| gblazer | wilee-nilee: i want to run httperf against nginx access log and preserve origin request headers. can't find a way to do it | 00:12 |
| wilee-nilee | Geo, We see people here who wipe it all and try and install ubuntu with these uefi setups, the uefi fastboot is attached to the chip and bios, I'm not sure just wiping windows is the best option, so be careful, not many here really know. | 00:12 |
| walterwoj | He had me delete my net.rules and reboot, that unmanaged everything, all the rest has just been output from sys files. | 00:12 |
| usingphrik | oh shit walterwoj | 00:13 |
| wilee-nilee | gblazer, I know nothing about that, how ever what I do know is that details are what get responses here. | 00:13 |
| usingphrik | that sucks | 00:13 |

| upd | if you allready reboot after cp old new there is no need for reboot again | 00:27 |

| Retroballa | Yeah I read a quick review of how there were the same thing found in multiple places on ubuntu mobile. Looks good if they get teh UI working better. Looks interesting | 00:27 |
| upd | walterwoj, ok | 00:28 |
| walterwoj | upd: this is the output of vi 70-perstistent-net.rules | 00:28 |
| walterwoj | upd: http://pastebin.com/CyXDa1QW | 00:29 |
| Retroballa | I was curoius. Is there a good disc image program designed to backup the bootloader plus the hardrive that contains ubuntu? Win 8 is on my other hard drive | 00:29 |
| marklar | Howdy! I hope I'm not interrupting a conversation, I'm new to IRC, but looking at the log, I think I'm safe. I'm having trouble getting XDMCP working with Ubuntu 12.04, and was wondering if anyone could help. I am able to connect, but receive a black screen. Google/DuckDuckGo have not yielded any helpful results. | 00:32 |
| walterwoj | updok, I'm back, and I have regained my wireless and secondary ethernet connectrions | 00:33 |
| upd | walterwoj cool | 00:33 |
| walterwoj | upd: any thoughts on the eth0 issue? | 00:33 |
| wilee-nilee | Retroballa, clonezilla works nicely whole HD's or partions, saves the mbr | 00:34 |
| wilee-nilee | partitions* | 00:34 |
| asduk | hello | 00:35 |
| wilee-nilee | ah windows 8, should work in general | 00:35 |
| asduk | what are the best deskplets for system monitoring | 00:35 |
| upd | walterwoj so is eth0 now there what does ifconfig eth0 up say, and try ifconfig eth0 dhclient | 00:35 |
| DarnFake | asl | 00:35 |
| Retroballa | I found a program called cronopete, but I guess thats not exactly what I had in mind | 00:37 |
| walterwoj | upd: eth0 is not there, eth1 is and ifconfig eth0 says device not found. | 00:37 |
| wilee-nilee | Retroballa, The windows 8 inclusion makes it a bit more complex, If it were me I would make sure what ever you use actually works. | 00:37 |
| upd | walterwoj, then do ifconfig eth1 up | 00:38 |
| Retroballa | yeah, I try to keep windows and linux on seprate hard drives. I never ilked them to be on the same drive | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Retroballa, That is the least of your problem. The uefi thankg is the hitch | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | thang* | 00:40 |
| walterwoj | 'sudo ifconfig eth1 up' gives me nada, 'sudo ifconfig eth1' shows the proper card (the one i added today) | 00:40 |
| Retroballa | I may try clonezilla. Even if I have to redo ubuntu for whatever reason, If I had a backup of it then I can leave the bootloader alone, just restore the image to the drive linux is on | 00:41 |
| konnyboy | hello | 00:43 |
| upd_ | walterwoj okey i give up, the module seems okey no error in dmesg, as if this happend after upgrade the tulip module has a bug, or something is misconfigured | 00:45 |
| === upd_ is now known as upd | ||
| wilee-nilee | Retroballa, I don't believe the bootloader is in the mbr is all, be sure you know where. | 00:46 |
| wilee-nilee | Retroballa, YOu could run the bootscript for more info in general. | 00:47 |
| walterwoj | upd: thanks a lot, I have the seconary card working now and I can live with that for the moment. Thanks a lot for your help!!!!!! I'm going to bed now... | 00:47 |

| wilee-nilee | hfase, the gnome-shell? the ubuntu desktop run on gnome 3 did you remove it? | 00:50 |
| wilee-nilee | hfase, This involve a PPA? and answer other questions | 00:50 |
| hfase | I did remove both. I dont think i used a ppa, i will try what you said first | 00:51 |
| wilee-nilee | hfase, I gave no instructions, just asked questions | 00:52 |
| wilee-nilee | hfase, You have tried to remove desktops, these are meta packages, this has to done correctly, and from what I can tell you have not done this. | 00:55 |
| wilee-nilee | to be* | 00:56 |
| Retroballa | hmm, anyone have the correct path to the correct PPA for nvidia drivers | 00:57 |

| audrey | any way to sort rhythmbox playlists by genre? | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | Retroballa, for the record ppa's are not supported here. | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | Retroballa, try running software-properties-gtk and look at additional drivers | 01:01 |
| Retroballa | sorry wilee I did not know | 01:02 |
| dakotawulfy | Retroballa jockey-gtk will help you install the nvidia | 01:02 |
| dakotawulfy | Retroballa is a easy gui for the drivers | 01:03 |
| Retroballa | thanks dak. I'll look into it | 01:03 |
| rahul_ | Hii all | 01:03 |
| rahul_ | I could not mount my external harddisk in ubuntu 12.04 | 01:03 |
| rahul_ | it is asking for specify type | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | what kind of filesystem is the drive? whats the exact command you are using to mount it | 01:04 |
| NeGoTUX | helow | 01:04 |
| Dr_Willis | hellooo: please dont spam me in pm. | 01:05 |
| Rallias | Is it possible to encrypt my hard disk drive in such a way that I have to SSH into my host to enter the encryption key? | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Rallias: that would be a neat trick | 01:06 |
| Rallias | Ooop, found it. I can use dropbear and do it. | 01:07 |
| Dr_Willis | if the whole disk is encrypted.. how is it going to run anything? ;) | 01:07 |
| wilee-nilee | disaster waiting, people screw up straight encrypts | 01:07 |
| dheeraj | I could not mount my external harddisk in ubuntu 12.04 | 01:08 |
| dheeraj | it is asking for specify type | 01:08 |
| Rallias | Dr_Willis, Well, /boot | 01:08 |
| midnightcruz | ;o | 01:08 |
| wilee-nilee | audrey, There is a genre and artists box in preferences. | 01:09 |
| Rallias | Dr_Willis, It's with a hostmaster that I'd trust ultimately. | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | dheeraj: what kind of filesystem is the drive? whats the exact command you are using to mount it | 01:09 |
| Rallias | It's just it's intended to be a mail relay host to one that has an encrypted storage unit, so I'd like to have that inch and a half of additional security. | 01:10 |
| dheeraj | Dr_Willis: i used mount -t ntfs | 01:10 |
| dheeraj | but in gparted it is showing unknown filesystem | 01:10 |
| Kalel | Night All.. | 01:10 |
| Dr_Willis | dheeraj: what was the rest of the mount command? its possible the fs is currupted. or hd has failed also. You may want to check it in windows | 01:11 |
| Dr_Willis | dheeraj: its not using any sort of truecrypt or other fancy encryption is it? | 01:11 |
| Kalel | I'd like to know if I can change onlly the volume indicator of the gtk theme? | 01:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Kalel: you mean the icon image on the panel? | 01:11 |
| lucidium | I'm thinking about installing intrepid so I can run the legacy fglrx drivers, so how much functionality would I lose? Could I still install the latest versions of say, mythtv? | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis | !intrepid | 01:12 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 30th, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis | lucidium: it would be a 5 year old OS. i doubt if you would be able to get teh latest of anything on it | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis | mythtv has a MAJOR set of dependencies. | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis | i cant really think of anything more complex then Mythtv really ;) | 01:13 |
| lucidium | alright. I guess the radeon drivers will have to do then, they are slightly disappointing though. | 01:13 |
| dheeraj | previously that harddisk was running in my laptop wit SUse installed on it | 01:13 |
| esde | getting my first dedicated unmanaged server soon, is there some sort of guide on things to do? like to harden the system and such? | 01:13 |
| cjwelborn | kkkkkkkkkkk' | 01:13 |
| Kalel | Dr_Willis: When i change the coltrol volume, appear a little square from the gtk theme with the volume symbol. I want to change it for 'ambience' 'cuz has the loding little bar, and the entire theme as ' faience'. | 01:14 |
| Kalel | *control | 01:14 |
| sordidbass | Radeon graphics support on linux kind of blows all around... | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis | you could always make your own theme set i guess.. ive never seen a way to change just the single icon of it | 01:14 |
| Kalel | The Faience theme hasn't the little 'loding' or 'level' volume bar. | 01:15 |
| dheeraj | Dr_Willis: i dont hav windows..?? | 01:15 |
| Dr_Willis | dheeraj: theres windows dvd/iso recovery disks. | 01:15 |
| Dr_Willis | dheeraj: why did you format it to ntfs then if you dont have windows? :) | 01:15 |
| cockatiel | hi | 01:16 |
| cockatiel | anyone want to talk? | 01:16 |
| dheeraj | Dr_Willis: But i have some data in it | 01:16 |
| dheeraj | :( | 01:17 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel u can find that icon in the theme have the same size icon and change that icon to that name might work | 01:17 |
| Diamondcite | hellooo: is spamming in PM | 01:18 |
| dheeraj | Diamondcite: yes | 01:18 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel that would let u change that icon might have to rest icon cache to make it show up right if it does not | 01:18 |
| Kalel | dakotawulfy: Do you know which square I mean? Appear in the center of the screen. GTK theme is responsible for that. Were can I find the file to change it? Can I use two themes once? | 01:18 |
| worrow | Hello all. i am running latest rhythmbox and was wondering if there was a fix for sync to ipod resulting in the song not showing on the ipod. Sync show to have gone well and song was added in list in rhythmbox though. | 01:18 |
| === sburjan_ is now known as sburjan` | ||
| Dr_Willis | dheeraj: well the disk seems currupted or dead. you could try using ddrescue to image it to a file. and try to recovery from that file. Putting the hd in a windows box. or trying a windows live cd/dvd may let you recovery the data also. | 01:20 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel ok sorry thought you wanted to change an icon in a theme | 01:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Kalel: you may want to post a screenshot. :) im not sure what you are trying to change | 01:21 |
| sordidbass | So how man of you refuse to run non-LTS releases? | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | sordidbass: i basically only run NON-Lts. ;) | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | except for the 6 mo when the LTS happens to be the latest release | 01:22 |
| sordidbass | Dr_Willis: blasphemy! | 01:23 |
| Dr_Willis | i dont see much use for a normal home user to limit theirselfs to lts | 01:23 |
| Dr_Willis | at least with this round of LTS - they are trying to keep the kernel and X and stuff updated better. | 01:23 |
| sordidbass | i manage to break every non-LTS release | 01:23 |
| sordidbass | or get horribly annoyed at how unstable they can be :) | 01:23 |
| Dr_Willis | cant say i really manage to break lts or non-lts | 01:23 |
| Dr_Willis | cant say i find them unstable either. ;) | 01:23 |
| sordidbass | I just did a fresh install of 12.04.3, was actually surprised to see a newer kernel | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Yep the whole x.x.03 is handy | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | hard to keep everyone happy. but newer hardware is changeing so much. it would be hard to keep LTS running on stuff that came out.. today. if they dident. | 01:24 |
| trism | Kalel: if it is in the center of the screen it sounds like the gnome-settings-daemon osd...which seems to use audio-volume-*-symbolic for icons, I have them here in the Faenza theme | 01:27 |
| TsarObomba | anyone using -pf or liquorix? | 01:27 |
| Kalel | I'm trying to paste a screenshot.. | 01:27 |
| Kalel | trism: Is exactely that. | 01:27 |
| trism | Kalel: you get that if you aren't using notify-osd, otherwise you will get one in the top right corner with the rest of the notifications | 01:28 |
| TsarObomba | ummm staff | 01:28 |
| TsarObomba | !ops hellooo is pm spamming odd links | 01:29 |
| Kalel | trism: Do you know hot to set, for example: I am using Faience gtk theme. I want the Ambience's notifications, Included the 'volume osd... | 01:29 |
| TsarObomba | if you'd like proof i dont mind providing it, just not in channel | 01:29 |
| wilee-nilee | TsarObomba, show them to #ubuntu-ops or #freenode | 01:29 |
| TsarObomba | wilee-nilee: `ubottu caught it and forwarded it apparently | 01:30 |
| TsarObomba | and freenode never cares | 01:30 |
| TsarObomba | they say "use /ignore" | 01:30 |
| wilee-nilee | TsarObomba, Yes they do, they will ban them | 01:30 |
| TsarObomba | no, they really dont | 01:30 |
| TsarObomba | been there, done that | 01:30 |
| trism | Kalel: make sure you have the scalable audio-volume-muted-symbolic audio-volume-low-symbolic audio-volume-medium-symbolic and audio-volume-high-symbolic in your theme | 01:30 |
| Dr_Willis | and you are spamming the channel even worse with the ranting. | 01:30 |
| trism | Kalel: you might need need to add some links to other icons | 01:30 |
| wilee-nilee | depends on the sapm | 01:30 |
| Kalel | trism: Ok. Can you help me a little more? | 01:31 |
| * wilee-nilee blocks all pm's and invites | 01:31 | |
| * Dr_Willis invites wilee-nilee over for dinner. | 01:32 | |
| IdleOne | wilee-nilee: thanks for sharing the irrelevant info with the entire channel. | 01:32 |
| IdleOne | Dr_Willis: thanks for helping to continue the off topic comments | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | I mentioned hellooo 's pm on join spam earlier also. | 01:32 |
| trism | Kalel: it looks like the only icon you can theme in osd is the volume one, I don't see the brightness/eject, etc (could be wrong though) | 01:33 |
| TsarObomba | jeeez, ops here are rude | 01:33 |
| Kalel | trism: How can I paste a screenshot easuly? | 01:33 |
| IdleOne | TsarObomba: chit chat elsewhere, and thank you for you help. | 01:34 |
| trism | !screenshot | Kalel | 01:34 |
| ubottu | Kalel: 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. | 01:34 |
| Kalel | easily.. | 01:34 |
| TsarObomba | IdleOne: sure thing | 01:34 |
| Kalel | trism: http://imagebin.org/270408 - note the volume thing.. | 01:35 |
| Kalel | Dr_Willis: ^ | 01:36 |
| dakotawulfy | trism would it be easier to just rename the icon take the ones he want and rename them to the same name ? | 01:36 |
| Dr_Willis | if that OSD icon image even comes from an editable icon. cant say ive ever noticed it or tried to chagne it.. askubuntu.com may know how. or if its even possible | 01:37 |
| Kalel | hmm... | 01:37 |
| Kalel | dakotawulfy: How to do that without compromise the themes? | 01:37 |
| Kalel | Looks plausible.. | 01:37 |
| Dr_Willis | if its part of the gnome stuff. it might not be editable. it might be in the code. | 01:38 |
| Dr_Willis | this is in gnome-shell or gnome classic mode? | 01:38 |
| trism | Kalel: ahh you're in gnome-shell, that may be drawn by the shell...though it may still have the same name as the one in gnome-settings-daemon | 01:39 |
| Kalel | Dr_Willis: Shell. | 01:39 |
| trism | dakotawulfy: yeah I would probably just add some symbolic links to the names he needs, the problem is figuring out the names | 01:39 |
| Kalel | trism: It just change when I change the gtk theme. With the Ambience theme, I have other style. Most beautiful.. | 01:40 |
| dakotawulfy | trism what about going to that theme icons and look and match them up | 01:40 |
| Kalel | Probably, the better way is let like 'as is'.. | 01:41 |
| Konigsberg7 | this is wierd im stuck at stopping userspace bootsplash when i boot into xubuntu | 01:41 |

| trism | Kalel: can you add a screenshot with the other theme? | 01:43 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel when i have a theme i like i use it if i want to change a few icons i will go find the ones i want and replace them with the ones i like just save the original one then u have it. | 01:43 |
| Kalel | trism: dakotawulfy; Note the little orange bar.. http://imagebin.org/270409 | 01:45 |
| trism | Kalel: oh the bar is not an icon it would be a color in the theme | 01:46 |
| Kalel | trism: Is gtk theme configurable? | 01:47 |
| Kalel | trism: You see all my problems because a little beautifull bar.. | 01:48 |
| dakotawulfy | that would be in the gtk 3 theme right the easy way to do that is open gimp get the color number then search for that number in the the theme config and change it to what u want | 01:49 |
| Kalel | dakotawulfy: I will try.. | 01:49 |
| dakotawulfy | if you chose the color thing should let u pick the color click on that bar | 01:50 |
| roachmmflhyr | I have chrooted a user but added symbolic links to other files in the filesystem, but I only want them to have access to what I have symbolicly link to them, my problem is that when they change directories into the symbolic link they can "break out of the jail" by cd to .. how do I send them back to their home directory | 01:51 |
| Dr_Willis | are you using 'bash' or 'rbash' for their shell? | 01:52 |
| Connor | Hey guys.. I'm having a issue with a system. I have a RAID 1 setup.. and one of the drives has failed (originally sda1). I've pulled the disk.. trying to boot up.. and get a blinking currsor | 01:52 |
| crianca | hi | 01:52 |
| roachmmflhyr | Dr_Willis, bash | 01:52 |
| trism | Kalel: think dakotawulfy had the right idea, I see it in /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css in the progress bar theme | 01:52 |
| Connor | I know something is wrong with grub2 (12.04 lts server).. Can anyone help ? | 01:52 |
| Dr_Willis | roachmmflhyr: you might want to look into rbash, i recall it being used by others in here wanting to lock down users. | 01:52 |
| levi_w | hi | 01:52 |
| DMGrier | levi_w: hello and welcome | 01:53 |
| Connor | I have a /boot and / partition. | 01:53 |
| levi_w | thank you | 01:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Connor: a /boot and / are common. give us details as to the problem. theres also the various fixgrub wiki pages that have guides | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixgrub | 01:54 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 01:54 |
| Kalel | Got it. I will compare both and make the change.. | 01:54 |
| wilee-nilee | Connor, You can reload and or purge and reinstall grub, not sure that is the problem in general with a raid failure. | 01:55 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel you can use gimp to match any color on screen the use that number to get the color you want | 01:55 |
| Kalel | Ok.. The same Ambience's color will match with the faience claire details.. | 01:56 |
| Connor | yes, I know they're common. RAID1, /dev/mapper/System-boot /dev/mapper/System-Data, sda is dead sdb is fine.. I can see the file system just fine via rescue disk | 01:56 |
| Connor | I've booted up in rescue. mounted and chrooted / | 01:56 |
| Connor | mounted boot, and then issued a update-grub | 01:57 |
| Connor | but.. when I reboot.. it still just hangs with a blinking cursor. | 01:57 |
| roachmmflhyr | Dr_Willis, seems to only occur when the user is ftp'd into the server | 01:57 |
| roachmmflhyr | Dr_Willis, when the user is ssh'd in they cd .. back to their home dir | 01:58 |
| ObrienDave | Connor::: Any external USB drives attached? | 01:58 |
| Connor | No. Just the USB CDROM | 01:58 |
| Connor | but, not when I'm booting. | 01:58 |
| Connor | only when booting into rescue disk | 01:58 |
| Kalel | dakotawulfy: The .css file is so much big. I can't find the right place to change.. Yet.. | 01:59 |
| ghena1986 | http://bit.ly/183GBEv | 01:59 |
| Kalel | trism: Where did you found it? | 02:00 |
| z3r03z | hello | 02:00 |
| trism | Kalel: line 1234 in my version | 02:00 |
| Kalel | trism: Line? | 02:00 |
| trism | Kalel: background-color: #db6a3c; | 02:00 |
| papito | is there some tool to rescue files? i was editing a java file, and forgot to plug the cable cord to the power.. the 3 files had open were lost. next time i opened them were only were invalid characters not belonging to any encoding. i try to browse for eclipse local history to get the latest saved version.. but miserably eclipse doesnt show local history.. if i dont recover these files, ive lost my today's work :'( | 02:01 |
| Kalel | trism: gedit or nano? | 02:01 |
| trism | Kalel: in the .progressbar {} styles | 02:01 |
| candypants | hi can anyone help me to get my wifi working, i cant connect to my AP but i can eifi tether off my phone just fine. | 02:02 |
| trism | Kalel: vim, might be on a different line if you have a different version of light-themes | 02:02 |
| ObrienDave | candypants::: reboot the AP | 02:03 |
| trism | Kalel: this is what the section looks like http://paste.ubuntu.com/6086045/ there is also one more reference to that color lower down, .level-bar.fill-block {} but progressbar sounds closer to me, though I haven't tested the change, maybe I should | 02:04 |
| ChogyDan | anyone know how to set the cpu frequency scheduler/strategy? I forget the term for it. There used to be an applet in gnome2, but I've long forgotten what it was called. Something to do with cpu frequency. If you knew the term I'm looking for, just that would be helpful | 02:05 |
| Brispere | how can I remove useless entries from grub? | 02:05 |
| Brispere | don't really feel all that safe editing grub.cfg | 02:06 |
| ObrienDave | Brispere::: D/L Grub Customizer | 02:06 |
| Brispere | alright thanks | 02:06 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel that is the color i got in gimp from thee screen shot | 02:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Brispere: or edit the /etc/grub.d/ files as needed | 02:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Brispere: what are you trying to change exactly? | 02:07 |
| Retroballa | dak once I install jockey-gtk where do I find it, running cinnamon atm | 02:07 |
| jack | hello | 02:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Retroballa: try the command line, run 'jockey-gtk' | 02:08 |
| === jack is now known as Guest4941 | ||
| Retroballa | didn't work it says run sudo apt-get install jockey-gtk but wen I do it says, already the newest version | 02:09 |
| Kalel | dakotawulfy: What color you got? | 02:09 |
| dakotawulfy | from that patebin | 02:09 |
| trism | Kalel: yep changing the one in the .progressbar section worked, but I had to log out/back in before it showed up | 02:09 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel 1234 background-color: #db6a3c; | 02:10 |
| trism | Kalel: though there might not be an exactly comparable section in the other theme, I changed it in a copy of the Ambiance theme | 02:10 |
| Dr_Willis | Retroballa: what ubuntu reelase are you using? it may be under the software-sources app, last tab. | 02:10 |
| Brispere | http://imgur.com/hmrnTtI how do i confirm these? | 02:10 |
| Retroballa | 13.04 | 02:10 |
| trism | Brispere: tab then enter | 02:11 |
| Brispere | thanks | 02:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Retroballa: run software-properties-gtk | 02:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Retroballa: the last tab | 02:11 |
| Dr_Willis | there was no need to install jockey-gtk on 13.04 I imagine. ;) it may be a empty package | 02:11 |
| trism | Kalel: do you have a link to the theme you are using? | 02:12 |
| Retroballa | the latest in there is 313 but I think there are newer ones on nvidia's site which Im finding isn't easy to install or I'm making it to hard lol | 02:13 |
| Kalel | Yes. | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Retroballa: best is to stick to whats in teh repos | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Retroballa: the addational-drivers tool will NOT show whats the latest on nvidias site | 02:13 |
| Retroballa | yep | 02:13 |
| roachmmflhyr | Dr_Willis, i solved the issue with mount --bind /source/folder /home/user/folder and only allowing sftp access | 02:13 |

| Retroballa | btw, off topic, but im glad firefox version 24 came out. Fixed my firefox full screen youtube crash | 02:14 |
| Dr_Willis | roachmmflhyr: :) seems a bit extreme. but if its what you want. ;) | 02:14 |
| Kalel | dakotawulfy: I will test it. I just have to find the right place.. | 02:14 |
| xangua | Retroballa: is already in repositories¿ | 02:15 |

| roachmmflhyr | Dr_Willis, is that bad? thats the only solution i could find online | 02:16 |
| === River-Rat is now known as RiverRat | ||
| Dr_Willis | roachmmflhyr: no idea. I am not that paranoid where i do that sort of stuff. ;) | 02:17 |
| Dr_Willis | my main trouble-making user. is a 4yr old grandson.. he can get through any security i put on any device in the house. | 02:17 |
| trism | Kalel: think I got it, Faience/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css on line 1306 there is a .progressbar {} section, I added: background-color: #ff0000; on line 1315 in that section and got a red progressbar in the osd | 02:18 |
| trism | Kalel: but there seems to be some theme caching so you might need to log out/back in before it shows up | 02:18 |
| jKlaus | Hey, anyone in here using a powerline ethernet adapter? | 02:19 |
| jKlaus | I'm in the market for one but want to talk to an owner/user first | 02:19 |
| Kalel | trism: My lines aren't with numbers.. Are you using vim? | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | jKlaus: theres #hardware, but from the reviews ive seen of those in the past.. ive always avoided them | 02:19 |
| trism | Kalel: yeah, just search for .progressbar { | 02:20 |
| trism | Kalel: it has background-color commented out by default, I just added one | 02:20 |
| Brispere | t | 02:20 |
| jKlaus | Dr_Willis.. I looked into them years ago and the review seems pretty bad.. reviews anymore seem decent.. with about all brands | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | jKlaus: of course these days. wireless is trivial to get going and cheaper i imagine. | 02:20 |
| jKlaus | Dr_Willis, yeah thats what I'm hoping at least.. need to get my mythtv out in the workshop | 02:21 |
| Carlos_Safety | so i've heard it's hard to downgrade ubuntu versions truly, but if you formatted the current partition and then installed would that work? tying to downgrade from 13.04 to 12.04 for LTS'ness | 02:21 |
| darth_damian_000 | Hey guys. Is there a way to add an IRC to account on empathy in 13.04? (IRC does not appear on the list) | 02:22 |
| naryfa | hi | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | jKlaus: workshop with powertools? ;) that may be bad. | 02:22 |
| naryfa | it's me | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | jKlaus: also depending on how the house is wired the shop may be on a swperate circuit. ive had issues with those over-the-power-line intercoms befor. | 02:23 |
| jKlaus | Dr_Willis.. I'm willing to suffer the bad reception if I'm running my sawsall.. but while I'm running my 3D printer.. | 02:23 |
| darth_damian_000 | ubuntu 13.04 ... any way to add IRC to the list of accounts on empathy? | 02:24 |
| etzer | hello all | 02:25 |
| etzer | ? | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | hellos | 02:25 |
| etzer | my wireless mouse doesn't work with the version 13 | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Dosent look like empathy supports irc. | 02:25 |
| ChogyDan | Carlos_Safety: obviously, if you format the partition and reinstall, you will sort of have a downgrade. You would just be deleting everything and starting from scratch. If you backup and restore your /home stuff, then you will make sure to save all your docs and settings. I think there can be some issues with certain apps | 02:26 |
| dakotawulfy | darth_damian_000 looks like it a bug and does not work | 02:26 |
| ChogyDan | Carlos_Safety: in that the 12.04 apps may not recognize what the 13.04 apps put into /home | 02:26 |
| dakotawulfy | darth_damian_000 u can try pidgin | 02:27 |
| trism | dakotawulfy: I think you need account-plugin-irc to use irc with empathy | 02:27 |
| Carlos_Safety | ChogyDan: oh no , data is not an issue, i'm very new to ubuntu and have barely got customizing, so if i clear /home/ totally... no problems? or... possibly yes, who knows? lol | 02:27 |
| darth_damian_000 | Thanks dakotawulfy | 02:27 |
| dakotawulfy | trism yea u do | 02:28 |
| etzer | my wireless mouse doesn't work with the version 13.04 | 02:28 |
| ChogyDan | Carlos_Safety: if there is nothing you want to save, then there is absolutely no issue. Just reformat and reinstall | 02:28 |
| dakotawulfy | but looks like it has a bug | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | etzer: and what does it do? check the output of dmesg if you plug/unplug/replug it back in? | 02:28 |
| darth_damian_000 | My next question is regarding the system. It crashes by first freezing mouse movement, and screen gets distorted (squares resembling desktop background appear). This happened 1) When I was playing freecell, 2) When I was opening a PDF file in firefox, and 3) When I zoomed in on a picture in shotwell by using the scroll wheel on my mouse. Is this also a bug or something I can fix on my end? | 02:28 |
| Kalel | trism: Ok. I did.. I will Logout and test it.. dakotawulfy, let see the result in a few seconds. Thank you two.. | 02:29 |
| Dr_Willis | etzer: is it some sort of unusual mouse? give us details so we dont have to play 20 questions | 02:29 |
| dakotawulfy | Kalel n/p | 02:30 |
| etzer | my computer is an iMac which i install windows 0n it and i partition the drive and install ubuntu 13.04 at the beginning it of the installation it's work and at the end the mouse doesn't work. it's a apple mouse that come with the computer | 02:31 |
| Levi__ | hello everyone | 02:31 |
| dakotawulfy | darth_damian_000: what video card do you have an intel ?? | 02:31 |
| darth_damian_000 | Nvidia | 02:31 |
| etzer | but it's work with the version 12.04 | 02:31 |
| Levi__ | whats the problem darth_damian_000 | 02:32 |
| dakotawulfy | etzer were u able to reboot it from the install and see if the mouse worked ? | 02:32 |
| darth_damian_000 | Simply put, the system crashes, and that happens when my activity gets intense. It crashed when I was opening a fairly large PDF file, and another instance, it happened because I was zooming in/out images on Shotwell | 02:33 |
| darth_damian_000 | the pdf file was opened in the firefox browser | 02:33 |
| randomaussie | afternoon all... would like to know how to look up the log file that would be written to every time the gui system error would you like to report window comes up | 02:33 |
| Kalel | trism: dakotawulfy: I appreciate your help guys but didn't worked. I will continue with ordinary Faience theme.. | 02:33 |
| Levi__ | very interesting | 02:33 |
| Kalel | trism: dakotawulfy: Thank you. | 02:33 |
| etzer | i did all that nothing work | 02:34 |
| trism | Kalel: one sec, let me pastebin the file I edited | 02:34 |
| trism | Kalel: which of the three themes are you using? | 02:35 |
| Kalel | trism: Faience Claire, GTK | 02:35 |
| Rblzr | hi | 02:37 |
| George_Henrique | I have a BEAGLEBONE and would like to use it with ubuntu GUI. Can I install on the sd card? | 02:37 |
| trism | Kalel: hmm, it worked for Faience but the same change isn't working in Faience Claire | 02:40 |
| Kalel | trism: So, nervermind. I think will create my own theme based on Ambience.. | 02:42 |
| Kalel | Its the best solution.. | 02:42 |
| lovelymortal | what window manager do you use? | 02:43 |
| George_Henrique | What is a good linux with gui for me to install on the sd card? | 02:43 |
| lovelymortal | any ubuntu distro will do fine | 02:43 |
| lovelymortal | or xubuntu lubuntu....etc | 02:44 |
| ObrienDave | George_Henrique::: Lighter, the better. Xubuntu or Lubuntu | 02:44 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: Install the system on sd? | 02:44 |
| naryfa | linux on an SD card is going to be slow I think | 02:44 |
| naryfa | but if you really want it, try slax maybe? | 02:44 |
| ObrienDave | I run Xubuntu from USB Stick. Slow, yes. | 02:44 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: You can try gparted with the sd into a modem mobilebrand.. Worked for me. | 02:44 |
| George_Henrique | Kalel i want for use with beaglebone | 02:45 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: With Gparted, format it to fat32, with unetbootin, create the iso to boot.. | 02:45 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: I do not know it.. | 02:45 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: If you have the iso, can proceed. | 02:46 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: Beaglebone looks like Raspberry PI.. | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | i run my raspberry pi from a sd card. ;) but it dosent run ubuntu. ;) | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | I imagine the beaglebone sites will have info on how to set up differnt disrto on it. | 02:48 |
| George_Henrique | Kalel yeah, looks like raspberry pi | 02:48 |
| George_Henrique | Dr_Willis what do you run? | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | George_Henrique: depends on which pi im on. ;) | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | PlexPi on the media-center pies.. rasbian on the desktop Pi. | 02:49 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: Already available on brazzilian stores? | 02:49 |
| George_Henrique | I want a lightweight linux, but with GUI | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | George_Henrique: theres dozens of them out there. | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | but for a beableboard - i would check what disrtos are out secifically for that device | 02:50 |
| nbros652 | Is there a way to make sshfs mounts automatically update in nautilus? I'm taking pictures with my phone and want to see pictures that are taken automatically show up in a folder on my computer without needing to refresh. Is this possible? | 02:50 |
| George_Henrique | I bought on the internet. Here in Brazil does not sell. | 02:50 |
| Kalel | Dr_Willis: rasbian, Debian based? | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | nbros652: they do automatically refresh here in nautilus i belive | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Kalel: yes. | 02:51 |
| gassho | i have problems with my keyboard | 02:51 |
| George_Henrique | The BEAGLEBONE comes with angstrom | 02:51 |
| nbros652 | Dr_Willis: I'll check again. | 02:51 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: Oh.. I really would like to import an alienware... | 02:51 |
| gassho | or rather how my computer interprets my input | 02:51 |
| gassho | but i can stop it if i let my computer make a capital letter | 02:52 |
| gassho | shift keeps 'sticking' | 02:52 |
| George_Henrique | You know how I can install gnumeric? | 02:52 |
| wilee-nilee | gassho, pull it out and clean it | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | nbros652: im monitoring file sizes on cheese on a remote box.. and it updates the size every 60 sec or so it seems | 02:52 |
| George_Henrique | Kalel where do you live? | 02:52 |
| utusan | George_Henrique: apt-get install gnumeric | 02:52 |
| * Dr_Willis checks again | 02:52 | |
| gassho | its a laptop keyboard | 02:53 |
| Kalel | George_Henrique: SP | 02:53 |
| George_Henrique | utusan in angstrom does not work ... | 02:53 |
| gassho | they got this stuck tight id have to open it | 02:53 |

| George_Henrique | Kalel Why do not you buy on the internet? | 02:53 |
| nbros652 | Dr_Willis: I'm actually looking for something a little more immediate, like every 5 seconds or so. | 02:53 |
| Kalel | #George_Henrique | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | nbros652: perhaps its not doing it via nautilus.. or im makign it do it by doing other things in the file manager. ;) | 02:54 |
| gassho | it stopped spontaneously | 02:54 |

| Dr_Willis | iampoz: under network manager. you disable dhcp and set the info manually it looks like to me. If i try to change it.. imay get disconnected. ;) | 03:07 |
| Dr_Willis | or use the route command i recall | 03:07 |
| Dr_Willis | route command shows your default gateway | 03:08 |
| Kalel | trism: Well.. Didn't worked again. Forsake! Nevermind. I am satisfied anyway with Faience. Thank you again... | 03:10 |
| iampoz | Dr_Willis, I am not sure which one to disable dhcp on, my wired connection or my wireless | 03:10 |
| Kalel | I am so much sleepy. | 03:10 |
| Kalel | Good night all!! | 03:10 |
| uronu | does windows work to connect ldap server without samba? | 03:11 |
| Dr_Willis | iampoz: no idea. Id imagine you want the default gateway to be going throgh whatever one is connected to your router. thats going to the internet | 03:11 |
| LinuxGuy2020 | Im running a headless server and I installed transmission-daemon. I added the whitelist ip address to cover my lan machines "192.168.1.*". Everytime I boot the server the web gui doesnt work. If I SSH into the server and restart the transmission daemon then the web gui works. Is there some logic to this? Right now my work around is I added a line in rc.local to restart it at boot. Is there a real fix or is this normal? It seems like a ch | 03:11 |
| iampoz | wired does not have internet, and wireless has internet. when the wired is connected, I do not have internet access, its like ubuntu will only try to access internet though the wired connection | 03:11 |
| Dr_Willis | i got a desktop with wired and wireless.. either one works ;) | 03:12 |
| Dr_Willis | why do you have both going anyway? | 03:12 |
| nbros652 | Dr_Willis: Thanks... I'll check out fam. I know it works with scp, but I would like to be able to make modifications to filenames from more than one location and not have to script the changes to cascade. | 03:12 |
| Dr_Willis | wired would be faster, so i would want that to be the default | 03:12 |
| iampoz | I am trying to connect two desktop, one windows 7 and one ubuntu 12.04 on an independent network to share files | 03:12 |
| Dr_Willis | i got a similer setup with 2 routers. ;) | 03:13 |
| Dr_Willis | lan 1 -> router 1 -> lan2 (on router 2) | 03:13 |
| iampoz | in the end they will both be wired to the internet network and wired to each other on a separate network | 03:13 |
| Dr_Willis | things on lan1 can get to the pcs on lan2. but lan2 cant get back through router 1 to get to lan1. ;) | 03:13 |
| papito | is there some tool to rescue files? i was editing a java file, and forgot to plug the cable cord to the power.. the 3 files had open were lost. next time i opened them were only were invalid characters not belonging to any encoding. i try to browse for eclipse local history to get the latest saved version.. but miserably eclipse doesnt show local history.. if i dont recover these files, ive lost my today's work :'( | 03:14 |
| Dr_Willis | i need to set router 1 to be in 'hub/switch mode' but its sort of broken and i cant get in to confiogure it. ;p | 03:14 |
| trism | Kalel: it might be different in gnome-shell, I don't know if gsd still draws it there, so it might be a different element of the theme (maybe the shell part) | 03:14 |
| trism | Kalel: in fact I don't think it does since they dropped that code in recent gsd | 03:14 |
| iampoz | interesting set up | 03:15 |
| Dr_Willis | i have pc1 with wired to router 1, and wireless to router 2. :) that way i can access it from any pc on both networks. (its a plex media server) | 03:15 |
| Dr_Willis | I need to get rid of router1.. but i dont want to change all the rokus, and things to the new router.. i change them as i get around to it. | 03:15 |
| iampoz | i see | 03:15 |
| iampoz | sounds a little more involved then what I want | 03:16 |
| iampoz | Basically, I just want to set up a network between my windows 7 computer and my ubuntu 12.04 computer | 03:16 |
| Dr_Willis | I could move everthing to router 1 rather eaially. :0 but theni got to make sure every phone, tablet, roku, raspberry pi, tv, and other devices.. are at the new router. ;) | 03:16 |
| Dr_Willis | plus the grandkids are the only ones on the other router mainly. :) so that keeps them off my other machines lan. | 03:17 |
| iampoz | enough though I have them connected to a router with no firewall or anything in between on either side or on the router itself, they just can not see each other | 03:17 |
| Dr_Willis | I recall some network diagraming tool that may help people understand your layout and help you better. | 03:18 |
| varunendra | iampoz, could you successfully add the default gateway? | 03:19 |
| iampoz | well we can start simple... even take the router out of the equation... If I hook up an Ethernet cord from my ubuntu desktop to my windows 7 desktop, shouldn’t they be able to see each other? | 03:20 |
| iampoz | varunendra, no i can not. I don’t understand why configuring the wireless connection manually will cause ubuntu to listen to it over the wired connection. | 03:21 |
| varunendra | iampoz, default gateway is the route that any OS assumes to be the 'default' path to access internet. That does not need be complex. | 03:22 |
| * rblzr yawn | 03:22 | |
| Dr_Willis | iampoz: IF theres a dhcp server on one of the pcs. in theory yes. | 03:23 |
| Dr_Willis | iampoz: checkif both have an ip. and see if they can ping each other | 03:23 |
| Dr_Willis | iampoz: also you may want to disable the windows firewall | 03:23 |
| varunendra | iampoz, try - "sudo route add default gw <your gateway's IP>" | 03:23 |
| Dr_Willis | gateway ip - is the ip of the router going to the internet. | 03:23 |
| Dr_Willis | ie: 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.10.1 (for example) | 03:24 |
| iampoz | okay, I will try that | 03:24 |
| Dr_Willis | but you dont have a router its going into? its going into a windows box? | 03:25 |
| iampoz | well I tryed and it never messed up my internet, I will connect to wired and see if I get disconnected now | 03:25 |
| Dr_Willis | this is when a diagram would be helpfull | 03:25 |
| iampoz | I typed in "sudo route add default gw 192.168.0.1", and when I connect to the wired connection, I can not access the internet | 03:26 |
| iampoz | I do have a router, but I thought for simplicty sake, I would leave it out for now, so it is just two computer wired directly to each other. I am not sure how I set up a dhcp server on one of them though so maybe that is where a router is required - all firewalls are off | 03:27 |
| dakotawulfy | iampoz 192.168.0.1 not 192.168.1.1?? | 03:27 |
| iampoz | I am pretty sure the one with the internet is 192.168.0.1 - the wired one is 192.168.1.1 | 03:28 |
| varunendra | iampoz, if you already have another default gateway defined, of course that needs to be deleted first. Check the current gateways with "route -n" | 03:29 |
| varunendra | iampoz, if there is another one, "sudo route del default gw <conflicting one>" | 03:30 |
| iampoz | some pretty weird gateways, I will put it in a pastebin | 03:30 |
| iampoz | http://pastebin.com/0LtF6VUx | 03:31 |
| iampoz | I guess I would delete the 0.0.0.0 gateways? | 03:31 |
| Retroballa | after an half-hour and watching you tube java installed haha | 03:33 |
| varunendra | no that's normal. You only have one gw at the moment. Are you sure you remain connected to wireless when you connect cable? | 03:33 |
| varunendra | iampoz, ^^ | 03:33 |
| iampoz | yes | 03:33 |
| iampoz | I will connect to the wired one and do the 'route -n' to see what happends | 03:34 |
| varunendra | iampoz, please also show us the output of "nm-tool" when both are connected. | 03:34 |
| iampoz | amd I here right now? | 03:35 |
| iampoz | am I here right now? | 03:35 |
| iampoz | seems like I am here | 03:35 |
| Retroballa | I dk where the hell I am | 03:35 |
| |Anthony| | I'm using xubuntu 12.04 and mumble 1.2.3-2ubuntu4.1 and am having issues with echo cancellation. It seems as though nothing i do actually enables echo cancellation. Is there a specific procedure i need to take to get that to work as expected? | 03:37 |
| varunendra | iampoz, you are here :D | 03:37 |
| iampoz | is it save to post pastebins with mac ids? | 03:38 |
| varunendra | iampoz, better obscure or snip it, why take chances ;) | 03:39 |
| iampoz | I guess I maintained my connection here while the wired was connected but the browser fails to load anything... I have a pastebin with route -n and nm-tool while connected to both | 03:39 |
| Ben64 | iampoz: theres nothing anyone can do with your mac address, it doesn't travel beyond the data link layer | 03:42 |
| varunendra | iampoz, unless the browser has some custom network settings, I think a log out --> re-login should fix the browser issue too (but I can't be sure). | 03:43 |

| danny4way | Is there any way to install java platform jdk on ubuntu? | 03:48 |
| danny4way | The latest version of it. I need it for school. I tried to download a file from its website but it isn't installing like on Windows | 03:48 |
| cfhowlett | !java | 03:49 |
| ubottu | To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 03:49 |
| samalex | figured i'd ask this here .. i generally run LTS versions, but are there enough gee-wiz features in 13.04 to make it worth checking out as opposed to 12.04? | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis | ExtraMt: You dont get the password back. You set a new one. ;) that applies to most every disrto ive ever seen. | 03:49 |
| wilee-nilee | danny4way, http://askubuntu.com/questions/55848/how-do-i-install-oracle-java-jdk-7 | 03:50 |
| Dr_Willis | samalex: 13.10 is comming out next month. ;) | 03:50 |
| Dr_Willis | samalex: it has a lot of gee-wiz new stuff | 03:50 |
| samalex | dr_Willis, good point.. | 03:50 |
| Dr_Willis | samalex: one of note - is much better management/controll of lenses. ;) | 03:51 |
| Dr_Willis | samalex: then theres the whole Mir thing for those that are into that stuff | 03:51 |
| wilee-nilee | danny4way, here is another. http://www.webupd8.org/2011/09/how-to-install-oracle-java-7-jdk-in.html | 03:51 |
| wilee-nilee | a bit easier this one | 03:52 |
| danny4way | I actually have to install many software for my AP JAVA class. It requires me to have Java JDK and JCreator | 03:52 |
| cfhowlett | danny4way, maybe install windows in virtualbox and put java there? | 03:53 |
| samalex | Dr_Willis, yeah I've been reading about mir, it'll be weird changing, heck I still miss xfree86 :) | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | samalex: i dont miss having to constantly edit my xorg.conf ;P | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | even twinview automatically gets enabled for me now a days | 03:53 |
| danny4way | Do you think Virtualbox might slow my computer down? I used to have windows on my laptop but windows is too much for my laptop to handle so i moved to Ubuntu and it's a lot smoother to use | 03:54 |
| danny4way | cfhowlett | 03:54 |
| samalex | I have a love/hate relationship with xorg.conf, over the years of using Linux i've learned how to tweak my system rather well using it ... but i guess mir makes it easier to configure? | 03:54 |
| Dr_Willis | danny4way: depends on what all you do in the vbox. :) | 03:54 |
| samalex | i've not used it | 03:54 |
| cfhowlett | danny4way, it won't run at native speed. | 03:54 |
| === rsw is now known as Guest60116 | ||
| danny4way | Well. I won't mind if it isn't too slow. | 03:54 |
| varunendra | iampoz, one thing you can try is to set "Method" for your wired connection to "Automatic (DHCP) address only". Leave the DNS and gateway fields empty since you'd be using wifi for Internet. | 03:54 |
| iampoz | okay I will try that | 03:55 |
| samalex | wonder if I insatlled 13.10 RC now i it'd gracefully upgrade to full 13.10 when it's released... never done that, but I really want to reload soon. | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | samalex: thats how its supposed to work | 03:55 |
| danny4way | I can try it out but installing softwares on my computer is due the day after tomorrow so iam like figuring out how to actually install it properly. | 03:55 |

| Q_Continuum | Activating Proprietary Drivers on 12.04 with an AMD E-300 APU; I have 4 FGLRX driver options; 3 that are experimental (1 of these tagged for 2D only) and a 'post-release updates' - the two experimentals that aren't for 2D are both tagged as 12.11 drivers by the Release Notes - how to ID which one to activate? | 03:56 |
| iampoz | I am thinking about looking for some type of product that I can connect a few hard drives to which can be access by both eSATA and an ethernet cable... i hope that exists | 03:57 |
| Q_Continuum | I recall previous Ubuntu releases giving more info on what each one was :-/ | 03:57 |
| varunendra | iampoz, after changing that, do - "sudo service networking restart" and "sudo service network-manager restart". | 03:57 |
| iampoz | okay | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | iampoz: ive seen hard drive enclosures that are esata, or usb3. cant say ive really noticed any with NAS/network ports. | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | iampoz: i THINK i had one that was like that. ages ago. but it was a very weird sort of nas. ;) | 03:58 |
| varunendra | iampoz, an ancient thread with a possible solution : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1474098 | 03:59 |
| anton02 | is anyone running KDE 4.11.1 | 03:59 |
| Q_Continuum | ethernet cable = more than JBOD, you need a (small) server in it to be a NAS/etc | 03:59 |
| randomaussie | hi all... any anyone link me to a wat to view the gui "report a problem" logs. they keep popping up and google isnt helping me | 03:59 |
| anton02 | does drive auto mount and detect still work for you | 03:59 |
| Dr_Willis | randomaussie: thats the apport service. or was it apreport | 03:59 |
| Dr_Willis | randomaussie: i tend to just disable it. ;) | 03:59 |
| randomaussie | Dr_willis: i wanted to find what was causing the problem and try to fix it "internal error" i think it says | 04:00 |
| Dr_Willis | randomaussie: thats just the standard 'somthing crashed' message.. ive seen them pop up for somthing that was updated days befor. ;) | 04:01 |
| randomaussie | Dr_Willis: i have one now... "system program problem detected" | 04:01 |
| randomaussie | of so just ignore it? | 04:01 |
| randomaussie | oh** | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | randomaussie: just a generic 'somthing crashed' | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | ignore it.. see if it keeps comming back up, or send a report | 04:02 |
| randomaussie | yeah pops up every now and then | 04:02 |
| randomaussie | thats why i wanted to know if thre was a log file i could look at to work out what keeps crashing | 04:02 |
| Dr_Willis | about the only thing i do with apport is disable it ;) i imagine theres some logs somewhere. Id have to look it up on askubuntu.com to figure out where. heh | 04:04 |
| randomaussie | Dr_willis: keep forgetting to put your name first.... it pops up | 04:04 |
| randomaussie | i'll have a look at ask reddit myself | 04:04 |
| randomaussie | derp i mean ask ubuntu | 04:05 |
| randomaussie | guess what i'm doing on the side :) | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | http://askubuntu.com/questions/93457/how-do-i-enable-or-disable-apport has some info and links on the topic it seems | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport | 04:06 |
| iampoz | okay this worked: Under IPv4, click "Routes..." and then check the box that says "Use this connection only for resources on its network." | 04:07 |
| iampoz | that is all I had to do, now I am connected to both and I can access the internet | 04:07 |
| iampoz | are the proper defaults are set for the proper devices. Thank you varunendra | 04:08 |

| blueredturtle | random question: is there a way to start X on the actual monitor plugged into a machine when SSH'd into it from elsewhere? | 04:11 |

| researcher | wilee-nilee: thanks | 04:14 |
| wilee-nilee | no prob | 04:14 |
| Dr_Willis | blueredturtle: if you give the right options to X, and dont have X forwarding enabled. yes - should be doable | 04:14 |
| blueredturtle | Dr_Willis: hm okay (slightly simplified the problem, trying to start javafx jar on a raspberrypi - which accesses the frame buffer on the pi instead of X) | 04:16 |
| Dr_Willis | blueredturtle: if X forwarding is not enabled (not thta it would matter i guess) it shoulkd work | 04:17 |
| Dr_Willis | blueredturtle: ive ran omxplayer on my pi that way | 04:17 |
| Dr_Willis | sshed in, ran omxplayer video.avi, it showed on the pi | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | if it was a X application. You would need to have your DISPLAY set to be the pi's display. and have X forarding off (i think) and allow the access via the xhost + command I seem to recall. | 04:19 |
| blueredturtle | Dr_Willis: hm, maybe I'm doing something then | 04:19 |

My days havn't been so good I am obliged to use windows because my Iburst usb modem is freezing my ubuntu 13.04 kernel 3.8.0 i installed the ibdriver-dkms and everything works fine my system recognizes and initiallizes the usb modem but after i connect the whole system freezes and have to !reisub | 04:31 |
| Wolfium | I need to return to linux help plz | 04:31 |
| cfhowlett | Wolfium, so don't use the modem? | 04:32 |
| wilee-nilee | Wolfium, or get one that works | 04:32 |

| Wolfium | how would i access the net | 04:32 |
| Wolfium | ? | 04:32 |
| cfhowlett | Wolfium, there are cheap wifi dongles on amazon ... | 04:32 |
| Dr_Willis | this is some sort of 3g modem? or what exactly? | 04:32 |
| varunendra | Wolfium, is it actually a modem (3g/4g) or a wifi adapter? | 04:33 |
| Wolfium | it simply a wifi iburst modem | 04:33 |
| Dr_Willis | I need about 4 more cheap wifi dongles. ;) | 04:33 |
| Dr_Willis | the term 'wifi modem' seems sort of.. contradictory | 04:33 |

| null_dev | Hi | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | null_dev, greetings | 04:54 |
| null_dev | Is there a channel where I can find more information on gMTP? | 04:54 |
| null_dev | I have this error log when trying to use it with my new phone. http://pastebin.com/P8RLrCTd | 04:55 |
| Ben64 | what is gMTP | 04:55 |
| null_dev | It's a GUI for navigating lipmtp with MP3 players and phones. | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis | hmm. | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis | A simple MP3 and Media player client for UNIX and UNIX like systems. | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | http://gmtp.sourceforge.net/ | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | !find gmtp | 04:56 |
| ubottu | Found: gmtp | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | !info gmtp | 04:56 |
| ubottu | gmtp (source: gmtp): simple MP3 player client for MTP based devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.4-1 (raring), package size 121 kB, installed size 402 kB | 04:56 |
| null_dev | Thanks Dr_Willis. Any ideas on what issues I might be having? I'm running Ubuntu 13.04 with a Samsung Galaxy S3 which is not rooted. | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis | not a clue. I dont bother with such apps to get stuff to my S3. I use airdroid. ;) | 04:58 |
| null_dev | I thought Airdroid wasn't for Unix like systems? | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | You put airdroid on the phone/tablet. then use any os, and any browser to connect to the phone | 04:59 |
| cfhowlett | null_dev, eh? airdroid is browser based and OS agnostic | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | No need for anything other then a browser on the pc ;) | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | I use it all the time. ;P | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | it beats using usb cables and trying to mount the phone. | 05:00 |
| * cfhowlett ... co-signs the good Doctor's sage wisdom. | 05:00 | |
| TsarObomba | I had a user with lets say name "foo", well long story short, I had to delete the user, so I deleted and recreated it. But upon login via ssh I get a message about my group id | 05:00 |
| null_dev | cfhowlett Dr_Willis Awesome. I'll just get rid of gMTP and give that a whirl. Thanks! | 05:00 |
| TsarObomba | groups: cannot find name for group ID 1001 | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Im not even sure that that gMTP is the same 'mtp' that android uses. | 05:00 |
| TsarObomba | What do I do to fix it? | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | I defainatly have never needed to use somthing like gmtp to get muzak to my phone | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Phone = a little bitty pc. ;) and i treat it like one. heh. | 05:01 |
| TsarObomba | is it because my last user of the same name was 1001? | 05:01 |
| TsarObomba | Should I change my UID and GID to 1002 instead? | 05:01 |
| TsarObomba | or just GID rather | 05:02 |
| TsarObomba | dont think uid can be changed | 05:02 |
| TsarObomba | hmm, that worked | 05:02 |
| Dr_Willis | the initial user has a UID of 1000, a new user should be 1001 | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | but you deleted the user first. Hmm. ;) not sure what that would do. | 05:04 |
| === Companion is now known as companion | ||
| null_dev | Hmm. | 05:05 |
| null_dev | Okay, now I've got the AirDroid app on my phone, but it says when I go to the website, 'Faile to load configuration file, click OK to sign in again. | 05:05 |
| null_dev | Clicking OK just brings me back to that same error message. | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | what web site? I just run the airdroid app. (my phone is connected to my local lan) and then punch in the ip#/port it says on my pcs browser | 05:06 |
| cfhowlett | null_dev, go to the airdroid site. | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | it has a feature to connect over the internet. but i never use it that way | 05:06 |
| cfhowlett | null_dev, I login via camera NFC | 05:07 |
| null_dev | cfhowlett I'm at web.airdroid.com | 05:07 |
| ObrienDave | or scan the QR code | 05:07 |
| cfhowlett | null_dev, and both devices must be on the same wifi network | 05:07 |
| Dr_Willis | cant say ive tried the NFC/Qrcode method. ;) | 05:07 |
| null_dev | We are. | 05:07 |
| Dr_Willis | That woule be neat to get that NFC/Beaming feature working from my PC to my Phone. ;) i only do that NFC stuff from phone to tablet. | 05:08 |
| null_dev | cfhowlett Okay, I created an account with airdroid. I went to their site. By clearing my cache I was able to get past that weird feature, but now their site is a fuzzy image of what appears to be a lake with some island on the end of it at sunset. There is a toolbar up top with some tools, but no login feature or any picture to scan. | 05:12 |
| cfhowlett | null_dev, take a peek at your phone to see if you actually connected. also, consider bouncing this to #android as it seems to NOT be an ubuntu issue. | 05:14 |
| Dr_Willis | i never really go to their site. ;) | 05:15 |
| null_dev | cfhowlett Okay, thanks. | 05:15 |
| cfhowlett | null_dev, if you're connected, you'll see an android green paper airplane in the upper left phone screen | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | phone on local network pc on local network.. type in ip and port in firefox. Phone pops up an 'accept/deny' dialog. | 05:16 |
| null_dev | cfhowlett I see that. | 05:16 |
| null_dev | Dr_Willis I'm not quite sure I understood what you meant. | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | i run airdroid on tablet.. it shows a 'open web address' | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | http://web.airdroid.com OR <---- http://192.168.1.100:8888 | 05:17 |
| === LoganG is now known as LoganG|off | ||
| Dr_Willis | I enter the url and port in my browser.. and connect | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | I never use the web.airdroid.com when the thing is on the same local lan | 05:18 |
| sonnet420 | Hello room | 05:19 |
| Nimble | hi sonnet420 | 05:19 |
| Dr_Willis | you only have a 100mb limit it seems if you access airdroid over the internet. | 05:19 |
| null_dev | using the IP and Port address timed out. | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | check firewall i guess? ive only used that way. | 05:20 |
| sonnet420 | anybody know why, when i unplug my laptop the screen flickers every like 30 seconds but no problem when it's plugged in | 05:21 |
| cfhowlett | Dr_Willis, that's true. I think it resets every 30 days | 05:21 |
| Dr_Willis | yep. they have a pay service for 1gb a month | 05:22 |
| Dr_Willis | with some extra fetures | 05:22 |
| sonnet420 | i used the vid drivers from amd | 05:22 |
| Dr_Willis | i use airdroid to transfer over several gb of video files at a time to my tablet. ;) | 05:23 |
| sonnet420 | anybody have the same issue or know a solution? | 05:23 |
| Dr_Willis | sounds like some power saveing mode kicking in. | 05:24 |
| Dr_Willis | it dident do it with the open sourced drivers? | 05:24 |
| null_dev | sonnet420 Check power saving methods, I believe there's a slider bar for the fade in/ fade out on the screen going dark. | 05:24 |
| sonnet420 | when i try those ones that are in the system settings area, it won't even boot the computer | 05:24 |
| sonnet420 | it's not the fade, it's like the screen refreshes every 30 seconds | 05:25 |
| sonnet420 | i've tried the beta drivers and the other ones in the vid driver section in system settings | 05:25 |
| Nimble | does it happen on windows? (if you use windows) | 05:26 |
| sonnet420 | nope | 05:26 |
| rscnt | someone need help? | 05:26 |
| sonnet420 | just in ubuntu | 05:26 |
| sonnet420 | not on my other linux distro's | 05:26 |
| rscnt | oh | 05:26 |
| rscnt | arch? | 05:27 |
| sonnet420 | but this driver is the only one that i can get 3d rendering to play any games | 05:27 |
| Nimble | does it happen on other drivers? | 05:27 |
| sonnet420 | scared to try | 05:27 |
| Nimble | lol | 05:27 |
| Nimble | are you using the proprietary amd drivers? | 05:27 |
| sonnet420 | when i first installed ubuntu, i'd change the driver.. then poof upon reboot i couldn't access my os | 05:28 |
| Nimble | could you at least get to a shell? | 05:28 |
| sonnet420 | i don't think so, it's been a month | 05:28 |
| Nimble | so what would happen? | 05:29 |
| Nimble | the kernel would fail to boot? | 05:29 |
| rscnt | reinstall#windows | 05:29 |
| null_dev | Logging into the website with my phone, I can see that I'm missing the sign in page as well as the QR Code entirely. | 05:29 |
| sonnet420 | i had to re-install the os 4 different times trying to change the adapter, finally went online and got proprietary drivers from amd and i have 3d acceleration i had to get rid of the watermark also | 05:30 |
| Nimble | I mean, when you reboot would it just be a blank screen? | 05:30 |
| sonnet420 | it'd go to the ubuntu grub | 05:30 |
| sonnet420 | but once i hit enter..poof | 05:30 |
| Nimble | what would happen next? would the ubuntu logo appear? | 05:31 |
| Nimble | some text? | 05:31 |
| sonnet420 | it'd load to a black screen | 05:31 |
| sonnet420 | no logo.. no text | 05:31 |
| cfhowlett | !nomodeset | 05:31 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 05:31 |
| Nimble | what the bot said | 05:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. airdroid website worked fine for me also null_dev ;) | 05:32 |
| sonnet420 | lol so that will give it a generic driver then tho right | 05:32 |
| Dr_Willis | null_dev: first time ive ever been to it. | 05:32 |
| Nimble | at least you could boot far enough to figure out what is wrong | 05:32 |
| sonnet420 | right | 05:32 |
| * null_dev sighs. "Okay. I'm going to try it with add ons disabled. Thanks Dr_Willis, cfhowlett." | 05:32 | |
| Dr_Willis | hmm. got flashblock and adblock both going here. ;) | 05:33 |
| Dr_Willis | cant say ive ever had any addons cause issues | 05:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Now that airdroid service would be so COOL if say Ubuntu One sort of had a serice like it to go with their cloud service. | 05:34 |
| null_dev | Disabled addons, now it's working. | 05:35 |
| Dr_Willis | what addon was causing the issue? | 05:35 |
| Dr_Willis | no javascript? | 05:35 |
| null_dev | Don't know yet, I just restarted with all addons disabled. | 05:35 |
| bouma | is there a good replacement for the 'file search' gui program.. it seems unreasonably inefficient | 05:35 |
| bouma | or alternative | 05:35 |
| Dr_Willis | !info catfish | 05:35 |
| ubottu | catfish (source: catfish): a versatile file searching tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.3-0ubuntu1 (raring), package size 71 kB, installed size 585 kB | 05:35 |
| bouma | thank you | 05:35 |
| Dr_Willis | catfish - is what xubuntu uses i belive | 05:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Not sure what Lubuntu has. | 05:36 |
| Dr_Willis | theres most likely others | 05:36 |
| Dr_Willis | then theres the good old find, and locate commands. ;) | 05:36 |
| Dr_Willis | I really rarely use any of them. :) i try to stay organized | 05:36 |
| bouma | right, but i do not have or want a prebuilt index (need to get through a bunch of different hdds) | 05:37 |
| sonnet420 | another question | 05:37 |
| Dr_Willis | i do recall that locate can set up user defined index's :) so if you had a HD of a lot of videos, you could have locate index that once. then search the index as needed | 05:37 |
| sonnet420 | i'd like the home folder encrypted, but didn't choose the option when i installed it | 05:37 |
| Dr_Willis | which is a overlooked feature of locate | 05:37 |
| sonnet420 | i've tried this migrate command line thing to no avail | 05:38 |
| bouma | Dr_Willis: does locate cope with changing mount points ? | 05:39 |
| smw94 | i've downloaded and install libreoffice 4.0.5 but the apps is not found, i've downgraded from 4.1.1 before, any help ? | 05:40 |
| Dr_Willis | bouma: i wouldent think so. Unless it was part of a path it was also searching. | 05:40 |
| Dr_Willis | ie: /media/stuff vs /media/stuff2 ;) | 05:40 |
| Dr_Willis | but i think locate by default ignores /media/ so thats a bad example | 05:40 |
| bouma | Dr_Willis: also, if you are familiar with catfish, do you know how to do a * search. it appears you need a constraining term | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | bouma: i rarely use any of those things. I just recall seeing catfish on the xubuntu install i did an hr ago. ;) | 05:41 |
| sonnet420 | Any one have experience with the home folder encryption | 05:41 |
| null_dev | So no one knows why it would fail to load the configuration file? | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | sonnet420: seen a lot of people have BAD experiences with it. ;) | 05:41 |
| sonnet420 | that's not good then lol | 05:41 |
| bouma | Dr_Willis: i suppose the same applies to the ctrl-f nautilus search. how to use wildcards ? | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | sonnet420: i stay away from it. :) | 05:42 |
| Dr_Willis | bouma: never noticed. or tried. I imagine the tools may support regular expressions some how | 05:42 |
| sonnet420 | probably best to just keep an encrypted folder instead then huh | 05:42 |
| sonnet420 | if i encrypt the folder with an outside program would it affect my login? | 05:42 |
| Dr_Willis | catfish can use * - or so the docs say. | 05:43 |
| Dr_Willis | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Catfish | 05:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Catfish is Graphical User Interface for many different search tools such as find and locate. | 05:44 |
| Dr_Willis | aparently catfish supports --> find, (s)locate, doodle, tracker, beagle, strigi and pinot | 05:45 |
| Dr_Willis | now i have trippled my knowledge of catfish. ;) | 05:45 |
| Dr_Willis | !info catfish | 05:46 |
| ubottu | catfish (source: catfish): a versatile file searching tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.3-0ubuntu1 (raring), package size 71 kB, installed size 585 kB | 05:46 |
| null_dev | It was noscript, even though I had it set to allow all scripts globally | 05:47 |
| bouma | but not regular expressions it appears.. and neither does the ctrl-f nautilus search | 05:48 |
| bouma | its wierd cause nautilus has the ctrl-s feature which mentions (omg) *.* | 05:48 |
| bouma | but ctrl-f, and say, *.mp4 does nothing.. although mp4 works for mp4's, there is no way to do * | 05:49 |
| Dr_Willis | one of the catfish sites mentions 6.1 has 'improved wildcard support' :) but i cant really find any docs on what wildcards it supports | 05:50 |
| bouma | http://askubuntu.com/questions/81740/how-to-use-enhance-the-nautilus-search-option | 05:50 |
| bouma | this is the first question, but two people helpfully appear to answer by telling to use something else (gnome-search-tool) or to do something else instead | 05:51 |
| Dr_Willis | nautiuls dosent have the feature.. so it dosent have the feature. ;) | 05:51 |
| bouma | its almost risible. and i have loved linux and opensource software for 10yr+, but.. | 05:52 |
| Dr_Willis | part of the general trend at dumbing things down for the lowest-skilled users. | 05:53 |
| geirha | bouma: Minor nitpicking; *.mp4 is a glob pattern, not a regular expression. | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | ;) globby! | 05:53 |
| bouma | geirha: thanks, nomenclature can be power | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | I got the book 'mastering regular expressions' :) i just found it in the garrage today | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | eery time i reread it.. i learn somthing new. | 05:54 |
| geirha | The main problem with regular expressions is that nearly every command/program use a different dialect | 05:55 |
| bouma | this is silly though, i could probably get some immediate solution with find. and im using irssi now, and like the commandline for lots of stuff. but i just want a list i cant sort with gui attribute tabs | 05:55 |
| bouma | *i can sort | 05:55 |

| === Guest47673 is now known as keplr | ||
| bouma | geirha: yes, and in this case if nautilus does support globs or re it does it in a way that is different from the ctrl-s pattern select feature | 06:05 |
| geirha | You can apparently add a filetype criteria to the search; but it seems pretty useless since you have to search for something first before those options become available. | 06:07 |
| energizer1 | Hello, can I get some help filing a bug report? I've never done it before. | 06:14 |
| Dr_Willis | !bug | 06:14 |
| Dr_Willis | bot is dead? :() egads | 06:14 |
| energizer1 | i imagine the bot will tell me to read the ubuntu.com community page | 06:15 |
| Dr_Willis | check the bug reports page and se eif its allready been filed, and any fixs have been released | 06:15 |
| Dr_Willis | that would be step 1 i imagine | 06:15 |
| energizer1 | i havent found anything for it on launchpad, but ive found an ubuntu forums post which is exactly the problem im having (and it is weird) | 06:15 |
| Dr_Willis | also check askubuntu.com to see if others have had the same issue. post your fix to their question , would be a nice thing to do also. | 06:15 |
| energizer1 | (and the solution provided works) | 06:15 |
| energizer1 | its this thing: http://askubuntu.com/questions/296801/aboutblank-opens-in-chromium-when-i-type-into-the-dash | 06:16 |
| energizer1 | ya their solution does work. but this problem shouldn't happen in the first place, which i think makes it a bug | 06:16 |
| somsip | energizer1: that's old. Are you sure it's not been FITNR? | 06:16 |
| energizer1 | im 13.04 | 06:17 |
| energizer1 | i guess it couldve been in saucy but i havent encountered anything on launchpad | 06:17 |
| Dr_Willis | heh - i got that same bug on my one pc.. :) | 06:18 |
| Dr_Willis | i just never ntoiced what was making chromium open at times | 06:18 |
| Dr_Willis | i dident even type into it.. | 06:18 |
| Dr_Willis | its not affecting my 13.10 box's however. | 06:18 |
| somsip | energizer1: ah - I read it as a chromium bug. My bad. Maybe worth logging the bug then, but you might find it has been addressed in prep for 13.10 | 06:18 |
| somsip | energizer1: bugs aren't always fixed in response to a report, so it's possible it has been addressed | 06:19 |
| energizer1 | Dr_Willis: you think it's been fixed in saucy? | 06:20 |
| energizer1 | i was looking forward to contributing something :( | 06:20 |
| Dr_Willis | energizer1: it aparently only kicks in when your credentials for online accounts get messed up. I have that red gear that shows they are messed up on 13.10 :) | 06:21 |
| somsip | energizer1: still file it. You might just find it gets closed as FITNR that's all | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | but i MAY have 'include online results' turned off. | 06:21 |
| bouma | geirha: yeah who ever wrote the gui + search constrain features when it appears you cannot do a universal search, um well i appreciate their effort but .. ahem | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | I have include online results on.. So it does seem to be fixed in 13.10 energizer1 | 06:22 |
| entangled|home | ohai everyone | 06:22 |
| energizer1 | somsip: Dr_Willis: so i run ubuntu-bug and tell it "other problem" and it tells me that i need to specify a PID, but i dont know what PID i should use | 06:23 |
| energizer1 | Dr_Willis: hm will i guess if its fixed then so it goes | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | energizer1: no idea really. PID changes each time you run an app. ;) | 06:23 |
| somsip | energizer1: I have no experience of that, so I can't help | 06:23 |
| entangled|home | so, I come from an age of editing menu.lst.... perhaps someone can inform me of the best way to go about adding nodmraid to my boot options without destroying grub2? | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | entangled|home: /etc/default/grub theres a default options line i belive. | 06:24 |
| Dr_Willis | entangled|home: it should mention 'quiet splash' | 06:24 |
| energizer1 | Dr_Willis: somsip: oh, do you not normally file with ubuntu-bug? how do you like to do it? | 06:24 |
| entangled|home | holy crap | 06:24 |
| Dr_Willis | energizer1: i rarely file bug reports. ;) i tend to skim them and confirm others | 06:24 |
| * entangled|home is a fool | 06:24 | |
| entangled|home | thanks man | 06:24 |
| somsip | energizer1: I don't remember the last time I found a bug. Probably directly to launchpad if I did | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash " | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | entangled|home: :) the grub2 docs/wiki/forum posts show ots of neat tricks heh | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | entangled|home: dont forget to rerun 'sudo update-grub' after editing the file | 06:25 |
| entangled|home | a thousand times thank you | 06:25 |
| energizer1 | alright, im gonna let sleeping dawgs lie. thanks yall | 06:25 |

| Dr_Willis | I work for Chrysler ;) | 06:31 |
| aeon-ltd | *assuming | 06:31 |
| entangled|home | I work for an IT consulting firm | 06:31 |
| energizer1 | Dr_Willis: as a computer person? | 06:32 |
| entangled|home | we specialize in delivering MS solutions. lol | 06:32 |
| === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away | ||
| energizer1 | entangled|home: hahaha | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis | energizer1: i barely touch a comptuer at work.. :) well for my job.. I chat on my phone/tablet all day | 06:32 |

| Dr_Willis | 06:33 | |
| Dr_Willis | According to the GRUB manual, the first note is a 'tempo', and each following pair of numbers are duration and pitch. | 06:33 |
| energizer1 | well that's interesting. | 06:33 |
| Dr_Willis | oops - mispaste :) | 06:33 |
| FloodBot1 | Dr_Willis: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:33 |
| aeon-ltd | that's cool | 06:34 |
| aeon-ltd | now to make the windows jingle | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | ive only found 2 tunes. Imperial Death march, and mario bro.s ;) | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | i pasted the imperal one above | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | note that this does NOT always work on all pcs. I definatly have some that aparently cant beep from grub. (no built in speaker?) | 06:35 |
| * entangled|home adds imperial to his grub config | 06:35 | |
| Dr_Willis | and if you get the tune wrong.. you do NOT get a grub menu untill the tune is done. | 06:35 |
| entangled|home | lol | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | i got some # wrong once. so it played a steady beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep for like 4 min. ;) | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | then it booted | 06:36 |
| aeon-ltd | ok | 06:36 |
| energizer1 | this sounds like a fun project: midi-> grub converter | 06:37 |
| Dr_Willis | there is that 'beep' command that can also play tunes. | 06:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ive put that in rc.local befor. | 06:38 |
| entangled|home | Dr_Willis, thanks again for the quick expertise. I just booted this install and realized I was borked a bit. | 06:38 |
| Dr_Willis | but the syntax i belive is differnt then the grub stuff. - and again. some times it dont work. if the pc has no built in speaker | 06:38 |
| Dr_Willis | ive had headless servers setup where they play a tune. so i know when they are fully booted up. ;) | 06:39 |
| Dr_Willis | or have them eject/retract the cd tray.. | 06:39 |
| entangled|home | So, how active is this channel usually? I see lots of new users popping in, but I assume that is due to this being a default chan for xchat in Ubuntu | 06:39 |
| Dr_Willis | this is the main ubuntu support channel entangled|home so its quiet active at times | 06:40 |
| Dr_Willis | it is 3am in the usa. ;) so its a slow time now. | 06:40 |
| entangled|home | Sweet. I will hang around and offer what I can | 06:40 |
| Dr_Willis | on release day - this place is a madhouse | 06:40 |

| Dr_Willis | i tend to stay off IRC for that week. | 06:40 |
| entangled|home | hey, I am USA Central time. It's only 1:30 here | 06:40 |
| NuSuey | guys, anybody know why is the displayport/hdmi audio set as default everytime I reboot my pc? how can I setup that my speakers will be the output (default output) .. | 06:41 |
| entangled|home | I frequent several other channels though. #cisco is really helpful | 06:41 |
| NuSuey | fyi.. its 08:41am here :P europe | 06:41 |
| entangled|home | NuSuey, what does the future hold? More of the same I assume. | 06:43 |

| NuSuey | (weird question, weird answer) | 06:44 |
| MoL0ToV | i have a problem with xscreensaver, don't authenticate even with correct password | 06:44 |
| === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away | ||
| entangled|home | NuSuey, I assume one can change the default audio device but I am still stuck in an era of alsaconf and that does not translate to pulse so well | 06:45 |
| Dr_Willis | MoL0ToV: what keyboard layout are you using? | 06:45 |
| MoL0ToV | italian | 06:45 |
| MoL0ToV | but password is only of letters and numbers | 06:45 |
| Dr_Willis | MoL0ToV: perhaps the screensaver is using a differnt layout. | 06:45 |
| NuSuey | entangled|home: I can change it ..but everytime I reboot it sets the default output as the hdmi output :/ | 06:45 |
| Dr_Willis | other then that. no ideas MoL0ToV | 06:45 |
| Dr_Willis | NuSuey: :) hmm. i had to do the reverse for a long time.. but now it uses hdmi and thatsa what i need | 06:46 |
| MoL0ToV | Dr_Willis, is possible that authenticator don't work with xscreensaver? | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis | NuSuey: i have noticed it defaults to the analog - if i have a headphone plugged in. | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis | MoL0ToV: what 'authenticator' ? you mean where it asks for your password to unlock? | 06:46 |
| MoL0ToV | yes | 06:47 |
| Dr_Willis | I tend to disable the lock on screensaver. so never ntoiced it working or not | 06:47 |
| MoL0ToV | i need it it's a public installation | 06:47 |
| Dr_Willis | try the gnome-screensavers and not xscreensacers and see if they work perhaps. | 06:48 |
| NuSuey | Dr_Willis: ah :P well I'm happy that with the open source (amd/ati) drivers I can have hdmi working on my internal gpu (since I have a 6850 + some internal graphic card) + audio .. which never worked with the ati/amd drivers.. so I'm HAPPY that it works and performance is quite good .. so it isn't a BIG issue.. but it sucks :P | 06:48 |
| entangled|home | NuSuey, at least you know enough to know how to change it. Why not make a script that runs on boot to set the default if you can't get the system to do it for you? | 06:49 |
| NuSuey | entangled|home: yeah, just didn't had the time...and was wondering if there isn't another option to set it up in ubuntu | 06:49 |
| entangled|home | it's a little kludgy, but it will save you 10 seconds or so | 06:49 |
| MoL0ToV | Dr_Willis, also gnome screensaver don't work | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis | http://askubuntu.com/questions/59577/replace-xscreensaver-with-gnome-screensaver-xubuntu | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis | MoL0ToV: you mean it dosent accept the pasw3word or dosent startup? | 06:51 |
| entangled|home | Not knowing any better or having done the requisite research I would just add a script to boot and call it good | 06:51 |
| MoL0ToV | it dosent accept the pasw3word | 06:52 |
| NuSuey | entangled|home: yeah, haven't done any scripts so far ..but saw some post somebody trying to do that ..so I guess I'll research and then implement it :P | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis | http://askubuntu.com/questions/128785/lock-screen-password-incorrect MoL0ToV - perhaps a fix.. | 06:52 |
| NuSuey | btw, I was always under the impresion that the open source drivers (amd/ati) are shitty :o dumb me | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | MoL0ToV: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingScreenLocking | 06:53 |
| NuSuey | performance is great, audio/hdmi from the other internal card works.. well.. everything is great :P | 06:53 |
| entangled|home | well it is really late here. Goodnight all. | 06:59 |

| Dr_Willis | e5143C93: you know how to get it one time? | 07:05 |
| Dr_Willis | if so how? ;) | 07:05 |

| sgronblom | I heard there is some problems related to EFI | 08:09 |
| sgronblom | But there is no mention of this on the official Ubuntu download/installation instructions | 08:10 |
| tutak | blazemore, so should i repeat the steps? | 08:12 |
| tutak | ok its getting downloaded now... | 08:18 |
| Axlin | sgronblom, I got mine to boot by writing the image to the USB thumb drive with dd and installing rEFIt on my MacBook prior to booting off the thumb drive. | 08:18 |
| sgronblom | Axlin: I saw that rEFIt is discontinued though | 08:21 |
| Axlin | Is it? Well, still worked for me. | 08:22 |
| sgronblom | Axlin: Was the process easy? | 08:23 |
| Axlin | sgronblom: Yeah. It has an installer. | 08:23 |
| sgronblom | http://refit.sourceforge.net/ Well "no longer actively maintained" | 08:23 |
| sgronblom | And then the rest of the ubuntu install was just like a good old install? | 08:24 |
| sgronblom | I found some looooooooooong page about installing about EFI booting on OS X and decided not to do it when I saw it included manually configuring xorg.conf | 08:25 |
| Axlin | It should be, but you should partition your HDD in OS X via Disk Utility, not during the Ubuntu installer, or you might run into issues. | 08:25 |
| Axlin | Yeah, which is why rEFIt is nice. Run the installer, and you're set. | 08:26 |
| sgronblom | Axlin: What if I just wipe the whole thing? | 08:26 |
| sgronblom | Axlin: Are you dual booting? | 08:26 |
| Axlin | I'm dual booting, yeah. If your'e single booting just Ubuntu, this should help you out. https://wiki.debian.org/MacBook#Single_boot_.2BIBM_Debian_only | 08:27 |
| sgronblom | Axlin: That page says "Here's a report: it doesn't work. Deleting the MacOS partition causes the system bootloader to not find anything to boot, even rEFIt. DO NOT DO THIS. --frozencemetery" | 08:28 |
| Axlin | I think that's referring to the second part, as the first section tells you to resize the OS X partition down to 1 GB. | 08:29 |
| alarkam | hi | 08:29 |
| reisio | hi | 08:30 |
| Axlin | sgronblom: Quite honestly you'll probably have an easier time just setting up a dual boot environment, and shrink down OS X as much as you can. Then you don't have to worry about any of that. | 08:31 |
| Axlin | sgronblom: When you turn your computer on, rEFIt will present you with two icons which denote OS X and Ubuntu. You select it with your arrow keys and you're on your way. | 08:31 |
| alarkam | How do I get on the Metro interface in Windows 8 on Ubuntu 13.4 | 08:31 |

| DamienCassou | hi | 08:46 |
| DamienCassou | I've been using Ubuntu for years without much problems. I can plug an external monitor to my laptop and it works fine. But, the Displays utility and xrandr can't detect beamers anymore (it used to work with previous ubuntu versions). | 08:47 |
| reisio | beamers? | 08:47 |
| llutz | aka "video projector" | 08:48 |
| reisio | heh | 08:48 |
| DamienCassou | reisio: beamer = external projector (I think :-)) | 08:50 |
| reisio | you think? :p wasn't it you who said it, heh | 08:50 |
| DamienCassou | anyone has an idea why xrandr and Displays won't list the beamer? | 08:50 |
| DamienCassou | reisio: I'm sure I'm talking about external projectors, but I *think* these are called beamer too :-) | 08:51 |
| reisio | what are you connecting them with? | 08:51 |
| TillMorelia | Do you have connexion to Canadian ? http://192.198.85.138/testing.html | 08:52 |
| DamienCassou | the beamer has a vga port which I plug on a VGA->mini DVI port on my mac book pro | 08:52 |
| DamienCassou | it's a mini displayport, not mini DVI | 08:54 |

| darnir | I tried compiling from source, but somehow my applications can't detect the so files which do exist in /usr/local/lib/ | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | ddssc: I believe Evolution can, you may need an intermediate service to read the server | 10:04 |
| geirha | darnir: You probably need to update the cache. You do that by running sudo ldconfig | 10:04 |
| darnir | geirha: Okay, let me try. | 10:05 |
| PMJP | hello people | 10:05 |
| geirha | when ldconfig -p lists the so-file, applications should find it too | 10:05 |

| Alvein | Hi all | 10:21 |
| Alvein | ubuntu 13.04 server.. freeze every 1-2 hours to 60-120 seconds... any idea why? | 10:22 |
| ikonia | define freeze | 10:22 |
| Alvein | how? | 10:22 |
| Alvein | :) | 10:22 |
| ikonia | don't then | 10:22 |
| [Gentoo] | overheating, low on ram, could be hundreds of things | 10:22 |
| Alvein | 20 of 64Gb are free | 10:23 |
| Alvein | mmm... | 10:23 |
| ikonia | you have 64GB of ram ? | 10:23 |
| [Gentoo] | does it freeze for a short while or do you need to reset | 10:23 |
| Alvein | understood | 10:23 |
| ikonia | you need to define freeze | 10:23 |
| ikonia | until that happens - it's a pointless discussion | 10:24 |
| PMJP | what is it doing just before the freeze? | 10:24 |
| Alvein | [Gentoo], i don't need reset.. itself begins to work | 10:24 |
| Alvein | PMJP, web-server | 10:24 |
| [Gentoo] | Alvein: is that 64GB of RAM or hard disk space | 10:25 |
| Alvein | RAM | 10:25 |
| [Gentoo] | well thats out the question | 10:25 |
| ikonia | this is stupid, define freeze | 10:25 |
| ikonia | you're just saying random things until you understand what is meant by freeze | 10:26 |
| [Gentoo] | leave a tail -F /var/log/messages open or similar, might not see anything | 10:26 |
| ikonia | good lord.... | 10:26 |
| [Gentoo] | ikonia: who me? | 10:26 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: do you have ANY structure to what you are saying, | 10:26 |
| [Gentoo] | are you always in such a mood | 10:26 |
| [Gentoo] | if its was alow ram | 10:27 |
| ikonia | I'm not in a mod, but throwing random things at a non-descript problem is not useful | 10:27 |
| [Gentoo] | could br swapping | 10:27 |
| [Gentoo] | as its not freezing as in panicking | 10:27 |
| ikonia | who said ram ? you don't even know what he means by "freeze" yet | 10:27 |
| [Gentoo] | he said it starts working after a while | 10:27 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: you don't know what he means by freeze yet | 10:27 |
| Alvein | ikonia, freeze = the system is fully available on the network | 10:27 |
| PMJP | haha | 10:28 |
| ikonia | Alvein: how can freeze = the system is fully available, that's "normal" | 10:28 |
| [Gentoo] | ikonia: on the network | 10:28 |
| Alvein | sorry, not available | 10:28 |
| [Gentoo] | you have to use some sort of common sense | 10:28 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: no, I don't as he's just corrected it | 10:28 |
| ikonia | Alvein: right, so it's not freezing, it's dropping off the network, correct ? | 10:28 |
| [Gentoo] | ikonia: you do have an attitude problem, in fact im waiting for a ban over this nonsense | 10:29 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: you are not structuring help to understanding and fixing the problem - you are just saying random things to a non-descript problem | 10:30 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: I suggest you try to get valid information before offering guidence | 10:30 |
| [Gentoo] | i asked him how much ram he had to rule out any kind of freezing from low ram | 10:30 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: it's NOT freezing | 10:30 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: hence why I said "valid information" and get a definition | 10:31 |
| [Gentoo] | he said "freezing" | 10:31 |
| [Gentoo] | so i assumed it was freezing | 10:31 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: yes, but he then corrected it | 10:31 |
| [Gentoo] | lol | 10:31 |
| [Gentoo] | ok | 10:31 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: hence why I said "define freeze" | 10:31 |
| ikonia | before offering random things | 10:31 |
| [Gentoo] | so i asked him if it was a temp freeze or if it needed a reset | 10:31 |
| Alvein | ikonia, You are partly right. A script that checks the system from the inside (counting each second the amount of free memory) - will not be interrupted, wrote to the file. | 10:31 |
| ikonia | Alvein: what part am I wrong about then ? | 10:32 |
| ikonia | Alvein: please explain where my understanding is wrong | 10:32 |
| ikonia | [Gentoo]: it's NOT a freeze, | 10:32 |
| Alvein | ikonia, but I'm not sure of the correctness of this test | 10:32 |
| ikonia | Alvein: ok, so symptoms are a.) drops off network b.) internal script continues to run, correct/false ? | 10:33 |
| MrQuist | jesus | 10:33 |
| MrQuist | >these moods | 10:33 |
| Alvein | ikonia, a) yep, b) internal _shell_ script continues run.. | 10:35 |
| Alvein | ikonia, tell me what other tests can be done to make sure that this is a problem in the network / ISP | 10:35 |
| ikonia | Alvein: ok, so it doesn't sound like it's freezing at all | 10:35 |
| BrixSat | hello | 10:35 |
| ikonia | Alvein: I would suggest two approaches, as I suspect the problem will be between your personal client (I'm assuming you are ssh'ing in) and your server, rather than your server / public internet | 10:36 |
| BrixSat | where do i get help about graphics card (cedar view)? | 10:36 |
| === fan is now known as Guest20710 | ||
| Alvein | ikonia, Technical support proves that they have no network problems | 10:36 |
| ikonia | Alvein: ok, so that sounds like a problem between you're personal client and the server | 10:36 |
| ikonia | Alvein: you can setup some tests to prove/disprove that | 10:36 |
| Alvein | ikonia, I ran the test .. 2 servers in a data center, one passes out, second to none | 10:37 |

| Alvein | * -c 1000 | 10:39 |

| ikonia | Alvein: where, as in what application do you see what looks like a freeze ? | 10:39 |
| ikonia | ssh by anychance..... | 10:40 |
| Alvein | ikonia, ssh, mysql, web-server logs (visited the project) | 10:41 |
| ikonia | Alvein: what do you mean mysql | 10:41 |
| ikonia | how do you "see" this in mysql | 10:41 |
| Alvein | replication between 2 servers... connection lost + logs from one web server to database other server | 10:42 |
| ikonia | Alvein: ah, so mysql replication is failing | 10:42 |
| Alvein | ikonia, example one: https://dl-web.dropbox.com/spa/4pwvca36405d6np/o-pr0h2b.png | 10:43 |

| snkt | can anyone help me... | 10:52 |
| MrQuist | throw your printer away | 10:53 |
| snkt | MrQuist, why???? | 10:53 |
| MrQuist | snkt: 1. what does this have to do with ubuntu? 2. How do you access a "printer" over "localhost"? Does the printer run ubuntu? | 10:53 |
| snkt | MrQuist, on ubuntu 11.10 | 10:54 |
| MrQuist | This sounds like you've plugged a mouse and keyboard and monitor in to a printer | 10:54 |
| MrQuist | is that correct? | 10:54 |
| ikonia | it's the cups web interface | 10:54 |
| MrQuist | localhost | 10:54 |
| geirha | snkt: 11.10 is no longer supported | 10:54 |
| ikonia | yes, on localhost | 10:54 |
| MrQuist | you have cups, on localhost | 10:54 |
| Alvein | ikonia, first server have web/mysql(read,write) - they freeze. Second server have web/mysql(read).. they write data to first server. from first mysql to second mysql replication data | 10:54 |
| ikonia | that is correct | 10:54 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: of course, you run cups on localhost | 10:54 |
| MrQuist | cups is not installed on the printer? | 10:54 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: no | 10:54 |
| MrQuist | its a stupid USB printer? | 10:54 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: what are you talking about | 10:55 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: cups is a a part of the linux printing stack on the desktop machine | 10:55 |
| MrQuist | The fact that i also know printers with an SSH interface on which you can log in and install cups on to | 10:55 |
| snkt | MrQuist, what are you talking about | 10:55 |
| MrQuist | so i just want to make that clear | 10:55 |
| MrQuist | this sounds more like a CUPS issue itself | 10:55 |
| snkt | can anyone help me here.... | 10:55 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: stop, you're just saying random things | 10:55 |
| MrQuist | ikonia, what the hell is wrong with you and your "You're saying random things!" | 10:56 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: you are though | 10:56 |
| MrQuist | I am most definately not | 10:56 |
| Alvein | ikonia, work correctly wo freeze until yesterday.. yesterday change Hard Drive and install ubuntu 13.04.. and problem start... | 10:56 |
| geirha | snkt: Upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 and see if it works there | 10:56 |
| ikonia | Alvein: what was it running before ? | 10:56 |
| nevyn | is pulseaudio on raring being crashy for anyone else? | 10:56 |

| Alvein | ikonia: 12.10.. | 10:57 |
| PMJP | pulseaudio works fine for me | 10:57 |
| ikonia | Alvein: ok - so based on everything you've said, it's quite hard to be %100 clear where the problem is | 10:58 |
| ikonia | Alvein: here are the things you need to look at | 10:58 |
| ikonia | Alvein: 1.) mysqld - connection limit, make sure you have enough connections available | 10:58 |
| ikonia | Alvein: 2.) setup a STATIC web page that does not need mysql, write a script to check that internally and log if it fails, and then check it externally over the internet, and check if it fails | 10:59 |
| khaos_ | hi i have lost thunderbird notification about new email in ubuntu 13.04 is there any way to get it back?? | 10:59 |

| ikonia | Alvein: do you understand what I've just said ? | 11:00 |

| ikonia | Alvein: sorry 1.) check the syslog to see if the interface goes up/down 2.) ask for the switch statistics for the switch port the server is plugged into, see if that port goes up/down | 11:03 |
| Alvein | ikonia, Thank you very much for your help. Unfortunately I have to go. I'll see all of your advice and if I discover solutions problems - will be back .. tomorrow :) | 11:05 |

| geirha | surt: abbriviated subnetmask; same as 10.1.1.0/255.255.255.0 | 11:11 |
| geirha | allows 10.1.1.1-254 access | 11:11 |
| surt | OK. changed/restarting. | 11:12 |
| surt | geirha: Why 24 by the way? Why not 255? | 11:13 |
| geirha | 24 is a shorthand for 255.255.255.0, meaning "first 24 bits" | 11:14 |
| lost_and_unfound | surt: /24 is shorthand for 255.255.255.0 | 11:14 |
| s0m3bOdY | 32-24=8, 2^8=256 | 11:15 |
| geirha | surt: On the host you want to mount it on, ''ip -o -4 addr show'' should show ''... inet 10.1.1.X/24 ...'' where X is a number between 1-254 inclusive | 11:15 |
| surt | Oh. Well it did the trick. Thanks folks, not sure where you learn this degree of networking but I envy you. | 11:15 |
| s0m3bOdY | it's hard. And sources are scarce nowadays .... | 11:16 |
| geirha | ##networking might know of some good resources | 11:16 |
| surt | Is it shorthand only in the realm of the program interpreting this file, or is this a generic networking term? | 11:17 |

| spacedust | hi i am using ubuntu 12.04 lts and i disabled wireless networks from the networking thingy next to the clock | 11:20 |
| spacedust | and now it is gray and i can't enable it back , it says its disabled due to wireless switch, but i press the button and nothing happens | 11:20 |
| hke | thingy -> indicator | 11:20 |
| surt | Thanks again folks. toodeloo. | 11:20 |
| geirha | Ah, yes. According to that wikipedia article, it is a standardized format now. Back in the day when I started learning about networking, the abbriviated form didn't exist. | 11:21 |
| spacedust | hke: that | 11:21 |
| spacedust | hke: i restarted the laptop since then and pressed the wifi buttoin and restarted and modprobed and everything | 11:22 |
| spacedust | and nothing happens , cant get back to wifi , and i have no cable | 11:22 |
| s0m3bOdY | check your FN key + WiFi button somewhere | 11:22 |
| s0m3bOdY | you most probably have switched it off | 11:22 |
| spacedust | s0m3bOdY: it is a single button and i pressed it but nothing happens | 11:22 |
| s0m3bOdY | do you have FN key? | 11:23 |
| spacedust | s0m3bOdY: oh and i didnt press it in the first place :) | 11:23 |
| spacedust | i disabled wifi from the indicator and it says that since then | 11:23 |
| spacedust | s0m3bOdY: i have fn key but don't need to press fn for wifi key, wifi key is stand alone button ! | 11:23 |
| s0m3bOdY | which model is your laptop? | 11:23 |

| varunendra | universal, a stream line editor, like awk. Most common use is "sed -i 's/<something>/<something else/' <input file>" | 12:35 |
| universal | it went up like a rocket lol | 12:35 |
| varunendra | universal, what? | 12:35 |
| universal | plz use simple english | 12:35 |
| varunendra | oh. lol | 12:36 |
| DamienCassou | this blog post is really old and probably outdated (I think that xorg.conf if more or less deprecated now). Moreover, plugging an external monitor works fine. Just plugging an external projector does not work | 12:36 |
| universal | !awk | 12:36 |
| ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 12:36 |
| varunendra | universal, if you are planning to learn and use commandline for most of your tasks, learning at least 'some' usage of sed is going to help you a lot... it is almost a necessity for permanent cmdline users | 12:37 |
| spacedust | varunendra: or awk ? | 12:38 |
| universal | yes I want to use cmdline...its fast and powerful | 12:38 |
| varunendra | spacedust, awk is not suitable for simple edits. | 12:38 |
| spacedust | varunendra: why not ? | 12:38 |
| varunendra | it is overkill IMHO for thins like 's/1/2/' | 12:38 |
| universal | spacedust: varunendra are you both having a debate or helping me out ? | 12:38 |
| varunendra | XD | 12:39 |
| spacedust | no, im having a migrane :) | 12:39 |
| varunendra | universal, awk is too powerful, almost a full programming language, I'm trying to find the sed guide page which I learnt the most from.. | 12:39 |
| universal | that will be god | 12:40 |
| universal | good* | 12:40 |
| geirha | varunendra: /topic ##sed | 12:40 |
| geirha | awk and sed are both programming languages, turing complete and all that | 12:41 |

| universal | ctrl+R in bash terminal shows something like (reverse-i-search)`': - what does it mean ? | 12:42 |
| MrQuist | searching the history | 12:42 |
| MrQuist | really usefull | 12:42 |
| MrQuist | try typing: echo testing123 | 12:42 |
| === abinash is now known as _ab | ||
| MrQuist | then ctrl+r -> 123 | 12:42 |
| MrQuist | it will show echo testing123 | 12:42 |
| geirha | universal: It means if you type some text it will search backwards through history for a line containing that text | 12:42 |
| MrQuist | right. | 12:42 |
| universal | ooo | 12:42 |
| MrQuist | handy when searching for older commands :) | 12:42 |
| universal | if I do history -c then also ? | 12:42 |
| varunendra | universal, it is probably the most handy shortcut in Bash. It just looks through your bash history file for used commands, as you type a keyword | 12:42 |
| universal | if I do history -c then also ? | 12:43 |
| Pici | There is also #bash | 12:43 |
| geirha | universal: If you run history -c, there won't be any history to search through ... | 12:43 |
| universal | yea | 12:43 |
| varunendra | universal, just try the shortcut, then start typing any keyword you used in a previously used command. You'll know the difference ;) | 12:43 |
| universal | hmm | 12:44 |
| varunendra | universal, okay, the tutorial was the first hit on google : http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html | 12:44 |
| varunendra | universal, for your Network Manager keyfile issue, this is how you can use the sed command - | 12:44 |
| geirha | varunendra: Incidentally, that one is also listed in ##sed's topic | 12:45 |
| === upd_ is now known as upd | ||
| varunendra | universal, "sudo sed -i '/autoconnect/ d' /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/<your connection's keyfile>" == this will delete the line that contains the word "autoconnect". | 12:46 |
| varunendra | geirha, the NM keyfile editing? That's too much a coincidence then :D | 12:47 |
| universal | terminal is really easy with only a few clicks required lol | 12:47 |
| MrQuist | @ universal -> try Terminator instead of terminal | 12:48 |
| universal | and ctrl+R not working correctly | 12:48 |
| varunendra | universal, problem? | 12:48 |
| universal | i used nmcli command a lot of times | 12:48 |
| ferrieres | hi evbdy | 12:48 |
| MrQuist | hi lzy ferrieres | 12:49 |
| varunendra | oh, it'll show up the last used one only then, universal | 12:49 |
| universal | so when I did echo testing123 as suggested by MrQuist, its only showing nmcli commands and not testing123 | 12:49 |
| universal | varunendra: ^ | 12:49 |
| MrQuist | when ctrl+r -> 123 ? | 12:49 |
| geirha | varunendra: No, the grymoire tutorial. sed -i is generally discouraged in ##sed | 12:49 |
| ferrieres | I'm experiencing pbs (70% of CPU spend on Xorg) with a 4 years old laptop under 12.04 | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: what GPU are you using? | 12:50 |
| ferrieres | GPU ? | 12:50 |
| universal | MrQuist: no...its nly taking 12 and not 123 and last command is echo testing123 but its showing nmcli one | 12:50 |

| universal | not an expected word MrQuist lol | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: no the GPU | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: GPU == Graphical processing unit | 12:51 |
| MonkeyDust | universal there's also #bash, maybe the people there can help better | 12:51 |
| MrQuist | haha sry universal im kinda busy | 12:51 |
| ferrieres | ok, ATI RADEon | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: also, hp dont make cpu | 12:51 |
| arrun | hi guys how to modify initrd.lz , please help | 12:51 |
| varunendra | geirha, yes, that depends on which file is target though. You can't afford to create a copy each time you change a file, if you do it frequently. And in some places (like /etc/modprobe.d/) not at all (cuz all files are read, regardless of extension). | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: which Radeon GPU? | 12:51 |
| ferrieres | ok, HP is Hall but Processoring... | 12:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: sudo lshw -C display will show you | 12:52 |
| ferrieres | ok, smthg like lspci greped ? | 12:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: see above | 12:52 |
| geirha | varunendra: And it's non-standard; only works with GNU sed. BSD sed has a similar option, but it's incompatible with the GNU one. | 12:52 |
| universal | MrQuist: no problem....I understand coz I also become busy when something unexpected happens lol | 12:52 |
| MrQuist | lol | 12:52 |
| universal | MonkeyDust: thnx | 12:53 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: what is the product name? | 12:53 |
| varunendra | geirha, definitely. Someone serious about learning sed should know this, and probably they would, while following one of the guides :) | 12:54 |

| K1CKA55 | Sadly it didn't fix the issue i was out to fix | 12:55 |
| universal | filter your assesments and passon the best suggestion varunendra geirha lol | 12:55 |
| geirha | cactuswizard: bitlbee; though I use neither fb or twitter, so I don't know how well it works. | 12:56 |
| arrun | hi guys how to modify initrd.lz , please help | 12:56 |
| universal | MrQuist: now its working......I got it why it was not working | 12:56 |
| MrQuist | what about it | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: modify in what way? | 12:56 |
| arrun | ActionParsnip: just to test it in iso | 12:56 |
| MrQuist | arrun -> vim initrd.lz -> press I -> type random stuff -> press esc -> press wq -> press enter | 12:56 |
| arrun | change the plymouth | 12:57 |
| MrQuist | done! modified. | 12:57 |
| ferrieres | seems that I only get "PCI(sys)" as an answer | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: there is a menu for setting the plymouth theme | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: you dont change that file manually | 12:57 |
| varunendra | universal, probably create a copy of the keyfiles with desired changes, and move them back'n forth as required - would be safest method ;) | 12:57 |
| arrun | ok | 12:57 |
| ferrieres | "PCI(sysfs)" exactly... | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: if you simply state what you want to do like that, you will get better help | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: wait, your pci bus is slow | 12:58 |
| cactuswizard | ActionParsnip: just installed pidgin, seems working way better than empathy | 12:58 |
| ActionParsnip | cactuswizard: been using it since I started using Linux waaaay back when it was gaim :) | 12:58 |
| arrun | ActionParsnip: i want to extract the file and modify the content and then again rebuild it | 12:58 |
| universal | MrQuist: it showed the last entry correctly but what I did was deleted it so when again I searched, it didnt showed it...that means I deleted the last entry not from the search but from the terminal history | 12:59 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: if you run: sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth; sudo update-initramfs -u | 12:59 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: you can choose the plymouth boot splash from the available options | 12:59 |
| MrQuist | oh | 12:59 |
| varunendra | universal, even better, create two copies of same keyfile, with different names (IDs), one with autoconnect, other without it. Then use "nmcli con up id <desired one>". Not the optimal solution of course.. | 12:59 |
| MrQuist | weird | 12:59 |
| MrQuist | hahah | 12:59 |
| MoL0ToV | i have a problem with xscreensaver, don't authenticate even with correct password | 12:59 |
| universal | MrQuist: yea lol | 13:00 |
| arrun | ActionParsnip: man and how to change for the live disk] | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: you will need to remaster the ISO | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: considering its a boot splash, is it really worth the effort? | 13:01 |
| arrun | ActionParsnip: yes I am doing it | 13:01 |
| ferrieres | with lspci greped with "Radeon", i got AMD/ATI RV710/M92 | 13:01 |
| universal | varunendra: that sounds good..but what do you mean by move back and forth ? | 13:01 |
| ferrieres | but still printing PCI (sysfs) | 13:01 |
| ferrieres | on lshw display | 13:01 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: give it time, you'll get there | 13:01 |
| universal | when doing "sudo iwconfig", it takes me to consle and freezes there....is it a bug ? | 13:02 |
| varunendra | universal, move to the system-connections directory the one you want to use, move the other one outside. Now you don't need to tell me the stupidity rating of this suggestion. | 13:02 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: or try (in a nother terminal): lspci | grep -i vga | 13:03 |
| ferrieres | is there another way to know the GPU ? | 13:03 |
| universal | varunendra: haha...no no not at all | 13:03 |
| ferrieres | ok | 13:03 |
| ferrieres | ok : i got it both ways | 13:03 |
| universal | varunendra: if anything....thnx, it was the best advice of the day :D | 13:04 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: ok, which GPU | 13:04 |
| universal | varunendra: now how to use that "nmcli con permissions" command ? | 13:05 |

| xtriz | Pici, ok :) | 13:08 |
| xtriz | arrun, what are you doing ? | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: you will need to remaster the entire ISO and then rebuild. If you use liveUSB with persistance you can change it like an installed OS | 13:09 |
| varunendra | universal, again, doesn't look like that is covered by nmcli (or I couldn't find if it is). What kind of permissions do you want to assign/change? | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | arrun: i fail to see how a boot splash is so urgent, its so inconsequential | 13:09 |
| ferrieres | so lsmod doesnt show any fglx or so... how can i get this ? | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: _READ_ the link I gave | 13:09 |
| universal | varunendra: I dont want to change anything...I was wondering coz those entries are not listed in dconf and not shown in gsettings also | 13:10 |
| ferrieres | ok, i have lynx but firefox is out of my possibilities... | 13:10 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: want me to pastebin the text for you? | 13:10 |
| universal | its like ghost entries shown legit in nmcli but not in dconf or gsettings | 13:10 |
| universal | varunendra: ^ | 13:11 |

| === companion is now known as Companion | ||
| varunendra | universal, usually it is suggested to enable the connection for everyone, which is the default option while creating a connection. But if I disable that option, the connection is available to me only (or who creates the connection). Accordingly, just a line is added in the keyfile which I think can be added or edited manually. | 13:12 |
| universal | hmm | 13:13 |
| ferrieres | ok, i read... | 13:13 |
| universal | varunendra: next - connecting via command "nmcli dev wifi connect SSID [password <pass>]" duplicates the connection meaning duplicating of "connection " to "connection 1" "connection 2" and so on the times its done by "dev wifi connect....." command ! why ? | 13:14 |
| === JackMc is now known as Auv5 | ||
| varunendra | universal, I don't have any authentic explanation to that. I can only guess, which is - since you are not using an existing profile (using 'con' object), maybe NM thinks you 'Want' to create a new one. | 13:16 |
| varunendra | universal, it somehow sometimes happens in the GUI as well. | 13:16 |
| universal | varunendra: well sounds fair enough....but if i use the same command without "password <pass>" and use it to connect an existing connection.....then it connects the connection but again creates a duplicate entry , assuming its used to create new connections, this time it takes the entry itself and pass is already saved so I suppose its not creating a new entry but using the existing one | 13:21 |
| universal | otherwise if there are no connections in NM and you use the same command without pass then it will ask for the password but again creating a duplicate entry | 13:23 |
| varunendra | universal, you lost me in the previous comment :P Which command? "nmcli dev ...." or "nmcli con..." ? | 13:25 |
| universal | varunendra: ^^ | 13:25 |

| varunendra | universal, I am not so sure about the "dev" object. I think it is like asking for a new connection. The "con" object seems to be intended to use existing connections. Then again, most of what I'm posting here is what I just learned or guessed.. lol ! | 13:31 |

| glambert | Hi, I must have botched the ubuntu server install on my new server because the sources.list file was empty apart from the entry for the disc | 13:51 |
| glambert | I've added a few entries in there but still can't find some simple things like phpmyadmin | 13:51 |
| glambert | is there a default list somewhere for 13.04 server? | 13:51 |
| cfhowlett | !ubuntu-server|glambert, | 13:52 |
| ubottu | glambert,: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server | 13:52 |
| universal | geirha: why are the "nmcli nm permissions" entries not shown in dconf gui or gsettings ? | 13:53 |
| Delapena | cfhowlett: that's extremely unhelpful | 13:53 |
| Delapena | glambert: boot from live CD | 13:53 |
| glambert | Delapena, it was a USB install | 13:53 |
| glambert | and will eventually be in a datacentre so can't really have the USB in all of the time | 13:53 |
| kevalin | hello guys | 13:54 |
| Delapena | glambert: use the USB to see what the sources.list should look like... | 13:54 |
| OerHeks | glambert, you could try http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ and use the first 6 entrys | 13:54 |
| Delapena | wasn't that your question? | 13:54 |
| cfhowlett | kevalin, greetings | 13:54 |
| glambert | OerHeks, tried that but didn't select the Restricted or Universe ones, so that might be it | 13:55 |
| glambert | Delapena, don't think you can live boot from a USB server install? | 13:55 |
| Neozonz | how can i make a host openvpn accessible to all my proxmox containers?> | 13:57 |
| glambert | OerHeks, that sorted it, thanks | 13:58 |

| iceroot | !dualboot | Hundurinn | 14:28 |

| cfhowlett | Hundurinn, install windows first. then ubuntu | 14:28 |
| iceroot | Hundurinn: the first link | 14:29 |
| Delapena | you can install ubuntu first then windows... and then fix grub from a live cd | 14:30 |
| Hundurinn | well, i got windows 7 up and running, i create the USB bootable with ubuntu 12.04 LTS, restart my computer, boot from the usb key, select install and i get the some ubuntu loading screen that just hangs forever | 14:30 |
| Delapena | Hundurinn sounds like you have a bad install | 14:31 |
| cfhowlett | Hundurinn, md5sum check your ISO and do a disk integrity check of the USB | 14:31 |
| akshay2000 | Hundurinn: you may hit escape and see where exactly it is stuck. | 14:32 |
| ferrieres | hi again ! i'm still having trouble with a 12.04 on a ATI RADEON, even with the fglrx module... any help ? | 14:33 |

| Hundurinn | i got a soundcard and a graphics card | 14:35 |
| cfhowlett | !details|ferrieres, | 14:35 |
| Hundurinn | nothing else | 14:35 |
| ferrieres | I got a 12.04 version on a HP ProBook 4710 with a RADEON ATI 4xxx version and something like 70% of CPU spend on Xorg... | 14:37 |
| universal | well md5sum and sha256sum iso and usb and if its ok them try removing sound card and see if it works | 14:37 |
| === soul is now known as Guest91485 | ||
| universal | some drivers and additional attachments conflict while loading on boot | 14:38 |
| ferrieres | so, for example, moving a window under gnome (gdm, nnot lightdm) takes several seconds | 14:39 |
| ferrieres | anybody for help ? | 14:40 |
| auronandace | ferrieres: gdm and lightdm are login managers, nothing to do with your window manager | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: did you install the driver from the PPA? | 14:41 |
| Hundurinn | the md5sum came back wrong, Not the same, i'll will try downloading it again to make sure the iso is good | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: have you tried the Unity2D session? | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: there is nothing to move in gdm or lightdm, they are the login managers | 14:41 |
| iceroot | is there a program which is able to receive and show SMS when i have entered a SIM-card into my notebook? the umts connection is working fine, i just need to be able to receive sms also on that card | 14:41 |

| ferrieres | Unity 2D ? why, is this runnning smthg different from gnome ? | 14:43 |
| ferrieres | except lightdm in place of gdm... | 14:43 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: no, its still gnome, just a different window manager and shell | 14:43 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: lightdm or gdm doesnt make any difference at all | 14:44 |
| ferrieres | ok... | 14:44 |
| auronandace | ferrieres: gnome-shell uses mutter, unity uses compiz, unity2d uses metacity (what was used in gnome2) | 14:44 |
| ferrieres | thx... | 14:44 |
| ferrieres | how to proceed without unloging ? | 14:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ferrieres: you will need to log off, select the 2D session in the login screen then log in | 14:45 |
| ferrieres | ok | 14:45 |
| ferrieres | it's running very slow... ok, i log in | 14:47 |

| ActionParsnip | hid: all over the place. It doesnt go to a single folder like you think it does in windows | 14:55 |
| hid | but i mean not in ~ | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip | hid: shared libs can be used by many apps so go into a shared folder, they are also only loaded to ram once | 14:55 |
| === memand is now known as Guest7519 | ||

| SunTsu | DamienCassou: check your BIOS if your laptop has two GPUs, modern laptops often do. One that's integrated into the chipset and one that's sort of externel. If you do try both | 15:33 |
| DamienCassou | I don't think I have anything related to a bios tool. I never saw any on macbooks | 15:34 |

| TsarObomba | Hey guys, I used to compile kernels by hand all the time. And right now I want to do just that, but the "ubuntu or debiAn way". so i end up with packages | 15:36 |
| TsarObomba | Dont ask "why on earth would you do that", i can fix breakages, im a big boy | 15:36 |
| Gnea | DamienCassou: no, I mean that the bios needs to 'see' the beamer as it is turning on to 'know' that it exists | 15:37 |
| bazhang | !checkinstall | TsarObomba | 15:37 |
| ubottu | TsarObomba: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 15:37 |
| TsarObomba | Anyways, -pf has released their 3.11 patchset, but they dont release ubuntu or debian binaries, and the guy who does has not updated | 15:37 |
| bazhang | !compile > TsarObomba | 15:37 |
| ubottu | TsarObomba, please see my private message | 15:37 |
| TsarObomba | im familiar with checkinstall | 15:37 |
| TsarObomba | and i know how to compile | 15:37 |
| TsarObomba | I compile anjdrpoid roms, 20x times a day | 15:37 |
| bazhang | TsarObomba, whats the question then | 15:38 |
| TsarObomba | But I? know ubuntu/debian has a special method for kernels | 15:38 |
| hfase | compiling Linus source works for me after make menuconfig and make deb | 15:38 |
| TsarObomba | What is that method | 15:38 |
| TsarObomba | Nevermind | 15:38 |
| TsarObomba | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel | 15:38 |
| hfase | make deb-pkg i mean | 15:38 |
| TsarObomba | As usual, gettting help here is pulling teeth | 15:38 |
| TsarObomba | hfase: good to know | 15:39 |
| TsarObomba | thanksz | 15:39 |
| TsarObomba | the first person who didnt treat my question as a noob :P | 15:39 |
| TsarObomba | seriously, thanks | 15:39 |
| MonkeyDust | TsarObomba there's also #ubuntu-kernel | 15:39 |
| hfase | stanfard c compiler stuff, if you read the readme for linux on GitHub | 15:39 |
| TsarObomba | Time to read that wiki page i posted | 15:39 |
| TsarObomba | MonkeyDust: good to know | 15:39 |
| TsarObomba | hfase: i wonder, will it build with clang yet? | 15:39 |
| TsarObomba | clang is compatible with mosty gcc stuff | 15:40 |
| hfase | when i compile it though there are a few things missing, like tty and graphics | 15:40 |
| TsarObomba | And Ive been experimenting with using it over gcc4.7 on android roms | 15:40 |
| TsarObomba | eww | 15:40 |
| TsarObomba | Well i have open graphics | 15:40 |
| TsarObomba | intel | 15:40 |

| TsarObomba | The other box is nvidia, but that can stick on liquorix | 15:40 |
| DamienCassou | Gnea: I was answering SunTsu. But ok, thank you for your tip, I will try. Need to leave now | 15:40 |
| MonkeyDust | TsarObomba and for develeopers, there's #ubuntu-app-devel, i guess you're not in the right channel | 15:40 |
| DamienCassou | Gnea SunTsu thank you both | 15:40 |

| TsarObomba | hmm, that wiki page is for bui8lding the ubuntu patched kernel | 15:41 |
| TsarObomba | which i dont want, not new enough | 15:41 |
| TsarObomba | ferrieres: ask the question again | 15:41 |
| echo747 | are there any settings I can change in ubuntu to help speed up an older pc? | 15:41 |

| TsarObomba | Hey guys, im building that kernel now. But I need help with udev rules. It woyuld be a simple rule, its just i cannot wrap my head around how to write it | 16:32 |
| TsarObomba | basically, something that does this | 16:32 |
| TsarObomba | chmod 666 /sys/class/leds/tpacpi\:\:thinklight/brightness | 16:32 |
| TsarObomba | otherwise i need to do that on each boot to access the thinklight without root | 16:33 |
| MonkeyDust | TsarObomba have you asked in #ubuntu-kernel, as I suggested earlier? | 16:33 |
| ActionParsnip | jcbjoe: you can download the ISO as you wish, as long as it is complete and consistent it doesnt matter | 16:33 |
| TsarObomba | and im tyring to make a script for kvirc where it blinks the light on nick highlights | 16:33 |
| TsarObomba | MonkeyDust: you really thing they are gonna deal with udev? | 16:33 |
| ActionParsnip | jcbjoe: once you have the ISO you can use unetbootin to put t on the USB stick and make it bootable | 16:33 |
| TsarObomba | udev isnt really kernel, but sure | 16:33 |
| ActionParsnip | TsarObomba: if you add the command in /etc/rc.local above the 'exit 0' line, it will run each boot as root | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip | TsarObomba: after the command runs the DM will load | 16:34 |
| Sarge | I d-l'd ISO from the 'net, saved to local HD, then ran CD burner on it to make bootable copy on CD but USB stick works too. | 16:34 |
| jcbjoe | yea it looks the same the one coming from unetbootin is 785mb and the torrent one im downading is 7985mb | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip | jcbjoe: if you have the ISO and it MD5 tests as Ok, use that | 16:35 |

| TsarObomba | ActionParsnip: one more, on my remote buildbox (very fast desktop, FX-8350 8 core, 32GB DDR3, 5.2TB raid, two SSDs (60GB and 256, with the 256GB dedicated to just my $HOME. | 16:42 |
| TsarObomba | Anyways, I had to recreate the user I use | 16:43 |
| ferrieres | Thx BluesKaj... | 16:43 |
| TsarObomba | Because of issues after moving my files to the different drive when I filled the 60GB doing ancdroid stuff | 16:43 |
| TsarObomba | But the local user used the KDE user thingy, and it didnt make thre normal .bashrc and whatever other .bash files a normal user would have | 16:44 |
| TsarObomba | Like using addusder script | 16:44 |
| ferrieres | there are plenty of package in apt-cache search radeon command... some of them i know (fglrx, xserver-...Ã) and some not ... which one should i install ??? | 16:44 |
| TsarObomba | Could someone tell me which .bash* files they have and maybe pastebin them | 16:44 |
| TsarObomba | So i dont have to remake the user, again | 16:44 |
| TsarObomba | I have .bash_history that it made on its own, but my .bashrc wasnt there, so I created it, but only two lines | 16:45 |
| ferrieres | So that was my question... | 16:46 |
| jcbjoe | I'm back / i booted my live usb drive with ubuntu 13.0.4 on it .. my trackpad isn't working .. if its not working in the install it won't work when i reboot to the os correct ?? | 16:46 |
| jamiejackson | hi folks. trying to move /usr to another partition. i attached the ubuntu drive and the new usr drive/partition in centos to perform the copy (maybe it would have been better to do this right in ubuntu, i don't know.). i tried copying with "rsync -aXSlv -A", but i'm getting errors like this: | 16:46 |
| jamiejackson | rsync: rsync_xal_clear: lremovexattr("src/linux-headers-3.5.0-40/virt/kvm/.Kconfig.Dlnq3T","security.selinux") failed: Permission denied ( | 16:46 |
| ferrieres | ok, bye... | 16:46 |
| jcbjoe | according to google i have to install it | 16:47 |
| jamiejackson | what's the best way to copy usr to another partition? (i've googled it, but the results are a little old, and i don't know if they address selinux properly) | 16:47 |
| jcbjoe | http://www.itworld.com/software/353998/install-synaptic-ubuntu-1304 | 16:47 |
| jamiejackson | (i can handle the fstab bits, but i'm not sure about the copy operation) | 16:48 |
| TsarObomba | dang, actionparsnip left | 16:48 |
| jcbjoe | hmm have it installed already | 16:48 |
| TsarObomba | Anyone else have a stock .bashrc? | 16:48 |
| SunTsu | jamiejackson: I's use rsync | 16:49 |
| TsarObomba | Im just looking for the stock .bash* files | 16:49 |

| jamiejackson | SunTsu: did you see my message about my rsync errors (a few posts above)? | 16:49 |
| SunTsu | jamiejackson: no, I didn't | 16:49 |
| SunTsu | jamiejackson: looks like SELinux is active, you might want to boot from a live image and do it from there | 16:51 |
| jamiejackson | SunTsu: i *think* i'm in a simlar context as a live image, as i've attached the drives to another linux. correct me if i'm wrong, please. | 16:51 |
| SunTsu | jamiejackson: yeah, but this linux might have SELinux enabled | 16:52 |
| jcbjoe | is 13.04 stable ? | 16:52 |

| jcbjoe | http://askubuntu.com/questions/305820/fresh-13-04-install-laptop-keyboard-touchpad-not-working | 16:53 |
| jcbjoe | this probably will fix it | 16:53 |
| jamiejackson | SunTsu: okay, i think i'll try disabling selinux temporarily on centos and try the copy again. if that fails, i'l go to a real live image. SunTsu, could you sanity check my rsync options, above? in particular, am i all set with symlinks, etc.? | 16:53 |

| darth_damian_000 | Hey guys, I am just wondering, if there is a way I can check if my hardware is compatible with ubuntu? I am having so many system crashes lately. | 17:40 |
| gordonjcp | darth_damian_000: is it some sort of PC? | 17:41 |
| darth_damian_000 | it is a custom-made computer | 17:42 |
| gordonjcp | custom in what sense? | 17:42 |
| darth_damian_000 | AMD CPU, Nvidia graphics card if any of this info is relevant | 17:42 |
| darth_damian_000 | As in, I ordered the parts myself and put it together | 17:42 |
| gordonjcp | that's not really very custom | 17:42 |

| gordonjcp | darth_damian_000: are you running the proprietary NVidia drivers, or nouveau? | 17:44 |
| mrrcp | d/quit | 17:45 |
| darth_damian_000 | gordonjcp, I do not know. I installed ubuntu 13.04 and I have not made any driver modification. To best answer your question, I would say the "default" drivers that come during installation | 17:45 |
| darth_damian_000 | it was a clean install, by the way | 17:45 |
| gordonjcp | okay, that's nouveau | 17:45 |

| bekks | theverant: just use parted instead of *fdisk | 18:14 |

| curfont | does it matter? | 18:18 |

| bekks | theverant: No. | 18:29 |
| theverant | hmm | 18:29 |
| theverant | so, even though the RAID is there and the partitions are okay the data is inaccessible? | 18:30 |
| bekks | theverant: No. :) | 18:30 |

| bekks | theverant: If you want to access the data, mount the partition seen, and use your data. | 18:30 |
| theverant | I just can't use it in an iSCSI setup because it doesn't have the LV/VG info? | 18:31 |
| Marble68 | Strit: So I can successfully do a iwlist wlan0 scan | 18:31 |
| Marble68 | Strit: does that mean my drivers are loaded and I've just misconfigured something? | 18:31 |
| bekks | theverant: The PV/VG/LV configuration is totally irrelevant to iSCSI. | 18:32 |
| Strit | Marble68: Not sure. Might just mean that the system recognizes a wifi device. | 18:32 |
| HouseLegend | Hello everyone, i'm having trouble with setting up 5.1. Basicly, i manage to get it working with "alsamixer" in terminal and setting ch from 2 on 6, after a reboot it goes back to 2... and after lock/logout as well. Any tips ? | 18:32 |
| theverant | hmm | 18:32 |
| theverant | okay - I'm missing something! :D | 18:32 |
| theverant | I was using this guide http://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=Ubuntu_12.04&p=iscsi | 18:33 |
| Marble68 | Strit: Ok. So it "sees" the wifi device and it can scan the available networks and list them - but that doesn't necessarily mean it has a driver loaded? | 18:33 |
| theverant | Where I need to set up Lun 0 Path=/dev/vg_target00/lv_target00,Type=blockio | 18:33 |
| bekks | theverant: Well, when going to share a LV using iSCSI, you need the LV to be existant... | 18:33 |
| reisio | HouseLegend: you should probably be utilizing pulseaudio | 18:33 |
| theverant | ah | 18:33 |
| theverant | hmm | 18:33 |
| theverant | okay | 18:33 |
| theverant | maybe I didn't use LV | 18:33 |

| arrun | how to make it work | 18:34 |
| Strit | Marble68: good question. I'd think it has it loadet, but you just haven't connected to anything yet. I mean, it shows the available wifi networks, right? | 18:35 |

| xtre_ | can samba be used to share from one linux machine to another ? | 18:35 |
| Marble68 | Strit: yes | 18:35 |
| adzy | question: i have auto login enabled on my main account. when i login to an rdp session (xrdp), it starts a new session. any idea how to get it to load up the existing one? | 18:35 |
| daftykins | xtre_: of course | 18:35 |
| xtre_ | i am setting up ubuntu server as my main machine | 18:35 |
| bekks | xtre_: For sharing between linux hosts, better use NFS. | 18:35 |
| Marble68 | I've removed the config from interfaces and I'm going to back out the wpa_suplicant configuration | 18:35 |
| xtre_ | daftykins, great :) | 18:35 |
| reisio | adzy: use VNC instead, tigervnc | 18:35 |
| arrun | reisio: how to do that ? | 18:35 |
| arrun | reisio: what should I do for it? | 18:36 |
| xtre_ | bekks, i have windows laptop so i need to use samba. | 18:36 |
| bekks | xtre_: No, you can still use NFS between the linux hosts. | 18:36 |
| reisio | arrun: I'd start by putting the output of lspci -n into the box at http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ and making sure all that it spits out is loaded | 18:36 |
| === tjbiddle_ is now known as tjbiddle | ||
| adzy | reisio, will i need to install anything on my windows machine to access it through vnc? i was hoping to stick to rdp if possible | 18:36 |
| reisio | adzy: yeah tigervnc's viewer | 18:37 |
| Strit | Marble68: Well, I'm stumped then. I'd say your drivers are installed, but it just can't connect. | 18:37 |
| reisio | adzy: sorry I'm not familiar with xrdp, but if it's possible to do simply, it'll be documented | 18:37 |
| xtre_ | bekks, can i use samba and nfs side by side ? is that a good idea ? | 18:37 |
| adzy | reisio, okay, thanks, i'll give it a go | 18:37 |
| === Guest64195 is now known as MohamedDZ | ||
| iliv | bekks xtre_ NFS may not be the best option. It really depends. I actually have NFS *AND* SAMBA installed and configured, but I've been increasingly relying on SAMBA lately on the home LAN. Both have their pros and cons. | 18:37 |
| reisio | adzy: maybe something like for i in $(dpkg -L xrdp); do egrep -Hi 'existing|current|display|server' "$i"; done | 18:38 |
| xtre_ | iliv, ok :) | 18:38 |
| compdoc | adzy, are you sure auto login is the reason? I use x11rdp, and I get the same session each time as long as I dont log off. But I dont have auto login set. | 18:38 |
| xtre_ | i have heared that NFS is more cumbersome to configure and maintain. NFS 4 specifically. | 18:38 |
| arrun | guys ubuntu's plymouth (graphical one) doesn't show in virtual box | 18:39 |
| iliv | xtre_ | 18:39 |
| iliv | oops | 18:39 |
| bekks | xtre_: You can still use NFSv3 | 18:39 |
| Marble68 | Strit: Thanks for the help anyway - at least I'm further than were I was | 18:39 |
| adzy | reisio, you completely lost me there. is that to search through the documents? | 18:39 |
| xtre_ | ok | 18:39 |
| Strit | Marble68. No problem. Not that much into Ubuntu yet myself. :) | 18:39 |
| adzy | compdoc, no idea. i'm assuming so, but i'm probably wrong. all i know is that if i connect a display directly to the ubuntu rig, i get one session, but when i login through xrdp i get a different one | 18:40 |
| arrun | guys ubuntu's plymouth (graphical one) doesn't show in virtual box , how to make it run in vbox? | 18:40 |
| reisio | adzy: yup | 18:40 |
| iliv | xtre_ not entirely true, either. NFSv4 is configured pretty easily once you know the concepts and understand how software works. It's certainly not any more harder to configure than SAMBA is. | 18:40 |
| Strit | arrun: Why do you need it? | 18:40 |
| compdoc | adzy, oh, thats normal. What you want is desktop sharing, which is the only whaty I know to see the same desktop as the console | 18:41 |
| arrun | Strit: to test | 18:41 |
| compdoc | *way | 18:41 |
| xtre_ | iliv, ok checking out documentation once again than.. | 18:42 |
| Strit | arrun: As I understand Plymouth is just the splash screen. It's not there for more than a second at my end either (without vbox) | 18:42 |
| adzy | compdoc, and I'm going to guess using vnc is the way to do that then? | 18:42 |
| iliv | xtre_ you will probably have to install and configure both to make up your mind | 18:42 |
| iliv | xtre_: btw they can coexist just fine | 18:42 |
| compdoc | adzy, Ubuntu come with Vino for that purpose, and you connect with a vnc client to session 5900 | 18:43 |
| iliv | xtre_: so, you could start with whatever seems more friendly/easier to do, and then when're you're all set up and comfortable discover and play with the other | 18:43 |
| xtre_ | iliv, that's really a great idea :D | 18:43 |
| Lartza | How do I set my locale? | 18:43 |

| iliv | xtre_: I recommend that you try out 'usershare' type of shares with SAMBA. They're extremely user-friendly, although proper instructions maybe a bit hard to find. Trust me on this one, though, you'll love them. Why? Normal users (UID>1000) can create and destroy new share without needing root access or restart of SAMBA service. With NFS you'll have to be able to re-export /etc/exports which usually translates to root level access (via sudo or directly root accou | 18:47 |

| thecodethinker | I made a .desktop shortcut for gvim and set Terminal to true. As far as my understanding goes, it acts like vim was run from a terminal emulator... is there anyway for me to make it act like it was launched from a login shell instead of a normal one? | 18:54 |
| xtre_ | iliv, generally where do you hang out ? | 18:54 |

| reisio | thecodethinker: okay... | 18:57 |
| thecodethinker | reisio: I need it to run in a login shell though. When I run the shortcut... it runs through a normal shell | 18:58 |
| reisio | thecodethinker: what's the difference? | 18:58 |
| wilee-nilee | arrun, vbox has its own drivers basically. | 18:58 |

| stephenh | reisio: yea, bunch of in house packages are built for hardy, we're stretched for time | 19:05 |
| stephenh | it's easier to rebuild hardy boxes than to rebuild all the packages at this time | 19:06 |

| stephenh | curious how recently it was removed as i'm sure a colleague was able to install hardy from a mirror recently | 19:07 |
| reisio | I only know where the install images are | 19:07 |
| reisio | mmm, well there are lots of mirrors | 19:07 |
| stephenh | not a train smash, been a super help ! at least i've got an iso - i can sort the rest :) | 19:07 |
| reisio | probably some are still going | 19:07 |
| reisio | as to how to find them :p | 19:07 |
| stephenh | well that's the trick.. tracking them down :P | 19:07 |
| iliv | agrester: so far it's not clear whether it is memory or not. I'd run at least 3 times, better five just to see some consistency. Also, faulty PSU can cause very weird behavior so don't rule it out as well. Borrow one from a friend and try it out for a day (if you cocnlude memory is OK). | 19:08 |

| iliv | agrester: usually, you don't need to wait until the test is over. if memory is faulty, it shows pretty fast (anything over 30 minutes is probably going to mean your memory is doing fine) | 19:10 |

| Monday | BluesKaj so basically i have to make a partition in ubuntu then install windows on that partition, then to get grub i need to use a liveCD or something? | 19:32 |
| bekks | theverant: you're welcome :) | 19:32 |
| kalib | is there a way to search for a package on apt-get but filter only to installed packages? | 19:32 |
| kalib | for example.. | 19:32 |
| imMute | double interesting: a recently added user has a space in his display name. removing the space = hunky dory. | 19:32 |
| theverant | that was a harrowing couple of days | 19:32 |
| kalib | apt-cache gimp (but show me only gimp packages installed? | 19:32 |
| BluesKaj | Monday, basically , yes | 19:32 |
| Monday | i hate grub, i always have problems with it | 19:33 |
| Inquisitive | here is the pastebin url: http://pastebin.com/f6GpJbMs | 19:35 |
| BluesKaj | Monday, once on the live cd , run sudo os-prober , then sudo grub-install /dev/sdX , X being the windows partition assigned letter , most likely sda | 19:35 |
| Inquisitive | did I do it right | 19:35 |
| BluesKaj | Inquisitive, ok , in the terminal , sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel , if it loads properly there will be no out put from that command , you'll probly need to reboot to make it stick | 19:37 |

| wilee-nilee | Monday, Many use the bootrepair app it has a auto generate of the bootinfo summary be sure to keep the generated url to post if you have troubles. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair One can doo all this from a cli on alive cd, or use supergrub to boot in and do the grub bootloader reload from the desktop. | 19:38 |
| morfeo_81 | Strit, Ihave just included | 19:38 |
| BluesKaj | Monday,, another alternative is grub-repair | 19:38 |

| BluesKaj | !terminal | 19:48 |
| BluesKaj | !console | 19:48 |
| ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 19:48 |
| BluesKaj | Inquisitive, you loaded the kernel driver for your soundcard , witht hat command | 19:48 |
| Inquisitive | Oh driver so my little bro was right 5 min no glitches so far so thank you | 19:49 |
| BluesKaj | sometimes after updates to the system , especially media , the drivers are disabled to let the updates/upgrades install properly, Inquisitive | 19:50 |
| BluesKaj | not after but during , rather | 19:51 |
| Inquisitive | so I have to tell them to turn back on... | 19:51 |
| BluesKaj | yes , sometimes :) | 19:51 |
| Inquisitive | well this time it was a bug hidden a torrent file | 19:51 |

| Inquisitive | there was a comment that was bitching about the same problem I was having they called him a noob because it took him over 24 hours to fix | 19:52 |
| BluesKaj | no , if you've been doing updates regularly with the update manager , which is the same as doing them in the terminal then the drivers cab become disabled | 19:53 |
| Inquisitive | so It is not going to upset people if I come here with easy to answer Ubuntu questions | 19:54 |
| Inquisitive | and my linux using friends recommend switching to Kali is it good or better than mu Ubuntu | 19:54 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Inquisitive: I doubt we'll yell at you, ask up! :) | 19:55 |
| BluesKaj | Inquisitive in a word , yes , even difficult question | 19:55 |
| Inquisitive | they said it is not that hard to back up or even carry over my data with a new OS install since they are both linux | 19:55 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Inquisitive: Just ask your question and we'll help. This isn't the mafia. | 19:56 |

| bones | can some one help me | 19:56 |
| blazemore | !ask | 19:57 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 19:57 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Inquisitive: Correct. Those are offtopic, we use #ubuntu-offtopic for them. | 19:57 |

| bones | how you make netflix work | 19:57 |
| bones | anyone | 19:57 |
| auronandace | !netflix | bones | 19:58 |
| ubottu | bones: If you use Netflix, there is an unofficial solution for using it in Ubuntu detailed in http://www.compholio.com/netflix-desktop/ - bug reports in https://bugs.launchpad.net/netflix-desktop | 19:58 |
| LarsN | Inquisitive: also, regarding Kali linux vs Ubuntu. they are both linux. they are both based on Debian. However they are designed to fill very very different roles. | 19:58 |
| blazemore | Inquisitive: Let's talk about Kali, Ubuntu etc in #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:58 |
| LarsN | Inquisitive: Kali is something I use as a tool while at work performing certain tasks. Ubuntu is what I use to do 99.95% of my day to day computing and work. | 19:58 |
| lorddune | hi, can someone please help me with a "missing final newline" error while trying to do updates? I have tried every method I found online but cannot seem to make the problem go away. | 19:58 |
| blazemore | lorddune: Can you please put the full exact error message, and the command you ran to produce it, on http://paste.ubuntu.com | 19:59 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: I assume this is while running [ sudo apt-get update ]? (Follow blazemore's instructions) | 19:59 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: Yes, and I have tried to install using synaptic, update manager, and the old school terminal methods. All fail. | 20:00 |

| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: I've tried every method other than deleting the corrupt files themself and reinstalling them. Am looking for someone to help me through that process. | 20:01 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: does the grub bootloader display the new 3.8 kernel in addition to the 3.2 kernel? | 20:01 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: it could be as simple as changing which kernel grub boots by default. | 20:02 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: We won't know what the issue is until you follow my instructions above. Run [ sudo apt-get update ], select what displays, then hit Ctrl+Shift+C and paste it into the text window at http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 20:03 |

| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: Any additional information directly above the "E:" line that would be helpful? | 20:04 |

| LarsN | micah_chatt: do you see the 3.8 kernel and bits in /boot ? | 20:06 |
| Inquisitive | the comments on TPB made it seem like it would be a simple fix | 20:07 |
| micah_chatt | LarsN: yes http://pastebin.com/wyKnFFaQ | 20:07 |
| BluesKaj | Inquisitive, alt+F2 , then , gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf , then copy and paste this line to the bottom of the file , options snd-hda-intel index=0 , and save the file . | 20:07 |
| Inquisitive | and I saved that page | 20:07 |

| === Maple__ is now known as fu | ||
| LarsN | micah_chatt: chances are you will need to change /etc/defaults/grub (specifically the GRUB_DEFAULT= ) line but I don't know how to quickly determine which one you want. | 20:08 |
| === fu is now known as Maple__ | ||
| Inquisitive | gksudo? | 20:08 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: I even tried to use the script I found at this bug report http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1319791 | 20:08 |
| BluesKaj | yup , it still works | 20:08 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: I "THINK" you are going to want to replace 0 with 1 or 2 in /etc/defaults/grub. | 20:08 |
| micah_chatt | LarsN: hmm no file at /etc/defaults/grub | 20:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: In the 3rd command, substitute compiz-plugins with the file you're actually trying to install. | 20:09 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: this is what I get for being on 13.04. it's not the same. :/ | 20:09 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: hmmm... | 20:09 |
| micah_chatt | ahh etc/default | 20:09 |
| micah_chatt | not defaults | 20:09 |
| LarsN | my bad. | 20:09 |
| BluesKaj | Inquisitive, gksudo is used when opening a gui with permissions | 20:09 |
| LarsN | chalk it up to LarsN is almost completely stupid. | 20:09 |
| Inquisitive | so enter the cmd not in terminal but with alt f2 | 20:10 |
| BluesKaj | yes Inquisitive that's called the run command | 20:10 |
| micah_chatt | Larsn: not at all, you've gotten me in at least the right direction | 20:10 |
| BluesKaj | you can also cll it with a right click on the desktop and dialog will give the option there | 20:11 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6089622/ | 20:11 |
| micah_chatt | Larsn: in my /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 20:11 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: I've no idea what file I am trying to replace. | 20:11 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: I'm not certain, but I believe with grub2 large parts of those files are dynamically generated. | 20:11 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: What are you trying to install? | 20:12 |
| LarsN | which is to say when you update, or replace a kernel, manual changes are likely to be overwritten. hence the /etc/default/grub config. | 20:12 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: but again I'm not entirely sure. | 20:12 |
| micah_chatt | LarsN: that makes sense, my grub is at 1.99 | 20:12 |
| kostkon | lorddune, apt-cache policy compiz-plugins-main | 20:13 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: iirc, that's considered grub2 | 20:13 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: i don't know, i ran the programs you told me to. | 20:13 |
| micah_chatt | Ah thanks | 20:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: Oh, right, we're trying to apt-get update. Wow. Swing and a miss, strike 1. | 20:13 |
| micah_chatt | LarsN: but in that dynamically configured file, I do see 3.8 and 3.2 below it | 20:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: Run [ sudo apt-get clean && cd /var/lib/apt && sudo mv lists lists.old && sudo mkdir -p lists/partial && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update ] | 20:14 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: yeah, I would delete the corrupted file myself but I cannot figure out how to do that | 20:14 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: I've run all those previuously actually | 20:15 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: what's the GRUB_DEFAULT= in /etc/default/grub? | 20:15 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: but running again for kicks & giggles | 20:15 |
| micah_chatt | LarsN: its 0 | 20:15 |
| LarsN | micah_chatt: hmmm. if the 3.8 kernel is first in the list it should be booting then. | 20:16 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: hmm it's still running.......a light at the end of the tunnel perhaps | 20:16 |
| LarsN | if it's second in the list, change the default to 1. | 20:16 |
| LarsN | and so on. | 20:16 |
| Aque0s | Hello, can I use $PATH in /etc/environment? | 20:16 |
| pedromartin | ·ola | 20:16 |
| micah_chatt | hmm, 3.8 is first | 20:16 |
| micah_chatt | but i'll try changin that to 1 and see what happens | 20:16 |
| Aque0s | I'd like to do something like this: $ echo 'PATH=$PATH:/home/meteor/.nvm/v0.8.24/bin' >> /etc/environment | 20:16 |
| tutak | if i need to install software for 11.10 and i have a choice between 10.04 and 12.04 which one should i choose? | 20:17 |
| tutak | would they work? | 20:17 |
| tutak | software meant for 10.04 or 12.04 | 20:17 |
| Luyin | tutak: use 12.04, it's up to date and longer supported. | 20:17 |
| SonikkuAmerica | tutak: You'll need 12.04 LTS now, unless you're running a server (and why you use 10.04 on a server these days anyway?) | 20:18 |
| tutak | Luyin, i have 11.10. i need to install some software which is only available for 11.04 and 12.04 versions would they work on my machine? | 20:18 |
| LarsN | SonikkuAmerica: I'm not defending running old software, but there are many examples of why someone might still be running older versions. | 20:19 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: to give you a bit of background, i've had real bad problems with I/O so had only been doing updates manually | 20:19 |
| LarsN | top of mind would be older versions of large, complex, packages that aren't easily updated without downtime for $Lots of customers. | 20:20 |
| tutak | I know i need to upgrade, but am kinda at the wrong place and wrong time for having to start the whole process and take care of any bugs i might encounter | 20:20 |
| SonikkuAmerica | LarsN: True enough (10.04 server is still supported) but security issues are the main concern. | 20:21 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: OK it finally finished, now what? | 20:21 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: No errors? | 20:21 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: If not, run [ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ], run Synaptic and upgrade, or run the Update Manager again. | 20:22 |
| tutak | let me rephrase, can software designed for 11.04 or 12.04 be used on 11.10? | 20:23 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 20:23 |
| ThePendulum | Who helped me with the school network wifi problem earlier? | 20:23 |
| Benkinooby | tutak: depends. some programs require specififc versions of other programs to work | 20:24 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: Do you know which ones? (Can you pastebin the [ sudo apt-get update ] output again?) | 20:24 |
| Benkinooby | tutak: but since the versions you mentioned are similar, your chances are good | 20:24 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ThePendulum: Can't say, but what's up? | 20:25 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6089682/ | 20:25 |
| tutak | Benkinooby, i need to install mysql server's benchwork and they are available in only these two flavours :( which one would be a better choice? 12.04 or 10.04? | 20:25 |
| tutak | workbench sorry :D | 20:25 |
| Fudus | whichever version you are on? | 20:26 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: What flavor and release is this again? | 20:26 |
| Benkinooby | tutak: hm - i have no real experience with that. but better go with the one for 11.04 | 20:26 |
| ThePendulum | SonikkuAmerica: Well, simply said, my laptop, when running Ubuntu, can't connect to the WAPs at our school. Windows? No issue. Home WAP? No issues. | 20:26 |
| ThePendulum | SonikkuAmerica: It keeps asking me for authentication | 20:27 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I've heard of this... What encryption does it use? | 20:27 |
| Benkinooby | tutak: well - i get several hits on google your questionn | 20:27 |
| tutak | ok.. thanks | 20:27 |
| ThePendulum | Someone send me a script while I was on the laptop in an SSH session | 20:27 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: 12.04 LTS, but I am ready to do a clean install soon. I've had I/O issues ever since I updated to 12.04 from 11 | 20:27 |
| Benkinooby | tutak: seems like others had the same question - read what they are writing. let me skim through it for a secx | 20:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: I would recommend a reinstall of 12.04 at this point; things can get messy. | 20:28 |
| Benkinooby | *sex | 20:28 |
| Benkinooby | *sec | 20:28 |
| Benkinooby | argh | 20:28 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: I am doing as instructed by the command output and running apt-get -f install, it's still running | 20:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: Unless you want to work to repair the current install. | 20:28 |
| ThePendulum | SonikkuAmerica: Ubuntu 12.04 btw | 20:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lorddune: Good. | 20:28 |
| ThePendulum | SonikkuAmerica: (Ubuntu 13.04 having the same issue) | 20:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ThePendulum: You never answered my question: What encryption (WEP, WPA/WPA2) is the network using? | 20:29 |
| Fudus | ThePendulum: sounds like licensing fun with encrypted drivers | 20:29 |
| Benkinooby | tutak: did you check if workbench is in your repos? | 20:29 |
| ThePendulum | SonikkuAmerica: Oh, I completely missed that question | 20:29 |
| Benkinooby | !mysql-workbench | 20:29 |
| tutak | yes | 20:29 |
| ThePendulum | SonikkuAmerica: I think WPA/WPA2, let me check if my laptop remembered it | 20:30 |
| tutak | lemme recheck | 20:30 |
| Fudus | some default firmware has encrypted wireless disabled because of patents/licensing blah, so you need to go to the hardware provider's site and compile it yourself with it enabled | 20:30 |
| ThePendulum | :/ | 20:30 |

| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: I saw many other instances of the same problem online, but never found a true solution to the problem. It seems maybe the cause was possibly a chipset conflict with the Linux kernal software | 20:40 |

| iirelu2 | ive tried searching around askubuntu and everything else for half an hour, nothing | 20:41 |

| micah_chatt | it would be less work | 20:43 |
| Ben64 | jamiejackson: should work | 20:43 |
| lorddune | SonikkuAmerica: yeah, it was fun as heck, but frustrating. HP uses some sort of proprietery software on their root to reinstall the OS after a hardrive failure. They want you to buy the HD from them for like 800 dollars | 20:43 |

| jamesd_ | any python developers around, i'm looking for a link to get snmp working with the modules that are being shipped with ubuntu | 20:44 |

| Fudus | (sudo) | 20:54 |
| Ben64 | !sudo | Basil1x | 20:54 |
| ubottu | Basil1x: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 20:54 |

| ThePendulum | Ben64: You don't see how, or you don't find it helpful? | 20:56 |
| LinuxGold | drop it then. | 20:56 |
| Basil1x | That's sudo, not su. | 20:57 |
| Ben64 | !root | Basil1x | 20:57 |
| ubottu | Basil1x: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 20:57 |
| Fudus | root user was disabled in ubuntu, you can get around it with sudo bash | 20:58 |
| Ben64 | do not do 'sudo bash' | 20:58 |
| Basil1x | So, no persistent root access. | 20:58 |
| Ben64 | sudo -i | 20:58 |
| Ben64 | if you really need it | 20:58 |
| ThePendulum | What does sudo su doe? | 20:58 |
| ThePendulum | do*? | 20:58 |
| Ben64 | ThePendulum: thats bad, don't do that either | 20:59 |
| Basil1x | Make temporary permanent access? | 20:59 |
| Ben64 | i've already given you the answer... 'sudo -i' if you need a root shell for whatever reason (although theres almost no circumstance where its necessary) | 20:59 |
| Fudus | last i remember unity/gnome dies if you log in as root if you enable the account | 20:59 |
| principe | hola | 21:00 |
| Fudus | no launcher appears on root log in. i mean | 21:00 |
| Basil1x | Got it. This is not like my Sabayon machine. Thanks. | 21:01 |

| Benkinooby | agrester: do you also have an other OS on that computer - do you observe the same trouble? | 21:32 |
| Benkinooby | agrester: also if you think ALL your ram is corrupted. how many different RAM sticks did you try? | 21:32 |
| agrester | Benkinooby, previously Vista a long time ago, that too had issues on that system and so did Windows XP, so I guess I can trace it all back to bad RAM | 21:33 |

| Benkinooby | agrester: did the other RAM sticks fail too? | 21:34 |

| agrester | Benkinooby, Fudu: I'll test this stick in memtest86+ afterwards again | 21:39 |
| Benkinooby | agrester: ok | 21:39 |

| Apachez | is microsoft attempting to break some sort of a record now? :P https://isc.sans.edu/forums/diary/Microsoft+September+2013+Black+Tuesday+Overview/16538 | 21:41 |
| wilee-nilee | multi_io, generally ppa's are not supported here, have you run sud apt-get dist-upgrade besides the update? | 21:41 |
| wilee-nilee | sudo* | 21:41 |
| multi_io | wilee-nilee: no, but that really shouldn't be necessary. My question is about apt really, not about that ppa. | 21:42 |
| rostam | Hi in what time frame 12.04 LTS updates are released? currently we are at update 3, when would update 4 will be released? I am asking this because I need kernel version 3.9 which supports Intel Haswell chipset. Thx | 21:43 |
| Carlos_Saftey | what's a good partition size to install ubuntu on for JUST coding and programs like wine and terminator eclipse and such? like 40 GB? how much does ubuntu on its' own take up and how much does it need to "function well"? | 21:43 |
| Carlos_Saftey | I store all my videos and music on an external | 21:43 |
| wilee-nilee | multi_io, look at the ppa and the name of the package. | 21:44 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: hm, i'd say core system something from 10-15 GB - lemme check what i have | 21:45 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Benkinooby: yeah like i only use ubuntu for daily computing, browsing, emails, vim and coding nothing large... | 21:46 |
| worrow | do you know when rhythmbox will add support for ipod touch 5th gen? | 21:47 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: well, my whole system uses 21 GB and my home directory is 13 GB | 21:47 |
| daftykins | Carlos_Saftey: a clean install would only be say <4GB so i think for your use, assuming there'd be a separate /home for data, a 15GB / would be plenty | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | ;) just my wallpaper directory is 8gb here. ;P | 21:48 |
| Benkinooby | Dr_Willis: oh, "wallpapers" you call it ;) | 21:48 |
| === meltingw1x is now known as meltingwax | ||
| Carlos_Saftey | lol cool, so i think i'll do 25GB to be safe, then. so ubuntu needs 4GB to install and probably some buffer for swap, like i'm wondering | 21:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Benkinooby: 'That' directory.. is on another encrypted hd.. | 21:48 |
| Carlos_Saftey | what the performance threshhold is | 21:48 |
| Benkinooby | Dr_Willis: my wallpaper folder is the one that came by default in /usr/share/backgrounds :S | 21:48 |
| Nothing_Much | Anybody know what happened to libpng15? | 21:49 |
| Carlos_Saftey | is there a certain diskspace low enough that'll affect ubuntu's performance? | 21:49 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: well, the main problem will be the filesystem | 21:49 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: go with 10 GB and you're good | 21:49 |
| phantomcircuit | sadly setting acpi_osi=Linux | 21:49 |
| phantomcircuit | did not work | 21:49 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Benkinooby: alright i think i will | 21:50 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: on my computer i have a minimal setup though | 21:50 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: also mainliny conding | 21:50 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: i use fluxbox, so i don't have "big" stuff liek KDE or so | 21:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: when it gets 100% full - things tend to break. ;) | 21:50 |
| Carlos_Saftey | 2nd question. so i'm looking at gPArted and i'm dual booting windows 7 and ubuntu. the windows 7 is ~300GB and the ubuntu ~200GB... | 21:51 |
| Nothing_Much | Anybody know what happened to libpng15? | 21:51 |
| Carlos_Saftey | how do i ... hmm... the end result i want is to have ubuntu 12.04 running on a 40GB partition per Dr_Willis's last remark | 21:51 |
| agrester | Benkinooby: I have a theory as to why this is happening, there's a strange TV-tuner card in the computer that I don't use and Ubuntu never uses, perhaps the Power Supply was overwhelmed and there were voltage issues to the RAM chips under stress | 21:51 |
| Ari-Yang | hmmm... if I install mesa from git here http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/ I don't have to uninstall ubuntu's current mesa, right? | 21:52 |
| Benkinooby | agrester: interesting point! remove the cards? | 21:52 |
| Benkinooby | *card | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: so yoyu want to resize the ubuntu partion down to 40gb? | 21:52 |
| Carlos_Saftey | right now it's ubuntu 13.04 on the 200GB.... so how do i... do i format the | 21:52 |
| agrester | Benkinooby: just did, that card was hot so it was drawing power and doing nothing | 21:52 |
| === TsarObomba is now known as GiGaHuR | ||
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: right exactly... so resize it... to 40 then format it to install 12.04 because 13.04 was a mistake for a newb like me.. | 21:52 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: you can resizie, without formating, if you want to keep the 13.04 ubuntu | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: you are doing 2 differnt ubuntu installs on that box? shrink one partion down. make a new ext4 of the size you want. start the installer and tell it to put / on that 40 | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: oh? ive had no issues with 13.04 or 13.10 for that matter. | 21:53 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: no i only need one ubuntu install. just 12.04 partitioned to 40Gb on my 500GB drive. | 21:54 |
| Benkinooby | agrester: hm, what slot was the tv card on? pci? | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: the installer can delete/repartion as you want. and remove the old install | 21:54 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: eh it's hard to explain, idk what i'm doing and i;ve heard dells are buggy, | 21:54 |
| agrester | Benkinooby: yes it was | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: or you do it beforhand. if you want to delete the esisting install. use gparted. | 21:54 |
| Benkinooby | Dr_Willis: is gparted the thing behind the installer partition-magic? | 21:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: its a seperate program you can install from the liv e cd to use. | 21:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: or you can do it from within the instgaller. | 21:55 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: ok so from the bootable usb i make for 12.04 be able to totally format my current 13.04 and give me true 12.04 via formatting? | 21:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: of course. ;) | 21:55 |
| Dr_Willis | it might even ask to replace it. | 21:56 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: eeeeexxxxcellent. *tents fingers* | 21:56 |
| Dr_Willis | but really i have to wonder what issues you had with 13.04 , 13.10 is due out next month also. ;) | 21:56 |
| hplc | having trouble with a compile, "configure: error: OpenSSL support explicitly requested but OpenSSL could not be found" but openssl is installed, whats wrong? | 21:57 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: i think i'll just wait for the next LTS, lot of issues with certain libs and programs... it comes down to 12.04 being more idiot proof | 21:57 |
| Dr_Willis | hplc: you did install the openssl dev packages? | 21:57 |
| tekk | is it possible to VNC to a live ubuntu whilst its installing? | 21:57 |
| hplc | gonna check again | 21:57 |
| lonewulf85 | Hello quick question slightly off topic, Is there an easyphp for Ubuntu | 21:57 |
| tekk | i'm away from home now | 21:57 |
| Ari-Yang | hmmm... if I install mesa from git here http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/ I don't have to uninstall ubuntu's current mesa, is that correct? I'm attempting to follow these instructions for UVD http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=jUPNWzK9 | 21:57 |
| tekk | have ssh access but nothing else | 21:57 |
| Dr_Willis | tekk: unity/gnome has that remotedesktop feature. but it is not for use over the internet i belive. | 21:58 |
| === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away | ||
| Dr_Willis | tekk: teamviewer perhaps. but that would take work done beforhand ;) | 21:58 |
| tekk | i can ssh forward from another machine on that lan | 21:58 |
| tekk | the installer was hanging (for the 3rd time) on "Fetching 26/26 Packages..." | 21:59 |
| tekk | so i just left it | 21:59 |
| Dr_Willis | tekk: of course you need to enable the remote desktop on the pc. befor you do any of this. | 21:59 |
| daftykins | tekk: heh the install will finish before you get it working surely ;) | 21:59 |
| === GiGaHuR is now known as TsarObomba | ||
| Benkinooby | tekk: are you using the "normal" install - try the alternate install CD | 21:59 |
| tekk | yes i am | 21:59 |
| tekk | good idea | 21:59 |
| Benkinooby | tekk: from my experience it is more "robust" - the normal install hung up on me somethimes too - alternate always solved that | 22:00 |
| cartusia | whats the command in the terminal to open the ubuntu software center | 22:00 |
| Benkinooby | tekk: or, last resort, minimal install | 22:00 |
| tekk | thanks, gonna try it.. unfortunately i won't be home for another week now... d'oh | 22:00 |
| cartusia | I am trying to open it with sudo since with the GUI it wotn do it | 22:01 |
| cartusia | that is why I am asking | 22:01 |
| Dr_Willis | cartusia: 'software-center' or 'software-center-gtk3' perhaps | 22:01 |
| Carlos_Saftey | cinnamon works with 12.04 right?! | 22:01 |
| Dr_Willis | and use gksudo , not sudo for gui apps | 22:01 |
| tekk | minimal might be nice actually | 22:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: you are worried about things breaking and being idiot proof.. and you want to mess with cinimon? :) | 22:02 |
| Benkinooby | tekk: yes, but you need a bit of a clue, otherwise you will start to load stuff on it to get things working | 22:02 |
| tekk | thats fine | 22:02 |
| tekk | i'm usually quite confident =) | 22:02 |

| Benkinooby | tekk: i got tired of always "stripping down" my ubuntu, so i go with minimal installs and "build up" - but i had some "AHA!" times :P | 22:03 |
| cartusia | Dr_Willis, is there any reason for gk ? | 22:03 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: well, i liked it so much i actually was able to get it working perfectly. for me lol | 22:03 |
| Dr_Willis | cartusia: no idea if the 2 differ. i just noticed both on my system | 22:03 |
| cartusia | let me read the man page for that actually :) | 22:03 |
| hplc | Dr_Willis, no, dev aint installed, not in repo and cant find it on sourceforge | 22:03 |
| lonewulf85 | Please anyone I need an ubuntu equivalent to easyphp | 22:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: id suggest trying xubuntu, or lubuntu if you want a more old skool type desktop | 22:03 |
| cartusia | how is it that I can be able to figure out what is the command to type so in the future I can be able to figure out that for myself | 22:03 |
| Dr_Willis | cartusia: i just typed in 'soft<tab>' and saw the names. ;) | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | cartusia: you can look at the launcher's .desktop files to see exactly what the icons run also. | 22:04 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: lubuntu supposedly works the fastest right? super minimal? how big is it on HDD? | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | but i just guessed | 22:04 |
| eden_ | What determines the responsiveness of moving-opening-closing windows? | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: no idea exactly. ive ran it from 8gb usb flash drives | 22:04 |
| Benkinooby | tekk: well, age isn't a warrant for knowledge/wisdom - i wish it was so ;) | 22:05 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: haha nice, googling it | 22:05 |

| tekk | i'm not old | 22:05 |
| Benkinooby | old timer | 22:05 |

| tekk | which makes me an old timer ;) | 22:05 |
| benjudah | can anyone tell me whare I can get a source tree package that commpiles on ubuntu 10.10 mavric | 22:05 |
| tekk | as i'm 25 now | 22:05 |
| tekk | hah | 22:05 |
| Benkinooby | Oo - since 11? | 22:06 |
| bprompt | cartusia: difference for some commands run from the terminal, is that they maintain a link to the session as the parent process, so if you close the terminal it may take the GUI app started there with it, sometimes IIRC even if you run the app in the background, using "gksudo" leaves no dependency on the terminal as the parent process | 22:06 |
| Benkinooby | i was happy when i got my games started on the compter at that age XD | 22:06 |
| Dr_Willis | benjudah: once the release goes EOL, the servers get moved to some archive/legacy servers. you can change the sources.list to point to that server and use apt to get source and so forth as you normally would. | 22:06 |
| Dr_Willis | !eol | benjudah | 22:06 |
| ubottu | benjudah: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 22:06 |
| Benkinooby | tekk: anyway, hope the alternate or minimal install will do the trick | 22:06 |
| tekk | cheers | 22:07 |
| hplc | oh....its libssl-dev :S | 22:07 |
| hplc | nvm | 22:07 |

| cartusia | :) | 22:08 |

| neopsyche | hi all. | 22:11 |
| wilee-nilee | benjudah, I would not expect much help from the channel is all. | 22:11 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: i had a better experience with ubuntu and installing lxde on it than using the pre-done lubunut - your experience may vary | 22:11 |
| neopsyche | I have a bit of a conundrum for all of you.. networking challenge.. want to connect Ubuntu machine .. through netgear router.. with internet shared to netgear.. and in turn to ubuntu machine (which has no wireless card only lan) | 22:12 |
| Carlos_Saftey | yeah i've actually tried that too, but didnt like it it wasnt very customizeable | 22:12 |
| neopsyche | But.. netgear needs to get internet from windows machine.. which is wirelessly connected to another AP which has the ADSL connection | 22:12 |
| Carlos_Saftey | or is every distro/flavour 100% customizeable and i just dont know? is this statement true? | 22:13 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: hm, lubuntu won't be much more customizeable | 22:13 |
| gordonjcp | neopsyche: you need to sort out your weirdass networking | 22:13 |
| Carlos_Saftey | like down to the pixel | 22:13 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: everything is 100% customisable | 22:13 |
| neopsyche | good observation gordonjcp | 22:13 |
| bprompt | benjudah: how about getting puppy linux? you can still find ubuntun 10.10 iso btw | 22:13 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: everything you ever encounter, not just Linux distros | 22:13 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: it depends how much effort you want to put in | 22:13 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: you can trun ubuntu to lubuntu to kubuntu and what to - without reinstalling | 22:13 |
| gordonjcp | lubuntu is horrible | 22:14 |
| gordonjcp | LXDE is buggy as all hell | 22:14 |
| Benkinooby | gordonjcp: i agree lubunut is bad - but lxde is ok | 22:14 |
| Carlos_Saftey | gordonjcp: right right like i edited the opacity of the alt tab switcher and icon size in cinnamon via the share/ui/ .js files | 22:14 |
| gordonjcp | Benkinooby: it's fine if you've got a lot of RAM, but I wouldn't use it on less than 4GB | 22:14 |
| gordonjcp | Benkinooby: and ideally 8GB | 22:14 |
| Benkinooby | gordonjcp: i run lxde on 1 GB ram | 22:15 |
| gordonjcp | Benkinooby: doesn't it crash all the time? | 22:15 |
| Benkinooby | if i don't use fluxbox | 22:15 |
| Benkinooby | nope | 22:15 |
| Carlos_Saftey | yeah isnt it supposed to be minimal? | 22:15 |
| gordonjcp | Benkinooby: it runs out of memory and crashes all the time on 2GB here | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | cant say ive really noticed any issues with lubuntu on my 1gb ram netbook. | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | cant recall ever seeing it crash | 22:15 |
| Carlos_Saftey | arrrgh now im confused | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: try it out and see if you like it. | 22:15 |
| wilee-nilee | Carlos_Saftey, don't believe opinions | 22:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Lubuntu is about as low end/minimal as it gets. | 22:16 |
| gordonjcp | Dr_Willis: perhaps it's something else, that's triggering the OOM killer | 22:16 |
| Dr_Willis | xubuntu is a step or 2 above. and is very well done. | 22:16 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: well, waht wilee-nilee said... is jsut an opinion too ;) | 22:16 |
| gordonjcp | Dr_Willis: possibly some weird bug in LXDE | 22:16 |
| Dr_Willis | or roll your own. ;) | 22:16 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: so lubuntu is the pre packaged cereal linux? aand lxde is the DE? | 22:16 |
| wilee-nilee | users here should know better than to spread fud opinions anyway | 22:16 |
| benjudah | then what really nee is a dvd source tree for my commputer tha I can used to commpile the os I dont allwas have access to the internet for setup AND i CAN NOT UNDERSTEND WHAY THERE IS THIS ASSUMPION THAT THE INTERNET IS ALLWAYS AVAILABLE IT IS VERY ASNOYING | 22:17 |
| gordonjcp | neopsyche: so yeah, why such a crazy netowrk setup? | 22:17 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: in the end, ubuntu, lubuntu, xubuntu, fluxbunt - they all share the same system under the hood. then onyl difference is the GUI they present you. and that GUI is 100% interchangeable | 22:17 |
| Carlos_Saftey | i've heard KDE is 100% customisable. I only tweak a few things. mostly app switcher and icon sizes nothing fancy | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: ubuntu+lxde = Lubuntu | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: ubuntu wuth the lxde desktop. | 22:18 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: I can't be bothered with KDE | 22:18 |
| Carlos_Saftey | anyone here ever use Arch linux? | 22:18 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: yes | 22:18 |
| gordonjcp | I gave up on it, and switched to Ubuntu | 22:18 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: KDE is a big user interface - its not minimal | 22:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: best thing about arch linux - is its wiki pages. ;) | 22:18 |
| gordonjcp | Dr_Willis: yes. | 22:18 |
| Carlos_Saftey | how's that? lol | 22:18 |
| Carlos_Saftey | ah i see | 22:18 |
| Benkinooby | arch indeed has awesome wiki | 22:19 |
| Carlos_Saftey | hmmm i may just 50GB partition for Arch... | 22:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: its trivial to have lubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu, gnome-shell and kde all installed on the same pc and you just switch desktops at the login screen. | 22:19 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: arch is *great* if you like trying to figure out why other people's packages don't work properly, and if you love pretending that watching compiler output scroll past means you're "learning about Linux" | 22:19 |
| Carlos_Saftey | i am afraid ... | 22:19 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: I wouldn't recommend it for beginners, and I wouldn't recommend it for experienced users | 22:19 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: it's good fun though | 22:19 |
| agrester | Benkinooby: last thing I'm doing, considering I'm receiving 4GB tomorrow is to run the 2 x 1 GB sticks overnight using memtest86+ and see if I can use them, I didn't see any errors in the mprime tests anymore | 22:19 |
| Benkinooby | agrester: maybe it is realted to the tv card? run the test - it won't hurt either way | 22:20 |
| Benkinooby | *related | 22:20 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: we all are... :D | 22:20 |
| bprompt | benjudah: well, you're online right now :), downloading the .iso for 10.10 which is 700mbs maybe depending on your connection a matter or minutes or a couple of hours | 22:21 |
| agrester | Benkinooby: I'm starting to think it is because I recall switching out a lower-powered card for a more powerful one that was in another machine and perhaps this caused low voltage and it was mucking up the RAM for some reason, because I put it through it's paces | 22:21 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: the important thing you have to know is that the GUI (grapical user interface) is just an other programm running on your computer. you can install it use it and remove it, as you like. it is not an essential part of the operating system | 22:22 |
| bprompt | benjudah: you only have to dl it once you know, you may also have an option for snail-mail delivery, I know some sites used to provide that too | 22:22 |
| Dr_Willis | benjudah: why ecactly do you need 10.10 ? | 22:22 |
| Carlos_Saftey | thanks for all the input guys, probably just gonna install 12.04 and use cinnamon an lxde. i see Benkinooby .. thanks | 22:22 |
| Benkinooby | agrester: well, if the TV card is the culprit you saved yourself some RAM ;) | 22:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: i honestly suggest dumping cinnamon and sticking to one of the other desktops | 22:23 |
| Benkinooby | !cinnamon | 22:23 |
| benjudah | IHAVE TRIED OTHER OS AND NONE DO AWAYS WORK COMPLETELY | 22:23 |
| gordonjcp | Carlos_Saftey: oh yeah, don't use Cinnamon, it's crap | 22:24 |
| gordonjcp | !caps | benjudah | 22:24 |

| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: o.o oh? i just hate hate hate unity is all... i have a 4GB ram dell inspiron laptop and i commute to college. i'm a CS major and am learning C, what would you reccomend? | 22:24 |
| benjudah | soory | 22:24 |
| bprompt | benjudah: tried other os'es, like ? and they didn't work? how old is your hardware? | 22:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: a CS major should be able to use any desktop or none at all. | 22:25 |
| benjudah | 2004 | 22:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: in the end the desktpop really dosent matter a lot. | 22:25 |
| Benkinooby | true | 22:25 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: i just caan't have unity's fatass launcher in my window all the time lol | 22:25 |
| Dr_Willis | learning C - then use JWM and play with its code. ;) them move up | 22:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: the left side panel can auto hide. | 22:26 |
| benjudah | amd64 commpaq | 22:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Carlos_Saftey: and you can shrink its sizes down. | 22:26 |

| bprompt | benjudah: ... 2004, so is a single-core likely around 1.3ghz cpu I gather and .... 1gb ddr2 ram, well, I have run 11.04 on that, and surely could have run 12.04 on that too | 22:27 |
| Dr_Willis | bbl - work time for me | 22:27 |
| gordonjcp | bprompt: 12.04 will run just fine on that | 22:27 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Dr_Willis: ehh, only to like 24ish or something.. and argh sounds intimidating, maybe this summer, how? | 22:27 |
| AcidRain2012 | what type of programs do we have in linux to create flash applications? | 22:27 |
| benjudah | I tried 12 and it did not connect to the internet | 22:27 |
| home | hi. everytime i boot my computer i get a notice saying "low disk space on boot" how would i fix this? | 22:28 |
| AcidRain2012 | home, find out what is using all of your disk space ;p | 22:28 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: what is important for you on your desktop? you want it to look nce and fancy with much functions, or fast? | 22:28 |
| AcidRain2012 | and delete it | 22:28 |
| bprompt | benjudah: as far as space, 40gbs is more than plenty to run the OS, ubuntu only takes about 3.5gbs once installed | 22:28 |
| daftykins | home: delete older kernels you no longer use | 22:28 |
| AcidRain2012 | home, what version of ubuntu are you using? | 22:28 |
| bprompt | gordonjcp: yeap, it surely would | 22:28 |
| home | AcidRain2012, i am using 13.04 | 22:28 |
| AcidRain2012 | home, i know i had a big issue with the gnome log file being bombarded with errors. took up almost 70GiG | 22:29 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Benkinooby: i like GNOME put it that way lol... nothing flashy only functionality. | 22:29 |
| benjudah | yeah but I like too runn my set up from the hard drive with other os windows and it is reall a tight tfit | 22:29 |
| AcidRain2012 | home, but you can create a quick one line search in terminal to list off files that are bigger than... lets say 3Gig | 22:29 |
| Carlos_Saftey | Benkinooby: cinnamon seemed like a good inbetween on GNOMEness and new stuff | 22:29 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: well, ther is GNOME 3. LXDE is the closest thing to gnome 2 (the "old" gnome) that you can get without mayor pain on ubunut | 22:30 |
| wilee-nilee | Carlos_Saftey, To minty for me. ;) | 22:30 |
| Carlos_Saftey | wilee-nilee: what do you use? o.o | 22:30 |
| bprompt | benjudah: windowsXP install is only about 3.5gbs including swap file or virtual memory file, windows7 install is about 10gbs with the virtual memory file | 22:30 |
| wilee-nilee | Carlos_Saftey, gnome shell | 22:30 |
| home | AcidRain2012, can i make the boot folder bigger? | 22:31 |
| Carlos_Saftey | wilee-nilee: like the default gnome, ubuntu comes with? | 22:31 |
| AcidRain2012 | im wanting to create a flash application to play music. ive looked everywhere online for some (so i didnt have to do it myself), but none are what i need (or look like what i want them to). | 22:31 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: no - gnome shell is not unity | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | benjudah: can you stick more RAM in your machine? | 22:31 |
| AcidRain2012 | home, there are ways to make the partition containing the home folder bigger. | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | benjudah: 2GB would make a huge difference | 22:31 |
| wilee-nilee | Carlos_Saftey, no its the gnome 3 desktop, I use cairo-dock, I never access the app portion really | 22:31 |
| Benkinooby | Carlos_Saftey: some ideas are similar - but i'd say it's superior to unity. but that's personal tast. look youtube videos to get an impression | 22:32 |
| benjudah | but the boot concepts ar diff and on the ommputer I can not dual vey hhard I am nopt sure why | 22:32 |

| Antisober552 | hi i want to partition my hard drive but lost my thumb drive can i do it within the os | 22:33 |
| AcidRain2012 | 2gig of ram is more than enough to run linux ;) | 22:33 |
| AcidRain2012 | LKDE | 22:33 |
| Antisober552 | and allow it to partition while the pc is booting | 22:33 |
| OerHeks | Antisober552, no | 22:34 |
| Antisober552 | okai | 22:34 |
| bprompt | benjudah: well, on an amd64 compaq, likely a dual-core machine, it ain't the space for one that's bogging it down | 22:34 |
| rostam | HI when Ubuntu 13.10 will be release? | 22:34 |
| wilee-nilee | Antisober552, You can only partition unmounted partitions. | 22:34 |
| OerHeks | rostam, in month 10 | 22:34 |
| Antisober552 | okai | 22:34 |
| benjudah | I think it is bios matter | 22:34 |
| bprompt | benjudah: 40gbs is plenty, give 10gbs to linux and 20gbs or more to windows, and that'll do... 10gbs will do just fine for 12.04 or even 13, though I run 12.04 | 22:35 |
| rostam | OerHeks, Is there a beta version I can download? | 22:35 |
| benjudah | then I have to figure out why it is not connecting to the net | 22:35 |
| OerHeks | rostam, yes, see http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and join #ubuntu+1 for support | 22:36 |
| Benkinooby | benjudah: i run on 1 GB of ram all the time | 22:36 |
| Benkinooby | benjudah: not connecting to the internet is not a matter of ram | 22:37 |
| rostam | OerHeks, thanks | 22:37 |
| benjudah | yewy no kidding realy | 22:37 |
| benjudah | I dont understand the fuss 10.1o works fine cant I just get the source tree and migrate | 22:38 |
| home | how do i get rid up my unused kernels? | 22:38 |
| home | --preferably safely and graphically (not from the command line) | 22:39 |
| bekks | home: uninstall them. | 22:39 |
| wilee-nilee | home, take a look in askubuntu for info good help there. | 22:39 |
| green_geeky_dude | home - install ubuntu-tweak great app that has a janitor prog that will remove all that for you | 22:40 |
| home | green_geeky_dude, cool thanks | 22:40 |
| Benkinooby | !ubuntu-tweak | 22:40 |
| green_geeky_dude | home - yw :) | 22:40 |

| tgm4883 | neopsyche, you are in the wrong channel | 23:16 |
| tgm4883 | This isn't windows support | 23:16 |
| neopsyche | tgm... network issue ;-) | 23:16 |
| neopsyche | tgm.. involving two linux machines too ;-) | 23:17 |
| neopsyche | tgm.. and two routers ;-) | 23:17 |
| neopsyche | so, statistically.. not a windows issue | 23:17 |
| tgm4883 | neopsyche, yea, but your issue sounds like your router doesn't have internet, which you are trying to share from your windows machine | 23:17 |
| bekks | neopsyche: And involving a setup for bridging on windows. Windows issue. | 23:17 |
| gordonjcp | neopsyche: why is your network layout so ass-backwards anyway? | 23:17 |
| tgm4883 | neopsyche, and since you don't know how to set this up, please don't try to tell me that "statistically" this is a linux issue | 23:18 |

| ubottu | To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin.
