[00:00] <chalcedony> hi MrObvious
[00:00] <chalcedony> i need help with ssh.
[00:00] <socrates_johnson> zykotick9: i like messing around with different linux distributions so it would be nice to have more partitions more easily
[00:01] <zykotick9> socrates_johnson: LABELS ftw ;)
[00:01] <socrates_johnson> zykotick9: ha yeah. thanks a lot for your help
[00:01] <reveldevel> zycotick: it shows me: username adm cdrom dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare
[00:02] <chalcedony> it seems it can't download open-ssh - E: Unable to locate open-ssh ?
[00:02] <chalcedony> good evening Dr_willis *hugs*
[00:02] <zykotick9> !tab > reveldevel
[00:02] <MrObvious> chalcedony, SSH server or client?
[00:02] <chalcedony> MrObvious, i can ssh out from it, but not into it, denies access.
[00:03] <zykotick9> reveldevel: that doesn't have the sudo group!  use recoverymode to add your user to the sudo group "adduser YOURUSERNAME sudo".
[00:03] <MrMonkey31> this is one for you security experts: I'm trying to get opera using aptitude and I've followed their little step-by-step like 4 times now, and the package still comes up not authenticated. I'm guessing it's missing a step, or *somebody* forgot to provide the authentication for the newest release? ...but not knowing anything I'm wondering a) what's the most likely explanation, and b) is the solution even worth discovering? if security is goin
[00:03] <MrObvious> chalcedony, openssh-server - secure shell (SSH) server, for secure access from remote machines
[00:04] <chalcedony> MrObvious, yes, it needs that - doesn't seem to be in it's directories
[00:04] <reveldevel> i am in a wubi install, how do i get to recovery mode
[00:04] <chalcedony> repositories
[00:04] <zykotick9> MrMonkey31: "not authenticated" means your lacking the gpg key most likely...  assuming you "apt-get updated" already.
[00:05] <reveldevel> zykotick9: i don't understand !tab
[00:05] <Dr_willis> !bot
[00:05] <Dr_willis> ! stuff are bot triggers
[00:05] <zykotick9> reveldevel: if you're on wubi... best of luck to you.  i can't/won't help further.  don't use my nick in any further posts, i won't see it.
[00:06] <reveldevel> Dr_willis: autocomplete?
[00:06] <reveldevel> zykotick9: how do i get off og wubi?
[00:06] <john_doe_jr> Does anyone know what the following is "NullCPUPowerManagement.kext"?
[00:06] <reveldevel> of*
[00:06] <Dr_willis> reveldevel,  yes.. works in BASH and on most irc clients
[00:06] <dsprc> speaking of ssh-server, i can not get it installed because of an error related to permissions with /lib/init/upstart-job
[00:06] <Dr_willis> reveldevel,  type 'dr_<tab>' and see what happens
[00:06] <dsprc> here is the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6057140/
[00:07] <reveldevel> Dr_willis, fair enough
[00:07] <MrMonkey31> Uh yeah the guide I used said as much. it's this one here: https://wiki.debian.org/Opera  - and elsewhere I learned about checking the list of keys and it lists *something* with opera in it. that's why I'm already set to wondering who really screwed up, me or them.  anybody want to guess at the likelihood that someone like opera would neglect adding new keys after updating their stuff?  effectively causing the selfsame problem I just describ
[00:08] <reveldevel> Dr_willis, thanks, and what's up with wubi hate? I'm already looking to change but "zycotick9: can't/won't help further"??
[00:08] <daftykins> wubi needs to die
[00:08] <chalcedony> Dr_willis, what do i need to do to get ssh-server in ubuntu 13.04? it seems it can't download open-ssh - E: Unable to locate open-ssh
[00:08] <zykotick9> dsprc: does running "sudo apt-get -f install" give the same error, or do something else?
[00:09] <daftykins> chalcedony: 'openssh-server' is the package name.
[00:09] <haseo_> daftykins: what do i do?
[00:09] <daftykins> haseo_: can you run the command "ifconfig -a" in a terminal and post it to paste.ubuntu.com ?
[00:09] <reveldevel> daftykins, sure, but not while my system is running on it. What's the best way to transfer to a native install?
[00:09] <Dr_willis> chalcedony,  use the proper package name. ;)
[00:10] <Dr_willis> chalcedony,  apt-cache search ssh server                should show a list
[00:10] <mapps> hi y'all
[00:10] <mapps> im trying to setup a vpn and i dont get it in the /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/vars file why is KEY_EMAIL twice?
[00:10] <dsprc> zykotick9: i tried with synaptic and get the same thing. doing a 'dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server' gives similar results
[00:10] <chalcedony> daftykins, lol yup!
[00:10] <chalcedony> thanks!
[00:10] <daftykins> reveldevel: backup and nuke, i would say
[00:10] <mapps> export KEY_EMAIL="me@myhost.domain" and export KEY_EMAIL=mail@host.domain - setting up the cert
[00:10] <zykotick9> dsprc: what version of ubuntu is this?
[00:11] <reveldevel> daftykins, and go with grub or other bootloader?
[00:12] <haseo_> daftykins: im doing it right now. but it says command not found.
[00:12] <quietone> hi, I can't normalize the rotation on an external VGA monitor on a laptop
[00:12] <Dr_willis> 'normalize' means ?
[00:12] <quietone> not clockwise, not counter clockwise
[00:13] <daftykins> haseo_: typing it in a terminal? really? try "sudo ifconfig -a"
[00:13] <daftykins> it really shouldn't need sudo though =/
[00:13] <daftykins> reveldevel: well, installing natively would take care of that with GRUB2 for you
[00:14] <dsprc> zykotick9: precise 12.04 lts
[00:14] <quietone> Dr_willis, the only options for rotation on the VGA are 'counterclockwise' and 'clockwise'
[00:14] <zykotick9> dsprc: ummm.  i was just worried, as the error seems init.d and involke-rc.d related.  sorry i have no suggestions.  best of luck!
[00:14] <chalcedony> To restart the ssh service, use: $ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart  - no such file or directory ?
[00:15] <chalcedony> i'm root, still didn't work
[00:15] <haseo_> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6057165/
[00:15] <Dr_willis> chalcedony,  sudo service ssh<tab>  restart   (to get the right name)
[00:15] <jrib> chalcedony: use "service" instead of calling those scripts directly
[00:16] <dsprc> chalcedony: try 'sudo service ssh stop'
[00:16] <chalcedony> Dr_willis, jrib ill try
[00:16] <daftykins> haseo_: yeah you've got no wireless interface :( did you reboot after running the commands?
[00:17] <dsprc> chalcedony: or restart rather than stop ;P
[00:17] <haseo_> daftykins: yes i rebooted.
[00:17] <daftykins> haseo_: can you pastebin "lspci" also, please?
[00:17] <chalcedony> dsprc, ok restarted - great thanks!
[00:18] <haseo_> daftykins: type it in terminal?
[00:18] <daftykins> yep
[00:18] <Bryan> Hellp
[00:18] <Bryan> Hello*
[00:18] <daftykins> hi
[00:18] <reveldevel> daftykins, sounds like a refit is in order. thanks for the help.
[00:18] <chalcedony> yippie i'm in!
[00:18] <Bryan> Anyone feel like assisting me with a wifi issue?
[00:19] <reveldevel> Dr_willis, appreciate the ! info
[00:19] <chalcedony> poor Bryan it's been a while since i did that
[00:19] <haseo_> daftykins:http://paste.ubuntu.com/6057183/
[00:21] <reveldevel> merci et au revoir
[00:23] <Bryan> Well, I just got a Lenovo U430 Touch, and I am having issues getting the WiFi to work properly. The most I have really accomplished is getting the hardware ID for the card but google doesnt like it. [8086:08b2] (rev 63)
[00:23] <daftykins> haseo_: run 'sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree'
[00:24] <zykotick9> Bryan: fyi, judd (debian hardware database) returns: [8086:08b2] is 'Wireless 7260' from 'Intel Corporation' with kernel modules 'ata_generic', 'snd-hda-intel' in wheezy.   --- i'd think this would work OOTB on ubuntu.
[00:24] <JesseH> Anyone know how I can stream audio?
[00:25] <haseo_> daftykins: ran it. now what?
[00:25] <daftykins> haseo_: another reboot and hopefully wireless will appear
[00:26] <MrObvious> Bryan, lspci output?
[00:26] <haseo_> daftykins: it says setting up linux-frimware-nonfree am i supposed to see something else or just reboot?
[00:26] <daftykins> haseo_: once it finishes it should return to the command prompt
[00:27] <zykotick9> Bryan: that PM was too bad.  best of luck (don't reply to me further).
[00:27] <haseo_> daftykins: it goes back to where you can type commands right?
[00:27] <daftykins> zykotick9: those pesky query scamps!
[00:27] <daftykins> haseo_: yep should do
[00:28] <haseo_> alright then ill do a reboot and ill be back
[00:28] <daftykins> ok
[00:33] <haseo_> daftykins: nothing. -.-
[00:34] <LeeSL510> ?
[00:34] <daftykins> haseo_: i think i forgot a step, sorry about that. run "sudo apt-get remove --purge bcmwl-kernel-source" and reboot again
[00:35] <zykotick9> JesseH: i've never do it myself, but i know pulse can stream across a network somehow.
[00:35] <zykotick9> s/do/done/
[00:35] <superloop> hello i need some help with my bright configuration
[00:35] <superloop> i'm a packardbell easynote f2365
[00:36] <superloop> on ubuntu 12.04
[00:36] <haseo_> daftykins: already ran gonna reboot. ill be back..
[00:36] <wilee-nilee> JesseH, Whats your source of the stream or you want to stream it yourself, details matter here.
[00:37] <JesseH> wilee-nilee, I would like to either stream the music I am listening to, or music I am creating.
[00:37] <JesseH> Easily.
[00:37] <JesseH> :P
[00:37] <wilee-nilee> not sure
[00:38] <MrMonkey31> zykotick9: thanks for answering but I still don't understand thing #1 about this. right now aptitude is telling me it can install but not authenticate opera. another guy is suggesting I can eliminate the problem by getting the deb file from their ftp site, instead of allowing the install despite non-authenticatibility. I guess I'll do that and leave PGP's and whatnot to the pro's? or will I have to accept more "unverified" things whenever th
[00:38] <superloop> hello??
[00:39] <wilee-nilee> JesseH, askubuntu probably has all the answers here is a start. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=stream+music
[00:40] <zykotick9> MrMonkey31: to be honest, why use the non-free opera?  you've got other open source or better yet, free options out there.  but best of luck!  when you run "sudo apt-get update" to you get any errors about missing keys right now?
[00:40] <JesseH> thank you wilee-nilee
[00:40] <Sach> Trying to do Memtest68.  When it loads nothing happens on my blue screen.   Am I missing something here?
[00:41] <dsprc> daftykins: i think its not in the default path for some reason
[00:42] <MrMonkey31> zykotick9: I'm using it, not marrying it! ;-)
[00:42] <dsprc> whoops! :X
[00:43] <daftykins> dsprc: ?
[00:44] <dan123> hello, I need help. I am trying to configure a network scanner with a server using xinetd and saned. When I do telnet ip 6566 I get connection closed by foreign host. What can I do?
[00:45] <mnathani> how do I install the latest weechat on Ubuntu 12.10 | apt-get install has me at WeeChat 0.3.8, I want 0.4.0 or newer
[00:45] <dan123> I've been looking in different places but I cant make it work :(
[00:46] <dan123> anyone knows if I should see someting when I type the ip address in the web explorer bar and the port? example: 192.168.0.1:6566
[00:46] <dsprc> daftykins: didnt notice that i was reading scrollback (>_< )
[00:46] <MrObvious> mnathani, Compile it?
[00:46] <daftykins> dsprc: :D
[00:46] <daftykins> dan123: firewall issues?
[00:47] <dan123> daftykins: how can I know?
[00:47] <daftykins> dan123: flush iptables and test again *shrug*
[00:48] <dan123> daftykins: sorry, I am kinda newbie, how can I flush the tables? I did not get the *shrug* part... sorry
[00:48] <daftykins> dan123: what OS is on each system?
[00:49] <dan123> daftykins: ubuntu server where the scanner is attached and ubuntu on my laptop 13.x
[00:49] <daftykins> dan123: also 192.168.0.1 would be your router so i hope you didn't mean that IP :D
[00:49] <Jagst3r15> after I install a new application the icon does not appear until after I restart please help
[00:49] <Sach> Trying to run Memtest86.  When it loads nothing happens on my blue screen.   Am I missing something here?
[00:50] <daftykins> Sach: there should be lots of text, are you saying it's blank?
[00:50] <wilee-nilee> mnathani, There is this ppa, however you loose the support here, with a ppa. https://launchpad.net/~nesthib/+archive/weechat-stable
[00:50] <dan123> daftykins: well, actually I was making that ip up. You are right. I actually have the router in  x.x.x.10 and x.x.x.111 for the server
[00:50] <Jagst3r15> anyone?
[00:51] <Sach> daftykins: there is text alright. but no sign at all that anything is actually happening.  I left it for 90mins and all the text was the same as at the start.  Am I supposed to press a button to get it to initiate?
[00:51] <dan123> daftykins: so I tried x.x.x.111:6566 in firefox but I get "connection reset"
[00:51] <daftykins> Sach: nope it's automatic and continues to run lots of tests
[00:51] <Sach> daftykins: http://picpaste.com/DSC02650-49fxRcD3.JPG
[00:51] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, What release, what desktop, and what apps?
[00:51] <Jagst3r15> we are talking about all apps
[00:51] <Jagst3r15> and i am on stock ubuntu 12.04 latest with updates
[00:51] <daftykins> dan123: on that server, run "netstat -tuln | pastebinit" and link me to the page, it should show what ports are listening to confirm 6566 is indeed open
[00:52] <sysop3231> karab44: why are you repeating yourself
[00:52] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, That was 3 questions, details are the key here, still one pending.
[00:52] <daftykins> Sach: ah it hasn't loaded correctly, can you try again?
[00:52] <sysop3231> i was on 4 hours ago and you were asking the same lame question.
[00:52] <Jagst3r15> all apps wilee-nilee
[00:52] <sysop3231> are you a bot?
[00:52] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, Unity?
[00:52] <daftykins> sysop3231: such... anger...
[00:52] <Jagst3r15> oh sorry, yes
[00:52] <Sach> daftykins: at startup, I hold down shift, then scroll down to memtest86, right?  Tried that twice already.
[00:52] <jfritz> Hey guys, I'm having trouble connecting to a public SAMBA share. Nautilus doesn't seem to be passing my credentials along correctly. Take a look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/340492/ubuntu-13-04-mounts-samba-shares-as-guest-by-default-shares-can-be-manually-mou
[00:53] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, THe icons showing where in the dash?
[00:53] <Jagst3r15> on the launcher sir
[00:53] <Jagst3r15> they show up in the dash search
[00:53] <daftykins> Sach: perhaps something is wrong compatibility wise with that memtest version and your PC, tried running a liveCD/USB memtest instead?
[00:53] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, Even if you launch from the dash?
[00:53] <Jagst3r15> in the dash there are icons
[00:54] <Jagst3r15> the only thing that solves this is restarting
[00:54] <Sach> daftykins: I have a 12.04 CD.  Is Memtest one of the listed options (together with "install", "run live cd" etc?
[00:54] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, Installs don't show on the left panel till you open them, and if you want them threr right click to attach.
[00:54] <Jagst3r15> this should not have to be though, probably a bug of some sort
[00:54] <wilee-nilee> there*
[00:54] <sysop3231> daftykins: certainly not. im calm as a cucumber, its just odd to see someone asking the same non-sense question, with the same spelling and spacing, and no one asking if he's a bot.
[00:54] <daftykins> Sach: yep it'll be "test memory"
[00:54] <dan123> daftykins:    tcp6       0      0 :::6566                 :::*                    LISTEN
[00:54] <Jagst3r15> wilee-nilee I open them though and still no icon unless I restart sir
[00:54] <daftykins> dan123: ooh, it's listening on IPv6, is there another IPv4 entry?
[00:55] <dan123> daftykins: that is the only line that has the port 6566 listed
[00:55] <sysop3231> i dont think using the word 'lame' makes me out to be angry.
[00:55] <mapps> what command can i run to check whats running? wanted to check openvpn has started properly before i try and setup a client
[00:55] <daftykins> dan123: it would be easier if you could just pastebin the whole thing so i can check. PM me the link if you're afraid of sharing the detail
[00:55] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, Don't call me sir, for one you do not know my gender alone. have you modified the desktop with unity tweak or compiz?
[00:56] <sysop3231> anywho.. i have a desktop with 13.04 on it,.. and a pi with Xbmc. Does anyone have a strong opinion on the simplest, fastest way to hook my 13.04 desktop up so that xbmc on the pi can stream stuff from it?
[00:56] <mapps> hmm
[00:56] <Jagst3r15> wilee-nilee sorry I just assumed, I should not have. And nope, this is a fresh install
[00:56] <mapps> its not listed in top but it gave no errors when starting?!
[00:56] <sysop3231> crap. i keep forgetting to give more information on one line without pressing enter. if anyone has info, msg me and we can chat.
[00:57] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, Try running unity --replace to reset it completely
[00:57] <Jagst3r15> k
[00:57] <nerdtron> mornig!
[00:57] <co-XZist> morning ?
[00:57] <co-XZist> lol
[00:57] <Bocks> mornig nerdtron
[00:57] <nerdtron> :)
[00:58] <co-XZist> its 9 pm here
[00:58] <wilee-nilee> Jagst3r15, some general reset info for 12.04 specifically. http://askubuntu.com/questions/153275/unity-reset-in-12-04-doesnt-work
[00:58] <nerdtron> ur still alert... even in the evening
[00:58] <Jagst3r15> wilee-nilee thanks
[00:58] <wilee-nilee> no prob. ;)
[00:58] <Extreminador> guys this compiz thing have break all my stuff... i did click on the button to reset to the default and amm menus disapear
[00:59] <daftykins> dan123: yeah it's only listening on that port on IPv6, if you were to go to your client and enter in the browser the IPv6 address of that PC :6566 instead i bet it'd work.
[00:59] <Extreminador> can´t even open a terminal (ctrl +alt + t)
[00:59] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, What release, you can rest unity?
[00:59] <wilee-nilee> reset*
[00:59] <Extreminador> don´t know wilee-nilee unity you mean the version of ubuntu ?
[00:59] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, At times a logout and or rebbot is needed.
[01:00] <wilee-nilee> reboot*
[01:00] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, The ubuntu release?
[01:00] <Extreminador> well i guess for a logout i need to reboot to clikc on restart button
[01:00] <Extreminador> i's the 12.04 one
[01:00] <dan123> daftykins: how can I do that? but also I want te insane android app to work on my smartphone so I think I should enable it in ipv4... well, at least can you tell me how to test the ipv6 ip?
[01:00] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, general reset info. http://askubuntu.com/questions/153275/unity-reset-in-12-04-doesnt-work
[01:00] <Extreminador> ohh wai i can access the console
[01:00] <Extreminador> will read it wilee-nilee thanks
[01:01] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, YOu have to be careful messing with compiz is all.
[01:01] <Extreminador> i will remove it after all this
[01:01] <Extreminador> brighness (or something) is great and it was workin g nicely
[01:01] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, Unity is a plugin in compiz, slow down and do things confirmed correct.
[01:01] <daftykins> dan123: i would imagine you need to reconfigure the process providing that server to listen on IPv4
[01:01] <guuest> A question...does the Ubuntu Software Center completely uninstall a piece of software I want to remove?
[01:02] <dan123> daftykins: thanks for your help. I'm not clueless at this point :)
[01:02] <daftykins> dan123: but to test my IPv6 idea, run "ifconfig eth0" on your server and find its' ipv6 address, likely the fe80:<lots more here> then enter http://fe80:...:6566 into your browser instead
[01:04] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, Linux in general gives you much more control, which means it is easier to brick, so be careful.
[01:04] <willows12> I've been having some issues with the fullscreen mode of this gaming emulator I use (fceux). It worked fine on Unity, but with LXDE when I select fullscreen a window takes up the whole screen, but the actual game only takes up about 1/4 of the screen (as opposed to the full screen on Unity). Any idea about why this happens?
[01:05] <Extreminador> yehh wilee-nilee sow it seems lool...
[01:06] <guuest> Does the Ubuntu Software Center completely remove a package and its contents such as files, directories and its dependencis?
[01:07] <nerdtron> guuest, i think the .program folders on your home folder are nor removed when you uninstall a program in the software center
[01:07] <wilee-nilee> guuest, no
[01:07] <wilee-nilee> guuest, That is a broad generalized question as well really
[01:08] <wilee-nilee> it is a yes and no in some circumstances
[01:09] <wilee-nilee> willows12, I would suspect that app is not setup to run in lxde with configuring, where as unity has a de manager and is a click and run format by and large.
[01:09] <co-XZist> question.... why does my UB 12.04 hang when I select restart or init 6...but shutsdown with no problem
[01:10] <wilee-nilee> without* willows12
[01:10] <daftykins> co-XZist: are you that person that keeps coming in here asking that same question?
[01:10] <co-XZist> umm no
[01:10] <co-XZist> i've nevr asked that question <_<
[01:10] <wilee-nilee> !who | co-XZist
[01:11] <ChogyDan> daftykins: that's just more noobs  :P
[01:11] <john_doe_jr> hello
[01:11] <co-XZist> i'm no noob..
[01:11] <john_doe_jr> your a noob
[01:11] <co-XZist> anyhoo
[01:11] <ChogyDan> co-XZist: sorry, didn't mean that
[01:12] <john_doe_jr> windows is better
[01:12] <co-XZist> can anyone help?
[01:12] <daftykins> co-XZist: so, you run "sudo shutdown -h 0" and it doesn't power off?
[01:12] <daftykins> ChogyDan: i fear they come in with different nicks to try and dupe is with their crazy
[01:12] <Extreminador> humm wilee-nilee sorry to bother you again ... after running the unity --replace and --reset after it only have make pop up the windows softwares that were open... a terminal and the ccsm  (i did close them already) but still no menus to log off ...
[01:13] <co-XZist> daftykins: shutdown is not the problem.. its when I select restart
[01:13] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, ctrl-alt-f1 login and reboot
[01:13] <daftykins> co-XZist: graphically?
[01:13] <Extreminador> wilee-nilee ahh ok
[01:13] <wilee-nilee> tty
[01:13] <guuest> what is the terminal command for seeing a log for what packages have been installed?
[01:13] <co-XZist> daftykins: both graphical and in terminal
[01:14] <daftykins> co-XZist: restarting with "sudo shutdown -r 0" ?
[01:14] <wilee-nilee> guuest, dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages
[01:14] <co-XZist> no
[01:14] <gr33n7007h> dpkg -l
[01:14] <wilee-nilee> that will show all installed in a file in home guuest
 thanks.
[01:14] <willows12> wilee-nilee, what is a de manager?
[01:14] <co-XZist> i use init 0  and init 6
[01:14] <wilee-nilee> willows12, desktop manager
[01:14] <Extreminador> wilee-nilee still no menus... left mouse click optins are the only menu that i can see
[01:15] <daftykins> co-XZist: why. i don't think ubuntu uses runlevels in the common sense
[01:15] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, You have rebooted?
[01:15] <Extreminador> yup wilee-nilee
[01:15] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, What is the graphic hardware?
[01:15] <co-XZist> daftykins: even if i select "restart" in graphical mode.. same issue
[01:16] <wilee-nilee> nvidia maybe
[01:16] <Extreminador> you mean if it has open gl active ?
[01:16] <Extreminador> yes wilee-nilee
[01:16] <Extreminador> nvidea card indeed
[01:16] <daftykins> co-XZist: no idea then
[01:16] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, Have you at some point loaded drivers, and if so from where?
[01:17] <hydro> wilee-nilee: I was here earlier having trouble getting my installation disk to work and burning an iso to a usb instead worked
[01:17] <Extreminador> nop wilee-nilee it was all automatic when i installed ubuntu
[01:17] <Extreminador> ubuntu had askme at some point if i want to install some drivers that are not open source and i did saud no
[01:18] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, run software-properties-gtk to see the additional drivers info in the last tab in software sources
[01:18] <co-XZist> **sigh**
[01:18] <wilee-nilee> hydro, okay why do you tell me?
[01:19] <hydro> wilee-nilee: just so you know that it worked incase you were wondering and encounter anyone else with the same problem
[01:19] <wilee-nilee> hydro, Ah I remember now cool glad it works.
[01:19] <Byrin> Hello, I have the Intel 7260 WiFi card which is not yet supported, but I installed the 3.11 RC7 kernel which *should* support it. I am just not sure what to do next. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
[01:19] <Extreminador> wilee-nilee 3 erroes gives and the last one is  --> "Gtk could's be initialized"
[01:20] <hydro> now i'm having a problem after I finished installing ubuntu and rebooting, i get asked what to boot from and any option will just reboot the computer
[01:20] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, Ah, I suspect that is helpful to have as part of the problem, I'm not up on nvidia stuff, but many are, I suspect that is the area of interest here.
[01:21] <hydro> I've had this problem before and managed to fix it by adding a boot flag to the root partition, but there already seems to be a boot flag on the root partition this time
[01:21] <Extreminador> wilee-nilee did change now to desktop view and 2 windows are open one "system problem detected" and other about to "rep application software did close unespected" ...
[01:22] <Extreminador> i did hit the button to sho details
[01:22] <Extreminador> ahh ok wilee-nilee np...
[01:22] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, Not really a area I can troubleshoot with confidence.
[01:22] <poz_> I am having a problem with sending audio though HDMI to my tv
[01:22] <Extreminador> np wilee-nilee
[01:22] <poz_> not sure why it wont work...
[01:22] <Oliver_> How do I connect my android phone to Ubuntu to transfer files?  It's connected, but I don't see it.
[01:23] <poz_> Oliver_, do you have the correct settings in the android phone?
[01:23] <wilee-nilee> Oliver_, What release of ubuntu, and did you look in the left panel of home?
[01:23] <Oliver_> I have "Media device MTP selected
[01:23] <Oliver_> On 12.04 lts
[01:23] <Oliver_> I went to the home folder and don't see it listed anywhere
[01:23] <Extreminador> wilee-nilee i guess this will be fixed by them self... it's asking me now for the ubunto cd rom 'Precise Pangolin'
[01:24] <wilee-nilee> Oliver_, where is this "Media device MTP selected"
[01:24] <bazzer> i'm trying to pxe boot the 12.04 livecd and keep getting ip-config timeouts trying to get a dhcp address....anybody know what's the problem?
[01:24] <Oliver_> On the phone wilee-nilee
[01:24] <daftykins> bazzer: your DHCP server isn't configured correctly? :)
[01:25] <bazzer> daftykins: well i can pxe boot and preseed install just fine :)
[01:25] <poz_> Oliver_, what is your "USB settings" on the andriod?
[01:25] <wilee-nilee> Oliver_, I had to use a PPA on 12.04 to see mtp notice the android 4 in the link. http://www.webupd8.org/2013/01/upgrade-to-gvfs-with-mtp-support-in.html
[01:25] <Oliver_> "Media device (MTP) wilee-nilee
[01:26] <wilee-nilee> Oliver_, the development has the usb ticked as well I assume
[01:26] <Oliver_> wilee-nilee: What?
[01:27] <poz_> Oliver_, do you have the android usb settings set to Mass storage?
[01:27] <Oliver_> poz_: No?  I'm on Cyanogen Mod.  Android 4.3
[01:28] <poz_> if it is set to mass storage, then when you plug it in, you will have to select "connect storage to PC"
[01:28] <wilee-nilee> Oliver_, developer option on the phone has a usb debugging that needs to be ticked generally to communicate with a computer
[01:28] <poz_> does Cyanogen Mod. Android 4.3 not have usb settings?
[01:28] <willows12> wilee-nilee, ok. thanks for the response
[01:28] <Oliver_> USB Debugging is on
[01:29] <hydro> I think I have something wrong with my partitions, after installing I can't boot from hardrive
[01:29] <wilee-nilee> Oliver_, I had to use that ppa with my nexus 7.
[01:29] <Oliver_> wilee-nilee: Do what?
[01:29] <daftykins> Oliver_: glad you got the wireless working. what was it that worked in the end?
 Oliver_, I had to use a PPA on 12.04 to see mtp notice the android 4 in the link. http://www.webupd8.org/2013/01/upgrade-to-gvfs-with-mtp-support-in.html  read the posts
[01:30] <hydro> is it ok to have fat32 as the filesystem for the root partition?
[01:30] <poz_> am I missing something here?
[01:30] <Oliver_> daftykins: I typed in my ssid under hidden network and it connected.  I have to reconnect everytime I wake up the laptop, but it works now
[01:30] <Oliver_> wilee-nilee: PPA?
[01:30] <wilee-nilee> Oliver_, READ THE POSTS
[01:30] <poz_> why the complicated explanation? my android connects to ubuntu 12.04 lts without a problem
[01:31] <Oliver_> wilee-nilee: Didn't see it.  Jeez...
[01:31] <daftykins> Oliver_: ah, perhaps your network isn't broadcasting its' SSID
[01:31] <Oliver_> It does on my other laptop, ps3, N10, and phones. daftykins
[01:31] <daftykins> ah
[01:32] <poz_> Anyways, anyone good with audio set ups? for some reason hdmi/ display port 1 does not show up in my audio settings...
[01:33] <sere> poz can you sync music through through a media player?
[01:34] <poz_> why would I sync music?
[01:34] <poz_> I can play music though the media player
[01:35] <poz_> and it plays though my computer speakers but I want to send it though the HDMI cable hooked up to my tv
[01:35] <poz_> picture goes though... and everything works fine in windows
[01:35] <sere> poz_: why not.. i have a galaxy pad 10.1 but it the playlist are not syncing right...just wondering if u got it working
[01:36] <ChogyDan> poz_: have you looked through the audio settings thing?
[01:36] <sere> poz_: you have to switch the output to the hdmi
[01:36] <poz_> oh... sorry no, I dont sync anything. cant help you.
[01:37] <poz_> I have 3 HDMI/DisplayPort options, # 2, 3, & 4.... I suspect 1 is the one that I want but it does not show up... No audio out of the other ones
[01:37] <LinuxEnthusiast> Hello all!
[01:38] <poz_> Hi
[01:38] <furoido> how do i logged in with my nick?
[01:38] <furoido> registered nick
[01:38] <usr13> furoido:  /msg nickserve identify passwdhere
[01:38] <furoido> Thanks
[01:39] <poz_> I also have a Digital Output (S/PDIF) - nothing out of it. Headphones - goes to computer speakers, and Analog Output - goes to computer speakers
[01:39] <wilee-nilee> furoido, Many irc apps have a login option.
[01:39] <LinuxEnthusiast> I just finished installing Ubuntu on my laptop, and I was having some minor touchscreen issues. Basically touch only works in some places, not allowing me to actually click. I saw a few posts on this but no solid answer, ideas?
[01:40] <usr13> furoido: As wilee-nilee points out, if you use an app like irssi, you can set it up to login for you.
[01:40] <furoido> im in
[01:40] <poz_> LinuxEnthusiast, has touch been released already? I thought that was coming in 14.04 next year some time...?
[01:41] <hydro> I've had this problem before and managed to fix it by adding a boot flag to the root partition, but there already seems to be a boot flag on the root partition this time
[01:41] <usr13> !touch | poz_
[01:42] <hydro> i've installed ubuntu but it won't boot up
[01:42] <usr13> hydro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[01:42] <LinuxEnthusiast> Oh I have the desktop edition, I was just hoping to get a little better fuctionality from my touchscreen thats all
[01:42] <jpmh> LinuxEnthusiast: I have an ap that is a Point of Sale system it uses touch screens and has operated flawlessley with Ubuntu since 11.10 - there are of course issues with the desktop with Unity - but I do not operate with the desktop or unity
[01:43] <usr13> hydro: Is it uefi?
[01:43] <Extreminador> well guys i have to go...
[01:44] <usr13> hydro: If it is uefi, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[01:44] <Extreminador> thanks wilee-nilee... i installed ubuntu again (did only had there the compiz installed, sow all ok)
[01:44] <Extreminador> compiz is to forget... will use the brighness one
[01:45] <wilee-nilee> col
[01:45] <wilee-nilee> cool
[01:46] <Extreminador> i really need to start understanding more of this linux thing lool
[01:47] <usr13> Extreminador: You'll learn.
[01:47] <hydro> usr13: I pretty sure my computer has bios still? it says bios when it boots up
[01:47] <Extreminador> traying to do something similar to this for organization http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_meEsxZRppk
[01:47] <hydro> usr13: is this uefi a replacement for bios? or a type of bios?
[01:47] <poz_> Thats what they said to me... I am still waiting to see how that pans out. :|
[01:47] <usr13> hydro: Then just follow  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[01:48] <usr13> hydro:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFI
[01:48] <hydro> ok working on it
[01:49] <wilee-nilee> Extreminador, That is not the unity desktop I believe and whatever it is is modified.
[01:50] <Extreminador> yehh i am sure of it... but i have to say it's very nice
[01:50] <szahrat> which one?'
[01:51] <Extreminador> szahratjust showing this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_meEsxZRppk
[01:51] <Extreminador> ups szahrat
[01:52] <usr13> Extreminador: There are all sorts of cool things you can do.  (I just use xfce.)
[01:52] <Extreminador> xfce i have heard of it as well
[01:52] <Extreminador> let me check it
[01:53] <usr13> Extreminador: I like a simple easily configurable interface.
[01:53] <usr13> !xfce | Extreminador
[01:53] <Extreminador> well usr13 i like ti simples as well... the mouse edge thing it not really a necessary thing... but the diferent icons on desktop is
[01:53] <Extreminador> for organization...
[01:54] <Extreminador> i did already read some tuturial about the diferent icons on diferent desktops and at the time i read it i seems simple
[01:54] <usr13> Extreminador: Desktop Environments are personal, you seek / find one that suits your own personal wants /needs.
[01:54] <poz_> Just wanted to say that my audio problem has been resolved... Turns out I just need to use a different nvidia graphics driver
[01:55] <Rallias> Is there any way to do a Ubuntu install via a remote setup where I don't have access to the screen?
[01:55] <usr13> Extreminador: I should elaborate just a bit;  You find one that is close to what you want and customize it to suit your wants / needs.
[01:55] <c_smith> hey, I added my Facebook account to Ubuntu Online Accounts, and I opened Empathy and Empathy is telling me I need to authenticate (which I'm sure I did with UOA). is there something I'm missing?
[01:56] <c_smith> I do have an alternative I can fall back on, Pidgin, but I'd rather not have to install more than needed.
[01:56] <Extreminador> well usr13 i did try already that way with enlightment 17 (e17)... but for some reazon that one (for example) is's not 100% workable with ubuntu... sow to try it out better i did install bodhilinux that comes with e17 already, but i did not like it... move back to ubuntu
[01:57] <usr13> c_smith: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Empathy
[01:57] <hydro> usr13:  when i try "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubunut/boot-repair
[01:57] <hydro> " I get "Cannot access PPA (https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~yannubunut/+archive/boot-repair) to get PPA information, please check your internet connection.
[01:57] <hydro> "
[01:57] <hydro> but I'm connected to the internet?
[01:57] <ChogyDan> Extreminador: how did the person in the video do that? did you figure it out?
[01:57] <usr13> hydro: host ubuntu.com   #What does that say?
[01:57] <szahrat> i prefer using openbox on arch linux: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd-iJMJAaRY
[01:58] <Extreminador> ChogyDan i think he used compiz software and modifie it
[01:58] <hydro> usr13, it says "ubuntu.com has address 91.189.94.156
[01:58] <hydro> ubuntu.com mail is handled by 10 mx.canonical.com.
[01:58] <hydro> "
[01:58] <lotuspsychje> whats the packagename again for post-it notes?
[01:58] <c_smith> usr13, I'm not sure what you're telling me, are you telling me to head to #empathy?
[01:58] <usr13> hydro: Try again.
[01:58] <Extreminador> but ChogyDan not 100% sure as well
[01:58] <c_smith> if so, I get the feeling I'll be going back and forth between channels with the same problem.
[01:59] <hydro> usr13, try adding the repository again?
[01:59] <usr13> c_smith: Just passing on information about empathy
[01:59] <usr13> hydro: Yes
[01:59] <karab44> I have this annoying bug in 13.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1170783
[01:59] <c_smith> usr13, ah, I see.
[01:59] <hydro> usr13, ok i did and got the same results "Cannot access PPA (https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~yannubunut/+archive/boot-repair) to get PPA information, please check your internet connection.
[01:59] <hydro> "
[01:59] <karab44> I can not turn off my PC

[01:59] <c_smith> usr13, only had this issue start recently, before FB worked without a hitch.
[01:59] <usr13> hydro: You've booted to the liveCD.  Right?
[02:00] <hydro> usr13, right because i can't boot from my hardrive
[02:00] <usr13> c_smith: Not sure what you need empathy for.
[02:00] <lotuspsychje> wilee-nilee: tnx mate tomboy was the one i was looking for :p
[02:00] <hydro> usr13, but i'm on a lubuntu liveCD so i don't think it includes the boot repair program
[02:01] <usr13> hydro: Then just follow  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[02:01] <c_smith> usr13, true. already have half a mind to go to Pidgin.
[02:01] <c_smith> plus Pidgin works a hell of a lot better.
[02:02] <ChogyDan> Extreminador: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1651769
[02:03] <hydro> usr13, ok when i try " sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[02:03] <hydro> " I get " Path `/boot/grub' is not readable by GRUB on boot. Installation is impossible. Aborting.
[02:03] <hydro> "
[02:04] <Extreminador> ChogyDan will read it thanks
[02:04] <Extreminador> but tomorrow becasue it's 3 am here
[02:04] <zykotick9> lotuspsychje: fyi, gnote is the non-mono version of tomboy (but it might not have the same sync features?)
[02:05] <wilee-nilee> hydro, "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" does not work, you need other commands, use the bootrepair app, and save the bootinfo summary in case it fails.
[02:05] <wilee-nilee> from the live cd it does not work that is.
[02:06] <hydro> wilee-nilee, I don't have the boot-repair app, i was trying to add the repository for it to download it but i couldn't
[02:06] <tinkster> How can I coerce UFW to forward incoming 514/udp on eth0 to 514/udp on lo?
[02:06] <wilee-nilee> hydro, On the live cd?
[02:07] <hydro> wilee-nilee, I'm actually using a lubuntu live usb
[02:08] <hydro> wilee-nilee, i only have one flash drive and my live cds don't seem to be working so i don't think i could download a ubuntu live cd to get the boot repair
[02:08] <wilee-nilee> hydro, on the live cd if you run this what happens, pastebin the whole thing. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair && sudo apt-get update
[02:08] <wilee-nilee> live cd/usb, what ever the live media is
[02:09] <hydro> wilee-nilee, it works when i paste it, i must have made a typing error thanks
[02:09] <wcrasta> Is anyone here good with Binary?
[02:10] <ntzrmtthihu777> hydro: you can boot an iso with grub2, you know.
[02:10] <wilee-nilee> hydro, NO problem, at some point it will give you the url for the n=bootinfo script be sure to save that.
[02:10] <wilee-nilee> bootinfo summary*
[02:10] <wilee-nilee> !anyone | wcrasta
[02:11] <wcrasta> For like 16-bit signed binary addition, If you were to start at 0, and increment repeatedly (add 1), what pattern would you see (in signed mode)?
[02:12] <ChogyDan> wcrasta: is this for a class?
[02:13] <wcrasta> ChogyDan its a practice problem that im stumped on
[02:16] <hydro> wilee-nilee: ok here is the url it gave me http://paste.ubuntu.com/6057385/
[02:16] <ChogyDan> wcrasta: Ill entertain your question in #ubuntu-offtopic, but I don't really get it.  seems like no pattern to me...
[02:16] <hydro> wilee-nilee: also it said an error occured during the repair
[02:18] <LinuxGold> ok, I'm at loss.. trying to compile mapcrafter in an Ubuntu server with package-dev installed
[02:18] <LinuxGold> error is in the pastebin http://pastebin.com/5BdsYDD5
[02:18] <hydro> wilee-nilee, should i go ahead and reboot and see if it worked?
[02:19] <LinuxGold> something about stl_iterator_base_types
[02:19] <wilee-nilee> hydro, post that url
[02:19] <wilee-nilee> I see something hold on
[02:20] <hydro> wilee-nilee, it was http://paste.ubuntu.com/6057385/
[02:20] <wilee-nilee> hydro, If you mentioned uefi I missed it I know nothing about it.
[02:21] <hydro> wilee-nilee, it was http://paste.ubuntu.com/6057385/
[02:21] <hydro> wilee-nilee, someone mentioned that i might have uefi, why does it say that i have uefi?
[02:21] <wilee-nilee> hydro, look at sda1
[02:22] <mrdeb> is next lts release 14.04 for 5 years?
[02:22] <ntzrmtthihu777> !lts | mrdeb
[02:22] <hydro> wilee-nilee, I don't really understand it :/
[02:23] <mrdeb> ntzrmtthihu777: so which is it, 3 or 5
[02:23] <ChogyDan> hydro: i think that last error is ignorable.  it is complaining about your cdrom i think
[02:23] <ntzrmtthihu777> mrdeb: its plain to see. server version is 5, desktop 3
[02:23] <ghostx562> hello fellers!
[02:23] <hydro> ChogyDan alright I'm gonna try rebooting and hoping that everything works
[02:23] <mrdeb> 12.04 is 5 years
[02:23] <mrdeb> on desktop
[02:24] <ntzrmtthihu777> mrdeb: its the execption, read.
[02:24] <mrdeb> why exception
[02:24] <mrdeb> to get ppl to like unity? then 14.04 is 3 years, os that it
[02:24] <ntzrmtthihu777> mrdeb: dunno, I did not do it.
[02:24] <wilee-nilee> hydro, that makes two of us, my suggestion is to use the ubuntu forums there is a user there that focuses on this area, make a thread there have uefi in the header and post that url in it, here is there thread on the subject. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295
[02:24] <ghostx562> on me laptop, how do i make ubuntu auto boot, as in  i want it to load automatically so that i don't have to select it from grub im guessing
[02:24] <mrdeb> that is ok with me, 3 yrs
[02:25] <mrdeb> ghostx562: edit /etc/default/grub and change timeout to 0 seconds
[02:25] <ntzrmtthihu777> ghostx562: some /etc/default/grub settiing, I believe.
[02:25] <mrdeb> then u run sudo update-grub
[02:25] <wilee-nilee> mrdeb, Changing the default to 0 is not suggested.
[02:25] <ghostx562> wilee-nilee, suggestions?
[02:25] <wilee-nilee> ghostx562, This a single OS?
[02:25] <ghostx562> Yes.
[02:26] <wilee-nilee> ghostx562, Run sudo update-grub you should not see the grub menu then.
[02:26] <ghostx562> wilee-nilee, will try and report back.

[02:28] <ntzrmtthihu777> ghostx562: not sure, but there should be a config option. I use irssi and it sets up pretty well.
[02:28] <wilee-nilee> edit*
[02:28] <univer> #ubuntu 4 Live
[02:28] <joufflu> where does apache store the "index" file? I haven't used apache2 so I was looking for it in /etc/apache2/ but nothing :0(
[02:28] <daftykins> joufflu: /var/www/
[02:28] <ntzrmtthihu777> joufflu: /var/www
[02:29] <joufflu> thanks
[02:29] <ntzrmtthihu777> daftykins: a fellow irssi enthusiast?
[02:29] <joufflu> i am on irssi :-)
[02:29] <daftykins> well, i'm a newbie
[02:29] <ghostx562> zangaroo, i have it set as favorite, will check other settings
[02:29] <daftykins> i use it but i couldn't recall a single command for setup
[02:29] <mrdeb> yes
[02:29] <mrdeb> i would use irssi but cant get into freenode with it
[02:29] <daftykins> i mostly edit the config manually and copy bits to add extra channels :)
[02:30] <ntzrmtthihu777> http://imagebin.org/269613
[02:30] <daftykins> freenode works fine with it
[02:30] <ntzrmtthihu777> mrdeb: sure you can. is it asking for sasl?
[02:30] <mrdeb> yes
[02:30] <mrdeb> and idk know to fix it
[02:30] <xmetal> rightclick the channel name and "add to favorites"
[02:30] <ntzrmtthihu777> mrdeb: there's a guide, lemme get you a link...
[02:30] <xmetal> i think when you login xchat/hexchat has an "autojoin favorite channels" option
[02:31] <xmetal> (or close enough)
[02:31] <ghostx562> xmetal, it is set as favorite.
[02:31] <knoppix> hello
[02:31] <knoppix> there im new
[02:32] <ntzrmtthihu777> mrdeb: http://is.gd/qfJgwZ
[02:32] <ghostx562> hey knoppix.
[02:32] <hydro> wilee-nilee, usr13, and everyone else helping me, the boot-repair seemed to work
[02:33] <hydro> I'm now able to boot from my hardrive yay!
[02:33] <hydro> thanks for the help
[02:33] <ntzrmtthihu777> hydro: boot-repair is a very nice tool, lol. they should really add it to the repos and the live cd :3
[02:33] <xmetal> if its set to favorite channels, it should auto-join
[02:34] <ghostx562> xmetal, ok, ill give it a try to see how it works in a bit
[02:47] <crazyHorse> how can i uninstall landscape service and will it screw anything else up?
[02:47] <xmetal> hmm ... cant seem to get clonezilla (I have used imager before j ust not this one) to boot on this pc ... looking at clonezilla -vs - partimage
[02:48] <ntzrmtthihu777> crazyHorse: dpkg --get-selections | grep landscape will tell you the package, and you can check what it tries to remove on the way out.

[03:19] <rbennacer> hey guys, how can i stop ntp server from starting a the bootup, i have this weird issue where it just says "starting ntp server.." and it hang there
[03:19] <xmetal> back
[03:21] <xmetal> just looking at drive imaging options
[03:21] <xmetal> and "which one is best"
[03:24] <varunendra> xmetal, I think clonezilla is most popular for drive/partition imaging here. The only drawback (besides lack of pretty GUI) is that it can't restore an image to a partition smaller than the one it was taken from.
[03:25] <Dr_willis_> so you shrink the partions befor you make the backup? ;)
[03:26] <xmetal> the partition i'd restore would be the exact same size as the original
[03:26] <xmetal> (er that made no sense, lol)
[03:26] <xmetal> i wouldn't resize anything TIL AFTER i restore the image IS WHAT I AM SAYING
[03:26] <xmetal> oops @ capslock
[03:28] <willows12> I have a [text] file titled "-temp- note.txt~" and I can't move it or do anything to it. If I type "mv -temp- note.txt~ hi" I get the message: "mv: accessing `emp- note.txt~': No such file or directory". Any idea why the command doesn't work?
[03:29] <Dr_willis_> willows12,  mv  --    the-funny-filenaem     or
[03:29] <Dr_willis_> mv 'thefunnyfilename' a-sane-name
[03:29] <OerHeks> spaces in filenames, great invention
[03:29] <Dr_willis_>  dashs at the front of a file name = also annoying
[03:30] <willows12> Actually the command I enter is "mv -temp-\ note.txt~ hi".
[03:30] <ntzrmtthihu777> Dr_willis_: yep, why I tail my commands with --, keeps it from reading filename as an option.
[03:31] <ntzrmtthihu777> command -flags -- -dashfile.annoying
[03:31] <usr13> willows12: The tab key is your friend.
[03:31] <ntzrmtthihu777> willows12: mv -- -temp-\ note.txt~ hi
[03:32] <willows12> that worked! thanks
[03:32] <willows12> @ ntzrm
[03:33] <ntzrmtthihu777> willows12: it was reading -t as a flag. if your file begins with a -, terminate the command with -- so it doesn't read part of the filename as a flag.
[03:33]  * LinuxGold gives this one more pass -- trying to compile mapcrafter using make -- error can be found on pastebin http://pastebin.com/ukML9UeZ
[03:33] <willows12> ah, gotcha
[03:33] <LinuxGold> installed various dev packages, libboost, etc
[03:34] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: dunno. what's it for?
[03:34] <LinuxGold> ntzrmtthihu:  it's for mapping app to show maps in minecraft game -- trying to set up for my two boys
[03:35] <ntzrmtthihu777> I'm soon to switch to debian. canonical's schenanigans are getting on my nerves =_=
[03:35] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: pastebin? oh, I see it.
[03:35] <LinuxGold> I am running Ubuntu Server, console only.
[03:35] <LinuxGold> used apt-get to install compiler packages, dev packages, etc.
[03:35] <xmetal> i have to either find why this pc cant boot clonezilla completly (an old copy i admit it) or run partimage (which i do have experience in )
[03:37] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: do you have the newest source code for it? and maybe it requires a new version of gcc...
[03:37] <LinuxGold> what is the latest gcc version?
[03:37] <ntzrmtthihu777> xmetal: have an ubuntu livecd? it has gparted in the live environment.
[03:37] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: I'm using 4.7
[03:38] <LinuxGold> 4.6.3
[03:38] <LinuxGold> trying 4.7
[03:40] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: https://github.com/m0r13/mapcrafter/issues/1 << may be of interest to you.
[03:40] <LinuxGold> ok, I'll check it out
[03:40] <xmetal> ok i am thinking (this is going to take awhile, not on high speed) of trying the new version of clonezilla
[03:41] <xmetal> i get to the clonezilla menu but even if i select safemode ... it goes to a grey screen with blinking white cursor in top left corner
[03:41] <xmetal> and "sits there"
[03:45] <linuxuz3r> hi
[03:45] <linuxuz3r> i am seeing blue tint in my videos
[03:45] <linuxuz3r> how do i fix this
[03:45] <linuxuz3r> vlc and totem
[03:45] <jtannenbaum> convince me to continue using Ubuntu after a 40GB ~/.xsession-errors logfile crashed half the computer due to lack of disk space in the middle of doing homework (losing the homework) and doing big file transfer
[03:46] <jtannenbaum> doing file transfer
[03:46] <ntzrmtthihu777> jtannenbaum: its called maintenance.
[03:46] <jtannenbaum> I'm mostly kidding
[03:46] <xmetal> i am not against partimage ... i just never used clonezilla before (i do have a version from 2010 still) ... i just want to checkout the options for drive imaging since i am using linux more and more
[03:46] <linuxuz3r> i am seeing blue tint in my videos
[03:46] <linuxuz3r> vlc and totem
[03:46] <linuxuz3r> how do i fix this
[03:46] <jtannenbaum> but I'm serious about the 40gb xsession-errors
[03:46] <xmetal> (for everyday tasks)
[03:46] <xmetal> :)
[03:46] <ntzrmtthihu777> !patience | linuxuz3r
[03:47] <ntzrmtthihu777> jtannenbaum: sounds like you need to actually read the log and fix the issue. complaining about a symptom will not fix the underlying error.
[03:47] <jtannenbaum> [luckily when I rebooted, dropbox failed to start, and so the homework was still up on dropbox servers]
[03:48] <jtannenbaum> ntzrmtthihu777: I'm guessing it has something to do with the fact that I'm using Mate
[03:48] <xmetal> i keep seeing (i didn't miss that post) a few users mentioning gparted (one of my favorite programs) .. never thought of it for drive "imaging"/backup before
[03:48] <ntzrmtthihu777> jtannenbaum: and if you let a linux distro get that out of hand I'd pity you to see you on windows *shudder*
[03:48] <ntzrmtthihu777> xmetal: hell dd can do drive imaging :3
[03:49] <jtannenbaum> Windows doesn't let you install janky desktop environments that give you their own version of every basic Gnome program without removing the Gnome programs
[03:49] <Dr_willis_> dd - for manly men!
[03:49] <Dr_willis_> ;)
[03:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> dd if=/dev/sdxy of=$HOME/image.iso
[03:49] <jtannenbaum> a chid could use dd
[03:50] <jtannenbaum> child too
[03:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> jtannenbaum: yeah, but it does give you registry rot, dll hell, and fragmentation.
[03:50] <Dr_willis_> that really wouldent be an iso9660 image file. ;)
[03:50] <Artemis3> linuxuz3r, i know a workaround which is not a proper fix, just change the default output to x11
[03:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> jtannenbaum: should try gnome-panel; its damned nice, without all the stupid duplicate programs.
[03:51] <jtannenbaum> gnome-panel is just like, a launcher?
[03:51] <jtannenbaum> does it replace unity or something? my intent for installing mate was to not have unity
[03:52] <bug> hi anyone knows why the "error deleting file" "inputoutput error" im trying to repair an windows xp from and ubuntu usb machine that is missing file system but that error wont let me replace it
[03:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> jtannenbaum: nah, its a full desktop thingus. install gnome-panel and at the lightdm/gdm login screen choose gnome CLASSIC
[03:52] <wilee-nilee> jtannenbaum, without the effusive language it is the fallback desktop, a gnome 2 like option.
[03:52] <jtannenbaum> thanks
[03:52] <Dr_willis_> bug input/output = filesystem is currupted. or the disk is failing. or both - is a common reason
[03:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> jtannenbaum: also, look into bleachbit. run that weekly and you won't have a 40gb log file.
[03:53] <xmetal> i have to say that (still not my favorite) ... Unity doesn't seem as bad as it first did the more i try it on mint
[03:53] <jtannenbaum> thanks
[03:53] <ntzrmtthihu777> Dr_willis_: just what I was going to say.
[03:53] <bug> hi dr willis thanks for answering, is not only the file system that wont copy neither software or sam or default,does it means is a hardware problem?
[03:53] <xmetal> bleachbit = great program for any OS
[03:53] <xmetal> (any that it runs on )
[03:54] <wilee-nilee> jtannenbaum, Mate would not be supported here, however cinnamon is in the 13.04 ubuntu repos.
[03:54] <Dr_willis_> bug,  rephrase that last paragraph. ;) If the HD is failing. there will be info about it in the dmesg command output.
[03:54] <Dr_willis_> bug,  flakey hardware can cause all sorts of weirdness
[03:55] <linuxuz3r> ok thanks Artemis3
[03:55] <ntzrmtthihu777> Dr_willis_: yep, I need to get me a new hdd for my inspiron one 2205
[03:56] <nnmm> hello everybody there
[03:56] <linuxuz3r> ok thanks
[03:56] <nnmm> very noce ubuntu
[03:57] <bug> hi im sorry im new using ubuntu and still learning english, ill try doing that command i didnt knew what dmseg was but ive searched
[03:58] <bug> searched it thanks dr willis, ill try to use that command
[03:58] <xmetal> hmm should go back to studying how to use pSlice
[03:58] <LinuxGold> ok, I need libboost 1.52 apt-get doesn't list 1.52 -- now that is something I need to work on
[04:01] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: get the source. and use checkinstall to do your make install, it will wrap it up as a debian package for easy removal.
[04:02] <ntzrmtthihu777> and either do make clean before trying again or reclone it fresh.
[04:02] <LinuxGold> k
[04:03] <ntzrmtthihu777> why the hell doesn't ls have an octal flag =_= you'd think that would be standard. granted I got a nice perl wrapper and aliases for it, but damn that seems so trivial to add.
[04:03] <rbennacer> anyone had a problem with ntp server hanging in the boot?
[04:05] <ntzrmtthihu777> !anyone
[04:07] <matjam> rbennacer: if your using NetworkManager but have enabled ntpd, it will do a DNS lookup and probably time out
[04:07] <Dr_willis_> rbennacer,  check the forums and askubuntu.com yet?
[04:14] <CarlFK> I need to stop/start my cpu fan cuz it is failing and I haven't replaced it yet.  fancontrol is tempature based.. I just need a shell command I can use to top it.. sleep 5, start it up again
[04:15] <ntzrmtthihu777> CarlFK: figure out what module it uses and add it to blacklist.conf?
[04:15] <CarlFK> ntzrmtthihu777: what?
[04:15] <quietone> no launcher or top panel on 12.04 dekstop. Where do I read up on fixing that?
[04:16] <ntzrmtthihu777> CarlFK: the fan control should use some kernel module, yes? you can blacklist it so its not loaded at boot == dead fan.
[04:16] <wilee-nilee> LinuxGold, Its not even in my raring repos, I don;t see it at launchpad either.
[04:17] <LinuxGold> ?
[04:17] <ntzrmtthihu777> wilee-nilee: yeah, he's gonna hafta install from source.
[04:17] <wilee-nilee> quietone, New install or after tweaking?
[04:17] <wilee-nilee> LinuxGold, excellent answer, lol
[04:17] <LinuxGold> wilee-nilee you talking to me?
[04:17] <Dr_willis_> quietone,  test #1 - make a new user via the console - see if it works for the newly made user. if SO. then its a problem with the other users setting files
[04:18] <quietone> wilee-nilee, someone else tweaking. but compiz likely disabled
[04:18] <wilee-nilee> LinuxGold, Do you see your nick?
[04:18] <LinuxGold> yes was making sure it was directed at me properly.  I'm installing from source.
 but is it normal that it hangs, it should just skip it, right?
[04:18] <Dr_willis_> quietone,  if you have been tweaking.. then yes - that would point to a problem with the users settings. askubuntu.com should have a guide on how to totally reset the users compiz and unity settings
[04:19] <LinuxGold> thanks wilee-niles
[04:19]  * LinuxGold remembers compiling a kernel on 386 SX 16
[04:19] <matjam> rbennacer: it should time out eventually; yes
[04:19] <wilee-nilee> LinuxGold, I did not see all your posts, before signing in.
[04:20] <LinuxGold> wilee-nilee: if you want to review -- here is my pastebin: http://pastebin.com/ukML9UeZ
[04:20] <LinuxGold> that is my specific problem that I am working on
[04:20] <rbennacer> matjam,  i left it for 10 minutes and it didn't time out
[04:21] <rbennacer> matjam, anyway i change the timeout?
[04:21] <wilee-nilee> quietone, unity is a plugin in compiz, did you disable it on purpose?
[04:21] <matjam> rbennacer: I'd just configure the ntp.conf to use IPs instead of hostnames, that might work
[04:21] <matjam> though its better to use dns
[04:21] <matjam> hmm
[04:21] <ntzrmtthihu777> wilee-nilee: no compiz here, just metacity with compositing for docky :D
[04:22] <rbennacer> matjam, ok i will try
[04:22] <wilee-nilee> LinuxGold, Out of my area of helping, since I missed some of your posts I did not realize the git link.
[04:22] <matjam> rbennacer: are you using network manager?
[04:22] <quietone> wilee-nilee, I was told compiz was causing the screen issues on thin clients
[04:22] <LinuxGold> wilee-nilee: thanks for trying :)
[04:22] <rbennacer> matjam, i don't think so it is the server edition
[04:22] <wilee-nilee> quietone, Thin clients, not sure what that is.
[04:22] <matjam> hmm
[04:23] <ntzrmtthihu777> compiz is too much overhead, lol. Sure, its pretty as heck, but I can get all the compiz features I use with a carefully crafted wmctrl script :D
[04:23] <quietone> wilee-nilee, http://ltsp.org/
[04:23] <rbennacer> matjam, i am stuck at the boot , i can't even get into the terminal
[04:23] <matjam> yeah not sure, its not a problem I've seen unless either the network isn't up or dns isn't working
[04:23] <matjam> rbennacer: append the word "single" to the kernel boot parameters
[04:23] <ntzrmtthihu777> rbennacer: can't even open a tty with ctrl+alt+f1?
[04:23] <matjam> ^^ try that first
[04:24] <wilee-nilee> quietone, So it is a computer setup, but you are running the canonical release?
[04:24] <rbennacer> ntzrmtthihu777, nope
[04:24] <rbennacer> i just tried
[04:24] <quietone> wilee-nilee, 12.04 desktop
[04:24] <rbennacer> matjam, where can i add that?
[04:25] <CarlFK> ntzrmtthihu777: how would i turn the fan on?
[04:25] <ntzrmtthihu777> rbennacer: damn, that sucks. I got stuck without a gui before, got help here and browsed the web via irssi and lynx
[04:25] <Pikachu> Hello
[04:25] <rbennacer> hahaha
[04:25] <ntzrmtthihu777> CarlFK: oh, are you meaning like on/off? I thought you ment to disable it completely.
[04:25] <wilee-nilee> quietone, Who said compiz was the problem, they must not know it contains the unity desktop plugin, do you have the left side panel?
[04:25] <rbennacer> lynx is the shit haha
[04:25] <wilee-nilee> !language | rbennacer
[04:25] <quietone> wilee-nilee, no left panel
[04:26] <ntzrmtthihu777> CarlFK: setup a chron job for it.
[04:26] <wilee-nilee> quietone, Without compiz you have no unity, you might try another desktop.
[04:26] <CarlFK> ntzrmtthihu777: what command would the cron job run?
[04:26] <ntzrmtthihu777> quietone: try gnome-panel :P
[04:26] <ntzrmtthihu777> CarlFK: no clue here, just trying to help ;)
[04:26] <LinuxGold> olvm?
[04:26] <quietone> ntzrmtthihu777, how do i do that?
[04:27] <LinuxGold> *hides*
[04:27] <CarlFK> ntzrmtthihu777: awesome.
[04:27] <ntzrmtthihu777> quietone: apt-get install gnome-panel, choose it at the login screen (gnome CLASSIC)
[04:27] <Dr_willis_> quietone,  the lightest full featured desktop would be 'lubuntu-desktop'
[04:27] <Dr_willis_> quietone,  unless you sort of want to build your own. ;)
[04:27] <rbennacer> matjam, is there a way to bypass the ntp server start up ?
[04:28] <rbennacer> matjam, keep in mind that i have no access to the concole not even from recovery mode
[04:30] <LinuxGold> olwm even
[04:31] <Anthony396> Hello
[04:31] <quietone> Dr_willis_, thx. Still, I'd like to get it back to working with unity first

[04:40] <Anthony396> Only Beep is in alsamixer,
[04:41] <irritrea> Hi, i need to redo / change my password for ubuntuforums - i already had a user id for the forums - what is the solution ?
[04:41] <RPG-Master> OK, I used to be able to just click on bash scripts like whatever.sh and it would execute it. But now it isn't working. :(
[04:41] <Flannel> irritrea: #ubuntuforums is where you want to ask
[04:41] <ksdgjsdkgjks> RPG-Master: you gotta give it execution permissions
[04:41] <RPG-Master> I  have!
[04:42] <irritrea> Flannel: thanks , am going there
[04:42] <Anthony396> I could try reinstall ubuntu
[04:42] <ksdgjsdkgjks> RPG-Master: then try running it in a console to see why it isn't doing its thing
[04:42] <ntzrmtthihu777> RPG-Master: what de are you using? I've noticed it changes from de to de
[04:42] <Anthony396> Sound worked only first time
[04:42] <RPG-Master> ksdgjsdkgjks: It works then, but I'd rather not have to open the terminal when the file is right there in Nautilus.
[04:43] <Anthony396> It could be an update
[04:43] <RPG-Master> ntzrmtthihu777: standard 13.04
[04:43] <RPG-Master> Well, there was this one time...
[04:43] <RPG-Master> I replaced Nautilus with Merlin.
[04:43] <Anthony396> My sound does not work on Ubuntu 13.04
[04:43] <RPG-Master> Then I went back to Nautilus.
[04:43] <quietone> ntzrmtthihu777, I just learned that clicking on the logo allows one to select the desktop
[04:44] <ntzrmtthihu777> quietone: yep, nice, no?
[04:44] <quietone> the things a non ubuntu user learns
[04:44] <ntzrmtthihu777> I personally use gdm and gnome-panel, no other de's, so no issue.
[04:44] <LinuxGold> "merlin" brought me back to merlin electronic game...
[04:44] <RPG-Master> This involved me uninstalling Nautilus, making Merlin taker over the desktop, and then reversing the whole thing  like a week later.
[04:44] <LinuxGold> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx0yAvjUd60
[04:45] <RPG-Master> I'm not spelling it right...
[04:46] <irritrea> Hi, needed to know if any one is successfully running a wacom intuos 4 tablet in the "tablet to screen mode" on ubuntu, if so how to would be helpful
[04:47] <RPG-Master> So what could I have broke between uninstalling nautilus, installing another file manager, and then reversing it?
[04:48] <ntzrmtthihu777> irritrea: dunno, but wacom functions on my dell latitude xt2 work fine.
[04:48] <ntzrmtthihu777> RPG-Master: apt-get --reinstall purge nautilus?
[04:48] <RPG-Master> hmmm
[04:48] <RPG-Master> That is an option.
[04:49] <RPG-Master> FOUND IT!
[04:49] <Aaruni> ok, this is a serious problem now. nobody can access my Ubuntu machine on my local network. need to get this resolved ASAP.
[04:49] <RPG-Master> I am so stupid.
[04:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> RPG-Master: what was it?
[04:49] <irritrea> ntzrmtthihu777: does it work like a fancy mouse and pen or can you get it to work in tablet to screen mode - where the tablet boundaries are replicated on a window in the computer - restricting the tablet use area to an open screen in gimp etc
[04:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> !details | Aaruni
[04:49] <RPG-Master> It is under "Behavior" in Nautilus' preferences.
[04:49] <irritrea> mine works well like a mouse / pen etc
[04:49] <Aaruni> pings work all right, but you can't ssh into it, or access ftp, or even the webpages stored on /var/www
[04:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> RPG-Master: d'oh!
[04:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> irritrea: dunno, not an artist. it supports up to four touch points plus the pen with two buttons.
[04:50] <ksdgjsdkgjks> RPG-Master: you mean Marlin?
[04:50] <RPG-Master> "Executable Text Files: Run, Read, Ask"
[04:50] <RPG-Master> I had it set to read.
[04:50] <RPG-Master> ksdgjsdkgjks: Yes!
[04:50] <irritrea> ntzrmtthihu777: did it work out of the box or did you set it up
[04:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: any message on a ssh attempt?
[04:50] <RPG-Master> I know spell good.
[04:51] <ntzrmtthihu777> irritrea: it worked out of box once I installed the firmware (have to do that via win7, unfortuneatly)
[04:51] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: Ubuntu 12.04, 64-bit. LAMP server installed, openssh server installed, vsftpd installed. I can access ssh user@localhost. other machines can ping my machine. but services like ssh, ftp, and web page viewing attempts fail. a timeout error is shown on the device trying to connect.
[04:51] <ksdgjsdkgjks> RPG-Master: marlin is pretty good but not ready for prime time i think
[04:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> irritrea: or rather, it worked with single touch/pen before firmware, additional functionality after.
[04:52] <RPG-Master> ksdgjsdkgjks: Yep, it was pretty slick, but I was missing some features from Nautilus. Now, its been awhile since so I can't tell you what those features were. :P
[04:52] <Slickerish> Hi all. I just tried installing 13.04 on my laptop several times and each time the keyboard and mouse wont respond when i try to run it. They work fine on the live disk
[04:52] <irritrea> ntzrmtthihu777: what firmware
[04:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: what *exactly* does it say when you try to ssh into it? are you using keys or passwords? do you have an open port in your firewall? details!
[04:52] <ntzrmtthihu777> irritrea: n-trig digitizer firmware.
[04:53] <RPG-Master> Thanks again for being my emotional support while I fumbled into my solution! :P
[04:53] <irritrea> because mine works out of the box and with some additional installs it works well - only the tablet to screen mode does not work
[04:55] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: should I try ssh -v ? because i just tried ssh, and its just sitting there. a timeout error will occur shortly
[04:55] <Aaruni> I don't have any firewalls on ubuntu
[04:55] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: ssh : connect to host 192.168.0.101 port 22 : Operation timed out
[04:56] <ntzrmtthihu777> Artemis3: try using nmap to check if the host is up.
[04:56] <wilee-nilee> Slickerish, Are you running the installs with the update while installing box clicked and on the web?
[04:56] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: you mean me ?
[04:56] <ntzrmtthihu777> nmap 192.168.0.101; and are you using static ip's or dynamic.
[04:57] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: yeah, my bad XD
[04:57] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: static.
[04:57] <ntzrmtthihu777> irritrea: ah. well my 'wacom tablet' is actually my touch screen on this lappy; it uses the xserver-wacom drivers, though.
[04:58] <Slickerish> No. Shoild i be doing so?
[04:58] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: I'm assuming you have /etc/network/interfaces setup proper?
[04:58] <rbennacer> how can i prevent ntp service from starting?
[04:58] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: I didn't mess with anything. its all default. and I can access ssh user@localhost, and also http://localhost/
[04:58] <wilee-nilee> Slickerish, That is a problem some have with graphic drivers, just a guess but I would. This a desktop or a laptop?
[04:59] <irritrea> so not a real wacom standalone intuos tablet ?
[04:59] <rbennacer> i have rename all the files in the rc* directory and it keeps trying to start the ntp server when it boots
[04:59] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: you realize that localhost is *you*, right?
[04:59] <Slickerish> Its a laptop
[04:59] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: you should setup the ifup to set the static ip, and add ifup eth0 to /etc/rc.local
[05:00] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: yes. I can access localhost in ubuntu, that's how theadmin was trying to check my config the other day.
[05:00] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: ah, just to check that ssh was working and it was in fact another issue, yeah?
[05:00] <Aaruni> probably
[05:00] <wilee-nilee> Slickerish, I would also find the hardware info if possible on the keyboard and mouse and check the web, the keyboard is the on board? Be sure to use nicks here, you can tab complete them.
[05:00] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: the IP address allocation is taken care of by router.
[05:00] <Aaruni> *is being
[05:01] <jhile> Hey is there a problem with ubuntu 12.04.3 and nvidia 319 drivers?
[05:01] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: oh god. what router?
[05:01] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: D-Link DIR 615
[05:02] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: *whew* was afraid you had a motorola nvg510
[05:02] <Aaruni> lol
[05:02] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: check your router control page, there should/may be a setting to allow ssh to pass through.
[05:02] <LinuxGold> hmm
[05:03] <LinuxGold> boost source is still compiling as I speak...
[05:03] <newbie123> Hi everyone!
[05:03] <LinuxGold> *grin*
[05:03] <wilee-nilee> jhile, here are 3 threads, for help you want to state the issues to the channel. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=12.04.3++nvidia+319
[05:03] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: I can ssh into other machines from my machine, so I think no need to mess with that. I think this is an issue with ubuntu.
[05:03] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: I'm assuming you have it setup like current machine > router > server?
[05:05] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: its likely a config issue. do you have a head on the server?
[05:05] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: see, router is 192.168.0.1 . all other machines are 192.168.0.10x. out of that ,two are set on static, 192.168.0.100, and 192.168.0.101 . This router is wi-fi, and it also serves as a connection to the internet
[05:05] <jhile> wilee-nilee, what is the correct way to post a bug ?
[05:05] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: yeah. ubuntu desktop, with other things installed on top
[05:05] <wilee-nilee> !bugs
[05:05] <jhile> wilee-nilee, thank you
[05:06] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: ah. I've only done this with a pure ubuntu-server
[05:06] <wilee-nilee> no prob
[05:06] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: did you run nmap against the server like I suggested?
[05:07] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: http://txt.krow.me/1282 is the nmap output for quick scan
[05:07] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: go to the server and check out ufw
[05:09] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: Status: inactive
[05:09] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: if I understand right, the output you gave me shows that, for whatever reason, port 22 (or was it 23?) for ssh isnt' open, so it can't work.
[05:09] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: how to open port 22 ?
[05:10] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: someone correct me if this is wrong, but I think its sudo ufw allow 22
[05:10] <Aaruni> BTW, if 127.0.0.1 is a virtual loopback, and to your computer, it seems that someone else is connecting, and if that connects, then port 22 is open ?
[05:11] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: yes, iirc, but if I run ssh localhost/127.0.0.1 its testing a self connect, and not the other machine.
[05:11] <ntzrmtthihu777> unless I'm just stupid XD
[05:12] <LinuxGold> ok -- downloaded from source, tried to install it and didn't seem to upgrade properly.
[05:13] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: oh, seems sudo ufw allow ssh will do the trick as well.
[05:13] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: i think you have to remove the old version.
[05:13] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: but ufw is disabled!!!
[05:13] <ntzrmtthihu777> LinuxGold: or use update-alternatives, but that's a pita to setup XD
[05:14] <LinuxGold> :/
[05:14] <LinuxGold> url for update-alternatives please
[05:14] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: no need to shout, I'm just pointing out some area's to look at.
[05:14] <ntzrmtthihu777> !update-alternatives
[05:14] <ntzrmtthihu777> guess not :/
[05:14] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: thats for emphasis. shouting is CAPS
[05:14] <LinuxGold> lol
[05:15] <Aaruni> LinuxGold: maybe this ? http://linux.die.net/man/8/update-alternatives
[05:16] <EJ> would anyone be able to help me set up some port fowarding?
[05:16] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: just saying. I configured all this on ubuntu-server precise for ssh, so I'm just relating what I did to get it to work.
[05:17] <EJ> I just registered a domain name no no-ip and am trying to get it to work with my apache server
[05:17] <EJ> with*
[05:17] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: re-install the openssh server ?
[05:17] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: seems excessive.
[05:18] <ntzrmtthihu777> EJ: can't help you, but I'd like to hear of no-ip. looking to setup a webserver to host my website/minecraft mods :P
[05:20] <EJ> i registered a domain name here http://www.noip.com/ and am just trying to get it to look at my apache home directory
[05:26] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: VNC doesn't work either, while trying to get into ubuntu
[05:26] <Aaruni> you think some application has messed up settings ?
[05:27] <Aaruni> EJ: I'm pretty sure, that you can simply set up the domain name in the control panel, to point to the IP of whatever server your files are hosted to
[05:28] <Aaruni> ntzrmtthihu777: namecheap is good too
[05:28] <EJ> Aaruni: in the Apache control panel?
[05:28] <ntzrmtthihu777> Aaruni: thanks for the info. In any case, its very late here, so I must away. Hope you get sorted.
[05:28] <Aaruni> EJ: if I understand correctly, then you have your files hosted on a server, and only bought the domain name from no-ip
[05:29] <EJ> Aaruni: correct
[05:30] <Aaruni> EJ: then in your no-ip control panel, there has to be some setting like ip-tables. you can enter an ip address there to make your domain point to that address
[05:34] <EJ> Aaruni: in the configuration it shows my ip address (where the files are hosted),
[05:34] <Aaruni> EJ: what's the domain name ?
[05:34] <EJ> Aaruni: if i put my ip address in a browser it won't work but if i use localhost it will work
[05:35] <EJ> Aaruni: www.ejegyed.no-ip.biz
[05:35] <Aaruni> EJ: your host is not pointing to anything, at the moment.
[05:35] <Aaruni> *domain
[05:37] <irritrea> hi, whats the difference between vanilla ubuntu and ubuntu studio
[05:38] <cfhowlett> irritrea, for one thing, US is built on xubuntu so different desktop environment.  beyond that, US includes multimedia creation packages for audio, film, photographic production
[05:41] <testerer> Raring:  My USB WiFi dongle doesn't work (chipset ralink RT2571).   "lsusb" reveals it's connected and shows the vendor/device IDs.
[05:41] <testerer> ifconfig doesn't show wlan0.   But if i force it with ifconfig wlan0 up it magically appears
[05:42] <testerer> iwconfig causes the WiFi lights to turn on but no connection.  any ideas?
[05:43] <testerer> Better still, do you have a step by step guide to connecting this WiFi from the terminal?
[05:43] <wilee-nilee> testerer, Those need a wrapper and are a real hassle for some, personally I would get one that plugs and works.
[05:43] <LinuxGold> finally a progress
[05:44] <LinuxGold> went past 37% so far
[05:44] <testerer> wilee-nilee..oh pity i bought a bunch of them cheap and they work fine in kernel 2.6.32.x.   Maybe ndiswrapper will work?
[05:44] <wilee-nilee> possibly that is the usual answer I have seen, nothing on askubuntu
[05:44] <testerer> ok thanks trial and error i suppose
[05:45] <wilee-nilee> yeah iy can be
[05:45] <wilee-nilee> it*
[05:46] <Aaruni> wilee-nilee: canz you help with ssh problem ?
[05:46] <wilee-nilee> never use ssh myself
[05:47] <Aaruni> :(
[05:47] <cuzzo> Is there a command to tell if the monitor is receiving input?  I.E. the device may be connected to the monitor, but the monitor is displaying input from other source.  Is there a way to know that?
[05:50] <Dr_willis_> like if you have HDMI and VGA both connected. but are using VGA
[06:03] <Aaruni> ok, guys, if anyone here can still help, I did a complete nmap, and it shows many, many blocked ports..
[06:03] <jpds> Aaruni: Good.
[06:03] <Aaruni> jpds: why good ?
[06:04] <jpds> Aaruni: That's the way it's suppose to be.
[06:04] <Aaruni> jpds: I can't ssh into my machine. I need to be able to.
[06:04] <jpds> Aaruni: Then you need to check that just 22 is open.
[06:04] <Aaruni> 22 is blocked

[07:01] <LinuxGold> to save my time do-release-upgrade -d
[07:01] <LinuxGold> then will try again
[07:01] <cfhowlett> !who
[07:11] <Dr_willis_> qingluo,  what sort of issue are you having that you need to mes with those files?
[07:13] <Nicho_> no
[07:13] <Nicho_> yes
[07:15] <wagle> if you install 12.04 when 13.04 is already installed, it offers to run them "alongside each other"..  does it do this on the same partition, or separate?
[07:15] <Dr_willis_> it would be seperate wagle
[07:16] <Dr_willis_> You cant really have them both installed to the same partion
[07:16] <Nicho_> am i the first person?
[07:16] <Nicho_>    
[07:16] <cfhowlett> wagle, but why wouldyoudo such a thing?
[07:16] <wagle> LTS
[07:16] <Dr_willis_> Nicho_,  perhaps clarify the problem
[07:16] <cfhowlett> wagle, 12.04 is lts.  13.04 isn't.
[07:16] <Dr_willis_> do you REALLY have that big of a demand that you need LTS?
[07:16] <Nicho_> Sound does not work on Ubuntu 13.04, but it does on Windows. I don't have speakers.
[07:16] <wagle> right
[07:16] <Nicho_> I am using ear
[07:17] <Dr_willis_> Nicho_,  so how are you making sound at all?
[07:17] <Nicho_> alsamixer = Beep
[07:17] <Dr_willis_> Nicho_,  thats not really clarifying anything.. just repeating.
[07:17] <ashoksahoo> Hello
[07:17] <cfhowlett> Nicho_, by any chance, have you turned off the ubuntu speakers?
[07:17] <cfhowlett> ashoksahoo, greetings
[07:17] <Nicho_> nothing is off
[07:17] <Dr_willis_> 'using ear' - well - yes  most people hear sounds with their ears..
[07:17] <cfhowlett> :)  earphones perhaps?
[07:18] <ashoksahoo> I am installing debian in expert mode, and there is a point where its asks between 486 and 686 kernels
[07:18] <cfhowlett> ashoksahoo, this aint' debian.  they  have their own channel.  ask them
[07:18] <cfhowlett> !debian
[07:18] <Dr_willis_> cfhowlett,  im starting to just assume the dumbest interpertation of vague statements. ;) makes things more fun.
[07:18] <cfhowlett> Dr_willis_, understood.
[07:18] <qingluo> hi all how to mark someone to talk like  aaa: bbb: hello
[07:19] <Dr_willis_> since aparently now 'clarify' means just repeateing what you said.
[07:19] <cfhowlett> qingluo, ask for permission to go to private chat.
[07:19] <Dr_willis_> qingluo,  mark them where?
[07:19] <qingluo> yep
[07:19] <qingluo> just like the way u call me?
[07:20] <Dr_willis_> qingluo,  nick completion on the tab key.. its a common feature of most irc clients
[07:20] <Dr_willis_> Might be a good idea to read the docs for your irc client. ;)
[07:20] <Dr_willis_> !tab
[07:21] <wagle> i want lts because I dont want to replace the os in 9 months
[07:21] <Dr_willis_> wagle,  so upgrade?  i find that a rather poor reason to stick to LTS really.
[07:21] <Dr_willis_> if you are going to stick to LTS. why dual boot another ubuntu?
[07:21] <cfhowlett> Dr_willis_, for future use ... https://www.dropbox.com/s/s83smqd5jg37qnv/SLJ%20English%20Ad.jpeg
[07:21] <wagle> ok fine, i dont like where ubuntu is going on the desktop..
[07:22] <cfhowlett> wagle, so don't use it.  log out.  Choose a different desktop environment.  log in.  done.
[07:22] <Dr_willis_> wagle,  theres other desktops you can install. the next LTS release will include LUBUNTU as a LTS ive heard
[07:22] <Ogru> hELLO
[07:22] <Ogru> Hello
[07:22] <cfhowlett> ogra_, greetings
[07:22] <LinuxGold> use Windows 8 then
[07:22]  * LinuxGold hides
[07:23] <Ogru> Any chance I can get some help ? ;]
[07:23] <Nicho_> hi
[07:23] <cfhowlett> wagle, your computer, your choice.  if you want LTS for long-term support, seems silly and counterproductive to also install a short-term support version.  Think it through.  Is it possible.  sure.  is it advisable?  well...
[07:23] <vlt> Ogru: No
[07:24] <Dr_willis_> !ask
[07:24] <cfhowlett> !ask|Ogru,
[07:24] <wagle> i installed 13.04, and consider that to be a mistake, so am installing 12.04
[07:24] <Ogru> ok. I'm struggling to bridge the wlan0 interface
[07:24] <Dr_willis_> wagle,  13.10 is due out soon. ;)
[07:24] <Ogru> with tap0 interface
[07:25] <Ogru> i'm using 12.04
[07:25] <cfhowlett> wagle, and by installing you mean in place of 12.04?  then don't install NEXT to 12.04.
[07:25] <wagle> i'm not
[07:25] <wagle> i was surprised at having such a choice and wondered
[07:26] <cfhowlett> wagle, ubuntu is flexible if nothing else ...
[07:26] <Dr_willis_> Good old Grub and its Os-probeing-mindreading skills
[07:28] <Ogru> I'm struggling to bridge the wlan0 interface with tap0 interface. I'm using 12.04 64bit. I used iw dev wlan0 set 4addr off and enabled WDS on my home router but still no luck.
[07:29] <Ogru> sorry I meant  iw dev wlan0 set 4addr on
[07:30] <wagle> my theory was that acpiutils (?) was needed to probe my wifi hardware, but it should have been installed by default?
[07:31] <kick> hello world!
[07:31] <cfhowlett> kick, greetings
[07:33] <wagle> sorry, not finding that on my 12.04 system
[07:34] <wagle> acpi-support, maybe?
[07:35] <cfhowlett> wagle, check the name.  acpiutils not in the repos.
[07:35] <wagle> cfhowlett: yeah, thats what i said, sorry
[07:36] <cfhowlett> wagle, look at the feedback from this terminal command:   apt-cache policy acpi*
[07:37] <Ogru> away
[07:37] <wagle> my experience was my wifi didnt work on archlinux, but worked out of the box on ubuntu..  the main difference seemed to be that package being installed, but i couldnt get it to work for archlinux
[07:37] <wagle> so i dunno if thats it
[07:37] <lord4163> Hello
[07:38] <cfhowlett> lord4163, greetings
[07:38] <nerdtron> wagle, what kernel did you use in arch??
[07:38] <lord4163> I installed Linux MInt on a computer here with an ATI 9200 Pro, do I have to install fglrx or something else?
[07:38] <wagle> nerdtron: dunno..  whatever they used 2-3 months ago
[07:38] <nerdtron> lord4163, if it's working you don't have to
[07:39] <nerdtron> wagle, and what version of ubuntu di you use?
[07:39] <wagle> 12.04 works fine out of the box on the notebook
[07:39] <lord4163> nerdtron: No it's not working X won't even start
[07:39] <wagle> same with 12.10
[07:39] <wilee-nilee> !mint | lord4163
[07:39] <cfhowlett> !mint|lord4163,
[07:40] <lord4163> wilee-nilee: it's the same shit 12.04
[07:40] <wilee-nilee> then install 12.04 for support and don't swear
[07:40] <nerdtron> lord4163, chill out...what model is your laptop?
[07:40] <cfhowlett> lord4163, language.  and profanity and attitude aside, linuxmint has their own channel for a reason.  go there and get your answers
[07:41] <lord4163> nerdtron: No its an desktop.
[07:41] <cfhowlett> nerdtron, mint isn't supported here.
[07:41] <lord4163> wilee-nilee: No, I don't want unity or xfce, lubuntu has no LTS.
[07:42] <nerdtron> wagle, what model is your laptop? and did you ask the forums of Arch linux, people are really helpful there
[07:42] <wagle> eh, i'm fine with 12.04 now..  will worry about archlinux maybe in a year or three
[07:46] <lord4163> nerdtron: you know what driver to install? :)
[07:47] <nerdtron> lord4163, sorry, i don't know, i'm not using ati or nvidia drivers
[07:47] <Karan_> Does any python programmers online?
[07:48] <ShutemDown> I'm having a problem using my password on a new user account.  I did useradd NAME -p PASSWORD
[07:48] <cfhowlett> !python|Karan_,
[07:48] <ShutemDown> I can su into the user account, but I can't change or use the password
[07:49] <ShutemDown> Its in the sudo group btw
[07:49] <ShutemDown> i tried blank password, i tried the root password, i tried the password I set when I created the account
[07:50] <Karan_> I've written an python media player program. I need to import the user set volume. How can i do?
[07:50] <ShutemDown> When creating a new user, does it matter the order of the options?
[07:50] <cfhowlett> Karan_, best to ask in python ...
[07:50] <ShutemDown> Karan, you're in the wrong room, go to #python
[07:50] <Karan_> Cool.
[07:51] <ubuntini> good morning :) is there any way to manage apc usvs via the network management interface from the usv with ubuntu or something else?
[07:52] <ubuntini> *ups
[07:52] <nerdtron> ubuntini, explain a little bit more? usv? apc? usvs?
[07:53] <wagle> is there a standard way to get disks mounted without being owned by the current user?
[07:54] <ubuntini> nerdtron: APC is a big factory which distributes universal power supplies for power interrupt / loss.
[07:54] <geirha> wagle: Add an entry for it in /etc/fstab, with the user or users options (see man mount)
[07:55] <wagle> geirha: is there a gui, or do i have to use my clui bat?
[07:55] <geirha> wagle: There might be, but none that I've tried.
[07:56] <wagle> ah ok
[07:57] <rkhshm> i just installed debian on my machine and the GUI seems to be a bit odd http://imagebin.org/269637 . what are the essential drivers if any needed?
[07:58] <auronandace> rkhshm: this is for ubuntu support, not debian
[07:58] <cfhowlett> !debian|rkhshm,
[07:58] <DJones> rkhshm: Debian has its own support channel #debian, probably best asking in there
[08:01] <lord4163> wilee-nilee: still dead in that channel.
[08:05] <nerdtron> lord4163, maybe because it is night time
[08:06] <auronandace> nerdtron: you mean its night time in your timezone
[08:07] <nerdtron> auronandace, it's daytime here in PH,, i say it's nighttime mostly in US
[08:07] <cfhowlett> nerdtron, afternoon in Beijing ...
[08:07] <auronandace> morning in uk
[08:08] <nerdtron> haha  i'm just used to being always night time  when i talk to other people in the forums or IRC :)
[08:11] <ashoksahoo> hello
[08:11] <ashoksahoo> I am upgrading an embeded system from old release
[08:12] <ashoksahoo> If I remove unwanted softwares like office, mail clients, games, will it be installed back in new relese
[08:12] <cfhowlett> ashoksahoo, depends on your upgrade method; clean install will install all default packages.  online upgrade will not.
[08:21] <elektrikx> hi
[08:31] <qingluo> hi all, my startup image not a login frame as i wanna, i have to press ctrl+alt+F2 to change to a tty view, is there any auto script can do this smart!?
[08:42] <wagle> is there a way to restore my 13.04 homedir to a 12.04 system?  ie, ignore the 13.04 specific stuff?
[08:42] <cfhowlett> wagle, you mean you just want the data?
[08:43] <ActionParsnip> wagle: you can restore casual user data easily
[08:43] <nerdtron> wagle, copy paste you data folders
[08:43] <cfhowlett> wagle, don't copy the .hidden folders
[08:45] <wagle> well, i want my firefox config, for example
[08:46] <wagle> qingluo: see the kbd package?
[08:48] <qingluo> wagle: i dont have such config files
[08:51] <nerdtron> wagle, if you want firefox config, copy the .mozilla folder
[08:52] <nerdtron> wagle, BTW, use firefox to sync bookmark, and passwords, addons, it's a lot better than copy paste
[08:53] <wagle> tried sync, it dies for me
[08:53] <wagle> and botches up my bookmarks
[09:02] <me-1> hi ...just installed ubuntu but cant install anything http://paste.ubuntu.com/6058199/
[09:04] <me-1> I need your help http://paste.ubuntu.com/6058199/
[09:05] <DJones> me-1: Is it a fresh install? Try running sudo apt-get update and then running your install command, it may be that the database is out of date & needs refreshing first
[09:07] <me-1> DJones: yes it is a fresh install but command you mention gives me error http://paste.ubuntu.com/6058207/
[09:08] <wagle> are you connected to the internet?
[09:08] <wagle> me-1: ^^^
[09:09] <me-1> wagle: yes I am connected
[09:09] <wagle> so the new system can directly connect to the paste server?
[09:10] <me-1> wagle:  yes writhing these words from same computer
[09:10] <TNTS> Hi, how do I remove Windows 7 from an Ubuntu dual-boot?
[09:10] <wagle> me-1: ok
[09:10] <DJones> me-1: That looks like the repository you're using might be down, it might be worth changing which server you're connected to
[09:11]  * wagle thinks, and nothing happens
[09:12] <me-1>  DJones I was thinking the same . How can I change mirror
[09:12] <DJones> me-1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu If you look at that and maybe change the download server to a different one, that may solve the issue
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> me-1: use software centre
[09:38] <sugoofy> root@mickey:/#su goofy && ssh goofy.com                        -- why does this fail? result: goofy@mickey:/$ exit
[09:38] <sugoofy> exit
[09:38] <sugoofy> Permission denied (publickey).
[09:38] <sugoofy> I'd expect the permission error for any user other than goofy. How can combine su user with another command in one line?
[09:38] <FloodBot1> sugoofy: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:39] <sugoofy> @floodbot1 update your algorithm.
[09:40] <igalic> sugoofy: sudo -Hu goofy ssh goofy.com
[09:41] <sugoofy> if i run sudo -Hu goofy, will it use goofy's account to try and login to goofy.com?
[09:41] <igalic> sugoofy: yes
[09:41] <igalic> I assumed that's your intent.
[09:42] <sugoofy> wow. works like a charm. as they say: thanks a ton mate!!!!
[09:42] <igalic> you're perfectly welcome, sugoofy

[10:27] <Dreamcooled> Hi there. I've a question regarding the gnome fallback desktop environment. Is it possible that there's no transparency support for an applications Drag&Drop?
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> Dreamcooled: if you use compiz as your WM, it will use the same settings as in the Unity based session
[10:32] <Dreamcooled> ActionParsnip: I didn't change anything on that after installing ubuntu. So it should still be Compiz, and therefore I should have the same behavior ?
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> Dreamcooled: sure, just disable the Unity plugin
[10:43] <sunsetlover> hey, i got a problem with my wifi (broadcom 4313) and i didn't find any solution for it only uninstalling the bcm driver from my ubuntu 12.04 and keep it works using the driver came by default. any one know how to fix this problem?
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> sunsetlover: blacklist the driver you don't want it to use
[10:46] <Dreamcooled> ActionParsnip: It seems that metacity is running, with composite off
[10:48] <testerer> my apt-get package management is corrupted i'm getting gpg errors and missing files..How can I restore it back to default?
[10:48] <sunsetlover> ActionParsnip, so you mean no need to use bcm driver, and to keep working on the default one ?

[10:56] <schlitzer|work> hey all, is there a way to prefere "A" DNS queries over "AAAA" queries?
[10:56] <rammy> hello anyone setup R Studio on Ubuntu 13.10
[10:57] <schlitzer|work> the problem is that requests to short names will get a dns timeout on AAAA records, but requests on shortnames with an "A" requests succeed immediately
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> sunsetlover: whichever makes it work
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> rammy: Saucy isnt supported here
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> rammy: ask in #ubuntu+1 Saucy is offtopic here til release day
[11:00] <ufk_> how can i check if systemd is running properly?
[11:00] <rammy> oh ok thanks
[11:01] <rammy> I mean thanks ActionParnsip
[11:01] <jrib> ufk_: you're aware ubuntu uses upstart by default and not systemd?
[11:03] <Guest43617> Hi guys! Have one Q. I was sure that Ubuntu LTS runs on a 3.2 kernel. But in my system information, it says i'm running a 3.8 kernel. Does Ubuntu update the kernel by itself? And if yes, how does that reflect on stability of the system? I mean, i am using LTS primarily for stability :) Thanks in advance!
[11:03] <ufk_> yeah
[11:03] <jrib> Guest43617: ubuntu only updates if you ask it to (by default)
[11:04] <Guest43617> hmmm, thing is, i'm sure i didn't ask it to. How do i check for sure which kernel i'm running?
[11:04] <Kiwikaki> uname -a
[11:04] <MrQuist> uname -a
[11:05] <MrQuist> lol
[11:05] <Kiwikaki> :)
[11:05] <Guest43617> ok, the output is: Linux holden 3.8.0-29-generic #42~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 14 16:19:23 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[11:06] <Guest43617> so isn't here supposed to be 3.2?
[11:06] <geirha> Guest43617: Perhaps you've added a PPA with newer kernels...?
[11:06] <Guest43617> geirha , i'll check the software sources. one second
[11:07] <jrib> Guest43617: this is something you have setup/asked for.  You can do « apt-cache policy linux-image » and dpkg -l '*linux-image*' | grep '^ii'
[11:07] <geirha> Guest43617: apt-cache policy linux-image
[11:07] <Axlin> It's possible you have security updates installed automatically. 3.8 is the latest version available to Precise (12.04).

[11:10] <Guest43617> ok jrib, one second, will repeat
[11:11] <ck> who can help ubuntu member cloak
[11:11] <jrib> Guest43617: use a pastebin (and do geirha's command)
[11:11] <bazhang> !member > ck
[11:12] <Dreamcooled> ActionParsnip: Thank you for your help. I had composition off. (It's strange that the ubuntu filebrowser can do drag&drop with transparency WITHOUT having the WM-composition on.)
[11:12] <Guest43617> How do i use patebin?
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> Dreamcooled: well, what is going to draw the icons?
[11:13] <uhpnou> 13.04 -> Cannot shutdown or reboot from lightdm -> No other users active -> It happens even after a fresh reboot. -> Anyone helps?
[11:13] <ck> bazhang: yes
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> Guest43617: you can do it in cli using pastebinit, or copy the text and go to pastie.org and make the paste there
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> Guest43617: you will need to copy the new address in the web browser once the page changes
[11:13] <Ben66> Guest43617: the answer you're probably looking for is here... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Release/Rolling

[11:19] <Guest43617> Ben66: so it means i have a 3.2 kernel, but 3.8's hardware enablement?
[11:19] <StigThe> http://pastebin.com/VvUqNGsA
[11:19] <Ben66> Guest43617: not really, you just have raring's kernel

[11:19] <sunsetlover> hey, i'm trying to configure the vpn on my account and i made new vpn client i put the address and username and password. after that i tried to get connected by this vpn but it gives me connection failed
[11:20] <StigThe> same link though
[11:20] <jrib> Ben66: I don't think that rolling kernel link reflects the actual state of 12.04, does it?
[11:20] <Guest43617> Ben66: how did it come to this? I don't remember it asking me if i wanted that...
[11:20] <Ben66> jrib: new installs use it, if you installed 12.04 at release you'd still be on 3.2
[11:21] <jrib> Ben66: they use the enablement stack, but those aren't the package names use are they (-current, -hwe)?  At least I can't find those packages on my 12.04
[11:21] <Guest43617> oh, so point release 12.4.3 uses it by default?
[11:21] <Ben66> !info linux-hwe-generic precise
[11:21] <Guest43617> *12.04.3, sorry
[11:21] <Ben66> Guest43617: yeah
[11:22] <StigThe> MonkeyDust: http://pastebin.com/VvUqNGsA
[11:22] <Guest43617> And how does that work out stability wise? Because i thought the point of having a LTS is sticking to a more tested kernel?
[11:23] <jrib> Ben66: you're right.  I wasn't specifying "flavor".  I usually point to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack though
[11:23] <MonkeyDust> StigThe  i want to know if you don't have obsolete sources, i need the outcome of sudo apt-get update
[11:23] <Ben66> Guest43617: the kernel really isn't the unstable bit
[11:23] <Axlin> The latest stable kernel officially from kernel.org is 3.11. You'll be fine using 3.8. And even if it gave you problems, you currently have both 3.2 and 3.8 installed and could easily fall back to 3.2.
[11:24] <Ben66> jrib: oh cool, haven't seen that link
[11:24] <StigThe> MonkeyDust: http://pastebin.com/LjKdQXmj
[11:25] <Guest43617> Ben66: OK, so it's basically a safe way of making LTS a viable solution for newer hardware constantly, while keeping older, well tested packages on top of it?
[11:25] <Ben66> Guest43617: you got it
[11:26] <Guest43617> Ben66: Thanks for clarifying! Was kind of surprised when i saw it and didn't know how it works out. Thanks!
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> Guest43617: if you start using 3rd party kernels then we cannot support you here. If you are using Precise then you will need to use 3.2 or 3.5 (from backports)
[11:26] <StigThe> MonkeyDust: I used to have third party sources, but I removed them from Software Sources
[11:26] <Axlin> He's not using a third pary kernel...
[11:26] <MonkeyDust> StigThe  that's a lot of sources, i wonder if some are conflicting, but cannot give advice
[11:26] <StigThe> MonkeyDust: I removed them after I tried to fix it myself
[11:27] <Guest43617> ActionParsnip: I don't use anything third party, i just installed the .3 version of 12.04
[11:27] <Ben66> !info linux-image-generic-lts-raring precise | ActionParsnip
[11:28] <StigThe> MonkeyDust: There were 4 diffrent sources under "Other Sources" But as I said, I removed them.
[11:28] <StigThe> MonkeyDust: Okey, I'll try to figure something out
[11:29] <StigThe> MonkeyDust: I also have an error Icon saying: Error: BrokenCount > 0
[11:30] <StigThe> But I don't know if that helps you
[11:31] <StigThe> Is there a way to completely remove the applications manually that are causing trouble? I assume it's OpenJDK 6 and 7

[11:37] <sara_LTS_12> hi room one small question : how can i download any video from internet ( i don't want youtube) i mean educational videos e.g present on http://videolectures.net/eswc2012_grobelnik_big_data/
[11:38] <sara_LTS_12> ?
[11:38] <sara_LTS_12> i have tried many flash video downloader extensions
[11:38] <volneikroeger> Hello, I have an image LTSP to meet about 200 department stores with 2,000 workstations in my country, I'm in trouble for the ubuntu 12.04 with unity.
[11:38] <volneikroeger> In Ubuntu 10.04 Gnome allowed to add a taskbar at the bottom of the screen in Ubuntu 12 could not do this without using the classic mode. And the classic mode freezing some types of thinclients when using certain applications.
[11:38] <volneikroeger> So I thought I would follow one of two paths:
[11:38] <volneikroeger> 1 - Add to the taskbar in Unity mode.
[11:38] <volneikroeger> 2 - Compile the gnome in Ubuntu 10.04 Ubuntu 12:04.
[11:38] <volneikroeger> Does anyone know how to add a taskbar in Ubuntu 12 Unity or is there some way to do this?
[11:38] <volneikroeger> The only thing I found about this was one taskbar third party.
[11:38] <FloodBot1> volneikroeger: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> volneikroeger: if you run a panel app it will show, tint2 and gnome-panel are examples of this
[11:40] <jrib> volneikroeger: consider xubuntu or lubuntu
[11:40] <john_rambo>  I suddenly can't play videos with vdpau ....I checked .....the non free driver is in use...How to troubleshoot ?
[11:41] <testbot9000> So how about them apple devices eh? 73LPR
[11:41] <volneikroeger> ActionParsnip: At Ubuntu 12 can i add the gnome-panel as a taskbar?
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> volneikroeger: ubuntu 12 isn't a thing
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> volneikroeger: there is ubuntu 12.04 and ubuntu 12.10
[11:43] <volneikroeger> ops, 12.04
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> volneikroeger: you can install and run gnome-panel if you wish, you will also have the top panel as you see now
[11:45] <AllahFartface> So how about them apple devices eh? 6I9LP
[11:45] <AllahFartface> سمَـَّوُوُحخ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ امارتيخ ̷̴̐خ
[11:45] <LinuxGold> upgraded ubuntu to 13.04 and finally got mapcrafter to work!
[11:46] <volneikroeger> ActionParsnip: Thank you! I going try this now.
[11:59] <karab44> Hey I have a bug with triggering restart my PC when klick on shutdown before any further action
[12:00] <karab44> I am natively using gnome and this bug is known and there's a ticket but I found out that it's visible only if I run kVirc so kde application could somehow interferee with gnome.

[12:03] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[12:03] <karab44> anybody can notice or test my finding?
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> karab44: how do you not natively use gnome?
[12:04] <karab44> I use
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> karab44: hw does one 'natively use Gnome' exactly?
[12:05] <karab44> What do you mean? I use clean system, installed yesterday
[12:05] <karab44> no fancy mods or tweaks
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> karab44: then you are using gnome, there is no 'natively' about it
[12:05] <karab44> whatever
[12:06] <karab44> I could use kubuntu with gnome aswell
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> karab44: doesnt make a difference
[12:07] <karab44> The point is that I have found something that could speedup investigation and fixing
[12:08] <teachme> hey guys having a heck of a time running a sh as root on boot anyone here that can help ?
[12:08] <gordonjcp> teachme: !password
[12:08] <gordonjcp> nope
[12:08] <jrib> teachme: why do you want to?
[12:08] <teachme> i need to mount a harddrive
[12:09] <teachme> since i upgraded to 13.04 it wont work with fstab anymore
[12:09] <teachme> only thing i found that would mount it is this command
[12:09] <gordonjcp> o_O
[12:09] <jrib> teachme: what command?
[12:09] <teachme> sudo mount.cifs //192.168.1.101/my_book /mnt/sick -o user=me,sec=ntlm
[12:09] <karab44> hahaha I just "fixed" it
[12:09] <teachme> that works
[12:09] <karab44> I added quit confirmation when closing kvirc
[12:09] <jrib> teachme: so why don't you run that command from the normal desktop environment you boot into?
[12:10] <gordonjcp> teachme: you need to work out why it doesn't work with fstab then
[12:10] <teachme> i need it to do it automatically
[12:10] <teachme> google search says its a kernel issue with 13.04
[12:10] <jrib> teachme: I don't see how booting into a shell as root would make it any more automatic
[12:10] <jrib> teachme: in any case, put the proper translation of that command in fstab and consider using _netdev (see man mount and the documentation ubottu is about to send you)
[12:10] <gordonjcp> teachme: so, find out what is wrong and fix it
[12:10] <teachme> this line worked in fstab with ubuntu 12
[12:11] <jrib> !smb | teachme
[12:11] <luwei> #join pythonchallenge
[12:11] <jrib> teachme: what is "this line"?

[12:11] <luwei> join pythonchallenge
[12:11] <teachme> that line worked with ubuntu 12
[12:11] <jrib> teachme: don't you need networking up?
[12:12] <teachme> gordonjcp fix the kernel ?
[12:12] <teachme> i made an sh file set it to auto start added it to my sodoers so it wouldnt need password like google suggested still didnt work
[12:13] <jrib> teachme: in any case, put the proper translation of that command in fstab and consider using _netdev (see man mount and the documentation ubottu is about to send you)  <-- has this not worked for you?
[12:13] <teachme> havent tried _netdev
[12:13] <jrib> teachme: ok, try that.
[12:14] <teachme> where can i read about that
[12:14] <jrib> teachme: see man mount and the documentation ubottu sent you
[12:14] <teachme> i didnt recieve anything

[12:40] <tomtenberge> hello everyone
[12:43] <tomtenberge> i have a problem and i hope someone here can help me, i am working on getting ubuntu set up on a laptop, and i got almost everything working except for one thing, the graphics, i have had someone from the xorg chat already check my corg log, and that person says xorg is using the SIS driver, but when i look in gnomes settings/details, i still see that it is using VESA drivers and is running in fallback mode anyone got a idea what is going on?
[12:45] <philinux> tomtenberge: would help if you said which graphics card you have
[12:45] <tomtenberge> let me post the xorg pastebin link..
[12:46] <tomtenberge> this is the pastebin for the xorg log http://pastebin.com/R2i8ZL6J it seems to detect it correctly
[12:50] <philinux> tomtenberge: This doesnt sound good.     Dear SiS76x user, your machine is using a shared memory framebuffer. Due to hardware limitations of the SiS chip in combination with the	AMD CPU, video overlay support is very limited on this machine. If you experience flashing lines in the video and/or the graphics display	during video playback, reduce the color depth and/or the resolution	and/or the refresh rate. Alternatively, use the video blitter.
[12:50] <tomtenberge> i know...
[12:50] <tomtenberge> but still... it should work i would think
[12:51] <philinux> tomtenberge: indeed it is in fallback mode
[12:51] <tomtenberge> and... the big thing is, how do i get it out of fallback
[12:52] <tomtenberge> >.< i been googling my ass off but i can find anything
[12:53] <philinux> tomtenberge: if the machine is running well with the correct resolution I'm not sure waht u can do
[12:54] <DJones> tomtenberge: SIS isn't something I've come across myself, but I seem to remember that it doesn't seem to be very well supported in Linux
[12:55] <tomtenberge> it indeed is not overly supported
[12:55] <tomtenberge> and it is running okay for normal desktop stuff...
[12:55] <tomtenberge> but it is running in full software rendering at the moment it seems
[12:55] <tomtenberge> and hence i can even watch a decent video or anything
[12:56] <tomtenberge> and i can't run minecraft :P
[12:57] <philinux> tomtenberge: what does this say. use copy and paste into a terminal     lspci | grep VGA
[12:57] <tomtenberge> lemme see\
[12:58] <tomtenberge> it says "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter"

[12:59] <carlfq> hi all. i have an issue with ubuntu 13.04 on my asus zenbook. from time to time, the screen randomly turns off and will stay turned off until i press a key.
[13:00] <jozefk> carles, :) check the screensaver
[13:00] <philinux> tomtenberge: maybe sis have updated there website by now or the other link at the bottom might help
[13:00] <jozefk> sorry, carlfq
[13:00] <carlfq> this seems to be related to a "CPU?: Package power limit notification" in the syslog
[13:00] <carlfq> jozefk: no screensaver activated
[13:01] <carlfq> and sometimes it takes a while, sometimes only a minute
[13:01] <jozefk> ok
[13:01] <carlfq> its really kinda randomly
[13:01] <jozefk> then observe it and try to see if anything happens right before the screen goes off
[13:01] <carlfq> could not find anything serious about that power limit notification on the web, too
[13:02] <tomtenberge> so i should go to schhofer...
[13:02] <carlfq> i dont think so. what would you mean, "anything"?
[13:02] <Guest53110> is that true that cinnamon will become obsolete as time progresses.
[13:02] <carlfq> it started a bit after upgrading from 12.10 to 13.04
[13:03] <carlfq> so it occurs for about half a year now
[13:03] <philinux> tomtenberge: either sis or sch... yep . unless a better driver found you're stuck
[13:03] <carlfq> couldnt see any cause for it so far
[13:03] <jozefk> carlfq, I mean you could probably notice which apps are open, what you are doing exactly right before the screen goes off. should be possible to find out the reason that way
[13:03] <nObody52> pls join #lezbiyen
[13:03] <tomtenberge> i am gonna try the other driver.
[13:04] <jozefk> half a year you have that issue?
[13:04] <philinux> tomtenberge: ok good luck
[13:04] <Pici> nObody52: do not advertise channels here.
[13:04] <tomtenberge> will let you know how it goes
[13:04] <carlfq> jozefk: various things. watching a youtube video, surfing, just doing something offline. i cant see any similiarities..
[13:05] <carlfq> yep, nearly half a year
[13:05] <nObody52> why
[13:05] <xtriz1> Pici, is that true that cinnamon will become absolute with newer version of GTK getting released ?
[13:05] <carlfq> sometimes it happens many times an hour, sometimes never over the whole day
[13:05] <Pici> xtriz1: I have no idea, sorry.
[13:05] <DJones> nObody52: This is a support channel for Ubuntu, please see the channel topic when joining
[13:05] <xtriz1> Pici, np :)
[13:06] <carlfq> it seems to be better when it does not run on battery but the power plug is plugged in. but it doesnt fully stop then either
[13:06] <jozefk> carlfq, it must be possible to find out the reason by observing. I believe so. Or else try live linux or some other distro just to make sure if it is hardware issue or system issue
[13:07] <carlfq> ok. have you got a hint for other logfiles to look at and check for a potential reason?
[13:08] <tsongki> is it safe to do autoremove command in apt-get
[13:08] <|ryan|> yes
[13:08] <carlfq> tsongki: yep. it just removes the packages which were installed as dependencies of packages you removed
[13:08] <xtriz1> Pici, if i am using 13.04 and have installed apache server running different services, than  after upgrade to 13.10 will be a smooth ride or there will be breakages ? assuming that i am not installing additional ppa.
[13:08] <xtriz1> or it's more better to use 12.04 LTS
[13:08] <tsongki> thanks carlfq
[13:09] <carlfq> jozefk: have you got a hint for other logfiles to look at and check for a potential reason?
[13:09] <Pici> xtriz1: It should be smooth, but I tend to use LTSes for production things myself.  My personal server is usually running the latest release though.
[13:09] <jozefk> not really
[13:10] <MonkeyDust> xtriz1  apache is for server? are you using ubuntu-server? if yes, 12.04 would be better, because of longer support
[13:11] <xtriz1> Pici, ok :)
[13:11] <xtriz1> MonkeyDust, apache is a webserver right ?
[13:11] <carlfq> hm, okay. thanks for your help, jozefk!
[13:11] <xtriz1> MonkeyDust, i am not using ubuntu-server at the moment , using 13.04
[13:12] <jozefk> carlfq, no problem :) I got to go soon anyway
[13:12] <tomtenberge> hmm... seems the downloads of that site are offline

[13:24] <Gambaroni> the thing that worries me is how they could write inside another sites/users www-direcotry, since a site with just an html-file have also been code injected
[13:25] <dtcrshr> bufalo1973: well, not always, most of them are offtopic so people dont ask much :D
[13:27] <bufalo1973> Is there a way to use 2 screens, 2 KB and 2 mice with 1 computer (without going mad)?

[13:40] <gvandeweyer> I'm running ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a bunch of compute nodes, which I'm not yet willing to upgrade. However, a user package requires java 1.7 which is not in the lucid repositories.
[13:40] <hefest> bufalo1973: i dont know
[13:40] <gvandeweyer> Does LTS provide such updates as java 1.7 (openjdk), or should I install from other sources?
[13:40] <OerHeks> flipper88_fl, no. maybe freedos can help, i don't know, try the #hardware channel.
[13:41] <bufalo1973> hefest, me neither :D
[13:41] <hefest> bufalo1973: well, i see compiz process running
[13:41] <hefest> bufalo1973: so that must be unity 3d
[13:42] <bufalo1973> hefest, I mean "still active" -> "in development" ;)

[13:45] <ruben_> how can i edit an application shortcut in the Applications bar in the classic UI?
[13:45] <usr13> hefest: There is no way to just select 2d at login?

[13:47] <hefest> usr13: well, its htpc, i dont have access to it via x2go before login. thats why autologin is important
[13:48] <usr13> hefest: I don't use unity, (not sure why I even entered the conviersation), but not sure when compiz runs or when it doesn't.  (I use xfce, so...).
[13:49] <usr13> hefest: I just think all that eye-candy stuff is not needed, (for me) and not effecient.  But not sure about compiz, when it runs and when it doesn't.  It is not in the list of services, is it?
[13:50] <usr13> Oh, he's gone....

[13:51] <Seven_Six_Two> usr13, thanks nonetheless.
[13:51] <ladylee> help plz :(
[13:54] <usr13> ladylee: You had mageia installed before? So what makes you think it is not totally removed? (Do you see an option for it in the grub screen?)
[13:54] <usr13> ladylee: Is your PC booting to Ubuntu?
[13:55] <ladylee> no
[13:56] <ladylee> the thing is
[13:56] <usr13> ladylee: Is the boot loader the same as before?
[13:56] <ladylee> the installation doesnt boot from the HARDDISK
[13:56] <ladylee> after i installed ubuntu
[13:56] <ladylee> it should boot from the harddisk
[13:56] <ladylee> shouldnt it?
[13:56] <ladylee> but its not booting from there
[13:56] <FloodBot1> ladylee: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:56] <usr13> ladylee: Is it trying to boot from USB?
[13:56] <ladylee> its showing a UEFI path
[13:56] <ladylee> yes
[13:57] <ladylee> UEFI BOOT ubuntu path something written when i go to f12 boot options
[13:57] <usr13> ladylee: Then you have installed grub to MBR of USB by mistake?
[13:57] <ladylee> i have to click the uefi booth path ubuntu to get on there
[13:57] <ladylee> i have no idea but i want to start from the scratch
[13:57] <ladylee> im so confused rite now :(
[13:57] <baja> com
[13:57] <ladylee> mageia did the deed though.
[13:58] <usr13> !grub2 | ladylee
[13:58] <ladylee> right now i used gparted on the same USB that i used to convert to ext 2 extension
[13:58] <jephb> hi, i am trying to configure my local samba sharing server, i am little confused about user settings.actually when they talk about user settings are they reffering to local users in created directly in server or they are reffering to users in window client who will be using this server?
[13:58] <ladylee> to install ubuntu on it as a live cd
[13:58] <ladylee> and install all over again
[14:00] <jony_easyrider> how can I prevent Ubuntu to wait for my action after a power loss for check the filesystem?
[14:01] <compdoc> jephb, it seems to work better if you create the same users and passwords as those who will log in
[14:01] <jony_easyrider> I use that PC as a remote desktop so it hasn't a monitor or a keyboard
[14:01] <usr13> jephb: It's actually both, but the windows user has to have login credentials unless you do away with authentication.
[14:03] <jephb> so my problem is, when i create the same users how will they log in the system with graphical interface from remote computer with they credentials ?
[14:04] <jephb> i only know how to login using command line using ssh protocal but i don't how the user who is not familial with command line will do?
[14:05] <usr13> jephb: You'll be prompted for login.
[14:06] <jephb> ok
[14:06] <usr13> jephb: When you click on the share, a window will come up and you'll have the opportunity to supply login credentials.
[14:06] <jephb> ok
[14:08] <usr13> jephb: guest ok = yes   #In the config gives access without password. I *think*....
[14:09] <usr13> jephb: guest ok = no   #Causes share to require password.  I *think*...
[14:09] <usr13> no is default
[14:11] <haopeng5566> hello
[14:12] <usr13> security = user  vs  security = share
[14:20] <usr13> I hope jephb comes back, I was all wrong.....
[14:22] <helmut_> hi
[14:30] <vl4kn0> Hi, I'm trying to install Ubuntu 13.04 alongside Windows7, but when I open up disk management, it complains about the disk containing GPT table and does not recognize by partition. Is there any way to fix this?
[14:31] <liquidstone> please answer my question: http://askubuntu.com/questions/340630/problem-resolving-websites
[14:34] <Kristof_D> I've just installed 12.04 and although flash is preinstalled in firefox, it doesn't seem te be working (empty black box instead of youtube video). What would be the easiest way to fix this?
[14:35] <jhutchins> vl4kn0: I'm not familiar with the installer, but parted (gparted) can manage GPT disks; you could pre-partition it then do a manual install.
[14:35] <hero100> Kristof_D, install chrome :)
[14:35] <lgc> Hi, is there a partition repair tool in the live CD?
[14:35] <OerHeks> Kristof_D, flash is not preinstalled in flash, only in chrome. install ubuntu-restricted-extras for flash, java and other web plugins
[14:35] <OerHeks> err Kristof_D, flash is not preinstalled in firefox
[14:36] <Kristof_D> OerHeks, hero100, thanks I'll give both a try
[14:38] <vl4kn0> jhutchins: gparted isn't much help since it doesn't recognize the parition table.
[14:39] <OerHeks> lgc, you can install any tool in a live environment, like testdisk
[14:40] <lgc> OerHeks: what do you mean by install? Can I install anything in the live CD ?
[14:41] <Kristof_D> lgc, yes you can
[14:41] <OerHeks> lgc, sure, but it stays in ram, and will be lost when you reboot
[14:42] <OerHeks> lgc, else use the gparted live cd, which has testdisk included
[14:42] <lgc> Oh, I see, Kristof_D, OerHeks. So what is the right tool to try and repair a partition that will not boot linux? (I reinstalled Windows in /dev/sda1).
[14:43] <OerHeks> lgc, depends, what is the problem exactly?
[14:44] <OerHeks> lgc maybe alll you need is to re-install the ubuntu grub2 bootloader
[14:44] <Extreminador> guys is there any problem with the registering thing in ubuntu ?
[14:44] <Extreminador> i was not able to register my self
[14:45] <lgc> OerHeks: I reinstalled Windows and lost access to Ubuntu. How can I reinstall grub2 if I can't boot to Ubuntu?
[14:46] <Pici> Extreminador: what 'registering thing'?
[14:47] <Extreminador> Pici  Sorry, something just went wrong in Ubuntu One.
[14:47] <Extreminador> We’ve recorded what happened, and we’ll fix it as soon as possible. Apologies for the inconvenience.
[14:47] <Extreminador> after this i have a error id... if you need
[14:47] <Pici> Extreminador: You may want to try asking in #ubuntuone
[14:47] <Extreminador> i was on the registered page at https://login.ubuntu.com/+new_account
[14:47] <Kristof_D> lgc, no panic, reinstalling windows overwrote your MBR. Reinstalling grub from the live cd will fix it just fine
[14:47] <Extreminador> ahh thanks Pici
[14:47] <Kristof_D> lgc, just a sec, I'll have to look up how to do that :)
[14:48] <lgc> OK, Kristof_D, thanks.
[14:48] <OerHeks> lgc maybe this page is any help >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows // https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing

[15:20] <linuxuz3r> press command button and type additional drivers
[15:21] <linuxuz3r> you should see a hardware icon
[15:21] <macbook> empty there
[15:21] <macbook> empty

[15:22] <Tectu> is anyone in here running a GTX660 successfully?
[15:22] <Tectu> I just installed the latest media and it fails at reboot about the graphic mode
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> Tectu: tried:  sudo nvidia-xconfig
[15:23] <alberto> Hi
[15:23] <linuxuz3r> macbook ill find you a good tutorial on how to install ubuntu on a mac
[15:23] <macbook> Tectu: nvidia-xconfig
[15:23] <Tectu> ActionParsnip, macbook, is that a GUI tool or some console one? because currently I just have the terminal
[15:23] <macbook> linuxuz3r: i can bott it, but i have no clue how to connect to the internet
[15:24] <macbook> Tectu: terminal
[15:24] <alberto> Tectu your GTX660 is for desktop?
[15:24] <Tectu> macbook, I don't even have that installed.
[15:24] <macbook> run sudo nvidia-xconfig
[15:24] <Tectu> alberto, yes, an EVGA
[15:24] <macbook> install it?
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> Tectu: its a terminal one.
[15:24] <Tectu> should I install nvidia-xconfig or is that part of some other package?
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> Tectu: does your CPU have an ivybridge gpu in as well?
[15:25] <Tectu> ActionParsnip, yes
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> Tectu: as in, a switchable gpu
[15:25] <macbook> Tectu: you can use apt-search for that
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> Tectu: did you install bumblebee
[15:25] <macbook> i think it's a own package
[15:25] <macbook> but.. i dont know
[15:25] <macbook> linuxuz3r
[15:25] <Tectu> ActionParsnip, not that I know of. I just installed the latest ubuntu 13.06 and made the updates. No manual stuff so far
[15:25] <alberto> when you boot your OS it load the low graphic mode? If it yes you can restore the default configuration and reboot...
[15:25] <lgc> OerHeks: when I do 'sudo grub-install /dev/sda3' from the live CD it says "cannot find a device for /boot/grub (is /dev/mounted?)".
[15:26] <explodes> This virtualbox image isn't letting me ping google.com, but it can ping, say, 8.8.8.8
[15:26] <Tectu> alberto, I have to check on that. A dialog pops up telling me that it had problems and that it will try to boot in low graphics mode. Then comes some list where I can choose different settings. Then I take the first (Which is low graphics mode) but it falls back into the shell, no x at all
[15:26] <explodes> So, I added "dns-nameservers 8.8.4.4 8.8.8.8" to each interface in /etc/network/interfaces file
[15:27] <Tectu> alberto, ActionParsnip... fun fact: when I reboot again, it boots correctly.
[15:27] <Tectu> not sure if I am in low graphics mode now
[15:27] <lgc> Kristof_D: are you there?
[15:27] <Samul> hi all
[15:27] <Samul> I've a serious problem: I was installing ubuntu on a PC where already was windows 7
[15:28] <alberto> Can you try to reboot the OS and boot the recovery mode from the GRUB
[15:28] <Samul> but when I put the live cd
[15:28] <Kristof_D> lgc, yes?
[15:28] <Samul> the option is install ubuntu inside of windows 7 instead of install ubuntu at side of windows 7
[15:28] <Samul> if I select this option, computer restarts and nothing happens
[15:28] <Tectu> alberto, how can I find out if it works correctly now or if I am in some sort of low graphics mode?
[15:28] <baphomet1> Hello all!  does anyone know of a sata card, like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816124064, that will work for sure in Ubuntu?  The card I linked says it will work in linux but it didn't work in Ubuntu.  I am using 12.04.3
[15:28] <Samul> can someone help me?
[15:28] <baphomet1> Samul, with what?
[15:28] <lgc> Kristof_D: when I do 'sudo grub-install /dev/sda3' from the live CD it says "cannot find a device for /boot/grub (is /dev/mounted?)".
[15:29] <Samul> baphomet1: ?
[15:29] <baphomet1> Samul, you asked if someone could help you, I asked you with what?
[15:29] <baphomet1> Samul, ask your question.
[15:29] <Samul> I already asked it!
[15:29] <baphomet1> Samul, I may not be able to help you, but someone can
[15:30] <Samul> I already asked my question
[15:30] <baphomet1> Samul, I didn't see it.  could you repeat it please?
[15:30] <Samul> I was installing ubuntu in a PC where already is windows 7
[15:30] <Samul> but the option was install ubuntu inside windows 7
[15:30] <Tectu> ActionParsnip, I'm not an ubuntu user - I am just installing this for a friend. How does ubuntu handle GPU drivers? did it already install the correct proprietary driver for nvidia or do I have to install it manually with   apt-get install nvidia?
[15:31] <baphomet1> do you mean "alongside"?
[15:31] <Samul> instead of install ubuntu keeping windows 7
[15:31] <alberto> I don't know cause when my laptop's nvidia graphic card not works correctly i reboot into low graphics mode and restore the configuration and when reboot it return to works properly
[15:31] <Samul> if I select that option, computer restarts
[15:31] <baphomet1> it sounds like it is trying to use WUBI.  which version of Ubuntu?
[15:32] <Kristof_D> lgc, not sure. You could try manually mounting the filesystem first. From inside the livecd, try and look at some files in your ubuntu partition. That should mount it. Otherwise try the graphical repair tool
[15:32] <ashoksahoo> hello, I have an embeded with a thermal printer, having some issues while installing the drivers

[15:33] <lrojas> can somebody help?
[15:33] <baphomet1> Samul, which version of ubuntu? it sounds like it is trying to use WUBI, but I don't know why it would.  It should only prompt you for that if you are in windows and pop the live CD in.  Alternatively, you could select 'something else' and set up the partitions manually
[15:33] <lrojas> i just ran throught the setup again ( after uninstalling the tools ), when i get to the part where the installer  runs /usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl, i get the error: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/075ea5f9db577cdfc9db
[15:33] <ashoksahoo> error is no rules to -lcupsimage
[15:33] <Samul> baphomet1: both 13.04 and 12.04 LTS
[15:34] <baphomet1> Samul, hold on.  let me grab a link for you
[15:34] <alberto> lrojas can i help you"
[15:34] <alberto> ?
[15:34] <skrite> hey all
[15:34] <alberto> Hy skrite

[15:35] <baphomet1> http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2012/05/17/how-to-dual-boot-ubuntu-12-04-and-windows-7/ follow those. you can change the steps as necessary.  I prefer grub to BCD.
[15:35] <Samul> the only option I have is install ubuntu inside windows 7
[15:35] <Samul> instead of keeping windows 7
[15:35] <Samul> and if I select it, computer restarts
[15:35] <Samul> nothing happens, then
[15:35] <baphomet1> Hello all!  does anyone know of a sata card, like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816124064, that will work for sure in Ubuntu?  The card I linked says it will work in linux but it didn't work in Ubuntu.  I am using 12.04.3

[15:36] <alberto> Are you using the VMWare Player?
[15:37] <lrojas> alberto: no, i am using fusion
[15:37] <sab3r> I reinstalled GRUB from live cd because my dual-boot fucked it up. But I forgot to make the config so I have a text-only bash or something here atm.. any ideas how I can 1) boot my linux from bash or 2) get the graphical interface?
[15:37] <baphomet1> Samul, follow that info.  I have used it more than once and it works fine
[15:37] <baphomet1> that will certainly get it working
[15:38] <alberto> Can you wait a minute please?
[15:38] <lrojas> alberto: sure
[15:38] <alberto> Have you a mac?
[15:38] <alberto> Cause fusion is for Mac
[15:38] <Samul> wait

[15:47] <gabriel-shatana> all'avvio si pianta dicendo Reboot or insert proper media device
[15:47] <lrojas> i was missing this step: sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-3.8.0-29-generic/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h /usr/src/linux-headers-3.8.0-29-generic/include/linux/version.h
[15:47] <klrr_> version 12.04 of ubuntu use a old version of GHC, i need later version due to a bug in GHC which makes my code not compileable, i really need help with this, should i do "apt-get purge haskell-platform && apt-get autoremove" and then install 13.04's version of haskell-platform? will that break anything?
[15:47] <alberto> you can try to insert the directory of the kernel /boot
[15:48] <lrojas> alberto: thanks, is already fixed

[15:51] <Jishaxe> Hi there. I'm trying to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 8 which was preinstalled on my laptop.
[15:51] <Jishaxe> I'm following these instructions: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/tired-of-windows-8-how-to-dual-boot-windows-ubuntu/ and http://apcmag.com/how-to-dual-boot-windows-8-and-linux.htm
[15:52] <Jishaxe> However, when I boot to the USB and try to install it, the Ubuntu installer doesn't show any partitions whatsoever.
[15:52] <Jishaxe> It's just empty.
[15:52] <Jishaxe> When I try to press Add, or any other button, the program crashes.
[15:52] <Jishaxe> Does anyone have any clue?
[15:54] <usr13> Jishaxe: Not so sure about EasyBCD  Maybe it works but don't think anyone here will know much about it.  You can try but, I would suggest just grub.
[15:54] <usr13> !grub2 | Jishaxe
[15:54] <usr13> ok, gotta go
[15:54] <gabriel-shatana> someone can check whats it's wrong here? http://paste.ubuntu.com/6059202/
[15:54] <Jishaxe> usr13: I'd optimally like to use Windows' bootloader but the problem is I haven't even got that far.
[15:55] <Jishaxe> usr13: The Ubuntu installer itself crashes. It won't show any partitions.
[15:59] <Jishaxe> I seem to be getting this problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/302215/installing-ubuntu-does-not-recognize-partition-and-crashes
[15:59] <Jishaxe> I haven't created any partitions myself. I haven't even touched them.
[16:01] <Jishaxe> I'm going to try Wubi.
[16:01] <cookiemon5ter> is there a place to get an ubuntu torrent download
[16:02] <tmmunq> from the ubuntu downloads page
[16:02] <bazhang> !torrents | cookiemon5ter
[16:03] <cookiemon5ter> bazhang: i found what i was looking for here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads
[16:03] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, why not try creating them yourself?
[16:04] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: I don't feel comfortable at this point. I haven't used Linux/touched anything to do with partitions in years
[16:04] <Jishaxe> I'm looking for alternative solutions right now. Apparently I can't use Wubi with my stock Windows 8 laptop
[16:08] <BluesKaj> Jishaxe, wubi is no longer supported with the newer ubuntu releases
[16:08] <awallin> hi all, is there a PPA with a preempt-rt kernel for raring (13.04) ?
[16:08] <bazhang> awallin, do a ppa search at launchpad
[16:08] <Nach0z> wait there's no more wubi?
[16:08] <Nach0z> whaaaaaat
[16:09] <equus> Jishaxe,  have you considered using a virtual machine for Linux
[16:09] <BluesKaj> !wubi
[16:09] <Jishaxe> So no-one has a clue why the installer is not showing anything and crashes when I try to continue on stock Windows 8 laptop, Ubuntu 13.04?
[16:09] <awallin> bazhang: right... just wondering if there is a known-good PPA everyone who wants preempt-rt uses
[16:10] <Jishaxe> equus: I suppose I could, but it's irritating that I'd have to.
[16:10] <BluesKaj> !uefi |Jishaxe
[16:10] <bazhang> awallin, best to just search, PPA are not supported and polling the channel is not the way to go
[16:11] <Jishaxe> BluesKaj: I understand that I may have UEFI but I haven't even gotten to the stage where I would make that decision. The _installer_ _crashes_
[16:12] <yigal> Jishaxe: unfortunately some graphics cards don't work well with Ubuntu
[16:12] <yigal> Jishaxe: likely this is the issue
[16:12] <BluesKaj> Jishaxe, check your bios/uefi and install in uefi mode
[16:12] <yigal> Jishaxe: what graphics card are you using, it would be good to rule this out
[16:12] <Jishaxe> yigal: The display is fine, unless you mean that could be the cause of the installer crashing
[16:12] <yigal> Jishaxe: yes
[16:13] <apg> Guys, is there anybody notice deleting behaviour in Miro?
[16:13] <yigal> apg: what is Miro deleting?
[16:13] <yigal> apg: that's worrisome
[16:13] <apg> My old video podcast
[16:13] <Jishaxe> yigal: Nvidia GT 430m
[16:13] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, hang on
[16:14] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, you are dual booting with windows 8?
[16:14] <uhpnou> this simple upstart job (http://pastebin.com/VchNK106) prevents lightdm to shutdown or restart my notebook, any idea why?
[16:14] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: I'm attempting to.
[16:14] <uhpnou> hello everybody
[16:14] <apg> I have set so that no old video should be expire after certain amount of time
[16:14] <yigal> Jishaxe: which version of Ubuntu are you trying to install?
[16:14] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, ok hang on
[16:15] <Jishaxe> yigal: 13.04
[16:15] <apg> But it still deletes my old videos
[16:15] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, follow this
[16:15] <baphomet1> http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2013/03/12/dual-boot-windows-8-and-ubuntu-12-04-in-uefi-mode/
[16:15] <Jishaxe> BluesKaj: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI Can you point me to where the instructions are to install in "UEFI" mode?
[16:15] <baphomet1> the procedure is the same
[16:15] <lgc> Kristof_D: Hey, it worked!
[16:15] <__marco> Hello, how can I build a dependency tree of a packages? I need to install twisted 12.0.0 in ubuntu 12.04 and all its dependencies
[16:16] <yigal> Jishaxe: the idea, in general with installers that don't work automatically is to throw the right grub parameters there way to allow the boot to go through
[16:16] <Pici> __marco: are you building twisted from source?
[16:16] <__marco> Pici: no
[16:16] <yigal> Jishaxe: s/there/their excuse me
[16:16] <apg> yigal: my old podcast videos
[16:16] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: At a skim, this seems to be identical to the instructions I was following previously, where the installer doesn't detect any partitions whatsoever and then crashes. But I will read it carefully
[16:17] <linuxuz3r> !seen macbook
[16:17] <linuxuz3r> ~seen macbook
[16:17] <__marco> Pici: I want to build a minimalistic repository with twisted 12.0.0 and its dependencies
[16:17] <Pici> linuxuz3r: there are no seen commands.
[16:17] <yigal> Jishaxe: what is the file system partitioned as NTFS?
[16:17] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, give it a shot.  I have installed along side windows 8 and it was strange (had to use the bios boot menu to get to the ubuntu partition) but it worked.
[16:17] <__marco> Pici: taken from official repostories
[16:18] <yigal> apg: do you know the location of where the material was?
[16:18] <yigal> apg: and it's no longer there?
[16:18] <Jishaxe> yigal: I'm not sure. I'm going to read through this article before continuing
[16:18] <Pici> __marco: apt-rdepends will walk the package dependencies recursively and give you a list.
[16:19] <apg> yigal: Yep
[16:19] <__marco> Pici: thanks, exactly what I needed
[16:20] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: I'm stuck at step B.
[16:20] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: The actual Ubuntu installer that you are given on the live CD fails to list any partitions and crashes
[16:21] <Jishaxe> on second thoughts, maybe I should use a virtual machine instead of messing around with this
[16:21] <shri> how to install downloaded setups in ubuntu??
[16:21] <baphomet1> what is step b?
[16:21] <baphomet1> creating the partitions?
[16:22] <Extreminador> is there any default image editor in ubuntu ?
[16:22] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: "B. Install Ubuntu 12.10 alongside Windows 8. "
[16:22] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: this is the screen I should get: http://www.linuxbsdos.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/UbuntuEFI5-600x407.png
[16:23] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, and what are you actually getting?
[16:23] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: Instead, there are no partitions listed and the installer crashes
[16:23] <shri> can anyone help me?
[16:23] <Jishaxe> crashes when i try to press Add or similar
[16:23] <baphomet1> does it throw an error?
[16:23] <baphomet1> shri, what's going on?
[16:24] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: From memory, it says there was an internal error and offers me the chance to send it. There is no details or anything to indicate extra information
[16:24] <shri> baphomet1, : i want to install eclipse
[16:24] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, if you click send it will actually bring you to a screen that will show you the problem.  try it and let us know the error
[16:25] <baphomet1> shri, ok.  what happens if you try?
[16:25] <Jishaxe> baphomet1: Okay, I must have missed that. I'll be back in a mo
[16:25] <baphomet1> Jishaxe, no worries.
[16:25] <shri> baphomet1, : i have downloaded setup and now i don't know how to install it   ..?
[16:26] <tarlll> hi, need some help, please! have a question about compiling linux/android kernel, where should i ask? sorry, iam newbie here
[16:26] <Pici> tarlll: #android
[16:26] <tarlll> thanks
[16:26] <POo_mec87> if it's tar first extract it and then make it excutable shri
[16:31] <shri> POo_mec87, thanks
[16:33] <POo_mec87> shri installed it???
[16:36] <xJamie> hello, does anyone know why my fresh ubuntu installion is a blank screen?
[16:37] <POo_mec87> maybe graphic drivers
[16:37] <daftykins> xJamie: do you have nvidia graphics?
[16:37] <daftykins> try...
[16:37] <daftykins> !nomodeset
[16:37] <xJamie> No. This is an amd apu.
[16:38] <xJamie> The installation is on a vmware.
[16:38] <xJamie> I downloaded and installed the ubuntu mini and the lxde and when I login, the screen is blank.
[16:39] <POo_mec87> why install just load it
[16:39] <GeorgeTorwell> How come my software updater hasn't given me any updates in over 2 weeks? Every time I run it it says everything is up to date, and I dont even see it runnning automatically anymore
[16:39] <GeorgeTorwell> Did the NSA hack my computer?
[16:40] <daftykins> ¬_¬
[16:40] <daftykins> GeorgeTorwell: all the NSA talk is so last month :(
[16:40] <POo_mec87> lol
[16:40] <clue_h> yes
[16:40] <MonkeyDust> time for some new paranoia
[16:41] <GeorgeTorwell> then explain this
[16:41] <GeorgeTorwell> absolutely no updates
[16:41] <GeorgeTorwell> and it wont even run by itself
[16:41] <GeorgeTorwell> right after I was prompted to make mysteriosu updates to my login, password, and some other system utilities
[16:41] <xJamie> Anyone know what could be wrong, why i have a blank screen after login?
[16:41] <GeorgeTorwell> did everyone else get those too?
[16:41] <MonkeyDust> GeorgeTorwell  try to keep it in one line
[16:42] <clue_h> xJamie, are you using unity with your ubuntu install
[16:42] <xJamie> The de lxde.
[16:42] <POo_mec87> xJamie, I didn't use vmware, I used virtualbox, in vbox u just create a virtual machine and then mount your OS image on it!
[16:43] <njalk> GeorgeTorwell, same issue here
[16:43] <xJamie> No, I used vmware to mount the ubuntu mini and used the desktop lxde. When I login, blue blank creen.
[16:43] <GeorgeTorwell> oh good
[16:43] <GeorgeTorwell> unless the NSA hacked us both, I feel somewhat better
[16:44] <njalk> GeorgeTorwell, but I haven't had time to investigate too much, just tried to switch sources, didn't help
[16:44] <daftykins> GeorgeTorwell: i would recommend running a CLI update
[16:45] <POo_mec87> xJamie , I guess vmware must have a config setup for your OS like VBOX
[16:45] <xJamie> Yeah.
[16:45] <POo_mec87> ok u choosed your OS setting?!
[16:46] <GeorgeTorwell> CLI?
[16:46] <daftykins> command line
[16:47] <daftykins> GeorgeTorwell: so run a terminal and type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[16:47] <xJamie> The os settings have been chosen. Everything installs fine. When I login, the lxde just shows a blank creen.
[16:48] <POo_mec87> sry I can't find what's the problem :
[16:48] <xJamie> Neither can I.
[16:48] <Arhi> Hello. Can I ask question about Kubuntu? :P
[16:48] <POo_mec87> try other OS
[16:49] <Arhi> but i like Kubuntu, but have problem with installing 13.04 :|
[16:50] <POo_mec87> try other OS,  xJamie, maybe it's a your image problem, or try another desktop
[16:50] <xJamie> I don't have another desktop connected to try and what other distro can i use which is blank?
[16:50] <MonkeyDust> xJamie  maybe it's a display setting in vmware
[16:51] <xJamie> Why would they be fine up until login?
[16:51] <GeorgeTorwell> daftykins: Calculating upgrade... Done
[16:51] <GeorgeTorwell> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[16:51] <POo_mec87> xJamie, no I mean mount another os like xubuntu, maybe it work
[16:51] <Arhi> huh... so i go try with other installer ;/
[16:51] <MonkeyDust> xJamie  ask again, after you tried changing some display setting
[16:51] <Arhi> but this same OS
[16:52] <GeorgeTorwell> how is that possible? The last version of Ubuntu I used installed updates every day like clockwork
[16:52] <xJamie> There is nothing that I can change.
[16:52] <daftykins> GeorgeTorwell: what version are you using?
[16:53] <njalk> GeorgeTorwell, doesn't work with cli update here either. I've been running 13.04 since it got out
[16:53] <njalk> with updates several times a day
[16:53] <GeorgeTorwell> me too
[16:53] <MonkeyDust> GeorgeTorwell  what was your initial question/issue?
[16:53] <GeorgeTorwell> 13.04
[16:53] <GeorgeTorwell> that software updater is not finding any updates ever
[16:53] <GeorgeTorwell> since at least 2 weeks
[16:54] <GeorgeTorwell> and I find that unusual
[16:55] <Extreminador> guys when i open a software the 2Avant Window Navigator" icons desapear
[16:55] <Extreminador> any ideia hy ?
[16:55] <MonkeyDust> GeorgeTorwell  either your system is up to date, or your sources have been disabled, chack that with system settings > software and updates
[16:55] <Extreminador> i think it has something to do with the icon size ... becasue the icons were choice by me...
[16:55] <XXX> hi
[16:55] <POo_mec87> hi
[16:55] <GeorgeTorwell> no sources have been disabled (intentionally)
[16:56] <XXX> my macbook freezes after grub have been loaded
[16:56] <GeorgeTorwell> could it be the NSA installed a fake software updater and trojaned my system?
[16:56] <njalk> MonkeyDust, i have the same issue, and nothing has been disabled and it's been about 2 weeks since the last time i had an update
[16:56] <POo_mec87> lol, noooooooooooooooooooo

[17:33] <shadej> imark:ok powerman
[17:33] <shadej> it is not installed by default
[17:33] <Extreminador> guys to remove a rep i need only o remove the file of that rep from /etc/apt/sources.list.d right ?

[17:38] <sab3r> I've reinstalled grub like 5 times now and once with the boot-repair and I still get the minimal BASH-like grub screen.. Is there any magic wizard who has somekind of magic tricks up in the sleeve to fix this problem OR a command to get the linux booted
[17:40] <ChogyDan> sab3r: did you save the log from the bootrepair?
[17:41] <shadej> imark: I added pm to the sudoers file so that it will not require root password but not working
[17:42] <imark> shadej: are you still running it with sudo? just minus the password?
[17:43] <shadej> yeah this way sudo pm-suspend
[17:43] <shadej> it waits to accept password
[17:44] <imark> but it works when you use the password that would mean you havent correctly set it up in the sudoers file
[17:44] <shadej> imark: yeah,
[17:47] <shadej> imark: what could be the possible error
[17:48] <shadej> I have edited sudoers file before this time and it was working
[17:48] <ElTimo> Anyone have any luck with ClearPass?
[17:48] <imark> i've never used the sudoers function but i think you have to add a line something like the following
[17:48] <iceroot_> !anyone | ElTimo
[17:49] <ElTimo> iceroot_: That was my question. ClearPass isn't working for me and I wanted to know if anyone has had any success using it.
[17:49] <ElTimo> No need to be a dick.
[17:49] <iceroot_> !details | ElTimo
[17:49] <iceroot_> ElTimo: anyone-questions are just useless
[17:50] <ElTimo> Ok, then let me put it like this
[17:50] <ElTimo> Is there any way to get Clearpass to skip the antivirus check it forces on each connection?
[17:51] <BluesKaj> !virus
[17:51] <ElTimo> BluesKaj: Did you even read the question?
[17:53] <iceroot_> ElTimo: do you have a link for this clearpass?
[17:53] <iceroot_> ElTimo: never heard of it
[17:53] <sab3r> ChogyDan: nope *blushes*
[17:53] <ElTimo> iceroot_: http://www.arubanetworks.com/pdf/products/DS_ClearPass_OnGuard.pdf
[17:53] <sab3r> I got the linux booted from the grub and now I am in some ubuntu built-in shell
[17:53] <iceroot_> ElTimo: thx
[17:53] <ChogyDan> sab3r: shucks, it has A LOT of information
[17:53] <BluesKaj> just got here ElTimo , so when i see someons asking abouit viruses , it's natural to invoke the bot
[17:54] <sab3r> ChogyDan: Yes I know, prolly have to take it the next time..
[17:54] <ElTimo> BluesKaj: Ah ok. I was specifically asking how to trick a program into thinking that I do have antivirus.
[17:54] <iceroot_> ElTimo: as it seems ubuntu is not official supported
[17:55] <iceroot_> ElTimo: so what is the exact error message you got?
[17:55] <ElTimo> It won't run the Java applet.
[17:55] <ElTimo> I'm not at school right now, though. Wouldn't be online if I was.
[17:55] <iceroot_> ElTimo: you are using oracle java? or openjdk?
[17:56] <ElTimo> iceroot_: OpenJDK
[17:56] <ElTimo> 7, specifically.
[17:56] <iceroot_> ElTimo: ever tried oracle java? i was facing similar issue with our HP network connector, which is only usable with oracle java and not openjdk
[17:56] <phantomfav> This is my question: i have installed nautilus in xubuntu, the file manager works great, but the desktop manager doesn't starts ("nautilus -n") even if i have closed the process xfdesktop in the session, anyone know how to force start nautilus for the desktop?
[17:57] <ElTimo> iceroot_: Huh. Didn't think of that. I'll give it a shot next time I have class.
[17:57] <ElTimo> Thanks.
[17:57] <iceroot_> ElTimo: its sad that still oracle java is needed for some stuff :(
[17:57] <ElTimo> I know. I wish Oracle would just drop off the face of the earth.
[17:59] <ChogyDan> phantomfav: why do you want nautilus?
[17:59] <Guest51571> network manager wont change my mtu value how to change it manually
[18:00] <phantomfav> ChogyDan: because i prefer it
[18:00] <ChogyDan> Guest51571: I can change it in my network manager (though Im running the beta)
[18:00] <phantomfav> the xfdesktop process really sucks
[18:00] <Guest51571> i can also but it wont change in ifconfig
[18:00] <ChogyDan> Guest51571: edit, preferences, Wi-Fi
[18:01] <sab3r> If I can get to my initramfs but not to my OS itself.. doest that mean that there is something broken or is there a way to get to the OS?
[18:03] <dbugger> Hey guys. The sounds in my Ubuntu has disappeared! Even though when the log screen appears, I hear the drum sound, when I go to youtube, Spotify or anything else I head nothing
[18:03] <dbugger> can someone pleae help me?
[18:03] <ChogyDan> Guest51571: mmm, maybe file a bug
[18:06] <Slart> dbugger: have you tried running alsamixer in a terminal and messing around with the settings there?
[18:06] <Shakaz> !legacy
[18:06] <Shakaz> !gpt
[18:06] <Shakaz> !uefi
[18:07] <dbugger> Slart, Yes I have. no luck neither
[18:08] <darkangel> Hey will there be a Newer Version of Wine Coming out any time soon?
[18:08] <Slart> dbugger: if you start something that should make noise and then open up the pulseaudio volume control, do you see the program specific volume sliders?
[18:09] <Slart> darkangel: ask in ##winehq , that's the official wine support channel
[18:09] <darkangel> ok thx
[18:09] <dbugger> When zou say the "pulseaudio volume control", you mean the audio icon ny the clock?
[18:10] <Slart> dbugger: hmm.. trying to remember what the default ubuntu looks like.. try opening a terminal and running "pavucontrol"
[18:10] <dbugger> Slart, I dont have it installed. Should I?
[18:10] <delinquentme> join #physics
[18:10] <delinquentme> woops!
[18:11] <phantomfav> This is my question: i have installed nautilus in xubuntu, the file manager works great, but the desktop manager doesn't starts ("nautilus -n") even if i have closed the process xfdesktop in the session, anyone know how to force start nautilus for the desktop?
[18:11] <Slart> dbugger: I don't think it's required but I find it useful
[18:11] <darkangel> ##winehq is dead No 1s there
[18:11] <Slart> dbugger: you can install it by running "sudo apt-get install pavucontrol"
[18:11] <dbugger> ok, installed
[18:11] <Slart> darkangel: sorry.. try #winehq
[18:11] <Slart> dbugger: ok, try running it
[18:12] <Slart> dbugger: you should get a window that looks kind of like this http://community.linuxmint.com/img/screenshots/pavucontrol.png
[18:12] <dbugger> Slart, I do see a bar that is moving constantly, from the audio signal
[18:12] <darkangel> thx alot
[18:12] <Slart> darkangel: you're welcome
[18:13] <Slart> dbugger: ok, so that means that the sound is playing and that pulseaudio sees the source playing.. a good first start
[18:13] <Slart> dbugger: do you have more than one audio device? there should be a drop down menu thing where you can select what device to use for a certain audio stream
[18:14] <Slart> dbugger: oh.. and I hate to ask this.. but you have checked that the cables are connected, speakers are powered, hardware volume turned up and so on?
[18:15] <dbugger> Well, I did hear the drums plays before the login screen, so it makes sense to think that the wiring is not the problem
[18:15] <lee16> ubuntu has literally shut on me
[18:15] <Slart> dbugger: ah.. yes
[18:15] <lee16> i tried installing the grub
[18:15] <dbugger> Slart, I did tried all the devices in the list, and it doesnt help
[18:15] <lee16> but douche said UBUNTU has been blocked
[18:15] <dbugger> I also should mention that this happened right after my Ubuntu system froze down and I had to do a hard reboot
[18:16] <lee16> now its asking me to first install MDadm something
[18:16] <Slart> dbugger: check the "Output Devices" tab on the volume control.. are the volume sliders in the middle? not muted?
[18:17] <Slart> dbugger: you can also try switching the different modes on the output.. "analog output", "stereo output" and so on..
[18:17] <dbugger> Slart, all output devices are at 100%
[18:18] <lee16> how to get the grub2 back . i tried following the grub
[18:18] <zykotick9> dbugger: if you run "cat /proc/asound/cards" do you have more then 1 listed?  if so, is your desired card (that's not working with your browser) something other then card 0?
[18:18] <Slart> dbugger: and the configuration tab might have more settings you can play with.. if it works it should work right away, no need to restart the audio stream
[18:20] <ocooel> RDP to Windows SBS via remmina isn't working. How do I check that it's allowed in firewall or what else it might be..?
[18:20] <dbugger> Oh, that last fixed it
[18:20] <dbugger> thanks! :)
[18:20] <hydruid> ocooel: change the encryption to RDP
[18:21] <hydruid> ocooel: that usually helps
[18:21] <gassho> installing, connected to internet; after rebooting, no internet connection
[18:21] <gassho> using wireless
[18:21] <Slart> dbugger: tadaaa.. =)
[18:21] <dbugger> Thanks guys :)
[18:21] <dbugger> See you all later! :)
[18:21] <Slart> dbugger: you're welcome
[18:21] <A1Recon> I have some pdf files that i want to download with wget..... but the files I want to download are named "www.example.com/xyz_1_ABC.pdf" and i don't want to download the other pdf files(which are named "xyz_2_ABC.pdf") from the site. Now this "ABC" may be  a number or a character(they are in no specific order). What do i type in?
[18:22] <daftykins> A1Recon: what are you stealing en masse :(
[18:22] <A1Recon> daftykins: i am not stealing en masse'
[18:22] <ocooel> hydruid: protocol is set to RDP.
[18:22] <Slart> A1Recon: doesn't wget support some kind of regular expression?
[18:23] <hydruid> ocooel: highlight the server, click the pencil, advanced tab, set security to RDP
[18:24] <Slart> A1Recon: is wget required? or you can use something like curl instead?
[18:24] <A1Recon> Slart: I can download files if they are named numerically and by their type but this time I want the "PDFs" only and the file should have same suffix...
[18:25] <A1Recon> Slart: I thought wget was the de facto download manager for Linux
[18:25] <ocooel> hydruid: it still isn't working.
[18:25] <hydruid> ocooel: did you enable RDP on the windows server?
[18:25] <linuxearth> i don't know but why the pointer of my mouse (in the pc) sometimes changes positions or like wavering in small motion even when I have absolutely not touching it and seeing from a distant location, please do let me know about it, is my pc being compromised or i am safely browsing the internet...? pleae do let me know
[18:25] <hydruid> ocooel: are you getting a specific error?
[18:25] <linuxearth> i don't know but why the pointer of my mouse (in the pc) sometimes changes positions or like wavering in small motion even when I have absolutely not touching it and seeing from a distant location, please do let me know about it, is my pc being compromised or i am safely browsing the internet...? pleae do let me know
[18:26] <gassho> ut says wireless networks device not managed in the w=network menu ;s;
[18:26] <gassho> *it
[18:26] <hydruid> ocooel: on the windows server which option did you choose for RDP? Try the middle option intead of the bottom!
[18:26] <A1Recon> Slart: I am getting stuck at the filename.... that's all
[18:26] <err-or> linuxearth: do you use a mousepad? oder what kind of surface your mouse is on?
[18:26] <clue_h> linuxearth, it happens to me, i dont have a mouspad
[18:26] <clue_h> which is why
[18:27] <linuxearth> yes i am using
[18:27] <linuxearth> mousepad
[18:27] <linuxearth> a black type of mouse pad
[18:27] <Slart> A1Recon: mm.. it is commonly used.. the reason I was asking is because curl has these nice step counters for filenames..  curl http://www.letters.com/file[a-z:2].txt   is one example
[18:28] <linuxearth> err-or and clue_h: i don't know but i have a mouse pad, is my pc and net browsing safe?
[18:28] <ocooel> hydruid: Yes. The error is - Unable to connect to RDP server <server>. Does the Domain need to be filled in..?
[18:28] <clue_h> linuxearth, is it optical or a roller ball gig
[18:28] <hydruid> ocooel: can't help you if you don't answer all my questions. Is RDP enabled on the server, which RDP setting did you choose? Try just putting the IP to connect to it.
[18:29] <Slart> A1Recon: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1426522/bash-script-downloading-consecutive-numbered-files-with-wget this might be useful
[18:29] <A1Recon> Slart: I have used curl before I wasn't sure if i should use it now
[18:29] <linuxearth> clue_h: has the roller
[18:30] <Slart> A1Recon: it's your choice, it was just a suggestion.. is this running in some kind of bash script? can you use a bash loop to do the file fetching?
[18:30] <err-or> linuxearth: don't use stripey pads, or pads with pictures which have a huge color difference. your mouse will think its has walked a lot of miles :D
[18:30] <clue_h> linuxearth, and try different ports on your pc too
[18:30] <A1Recon> Slart: I am just learning up on wget... haven't used bash.
[18:31] <A1Recon> Slart: Thanks!!
[18:31] <clue_h> true, i have a paper back book as a mousepad and when it hits the bar code, it goes crazy haha
[18:31] <linuxearth> err-or: mouse pad is only black coloured simply no pictures on it at all.....clue_h: can i confirm that my pc is safe...i am having the mouse which is not usb based so insertion is only into the designated port which is round type with holes
[18:31] <Slart> A1Recon: hope you find something useful.. good luck!
[18:31] <ocooel> hydruid: That's what the yes is for :-P Just generic RDP, remote desktop protocol. Is that what you mean by rpd settings..?
[18:31] <guest_____> I have a hard drive storage question...
[18:32] <hydruid> ocooel: there are 2 options to enable RDP, one with security and one without....which did you select? can you ping the server?
[18:33] <err-or> linuxearth: your safe ;)
[18:33] <guest_____> I have a FAT32 partition of 466 GB allocated for Windows.  Will a Windows 7 install disk recognize this partition automatically?
[18:33] <JoshStrobl> Is there a community manager around I can speak to?
[18:33] <ocooel> I'll need to wait until I'm in the office to find out the IP and to check the rdp settings on SBS. But this worked with 12.04.2, which wasn't that long ago.
[18:34] <Nabucodonosor> hi peoples
[18:34] <Slart> JoshStrobl: if it's about the irc-channels you can always try #ubuntu-ops
[18:34] <JoshStrobl> it isn't about irc channels
[18:34] <Nabucodonosor> #hackers
[18:35] <Pici> JoshStrobl: If its an Ubuntu question then #ubuntu-community-team would be the right place to ask.
[18:35] <guest_____> I have a FAT32 partition of 466 GB allocated for Windows.  Will a Windows 7 install disk recognize this partition automatically?
[18:35] <Enemtee> anyone installing a linux-distro having problems with voiding warranty on their computers?
[18:35] <JoshStrobl> Pici: It isn't an Ubuntu question.
[18:35] <gassho> how can i manage wifi adapter
[18:35] <JoshStrobl> My question is strictly resolved by a CM
[18:35] <Pricey> JoshStrobl: What's the question?
[18:36] <JoshStrobl> Are you a CM?
[18:36] <OerHeks> guest_____, no, maybe yes, ask in #windows
[18:36] <Pricey> JoshStrobl: No, but if we knew the question we might be able to tell you who can answer it?
[18:36] <JoshStrobl> Then you can't help me.
[18:36] <JoshStrobl> Not being a jerk, just being honest. This really can only be resolved by a CM
[18:37] <Pricey> JoshStrobl: Where is your definition of "cm" taken from?
[18:37] <OerHeks> JoshStrobl, join #ubuntu-community-team #looks like it is the place to be for community related stuff
[18:37] <Enemtee> well, i'll fire off my question again, anyone having problems with voiding warranty when installing a linux-distro? i wonder, cause i'm interested in wiping windows on a computer with warranty and installing a linux-distro instead
[18:37] <Slart> JoshStrobl: this might help.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JonoBacon
[18:38] <Pricey> JoshStrobl: A few people here have given you their best guesses but if you want a better suggestion you need to give us more details.
[18:38] <A1Recon> Slart: They are in no particular order. I need the command for "xyz_1_ABC_2011.pdf". Here "ABC" can be anything a word or letter.
[18:38] <ocooel> hydruid: I'll need to wait until I'm in the office to find out the IP and to check the rdp settings on SBS. But this worked with 12.04.2, which wasn't that long ago.
[18:38] <Slart> A1Recon: are the files listed on some other web page or you're just blindly firing off download requests?
[18:39] <A1Recon> Slart: listed on the same webpage.
[18:39] <ChogyDan> Enemtee: I've heard of such issues, but I think you can just reinstall windows if you need tech support.  I've heard of folks calling tech support with a linux install, then getting rejected.  You can't really expect the tech supports to know about linux, so I think it is understandable
[18:40] <kingjames> any idea when the new GNOME core apps will be available as default in Ubuntu?
[18:40] <|ryan|> Enemtee: in no sane country would it affect your warranty
[18:40] <linuxearth> err-or: thanks but how do i confirm that i am safe...?
[18:40] <|ryan|> at least, from a legal point of view
[18:40] <Enemtee> ChogyDan: Yeah, that's been my thought. So I'll back up Win 7, and reinstall if i need to
[18:40] <linuxearth> how but?
[18:40] <|ryan|> Enemtee: I guess you're in sweden, you should be good.
[18:41] <linuxearth> and if one is not in sweden, he/she cannot be good
[18:41] <linuxearth> ?
[18:41] <Enemtee> hehe
[18:41] <Slart> A1Recon: so you want any file named xyz_1_<anything here>_2011.pdf and the files are listed on a webpage on the same domain, correct?
[18:41] <linuxearth> Enemtee: ;)-
[18:41] <A1Recon> Slart: Yup
[18:41] <linuxearth> err-or: thanks but how do i confirm that i am safe...?
[18:41] <|ryan|> linuxearth: I as long as one is in a first world country, they're probably good
[18:41] <|ryan|> s/I//
[18:41] <Guest61320> My Ubuntu VirtualBox VM asks for my encryption password on boot, takes the password, then gives me some weird screen saying Target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init.. no init found… then it says BusyBox v1.20.2 and gives a prompt that says initramfs...
[18:41] <wilee-nilee> Enemtee, Not a ubuntu support question, ask the manufacturer.
[18:42] <linuxearth> every place is good, if the person is good, remember that: from a black coloured spects, you would see blackish only...!!
[18:42] <linuxearth> but its okay, good to know that you are good |ryan|
[18:43] <linuxearth> err-or: thanks but how do i confirm that i am safe...?
[18:43] <Slart> A1Recon: this seems like it would be useful http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/wget.html#Types-of-Files
[18:43] <err-or> linuxearth: your kidding? your never safe!! safety is not real. its safe as long as you feel safe :P
[18:43] <linuxearth> err-or: correct but i was talking of my pc, ;)-
[18:43]  * cloudy_nz feels unsafe
[18:44] <Slart> A1Recon: is the page with the pdf's a public page? do you have the url?
[18:44] <Enemtee> wilee-nilee: I understand I should ask the manufacturer. But it's okay to ask if anyone has encountered any problems with voiding warranty while installing linux.
[18:44] <linuxearth> and you may be safe when your pc is not safe and at times, your pc is safe while you are unsafe, happens that also err-or
[18:44] <err-or> linuxearth: how do you mean? i don't get what mouse jumps have to do with safety?
[18:45] <linuxearth> that's why i am aksing how you said previously that i am safe?
[18:45] <wilee-nilee> !ot | Enemtee it isw not okay here
[18:45]  * cloudy_nz puts his PC in a safe
[18:45] <linuxearth> mouse jumps in the sense that my pc being compromised from a remote location
[18:45] <A1Recon> Slart: no on my university's server. Everyone has access from the network. But there are like 20 files and i don't want to rt-click and save each one of them(like the rest of my classmates are doing right now).
[18:45] <err-or> linuxearth: i thought plugin your mouse into the jack with the round design and these 4 pins :D
[18:45] <linuxearth> err-or: mouse jumps in the sense that my pc being compromised from a remote location
[18:45] <err-or> linuxearth: mouse!!
[18:45] <linuxearth> yes i did
[18:46] <linuxearth> but it doens't work
[18:46] <A1Recon> Slart: using their Win7 PCs
[18:46] <A1Recon> :P
[18:46] <linuxearth> A1Recon: thats not a solution
[18:46] <err-or> linuxearth: no one would vnc into your computer... if he knows how to compromise :D
[18:46] <err-or> linuxearth: buy a new mouse, and try again.
[18:47] <linuxearth> err-or: correct but how do i know that it has not been compromised
[18:47] <A1Recon> linuxearth: What's not  a solution...?
[18:47] <linuxearth> err-or: if anything goes wrong you direcltly buy the new things or sort out the one you have with.....>?
[18:48] <linuxearth> A1Recon: using windows
[18:48] <guest_____> How do I create a backup of the current Linux bootloader?  Also, how do I restore it and then fix the bootloader so that both Linux and Windows boots correctly?
[18:48] <linuxearth> using windows is not a solution
[18:49] <linuxearth> if we are facing some issue(s) with any thing we are using, we should try to solve that without rejecting it
[18:49] <linuxearth> like linux
[18:49] <linuxearth> especially for newbies like me
[18:49] <linuxearth> am i right?
[18:50] <linuxearth> ok guys thanks i have to go to work thanks
[18:50] <linuxearth> come later
[18:50] <err-or> you can't
[18:50] <Slart> A1Recon: ah.. I use wget every now and then but it usually involves a lot of trial and error before I get things right.. but a recursive download with the accept options I linked you before would be one way to go.. of course, if this is a one time thing I would look into downloading extensions to firefox, chrome and so on as well.. might be easier for a one time job
[18:51] <wilee-nilee> guest_____, You don't have to back these up they can be reloaded easy with install disc, or in windows a recovery or install disc.

[18:55] <Kchikmo> Hello evry1. On a dual boot with win8 and ubuntu studio 13.04. I had not used the win8 side in months and afetr doing so I've had the following message for about 30 minutes: "An error ocurred mounting /media/System_Reserved. Press S to skip mounting or N for manual recovery" Could this have to do with the fact that win8 was asking me to restart so it could finish some updates? what can I do...
[18:55] <Kchikmo> ...before hanging myself? TIA!!
[18:56] <Guest78332> hello all, this is my first exp with ubuntu
[18:57] <histo> Guest78332: congrats
[18:58] <Kchikmo> Guest78332; Welcome! You'll find here the best support in the world ... you just have to be patient sometimes.
[18:58] <histo> Kchikmo: possbile if the filesystem wasn't umounted properly on the windows side. Just boot back in windows and see
[18:58] <histo> Kchikmo: or fix the filesystem and mount it
[18:58] <Kchikmo> histo: How do I fix it?
[18:59] <Kchikmo> histo: should I press N?? Im scared to death: I've got over 10Gb NOT backedup
[19:07] <gassho> how do i make 12.10 manage a device it ran smoothly from installation but now doesn't
[19:07] <gassho> a wifi adapter
[19:08] <wilee-nilee> gassho, Start by posting the hardware.
[19:09] <wilee-nilee> gassho, run lsusb and identify the adaptor
[19:10] <gassho> found in lspci, not in lsusb ;s;
[19:10] <CyberJacob> Evening folks
[19:11] <gassho> Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter :D
[19:13] <wilee-nilee> gassho, I think that is the internal wifi.
[19:13] <gassho> me2 :>
[19:14] <gassho> ii could get updates and third party software after activating it in the setup but now i got a nice doorstop :/
[19:19] <mentoc> I have noticed lag in both chromium-browser as well as doing apt-get installs. For example, I'm running an apt-get install right now and I'm getting 19 kB/s . Are the servers just slow or is it likely another problem?
[19:20] <duoi> mentoc: how is your general internet connection?
[19:20] <duoi> you might have some caching issues with chromium (from my own experience)
[19:20] <mentoc> duoi, for the most part it's decent at 16-20 mBps
[19:20] <clue_h> mentoc, could try a web ping test on one of the source urls
[19:21] <mentoc> clue_h, ah yes haven't thought of that
[19:21] <mentoc> clue_h, the ping is taking 500+ ms
[19:22] <mentoc> ping google.com is the same
[19:22] <clue_h> what about from your local machine
[19:23] <mentoc> ping localhosts?
[19:23] <clue_h> nope
[19:23] <mentoc> clue_h, what do you mean?
[19:23] <clue_h> this is a long shot anyway but ping from terminal and compare that to a webservice that offers a ping to urls
[19:24] <mentoc> ok
[19:24] <duoi> mentoc: try ping.eu and network-tools.com
[19:25] <mentoc> in my /etc/resolv.conf there is a line for nameserver 127.0.1.1 ... instead of 127.0.0.1
[19:27] <Kroach> what packages do I need to play RTSP streams in Totem?
[19:28] <mentoc> I wonder if my ISP is throttling apt-gets
[19:28] <chaotic_good> how get running version of ubuntu again?
[19:28] <wilee-nilee> mentoc, Most likely mine does.
[19:29] <wilee-nilee> chaotic_good, What is your native language?
[19:29] <mentoc> average download speed is 1.7 mbps
[19:29] <clue_h> i didnt know they throttled apt-get ha
[19:29] <duoi> mentoc: can you download curl and investigate?
[19:30] <duoi> sudo apt-get install curl
[19:30] <duoi> then sudo curl -w
[19:30] <mentoc> duoi, what good will curl do? (with all do respect..)
[19:30] <chaotic_good> english my good man
[19:30] <wilee-nilee> its not that it is apt-get itself but the type of stream

[19:31] <wilee-nilee> chaotic_good, You are not making sense.
[19:31] <chaotic_good> in deadrat you do cat /etc/redhat-releae
[19:31] <chaotic_good> what command spits out ubuntu - version 12.04 etc
[19:31] <clue_h> chaotic_good, cat /etc/os-release

[19:33] <slimjimflim> hi, i've got two scripts, one that creates a bridge (br0) between wlan0 and eth0 to create a hotspot: http://pastie.org/8295367 and another that removes it:  http://pastie.org/8295372  but the problem is that when the hotspot is on, i lose connectivity from the ap box.  does anyone know how to fix this?  running xubuntu 12.04
[19:33] <chaotic_good> ah 12.04 precise pangolin
[19:33] <chaotic_good> as I suspected
[19:33] <chaotic_good> heh ha!

[19:39] <mentoc> duoi, Could disabling ipv6 help in my situation? I don't use it, but curl -w foo google.com gives me: curl: (7) Failed to connect to 2607:f8b0:400e:c04::6a: Network is unreachable

[19:46] <nimbiotics> using ubuntu-stydio 13.04, there are some autostart applications at session and satarup that are just NOT starting, but will work just fine when I execute the command from thunar or the CLI. whay is this happening?
[19:47] <nimbiotics> on a dual bootwith win8 and ubuntu-sudio 13.04; Is it possible to recover part of the win8 partition for linuz? hiw?
[19:47] <wilee-nilee> nimbiotics, as info there is a #ubuntu-studio channel if needed
[19:47] <mentoc> duoi, http://pastebin.com/7U20qeh0
[19:48] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: thx
[19:48] <Slart> nimbiotics: are you saving the output from the commands to a log file?
[19:49] <lawl> !support
[19:49] <wilee-nilee> nimbiotics, Rather small user base. Naming the not starting apps in your queries here as well will be helpful.
[19:49] <lawl>  Hi, my wireless arent working, disabled by hardware (something, my language is Swedish).. until I go into hibernate and then login again, then it starts working instantly!.. could somebody help me? =)
[19:49] <tcb^ll3r> Does apache come installed on 13.04?
[19:49] <Slart> tcb^ll3r: not by default, no
[19:50] <Slart> tcb^ll3r: it's available from the repos though
[19:50] <tcb^ll3r> Slart: software center , or apt-get?
[19:50] <tcb^ll3r> Slart:  the software center apache looked out of date.
[19:50] <Slart> tcb^ll3r: those both end up at the same place.. just more or less lights and lens-flares =) but yes, it's available through both
[19:51] <Slart> tcb^ll3r: ubuntu only does security updates (I don't think the rolling updates are implemented yet but I might be wrong)
[19:52] <wilee-nilee> lawl, Identify the wireless hardware to the channel.
[19:52] <Slart> tcb^ll3r: in most cases you'll be fine with the version in the repos..
[19:52] <tcb^ll3r> Slart: thanks. any other advice on getting LAMP stack going on 13.04 desktop?
[19:52] <Slart> !lamp | tcb^ll3r
[19:52] <jarco> hello people. I have a weird problem. My context menu's (right click menus) stay in the background. They dont jump to front like usual.
[19:52] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: i'm particularly interested in "CopyAgent" from Copy.com, a cloud storage "flavor"
[19:53] <Slart> tcb^ll3r: have a look at those links
[19:53] <tcb^ll3r> Slart:  k, thanks!
[19:53] <Slart> tcb^ll3r: you're welcome
[19:54] <lawl> Sorry, wilee-nilee, could you say more specific what I need to do?
[19:54] <wilee-nilee> nimbiotics, There are many ways to backup and or clone.
[19:55] <wilee-nilee> lawl, Run lspci find the wireless info and include it in your questions.
[19:55] <slimjimflim> hi, i've got two scripts, one that creates a bridge (br0) between wlan0 and eth0 to create a hotspot: http://pastie.org/8295367 and another that removes it:  http://pastie.org/8295372  but the problem is that when the hotspot is on, i lose connectivity from the ap box.  does anyone know how to fix this?  running xubuntu 12.04
[19:57] <lawl>  Hi, my wireless arent working, disabled by hardware (something, my language is Swedish).. until I go into hibernate and then login again, then it starts working instantly!.. could somebody help me? =)
[19:57] <lawl> Its a: Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
[19:57] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: Im atracted to this service because it offers 15Gb FREE and in less than 24 hours I've already earned 10Gb extras. All I want to do is hace a cloud backup ...but the progrma is just not starting
[19:58] <Slart> lawl: do you get anything suspicious in your dmesg when you boot up?
[19:58] <DWSR> Is there a way to run a command as a particular user AFTER encrypted home directories have been monuted?
[19:58] <DWSR> mounted*
[19:58] <wilee-nilee> nimbiotics, Sure however a 3rd party app, technically not supported here, however you may get help, I have never heard of it.
[19:59] <slimjimflim> lawl if you see your card in lsmod after coming out of hibernate, but not before, then the module might not be loading on boot
[20:00] <wilee-nilee> lawl, here are some threads to look through. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=AR9485+
[20:00] <lawl> slimjimflim, im dualbooting from grub2, could that be the cause of the problem?
[20:01] <Dr_Willis> DWSR:  you mean have the user run a command after they login? or have the system run a command after it has detected the user has logged in and their home is now aviable?
[20:01] <lawl> wilee-nilee, thanks i'll check!
[20:01] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: The application it is just not working right after login, but it does work perfectly when I issue the command ,,, why does it matter if its a 3rd party app or not??
[20:02] <DWSR> Dr_Willis: Ah, encrypted home directories are only mounted on login?
[20:02] <Dr_Willis> DWSR:  as far as i know - yes.
[20:02] <MagePsycho> how to cp files without overwrite prompt?
[20:02] <slimjimflim> lawl: probably not unless you're loading an outdated kernel image
[20:02] <DWSR> Dr_Willis: Mkay.
[20:02] <bekks> DWSR: Yes.
[20:02] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: besides, its not the only only one ... and they are ALL 3rd party apps .... it'd be a prob to get support from all of them...
[20:02] <wilee-nilee> nimbiotics, 3rd parties may not be known here is all, it is just a channel norm.
[20:02] <Dr_Willis> MagePsycho:  theres a option for cp to do that  - it may be you got some alias for cp that makes it ask. (-i i think asks)
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> MagePsycho:  cp --force   might do it
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> MagePsycho:  common alias for cp is 'cp -i' to make it always ask
[20:04] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: i'm not asking for support on the app. The app is not starting, nor giving me an error or warning of any kind
[20:05] <MagePsycho> cp -rn ../folder-to-copy . ?
[20:05] <wilee-nilee> nimbiotics, It is a simple problem here, you don't take your Volkswagen to a ford dealer. I would make sure there is no ubuntu option already.
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> MagePsycho:  try it on a test  case and see..  check 'man cp' also
[20:08] <map> hi 0- im having trouble with openvpn server..how could i chekc if its running on my server?
[20:08] <Slart> nimbiotics: have you tried replacing the app with a script that waits 10 seconds and then starts the app? perhaps it needs something to start up.. network connectivity, some folder mounted or whatever
[20:08] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: Certainly not. But I can take my vw and my ford to my garage and expect them both to start both inside or aoutside of my garage, instead of having one start and ending up pushing the other to make it work
[20:10] <nimbiotics> Slart: no, how can I do that?
[20:10] <Slart> nimbiotics: this program you're trying to autostart.. it's a file somewhere that is being run, right?
[20:11] <nimbiotics> Slart: yes
[20:11] <Slart> nimbiotics: rename that file and create a script with the name instead.. make it do the commands "sleep 10; your_renamed_file"
[20:12] <map> :
[20:12] <skorasaurus> hi, the desktop entry that I created - http://paste.ubuntu.com/6060176/ does display in the unity launcher, but it when I click on it, the program will not load. any idea how to fix this ?
[20:12] <Slart> nimbiotics: that way it will first wait 10 seconds.. and then try to run the original file.. that might make it work, even though it is kind of crude
[20:13] <Dr_Willis> skorasaurus:  askubuntu.com and i think webupd8 or omgubuntu blog sites have guides on getting sublime working  with a proper launcher file for an example
[20:13] <nimbiotics> wilee-nilee: Thanks Slart, I'm sure you are in the right track. Will google more on wait, try, logout/in and be back!!
[20:13] <cyberhack> have any method for hacking remote pc from google chrome
[20:13] <Dr_Willis> skorasaurus:  just a guess.. but id bet the spaces in the directory/path names are causing an issue
[20:13] <Slart> nimbiotics: good luck
[20:13] <wilee-nilee> cyberhack, wrong channel
[20:13] <Slart> cyberhack: wrong channel
[20:14] <cyberhack> why ?
[20:14] <map> i did service openvpn start and it creates tun0
[20:14] <Pici> !illegal | cyberhack
[20:14] <Dr_Willis> cyberhack:  troll elsewhere please. this is ubuntu support.
[20:14] <skorasaurus> Dr_Willis: thanks, I'll check that out.
[20:14] <Slart> cyberhack: this channel doesn't do illegal or even questionable stuff
[20:14] <wilee-nilee> cyberhack, take a guess, and read the channel header
[20:14] <cyberhack> aha ok people
[20:14] <cyberhack> sorry
[20:17] <map> can someone lend a hand
[20:18] <wilee-nilee> !patience | map
[20:19] <Slart> map: never used openvpn myself.. just be patient and repeat your question every 15 minutes or so (the entire question).. you can try other channels as well or use the time to add relevant facts to your question so people don't have to interrogate you =)
[20:20] <map> ok thanks :)
[20:25] <r0bo> i can't start my ubuntu VM. it says that init is missing. i tried fsck after running a live CD. didn't help. gives me a weird prompt. any thoughts?
[20:29] <histo> r0bo: is this an installed system or are you trying to boot the iso?
[20:29] <r0bo> histo: installed
[20:30] <histo> r0bo: was it working previously?
[20:30] <Dr_Willis> r0bo:  and whats this 'weird prompt'
[20:30] <r0bo> histo: yes it was
[20:30] <histo> r0bo: what were you doing when it broke?
[20:30] <map> hmm so i guess it isnt started tried to telnet to localhost;1194 - question is why isnt it starting!
[20:30] <r0bo> Dr_Willis: I can get that exact name for you it was like inittrafms
[20:30] <r0bo> histo: nothing really. it had been turned off over night
[20:31] <map> where would errors be shown for openvpn?
[20:31] <r0bo> the weird prompt was initramfs
[20:32] <r0bo> I also tried starting in Recovery mode
[20:33] <r0bo> it seems to be a common problem, but the solutions I found didn't help. they all say either run fsck, which I did, or add some line saying to "blacklist" something to a config file and I already tried that.
[20:34] <r0bo> here's a thread with the same problem, so you can see what I mean http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1788381

[20:37] <map> anon-124436,  for sure depending what it is

[20:44] <daftykins> anon-124436: unfortunately under Windows that's a very generic name, so you'd need to boot into Ubuntu and run "lspci" and tell us what the name comes up as there

[20:45] <Dr_Willis> there might be some hardware info tools for windiows that would tell you the chipset anon-124436  but  i dont know of any names. #windows may know
[20:45] <sere> Dr_Willis: not sure i just know that unity hides abunch of apps and i remember there is a command to enable the startup app program to see all of them
[20:46] <Maple__> Xfaulz, pretty much everything foss from the original kernel
[20:46] <Dr_Willis> sere:  they are all in ~/.config/autostart/ and /etc/xdg/autostart/        the ones in the xdg dir are not normally shown by default. since the user cant controll them
[20:46] <Xfaulz> oh...
[20:46] <anon-124436> assuming I knew the exact chipset, what would I do after that? [16:45] <Dr_Willis> there might be some hardware info tools for windiows that would tell you the chipset anon-124436  but  i dont know of any names. #windows may know
[20:46] <Dr_Willis> anon-124436:  then we can tell you what drivers. and theres no need to repeate what i just said.

[20:55] <llmatt556> Hi
[20:58] <Ca11um> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on this quite old laptop (made by Rock), but when the installer loads, no window appears, just a grey background and the taskbar
[20:58] <wilee-nilee> Ca11um, Have you made sure the hardware is up for running ubuntu?
[20:58] <Ca11um> Now I've tried it again the installer background has loaded but the taskbar is glitched (white and black bars)
[20:58] <BluesKaj> Ca11um:  how much RAM does it have?
[20:58] <Ca11um> The laptop brand is so obscure I can't find any info about it, but it runs Windows 7 fine
[20:58] <Ca11um> 2 GB
[20:59] <wilee-nilee> !nomodeset | Ca11um try this
[20:59] <llmatt556> Anyone else having issues with their GTX 460? Mine lags/stutters really bad on 3D apps (tried several drivers) in 12.04, Mint 13, and Mint 15. It would be great if I could actually get my Linux games working properly.
[20:59] <Ca11um> Thanks
[20:59] <Freeaqingme> Hi folks. In the past I had an application that automatically adjusted my screen brightness to the level of light outside. Would anybody recall the name of such application?
[20:59] <wilee-nilee> Ca11um, Check the sum of the install media as well if needed
[20:59] <MonkeyDust> Ca11um  sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
[21:00] <Ca11um> The same install media installed onto this machine just fine
[21:00] <Ca11um> How do I set nomodeset via unetbootin?
[21:01] <MonkeyDust> Ca11um  use netbootin to burn the usb stick, boot from that stick, set nomodeset
[21:01] <wilee-nilee> Ca11um, One can get to that area on unetbootin, I don't know how though.
[21:01] <llmatt556> Any suggestions on my GTX 460? The games run fine in Windoze.
[21:01] <ss_haze> how to highlight first letter libre office?
[21:02] <wilee-nilee> llmatt556, using Windoze does not give you creds here.
[21:02] <llmatt556> I am trying to get them working on Ubuntu. Thats why I'm here. Been trying for several days now.
[21:02] <wilee-nilee> that spelling that is
[21:03] <ss_haze> llmatt556: which games exactly doesn't work from steam natives?
[21:04] <llmatt556> I have tried Kerbal Spce Program (Non steam version), Left 4 DEad 2, and Garrys mod. All have massive stutter whenever moving the camera and slight stutter otherwise

[21:09] <wilee-nilee> Ca11um, you loading the usb from windows, or what OS?
[21:11] <Ca11um> I got it working with tab, wilee-nilee, thanks
[21:12] <wilee-nilee> cool
[21:20] <SilverSlimer> is it worth encrypting the whole of the hard disk in ubuntu?
[21:21] <gassho> internet works, os upgrade cli command doesn't heheh
[21:22] <wilee-nilee> SilverSlimer, I would not your just asking for a lock out, you can encrypt a folder if you need it that bad.
[21:23] <ejv> SilverSlimer: if you and/or your organization you work for are looking to achieve some sort of PCI compliance, you should review your best practices and organizational goals, then decide if encryption is needed within your environment.
[21:23] <SilverSlimer> wilee-nilee, alright. is it possible to remove the encryption without wiping the drive?
[21:23] <wilee-nilee> no idea
[21:24] <tmmunq> personally i fully encrypt my laptops, but i consider ecryptfs good enough on desktops. the encryption cannot be turned off, you must reformat to remove it
[21:25] <SilverSlimer> thanks tmmunq
[21:25] <SilverSlimer> i didn't realize that encryption caused such a powerful hit to disk performance
[21:25] <SilverSlimer> to be honest, i didn't notice the hit
[21:26]  * ejv facepalms
[21:26] <SilverSlimer> but the article on phoronix makes it seem like i lose 50% of my disk performance.
[21:26] <SilverSlimer> ejv, yes, i know it will obviously cause a hit. i just didn't think it was 50%
[21:26] <BluesKaj> encyption has it;s uses but to most users it can be a royal pita when it mucks up.
[21:27] <Guest33230> ...
[21:27] <SilverSlimer> does it muck up that much?
[21:28] <ejv> no, I'm captain-picarding because I responded to the question from an official enterprise standpoint; but now you sound like an "enthusiast" with a laptop that really just has no idea. I recommend doing your own benchmarking before trusting anything from Phoronix. That site is wildly inaccurate.
[21:28] <BluesKaj> there arew a lot of ppl asking about retrieving encrypted files or disks
[21:28] <BluesKaj> here lately , SilverSlimer
[21:28] <Ca11um> Okay so I've just installed Ubuntu 13.04 onto the laptop, and I now need to set nomodeset. How do I access the GRUB menu?
[21:29] <SilverSlimer> using the nouveau drivers, i think i removed most of the reasons for an ubuntu installation screwing up
[21:29] <Ca11um> I spammed shift when it was booting, it came up with 'GRUB' like an MS-DOS screen, but then continued to boot
[21:29] <SilverSlimer> when it's happened to me in the past, it was always due to proprietary drivers during an upgrade
[21:29] <ejv> The bottom line is that if you can *responsibly manage* your encrypted storage, and have a viable, accompanying backup, that is also responsibly managed, there is no reason to not encrypt your data.
[21:29] <SilverSlimer> i guess i'll just take my chances with encryption then
[21:29] <BluesKaj> Ca11um:  hold the left shift key down right after the bios page
[21:30] <BluesKaj> ejv:  very wise sounding words , but "stuff" happens
[21:30] <jater> WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A VSERVER A VPS AND A VDS?..?..?
[21:30] <ikonia> jater: don't use caps
[21:30] <SilverSlimer> ejv: thanks .. the only thing on this hd i'd be upset about losing is my documents folder but that's synced to ubuntu one anyway
[21:30] <ikonia> jater: it will depend where you are hearing these word
[21:30] <jater> IKONIA WHY NOT?..?..?
[21:31] <ikonia> jater: please don't - it's considered shouting,
[21:31] <jater> I AM SHOUTING.
[21:31] <jater> SO YOU CAN HEAAAAAAAR ME!..!..!
[21:31] <jater> okay
[21:31] <Ca11um> Thanks BluesKaj
[21:32] <llmatt556> Ok. Im back. What was the cmd that I was supposed to run? I am the one that was having issues with the GTX 460.
[21:32] <ejv> BluesKaj: "stuff happens" to be people that aren't prepared. Why would stuff happen if you responsibly backup your data?
[21:33] <gassho> HoWaBoUtThIs:)

[21:34] <Ca11um> or where do I get drivers from
[21:34] <BluesKaj> ejv:  this discussion is moot to me , i have my data backed , but being a home user encryption isn't really necessary ...I'm referreing to all the ppl in here lateky trying to find out how to rescue their dat a that was on the job
[21:34] <tmmunq> the overhead is pretty minimal. the slowest component is still the disk, in most cases. if you encrypt and ssd, you want to get a modern chip with aes acceleration
[21:34] <ikonia> Ca11um: drivers are in the kernel so yes
[21:35] <johnjohn1011> what kind of modern chip are you talking about? cpu?
[21:35] <llmatt556> Any suggestions on how to get my GTX 460 to stop lagging in Linux games? Currently on Ubuntu 12.04
[21:35] <SilverSlimer> tmmunq, it's encryption + ssd, not sure if the core i3 330m has aes though
[21:35] <tmmunq> yes
[21:35] <BluesKaj> and it's time go have some dinner
[21:35] <ejv> my suggestion is to buy a windows licence and dual boot
[21:36] <SilverSlimer> tmmunq: so i shouldn't worry about disk performance at all?
[21:36] <llmatt556> I have windows but I like Ubuntu :)
[21:36] <tmmunq> http://ark.intel.com/products/47663
[21:36] <ejv> i know that's not a popular idea, but it's not worth the troubleshooting headache when doing gaming
[21:36] <llmatt556> My friend didnt have any trouble with it.
[21:37] <tmmunq> it doesn't. find something better. because the ssd is so much faster than platter, the slow cpu can max out trying to keep up with the io
[21:37] <Dr_Willis> llmatt556:  its possible a newer ubuntu reelase may work better - due to the newer kernel and video drivers
[21:37] <ejv> llmatt556: "your friend"? do you have exactly identical hardware? identical OS? identical packages?
[21:37] <Dr_Willis> llmatt556:  what games are you having the issues with?
[21:38] <usr13> Dr_Willis: llmatt556 If it is a problem with system resources, how about just leaning it up a bit?
[21:38] <llmatt556> I tried Linux Mint 15 and had the same issue. Isnt it based off the latest (or close to latest) Ubuntu?
[21:38] <SilverSlimer> wow, the core i3 330m doesn't support ecc memory. no wonder those ram chips didn't work
[21:38] <Dr_Willis> llmatt556:  i dont keep up with what mint is doing
[21:38] <llmatt556> It is a fresh installed Ubuntu and the games run fine on Windows. Not much to lean up.
[21:39] <llmatt556> Also, the games are KSP, L4D2, and Garrys Mod. Those are all I have tried.
[21:39] <Marlenee> can i use "time' command before "nohup" command to measure the time of command while it runnig after i exit my session ??
[21:39] <SilverSlimer> llmatt556, as a gamer who wants to game through ubuntu, let me give you advice: use windows for games. the stuff available on steam for linux is awful
[21:40] <usr13> llmatt556: Using Unity?
[21:40] <SilverSlimer> metro last light and tropico are supposed to be available but it's not true but either
[21:40] <llmatt556> Usr: yes
[21:40] <usr13> llmatt556: How about lubuntu-desktop?
[21:40] <clue_h> an elder scrolls morrowind is in the pipeline almost there
[21:40] <llmatt556> USR: ? Dont think I have used that.
[21:40] <histo> llmatt556: what video card do you have?
[21:41] <llmatt556> GTX 460
[21:41] <histo> llmatt556: did you install nvidia drivers?
[21:41] <llmatt556> HistO: Yes.
[21:41] <usr13> llmatt556: I don't know, but just try and see.  sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
[21:42] <Dr_Willis> there is a 'steam desktop' package llmatt556  mentioned at either the omgubuntu or webupd8 blog site. it gives you a new login session that just runs steam. so you have all resources available for games
[21:42] <Gambaroni> Hello
[21:43] <usr13> llmatt556: Yea, steam, I think Dr_Willis has best idea.
[21:43] <llmatt556> DR: But the games are not using up all my resources currently.
[21:43] <Gambaroni> I have a problem that it seems like someone have stolen my passwords to the accounts. I would like to find out how they could have got that information. Someone have made 8 successful logins from 8 different IPs in 3 minutes and I'm totally sure it's not me or anyone else with access. Any idea how I could find out+
[21:43] <Loshki> SilverSlimer: not saying your're wrong, but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Core_i3_microprocessors says it does support ecc...
[21:44] <usr13> llmatt556: But the "lagging" must be happening for a reason... Right?
[21:44] <usr13> Gambaroni: No, but change passwords.
[21:44] <Dr_Willis> http://www.webupd8.org/2012/12/better-steam-for-linux-performance-with.html      'steam login'
[21:45] <Loshki> Gambaroni: wanna post the logs to pastebin so we can all see them?
[21:45] <SilverSlimer> loshki: intel's page says it doesn't
[21:45] <Gambaroni> Loshki: what logs do you wanna see?
[21:45] <llmatt556> Yes but it is not not having enough resources. My friend (who runs games fine on Linux) has a slower PC than me. It is some ineffciency or error going on the background.
[21:45] <usr13> Gambaroni: /var/log/syslog
[21:45] <Loshki> SilverSlimer: well, they should know. Maybe ask on #hardware to confirm?
[21:46] <llmatt556> I will try the steam login program though and see if that helps.
[21:46] <Loshki> Gambaroni: well, start with posting whatever made you suspicious that \you've had 8 logins and their IP addresses
[21:47] <kostkon> llmatt556, what's your problem exactly? just wondering. nothing else
[21:47] <llmatt556> Kost: Games lag and stutter a lot, especially when I move the camera
[21:47] <kostkon> llmatt556, okie
[21:48] <usr13> Gambaroni: Logins to what?  ssh?
[21:48] <Gambaroni> Loshki: At first injected code in some of the websites, the one that have logged in via ssh as I described
[21:48] <Gambaroni> usr13: yes
[21:48] <SilverSlimer> llmatt556: how much ram on the gtx 460 and which games?
[21:48] <Gambaroni> Loshki: Looks like this: auth.log.2.gz:3186:Aug 20 18:01:05 xxx sshd[19092]: Accepted password for user1 from 46.105.118.216 port 58061 ssh2
[21:49] <llmatt556> 1GB GDDR5 and on every game I have tried it does the same. (KSP, Garrys Mod, L4D2)
[21:49] <Gambaroni> Loshki: each site is running with it's user, using suexec
[21:49] <usr13> Gambaroni: Weak passwords?
[21:50] <Dr_Willis> you got ssh running on port 58061 ?
[21:50] <Gambaroni> Dr_Willis: No
[21:51] <Dr_Willis> somthing definatly seems weird then.
[21:51] <Gambaroni> usr13: It's not perfect (not my fault.. :)), but smallcaps 8 letters, no special chars or numbers
[21:52] <Gambaroni> usr13: BUT, I cannot see anywhere that they have been bruteforcing through SSH. That made me think of maybe they have got the /etc/shadow in some way and then bruteforcing locally
[21:52] <usr13> Gambaroni: What about your firewall?  (Stand alone firewall, right?)
[21:53] <Gambaroni> usr13: no firewall, this is a server
[21:53] <usr13> Gambaroni: So you originally had ssh open to the world?
[21:53] <Gambaroni> usr13: yes
[21:53] <OerHeks> no fail2ban ..
[21:53] <usr13> Gambaroni: A server with no firewall between it and the internet and ssh is open to the world.  I think you should unplug it.
[21:54] <Gambaroni> OerHeks: well, no. BUT that wouldn't catch this, because all logins were successful on first attempt
[21:55] <usr13> Gambaroni: No mystery there, password got loose from someone.
[21:55] <SysFailure0x5a> I'm having an issue with PHP on Ubuntu Server that is driving me nuts. I've been at this for two days.
[21:55] <usr13> Gambaroni: (Someone got the list.)
[21:56] <jhonake3> Hey guys. I'm having some trouble with my screen rotating on log in (I don't want it to, it rotates CCW)
[21:56] <jhonake3> Is there a way I can see what is running on login to see what's causing it?
[21:56] <usr13> Gambaroni: ssh should be limited to only those that need it, (for one thing).
[21:56] <jhonake3> I tried searching, but all I found is history, which only shows me the bash commands I've typed
[21:57] <SysFailure0x5a> I set the memory_limit is php.ini but it's being ignored.
[21:57] <Gambaroni> usr13: how do you mean by the list?
[21:57] <usr13> Gambaroni: ...of passwords
[21:58] <Gambaroni> usr13: but we don't have any list taht just contains password for those accounts. There are some more accounts
[21:58] <leotr> hi! I'm trying to upload big file to remote ubuntu server using this command $ rsync --partial --progress --rsh='ssh -p1051' /g/Soft/MRP.zip administrator@37.17.177.34:~/MRP.zip
[21:58] <usr13> Gambaroni: Is it a webserver?
[21:58] <Gambaroni> usr13: yes
[21:58] <leotr> it can connect but i get empty file on remote server
[21:59] <leotr> http://pastebin.com/gHzW2cX2
[21:59] <leotr> client is windows with mingw
[22:00] <usr13> Gambaroni: And there are multiple sites with corresponding users that login via ssh to upload content?
[22:01] <usr13> Gambaroni: Is that correct ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ?
[22:02] <jhonake3> How can I see the scripts run at login?
[22:02] <Gambaroni> usr13: it is correct. but it is just me and my friend (his server) that have all the passwords.
[22:02] <jrib> jhonake3: why?
[22:03] <usr13> Gambaroni: Obviously you or your friend have lst the list of passwords get away.
[22:03] <jned> if I edit /etc/resolve.conf how do I make the change persist a reboot?
[22:03] <Santa>  /msg NickServ REGISTER _SantaC odwyer02@yahoo.com
[22:03] <Gambaroni> usr13: that was my thought first also. But then I thought they have injected in all accounts. Not just the half of them..
[22:03] <usr13> Gambaroni: 1)  You should have a stand-alone router/firewall between the server and the internet.  2) ssh should be limited
[22:06] <usr13> gotta go.
[22:06] <napsc> Gambaroni: you can set up ssh keys and disable password authentication.
[22:06] <usr13>  ... for now.
[22:06] <Gambaroni> usr13: yeah
[22:06] <Gambaroni> napsc: that is what I think of as well
[22:07] <napsc> it's much easier than maintaining  pw's... too many pw's these days.
[22:12] <ejv> Santa: you sent that nickserv register request to the public channel, if that's also the password of your Yahoo email, I suggest you change it ASAP.
[22:12] <debrisrat> hi all
[22:13] <histo> hola
[22:13] <SilverSlimer> pff
[22:13] <map> hi
[22:13] <SilverSlimer> everyone knows that yahoo mail accounts are used for spam only
[22:14] <ejv> SilverSlimer: comments like that should go in #ubuntu-offtopic thx :)
[22:14] <histo> Gambaroni: fail2ban
[22:14] <debrisrat> sorry i'm using ubuntu 13  i installed netbeans on software center  but it is not working ! can you help me this problem?
[22:14] <tannji> what is involved in formatting a Usb drive so that I can install win 7 on another machine?  I have an iso for win7, the other machine does not have an optical drive.
[22:14] <ejv> !details > debrisrat
[22:16] <debrisrat> ejv:  i can show my console print out . where can i paste it result?
[22:16] <SilverSlimer> tannji, i believe that unetbootin would actually work
[22:16] <tannji> Or conversely, once I have the second machine physically here, can I share my dvd drive in this ubuntu box over my lan?
[22:16] <bekks> !pastebin| debrisrat
[22:16] <SilverSlimer> tannji, install the aforementioned application, load up the windows 7 iso within it and 'burn' it onto the usb drive. i believe it will work
[22:17] <Loshki> Gambaroni: I agree with usr13/napsc. Put a NAT firewall between your server and internet, allow ssh only using keys, preferably on a non-standard port. How did they get user1's password? Were there lots of failed login attempts followed by a successful one, or did they know the password before they even started?
[22:17] <SysFailure0x5a> I'm having an issue with PHP on Ubuntu Server 12.04 that is driving me nuts. I've been at this for two days
[22:17] <SilverSlimer> microsoft also offers an iso writer for usb but don't ask me where the heck it can be found
[22:17] <tannji> SilverSlimer,  k, will look at it, think I have that util already.
[22:17] <histo> leotr: try it with -c option now
[22:17] <histo> Gambaroni: did you ever paste your auth.log ?
[22:18] <tannji> SilverSlimer,  would sharing the DVD drive over the network be doable?
[22:18] <Gambaroni> histo: yes, one line from it that
[22:18] <SysFailure0x5a> I set the memory_limit is php.ini but it's being ignored
[22:18] <debrisrat> paste.ubuntu.com is not working :S
[22:18] <Gambaroni> Loshki: the case is that it is in log auth.log 30 min pause, then 8 successful logins in 4 minutes from 8 different ips without any fail
[22:18] <SilverSlimer> tannji, i'd be surprised if it did
[22:18] <histo> Gambaroni: look further back in the auth.log for the brutefoce attempts
[22:19] <histo> Gambaroni: are any of your people using sshfs or anything?
[22:19] <Gambaroni> histo: yes, that would be it maybe. The log is ending there.. 11 augusti
[22:19] <Gambaroni> histo: no
[22:20] <hyprvx> Is there anyone here who has experience with Windows Phone and the app Tether-X?
[22:21] <histo> Gambaroni: look back at previous logs auth.log.1 .2.gz etc..
[22:21] <debrisrat> eyj :  thats here! http://paste.ubuntu.com/6060537/
[22:21] <Gambaroni> histo: it is in the last one.. auth.log.6.gz
[22:21] <histo> Gambaroni: the attack?
[22:21] <debrisrat> ejv: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6060537/  thats here :S
[22:21] <Gambaroni> histo: the successful logins yes
[22:22] <Gambaroni> histo: and then some again 9 days later
[22:22] <Gsport> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQ1MjQ
[22:22] <histo> Gambaroni: you aren't making any sense to me. What is your question?
[22:23] <Gsport> troll
[22:23] <debrisrat> ejv:  i was install netbeans 3 times :S again again again...
[22:23] <hyprvx> How can I form an Ad-Hoc network with my phone using Ubuntu 12.04?
[22:23] <|dfrank|> hi.  I tried to turn on proprietary drivers for broadcom wireless card, and it crashed. Now, when I try to do something with apt-get, it says that I need to call   dpkg --configure -a    and if I type it, it crashes again. How to forget this failed installation and never try again?
[22:23] <Gsport> i do everything 3 times just to be sure
[22:23] <hyprvx> Agh, 13.04.
[22:23] <Loshki> Gambaroni: if that's true, it implies they knew the passwords before they tried to log in. Either they're legitimate logins (46.105.118.216 looks like it's in Paris) or someone broke your password/shadow file, or the password was trivial...
[22:24] <map> hi
[22:24] <histo> hyprvx: with network manager
[22:24] <map> if im running openvpn server shouldnt there be an entry in netstat 1194 ? how do i see that server is running
[22:24] <hyprvx> histo: mind elaborating?
[22:24] <Gsport> you gota love 1024 chars passwords with funky simbols on them
[22:25] <|dfrank|> please, does anyone have an idea how to make dpkg forget previous failed operation?
[22:25] <Gambaroni> Loshki: not legitimate.. :D
[22:25] <histo> hyprvx: just edit your wireless connections via the network manager icon by the clock
[22:26] <histo> Gambaroni: or they broke your password and rootkit'd the machine already
[22:26] <Gsport> thats why my system dosent have paswords
[22:27] <debrisrat> ejv: can you help me *
[22:27] <Gsport> and i run as root
[22:27] <hyprvx> allow me to elaborate then: I need to form an Ad-hoc network with my phone to make a new network, using my phone as the in-line with an app called Tether-X. The app has a tutorial for Windows, but I use Ubuntu on my target computer
[22:27] <Gsport> if they hack me im going to the police
[22:27] <dman777_1lter> hi, does rc.local need to be added to with update-rc.d?
[22:27] <histo> Gsport: why would you run as root?
[22:27] <Loshki> Gambaroni: in that case, you know what to do. usr13 and napsc have already covered it...
[22:27] <histo> dman777_1lter: no, What are you trying to do?
[22:28] <Gsport> why not?
[22:28] <histo> Gsport: fat fingers
[22:28] <Gsport> that way i dont need to type sudo
[22:28] <histo> omfg
[22:28] <dman777_1lter> histo: i placed echo '/opt/scripts/script.sh' >> /etc/rc.local but the script is not executing upon boot up
[22:28] <Loshki> Gsport: well, running a browser as root is a form of russian roulette...
[22:28] <debrisrat> netbeans give me fail on start  thats here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6060537/   thanks for your helps.
[22:28] <Gsport> it saved severall weeks in the 20 years ive been using linux
[22:28] <histo> dman777_1lter: is the script in that location and check that it's in rc.local
[22:29] <dman777_1lter> histo: yes, verified
[22:29] <Gambaroni> Loshki: true
[22:29] <histo> Gsport: you could have just configured sudo according to your needs but whatever.
[22:29] <Gambaroni> histo: do you think so? wouldn't they have injected all the sites hten..?
[22:30] <map> should openvpn or port 1194 be listed somewhere not sure how to check?!
[22:30] <clue_h> map try ss -ap
[22:30] <Gsport> its the machine thats supposed to work for me not me working for the machine
[22:30] <Loshki> dman777_1lter: the script will also presumably need execute permissions
[22:30] <dman777_1lter> Loshki: yes, it has them
[22:30] <histo> Gambaroni: It's quite possible.  Also why are you administering a server you know nothing about?
[22:31] <Gsport> cause ihes an H@s0r
[22:31] <Gsport> cause ihes an H@X0r
[22:31] <histo> Gambaroni: and what version of ubuntu is the server running?
[22:31] <histo> Gsport: then through out your keyboard if the machine is supposed to work for you.
[22:31] <gordonjcp> Gsport: did you have an Ubuntu support question?
[22:31] <histo> s/through/throw/
[22:32] <Gsport> yes but i forgot
[22:32] <Loshki> dman777_1lter: start adding "echo 'got to line 12' >> /tmp/t.txt' lines to your script to see where it's dying...
[22:32] <map> thanks clue_h
[22:32] <Fyodorovna> Gsport, cause your a soci-path
[22:32] <Gsport> and you are a asshole
[22:32] <map> hmm
[22:33] <map> i see tcp uncoon 0 0 ; ipproto-1194
[22:33] <Gambaroni> histo: 12.04 LTS
[22:33] <map> but i specified udp in the openvpn conf?
[22:33] <clue_h> map thats openvpns default port
[22:33] <map> ya
[22:33] <map> but it says tcp..the config i had udp?
[22:34] <clue_h> i think... it listens on udp and does the tunneling through tcp
[22:34] <map> aha
[22:34] <clue_h> i use it myself but i forgot lol
[22:34] <jned> you know the startup scripts for ubuntu 11.01, can I add dhclient there, cause it requires sudo, can you add things that require sudo to the startup scripts?
[22:34] <map> thanks mate
[22:34] <map> so its a problem client end
[22:34] <clue_h> most likely
[22:34] <map> there's no iptables rules etc but i cant connect to this
[22:34] <histo> !language | Gsport
[22:34] <histo> !who | map
[22:35] <map> thanks clue_h  ;]
[22:35] <clue_h> map, np :]
[22:35] <dman777_1lter> Loshki: oh...think i see. i have it write to a file in /root/. changed it to /home/file. seems like during boot up it should have access to /root
[22:39] <Gsport> histo, you are a socio-path
[22:39] <Gsport> i just got this new trolling sentence
[22:41] <Snake2k> Hello everyone, what's the best way to install KDE on 12.04? kubuntu-desktop or kde-full?
[22:42] <histo> Snake2k: if you want the kubuntu "experience" then you would install kubuntu-desktop
[22:42] <Snake2k> histo, what's the difference between the experience and the real thing? lol
[22:43] <Gsport> the reall thing is in the clouds
[22:44] <histo> !best | Snake2k
[22:44] <Snake2k> histo, Ah I see, thanks :)
[22:44] <Snake2k> Gsport,  O_o
[22:45] <Gambaroni> histo: but if the sites is running with low access accounts, would it still be possible to install rootkit?
[22:46] <testpil0t> Gambaroni, somebody would have to exploit the account to gain higher privileges
[22:46] <Gsport> Gambaroni, just install steam client
[22:46] <bekks> Gambaroni: Sure.
[22:46] <Gambaroni> testpil0t: to a root-account?
[22:46] <bekks> Gambaroni: Sure.
[22:47] <Ca11um> lol, executing 'pkill /?' was a fatal mistake
[22:47] <Gsport> you dont execute stuff on linux you run them
[22:48] <Ca11um> But you execute a command?
[22:48] <Gambaroni> bekks: I see, that doesn't feel very likely in this case
[22:49] <Gsport> besides you dont use / in linux ever
[22:49] <Ca11um> I forgot /? is for Windows, not Linux
[22:50] <Gsport> google have taken linux and made it proprietary
[22:51] <Gsport> just like ubuntu is trying
[22:52] <dman777_1lter> by the time rc.local runs, is hostname established?
[22:54] <histo> dman777_1lter: it should be run after everything else
[22:59] <Gambaroni> histo: is there any way to see if a rootkit has been installed?
[22:59] <histo> Gambaroni: there are rootkit hunters/checkers in the repos
[22:59] <bekks> Gambaroni: rkhunter and chkrootkit e.g.
[23:00] <bekks> There is no guarantee that those tools will always find every rootkit.
[23:00] <Gsport> linux usage is deckining
[23:00] <Gsport> why do i hvae to have root user?
[23:00] <gordonjcp> Gsport: historical accident
[23:01] <geri> is there a profile file in ubuntu? source ~/.profile
[23:01] <Gsport> can i rename root to something else?
[23:01] <gordonjcp> Gsport: actually having a valid root login is obsolete
[23:01] <gordonjcp> Gsport: you can, but it might break some things
[23:01] <Gsport> might break the rootkits
[23:01] <Gambaroni> histo, bekks: I see. Maybe I'll try these
[23:02] <gordonjcp> Gsport: unlikely, since they usually work by running something with elevated privileges
[23:02] <Gsport> hahah nice try Aarn
[23:04] <Ca11um> Is it impossible for ATI RADEON HD users to play Steam games? I've installed the latest proprietary drivers for my ATI RADEON HD 5570, but I get an openGL error when trying to launch any Steam game
[23:05] <aldaek> im having problems with viewing and uploading files to a samba server with the default file browser for ubuntu. However, the smbclient works perfectly.
[23:05] <argh> سمَـَّوُوُحخ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ امارتيخ ̷̴̐خ  :)
[23:05] <waterlite> woto
[23:06] <aldaek> argh: English characters and language, please.
[23:06] <TheDrums> It's a Mac exploit.
[23:06] <Gsport> aldaek, try kubuntu
[23:06] <tomslominski> Hi. My permissions seem to have messed up a little. I've got a folder called public in my apache2 webserver files directory (/home/user/www/) and there's some files in there that I can't access as a normal user. Tried chmodding them to 644 and chowning them to user:user, but still I get ls cannot access:permission denied errors.
[23:06] <waterlite> TheDrums,  no its not
[23:06] <waterlite> its hus language
[23:07] <jrib> tomslominski: are you using ubuntu?
[23:07] <waterlite> please not being racist
[23:07] <waterlite> stop*
[23:07] <tomslominski> jrib: yes :)
[23:07] <aldaek> is there a problem with ubuntu and samba, then? while kde based applications work?
[23:07] <jrib> tomslominski: /home/user/www/public is an odd path, thus why I asked.  Pastebin input and output of the commands you mentioned in your question (that show permissions and your inability to access the file)
[23:07] <Gsport> kse FSBROWSER IS WAY BETTER
[23:08] <Gsport> YOU GET KIO SLAVES THAT WORK FOR PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF
[23:08] <jrib> Gsport: no need for caps
[23:09] <rom12three> hi room
[23:09] <aldaek> fsbrowser?
[23:09] <Gsport> apt-get install konqueror
[23:09] <aldaek> ok..
[23:09] <testerer> Problem with sudoers not accepting this command:  user1 ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/shutdown -h now
[23:10] <tomslominski> jrib: I've stuck them in there so that I don't have to become root when I want to work with files on my development webserver. Here's the output: http://pastebin.com/Z3Zb4BS4
[23:10] <Ca11um> What does 'apt-get upgrade' do, exactly?
[23:10] <jrib> tomslominski: you need execute permissions on public
[23:10] <Ca11um> Is there a difference between an update and an upgrade?
[23:11] <DaphneGreengrass> Ca11um, update updates your packagelists
[23:11] <DaphneGreengrass> upgrade upgrades the packages
[23:11] <tomslominski> jrib: recursively, or just on the folder?
[23:11] <jrib> tomslominski: just on the directory
[23:11] <Gsport> upgrade upgrades your distro version
[23:11] <takisan> technically, upgrade just upgrades the packages.
[23:11] <jrib> Gsport: no
[23:12] <Gsport> yes
[23:12] <takisan> `do_release_upgrade` upgrades the distro version, or something like that.
[23:12] <Jagst3r15> I just tried updating 12.04 to 12.10 and now I cannot get to the ubuntu login screen! It is just black now when I click on the ubuntu option in grub!
[23:12] <clue_h> i thought dist upgrade
[23:12] <tomslominski> jrib: It works, thanks :) Do you know why it's that way?
[23:12] <Gsport> ubuntu is just debian done wrong
[23:12] <TheDrums> "upgrade" is a "safe upgrade", "dist-upgrade" will install new depends if needed, or remove conflicting packages.
[23:12] <jrib> tomslominski: execute on directories let you cd into the directory
[23:13] <Gsport> ubuntu is basically safer debian testing
[23:13] <Jagst3r15> anyone? :(
[23:13] <tomslominski> jrib: I see. 644 on the files itself (rw-r--r--) should be enough for the files themselves, right?
[23:13] <jrib> Gsport: this channel is for support. If you don't have a question related to ubuntu support or don't want to help someone else with an ubuntu support question, please be quiet.
[23:14] <jrib> tomslominski: that's right
[23:14] <tomslominski> jrib: Cool, thanks!
[23:14] <JesseH> Anyone have any ideas of why internet could have huge lag spikes lasting about 30 seconds or so easy time?
[23:15] <Gsport> some one is sharing your internet connection?
[23:15] <JesseH> each*
[23:16] <napsc> tomslominski: a good way to remember that is execute permission on directory is sometimes referred to as being 'searchable'
[23:17] <tomslominski> napsc: I previously thought that it was just so that files could be executed, ever realised it has any effect on directories.
[23:17] <Jagst3r15> nvm I found it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair#A2nd_option_%3a_install_Boot-Repair_in_Ubuntu
[23:17] <JesseH2> :|
[23:18] <JesseH2> Gsport, That might be a possibility. Its been happening more recently, and got worse last night.
[23:18] <JesseH2> How can I monitor who is on my network?
[23:18] <histo> JesseH2: look at your routers logs
[23:19] <histo> JesseH2: and ping scan your subnet
[23:20] <JesseH2> What does "join multicast group" mean?
[23:20] <JesseH2> I see it a lot. There are lots of logs here lol
[23:20] <JesseH2> and lots of cryptic type stuff
[23:23] <Wolfium> hello all
[23:23]  * Nerfherder waves.
[23:23] <Wolfium> I am having an issue while connecting to my iburst usb modem I go for pppoeconf
[23:23] <takisan> Hej Wolfium.
[23:23] <Wolfium> and set up the connection and it works perfectly
[23:24] <Wolfium> but when I open firefox the whole system freezes
[23:24] <Wolfium> any help about this problem
[23:24] <Wolfium> ?
[23:24] <testerer> Wolfium..got enough ram?  freezing sounds like a classic low ram scenario.
[23:25] <Wolfium> brand new laptop
[23:25] <Wolfium> 4 gb
[23:25] <Wolfium> ddr3
[23:25] <gool> anyone here dual booting on uefi?
[23:25] <gool> i've had immense troubles doing so
[23:25] <Wolfium> I tried to create a bridged connection in my network manager
[23:26] <threh> gool: I am
[23:26] <Wolfium> but it wont identify the ib0
[23:26] <Wolfium> automatically
[23:26] <JesseH> Okay so there are three people connected to my network. When there should be two.
[23:26] <gool> threh, did you have to change anything in the bios?
[23:26] <threh> what's your laptop, if I may ask
[23:26] <JesseH> Any advice on handling this situation?
[23:26] <gool> asus lleme google the model
[23:27] <threh> Let me remember
[23:27] <threh> I was installing Ubuntu the other day
[23:27] <threh> and that's why I came in here
[23:27] <gool> Asus X53SVRH71
[23:27] <peterrooney> JesseH: (i) why do you say that there are three connected? (ii) solutions are legion.
[23:27] <Wolfium> if i cant get any help here any other channel for networking anyone would suggest
[23:27] <Wolfium>  ?
[23:28] <aldaek> this user's issue is apparently happening across multiple file browsers... is there a library that i need to reinstall?
[23:28] <Wolfium> cuz now im stuck with windows guyz its a nightmare i tell you :S
[23:28] <gool> wolfium whats your issue?
[23:28] <threh> gool: did you already install ubuntu?
[23:28] <gool> yeah threh
[23:28] <JesseH> peterrooney, I assume that the DHCP client list would tell me, heh
[23:28] <threh> So the issue is you can't get it to boot?
[23:28] <gool> i got rid of windows 8, but i'd like to dualboot another debian
[23:28] <aldaek> user cannot upload files through gui access to smb share, while smbclient works perfectly.
[23:28] <Wolfium> well on ubuntu 13.04 64bit I bought a usb modem Iburst
[23:28] <threh> for my laptop, I hit the boot options key and select Ubuntu from the options
[23:28] <gool> i want to dual boot crunchbang with ubuntu
[23:29] <napsc> JesseH: depends on lease time expiration
[23:29] <Wolfium> installed the software and the ibdrivers and dkms
[23:29] <Wolfium> went to pppoeconf
[23:29] <Wolfium> configured
[23:29] <threh> my issue is no matter all I
[23:29] <threh> have tried, brightness change won't work.
[23:29] <Wolfium> and did a pon dsl-providor
[23:29] <gool> threh you on a laptop?
[23:29] <Wolfium> and then i do a plog
[23:29] <Wolfium> everything is fine
[23:30] <threh> yes, HP, a new model
[23:30] <Wolfium> but when I open any browser or anything that has to do with the internet
[23:30] <gool> dv7?
[23:30] <threh> the brightness keys, xbacklight, nothing works
[23:30] <threh> 15t-j000
[23:30] <Wolfium> the whole system freezes and i have to force shut down
[23:31] <wilee-nilee> !reisub | wolfium
[23:31] <gool> threh, try this in terminal http://pastebin.com/qcEvTvTU
[23:31] <threh> gool: my sys class backlight is empty :(
[23:31] <gool> oh ok
[23:31] <gool> one sec i found a thread on this, so your keys will work
[23:31] <gool> leme PB it
[23:31] <Random832> half of that sequence is cargo cult superstition
[23:32] <gool> http://pastebin.com/difgtv1t threh
[23:32] <threh> alright thanks, I'd love this to work, I'm on w8 right now because ubuntu was sucking up too much battery
[23:32] <threh> because of the brightness issue
[23:32] <threh> ah, I've tried that too
[23:32] <gool> it looks like grub on the new hps doesnt recognize the hotkeys associated with brightness
[23:32] <Wolfium> any solution so that i may ocnnect to the iburst and use the internet on the ubuntu sys im on windows now
[23:32] <Wolfium> and ive been using linux for 3 years now
[23:32] <Wolfium> no way am going back
[23:33] <threh> gool: I've tried that and the acpi_osi trick and xbacklight and xgamma
[23:33] <threh> I dunno anymore
[23:33] <threh> I think I might have to wait for a new kernel update?
[23:34] <gool> threh, go to system settings -> keyboard & mouse -> keyboard shortcuts
[23:35] <gool> nvm its different on ubuntu
[23:35] <gool> I'm invested in your issue now
[23:35] <threh> that's very kind of you
[23:35] <gool> threh
[23:35] <telldrak> Hello
[23:35] <gool> you know how to get to shell script ?
[23:36] <threh> to run one? yeah
[23:36] <gool> like in bios
[23:36] <gool> not in ubuntu
[23:36] <threh> That I don't think I know
[23:36] <DummyBook> anyone here selling a macbook pro?
[23:36] <threh> I'll switch to my phone
[23:36] <telldrak> built myself a new box just for Ubuntu Server today, have it up and running now. I built it for working with the MEAN stack
[23:37] <gool> wait threh
[23:37] <gool> dont leave me
[23:37] <gool> lol
[23:37] <gool> go to terminal first
[23:37] <FloodBot1> gool: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:37] <gool> and try to do brightness with hotkeys from there
[23:37] <gool> fn + whatever it is
[23:37] <threh> but it's not just the hotkeys that's the issue
[23:37] <Nerfherder> threh, I had a similar issue with my Pavilion dv7-6135dx.  I had to add acpi_backlight=vendor to my kernel parameters to get the brightness to adjust properly.
[23:38] <threh> didn't work for me, but I added acpi_osi=Linux or Windows or !Windows 2012 too
[23:38] <Nerfherder> Ah, hmm, okay.  Rats, thought I'd save the day there for a second.  ;-)
[23:39] <threh> gool: what was the shell script
[23:39] <threh> it didn't paste
[23:40] <gool> i private messaged you so i dont spam
[23:40] <threh> hmmm, I dunno, I don't think it's just a keyboard issue though
[23:41] <threh> Unless you have a plan haha
[23:41] <gool> yeah
[23:41] <gool> check out the pm
[23:44] <SilverSlimer> hey guys, what social network do you guys use other than facebook? (i'm wondering if there's even one open-source social network that appeals to gnu/linux users)
[23:45] <threh> all the open source social networks are bullshit (mostly)
[23:45] <Ca11um> Terminal could be less obscure when a file doesn't have permission to execute, it just says "command not found"
[23:45] <threh> IRC and Twitter are all you need
[23:45] <gool> silver
[23:45] <Ben66> watch the language, and social networks are off topic here
[23:45] <wilee-nilee> !ot | SilverSlimer
[23:45] <threh> Sorry
[23:45] <gool> i only use twitter and github for programming/"hacking" networking, but hacking in terms of coding.
[23:46] <daftykins> people, that is offtopic talk
[23:46] <daftykins> if you'd like to chat about mytwitface, please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:48] <aldaek> if anyone has my issues (cannot upload samba due to samba permissions in gui, but not in smbclient), have them reinstall "nautilus nautilus-share".. it resets any saved passwords that might have been stored with the wrong creditionals permanently.
[23:48] <root_gnewsense_o> hi everyone, I have a user name who cannot use "xeyes" application for an example "no protocol specified, cannot open DISPLAY"
[23:48]  * aldaek is out.
[23:48] <wilee-nilee> !samba
[23:48] <geri> i extended my linux machine with an additional harddisk...just to store data.... its /dev/sdb ...should it be a primary or extended partition?
[23:48] <histo> root_gnewsense_o: are they in X ?
[23:49] <wilee-nilee> aldaek, has to be a wiki eh
[23:50] <root_gnewsense_o> I dont know what in X means
[23:50] <Sach> Anyone here with Pitivi experience? How do I know what to choose for my "video preset" and "audio preset" /
[23:51] <SilverSlimer> sorry about the social network talk, i'll see you guys in the offtopic channel.
[23:51] <geri> i extended my linux machine with an additional harddisk...just to store data.... its /dev/sdb ...should it be a primary or extended partition?
[23:51] <histo> root_gnewsense_o: are they in a GUI when they try to launch xeyes?
[23:52] <histo> root_gnewsense_o: xeyes is a graphical application you need Xorg to run it
[23:52] <histo> or an X server of some kind.
[23:55] <Sach> How do I open .mts files in Pitivi?
[23:56] <daftykins> Sach: " As long as it is supported by the GStreamer Multimedia Framework, PiTiVi will handle any format you throw at it."
[23:56] <delinquentme> so i'm trying to do a ./config and It needs a library ... which is right there in the directory im installing from
[23:57] <delinquentme> how do I pass in this as an argument?
[23:57] <daftykins> Sach: http://www.pitivi.org/manual/importingmpegts.html - How to convert .mts and .m2ts files to a format that can be parsed by GStreamer and PiTiVi.
[23:57] <daftykins> Sach: please try some research into your queries before bringing them on IRC
[23:58] <threh> Hello, pleased to report my backlight issue is fixed
[23:58] <threh> I should not have set "nomodeset"
[23:59] <threh> gool: the keys work too!
[23:59] <gool> chalk one up for the goolster
[23:59] <daftykins> ;]
[23:59] <gool> ;D
[23:59] <daftykins> if your case was unique is it documented online?
[23:59] <threh> I'm pretty happy about this, alright bye guys
