| dobbos | any idea how to find Jesus in Ubuntu 13.04? | 00:03 |
| swaagie | water your screen | 00:04 |

| ubottu | dobbos: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 00:04 |
| dobbos | done that as per a couple of how-to's, no luck :( | 00:04 |
| wilee-nilee | there is a ubuntu Christian edition however | 00:04 |
| wilee-nilee | http://ubuntuce.com/ | 00:05 |
| ersatz | hey, can anyone help me figure out why my 12.04 stops booting for me? | 00:08 |
| swaagie | wilee-nilee: any pointers from the gist? | 00:08 |
| === derrick_ is now known as cbilljones | ||
| ersatz | what would the gist be? | 00:09 |
| cbilljones | I have an init script that is looking for rc.local which ubuntu doesnt use, can anyone assist me to get it working? | 00:09 |
| ryaninwa | Hello I am trying to use the startup disk creator to make a bootable usb drive but when I try to choose my source disc image I cannot find it | 00:15 |
| ryaninwa | in the online instructions for creating one it doesn't specify a location other than the default location that opens when choosing other | 00:16 |
| ryaninwa | can anyone please help me? | 00:17 |
| swaagie | ryaninwa: you sure the disk is still mounted? | 00:17 |
| ryaninwa | I am not sure what you mean. I am not using a disc for installation | 00:18 |
| wilee-nilee | ersatz, could be any number of reasons give details to the channel. | 00:18 |
| swaagie | ryaninwa: usb/disk/storage unit ;) | 00:18 |
| swaagie | ryaninwa: what are you using? | 00:18 |
| ryaninwa | I am using ubuntu 12.04 | 00:19 |
| ryaninwa | The steps I am taking are: I got to dash home open startup Disk creator open it and then select other | 00:20 |
| ersatz | I posted on ubuntu forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2179974 | 00:20 |
| swaagie | ryaninwa: nvm I didnt read properly, you already stated usb drive, question remains is it mounted, easiest is to check the 'disk' program | 00:20 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, open gparted take a screen shot of any and all HD's and imagebin them. | 00:20 |
| swaagie | gparted is not installed by default in 12 right? | 00:21 |
| ryaninwa | This is the first time I have used linux or unbuntu so I am not sure what gparted is | 00:21 |
| wilee-nilee | !nomodeset | ersatz | 00:22 |
| ubottu | ersatz: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 00:22 |
| ryaninwa | I am having trouble locating the, "downloaded ISO file" | 00:22 |
| wilee-nilee | ersatz, Not much detail however with what you have posted I would guess a missing graphic driver, or the wrong one. | 00:22 |
| swaagie | ryaninwa: should be under ~/Downloads normally where ~ is your home folder, e.g. /home/<username>/Downloads | 00:24 |
| ihab | What to do after Gnome 10 release on ubuntu | 00:24 |
| ersatz | wilee-nilee, the thing is, I got the graphic driver working nicely. in one case it stopped working when I installed the 32 bit version also, in the 32 bit version, it was working fine until I rebooted (one time). | 00:24 |
| ryaninwa | Sorry what I am trying to do is make a bootable USB drive and I am following the steps listed on http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu and I am stuck on step 4 | 00:24 |
| k1l_ | ihab: can you rephrase? | 00:25 |
| ihab | Step 4: you should browse to locate the .iso source file | 00:25 |
| ersatz | ubottu, I will certainly look at that pointer and see if I can get nomodeset to help me. | 00:25 |
| ubottu | ersatz: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:25 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, You in windows? | 00:25 |
| swaagie | wilee-nilee: btw I fiddled a bit with the partner repo's so that I could install skype from the package manager, then however it bails on a lacking skype-bin and when I try to install that it borks on libqt4-dbus:i386 | 00:25 |
| ihab | ryaninwa: What about it | 00:25 |
| ryaninwa | WIlee nillee I am in ubuntu 12.04 | 00:26 |
| ihab | k1l_: You must have the Ubuntu or any linux distro source file as .iso file format | 00:26 |
| swaagie | then hit the other button :) | 00:26 |
| k1l_ | ihab: what are you actually trying to do? | 00:27 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, This a installed ubuntu? | 00:27 |
| ryaninwa | Swaagie I hit the other button but I cannot locate ISO the source file | 00:27 |
| ihab | I am helping ryaninwa with his/her problem\ | 00:27 |
| wilee-nilee | !tab | ryan | 00:27 |
| ubottu | ryan: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 00:27 |
| wilee-nilee | !tab | ryaninwa | 00:27 |
| ubottu | ryaninwa: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 00:27 |
| * swaagie chuckles | 00:28 | |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, YOu on a live cd trying to use it as the iso to install with the startup disk app? | 00:29 |
| Freeder | Hi folks, I'm looking at an example inittab line of code: zz:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/sudo -u user1 /path/to/my_daemon . the file my_daemon ... that is the file I always want running, right? Or does that need to be code to check if a file is running? | 00:29 |
| reisio | does Ubuntu even use /etc/inittab anymore? | 00:30 |
| ryaninwa | wilnee nilee I am tryin to intall with the startup disk app http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu | 00:30 |
| Freeder | actually, it doesnt. | 00:30 |
| Freeder | hmm. | 00:30 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, Can you answer my last question? | 00:30 |
| Freeder | what is the equivilent now? | 00:31 |
| ryaninwa | Sorry wilee nilee was your last question about the startup disk app? | 00:31 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, You are not using the tab key to complete nicks, nor are you really communicating with those that address you, do you speak english? | 00:32 |
| swaagie | lol wtf: wine1.4:i386 : Depends: wine1.4-i386:i386 (= 1.4.1-0ubuntu5) but it is not going to be installed | 00:32 |
| k1l_ | swaagie: PPAs? | 00:32 |
| AndroUser | Hey there, i made a big blunder, i followed some tutorial to remove gnome, with some pasting, and now after a reboot my laptop is useless, i only have access to the command line, could somebody help me out to restore my system? | 00:32 |
| ryaninwa | wilee-nilee: sorry this is the first time I have used this forum | 00:32 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, Where is the iso you are trying to use? | 00:32 |
| swaagie | k1l_: I dunno it started with an attempt to get skype installed on 64bit 13.04, but somewhere I completely borked my repo's it seems, I already remove all custom ppa's | 00:33 |
| ryaninwa | wilee-nilee: I am not sure where it is located. I think that is the problem. | 00:33 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, Are you in a ubuntu install or on in a live enviroment? | 00:34 |
| ryaninwa | wilee-nilee: In a live environment I believe I am currently running ubuntu | 00:34 |
| nishanth | i am noob at linux i just installed ubuntu with a windows 7 partion and i dont see the grub after restart can someone help me | 00:34 |
| Freeder | AndroUser: what did you expect to happen when you removed gnome? | 00:35 |
| reisio | AndroUser: you want GNOME back? | 00:35 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, Is the iso in another OS? you can't use the live environment as the install iso, for the install yes, but not as. | 00:35 |
| tarheel | lol sudo apt-get install gnome | 00:35 |
| reisio | lololololol | 00:36 |
| tarheel | ive no idea why anyone would use gnome anyway | 00:36 |
| reisio | ikr | 00:36 |
| nishanth | can someone help me with a grub issue please?? | 00:37 |
| iklaros | can anyone help with a uefi install? i get a secure boot error on startup, i cannot turn off secure boot on this machine. what do i do? | 00:37 |
| ryaninwa | wilee-nilee: I downloaded and installed ubuntu alongside windows so I did install and download it with windows and this is my first time running the program | 00:37 |
| reisio | nishanth: any particular grub issue? | 00:37 |
| AndroUser | Actually i had lxde already installed, but my computer can''t recognize my graphic card!? | 00:37 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, This a wubi install, ubuntu does not install to a ntfs unless it is a wubi. | 00:37 |
| swaagie | k1l_: perhaps you can make anything of it, https://gist.github.com/Swaagie/6927503 some stuff I did to get skype installed, tried to revert to just single arch amd64, still seems to be still stuck somewhere on i386, now I retried and the funky shit I just linked happened | 00:38 |
| reisio | AndroUser: well pick a problem | 00:38 |
| ryaninwa | wilee-nilee: Would I need to download ubuntu again on the ubuntu OS to be able to create a bootable USB drive | 00:38 |
| nishanth | reisio : i installed ubuntu using a live cd and when i restart it goes directly to windows | 00:38 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, YOU installed from windows a wubi correct? | 00:38 |
| swaagie | what was that repo rebuild site again? | 00:38 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : so am i supposed to reinstall from windows using wubi? | 00:39 |
| AndroUser | The problem is that i don't know how to connect to the internet from the command line | 00:39 |
| ryaninwa | wilee-nilee: Correct I used wubi to install it | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, I would not. | 00:39 |
| iklaros | no-one knows uefi and secure boot? | 00:40 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee , i want ubuntu as a an option to dual boot | 00:40 |
| wilee-nilee | ryaninwa, I would just do another download of 12.04 to load the usb, the iso is somewhere in windows and it is accessible, but few here know wubi or how to navigate from it to windows. | 00:40 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : so how do i make my grub start at boot? | 00:40 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, Do you have more than one HD, and is this a dual boot, if so with what? | 00:41 |
| wilee-nilee | which windows release | 00:41 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : i have only one HD and i made a partition with windows 7 | 00:42 |
| ryaninwa | wilee-nilee: So would you save the file to the desktop and then browse to it? If so is the ISO file end with ".ISO" | 00:42 |
| iklaros | nishanth: you created the partition using the tools provided by windows 7? | 00:42 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, You can't make a ubuntun partition in windows. | 00:42 |
| iklaros | nishanth: The recommended method is make a bootable ubuntu USB, then reboot the machine from that, and use that instsaller. That will setup grub. | 00:42 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : i mean i made some free space and then boot from live cd | 00:43 |
| === vemacs is now known as vemacs|ded | ||
| iklaros | well good luck with it,im going back to trying to sort out secure boot install, seems no-one here knows how to do UEFI | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, Run the bootrepair app, and save the bootinfo summary ion case it does not work to post for more help. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 00:44 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, This was not originally a W8 computer with gpt right, and no raid involved? | 00:44 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : this is a win7 computer | 00:45 |
| nishanth | i used the disk manager to free space | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, YOu understand my question though on gpt and raid right? | 00:46 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : i did not understand your question | 00:47 |
| swaagie | ok giving up | 00:48 |
| swaagie | stuff is utterly broken | 00:48 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, It is important to say so then, boot the live ubuntu environment and open gparted in the menu and take a screen shot of it and post it at a imagebin. | 00:48 |
| reisio | yay, giving up | 00:48 |
| swaagie | what is there evebn beyond apt to manageestuff | 00:48 |
| reisio | swaagie: ? | 00:48 |
| swaagie | reisio: ? | 00:48 |
| === samuel_ is now known as samuel | ||
| reisio | swaagie: need help with something? | 00:49 |
| iklaros | nishanth: The way you can tell if you have GPT in windows is open command prompt, type 'diskpart' and then 'list disk'. there is a tick box in GPT if oyu have it. | 00:49 |
| wilee-nilee | iklaros, In windows? | 00:49 |
| swaagie | reisio: any help is always welcome, ill try to make a long story short | 00:49 |
| reisio | iklaros: what does it mean if he's got GPT? | 00:49 |
| iklaros | wilee-nilee: That will work in Windows 7. Linux doesn't have a monopoly on terminal commands ;-) | 00:50 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee right now i am chating using on the win7 environment, am i supposed to restart from live cd? | 00:51 |
| wilee-nilee | iklaros, did I say they did, you have not followed the posts, but just spit out info to serve yourself. | 00:51 |
| iklaros | wilee-nilee: You can also do it from disk adminstrator but I can't remember which screen it's in. The command line is easier sometimes ;-) | 00:51 |
| swaagie | reisio: attempted to install skype, see https://gist.github.com/Swaagie/6927503, required to add arch i386, no success, reverted, state still tries to get non amd64 packages, did cleaning/rebuild repo/keys with http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ retried same result | 00:51 |
| reisio | swaagie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype | 00:52 |
| swaagie | obvisouly I also did all regular cleaning and rebuilding stuff in between as well,-f / clean / autoclean / --configure -a | 00:52 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, Yes, I would like to see what exactly is on the HD, if this can be fixed generally the live cd is where it would be done from, a new install made. | 00:52 |
| iklaros | wilee-nilee: Well I did say in the post it was on windows ... I'd say it wasn't me that wasn't following | 00:52 |
| swaagie | if nly it was that simple | 00:52 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee ok i did what iklaros said and the section under gpt is blank | 00:52 |
| wilee-nilee | or a new install* | 00:52 |
| swaagie | reisio: basically that page describes exactly what I did | 00:53 |
| iklaros | nishanth: It's MBR then, not GPT. That's cool. | 00:53 |
| reisio | swaagie: if it did that, I wouldn't have linked it | 00:53 |
| swaagie | keeps moaning about skype-bin | 00:53 |
| reisio | swaagie: try reading it again | 00:53 |
| nishanth | iklaros : so what do i do next? | 00:54 |
| swaagie | reisio: how would that help? | 00:54 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : i installed, deleted and reinstalled ubuntu like 3 times all the 3 times the grub was not loaded at restart | 00:55 |
| reisio | swaagie: if you read it again, maybe you'd read it properly | 00:55 |
| iklaros | nishanth: If you used the microsoft tools in disk administrator to resize the partition, you don't hav RAID either, since it can't do that on a raid. | 00:56 |
| swaagie | reisio: sorry didn't want to offend you, but i'd rather not play a guessing game in the middle of the night | 00:56 |
| reisio | swaagie: all the more reason to read | 00:57 |
| iklaros | nishanth: do you have any read only boot loader options set in the bios? | 00:57 |
| iklaros | nishanth: the bios could be preventing writes to the boot sector as a security measure | 00:57 |
| nishanth | iklaros , i actually dont think so, but how do i find out? | 00:58 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, Can you just do what I have suggested. | 00:58 |
| iklaros | nishanth: You'd need to look in the bios, it's system dependant. usually you press one of the f-keys as it boots up. but i'm goign to tell you follow wilee-nilee 's advice since im sort of AFK trying to sort out this UEFI nonsenses | 00:59 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee, could you please walk me through this | 00:59 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee, what do you need a screenshot of? | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, boot the live ubuntu environment and open gparted in the menu and take a screen shot of it and post it at a imagebin. | 01:00 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, I'm not good at walking people through stuff, so I doubt I can help you. | 01:01 |
| swaagie | reisio: reread, i'm not seeing what your after, my feeling is that would have probably worked if I wouldn't have done it otherwise to start with, looking for a way back from my failure | 01:02 |
| nishanth | if i boot on the live cd how do i have my xchat continue? | 01:02 |
| reisio | swaagie: have you tried doing that at all yet? | 01:02 |
| wilee-nilee | reisio Whats the key pressesto separate the channel from the list in a irc app | 01:02 |
| Zachintosh | Hello? | 01:02 |
| swaagie | reisio: of course | 01:02 |
| reisio | nishanth: continue? | 01:02 |
| reisio | Zachintosh: hi | 01:02 |
| rizal | nishanth, have you tried this ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 01:02 |
| reisio | wilee-nilee: ctrl+i? | 01:03 |
| Zachintosh | what are you people up to? | 01:03 |
| reisio | Zachintosh: stuff, things; you? | 01:03 |
| wilee-nilee | reisio, Heh, thanks hit it by accident, and forgot the keys. | 01:03 |
| Zachintosh | Trying IRC for the first time | 01:03 |
| reisio | wilee-nilee: yeah, that's a rough one :p | 01:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Zachintosh, This is support not chat. try #ubuntu-offtopic for chat | 01:04 |
| reisio | Zachintosh: right on | 01:04 |
| iklaros | Does Canonical have a paid support service for end users? | 01:04 |
| MrMonkey31 | quick question, ubuntu! anyone know a linux file manager that enables you to drag to or from an open file dialog in any program, e.g. while using gimp, save as, then before picking a name you drag some files into the save as list box? or am I thinking too 'windows'? | 01:04 |
| Tylertwo | nishanth, http://webchat.freenode.net/ will work for IRC | 01:04 |
| Zachintosh | Do any of you happen to know anything of the Chimera boot loader? | 01:04 |
| swaagie | reisio: purged, cleaned, and repeated the stepss again, I keep getting: The following packages have unmet dependencies:reisio skype : Depends: skype-bin | 01:04 |
| wilee-nilee | Zachintosh, would not be supported here. | 01:05 |
| reisio | heh, samuel | 01:05 |
| samuel | hello! | 01:05 |
| reisio | MrMonkey31: which have you tried that don't? | 01:05 |
| reisio | samuel: sup | 01:05 |
| samuel | reisio: hows it going? | 01:07 |
| reisio | samuel: okay, over there? | 01:07 |
| reisio | swaagie: autoremove? | 01:08 |
| MrMonkey31 | reisio, erm so far I've experimented with Files as included with ubuntu unity, and the viewer of XFCE whatever that is called | 01:08 |
| samuel | reisio: not bad, house flooded... been raining non stop for 2 days | 01:08 |
| swaagie | yup did that as well after purging | 01:08 |
| === vemacs|ded is now known as vemacs | ||
| samuel | this is supposed to be Mexico, not England | 01:08 |
| iklaros | MrMonkey31: xfce uses 'thunar', ubuntu uses 'nautilus' and you're right, neither of them do it. | 01:08 |
| reisio | samuel: probably warmer at least :p | 01:09 |
| reisio | MrMonkey31: try dolphin from KDE, then | 01:09 |
| iklaros | MrMonkey31: I can tell you PCMan doesn't either. I have never used Dolphin so can't comment on that one. | 01:10 |
| samuel | reisio: yes... at least we can still say that :_ | 01:10 |
| samuel | :) | 01:10 |
| MrMonkey31 | iklaros, thx, that's strange my distro came with the generically named Files. whether it's a stripped down nautilus I don't know, but it didn't look like the screens I'd seen of nautilus... | 01:10 |
| MrMonkey31 | well then, I'm going to duck out! | 01:12 |
| iklaros | MrMonkey31: Nautilus changed a lot, recently. Caused some controversy. ;-) | 01:12 |
| Smilex | I'm trying to run an apache2 server with the web root at a folder in my home folder, yet I'm get access forbidden for a sub directory. Why and how can I fix it? I've tried chmod a+r ~/web -R | 01:14 |
| iklaros | Smilex: Whihc user account is apache under? Your own? | 01:16 |
| Smilex | iklaros, how do I check that? | 01:16 |
| iklaros | Smilex: Is it a default ubuntu install? | 01:17 |
| Success | what is \xb8\x00\x00\x00 | 01:17 |
| Smilex | iklaros, yes | 01:17 |
| Success | \xff\xe0 | 01:17 |
| iklaros | Smilex: The user account for a apache is "www-data" then. You'd need to give that access. I'm going to recommend you don't for security reasons, but that's up to you | 01:18 |
| Smilex | iklaros, it's only for local hosting. I send it to a remote server for public use. Thanks | 01:19 |
| Smilex | iklaros, another question. Is that done with chown or chmod? | 01:19 |
| Smilex | also, chmod a+r should have given all users access | 01:19 |
| Success | chmod 000 -R / | 01:20 |
| Success | how do i recover from that | 01:20 |
| k1l_ | Success: i dont think that is to recover. | 01:21 |
| iklaros | Smilex: You need chown to create files though | 01:21 |
| swaagie | ok time for bed, this is hopeless | 01:21 |
| reisio | Success: the fastest way would be to reinstall | 01:21 |
| swaagie | nn all | 01:21 |
| Success | is there a way to do it without reinstalling | 01:22 |
| swaagie | thx for the all the hints | 01:22 |
| Smilex | iklaros, doing chmod a+r ~/web -R did not fix it | 01:22 |
| k1l_ | Success: that is impossible since you would need to set every permission of every folder and file yourself. | 01:23 |
| iklaros | Smilex: Yea, i said it wouldn't. Apache needs to own the files as far as I'm aware | 01:23 |
| reisio | Success: yes, but it'd take much longer | 01:23 |
| Success | you cant do chmod 777 -R / or something | 01:23 |
| Success | but that command fails for some reason | 01:23 |
| reisio | Success: you can something, but it'd take much longer | 01:23 |
| k1l_ | Success: that will not lead to a stable system. | 01:23 |
| Smilex | iklaros, ok thanks | 01:24 |
| Success | and what about my original quetsion | 01:24 |
| k1l_ | Success: boot up a live cd. save the files that are important to you to your backup and maka a reinstall | 01:24 |
| Success | what is \xb8\x00\x00\x00\xff\xe0 | 01:24 |
| reisio | Success: in what context? | 01:24 |
| iklaros | Smilex: When I see this MOST people change the apache account to their own, and have it run in their account. It makes me very sad though as it's utterly insecure. And probab;y a sackable if you work as a sysop :-) | 01:25 |
| Success | its in a c script insigned char = that | 01:25 |
| Success | but someone said it was mallicous | 01:25 |

| trimeta | The medibuntu repository just went offline. What's the best way to cleanly remove this repository from my system, using the command line directly? I could just remove my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list file, but I don't know if that would cause potential problems. | 01:56 |
| brainacid | got it | 01:57 |
| wilee-nilee | trimeta, gksudo nautilus and delete the medibuntu text, then run a sudo apt-get update. | 01:57 |
| brainacid | had an i386 cd in my drive...lol | 01:58 |
| trimeta | ...Nautilus? This is a headless server, all I've got is vim. | 01:58 |
| trimeta | But if you mean "edit the file and comment out the line which references medibuntu," that I can handle. | 01:58 |
| wilee-nilee | trimeta, Then whay did you have medibuntu installed? | 01:58 |
| trimeta | For codecs? I can stream from the server to other things...and honestly, maybe I had wanted to set it up as a HTPC at some point and ended up not going forward with that. | 01:59 |
| wilee-nilee | trimeta, all you have to do is remove the text file from sources.list.d | 02:00 |
| trimeta | Is there a way to check if anything currently installed comes from that repository? Or will running an apt-get update check that for me? | 02:00 |
| reisio | finally, a fun chat zone :p | 02:00 |
| moes | I have a /boot/grub/menu.lst in my file system on 12.04 when I boot menu.lst open first and I have to select Ubuntu to proceed to the ubuntu grub display. Can I remove menu.lst and not affect my Ubuntu grub | 02:02 |
| reisio | moes: what's listed, just 'Ubuntu'? | 02:03 |
| trimeta | Anyway, since "ls /var/lib/apt/lists/|grep medibuntu" returned nothing, I'm going to assume that means I had nothing installed from that repository, and the deleting the file left me in a clean state. Very good. | 02:04 |
| reisio | sounds like maybe you have GRUB "legacy" booting GRUB 2 | 02:04 |
| wilee-nilee | moes, menu.list is legacy grub you want to keep the grub 2? how do you have both? | 02:04 |
| moes | reisio, The title the (hdo,o) and an entry Kernel /boot/grub/core.img | 02:05 |
| moes | wilee-nilee, This was caused by a bad duel boot | 02:06 |
| reisio | moes: probably start with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 02:06 |
| wilee-nilee | moes, hardly explains it but okay. | 02:07 |
| wilee-nilee | moes, You can purge both from the desktop of the kept install and reload one and load the mbr. | 02:08 |
| moes | wilee-nilee, What if I just remove and purge menu.lst as there are no other files installed from the duel boot | 02:10 |
| dustinspringman | okay ubuntu server experts... need some help... | 02:11 |
| wilee-nilee | moes, If you want a definitive answer run the bootrepair app, just the bootinfo summary and post the url to that script. | 02:11 |
| wilee-nilee | dustinspringman, #ubuntu-server | 02:11 |
| wilee-nilee | I suspect they are experts | 02:11 |
| dustinspringman | wilee-nilee: thanks much, headed that way | 02:12 |
| moes | wilee-nilee, Okay thanks for the info | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | moes, I can't really say that removing a menu.list without knowing what is reallt there and where its at is all. | 02:13 |
| wilee-nilee | moes, I suspect all you really have to do is reload the mbr with the kept installs grub is all, sounds like the bad dual boot is still there and in the mbr. | 02:14 |
| dsnyders | Can anyone recommend a good context sensitive editor? | 02:19 |

| kieppie1 | got a new laptop, but does not have a contextual menu key, and my touchpad is somwhat sensitive (with no buttons), making click & crag & right-cick tricky | 02:28 |

| kieppie1 | Dr_Willis - essentially, yes, but the important one is to hook the context menu key/right-click 1st. cant locate that option in the keyboard tweak tool | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: looks like it found windows 7 to me. one is your install. one is your windows boot, or recovery p[artiopn | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | kieppie1: ive never done it. so really cant suggest more then to check askubuntu.com | 02:33 |
| kieppie1 | hmmm | 02:33 |
| kieppie1 | thatnks | 02:33 |
| kieppie1 | know how to call up the right-click/context menu from CLI? | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | kieppie1: if the grub menu does not show the 2 windows entries. then its possible you are booting the wrong hard drive. and booting a differnt grub. | 02:33 |
| nishanth | Dr_Willis : when i boot i dont see it as options | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | oops wrong nick. l) | 02:34 |
| kieppie1 | ;) | 02:34 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, do you use the arrow keys to go down the grub list? | 02:34 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee yeah | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: you could also put a custome grub entry to boot windows in /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: if your custom entries dont show. that would definatly point to grub not being the same as the grub you are booting | 02:35 |
| wilee-nilee | probably missing the boot menu, or there is no boot flag | 02:35 |
| nishanth | Dr_Willis so what do i have to exactly? | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | i dident think grub paied attention to the boot flag. but for windows booting.. not sure | 02:35 |

| wilee-nilee | fxhp, good for you. | 03:10 |
| wilee-nilee | he asked me a question I was just answering | 03:11 |
| somsip | cheapie: as fxhp says, stop htop on the remote. Run screen on the remote. Run htop on screen. then ssh from your PC and attach to the session of screen | 03:11 |
| cheapie | somsip: I'm going to go try that now.... | 03:12 |
| somsip | cheapie: and for screen, you can use tmux, byobu and...maybe others | 03:12 |
| fxhp | somsip cheapie I think screen ships with ubuntu | 03:13 |
| somsip | fxhp: ah. Always used tmux myself, but I live and learn | 03:14 |
| cheapie | somsip: I started screen (with the -R option, like some random guide online suggested), and started htop within that. Now what? When I go to the other terminal (and login as the same user) and run screen, I don't see htop anywhere. Just a bash prompt. | 03:15 |
| somsip | cheapie: you created a new session of screen. You need to do something like 'screen ls' to get a list of existing sessions then 'screen -a {sessionId}' to connect to it. | 03:15 |
| somsip | cheapie: Like I say, I use tmux so you will have to man screen to get the right commands | 03:15 |
| === OGRE is now known as Guest33376 | ||

| somsip | cheapie: Monospace? | 03:39 |
| cheapie | javanic: Doesn't Ubuntu ship with a file usage analyzer thingy? That might show you where they went. | 03:40 |
| dvineone | there is a terminal command that will show you what amount of disk space is being used file systems are using | 03:41 |
| === jack is now known as Guest99183 | ||
| javanic | <cheapie> I have no idea.. but it's strange, when i use gparted it shows that I have like NO space on my HD but I can still download large files. The only thing that doesn't seem to work is when I try to download updates | 03:41 |
| javanic | <dvineone> what is the terminal command? | 03:42 |
| cheapie | somsip: Unfortunately, I'm SSHing into the server from Windows, so that font isn't preinstalled. But, browsing through the list, I found "Terminal", which looks quite nice. | 03:42 |
| somsip | javanic: du -h . (fromt he directory you want to check). It will be slow in large directories | 03:42 |
| cheapie | javanic: That sounds strange... Does fsck complain about anything? | 03:42 |
| somsip | javanic: well, not slow, but excessively verbose | 03:43 |
| dvineone | df is the command | 03:44 |
| javanic | to be honest, my knowledge of how to navigate around terminal is very limited.. I was fluent in DOS but linux base is relatively new to me | 03:44 |
| dvineone | you will need to searchy the man page to see how to specify it to a certain directory | 03:44 |
| dvineone | or du may be it | 03:45 |
| cheapie | I think it's du. df is for the whole disk, | 03:45 |

| javanic | do updates download to a different partition then regular downloads then? | 04:00 |
| cheapie | javanic: You should be okay for a while then. The problem was that the kernels go in /boot, and you had a lot of old ones there. | 04:00 |
| javanic | <cheapie> thanks for the help! | 04:01 |
| javanic | <cheapie> does it have to do with how my HD is partitioned? | 04:02 |
| cheapie | javanic: Regular updates go in /, and you had plenty of space there. When the kernel (the core of the OS) gets updated (that's when it makes you reboot), that goes in /boot. | 04:02 |
| cheapie | javanic: Sort of. A bigger /boot partition would make it take longer to fill up. The only real solution would be to never update (not recommended), or to autoremove every month or so. | 04:03 |
| javanic | <cheapie> ok, so if it happens again i'll just do the autoremove.. thanks again for your help! | 04:05 |

| sunny_ | i can use qemu if there is not virtualization support ? | 04:47 |

| jmabudabi | Now I get confused in the comments and responses | 04:49 |
| reisio | qemu with kqemu might be comparable, but that's apparently not supported anymore, and it's kind of involved to use anyways | 04:50 |

| reisio | lmint: hrmm? | 05:10 |
| cfhowlett | lmint, ? huh? | 05:11 |
| lmint | I thought that Ubuntu had this feature that sent data to a server that was owned by the company that develops Ubuntu | 05:11 |
| lmint | I think users were complaining about the privacy implications | 05:11 |
| cfhowlett | !nounity|lmint, | 05:12 |
| ubottu | lmint,: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 05:12 |
| cfhowlett | !lens | 05:12 |
| zykotic10 | lmint: that's basically "off topic" here. but that would be an interesting fork. but if you use unity, then yes, everything you type into unity - does go back to canonical. | 05:12 |
| Paulus68_1 | freaky[t]: try out this guide http://linuxtutorialscratchpad.blogspot.be/2013/01/dual-boot-windows-8-and-ubuntu-1210.html | 05:12 |

| reisio | lmint: there's a package that helps amazon sell you things | 05:12 |
| reisio | lmint: it's uninstallable | 05:13 |
| cfhowlett | lmint, they're complaining about a feature in lens. to do without, logout, choose a non-unity desktop environment, login. no data sharing. | 05:13 |
| reisio | but if you aren't into Canonical, you can just use Debian | 05:13 |
| wilee-nilee | hehe its debian either way, ;) | 05:14 |
| reisio | but not Canonical | 05:15 |
| lmint | That seems like alot of trouble. No I am not interested in the operating system doing anything on my behalf, I dont understand why developers think that. If I want to buy something on Amazon for example, I will go to www.amazon.com and find it. By sending a users search terms to some server, this means that I would have to censor myself so as to not search anything I would not want Amazon and Ubunto and who knows who else to know about. That i | 05:15 |
| lmint | s a hassle | 05:15 |
| FloodBot1 | lmint: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:15 |
| cfhowlett | lmint, or use an official variant; kubuntu, lubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntustudio etc | 05:15 |

| Dr_Willis | this has been argued to death in the forums and at blog sites lmint. we really dont care to discuss it either way in this channel. its a rather pointless discussion even on the forums. | 05:16 |
| cfhowlett | lmint, you can negate the issue in less than a minute but using a different desktop environment or do a little more work and choose a different ubuntu. So easy a caveman could do it. | 05:16 |
| lmint | Signs of censorship here are already starting to appear..this is "off topic", now we cant type in a way that is interpreted as "flooding" | 05:17 |
| wilee-nilee | lmint, the lenzezs are unity only and can be turned off | 05:17 |

| foofoobar | Hi. So I get this strange wifi connection problems: http://pastebin.com/Dh9ijK1K I found a thread on the manufacture forums of my model (dell xps 13 with ath9 driver) where ppl suggest two different solutions: | 06:49 |
| foofoobar | 1) update kernel | 06:49 |
| foofoobar | 2) install a backport | 06:49 |
| foofoobar | This is the thread: http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/os-applications/f/4613/t/19515554.aspx | 06:49 |
| foofoobar | What is more "safe"? I dont want to lose functionality like the keys on my keyboard to controll background light | 06:49 |
| === mozzie- is now known as garson | ||
| Ben64 | foofoobar: safest would be to get a different wireless card | 06:51 |
| Tylertwo | what'stuBe27to | 06:51 |
| gulag2013 | foofoobar, always check the physical. You checked the wires correct? | 06:51 |
| foofoobar | gulag2013, the wires for the wireless connection? :D | 06:52 |
| foofoobar | The wireless ap is a connection I'm using a long time, just with a different notebook | 06:52 |
| foofoobar | Ben64, I cant replace the card of my notebook | 06:52 |
| Ben64 | you probably can, but i meant usb | 06:52 |
| foofoobar | uh, no. I dont want to attach a usb wireless every time | 06:54 |
| foofoobar | It would be nice to get this card working on ubuntu | 06:54 |
| foofoobar | I read that on windows it has no problems | 06:54 |
| foofoobar | There are also two suggestions on the thread | 06:54 |
| Ben64 | get a tiny one | 06:54 |
| foofoobar | I'm just trying to figure out which is the better one | 06:55 |
| Ben64 | can stay plugged in all the time | 06:55 |
| foofoobar | No, this is not a solution for me :/ | 06:55 |
| foofoobar | This notebook is new. I dont want to extend it because of a software bug | 06:55 |
| foofoobar | so .. backport or linux kernel update? :) | 06:56 |
| Ben64 | you don't want to extend the notebook? | 06:56 |
| Ben64 | what does that even mean | 06:56 |
| gordonjcp | foofoobar: I don't see anything in your paste that suggests a problem | 06:57 |
| cfhowlett | foofoobar, backport is the "safer" method I would say. | 06:58 |
| gordonjcp | foofoobar: have you filed a bug? | 06:58 |
| cfhowlett | foofoobar, Also, let me point out that LTS is the preferred OS so 12.04.3 | 06:59 |
| Ben64 | foofoobar: might help if you post more details, like what wireless card, what version of ubuntu | 06:59 |

| swaagie | day two* btw | 07:36 |
| Dr_Willis | actually i Might be usng xubuntu's on this netbook. Im not sure ;) its a cleaner layout then the default ubuntu lightdm look | 07:37 |
| NetCatty | Dr_Willis: that's just swell. Whoever thought that "trimming" the bottom panel would be a great idea? I cant read the last file name cuz it's been overlayed with the pop-up notification | 07:37 |
| Dr_Willis | NetCatty: cant say ive noticed. general gnome trend for the last few years has been to remove stuff and make everything cleaner if less functional. | 07:38 |
| NetCatty | Dr_Willis: is there a way to stop the notification pop-up at the bottom? | 07:38 |

| foofoobar | ActionParsnip, I found this thread: http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/os-applications/f/4613/t/19515554.aspx | 08:52 |
| tyteen4a03 | ActionParsnip, I installed texlive but terminal says command not found | 08:52 |
| foofoobar | They are suggesting a) a different kernel or b) a backport | 08:52 |
| foofoobar | As someone mentioned here, the backport might be the safer option to try | 08:53 |
| ActionParsnip | foofoobar: what is the output of: uname -a | 08:53 |
| Ben64 | foofoobar: try this or get a new card http://askubuntu.com/questions/301442/atheros-ar9462-wifi-very-unstable-package-loss | 08:54 |

| ActionParsnip | foofoobar: try the 3.5 kernel, or the 3.8 which are in backports. | 08:54 |
| foofoobar | It's the kernel/ubuntu version which was factory installed by dell | 08:54 |
| ActionParsnip | foofoobar: you could even try the 3.11 from PPA | 08:54 |
| Ben64 | dell kernel :| | 08:54 |
| Ben64 | what version of ubuntu is it | 08:54 |
| foofoobar | Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS | 08:55 |
| Ben64 | try what was in that link i just gave you, if that doesn't work then get rid of that dell stuff and try "linux-generic-lts-raring" | 08:56 |
| foofoobar | okay | 08:56 |
| foofoobar | thanks, I will read that thread now | 08:56 |
| JC_Yang | any simple command to remove files recursively according to a reference folder? what I need to do is to clear files and folders which I just unpack from tar | 08:56 |
| cfhowlett | foofoobar, so replacing the card isn't an option? | 08:59 |
| Ben64 | its always an option, and a pretty awesome one | 08:59 |
| cfhowlett | Ben64, not sure Dell didn't make hardware replacement very difficult a la Apple ... | 08:59 |
| Ben64 | usb would work too | 09:00 |
| cfhowlett | Ben64, true but ... I've seen and played with the XPS 13. Having to shovel in a USB after laying out 1.5 large would irritate me to no end. | 09:01 |
| Ben64 | like $5 lol | 09:01 |
| foofoobar | I have two usb ports. Blocking one permanent because of a wifi card - which is also already inside the notebook - is a bad option | 09:02 |
| foofoobar | Also i thought the "dell xps developer" would also has a good linux compatibility | 09:02 |
| foofoobar | makes me angry that I have to put time on this wifi issue now | 09:02 |
| foofoobar | bad dell work | 09:02 |
| cfhowlett | foofoobar, it does but ... seems the wifi issue is a common complaint | 09:02 |
| foofoobar | I will try the suggestion from Ben64 link now and see if it works | 09:03 |
| ActionParsnip | foofoobar: try the 3.11 kernel too, its easily rolled back | 09:03 |
| foofoobar | 3.11 kernel = linux-generic-lts-raring? | 09:04 |
| wander_ | I wanted to test RC of 13.10 but I can't find the image | 09:05 |

| k1l | foofoobar: scroll some down, there are named possible and working solutions to the wifi problem | 09:05 |
| Ben64 | only 2 usb ports? : / | 09:06 |
| Ben64 | anyway, this is the linux compatible wireless usb i use http://i.imgur.com/FMbPvPa.jpg | 09:06 |
| cfhowlett | Ben64, yep. hopefully, the 14.04 dell XPS 13 will add ports | 09:07 |
| foofoobar_ | awesome, opening the /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/essid file resulted in a freeze | 09:08 |

| foofoobar_ | It's not a WPA network, I think its because of this | 09:11 |
| foofoobar_ | I cant see if someone answered on my last question | 09:11 |
| foofoobar_ | ActionParsnip, is the 3.11 kernel the package linux-generic-lts-raring? | 09:11 |
| serapath | i managed to share a directory and access is from a windows computer on my local network, but i do not have write access. how can i enable that too? | 09:11 |

"file test" prints "test: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.24, not stripped" and I'm on a "x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux" 12.04 Ubuntu… What could it be? | 09:14 |
| ikonia | it-guy: what is "test" | 09:14 |
| foofoobar__ | ok, different computer for irc now.. | 09:14 |
| it-guy | it's a hello world program | 09:14 |
| it-guy | I wrote it | 09:14 |
| it-guy | If found that if I compile the test program with "gcc test.c -o test" it works fine | 09:14 |
| Rory | it-guy: Is it executable? (chmod +x test) | 09:14 |
| it-guy | I compiled it on a different machine | 09:15 |
| it-guy | yes | 09:15 |
| ikonia | it-guy: ok, so show me the output of "uname -a" please | 09:15 |

| ikonia | it-guy: right so straight away, it's a different kernel, although why you've put a reference to 2.6 in your code I don't know | 09:15 |
| ikonia | it-guy: what libraries does it depend on | 09:15 |
| llutz | it-guy: btw bad idea to name it test, "test" is a linux program and a shell-builtin command too. (does not matter in your special case, but. ..) | 09:16 |
| ikonia | I suspect the file not find error is a missing library | 09:16 |
| ikonia | which considering it's just "hello world" seems very unlikley | 09:16 |
| it-guy | ikonia: i think just libc | 09:16 |
| ikonia | so I suspect it's not actually a "hello world" program | 09:16 |
| it-guy | Well | 09:16 |
| it-guy | The thing is.. ok if I compile it like this: gcc test.c -o test it works fine | 09:17 |
| Rory | it-guy: How are you compiling it for it to not work? | 09:17 |
| it-guy | If I compile it with a Makefile that uses ldd with crt's it doesn't work | 09:17 |
| ikonia | it-guy: pleaes run "ldd" against it on the broken machine and pastebin the output | 09:17 |

| it-guy | ikonia: You're right, I tried it at one point with just the libc, but it didn't work either | 09:19 |
| it-guy | ikonia: should I remove all the other libs quick and try it again? | 09:19 |
| ikonia | it-guy: apologies, I don't believe you are being honest about what you are doing, and it's not really an ubuntu issue, so I'd suggest taking this to a C channel | 09:20 |

| ikonia | Americanu: it's for ubuntu support | 09:20 |
| Ben64 | Americanu: its only for helping with ubuntu | 09:20 |
| ikonia | it-guy: a hello world program does not need all those libraries | 09:21 |
| ikonia | it-guy: so I suspect it's not a hello world application. | 09:21 |
| Americanu | yeah that's what i meant...sorry if you guys didn't understand :) How do i make my webcam to work? | 09:21 |
| swaagie | MickS: btw dpkg.cfg.d is still empty so I guess that is intended | 09:21 |
| it-guy | ikonia: You're right.. I am actually programming a daemon right now and got the error message. That's why I made a hello world program to track down the error using the same Makefile | 09:22 |
| Americanu | i got skype..and i have a webcam :-? that doesn't get recognised... any tips? | 09:22 |

| buu | Niwreg: A) the files need to be 'owned' by the shared group B) you need group read/write | 09:40 |
| yogg | has someone an idea what i have done wrong? | 09:40 |
| k1l | foofoobar: just keep in mind, that you need to the last steps everytime you get a kernel update. | 09:41 |
| Enissay | Is there a way to monitor my lan traffic ? [who downloads a lot, what, ...] | 09:41 |
| buu | Enissay: Yes, ask your router | 09:41 |
| Niwreg | buu that's why i added user1 to the user2 group. and there is group r/w | 09:41 |
| foofoobar | k1l, okay, I will save this link | 09:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Enissay: ntop | 09:42 |
| serapath | in order to give "write" access to a user, i found this command: "chown -R user:user /path/dir", but i'm not sure what "user:user" means. from the help of "chown" i know its owner:group, but how do i know what to specify? | 09:42 |
| _gpg_ | i have an ubuntu machine on a windows network, to remote access this ubuntu machine i have to provide its IP ADDRESS, i would like to be able to adress it using a FQDN, for example mymachine.mydomain.com. what's the different steps to do please ? | 09:42 |
| MickS | Niwreg: does user2 have write permission on the dir of user1 where the files are in? | 09:42 |
| _gpg_ | i have modified my /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts, the administrator told me that he added it to windows domain, but some glue actions is messing somewhere | 09:42 |
| Niwreg | MickS no acces denied | 09:43 |
| Enissay | buu, ask him how ? his interface is pretty basic, nothing special | 09:43 |

| hitsujiTMO | yogg SSLCompression defaults to off ... is it enabled elsewhere? | 09:44 |
| Niwreg | but the dir i try to write to has group acces from user2 and user1 is in the user2 group | 09:44 |
| Niwreg | that's why i don't understand why it wont work | 09:44 |
| swaagie | MickS: yeah that 100% as well ;) I already tweeted mad at them yesterday | 09:44 |
| buu | Caelum: fc-cache? | 09:45 |
| Niwreg | is it possible that user2 can not log in? | 09:45 |
| Caelum | yeah thanks! | 09:45 |
| Niwreg | that that is the reason? | 09:45 |
| swaagie | since its microsoft now I doubt they care | 09:45 |
| swaagie | iin the end I can blame myself ofc | 09:45 |
| swaagie | for being reckless | 09:45 |
| foofoobar | k1l, it looks like it fixed it.. I got no disconnects so far | 09:45 |
| kali_eskrima | hi, i have a problem with wifi. i already tried to do few days ago, sudo...unblock all, and it worked, but when i swithced off my laptop, and started again is not working. it is saying AGAIN... "wireless is disabled by hardware switch".... can you please help,. i have been going through different google pages and ask ubuntu, but i cant figure it out... thanks | 09:45 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: rfkill is the command you are looking for | 09:46 |
| foofoobar | k1l, are you also using a dell xps 13 ? | 09:46 |
| ActionParsnip | foofoobar: oooh, what's the fix? | 09:46 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i tried.. is not doing anything,.. just brings me back to the new line for input | 09:46 |
| kali_eskrima | let me try again | 09:47 |
| MickS | Niwreg: user2 needs to have write permissions on the directory the files are in. Either via user or group rights. | 09:47 |
| it-guy | Can't find the package that contains "ld64.so.1" for Ubuntu precise 64bit | 09:47 |
| k1l | foofoobar: no. i used to have a dell vostro until it died some weeks ago | 09:47 |
| foofoobar | ActionParsnip, http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/os-applications/f/4613/t/19515554.aspx the post from "Posted by chicochaz on 27 Aug 2013 4:33 PM" | 09:47 |
| noob7 | hi all, I always thought that i686 is 32bit but typing lscpu tells me that my architecture is i686 but "CPU op-mode(s)" tells: 32-bit, 64-bit ->?? | 09:48 |
| foofoobar | I still ahve to wait some time to see if it looses the connection, but usually I lost the connection after I connected when I bootet | 09:48 |
| noob7 | so i686 can be either 32bit or 64bit? | 09:48 |
| abnyr | hgrh | 09:48 |
| abnyr | ghj | 09:48 |
| foofoobar | I think in about an hour I can tell if that fixed it | 09:48 |
| foofoobar | but looks good | 09:48 |
| MickS | swaagie: yeah, I still think it's odd that they bought it. Having MSN already and all ... maybe it's a recognition that their MSN product is inferior ;-) | 09:48 |
| buu | Niwreg: which group is the containing directory in and does it have g+rw? | 09:49 |
| yogg | hitsujiTMO: thanks for the help. I just found my failure | 09:49 |
| MickS | swaagie: however, this goes off-topic and there's other channels for that :P | 09:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | yogg: np | 09:49 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l so what now, should be fixed..no command necessary to input after that? because i did few days ago, i did rfkill unblock all / and unblock wifi and it worked, and after few days is back to not working. wireless disabled by hardware swithc..as previously said | 09:49 |
| swaagie | MickS: they do own the majority of voip now and can force-feed their users again, yeah agree :) | 09:49 |
| Niwreg | MickS it is his homedir so it should be writeable by user and group acces | 09:49 |
| llutz | noob7: you run a 64bit capable cpu on 32bit architecture | 09:50 |
| buu | Niwreg: Look this really isn't that complicated, make a few test files in a test dir, su to various users, chown to groups, see what happens | 09:50 |
| MickS | Niwreg: should be is an assumption, and assume makes an ass out of u and me. So please verify these rights. By default the homedir is not group-writeable. | 09:51 |
| kali_eskrima | Rory hi can you help me with the wireless? | 09:51 |
| noob7 | llutz, so i686 is always 32bit but can also do stuff like a 64bit cpu? | 09:51 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: do you have a hardware switch? or are you booting into windows? | 09:51 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: or are you having some fn-key setups on that? | 09:52 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: if there is no output after a command it means: "no error" most times in linux | 09:52 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i dont see or dont know where is th e hardware switch,.. i installed ubuntu 12.04 from windows 8. so i only have ubuntu | 09:52 |
| llutz | noob7: i686 is 32bit, amd64/x86_64 woul dbe 64bit. your OS just is 32bit, while your cpu is 64bit (which has no benefits now) | 09:52 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l its been giving me problems since i installed it... really disappointed. i have another laptoop with 12.10 working like a charm. this.. su**s | 09:53 |
| it-guy | never mind. /lib/ld64.so.1 normally is a symlink to /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 | 09:53 |
| llutz | noob7: 64bit cpu can run in 32bit OS fine, but a 32bit CPU cannot run on 64Bit OS | 09:53 |
| kali_eskrima | the fn F2 doesnt work. | 09:54 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i thought i fixed it few days ago..with that rfkill and updated all ...hm didnt work | 09:54 |
| ActionParsnip | foofoobar: you will need to rerun that every time you get a new kernel, so keep the source available, you may want to make a script | 09:55 |
| foofoobar | ActionParsnip, yeah I did :) | 09:56 |
| TheRiddla | Do any of you jokers recommend zorin OS? | 09:57 |
| noob7 | llutz, so i686 tells me that the architecture of my cpu is 32bit but it can work like a 64 bit cpu? (I don't get how the 64 fitts in into i686) | 09:58 |
| k1l | TheRiddla: since this is a ubuntu support channel: no | 09:58 |
| TheRiddla | k | 09:58 |
| TheRiddla | thx | 09:58 |
| llutz | noob7: your kernel/OS is 32bit (i686) | 09:58 |
| k1l | noob7: x86_64 is the 64bit part | 09:59 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l another thing. this 12.04 version in downloaded it from ubuntu/canonical. i actually purchased the original dvd 12.10, and guess what, is not bootable, so it doesnt work. so i was forced to download the 12.04 because i couldnt find the 12.10 download on the website. since i installed this current os 12.04 lts, i have been having problems, when it boots is says "could not write bytes" broken pipe"? and very often when im in | 09:59 |
| k1l | noob7: every other stuff like i386 or i686 is 32bit | 09:59 |
| noob7 | ok, but I can run a 64bit OS on my i686 architecture cpu right? | 10:00 |
| mgregson | noob7: No. | 10:00 |
| k1l | noob7: no | 10:00 |
| k1l | you need a 64bit cpu to run 64bit OS | 10:00 |
| noob7 | then why ""CPU op-mode(s)" tells: 32-bit, 64-bit" | 10:00 |
| k1l | it is just downwards compatible: you can run a 32bit OS on a 64bit cpu. | 10:01 |
| llutz | noob7: "architecture" shown by lscpu is your OS, not your CPU | 10:01 |
| noob7 | ah ok | 10:01 |
| k1l | noob7: what cpu modell is it? | 10:01 |
| llutz | noob7: its the kernel-arch you currently run | 10:01 |
| SoItBegins | I'm having trouble with my MacBook Pro's internal keyboard and trackpad | 10:01 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i wold get a message "sorry ubuntu has experienced an error". than i go to "additional drivers" and there is completley nothing?!! so that means that i dont have much with this version and its only giving me problems.!!!! it says "no propretary dirvers are in use on this system"... whatis this? i thought it might help you help me. | 10:01 |

| Frank81 | rm /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/scsi/sr_mod.ko | 10:14 |
| Frank81 | But don't forget to make some backups because you will not able to use cd-rom drive at all since next reboot after this operation | 10:14 |
| noob7 | found https://bugzilla.kernel.org/ it tells "...for posting bugs against the mainline Linux kernels (not distribution kernels)." Do you think it's ok to report there? | 10:14 |
| Frank81 | or look for a other cd driver that get used | 10:15 |
| Frank81 | this sr_mod.ko is the scsi stack for cd it normaly gets used | 10:15 |
| llutz | noob7: lscpu is part of util-linux, not the linux kernel | 10:15 |
| noob7 | ooops | 10:16 |
| minimec | kalakj: Try "eject -i on" once. That should lock the cd-rom drive. "eject -i off" unblocks it. | 10:16 |
| Frank81 | llutz any ideas? how i can find out where the grep ERROR comes from in ps aux | 10:16 |
| Frank81 | i don't know what did that grep and what should it grep for | 10:16 |
| llutz | Frank81: i'd guess it greps for "ERROR", some background-scripts. find the parent-pid of that process | 10:17 |
| noob7 | https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/ ?? | 10:17 |
| llutz | Frank81: check the time it started, check logs for cron-jobs running that time | 10:18 |

| geirha | sharpshooter: Right, so it fails because of that directory name. You can either change line 114 to $(MAKE) -C "$(KSRC)" "M=$(DIR)" modules or rename the directory to not contain special characters like whitespace and parenthsis | 10:45 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, ok | 10:46 |
| slarty | Anyone know what command to give Scribus to pipe a gnuplot graph to a scribus render window? | 10:46 |
| Dai_1987 | tsongki: why not? | 10:46 |
| tsongki | Dai_1987, i dont know how to access the .config/vlc | 10:47 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: start "software-properties-gtk" from a terminal | 10:47 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i sent you the website for the full text as you requested earlier... | 10:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | tsongki: rm -r ~/.config/vlc | 10:47 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i will do that now | 10:47 |
| geirha | sharpshooter: Looking close at the makefile, rename the directory like hitsujiTMO suggested. There's a lot more bugs in that makefile. | 10:47 |
| Dai_1987 | tsongki: it's in your home directory, just type rm -r ~/.config/vlc into a terminal window | 10:47 |
| tsongki | Dai_1987, ok wait ill try | 10:48 |
| Dai_1987 | tsongki: and while you're at it, type "vlc" into the terminal instead of launching it from the menu | 10:48 |
| lkeijser | hi, I want to run both proftpd and pure-ftpd on one ubuntu server but apt wants to deinstall one if I try to install the other ... Can this behavior be avoided? | 10:48 |
| ese | Hi in 13.04 is not longer possible to customize the mouse pointer like before by clicking System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Customize -> Pointer ? | 10:49 |
| kalakj | Frank81: NO | 10:49 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l ok i did unselect the cd room entries. waiting for further instruction | 10:49 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, I changed the directory http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221896/ | 10:49 |
| Frank81 | http://www.poweradded.net/2009/09/cddvd-tray-lockunlock-under-linux.html | 10:50 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, but still not working | 10:50 |
| Frank81 | then do this | 10:50 |
| Caelum | has anyone seen this from unattended-upgrades "ERROR Internal error while building a minimal partition.Cache has not allowed changes | 10:50 |
| tsongki | Dai_1987, thank you very much! | 10:50 |
| Caelum | seems like some sort of general error | 10:50 |
| tsongki | Dai_1987, it works | 10:50 |
| geirha | sharpshooter: right, but at least one step further | 10:50 |
| Dai_1987 | tsongki: no worries, maybe avoid using that skin again | 10:50 |
| marloshouse | lkeijser, i'm a little curious why you would want to run both? | 10:50 |
| hitsujiTMO | lkeijser: why do you want both? | 10:50 |
| noisignal | hello, can anyone help please? | 10:50 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: again the "sudo apt-get udpate &&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" command" | 10:50 |
| tsongki | Dai_1987, hell yeah! that was a very stupid idea. lol thanks again | 10:51 |
| kali_eskrima | ok k1l | 10:51 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, yes | 10:51 |
| lkeijser | marloshouse, hitsujiTMO: because we have customers that want implicit and explicit TLS | 10:51 |
| marloshouse | ah | 10:51 |
| marloshouse | not sure how to advise | 10:51 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i will paste the results now.. | 10:52 |
| geirha | sharpshooter: does locate ieee80211.h output anything? | 10:52 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: yes | 10:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | lkeijser: install one via apt-get, the other you'll have to manually build/install and set it up for a different port | 10:52 |
| Dai_1987 | noisignal: is there a key combo for it? like FN+<button with picture of antenna on it>? | 10:52 |
| lkeijser | marloshouse: I think my only option is to cheat and use LXC ... but I was hoping apt could be tricked somehow | 10:52 |
| ScottUbuntu | Hello. Does anyone know of a financial program for linux that allows you to keep track of your transactions while also having a forecast of your bank balance that includes scheduled transactions. Like AceMoney Lite on Windows? | 10:53 |
| marloshouse | lkeijser, yea, i'm no apt-expert, so i really can't say, but manually installing/building one may be your only option | 10:53 |
| noisignal | Dai_1987, no, there is no key I can see. I just checked all Fn keys to see if there is a change when I use them. but nothing happened | 10:53 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221900/ | 10:53 |
| Dai_1987 | noisignal: weird, and you're positive there's no HW switch? | 10:53 |
| lkeijser | hitsujiTMO: I'd rather not install anything manually as it'll be hell trying to maintain it, but yeah, next to using lxc it's probably my only option | 10:53 |
| noisignal | Dai_1987, yes | 10:54 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, above is the output of locate ieee8 | 10:54 |
| Dai_1987 | noisignal: also check BIOS, probably not there but can't hurt | 10:54 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, ieee* | 10:54 |
| geirha | sharpshooter: right, you have the file, but it's not in a net/ subdirectory like the code expects | 10:54 |
| foofoobar | k1l, so far no disconnects, I think this is the solution, thanks a lot! | 10:54 |
| noisignal | Dai_1987, yes | 10:54 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, so do i need to update the location in makefile ? | 10:55 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l done.. here is the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221906/ | 10:55 |
| noisignal | Dai_1987, sorry..I checked bios, network boot is enabled. this is the only one that seems related | 10:55 |
| noisignal | in the bios | 10:55 |
| Dai_1987 | noisignal: it seems that I can't help you, all I can say is try googling your laptop model, wifi, and ubuntu | 10:55 |
| noisignal | Dai_1987, thank you. I will try that way | 10:56 |
| geirha | sharpshooter: line 43 in ipwraw.c try removing net/ | 10:56 |
| ansu | hey folks. how do you deal with JAVA_HOME? I've installed openjdk 7 on 12.04 and now in /usr/lib/jvm I have java-7-openjdk-amd64 and java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd6 as symlink that points to the other directory. Do you set it in /etc/profiles or export it in every application's startup script? | 10:56 |
| noob7 | thanks for the help guys. I sent a mail to the util-linux mailing list. | 10:56 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, ok | 10:57 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: ok. your system is now up to date. what is your issue now? you dont find drivers? what dirvers do you want? | 10:57 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l it appears that it updated all without errors. now probably i have to restart the laptop to get in effect all the updates. and maybe the wifi will work. i have few more question to ask you but i will wait. no rush. is just bugging me because i have had problems since i installed this 12.04. even when i wanted to upgrade to 12.10 it completely crashed my ubuntu. couldnt do nothing. | 10:57 |
| kali_eskrima | oh yes | 10:57 |
| BluesKaj_ | Hey folks | 10:57 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: wifi drivers do not appear in that prop. driver section you mentioned | 10:57 |
| foo357 | Hello. I have a ubuntu server that's running samba and dishing out a share. I upgraded the machine from 10.4 to 12.04 and now I'm having some issues with it. I have a linux client that can't get the share but I also have a few windows client that can. | 10:58 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: the wifi gets managed from kernel drivers. not from external drivers like some video cards need etc | 10:58 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l oh yes ok good memory! i went to "additional drivers" and tried to get updates and it said "no propretiary drivers are in use on this system". should i be concerned? i mean sounds like i dont have any drivers. | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: if you run: smbtree do you see the shares? | 10:59 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: on the server or the client? | 11:00 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l so kernel driver is the terminal command? so if i do the update (as i just did, suggested by you the sudo command) thats how i updated my wifi kernel driver and should work in my next restar? | 11:00 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: no. i just means that you dont use drivers that are not included in the linux kernel already. if you have a nvidia video card you could need such a prop. driver to get better 3d support (for videos and videogames etc). but there is no need to use that driver since linux already got another driver which nearly same functionality in the kernel | 11:01 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l.. oh | 11:02 |
| krambiorix | how can i change the dot in a comma on my numeric keypad?? | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: both | 11:02 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: that command you did makes sure you got that latest version that ubuntu ships. but depending on make and model and other circumstances this could need some more work. but in general that is enough. | 11:03 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: but what is your actual problem? | 11:03 |
| icmpv6 | !crash | 11:03 |
| ubottu | For help debugging your program, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures | 11:03 |
| icmpv6 | i want to stop crash reports | 11:03 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221922/ | 11:04 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i actualy went to "sys settings" - details - and i showed no drivers there either for my graphics.. it says "unknown".? | 11:04 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, above is the error output | 11:04 |
| kali_eskrima | my actual problem is wifi... disabled by the hardware swithch. | 11:04 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i think now is or should be resolved.. will try in the restart soon | 11:04 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: please put "sudo rfkill list" into a pastebin. and put "lsusb" and "lspci" into that too | 11:05 |
| geirha | sharpshooter: what does line 43 of that file look like? | 11:05 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, #include <ieee80211.h> | 11:05 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, before : #include <net/ieee80211.h> | 11:05 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l and my next problem is ...oh ok. will say later what is my problem. been having problems with 12.04 and i get lost. im new to linux and ubuntu. and i really really want to learn. | 11:06 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l hold on,. let me do the command | 11:06 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue | 11:06 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: hmm, yes. The output on both machines are identical. | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: ok, can you ping the server from the clients? | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: does the output show the shares correctly? | 11:08 |
| Rory | kali_eskrima: Hi I am returned, could you summarise your issue on one line for me please? | 11:08 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l did it.. here is your link http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221936/ | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue | 11:09 |
| sharpshooter | geirha, what if we add change the path in line 43 to location of ieee80211.h | 11:09 |
| kali_eskrima | Rory thank you i have someone helping me already. i have another issue, but i want to first finish with the current issue im dealing. | 11:09 |
| frank____ | C | 11:10 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip what do i do? what that means? | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: run it in terminal and a single line will be output. Paste it to the channel please | 11:10 |
| blunblup | what do i type in terminal to find out my current user-session ? | 11:10 |
| Rory | blunblup: What do you mean by user-session? What sort of output would you expect? | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | blunblup: env will show you | 11:11 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: your wifi is still blocked | 11:11 |
| Rory | kali_eskrima: Are you dual-booting with Windows? It's possible the wifi is somehow disabled using the driver in Windows, and that might be the only way to re-enable it again | 11:12 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: yes the computers can reach eachother through the network, ping goes fine. I think the output shows the shares correctly, but I am not very familiar with samba | 11:12 |
| Rory | In absense of a hardware switch | 11:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | sharpshooter: what is the output of "uname -r" and "locate ieee80211.h" ?? | 11:12 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: the output is the shares which _you_ specified | 11:12 |
| k1l | kali_eskrima: there should be a hardware switch or a fn+… key-combination. or if you have windows too it could be you must not disable that wifi in windows | 11:12 |
| blunblup | ActionParsnip: ok done thanks | 11:12 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: its not a long command, what is output please? | 11:13 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, ouput of uname -r : ieee80211.h and output of locate ieee80211.h : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221951/ | 11:15 |
| hitsujiTMO | uname -r | 11:15 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, sorry typo outpu of uname -r : 3.8.0-32-generic | 11:15 |
| === Guest10239 is now known as jrib | ||
| hitsujiTMO | sharpshooter: you're running kernel 3.8.0-32-generic but you may not have the headers for it in /usr/src | 11:17 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, what should I do in order to add it in /usr/src | 11:17 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: ok what can I else do to determine what's wrong | 11:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | sharpshooter what's the output of: ls -l /usr/src/ | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: can you tell nautilus to connect to the share if you manually specify the share and server name in 'connect to server'? | 11:18 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221968/ | 11:19 |
| ItsMeLenny | is "File system is NOT clean." a problem? | 11:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | hmm, seems the file is removed from the kernel headers | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: is it NTFS? | 11:19 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: hm, well the "client" is another server more or less, it has no graphical DE | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: can you mount the share manually? | 11:20 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, Yes | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: then yes, Ubuntu will struggle with it | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: if you make sure you use the "safe remove" feature in your OS before you pysically unplug it, rather than just yanking it out. You will have fewer issues | 11:20 |
| ItsMeLenny | i have an external drive which never was a problem but now it is, but i think the fault in it is the controller board, and it took 10 hours to copy 10 gig, so now im putting everything onto this new drive and after 16gb i decided to check and it says not clean | 11:21 |
| loa | hello, my ubuntu unexpetedly halt, and i can't find any reason, it works good 99.9% of time but some times i found my PC with black screen and don't respond on commands | 11:21 |
| loa | what i can check? | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: plug it into a Windows PC, chkdsk it then use the safe removal option in the system tray | 11:21 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, do i need to create a link | 11:21 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, i wonder if thats what broke it, i would always use safe remove but it still has somehow played up | 11:21 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l Rory ActionParsnip sorry i had an emergency | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: run a chkdsk on it, should help | 11:22 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, i have no windows | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: then why use ntfs? | 11:22 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, would it work in a virtual box | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: maybe, i'd ask in #vbox | 11:22 |
| loa | is there way to reinstall system without deleting home if i have only one partition? | 11:22 |
| loa | i have crypted home folder | 11:23 |
| Rory | loa: Back up /home to another drive | 11:23 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, its what came with the hard drive, it was pre formatted, and the hard drive im putting it onto which i made NTFS is because i plan to take it out and make it external, its my one i take places so it needs to be compatible with other OS's | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | loa: yes, mount the partition and run nautilus using gksudo and delete all folders except home | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | You might be able to force the ntfs to mount read only. but really - if you have no windows - its time to switch that drive over to ext2/3/4 | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | loa: why do you not have a backup? | 11:23 |
| loa | ActionParsnip, it is too big for me. | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | loa: what if the drive IDE fails. Where is your data? | 11:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | sharpshooter: that could be dangerous ... whats the output of ?: ls -l /usr/src/linux-headers-3.8.0-32-generic/include/linux | 11:24 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS \n \l | 11:24 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l yes its still blocked | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: have you tried: sudo rfkill unblock all | 11:24 |
| loa | ActionParsnip, i want to save data, but it is not so expensive for 100% save | 11:24 |
| loa | all my really usefull data is in dropbox | 11:25 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, | 11:25 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221984/ | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | loa: then you can delete the folders except home and install to the partition using the 'something else' option. Set it as / but not to be formatted | 11:25 |
| hitsujiTMO | weird the file is there, just not showing up in locate | 11:25 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: Just a question. Is this a lenovo laptop by chance? Is only wifi blocked, or is bluetooth blocked too? | 11:26 |
| Dr_Willis | hitsujiTMO: you have recently yupdated the locate database? | 11:26 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: I'm looking at this site: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/SambaClientGuide and it says that you should be able to see shares by doing "smbclient -L //server -U user" ... how should the server be specified? | 11:26 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, is there something like chkdsk on linux | 11:26 |
| theadmin | ItsMeLenny: fsck. | 11:26 |
| kali_eskrima | Rory no it shouldnt be dualbooting. i had win8, i donwloaded 12.04 ubuntu and made a bootavble cd and installed and delited win8. i just have been having problems since then,,,,oh but wait,. maybe if i go to bios and check about the wifi... how do i do. what should i enable there. or disable. do you know? | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: for NTFS I would not advise using anything but Microsoft tools | 11:26 |
| ItsMeLenny | hmmm | 11:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ItsMeLenny: the ntfs checking tools just tag the disk as 'ok' i recall and dosent really fix anything. that can cause issues later | 11:26 |
| ItsMeLenny | ah | 11:27 |
| theadmin | It's a pain that FAT32 has this silly filesize limit. | 11:27 |
| ItsMeLenny | i rekon | 11:27 |
| theadmin | NTFS is a major problem to get working right :/ | 11:27 |
| kali_eskrima | k1l i dont remember disabling it anywhere. it just started doing on its own. in win8 it was working fine, actual perfectly. when i instaled ubuntu 12.04 it started malfunctioning.... maybe bios? i shoudl go there to see and enable/siable something? any suggestions | 11:27 |
| ItsMeLenny | i shouldve went with exfat | 11:27 |
| Dr_Willis | you MIGHT beable to force the ntfs to mount (read only perhaps?) with the ntfs-3g command. then read your files. but writeing to the disk may not be a good idea | 11:27 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: if only Microsoft could somehow find out how Linux based file systems worked..... | 11:27 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: There's a filesystem driver for ext2 and ext3. | 11:28 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: Is of free software, even. But I don't trust it much... | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: exactly, part of the OS, to allow users to access data | 11:28 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: ok by doing "smbclient -L //<hostname of server> -U someuser" I can see a list of shares. Anonymous login is ok too so I don't even have to supply a password | 11:28 |
| ItsMeLenny | Dr_Willis, i'm very slowly pulling everything off, im just worried about killing this new hard drive if that actually is the problem, but i feel its the controller board in this external WD | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | foo357: ok, mount away, is it ok? | 11:28 |
| ItsMeLenny | maybe i should just which to Ext4 | 11:29 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip yes did that few days ago, and it worked. than i started the laptop, didnt work no more. it says again.. .that the wireless is disabled by the hardware switch.... which i dont understand.. hm. it did it on its own. it was working fine with win8. and in ubuntu i fixed it few days ago and it worked. today no more, same old story again | 11:29 |
| Dr_Willis | ItsMeLenny: if the disk is to never be used on a windows machine. that would be a good idea | 11:29 |
| hitsujiTMO | ok, sharpshooter try changing from """#include <net/ieee80211.h>""" to """#include <linux/ieee80211.h>""" | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: do you dual boot the system? | 11:29 |
| ItsMeLenny | is ext4 actually alright for portability | 11:29 |
| Caelum | is there a cinnamon channel somewhere? no one in #cinnamon | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: Windows cannot ouch it as far as I am aware | 11:30 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, ok | 11:30 |
| ItsMeLenny | Dr_Willis, i think it will be | 11:30 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec no its asus x75a/ just the wifi blocked. the bluetooth i can switch on and off... | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Caelum: could try the mint channel | 11:30 |
| ItsMeLenny | is the problem* | 11:30 |
| kali_eskrima | i have lenovo laptop too and it works great, never ever had a problem. it runs on 12.10 | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Caelum: cinammon is also in the ubuntu repos, so is supported here | 11:30 |
| loa | Rory, ActionParsnip what do you think about stability issues? How i can detect them? | 11:30 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Hello, we have some issues with a Ubuntu 13.04 install. All the menues and launcher are gone and we cannot start applications (since the launcher is completely gone) | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: different hardware in the different system.... | 11:31 |
| ItsMeLenny | virtual box couldnt recognise it | 11:31 |
| hans__ | Looking for an evaluation of the last update | 11:31 |
| Dr_Willis | i noticed the qtrazor desktop is in the 13.10 repos. :) good to get more desktops to play with. | 11:31 |
| galaxyAbstractor | We've tried opening a terminal with ctrl + alt + t but it doesn't do anything | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | hans__: update of what? | 11:31 |
| Caelum | in saucy I can't seem to turn off screen locking, I checked the disable lock screen thing in gconf-editor and I turned it off in screen prefs, but it still locks on waking the display | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Caelum: saucy is not supported here til release day | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Caelum: ask in #ubuntu+1 | 11:31 |
| Dr_Willis | galaxyAbstractor: this is a brand new install? tell the channel your video card/chipset and drivers youa re using also. | 11:31 |
| hans__ | ubuntu 10.04 | 11:31 |
| Caelum | thanks | 11:31 |
| galaxyAbstractor | The only thing we can see is desktop and a couple of random files on the desktop, also we can open the settings dialog (but the apply button is missing) | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | hans__: on the desktop? | 11:32 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: Ok. I asked, because I had to reset BIOS to default settings on my last Lenovo laptop, after a battery power fail for example. | 11:32 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip no i dont dual boot. just ubuntu 12.04 | 11:32 |
| eivl | Is it possible to uninstall from apt-get? | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | eivl: yes | 11:32 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Dr_Willis: pretty much, I have no idea what kind of video cards these computers are using | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | eivl: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename | 11:32 |
| eivl | thanks ActionParsnip =) | 11:32 |
| ItsMeLenny | does linux do exfat? | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | eivl: man apt-get | 11:33 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Intel Q45/Q43 according to the System details window, Dr_Willis | 11:33 |
| ItsMeLenny | oh, exfat isnt supported in xp anyway | 11:33 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip. so different hardware in dif system.. means like i shouldnt have installed ubuntu and delited the win8? | 11:33 |
| Dr_Willis | galaxyAbstractor: well start with a 'apt-get update, and apt-get dist-upgrade' in teh consoles. to be sure the systems are up to date. Most intel video shoul dbe supported out of the box. | 11:33 |
| foo357 | ActionParsnip: If I try to do an anonymous login (just pressing enter at password promt) I get NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. If I supply a password I get NT_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER | 11:33 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: ... to get wifi work again. rfkill showed a 'hard blocked' wifi device in that case. | 11:33 |
| hans__ | yes. I've noticed strange behaviour after the security update yesterday and I want to know more about it | 11:33 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Dr_Willis: How do we do that? | 11:33 |
| ItsMeLenny | NTFS5? hmmm | 11:34 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec i see... hmmm maybe i should do to, but im afraid i mightnot know ho to do next. in case i fail to do something. | 11:34 |
| galaxyAbstractor | If we restart it only goes back to the login screen again | 11:34 |
| Dr_Willis | galaxyAbstractor: use the console.. | 11:34 |
| Dr_Willis | or text mode | 11:34 |
| eivl | ActionParsnip: i where aware about the man command, i just did not think about it first | 11:34 |
| Dr_Willis | galaxyAbstractor: alt-ctrl-f1 | 11:34 |
| hitsujiTMO | galaxyAbstractor: ctrl + alt + f1 | 11:34 |
| Dr_Willis | !text | 11:34 |
| ubottu | To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 11:34 |
| galaxyAbstractor | ah ty | 11:34 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Not used to ubuntu/linux | 11:34 |
| hitsujiTMO | galaxyAbstractor: did you do anything or try to install anything before this happened? | 11:35 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, here is the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/6222031/ | 11:35 |
| Dr_Willis | galaxyAbstractor: you may also want to install a fallback desktop such as 'lubuntu-desktop' which should work without any 3d drivers. | 11:35 |
| Dr_Willis | bbl | 11:35 |
| hans__ | Before actualize I would like to know if the update doesn't create a new problem. | 11:35 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: I don't know if you have some 'UEFI BIOS', or the normal 'old' BIOS. Normally a BIOS reset should not harm your machine. | 11:36 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, I guess the file that includes have wrong path's declared right ? | 11:36 |
| galaxyAbstractor | hitsujiTMO: We installed Virtualbox to run minix, and dropbox, that's all we did | 11:36 |
| ItsMeLenny | since its been formatted to NTFS using disk utility, if i just pull everything off and format it to ext4 will that effect performance, or should i do a write zeros pass first | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | hans__: desktop Lucid is EOL and no longer supported | 11:36 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, So i need to rewrite all those path in source ? | 11:36 |
| hitsujiTMO | sharpshooter: looks like theres a number of errors with the code | 11:37 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec http://paste.ubuntu.com/6222034/ | 11:37 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Hmm, unity is the desktop environment right? | 11:37 |
| sharpshooter | hitsujiTMO, I will work around with is and let you know if any problem occurred ! | 11:37 |
| hans__ | I understand, but in general: how to know about the problems people encounter after installing the security updates? | 11:38 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec yes i have the new uefi bios which really brought me to the extreme of brain. i really did an extensive reasearch for weeks, to then realize that i needed to disable secure boot, i even couldnt find it | 11:38 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Ah we solved it, someone probably had a grudge against us or something and removed unity -.- | 11:39 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec im used to old bios, its easy. i found out that the new uefi bios is set by the microsof to not accept linux programs . | 11:39 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip so what did you meant... | 11:39 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Installing it again solved it, but unity uninstalled all our apps :/ | 11:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | Sharpshooter: i'd presume that the module you're trying to build is written for a much older kernel | 11:39 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip what are your thoughts. or conclusion about different driver... | 11:40 |
| galaxyAbstractor | They even went as far as removing the software center lol | 11:40 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: That's the problem with that UEFI stuff. ;) I have no experience at all with UEFI, sorry. So it could be that you reenable secure boot, when resetting UEFI to default values. | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | kali_eskrima: worth a try | 11:40 |
| hitsujiTMO | galaxyAbstractor: prob a dependency conflict with one of the apps you installed triggered it | 11:41 |
| galaxyAbstractor | Probably Dropbox then, as virtualbox worked across reboots | 11:42 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, do you know if that disk utility is reliable, its what made the ntfs unclean in the first place | 11:42 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec i was thinking too, if i go back to uefi and re enable the secure boot while i have already installed ubuntu. i was wondering whats gonna happen. and yes uefi changed the game | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | ItsMeLenny: bad unmounts, sudden unplugs and power loss | 11:43 |
| kali_eskrima | ActionParsnip sorry i dont understand,. maybe i missed a thread u sent me.. what is worth a try.. i just changed from windows 8 to ubuntu. but im sure i completely cleared the win 8 and delited all and installed ubuntu. i must have missed something.....??? | 11:44 |
| ItsMeLenny | ActionParsnip, i mean i used it to format to ntfs, and its unclean straight away | 11:45 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: hmm... ('go back to UEFI') meaning, that you use the 'normal' BIOS option now? If that is the case, I would try to reset the BIOS. | 11:45 |
| hans__ | is there any webpage where the roll-out of the last security-update is evaluated? | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | hans__: you can read your own updates by reading /var/log/dpkg.log | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | hans__: I suggest you upgrade to Precise. Lucid desktop is no longer supported by the community | 11:46 |
| hans__ | thanks! I'm going to read that. | 11:47 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec no i meant this. when i finally figured out that secure boot was preventing me from runing the livecd ubuntu 12.04, when i was gonna change from win8, i actually disabled it | 11:48 |
| === anup is now known as Guest3466 | ||
| minimec | kali_eskrima: I certainly guess you tried the hardware switch on your machine. Looking at the images for your device the key shoud be the 'F2' key or 'FN'+'F2'. Just in case... ;) | 11:48 |
| kali_eskrima | minmec so now i wanted to go back to bios uefi and just re enable it while i have ubuntu os. i was just afraid to do it, becuase i didnt know what its gonna happen. will it let me still run ubuntu os or will again block me out like a dumb | 11:49 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec i tried that fn f2 is not working. like is freaking dead. | 11:49 |
| kali_eskrima | sorry the language. | 11:49 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec i got a bit upset because i have been having problems with this. and the worse thing is that i dont know much about linux and i really wish i would know more. to help myself | 11:50 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: And simply pressing 'F2'. Newer Laptops set the 'F*'-keys as second option, as the 'F*' keys are rarely used. | 11:51 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec so anyway i wanted to update to 12.10 few days ago,. and it downloaded the update, and when the system asked me to restart the laptop to give effect the changes, guess what... the ubuntu os and desktop wouldnt even start. like is broken, wouldnt even load to the sign in screen, for password. i just had some glichy image quickly and than black screen with underscore. no keyboard or nothing worked. you dont know how many | 11:52 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec i dont know if i told u but my wireless was fixed few days ago. i fixed it and today is like i never fixed anything... and i didnt touch no settings. all on its own | 11:53 |
| hans__ | No thanks, I don't want to change anything on this old laptop; Precise with the gnome-fallback does not behave like this 10.04 | 11:54 |
| whatever_42 | i just created a software raid using mdadm. how ever one hard drive is used as spare device? | 11:55 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: What you describe is a typical xserver failure. So after the update, the xserver hanged for the device. By the way... You should not update to 12.10. Either stay with 12.04, or switch to the newest release. That's my opinion. | 11:55 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: depends how you created it if you allocated a spare | 11:55 |
| hans__ | Nautilus is different in the fallback | 11:55 |
| hans__ | I'm only a user | 11:55 |
| whatever_42 | i did not want a spare device ^^ | 11:56 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: that doesn't change what I just said | 11:56 |
| whatever_42 | true | 11:56 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec so what means new realease... 13? where do i find it... and will my system have xserver error.,... failure. do you know what and why it happend while uploading to 12.10? | 11:57 |
| charnel | after upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10 after boot I am getting a blank screen and a cursor. How can I fix it ? | 11:58 |
| mrrcp | why are people upgrading? | 11:58 |
| mrrcp | whats the point to upgrade from a stable to a non stable? | 11:58 |
| * mrrcp shakes his head | 11:59 | |
| whatever_42 | how do i keep mdadm from creating a spare device? i am having 3 x 3 TBte drives. so basically i should be able to have 6 Tbyte right? | 11:59 |
| charnel | I wanted to try the 13.x | 11:59 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: what mdadm command did you use | 11:59 |
| whatever_42 | http://www.howinthetech.com/quick-and-dirty-linux-software-raid5/ | 11:59 |
| hans__ | ok so when there is an update available I would like to read on the internet the problems people encounter after installing this update | 11:59 |
| mrrcp | lol | 11:59 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec k1l helped me earlier by giving me the sudo update apt and i still have to restart my laptop to see if the changes took place. it might be working now. will have to see in a bit. i just needed to get more help on different things while i can speak to you guys while you guys can,. | 11:59 |
| mrrcp | ok | 12:00 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: Ok. So reboot and come back here. We will stay tuned. | 12:00 |
| mrrcp | X error | 12:00 |
| ciastek | I'd like to have an eye on root's mail on remote server. Is it a good idea, to install dovecot and receive messages with local client? | 12:01 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec will you explain me where to get the 13 or the newest edition ubuntu. and do you think will it crash again my xserver...? i really need to get my laptop to work because i have work to do, and i cant..... :/ | 12:02 |
| ItsMeLenny | i just dont partition the drive, so it appears as /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sdb1 | 12:02 |
| foxy1604 | Hello!! | 12:02 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: I guess you have a dedicated GPU in that laptop, and you were using the restricted drivers for the GPU, when you upgraded. That could explain the xserver failure after upgrade. | 12:02 |
| ItsMeLenny | ah, now see, ext4 is already using 50GB despite nothing being on the drive, how do i fix that? | 12:03 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: the integrated Intel i3-7 series GPU should not make any problems. | 12:03 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec who give me the restricted drivers.. and where did i found them,. i was just updating from ubuntu update... | 12:03 |
| hans__ | In the morning to you foxy1604 but i'm waiting on a response | 12:04 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: i even added the parameter --spare-devices=0 and it still uses one drive as spare | 12:04 |
| kali_eskrima | i see i have intel i5 | 12:04 |
| === Moccodo is now known as Moccodo|afk | ||
| ikonia | whatever_42: can you please give me the EXACT command you run | 12:04 |
| ikonia | not a link to an example | 12:04 |
| ikonia | the EXACT command | 12:04 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: ok. and there is no dedicated Nvidia AMD(ATI) GPu in it? | 12:05 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec i dont know.. | 12:05 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: sudo mdadm --create /dev/md1 --chunk=64 --level=raid5 --raid-devices=3 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 | 12:05 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec what is the command to find out what do i have | 12:05 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: ok, so can I now see in a pastebin, the output of "cat /proc/mdstat" | 12:06 |
| hans__ | After a security update yesterday i find strange behaviour (libreoffice-errors, fast link button bar in chrome dissappeared) | 12:06 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: can you 'pastebin' the results of the command 'lspci' for me | 12:06 |
| kali_eskrima | ok | 12:06 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: here you go | 12:07 |
| whatever_42 | http://pastebin.com/9hREYhj3 | 12:07 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec i think i did that beofre for k1l | 12:07 |
| kali_eskrima | let me see if its still active | 12:07 |
| hans__ | So from now on I would like to read peoples evaluation after installing updates | 12:07 |
| hans__ | cannot find where updates are evaluated | 12:07 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: no spare there, and the array is still building | 12:07 |
| faugusztin | whatever_42: http://serverfault.com/a/43581 | 12:08 |
| whatever_42 | then what about this? http://pastebin.com/Enn3MWnq | 12:08 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221936/ or this ? | 12:08 |
| whatever_42 | so the total array size is 6 TByte? | 12:09 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: "rebuilding" is the key word, your array is still being assembled | 12:09 |
| faugusztin | whatever_42: see the link i gave you | 12:09 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec http://paste.ubuntu.com/6221859/ | 12:09 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: Ok. Got it. You don't have any additioinal GPU. | 12:09 |
| hans__ | Is there a way to undo updates? | 12:09 |
| k1l | hans__: there is no evaluation. problems with ubuntu get reported to launchpad.net but 10.04 is EOL for desktop. | 12:09 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: if you look at /proc/mdstat you'll see there is no spare allocated | 12:09 |
| k1l | !bug | hans__ | 12:09 |
| ubottu | hans__: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 12:09 |
| k1l | !EOL | hans__ | 12:09 |
| ubottu | hans__: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 12:09 |
| hans__ | But I got a security update for 10.04 yesterday | 12:10 |
| auronandace | hans__: it is only supported on the server | 12:10 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: so the UU_ is normal? | 12:10 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: it's building, it should go to UUU when it's assembled | 12:10 |
| faugusztin | whatever_42: it is quicker for initial rebuild | 12:10 |
| faugusztin | whatever_42: the link i gave you explains it - it builds with spare, then adds it to the array | 12:11 |
| whatever_42 | ok. so can i start using it now? or should i wait for the assembly? | 12:11 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: god no | 12:11 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: it needs to be built befor eyou even consider putting a file system on it | 12:12 |
| ScUbun | I have a cosair M90 keyboard but the Numlock, capslock and scroll lock LEDs won't work on Linux. Any idea? | 12:12 |
| hans__ | Thanks! I'll be reading that, Ciao! | 12:12 |
| waykool99 | why did Canonical wipe the download URL's for Ubuntu Studio v10.04.4 LTS 64 bit DVD/ISO 1.7 GB? | 12:12 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: does this only apply to raid5 arrays? because i was able to use my raid 1 you see in the pasteebin before it was done | 12:12 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: you should not touch arrays until they are built | 12:12 |
| cfhowlett | waykool99, because 10.04 is end of life | 12:13 |
| faugusztin | whatever_42: you can use it, but it will totally slow down the rebuild process. | 12:13 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: ok. can i ask it to increase the speed? | 12:13 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: no | 12:13 |
| whatever_42 | or rather force it | 12:13 |
| waykool99 | but... they still archive studio v9.x | 12:13 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: no again | 12:13 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: flash the "BIOS/standard mode" firmware ? | 12:14 |
| cfhowlett | waykool99, some reason you don't want a *supported* version? | 12:14 |
| waykool99 | i found v 9, 11, 12, 13 but no 10.04 | 12:15 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: Ok. Back to your wifi... Can you give me the output of 'uname -a'? | 12:15 |
| whatever_42 | ok. when the device name sdX changes mdadm won't break? | 12:15 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: sorry what ? | 12:15 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: http://www.corsair.com/vengeance-k90-performance-mmo-mechanical-gaming-keyboard.html#tab8 | 12:15 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec thank you just a sec | 12:15 |
| ScUbun | I've just actually done that, ha! It works but then the Scroll Lock keeps flashing on and off. I've just set my keyboard to 16-bit with sudo kbd_mode -u and it all works except the Caps Lock LED doesn't. | 12:15 |

| whatever_42 | in case i plug the sata cable to another port on my mainboard this should change the label of the hard drive, right? | 12:16 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: did you used that WinLock+F1 too ? | 12:16 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: no, it should not change it | 12:16 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: and your mdadm config should be referencing uuid | 12:16 |
| ScUbun | Yea, the standard mode makes the board work like a charm but that flashing LED is annoying... lol | 12:16 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: so how do i do that now? i haven't rebuilded my mdadm.conf yet | 12:16 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: well yeah, that is a feature if you read the description :) complain at corsair forums :) | 12:16 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: how do you do what ? | 12:17 |
| ScUbun | I may just do that :/ I got my M90 to finally work properly. | 12:17 |
| waykool99 | i installed studio v10.04.4 LTS 64 bit for DJing in Second Life. my last ISO/DVD got a crack in it. *dvdisaster* worked for an hour trying to save the data, but no luck | 12:17 |
| whatever_42 | write the uuid to my mdadm.conf | 12:17 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: you're scaring me a lot, you seem to know nothing about the tools you are using apart from copying and pasting commands | 12:17 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: in meantime, duck tape can fix it :P | 12:17 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: *duct tape | 12:18 |
| Caelum | #ubuntu+1 is very dead :( | 12:18 |
| cfhowlett | waykool99, you were running the live session? why not install? | 12:18 |
| ScUbun | Any decent ubuntu/linux boards around without a windoz key? | 12:19 |
| waykool99 | installed it on 5 pc's for 3 years | 12:19 |
| cfhowlett | Caelum, last few weeks before launch? I'd assume they're busy as beavers getting ready | 12:19 |
| ikonia | ScUbun: it's called "windows" | 12:19 |
| waykool99 | i loved studio 10.04 | 12:19 |
| ScUbun | windohz* | 12:19 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: you have a mechanical keyboard, get yourself a custom linux keycap | 12:19 |
| ikonia | ScUbun: no, "windows" | 12:19 |
| ScUbun | Windoh? | 12:19 |
| cfhowlett | waykool99, using an out of support version is not recommended. | 12:19 |
| ScUbun | Oh yeah - never thought of that | 12:19 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: i wouldn't go that far yet maybe i don't express myself correctly | 12:19 |
| ikonia | ScUbun: I'd advise you not to push this, please call tools their proper names | 12:19 |
| ScUbun | All in jest ikonia | 12:20 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: I am going that far, you don't know how the array build process works, or how to read the output, how to build your config, how the devices are referenced, I'd suggest a bit of basic reading before doing anything more with the array | 12:20 |
| faugusztin | ScUbun: here you go : http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/os-mx-keycap-set.html they have linux and ubuntu keycaps, it is easier than hunting for keyboards with them built in, especially when you already got a mechanical keyboard | 12:20 |
| ikonia | whatever_42: thats not a critisism, but knowing the basics before going any more in depth may help you | 12:20 |
| waykool99 | i imagine its not recommended but for advanced audio production, its still the best OS | 12:20 |
| icmpv6 | ikonia | 12:21 |
| ScUbun | Thanks :) | 12:21 |
| ikonia | icmpv6: yes ? | 12:22 |
| icmpv6 | ikonia | 12:22 |
| ikonia | icmpv6: what ? | 12:22 |
| icmpv6 | pici? | 12:22 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec be right back | 12:22 |
| Caelum | ubuntu keycaps? you can just get a couple of stickers... | 12:22 |
| Caelum | or put some electrical tape over them | 12:23 |
| ScUbun | I built this system for gaming on but don't really have the time anymore. It's kinda overkill - just removed Windows 8 as I cannot stand Metro. | 12:23 |

| ionutica-99 | I need a way to remove all the apps that come with ubuntu so that I only remain with CLI | 12:24 |
| ikonia | ionutica-99: why ? | 12:25 |
| ikonia | ionutica-99: why do you need to do that ? | 12:25 |
| Caelum | ionutica-99: install server version | 12:25 |
| whatever_42 | ikonia: yeah you're right. i'll do that. thanks for now | 12:25 |
| ionutica-99 | well I want to install a display manager and a de of my own | 12:25 |
| ScUbun | I forgot to ask, I have my ubuntu installation on an SSD, is there anything I should be concerned about? I'd like to prolong the life of my SSD as long as possible. | 12:25 |

| ubottu | ionutica-99: 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 | 12:25 |

| tangorri | hi | 12:27 |
| ionutica-99 | it needs the proper goodbye sudo apt-get autoremove --purge ubuntu* | 12:27 |
| tangorri | just installed ubuntu13 on vm, but something as gone wrong as it ask me to login with ubuntu13 accout, what would be the default password please ? | 12:27 |
| Caelum | ionutica-99: making up commands isn't going to work | 12:29 |
| lesshaste | Caelum, what does discard do? | 12:29 |
| Caelum | ionutica-99: you can just run tasksel and remove unity and install the de of your choice | 12:29 |
| Caelum | lesshaste: turn on trim | 12:30 |
| lesshaste | Caelum, do you get any warnings when your ssd starts to corrupt? | 12:30 |
| Caelum | ssds don't do that | 12:30 |
| Americanu | hello there | 12:30 |
| abangg | helllo | 12:30 |
| lesshaste | Caelum, sorry but what does trim do? | 12:30 |
| Americanu | can someone tell me why steam gives me the error: glXChooseVisual failed , i'm using ATI Radeon HD 3200 :) | 12:31 |
| abangg | can i ask something about linux? | 12:31 |
| mrrcp | !ask | 12:31 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 12:31 |
| Caelum | lesshaste: it rebalances the data so that the flash chips don't wear out as fast | 12:31 |
| abangg | i also wan to ask about steam | 12:31 |
| lesshaste | Caelum, ok.. and what happens when a flash chip does wear out? | 12:31 |
| tangorri | ubuntu should allow azerty on login | 12:31 |
| lesshaste | Caelum, what are the symptoms? | 12:31 |
| Caelum | lesshaste: it won't write to that chip anymore | 12:32 |
| lesshaste | Caelum, oh.. that's quite nice. | 12:32 |
| lesshaste | Caelum, so you don't lose data | 12:32 |
| abangg | i cannot update steam when i install.. .. how to update? i got error.. | 12:32 |
| Americanu | what error abangg? | 12:32 |

| ItsMeLenny | ive completely failed at trying to mount ntfs via "mount", any help? | 12:36 |
| === ScUbun_ is now known as ScUbun | ||
| ikonia | ItsMeLenny: you have to provide more info | 12:37 |
| ItsMeLenny | mount: can't find /dev/sdd1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 12:37 |
| ikonia | ItsMeLenny: what command are you typing | 12:37 |
| ItsMeLenny | sudo mount -r /dev/sdd1 | 12:37 |
| ikonia | ItsMeLenny: that's never going to work | 12:37 |
| abangg | can i use graphic card HD 5450 in ubuntu?? | 12:37 |
| ikonia | ItsMeLenny: have you put the entry in /etc/fstab ? | 12:37 |
| abangg | to play games.. | 12:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | Zhades: it could just be taking a while to run? why not use the normal iso? | 12:37 |
| Zhades | hitsujiTMO: my internet connection to the vsphere is horrible | 12:38 |
| ItsMeLenny | ikonia, i thought it was somehow in there automatically.. | 12:38 |
| ikonia | nope | 12:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | zhades ... ssh to the host and wget the iso to the datastore ... that way the iso is on the server | 12:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | you can then just mount it from the datastore rather than mounting from client | 12:39 |
| ItsMeLenny | ikonia, is there a different command that doesnt require adding to fstab | 12:39 |
| ikonia | ItsMeLenny: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdd1 /where/you/want/to/mount/it | 12:40 |
| ceil | what's wrong with adding to fstab? | 12:40 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec did you got my uname | 12:40 |
| ItsMeLenny | ikonia, how would i add read only to that? | 12:40 |
| Zhades | hitsujiTMO: yeah, i tried that, the problem is my server provider is setting up ssh till the next week (some holiday or something) that means this is actually the only way i can install it, at least to my knowledge... | 12:41 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: yes. | 12:41 |
| ikonia | -o rw | 12:41 |
| ikonia | ItsMeLenny: why don't you do a bit of basic research before just trying random commands | 12:41 |
| Zhades | Zhades: ever tried a scp/ssh conversion? | 12:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | Zhades: can you no enable ssh yourself in the client? | 12:42 |
| === ghostcube is now known as Guest46159 | ||
| ItsMeLenny | ikonia, i had | 12:42 |
| ItsMeLenny | id been to about 20 different sites and did what they said | 12:42 |
| ItsMeLenny | also, wouldnt rw mean read write? | 12:42 |
| ikonia | sory ro | 12:43 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: So it looks, that newer kernels or ubuntu versions could have better support for your card. I would try to boot a 13.10 live install on a usb stick or cdrom. See how it works. | 12:43 |
| Zhades | i don't see any option in the vsphere, i can only set some vm essentials like ram or cpu, but i can't go to the machine nor the direct console it is disabled till my provdied activates ssh | 12:43 |
| ItsMeLenny | ikonia, ok that finally mounted, thankyou very much | 12:44 |
| Zhades | if i surpass the firewall would it be a violation even if i am the customer? | 12:45 |
| Zhades | s/the/their | 12:45 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: I don't know whethter that solves your 'hard blocked' problem, but again there I would consider a 1. test hardware switch; 2. try rfkill; 3. reset BIOS. | 12:45 |
| abangg | i try install again..(steam) | 12:45 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec ok thanks, i will restart my system and see what next., one more thing, i would like to go into bios when i will be restarting my system. how do i enter the bios? im using asus x75a. i want to see if my wifi is disconnected. and do you know if i enable back secure boot, will it in ANY way alter my current ubuntu os? i mean if i do enable it, what will hapen, or is there even any point enabling back again secure boot? | 12:46 |
| aalecs | i used dpkg get selections, set selections, apt-get -u dselect-upgrade and it installed me x86 and I am on x64... | 12:46 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec what is live cd,,, bootable cd? is the same? | 12:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | zhades goto config tab on host. goto security profile. hit property on services and enable ssh service | 12:46 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: that depends on the brand. search for 'asus access bios' on the web. | 12:46 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: The thing you booted up to install ubuntu. | 12:47 |
| abangg | i got this fatal error | 12:47 |
| abangg | steam need to be online to update please conform | 12:47 |
| Zhades | hitsujiTMO: security profile is grayed, i can't click it | 12:48 |
| abangg | your network connection | 12:48 |
| hitsujiTMO | ahh, your account doesn't have permissions then :( | 12:48 |

| kali_eskrima | minimec ok. 1 where do i find hardware switch? and how to test it? 2 refkill already did.... couple of times today 3. how to reset bios? | 12:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | Zhades, the only thing i can suggest is to just wait at that point if the install, it could simply just be downloading a lot of data | 12:49 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec oh ok i will download from website 13. something (i forgot) and boot the ubuntu on it. | 12:50 |

| fidel | as a first step | 12:59 |
| fidel | and you should only mess with that if you have issues right now - as messing with gfx-drivers isnt always that trouble-free ;) | 12:59 |

| kali_eskrima | minimec ok i restarted the laptop. the button f2 and than fn f2 dont work. the wifi still is greyed out and still says that is disabled by hardware. which i cant understand,. what hardware??? and then i went into uefi bios, and the nework and wifi are unlocked. so it should be good. | 13:11 |

| faugusztin | qwebirc74224: or use a client which shows the list, like xchat | 13:16 |

| ionutica-99 | wm? what's that | 13:32 |
| mircoblitz | Cant, then theres a wrong php version on teh system wich breaks our site | 13:32 |
| ionutica-99 | anything except twm(what I use now, temporarely) | 13:33 |

| ionutica-99 | now how do I install it in ubuntu minimal | 13:35 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec so i was just wondering if the wifi disabled by hardware switch is a bug or my laptop is tripping out | 13:36 |
| ikonia | ionutica-99: just insall lubuntu | 13:36 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: Did that happen after a kernel update? Otherwise I see no reason for that behaviour. | 13:36 |
| ikonia | ionutica-99: it's a lightweight dsitro | 13:36 |
| ikonia | distro | 13:36 |
| geirha | ionutica-99: you could install lubuntu-desktop that gives you lxde plus whatever else is installed in a fresh lubuntu install | 13:36 |
| usuario | hi | 13:37 |
| usuario | i use linuxmint 14, cant install whatspp ? | 13:37 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: As I told you, I had similar problems. Resetting the BIOS worked in my case, but that was'good old BIOS', not UEFI. | 13:37 |
| ionutica-99 | no I will google and find a untouched version of LXDE for ubuntu | 13:37 |
| ikonia | usuario: nothing to do with ubuntu - nothing to do with this channel, as you know | 13:37 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec im not too sure. i think i just installed ubuntu 12.04 and i couldnt connect after few days. | 13:37 |

| ionutica-99 | it's not hard everything is so easy after playing with arch | 13:38 |
| ionutica-99 | apt-get install lxde | 13:38 |

| ionutica-99 | it's the way I like it to install only the programs I need | 13:39 |
| kali_eskrima | minimec will try install 13.10 | 13:39 |
| wawrek | the docs and forum posts seem to be about previous releases | 13:39 |
| ikonia | ionutica-99: and you will miss important dependencies as everything in ubuntu is designed to work together. | 13:39 |
| minimec | kali_eskrima: ok. no. problem. Good luck witch the 13.10 live disk | 13:39 |
| ionutica-99 | those can be installed later | 13:40 |
| ionutica-99 | relax apt-get install lxde only install WM | 13:40 |
| ikonia | ionutica-99: right...so you'll end up needing them, so why not use the correct meta package to get them in at the right time | 13:40 |
| ionutica-99 | If you want to use the Lubuntu-packages (for Ubuntu-based systems), type apt-get install lubuntu-core lubuntu-icon-theme lubuntu-restricted-extras. | 13:40 |

| ActionParsnip | James0r2: you can report bugs if you find an issue | 13:56 |
| Rory | subby1: Mostly if there is a power loss or something halfway through an operation | 13:56 |
| Rory | subby1: Other drives won't be affected, because they are not being changed. | 13:57 |
| subby1 | kickrox: k jst tell me ...wuld my partitions " other fan the ubuntu" go under data loss??? | 13:57 |
| subby1 | Rory: thanks... | 13:57 |
| Rory | subby1: Other partitions *on the same drive* could be affected | 13:57 |
| Rory | subby1: But it is not something you should be very worried about, it is rare. Back up first to be sure | 13:58 |
| subby1 | Rory: so I can assume the drive where I hv installed Windows will not be affected...? | 13:59 |

| zykotick9 | vionx: i'm assuming you copied them to your mp3 player (which 99% is FAT filesystem), so all ownership *nix permission stuff, would be lost. so no, it's not ownership/permission problem. | 14:24 |

| hylian | ionutica-99: the short answer is no, the long answer is yes, as long as you use something other than openbox. LXDE sits on top of another window manager, the default being openbox. | 14:29 |

| Ahwan | after installing ubuntu .... when I login to the system keyboard & mouse stop working .. why ? plz help | 14:32 |
| hylian | ionutica-99: it's not impossible. it would just take some research into what window managers allow for rounded corners, and how to implement lxde with those window managers. Openbox is by far the best window manager (in my opinion, ofcoarse) and so it's the default. | 14:32 |

| hylian | hitsujiTMO: you probably aren't using a 3 year old laptop from Walmart. | 14:59 |

| hylian | ionutica-99: have what.. xfce? | 15:00 |
| ionutica-99 | hylian no lxde | 15:00 |
| hitsujiTMO | no but i'm using a really crappy processor with a really crappy graphics support so had to install unity-tweak-tool to disable the blur effect in unity to get it to run smoothly | 15:00 |
| hylian | ionutica-99: you are asking me if you can have lxde? I think i don't understand your question. | 15:01 |
| ionutica-99 | hylian your lxde theme | 15:01 |
| ionutica-99 | hylian I asked about the theme | 15:01 |
| repudiate | k1l: I have irssi, and I use ALT+E to switch to Window 13, but it interferes with the EDIT MENU on what I think is the UNITY BAR. I can use ESC+E on irssi to do the same exact thing that I want, but I'd rather either disable that bar on the top when a window is open, or disable it entirely. How can I do this? | 15:01 |
| cruisereg | hmmm | 15:01 |
| hylian | hitsujiTMO: i didn't know that was an option. this lappy locks up alot on unity whenever i try to go into the menu section. | 15:01 |
| JohnGrisamore | hmmmm | 15:01 |
| ionutica-99 | ok let me try to reboot again to see if the error happens | 15:02 |

| hitsujiTMO | hylian: yeah thats the blur effect ... disable it and it will run smooth | 15:02 |
| hylian | ionutica-99: i use xfce, not lxde. the theme I use comes from the generic Lubuntu install. (I mean vanilla, because Lubuntu is beautiful) | 15:02 |
| k1l | repudiate: i am quite sure alt+e will not only trigger on unity but on other desktops enviroments as well | 15:03 |
| repudiate | k1l: I have irssi, and I use ALT+E to switch to Window 13, but it interferes with the EDIT MENU on what I think is the UNITY BAR.

How can I do this? | 15:03 |
| hylian | ionutica-99: i was suggesting xfce because it is only marginally harder on resources and has things like rounded corners (based on theme you choose) | 15:03 |
| === cruisereg is now known as CrazyReg | ||
| repudiate | k1l: k1l There is nothing I can do, to preclude that trigger | 15:03 |

| abd-allah | pls help | 15:12 |
| abd-allah | I'm using Firefox on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 15:12 |
| hylian | abd-allah: right click the file, and then oe of the choices is what to open it with | 15:12 |
| Rory | hylian: install "unity-tweak-tool" from the repositories, and disable blur on the dash; that made the biggest change for me | 15:12 |
| figgycity50 | hi | 15:12 |
| hylian | Rory: so that is probably the biggest/only thing to worry about then? | 15:13 |
| hitsujiTMO | hylian: don't know of any walkthru ... i just played with unity-tweak-tool till i was happy ... The main thing is disabling background blur in search | 15:13 |
| abd-allah | @hylian I do it but it opens a blank page in firefox then opens in gedit actually. | 15:13 |

| hylian | hitsujiTMO: ok, thanks. I was just curious, it seems you are quite a bit more familiar with it than I am. as much as I like unity though, i think it will be a hard sell for me, because XFCE rocks. it's by far my fave de or window manager, and I have tried them all. | 15:14 |
| hitsujiTMO | hylian: disabling blur there also disables it for the switcher | 15:14 |

| grendal-prime | now there is one slot on the machine with a 90 degree on it | 15:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | oerheks: asp != asp.net | 15:19 |
| hylian | grendal-prime: if it looks like the letter L then it is a sata slot, not pcie. | 15:20 |
| hylian | grendal-prime: i should say, if it is rather small and looks like the letter L... | 15:20 |
| grendal-prime | riser type deal the card i have is a pcie X1 i think ...rocketraid pcie card that is. | 15:20 |
| === squirrel is now known as Guest48789 | ||
| grendal-prime | ok back to the slot.., it has the right config ..the pcie card fits into it .. | 15:21 |
| hylian | grendal-prime: is this a server? because on regular desktops, there is usally only one pcie slot, and that is slated for graphics card use (usually) | 15:21 |
| grendal-prime | and is flush to the frame and whatnot. | 15:22 |
| grendal-prime | yes its a dell server | 15:22 |

| grendal-prime | hylian, it initially it comes up and as soon as it starts the boot up it goes black | 15:30 |

| ActionParsnip | abd-allah: there is no single folder they are stored in like windows | 15:37 |
| drmagoo | Eagleman, yes, you can use LVM for that. Although if you already have data on the first disc, then you need to move that before you start setting lvm up. | 15:37 |
| ActionParsnip | abd-allah: libs are stored once in the HDD and are only loaded once into RAM if multiple apps need it, | 15:38 |
| greg-44 | Ben64, ah ok. | 15:38 |
| abd-allah | how can i locate an app like xchatIRC?? | 15:38 |
| Malsasa | abd-allah: check your /usr/bin | 15:38 |
| grendal-prime | ati rage XL | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip | abd-allah: the binaries you run are in various places too depending on tas | 15:38 |

| greg-44 | hylian, okok | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip | abd-allah: apps dont install to a single place like they do in windows | 15:38 |
| Eagleman | drmagoo, so when for example one of those 2 disks die in like a year, i will loose data on both disks since they are both in the same LVM Pool? | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip | abd-allah: why do you ask? | 15:38 |
| Ben64 | greg-44: i'd suggest not running an irc server unless you know exactly what you're doing | 15:38 |

| Rory | hylian: abd-allah That guide won't help because they need to be installed in Wine. If you look in PlayOnLinux's options there should be a way to install the Microsoft Fonts from there | 15:52 |

| Rory | bibi346: yes | 15:58 |
| Rory | abd-allah: Go to Install a Program -> Other -> Microsoft Fonts | 15:58 |
| Zal | bibi346, "echo $SHELL" to find out | 15:58 |
| hylian | ionutica-99: there is such a thing as free pascal? I did some programming work in turbo pascal for the mac classic back in the late 80's.. hmm. I didn't think it was even around anymore. Is it from borland like turbo was? | 15:58 |

| Zal | bibi346, shell is what interprets the commands you type. Terminal is how you see and interact with the shell. A shell can exist without a terminal, but you can't see it. | 16:02 |
| Denza252 | someone help | 16:05 |

| Denza252 | E:GPG error: http://repo.steampowered.com precise Release: The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2 | 16:05 |
| bibi346 | Zal: so for example why is there "bash autocompletion" package, it's completing commands before I execute them, it's on terminal level not the shell right? | 16:06 |
| Rory | Denza252: Can you please run the command "sudo apt-get update" and put the output on http://paste.ubuntu.com | 16:06 |
| Denza252 | Rory, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6223084/ | 16:07 |
| bibi346 | Zal : oh or maybe it's interacting with the shell when I press tab to get completion? then I understand | 16:07 |
| * Denza252 pokes Rory | 16:08 | |
| Zal | bibi346, "autocompletion" means that the shell will guess and complete the words you're about to type, so you can type less. It's in the shell, but pretty useless without a terminal since you wouldn't otherwise be able to type in the shell. | 16:08 |
| Zal | bibi346, right | 16:08 |
| luminous | oes the official PPA keep around previous releases | 16:08 |
| luminous | *does | 16:08 |
| bibi346 | Zal: ok thanks I think I understand the difference | 16:09 |

| rawrmonster | Tylertwo: reason i say is it says "fatal server error: server is already active for display 0" | 16:35 |
| Tylertwo | rawrmonster, gotcha, sounds like it's an issue with the GUI. I'm not sure about how you should proceed | 16:36 |

| wolfybox | how do i run a python script? | 17:57 |
| hitsujiTMO | wolfybox: python scriptname.py | 17:58 |
| wolfybox | ok | 17:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | thats one way of doing it | 17:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | if its +x and starts with a shebang then you can just: ./scriptname.py | 17:59 |
| feeshon | wolfybox: What version of python was it written for? | 17:59 |
| wolfybox | idk | 17:59 |
| wolfybox | the script is going to install python 2.7.5 | 17:59 |
| asdasfsd | hi all, i want to install Ubuntu on one really old laptop: acer travelmate 8004LMi. What version is best for this. I try 10.10 only in LiveCD, working really hard. | 18:00 |
| feeshon | wolfybox: puppylinux | 18:00 |
| wolfybox | what?? | 18:00 |
| TJ- | wolfybox: What script? Python should be installed via the package manager | 18:01 |
| feeshon | wolfybox: There is a distro called puppylinux, very lean. ubuntu isn't the leanest flavors of linux | 18:01 |
| hitsujiTMO | asdasfsd: give 12.04 a try | 18:01 |
| MonkeyDust | asdasfsd one reason may be, that 10.10 is !eol, that is: dead | 18:01 |
| msbrown | wolfybox: xubuntu is also pretty lean | 18:02 |
| feeshon | TJ-: wolfybox I think there is come confusion, if you are running python code you use python scriptname.py if you want to install the python packages use apt-get install python | 18:02 |
| wolfybox | feeshon: there is python 3 installed but i need python 2.7.5 | 18:02 |
| feeshon | so do ' apt-cache search python and you will see all the options to install python | 18:03 |
| Zal | wolfybox, surely you have both? At the very least, both are surely available | 18:03 |
| BluesKaj | asdasfsd. http://www.ubuntu-mini-remix.org/ | 18:03 |
| TJ- | wolfybox: "apt-cache search '^python2\.7' to see what is available | 18:03 |
| wolfybox | Zal: no, i only have python 3, i'm trying to install python 2.7.5 | 18:03 |
| Zal | "at the very least, both are surely available" | 18:04 |
| TJ- | Zal: Yes, I think 3 and 2.7 are installed alongside. ... wolfybox: check "ls /usr/bin/python*" | 18:04 |
| Zal | TJ-, yeah, I'd think so too (of course, we don't know how wolfybox installed) | 18:04 |
| TJ- | Zal: indeed ;) | 18:05 |
| hitsujiTMO | wolfybox: python2 and 3 are installed in ubuntu normally | 18:05 |
| wolfybox | ok well how do i disable python3 then | 18:05 |
| MangaKaDenza | u explod it | 18:06 |
| mudkip908 | but why? | 18:06 |
| MangaKaDenza | k? | 18:06 |
| neonlight | installed mod_musicindex in apache server, i see music files but when i download the playlist, its playlist.tar | 18:06 |
| wolfybox | i need python 2.7.5 to compile | 18:07 |
| Rory | neonlight: What were you hoping to get? | 18:07 |
| Zal | wolfybox, did you do "ls /usr/bin/python* " ? | 18:07 |
| feeshon | Any suggestions for DVD ripping software via command line? | 18:07 |
| feeshon | to run in ubuntu | 18:07 |
| Zal | feeshon, cdpranoia | 18:07 |
| mudkip908 | wolfybox: change the first line in your script to "#!/usr/bin/python2" | 18:07 |
| Zal | cdparanoia tha tis | 18:07 |
| neonlight | Rory, something like playlist.m3u as it did before. the playlist.tar doesnt play | 18:08 |
| wolfybox | ok python 2.7 is installed but i need to disable python 3 | 18:08 |
| ikonia | disable python3....I think not | 18:08 |
| Rory | neonlight: .tar is a tar archive, you need to extract it | 18:09 |
| TJ- | wolfybox: You do not need to disable it, you simply need to call python2.7 instead. "python" is linked to python3.3 which is why you get that. | 18:09 |
| hitsujiTMO | wolfybox: type: python --version | 18:09 |
| Rory | neonlight: it will have the mp3s or whatever in it, similar to Zip on Windows | 18:09 |
| TJ- | wolfybox: Try "python2.7 <your script name>" | 18:09 |
| Rory | neonlight: an m3u is useless on its own it contains no music, only lists of filenames | 18:09 |
| neonlight | Rory: using file on the playlist shows its data, even winrar won't open the file | 18:10 |
| feeshon | Zal: Looks like that is for audio only...I need to rip a DVD video | 18:10 |
| Rory | neonlight: have you considered using tar to extract the tar file? | 18:10 |
| Rory | neonlight: I think you should ask in #apache for help specific to an apache module, this channel is the Ubuntu support channel | 18:11 |
| Zal | feeshon, hm, not sure then, I assume mplayer and friends do it. I've always used k3b, which is awesome, but not CLI | 18:12 |
| mudkip908 | feeshon: maybe Handbrake? I think it has a CLI version | 18:12 |
| neonlight | Rory: .m3u used to work fine with vlc from a client machine..i think i broke or misconfigure something. let me check #apache | 18:12 |
| feeshon | Thanks guys I'll give those a try | 18:13 |
| TJ- | wolfybox: To ensure particular Python scripts always start using Python 2.7, edit the script's 'shebang' line (line 1) to be "#!/usr/bin/python2.7" | 18:13 |
| wolfybox | it's not a script | 18:13 |
| wolfybox | it's scons | 18:13 |
| bindi | I have my speakers connected with optical, how can I control the volume using alsamixer? | 18:14 |
| juniour | hi these days my cpu is always showing 90-100% , and my system got slow, plz help??? | 18:14 |
| TJ- | wolfybox: OK then you should be able to set the default version of Python using an environment variable | 18:14 |
| Zal | juniour, type "top" to see what process is using all that CPU | 18:14 |
| juniour | Zai its telling some .ruby.bin 70% | 18:15 |

| TJ- | wolfy[A]: I just installed scons (in Raring) with "sudo apt-get install scons" then checked its start-up file "head $(which scons)" that shows that /usr/bin/scons launches the default python. So that file needs changing: "sudo sed -i '1,1 s/python/python2.7/' /usr/bin/scons" | 18:25 |

| vimpulse | helpmehelpme: what happened to your Ubuntu installation? | 19:23 |
| vixxo | hi guys, is It true that starting from 13.10 Amazon search can't be removed ? | 19:23 |
| starhunter | well ur ans."can't q abt IRC"!!! | 19:23 |
| vimpulse | starhunter: you can. In #ubuntu-offtopic. | 19:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | vixxo i doubt it but #ubuntu+1 would know | 19:24 |
| helpmehelpme | vimpulse; i didnt delete ubuntu or anything. i don't even know how to mount ubuntu to lubuntu. just want to figure out how to run the partitions together i suppose ? | 19:24 |
| starhunter | so hw do i get into #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:24 |
| kostkon | starhunter, /j #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:24 |

| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, If you open your Lubuntu file manager you should see the Ubuntu file system listed. Tell me if that's right. | 19:25 |
| helpmehelpme | it don't see anything. | 19:26 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, What file manager? | 19:27 |
| vimpulse | Tex_Nick: I asked in ##linux if you can reformat and reuse your hard drive with "15 bad sectors" as your primary hard drive. Psi-Jack said no. You can ask him there why not, if you like. | 19:27 |
| vimpulse | compdoc: ^ | 19:27 |
| helpmehelpme | vimpulse; PCManFM | 19:27 |
| vimpulse | helpmehelpme: please direct everything to Tylertwo :) | 19:28 |
| AllanD | helpmehelpme: are you sure that you did not make the install OVER the old one and replace all that you had? | 19:28 |
| helpmehelpme | tylertwo * | 19:28 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, Can you pastebin the output of lsblk? | 19:28 |
| helpmehelpme | knowing my inferior self, I probably did that. | 19:28 |
| AllanD | helpmehelpme: if you did that then you will of course need to get your files from a backup | 19:29 |
| Tex_Nick | compdoc : http://www.imagebam.com/image/c08942281052076 | 19:29 |
| compdoc | Tex_Nick, smart records everything that happens to the drive, including all the bad things. If you have seen problems reading or writing to the drive, then it has been recorded in SMART. | 19:30 |
| vimpulse | helpmehelpme: if the data is gone, there may be ways to recover some or all of it. But, unfortunately, they may be expensive and/or time-consuming. | 19:30 |
| compdoc | Tex_Nick, it is completely safe, and also a very good idea to know how to read smart. And it is worth it to install smartctl. | 19:30 |
| helpmehelpme | time is not problem. | 19:30 |
| compdoc | Tex_Nick, it shows in your pic that the drive has bad sectors | 19:30 |
| AllanD | helpmehelpme: STOP using the system IMMEDIATELY - the longer you use it the less data will potentially be recoverable - assuming you have no backup | 19:30 |
| kieppie1 | howdy | 19:31 |
| kieppie1 | my new laptop is missing the context menu key | 19:31 |
| eer | I am using lang=en.us-utf8 but my keyboard is Logitech with a Swiss German layout. | 19:31 |
| kieppie1 | I believe the keycode for the key should be 117 | 19:31 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, Can you pastebin the output of lsblk? > this should make it clear if you've overwritten your Ubuntu filesystem. | 19:31 |
| pallav | hi there...does anyone know if it is normal to have a box with a red cross inside displaying in ubuntu 13.04 at the top right hand corner next to the clock? | 19:31 |
| compdoc | every time that number increases, it means the drive had a problem, and it has 'reallocated' the sector | 19:31 |
| kieppie1 | how can I execute a keycode event, so that I can remap it to a different key? | 19:31 |
| compdoc | so it looks ok now | 19:31 |
| delinquentme | https://gist.github.com/delinquentme/6940680 | 19:32 |
| helpmehelpme | tylertwo, i've no idea what that means. not a power user, nor am I ubuntu-smart lol. | 19:32 |

| kieppie1 | ?keybode | 19:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | pallav what does is say when you mouse over it? | 19:32 |
| AllanD | helpmehelpme: if you are going to do even that lsblk and pastebin - do it from a live cd/usb - DO NOT USE the system | 19:32 |
| kieppie1 | !keycode | 19:32 |
| kieppie1 | ?keycode | 19:32 |
| helpmehelpme | i've got lubuntu on a usb. | 19:32 |
| MonkeyDust | daninoz_ any reason you want a lower version? maybe there's a different solution for what you want | 19:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | pallav: if it's what i think it is then that only means the system was unable to check the repo for updates | 19:33 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, Open a terminal, type "lsblk". | 19:33 |
| phy1729 | How often do the IPs for us.archive.ubuntu.com security.ubuntu.com extras.ubuntu.com change? | 19:33 |
| AllanD | helpmehelpme: boot of that usb stick and look around that way - that way if you have overwritten the old file system there is some chance of recovery | 19:33 |
| pallav | hitsuji it doesn't say anything but it is the button that can be used to view about this computer and system settings etc. | 19:33 |
| dragonfly | pallav: can you post a screenshot of the "box with a red x" | 19:33 |
| daninoz_ | MonkeyDust: The production server I'm working is on php 5.4. I want to have the same version on my local server. | 19:33 |
| pallav | do you know how to fix that hitsujitmo | 19:34 |
| helpmehelpme | typed in 'lsblk' | 19:34 |
| AllanD | phy1729: I have never noticed them change - have you? | 19:34 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, copy the output and paste it on paste.ubuntu.com | 19:34 |
| helpmehelpme | output .-. ? | 19:34 |
| helpmehelpme | not great with the terminology either, guys. | 19:34 |
| hitsujiTMO | pallav can you screenshot it? | 19:34 |
| helpmehelpme | you're dealing with a moron. | 19:34 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, type lsblk then press enter | 19:35 |
| Tex_Nick | compdoc : thanks for the input there ... i will monitor SMART from time to time ... was really wanting to find location of bad sectors ... create 2 or more partitions, excluding bad sectors ? | 19:35 |
| helpmehelpme | pressed enter. | 19:35 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, there should be writing on the terminal that comes below it - that's the output | 19:35 |
| AllanD | helpmehelpme: are you running from that stick or ignoring my advice and running from the new install - if the latter you are probably reducing your chances of recover and increasing the cosyt too | 19:35 |
| helpmehelpme | i think from the stick. | 19:35 |
| jhutchins | delinquentme: Did you log out an d lot back in to source .bashrc? | 19:35 |
| phy1729 | AllanD: just asking | 19:35 |
| helpmehelpme | i have no idea how to do either, lol. | 19:35 |
| compdoc | Tex_Nick, your data is at risk if you continue. the drive is dying. | 19:36 |
| AllanD | phy1729: a strange question then - any reason for the question then? | 19:36 |
| lolu | phy1729: http://www.domaintools.com/research/whois-history/?q=us.archive.ubuntu.com | 19:36 |
| jhutchins | Tex_Nick: That might make sense on an old drive, but modern drives the sectors you see are virtual, modeled by the controller. If you're actually seeing bad blocks then the drive is failing. | 19:36 |
| delinquentme | jhutchins, I did still non functional $which rvm | 19:37 |
| eer | Why is there no ~/-bash_profile in Ubuntu? | 19:37 |
| jhutchins | Tex_Nick: If they're increasing or you're seeing repeated entries from smart in the logs, the drive is failing NOW. | 19:37 |
| phy1729 | AllanD: setting up a default deny iptable outbound | 19:37 |
| Tex_Nick | i understand ... i bought it used ... only want to use it for non-critical data storage | 19:37 |

| llutz | eer: there is ~/.profile, works with bash too | 19:38 |
| Pici | Ari-Yang: What do you mean by 'not log in the terminal'? | 19:38 |
| AllanD | lolu: that is a commercial/pay site - I believe that it is inappropriate to promote it here | 19:38 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, good, what's the resulting URL? | 19:38 |
| Ari-Yang | Pici: as in it won't log in bash_history | 19:38 |
| helpmehelpme | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6223901/ | 19:38 |
| jhutchins | delAre you using bash as your shell? | 19:38 |
| Ari-Yang | Pici: I know typing a space before a command in terminal isn't logged in bash_history, but I want to make the command not log at all so that I don't have to type a space before it all the time | 19:38 |
| lolu | Ari-Yang: unset HISTFILE | 19:39 |
| Tex_Nick | ok ... hey compdoc, vimpulse & jhutchins ... thanks for the input guys ... understand i can't cure a dying patient ;-) | 19:39 |

| helpmehelpme | Tylertwo, what should i do from here ? | 19:40 |
| === bageera is now known as bageera566 | ||

| Ari-Yang | lolu: ah | 19:40 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, And I'm not 100% on whether you deleted your Ubuntu partition yet. If you open your file manager are you able to access the files you had saved on your Lubuntu partition? | 19:41 |
| pallav | how do i send a screenshot here? | 19:41 |
| Tylertwo | pallav, you can upload it on imgur.com | 19:41 |

| hitsujiTMO | pallav ... use imgur or some similar service | 19:42 |

| ubottu | The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 19:45 |
| eer | Anybody knows? | 19:45 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, Heh, in the future you may want to keep a log or something of major computer ventures you undertake, such as installing an OS. | 19:45 |

| helpmehelpme | what should i do now ? | 19:46 |
| nullkuhl | joar: yeah read that, but i was trying to create the live cd from an already existing installation | 19:46 |

| nullkuhl | joar: "You might also want to create a LiveCD from an existing installation; in this case, Remastersys is for you." .. unfortunately remastersys seems to be halted | 19:47 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, in your file manager under "Places" do you see something along the lines of "367 Gb Filesystem" and "97Gb Filesystem"? | 19:47 |
| helpmehelpme | 103 gb and 394 gb | 19:47 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, Check both of those and see if you can find your movies/music/whatever that you wanted. | 19:48 |
| joar | nullkuhl: I see, that's what I can find for now, is it an option to do it the way described in the article? | 19:48 |
| joar | do you have any time constraints? | 19:48 |
| nullkuhl | joar: kinda yeah, i was hoping for a more on the fly thing. | 19:48 |

| joar | nullkuhl: I see, it would be nice if it was just magic, but it seems you have to do some work. | 19:49 |
| nullkuhl | joar: if i have a live cd on a flash usb already, is there a way to make an iso image of that flash usb including the boot loader , mbr if any and so on ? | 19:49 |
| joar | in my opinion: you would get a cleaner install if you make it from scratch. | 19:49 |
| helpmehelpme | i couldn't find anything. i checked under media .-. | 19:50 |

| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, How did you locate them in the past, when you watched the movies and whatnot? | 19:51 |
| joar | I had plymouth:debug in my boot command, that was the issue. | 19:51 |
| wilee-nilee | nullkuhl, It is a copy of the iso why not download it again. | 19:51 |
| helpmehelpme | they were all in a file. 'moviessss' | 19:51 |
| Svetlana | kieppie1, :) | 19:51 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, Where was that file located? | 19:51 |
| helpmehelpme | but since nothing on this is like ubuntu 12.04 , i'm clueless. | 19:51 |
| nullkuhl | wilee-nilee: because the flash usb will be modified , more apps installed , own files included etc.. | 19:51 |
| helpmehelpme | desktop | 19:51 |
| snickerdoodles | Who has managed to make air play video stream from ubuntu to an apple tv? | 19:52 |
| nullkuhl | wilee-nilee: there was thise tool that makes the live cd when written on the flash drive to have read/write access, so that it doesnt reset if machine is restarted. | 19:52 |

| rostov | he's not going ot be happy with the command line | 20:12 |
| wilee-nilee | rostov, the mini is a net install, it has more options, however not a beginners method in general. | 20:12 |
| ABX5B | There were a lot, haven't write they down, maybe, I will raise the issue, when I have em. | 20:12 |
| wilee-nilee | rostov, use a usb | 20:13 |
| bekks | ABX5B: Without the actual error message, no one can help you. | 20:13 |
| ABX5B | I guess | 20:13 |
| rostov | wilee-nilee: It has t be a CD, not a DVD or USB. The laptop is old and cannot boot from USB | 20:13 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: know what i can do? :S | 20:13 |
| rostov | 12.04 will fit on a CD? | 20:14 |
| ABX5B | There is some other Qs regarding Continious Integration... | 20:14 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, Is this a recent problem? Ie did it work in the past? | 20:14 |
| bekks | ABX5B: CI of what? | 20:14 |
| wilee-nilee | rostov, I believe lubuntu will fit, maybe xubuntu, this is easily found on the web, which is where you should be looking, limiting this to a cd is a bad start to be honest for full use and understanding the OS. | 20:14 |
| OerHeks | rostov, the mini iso gives you a gui to install unity/gnome3 > http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BnPUzUPJ6us/UeGmG2gh5sI/AAAAAAAAAwk/lJ2fDSmhxNM/s1600/Step22.png | 20:14 |
| codekK | idk because is first time i install ubuntu on this laptop | 20:14 |
| ABX5B | Software developement | 20:14 |
| bekks | ABX5B: be more precise please. | 20:15 |
| ABX5B | I am using Ubuntu as host platform for CI | 20:15 |
| OerHeks | rostov, taken from http://amjjawad.blogspot.nl/2013/07/ubuntu-mini-iso-installation-process.html | 20:15 |
| bekks | ABX5B: So whats the actual ubuntu related question? | 20:15 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, So if you wanted to go back to Gnome3 you would have to restart the computer (or restart gnome)? | 20:15 |
| lolu | olabaz: i got nothing, in that case sorry | 20:15 |
| olabaz | ok thx anyway | 20:15 |
| codekK | i dont try restarting gnome just restarting computer | 20:16 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: i will go to try restarting gdm | 20:16 |
| oplex | hello, can anyone help me what to do when mp3 files are not supported by the player device (which it used to support until now) ? | 20:16 |
| wilee-nilee | rostov, They will probably be best with lubuntu, it does not have a the pae kernel, and is light enough maybe for a computer to old to boot a usb, maybe | 20:16 |
| codekK | second | 20:16 |
| ABX5B | ok, installed Jenkins, Ant, Java, etc.. but I need to link with SVN repository on Windows. Is it possible? | 20:16 |
| jetro | Hey guys noob here, I am trying to install Ubuntu, I currently have windows 7 and created a partition to install ubuntu on. Now I am asked if I want use a partition for swap space. I only have one free partition though (the one I intended to install ubuntu on). How can I reduce the size of this partition and create another partition for swap space? | 20:16 |
| rostov | OerHeks: Again thanks for the info. However this isn't going to work for the guy. He really needs the standard one click installer. I'm looking on the web to find the newest one that will fit on a 74 minute (the laptop cannot read 80m CD) CD | 20:17 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, How many partitions are there now and are they all primaries? | 20:17 |
| rostov | wilee-nilee: Oh ubuntu uses a pAE kernel now? | 20:17 |
| bekks | ABX5B: man svn | 20:17 |
| ABX5B | Yea | 20:17 |
| ABX5B | :D | 20:17 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, Also be sure that you know a unallocated space is not called a partition here. | 20:17 |
| ABX5B | Ubuntu is emulated alias guest OS | 20:18 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee I have 1 partition for windows 7, and one blank partition that I wanted to use for ubuntu | 20:18 |
| wilee-nilee | rostov, The main ubuntu does, I believe xubuntu and lubuntu do not | 20:18 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: i do restart lightdm and it dont start.. :( | 20:18 |
| jetro | so no way to add swap space? | 20:18 |
| llutz | jetro: you always can add a swapfile later | 20:18 |
| bekks | ABX5B: So how is the usage of svn directly related to Ubuntu? | 20:18 |
| olabaz | lolu: do you think I should try anything from booting into recovery? | 20:18 |
| ABX5B | Don't know :) | 20:19 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, No boot partition for Windows, can you run sudo fdsik -l and pastebin the info. | 20:19 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, Before suspending the computer were many processes running? Or not much activity? | 20:19 |
| ABX5B | Some way I guess | 20:19 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: noting running | 20:19 |
| codekK | just gdm with default utilities from laptop | 20:19 |
| bekks | ABX5B: No way I know :) The usage of svn isnt related to ubuntu. | 20:19 |
| codekK | is a new installation of ubuntu 13.04 | 20:19 |
| ABX5B | Still, my CI runs on it | 20:19 |
| ABX5B | :) | 20:19 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, sorry sudo fdisk -l | 20:19 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, I am in the process of installing, should I quit, run ubuntu from the cd, and run that command? | 20:20 |
| codekK | and i boot computer whe is up i close the screen of laptop... when i open the screen again and push some key it return to Windows in same state when i close but it get freeze | 20:20 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, This a wubi install? | 20:20 |
| codekK | only can move mouse and swap with other tty (alt+ctrl+fx) | 20:20 |
| bekks | ABX5B: Still, using svn is not related to ubuntu. | 20:21 |
| bekks | ABX5B: you may ask #svn too | 20:21 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, I burned ubuntu on to a cd, and am trying to install from the cd | 20:21 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, you may find this interesting: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2143906 | 20:21 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, My concern is have you maxed out the amount of partitions possible, so n o swap is possible for one. | 20:21 |
| ABX5B | Checking channels already... #Discovery Science should be as well | 20:21 |
| lolu | ABX5B: you just need the jenkins subversion plugin right? | 20:22 |
| ABX5B | Plugin? Nop | 20:22 |
| ABX5B | Make shared folder as repo | 20:22 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, I think so, I just have two partitions. So I guess I should just cancel the installation, logon to my windows 7 os, and then create another partition from there? | 20:22 |
| ABX5B | From both OS - Ubuntu and Win | 20:22 |
| bekks | ABX5B: You want to check out a repo, not making a shared folder. | 20:22 |
| ABX5B | I don't know really | 20:23 |
| bekks | ABX5B: I do :) | 20:23 |
| ABX5B | Shared is shared, security concerns.. | 20:23 |
| bekks | checkout the repo. | 20:23 |
| bekks | No need to use shared folders at all. | 20:23 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: i saw it but isnt the same problem he get freeze 50% and get freeze all (mouse include). I get 100% of times freeze and can reboot computer from other tty no needed hard reset | 20:23 |
| ABX5B | Right :) | 20:24 |
| lolu | ABX5B: let the repo be on guest machine, then set up port forwarding from vbox | 20:24 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, You can't create a partition for ubuntu from windows, making a unallocated is not making a partition. You can do all of this from ubuntu, we just need to see what is there now with a screenshot of the gparted partitioner on the live cd or the fdisk command. | 20:24 |
| bekks | lolu: Why not just checking out the repo? | 20:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | jetro are you sure you just have 2 partitions ... windows uses at least 2 | 20:24 |
| bekks | lolu: Thats what it is for, | 20:24 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: and i dont have password on my ubutun then i can wait some mins before enter the password | 20:25 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, If you want definitive answers we have to know what is there now. | 20:25 |
| lolu | lolu: oh, you need the same checkout available between guest and host? | 20:25 |
| lolu | ABX5B: oh, you need the same checkout available between guest and host? | 20:26 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, after the error occurs you could go to tty1 and enter "top" to see if some applications are using a lot of CPU. | 20:27 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, I used EaseUS partition master to create a partition | 20:27 |
| ABX5B | That would be weird.. I am programming on both OS, but I need to link or make a single repo to use from both sides | 20:27 |
| bekks | ABX5B: Why not using svn? | 20:27 |
| bekks | ABX5B: One repo, two clients, checkin, checkout, commit, update... | 20:27 |
| lolu | ABX5B: mount as network volume | 20:28 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: only init and top is using cpu (0,3%) | 20:28 |
| rostov | wilee-nilee: OerHeks thank you both | 20:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | jetro, delete that partition and leave it as free space, leave the ubuntu installer make the partitions for you | 20:28 |
| helpmehelpme | what should i do about clearing storage space so i can transfer all +13,000 songs over to lubuntu ? | 20:28 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: and sometimes kworker | 20:28 |
| OerHeks | rostov, have fun | 20:28 |
| jetro | hitsujiTMO, I have two partitions for windows it seems, 1 that is very small (104 mb), and one that 200GB. Then I have the partition I created recently (20GB) for ubuntu | 20:28 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, you don't need to and should not, use the ubuntu tools for linux. This can be taken care of easily from the ubuntu live cd if you just follow the help. | 20:28 |
| ABX5B | Network volume sounds intriguing | 20:29 |
| lolu | ABX5B: sshfs | 20:29 |
| ABX5B | Gotta try | 20:29 |
| ABX5B | Thnx | 20:29 |
| hitsujiTMO | jetro, delete that 20gb one, and run the ubuntu installer again, just tell it to leave windows alone and it will create a root partion and swap partition for you | 20:29 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, It may be if you have actually hit the install button that you are okay, however if we do not get a clear description of where you are at and what is there this is a waste of time. | 20:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | you'll end up then with 4 primary partitions | 20:30 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, Have you looked into syslog to see if it recorded any errors? | 20:31 |
| wilee-nilee | hitsujiTMO, Not waiting for actual proof of what is on that HD is a foolish help. | 20:31 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, there were three options: Install ubuntu inside windows 7, replace windows 7 with ubuntu, and "something else" (you can create or resize partitions yourself, or choose multiple partitions for ubuntu) | 20:31 |
| jetro | I chose "something else" | 20:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilee-nilee you're right | 20:32 |
| helpmehelpme | tylertwo: could you assist me once more? | 20:32 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, I give up, you do not seem to understand that actually seeing what is there is important, best of luck. | 20:32 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: nah, at syslog i dont see error :( | 20:33 |
| codekK | maybe the better way is trying with 12.04... what u think? | 20:33 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, sorry, I am on the computer that I am trying to install ubuntu on (on the windows partition), so I would have to shutdown the computer and then take screenshots and come back | 20:33 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, are you installing from windows? | 20:34 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, I mean, I like 12.04 a lot.. Why did you decide to get 13.04? Switching versions is kinda a lot of effort to solve a issue like this.. | 20:34 |
| Tylertwo | helpmehelpme, not now | 20:35 |
| qazwert | http://pastebin.com/ZhACJ2uY can someone tell me whats wrong with this code, gives error: field ‘k’ has incomplete type | 20:35 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, no, I burned ubuntu ISO onto a cd, and to install I shutdown my computer and boot from the CD | 20:35 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: I chose 13.04 just because is newest... no other reason | 20:35 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, You can come to #ubuntu from the live cd. | 20:35 |
| MonkeyDust | qazwert sure you're in the right channel? | 20:36 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, You mentioned Gnome3 DE. Did you download that? I thought the default is Unity. | 20:36 |
| jetro | wilee-nilee, ok, I will try that now | 20:36 |
| lolu | qazwert: in line 9 when you wrote b k, the class b was not defined. Hence the error | 20:37 |
| wilee-nilee | jetro, Cool, it will be easiest to help you from there. | 20:37 |
| codekK | Tylertwo: no sry when i said gnome3 i refer to unity. I have unity installed ofc sry | 20:38 |
| === trevor is now known as Guest80457 | ||
| wilee-nilee | codekK, Unity actually is a plugin in compiz running on gnome 3 to just be clear, the gnome-shell is the gnome 3 desktop. | 20:39 |

| Ari-Yang | codekK: what problem? | 20:42 |
| codekK | Ari-Yang: After suspend laptop with 13.04 i get freeze the DE only can move mouse and swap with tty's | 20:43 |
| Ari-Yang | codekK: oh.... what DE are you using? | 20:43 |
| codekK | unity | 20:44 |
| codekK | or gnome3 + compiz + unity | 20:44 |
| codekK | just is a new installation from official img from ubuntu | 20:44 |
| Tylertwo | codekK, Ok. Your problem is probably solveable but I'm not sure how. 12.04 should be a bit more stable in general though. | 20:45 |
| Ari-Yang | codekK: what's the specs of your computer? | 20:45 |
| codekK | i5, 4gb ram, hd 640gb | 20:45 |
| codekK | laptop toshiba l750 | 20:45 |
| Ari-Yang | codekK: j/w and it could be a gnome3 or unity bug.... | 20:45 |
| Ari-Yang | codekK: tbh I'd try re-installing unity if I can before installing a whole new ubuntu version | 20:46 |
| Ari-Yang | but that's me | 20:46 |
| Ari-Yang | good luck | 20:46 |
| codekK | Ari-Yang: ok i will try reinstallinmg unity | 20:47 |
| lolu | codeKK do you have an nvidia card with optimus chipset | 20:47 |
| codekK | just apt-get install --reinstall unity, no? | 20:47 |
| codekK | lolu: dont know isa GeForce GT 520M cuda | 20:48 |
| lolu | codekK: pretty sure its an nvidia issue, have come across this earlier | 20:49 |
| codekK | lolu: yes i see on nvidia webpage and its a optimus chipset | 20:49 |
| thnee | I have a poiting device with special Copy and Paste buttons. Somehow they are mapped correctly automatically, but when I run xinput test it doesnt pick up any button code. Where might this be configured? | 20:49 |
| codekK | lolu: cant solve it? if i install 12.04 continue the issue? | 20:50 |
| Ari-Yang | codekK: you checked logs right? | 20:50 |
| codekK | Ari-Yang: syslog | 20:50 |
| codekK | yes | 20:50 |
| lolu | codekK: browse a little on askubuntu, its a known issue | 20:50 |

| wilee-nilee | raevol, YOU save the original image of 12.04? | 20:54 |
| codekK | Ari-Yang: syslog and Xorg.0.log ? | 20:54 |
| daftykins | raevol: well, i'd be more concerned with you upgrading away from an LTS release. why do you want to do that? | 20:54 |
| Ari-Yang | codekK: yes | 20:54 |
| hitsujiTMO | pc-world i'm in the same boat tbh, bzr confuses me | 20:55 |
| raevol | wilee-nilee: i do have a saved image of the VM, yea, but it's from yesterday, and i'd like to recover the upgraded one if i can | 20:55 |
| trism | pc-world: I think you want https://code.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity/7.0 | 20:55 |
| raevol | daftykins: i need packages that aren't available in 12.04 | 20:55 |
| daftykins | raevol: wouldn't a clean install make more sense? | 20:56 |
| raevol | daftykins: for a server? | 20:56 |
| daftykins | yep | 20:56 |
| daftykins | well, a fresh VM | 20:56 |
| wilee-nilee | raevol, I would boot a live cd and use the bootrepair app to get a bootinfo script, we could then see what is there. The 12.04 has 5 years support 12.10 is 9 months and not long from ending I believe. | 20:57 |
| nishanth | i have a wireless USB adapter which is not detected on ubuntu.....could someone help me with this issue? | 20:57 |
| tgm4883 | wilee-nilee, 12.10 is supported for 18 months | 20:57 |
| wilee-nilee | ah still much shorter then 12.04 | 20:57 |
| lolu | pc-world: if you just need the source you can do an apt-get source unity | 20:57 |
| nishanth | wilee-nilee : thanks a lot yesterday i was able to fix my grub | 20:57 |
| tgm4883 | wilee-nilee, yes, still much shorter and I'm not sure why anyone would want to put a non-LTS version on a server | 20:58 |
| pc-world | lolu: that's what I've been doing in the meantime | 20:58 |
| wilee-nilee | nishanth, cool, no problem. | 20:58 |
| lolu | nishanth: lsusb | 20:58 |
| tgm4883 | wilee-nilee, FWIW, I believe 13.04 is the first release that support is only 9 months | 20:58 |
| wilee-nilee | tgm4883, Heh, my thoughts exactly. ;) | 20:58 |
| pc-world | will probably stick with that, though wanted to try the bzr way as well. trism's way seems to work, at least it appears to be downloading something | 20:58 |

| seeds | what generates that message with login greeting? when we perform a console login the message of memory usage etc and apt package status is shown | 21:22 |
| tgm4883 | seeds, you mean MOTD? | 21:22 |
| someking | lolu: but what if I want to install all the packages from a ppa and in the official repositories I have a newest version. | 21:22 |
| seeds | tgm not only a banner | 21:23 |
| seeds | it must be a script | 21:23 |
| tgm4883 | someking, you probably want to set the priority of the repo higher and/or pin the package http://askubuntu.com/questions/135339/assign-highest-priority-to-my-local-repository | 21:23 |
| lolu | someking: ya so specify the older version you want to install | 21:23 |
| someking | lolu: I think i will try tgm4883 solution | 21:23 |
| tgm4883 | seeds, I'm not completely sure what you are talking about | 21:24 |
| seeds | tgm4883 yes the motd, however it shows system load, swap/memory/disk usage, processes etc | 21:24 |
| lolu | someking: that i think is to resolve when two packages are available on same version. try that out any ways. | 21:25 |
| lnxslck | everytime i boot ubuntu tell's me there's a severe problem and if i want to report it | 21:26 |
| lnxslck | how can i disable this? | 21:26 |
| tgm4883 | lnxslck, have you tried reporting it? | 21:26 |
| raevol | tgm4883: i need a package not available in 12.04, and it's a non-critical server | 21:26 |
| lolu | seeds: i think you are talking about landscape-sysinfo | 21:26 |
| seeds | tgm4883 ah found it by locate motd - its was specifically that, which lolu said | 21:27 |
| seeds | thanks to you both | 21:28 |

| lnxslck | tgm4883, it happens every time i log in | 21:29 |
| tgm4883 | lnxslck, did you bother looking at the report and seeing what was actually failing? | 21:31 |
| lnxslck | tgm4883, yes | 21:31 |
| lnxslck | tgm4883, nothing i could fix by myself though | 21:32 |
| tgm4883 | lnxslck, so what is actually causing it? | 21:32 |
| lnxslck | ubuntu system itself | 21:32 |
| lnxslck | let me get the error again | 21:32 |
| tgm4883 | yea, get the error again | 21:32 |
| someking | can i add a specific series of a ppa using add-apt-repository? | 21:34 |
| bekks | someking: sure. | 21:34 |
| tgm4883 | bekks, how, I don't see a way | 21:35 |
| bekks | for i in ppa1 ppa2 ppa3; do sudo add-apt-repository "${i}"; done | 21:35 |
| tgm4883 | bekks, maybe I misread what he wanted, but how does that allow him to add say the lucid version of a PPA on his precise box? | 21:36 |
| bekks | tgm4883: I dont think that that would be supported, since it might entirely break his box. | 21:37 |
| someking | tgm4883: that's what i want. I tried "ppa:xxx/xxx raring main" but didn't work | 21:37 |
| tgm4883 | bekks, completely true, but I'm just trying to figure out what he asked | 21:37 |
| tgm4883 | someking, yea, that won't work | 21:37 |
| tgm4883 | someking, you'd have to add it manually, and hope it doesn't break anything | 21:38 |
| bekks | someking: so what does "didnt work" mean - whats the error message? And you you realize that doing so might break your box? | 21:38 |

| kaddi | reisio, one of the reasons I decided not to install straight away is that ubuntu seems unhappy with my screen resolution and given that this is a haswell processor I have hopes that 13.10 is better suited than 13.04 | 22:41 |
| daftykins | yeah you're going to want a 3.10+ kernel with haswell | 22:42 |
| kaddi | this being said by the time I've found the time to read up on these issues and the difference between 13.04 and 13.10 for them, 13.10 will have been released anyways :p | 22:42 |

| Dr_Willis | I think you basically have to download a few packages from another machine, then transfer them over via a usb flash drive. | 23:06 |
| samholmes | what's the dif between apt-get and aptitude? | 23:06 |
| nishanth | Dr_Willis i have that link but i dont know where to go from there....it looks highly technical | 23:07 |
| reisio | aptitude has more automagic | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | i bought a cheap $10 edimax wifi dongle the other month that works out of the box. makes installing needed drivers for problem wifi dongles much easier | 23:07 |
| reisio | good sometimes, awful others | 23:07 |
| SteveH0 | Aptitude is a fancier GUI. | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: i never need to follow the guide. so no idea on what parts may cause issues. easiest way is to run a wire for a few min, or use a dongle that works out of the box | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | ive learned to avoide aptitude.. :) or at least pay VERY close attention to what its doing | 23:08 |
| Aeros | daftykins, any ideas? | 23:08 |
| Dr_Willis | aptitude decided to remove 300+ packages, then reinstalled them.. for me once. ;) | 23:08 |
| nishanth | Dr_Willis basically i want to know how i can install brcmfmac open source driver | 23:08 |
| daftykins | Aeros: nah, i don't even think what you want to do is going to be a good idea | 23:08 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: open sourced should be included by default as far as i know | 23:08 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: unless its some new driver not in the default kernel | 23:09 |
| Dr_Willis | or it may still need the firmware packages | 23:09 |

| nishanth | Dr_Willis a lot of these terms like firmware are kind of new to me | 23:10 |
| daftykins | Aeros: sorry GTA V calls | 23:10 |
| Aeros | xD okay | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: well i guess you can ask a lot of questions here. but id suggest doing some reading of the guides first so you sort of get the basics of whats going on first | 23:11 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: the drivers load the firmware that the code the card uses internally basically. thats the part that often cant be included by default for legal reasons | 23:12 |
| zombietoad | Can i ask a quick question before i install fedora ? :) | 23:13 |
| reisio | ? | 23:13 |
| reisio | I think you just did | 23:13 |
| Dr_Willis | zombietoad: we dont really care what you install. ;) or ask as long as its somehow ubuntu support related | 23:13 |
| Dr_Willis | zombietoad: and there is a fedora channel | 23:14 |
| Dr_Willis | nishanth: http://askubuntu.com/search?q=Broadcom+BCM43235 seems to have some good info | 23:14 |
| zombietoad | i have installed 3 different versions of linux now, and none of them support my amd mobility HD 4250, i red somewhere that fedore support it. true or false ? :) | 23:14 |
| bekks | zombietoad: ask the fedora support | 23:15 |
| zombietoad | a shit... i pressed the wrong tab ... sorry | 23:15 |

| ubottu | ammini: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | 23:22 |
| bekks | hmm | 23:23 |

| Marlenee | in screen tool can i set scroll back more that 30 lines and if possible how can i set it ? | 23:34 |
| Ben64 | pikoups: you should see if there is a help forum for the irc server you're running, this isn't really an ubuntu issue | 23:35 |
| pikoups | ah ok | 23:35 |
| pikoups | his is a ircu version 2004, forum is probably off right now | 23:35 |
| reisio | Marlenee: you can set it on demand by hitting CTRL+a, : (shift+;) | 23:35 |
| Ben64 | Marlenee: you can usually see further back using CTRL+A [ | 23:35 |
| reisio | Marlenee: then typing 'scrollback 7777', then enter | 23:35 |
| reisio | or you can start screen with -h # | 23:36 |
| reisio | or you can put defscrollback # into ~/.screenrc | 23:36 |
| pikoups | bye and ty a lot | 23:40 |
| pikoups | :) | 23:40 |
| reisio | AND YOU! | 23:41 |
| Marlenee | reisio : there's no ~/.screenrc in my server | 23:41 |
| reisio | Marlenee: feel free to add one | 23:42 |
| reisio | if you have root and want to change it for everyone, modify /etc/screenrc | 23:42 |
| nishanth_ | can anyone help me guide through downloading and installing brcfmac driver? | 23:42 |
| Marlenee | reisio : it work fine what about screen work befor i change defscrollback | 23:46 |

| Marlenee | this screen still have the defscrollback 1024 | 23:46 |
| Marlenee | and i set fro all new screen 20000 | 23:46 |
| reisio | Marlenee: yes, well I wouldn't expect it to reread a config after it's already started | 23:48 |
| reisio | Marlenee: use the CTRL+a thing I said earlier for already running ones | 23:48 |
