| bl4ckdu5t | wilee-nilee: I have a 4Gb ram and I think it's ok | 00:01 |
| DonkeyHotei | you have to have more swap than ram to hibernate | 00:02 |
| wilee-nilee | bl4ckdu5t, Some do not work so well, these threads show all the options to test it. Make sure the swap is at least 4 gigs slightly more is best. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=12.04+hibernate | 00:02 |
| bekks | DonkeyHotei: Marginally more swap, 4.1G swap for 4G RAM is ok for hibernation. | 00:02 |
| DonkeyHotei | yes | 00:03 |

| ninaneufeld | why is ubuntu so cool? | 00:04 |
| wilee-nilee | bl4ckdu5t no problem, hopefully that helps. | 00:04 |
| wilee-nilee | ninaneufeld, Not a support topic try #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:05 |
| bl4ckdu5t | yea | 00:06 |
| DonkeyHotei | it's cool because it's not overheating your system :P | 00:06 |
| dr_willis | unless theres a powersaveing bug | 00:07 |
| wilee-nilee | SubCool, The packages will be different versions most likely in 12.04, you can make a list of whats installed though with. dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages | 00:07 |
| wilee-nilee | SubCool, I have a list of all my secondary package installs for fresh installs and any PPa's and keys, for fresh installs | 00:09 |

| NickRice | how can i edit my file system on xubuntu | 00:12 |
| wilee-nilee | NickRice, The partitions? | 00:12 |

| yigal | hello anyone use Netflix with 4000hd intel I've had to change the acceleration to uxa from sna as it was breaking X every hour or two. The question I have is what settings are you people using to watch NetFlix as hassle free as possible? | 00:12 |
| NickRice | i can just make copies on the desktop | 00:12 |
| NickRice | i wanna put a C++ header in usr/include but it refused to copy over | 00:13 |
| bekks | NickRice: Because thats not possible with every guest OS running in vbox and it depends on the settings of your vm. | 00:13 |
| DonkeyHotei | yigal: doesn't netflix need silverlight? | 00:13 |
| bekks | NickRice: You have to use the same mechanism as if you were using a second PC. | 00:13 |
| wilee-nilee | yigal, It runs in a wine envoroment I believe. | 00:13 |
| wilee-nilee | environment* | 00:14 |
| NickRice | no no u misudnerstand | 00:14 |
| NickRice | the file is IN ubuntu | 00:14 |

| wilee-nilee | NickRice, ^^^^ | 00:14 |
| wilee-nilee | sorry Nickeeh | 00:14 |
| bekks | NickRice: As a normal user you do not have permissions to copy files somewhere outside your home. | 00:14 |
| NickRice | wilee-nileei downloaded the file IN xubuntu, and am trying to move it from the xubuntu desktop to xubuntop file system | 00:14 |
| NickRice | bekks:* | 00:15 |
| wilee-nilee | tab complete to notify the user NickRice | 00:15 |
| DonkeyHotei | NickRice: you shouldn't need to mess with the filesystem as a normal user | 00:16 |
| yigal | wilee-nilee: yes, exactly | 00:17 |
| yigal | wilee-nilee: that's why video is wonky | 00:17 |
| calwig | whats the word of the day application in gnome called? | 00:17 |
| NickRice | DonkeyHotel: How else can i make Codeblocks access the class file... i need to put it in usr/included but it wont go in! | 00:17 |
| yigal | wilee-nilee: but it works even with a non-dedicated video card. The only problem is that using the more advanced 3d SNA it breaks very quickly | 00:18 |
| wilee-nilee | yigal, not sure of any fix, I don't use Netflix, you might ask in #winehq as just a suggestion is all. | 00:19 |
| yigal | wilee-nilee: cool man this is more specific to the X drivers being used in Ubuntu 13.04 but I will try my luck there as well | 00:20 |

| ozzloy | ubuntu 12.04 | 00:38 |
| SubCool | ok... question. I am about to resort back to 12.04.3 for stability, but i like a lot of the plasma option and such from 13. - is there a way to save those packages? or somthing? Well, i know there is a way, but is there a simple way? | 00:41 |
| kostkon | ozzloy, try: sudo hciconfig hci0 reset | 00:41 |
| OerHeks | SubCool, so you would risk stability, using backports or something on 12.04 to get latest packages meant for 13.04? | 00:45 |
| SubCool | OerHeks, Kinda? - i just want a few of the gui plasma updates... - | 00:48 |
| SubCool | brb.. | 00:50 |
| mrproper | If I want to install 12.04 Server from a USB key, do I need to do anything fancy besides use something to copy the ISO to a USB key and then boot off it? | 00:57 |
| mrproper | I tried it and it said can't read from the CD, which would be completely true since it's usb | 00:57 |
| wilee-nilee | mrproper, You can dd it to the usb or use a loader there are a handful at the least | 00:58 |
| mrproper | wilee-nilee: I used one of the ones for Windows, and I figured it worked great. | 00:58 |
| LaCroix- | Good evening folks | 00:58 |
| mrproper | wilee-nilee: But like I said, the installer was looking for a CD-ROM. | 00:58 |
| wilee-nilee | mrproper, try unetbootin | 00:58 |
| mrproper | wilee-nilee: I did but it was odd and it wouldn't let me boot. I'll try that again. | 00:59 |
| wilee-nilee | mrproper, with the ISO, not a download. | 00:59 |
| Obi1 | hello | 00:59 |
| wilee-nilee | mrproper, there is also the mini netload. | 00:59 |
| ni291187 | ll | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | mrproper, Some usb's boot better from the boot from menu outside the bios, a per-session boot. | 01:00 |
| ni291187 | . | 01:00 |
| ni291187 | ? | 01:00 |
| mrproper | wilee-nilee: What's the mini netload do? Basically PXE? | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | or just booting in general I never change the bios | 01:00 |
| Obi1 | have usues on Ubuntu 12.04 the computer all of the suden run from 2% on quad core processor to 85 -100 only while in internet any ideas? | 01:01 |
| wilee-nilee | mrproper, Not a pxe just a tiny iso to boot and load the system from the web. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 01:02 |
| mrproper | wilee-nilee: Oh very nice. I'm content with that. I need a minimal install basically | 01:02 |

| OldTexas | Obi1- you using Firefox? | 01:04 |
| wilee-nilee | Obi1, Install htop and take a look | 01:05 |
| yigal | wilee-nilee: as expected no one has answered on winehq, however changing to the less enhanced uxa appears to be far more stable and allows for NetFlix to be played in non-full version mode which is a huge plus | 01:06 |
| yigal | wilee-nilee: so in general it's the fix it yourself ideology that wins out, but I'm fine with that :P | 01:06 |
| wilee-nilee | yigal, Cool, sounds like you can fix it basically, not an area I'm real familiar with. | 01:06 |

| Lacroix- | ubottu, the laptop I want to install it on, the CD drive and has no network connection.. I want to try it out before I use it on my main system.. | 01:20 |
| ubottu | Lacroix-: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:20 |

| wilee-nilee | Obi1, htop is in the repos | 01:20 |
| Obi1 | i run 12.04 | 01:20 |
| wilee-nilee | Obi1, Looks like you added a repo address. | 01:21 |
| dr_willis | Lacroix-: pendruvelunux site has tools to make a live usn you can boot and test out | 01:21 |
| Lacroix- | boot and test out? as in an emulator? | 01:21 |
| dr_willis | no.. as in booting the usb | 01:22 |
| phillw | hi could someone take a look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/6046266/ and explain why the CPU usage is so high? It's got me totally beaten. | 01:22 |
| Obi1 | what do you mean wilee? | 01:22 |
| dr_willis | or make a bootable cd/dvd | 01:22 |
| wilee-nilee | Obi1, sudo apt-get install htop in the terminal | 01:22 |
| Obi1 | ok will do | 01:22 |
| Lacroix- | the older lap top I'm looking to make a linux box out of, it appears the cd/dvd drive isnt functioning.. that Is why I'm trying to put the ISO on a flashdrive to set it up | 01:23 |
| wilee-nilee | Obi1, Then just htop in the terminal | 01:23 |
| Obi1 | Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 01:23 |
| Obi1 | message from terminal | 01:23 |
| wilee-nilee | Obi1, close synaptic | 01:24 |
| dr_willis | Lacroix-: so again. use one of the dozen tools out ther to make a bootable usb flash drive | 01:24 |
| Obi1 | ok retried again terminal | 01:24 |
| Lacroix- | So downloading the iso from the ubuntu website was a waste of time? | 01:24 |
| dr_willis | Lacroix-: ubuntu website has one. pendrivelinux website has others | 01:24 |
| nem | yeah | 01:24 |
| nem | 13 faILED for me today | 01:25 |
| nem | i used 12 | 01:25 |
| kriskropd | does anyone have a ppa for the latest stable perl for ubuntu 13.04? | 01:25 |
| nem | and it works great | 01:25 |
| wilee-nilee | Obi1, You can only have one install method open basically. | 01:25 |
| FloodBot1 | nem: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:25 |
| dr_willis | you USE THE TOOL to make a bootable usn WITH the iso | 01:25 |
| Obi1 | got it | 01:25 |
| wilee-nilee | ;) | 01:25 |
| Obi1 | i see the htop working | 01:25 |
| SchrodingersScat | Lacroix-: not sure what you mean, the program to make the LiveUSB should ask you for what ISO you are using. | 01:25 |
| wilee-nilee | Obi1, You can scroll through it and use it to kill stuff and other options | 01:26 |
| ozzloy | kostkon, i'll try that | 01:26 |
| ozzloy | thanks | 01:26 |
| ozzloy | kostkon, unfortunately it's not happening right now | 01:26 |
| phillw | Lacroix-: using zsync to down load an ISO is never a waste of time. you need to install zsync 1st. | 01:26 |
| wilee-nilee | and find if something is running with a search Obi1 | 01:26 |
| kostkon | ozzloy, :( | 01:26 |
| SchrodingersScat | phillw: tell me more | 01:26 |
| Obi1 | nice app thank you | 01:27 |
| wilee-nilee | no prob | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | Run one of the many tools you get from the Pendrivelinux web site.. tell it what ISO to use... tell it what USB flash to use... let it do its thang | 01:27 |
| ozzloy | kostkon, i can make it happen though! | 01:27 |
| Diffyum | how would you guys make a file targeting linux and not windows? | 01:27 |
| kostkon | ozzloy, :P | 01:27 |
| phillw | SchrodingersScat: do a /j #lubuntu-offtopic | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | Diffyum: how does a 'file' target an os? | 01:27 |
| wilee-nilee | Diffyum, Targeting? | 01:27 |
| Diffyum | makefile | 01:27 |
| Diffyum | how do i make make make it so | 01:28 |
| wilee-nilee | mmm cryptic posts yummy | 01:28 |
| dr_willis | i dont develop for windows. :) so i guess look for makefile examples that allreay do what you want and modify them | 01:29 |
| kriskropd | Diffyum: as fun as that line was to read, it might depend on how you are makign files. I'd guess you could ask a gcc support group | 01:29 |
| Diffyum | i am using make | 01:29 |
| Diffyum | ok imagine a line where something is checked if it is defined | 01:30 |
| Diffyum | i want not it to be defined. but there does seem to be a default linux define | 01:30 |
| kriskropd | Diffyum: what I'm saying is you probably won't get your answer here as that is a very specific subject that would have better luck being answered in #ubuntu-offtopic for all I know | 01:30 |
| dr_willis | or programming channels | 01:31 |
| dr_willis | or development channels | 01:31 |
| dr_willis | or make 2 make files.. one for each os. ;) | 01:32 |
| dr_willis | of course isent that what the ./configure scripts normally handle | 01:32 |

| ozzloy | idk *what* is going on here | 02:39 |
| ozzloy | nurow, are you channeling that guy from the office? | 02:40 |

| trism | nurow: seems to have moved though, in the version in 13.04 it is on Interface/Control Interface, not a separate dbus menu, seems to work | 02:44 |
| nurow | ozzloy, lol, which guy? | 02:45 |
| ozzloy | possibly this is just the american version, but dwight | 02:46 |

| RedefinedClank | hello! I am having a weird scrolling issue | 02:48 |
| nurow | ozzloy, I am not Dwight! *crosses arms* | 02:48 |
| honestly | that's why "interrogative" is a proword in voice radio procedure | 02:48 |
| trism | nurow: yep | 02:49 |
| nurow | thanks trism. Nopw how do I remove the rythm box one? | 02:50 |
| nurow | actually... i'll just uninstall rythmbox | 02:51 |
| toil | Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with ecryptfs, and I'm trying to set up sshd without passwords, but it only works when a current session is in place.. For example, I can ssh in, in one tab, and it'll ask me for a password, and then let me in(after correct password), and then I leave that session open, and ssh in again, in another tab, and it'll work. But if I close the original connection and don't do the second connection, it'll ask for | 02:55 |
| toil | Disabling passwords and only allowing private keys locks me out of the system, aswell. | 02:55 |
| toil | I think it's to do with the ecryptfs.. Does anybody know a work-around or something for it? | 02:55 |
| ozzloy | nurow, no, of course not | 02:57 |

| MentalFreedom | Hello peop-s | 04:12 |
| grahamsavage | i'm finding ubuntu is extremly buggy. I'm using 12.04 LTS 64bit and i experience on a daily basis.. standard applications crashing and won't even open (ubuntu software center), problems with screen resolutions, the System Settings page crashing regularly | 04:12 |
| grahamsavage | is this to be expected from the basic OS? i'm new to ubuntu desktop but i've been using ubuntu server for about 6 years which in comparison seems incredibly stable | 04:13 |
| dr_willis | grahamsavage: ive rarely seen people with those issues in here. | 04:14 |
| sethj | grahamsavage, it probably has to do with your hardware.. What graphics card do you have and did you install any drivers for it? | 04:14 |
| grahamsavage | sethj: i haven't installed any custom drivers for the graphics card | 04:15 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, atypical behavior suggests something other than the OS could be in play | 04:15 |
| grahamsavage | cfhowlett: ok | 04:15 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, did you MD5sum check the ISO? | 04:15 |
| grahamsavage | sethj: trying to find out what it is.. it's onboard | 04:15 |
| grahamsavage | cfhowlett: yeah | 04:15 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, oh, and is this a dual boot, single boot or wubi install? | 04:16 |
| elton_ | if i buy a laptop with touch screen will ubuntu run on it? | 04:16 |
| grahamsavage | cfhowlett: single boot system, 256gb SSD, 32gb ram, I5 3770 | 04:16 |
| cfhowlett | !touch|elton_, | 04:16 |
| ubottu | elton_,: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch | 04:16 |
| sethj | Not that touch | 04:16 |
| sethj | grahamsvage Try lspci | grep VGA | 04:17 |
| grahamsavage | ok the mboard (with onboard graphics is a ASUS P8 Z77-V LE PLUS | 04:17 |
| sethj | *grahamsavage | 04:17 |
| grahamsavage | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Ivy Bridge Graphics Controller (rev 09) | 04:17 |
| dr_willis | elton_: a normal laptop should work. if the touchscreen works may be tricker | 04:17 |
| elton_ | ic | 04:18 |
| grahamsavage | sethj: more info.. i have a huge number of problems with google chrome (painting tabs really slowly) freezing constantly.. i don't know if these are related to the OS issues | 04:18 |
| sethj | grahamsavage is this a custom built (desktop)? | 04:18 |
| grahamsavage | yeah desktop | 04:18 |

| lubuntu_ | need help connect to my wireless printer.. | 04:20 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, sounds like a standard set up. did you verify integrity check of your boot media? not the md5sum, boot and then run the check - preferably before install :) | 04:20 |
| grahamsavage | just of the iso after i downloaded it | 04:20 |
| cfhowlett | !details|lubuntu_, | 04:20 |
| ubottu | lubuntu_,: 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 ..." | 04:20 |
| grahamsavage | and then i installed off of USB stick | 04:20 |
| sethj | grahamsavage, what happens if you run sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel | 04:21 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, right. there's an option to verify the disk. bad burns happen to good people, so it's advisable to take the 50 seconds to verify | 04:21 |
| lubuntu_ | im running lubuntu 13.XX | 04:21 |
| dr_willis | ziadingo: one way would be to check into the various indicator-applets listed at askubuntu.com one of them most likely can do it. but i THOUGHT ubuntus power settings showed such an icon by default when on battery. but there may be some bugs not showing it | 04:21 |
| grahamsavage | sethj: unmet dependencies: xorg-video-abi-11 xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.10.99.901) | 04:22 |

| grahamsavage | sethj: who me? erm i hope not | 04:22 |
| dr_willis | lubuntu_: so what have you done so far to configure the printer? | 04:23 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, try this from terminal; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will bring all packages current | 04:23 |
| grahamsavage | ok | 04:23 |
| sethj | grahamsavage, well the drivers aren't installed and they should come default.. so *something* happened ;) | 04:23 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, note any error messages | 04:23 |
| lubuntu_ | i got my printer connected to my wireless network..now how do i connect to my printer | 04:24 |
| grahamsavage | ok.. i've documented my entire install procedure.. i've installed many things like postgresql and other development related stuff | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | lubuntu_: via the printer config thing in system-settings normally... | 04:24 |

| cfhowlett | grahamsavage_, yes that tool or sub all .us with .cn | 04:41 |
| wilee-nilee | grahamsavage_, Follow cfhowlett make sure they feel good with this. ;) | 04:41 |
| wilee-nilee | xtriz, What release are you running? | 04:42 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage_, easy way? rename the sources.list to BACKUPsources.list open that file in writer, find/replace and save as unformatted text. of course | 04:42 |
| xtriz | wilee-nilee, 1.8 | 04:42 |
| wilee-nilee | xtriz, Ubuntu release, and how did you load cinnamon? | 04:42 |
| xtriz | 13.04 and loaded cinnamon from the login screen change the session to cinnamon. | 04:43 |
| wilee-nilee | xtriz, Did you install cinnamon without adding a PPA, in other words from the ubuntu repos? | 04:44 |
| xtriz | i added cinnamon using a PPA not from the ubuntu repos, because ubuntu repos has version 1.6 | 04:44 |
| grahamsavage_ | haha now that's fast :D | 04:45 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage_, eh? | 04:45 |
| grahamsavage_ | yeah i'm getting 1mb/s | 04:46 |
| wilee-nilee | xtriz, Ah, well PPA's are not supported here, I found for the 5 min I tried cinnamon in 13.04 it ran fine, if you want it you might run ppa-purge and install 1.6 jsu to test it, newest does not mean best especially with a ppa. | 04:46 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage_, if you're in BJ you can buy me a beer ... | 04:46 |
| xtriz | wilee-nilee, ok let me try 1.6 and check out the results. | 04:47 |
| wilee-nilee | xtriz, Otherwise a remove is sudo apt-get remove cinnamon and remove the ppa, I would consider the ppa-purge though | 04:47 |
| wilee-nilee | ! ppa-purge | xtriz | 04:47 |
| ubottu | xtriz: 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 | 04:47 |

| mrmowgli | cfhowlett: like: Hit http://security.ubuntu.com raring-security/main amd64 Packages | 05:01 |
| cfhowlett | mrmowgli, OK. if nothing comes down then .... you're all caught up! but you might run from terminal to verify. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will bring all packages current | 05:01 |

| NeonSpeed | Okay brb | 05:20 |
| c0d37ar | NeonSpeed: im not on linux now...but try to login | 05:20 |

| NeonSpeed | Is it normal for cpu to run a little hotter in Ubuntu compared to Windows? | 05:37 |
| clong | I have a question about MAAS & Juju on ubuntu 13.0.4 vs 12.0.4. Which version of Ubuntu does it actually install on with the least amount of issues? | 05:44 |
| wilee-nilee | clong, That would be a personal opinion you tell us. ;) | 05:45 |
| cfhowlett | clong, .0167 degrees of variance is normal. | 05:46 |
| clong | No, That is a question I'm asking. I'm having issues getting it to work on 13.0.4 and was wondering if they cooperate without the issues on 12.0.4.3 | 05:47 |
| wilee-nilee | clong, Yes it is but a invalid one as all you will get are opinions | 05:47 |
| wilee-nilee | that have no validity | 05:48 |
| kaboom12 | i did rm -r * in the home, (i know very stupid of me) is there any way to retrieve data? | 05:48 |
| clong | I was hoping I might actually find people on this channel who may have actual experience. | 05:49 |
| wilee-nilee | What is the definition of "least amount of issues"? | 05:49 |
| kunai | No, you cannot retrieve data that you used rm on. | 05:49 |
| kunai | Do not enter any commands into a shell unless you know EXACTLY what they do to your system. | 05:49 |
| clong | I can't successfully bootstrap a node with "juju bootstrap" | 05:50 |
| kunai | Sorry about that. Just be careful next time around | 05:50 |
| grahamsavage | hey i'm getting a huge number of hash sum mismatches? | 05:52 |
| cfhowlett | kaboom12, grahamsavage on what? | 05:52 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, on what? | 05:52 |
| grahamsavage | apt-get update | 05:52 |
| grahamsavage | https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6396446 | 05:53 |
| kaboom12 | cfhowlett: i managed to do sudo rm -r *, any way to get data back? | 05:53 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, this is with the new mirror setings | 05:53 |
| grahamsavage | yeah | 05:53 |
| kaboom12 | i wouldn't have cared but there were alot of important files as well hence | 05:53 |
| cfhowlett | kaboom12, nope. sorry, cap'n, but the data, she is gone. | 05:53 |
| grahamsavage | cfhowlett: surely you can just run data recover tools | 05:54 |
| grahamsavage | it doesn't 0 the data? | 05:54 |
| kaboom12 | cfhowlett: there must be someway man, linux has been around for ages. | 05:54 |
| grahamsavage | i've formatted drives before and retrieved all the data off of them | 05:54 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, line 14 of that image suggests there's a malformed file. | 05:54 |
| xmetal | i agree .. its a really bad idea to enter commands in a shell without at least having an idea of what it does | 05:54 |
| cfhowlett | anyone with a way to recover rm -r please help kaboom. | 05:55 |
| kaboom12 | kunai: i know what it does, i was just trying fakeroot. | 05:56 |
| grahamsavage | kaboom12: try ddrescue | 05:56 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, i've had that as well. for a day or 2, all my hashes were scrambled but the next day, they just worked again... | 05:56 |
| grahamsavage | weird | 05:56 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, yeah. | 05:56 |
| grahamsavage | are the chinese mirrors secure? | 05:56 |
| grahamsavage | i.e. from the gov | 05:56 |
| kaboom12 | grahamsavage: let me see | 05:56 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, no more or less than the other mirrors ... | 05:56 |
| kaboom12 | grahamsavage: apt-cache found gddrescue, i guess same thing? grahamsavage | 05:57 |
| Xavier89 | HOLA | 05:57 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, my understanding is that local mirrors are still set to verify against the main repo at canonical ... | 05:57 |

| grahamsavage | i worry about having "special code" turn up on my dev servers | 05:58 |
| cfhowlett | grahamsavage, you or your servers are in China. Assume that in some way, shape or form, the government can monitor. I don't know about actually injecting code, though. | 06:02 |
| grahamsavage | cfhowlett: hmm how | 06:02 |
| grahamsavage | traffic goes out via a vpn | 06:02 |

| === alex_971 is now known as gr_1 | ||

| walltender | I saved the file, not closing libreoffice writer, just shut down my laptop. Half of the contents are mysteriously gone. | 06:13 |
| cfhowlett | walltender, not an ubuntu problem ... libre office hasn't quite mastered the hack of the most recent windows document format | 06:13 |
| mangesh | you mean supertuxkart? | 06:13 |
| cfhowlett | walltender, try saving to a different location ... usb stick perhaps | 06:13 |

| cfhowlett | mangesh, yeah that's the one | 06:14 |
| cfhowlett | mangesh, ah, sorry. | 06:14 |
| walltender | cfhowlett: Is there a way to retrieve the contents. I am desperately need them. the .bak file shows in the same. | 06:14 |

| map | Douug, you mean for running email svr? | 06:40 |
| cfhowlett | NeonSpeed, all software downloads go through the assigned mirror. if you're in China, as I am, you wouldn't use the London settings, would you? take 30 seconds to check ... | 06:40 |

| NeonSpeed | aeon-ltd, At idle usually it's around 150F when I'm doing stuff it will get up to 174F but usually that's with several things going | 06:52 |

| wilee-nilee | raptor67682, very few computers come with linux. | 07:38 |
| aeon-ltd | raptor67682: as said before raspberry pi, you cannot get any smaller for the price | 07:38 |
| NeonSpeed | They may not come with linux but it can be installed on anything :) | 07:39 |
| raptor67682 | the rasberry is delivered with or without power? | 07:41 |
| raptor67682 | how much it costs=? | 07:41 |
| lhx | what kins of oweformance on the pi? | 07:41 |
| raptor67682 | and cheaper? raspberry in germany cost 45 euros | 07:41 |
| aeon-ltd | raptor67682: you use a usb plug to power it, $35 iirc | 07:41 |
| NeonSpeed | Linux shows better performance with more ram than Windows, I notice no difference in Windows from 3gb ram to 8gb but I notice a huge difference in Linux with 8gb | 07:41 |
| raptor67682 | oh really, but, on which port to power usb it? | 07:42 |
| aeon-ltd | raptor67682: $25 for the other model | 07:42 |
| lhx | bow fast is a pi? like a pc from 2000? | 07:42 |
| dr_willis | I like My Pi's ;) | 07:42 |

| raptor67682 | http://www.codeproject.com/KB/system/424615/RPi_ModelB.png | 07:42 |
| lhx | can it do video? | 07:43 |

| aeon-ltd | lhx: it can output video in 1080p | 07:43 |
| minimalist | lhx, yup | 07:43 |
| dr_willis | one of its MAIN selling points is it can do video | 07:43 |
| lhx | oj snap . | 07:43 |
| lhx | i must learn | 07:43 |
| lhx | damn iphone kb | 07:43 |
| dr_willis | i run xbmc on my pi to wtch videos | 07:43 |
| NeonSpeed | What browser do you guys use? | 07:44 |
| minimalist | the problem with pi is that they are overbooked and out of stock | 07:44 |
| lhx | ahhhh | 07:44 |
| dr_willis | Plex on Ubuntu + that Plex-Pi = handy upnp server/clients | 07:44 |
| NeonSpeed | Been testing them all day to see which is faster and better, so far I'm liking Opera the best. | 07:44 |
| aeon-ltd | lhx: to use it though you need a 5v usb power source, usb keyboard, sd card, and preferably a ethernet connection | 07:44 |
| lhx | xbmc on mac here | 07:44 |
| dr_willis | theres dozens of mini arm based linux boxs out there | 07:44 |
| minimalist | i want something sub 25 $USD | 07:44 |
| lhx | is pi the best? | 07:44 |
| minimalist | and readily available | 07:45 |
| Johnny_Linux | http://linuxgizmos.com/ | 07:45 |
| dr_willis | Below $25 is going to be hard to do | 07:45 |
| lhx | how about below 50 | 07:45 |
| dr_willis | dozen of them out in thee $50 to $100 range | 07:45 |
| minimalist | 50 is expensive in the embedded domain | 07:45 |
| dr_willis | look on amazon | 07:45 |
| dr_willis | depends on the specs | 07:46 |
| NeonSpeed | Is there a browser that is better than Opera for Ubuntu? | 07:46 |
| lhx | recommendation? prefer debian or ibuntu | 07:46 |
| F014 | Hi there .. I have a Digital Key analogy assignment , using Ubuntu, but my question to help finish this is : WHAT is the Art of lock-picking or Locks called ? | 07:46 |
| aeon-ltd | most of them are essentially smartphones but in plain board form | 07:46 |
| dr_willis | NeonSpeed: most people dont use Opera theese days. it jus has sort of fallen off the radar | 07:46 |
| malkauns | NeonSpeed, chrome? | 07:46 |
| aeon-ltd | opera moved to webkit anyway, it will be nearly identical to chrome | 07:46 |
| malkauns | Opera has always been the underdog | 07:46 |
| malkauns | from day 1 | 07:46 |
| NeonSpeed | malkauns, I use Chrome in windows and tried it in Ubuntu but so far Opera seems to be the fastest | 07:47 |
| dr_willis | opera on android is ok.but really not outstanding | 07:47 |
| malkauns | NeonSpeed, good for u :P | 07:47 |
| dr_willis | how are you benchmarking the speeds? ;) | 07:47 |
| minimalist | NeonSpeed, http://tutzone.org/increase-firefox-speed-by-10-30x/ | 07:48 |
| NeonSpeed | dr_willis, Just going by experience based on loading times, I like the simple look of Opera too though | 07:48 |
| minimalist | it works .. | 07:48 |
| aeon-ltd | i highly doubt 30x | 07:48 |
| minimalist | about 10x really | 07:49 |
| dr_willis | preloading? ;) | 07:49 |
| minimalist | nope a lot of configs | 07:49 |
| minimalist | like nultiple connections | 07:49 |
| aeon-ltd | is it just making more requests and changing the request limit? | 07:49 |
| minimalist | ya kinda | 07:49 |
| aeon-ltd | also nglayout.initialpaint.delay | 07:49 |
| minimalist | alsao chaning some rendering settings | 07:50 |
| minimalist | yes | 07:50 |
| NeonSpeed | minimalist, I've done the config in Windows, it does work but I def wouldn't say 30x, 10x is more believable | 07:50 |
| aeon-ltd | i've done those and i'd say 10x is stretching it | 07:50 |
| minimalist | NeonSpeed, yup. | 07:50 |
| aeon-ltd | most of the time though it is better than stock | 07:50 |
| minimalist | which is the best lightweight capable browser? | 07:51 |
| minimalist | "capable" | 07:51 |
| clcto | minimalist: uzbl | 07:51 |
| aeon-ltd | if you like vim | 07:51 |
| dr_willis | define what capable means to you. ;) | 07:51 |
| minimalist | capable means it should be able to do all the mundane stuff on the web.. flash etc included | 07:52 |
| aeon-ltd | minimalist: chrome/chromium? | 07:52 |
| minimalist | preferrably modular so i can switch off stuff i dont want at that moment | 07:52 |
| dr_willis | i tend to turn off flash on all the browsers.. | 07:52 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 07:52 |
| NeonSpeed | I used to get crap all the time way back in the day cause I actually liked Netscape lol | 07:52 |
| F014 | Hi there .. I have a Digital Key analogy assignment , using Ubuntu, but my question to help finish this is : WHAT is the Art of lock-picking or Locks called ? | 07:53 |
| minimalist | firefox is my default but it leaks memory like an old cauldron :P | 07:53 |
| NeonSpeed | dr_willis, How do you live without flash? | 07:53 |
| minimalist | yeah i used netscape a lot | 07:53 |
| minimalist | good old days | 07:53 |
| dr_willis | NeonSpeed: i find i rarely need it. | 07:54 |
| minimalist | flash sucks | 07:54 |
| NeonSpeed | dr_willis, Must not be a YouTube person huh? | 07:54 |
| dr_willis | you dont need flash for youtube. ;;) | 07:54 |
| minimalist | only for streaming videos | 07:54 |
| dr_willis | theres flash downloader extensions, and extensions tha tplay the flash videos in vlc or mplayer out there. | 07:54 |
| minimalist | i hipe its gonna be replaced by html5 soon | 07:54 |
| minimalist | *hope | 07:54 |
| dr_willis | so i dont even need it for streaming youtube videos | 07:54 |
| dr_willis | plus youtube has html5 ssupport for most videos these days | 07:55 |
| minimalist | dr_willis, haha nice :) youtube-dl | 07:55 |
| NeonSpeed | I get bored too easily and find myself on YouTube quite a bit | 07:55 |
| minimalist | my PrOn site is better than u tube | 07:56 |
| minimalist | in terms of bandwidth | 07:56 |
| F014 | Hi there .. I have a Digital Key analogy assignment , using Ubuntu, but my question to help finish this is : WHAT is the Art of lock-picking or Locks called ? - It ends in -ology. | 07:56 |
| dr_willis | offtopic-ologu | 07:56 |
| clcto | F014: you dont have to repeat your question 3 minutes later | 07:56 |
| dr_willis | offtopic-ology | 07:56 |
| NeonSpeed | LOL @dr_willis | 07:57 |
| minimalist | lol | 07:57 |
| F014 | screw this. | 07:57 |
| dr_willis | we dont do homework for you. | 07:57 |
| NeonSpeed | screw thisology? interesting | 07:57 |
| minimalist | lmao | 07:57 |
| clcto | good riddancw | 07:57 |
| dr_willis | 'read your class textbook-ology' ? | 07:57 |
| NeonSpeed | That sounds like something most drop outs study | 07:57 |
| minimalist | old monk rum . classic caramel .. sipping rum | 07:57 |
| NeonSpeed | Then they follow it up by quiting-job-ology | 07:58 |
| minimalist | say whats u folsk take on crunchbang? | 07:58 |
| minimalist | is cruchbang really lightweight? | 07:58 |
| dr_willis | minimalist: i dont see the point really. its not ubuntu either. ;) | 07:58 |
| dr_willis | linux + a window manager - easy to do with ubuntu if you wanted to | 07:59 |
| minimalist | or can one just strip down ubuntu and have the same effect? | 07:59 |
| clcto | minimalist: lightweight = archlinux | 07:59 |
| usr13 | minimalist: You can install xubuntu or lubuntu | 07:59 |
| dr_willis | ubuntu running blackbox, or openbox, or whatever wm you want | 07:59 |
| minimalist | dr_willis, yup.. thats what i was thinkin | 07:59 |
| minimalist | fluxbox .. is what i run | 08:00 |
| dr_willis | i just stick to Lubuntu mainly | 08:00 |
| usr13 | minimalist: crunchbang is openbox I think which is kind of a stripped down sort of GUI. | 08:00 |
| clcto | dr_willis: the difference is that it will still have all the gnome packages | 08:00 |
| minimalist | usr13, ya but it has some other issues as well | 08:00 |
| dr_willis | theres to many good tools out there that need gnome. :) so it dosent matter if the wm uses gnome or not to me. | 08:00 |
| dr_willis | its the programs you run that matter more i find. | 08:01 |
| minimalist | like my crunch bang installation parked my hdd heads every minute | 08:01 |
| NeonSpeed | Has anybody been on the latest Fedora? | 08:01 |
| usr13 | minimalist: I'm sure it does, and support would be harder to come by. | 08:01 |
| minimalist | hdparm -B 255 did not have any effect!!!! | 08:01 |
| clcto | NeonSpeed: ot | 08:01 |
| raptor67682 | there are different version of raspberry=? how to recognize them=? | 08:01 |
| NeonSpeed | ot? | 08:01 |
| raptor67682 | is there big differetnce bettween them? | 08:01 |
| dr_willis | raptor67682: theres an A and a B. | 08:01 |
| clcto | !ot | NeonSpeed | 08:01 |
| ubottu | NeonSpeed: #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! | 08:02 |
| dr_willis | you want a B most likely. | 08:02 |
| dr_willis | $35 or so. | 08:02 |
| dr_willis | and the Pi's do NOT run ubuntu | 08:02 |
| raptor67682 | ahhh many thanks | 08:02 |
| raptor67682 | this channel is so cool | 08:02 |
| raptor67682 | ubbuntu will go on it ... but i plan an ubuntu server install | 08:02 |
| dr_willis | there is NO UBUNTU for the Pi - as far as i know. | 08:03 |
| NeonSpeed | clcto, I wasn't gonna ask for any advice on it, was just curious | 08:03 |
| raptor67682 | DO NOT RUN UBUNTU ?? why ???????????? | 08:03 |
| clcto | NeonSpeed: still ot | 08:03 |
| dr_willis | it CAN NOT run ubuntu. the Arm cpu is not enough for ubuntu. | 08:03 |
| minimalist | i was a slackware fella .. apt got me to buntu | 08:03 |
| dr_willis | it has an arm 5 , ubuntu wants a 6 | 08:03 |
| dr_willis | or somthing like that | 08:03 |
| raptor67682 | but you can do a debian install then====?`?```? | 08:03 |
| dr_willis | raptor67682: 'rasbian' is the debian port for the Pi. | 08:03 |
| raptor67682 | (on the pi ) | 08:04 |
| raptor67682 | support | 08:04 |
| dr_willis | theres dozens of other disrtos and os's for the pi as well | 08:04 |
| raptor67682 | i preffer debian, it is cleaner | 08:04 |
| raptor67682 | super | 08:04 |
| clcto | http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads | 08:04 |
| dr_willis | and theres the #raspberry-pi channel | 08:04 |
| dr_willis | and 1000's of info sites | 08:04 |
| lemonsparrow | I am using ubuntu 10.10 maverick.. is there any way I can upgrade this to higher versions without having to format or something ? | 08:04 |
| dr_willis | !eol | lemonsparrow | 08:05 |
| ubottu | lemonsparrow: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 08:05 |
| clcto | lemonsparrow: apt get dist-upgrade | 08:05 |
| dr_willis | follow that last url | 08:05 |
| dr_willis | you dont dist-upgrade to a new release. ;) | 08:05 |
| clcto | dr_willis: what? really? | 08:05 |
| lemonsparrow | clcto: dr_willis ubottu so basically is it possible ? | 08:05 |
| clcto | i thought that is what it was for | 08:05 |
| clcto | lemonsparrow: yes | 08:05 |
| dr_willis | lemonsparrow: its very possible.. see the url given above | 08:05 |
| dr_willis | may be fasster to do a clean install however | 08:06 |
| lemonsparrow | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades right ? | 08:06 |
| Johnny_Linux | bigtime faster | 08:06 |
| clcto | dr_willis: and it will be "clean" :) | 08:06 |
| Johnny_Linux | 10.10 was pretty good while it lasted | 08:06 |
| dr_willis | 'dist-upgrade' is a more intensive upgrade to the same release.. | 08:06 |
| dr_willis | do-release-upgrade to get to the next release | 08:06 |
| lemonsparrow | clcto: I need to start from requirements steps in that link ? | 08:06 |
| clcto | dr_willis: ok. my b | 08:07 |
| dr_willis | lemonsparrow: step 1 would be to backup your current system in case the upgradeing fails.. an it can fail badly | 08:07 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: god | 08:07 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: I dont have much to back up | 08:07 |
| dr_willis | Unless you really have a fancy setup.. a clean install will most likely be MIUCH faster | 08:07 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: though I wish it happened fine the first time | 08:08 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: ok | 08:08 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: I need a step by step procedure | 08:08 |
| dr_willis | you must upgrade from one release to the next.. untill you get to a LTS release - then you upgrade from LTS to LTS | 08:08 |
| dr_willis | then upgrade to the next non-lts release.. one step at a time. | 08:08 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: the commands ?? | 08:09 |
| dr_willis | so from 10.10 to 13.04 may take several upgrade | 08:09 |
| dr_willis | I dont memorize the commands.. thats what that url is for. | 08:09 |
| dr_willis | id do a clean install i the system is that old | 08:09 |
| dr_willis | and not much to it | 08:09 |
| minimalist | why does my install say /tmp is not ready whist booting? | 08:09 |
| minimalist | why does my install say "/tmp is not ready " whist booting? | 08:10 |
| dr_willis | if the release is allready eol. you will need to alter your sources.list first i belive | 08:10 |
| minimalist | 12.04 lts | 08:10 |
| dr_willis | if the servers have been moved to the archive servers. | 08:10 |
| dr_willis | !lts | 08:10 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) | 08:10 |
| nyuszika7h | hi, I got the PulseAudio bell working with "load-sample-lazy x11-bell /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg" and "load-module module-x11-bell sample=x11-bell" in /etc/pulse/default.pa, but is there a way to make this use the currently set alert sound in system settings? I can't find any symlinks to the alert sound in /usr | 08:11 |
| dr_willis | 10.10 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 -> 12.04 that will be like 3gb of downloads i bet | 08:11 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: I am not understanding much from that link.. my version is 10.10 | 08:11 |
| dr_willis | lemonsparrow: and what special setup do you have on that machine that you cant recreate on a newly installed system? | 08:12 |
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: nothing much | 08:13 |
| dr_willis | lemonsparrow: by the time you got upgraded to 11.04 - you could have allready done a celan install of 12.04 i imagine. | 08:13 |
| dr_willis | unless you want to not sttick to LTS and go with 13.04 ;) then go with a clean install of 13.04 | 08:14 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: Just backup /home/lemonsparrow and do clean install. | 08:14 |
| wilee-nilee | minimalist, There was a bug reported on this at one time, are you all updated? | 08:14 |
| ashok | hello | 08:16 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: Only takes about an hour or so on a pretty fast PC | 08:16 |
| === ashok is now known as Guest3900 | ||
| lemonsparrow | dr_willis: usr13 so all I need to run on the terminal is sudo clean install ? | 08:16 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: apart from the backup ? | 08:16 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: No, clean install means you star over and do a fresh new install. | 08:16 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: Do you have /home/ on a separate partition? | 08:17 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: how to do it is my question :) | 08:17 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: I have windows too in my machine and I had installed ubuntu 10.10 using qubi | 08:17 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: If so, you can just tell it to leave /home/ where it is and use the same user name. | 08:17 |
| lemonsparrow | wubi* | 08:17 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: Oh, you mean *wubi*? | 08:17 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: I am not that smart in ubuntu so a step by step command guide would be great | 08:17 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: yes | 08:18 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: That is a horse of a different color. It's not a real install, wubi is sort of like a demo | 08:18 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: :( | 08:18 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: I suggest you ditch wubi and do a real install. | 08:18 |
| aeon-ltd | only if you're serious about ubuntu | 08:18 |
| nabblet | hi, i use an lenove t43p - when i want to run geparted (sudo and gksudo) it seems to be stuck ad detection (scans devices for ever). My log's show that i have lots of buffer i/o error on device fd0 - so i suspect gparted is stuck at scanning the floppy - which does not exist. the weired thing is: i have already blocked the flopy entry from fstab - it is still there. 1) how do i get gparted to ignoer the floppy 2) should i take care of that phantom flppy de | 08:19 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: dont have source to do it | 08:19 |
| nabblet | s/ad/at | 08:19 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: Just back up anything in /home/lemonsparrow that you need to keep and do a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS install, (dual boot). | 08:19 |
| === leon1984_ is now known as leon1984 | ||
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: "source"? | 08:20 |
| dr_willis | you should of said it was wubi earlier. ;) | 08:20 |
| dr_willis | you really dont want to upgrade wubi instgalls | 08:20 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: no image to do it | 08:20 |
| ashoksahoo | Hi, I am using a proprietary embedded system which boots and works on live (usb) but on installing it doesnt get pass the boot menu | 08:20 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: You can't download it? | 08:20 |
| clcto | ashoksahoo: and how does it fail | 08:21 |
| nabblet | ashoksahoo: are you using the normal install cd? maybe try the alternet CD - might be that the normal one is too heavy | 08:21 |
| clcto | nabblet: if he can use the live environment it shouldnt be to heavy | 08:21 |
| nabblet | ashoksahoo: usually on embedded system (very limited ressources) your best go is to use the minimal iso image. | 08:21 |
| nabblet | clcto: oh, you're right | 08:21 |
| ashoksahoo | nabblet: no, the video driver is not there, so I installed via alternate install | 08:21 |
| dr_willis | what ubuntu verion are you installing? | 08:22 |
| usr13 | lemonsparrow: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?distro=desktop&bits=32&release=lts | 08:22 |
| ashoksahoo | is there any way to boot into a very safe mode with minimal drivers from grub | 08:23 |
| nabblet | ashoksahoo: in that case: what exactly happens. i guess you use grub for boot | 08:24 |
| nabblet | ashoksahoo: yes - but i'm not an expert on that | 08:24 |
| dr_willis | !text | 08:24 |
| ubottu | To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 08:24 |
| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, You have a link where you got this usb install? | 08:24 |
| ashoksahoo | I followed this step by step http://www.maketecheasier.com/install-a-minimal-ubuntu-on-old-laptop/2012/02/24 | 08:25 |
| nabblet | hi, i use an lenove t43p - when i want to run geparted (sudo and gksudo) it seems to be stuck ad detection (scans devices for ever). My log's show that i have lots of buffer i/o error on device fd0 - so i suspect gparted is stuck at scanning the floppy - which does not exist. the weired thing is: i have already blocked the flopy entry from fstab - it is still there. 1) how do i get gparted to ignoer the floppy 2) should i take care of that phantom floppy d | 08:25 |
| dr_willis | ashoksahoo: and what ubuntu release are you installing? | 08:26 |
| ashoksahoo | 11.10 | 08:26 |
| dr_willis | nabblet: disable the floppy in bios perhaps | 08:26 |
| nabblet | I tried now with gksude gparted /dev/sda to ignore the floppy - same result. i don't see any disk activity either. | 08:26 |
| ashoksahoo | *13.10 | 08:26 |
| ashoksahoo | I have a Live of 11.10 and I used the latest minimal iso | 08:27 |
| nabblet | dr_willis: ok, i will look into that. which leaves me with the more concerning question: why can't gparted use my hdd? | 08:27 |
| lemonsparrow | ubottu: I can download it but how to have it alongside windows is a concern | 08:27 |
| ubottu | lemonsparrow: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:27 |
| dr_willis | nabblet: no idea. if yu think ths the floppy causing issues.. stick in a disk. or disable it | 08:27 |
| clcto | nabblet: it can, it scans all drives before you can do anything. is there a flag you can pass it to scan only some drives | 08:27 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: I can download it but how to have it alongside windows is a concern | 08:28 |
| nabblet | dr_willis: i don't have a floppy drive at all - i don't know how ubuntu got the idea there might be one | 08:28 |
| lemonsparrow | usr13: I am downloading the image now | 08:28 |
| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, 13.10 is in development is this what you installed with? | 08:28 |
| nabblet | clcto: yes. i am currently doing that: gksudo gparted /dev/sda | 08:28 |
| nabblet | /dev/sda is my hdd - i checked | 08:28 |
| dr_willis | nabblet: weird. it might still have a bios setting.. | 08:28 |
| clcto | nabblet: can you use parted? | 08:29 |
| nabblet | dr_willis: yeah... | 08:29 |
| ashoksahoo | wilee-nilee, wait let me double check | 08:29 |
| nabblet | clcto: sudo parted /dev/sda works like charm Oo | 08:30 |
| clcto | nabblet: then just use that :) | 08:30 |
| ashoksahoo | wilee-nilee no using 13.04 | 08:31 |
| nabblet | clcto: will do... still it's a bit spooky gparted is wrecked... | 08:31 |
| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, Ah good, on a minimal install you have to install the desktop did you? So this is a boot problem right? | 08:32 |
| clcto | nabblet: yeah, no idea. especially since gparted is just supposed to be a wrapper for parted | 08:32 |
| nabblet | clcto: yeah | 08:32 |
| ashoksahoo | wilee-nilee, yes its a boot problem, its locking up the puny handheld pc | 08:33 |
| nabblet | clcto: maybe it is related to me using fluxbox? although i never had any problems... | 08:33 |
| clcto | nabblet: wm shouldnt be an issue | 08:33 |
| nabblet | clcto: also that disk manager works without complayer | 08:33 |
| nabblet | *complaint | 08:33 |
| wilee-nilee | !nomodeset | ashoksahoo try this | 08:33 |
| ubottu | ashoksahoo try this: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 08:33 |
| clcto | nabblet: i use gparted with notion all the time | 08:33 |
| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, You installed a desktop? | 08:34 |
| ashoksahoo | ok, thank you, I will update | 08:34 |
| clcto | 'all the time' may be an overstatement | 08:34 |
| nabblet | clcto: hm. gparted never had any trouble for me | 08:35 |
| nabblet | clcto: uhm... when calling gparted with /dev/sda i still get error logs about my fd0 | 08:37 |
| nabblet | either something else is causing that errors, or gparted ignores the flag | 08:37 |
| nabblet | can some1 verify that gparted ignores the device flag? ubuntu 12.10? | 08:40 |
| wilee-nilee | nabblet, You might check the smart info in the disks app | 08:40 |
| nabblet | when using sudo gparted /dev/sda it get's stuck with trying to scan a non-existing fd0 device | 08:40 |
| nabblet | wilee-nilee: the what of the what? | 08:41 |
| ashoksahoo | wilee-nilee yes installed a desktop, but i just want cli, coz I know the embeded system has problem with graphics driver | 08:41 |
| nabblet | wilee-nilee: smart says it is ok | 08:41 |
| wilee-nilee | nabblet, there is an app called disks it is a partitioner, but it has a gear drop down top right corner that is part of the smart check on HD, usb's..etc | 08:42 |
| albert | skype webcam problem | 08:42 |
| albert | help me to solve skype webcam problem | 08:42 |
| karab44 | hi | 08:42 |
| clcto | nabblet: what happens if you just run sudo parted (no device) | 08:42 |
| cfhowlett | karab44, greetings | 08:42 |
| clcto | albert: you need to be more descriptive | 08:42 |
| cfhowlett | !details|albert, | 08:43 |
| ubottu | albert,: 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 ..." | 08:43 |
| albert | webcam is disabled in skype | 08:43 |
| nabblet | clcto: works no problem. i get calls on fd0 too, but that does not hinder it from working | 08:43 |
| clcto | albert: does it work elsewhere> | 08:43 |
| albert | yes | 08:43 |
| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, Yu describe a puny handheld computer, does it have the hardware to run what you have installed? | 08:43 |
| wilee-nilee | You* | 08:44 |
| albert | it works on youtube | 08:44 |
| clcto | nabblet: yeah gparted must be f, i mean messed up | 08:44 |
| albert | it works good on youtube | 08:44 |
| albert | skype did not showed my cam | 08:45 |
| karab44 | Can anybody give me a clue how to make that TightVNC server starts on my session only and x11vnc on guests and others? | 08:45 |
| clcto | karab44: .xinitrc> | 08:45 |
| nabblet | clcto: hm, one question. if you go parted and the enter select | 08:45 |
| ashoksahoo | wilee-nilee it runs xp, it has half decent atom cpu with unsupported video gma 500 | 08:45 |
| karab44 | clcto: yes... | 08:46 |
| nabblet | clcto: without anything else. does it list you the current device, or all devices you may select | 08:46 |
| clcto | nabblet: havent used parted in ages, don't really know | 08:46 |
| nabblet | clcto: i think i was wrong - parted does not access the fd0 | 08:46 |
| nabblet | clcto: just do a quick check please | 08:46 |
| nabblet | clcto: it won't modify anything | 08:46 |
| yeehi | during installation of wheezy and using auto partitioning, it creates a /boot partition. By default, this partition is not set to "bootable". Why? Do we manually have to set it to bootable to get it to work? | 08:46 |
| clcto | im not on ubuntu | 08:46 |
| nabblet | clcto: the point is: fd0 is not shown in parted - so maybe it is (rightfully) ignored by parted | 08:47 |
| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, It is hard to tell what computer you have, and what you have actually installed, these are key points. | 08:47 |
| karab44 | clcto: I will have a look at this .xinitrc . Is it somewhere in /etc/ ? | 08:47 |

| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, That wont run the ubuntu desktop, and whether it will run ubuntu at all I would question, it says linux though. | 08:51 |
| karab44 | clcto: I do not have such .xinitrc file. Do I have to create it there? | 08:52 |
| ashoksahoo | yep, should try it once more i guess, running the install leaving for lunch, will update | 08:53 |
| wilee-nilee | ashoksahoo, I would start with something like puppy linux. | 08:53 |
| wilee-nilee | 512 memory would run a cli setup but its a rather unusual device is all. | 08:53 |
| yeehi | thanks, dr_willis - i posted in the wrong channel! | 08:54 |

| BluesKaj | 'Morning all | 09:08 |
| nabblet | lord4163: never touch a running system :P | 09:08 |
| nabblet | to be honest - i think the release cycles of ubuntu are too fast... if i'd go with it, i'd get to upgrade whenever i finished to configure the system to my satisfaction - but that's ot :P | 09:08 |
| nabblet | usually i go for LTS only | 09:08 |
| lord4163 | nabblet: yeah, that's why I run Ubuntu 12.04, the lazy sysadmin (actually elementary os which is based of ubuntu 12.04) | 09:09 |
| cfhowlett | BluesKaj, here's giggle. After 4 years of rebooting my dualie to reset the frarking wifi hardware switch cuz my finger slipped and rfkill rarely worked ... I learned that I actually could reset it in ubuntu with ctrl-f2. Facepalm. | 09:10 |

| bl4ckdu5t | How can I use the "rm" function to remove all the files with a particular name from my drive | 10:07 |
| bl4ckdu5t | Just like the "del -s" works on windows OS | 10:07 |
| cfhowlett | bl4ckdu5t, rm **.wildcard | 10:08 |
| grahamsavage | bl4ckdu5t: i'd use the locate function to make a list | 10:08 |
| Redori | i outed you stop talk !!! | 10:08 |
| cfhowlett | bl4ckdu5t, but you better be darn certain you've filtered for non-essential files | 10:08 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: You have to find them first an delete them. Test like this: find / -type f -name nameofthe.file -exec echo {} \; | 10:09 |
| * cfhowlett ... "outed"? | 10:09 | |
| Redori | out | 10:09 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: If it find the files your want to delete, replace echo with rm -f | 10:09 |
| cfhowlett | Redori, are you even reading the messages we send you? | 10:09 |
| grahamsavage | bl4ckdu5t: actually if it's unique enough cfhowlett solution will work .. but you need to make sure that that file name is not included in any part of the path | 10:09 |
| grahamsavage | Redori: we can not understand you. Which country are you? | 10:10 |
| bekks | grahamsavage: He's in Canada. But doesnt speak english or french. | 10:11 |
| MonkeyDust | grahamsavage what' is your own language? | 10:11 |
| bl4ckdu5t | bekks: I am trying that now | 10:11 |
| raven | hello, is there anything better than vmware for ubuntu? | 10:12 |
| MonkeyDust | addressed wrong person, apologies | 10:12 |
| bekks | raven: VirtualBox: www.virtualbox.org | 10:12 |
| raven | tyvm | 10:12 |
| cfhowlett | raven, better than? subjective. virtualbox is a good virtualizer opttion | 10:12 |
| grahamsavage | MonkeyDust: english | 10:12 |
| grahamsavage | oh no worries | 10:13 |
| bl4ckdu5t | What happened was that I put my external hard disk drive in a windows computer with the nimda virus which created readme.eml files in all my folders | 10:13 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: Then just pust readme.eml into the cvommand above instead of the filename placeholder. | 10:13 |
| grahamsavage | bl4ckdu5t: oh how annoying | 10:14 |
| grahamsavage | bl4ckdu5t: that's probably pretty safe then as readme.eml is fairly unique | 10:14 |

| inroel | hello everyone, powering on the PC, the start of my desktop deviates from normal in a variety of ways; i.e. sometimes the screen remains purple, and only proceeds when I do ctrl+alt+del to desktop login, or sometimes when restarting (not sure also when turning off and on) it shows command line where it is supposed to lead to login screen, and when I then do ctrl+alt+f7 it carries out a restart process..in other times it just got stuck at login window after | 10:32 |
| inroel | entering password and it then either logged in with ctrl+alt+del, or by pressing long at power button..though these symptoms bear a degree of vagueness, could you maybe have a hint at what the problem may be? | 10:32 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: Please keep it in the channel. | 10:40 |
| bl4ckdu5t | ok | 10:41 |
| bl4ckdu5t | I need a clearer explanation of the command: "find / -type f -name nameofthe.file -exec echo {} \;" that was given to me earlier | 10:42 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: At which part? | 10:42 |
| bl4ckdu5t | "-type f" and "-name" do not appear anywhere in the man of find | 10:43 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: They do. | 10:43 |
| bl4ckdu5t | also the "/" after the find command | 10:43 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: The / is the starting point of the search. | 10:43 |
| bl4ckdu5t | ok I think I understand | 10:44 |
| bl4ckdu5t | one more thing why is the type f? | 10:45 |
| bekks | bl4ckdu5t: Because you are searching _f_iles. | 10:45 |
| bl4ckdu5t | Thanks! | 10:46 |

| shadej | ? | 11:27 |
| anonee | bibi32 http://www.intdblog.com/2009/09/grub-2-graphical-boot-tips-to-set.html but I suggest that you use the installation CD or flash or whatever you have to boot in live mode and see if your display works, and check whether you're in 2d or 3d mode. | 11:29 |

| ctw | Hi! A while ago I changed my keyboard layout from the command line using setxkbmap and now this is the only way I can change the keyboard layout (I used to be able to do it with the KDE keyboard indicator in the task bar). I'd love to get the functionality back to change the layout with the widget in the task bar ... any ideas what I need to do to accomplisht this? | 11:35 |
| sharperguy | Where can I git clone the latest kernel source tree, and also how many MB would it be? | 11:35 |
| bibi32 | anonee: I don't fully understand what's explained on that link, should I change "VGA console modes"? | 11:35 |
| bibi32 | anonee: I've just managed to get into my session, I've holded shift during boot, then booted in "graphical recovery mode", now I see the desktop with a low resolution, and it's not getting black, is there some logs or something I should take a look at? | 11:38 |
| === SoulOfTheInterne is now known as ToBeFree | ||
| anonee | bibi32 I don't know actually, but I suggest that you try the live mode, and then google how to know whether you're in unity 2d or 3d mode, then depending on the results you may find that installing 12.04 is best for your hardware. | 11:41 |
| bibi32 | anonee: based on descriptions in http://askubuntu.com/questions/62001/am-i-using-unity-or-unity-2d, I'd say I'm using unity 3d | 11:45 |

| naveen_ | how to install windows 7 on /dev/sda8 | 11:47 |
| naveen_ | ple | 11:47 |
| naveen_ | please help me? | 11:47 |
| naveen_ | i can't install windows 7 over my ubuntu | 11:47 |
| MonkeyDust | naveen_ ask in ##windows how to install windows | 11:48 |
| naveen_ | didn't u have any idea | 11:48 |
| naveen_ | about that | 11:48 |
| MonkeyDust | naveen_ what is windows? | 11:48 |
| streulma | are there Macbook Pro Retina users here? I try to switch from Mac to Ubuntu | 11:48 |
| craigbass1976 | is it an Ubuntu, a Xubuntu, or an app specific (might be worse with some, I can't tell yet) behavior -- when I try to open a file, I'm not shown something like the last directory I was in, or sometimes even the directory I'm in currently (like if I already have a file open) This is a pain when I have to go browsing through the file tree so much after hitting the open button. | 11:48 |
| anonee | so... anybody got an idea about how to control the volume of individual apps under 12.04? | 11:48 |
| naveen_ | i mean i want to install windows 7 over on of the sda partition | 11:49 |
| naveen_ | but i can't do | 11:49 |
| bl4ckdu5t | naveen_: Do you want to install windows as a virtual machine on your Ubuntu? | 11:49 |
| craigbass1976 | naveen_, traditionally (and I haven't dual booted in years -- I think I last did it with '98 on my own PC) windows needs to go on first | 11:49 |
| MonkeyDust | anonee system settings > Sound > applications | 11:49 |
| naveen_ | no actually i dont wan't that | 11:49 |
| naveen_ | i wanna make dual boot | 11:49 |
| naveen_ | with ubuntuj | 11:49 |
| streulma | is there a reason why I switch over from Mac to Ubuntu? | 11:50 |
| craigbass1976 | naveen_, have you formatted /dev/sd8 to be blank, with no filesystem even? Sometimes when you format ntfs from ubuntu Windows still has a hissy and won't see the partition | 11:50 |
| anonee | MonkeyDust WOW! and this got a memory? | 11:50 |
| MonkeyDust | anonee not sure what you mean | 11:51 |
| streulma | Is Ubuntu better than Mac ? | 11:51 |
| bazhang | !ot | streulma | 11:52 |
| ubottu | streulma: #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! | 11:52 |
| MonkeyDust | streulma depends on what you like most | 11:52 |
| anonee | MonkeyDust I mean does it save the volume setting till next session? nvm I'll just try that, but thank you! | 11:52 |
| MonkeyDust | anonee it does :) | 11:52 |
| naveen_ | so what i need to do | 11:53 |
| streulma | I mean I have a retina and want to know if that's compatible with Ubuntu | 11:53 |
| bibi32 | anonee: it's RV730 PRO [Radeon HD 4650] | 11:53 |
| MonkeyDust | streulma use a live dvd or usb and try it, to find out | 11:54 |
| ikonia | streulma: there are known font issues | 11:54 |
| lord4163 | streulma: Ubuntu runs well on Macs AFAIK | 11:54 |
| ikonia | streulma: the dots per inch cause a problem for the fonts | 11:54 |
| craigbass1976 | naveen_, I don't know who else is coaching you, but I'd wipe the partition of everything (including a filesystem) and see if Windows will install on it. You will probably have to fix the boot loader if things are the same as they were years ago | 11:54 |
| streulma | ikonia: is it to solving ? | 11:55 |
| ikonia | streulma: not at this time | 11:55 |
| anonee | bibi32 again, try the live session, experience with the performance, until you know for sure what's best for your hardware :D | 11:55 |
| Skeptix | Hi, I randomly have an irq error that breaks my dvb card. I would like to automatically reboot my computer after that error. What would be the simplest way to do that? | 11:55 |
| streulma | ikonia: what to do then ? Not run Ubuntu? :) | 11:56 |
| ikonia | streulma: I believe that's the current solution, or accept the limitation | 11:56 |
| Skeptix | Right now with my noob skills, I would go for a cron script that check if "dmesg" outputs the error | 11:57 |
| karab44 | Hello | 11:58 |
| karab44 | I have a question: When I type users in terminal I see: karab44 karab44. Is this correct? Why account is doubled? I am on 1204desktop | 11:59 |
| karab44 | users command | 11:59 |
| lord4163 | streulma: so next time you don't have to buy proprietary expensive closed laggy hardware/software :) | 12:00 |
| karab44 | anybody? | 12:03 |
| craigbass1976 | I'm kind of curious -- is what I was telling naveen still true? Windows needs to generally go on to a drive first, and if it went on second you have to go back and fix grub? | 12:03 |
| streulma | craigbass1976: yes update-grub will find Windows :) | 12:04 |
| craigbass1976 | karab44, sounds like users shows everyone logged into the system. I was in a terminal, did su - to someone else, but still only saw the user that fired up the terminal when I typed users. If I did a ctrl alt f1 and logged in, THEN typed users, I saw both. Are you in twice somehow? | 12:05 |
| karab44 | I am logged in only in xsession | 12:09 |
| karab44 | but wait I discussing it already on #linux | 12:09 |
| karab44 | ok solved | 12:11 |
| karab44 | it was because I was using gnome-terminal | 12:11 |
| karab44 | and xsession | 12:11 |

| ignacio | ikonia: why? | 13:42 |
| ikonia | ignacio: what ? | 13:43 |
| ignacio | ikonia: why shouldn't you ssh as root? | 13:43 |
| bekks | ignacio: It is a severe security issue. | 13:43 |
| ikonia | because it's locked by default, so you are making a consious effort to unlock the account and unlock your sshd config to an open config | 13:43 |
| ignacio | ikonia: besides the default config issue, it it any less safe than non-root ssh + su? | 13:44 |
| ikonia | ignacio: su shouldn't work | 13:44 |
| ikonia | ignacio: yes, ssh'ing directly as root means your root account is open to attack | 13:44 |
| bekks | ignacio: su doesnt work unless you made the same effort to unlock your root account. | 13:45 |
| ignacio | bekks: by unlocking root you mean assigning a password to it right? | 13:45 |
| bekks | ignacio: Yes. | 13:45 |
| ikonia | it's actually a locked account, and it's disabled in the ssh config | 13:45 |

| co-XZist | question - Is there any driver for ATI x1500 video 32bit for UBuntu 12 | 15:25 |
| co-XZist | having a real hard time finding it | 15:26 |
| ibran | Does anyone know anything about setting up multiple video cards with ubuntu? It's black screening if the second card is connected | 15:26 |
| PatrickDickey | co-XZist: Did you check on AMD's site by chance? And is the card still supported? | 15:26 |
| user1337 | PatrickDickey, No, I see not just the difference in size of the installation between desktop and server disk (~ 700MB for both) | 15:26 |
| PatrickDickey | user1337: If I had to guess, they include the desktop (Unity) bits on the server disc, but they don't install them by default. It's just a guess though, as I haven't compared the two isos. | 15:30 |
| ibran | user1337 what was the question? | 15:30 |
| ibran | i am familiar with ubuntu server edition | 15:30 |
| Greylocks | user1337: usually servers installs have no DE just text interface | 15:31 |
| user1337 | Hello, I would like to know where the non-size difference between the .iso desktop and server comes. servers are not normally lighter? | 15:31 |
| user1337 | ibran, * | 15:31 |
| teachme | error mounting etc/fstab | 15:31 |
| teachme | thats the error think its a permission thing? | 15:31 |
| teachme | what should permission on that file be | 15:31 |
| utusan | user1337: just look at the manifest file on the download page | 15:31 |
| ibran | im not sure why the iso size matters, its the intalled size you want. server edition doesn't install a gui as standard, that the main differece you will first notice | 15:31 |
| PatrickDickey | ibran: I think user1337 is asking why they're the same size, if the server is supposed to be a lighter install. | 15:32 |
| wilee-nilee | teachme, Mounting fstab, its a file. | 15:32 |
| teachme | i get error cannot mount etc/fstab hit s to skip mounting or m for recovery | 15:32 |

| teachme | any ideas to fix ? | 15:33 |
| co-XZist | yes I checke AMD | 15:33 |
| wilee-nilee | teachme, You sure its not a notation in fstab like a partition or swap? | 15:33 |

| skorasaurus-alt | usr13, right. | 16:04 |

| skorasaurus-alt | usr13, updated the pastebin | 16:06 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: Probably need to do chmod 755 /media/ubuntu;chmod 755 /media/ubuntu/nitro | 16:06 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: (Not sure why it wouldn't be correct permissons already but...) | 16:07 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: (We have now way of knowing unless you tell us.) | 16:07 |
| co-XZist | PatrickDickey: So you are saying that that I have to use the built in driver ? Or is there another that I can install ? | 16:08 |
| PatrickDickey | co-XZist: If the built-in is the open source one, then that's your option. Or you have to use an older version of Ubuntu (which isn't recommended). | 16:08 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: But, why do you need users to access the files from liveCD in the first place? | 16:08 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: http://pastebin.ca/2441275 looks same as before. | 16:09 |
| syntac | i have two monitors, but their physical positions are different than graphical (i have to scroll to the right on my right monitor to get over to my left monitor) | 16:09 |
| syntac | where can i change this? | 16:09 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: But if it is one line, you can just send it here, no need for pastebin | 16:09 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: You only need pastebin if it is multiple lines or very long. | 16:10 |
| PatrickDickey | syntac: in Display options maybe? You should be able to choose which one is the primary monitor. | 16:10 |
| syntac | PatrickDickey, i'm using xmonad. in unity it works fine | 16:10 |
| ibran | Is anyone here using/know how to setup multiple graphics cards? | 16:11 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: If you were to tell us your end goal, we might be albe to help you better. | 16:11 |
| usr13 | skorasaurus-alt: If the goal is just to backup the files, just do it, check to make sure they are there and you are good to go, (there are no user or file permission issues on the fat32 filesystem). | 16:12 |
| syntac | PatrickDickey, i got it, used xrandr | 16:13 |
| PatrickDickey | syntac: Glad to hear that you got it worked out. Honestly, I'd never heard of xmonad until now, so now I'm looking at it. | 16:13 |

| grakovne | Morning! | 16:17 |
| InterWeb | What is best editor for python ? | 16:18 |
| sam113101 | vim | 16:18 |
| map | i lie nano | 16:18 |
| teliov19 | komodo is good | 16:19 |
| ibran | InterWeb: define best | 16:19 |
| map | although noone else seems to | 16:19 |
| grakovne | Geany anyway! | 16:19 |
| ibran | InterWeb: do you need things like autocompletion ? | 16:19 |
| map | ah | 16:19 |
| map | basic editor wont do that | 16:19 |
| InterWeb | irban , yes | 16:20 |
| map | What about kate - i used to like that | 16:20 |
| map | dunno if it's still included in KDE? although this is gnome version | 16:20 |
| PatrickDickey | I'd say it depends on what you're doing. Komodo is good, but if I remember right, it's not free. Otherwise any text editor will do the job. | 16:20 |
| map | used to use Kate for writing code at uni | 16:20 |
| ibran | InterWeb: pycharm seems popular. it has autocomplete, integrated debugger and it can also read and autocomplete your database schema. Are you after a full IDE or just an editor? | 16:21 |
| * PatrickDickey uses nano with code highlighting, gedit, or notepad++ in wine. | 16:21 | |
| map | ya i like notepad++ | 16:21 |
| map | i like nano whys everyone love vim so much? | 16:21 |
| jarope | hi all wonder if I could get some help | 16:21 |
| jarope | I am running saucy and seem to have a xorg/nvidia issue | 16:21 |
| grakovne | notepad++ is not GNU way. Why not vim or geany? | 16:22 |
| teliov19 | there is a free version of komodo (komodo edit), | 16:22 |
| teliov19 | vim is cool tho | 16:22 |
| ibran | notepad++ is open source | 16:22 |
| InterWeb | Is there anything to add auto-completion to vim ? | 16:22 |
| teliov19 | that would be nice, auto complete to vim' | 16:22 |
| ibran | in fact i think npp is gnu licenced? not sure on that though. i think it uses the same editor lib that sublime is based on | 16:22 |
| jarope | I think the problem is I ran nvidia-settings and after reboot just get either the low graphics mode box OR can login but get just a black screen. this is what I have at the moment using ctl+alt+_t still boots the terminal | 16:22 |
| jarope | and from there I was able to run xchat | 16:23 |
| map | so why no nano again why just vim | 16:23 |
| grakovne | Nowhy. If you like it - use it | 16:23 |
| InterWeb | map , Does it have auto-complection? | 16:24 |
| ibran | map: Nano's OK but lacks some of the advanced features of vim. also vim is part of all *nix distros so you wont ever not have it. Of course, use wahtever editor you prefer | 16:24 |
| jarope | I am guessing I need to remove xorg.conf or similar? but not sure as in X11 there are only the .backup and .failsafe files | 16:24 |
| POVaddct | InterWeb: try ctrl-p and ctrl-n in vim while typing a word | 16:24 |
| ibran | nano doesnt have a repl though, that's a problem for me. i need a repl. | 16:25 |
| PatrickDickey | InterWeb: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=850 pydiction maybe? (Autocompletion for python in vim) | 16:25 |
| InterWeb | PatrickDickey, Thank you | 16:25 |
| InterWeb | POVaddct, Thank you | 16:25 |
| PatrickDickey | InterWeb: No problem. | 16:25 |
| ibran | well i dont "need" a repl but it slows me up a lot, missing it | 16:25 |
| PatrickDickey | vim is old-school (because it's basically always been around). | 16:26 |
| jhutchins | WTF is a "repl"? | 16:27 |
| jarope_ | so any saucy graphics ppl able to help? | 16:28 |
| ibran | jhutchins: read eval print loop i.e. interpreter. e.g. C++ repl makes wriign c++ easier for me, etc | 16:28 |
| usr13 | map: notepad? I don't know about that, (most of us here are Ubuntu users). As to the nano vs vim, well, it's a matter of opinion, some think nano is more user friendly, others think vi is more feature rich and so it's just a matter of opinion. | 16:28 |
| PatrickDickey | jarope_: You probably want the #ubuntu+1 channel for saucy questions. | 16:28 |
| jarope_ | PatrickDickey, thanks | 16:28 |
| map | yea someone else said notepad++ using wine | 16:29 |
| jhutchins | ibran: 'splains why I don't recognize it. I did a lot of my programming on punch cards. | 16:29 |
| InterWeb | How do I can add interpreter to vim ? | 16:29 |
| map | ;] | 16:29 |
| jhutchins | InterWeb: You may be interested in emacs. I believe it has those options. | 16:29 |
| bl4ckdu5t | when I do pm-hibernate most times and I turn my PC back on, it takes time for it to be accessible | 16:29 |
| === gordonjc1 is now known as gordonjcp | ||
| dr_willis | emacs has everything. | 16:30 |
| usr13 | map: I use vi / vim and am quite happy with it, don't need notepad but am not opposed to nano either. | 16:30 |
| zykotick9 | PatrickDickey: re:vim, actually vi is part of POSIX so it's on every "unix-like" system, emacs is not. but yes, it's been around forever too ;) | 16:30 |
| jhutchins | bl4ckdu5t: Are you suspending to disk? | 16:30 |
| InterWeb | jhutchins, I read somewhere that It is hard to learn :/ | 16:30 |
| map | ah | 16:30 |
| map | i always preferred nano | 16:30 |
| map | guess its just preference | 16:30 |
| usr13 | map: vimtutor may change your mind. | 16:31 |
| AvgvaTest | hi | 16:31 |
| * zykotick9 +1 on "vimtutuor" tutorial. | 16:31 | |
| dr_willis | nano is a pen-knife vi is a big swiss army knife | 16:31 |
| gordonjcp | ed is the standard editor! | 16:31 |
| map | zzz almost work time sheesh | 16:31 |
| dr_willis | emacs is the kitchen silverware and junk drawer | 16:31 |
| PatrickDickey | I agree map. I like the simplicity of moving the cursor and then editing the line that nano has. I'm sure there are ways to make vim work like that, but it's standard in nano. | 16:31 |
| gordonjcp | jhutchins: punch cards, y'say | 16:32 |
| gordonjcp | jhutchins: which machine? | 16:32 |
| usr13 | good analogy dr_willis | 16:32 |
| map | ya the simplicity is for me :) | 16:32 |
| InterWeb | another thing , I wanted to install pydictaion for vim but I can't find vimrc file , Where is that on ubuntu? | 16:32 |
| dr_willis | !info fte | 16:32 |
| ubottu | fte (source: fte): Text editor for programmers - base package. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.50.2b6-1 (raring), package size 87 kB, installed size 323 kB | 16:32 |
| gordonjcp | I use gedit for pretty much everything these days | 16:32 |
| Obi1 | hello | 16:33 |
| dr_willis | InterWeb: use locate vimrc | 16:33 |
| PatrickDickey | InterWeb: It's in your home directory. the filename is .vimrc (if you've created one). | 16:33 |
| zykotick9 | InterWeb: try ~/.vimrc it might not be there by default? | 16:33 |
| dr_willis | system wide in /etc/ id say | 16:33 |
| InterWeb | that is not in my home folder , | 16:34 |
| * PatrickDickey thankfully I never had to deal with punch cards. But I've heard enough horror stories about them from COBOL instructors... | 16:34 | |
| InterWeb | I have just .vim in my home | 16:34 |
| Obi1 | how can I install Gnome 2.0 desktop on 12.04 ubuntu | 16:34 |
| dr_willis | each user can have a. .vimrc | 16:34 |
| PatrickDickey | InterWeb: You can create one then. | 16:34 |
| ibran | well assembler is mostly similiar to punch cards, not sure why there are so many horror stories. | 16:35 |
| dr_willis | Obi1: use the classic mode stuff | 16:35 |
| dr_willis | !nounity | 16:35 |
| 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 | 16:35 |
| InterWeb | PatrickDickey, I have a .vimrc in my etc/vim , Do I need to creat another one in home ? | 16:35 |
| PatrickDickey | InterWeb: nope. copy that one to your home, and edit it to whatever you need. | 16:35 |
| PatrickDickey | ibran: The horror stories were things like having 50 punch cards, and dropping them while you're walking down the hall. | 16:36 |
| Obi1 | hi willis | 16:36 |
| usr13 | Obi1: Ever tried xfce? | 16:36 |
| zykotick9 | InterWeb: i hope your /etc/vim/vimrc is better then mine... (it might be! different systems) | 16:36 |
| usr13 | Obi1: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop #Try it, you'll like it. | 16:37 |
| PatrickDickey | Obi1: Or LXDE (lubuntu-desktop)? | 16:37 |
| ibran | PatrickDickey: They get mixed up? Wsa it possible to label them with a pen? | 16:37 |
| Obi1 | i did try all i love gnome 2.0 | 16:37 |
| dr_willis | gnome 2 is dead. | 16:37 |
| PatrickDickey | ibran: That's the suggestion the instructor made. Draw a diagonal line across the top of the cards. That way if you drop them, you can put them back in order. | 16:37 |
| dr_willis | theres fallback/vlassic modes or other desktops to try | 16:38 |
| jhutchins | gordonjcp: Y'know, I'm not entirely sure. Pretty sure we fed some to a 370, but the one that did Fortran I don't even remember if I knew. | 16:38 |
| ibran | so these were horror stories about human laziness or incompetence, rather than actul punchcard tech? | 16:38 |
| usr13 | Obi1: gnome 2 is no more. Try xfce | 16:38 |
| usr13 | Obi1: What do you mean, you did try all? | 16:39 |
| zykotick9 | Obi1: gnome2 is "dead", move on... | 16:39 |
| PatrickDickey | ibran: If I remember right, sometimes it was hit and miss whether they worked. If the card punching machine didn't punch the holes completely, you could have issues. Or just the fact that if you had an error in your program, you had to repunch every card. | 16:39 |
| Obi1 | i don't like xfce , KDE, Cinamon is ok | 16:39 |
| ibran | pucgcards before my time. i started with 28 inch disks and tape drives | 16:40 |
| PatrickDickey | Obi1: You could always use something like Unity with Docky. | 16:40 |
| zykotick9 | Obi1: <ot> i "feel" ya! gnome2 was my fav DE of all times. i'm sad about it too, but i've moved on. you should as well ;) | 16:40 |
| ibran | however i do build mechanical memory circuits in minecraft, which are basically gigantic jacard looms ;-) | 16:40 |
| Obi1 | UNITY is the worst desktop evoroment to tell some1 to switch from Windows is hard for windows user to work on it | 16:41 |
| PatrickDickey | ibran: Everything I had to do was all on a mainframe. So, I just started with a dumb terminal. Well except for the AppleSoft BASIC stuff. That was done with 3.5" floppies and 5 1/4" floppies. | 16:41 |
| Obi1 | i help people to switch to Linux | 16:41 |
| dr_willis | so do i. most have no issues with unity here. | 16:41 |
| dr_willis | or i set them up with lubuntu | 16:41 |
| skorasaurus-alt | hi usr13, back, I had to help out my dad for a few minutes. my current hard drive, encrypted with ecryptfs , is beginning to fail, it has a couple hundred bad sectors. | 16:42 |
| ibran | I know i asked before but that was 1/2 hour ago: does anyone know how to get multiple graphics cards working with ubuntu? | 16:42 |
| PatrickDickey | Obi1: Then have them try LXDE. It's almost the exact same look as XP's Classic (or Vista and 7's Classic). | 16:42 |
| skorasaurus-alt | unfortunately, my backup drive was last backed up about a couple weeks ago. | 16:42 |
| skorasaurus-alt | and there are a few files on my hard drive that I'd like to rescue which were recently modified. | 16:42 |
| jhutchins | "Smart" guys didn't number their card because that gave them extra space for code. Eventually they got dropped, and they discovered that numbering was worth the loss of space. I did Fortran, Cobol, and RPG II/III on them. | 16:42 |
| skorasaurus-alt | (firefox profile, etc). | 16:42 |
| ikonia | ibran: in what way "get working" | 16:42 |
| dr_willis | ibran: optimus stuff? or 2 seperate cards in a desktop? | 16:42 |
| Obi1 | brb | 16:42 |
| jhutchins | Actually, COBOL had just moved off of them but it's still a positional language. | 16:42 |
| ibran | ikonia: black screen if the second card is inserted. it starts up fine but when gdm? lightdm? (dont remember which one ubuntu uses) screen goes back | 16:43 |
| jhutchins | ibran: You mean multi-monitor, or laptop multi-drive intel/radeon? | 16:44 |
| skorasaurus-alt | so, unfortunately, with ecryptfs, I have to use the same user name to access the files which created under that user. | 16:44 |
| ikonia | ibran: how are you trying to use them, seperate cards, sli/x-fire, etc etc | 16:44 |
| nabblet | hi, how can i change that grey loging background in ubuntu 12.10? | 16:44 |
| ibran | jhutchins: I mean the machine has two identical nvidia graphics cards | 16:44 |
| ibran | ikonia: it's an SLI configuration | 16:44 |
| skorasaurus-alt | so, under livecd, I created the same user name, I have access to the files. | 16:44 |
| ikonia | ibran: that's not going to work | 16:44 |
| nabblet | i tried different solutions, but they didn't get me any further | 16:45 |
| skorasaurus-alt | but I need to copy them to another drive but that is where i'm stuck. | 16:45 |
| ibran | ikonia: Ubuntu doesn't support SLI? | 16:45 |
| ikonia | ibran: linux doesn't really - nvidia keep trying to add/update it in the propritary drivers, but it really causes too many problems | 16:45 |
| PatrickDickey | skorasaurus-alt: Have you tried chrooting into the installation on the hard drive? | 16:46 |
| PatrickDickey | skorasaurus-alt: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-mounting-your-encrypted-home-from-livecd/ (not exactly your situation, but it could work) | 16:46 |
| ibran | ikonia: Do you know of any good resources used by tinkerers who are prepared to invest some time into fiddlign with their systems to get that working? | 16:47 |
| jhutchins | ibran: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=53966 | 16:47 |

| dennis | Hello everybody, how can I make script that presses return and nothing else? | 17:28 |
| === SchrodingersScat is now known as Guest342 | ||
| PatrickDickey | dennis, why do you want a script that presses return? | 17:33 |
| === Guest42539 is now known as callie | ||
| dennis | PatrickDickey: I have a button here that works as a tiny keyboard: it presses the superkey+R and then ecobutton | 17:34 |
| dennis | It's a Windows thingey that let your PC go in a deep standby with a press on the button | 17:35 |
| dennis | I want to trigger the 'Run program' utility in xfce to trigger a script called Ecobutton to let that script press return | 17:36 |
| dennis | Because I find the return key an 'activation' key and I would like to trigger it from a big button | 17:37 |
| PatrickDickey | Interesting. So, basically your button would call the script, and it would put your computer into standby mode? | 17:37 |
| dennis | PatrickDickey: Yes | 17:38 |
| dennis | But I want it for other purposes | 17:38 |
| Gorrtack | Hi all | 17:38 |
| dennis | But I guess you don know how to write the script... :D | 17:38 |
| Gorrtack | are there any alternatives for sam broadcaster in Ubuntu? | 17:38 |
| PatrickDickey | Nope. Sorry. I thought maybe I'd be able to give you an alternative to that though. You might want to check in the #bash channel if you're looking for a bash script to do it, or #python if you want it in python. | 17:39 |
| dennis | Gorrtack: http://alternativeto.net/software/sam-broadcaster/ | 17:40 |
| nzdreamer | Hello everyone. I'm looking for support after trying a live usb ubuntu Linux distro and now am having trouble booting back into windows 8. | 17:40 |
| wilee-nilee | nzdreamer, Did you change anything in the bios? | 17:41 |
| dennis | wilee-nilee: I don't want to be over-preceise, but Win8 pc's run on EFI | 17:42 |
| Gorrtack | dennis: thank u. I tried to configure IDJC, but can't link pulseaudio with jackd =( | 17:42 |
| nzdreamer | Thanks for the reply. I have a machine with a UEFI bios. I used the boot manager at start up to select the usb drive and selected the UEFI portion to start ubuntu | 17:42 |
| dennis | Gorrtack: Ask in ubuntu_studio | 17:43 |
| kostkon | Gorrtack, check out AirTime | 17:43 |
| wilee-nilee | nzdreamer, W8 has a hybrid hibernate, did you shutdown completely to get to this boot manager? | 17:43 |
| Gorrtack | kostkon: AirTime? What is this? | 17:43 |
| dennis | Gorrtack: I had a problem with recording sound and they gave me a lot of hints | 17:43 |
| kostkon | Gorrtack, radio management and broadcasting app. | 17:44 |
| linuxuz3r | gnome becomes unresponsive if i click on an icon it takes a while to get highlighted. and when i switch to a different window it takes a while to get focus. how do i fix this? | 17:44 |
| wilee-nilee | linuxuz3r, Is the hardware up to the task of running ubuntu? | 17:45 |
| kostkon | Gorrtack, another easy option is mixxx. it supports broadcasting over the net | 17:45 |
| linuxuz3r | wilee-nilee, yes | 17:45 |
| nzdreamer | Yes I have tried to start using several different ways (restart, turn off computer completely, turn of completely and pull the plug) but none of them seem to launch windows correctly. I will get the Auto repair and have tried all the options including advanced options. I have even rebuilt the MBR and run chech disk. | 17:46 |
| wilee-nilee | linuxuz3r, You have the correct graphic drivers? | 17:46 |
| Gorrtack | kostkon: that's what I need! broatcast my skype, player and microphone to the remote Icecast2 server | 17:46 |
| PatrickDickey | nzdreamer: So you installed ubuntu then? | 17:47 |
| neopsyche | hi. can anyone help me rsync server? | 17:48 |
| wilee-nilee | nzdreamer, What I wonder is if you shutdown completelt to run the ubuntu if you had it in this hibernate that would be a problem, and actually since you have not installed ubuntu just booted it this is a windows problem, so you might ask on ##windows as well. | 17:48 |
| linuxuz3r | wilee-nilee, yes do i need to upgrade the graphics drivers | 17:48 |
| neopsyche | not sure on some commands.. im a windoze refugee | 17:48 |
| neopsyche | found tutorial http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-use-rsync-transfer-mirror-files-directories.html | 17:49 |
| neopsyche | also.. how to remote ssh from linux? in windows I use putty | 17:49 |
| dennis | I just made a script in the path /bin/ecobutton, but when I enter the command ecobutton, the terminal says '-bash: /bin/ecobutton: Access denied' | 17:49 |
| sam113101 | neopsyche: using ssh | 17:49 |
| dennis | neopsyche: type ssh in terminal | 17:49 |

| neopsyche | can I rsync? | 17:49 |
| ocooel | Looking for help regarding upgrade to 12.04.3 + 13.04 HWE. | 17:50 |
| suhas_ | hiii guys | 17:50 |
| wilee-nilee | linuxuz3r, upgrade meaning, what you have is maybe the problem and your sure, or a guess, it helps if we know your reasoning. | 17:50 |
| suhas_ | hii | 17:50 |
| neopsyche | ssh says no route to host | 17:51 |
| linuxuz3r | wilee-nilee, a guess | 17:51 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, you have to go through 12.10 basically, the nupgrade manager will do it if you go to the software sources and set it to all upgrades | 17:51 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, 12.04 is supported till 2017 though are you sure this is the best plan? | 17:52 |
| ocooel | wilee-nilee: Doesn't it just upgrade the kernel from 3.5 to 3.8..? | 17:53 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, No, apps will be upgraded and the system in places, and the support time changes | 17:53 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, the kernel will go to 3.8 yes. | 17:54 |
| nzdreamer | Oh interesting though about booting from a hyb state to run ubuntu from a live USB... | 17:55 |
| nzdreamer | What can I check to see if this was the case? | 17:55 |
| wilee-nilee | nzdreamer, I would ask in ##windows this is a windows issue really, you have to be registered with freenode though I believe. | 17:56 |
| kostkon | ocooel, instructions are here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 17:57 |
| neopsyche | dennis: no route to host | 17:57 |
| ocooel | wilee-nilee: that sux. | 17:57 |
| wilee-nilee | nzdreamer, If someone knows here they will probably answer, I would just like to see you get the best help is all. | 17:57 |
| kostkon | ocooel, you don't need to dist upgrade. just check the wiki page | 17:57 |
| dennis | neopsyche: I only have little knowledge about ssh. Try the channel #ssh | 17:57 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, This is nothing new, has been this way since the first release. | 17:57 |
| nzdreamer | Thank you for the help. I will try to find my answers at ##windows. Good bye | 17:59 |

| Willdude123 | How could I set up something to stream torrents downloaded via transmission web interface to VLC medía player on my PC (using my ubuntu server) | 18:00 |
| ocooel | kostkon: I've read this. It's where I got the info from. There are no instructions on how to install manually. It says it's not available just through upgrades. This is what I need instruction on | 18:00 |
| === KyleYankan is now known as Morbo | ||
| Willdude123 | Doesn't have to be automatic | 18:00 |
| ocooel | kostkon: It's not as simple as running linux-headers-generic-lts-raring etc, is it..? | 18:00 |
| kostkon | ocooel, it says "For example to install the Quantal hardware enablement packages in Precise, please run the following command:" etc, replace quantal with raring | 18:01 |
| kostkon | ocooel, it is. what else would you need? | 18:02 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, You want to notice the warnings on the ennoblement stack, read very carefully. | 18:02 |

| sere | is it possible to a playlist sync rhythmbox or banshee with a andriod phonein ubuntu 12.4.3? i can mount it it and get rhythmbox to see it but it wont sync for some reason | 18:03 |
| ocooel | kostkon: That is all. Will raring supersede precise..? | 18:03 |
| kostkon | ocooel, it will update your grub automatically | 18:03 |
| kostkon | ocooel, yes | 18:03 |
| Willdude123 | So I want to stream downloaded torrents to VLC | 18:03 |
| ocooel | kostkon: Meaning I lose the point of having precise..? | 18:04 |
| PatrickDickey | Willdude123: have you looked into something like mdlna? (might be spelled a bit differently) | 18:04 |
| Willdude123 | Might do. VLC might be able to run headlessly. | 18:04 |
| kostkon | ocooel, you still have precise, but with the updated kernel and X. that is all | 18:04 |
| linuxuz3r | for future reference does official upgrade breaks your ubuntu installation? | 18:04 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, So what is your reasoning on the raring kernel needs? | 18:05 |
| PatrickDickey | linuxuz3r: It shouldn't. But if you're upgrading a system that doesn't meet the hardware requirements, it might. | 18:05 |
| ocooel | wilee-nilee: Odd number kernel versions are experimental and even one are stable. | 18:06 |
| Ampelbein | linuxuz3r: In very rare cases, updates have been breaking existing installations. But the issue were always detected very fast and either the upgrades pulled or a fix issued. | 18:06 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, Really I have been using ubuntu for 8 years and never heard that, source please. | 18:06 |
| PatrickDickey | wilee-nilee: I've seen that on some kernel forums. But, I think it's more the minor build number than anything else. | 18:08 |
| xyz123 | is there such an online tool which will calculate and tell you what partition is going to be what size based on your hd size? | 18:08 |

| BluesKaj | ocooel, , that's a new one on me too , never heard that ever mentioned about stable/unstable kernel numbers before , can you give us the source of your info ? | 18:09 |
| Ampelbein | wilee-nilee: It's been changed in 2004, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_versioning#Odd-numbered_versions_for_development_releases | 18:09 |
| wilee-nilee | PatrickDickey, Sounds like opinions, and not hardly factual | 18:10 |
| wilee-nilee | Ampelbein, Between the 1.0 and the 2.6.x series, | 18:10 |
| Ampelbein | wilee-nilee: Yes. | 18:10 |

| linuxuz3r | wilee-nilee, thanks | 18:14 |
| linuxuz3r | you should say np | 18:14 |
| wilee-nilee | ocooel, This reasong is not correct and leaves you vulnerable to breaking the setup and not getting support, just a heads up is all. | 18:15 |
| sere | is it possible to a playlist sync rhythmbox or banshee with a andriod phonein ubuntu 12.4.3? i can mount it it and get rhythmbox to see it but it wont sync for some reason | 18:15 |
| wilee-nilee | sere, Works in 13.04 with rhythmbox just setting the edit-preferences-music-music files are located in. | 18:16 |
| dman777_alter | i gues that is a no | 18:19 |
| pfifo | DNS setup is such bullcrap lately | 18:19 |
| sere | wilee-nilee: i tried it on my 13.04 box but getting the same errors.. did you have to set up any udev rules? | 18:20 |
| ocooel | kostkon, wilee-nilee, even when checking kernel.org the stable versions are all even and EOL or rc are odd | 18:20 |
| wilee-nilee | seventhsamuari, Not sure on videos, there are beginners books, I forget the exact names though. | 18:20 |
| PatrickDickey | seventhsamuari: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Using+the+terminal+in+linux | 18:21 |
| Ampelbein | ocooel: The next stable kernel will be 3.11 | 18:21 |
| PatrickDickey | The first one says it's a beginners video. | 18:21 |
| wilee-nilee | sere, Nope but it may depend on the android version, I suspect, not sure of the problem. | 18:21 |
| seventhsamuari | PatrickDickey, thanks! | 18:21 |
| PatrickDickey | seventhsamuari: no problem. | 18:21 |
| dman777_alter | hey, how come the open ssh that comes with ubuntu does not have ecc but there is a utility called seccure that does? | 18:21 |
| ikonia | dman777_alter: ecc as in error correction ? | 18:22 |
| dman777_alter | ikonia: no, elliptic curve crypto | 18:22 |
| ocooel | Ampelbein: Can't see 3.8 there anyway. Maybe it's not worth updating HWE and just upgrade 14.04 | 18:22 |
| sere | wilee-nilee: i can mount it if i choose to open folder so i was thinking it wasnt a udev issue.. here are the error i have been getting.. if you dont mind checking it out http://paste.ubuntu.com/6048617/ | 18:23 |
| ikonia | dman777_alter: is there a reason it should be inluded ? is it a build time option or a module you can bolt on (I'm not aware of it) | 18:23 |
| ikonia | ocooel: why are you trying to change your kernel version ? | 18:24 |
| kostkon | ocooel, the raring hwe will install 3.8 http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise-updates/linux-generic-lts-raring | 18:24 |
| wilee-nilee | sere, Hw are you getting the phone to show on 12.04 I had to add a ppa to see a mtp device? | 18:25 |
| kostkon | ocooel, if you download 12.04.3 and do a fresh install you'll get 3.8 anyway. | 18:26 |

| Ampelbein | dman777_alter: "ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -b 521" works here on Ubuntu, what ECC support are you missing? | 18:27 |
| kostkon | ocooel, instructions are there. just replace "quantal" with "raring" | 18:27 |
| wilee-nilee | sere, gMTP did see it but not very useful | 18:27 |
| ikonia | Ampelbein: ah, so it's just one of the cyphers | 18:28 |
| ocooel | Thanks. | 18:29 |
| Ampelbein | ikonia: Yes, it's ECDSA is one of the possible cyphers to use with ECC. | 18:29 |

| terahert | Is that the proper way to go about creating a new user and making it's default shell zsh in ubuntu? | 18:51 |
| Ampelbein | terahert: You can simply pass --shell to adduser | 18:51 |

| terahert | forget it.... I'll just use my tried and true method. | 18:52 |

| bazzer | on precise i just booted with a max_loop=64 to give me more loop devices and loopback mounted 16 iso images, now a pid belonging to gvfs-gdu-volume is taxing the spu at 100%....any ideas? | 18:57 |

| co-XZist | yes it is, just my preference.. I use irssi | 19:02 |
| schultza | oh.. that can be confusing. | 19:02 |
| vaurdan | Does SELinux block outside API connections? | 19:02 |
| schultza | that's console based, co-XZist.. a lot of ppl are not comfortable on the console. | 19:03 |
| vaurdan | do I have to add any iptables or else rules? | 19:03 |
| terahert | Pidgin has horrible IRC handling thanks to broken irc protocol support in libpurple (pigdin backend). I would suggest any7one using it for IRC a lot to swiutch to hexchat or another IRC client of their choice. | 19:03 |

| schultza | lord4163: I think he is saying his selinux is in the way, not iptables. | 19:10 |
| vaurdan | lord4163, can you give me a quick tip? :p | 19:10 |
| schultza | vaurdan: pastebin your "iptables -L" | 19:10 |
| lord4163 | vaurdan: ehm, no just read the last lines, don't know what you try to do? :P | 19:10 |
| schultza | start with the actual kernel level network firewall (iptables). | 19:11 |
| vaurdan | schultza, http://pastebin.com/3qSYcM4s | 19:11 |
| lord4163 | vaurdan: Maybe your server haven't got a DNS configured? | 19:11 |
| vaurdan | it has, I use dig | 19:12 |
| vaurdan | and yum | 19:12 |
| schultza | well, it's not iptables.. there is no deny/drop in there at all. | 19:12 |

| OBI1 | And i love it | 19:15 |
| lord4163 | OBI1: also depending on your target machine, on an old box you don't want to run Unity, GNOME Shell or KDE. | 19:15 |
| schultza | do you know how to temporarily [dis|en]able your SELinux? | 19:16 |
| vaurdan | yes, good idea :p | 19:16 |
| SchrodingersScat | OBI1: I like xfce which goes along with the xubuntu desktop option | 19:16 |
| schultza | if selinux is disabled from blocking anything and iptables is open like i see.. you should be able to ping it.. and this action will show us that it is selinux and you will need to ask the experts of selinux how to fix this. selinux is still quite new at this time though. | 19:17 |
| schultza | and there is an #selinux channel here on freenode. | 19:17 |

| Mekaari_ | depends on what your display manager is, meet. | 19:33 |
| wilee-nilee | Orioa, I see a bug on this, here are some threads to look through. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=GeForce+7150M+ | 19:33 |
| meet | Mekaari_: how do I find that out? | 19:34 |
| Mekaari_ | but usually, you edit .xinitrc in your home directory. | 19:34 |
| Orioa | ty | 19:34 |
| Mekaari_ | meet: open .xinitrc and there should be something like | 19:35 |
| Mekaari_ | exec startxfce4 | 19:35 |
| OerHeks | meet, install openbox, logout, change DE, login | 19:35 |
| Gune | Question, If i got 4 partitions on a laptop using windows 7, and i clear one of them out, put in a ubuntu CD for installing. Can i repartition this empty partition to a slightly smaller size and add a swap partition without damaging the 3 windows partitions with data on them? | 19:35 |
| Mekaari_ | change that to "exec openbox-session" | 19:35 |
| wilee-nilee | Gune, 4 primaries oe 3 and a extended with logical partitions are the limits per HD. | 19:36 |
| wilee-nilee | or* | 19:36 |
| meet | OerHeks: actually I am currently on linux lite which is ubuntu based and uses "heavily modified xfce". btw Mekaari_ I searched for .xinitrc in home but it is not there | 19:36 |
| meet | OerHeks: so when I login there is no option to switch to openbox. | 19:36 |

| Gune | wilee-nilee: ah right, crap. Well, question 2. Can a usb drive run ubuntu well enough to allow for an IDE to run smoothly? An IDE such as netbeans, for c++/c coding and compiling | 19:37 |
| Orioa | i have tried the 173 drivers that is what i am using now but it does not find my other monitor | 19:37 |
| wilee-nilee | meet, there is a #linuxlite channel it is not supported here. | 19:38 |
| OerHeks | Orioa, are you sure you have 173-updates, NOT nvidia-173 ? | 19:38 |
| Orioa | yes | 19:38 |
| meet | wilee-nilee: actually I asked over there but got no reply for a long time. | 19:39 |
| Orioa | i have the additional driver window open | 19:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Gune, A usb is limited by its quality and the speed it can transfer to and from the computer. Many remove the firmware partition and have no problem, or put it in the extended you would add for ubuntu and the swap. | 19:39 |
| wilee-nilee | meet, Bummer, if you get support here it will just be incidental is all, most wont. | 19:40 |
| Orioa | it works fine for the monitor on the laptop but does not let me use an additional monitor | 19:40 |
| lord4163 | Gune: I wouldn't recommend it even on my HDD it's slow :D | 19:40 |
| === raven_ is now known as __raven | ||

| wilee-nilee | thewrath, More than one HD per-chance, no real indications of what you have done as problematic in general. | 19:44 |
| wilee-nilee | ie 64 bit installs | 19:44 |
| thewrath | wilee-nilee: there is only one hard drive on it | 19:44 |

| thewrath | wilee-nilee: I said that Linux Mint all ready boots w/o issue | 19:50 |
| wilee-nilee | thewrath, Sounds more like a graphic driver issue, nomodeset should get you to the desktop to update and install drivers. | 19:50 |

| zooz | hi people | 20:06 |
| wilee-nilee | plusEV, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad you need to state the problems and goals in the end here. | 20:06 |
| zooz | what do you guys use for creating your own local APT repos? | 20:06 |
| zooz | I use reprepro, but it does not support multiple versions of the same package, otherwise it's great | 20:07 |

| wilee-nilee | plusEV, Is not a gui orientated as nice as it is. | 20:08 |
| zooz | bazhang, I use that too for mirroring existing repos. | 20:08 |
| hanasaki | how can I put multiple bootable iso usb images linux example.... on a single usb stick and select which at boot? | 20:08 |
| wilee-nilee | as* | 20:08 |
| zooz | bazhang, but I need a tool for creating repos from scratch for my own packages | 20:08 |
| Ampelbein | zooz: dpkg-scanpackages should do what you want with the "-m" switch. | 20:08 |
| wilee-nilee | hanasaki, I use the multisystem loader seen at pendrivelinux for loading from linux | 20:08 |
| bazhang | zooz, how many packages are we talking | 20:08 |
| zooz | Ampelbein, can it sign packages? | 20:08 |
| flax_ | there is a hundred gig screen capture video file made with gtkrecordmydesktop and I can't locate it, what folder would it most likely be in | 20:09 |
| wilee-nilee | hanasaki, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ | 20:09 |
| zooz | bazhang, around 10-15 new ones per day. So it will be changing constantly | 20:09 |
| bazhang | zooz, perhaps PPA system | 20:09 |
| Orioa | im totally lost.. | 20:10 |
| zooz | bazhang, PPA is public right? I need to host private packages | 20:10 |
| Ampelbein | zooz: Unfortunately dpkg-scanpackages doesn't support signed Release files. | 20:10 |
| Ampelbein | zooz: But you could use apt-ftparchive for that. | 20:11 |
| zooz | thanks | 20:12 |
| flax_ | in what folder do gtk-recordmydesktop files(.ogv) go into by default, if I didnt manually save the file | 20:14 |

| wilee-nilee | plusEV, Not sure myself, you might try the #lubuntu channel as well | 20:15 |

| plusEV | something about openbox, but I do not undrstan what he means. | 20:17 |

| AdvoWork | Quick query - ive had some of my staff write documents for me in libre office, ive seen them and they looked ok, ive opened them on my laptop and the formatting has all gone random, ie photos/bullet points overlap etc, any idea why this could happen, but my lappy and other machines are Ubuntu... | 20:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Opened them in an older version of libreoffice ? | 20:22 |
| === gbyers[Away] is now known as g_byers | ||
| AdvoWork | Dr_Willis, maybe :S i cant check either as at home now | 20:24 |
| Dr_Willis | thats about the only thing i can think of. Unles they are saveing it in some weird way. | 20:24 |
| Dr_Willis | there is a libreoffice channel i belive | 20:24 |
| flax_ | Dr_Willis, there is a large .ogv file on my system that I can't find, it's not in the home folder, what folder are gtk-recordmyscreen files stored by default? | 20:24 |
| daftykins | flax_: "sudo updatedb" "locate ogv" ? | 20:25 |
| Dr_Willis | you mean 'gtk-recordmydesktop' ? | 20:26 |
| flax_ | Dr_Willis, yes | 20:26 |
| Dr_Willis | looks like they save to your home by default. | 20:26 |
| Dr_Willis | but they may have some tmp file they use | 20:26 |
| flax_ | where would the tmp files be | 20:27 |
| Dr_Willis | /tmp/ would be my guess | 20:28 |
| Ampelbein | flax_: Usually in /tmp, unless your $TMPDIR is set to something else | 20:28 |

| Dr_Willis | hmm. If reencoding a video via handbreak. and its a CGI animation, would the x264 Tuneing option of 'Animation' be best? or would that mainly be for the More classic style anime/animation/cartoons? | 20:40 |
| skegeek | Do you have to install Ubuntu via USB to have "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows"? | 20:42 |
| Dr_Willis | skegeek: options should be the same | 20:42 |
| Dr_Willis | biggest issue ive seen with that option. - IF you have 4 primary partions allready made. it may not allow it. | 20:42 |
| skegeek | I tried installing 13.04 via CD, it didn't offer that option, only offered options for partitioninig. | 20:43 |
| skegeek | Does it automatically partition using install alongside windows option? | 20:44 |
| Dr_Willis | personally i would resize/repartion manually. but thats because i tend to know what i want. ;) | 20:45 |
| jhutchins | skegeek: When you are partitioning you can resize the existing Windows partitions. That's what you do for dual boot. | 20:45 |
| Dr_Willis | I tend to let windows resize/shrink its own partions - befor i do the ubuntu install. windows seems a LOT faster at the task | 20:45 |
| BluesKaj | skegeek, yes , it should , but "guided" partitioning is probly safer | 20:45 |
| jhutchins | skegeek: It would be really nice to make a backup before you start messing with it. | 20:46 |
| b0unce | What's the internet daemon in 13.04 (from what I can enable/disable internet services)? | 20:47 |
| Dr_Willis | b0unce: no such thing as far as i know. You manage services via the Upstart settings/scripts | 20:47 |
| Dr_Willis | !upstart | 20:47 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 20:47 |
| AdvoWork | how can i upgrade libreoffice(just this application) in ubuntu 13.04? | 20:48 |
| Dr_Willis | AdvoWork: you want one thats newer then whats in the repos? if so use a PPA. | 20:48 |
| b0unce | Dr_Willis: I remember something such inetd | 20:49 |
| Ampelbein | b0unce: I don't have a 13.04 install handy to check, but isn't the default stil inetutils-inetd? You can do "dpkg -l | grep inetd" to check. | 20:49 |
| Dr_Willis | b0unce: i dont think thats been used for years on ubuntu | 20:49 |
| Dr_Willis | wasent it xinetd ages ago? | 20:49 |
| b0unce | Ampelbein: it gives me "update-inetd" as installed. Where's the conf file? | 20:50 |
| Dr_Willis | changed i mean | 20:50 |
| Dr_Willis | locate inetd | 20:50 |
| Dr_Willis | /etc/inetd.conf | 20:50 |
| b0unce | Dr_Willis: I don't have that file in /etc | 20:50 |
| Ampelbein | b0unce: update-inetd is just a tool to enable/disable entries in /etc/inetd.conf | 20:50 |
| AdvoWork | Dr_Willis, i dont know if im using the latest version anyway, can i do sudo apt-get update libreoffice ? | 20:51 |
| Dr_Willis | my inetd.conf is all... comments.. ;) | 20:51 |
| b0unce | Ampelbein: alright, thanks. I think now it's clear. | 20:51 |
| Dr_Willis | AdvoWork: some weird reason you dont want your whole system up to date? | 20:51 |
| AdvoWork | nopf, true | 20:52 |
| Dr_Willis | makes me wonder what inetd is actually doing. | 20:52 |
| AdvoWork | *nope | 20:52 |
| pfifo | Dr_Willis, taking up space | 20:52 |
| Ampelbein | b0unce: It could be that you don't have any package installed that actually requires a superserver. In which case you could install inetutils-inetd or another. | 20:52 |
| skegeek | I have resized to create Ubuntu partitions, however, partitions always seem to be a bit off of the size I specify. | 20:52 |
| Dr_Willis | i think it got pulled in when i set up fail2ban perhaps | 20:52 |
| Dr_Willis | skegeek: rounding to the nearest sector/clyinder or somthing i recall. | 20:52 |
| Ampelbein | Dr_Willis: It's a server that reacts to connection requests on ports and starts the "real" server. | 20:53 |
| b0unce | Ampelbein: Many thanks. :) | 20:53 |
| Ampelbein | Dr_Willis: It saves memory and cpu due to fewer processes running as servers only get started when they are actually needed. | 20:53 |
| pfifo | skegeek, dont forget 1024 bytes = 1 kb (not 1000) and the filesystem itself requires some space, and 5% is usually reserved for root so it appears as if its used | 20:54 |

| axgb | Not with an automated thing, i just copied and pasted with usb stick | 21:13 |
| yumbono | axgb: you can use the "chown" command to set the owner of your home directory to your user | 21:13 |

| pfifo | b0bbi10, hence only need 1 password | 21:14 |

| daftykins | axgb: sudo chown -R ariel: /home/ariel/ | 21:14 |

| Dr_Willis | ;) | 22:05 |
| nabblet | oooohhhh, shiny! | 22:05 |
| Dr_Willis | but you WILL want to read the weechat docs/guides/starter guide | 22:06 |
| Dr_Willis | also theres a weechat-android client that connects to your weechat session. | 22:06 |
| Dr_Willis | but its a bit crashy right now | 22:06 |
| nabblet | well, usually i use tmux+irssi | 22:07 |
| nabblet | tmux is some kind fo screen - but better ;) | 22:07 |
| nabblet | that weechat thing looks interesting! | 22:07 |
| Dr_Willis | for ages i used znc+weechat+tmux or whatever :) but with znc - the use of tmux was a little overkill | 22:07 |
| Dr_Willis | raspberry pi = my znc/irc server/gateway ;) | 22:07 |
| Dr_Willis | id connect to it via znc from any other client. then i basically was here 24/7 :) | 22:08 |
| Dr_Willis | 3+ differnt pcs/irc clients --> all connected to the same znc server, all routeing me here. | 22:09 |
| Dr_Willis | i could go to any pc in the house, or tablet/phone and still be on the same nick/session here. | 22:09 |

| mega1 | dpkg returned an error code (1) | 22:16 |
| Dr_Willis | nabblet: as i said eralier - i have 4 pcs in the house.. all go to the bouncer.. then they show whats here. | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | they can be running ANY irc client. it dosent matter. | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | i chat here.. go to the garrage.. that pc/client shows the same dialog/info. | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | i turn off all 4 pcs' the znc server stays here and logs stuff.. i connect via phone.. it shows the history. I never 'appear' to leave here | 22:18 |
| Dr_Willis | so. No ned to use ssh/tmux, any client can have a peristant session. | 22:18 |

| Dr_Willis | nabblet: or ssl ? | 22:25 |
| troii | IDLEONE i installed iceweasel but instead i get firefox | 22:25 |
| Dr_Willis | nabblet: weechat replaces your password with a * if you accidently do that in a chennel. | 22:25 |

| SubCool | which log file would i pull up to figure out which hdd is going nuts when it crashes again? | 22:25 |

| wilee-nilee | nabblet, You can set a delay | 22:25 |
| nabblet | wilee-nilee: oh yes, i remeber something about delay XD | 22:26 |
| nabblet | so that it has time to register... | 22:26 |

| wiak | daftykins: fake hardware raid i belive its a marvell chip/highpoint btw when i use sftp and copy a file from the os ssd disk i get the same speed, so its network not raid/ssd | 22:44 |

| jfklsdajkfsda | idk what's going on | 22:57 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | amd 5770 | 22:57 |
| wiak | sometimes you need to reinstall the gpu drivers | 22:57 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | i have some beta drivers | 22:57 |
| nabblet | Apachez: would be a bit of an overkill ;) | 22:57 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | ok i'll try with that | 22:57 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | tnx | 22:57 |
| wiak | try go into console and run amdconfig --initial | 22:57 |
| wiak | :P | 22:57 |
| nabblet | wilee-nilee: something like this http://argandgahandapandpa.wordpress.com/2010/11/08/command-line-script-to-upload-images-to-imagebin/ | 22:57 |

| jfklsdajkfsda | like i click start key on keyboard and nothing comes up | 22:58 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | how do i run command | 22:58 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | or terminal | 22:58 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | tnx wiak | 22:59 |
| wiak | follow the Black screen on boot Fix (uninstall driver) part | 22:59 |
| nabblet | well, i'll use that script then | 22:59 |
| Dr_Willis | jfklsdajkfsda: you do or do not get a graphical Login screen? (lightdm) | 22:59 |
| wiak | and then install driver again jfklsdajkfsda | 22:59 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | i got it after i restarded pc couple of times, and after i did some stuff in recovery mode | 22:59 |
| wiak | Dr_Willis i had the same problem, it comes from xorg and driver not being friends ;) | 22:59 |
| Dr_Willis | jfklsdajkfsda: somthing else to try is to make a new user via the console and see if they aork. | 22:59 |
| Dr_Willis | wiak: ive seen it happen for dozens of reasons. ;) (the no panels bit) | 23:00 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | right, i have no panels | 23:00 |
| wiak | <- had black screen | 23:00 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | but don't have black screen anymore | 23:00 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | just no panels | 23:00 |
| Dr_Willis | jfklsdajkfsda: try the guest user, and making a new user. see if they work. if SO then that points to a user setting issue | 23:00 |
| wiak | check /.config folder | 23:01 |
| wiak | Dr_Willis: yeah the most simple is to make a new user | 23:01 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | yeah, but how do i make a new user | 23:01 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | if i can't open any system related tools | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo adduser billgates | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | at the console | 23:01 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | and how to open console :p | 23:01 |
| daftykins | run the Terminal | 23:02 |

| Dr_Willis | then sudo service lightdm restart to restart the X server | 23:03 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | ok | 23:04 |
| jfklsdajkfsda | will try | 23:04 |
| wiak | you can reconfigure the driver with amdconfig --initial | 23:05 |
