| tsquar3d | wilee-nilee: Yeah... the bios won't let me choose legacy. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| wilee-nilee | ah, stsrange | 00:00 |
| smaudet | tsquar3d, yeah you need a legacy boot mode, I can set mine to dual uefi/legacy, which is pretty sweet actually | 00:00 |
| wilee-nilee | strange* | 00:00 |
| smaudet | It really shouldn't be called 'legacy', it should be called 'pos'/'awesomeboot' | 00:00 |
| smaudet | instead of efi/legacy | 00:01 |
| wilee-nilee | tsquar3d, Have you checked for bios updates? | 00:01 |
| tsquar3d | Isn't there a ia32 uefi remix floating around out there? I have been searching and searching but can't find it... for like any distro. | 00:01 |
| bekks | tsquar3d: Which ubuntu version do you use? | 00:01 |
| tsquar3d | wilee-nilee: Well, no, but I just got this beast... but I can see. | 00:01 |
| smaudet | tsquar3d, so the last time I had to deal with efi was when I triple booted a macbook | 00:01 |
| smaudet | tsquar3d, and we had this thing called reFind which let you boot bios-based systems | 00:02 |
| smaudet | including 32-bit systems | 00:02 |
| smaudet | In fact that's what I used to triple boot 10.6.8/windows xp/ubuntu | 00:02 |
| GogoPogo | wilee-nilee: thanks! | 00:02 |
| tsquar3d | smaudet: I have reFIND... it does not show my 13.04 32 bit disk. | 00:03 |
| tsquar3d | :-( | 00:03 |
| tsquar3d | It just shows windoze. | 00:03 |
| smaudet | tsquar3d, yeah, dunno, this is uefi, not efi | 00:03 |
| Territoriojoven | hi so | 00:03 |
| smaudet | efi was a nice idea with some problems, uefi I think is the trashy windows implementation | 00:03 |
| Territoriojoven | i downloaded an iso image but the wubi inside didn't worked, then i tried using the windows installer from the same folder but it's not working | 00:03 |
| smaudet | at least it seems to be so far | 00:04 |
| Territoriojoven | now i think i just have to download the same version | 00:04 |

| smaudet | 'still evolving' - you got that right | 00:05 |
| kostkon | eein, np | 00:05 |
| smaudet | I suppose bios used to have some nasty bugs too | 00:05 |
| smaudet | efi was actually decent, but that's because there was only one company involved | 00:06 |
| eein | dell custom crippled bios is a fav | 00:06 |
| wilee-nilee | Territoriojoven, wubi is a wasye of time you have to use its downloader in windows. | 00:06 |
| tsquar3d | Yeah... it kinda makes me want to hurt things. | 00:06 |
| wilee-nilee | waste* | 00:06 |
| Territoriojoven | yes but | 00:06 |
| Territoriojoven | i first downloaded the iso thinking it was the only wait | 00:06 |
| Territoriojoven | way* | 00:06 |
| Territoriojoven | then i found out there was a windows installer, and that my iso wouldn't work | 00:07 |
| wilee-nilee | Territoriojoven, You have to do research. | 00:07 |
| Territoriojoven | but then that i could use both windows installer and iso together | 00:07 |
| Territoriojoven | but it didn't worked | 00:07 |
| Territoriojoven | so now im downloading what i hope is the right version to use with the installer. | 00:07 |
| wilee-nilee | Territoriojoven, does not work in uefi, is that the situation. | 00:07 |
| kostkon | Territoriojoven, that definitely not the case, use them together | 00:07 |
| kostkon | that's | 00:07 |
| kostkon | Territoriojoven, wubi currently won't work properly on win8 installations, what is your windows ver? | 00:09 |
| kostkon | Territoriojoven, try again booting the iso | 00:09 |
| Territoriojoven | kostkon: win xp | 00:10 |
| Territoriojoven | and no, too late for the iso now. | 00:10 |

| wilee-nilee | !nomodeset | yougothax0rd this a nvidia? | 00:41 |
| ubottu | yougothax0rd this a nvidia?: 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 | 00:41 |
| yougothax0rd | No, it runs Intel HD 4000 graphics. | 00:41 |
| yougothax0rd | It has no discrete GPU | 00:41 |
| wilee-nilee | yougothax0rd, Ah that is problematic as I have read. | 00:42 |
| smaudet | yougothax0rd, try turning up the brightness | 00:42 |
| smaudet | I have the exact same problem | 00:42 |
| smaudet | it is a backlight bug | 00:42 |
| yougothax0rd | turning brightness up or down works just fine | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | yougothax0rd, 12.04 has 5 years support if that works I would use 12.4.3 it gas the raring kernel. | 00:43 |
| smaudet | yougothax0rd, so what's the problem? Maybe I'm confused - I have an Intel HD 4000 as well | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | has* | 00:43 |
| yougothax0rd | how do I backdate my system, then? | 00:43 |
| yougothax0rd | I have a 12.04 Live CD | 00:44 |
| wilee-nilee | yougothax0rd, You can't down grade, this is when an image would have been a good idea | 00:44 |
| yougothax0rd | That's fine. I already have all my data backed up lol | 00:44 |
| wilee-nilee | yougothax0rd, If you go back to 12.04 get the latest download is all. | 00:45 |
| yougothax0rd | Ok than you. | 00:45 |
| yougothax0rd | *thank | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | no problem | 00:45 |

| wilee-nilee | yougothax0rd, Not sure myself. | 00:46 |

I did the procedure a long time ago so I'm not sure what I did anymore, but I think I just tried to use ssh-keygen and then copy the .pub into the remote host's authorized_keys file. -vvv shows publickey auth is failing. What could be wrong ? | 01:20 |
| kristenbb | I also tried ssh-copy-id but it still asks me for a password. | 01:21 |
| Kalel | Greetings folks.. My today's doubt is: How can i make my Raring change to headphones automaticallly when I plug a jack adaptor? I always have to go in the 'sound configurations' and change it.. A little frustating. | 01:23 |
| ancaster | kristenbb, it may be that the permissions set on your home folder or ~/.ssh folder aren't correct | 01:25 |
| dion | why don't have have root or "sudo" access in my GUI windows? | 01:26 |
| ancaster | iirc, they can't be world read/writeable, and your .ssh can only be user read/writeable | 01:26 |

| fellayaboy | why is their 3 dvds in debian torrent | 01:29 |
| reisio | fellayaboy: it's basically all the software you can install on Debian, not just the OS | 01:29 |
| cfhowlett | fellayaboy, why ask #ubuntu? ask debian. | 01:29 |
| reisio | fellayaboy: if you want just the OS, you'd want CD1 alone, or any of the netinstall images | 01:29 |
| wilee-nilee | fellayaboy, this is ubuntu not debian | 01:29 |
| fellayaboy | sorry wrong channel | 01:30 |
| Kalel | kostkon: Can't I change something in the respective file to make it change automatically? | 01:30 |
| kostkon | Kalel, what's the output of: aplay -l paste it .e.g. on pastebin.com | 01:31 |
| urgodfather | another question... i have a system at work that we loaded with ubuntu... backlight doesnt work out of the box, but after forcing it on via terminal, it works.. how to set so it will at boot i.e. from grub? | 01:31 |
| ChogyDan | dion: I don't really know the real fix, but I suppose you can do gksu nautilus <location> | 01:31 |
| kristenbb | ancaster: the permissions seem right, what else could be the problem? | 01:32 |
| dion | ChogyDan: whats nautilus? | 01:32 |
| ChogyDan | dion: it's the program where you can drag and drop files | 01:32 |

| Zutara | OK. | 01:40 |
| kostkon | Kalel, just open the file like this: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf or if that does not work, give sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf then press ctrl+x to save it. | 01:41 |
| ancaster | kristenbb: just reading up on this. one solution is to force sshd to look in an unencrypted folder for your key files | 01:41 |

| Kalel | kostkon: Just open and close? | 01:42 |
| kostkon | Kalel, add the lines first obviously :P | 01:42 |
| kostkon | Kalel, the 3 lines of the quirk | 01:42 |
| kostkon | Kalel, then save the file, then close the editor and then reboot your system | 01:42 |
| Kalel | kostkon: I will try follow this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/InstallingLinuxAlsaDriverModules - To update the modules. | 01:43 |
| kostkon | Kalel, no. try the quirk first. don't overcomplicate it | 01:43 |
| Kalel | ok | 01:44 |
| kostkon | Kalel, just add these 3 lines in the conf file. | 01:44 |
| kostkon | those, im not gonna paste them here ok :P | 01:44 |
| kostkon | Kalel, what's the laptop model | 01:45 |
| Freeder | Hi, I'd love to get some ideas on an implementation question we have- I'm looking to implement a cron file that checks if a process is running, and restarts it if it is not. Should that code be 100% contained in the cron file, or should the cron file call another script that checks if it is running, and then call the actual execution file- what are your thoughts on the pros and cons? | 01:45 |
| Kalel | kostkon: HP Pavilion DV6 6190 | 01:45 |
| Kalel | kostkon: BR for me, and US for your | 01:45 |
| kostkon | Kalel, good, im talking about these lines | 01:46 |
| kostkon | #Quirks for dv6-2170us | 01:46 |
| kostkon | alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel | 01:46 |
| kostkon | alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel | 01:46 |
| kostkon | options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m4-1 enable_msi=1 | 01:46 |
| ssfdre38 | what is better PPTP or L2TP | 01:46 |
| kostkon | you made me flood the channel :/ | 01:46 |
| bwayne | Freeder: having the cron file call the script is how I approach it. | 01:46 |
| ssfdre38 | if you say openVPN, i have that already | 01:46 |
| ancaster | Freeder: same. then you can test your script without having to monkey with cron | 01:47 |
| kostkon | Kalel, br us what? | 01:47 |
| Kalel | :-) Thank you kostkon. I will reboot to try. -- Is to sufix of the model line. BR is Brazil and US for United States. Therefore, the same PC | 01:48 |
| kostkon | Kalel, add the suffix where exactly? | 01:48 |
| Freeder | bwayne: so the cron file would just be 'bash checkproc.sh' , and do everything in checkproc.sh, not checkproc.cron ? | 01:48 |
| kostkon | Kalel, oh ok ok | 01:48 |
| Freeder | and ancaster ^ :) | 01:48 |
| bwayne | Freeder: let me check mine real quick. | 01:49 |
| Kalel | kostkon: HP's thing.. Eg. dv6 6190br - dv6 6190us - Just the country... | 01:49 |
| Freeder | the original plan was to have checkproc.cron contain {is code running, if yes exit, if no restart}, but the new plan is to have checkproc.cron contain {isitrunning.sh && restartcode.sh} ... does that agree with what you're saying? | 01:49 |
| Kalel | kostkon: Thank you again. | 01:49 |
| kostkon | Kalel, yeah got it. sorry about that | 01:49 |
| ancaster | ancaster: yes. and if you make your shell script executable and have the magic first line, then you don't need to call bash | 01:49 |
| kostkon | Kalel, no probs | 01:50 |
| ancaster | Freeder: I'm now talking to myself, it seems. :-) | 01:50 |
| Freeder | I saw :P | 01:50 |
| Freeder | ok. | 01:50 |
| === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off | ||
| Freeder | still anxious to see what bwayne has as well | 01:51 |
| mitch-_ | how do i make a bootable usb of NOT ubuntu from within ubuntu | 01:52 |
| cfhowlett | mitch-_, you mean a different distro? | 01:52 |
| mitch-_ | of anything | 01:52 |
| mitch-_ | i have SBS2011 that i nee dto make a bootable usb | 01:52 |
| bwayne | Freeder: yeah, that's what I'm doing. I've got a 'start_daemon' script which takes nice parameters etc as well as the name of the command. | 01:52 |
| wilee-nilee | mitch-_ handfuls of usb loaders | 01:52 |
| mitch-_ | i have the ISO and i need to make bootable | 01:52 |
| cfhowlett | mitch-_, linux usb can usually be done with unetbootin | 01:52 |
| bwayne | Freeder: i'm hardly add things to cron so I always have to go back and check how I'm doing it. :) | 01:52 |
| Freeder | no worries | 01:53 |
| mitch-_ | cfhowlett, any will work. one that is quick and easy | 01:53 |
| Freeder | but now i wonder if i misspoke | 01:53 |
| mitch-_ | unetbootin, i'm even ok with CLI but. i need to expand the iso onto the USB i guess | 01:53 |
| Freeder | when I said cron file, that is what we refer to it here as... not a crontab file | 01:53 |
| mitch-_ | is unetbootin free? | 01:53 |
| mitch-_ | slash easy? | 01:54 |
| cfhowlett | mitch-_, yes/yes | 01:54 |
| Freeder | bwayne: do you call start_daemon from your crontab? or do you call a script, which then calls start_daemon? | 01:54 |
| mitch-_ | you win | 01:54 |
| mitch-_ | apt-get'ing now | 01:54 |
| mitch-_ | :D | 01:54 |
| cfhowlett | mitch-_, and you do NOT expand the iso. unetbootin will copy it over and set up the USB for booting | 01:54 |
| mitch-_ | cfhowlett, thank you! | 01:54 |
| mitch-_ | haha | 01:54 |
| mitch-_ | i like the capital "not" | 01:55 |
| mitch-_ | basically a "don't do that moron!" | 01:55 |
| mitch-_ | i was using that as a term.... a way of explaining how my mind sees it | 01:55 |
| bwayne | Freeder: start_daemon is a script itself. So I use cron to call a script, in essence. | 01:55 |
| mitch-_ | "derp" basically | 01:55 |
| Freeder | right | 01:55 |
| deitarion | Does anyone here know how to get enable the network cgroups support on 12.04 LTS? I'm told it'll let me virtualize routing tables but all the instructions I've found for setting up cgroups just assume that the default loadout will include whatever cgroups functionality the guide covers. | 01:56 |
| Freeder | so the argument/discussion we're having now is, should the script called by cron have all the check and restart code in it, or should it call {checkprocess.sh && restartprocess.sh} | 01:57 |
| mitch-_ | so it definitely freaked me out with the distro part but i think it does seem fairly easy...... | 01:57 |
| mitch-_ | cfhowlett, you win! | 01:57 |
| mitch-_ | well | 01:57 |
| cfhowlett | mitch-_, not to worry, just wanted to make sure. unetbootin is pretty much point and shoot. | 01:57 |
| mitch-_ | you win an e-hug | 01:57 |
| mitch-_ | *hug* | 01:57 |
| * cfhowlett ... le blush | 01:57 | |
| mitch-_ | haha | 01:57 |
| Kalel | kostkon: Hey, worked, changed to headphones when plugged, Otherwise, I've to change manually to 'Surround' from 'Stereo' or doesn't work.. | 01:57 |
| kostkon | Kalel, hmm, it should remember that choice. try again now that you have set it to stereo | 01:58 |
| bwayne | Freeder: my implementation would be a single script which first tests the process to see if it exists and then to launch the process if it isn't. | 01:58 |
| mitch-_ | cfhowlett, so this will boot on a winders machine righT? | 01:58 |
| mitch-_ | i plug it in, it's a "bootable usb" and goes on from there | 01:58 |
| Kalel | kostkon: I changed to surround. Default is stereo. | 01:58 |
| Freeder | bwayne: thank you. | 01:59 |
| fellayaboy | i wanna install ubuntu onto a usb drive...how can i have it so that ubuntu boots in terminal first | 01:59 |
| kostkon | Kalel, oh yeah i misread | 01:59 |
| cfhowlett | mitch-_, bootable is bootable. the machine doesn't care if it's windows or not so longs as it's bootable. BUT you do need to tell the machine to boot the USB and not from the HD | 01:59 |
| kostkon | Kalel, it's beats headphones afterall :P | 01:59 |
| mitch-_ | cfhowlett, PS - You should put these instructions on the internet. because "The Google' has nothing for how to make a simple Bootable USB..... | 01:59 |
| mitch-_ | yeah i know that part | 01:59 |
| Freeder | ancaster ^^ does that match what you said? I think you said have the script called by crontab, call two seperate scripts | 01:59 |
| cfhowlett | !usb|mitch- | 01:59 |
| ubottu | mitch-: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 01:59 |
| mitch-_ | i meant that the OS iso behind the bootable will boot fine. but ok. cool | 02:00 |
| Kalel | kostkon: Yes... | 02:00 |
| mitch-_ | ubottu, day late and a dollar short mr ubottu, domo-oro-gottu (mr ubottu??) | 02:00 |
| ubottu | mitch-_: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:00 |
| mitch-_ | yessssssssss | 02:00 |
| ancaster | freeder: nope, just one script. so yes, matches what bwayne does | 02:01 |
| fellayaboy | is it safe to install ubuntu on a usb stick? | 02:01 |
| Freeder | thanks | 02:01 |
| fellayaboy | or will i experience alot of crashes | 02:01 |
| Freeder | that means I'm right. | 02:01 |
| Freeder | :) | 02:01 |
| ancaster | :-) | 02:01 |
| dr_willis | fellayaboy: i do that all the time | 02:01 |
| mitch-_ | cfhowlett, seriously. thank you. life saver | 02:01 |
| ancaster | what could go wrong? | 02:01 |
| Kalel | kostkon: I think I should update the modules.. | 02:01 |
| dr_willis | no crashs here | 02:01 |
| ancaster | (go wrong... go wrong...) | 02:02 |
| Freeder | any reasoning as to why that method is better than the one script calling two script method? | 02:02 |
| cfhowlett | mitch-_, have fun, be safe | 02:02 |
| Kalel | Doesn't work nothing now. | 02:02 |
| kostkon | Kalel, ok, if you think it is needed | 02:02 |
| fellayaboy | dr_willis but im not talking about an installer.. or a live usb.... im talking about completely intalling using the ubunt installer... | 02:02 |
| cfhowlett | fellayaboy, worst thing could be your usb crashes. rare but possible. get a new one. | 02:02 |
| dr_willis | fellayaboy: i do that all the time .... a full normal install | 02:02 |
| Kalel | kostkon: yep.. I can try. Its reversible anyway. | 02:02 |
| fellayaboy | oh ok cool | 02:02 |
| ancaster | freeder: no, but unless i need to, i'll just keep things simple in one script | 02:02 |
| kostkon | Kalel, go for it then ok | 02:03 |
| ancaster | easy enough to refactor into two scripts later if needed | 02:03 |
| fellayaboy | which distro is the best ...where the windows environment is super light... idk if unity will hold up on some pc's i ahve | 02:03 |
| dr_willis | !lubuntu | 02:03 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 02:03 |
| fellayaboy | nice | 02:03 |
| cfhowlett | fellayaboy, lubuntu and xubuntu are both optimized for lower spec and older machines | 02:04 |
| dr_willis | thats the lighest desktop | 02:04 |
| fellayaboy | nice | 02:04 |
| dr_willis | xubuntu has more features | 02:04 |
| fellayaboy | thank you so much..ok so how can i set it up after installation to boot into terminal environment first...and if i enter X it will boot up x environment | 02:04 |
| cfhowlett | fellayaboy, and xubuntu is the foundation of ubuntustudio, mature | 02:04 |
| dr_willis | !text | 02:04 |
| ubottu | To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 02:04 |
| fellayaboy | cool thanks cfhowlett | 02:04 |

| Spart | Okay, so what's wrong then? | 02:53 |
| wilee-nilee | Spart, Are you aware that you have uefi and it is gpt? | 02:53 |
| Spart | I thought I had BIOS? | 02:54 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi is it still sending emails currently like right now as i am typing? | 02:54 |
| moorvogi | @MsSayian yes, i'll get one w/in the next 20 minutes | 02:55 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi. Is this for home use or enterprise use? | 02:55 |
| moorvogi | @MsSayian /usr/share/sendmail/sendmail: 899: /usr/share/sendmail/sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail-msp: not found | 02:56 |
| moorvogi | home. i have a lab setup at home. learning how things work | 02:56 |
| moorvogi | haha failing. .but learning :P | 02:56 |
| wilee-nilee | Spart, you do it is different with uefi though, and uefi is not really many peoples forte here, certainly not mine, I would suggest reading the link and looking at this thread, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 | 02:56 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi run a service --status-all and see if sendmail if running if it is turn it off. | 02:56 |

| wilee-nilee | Spart, do yourself a favor and backup the W8 if it means anything to you first. | 02:57 |
| moorvogi | @MsSayian the [ + ] indicates it's running? | 02:57 |
| moorvogi | @mssayian i ran service sendmail stop and it says it's stopping but i ran the status again and it still has the + by it >< | 02:58 |
| MsSayian | hmmmmm | 02:59 |
| moorvogi | * Stopping Mail Transport Agent (MTA) sendmail [ OK ] | 02:59 |
| moorvogi | but retains the + | 02:59 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi I going to think maybe a child process went bad | 02:59 |
| moorvogi | tick.. hehe just got another one :P | 03:00 |
| moorvogi | email is.. Cron <smmsp@hostname> test -x /etc/init.d/sendmail && /usr/share/sendmail/sendmail cron-msp | 03:00 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi so you made a cron script to send the mail, and it will turn the service on to send the mail based upon the setting. I believe you have it setup as that. | 03:02 |
| urzg | MsSayian, hi | 03:02 |
| MsSayian | @urzg hi? | 03:02 |
| moorvogi | fair enough, but i'm not seeing anything in crontab -e ahh but i see one in /etc/init.d.. | 03:03 |
| MsSayian | @moorvoogi you said every 20 minutes right | 03:04 |
| moorvogi | it seemed like it yah | 03:04 |
| moorvogi | we'll know in.. 16 minutes | 03:04 |
| urzg | moorvogi, are you Indian/ | 03:04 |
| urzg | ? | 03:04 |
| moorvogi | i KNOW it was more than 1 hour | 03:05 |
| urzg | moor seems Indian :p | 03:05 |
| moorvogi | no.. born in iowa | 03:05 |

| urzg | ahh | 03:05 |
| moorvogi | motorcycle rider :D | 03:05 |
| urzg | :D | 03:05 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi i would say check the /etc/cron and check daily hourly monthly and weekly | 03:05 |
| === p0wn3d_ is now known as p0wn3d | ||
| MsSayian | @moorvogi see what is in there find your script and delete it. | 03:06 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi if it is a root crontab script you need to sudo crontab -e | 03:06 |
| Mikicacarica | FREE BRAZZERS ACCOUNTS ---> http://gratisbrazzers.blogspot.com | 03:06 |
| moorvogi | see.. i dont recall making one haha thats the tricky part. it's not in sudo crontab -e though | 03:06 |
| moorvogi | i'll check the /etc/init... | 03:06 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi check the daily hourly monthly and weekly within /etc for cron as well | 03:07 |
| moorvogi | this ubuntu is.. about 24 hours old. only init, init.d and initramfs-tools no other folders yielded from ll | grep init in /etc | 03:08 |
| ancaster | hey all. What's the best practice around having a localadmin user that's able to login when NIS goes down? | 03:08 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi and if im reading your script correctly try running a locate for cron-msp | 03:08 |
| ancaster | just adding a local user to my box doesn't work... logins still hang for a good several minutes | 03:08 |
| moorvogi | nada. no cron-msp | 03:09 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi run a top to see what process is calling sendmail, maybe if you didnt kill the root process it is still spawning child processes to send mail | 03:10 |
| moorvogi | @MsSayian i'm runnin top but, i'm not really sure how to tell what is calling sendmail (though i dont see sendmail in the list eaither) (hitting google quick) | 03:13 |
| wilee-nilee | MsSayian, moorvogi Might help to know you can tab complete nicks here, @ is not commonly used. | 03:14 |
| moorvogi | SWEET MOTHER! | 03:14 |
| MsSayian | @moorvogi or the last option if it really isnt working my last idea killall sendmail. Thanks wilee-nilee I'm not used to the irc here my other irc didnt support it. | 03:14 |
| MsSayian | moorvogi: or killall cron or crontab i forgot how it is ran | 03:15 |

| xeeder | hi there, i have been using ubuntu 12.04 LTS for the last couple of days on my laptop and one thing which i have noticed is that: the battery timing sucks!! | 03:20 |
| moorvogi | MsSayian: no joy but i'll keep digging to see what else it might be. fun times! | 03:20 |
| === kenneth is now known as Guest63583 | ||
| xeeder | is there anything i can do? like power save in windows (in power settings) or something like that? | 03:20 |
| xeeder | please help | 03:21 |
| MsSayian | moorvogi: Those where my only answers. | 03:21 |
| moorvogi | MsSayian: more than i had 20 minutes ago. thanks for trying! | 03:21 |
| josephmudloff | xeeder: have you read the pm-utils documentation? | 03:21 |
| xeeder | no; should i? josephmudloff | 03:21 |
| josephmudloff | Yes! -- Or, even do a google search for pm-utils usage. | 03:22 |
| MsSayian | xeeder: If you click on the dash home and if you type system settings you can edit when you can send and what you can do when the power is low. Also go to the brightness and lock tab, and reduce the brightness that should save some power as well. | 03:22 |
| xeeder | all i want is to atleast have a reasonable battery timing; its ridiculously low! :/ | 03:23 |
| josephmudloff | Timing? Do you mean increase the life of your battery? | 03:24 |
| bwayne | xeeder: battery meters are often very inaccurate, and need to be recalibrated from time to time, even from a hardware level. you can read this for some more info. it seems to be a universal problem. --> http://lifehacker.com/130735/how-to-recalibrate-your-laptop-battery | 03:24 |
| josephmudloff | Preach it, bwayne. | 03:24 |
| xeeder | have you used windows? there is a power save option which works very well for me; i expected to have that option available in ubuntu too :/ | 03:24 |
| === anthony is now known as n0wje | ||
| MsSayian | xeeder: If you click on the dash home and if you type system settings you can edit when you can send and what you can do when the power is low. Also go to the brightness and lock tab, and reduce the brightness that should save some power as well. | 03:25 |
| josephmudloff | Number one benefit -- bring the brightness of your display down. | 03:25 |
| xeeder | MsSayian, i am doing that.... | 03:25 |
| josephmudloff | You can customize power profiles in Ubuntu, as well. Might be dependent on your desktop enviornment, so search google for lxde power save or xfce power save, or whatever environment you're using. | 03:26 |
| moorvogi | MsSayian: i'm sure it has somethign to do with ssmtp at this point. i'm logged on as a diffrent user (that doesn't have a gmail account) and it's barking about accountname@gmail.com i think i have ssmtp configured poorly as this problem began shortly after that was installed :D | 03:26 |
| xeeder | josephmudloff, its simple ubuntu; one that comes by default (ONE i think) | 03:26 |
| josephmudloff | xeeder: And, make sure that your BIOS options for CPU throttling are set correctly. | 03:26 |
| josephmudloff | I | 03:27 |
| josephmudloff | I'm not sure what that is -- Unity, perhaps? So, search Unity power management. | 03:27 |
| xeeder | josephmudloff, BIOS options are default; i never tried changing any of that | 03:27 |
| xeeder | josephmudloff, yeah unity it is | 03:28 |
| MsSayian | moorvogi: Your getting closer is there something like ssmtp.conf? | 03:28 |
| josephmudloff | NEVER trust factory-shipped defaults - you need to see what the settings are by entering the BIOS utility at startup, to make sure it's set correctly. Or, at least, the way you want it set. | 03:28 |
| moorvogi | aye. i'm looking at the config now /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf :D | 03:28 |
| josephmudloff | Chances are, your BIOS settings will be set correctly, but it's good to check. After that, it's | 03:29 |

| oaulakh | problem with installing packaget from apt-get | 04:09 |
| cfhowlett | oaulakh, "problem" ... | 04:09 |
| oaulakh | problem was start ocurring when i was installing rpm | 04:09 |
| oaulakh | with command "apt-get install rpm" | 04:10 |
| cfhowlett | oaulakh, rpm? redhat package manager? THAT rpm? | 04:10 |
| oaulakh | and stop it in half with pressing ctrl +z | 04:10 |
| oaulakh | yeah thats rpm | 04:11 |
| cfhowlett | oaulakh, so you half installed it and killed it midway? | 04:11 |
| oaulakh | yeah | 04:11 |
| oaulakh | i killed the process in middway | 04:11 |
| cfhowlett | oaulakh, no need to "reset" ubuntu. sudo apt-get purge rpm will remove it | 04:12 |
| oaulakh | and after that i see nothing going to install on ubuntu | 04:12 |
| oaulakh | if i use that apt-get | 04:12 |
| wilee-nilee | oaulakh, using rpm is a bad idea as well. | 04:12 |
| oaulakh | it show me to some directory like dpkg not accesiable | 04:13 |
| cfhowlett | wilee-nilee, please advise if you (probably) know more than I. I'm guessing dpkg lock? | 04:13 |
| oaulakh | but some packages are only availaible in rpm | 04:13 |
| oaulakh | like xchat | 04:13 |
| cfhowlett | oaulakh, improper shutdown of apt = dpkg lock. normal. "reset ubuntu" not required. | 04:13 |
| wilee-nilee | oaulakh, run sudo apt-get update and pastebin it. | 04:13 |
| cfhowlett | oaulakh, what? xchat is a firefox addon and IS available in ubuntu! | 04:14 |
| wilee-nilee | cfhowlett, I would guess locked yeah. | 04:14 |

| fuzk | cfhowlett which is best | 04:23 |
| cfhowlett | fuzk, both are optimized for older/lower spec machines. xubuntu is a bit more mature and has long term support with 12.04 | 04:24 |
| fuzk | ok | 04:24 |

| oaulakh | if firefox have xchat addon | 04:38 |
| oaulakh | then thats good | 04:38 |
| cfhowlett | Pingu, so a dual boot? no wubi | 04:38 |
| Pingu | cfhowlett: yes I want the grub to come up | 04:38 |
| kostkon | oaulakh, not xchat per se but... https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/chatzilla/ | 04:38 |
| cfhowlett | oaulakh, chatzilla is good on firefox | 04:39 |
| cfhowlett | Pingu, and you also have windows ... | 04:39 |
| oaulakh | here's the process | 04:39 |
| oaulakh | of dual boot | 04:39 |
| Pingu | cfhowlett: I am duel booting windows 8 and ubuntu 12.04.3 | 04:39 |
| oaulakh | because i'm also using dual boot without | 04:39 |
| oaulakh | wubi | 04:39 |
| Ari-Yang | Pingu, it's dual, not duel... | 04:39 |
| cfhowlett | Pingu, got it. grub should have detected the other OS, but I'm not the one to ask on the UEFI systems. ask in channel. | 04:40 |
| dr_willis | except when the 2 os's fight | 04:40 |
| Pingu | cfhowlett, I installed ubuntu before I installed windows | 04:40 |

| Pingu | ubottu, I have grub just the grub menu doesnt show at boot | 04:41 |
| ubottu | Pingu: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:41 |

| Codex_ | hello | 04:49 |
| Codex_ | the grub menu isnt coming up at boot | 04:49 |
| Ari-Yang | Codex_, did you hold down SHIFT on boot? | 04:49 |
| Codex_ | oh | 04:50 |
| Codex_ | nope :( | 04:50 |
| Codex_ | can I change it so it just comes up without doing anything? | 04:50 |
| Ari-Yang | Codex_, if that doesn't work then edit /etc/default/grub and comment the line GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 and uncomment the line GRUB_TIMEOUT= and set it to 10 | 04:50 |
| Ari-Yang | Codex_, after run sudo update-grub in terminal.... | 04:51 |
| Codex_ | what will setting hidden timeout to 10 do exactly? | 04:51 |
| Ari-Yang | Codex_, make it looks like this: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=G8cbYsBp (the file is in /etc/default/grub) | 04:51 |
| Ari-Yang | Codex_, it will display the grub menu for 10 seconds | 04:52 |
| Ari-Yang | you can make it less if you want. | 04:52 |
| cfhowlett | codex, display menu 10 seconds then boot default | 04:52 |

| Ari-Yang | just download the image that is appropriate for your system. AMD64 for 64-bit | 05:00 |
| Pingu | hello | 05:01 |
| Pingu | im back | 05:01 |
| Pingu | cant get the grub menu to come up | 05:01 |
| Pingu | I have a UEFI partition | 05:01 |
| Pingu | please help | 05:02 |
| Pingu | ubottu: hello | 05:04 |
| wilee-nilee | Pingu, Can you boot windows or ubuntu? | 05:04 |
| Pingu | yes | 05:04 |
| Pingu | both | 05:04 |
| xeeder | can i install any kernel from the given kernel directory?? | 05:04 |
| Pingu | but only from selecting them in bios | 05:04 |
| Pingu | I want grub so I can choose | 05:05 |
| xeeder | 48. v3.10.12-saucy/ | 05:05 |
| xeeder | 49. v3.11-saucy/ | 05:05 |
| xeeder | 50. v3.11.1-saucy/ | 05:05 |
| wilee-nilee | Pingu, That may be the best you can do, I have seen people in this same situation, I assume this is from gui's not messing with the bios. | 05:05 |
| xeeder | i want to install latest one; will it be compatible with ubuntu 12.04 LTS? | 05:05 |
| wilee-nilee | xeeder, Problem here is that kernels stock to releases are what are supported here only technically. | 05:06 |
| Pingu | wilee-nilee, well I know the grub is there because otherwise ubuntu would not load | 05:06 |
| Pingu | I just need to know how to make the grub menu to show | 05:07 |
| Daejeo | hello guys | 05:07 |
| wilee-nilee | Pingu, sure, however this uefi thing is a bit of a pickle, you have manufacturers making their own versions. So depending on how you installed may be a difference. | 05:07 |
| Braun | ibus says the isput method is off | 05:08 |
| xeeder | wilee-nilee, "The mainline kernels builds are produced for debugging purposes and therefore come with no support. Use them at your own risk." | 05:08 |
| wilee-nilee | and | 05:08 |
| Pingu | wilee-nilee, I agree it isn't really that great | 05:08 |
| parallels | hello all | 05:09 |
| Braun | 和快速斯拉夫己内部的分开了发rje | 05:09 |
| parallels | ? | 05:09 |
| Pingu | wilee-nilee, I installed both windows and linux in uefi | 05:09 |
| xeeder | wilee-nilee, so i shouldnt install the latest kernel :/ | 05:09 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, I'm using 3.11 and everything is just fine.... | 05:09 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, are you using on 12.04? | 05:09 |
| Ari-Yang | - OS: Linux 3.11.0-996-generic/x86_64 - Distro: Ubuntu 12.10 - | 05:09 |
| parallels | I'm running version 12.04 on my iMac on a virtual machine using parallels 8 desktop. how can I upgrade to 13.04? | 05:09 |
| wilee-nilee | xeeder, Your choice really, I have never seen any claims on optimus needing 3.9 here though. | 05:10 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, I'm running DRM-Next | 05:10 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, latest stable is 3.11.1 | 05:10 |
| rizal | Pingu, have you tried this ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 05:10 |
| wilee-nilee | parallels, 12.04 has 5 years support, you would have to go through 12.10, personally I never upgrade. | 05:10 |
| Pingu | parallels, well I would make a copie of your vm incase it goes wrong | 05:11 |
| Pingu | rizal, having a look now | 05:12 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i am not sure if 12.04 will be cool with latest kernel; will it be? | 05:12 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, I can't give a definitive answer. But to be honest, it should be fine :| | 05:12 |
| Ari-Yang | I've seen people run 12.04 with mainline kernels | 05:13 |
| rizal | pingu, sorry I am just learning, and I do not really speak English proficient | 05:13 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i am counting on this :D | 05:13 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, you can always boot into a previous kernel version or uninstall the mainline kernel if you want | 05:13 |
| parallels | thanks guy. | 05:13 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, why do you want to use a mainline kernel? | 05:13 |
| Ari-Yang | I'm just curious.... | 05:13 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i want to install latest nvidia driver which requires 3.9 and higher | 05:13 |
| xeeder | with 3.8 people have reported problems | 05:14 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, ah, okay. Good luck. | 05:14 |
| shubhamjain | Hi guys. I have tried almost all solutions but the randomly not getting sound card detected has been unsolvable. Any one having the same issue? | 05:14 |
| parallels | I think I should upgrade to Parallels desktop 9 because it came with version 13.09, but the only thing is it come with a price of $50. | 05:14 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, I installed 3.11 because of DPM (dynamic power management) for open source radeon driver. | 05:14 |
| rizal | Pingu, i hope this can solved your problem .. | 05:14 |
| parallels | what's new it's iMac from Apple. | 05:14 |
| gavinguo | if anyone can ping me again to test the sound? ;) | 05:14 |
| Ari-Yang | gavinguo | 05:14 |
| wilee-nilee | gavinguo, huh | 05:15 |
| gavinguo | Ari-Yang, thanks, great!! | 05:15 |
| Pingu | rizal, can I run boot-repair within my ubuntu install or do I have to run it from a live disk | 05:15 |
| Ari-Yang | wille, he wanted to be highlighted. | 05:15 |
| gavinguo | wilee-nilee, thanks, too. | 05:15 |
| rizal | from live disk | 05:15 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, should i go for latest one; or is it too early for that? i mean latest will be unstable or something like that | 05:15 |
| diverdude | anybody knows a program which canrecord from mic and save to wav file? | 05:16 |
| rizal | Pingu, from live disk or live flash driver ... | 05:16 |
| Pingu | rizal, is there a specific reason for that? | 05:16 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, go by this site: https://www.kernel.org/ the latest stable Kernel is 3.11.1, if you want that download from this directory: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11.1-saucy/ | 05:16 |
| Pingu | rizal, I jus dont know if I will be able to boot from a live disk becuase last time I tryed I had to unplug all sata cables and remove graphics card | 05:17 |
| Pingu | *just | 05:17 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, check this page out https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html kernel 3.10 is LTS | 05:17 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, so it's up to you. | 05:17 |
| Ari-Yang | either is fine... | 05:18 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, what does this means? >>"will completely disable any way of working with additional hard drives from within Nautilus (Nautilus will show as if there were no hard drives attached to the computer even though they are and you can access them through the terminal)." | 05:18 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, the kernel that in development is 3.12, latest release is 3.12-rc1; RC releases are patch releases. | 05:18 |
| shubhamjain | diverdude: Not usre but I have heard of SoX. | 05:18 |
| shubhamjain | s/usre/sure/ | 05:19 |
| Pingu | does anybody know if this will work without live cd https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair ? | 05:19 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, if thats ^ (what i posted in quotes) not a big issue; i am good to go | 05:19 |
| Nubuntu | Hey guys | 05:19 |
| Pingu | hey | 05:20 |
| rizal | Pingu, maybe you can boot with usb ..? | 05:20 |
| rizal | on live mode | 05:20 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, dunno, obviously something about Nautilus. I mean it clearly states what will be disabled in nautilus | 05:20 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, I'm not sure.... where did you get that? on a side note, xeeder you'll have to use DKMS (I think that's what it's called) to get proprietary drivers/modules to work with mainline kernels. | 05:20 |
| rizal | Pingu, you can install boot repair in live mode | 05:20 |
| Nubuntu | So i have a question. If i boot ubuntu, will it give me the option to make a new partition for ubuntu and keep windows secure | 05:20 |
| Pingu | rizal, yeah sure I just want to know if it would work without live mode first to save time | 05:21 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, for example, if I want to use my wifi proprietary driver (broadcom wifi :V) I'll have to go through a process to get it to work with my current mainline kernel. | 05:21 |
| Ari-Yang | I think VMware counts too... haven't tried it | 05:22 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, so I advise you to disable all proprietary drivers when installing a mainline kernel, set it all to open source. | 05:22 |
| rizal | Pingu, maybe | 05:22 |
| mattwj2002 | hi guys...how well is bluray supported in ubuntu | 05:22 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i have atheros wifi which is supported; so i think it will work; right? | 05:22 |
| Pingu | rizal, well I guess it is worth trying | 05:23 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, how to set them open source? | 05:23 |
| rizal | Pingu, i only ever on live mode | 05:23 |
| xeeder | why is there no guide on ubuntu for that :/ | 05:23 |
| mattwj2002 | I want to buy a BluRay burner and burn some disc | 05:23 |
| Nubuntu | If i boot ubuntu, will it give me the option to make a new partition for ubuntu and keep windows secure/unharmed | 05:23 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, go to additional drivers from system settings. | 05:23 |
| Pingu | rizal, what do you mean? | 05:23 |
| wyclif | hey | 05:23 |
| Nubuntu | wait huys | 05:24 |
| Nubuntu | If i boot ubuntu, will it give me the option to make a new partition for ubuntu and keep windows secure | 05:24 |
| shubhamjain | Nubuntu: It will replace the classic boot loader with GRUb with an option to boot to windows. SO I guess yes. | 05:24 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, it says no proprietary drivers are in use | 05:24 |
| diverdude | shubhamjain, SoX? | 05:24 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, I know on 12.10 and 13.04, you go to software sources and select the additional drivers tab from there. also there's this on DKMS http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2041602 | 05:24 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, okay, you're good | 05:24 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, so if you install a mainline kernel right now, everything should be just fine, wifi etc. | 05:25 |
| shubhamjain | Diverdude: Sound Exchange. Google it. Havent used it myself. | 05:25 |
| wilee-nilee | Nubuntu, What windows release is this? | 05:25 |
| Ari-Yang | [01:22:44] <xeeder> Ari-Yang, i have atheros wifi which is supported; so i think it will work; right? ---> not sure, best way to find out is to try *shrugs* | 05:25 |
| rizal | Pingu, i just tried on live mode | 05:25 |
| Pingu | rizal, oh ok | 05:26 |
| rizal | Pingu, sorry my english chaotic | 05:26 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, you running on 64-bit or 32-bit? | 05:26 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, 64-bit | 05:26 |
| Pingu | rizal, dont worry about it man, thanks for the help | 05:26 |
| rizal | ok ... | 05:26 |
| xeeder | dont know why kernel headers return false when i typed Y for it | 05:27 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, okay so you'd download the linux-image amd64 .deb and if you're gonna use DKMS just in case get the headers amd64 .deb and the headers all .deb | 05:27 |
| moorvogi | goodnight all | 05:27 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, so if you were to download kernel 3.11.1, you'd download http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11.1-saucy/linux-image-3.11.1-031101-generic_3.11.1-031101.201309141102_amd64.deb http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11.1-saucy/linux-headers-3.11.1-031101-generic_3.11.1-031101.201309141102_amd64.deb and http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11.1-saucy/linux-headers | 05:28 |
| Ari-Yang | -3.11.1-031101_3.11.1-031101.201309141102_all.deb | 05:28 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11.1-saucy/linux-headers-3.11.1-031101_3.11.1-031101.201309141102_all.deb | 05:28 |
| Ari-Yang | ( sorry for spam :V) | 05:28 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i am going with 3.11 | 05:28 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, throw them all in a folder, cd into it via terminal and run sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 05:29 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, make sure they're the only .deb files in the folder if you're gonna do it that way. | 05:29 |
| Nubuntu | sorry, it is win y | 05:30 |
| Nubuntu | *7 | 05:30 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i am using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel (how to upgrade kernel) is it cool? | 05:31 |
| wilee-nilee | Nubuntu, Some OEM's have 4 primary partitions, this is the maximum, so we need to see if this is the case from ubuntu. Generally it is better to shrink the windows with its disk manager leaving a unallocated for the ubuntu install. | 05:31 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, ummmm yeah I'd run the command I just said, seeing how that works. | 05:32 |
| Ari-Yang | put all the .deb files in one folder, cd into it with terminal and run: sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 05:32 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, after when it's done, reboot | 05:32 |
| wilee-nilee | Nubuntu, However people do use the installer to resize windows your choice, hyou just want to be sure you have the partition types and max allowed in order | 05:33 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, kernel headers return false; i am sure that i replied with Y when it asked if i wanted to have kernel headers | 05:33 |
| Nubuntu | yeah, I want to keep windows files secure, but have lets say 100 gigs for ubuntu. So the installer, will let me create a parition? | 05:34 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, you mean the headers didn't install? | 05:34 |
| xeeder | "Would you like to download kernel headers [Y/n]: Y | 05:34 |
| xeeder | " | 05:34 |
| wilee-nilee | Nubuntu, Oh yes, if unallocated the manual install will allow you to make a partition, you probably want a swap to. | 05:34 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, "Kernel headers: False, Kernel image: True, Kernel extras: True | 05:35 |
| xeeder | " | 05:35 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, how are you downloading those files? | 05:35 |
| xeeder | by using ubuntu guide | 05:35 |
| Nubuntu | ok good. Because I just want to make sure that all windows files are ok | 05:35 |
| Ari-Yang | ...forget that guide xeeder, follow my instructions I gave you above :/ | 05:35 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i am using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel (how to upgrade kernel) | 05:35 |
| wilee-nilee | Nubuntu, I think even with a unallocated space you can hit install alongside, I always manual install so not real sure. | 05:35 |
| xeeder | what should i do know; should i close the terminal? | 05:36 |
| xeeder | its still downloading | 05:36 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, it's downloading the image? | 05:36 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, should i close terminal; or what now? | 05:36 |
| Nubuntu | ok. I'll just watch a tut then thanks wilee-nilee | 05:36 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, if it's downloading, just leave it.... | 05:36 |
| xeeder | yeah its completed: 50% | 05:36 |
| xeeder | still downloading | 05:36 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, where will it be saved to? | 05:36 |
| Ari-Yang | your downloads folder? | 05:36 |
| xeeder | leave means>>quit to terminal? | 05:36 |
| Ari-Yang | no leave as in don't quit | 05:37 |
| Ari-Yang | just leave it alone and let it download.... | 05:37 |
| wilee-nilee | Nubuntu, no problem, once in a great while someone will let the installer resize windows and have brick because its resized to far, but it seems rare. | 05:37 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, I wanted you to just download the .deb links from the directory page, simply download it and when it's done install it :| | 05:37 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, its downloading to some default directory i guess as i didnt specify any during upgradation | 05:38 |
| oaulakh | hello again | 05:38 |

| xeeder | wth; i just tried to copy the lines from terminal with ctrl+c and it returned with keyboard interrupt | 05:39 |
| oaulakh | so who need dual boot | 05:39 |
| xeeder | the whole thing stopped i guess? Ari-Yang | 05:39 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, just highlight and right click and hit 'copy'? :b | 05:39 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, okay lets start from scratch | 05:39 |
| Ari-Yang | close the terminal if it isn't closed (and close it if it looks like the download stopped) | 05:40 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, it isnt closed but i cant see any download; | 05:40 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, go to this page, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11.1-saucy/ simply click and download image amd64, headers amd64, and headers all. after move all of the .deb into a single folder.... | 05:40 |

| Lightz | Hi. I want to see the input of my digital camera from canon on my ubuntu 12.04 screen. how can i do it? or for what feature do I have to search? Thanks! | 06:09 |
| SwedeMike | Lightz: you want to use it as a real time webcam basically? | 06:09 |
| Lightz | SwedeMike: yes | 06:10 |
| Isara | Does your camera change modes when plugged to a computer? | 06:10 |
| Isara | If it forces itself in a different mode where you can't use the camera then there's no viable way. | 06:10 |
| Lightz | Isara: Sorry, I dont know. | 06:10 |
| Isara | You own the camera. Just plug it to a PC and see what happens. | 06:10 |
| Isara | Can you take photos while it's plugged? | 06:11 |
| Lightz | Ok. I also will search for a way to use it as webcam. that should work. I will ask later if I dont find anything. Thanks. | 06:11 |
| SwedeMike | Lightz: if it works as a webcam under windows, then you should try a webcam application and see if it works under linux as well. if you need to convert video output from the camera with some kind of video input card, then that's what you need to look for. | 06:13 |

| guest1337 | could someone assist me with an Ubuntu installation? | 07:08 |
| guest1337 | I'm currently on a live cd | 07:08 |
| guest1337 | basically, in the installation for 13.04 | 07:09 |
| reisio | yes? | 07:09 |
| reisio | good guest number :p | 07:09 |
| xeeder | ubottu, what do you mean by equal? i have read that 0 means halt; 6 means reboot; 5 means upstart; isnt that how it suppose to be? | 07:09 |
| ubottu | I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 07:09 |
| guest1337 | k, so there's things like /boot and / and /var | 07:09 |
| guest1337 | What does / do? | 07:09 |
| guest1337 | Does /boot actually contain all the files for the Ubuntu boot? | 07:09 |
| aeon-ltd | guest1337: yes, it contains grub | 07:10 |
| aeon-ltd | guest1337: / is root, it can contain everything if you want | 07:10 |
| reisio | the top of the filesystem is / | 07:10 |
| joufflu | hi hi | 07:10 |
| xeeder | okk..gotcha | 07:10 |
| guest1337 | Let's say: Could I install /boot onto an SSD, and then everything else onto a 1 TB hard drive, and would it boot as if I installed everything on the ssd? | 07:10 |
| aeon-ltd | guest1337: some people like to separate directories for better management | 07:10 |
| Territoriojoven | before doing that, it's going to be normal xubuntu right? | 07:11 |
| reisio | just as /foo/ contains /foo/bar/, / contains all | 07:11 |
| guest1337 | If I select the ssd for /boot, then the 1 tb for /, would it install an extra copy of /boot into /, or not contain /boot in /? | 07:11 |
| aeon-ltd | guest1337: if ssd boots first, you should be able to configure it to boot from other hdds | 07:11 |
| xeeder | when i type runlevel it returns: "N 2" what is N here? 2 is current run level right? | 07:11 |
| reisio | boot isn't an entire os | 07:11 |
| reisio | you might leave /home/ off the ssd, though | 07:12 |
| guest1337 | Sorry, it's late at night, and I'm trying to fix my computer. I've been getting errors when I installed it on the hdd | 07:12 |

| xeeder | when i type runlevel it returns: "N 2" what is N here? 2 is current run level right? | 07:13 |

| auronandace | xeeder: thats what the repos are there for | 07:34 |
| xeeder | old drivers had a issue like blank screen or something like that; and i have searched around a bit and found that latest are the ones that are good | 07:34 |
| guest1337 | I typed that into the terminal (find /boot/ -type f -iname '*grub*c*f*') and it didn't do anything. | 07:35 |
| otak | If guest1337 is on the live cd and wants to examine the installed files, need to mount hard drive / ssd first and cd to that... | 07:35 |
| auronandace | !nomodeset | xeeder | 07:35 |
| ubottu | xeeder: 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 | 07:35 |
| guest1337 | kk | 07:35 |
| reisio | guest1337: anything in /boot/? | 07:36 |
| guest1337 | I think previously (through another tutorial to try and fix this) I had mounted the partition (sdb1) to /mnt | 07:38 |
| guest1337 | How can I get to it? | 07:38 |
| xeeder | auronandace, "Installing proprietary nvidia drivers usually makes this option no longer necessary, so it may not be needed to make this option permanent, just for one boot until you installed the nvidia drivers." how to set it for one boot only? | 07:38 |
| guest1337 | ah, I have to go anyways | 07:38 |
| guest1337 | bye | 07:39 |
| xeeder | auronandace, i am talking about nomodeset | 07:39 |
| auronandace | xeeder: it should say so in that thread | 07:39 |
| xeeder | auronandace, it doesnt :/ | 07:39 |
| xeeder | auronandace, found it | 07:40 |
| auronandace | xeeder: yes it does | 07:40 |
| Kristall | Soo... how big is Kylin since PRC is pushing it? | 07:42 |
| Kristall | It'd be funny seing Ubuntu surpass Windows in China | 07:42 |
| auronandace | Kristall: this channel is for support issues only | 07:43 |
| KnownSyntax | Linux Deepin is the best China based distro based from Ubuntu I've seen | 07:43 |
| cfhowlett | KnownSyntax, deepin? never heard of it. kylin maybe? | 07:43 |
| cfhowlett | !kylin | 07:43 |
| cfhowlett | !ubuntukylin | 07:43 |
| KnownSyntax | Yeah, Google it. It has the best desktop manager ever (based from gnome) but it looks and feels just like Windows 7. | 07:44 |
| cfhowlett | KnownSyntax, http://www.ubuntukylin.com/# | 07:44 |
| auronandace | KnownSyntax: isn't supported here, not from ubuntu | 07:45 |
| cfhowlett | KnownSyntax, kylin is the official ubuntu linux distro per agreement with the PRC and ubuntu | 07:45 |
| xeeder | auronandace, if i install it from repository then should i need to configure the kernel too? or i should be worry free? | 07:45 |
| xeeder | "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa | 07:45 |
| xeeder | sudo apt-get update | 07:45 |
| xeeder | sudo apt-get install nvidia-325" | 07:45 |
| KnownSyntax | I know that. | 07:45 |
| KnownSyntax | But I wish ubuntu did support it | 07:45 |
| auronandace | xeeder: i never said use the ppa | 07:45 |
| auronandace | xeeder: you should be worry free | 07:45 |
| KnownSyntax | I mean look at it; http://www.linuxdeepin.com/index.en.html It's so beautiful. Sad how Ubuntu only supports distros that use it's same layout (unity, etc.) | 07:45 |
| cfhowlett | KnownSyntax, not likely to happen. see kylin | 07:46 |
| auronandace | KnownSyntax: ubuntu only supports distros it makes | 07:46 |
| KnownSyntax | Lol | 07:46 |
| reisio | Ubuntu supports many DEs other than Unity... | 07:48 |
| reisio | and also versions it does not make... | 07:48 |
| reisio | please make sense, ye | 07:48 |
| KnownSyntax | Well yes, but not in Ubuntu itself (AKA Kubuntu etc.). | 07:48 |
| reisio | official distro | 07:48 |
| KnownSyntax | I meant like core in just Ubuntu, not any other distro. | 07:48 |
| cfhowlett | !distro | 07:48 |
| ubottu | Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems) | 07:48 |
| KnownSyntax | Correct. | 07:49 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: that's a horrible DE layout | 07:49 |
| KnownSyntax | What is? | 07:49 |
| reisio | you can use KDE on 'Ubuntu' | 07:49 |
| Kristall | I need to use 13.10 or update my kernel to support my hardware as best as possible... hmm... I wonder which .10 is most stable. I'm scared updating kernel because that will break things and I'm too lazy to do fixes when .10 is so close. | 07:49 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: that deepin thing, why has it got all that wasted space at the bottom with that silly bar? | 07:49 |
| cfhowlett | gordonjcp, trying to mimic win7 would be my guess | 07:49 |
| KnownSyntax | It's supposed to be like Windows 7, aka task bar. The icons are like the "quick start" icons and also show what is running etc. | 07:49 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: that's stupid | 07:50 |
| gordonjcp | it wastes so much space, it should be at the side like in Unity | 07:50 |
| Kristall | Looks better than windows imo... and ubuntu should pick up some notes fom it and Kylin. | 07:50 |
| gordonjcp | I started using Windows a couple of weeks ago, that's one of the things that really annoys me about it | 07:50 |
| KnownSyntax | Eh, if you just started using Linux, would you go for something that looks like it and feels like it, or something unfamilar? That's the point. For someone who has used linux before, it would be somewhat pointless unless you loved the looks of Windows 7 | 07:50 |
| cfhowlett | Kristall, well as its NOT supported here ... I'd say we're pretty much offtoic | 07:50 |
| reisio | notes on the desktop paradigm everyone already uses? | 07:50 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: no, you'd be better going for something that looks completely different | 07:51 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: that way you won't trip yourself up on all the things that are *nearly* the same | 07:51 |
| KnownSyntax | Not if you are a noob though, lol. | 07:51 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: <shrug> | 07:51 |
| KnownSyntax | You'd be so lost. | 07:51 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: I'm a total Windows noob | 07:51 |
| Kristall | Ubuntu's top bar is a pain when you want to run a program fill-screen... | 07:52 |
| KnownSyntax | But I do love Ubuntu, just wish somethings were different about it and what not. | 07:52 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: I find it easier to get around Windows being totally different from my Ubuntu desktop, than if it was nearly-but-not-quite the same | 07:52 |
| auronandace | KnownSyntax: perhaps you can voice your opinions in #ubuntu-discuss | 07:52 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: car analogy, and a true story | 07:52 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: I have two cars, very similar, both Citroëns | 07:52 |
| KnownSyntax | gordonjcp: Hm true, although others dislike it. | 07:53 |
| Ben64 | !ot | 07:53 |
| 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! | 07:53 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: both the same model, Citroën CX, but different versions - one is the older Series 1, the other is the Series 2 | 07:53 |
| Kristall | Anyone know which ubuntu derivative is the most popular? Ku Xu Lu | 07:53 |
| KnownSyntax | auronandace: I know, was just saying since someone brought up a chinese distro etc. | 07:53 |
| cfhowlett | Kristall, see distrowatch | 07:53 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: they are *almost* identical inside, but on the switches beside the steering wheel the headlight and windscreen wiper switches are swapped around | 07:54 |
| cfhowlett | !derivative | 07:54 |
| auronandace | KnownSyntax: and this is a support channel, not a discussion channel... | 07:54 |
| Kristall | cfhowlett: DIstrowatch's numbers are garbage. :-/ | 07:54 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: so every time I go to turn the lights on when I'm driving one after driving the other, I switch the wipers off | 07:54 |
| Ben64 | gordonjcp: take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:54 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: *so so nearly* the same | 07:54 |
| gordonjcp | KnownSyntax: you're going to run into the same problem by making your DE look so nearly the same as Win 7 | 07:55 |
| Kristall | Is it possible to make ubuntu's top bar autohide like the side bar? | 07:55 |
| auronandace | Kristall: i don't think you can | 07:55 |
| gordonjcp | Kristall: I don't think you can but I believe you can make it transparent | 07:56 |
| Isara | You can do that in XFCE, but I am not sure about Gnome/Unity. | 07:57 |
| Kristall | Isara: Funny you mention that because I'm using LXDE because I can't figure out how to make the top bar hide... could do it in xfce. | 07:58 |
| reisio | Xfce | 07:58 |
| MonkeyDust | Kristall i guess you can do that with unity-tweak-tool, in the 'panel' section | 07:58 |
| republican_devil | how do i learn vlan network stuff in ubuntu? and iscsi or fcoe or ataoe? | 08:04 |

| republican_devil | how hard is it to setup a big box of disks raid 10ed asa a iscsi SAN? | 08:17 |
| Isara | Here's the problem Found Windows 8 (loader) on /dev/sda1 | 08:17 |
| Isara | Sorry, couldn't help myself. | 08:17 |
| republican_devil | and how well does xen support win2008? | 08:17 |
| gordonjcp | republican_devil: Not Very | 08:17 |
| gordonjcp | don't know about Xen and Windows | 08:17 |
| gordonjcp | iSCSI is dead easy | 08:17 |
| republican_devil | what are the overall steps of preparing a ubuntu box to be used asa SAN? | 08:18 |
| Kristall | I use KVM instead of Xen because it's easy and I'm lazy. | 08:18 |
| republican_devil | I am assuming ethernet cat6 | 08:18 |
| Kristall | Windows works on KVM just fine for me... | 08:18 |
| xeeder | Isara, is it the problem windows 8? i am using it for my bitlocked drives | 08:18 |
| republican_devil | ok how about KVM supporting 2008 then? | 08:18 |
| gordonjcp | republican_devil: install Ubuntu, set up some sort of partition for storage, install iSCSI | 08:18 |
| republican_devil | when you configure the iscsi part what do you do? is it documented howto? | 08:18 |
| republican_devil | I never did it | 08:18 |
| gordonjcp | republican_devil: you might be better asking in ##windows, I've only been using Windows for acouple of weeks | 08:18 |

| xeeder_1 | Can anyone suggest me a comprehensive guide regarding kernel upgrade please?? | 10:15 |
| chorgox | morning everyone... im in ubuntu 13.04 and the other day I installed the new kernel 3.11 after that my ati video card started to act funny.. [BIG NOOB QUESTION HERE] is this normal everytime i update the kernel some of the drivers can stop working and stuff? | 10:15 |
| Ben65 | xeeder_1: sudo apt-get upgrade | 10:15 |
| chorgox | i do have a dual monitor setup and trying to reinstall ati drivers was impossible so i had to go back | 10:16 |
| Ben65 | chorgox: and where did you get such a kernel | 10:16 |
| chorgox | i follow this one ben http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2013/09/linux-kernel-3-11-released-install-upgrade-in-ubuntu-13-0412-04/ | 10:17 |

| Ben65 | chorgox: that method is unsupported, and can leave you vulnerable | 10:18 |
| chorgox | so I should wait until the kernel is updated via software update center or whatever is called then ? | 10:20 |

| Ben64 | chorgox: yes | 10:20 |
| Ben64 | xeeder: explain what you want | 10:20 |
| Ben64 | chorgox: if you use LTS versions, you can get the new kernels when they come out | 10:21 |
| xeeder | i updated my kernel to 3.11.1 and screen got messed up; so i reverted back to previous one; i need to know all the dos and donts before and after i install kernel | 10:21 |

| oaulakh | no he just trying to upload image | 12:31 |
| xeeder | mjawayk, yup; i am trying to install it on ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 12:31 |
| cfhowlett | stomanata, so, to prevent me from facepalming directly into my keyboard, at present you have deleted the files from all possible backups and want to recover them from .. somewhere? and you installed kubuntu on the debian partition, so THAT has been formatted and overwritten? right? | 12:31 |
| stomanata | no. my kubuntu (previosly debian) in on "/" . my back up is on sda7 | 12:32 |
| cfhowlett | stomanata, so you DO have backups? | 12:32 |
| mjawayk | xeeder: ok open terminal and type sudo apt-get install ubuntuone-control-panel-qt | 12:32 |
| mjawayk | xeeder: then let me know what happens | 12:33 |
| === mjawayk is now known as mjayk | ||

| zykotick9 | rescept: try booting recover at the grub menu, then add your user to the sudo group. | 15:27 |
| vmiheer | rescept: Do you have bootable ubuntu disk or pendriver? | 15:27 |
| rescept | i do | 15:27 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, http://i.imgur.com/Icg4r8u.png | 15:27 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, that's...odd.... so you uninsalled the kernel? | 15:28 |
| rescept | ok.. ill try that route | 15:28 |
| xeeder | yeah i did; i am using 3.8.0 now :/ | 15:28 |
| Ari-Yang | hmmm | 15:28 |
| tcfm | hello | 15:28 |
| xeeder | this OS is really messed up; it cant install UbuntuONE because of python package being corrupt | 15:29 |
| xeeder | why i am getting this error: " Depends: python2.7-dev (>= 2.7.3) but it is not going to be installed" on running "sudo apt-get install python-dev python-setuptools python-pip" | 15:30 |
| varunendra | rescept, there is a substitute to "sudo", especially useful when sudoers file is messed up, but I can't remember it's name. Maybe someone else can | 15:32 |
| Ari-Yang | btw xeeder, this is the 3.11 kernel I'm using http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-next/ | 15:32 |
| Ari-Yang | but I'm 12.10 btw | 15:32 |

| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i really wanted to try; believe me and i did install it too; but on reboot it was all messed up; so i reverted back to original | 15:33 |
| Ari-Yang | *nod* | 15:33 |
| tcfm | I have a question regarding unattended upgrade. Is it possible to get mail notification if i don't have mail server on the server? | 15:34 |
| varunendra | rescept, found it - "pkexec" - it can be used instead of "sudo". | 15:34 |
| rescept | varunendra: would help if i knew my root's pw but since its missing I can do anything | 15:36 |
| SJr | ARGH! Cfdisk doesn't know it can't create partitions greater than 1.7 TB :( | 15:37 |
| varunendra | rescept, it uses your user password, just like sudo. See if this can help : http://askubuntu.com/questions/73864/how-to-modify-a-invalid-etc-sudoers-file-it-throws-out-an-error-and-not-allowi | 15:37 |
| zykotick9 | SJr: personally, i'd try gdisk or parted | 15:38 |
| rescept | varunendra: i doesnÃ't... and that's why im o confused what has happened | 15:39 |
| varunendra | rescept, what is your UID ? (output of "ID") | 15:39 |
| varunendra | sorry "id" | 15:39 |
| rescept | 1000 | 15:40 |
| xeeder | i am installing this python-dev package and getting this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6137054/ please help | 15:41 |
| rescept | varunendra: uid=1000(iiro) gid=1000(iiro) groups=1000(iiro),33(www-data) is full output | 15:42 |
| xeeder | also this error has really messed everything up for me for the last couple of hours: python-dev: Depends: python (= 2.7.3-0ubuntu2) but 2.7.3-0ubuntu2.2 is to be installed | 15:42 |
| SJr | zykotick9, hmmmm parted doesn't like it either but at least gives an error. | 15:42 |
| varunendra | rescept, then I guess it should have been able to let you edit the file normally (like sudo). But you still can boot into recovery console as root, can't you? | 15:43 |
| zykotick9 | rescept: what did you use to try adding yourself to the www-data group exactly? | 15:43 |
| rescept | varunendra: yes it was going there | 15:43 |
| urzg | hey varunendra | 15:43 |
| rescept | zykotick9: i missed the -a part i guess.. i used usermod -g www-data iiro if i Recall | 15:43 |
| pfifo | xeeder, run 'sudo apt-get update' then 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' | 15:44 |
| zykotick9 | rescept: ya, missing -a. i'd suggest you learn to use "sudo adduser USERNAME GROUP" in future, less dangerous. | 15:44 |
| xeeder | pfifo, its useless :/ this is what i get: "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." | 15:45 |
| rescept | varunendra: i logged in there and then i tried to write /etc/sudoers file but it wasnt writeable or smt | 15:46 |
| pfifo | xeeder, pastebin that error and also you /etc/apt/sources.list | 15:46 |
| zykotick9 | rescept: see http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 15:47 |
| urzg | hey :d | 15:47 |
| varunendra | rescept, did you read the askubuntu post I linked to? Is there problem while following those steps? There shouldn't be when you are in root console. | 15:47 |

| mitch-_ | ok so it's just a space | 16:01 |
| mitch-_ | ok thank you pfifo | 16:01 |
| varunendra | rescept, the "read-only filesystem" seems to be the key. IIRC, there is an option to boot into root console with r/w access. | 16:01 |
| BluesKaj | thirtythreeforty, have you updated/upgraded since the install | 16:01 |
| thirtythreeforty | It's an embedded Freescale system, I'm stuck on 11.04, BluesKaj, but yeah I'm updating now. | 16:03 |

| zamba | and the files are being owned by nobody:nogroup | 16:12 |
| Manny2013 | Is there a way to install 13.04 with wubi? | 16:13 |
| oaulakh | yeah there is way | 16:13 |
| xeeder | pfifo, error is still there :/ | 16:13 |
| Manny2013 | I've been trying without success | 16:14 |
| oaulakh | which windows you using? | 16:14 |
| Manny2013 | 7 | 16:14 |
| pfifo | xeeder, not sure then, could be all your PPA's | 16:14 |
| xeeder | pfifo, there is something new: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6137206/ | 16:14 |
| oaulakh | windows version? | 16:14 |

| pfifo | xeeder, then im not seeing your entire sources.list in the pastebin you gave me | 16:16 |
| Manny2013 | oaulakh: any info? | 16:16 |
| oaulakh | do you have dual boot already? | 16:16 |
| oaulakh | or single windows system? | 16:16 |
| xeeder | pfifo, what do you think the reason behind this error? is it because i install PPA packages? | 16:16 |
| Manny2013 | No | 16:16 |
| Manny2013 | single windows | 16:16 |
| oaulakh | just download the wubi from ubuntu.com | 16:17 |
| pfifo | xeeder, if one of these PPA's installs its own python, or depends on the old python, it could create this conflict | 16:17 |
| oaulakh | if single windows | 16:17 |
| oaulakh | then its much easy | 16:17 |
| Manny2013 | I did and didn't work | 16:17 |
| oaulakh | download ubuntu | 16:18 |
| oaulakh | mount iso | 16:18 |

| oaulakh | copy that wubi setup extra in somewhere you save your downloaded iso | 16:19 |

| pfifo | xeeder, well you can delete that line you put in it to get rid of the warning, but as for you original issue I dont have a fix, I still think its the PPA's | 16:28 |
| BluesKaj | Manny2013,^ | 16:28 |
| Manny2013 | no VM please, I want the true experience | 16:28 |
| pfifo | optical mice dont work on glass tables? this is bullcrap! | 16:29 |
| auronandace | Manny2013: if you want the true experience then install natively, wubi is certainly not the true experience | 16:29 |
| xeeder | pfifo, whats the solution then? reinstall? or recovery mode? | 16:29 |
| BluesKaj | Manny2013, then a true dualboot is ubuntu beside windows on it's own partition , ubuntu doesn't need windows to run | 16:29 |
| hplc | what to use insted of md5 to verify a file? | 16:30 |
| Manny2013 | hplc sha | 16:30 |
| pfifo | xeeder, if your willing to reinstall, yeah that will work, avoid PPA's in the future, they create havok if your not a super user | 16:30 |
| xeeder | Manny2013, i am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with Windows 8 (in dual boot) ; you can do that yourself its pretty easy: just remember this>>install windows first and then install ubuntu using usb or dvd | 16:30 |
| Manny2013 | if you have the sha hash | 16:30 |
| Manny2013 | oaulakh: i'm helping hplc out, sorry | 16:31 |
| hplc | Manny2013, i thought so too, but in articles sha is mentioned to be no better, atleast in keys less than 1024? dont know if its true thou | 16:31 |
| xeeder | pfifo, if i reinstall my current partition will automatically recreated and reformated or i have to do that manually? | 16:31 |
| Manny2013 | not yet, I'll be installing on this same machine | 16:32 |
| pfifo | xeeder, i dont know I havent installed ubuntu with the installer in years, I would expect it to do it for you. | 16:32 |
| Manny2013 | hplc: nope SHA > MD5, try sha-512 | 16:32 |
| hplc | Manny2013, ok, thanks :) | 16:32 |
| Manny2013 | hplc: but you need the hash to verify | 16:33 |
| BluesKaj | xeeder, recommend manual if you have other OS(s)/partitions on the drive | 16:33 |
| Manny2013 | sorry guys, must leave now, but...I WILL be back | 16:33 |

| hplc | Manny2013, yes, thats true | 16:33 |
| dinosaurvskitten | ever since I upgraded to 13.04, video performance has been sporadically bad. What usually happens is that everything works fine after bootup, but as soon as I suspend and resume, I get gpu hung errors in my X log, chrome video becomes sluggish (not firefox though...). Any ideas? This is on a macbook air from ~2011 (integrated intel card, i915 driver) | 16:33 |
| dinosaurvskitten | mplayer also fails with "X11 error: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)" and "Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" unless I use -vo x11.

| dman777_alter | sorry, i'm rather new to ubunutu. at my work, i installed uwsgi which is uWSGI 1.0.3-debian. this is considered pretty old. how could i update it without compileing it manually? | 17:03 |
| Tex_Nick | exalt: as bwayne stated ... your question seems a bit ambiguous ... you might provide more details | 17:05 |
| bwayne | dman777_alter: 'aptitude versions uwsgi' only shows 1.0.3 | 17:05 |
| cordyceps | using 'for FILE in *; do mv "$FILE" "$(echo $FILE | sed -e 's/ /_g')"; done' to remove whitespace. Works fine under /home but give "permission denied" error under /media. So I used sudo; got "syntax error near unexpected token 'do'". How to fix? | 17:06 |
| dman777_alter | bwayne: on uwsgi, they said that was pretty old and had some bugs. how could i upgrade on ubuntu without manually compileing? | 17:06 |
| bwayne | dman777_alter: let me do a little research. | 17:08 |
| dewilman | hi buddies | 17:10 |
| dman777_alter | bwayne: thanks! | 17:11 |
| jrib | cordyceps: use rename instead of what you are doing | 17:11 |
| jrib | cordyceps: or use bash parameter expansion | 17:11 |

| OnkelTem | compdoc: already done you mean? | 17:17 |
| Marlenee | what is the best filemanager for running php file hosted on my server | 17:18 |

| wilee-nilee | no idea | 17:19 |
| dman777_alter | bwayne: hmm...after pip install uwsgi it is still uWSGI 1.0.3-debian | 17:19 |
| bwayne | dman777_alter: make sure you're using the one that's installed by pip. IIRC, pip installs to /usr/local/bin/. | 17:20 |

| jrib | thomas_: how do you log in? | 17:22 |
| OnkelTem | wilee-nilee: thanks a lot, very usefull! One question, "fstrim /" will affect only root filesystem or will recursively walk through other filesystems? | 17:22 |

| jrib | thomas_: i did not say to use unity | 17:24 |
| thomas_ | jrib: but its installing unity packages? | 17:25 |
| bwayne | thomas_: installing lightdm won't install unity. it's just a login manager. | 17:25 |
| thomas_ | oh okay | 17:25 |
| thomas_ | so lightdm doesnt use that much ram right? | 17:26 |

| Ari-Yang | ....xeeder, I think it can still be fixed without re-installing.... I mean re-installing ubuntu just because some packages are broken sounds odd... | 17:38 |
| Ari-Yang | xeeder, did you remove the ppa? | 17:39 |
| dman777_alter | bwayne: i did a locate uwsgi | grep bin and looked at all of them(after upatedb) | 17:39 |
| bwayne | xeeder: i guess all i'll do this time is to say to look into laptop-mode-tools | 17:39 |
| xeeder | Ari-Yang, i am now using newly installed ubuntu | 17:39 |

| wilee-nilee | juboba, did it come with windows 8? | 17:50 |
| juboba | yes | 17:51 |
| varunendra | juboba, the summary of all you'd need - download the desired ISO (you'll need 64 bit) > create a live USB or DVD from the ISO > boot from it in live (test) mode, and see if all your hardware works properly with it. If you are satisfied, install with any of the partitioning options available (I recommend manual partitioning). | 17:51 |
| juboba | varunendra, and how do I get along with UEFI? | 17:51 |

| RedPanda_ | thomas_, to login, you can choose between lightdm, gdm, kdm, slim, etc... | 18:40 |

| thomas_ | RedPanda_: the ID ^^ | 18:41 |
| RedPanda_ | understood | 18:41 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, I think you should try to use the basic 'vesa' driver | 18:44 |
| thomas_ | RedPanda_ how do I do that? | 18:45 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, that's what i'm looking for, since 'xorg.conf' is no more used | 18:45 |
| thomas_ | but yea. this ran an unregistered copy of win xp before this. video output worked fine. | 18:46 |

| Rory | /ignore #ubuntu MODES JOINS PARTS QUITS | 18:50 |
| RedPanda_ | If anyone knows how to get back to 'vesa' driver | 18:51 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, you could try removing savage/s3 related drivers and restart xorg (by restart lightdm). It could go back to vesa | 18:53 |
| thomas_ | RedPanda_: and if it doesnt? | 18:54 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, can't be worse :p | 18:54 |
| thomas_ | oh so xorg isnt all video just the gui? | 18:54 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, why "fluxbox" by the way ? | 18:54 |

| RedPanda_ | know* | 19:00 |
| thomas_ | well how do I "blacklist" the driver? | 19:00 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, here's what I would try : lsmod | grep s3 (to find the driver name) | 19:00 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 19:00 |
| RedPanda_ | thomas_, add "blacklist $myS3driver" | 19:01 |

| thomas_ | or...what module am i looking for? | 19:02 |

Is there a program that can copy thoroughly? | 19:31 |

| PimpSmurf | owen_: dd could make copy the whole disk images to your hdd, which could them be mounted for retreival. "cp" should not give errors unless the disk or drive has errors (or the memory/cpu! ) | 19:32 |
| RedPanda_ | owen_, rsync is way better than "cp" | 19:33 |

| kenshiro | Hi, I think I had found a bug and the fix, just write to share it. In Ubuntu 12.10, 13.04, and Ubuntu 12.04 with quantal and raring hardware enablement stacks, I had detected a low sound problem in my card. Asus Xonar DS. Running alsamixer, I discovered that by default, alsa enable Stereo Upmixing to "Front+Surround" speakers, so part of the sound is lost if only 2 speakers are used. The fix is just press down key in that secti | 19:48 |
| kenshiro | on so Upmixing is set only to "Front". I propose default configuration for alsa upmixing should be always "Front" only. | 19:48 |

| hplc | ikonia is it a http://localhost:??? | 19:53 |
| ikonia_ | hplc: what does the documentation tell you to do in regard to setting it up ? | 19:53 |
| hplc | ikonia thats another weird thing, theres no man page as far as i can see | 19:54 |

| ikonia_ | hplc READING the documentation would be a good start | 19:56 |
| RedPanda_ | hplc, Roundcube is a web application, so it runs with Apache2/Nginx, or else | 19:56 |
| RedPanda_ | hplc, you should have a local web server, a directory for roundcube and a database roundcube could use | 19:57 |

| Fyodorovna | yes | 20:15 |
| Sadodah | i use Catia | 20:15 |
| Maple__ | could you pastebin the output of lsblk? | 20:15 |
| nikki452 | i cannot use alsamixer or mocp without being root. i added my user to the audio group but no luck. what else to do? | 20:15 |
| Sadodah | catia can't be in ubuntu or other gnu/linuxes | 20:15 |
| Maple__ | If it's dual-booted, you can just delete the partition with ubuntu on it | 20:15 |
| Maple__ | Sadodah, actually, it can. | 20:16 |
| Maple__ | http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=28516 | 20:16 |
| Maple__ | Install wine. | 20:16 |
| ss_haze | Sadodah: you can use gparted on any live cd to make changes to partition, and then, use windows partition manager (which I don't trust anymore), to make windows use the rest of space as partition | 20:16 |
| Sadodah | ok i need performance | 20:16 |
| Sadodah | what about grub? | 20:16 |
| Maple__ | you mean, removing grub entries? | 20:17 |
| Sadodah | my bootloader is grub | 20:17 |
| weirdpercent | hi, I'm trying to get audio working on an Intel Sandybridge chipset. I see the audio device in lspci but not in Sound control panel. any ideas? | 20:17 |
| republican_devil | alsamixer | 20:18 |
| republican_devil | m keu | 20:18 |
| ss_haze | weirdpercent: install alsa control panel | 20:18 |
| republican_devil | key | 20:18 |
| Sadodah | my bootloader should be fixed after formatting | 20:18 |
| Sadodah | i wanna remove grub | 20:18 |
| ss_haze | Sadodah, do as you wish, but no need to comment | 20:18 |
| Sadodah | how can i remove grub and replace it with windows one? | 20:19 |
| weirdpercent | ss_haze: is that in a specific package, and if so what's it called? I've got quite a few alsa things installed already | 20:19 |
| Fyodorovna | Sadodah, ask in ##windows | 20:20 |
| ss_haze | weirdpercent: if you have intel sandy bridge, sound should be working already, anyway, try adding some driver repos | 20:20 |
| Sadodah | ok O_o | 20:20 |
| weirdpercent | ss_haze: ok thanks | 20:20 |
| * Maple__ wonders why someone would want the windows bootloader back | 20:21 | |
| nikki452 | i cannot use alsamixer or mocp without being root. i added my user to the audio group but no luck. what else to do? | 20:22 |
| Fyodorovna | to boot windows only, they are on the wrong channel | 20:22 |
| ss_haze | nikki452: pavucontrol? | 20:22 |
| nikki452 | ss_haze: not familiar, is that a package | 20:24 |
| ss_haze | nikki452: thats pulse audio control | 20:24 |
| Eagleman | Is there a way to setup a system to drop like for example 10% of the packets on a specific port? | 20:25 |
| nikki452 | ss_haze: i need pulseaudio and alsa? i thought just alsa. sorry for my noob. | 20:28 |
| ss_haze | nikki452: you need volume controll right? | 20:30 |
| nikki452 | ss_haze: i just cant use any audio unless im root | 20:30 |
| nikki452 | or use sudo, obviously | 20:31 |
| nikki452 | i thought adding the user to audio group was all that was needed | 20:31 |
| Eagleman | Is there a way to setup a system to drop like for example 10% of the packets on a specific port? | 20:33 |
| republican_devil | your isp has technology called quality of service to screw your packets liek that | 20:34 |

| vmusr | enthdegree, a wild guess would be to use a loader | 20:55 |

| vmusr | enthdegree, either to permanently install a bootloader on the Mac, or load it on boot and then point to your driver | 20:56 |

| gregor3005 | wilee-nilee: with the software-center | 21:12 |
| loa | risko, 4gb | 21:12 |
| wilee-nilee | gregor3005, the plugin? | 21:12 |
| risko | loa, get Xubuntu's 32bit. | 21:12 |
| kostkon | loa, what's the cpu and graphics card | 21:12 |
| risko | loa, Xubuntu runs lightning-fast on notebooks, Ubuntu is kinda resource-hungry and would run abit slow. | 21:12 |
| loa | risko, 32bit will support 4gb? | 21:12 |
| wilee-nilee | loa, you can install any version with that amount of ram. | 21:12 |

| risko | loa, if you want to use more than 3gb, use 64bit. | 21:13 |
| wilee-nilee | gregor3005, Install the ubuntu-restricted-extras it has more codecs, and the ms-fonts. | 21:13 |
| risko | loa, if you use the 32bit version, Xubuntu/any other distro will only use 3gb of your RAM. | 21:13 |
| kostkon | risko, actually no, the 32bit kernel is pae so i can support more than 3gb | 21:13 |
| risko | use 64bit to use your full-ram. | 21:13 |

| wilee-nilee | treehau55, This have proprietary graphic drivers per-chance, sounds like multiple problems maybe. | 21:37 |
| treehau55 | austinbv, check the man page, the --build flag is probably just an alias, they are both probably the same | 21:37 |
| austinbv | treehau55: deb-dpkg and deb-buildpackage require totally different source organization | 21:38 |

| wilee-nilee | !nomodeset | treehau55 maybe try this | 21:39 |

| WillTablet | What is the fastest way to set up a VPN on my server? I am on my tablet atm and need a vpn and free ones are so sloow | 22:12 |
| Ben64 | !openvpn | WillTablet | 22:12 |
| ubottu | WillTablet: OpenVPN is a vpn technology in Ubuntu, sudo apt-get install openvpn and then see http://openvpn.net/ and see the documentation "HOWTO" noting you have already installed it. ;-) It rocks! | 22:12 |
| livingtank | yep | 22:13 |

| duanedesign | how do you change your ssh login password? | 22:15 |
| reisio | if you aren't using keys, just 'passwd' | 22:16 |
| reisio | but you should use keys :) | 22:16 |
| duanedesign | reisio: I keep getting passwd: Authentication token manipulation error | 22:16 |
| reisio | mmm, errors, errors are bad | 22:16 |
| dougbb | WillTablet: vpns are always going to be slower than line speed by definition ... openvpn is generally considered the best option, and there are various things you can configure which may improve the speed (although sometimes at the cost of security) | 22:16 |

| xirre | So I used DDoS Deflater to aid in mitigating some attacks. At first when I ran it there was an error. I had to edit ddos.sh so that the first line was #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh so that it would work. After that it said that usr/local/apf/apf wasn't able to be located. I hadn't installed the apf-firewall. Now I installed it, changed the DDoS Deflater directory to APF="/usr/sbin/apf" since that's the usage directory for the | 22:19 |
| xirre | command "apf" and then ran the command "ddos" to test it. I used my phone to DoS myself for testing and apparently I got this error now. | 22:19 |

| Ben64 | brandonabandon: speak english... if your iso is unreadable, download it again, verify md5sum | 22:23 |
| xirre | I'm trying to find out what chain is trying to be accessed by APF Firewall when it tries to block the IP. I've done my research by googling the error and also checking most of the files from APF Firewall and (D)DoS Deflater but apparently I can't find it. I've been attacked a lot by hateful people. :/ | 22:23 |
| brandonabandon | must verify? | 22:24 |
| Ben64 | if you're having problems with it, its a good idea | 22:24 |
| Flannel | xirre: I would start by adding a lot of debug statements (extra echos, etc) to that script, and then running it manually (not with cron, but just manually) | 22:24 |
| Ben64 | !md5sum | brandonabandon | 22:24 |
| ubottu | brandonabandon: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 22:24 |
| WillTablet | Actually it seems to long winded to install a vpn | 22:25 |
| xirre | Yeah, I've tried using vi and gedit to change up some stuff but the mainnn problem here is that I can't find where exactly it's calling iptables. | 22:25 |
| brandonabandon | thanks. | 22:25 |
| Flannel | xirre: At this point, you're debugging a bash program that interfaces with ip tables/apf. It's unlikely anyone here has experience with DDOS Deflate. | 22:25 |
| Ben64 | WillTablet: vpn is probably not what you want | 22:25 |
| Flannel | xirre: Line 54, looks like. | 22:26 |
| xirre | Flannel: Line 54 of which file? | 22:26 |

| WillTablet | Sorry | 22:29 |

| Drajwer | how do I upgrade my ubuntu 12.04.2 to 12.04.3? | 22:37 |
| Ben64 | Drajwer: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 22:38 |
| zykotick9 | Drajwer: if there happens to be a kernel updated included, you'll need to use "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" instead of Ben64's second command, update. | 22:40 |
| zykotick9 | Drajwer: sorry, i make a typo. the update is correct, it's the upgrade that "may" not be complete... depends on the updates involved. | 22:44 |
| xirre | After doing some more digging on APF-Firewall, I've come to the conclusion that that there may be a problem with this program. apf(23376): {glob} kernel version not equal to 2.4.x or 2.6.x, aborting. | 22:48 |
| xirre | When I turn on apf, I get that error. Does anyone know why? | 22:48 |

| guenhael | does anyone use virtualbox? | 22:55 |
| xirre | guenhael: I do. | 22:55 |
| rizal | guenhael, i do ... | 22:55 |
| guenhael | I don't understand why my virtual hard drive is not updated when I switch off my virtual machine | 22:55 |
| guenhael | the virtual hard drivre is in normal mode | 22:55 |
| guenhael | and I don't have any snapshot for that machine | 22:56 |
| guenhael | most of the time, the changes are saved when the virtual machine is switched off | 22:56 |
| xirre | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apf-firewall/+bug/878729 - Found a solution. | 22:56 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 878729 in apf-firewall (Ubuntu) "Does not start with 3.x kernel" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 22:56 |
| guenhael | but I don't know why it doesn't update it anymore... | 22:56 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: Wait for it to be updated, possibly find a different firewall. | 22:56 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: A linux firewall is really only useful when you're running it as a router. | 22:57 |
| wilee-nilee | guenhael, Have you filled the container maybe? | 22:57 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: What do you mean it's not updated? Do you mean changes you make to the system revert to a previous session? | 22:57 |
| guenhael | no, it doesn't revert to a previous session | 22:58 |
| xirre | guenhael: What problem is occurring? Loss of data? | 22:58 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: It's not like windows where you need to block or control arbitrary ports, the system inherently does that. | 22:58 |
| guenhael | but the virtual hard drive file is not updated | 22:58 |
| guenhael | the changes are saved somewhere else | 22:59 |
| guenhael | I don't know why since the disc is in normal mode | 22:59 |
| jhutchins | Er, I'm getting nics mixed up, aren't I? | 22:59 |
| guenhael | so there is no lost of data | 22:59 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: What is telling you it's not updated? | 22:59 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: How can you tell? | 22:59 |
| guenhael | the date of the last modification of my file | 22:59 |
| xirre | I'm still confused as to what it is you're asking. | 23:00 |
| rizal | guenhael, what version virtualbox are your use ? | 23:00 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: What is the host OS? | 23:00 |
| guenhael | ubuntu 12.04 virtualbox 4.2.12 | 23:01 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: It's possible that the changes have yet to be flushed from the host's cache. | 23:01 |
| jhutchins | !virtualbox | 23:01 |
| jhutchins | Blast. | 23:01 |
| ubottu | Virtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 23:01 |
| wilee-nilee | guenhael, You might ask in #vbox, I think you have filled the container possibly, have you checked. | 23:02 |
| xirre | guenhael, what error are you getting? Could you repeat the question? | 23:02 |
| jhutchins | http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/User_FAQ | 23:02 |
| jhutchins | http://www.virtualbox.org/ #vbox on irc.freenode.net. | 23:02 |
| guenhael | I don't know what it is wilee-nilee and I asked them but there is nobody there | 23:03 |
| rizal | genhael, maybe you can tried old version ... | 23:03 |
| guenhael | xirre I have absolutly no error and no data lost | 23:03 |
| wilee-nilee | guenhael, go to the vdi or whatever format and right click the properties. | 23:03 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: I think #vbox tends to be busier on weekdays during euro-american business hours. | 23:03 |
| guenhael | but the modifications are not saved in the virtual hard drive file when I switch off the virtual OS | 23:04 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: They must be saved somewhere. | 23:04 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: Like I said, they could still be in the ram buffer on the host. | 23:04 |
| xirre | guenhael: Are you curious as to where your vbox is saved? | 23:04 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: The only issue you see is that the timestamp doesn't change, right? | 23:04 |
| xirre | That's what I'm wondering too. | 23:05 |
| xirre | VBox has trouble with keeping time. Sometimes when I leave it on it goes back a day and I have to manually update it. | 23:05 |
| jhutchins | xirre: That's always been a problem with VMs. | 23:06 |
| jhutchins | xirre: The big commercial ones have pretty well solved it. | 23:06 |
| rizal | guenhael, do you have check the storage virtualbox? | 23:06 |
| guenhael | yes jhutchins | 23:06 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: I wouldn't worry about it. It's just some housekeeping error on the host, it doesn't see the changes even though they're made. | 23:07 |
| guenhael | what do you call the storage virtualbox? | 23:07 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: You might try issuing the sync command - and make sure you're checking it via console, not a gui file manager. | 23:07 |

| ubottu | alejandro: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 23:08 |
| jhutchins | alejandro_: Is the question about Ubuntu? | 23:08 |
| guenhael | you mean you think the file is actually updated but the last modification time written is wrong? | 23:08 |
| jhutchins | guenhael: Something like that. Especially if you're looking at it with a GUI. | 23:09 |
| rizal | guenhael, you can find storage in settings | 23:09 |
| guenhael | no jhutchins for 2 reasons | 23:10 |
| guenhael | first of all, if I unplug this virtual hard drive and put it immutable and plug it in again | 23:10 |
| guenhael | then I will lost my last modification | 23:10 |
| guenhael | that clearly mean, there wasn't written on it | 23:10 |
| guenhael | and secondly I just saw there are snapshots in the snapshot directory of my virtual machine | 23:11 |
| guenhael | I didn't created them | 23:11 |
| guenhael | they don't appear in the snapshot menu of virtual box | 23:11 |
| guenhael | there are automatically created by virtualbox I guess and I don't know why | 23:11 |
| guenhael | and there last modification time are all older than the one of my virtual hard drive file | 23:12 |
| zykotick9 | guenhael: this really sounds like a question for #vbox at this point... | 23:12 |
| rizal | guenhael, try this reinstall virtualbox with old version | 23:12 |
| guenhael | they are sleeping | 23:13 |
| guenhael | I will try something... | 23:13 |

| Nothing_Much | I have a question, can the Arm version of Ubuntu be upgraded by simply putting in the terminal: sudo do-release-upgrade ? | 23:17 |
| guenhael | it is working :) | 23:17 |
| guenhael | I switched off the VM | 23:17 |
| guenhael | unpluged the virtual HD | 23:18 |
| reisio | Nothing_Much: should be the same process as on any other arch | 23:18 |
| guenhael | deleted all the associated snapshots from the snapshot directory | 23:18 |
| zykotick9 | Nothing_Much: you might want to ask the #ubuntu-arm channel... | 23:18 |
| Nothing_Much | zykotick9, That exists? | 23:18 |
| guenhael | I pluged the HD in again | 23:18 |
| Nothing_Much | Thanks | 23:18 |
| guenhael | and switched the VM | 23:19 |
| guenhael | now the modification are well writed directly on the virtual hard drive | 23:19 |
