[00:04] <unknown__> Thanks guys, I'll let you know if It works or not
[00:07] <skinux> What does it mean to "delete the link libstdc++.so.6 , and use a replacement that works
[00:07] <skinux> with your glibc" ?
[00:07] <Anders_> Hello. I am a total beginner at this, I was so happy with my ubuntu, but now adobe flash player are not working as it should I think. I have tried a few solutions, but it does not work. I run 12.4 32 bit, and I have installed google chrome, but the flash isue are the same there.
[00:09] <Fyodorovna> Anders_, tell us what you have tried.
[00:09] <Fyodorovna> and the problems you are seeing
[00:10] <Anders_> I have tried installing chrome. Then I tried a turtorial includin a command "sudo nautilus" witch I got a eror message for, and I could not paste...
[00:10] <zippo^> do you know how can I setting: xinput set-prop 12 "Device Enabled" 0 from automatic. next time I don t next again type via the terminal: xinput set-prop 12 "Device Enabled" 0 ?
[00:12] <Anders_> I get this: Initializing nautilus-gdu extension Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error No such file or directory Please ask your system administrator to enable user sharing.
[00:15] <zykotick9> Anders_: NEVER use sudo with a GUI application, use "gksudo foo" instead.  see "/msg ubottu gksudo" for details.
[00:17] <Anders_> he he he, I don't understand anything. Time for me to buy windows 7 32 bit or a mac book I think. Is there a place to go to get direct help with ubuntu. Some one can take over my computer for ashort time and set it up corectly?
[00:18] <seanicus> Anders_: absolutely terrible idea
[00:18] <Fyodorovna> Dr_Willis: you see the lagfix for android, optimizer?
[00:19] <Fyodorovna> did you that is
[00:19] <Johnny_Linux> Anders_  stay with it, its a learning curve yes, but in a couple weeks when you get the hang of it, itl be like a new cadilac
[00:21] <Anders_> So if I reinstall, is it smart to take a back up right away after updates to save time the next time I mess up a command.
[00:21] <Johnny_Linux> yes
[00:22] <Johnny_Linux> also Anders_ , formthe extra codecs and whatnot, when and after you reinstall, install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:22] <Johnny_Linux> this way you will have everything in the nedia department you are sued to.
[00:23] <Johnny_Linux> used*
[00:23] <Fyodorovna> Anders_ you could clone it, many of us go through this, just be sure you only run commands you research, ask here if needed.
[00:24] <Anders_> Ok thank you all
[00:29] <Samizdatguy> think I'm having some kernel issues. Random key will stick from time to time, and music will randomly drop out for a couple seconds every so often.
[00:29] <Samizdatguy> I'm running kubuntu 13.10 beta, but have had this issue before.
[00:34] <master> ola alguem
[00:34] <fahadash> Samizdatguy: Is kubuntu better than the one out there which is running gnome2 I guess ?
[00:40] <michagogo> Would anyone happen to know, when using vmbuilder, if I already have the ISO and want to use the --iso option, should it be the ISO for 10.04, or for 10.04.4?
[00:41] <master> ok
[00:42] <dianq> (TOdiana pc
[00:44] <dianq> TPC AnKnow
[00:45] <bindi> any way to graph how much traffic I am doing daily/monthly/yearly on each of my interfaces?
[00:46] <michagogo> Would anyone happen to know, when using vmbuilder, if I already have the ISO and want to use the --iso option, should it be the ISO for 10.04, or for 10.04.4?
[00:47] <zykotick9> michagogo: probably, using 10.04.* is a bad idea at this point... why use something so old?
[00:47] <michagogo> zykotick9: For gitian
[00:47] <michagogo> I'm not going to be working in it, just putting it in an lxc container for gitian deterministic builds
[00:50] <michagogo> Put it another way: does `vmbuilder kvm ubuntu` download 10.04 or 10.04.4?
[00:55] <michagogo> bah, what keeps killing my connections?
[00:56] <speaker123> below the global title bar in unity, i am seeing a black horizontal line
[00:56] <speaker123> it cuts off programs which are maximized. anyone experience this?
[00:56] <michagogo> Did anyone respond to me? if so, I missed it
[00:56] <speaker123> mouse clicks make the line flicker away
[00:58] <qingluo> hi all, im in ubuntu 12.04 LTS desktop. i have uninstall default emacs and emacs23 by apt-get remove emacs emacs23 -y  apt-get purge emacs emacs23. and i build&&install emacs24.3 from source code. but when i install any plugins.ubuntu will still install to emacs23's folder which i rm before and report error. how can i let the os know im not using emacs23 anymore?
[01:00] <cadaver> qingluo, If you installed emacs compilling it, you need to install plugints the same way
[01:01] <qingluo> cadaver: o thank u
[01:05] <XMLnewbi> startx command not found, start LDXE unkown job
[01:06] <XMLnewbi> I spent the last 20 min installing ldxe now do I start it?
[01:08] <AiriA> XMLnewbi: Try looking this: http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Ubuntu
[01:09] <AiriA> Hope that helps.
[01:10] <OerHeks> logout, change DM to lxde ( why not xubuntu-desktop?) and login
[01:10] <XMLnewbi> thx, i got it, just needed to reboot.
[01:10] <AiriA> Yep, reboots fix everything lol..
[01:12] <wilee-nilee> XMLnewbi, choose it at the login at the gear menu.
[01:12] <Ari-Yang> wilee is right, you don't have to reboot at all..
[01:17] <setuid> anyone know where I can find freerdp-x11 in Lucid?
[01:17] <cfhowlett> !lucid
[01:17] <wilee-nilee> setuid, this a server?
[01:19] <michagogo> grrrr
[01:20] <michagogo> I can't decipher the maze of code that is http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vmbuilder-dev/vmbuilder/0.12/files/head:/VMBuilder/ (or maybe it's http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vmbuilder-dev/vmbuilder/0.12/files/head:/VMBuilder/plugins/ubuntu/ ) to figure out whether vmbuilder, by default, uses 10.04 or 10.04.4
[01:21] <setuid> wilee-nilee, No
[01:22] <setuid> wilee-nilee, Need to be able to run rdp as a client -from- that host to another Windows machine
[01:22] <setuid> Lucid was (and still is) the fastest/most-stable Ubuntu, so that's what we use and recommend here.
[01:22] <cjwelborn> next ubuntu LTS release? 13.10?
[01:23] <wilee-nilee> setuid, 10.04 desktop is way end of life.
[01:24] <setuid> wilee-nilee, shrug, still works, and we'll continue to use, recommend and roll it out. Everything that came after, is slow, focused on eye-candy, and doesn't bring much value.
[01:24] <cfhowlett> cjwelborn, 14.04 will be next LTS
[01:24] <wilee-nilee> not in the main repos is all setuid
[01:24] <setuid>  Alright, we'll build and package it from source ourselves, thanks
[01:24] <wilee-nilee> setuid, Your sarcasm is noted and a waste of time here, by the way.
[01:24] <Johnny_Linux> setuid  12.04 lts is just as good for me
[01:25] <michagogo> Is anyone familiar with `vmbuilder`?
[01:25] <cjwelborn> cfhowlett: thanks.
[01:26] <setuid> Nothing in my statement indicated any sarcasm, but you're free to interpret it how you wish, this is irc after all
[01:29] <nezZario> anyone ever put ubuntu on a chromebook?
[01:30] <AiriA> Yes. It works quite well.
[01:34] <uman> How can I see which versino of a package is in the repos?
[01:34] <cfhowlett> uman, apt-cache policy versino
[01:34] <cfhowlett> uman, in a terminal, of course
[01:35] <uman> cfhowlett: thanks, terminal is what i wanted
[01:35] <uman> (don't have any DE installed)
[01:35] <cfhowlett> uman, hardcore!
[01:36] <uman> cfhowlett: not really, I use OSX as my main machine, this is just on a virt :)
[01:36] <cfhowlett> uman, ah!  questions for you, I have!  may we PM?
[01:37] <uman> cfhowlett: sure, i'm not actually using ubuntu though
[01:37] <michagogo> Is anyone familiar with `vmbuilder`?
[01:37] <uman> i'm on debian, i just came here because it's way bigger and i knew the answer to my question would be the same
[01:37] <cfhowlett> uman, oh.  OK.  nvm
[01:38] <Dr_Willis> uman:  we even got a factoid
[01:38] <Dr_Willis> !version
[01:38] <uman> Dr_Willis: :)
[01:42] <kg3> anyone here have experience getting blowfish working on irssi in 13.04? i'm trying to compile it fish from source, and it's asking for a '/usr/local/include/glib-1.2' but I can't find out how to make that happen
[01:43] <jrib> kg3: why are you compiling it?
[01:43] <kg3> because i can't get blowjob or blowssi to work either
[01:43] <jrib> kg3: how did you try?
[01:44] <kg3> loading .pl, setting keys. after having all required apps installed
[01:45] <jrib> kg3: loading what .pl?  How?
[01:47] <sudoICRON> So when is the ubuntu edge releasing? Looks amazing
[01:47] <uman> sudoICRON: never, the project was cancelled since it didn't raise enough money
[01:47] <kg3> first i installed irssi-scripts using apt-get, then /load blowjob.pl
[01:47] <cfhowlett> sudoICRON, ???? no
[01:48] <keeb> i'm trying to make a liveusb using usb-creator-gtk and it is consistently hanging on "Installing the bootloader"
[01:48] <sudoICRON> dan
[01:48] <sudoICRON> *damn
[01:48] <kg3> jrib: first i installed irssi-scripts using apt-get, then /load blowjob.pl
[01:48] <keeb> is there a link to doing this manually? I'd much prefer that instead of this terrible ui
[01:48] <jrib> kg3: and then?
[01:48] <cfhowlett> keeb, hanging?  how long did you wait?
[01:49] <keeb> cfhowlett: i did the manually for a gentoo image and it took about 3 seconds
[01:49] <cfhowlett> keeb, it takes time and it DOES appear to be stuck, but it's working in the background.
[01:49] <keeb> right now it's been "installing the bootloader" for about 5 minutes.
[01:49] <keeb> cfhowlett: ok
[01:49] <cfhowlett> keeb, sounds about right.  give it another few minutes before you call it.
[01:49] <kg3> jrib: then tried using blowssi from here, http://www.linkerror.com/programs/blowssi-0.1.0.tar.bz2 , using these instructions, http://mewbies.com/how_to_install_blowssi_for_irssi_tutorial.htm
[01:49] <jrib> kg3: why did you give up on blowjob.pl?
[01:50] <kg3> wasn't decoding. has mcps and +OK msgs
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> keeb:   the pendrivelinux site has altenative tools. and guides
[01:50] <L3d> multisystem i use in ubuntu
[01:50] <keeb> cfhowlett: looks like i was being impatient :) thanks for confirming
[01:50] <keeb> still not sure why that takes so long
[01:51] <keeb> dd if=/path/to/image of=/dev/sdb
[01:51] <jrib> kg3: did you check bug tracker for issues against it?
[01:51] <cfhowlett> keeb, poor interface design that doesn't show the progression or percentage/time to completion
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> keeb:  dd? you dident use a bs=4M option?
[01:51] <keeb> Dr_Willis: i was just giving an example of how it's done for gentoo
[01:52] <keeb> cfhowlett: thanks again :]
[01:52] <Dr_Willis> keeb:  dd works for ubuntu also
[01:52] <kg3> jrib: i didn't find anything
[01:53] <jrib> kg3: did you come across http://blog.phrog.org/2008/02/01/irc-with-irssi-and-a-blowjob/ it's old, but check it out
[01:53] <keeb> anyway, i decided that an XPS13 deserves ubuntu installed instead of gentoo :] <3 sputnik project
[01:53] <cfhowlett> keeb, how's that working out?
[01:54] <keeb> cfhowlett: installation is occurring right now, so i'll let you know
[01:54] <keeb> but so far it's a beautiful thing
[01:54] <kg3> jrib: i've spent 5 hours googling, i've come across everything to do with it. i'm only here as a last resort.
[01:54] <keeb> i absolutely love it
[01:54] <jrib> keeb: that's a "yes"?
[01:55] <keeb> jrib: whats a yes bro?
[01:55] <jrib> kg3: that's a "yes"?
[01:56] <keeb> cfhowlett: although i'm a dumbass and left the charger at work
[01:56] <kg3> jrib: sorry. just wanted to let you know that i've tried exhausting web searches already. i'm not the type of person who asks for help without trying to help himself
[01:56] <jrib> kg3: sure, I'm just not sure if you've tried what that person suggests there; you may not have come across it
[01:57] <doily> sluts.
[01:58] <cfhowlett> doily, wrong channel
[01:58] <doily> yup
[01:58] <doily> lol

[02:14] <cfhowlett> keeb, eh?  not following the thread due to the krpstorm in this channel
[02:15] <keeb> you aasked me how i feel about the xps13
[02:15] <keeb> i just finished the ubuntu 13.04 install, it booted in less than 2 seconds
[02:15] <cfhowlett> keeb, ah, man, I am SO jealous.  I'm in Beijing, so getting hands on an xps13 is problematic and expensive
[02:16] <keeb> i hear ya
[02:21] <Demonicpagan> i have an asus G750JX and i've been trying to install Ubuntu 13.04 as a dual boot system. i've turned off fast boot, secure boot (with secure boot on, get a Binary is whitelisted message), boot under uefi and i can't get into a live ubuntu session to install the os, end up with just a black screen after selecting the "Try Ubuntu" option
[02:21] <cfhowlett> !nomodeset|Demonicpagan,   is a possibility
[02:21] <tacotyme> Hey all. I have a major problem. I have a computer with a 32-bit intel atom processor -- however, the manufacturers (HP) installed windows 8 with UEFI -- so... yeah... being that 32-bit ubuntu is not signed, I cannot run ubuntu! Please help!
[02:21] <Demonicpagan> i tried taht
[02:21] <Base-Dev> hello I have tried to install Ubuntu restricted extras, bout Truetype fonts arnt installed, ay other way to install them?
[02:22] <cfhowlett> Base-Dev, TRIED to install extras?  you couldn't?
[02:22] <Roy_Ubuntu_13-04> what file holds the setting for the mount path from when i set up the system, i want to change the location of where the windows partition mounts?
[02:23] <Demonicpagan> i replace the quiet splash with nomodeset and still black screen
[02:23] <Base-Dev> cfhowlett, ok, sorry I got it, I actually uninsalled restricted extras again :D
[02:28] <Freeaqingme> Hi folks. I just restarted my networking service (not sure if that's related), and then X server crashed. After a restart, all my graphics seem to be really slow. I have 1 terminal opened, but after dragging it a little, it is showed 5+ times: http://storage5.static.itmages.com/i/13/0924/h_1379989567_9043982_db3ee1957a.png (that image lasted >1 minute)
[02:28] <Freeaqingme> any clues how I can speed up my graphics again?
[02:28] <wiiw> how to rsync a sshd with port
[02:28] <Base-Dev> ok, who can and can't install Ubuntu restricted extras?
[02:29] <wilee-nilee> Base-Dev, You have the partner repos open?
[02:29] <wiiw> rsync -avz -e "ssh -p 2233 remoteuser@remotehost:/remote/dir /this/dir/ " did not work
[02:29] <Base-Dev> wilee-nilee, ?
[02:30] <wilee-nilee> Base-Dev, check the sources.list
[02:30] <wilee-nilee> gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:30] <Base-Dev> wilee-nilee, I mean to say who have rights to use ubuntu restricted extras
[02:30] <Base-Dev> wilee-nilee, and who dont
[02:31] <wilee-nilee> Base-Dev, check your local laws
[02:31] <Base-Dev> wilee-nilee, Ok
[02:32] <Demonicpagan> since this is a new laptop, shouldn't i be able to boot with secure boot on under 13.04?
[02:32] <wilee-nilee> !uefi | Demonicpagan
[02:33] <boeyc> I managed to setup a dual boot with windows, which has run fine after i use the bootloader fix with livecd. For some reason when i switch to windows, I end up with the same situation where i cannot get back into ubuntu without running another bootloader. any advice
[02:33] <Demonicpagan> baffles me why i get the "Binary is whitelisted" with it on
[02:34] <wilee-nilee> Demonicpagan, manufacturers have their own tweaked versions is all, here is some more info. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295
[02:34] <Roy_Ubuntu_13-04> Samba out of nowhere stop working, can someone help me debug it
[02:34] <wilee-nilee> boeyc, post the url of the bootinfo summary that is generated and you should be saving.
[02:35] <boeyc> ok ill rerun
[02:35] <wilee-nilee> boeyc, you can run just it.
[02:36] <Demonicpagan> am here under Demon|Tablet, gonna verify i'm using the nomodeset properly when editing the "Try Ubuntu" command
[02:36] <zykotick9> wiiw: ive never tried with a non-default ssh port, but have you tried "rync -avz -e ssh -p 2233 ..." i'd think your "" might be in the wrong places.
[02:36] <boeyc> yea, im just on my other pc and im on windows on the problem pc
[02:37] <wilee-nilee> boeyc, This W8 per-chance?
[02:37] <boeyc> wilee-nilee, I have a pirated version of windows btw, I do have a real cd key, would it be better if i updated it with my real key first?
[02:37] <boeyc> wilee-nilee, w7
[02:38] <wilee-nilee> boeyc, never use pirated software, I would get a legit download and install it.
[02:38] <boeyc> wilee-nilee, it was just quicker to install the copies
[02:38] <boeyc> wilee-nilee would that be the reason though? for bootloader issues
[02:38] <wilee-nilee> boeyc, I can't really help you now to be honest.
[02:39] <Dr_Willis> ive seen viruses in windows that mess with the MBR
[02:39] <Dr_Willis> or windows anti-virus stuff also ;)
[02:39] <thiebaude> ^^
[02:39] <Vidiot_X_USC> Is there a easy way to remove 'GRUB' ?
[02:40] <wilee-nilee> Vidiot_X_USC, why do you need to?
[02:40] <boeyc> wilee-nilee, ok i get it. I have paid for it, to me when i first put together the system, i did not care and used a pirated copy because it was quicker to install
[02:40] <wiiw> zykotick9: did not work
[02:40] <Vidiot_X_USC> Well I want to move linux to another system and set this one back up the way it was.
[02:41] <wilee-nilee> Vidiot_X_USC, why would you have to remove grub, this a dual boot and you want the boot of the other?
[02:41] <wilee-nilee> which is?
[02:41] <Demon|Tablet> this is what i have edited the "Try Ubuntu" command to use: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6148338/
[02:42] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, You can just hit f6 and choose nomodeset
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> Vidiot_X_USC:  install whatever bootloader for whatever os you want on that system
[02:43] <Demon|Tablet> on the grub screen?
[02:43] <Vidiot_X_USC> ^
[02:43] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, on the try ubuntu, check memory or install gui
[02:43] <Demon|Tablet> i don't get a gui
[02:43] <wilee-nilee> !nomodeset | Demon|Tablet
[02:44] <Dr_Willis> you select nomodeset befor the system boots to the 'try/install' dialog
[02:44] <Demon|Tablet> i get this screen: http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1347445084.png
[02:45] <Dr_Willis> looks like a grub menu to me.
[02:45] <Dr_Willis> not that i can read anything on it. ;)
[02:45] <Demon|Tablet> it is grub
[02:45] <Dr_Willis> so you are having issues with an Installed system, and havent tried 'nomodeset' yet?
[02:46] <Demon|Tablet> i don't have ubuntu installed yet
[02:46] <dog-food> is there a reason why ubuntu default video player is totem when there's a much more better plaer available
[02:46] <Dr_Willis> Then i have to wonder where that grub is comming from
[02:46] <Dr_Willis> dog-food:  because its the gnome default
[02:46] <dog-food> as long as I can remember vlc has been lightyears ahead of totem
[02:46] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, your first post did not show grub.
[02:46] <thiebaude> dog-food, not sure, i just use vlc
[02:46] <Dr_Willis> vlc requires the QT libs - so takes up a lot more disk space
[02:47] <thiebaude> too bad vlc is not default
[02:47] <Demon|Tablet> from booting from my live usb in uefi
[02:47] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, read the uefi links I gave you.
[02:48] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, Is this ubuntu loaded to a usb with say unetbootin?
[02:48] <Demon|Tablet> yes
[02:49] <Demon|Tablet> get the same as if i boot from cd
[02:49] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, Have you looked at the uefi info?
[02:50] <Demon|Tablet> yes
[02:51] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, Have you checked the sum of the ISO, with a cd you should bet a different screen than unetbootin.
[02:51] <wilee-nilee> get*
[02:52] <miss_funnylol> battery holds 9h in windows, 3h in ubuntu. Can it be fixed?
[02:52] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, any way uefi is out of my area, hopefully someone will know here.
[02:52] <Demon|Tablet> why would i? they both are booted via uefi
[02:53] <thiebaude> miss_funnylol, try this:http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/improve-power-usage-battery-life-in.html
[02:56] <keeb> anyone know what happened to xcb-cursor development headers?  cant find it in 13.04 repos. really need it.
[03:00] <delinquentme> how can I tell what user on my system is running a given process?
[03:01] <XMLnewbi_> is there a quick way to increase the font size in terminal in ldxe
[03:01] <wilee-nilee> XMLnewbi_, there is a preferences I believe
[03:02] <Demon|Tablet> checksum matches
[03:02] <wilee-nilee> delinquentme, Htop should list whats running and the user I believe.
[03:05] <XMLnewbi_> I can change the font in prefences but it is only changing the windows stuff, terminal is still unreadable
[03:12] <keeb> in 13.04, hoq do i change window manager sessions during login?
[03:13] <keeb> i dont see a dropdown, and something like f1 is not working
[03:16] <keeb> nvm got it
[03:17] <Demon|Tablet> my system just does not want to boot a live version of ubuntu so i can install
[03:17] <genoobie> hey all
[03:17] <wheatthin> Demon|Tablet, What kind of computer/
[03:17] <genoobie> Just installed lubuntu and I'm having a bit of a problem
[03:17] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, Have you tried setting the bios to legacy?
[03:18] <genoobie> if I go to "www.newgrounds.com"
[03:18] <Demon|Tablet> asus g750jx
[03:18] <boydoy> hi! i want to make own Virtual machine and i dont know how can i create a nas for my VM using Ubuntu Server
[03:18] <wheatthin> genoobie, hey, try typing your situation all in one line
[03:18] <genoobie> the screen freezes, the mouse can move for about another minute
[03:18] <genoobie> then blackness
[03:19] <genoobie> then "NMI: PCI system error (SERR) for reason a1 on CPU 0.
[03:19] <genoobie> dazed and confused, but trying to continue
[03:19] <Demon|Tablet> wilee-nilee, that will cause conflicts since i have preinstalled windows 8 system
[03:19] <wheatthin> sounds like a problem with the heat sync or something genoobie
[03:19] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, You have not read the uefi info, that is used at times.
[03:20] <genoobie> wheatthin: CPU / GPU both?
[03:20] <Demon|Tablet> i read it
[03:20] <genoobie> wheatthin: any diag tools?
[03:21] <genoobie> just newgrounds
[03:21] <genoobie> if I go to another flash games site like armor games, no probs.
[03:21] <genoobie> any utils to monitor this?
[03:22] <wheatthin> genoobie, type sensors
[03:22] <wheatthin> in the terminal
[03:23] <cjwelborn> i have a myscript.py that i symlinked to (can be called from anywhere with 'myscript'), except for sudo. it can't find it. is there a sudo-specific setting I can change, or any way to get around this?
[03:23] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, I would look here if you have not, from watching people here, it seems that sometimes things work differently for others in comparison is all. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295
[03:24] <Demon|Tablet> i have read that
[03:24] <wheatthin> cjwelborn, link it to /sbin or /usr/local/sbin
[03:24] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, That thread author is an excellent source of help, and they will visit any thread posted on uefi.
[03:25] <genoobie> okay
[03:25] <genoobie> here's the likely problem
[03:25] <wilee-nilee> just a suggestion is all, if you don't get it resolved here.
[03:25] <genoobie> the computer has both on-board video and a PCI video card
[03:25] <genoobie> because the sensor temps are fine
[03:25] <wheatthin> genoobie, i/o's getting all messed up/
[03:26] <genoobie> wait wait
[03:26] <genoobie> scratch that
[03:26] <genoobie> my mistake
[03:26] <genoobie> but
[03:26] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, We have seen people here that installed ubuntu when W8 was in that hybrid sleep, so I'm not sure if that could be part of the problem.
[03:26] <wheatthin> genoobie, please only use one line..
[03:28] <Demon|Tablet> hybrid sleep? not possible when an os isn't even loaded yet
[03:29] <genoobie> output from sensors "lm99-i2c-2-4c; Adapter:nouveau-0000:01:00.0-2;temp1 +40C; temp2:60.5C;nouveau-pci-100;Adapter:PCI adapter;temp1 -4.0C"
[03:29] <genoobie> wheatthin: make anything out of that output?
[03:29] <genoobie> should I go to "newgrounds and run sensors"
[03:30] <wheatthin> that would be logical.
[03:30] <genoobie> wheatthin: any way to log sensors to record continuous output
[03:30] <cjwelborn> wheathin, thanks. i see now in the sudoers file some directories it will consider 'safe'.
[03:30] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, windows use that automatically I believe until you dualboot, what is the boot time for windows?
[03:30] <genoobie> i.e. as it is freezing
[03:31] <genoobie> damn
[03:31] <wilee-nilee> or do a full shutdown
[03:31] <genoobie> I can't run sensors
[03:31] <Demon|Tablet> i am not booting into windows to install ubuntu
[03:31] <genoobie> it freezes up instantly
[03:31] <genoobie> this makes me think it's another problem
[03:31] <genoobie> ugh, I have to call it a night
[03:32] <wheatthin> might just be the plugin used genoobie
[03:32] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, I did not say you were, that fastboot for windows I believe is automatic, unless you do a full shutdown is all.
[03:32] <Demon|Tablet> i have fastboot disabled
[03:33] <masterjakeway> hey all
[03:33] <wilee-nilee> Demon|Tablet, Cool, just trying to communicate with you, is all, and share what I have sen, but that is about it I run W8 but in msdos is all.
[03:33] <wilee-nilee> seen*
[03:34] <masterjakeway> anyone have any clues about running from a usb hdd and getting a freeze at purple screen?
[03:34] <Demon|Tablet> i load up the usb from a shutdown
[03:35] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, this a full install, and usb2?
[03:36] <masterjakeway> yes  https://app.box.com/s/kxxh5ync0021j4tpipxw
[03:36] <masterjakeway> script results
[03:37] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, 11.10 is eol and you do not need a boot partition.
[03:38] <masterjakeway> I'm trying to set it up to compile android
[03:38] <wilee-nilee> and running a usb2 external is not really the best route.
[03:38] <wilee-nilee> I would use a flash if it were me
[03:39] <Dr_Willis> running from usb shouldent matter - i do that all the time
[03:39] <masterjakeway> flash with iso? Why would that be better? opinion is welcome
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> you can do a full install to a flash drive. or a live-install
[03:40] <wytshadow> i have an awkward problem with ubuntu... if i just try to boot normally it freezes after the grub, but if i boot to recovery mode and then resume normal boot it runs fine. anyone know how to fix this?
[03:40] <masterjakeway> I read that full install on flash isn't good due to write/rewrite
[03:40] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, You also have room for an extended on sda, if you wanted an internal dualboot, not sure the room you have is all.
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> wytshadow:  try booting to text mode. and starting the lightdm service as a test also
[03:41] <Dr_Willis> masterjakeway:  ive never broke one yet. and face it - the things are cheap ;)
[03:41] <DatWolf> willis
[03:41] <masterjakeway> true, lol
[03:41] <Dr_Willis> masterjakeway:  ive ran from a 16gb usb flash for months
[03:41] <DatWolf> is there any way to setup a SSH like service without opening any new ports?
[03:41] <masterjakeway> I just want to keep them separate is all
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> DatWolf:  ssh can run on whatever port you tell it to
[03:42] <masterjakeway> so, besides the boot partition, seed anything else giving it a issue?
[03:42] <DatWolf> I dont have any open ones
[03:42] <DatWolf> besides 23 and 80
[03:42] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, Your choice I have 3 OS W8, and two linux on a big ssd myself, it is no biggie.
[03:42] <DatWolf> both are being used
[03:42] <DatWolf> so I dont get it
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> clarify what you mena by openm DatWolf .. who close them?
[03:43] <DatWolf> um
[03:43] <DatWolf> I dont know
[03:43] <DatWolf> just
[03:43] <FloodBot1> DatWolf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:43] <masterjakeway> maybe because the hdd isn't powered?
[03:43] <DatWolf> default open ports like 80 and such...
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> DatWolf:  the default ubuntu firewall - does not close any ports. all are open
[03:43] <DatWolf> I mean, my router.
[03:43] <DatWolf> without having to port forward my router.
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> thats differnt then open/closed. :)
[03:43] <DatWolf> kay
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> without setting up a port forward- it will make it much harder./ perhaps impossible
[03:44] <masterjakeway> this is a laptop and I don't need the ubuntu except at home...but, I want room for media etc on Windows
[03:44] <DatWolf> I can use stuff like teamviewer without the ports tho?
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> unless you ssh tunnle to a differnt box outside the lan
[03:44] <DatWolf> I dont get it.
[03:44] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, Might just be a driver issue, have you tried using nomodeset, we did not delve into this stuck splash is all.
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> teamviewer connects to the teamviewer servers to do the forwarding i belive
[03:45] <DatWolf> oh
[03:45] <DatWolf> well
[03:45] <DatWolf> what other options do I have?
[03:45] <Dr_Willis> clarify exxtly what you want to do and someone may have ideas
[03:45] <masterjakeway> right? I looked for how to do that and couldn't find the correct file from live CD. also, shift etc doesn't work
[03:46] <DatWolf> I want to be able to setup a SSH like server(access console) without having to port forward
[03:46] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, You mention power are you using the external on wifi, I have a 2 terrabyte external it has two cords one power one data
[03:46] <Dr_Willis> most likely you will be using ssh in some way or another. you could use some VPN/VPS server i guess as one way and setup a tunnle from your home pc to it
[03:47] <masterjakeway> no, it is a wd passport 1tb
[03:47] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, all on one usb os all
[03:47] <wilee-nilee> is*
[03:48] <DatWolf> :/
[03:48] <DatWolf> I dont have a vps.
[03:48] <DatWolf> so
[03:48] <DatWolf> what could I do?
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> get one?
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> or figure out how ti get port forwarding going
[03:49] <DatWolf> ...
[03:49] <DatWolf> no other options?
[03:49] <Myrtti> I'm confused why portforwarding isn't an option
[03:50] <Myrtti> it's not rocket science In most cases
[03:52] <wilee-nilee> masterjakeway, You might look at these google listing as far as a passport goes. https://www.google.com/search?q=wd+passport+1tb+ubuntu&btnG=Search&hl=en&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&gbv=1
[03:53] <wilee-nilee> I think they are a problem in general
[03:55] <masterjakeway> sounds that way. I've done the complete format. I'm gonna call it a day and try fresh tomorrow. thanks!
[03:57] <genoobie> ugh
[03:57] <genoobie> I can't be sure but I might be having video problems
[03:57] <genoobie> There's things I don't understand
[03:57] <genoobie> so for instance
[03:57] <genoobie> I installed a linux-non-free pkg
[03:58] <genoobie> now in synaptic there's the BCM wireless card
[03:58] <genoobie> it says "device is not working properly"
[03:58] <genoobie> then there's an unknown device that is using the non-free driver and it is working
[03:58] <genoobie> the point is that that's not how a system should look
[03:59] <genoobie> now when I go to synaptic it wants to update the repository
[03:59] <genoobie> seems slow or stuck like it could take hours
[04:00] <genoobie> speed 9MB/s
[04:01] <strik3> hi guys. im new to ubuntu and was wondering if some one could help me out with a problem trying to get some dependencies up and running
[04:02] <agmacguy> genoobie, was the system working alright before you installed the package?
[04:02] <Dr_Willis> give us details strik3
[04:02] <genoobie> well...I've done a couple of changes agmacguy
[04:02] <strik3> ok im trying run this command
[04:02] <strik3> sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev build-essential automake autoconf git libcurl4-openssl-dev
[04:02] <Demonicpagan> well... submitted a thread on the forums to see where I'm going wrong with tryin to install 13.04 on this machine
[04:03] <genoobie> so the operations were
[04:03] <genoobie> install lubuntu
[04:04] <genoobie> wtf
[04:04] <wilee-nilee> Demonicpagan, Cool that mod is on us daytime, I have seen them on late though.
[04:04] <genoobie> I think I am just going to reinstall lubuntu
[04:04] <genoobie> nite
[04:04] <shashank_> hi\
[04:04] <strik3> but not having any luck, getting errors such as unable to locate package, couldn't find any package by regex and package autoconf has no installation candidate
[04:04] <genoobie> bb when I am less grumpy
[04:05] <cdac_hyd> hi
[04:05] <Demonicpagan> even made sure that the drive i want to install ubuntu on is partitioned as gpt
[04:08] <genoobie> I might be done with lubuntu
[04:08] <genoobie> seems a bit buggy
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> life is buggy
[04:08] <genoobie> will ubuntu run nicely on a p4 3GB
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> will also depend on the video card
[04:09] <genoobie> geforce 6800
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> tried xubuntu yet?
[04:09] <genoobie> is that any better with platform stability / plugins etc?
[04:09] <agmacguy> 2nd xubuntu, less resource intensive
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> I cant say ive had any stability issues with lubuntu
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> the core kernel/drivers are allthe same across all of hem
[04:10] <genoobie> okay, I'll give xubuntu a shot
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> them
[04:10] <agmacguy> not related to ubuntu but was anyone else excited about Steam's announcement today with Steam OS?
[04:10] <genoobie> xubuntu / lubuntu seem very similar
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> agmacguy:  i will belive it when i can actaually get my hands on it. ;)
[04:11] <agmacguy> haha too true!
[04:11] <genoobie> i'll bbl
[04:11] <genoobie> for now XP seems very stable
[04:11] <genoobie> and comfotable
[04:11] <genoobie> just needs more maintenance than a *nix or *buntu
[04:11] <Dr_Willis> XP is also a zombie on its last legs..
[04:12] <Dr_Willis> I cant say ive really had any issues with lubuntu, or xubuntu. but i guess it depends on your hardware
[04:12] <genoobie> well, I'll be back for sure.
[04:12] <genoobie> okay, nite! Thanks again for all the help.
[04:12] <Johnny_Linux> genoobie  just get a practice machine and play with it,youll get it.
[04:15] <unknown__> Dr_Willis , thanks for the help, the winUsb worked pretty good, but for some reason I didn't get admin when the user was created by the system, probably because I named the user unknown with a null (o) or /o, lol, I had to enable admin to give it admin.
[04:15] <qin_> Saying that system bocame stable 2 after end of support deserve lol, especialy if it is MS
[04:15] <unknown__> Also guys, I'm having a problem with crashes when I turn off laptop monitor and just use the LED HDMI
[04:16] <FoShizz> Hello gents!
[04:16] <unknown__> I want to know how can I put the menu bar across the bottom and make the close window (x) in the top right of the windows instead of top left
[04:16] <FoShizz> Quick question, why isn't "echo [filecontent] > [filename]" working to make a file?
[04:17] <qin_> FoShizz: permissions?
[04:17] <FoShizz> say "echo  helloworld > newfile
[04:17] <FoShizz> must i sudo it?
[04:17] <unknown__> Oh, also I want to know if I can disable the grub unless I input something at boot, so I don't have to hit enter everytime
[04:18] <FoShizz> it is still telling me it is an invalid arguement
[04:18] <qin_> FoShizz: as follow: cd; echo `date` > test_file; cat test_file; date;
[04:18] <foist> Trying to install and run ipython notebook, but it keeps giving me: UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xb0 in position 2: ordinal not in range(128)
[04:18] <foist> . Anyone know what could be the reason?
[04:19] <unknown__> How can I rearrange the menu bar on the left to go across the bottom?
[04:20] <FoShizz> now when you say 'date' do i have to put quotes around it?
[04:20] <ONeZetty[M]> holooooo!!! Ubuntu Rocks!!
[04:20] <wilee-nilee> unknown__, used to be a hack for that, not around anymore, you can hide it and use a dock of sorts.
[04:20] <FoShizz> all it is giving me is that it's invalid
[04:21] <unknown__> ONeZetty, they really are doing good with it huh,  I see vast improvements from 5 years ago, install is even smoother than windows now
[04:21] <qin_> FoShizz: put what you want, back quotes here works as command substitution, just to add fun.
[04:21] <FoShizz> echo date > test.file
[04:22] <FoShizz> any ideas?
[04:22] <unknown__> Hi, wilee-nilee, So I can hide it and create a new one?
[04:22] <qin_> FoShizz: what `pwd` says?
[04:23] <unknown__> This feels like it was designed for left-handers, lol
[04:23] <FoShizz> slash root
[04:23] <qin_> FoShizz: cd
[04:23] <qin_> FoShizz: NOW!
[04:23] <FoShizz> just cd?
[04:23] <FoShizz> not cd Desktop?
[04:24] <wilee-nilee> unknown__, It should hide already, it is part of unity a plugin in compiz. you can install compizconfig and set the pressure to make it appear.
[04:24] <qin_> FoShizz: ...and why would you want to have file in root directory???!!!
[04:24] <unknown__> wilee-nilee I remember compiz being really buggy when running two monitors
[04:24] <FoShizz> lol yea i guess
[04:24] <wilee-nilee> unknown__, You might check out other desktops as well, unity is a package is all.
[04:25] <FoShizz> im only on a live cd :p
[04:25] <qin_> FoShizz: cd; cd ~; cd /home/$USER are same things, and take you away from root directory
[04:25] <FoShizz> oh really?
[04:26] <qin_> FoShizz: aha... does it have /home/ ?
[04:26] <unknown__> wilee-nilee do you have any recommendations? something like kali's?
[04:26] <FoShizz> hm cd and cd ~ keep me on /root still
[04:26] <FoShizz> yes it does!
[04:26] <qin_> cd /home/
[04:26] <FoShizz> cd /home/ works!
[04:26] <unknown__> lol
[04:27] <qin_> touch this;
[04:27] <jatakk> qin_: I can't
[04:27] <unknown__> Oh, is the a program like Wireshark to monitor my lan traffic?
[04:27] <unknown__> Or can I make wireshar do that?
[04:28] <FoShizz> schweet qin i got it to work!
[04:28] <wilee-nilee> unknown__, recommendations in desktops? I use the gnome shell, and some extensions, with the cairo dock and synapse to search apps.
[04:28] <FoShizz> than qin
[04:28] <FoShizz> thanks*
[04:28] <qin_> FoShizz: you need some reading my friend; man chmod; man chown; and some research on linux file system
[04:29] <qin_> welcome
[04:29] <FoShizz> yea i know :(
[04:29] <unknown__> Yeah wilee-nilee that's it!
[04:29] <qin_> jatakk: what abouts that?

[04:30] <jatakk> unknown__: You want a program like Wireshark for linux?
[04:31] <jatakk> unknown__: Use nmap. That's what Wireshark is powered by anyway
[04:33] <unknown__> Can I monitor lan traffic jatakk?
[04:33] <lotuspsychje> morning to all
[04:34] <jatakk> unknown__: It's a command line tool but yeah you can
[04:35] <jatakk> unknown__: As long as you're comfortable with the command line
[04:35] <unknown__> well, I used aricrack in command line
[04:35] <unknown__> I just like to get a window going to monitor it, how long are the commands?
[04:37] <jatakk> Oh okay well sorry can't help you there. And yeah the commands can be pretty long with all the different flags
[04:37] <jatakk> There might be a GUI for it out there somewhere, not sure though
[04:37] <jatakk> Someone here might know.

[04:40] <chathura> then i have to hard shut down
[04:41] <chathura> it is intel
[04:41] <wilee-nilee> !reisub | chathura might work
[04:41] <varunendra> any proprietary drivers recommended or in use? chathura
[04:43] <lotuspsychje> chathura: what was default Os on your compaq?

[04:43] <lotuspsychje> chathura: try setting network boot to enabled in bios, some machines freez on ubuntu
[04:45] <lotuspsychje> chathura: not sure if this is your case, but worth a try
[04:45] <chathura> is there any relation ship with eclipse
[04:45] <chathura> IDE
[04:46] <wilee-nilee> chathura, is this your thread. http://askubuntu.com/questions/4408/what-should-i-do-when-ubuntu-freezes
[04:47] <kriskropd> during ubuntu installation, there is an option for a general collection of packages called "large selection of fonts" - can anyone point me to a resource that tells me which all packages are included in that?

[04:55] <lotuspsychje> im trying to get sound working on gweled like this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/gweled/+bug/681203 but after adding ppa it still says gweled is latest version
[04:56] <lotuspsychje> its a lovely candycrush lookalike for ubuntu, would be nice to fix sound on it
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> the ppa has failed to download, maybe because latest distro is 11.10
[05:06] <unknown__> Hey could someone tell me if I configured wireshark right?
[05:07] <unknown__> I reconfigured the dpkg to common and chmod +x
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> unknown__: man wireshark ?
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> unknown__: http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup
[05:14] <Dwade09> i updated my laptop from 12.04 to 12.10  now my laptop boots to the ubuntu loading screen then when it loads its a black screen and stays a black screen.
[05:16] <lotuspsychje> Dwade09: maybe try a failsafeX from grubrecovery or previous kernel boot?
[05:16] <gartral> this happens even when I do a raw SSH connection
[05:16] <gartral> hey all, I've been fighting with some remote service issues and I can't get my SSH keys to be used, every time I push/change a key, log out and back in in, the server is asking for a password even though i know for a fact a valid key exists on both the server and my desktop
[05:16] <Dwade09> lotuspsychje,  i cant access anything it freezes up
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> Dwade09: did you try loading grub with holding shift at boot?
[05:17] <Dwade09> lotuspsychje,  yes it wont let me
[05:18] <lotuspsychje> Dwade09: thats not normal mate, grub should load at least
[05:20] <wilee-nilee> Dwade09, Have you modified the grub timeout?
[05:21] <Dwade09> wilee-nilee, nope. it doesn't matter im going to try a older version anyways
[05:21] <wilee-nilee> Dwade09, You familiar with nomodeset if you get the grub menu?
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. If you are connected to your router via wireless.. and are downloading stuff (like with apt-get)  then plug in the wire.. does the system auto switch over to the faster connection? ive never noticed if it does or not
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> or should one disable wireless by hand.
[05:39] <wilee-nilee> Dr_Willis, The only thing I have noticed with changing from either is the last one enabled is the default generally.
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> i switched in mid-download of a file. ;) wonder what it did then. heh
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> i turned off wireless befor i did the apt-get dist-upgrade    just in case
[05:39] <SupaSol> hello here
[05:40] <cfhowlett> SupaSol, greetings
[05:40] <wilee-nilee> no sudo apt-get -f install I assume
[05:43] <Guest4562> hello,i have a server that has ben hacked.so i want to find all file with the ---i---- attr.I man find and does not find any help.can u help me?
[05:44] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu-server|Guest4562,
[05:47] <Dr_Willis> find / -perm [-|+]0777 (or similar mode)
[05:47] <Dr_Willis> whatever perm 'i' is ;)  cant say ive used that in .. well.. ever
[05:48] <Guest4562> sorry for the trouble.I knew.  thanks Dr_Willis
[05:48] <pdizzle_> Hi all. I don't have Thunderbird installed but it's listed as new install under 'important security updates'. Any idea why? Safe to ignore it?
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> lsattr -R ¦ grep "\-i-"
[05:49] <qin_> Guest4562: Dr_Willis you too fast
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> its listing the update changelog i imagine pdizzle_ .
[05:50] <Dr_Willis> qin_:  ;) now i cant say that ive ever used lsattr or chattr
[05:50] <qin_> haha
[05:52] <pdizzle_> OK makes sense. Thanks Dr_Willis
[05:52] <Dr_Willis> i guess if your X log file in home was getting to be 13+gb like mine was last week.. that could be a way to stop that
[06:04] <qin_> Decided to spread gossipes that SteamOS is some offshot of Sabayon... and I do not care if it's not really accurate.
[06:04] <teknix> Is there a python editor than I can change background to transparent?
[06:05] <qin_> teknix: gvim?
[06:05] <arayaq> teknix: define python editor?
[06:05] <Dr_Willis> qin_:  its actually minix ;)
[06:05] <teknix> well I use Idle, and it color codes the commands and loops and such
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> vi and set a transparent terminal..
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> ive never seen how a transparent background makes things more 'readable'
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> !info geany
[06:06] <qin_> Dr_Willis: it's bad joke.
[06:06] <teknix> I'm making it look nice :) DR_Willis
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> teknix:  making it look ugly. ;P
[06:07] <teknix> Dr_Willis black on high contrast is ftw~
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> ive noticed things are slowly moveing away from useless transparency effects in a lot of apps' and os's
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> and useless eye candy effects.
[06:07] <teknix> I also like to see whats behind the windows
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> teknix:  thats just it.. if you can see behind.. you cant really see whts in front. ;)
[06:08] <Andrew_Wiggin> Hello all o7
[06:08]  * Dr_Willis is reminded of those Phone-Camera-Live-wallpapers that let you 'use the phone as you walk'  ;P
[06:08] <teknix> Multi-tasking Dr_willis, :P
[06:09] <qin_> teknix: I think compiz have transparency too, so you can alfa Idle
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> teknix:  now if you were that distracted  while driveing.. :) you would get arrested. heh
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> compiz has a plugin to make any window transparent to differnt levels
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> but it does the whole window i belive. title and decorations
[06:09] <teknix> Dr_willis you guys have done a great job with ubuntu, it's waaay better than windows
[06:09] <qin_> teknix: or swap to tilling
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> teknix:  most of us in her are not the the developers. ;)
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> we are just support/end users
[06:10] <teknix> compiz seemed buggy to me qin
[06:10] <Andrew_Wiggin> Could somoene possibily assist me? I just booted up my media server running Ubuntu 12.10 and I just can't seem to get it to run with out major system lag.
[06:10] <teknix> yeah but I wouldn't know how awesome it is without you guys helping :)
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> compiz is a lot more stable then  it used to be. *shudder*
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> ;)
[06:11] <Andrew_Wiggin> It's been like this for a while, just haven't had time to adjust it. System monitor says the CPU is peaking around 84% but RAM is staying around 50% at 2Gb. But im still getting heavy system lag
[06:12] <Andrew_Wiggin> Also my main HDD has 300+ Gb / 1.2Tb
[06:12] <Andrew_Wiggin> Any suggestions?
[06:12] <aeon-ltd> Andrew_Wiggin: what happened before the lag?
[06:13] <Andrew_Wiggin> Honestly, I cant remember. It's been like this for ages. I almost am never in the desktop
[06:13] <Andrew_Wiggin> It's a decent rig. AMD 2c, 4Gb RAM, Running 64 bit Ubuntu 12.10
[06:13] <aeon-ltd> Andrew_Wiggin: what's running now?
[06:14] <Andrew_Wiggin> and a GT 520
[06:14] <Andrew_Wiggin> In the front? Firefox 1 tab, rythem box, and system monitor
[06:14] <Andrew_Wiggin> compiz is sucking up most of the memory/CPU usage... not sure what it is though haha. Guessing the GUI?>
[06:14] <aeon-ltd> Andrew_Wiggin: and it lags when doing what?
[06:15] <Andrew_Wiggin> Anything really, opening programs or just moving the mouse.
[06:15] <aeon-ltd> Andrew_Wiggin: update gpu drivers? or don't run compiz?
[06:15] <Andrew_Wiggin> Or moving program windows too
[06:15] <Andrew_Wiggin> what is compiz?
[06:16] <aeon-ltd> Andrew_Wiggin: a compositing manager, it handles visual effects and can also manage windows
[06:16] <Andrew_Wiggin> that sounds like the issue
[06:16] <Andrew_Wiggin> can i just kill it?
[06:17] <Andrew_Wiggin> haha nope.
[06:17] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, turn off visual effects
[06:17] <aeon-ltd> Andrew_Wiggin: if it's managing your windows i wouldn't
[06:17] <Andrew_Wiggin> kk cfhowlett gonna reboot and try that
[06:18] <Andrew_Wiggin> how do you turn off visual effects?
[06:19] <Andrew_Wiggin> or is there some kind of low-end GUI option?
[06:19] <qin_> Andrew_Wiggin: you could use metacity instead of compiz
[06:19] <Andrew_Wiggin> Is that recommended for lower-end systems?
[06:20] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, lower end systems like xubuntu and lubuntu. to get a taste, install lxde and xfce4.  logout.  choose one. login.  enjoy.
[06:21] <Andrew_Wiggin> I mean i feel like my system should be able to handle any OS really
[06:22] <Andrew_Wiggin> its a 2c but has a GT 520 and 4Gb of ram.
[06:22] <xmetal> my system ios not the slowest and i still like those two DE's
[06:22] <xmetal> (my "main" system that is)
[06:22] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, yeah ... feelings aside, it's free to test the options I suggested.
[06:22] <Andrew_Wiggin> totally ill test them
[06:22] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, fwiw, xubuntu is the base of ubuntustudio ...
[06:23] <Andrew_Wiggin> gonna try turning off visual fx first, whats the simpliest way to do that in my current setup
[06:24] <karab44> hello
[06:24] <Rory> Hello karab44
[06:24] <Andrew_Wiggin> think i got a solution, gonna test.
[06:27] <teknix> Well thanks for your help everyone, I'm going to sleep ttyl!
[06:30] <Andrew_Wiggin> cfhowlett ok that fixed some of the lag
[06:32] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, the more eye candy the bigger the load.   if you've got an integrated gpu, the slow down can be noticeable.  Less eye-candy, less load.
[06:33] <Andrew_Wiggin> i have a standalone GPU, but it's lightweight
[06:33] <Andrew_Wiggin> just a 1GB GT 520
[06:33] <Andrew_Wiggin> im installing LXDE
[06:33] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin,  and you see the result ... :)
[06:34] <Andrew_Wiggin> how do i know im running lxde not compiz
[06:34] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, logout.  click on the gear icon.  select lxde as your desktop environment.  login.
[06:36] <Andrew_Wiggin> ommmmg
[06:36] <Andrew_Wiggin> night and day
[06:36] <Andrew_Wiggin> Ty <3
[06:36] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, ain't it though?
[06:36] <Andrew_Wiggin> wtf is running in stock Ubuntu that so system resource intenseive?
[06:36] <Andrew_Wiggin> intensive*
[06:37] <cfhowlett> Andrew_Wiggin, hey also see xfce4.  Depending on your preference, you might wish to get the full package xubuntu/lubuntu .  every OS has a load.  the relatively mid-range graphic requirements and your limited gpu = unsatisfactory results.
[06:37] <Mattias> Andrew_Wiggin: I'd recommend you install Awesome or some other tiling wm :)
[06:37] <Andrew_Wiggin> thanks man
[06:39] <kostkon> Andrew_Wiggin, 1gb graphics card a lightweight?
[06:39] <Mattias> Yeah, that card should be able to handle compiz fine
[06:39] <Andrew_Wiggin> kostkon compared to my main, yes.
[06:39] <cfhowlett> kostkon, depending on the load, yeah that could be considered light.
[06:40] <Mattias> The problem might be you haven't installed the correct graphics drivers yet?
[06:40] <kostkon> Andrew_Wiggin, for the latest fps maybe yes, for ubuntu hell no
[06:40] <kostkon> cfhowlett, yeah
[06:40] <Andrew_Wiggin> haha yeah i thought as much
[06:40] <Andrew_Wiggin> lxde is doing me fine now
[06:48] <vinceableworld> upgraded to 13.04 - wi-fi dropouts still a problem.
[06:49] <cfhowlett> !wifi|vinceableworld,
[06:49] <cfhowlett> !wifi|vinceableworld,
[06:49] <cfhowlett> vinceableworld, what is your wifi chipset?  broadcom?
[06:51] <vinceableworld> I'm not sure how do I find out?
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> lspci command shows info about your cards
[06:53] <vinceableworld> That looks like a pretty old page
[06:53] <vinceableworld> thanks
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> the core info is still the same. ;)
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> but if the card works. but has driver issues.. there may or may not be alternative drivers
[06:54] <vinceableworld> lotta info on this screen
[06:54] <vinceableworld> looks like intel
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> the exact chipset of the wifi - will be imporntant.
[06:54] <cfhowlett> !paste|vinceableworld,   paste it up
[06:55] <vinceableworld> can't copy for some reason
[06:55] <vinceableworld> 3400 Series Chipset
[06:55] <Dr_Willis> install and use the pastebinit command. ;) if you want
[06:56] <vinceableworld> Sure
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> id say check askubuntu.com and the forums about that exact chipset and see if anyone else has the same issues. and what possible fixs they used
[06:56] <vinceableworld> the card works cuz it works fine in windows
[06:58] <vinceableworld> how do I install that command Dr?
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> !pastebinit
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> 'sudo apt-get install pastebinit'
[07:01] <vinceableworld> okay now I got what I want in pastebin - what's the command?
[07:01] <vinceableworld> in terminal rather
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> the bot gave a example. ;)
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> command | pastebinit
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> or pastebinit filename.txt
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> lspci | pastebinit

[07:24] <cfhowlett> Wiz_KeeD, greetings
[07:24] <delbo> hi
[07:24] <delbo> Is this the place to get some ubuntu help?
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> yes delbo
[07:25] <cfhowlett> delbo, yes indeed.
[07:25] <cfhowlett> !details|delbo,
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> vinceableworld:  from what im reading. it Might be an issue with the power-saveing mode of the card.  the command           sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off            'should' disable the powersaveing feature
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> vinceableworld:  a sort of old guide i found -> http://www.hitxp.com/articles/software/ubuntu-fix-slow-wireless-internet-connection-speed-upgrading-11-04-natty-narwhal/
[07:27] <errhunter> I am runnig Ubuntu 13.04 Gnome 3.8 Latest. I used diff place to do my work, at all place i have ethernet, so i plug unplug very frequntly. some time i get Unmanaged Status of Ethernet. And to solve that i have reboot system, which i dont want.
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> errhunter:  restart the network service perhaps?
[07:27] <delbo> wonderful! I've just installed Ubuntu 13.04 on a desktop PC and the mouse freezes after a couple of movements after the desktop loads up. The keyboard works fine. I've tried other mice, and other USB ports on the computer. Anyone seen this before?
[07:28] <Pingu> hey
[07:28] <omg_scout> hi
[07:28] <Pingu> my sound keeps messing up
[07:28] <cfhowlett> delbo, this is a blue tooth mouse?
[07:29] <Pingu> I have surround sound 7.1
[07:29] <bejker> hi
[07:29] <Pingu> and it sometimes crackles
[07:29] <cfhowlett> !sound
[07:29] <omg_scout> wow
[07:29] <delbo> no, it's a USB mouse. (and another one is a wireless with a USB dongle)
[07:30] <omg_scout> yesterday installed win8+ ubuntu 13.04 dualboot
[07:30] <omg_scout> was shocked to notice that during installation of ubuntu, it took wifi password from windows
[07:30] <omg_scout> wow
[07:30] <Pingu> anyone have the same problem?
[07:30] <Pingu> becuase I really dont want to log out and in every time it messes up
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> omg_scout:  as far as i know - installing ubuntu dosent touch anything on the windows drives - they dont even have a user-migration wizard any more.
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> omg_scout:  you mean it 'learned' the wifi password from windows?
[07:31]  * wilee-nilee raises one eyebrow on that statement
[07:32] <omg_scout> yeah
[07:32] <omg_scout> I am prettu sure
[07:32] <omg_scout> clean disk
[07:32] <cfhowlett> omg_scout  NEVER seen passwords passed from windows to ubuntu.  NEVER.
[07:32] <omg_scout> installed w8
[07:32] <FloodBot1> omg_scout: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> id need to see proof of that ;)
[07:32] <omg_scout> I inserted ubuntu stick and it already knew my wifi password. Impressive
[07:33] <Pingu> haha
[07:33] <Pingu> thats cool
[07:33] <wilee-nilee> its voodoo man
[07:34] <LinuxGold> NSA must have done that I guess?
[07:34] <Dr_Willis> or he did it - while drunk and dosent rember. ;P
[07:34] <vinceableworld> These wireless issues are not a very good advertisement for ubuntu - as well as the problem solving portion.
[07:34] <LinuxGold> lol
[07:35] <omg_scout> LinuxGold: That was my first thought
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> vinceableworld:  its more about the hardware makers not always supporting linux.
[07:35] <learntoplay> hi i can only open ubuntu from nomodeset, what can i do
[07:35] <cfhowlett> vinceableworld, not an ubuntu issue.  if hardware OEM's don't support linux, someone has to hack it.  imprecisely and not always successfully
[07:35] <vinceableworld> just tryin to find the hack
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> given the issues just a few years ago with wifi.. i have seen less and less wifi issues on a daily basis in here
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> its always seems to be the same few HW makers/chipsets with most of the issues
[07:36] <Dr_Willis> then theres always the occasional kernel bug :)
[07:36] <vinceableworld> seems like its working better in 13.04 but prob just my imagination
[07:36] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, make sure you are updated and run software-properties-gtk and check additional drivers
[07:36] <cfhowlett> Dr_Willis, I think they're doing an "apple".  every upgrade breaks the previous linux workaround
[07:36] <del_> Hi. Sorry. I haven't IRC'd for about 10 years. Let's try again :)
[07:36] <omg_scout> Hi;)
[07:37] <vinceableworld> There's comp manufactures that release w/linux right?
[07:37] <djlanz> did you check the box mentioned other operating system found inside the machine *windows 7 partition* if you did that i guess some information from that drive will be copied by ubuntu happens to me twice
[07:37] <cfhowlett> vinceableworld, dell and hp are the major OEM's ...
[07:37] <cfhowlett> !hardware
[07:37] <del_> So the problem is that on a fresh install of 13.04 the mouse freezes after a short moment of movement. I've tried 2 mice, in multiple USB ports - all to the same effect. Any help would be awesome!
[07:39] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee up to date
[07:39] <wilee-nilee> del_, This happen on the live cd/usb?
[07:39] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee it worked before but now it can only be run in nomodeset
[07:39] <del_> wilee0nilee no. it worked fine on the DVD 
[07:40] <learntoplay> i might have tried to "Activate nvidia drivers" yesterday
[07:40] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, Did you per chance install proprietary graphic drivers?
[07:41] <learntoplay> there was a icon uptop that told me to select one of two nvidia drivers, thats all i remember, sorry
[07:41] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, did you check additional drivers as I suggested?
[07:42] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee i had no additional drivers
[07:42] <vinceableworld> same here
[07:42] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, the app  additional drivers
[07:43] <vinceableworld> There's an application called additional drivers?
[07:43] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee no proprietary drivers in use on this system
[07:43] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, in the terminal run "software-properties-gtk" and look in additional drivers
[07:44] <learntoplay> i dont see additional drivers
 i am on 12.04
[07:44] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, and you just tried the additional drivers app, and you see nothing there?
[07:45] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, it says no prpriertary drivers are in use and with updates i cant find any
[07:46] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, my system was up to date but this suddenly happened
[07:46] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, You don't see the nvidia drivres you "may" have installed listed there?
[07:46] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, no
[07:47] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, run lspci in the terminal and post the graphic hardware info.
[07:47] <learntoplay> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF110 [GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores] (rev a1)
[07:48] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, i also have 00:02.0 Display controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
[07:48] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, but nothing is connected to that one
[07:48] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, comes with the motherboard
[07:50] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, at one point i had messed up my xconfig file and i tried to run nvidia-xconfig which did not allow me
[07:50] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, From what little info here we have so far it looks like a dual graphics setup, lets see what others might know, I'm not sure.
[07:51] <wyclif> hi there everybody
[07:51] <cfhowlett> wyclif, greetings
[07:51] <del_> hey
[07:52] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, does my xconfig file matter now?
[07:53] <learntoplay> wilee-nilee, or is it a sudden hardware issue?
[07:53] <wyclif> cfhowlett: del_: greetz
[07:53] <wilee-nilee> learntoplay, I'm not sure.
[07:54] <learntoplay> what exactly does  nomodeset do to your pc
[07:55] <cfhowlett> learntoplay, accepts the very basic, no frills display configuration for emergency display
[07:56] <Dr_Willis> cant recall the last time i used 'nvidia-xconfig' i tend to just install the drivers. reboot. run 'nvidia-settings' to tweak the stuff
[07:57] <deepblue> there is an entry in grub that i wanna delete
[07:57] <cfhowlett> !grub|deepblue,
[07:58] <wyclif> learntoplay: here is a good resource that explains what nomodeset does http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Nomodeset
[07:58] <AjunS> hello all
[07:59] <cfhowlett> AjunS, greetings
[07:59] <wyclif> AjunS: hi there
[07:59] <omg_scout> hi
[07:59] <wyclif> omg_scout: hi
[07:59] <del_> Any thoughts on the non-responsive mouse? It works for just a few motions after boot up.
[08:00] <cfhowlett> del_, does the mouse have a ball?  cleaning ...
[08:00] <cfhowlett> del_, even LED mice need to cleaned ... especially with kids, beverages, smokers around
[08:00] <wyclif> del_ a little white alcohol dos wonders
[08:00] <del_> cfhowlett, not a ball mouse. I've tried two mice. and a few different USB ports
[08:00] <del_> cfhowlett, this is on a clean install of 13.04
[08:01] <AjunS> sorry I cant pass through my desktop in kali-linux... it keeps loading to show my log in desktop but it doesnt loads up... is there a way to recovery. please help
[08:01] <litsand> part
[08:01] <AjunS> part
[08:01] <cfhowlett> del_, understood.  so : discounting software issues, check the hardware.  30 seconds of cleaning might be illuminating ...
[08:01] <wyclif> AjunS: no terminal??
[08:01] <cfhowlett> AjunS, kali?  not supported here.  pretty sure if you look, you'll find their support channels.
[08:02] <wylde> AjunS: #kali-linux
[08:02] <AjunS> yes I'm there.. no suipport or response
[08:02] <AjunS> tired of waiting
[08:02] <del_> cfhowlett, well it worked fine on the DVD install and the 'trial' -live CD… so it's not likely to be hardware to my knowledge
[08:02] <AjunS> sorry for bothering you guys.. thanks
[08:02] <cfhowlett> AjunS, one GOOD reason to choose ubuntu I'd say ... still: kali ain't supported here.  sorry.  consider your options.
[08:03] <AjunS> you're welcome bro
[08:03] <cfhowlett> del_, OK, well this one is officially over my head.  sorry.
[08:03] <del_> cfhowlett, thanks :(  I'm stumped :(
[08:04] <wylde> del_: only issue I've ever run into is the occaisional need to remove my wireless reciver and plug it back in.
[08:04] <def_> What to read, how to create a multiboot DVD like LinuxFormat magazine do with ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu and maybe ubuntu server of the same release version on it?
[08:05] <del_> wide, thanks man, but I've tried that too… It's really weird. I'm wondering if I should try an earlier build to see how that goes..
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> def_:  pendrivelinux site has  tools to make such a thing
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> 'multisystem' i think its called
[08:06] <del_> the keyboard works fine all the time, and the mouse works well for about 10 seconds of moving it about, then it's over red-rover for the mouse :(
[08:06] <AjunS> which ubuntu is better off? want to download now
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> del_:  does the light stay on - Inside the mouse
[08:06] <omg_scout> what do you mean which?
[08:06] <otak> http://liveusb.info/dotclear/ seems good too
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> AjunS:  totally depends on what you want and your specs
[08:07] <wilee-nilee> deepblue, So why is it you want to not have this XP notation in grub rather than removing the triggering files?
[08:07] <Dr_Willis> AjunS:  the default is 'ubuntu' most docs focus on that.
[08:07] <Dr_Willis> !manual | AjunS
[08:07] <del_> Dr_Willis, no (nice pickup.. didn't notice that). it turns off!
[08:07] <vinceableworld> interesting went over to pidgin and all the sudden my youtube started loading - pidgin isn't disconnecting but the connection looks connected... but is like slow as molasses
[08:08] <Dr_Willis> del_:  so it could be some power saveing/power issue.  the 'dmesg' command Might give some info if theres some errors
[08:08] <cfhowlett> del_, put a sheet of white paper under the mouse and try again.
[08:08] <deepblue> wilee-nilee: ok,how to remove the triggering files?
[08:08] <wyclif> Otter768: you there?
[08:08] <del_> Dr_Willis, i'll try the dmseg and get back to you.
[08:08] <cfhowlett> AjunS, depends on your system.  Newish?  4 gigs ram?  ubuntu.  older: xubuntu or lubuntu.  want long term support?  12.04
[08:09] <Kartagis> Onixs: hi, did people move away from irc.osx86.hu?
[08:09] <wilee-nilee> deepblue, use this app to run the bootinfo summary only and post the url generated, this will show where they are. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[08:09] <ihre> is there any way to remove a passphrase from a ssh-key, when the actual passphrase has been forgotten (or remove and recreate)?
[08:10] <omg_scout> cfhowlett: I would say that ubuntu needs at least decent integrated graphics for Unity
[08:10] <omg_scout> even more than RAM
[08:10] <row248> How can i see my devices (another hdd)? fdisk -l shows my another hdd, but folder /media/machine is empty.
[08:10] <deepblue> wilee-nilee: ok
[08:10] <omg_scout> hmn, you need to moount?
[08:11] <cfhowlett> omg_scout, "decent"  ... agreed but everyone wants to get maserati performance out of a 1972 le baron.
[08:11] <wilee-nilee> deepblue, on the web page you will see a picture of the app with create a bootinfo summary button, just click that.
[08:11] <del_> Dr_Willis, I've run the dmesg command, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for..
[08:12] <wyclif> b0x: hi
[08:12] <Rad> hello
[08:12] <wyclif> Rad: hi there
[08:13] <Rad> anyone have an idea how to update tcl to the 8.5 version please?
[08:13] <Rad> I'm trying to update it but i'm getting this: Package tcl-8.4.13-6.el5.i386 already installed and latest version
[08:13] <vinceableworld> .
[08:13] <columb> How do I sync my current system time with internet from terminal?
[08:14] <wyclif> Rad: You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
[08:14] <wyclif> package-cleanup --dupes
[08:14] <wyclif> rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
[08:15] <Rad> wyclif well in fact i'm using centos :P
[08:15] <Rad> does it work in centos too?
[08:15] <omg_scout> cfhowlett: I generally have never had speed issues on unity, unless I install it on laptop with unsupported ATI Graphic Card;)
[08:15] <wyclif> Rad: um-utils package for sure, not sure about everywhere else :)
[08:16] <Onixs> hi Kartagis.. nope, just taking a break :)
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> del_:  as soon as the mouse acts up. type dmesg (or keep it monitored from a 2nd machine) and see if theres any erorrs at the end
[08:16] <wyclif> in yum-utils for sure
[08:16] <wyclif> Rad: in yum-utils
[08:16] <Kartagis> Onixs: there are 5 people in the channel
[08:16] <Kartagis> Onixs: may I pm you?
[08:16] <Rad> ok thx
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> Rad:  so what version are you wanting?
[08:17] <Rad> i want
[08:17] <Rad> 8.5
[08:17] <Onixs> Kartagis sure
[08:17] <Rad> but it always install the 8.4 version
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> Rad:  if 8.5 is not in the repos. then wats in the repos IS the latest version avail. ;)
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> !info tcl
[08:17] <Rad> no there is a 8.5 version
[08:17] <Rad> but yum say 8.4 is the latest one :[
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> !info tcl8.6
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> Rad:  that dosent mean its in the repos.
[08:18] <del_> Dr_Willis, ah ok. I'll have to restart and spend a bit of time on that because of the fraction of a moment I have to capture that error. Thanks for your help - I hope it sends me on a trajectory to repair :)  Thanks again ppl.
[08:18] <DJones> Rad: WHich version of Ubuntu are you using
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> and there seems to be a tcl 8.6 in the repos
[08:18] <Rad> DJones well i'm using centos
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> !info tcl8.5
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> looks like theres tcl8.5 also ;)
[08:19] <DJones> Rad: You'll need yo ask in the centos support channel then, this channel only deals with Ubuntu support
[08:19] <vinceableworld> did anyone see my test 1 2 3?
[08:19] <Rad> i can't access it :P
[08:19] <Rad> well thanks anyway
[08:19] <Rad> i will try to install it manually :)
[08:19] <omg_scout> vinceableworld: I belive noone did
[08:19] <babinlonston> How can i enable filter Module in httpd.conf its not there then how can i add it ? any one there to help ?
[08:19] <AjunS> Ubuntu 13.04 or Ubuntu 12.04 LTS which is better?
[08:19] <vinceableworld> okay so I was offline while it looks like I was online.
[08:20] <vinceableworld> and pidgin was making me think I was online too... letting me chat in the box.
[08:20] <wilee-nilee> !best | AjunS
[08:20] <vinceableworld> had to manually disconnect and reconnect
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> AjunS:  13.10 is due out next month
[08:20] <vinceableworld> very anoying.
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> AjunS:  totally depends on your needd and exact hardware
[08:20] <wh-hw> hi
[08:20] <wyclif> AjunS: 12.04 LTS if you are a programmer or prefer stability :)
[08:21] <vinceableworld> Dr? think it will have wi-fi upgrades? lol
[08:21] <Dr_Willis> AjunS:  if you have a new laptop that came out like this month.. the 13.04 may work better
[08:21] <wh-hw> anybody know how to install libkmod on 12.04 LTS?
[08:21] <wh-hw> hello
[08:22] <wyclif> wh-hw hi there
[08:22] <AjunS> thanks to all.... 12.04 LTS download started
[08:22] <wyclif> AjunS: you will have fun with that :)
[08:22] <wh-hw> wyclif, do you know ?
[08:23] <wh-hw> wyclif, how to install it ?
[08:23] <wh-hw> libkmod
[08:23] <cfhowlett> AjunS, suggest you torrent if you're not already.  and, of course, come back if you run into challenges.
[08:23] <AjunS> I bet I will.. but tht should ne after I install kaili menu inside
[08:23] <omg_scout> Well, I am a programmer, and still, I get the freshest possible
[08:23] <gm10_> chanel ubunt-pl
[08:23] <jpds> Dr_Willis: No necessarily, that's the whole point of the backport kernels on 12.04.
[08:24] <AjunS> yeah using IDM on W8 to download it..
[08:24] <gm10_> siema

[08:24] <mister> siema bejbe
[08:25] <gm10_> siema eniu twoja stara sika na piociongi
 wh-hw hi there
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> jpds:  assuming you can get it working to get backports enabled. ;)
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> jpds:  but thats also the point of the point releases i guess
[08:27] <nooneyouknow> I have two really quick questions.
[08:28] <nooneyouknow> Which package do I install for the usual GTK themes, all of the sort of standard ones? How do I make xrandr work inside .xprofile for Xfce? I used /usr/bin/xrandr for the programs path, but that didnt help too much.
[08:28] <wyclif> wh-hw: can't you just install via tarball?
[08:28] <jpds> Dr_Willis: Yep.
[08:28] <Dr_Willis> nooneyouknow:  .xprofile? You mean .xsession?
[08:28] <wh-hw> wyclif, maybe
[08:28] <nooneyouknow> Should I put it in .xsession instead?
[08:29] <nooneyouknow> Will that run after starting Xfce?
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> nooneyouknow:   most likely you sould be making a script and put it in ~/.config/autostart/
[08:29] <wh-hw> wyclif, but why i can't install it with apt-get
[08:29] <nooneyouknow> Okay, Ill look at that too.
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> because as far as i know .xsession and .xinitrc and so forth are ignored if you select a session at  the lightdm screne
[08:29] <nooneyouknow> Excuse my non-working single quote key.
[08:30] <nooneyouknow> Any ideas for the GTK theme question?
[08:30] <nooneyouknow> Ive got the icon themes installed, so thats okay.
[08:30] <wyclif> wh-hw: kmod_9-3.debian.tar.gz I'm guessing
[08:30] <cfhowlett> !sputnik|omg_scout,
[08:30] <Dr_Willis> nooneyouknow:  use the package manager to search for themes, also the webupd8 and omgubuntu sites often have their own ppa's with the best themes out there.
[08:31] <wyclif> you don't need to apt-get, ubuntu has a tar.gz installer right?
[08:31] <wh-hw> wyclif, ok, thx, i will try
[08:31] <nooneyouknow> I swear there was a gtk-goodies package or something which had a whole bunch of themes in it when I last used Ubuntu.
[08:31] <nooneyouknow> Perhaps a gtk-themes or something.
[08:31] <otak> wh-hw: search for packages: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto#Search_commands
[08:31] <wyclif> wh-hw you don't need to apt-get since ubuntu has a tar.gz installer right?
[08:31] <Dr_Willis> theres no such thing as a 'tar.gz' installer.. since a tar.gz COULD be most anything
[08:31] <auronandace> wyclif: tar.gz is an archive, you don't install archives
[08:32] <Dr_Willis> it used to be ages ago you could drag/drop theme files onto the theme settings window and i think it could install them. but all tha tdid  was copy them to .themes i think
[08:32] <wh-hw> i know how to search it \
[08:32] <wh-hw> but there is no package named libkmod
[08:32] <wyclif> auronandace: no I mean the GUI program that shows current tar.gz
[08:32] <wh-hw> what need by udev build
[08:33] <nooneyouknow> Ill Google for theme packages.
[08:34] <Dr_Willis> nooneyouknow:  check the ones at the webupd8 site and ppa. they tend to be the best of the best
[08:36] <nooneyouknow> Dr_Willis: Cool, thanks. You've been a big help.
[08:36] <nooneyouknow> I'll hack an autostart file to fix my screens and look on there for themes.
[08:38] <JustSomeGuy> hi is there something like portaudit from freebsd for ubuntu? i just want a list of packages which need security updates
[08:47] <TJ-> JustSomeGuy: "apt-get -su upgrade | grep security"
[08:50] <wyclif> shashank_: hey
[08:51] <wyclif> updating vim to the latest version
[08:52] <JustSomeGuy> TJ-, works great thx
[08:53] <TJ-> JustSomeGuy: You might want to replace 'upgrade' with 'dist-upgrade' in case there are version update/new packages. Unlikely for security updates, but best to cover all bases
[08:54] <Pingu> hello
[08:54] <cfhowlett> Pingu, greetingss
[08:54] <Pingu> how do I install SDL?
[08:55] <cfhowlett> Pingu, ??? sdl?
[08:55] <kostkon> Pingu, "sdl" could be any of these packages
[08:55] <kostkon> !find sdl
[08:56] <Pingu> http://www.libsdl.org/download-1.2.php
[08:56] <MasterOfDisaster> Pingu: what do you want to do with it?
[08:56] <kostkon> Pingu, what are you trying to do
[08:56] <Pingu> I downloaded runtime libraries
[08:56] <Pingu> it is a dependency for a game
[08:57] <Pingu> or compiling one
[08:57] <Pingu> not sure which
[08:57] <Pricey> Pingu: Ubuntu isn't like Windows. You don't just download random things and install them. Instead, you should see if the software you want is in the repositories first.
[08:57] <Pricey> Pingu: Which game?
[08:57] <MasterOfDisaster> Pingu: check if the game is in a ubuntu ppa, then install it from there.
[08:57] <cfhowlett> !details|Pingu, slow your roll, there, Hoss!  Are you trying to develop games or play them?
[08:58] <Pingu> ubottu: You are very intelligent :)

[08:59] <omg_scout> sdl isn't in repos?
[09:00] <Pingu> repositories
[09:00] <Pingu> dont think it is
[09:00] <kostkon> Pingu, 100s of software uses sdl so obviously it is in the repos
[09:00] <Pingu> haha ok
[09:00] <Pingu> what is the name of the package?
[09:01] <OerHeks> libsdl is the same version in the repositoryshttp://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/libsdl1.2-dev
[09:01] <kostkon> Pingu, are you getting any eroors whn trying to run the game?
[09:02] <kostkon> oh it needs to be compiled first
[09:02] <Pingu> when I run ./configure && make && make install I get  You need SDL 1.2 to run Aleph One.
[09:02] <Pingu> yeah

[09:29] <Acceso> cfhowlett: probably not an option at this time, it's a ubuntu 12.04 derivative.
[09:29] <TJ-> Acceso: You could check for a PPA with a newer version, but that has risks, and I'd suspect that Evolution's dependencies would require many supporting libraries to be upgraded too.
[09:31] <Acceso> TJ-: Thanks for the info, I've been looking for one, I don't seem to have had any luck yet.
[09:31] <TJ-> Acceso: That suggests the dependency stack is too complex to make it viable
[09:32] <Pingu> !find vorbisfile
[09:34] <TJ-> Acceso: An alternative is to create a virtual machine and install a recent version of Ubuntu into it, with the version of Evolution you require, and use that on top of your existing installation when you need the Evolution features.
[09:34] <schnitzl> i have xubuntu, skype sends video upside down, i solved the problem with export "LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=3 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype". now i want to make THIS command the standard whenever i start some link of skype. the one in the bottom menu + the start menu.is this possible to make this somekind of standard?
[09:34] <TJ-> Acceso: Or, install the recent release and Evolution version into a chroot (change root)
[09:35] <Acceso> TJ-: That's definitely an option.
[09:35] <Pingu> still stuck http://pastebin.com/xqwvBBiT
[09:35] <TJ-> schnitzl: You could redirect the skype binary launcher to, say, "skype.real" and then create a "skype" shell-script that sets those before calling "skype.real"
[09:35] <Acceso> TJ-: thanks for all the possibilities you have suggested. What email client do you use and why? For me Exchange is a plus not a must.
[09:36] <schnitzl> okay TJ-, this is a little to high for me. more help would be good! :D
[09:37] <TJ-> Acceso: I used to use Evolution but it became too 'clunky' and most of the Enterprise features weren't needed, so I switched to Mozilla Thunderbird - I use IMAP with approx. 10 separate accounts
[09:37] <Pingu> kostkon, any ideas?
[09:37] <Acceso> TJ-: I see.
[09:39] <kostkon> Pingu, libvorbisfile3?
[09:39] <Pingu> apparently I already have it
[09:40] <TJ-> schnitzl: Its really simple... think about it. Currently all the links to the Skype program point to, say, "/usr/bin/skype" (I don't know the actual file-name so I'm guessing). So, you move/rename that file to, say "/usr/bin/skype.real" and then create a new shell script "/usr/bin/skype" containing the commands you type manually, plus a call to the renamed skype exectuable. Then you make the shell-script executable. All your existing links will then execute your n
[09:40] <TJ-> ew shell script which will configure the correct environment before starting Skype
[09:41] <TJ-> schnitzl: We call that a 'wrapper' script
[09:41] <schnitzl> haha. you are a genius.
[09:41] <schnitzl> thanks man
[09:43] <kostkon> Pingu, libvorbis-dev
[09:43] <kostkon> Pingu, it contains the libvorbisfile.h
[09:43] <Pingu> ok cheers
[09:45] <TJ-> schnitzl: Something like this ought to do it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6149384/
[09:47] <TJ-> schnitzl: correction, removing the quotes from the export. http://paste.ubuntu.com/6149387/
[09:47] <Pingu> I got a few errors but not sure if it is fatal or not http://pastebin.com/r8hkgvzG
[09:48] <TJ-> Pingu: All errors are fatal. In your case it looks as if you're running "make install" ? To install files to system locations the script needs superuser permissions, so you'd need to do it using "sudo make install"
[09:49] <Pingu> ok thanks
[09:51] <Pingu> I ran this again with sudo and got http://pastebin.com/9vbYFBjU
[09:51] <Pingu> by the way I am running ./configure && make && make install
[09:52] <Pingu> maybe I should do it in smaller bits
[09:52] <Pingu> like separate
[09:53] <TJ-> Pingu: You should only run "sudo make install", not the "./configure" or "make" steps
[09:53] <Pingu> ok I will try that
[09:55] <Pingu> make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[09:55] <TJ-> Pingu: Because you're done a configure and build using 'sudo' it will have created work-product files with root-only access which will now break the build when done as a regular user. You need to first clean up, using something like "sudo make clean" and then build fresh "./configure" then "make" then, if no errors, "sudo make install"
[09:55] <kostkon> Pingu, run sudo make clean  to clean up everything done so far
[09:57] <TJ-> Pingu: It is also possible the source Makefile doesn't have a conventional (expected) 'install' target, which would explain the "No rule to make target" message. In that case you'll need to read the Makefile to identify the correct target name to use, to do the installation step
[09:57] <ikonia> it failed beacause "make" didn't work
[09:57] <airtonix> brotip: use checkinstall instead of make install
[09:57] <ikonia> not because of root
[09:57] <ikonia> it's a "taget" failure
[09:57] <Pingu> ok
[09:57] <ikonia> Pingu: what are you trying to actually build
[09:57] <Pingu> think it will work now
[09:58] <Pingu> http://source.bungie.org/games/marathon.php
[09:58] <ikonia> why do you think it will magically work
[09:58] <ikonia> what has changed
[09:58] <Pingu> well the reason the make failed was becuase I re extracted the zip
[09:58] <Pingu> to start fresh
[09:58] <ikonia> Pingu: honestly - a website that providers such TERRIBLE instructions should really not be used
[09:58] <Pingu> haha yeah
[09:59] <ikonia> Pingu: that is probably the worst/dangerous thing I've seen someone suggest do
[09:59] <Pingu> ok it worked
[10:01] <alex88> hello everyone, is there a way to log every filesystem call of a script ran from console?
[10:01] <ikonia> file system call ?
[10:01] <ikonia> what do you mean ?
[10:01] <LiquidEssence> hey all. I'd just like to ask about scanning a hdd for bad sectors. I know that when using fsck the drive has to be unmounted and it will warn you if that is not the case, telling you that running the check might risk ruining your drive. When I ran badblocks without any options, it didn't say anything and just started scanning, but I had the partition mounted. Because the hdd is quite large I interrupted the scan before it finish
[10:01] <LiquidEssence> ed. Now after putting somme options (badblocks -nvs) it warned me that the drive has to be unounted.  The filesystem seemed to be fine after the interrupted scanI. I guess I'd just like to know if there still a chance that something might have gone wrong and how to chekc
[10:02] <ikonia> LiquidEssence: there is still a chance
[10:02] <kali_eskrima> hello, is this a channel where i can get some ubuntu help?
[10:02] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: it is
[10:02] <kali_eskrima> oh cool!
[10:03] <kali_eskrima> ok.. i got a big problem can i pm you? ikonia?
[10:03] <LiquidEssence> ikonia: is there a way to check it? In what way does scanning a drive while mounted cause damage?
[10:03] <TJ-> alex88: See 'man strace' ... you can do, for example, "strace -o /tmp/strace.log -f -e trace=file <your command>" to write the activity to '/tmp/strace.log'
[10:03] <ikonia> LiquidEssence: not really, as it's block level
[10:03] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: no need to pm me
[10:03] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: just ask the channel
[10:04] <alex88> ikonia: just look at which files a script read and writes
[10:04] <Pingu> well I copied the game files over to /usr/local/share/AlephOne with sudo cp ~/Downloads/Marathon*/* /usr/local/share/AlephOne
[10:04] <ikonia> alex88: you can actually just read the script
[10:04] <ikonia> alex88: it should show you what it reads/writes
[10:04] <kali_eskrima> ok... because i was going to copy and paste, what i already wrote for the launchpad,net.. and its long message/question
[10:04] <alex88> TJ-: isn't strace for debugging compiled tools? I won't get an huge output and not only filesystem calls?
[10:04] <alex88> ikonia: not going to read thousand of lines
[10:04] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: use a pastebin if you need to share long details
[10:04] <Pingu> and I get
[10:04] <Pingu> /usr/local/share/AlephOne
[10:04] <kali_eskrima> what is pastebin?
[10:04] <Pingu> woops not that
[10:05] <ikonia> !pastebin | kali_eskrima
[10:05] <kali_eskrima> sorry im new to this...lost a bit
[10:05] <Pingu> FATAL: Please be sure the files 'Map', 'Shapes', 'Images' and 'Sounds' are correctly installed and try again. (error -1)
[10:05] <Pingu> when I copied them
[10:05] <TJ-> alex88: strace can capture whatever you want, in the example I limited it to file accesses, for the primary script and any children (-f option). "grep" is then your friend when investigating the log
[10:05] <ikonia> Pingu: they are part of the engine, the "game" files
[10:05] <kali_eskrima> ok need to go and try... thanks ,. hold on
[10:05] <alex88> TJ-: oh ok sorry great! ;)
[10:05] <ikonia> Pingu: or you've missed the directories
[10:05] <alex88> thanks!
[10:06] <LiquidEssence> ikonia: oh crap :( I hope that everything will be okay, programs usually warn before doing a risky operation, I guess I should've read the manual first (a lesson for th future). The reason I was checking my drive is that every two or three days the i would get input/output error and would have to run fsck which would recover the journal and then everything would be as it should be again.
[10:06] <Pingu> ikonia, http://pastebin.com/Dg9TcGt7
[10:07] <LiquidEssence> But that's just not normal so I wanted to see if there was anything wong with the disk itself
[10:07] <kali_eskrima> i think i did it right.... here is the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/6149430/
[10:08] <TJ-> LiquidEssence: check the SMART status of the drive, using "smartctl -a", and read the system log "/var/log/kern.log" when you get errors to see whether it is genuine badblocks or some other error (such as controller failure)
[10:08] <ikonia> Pingu: why are you showing me that ?
[10:08] <schnitzl> TJ-, thanks for the script, too, i just got it! yay. learnt sth today :)
[10:08] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: I'm not reading all that
[10:09] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: just a short summary of the problem is all that's needed
[10:09] <Pingu> ikonia, that is the games directory
[10:09] <TJ-> schnitzl: glad you did, learning is the key with open-source
[10:09] <Pingu> ikonia, I think everything is there
[10:09] <ikonia> Pingu: that is not the games directory
[10:09] <schnitzl> yes :D
[10:09] <ikonia> Pingu: it's asking about a directory called "games" and "maps" et
[10:09] <LiquidEssence> TJ-: I tried with SMART, but it said that counter logging was not supported (it is an USB attached external drive and using us, scsi or ata options didn't go through)
[10:09] <ikonia> etc
[10:09] <Pingu> ikonia, yeah
[10:10] <Pingu> ikonia, well in the really bad instructions it says Place the unzipped files in /usr/local/share/AlephOne
[10:10] <Pingu> so thats what I did
[10:10] <kali_eskrima> hmm i tried to do it short but is complicated, because i dont understand the windows 8. and i want to install the ubuntu os to my new laptop. which has already preinstalled <ikonia> <@ubottu>
[10:10] <ikonia> Pingu: I told you about 2 minutes ago "I would not consider using software with such terrible instructions"
[10:11] <kali_eskrima> ok so in short iw ill try
[10:11] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: do you want to replace windows 8 or use ubuntu and windows 8 ?
[10:11] <TJ-> LiquidEssence: aha! As soon as you said "USB" I thought "gotchya" ... many transient faults can occur with USB connected devices, often due to insufficient power for the ports, and/or a combination of devices causing transient interface interruptions. My first test in such cases is to ensure the device has adequate external power, and connect it directly to a USB port on the PC that isn't shared with any other devices
[10:11] <Pingu> ikonia, yeah but I really want it to work even though I could break my system :P
[10:12] <ikonia> Pingu: then contact the people who make the terrible instructions and ask them to clarify
[10:12] <Pingu> ikonia, ok
[10:12] <ikonia> Pingu: the problem is pretty clear, it wants a "maps" directory, there is no maps directory, it wants a "games" directory, there is no games directory etc
[10:12] <kali_eskrima> i want to replace the windows 8. but i was afraid to touch to much the bios and the setting becuase i didnt got a recovery cd with my laptop. supposedly is somewhere inside the directory and i can just burn a copy.. but i dont know how... so yeah i just want to install the ubuntu.,
[10:12] <LiquidEssence> TJ-: I haven't thought about that! I will try to connect it to some other port then, if it's just the problem with the power, that is the least to worry then (except that stupid thing with running badblocks on a mounted drive, duh! :) )  I unmounted the drive and will let fsck -c run on it to see what it will report
[10:13] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: I'd fist contact your vendor about getting the recovery media you use
[10:13] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: do that before doing anything else
[10:14] <LiquidEssence> TJ- and ikonia: Thanks for your advices! So power supply irregularities can cause input/output errors as well?
[10:14] <kali_eskrima> i got the new dvd from uk, i purchased it. and when i put it into the drive, and rebooth my machine, is not booting as ubuntu. it gives me two choices between ubuntu and win8. and when i click ubuntu it says problem for The booting window popped up and said this: Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. to fix this problem: 1. insert your windows installation disc and restart the comput
[10:14] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: so contact the vendor and get the recovery media you need before doing anything else
[10:15] <kali_eskrima> but i dont really like windows 8. i will try to contact them then to see if i can get the recovery. i actually searched in the laptop under recovery, and i found it but i didnt want to do it, because its lame the win8. confusing.
[10:15] <kali_eskrima> ok..
[10:15] <Pingu> ikonia, well this would have saved time
[10:15] <Pingu> ikonia, http://sourceforge.net/p/marathon/wiki/Linux%20Install%20Instructions/
[10:15] <ikonia> Pingu: not sure why you are showing me this
[10:16] <kali_eskrima> so anyway why my win 8 bios is only showhing the boot #1 for windows, but no cd room-dvd option?
[10:16] <Pingu> ikonia, it is a list of packages I needed
[10:16] <ikonia> windows 8 is not a bios
[10:16] <TJ-> LiquidEssence: power starvation is one of the most regular issues with USB devices... each port is supposed to be able to provide 0.5amps on each port but many times, especially with cascading hubs, they can't, especially when many ports are in use (and sometimes those ports are internal to a laptop and not obviously shared with the external ports)
[10:16] <ikonia> Pingu: that is for building - you have already built it
[10:16] <ikonia> Pingu: so you already have those packages, or it would not have built
[10:17] <kali_eskrima> even when i put the usb with the ubuntu installation bootable, is not doing anything. my win8 os is one one partition and the other partition is free, nothing on it.
[10:17] <Pingu> ikonia, yes was just saying it would of saved time
[10:17] <ikonia> Pingu: not really
[10:17] <ikonia> Pingu: as you already had the packages, so it wouldn't have made a difference
[10:17] <Pingu> ikonia, but there is no info on how to install it
[10:17] <ikonia> Pingu: yes there is - on the front page
[10:17] <kali_eskrima> i just dont understand, why is not showing to boot from dvd-cd room, as it used to be like that with windows xp, me, and 2000
[10:17] <ikonia> they are terrible instructions, but they are in essence "it"
[10:17] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: as in ##windows
[10:17] <Pingu> ikonia, I mean not very good information
[10:18] <ikonia> Pingu: I know this - I've said this 3 times and that I wouldn't install/trust software so poor
[10:18] <kali_eskrima> what that means? ##windows?
[10:18] <Pingu> ikonia, yeah sorry for bugging you about it
[10:18] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: /join ##windows - it will put you into a windows chat channel
[10:18] <ikonia> Pingu: it's not bugging me about it, I'm not bothered, the software looks terrible, the instructions look terrible, it's up to you what you do
[10:19] <LiquidEssence> TJ-: okay, thank you for the explanation. After fsck will finish it's thing (or I'll interrupt it again, because after 12 minutes it still has to reach 1 percent, which is projected than to last over 2 hours), I'll reconnect it to another usb port, Just one more question: why is running fsck or badblocks while having the drive mounted dangerous?
[10:19] <kali_eskrima> i see, so before anything i will have to resolve from windows side, what is the problem of the windows bios?
[10:19] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: windows is not the bios !
[10:19] <Pingu> ikonia, true
[10:19] <LiquidEssence> * (over 25 hours projected time :))
[10:19] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: I suggest getting your laptop to a working state first
[10:20] <TJ-> LiquidEssence: Basically, the contents of the mounted file-system might change whilst the fsck is looking for inconsistencies, which can cause it to report problems that aren't really there
[10:20] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: or just installing ubuntu and dumping windows - but remember, there will be no way back until you get the recovery media
[10:20] <soman> I want to send a mail with mutt. I cannot understand from web topics: from what account the message will be sent?
[10:20] <LiquidEssence> TJ-: so it's not a problem for the data on the drive itself? I mean stuff won't get wiped?
[10:20] <kali_eskrima> i know windows is not bios, but currently is runinng on windows, and when i boot it its windows bios! and my laptop is new, just bought it
[10:20] <ikonia> soman: the account you are logged in as
[10:20] <Pingu> ikonia, yeah well on this page http://sourceforge.net/p/marathon/wiki/File%20Locations/#linuxbsd_1 it says the files are located in ~/.alephone when on my machine that directory doesnt exist
[10:21] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: if you know it's not a bios, why do you keep saying "windows bios"
[10:21] <kali_eskrima> i know there is no way back, and i dont want to keep the win 8, its horrible
[10:21] <TJ-> LiquidEssence: For large drives I always remove them from the external USB enclosure and hook them up directly on a PATA/SATA/SCSI interface for whole-disk checks... saves SO much time :) In fact, I have a machine here called 'caddy' which is filled with hot-plug caddies for that very reason!
[10:21] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: ok, so you need to get your hardware to boot an ubuntu install DVD or USB
[10:21] <soman> ikonia: you mean my ubuntu account?
[10:21] <TJ-> LiquidEssence: If you've not told fsck to make changes, it is fine
[10:21] <kali_eskrima> because the system that is currently on is windows. does that make sense? is not ubuntu yet
[10:21] <ikonia> soman: no, the system account you are using on the system
[10:21] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: it makes no sense
[10:21] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: I understand you are using windows - but there is no such thing as "windows bios"
[10:21] <soman> ikonia: but what about if I want to use my gmail account or some other
[10:22] <LiquidEssence> TJ-: I'l take that into consideration.
[10:22] <ikonia> soman: then you setup mutt to interact with gmail
[10:22] <kali_eskrima> so what bios is than? whats the name of it?
[10:22] <soman> ikonia: ok, thanks
[10:22] <LiquidEssence> TJ-: thanks again!
[10:22] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: the bios is the small sofware device built into your hardware that controls the hardware even before/without any operating system
[10:23] <kali_eskrima> i have dvd installation cd and usb.. none of them want to boot. if you can read my message, you might understand. i said is complicated. sorry
[10:23] <kali_eskrima> ok so is just bios,.,
[10:23] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: so either a.) your media is bad b.) your hardware is not configured to boot those devices
[10:23] <kali_eskrima> sorry my ignorance.
[10:23] <kali_eskrima> yes i think the optoin b
[10:23] <kali_eskrima> option b
[10:24] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: ok, so now you have a direction to focus on
[10:24] <kali_eskrima> because it doesnt give me any other options.
[10:25] <TJ-> kali_eskrima: When a PC starts the CPU begins with instructions stored in non-volatile Read-Only memory, which is the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) or EFI (Extended Firmware Interface). That code sets up RAM timings and hardware devices and then eventually loads the first sector from the boot device which begins the boot-loader process, which in turn looks for and loads the operating system kernel. When the PC starts you get an option to enter Setup, and from t
[10:25] <TJ-> hat Setup you can configure boot devices and the order in which they are scanned for a boot sector.
[10:27] <kali_eskrima> aha sounds easy, im just afraid to touch to much and mess it up. i would need step by step instructions, but i know you guys here are more for short and quick answers. thank you anyway, i will wait on the launchpad if anyone is willing to  help me in detail.
[10:27] <Nony> Kali_eskrima: to be honest i did not read what you wrote earlier so maybe i am off track. But i had to disable secureboot to get mine working
[10:27]  * ANub slaps kali_eskrima around a bit with a large trout
[10:27] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: people are not for short answers here
[10:27] <ikonia> ANub: please don't do that
[10:28] <guest-Nosksy> hi
[10:29] <kali_eskrima> no i didnt meant in a bad way, sorry my english is not first language, i meant mostly like right away help and to target the spot and fix it right away., i will need slow doing and thinking, and to try and try until i get the right EFI mode
[10:30] <Nony> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[10:30] <Nony> that helped me get mine going
[10:30] <kali_eskrima> thank you tho for your effort, i think i know what is the problem, i just dont know how to fix it right away. and i needed to use ubuntu for my projects. i will figure it out, thank you and sorry for any offense i might said.
[10:31] <kali_eskrima> is that link for me??
[10:31] <Nony> yes
[10:31] <kali_eskrima> btw how do u slap ppl around with the trout ? haha
[10:31] <kali_eskrima> thank you nony! will look into it
[10:33] <Nony> kali_eskrima i had trouble getting mine to install and boot after i cleared win8 which came with my laptop. In the end I got it going after disabling secureboot theres a bit in that link i gave you that shows you how
 right click on the name and SLAP!!!!! :)
[10:33] <Nony> sorry if thats not what your problemis related to i did not read everything you wrote
[10:33] <Nony> laters
[10:34] <kali_eskrima> and im actually very new to the ubuntu os, so im still learning. does anyone know where can i get  some manual on ubuntu os and how to install and use the black window..i forgot the name..
[10:34] <kali_eskrima> thank  you !!!
[10:35] <Nony> after you install just google what you want
[10:35] <kali_eskrima> haha cool all this little tricks in the irc chanell. and i dont know what it means CTCP version request
[10:35] <kali_eskrima> thanks nony! will try
[10:35] <kali_eskrima> haha yeah there is so much to google about. and youtube too,
[10:36] <TJ-> kali_eskrima: For the documentation/help see https://help.ubuntu.com/
[10:36] <TJ-> kali_eskrima: The 'black window' is, I think, the "terminal" that you are referring to
[10:37] <kali_eskrima> yes the terminal, sorry! haha
[10:37] <rizzuh> Hi. I'm trying to connect to a MySQL server using Navicat via SSH tunneling. For some reason I get the error "Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet'". What is the underlying cause? TCP forwarding is allowed in ssh_config.
[10:38] <kali_eskrima> ok got all the links, thanks! will look at them all
[10:39] <kali_eskrima> nony one question. u said u had trouble to install too and clear the win 8. so your ubuntu cd/usb was not recognized in bios? or when you booted with it?
[10:42] <Nony> It would not boot with it
[10:47] <ANub> anyone used disk / partition imaging tool on ubuntu as good as norton ghost (MS), besides partimage???
[10:47] <irssi-mike> !une
[10:47] <Guest93572> hellooo
[10:47] <TJ-> ANub: I use "dd"
[10:48] <ANub> TJ-:: dd is good for whole disk backup...not for data portion only
[10:48] <TJ-> ANub: You said "disk / partition" imaging.
[10:49] <ANub> yeap
[10:49] <TJ-> ANub: hence my mention of 'dd'
[10:49] <ANub> i mean only "valuable" data on a disk / partition
[10:49] <ANub> like "macrium / norton ghost
[10:50] <ANub> partimage is also good.....but takes way longer than MS utilities
[10:50] <TJ-> ANub: Well, I use LVM and have LVs assigned for specific purposes for that reason, which is why 'dd' is useful for my use-case, in combination with pipes through gzip and netcat, for example.
[10:51] <ANub> TJ-:: ive tried what you have said......but its wayyyy too slow than "partimage"
[10:52] <OerHeks> dd is faster then Ghost.
[10:52] <ANub> but if you don not compress and write at bs=32M then its fast...but image size is huge
[10:52] <CatKiller> ANub: Check out clonezilla
[10:52] <CatKiller> it's a collection of many linux utilities
[10:52] <TJ-> ANub: Maybe you're doing it in some inefficient way, then, since dd operates on raw block devices and will generally run the device at the maximum speed the interface will support
[10:52] <CatKiller> all packaged up in a bootable image. You can easily create "ghost like" images
[10:53] <CatKiller> and you can pick the "type" of image: partition only, full drive
[10:53] <ANub> CatKiller:: clonezilla uses the same technique as that of partimage.....just more functionalities
[10:53] <CatKiller> or even "compressed filesystem"
[10:53] <CatKiller> yes it's pretty efficient
[10:53] <kali_eskrima> thats what i have a problem with too. ok will do more research into and make a recovery disk just in case. and than try to fix the bios boot. thanks nony! and all of you guys/girls!
[10:53] <CatKiller> compressed filesystem means that a 1000TB partition with 1GB used will yield a < 1GB image
[10:53] <Nony> kali_eskrima disable secureboot and try booting from usb after that. Should work
[10:54] <CatKiller> works with many FS types including HFS+!
[10:54] <kali_eskrima> sorry to ask what would be considered a secureboot from pc view?
[10:54] <Nony> ahh from what i read back then something to do with new bios feature that stops malicious software from booting. basically microsoft controls what you can and cant boot
[10:55] <CatKiller> kali_eskrima: Secureboot: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface#Secure_boot_2
[10:55] <Nony> you go into bios and turn it off
[10:55] <ANub> Cat:: if you have used clonezilla??......which one would you rate more efficient (time + comp ratio)......partimage or clonezilla
[10:55] <ANub> ??
[10:55] <kali_eskrima> and if i do that will that completely change and destroy my memory of booting? in case i do not want to do that, can i go back and change it to as it was?
[10:55] <CatKiller> Well partimage, as you said earlier, is a component of clonezilla
[10:55] <kali_eskrima> and save and exit after i turn it off?
[10:55] <Nony> yes its just like changing boot sequence you can change it anytime you want
[10:55] <Nony> yes
[10:55] <CatKiller> the advantage of clonezilla is that you don't need to learn too much about partimage
[10:56] <CatKiller> and it comes in a small, bootable disk
[10:56] <ANub> CatKiller:: thats correct ;)
[10:56] <CatKiller> the disadvantage is that it can take a few tries before getting it to backup correctly (without having to actually go through with the backup) since the interface is a bit buggy
[10:56] <CatKiller> but I find it's worth it
[10:56] <kali_eskrima> because i tried to 'enable' the 'launch CSM' ...and than save and exit.,and when i came back, it was like i never saved.no changes!
[10:56] <CatKiller> haven't tried a restore yet though :P
[10:56] <CatKiller> But I "imagine" it works. Anyways they're partimage images
[10:57] <CatKiller> it has some nice added functionalities of backing up the partition table
[10:57] <ANub> ive tried it multiple times....backup and restore.......and i luv it..plain & simple
[10:57] <CatKiller> in case you want to restore the entire disk without having to make an entire clone
[10:57] <CatKiller> So what was the original question? :)
[10:57] <CatKiller> Is there something better?
[10:57] <ANub> yeah...is there...???
[10:58] <Nony> give it a shot kali_eskrima
[10:58] <ANub> (time + compression ratio)
[10:58] <kali_eskrima> ok will do. and where is the secureboot located... under the section of boot? coz i dont have that i just looked at the screen shot i got
[10:58] <CatKiller> I don't think so
[10:58] <CatKiller> it's already pretty good
[10:58] <CatKiller> it can also compress using multicore
[10:59] <Nony> check the link i sent you i do not remember i did this about 4-5 months ago
[10:59] <CatKiller> so I mean how much better could it get? :p
[10:59] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: everyone's hardware/bios is different, you should contact your vendor and ask them to walk you through it if you cannot see it yourself
[10:59] <d__> Hi koderam!
[11:00] <ANub> CatKiller::: just to give you an idea.....macrium (16 GB data, compressed into 8 GB in 7 min) while partimage (16GB data, compressed into 10 GB in 23 min)
[11:00] <T4h> If anyone needs some help about windows 95 i'm here
[11:00] <CatKiller> ANub: Same data?
[11:00] <ANub> yeap..same data
[11:00] <ikonia> T4h: please don't be silly - this is an ubuntu support channel
[11:00] <CatKiller> using multicore?
[11:00] <CatKiller> what compression algo?
[11:00] <ANub> yeap....i5
[11:00] <T4h> ikonia no prob, but i just tell you
[11:01] <CatKiller> No but I mean using multiple cores to compress the image?
[11:01] <kali_eskrima> all i have in the boot section is: (in the cascade way)....fast boot (disabled); launch cms (disabled); boot priorities..boot #1 windows boot manager; boot #2 none / or usb UEFI 8.07 (if i plug and reboot with the usb key)... hmmmm
[11:01] <CatKiller> By default it might not do that
[11:01] <CatKiller> It's not really magic in the end
[11:01] <CatKiller> You're either not using all cores, or the compression algo is not as efficient
[11:01] <kali_eskrima> all i have in the boot section is: (in the cascade way)....fast boot (disabled); launch cms (disabled); boot priorities..boot #1 windows boot manager; boot #2 none / or usb UEFI 8.07 (if i plug and reboot with the usb key)... hmmmm
[11:01] <CatKiller> or a combination of both
[11:01] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: stop repeating it
[11:02] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: if you are unsure - contact your hardware vendor and ask them for the process to disable secure boot
[11:02] <kali_eskrima> oh sorry didnt saw that i double said it
[11:02] <Nony> yes thats the best way
[11:02] <ikonia> kali_eskrima: everyone elses menu's are different as it depends on the hardware, if you are in any doubt your hardware vendor can walk you through the process
[11:02] <kali_eskrima> ok will do that
[11:02] <ANub> CatKiller:: can you force multicore utilization in "partimage"...?
[11:02] <kali_eskrima> sorry
[11:02] <schnitzl> weird problem. if i boot up my ubuntu server, i got stockin the ubuntu loading screen, some kind of boot loop. no x.org installed. just console. i can ctrl+alt+3 to chang to another tty....any ideas why tty1 isnt working?
[11:03] <schnitzl> i have full access via ssh too
[11:03] <schnitzl> dafuq?
[11:03] <CatKiller> ANub: I don't know how since I use clonezilla which does everything for your
[11:03] <CatKiller> s/your/you
[11:03] <CatKiller> ANub: And allows you to pick different compression algorithms
[11:03] <kali_eskrima> so one more question. do i call the asus company tech support or the place i bought it?
[11:03] <ANub> CatKiller:: so you can force multicore in clonezilla???
[11:04] <TJ-> schnitzl: If you Alt+F1 to tty1 does the login prompt show? Because, due to plymouth, the boot messages are on tty7 usually
[11:04] <Nony> asus
[11:04] <Nony> the place you bought it  prob has nubs working there
[11:04] <schnitzl> TJ-, no
[11:04] <schnitzl> just alt f2, f3, etc
[11:04] <schnitzl> alt f1 just a black screen
[11:04] <CatKiller> ANub: You said you used clonezilla all the time :P
[11:04] <CatKiller> I'm getting confused here
[11:04] <kali_eskrima> haha what is a nub? ok asus it is
[11:05] <ANub> no i said...i use partimage all the time
[11:05] <TJ-> schnitzl: Check /etc/init/console.conf and /etc/init/tty1.conf is being run by upstart
[11:05] <CatKiller> this is what is happening: You use a different tool which may leverage all cores and use a different compression algorithm. So you need to do the same with partimage
[11:05] <CatKiller> ANub: Ok, I don't know then.
[11:05] <ANub> i just used clonezilla a couple of times ....didn't explore much.......but now i would...:)
[11:05] <CatKiller> ANub: and if you compare both tools you need to use the same compression algorithm
[11:06] <CatKiller> LZMA is good for instance
[11:06] <CatKiller> it's usually fast
[11:06] <ANub> yeap it is
[11:06] <schnitzl> TJ-, howto??? :(
[11:06] <pickels> I have a web server on my local network but my router keeps changing the ip. It seems my router also doesn't have a setting to give the same ip to the same mac address. I was wondering if there is an other solution to access the server that doesn't involve an ip?
[11:07] <ANub> CatKiller:: thnx for the handy info......i think i'm gonna play with both and compare results
[11:07] <ihre> pickels: couldnt you define a static ip in /etc/network/interfaces on your webserver?
[11:08] <schnitzl> is rc.local run by tty1?
[11:08] <pickels> ihre: ah I thought the router dictated which ip a devices gets.
[11:08] <schnitzl> cause i think my rc.local causes a zombie process. this might be the cause?
[11:08] <TJ-> schnitzl: No. Upstart runs all jobs defined in /etc/init/*.conf
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> schnitzl: its run by root before the login prompt of any kind is started (CLI or GUI)
[11:08] <otak> pickels: have you tried accessing <servername>.local ? If avahi is enabled on both machines this should work without .local !
[11:09] <kali_eskrima> its nice that you guys never get tired to help people and repeating same stuff. thanks! bye!
[11:09] <schnitzl> ok. so rc.local cant be the problem.
[11:09] <gordonjcp> kali_eskrima: we use a bot for the heavy lifting ;-)
[11:09] <ihre> pickels: no, your router also acts as a dhcp server, whichs leases IP addresses, but you could set a static IP manually on your server itself, then it's persistent
[11:09] <schnitzl> TJ-, so what do i need to check in the *.conf 's?
[11:10] <pickels> ihre: I'll give it a shot. Thanks a lot.
[11:10] <TJ-> schnitzl: ensure /etc/init/tty1.conf exists, and, in the boot-up messages, ensure you see it being started
[11:10] <kali_eskrima> thats good, thanks tho. im kind of lost with all the info you can find in a pc, and its system. especially ubuntu coz im new to it.
[11:10] <ihre> pickels: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/network-configuration.html#name-resolution the second code part
[11:10] <kali_eskrima> have a fun night/day!
[11:11] <schnitzl> it exists....i have no boot up message. it justs loops into this screen: http://i.stack.imgur.com/TVVBS.png
[11:12] <TJ-> schnitzl: hang on; booting a test server here to check
[11:12] <schnitzl> nice. :)
[11:12] <schnitzl> its not exactly the same picture, but you get what i mean....its ubuntu 12.04 server.
[11:13] <TJ-> schnitzl: That's the plymouth splash-screen. Press Escape key to switch to the text console that it obscures
[11:15] <schnitzl> yes. perfect.
[11:15] <schnitzl> ok. i got the problem. its my rc.local
[11:16] <schnitzl> with my rc.local i start a server. this server keeps running
[11:16] <TJ-> schnitzl: aha
[11:17] <schnitzl> i guess i just send it to the bg
[11:18] <TJ-> schnitzl: Or convert it to a simple upstart job in /etc/init/ !
[11:18] <silv3r_m00n> how can i print multiple images to a single pdf file
[11:18] <schnitzl> mmm..... If you say this is better, I will try it
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> schnitzl: remember to add an ampersand to the command to background it so as to not hang the boot
[11:19] <schnitzl> my rc.local: cd /usr/share/openra/ && ./start.sh &
[11:20] <TJ-> schnitzl: See for example http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#exec
[11:21] <schnitzl> with the ampersand it works perfectly. thanks. but maybe i should lern more about what TJ- said. i never got into upstart. i find it very confusing.
[11:22] <TJ-> schnitzl: You're not the only one, but if you read the other (simple) upstart scripts it makes sense
[11:23] <schnitzl> i would love to do more with linux, but my system is just not fully compatible :(
[11:25] <Ceninant> schnitzl, how so?
[11:26] <TJ-> schnitzl: There's an openra init.d start-up script example here https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/wiki/Dedicated
[11:27] <schnitzl> Ceninant, i have an asus ux51vz, and a lot of stuff doesnt work. lie fn keys, touchpad is weird, 2nd gfx card config, external monitor support, etc.. :(
[11:30] <pickels> otak: I missed your answer. hostname.local actually works without having to change something. Thanks a lot :)
[11:30] <TJ-> schnitzl: Are you using/testing the latest (3.12 rc) kernel releases?
[11:31] <Ceninant> Ah. Laptop issues.
[11:32] <whatever_42> hey. i just installed ubuntu 12.04 on my t440s. it has an intel 7260 wireless chip. according to lshw it is currently "unused". how do i use it?
[11:32] <ikonia> whatever_42: is your wireless working ?
[11:33] <whatever_42> no it is not
[11:33] <ikonia> whatever_42: ok, so the first thing to do would be to look at the syslog and see what happens during boot, does it find the card, try to configure it, fai l
[11:33] <ikonia> whatever_42: have you tried to configure the wireles card yet ?
[11:34] <whatever_42> i was googling around and hit on iwlwifi
[11:34] <ikonia> whatever_42: have you tried to configure the wireles card yet ?
[11:34] <whatever_42>  i wouldn't go that far
[11:34] <TJ-> whatever_42: The log should confirm the firmware is being loaded (iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode)
[11:35] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip: are you there?
[11:35] <ikonia> whatever_42: it's not a hard question, have you tried to configure the wireless card, yes / no
[11:35] <whatever_42> ikonia: no
[11:35] <root> rt
[11:35] <Guest16488> wwwubuntucom
[11:35] <TJ-> whatever_42: You'll need linux 3.11rc1 or later to support the 7260
[11:35] <ikonia> whatever_42: ok, look at the network menu/applet in the top right, is your wireless card there ?
[11:36] <whatever_42> i do have that
[11:36] <whatever_42> ok
[11:36] <ikonia> TJ-: are you sure it needs 3.11 for the 7260 ?
[11:36] <whatever_42> there are 3 lines in my syslog mentioning 7260
[11:36] <whatever_42> i will post them on pastebin hang on
[11:37] <ikonia> TJ-: are you sure it needs 3.11 for the 7260 ?
[11:37] <whatever_42> ikonia http://pastebin.com/3CzVq6h8
[11:37] <whatever_42> ikonia: these are the 3 lines metioning 7260
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: aye
[11:38] <TJ-> whatever_42: As I said earlier you'll need the firmware file: "request for firmware file 'iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode' failed"
[11:38] <whatever_42> and where would i place it?
[11:38] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip: do you remembed my youtube audio with google-chrome issue from the other day?
[11:38] <Kartagis> remember*
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: half
[11:38] <ikonia> TJ-: are you sure it needs 3.11 for the 7260 ?
[11:38] <TJ-> whatever_42: /lib/firmware
[11:39] <whatever_42> ikonia: done
[11:39] <whatever_42> ikonia: reboot?
[11:39] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip: you told me to killall pulseaudio
[11:39] <Kartagis> had told me*
[11:39] <ikonia> whatever_42: not yet, as TJ- it's missing the firmware
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: yes
[11:39] <Kartagis> well, it happened again. how can I make sure it doesn't happen again?
[11:40] <TJ-> ikonia: Yes.
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: maybe there is a bug
[11:40] <ikonia> TJ-: I don't know myself, I'm just poking around the net but see a reference to 3.10, hence the question.
[11:40] <whatever_42> ikonia: my current kernel 3.11.1-031101-generic
[11:40] <ikonia> whatever_42: that doesn't look like an ubuntu kernel
[11:40] <ikonia> whatever_42: where did that come from
[11:41] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip: do you think with pulseaudio or google-chrome?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: maybe a combo of both
[11:41] <TJ-> ikonia: commit a2d0909 introduced support. "git describe --contains a2d0909" = v3.11-rc1~64^2~78^2^2~21^2~13
[11:41] <whatever_42> ikonia: checking browser history hang on
[11:41] <deepblue> i had 2 remove mdm and use gdm instead,how will this affect the comp.?2 elaborate my question:will it cause cinnamon 2 crash?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: if you run:  killall pulseaudio   after you login, is it ok?
[11:41] <ikonia> TJ-: perfect thank you for clarifying
[11:41] <whatever_42> ikonia: found the how to on this page http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-the-linux-kernel-3-11-1-on-ubuntu-linux-mint-elementary-os-and-debian/
[11:42] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip: I killall and then play the video, it's okay
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: then add it as a startup item
[11:42] <ikonia> whatever_42: that guide is terrible,
[11:42] <TJ-> whatever_42: Did you install the kernel from the Ubuntu Kernel mainline PPA archive?
[11:42] <ikonia> whatever_42: are you using 13.04 or 13.10 ?
[11:42] <TJ-> whatever_42: Because the associated firmware package ought to be in the same place
[11:42] <whatever_42> i am using 12.04.3
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> TJ-: yes but its not an official ubuntu kernel, hence the issuez
[11:42] <ikonia> whatever_42: that's bad then, you've pulled in a saucy kernel from PPA
[11:43] <ikonia> it's all going to be out of sync
[11:43] <TJ-> ActionParsnip: precisely, no one said it was.
[11:43] <ikonia> which is probably why none of the other deps, such as the firmware are there
[11:43] <whatever_42> ikonia: so what do i need to now?
[11:43] <TJ-> whatever_42: I'd think you'll need something more recent that 12.04 with kernel 3.11 ... there were some changes that mean newer userspace interfaces may be required for certain parts of the system.
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> I'd ask in #linux
[11:44] <ikonia> whatever_42: a good question.....
[11:44] <ikonia> whatever_42: I'd certailny try to undo what you've done and then move forward fro there
[11:44] <ikonia> from
[11:44] <ikonia> but for ubuntu 12.04 - you may need to wait for saucy to be released and then backports to arrive
[11:44] <TJ-> whatever_42: I run the latest kernels from the Ubuntu mainline PPA archive myself, and I've found for 3.11/3.12 you really need Ubuntu 13.04 userspace
[11:45] <whatever_42> TJ: so if i want to use my wifi i need to upgrade to ubuntu 13.04?
[11:46] <TJ-> whatever_42: It would make avoiding other issues besides lack of kernel support less likely to hit you. You'll still need the recent kernel and firmware packages
[11:46] <whatever_42> kernel 3.11 is not available in the ubuntu repos is it?
[11:46] <varunendra> whatever_42, right now the driver is complaining for the firmware file only. That particular firmware seems to be included in a debian package here : http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/firmware-iwlwifi/download
[11:47] <TJ-> whatever_42: no, it's made available by the Ubuntu/Canonical kernel team as a clean mainline build for Ubuntu (so the configs match)
[11:47] <varunendra> whatever_42, I'd suggest to just extract the required firmware from the above package, and copy it to the desired location, and see if it works.
[11:48] <TJ-> whatever_42: The firmware file you need is in the Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy) archive: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/linux-firmware
[11:48] <whatever_42> so i'll just wait for 13.10?
[11:49] <varunendra> whatever_42, a similar solution seems to be here : http://askubuntu.com/a/331696
[11:51] <whatever_42> varunendra: can or should i keep my current kernel?
[11:51] <AlecTaylor> hi
[11:52] <varunendra> whatever_42, since the suggested solution is also based on 3.11 kernel, I'd suggest you keep it for now, just try the firmware and decide accordingly.
[11:52] <TJ-> whatever_42: For now, stick with what you have and just add that missing firmware file. If that solves your issue, you've saved a lot of effort
[11:52] <whatever_42> ok then i will try the solution varunendra posted
[11:52] <varunendra> Good luck :)
[11:53] <whatever_42> thank you guys
[11:56] <TJ-> whatever_42: This will fetch and install the firmware for you: "wget -O - http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-firmware/linux-firmware_1.114.tar.gz | tar -Oxz linux-firmware-saucy/iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode | sudo dd of=/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode"
[11:57] <schnitzl> TJ-, sry was afk. no, i just installed 1204 server. nothing fancy. why?
[11:57] <whatever_42> TJ: i do not what the solution posted before suggests?
[11:57] <schnitzl> standard kernel

[12:09] <Malinus> I've deleted the ubuntu launch from my grube. So now I can only launch windows. What should I do?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> Malinus: is Ubuntu installed on the system?
[12:10] <Malinus> yeah. do I need to reinstall grube? Can't I jsut like run a command?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> Malinus: it's Grub, not Grube
[12:11] <Malinus> right, grub.
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> Malinus: GRand Unified Bootloader
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> Malinus: soi where do you get Grube from?
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> Malinus: anyway
[12:11] <Malinus> ActionParsnip, yes I have ubuntu installed already.
[12:11] <cfhowlett> !grub  !
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> Malinus: there is a guide on OMGUbuntu called: sticking it to Grub
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> Malinus: you can chroot to the installed OS, and instate Grub to the MBR

[12:15] <ActionParsnip> linu: look in ~/.config/menu  I think it is, it leaves entries in there
[12:15] <Vanfanel> (sorry)
[12:16] <Vanfanel> thank you guys, I know, I just made a mistake :D
[12:16] <Vanfanel> the package I want/need to install is linux-image-3.5.0-223-omap4
[12:16] <Vanfanel> it's on ubuntu-armhf
[12:16] <Vanfanel> the PPA is TIOMAP
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> linu: yes, in ~/.config/menus/applications-merged
[12:16] <cfhowlett> !ppa|Vanfanel,
[12:16] <toxboi> Vanfanel: Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: if you cannot add a PPA, you probably shouldnt be using one
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[12:17] <cfhowlett> Vanfanel, the ppa page should tell you exactly how to add it but if you don't know what you're doing, I'd recommend against it...
[12:17] <Vanfanel> I can add that PPA: I added it
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[12:17] <Vanfanel> It's just that I can only install 3.4.x, not 3.5.0
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: see above, run the command, what is output?
[12:18] <Vanfanel> ActionParsnip: wait a moment, I'll copy/paste that
[12:18] <Vanfanel> ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS \n \l
[12:19] <Vanfanel> but according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ti-omap4
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiomap-dev/release; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade    your choice
[12:19] <Vanfanel> It's suported on 12.04
[12:19] <Vanfanel> ah! let's see
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: these are unofficial packages, your system, your risk
[12:19] <linu> ActionParsnip there is no files in .config/menus/applications-merged,what to do to remove ?
[12:20] <Vanfanel> ActionParsnip: I'm on a TI board, officially supported. a Pandaboard
[12:20] <Vanfanel> ActionParsnip: so it shouldnt be dangerous at all
[12:20] <Vanfanel> I think :D
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: yes but the packages from the PPA will NOT be supported here
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> linu: search your home folder for .desktop files
[12:20] <Vanfanel> Ah! yes, yes.. I just needed help installing them
[12:20] <whatever_42> the how to worked by the way
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: the command I gave will add the PPA and update from it, you can also install the packages from it
[12:22] <sha1sum> Anybody have static issues with all audio coming out of Chrome? Chromium audio is fine but for some reason every version of the vanilla Chrome I've tried produces static audio, whether it be flash or HTML5 audio.
[12:22] <sha1sum> (FF and all other browsers and applications also fine)
[12:22] <jpbouza> Hi! I've been trying to install ubuntu 12.04 and 13.03 in an amd phenom machine with no success... I've tried starting the installer with all the extra options, such as nomodeset, and I don't get more than a blank screen.... Is there any other thing I can do?
[12:22] <jpbouza> 10.04 installer works fine
[12:22] <Vanfanel> ActionParsnip: Thanks A LOT! :D
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> sha1sum: are there bugs reported?
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> Vanfanel: again, you probably shouldnt be using a PPA and the packages will NOT be supported here
[12:24] <linu> ActionParsnip i searched .desktop but there is no files in the name of .desktop in home folder
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> linu: or grep the files in ~/.config   for the name of the launcher
[12:25] <tylertwo> exit
[12:25] <fahadash> I installed ubuntu 12.4 LTS on my hp netbook, now my webcam's light that indicates webcam is on, is always on
[12:25] <sha1sum> ActionParsnip: when I googled for it a couple of others have reported the issue but I could not find any official Google communication and there are no fixes reported along with the individual user reports.
[12:26] <sha1sum> I also have tried disabling all plugins to no avail
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> sha1sum: I suggest you report a bug
[12:34] <SalmanKhalid> hello everybody
[12:35] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:36] <Vanfanel> ActionParsnip: after adding the PPA and running the update & upgrade, it still won't install kernel 3.5, but 3.4. Should I specify version somehow?
[12:37] <Vanfanel> according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ti-omap4, it should be possible to install 3.5 on Ubuntu 12.04
[12:37] <cfhowlett> Vanfanel, that part about ppa not supported here?
[12:38] <Vanfanel> ok, I will try ubuntu-arm then
[12:38] <Vanfanel> thanks, cfhowlett :)
[12:38] <cfhowlett> Vanfanel, best of luck to you.
[12:39] <keeb> cfhowlett: you're a machine
[12:44] <jnhghy> I have a file on a centos server that I want to copy to an ubuntu  client (I know the server and the client ip, I want to start the command by a script so I'm guessing I need a command on the server) I already have openssh-server installed on the ubuntu client, how can I do this? with scp?
[12:45] <ikonia> jnhghy: you'll have to include the password in the script, or use password keys and an ssh agent
[12:45] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu-server|jnhghy,
[12:45] <ihre> jnhghy: yes, that would be easiest, /j #ubuntu-server
[12:45] <ihre> oh wrong paste ^^
[12:46] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> jnhghy: why would you need openssh-server installing on the client system?
[12:48] <Wipster> if anyone has experience with making packages could they look at argyll, its at version 1.4.0 in the saucy repos and upstream its 1.6.0 (http://www.argyllcms.com/)
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: is there not a PPA?
[12:48] <jnhghy> ActionParsnip: don't know if I need it for this task, but I have in any case... this is not a server question as the clients don't have ubuntu server
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> jnhghy: the openssh-server gives an SSH server, so you can use scp in CLI to copy the file
[12:49] <jnhghy> cfhowlett: why should I check ubuntu server? I need to copy a file in an ubuntu desktop throw network ... and I'm looking for solutions...
[12:50] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, /etc/issue? hmmm I see there is a ppa sorry mybad
[12:50] <cfhowlett> jnhghy, my mistake, thought you said you were operating a server
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: yes, cat the issue file, what does it say?
[12:51] <jnhghy> ikonia: If I include the password in the script, should I still use a ssh agent?
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> jnhghy: http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2008/06/perform-ssh-and-scp-without-entering-password-on-openssh/
[12:51] <Wipster> Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch) \n \l
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: then your support is not here, it is in #ubuntu+1
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: prerelease support will move to here on release day
[12:52] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, ah whoops mybad again soz for the noise
[12:53] <ikonia> jnhghy: it's up to you
[12:58] <azalime> any way to encrypt dvds in ubuntu?
[13:03] <deepblue> how 2 resize all icons in one step?
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> deepblue: in appearance somewher I believe you can set icon size
[13:04] <Sp00n> Attempting to upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 but I am getting no new release found
[13:04] <Sp00n> I have installed mate/xfce recently, I fear this has brkoen it
[13:04] <Sp00n> :\
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: you can boot to the 12.04 CD / USB and do an upgrade that way too
[13:05] <Sp00n> yea I was thinking about just doing it from the CD
[13:05] <Sp00n> I just wanted to know how I have managed to break it
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: did you run:  sudo do-release-upgrade
[13:05] <Sp00n> I did
[13:06] <cfhowlett> Sp00n, clean installs just seem to work better ...   next time, if you want the live upgrade, do so immediately the new release comes out.
[13:06] <Sp00n> did an update, upgrade then release-upgrade
[13:06] <Sp00n> Yea I have been putting it off and of course now I go to do it, the damn thing doesn't work
[13:06] <cfhowlett> Sp00n, 11.10 cannot live update to 13.04.
[13:06] <Sp00n> 12.04
[13:06] <Sp00n> not 13
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> cfhowlett: wants to upgrade to 12.04
[13:07] <ActionParsnip> cfhowlett: 14:04 < Sp00n> Attempting to upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 but I am getting no new release found
[13:07] <cfhowlett> Sp00n, try this.  download the 12.04.  install.  set up update policy to go to LTS updates only.  that way, every 2 years, you update and done!
[13:07] <deepblue> ActionParsnip:  i can't find it
[13:07] <cfhowlett> ActionParsnip, got it.
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> deepblue: sudo updatedb; locate *.desktop
[13:16] <bloopletech> I have found a bug in the libgl1-mesa-glx package that causes it to conflict with nvidia-current (i.e. nvidia-304). This is on raring _without_ using xorg-edgers ppa or anything similar, just the base raring/raring-updates/restricted. Where is the right place to report this where it won't disappear into /dev/null?
[13:17] <bloopletech> Also, I guess I need to find a workaround for now as well
[13:17] <cfhowlett> !bug|bloopletech,
[13:18] <bloopletech> cfhowlett, sure; that just submits a bug to launchpad right? Though that might be the official way, I have already seen a bug I've had be ignored, so I'm looking for something a bit closer to the package maintainers
[13:19] <cfhowlett> bloopletech, as that's the approved and recommended method ... still I THINK there's an  #ubuntu-devel  channel    ?
[13:19] <hid> hi, i have a problem with the terminal. It displays bash: cd: $@: No such file or directory when i want to cd, ls or whatever else...
[13:20] <hid> do someone know how to solve it?
[13:21] <belkinsa> Does Planet Ubuntu have a feed link?
[13:24] <hid> i checked 'which cd' but i have no response
[13:25] <cfhowlett> hid, try pwd
[13:25] <hid> cfhowlett: it works. I'm in ~
[13:25] <hid> it seems that only cd does not work
[13:26] <deepblue> ActionParsnip: it didn't work,nothing is changed
[13:26] <cfhowlett> hid I'd guess that you're not quite typing the command correctly - an extra or missing space can frag your command, for example.
[13:26] <SANDU123> hi, I have installed ubuntu 12.04 in a win 8 pc. But win 8 doesn't appears in the boot grub..How can I fix this ???
[13:27] <hid> cfhowlett: i type cd Docu then tabulation and the word is autocompleted. So this directory works
[13:28] <cfhowlett> hid, and this is how we learn ... have fun!
[13:28] <Ceninant> SANDU123, short version is edit grub. I don't know what the long version is.
[13:28] <hid> ah lbats ;)
[13:28] <NeoKarna> Ceninant,  what do you mean ?
[13:29] <ubuntu_user> I recently ran tor in ubuntu 12.04 LTS having unity interface. I clicked on "Hide" Button and now i can't see it anywhere on left hand bar. Where is it?
[13:29] <SANDU123> Ceninant: i don't understand..plz explain
[13:29] <ubuntu_user> How can i access it?
[13:30] <Sp00n> so after installing mate, my install now thinks its mint which is why it won't upgrade
[13:30] <SANDU123> ubuntu_user: download and run vidalia
[13:30] <cfhowlett> !mate
[13:30] <NeoKarna> SANDU123,  see if this works http://askubuntu.com/questions/325788/windows-8-doesnt-appear-in-the-bootloader-after-installing-ubuntu-13-04
[13:30] <ikonia> Sp00n: very doubtful thats the case
[13:30] <ikonia> Sp00n: made does not change your system identification
[13:30] <ikonia> "mate"
[13:31] <Sp00n> well the lsb-release file changed
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: how did you install mate?
[13:31] <SANDU123> thnx in advance..let me try
[13:32] <Sp00n> ActionParsnip, "sudo apt-get install linuxmint-keyring" then "sudo apt-get install mint-meta-mate"
[13:32] <ikonia> Sp00n: those items will not be in the ubuntu repos
[13:32] <Sp00n> correct
[13:32] <Sp00n> i had to add the mint repo
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: then it pulled in a mint package which changed your system
[13:32] <dp> so apt-get supports mirror://. apt-file doesn't seem to. any suggestions on a better method to find the files that are in a package?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: thats why then
[13:32] <cfhowlett> Sp00n, see how that works?
[13:32] <Sp00n> mhm
[13:32] <Sp00n> so this tutorial is bogus
[13:33] <ikonia> once again, random instructions on the internet = fail
[13:33] <Sp00n> thats helpful :)
[13:33] <deepblue> the swap is not mounted, i wanna get it mounted automatically at startup
[13:33] <ikonia> it's the truth
[13:33] <Sp00n> maybe so
[13:33] <ikonia> Sp00n: you need to apply logic - any fool can write a web page, use trusted sources
[13:33] <NeoKarna> SANDU123,  this is more detailed http://www.timmeredith.com/tutorials/windows-8-grub.php
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: it works, it just changes more than the idiot who wrote it thinks
[13:33] <Sp00n> quite
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: then people run it and break their OS
[13:34] <ubuntu_user> SANDU123, no, that's not what i mean. I mean to say where does minimized apps go in unity?
[13:34] <cfhowlett> Sp00n, and don't think that the guy who wrote the tutorial would update it to keep it current ...
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: one reason to avoid 3rd party packages, yet every other guides says 'hey add this ppa'
[13:34] <Sp00n> hindsight, a wonderful thing
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: indeed
[13:35] <jarco> for some reason after the cleaning lady's are done my resolution of my second screen has changed to 1600x 1200 from 1920x1080 and I cant set it back. The option dissapeared. How to get my screen back to the correct resolution?
[13:35] <ikonia> Sp00n: I suspect you'll be more cautious in future though, so lesson learnt, everyone screw things up from time to time
[13:35] <cfhowlett> jarco, get a new cleaning lady
[13:35] <ubuntu_user> In xchat too, when i click on "Minimize to tray", i can't access xchat.
[13:35] <jarco> cfhowlett, boss pays for it . :)
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> Sp00n: could try booting install CD and upgrade that way. I'd just do a clean install of 12.04 to avoid issue
[13:36] <cfhowlett> jarco, lock your screen when away and password that puppy!
[13:36] <jarco> cfhowlett, i did. I expect this to be a result of a cable disconnect and reconnect
[13:37] <cfhowlett> jarco, ah.  I'd say reboot but I think there's a command line option to re-initialize the graphic settings
[13:37] <jarco> cfhowlett, rebooted twice. The resolution does not come back
[13:38] <jarco> the screen is also detected as unknown now
[13:38] <unknown101> my usb turned to read only
[13:38] <unknown101> i can't format it or to anything on it
[13:38] <unknown101> am really pissed of
[13:38] <unknown101> (gparted does nothing to it)
[13:38] <unknown101> HELPPPP
[13:39] <deepblue> the swap is not mounted, i wanna get it mounted automatically at startup
[13:40] <NeoKarna> jarco,  did you try resetting the resolution from appearance (Settings) ?
[13:40] <OerHeks> jarco, try to reset the 2nd monitor with its own reset button/menusetting
[13:40] <unknown101> neo its not working
[13:40] <jarco> OerHeks, own reset button doesnt even work :(
[13:41] <Nim23> How to install Wine for Ubuntu 12.4 ?
[13:41] <jarco> NeoKarna, tried from the settings in apearance and also in amdcccle
[13:41] <jarco> they both dont give the resolution
[13:41] <NeoKarna> Nim23,  sudo apt-get install wine
[13:42] <NeoKarna> jarco,  try this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution
[13:42] <howlymowly> hi poeple..  short question: I am trying to run a system from a usb stick in Virtualbox with ubuntu as host-OS. I used "VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename usbdisk.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sdb1"  command to get access to the USB image but I always get this error:  http://pastebin.com/4EvMWehU
[13:43] <Nim23> NeoKarna: Ok will try it... can you send any infomaton page details of wine ?
[13:43] <NeoKarna> Nim23,  what do you mean ?
[13:43] <Nim23> NeoKarna: Wine Documents Or User Guide pdf ?
[13:44] <OerHeks> !wine
[13:44] <ihre> !help
[13:45] <StarFlower> where is the folder I need to move my wallpapers to, so that ubuntu sees them when I try to change my background
[13:45] <NeoKarna> Nim23,  http://wiki.winehq.org/
[13:46] <NeoKarna> Nim23,  this one is probably better https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine
[13:48] <jarco> The actual problem seems to be that my screen isnt detected correctly
[13:51] <NeoKarna> jarco,  the link I gave you didn't solve your problem ?
[13:51] <jarco> NeoKarna, there is a lot of stuff in there. Trying with randr now :)
[13:51] <jarco> problem is that I am at work and the boss is getting impatient ...
[13:51] <NeoKarna> jarco,  I see  ;)
[13:52] <mantys89> Is there any good and free VPN service for ubuntu?
[13:52] <powersurge> so I removed system vim and compiled my own so that I can use YouCompleteMe, but now on each update ubuntu tries to reinstall vim and claims it's a system level problem when I tell it not to. Any idea on how to get that to stop?
[13:53] <NeoKarna> jarco,  look at this heading in the link "Setting resolution changes in xorg.conf -- resolution lower than expected"
[13:53] <cfhowlett> mantys89, where are you?
[13:54] <jarco> NeoKarna, doing that now thanks
[13:54] <NeoKarna> jarco,  here's the link of that part https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Setting_resolution_changes_in_xorg.conf_--_resolution_lower_than_expected
[13:55] <yoojin> Python, anyone?
[13:55] <cfhowlett> !ypthon|yoojin,

[13:55] <yoojin> cfhowlett: http://pastebin.com/BRj9DYZS
[13:56] <yoojin> cfhowlett: why first if statement give syntax error on colon in idle?
[13:56] <jarco> NeoKarna, trying it now relogging :)
[13:56] <cfhowlett> yoojin, this is ubuntu.  python support is over in #python.
[13:57] <yoojin> cfhowlett, thank you, did channel search and didn't get that python channel listed.
[13:57] <cfhowlett> !python

[13:57] <mantys89> jarco, what is your problem with screen resoliution?
[13:58] <bloopletech> also jarco, display setup, which graphics card do you have (amd/nvidia/intel), and which driver stack are you using?
[13:58] <SANDU123> hi, boot grub doesn't appears in my system.but i have win8 and ubuntu 12.04 in my pc. it loads win8 when i set boot list option is UEFI, but loads ubuntu when i set it to Legacy....
[13:58] <jarco> well. after something the cleaning lady did my screen is not recodnised anymore  (right screen of dual monitor) and the resolution maximum changed to 1600x1200 instead of 1920x1080 (wich i just so happen to need to show the bos seomthing on)
[13:58] <SANDU123> plz help
[13:59] <jarco> bloopletech, i have amd card
[13:59] <bloopletech> jarco, do you know if you are using the proprietry fglrx driver or the open source radeon driver?
[13:59] <mantys89> try xrand, screen resoliution settings saved in ./config/monitors.xml
[14:00] <omg_scout> SANDU123: do you have ubuntu 64?
[14:00] <helmut_> hi
[14:00] <jarco> driver is= amd proprietary fglrx graphics driver
[14:00] <SANDU123> nope
[14:00] <omg_scout> you need ubuntu 64 to work on uefi afaic
[14:01] <jmgk> hi all
[14:01] <bloopletech> jarco, ok, from memory amd provides a GUI control panel; one of the panes in that has a 'detect displays' button I believe
[14:01] <jmgk> Does Ubuntu support Haswell
[14:01] <omg_scout> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[14:01] <jmgk> Im getting a laptop with HAswell processor
[14:01] <omg_scout> I have Haswell cpu
[14:01] <omg_scout> and it works
[14:01] <jarco> bloopletech, this is correct its amdcccle
[14:01] <bloopletech> jarco, and it's showing the display with the wrong resolution in amdcccle?
[14:02] <SANDU123> omg_scout,let me try
[14:02] <jarco> yes
[14:02] <jarco> bloopletech, yes
[14:02] <jmgk> So it will support Haswell?
[14:02] <omg_scout> jmgk: Only issue I found was some graphic display on Crusader Kings 2
[14:02] <SANDU123> omg_scout, thnx in advance
[14:02] <jmgk> oh
[14:02] <omg_scout> But still not sure if it is game problem or driver
[14:02] <jmgk> Im getting a graphics card too
[14:02] <jmgk> erm
[14:02] <jmgk> a gtx 770
[14:02] <jmgk> IS that supported?
[14:02] <FloodBot1> jmgk: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:02] <bloopletech> jarco, is there a button or whatever to try and detect the displays again?
[14:02] <jmgk> is a very good card
[14:02] <jmgk> NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M
[14:03] <bloopletech> jarco, also, are the displays mirrored?
[14:03] <jmgk> sorry
[14:03] <jmgk> anyways is that card good?
[14:03] <omg_scout> jmgk: Don't know, never had NVIDIA. Anyway, haswell CPU  works
[14:03] <jmgk> oh
[14:04] <jmgk> Do you use a laptop omg_scout ?
[14:04] <mantys89> jarco, what is your output from xrandr?
[14:04] <jarco> bloopletech, not mirrored, detecting the displays ion amdcccle does not help
[14:04] <bloopletech> jmgk, it should be supported by the proprietry nvidia drivers, if not in the open source noveau drivers
[14:04] <jmgk> ah ok
[14:04] <jmgk> :)
[14:04] <jmgk> thanks
[14:04] <jarco> its perhaps related that this is connected with the blue (vga) cable with a piece to convert from dvi?
[14:04] <bloopletech> jarco, is that how it's always been hooked up?
[14:04] <jarco> bloopletech, yup.
[14:05] <jarco> sorry, that means yes :)
[14:05] <keeb> not really an OS question, but maybe you guys can help me.. i just got the Dell XPS 13 and I am trying to hook it up at a 27" apple display. it works great at low resolution (1280x720) but at the higher resolution it looks like the old tv monochrome artifacts
[14:05] <bloopletech> then if it was working before, that shouln't change anything
[14:05] <jarco> ok
[14:05] <jarco> relogging for hail mary attemt
[14:05] <bloopletech> can you run xrandr as mantys89 asked and pastie the output?
[14:06] <bloopletech> keeb, how are you connecting the laptop to the apple display?
[14:06] <keeb> bloopletech: mini-display port or w/e
[14:06] <keeb> http://pastie.org/8351775
[14:07] <bloopletech> keeb, well it's certainly detected the higher resolution... can you describe more exactly the visual artefacts you're seeing?
[14:07] <OerHeks> keeb do you have your adapter attached, or running on battery?
[14:08] <keeb> OerHeks: adapter
[14:08] <keeb> bloopletech: remember in the 80s/90s what it was like to turn your tv on without a signal/coax plugged in?
[14:08] <zatan> hey how can I copy to clipboard form example I want "pwd > clipboard" ?
[14:08] <keeb> it looks like that, but with some window elements
[14:08] <bloopletech> keeb: honestly, I'm a bit young for that... but do you mean like picture snow?
[14:09] <keeb> sure :]
[14:09] <bloopletech> hmm what's the GPU?
[14:09] <Pici> zatan: iirc: pwd | xclip -selection clipboard
[14:09] <zatan> Pici, cheers
[14:10] <keeb> bloopletech: i've seen on the web people are powering 2 of these things with stock ubuntu, so it doesn't appear to be a gpu limitation (which is a Intel 400)
[14:11] <keeb> hm maybe not
[14:11] <keeb> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)
[14:11] <bloopletech> keeb sure... you mean a hd graphics 4000?
[14:11] <bloopletech> it's probably easier to put the model number off the bottom into google, that usually gets you the exact gpu
[14:11] <bloopletech> or in this case, cpu
[14:12] <dcope> hi all, i'm trying to figure out why df -h is reporting that 100% space is used
[14:13] <dcope> i've installed `ncdu` and when i run it from / it looks like not much space at all is used
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> dcope: do you have old unused kernels?
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> dcope: also try:   df -i
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> dcope: you may be out of inodes
[14:13] <faugusztin> keeb: as usual, i would try to rule out hardware issue first... that means try it with a different cable/computer if possible
[14:13] <bloopletech> dcope, also, is the 100% used on the / partition?
[14:14] <dcope> ActionParsnip: df -i shows a lot less space used
[14:14] <OerHeks>  lshw -C video | grep product
[14:14] <dcope> bloopletech: yep, /dev/xvda        48G   45G   51M 100% /
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> dcope: thats good, then try uninstalling unused kernels as well as run:   sudo apt-get clean
[14:14] <keeb> bloopletech: maybe it's a max resolution thing of the card, i'm gonna try turning off lvds1 and see if that helps
[14:15] <faugusztin> keeb: displayport = 2560x1600 with all intel adapters
[14:15] <jarco> Hail mary extremly unsuccsesfull
[14:15] <jarco> had te remove xorg.conf and monitors.xml
[14:15] <keeb> faugusztin: yeah this monitor+the other monitor > 2560x1600
[14:16] <faugusztin> keeb: but you are running them from different ports :)
[14:16] <keeb> well, worth a shot i guess
[14:16] <faugusztin> i was talking about bandwidth limitation of the displayport interface
[14:16] <dcope> ActionParsnip: ok, just can sudo apt-get clean and it's still showing 100% usage
[14:16] <syaelendra> hi
[14:17] <bloopletech> dcope, this on a desktop or a server (headless)?
[14:17] <dcope> bloopletech: a headless server (vps on linode)
[14:17] <bloopletech> dcope, ah, I was going to suggest using the graphical disk usage analyzer
[14:17] <dcope> my monitoring software starting generating notifications out of the blue that the disk space was full
[14:18] <bloopletech> how big is /var/log?
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> dcope: does the host system have free space?
[14:18] <keeb> faugusztin: looks like i was right
[14:18] <keeb> now it's working fine.
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> dcope: have you tried a reboot?
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> dcope: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1117947
[14:18] <dcope>  /var/log is 760mb
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> dcope: could clear that down
[14:19] <bloopletech> hmm, try just du -ch --max-depth=3 / > ~/bigfiles
[14:20] <faugusztin> keeb: in that case i would check how much memory did you allocate to the iGPU, but i doub't it helps. maybe some strange dell design decision
[14:20] <keeb> faugusztin: is that in the bios?
[14:20] <faugusztin> keeb: usually yes
[14:20] <dcope> ActionParsnip: is it safe to delete everything in /var/log?
[14:20] <keeb> ok i'll take a look
[14:20] <workmaster2n> Is there a was to tell an init.d script to run as a user other than root?
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> dcope: don't delete, just empty the files you no longer need
[14:21] <bloopletech> brb
[14:21] <dcope> bloopletech: du -ch just shows pretty small files
[14:23] <hugok> is there anyway to get ubuntu to display full native resolutoin on a integrated graphics?
[14:23] <hugok> I believe the resolution was 4:3 1200*900
[14:25] <ihre> dcope: I'm experiencing the same kinds of problems: http://dpaste.com/1394441/
[14:26] <ihre> I had to run e2fsck on var before it was normal again, yet the problem hasnt resolved yet ..
[14:27] <guns> I'd like to replace dnsmasq-base with my own compiled version available in /usr/local; however, networkmanager lists dnsmasq-base as a dep
[14:27] <dcope> ihre: interesting.... on linode?
[14:27] <andornaut> I recently performed a dist-upgrade and now startx fails. I've tested without a window manager (.xinitrc has one line: xterm). Any ideas?
[14:27] <guns> is there a way to use my ownb dnsmasq without uninstall networkmanager?
[14:28] <ihre> dcope: nope, this is on my nas @ home
[14:28] <ihre> dcope: yet its seems to be the same kind of problem, havent found out why, or a solution yet
[14:31] <JoBArTe_Skuld> hey guys
[14:32] <JoBArTe_Skuld> its possible to change a home user folder from encrypted to uncrypted?
[14:32] <hazamonzo> hey folks. I've enabled my multiverse sources in /etc/apt/sources/list and run an sudo apt-get update with no problems. Still canoot see the oracle JRE or JDK though
[14:32] <hazamonzo> Any thoughts?
[14:33] <fahadash> I have a distro specific question having to do with external storage devices
[14:34] <fahadash> Does every USB Storage device I plug into gets mounted to a folder automatically?
[14:34] <alanhoff> Hello there
[14:34] <OerHeks> hazamonzo, oracle JDK/JRE are not in the repos.
[14:35] <OerHeks> !java
[14:35] <fahadash> !usb

[14:35] <fahadash> !mount
[14:35] <z3r0c00k> hi, does somebody know if it is possible to install GRUB2 EFI and the normal GRUB2 for BIOS at the same time, so it can boot in both modes?
[14:36] <jarco> Well all. I managed to recover a little
[14:36] <jarco> Screen is still "unknown" but at least I see something again :)
[14:37] <c4leb> hello all ! i got a /partition with all right on it and some directories embedded...i' m trying to mount it with all the directories inside (the hidded ones also) but i failed each time..."mount -l" does not help me...is there a way to make it ? or to mkdor directories on a mounted partition?
[14:37] <hazamonzo> OerHeks: Cheers mate
[14:40] <c4leb> any help guys ?!
[14:40] <z3r0c00k> @c4leb: i don't understand exactly what you want to achieve? Do you want the folders which are urrently in /partition to be there if you mount another partiton on /partition?
[14:41] <MonkeyDust> c4leb  mkdir [some easy name]; sudo mount /dev/blah [that name]
[14:41] <keeb> faugusztin: somehow now it's *just working*
[14:41] <keeb> so confused, but not going to jinx it
[14:46] <keeb> the only change is i just typed `xrandr --output DP1 --auto`
[14:47] <MonkeyDust> c4leb  keep it in the channel please
[14:50] <AnonN-1> hi
[14:51] <SuperLag> With the XFCE variant, I could put the "take screenshot" icon in my top panel... what does Unity call that? "Menu Bar"? How do I get the screenshot to stay up there, so I don't have to use the launcher to type it in every time?
[14:52] <SuperLag> So I don't have to use HUD every time, that is
[14:52] <MonkeyDust> SuperLag  use shutter, it puts an icon in your menu bar
[14:53] <SuperLag> MonkeyDust: does it have the same features as the stock app? i.e. gives you the choice between selecting an area or the whole window
[14:54] <SuperLag> whoa... that installs 47 other packages
[14:56] <SuperLag> hazamonzo: this is a complex, multi-step answer :)
[14:56] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: Im sorry?
[14:56] <Freeaqingme> Hi. I upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04, but when booting the 3.8 kernel I have no usb keyboard support to enter my cryptsetup password. UEFI and Grub do accept keyboard input though. How could I fix that?
[14:57] <MonkeyDust> SuperLag  it has a lot more options
[14:57] <SuperLag> hazamonzo: the Oracle Java question. I use it, as I do support for a Java-based app... and have the Oracle stuff installed. Doing that, and getting it to be the default Java, it's a little complicated.
[14:57] <ArielX> people i'm back... told you I was downloading ubuntu.. so here I am now
[14:58] <SuperLag> ArielX: soooo... install it? :D
[14:58] <ArielX> yeah... after I had a long day trying to fix KALI desktop issues...
[14:59] <ArielX> thanks to you all....
[14:59] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: In this case it was simple enough. No default openJDK or what not was installed, So after installing oracle JDK7, it was set to default. All is well in the world
[14:59] <SuperLag> hazamonzo: Okay, but you had to install the JDK from source, right?
[14:59] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: The installer worked in this case
[15:00] <SuperLag> hazamonzo: what installer?
[15:00] <SuperLag> hazamonzo: there is none, by default... in newer versions of Ubuntu
[15:00] <mantys89> http://www.noobslab.com/2012/12/install-oracle-java-7-in-ubuntu.html
[15:01] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: I just used the installer from ppa:webupd8team/java
[15:01] <SuperLag> ah, okay... PPA
[15:01] <SuperLag> different story
[15:01] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: I like to keep it simple where possible. But cheers! :D
[15:01] <SuperLag> I used the stock tarball from Oracle, and then set it with update-alternatives
[15:02] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: Yeah, that sounds familiar with older version of ubuntu i've had to install java onto
[15:02] <SuperLag> hazamonzo: actually, the last LTS has an oracle installer *in* the main repo
[15:03] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: hmmm, im using some default 13.04 amazon AMI. Maybe its not LTS?
[15:03] <mantys89> 12.04 is LTS
[15:03] <SuperLag> hazamonzo: definitely not. The most current LTS is 12.04
[15:03] <hazamonzo> SuperLag: oKAY. gOOD TO KNOW :)
[15:03] <hazamonzo> sorry, caps

[15:15] <ihre> dcope: I've been told this problem has to do with unlinked inodes, thats all I've been able to discover :(

[15:28] <mantys89> A1Recon you have dependencies problem or some of yor installed apps conflict
[15:28] <SuperLag> mantys89: you might be right... but without seeing output, you're still guessing :)
[15:28] <A1Recon> SuperLag: My cousin opened up the PC and logged into Windows. And god only know what he did after that.
[15:28] <mantys89> try sudo apt-get install -f
[15:29] <SuperLag> A1Recon: so what? You're asking a Linux question, and I'd like to help you with your Linux problem. So help me (or us) help you... and answer the questions we ask you.
[15:29] <SuperLag> A1Recon: if that means you have to reboot... then reboot, and then come back with more data ;)

[15:34] <TJ-> dcope: ihre: a process that is still running still has file-descriptors attached to files it has unlinked (deleted) which will continue taking up space until that process terminates. You can locate likely candidates using "find /proc/*/fd/* -type l -ls | egrep '\->.*\(deleted\)'"
[15:34] <pysc1c04n0ny> na~entend
[15:34] <SuperLag> I give  up.
[15:34] <SuperLag> For now.
[15:35] <A1Recon> mantys89: SuperLag: and then I restarted and the Ubuntu loading screen came up and it showed "Press  Enter to check for disk errors, .... S to mount and M to manual troubleshoot(or something)"....
[15:35] <A1Recon> mantys89: Dependencies problem??
[15:35] <SuperLag> A1Recon: Okay. If you have drive errors, all bets are off. :)

[15:39] <skinux> Oh, that is what you meant.

[15:54] <rosco_y> Does anyone know why my HP Device Manager - Plug-in installer reinstalls the Plug-in every time I restart to my computer?
[15:56] <hadifarnoud> I have ubuntu 12.10 but cant even boot because default kernel is 64bit. is there any boot option I can use for 32bit?
[15:56] <Ari-Yang> no..
[15:57] <OerHeks> hadifarnoud, if your cpu was not 32 bit, you could not install ubuntu
[15:57] <OerHeks> + 64 bit
[15:57] <ObrienDave> hadifarnoud... is your computer 64bit?
[15:57] <TJ-> hadifarnoud: Installing a 32-bit kernel would only help you if the currently-installed OS is the 32-bit version; otherwise, you need to install a complete 32-bit release.
[15:57] <Ari-Yang> hadifarnoud, why didn't you make sure you needed a 32bit?
[15:57] <hadifarnoud> no ObrienDave
[15:58] <TJ-> hadifarnoud: Did the OS get installed on another computer and then the storage device moved to the current CPU?
[15:58] <ObrienDave> then DL and install the COMPLETE 32 bit system
[15:58] <hadifarnoud> Ari-Yang: I had this ubuntu for long time. didn't download it for this pc
[15:58] <hadifarnoud> TJ-: its clean install I want to do via DVD
[15:58] <SuperLag> MonkeyDust: Dude. Shutter is *awesome*. After I realized that nearly all of those 47 packages it wanted to install were libraries... I stopped worrying. Thank you for the recommendation.
[15:58] <TJ-> hadifarnoud: Then choose the installer package that matches the CPU's architecture (i386 for 32-bit)
[15:59] <hadifarnoud> ubuntu used to be 32bit and 64bit on one DVD
[15:59] <hadifarnoud> TJ-: I cant even boot from DVD
[15:59] <A1Recon> mantys89 http://i.imgur.com/87Oytoe.png http://i.imgur.com/26Dtv9k.png These are the errors that I get.....
[15:59] <SuperLag> I don't even grab the 32-bit installs, unless the machine it's going on has less than <=4GB of phyiscal RAM
[15:59] <SuperLag> 64-bit forever, baby!
[15:59] <ObrienDave> hadifarnoud... it isn't anymore. 32 and 64 bit are separate
[15:59] <A1Recon> mantys89 after I restart the PC now
[16:00] <emx> is there a package that deploys code in a svn repository?
[16:00] <hadifarnoud> SuperLag: its an old pc, hence installing linux
[16:00] <Ari-Yang> hadifarnoud, well if you do end up needing to re-install, I recommend either installing 12.04 LTS or 13.04... up to you, do you want to update like every few months or stick to a version that will be supported for a long time...
[16:00] <zykotick9> hadifarnoud: i don't remember ubuntu ever having a 32/64bit installer...
[16:00] <A1Recon> SuperLag:  http://i.imgur.com/87Oytoe.png http://i.imgur.com/26Dtv9k.png  These are the errors that I get .... Any ideas??
[16:00] <hadifarnoud> zykotick9: you're not old enough then :D
[16:01] <SuperLag> A1Recon: those are just application errors. Enter your password and submit the bug reports.
[16:01] <A1Recon> SuperLag: I did...
[16:01] <zykotick9> hadifarnoud: actually, i believe you are mistaken... but maybe not?
[16:01] <hadifarnoud> zykotick9: maybe
[16:01] <mantys89> A1Recon: evolution client is working at these moment?
[16:01] <rosco_y> Does anyone know why my HP Device Manager - Plug-in installer reinstalls the Plug-in every time I restart to my computer?
[16:02] <hadifarnoud> I think ubuntu 4 or 5 was dual support. back then ubuntu was sending CDs for free. because it was just one cd they were sending? dont know for sure
[16:02] <mrrcp> hey anyone having issues with libreoffice 4.1 not working properly with the launcher?
[16:02] <A1Recon> mantys89: Ummm. what is evolution??
[16:02] <mrrcp> in ubuntu 12.04
[16:02] <A1Recon> client??
[16:02] <ObrienDave> rosco_y... try going to sessions and startup. save current session
[16:02] <SuperLag> omg
[16:02] <rosco_y> ObrienDave: ty, I'll try that :0
[16:02] <rosco_y> :), even
[16:02] <SuperLag> A1Recon: do you know what a mail client is?
[16:02] <TJ-> hadifarnoud: No, they weren't. The 32-bit and 64-bit ISOs were separate
[16:03] <mantys89> A1Recon: you cant reinstall evoliution or disable crash reports. (evolution is mail client)
[16:03] <A1Recon> SuperLag: yes... But I use Mozilla Firefox.
[16:03] <hadifarnoud> ok then TJ-. looks like I'm wrong
[16:03] <mantys89> A1Recon: you can reinstall evoliution or disable crash reports. (evolution is mail client)
[16:03] <A1Recon> oops Mozilla Thunderbird
[16:04] <TJ-> hadifarnoud: There may have been a special-case installer - I do vaguely recall something - but don't think it was general release, and just having checked old-releases.ubuntu.com there is no sign of it. Anyhow, you need the 32-bit installer to solve your issue :)
[16:04] <hadifarnoud> :) thanks
[16:05] <Maple__> Hey - how would I go about creating a btrfs partition using ubiquity?
[16:06] <A1Recon> mantys89: Since the problem is with Evolution.... do you think there's a chance that the problem be solved if I reinstall Evolution... BTW how do I reinstall Evolution?
[16:06] <ObrienDave> Maple__... use Gparted??? ;))
[16:06] <petersaints> Hi guys. How can I generate commands like the ones that psycocats has: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-ubuntu/ ?
[16:07] <mantys89> A1Recon: sudo apt-get install --reinstall package
[16:07] <mantys89> A1Recon: sudo apt-get install --reinstall package
[16:08] <localg0d> hello
[16:08] <wilee-nilee> petersaints, Do you mean package lists of a specific install?
[16:09] <petersaints> wilee-nilee: well yeah. Basically removing all packages that a meta-package such as kubuntu-desktop, lubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop, etc. install.
[16:09] <A1Recon> mantys89: in place of "package" I type in "evolution" right??
[16:09] <localg0d> My computer that has ubuntu installed does not have access to the web, and it will not let me click the INSTALL button on any of my packages I downloaded to this usb drive ? can someone please help me ?
[16:09] <ObrienDave> A1Recon... yes
[16:09] <mantys89> A1Recon: yes
[16:09] <foist> For some reason when I try to ssh into my server (using the same command I always have), I get `Warning: Identity file not accessible: No such file or directory.` I'm using `ssh -i ~/.ssh/x.pem ubuntu@55.555.555.555` Not entirely an ubuntu issue, but hoping someone can help.
[16:09] <wilee-nilee> petersaints, the main psychocats website has these for all releases, with the page you have included
[16:10] <wilee-nilee> petersaints, I have to take off so maybe another can address this.
[16:10] <TJ-> A1Recon: It is likely the Calender in evolution fails due to some bad data, so reinstalling the executables is unlikely to help. The first thing I'd recommend is creating a fresh user profile, log-in to it, and test Evolution there. If it doesn't crash doing similar activities as in your primary profile that is a pretty good indication the problem is caused by your primary profile's Evolution configuration and/or user data
[16:10] <petersaints> i know... but I wanted to know how to generate this kind of commands. Out of curiosity and because I'm saucy and psycocats has commands just up to raring
[16:11] <TJ-> foist: Have you checked that "~/.ssh/x.pem" exists and has correct permissions?
[16:11] <foist> Yes.
[16:11] <rosco_y> ObrienDave: Where do I find the "sessions and startup?"  (I thought I'd be able to find it, but I'm not having any luck)
[16:11] <wilee-nilee> petersaints, after releases ubuntu has a full install list of OS's so one I assume would have to just work through those, not a beginners job I would think.
[16:11] <foist> `chmod 0600 ~/.ssh/x.pen`
[16:12] <foist> s/pen/pem/
[16:12] <localg0d> Is there a way to force an install of a .deb package in ubuntu if your computer does not have access to the internet? I have to download every single deb file at school and put them on the computer at home . Please help !
[16:12] <TJ-> foist: Start ssh with the "-vvv" option and check the debug output it generates for more clues
[16:12] <ObrienDave> rosco_y... somewhere in settings, I use Xubuntu.
[16:12] <SuperLag> localg0d: unless you have all of the dependencies that package needs on your system *already*, no
[16:12] <OerHeks> localg0d, sudo dpkg -i <package>.deb
[16:13] <rosco_y> ObrienDave: ty, it sure seems like I've seen it somewhere.....
[16:13] <foist> TJ-: `ssh -vvv -i … ` doesn't do anything different.
[16:13] <localg0d> SuperLag and OerHeks . I downloaded packages that have satisfied dependencies
[16:13] <localg0d> for some reason it will not allow me to click the INSTALL button
[16:13] <TJ-> foist: It should be outputting a LOT of debug info on what it is doing
[16:13] <raykrueger> q
[16:13] <SuperLag> localg0d: where did you download them to?
[16:13] <wafflej0ck> localg0d, have you tried with dpkg instead of the installer
[16:13] <localg0d> SuperLag , is there any other solutions ? just in case sudo -dpkg <filesname>.deb doesn't work ?
[16:13] <OerHeks> localg0d, then the package is not suitable for your system
[16:13] <wafflej0ck> dpkg -i
[16:14] <wafflej0ck> sudo dpkg -i some.deb
[16:14] <skinux> Is installation of Pylons from repository different from instructions at http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pylons-webframework/en/latest/gettingstarted.html#installing
[16:14] <skinux> ?
[16:14] <day> i installed google earth via dpkg -i: apt-get -f install. how can i make it launchable via console?
[16:14] <localg0d> Ok ... thanks oerheks and thanks for the dpkg info .. it's been a bout 1.5 yrs since i had access to a computer
[16:15] <rosco_y> ObrienDave: Actually I found the HP Device Manager Plug-in Installer in my "Startup Application"....maybe that had something to do with it....?
[16:15] <localg0d> i lost everything on my system and am starting from scratch ..
[16:15] <jonascj> Hi all. Can someone recommend me a music player, possibly plugins and ubuntu (gnome?) specific settings needed to setup global hotkeys? I am looking to replicate WinAmp from Windows.
[16:15] <mantys89> day: you need create link to binary package
[16:15] <ObrienDave> O.o
[16:15] <ObrienDave> o.O
[16:15] <SuperLag> day: find the .desktop file it uses, and see what the Exec= line is. Then launch that binary.
[16:15] <wafflej0ck> jonascj, I use pithos to patch me into Pandora mostly
[16:15] <ObrienDave> rosco_y... yep, that should help ;)
[16:15] <SuperLag> mantys89: if day installed it with dpkg, the binary is already there. He just needs to call it properly.
[16:15] <zamba> should swap be on a lvm?
[16:16] <zamba> is it recommended?
[16:16] <Pici> skinux: The pylons instructions will install pylons into its own virtualenv, which would be different than installing from the repos.  In this case, I'd probably use the pylons method.
[16:16] <localg0d> Ok OerHeks , one other question .. How do I install/compile vlc from the zip I downloaded on their site ... I forgot the correct string for cli-promt .. is it ./confuigure make make install ? I can't remember the darn procedure :-(
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> zamba: sounds fine to me
[16:16] <mantys89> sometimes it doesnt create link to /usr/bin
[16:16] <jonascj> wafflej0ck: I'll keep that in mind if I fail to get my on disk music collection to function as nicely as it does in Winamp :)
[16:16] <skinux> So, you recommend NOT installing from repository? (Hmm. I already installed from repo :( )
[16:16] <Pici> skinux: You just need to understand that it is installing it into a virtualenv
[16:16] <TJ-> day: locate the executable start file, and call it. You may identify it using "dpkg-query -L google-earth" if you don't know which it is already. I think you'll find it's "/opt/google/earth/free/googleearth"
[16:17] <wafflej0ck> jonascj, Amarok and RhythmBox are popular
[16:17] <rosco_y> ObrienDave: thanks for sure.
[16:17] <ObrienDave> rosco_y... not a problem
[16:17] <jonascj> wafflej0ck: I know, I just haven't figured out how to setup global hotkeys. Maybe I'll give it another try
[16:17] <wafflej0ck> jonascj, I kinda prefer XMBC myself for streaming stuff from the NAS etc.
[16:18] <TJ-> zamba: It won't affect things. Many systems have swap as an encrypted LV
[16:18] <Pici> skinux: It may not be as up to date as the code that is provided directly from pylons.
[16:18] <zamba> TJ-: ok
[16:18] <wafflej0ck> jonascj, yeah not sure about the global hotkeys myself
[16:18] <localg0d> Also .. on http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/synaptic do the i386 and 64x debs include the dependencies ? or is there a general dependencies packages i can download ?
[16:18] <TJ-> zamba: Only time it needs to be a raw partition is if you are able to use hibernation
[16:18] <day> TJ-: trying quite hard to find it ":P
[16:18] <skinux> Okay. I'll follow Pylons instructions then. Thanks.
[16:18] <ObrienDave> jonascj... try Guayadeque
[16:18] <skinux> Makes me curious why repo isn't kept up to date with official release.
[16:19] <Pici> skinux: Because we are not a rolling release.
[16:19] <wafflej0ck> localg0d, do you have a smart phone? is it Android? do you have a data plan, is it unlimited? get FoxFi and wifi tether your phone if the answers are all yes
[16:19] <rosco_y> jonascj: I think Winamp is really nice, and I looked for a linux equivalent for awhile, and never really found one.  I'm using Rythmbox right now becuase it has most of the features I was looking for.
[16:19] <Ari-Yang> localg0d, you should ask in VLC's channel... anywho if there is a configure file then run it in the order you said... ./configure make then make install. if ./configure doesn't work and you see a autogen.sh then run ./autogen.sh make and make install
[16:20] <zamba> i may need some hand-holding.. i'm replacing my existing hard drive with a new one.. so i need to copy all data from /dev/sda to /dev/sdc and then /dev/sdc should become the new /dev/sda.. what do i need to keep in mind here?
[16:20] <day> TJ-: hmm im not even sure it installed properly.. a locate *googleearth* nets me nothing
[16:20] <skinux> Also, does Ubuntu use Backspace as a hotkey? Chrome browser is supposed to support using Backspace to navigate to previous page, but Backspace key seems to do nothing.
[16:20] <jonascj> ObrienDave: Thanks, I'll check it out
[16:20] <sh_> Hi all. please help me for recording problem. Audio sound is too small also I set max for recording :(
[16:20] <zamba> TJ-: can /boot be a LVM? i guess not, no?
[16:20] <jonascj> rosco_y: yeah, winamp is the best music player I've ever tried. Rhytmbox seems okay, I just miss those global hot keys.
[16:21] <Sheila> can i install "Kloxo" on ubuntu
[16:21] <mantys89> day: In terminal type ->> which google  hit tab and enter. If you have several packages with similar names they will shown in console
[16:21] <ObrienDave> sh_... try Audacity. you can amplify the audio files
[16:21] <wafflej0ck> localg0d, if you don't have a wifi adapter in the PC you can use PDANet which will bluetooth tether, get yourself some internets it will help a lot unless you have security concerns or it's an academic exercise
[16:21] <day> mantys89: hmm a 'which google' gives me zero output
[16:21] <TJ-> day: Try "apt-cache policy google-earth-stable"
[16:21] <rosco_y> jonascj: I miss the volume keys, but the pause/play/next/prev buttons work for me.
[16:22] <day> TJ-: installed none. version table 7.1.1. blababla...ive no clue what he did with the 200mb apt-get downloaded during the install...
[16:22] <TJ-> day: Now see if it is installed directly, "dpkg-query -l 'google-earth*'"
[16:23] <rosco_y> jonascj: I think all the global keys would work in the right configuration / hardware + software / but it might be a little tricky to hit the nail square on the head
[16:23] <sh_> ObrienDave: It seem only record when I scream. When I speak normal I get nothing :(
[16:23] <wafflej0ck> zamba, I suggest checking out clonezilla maybe, if you're feeling cautious or nervous about copying partitions or drives it can be very helpful, it goes disk->image and image->disk and can deal with NAS if needed etc. basically it uses dd to block wise copy
[16:23] <localg0d> Does anyone know of a program that will allow me to download all dependency files and the install file for a program I want to download without having to download every single dependency ?
[16:23] <mantys89> day: check /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin for google earch executables
[16:23] <sh_> Everyone help me please
[16:23] <zamba> wafflej0ck: i'm shrinking the disks
[16:24] <day> TJ-: y theres something
[16:24] <mehdi> Hi people
[16:24] <mantys89> day: check /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin folders for google earch executables
[16:24] <TJ-> day: The first two characters on the line tell you the state of the package. "ii" means fully installed
[16:24] <jonascj> rosco_y: You are probably right. I'm looking for [ctrl]+[alt]+[up/down] for volume, [ctrl]+[alt]+[page up/down] for changing songs etc. (like Winamp). I guess just the music player needs the ability to listen for key combinations. It's not something supported or not supported by the OS. It must be the player alone
[16:25] <wafflej0ck> zamba, ah k not sure that it will really help you there but it might, I'm only familiar with using DD to copy data in it's "current configuration" so to speak then resizing, not sure about shrinking the img or how that would work out sorry
[16:25] <day> TJ-: ive go a 'rc'
[16:25] <mehdi> i need to read from ttyS0 but no luck :/ any help ??
[16:25] <TJ-> day: That means "removed", "config" files remain
[16:25] <day> TJ-: o0 ive no clue what im doing :P
[16:25] <TJ-> day: You'll need to re-install it :)
[16:25] <day> i reinstall
[16:25] <localg0d> Does anyone know of a program that will allow me to download all dependency files and the install file for a program I want to download without having to download every single dependency ? Please ?
[16:26] <TJ-> localg0d: apt-get !
[16:26] <wafflej0ck> TJ-, +1 or yum
[16:26] <mehdi> localg0d, you should use pat-get
[16:26] <TJ-> I prefer using choccie-get :p
[16:26] <meimyself> anyone know how to permanently change the default left-right balance for the sound?
[16:26] <zykotick9> mehdi: i assume that's a serial connection?  you might need to be in the dialout group.
[16:26] <meimyself> every time i reboot or the sound goes to 0% it resets to 50 50
[16:27] <mehdi> zykotick9, i did that already
[16:27] <zykotick9> mehdi: did you logout/back in?
[16:27] <mehdi> zykotick9, even restart the server :/
[16:28] <zykotick9> mehdi: well good luck, i got nothin'.
[16:28] <MoPac> localg0d: http://askubuntu.com/questions/324845/whats-the-difference-between-apt-get-install-and-apt-get-build-dep
[16:28] <mehdi> zykotick9, what i can't get is there is a code in VB from M$ that work
[16:28] <mehdi> zykotick9, it use on_Comm() !
[16:28] <TJ-> mehdi: Are you using a terminal program to connect to the serial port, or trying to do it on the raw device?
[16:29] <MoPac> Hi all. I'm not sure if there is a separate channel for beta versions anymore -- I have a Saucy upgrade in place question. Is there a common reason for the "could not calculate upgrade" fail? I'm encountering it but can't seem to figure details
[16:29] <zykotick9> !aptoncd | localg0d
[16:29] <mehdi> TJ-, i did try minicom, screen /dev/ttyS0 9600 and cat /dev/ttyS0 ... NO LUCK !
[16:29] <wafflej0ck> zykotick9, nice one
[16:30] <zykotick9> MoPac: #ubuntu+1 for pre-release/development versions
[16:30] <MoPac> zykotick9: thanks
[16:30] <TJ-> mehdi: OK, if you can get those to connect you know its good. Did you try those as superuser too? Usually the user needs to have "dialout" group membership
[16:30] <localg0d> umm does anyone know of a windows based apt-on-cd solution ? or something similiar ? i'm begging for help .. my school is a windows-nightmare and the house i live in doesn't have access to wifi or internet yet ... please
[16:31] <mehdi> TJ-, zykotick9, yep, i did add root to dialout and run theses program/command ...
[16:31] <zykotick9> mehdi: root to dialout, add the user you want to use (hopefully NOT root)
[16:31] <TJ-> mehdi: root doesn't need that membership, but other users would *if* /dev/ttyS0 has ownership root:dialout
[16:31] <mehdi> localg0d, what's the problem ? i did get what you need ??
[16:33] <mehdi> zykotick9, TJ- , well, my user have the right of group dialout
[16:33] <TJ-> mehdi: Maybe some other process already has the device opened?
[16:34] <localg0d> mehdi , I am trying to download my deb files and all their dependencies through windows . 1 by 1 . and thus i am searching for a solution that will do what package managers do when they find and download the dependencies for me .. so i dont' spend hours pressing clicking and saving files that would take maybe 5 minutes for a few hundred files
[16:34] <Pici> localg0d: Theres http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ , but it hasn't been updated to include the most recent releases...
[16:34] <mehdi> TJ-, i did a ps -aux | grep tty to make sure nothing in use
[16:35] <zykotick9> mehdi: sidenot, it's "ps aux" no -
[16:35] <mehdi> localg0d, why not install the virtualBox on windows, run linux in it OR use the live CD to get what package you need ??
[16:36] <localg0d> because i'm on a college computer and their pc's do not allow direct end user installs
[16:36] <mehdi> zykotick9, i got the same result what ever with - or not
[16:36] <zykotick9> mehdi: "warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'?" check the very top
[16:36] <wafflej0ck> localg0d, have you tried a liveCD or USB?
[16:36] <mehdi> localg0d, you will install nothing, just make you USB install persistant
[16:37] <mehdi> zykotick9, Linux pontBascule 3.2.0-52-generic #78-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 26 16:23:24 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[16:37] <localg0d> pici . ok .. that shows me the exact packages i will have to download as a minimum ? for the deb to work ?
[16:37] <Pici> localg0d: yes.
[16:37] <mehdi> localg0d, yep
[16:37] <mehdi> TJ-, any ideas ??
[16:38] <localg0d> Pici , I can't find wine and other programs like the games for that release by the general name . do i need to find out their package aka their deb file name ?
[16:39] <TJ-> mehdi: Do you get "permission denied" when trying to connect to the port, or some other message - if so, what message?
[16:40] <Pici> localg0d: I don't know, its not my website.
[16:41] <mehdi> TJ-, no, i got this link from a friend, i'm checking it : https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.os.linux.development.system/fXHq-ijPgIU
[16:41] <localg0d> Pici, last question . When I click that download button at the bottom .. How do I utilize that ? to automate a download ?
[16:41] <Maple__> Re: without gparted, that was
[16:43] <A1Recon> Something is very very very very wrong.... isn't it?
[16:43] <Pici> localg0d: I'm pretty sure that 'download' button is just to download the php source of the page.  YOu'd need to use some sort of download manager (or manually) to pull the packages that are listed after pressing find
[16:43] <A1Recon> http://i.imgur.com/i16Pi5T.png
[16:43] <A1Recon> mantys89 ^
[16:43] <A1Recon> :(
[16:43] <diibadaaba> Ahoy
[16:43] <localg0d> easily done .. thank you so much pici .. i missed you guys ;-) and girls ;)
[16:44] <diibadaaba> Nobody from Sverige?
[16:44] <MonkeyDust> !se
[16:44] <A1Recon> Pici: http://i.imgur.com/i16Pi5T.png Any ideas how I can solve this;??
[16:44] <Pici> A1Recon: Is the only time you've gotten this?
[16:45] <A1Recon> Pici: The last two times that I restarted it was just "evolution alarm". So yeah this is the first time.....
[16:47] <meimyself> anyone know how to permanently change the default left-right balance for the sound? whenever it gets muted or i reboot it defaults to 50%
[16:51] <Pici> A1Recon: Are you having any issues besides just seeing these alerts?
[16:52] <Uchiha> hi
[16:52] <Uchiha> i need help with my phone
[16:56] <A1Recon> Pici: My cousin opened up Win7 on my PC(Dual Boot) in my absence and when I started up the PC a few hours ago, I got the black terminal screen and just before that i got a list of errors.....Once the black terminal screen came up, I waited for a moment and then I restarted using the button on the CPU/Cabinet. Then the Ubuntu loading screen came up.....BUT it showed checking HDD for errors and then I got the errors. So right now the Graphics is brok
[16:56] <A1Recon> square/sharp like the Win 98 ... and the list of errors
[16:57] <Pici> A1Recon: I think this evolution error is the least of your problems then.
[16:57] <Technobliterator> hey, is this the correct place to ask for technical support?
[16:58] <Myrtti> A1Recon: you got cut off at "Graphics is bro"
[16:58] <Pici> Technobliterator: If you're using Ubuntu, yes.
[16:58] <Technobliterator> ah, well I am
[16:58] <A1Recon>  Graphics is broken as in everything is square/sharp like the Win 98 ... and the list of errors.....
[16:59] <jpbouza> I'm trying to install ubuntu in an AMD Phenom x4 machine, I tried with all the extra options, such as nomodeset, but I still get a black screen after pressing install ubuntu...

[16:59] <jpbouza> 10.04 works fine
[16:59] <maroon> I am having trouble with SLI on Ubuntu. The display will not initialise once the second card is connected.
[16:59] <zamba> how do i get the prompt from grub2?
[16:59] <zamba> i tried shift and esc, but nothing
[16:59] <Technobliterator> I've had this issue regarding installing AMD's "Catalyst" driver - in that I've tried to install it from multiple sources, the first time it installed, though when rebooting it stayed on the non-proprietary driver, while the other times no noticable change has occurred and they don't seem to install a thing
[16:59] <zamba> how do i know grub2 actually works? i selected "chainload into grub 2" or whatever it's called, and the system booted
[17:00] <A1Recon> Myrtti: Pici: A ScrnShot taken during the last restart .... see the Firefox GUI looks odd http://i.imgur.com/26Dtv9k.png So every scrollbar is odd right now...all buttons are square... :( :(
[17:00] <meimyself> i think if you hold shift while its booting it should show the grub menu
[17:01] <zamba> meimyself: which is what i tried
[17:01] <auronandace> A1Recon: its just using a different theme
[17:01] <A1Recon> auronandace: This is not a theme.... wait I will show you something else

[17:34] <gartral> hello all, i'm having an issue working with SSH keys, no matter what I've tried my desktop is always asking me for a password when SSHing out to another machine
[17:35] <zykotick9> gartral: a) did you put a password on your key and b) did you use ssh-copy-id to copy the pub key over?
[17:35] <gartral> zykotick9: no and yes
[17:35] <faugusztin> gartral: 1) does user account at the remote machine have your pubkey ? 2) does the remove server has pubkeyauthentication enabled ?
[17:35] <mehdi> Hi people, i did whatever i can but NOTHING is working to read from the serial TTYS0 !
[17:36] <gartral> faugusztin: yes and yes
[17:36] <faugusztin> then either your SSH client is sending a different key, or is not sending any at all, or remote SSH server  wasn't restarted
[17:37] <zykotick9> gartral: seen the output of "ssh -vvvv user@foo"?
[17:38] <gartral> zykotick9: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6151087/
[17:39] <Sheila> what is mean that error /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
[17:39] <anon78798> I'm looking for bootloader help. I currently have a ~1 year old windows 7 box (OEM installed). The first partition on its HDD is a ~100 MB NTFS partition called "SYSTEM", which I'm guessing is an EFI boot partition
[17:39] <gartral> zykotick9: I really think it's something with my desktop, not the servers. this same behavior is reproducable no matter what server I'm connecting too
[17:39] <daftykins> anon78798: not necessarily, no
[17:39] <faugusztin> anon78798: 100mb partition is a windows recovery partition
[17:39] <TJ-> gartral: does your users's .ssh/ contain several id_rsa keys for different services?
[17:40] <gartral> TJ-: yes
[17:40] <anon78798> I installed Ubunutu 13.04 desktop configuring partitions manually. I made an ext4 partition for / and a swap partition but didn't touch the boot partition. After installation my computer booted into windows as normal
[17:41] <TJ-> gartral: In which case, the fault usually is that the ssh client is offering every identity in turn and the server refuses to use more than X keys. You need to Add the "IdentitiesOnly yes" option
[17:41] <anon78798> I'm guessing grub wasn't installed for some reason
[17:41] <anon78798> faug: I have a separate 16.5 GB HP_RECOVERY partition.
[17:41] <TJ-> gartral: I have all my regular hosts in ~/.ssh/hosts with the lines "IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_some_server" and "IdentitiesOnly yes"
[17:42] <BluesKaj> anon78798:  it was probly installed , hold the left shift key down right after the BIOS screen until grub appears
[17:42] <wheatthin> anon78798, you can try looking at fdisk
[17:42] <wheatthin> the partition might need to be marked bootable
[17:43] <TJ-> gartral: You can also add "IdentitiesOnly yes" as a stand-alone option to the top of ~/.ssh/config to affect all your hosts
[17:43] <anon78798> yeah I booted up the live CD and the partition I installed it too has stuff in it so I think it was installed
[17:43] <zykotick9> gartral: comparing your paste to my output, the only major difference i see is you have "ebug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password" while mine just has publickey?
[17:43] <BluesKaj> anon78798:  then in /etc/defualt/grub change the timeout to however many swconds you want grub to appear for
[17:44] <anon78798> who is the left shift key talking too? The BIOS? Windows boot loader?
[17:44] <TJ-> anon3875: To grub
[17:44] <Version1> anon78798: step1. download GRUB2Win from http://sourceforge.net/projects/grub2win/
[17:44] <anon78798> Where is grub installed?
[17:44] <BluesKaj> then run sudo update-grub , anon78798
[17:44] <BluesKaj> too many cooks , again .. \
[17:45] <anon78798> I'll look at that grub2win
[17:46] <Version1> anon78798: step 2. install GRUB2win
[17:46] <BluesKaj> grub's most likely installed , anon78798
[17:46] <wheatthin> hmm is it me or is github down?
[17:47] <LjL> wheatthin: it's you, but also, i'm sure you could use http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ and avoid asking here, where it's really not on topic
[17:47] <gartral> zykotick9: yes, that makes sense, though pubkey should be used before password, I left it that way because this is a headless server and completely lacks a monitor port of any fashion, if I corrupt or lose my keys I would have to force shutdown the server, transplant the hdd, fix my keys them put the drive back in and start back up
[17:47] <wheatthin> lol my bad, I didn't know something random like that existed.
[17:48] <Version1> anon78798: step 3. boot using live CD and copy grub.cfg to Flash drive
[17:49] <anon78798> blues: you think grub was installed in the linux partition I created and the BIOS is defaulting to booting off the first partition and hence booting windows?
[17:52] <kitty1> hi all :)
[17:52] <daftykins> greetings
[17:52] <ferros> Hi kitty1
[17:52] <kitty1> Can I recieve e-mails directly to my ubuntu, (for example : user@my_ip = my e-mail)?
[17:52] <gartral> zykotick9: did you see my post?
[17:53] <jmgk> hi
[17:53] <zykotick9> gartral: i did.  but i'm affraid i have no further suggestion... best of luck!
[17:54] <gartral> TJ-: even with your suggestion, it's asking for a password
[17:55] <Version1> anon78798: step 4. replace the grub.cfg at C:\grub2 with the grub.cfg you copied to the Flash drive
[17:57] <BluesKaj> anon78798: usually grub installs itself in the windows mbr, but booting into windows first is unusual , I'll admit that , load the live ubuntu media you used to do the install , and have a look at the partitions in gparted
[17:57] <Version1> anon78798: Step 5. reboot and select grub2win
[17:58] <lampsBR> hp
[17:58] <anon78798> version1: thanks for your instructions but I'm not sure I want to use grub2win
[18:00] <anon78798> blueskay: here are the partitions
[18:00] <anon78798> blue: 100 MB NTFS "SYSTEM"
[18:00] <anon78798> 930 GB NTFS "C" windows boot partition
[18:01] <anon78798> 195 GB NTFS "Data" extended partition
[18:01] <wheatthin> anon78798, please use pastebin
[18:01] <Anonynimity> ubuntu is lagging in gaming. could anyone help fix this?
[18:01] <wheatthin> !paste | anon78798
[18:01] <anon78798> I'm currently booted on windows bc ethernet isn't working when I boot off the livecd
[18:02] <kitty1> Anonynimity: zram can increase RAM;
[18:02] <anon78798> so I'm not copy-pasting. Should I use pastebin for what I type up?
[18:02] <Anonynimity> I don't know that ram is the problem
[18:02] <anon78798> I guess I'll post a screenshoot
[18:02] <kitty1> mmmm...
[18:02] <BluesKaj> anon78798:  , no ext partitions ?
[18:03] <kitty1> Anonynimity: or videodriver is the bottleneck... sometimes
[18:03] <Anonynimity> I'm running ubuntu 13.10 kitty1
[18:03] <Anonynimity> is there a diagnostic command I can use to check ram/videodriver?
[18:03] <daftykins> Anonynimity: you're in the wrong channel then, #ubuntu+1
[18:03] <BluesKaj> if you're on windows anon78798 , it won't report the ext/linux partitions
[18:04] <TristamWrk> I need help with an ubuntu server install with two NICs, each connected to a different vlan.  I can only access one of the vlans.  I would appreciate any help!
[18:04]  * gartral screams in frustration
[18:04] <anon78798> http://imagebin.org/271820
[18:05] <anon78798> the 465 GB one is really an ext4 partition mounted at /
[18:05] <chaotic_good> anyone here using memcached on ubuntu with .net?
[18:06] <Version1> anon78798: grub2win is second option in boot menu. it  can boot ubuntu installed on HDD if edit or replace its config file.
[18:08] <BluesKaj> anon7 looks like ther's no install/data on the first2 partitions ..they're empty
[18:08] <BluesKaj> anon78798: ^
[18:09] <AlphaPinky> I wonder if Ubuntu has a backdoor, Dell is selling it. Or it would not be NSA complient.
[18:10] <compdoc> you can trust the NSA
[18:10] <ggherdov> hi. what was that trick to know from what pack
[18:10] <guest6969> where can i modify the notifications daemon?
[18:10] <guest6969> lubuntu<
[18:10] <AlphaPinky> compdoc, can you?
[18:10] <ggherdov> hi. what was that trick to know from what package a given binary X was installed ?
[18:10] <compdoc> they rarely delete files
[18:11] <anon78798> blues: those appearing empty is just an artifact of windows not understanding linux partitions
[18:12] <anon78798> when I boot the livecd and look at them I see an ext4 partition and a swap partition
[18:12] <pp> hi
[18:12] <pp> hello
[18:13] <trench> pp - yes?
[18:13] <pp> how r u
[18:13] <trench> whut?
[18:13] <teddyp1cker> hi
[18:14] <pp> :P
[18:14] <teddyp1cker> can anyone suggest me a fix to Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-moduleanberra-gtk-module" error ?
[18:14] <trench> google ;)
[18:15] <teddyp1cker> trench: i tried but all i saw bugreports, bureports...
[18:16] <trench> try another appliction
[18:16] <whatever_42> hey. is there a way to keep the mouse from moving when i perform a click on my touchpad?
[18:16] <trench> or fix it yourself? ;)
[18:16] <teddyp1cker> can you suggest any alternatives to monodevelop ?)
[18:17] <teddyp1cker> it's appears in every gtk app
[18:17] <owner> ubuntu system would be making a high pitched sound
[18:17] <trench> http://alternativeto.net/software/monodevelop/
[18:17] <trench> teddyp1cker: that one was for you
[18:18] <Guest47316> me?
[18:18] <otak> ggherdov: do you mean apt-file search
[18:20] <amirite> whats the proper way to update apt, search for a package, then install it? sorry, i use gentoo so much i always forget in ubuntu
[18:21] <ibekks> amirite: sudo apt-get update; apt-cache search...
[18:22] <sover> how do I enable Pre-released Updates by editing /etc/apt/sources.list?
[18:23] <teddyp1cker> trench: http://paste.kde.org/p494053e8. it appears in _every_ gtk app your advice seems to be useless)
[18:23] <wilee-nilee> sover, not a good idea in general
[18:23] <trench> teddyp1cker: don't care, I'm a console guy ;)
[18:23] <sover> wilee-nilee: in this case, I need a driver that is only available there in order to get my wifi working
[18:24] <raj__> hi
[18:24] <wilee-nilee> sover, Might be in a ppa most likely, what driver, opening that will add others you don't need.
[18:25] <sover> bcmwl-kernel-source version 6.30.223.30-1
[18:25] <jayar> how do i remove the clock from the "sleep" screen? (the one you drag up to log in)
[18:25] <sover> wilee-nilee: bcmwl-kernel-source version 6.30.223.30-1
[18:25] <SurrealFox> Just curious, what is the difference between refering to the root path as "/" or as "//"?
[18:26] <Echo_420> i need a hard core computer wiz to msg me
[18:26] <compdoc> heh
[18:26] <Wiz_KeeD> Echo_420, i'm wiz
[18:26] <ibekks> Echo_420:  you need to ask a specific ubuntu question.
[18:26] <Echo_420> yeah
[18:26] <wilee-nilee> sover, http://askubuntu.com/questions/315950/drivers-for-wireless-card-asus-pce-ac66/316320#316320
[18:27] <Williams323> hi
[18:27] <sover> wilee-nilee: yes, that is the reference I've found and am following: "If you are running 13.04, open Software and Updates and select Prereleased Updates under the Updates tab."
[18:27] <Williams323> wassup?
[18:27] <ironfoot495> Hello is there someone who can hellp me with a php program.It is a column and row  matrix I'm trying to write Data to it is not working. It is from a book example from the Book, PHP and MYSQL  Web Development by Luke Welling and Laura Thomson.
[18:28] <jayar> ironfoot495: thats not a Ubuntu question. try ##php
[18:28] <sover> wilee-nilee: So back to my original question.  How can I enable prereleased updtaes by editing /etc/apt/sources.list (I'm not running the gui)
[18:28] <wilee-nilee> sover, Not sure if that helps, opening pre-release is problematic overall, and no I have it closed, the releases there can cause problems from what I inderstand, I would just investigate that source more before just opening it is all.
[18:29] <ironfoot495> ok I'll give it a try. Thanks.
[18:29] <sover> wilee-nilee: Appreciate the concern.  I'm not running this for stability atm (running from ram on liveboot).  This box'll be wiped in a but a moment  :)
[18:29] <wilee-nilee> sover, find it in the sources and remove the # is all
[18:29] <ibekks> Echo_420: there is no need to contact me outside this channel.
[18:29] <sover> wilee-nilee: I don't seem to have it in sources at all to uncomment  :(
[18:29] <Skrrp> I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) on my server and it's now getting 404's when I apt-get update. Guessing LTS has run out. Is the upgrade path stable enough for me to dist-upgrade? --it's a rented dedi-box so I can't physically access it to reboot, recover or stick a USB into it to save it if anything goes wrong. Is Ubuntu stable enough for me to apt-get dist-upgrade?
[18:29] <FroMaster> How can I check to see what version of a driver is included with a specific kernel? I'm looking to find what version of the Intel ixgbe driver is included with 3.5.0-23-generic
[18:29] <sover> wilee-nilee: could you PM the deb line of it to me?
[18:31] <Echo_420> k well when i turned my system on today it came up to a black screen with 4 white lines n made a high pitch sound
[18:31] <skulltip> i like nautilus but when it pops up unexpectedly when using an application in fluxbox, gnome hijacks my desktop. how can i prevent this, uninstall nautilus?
[18:31] <ironfoot495> jayar: they say I need to registered. How do I get registered?
[18:31] <Echo_420> now everytime i shut it off or turn it on it makes that sound
[18:31] <nulln0pnap> ironfoot495 go to http://codeshare.io/Wqxfi perhaps I can help
[18:31] <nulln0pnap> paste your code there
[18:31] <Pici> !register | ironfoot495
[18:31] <ibekks> Echo_420: then you have a hardware defect somewhere.
[18:31] <ironfoot495> ok thanks nulln0pnap
[18:32] <nulln0pnap> yup yup
[18:32] <Echo_420> how do u fix it
[18:32] <wilee-nilee> sover, I'm not sure it is there to be honest I see it in the gui on my precise set up not ticked but not in the sources, maybe it is added when ticked, not sure is all.
[18:32] <ibekks> Echo_420:  by replacing the defective hardware.
[18:33] <sover> wilee-nilee: worth finding out, if only for a moment between apt-get updates?  ;)
[18:33] <Echo_420> where do i find a new defective software at
[18:33] <wilee-nilee> sover, basically I have never used that source, so I'm not really familiar with it so not the best help with it, others may know.
[18:34] <thirtythreeforty> I'm trying to initialize repo on an Ubuntu server, and when I run 'repo init' it skips downloading GPG keys and tries to start cloning a repo, which fails because it doesn't have GPG keys.  Why?
[18:35] <ibekks> Echo_420: hardware is not software.
[18:35] <Echo_420> ok so could you explain it to me how i can fix it
[18:36] <ibekks> Echo_420: you have to identify the broken hardware and replace it. It has nothing to do with ubuntu.
[18:36] <Echo_420> oh
[18:36] <Echo_420> how do i find it
[18:39] <tbagzzz> if I'm running 10.04, would upgrading the kernel without updating the OS itself give me access to newer drivers?  I'm on a laptop with a combined network/BT controller and there aren't drivers on 10.04
[18:40] <ibekks> tbagzzz: you should update to 12.04
[18:40] <Janos> hello, does anyone know where to get a recent backport of qemu-kvm for precise ?
[18:41] <compdoc> you mean a newer version than whats in the repos?
[18:41] <Janos> i really need >1.1 to work with gns3, maybe some ppa is available ?
[18:41] <Janos> compdoc yes
[18:41] <Janos> repo version is 1.0
[18:41] <delinquentme> so say you accidentally run echo ". /usr/bin/virtualenv" > ~/.bashrc
[18:41] <delinquentme> is there an easy way to get that lost data back?
[18:41] <Echo_420> how do i get to the boot
[18:42] <compdoc> usually best to compile the latest, but Ive tried that with qemu-kvm and could not make it work
[18:42] <tbagzzz> I can't seem to get a stable enough build environment in 12.04.   I tried configuring my packages and libraries and managed to crash 12.04 twice when trying to set it up that way but the compat-wireless-backport packages won't work with the hardware either.
[18:43] <tbagzzz> the only solution I've found is tethering my computer to my android phone but leaving my phone connected for several hours every time I sync source is just not an acceptable option in my opinion
[18:44] <Janos> it's weird, I thought precise was based on debian wheezy, but my wheezy installation had 1.1.2 but precise comes with 1.0
[18:46] <genii> delinquentme: cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~/  && chown $(whoami): ~/.bashrc
[18:47] <delinquentme> genii, this looks like black magic
[18:47] <genii> delinquentme: It copies the template file which is used when you add new users, then changes the ownership to you
[18:50] <whatever_42> can i lock my mousepad while i am clicking?
[18:50] <genii> delinquentme: If the bad .bashrc is currently in use, after the commands I gave earlier, do in addition: source ~/.bashrc
[18:54] <delinquentme> genii, but this will only be the template version right? Not the exact version I had running
[18:55] <chaotic_good> I have my own opinions on many things.
[18:55] <chaotic_good> oh yes I do
[18:55] <genii> delinquentme: Correct.
[18:55] <genii> delinquentme: The one you had running is permanently gone.
[18:55] <delinquentme> genii, noted. thanks.

I am trying to build a rpm and it keeps on messing up the --buildroot directory and looks for it "/usr/local/TeamCity/rpm/BUILDROOT/silveragent_sa-1.59.0-rc0.29399.x86_64/opt/srt/packages/silveragent_sa-1.59.0-rc0.29399" when it is just in the ending "/opt/srt/packages/silveragent_sa-1.59.0-rc0.29399" directory. When I add a --buildroot /tmp to see how it draws the paths I get it going
[19:11] <scavmartin> "/tmp/opt/srt/packages/silveragent_sa-1.59.0-rc0.29399" so I want a --buildroot / but it does not allow / to be buildroot. How do I get around this?

[19:16] <jpds> Willdude123: Why would you want to?
[19:16] <Willdude123> jpds, because I want to stream mp3s etc from my server.
[19:17] <Willdude123> And I tried following this https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/UbuntuCompilationGuide but VLC still won't recognize it
[19:17] <bobapplepie> when using the commandline, what is the command for running  a program?  Is it sudo?
[19:18] <jpds> Willdude123: Well, you're better off installing the MP3 libraries instead as u-r-e is going to pull in a ton of stuff like java, flash, etc.
[19:18] <jpds> bobapplepie: Just the program name, like: 'top'.

[19:19] <Willdude123> I can't find any that work.
[19:19] <chaotic_good> hm
[19:19] <chaotic_good> anyone here running memcached on ubuntu feeding .net?
[19:20] <Willdude123> I's got lame though
[19:20] <Willdude123> So it should work
[19:20] <narcos> Hi there. How can I just give the URL of the package to be download with apt-get ?
[19:21] <narcos> i.e. don't download/install, just give the URL to the .deb
[19:21] <bekks> narcos: You cant, that doesnt work.
[19:21] <gregor3005> hi, i converted a cd to mp3 with sound-juicer and the mp3 file has a bitrate of 32kb/s. does anybody know how i can edit the profile in sound juicer? i can remember that months ago there were a button to change it but now i see that there is no button anymore
[19:21] <narcos> bekks: So, I have a box that doesn't have internet access. I want to install a package. I was thinking to grab the required files form another machine, and drop the .debs onto the internetless one?.?
[19:22] <MonkeyDust> !offline | narcos
[19:22] <BluesKaj> 32kbs ...greg it must sound like crap
[19:22] <BluesKaj> gregor3005: ^
[19:22] <narcos> MonkeyDust: Hm, ta. I don't have a GUI on this box though
[19:23] <sover> ubottu: where can I find the repo information for prerelease to add to /etc/apt/sources.list?  I'm not running gui
[19:23] <sover> Oh, right.
[19:23] <gregor3005> BluesKaj: yes it does, after the second song i tought that there is anything wrong, took a little to find out the cause :-)
[19:24] <MonkeyDust> narcos  what you can, download the required packages, without installing... put them on a usb stick and copy to the offline machine
[19:24] <MonkeyDust> can do*
[19:24] <BluesKaj> gregor3005:  that kind of sample rate is ok for voice tho
[19:24] <narcos> MonkeyDust: That's exactly what I want to do. How can I figure out what the files are...?
[19:24] <narcos> I see a --download-only option, but this version of apt-get doesn't seem to have it
[19:24] <Willdude123> jpds do you have any idea what the problem is?
[19:25] <bekks> narcos: Just read the linki given.
[19:25] <jpds> narcos: It does.
[19:25] <jpds> narcos: Oh, version.
[19:25] <bobapplepie> except for youtube, flash has a sound delay
[19:25] <bobapplepie> does anyone know how to fix?
[19:25] <jpds> Willdude123: No, I have no idea what streaming server you're using, etc.
[19:25] <Willdude123> jpds, Oh OK. I'm using VLC
[19:25] <narcos> bekks: That's what I'm trying to find
[19:25] <gregor3005> BluesKaj: ah i found that banshee can import the cd and i can edit some settings for the converter
[19:26] <kkg2005> hello there
[19:26] <kkg2005> please help me
[19:26] <bekks> kkg2005: Please ask a specific question before.
[19:26] <teknix1337> What is the difference between 13.04 and 12.04 besides the support length?
[19:26] <kkg2005> i wont to copy my photo from hdd (old pc was broken) and my new pc cant copy? no premission
[19:27] <teknix1337> is 13.04 for stable and doesn't need support?
[19:27] <gregor3005> BluesKaj: but the cd has some problem too, its is "nneka - soul is heavy" sometimes the voice is not so good, played from the cd
[19:27] <jhutchins> kkg2005: Use sudo.
[19:27] <kkg2005> hmm
[19:28] <kkg2005> how i can use sudo in filemanager without console,
[19:28] <kkg2005> ?
[19:28] <BluesKaj> gregor3005:  why mp3 anything these days unless you're putting it on a mobile device
[19:28] <SegF4ult> hi guys
[19:28] <delinquentme> How Do: Locate all python versions installed ona  system?
[19:28] <teknix1337> hi
[19:29] <quantumpants> hi guys, can anybody tell me how to change my computer name from the long mass of numbers it is currently?
[19:29] <delinquentme> I'm assuming it can be pulled form the filesystem in /usr/bin or something?
[19:29] <SegF4ult> does anyone here have any experience installing Ubuntu on a machine with NVidia Optimus technology?
[19:29] <gregor3005> BluesKaj: i would also use it to im play on my iphone
[19:29] <kkg2005> ok senku i try
[19:29] <zimbo> i need to convert some video from various formats to ogg theora - is there something like imagemagick but for video? it's for the web
[19:29] <narcos> So, I'm trying to install hostapd on an arm box. Here's the output from apt-get install hostapd - http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=DviFTqes
[19:29] <gregor3005> BluesKaj: normally i would prefer ogg or flac
[19:29] <SegF4ult> because for some reason, the Ubuntu installer freezes with messages from nouveau
[19:29] <BluesKaj> gregor3005:  ok , understood
[19:29] <narcos> Which makes me think I should find the file here? - http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/precise/universe/binary-armhf/
[19:29] <narcos> but I don't
[19:30] <Gentoo64> zimbo: oggenc
[19:30] <LarsN> quantumpants: I believe you can set the hostname under networking as part of system-settings.  Or you can use the hostname command
[19:30] <gregor3005> some banshee experts here? does anybody know how i can change the settings how banshee import a audio cd?
[19:31] <quantumpants> thanks Larsn, ill try
[19:32] <SegF4ult> Is there some way to force the ubuntu installer to use a VESA framebuffer rather than accelerated graphics through Nouveau?
[19:32] <Rory> gregor3005: Go to preferences
[19:32] <Rory> gregor3005: One of the tabs has options for different media sources (audio cd, last fm, etc)
[19:32] <LarsN> SegF4ult: you canuse nomodeset on the kernel line in grub.
[19:32] <narcos> Hm, looks like this is almost it - http://ports.ubuntu.com/pool/universe/h/hostapd/hostapd_0.7.3-4ubuntu1_armhf.deb
[19:33] <narcos> Or, is it, actually
[19:33] <gregor3005> Rory: how could i say how the folder naming should be
[19:33] <SegF4ult> LarsN, nomodeset? what does that exactly do?
[19:33] <Rory> gregor3005: I'm not sure, if you can't see an option for it in the preferences you can't do it in Banshee
[19:33] <jaccarmac> I have a question regarding wireless drivers (for a MacBook Air).
[19:33] <Rory> Ask it then jaccarmac
[19:33] <gregor3005> Rory: ok
[19:33] <kkg2005> please help me, how i can start filemanager in console with sudo?
[19:33] <Rory> gregor3005: There are loads of programs to rip CDs though
[19:33] <Rory> kkg2005: gksu nautilus
[19:34] <jaccarmac> Is there any benefit/negative effect of having both bcmwl-kernel-source and b43-fwcutter installed at the same time?
[19:34] <kkg2005> senku
[19:34] <quantumpants> Larsn, i dont suppose you know the hostname command do you?
[19:34] <gregor3005> Rory: i know, i started asunder seconds ago but here i have the problem that it does not find the naming, sound-juicer was nice because it uses the music brainz db
[19:35] <LarsN> SegF4ult: as I understand it, it uses the actual driver, rather than the FB abstraction.  Hoever I'm not entirely sure that will do what you want with the Nvidia open source driver.  It's worth a shot,and won't persist through a reboot if you set it at boot time via grub.
[19:35] <quantumpants> help
[19:35] <jaccarmac> Rory: Is there any benefit/negative effect of having both bcmwl-kernel-source and b43-fwcutter installed at the same time?
[19:36] <SegF4ult> LarsN, I don't actually have an Ubuntu install on that laptop yet, it freezes upon booting the installer package
[19:36] <LarsN> quantumpants: hostname mynewhostname
[19:36] <Rory> jaccarmac: I think you meant to ask someone else :)
[19:36] <jaccarmac> I'm just worried that my original query got lost.
[19:36] <LarsN> SegF4ult: you can also use the, F6? option at boot on the installer, and u set nomodeset there, or even choose safe mode iirc.
[19:37] <jaccarmac> Is there any benefit/negative effect of having both bcmwl-kernel-source and b43-fwcutter installed at the same time?
[19:37] <dtcrshr> hello! I have this acer notebook with recently installed ubuntu. I cant install anything, it claims some packages are broken, but apt-get -f install as it suggests does nothing.
[19:37] <LarsN> quantumpants: I'm not 100% certain that's correct.  Your prompt won't change immediately.
[19:38] <dtcrshr> I keep gettin errors related to libreoffice, and when trying apt-get -f it gives an error "rmdir impossible to remove ..... not found"
[19:38] <LarsN> dtcrshr: did you do apt-get update first?
[19:38] <dtcrshr> many times larsjaa
[19:38] <dtcrshr> LarsN:
[19:38] <quantumpants> Larsn, well its telling me i need to be root to change the name?
[19:38] <LarsN> dtcrshr: rgr, was worth a chance.
[19:38] <kkg2005> oooo yeeesss i can copy my photoarchive!!!!! senku vm!!!!!!!
[19:38] <dtcrshr> apt-get update goesa all the way fine
[19:38] <LarsN> !sudo quantumpants
[19:38] <dtcrshr> but upgrade is broken
[19:38] <LarsN> !sudo
[19:38] <LarsN> quantumpants: ^
[19:39] <quantumpants> Sorry LarsN, im a noob! :(
[19:39] <LarsN> quantumpants: no problem.  I just knew ubottu would answer it better than I :)
[19:39] <dtcrshr> is there a way to force / fix the dependencies? I cant even uninstall the missing packages
[19:40] <LarsN> dtcrshr: I've always used : apt-get update fix-missing    I'm not sure however this will solve your problems.
[19:40] <Rory> dtcrshr: sudo apt-get -f install
[19:40]  * LarsN is rather non-committal today.
[19:40] <bl4ckdu5t> !add-apt-repository
[19:41] <bl4ckdu5t> !apt
[19:41] <TJ-> dtcrshr: Since installing Ubuntu did you manually add any other repositories, such as PPAs?
[19:42] <quantumpants> Larsn, i need a GUI! haha
[19:43] <dtcrshr> Rory: Iv tryed this already, it locks up o libreoffice
[19:43] <dtcrshr> TJ no
[19:44] <mjayk> I have a facebook icon in my dash search I do not remeber directly installing this how do I remove it ? ubuntu 13.04 unity DE
[19:44] <LarsN> quantumpants: system-settings "details" maybe?
[19:44] <quantumpants> ok
[19:44] <TJ-> dtcrshr: At a terminal, have you done "sudo apt-get update"  to ensure the package version lists are up-to-date?
[19:44] <nathan28_offace> so i just installed ruby1.8 out of the 12.04 repos
[19:44] <nathan28_offace> that can't be right
[19:44] <Rory> dtcrshr: Can you please put the full output of running the command "sudo apt-get -f install" onto http://paste.ubuntu.com
[19:48] <LarsN> quantumpants: looks like you need to do it from the command line.  sudo nano /etc/hostname
[19:48] <LarsN> change it, and save with ctrl-x
[19:48] <dtcrshr> Rory: http://pastebin.com/cytmKuzs
[19:48] <dtcrshr> paste.ubuntu isnt loading here sorry
[19:49] <dtcrshr> apt-get update dont give errors
[19:49] <gblazer> hi there, how can i change a number of open files for a given process?
[19:49] <gblazer> i checked /proc/xyz/limits and it's at 1024
[19:49] <gblazer> i need to be able to set it to ~100K requests
[19:50] <SegF4ult> what are you running that needs 100K file handles?
[19:50] <dtcrshr> TJ-:  that was the first step.
[19:51] <dtcrshr> any clues anyone?
[19:51] <quantumpants> LarsN, Got it! its "sudo myhostname (the new name)" then password etc.... :0 thanks man
[19:51] <TJ-> dtcrshr: yeah, I'm reading your pastebin now.
[19:51] <LarsN> quantumpants: or that.
[19:51] <dtcrshr> ok TJ- thanks!
[19:52] <quantumpants> LarsN, Im used to Window's and all those gui's etc.. not used to this real computer stuff ;)
[19:53] <LarsN> quantumpants: the expert in any profession, was once a novice.
[19:53] <TJ-> dtcrshr: 2 things show up there, "rmdir: falhou em remover “/var/lib/libreoffice/basis3.4”: Arquivo ou diretório não encontrado" whilst removing the old package, and  whilst unpacking the new one "leitura curta em cópia de buffer para mecanismo dpkg-deb durante './usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libvcllo.so'"
[19:54] <quantumpants> LarsN, your a very wise man indeed haha!
[19:54] <LarsN> quantumpants: or I eat a lot of Chinese take out, with fortune cookies.
[19:54] <TJ-> dtcrshr: It looks as if there may be corruption in the archive file so, to start again cleanly, remove that file so it can be downloaded again: "sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/libreoffice-core_1%3a3.5.7-0ubuntu4_i386.deb" then "sudo apt-get -f install" again
[19:55] <delinquentme> so I've got a ton of files named ( incorrectly) like this: gel_zeroing_4_00_1379995007.391658.png
[19:55] <delinquentme> I want to remove the _4_00 from them
[19:55] <TJ-> delinquentme: Use "rename"
[19:55] <kerloi> Hi all. I bought a new laptop few weeks ago and I was unable to install ubuntu 13.04 on it (many hardware problems ...) I've decided to test ubuntu 13.10. The installation went fine but then when I start my laptop I have the grub 2 command line ... I tried to re-install without success or to live boot and re-run grub update and install without any success
[19:56] <delinquentme> Or better yet move the _4_00 to the end of the name ... bust before .png
[19:56] <dtcrshr> ill try
[19:56] <quantumpants> LarsN, I have a good one for you. "The difference between insanity and genius is measured only by success!"
[19:57] <delinquentme> TJ-, any thoughts on how to relocate the portions of the strings?
[19:57] <kerloi> I stuck with that for three days and it's very frustrating. My laptop use bios but boot in efi mode with a GPT hard drive. I've created both an efi partition and a bios partition ...
[19:57] <wilee-nilee> kerloi, You want #ubuntu+1 lets talk there.
[19:58] <TJ-> delinquentme: something like, but check this first, "rename -n  's/^(.*)(_4_00)(.*)(.png)/\1\3\2\4/' *.png"
[19:58] <kerloi> wilee-nilee, ok thx
[19:58] <TJ-> delinquentme: rename uses a Perl regular expression. The one I've given there splits the filename into 4 groups, and then re-orders the groups
[20:00] <TJ-> delinquentme: You can play with that Regexp... when the command shows it is working correctly, remove the "-n" option and it'll make the changes instead of just showing what it would do
[20:01] <delinquentme> TJ-, HAX
[20:01] <delinquentme> deal
[20:01] <Version1> kerloi: do you have ubuntu installed at present?
[20:02] <LarsN> delinquentme: TJ- : I read recently that sysadmins wield regex like weapons.  ;)
[20:02] <delinquentme> LarsN, Its crazy stuff haha  TJ- you nailed it man.
[20:03] <TJ-> delinquentme: It worked first time?
[20:03] <delinquentme> quick breakdown on how it work?
[20:03]  * TJ- falls off his chair!
[20:03] <delinquentme> TJ-, totally.
[20:03] <delinquentme> lol
[20:03] <delinquentme> gel_zeroing_4_00_1380015959.701569.png renamed as gel_zeroing_1380015959.701569_4_00.png
[20:03] <delinquentme> exquisite.
[20:04] <TJ-> delinquentme: in RegExps, parenthesis are group operators () and you can make references to captured groups in the replacement specification using \x where x is the group number. The first pair of parenthesis are #1, the second pair #2, etc.
[20:04] <koy> fsdf
[20:04] <koy> dsf
[20:04] <koy> sf
[20:04] <koy> sf
[20:04] <koy> sd
[20:04] <FloodBot1> koy: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:04] <TJ-> koy, don't carp
[20:04] <LarsN> TJ-, delinquentme: MAC=`sed -n 's/.*mac address=.[0-9A-Fa-f][0-9A-Fa-f]:\(.*\).\/>/\1/p' /var/lib/libvirt/instances/instance-$SETINSTANCE/libvirt.xml`  Is about as crazy as I've gone.
[20:05] <koy> Oh sorry, wrong channel! I also opened a test channel
[20:05] <delinquentme> OMGGGG LarsN TJ- I love you guys
[20:05] <kristal> How much faster is fglrx for 7000 series than the best oss drivers?
[20:06] <TJ-> LarsN: I do find myself deep in sed and awk often, as well as grep, so I've gritted my teeth and forced myself to learn RegExp... and it is so powerful... but the conciseness makes it hard to read
[20:06] <dtcrshr> TJ-: removing the corrupted .deb files worked, thanks
[20:06] <dtcrshr> it was on my face :D
[20:06] <TJ-> dtcrshr: Yay, I'm on a roll :D
[20:07] <LarsN> TJ-: everything I write qualifies as terrible and ugly.  Although it usually works as expected.
[20:07] <A1Recon> I hit Shift-Delete on some files ....oops is there a way to get them back??
[20:07] <TJ-> LarsN: Yeah. I tend to write stuff that might need doing again as scripts kept in /usr/local/bin/ so I often take time making them bullet-proof by figuring them out properly, same with RegExps.
[20:08] <bekks> A1Recon: From your backup.
[20:08] <A1Recon> bekks: if i have no backup of those files then??
[20:08] <TJ-> A1Recon: Not easily, but if you shutdown / unmount the file-system you might recover them using photorec and/or testdisk from a liveCD
[20:08] <LarsN> TJ-: I've started uploading all of my scripts (and a lot of other garbage) to a personal gitolite server.
[20:09] <TJ-> LarsN: Good plan!
[20:09] <bekks> A1Recon: Then those file wrent worth to be kept. Since you are using a journalled filesystem, chances are very low that the files still exist.
[20:09] <LarsN> which is backed up to object storage, and another datacenter (just in case)
[20:09] <TJ-> LarsN: It's good admin practice to version-control scripts and keep them centrally. I have an NFS share that is mounted to /usr/local/ on all servers that contains my own built tools
[20:12] <A1Recon> bekks: NTFS is journalling file system??
[20:12] <bekks> A1Recon: Yes.
[20:13] <delinquentme> \1 better written as $1 at (eval 43) line 1.  TJ-
[20:13] <A1Recon> TJ-: I downloaded a tar.bz2 file of photorec what do i do next??
[20:14] <A1Recon> how do i run the tar.bz2 file?
[20:14] <TJ-> delinquentme: Correct, but I'm set in my ways and using $1 can sometimes cause confusion with being interpreted as a shell variable, which requires extra escaping to avoid
[20:14] <bekks> A1Recon: You have to unpack it.
[20:17] <A1Recon> bekks: OK extracted it...
[20:17] <A1Recon> then?
[20:17] <bekks> Run it.
[20:17] <bekks> !photorec
[20:17] <bekks> hmm.
[20:19] <bekks> A1Recon: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec_Step_By_Step
[20:20] <A1Recon> bekks: Thanks!! I was reading it already but thanks!!

[20:33] <A1Recon> I hit shift-delete for some files.... I downloaded the tar.bz2 of photorec to my home directory and extracted.... can someone tell me how to run it?? I went here http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec_Step_By_Step but when i ran the command "sudo testdisk-6.14/photorec_static". I get this "sudo: testdisk-6.14/photorec_static: command not found"
[20:33] <A1Recon> Please help those were some pretty important files!!
[20:34] <Wiz_KeeD> hello guys
[20:35] <A1Recon> please help!! Anyone!!
[20:35] <Wiz_KeeD> I start a python application with ./app --options='(?i)bla' <== regex expression
[20:35] <Wiz_KeeD> that works, but if i use a daemon it fails
[20:35] <ifmw> hi, when I build a kernel and use kpkg -i to install it, does it get activated instantly or only after a reboot? uname -r still lists what I had before. This is what I did: http://pastebin.com/3J221Wh7
[20:35] <jhutchins> A1Recon: Restore them from your backup.  If they were important you made backups, right?
[20:35] <iShotz> (Ubuntu 13.04, AMD Radeon 3000) Whenver I try to install fglrx, restart my pc, i get a black screen and i can't do anything
[20:36] <A1Recon> jhutchins: i was making a backup .... i hit shift-delete for the wrong files...
[20:36] <wolfy1339> how do i install to external hdd?
[20:36] <iShotz> wolfy1339: Select the drive as the install device as well as where grub get's installed during normal install
[20:36] <gregor3005> hi, does anybody know how to link asunder with music brainz?
[20:37] <A1Recon> Plz help anybody!!
[20:38] <sover> jaccarmac, I though fw-cutter was the tool for extracting drivers
[20:38] <sover> sorry, wayyy late
[20:38] <wolfy1339> gregor3005, so i boot into the install media and i do it from there
[20:39] <jhutchins> A1Recon: I just googled ubuntu photorec to see if it's packaged for ubuntu, and it is, and there are TONS of guides.  My guess is that your binary isn't executable, but check out the guides and try the official ubuntu package - but be aware that everything you write to the disk risks overwriting those files and consider making a live CD on a different machine.
[20:39] <gregor3005> wolfy1339: what? sry i don't read what your problem was
[20:40] <wolfy1339> gregor3005, so i boot into the install media and i can install to an external hdd
[20:42] <otak> Wiz_KeeD: ./ means the directory you're in, for the daemon you must prepend the path for that directory eg /dir/in_now/app --options etc.
[20:42] <Wiz_KeeD> otak, DAEMON_OPTS="-c $CONFIGFILE --db-filter='$DBFILTER'"
[20:42] <Wiz_KeeD> and I made a new var DBFILTER
[20:43] <Wiz_KeeD> DBFILTER="(?i)project|issue|track"
[20:43] <Wiz_KeeD> but it doesn't work
[20:43] <Wiz_KeeD> the config file part works just fine
[20:44] <otak> the dot slash part before app, did you replace that with the full path?
[20:45] <Wiz_KeeD> what are you talking about?
[20:45] <xubuntu> hi, how to config my installation on a efi ssd raid0 system dual boot.
[20:45] <Wiz_KeeD> ahh, that's not the problem otak
[20:45] <Wiz_KeeD> it runs, that argumnet is not being passed right
[20:46] <Guest90158> i have no clue how to make partitions. whats needed for ssds etc.
[20:46] <Guest90158> .
[20:46] <otak> < Wiz_KeeD>  I start a python application with ./app --options
[20:46] <schultza> im looking for a way to resize via scaling a rdp session to windows. do you guys know of a client that can do this?
[20:46] <Wiz_KeeD> yeah that's not the problem it runs, it gets the proper conf file
[20:46] <Wiz_KeeD> just that one doesn't work
[20:48] <zykotick9> ifmw: if you haven't figured it out already, when you install a new kernel, you need to reboot (and select it) to "use" it...
[20:49] <otak> ok so maybe when the daemon is run it does not know about $DBFILTER or there is some problem with special characters in it
[20:50] <ifmw> zykotick9: thanks!
[20:53] <zamba> i'm preparing to replace my /dev/sda with /dev/sdc.. so far i have created a separate /boot (sdc1) and set up a LVM for sdc2 that contains / and swap.. now i want to finish this setup by setting up grub
[20:53] <zamba> how do i go about doing this?
[20:54] <martian_> I just ran some updates on some packages on a server including a series of updates to apache now it seems to be ignoring all my virtual hosts. Anyone know what changes occurred that may affect this?
[20:55] <bekks> martian_: did the update ask you to replace config files?
[20:55] <martian_> bekks: it did but I inspected the diffs and thought I say nothing but comments; I didn't see any changed directives :-/
[20:55] <compdoc> martian_, I think with apache youre asked to keep the old conf files or use the new ones
[20:56] <bekks> martian_: So you thought wrong then.
[20:57] <martian_> Indeed. Been sorting through the configs and haven't noticed a problem yet. I just figured I'd check to see if there was some fundamental change that I should have been aware of. Back to the search then!
[20:58] <SegF4ult> hey guys
[20:59] <SegF4ult> in Ubuntu, how would it be possible to set a separate key layout, even for hotplugged keyboards?
[21:00] <schultza> how do i scale a rdesktop session?
[21:03] <chaotic_good> anyone here think JFS is nicer than ext4?
[21:03] <chaotic_good> can JFS be online resized no?
[21:03] <MonkeyDust> schultza  -f for fullscreen, -g for geometry
[21:03] <chaotic_good> lvm2?
[21:03] <schultza> -f doesnt resize/scale it
[21:04] <MonkeyDust> schultza  read     man rdesktop     for more options
[21:04] <schultza> -g gets reset to the remote's lower resolution
[21:04] <bekks> schultza: Because -f is fullscreen, not resize.
[21:05] <bekks> schultza: How do you specify -g then? rdesktop runs with whatever resolution I am specifying for -g
[21:05] <schultza> rdesktop -g 1024x768 -a 16 -5 ip.add.re.ss:3391 &
[21:05] <julio__> buenas tardes, después de instalado completamente ubuntu 10.04 al cargar internet se me ha vuelto lento, ¿que hago?
[21:05] <zamba> how does grub know where root is?
[21:06] <zamba> where is that specified?
[21:07] <schultza> it's getting scaled back to 800x600
[21:07] <bekks> schultza: maybe the server doesnt support a higher resolution, or doesnt support 16bit at 1024x768.
[21:08] <blfrkt> how i can share virtual os with pricipal os
[21:08] <otak> SegF4ult: you can change keyboard layout with setxkbmap <language-code>
[21:08] <bekks> blfrkt: What do you mean by "share an OS"?
[21:09] <blfrkt> with virtualbox
[21:09] <bekks> blfrkt: Please write a full sentence. What do you mean by "share an OS"?
[21:10] <jhutchins> blfrkt: We still don't understand what you're trying to do.
[21:10] <ZIPY_> how can i open sftp via nautilus? im pretty sure there was a way
[21:10] <blfrkt> files for example
[21:10] <bekks> blfrkt: Please write a full sentence on what you are going to do.
[21:10] <ZIPY> nvm finally found it
[21:10] <ZIPY> ^^
[21:10] <jhutchins> blfrkt: What is the host OS and what is the guest OS?
[21:10] <blfrkt> ubuntu
[21:11] <blfrkt> win 8
[21:11] <bekks> !lt | blfrkt
[21:12] <MrHotsauce> ZIPY: open terminal and type nautilus sftp://sftp.server.info.here
[21:12] <zykotick9> ZIPY: try opening address bar (ctrl+n i believe) and typing sftp://ADDRESS-YOU-WANT
[21:13] <A1Recon> bekks: I am getting back the files but....Why are so many txt files being recovered??
[21:13] <bekks> A1Recon: because you deleted so many files in the past.
[21:14] <ArielX_> lol
[21:14] <SuperLag> MrHotsauce: that's good info. I didn't know Nautilus supported SFTP.
[21:15] <A1Recon> bekks: I don't remember having 7000+  txt files and some of the txt files' content is pure gibberish
[21:15] <ZIPY> i found it in file connect with server
[21:15] <ZIPY> but thx anyways
[21:15] <bekks> A1Recon: Well, thats what photorec was able to recover.
[21:16] <A1Recon> bekks: Thanks mate!! For helping me....
[21:16] <blfrkt> I experimented with the settings in virtualbox program for the sharing  files did not succeed
[21:17] <bekks> blfrkt: Then you did something wrong. The vbox manualy describes on how to share files using shared folders.
[21:18] <wylde> blfrkt: install guest additions to the guest OS and configure shared folders. It's explained on the Virtualbox website.
[21:18] <blfrkt> ok....
[21:19] <A1Recon> bekks: The files now have odd filenames.... Is it possible to get the original filenames??
[21:19] <zykotick9> blfrkt: personally, i'd use nfs (or samba) for sharing files, but "shared folders" should work too.
[21:19] <bekks> A1Recon: No.
[21:21] <wylde> A1Recon: only way to recover your files as they were before is from a backup ;)

[21:43] <OerHeks> entreri, not sure, but it is OMAP, so there is a chance it will work > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/OMAP
[21:44] <niak> entreri no
[21:46] <niak> entreri unless you know how to root it and make a custom ubuntu image XD
[21:46] <entreri> niak, yeah, I guess I will be stucked with ICS for ever lol
[21:46] <entreri> the price is nice
[21:47] <niak> see if you can root it
[21:47] <malkauns> are animated progress bars possible with gtk-3?
[21:49] <A1Recon> I usually have a backup on an External HDD. But is there something which can be automated and less prone to failure??

[21:52] <San1ty> what exactly does this command do, I don't understand:
[21:52] <San1ty> \curl -s -S -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
[21:52] <San1ty> . ~/.bash_profile
[21:53] <San1ty> is it two seperate commands or a 2 line command?
[21:53] <San1ty> and what exactly is happening there?
[21:55] <pinPoint> so apache 2.4 ppa live or enabled yet?
[21:56] <cirwin> hey #ubuntu, why is my new 12.0.4 server running 10 copies of apport?
[21:56] <daftykins> San1ty: a pipe feeds the output of one command to the second

[22:16] <enjo528> I'm having trouble getting a repository installed. After I run: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:cwchien/gradle, subsequent calls to sudo apt-get update do not actually hit the repository defined there. It's properly defined in /etc/apt/sources.list.d.
[22:17] <enjo528> I'm not sure what to do at this point, how do I debug this?
[22:17] <ixio> !apparmor
[22:17] <ixio> ^ how to kill this ?
[22:18] <anonymous34423> guest57: a little googling tells me there are ubuntu apps for doing just that: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ParentalControls
[22:19] <zykotick9> !notunity | sander__ if you mean gnome2-style, try gnome-panel
[22:19] <anonymous34423> Of course anything running on the kid's machine can be defeated by the kid inserting e.g. an ubuntu live cd and booting off that

[22:21] <ixio> !iptables
[22:22] <m_tadeu> malkauns: yeah that's part of it....but I can only setup online/offline schedules and content...I wanted to specify a maximum amount of time within the online interval
[22:23] <Guest80819> does anyone really use that OS ?
[22:23] <malkauns> m_tadeu, maybe have a script that runs on logon that sleeps for 2 hours then brings down the network interface?
[22:24] <anonymous34423> oops I hot m tadeu and a guest confused
[22:24] <m_tadeu> malkauns: and the content filter is router wide, so It would filter all access
[22:24] <malkauns> m_tadeu, for that mac address yea
[22:25] <anonymous34423> it looks like gnome nanny allows you to limit time spent on web

[22:41] <vinceableworld> I believe the world would be a better place if I knew how to teach people to use linux :)
[22:41] <mobilemeyhem> Anybody know why a good hard drive with win 7 on it would show up unallocated in a live boot if 12.04?
[22:42] <vinceableworld> You're trying to install side-by-side correct?
[22:42] <mobilemeyhem> vinceableworld: yes
[22:42] <vinceableworld> "show up unallocated" meaning it's not showing up?
[22:42] <mobilemeyhem> I've tried looking at it with gparted and it's unallocated there too
[22:43] <mobilemeyhem> The drive shows up but it doesn't show any partitions
[22:43] <mobilemeyhem> But when I Mount it I can see the files
[22:43] <vinceableworld> ic... have you attempted to install yet or no?
[22:43] <mobilemeyhem> No because it needs to run alongside Windows
[22:44] <vinceableworld> understood.
[22:44] <vinceableworld> However have you started the installation process to see your options?
[22:44] <sam___> wylde___: thanks it worked
[22:44] <anonymous34423> hi rory I'm back here it is: http://pastebin.com/ypMz3c1J
[22:44] <vinceableworld> Just saying: It might show up - you can always cancel.
[22:44] <AslR8GOP> Hi
[22:44] <anonymous34423> future pastebins will be somewhat faster
[22:45] <mobilemeyhem> Yes I have. Only allowed to format the whole drive or other options. Other options sees the drive as blank
[22:45] <AslR8GOP> i hav a qst
[22:45] <vinceableworld> Gotcha - that's prob helpful info :)
[22:45] <vinceableworld> Does it boot in windows?
[22:45] <mobilemeyhem> Just fine
[22:46] <mobilemeyhem> Works splendidly
[22:46] <vinceableworld> I got nuthin!
[22:46] <mobilemeyhem> Minus that it's Windows
[22:46] <anonymous34423> rory?
[22:46] <mobilemeyhem> It's odd. I'm thinking it has to do with eufi but I have that turned off
[22:46] <vinceableworld> That's strange - mine is side by side as well I had no issues.
[22:47] <vinceableworld> I am very close to buyin a new comp with ubuntu pre-loaded.
[22:47] <vinceableworld> or just building one.
[22:47] <Franziskus> do it man
[22:47] <AslR8GOP> anyone know the best security channel
[22:48] <anonymous34423> Is there someone here to look at my lspci -v output and tell me what's wrong with my internet? http://pastebin.com/ypMz3c1J
[22:48] <AslR8GOP> ?
[22:48] <anonymous34423> rory was helping me earlier but he's dissappeared
[22:48] <vinceableworld> Yeah I'm really starting to get a feel for linux it is growing on me. Feel the freedom! (okay done chit-chatting)
[22:48] <mobilemeyhem> AslR8GOP: no idea
[22:50] <vinceableworld> anon: First off I can say there's deff WAY too much to read :(
[22:50] <Rory> sorry anonymous34423
[22:50] <anonymous34423> s'ok I'm glad you're back rory
[22:50] <anonymous34423> sorry I got disconnected for a bit
[22:50] <vinceableworld> So we're all basically amatures in here?
[22:50] <Rory> anonymous34423: Are you using 13.04? Yes sorry, an old friend added me on Skype and I sort of forgot I was helping in here :)
[22:50] <anonymous34423> yes 13.04
[22:51] <vinceableworld> At this rate I could be head tech in a week!

[22:51] <vinceableworld> Yes, https://launchpad.net/~lexical/+archive/hwe-wireless
[22:52] <vinceableworld> narrowed my issue down. i downloaded this ppa - just need to install - something in it.
[22:52] <anonymous34423> got my pastebin rory? http://pastebin.com/ypMz3c1J
[22:52] <vinceableworld> it's the correct one for my wireless adapter
[22:52] <vinceableworld> How? <--- is my question.
[22:53] <Rory> ok anonymous34423 the problem is there is no driver for your Ethernet adaptor installed. I have a script to download a recent compat-wireless-pc driver package, install build dependencies, select the AR8161 module alx, build and install it.
[22:54] <vinceableworld> That sounded pretty professional :)
[22:54] <anonymous34423> Did you mean wired, not wireless?
[22:54] <anonymous34423> My wireless seems to be working (sees neighbors wifis) but I'd prefer to use wired
[22:54] <Console> Does anyone have any recommendations on the best way to transfer text between my laptop and my desktop if I'm working on the them at the same time?
[22:54] <Rory> anonymous34423: That's fine, trust me on this one
[22:54] <thirtythreeforty> I have a headless server that several team members need to be able to SSH into and work on a project directory.
[22:55] <thirtythreeforty> I would like to be able to allow one user to "lock" the directory so that others can't or know they shouldn't use it.  Is this possible?
[22:55] <thirtythreeforty> And yes, I know about revision control; this is a build computer.
[22:55] <vinceableworld> Console: You're wanting to operate on the same file which auto-updates?
[22:55] <Rory> anonymous34423: please run the following command: wget rory.sh/files/install_alx.sh ; sh install_alx.sh
[22:56] <Console> vinceableworld: No, I just want to share the same clipboard essentially
[22:57] <anonymous34423> uh rory if I could get stuff from the internet on my linux box I wouldn't be here
[22:57] <tylertwo> Is it possible to assign custom hotkeys from terminal? I know how to do this from Gnome-Control-Center.
[22:57] <Rory> anonymous34423: I thought the wireless worked?
[22:57] <anonymous34423> would you like me to download that file on this machine, xfer it to my linux box, and then run it?
[22:57] <Console> Like if I find a link, or want to copy/paste something from my laptop to my desktop
[22:57] <vinceableworld> I think my option is easier :)
[22:58] <Rory> anonymous34423: If you have no internet at all, that could work, hold on a min
[22:58] <Rory> anonymous34423: that file downloads other files though, so give me a little min
[22:58] <anonymous34423> Rory: the wireless is seeing neighbors wifis so I bet it's working. But my router currently has its wifi turned off
[22:59] <sander__> Should I have secure boot control enabled in the bios after i've installed ubuntu alongside with windows 8?
[22:59] <Rory> anonymous34423: Would it be possible to turn it on just to do this? If it isn't that's fine, but doing so is the easier option
[22:59] <Rory> sander__: If they were both installed with it on, then yes
[22:59] <anonymous34423> sure give me a sec to track down my router password.
[23:00] <Rory> anonymous34423: There's actually a better solution than the one I gave you, so let me know when you're connected and I'll continue

[23:01] <Rory> thirtythreeforty: You could put a file in it called _BUSY_GO_AWAY
[23:01] <Rory> thirtythreeforty: That would show at the top of a directory listing with ls -l
[23:01] <thirtythreeforty> Rory, heh, I was hoping for something a little cleaner but yeah I'll probably end up doing that if nothing else
[23:02] <leo_33>  in your opinion are the jews responsible for most of the evil in the world?
[23:02] <sander__> Rory, I installed ubuntu with it disabled.
[23:03] <sander__> Rory, and windows 8 was already there when I got it.

[23:08] <skrator> on which file should I put the commands to open programs during initialization?
[23:09] <jasper_> I'm having problems with my computer having random system crashes. I am running ubuntu studio 13.04 on a custom made computer.
[23:09] <skrator> I tried using the .bashrc located on the home directory, but it didn't work, it stopped initialization
[23:09] <thirtythreeforty> heh, the op trigger
[23:09] <skrator> until I close the program it opened
[23:12] <ifmw> Hi I installed a new kernel but haven't rebooted yet. I want to supercede it with a different one. Do I need to use dpkg to uninstall it somehow first, or will dpkg -i simply overwrite it for me?
[23:12] <jasper_> it says "at-spi2-core 2.8.0-1 has crashed" every time I log in and my computer crashes a while after.
[23:13] <justpie> Hey all, i am running ubuntu 13.04 on a dell xps 15z with gnome3 and i am running into some strange issues. When i boot up and login without my charger plugged in my battery will not charge once i plugin my charger. However, if i reboot with the charger pluged in it charges fine. Any ideas what might be causing this?
[23:13] <sander__> roy: I'm unable to get into ubuntu now, even if I enable or disable secure boot. :-(
[23:13] <ifmw> (I installed it in the first place using dpkg -i linux-image-3.11.1-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64_1.0_amd64.deb linux-headers-3.11.1-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64_1.0_amd64.deb )
[23:15] <ifmw> justpie: I had a similar issue with my asus netbook and windows. The only way I could make it work was running some bundled application to disable the adaptive power save thing. Then whenever I could connect the charger it would allow my device to charge
[23:15] <ifmw> justpie: perhaps have a poke around in the bios settings to see if there's anything useful there?

[23:24] <wenshan> Hi guys, I'm running Ubuntu 13.04 and I'm getting "libxpcom.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when executing a binary file (it's a 32-bit application, my system is 64 bit, I installed it with command linux32). Do you know which package I should install to get libxpcom.so?
