24 |
| chocolate | <Dr_Willis> that is such a good anology | 21:24 |
| Dr_Willis | chocolate: but i bet most kids these days dont know what a 'geo metro' is ;) | 21:25 |
| chocolate | My friend used to drive one | 21:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Wife still misses her old Geo.. :P | 21:25 |
| chocolate | I miss it even thought it wasn't mine | 21:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Im old.. and need to update my Analogys.. | 21:25 |
| sagredo | hi | 21:25 |
| bluefox83 | you know, for such a small 4 cylinder car...you would think those things would be better on gas and be a bit more dependable... | 21:25 |
| sagredo | can someone please help me manually mount an external HD | 21:25 |
| sagredo | i am having some difficulty | 21:25 |
| chocolate | What would be the modern Geo? | 21:25 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: what are you doing to mount it exactly? | 21:26 |
| sagredo | Dr_Willis: i am stressing big time my friend | 21:26 |
| bluefox83 | eh, the modern geometro is actually quite nice >.> | 21:26 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: what filesystem does the partition use? | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: so mount it by hand/cli and give us the error messages and command you are using | 21:26 |
| bluefox83 | the old 90's ones were death traps though >.> | 21:26 |
| sagredo | Dr_Willis: normally i just connect my HD via USB but Ubuntu is saying DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed: An operation is already pending | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: dont rely on the auto-mounting stuff. :) do it the old skool way | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | !mount | 21:26 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 21:26 |
| chocolate | Have you turned off your computer and turned it on again? | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo mkdir /media/TestDrive | 21:27 |
| sagredo | Dr_Willis: okay, may you suggest a guide? | 21:27 |
| sagredo | right | 21:27 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: when you last unplugged it, did you use the safe removal before physically unplugging it? | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo mount /dev/sdXX /media/TestDrive -o OPTIONS YOU MAY NEED GO HERE | 21:27 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: of course not | 21:27 |
| bluefox83 | chocolate: whoa! this ain't windows! | 21:27 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: then thats why | 21:27 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: I tried copying a .mkv file | 21:27 |
| chocolate | It helps a little | 21:27 |
| chocolate | It's always a good thing to try | 21:27 |
| Csabi33669 | Dr_Willis, ok :) | 21:27 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: you need to use that feature. its not there for kicks you knoe | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: if you could see files.. then it was Mounted.. so you need to give us a bit more details as whats going on exactly. | 21:27 |
| sagredo | Dr_Willis: im trying to keep up | 21:28 |
| sagredo | I apoligize | 21:28 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: it syncs caches and so forth. thats why there is an "operation pending" | 21:28 |
| sagredo | the last time i came here for help | 21:28 |
| sagredo | someone said i would have better luck in the liveCD | 21:28 |
| sagredo | so thats where i am | 21:28 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: if its a windows/ntfs drive. you might want to boot to windows and have windows 'check' the disk for errors. | 21:28 |
| sagredo | Dr_Willis: IIRC the filesystem was NTFS-quick | 21:29 |
| sagredo | or something | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: the os is the same in livecd | 21:29 |
| sagredo | Dr_Willis: | 21:29 |
| sagredo | when i plug it into windows it asks me to format the disc | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: is it ntfs based? | 21:29 |
| sagredo | but i have 700GB of data | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: if the ntfs is flagged as 'unmounted uncleanly' ubuntu may refue to mount it. | 21:29 |
| sagredo | my entire life | 21:29 |
| bluefox83 | so i'm wondering, would it just be faster to plug a usb live ubuntu into that machine, and boot into that and use gparted, or should i really just make it install all this junk? >.> | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: is there a backup? | 21:29 |
| sagredo | Dr_Willis: i think i am starting to understand | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: format? that may mean the FS or disk is totally messed up | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: is it ntfs based? | 21:29 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: yes | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: is there a backup? | 21:30 |
| sagredo | no | 21:30 |
| bluefox83 | sagredo: you might be screwed D: | 21:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: so why is your "important" data not baked up? | 21:30 |
| sagredo | its a brand new drive | 21:30 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: im on a college budget | 21:30 |
| bluefox83 | then how does it have 700gb of data on it already!?! | 21:30 |
| Agamemnus | hello | 21:30 |
| sagredo | i cant afford another backup drive right now | 21:30 |
| Dr_Willis | brand new things can break | 21:30 |
| sagredo | it was a gift | 21:30 |
| Agamemnus | how do I install the 64-bit version of the mysql client? | 21:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: if it is ntfs based. plug it into a windows pc and run a full chkdsk | 21:30 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: are you sure? | 21:31 |
| sagredo | if the problem arose in Ubuntu | 21:31 |
| sagredo | while copying a TV epsidoe | 21:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Agamemnus: if you have 64 bit ubuntu installed.. then it should be using 64bit for all the packages | 21:31 |
| bluefox83 | sagredo: you might want to try an app i found today called testdisk | 21:31 |
| chocolate | Well I have had bad luck once I droped my phone in water, then the backup, and then the backup of the backup i had didn't work and then I lost so much school | 21:31 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: when it finishes. look in the system tray and safely remove the storage like yoy are SUPPOSED to. then unplug | 21:31 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: hd fails. it fails.. or starts failing.. os dosent matter. | 21:31 |
| Agamemnus | maybe that's not what I need | 21:31 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: it will work | 21:31 |
| Agamemnus | the error message in my compile is: | 21:31 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: | 21:32 |
| Agamemnus | "ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient" | 21:32 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: if you mistreat your hardware you cannot intelligently expect it to wor | 21:32 |
| sagredo | how do I run CHKDSK? | 21:32 |
| ActionParsnip | work | 21:32 |
| bluefox83 | chocolate: did you like, drive a geo metro into a house of mirrors or something? that's terrible luck D: | 21:32 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: | 21:32 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: you may want to be trying to recover/repair the disk in windows. since its ntfs. and ask about it in #windows | 21:32 |
| sagredo | that is excellent advice | 21:32 |
| sagredo | you are wise beyond your cycles | 21:32 |
| chocolate | lol It was bad but the professor had the deadline extended for everyone | 21:32 |
| Dr_Willis | its possible you can force it to mount in linux. its also possible it may have some severe issues | 21:33 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: | 21:33 |
| sagredo | how do i run CHKDSK in windows? | 21:33 |
| sagredo | im on win7 | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: well you get a lot of people doing this stuff. its common for windows users because, honestly, they know very little about thier OS | 21:33 |
| sagredo | again | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | sagredo: theres the #windows channel | 21:33 |
| sagredo | i deifnitely do not want to format the drive | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: and what needs to happen to make things work well | 21:33 |
| chocolate | I remember I helped someone recover their drive after they formated it | 21:33 |
| k1l | sagredo: for windows support please ask in ##windows | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | if windiows keeps asking to format the disk.. you may need to use some other tools in windows | 21:33 |
| bluefox83 | this is already going better than it was a few days ago...at first i couldn't even get ubuntu to start...appartently when /boot is full it causes a lot of problems >.> | 21:33 |
| sagredo | ok sweet | 21:34 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: right click the storage -> properties -> tools | 21:34 |
| sagredo | ok | 21:34 |
| sagredo | will try | 21:34 |
| sagredo | best regards | 21:34 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: safe removal in ANY OS is important | 21:34 |
| sagredo | i never knew Unix even had an otpion | 21:34 |
| sagredo | I always safely remove in Windows | 21:34 |
| sagredo | and never have any problems | 21:34 |
| Agamemnus | anyone? is lmysqlclient the mysqlclient? | 21:34 |
| sagredo | but Linux just fucked this drive | 21:34 |
| Agamemnus | and if so how do i install it? | 21:34 |
| bluefox83 | linux didn't, you did | 21:34 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: really easy to avoid yet people still uust pull storage out and then moan when their data gets damaged | 21:35 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: no. YOU did by misusing it | 21:35 |
| chocolate | Yeah that's true | 21:35 |
| bluefox83 | i need to add a few more gigs of ram to that server...1 gig just isn't cutting it D: | 21:35 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: | 21:35 |
| sagredo | relax man | 21:35 |
| chocolate | It's like when I dropped my phone in water | 21:35 |
| sagredo | dont scare people away from Linux just because you think you are a know it all | 21:35 |
| chocolate | It was all me | 21:35 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: when it mounts, you will see the partition in the Unity panel as well as in nautilus | 21:35 |
| sagredo | all I did was START COPYING a file | 21:36 |
| sagredo | and it stopped at 6mb of 900 | 21:36 |
| k1l | !ot | chocolate bluefox83 | 21:36 |
| ubottu | chocolate bluefox83: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 21:36 |
| bluefox83 | chocolate: was it an android? | 21:36 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: just educating you so your apparently important data doesnt get lost | 21:36 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: you are not being helpful trying to force people into being wrong | 21:36 |
| sagredo | I was copying a file | 21:36 |
| diphtherial | sagredo: you're the one asking for help, remember? | 21:36 |
| bluefox83 | i think it's a little too late for the lecture, when it's already broke >.> | 21:36 |
| sagredo | diphtherial: you are so smart | 21:37 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: check your data and eject it properly and I bet it works just fine | 21:37 |
| bluefox83 | sagredo: seriously though try testdisk, it works on ntfs drives :) | 21:37 |
| k1l | sagredo: we can stop that who is to blame for your data loss. just ask the windows support in ##windows if you want to support for that | 21:37 |
| diphtherial | sagredo: actually, i'm as much as a noob as you are, but i try not to let my feelings of inadequacy get in the way... | 21:37 |
| diphtherial | but yeah, pointless discussion, i agree | 21:37 |
| sagredo | lol | 21:37 |
| bluefox83 | and testdisk is in the ubuntu repos :) | 21:37 |
| chocolate | So, I'm in Ubuntu and I can't seem to get it a build environment ? Would anyone have any ideas? Pretty please? | 21:38 |
| bluefox83 | what kind of build environment? | 21:38 |
| chocolate | I'm sorry I worded it wrong | 21:38 |
| sagredo | this just popped up | 21:38 |
| sagredo | Input/output error NTFS is either inconsistent, or there is a hardware fault, or it's a SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot into Windows twice. The usage of the /f parameter is very | 21:38 |
| chocolate | Java | 21:38 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: chkdsk and safe removal is a lot easier. if you still get issues i would start with the forensic tools | 21:38 |
| sagredo | anything worth taking note of before i move to windows? | 21:38 |
| chocolate | I'm trying to get Eclipse | 21:38 |
| bluefox83 | oh, uhm...yeah let me think about it a minute though | 21:38 |
| sagredo | ActionParsnip: cheers | 21:38 |
| ikonia | sagredo: do what it told you to do | 21:38 |
| ikonia | sagredo: run chkdisk about it | 21:38 |
| ikonia | on it | 21:38 |
| ikonia | chkdsk even | 21:39 |
| bluefox83 | i chkdsk wont work on ntfs to my knowledge >.> | 21:39 |
| sagredo | ikonia: in windows or ubuntu? | 21:39 |
| ikonia | sagredo: it's giving you the information to try to help you | 21:39 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: let us know how you get on | 21:39 |
| ikonia | sagredo: in windows | 21:39 |
| ActionParsnip | sagredo: chkdsk in windows | 21:39 |
| sagredo | ikonia: ok thanks | 21:39 |
| ikonia | sagredo: it's a windows command, for a windows file system, so doing it in windows is the best approach | 21:39 |
| sagredo | just writing down the mount notes from Dr_Willis | 21:39 |
| bluefox83 | sagredo: what is more convenient, using windows to check it, or ubuntu? | 21:39 |
| sagredo | ikonia: right ;D | 21:39 |
| chocolate | I know I managed to get Sublime Text 3 to compile and run Java but I can't make Eclipse compile | 21:39 |
| sagredo | bluefox83: i perfer using Linux | 21:39 |
| bluefox83 | sagredo: then use checkdisk | 21:39 |
| sagredo | but obviously it comes with more responsibility | 21:40 |
| chocolate | I then tried Intellij and it didn't work | 21:40 |
| k1l | !details | chocolate | 21:40 |
| ubottu | chocolate: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 21:40 |
| sagredo | nah | 21:40 |
| sagredo | im going to use chkdsk | 21:40 |
| bluefox83 | also, checkdisk has a windows version too :) | 21:40 |
| chocolate | It doesn't even start up | 21:40 |
| sagredo | seems pretty unanimous among the support crew here | 21:40 |
| bluefox83 | sagredo: but er, testdisk | 21:40 |
| bluefox83 | sagredo: testdisk will run in ubuntu, and it gets great reviews | 21:40 |
| sagredo | eh :/ | 21:40 |
| sagredo | not confident | 21:40 |
| k1l | sagredo: last warning now to stop that attitude against the volunteering supporters in here | 21:41 |
| bluefox83 | why am i trying to get you to use that? >.> lol | 21:41 |
| ikonia | sagredo: for windows problems, use windows to fix, no better solution | 21:41 |
| bluefox83 | afk switching boxes a while | 21:41 |
| sagredo | bluefox83: its to know about it than not IMO :) | 21:41 |
| bluefox83 | testdisk is for like...all OS's | 21:41 |
| sagredo | its better to know* | 21:41 |

| guntbert | bluefox83: you don't - resize operations with a damaged file system are even more dangerous :) | 22:01 |
| bluefox83 | guntbert: surely there's a way | 22:02 |
| bluefox83 | i just want to resize the dang partition D: | 22:03 |
| jonasty123dm | bluefox83: have you tried checking you're file system/ hard drive with a live CD like partedmagic? They provide useful tools for recovering data and such | 22:04 |
| jonasty123dm | *your | 22:04 |
| bluefox83 | not interested in that, i want to change from ext3 to ext4 without losing my data.... | 22:04 |
| [Gentoo] | jonasty123dm: did you know they charge for that now | 22:04 |
| jonasty123dm | Gentoo: Really? Didn't know that | 22:05 |
| russw | I'm really struggling with ufw and iptables. ufw *should* be easy, but whenever I enable it it locks out my ssh (on port 1022) and even seems to be preventing outgoing from my server. | 22:05 |
| russw | anyone have clue what's up with my ufw/iptables? see here: http://paste.debian.net/plainh/27accb6b | 22:05 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: ufw enable 1022/tcp | 22:06 |
| [Gentoo] | should work | 22:06 |
| [Gentoo] | check with iptables -L | 22:06 |
| inclusa | Hello, I use Vim but I research Sublime, ang I ask: Why do I use Sublime? What is it diferent? | 22:06 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: I've done that. the iptables -L (and ufw status verbose) are in that pastebin | 22:06 |
| [Gentoo] | inclusa: its a gui editor, its nice but not free | 22:06 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: i didnt get the paste ive not long joined | 22:07 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: http://paste.debian.net/plainh/27accb6b | 22:07 |
| jonasty123dm | bluefox: can you acces the partition? | 22:07 |
| bluefox83 | jonasty123dm: yeah | 22:07 |
| inclusa | Ok, thanks | 22:07 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: check the sshd config? or router? | 22:08 |
| jonasty123dm | I think the best thing you can do is copying all your data over to an external hard drive or something and then format your partition in ext4 | 22:08 |
| bluefox83 | i have data on the partition, i want to shrink the partition, create a new one of ext4 and resize that | 22:08 |
| diphtherial | huh, so he has only a single physical drive, and he did attempt to fix grub by chrooting to /mnt and running grub-install from there | 22:08 |
| diphtherial | (essentially what they describe here: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/09/live-usb-sticking-grub-2-video ) | 22:08 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: o hang on | 22:09 |
| diphtherial | it still just uses the regular windows bootloader and boots him into windows without giving him a choice | 22:09 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: no router... this is on a vps. sshd config seems fine since it works fine prior to ufw enabling. | 22:09 |
| reisio | diphtherial: not really sure why that would work if it failed from the installer | 22:09 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: ufw dont seem to have affected iptables | 22:09 |
| reisio | diphtherial: if you can have him pastebin his /boot/grub/grub.cfg, his /etc/fstab, and the output of fdisk -l (or gdisk -l /dev/sda), we can rule some things out | 22:09 |
| diphtherial | i don't think he has a network connection when he's booting from the live cd | 22:10 |
| diphtherial | apparently it doesn't recognize his wired ethernet adapter | 22:10 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: that is my thought as well... I can't see 1022 in the iptables at all | 22:10 |
| diphtherial | he has this motherboard, if that helps at all: http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4482#ov | 22:10 |
| affine | hi everyone | 22:10 |
| affine | How can I go about making a bootable usb stick from any given iso? | 22:11 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: nothing seems to be affected in iptables there, not sure what got messed up | 22:11 |
| inclusa | Gentoo, I wanted to know what it makes the diferent why use it? Thank you | 22:11 |
| jonasty123dm | affine: are you running windows? | 22:11 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: i would try to remove ufw, remove all the related files, flush all iptables and try again | 22:11 |
| affine | jonasty123dm, ubuntu. my usb stick is in /dev/sdd1. I already tried using dd, but system monitor showed dd wasn't doing anything when I tried it. | 22:11 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: done that several times already :) | 22:11 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: or, just use iptables | 22:11 |
| affine | I tried dd if=~/path/to/iso.iso of=/dev/sdd1 and that didn't work :( | 22:11 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: my thinking is that there's some iptables config happening somewhere else that is overriding ufw | 22:12 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: I've also started trying to get into iptables directly, but ufw is (supposed to be) just so darn easy | 22:12 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: seems like it but would be weird unless you had some manual script, and the fact ufw has created some chains in there | 22:12 |
| diphtherial | reisio: i'm asking him if he can print those out | 22:13 |
| affine | jonasty123dm, I'll just boot into windows and use a different program... | 22:13 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: iptables is easy for a basic setup just takes a day or 2 to learn | 22:13 |
| jonasty123dm | affine: are you sure the path to your USB stick is /dev/sdd1? Run lsblk -f in a terminal window | 22:13 |
| diphtherial | the whole thing's a bit awkward since he's throwing a party that i declined attending :\ | 22:13 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: but ufw should work | 22:13 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: all I really need is a few ports open, and some standard iptables rules. Seems to be begging for ufw (or a simple iptables basis) | 22:13 |
| reisio | diphtherial: could save them to files on the Windows sytem, but I s'pose that'd be extra effort | 22:13 |
| jonasty123dm | affine: and check if your USB stick isn't something like /dev/sdc1. Most USB's are /dev/sdc1 | 22:13 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: check ufw stuff in /etc | 22:14 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: theres some manual stuff that can be done in there | 22:14 |
| diphtherial | reisio: well, hopefully he has a network connection and can pastebin them; we'll see, i suppose | 22:14 |
| diphtherial | thank you for your continuing help as well | 22:14 |
| [Gentoo] | when you removed ufw, did you remove all the configs? | 22:14 |
| sagredo | hello support: windows does not detect my drive at all | 22:14 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: it has to be outside of there. I've purged all of ufw and started fresh and it does the smae | 22:14 |
| sagredo | so I tried 'testdisc' | 22:14 |
| sagredo | it is asking for my partition, how can I find that out? | 22:15 |
| jonasty123dm | bluefox: so you want to shrink a partition, and with the free space you've become, you want to create a new EXT4 partition? Sorry for late reply | 22:15 |
| sagredo | "please select partition table type" | 22:15 |
| sagredo | how can I list this? | 22:15 |
| jonasty123dm | bluefox83 : so you want to shrink a partition, and with the free space you've become, you want to create a new EXT4 partition? Sorry for late reply | 22:15 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: not sure what else to suggest | 22:16 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: ok - thx anyway. | 22:16 |
| [Gentoo] | russw: if you get some time, iptables is good to learn though | 22:16 |
| [Gentoo] | you have much more direct control | 22:16 |
| russw | [Gentoo]: my fear in doing it manually is manyfold. a) missing "good" config that ufw et al would do b) issues blending iptables and fail2ban/psad, etc, and c) complexity | 22:17 |
| Gerowen | What is the minimum amount of RAM required for Ubuntu 13.04 to be installed? I've found some system requirements but the page looks rather old. The reason I'm asking is I used the "Startup Disc Creator" to create an Ubuntu installer on my thumb drive, I've booted from it, but it seems to have frozen at the "ubuntu" logo and the little dots. The dots are animating, but they have been for about 20 minutes now with no progress. | 22:29 |
| [Gentoo] | Gerowen: i would say ~2gb | 22:29 |
| [Gentoo] | for full ubuntu | 22:29 |
| Gerowen | That's what I was thinking, this computer only has 1 GB | 22:29 |
| MonkeyDust | !requirements | Gerowen start here | 22:30 |

| palomer | does ubuntu install a firewall by default? | 22:30 |
| [Gentoo] | palomer: ufw | 22:30 |
| Gerowen | K, appreciate it everybody. | 22:30 |
| [Gentoo] | i think its disabled on default though | 22:30 |
| Gerowen | palomer: There is a firewall, but it runs in the background. If you want to manage it with a GUI, check out gufw | 22:31 |
| MonkeyDust | palomer ubuntu has iptables, better ask in #ubuntu-server | 22:31 |
| jonasty123dm | palomer: yes, but you have to activate it manually | 22:31 |
| reisio | Gerowen: 1GB should be fine | 22:31 |
| reisio | Gerowen: moreso if you use a DE other than the default | 22:31 |
| palomer | oh, so by default I should be able to accept connections | 22:32 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: theres no default firewall rules to block anything | 22:39 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: any service should work. | 22:39 |
| palomer | got it | 22:39 |

| reisio | tenguix: about what? | 23:01 |
| tenguix | xfce4 | 23:01 |
| tenguix | and gconf. | 23:01 |
| tenguix | i like xfconf. | 23:01 |
| reisio | you still have xfconf | 23:01 |
| reisio | gconf is used for other things you installed | 23:01 |
| tenguix | Nope. | 23:02 |
| reisio | yes | 23:02 |
| * Dr_Willis still hasent actaully seen what the actual Problem is... | 23:02 | |
| tenguix | Currently, yes. I'm using 12.10 | 23:02 |
| reisio | there isn't one | 23:02 |
| reisio | tenguix: nope | 23:02 |
| tenguix | Allright, well youve been so helpful! | 23:02 |
| reisio | the only way you don't have xfconf is if your system is missing a dep on accident | 23:02 |
| tenguix | I have xfconf. | 23:02 |
| reisio | I know you do, I just said so :p | 23:03 |
| Dr_Willis | !find xfconf | 23:03 |
| ubottu | Found: libxfconf-0-2, libxfconf-0-2-dbg, libxfconf-0-dev, xfconf | 23:03 |
| tenguix | Alright, let me start over. | 23:03 |
| reisio | I said you did and you said 'nope' ;) | 23:03 |
| tenguix | Hi! I'm tenguix. | 23:03 |
| reisio | hi :) | 23:03 |
| Moony22 | Hi | 23:03 |
| reisio | Moony22: hi | 23:03 |
| reisio | Dr_Willis: hi | 23:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Moo! | 23:03 |
| Moony22 | Not talking to you | 23:03 |
| reisio | awe | 23:03 |
| tenguix | I like using xfconf, and not the crappy new idea that xfce had to bring a single gconf file into the mix when they introduced their new terminal upgrade! | 23:04 |
| * Dr_Willis closes the ticket. | 23:04 | |
| tenguix | Should I start over again? | 23:04 |
| tenguix | Allright. | 23:04 |
| Moony22 | Yes | 23:04 |
| tenguix | Hi I'm tenguix! What is linux? | 23:04 |
| reisio | tenguix: that isn't an Xfce thing | 23:04 |
| reisio | tenguix: it's an Xubuntu thing at most | 23:04 |
| tenguix | Thats the problem | 23:04 |
| reisio | and it's redundant to and not replacing of xfconf | 23:04 |
| tenguix | Well the package source has it too | 23:04 |
| reisio | if you don't want it, simply uninstall it | 23:04 |
| tenguix | I'm asking if theres a workaround dude | 23:04 |
| tenguix | When I boot to a live disk I can just unpack a tarfile and everything is configured. With the upgrade, I cant configure it. | 23:05 |
| Moony22 | Does anyone actually use a unity ppa here? | 23:05 |
| reisio | can't configure what? | 23:05 |
| reisio | Moony22: I'm not sure why anyone would | 23:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Moony22: ive not really seen it mentioned befor | 23:05 |
| Moony22 | New feature | 23:05 |
| tenguix | xubuntu 13 out of the box. | 23:05 |
| reisio | tenguix: what can't you configure? | 23:06 |
| Moony22 | Dr_Willis, I did earlier | 23:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Moony22: and you so far as about the first and only i can rember seeing in here | 23:06 |
| tenguix | If you had actually read what I said before, bro, youd know. | 23:06 |
| FastCode | i used to a few months back, but it crashed every few days, so i switched back. | 23:06 |
| Moony22 | :( | 23:06 |
| reisio | tenguix: the terminal? | 23:06 |
| reisio | tenguix: how can you not configure it? | 23:06 |
| tenguix | The TERMINAL UPGRADE. | 23:06 |
| reisio | how can you not configure the terminal upgrade? | 23:06 |
| FastCode | the fun part is i have unity 7.1.0 and that ppa has 7.0.0 | 23:06 |
| tenguix | ... Youre insane. | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | FastCode: :) gotta love that. | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | tenguix: you are being rather vague. | 23:07 |
| reisio | tenguix: can't help with vague things | 23:07 |
| Moony22 | FastCode how? | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | somthing with xfconf, and the xfce terminal is annoying you.. | 23:07 |
| FastCode | Dr_Willis: you just noticed? | 23:07 |
| reisio | but what it is, we don't know | 23:07 |
| tenguix | Allright. let me start over. | 23:07 |
| generalsu | hi i just have a quick question...when i try to download the 13.04 version for 64 bit, i get 12.04.2 instead...im kinda confused...maybe a site error? | 23:07 |
| reisio | generalsu: maybe, what site? | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | generalsu: could be. You may want to try the torrents | 23:07 |

| tenguix | Hi! I'm tenguix. I like xfce4! Sometimes I make tarfiles. One tarfile I have unpacks my configfiles onto a read-write ramfs with xfce4! | 23:08 |
| tenguix | As of ubuntu 12.10, thats no problem! | 23:08 |
| FastCode | Dr_Willis: How do you know all these ubotto commands? Is there a manual? | 23:08 |
| generalsu | ok ill try the torrents ..thanks! | 23:08 |
| reisio | generalsu: http://ftp.utexas.edu/ubuntu-iso/CDs/13.04/ | 23:09 |
| Moony22 | You have too many,!, | 23:09 |
| Dr_Willis | FastCode: yep try /msg ubotu brains | 23:09 |
| tenguix | As of ubuntu 13, I cant do that anymore! | 23:09 |
| ubu_ | hi | 23:09 |
| Moony22 | Start over | 23:09 |
| Dr_Willis | !brains | 23:09 |
| Dr_Willis | !brain | 23:09 |
| ubottu | Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots | 23:09 |
| reisio | tenguix: why can't you? | 23:09 |
| reisio | ubu_: hi | 23:09 |
| tenguix | because after xfce4.10 | 23:09 |
| tenguix | they pulled in some gnome-ish bull...crap | 23:09 |
| Moony22 | FastCode, how did you get that version? | 23:09 |
| reisio | tenguix: and you get an error message that says...? | 23:09 |
| tenguix | It just doesnt do anything. | 23:10 |
| tenguix | Have you tried manually updating a gconf file? | 23:10 |
| ubu_ | reisio: ERROR: Could not load classifier cascade /usr/share/opencv/haarcascades/haarcascade_frontalface_alt2.xml | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | a tar file should extact its file to the current directory.. so im not clear on how tar is related to the terminal app.. | 23:10 |
| FastCode | apt-get upgrade i guess | 23:10 |
| ubu_ | reisio: was ist das problem? | 23:10 |
| tenguix | My tar file starts at /. it goes to /home/xubuntu/.config/Terminal/terminalrc | 23:10 |
| tenguix | there is no more terminalrc. | 23:10 |
| Moony22 | FastCode I think that ppa has more feature though | 23:10 |
| tenguix | Xubuntu 13 uses GCONF for the TERMINAL UPGRADE. As does the XFCE4-TERMINAL SOURCE PACKAGE. | 23:10 |
| reisio | tenguix: so you're saying your ~/.config/Terminal/terminalrc is ignored? | 23:10 |
| tenguix | WHY THEY DID THIS, I DONT KNOW. | 23:11 |
| FastCode | wait, I'm on saucy | 23:11 |
| Moony22 | Oh | 23:11 |
| tenguix | I'm saying there is no way to unpack a tarfile with the timestamp written to file ahead of time. | 23:11 |
| Moony22 | Is saucy buggy? | 23:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Moony22: its in testing. | 23:11 |
| tenguix | So the only solution to unpacking my pre-tarred desktop is by using solely xfconf. | 23:11 |
| tenguix | WHAT I AM ASKING. | 23:11 |
| tenguix | Well youre all incompetent, haha. | 23:11 |
| Moony22 | I tried the live cd and it seemed very buggy. Do you notice much bugs? | 23:11 |
| tenguix | Lets talk about something nice. | 23:11 |
| FastCode | I've had less issues than the stable | 23:11 |
| reisio | tenguix: ... | 23:11 |
| Nimble | if everyone here is incompetent why are you still here? | 23:12 |
| reisio | tenguix: so your problem is tar spits out an error? | 23:12 |
| tenguix | Youre right, nimble. | 23:12 |
| somsip | tenguix: tar -m (check the man to make sure this does what you want) | 23:12 |
| Dr_Willis | sure.. blame us. ;) | 23:12 |
| Nimble | well | 23:12 |
| Nimble | problem solved :) | 23:12 |
| reisio | dunno wtf that was all about :p | 23:12 |
| Moony22 | Well, is there a way I can upgrade from raring to saucy? Without formatting partition again and all the pain? Cos I just installed raring like a couple of hours ago | 23:12 |
| Nimble | when it goes live you'll have the option to do an upgrade in the software update prompts | 23:13 |
| ubu_ | hm | 23:13 |
| Nimble | but before then I don't know | 23:13 |
| reisio | Moony22: if you just did it a couple of hours ago, it might actually be cleanest and briefest to just reinstall | 23:13 |
| FastCode | yes, you just need to change the sources file or use the ubuntu-release-upgrade | 23:13 |
| reisio | oh when it goes live :), heh | 23:13 |
| Nimble | FastCode, is changing the sources file a recommended way of updating> | 23:14 |
| Nimble | I know that's how one usually changes between testing/stable on debian | 23:14 |
| Moony22 | FastCode, what would I change it to? | 23:14 |
| Moony22 | I have done this before with Mint, but never with ubuntu | 23:14 |
| FastCode | I'm a former debian user, so it's completely natural to me | 23:15 |
| FastCode | try ubuntu-release-upgrade then | 23:15 |
| Moony22 | How did you? | 23:15 |
| FastCode | Moony22: I'm looking it up on google,wait one min | 23:16 |
| FastCode | found it http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk | 23:17 |
| Moony22 | Is this already installed? | 23:18 |
| FastCode | don' know | 23:19 |
| Jordan_U | FastCode: Just changing the release in /etc/apt/sources.list is *not* a valid way to upgrade, and will mostl likely break things. | 23:19 |
| === christian is now known as Guest22372 | ||
| ubu_ | reisio: can you help me? | 23:19 |
| reisio | ubu_: I don't know what your problem is | 23:20 |
| ubu_ | ok | 23:20 |
| isasha | yop | 23:20 |
| FastCode | I usually duplicate all lines and replace the old release name with the new one in first half | 23:20 |
| isasha | any idea why youtube-dl wouldn't work with dailymotion? | 23:20 |
| Moony22 | I have just read that you can run 'sudo update-manager -d' is this true? | 23:20 |
| FastCode | then apt-get update | 23:20 |
| isasha | I can't seem to download any videos from here :/ | 23:20 |
| ubu_ | reisio: but you see my error code? | 23:20 |
| FastCode | and apt-get dist-upgrade | 23:20 |
| Dr_Willis | FastCode: thats defainatly not adviceable on ubuntu systems | 23:20 |
| reisio | isasha: what distro? | 23:20 |
| isasha | mac os x | 23:21 |
| FastCode | :) | 23:21 |
| Moony22 | Dr_Willis why? | 23:21 |
| ubu_ | :) | 23:21 |
| reisio | uhuh... | 23:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Moony22: it can totally break your system.. seems to be a good reason.. | 23:21 |
| reisio | well, either you have the version of youtube-dl with the dailymotion support, and you have that support enabled | 23:21 |
| reisio | or you haven't | 23:21 |
| reisio | try #macosx | 23:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Moony22: and the 'do-release-upgrade' tool has been written to handle the task | 23:21 |
| isasha | ugh… but it's the same thing. i installed it through brew | 23:21 |
| Bjond | isasha: have you updated recently? | 23:22 |
| isasha | I downloaded the latest version from git minutes ago | 23:22 |
| isasha | still, "ERROR: Unable to extract media URL" | 23:22 |
| Moony22 | Is do-release-upgrade already installed? | 23:22 |
| Bjond | isasha: what video is it? | 23:22 |
| Dr_Willis | !find do-release-upgrade | 23:22 |
| ubottu | File do-release-upgrade found in ubuntu-release-upgrader-core | 23:22 |
| isasha | Bjond: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x12dyum_etienne-de-crecy-paleo-festival-nyon-2013-concert-complet_music | 23:22 |
| Jordan_U | FastCode: That will most often lead to serious breakage, please do not recommend it here again. | 23:22 |
| Moony22 | Yes no? | 23:23 |
| FastCode | I have done this like a dozen times on debian, but if its gonna break your systems i don't want to be the person responsible | 23:23 |
| Moony22 | What does that mean | 23:23 |
| Bjond | isasha: starts downloading on my machine | 23:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Moony22: type in the command and see if itx installed.. or query the bot. | 23:23 |
| isasha | wut... | 23:23 |
| Dr_Willis | !info ubuntu-release-upgrader-core | 23:23 |

| === stephen is now known as Guest26904 | ||
| Moony22 | I am not on my Linux system currently | 23:23 |
| Dr_Willis | bot says its 'standard' | 23:23 |
| Moony22 | Which means? | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | so im guess ing thats a yes. | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | does it really matter? if its not.. you install it. | 23:24 |
| Moony22 | So I just type do-release-upgrade? | 23:24 |
| === mattw is now known as Guest50544 | ||
| Dr_Willis | do-release-upgrade -d for the latest testing version i belive | 23:24 |
| Moony22 | And it will install latest saucy? | 23:24 |
| crypticmofo | hi all | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Moony22: it is here.. from 13.04 to 13.10 | 23:24 |
| reisio | hi | 23:24 |
| ubu_ | hi | 23:24 |
| FastCode | with like a hundred confirmations and 'there is no going back's | 23:25 |
| Moony22 | Got it, thanks. And how to purge a ppa? | 23:25 |
| Dr_Willis | actually it just asked like once. :) | 23:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !ppa-purge | 23:25 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 23:25 |
| isasha | reisio: ok, just tried on Ubuntu, same problem... | 23:25 |
| Moony22 | Ok | 23:25 |
| Moony22 | Thanks | 23:25 |
| reisio | isasha: it's possible the script is due for a bug fix | 23:25 |
| isasha | did you use special options or did you do something special with youtube-dl? | 23:25 |
| reisio | isasha: what URI are you using? | 23:25 |
| isasha | the exact same one I gave you | 23:25 |
| Bjond | isasha: I used th -t I normally do that to add the title | 23:26 |
| FastCode | Dr_Willis: wait, it will ask again before changing the sources.list | 23:26 |
| isasha | Bjond: nop. same error. | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | FastCode: dident really notice.. There we go - it just did some stuff then asked if im really really sure. ;) | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | You have to download a total of 1,863 M. This download will take | 23:27 |

| isasha | seriously, no special options, no beta from git? | 23:27 |
| reisio | Prock81: what? | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | bbl.. upgradeing my systems. ;) | 23:28 |
| Bjond | isasha: when you mentioned youtube-dl not working, i did sudo youtube-dl -U a couple times | 23:28 |
| reisio | Prock81: egrep -v 'stuff|you|dont|want' file >> newfile | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Prock81: i imagine whatever you need to do.. 'sed' or 'awk' can hanele it. ;) with grep.. those 3 are the big daddies of manageing text files | 23:28 |
| ubu_ | maybe the "frei0r-plugins" ? | 23:28 |
| reisio | Prock81: so, '\\|\.' | 23:28 |
| Bjond | isasha: otherwise it was from the ubuntu repos originally. | 23:28 |
| === Guest35986 is now known as jan1337zZz | ||
| isasha | well that's great | 23:29 |
| ubu_ | hmpf... | 23:29 |
| isasha | it just freezes after telling me that it's going to get the binaries from github | 23:30 |
| Prock81 | want to grep or etc a file and show each line that does have a back-slach and a period, they are not together, anywhere on each line, and put the output in a new file | 23:30 |
| Bjond | isasha: does it say to hit enter? | 23:30 |
| ubu_ | plz help... | 23:30 |
| FastCode | quick question:is debdelta supported on ubuntu? | 23:30 |
| isasha | yes | 23:30 |
| FastCode | isasha: yes to who? | 23:30 |
| Bjond | isasha: i feel like we are making progress | 23:30 |
| isasha | Bjond: :P | 23:31 |
| FastCode | ah, i see | 23:31 |
| isasha | well on my mac it's updating, but on my ubuntu laptop it is still doing nothing Bjond | 23:31 |
| Moony22 | FastCode it's on here http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/raring/man1/debdelta.1.html | 23:32 |
| isasha | YES! it works! thanks!! | 23:32 |
| Prock81 | what about stuff i DO want? -->? reisio: egrep -v '.|\|' file >> newfile | 23:32 |
| isasha | are there many things that update themselves in this fashion ? | 23:33 |
| reisio | Prock81: -v is for invert | 23:33 |
| reisio | Prock81: so egrep 'stuff|i|want' vs egrep -v 'stuff|idont|want' | 23:33 |
| FastCode | I know the package is there, but it won't work, it just downloads one deb and not the delta and then exits | 23:33 |
| reisio | Prock81: it either matches what you want, or everything but what you don't want | 23:33 |
| Prock81 | searching for a period and back-slash, anywhere with in each line, so if a line only has one dont show it, so thats the forrect formant | 23:34 |
| reisio | Prock81: yup, egrep -v '\\|\.' | 23:34 |
| Moony22 | Also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDebdeltaSupport | 23:34 |
| bluefox83 | holy cow, it's going to likely take DAYS to resize that stupid partition D: | 23:35 |
| reisio | bluefox83: nah | 23:35 |
| FastCode | still copying? | 23:35 |
| Prock81 | when u have two \\ together, it that just a way to format the command to handle a slach | 23:35 |
| FastCode | its like 8 hours, right? | 23:35 |
| bluefox83 | eh, it's still checking the fs for errors...egh | 23:35 |
| reisio | Prock81: \ and . both are used for special things in regex by default, so you've got to escape them | 23:36 |
| bluefox83 | its a 1tb drive | 23:36 |
| reisio | Prock81: \ being the escape char :) | 23:36 |
| bluefox83 | \\ = space in a filename | 23:36 |
| reisio | Prock81: if you were only trying to omit lines with the strings 'foo' and 'bar', just 'foo|bar' would work :) | 23:36 |
| reisio | bluefox83: hrmm? | 23:36 |
| reisio | that's '\ ' | 23:36 |
| bluefox83 | oh yeah! | 23:36 |
| reisio | because you're escaping the space, for a slightly different reason :) | 23:37 |
| reisio | don't usually need to escape spaces in regex | 23:37 |
| Moony22 | Bai | 23:37 |
| reisio | adios | 23:37 |
| FastCode | TC | 23:37 |
| xrandr | Hello. If my video card manufacturer (nVidia) has a graphics driver available for linux, should I use that, or the one that ubuntu has selected for me? | 23:37 |
| reisio | bluefox83: what FS is it? | 23:37 |
| bluefox83 | ext2 :( | 23:38 |
| reisio | xrandr: try'm both, see which performs better | 23:38 |
| bluefox83 | er, ext3 | 23:38 |
| reisio | bluefox83: ah | 23:38 |
| bluefox83 | i need 4 | 23:38 |
| reisio | yeah an fsck will take a while | 23:38 |
| bluefox83 | because it's soooooooo sloooooooooow | 23:38 |
| reisio | but not days :) | 23:38 |
| FastCode | you ARE lucky its not ext2 | 23:38 |
| reisio | are you fsck'ing an FS that you're duplicating the data of already? | 23:38 |
| bluefox83 | i tried an fsck yesterday and all night...it failed at just over 2% completion after running 18 hours D: | 23:38 |
| bluefox83 | eh, i'm using gparted to resize first...then i'll copy | 23:39 |
| xrandr | reisio: ok. I just want to be able to play my SimCity game via wine on here :) | 23:39 |
| bluefox83 | i wonder why my monitor on my laptop keeps shutting off and blinking back on by itself O.o | 23:40 |
| reisio | xrandr: probably won't make a real different in that specific regard | 23:40 |
| reisio | xrandr: assuming both work at all, that is :) | 23:40 |
| FastCode | krandr: the ubuntu provided package has all the required tweaking, and believe me its not every mans job to install that freaking '.run' file | 23:41 |
| xrandr | FastCode: ok | 23:41 |
| ThePendulum | I have a bit of an issue here | 23:41 |
| ThePendulum | An application requires me to fill in my password | 23:41 |
| ThePendulum | (UNetbootin to be specific) | 23:41 |
| ThePendulum | But it won't take my password | 23:42 |
| ThePendulum | It keeps saying it's wrong | 23:42 |
| Bjond | !enter | ThePendulum | 23:42 |
| ubottu | ThePendulum: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 23:42 |
| Prock81 | reisio: so it WILL show "C:\Windows\file.sys" But NOT show "C:\Windows\" or NOT show "file.sys is missing" ,But WOULD show "even thow i wouldnt want this line \n it will still report cause it has both chars im looking for.." ? Can you make an example of that? reading from a file and making a new file | 23:42 |
| ThePendulum | Well it's too late for that now :O | 23:43 |
| wilee-nilee | ThePendulum, Does you password work in a update in the terminal? | 23:43 |
| wilee-nilee | your* | 23:43 |
| ThePendulum | It works everywhere but for the gksudo request by UNetbootin (so far) | 23:43 |
| ThePendulum | I log in with it, I sudo with it in the terminal | 23:43 |
| wilee-nilee | ThePendulum, You don;t need to. | 23:44 |
| FastCode | if it's the one time you need it, sudo in the terminal and run unetbootin as root | 23:44 |
| ThePendulum | Well I use unetbootin occasionally, I'd rather fix it | 23:44 |
| ThePendulum | Or at least find out what's the issue | 23:45 |
| wilee-nilee | ThePendulum, Fixing it would be using it as intended. | 23:45 |
| bluefox83 | i think i'ma stop gparted and just copy things over the network...this is rediculous... | 23:45 |
| ThePendulum | wilee-nilee: Using what as intended, if I may ask? | 23:45 |
| Prock81 | i ran a dependency walker on a program and tring to only pick out lines with path + filename, the file is quite large would take me hours to pich through it, going to get all the files and see if i can make wine work with it | 23:46 |
| FastCode | bluefox83: it sometimes warns that it may leave your partition in an inconsis...whatever state, but nothing has happened to me, just sayyin' | 23:47 |
| Prock81 | u say |\\| will look for a space, but what if i not looking for a space, just the slash and a dot | 23:49 |
| ThePendulum | wilee-nilee: How is starting it via Unity not the intended use? | 23:49 |
| bluefox83 | ok, what's the best way to quickly transfer entire directories from one machine that's connected to a router by cat5 to a laptop that's connected via wifi G | 23:53 |
| Bjond | bluefox83: rsync? | 23:53 |
| bluefox83 | because nautilus/smb was going like...11k | 23:54 |
| Vinnie_win | how do I easily get the latest gcc onto my ubuntu? Without recompiling from source? | 23:54 |
| bluefox83 | Bjond: so that would work...how? rsync://user@192.168.1.5/location/of/files/ /where/i/want/it | 23:56 |
| bluefox83 | kinda like that? | 23:56 |
| === wat is now known as derp | ||
| bluefox83 | it's looking like i might need to also fsck my primary partition D: | 23:58 |
