wilee-nileeHenix_Aurorus, You can't run that outside of windows it is just a folder in it.00:01
chocolatemoussewilee-nilee, wait, if he's using wubi, is that even going to be able to use the drivers?00:02
chocolatemoussewilee-nilee, won't Windows hang on to those?00:02
chocolatemousseI thought this was another machine00:02
chocolatemoussewubi is a VM, no?00:02
wilee-nileeno00:02
Henix_AurorusI'm transferring files between  OSes actually00:03
Henix_AurorusVia usb drive00:03
Henix_AurorusWhich both can access00:03
Henix_AurorusAlso00:03
wilee-nileeHenix_Aurorus, You have to have ubuntu in a partitioned install, wubi is just a file in windows.00:03
Henix_AurorusHttp://dl.dropbox.com/u/32386227/dpkg-lstring.txt00:03
raubIf we are talking about wireless card and drivers, my RTL8188CE-based Realtek keeps disconnecting me00:04
chocolatemoussewilee-nilee, Henix_Aurorus yeah it looks like its just an installer http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/install-ubuntu-with-windows00:04
chocolatemoussei thought it was a packaged VM image as well00:05
Henix_AurorusWilee-nilee: can't, hard drive has a abd sector00:05
Henix_AurorusSo I can't resize partitions or make new ones00:05
lovelymortalhttp://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php00:06
lovelymortalkeep it on hand00:06
Henix_AurorusSo wubi is my only option without completely wiping he hard drive00:06
MangaKaDenzaHALP00:06
MangaKaDenzaI tried mah drive with the ubunt00:06
wilee-nileeHenix_Aurorus, Just saying that you have to have windows to run wubi, which by the way is problematic, not really supported anymore, and has like one user at the ubuntu forum who can really help you. YOur explanation why makes no sence.00:06
MangaKaDenzabut it says...00:06
MangaKaDenzabootmngr not found00:06
MangaKaDenzawhere do I aquire bootmngr ???00:07
MangaKaDenzaplz halp00:07
lovelymortalmangakadenza try to install it again00:07
Henix_AurorusWilee-nilee: simply put, nothing will resize the partition to make room for a new one becuase of the bad sector00:07
MangaKaDenza?00:08
MangaKaDenzaI downloaded it to my thumbdriv00:08
usr13Henix_Aurorus: How about installing another Hard Drive?00:08
wilee-nileeMangaKaDenza, use this to run the bootinfo summary so we can see what is up post the url generated. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair00:08
MangaKaDenzaisn't that enough?00:08
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, wilee-nilee are you running Windows and Ubuntu simultaneiously?00:08
Henix_AurorusNot within my budget00:08
Henix_AurorusUnforutnately00:08
Henix_AurorusAlso, no00:08
duoiMangaKaDenza: reinstall it and make sure you check the option for GRUB00:08
chocolatemoussewilee-nilee, I think he needs working wireless before he can worry about much else00:09
chocolatemousseHe's on IRC right now with Windows00:09
chocolatemousseIf I'm right00:09
Henix_AurorusAnd one moment I need to restart androirc00:09
chocolatemousseok no he's on Android IRC00:09
lovelymortalmangakadenza  Did you make a live usb or did you just copy the iso to the thumbdrive00:09
MangaKaDenzayes00:10
MangaKaDenzaI did that00:10
MangaKaDenzacopy 2 thumb00:10
MangaKaDenzay?00:10

lovelymortalMangakadenza   http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows00:11
Henix_AurorusSory about that00:11
nnominatustes00:11
Henix_AurorusAndroirc gets a bit finicky in big channels like this00:11
Henix_AurorusAnd for the record I'm using my tablet for IRC00:11
lovelymortalMangakadenza follow the guide from the link i posted00:12
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, You should ask what Dr_Willis uses, he does IRC and doesn't seem to have much of a problem00:12
lovelymortalI used Pidgin00:12
chocolatemousselovelymortal, Pidgin doesn't exist on Android?00:12
Henix_AurorusNah, I think it's just memory restrictions or something00:13
lovelymortalIm sorry. I just saw that it was for android...00:13
Henix_AurorusIt works fine on other channels, it's the really big ones that are the problem00:13
Henix_AurorusThis is an older device00:13
kostkonHenix_Aurorus, try andChat00:13
Henix_AurorusHP TouchPad, probably 3-4 years old00:14
Dr_WillisI use andchat on Android for my main irc client00:14
Dr_WillisI use my phone or tablet (hot spotted to the phone) and a bluetooth keyboard most of the time.00:14
Dr_WillisIf i want to get fancy - i set up ZNC on the home pc. and use it as a bouncer for the phone00:15
nnominatusanyone have an idea why my ubuntu 12 cant seem to find my second monitor?00:16
chocolatemoussennominatus: you have to tell it to use it.00:16
nnominatusi told it to detect00:16
chocolatemoussennominatus: if you're using nvidia, you're lucky, its easy, if not you have to figure out how to get X to configure it00:16
chocolatemoussennominatus: use the nvidia-x-settings tool if you do have nvidia00:16
MangaKaDenzauh...00:16
MangaKaDenzaanything I don't have to install?00:17
Dr_Willisact6ually with my nvidia systems. I plug in the 2nd monitor and if using the nvidia drivers - it auto-enables twinview and activetes the monitor00:17
nnominatuschocolatemousse thankfully i have nvidia ill check it out00:17
MangaKaDenzalike, just download and run?00:17
chocolatemousseDr_Willis, nice, doesn't do that for me.00:17
Dr_Williscould be both of mine are on HDMI00:17

lovelymortalMangakadenza follow the guide www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windowswww.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows00:17
chocolatemousseDr_Willis, ah, yeah HDMI is considerably smarter than VGA, which is what I use00:17
lovelymortalMangakadenza you will need to install it and run the program then you will be able to boot from the usb00:18
MangaKaDenza;_;00:18
MangaKaDenzaI cant "install" anything per se00:18
MangaKaDenzamy parents won't give me admin access00:18
Plasmastarlol...00:18
lovelymortalMangakadenza I understand.00:18
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus: well if your ndiswrapper is installed, ndiswrapper should just work, I was doing some reading and there may be some problems with no Windows XP versions of drivers and NDISwrapper, but that was back in 2009, not sure how things have chaged.00:19
chocolatemoussechanged*00:19
chocolatemoussei.e. Windows Vista versions of drivers may have issues with NDISwrapper00:19
MangaKaDenzaso, what should I do lovelymortal ?00:20
lovelymortalMangakadenza Do you have friends with admin access to a windows or linux based pc?00:20
MangaKaDenzauh, I think so00:20
MangaKaDenzayeah00:20
MangaKaDenzaOh I get it00:20
Henix_AurorusI'll try instaling dkms in a moment00:20
MangaKaDenzaask them to install it00:20
Henix_AurorusSee if that does anything00:20
=== lone is now known as abd-allah
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, although if you got the output in step #3 that "driver installed", then that's probably a non-issue00:21
lovelymortalMangakadenza yes ask them to follow the guide. I would then get it on a usb and when you use your parents computer just use the "Try It Out" option. Once you get a feel for what you like I would look into a program called......      Remastersys00:21
Henix_AurorusGonna tyry anyway00:21
Dr_WillisYou can do a 'full' install to usb flash drives. :) if the pc can boot from them.00:22
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, also it could simply be that command is no longer valid00:22
CBRbillwhere is brent00:22
Dr_Willisactually witgh a rooted android phone or tablet. you can boot a pc from the phone with the right app. ;)00:22
nnominatuschocolatemousse know where I have to save this X config file in ubuntu 12?00:22
chocolatemousseI just downloaded ndiswrapper myself and I see there is no kernel module for ndiswrapper00:22

chocolatemoussennominatus /etc/X11/xorg.conf00:23
raubWhich is a better wireless card under ubuntu 13.04: intel 512AN (5100) or intel 533AN (5300)?00:23
pfifohello all00:23
chocolatemoussennominatus, sad that I know by heart ;)00:23
Henix_Aurorus...don't have dkms.00:23
Henix_AurorusDammit, I really hate OS juggling.00:23
chocolatemoussennominatus: your nvidia utility should just be able to save to your xorg.conf00:23
lovelymortalMangakadenza If you put enough enough research into ubuntu software and find out what you want to have then get the live usb to have the programs and settings that you like.... You can use Remastersys to creat an iso, Mount that iso to a usb and it will boot with your setting/passwords/username/wallpaper...etc00:23
nnominatuschocolatemousse i did a quick google and that didn't come up lol. Must have done this a signifcant amount of times00:23
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, try running sudo loadndisdriver00:24
lovelymortal@Henix_Aurorus get virtualbox00:24
Dr_WillisHeh - gotta love it when an Xorg log file.. sucks down 40gb.. ;()00:24
Dr_Williswondered where all my hd space went.00:25
Henix_AurorusNothing :|00:25
helpmepleasedoes anyone how to configure wine?00:25
CBRbillwhat do you need help with on wine00:25
Dr_Willisthey really really should do some service/tool to keep that from happening.00:25
chocolatemoussennominatus: its one of the more poorly documented factoids by Google00:25
Henix_AurorusIt didn't complain at least00:25
chocolatemoussennominatus: google is pretty spectacularly bad at some stuff ;)00:25
Henix_AurorusBut it didn't appear to do anything either00:25
pfifoDr_Willis, thats genius, a utility to keep you from running out of space, ill take 3 of them please00:26
CBRbillhelpmeplease: what do you need help with about the config. just msg it in the channel00:26
raubDr_Willis: I tell logrotate to keep them nice and gzipped and delete as needed00:26
CBRbillhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izkXuuCGKSA wow.. massive zit00:26
nnominatuschocolatemousse so the nvidia X server refuses to save to that location im going to manually put it there and hope i dont break something00:26

Dr_Willispfifo:  more of a utilty to see you are getting a stupidly massive log file.. it  was 41gb in size.00:26
helpmepleaseCBR bill i just am unsure how to configure wine00:26

abd-allahpls00:27

chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, after you run that, have you tried just skipping the sudo modprobe ndisdriver command?00:27
chocolatemoussewhat'st he output of iwconfig?00:27
raubDr_Willis: you now broke their little hearts ;)00:27
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  wine windowsapp.exe   and it should work. ;)00:27
Henix_AurorusLo no wireless extensions00:27
chocolatemoussennominatus: hmm00:27
mrdebhi00:27
helpmepleasehuh DR?00:27
chocolatemoussennominatus: run ll /etc/X11/xorg.conf00:28
mrdebwhen is ubuntu switching from wlan0/.eth000:28
Dr_Willisraub:  ;) yep.  id just cleaned out my hd  and had like 10 gb free a while ago. *like 2 hrs* came back.. hd was full again.00:28
helpmepleaseyou have to configure it?00:28
abd-allah@Dr_Willis pls00:28
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  whats to configure.. I rarely need to mess with anything00:28
chocolatemoussennominatus, also try running gksu nvidia-x-settings00:28
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  wine auto configures for me for the most part. unless theres a specific problem with a specific app  you want to tell us about00:28
pfifochocolatemousse, ll, cool trick00:28
chocolatemousseIt might be able to write then ;)00:28
helpmepleasewell do i have to put the application it is windows based into the applications tab00:28
nnominatuschocolatemousse its probably because im not logged in as the admin atm i suspect00:28
chocolatemoussepfifo: alias for ls -la00:28
helpmepleasethat is00:29
abd-allahhow to take snapshot on ubuntu?00:29
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  you mean you just want a ICON to launch a wine app?00:29
chocolatemoussepfifo: I suggest learning about aliases ;)00:29
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  thats not really 'configuring wine'00:29
kostkonhelpmeplease, just run its installer and wine will do the rest00:29
helpmepleaseo okay00:29
helpmepleaseso all i have to do is run the other program and it will work?00:29
kostkonhelpmeplease, does it come as a setup.exe00:29
pfifochocolatemousse, i know about aliases, just dont know them00:29
chocolatemoussepfifo: then I suggest reading your .bash_rc00:29
nnominatuschocolatemousse the old copy and restart had a very interesting effect00:29
chocolatemousseless ~/.bash_rc00:29
chocolatemousseor somesuch00:29
Henix_AurorusBrb00:30
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:    wine thewindowssetup.exe00:30
helpmepleaseis wine  winetricks?00:30
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  and it should work for most apps00:30
Dr_Williswinetricks is a specific tool to setup some things in wine.00:30
abd-allahhey?00:30
Dr_Willis!screenshot | abd-allah00:30
ubottuabd-allah: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it.00:30
helpmepleasehere i took a screen shot00:31
pfifochocolatemousse, not much there, and subject to change00:31
abd-allahthanks00:31
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  a screen shot of what? You havent really given us a problem or any details00:31
chocolatemoussepfifo: no, its a user configuration file, not really subject to change00:31
kostkonhelpmeplease, wine installs the app in a pseudo windows fs in ~/.wine, then it extracts the icon file from the .exe files and creates a desktop launcher/shortcut out of them for you00:31
abd-allahcan i backup my whole ubuntu system with apps and updates.?00:31
chocolatemoussepfifo, if ll isn't in there, then its in a bashrc somewhere00:31
pfifochocolatemousse, changing users is enough to make all your aliases change00:31
Dr_Willisabd-allah:  you can 'clone' a ubuntu install - correct.00:31
Henix_AurorusBack, I guess00:32
Dr_Willis!backup00:32
ubottuThere are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning00:32
chocolatemoussepfifo: not system level ones00:32
L-samahello, I need help for networking with ubuntu and windows00:32
Dr_Willis!samba | L-sama00:32
ubottuL-sama: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.00:32
chocolatemoussepfifo: anyways you aren't going to learn them till you use them00:32
helpmepleasehttp://imageshack.us/content_round.php?page=done&id=4tHclKSplaGqlKSc36jSmunS3A00:32
abd-allahDr_Willis:how to clone?00:32
pfifochocolatemousse, ll is a good one, about the only one ill use from my bashrc00:33
Dr_Willisabd-allah:  seen the urls the bot gave above. I rarely bother with cloning a full install.00:33
chocolatemoussepfifo: I learn by (attempting) to help out here, and fixing/using quirks on my system00:33
L-samaDrWillis, I already have acces to the workgroup and the computers, however I am unable to access their shared drives00:33
Dr_Willisabd-allah:  clonezilla can do it however.00:33
pfifochocolatemousse, same here00:33
chocolatemoussepfifo: you may find you want to alias some complex command in future00:33
IDWMasterHi00:33
chocolatemoussepfifo: good thing to keep tabs on00:33
nnominatuschocolatemousse gksu ran but seemingly did nothing i amnow getting a white screen that i can change settings for but cannot interact with.00:33
IDWMasterUbuntu download site is really slow today, is there an alternate mirror that can be used?00:33
chocolatemoussennominatus: screenie?00:33
IDWMasterBitTorrent is blocked in my country (illegal) so I can't use that as a download mechanism.00:34
chocolatemoussennominatus, what you said didn't make much sense00:34
pfifoIDWMaster, yes there are hundreds of mirrors00:34
helpmepleasethere are only three wine applications wine tricks wine configuration and win unstall00:34
beejunIDWMaster:  what country?00:34
Henix_AurorusIDWMaster: technically BitTorrent isn't illegal, it's what it's commonly used for that is00:34
chocolatemoussepfifo: or alternatively you may want to remember complex commands by writing them down somewhere, might as well put them in a location e.g. as an alias00:34
L-samaDr_Willis , I already have acces to the workgroup and the computers, however I am unable to access their shared drives00:35
pfifoIDWMaster, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors00:35
IDWMasterHenix_Aurorus: It's blocked by my ISP anyways; so still can't use BitTorrent00:35
chocolatemoussepfifo: or if aliases really aren't your thing you can just do like I do and write one-liners into ~/bin, and ~/bin to path00:35
IDWMasterThanks pfifo00:35
helpmepleasedoes wine only work with apps?00:35
nnominatuschocolatemousse yeah so when i copied xorg.conf to /etc/X11/ and restarted the screen showed the background then went white.00:35
helpmepleaseor will it work with programs too?00:35
chocolatemoussee.g. I run 'upgradesys' instead of the very verbose 'sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get update'00:35
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: What's the difference?00:36
Adam-85i have question about uuid?00:36
helpmepleaseidw what do you mean?00:36
=== Nisstyre-laptop is now known as nisstyre
helpmepleaseo i am stupid lol00:36
IDWMasterOK00:36
Adam-85and this question is how to change my uuid and update it in fstab00:36
IDWMasterDownload done, thanks00:36
chocolatemoussennominatus: I'd suggest making the nvidia-x-settings panel work, not editing it by hand. Unless you know what you're doing its usually a recipe for problems.00:36
pfifochocolatemousse, I have never made my own alias, but I like that ll, its so logical, I should drop an alis in for my common typo, "ls-la" to "ls -la"00:36
helpmepleaseit will only allow me to download certain programs?00:37
chocolatemoussepfifo: why not?00:37
chocolatemoussealias ll='ls -la'00:37
pfifochocolatemousse, you should use dist-upgrade00:37
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: No, you can use any Windows app that you want00:37
chocolatemoussetakes 5 secs to write00:37
nnominatuschocolatemousse yeah it just told me to set the second screen to relative position00:37
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: As long as all the required dlls are there (emulated)00:37
chocolatemoussepfifo: doesn't that upgrade the system though? i.e. to a new system?00:37
helpmepleaseit is not giving me that option ?00:37
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: What do you mean?00:37
chocolatemousseand it still requires typing a lot of apt-get garbage00:37
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: To run a Windows executable, simply type00:38
IDWMasterwine program.exe00:38
IDWMasterwhere program is the name of the program you want to run00:38
IDWMasterat a terminal00:38
pfifochocolatemousse, no, dist-upgrade will install new packages that are required for updated packages, upgrade will hold back packages.00:38
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, how are you doing? I haven't seen anything from you in a while00:38
nnominatuschocolatemousse thats definitely good advice i have a currently hacked together network connection that I will never be able to debug lol00:38
helpmepleaseso for example wine manycam win program.exe?00:38
Henix_AurorusSame deal00:39
Henix_AurorusStill a nonfunctional network cars00:39
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: For example: wine manycam.exe00:39
helpmepleaseo lol00:39
IDWMasterin the directory where manycam.exe resides00:39
chocolatemoussepfifo: hmm, I'll change my upgrade sys alias/script then00:39
sam113101guys, is there a way to grep some file but instead of printing only the lines that contain the string, also print the lines around them? say the 2 lines above and under00:40
helpmepleaseso if i know there is a dll version of manycam what would i type in terminal to install it?00:40
IDWMasterI'm in the US by the way; a country that doesn't value Internet freedom very much these days. If Comcast catches you using BitTorrent (even for legal purposes) they will cut off your connection.00:40
chocolatemoussepfifo: although I'm still hesitant to actually do that because not dist-upgrading has saved my @ss before when the system wanted to upgrade to an ubuntu version that I had a better non-ubuntu version installed00:40
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: dlls are libraries, not executable programs (usually). You shouldn't need to manually "run" a DLL00:40
Johnny_LinuxIDWMaster  go with dls then00:40
Henix_AurorusIDWMaster: never had that issue00:40
bogen_hello everyone00:40
helpmepleaseone second00:40
Johnny_Linuxscamcast is junk anyway00:41
chocolatemoussepfifo: one of those 'less is more' moments ;)00:41
IDWMasterComcast is the only ISP available in my area00:41
Henix_AurorusUse FIOS, they don't do it00:41
Henix_Aurorus...oh00:41
pfifochocolatemousse, I like to read the entire list of stuff thats being upgraded/installed, usually save it in a log too so I can reference it later when stuff breaks00:41
Johnny_Linuxim sure your phone company has dsl if you have cable in your area00:41
helpmepleaseit is an mce file?00:41
chocolatemoussepfifo: good idea! Now that I could definitely add to my upgradesys script00:41
IDWMasterJohnny_Linux: Such bad DSL it doesn't work for any more than 5 minutes at a time00:42
chocolatemousseRight now I think it trys to e-mail them to a non-existent system address.00:42
IDWMasterJohnny_Linux: Worse than old-fashined dial-up00:42
IDWMaster*fashioned00:42
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, hrm, did you try running iwconfig?00:42
Henix_AurorusYes00:42
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, say anything about any network devices?00:42
Johnny_Linuxinteresting, i have prolly the best dls in the country, never drops, has higher than priced speed00:42
Henix_AurorusNope00:42
IDWMasterJohnny_Linux: CenturyLink (formerly Qwest) is the only one in my area; really terrible service. Although I've heard it's better in a lot of other areas.00:43
helpmepleaseidw i typed in winemanycam.exe and it says command not found?00:43
Henix_AurorusAlso one moment please00:43
Johnny_LinuxIDWMaster  maybe try your own router, the oem ones have alot of ware thats garbage00:43
IDWMasterhelpmeplease: You need a space00:43
IDWMasterwine manycam.exe00:43
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus, sorry, I don't think I can help you further then. If A) NDISwrapper doesn't work B) try to find an open source driver or C) use a wifi usb or wired ethernet00:44
helpmepleaseo okay00:44
Johnny_LinuxIDWMaster  i have century link, have had them 8 yrs, zero problems00:44
helpmepleasei just downloaded the file and it says cannot fine L"C:00:44
Johnny_Linuxbut i also use a D-Link router00:44
chocolatemousseHenix_Aurorus: still looking up one other command I can thing of just incase iwconfig is broken00:44
mrdebare drivers ever dropped from kernel00:44
IDWMasterJohnny_Linux: In my area; they have horrible service. Think it's because the phone lines are really old or something. Either way; it's not possible to try and do online business with their service in my particular area.00:45
Johnny_Linuxcould be00:45
helpmepleasewine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\manycam.exe"00:45
IDWMasterJohnny_Linux: I can download 100MBPS with Comcast's new business fiber plan00:45
Johnny_Linuxscamcast is too pc00:45
pfifochocolatemousse, i like 'sudo rfkill'00:45
mrdebIDWMaster: 100mb?00:45

helpmepleasepfifo the reason i need a program like manycam is because i was infected with a virus that has left my webcam stuck upside down, so that is what i am trying to fix01:03

OerHeksI think wubi.exe can cause this flipping webcam.01:09
pfifohelpmeplease, seems there are lots of different fixes for this problem depending on your camera and laptop... seems the manufacturers accidentally install them upside down and just fix it in the windows drivers01:10
chocolatemoussepfifo, good point, and linux is just doing what's 'correct'01:10
helpmepleaseDr_Willis should i call Ubuntu and tell them that some of the people that are in here are smart asses and just make fun of people?01:10
helpmepleasethank you pfifo01:10
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  i suggest you focus on the support topic.01:10
helpmepleaseyea cause you know i am right....01:11
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, go ahead, but I suggest you stick to the support topic, as Dr_Willis suggested01:11
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  your claims about windows viruses affecting teh cam in linux. are basically invalid.01:11
helpmepleaseokay one more thing how is you making fun of me support topic related?01:12

Johnny_Linuxdo you hve jupiter installed ?01:15
adzyhi. hoping someone here can help me out with a strange problem. i'm using smartd to monitor the smart status of my disks (zfs file server) and send out an email in the event of an error. if i run "smartctl -a -d sat /dev/sda >> msg" in terminal, it works as expected. but if smartd runs a sh script containing the exact same line, the body of the email is "ERROR: smartctl rquires a device name as the final command-line argument". Anyone 01:16
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, that is a Windows 7 support topic01:16
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, this is #ubuntu01:16
helpmepleasechocolate if you would read before you speak! i said it is stuck upside down in ubuntu as well!01:16
pfifochocolatemousse, what program under ubuntu do you use the webcam for?01:16
Johnny_Linuxsounds bogus to me, nice try tho,01:16
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, I'm sure it is01:16
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  theres 'webcamstudio' that can do all sorts of neat realtime effects to a webcam strream and presents itself as a 'virtual webcam' to other software01:16
chocolatemoussepfifo: I forego the whole webcam-in-a-laptop thing actually, I would not hesitate to destroy one if I came into ownership of such a thing01:17
chocolatemoussepfifo: but thats !ot01:17
chocolatemousseDr_Willis already made a good suggestion to use cheese01:17
adzyanyone?01:18
helpmepleasetried cheese01:18
pfifoadzy, you may need a shebang in the script (!#/bin/bash) the daemon may run with a weird shell or other unusual configurations01:18
Dr_Willistried cheese to do what? :)01:18
helpmepleasei am going to try webcam studio01:18
raubchocolatemousse: electrical tape works fine too ;)01:18
chocolatemousseraub: still, there's a micas well01:18
Dr_Willismost all the webcam software ive seen/used supportes some sort of fliping or rotateing the video in the apps settings01:18
chocolatemousseraub: and tape can come off, and it can still be used to measure light levels01:18
adzypfifo, the script starts with #! /bin/bash01:19
helpmepleaseDr yes but if you look on the internet most are for recording01:19
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  and what are you doing exactly?  ive not heard the core of the problem mentioned01:19
Johnny_Linuxwanting attention01:19
adzydoes it matter that there's a space between #! and /bin/bash?01:19
helpmepleaseDr. that my webcam is stuck upside down that is the core of the problem lol01:19
pfifoadzy, no01:19
helpmepleaseand apparently webcamstudio i can not find a download page01:20
raubchocolatemousse: you have a point there01:20
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, nonsense - if you use cheese and use the 'flip video' feature, its easy to 'fix'01:20
helpmepleasechocolate will that allow me to show my screen too?01:20
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, what are you trying to do exactly? Just use the webcam?01:20
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  but i just said most all the software out there can rotate it.. so whats teh problem? you select rotate..01:20
helpmepleasegrr... i want to use it for two things i need my screen flipped but i also want to be able to broadcast my desktop01:21
Johnny_Linuxblah blah01:22
pfifochocolatemousse, Ive never found a good solution for steraming desktop, ive only heard webcamstudio as the proposed solution, but its going to be hard for you to install, and may not work correctly.01:22
chocolatemoussepfifo: TeamViewer?01:22
chocolatemousseVNC?01:22
chocolatemousseSkype?01:22
helpmepleasechocolate teamviewer is a remote desktop tool.. for one01:22
helpmeplease2 i need it for a chat room not skype01:23
chocolatemoussethis is less and less an ubuntu question but, the VNC will work for multiple people01:23
pfifochocolatemousse, I have a feeling hes streaming movies and video games to his friends, ive been down this road, I dont have a solution after lots and lots of trying01:23
chocolatemousseassuming the server works, stream to an capable multicast server01:23
chocolatemoussepfifo: yeah probably01:24
chocolatemoussepfifo, best solution is to have a really beefy computer01:24
helpmepleaseno it is not choco because i am asking for a program that is linux based that will allow me to flip my screen and broadcast my screen01:24
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, your screen or your webcam?01:25
chocolatemousseyour screen should not be upside down either01:25
helpmepleasemy webcam01:25
Dr_Willisvlc - desktop streaming --> http://grok.lsu.edu/article.aspx?articleId=1462501:25
helpmepleaseDr but can i use vlc in a chat room?01:25
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, sure, post a link to the server01:25
adzyokay, so the email works if i use smartctl -a /dev/sda but not if use smartctl -a -d sat /dev/sda. no idea why, but as long as it works...01:25
pfifohelpmeplease, Ive been able to get some luck with recordmydesktop and flash media server, but I couldnt get sound, and I have never tried with a webcam as well. Windows is really the easiest way to do this01:25
helpmepleaseor can i only stream to one person ?01:25
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, lookup multicast01:25
chocolatemousseudp multicast01:25
chocolatemousseYour biggest problem is going to be bandwidth, which is why you typically will want to invest in a server that someone else owns01:26
chocolatemousseOr get some really, really nice interenet01:26
chocolatemousseAnd a really nice computer01:26
pfifochocolatemousse, there are plenty of free services already01:26
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, and its not really #ubuntu, this is more #multimedia01:26
pfifochocolatemousse, ustream.tv was my choice01:27
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, we can recommend some services and applications, but not support them.01:27
chocolatemousseand as pfifo says there are plenty of services that do this already01:27
helpmepleasechoco that is all i am asking for is applications for webcam that are linux based01:27
helpmepleasechoco i looked before i cam to ask and i found that most of them are for recording01:28
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, Dr_Willis already recommended one01:28
helpmepleasemulticast?01:28
chocolatemousseustream.tv does not work?01:28
Johnny_Linuxcheese01:28
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, you'll need to know how to setup a server if you want to use multicast01:28
chocolatemoussethis is a #multimedia question01:28
chocolatemousseand possibly #internet01:28
helpmepleaseokay i will install cheese01:29
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, or just use ustream.tv01:29
Dr_Willishttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/06/how-to-broadcast-your-ubuntu-desktop-and-more-on-ustream-justin-tv-etc01:29

helpmepleaseyea that is what i said01:30
helpmepleaseand cheese sounds like it is a webcam recording application01:31
Dr_Willishelpmeplease:  and what are you usign your webcam in exactly then? some web-flash-chat? if so - the flash settings on the site may have some options01:31
helpmepleaseyes DR willis and the chat does not i checked01:32
chocolatemoussehelpmeplease, flipping video is a dead simple operation, so I'd recommend A) find an application you like B) consult the application makers for more support if you can't find their 'flip video' option01:32
Dr_Willisat one time i rember  using webcamstudio and it would let me switch btween broadcasting my desktop. or the 'real' camera feed, or video clips..01:33
helpmepleasechoco what do u think i am trying to do! i am trying to find an application that is linux based01:33
abd-allahDo I need Wine to run Playonlinux?01:34
Dr_WillisIf the web site uses its own thing.. then you have to use that web sites stuff.  (flash most likely)01:34
chocolatemousseabd-allah, PlayOnLinux IS wine01:34
helpmepleaseDr there is no webcam studio download and there is nothing on the site...01:34
Dr_Willisabd-allah:  i belive play-on-liniux includes its own wine variants/tweaks. so  it should ihnclude wine as needed01:34

Dr_Williscrypticmofo:  most window managers add a session entry to the lightdm session list01:41
fudusclick the little ubuntu logo and you can choose another session01:42
Dr_WillisNo idea if i3 does or not. shouldebt ne too hard to make a session for  i301:42
crypticmofoDr_Willis: once i run dpkg-reconfigure lightdm it didn't do anything .. did it change on its own ?01:43
Dr_Williscrypticmofo:  lightdm is the LOGIN SCREEN   if you just want a new desktop session  - you dont need to change the default Login screen.01:44

helpmepleaseon the site you gave me if you scrolled down it said for ubuntu users01:47
Dr_Willisthat site lists a PPA. You just need to enable the ppa and install ig via the packge manager01:47
Dr_Willisthat makes it even easier01:47

helpmepleaseit did not automatically install for me01:48
pfifohelpmeplease, yes, using a ppa is easier than installing a deb package manually01:48
Dr_Willisyou should enable the PPA and install it that way. that way it will stay updated01:48
fudusit'll load in software centre and there will be an install button in top right01:48
markdinhhi, how do i remove the root permission from the person who installed the ubuntu box01:49

abaddonphix, as far as I'm aware, I haven't any02:13
phixabaddon: ok, what filesystem is it? ext2/3/4, xfs,jfs, reiserfs?02:14

Cache_Money1wilee-nilee: oh nice. thx02:15
abaddonphix, is this a pkg I need t9o install?02:16
phixabaddon: alternatively if you don't care about recovering any data and just want to reinstall the package then just reinstall it and get the default files in there02:16
phixabaddon: do you care about the data you lost? or you just want to get the thing working and dont mind reconfiguring from scratch02:17

abd-allahThanks all. bye02:27
abaddonphix, but apt has the sources list to pull pkgs02:28
phixabaddon: ok so just recover it then, use testdisk or manually create a /etc/apt/sources.list file and reinstall apt02:28
OerHekslgc sounds broken, or you have hit the touchpad/ext mouse key on your laptop02:28
Dr_Willislgc:  you hit that fn-touchpad on/off combo/key and turned it off perhaps? or it broke02:28
Nicknamee"sell short market"02:28
phixabaddon: but really you should of backed that up, or used something like etckeeper (although version control != backing up_02:28
phix)02:29
abaddonphix, will it run fine missing the other stuff if I were to just add a sources list?02:29
lgcOerHeks: Dr_Willis Is there a button to disable the touchpad?02:29

lgcOerHeks, Dr_Willis: and I just brought it back to function. Thanks!02:31
OerHekshave fun02:31
lgcOerHeks: You bet!02:31
phixabaddon: try and use testdisk first, which will require you creating a /etc/apt/sources.list file manually (deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring main restricted universe multiverse), then recover the files in /etc/apt02:31
abaddonphix, know where I can just dl an full apt folder??02:32
phixabaddon: you can trust it but apt will complain02:32
phixabaddon: no as the folder is different depending on what applications you have installed02:32
Dr_Willis'full' would be like.. several TB ;)02:32
abaddonphix, yeah but that should be updateable?02:32

Dr_Willisif it dosent compalain it should work abaddon  ;)02:48
abaddonphix, i did this mainly cause i'm lazy but also wanted to see what'd happen02:48
Dr_Willison a small home lan - that 'apt-cacher-ng' service is handy to setup02:48
abaddonDr_Willis,  sofar not a peep. hapily upgradeing02:48
abaddon=p02:49
phixabaddon: umm you may want to ensure the permissions are set correctly02:49

=== BTCOxygen|1 is now known as BTCOxygen
abaddonphix, how so??02:49
phixDr_Willis: what does that do?02:50
phixabaddon: because dropbox doesn't retain filesystem permissions02:50
abaddonDr_Willis,  Hey, does acpi handle the fan on a gpu?02:50
Dr_Willisphix:  it works as a apt- caching system so every pc ont he lan gets the files from it.. saveing downloads if you got more then 1 pc02:50
SikReally stupid question: using Ubuntu 12.04 here (with GNOME classic), where is the button to upgrade to newer versions?02:50
SarahXrip bill Cosby02:50
ace_hello02:50
abaddonphix, riight??? meaning?02:50
ace_linux rules02:51
Dr_WillisSik:  you want to upgrade to 12.10?02:51
Dr_Willis!upgrade02:51
ubottuFor upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade02:51
sysmonnHi02:51
ace_assemble + microcodes02:51
phixDr_Willis: oh cool, something I want, although I would like it to do debian as well as ubuntu02:51
sysmonnHi, I have a filename contain "THIS IS A TEST", how could I filter the 1st and 2nd column of it using AWK. so the output will be just "THIS IS", thanks02:51
SarahXdoes Linux have an active directory alternative?02:51
phixabaddon: you know what filesystem permissions are right?02:51
sysmonnI could only print the 1st column.02:51
abaddonsik, type in sudo apt-get dist-upgrade in terminal. Ithink that's the command anyway02:51
Dr_Willissysmonn:  are we doing your homework for you? ;)02:52
sysmonnnot at all Dr_Willis02:52
rww!dist-upgrade02:52
ubottuA dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention.02:52
sysmonnim just confused.02:52
phixsysmonn: ummm is this question 1 or 2 on your assignment sheet?02:52
SikDr_Willis: update manager doesn't show me the newest version, that's why I ask :/02:52
sysmonnwell I can just do the single line or specific column, but trying to get 1st and 2nd.02:52
SikThough may have been a fluke, I should recheck02:52
nerdtronphix, file permissions are not retained in dropbox....windows clients don't understand persmisisons02:52
Dr_WillisSik:  thats because it willonly show the next LTS version if you are on LTS02:52
abaddonphix, if you're saying that the sys says it doesn't own the folder then yes. I checked before hand though and it said owned by the correct user02:52
Dr_WillisSik:  unless you tell it otherwise02:52
SikDr_Willis: oh... well, no wonder (12.04 is LTS)02:53
phixnerdtron: I know, which is why I suggested that abaddon ensure the filesystem permissions are correct on the /etc/apt folder as he copied it from dropbox02:53
SikShould I just wait for the next LTS? Though I'm trying to update to see if that fixes Anthy... >.<'02:53
phixabaddon: so /etc/apt is owned by root?02:53
Dr_WillisSik:  deends on what you problem is. 13.04 is also out now.. and 13.10 is due out  on the 10th monthj02:54
sblsdgfsdwhats a good sound card that is solid in Linux?02:54
Dr_WillisSik:  test with a live cd.02:54
phixsblsdgfsd: my onboard one works fine in linux02:54
markdinhWhen i create useradd -home /home/dev dev,  when dev logs in, he still doesn't have a default home dir?02:54
SikI thought 13.10 was out already and next was 14.04 /o\ Dr_Willis: CD drive busted :x Also Anthy was working until a recent Python update02:55
rwwmarkdinh: see the first line of the manpage and use adduser instead02:55
Dr_WillisSik:  version # is the year/monthj02:55
abaddonphix, huh...I didn't check that part.... >.> just checked in db. still, doesn't root technically own everything in a sense and have permission to access folders owned by a user?02:55
SikDr_Willis: well, that explains the .04 and .10 version numbers o_O02:55
abaddonphix, because the system is updateing fine?02:55
sblsdgfsdphix: does it crackle at all or pop?02:55
phixsblsdgfsd: I actually have two soundcards in this computer, one is integrated in my videocard (for HDMI sound) and the other is inbuilt into the north or south bridge chip on the motherboard02:55
abaddonphix, sorry, it's now upgradeing02:56
sblsdgfsdphix: i just bought some Bose speakers and they crackle pop every once in awhile02:56
=== Sphen is now known as sphen
phixsblsdgfsd: crackling and popping is an anologue interference thing usually, the digital audio (HDMI) sounds perfect02:56
Dr_Willisive had cellphones near my pc - cause speakers to crackle and pop.. right befor i get a call. ;)02:56
markdinhrww thanks a lot02:56
OerHeksBose boxes on a 20 cent wire do not perform well02:57
phixsblsdgfsd: Are you using an optical cable to connect to your amp or copper?02:57
sblsdgfsdphix: i think it is analog02:58
sblsdgfsdphix: damn i need to take these back02:58
sblsdgfsdphix: 100 bucks for crackle speakers02:58
abaddonsblsdgfsd, it could be pulseaudsio02:59
phixsblsdgfsd: Does it have an optical input?  or are you using a crappy cable to plug to your computer? or does the wire going from the computer to the amp travel through a bunch of power cables or a microwave oven?02:59
abaddonsblsdgfsd, remove it and see if ALSA alone does fine02:59
Dr_Willisive also seen some sound cards make a pop or crackle right when they startup. from being slient for a while due to a power saveing mode02:59
Dr_Willistest with some other live cd's and dis4rtos see if it happens in them all also.02:59

abaddonsblsdgfsd, before sending them back try sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio && sudo apt-get install ALSA03:01
phixsblsdgfsd: ok, try connecting different devices to it and see if it still crackles03:01
phixsblsdgfsd: ignore abaddon03:02
phixabaddon: There are alot more less dangerous tests that can be performed first03:02
abaddonsblsdgfsd, phix, much of my audio issues have come from pulseaudio03:02
abaddonphix, sblsdgfsd Dangerous? You're kidding right?03:03
Dr_Willisremoveing pulse audio - fromw hat ive seen in here = user ends up reinstalling the system later.03:03
phixabaddon: If your car doesn't start do you take out the motor and strip it down? or just look at the fuel gauge and confirm that your nextdoor neighbour is stealing your petrol again?03:03
sblsdgfsdphix: my monitor has built in speakers and i was using those before and they play fine03:03
Dr_Willisany time ive ever seen someone do a 'remove pulse audio'   for any reason - is normally a very bad sign. ;)03:03
OerHeksabaddon removing the ~/.pulseaudio folder can help, removal is not logical.03:04
phixabaddon: yes dangerous as you are getting into an advanced topic03:04
sblsdgfsdill try a reboot and let you know03:04
sblsdgfsdmaybe i just need to reboot03:04
abaddonphix, sblsdgfsd Dr_Willis  pulse is like an overlay to ALSA adding extra features. if it doesn't fix the issue all he has to do is reinstall it03:04
phixabaddon: and not easy to recover from, especially if you don't backup your system files :)03:04

crypticmofooh ok03:10
crypticmofoso install it phix  ?03:10

phixcrypticmofo: I am not talking about your BIOS, I am talking about the function keys on your keyboard / buttons on your laptop that enabled / disables it03:10
sblsdgfsdphix: its definately linux because i just plugged the speakers into my android phone and it plays fine03:11
sblsdgfsdphix: or some kind of interference on my motherboard03:11
phixcrypticmofo: Couldn't hurt, although not sure if it allows you to save defaults that presist over a reboot, try it and see I suppose :)03:11

Cache_Money1?05:13
Dr_Willisi cant recall using nohup anytime in the last fewe years..05:13
Dr_Willisunless i was running somtning, then logging out05:13
varunendralgc, when playing the video on VLC, try "Tools > Codec Info" from the menu to get the codec info. Or tell us directly if you know already.05:15
Dr_Willishttp://www.unix.com/solaris/13924-whats-difference-nuhup-cmds-vs-cmds.html05:15
lgcDr_Willis, Cache_Money1, nohup is a way to leave processes unattended and independent of the terminal. Therefore you can log out and the process keeps running, sending all its output to nohup.out.05:16

reisioChaosweaver: or you could use Fedora with Unity, probably05:55
reisioor Fedora with GNOME 3, or just Fedora with something :p05:55
Chaosweaverahhh, but my problem with that is i already started learning lots of debian commands05:55

varunendrareisio for a 2010 Dual Core laptop processor, yes.05:59

reisioChaosweaver: not any that matters05:59

reisioall the big distros have about 20,000 more packages than you'll ever use05:59
Chaosweaverokay.  i heard "learn gentoo, learn them all"  - is that true?06:00
tozenChaosweaver: what 4 to learn? Much better to have text file or printed folder, pal ;)06:00
varunendrareisio, not nearly as high as it would mean for h264, but yes close to xvid.06:00
reisioChaosweaver: not exactly06:00
reisioChaosweaver: you would theoretically learn more about many things each distro shares, but06:00
reisioChaosweaver: you would only learn about Gentoo's package management06:00
reisioChaosweaver: and package management is the most important bit to learn06:00
reisiofor any particular distro06:00
reisioif you wanted to learn the most, you'd want to do an LFS, but that's somewhat of a commitment, and it still wouldn't teach you about each distro's package manager06:01
Dr_Willis'know your enemy' ;)06:01
Dr_WillisLFS teaches you how to read/cut/paste and  compile...06:01
reisioonce you know the basic ideas behind package management, and have them mastered for one distro, it's easier to use any other distro06:01
Dr_Willisand wait.06:01
Chaosweaveri see06:02
Dr_Willistheres a lot of unusual disrtos out there.. LFS is at one branch of the tree. Things like Puppylinux, tinycore  are at a differnt end. and then ubuntu and so forth are more of a main branch ;)06:03
Chaosweaverwhats a more cli driven distro?06:03
reisiobecause you can ask yourself or the internet "how do I do FOO from distro BAR... instead with distro BAZ?"06:03

Chaosweaverso dr willis, what u are saying, its that they are all hax and its simply up to my personal pref which one i think is prettiest if my hardware is good enough for their guis06:04
Dr_Williseven the guis are  normally the same 'program' just with differnt configurations.06:05
Dr_WillisUbuntu has Unity - which is a Ubuntu 'creation' ;) but gnome shell on all the distros should be almost the same06:05
reisioyou can install Unity on any distro, too06:05
reisioLFS is actually a process, not really a distro06:06
reisiothough it _has_ its own distros, which confuses things06:06
Dr_Williswell 'any' may be a bit broad. ;) but - installing it.. and having it work well - are 2 very differnt things06:06
reisioit might be involved to install it on some distros :)06:06
Dr_Willisi recall reading the LFS docs and starting to try it.. but finished the docs.. and decided i had learned enough. dident need to installit.06:06
reisiorm is the best package manager06:07
Chaosweaverso from as far back as i can remember (dos 3.30), ive always had to install a driver for most stuffs or it just didnt work.  and it was always very easy to find out if i had a driver issue b/c stuff just didnt work.  in windows i go to device manager and i can see a hardware id, driver, or unknown device.  in linux it all seems to be hidden somewhere.  how can i find what drivers are being used06:09
Chaosweaverand if there is an issue?06:09
reisioChaosweaver: well you already know there's an issue06:09
Dr_Willisi rarely even need to worry about drivers in linux. except for video card and wireless. and even then  - often i rarely have to even touch wireless ;P06:09
reisioChaosweaver: you could compare the Fedora and Ubuntu outputs of lspci -k06:09
reisioChaosweaver: or the outputs of 'lsmod'06:10
Dr_Willissome times i dont even need to mess with video drivers06:10
Dr_Willisjust because theres no 'gui' tool to show info - dosent make it hidden. things are MUCH more hidden in windows then in linux i find.06:10

yapreisio, thx will look06:16
reisioChaosweaver: man command opens the man(ual) page for that command06:17
Dr_WillisChaosweaver:  one shows the man page.. other is the programs built in help06:17
reisioChaosweaver: command --help runs the command, and if that executable was given a help output, it outputs that06:17
Dr_Willisnot all commands have good --help06:17

varunendrajoakimk, for now, please try -  echo "options iwlwifi swcrypto=1 bt_coex_active=N" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf06:57
varunendrajoakimk, the above will create a .conf file that will load the driver with two parameters. If they don't help, you may try two more things.06:57
helmut_hi06:58
reisioDr_Willis: you meant to say mp4 in that last one?06:58
reisiohelmut_: hi06:58
joakimkvarunendra: so, that replaces the conf file?06:58
varunendrajoakimk, if it already exists, yes. Let me see in your output..06:58
=== tilal6991|away is now known as tilal6991
=== phiwo_ is now known as phiwo
=== dziegler_off is now known as dziegler
varunendrajoakimk, doesn't look like you already have a conf file for the driver (which is normal).07:00
joakimkoh, ok :) so, next time I boot, I'll "use" that conf file?07:00
varunendrajoakimk, yes. Or if you unload --> reload the driver07:01
Dr_Willisreisio:  some times the webm is smaller. some times the reencoded mp4 is smaller.   guess it dpeends on whats in the video.07:02
reisioDr_Willis: by how much?07:02
Dr_Willisfor a 25 min show. often 20-50 mb. 10-25%07:02
varunendrajoakimk, the test you did suggests you are not getting N-channel speeds anyway, so 1) you can disable it in both the router, and the driver, 2) you can try changing the channel in the router to 1 or 11 (currently it is channel 4) - they usually work better with Linux. I hope you won't need it though.07:02
Gsportchange to channel 1307:03
reisioDr_Willis: that seems pretty negligible to me07:04
reisioDr_Willis: I guess I'd compare the audio first, though07:04
reisioyou can actually target specific sizes if you want07:04
joakimkvarunendra: I'll look into that, thanks a lot! However, any idea why it helps to toggle the wifi hardware switch?07:04
Dr_Willisfor the wifes tv show..its about fitting in the whole season on her flash drive. ;)07:04
Dr_Willisone show just now was 192mb for webm, 163mb for mp407:05
reisiofind . -type f -iname '*.webm' -exec sh -c 'ffmpeg -i {} -vcodec libx264 -preset ultrafast -acodec libfdk_aac $(basename -s .webm {}).mp4' \;07:05
reisioDr_Willis: what's the flash drive capacity?07:05
varunendrajoakimk, the first attempt may fail for many reasons. The negotiation not completing being one of these many.07:05
Dr_Willisreisio:  she has a dozen. ;) one per show she wants07:05
Moscherkobold_good morning everyone, after an update my ubuntu laptop starts (after i choose "ubuntu" in the bootmgr) only in a commandline prombt instead of the usual gui login screen07:05
reisioheh07:05
reisioDr_Willis: what for?07:05
=== Moscherkobold_ is now known as Moscherkobold
Dr_WillisShe has Loveboat on the bright pink one with hearts...07:06
reisioMoscherkobold: grep EE /var/log/Xorg*log | pastebinit07:06
Dr_Willisshe has little house on the one with the ... and so on.07:06
varunendrajoakimk, there is also a slight discrepancy I just noticed. Is it an old installation upgraded to 12.04?07:06
reisioDr_Willis: she's real mobile I guess?07:06
joakimkvarunendra: yes07:06
anon914Moscherkobold_: its not morning for me07:06
Dr_Willisreisio:  not really. ;) but she has a tv that has a usb port  and hates looking through the hard drives.07:06
reisioDr_Willis: so... you look instead? :p07:07
Dr_Willisreisio:  teaching her how to use xbmc and plex. but she also has tablet she uses07:07
reisioah :p07:07
reisiointerim solution then07:07
varunendrajoakimk, it may be another possible reason. Your previous driver name was "iwlagn" which is now changed to iwlwifi. The system may be attempting the non existing driver in the first attempt.07:07
reisiobut with a little simple math you _can_ tell ffmpeg to make every show FOO% of USB stick capacity07:07
reisioevery show episode, rather07:08
joakimkvarunendra: any way to mend that?07:08
Dr_Willisshe has a media player (an o!play) that she loves -  she has a usb hub plugged into it. so she can plug in the 4 usb sticks she wants to watch that week.07:08
reisioo!play?07:08
Dr_WillisWestern Digital OPlay! set top box/media center07:08
reisioah07:08
Dr_Willisits an old one. we have had it for like 5+ years.07:08
reisioproprietary set top :)07:08
Dr_Willisit cant do netflix.07:08
reisiothat's something07:09
Dr_Willisbut it does have lots of ports. and can sometimes get onteh network. but no upnp07:09
varunendrajoakimk, resetting udev rules should do the trick. Unfortunately, I don't remember the command. You may try to manually correct a file though.07:09
reisionewer TVs do it all, of course07:09
Dr_WillisShe just dosent Like the newer settop box's or how the tv does it07:09
reisio:)07:09
reisioI'd use a (free) Unix-based set-top box, myself07:09
Dr_Willisthat Oplay can also play DVD ISO Images.. which i havent seen any other set top boxs do.07:09
reisioanyways, we digress :p07:09
Dr_Willisits what SHE wants. :)07:10
reisiomplayer -dvd-device foo.iso dvd://07:10
Dr_Willisdosent matter  what i want. ;P07:10
Dr_Willisid tell her to use the Roku and the Plex channel07:10
reisiomaybe it will "accidentally" break :p07:10
joakimkvarunendra: because, for now, I'm more concerned with just getting online than getting the N-channel speeds :)07:10
ackbahrLittle anacron question : I'm trying to setup a backup task, and I wonder what the "run-parts" already present in the default /etc/anacrontab mean?07:11
Dr_WillisI got her a WDTVlive hub also with built in  HD  - but she dident like it.  so its the grand kids Diego Box. ;P07:11
reisioackbahr: man 5 crontab ?07:11
reisioDr_Willis: this is the problem with people and their proprietary things07:11
reisiothey make you duplicate exactly with free software07:12
reisiothe meanies07:12
reisiobest to make them use free software from the start07:12
Dr_WillisI have 2 tv's setup with Plex-Pi devices ;P07:12
varunendrajoakimk, please try what is suggested in post #16 here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2162733&page=2&p=12734000#post12734000 to reset your udev rules.07:12
reisioDr_Willis: I keep meaning to do that, only with mplayer and a webUI07:14
reisioand probably not a pi at this point07:14
reisiowhoops, we digress more :p07:14
Dr_WillisPlex on my ubuntu file server and that PlexPi (or piplex) makes it handy.07:14
joakimkvarunendra: the first part generates the file, and the "check" part just views it afterwards?07:15
ackbahrreisio: Thanks!07:15
varunendrajoakimk, yes. You only need to check the udev rules file (the first 'cat' command in the check part)07:16
varunendramake sure the "iwlagn" part is replaced with "iwlwifi", joakimk07:16
reisioackbahr: :)07:16
ackbahrreisio: Still reading, doesn't mean I'll get it... :)07:17
reisioackbahr: but you found something mentioning it?07:17
=== Guest34250 is now known as Vonor
joakimkvarunendra: hmmm... After doing this, I didn't get a new .rules file07:18
patriickwhere would I report possible security holes in a package on the repos?07:18
grendal-primeya so reisio  it didnt show as being there because i removed it.07:18
grendal-primebut it was supposed to go on the root.  vda07:18
ackbahrWell, I thought it was something specific to anacron but I realised it's in fact the command! I didn't know it yet, but the structure makes it obvious... Sorry for not looking properly, but I'd rather avoid mistakes... :D07:19
joakimkI have 70-persistent-cd.rules file only (plus the backup file, of course)07:19
grendal-primeDr_Willis, what were you saying about webm vs mpg?07:19
ackbahr(That was for reisio)07:19
varunendrajoakimk, are you sure the commands finished successfully?07:19
reisiogrendal-prime: gj07:19
reisiogrendal-prime: vs mp4, he was saying the don't produce files of the same size07:19
reisioackbahr: ah07:20
reisioackbahr: I should've thought of that :p07:20
patriickGuess I'll just leave this here. http://www.gnutls.org/security.html#GNUTLS-SA-2013-2 The gnutls version in the repos is extremely outdated.07:20
joakimkvarunendra: well, they returned "udev stop/waiting" then "udev start/running, process 10970"07:20
grendal-primeya webm is much smaller in most cases07:20
MKCoinIs there a way to restart compiz without breaking everything with a GUI?07:20
joakimkvarunendra: same for network-manager, only process 1113007:20
ackbahrreisio: Sorry again. As you're already answering my questions, do you know when the "delay" setting starts?07:21
reisiogrendal-prime: much?07:21
grendal-primeim doing a lot of that kinda work right now. and web me..can be fuzzy-er but streams..loads and its size is amazingly small than mp407:21
reisioackbahr: sorry I'm not that familiar with anacron :)07:21
varunendrajoakimk, the creation part is "udevadm trigger". Did it return any outputs?07:21
joakimkvarunendra: could it have created the new file in the wrong directory? I didn't cd to /etc/udev/rules.d first...07:21
ackbahrreisio: No problem, thanks again for before.07:21
joakimkvarunendra: no output there...07:21
joakimkonly the "restart" commands gave output07:22
Dr_Willisgrendal-prime:  just noticed that some times the same video  in either one is smaller with no real pattern. ;)  same type of show. same legenth. but can be 30-40mb smaller in mp4 then webm.. but some times its the reverse07:22
grendal-primehours worth of video in webm format captured from my desktop is usually about  130 megs.  Hours worth of riped dvd video in mp4 is around 5-700meg07:23
varunendrajoakimk, no it shouldn't. Try a reboot then re-run the same commands. If the file is not created, restore the backup file and manually change "iwlagn" to "iwlwifi" in it. Although I believe the trigger command does more than that.07:23
grendal-primewell you can adjust alot of things..it depends on what you need as far as clairty.07:23
grendal-primeif you dont need hd, you will cut the size in half.07:24
reisiogrendal-prime: that seems like a useless comparison...07:24
grendal-primeno its not07:24
joakimkvarunendra: I'll try that :-D Thank you _very_ much for your excellent help!07:24
grendal-primei can show you the diff07:24
reisioscreen captured versus DVD ripped & transcoded?07:24
reisiothey have entirely separate sources...07:24
grendal-primesscreen capture is transcoded as well07:24
grendal-primesame res in the end07:24
reisioyeah, but you don't seem to be comparing screen captured transcoded to webm vs the same transcoded to mp407:25
grendal-primei do this allot dude07:25
varunendrajoakimk, You're welcome, if it doesn't help. You should post your problem in the forums. Feel free to pm me afterwards (my id is same there).07:25
grendal-primeok..sorry i have done that as well07:25
reisiookay :p07:25
reisiogrendal-prime: and the differences are?07:25
Dr_Willisgrendal-prime:  these are just ordinary tv shows/sitcoms - 25 min or so in legenth. 712x476 in size. faac audio. and they will be about 150-200mb in size. but   im just noticeing every so often webm will be 20-30 mb smaller.. or larger then the same file encoded to mp4 ;)  seems random.. or else im captureing more of the end credits and those encode better in one or the other07:26
grendal-primei can get webm usually about half the size of a  mpg the same size ...differenc is the clarity on the webm will be not so great when you resize07:26
reisiogrendal-prime: okay, what about an mp_4_07:26
reisioand if the clarity isn't the same, what does it matter...07:26
Dr_Willissame file - Mp4 = 204mb , webm was 190. so they are close.07:26
grendal-primemp4 size physically on the screen will usally be locked.07:26
reisioI'm guessing vorbis audio in webm is rather lower quality07:27
grendal-primethat could be to...i also know that the webm is much more browser friendly.07:27
reisioit isn't, though :)07:27
grendal-primeok07:27
reisiomore browsers support mp407:27
grendal-primenevermind then07:27
reisioit has the potential to be, sometime in the future07:28
grendal-primeok07:28
grendal-primeif you say so.07:28
Dr_Willisim playing them mainly on android tablets. both formats seem to  work the same. I just have to rename foo.webm to foo.webm.avi :) for my phones players07:28
reisioI do :)07:29
reisioInternet Explorer and Safari support MP4 over webm07:29
reisiofor now07:29
reisioyeah for a personal collection, used with a player of your own choice, it doesn't matter of course :)07:29
Dr_Willisbiggest issue i have with webm is that things like the file managers dont relize they are vidoes. so dont show the same properties/video info07:30
reisiojust rename them .webm.mp4 :p07:30
Dr_Willisand some of the set top box's i got dont support webm07:30
reisiothe GNU/Linux players won't care07:30
reisioah07:30
Dr_Willisthat dident seem to work  for windows, or nautilus07:30
reisiofancy new TVs support both, I believe07:30
reisioWindows? ewwww07:30
reisionautilus should just pass it off to your dedicated media player07:31
reisiowhich shouldn't care07:31
reisioif otherwise, you probably aren't using VLC or mplayer07:31
varunendragrendal-prime, you said - " clarity on the webm will be not so great when you resize" - do you resize the mpg file or a source file? Transcoding to a lossy codec is always going to lose some quality.07:31
grendal-primejesus07:32
grendal-primeim totaly wrong..07:32
varunendra??07:32
grendal-primeeveryone happy?07:32
grendal-primein fact i know nothing abbout this07:32
Dr_Willisi mean the properties dialog in nautilus. but that DOES seem to be working now. (in 13.10) it was  not working i recall in the eralier ubuntu releases i had last month)07:32

Dr_Willis!pin07:34
ubottupinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto07:34
varunendraddssc, there is no default "rollback" option in Ubuntu. Either you have to keep track of changes yourself, or maybe some third party application could do it, but I never heard of such any app.07:34

I have a file with the following permissions '-rw-------' when I do 'ls -l' and I need it to be '-rw-r--r--' I need help with the chmod command.  I know it is 'chmod xxx filename' but not sure what numbers I should put in place of the xxx13:28

serethUbuntuhi, I'm having trouble with reinstalling grub2. While creating a live disk grub was overwritten on disk sdb. I launched from a spare live usb disk and installed grub again with grub-install without errors. I also tried the boot repair program with this as result: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6083288/ - the bios however, still refuses to boot the disk13:33
BlueInsidesChogyDan: I'm still a newbie with Linux really and I've seen sites mentioning what you have but need to study a bit more as I don't get the adding up bit as it doesn't equal 64413:34
xvzfhi there, I hear sound only when logging in, but not afterwards. What can be the problem? I run Ubuntu 13.04 on an old macbook pro13:35
ChogyDanBlueInsides: first one is rw, 4+2=6, next is r, 4, last is also r, 413:35
ChogyDanBlueInsides: so each is in it's own slot basically13:36
foobarenkoI13:36
ChogyDanserethUbuntu: what happens when you try to boot?13:37
OerHeksxvzf maybe you need to install restricted extras, the login sound is a basic soundfile13:37
serethUbuntuChogyDan, there are three drives, windows xp, ubuntu and win7. Depending on the configuration it will boot one of the two windows drives13:37
serethUbunturegardless of ubuntu being the first13:37
=== maxx is now known as Guest74910
xvzfOerHeks: not the szs13:37
xvzfsystem sounds are missing, but I do not hear the sound of videos, for example13:38
curfontChogyDan: I added a new user, and it works nicely, what files do I need to copy over to my old user for the X settings?13:38
varunendradeepak_rai_, open your /etc/default/grub file with root access > look for line that says "GRUB_TIMEOUT=" > set its value to 10 ("GRUB_TIMEOUT=10"). Then do "sudo update-grub".13:38
serethUbuntuin addition, the two windows drives do not contain grub2 sectors. I only want grub2 to be part of sdb where ubuntu resides. The ubuntu disk is the first disk in the bios boot list.13:38
curfontoh, what, I am getting lots of popups "Ubuntu 13.04 has experienced an internal error"13:39
ChogyDancurfont: you might as well take a look, but those might all be from your previous login attempts13:39
ChogyDancurfont: I don't know what to copy.  The only thing I know of is to delete xorg.onf13:40
ChogyDan*xorg.conf13:40
curfonthmm13:40
BlueInsidesChogyDan: but if when I look at it there is 10 places to put a rwx and only 3 numbers. But then I see the 'd' at the start of the directories. Should I just ignore the first entry where d is or could be. Is this only to show its a dir or is it required to calc the number for the permission when its a dir?13:42
ChogyDanserethUbuntu: do you get any sort of grub msgs?  I think you can try holding shift during start13:42
=== Snake2k_ is now known as Snake2k
deepak_rai_Thanks varunendra13:43
serethUbuntuChogyDan, it skips the disk entirely - I could try rebooting and seeing what shift will do13:43
varunendranp deepak_rai_ :)13:44
ChogyDanBlueInsides: ignore the fist character, as like you said, it specifies whether it is a directory.  Each set of 3 forms a number, so _ _ _ . _ _ _ . _ _ _13:44
BlueInsidesChogyDan: Thanks, makes sense now. Thanks for your help.13:46

serapathi'm not too sure, but somewhere in the social network of theirs, i have read that VM's power down or hibernate or something, when people go away from koding.com15:54
reisioserapath: it might be based on cookies that are given short timeouts, and you might be able to get an extension for your browser that makes cookies persist unnaturally15:54
reisiosuch as cookieculler for firefox (at least)15:54
serapaththe reason was, that that will reduce the memory footprint on their side15:54

MonkeyDustrostam  you can also "downoad only", without installing, i'm not sure about the dependencies, though17:33
daftykinsrostam: hrmm, you'd need to keep it connected to keep all packages up to date though! :) you can find all the installed .deb files inside /var/cache/apt/archives after they've downloaded.17:33

JuiffiI have problem installing Ubuntu. The installer freezes pretty much right away if I'm going to X. The non-graphical installer gets to "pci_bus 0000:00: No busn resource found for root bus...18:11

JuiffiNo avail and I'm out of tricks18:11
JuiffiAlso, the install media passes md518:12
adzybekks, zfs list doesn't give me the total size, but that's besides the real issue. when i map my samba share to windows, it does the same thing - the total size decreases. i know three people who have a similar config and theirs reports total size and free space correctly18:12

Soelenhello, I try to run a firefox sync server, and I get all the time the same error on an ubuntu 12.04 system:18:15

Susning I've tried setting working file share between Win7 and Linux-machine now several times last 24 hours. Tried a couple of guides but nothing seems fully relevant or I'm fucking up at least. Anyone that feel motivated to try to help me with this one. Tried googling but that didn't make it more clear this time :p18:25
gmachine_24msbrown: I suppose you are right on that point. I guess I can't see buying a 1TB drive when all it will do is run an os which is <10gb18:26
adzygdalhman, is that to say that this (http://imgur.com/a/DLAfR) is completely expected? Because I have a friend using zfs pools, and it doesn't happen to him18:26
gdahlmanadzy: the general rule is to use zpool list to see if you are going to need more space and zfs list to see who is using more space18:26
=== hid_ is now known as hid

adzygdahlman, okay, had a skim read, i'm assuming there's nothing i can do to change the behaviour... the thing that's bugging me is that i know people whose total size doesn't shrink the way mine does, even though they're using zfs pools. that says to me that there's something different with my config but i can't tell what it could be.18:35
ChogyDanJuiffi: what version are you using?18:35
Juiffi13.0418:36

Juiffi_Possibly. Had no errors on WIn7. Which makes me quite stirred19:49
Juiffi_It could be faulty, but windows works, so no point getting a new one19:50
bekksJuiffi_: win7 is a totally different OS. And did you check pci device drivers, etc?19:50
meganerdJuiffi_: what are the symptoms?19:51

meganerdJuiffi_: doesn't sound like a bad motherboard, what is the boot media you are using (USB, cd/dvd)?19:55
WyzerIsn't Windows a hardware problem?19:55

lukasstrwolrah: when i boot via live cd i've a partition with 16.8MB20:34

SierraARwilee-nilee: All the text from what?20:34
meganerdlukasstr: the bad news is that you lose filesystem metadata, like filenames20:35

timholumHello I am trying to customize an ubuntu live cd, I am having a hard time trying to find out where to customize unity, I want to change the background image and customize what's in the side bar ( along with add a few firefox shortcut's )21:08
AlexFromCanadaA while ago I installed ubuntu and windows alongside mac on my macbook pro. I forgot to change the location to install GRUB, and messed up my windows installation. After a reinstall (as I had almost nothing on it), everything was working fine, except that on rEFIt it showed grubx64.efi as a bootable operating system. This was very annoying, as it showed an ugly unknown operating system logo beside the windows and mac logos when21:08
supercom32Suppose I have an old box running Ubuntu 10.04, and I cram in a bootable USB drive with 12.04 LTS, can I just install it from within my existing Ubuntu install? Or must I actually boot from that USB key first?21:09
AlexFromCanadaI was looking on google for a solution and a forum post said to mount the EFI partition and delete the ubuntu folder which had grubx64 in it.21:09
AlexFromCanadaNow windows will not boot and I have lots of important files on there.21:09
AlexFromCanadaAnyone know what to do?21:09
raubKinda miffed: just created a 12.04.3 server vm. It rebooted and is not sitting in the "Starting Uncomplicated Firewall" step in its first boot21:09
meganerdAlexFromCanada: it is a windows issu21:10
meganerdAlexFromCanada: boot from windows cd and choose repair, not sure if that works with bootcamp21:10
AlexFromCanadaI didn't use bootcamp21:10
wilee-nileesupercom32, inside no boot yes, with a separate home you  couliss that one.21:10
AlexFromCanadajust new partition and install21:10
wilee-nileeCould use*21:11
AlexFromCanadaThe windows CD will not recognise the Windows partition as having windows on it.21:11
AlexFromCanadaSo it cannot repair21:11
supercom32wilee-nillee: Forgive me if I'm a little slow, as I'm kind of new to Linux. So If I do the install from within an existing Ubuntu setup, can I just replace the total installation? The reason I ask is because I'm using a Zbox VD01 which uses some via chipset. And with that, no newer versions of ubuntu work for install because I get a black screen (>_<);21:12
meganerdAlexFromCanada: I have not owned a MAC for nearly a decade21:12
AlexFromCanadaI don't think its a mac problem21:12
meganerdAlexFromCanada: It is since they have a locked boot loader21:13
AlexFromCanadaThe problem was I deleted the ubuntu folder form the EFI partition21:13
supercom32So I'm trying to just get some later version of ubuntu installed so I can load the VIA drivers after on it.21:13
AlexFromCanada*from21:13
AlexFromCanadaand now windows won't boot21:13
meganerdAlexFromCanada: I have not tried in a while, but I seemed to need to use bootcamp to get windows installed.21:13
wilee-nileesupercom32, install could have two meanings in your context, full install or  loading a iso to the flash21:13
XMLnewbiwhen setting up a vps and it ask's me NS1 and NS2 prefix, its asking for www right?21:14
supercom32wilee-nilee: When I say install, I mean to say "wipe the internal drive clean, and install fresh". Sorry if I was a little vauge before.21:14
meganerdsupercom32: you could use do-release-upgrade21:15
gamma9mu.21:16
wilee-nileesupercom32, The booted usb allow a wipe and install easily, I assume here a usb with the 12.04 ISO loaded21:16
supercom32meganerd: Does that allow you to jump to any arbitrary version? or only the next one in line?21:16
supercom32wilee-nilee: Yes, but when I boot to it, i get a black screen during install because it doesn't support the VIA graphics chipset.21:16
supercom32wilee-nilee: I tried alternative + server and nothing seems to show any kind of install screens.21:17
AlexFromCanadaSo it's an Ubuntu/Windows problem.21:17

AlexFromCanada_Sorry if anyone responded while I was gone, but the internet in my school stopped working for a second.21:20
AlexFromCanada_orry, maybe I'm not being clear. I had ubuntu, windows, and mac for a while. But accidentally installed grub to the whole hard drive instead of just the one partition. This broke windows, so I just reinstalled it. I stopped using ubuntu so I uninstalled it, but there was still an ubuntu folder in the EFI, so I manually deleted that. After deleting ubuntu from the efi, windows will not boot. So it's an Ubuntu/Windows problem.21:20
AlexFromCanada_*sorry21:20
supercom32wilee-nilee: I suppose I could try forcing VISA during install, but I would have to enable that 'blind' as I can't see anything.21:20

BluesKajAlexFromCanada_, frub normally insalls itself to the mbr /first 512kb on a windows install , after installing ubuntu , sometimes running sudo os prober , then sudo update-grub will find the the Windows partition and list ti in grub21:23

tinksterAny reference to PPA repos that doesn't need a GUI talks about using add-apt-repository.  Funny thing is that that's not installed on 12.04, and apt-cache seems to be unable to find it, too ... where do I get that program from?21:24
supercom32wilee-nilee: You mean from release to release? Well, I have later versions of the driver on hand. It's just I need the OS installed so I can apply it at command line. But I can't do it during install time since I see nothing.21:24
supercom32wilee-nilee: unless I can install ubuntu via command line via something like "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop".21:25
supercom32But I think it says it is already installed since it thinks it's the live USB or whatnot.21:25
supercom32that's from pressing "ctrl+alt+F1" when I see nothing after booting my install USB Key.21:26

AlexFromCanada_Here ya go.21:32
AlexFromCanada_I am having an issue with windows. A while ago I had windows and mac on my computer. Then I installed ubuntu and forgot to change the grub install location, so it installed for the whole hard drive. This messed up windows so I reinstalled windows. A few months later, I decided to get rid of ubuntu so I did that. Just today, I noticed an ubuntu folder in the EFI partition of my hard drive so I deleted it. Inside that folder is 21:32
AlexFromCanada_windows will no longer boot.21:32
updBeastlybk, just write your problem21:32
BeastlybkOk21:33

BeastlybkI recently upgraded(attempted) from 12.04 to  12.10 it went through all the upgrades and removal of not needed files and what not.

boodroscotchHi y'all, I recently got an Intel Ivy Bridge laptop and I was wondering: what's the default CPU governor for Ivy Bridge CPUs? I understand PSTATES handles most of the stuff, but there are still two governors available.21:41
Luyinboodroscotch: which are available?21:42
boodroscotchLuyin: powersave and performance. the scaling driver is intel_pstates, if it's any help.21:42
TheRedOctoberGreetings all. What is the preferred/safe way in 12.04 to remove an apt lock (ie. http://pastebin.com/r0Eh1Dwj )?21:43
Luyinboodroscotch: I uses none of these, sorry. I consider you should also have ondemand and conservative, but I'm not very into this.21:43
BeastlybkWhen I try to do the first command...nothing comes up after. Then I do sudo service gdm start and get "gdm: unrecognized service"21:44
boodroscotchLuyin: it was stated a while back that conservative and ondemand actually decreased efficiency compared to powersave and performance because of the new power management tech in Sandy Bridge CPUs and newer. Thanks anyways, though.21:44
cuddylierAnyone know how to make a FTP account for a user so they can only access a certain directory? I've googled it and tried all sorts of things with no luck, not able to connect via SFTP, just says Authentication failed.21:45
gvocuddylier: What ftp server?21:45

xavier23HI guys. Sorry to bring up this old topic. BUT….. red hat or debian for a server?21:47
Marleneehow can i recorde the bandwidth of my server21:47
BeastlybkOk21:48

gvoassociated.21:48
updah jest my bad its lightdm now xD21:48
xavier23meganerd: being a ubuntu fan, i guess debian. but someone said redhat is better?21:48
BeastlybkOk I did that and everything says ok on the right side21:49
meganerdxavier23: I use debian or ubuntu-server, I prefer Debian mostly because it does not have a 6 month cycle, and the LTS versions have underwhelmed in the past 5 years21:49
Luyinboodroscotch: well I use ondemand while on AC and conservative on battery since yesterday. got the impression battery usage got better, but it's not confirmed yet.21:49
gvoxavier23: Rather subjective21:49
BeastlybkIt seems t o be "checking battery state..."21:49
meganerdxavier23: everyone has an opinion.21:49
gvoxavier23: I run both ubuntu and centos servers.  I find ubuntu friendlier21:50
meganerdxavier23: I have been using Linux since the 90's, started with RedHat 7.something, been around Slackware, Debian (and FreeBSD, OpenBSD for non linux FLOSS).21:50
=== tilal6991|away is now known as tilal6991
meganerdxavier23: there is good and bad in all, it really boils down to what are *you* more comfortable with.21:50
gvomeganerd: Well put21:51
Artemis3and ubuntu server21:51
xavier23meganerd: Yes agree with you ; Debian > Ubuntu for server21:51
meganerdxavier23: I can administer any of them at this point, but I know Debian and Ubuntu from the inside a lot better, so that is what I choose to use.21:51
Artemis3just stick to lts and youll be fine with ubuntu server21:52
meganerdxavier23: they are pretty much the same, only the release cadence is different21:52
xavier23meganerd: maybe I just stick with debian. i don't know anything about RHL21:52
=== tilal6991 is now known as tilal6991|away
meganerdArtemis3: not really true.  LTS can be a royal pain21:52
Artemis3im using lts on desktops, there is no problem at all21:52
xavier23I don't like the number of updates that you constantly have to apply with ubuntu21:52
meganerdxavier23: with Ubuntu 14.04, I think the plan is for a rolling release, and that interests me greatly21:52
cuddyliergvo Can't see one. I can't believe that no one has ever wanted to make multiple FTP accounts going to certain directories before or at least why it's not really popular that it's so straight forward.21:52
xavier23As a server therefore i would avoid it21:53
Artemis3its just security updates, you can't avoid those on any distro, bug/exploits are found and often patched, not updating means risking for the unwanted.21:53
meganerdxavier23: updates depend solely on what is installed.  With no GUI there are a far less updates.21:53
BeastlybkMeganerd: I did that and everytHing says ok on the right hand side.21:53
yohkurahi guys21:54
xavier23meganerd: humm ok21:54

memandupd: it seems that my init script for nfs-kernel-server is not the same as the one in that ticket, here http://sprunge.us/YGCG is the output of sudo cat /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server21:54
meganerdxavier23: most of the server packages look very similar between Debian and Ubuntu (at home I have 5 Ubuntu server installs, I have several VPS installs that are split between Debian and Ubuntu)21:54
yohkura(with ubuntu)21:55
Artemis3yohkura, looks like one of the light tiling wms, i wonder if thats tint2 on top?21:55
meganerdxavier23: really not much between them.  I have a cron job that checks for and applies updates every 6 hours, and checks to see if a reboot is needed every morning (and reboots it if needed).  Pretty much the same on either Debian or Ubuntu.21:56
meganerdBeastlybk: did a GUI login not appear21:56
meganerd?21:56
gvocuddylier: it sounds like your problem is with authentication rather than a jail problem.21:56
BeastlybkNope21:56
memandas you can see the line in question is not in the file21:56
BeastlybkStill on this full screen terminal21:56
BeastlybkIt's stuck at "checking battery state" I'm on a desktop21:57
cuddyliergvo Yeah, as I read on google there, a user should have a SFTP account by default21:57
cuddylierI have a directory that root needs to access as normal but I want just this user to access only that directory, /home/servers/survival21:58
cuddylierI set the user directory in /etc/passwd21:58
cuddylierBut it hasn't seemed to have done anything21:58
cuddylierAnd I changed the users password21:58
gvoDid it work OK before you made the changes?21:59
yohkuraArtemis3: well, i dont know but it looks gorgeous in my opinion :D pure minimalism21:59
xavier23meganerd: Wow you have a lot of servers. Anyway, thank you for sharing this advice.21:59
somanHow to use variable in a for loop to pass it as a part of link to wget? http://paste.kde.org/pd63159fb/13787639/ this one doesn't work well21:59
cuddyliergvo Nope21:59
cuddyliergvo I have only tried this for the first time21:59
gvoSo it doesn't have anything to do with the changes you made perhaps.  Go back to a normal configuration and see if that works first.  Then make changes.22:00
cuddyliergvo Normal configuration of what?22:00
gvoyour ftp daemon.22:01
gvoand the password file.22:01
meganerdxavier23: most of them are VMs, though I am messing around with ceph so there are a couple of extra machines sitting down there for a couple of months22:01
cuddyliergvo All I would be doing is removing that user from it though22:01
meganerdxavier23: will need to power them down before the winter electricity bills arrive :)22:01
gvoSo take a normal user and try to log in.  If that doesn't work, you have other problems.22:01
cuddylierWhat is the best commands to use to create a user and assign them to a directory then?22:02
DMGrierHey everyone22:02
gvoserver or desktop?22:02
meganerdgvo: what do want to use the comptuer for?22:02
cuddyliergvo SSH22:02

gvoOK useradd22:03
gvocuddylier: ^^^22:03
cuddyliergvo useradd [username]?22:03
xavier23meganerd: cool. What can one do with so many servers, except maybe bitcoin mining? haha22:03
gvocuddylier: useradd -m username22:03
cuddyliergvo Will we change their home directory after?22:03
gvoNot going to change it.22:04
xavier23Maybe hosting i guess22:04
gvoMake sure it works first22:04
cuddylierk22:04
gvoBe sure to add a password.22:04
cuddylieryeah, just passwd [username] right?22:04
gvoYes as root.22:04
cuddylierAfter creating22:04
cuddylieryep22:04
cuddyliergvo That worked fine, I logged into their home directory with SFTP22:05
meganerdxavier23: one is a file server and VM server, one of the VMs does dhcp and dns (and PXE boot files), on VM is a Linux desktop (acessed via NX), another VM is for server (apache) stuff.  The other two "servers" are running a storage cluster proof of concept (ceph)22:05
cuddyliergvo They can view the root directory of the server though :O22:05
=== tilal6991|away is now known as tilal6991
xavier23meganerd: Interesting22:06
gvoOK now try to change the directory to somewhere else22:06
cuddyliergvo How do I do that?22:06
cuddylierWhat's the command?22:06
gvoEdit the /etc/passwd file22:06
meganerdxavier23: I also have a couple of Windows server VMs, and a Windows 7 VM (so I can retire my physical Windows machine).22:07
Beastlybkmeganerd: it didn't start a GUI or anything it got stuck at "checking batter state..." I'm on a desktop22:07
gvocuddylier: be sure the new directory has rwx permission for the user.22:07
cuddyliergvo That worked but they can still access the root directory22:07
gvoI don't think you can do what you want with that ftp server.  Proftpd will let you jail users.22:08

updmemand, its just annoying bug, try booting in older kernel version22:09

cuddylierWhy not put multiple people on same directory?22:15
gvoYou could but you'd have to either open it up to let anyone write or put each person in the same group and give the directory group write.22:16
updmemand, usually there is allready an older kernel if you updated, and you can choose it at boot, well or check how to downgrade kernel, it will be added to grub config, and then you can set it to boot it, about which kernel i have no idea..22:16

memandubtdntwrk: the thing is that when something is deleted in linux it is deleted for real, so the only way to make a fallback would be to have a list of the packages that where installed at the last update and then fall back to them, but that would need an internet connection do work23:31
wilee-nileememand, sorta accurate, there are files and configs that stay, depends on the delete.23:31

RaskHello, channel.  I've encountered a number of web pages that say you can enable a VNC server that shares your main desktop instead of creating a new one by going to System>Preferences>Remote Desktop... but that seems to apply to some very outdated versions of Ubuntu and I can't figure out where that setting has moved, if it's still around at all.  is it?23:54
walterwojI restoed the back how do I get my network remanaged23:55
