| kangping | Could anyone please help me to set up bumblebee properly? This is giving me gray hair ;) | 00:02 |
| OerHeks | ironfoot495, all we know is "syntax error near unexpected token `" so what is the script you are running? | 00:02 |
| OldTexas | !bumblebee | 00:02 |
| kangping | OldTexas: does this mean you can help? Or are you sending me somewhere else? Sorry, haven't been on irc in years | 00:04 |
| OldTexas | kangping, there is a bot here that if you have and issue you can sometimes type !issue and get help. I was seeing if there was anything for you in the bot | 00:06 |
| OerHeks | kangping, this page is a good start https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee | 00:06 |
| kangping | OerHeks: have been there. Done that. But I always get a low graphics version, that throws me unto the command line | 00:07 |
| kangping | Purging bumblebees packages won't set me back to defaults either... So every time I want to try a solution I'm reinstalling the os | 00:08 |
| SunshineNFreedom | I should really switch back to ubuntu again... I enjoy this body cast they call windows though xD | 00:08 |
| OldTexas | ouch | 00:08 |

| kangping | Thanks OldTexas . I guess there wasn't anything in there, huh ;) | 00:08 |
| OldTexas | nothing came up, sorry | 00:09 |
| kangping | It seems like there are a billion problems and as many solutions. If I could just get back to the "regular" state running nouveau (or whatever it is)... That would already be a huge step in the right direction. | 00:10 |

| pmitros | What's the best way to share files between Ubuntu machines? I'd like to have some kind of mount. In an ideal case, it would be secure, reasonably fault-tolerant, and reasonably easy to set up and maintain (if it can reuse existing servers I have -- like ssh or http -- that's ideal; but something that it's own server is okay too). | 00:22 |

| jrib | pmitros: define "secure" | 00:22 |
| alpha_ | Ari : I installed that | 00:23 |
| pmitros | jrib: The key thing is that I don't want something remotely exploitable. If I install a server that has regular zero-days and issues like that, it's a big problem. The #2 -- and less important thing -- is that files are transferred in a cryptosecure manner. | 00:24 |

| Ari-Yang | alpha_, oh? the kernel 3.11 .deb? okay open up terminal and run uname -r what do you get? | 00:24 |
| jrib | pmitros: you're sending traffic over the internet (not just your lan)? | 00:24 |
| alpha_ | 3.11.1-031101-generic | 00:24 |
| pmitros | jrib: Something like sshfs is ideal; it doesn't open anything new -- but I've had stability issues with it with intermittent networks. | 00:25 |

| Ari-Yang | alpha_, okay, now are you using any proprietary wifi driver? like broadcam | 00:25 |
| pmitros | jrib: Major use case is on my LAN, but it'd be nice to have an off-site server for backups, in which case it'd be going over super-insecure internet. | 00:25 |
| alpha_ | no but my wifi LED always is on and it cant be off | 00:25 |
| knifes1234 | 3.5.0-40-generic | 00:25 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, no that's now what I mean... | 00:26 |
| jrib | pmitros: well either use sshfs or sftp or (setup nfs or samba and a vpn) | 00:26 |
| knifes1234 | haha | 00:26 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, chances are you aren't, go on ahead and reboot... the GRUB menu will appear, select ubuntu from it or wait 'til it times out | 00:26 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, after rebooting, come back here and tell me how it works out | 00:26 |
| k1l_ | knifes1234: could you please reduce the offtopic commands and stay focused on the technical support? | 00:27 |
| alpha_ | i rebooted | 00:27 |
| DesignerX | hi everyone | 00:27 |
| Avgva | hey | 00:27 |
| Avgva | what's up | 00:27 |
| alpha_ | first i installed the .deb kernel 3.11 and then i rebooted laptop | 00:27 |
| knifes1234 | hey | 00:27 |
| pmitros | jrib: The server is running ssh and nginx. nginx+https+digest auth would work well, if there's anything that does that. Advantage would be better tolerance for internet going down. | 00:27 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, oh you did? laptop not running hot anymore? type sensors in terminal and pastebin it for me | 00:28 |
| DesignerX | I need help with 'casper-rw file' .. I need more detaild info about it & how can I "Manually" have an ISO boot & detect casper-rw file ? | 00:28 |
| OpusContinuum | So what alternatives to ath5k wifi driver is there? I have a US dlink DWL-G510 Rev. B | 00:28 |
| pmitros | jrib: sshfs (and that's the only way I know to do an sftp mount as well) fails if the internet connection is momentarily down (or at least it did a few years back when I last tried it). | 00:28 |
| alpha_ | it seemt to be much cool | 00:29 |
| DesignerX | all guides say I need to format my USB & then use Universal installed fore linux & check the casper-rw option.. what If I already have ubuntu iso running from my USB, how can i create that file & start saving to it ? | 00:29 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, type dmesg | grep dpm in terminal and pastebin it | 00:29 |
| pmitros | Oh. Interesting sshfs now has a reconnect option! | 00:30 |
| knifes1234 | i install Ubuntu 12.10 it OK | 00:31 |
| alpha_ | Ari : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6117286/ | 00:31 |
| alpha_ | sonsor and latest expression | 00:31 |
| alpha_ | sensors* | 00:31 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, yep it worked, enjoy your non-heating laptop | 00:31 |
| alpha_ | is it normal ? | 00:31 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha, dpm initialized, dynamic power management | 00:32 |
| Ari-Yang | it worked | 00:32 |
| cortexman | can I extend /dev/sda1 in this gparted image to use all of the unallocated space? http://imagebin.org/index.php?mode=image&id=271119 somehow I need to get the unallocated space to be adjacent to /dev/sda1 | 00:32 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, also take a look at dmesg | grep power | 00:32 |
| pmitros | jrib: Thanks. | 00:32 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, take a look at this also: www.botchco.com/agd5f/?p=57 | 00:32 |
| hadwick | Hi all, i am running version 12.04. I recently suffered a power outage and now am having trouble booting. Right now the boot process is hanging at netbios name server. Any help? I'm not doing so well on Google. Thanks in advance. | 00:32 |
| alpha_ | Ari : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6117287/ | 00:33 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, okay, that's all, your laptop shouldn't heat up anymore | 00:33 |
| Ari-Yang | I'm off~ | 00:34 |
| Avgva | testing | 00:34 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, You might look here to see several options, it easier to do all this when you make the usb, you can have more than 4 gigs persistence if you have a usb big enough by using a partition. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD/Persistence#Creating_the_.22casper-rw.22_File_System | 00:34 |
| alpha_ | can it be more decreased ? | 00:34 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: ty, the plan is NOt to use a parition but to use a file which I can copy/move later to a differnt location | 00:35 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, Live usb's have their limitations though, no kernel upgrades it is just the iso and added installs or upgrades, and the casper will fill up and is not really cleanable efficiently. | 00:35 |
| BuJitsuBrown | hi how can i find the name of my sound card? | 00:36 |
| alpha_ | Ari : can it be more decreased ? | 00:36 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, Moving the casper makes no sense | 00:36 |
| whoever | hi all , I am tring to convert an mkv to iso with mkisfs and i keep getting the error that allow-limit-size is not specified the command i am usinag is mkisofs -dvd-video <infil> <outfile> can someone assist | 00:36 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, *shrugs* dunno | 00:36 |
| Ari-Yang | why? :| | 00:36 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: shouldnt copying the file have all the setting & changes made ? this way I can configur Ubuntu & copy the changes to many USBs/harddrives ? | 00:37 |
| alpha_ | because it's hot now 58 'C | 00:37 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, the point of DPM is so that the gpu clocks up when it's needed and clocked down when more power isn't needed,that will prevent unnecessary heating | 00:37 |
| alpha_ | i want to be about 45 'C | 00:37 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, pastebin me a new sensors output... | 00:38 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, what kind of laptop is this? core 2 duo? i3? i5? | 00:38 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, This is not an install but a live ISO, do a full install if you want that. a live environment has a lot of limitations. Theoretically possible yes, but not sure why one would want to even use it that way. | 00:38 |
| alpha_ | Ari : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6117300/ | 00:38 |
| alpha_ | Ari : Core i 5 3210-M --------- HP ProBook 4540 15.6" | 00:39 |
| Avgva | jaaadoooooooooo | 00:39 |
| Avgva | testing | 00:40 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: well, the 1st is the install size 1Gb vs 7+GB . Most of the required things are just internet access , teamviewer, Skype & text editor | 00:40 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, your laptop's temp is fine... look at your old sensors http://paste.ubuntu.com/6117208/ and your new one http://paste.ubuntu.com/6117300/ | 00:40 |
| Ari-Yang | your gpu is about 10-11 degrees less | 00:40 |
| k1l_ | Avgva: could you please stop that testing in this channel? | 00:40 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, Get a 8 gig or bigger usb and do a full install and you can clone it to another. That casper is the crux it fills up. | 00:40 |
| Avgva | alright sorry | 00:40 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: On a bigger US (32 GB), the only thing stopping me from a full install is not bieing able to install to a subfolder alonf side other linux distros | 00:40 |
| Adie | AMD or Nvidia GPU? | 00:40 |
| DesignerX | along * | 00:40 |
| Ari-Yang | Adie, AMD or nVidia for what? | 00:41 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, Along side I'm not sure what you mean. | 00:41 |
| BuJitsuBrown | hi how can i find the name of my sound card? | 00:41 |
| === |_ocke2 is now known as |_ocke | ||
| Adie | Ari-Yang, for ubuntu | 00:41 |
| Ari-Yang | if you mean what to get.... tbh I'd recommend nVidia for linux | 00:41 |
| Adie | kk | 00:41 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: having Uvuntu, Mint & Puppy on one USB for example | 00:41 |
| alpha_ | Ari : yes ... thanks ... but what does temp6 = 127 mean ? | 00:41 |
| Ari-Yang | Adie, though AMD has better open source support right now | 00:41 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, Yes you can multiple live or multiple installs. | 00:42 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, tbh I'm not sure what temp6 is :V | 00:42 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: I cant find a way to install Ubuntu in a subfolder on my USB .. | 00:42 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: oh ! any links please ;) | 00:42 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, it looks like it will always be that high... temp1-5 are no where neat hitting critical, so that's good | 00:42 |
| alpha_ | Ari : how can i be a expert like you about linux ? | 00:42 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, You could have a install and boot live ISO's with grub, what links exactly? | 00:43 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, lol I'm no expert at all, I'm still learning myself xD Though, to be better, do a lot of googling and don't be afraid to ask questions. | 00:43 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, you could also hang around here to, you'll learn a lot. | 00:43 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: installing more then one distro on one USB/1Partition .. I think it will mean having each distro in a subfolder | 00:44 |
| alpha_ | Ari : Do you know about programming ? | 00:44 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, I know a little... but I'm still learning myself. | 00:44 |
| alpha_ | ok | 00:44 |
| alpha_ | Ari : Can I add You ? | 00:44 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, btw you could join #ubuntu-offtopic for offtopic discussions etc., you can say that's the "lounge area" | 00:45 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, add me on what? | 00:45 |
| alpha_ | on IRC - Xchat | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, here is my favorite multi live to start with. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ On a usb dual bopoting is the same as a hard drive you just have to make sure grub is put in its mbr. | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | booting* | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, Do you know how to dualboot? | 00:46 |
| Ari-Yang | alpha_, uh, sure... I'm not sure how you would do that, but on hexchat it looks like you can just right click on the nick and select "add friend" | 00:46 |
| Ari-Yang | so you'd right click on my nickname... | 00:46 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: I use grub4dos .. I still need to learn more how to add entries to the menu list | 00:46 |
| DesignerX | menu.lst * | 00:47 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, grub4dos is a windows use you don;t need it in linux. | 00:47 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: my USN is fat32, I though I need to use it for such filesystem ? & isnt the menu.lst work the same? | 00:47 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, menu.lst is grub legacy we have grub 2 now i has the os-prober it finds the other OS's. | 00:47 |
| DesignerX | woow .. ok, guess time to get that | 00:48 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, fat32 is for ISO's you would use ext4 or 3 for full installs. | 00:48 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, If you have a ubuntu instal I would just use the multisystem iso loader in general, you can load iso till the usb is full. | 00:49 |
| wilee-nilee | gotta reboot back to linux | 00:51 |

| krys | hi guys. i'm sitting in the middle of a university course on unix. i have no idea what i'm doing. can anyone point to any explanations? | 00:59 |
| DesignerX | Now I have most details needed to create a new Multiboot USB with Grub 2 | 00:59 |
| nibalizer | uh | 00:59 |
| nibalizer | krys: man bash | 00:59 |
| DesignerX | will using Puppy slacko to create the Grub2 is the same ? | 00:59 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, multiboot ISO's or installs? | 00:59 |
| DesignerX | for now ISO's | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, You have a ubuntu install perchance? | 01:00 |
| krys | i do not have a CD drive to install ubuntu from | 01:00 |
| DesignerX | Only in a VM, which I can connect the USB to it if needed | 01:00 |
| krys | or a USB | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | DesignerX, Use this from the vm. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ | 01:01 |
| wilee-nilee | much easier, use gparted to format the usb to fat32 is all. | 01:01 |
| wilee-nilee | easy as pie, loads the iso and grub on each iso install | 01:02 |
| wilee-nilee | krys, For help you need to be specific is all. | 01:03 |
| DesignerX | wilee-nilee: ty very very much .. alot of useful info , time for me to test & get back to you with more problems lolz :D | 01:04 |
| wilee-nilee | cool, enjoy | 01:04 |
| DesignerX | krys: not sure exactly what you need but this may help ? http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/ | 01:05 |
| wilee-nilee | krys, You could do a vm of ubuntu if needed. | 01:05 |
| === kling is now known as furoido | ||
| wilee-nilee | krys, unix and linux are similiar in many ways but different though, there are unix channels on freenode. | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis | that Multiboot is very handy at pendrivelinux. it does pull in a LOT of dependencies to get it up on ubuntu. | 01:06 |
| krys | thanks DesignerX. i don't know how to PM! | 01:06 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_Willis, I don't see any dependencies added on a ubuntu desktop install, or the shell install, not sure what you mean. | 01:08 |
| wilee-nilee | it does a apt update though | 01:08 |
| wilee-nilee | maybe I missed them. lol | 01:08 |
| krys | i'd like an installation from a partitioned drive. is this possible? (using that instead of CD/USB) | 01:09 |
| wilee-nilee | krys, really your best tool is having a cd or usb overall. | 01:09 |
| wilee-nilee | it can fix any number of problems | 01:10 |
| wilee-nilee | without this you are driving without a spare | 01:10 |
| krys | thanks. i'll grab a USB sometime tomorrow | 01:11 |
| krys | or a CD | 01:11 |
| wilee-nilee | krys, Check the ISO size chances are you needa dvd | 01:12 |
| krys | ISO size? | 01:12 |
| wilee-nilee | usb is best though in general | 01:12 |
| wilee-nilee | krys, YOu download ubuntu in a ISO format, it has been slightly bigger thaan a cd's limit for several releases is all. | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis | wilee-nilee: im thinking of --> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ 'multisystem' ;) | 01:13 |
| krys | wilee-nilee, ok | 01:14 |
| krys | i will get a USB! thanks | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis | krys: you can set up grub and iso files to boot from a Hard drive and install to a differnt hard drive I do that with my systenms and a large /boot/ partition | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis | krys: this way i have like a 'live-cd-recovery' entry in grub so i can boot and fix things, or try other live cds | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis | or reinstall.. quickly | 01:15 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_Willis, I never noticed any dependencies when I install it using my gnome shell, however I see the apt update, maybe man fanboi use is blind to them. ;) | 01:15 |
| wilee-nilee | my* | 01:15 |
| krys | Dr_Willis: are there any risks to your current hard drive? | 01:15 |
| Dr_Willis | wilee-nilee: i installed it the other day on a clean ubuntu install. pulled in several dozen packages about 200+mb total. I noticed because i was teathered to my phone | 01:15 |

| Dr_Willis | krys: my /boot/ was on its own partion. i was sure to tell the installer to install to the OTHER hard drive. | 01:16 |
| Dongitstu | also my ubuntu distro won't connect to the internet | 01:16 |

| balazs_ | Hi. Does anyone know a tool to measure how much time one spends in front of the computer. Something like all the periods when there was a keyboard or mouse activity. Say 2 minutes idleness would mean that you're not in front of the computer. | 01:35 |
| hamnstar | from what ive used, anyway | 01:35 |
| furoido | guys.. can you recommend a photo handler app? | 01:35 |
| lotuspsychje | hamnstar: tnx for feedback mate | 01:36 |
| hamnstar | nerdtron: removing the 70-persistent-net file + reboot didn't seem to do anything | 01:36 |

| bazhang | furoido, shotwell | 01:37 |
| somsip | balazs_: workrave might give you what you want | 01:37 |
| furoido | bazhang, does it resize uploads? | 01:37 |
| bazhang | furoido, uploads to where | 01:37 |
| balazs_ | somsip: thans; checking it out | 01:38 |
| furoido | i mean like when you upload large photos on the web, it should be resize to smaller size | 01:38 |
| furoido | bazhang, something like facebook upload | 01:39 |
| Rallias | So... umm... I just accidently stumbled upon a major security oversight with ubuntu's paid software system... who's the proper person to notify? | 01:39 |
| hamnstar | hmmm.... now im seeing arp replies but still get destination unreachable on ping's.... | 01:39 |
| bazhang | furoido, no idea sorry | 01:39 |
| bazhang | Rallias, file a bug | 01:39 |
| bazhang | !bug | Rallias | 01:39 |

| === FreakingTea is now known as FreakingStuff | ||
| lotuspsychje | furoido: like bazhang says, you can resize a picture with shotwell, then upload it to your fb | 01:42 |
| hamnstar | lotuspsychje: my ubuntu server install cant respond/get pings on my LAN... I only have two hosts on a switch, and i can see the arp requests and replies, but im still getting "Destination host unreachable" | 01:42 |
| lotuspsychje | hamnstar: you might wanna try asking in #ubuntu-server or the ##networking guys | 01:42 |
| hamnstar | lotuspsyche: thanks, more brains to pick :) | 01:44 |
| lotuspsychje | hamnstar: maybe if you detail your LAN layout someone might understand better where you want to go? | 01:45 |
| lotuspsychje | hamnstar: other hosts are win or ubuntu? | 01:46 |
| === notapuff is now known as puffin | ||
| hamnstar | lotuspyschje: one host is ubu server 12.04, other is ubu desktop 12.04... LAN is distilled to the simplest, 2 hosts on a layer-2 dumb switch | 01:47 |
| lotuspsychje | hamnstar: firewall or router block? | 01:47 |
| furoido | lotuspsychje, what i mean is, when you upload a photo, it would automatically be resized.. no need for facebook thing | 01:48 |
| hamnstar | lotuspsyche: trying with a live cd on the offending host now to rule out hardware issues.... one sec, let me flush iptables and try again | 01:48 |
| lotuspsychje | furoido: maybe this can help? http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/upload-photos-videos-to-facebook-from-ubuntu-desktop/ | 01:53 |

| hipitihop | If I have a mount .e.g. /media/fs_share which was provided by a VirtualBox shared folder, but I need sudo to see it, what is the correct way to gain normal user access to that mount. i..e should I mount /media/fs_share to /home/<user>/<anothermount> or should I change ownership of /media/fs_share or some other way. What is the correct linux way | 02:02 |
| IrcDroidClient | I installed ubuntu over windows but did not format the recovery partition. on rebooting I get the windows recovery screen. do I need to remove the recovery partition as well? | 02:03 |
| reisio | hipitihop: chown or chmod | 02:03 |
| reisio | hipitihop: recursively, if required | 02:03 |
| reisio | hipitihop: or if you're using /etc/fstab (you probably aren't), you can set particular opts | 02:03 |
| pepper_chico | lotuspsychje, will try it now | 02:04 |
| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, This happen to be W8 you removed? | 02:04 |
| IrcDroidClient | wilee-nilee yes | 02:04 |
| Darkening | So... I dual boot windows 7 and xubuntu, I was trying to start up windows earlier today and it froze a couple of times on the windows symbol, so, the next time I started it up I did something dumb and ran the windows startup repair thing it offered me, after it rebooted all I got was a black screen saying, "No such partition, Grub rescue>" and I really have no idea what to do about this... | 02:04 |
| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, You most likely have uefi setup, did you know that? | 02:04 |
| IrcDroidClient | yes. I installed with legacy mode enabled | 02:05 |

| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, Cool, we had a user here yesterday who did this but had to wipe the HD and format it to msdos to get a install, I'm not sure removing just the recovery partition is the answer here. | 02:08 |
| IrcDroidClient | @wilee-nilee you mean I'll have to do a fresh install with a full wipe? | 02:09 |
| Dr_Willis | and by full wipe - we mean zeroing out the drive :) | 02:09 |
| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, I'm not sure to be honest I have not had to mess with a uefi computer yet, luckily. | 02:09 |

| nerssi7 | My wireless card won't wake after my computer comes out of standby. I've looked up solutions but none of them have worked. I think my case is overcomplicated because I also use the ndiswrapper driver (because the normal one freezes the computer when it's on battery power). Can anyone help? This is on Linux Mint btw, but people on Ubuntu apparently have the same problem when dealing with Realtek hardware. | 02:11 |
| wilee-nilee | sure I like coffee more tha tea. | 02:11 |
| IrcDroidClient | okay. will definitely do that today. good thing its a fresh install. | 02:11 |
| lotuspsychje | wilee-nilee: ive formatted one win8 machine lately with uefi and ubuntu installed out of the box, even no bios changement needed (for that machine) | 02:11 |
| IrcDroidClient | @wilee-nilee and @Dr_Willis thanks :) | 02:11 |
| Darkening | how do I use that bootrepair thing if I can't get into my actual os? | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | Darkening, Live cd | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Darkening: you use a Live cd - theres even boot repair cd's that have it included | 02:12 |

| Dr_Willis | Darkening: theres also a ubuntu secure remix that has it included | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | lotuspsychje, Cool, the user removed the W8 OS is all, The problem I have seen with these uefi setuos is the manufacturers versions of them it seems. | 02:13 |
| lotuspsychje | nerssi7: we can recommend you installing an ubuntu version from topic | 02:13 |

| IrcDroidClient | mine boots only after I select boot options and select ubuntu. else it tries to boot windows by default every time | 02:13 |
| delinquentme | overclucker, so I just realized that I want to disconnect from the session ... and still have the master machine logging the output from the slave ... after I've killed the SSH connection I accessed the master machine with | 02:13 |
| lotuspsychje | IrcDroidClient: did you disable secure boot from bios? | 02:14 |
| nerssi7 | ubottu: the Linux mint people have been very unhelpful unfortunately. The reason I use Linux Mint is because it's extremely lite on my low powered netbook. Ubuntu didn't run very well. | 02:14 |
| ubottu | nerssi7: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:14 |
| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, I would use it as is if it were me unless you have the W8 OS backed up, you never know if you might want to get rid of it with W8 back on. | 02:14 |
| lotuspsychje | nerssi7: try lubuntu or xubuntu | 02:14 |
| IrcDroidClient | @lotuspsychje yes I did. a | 02:15 |
| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, You can tab complete nicks. | 02:15 |
| IrcDroidClient | enabled legacy support too | 02:15 |
| nerssi7 | do lubuntu or xubuntu have something as minimal as the mate desktop I can use with mint? | 02:15 |
| IrcDroidClient | @wilee-nilee for some reason my nick isn't showing | 02:16 |
| lotuspsychje | nerssi7: yes they are very low resources | 02:16 |
| wilee-nilee | nerssi7, No mate, but cinnamon is in the raring repos. | 02:16 |
| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, others nicks I mean | 02:16 |
| nerssi7 | wilee-nilee: isn't cinnamon the heaviest desktop manager? | 02:17 |
| wilee-nilee | nerssi7, NO idea I used it for 5 min just to see it, never been a mint user. | 02:17 |
| lotuspsychje | neither do i | 02:17 |
| IrcDroidClient | @wilee-nilee I'm sorry I don't understand :) | 02:17 |
| wilee-nilee | lubuntu is the lightest or its source lxde | 02:18 |
| nerssi7 | ok I'll look into it | 02:18 |
| wilee-nilee | !tab | IrcDroidClient we don't use @ | 02:18 |

| wilee-nilee | nerssi7, There are even lighter desktops, but these are canonical release de's | 02:19 |
| IrcDroidClient | wilee-nilee okay. sorry :) my bad. I'm typing with a phone though | 02:19 |
| nerssi7 | There's nothing really wrong with Linux Mint, it's probably my favourite I've used so far (other than Debian), it's just this stupid wireless card problem. And I'm not convinced that it will be different on any other distro so I'm a bit reluctant to redo everything :( | 02:19 |
| wilee-nilee | IrcDroidClient, No problem just wanted you to know the options. ;) | 02:19 |
| wilee-nilee | nerssi7, Never said there was I used ubuntu long before mint was around is all. | 02:20 |
| IrcDroidClient | wilee-nilee do you know how I can make my nick show? | 02:21 |

| Sand|away | Im using Windows XP atm | 02:24 |
| nerssi7 | because my main machine is OSX (on it right now) and I remotely program with my old netbook, I just liked having Linux because of how similar it is to OSX | 02:24 |
| nerssi7 | and there's a lot of stuff that I really don't like about Windows | 02:24 |

| boeyc | grub rescue > sudo update-grub . . . unknown command sudo | 02:34 |
| boeyc | not sure what it does that | 02:34 |
| boeyc | i boot up and all i see is grub rescue | 02:34 |
| wilee-nilee | boeyc, You would have to chroot to run that and you have to load the bootloader as well, use the bootrepair app. | 02:35 |

| ubottu | LXDE ( http://lxde.org/ ) is the Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment used by !Lubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop ». See http://lubuntu.net/ for more information, and join #lubuntu for support. | 02:46 |
| Ari-Yang | ^ try that f00bar80 | 02:46 |
| boeyc | wilee-nilee, i still have the same problem I cannot run sudo grub-install /dev/XXX. plus I am on 12.04 and installed ubuntu alongside windows not vice versa | 02:46 |
| chsados | yay i fixed it wilee-nilee :D | 02:46 |
| boeyc | wilee-nilee, i did try sudo apt-get install grub which worked | 02:47 |
| boeyc | but same issue | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | i tend to use lxde/lubuntu or xfce/xubuntu on my low end machines. f00bar80 - but my low end box's are netbooks that are 2+ yrs old. so are very low end by todays standards | 02:47 |
| chsados | Dr_Willis: you ever get xbmc working on 2nd screen? | 02:47 |
| boeyc | plus I had to use the "try ubuntu option" when it loaded | 02:47 |
| boeyc | didnt want to reinstall | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | chsados: im on 13.10 and its acting very differntly then how it worked on 12.x | 02:47 |
| Ari-Yang | f00bar80, type sudo apt-get install lxde in terminal | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | chsados: theres some bugs going oin in the nvidia drivers/twinview it seems with some apps missbehaveing | 02:47 |
| Ari-Yang | logout and switch DEs in the login box... | 02:47 |
| Ari-Yang | ^ f00bar80 | 02:47 |
| chsados | ahh i see | 02:47 |
| chsados | im just dealing with it in window mode at the moment - will do further research on the weekend | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | chsados: i full screen an app - or flash video or other apps.. and they spread out across both monitors. :) thats not how they are supposed to behave. | 02:48 |
| boeyc | wilee-nilee, it says error cannot find a device for boot/grub (is /dev mounted?) | 02:48 |
| chsados | yea thats odd | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | chsados: thats how it used to behave if i dident have twinview enabled. years ago. | 02:49 |
| f00bar80 | Ari-Yang, i tried and installed lubunutu-desktop , but got an error and nothing changed | 02:49 |
| OldTexas | Anything here that means anything to anyone? ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready | 02:50 |
| wilee-nilee | boeyc, when? | 02:50 |
| wylde | OldTexas: the netcard hasn't initialized or is busy. At least that what I interperate that as. :) | 02:51 |
| Ari-Yang | f00bar80, what error? pastebin the output | 02:51 |
| boeyc | wilee-nilee, sudo grub-install /dev/XXX. | 02:51 |
| f00bar80 | i installed lxde , so now what? should i reboot? | 02:52 |
| wilee-nilee | boeyc, To run the grub install you have to be in the installed OS or chrooted in. Is this a uefi installed W7? | 02:52 |
| boeyc | wilee-nilee, not sure what uefi is, but i had this copy of windows for 2 years now. | 02:53 |
| Ari-Yang | f00bar80, no... | 02:53 |
| Ari-Yang | just log out of your current session, in the login box there should be an icon | 02:53 |
| Ari-Yang | click on it and select LXDE from there | 02:53 |
| boeyc | wilee-nilee, all i did was use a ubuntu cd to install ubuntu...restarted the computer and now stuck ing this situation | 02:53 |
| wilee-nilee | boeyc, from where are you running sudo grub-install /dev/XXX I am assuming the XXX is sda or something, and has to be run from the install or a chroot from the live cd. | 02:54 |
| boeyc | i run the live cd, and selected try ubuntu | 02:55 |
| boeyc | wilee-nilee, i run the live cd, and selected try ubuntu | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | boeyc: you may want to try the boot-repair tool | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 02:56 |
| nerdtron | boeyc, run the live cd and install the boot-repair | 02:56 |
| wilee-nilee | boeyc, sudo grub-install /dev/XXX canj't just be run from the live cd without preparation the XXX is foo for the mbr as well, use the bootrepair as suggested | 02:56 |
| boeyc | the cd starts and just asks for try ubuntu or install ubuntu if i boot via cd? | 02:57 |
| nerdtron | boeyc, try ubuntu | 02:57 |
| Dr_Willis | you would select 'try' then follow the directions at the url given above | 02:57 |
| wilee-nilee | boeyc, Choose try and load the bootrepair at the desktop. | 02:57 |
| boeyc | ok | 02:57 |
| king-crimson | ubuntu 13.04 here :D | 02:57 |
| boeyc | thank you | 02:57 |
| nerdtron | when you are on the desktop, install the boot-repair utility from the link of Dr_Willis | 02:57 |
| fellayaboy | is their anyway to get facebook video chat working in ubuntu? | 02:58 |

| Ari-Yang | al_la, I do not recommend installing the driver from ATI's site... too risky. you should install it from ubuntu's repos instead. | 04:00 |
| Ari-Yang | you can select it from 'Additional Drivers' tab from software sources | 04:00 |
| al_la | lotuspsychje Ari-Yang:in installing the fglrx proprietary driver, is it really as easy as just cmd line installing that package from the repo? If I remove this, will ubuntu default back to the radeon open source driver? the help file (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI) is not too helpful | 04:00 |
| qin | Ofek: /topic may enrich you with knoledge that it is Ubuntu support. | 04:01 |
| Ofek | omg nano worked! | 04:01 |
| al_la | flotuspsychje Ari-Yang: in fact, I don't even see fglrx-installer as a package as the site mentions | 04:01 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, in terminal type apt-cache search fglrx-amdcccle | 04:01 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, you most likely aren't reading carefully, I used that page to install fglrx myself. | 04:02 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, so what do you get after searching for fglrx-amdcccle in terminal? | 04:02 |
| Ari-Yang | if you see fglrx-amdcccle or fglrx-amdcccle pick either one, and install it with sudo apt-get install | 04:02 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, I'm warning you, fglrx may cause problems for you :| | 04:03 |
| al_la | Ari-Yang: I see fglrx-amdcccle for the catalyst control center. the website just lists 'fglrx-installer' which I couldn't find. Does ubuntu gracefully roll back to radeon driver if I purge fglrx-amdcccle after experimenting? | 04:03 |
| Ofek | last question, what is the nano command to save? ^WriteOut ? | 04:04 |
| qin | Ofek: heeh | 04:04 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, you can simply select the open source radeon and apply changes in 'Additional Drivers' from software sources | 04:04 |
| qin | Ofek: ctrl-x | 04:04 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, do it from there.. | 04:04 |
| al_la | Ari-Yang: ah, perfect, thanks for the help | 04:04 |
| Ofek | ^x says exit | 04:04 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, you're welcome, lets say if you do go back to the open source radeon and apply changes, run sudo apt-get purge flgrx* then proceed with rebooting. | 04:05 |
| qin | Ofek: Ubuntu with tor may get you some support, help, same disrto, Whonix will not | 04:05 |

| al_la | Ari-Yang: radeon x1950 | 04:05 |
| qin | Ofek: Confirm exit? Y | 04:06 |
| Ofek | ah ty | 04:06 |
| Ari-Yang | al_la, oh okay... You might actually be fine with fglrx then... good luck | 04:06 |
| al_la | Ari-Yang: will find out soon, I'm off to experiment! Thanks again for the help. | 04:07 |

| chiques | It never fails, tried to install Nvidia drivers on my new 64 bit install , rebooted and booted into a Kernel Panic Error | 04:34 |
| Ofek_ | is the a command to install pkgsrc on linux or must I dl it directly 1st? | 04:34 |
| Ofek_ | ^there | 04:35 |
| qin | Ofek_: You swapped to Ubuntu already? | 04:35 |
| Ofek_ | no lol | 04:35 |
| Ofek_ | still Whonix | 04:35 |
| xmetal | at the risk of being OT ... i think "whonix" sounds like the Dr. Seuss distro of Linux | 04:37 |
| Ofek_ | to get latest versions of proxychains one must use pkgsrc framework | 04:37 |
| Ofek_ | I've read at least | 04:37 |
| tucemiux | chiques, oh no! what card do you have ? | 04:38 |
| Ofek_ | any of u ever use pkgsrc? | 04:38 |
| chiques | tucemiux, Onboard Nvidia | 04:39 |

| reisio | green eggs and unix | 04:39 |
| oaulakh | anyone know to braek ubuntu passwd | 04:39 |

| cfhowlett | !details|shepherdshift1, | 05:17 |
| ubottu | shepherdshift1,: 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 ..." | 05:17 |
| Yowl | wilee-nilee: I was asking "cpu1" about his problem | 05:18 |
| PN2 | hi anyone give information about cronjob | 05:18 |
| Yowl | cpu1: You mean that is the speed the CPU is rated at, are you sure it's not a bios issue? | 05:19 |
| Psil0Cybin | hey guys whats the proper way of mounting something thats a portable hard drive in lets say /media | 05:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | so when i want to mount id do | 05:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | sudo mount /media/Area51 (name of my drive) | 05:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | and when i want to unmount i do | 05:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | sudo umount | 05:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | ? | 05:20 |
| Yowl | You can just right click it | 05:20 |
| TradeFortress | got a web server | 05:20 |
| TradeFortress | " => / is using 86.9% of 21.17GB | 05:20 |
| TradeFortress | " | 05:20 |
| Yowl | to unmount | 05:20 |
| Yowl | And often they automount when you put em in | 05:21 |
| TradeFortress | du --max-depth=1 -h /, shows that / is using 19G.. | 05:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | i was playing around with samba, and it made it auto mount my drive, so i had to in config change it to noautomount or what ever for samba and because of that | 05:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | it does not mount my drive properly automatically | 05:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | it says i must be root to mount | 05:21 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: But sudo unmount won't work because it needs a specificationof what drive to unmount | 05:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | Yowl can i find out what file is making my drive not auto mount like before | 05:22 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: Then you have a problem, and it's not the command you are using | 05:22 |
| Psil0Cybin | and cause these problems | 05:22 |
| cpu1 | Yowl It may be a bios issue, I because /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq does not exists, I just read in the forums have a list reasons (If it does not exist, you may need to go to the BIOS and turn on EIST and any other C and P state control and visibility) | 05:23 |
| Yowl | well focus on whats causing the the root issue, then auto might work itself out. | 05:23 |
| cpu1 | Thanks guys for your help | 05:24 |
| wilee-nilee | Yowl, Ah, hard to tell without a nick, some users get ignores here so we do not see all posts. | 05:24 |
| shepherdshift1 | thank you. ubuntu is boots bios then goes either to purple screen, black screen (sometimes with blinking cursor, sometimes without), then hangs. REISUB was not working, had to power cycle. i booted from a livecd and ran e2fsk on dev/sda, it gave an output i couldnt read before it logged me out and froze. i went into tty, logged in, rebooted to livecd again. went into gparted... and my sda dev was not there. ran fdisk -l.. | 05:25 |
| Psil0Cybin | yowl | 05:25 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: Maybe ask wilee about your root issue | 05:25 |
| Psil0Cybin | i get this problem | 05:25 |
| Psil0Cybin | Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: | 05:25 |
| Psil0Cybin | mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on /media/Area51 | 05:25 |

| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:25 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: Then maybe it's already mounted... | 05:25 |
| Psil0Cybin | but it wont let me see it through the file manager | 05:25 |
| Psil0Cybin | thats what i get when i click on the drive. | 05:25 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: Go to media/area51 and look for it | 05:26 |
| Yowl | ah | 05:26 |
| Psil0Cybin | empty | 05:26 |
| Yowl | now I see why you wanted a unmount command | 05:26 |
| jinzougen | for for any cross-posting, but #kubuntu seems kind of quiet. I'm trying to get ibus working for hangul input in kubuntu 13.04. but I'm having lots of problems, can someone help? | 05:26 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: And the drive you are trying to mount isn't empty/blank? | 05:26 |
| Psil0Cybin | is not | 05:27 |
| Psil0Cybin | Yowl | 05:28 |
| Psil0Cybin | like i have to type | 05:28 |
| Psil0Cybin | sudo mount /media/Area51 | 05:28 |
| Psil0Cybin | to view my drive | 05:28 |
| Psil0Cybin | and then i want to know how to unmount it because it does not work from the icon | 05:28 |
| overclucker | sudo umount /media/Area51 | 05:29 |
| Yowl | yeah of course | 05:29 |
| Yowl | it seems its mounted under special permission restriction | 05:29 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: So did overclucks command work? | 05:29 |
| Psil0Cybin | yea that worked | 05:30 |
| Psil0Cybin | sudo umount | 05:30 |
| Psil0Cybin | how can i fix this though so i can do what i did before | 05:30 |
| Psil0Cybin | like eject by icon | 05:30 |
| Yowl | well it should automount like normal next boot would be my guess | 05:30 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, sda dev? sda is the HD | 05:30 |
| shepherdshift1 | yes | 05:31 |
| Yowl | and ejectable by icon | 05:31 |
| Yowl | after mounted | 05:31 |
| Yowl | So just mount it where you want it, but don't use sudo | 05:31 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, can you elaborate on that dev would e in a partition | 05:31 |
| wilee-nilee | be* | 05:31 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, Is gparted showing unallocated? | 05:32 |
| shepherdshift1 | uh.. im not sure | 05:33 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: Are you good now? | 05:33 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, is sda dev short for a OS? | 05:33 |
| shepherdshift1 | no its the hard drive | 05:33 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, So is the HD not showing? | 05:34 |
| shepherdshift1 | correct | 05:34 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, Ah, have you tried unplugging it the back in, was it failing? | 05:34 |
| wilee-nilee | then* | 05:34 |
| shepherdshift1 | its an internal drive in a netbook | 05:34 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, This is gparted from a live cd? | 05:35 |
| shepherdshift1 | its the boot drive | 05:35 |
| shepherdshift1 | yes | 05:35 |
| wilee-nilee | shepherdshift1, On all my netbooks and laptops it is 2 screws to access | 05:35 |
| shepherdshift1 | ok.. i'm on the live cd right now... ill have to log off and back in again | 05:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | but when i unplug Yowl | 05:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | and plug the portable hard drive back | 05:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | i have the same problem | 05:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | i does not auto mount | 05:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | it shows the drive but its grey out | 05:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | and i get that same error message. | 05:36 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | when i click on it through the file maanger. | 05:36 |
| shepherdshift1 | back in a bit for an update | 05:37 |
| wilee-nilee | cool | 05:37 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: So it's automounting with sudo restriction. Do sudo unmount media/area51 then mount media/area51 please | 05:37 |
| Psil0Cybin | says unmount command not found | 05:38 |
| Psil0Cybin | so then umount | 05:38 |
| Yowl | That way you unmount it, then mount it back in without sudo, and without sudo, hopefully it will be regularly accessible through file manager | 05:38 |
| === jack is now known as Guest35857 | ||
| Psil0Cybin | okay i did sudo umount | 05:38 |
| Psil0Cybin | now | 05:38 |
| Psil0Cybin | now | 05:39 |
| Psil0Cybin | after i mounted it though on the file manager the eject icon disappeared | 05:39 |
| Yowl | so its mounted now, and you can access it now? | 05:39 |
| Psil0Cybin | yes | 05:39 |
| Psil0Cybin | i can access it | 05:39 |
| Yowl | cool | 05:39 |
| Psil0Cybin | but i cannot eject it normally | 05:39 |
| Psil0Cybin | like i would usually with an eject icon on the side | 05:40 |
| Yowl | Maybe some funky software from the external drives causing this issue | 05:40 |
| === Onixs_ is now known as Onixs | ||
| Yowl | But I don't believe it would be too risky just to pull it out without unmounting | 05:40 |
| Yowl | as long as its not being used at the time | 05:40 |
| Yowl | But I am no expert, so you might ask someone else | 05:41 |
| Yowl | can you unmount it with command? | 05:41 |
| overclucker | Psil0Cybin: also your answer might be somewhere in here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB | 05:41 |
| Psil0Cybin | Yowl, i pulled it out and plugged it back in and im ahving the same issue the drive appeared (grey outed) and i cannot view it it says i have to be root to mount | 05:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | so now im forced to run those commands again. | 05:42 |
| Yowl | Well my guess would be firmware or software problems of the HDD | 05:42 |
| Yowl | probably not meant to run with linux like so many things | 05:43 |
| Yowl | But you might check their website for stuff | 05:43 |
| Yowl | or call the company tech support line (probably won't be useful, but worth a try) | 05:43 |
| overclucker | Psil0Cybin: the article link I sent you should have all you need to know to have to get the disk to automount when plugged in | 05:44 |
| Yowl | Otherwise just get use to running the commands, have them ready in a file, like notpad or something | 05:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | im looking @it overclucker | 05:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | thanks let me get back to you guys | 05:44 |
| Yowl | well sounds like overclucker knows more, so I will leave you to it | 05:45 |
| overclucker | Psil0Cybin: what mode is the partition mounted as when you type 'mount' in console? | 05:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | how can i find otu | 05:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | mount /media/Area51 | 05:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | ? | 05:45 |
| overclucker | Psil0Cybin: just mount by itself | 05:45 |
| Yowl | definitely not | 05:45 |
| overclucker | no arguments | 05:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | overclucker ? | 05:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | i get | 05:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: | 05:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdc1 is already mounted on /media/Area51 | 05:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | mount failed | 05:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | . | 05:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | when i plug it in and try to access it. | 05:46 |
| overclucker | Psil0Cybin: I mean only type 'mount' <ENTER> with no arguments | 05:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | /dev/sdc1 on /media/Area51 type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096) | 05:47 |
| Yowl | heh, I thought you were telling us not to argue : - p | 05:48 |
| overclucker | Yowl: erm | 05:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | the problem is i installed samba and tried to get samba to share the hard drive instead when i turned off the laptop i got it always trying to MOUNT it even if the drive is not plugged in so someone here told me to type in a command to stop auto mounting it | 05:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | im wondering if i can delete some file and it will let it auto mount | 05:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | or treat it like an unfamiliour drive | 05:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | like it used too | 05:49 |
| overclucker | Psil0Cybin: when does it automount? only on boot? | 05:51 |
| Yowl | seems when plugged in | 05:51 |
| Yowl | Psil0Cybin: What is samba for? | 05:52 |
| Psil0Cybin | overclucker, it used to automount on boot before!! and i set some option to turn that off | 05:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | and now i noticed it did this | 05:54 |
| Psil0Cybin | but i cannot figure out what otpion i changed | 05:54 |
| nechko | hey guys, i was wondering is adding discard, noatime, nodiratime enough to spare SSD life and enable TRIM ? | 05:54 |
| nechko | adding to fstab | 05:54 |
| reisio | it's weird how the people who can afford SSDs are so worried about their lifespans | 05:55 |
| nechko | haha :) | 05:55 |
| nechko | well its not like i bought it easy | 05:55 |
| nechko | :D | 05:55 |
| reisio | it's also weird how they make SSDs larger than 30GB, though | 05:55 |
| reisio | or rather, how ones only 30GB are so hard to get | 05:56 |
| cfhowlett | nechko, agree with reisio. set up a regular image cloning / backup system and go on about your day. Like HDD's, SSD's will fail. No magic bullet will prevent it, so plan ahead. | 05:56 |
| reisio | well just put the OS on the SSD | 05:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | sigh | 05:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | maybe | 05:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | there is a file | 05:56 |
| reisio | it's all backed up in a million distro mirrors already | 05:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | somewhere that sets settings for each mount? | 05:56 |
| overclucker | Psil0Cybin: did you add an entry to /etc/fstab ? | 05:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | perhaps | 05:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | that looks familiour | 05:56 |
| reisio | anyways, this isn't the place to talk about SSD magic | 05:56 |
| reisio | try ##linux | 05:56 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:56 |

| cfhowlett | !lts|dkk, | 06:06 |
| ubottu | dkk,: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) | 06:06 |
| BostonSounds | Indeed | 06:06 |
| UbberJedi | wow | 06:07 |
| dkk | i mean say raring 13.04. if in 2015, there will be no support for update? bug fix? | 06:07 |
| cfhowlett | dkk, read more. LTS releases have 5 year support spans. NON LTS do not. | 06:08 |

| SuperLag | I hosed GRUB on my system, and I'm trying to fix it, and I know /dev/sda1 was my bootable partition before. But when I do "grub-install /dev/sda1" it says: Path `/boot/grub' is not readable by GRUB on boot. Installation is impossible. Aborting. | 06:25 |
| tabernaclfiasco | no infeted but the installing modified in some way where i will be vulnerable , like exploited oms ehow | 06:25 |
| SuperLag | I'm not sure *why* I'm getting that message. | 06:25 |
| cfhowlett | tabernaclfiasco so you have a dual boot of windows and ubuntu, right? | 06:26 |
| reisio | of course if 'which' can give you the path, then just using the command itself without a path would work | 06:26 |
| jnhghy | aeon-ltd: there it was... thank you | 06:26 |

| tabernaclfiasco | not yet. i would like to install a dual boot right now, but if i do that now through my win8 operating system, im wonder if that opens a opportunity for a windows virus(if i had a virus) to manipulate the ubuntu installation to exploit me | 06:28 |
| reisio | SuperLag: what says what now? | 06:28 |
| tabernaclfiasco | however a ubunutu system may be controlled or exploited which im sure could be completely taking control of my box remotely | 06:28 |
| reisio | tabernaclfiasco: technically, sure, but there is no history of that | 06:28 |
| jay_ | hmm | 06:29 |
| reisio | tabernaclfiasco: if you're worried about things like that, just set up an intrusion detection system | 06:29 |
| overclucker | jnhghy: if it isn't a command in your PATH try 'locate' or 'find' | 06:29 |
| reisio | they keep track of your system, and make unsanctioned changes obvious | 06:29 |
| reisio | and easy to revert | 06:29 |
| cfhowlett | tabernaclfiasco, if you're running windows, you're NOT running ubuntu. No opportunity (at present, so far as I know, no documented cases, et cetera, disclaimers) of infecting a NON-running system | 06:29 |

| wafflejock__ | Dragin: if not then you have it pointing to the wrong folder | 07:13 |

| Peri_A | Hi. I have a lot of folders and files that are owned by nobody. I need to change them to owned by root and realise I likely have to use the chown command, but can't get the syntax right Most grateful for any assistance.. | 07:13 |
| Dragin | I don't think I got the correct result | 07:13 |
| Dragin | tried it for /var/www as well | 07:13 |

| wafflejock__ | Peri_A: check 'man chown' for details though | 07:14 |
| Dragin | that what you mean by an absolute file name? | 07:14 |
| Peri_A | Thanks wafflejock...will give it a go. | 07:14 |
| wafflejock__ | Dragin: like http://localhost/index.html | 07:14 |
| Dragin | no, but I will now | 07:15 |

| cfhowlett | dan00b_river, come on. surely there's a way to update the kernel and NOT lose your wordpress? I don't know but .. there's GOT to be a way. | 09:27 |
| dan00b_river | cfhowlett: two ways if I've performed my google-fu correctly. | 09:28 |
| dan00b_river | one is dpkg -i | 09:28 |
| dan00b_river | second is to take a copy/snapshot/something like that. to a new instance. | 09:28 |
| === Bazou is now known as Bazoukiwi | ||
| dan00b_river | terminate the old one, fire a new one and copy back. | 09:29 |
| dan00b_river | I'm not entirely sure about the second, being a total greenhorn about the whole thing. Hence, apprehensive. | 09:29 |
| dan00b_river | AS for the the first, slightly worried whether 3.8 plays well with 12.04 | 09:30 |
| cfhowlett | dan00b_river, maybe ask in #ubuntu-server? pretty sure there's also an amazon channel about as well. | 09:30 |
| dan00b_river | good lead. I'll ask them. | 09:30 |
| dan00b_river | Thanks a ton for the time and help cfhowlett | 09:30 |
| dan00b_river | Sorry to have trouble you with a newbie's stupidity. :) | 09:31 |
| cfhowlett | dan00b_river, best of luck to you. | 09:31 |
| gordonjcp | dan00b_river: why bother upgrading to a possibly problematic kernel? | 09:31 |
| cfhowlett | dan00b_river, NO apology needed. we all started as noobs | 09:31 |
| dan00b_river | gordonjcp: Didn't know it is problematic until you mentioned it. Trying out dokku, hence wondering if I should. | 09:31 |
| gordonjcp | dan00b_river: on a server you typically don't want the lstest and greatest | 09:32 |
| gordonjcp | *latest | 09:32 |
| dan00b_river | sorry gordonjcp, latest and greatest? help a newbie out here, what if the latest and greatest doesn't work with the rest of the O?. | 09:37 |
| dan00b_river | *rest of teh OS? | 09:38 |
| [Gentoo] | i think he means you want to stay with a stable kernel thats gona have support | 09:39 |
| dan00b_river | [Gentoo]: Oh, okay. I would want to stay with that, but then there's the tempation of dokku and deplying to my own instance rather than heroku. | 09:40 |
| dan00b_river | Turns out #ubuntu-server is an empty channel. Is there a channel for Amazon EC2? | 09:41 |

| dan00b_river | Correction the case title should read: "How to update your EC2 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS v 3.2.0.53 kernel" | 10:27 |
| dan00b_river | Not sure if this will work since quite a few users have mentioned on the Amazon forums that the instance falls back to the older kernel after reboot. | 10:28 |

| Techman | I love 12.04 LTS | 10:46 |
| dan00b_river | I'm still learning to love LTS. :D | 10:46 |
| Techman | I always use LTS. Certainly helps you avoid changes that are still in the works | 10:46 |
| k1l | dan00b_river: but if you are using a ec2 instance i dont think that is gonna work. | 10:47 |
| thoonai | I want to get my matrox cards running but 12.04 seems to be to new | 10:47 |
| dan00b_river | k1l: I was afraid you'd say that. :/ | 10:47 |
| k1l | dan00b_river: a ec2 is not a regular install. that should be clear in the first place. you cant just follow ordinary howtos | 10:48 |
| dan00b_river | I am now trying to check if there's a way to get dpkg -i the 3,8 kernel and use the pvgrun that Amazon offers to get the instance to boot into it rather than the default 3.2 | 10:48 |
| dan00b_river | *pvgrub, sorry | 10:48 |
| dan00b_river | k1l: Oh, I learnt that alright. I learnt that the hard way... :( | 10:49 |

| dan00b_river | The process looks a little scary (understatement of the year) but if I'm careful at each step (wait, THIS is the understatement of the year) then maybe... | 10:50 |
| dan00b_river | Anybody got any other ideas? | 10:51 |
| k1l | i dont think you could exchange the kernel. i would recommend to talk to the ec2 support if you really need some special kernel | 10:52 |
| dan00b_river | Yeah, I guess I'll have to do that.. | 10:53 |
| dan00b_river | anyway, heading out for a bite. Will check back later to see if anyone has anything more to offer. Thanks everyone for the help! :) | 10:54 |

| anouk | hi | 12:37 |
| kalekip1 | Welcome, anouk. | 12:37 |
| cariveri | Hi. is 14 GB a reasonable amount of data on the / partition (without /home) ? | 12:37 |
| anouk | i need some help installing a intel driver on a Atom laptop | 12:37 |
| kalekip1 | cariveri: For installing Ubuntu? | 12:38 |
| almostworking | cariveri, yes, at least for my distro installs 20GB is normally , my / partition , unless u install a ton of apps. etc | 12:38 |
| mjayk | cariveri: depends where you plan on storing stuff if you plan on installing stuff to your /home then yea should be fine | 12:38 |
| ActionPa1snip | cariveri: yes, I use 10Gb. Depends on needs | 12:38 |
| sulo__ | 1 screenshot remains | 12:38 |
| cariveri | I gave / 15 GB an now im running out of space. it was obvious since my last upgrade. | 12:39 |
| Luyin | cariveri: it depends strongly on what you like to do. if you need to install a lot of apps, you're probably looking for a bit more | 12:39 |
| anouk | i need help installing cedar drm driver... anyone ? | 12:39 |
| Luyin | cariveri: got 50 GB on / here | 12:39 |
| cariveri | Luyin: I originally hoped apps were put on /home wich is larger. | 12:39 |
| almostworking | btw, im installing dual boot, on a laptop with 12.04.3 ... and i am givin a slider bar, showing how to divide storage , but doesnt say which window is for which OS. | 12:39 |
| mjayk | cariveri: you can set it as such | 12:39 |
| Luyin | cariveri: afaic not by default | 12:39 |
| kalekip1 | anouk: Did you go to the Intel website? | 12:40 |
| sulo__ | kalekip1, are you still here? | 12:40 |
| kalekip1 | sulo__: Yes, I am. | 12:40 |
| cariveri | still. isnt there any where to tear down this amount. I already deinstalled locales. next comes docs, tha tI dont need. | 12:40 |
| anouk | yes i did, it seems the best drivers are the powervr ones, just don't knoz how to install | 12:40 |
| === max is now known as Guest34020 | ||
| kalekip1 | anouk: Install or update? | 12:41 |
| anouk | install | 12:41 |
| ActionPa1snip | almostworking: I recommend you do the resize in Windows | 12:42 |
| kalekip1 | anouk: Not sure, but maybe this helps? http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/using-intel-compilers-for-linux-with-ubuntu/ | 12:42 |
| mjayk | ActionPa1snip: really :o | 12:42 |
| almostworking | oh? ActionPa1snip , there is a issue using the ubuntu installer to shrink the windows OS partition?? | 12:42 |
| anouk | thanks ill check it out | 12:42 |
| kalekip1 | anouk: I don't think so, I'll Google it if I can | 12:42 |
| sulo__ | uploading takes hours and hours, grrrr | 12:42 |
| Luyin | actually, I'd recommend using a live OS to rearrange partitions. | 12:42 |
| ActionPa1snip | mjayk: yes, Windows has a resizer for NTFS and NTFS is proprietary to Microsoft who make Windows | 12:44 |
| cariveri | mjayk: hmm ok. perhaps I should reconsider freeing space and putting /usr on a seperat partition. what size woudl you suggest? | 12:44 |
| sulo__ | hey kalekip1, check out these screeens hope it will help http://imagebin.org/271161 http://imagebin.org/271165 | 12:44 |
| anouk | well | 12:44 |
| ActionPa1snip | mjayk: so imho it makes sense to use the Microsoft tool to resize the Microsoft filesystem | 12:44 |
| anouk | installation fails from driver update | 12:44 |
| lpapp | anyone for my question/ | 12:44 |
| lpapp | ? | 12:44 |
| kalekip1 | anouk: Maybe this one? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/default.aspx | 12:44 |
| ActionPa1snip | mjayk: makes sense when you actually think about it | 12:44 |
| almostworking | really? curious why , but ok........ is there some sort of guide, ive been pure linux since version 6, so, ........ | 12:44 |
| ActionPa1snip | mjayk: so in response. "YEs, really" | 12:44 |
| kalekip1 | lpapp: What's your question? sulo__: What happens if you press continue? | 12:45 |
| ActionPa1snip | mjayk: why would it be a bad idea? | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | 'Morning folks | 12:45 |
| kalekip1 | Welcome, BluesKaj. | 12:45 |
| mjayk | ActionPa1snip: Id always use ubuntu in my experience windows is not good at resizing has a higher fail rate, id also never do it in an installer either | 12:46 |
| BluesKaj | hi kalekip1 thanks | 12:46 |
| sulo__ | kalekip1 bad question I suppose, press continue?? It is an bug report so wake up or not? :D | 12:46 |
| kalekip1 | sulo__: I meant, dismiss. Everything works fine, right? | 12:47 |
| lpapp | kalekip1: see above | 12:47 |
| kalekip1 | sulo__: if it happens again, then send report? | 12:47 |
| sulo__ | kalekip1 I am sorry I am just dumbasss after pressing continue nothing else hapenned everything is running fine, sorry again | 12:47 |
| ActionPa1snip | mjayk: far easier to plan partitions and then you dont have to resize ;) | 12:47 |
| anouk | hmm | 12:47 |
| anouk | so | 12:47 |
| sulo__ | should I try update my system? :) | 12:47 |
| anouk | how do you use a makefile ? | 12:48 |
| kalekip1 | sulo__: Don't worry. This is a nice community. That's why I am here. | 12:48 |
| almostworking | hmmm, well i can use Knoppix, or rescuecd, or whichever tool is best to resize windows first if thats what i should do..... i already did a image of windows, so i dont realy have to worry if it goes wrong | 12:48 |
| devjustforfun | Hello guys. Could any body help me with english. I know many people in here know english. | 12:48 |

| sulo__ | kalekip1 thank you maan everyone must start sometimes :( | 12:48 |
| sulo__ | :) | 12:48 |
| CSy-n | Ok, I have a text file with an address in it. and I want to ssh to that address. the command would be something like 'ssh $address-in-file'. | 12:48 |

| Version1 | Hi, laptop overheat issue. temperature 75-80+C even if CPU is throttled to about 1GHz. possibly GPU is the reason. ubuntu 12.10 | 12:49 |
| sulo__ | kalekip1, maybe I am newbie but I got an error while updating my 12.10 version to 13.04 but I fixed it so now I am running clean 13.04 :) | 12:49 |
| devjustforfun | <Pici> i have wrote in ##english already | 12:49 |
| kalekip1 | sulo__: Me2 ;) | 12:49 |
| Pici | CSy-n: just one address? ssh $(cat filename) | 12:49 |
| kalekip1 | Version1: I hope it doesn't melt bro | 12:49 |
| almostworking | Version1, what kinda laptop, and has it ever been cleaned if old? | 12:50 |
| === Rez is now known as L | ||
| almostworking | that TEMP is the CPU or GPU ? | 12:50 |
| kalekip1 | Version1: Fan, cooling, etc. | 12:50 |
| === L is now known as LoRez | ||

| dtcrshr | Hello! im trying to install ubuntu via an usb stick but I got pointed to initramfs all the time. I can see the error on the terminal complaining that a /dev/sd0 were not found. I have disabled all on bios I wouldnt use, floppy, printer ports... Is any low level loading mode so I can install ubuntu? | 12:51 |
| kalekip1 | Cleaning the fan from dust ALWAYS help a bit. | 12:51 |
| Version1 | almostworking: temp is CPU laptop: macbookPro 2006 not cleaned | 12:51 |
| kalekip1 | dtcrshr: I did it like.. yesterday :p Did you use the Universal tool? | 12:52 |
| sulo__ | kalekip1,now I know maybe there is problem with downloading translation for my language but that is ok I rather use english It is pretty good for learning :) | 12:52 |
| cfhowlett | dtcrshr, how did you create the USB. Did you md5sum to verify the download integrity? | 12:52 |
| kalekip1 | sulo__: For computing, English is my preferred language. Dutch is lame on the internet... | 12:52 |
| almostworking | ahh, i see Version1 , those run pretty hot normally, esp. under load . cleaning it out and putting some artic silver might help a bit ...... however that laptop is not easy to take apart. | 12:52 |
| sulo__ | anyway I am from the czech republic and my language is f.ckingly hard so .. :D | 12:53 |
| almostworking | and they do have a recall on the nvidia GPU on the 2007 - 08 models , | 12:53 |
| almostworking | if u have ATI should be ok | 12:53 |
| kalekip1 | sulo__: I think Chinese and Russian are the hardest to learn :p | 12:53 |
| Version1 | almostworking: its ATI | 12:53 |
| dtcrshr | Iv created via "universal usb installer" (also tryed yumi, same results) the md5 is fine, I can boot on another netbook iv tested | 12:54 |
| almostworking | ok, well, you could check the forums but i had one and that thing was hot to the touch when it was under a heavy load. | 12:54 |

| Clifford_ | hi everyone, i have problems extracting and installing xampp.tar.gz. Any help is appreciated | 12:57 |
| kalekip1 | asdf-: "was deleted"? Did you delete it? | 12:57 |
| asdf- | kalekip1, yes, manually. i thought it was created by an install script | 12:57 |
| kalekip1 | Clifford_: Web development? Use LAMP. | 12:57 |
| asdf- | kalekip1, did you really have to put me on the spot like that ;) | 12:58 |
| kalekip1 | Clifford_: sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ phpmyadmin | 12:58 |
| sulo__ | cfhowlett - thanks a lot :) It seems I must google it to find more informations :) | 12:58 |
| Clifford_ | kalekipl: isn't it the same thing | 12:58 |
| ActionPa1snip | Clifford_: why do you need the file? | 12:58 |
| kalekip1 | Clifford_: I know, do you really want XAMP that much? | 12:58 |
| ActionPa1snip | !lamp | Clifford_ | 12:58 |
| ubottu | Clifford_: 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. | 12:58 |
| sulo__ | cfhowlett - now wayyy Ubuntu 4.10 oh my good do you think It can work with my netbook? :D | 12:59 |
| kalekip1 | XAMP is for Cross-Platform. that's the X. The L stands for Linux | 12:59 |
| Clifford_ | kalekipl: yes i do. I need to use mysql | 12:59 |
| fede1208 | ciao | 12:59 |
| fede1208 | !list | 12:59 |
| ubottu | fede1208: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 12:59 |
| cfhowlett | sulo__, netbook? xubuntu or lubuntu 12.04 would be my recommendation. | 12:59 |
| Pici | !xampp | Clifford_ | 12:59 |
| ubottu | Clifford_: We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. | 13:00 |
| almostworking | sulo__, you need a light distro or something? version 4? | 13:00 |
| kalekip1 | Pici: LAMP is easier | 13:00 |
| Clifford_ | ActionPalsnip: I think its the same thing | 13:00 |
| Clifford_ | t | 13:00 |
| Pici | kalekip1: thats my point. | 13:00 |
| Clifford_ | ubutto: let me check it out | 13:00 |
| cfhowlett | sulo__, both are optimized for older and lower spec machines. do NOT use old/unsupported distros. | 13:00 |
| kalekip1 | Clifford_: Many people don't know that ubotto is a bot. It's not a joke x) | 13:00 |
| sulo__ | cfhowlett , nah I completed upgrade from 12.04 to 13.10 having some troubles with it but finaly my machine is very new :) | 13:01 |
| traplin | is there anyway to use the BCM43211 chipster (for wireless), without using ndiswrapper? as in a natively supported driver for Linux? | 13:01 |
| ActionPa1snip | Clifford_: yes bt its a package and makes things easier for you | 13:01 |
| traplin | chipset* | 13:01 |
| ActionPa1snip | Clifford_: you dont need any 3rd party stuff | 13:01 |
| ActionPa1snip | Clifford_: the how to explains it all and gives the commands to run and you will get what you desire | 13:01 |
| sulo__ | cfhowlett - I am thinking about Blackubuntu - CD but one man recommended me virtualisation program.... | 13:02 |
| almostworking | traplin, not be sound like a knob, but u can get intel or other brand internal wifi radio for your laptop on ebay? wifi N , etc ? | 13:02 |
| asdf- | can anyone tell me how to recreate the www-data group? | 13:02 |
| almostworking | if u really want to make things easier, that is | 13:02 |
| ActionPa1snip | sulo__: xubuntu and lubuntu are light and suppored here. Blackbuntu is not supported here in any way | 13:02 |
| cfhowlett | sulo__, I have no basis to compare so ... no opinion. | 13:02 |
| traplin | almostworking: i am on a desktop, and unfortunately not, i want to see if i can first get my USB dongel to work before buying a different device | 13:03 |
| almostworking | sulo__, why woudl you want to run bbuntu? | 13:03 |
| sulo__ | almostworking - to be honest I heard about some cracking and they shown that in blackubuntu :D | 13:03 |
| kalekip1 | asdf-: No idea, I'm sorry. What's your Ubuntu version? | 13:03 |
| dtcrshr | Rory: I got no such option | 13:03 |
| Clifford_ | ActionPalsnip: in what way is it easier? | 13:03 |
| sulo__ | almostworking - I mean cracking Router's setup :) | 13:04 |
| almostworking | oh, ok traplin , i got a $14 USB small wifi for my desktp a long time ago works great , Airlink101 is brand. some other nice ones out there too with excellent linux support | 13:04 |
| dtcrshr | the first one is "run ubuntu live" | 13:04 |
| traplin | almostworking: it did work, but then i installed a newer kernel (to deal with heavy performance / cpu issues). but that broke the ndiswrapper and basically it can be fixed | 13:04 |
| mjayk | traplin: wireless usb dongles are one of the only hardware parts that still have awful linux support i think ndiswrapper may be your only option | 13:04 |
| almostworking | sulo__, oh, well ud prob. be best to use a VM for that kinda thing. | 13:04 |
| traplin | almostworking: oh okay. i can look into that | 13:04 |
| ActionPa1snip | sulo__: cracking wifi is also not supported her | 13:04 |
| Clifford_ | kalekipl: oh! a bot huh! no wonder | 13:04 |
| kalekip1 | Clifford_: my name clearly ends with a "one" (1) | 13:05 |
| traplin | mjayk: yeah got it to work with ndiswrapper on the kernel packed with 13.04, but with a newer kernel, it didn't work anymore | 13:05 |
| almostworking | its woth it, i still use mine traplin , it comes in handy, i dont need it since i redid entire houses networking. | 13:05 |
| almostworking | it is worth it* | 13:05 |
| almostworking | only $11 - $15 | 13:05 |
| traplin | almostworking: think i could get it in South Africa? | 13:05 |
| sulo__ | ActionsPalsnip - Ii already tried some drivers for my wifi because my wifi card doesnt support natively injection of packets but It didnt work for me :( | 13:05 |
| mjayk | traplin: any reason you upgraded your kernal ? if no specific reason you may be better of switching back | 13:05 |
| kalekip1 | Clifford_: You can also do: (type) "kal" + (press) [tab] | 13:05 |
| Rory | dtcrshr: What options do you have? There should be "Try Ubuntu without installing", "Install Ubuntu" and an option to check the medium for errors | 13:05 |
| almostworking | traplin, yea, you have ebay there yes? | 13:05 |
| traplin | almostworking: yeah but shipping here is a bit of a risk. lots of things get stolen :/ | 13:06 |
| almostworking | oh i assumed you had a local ebay there. | 13:06 |
| Clifford_ | kalekip1: sorry about that, i didn't notice | 13:06 |
| traplin | almostworking: unfortunately not. but i am looking online now | 13:06 |
| traplin | thanks for the help | 13:06 |
| ActionPa1snip | sulo__: what wifi chip does it use ? | 13:06 |
| kalekip1 | Clifford_: Don't worry :p | 13:06 |
| mjayk | almostworking: do i detect sarcasm :D | 13:06 |
| almostworking | you dont know anyone that is state side traplin , send you a wifi USB maybe some other stuff in a teady bear , or something? | 13:07 |
| sulo__ | ActionPalsnip - if you mean Atheros 9285 is it right, now I have driver ath5k.sys right now | 13:07 |
| traplin | almostworking: haha unfortunately not. is the airlink supported out of the box? | 13:07 |
| traplin | i found one on amazon, which ships to south africa fairly safely | 13:07 |
| Clifford_ | now about extraction and installation, does someone have any idea on how to go about it | 13:08 |
| tucemiux | anybody knows if the gtx 660 works on ubuntu with the hdmi connection? | 13:08 |
| [Gentoo] | tucemiux: why shouldnt it | 13:08 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: afaik yes no reason why it shouldnt | 13:08 |
| Rory | Clifford_: What are you trying to do? | 13:08 |
| almostworking | the airlink 101 adapter i have , im sure they make more then one has worked with 95% of the distros i have tried. linux mint 12 i think didnt like it but other then that every debian based distro i have put at it ....... worked fine | 13:08 |
| tucemiux | [Gentoo], because ive been trying it and it doesn't work | 13:08 |
| sulo__ | ActionPalsnip- If you know command to show informations about my devices you can tell it me now I cant remember how It was | 13:08 |
| [Gentoo] | tucemiux: the drivers support that card | 13:08 |
| Clifford_ | Rory: I am trying to extract and install xampp | 13:09 |
| Clifford_ | Rory: or lampp | 13:09 |
| almostworking | edimax is another that is popular, i think thats based of memory people also use them for rasberry Pi . which im working on now after i get my dual boot done. | 13:09 |
| tucemiux | [Gentoo], would you happen to know how to install the drivers because im trying whats on the forum from what obuttu tells me and it's not working on my machine | 13:09 |
| tucemiux | !nvidia | 13:09 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 13:09 |
| mjayk | almostworking: do edimax use ralink chips ? | 13:09 |
| [Gentoo] | my gf uses the tiny edimax usb | 13:10 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: what drivers are you currently using | 13:10 |
| [Gentoo] | dont work without downloading the driver | 13:10 |
| almostworking | i really dont know mjayk , i just know that its supported hardware for rasberry pi. which most people run debian based distros on | 13:10 |
| almostworking | ahhhh, see [Gentoo] knows what im talking about | 13:11 |
| almostworking | the airlink is the same way, just works " out of the box" so to speak | 13:11 |
| Rory | !lamp | Clifford_ read this information | 13:11 |
| ubottu | Clifford_ read this information: 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. | 13:11 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, according to the forum, the first thing i should try is System->Administration->Hardware Drivers, which is not installed on my machine, so i went to the software center and installed the current drivers, now i have really small resolution that cant be changed | 13:11 |
| almostworking | never gonna get back to my PS3 game, i just wanted a URL for dual bootin since the ubuntu installer cant shrink my NTFS without windows freaking out? | 13:12 |
| almostworking | i might switch out this hard drive in this thinkpad anyway thou , hmmm. | 13:12 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: the system admin hardware drivers way is out of date | 13:12 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: try this | 13:12 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: sudo apt-get install arandr | 13:12 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: then run arandar from terminal | 13:13 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: arandr | 13:14 |
| Clifford_ | Rory: I have read the info. Can it be done with an outdated version of ubuntu | 13:15 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, will that help me install the drivers? The first time I tried it xrandr only had one resolution available, i reimaged the machine, tried installing the drivers and now im back tow here i started, i booted up to safemode and im currently running a check disk | 13:15 |
| Rory | Clifford_: no | 13:15 |
| Rory | Clifford_: How outdated? What version? | 13:15 |
| Clifford_ | Rory: 11.04 | 13:15 |
| Rory | No | 13:15 |
| traplin | are wifi PCI cards supported mostly by Ubuntu? | 13:16 |
| Rory | You will need to upgrade to 12.04 or later, in order to be able to download from the repositories | 13:16 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: arandr should allow you to select the correct res once you have the drivers installed | 13:16 |
| asdf- | what is the best way to recreate the user & group 'www-data'? | 13:16 |
| almostworking | traplin, i dunno, a good brand is a safe bet thou. | 13:16 |
| Rory | traplin: Yes, it doesn't matter if it's PCI or whatever, the part that matters is the wireless chipset | 13:16 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, the trick is "once you have the drivers" installed. How do I know if I have the drivers installed? | 13:17 |
| traplin | Rory: is there possibly a page that has a list of supported chipsets? | 13:17 |
| kalekip1 | !repeat | asdf- | 13:17 |
| ubottu | asdf-: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 13:17 |
| Rory | traplin: Tale a look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported | 13:18 |
| * almostworking is curious what Clifford_ needs to do...... | 13:18 | |
| traplin | Rory: thank you | 13:18 |
| Rory | traplin: generally, Ralink 2500/RT2400 (802.11G), Realtek RTL8180 (802.11G), and the Atheros AR9170 chipset (802.11N) | 13:18 |
| Clifford_ | Rory: ok, thanks | 13:18 |
| Rory | traplin: If I were you I'd avoid Broadcom chipsets if you have the option | 13:18 |
| almostworking | oh is Clifford_ lookin for supported wifi too ? | 13:19 |
| traplin | Rory: yeah, i have a USB broadcom chipset, so i am seeing if i can get a realtek one now | 13:19 |
| Rory | No almostworking he is trying to install Apache etc | 13:19 |
| almostworking | oh ok | 13:19 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, how is arandr supposed to change my resolution when it only has one available(640x480) | 13:20 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: you said you had drivers installed | 13:20 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: there are many ways to install drivers either through the software center or through the vender website | 13:21 |
| Clifford_ | almostworking: supported wifi? seriously? | 13:21 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, that's what im trying to do, I asked for help installing the drivers - I showed you the first step I did in my attempt and now I have low resolution | 13:22 |
| traplin | Rory: http://www.dlink.com/us/en/support/product/dwa-121-wireless-n-150-pico-usb-adapter , would that possibly work with Ubuntu on a different kernel to the generic? | 13:22 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: then you did it incorrectly, what version of ubuntu are you using | 13:23 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, i installed the 'current driver' using the software center, rebooted the machine and now am on low graphics | 13:24 |
| almostworking | lots of talk in here Clifford_ , im tried trying to keep up, some people might not want to dive into CLI to get wifi working, and just spend $10 , if thats the seriously part | 13:24 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: again what version of ubuntu are you using | 13:24 |
| coalwater | tucemiux: you have a dual graphics card ? ati ? | 13:24 |
| almostworking | im also tired, and never got my dual boot on | 13:24 |
| tucemiux | codename: raring | 13:24 |
| gallois | Hello... I'm facing a problem while automatically setting my timezone with a configuration manager since around last month. I used to copy the /usr/share/zoneinfo/posix file to /etc/localtime and since my last change in configuration, that is yesterday, it broke and I had my clock set to UTC. The last working configuration was from Sep. 05, using an auto generated AWS AMI with the latest updates (raring release). On further investigation, I found that the f | 13:24 |
| gallois | that I used to copy was now turned to a symbolic link, while previously it was a regular file. I tried to find a changelog for these updates online but failed. Can someone tell me if there were changes in that respect or where can I find the changes on release updates? Thanks in advance. | 13:24 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, raring 3.8.0-30-lowlatency | 13:24 |
| tucemiux | coalwater, no, i have an nvidia gtx 660 | 13:25 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: so in the "current drivers" menu you had more than one to choosefrom ? | 13:25 |
| coalwater | I thought nvidia was easier on ubuntu with the bumblebee project | 13:25 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, in the software center- yes but how do I check to see what's currently installed? I had the vga drivers and that at least gave me a usable resolution | 13:26 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: to find out what you installed go back to current drivers and look whats selected | 13:26 |
| coalwater | gallois: why not just recofigure it using `sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata` ? | 13:27 |
| almostworking | if you have inxi installed tucemiux you can output ur diver info into the channel....... /exec -o inxi -Gx | 13:28 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, im not sure what you mean about going back to "look whats selected"? You mean in the software center? That's what they are called, the drivers are called "Nvidia binary X.Org driver('current' driver)" | 13:28 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: yes and there are more to select from ? | 13:28 |
| gallois | coalwater: I did that to fix the servers that are running, but since I use autoscale to handle the traffic, my next servers will now launch with a wrong tz setting | 13:28 |
| tucemiux | almostworking, im using my laptop to irc, I can't irc on my desktop because of the tiny resolution | 13:28 |
| [1]Roach | Hi everyone, I have a question | 13:28 |
| kalekip1 | Hi, [1]Roach. | 13:29 |
| === levin is now known as Guest43694 | ||
| tucemiux | mjayk, sorry if I didnt tell you this already but yes - the software center gives me 3 options, version 96, current driver, and version 173 | 13:29 |
| kalekip1 | !details | [1]Roach | 13:29 |
| ubottu | [1]Roach: 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 ..." | 13:29 |
| gallois | coalwater: I'm intending to change the puppet files that copy the file to deal with the modifications, but I would also like to know where can I find out about those changes | 13:29 |
| almostworking | ah ok...... tucemiux . well when ur on your computer in terminal you can do inxi -Gx and that will output your display information. | 13:29 |
| almostworking | just fyi | 13:30 |
| almostworking | other stuff inxi does too | 13:30 |
| === me is now known as Guest13016 | ||
| [1]Roach | I'm trying to run Ubuntu 13.04 along side windows 8 but everytime I load it my screen goes full black and nothing happens afterwards | 13:30 |
| DJones | !nomodeset | [1]Roach This sounds like a starting point for black screen problems, | 13:31 |
| ubottu | [1]Roach This sounds like a starting point for black screen problems,: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 13:31 |
| ActionPa1snip | [1]Roach: what video chip do you have? | 13:31 |
| tucemiux | almostworking, inxi is not a package known to my ubuntu o.O | 13:32 |
| [1]Roach | Okay thank you, and I have no clue right now I just woke up | 13:32 |
| coalwater | gallois, I dont really know where the settings are, sry, tried `locate` but couldn't find a config file | 13:33 |
| almostworking | yea, i just realized that, my primary OS isnt ubuntu , im in a VM and trying to figure out best way to dual boot on a thinkpad i just got | 13:33 |
| * almostworking has a VM to handle specific things | 13:33 | |
| ActionPa1snip | [1]Roach: does the system have a make and model? | 13:33 |
| UNIm95 | hi 2all | 13:33 |
| kalekip1 | Welcome, UNIm95. | 13:34 |
| almostworking | anyway, u can wget inxi , off the top of my head i cant say the long string to do that thou , | 13:34 |
| tucemiux | almostworking, what do you mean the "best way" to dual boot? Get 2 hard drives and dual boot. You dont have 2 hard drives? Then what do you currently have? | 13:34 |
| Rory | tucemiux: what is the outpur of "inxi -Gx" ? Can you put it on http://paste.ubuntu.com | 13:34 |
| tucemiux | inxi: command not found | 13:34 |
| almostworking | its a Thinkpad, it has one drive and its a X61 so cant really do two hard drives tucemiux | 13:34 |
| almostworking | x61 | 13:34 |
| gallois | coalwater: it's cool... I can work around it, no problem at all, was just trying to track it down to its source so I can be more robust from now on :) | 13:34 |
| Rory | tucemiux: What Ubuntu version are you using? | 13:35 |
| coalwater | Currently i have 2 ufei os'es win7 and ubuntu, by default i none of the 2 would book, the grub wouldn't start, i need to press f10 on the boot and explictly choose grub,otherwise it will hang on black screen, already tried boot-repair twice, no change, any idea anyone ? | 13:35 |
| kalekip1 | tucemiux: I have 1 HDD (1 TB) and used 3 NTFS partitions. 1 Linux, 1 Windows and another 1 for everything else. | 13:35 |
| tucemiux | Rory, raring 13.04 | 13:35 |
| [1]Roach | yes It is a Lenovo Ideapad N580 | 13:36 |
| tucemiux | almostworking, before you do anything, I suggest you backup your hard drive unless you have recovery CD's for you thinkpad, then I can show you what you need to do without having to worry if you hose your laptop | 13:36 |
| [1]Roach | pre installed with windows 8 | 13:36 |
| almostworking | i already did a image of windows install via ssh into desktop machine, | 13:36 |
| ActionPa1snip | [1]Roach: so you can maybe use the web to find out, or check windows device manager...... | 13:36 |
| ActionPa1snip | [1]Roach: nothing tricky, right? | 13:37 |
| tucemiux | almostworking, how is your hard drive partition right now ? | 13:37 |
| almostworking | the thinkpad, pure windows right now, ive not touched it yet. | 13:37 |
| almostworking | so one big NTFS partition. | 13:38 |
| gallois | is there any resources where I can find the changelog of each update of a specific release, e.g. raring? | 13:39 |
| [1]Roach | well when the screen is all black like the computer is off I can hear the login sound of Ubuntu | 13:39 |
| DJones | !changelog | gallois Not sure if this is what you want, | 13:39 |
| ubottu | gallois Not sure if this is what you want,: changelogs for Ubuntu packages can be found on http://changelogs.ubuntu.com | 13:39 |

| alpha_ | how can I download the latest update for ubuntu 12.04.3 ? | 13:41 |
| tucemiux | almostworking, since you tell me you just installed windows and led me to believe you can reinstall without a problem - I also warned you about backing up your files but haven't said anything about whether its ok to continue in case you have to reimage your windows os | 13:41 |
| kalekip1 | alpha_: Do you mean: sudo apt-get update ? | 13:41 |
| coalwater | kalekip1: maybe he means the latest iso | 13:41 |
| [1]Roach | I'm thinking it is something wrong with the laptop itself | 13:41 |
| UNIm95 | Alpha_ apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 13:42 |
| kalekip1 | [1]Roach: Yes, the monitor I think. | 13:42 |
| gallois | DJones: ;) many thanks | 13:42 |
| coalwater | alpha_: do you mean an iso or upgrading ur current installation ? | 13:42 |
| alpha_ | kalejip1 : I do that but ubuntu is not update yet ... | 13:42 |
| UNIm95 | Updates will be downloaded and installed | 13:42 |
| kalekip1 | alpha_: Are you still installing Ubuntu? | 13:42 |
| alpha_ | kalekip1 : yes | 13:42 |
| kalekip1 | alpha_: You can update it later... | 13:43 |
| kalekip1 | alpha_: Just get the correct ISO | 13:43 |
| [1]Roach | I'll have to go and get it checked then. Thank you everyone for all the help. | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | alpha_, you have to sudo apt-get upgrade, as well | 13:43 |
| alpha_ | should I change the repository settings ? | 13:43 |
| almostworking | i never said i just installed windows tucemiux , i have it sorted out, appreciate your concern thou, i have 6TB of storage on the desktop , i just havent had windows on a personal machine dual booting since ubuntu v6 | 13:43 |
| tucemiux | anyone knows what happened to the software sources ? | 13:43 |
| kalekip1 | tucemiux: What do you mean? Which software sources? | 13:44 |
| MonkeyDust | tucemiux meaning? | 13:44 |
| UNIm95 | Tucemiux they are hidden in synaptic | 13:44 |
| tucemiux | almostworking, its a lot easier nowadays doing the dual boot but you always have to be careful, I installed linux first and then windows, I have 2 hard drives, all I had to do is install ubuntu, then windows, update grub, finished ! | 13:45 |
| tucemiux | UNIm95, thanks ill give it a look see | 13:45 |
| alpha_ | my screen brightness did not work as well i use the fn key ... ? | 13:45 |
| UNIm95 | Tucemiux it is in preferences-repository | 13:46 |
| tucemiux | UNIm95, right you are, theyre hidden in synaptic, I finally found them | 13:46 |
| UNIm95 | Tucemiux in xubuntu they are in menu-system | 13:47 |
| tucemiux | UNIm95, its in synaptic, I found it | 13:47 |
| UNIm95 | Ok=) | 13:48 |
| tucemiux | anyone knows what nvidia drivers I should be using for a gtx 660?? I'm looking at "Additional Drivers" in "software & Updates" | 13:48 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: im sure if u google that youd get a btter answer | 13:49 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, goggle brings me a lot of stuff that doesn't work anymore, even ubottu is of now help nowadays | 13:50 |
| alpha_ | How can I install software with apt-get much faster ? Its very Slow | 13:50 |
| almostworking | hmmm, usually I install windows first, the grub of the past didnt like sharing the MBR with liunx. | 13:50 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: well the fist link on google seams to be good to be | 13:50 |
| mjayk | *me | 13:50 |
| tucemiux | alpha_, get a faster internet connection, preferably close to the source | 13:50 |
| mjayk | tucemiux: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-ringtail-nvidia.html | 13:51 |
| alpha_ | tucemiux : How do it ? | 13:51 |
| UNIm95 | Alpha_ what is slow? apt download evrything from internet. So it is so fast as your internet | 13:51 |
| almostworking | but this thinkpad doesnt have anything important on it, its a fraction of the storage of my desktop which stores almost everything, off site backup , but to keep it simple, desktop is the main machine in the house | 13:51 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, that looks really neat, thanks for the link! I'm going to try the noveau display driver first | 13:52 |
| alpha_ | UNIm95 : The download speed of the apt-get is about 1/10 my real internet speed | 13:53 |
| Riskwrq | hi | 13:53 |

| ikonia | Riskwrq: the location of people doesn't matter in this channel. | 13:53 |
| tucemiux | alpha_, call your cable company and tell then you want a T1 line. Preferably, just move to a place that's close to the ubuntu servers and get a T1 line in your new dig | 13:53 |
| Riskwrq | ok | 13:53 |
| mooncake | it's quite weird. afaik, ubuntu's servers are fast | 13:53 |
| MonkeyDust | !in | 13:53 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India | 13:53 |
| UNIm95 | Alpha_ it is problem of repository server. | 13:53 |
| Riskwrq | but m saying im indian | 13:53 |
| Riskwrq | ok | 13:53 |
| ikonia | Riskwrq: ok, thanks for letting us nknow | 13:54 |
| tucemiux | !hello | Riskwrq | 13:54 |
| tucemiux | !hi | Riskwrq | 13:54 |
| tucemiux | !hello | 13:54 |
| ikonia | tucemiux: we get it | 13:54 |
| alpha_ | thanks | 13:54 |
| tucemiux | ikonia, how do we get the messages for new users? hi and hello is not working | 13:55 |
| ikonia | tucemiux: those factoids may have been removes as you don't really need a bot to say hello | 13:55 |
| kalekip1 | !in | Riskwrq | 13:55 |
| ubottu | Riskwrq: #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India | 13:55 |
| kalekip1 | Oh | 13:55 |
| kalekip1 | already said | 13:55 |
| DJones | tucemiux: The best way is just to say "hello" rather than using a bot prompt, it makes it more personal | 13:56 |
| Riskwrq | ok | 13:56 |
| philinux | tucemiux: !ask | 13:56 |
| kalekip1 | True ;) | 13:56 |
| almostworking | well i best be off, much to do............. | 13:56 |
| tucemiux | ikonia, actually, it's very useful, I can just say hello to the user instead of having to explain to him this is a support channel etc. etc. | 13:56 |
| kalekip1 | !ot | 13:56 |
| ubottu | #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! | 13:56 |
| UNIm95 | Question: what is official language of this channel? | 13:58 |
| Riskwrq | !in | 13:58 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India | 13:58 |
| DJones | UNIm95: English | 13:58 |
| tucemiux | DJones, but when youre helping somebody and someone is helping you - you dont really have the time to be "personal" with someone that is politely starting with the pleasantries - just go ahead your question, if someone can help you - they will help you, if not then just wait | 13:59 |
| tucemiux | just my 2 cents though, a lot has changed and haven't really kept up with the changes | 13:59 |
| UNIm95 | Djones and why we can not use here other languages? English should be on #ubuntu-en. | 14:00 |
| theblindowl | blackberry messanger exclusive on samsung phones.. crap | 14:00 |
| mnemon | UNIm95: because speaking 100 different languages on a single channel simply doesn't work, and english is the default. | 14:01 |
| DJones | UNIm95: Its been that way since I started using Ubuntu with 6.06, the majority of other languages have individual channels, it helps avoid confusion having single language channels | 14:02 |
| UNIm95 | ok | 14:02 |
| tucemiux | mjayk, i'm stuck on "Applying changes..." you think that's a good sign? :-( | 14:03 |

| alephant | Hi all | 14:04 |
| abradley | ping gateway yes | 14:05 |
| abradley | nslookup no | 14:05 |

| alephant | I need to install the same server repeatedly with a base ubuntu-server image, with some specific (but not overly complicated) RAID/LVM partition layout. In the current environment setting up a PXE infrastructure is not an option; I need to install from a DVD. Is there an easy way to create a custom DVD that will set up my disks and install automatically? | 14:06 |
| philinux | tucemiux: hoe long has it been stuck | 14:09 |
| jhutchins | alephant: Yes. | 14:10 |

| defaultro | oh so it's a package? | 14:13 |

| Jamo_ | Hello, not sure if this is the correct place to ask but I am running Ubuntu 12.10 ans was wondering how I would go about altering the code for the pwd command. For example, where do I get the source from and what should I do while recompiling so it overwrites the current command? | 14:43 |
| Pici | Jamo_: Why on earth would you ever need to do that? | 14:43 |
| Rory | Jamo_: What result are you trying to achieve? | 14:44 |
| cfhowlett | Jamo_, download the source code from the repos and hack your little heart out. | 14:44 |
| mustmodify | Jamo_: I can pretty much guarantee, based on that question, that there is a better solution to your problem. | 14:44 |
| Jamo_ | Currently I can't seem to find an option for pwd to add a backslash when there is a space in the folder path, I was going to add this feature for my use | 14:44 |
| mfilipe | cfhowlett: yeah, I know but I wanna install the java7 oracle 32bits package in a 64bits machine | 14:45 |
| mfilipe | but the package is for all archs | 14:45 |
| Jamo_ | mustmodify: There probably is, but I can almost guaruntee I won't learn as much from it | 14:45 |
| mfilipe | look: http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu/pool/main/o/oracle-java7-installer/ | 14:45 |
| Pici | Jamo_: I'd define an alias to do that. You seriously risk breaking things by modifying your shell's source to do that. | 14:45 |
| Rory | Jamo_: pwd | sed 's/\ /\\ /' | 14:45 |
| mfilipe | cfhowlett: I wanna force it to install the 32bits package | 14:45 |
| Jamo_ | Pici: That's probably safer, but I don't really know much shell. | 14:45 |
| Jamo_ | Although Rory's solution looks like it would work actually | 14:46 |
| cfhowlett | mfilipe, and sudo apt-get intall gives you >>> what? | 14:46 |
| tester_ | how do i add new program in linux to create a new linux | 14:46 |
| Rory | Could you re-phrase that tester_ ? | 14:47 |
| mustmodify | there has got to be a tool you use to escape a string... pwd | something | 14:47 |
| Rory | mustmodify: read my answer above | 14:47 |
| Jamo_ | Rory: I believe that woiuld only alter the first instance | 14:47 |
| Rory | Jamo_: pwd | sed 's/\ /\\ /g' | 14:47 |
| mfilipe | cfhowlett: it installs the 64bits package | 14:48 |
| Jamo_ | Rory: Perfec, thank you | 14:48 |
| Jamo_ | perfect* | 14:48 |
| cfhowlett | mfilipe, ah, well. You could download the 32bit .deb and then sudo dpkg -i foo.deb | 14:48 |
| mfilipe | cfhowlett: but the package downloads the java7 for 64bits through the oracle website :( | 14:49 |
| cfhowlett | mfilipe, go directly to oracle and download the 32bit file from them | 14:50 |
| bsdbandit | im running ubuntu server 10.04 LTS does cgroups work on ubuntu 10.04 or do i need to upgrade to 12.04 | 14:50 |
| mfilipe | cfhowlett: and configure through java-alternatives? | 14:50 |
| bsdbandit | ? | 14:50 |
| cfhowlett | mfilipe, I've never done it, so that would only be my guess. | 14:50 |

| Jamo_ | Sorry to bother you again Rory, but the "pwd | sed 's/\ /\\/g'" command does not insert a space after the "\", meaning its not formatted correctly. How do I fix this? | 14:52 |
| Jamo_ | Nevermind, was my mistake | 14:52 |
| Rory | Jamo_: I was going to say, what crazy sed are you running? Glad it's working | 14:53 |

| vemacs | Well, I'll just go and ask | 15:48 |
| vemacs | Hi, I've started up a container using LXC Web Panel and manually | 15:48 |
| vemacs | and am wanting it to bind to one of my assigned IPs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6117533/ | 15:48 |
| vemacs | how would I do that? the bridge works from inside to out | 15:48 |
| vemacs | but using one of those IPs just connects to the host box, when trying SSH | 15:48 |
| vemacs | how would I assign one of those IPs to the container, and access the container thru SSH? | 15:48 |
| vemacs | here's the config for that container: http://i.imgur.com/cGLjMze.png | 15:49 |

| abradley | oh. I'll look into that. thanks a lot ekool | 17:22 |
| ekool | abradley: You'll likely need to modify my.cnf and tell it to bind to the network interface, not just loopback... then you can also create a user that authenticates from the network and has the permissions you need. | 17:22 |
| ekool | abradley: however, most mysql navigators are smart in that you can tell them to SSH into localhost, then connect "locally" through that tunnel so you can avoid all that. So, check the network type area there and see if SSH is an option. | 17:23 |

| invitado | Hello, Do anyone know how to fix a bug in Ubuntu 13 about hotplugging? | 17:43 |
| BluesKaj | invitado: describe your issue /error | 17:44 |
| hays_ | what is a better lightweight browser, firefox or chromium? | 17:45 |
| SoundsFromSound | What do you mean "better"? | 17:45 |
| invitado | When I plug a divice such as a pendrive it is not detected | 17:45 |
| SoundsFromSound | solely caring about performance and nothing else? | 17:45 |
| hays_ | SoundsFromSound, quicker response, less churning on memory swapping... | 17:46 |
| GeekDude | Hi tkeranen | 17:46 |
| BluesKaj | invitado: where are you looking ? | 17:46 |
| GeekDude | Hi surya | 17:46 |
| SoundsFromSound | For that alone, I would said not Firefox. | 17:46 |
| hays_ | SoundsFromSound, Its made a difference for example to install an adblocker | 17:46 |

| GeekDude | Hi LongCatTH | 17:46 |
| GeekDude | If I open an SSH client into my ubuntu desktop (12.04LTS), and start a python script that hangs indefinitely unless the terminal is closed, will closing the SSH connection kill the script? | 17:46 |
| GeekDude | Hi Dave | 17:47 |
| bazhang | GeekDude, please stop that | 17:47 |

| === Dave is now known as Guest48599 | ||
| GeekDude | bazhang: okay. Do you know anything about ssh, or enough to answer my question? | 17:47 |
| BluesKaj | invitado: check your file manager 'places' | 17:47 |
| SoundsFromSound | Firefox in my experience uses more memory however there are other pros as to why I choose it. But for only perfomance, I'd say Chrome-family stuff is 'faster'. | 17:47 |
| SoundsFromSound | But I assure you many people will argue both sides :) Specs, etc. | 17:48 |
| hays_ | SoundsFromSound, ill try both if there is no clear winner | 17:49 |
| SoundsFromSound | You should notice a difference for sure though, as far as memory usage and whatnot. Yup. | 17:49 |

| Pici | GeekDude: yes, when you disconnect a HUP signal will be sent and will close your running application. Run your command under screen, or using nohup to prevent this. | 17:52 |
| elegant_ist | fukuılhş | 17:52 |

| invitado | when I boot with the device plugged in, it works just fine | 17:53 |
| surya | ?? | 17:53 |
| invitado | the problem is hotplugging | 17:53 |
| Pici | GeekDude: nohup does, and I'm pretty sure that screen does. | 17:53 |
| GeekDude | Pici: would screen let me use an alread-existing terminal? | 17:54 |
| BluesKaj | invitado: no need to be sorry , it's better to discuss problems in the chat , so others can help too | 17:54 |
| invitado | understood | 17:54 |
| Pici | GeekDude: Do you expect to need to reconnect to the terminal later to look at output? then screen is for you. Otherwise nohup is probably better. | 17:54 |

| supertantan | Understand and how do I access flash sites? Use Lightspark? I do not know to install, need help. | 18:08 |
| wilee-nilee | supertantan, You fully against using adobe? | 18:08 |
| TheLordOfTime | supertantan: shockwave has always ever been for Windows, and is different than Flash. Shockwave only works on Windows, maybe basic operations only under Wine, but you can't get Shockwave on Linux. | 18:08 |
| TheLordOfTime | supertantan: as for Flash, there *is* an adobe flash plugin you can install but it's non-free, and AIUI Adobe might not support it for very much longer | 18:08 |

| hays_ | mmazing, so the downside is that it flips left/right also | 18:15 |
| hays_ | mmazing, or maybe it doesn't... at any rate it seems weird | 18:16 |
| supertantan | Yes, when it started to go wrong things, and it was still morning I opened all repositories. | 18:16 |

| supertantan | Oops, update ... | 18:18 |
| wilee-nilee | supertantan, You then ran a update before installing? Are you sure what ever your accessing is a flash problem, rather than linux in general? | 18:18 |

| invitado | Recently, I presented an issue to the community. It is about hotplugging usb devices.

Any other ideas? | 18:36 |
| GeekDude | gordonjcp: I can't close the terminal over SSH | 18:36 |
| Jordan_U | hays_: Are you developing software or just using it? Most of the benefits of llvm/clang are for developers rather than end users (building the same software in Clang vs GCC won't gain you much). Also, you're probably already using some software which was built with Clang or uses LLVM. | 18:37 |

| kalekip1 | Let's say, I press on Prt Sc. A window "Save Screenshot" appears. There is an option "Save in folder: " ... | 18:43 |
| kalekip1 | How can I automatically select one? | 18:43 |
| kostkon | kalekip1, it always remembers the previously selected folder | 18:45 |
| irreverant | whats up with all the mass quits? | 18:51 |
| hays_ | not sure | 18:51 |
| GeekDude | gordonjcp: Using "^d" doesn't always work, especially if a python script is running. To kill the instance in the screen, "^a : quit" works while you're inside, and to kill the whole screen externally, "$ screen -S <name> -X quit" works too | 18:53 |
| gordonjcp | GeekDude: yes | 18:54 |
| gordonjcp | GeekDude: <ctrl-d> works from a shell prompt though, which is a good place to start | 18:54 |
| GeekDude | I suppose. My python script doesn't work properly with keyboard interrupt, so I can't return to shell, and I have to end it/kill it | 18:55 |

| Axlin | Psil0Cybin: It could be because of a lot of factors, the specific server being one of them. Also remember that notation matters; speedtest.net probably gives you Mb/s, and when downloading you're usually getting MB/s (25Mb/s = 3.125 MB/s) | 19:05 |

| gordonjcp | I bet no-one else here has *ever* done that ;-) | 19:10 |

| funky | pici so what do I use? | 19:14 |
| Pici | funky: just * | 19:14 |
| funky | ok | 19:14 |
| Pici | funky: Or specify the absolute path to prevent accidentally changing the wrong permissions | 19:15 |
| funky | before I used it it was locked into www, it still owned by root the www dir | 19:15 |

| fancyfetus | Hey guys | 19:22 |
| ppamula_ | hi | 19:22 |
| fancyfetus | I updated to ubuntu 12.10 from 12.04 | 19:23 |
| fancyfetus | Now i boot to a black screen with a cursor. | 19:23 |
| ppamula_ | i have a question regarding ubuntu 12.04.1 | 19:23 |
| === empty is now known as davidbowlby | ||
| ppamula_ | df -h shows nothing just nfs mount | 19:23 |
| fancyfetus | I tried nomodset, when i do that, it just freezes at the splash screen with the ubuntu logo | 19:23 |
| samfromat | hello everyone! Is it possible to install same updates on multiple systems? i have linux mint install on 2 partitions on same machine. Is there a way to update both the system by downloading the updates just once? | 19:24 |
| ppamula_ | touch: cannot touch `test': No space left on device | 19:24 |
| wilee-nilee | !mint | samfromat | 19:24 |
| ubottu | samfromat: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 19:24 |
| samfromat | but i guess its not a distro specific question. | 19:25 |
| kerloi | If I have an nvidia graphic card, does installing the latest nvidia driver should fix the black screen problem ? | 19:26 |
| Strit | samfromat, well, it might not be the same exact commands needed, and therefore what we say might screw up your system. | 19:26 |
| fancyfetus | wilee-nilee, im getting the black screen again. Except thia time i can access the grub. | 19:26 |
| Pici | samfromat: something like apt-cacher-ng might be able to help you, it would sit in between your linux computers and the apt repositories | 19:27 |
| invitado | thanks BluesKaj, this is the problem, another characteristic of the problem is that the device is detected and workable when I boot with it plugged in. | 19:27 |

| mihok | I have an amazon ebs drive that I need to fix, I have an openvpn service running that messes up the internet connection on the server | 20:35 |

| tjbiddle | Hey guys - General "what's a good practice" question for linux users: I was told it's bad to have a CLI app log to a file without the user knowing - But I suppress a full stacktrace unless `--debug` is passed, so sometimes random errors (Happens one time, not the next) are missed and I can't be given a bug report. What would be an ideal solution for this? Have a setting (Defaulted to true) to log 50 lines or so to a file that the user can change themselves? | 20:35 |
| mihok | but not sure how to remove the service | 20:35 |
| bucketm0use | One of two of my RAID 1's is not recognized in Ubuntu 13.04. Has anyone experienced this before? | 20:36 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: is this something you're writing? | 20:37 |
| designbybeck_ | Helping someone with a new install. They didn't want windows 8 so we took it off, now he gets: The ‘grub-efi-amd64-signed’ package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot. | 20:37 |
| designbybeck_ | when trying to install | 20:37 |
| tjbiddle | gordonjcp: Internal application, yes. | 20:37 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: just log anyway, then | 20:37 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: at least if you're running a debug build or with debugging enabled | 20:37 |
| Fyodorovna | glixed, fresh install, has it worked, have you checked additional drivers? | 20:38 |
| Rory | mihok: what is the output of "sudo service openvpn status" | 20:39 |
| tjbiddle | gordonjcp: But I like to follow best practices :-) Just wanted to get a general opinion. What would you expect that to be? But true, it's not a huge deal in my exact scenario. | 20:39 |
| mihok | Rory, its unrecognized service because ive mounted the hard drive with the service issues to /mnt | 20:39 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: I don't want to pry into your business practices, but I'd say that anyone using an internal app has rather less expectation of privacy | 20:40 |
| Rory | mihok: Oh if it's an Amazon-specific thing I don't know. Sorry. | 20:40 |
| Rory | !RAID | bucketm0use have you read the information here on RAID? | 20:41 |
| ubottu | bucketm0use have you read the information here on RAID?: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 20:41 |
| mihok | It's not amazon specific, I just need a way that I can remove a service without using commands or a gui, like can I delete some file or something? | 20:41 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: furthermore if they are using a development version of something it's not unreasonable to expect them to put up with more logging and user surveillance | 20:41 |
| Rory | mihok: "Remove" a service isn't a thing, could you re-phrase it? You want to uninstall openvpn? Or stop a service that's running? | 20:41 |
| tjbiddle | gordonjcp: Fair enough, thanks! | 20:41 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: you can tell the users that there's extensive logging going on | 20:41 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: keeps you right I suppose | 20:41 |
| maveas | ? Regarding auto install of server: I'm trying to include a preseed.cfg on my ISO but the installer doesn't load the preseed file (the documentation says that including the preseed.cfg on the root of the ISO will auto load it. Any ideas? | 20:42 |
| mihok | Rory, basically I guess uninstall openvpn on a harddrive thats been mounted, so not through apt-get | 20:42 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: if users *are* unhappy about the logging then you can give them some means to start either a debug-enabled or non-debug version | 20:44 |
| qlixed | quit | 20:44 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: and make it clear that if they run a non-debug version, they're a) not helping you get the app working properly and b) when they have problems they might not get answers | 20:44 |
| mrrcp | kill the pid and remove the openvpn | 20:45 |
| mrrcp | folder | 20:45 |
| Dr_Willis | mihok: if its using upstart and its a upstart managed service. you just rename the servicename.conf file to be like servicvename.dontrun in /etc/init/ | 20:45 |
| Dr_Willis | mihok: the 'upstart cookbook' gives details | 20:45 |
| tjbiddle | gordonjcp: I was going to have a configuration file that has something like `log_to_file=true/false`, defaulting to true - And will pass along an installation method noting that this can be changed at the users' whim. I'll keep the logging down to <200 lines or something, just so it's available if something craps out, they can send it to me. | 20:45 |
| kameha | hello | 20:46 |
| mrrcp | hi | 20:46 |
| tjbiddle | gordonjcp: In this case in particular, they'd almost all be willing to help get things working properly - so I probably won't see much of a complaint. I guess if this were a public application, I could do the same thing - just default the logging to file to false. If they run into issues they could enable it and then next time the issue occurs pass along the information. | 20:46 |
| gordonjcp | tjbiddle: yup | 20:46 |
| kameha | I will have to come here often, now as I'm a new ubuntu user | 20:47 |

| cuddylier | Anyone know why a screen appears to stop allowing me type in it after having it active for a while? I always detach before closing Putty etc or going inactive. | 21:06 |
| cuddylier | I have to stop the process and start it again for me to be able to type in the screen, I can see the output from the process fine | 21:07 |
| Fyodorovna | cuddylier, might be timing out. | 21:07 |
| cuddylier | Fyodorovna If I reopen SSH I still can't type | 21:07 |
| cipherson | ok dankest try this screen -dmS "command" | 21:07 |
| cuddylier | I can detach the screen while it's like this though | 21:08 |
| Fyodorovna | not sure | 21:08 |
| dankest | cipherson: I get: Must run suid root for multiuser support. | 21:08 |
| dankest | I could run it sudo, but none of my ruby stuff is installed under that user. | 21:08 |
| zico | j | 21:09 |
| cipherson | ok dankest try this screen -dmS shared "command" | 21:09 |
| maveas | ekool: Doesn't work.. :/ | 21:09 |
| cipherson | shared would been the screen name to share | 21:09 |
| dankest | cipherson: no new screen instace. | 21:09 |
| dankest | Command went though | 21:09 |
| cipherson | hmmm try this | 21:09 |
| cipherson | ok dankest try this screen -dmS shared "echo test" | 21:10 |

| dankest | haha yeah | 21:11 |
| dankest | I'm running a bunch of them | 21:11 |
| cipherson | hmmmm sec | 21:11 |
| dankest | I'm just trying to bash script this so I need them in a single line form | 21:11 |
| dankest | Maybe I need to update screen? | 21:12 |

| cipherson | try without the s | 21:12 |
| cipherson | ok dankest try this screen -dm "echo test" | 21:12 |
| hayer_ | "netstat -i" output seems to be malformed, or is the flag something like "0 BMRU" and "0 LRU"? | 21:13 |

| dankest | 11849.echo test(09/17/2013 02:13:12 PM)(Detached) | 21:13 |
| dankest | when I resume it though, there's nothing going on inside | 21:13 |
| cipherson | O.o that better sign | 21:13 |
| dankest | *attach it | 21:13 |
| cipherson | i see whats happening 1 sec | 21:14 |
| dankest | <3 | 21:14 |
| hayer_ | Because it is supposed to return "MTU Met", "RX-OK", "RX-ERR", "RX-DRP", "RX-OVR", "TX-OK", "TX-ERR", "TX-DRP", "TX-OVR", "Flg", right? Cause if I align them I get "0 BMRU" and "0 LRU" as "flg" | 21:14 |

| cipherson | dankest, screen -dmt "test" bash -c 'while true;do date; sleep 2; done' | 21:26 |
| cipherson | test is the title | 21:26 |

| mydog2 | ok.. oh ubuntu gods!!! i changed the strictmodes from yes to no.. and managed to get the keys working.. so, does this point to a perms issue on ubuntu within the ssh dir structure.. and if it does.. what/where can i get specific (like a 6th grader) docs on just what the prems/owner of the dirs/files should be.. | 21:30 |
| c0nfusedLubunter | bekks: Is it somehow accessible as a "file" ? | 21:30 |
| gordonjcp | mydog2: what exactly are you trying to do? | 21:30 |
| cipherson | mydog2, whats the error | 21:30 |
| bekks | c0nfusedLubunter: Nope. Because it is available as clipboard. | 21:31 |
| mydog2 | hey cipherson the previous err was Permission denied (publickey). | 21:31 |
| cipherson | did the user that is accessing the login create the file? | 21:32 |
| mydog2 | but once i changed the strictmodes per a couple of articles.. the keys worked | 21:32 |
| augustrush | My computer lost power and now wont boot. Do i have to do a fresh install? | 21:32 |
| mydog2 | cipherson, was that for me.. and if it was.. no.. i created the keys on a separate machine.. | 21:33 |
| funky | hey folks, I am using windows soft to upload stuff in bulk to ubuntu, I got sftp user setup and it works with winscp, when I click on test connection it says yes working, when it comes to upload it says permission denied | 21:33 |
| funky | what can it be? | 21:33 |
| mydog2 | and i pushed the pub key over to the ubuntu, where i then sshed in as the "user" that i'll be sshing as | 21:33 |
| cipherson | mydog2, run sudo chown username sshkeyfile | 21:33 |
| cipherson | got to make sure the user logging in owns the file | 21:34 |
| wylde | funky: the permissions on the target directory. | 21:34 |
| dankest | cipherson: ah, it works with date but not with my ruby script | 21:34 |
| mydog2 | cipherson, on the ubuntu.. there's only the authorized_keys file.. is that the file you want the data on? | 21:34 |
| dankest | cipherson: maybe it's the env var I'm pasing in? | 21:34 |
| mydog2 | there's no id_rsa.pub file | 21:34 |
| cipherson | dankest, the var your passing the command should be like this var="dlhfds"; command | 21:35 |
| dankest | screen -dmt "test" bash "SHARD_ID=3; bundle exec ruby pnapi/bin/pnapi_server.rb -svp 9000" | 21:35 |
| cipherson | mydog2, when do you see this error ? when your logging in? | 21:35 |
| cipherson | dankest, yea like that | 21:35 |
| cipherson | your missing-c | 21:36 |
| BruceS | I have disabled kernel 3.2.0-053 and reverted to 052 on my many 12.04.3 systems since the later one causes the system to hang from time to time. Have I cut myself off from upgrades and security patches? | 21:36 |
| cipherson | screen -dmt "test" bash -c "SHARD_ID=3; bundle exec ruby pnapi/bin/pnapi_server.rb -svp 9000" | 21:36 |
| cipherson | -c = command | 21:36 |
| adac | someone familiar with samba server config? I have the folleing configuration: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6600861 Problems are: I cannot access as a guest. Second problme ist that the share is not visible on the network, only when i directly access the samba share via ip adress. Any ideas? | 21:36 |
| mydog2 | cipherson, - yeah... when i do the ssh into the box... | 21:36 |
| dankest | cipherson: nada :((( | 21:36 |
| eugenio | hello guys, I have problem with my ubuntu, after boot I have the message “The system is running in low-graphics mode”, what can I do? | 21:36 |
| cipherson | mydog2, try and copy the key over again should be the public one | 21:37 |
| cipherson | dankest, whats in the window? and error? | 21:37 |
| dankest | Doesn't instantiate a screen | 21:37 |
| dankest | no error | 21:37 |
| cipherson | ok lets seen | 21:38 |
| cipherson | see* | 21:38 |
| dankest | screen -dmt "test" bash -c "SHARD_ID=3; bundle exec ruby pnapi/bin/pnapi_server.rb -svp 9000" | 21:38 |
| cipherson | dankest, the issue is once the command stops the screen will terminate and we don't see an error, try this screen -dmt "test" bash -c "SHARD_ID=3; bundle exec ruby pnapi/bin/pnapi_server.rb -svp 9000 > /tmp/script_message.log" | 21:39 |
| cipherson | maybe this output file will shed some light | 21:39 |
| mydog2 | cipherson, - yeah.. all i do.. is scp it.. and then clear out the auth keyfile.. and then cat the pub file to append it to the authkeyfile. | 21:39 |
| cipherson | mydog2, try and follow this to test, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys | 21:40 |

| dankest | haha yeah | 21:44 |
| dankest | I can talk | 21:44 |
| dankest | Right? | 21:44 |
| cipherson | oh ok | 21:44 |
| wylde | funky: that's the only reason I can think of it wouldn't work. | 21:44 |
| cipherson | yea | 21:44 |
| tenc | haha | 21:44 |
| cipherson | ok is there a new error? | 21:45 |
| tenc | what's the error Mega1? | 21:45 |
| dankest | cipherson: nothing is being written to the log file | 21:45 |
| cipherson | and the screen is blank? | 21:45 |
| dankest | well | 21:45 |
| dankest | when I get an error from the ruby script because I'm in the wrong directory, I see in in the log. | 21:46 |
| dankest | When I run the command in the right directory, I get nothing and no new screen | 21:46 |
| cipherson | how are you running in the correct dir | 21:46 |
| dankest | I cd'd to it | 21:46 |
| dankest | I could include a cd in the bash command | 21:46 |
| cipherson | try this | 21:47 |
| cipherson | screen -dmt "test" bash -c "cd path; SHARD_ID=3; bundle exec ruby pnapi/bin/pnapi_server.rb -svp 9000 > /tmp/script_message.log" | 21:47 |
| cipherson | change the path | 21:47 |
| cipherson | so the command will change dir before running | 21:48 |
| funky | who knows where I can check sftp errors log? | 21:48 |
| cipherson | funky, what server are you running for it | 21:48 |
| dankest | cipherson: no output, no screen | 21:48 |
| mydog2 | cipherson, - thanks guy... it was a permissions deal... | 21:50 |
| funky | cipherson: cloud ubuntu | 21:50 |
| cipherson | dankest try this screen -dmt "test" bash -c "exec > /tmp/script_message.log 2>&1; cd path; SHARD_ID=3; bundle exec ruby pnapi/bin/pnapi_server.rb -svp 9000" | 21:50 |
| cipherson | mydog2, np | 21:50 |
| cipherson | this will log more stuff to that file | 21:50 |
| cipherson | funky, sorry never used that :( | 21:51 |
| funky | ok | 21:51 |
| dankest | Okay, that worked and my script is running | 21:52 |
| dankest | Can I get rid of the log? | 21:52 |
| cipherson | yup | 21:52 |
| dankest | how? | 21:52 |
| dankest | what does exec > do? | 21:52 |
| cipherson | exec > logfile 2>&1 will send all standard output and standard error to a file | 21:53 |

| L1mer1ck | Anyone else experience this? | 21:53 |
| cipherson | you can remove the command and try | 21:53 |
| dankest | cipherson: once I remove log, the screen command stops working | 21:53 |
| k1l_ | !kali | L1mer1ck | 21:54 |

| cipherson | if not make the log file /dev/null and this will just send it to nothing | 21:54 |
| L1mer1ck | Solution? | 21:54 |
| cipherson | dankest make the file /dev/null | 21:54 |
| k1l_ | L1mer1ck: its not supported in here since its not ubuntu | 21:54 |
| L1mer1ck | sorry ty | 21:54 |
| cipherson | this is the black hole for information to go away | 21:54 |
| dankest | screen still gone | 21:54 |
| dankest | wtf | 21:54 |
| cipherson | hmm | 21:54 |
| cipherson | with the file it works? | 21:55 |
| dankest | Nope, now it's not working at all | 21:55 |
| dankest | fuck | 21:55 |
| cipherson | ok ok i think i know | 21:55 |
| dankest | And the screen isn't called test, it's named after my session | 21:55 |
| k1l_ | dankest: please dont swear in here. keep it family friendly | 21:55 |
| cipherson | do this ps aux | grep ruby | 21:55 |
| cipherson | do you see your command? | 21:55 |
| dankest | nope | 21:56 |
| cipherson | whats -svp 9000? | 21:56 |
| cipherson | port ? | 21:56 |
| dankest | k1l_: for sure, sorry | 21:56 |
| dankest | yeah | 21:56 |
| dankest | port | 21:56 |
| cipherson | ok i bet | 21:56 |
| cipherson | that us calling this over and over is locking the port | 21:56 |

| cipherson | does it have to be thatone? | 21:57 |
| cipherson | if so we can clear it | 21:57 |
| dankest | Changed it to something random, still no process for it | 21:57 |
| io______ | any reason why a .sh won t launch the script but instead opens gedit? I ve chmod +x it | 21:57 |
| cipherson | !!! this is so random | 21:57 |
| dankest | I know | 21:57 |
| dankest | It's driving me nuts | 21:57 |
| cipherson | go back to what worked and try a new name | 21:57 |
| cipherson | if you have a screen with the same name it will auto rename it | 21:58 |
| cipherson | i think* | 21:58 |
| dankest | Is there another program I can use to make this easier? | 21:58 |
| cipherson | well | 21:58 |

| ethan_ | thank you jimmy drangus | 22:21 |
| kalekip1 | Sirisian|Work: What do you mean with single user mode? | 22:21 |
| ward_ | i have a question about the lightdm on 13.04. I was working to remove the dots from the lightdm screen but now the wallpaper is gone too.....How can I revers this? | 22:21 |
| Sirisian|Work | kalekip1, probably not the right terminology | 22:21 |
| zdot | Sirisian|Work: what command line | 22:23 |
| Sirisian|Work | zdot, the one without x running | 22:24 |
| zdot | Sirisian|Work: you can enter single user mode either by changing the runlevel or rebooting and entering single user mode but that's usually for maintenance | 22:24 |
| Sirisian|Work | reboot then doing what? | 22:24 |
| zdot | Sirisian|Work: choose single user mode in the boot menu | 22:25 |
| Sirisian|Work | in grub? | 22:25 |
| zdot | i belive ubuntu contains that | 22:25 |
| zdot | yes. | 22:25 |
| Rav3n | not sure if this would be better suited on ##linux or here, but, been recently having some issues with sudo. Atm, every time I use sudo, all terminals end up unresponsive, and new processes can't be started either, and shutdown breaks too. If I don't use sudo, everything works just fine. (13.04 x64 on mbp, worked fine on initial install, broke down after updating). Wondering if it's a known issue perhaps, | 22:26 |
| Rav3n | and/or how I can begin to diagnose the issue (no errors until it hangs, at which point I can't check the errors) | 22:26 |

| Rav3n | zdot: any recommended flags that I should use for fsck? | 22:32 |
| zdot | Rav3n: -v maybe | 22:32 |
| zdot | Rav3n: also smartctl | 22:32 |
| wylde | Mega1: I suppose you could try sudo dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server although if it's having trouble unpacking it, the deb file may be corrupt. | 22:33 |

| compdoc | anything newer isnt exactly allowed by Apple | 22:45 |
| zdot | ndowens04: you need to run fglrx-config or something like that | 22:45 |

| arayaq | Hi. I have a laptop with no screen, only a external monitor. I installed with the mini iso a Lubuntu session but nothing appears in the screen after the grub. I managed to log in via cli, so the system works. How can I force the system to use the VGA port on startup? Also I have access to recoveey | 22:55 |
| arayaq | Recovery* | 22:55 |
| zdot | hehe i had to encrypt a home after i installed ubuntu yesterday | 22:55 |
| zdot | always a new experience | 22:55 |

| Kenjamin | Question: If i install ubuntu to a second hard drive, does it alter the MBR or can i just select which hard drive to boot from in the bios HDD select menu when i want to use linux? | 22:58 |

| arayaq | zdot, none, I logged into tty1 and touched a file, then checked via recovery. Where the external monitor works | 22:58 |
| Kenjamin | and not have windows get jealous and screw up my MBR | 22:58 |
| arayaq | wylde, yes. Does not work | 22:59 |
| zdot | arayaq: try that what wylde suggested, if it wont work, well, i guess it's time to get new hardware | 23:00 |
| Mega1 | any help with my error http://paste.ubuntu.com/6121542/ | 23:00 |
| arayaq | zdot. The hw is ok. Just doesnt use VGA for some reason | 23:01 |

| mshadle | anyone here do any prompt-less php apt installs (so it doesn't ask for php.ini overwrites)? i see no debconf-get-selections PHP options... i see a note about php.ini but no key/value/type to use | 23:08 |
| kyle___ | cipherson: gotta go, but if/when you get it working, university of michigan hosts an archive of freeware shareware and open source software for classic mac. http://www.umich.edu/~archive/mac/ | 23:09 |
| _arayaq | Ok. Again. Screenless lappy, only VGA monitor, works fine in recovery mode but fails at a normal boot. I can blindedly log into tty and use the system. Any idea of how to force the system to use VGA instead of the inexisting notebook monitor? | 23:12 |

| zdot | _arayaq: no, it did write a xorg.conf.new to /root anyway but you'll have to hardcode your default display there i think | 23:28 |

| Curtisbeef1 | noob question: I want to move over to using Ubuntu on computer(for web dev) my main drive is a SSD I have a 2TB storage drive that is NTFS. Is it not ideal to use NTFS as a storage/work drive in linux? Or will I be fine? I do do a lot of file manipulation on the drive. | 23:29 |
| _arayaq | zdot: also I was able to boot up PuppyLinux | 23:29 |
| zdot | Curtisbeef1: actually i use ntfs on my pc machine for storage all the time. ntfs-3g is kinda good | 23:29 |
| _arayaq | zdot: ill try to use the xorg.conf it generates | 23:29 |
| joewscott | I have a screenshot of the specific problem and what the toolbar looks like after I apply a theme. I can message it to anyone who has an idea of why the theme won't apply. | 23:30 |
| Curtisbeef1 | zdot: so its fine to just stick with NTFS? | 23:30 |
| zdot | Curtisbeef1: it's always better to use linux filesystems with linux but i use ntfs for windows compatibility | 23:31 |
| zdot | Curtisbeef1: it works just fine, but it's not fully linux compatibile, obviously | 23:31 |
