| david_ | I would like to know how to install xamp in ubuntu 12.04 but I dont know if this is the right channel for it? | 00:06 |
| ikonia | david_: use lamp instead | 00:07 |
| david_ | xamp is lamp | 00:07 |
| ikonia | david_: no it's not | 00:07 |
| ikonia | david_: it's a selfcontained version that can cause a lot of problems | 00:07 |
| ikonia | david_: hence why I said use lamp | 00:07 |
| david_ | why is that? | 00:07 |
| ikonia | david_: why is what ? | 00:08 |

| === AndresSM_away is now known as AndresSM | ||
| f00bar80 | anybody can point me on how to automate servers' ssh remote access without using keys? | 00:09 |
| ikonia | because it's not controlled by the package manager, it can cause conflicts with the ubuntu installed packages/services, it's totally self contained for "generic" linux, it's not aware of the init system | 00:09 |
| ikonia | I can go on..... | 00:10 |
| bwayne | f00bar80: you want to be able to log in automatically without using a key? | 00:11 |
| david_ | so what is the website to install lamp, im just learning all this for the first time and just want to set my self up so I can start learning PHP. | 00:11 |
| ikonia | !lamp | david_ | 00:11 |
| ubottu | david_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 00:11 |
| david_ | wow theres a lot of information in that link, do i really need to go through all of that ? | 00:13 |
| daftykins | david_: "website to install LAMP" what do you mean exactly? | 00:18 |
| ikonia | david_: yes, if you want to understand it properly, you need to do that | 00:19 |
| ikonia | david_: you only need to install the components you need | 00:19 |
| jmgk | For Wine | 00:20 |
| ikonia | david_: if you actually read the first section, you'll see the short cuts | 00:20 |
| jmgk | Will Ubuntu 10.04 support it? | 00:20 |
| jmgk | Not sure if its still supported | 00:20 |

| yoojin | Hello. Ubuntu GNOME 13.04 does not work out of the box with my laptop sound card, based on a Realtek ALC889 chip. This is actually a regression, but I am not sure how to fix it. Attatched is a link which is unintelligible to me, myself, but may be related or no. Will follow directions to resolve this issue if ANYBODY is willing to help!! https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2013-February/026143.html | 01:08 |
| Deepfriedice | linuxuz3r, Actually, read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE | 01:08 |
| linuxuz3r | Deepfriedice, ok | 01:09 |
| nevyn | yoojin: what kernel are you running? | 01:09 |
| yoojin | nevyn: How can I determine that, easily? | 01:10 |
| yoojin | nevyn: I believe 3.11.0-8-generic... But need verification. | 01:11 |
| yoojin | nevyn: Okay, nevermind, that is correct - 3.11.0-8-generic | 01:12 |
| Heeeeelp | can someone assist me in installing ubuntu on my new build | 01:13 |
| yoojin | nevyn: I've thought of going into the bios and changing modes to the older AC'97 as a fallback plan... | 01:13 |
| Deepfriedice | Heeeeelp, Are you trying to dual boot or running into problems? | 01:14 |
| Heeeeelp | just problems | 01:15 |
| yoojin | This is my precise problem. How can this solution be implemented? http://www.spinics.net/lists/stable-commits/msg19502.html | 01:16 |
| Deepfriedice | Heeeeelp, Specifically? | 01:16 |
| phunyguy | yoojin: you can compile your own kernel with the patches applied, or file a bug report on Launchpad | 01:16 |
| yoojin | phunyguy: This isn't something I've done before so I may need to do both. Can I trouble you for a little more assistance? I'm sure the linux community needs the bug report. | 01:17 |
| phunyguy | unfortunately I think your best course of action would be to let Ubuntu handle it. The turnaround time shouldn't be too bad. | 01:18 |
| phunyguy | compiling your own kernel isn't for the faint of heart. | 01:18 |
| yoojin | Well, I would love the opportunity to learn. | 01:18 |
| yoojin | Do you think there is a guide which may help? | 01:18 |
| phunyguy | !kernel | yoojin | 01:19 |
| ubottu | yoojin: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) | 01:19 |
| phunyguy | yoojin: see the special sections labeled: "Reasons for NOT compiling a custom kernel" and "Reasons for compiling a custom kernel" | 01:21 |
| phunyguy | and make your choice. :) | 01:22 |
| linuxuz3r | why whats the reason | 01:22 |
| === lafiro is now known as Beothoric | ||
| phunyguy | linuxuz3r: he has a special case that was fixed with a patch for 3.5 | 01:22 |
| nevyn | yoojin: you could just set a model parameter by hand on the audio driver | 01:22 |
| phunyguy | if that patch isn't in Ubuntu...... | 01:23 |
| phunyguy | that too. | 01:23 |
| yoojin | Woah. Yeah, that does look foreboding. So, the patch I linked earlier from http://www.spinics.net/lists/stable-commits/msg19502.html -- Let me get this straight. That link contains C code. a modified portion of the source files to the linux kernel? | 01:23 |
| phunyguy | yoojin: indeed. | 01:23 |
| nevyn | so that code just autodetects the pci id and configures the widget -> dac map based on a special set of rules because the acpi tables lie. | 01:23 |
| phunyguy | that page also says it has been added to the stable tree | 01:24 |
| yoojin | So the hardware doesn't get identified and it's an uphill struggle to maintain compatibility on the part of the kernel programmers due to the quirks of various hardware manufacturers? ...great. So, I did read that it was fixed in 3.5, however there has since been a regression that isn't documented on google as far as I can tell. | 01:25 |
| phunyguy | however I am not sure what "Stable tree" refers to in this context | 01:25 |
| yoojin | The stable tree of the Linux kernel, I 'think'. | 01:26 |
| nevyn | phunyguy: umm that it's been merged by linus (hopefully via takashi) | 01:27 |
| phunyguy | hopefully. | 01:27 |
| phunyguy | bbiab. | 01:27 |
| phunyguy | hope I helped. | 01:27 |
| yoojin | Well, yes. In theory you told me it's fixed or I can wait. I feel that there must be some kind of action I could be taking and don't know what to do, so that's a bit frustrating in and of itself. | 01:28 |
| nevyn | yoojin: you could just set a model parameter by hand on the audio driver | 01:28 |
| yoojin | nevyn: I'll run with that and come back and thank you if you're still on. | 01:29 |
| nevyn | so in /etc/modules.d/audio.conf put the line options snd-hda-intel model="insertcorrectmodelhere" | 01:29 |
| nevyn | then reboot | 01:29 |
| yoojin | WOW, you mean Like with a text editor? I'm on it. Thank you so much, much hope now. | 01:31 |
| yoojin | I wish the reasoning behind where to find these files was self-evident. I feel like an idiot at times. | 01:31 |
| nevyn | 11:30 < yoojin> Woah. Yeah, that does look foreboding. So, the patch I linked earlier from http://www.spinics.net/lists/stable-commits/msg19502.html -- Let me get this straight. That link | 01:31 |
| nevyn | contains C code. a modified portion of the source files to the linux kernel? | 01:31 |
| nevyn | 11:31 < phunyguy> yoojin: indeed. | 01:32 |
| nevyn | oops | 01:32 |
| FloodBot1 | nevyn: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:32 |
| nevyn | the correct model btw... | 01:32 |
| nevyn | is no-primary-hp | 01:32 |
| yoojin | there is no /etc/modules.d/audio.conf | 01:33 |
| yoojin | Is is possible my sound card is configured without modules? | 01:33 |
| yoojin | I'll work around getting it to a module if you think it's right. | 01:33 |
| nevyn | /etc/modprobe.d mybad | 01:33 |
| deezed | #wine | 01:34 |
| linuxuz3r | well i installed kde | 01:34 |

| reisio | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 01:35 |

| nevyn | hualet_deepin: what it says on the box | 01:38 |
| linuxuz3r | can someone help | 01:38 |
| hualet_deepin | nevyn, what box? | 01:39 |
| === line is now known as what`s_my_line | ||
| deezed | anyway guys, my thing is, I cant configure wine. Just if I use playonlinux. I can't just launch 'configure wine'. Do you know why is that? | 01:39 |
| yoojin | yes, I have done that. | 01:40 |
| reisio | hualet_deepin: if it can detect your palm, then it can distinguish it from a finger or stylus, and potentially ignore it | 01:40 |
| yoojin | modprobe reload it or restart my computer? | 01:40 |
| reisio | hualet_deepin: quite useful for, for example, being able to write on a tablet naturally (with your palm resting on the surface as well) | 01:40 |
| reisio | also frequently useful just for typing with a touchpad under "hand" | 01:40 |
| linuxuz3r | im stuck with booting ubuntu after installing kde im stuck at loading initrd.img | 01:41 |
| linuxuz3r | can someone help | 01:41 |
| what`s_my_line | how would kde mess up your init | 01:41 |
| nevyn | hualet_deepin: it's automatic detection of when the palm of your hand touches the touchpad and ignoring it. | 01:42 |
| nevyn | it has a sensitivity parameter... | 01:42 |
| linuxuz3r | well i dont know | 01:42 |
| hualet_deepin | nevyn, reisio, thanks a lot, i think it's clear for me now.. | 01:43 |
| nevyn | yoojin: you need to unload and reload the snd-hda-intel module | 01:45 |
| yoojin | nevyn: after reboot, no discernible change. | 01:45 |
| yoojin | I'll try reloading it, double checking my bios settings, and if you're around i'll be back. | 01:45 |
| nevyn | can you pastebin the contents of alsa-base? | 01:45 |
| yoojin | yoojin@Chrononaut:~$ sudo modprobe --remove snd-hda-intel | 01:46 |
| yoojin | FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel is in use. | 01:46 |
| nevyn | yeah you'll need to stop pa.. most likely | 01:47 |
| yoojin | dunno whachya mean. restarting anyways, as that's just as good. | 01:47 |
| nevyn | echo "autospawn = false" > ~/.pulse/client.conf && pactl exit | 01:47 |
| nevyn | then it should unload | 01:47 |
| hualet_deepin | iceleaf, hi buddy. | 01:51 |

| yoojin | nevyn: still no luck. | 01:54 |
| mrdeb | what | 01:54 |
| yoojin | I wonder if there is a way to confirm parameter settings have been passed from the .conf file to the module at boot or not. | 01:55 |
| yoojin | some verbose module command that'll tell me if it's operating in the mode I tried to select. | 01:55 |
| mrdeb | in terminal | 01:55 |
| MrKB | can I take a hard drive that has Ubuntu installed on it and put it on another computer with similar hardware? | 01:55 |

| MrKB | current comp is integrated | 01:57 |
| MrKB | comp it's going to has an NVIDIA GeForce 4 or something like that | 01:57 |
| mrdeb | nvidia, ati, or intel | 01:57 |
| MrKB | (both are old P4s, yes) | 01:57 |
| mrdeb | ok | 01:57 |
| mrdeb | both nvidia 7 series or before? | 01:57 |
| MrKB | one is integrated, so Intel | 01:57 |
| MrKB | the one I'm putting it on a NVIDIA one | 01:57 |
| linuxuz3r | my ubuntu wont boot | 01:57 |
| linuxuz3r | how do i fix this | 01:58 |
| mrdeb | then it will work, other way it wouldnt | 01:58 |
| mrdeb | bec intel loads auto, and it will load nouveau on other | 01:58 |
| nevyn | yoojin: can you paste the line you added in here? | 01:58 |
| yoojin | nevyn: it is passing as far as I can tell. Uno momento. | 01:59 |
| yoojin | File: /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf | 02:00 |

| yoojin | MangaKaDenza, http://www.pcworld.com/article/2028896/how-to-make-ubuntu-linux-look-like-windows-7.html | 02:37 |
| yoojin | MangaKaDenza, You can try that but in my experience anything but the default interface leaves little glitches here and there. Try it out though, it's fun what you can do! | 02:37 |
| yoojin | MangaKaDenza, If you don't mind me saying so though, you're headed in the wrong direction buddy! Using the terminal can be hard at first but it puts the entire system closer to your fingertips without having to dig through menus. | 02:38 |
| yoojin | MangaKaDenza, If theres anything you're having trouble with try the [[ $anycommand -help $anycommand --help, or $man anycommand ]] | 02:39 |
| MangaKaDenza | oh no... | 02:39 |
| MangaKaDenza | its not that the terminal is hard | 02:40 |
| MangaKaDenza | its that i'm not supposed to have linux on this comp | 02:40 |
| MangaKaDenza | so I need to hide it | 02:40 |
| yoojin | MangaKaDenza, I used to have to do that. Anything you can do can be undone. No matter how scary you feel it is, or whoever paid for your computer, or work / parents/ etc. It can be fixed. Period. Just look at it that way and you'll be okay. | 02:41 |
| yoojin | MangaKaDenza, One thing, though, you can do, is Dual Boot install your computer, and make windows the Default choice to boot up, hide the GRUB menu, and make it so you have to hold a key to boot into linux. Bam, you're own, secret lab for anything you want to do. | 02:42 |

| fancyfetus | I have a logitech G700 gaming mouse | 03:35 |
| fancyfetus | But ubuntu does not even recognize the extra buttons | 03:35 |
| fancyfetus | running xinput | 03:35 |
| fancyfetus | returns two id's for the mouse. One with 7 buttons, and one with 24. | 03:36 |
| fancyfetus | The mouse does not have that many. | 03:36 |
| yoojin | nevyn, http://pastebin.com/RNrQMju1 this is the output | 03:36 |
| fancyfetus | if you cound scrolling, it has 15 | 03:36 |
| EvilBlob | With Easystrokes I was able to bind to the extra buttons on my G400 | 03:36 |
| timmm42 | fahadash: less /etc/os-release | 03:36 |
| EvilBlob | xinput lists 2 inputs with 11 and 14 buttons | 03:37 |
| fancyfetus | EvilBlob, I have easystroke, but it doesn't recognize the other buttons. | 03:37 |
| EvilBlob | Hmm | 03:37 |
| fancyfetus | If i run xev, i get no output when clicking the extra buttons. | 03:37 |
| fahadash | I did ls -R *release* from the / and nothing found | 03:38 |
| EvilBlob | I do. That's odd | 03:38 |
| yoojin | nevyn, brb. (5min) | 03:38 |
| fahadash | Its a NAS Media server, May be I should ask it on generic linux channel | 03:38 |
| fancyfetus | Did you have the buttons mapped in logitech Gaming Software on a windows computer? | 03:38 |
| EvilBlob | Yea, that may have something to do with it | 03:39 |
| EvilBlob | Do you have a Windows install? | 03:39 |
| fancyfetus | What did you map them too? | 03:39 |
| fancyfetus | Nah, just ubuntu | 03:39 |
| fancyfetus | I have access to windows though. | 03:39 |
| EvilBlob | I have one set to ctrl+w and one set to a back button | 03:40 |
| EvilBlob | The back button works without Easystrokes, but ctrl+w does not | 03:40 |
| fancyfetus | hmm | 03:40 |
| EvilBlob | Does your mouse have DPI increase/decrease buttons? Do those work? | 03:41 |
| fancyfetus | I guess I could set the buttons to increase and decrease dpi | 03:41 |
| fancyfetus | But I've unassigned all buttons. | 03:41 |

| Fervicus_ | Well in this case my problem was knowing which ppa to add from that list and how to do it. | 04:48 |
| Fervicus_ | My original problem was finding a way to grab the latest vim | 04:48 |
| dr_willis | i think there should be a ppa for the latest vim. | 04:48 |
| dubone | whoops ... can someone help me figure out chroot'd sftp? I am able to login with my new user but not able to upload files nor view mount -bind directories. | 04:49 |
| dr_willis | Or to install all pacakges needed to compile vim you can use the 'sudo apt-get build-deps vim' command (if vim is the package name) | 04:49 |
| wilee-nilee | dubone, does the new user have admin access? | 04:49 |
| dubone | wilee-nilee>no, they are a standard user and in a group named sftpusers | 04:50 |
| dubone | wilee-nilee>I am in the admin group and can access the entire directory structure | 04:50 |
| wilee-nilee | dubone, I'm not familiar with that however a chroot needs a root access. | 04:50 |

| dubone | Has anyone here done SFTP with OpenSSH? I guess I could try with VSFTPD like the ubuntu docs recommend. I figured if OpenSSH had it built in there was no reason to add another layer of "muck" to get the job done. | 04:54 |
| Ari-Yang | lets say I run uname -r && lspci | grep VGA in terminal... how do I get it to print the output on one line instead of 2 separate output lines? | 04:55 |
| chaz68 | dubone: I installed SSH on my Raspberry Pi running debian. SFTP with Filezilla worked right out of the box.... | 04:56 |
| chaz68 | Once you have SSH, I think SFTP pretty much just works as it just uses your SSH key. Someone more technical may be able to describe more. | 04:56 |
| chaz68 | I found if I could ssh into a box, I could SFTP. | 04:57 |

| chaz68 | dubone: If it's beyond administrative access and you're giving access to standard users / guests, I may suggest a more robust setup using FTP with Explicit Security. Lots of guides on the net for that. | 05:05 |

| dubone | chaz68: thank you | 05:05 |
| reisio | Ejemy: probably UEFI | 05:06 |
| chaz68 | I have a setup at work (Windows shop) that uses CrushFTP. They have built-in implicit, explicit, and SFTP capabilities. Pretty slick if you're lazy and if you don't want to edit a whole bunch of config files and install big load of keys and stuff. | 05:06 |
| Ejemy | Yeah, this is the first I'm hearing of UEFI and I'm not sure what I'm doing when messing around with that. | 05:07 |
| irssi-mike | Ejemy: my asus after i change the priority requires me to hold esc at bios to choose the device i want regardless of order | 05:07 |
| chaz68 | CrushFTP works with linux, mac, windows and is pretty cheap. But it does require Java. | 05:07 |

| ImQ009 | I'm gonna need to take the laptop with me, because I'm gonna need it | 05:09 |
| reisio | ImQ009: why not just close the lid | 05:09 |
| ImQ009 | Because I don't know how long it's gonna take and how much of the battery it will drain | 05:10 |
| reisio | seem like things you'd want to know when owning a laptop :p | 05:10 |
| reisio | you can probably suspend the process | 05:11 |
| ImQ009 | The update process is already taking 40 minutes | 05:11 |
| ImQ009 | And it's about 60% done | 05:11 |
| reisio | just hibernating the device (suspend to disk) would probably be fine, though, but don't quote me on that | 05:11 |
| irssi-mike | Ejemy: I hear ya, asus has some hidden options. I bought mine used and apparently i can recover by tapping f9 but that's not on the splash screen anywhere | 05:11 |
| ImQ009 | How do you susped to disk though? | 05:12 |
| ilcondor20 | win vista | 05:12 |
| reisio | you would have to have known the answer to that question ahead of time :) | 05:12 |
| reisio | if you have ever suspended your laptop / put it to sleep | 05:12 |
| reisio | and the disks stopped spinning | 05:12 |
| reisio | that probably is enough | 05:12 |
| ilcondor20 | cerco win vista | 05:12 |
| Ejemy | irssi-mike: well I'm trying to install ubuntu on my harddrive currently through wubi (I think) and I'll see how that turns out. | 05:13 |
| ImQ009 | reisio, I run Ubuntu from an USB, I have no HDD :D | 05:13 |
| reisio | ImQ009: you got your install media? | 05:13 |
| ImQ009 | It's pretty freaking slow | 05:13 |
| ImQ009 | install media? You mean the thing I installed the OS from? | 05:13 |
| reisio | yes | 05:14 |
| ImQ009 | Yes, I have it | 05:14 |
| reisio | then even if turning off the box breaks something, you can fix it | 05:14 |
| ImQ009 | Shit. I pressed something and HexChat made a new window | 05:14 |
| ImQ009 | I hate that because I don't know what I pressed | 05:14 |
| irssi-mike | Ejemy: wubi shouldnt require you to change boot priority i don't think | 05:14 |
| reisio | ImQ009: ctrl+i | 05:14 |
| ImQ009 | Oh, thanks | 05:15 |
| reisio | everyone hates that | 05:15 |
| ImQ009 | I don't know how suspend to disk is gonna work though :D It's quite a slow pendrive | 05:16 |

| danny | I installed Wine, which i guess installed ttfmstcorefonts or whatever that is, which installs Arial and the other basic web fonts, but i'm noticing Arial is vertically smushed compared to other operating systems. | 05:39 |
| danny | I confirmed that this is Firefox and Chrome. | 05:39 |
| danny | Any ideas? | 05:39 |
| cfhowlett | danny, wine doesn't install fonts ... | 05:40 |
| danny | i must have installed the microsoft fonts myself cfhowlett | 05:40 |
| ampysphr | Guys whats the easiest way to install Kdesktop on 12.04 | 05:40 |
| cfhowlett | danny, indeed | 05:40 |
| cfhowlett | ampysphr, sudo apt-get install kdxe | 05:40 |
| danny | any ideas as to why arial is "vertically smushed". i dont know how else to phrase that cfhowlett | 05:41 |
| ampysphr | cfhowlett: seriously thats it ... awesome thanks | 05:41 |
| cfhowlett | danny, in firefox preferences: content: advanced : monospaced effects the display of fonts | 05:41 |
| danny | i use chrome cfhowlett | 05:41 |
| cfhowlett | danny similar settting in chrome somewhere | 05:42 |
| kostkon | wine has msttcorefonts are a dep i think | 05:42 |
| kostkon | as* | 05:42 |
| cfhowlett | kostkon, you might be right! | 05:42 |
| kostkon | y | 05:43 |
| danny | cfhowlett, im not sure which one it is http://ubuntuone.com/4tfqwHR3i99rIZW8KhnaBD | 05:47 |
| cfhowlett | danny, ask on the chrome support site. I use FF. | 05:49 |
| Samuel | someone please teach me how to get ssh so that i scan smtps | 05:52 |
| danny | so you're saying changing the monospace font to the one os x and windows uses will display arial the way i want it to in Firefox, cfhowlett ? | 05:52 |
| cfhowlett | danny, try it and see. where ever the setting is, it's definitely font display related. could be a system setting, but seems more likely that it's a browser specific setting | 05:53 |

| aeon-ltd | wrong f? | 07:02 |
| aeon-ltd | me-1: it's on the site | 07:03 |
| Mocque | If that wont help you try use this in terminal | 07:03 |
| Mocque | sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=xx | 07:03 |
| Mocque | where xx = brightness level | 07:03 |
| Mocque | from 00 to 100 | 07:03 |
| Mocque | eg : sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=60 | 07:03 |
| greenut1 | i did... its already updated. | 07:03 |
| aeon-ltd | me-1: find the one you want http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads | 07:03 |
| Calinou | greenut1: ls /sys/class/backlight | 07:03 |

| me-1 | aeon-ltd, thank you | 07:04 |
| greenut1 | which one lol | 07:04 |

| Mocque | try both | 07:05 |
| Calinou | setpci is last resort I guess | 07:05 |
| greenut1 | haha okay very funny :) | 07:05 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:05 |
| Mocque | Coz i had the same problem before, and I overcome with that code | 07:05 |
| Calinou | did backlight control work already, greenut1 | 07:05 |
| greenut1 | ok lol will try Calinou method first | 07:06 |
| linuxuz3r | how do i reconfigure grub | 07:06 |
| wilee-nilee | linuxuz3r, what is the end goal with grub? | 07:06 |
| Calinou | it won't work, greenut1 | 07:06 |
| greenut1 | Calinou: it says ale@ale-iMac:~$ ls /sys/class/backlight | 07:06 |
| greenut1 | acpi_video0 | 07:06 |
| Calinou | it only tells me which backlights are available | 07:06 |
| Calinou | oh ok then | 07:06 |
| Calinou | try this: echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness | 07:07 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:07 |
| aeon-ltd | Calinou: wouldn't the value 0 be off? | 07:07 |
| greenut1 | Calinou: i did... it said nothing | 07:07 |
| varunendra | Calinou, 0 is not necessarily the correct value for all cards as far as I know | 07:08 |
| Calinou | no, not off | 07:08 |
| Calinou | but it's just quite lowered | 07:08 |
| Calinou | (usually to a decent value :P) | 07:08 |
| greenut1 | it didnt change anything | 07:08 |
| aeon-ltd | ahh yeah iirc imacs don't have an off brightness settings, only macbooks | 07:09 |
| Calinou | :/ | 07:09 |
| greenut1 | its on 100%... even it shows up that its increasing or decreasing brightness but i see on my screen very bright like at 100% like before | 07:09 |
| greenut1 | oh seriously? it sucks man | 07:09 |
| greenut1 | poor my eyes... lol | 07:09 |
| Calinou | they do have brightness settings | 07:10 |
| aeon-ltd | you just can't have it off | 07:10 |
| varunendra | greenut1, what does this tell you - "cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness" | 07:10 |
| aeon-ltd | as in no power going to leds | 07:10 |
| greenut1 | ok but how to decrease brightness at least? | 07:10 |
| greenut1 | ok hd on varunendra | 07:10 |
| Wiz_KeeD | what dos sudo apt-get update first do? | 07:10 |
| greenut1 | i did.... | 07:11 |
| Calinou | it updates repository lists | 07:11 |
| greenut1 | says nothing. | 07:11 |
| Calinou | it should say something... just a number | 07:11 |
| Calinou | aeon-ltd: on any screen, you can't | 07:11 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: nothing. | 07:11 |
| Calinou | but 0 should be pretty low | 07:11 |
| varunendra | greenut1, and this - "ls /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/" ? | 07:11 |
| cfhowlett | !who | 07:12 |
| ubottu | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 07:12 |

| greenut1 | bl_power device power type | 07:12 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: it said that | 07:12 |
| varunendra | greenut1, then probably you (or I) did some mistake in the previous command | 07:13 |
| greenut1 | oh? ok, what previous command do you refer? | 07:13 |
| cfhowlett | y | 07:13 |
| varunendra | greenut1, once more please - "ls /sys/class/backlight" | 07:14 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:14 |
| varunendra | greenut1, is there only one object in the output? | 07:14 |
| varunendra | acpi_video0 ? | 07:14 |
| greenut1 | acpi_video0 | 07:14 |
| greenut1 | said that | 07:14 |
| greenut1 | yes | 07:14 |
| varunendra | greenut1, the max_brightness file not having any value and no other videos indicate a possible acpi issue. Hold on, or try the other suggestion that was offered previously | 07:16 |
| greenut1 | when i execute this "cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness" it says nothing. | 07:16 |
| greenut1 | hmmm | 07:16 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:17 |
| varunendra | greenut1, try another one - "cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/actual_brightness" - does it return anything? | 07:17 |
| greenut1 | ok hd on | 07:18 |
| greenut1 | it said 1 | 07:19 |
| greenut1 | sorry and when i run this: cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness it said 15 | 07:20 |
| linuxuz3r | ok | 07:20 |
| greenut1 | but on my screen it stick on 100% | 07:20 |
| greenut1 | very bright like before | 07:20 |
| greenut1 | it doesnt change anything | 07:20 |
| greenut1 | when i use mocque method sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=60 it says " setpci: Warning: No devices selected for "F4.B=60". | 07:23 |
| greenut1 | " | 07:23 |
| varunendra | greenut1, try Calinou's suggestion, with a slightly different value - "echo 8 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness" - any change ? | 07:23 |
| greenut1 | k | 07:23 |
| greenut1 | it said 8 | 07:24 |
| Calinou | all the PCs I had used brightness values 0-10 | 07:24 |
| Calinou | 10 being default | 07:24 |
| Calinou | so I'm used to using 0 | 07:24 |
| greenut1 | hmm will try 0 then | 07:24 |
| greenut1 | same thing | 07:24 |
| greenut1 | nothing happenned | 07:24 |
| varunendra | greenut1, your is not within 0-10 range, as you saw - max_brightness is 15, not 10 | 07:25 |

| greenut1 | No LSB modules are available. | 07:33 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:33 |
| varunendra | Calinou, the correct command is lsb_release -a | 07:33 |
| greenut1 | it already had | 07:34 |

| cathode | have a bit of a quandry here... i am deploying two virtual machines that will be accessed by fairly old HP thin clients in my house. The thin clients ONLY support RDP as a connection protocol... the VMs are running ubuntu 12.04 LTS and i installed xrdp which works fine except that xrdp doesn't support sound output | 07:38 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:38 |
| Dr_Feelgud | cfhowlett, smw94: thanks, i have that already, i need something like miro | 07:39 |
| cathode | what other options are there for making a linux box act as a RDP server? | 07:39 |
| varunendra | greenut1, don't forget the double quotes around "acpi_backlight=vendor" | 07:39 |
| greenut1 | fyi there is two lines: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 07:39 |
| greenut1 | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" | 07:39 |
| greenut1 | im changing that as u said hd on.... | 07:39 |
| Dr_Feelgud | but miro is not good with flash | 07:39 |
| varunendra | greenut1, only the one that is blank at present - GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" | 07:39 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:40 |
| greenut1 | changed. should i save it? | 07:40 |
| varunendra | greenut1, please show us the current line so we can be sure it is correct | 07:40 |
| aeon-ltd | bombev: it lets you create a file which is an encrpyted container for storing files | 07:40 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:40 |
| greenut1 | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_backlight=vendor" | 07:40 |
| greenut1 | copied it from there | 07:41 |
| varunendra | :) | 07:41 |
| varunendra | greenut1, ok, save and close it | 07:41 |
| pandaroot-gama | what is the difference between ubuntu server 12.04 and desktop edition ? | 07:41 |
| greenut1 | saved, closed it. brb | 07:41 |
| varunendra | greenut1, now do - "sudo update-grub" | 07:41 |
| smw94 | Dr_Feelgud, i think youtube-dl is good enough for me | 07:41 |
| greenut1 | ok | 07:41 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, desktop is for normal, everyday users. server is for backend server deployment | 07:41 |

| greenut1 | after " sudo update-grub" | 07:42 |
| Dr_Feelgud | smw94: does youtube-dl has a good features? like rss channels? | 07:43 |
| greenut1 | fyi remember i have OS X and this Ubuntu dual boot. | 07:43 |
| greenut1 | and reefind instaled as bootloader | 07:43 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, i want to create customized ubuntu server disk, i am using this guide->https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch | 07:43 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, can't help with --- no experience to draw from. | 07:43 |
| pandaroot-gama | but how can i create ubuntu server disk as there is nothing mention that following will help in creating desktop or server disk ? | 07:44 |
| varunendra | greenut1, is it directly booting Ubuntu or have you installed grub on Ubuntu's partition? | 07:44 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, do you actually need a server? | 07:44 |
| me-1 | hi...does Ubuntu 12.04.3 supports dula booting using wubi...? | 07:44 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, i have a server but i need to customized it from scratch. | 07:44 |
| cfhowlett | !mini|pandaroot-gama, | 07:45 |
| smw94 | Dr_Feelgud, no it doesnt, i dont use rss much | 07:45 |
| ubottu | pandaroot-gama,: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 07:45 |
| greenut1 | hmmm i installed first reefind, then i did install ubuntu along side with OS X | 07:45 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, mini might be worth a look then | 07:45 |
| greenut1 | then when i restarted it did boot on reefind... with both OS | 07:45 |
| greenut1 | OS X and Ubuntu | 07:45 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, that can be helpful. | 07:45 |
| Dr_Feelgud | smw94: thanks | 07:45 |
| varunendra | greenut1, do you get grub menu at any stage? If not you'll need to find a way to add the above "acpi_backlight=vendor" line in the kernel boot line. | 07:45 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, for desktop the name of the installer is ubiquity what's the name of the installer for server installations ? | 07:46 |
| greenut1 | oh yes it shows up grub menu | 07:46 |
| pandaroot-gama | i just know that it's debian based. | 07:46 |
| greenut1 | then i click Ubuntu... to boot after reefind | 07:46 |
| prp-e | Hi guys. When Ubuntu 13.10 Beta1 is released ?! | 07:46 |
| me-1 | Does Ubuntu12.4.3 has Wubi dual-boot option | 07:46 |
| cfhowlett | !ubuntu_server|pandaroot-gama, as you're doing server things ... best to ask in the #ubuntu-server channel | 07:46 |
| greenut1 | hmmmm i see | 07:47 |
| cfhowlett | !when|me-1, | 07:47 |
| pandaroot-gama | may be d-i. | 07:47 |
| cfhowlett | !isitiout|me-1, | 07:47 |
| greenut1 | varunendra, i see what u mean. | 07:47 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, ok | 07:47 |
| cfhowlett | me-1, next month | 07:47 |
| me-1 | cfhowlett, Please explain | 07:47 |
| cfhowlett | me-1, you can download wubi separately ... if you must. bear in mind that wubi is for TESTING not for long-term installation | 07:47 |
| smw94 | me-1, why use wubi instead of live booting ? | 07:48 |
| cfhowlett | me-1, when is 13.10 out? In 2013 (13) Octobe (10) | 07:48 |
| greenut1 | vanunendra: looks like i messed up it, right? | 07:48 |
| greenut1 | should i have used refit instead? | 07:48 |
| varunendra | greenut1, it should be fine. What does this show - "cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | grep acpi_backlight" | 07:49 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, thanks for the help | 07:49 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, best of luck | 07:49 |
| greenut1 | vanunendra: it said nothing there. | 07:49 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, thank you sir :) | 07:49 |
| me-1 | cfhowlett, A friend of mine is very innterested in Ubuntu and asking to install it on his windows 7 laptop but I am not sure he would like it so I want to dual-boot so he can remove if he does not like | 07:50 |
| varunendra | greenut1, and "cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg" - does it return anything? Or is the entire file is missing? | 07:50 |
| cfhowlett | me-1, better option: install virtualbox in windows. put ubuntu inside a virtualbox. | 07:50 |
| greenut1 | brb | 07:51 |
| prp-e | !stfu | 07:51 |
| ubottu | Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 07:51 |
| me-1 | I have 2 options Virtualbox or wubi . but virtualbox will give false impression of being ubuntu slow | 07:51 |
| greenut1 | oh yes it said many things fulfillling that screen | 07:51 |
| aeon-ltd | me-1: wubi is not much better with it's fake filesystem | 07:52 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: yes, said many things on the screen. | 07:52 |
| cfhowlett | me-1, and wubi is way more trouble than it's worth ... but if he's got at least 4 gigs of ram, he shouldn't notice it. that said, try lubuntu or xubuntu in virtualbox. both are lightweight alternatives to ubuntu | 07:52 |

| babinlonston | I want to access my PC Graphically from remote | 07:54 |
| me-1 | cfhowlett, He has got 2GB of ram , I will grant 1 GB to Ubuntu in virtual box and if he likes it I will do a clean install of ubuntu | 07:54 |
| varunendra | greenut1, did you copy-paste this - "cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | grep acpi_backlight" - without the last quote mark ? | 07:54 |
| cfhowlett | me-1, 2 gigs is low. I'd suggest l/x/ubuntu instead | 07:54 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: yes i did. it showed many lines... a long line. | 07:55 |
| babinlonston | My Home is Far From were im working , Now MY PC is On there in home but how can i connect to my PC ? | 07:55 |
| me-1 | cfhowlett, well they are not as good-looking | 07:55 |

| aeon-ltd | me-1: it can be | 07:56 |

| varunendra | greenut1, what does this say - cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | grep quiet | 07:56 |
| aeon-ltd | babinlonston: if it is running a vnc server, then get a client and log in | 07:56 |
| babinlonston | aeon-ltd: but my IP is not an Static IP :) | 07:56 |

| aeon-ltd | babinlonston: then you'll need to find it out everytime you want to connect | 07:57 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, the only difference between ubuntu 12.04 server and desktop is the kernel right ? the packages are same for both versions ? | 07:57 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: said linux/boot/vmlinuz-3.8.0-30-generic root=UUID=b59bd4b4-5a17-41cd-9120-79a740392a1c ro quiet splash $vt_handoff | 07:57 |

| varunendra | greenut1, got it :) | 07:58 |
| greenut1 | oh lol :) | 07:58 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, no no and no. server will install only what you tell it. if you don't specify, say, office apps .. no office apps. | 07:58 |
| varunendra | greenut1, if you get the grub menu, you can try to manually edit the boot line at boot time by pressing "E" --> add the parameter --> Ctrl-X to boot | 07:59 |
| dr_willis | i thought the server and desktop use the same kernel these days also. ;) but i rarely mess with server | 07:59 |
| === Utility is now known as Guest39683 | ||
| greenut1 | varunendra: how to get the grub menu? | 07:59 |
| Calinou | there are some patches for battery optimization on desktop | 08:00 |
| varunendra | greenut1, you said you see grub menu at booting time? | 08:00 |
| greenut1 | ohhh yes | 08:00 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: right on, but to edit it... hmmm will try. | 08:00 |
| jacobtapp | Is there a special channel for help or is this it? | 08:01 |
| Myrtti | this is it | 08:01 |
| cfhowlett | jacobtapp, this is it. | 08:01 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: u mean after reefind bootloader, right? | 08:01 |
| greenut1 | then get that grub menu..? | 08:01 |
| greenut1 | that shows the following line: Ubuntu, Something else with 3 lines which i dont recall. wow Im getting old!!! lol | 08:02 |
| jacobtapp | So, I installed 13.04 and 13.10 just fine but heard 12.04 had better nvidia driver support since it was LTS. Only problem is that after it installs in normal GUI it boots to a black screen with the drum sound | 08:02 |
| Calinou | no, it does not, jacobtapp | 08:02 |
| Calinou | 13.04 has newer drivers | 08:03 |
| Axylus | is there a good reason why the Ubuntu installer creates the swap partition as a logical partition? | 08:03 |
| Calinou | what's your graphics card, jacobtapp? | 08:03 |
| cfhowlett | jacobtapp, and 13.10 is still in beta ... | 08:03 |
| jnhghy | I'd like to remove the closing button for a specific aplication only (the x from top bar) for rdesktop, first of all I'd like to know if this is possible, if it is...some search query for google that will give me this type of info will defenetly help. | 08:03 |
| jacobtapp | GTX 780m | 08:03 |
| varunendra | greenut1, we can try directly editing the grub.cfg file, but adding that parameter temporarily at boot time would be safer (for testing) | 08:03 |
| Calinou | jacobtapp: don't install the driver normally for optimus | 08:03 |
| Calinou | you have to use bumblebee | 08:03 |
| varunendra | greenut1, basically, you have to add "acpi_backlight=vendor" (without quotes) before "quiet splash" in the line that starts with "linux /boot....." and ends with "quiet splash" | 08:04 |
| aeon-ltd | Axylus: so it doesn't use up the limit of primaries? | 08:04 |
| jacobtapp | Well it won't even boot | 08:04 |
| aeon-ltd | Axylus: honestly i have no real idea | 08:05 |
| jacobtapp | Or X doesnt startup out of the box | 08:05 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: i was looking at Software & Updates.... there is a options to change it.... Using Z.Org X server.... or Using Video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators ...Using Video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators from fglrx-updates.... if i change those options will it help? | 08:05 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, yeah i understood that, what i meant was in apt/source.list the repos are same in server as well as desktop edition ? so the only main difference would be the tweaked kernel of the server edition. | 08:05 |
| Axylus | aeon-ltd, hmm… I'm not sure either. I was just curious :) | 08:05 |
| Calinou | it's X.org not Z.org | 08:05 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: ok, will do it. | 08:06 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, repos are the same | 08:06 |
| Calinou | varunendra: don't edit grub.cfg | 08:06 |
| greenut1 | Calinou: I'm getting old... remember. lol | 08:06 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, so that means only the kernel is different. | 08:06 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, that's my understanding. | 08:06 |
| greenut1 | was trying to type fast because the pace here is crazy. | 08:06 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, ok, than let me research more into it. | 08:07 |
| jacobtapp | Any other suggestions? | 08:07 |
| abdel | abdul | 08:07 |
| Calinou | jacobtapp: reinstall ubuntu, don't install the nvidia driver normally, use bumblebee | 08:07 |
| Calinou | alternatively: go to the BIOS, disable the IGP | 08:07 |
| jacobtapp | Calinou: it didnt start up without nvidia installed | 08:07 |
| Calinou | (can reduce battery life) | 08:07 |
| Calinou | ah | 08:07 |
| greenut1 | Ok, will do it, Varunendra. Will contact you when i back, maybe tomorrow? will you be around? | 08:08 |
| Calinou | well you should try disabling the IGP in the BIOS if possible | 08:08 |
| jacobtapp | not an option | 08:08 |
| Calinou | bumblebee will be better for your battery life, but performance will be quite lower than directly using the card | 08:08 |
| jacobtapp | I understand that but I cant even get 12.04 to boot with or without nvidia. 13.04 worked fine out of the box | 08:09 |
| Calinou | then use 13.04 | 08:10 |
| jacobtapp | But 13.04 doesnt offer as much support for nvidia drivers. I dont even see 319 on apt-get | 08:10 |
| greenut1 | varunendra: my wife is mad at me... i need to go. will contact with you tmrw if you're around. | 08:11 |
| greenut1 | varunendra, thank you for trying to help me. | 08:12 |
| greenut1 | Calinou: thank you too. | 08:12 |
| Calinou | jacobtapp: you can use PPAs | 08:12 |
| Calinou | xorg-edgers | 08:12 |
| DarkLord | lssfdsa | 08:13 |
| DarkLord | sry friends. | 08:13 |
| Calinou | it's ok | 08:13 |
| jacobtapp | Calinou: what does that mean? | 08:14 |
| Calinou | Personal Package Archives | 08:15 |
| Calinou | basically, it adds more installable packages, but these are unsupported | 08:15 |
| jacobtapp | This is why people dont use linux lol | 08:15 |
| jnhghy | is there a way to change the button layout for a specifc app in gnome 3? | 08:15 |
| jacobtapp | Ive been trying to get simple stuff to work for 6 hours now | 08:15 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, prob solved :D | 08:16 |
| cfhowlett | pandaroot-gama, yeah? Congrats! | 08:16 |
| Calinou | jacobtapp: they do | 08:16 |
| Calinou | you're doing things wrong, that's all :P | 08:16 |
| linuxuz3r | later guys | 08:16 |
| pandaroot-gama | cfhowlett, thanks :) | 08:16 |
| jacobtapp | Im following guides | 08:16 |
| Calinou | it's not hard to install a PPA and install a more updated driver | 08:16 |
| Calinou | however don't install the driver by hand. it breaks everything | 08:16 |
| jacobtapp | That didnt come up once in my googl searches | 08:17 |
| jacobtapp | Also, is this because im on 64 bit. I remember that use to be a big pain | 08:17 |
| survietamine | hello | 08:18 |
| Calinou | it isn't anymore :P | 08:18 |
| jacobtapp | Anyway is there a way to upgrade to 13.04 from 12.04 in command line | 08:18 |
| penos | hello | 08:18 |
| survietamine | on a 10.04 LTS, I cannot understand how to restart nfs/nis services correctly on a server | 08:18 |
| Calinou | I'd advise reinstalling :P | 08:19 |
| survietamine | on previous versions with only systemV, it was easy with nfs-common and nis in /etc/init.d/ | 08:19 |
| jonascj | jacobtapp: besides Calinou's advice: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 08:19 |
| alex_dolby | hi all.. i have an apt-mirror repo configured with system side packages | 08:19 |
| cfhowlett | jacobtapp, sudo apt-get dist-release to 12.10 then again to 13.04 clean install is recommended instead | 08:19 |
| Calinou | that works, yeah | 08:19 |
| alex_dolby | how will i create a new repo branch to put my customized debs in it | 08:19 |
| jacobtapp | well i dont have access to a computer besides this one with command line or w/e its called | 08:20 |
| alex_dolby | i know how to do in yum repo .. but i am new to apt mirror stuff | 08:20 |
| penos | hello | 08:21 |
| alex_dolby | any apt-repo experts | 08:21 |
| alex_dolby | or is there anyother channel/ room to ask apt relatd query | 08:22 |
| bazhang | how many packages alex_dolby | 08:23 |
| alex_dolby | bazhang: i have tow set of packages.. one is a bunch of customized openstack packages | 08:24 |
| alex_dolby | and another a bunch of dependencies to them | 08:24 |
| bazhang | alex_dolby, and the total number is... | 08:24 |
| alex_dolby | so i want to add two branch in my existing apt-mirror server | 08:24 |
| alex_dolby | 89 = Openstack debs | 08:24 |

| penos | no idea | 08:27 |
| dr_willis | InFlames: might want to see if pipelight has a homepage/forums/irc channe;l | 08:27 |
| penos | google maybe | 08:27 |
| jacobtapp | well dist-ugpgrade didnt work | 08:27 |

| gordonjcp | PLMg: have you got a second USB stick, with the iso on it *as a file*? | 08:33 |
| gordonjcp | Ben64: that's just one of the things that makes no sense | 08:33 |
| penos | u need mount point | 08:33 |
| gordonjcp | PLMg: why aren't you installing 12.04? | 08:33 |
| PLMg | I have only one usb stick atached | 08:33 |
| PLMg | mounted /dev/sdb1 | 08:33 |
| PLMg | sadly I need it for bigbluebutton that works only with 10.04 | 08:34 |
| nathanbz | sudo apt-get install --reinstall mod-security | 08:34 |
| nathanbz | shouldn't that force reinstall mod-security ? | 08:34 |
| nathanbz | it's not remaking the /etc/modsecurity folder with files in it :/ | 08:35 |
| InFlames | PLMg, it claims that bigbluebutton has simply not been tested on later, it's possible it's stable... | 08:35 |
| PLMg | I did try it, failed a lot | 08:35 |
| dr_willis | why are you mounting the iso image anyway? | 08:35 |
| gordonjcp | PLMg: what's bigbluebutton? | 08:35 |
| PLMg | Your installation CD-couldn't be mounted. This probably means that the CD-ROM was not in the drive. If so you can insert it and try again | 08:36 |
| InFlames | gordonjcp, voip server looks like | 08:36 |
| gordonjcp | PLMg: and, are you okay with it only working until next month? | 08:36 |
| PLMg | if u refer to security issues its fine | 08:36 |
| PLMg | bbb is a voice conference server | 08:37 |
| PLMg | so you are saying that following the guide in the page I linked earlier is a bad idea? | 08:38 |
| dr_willis | best idea may be to run it in a virtualbox vm on a supported release. | 08:38 |
| PLMg | sadly that is not possible | 08:39 |
| PLMg | need x64 arhitecture | 08:39 |
| Ben64 | virtualbox does x64... | 08:39 |
| wylde | PLMg: you can run 64 bit VMs | 08:39 |
| PLMg | hmm, now I fee lsilly | 08:39 |
| PLMg | but anyway, this pc is a bit limited, so I would like to install ubuntu on a real machine | 08:39 |
| InFlames | well at least that might make your life easier | 08:40 |
| PLMg | if I do ls /dev/sd* I get 5 drives | 08:41 |
| PLMg | in the pc there is only one hdd with 2 partitions | 08:41 |
| PLMg | I do not need the data from the hdd | 08:41 |
| dr_willis | !blkid | 08:41 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 08:41 |
| dr_willis | 'sudo blkid' may give better info PLMg | 08:42 |
| PLMg | ok, now I know I need sdb1 | 08:42 |
| PLMg | but doing mount -t iso9660 -o loop /media/usb/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso should not work for me | 08:43 |
| PLMg | like stated it the guide | 08:43 |
| PLMg | *in | 08:43 |
| dr_willis | PLMg: whats the exact command you are using? | 08:43 |
| dr_willis | if its the above.. you did a typo | 08:44 |
| PLMg | trying to do this http://www.mattkowalczyk.com/blog/?p=169 | 08:44 |
| penos | u need mount point | 08:44 |
| dr_willis | you got no space. after the /media/usb /path/to/the/iso | 08:44 |
| penos | in ur command | 08:44 |

| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 08:44 |
| dr_willis | i still dont know why you are mounting the iso file | 08:45 |
| PLMg | it said so in the guide :) | 08:45 |
| gordonjcp | PLMg: the instructions on that page make no sense | 08:45 |
| gordonjcp | PLMg: just create a USB stick and install off that | 08:45 |
| PLMg | I am using a usb stick :( | 08:46 |
| dr_willis | the pendrivelinux web site has dozens of guides and tools to make a bootable usb flash drive | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | PLMg: then you haven't created it correctly | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | PLMg: download the iso, dd it onto the stick and boot | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | it can't be any simpler | 08:46 |
| PLMg | I used the one from ubuntu, using lili to make a bootable flash drive | 08:46 |
| dr_willis | if hes uising 10.x can he use dd? | 08:46 |

| nurvxx | is ubuntu nsa backdoored ? | 08:55 |
| Ben64 | nurvxx: no | 08:55 |
| dr_willis | you mount the iso to a folder PLMg the folder must exist beforhand. | 08:55 |
| ActionParsnip | nurvxx: no, where did you read that? | 08:56 |
| dr_willis | PLMg: that command looks correct to me... try it and sdee | 08:56 |
| PLMg | ok, how do I determine myimage.iso | 08:56 |
| nurvxx | http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message1538770/pg2 it says here | 08:56 |
| nurvxx | it is | 08:56 |
| dr_willis | PLMg: err its the file name/path to your iso file | 08:56 |
| ActionParsnip | PLMg: sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom | 08:57 |
| dr_willis | PLMg: you dont understand linux paths and file names? | 08:57 |
| Ben64 | nurvxx: its not, and its offtopic here | 08:57 |
| PLMg | basicly yes, but I am confused since I made a bootable usb stick from a iso file | 08:58 |
| PLMg | I think that the iso file is unpacked into the usb stick | 08:58 |
| dr_willis | PLMg: i dont really get what you are trying to do-- if you allready have a bootable usb made | 08:58 |
| ActionParsnip | nurvxx: that doesnt say anything about a backdoor | 08:58 |
| dr_willis | you dont just unpack an iso to a usb and have it 'be' a bootable system | 08:58 |
| PLMg | following the installer i get: Your installation CD-couldn't be mounted. This probably means that the CD-ROM was not in the drive. If so you can insert it and try again | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip | PLMg: if you wnat to make a bootable USB stick you need an app like unetbootin | 08:59 |
| gordonjcp | or just use dd | 08:59 |
| gordonjcp | since unetbootin doesn't work very well | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip | or usb-creator-gtk | 08:59 |
| dr_willis | or any of the dozen tools/guides on the pendrive linux site. | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip | or 1 2 3 creator from pendrivelinux | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip | lots of options :)P | 09:00 |
| gordonjcp | I've never had usb-creator-gtk work for me at all | 09:00 |
| PLMg | ok... but since I already have a bootable usb stick, can I not continue from here? | 09:00 |
| gordonjcp | you don't have a bootable USB stick | 09:00 |
| gordonjcp | you have some random thing that doesn't work | 09:00 |
| PLMg | k, I will remake it | 09:00 |
| dr_willis | PLMg: you got one thats bbootalbe.. so whats the issue? i think we are missing somthing. ;) | 09:00 |
| dr_willis | Oh - its a broken-bootable usb ;) | 09:01 |
| dr_willis | make it with a better tool | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Fli-c: also remember to | 09:01 |
| ObrienDave | nurvxx... another government conspiracy idiot heard from LMAO | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Fli-c: MD5 test the ISO you downloaded | 09:01 |
| dr_willis | I like that Multi-system tool from pendrivelinux - lets me put a lot of bootable cd's on a single usb ;) | 09:02 |

| damel | looks like the driver is installed but I do not see any way to connect with a wifi connection | 09:09 |
| damel | almost like it is not installed | 09:09 |
| damel | I have a Qualcomm Atheros AR8151, and I installed the propriatary drivers in software updates->additional drivers (now I dont see it listed there anymore) | 09:11 |
| prp-e | Is Ubuntu 13.10 beta released?! | 09:11 |
| damel | yup | 09:11 |
| wilee-nilee | no | 09:11 |
| wilee-nilee | doh beta | 09:11 |
| damel | yes...beta 2 | 09:12 |
| damel | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/13.10/beta-2/ | 09:12 |
| Ben64 | support and discussion of 13.10 in #ubuntu+1 until actual release | 09:12 |
| damel | for me I'm talking about 13.04 for the wifi problem | 09:13 |
| toxic_gamer | someone posted a graphic some time back showing the overlaps and lengths of LTS releases where can i find an updated one of those? | 09:13 |
| Ben64 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases | 09:13 |
| dr_willis | perhaps hit up the google images search feature? | 09:13 |
| dr_willis | its only with the last release that theres been any changs hasent it? | 09:14 |
| kassy | bonjour | 09:15 |
| varunendra | damel, I think AR8151 is an ethernet card, not wireless. Are you sure? | 09:16 |
| Alice-99 | hi, can I use Tor/vidalia such that all connections to outside is through tor | 09:16 |
| varunendra | damel, yup, definitely an ethernet card. Not wifi | 09:17 |
| damel | varunendra : I think your right...shoot | 09:17 |
| damel | that would explain why it seems installed...it is and it works !! | 09:18 |
| varunendra | damel, what does this say - "lspci -nn | grep 0280" | 09:18 |
| damel | sorry about that | 09:18 |
| varunendra | damel, the full output, it'll be a single line | 09:19 |
| toxic_gamer | if 13.10 is in beta how much time is left before we see 14.04 beta? | 09:19 |
| dr_willis | toxic_gamer: the version # is the date of release.. year/month | 09:19 |
| dr_willis | so 2014, 4th month for 14.04 | 09:19 |
| DJones | toxic_gamer: Probably about 6 months before a 14.04 beta comes out | 09:19 |

| ObrienDave | pandaroot-gama... hmm, out of ideas. sorry | 10:15 |
| wylde | sharpshooter: is openssh-server installed and running on the system you're trying to connect to? If so you may have to check your router settings as the wlan may be blocked from accessing devices on the "wired" lan. | 10:16 |
| MrJones_ | as soon as I pick download installer components it blanks out to the purple background with no information to what is happening at all... what should I do? TTY access works fine, but I'm not sure how to unhang this thing. also it happens every time, I tried again and same blankness when attempting "download installer components" | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | MrJones_: what GPU do you use? | 10:18 |
| flxmmr | ubuntu 13.10 wants to introduce mir, which should translate in nonexistent driver support afaik (at least for the unfortunate ones getting a mir installation) | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | flxmmr: ask in #ubuntu+1 pre-releases are not supported here | 10:18 |
| MrJones_ | ActionParsnip: no idea, why would the text mode install care? let me google.. intel 885 gme apparently | 10:18 |
| MrJones_ | it's a samsung p35 with a pentium m | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | MrJones_: try the boot option: nomodeset | 10:19 |
| MrJones_ | how can I specify boot options for the usb minimal boot? do I need to pick command line install? | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | !nomodeset | MrJones_ | 10:20 |
| ubottu | MrJones_: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 10:20 |
| MrJones_ | ActionParsnip: I don't have a live cd or an installed os | 10:21 |
| albert_ | download it from the web | 10:22 |
| sharpshooter | wylde, openssh-server is installed in my system and am using ssh over wifi | 10:22 |
| MrJones_ | albert_: I'm intentionally using the mini network iso | 10:23 |
| MrJones_ | because this computer is non-pae | 10:23 |
| MrJones_ | so does download installer components fire up the X server? or why would it hang exactly at that stage | 10:23 |
| MrJones_ | anyway for nomodeset, I'm just not sure where to specify this on a minimal text install.. | 10:24 |
| MrJones_ | the post just covers livecd and installed systems | 10:24 |
| MrJones_ | if there is a live cd for non-pae, I might use that one. a blog post pointed me to the mini iso because there is one for non-pae systems | 10:25 |
| irssi-mike | MrJones_: i used the alternate CD then hit i think f5 to specify the base system only, is that hel? | 10:27 |
| irssi-mike | *help | 10:27 |
| platzhirsch | I unlocked my second HDD from the Unity Launcher, rebooting did not make it reappear, how can I add it? | 10:28 |
| MrJones_ | irssi-mike: at which point did you hit f5 | 10:28 |
| wylde | sharpshooter: can you ping the machine you want to connect to? | 10:28 |
| MrJones_ | I cannot even download the installer components, I doubt I can specify that I just want the base system or anything else | 10:28 |
| MrJones_ | also I just tried command line expert install, same thing: blanks to violet when I pick download installer components | 10:28 |
| MrJones_ | please note the TTY still works and so does ctrl+c (brings me to black blankness instead), it doesn't look like a graphics driver hang | 10:29 |
| MrJones_ | also I still got a text cursor as if I'm still in text mode | 10:29 |
| MrJones_ | it just doesn't show anything, so I can't continue with the install | 10:29 |
| wylde | sharpshooter: try both with hostname and ip to see if you get the same result. | 10:29 |
| irssi-mike | MrJones_: before install ubuntu | 10:29 |
| sharpshooter | wylde, ok | 10:29 |
| irssi-mike | MrJones_: No, I think it was f4, sorry | 10:31 |

| MrJones_ | so is someone familiar with the text install around? I would really love to continue, but with the download installer components stage blanking out (TTY still works, I'm still in text mode, doesn't look like graphics mode/gpu hang!) I'm unable to proceed... command line install doesn't work either | 10:34 |
| OerHeks | !nomodeset | 10:34 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 10:34 |
| MrJones_ | OerHeks: you did read what I said, right? | 10:35 |
| irssi-mike | MrJones_: the alternate cd is a text mode isntall | 10:35 |
| MrJones_ | I don't think it applies because I'm still in text mode. if it DOES apply (nomodeset), I don't know how to set it because there is no point in text mode where it allows me to specify kernel options (or I can't find it). | 10:35 |
| bing0719 | think you | 10:35 |
| OerHeks | nomodeset is only needed when your gui does not come up | 10:36 |
| MrJones_ | I'm in text mode install, there is no graphical gui | 10:36 |
| MrJones_ | or at least I don't think there is supposed to be one at any point | 10:36 |
| bing0719 | ubottu: think you! | 10:36 |
| MrJones_ | I picked command-line install, same thing. I don't think command line install has a clicky shiny gui | 10:36 |
| nearzt | hello | 10:37 |
| OerHeks | one way to work around non-PAE is to install Lubuntu, and add ubuntu-desktop afterwards | 10:37 |
| OerHeks | Lubuntu does not use PAE kernel @ install | 10:37 |
| MrJones_ | I'm in the installation, I can pick the language, the keyboard, the network settings... but when I get to the "download installer components" stage, it just blanks out. the computer is still responsive, I'm still in text mode (text cursor is there and I can type stuff which appears on screen), but there is simply no dialog box on screen. nothing. blank. TTY still works. | 10:37 |
| nearzt | oh i love tty | 10:38 |
| MrJones_ | OerHeks: is there a 12.04 lts lubuntu? | 10:40 |
| OerHeks | MrJones_, sure, but you can use 13.04 too | 10:43 |
| irssi-mike | MrJones_: even in the mini iso, before you chose install you can f4 and choose install a minimal system | 10:43 |
| irssi-mike | i think | 10:43 |
| MrJones_ | irssi-mike: at which point? I tried and nothing happens when I press f4 | 10:43 |
| MrJones_ | in the boot menu with the install option, nothing happens when I press f4 or f5 | 10:43 |
| ObrienDave | MrJones_... there is a 12.04 Lubuntu. not sure if it's LTS | 10:43 |
| MrJones_ | well I would use a regular ubuntu 12.04 lts if someone can tell me how to get through the installation :P | 10:44 |
| MrJones_ | in command-line install, ctrl+c does successfully bring me back to the install main menu | 10:44 |
| MrJones_ | but another try at downloading installer components just blanks out again, so I can try infinitely and ctrl+c back to the menu | 10:44 |
| MrJones_ | I can netcat and successfully get a response from google.de | 10:45 |
| MrJones_ | so network is working just fine | 10:45 |
| MrJones_ | OerHeks: I'm configuring this laptop for someone who doesn't need the most up to date software, so going with something that has support up to 2017 with no need to upgrade seems like a better idea | 10:46 |
| MrJones_ | so I'm not really interested in a non-LTS version | 10:46 |
| nearzt | well... i still use karmic | 10:47 |
| irssi-mike | I would say it has to be LTS, it's the same version with a different Desktop and Display manager | 10:49 |
| lordzett | lo | 10:50 |
| irssi-mike | at the same time the support isn't desktop and display support | 10:50 |

| damel | I'm back...go figure ;) | 11:08 |
| damel | anyone have an idea what to do if "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" hangs ? | 11:09 |
| Dr_Willis | look in dmesg for errors | 11:09 |
| loa | how i can read dconf parameter? | 11:10 |
| loa | for example com.canonical.Unity.Launcher | 11:10 |
| jrib | loa: you should probably use gsettings | 11:10 |
| loa | i tried different ways but always dconf is sillent | 11:10 |
| loa | jrib, i want command line | 11:10 |
| jrib | loa: gsettings is command line | 11:10 |
| loa | for example dconf read /com/canonical/Unity/Launcher | 11:10 |
| damel | ndiswrapper seems to load the drivers just fine... | 11:10 |
| loa | what is wring with it? | 11:11 |
| faugusztin | loa: you mean get, no ? | 11:11 |
| damel | Dr_Willis : dont see anything in the dmesg | 11:11 |
| damel | if that was for me ;) | 11:11 |
| jrib | loa: for example: gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Launcher favorites | 11:11 |
| Dr_Willis | damel: no idea then. I dont use ndiswrapper | 11:11 |
| damel | lucky you..hehe | 11:11 |
| damel | if anyone else has any ideas they are more than welcome :) | 11:12 |
| loa | jrib, hm it work, but why dconf fails? | 11:12 |
| loa | dconf-editor works fine | 11:12 |
| faugusztin | damel: is there a reason to use ndiswrapper ? :) | 11:12 |
| damel | faugusztin : no linux drivers for my wifi card | 11:13 |
| jrib | loa: maybe it is not stored in dconf? | 11:13 |
| loa | jrib, i see it in dconf-editor | 11:13 |
| damel | faugusztin : aparently the only way to make it work is with ndiswrapper | 11:13 |
| jrib | loa: maybe dconf-editor looks at more than just dconf, i don't know | 11:13 |
| loa | jrib, dconf read /com/canonical/unity/launcher/favorites | 11:14 |
| faugusztin | damel: what device it is (what chip does that card have?) | 11:14 |
| loa | now works good) | 11:14 |
| jrib | loa: ok | 11:14 |
| MrJones_ | so.. anyone around who knows what to do if the text mode install (mini iso) hangs at the "download installer components" stage? I can still go to the TTY and do stuff, so the system isn't frozen, and ctrl+c brings me back to the install main menu. however, "download installer components" will just show blank purple, no dialog box or anything, no progress indicator. I waited for several minutes with nothing happening | 11:14 |
| jrib | loa: but use gsettings, it's higher-level | 11:14 |
| damel | faugusztin : Broadcom Corporation Device [14e4:43b1] (rev 03) | 11:15 |
| loa | jrib, maybe you now about this issue, i want add unity://desktop-icon to my unity launcher it appears well when i add it from gnome settings or in dconf-editor | 11:15 |
| loa | but after relog or reboot it dissapear from unity launcher and from setting too | 11:15 |
| loa | why i can see so strange behaviour? | 11:16 |
| jrib | loa: could be a permissions issue | 11:16 |
| loa | jrib, how i can check this? | 11:16 |
| jrib | loa: but I have no experience with adding to the launcher | 11:16 |
| loa | jrib, my idea is to write my favorites on startup using dconf or gsettings | 11:17 |

| ActionParsnip | nitish_: Wubi is not a long term solution, I recommend a proper install after resizing your NTFS using Windows | 11:58 |
| nitish_ | I installed Ubuntu in a different partition other than that of Windows. Now, programs and features is not showing Ubuntu | 11:58 |

| nitish_ | will the previous version of Ubuntu be removed? | 12:07 |
| OerHeks | nitrile_, no, first remove wubi/ubuntu in windows softwarecenter. | 12:07 |
| nitish_ | No, Ubuntu is not showing up in installed programs | 12:07 |
| OerHeks | it should. | 12:08 |
| nitish_ | Ubuntu is in different partition than Ubuntu | 12:08 |

| mrrcp | whats the best way to configure a stfp to auto mount | 12:13 |
| mrrcp | sftp | 12:13 |
| ActionParsnip | mrrcp: there is no single best way | 12:13 |
| Dr_Willis_ | mrrcp: down and dirty. put the command in /etc/rc.local ;) | 12:14 |
| Jpmh | Dr_Willis: I have asked in the past ane received no answer so I thiught I would ask again, yes | 12:14 |
| llutz | Jpmh: don't escape the () if you use -r | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | mrrcp: one way is to add it in /etc/fstab then add: mount -a in /etc/rc.local above the 'exit 0' line | 12:14 |
| nitish_ | then, first I want to uninstall Ubuntu. | 12:14 |
| nitish_ | how can I do this? | 12:14 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Jpmh: i belve it has to do with regular expressions and how they are 'greedy' but i cant recall more then that i read a paragraph or twon on that in the 'mastering regular expressions' book. id suggest asking in #bash | 12:15 |

| llutz | echo hello|sed -r 's/(ll)/xx\1/' Jpmh | 12:15 |
| nitish_ | then grub also will be uninstalled. | 12:15 |
| Dr_Willis_ | wubi dosent use grub - as far as i know. | 12:16 |
| Jpmh | llutz: ty - realized as you were typing that the shell was seeing the ( - but ty - you got it | 12:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | well the windows bootloader -> then loads grub. ;) | 12:16 |
| nitish_ | so, can delete ubuntu filed completely? | 12:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nitish_: as a test.. try just renameing it? | 12:16 |
| nitish_ | "it"? | 12:17 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nitish_: you will notice this about wubi.. MOST people in here dont use wubi.. so know very littl3e about it | 12:17 |
| nitish_ | I too don't want to use wubi anymore | 12:17 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nitish_: rename the wubi instlled directoryu or file or whatever it is. or try the manual uninstall guide mentioned above | 12:17 |
| damel | anyone get grub to work with window 8 ? | 12:19 |
| tribal | hi | 12:19 |
| damel | for me it sees it window 8, but when it tries to start it I get some time of error / warning about how it can not start like that | 12:21 |
| damel | something with the security | 12:21 |
| OerHeks | damel, sounds like an UEFI issue | 12:22 |
| OerHeks | !uefi | 12:22 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 12:22 |
| Jpmh | damel: I am by no means an expert on Windoze - haven't touched it for years - but doesnt 8 require a secure boot loader? | 12:22 |
| damel | have no clue...got get grub to work I changed the boot loader in my bios | 12:23 |
| damel | I think I can change it back to windows to make windows boot | 12:23 |
| damel | I just find it wierd | 12:23 |
| damel | i'm sure its a UEFI think | 12:23 |
| damel | just have not figured out why yet ;) | 12:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if windows was instllwed in uefi mode. i think the bios has to be in uefi mode | 12:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if you disabled uefi mode - and then reinstalled windows... it might work. | 12:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | but I dont use uefi. and dont plan on it.. any time soon. ;) | 12:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | im just repeating what i seem to recall seeing in here. | 12:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Ubuntu CAN work in uefi mode also i belive. | 12:24 |
| damel | actually..it does just fine in UEFI mode | 12:25 |
| damel | I'm using it right now to boot | 12:25 |
| damel | at least I think I am..hehe | 12:25 |
| damel | ;) | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Im in raspberry-pi mode ;) on my Pi. :) | 12:25 |

| Dr_Willis_ | night all | 12:26 |
| damel | nice..you running ubunut on your Pi ? | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ubuntu cant run on a Pi. wrong ARM cpu. | 12:26 |

| Eduard_Munteanu | Alright. | 12:37 |
| foxyfox | hello all | 12:38 |
| Jpmh | ActionParsnip: MS=MicroSoft - I assumed - did not really worry too nuch about them when I saw ATI and NVIDIA, and as I re-read I see Intel too. So, basically almost all of the video makers | 12:39 |
| foxyfox | i need some thing that is similar to apache virtual host but for e.g when some one try to connect to voip.domain.com it redirects to public ip > 192.168.1.2 if games.domain.com it goes to public ip > 192.168.1.3 | 12:40 |
| foxyfox | what do i need to achieve that ? | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Jpmh: why would Microsoft be interested in Mir? | 12:40 |
| Jpmh | ActionParsnip: lets ignore them, then, isn't the fact that Nvidia, Intel and Ati have bailed enough to cause concern ? | 12:41 |
| foxyfox | but i dont what it for webserver i want it for other services | 12:41 |
| llutz | Jpmh: there still will be wayland, so what | 12:44 |

| Jpmh | llutz: can you explain that to me - this I suspectr is what I am missing - what is the relationship between Wayland and MIR? | 12:45 |
| llutz | Jpmh: well, to me: wayland will be supported, MIR was a stillborn child and canonical has to decide wether to drop it or run into a lonely future. but this is OT here | 12:46 |
| Jpmh | llutz: so you are basically agreeing with my original premise that was denied by ActionParsnip that Mir is "dead"? | 12:48 |

| alfonso | hi | 13:27 |
| mrrcp | how can i remove the 4.1 libre office update and re-install the original | 13:27 |
| varunendra | mplex, I'm not very familiar with building stuff or compiling, only have *some* experience with some drivers. But it seems to me that such errors are a result of discrepancies between kernel header & program source code | 13:27 |
| alfonso | i can't get despotify to work on ubuntu | 13:28 |
| mplex | ok well I'll at least try a reboot to the latest kernel, the only time I've had this issues is where a binary was compiled against a different library than the one installed | 13:28 |
| varunendra | mplex, as such, I think you should keep the kernel header version (and other 'build' essentials too) close to the release version of the program you are having problem with | 13:28 |
| mplex | here I'm just also having a problem with tshark from the repository, I can't build wireshark either due to other library issues which are probably related but its a different issue | 13:29 |

| NoiseEee | so my ubuntu's "Update Manager" just stopped when "Configuring linux-headers-3.2.0-54-generic". Computer is fine, depmod has been at 100% CPU for about 20 minutes now, process is clearly hung. Will I be able to reboot successfully? | 14:37 |
| JoeyJoeJo | How can I change my hostname without rebooting? I edited /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname and ran /etc/init.d/hostname restart but the hostname doesn't change | 14:38 |
| SunTsu | JoeyJoeJo: use "hostname <hostname>" | 14:38 |
| theJeremy | NoiseEee: use the grub menu to select previous version if you have problems booting, then retry the update. | 14:38 |
| NoiseEee | thanks theJeremy | 14:38 |
| SunTsu | without the quotation marks and replace the tag with the real hostname, of course | 14:39 |

| swaagie | so my razer mouse (regardless of surface) seems to be skipping 300-400px up or down occasionally (while if move in any direction), what can I check to find the cause behind this? All interwebs stuff seems to be related to laptops etc.. | 15:23 |
| swaagie | ow also the behaviour is non-existant in windows | 15:25 |
| loa | swaagie, maybe this help http://superuser.com/questions/259216/disabling-mouse-acceleration-in-x-org- linux | 15:25 |
| loa | i think i am not 100% got question. | 15:25 |
| styler2go | One simple Question: How can i create a file like a *.bat file on Windows? Something that executes a simple command line | 15:26 |
| swaagie | loa: well actually that could be the case | 15:26 |
| swaagie | those razers got firmware on the mouse which may be causing issues with drivers in linux | 15:27 |
| swaagie | ill try it out | 15:27 |
| Rory | styler2go: The process is identical on Linux, just put the commands you want to run in a file, and execute it | 15:28 |
| styler2go | no matter whats the file-extension? | 15:28 |
| swaagie | loa: although on windows this video is the exact same thing i'm getting on ubuntu 13 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olF_x48bVEY | 15:28 |
| swaagie | i'll try that link first though | 15:28 |
| Rory | styler2go: File extensions have no special meaning in Linux, they're just a filename that happens to include a dot | 15:28 |
| llutz | styler2go: file-extensions are for humans, not for computers :) linux-systems don't care about them | 15:29 |

| pixelshuck | Google suggests that it is because of encrypted /home | 15:35 |
| mrwappie1 | hi | 15:36 |
| pixelshuck | But I don't have encryption | 15:36 |
| Dau`gone | Libreoffice writer doesnt open the file in a legible fashion...?? | 15:36 |
| raub | pixelshuck: check if what grub things is your root device is indeed the right partition | 15:36 |
| raub | then check if you can mount it manually | 15:37 |
| raub | can do that from restore cd | 15:37 |
| pixelshuck | raub, from the recovery menu thingie, I can see that /dev/sd* don't exist | 15:38 |
| pixelshuck | raub, Simply _erasing_ whole drive, and then installing clean ubuntu shows same error. Both BIOS and UEFI. and it DID work before. | 15:39 |

| foureight84 | what happens when you run crontab without any flags? | 16:15 |
| paulens | Rory, i can try to take a picture of the screen with my phone camera though... but i'll need to log off this channel | 16:15 |
| paulens | Rory, if i run it normally, it just loads up and hangs up with a blank pink-ish screen | 16:16 |
| Nooooooob | so no one that could help me? :( | 16:16 |
| ActionParsnip | pixelshuck: boot to liveCD and chroot in then reinstate grub | 16:16 |
| tux_ | anyone update with 3.8.0-31 today? | 16:17 |
| ActionParsnip | pixelshuck: omgubuntu has a guide called: sticking it to grub | 16:17 |
| pixelshuck | ActionParsnip, No. It is Clean install. 7-th. | 16:17 |
| paulens | Rory, but if i run it in debug mode, it shows some weird warnings which basically consist of numbers, and then the menu appears. when i click boot normally, it says something about unrecognized hardware and my mouse and keyboard won't work from that point | 16:17 |
| hs366 | is Samba installing by default with 13.04 ? | 16:17 |
| styler2go | Rory: It's dead. won't restart. | 16:18 |
| paulens | Rory, there is an option to troubleshoot, but as my keyboard doesn't work, i can't access it... | 16:18 |
| Rory | styler2go: Pull the plug if necessary | 16:18 |
| paulens | Rory, shall i send you a screenshot? | 16:18 |
| styler2go | Rory: It's a rent server :D | 16:19 |
| Rory | paulens: No, just because I have to go home in a minute | 16:19 |
| styler2go | I have to reinstall it... | 16:19 |
| Rory | styler2go: That was my second suggestion | 16:19 |
| styler2go | Oh no :( | 16:19 |
| paulens | Rory, oh.. sad xD | 16:19 |
| ActionParsnip | pixelshuck: still may need doing | 16:19 |
| Rory | styler2go: Try rebooting it first, your provider should provide a way to do this | 16:19 |
| Rory | paulens: I'm not sad, it's Friday and I'm going home :P | 16:20 |
| paulens | Rory, yes, but I AM sad xDDD | 16:20 |
| Nooooooob | I am way more sad | 16:20 |
| Nooooooob | lol | 16:20 |
| paulens | Nooooooob, tried #openvpn? | 16:20 |
| styler2go | Rory: I tried, it is not reacting | 16:21 |

| hs366 | paulens, thx | 16:22 |
| Rory | styler2go: Open a ticket with your provider, they'll probably reboot it quite quickly | 16:22 |
| paulens | hs366, for what? | 16:22 |
| Rory | styler2go: So it *isn't* a brand new server? What did you install? | 16:23 |
| hs366 | paulens, i thought you replied me :D | 16:23 |
| paulens | hs366, oh xD though i didn't :P | 16:23 |
| styler2go | Maybe... i copied the backup of the old Server wrong.. :D | 16:23 |
| hs366 | hahaha..! cool bro | 16:23 |

| theJeremy | sinus_: that depends on your IRC client. | 16:30 |
| sinus_ | oh, I have xchat | 16:30 |
| wilee-nilee | sinus_, most likely in the preferences of the app you are using, which help to like share at the least. | 16:31 |
| wilee-nilee | sinus_, In the prefrences of xchat | 16:31 |
| theJeremy | sinus_: those are notice messages, and you may find some configuration options on their disposition, or not, in your IRC client docs. You may want to try a different IRC client. | 16:31 |

| baphomet1 | hey guys, I have sort of an odd question (maybe). I have a drive mounted in the fstab, but I believe the drive is failing, this is part of a pool. What I would like to do is pull the drive from the system, remount it using a USB drive dock. but I want it to be mounted as it is in the fstab and not in /media. what would be the proper syntax for accomplishing this? | 16:33 |
| mrwappie1 | hi dos some one know a place were i can find info about kevin mitnick? | 16:35 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: you can plug it in, let it mount, then unmount it manually, and remount it however you want. | 16:35 |
| wilee-nilee | !fstab | baphomet1 all over the web | 16:35 |
| ubottu | baphomet1 all over the web: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 16:35 |
| wilee-nilee | baphomet1, If its failing I would not have it in fstab. | 16:36 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, not sure of the proper syntax to mount it as it appears in the fstab. | 16:36 |
| baphomet1 | wilee-nilee, I know, but to properly remove it from the greyhole pool I need to at least have it there temporarily | 16:36 |
| baphomet1 | wilee-nilee, right now the system is shutdown until I can figure out the best course of action that will minimize data loss | 16:37 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: the hard way is to delve into udev(7) rules. | 16:37 |
| wilee-nilee | baphomet1, The bot has fstab info and multiple links at the bottom of the wiki. | 16:37 |
| baphomet1 | wilee-nilee, my question is not about the fstab. my question is about how to remount the USB drive so that it is in the same location as the drive currently resides in the fstab | 16:37 |
| medo | I have setup a working l2tp/ipsec vpn server - but none of my clients can use static ip's, they all seem to get overwritten by the address issued by ppp. Any help? | 16:38 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: if you do "mount <mountpoint>" mount(8) will look up the device node in the fstab using "<mountpoint>" as a key. | 16:38 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, in the <mountpoint> am I to put the actual mount point or do I leave that command as is? | 16:39 |
| skinux | Where do we set position windows are opened at? | 16:39 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: but /etc/fstab is for persistent device usage. Don't use it for temporary stuff, unless you will need to remount it a lot of times for maintenance. Instead, just "mount <device> <mountpoint>". | 16:40 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: whenever I said <mountpoint> you need to use your intended mountpoint. | 16:41 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, once the data is moved out of the greyhole pool and off the device I will have it removed from the fstab. it is only temporary because of how the pool is seeing it. good to know the syntax :D. just hoping the drive will live long enough to actually move data off. | 16:41 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, thank you for the assistance! | 16:42 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: YW. I'm payin' my dues to try and get some help with a hard one. | 16:42 |
| === cmagina is now known as cmagina-away | ||
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, just one more question for clarification. you first suggested using "mount <mountpoint>" indicating that it would look up the device node (this means the USB device?) in the fstab using the <mountpoint> as the key. you then suggested using "mount <device> <mountpoint>". would you say the second method is more 'fool proof' as it were? | 16:44 |
| hs366 | anyone updated Eclipse to new R2 version today ? if any experiences you have | 16:44 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: the second form of mount command is explicit. That makes it less ambiguous, not fool-proof, but in that direction, yes. | 16:45 |
| hs366 | R2 = SR1 | 16:45 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, thanks! I will run with that one. | 16:45 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: good luck! | 16:45 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, so it would be like "mount /media/usb1 (example) /dev/sdb1 (or however it appears in the fstab)" just want to make sure I have it correct | 16:46 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: more like "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb1" | 16:47 |
| wheatthin | baphomet1, you might have to specify the filesystem type | 16:47 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, why the reverse? | 16:47 |
| sinus_ | Any gamers here? | 16:48 |
| mrwappie | daf | 16:48 |

| mrrcp | is there a package to install all the MS OFFICE fonts so that libreoffice can display windows presentations properly? | 16:48 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: note what whaeatthin said, and you might want to "man mount." | 16:48 |
| mrrcp | !msoffice | 16:48 |
| mrwappie | D | 16:48 |

| baphomet1 | theJeremy, thanks again! | 16:49 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, thank you too! | 16:49 |

| baphomet1 | ddr_, please restate the problem? | 16:49 |

| hs366 | ! eclipse | 16:50 |
| hs366 | <ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about eclipse | 16:50 |

| isasha | Yo | 16:51 |
| isasha | is sshuttle secure enough for home use? | 16:51 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, noted. I would hope it would pick up on the fact that it is ext4, but if not it's no biggie to specify it | 16:51 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: YMMV, but you *may* want to try using dd to pull the raw blocks off the drive if it won't mount. dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=/your_bigstorage/broken_drive.img | 16:53 |
| johey | When using linux-lowlatency kernel, my ThinkPad X1 Carbon does not boot. I hangs at "Loading linux-lowlatency-3.8.31". When switching back to generic, it continues with loading ramfs and so on. | 16:53 |

| tux3 | im a new ubuntu user | 17:02 |
| theJeremy | baphomet1: if you want to resize the fs, you should definitely dd it off the flaky hardware onto a file, and work with that until it's less than a partition on the smaller target drive, then you can dd the file onto the target drive partition device node. | 17:02 |

| Markus_ | The ext4 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI2 (0,0,0) (sdb) failed. pm me. | 17:09 |
| wheatthin | all you have to do is generate the xorg.conf file and have it use "nv" as the driver instead of nvidia | 17:09 |
| tux3 | i got a cd with iso that i have downloded | 17:09 |
| jhutchins | TheSov: I don't know which driver you have, but yes, you can use the OS nvidia driver. The exacct steps should be in that link above, or just reverse the process they use. I believe you have to un-blacklist the OS driver. | 17:09 |
| jhutchins | TheSov: Ah, so according to wheatthin, just make a copy of the file for when you later want to go back to nvidia and update it to use nv. | 17:10 |
| jhutchins | wheatthin: Do you have to do anything for the kernel kms module? | 17:10 |

| TheSov | yes but the heck would the package name for that driver be? | 17:15 |
| TheSov | heh | 17:15 |
| wheatthin | TheSov, you can search for it apt-cache search nvidia | 17:15 |

| TheSov | yes found it! | 17:16 |
| TheSov | thanks! | 17:16 |
| wheatthin | yup | 17:16 |
| TheSov | hopefully this wokrs | 17:17 |
| TheSov | works | 17:17 |
| tux3 | hi pepee | 17:17 |
| TheSov | hmm says i have a different driver in dkms | 17:17 |
| TheSov | remove all dkms modules? | 17:17 |
| wheatthin | it means you already have the newest version | 17:18 |
| wheatthin | otherwise it would have updated | 17:18 |
| TheSov | its asking me if i want to remove dkms modules? | 17:18 |
| wheatthin | Sure. | 17:18 |
| TheSov | cool | 17:18 |
| TheSov | works! | 17:19 |
| TheSov | thanks so much | 17:19 |
| TheSov | im going download that deb and keep it, i dont want this happening again | 17:19 |
| hs366 | Q: if i remove the Eclipse folder from my /opt , does it remove completely ? | 17:19 |
| hs366 | thx | 17:20 |
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, back | 17:20 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, back | 17:21 |
| Calinou | hs366: normally yes | 17:21 |
| hs366 | i just installed it by DL the package from Eclipse.org , not from package manager | 17:21 |
| hs366 | so i thought maybe i should do more , | 17:22 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, if I use DD and move it to a file, am I able to then expand that file out onto a new drive at a later date? | 17:22 |
| a7i3n | Thanks BluesKaj... I usually do a clean install, just checking to see if anyone knew a better way. I think I'd like a rolling release model... | 17:22 |
| === reed_ is now known as reed | ||
| baphomet1 | theJeremy, IC. so I could go to a larger drive, but smaller would be bad? | 17:22 |
| hs366 | Calinou, thx , i will try it :) | 17:23 |
| BluesKaj | a7i3n: I've done it successfully using both methods , but I prefer the internet upgrade , because there's no fooling around with reinstalling stuff | 17:24 |
| wheatthin | baphomet1, yup | 17:24 |
| tech11 | hi all | 17:25 |
| blabli | hello | 17:26 |
| blabli | is it possible to mount /usr with --bind option ? | 17:26 |
| blabli | on an ubuntu system | 17:26 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, and DD doesn't care about the drive size used to pull down an img file? the drive that is going out is 2TB, but maybe only a couple hundred gigs are in use. I have a spare 1TB drive that I can DD it to tonight, but I want to be sure that wouldn't cause problems | 17:27 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, judging by what theJeremy said, it looks like DD may panic if I do that | 17:27 |
| yokobr | hey guys, solved. I was out of free space on /boot | 17:28 |
| yokobr | thank you all | 17:28 |
| wheatthin | yeah the drive it will panic, cause it'll also try to copy the empty bits | 17:28 |
| wheatthin | so you must have the same size drive, or larger, never smaller | 17:28 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, that is why he brought up the resizefs thing. so I could DD it to a larger drive without issue then. hmm. I think my first step (read as the easiest step) is to have the drive mounted after boot to pull it out of the drive pool. | 17:29 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, sorry to be a n00b, but at this point we are far beyond my own Linux knowledge. so I just want to be sure I do things correctly. | 17:29 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, so it looks like if I do the "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb1" that will mount the possibly failing drive I have pulled and put in a USB dock to the same location that it used to reside in the fstab, short of possibly having to tell it the file system type, am I missing anything there? | 17:31 |
| wheatthin | it's not needed to be in fstab | 17:31 |
| paul424 | is kubuntu binary compatible with ubuntu ? | 17:32 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, the background here is that I am using greyhole (a samba storage pooling solution) and I need it in the fstab until I can remove the drive from the greyhole pool. | 17:32 |
| wheatthin | I see | 17:32 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, so will the above command accomplish what I am trying to accomplish? | 17:32 |
| wheatthin | as long as /media/usb1 exists, if not create the directory | 17:33 |
| sandertje | how can i prevent Zeitgeist from eating all my RAM? | 17:33 |
| xangua | paul424: kubuntu and ubuntu use the same repositories, bot are Ubuntu | 17:34 |
| chaotic_good | tryign to find 'spotter' a python script to spot files, it says its managed by udate??? | 17:34 |
| chaotic_good | I dont see in /etc/init.d | 17:34 |
| paul424 | ok | 17:34 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, I used /media/usb1 as an example, but I understand. | 17:34 |
| Myrtti | paul424: well deep down they're nearly the same thing, a bit like tea is still tea if it's poured from a teacup to a tea mug | 17:34 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, so all that command is doing is pointing the mount point listed in the fstab at a different location, correct? | 17:34 |
| tech11 | i have problem with make step install gammamoo server. can people help me install it in my server, ubuntu? | 17:34 |
| wheatthin | ooh this is fstab entry | 17:35 |
| wheatthin | You have to also specify filesystem type | 17:35 |
| Myrtti | paul424: looks different from the outside - the repositories are same and the basic stuff is the same underneath the hood | 17:35 |
| wheatthin | and user permission | 17:35 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, ok. is user permission one of the flags you append to the mount command or is it something that I should write into the fstab? | 17:36 |
| wheatthin | in fstab | 17:36 |
| paul424 | http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/Ogre+Meshy I wante to install kubuntu on ubuntu desktop | 17:36 |
| tech11 | i have problem with make step install gammamoo server. can people help me install it in my server, ubuntu? | 17:37 |
| jhutchins | wheatthin: usb drives tend to mount automatically via udev, which usually creates the appropriate mount point in /media/ - fstab entries are useful for setting options but not necessary. | 17:37 |
| jhutchins | paul424: No need, just install KDE. | 17:38 |
| wheatthin | rgr.. I'll remember that jhutchins | 17:38 |
| jhutchins | !kde | 17:38 |
| ubottu | KDE (http://kde.org) is an open community that creates and maintains software including the Plasma desktop. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. | 17:38 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, so the command should look something like this on my system "mount /dev/disk/by-uuid/UUID_OF_FAILING_DRIVE /media/USB_DRIVE_LOCATION -t ext4" again noting that the device UUID that is being provided is the same device that is going to be mounted as a USB device. does this seem correct? | 17:39 |
| paul424 | to install an KUBUNTU program* ... | 17:39 |
| Myrtti | paul424: but you don't have to install kde to install that app, no | 17:39 |
| paul424 | on ubuntu system | 17:39 |
| tech11 | i have problem with make step install gammamoo server. can people help me install it in my server, ubuntu? | 17:39 |
| paul424 | :) | 17:39 |
| wheatthin | baphomet1, no sir.. partition type should go right after mount | 17:39 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, "mount -t ext4 /dev/disk/by-uuid/UUID_OF_FAILING_DRIVE /media/USB_DRIVE_LOCATION" ok. this is just strange to me because we are pointing something that already exists at itself in a different location hehe. | 17:40 |
| wheatthin | no uuid for /dev | 17:41 |
| wheatthin | just the device.... /dev/sda or whatever | 17:41 |
| wilee-nilee | tech11, 3rd party, not technically a ubuntu support install, you might also try #ubuntu-server | 17:41 |
| wheatthin | UUID will be just for fstab | 17:42 |
| jhutchins | tech11: There should be a README file and possibly an INSTALL file with instructions in the package. | 17:42 |
| jhutchins | tech11: If there isn't one, or if it's not clear, you should reconsider using that package. | 17:43 |

| JoeLinux | Can someone help me out with screen/byobu configuration on Ubuntu EC2 instance? Specifically, handling login and logout of sessions. | 17:44 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: what are you looking for? | 17:45 |
| JoeLinux | I need to support multiple connections to the same byobu session on login (so multiple connections mirror the display). For teaching/observation purposes. | 17:45 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: are using the screen or the tmux backend? | 17:45 |
| jboii | hi | 17:46 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: Eh, it doesn't matter. I have both installed and can switch to whichever is more suited for this purpose. | 17:46 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: do you care if your students have write access inside of the session? or do you need to protect yourself by making that read-only? | 17:46 |
| jboii | can someone help me add a podcast to rhythmbox? | 17:47 |
| jboii | http://tunein.com/topic/?topicId=49578202 | 17:47 |
| jboii | im tryin to get this one to work | 17:47 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: Don't need that protection. To be more specific, I'm having another developer login to make his application work, and he's going to run through it step-by-step while I watch, basically. | 17:47 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: okay, great | 17:48 |
| JoeLinux | He's in NYC, I'm in Miami. So, need to mirror display across SSH sessions. | 17:48 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, should I not use the entry as it appears in the fstab? | 17:48 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: just enable byobu to launch by default, by running "byobu-enable" | 17:48 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: do that once; now both of you ssh into the system, and you'll both be looking/typing in the same byobu session | 17:48 |
| wheatthin | baphomet1, not for the initial mount.. just in fstab | 17:49 |
| HerbertWest | Hello there I need a little help with this http://askubuntu.com/questions/350845/how-to-embed-a-new-window-on-gtk-quickly-glade | 17:49 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: I don't need to enable multiuser or anything? | 17:49 |
| wheatthin | so if you're trying to manually mount it it's mount -t ext4 /dev/<device> /media/<mount point> | 17:49 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: Well I'll be damned. It works that way right out of the box... lol. I feel stupid. | 17:50 |
| wheatthin | when doing it in fstab, it's by UUID | 17:50 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: enjoy ;-) | 17:50 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, ok. I am going to have to figure out what the entry for it is as /dev/device. | 17:50 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, ic. | 17:50 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: One more... how do I make this "override" the regular session, so you're always in byobu? | 17:50 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: that's what byobu-enable does | 17:50 |
| dinesh__ | i m facing brightness problem in ubuntu 12.04 in sony vaio e- series | 17:50 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, I am having a look at that link now | 17:51 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: I have another EC2 server that was built on another Ubuntu AMI, and it seems that when I type exit, it exits the SSH session instead of just ending the byobu session. | 17:51 |
| dinesh__ | plz help me i m trying from a year today i came to know this irc channel | 17:51 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: Which is great because I always pick up where I left off, and don't kill the session by mistake. | 17:51 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: so you want to exit byobu, and then remain in a shell on the remote system? | 17:51 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: Nope. End the session by typing "exit" once. | 17:51 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: you want to type exit, thereby killing byobu AND logging out of your ssh session? | 17:52 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, still makes my head spin thinking that we are pointing a drive at itself in a different location haha. I never would have thought it possible. | 17:52 |
| dinesh__ | any one here to solve my prob ????? | 17:52 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: Ugh, nevermind again. It seems that's also the default behavior. Please ignore my... uh... ignorance. | 17:52 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: yep, that's exactly the default | 17:53 |
| wheatthin | baphomet1, well the UUID is basically a shortcut to specifying the device | 17:53 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: Thanks. | 17:53 |

| gmachine_24 | Greetings. Can I add a line to /etc/fstab so an external USB hard drive will mount to the same place every time I boot the computer? I created the mount point, etc., and have the UUID for the drive but adding a standard line to /etc/fstab doesn't seem to work. | 17:53 |
| bazhang | !blkid | baphomet1 | 17:53 |
| ubottu | baphomet1: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 17:53 |
| kirkland | JoeLinux: no problem, always glad to see new Byobu users | 17:54 |
| baphomet1 | wheatthin, yeah. again as we are way out of the scope of my knowledge at this point, is there a reason why using the dev/by-uuid....wouldn't work? | 17:54 |
| wheatthin | baphomet1, when specifying the mount point, all you're doing is giving you a physical place to access the device | 17:54 |
| JoeLinux | kirkland: I've been using Screen for years, but never really played with Byobu. | 17:54 |
| baphomet1 | bazhang, thanks for the suggestion, at this point we are far beyond that. | 17:54 |

| BlueProtoman | Calinou, None. When I double click the jar, it just opens in Archive manager. And italian-cruncher, yes, it's executable. I ran "sudo chmod +x" on it. | 19:36 |

| italian-cruncher | BlueProtoman, the sh script is executable by double click, but I get your point | 19:38 |
| Calinou | normally, you can change default program for .jar files | 19:38 |
| Calinou | right click > open with > Other... > choose java | 19:38 |
| Calinou | and set it as default | 19:38 |
| italian-cruncher | he said that java doesn't show up in there... | 19:38 |
| BlueProtoman | Calinou, yes, but Java doesn't appear on the list. | 19:38 |
| italian-cruncher | BlueProtoman, did you install java from repos? | 19:39 |
| italian-cruncher | the openjdk? | 19:39 |
| BlueProtoman | italian-cruncher, yes, but I also installed Sun java via the PPA set up by WebUpd8. | 19:39 |

| italian-cruncher | havv, did you check that you aren't using an IP already used on the network? | 19:47 |
| italian-cruncher | AdityaRaj, it depends on where you installed it. If you are running it as a live CD then no, it won't save anything unless you explicitly save files on another partition, but any changes to the OS will be lost if you are using it live (Live: just boot and no install) | 19:48 |

| italian-cruncher | Siidis, I'd manual backup all your data that sits on /home and just write a text file with a list of packages to be reinstalled if things go bad. Using such checklist a reinstall is a breeze. Nothing better comes to mind with such limited storage room | 19:55 |

| MoPac | Hello; I have a question about the files in sources.list.d . I'm a bit confused about the meaning of extra copies of the repository files whose filenames end in ".distupgrade" or ".save". Could anyone shine a light for me? | 20:22 |
| gregor3005 | hi, does anybody use a sony dualshock3 controller with ubuntu? | 20:22 |
| trism | MoPac: http://askubuntu.com/questions/82825/do-files-at-etc-apt-sources-list-d-need-to-have-an-extension-list | 20:24 |
| MoPac | trism: I've seen that page, but it doesn't really answer my question: what are they for? (And I don't think it mentioned the distupgrade versions) | 20:25 |
| Heeeeelp | i enteredc the boot repair sudo code and it says to check my internet access | 20:25 |
| moes | Heeeeelp, !md5sum | 20:26 |
| moes | md5sum | 20:26 |
| moes | !md5sum | 20:27 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 20:27 |
| blastermaster | hi everybody | 20:27 |
| trism | MoPac: I believe .save are created when you disable a source, and .distUpgrade are likely from upgrading between distributions, since ppas are automatically disabled (because they will likely cause issues with the upgrade) | 20:27 |
| trism | MoPac: the idea is that you don't want to delete the user's config, so you save them for later, even though they are currently ignored | 20:28 |
| blastermaster | I just finally install a variant of the easycap capturecards the one with the somagic chipset i got video no audio, but how to i record the video? | 20:28 |
| MoPac | trism: ah | 20:28 |
| Heeeeelp | at does !md5sum mean | 20:29 |
| Heeeeelp | i typed it into the terminal | 20:29 |
| MoPac | I'm trying to clean up my sources.list.d folder, since some of them seem to be unused or otherwise out of whack (old distro names in the filenames, need for some lines in the sources.list file to be files in sources.list.d ,etc) | 20:29 |
| === mike_af_ is now known as mike_af | ||
| trism | Heeeeelp: that just tells ubottu to display the message above about md5 sums | 20:29 |
| trism | MoPac: yeah you can delete those, I usually clean them up every few upgrades | 20:30 |
| Heeeeelp | i typed it and it says event not found | 20:30 |
| trism | Heeeeelp: you don't type !md5sum in the terminal, moes was sending you this link to read: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 20:31 |

| jhutchins | Heeeeelp: Do you know if it has UEFI? Did the motherboard say anything like Windows 8 ready? | 20:54 |
| italian-cruncher | might be a GPT vs MBR issue | 20:54 |
| jhutchins | Heeeeelp: Actually, if you built it, what make and model motherboard? | 20:55 |

| toshiba | on ubuntu 13.04 | 21:41 |
| Heeeeelp | i bought the part and built myself | 21:41 |
| David-A | Krustyklimber: there is a key to get a (grub) menu of which kernel to boot, (if a new kernel prohibits boot but an old kernel works (which problem I have never had)) | 21:42 |
| toshiba | root@toshiba-Satellite-C640:~# sudo apt-get install mysql-server | 21:42 |

| italian-cruncher | JohnVonNeumann, I guessed it | 21:42 |
| Heeeeelp | i downloaded it but it is just the files | 21:42 |
| wilee-nilee | Heeeeelp, Have you answered whether this is a uefi computer setup? | 21:42 |
| Heeeeelp | does not load the actuall program | 21:42 |
| jboii | can you please link me to download? | 21:42 |

| zykotick9 | jboii: <ot> sidenote - ftp must die... </ot> don't reply. | 21:43 |

| Viproz | I have trouble with Ubuntu, when I launch it, it have wird visual bugs | 21:43 |
| italian-cruncher | JohnVonNeumann, just remove the auto, from that line, leaving all of it the way it is | 21:43 |
| Viproz | It is the first launch | 21:43 |
| Heeeeelp | yes it is uefi | 21:43 |
| italian-cruncher | JohnVonNeumann, the new line should look like this: /dev/disk/by-uuid/002d3ce8-abd5-436b-89aa-d03d9241604c /media/My4Files ext4 nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0 | 21:44 |
| Krustyklimber | ok thanks David | 21:44 |
| wilee-nilee | Heeeeelp, Is the bios set to legacy and does the HD have a msdos partition table? | 21:44 |
| mmazing | xrandr didn't work for detecting monitors as i need to do it before x11 starts at all, anyone have any ideas for detecting how many monitors are connected before x starts ? | 21:44 |
| Heeeeelp | i have no idea | 21:44 |
| wilee-nilee | Heeeeelp, Those are key parts for the install, uefi is not really needed with ubuntu. | 21:45 |
| Krustyklimber | restore fails with an "unknown error" if I try to run it from the systems icon | 21:46 |
| faugusztin | mmazing: why do you need to do it before X starts ? | 21:46 |
| Heeeeelp | i hadubuntu do all the partitioning itself | 21:47 |
| Viproz | http://hpics.li/3d1f572 what shoud I do ? | 21:48 |
| italian-cruncher | Heeeeelp, do a re-install with manual partitioning and do 3 partitions, a swap area, a / area and a /home area | 21:48 |
| mmazing | faugusztin: i want to switch out my xorg.conf file before it starts | 21:50 |
| Krustyklimber | David-A now it's just stuck with a purple screen... didn't boot at all | 21:50 |
| faugusztin | mmazing: the point of xrandr stuff is that you don't need to have any xorg file at all, you just dynamically enable/disable displays according to what is detected via that script | 21:51 |

| David-A | Krustyklimber: ESC may be used by bios to enter bios settings or its boot menu. check the bios and grub manuals to see what key it really is. | 21:55 |

| Guest3831 | Hello. I'm on an Ubuntu live cd and I'm trying to recover my data from a dying harddrive. I got a new one so I'm cloning it over with "(g)ddrescue -f -r 1 -v /dev/sda /dev/sdb clone.log". Thankfully it's going quite well and is nearly done with only 2 errors. What should I do after it finishes? I think it's possible to continue trying to recover the errors but from googling I'm having trouble working out the correct fl | 22:12 |
| Guest3831 | ags. Should I just do the same thing again with -r -1 or are other flags needed. Sorry for the long post. Thank you. | 22:12 |
| ViaNocturna85 | if you done that you use command: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install bumblebee primus (then restart) | 22:13 |

| axelm7 | wilee-nilee, so this channel is not for development versions? | 22:17 |
| David-A | Guest3831: if you have run it with retries you don't need to do it again, unless the recovery percentage is too low or a specific photo that you really want is still corrupted in the recovered copy | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | axelm7, you got it. | 22:17 |
| axelm7 | what's the right channel for 13.10? | 22:18 |

| David-A | Guest3831: but more than 1 or a few retries are unlikely to recover anything more, i think | 22:18 |
