| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 00:27 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: or this ^ | 00:29 |
| crocket | OerHeks, Benkinooby : I installed gnome-shell and gnome-shell-extensions on linuxmint 15, and gnome shell wasn't really integrated into the system. | 00:30 |

| crocket | Lots of system settings in GNOME shell appeared weird. | 00:30 |
| OerHeks | crocket, that would be a mint issue, not our problem. | 00:30 |
| crocket | For example,I couldn't choose a custom background. | 00:30 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: use a distro that is gnome based | 00:30 |
| Benkinooby | if gnome is that important to you | 00:30 |
| crocket | Benkinooby, I'm afraid the same could happen with ubuntu if I installed gnome shell. | 00:31 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: well... just one way to find out | 00:31 |
| wilee-nilee | natural, This channel is not really the place for that, run it and decide for yourself, any answers here are opinions. | 00:31 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: my recommendation, if you are not a linux novice: use ubuntu minimal install, and add things you want | 00:31 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: by doning so you will have gnome3 and ubuntu under the hood | 00:32 |
| natural | thanks wilee-nilee this is the ubuntu suport channel right? i just want to find the minimum specs, i cant find them yet | 00:32 |
| wilee-nilee | natural, Make a usb or burn a disc and see if it runs, I would be surprised if it did not. | 00:32 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: but if you are not used to linux don't use minimal install | 00:32 |
| crocket | Benkinooby, Hmm..... it's hard to get DEs right by hand. | 00:32 |
| crocket | There is http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/13.04/release/ | 00:33 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: yep - is always a question how much you want it ;) | 00:33 |

| Benkinooby | crocket: yes | 00:35 |
| reisio | crocket: yes they have | 00:35 |
| reisio | even problematic upgrades can be rectified, however | 00:35 |
| reisio | without reinstalling | 00:35 |
| crocket | I nowadays prefer to back up, install a new OS, and restore. | 00:35 |
| Benkinooby | crocket: if you move from 13.04 to 13.10 it should be way less truoblesome than e.g. 12.10->13.10 | 00:36 |

| Dr_Willis | I think i saw guides somewhere on setting up dropbox or some other way to synhc tomboy notes | 01:06 |

| Dr_Willis | you could also just save your notes or whatever onto your dropbox directory that way all the pcs using dropbox couldget to them . same for ubuntu one. | 01:09 |

| NedsFlam | Hey all. I am working on converting the sum-of-products into NAND gates. f(x1, x2, x3) = SUM(m)(1,2,7). I have simplified the output to: notx1*x3+x2x3. However, I think the AND gate output should be x1*x2. Is there a way I can simplify my expression at its current stage. Or do I need to start over? | 01:32 |
| NedsFlam | shit wrong channel guys | 01:32 |
| NedsFlam | sorry | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | and.. what channel do you think you are asking this in? ;) | 01:33 |
| NedsFlam | hahaha | 01:33 |
| NedsFlam | I thought I was in math | 01:33 |

| bwayne | goodness. don't look at the sshd entries in auth.log unless you want to have a heart attack. | 01:34 |
| Dr_Willis | bwayne: logwatch can clean them up a bit. ;) | 01:34 |
| Dr_Willis | and fail2ban is handy to weed out snoopers | 01:34 |
| NMachado | w | 01:35 |
| bwayne | Dr_Willis: just installed fail2ban. not familiar with logwatch. thinking of installing denyhost and finding a way to deny anything not in my state | 01:36 |
| Dr_Willis | !info logwatch | 01:36 |
| ubottu | logwatch (source: logwatch): log analyser with nice output written in Perl. In component main, is optional. Version 7.4.0+svn20120502rev103-1ubuntu1 (raring), package size 439 kB, installed size 2019 kB | 01:36 |
| Dr_Willis | logwatch just vives you a nice log output. | 01:36 |
| bwayne | hmmm ... so it pretties up auth.log et al ? | 01:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Im not sure if you can combine fail2ban and denyhost - or if you just shouldent. ;) | 01:37 |
| Dr_Willis | allthe logs it can put in a nice report | 01:37 |
| Dr_Willis | apt, sshd. logins, sudo stuff. | 01:37 |
| bwayne | Dr_Willis: from what I read, they play nice together. | 01:37 |
| bwayne | Dr_Willis: sweet. installed logwatch. | 01:38 |
| Dr_Willis | i recall somthing about setting up Port-Knocking if you wanted to get extreme :) | 01:38 |
| bwayne | just enough to keep them off my Ubuntu. | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | using ssh keys instead of passwords is handy also. but i always stumble upon some app that cand handle keys | 01:39 |
| bwayne | Yeah. I'm the only AllowedUser and only key based auth. | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | so you are just seeing people banging on a door that dosent have a knob. ;) | 01:40 |
| Dr_Willis | so you could set up fail2ban to ban them after 1 bad attempt and do it for a very long time | 01:40 |
| bwayne | What I'd like to do is write a script that detects the repeated login attempts, and then launches a low orbit ion cannon at the attacking IP. but IP's get spoofed. | 01:41 |
| Dr_Willis | i recall seeing lots of attempts on my DigitalOcean VPS also. | 01:42 |
| M3tabaron | Dr_Willis: thanks for the links. I checked out a few apps, and Zim came out as the winner :) Im running pantheon on 13.04, and even though It is great eyecandy, the Elementary apps are far from ready. | 01:57 |
| Dr_Willis | looked at the Elemtary OS stuff.. and really. I wasent too impressed. The whole 'lets make eery thing minimal' trend seems more about marketing/fad then useability ;( | 01:58 |
| === LoganG|off is now known as LoganG | ||
| M3tabaron | Dr_Willis: hmm..to some extend. Unity is like a pepperspray in the face, but you are right, when the guys at elementary implements the new app control, the risk of ending up being just as lame as the apple hipsters. But, since I just had to ask around to find a satisfying note taking app, and I havent even solved the problem finding a good calendar, I think Its reasonable to say that there is a need for simplicity to some degree. Many apps in | 02:05 |
| M3tabaron | the software center are .. well.. crap, and that scares away many first time users. Personally I think the next gnome will be awesome for the geeks. I dont see where Unity fits in. Unity is trying to Mac, and even at that It fails. | 02:05 |
| Dr_Willis | i dont find unity tryont to be like Mac.. Its more like trying to be android-ish in wahs | 02:06 |
| Dr_Willis | ways | 02:06 |
| bazhang | M3tabaron, so file a wishlist bug, or choose something else | 02:06 |
| OerHeks | M3tabaron, install synaptic, for better package view/control | 02:06 |
| bazhang | !nounity | M3tabaron | 02:06 |
| ubottu | M3tabaron: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 02:06 |
| Dr_Willis | its still hard to beat synaptic. | 02:06 |
| OerHeks | no commercial ware too, softwarecentre is not capable of filtering that stuff | 02:07 |
| * LinuxGold sips some more | 02:08 | |
| Psil0Cybin | hey guys can someone help me by any chance | 02:09 |
| Psil0Cybin | is there any easy way to set up nfs so i can share a folder | 02:09 |
| M3tabaron | OerHeks: I will try that solution. thanks :) | 02:09 |
| Psil0Cybin | to my media center? | 02:09 |
| Dr_Willis | yea - i rarely use software center - but when i do - i definatly dont want to see some $2 trivial-apps all over the place | 02:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: what sort of media center? Most can do samba shares. NFS may be a bit harder | 02:10 |
| Dr_Willis | DLNA servers sharfeing media is also commonplace | 02:10 |
| crocket | sharfeing? | 02:11 |
| Psil0Cybin | it does allow samba share | 02:11 |
| Psil0Cybin | im using | 02:11 |
| Psil0Cybin | Raspbmc | 02:11 |
| Psil0Cybin | Xbmc | 02:11 |
| Psil0Cybin | but for the Raspberry Pi | 02:11 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:11 |
| Psil0Cybin | I have never used Samba sharing, do i need to download something? | 02:11 |
| crocket | Does DLNA transcode media? | 02:11 |
| Dr_Willis | xbmc can handle UPNP/DLNA - thats one of the easyest ways to set up a remote source for it | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | the Dlna SERVER can transcode - depending on the server | 02:12 |
| crocket | Dr_Willis, I heard DLNA can stream videos. | 02:12 |
| crocket | I want untempered binary stream. | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | crocket: thats its main job. ;) | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | what sort of binary stream> | 02:12 |
| crocket | Dr_Willis, I want DLNA to stream video files as are. | 02:12 |
| crocket | I don't want transcoding which reduces A/V quality. | 02:13 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: so how would i go about getting my portable hard drive hooked up to my acer aspire one (netbook) to show up on the Xbmc | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | the specific dlna server can do differnt things. depend son the server | 02:13 |
| Psil0Cybin | I am used to windows | 02:13 |
| Psil0Cybin | where you just right click and share | 02:13 |
| Psil0Cybin | so im confused which to use | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: plug it in. add it as a source in the xbmc gui. | 02:13 |
| Psil0Cybin | samba vs others | 02:13 |
| Psil0Cybin | i cannot plug in the hard drive | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: samba is the easiest way | 02:13 |
| Psil0Cybin | it has to be plugged into another computer | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | xbmc -> add source. browse to the share. give it a name and let it scan it | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | my hard drive is on a laptop, my raspberry pi is the server | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | but it wont let me share | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | the folder | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | .... | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | so im guessing i need to do | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | sudo apt-get install samba | 02:14 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | ? | 02:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Raspberry Pi - running XBMC can work as a DLNA server and serve to other xbmc machines on the network. | 02:14 |
| crocket | How does ubuntu mount its encrypted home? | 02:14 |
| jrib | crocket: ecryptfs | 02:14 |
| crocket | /etc/profile /etc/profile.d and ~/.profile don't seem to do it. | 02:14 |
| jrib | !encrypt | crocket | 02:14 |
| ubottu | crocket: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory | 02:14 |
| Dr_Willis | I do Pi+xbmc to other pis and xbmc servers all the time. | 02:14 |
| crocket | jrib, It seems to use truecrypt | 02:14 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay Dr_Willis im confused, sorry...you lost me | 02:15 |
| Psil0Cybin | so do i use Samba? | 02:15 |
| Psil0Cybin | i dont think my ubuntu machine has samba | 02:15 |
| jrib | crocket: are you sure? How did you set them up? Anyway, the ecryptfs stuff should happen through pam | 02:15 |
| Psil0Cybin | so im guesing i need to get it correct? | 02:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: you dont HAVE to use samba. XBMC can access many types of sources for videos | 02:15 |
| crocket | jrib, I have .TrueCrypt under my home directory. | 02:15 |
| Dr_Willis | samba is one of the easiest ways however | 02:15 |
| Psil0Cybin | but it cannot find my hard drive | 02:15 |
| Dr_Willis | 'what' can not find the hard drive | 02:15 |
| Psil0Cybin | it lets me find sources but not my videos | 02:15 |
| Psil0Cybin | the xmbc | 02:15 |
| Dr_Willis | did you set up a 'share;' to share the hard drive? | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | xmbc cannot find any media | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | no | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | i am trying to do that | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | thats what i want to have done | 02:16 |
| Dr_Willis | so what is shareing the hard drive? what OS what pc? | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | Xubuntu | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | is the machine | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | and a hard drive is a portable usb hard drive | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | i want to share the usb hard drive | 02:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | to the xbmc | 02:16 |
| Dr_Willis | and you are shareing them TO what exactly? a Raspberry Pi running XBMC? | 02:16 |
| bazhang | Psil0Cybin, commas, not enter key | 02:17 |
| guest__ | Is there a way to give each of my workspaces their own wallpapers? | 02:17 |
| jrib | crocket: how did you setup your encrypted homes/ | 02:17 |
| crocket | jrib, I checked "encrypt home" in ubuntu liveCD installer | 02:17 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: that is correct | 02:17 |
| crocket | I just installed 13.04 | 02:17 |
| Psil0Cybin | i want my Rpi to see my hard drive connected to a laptop | 02:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | on the same network | 02:18 |
| jrib | crocket: what ubuntu version? | 02:18 |
| guest__ | I am running Ubuntu 12.04 x64. | 02:18 |
| crocket | jrib, 13.04 | 02:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: want to know the easyiest way? Set up PLEX on the ubuntu box. and then use the raspberrypi-PLEX disrto on the pi. ;) | 02:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | oh boy | 02:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay | 02:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | ill just try samba | 02:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: or if you want to go samba route.. right click on the mounted video drive. and see if you can 'share' it | 02:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | so i would sudo apt-get install samba | 02:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | if i dont have it correct | 02:19 |
| Psil0Cybin | ? | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | go ahead and install samba. its not like its huge. ;) | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | right click->share - on ubuntu will automatically install samba (it will ask) | 02:19 |
| Psil0Cybin | i do not see | 02:19 |
| Psil0Cybin | right click share | 02:19 |
| Psil0Cybin | on my hard drive | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | perhaps xubuntu dont have it. I normally use ubuntu/unity | 02:19 |
| Psil0Cybin | Eject - Open terminal - Zoom in - Zoom out | 02:19 |
| Psil0Cybin | so im going to go ahead and try and install samba | 02:20 |
| jrib | crocket: it's possible you've setup truecrypt but I'm fairly certain ubuntu uses ecryptfs for encrypted homes | 02:20 |
| crocket | hmm | 02:20 |
| crocket | jrib, I haven't formatted /home | 02:20 |
| jrib | crocket: you should have .ecryptfs probably in /home or /home/user | 02:20 |
| crocket | If I instructed ubuntu installer not to format /home, does it ignore home encryption? | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | hmm. xubuntus file manager - dosent seem to have shareing as a feature. | 02:21 |
| jrib | crocket: well my guess would be that any new account would still be setup using ecryptfs but that's just what I would expect | 02:21 |

| Psil0Cybin | i installed samba | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | moo? | 02:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | how do i configure it so the xbmc can pick up the folder? | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | did you make a share?> | 02:45 |
| Obi1 | Ghostery is mystery company whit double standarts says one page in internet | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: do you make a share by adding something with the link to the file in the samba.conf | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | ? | 02:45 |
| Obi1 | Hi Willis | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: shares can be defined in /etc/samba/smb.conf correct | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: thers also a feature that lets you have user defined shars. but those are not really needed | 02:45 |
| bwayne | they provide an excellent service. What they say they're blocking, they're blocking. | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: what filesystem is on the external usb hd? | 02:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: how do i find out | 02:46 |
| bwayne | ..."says one page on the internet " ... let's see what else I can find on one page on the internetz. | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: sudo blkid or 'sudo fdisk -l' | 02:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | sdb1 | 02:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | is the partition | 02:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | so sdb | 02:47 |

| Dr_Willis | what FILESYSTEM is the partion formated to - is the imporntant part | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | ntfs, vfatm ext3/4 | 02:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | NTFS | 02:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | sorry | 02:48 |
| Obi1 | http://www.evidon.com/consumers-privacy/ghostery | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | you will most likely need to make an ectry in /etc/fstab to mount it where all users can read from it. the 'ntfs-config' tool should be able to automate that for you | 02:48 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: do i need to download an application | 02:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | so sudo apt-get intall ntfs-config | 02:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | ? | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | yes Psil0Cybin its not installed by default | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | or you can make a fstab entry by hand. - example line from my fstab.. | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | UUID=19C853E9785E19AE/media/VideoShare3000ntfs-3gdefaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8,noauto00 | 02:49 |

| Dr_Willis | UUID=19C853E9785E19AE /media/VideoShare3000 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8,noauto 0 0 | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | you get your UUID from that sudo blkid command. | 02:50 |
| === Guest26308 is now known as bigtip | ||
| Obi1 | :P i look them up | 02:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay so hold on | 02:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | i got ntfs-config | 02:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | i enable write to the drive? | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | you really just need guests to have full read access. but you may want to allow read/write | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | if you truely want full access from the remote pcs | 02:52 |
| Psil0Cybin | all i want is to play videos on the media centre. | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | im on a home lan - so i let all the users have full access | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | you need READ access.. writeing is optional | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | its easy to change this later. The trick is you have to have open enough permissions on the share. for xbmc to access it. | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: when i select the sdb1 so /media/area51 and click support for external devices it also checks off internal devices | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | is that normal | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | i do not want to share my internal hard drive | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | only the one it shows bellow in the box | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | but just the defaults should work. You want it mounted from fstab - because it really should be mounted at boot time. Not afte the user logs in and sccess it | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | media/area51 which i called my hard drive | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | is your usb hd mounted right now? | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | you can just make a fstab entry to mount your sdb1 by hand and not even use ntfs-config but its a handy tool to have/know about | 02:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | yea its mounted right now | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | or you could just share all of /media/ then every drive you plug in and access would be availiable over the network. | 02:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | but is it normal that ntfs-tool also selected to share internal sources | 02:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | but it onlky shows the folder of the hard drive | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | No idea - ntfs-config is a little weird at times | 02:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | i just want to make sure my home directory isnt being shared | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | you can setup a home share if you want. ;) it will still need your users password. | 02:56 |
| dre_ | hey guy | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | I share my home/videos ;) | 02:56 |
| dre_ | i am trying to make a one key run a script ubuntu server | 02:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | sigh | 02:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: | 02:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | still no luck | 02:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | the xbmc does not find any folders!! | 02:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | i cannot figure out what is going on | 02:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | all i want to do is share a simple folder.... | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: you havent made a SHARE YET have you? | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | you need to MOUNT the drive somewhere. then share that location | 02:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | well i didnt know how to do it | 02:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | well the drive is mounted | 02:59 |
| Psil0Cybin | im looking @ the files now | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | ntfs-config or fstab will MOUNT it somewhere. | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | where does 'mount' say its mounted to? | 02:59 |
| Psil0Cybin | mount point | 02:59 |
| SchrodingersScat | I prefer sshfs when I can use it. | 02:59 |
| Psil0Cybin | media/area51 | 02:59 |
| Psil0Cybin | area51 (is my hd name) | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | so if the path is /media/area51 you need to make a samba SHARE that shares that path | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | that would be in /etc/samba/smb.conf | 03:00 |
| Psil0Cybin | Yes | 03:00 |
| Psil0Cybin | i see a share | 03:00 |
| Psil0Cybin | in samba/smb.conf | 03:00 |
| Psil0Cybin | it says | 03:00 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:00 |
| dre_ | any help | 03:00 |
| daftykins | NO HELP | 03:01 |
| daftykins | unless you ask. | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | there are dozens of example shares in that file. You need to make an entry for your specicic location | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: ` for example there is a ;[cdrom] share You can use that one as a templlate | 03:01 |
| Psil0Cybin | [Area51] path = /media/Area51 ; writeable = no ; browsable = yes ; guest = okay | 03:01 |
| Psil0Cybin | = yes | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | so how did you make that share? | 03:01 |
| Psil0Cybin | so i uncomment | 03:01 |
| Psil0Cybin | writeable | 03:01 |
| Psil0Cybin | and browsable? | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | you dont need it writeable. you do want it browseable i imagine | 03:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | i made it with a GUI program called Samba offered in Ubuntu programs | 03:02 |
| Dr_Willis | and the path is correct? | 03:02 |
| dre_ | i would like to map a key to run a script ubunut server | 03:02 |
| Dr_Willis | also be sure it has guest ok = ok | 03:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay | 03:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | i changed it to browsable | 03:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | saved it | 03:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | and still i cannot find it | 03:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | on the Pi | 03:02 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | it has | 03:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | guest ok = yes | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | you need to restart the samba service i belive. 'sudo service samba restart' | 03:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | says | 03:03 |
| dre_ | i would like to map a key to run a script ubunut server | 03:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | samba unrecognized service | 03:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | :S | 03:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | wtf | 03:04 |
| Dr_Willis | i would also give your USER a samba password with 'sudo smbpasswd -a YOURUSERNAME' | 03:04 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:04 |
| Dr_Willis | You did install the samba service?> | 03:04 |
| Psil0Cybin | yes.... | 03:04 |
| Psil0Cybin | when i type sudo apt-get install samba | 03:04 |
| Psil0Cybin | it says | 03:04 |
| Psil0Cybin | 0 installed 0 updated samba is already the newest version | 03:04 |

| asadak | Help in how to insatll ubuntu mini remix in virtual box | 03:14 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, ask in virtualbox, specifically under their other linux feature | 03:14 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, unless there's an ubuntu specific problem, you're not gonna get any help in here for that problem likely | 03:14 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, but I'd also recommend just selecting the "Ubuntu" option, it'll likely just work ;) | 03:15 |
| OldTexas | Welp. I bought this TP Link TL-WN725N wireless USB thing thinkin' I'd replace my cable cause I'm movin' the PC. System don;t see nothin'. Any idys. | 03:15 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, try installing drivers yet? | 03:16 |
| asadak | i have setup the os and it stops at something like a terminal | 03:16 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, that's usually the problem with wifi on linux | 03:16 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, are you sure that's not normal | 03:16 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, 'mini' sounds barebones | 03:16 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, it might not have a ui? | 03:17 |
| OldTexas | It's only got Win drivers. Should I try those? | 03:17 |
| asadak | chocolatemousse : in the terminal like thing - it says Welcome to Ubuntu 13.04 | 03:17 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, then it worked | 03:17 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, gonna have to consult the manual with regards to if any X is supported | 03:17 |
| asadak | chocolatemousse : so where is the installer | 03:18 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, you don't have a problem, your 'Ubuntu' is installed/booted | 03:18 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, the problem (unless you can show me otherwise) is that you don't understand what you're doing | 03:18 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, sounds like to me that IS the installer | 03:18 |
| asadak | chocolatemousse : can you help me how to install a UI | 03:18 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, don't install the mini version | 03:18 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, just use the regular install | 03:18 |
| asadak | Why ? | 03:18 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, because that has a ui, that's why | 03:19 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, yeah, try the ndiswrapper | 03:19 |
| OldTexas | alrighty | 03:19 |
| valeness | g nickserv identify a803bla | 03:19 |
| valeness | Well shit | 03:19 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, make sure you install the dkms kernel modules as well | 03:20 |
| valeness | Time to burn my computer | 03:20 |
| OldTexas | OK... headin out to figger out what all that means... brb | 03:20 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, I think Ubuntu doesn't come with them by default, and the ndiswrapper kernel modules are missing from the repos, which I think is a problem - haven't confirmed myself but I was helping someone in here the other day with it and it seemed like that was the case | 03:20 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, just a heads up | 03:20 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, a kernel modules is kinda like a driver | 03:20 |
| chocolatemousse | !info ndiswrapper | 03:21 |
| ubottu | Package ndiswrapper does not exist in raring | 03:21 |
| asadak | chocolatemousse any help in installing the UI that is user friendly | 03:21 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, use ubuntu.org and download the iso? | 03:21 |
| chocolatemousse | or whatever the ubuntu.com site is | 03:21 |
| asadak | I have Ubuntu | 03:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: question | 03:21 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, you said you have 'Mini' I don't know what that is | 03:21 |
| asadak | But i need to try out Ubuntu Mini Remix | 03:21 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, *sigh* well you did | 03:22 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: the computer i am sharing the drive off cannot access the internet anymore do you think what ever i did could have messed with the drivers | 03:22 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, and you didn't like it | 03:22 |
| bazhang | !mini > chocolatemousse | 03:22 |
| ubottu | chocolatemousse, please see my private message | 03:22 |
| chocolatemousse | bazhang, asadak ok he needs to know that then | 03:22 |
| chocolatemousse | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 03:22 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, read that | 03:22 |
| asadak | chocolatemousse : http://www.ubuntu-mini-remix.org/ | 03:23 |
| bazhang | chocolatemousse, ndis is the very last step to suggest for fixing wireless issues | 03:23 |
| chocolatemousse | bazhang, ok | 03:23 |
| chocolatemousse | bazhang, assumed OldTexas had a bit more experience than I should have perhaps | 03:23 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, if you are here, bazhang is right you should first check for wifi drivers for your card, native to linux | 03:24 |
| OldTexas | I'm a scratchin' my head, but if you got me pinted in the right direction I'll get there. :) | 03:24 |
| OldTexas | K... | 03:25 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, well ndiswrapper is a last resort we use to try and load windows wifi drivers inside linux | 03:25 |
| Omen_20 | anyone know if bluetooth has been messed with in recent updates? My bluetooth has stopped connecting out of the blue. | 03:25 |
| OldTexas | Ah, reading about it now.... | 03:25 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, if you don't know about kernel modules then you may well have not known there are linux drivers for your card (potentially) | 03:25 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, read the link I sent you | 03:26 |
| asadak | So should i install the iso ? | 03:26 |
| OldTexas | I was lookin' earlier and it made some references to RealTek card drivers.... Just had oodles a stuff and I kinda got bogged down, but y'all got me going' again. Lookin' now. | 03:27 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, ok. :) | 03:27 |
| dre_ | how to make ubuntu server run a shell script with key press | 03:27 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, hang on gonna dig up the official wifi tutorial, the steps go like so: a) find your wifi card number b) find drivers c) install drivers d) test e) scratch your head and conclude they didn't install f) try ndiswrapper | 03:27 |
| bazhang | dre_, try in #ubuntu-server yet? | 03:28 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, I assumed you had already tried steps a through e sorry ;) | 03:28 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, you seemed smart :) | 03:28 |
| dre_ | yes | 03:28 |
| dre_ | the script work | 03:28 |
| OldTexas | LOL K | 03:28 |
| dre_ | but i would like when i press a key it would run | 03:29 |
| chocolatemousse | !wifi | OldTexas | 03:29 |
| ubottu | OldTexas: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 03:29 |
| OldTexas | Well I was smart, then DOS replaced CP/m. Then I got smart again, n' the NT kernal replaced the DOS kernal, now I'm dumb as a box a rocks agian. | 03:30 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak, yes, go ahead and install - if you can't figure out the mini installer, either wait for someone to guide you through it or read the manual | 03:30 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak: but basically there is no gui installer | 03:30 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak: not with mini installer | 03:30 |
| chocolatemousse | asadak: you could create one that had a gui installer, but then you wouldn't be asking this question in the first place ;) | 03:31 |
| OldTexas | Workin' through it now, thanks for the heads up! | 03:31 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, Np :) | 03:31 |

| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, at the bottom of that page there are some technical tools to find your hardware version numbers | 03:41 |
| OldTexas | chocolatemousse, started it, I think I took a wrong left turn though | 03:41 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, you need to know a very specific model number | 03:41 |
| TsarObomba | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11-saucy/ | 03:41 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, yeah sometimes those docs aren't the most straightforward | 03:41 |
| chocolatemousse | TsarObomba, not helping | 03:41 |
| TsarObomba | its probably in firmware-nonfree | 03:42 |

| TsarObomba | Ari-Yang: I agreed with that before he decided i said "bad words".... | 03:44 |
| TsarObomba | heh | 03:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: xbmc can get to videos from a varity of sources. if you put xbmc on the laptop and set it up - IT can stream videos to other pcs on the network running xbmc | 03:45 |

| IdleOne | TsarObomba: announcing your ignores is not needed or helpful. Please don't do it again. | 03:47 |

| TsarObomba | IdleOne: im trying to peoplefully get him to stop | 03:48 |
| TsarObomba | That is all | 03:48 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: where is the fstab entry located | 03:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: the 'noauto' option in fstab will make it skip that drive untill you manually mount it | 03:48 |

| ubottu | Psil0Cybin: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 03:48 |
| Psil0Cybin | let me take a look | 03:48 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, I'm fine :) | 03:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: i belive it will ask/mtnion it cant be found and you can hit 's' to skip the drive at boot time | 03:49 |
| TsarObomba | OldTexas: try opening software center, or if you know how to use apt-get, oinstall "linux-firmware-nonfree" | 03:49 |
| TsarObomba | after than, reboot | 03:49 |
| TsarObomba | Chances are, your card will work | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: do i open /etc/fstab | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | with nano | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | and take a look? | 03:49 |
| OldTexas | worth a try | 03:49 |
| TsarObomba | OldTexas: definitely | 03:49 |
| TsarObomba | since i fixed an issue with a realtek wireless with that same package | 03:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: | 03:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | under options | 03:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | it aleady nosuid | 03:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | or somthing | 03:51 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | do i change it to noauto ? | 03:51 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, if you're new, I'd strongly urge you stick to the guide as closely as possible, deviations are what get you in trouble | 03:52 |
| OldTexas | sudo apt-get oinstall "linux-firmware-nonfree" <--- E: invalid operation oinstall ... ah, just install | 03:52 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, yup | 03:52 |
| gRAVIty2 | Error: The application Compiz has closed unexpectedly. Error details - They are in continuation 1) http://imagebin.org/270644 2) http://imagebin.org/270645 3) http://imagebin.org/270646 | 03:53 |
| gRAVIty2 | can you tell me what is happening? and what should I do about it. | 03:53 |
| OldTexas | chocolatemousse, it installed, worth a reboot doncha reckon? | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: the option is 'noauto' as in 'dont auto mount at boot time' | 03:53 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, not necessary | 03:53 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, if you wanna run 'uname -r' for me if its 3 or greater no need | 03:54 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, can't hurt if you want to keep things simple though | 03:54 |
| chocolatemousse | :) | 03:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: example fstab line -----> UUID=19C853E9785E19AE /media/VideoShare3000 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8,noauto 0 0 | 03:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: okay i figured it out i belive | 03:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | it works | 03:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: so now what can i try to be able to share my hard drive with my pi :( | 03:55 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, I'm only going to mention this as its relevant to any confusion you may be having - I cannot see what TsarObomba is saying, keep that in mind | 03:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | sorry to keep hounding you :( but i need ur help | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: samba, or a unpn/dlna server | 03:55 |
| gRAVIty2 | anybody has fundaes on compiz? | 03:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay well i tried samba but it seems to have problems with my hard drive, and being able to access it | 03:56 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, if you like his support better, its probably better to just listen to one person at a time, I won't be offended :) | 03:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | when i did try and stream a movie | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: if samba was not able to share the drive. it may be it needed differnt options in fstab. I cant get to my other file server to see how i mounted my NTFS drive for it so be shared by samba | 03:56 |
| OldTexas | K.... :) That's like havin' two backseaty drivers that are deaf. :) | 03:56 |
| chocolatemousse | Hehe yah | 03:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | Okay | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: most likely the issues are with HOW the drive is mounted. that fstab line may beed to be set to allow everyone full access | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | oh | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | sorry im new :P see im learning | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | just hard work aha | 03:57 |
| TsarObomba | of course, im not saying anythiing, cause im busy researching my own issues with bache | 03:57 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, he is going to give you the more technical route though, so if you don't mind the terminal commands its probably ok advice | 03:57 |
| TsarObomba | OldTexas: good luck :) | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: if you can see the vidoe files now.. and install xbmc on the laptop. THAT can share the files to the other xbmc player on the network | 03:57 |
| gRAVIty2 | chocolatemousse: I have a trouble with compiz. can you look ait it? | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | oh | 03:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | i can instal xbmc? | 03:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | on my computer | 03:58 |
| OldTexas | I need a SSID | 03:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | and share it that way? | 03:58 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, ok, do you know what the name of your wireless network is? | 03:58 |
| OldTexas | Did, one sec | 03:58 |
| chocolatemousse | That'll be your SSID | 03:59 |
| chocolatemousse | usually you can find it on the bottom of the router | 03:59 |
| TsarObomba | awesome looks like tyhat fuxed his chip | 03:59 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, if you do have the wifi drivers installed now everything should just show up in the wifi dropdown | 03:59 |
| TsarObomba | that fixed* | 03:59 |
| OldTexas | I waddn;'t that smart hen I set it up... | 03:59 |
| chocolatemousse | OldTexas, not knowledgeable, but smart, and level headed :) | 04:00 |
| lotuspsychje | morning to all | 04:00 |
| chocolatemousse | lotuspsychje, morning | 04:00 |
| gRAVIty2 | I have this compiz error: The application Compiz has closed unexpectedly. Can someone help? | 04:00 |
| OldTexas | Lemme do a reboot, won;t take but a sec... | 04:01 |
| lotuspsychje | chocolatemousse: tnx mate! | 04:01 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: you know what i cannot figure out | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | after all my tinkering right now my wlan0 is not acting right | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | that one laptop i was doing this stuff on cannot connect to the net, like it does | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | but then it times out | 04:02 |
| gRAVIty2 | lotuspsychje: do u have fundaes on compiz? | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | then it does again and times out | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | but my other netbook is connected perfectly fine | 04:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: could be some weird wireless driver issue. | 04:02 |
| lotuspsychje | !info fundaes | 04:02 |
| ubottu | Package fundaes does not exist in raring | 04:02 |
| lotuspsychje | gRAVIty2: never heard of iot, what does it do? | 04:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: samba woudnt have done it right | 04:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | because it was working before | 04:03 |
| Psil0Cybin | perfectly fine | 04:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: xbmc can work as a dlna/upnp server. | 04:03 |
| Dr_Willis | samba is a service. it wouldent affect your networking | 04:03 |
| gRAVIty2 | lol :) i have a problem with compiz | 04:03 |
| lotuspsychje | !details | gRAVIty2 | 04:03 |
| ubottu | gRAVIty2: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 04:03 |
| chocolatemousse | !ask | gRAVIty2 | 04:04 |
| ubottu | gRAVIty2: 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 | 04:04 |

| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: i dunno how to use dlna or upnp | 04:04 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, so does it run for you at all? | 04:04 |
| Psil0Cybin | i might just go back to burning dvds lol never knew xbmc could be sooooooooooo hard | 04:05 |
| Psil0Cybin | just to share a hard drive | 04:05 |
| Psil0Cybin | lmaoooo | 04:05 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, or is it just crashing randomly? | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: install one of the many dlna/upnp servers. configure it.. run it. ;) | 04:05 |
| gRAVIty2 | it does. It kind of restarts it self. | 04:05 |
| gRAVIty2 | chocolatemouse: yes it is just crashing randomly | 04:05 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, are you sending the bug reports? | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: as i said. If you run xbmcv on the pc. IT can share to the other pcs | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: my Pi's share to each other that way | 04:05 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, you can just 'ignore future problems' | 04:05 |
| gRAVIty2 | chocolatemousse: I am sending reports | 04:05 |
| chocolatemousse | looks like as well | 04:05 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, if you can live with the crashes | 04:05 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, if not you can look at updating your drivers | 04:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: Or install PLEX on the pc. and use the raspberry pi-plex disrto and it turns the pi into an instant video player from the plex server | 04:06 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, what's your card? | 04:06 |
| gRAVIty2 | how do i find the card details? It is a laptop x200 tablet. Can you tell me the command to find out the card? | 04:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Psil0Cybin: for a simpler test case. you could make a samba shar of your videos direcvtory in your home and see if the pi can find it. | 04:06 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, otherwise you'll likely have to wait for the devs to fix it | 04:06 |

| chocolatemousse | they* | 04:08 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, anyways good luck, I gotta bow out, getting tired and allergies are really getting to me. | 04:09 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: i actually cannot figure out why my wifi doesnt work on my HP that i tried to install the samba on | 04:09 |
| gRAVIty2 | thanks for your time.Good night | 04:09 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: it did just an hr ago | 04:09 |
| chocolatemousse | gRAVIty2, you're welcome :) Night | 04:09 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis: it says its connected to network but gets no internet but my net is working fine | 04:09 |

| OldTexas | Can, I jes upgraded mine. | 04:24 |
| tony___ | OldTexas: How to do so? | 04:24 |
| OldTexas | Regular update deal in Ubuntu did it for me. You workin' command line or in a GUI | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !mainline | 04:25 |
| ubottu | The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds | 04:25 |
| tony___ | OldTexas: I can work in both. But usual apt-get only updates me to 3.2.xx | 04:26 |
| OldTexas | Ther ya go... | 04:26 |
| OldTexas | Thast's the latest stable ain;t it? | 04:26 |
| m113t | Can anyone identify with a bug that I have, in the sense that the "graphical boot screen" is not loading? Its like a command line but still has a purple background. | 04:27 |

| James_Epp | Is there going to be a release of Ubuntu TV similar to that of XBMCbuntu anytime soon? I'd love to switch over my current xbmc experience to an ubuntu one. I feel as if xbmc is just a bit too cluttered for use in my family where the parents are not exactly computer literate, and one is legally blind whom cannot use the current xbmc setup if his life depended on it. | 04:36 |

| m113t | Anyone know of a Linux equivalent to Download Meter (DU Meter) on windows?? | 04:37 |

| lotuspsychje | m113t: make a startup usb from 13.04 ubuntu iso yes | 04:49 |

| crocket | Dr_Willis: I think it's mesa or video driver problem. | 05:01 |
| Dr_Willis | at the console. make a new user. 'sudo adduser billgates' | 05:01 |
| crocket | steam messed with those. | 05:01 |
| Dr_Willis | see if that user fails - if so - then that would point to a system issue | 05:01 |
| Dr_Willis | its possible its a 3d driver/gfx issue with unity/compiz. you could install a lighter desktop that dosent use compiz. as a temp fix. | 05:02 |
| Dr_Willis | if the new user DOES work - that points to a setting issue with the problem user | 05:02 |
| m113t | Whats a lighter desktop that still allows you to keep the Unity layout?? | 05:02 |
| kostkon | crocket, did you add the xorg-edgers ppa? | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | m113t: you could use most any window manager and a dock on the left hand side. | 05:03 |
| Atrumx | what's the issue? window manager won't start? | 05:03 |
| m113t | Dr_Willis: I realize that, but I think unity makes linux quite user friendly... | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | m113t: if you want unity - you use unity | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | if you want a launcher on th eleft thats not unity. setup a dock. or gnome-shell | 05:04 |
| m113t | Fair enough, thanks Dr_Willis | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | !dock | 05:04 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu includes several dock-like navigation bars. Some options are: avant-window-navigator, cairo-dock, docky (formerly part of gnome-do), stalonetray, simdock, kdocker, kooldock. | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | bbl | 05:04 |
| crocket | Dr_Willis: I created a new user and tried to log in with it, but I was repelled back to lightdm. | 05:04 |
| crocket | kostkon: no | 05:05 |
| kostkon | crocket, ok | 05:05 |
| m113t | !audio | 05:07 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 05:07 |

| TeflonDog | I have a gigabyte Brix (so no CD/DVD drives) running ubuntu 13.04. i want to uninstall it and install win8 from the usb. i enter bios to select boot but only my SSD shows up. no option to boot from USB. how can i boot from usb? | 05:24 |
| reisio | TeflonDog: is there a bootable usb image even connected? | 05:25 |
| TeflonDog | yes, i believe so. i created a win8 boot usb from an iso and it is plugged in. | 05:26 |
| TeflonDog | i used that win7 usb boot creator program | 05:27 |
| crocket | damn it. I'm just reinstalling ubuntu. | 05:28 |
| crocket | linux hardware support still sucks. | 05:28 |
| xmetal | back | 05:29 |
| Seven_Six_Two | that's not true. more hardware is supported with linux | 05:29 |
| xmetal | depends on your hardware and willingness to try to get it to work, if you ask me | 05:29 |
| xmetal | years ago i had a pain with RH Linux and hardware ... i almost never have to manually install anything with modern distros | 05:30 |
| xmetal | :) | 05:30 |
| UserError | xmetal, technically you could make a massive kernel to support all hardware | 05:31 |
| UserError | and download all the bins | 05:32 |
| Dr_Willis | i definatly have a lot of hardwre that windows7+ no longer supports | 05:32 |
| UserError | and still would weigh less than WinSxS | 05:32 |
| Dr_Willis | TeflonDog: id see if a linux boot usb shows up. Its possible you made the windows usb wrongly | 05:33 |
| xmetal | well assuming usb drive was created correctly ... there is one option i tried on my old laptop (with failing hardware anyway) that ... was sort of buggy to be honest | 05:35 |
| xmetal | (old laptop had no usb support, but this allowed me to do so) | 05:35 |
| UserError | Does anyone know what the actual direct Xorg (non-meta, or just add meta fillers after) packages required for ubuntu are for the intel HD platform? | 05:35 |
| xmetal | dang ... i forgot the name | 05:35 |
| xmetal | brb | 05:35 |
| xmetal | starts with a P i think and it is a bootloader that loads before grub if i am not mistake | 05:36 |
| TeflonDog | ok. i guess i can make another ubuntu boot usb and try that. but in the bios it only shows Crucial SSD ... it won't show the usb drive unless there is a bootable file on it? | 05:36 |
| coolot | hello guys i'm back. i can see /dev/sda1-4 | 05:36 |

| Fekall | Dr_Willis...is there an easy fix for that...I am really linux challenged | 05:52 |
| Fekall | I did read something about booting using the disk and then changing some directories or something to that effect | 05:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Fekall: check your /etc/fstab and compare it to the UUID of your /boot/ partition. | 05:54 |
| Dr_Willis | s- should skip it and bgoot the system up. but its odd that its /boot/ | 05:54 |
| Dr_Willis | unless you setup a seperate /boot/ partition | 05:54 |
| Fekall | dont think so | 05:55 |
| Fekall | I just followed the prompts | 05:55 |
| Fekall | when loading | 05:55 |
| Fekall | I did run a restore from the disk once | 05:55 |
| Dr_Willis | somthing is weird then if you dd not specifically create a /boot/ partition | 05:55 |
| Dwood | hey guys | 05:55 |
| Fekall | and reloaded the grub | 05:55 |
| Fekall | might have done some damage then | 05:55 |
| Dwood | Right quick, i need some tips, I assume this is a simple fix but not sure | 05:56 |
| Dwood | So I start ubuntu and my mouse (utechsmart 8200dpa mouse) | 05:56 |
| Dwood | does not work | 05:56 |
| Fekall | ok Dr_Willis...I will check that stuff out..thanks | 05:57 |
| Dwood | Where can i look to discover possible solutions | 05:57 |
| Dwood | A google on the subject turned up answers for touchpads and did nothing to alleviate the problem | 05:57 |

| coolot | hello guys newbie here... i have 4 partitions i created with win7 and i installed ubuntu in a separate hard drive. the thing is ubuntu is only seeing 3 partitions drives but when i do fdisk -l i am seeing 4 of them. any advise guys. | 05:59 |
| Dwood | It's got a couple of extra features but nothing extraordinary imho | 05:59 |
| Dwood | It's not even wireless | 05:59 |
| Dwood | The mouse is receiving power | 05:59 |

| Dr_Willis | stinkt: now look at the /etc/fstab file and see if that sda1 is supposed to be / or /boot because that uuid does not match what you showed eralier.. | 06:25 |

| Dr_Willis | drcasper_: why do youneed a gui on a server? You can install just a window manager. like jwm. Lubuntu would be the lightest desktop | 06:34 |

| Dr_Willis | drcasper_: you should have installed a desktop edition then. not a server | 06:35 |
| drcasper_ | i didnt have a choice. i got a VPS that came with 12.10 | 06:35 |
| aeon-ltd | crocket: then you should look into that process and why it has a long shutdown time | 06:35 |
| crocket | aeon-ltd: That's what I have been doing. | 06:36 |

| drcasper_ | Dr_Willis: thank you for your imput..there is not much i need to do with that machine.. i just want to setup a mail server and a web server, but i think i would need some graphical interface to feel more comfortable.. which one would you recomend? i have 50gb in that box and my site is going to be a static page.. | 06:36 |
| UserError | sorry i'm drunkk | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | drcasper_: and how to you plan on using this desktop youinstall on the vps? | 06:37 |
| drcasper_ | ..so i'm not gonna be using a lot of space | 06:37 |
| aeon-ltd | usererror indeed | 06:37 |
| drcasper_ | i can remote into this machine via freenx or tightvnc ? | 06:37 |
| Dr_Willis | drcasper_: you dont really need any desktop. a simple window manager will do | 06:37 |
| Dr_Willis | and you can use x forwarding/ssh | 06:37 |

| crocket | I'm sure ubuntu is a great OS, and its inherent vaule doesn't go away just because of a single weird bug, but I don't have time to investigate the bug, and the bug is too annoying!!! | 06:38 |
| Artemis3 | UserError, yw | 06:39 |
| drcasper_ | Dr_Willis: ok.. i'll take that route.. which is your windows manager of choice if i may ask ? | 06:39 |
| slick0_ | if you cant sell it it bug it | 06:39 |
| wylde | crocket: then I'd suggest using the LTS version | 06:39 |
| crocket | wylde: It's the kernel version that's wrong. | 06:40 |
| Dr_Willis | drcasper_: any of them will do the basic jobs. jwm is the tinyiest one i belive | 06:40 |

| Ashva | Hi, I have installed ubuntu 12.04 on vaio Z series ultra thin, Does any one know how can I install driver for it's fingerprint? | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | stinkt: you seem to be using LVM - thats somthing i never use. | 06:54 |
| stinkt | oh..damn | 06:54 |
| raven | AShva, what is the exact model? | 06:54 |
| stinkt | well then...maybe a reinstall is called for then | 06:54 |
| stinkt | dammit. | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | stinkt: and are you using Mint? If so you should be in the Mint support channels | 06:54 |
| stinkt | no | 06:54 |
| raven | Ashva, is this the Z13 ultraThin? | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu dosent use lvm by default | 06:54 |
| stinkt | I had to boot off of this disk | 06:55 |
| Ashva | raven: thanks for reply, I'm not really sure | 06:55 |
| crocket | Should I execute "add-apt-repository http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/" to register mainline kernel ppa to my system? | 06:55 |
| stinkt | I am running ubuntu server 13.04 | 06:55 |
| Ashva | raven: let me check | 06:55 |
| raven | There should be a model somewhere on the laptop, on a sticker. | 06:55 |
| auronandace | crocket: if thats what you want (be aware we can't support ppas here) | 06:56 |
| crocket | I want to know how to add a ppa properly | 06:56 |
| auronandace | !ppa | crocket | 06:56 |
| crocket | I can't figure out the right argument to add-apt-repository | 06:56 |
| crocket | auronandace, The bot is dead. | 06:56 |
| Ashva | raven: svZ13 | 06:56 |
| Dr_Willis | the ppa web sites show the commands to use under their help popup | 06:56 |
| raven | crocket - sudo add-apt-repository ppa:<insertPPA> | 06:56 |
| rabten | hi, i just installed ubuntu 12.04. in firefox, when i click on a file (such as one of the 'install now's from http://www.getdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/12.04/?category=Graphics&page=2), the 'Launch Application With' dialogue box appears, but not the program i want to use, such as the Software Center. is this a common problem? | 06:57 |
| crocket | raven, The problem is that I can't figure out the ppa name of mainline kernel ppa. | 06:57 |
| raven | corcket, you are attemptingt to put 12.04 into Mainline correct? | 06:57 |
| Ashva | raven: yeah your right, it's VAIO SVZ131 | 06:57 |
| Ashva | a2 | 06:57 |
| rabten | also i can't locate it from the 'choose another' menu | 06:58 |
| raven | Ashva, the fingerprint scanner on your laptop is currenlty not supported, but apparently will be supported in the 3.10 kernel mainline release. It is a new Authentech system and thus has not been coded for LInux yet. | 06:58 |
| raven | crocket, You are attempting to put 12.04 into Mainline correct> | 06:58 |
| crocket | raven, I'm using 13.04 | 06:58 |
| stinkt | Dr_Willis: ..thanks for trying to help me out..appreciate it much! | 06:59 |
| Ashva | raven: thank you very much, You helped me alot | 06:59 |
| === minimalize is now known as m113t | ||
| raven | My pleasure Ashva | 06:59 |
| raven | Crocket , i do not believe there is a Mainline PPA, as it is the Proposed PPA that handles the kernel updates. Are you attempting to update Kernel to the latest? i found that you have to manually install the kernel | 07:00 |
| Dr_Willis | i really wouldent go too far out of my way for a fingerprint scanner. ;) | 07:01 |
| rabten | hi, i'm on 12.04. Using Firefox. when i click on a d/l link, or file, the 'launch application with' box appears, but not the program i want to use, the software center. i can't locate the software center from the 'choose another' list either | 07:01 |
| m113t | What does everybody think of the new iPhone 5S? | 07:01 |
| crocket | raven, 3.8.0-19-generic hangs during shutdown. | 07:01 |
| raven | m113t, it's apple crap, nuff said | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis | rabten: you want a .deb to automatically open with software center? | 07:02 |
| auronandace | m113t: off topic | 07:02 |
| helmut_ | hi | 07:02 |
| raven | crocket, you are using 64bit correct? | 07:02 |
| rabten | Dr. yes, i have installed the pacakge and GPG key for getdeb | 07:02 |
| crocket | raven, yes | 07:03 |
| Dr_Willis | rabten: it would be easier to gdebi as the app to use for .deb files. or just download the .deb then double click on it. | 07:03 |
| raven | crocket, please check out this page : http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-the-linux-kernel-3-9-9-on-ubuntu-debian-derivates/ | 07:03 |
| raven | crocket, that link has instructions on using wget int the terminal to manually get the 3.9.9 kernel and how to install them. | 07:03 |
| === warlock_ is now known as Guest56526 | ||
| raven | I found that the 3.9.9 kernel is a lot faster, and less how power hungry than 3.8 which has power regressions. If that does not fix your shutdown issue, please let me know of any errors that show up during shutdown | 07:04 |
| rabten | Dr. i'm following a book 'ubuntu made easy'. and have followed instructions for adding the getdeb repository. now it says to go to the website, choose 'install now' and then choose 'the software center' from the launch application with box. but it's not there, is that common? i also experience the same thing with a file i wanted to launch with Deluge, - Deluge didn't appear in the 'launch app with' box and i couldn't find it | 07:05 |
| treeprogram | hi, I'm getting the following error show up when I boot up "hda-intel: no codecs found" | 07:05 |
| rabten | in 'choose another' | 07:05 |
| auronandace | rabten: be aware that installing .debs from outside the official repos can cause dependency problems | 07:05 |
| treeprogram | it started occurring after I was forced to do a hard reboot. Any suggestions on how I can fix it? | 07:05 |
| crocket | raven, I'm somewhat disappointed by the wrong choice of kernel version. | 07:05 |
| Dr_Willis | rabten: i would imagine that book is out of date. personally i associate 'gdebi' with .debs (well gdebi-gtk) since it would load in 1/6th the time software center would take to load | 07:06 |
| Dr_Willis | rabten: easiest is just to save the .deb and then install themn | 07:06 |
| raven | crocket, what do you mean by the wrong choice? | 07:07 |
| rabten | ok i tried that. there's no 'save' option though , just 'launch application' . how do i save or download the .deb ? the site i am on is http://www.getdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/12.04/?category=Graphics&page=2 | 07:08 |
| crocket | raven, 3.8.0 is a wrong choice. | 07:08 |
| rabten | (and the book is actually using 13.04 so i think it's recent) | 07:08 |
| karab44 | hello | 07:09 |
| raven | crocket, i hear your pain. Im dual booting ElementaryoS (12.04) and Ubuntu 13.04, and found that 3.8 on both of those are buggy as. Ever since the 3.6 Kernel, i havent been able to login with lightdm fluently. I hope that 3.10 fixes these issues | 07:09 |
| raven | hello karab44 :) | 07:09 |
| karab44 | :D | 07:09 |
| karab44 | how's goin? | 07:09 |
| karab44 | I thought that I can improve my ubuntu by making my mouse more useful | 07:09 |
| crocket | raven, Linux is certainly a win, but it's buggy. | 07:10 |
| karab44 | for example, when I press mouse button 3 on web browser I should expect something like scroll in every direction, but it doesn't work | 07:10 |
| karab44 | how to extend mouse functionality? | 07:10 |
| raven | crocket, Linux is only buggy because its basically reverse engineered by the public. It is a LOT more powerful than Windows and MacOSX, but becuase of its complexity, one little problem can ruin it. | 07:10 |
| crocket | raven, Why is it reverse engineered? It is opensource. | 07:11 |
| raven | crocket, When i say reverse engineered i mean that the public has to come sometimes come up with fixes for problems because the designers / company that make the peripheral or hardware etc will not fix it. | 07:12 |
| karab44 | Ok I found solution, Ty :) | 07:12 |
| crocket | raven, So hardware vendors make people reverse-engineer their hardwares? | 07:13 |
| Dr_Willis | crocket: yes. | 07:13 |
| Dr_Willis | crocket: they dont release specs.. so people have to figure them out | 07:14 |
| raven | Crocket, exactly what Dr_Willis said. | 07:14 |
| raven | crocket : Because of this, sometimes things dont run as expected because the community is having to take something that they didn't create, and make drivers for it. | 07:14 |
| karab44 | nope, I was wrong | 07:15 |
| raven | karab44, what exactly were you trying to accomplish? | 07:16 |
| karab44 | on middle button, when I press it in ie web browser I should have horizontal and vertical scrolling, same thing in nautilus and others... | 07:17 |
| drcasper_ | could anyone recommend me a good - easy to use - light mail server for 12.10 ? | 07:17 |
| karab44 | but it doesn't work | 07:17 |
| drcasper_ | also the same for a web server | 07:17 |
| karab44 | but middle button works, because I use it to close tabs. | 07:18 |
| karab44 | and move/copy files | 07:18 |
| karab44 | but I miss this scrolling | 07:18 |
| raven | karab44 that is more a Windows thing. I cant do that on my mouse, not that i would want to really. A lot of web browsers have that integrated, but its not currently integrated into mainline OS, as it wasnt a crucial thing to have added | 07:19 |
| raven | drcasper_ Apache is THE BEST web server for LInux, so use that. As for mail servers, im not too sure, ive had some experience with PostFix etc, but they all seem a little.....clunky | 07:21 |
| drcasper_ | thank you raven .. i shall install apache | 07:22 |
| raven | drcasper_ i am finding out what i currently use on my server (my friend installed it for me) and i will let you know (in regards to mail server). | 07:22 |
| drcasper_ | :) | 07:23 |
| karab44 | raven: It's a manner of mouse drivers, not OS related. | 07:23 |
| karab44 | I did such trick years ago configuring xorg. | 07:23 |
| raven | karab44, well in that case, what mouse do you have? Because my Logitech has all these features built in that just, work. | 07:23 |
| karab44 | Logitech G5 | 07:23 |
| raven | Logitech G5 should work fine with Logitech extensions as their support is pretty good. | 07:24 |
| karab44 | wow, Have to try | 07:24 |
| raven | it really depends on the mouse, and whether or not the software you are using supports it. | 07:25 |
| raven | drcasper_ have a look at iredmail.org. Ive used it before and its pretty good | 07:25 |
| karab44 | could you point what extension is that, because software center shows a bunch of that. | 07:25 |
| drcasper_ | excelent raven | 07:26 |
| raven | drcasper_ of course :) cant recommend something that's shite :P | 07:26 |
| lessshaste | how can you control the case fan speed from ubuntu? | 07:30 |
| juenn | hai yee! anybody who can help me on configuring my webserver? | 07:30 |
| juenn | how can i edit the servername in ubuntu 12? httpd.conf is missing | 07:30 |
| chiques | Is the 64 bit version of 13.04 any less stable than the 32 bit? | 07:30 |
| karab44 | okay, nevermind. This is a small thing. | 07:30 |
| auronandace | chiques: not in my experience | 07:31 |
| chiques | auronandace, do you notice a performance difference? | 07:31 |
| karab44 | I have a bigger issue. Anybody tried to force to work any DLNA server with Sony Bravia? I tried any DLNA server on the market and it doesn't work. Where do I go wrong? | 07:31 |
| auronandace | chiques: if you got 64bit capable hardware then there really isn't much reason not to run 64bit | 07:32 |
| slick0_ | karab44, did you enable port forwarding | 07:32 |
| chiques | auronandace, ok, that's what I thought too. I guess I'm aging my self by thinking the 64 bit version will be more buggy | 07:32 |
| karab44 | slick0_: As far as I know, I don't need any port forwarding | 07:33 |
| crocket | How do I set up ibus in gnome shell in ubuntu 13.04? | 07:34 |
| crocket | Language settings aren't applied to gnome shell. | 07:34 |
| karab44 | Although I have my Home Theater plugged to different router but it's bridged to one subnet. | 07:35 |
| slick0_ | IPv6? | 07:36 |
| karab44 | no, IPv4 | 07:36 |
| slick0_ | IPv6 might work out better | 07:36 |
| karab44 | I have a client bridge between routers | 07:36 |
| slick0_ | im just guessing | 07:37 |
| karab44 | slick0_: I don't believe Sony bravia uses ipv6... hmm anyway I want to stay with v4 | 07:37 |
| slick0_ | you didnt bought an IPv6 tshirt? | 07:37 |
| karab44 | hehehe no | 07:37 |
| karab44 | who needs ipv6 | 07:38 |
| karab44 | maybe when every microwave, iron and fridge will use internet I'll start thinking about ipv6 | 07:39 |
| MonkeyDust | karab44 in the near future, ipv6 will become the standard, out of necessity, not because someone would "want" it | 07:41 |
| crocket | In gnome shell, if I enter background settings, I see http://imagebin.org/270871. It has no window manager, and it doesn't allow me to add a custom background image in the UI. | 07:42 |
| crocket | What's wrong with gnome shell? | 07:42 |
| crocket | Should I just go with unity or ubuntu gnome? | 07:42 |
| karab44 | anyway I heard that Sony's DLNA is not that liberal as others that are just simple uPnP | 07:42 |
| madsailor | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4_address_exhaustion | 07:42 |
| madsailor | karab44, ^ | 07:43 |

| karab44 | madsailor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_transition_mechanisms | 07:45 |
| karab44 | People think that IPv4 will just vanish from one day to another. | 07:48 |
| bazhang | karab44, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please | 07:49 |
| crocket | Jesus | 07:49 |
| crocket | GNOME devs are becoming weirdos. | 07:49 |
| karab44 | bazhang: tell it to your friends, that tries to explain some obvious things | 07:49 |
| crocket | GNOME devs refuse to remove background image settings that are present in other DEs. | 07:50 |
| crocket | GNOME devs insist on removing background image settings that are present in other DEs. | 07:50 |
| crocket | They don't want us to resize background images in background image settings. | 07:50 |
| karab44 | You come ask for DLNA server and you hear lecture about ip standards HAHA. | 07:50 |
| Dr_Willis | karab44: like ushare, or plex. or media-tomb. or xbmc.. or. hmmm i think theres 3 more in the repos | 07:51 |
| Dr_Willis | simpledlna, and | 07:51 |
| Dr_Willis | i cant think of any others ;) | 07:52 |
| crocket | GNOME 3 as of 3.6 is an evil. | 07:53 |
| auronandace | crocket: please stop the ranting, this is a ubuntu support channel | 07:53 |
| karab44 | Dr_Willis: I tried plex - it's nice but it doesn't work with Sony Bravia. Mediatomb, minidlna, rygel - they all fail to connect to Home Theater | 07:53 |
| Dr_Willis | karab44: thats weird. they all work great with my Samsung Smart tv and my rasperry pi | 07:54 |
| karab44 | I think they all uses simple uPnP | 07:54 |
| Dr_Willis | cant say ive noticed a complex upnp ;) | 07:54 |
| karab44 | Dr_Willis: yes, I don't say they doesn't work at all. But I can not force them to work with bravia. I read about problems with Sony. | 07:55 |
| xtriz | what is the use of openldap ? | 07:55 |
| xtriz | ldap is for maintaining credentials of users who log into your box ? | 07:56 |
| madsailor | Not quite support, but I was looking for a good place to find both sides of the argument for Wayland vs the Ubuntu/Canonical version of a re-implementation of Xserver? | 07:57 |
| Dr_Willis | !info openldap | 07:57 |
| ubot93 | Package openldap does not exist in raring | 07:57 |
| Dr_Willis | madsailor: perhaps in #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:57 |
| Dr_Willis | and the xmir wiki page | 07:57 |
| Dr_Willis | or mir wiki page. | 07:58 |
| madsailor | ok. thx Dr_Willis | 07:58 |

| xtriz | Dr_Willis, yeah i tried but still having bit hard time to understand what it does exactly. | 08:08 |
| Dr_Willis | electricprism: theres an X feature for 'panning' around a display if your desktop for example is set to 1080x1080 and your monitor is onluy able to show for example 600x800 | 08:08 |

| electricprism | Perhaps I specified the driver in my xorg.conf wrong | 08:10 |
| Dr_Willis | the xrandr tools or the monitors/display tool may be able to correct it electricprism | 08:10 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont even need an xorg.conf file on most of my machines | 08:10 |

| raven | xtre_ : Okay hmm. Did you recently do an upgrade from one OS to version to another? | 08:41 |
| xtre_ | xtre_, no i had done nothing. | 08:42 |
| raven | xtre:_ also, under your software sources, ensure that it is set to Main Server instead of "Server for <country>" | 08:42 |
| xtre_ | only delete files from cache folder as my root was full. | 08:42 |
| xtre_ | raven, i can't open ubuntu software center too ..!! | 08:43 |
| raven | xtre_: that would probably be why. Hmm . Try removing apt-show-version, and then re-install it | 08:43 |
| raven | xtre_: It's definitely an error in regards to the apt-show-version being corrupted. If not, remove the config file for it in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20apt-show-versions | 08:43 |
| raven | xtre_ : To uninstall and re-install it, run the following commands in a terminal : sudo apt-get remove apt-show-version && sudo apt-get install apt-show-version | 08:45 |

| raven | xtre_: i made a typo boo boo. Sudo apt-get install apt-show-versions | 08:48 |
| raven | with an S, not just version | 08:48 |
| raven | If you dont NEED that software, then you could just do an apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade | 08:48 |

| raven | did apt-show-versions install fine | 08:50 |

| xtre_ | raven, when i was installing apt-show-versions gave an error, so now updating with apt-get update. | 08:50 |

| xtre_ | raven, you fixed it :D | 09:35 |
| xtre_ | i was just following your instructions | 09:35 |
| raven | xtre_ the way that i do things is as follows: 1. Is it required for normal use of the OS?, No? THEN WIPE THAT SHIZZ OUT | 09:36 |

| mamed | ah i did i think | 09:39 |
| mamed | my problem wasdesktop icons and they came | 09:39 |
| raven | xtre_: first think i do if i get package errors is run: sudo apt-get install -f && sudo apt-get autoremove. Sometimes there are conflicting, or missing packages. | 09:40 |
| bekks | Running sudo apt-get autoremove when having install problems is a bad idea. | 09:40 |

| raven | bekks : explain? I never have an issue when doing it? | 09:41 |
| bekks | raven: When deps where installed because the failing package needs them, autoremove will uninstall the needed deps again. So the next install run will have to install them again. | 09:43 |
| xtre_ | prob solved removed man-db and now no errors. | 09:43 |
| bekks | raven: And thats just not necessary. | 09:43 |
| bekks | xtre_: You did not solve the problem ;) | 09:43 |
| xtre_ | bekks, still what i have to do ? | 09:43 |
| raven | bekks : oh yes, i understand. What i meant was, once you install software, if there are packages it no longer needs, use autoremove. | 09:43 |
| bekks | xtre_: You just uninstalled some software showing an artefact. | 09:43 |
| bekks | xtre_: Now, since you uninstalled it, we cant tell you anymore. | 09:44 |
| xtre_ | installing back again | 09:44 |
| bekks | xtre_: Its to late now. | 09:45 |

| xtre_ | bekks, sorry for that. | 09:46 |

| Walex | lepine: the answer is "backups" :-) | 10:36 |
| raven | Please see the very last post | 10:36 |
| lepine | Eg, I'm rsync'ing all of /home/.ecryptfs off the drive. I seem to have the login-wrapped passphrase intact | 10:36 |
| raven | lepine, what exactly is the problem? | 10:36 |
| raven | lrdArc what kernel are you running? | 10:37 |
| lepine | Well, from what I see, and what I read, it seems that it just encrypts the files and stores the cyphertext transparently on the underlying, say, ext4 partition | 10:37 |
| LrdArc | it's 3.8.0-27-generic | 10:37 |

| lepine | every file in .ecryptfs/user/... with a weird name (encrypted) corresponds to one file | 10:38 |

| lepine | raven: Can you confirm my suspiscion? Provided I have the passphrase(s), if rsync manages to copy it off my drive, the file is salvageable ... | 10:53 |
| jrib | first step is to see if you can play it... | 10:53 |
| raven | lepine :Yes, in a sense | 10:54 |
| loin | jrib, is this the whole drm thing everyone's talking about? | 10:54 |
| raven | you COULD get the files back if you could de-crypt each one with a passphrase | 10:54 |
| raven | maybe set up a script to go through and do it all, depending on the size of the files | 10:54 |
| jrib | loin: this is one instance of drm I suppose; I don't know if anyone still talks about it | 10:54 |

| slick0_ | you just need to make an image of the Bray | 10:56 |

| euryale | Do i need to install nVidia drivers for ubuntu? | 11:21 |
| euryale | My current graphics driver is Gallium 0.4 on NVE7. | 11:21 |
| sam_h | essentially, it creates a directory to build the VM in, but fails when it tries to chroot into it | 11:21 |

| sam_h | blazemore - I'll rerun to get you a full log (will take 5 min). In the mean time, it's falling over when it runs this: | 11:23 |

| linuxthefish | it's down for me... | 11:27 |
| sam_h | euryale: Gallium 0.4 essentially means you are using the opensource stack for nvidia. Nvidia do a proprietary closed source driver, which has some extra features but is considered less stable | 11:27 |
| MonkeyDust | linuxthefish yes, redirected | 11:27 |

| belljar | honestly: the disk utility says there is 1 bad sector. is it too bad to recover just by straight copying the files from harddrive via live usb? without any tool? | 13:12 |
| cfhowlett | lapt0p, right. now plug in your wifi dongle and see if it detects | 13:12 |
| slick0_ | i usually make a partition on the badblocked area and donr format it so the system never uses that area | 13:12 |
| honestly | belljar: you can do that | 13:12 |
| lapt0p | So there are no Wi-Fi networks listed, and both, the built-in Wi-Fi card, and the USB Wi-FI card are grey-ed out, like they are not active. | 13:13 |
| honestly | daftykins: please tell me more about bad blocks on SSDs and how they're not completely hidden by the SSD firmware | 13:13 |
| cfhowlett | mernilio, ??? so the rules here don't apply to you? illogical | 13:13 |
| slick0_ | im talking about HDDs | 13:13 |
| daftykins | honestly: sure. my intel X25-M G2 developed a bad sector which tripped up the entire OS until i secure erased the drive. | 13:13 |
| cfhowlett | lapt0p, hardware switch effects only the builtin wifi. sounds like your card may not be read. do you know the chipset? | 13:14 |
| honestly | 15:09:05 < slick0_> its an SSD | 13:14 |

| Achi||es | hi | 13:20 |
| Hodapp | honestly: I'd venture that 'bad blocks' are just as present on SSDs but, below some threshold, and in the same behavior as a spinning disk, they are basically hidden from you. | 13:20 |
| Achi||es | Ubuntu 12.04 LTS OR 13.04 ? | 13:21 |
| Achi||es | which one is stable and which one should i use ? | 13:21 |
| belljar | honestly: could such things happen due to an external attack? | 13:21 |
| bjoswald | Achi||es, 12.04 is the most stable. | 13:21 |
| Hodapp | honestly: Now, what the behavior is when you have surpassed that threshold, I don't know - but SSDs definitely fail, and at that point the exact way they break the abstraction isn't really relevant - the bad blocks have been made apparent. | 13:21 |
| cfhowlett | Achi||es, 5 years support for LTS ... | 13:21 |
| Achi||es | is it possible to make it Gnome look ? | 13:21 |
| honestly | belljar: not likely | 13:22 |
| daftykins | Achi||es: they're both stable, but 13.04 ends support in January, so stick to the LTS release for it to last longer. it means long term support after all | 13:22 |
| belljar | honestly; but possible? | 13:22 |
| Achi||es | why UNITY ? whyyy :/ | 13:22 |
| crocket | How do I turn off compositing in unity? | 13:22 |
| daftykins | you guys conversation is off topic | 13:22 |
| the_roots | has anyone tryed to install ub desktop to a phone/ | 13:22 |
| Achi||es | it really sucks | 13:22 |
| cfhowlett | Achi||es, logout. choose an alternate desktop environment. login. done. | 13:23 |
| slick0_ | a fend of mine tells m ubunt is a confessinal disto | 13:23 |
| honestly | belljar: sure, in theory someone could hack into your computer, hack into the fs driver, and get the hard drive's firmware to mark bogus bad sectors | 13:23 |
| jrib | slick0_: how is this related to ubuntu support? | 13:23 |
| cfhowlett | !ot|slick0_, | 13:23 |
| ubottu | slick0_,: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 13:23 |
| Achi||es | cfhowlett , there s no gnome anymore | 13:23 |
| krux | install it ?. | 13:24 |
| cfhowlett | Achi||es, things change. try xubuntu/lubuntu/kubuntu ... | 13:24 |
| Achi||es | they dont support gnome anymore | 13:24 |
| slick0_ | here gnomeuntu | 13:24 |
| Achi||es | ubuntu is best | 13:24 |
| honestly | belljar: but that is extremely unlikely, I'd say | 13:24 |
| belljar | honestly: a new smart test gave 2 bad sectors. when in disk utility only 1 was shown before. if not bogus, then hard disc is dying? | 13:24 |
| the_roots | i loke unity a little better. my mom uses it | 13:24 |
| the_roots | more user friendly | 13:25 |
| Achi||es | the_roots do u use on touch screen ? | 13:25 |
| the_roots | na i do not | 13:25 |
| Achi||es | hmmmm | 13:25 |
| the_roots | make a big difference/ | 13:25 |
| mateus | . | 13:25 |
| honestly | belljar: hard drives have "spare sectors". when sectors die, they are marked as bad and a spare sector is used instead. when the bad sectors show up in SMART, I think that means the spare sectors have been exhausted and you shouldn't rely on your hard drive to work anymore. | 13:26 |
| Achi||es | how old are u the_roots ? | 13:26 |
| the_roots | 29 | 13:26 |
| honestly | I haven't thought about this in quite some time, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong | 13:26 |
| lapt0p | I've checked the BIOS Wi-Fi card disable option, but there is not an option to do that. Other ideas, how could i disable the Wi-Fi internal adapter via the Terminal? | 13:27 |
| belljar | honestly: when I simply use live usb to copy hard drive to another disk, is it from your experience likely that some data will be already lost (given 2 bad sectors)? | 13:27 |
| Achi||es | ok another question is coming | 13:27 |
| Achi||es | is it possible to install ubuntu on Windows 8 ? | 13:28 |
| lapt0p | Yeah, why not, lol | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | Achi||es, via wubi, yes | 13:28 |
| Achi||es | i heard there s no wubi for windows 8 | 13:28 |
| honestly | belljar: yes, and normal copying utilities will fail to copy files that intersect that bad sectors | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | Achi||es, misinformation | 13:29 |
| the_roots | cant u just do ifconfig wlan0 up or down | 13:29 |
| cfhowlett | @who | 13:30 |
| Achi||es | cfhowlett , so can u inform me about it ? | 13:30 |
| belljar | honestly: is there any tool to copy "all" files? or is ddrescue the only tool to do that (else, would testdisk also succeed in doing that?) | 13:30 |

| airtonix | ? | 13:32 |
| lapt0p | :airtonix i was kidding | 13:32 |
| airtonix | wubi isn't unsupported because of anything microsoft did. While it may be nice to believe that, the reality is that Wubi was terribad to begin with. | 13:33 |

| AlanBell | antar: ah, looks like friends was introduced in Raring (13.04) | 14:14 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | ikonia, jrib: www.ubuntu.com has no HTTPS support, so checking hashes is rather useless if you can't verify their authenticity | 14:14 |
| Andre_designer | how can i set volume controle from my keyboard in smaller steps in ubuntu?? | 14:14 |
| jrib | Eduard_Munteanu: see the wiki page you just referred to | 14:14 |
| AlanBell | belgianguy: they are called "menus" and the ones on the right are "indicators" | 14:14 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | jrib: I know, but shouldn't ubuntu.com provide them officially? | 14:15 |

| karab44 | hello | 14:15 |
| karab44 | Can I explore windows filesystem on ubuntu 13.04 by default? | 14:15 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | I was curious if this has been reported before and what Canonical's answer was. | 14:15 |
| jrib | Eduard_Munteanu: well the gpg sig is made available on the releases page | 14:15 |
| blob4000 | hi all! i'm having an issue in Unity where anytime I go to save or open something from my Home folder, the save/open window shows all of my .hidden files in my ~ directory. i don't remember turning this on, but would love to know how to reverse it. thanks! | 14:16 |
| TommyB | hey guys, can anyone think of a particular reason why a hdd would be showing up under "OS" in home folder but won't show up when i want to install? | 14:16 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | jrib: yeah, but you still need to verify the key's fingerprint | 14:16 |
| jrib | Eduard_Munteanu: you need to establish a web of trust for the gpg key, sure | 14:16 |
| TommyB | windows installer can't detect the hdd, nor can ubuntu installer | 14:16 |
| TommyB | but when booting off the CD i can access all of the files | 14:16 |
| Andre_designer | anyone?? | 14:16 |
| ikonia | TommyB: unsupported raid controller ? | 14:16 |
| ikonia | TommyB: (random guess with no info) | 14:17 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | jrib: most users can't do that, making https a better-than-nothing option for bootstrapping that web of trust | 14:17 |
| TommyB | ikonia: well i do have a hdd/ssd combo where the ssd caches for it... you think that's the reason? | 14:17 |
| jrib | Eduard_Munteanu: i don't know what the official stance is. All I know is that the md5sums are on the wiki served over https if you want to trust your CA and the hashes on the releases website are signed with gpg | 14:17 |
| BluesKaj | TommyB, is the hdd formatted to any FS ? | 14:17 |
| AlanBell | Andre_designer: I have 17 steps from zero to full, is that what you have? | 14:17 |
| TommyB | BluesKaj: NTFS | 14:17 |
| bwayne | Andre_designer: you could try binding a keyboard shortcut to 'amixer -c 0 set Master 2dB+' or something similar. haven't tried that in ubuntu, though. | 14:17 |
| ikonia | TommyB: depends how thats setup, but possible, sure | 14:17 |
| TommyB | it has a windows install on it that stopped booting | 14:17 |
| TommyB | ikonia: i don't THINK that's it because i even tried loading the drivers directly from the resources CD for the windows install | 14:18 |
| TommyB | still couldn't recognize it | 14:18 |
| Andre_designer | try that but doesn't work | 14:18 |
| TommyB | this is pretty brutal, i REALLY don't want to have to send this in -_- | 14:18 |
| Andre_designer | but will try again | 14:18 |
| blob4000 | I solved the problem by pressing Ctrl + H, FYI: This was my original question "i'm having an issue in Unity where anytime I go to save or open something from my Home folder, the save/open window shows all of my .hidden files in my ~ directory. i don't remember turning this on, but would love to know how to reverse it. thanks!" | 14:18 |
| BluesKaj | TommyB, what about a live media partitoner like gparted ? | 14:19 |
| TommyB | good call, can't believe i didn't try that | 14:19 |
| lapt0p | What kind of activities am i allowed to do, to contribute to the Ubuntu/Linux community? :D | 14:19 |
| AlanBell | Eduard_Munteanu: I don't think https would make a huge amount of difference, it would guard against a man in the middle attack, but wouldn't do anything to prevent someone compromising the box and putting in a different sum, but the GPG key would prevent that | 14:19 |
| TommyB | BluesKaj: i'll try reformatting with gparted and get back to you | 14:19 |
| lapt0p | What kind of activities am i allowed to do(*as a beginner), to contribute to the Ubuntu/Linux community? :D | 14:19 |
| BluesKaj | TommyB, well have a look at least | 14:19 |
| jrib | Eduard_Munteanu: I think I looked once for related bugs and found one related to the fact the md5sums page was editable by everyone. So if you find that, you can check for related bugs and maybe file one asking about the rationale | 14:19 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | AlanBell: obviously the checksums should be hosted by a trusted Canonical machine. | 14:20 |
| ikonia | lapt0p: anything you are capable of | 14:20 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | Oh, hm. | 14:20 |
| ikonia | lapt0p: sky is the limit | 14:20 |
| === root____6 is now known as terre_de_ciel | ||
| TommyB | BluesKaj: gparted detected it, had an exclamation point by the OS partition so obviously something was up | 14:20 |
| lapt0p | :ikonia Some examples, please? I am still kind of new .. | 14:20 |
| TommyB | deleted the partitions, going to try to reformat now and see if that allows an install | 14:20 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | AlanBell: yes, it prevents MITMs, but that's the main reason for SSL/TLS. I only need to trust the CA plus Canonical. | 14:21 |
| AlanBell | Eduard_Munteanu: sure, but I think the GPG key is the thing that guards against the more realistic threat, as well as the esoteric one | 14:21 |
| BluesKaj | TommyB, ok , looks like there was a problem | 14:21 |
| ikonia | lapt0p: anything from updating documentation, helping other people, translations, through to fixing bugs and writing new software, anything you are capable of doing | 14:21 |
| jrib | Eduard_Munteanu: not the bug i was referring to, but here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website/+bug/245953 . Looks like checking ubuntu-website bugs for https or hashes or md5sums might help. And if nothing there addresses your concerns you can always file a new one | 14:21 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 245953 in Ubuntu Website "Publish hashes stronger than MD5 for isos: sha-256 and whirlpool, " [Wishlist,Fix released] | 14:21 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | AlanBell: yeah, I don't like the CA system either, but for many users it's the only option to trust-on-first-use the CAs and bootstrap their web of trust. | 14:22 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | jrib: oh, thanks, so there is a bug tracker for www.ubuntu.com | 14:22 |

| TommyB | BluesKaj: but even after that, deleted the partitions and created a 100GB ext4 partition which shows as /dev/sda1 or whatever | 14:23 |

| AlanBell | yes, it is a reasonable feature request, however they wouldn't want to serve up isos over https, and there are logistical advantages to serving the hashes and isos together, but do go read the bug and file another if appropriate | 14:23 |

| TommyB | wtf. | 14:24 |
| Andre_designer | okay i try that!! | 14:24 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | AlanBell: yeah, serving ISOs won't help much because using 3rd party mirrors is an advantage for users too. They should only serve checksums and/or GPG keys or their fingerprints at the very least. | 14:24 |
| BluesKaj | TommyB, still have problem after format to ext ? | 14:25 |
| TommyB | BluesKaj: it still won't show in the installer | 14:25 |

| mdghbrhn | if I want to learn how to manage my VPS using ubuntu where to begin ? | 15:09 |
| Ari-Yang | mdghbrhn, I'm not quite sure, but you could start by googling yourself guides for managing VPS on ubuntu | 15:10 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Install a virtual machine with ubuntu, and start. | 15:10 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: get a vps with ubuntu? Read help.ubuntu.com server guide? | 15:10 |
| bekks | !beginner | mdghbrhn | 15:11 |
| bekks | hmm. | 15:11 |
| mdghbrhn | actually I tried many tutorials and each time I screw the vps for a reason, which I do not know | 15:12 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: depending on how adventurous you are, you may want to use a vm to experiment first as bekks suggests | 15:12 |
| mdghbrhn | I've a cheap vps for 5 usd per month to learn ot it | 15:12 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: i didn't say to read many tutorials, stick to official documentation (first ubuntu's then cross-reference with the project's). If they disagree, ask for help. | 15:12 |
| mdghbrhn | and have another VPS for the real website | 15:12 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: save 5 bucks and use a vm for learning | 15:13 |
| mdghbrhn | jrib: honestly I know very few about linux and I want to learn but I will only use it for the vps but confused about what to learn | 15:13 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: what do you want to do? | 15:14 |
| mdghbrhn | jrib: I really want to learn and I do not have any special preferences for the distribution because all are the same for me | 15:14 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: learn to do *what*? | 15:14 |
| mdghbrhn | jrib: I want to setup the vps , secure the ssh, secure access the ssh, setup lemp, add my websites | 15:15 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: what does "setup the vps" mean? | 15:15 |
| mdghbrhn | jrib: I do not know if using a back end control panel is any good or I should do everything using cli | 15:15 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Do you setup the vps? Or do you just get the vps? | 15:16 |
| mdghbrhn | jrib: I mean I click deploy the linux distribution like ubuntu or what ever, then access it usnig ssh client | 15:16 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Do you want tp provision vps to others? | 15:16 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: yeah, if you're buying a vps, I'm not sure what else you would do. | 15:17 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: no it is just a one click image distribution deployment | 15:17 |
| pseudonymous | Does anyone use AppArmor for nginx ? Does anyone use AppArmor at all ? | 15:17 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Then you cant deploy your vps with "clicking in the panel". | 15:17 |
| jrib | pseudonymous: :) | 15:17 |
| pseudonymous | I'm unable to find an nginx profile for apparmor, and I'm apparently unable to write it myself short of "capability dac_override" which reads as a blanket "do whatever the hell you want with my files" - rendering the entire idea moot | 15:18 |
| jrib | !apparmor | 15:19 |

| belljar | hello again! there are 2 bad sectors on my PC's hard drive as we just talked about. could following problems be related to this; 1. screen often greying (temporary freeze) when only 2-3 programs are open. 2. programs don't close just on clicking "X" (close) symbol on the top left of the window, instead takes longer or often follows "force quit" window. | 15:20 |
| bekks | belljar: Yes, maybe. | 15:20 |
| pseudonymous | jrib: yea, I've been there already though :) Which reminds me there's a bug - somehow apparmor-profiles installs a bunch of profile files, removing the package does not remove the profiles again.. Grrr what a load of cap | 15:20 |
| pseudonymous | crap* | 15:20 |
| gabeapp | hi | 15:21 |
| jrib | pseudonymous: that's probably not a bug. Do « dpkg -S /path/to/a/file/you/think/should/be/removed » | 15:21 |
| gabeapp | i have an issue, can anyone help me out? | 15:21 |
| MonkeyDust | gabeapp start with a question | 15:21 |
| bekks | gabeapp: How can we know, without you telling us the details? | 15:21 |
| jrib | gabeapp: our resident telepath is out, so you'll have to tell us your issue :) | 15:21 |
| pseudonymous | jrib: it was listed when I did "dpkg -L apparmor-profiles" though | 15:21 |
| gabeapp | okok | 15:21 |
| jrib | pseudonymous: if it's a configuration file, then you'd have to purge the package | 15:22 |
| belljar | bekks, thank you for your reply. these things began happening recently, earlier it would take really many windows to be open for this to happen, which was expectable for a machine with an earlier generation of processors. | 15:22 |
| gabeapp | i just installed ubuntu on my ssd but it always hangs when i stop doing something, but when i have a terminal window open i get an I/O error | 15:23 |
| gabeapp | like every command i get an I/O error | 15:23 |
| bekks | gabeapp: Then get a new harddisk. | 15:23 |
| KitchenerJam | Is there a channel for ubuntuGlobalJam participants? | 15:23 |
| gabeapp | even if it is just a random bubnch of letters | 15:23 |
| gabeapp | and the ssd is only like 2 weeks old | 15:23 |
| BongoX | did you format th disk? which filesystem did you choose? | 15:23 |
| gabeapp | ext4 | 15:23 |
| pseudonymous | Hmm, I guess I can chalk AppArmor up to being a cutesy little idea that's apparently not meant to be used. There's a curious lack of profile examples online, Ubuntu doesn't ship one for nginx, only about the most popular web server software for high-traffic sites. :( Oh well. | 15:24 |
| BongoX | journaling file systems stress SSDs... better use ext2 | 15:24 |
| bekks | gabeapp: Pastebin "dmesg" please. | 15:24 |
| bekks | BongoX: Thats total FUD. | 15:24 |
| bekks | BongoX: Sorry for the clear words. | 15:24 |
| mdghbrhn | jiriki: http://i.imgur.com/cyaUstz.png | 15:24 |
| bekks | BongoX: Do you know what a journal actually is for? | 15:24 |
| BongoX | i do | 15:25 |
| jrib | pseudonymous: you've tried generating your own profile? | 15:25 |
| BongoX | bekks: so what can he do about his brand-new, broken disk? | 15:26 |
| jrib | pseudonymous: there's apparently a #apparmor on irc.oftc.net you can try | 15:26 |
| bekks | BongoX: Return it and get a new one. | 15:26 |
| BongoX | k | 15:26 |
| gabeapp | ok pastebin.com/Vm4SRPcq | 15:26 |
| bekks | gabeapp: There is no sign of your disk being broken. Boot a live cd and run fsck -f on all filesystems. | 15:27 |
| pseudonymous | jrib: yea I have, but nginx doesn't launch a full server unless you specify a config file etc - so aa-logprof / aa-genprof just holds your hand in building a profile for launching nginx to check its syntax… And it's suggesting 'capability dac_override' - which, reading "man 7 capabilities" entails giving the app full access to disregard access permissions -- which defeats the idea of sandboxing to begin with | 15:28 |
| jrib | pseudonymous: i see | 15:28 |
| LeafMan | I have some graphic glitches with NVidia drivers on my Windows 8 system, does anyone know that behavior? the screen goes blac sometimes | 15:29 |
| Wiz-KeeD | Guys, i've check the installed packages and it seems to show me these are installed: http://pastie.org/8325611 | 15:29 |
| Wiz-KeeD | Should both be there? | 15:29 |
| bekks | LeafMan: This isnt windows support :) | 15:29 |
| gabeapp | i know the disk isnt broken, like i will watch a youtube video then if i dont have another video to watch after the system will hang | 15:29 |
| LeafMan | bekks: ,,|,, | 15:29 |
| Rory | LeafMan, /join ##windows | 15:29 |
| Wiz-KeeD | idk what rc and ii mean at the beginnign | 15:29 |
| bekks | gabeapp: How do you know it? | 15:29 |
| LeafMan | Rory: ,,|,, | 15:29 |
| bekks | gabeapp: How did you check your disk? | 15:29 |
| Rory | LeafMan, is that supposed to be what I think it is? | 15:29 |
| LeafMan | Rory: ? | 15:30 |
| LeafMan | It is ASCII art | 15:30 |
| Rory | And what does it represent? | 15:30 |
| LeafMan | and means: oh sorry, I didn't notice I am in the wrong channel | 15:30 |
| Rory | Good that's what I thought it meant | 15:30 |
| bekks | LeafMan: Do you have an ubuntu support question, or do you just troll? | 15:30 |
| LeafMan | ah yes, and go fuck yourself | 15:30 |
| gabeapp | because when i switched to a terminal window it gave me an I/O error, the terminal window was already open | 15:30 |
| gabeapp | like when i type a random bunch of letters it said i?O error | 15:31 |
| bekks | gabeapp: Did you check your harddisk for errors? | 15:31 |
| BongoX | holy cow | 15:31 |
| bekks | gabeapp: If not, then you dont know wether it is broken or not. | 15:31 |
| gabeapp | THE DRIVE ISNT BROKEN | 15:31 |
| gabeapp | caps** | 15:32 |
| bekks | DONT SHOUT AT US. | 15:32 |
| gabeapp | i didnt mean to | 15:32 |
| gabeapp | i hit the caps lock by accident | 15:32 |
| bekks | gabeapp: If you know better, good luck. I already told you what to do. | 15:32 |
| gabeapp | i never said i know better, thats why i am here | 15:33 |
| BongoX | no... i won't tell sth. about streaming video, swappiness and noatime... | 15:33 |
| bekks | gabeapp: However, you've been told what to do, and you dont answer simple yes/no questions. Good luck. | 15:34 |
| mdghbrhn | I want to setup the vps following this tutorial here: => http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-12.04-lts-nginx-bind-dovecot-ispconfig-3 | 15:34 |
| mdghbrhn | or you could suggest a better back end control panel | 15:34 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: you're ignoring my advice :/ | 15:34 |
| gabeapp | i am booting the live cd to check the disk | 15:35 |
| Wiz-KeeD | Hey guys, I have the Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01) network card on my laptop and firmware-b43-lpphy-installer driver installed | 15:35 |
| mdghbrhn | jrib: it seems that I lost some lines to read, please may you copy it once again :) | 15:35 |
| Wiz-KeeD | The wireless seems to work okay but it does not detect my networks automatically on startup, can someone suggest a fix/alternative to this problem/driver? | 15:35 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: i didn't say to read many tutorials, stick to official documentation (first ubuntu's then cross-reference with the project's). If they disagree, ask for help. | 15:36 |
| gabeapp | could it be a problem becuase i am dual booting? | 15:36 |
| bekks | gabeapp: No. | 15:36 |
| gabeapp | ok good | 15:36 |
| gabeapp | thanks | 15:36 |
| BongoX | no. | 15:36 |
| piggazoid | i have some sound issues with skype and steam, only one wants to output sound at a time, anybody know how to make this work? | 15:36 |
| mdghbrhn | jrib: you mean this one here: = https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/index.html | 15:37 |
| zimbo | is it possoible to have a separate password for imap and smtp using thunderbird on ubuntu? my email account has a separate password for each, so i can't send mail, need to know where the setting is? it isn't easy to find | 15:37 |
| Rory | Wiz-KeeD, Can you please find the name of your wireless device by running the command "iwconfig" - it will be similar to wlan0 | 15:37 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: sure. Or the guides at help.ubuntu.com/community and the guides on whatever software you are trying configure's official website. | 15:37 |
| Wiz-KeeD | Sure Rory, that would be: http://pastie.org/8325632 | 15:38 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: i am not surprised that you end up with a broken system after you try to follow this guide at howtoforge | 15:38 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: you said you wanted to setup ssh securely. See ubottu's page on ssh: | 15:39 |
| jrib | !ssh | mdghbrhn | 15:39 |
| ubottu | mdghbrhn: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 15:39 |
| Rory | Wiz-KeeD, Please use the command: "gksu gedit /etc/pm/power.d/wireless" this will open a blank text editor | 15:39 |
| jrib | mdghbrhn: you said you wanted to setup lamp. After you're done reading about ssh, see ubottu's page on lamp: | 15:39 |
| jrib | !lamp | mdghbrhn | 15:39 |
| ubottu | mdghbrhn: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 15:39 |
| Wiz-KeeD | What is that for Rory? | 15:39 |
| mdghbrhn | jiriki: but if I will use it only for the vps do I need to know all these info about hardware ...etc | 15:39 |
| zimbo | is it possoible to have a separate password for imap and smtp using thunderbird on ubuntu? my email account has a separate password for each, so i can't send mail, need to know where the setting is? it isn't easy to find | 15:39 |
| zimbo | is it possoible to have a separate password for imap and smtp using thunderbird on ubuntu? my email account has a separate password for each, so i can't send mail, need to know where the setting is? it isn't easy to find | 15:39 |

| FloodBot1 | zimbo: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:39 |
| Rory | Wiz-KeeD, Then put this into it http://paste.ubuntu.com/6106638/ | 15:39 |
| bekks | zimbo: ignore set. | 15:39 |
| Wiz-KeeD | Rory, will you attempt to manually conduct a search when the wireless card boots? | 15:40 |
| === eme is now known as rpsyj | ||
| Rory | Wiz-KeeD, I want to try disabling your Wireless power-save mode | 15:40 |
| zimbo | oops sorry that was unintentional | 15:40 |
| Wiz-KeeD | Can't I do that manually from the console or... | 15:40 |
| Wiz-KeeD | You think that's the issue that is not scanning the cards? | 15:40 |
| Rory | Yes you can, run that sbin command once | 15:40 |
| Wiz-KeeD | ikonia, any thoughts? | 15:40 |
| Rory | It's possible Wiz-KeeD I want to rule it out | 15:40 |
| === Wiz-KeeD is now known as Wiz_KeeD | ||
| mdghbrhn | jrib: I read that nginx is light then apache ... is this right or wrong ? | 15:41 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Depends on the configuration. | 15:41 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: you mean webserver configurations? | 15:42 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Correct. | 15:42 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ok Rory i'll try that though I am a bit scheptical | 15:42 |
| Wiz_KeeD | :-s | 15:42 |
| Rory | So am I, but I want to rule it out. | 15:42 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: I will add 3 or 4 websites to the vps , will use drupal, wordpress, and phpbb | 15:42 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Which doesnt tell us a single detail about the configuration. | 15:43 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: jrib honestly I feel lost with all these info and all these details :( | 15:43 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Rory, ok added it, now what | 15:44 |
| Wiz_KeeD | reboot? | 15:44 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Unless you do know what you are doing, you should start with the very well documented apache webserver. | 15:45 |
| Rory | Wiz_KeeD, Yes | 15:45 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: I want to use nginx | 15:45 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, nginx is pretty good | 15:46 |
| gabeapp | BongoX: whats the command to check the disk? | 15:46 |
| mdghbrhn | EdwardSnowden: what I read is that it is very light compared to apache, honestly I do not know for real the differences but this is what I got from goggling stuffs :( | 15:47 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, It's much lighter than apache from my experience. Many people switch from apache to nginx because of that | 15:47 |
| zimbo | is it possoible to have a separate password for imap and smtp using thunderbird on ubuntu? my email account has a separate password for each, so i can't send mail, need to know where the setting is? it isn't easy to find | 15:47 |
| Wiz_KeeD | EdwardSnowden, still working on the wireless to get it fixed properly, any advice on working wireless that does not detect the networks but otherwise seems to work fine? | 15:48 |
| mdghbrhn | EdwardSnowden: this is what I read too and this is the reason I want to use it | 15:48 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | AlanBell, jrib, ikonia: I filed a bug after all: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website/+bug/1225442 | 15:48 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1225442 in Ubuntu Website "Checksums/keys should be hosted officially and on HTTPS" [Undecided,New] | 15:48 |
| EdwardSnowden | Wiz_KeeD, What you haven't fixed it yet? | 15:48 |
| mdghbrhn | does there is a guide for what to do 1st and then 2nd ...etc | 15:48 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, Use it then | 15:48 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Not fully EdwardSnowden, luck is not my best friend apparently | 15:49 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Do you want to use nginx because you know why or do you just think its more cool? :) | 15:49 |
| BongoX | gabeapp: use the Disk Utility under System / Administratioin | 15:49 |
| mdghbrhn | EdwardSnowden: and what about back end control panel ? | 15:49 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: If you dont even know how to configure details of a webserver, stick with apache. | 15:49 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: honestly I do not know but this is what I read | 15:49 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Then use apache. | 15:49 |
| EdwardSnowden | Wiz_KeeD, If you boot with a livecd without ethernet plugged in, do you get wifi? | 15:50 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: what about using backend control panel ? | 15:50 |
| Wiz_KeeD | EdwardSnowden, I don't know that, I don't have the livecd with me :( | 15:51 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, nginx doesn't have guis I think, you have to edit config files manually | 15:51 |
| EdwardSnowden | Wiz_KeeD, Do you have a usb stick? | 15:51 |
| oppositescopez | well isnt this place dead o.o | 15:52 |
| Wiz_KeeD | EdwardSnowden, I sold it since it was utter crap, I could not get it to be bootable, could not even format it to ntfs, it was horrid | 15:52 |
| Wiz_KeeD | :) | 15:52 |
| EdwardSnowden | Wiz_KeeD, Well too bad | 15:54 |
| Wiz_KeeD | indeed it is EdwardSnowden | 15:55 |
| EdwardSnowden | Wiz_KeeD, Your card isn't working at all? | 15:55 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: What backend control panel? | 15:55 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: so if I want to use back end control panel? to make things easy for me | 15:55 |
| mdghbrhn | the one mentioned here http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-12.04-lts-nginx-bind-dovecot-ispconfig-3-p3 | 15:55 |
| Wiz_KeeD | EdwardSnowden, it is working, I can connect using Network->Wireless->Connect to Others networks and typing in the network data there | 15:55 |
| Wiz_KeeD | And then it shows up all networks and all seems fine | 15:55 |
| karab44 | I want to share Printer for windows users. I am on ubuntu 13.04. Is this easy task or hard? | 15:55 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Been on it for an hour and looks great, but when I boot I do not see the networks come up | 15:55 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: I dont see a panel mentioned there. | 15:56 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, ISPconfig isn't very useful. You'd be better off creating config files yourself. Just read the nginx documentation | 15:56 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: If you want to learn how to configure a webserver, do it on the CLI. | 15:56 |
| EdwardSnowden | Wiz_KeeD, So, it's not working right now? | 15:56 |
| Wiz_KeeD | EdwardSnowden, it's working without a problem once I connect to a network, but in order to connect to it i must do it manually, it does not scan and show available networks at system boot, only after I conect manually | 15:57 |
| EdwardSnowden | Wiz_KeeD, The service probably doesn't get started at boot | 15:57 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Or a bug that doesn't broadcast at startup to search them EdwardSnowden, who knows | 15:58 |
| oppositescopez | does anyone know the most recent version of opengl for c++ .? | 15:58 |
| Wiz_KeeD | http://askubuntu.com/questions/172698/how-do-i-install-sublime-text-2 Is it ok if i use this repo to install sublime text editor? | 15:58 |
| karab44 | EdwardSnowden: so here are you hidding! ;D | 15:58 |
| BongoX | lol | 15:58 |
| gabeapp | BongoX: it finally booted and it says the disk is ok | 15:58 |
| EdwardSnowden | karab44, No I'm just bored because I quit my job at NSA | 15:58 |
| BongoX | gabeapp: still these funky IO-errors on the console? | 15:59 |
| gabeapp | no, because i booted from the live cd | 15:59 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: EdwardSnowden so all I need to do is the web server configurations ? | 15:59 |
| BongoX | well... ok | 15:59 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: No. You need to configure your server to run a webserver, and you need to secure your webserver. | 15:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | can anyone please confirm? | 15:59 |
| mdghbrhn | I was thinking about using cpanel and give myself a break lol | 15:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-2 ? I think it's safe right? | 16:00 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: does there is a guide for this ? | 16:00 |
| bekks | Wiz_KeeD: We dont know if it is safe, but the syntax is correct. | 16:00 |
| piggazoid | can ubuntu output sound from two source at the same time e.g game and skype? | 16:00 |
| BongoX | bekks: gabeapp checked his disk after booting from life cd and it's supposed to be ok.. any idea? | 16:01 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: may I IMing you ? | 16:01 |
| tito_ | what is the best way to backup my whole ubuntu drive to a usb hard drive? just some "cp -ar / /media/drive " or is there something better? | 16:01 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP | 16:01 |
| MonkeyDust | tito_ rsync is nice, it's similar to cp, but with more options | 16:01 |
| bekks | BongoX: How did he check his disk? | 16:02 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, There a full guide here http://vpsbible.com/ but you have to pay $15 to access | 16:02 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, You can find this information by googling around and reading nginx documentation | 16:02 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, And the ubuntu server guide | 16:02 |
| BongoX | bekks... gui... system/administration... | 16:02 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Do not use external guides, use the official documentation. | 16:02 |
| Hodapp | tito_: if you do use cp -ar / /media/drive - be aware that it might get stuck in a loop since /media/drive is part of /, and it'll eventually copy /media/drive to /media/drive/media/drive | 16:02 |
| tito_ | MonkeyDust: I just want to copy everything, no compression or anything, just a simple copy, because the backup drive is way bigger than my hard drive | 16:02 |
| bekks | BongoX: ROFLMAO. I told him how to check his filesystems using the live cd. The disk itself can be checked using smartcl and badblocks. | 16:03 |
| MonkeyDust | tito_ read this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync | 16:03 |
| tito_ | Hodapp: so the question then is, how do I backup my whole ubuntu drive to a usb hard drive? | 16:03 |
| NEOhidra | i would like to restrict a user just to one folder how can i do that? i need to create a user for one purpose - upload backups, but would like to denie him access to any other folder. How can i do it? | 16:03 |
| Hodapp | tito_: whether rsync or cp, make sure you use options to not cross filesystems. | 16:03 |
| bekks | !backup | tito_ | 16:03 |
| ubottu | tito_: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 16:03 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: you mean this one ? | 16:03 |
| mdghbrhn | http://nginx.org/en/docs/ | 16:03 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: I gave you the link. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP | 16:03 |
| karab44 | okay, guys. I need to know do I have to install samba server if I want to share my printer with Windows users or maybe ubuntu implements other/newer solutions? | 16:03 |
| NEOhidra | uuploading via SCP i mean | 16:04 |
| bekks | !samba | karab44 | 16:04 |
| ubottu | karab44: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 16:04 |
| puckeredrosebud | running openvpn server on ubuntu 12.04, how can i make sure all ports are open for openvpn clients?? | 16:04 |
| puckeredrosebud | running in client to client mode not bridged | 16:05 |
| karab44 | bekks: so I guess I have to install it, cause packet is not installed by default. :) | 16:05 |
| bekks | puckeredrosebud: By checking your config, and the open ports. | 16:05 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: EdwardSnowden I mean the nginx documentations is this: http://nginx.org/en/docs/ ? | 16:05 |
| bekks | karab44: Thats right, yes. | 16:05 |
| karab44 | Thank you bro | 16:05 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, yes | 16:05 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: I am out of your ticket now, since you dont want to listen to suggestions/advises but stick to your own ideas. | 16:05 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: please accept my apologize | 16:06 |
| puckeredrosebud | bekks, what would i add or edit in my conf? also, my openvpn conf? how do i check those open ports? still pretty new to most things | 16:06 |
| BongoX | karab44: do you have router which supports printer sharing? much easier... | 16:06 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: I do not mean to do this but I am really confused with all these details and trying to understand what to do | 16:06 |
| bekks | puckeredrosebud: I dont know your config, ,how am I supposed to tell you what you have to change? :) | 16:06 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: again please accept my apologize and be patient | 16:06 |
| karab44 | BongoX: unfortunetly no, I do not have any printserver... :( | 16:06 |
| puckeredrosebud | that's what im wondering, where do i start? lol | 16:07 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Then just listen to the advise: "If you dont know the details of a webserver configuration, then stick with the well-documented apache." | 16:07 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: this is the official documentation you refer to : https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/index.html ? | 16:07 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: For the third time, I am giving you this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP | 16:07 |
| BongoX | i have a brother laser printer on a avm fritzbox 7330... shares perfectly well to linux and windoze | 16:08 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: my friend in the top of the page, it says : "To find the Ubuntu Server Guide related to your specific version, please go to: https://help.ubuntu.com/, select your Ubuntu version and then click on Ubuntu Server Guide. For the latest LTS version (12.04 LTS) of Ubuntu Server, please go tohttps://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/index.html" | 16:08 |
| Johnny_Linux | brother works pretty good | 16:09 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: and this is the same link I asked you about, https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/index.html or I am still not understand ? | 16:09 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: I know that, yes. But we are talking about configuring youe webserver, and not your entire server. I you need to do that first, refer to the server guide. | 16:09 |
| puckeredrosebud | i think i need to run some iptables command, but i'm not sure how to put it together. iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport ALL -j DNAT --to 10.8.0.10, can't be right | 16:09 |
| EdwardSnowden | mdghbrhn, Read the whole server guide, you'll understand how servers work. Then you can configure a web server | 16:09 |
| BongoX | yeah, brother rocks | 16:09 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/index.html are different links - do you see the difference? | 16:09 |
| EdwardSnowden | puckeredrosebud, It's right, iptables is complicated, use ufw | 16:10 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: yes there are different | 16:11 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: So your question is answered. They are different. | 16:12 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: please what are the differences in between both ? | 16:12 |
| BongoX | karab44: windows supports LPR and raw-sharing... | 16:12 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Please read them, and you will know. | 16:12 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP is part or included in the server guide ? | 16:13 |
| karab44 | they are talking about cifs-utils, what is that? Isn't it samba newer substitute? | 16:13 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Do you see it included in the serverguide? | 16:13 |
| karab44 | I want to install minimum and essential packets. | 16:13 |
| karab44 | only | 16:13 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: I mean this : https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/lamp-applications.html | 16:14 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: How about finally start reading the links? | 16:14 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: ok ok :) | 16:14 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: which one to go through first? | 16:15 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP OR this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/index.html | 16:15 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Both. | 16:16 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: First the entire serverguide, then the apache guide. | 16:16 |
| mdghbrhn | bekks: ok | 16:16 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: For the fifth time now. | 16:16 |
| karab44 | okay | 16:18 |
| karab44 | now a lot of configuration... but I will skip that. | 16:18 |
| airtonix | did someone here mention problems with chrome tabs freezing now and then? | 16:18 |
| bekks | karab44: It wont work without configuring it. | 16:19 |
| karab44 | please no, what about exploring other windows-PC's through nautilus and share my own resources? | 16:20 |
| karab44 | Can't I do that? | 16:20 |
| bekks | karab44: That wont help you. | 16:21 |
| appleStore | nothing will help you now | 16:21 |
| appleStore | you are doomed | 16:21 |

| bazhang | appleStore, actual ubuntu support question? | 16:22 |
| EdwardSnowden | karab44, You can explore windows shares already | 16:22 |
| EdwardSnowden | karab44, Go to browse network | 16:22 |
| appleStore | bazhang: I am actually just trying to see if I could get emacs to run and IRC client | 16:22 |
| bazhang | appleStore, it has one built in | 16:22 |
| karab44 | yes, I had Windows Network but accessing it always finished with error | 16:23 |
| bazhang | appleStore, ask in #emacs | 16:23 |
| karab44 | but what exactly I want is to share my printer to other, windows users | 16:23 |
| karab44 | so I installed samba for that. | 16:23 |
| bekks | karab44: If you want to share your printer, you have to configure the samba server. As I already told you. | 16:24 |
| appleStore | bazhang: I am bored in an Apple store, waiting for my phone to recharge, so I poked about emacs to get the IRC client working. I know it's built in, I just have never used it before, so I made it work here. I'm using it right now to connect. All my regular chatrooms are kinda dead, so I figured I'd go for oine that might be popular | 16:24 |
| EdwardSnowden | karab44, Well you have to create a samba user first | 16:24 |
| EdwardSnowden | karab44, smbpasswd -a username | 16:24 |
| === mint is now known as Guest2214 | ||
| bazhang | appleStore, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please, this is support only | 16:24 |
| karab44 | bekks: I wish I could skip it. I don't want to configure anymore! :( | 16:24 |
| === Guest2214 is now known as tomtmo | ||
| karab44 | but ok, I will :) | 16:24 |

| === Rokkross_ is now known as Rokkross | ||
| appleStore | bazhang: I apologise, I didn't know that this was support only. take care. | 16:25 |
| EdwardSnowden | karab44, install the samba gui then | 16:25 |
| karab44 | hmmm | 16:25 |
| karab44 | I still learn to hack in terminal | 16:25 |
| bekks | karab44: Better learn how to type commands in terminal. :) | 16:25 |
| karab44 | so better to get some experience by doing this task | 16:25 |
| karab44 | bekks: that's what I am talkin about :) | 16:26 |
| karab44 | hack sounds better :> | 16:26 |
| karab44 | So now I am gonna hack this printer | 16:26 |
| bekks | Poor printer. | 16:27 |
| karab44 | it is motivation! configure ---> lame HACK ----> awesome! | 16:27 |
| bekks | karab44: It is nonsense, and not even cool. | 16:27 |
| karab44 | ok thank you very much. I think now I understand what I need and what I have to do | 16:28 |
| karab44 | okay most of task is generally a hacking. Because many things still are problematic or awkward | 16:29 |
| karab44 | comparing to other OS | 16:30 |
| karab44 | but I don't mind. | 16:30 |
| bekks | karab44: There is no single bit of hacking involved. It is just learning on how to run commands after learning what they actually do. | 16:30 |
| Blal | Hi, somewhat noob here -- if I'm using tmux to run an ssh session to my VPS in, how do I then detach from tmux on the client without sending the command to the server? Thanks | 16:31 |
| Blal | Okay scratch that, how do you send tmux commands to the server? | 16:32 |

| surferboy | because my fav config just doesn't work with 13.04 | 16:33 |
| Blal | KAMELOSO | 16:34 |
| Blal | You just ordered a 1000l of milk | 16:34 |
| karab44 | bekks: Well, recompiling source with proper flags, reconfiguring kernels, fixing broken code, jiggling between libraries, because some are bug affected and correcting incorrect values in configuration files to make your mouse work is actually a hacking. As I said many things still doesn't work like it should | 16:34 |
| puckeredrosebud | ive got openvpn server running on ubuntu server 12.04 and i'm trying to forward all ports for openvpn clients. ports for other services on the server work fine, like transmission, http, etc. but the ports the openvpn clients are trying to use are still closed. | 16:35 |
| bekks | karab44: All that has absolutely nothing to do with configuring a samba server. | 16:35 |
| bazhang | !ot | Blal | 16:35 |
| puckeredrosebud | how can i start to figure out what | 16:35 |
| puckeredrosebud | s going on and fix it | 16:35 |
| karab44 | hehehe I don't know yet | 16:35 |
| Blal | thanks, bazhang | 16:35 |
| Blal | and puckeredrosebud , what port and what proto | 16:35 |
| karab44 | but I expect the worst | 16:35 |
| puckeredrosebud | i'd like it to be all ports, not application or port specific but for examplesake, 49574 | 16:35 |
| Blal | Try the default oVPN part first, 1194 | 16:36 |
| Blal | on UDP | 16:36 |
| puckeredrosebud | the client is connect no problem, but the client needs to listen on certain ports and they are showing closed | 16:36 |

| Blal | Hm, try #OpenVPN but they are likely to get mad at you, puckeredrosebud | 16:38 |
| puckeredrosebud | they did last time. had to get schooled on how pfsense handles openvpn server in a peculiar way.. :/ | 16:39 |

| MonkeyDust | darth_damian_000 javascript is a programming code | 16:43 |

| bazhang | !java | darth_damian_000 | 16:44 |
| ubottu | darth_damian_000: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin.

| cipherson | yes | 16:55 |
| cipherson | don't know how tho | 16:55 |
| cipherson | IPMI would be the best option if you wan it | 16:56 |
| Johnny_Linux | cipherson http://askubuntu.com/questions/130393/how-to-configure-the-touchpad-middle-click | 16:56 |
| cipherson | have* | 16:56 |
| ska_ | How would I find the IP address as well? I guess someone needs to monitor dhcp, or have the system beep out its address :) | 16:56 |
| cipherson | Johnny_Linux thx i will read that | 16:56 |
| Johnny_Linux | k | 16:57 |
| ska_ | I think its a dell so it has drac or somesuch. | 16:57 |
| Johnny_Linux | its a start anyway | 16:57 |
| cipherson | ska_ IPMI if you have it would have its own IP that you can connect to and control the system | 16:57 |
| cipherson | you can pass a iso and run it as well as interact with the terminal | 16:57 |
| === clepto|away is now known as clepto | ||
| cipherson | ska_ you can also make a auto install ubuntu disk that will run all the confuration for you | 16:58 |

| ocooel | Is myunity safe to use..? | 17:00 |
| Johnny_Linux | yes | 17:00 |
| ska_ | cipherson: I can use IPMI, but I thought it wasn't easy to configure.. It uses ssh? | 17:01 |
| angs | is it possible to connect a remote ubuntu desktop (12.04 and kubuntu) how teamviewer does? | 17:03 |
| ocooel | Johnny_Linux: Does it add PPA's and third party packages..? | 17:03 |
| Johnny_Linux | ocooel only if and when you allow them after a full installation | 17:04 |
| cipherson | ska_ | 17:05 |
| ocooel | Johnny_Linux: Would you say it's safer then UbuntuTweak..? | 17:05 |
| ska_ | yea | 17:05 |
| cipherson | IPMI should have a web interface you can access | 17:05 |
| cipherson | try browsing to its IP | 17:06 |
| cipherson | it will have a loggin | 17:06 |
| ska_ | oh.. that makes it kinda too easy :) | 17:06 |
| cipherson | in there you can access a console (Java) that will show the screen as if it had one | 17:06 |
| Johnny_Linux | ocooel Ubuntu-Tweak is good for those who know the ropes already. | 17:06 |
| cipherson | in there you can pass it and ISO of ubuntu | 17:06 |

| wilee-nilee | yap, the question is unanswerable really, any number of things can cause this most likely is something you have done. | 17:41 |
| cpined | hello, I'm not sure if this is the right place for this question. When I grep a file that has a line which includes '\r' and I output the results to a file the '\r' is retained, this is done on Ubuntu. But on windows cygwin the '\r' is not retained. | 17:42 |
| yap | wilee-nilee, okay, thanks | 17:42 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | cpined: that's because the end of line conventions are different for Windows | 17:42 |
| ubuntutis | anybody here used aircrack before? | 17:43 |
| cpined | is there a way I can retain it on windows? | 17:43 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | cpined: you should convert the input before feeding it to grep, e.g. dos2unix, unix2dos | 17:43 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | Or set the locale variables, that might do too. | 17:44 |
| cpined | but I need the '\r' to stay in the line. So grep 'Message IN' file.log > output.txt....I need the '\r' to be retained. | 17:44 |
| MonkeyDust | cpined try to add a line or script to detect the OS and modify the end-of-line accordingly | 17:45 |
| === akshay_ is now known as akshay_r | ||
| Eduard_Munteanu | cpined: why do you need the \r though? | 17:45 |
| cpined | because I am reading a file to extract HL7 messages and then run a script to read the file to send those messages to a host/port...the '\r' in HL7 indicates a new piece of information. | 17:47 |
| cpined | HL7 - Health Level 7 | 17:47 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | cpined: I think you should use binary-oriented tools then, not grep. | 17:47 |
| cpined | ok....thanks | 17:48 |

| Jakey | hi | 17:56 |
| Jakey | this is weird | 17:56 |
| Jakey | why is ubuntu using linaros kernel | 17:56 |
| Jakey | ubuntu 13.04 | 17:56 |
| kostkon | JhonnyBoi, is this the list of podcasts you are looking for? http://www.hot97.com/podcasts/ | 17:56 |
| bekks | Jakey: Because you configured your system to do so. | 17:57 |
| Jakey | bekks: no i didn't | 17:57 |
| Jakey | it came with the distros | 17:57 |
| kostkon | Jakey, post the output of: uname -a | 17:58 |
| wilee-nilee | Jakey, Would have to be in the repo. | 17:58 |
| bekks | Jakey: It does not. Ubuntu ships with an Ubuntu kernel, not with an Linaro kernel. | 17:58 |
| OerHeks | Jakey, ubuntu does not, you did somehow. | 17:58 |
| Jakey | ahh.. | 17:59 |
| Jakey | Configured with: ../src/configure -v --with-pkgversion='Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1' | 17:59 |
| bekks | Jakey: Whats the output of "uname -a"? | 18:00 |
| Jakey | thatsUsing built-in specs. | 18:00 |
| Jakey | COLLECT_GCC=gcc | 18:00 |
| Jakey | COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/lto-wrapper | 18:00 |
| Jakey | Target: x86_64-linux-gnu | 18:00 |
| Jakey | Configured with: ../src/configure -v --with-pkgversion='Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1 | 18:00 |
| straterra | Is there a lighter version of Gnome I can install? I'm running latest Ubuntu on my netbook and its chewing up CPU just idling here | 18:00 |
| FloodBot1 | Jakey: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 18:00 |
| bekks | Jakey: Whats the output of "uname -a"? | 18:00 |
| Jakey | bekks: what you expect | 18:01 |
| bekks | Jakey: One line. No spam. | 18:01 |
| Jakey | it would spit out the generic kernel of course | 18:01 |
| bekks | Jakey: If you dont want to provide it, because you are actually not using Ubuntu, its your choice. But dont expect support then. | 18:02 |
| al_la | question: trying to wipe a drive ... is there any harm in deleting the lost+found directory so I can run sfill on a wholely empty partition? | 18:02 |
| Jakey | 3.8.0-30-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 22 20:52:24 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 18:02 |
| kostkon | Jakey, where's the linaro kernel then | 18:02 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: why are you wiping the filesystem and not the block device? | 18:02 |
| Jakey | @ bekks | 18:02 |
| Jakey | kostkon: its there | 18:02 |
| wilee-nilee | straterra, There are light desktops what are you running now unity, and have you cdhecked what is running? | 18:03 |
| wilee-nilee | checked* | 18:03 |
| Jakey | why is gcc spilling out | 18:04 |
| straterra | It's python and compiz chewing up cpu | 18:04 |
| Jakey | gcc version 4.7.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1) | 18:04 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: I just want to ensure there's no data on device so I can give away. I wipe and secure-delete seem to only allow on partitions, not devices. I deleted partitions, created a big empty one then was going to use sfill. What do you recommend? | 18:04 |
| straterra | And yes, unity. I hate it | 18:04 |
| Jakey | wilee-nilee: get rid of unity and use cinnamon :) | 18:04 |
| wilee-nilee | straterra, You could try xubuntu or the lighter lubuntu, use nicks here if you can. | 18:04 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: I tried running wipe but it appeared that it would take 6+ weeks to complete | 18:04 |
| wilee-nilee | Jakey, Talk to the right user. | 18:05 |
| Jakey | http://askubuntu.com/questions/292394/how-to-completely-remove-unity-and-replace-it-with-cinnamon | 18:06 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: you can wipe devices or files. In the latter case it's only useful if said file hasn't been deleted already. | 18:06 |
| Jakey | straterra: T^^^^ | 18:06 |
| Jakey | straterra: i'm running ubuntu with cinnamon | 18:06 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: if there's sensitive information on the device and the filesystem doesn't account for it, you need to wipe the entire drive. Something like dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/yourdevice bs=10M should do for normal HDDs. | 18:07 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | Zeroing out HDDs is quite secure. | 18:07 |
| Jakey | i don't know why i should | 18:07 |
| Jakey | just install linuxmint 15 | 18:07 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: Wipe on device kills MBR as well correct? Using wipe would take 6 weeks, unless I am missing something with recommended options. Drive is only 200 GB. I used 'wipe -kD /dev/sdx1' | 18:07 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: Can I PM? | 18:08 |
| Jakey | so why does gcc spill : gcc version 4.7.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1) | 18:08 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: why PM? We can talk here unless you don't want to disclose information publically. | 18:08 |
| wilee-nilee | al_la, no clean should take that long, why is that not a huge red flag for you? | 18:08 |
| stonix | Jakey: it's saying your using a version maybe modified to work with Ubuntu/Linaro << | 18:08 |
| stonix | not saying you are using a linaro kernel | 18:09 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: also, what wilee-nilee says, that's way too long. I don't know what wipe does, it may do multiple passes but AFAICT that's unnecessary. Wiping with /dev/urandom should be very secure. | 18:10 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: can you explain the dd command? read in all zeros, write to device in 10M chunks? Also, how would I use /dev/urandom? I agree, 6 week is huge red flag which is why I was looking for a dif option | 18:11 |
| AlanBell | Jakey: that is the identifier for GCC, not the kernel | 18:12 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: yes, that's pretty much what it does, 10M is just a big enough value | 18:12 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: you'd replace /dev/zero with /dev/urandom | 18:12 |
| Jakey | anyway | 18:13 |
| Jakey | i'm just starting linux a couple of years now | 18:13 |
| Jakey | i started using linuxmint | 18:13 |
| AlanBell | and linaro and ubuntu do have a lot in common (Canonical is a founding member, they shared developer summits for some time) | 18:13 |
| Jakey | anyway | 18:13 |
| Jakey | i just want to know what changes ubuntu make to debian | 18:13 |
| Jakey | so that what makees it ubuntu? | 18:14 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: 'dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdb bs=10M' would do the trick? Also what is advantage of using bs=10M? | 18:14 |
| AlanBell | some packages are altered a bit, some are added, the Unity UI is added, some configuration and integration is done, and there is a different release process and support timescale Jakey | 18:15 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: the default bs is way too small and it makes things slower, you just need a big enough value | 18:15 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: and yeah, that should do. | 18:15 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: regardless of bs size, it still copies to every sector correct? | 18:16 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: bs makes it read and write in bs-sized chunks. If that's too small, it incurs a significant overhead. | 18:16 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: yes | 18:16 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: the drive size needn't be a multiple of bs | 18:16 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: ah, perfect, that answers it. this will effectively remove lost+found of inode data and whatnot, correct? also, thanks for the explanation on all of this ... very helpful. teach a man to fish... | 18:17 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: obviously the filesystem (including lost+found) will be destroyed | 18:18 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: thanks again | 18:18 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | No problem. :) | 18:18 |
| Quest | how to see which dirs in my system have more than 1 gb size ? | 18:19 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: and it has begun. how long would you expect it to take for 200 GB sata 3 drive? on the scale of hours? | 18:20 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: you can kill -USR1 on dd's pid and it will print out how much it has done and the transfer rate | 18:20 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | Without stopping it, that is. | 18:21 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | And yeah, something like 4 hrs maybe, ballpark. | 18:21 |
| dex90_ | Quest: http://superuser.com/questions/453323/how-to-find-over-1gb-folders-and-execute-another-command-in-linux-terminal | 18:23 |
| dex90_ | nice solution at that site. Problems : dir names contain whitespace, and parent directories with sub over 1gb are also 1gb in size. | 18:24 |
| smitty1ky | hello? | 18:25 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | smitty1ky: hi | 18:25 |
| smitty1ky | um. so I bought a Micro SDHC last night, and I plugged it into my laptop this morning. ubuntu recognizes it as "sdab" but it doesnt show up in file manager, only terminal. In windows, the card shows up as F:. but the formatter from sdcard.org says that this card is unsupported. | 18:27 |
| smitty1ky | Gparted also doesnt see it. | 18:28 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | smitty1ky: "sdab"? That seems odd... did you look in dmesg for it? | 18:28 |
| smitty1ky | dmesg> | 18:29 |
| smitty1ky | ?* | 18:29 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | smitty1ky: the kernel log | 18:29 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: I don't see -USR1 option in kill man. 'kill -USR1 <pid>' would do it? | 18:29 |
| smitty1ky | I just did. | 18:29 |
| smitty1ky | I dont really know what im looking for, other than the fact that every other line mentions "dev sdab" | 18:30 |
| Quest | this is quit strange that my / is 3.3G but df -H is showing up /dev/xvda1 8.5G 8.0G 56M 100% / http://pastebin.com/gWQ0wc6K | 18:30 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: "Alternate signals may be specified in three ways: -9, -SIGKILL or -KILL." | 18:30 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | al_la: and yeah, that'd do | 18:30 |
| smitty1ky | Eduard_Munteanu: What do I do now? | 18:31 |
| al_la | Eduard_Munteanu: success, and very handy. Thanks again for the help and info. | 18:32 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | smitty1ky: can you pastebin the last 50 lines or so? e.g. dmesg | tail -n 50 | wgetpaste (or whatever there is in Ubuntu for pastebins) | 18:32 |
| Quest | whats wrong? | 18:32 |
| al_la | Eduard_Muntean: One last easy question ... I still don't understand the -USR1 or how the "Alternate signals may be specified in three ways: -9, -SIGKILL or -KILL" explains it. | 18:33 |
| smitty1ky | "dmesg | tail -n 50 |" returns nothing | 18:34 |
| bekks | smitty1ky: One | to much at the end. | 18:34 |
| mdghbrhn | how to register a new account in ubuntu forum | 18:35 |
| kostkon | smitty1ky, you said you can access it from the terminal? does it mean it gets mounted somewhere? | 18:35 |
| kostkon | mdghbrhn, you need to create an u1 account: https://one.ubuntu.com/ | 18:36 |
| wilee-nilee | mdghbrhn, Try #ubuntuforums | 18:36 |
| smitty1ky | kostkon I cant access it (as far as I know), but "ls /dev/sd*" returns "/dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda4 /dev/sda5 /dev/sdb" with the card in and "/dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda4 /dev/sda5" with the card out | 18:37 |
| dex90_ | smitty1ky: mount | grep sdab , just to see if its mounted | 18:38 |
| kostkon | smitty1ky, how do you access it then, what's its mount point? | 18:38 |
| kostkon | smitty1ky, or you just mean the above ls output? | 18:38 |
| smitty1ky | just the ls output | 18:39 |
| Quest | see line 38 and 14 conflicts with line 19 . why ? http://pastebin.com/0MXeCZ4Y | 18:39 |
| smitty1ky | also, "mount | grep sdab" returns nothing | 18:39 |
| smitty1ky | Eduard_Munteanu: I made what you wanted on pastebin: http://pastebin.com/rW1ZFTxQ | 18:41 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | smitty1ky: there's no "sdab" in there | 18:42 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | smitty1ky: it also looks like your card reader or drivers might not support that particular card. (Yeah, SD cards really suck.) | 18:42 |
| smitty1ky | Im just realising that now. | 18:42 |
| mdghbrhn | what is the recommended virtual machine to be used with ubunu | 18:43 |
| smitty1ky | But my computer is spec'd to support SDHC cards... | 18:43 |
| kostkon | mdghbrhn, as the host? vb? easily available | 18:44 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | smitty1ky: it's not a SDHC issue per se | 18:44 |
| kostkon | smitty1ky, if it's the /dev/sdb then i'm seeing a lot of error in your paste | 18:44 |

| mdghbrhn | kostkon: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html | 18:45 |
| kostkon | smitty1ky, worth a try | 18:45 |
| kostkon | mdghbrhn, yeah | 18:46 |
| kostkon | mdghbrhn, eer not wait | 18:46 |
| kostkon | no* | 18:46 |
| smitty1ky | I might have to invest in one of those SD to USB readers | 18:46 |

| danilko | Is it possible to install Lotus Symphony onto Ubuntu 13.0.4? | 19:06 |
| Ubuntivity | Hello | 19:07 |
| daftykins | hi | 19:07 |
| Ubuntivity | I have a problem with wget | 19:08 |
| daftykins | please give us some detail with a question on one line | 19:08 |
| SchrodingersScat | Ubuntivity: and what would that be? | 19:08 |
| Ubuntivity | After some downloading I get the error: "Cannot write to <myfile> (Read-only file system). | 19:08 |
| daftykins | sounds like your file system is set to read only! | 19:09 |
| Ubuntivity | While my filesystem is mounted as rw as "mount" states: /dev/sda5 on /mnt/drive type vfat (rw) | 19:09 |
| SchrodingersScat | Ubuntivity: could it be a permission problem? | 19:09 |
| daftykins | not on FAT | 19:09 |
| daftykins | i would've thought | 19:09 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: I'm running wget as root (using sudo) to overcome that problem | 19:10 |
| Ubuntivity | daftykins: What do you mean 'not on FAT'? | 19:10 |
| daftykins | not sure you'd get permissions issues on FAT | 19:10 |
| daftykins | Ubuntivity: can you pastebin "ls -l" from your attempted download path? | 19:11 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: It downloads for some time, then gives me that "read only" error, which means it COULD download for some time. | 19:11 |
| Ubuntivity | daftykins: You mean in the working directory? | 19:11 |
| wylde | permission issues on the directory it's mounted in? ...just a thought | 19:11 |
| SchrodingersScat | Ubuntivity: right, i was thinking about how you phrased that, so how long is some time? and right, daftykins, Ubuntivity does it create the file at all? | 19:11 |
| danilko | How do I get around the dependency libnotify1 >=0.4.4 not satisfiable error? Installing Symphony 3.0.1 on Ubuntu 13.04? | 19:11 |
| daftykins | danilko: find a repo with a newer version | 19:12 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: Not sure how much time, but basically for several minutes. And yes, it creates the file and downloads a part of it. | 19:12 |
| === Dave is now known as Guest17668 | ||
| SchrodingersScat | Ubuntivity: happen to do a backup of the drive lately? because that sounds scary to me. | 19:12 |
| CH33ZBURGER | or build it from source | 19:12 |
| cstewart | anyone have experience with partylog | 19:13 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: It is a secondary (non-essential) PC, I won't really mind getting its drive wiped! | 19:13 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: But I usually use it for downloading large files using wget -c | 19:13 |
| Ubuntivity | and for unknown reason I'm getting this error today every now and then! | 19:13 |
| SchrodingersScat | Ubuntivity: right, normally that should work, what does it do in your case? | 19:13 |
| Ubuntivity | I'm mounting my drive using "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda5 /mnt/drive" | 19:14 |
| danilko | @ daftykins: I have libnotify4 installed, I guess by default. I could google a repo for libnotify1.. do you think that libnotify4 is greater than or equal to libnotify1? | 19:14 |
| daftykins | don't have a clue | 19:14 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: It downloads for some time, and I leave it and go away, then when I back I find that error saying "(Read-only file system) and can't continute download until I "umount" then "mount" again the drive! | 19:15 |
| dex90_ | danilko: some discussion here: http://www-03.ibm.com/software/lotus/symphony/symphonyForum.nsf/0/B4D87A0C7CBA6884852579C9004540AC?Open= | 19:15 |
| jimmy____ | kostkon are you still there? i'm having trouble finding a download link for the 32-bit package | 19:16 |
| danilko | I suppose its not teribly important. I mean we do have libreoffice, but I was hoping to install something maybe a bit more robust. Maybe the world has passed Symphony by and it's too old. | 19:16 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: I've unmounted and remounted my drive again, and now wget is downloading once more, but not sure how long will it keep goint until it stops with that error message! | 19:17 |
| danilko | dex90: thanks. I am ckecking it out. | 19:18 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, a good read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiArch | 19:18 |
| opcode0 | how about you download that file to another filesystem? :P | 19:18 |
| SchrodingersScat | Ubuntivity: I suspect a drive problem, but I could be way off. | 19:18 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, try with package_name:i386 | 19:18 |
| jimmy____ | kostkon: libsdl1.2debiani386 ? doesn't work | 19:19 |
| Ubuntivity | SchrodingersScat: a file system error? or a physical drive error? | 19:19 |

| kostkon | jimmy____, what's the message you are getting | 19:29 |
| jimmy____ | when trying to load df this is it: "./libs/Dwarf_Fortress: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" | 19:29 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, that's the old one, isn't it | 19:29 |
| jimmy____ | kostkon yep I think so. I thought I figured that one out | 19:30 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, so you are still getting that message about sdl | 19:30 |

| jimmy____ | thanks kostkon! | 19:35 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, apl?? what's the exact message | 19:35 |

| === RDash[AW] is now known as RDash | ||
| jimmy____ | kostkon yes | 19:36 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, make sure you have: libopenal1:i386 | 19:37 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, then find the "Sound" subsection here and give the 3 command it says: http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2012:Installation | 19:38 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, actually no forget about it | 19:38 |
| hays | OerHeks: hm ok what if the /etc/apt/sources.list seems to have changed without my doing, and the asus.archive.canonical.com source is now removed (??!?) | 19:39 |
| miliisipoika | hey.. can I ask question? | 19:39 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, it seems it's looking for libopenal.so instead of libopenal.so.1 | 19:39 |
| miliisipoika | some years ago when you could order ubuntu/kubuntu cds online for free of charge, I did so for a while and now I have around 100-150 cds | 19:39 |
| miliisipoika | I never use ubuntu, is this good? | 19:39 |
| BluesKaj | miliisipoika, we wouldn't be if it wasn't | 19:40 |
| miliisipoika | no I mean is it good thing I did? | 19:40 |
| miliisipoika | I do nothing with it.. maybe use as throwing cards or something | 19:40 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, maybe in your case, something along the lines of sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libopenal.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libopenal.so | 19:40 |
| kostkon | jimmy____, and sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsndfile.so.1 ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsndfile.so | 19:41 |
| OerHeks | hays then do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade to reload the lists | 19:41 |
| hays | OerHeks: founds something in sources.list.d/ | 19:42 |
| hays | OerHeks: but it looks like some weird chinese metapackages only... seems safe to remove | 19:42 |
| [twisti] | hey, any suggestions for a bittorrent client to run on a headless server/text mode, ideally with maybe like a web interface or something ? | 19:42 |

| [twisti] | can either of those prioritize different files inside a torrent differently ? | 19:43 |
| wylde | [twisti]: transmission can if I recall | 19:44 |
| [twisti] | thanks | 19:44 |
| wylde | [twisti]: little tip. Disable the daemon before editing the config ;) | 19:45 |

I installed it and all the dependencies were met. Now Lotus is doing something but hard to tell. At least the error message is gone. | 19:47 |
| kostkon | Daniel0, lucid? | 19:47 |
| kostkon | oops | 19:47 |
| kostkon | danilko, lucid?* | 19:48 |
| jgk | as hi | 19:48 |

| funkt | Hi there I have got a partition in ubuntu 12.04 which i want to use for my backup files but i cant write to it anyone have any ideaS? | 19:50 |
| danilko | symphony still applying changes... So cross fingers | 19:50 |
| hays | Is this repo as useless as it seems? http://asus.archive.canonical.com/dists/precise-annan/ | 19:50 |
| wilee-nilee | funkt, In 12.04, you mean a ext4 partition on the HD? | 19:51 |
| hays | It seems like it is a baidu plugin for firefox | 19:51 |
| funkt | erm it is ext 4 yes | 19:51 |
| hays | and some chinese settings | 19:51 |
| darkapp | hi | 19:52 |

| cil | danilko: others have installed the older libnotify version, and have got symphony to work. Slow to start apparently. | 19:54 |
| danilko | cil, I am testing my first run | 19:55 |
| iljuschin | hello everyone! today all my filesystem was made read-only. I asked for advice here, and it was suggested that hard disk could be damaged, hence linux would start system as read-only. since my hard disk showed also bad sectors, I was strongly advised to replace the hard disk. later when I ran "fix broken" in grub's recovery menu, it streamed a number of command lines ending with "FIXED", and subsequently the read-only mode was gone. (j | 19:55 |
| iljuschin | ust prior to doing this fix, I even had problem starting ubuntu in the normal mode). | 19:55 |
| iljuschin | gosh, it's been such a long post | 19:55 |
| iljuschin | the question is, if the read-only was really related to hard disk, if so, how could it be fixed with recovery mode? | 19:56 |
| daftykins | iljuschin: i'm not entirely sure what you're asking | 19:57 |
| funkt | hey there thank you but its saying I am an invalid user? | 19:58 |
| iljuschin | daftykins, sorry, rephrasing here: if I had a read-only system today because of a hard-disk damage, how could it be fixed by starting recovery menu and running "fix broken"? I'm trying to figure the reason of the problem I had today | 19:58 |
| daftykins | iljuschin: well it could reallocate the data if anything was written into the bad sectors | 19:59 |
| iljuschin | today all my files were read-only. I couldn't move or change them. | 19:59 |
| iljuschin | until I did the referred fix | 19:59 |
| OerHeks | iljuschin, recovery starts before mounting the partition, so that is why it is able to fix | 19:59 |
| danilko | cil, it works. Ubuntu 13.04, with libnotify1 from lucid.. Not slow, as far as I can tell. Pops right up. | 19:59 |
| iljuschin | daftykins, OerHeks; but if it was something that can be fixed by applying fix, then my hard disk's state sounds not to be related to anything that causes a read-only start of the system, does it? | 20:01 |
| hays | is upgrading to 13 on a laptop probably going to be smooth or will i likely have issues | 20:01 |
| kostkon | !info libnotify raring | 20:02 |
| ubottu | Package libnotify does not exist in raring | 20:02 |
| cil | danilko: nice =) others have tried it, and moved over to libreoffice | 20:02 |
| kostkon | !info libnotify lucid | 20:02 |
| ubottu | Package libnotify does not exist in lucid | 20:02 |
| OerHeks | iljuschin, it is possible it does, wait for the next error | 20:02 |
| iljuschin | in other words, it is still the same hard disk, but the problem is gone now. | 20:02 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: if theres a bad problem detected with the filesystem, the OS will kick it over to 'read only mode' to prevent any more damage. a fsck then can hopefully repair it. | 20:04 |
| iljuschin | OerHeks: so files are possibly temporarily reallocated until the bad sectors create trouble again | 20:04 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: it might have been due to hardware issue. or just some odd software quirk | 20:04 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: yes. the bad sectord can get worked around. but i would be making a backup and keepinmg an eye on that drive in the future. | 20:05 |
| iljuschin | Dr_Willis: I spent the rest of my afternoon doing it :) | 20:05 |
| Dr_Willis | I take all my 'some whats suspect' hard drives.. and put videos on them . for the kids media players they have in their rooms. ;) if the HDs die.. no big loss. | 20:06 |
| iljuschin | Dr_Willis: I was today recommended to discard the hard disk, yet it has just 2 bad sectors. | 20:06 |
| Dr_Willis | i often find it has a domino effect. ;) | 20:06 |
| Dr_Willis | id keep an eye on it. and be sure to keep backups. | 20:07 |
| iljuschin | funny, I also thought about videos for another suspicious drive | 20:07 |
| OerHeks | bad sectors are likely to spread. | 20:08 |
| kostkon | iljuschin, generally you don't want your drive to get bad sectors because if it does things can get worse rapidly | 20:08 |
| * BluesKaj avoids the bad sector bandwagon :) | 20:09 | |
| iljuschin | kostkon, yes, I've witnessed it once. Dr_Willis: therefore I feel like totally abandoning their mission-critical use, since I get always this feeling that something will not be fully saved or backed up while using them | 20:10 |
| danilko | cil, I have libreoffice too. I wanted to explore.. You know do it cause I can. I installed Skype and Opera and working on a whole laundry list of apps, over time. \ | 20:11 |

| bekks | mdghbrhn: No one in here will read it for you. | 20:21 |

| norman15 | hey, maby someone of you can help me. i look at the site pastebin.cc but i see an index of site. Why? | 20:22 |

| mdghbrhn | [FreeBSD]: I need to manage the vps, and this is why I felt lost with all these info like bekks says :( | 20:23 |
| Gamer1990 | how do i upgrade to 13.10 through the terminal? | 20:23 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: Then start reading the server guide finally. | 20:23 |
| kostkon | Gamer1990, then you need to head to #ubuntu+1 | 20:24 |
| bekks | mdghbrhn: I will not comment on that anymore. If you want to learn, learn. If you dont, do not. | 20:24 |
| Gamer1990 | hold on | 20:24 |
| Dr_Willis | mdghbrhn: print it out.. stick it in the bathroom. read some every day.. and eat a lot of fiber. | 20:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Soe1en: you might want to look into the 'sshfs' tool if you want finer control | 20:25 |
| Soe1en | Dr_Willis: thanks man, read about it several times, it's just, a half year ago I could have sworn gvfs-mount etc. would do as well | 20:26 |

| Hodapp | and OpenOffice.org in turn used to be StarOffice or whatever... | 20:35 |
| danilko | ohh I forgot.. I photoshop equivalent... | 20:35 |
| Gnarly | apache openoffice merged the ibm code into it | 20:36 |
| Gnarly | from what i saw in some screenshots, it appears you can do a symphony esc interface with the sidebar and such | 20:36 |
| danilko | At least with Libre Office you don't have to load the whole thing to get to a document. It's more modularized | 20:38 |

| unknown101 | !java | 21:56 |
| 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. | 21:56 |

| Dr_Willis | bray90820: without other software - Not that i know of. the normal Ubuntu Desktop shareing. is mainl for local lans. it can do vnc. but you would have to setup a tunnle i belive | 22:02 |

| aquarius | I have here a reasonably old Sony Vaio. It was running karmic (!); I upgraded to lucid (went fine) and then to precise. It will now not properly start X: I get a mouse cursor, but just a blue screen. When this "X" is started, I cannot switch to a VC; all I can do is restart. The machine has nvidia graphics and is running nouveau. I'm not sure where to start fixing this: I'll happily install the nvidia drivers, but i | 22:12 |
| aquarius | can't get into the desktop to run the restricted driver wizard or start the network! | 22:12 |

| lisberoia-artigu | does anyone here know how to develop a GRUB? | 22:14 |
| iljuschin | but how long does a hard disk last?.. | 22:14 |
| wylde | aquarius: the "additional-drivers" can be run from commandline using jockey-text. The network is something else though | 22:14 |
| Dr_Willis | aquarius: try booting to text mode. and 'apt-get install nvidia-current' perhaps | 22:14 |
| aquarius | Dr_Willis, how do I boot to text mode? I can boot into *recovery* mode, but there I don't have a network connection; it's just a simple root prompt. | 22:14 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: ive had hard drives be 20+ yrs old and still going.. and had new ones last 3 months ;) | 22:14 |
| Dr_Willis | !text | aquarius | 22:14 |
| ubottu | aquarius: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 22:14 |

| Dr_Willis | aquarius: you on wired or wireless network? | 22:15 |
| aquarius | wylde, I didn't know about jockey-text; that's going to be really useful too, once I have the network up | 22:15 |
| aquarius | Dr_Willis, wireless | 22:15 |
| aquarius | (annoyingly, for this case :)) | 22:15 |
| kostkon | iljuschin, for me i think it's completely random. as Dr_Willis already said some last 30 years some 3 days | 22:15 |
| iljuschin | Dr_Willis; so the quality worsened with new ones? | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | theres also the network manager cli tool. | 22:15 |

| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: quality has improved i imagine. its just so much more demand and tight tollerances | 22:16 |
| iljuschin | I've had my third hard disk breakdown in a year. ok, one was my failure. but the other two just got bad sectors (ok, one after 4 years, the other I don't know how long, because it was used) | 22:16 |
| alastor__ | system to be upgrade as if I'd installed a new version release? | 22:16 |
| kostkon | iljuschin, i think on average they *should* last 5-6 years | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: ive had se3veral hds replaced under warrenty ;) many sites you just go and enter the serial # and they will let you know how old they are. and often replace them | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor__, 13.10 is a development | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | Not a release yet | 22:18 |
| kostkon | iljuschin, but it's not rare at all to find 10y+ hdds in peoples old pcs from the 90s that are still in use for one reason or another | 22:18 |
| alastor__ | wilee-nilee: what does that mean? why do I see tons of new upgrades available for apt-get upgrade then? (i'm on 13.04) | 22:18 |
| aquarius | Dr_Willis, in grub, I (e)dit the command line (which is the one beginning "kernel", yes? there are four; root (hd0,0), kernel <lots of stuff>, initrd <pathname>, quiet. The one I want to edit is the kernel one?) and just put "text" on the end of it? (That ubottu URL sadly isn't there; the BootOptions page is, but it doesn't mention text mode a all.) | 22:18 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor__ Ubuntu has updates all the time | 22:19 |
| bejker | hi | 22:19 |
| alastor__ | wilee-nilee: but i think it's a bit odd that all of a sudden 500MB worth uf upgrades appear after I run do-release-upgrade -d, no? | 22:19 |
| iljuschin | Dr_Willis, kostkon; I also still have warranty for the current one. but now wondering whether that I removed Windows which was pre-installed will be a problem when demanding a replacement. | 22:20 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor__, daily generally | 22:20 |
| Dr_Willis | aquarius: look for 'quiet splash' and make it 'noquiet text nosplash' | 22:20 |

| kostkon | iljuschin, as long as you reinstall windows before giving it for a service repair you should be fine | 22:20 |
| bejker | from* | 22:20 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: id go buy a new hd and try to image that one to it. and swap it out... then try to get a replacement. | 22:20 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: if the HD came with the PC. they may expect you to return the whole pc. - thats often not worth the effort | 22:21 |
| kostkon | iljuschin, actually, you meant the hdd or your pc? | 22:21 |
| Dr_Willis | replaceiing a HD is about the easiest hardware task to do on pcs these days | 22:21 |
| iljuschin | Dr_Willis, the HD came with the PC. I meant that PC has still warranty. | 22:21 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor__ that is a distro upgrade, not odd at all | 22:21 |
| kostkon | iljuschin, the pc ok | 22:22 |
| iljuschin | kostkon, yes | 22:22 |
| Dr_Willis | bejker: you make a fstab entry for the swap partions you want to use | 22:22 |
| bejker | yes, but what comand for that? | 22:22 |
| alastor__ | wilee-nilee: but, shouldn't do-release-upgrade -d only "show" whether a new release is available, rather than do any actual changes? | 22:22 |
| bejker | if i habve swap on /dev/sdb2 | 22:22 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor__, what made you run that command? | 22:22 |
| bejker | have* | 22:22 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: ive found that warrenties on the whole pc are often.. well.. useless. ;) too many loopholes. and easier to fix myself. | 22:23 |
| Dr_Willis | !swap | bejker | 22:23 |
| ubottu | bejker: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 22:23 |
| Dr_Willis | bejker: look at the /etc/fstab file and see the example swap lines if any | 22:23 |
| alastor__ | wilee-nilee: to see whether there was a new ubuntu version available *without downloading it* | 22:23 |
| bejker | i know 4 what is swap | 22:23 |
| Dr_Willis | !fstab | bejker | 22:23 |
| ubottu | bejker: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 22:23 |
| iljuschin | Dr_Willis, kostkon ; I dont have the disc version of the very Windows that was pre-installed, but I have the same Windows version on recovery disc from another computer. would they realise it if I installed the other PC's Windows? | 22:23 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor_-, it won't do any unless you okay it. | 22:24 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: no idea. I alwasy make a dvd-restore set on any new pc i get. and often clone the HD to a 2nd external hd for backup | 22:24 |
| bejker | # swap was on /dev/sdb5 during installation | 22:24 |
| bejker | #UUID=14a2d79a-abd5-4015-9f30-e7ec4f1d2c5e none swap sw $ | 22:24 |
| bejker | but i have second swap | 22:24 |
| kostkon | iljuschin, hmm i guess not, if you use the license key that came with your current pc | 22:24 |
| bejker | i have just 1gb ram | 22:24 |
| Dr_Willis | bejker: so you use that UUID line as an exaple. and change the uuid # . and remove the # comment at the front | 22:24 |
| bejker | second i have on /dev/sdb2 | 22:24 |
| bejker | how to mount that automaticly | 22:25 |
| bejker | like crypytswap1 | 22:25 |
| Dr_Willis | You can use UUID= or the /dev/sdb2 type name. but UUID is the better way to define it. | 22:25 |
| iljuschin | kostkon, well, I'll try if they replace it | 22:25 |
| === LoganG is now known as LoganG|off | ||
| Dr_Willis | no idea on cryptswap. but normal swap. You just have a proper line in fstab and system sees it at boot time | 22:25 |
| alastor__ | wilee-nilee: ok thanks for explaining... i just hope everything goes ok | 22:26 |
| bejker | and how to check UUID ? | 22:26 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor__, did you hit the yes to upgrade? | 22:26 |
| Dr_Willis | bejker: i think the !fstab and !swap urls the bot gave explain it. | 22:27 |
| Dr_Willis | !uuid | bejker | 22:27 |
| ubottu | bejker: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 22:27 |

| iljuschin | actually I'd once thought I'd be quite happy working with live usb, but it turned out painfully slow..even though I'd bought a rather fast stick back then. | 22:27 |
| alastor__ | no, I don't remember doing so... now I ran apt-get upgrade and am waiting for everything to download... | 22:27 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: ;) ive ran from a live usb for several months on a netbook. ;) it depends on what you do with it. | 22:27 |
| alastor__ | wilee-nilee: ^ | 22:27 |
| wilee-nilee | alastor__, if it is downloading you can stop it | 22:28 |
| iljuschin | Dr_Willis, sure. but I was doing really normal work, also on netbook. and when I sometime reverted to HD install, the difference was visible, specially regarding netbook's performance limits. | 22:28 |

| wilee-nilee | Wensday, that is windows fast boot, I get about 15 with a ssd | 22:30 |
| Dr_Willis | iljuschin: get a SSD for that netbook. ;) and you will get amazed. :) looking at doing that here.. but the ssd costs more then the netbook | 22:32 |
| Dr_Willis | and its just hard to justify a ssd in a netbook | 22:33 |

| iljuschin | Dr_Willis, maybe wait till SSD prices normalize | 22:34 |
| wilee-nilee | Worth every cent | 22:34 |

| wilee-nilee | Not | 22:34 |

| alastor__ | is a new ubuntu version just a collection of new packages or is there something more to it? | 22:44 |

| wilee-nilee | Timvde, you on aadmin | 22:44 |
| Zignd | bekks, exactly! :D | 22:45 |
| bekks | alastor__: It is a new collection of packages. | 22:45 |
| BlackWeb | Is anyone here familiar with VSFTP | 22:45 |
| Timvde | wilee-nilee: It's a sudoers account, if that's what you mean | 22:45 |
| bekks | BlackWeb: Why? | 22:45 |
| Timvde | wilee-nilee: Default install in regard to user accounts | 22:45 |
| wilee-nilee | Timvde, I suspect it is just you understanding but that is a guess we don't know what you have tweaked | 22:47 |
| BlackWeb | k I have a question, I have a PC setup as a FTP server, & thats access-able over the Internet So I'm using a Passive IP in the config File. So my question is most ISP have a Download limit per month, But if I have another PC on the SAME LAN, & Point it to my WAN IP & access the FTP server Does my ISP see it as Traffic on WAN | 22:47 |
| bekks | BlackWeb: Yes. | 22:47 |
| Timvde | wilee-nilee: Barely anything. It's a default install I set up for my parents. I just installed some extra software. If you want some command output though, feel free to ask and I'll give it to you :) | 22:47 |
| BlackWeb | So even though both PC's are on LAN the Traffic is be counted as if its coming from WAN | 22:48 |
| wilee-nilee | Timvde, I'm on my nexus7 so a bit limited us all. | 22:49 |
| genii | BlackWeb: Becuase the traffic goes out to ISP dns server, then goes to whatever gateway your outward facing IP uses, then back in | 22:49 |
| wylde_ | BlackWeb: not if the traffic stays on your lan. Other than that....what genii said. | 22:49 |
| wilee-nilee | I'm all thumbs,lol | 22:49 |
| bekks | BlackWeb: Connect the second PC to the LAN IP of your box. | 22:49 |
| bekks | BlackWeb: No need to send traffic to your ISP. | 22:50 |
| BlackWeb | So I should configure FTP server to not use passive IP, Then point Local PC to the Servers LAN IP to Do transfers, Then after I'm done revert settings of FTP Server to use Passive IP Again? | 22:50 |
| Timvde | wilee-nilee: Oh, I might have got something :) I opened gnome-system-settings from terminal, and it says "failed to commit changes to dconf: (error code): Cannot open dconf database: infalid gvdb header | 22:50 |
| * Timvde googles in the meantime | 22:50 | |
| bekks | BlackWeb: Whats a passive IP? | 22:51 |
| bekks | BlackWeb: You are mixing up active/passive FTP with WAN/LAN IP. | 22:51 |
| Timvde | Meh, he's gone. Anyway, found it, yay :) | 22:52 |
| BlackWeb | So in order to have FTP Server accessible over WAN, I need to set it up with Passive IP, The Passive IP is the WAN IP of the Network.. So if WAN IP is 24.08.45.15 Then I configure FTP server to use Passive 24.08.45.15, But its Local IP is say 192.168.1.4, So I'm able to access it over WAN with the passive settings. But I want a LOCAL PC to access it thats on the SAME LAN, So Since passive is enabled I cant point Local PC to th | 22:54 |
| BlackWeb | e Servers Local IP I have to Point it to My WAN IP | 22:54 |
| bekks | BlackWeb: There is no such thing as "passive IP". | 22:55 |
| bekks | BlackWeb: Having a LAN IP of 192.168.1.4, configure your FTP client to connect to that IP, not to your WAN IP. | 22:56 |
| BlackWeb | Alright Sounds Good, Thanks :) | 22:56 |
| CH33ZBURGER | then open the ftp port on your router and point it to your internal ip | 22:57 |
| bekks | Wrong. | 22:57 |
| bekks | No need to touch the router at all. | 22:57 |
| BlackWeb | Alright Thanks Everyone :) | 22:59 |
| qin | BlackWeb: even better restrict ftp to accept only connection from 192.168.*.* pool. as long you do not need to access your server from "outside" internet | 22:59 |
| BlackWeb | qin through use of IPTABLES | 23:00 |
| CH33ZBURGER | he wants to access ftp from outside no? | 23:00 |
| bekks | CH33ZBURGER: No. | 23:00 |
| CH33ZBURGER | oh | 23:00 |
| bekks | CH33ZBURGER: He wants to access his FTP from another PC from the same network. | 23:01 |
| qin | BlackWeb: Yup, not sure if ftp config have masking option, well should. | 23:01 |

| natural | how do i move the apps bar on the right to the bottom of the screen? | 23:02 |
| xenland | is there a tutorial on installing boost 1.54.0 from source onto ubuntu 13+ | 23:03 |
| natural | sorry, i mean the bar on the left | 23:03 |
| xenland | natrual:none that i know of | 23:03 |
| xenland | no method i mean. | 23:04 |
| natural | darnit | 23:04 |
| kostkon | xenland, there is one but it's a hack | 23:04 |
| aquarius | Baffled. This machine (Ubuntu 12.04, upgraded just now from 9.10 via 10.04) has no window decorations. I have tried disabling and then re-enabling them in ccsm and it did not help. | 23:04 |
| natural | danget | 23:04 |
| natural | owell i'll just get used to the bar being on the left i guess | 23:04 |
| natural | how about the bar on the top? can i move that to the bottom? | 23:04 |
| aquarius | I believe my daughter may have applied a different window theme in 9.10; I have tried using myunity to switch window themes, but nothing has brought back the window decorations :( | 23:04 |
| Wednesday | natural, you can set the menu to hide and just install something like Docky or Cario-dock | 23:04 |
| jrib | aquarius: create a fresh new user and see if the issue persists | 23:05 |
| Wednesday | natural, maybe you can try right clicking and search for properties/settings or something | 23:05 |
| kostkon | natural, neither. both are locked in their positions | 23:05 |
| administor | This is another cool part of linux been able to chat with other members of community. | 23:05 |

| aquarius | jrib, good thought. (Does 12.04 not hav the Guest Session?) | 23:05 |
| natural | can I make the top bar translucent like the left bar? | 23:05 |
| aquarius | qin, I know, that's why I've upgraded it :) | 23:06 |

| Timvde | I don't use it myself, though, so haven't tested it | 23:09 |
| administor | Is there a game like test drive for linux? | 23:09 |
| aquarius | jrib, the issue *does* occur with a new account: I created the account in Users and Groups, and then switched to it with the Me Menu, and the new user's session has no window borders either. Interestingly, metacity --replace as qin suggested gives me windows with decorations correctly as expected, but... obviously that's not running unity then! | 23:10 |

| wilee-nilee | alastor__, I would not just purge all of them, you look to have games...etc, I would just not be running upgrades without realizing it's not a release, and making sure the ppa's are covered on the release....etc. Personally I never upgrade | 23:59 |
