[00:00] Tylertwo: Thanks === BlackoutIsHere is now known as BlackoutIsHere|O [00:00] So when I just boot normally, and press "ESC" to switch to text boot, it hangs up at a stage relating to "System V" [00:00] reisio: thanks, gimme one sec to check it all [00:00] so if i wanna copy the disk, it's /dev/sda, right? [00:00] Schalla: dd is usually not the best way to copy data [00:00] Dysfunccction, Did this ever boot, if so what led to this no boot, if you can. [00:01] It used to boot. [00:01] reisio: Any other way to make a complete mirror of the hdd? [00:01] I also need the MBR and such, since it's pgp encrypted. [00:01] The problem occured after I installed Wine. [00:01] Schalla: since? [00:01] *because [00:01] no, not because :) [00:02] It asked to remove incompatable packages, so I did so. [00:02] I'd back up the data, and not the device [00:02] subtly but importantly different [00:02] reisio: That might be easier, but can't be done that easily. [00:02] Dysfunccction, what leads to this remove a update or a install...etc? [00:02] One more question, installation of geany 1.24 tells me that I'm missing depends "glib2, gtk2 and pango", before install I verified that I have them, although theyre under different file names, glib2 is libglib2 and so on, could this be the potential cause for install failure, and what other things could cause this? so I can look up the solution, thanks! [00:03] reisio: Why you wouldn't use dd? [00:03] reisio: Everything is unmuted, namely the S/PDIF and S/PDIF Default. No other toggles that I can find [00:03] Both S/PDIF and S/PDIF Default have no volume controls, just settings to show they're unmuted [00:04] I just wanted to install Wine. I had also been installing a bunch of other packages in Software Center at the same time too if that matters. [00:04] TheMadDrizzle: hit TAB, use left/right arrow keys, use up/down arrow keys [00:04] hey guys, anybody have any idea why using Plex media server, it can't see my files? Not my Home directory, not my Portable drive, nothing, I tried adding the user plex to the plugdev group then added it to my user's group, still, not able to see the files [00:04] Dysfunccction, Gonna be hard to find any answers without any specifics. [00:04] Is there a linux mint channel? [00:05] gulag2013: /msg alis list *linux*mint* [00:05] gulag2013, Not on freenode [00:05] wilee-nilee: sure there is [00:05] different server gulag ! :D [00:05] reisio, used to be I think it's gone [00:05] nah [00:05] nothing's gone from this world, 'cept sense [00:05] I rebooted, but it was going slow so I just hard shutdown. It never booted since. [00:05] gulag I think it's irc.debian.org [00:06] !mintsupport | gulag2013 [00:06] gulag2013: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [00:06] reisio: Everything now unmuted and at full volume. Still no sound or even sound signal shown in PulseAudio [00:06] njsg good news. Still have windows. [00:06] Also have ubuntu [00:06] ##linuxmint 64 users is all I see [00:06] also have a failed install of ubuntu [00:07] Oh, okay tried a few * Thanks for clearing that up. Would anyone here be able t completely remove Cinnamon. I have no idea how it got installed on my Ubuntu 12.04. Thanks for the channel infor [00:07] So now I'm trying to see if I can get the windows boot manager to work [00:07] TheMadDrizzle: really not talking about muting... [00:08] nick1, This W8 or uefi? [00:09] wilee-nilee so I have three partitions: Windows 8, ubuntu, and Ubuntu. My computer is booting using UEFI mode. The Ubuntu (capitalized) does not work. [00:09] Hi Guys I want record what are command executed in my remote server [00:09] The boot manager allows me to boot to Windows 8 and Ubuntu. [00:09] I would like to delete Ubuntu and have the option to boot to Windows 8 and ubuntu (non capitalized). [00:09] please guide me. History command not gives proper output [00:09] nick1, You tried the bootrepair app to fix ubuntu to boot? [00:09] One more question, installation of geany 1.24 tells me that I'm missing depends "glib2, gtk2 and pango", before install I verified that I have them, although theyre under different file names, glib2 is libglib2 and so on, could this be the potential cause for install failure, and what other things could cause this? so I can look up the solution, thanks! [00:10] nick1, ##windows would be the W8 fix channel deleteing ubuntu can be done from windows. [00:10] wilee-nilee, no do you think that would fix it? [00:10] nick1, fix what exactly? [00:10] uhm any reason why: sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=smb://nas/public/BackUp/win7.img doesn't work? [00:11] I forget anything special? [00:11] To delete Ubuntu (capitalized) and add ubuntu (non capitalized) to boot manager [00:11] Schalla: does dd grok smb:// ? [00:11] what you mean with grok reisio? [00:11] understand [00:11] I think not [00:12] smb:// is more of a nautilus thing [00:12] nick1, "The boot manager allows me to boot to Windows 8 and Ubuntu." this suggests you can boot it now, can you be more concise? [00:12] you need to mount the share [00:12] Schalla: what're you going to do with a dd of Windows? [00:13] wilee-nilee: What info were you looking for exactly? [00:13] reisio: I sometimes need to work probaly again on a windows 7 image, and don't wanna reinstall the whole thing everytime. [00:13] VPN,Notes, PGP... === jared_ is now known as Guest74544 [00:13] That's why [00:13] Ben64: Alright [00:13] Hey guys, I have a question about installing Ubuntu 13.04 on my windows * pc [00:13] * windows 8 pc [00:14] sure wilee-nilee. Sorry, about that and thanks for your help. [00:14] So currently when I start my computer I am presented with the metro boot manager that gives me two options: Windows 8 and Ubuntu. Windows 8 works fine, but Ubuntu gives an error because I incorrectly installed it. [00:14] However, I have another copy of Ubuntu that does work, but is not given as an option in the boot manager. Does this make sense? [00:15] Dysfunccction, The channel would want to know exactly what you were installing and what was removed that caused this predicament, a hard shutdown has its own set of problems. To be honest since to are a beginner you might consider a new install, and making a image of that so if you break it again you can just reload it, just a suggestion is all since you have no real details. [00:15] Schalla: go with dd, but maybe it's also useful to copy your windows user profile separately for future use, as some of these files can be just copied to their linux counterparts [00:15] I want to split my hdd 50/50 put I get this screen during install http://imgbin.org/images/15357.png, what do I do? [00:16] Guest74544: advanced? [00:16] I guess I'll just back-up. [00:17] Guest74544: drag the divider so that it gets nearly 50/50? [00:17] njsg: Ay, it's a fresh install. I just joined a new company, where the default is windows and the system introduction goes 2 days (Lotus Notes is horrible to set up.), so I thought better save it as image. [00:17] ben64: Works like a charm after mounting it, thanks. [00:17] It can only get to where the second partition is approx 90 gigs, and I dunno what parition is which [00:18] Schalla: yeah, image the whole thing [00:18] Pretty please, does anybody have the 1.7 GB ISO file of Ubuntu Studio v10.04.4 LTS 64 Bit. my DVD-R disc cracked :-( [00:18] Schalla: even if you have trouble getting what you need later, it's still better than only having parts of it [00:18] Schalla: there are specific tools to image ntfs partitions, which take into account non-allocated space [00:18] ay. when i use sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/win7.img i copy the whole disk including mbr and partitiontables, right? [00:19] Schalla: Correct. === ni124995 is now known as nick1 [00:19] Perfect. [00:19] Schalla: yeah, and pretty please tell me /mnt/ is not in a filesystem in /dev/sda [00:19] Schalla: you may prefer to copy the windows partition directly [00:19] njsg: No, it's my network mount :) [00:19] Schalla: mostly because mounting it will become easier [00:19] on my NAS === nick1 is now known as Guest42414 [00:20] guest-DHhjcT, That would be eol and not supported, probably on the web though. [00:20] using sudo mount -t cifs \\IP\public /mnt [00:20] Schalla: oh, one thing [00:20] *//IP/public [00:20] Yes? [00:20] damn. maybe if I could delete this partition or something [00:20] Schalla: if you ever plan to use this install on a machine with a different controller, you may want to run the windows out of box experience before making the image [00:20] controller, disk controller === Guest42414 is now known as nick1 [00:21] Hello, how do you set the default text to speech engine in ubuntu? i want to use festival [00:21] Guest42414, I would be using gparted for some of that, and windows to resize ant windows partitions. [00:21] any* [00:21] Are there Minimum hardware requirements for WD SATA 3 TB drive? GParted, Test Disk and Red Hat's Disk Utility F'd up the GPT [00:21] njsg: Why? [00:22] Schalla: windows won't boot if the HDD controller is not the same [00:22] Ah okay. [00:22] Schalla: if you do the out of box experience, the next boot runs the windows setup [00:22] Well that's fine, since I will have the same notebook for the next 3 years. [00:22] ^^ [00:22] ah ok [00:22] guest-DHhjcT: did you want the question answered, or the statement addressed? [00:22] hi all [00:22] njsg: You can not get the process of dd, hm? [00:22] right. so I just need to get a partition manager and delete the old one [00:23] Schalla: what do you mean? [00:23] and then I'll worry about boot manager after. [00:23] njsg: like 1% of 100% finished [00:23] Schalla: ah. you can send a signal to dd to have it print how much it already copied [00:24] guest-DHhjcT: GPT is a good idea, you might also want to consider the -m value for mkfs [00:24] "Sending a USR1 signal to a running 'dd' process makes it print I/O statistics to standard error and then resume copying." [00:24] Schalla: ^ [00:24] njsg: Ah okay [00:24] guest-DHhjcT: other than that, no particular requirements [00:24] guest-DHhjcT: sgdisk -Z /dev/whatever can get you back to square one, be careful what you point it at [00:24] In my remote server exec. commands as non interactive way how actually [00:24] How to get the commands issued in a ssh session [00:24] Schalla: the dd manpage mentions that as an example [00:24] njsg: Guess it will take some time anyway, since the hdd is 250gb [00:24] ^^ [00:24] Schalla: I suppose you can even use pkill, pkill -USR1 dd [00:25] Schalla: the bottleneck may even be the network [00:25] njsg: It writes with 35mb/s, should be fine. [00:25] ... which reminds me that I should get a gigabit switch someday :-D [00:25] 1GB Connection with a Gigabit Switch [00:25] :) [00:25] Yeah, bought mine 5 days ago [00:25] 28€, that's fine [00:26] heh, I don't even have a swicher, I just have a bunch of 100 mpbs cards I put on my desktop [00:26] in, 1gbps (although this building only gets 100mbps), out 100mbps [00:27] 100 Mbit Internet Connection -> Fritzbox -> DLAN (300mbps) -> 1GB Switch -> Desktop [00:27] ...still better than wlan [00:27] :Ö [00:27] :P [00:27] true [00:28] as far as I can, I use ethernet. much less problematic than wlan. although having bad 3g coverage does tempt me to get a wireless switch [00:30] Hi... I'm troubleshooting a user ssh issue- i can log in to the box via ssh (verified via auth.log), but no shell prompt appears. even verified the shell by running chsh for the user, /bin/bash is set in the passwd file. Any thoughts? [00:31] hello! so I have a SAS drive enclosure, it basically uses two SATA cables to connect to the board. Any idea how i'd find this array on the box? [00:34] How do you set the default text to speech engine in ubuntu? i want to use festival [00:37] deibuji: [ sudo dpkg-reconfigure festival ] Does anything happen? [00:38] SonikkuAmerica: doesn't give any output. let me see if mumble uses it now. [00:38] SonikkuAmerica: nope. unless i need to log out and in [00:39] deibuji: Hmmm... This is Ubuntu proper (with Unity), right? [00:39] ah, no. it's with i3; perhaps that's the issue? [00:42] deibuji: I doubt it... i3 is just a tiling window manager. [00:44] I want to split my hdd 50/50 put I get this screen during install http://imgbin.org/images/15357.png, what do I do? [00:44] SonikkuAmerica: although saying that i think i might have removed unity if i remember rightly [00:45] Guest74544: Like he said, you can pull the divider in the middle? [00:45] *like it says [00:45] You can also use the advanded partitiong tool. [00:46] That's what "he" said. :-) I would recommend GParted myself. [00:46] Schalla, I'm not sure which partition is which though [00:47] Guest74544: Does that really matter when they should be 50/50? [00:47] deibuji: Use the dmenu to pull up gnome-control-center and search for Default Applications [00:47] Well no, but it would be nice [00:47] :p [00:47] I'm installing it anyways, wish me luck xD [00:48] Guest74544, This a dualboot with W8? [00:48] Yea wilee-nilee [00:48] Guest74544, Well your installing so we will see what happens [00:49] I'll report back the results [00:51] Hi... I'm troubleshooting a user ssh issue- i can log in to the box via ssh (verified via auth.log), but no shell prompt appears. even verified the shell by running chsh for the user, /bin/bash is set in the passwd file. Any thoughts? (other users can log in) [00:52] hello.... I can't get firefox restarted.... [00:53] debfan_: killall firefox [00:54] when will ubuntu 13 10 be out? [00:54] ahh, okay... I'll try that next time [00:54] I think it just took a long time for the process to be stopped? [00:57] Freeder: your user's bashrc or similar files are funky? [00:58] hmm [00:58] hello all [00:58] 12.04.3 LTS and 13.04 which is better? [00:58] it should still load w/o a bashrc, right?

It's slated for inclusion in Ubuntu 14.04. For more information on it, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/Spec . For code, see https://launchpad.net/mir [01:03] But will be included in13.10 as well [01:03] what are the benefits [01:03] can you really call something next generation if the previous generation's developers haven't been involved with it?

[01:09] you are probably cd'd into it, or otherwise have a file of its open [01:09] Psil0Cybin: yeah [01:09] okay perfect thanks guys [01:09] Freeder: how do you know it's not loading? [01:09] Freeder: oh i misunderstood. Yeah, if you remove .bashrc it should still load. You have other files though that affect your shell. like .profile for example [01:09] Psil, i've wondered the exact same thing using WD external USB v3 drives [01:10] jrib: no clue. All I know is ssh authentication succeeds, but no shell prompt appears. [01:10] if im doing an apt-get install in ubuntu.. will it cause a conflict if i apt-get a second install at the exact same time? [01:10] *ie. 2 terminals.. [01:10] ok [01:10] Freeder: you can check with another user what your broken user has running when he tries to log in [01:10] maybe I'll just blow away the user and try again [01:10] Freeder: you just get a "stuck" prompt right? No new prompt? [01:11] is it me, or others sentences getting [01:11] no prompt at all [01:11] chopped off?? [01:11] and disconnects shortly after [01:11] c@localhost's password: [01:11] f [01:11] Freeder: try something like: ssh -t host bash --noprofile [01:11] Connection to localhost closed. [01:11] ok [01:11] Freeder: that's different [01:11] Freeder: if you're getting disconnected then it could some ssh setting kicking you out [01:13] yep [01:13] AllowUsers [01:13] sigh [01:13] thanks [01:13] Freeder: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[01:26] figured it out, thanks for the chat jrib [01:26] that user was set for sftp connections only [01:26] Freeder: what ended up being the isuse? [01:27] group, rather [01:27] Freeder: oh [01:27] for bonus points, if its sftp only, does that user still need a shell? [01:28] nope [01:28] cool.

When I boot, I get a message that "The disk drive for /dev/mapper/-swap_1 is not ready yet or not present." That stays up for twenty seconds or so, then I get the normal login prompt. Immediately after I log in, `swapon -s` shows that swap is okay. [02:43] /etc/crypttab has no mention of -swap_1, only cryptswap1. /etc/fstab has (otherwise) identical lines for both. Given that cryptswap1 seems to be working fine on its own, is just getting rid of -swap_1 the best thing to do? And how exactly would I do it? [02:44] anyone i can pm for help?

[02:51] uuuuh ya but no i customise all my buttons so i needed a program to do it [02:51] HateYoFace: ohh, drivers hell!! ok, now i understand your happiness :D [02:51] **customize [02:52] yes yes yes you're totally right [02:52] by the wa [02:52] y how did you do it!?

[02:57] HateYoFace: i'm all about kde ;) [02:57] so everyone you can't download itunes [02:58] as far as i know its not possible to play battlefeild 4 on ubuntu anytime soon maaaaaaaybe in wine but i cant imagine it running great [02:58] mimi2323: did you tried running it on wine? [02:58] mimi2323: Install a virtual machine [02:58] HateYoFace: yeah, you're right, may be at 30 fps or less :P [02:58] Msx/Buu: how do you do that [02:59] id be happy with 30 fps in all honesty lol as long as it ran half decent [02:59] well, the virtual machine will have a lot more overhead to your system and it will be a little more complicated to have itunes working on it the way you want with your *real* system [02:59] you can install itunes with wine bro [03:00] go cop that from the app store [03:00] mimi2323: i would recommend to install wine ($ aptitude search wine), then downloading the itunes.exe file and giving a try with: $ wine itunes_installer.exe [03:00] mimi2323: you might want to search the net as surely somebody may just have tried to run itunes on ubuntu [03:01] youtube is your friend [03:01] HateYoFace: I 2nd that [03:03] whats the most popular irc chat client for linux? [03:04] IRSSI [03:05] HateYoFace: there are a bunch [03:06] in contrast to buu's choice, if we are talking of "console" clients i would go with weechat all the way [03:06] HateYoFace: XChat and Konversation are also popular [03:06] if you're running ubuntu your best choice might be xchat, though [03:07] * Moonlightning uses weechat, loves it. x3 [03:07] yeah, but konversation is pure kde and will pull a lot of dependencies on an ubuntu desktop [03:07] if you're looking for a full-featured graphic client you might want to give quassel a try [03:07] it's full Qt w/o any kde dependency [03:07] and ubuntu/canonical is well known for embracing Qt lately... [03:10] ya im using xchat its alright im used to using mirc but ill adjust [03:11] HateYoFace: http://i.imgur.com/PXYGKBD.png [03:11] i myself am a big fan of weechat as Moonlightning but since i've found there's a quassel client for android (as well as for weechat and irssi) i'd stick to with it === jack is now known as Guest55906 [03:18] ubuntu 13.04 boots soooooooo fast on a ssd [03:21] I have an ubuntu server at home behind a NAT, and an ubuntu laptop that I use when I'm traveling.

For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee [03:23] tjj: you could set up an ssh tunnel, or an actual VPN. [03:23] * Moonlightning has an actual VPN just for this purpose. [03:23] mimi2323 You can run itunes only through Wine... Instead, try downloading the alternatives like RhythmBox and others [03:23] Moonlighting: Is there a web page or something that describes how to set up a vpn server?

[05:11] i just hook up my 42'' with a 15 ft hdmi cord and run video off my pc === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away [05:12] Ive got so many differnt players its scary. :) Wife watches her 24/7 - Im suprised its still working after 4+ years of constant use [05:13] with the new Smart Tv's dont even need most of the players any more. Plex Server on PC. and Plex Channel on the tv = handy way to watch my videos [05:14] Hello... trying to get sound working on 12.04 server.... looked at a bunch of pages but I get the feeling this requires more of a personalized touch... various pages take different approaches, none give me a warm fuzzy about changing things. [05:17] worse, I'm using kubuntu for the very first time... so I'm pretty far out of my element.. quassel irc... konq.... oh the pain.... [05:17] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and try them both. ;) [05:17] ubuntu uses pulse audio as a front end over alsa. not sure about kubuntu [05:17] no, I'll get use to this one... eventually. [05:17] kubuntu is my primary OS [05:17] its trivial to install both and select what you want at the login screen [05:18] Been testing out RazorQt lately [05:18] I'd show you the output of pulseaudio if I could figure out how to copy & paste :/ [05:18] use a pastebin web site please apb [05:18] !pastebin [05:18] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[05:22] or .mp3 files under one directory ? [05:22] the 'find' command can search for a pattern of files (and 10000x othe things) [05:23] or the locate command (but thats a bit more overkill) [05:23] Guest39656: find /path/to/dir -name "*png" [05:23] ls -R | grep mp3 ;) is a nother way i geuss [05:23] Dr_Willis: Here's the output of pulseaudio http://paste.ubuntu.com/6229728/ [05:24] find can use regular expressions - so can get quite powerfill [05:24] apb: i knwo very little about sound trouble shooting. Plus im on a console only raspberry pi. so got no browser [05:24] oh ok... thank you anyway [05:24] theres other sound experts in here from time to time. [05:24] hi, i need some help about my system. i cant boot my ubuntu, i tried everything from the internet like e2fsck on live cd. i still get an error target filesystem doesnt have requested /sbin/init.. [05:24] * apb listens for a sound expert [05:25] if you are using Kubuntu - i dident think kbuuntu used pulse audio. [05:25] but i could be wrong. ;P [05:25] don't really know [05:25] it's something I saw someone mention somewhere... but there was no context [05:25] lots of guesses out there [05:25] try this... try that [05:25] jeanepaul_: sounds like its trying to boot the wrong disk, or initrd/root is defined wrong. Tried that boot-repair tool? === Wug[Hyperspace] is now known as Wug [05:26] I'm sure someone that knows what they're doing can help :) [05:26] hey guys, I've got a question [05:26] apb: last sound issues i had.. was fixed by a single checkbox/change in one of the config gui's :) doing all this other stuff may dig the hole deeper for your problems. [05:26] i tried boot-repair tool [05:26] say I've got a gedit session running over ssh and it's editing files I want to edit [05:26] Dr_Willis: Precisely why I came here instead of randomly changing stuff [05:26] apb: does the live cd's work at all with sound? tried the latest live cd's tried the beta live cds? [05:26] installed it to a usb but it wont boot [05:27] is there a way I can kill it and get it to save its current edits without having access to its UI? [05:27] Dr_Willis: I don't know... no I haven't tried. [05:27] Wug: not that i know of. [05:27] I don't suppose it handles sigquit or something? [05:27] Wug: ive never seen it work that way. I tend to use console/text only editors over ssh. not gui ones. :) [05:27] Dr_Willis: It may have to do with a missing module... or something else. Really not sure. Over my head, not a sound expert either [05:28] Dr_Willis: the same question could be asked of vim or emacs [05:28] though the answers will be different. How do you do it with those? [05:28] apb: while you wait. you may as well grab the latest iso files and test them out. If for example 13.04 works and 12.04 dosent. that would point to some possible kernel differance/driver differanes and you could see what modules are in use [05:29] Dr_Willis: No, I can't mess with it. Rather do without sound then mess with what I have now. [05:29] Wug: personally i ssh in, use screen, or tmux, or byobu, then i dont have to force the editor to quit. the session stays alive if i disconnect [05:29] apb: what do you have setup now thats so critical? [05:29] this isn't a test system, at the moment it's my only system so I'm in a tight spot [05:29] Dr_Willis: asterisk [05:30] cant say ive ever used that. :) [05:30] jeanepaul_, You have the usb first read in the bios? [05:31] Dr_Willis: it's not for the timid :) I spent 6 months learning how to set it up in a virtual environment... then moved it to this physical machine about a month ago. [05:31] wilee-nilee: yes i think i got it right. will try again. i am stuck with this since yesterday and i cant go on with my projects this weekend [05:32] Dr_Willis: Then my windoze machine died a hairy death, and while I'm waiting for parts I figured I'd at least watch hulu and/or youtube while I wait for the mail to arrive some day. [05:33] jeanepaul_, There is also a outside the bios per session boot menu, the gui you first see when booting should tell you the key prompt for it. [05:33] so I can do without if I have to... only my sanity is at stake [05:33] testing with a live cd - is not goign to damgge yur current setup. ;) [05:34] err.. if you got it setup in a VM. you can clone the vm to any new install or so ive seen. that makes it even easier. but im just sayign to test the live cd. not upgrade the system [05:34] it may damage my sanity which is in a precarious situation right now [05:35] wilee-nilee: outside bios? i did not know that. i just set on my bios to boot first on my usb drive, save and exit. and all i cant get is a blinking underline [05:35] apb: to watch Crunchyroll.com - its all anime with subtitles. :) no need for sound. [05:35] definitely better than nothing [05:35] jeanepaul_, On my computer it is f12 at powering on. [05:36] jeanepaul_: ive seen esc, f1, f2, F8 f8, delete and backspace also get to bios [05:36] Every new pc/laptop i get i tend to put a little sticker by the key that gets to the bios. ;) i have had so many over the years [05:36] people winder whats with the little stickers on eveyr pc ;P [05:36] wilee-nilee: its delete on my computer [05:36] DEL gets to my BIOS [05:36] asus here - its delete. My EEE netbook its F2 or esc. [05:37] Oops... Delete on this keyboard [05:37] actually ive seen some that have keys just for getting to the 'pick what hd to boot' [05:37] then theres keys to get to the full bios. [05:37] F8 picks the HD here [05:37] So getting to windoze safe boot requires good timing :) [05:38] apb: yep. ;) seen that also [05:38] there's something to be said for standards [05:38] really makes ya wonder why they pick some of these keys [05:38] I talked to a BIOS programmer many years ago.... I was not impressed. [05:39] i definatly have seen keybaords that dont have a F* key unless you rember to hold down a FN- key also. that can really goof you up. [05:39] Have you seen the early BIOS's? Lord.... it makes you wonder if these guys have thumbs. [05:41] any sound experts arrive in the last little while? Got sound problems here.... [05:42] I would like to install windows in my virtual box. But i dont have an iso. is there any virtaul machine software that already has windows iso? [05:45] anyne know xorg config for dell optiplex 960 [05:46] jeez..... people pming me and I didn't even know it... now they're gone... why do people do that? [05:46] actually just having problems with monitor/screen setup with xorg. [05:51] it sees the hardware.... so it doesn't look like an ALSA problem I don't think? [05:51] wilee-nilee: it did not boot at first try, second try it booted. now inside boot-repair [05:54] sl33k: find a windows cd. make an iso. thers also legal ways to buy legal copies of windows on iso files. and free/legal downloads if you allready own windows and have a valid key # i recall seeing on lifehacker web site once. [05:55] wilee-nilee: i cant boot repair, please connect internet. but my networking on this machine is not working too [05:55] apb: theres apps that use alsa directly bypassing pulse audio. if those would work. then that would point to a pulse config issue [05:55] apb: i also recall twiddling with the pavucontrol tool once to get my HDMI audio working it was defaulting to the analog. [05:56] wilee-nilee: should i try advance options > repair file systems? [05:56] yeah, I saw someone mention pavucontrol somewhere... I don't want to just randomly try stuff. [05:56] i noticed the issue when i saw that the pavumeter tool was showing sound playing, but not hearing anything =- that pointed me to it being a mixer/output selection issue [05:57] if you dont try stuff you will never get anywhere i imagine [05:57] See that's something I could try... mixer [05:57] just rember what its set at to set it back [05:57] pavucontrol shows what all hardware is detected i recall also [05:57] are you using HDMI audio? or analog out? or somthing else? [05:57] well "Kinfocenter" shows what hardware is detected [05:57] as does lspci [05:58] kinfocenter is telling me that it's being seen by ALSA [05:58] whatever the heck that is [05:58] !alsa [05:58] If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [05:58] alsa is the core sound driver system for linux sound. [05:58] pulse audio runs on top of alsa [05:59] ok that's helpful to know [05:59] Not sure what kde uses instead of pulse. or if it uses pulse [05:59] though i'm still not sure what pulse audio does? [05:59] you might want to ask in #kubuntu [05:59] Pulse adds features to the sound system. allows several apps to play sound at the same time and so forth [05:59] ok that's helpful [05:59] select output on the fly, and other fetures people expect these days [06:01] let me check on the volume applet and see what that has to say for itself... I was in there once before but... let me see again. [06:01] if I can find it again :/ [06:01] be sure it has the right output speakers selected. ;) and device. if it lets you do that [06:01] should be a speaker test tool also somewhere [06:02] apb and Dr_Willis thanks [06:02] oh there's something called phonon [06:02] which seems to be some kind of audio app thingy [06:02] Guest39656: np [06:02] ive basically given up on KDE. ;) qtrazor however shows promise. [06:03] Dr_Willis: sound and video config [06:03] but my main machines these days are now netbooks and raspberry pis. [06:03] downsizeing in more ways then one. [06:06] everything I've tried says the device is there... but I just get no sound [06:07] that points to a mixer, or selected output device issue then tome [06:07] well, "phonon" has audio hardware setup... with a test button. [06:08] theres some sort of audio tools out that show a volume meter going up and down as you play sound [06:08] you dont have your headphones plugged in at the same time? ;) (been there, did that heh) [06:08] only headphones actually [06:08] at the moment [06:08] directly into the card [06:08] heh [06:09] when i am making script excuting multiple commands, do i have to enter ";" after each command or i should just start the new command on the new line ? [06:09] id check askubuntu.com - there may be some info on getting heaphones selected. [06:09] I had a headphone jack/adaptor plugged in once. (but no phones plugged in) = 2 hrs sound trouble shooting.. to realize i just had to unplug the thing. [06:09] headphones selected? [06:09] it's just the output port on the card... shouldn't have to seleect anything [06:09] Guest39656: on a script - a new line per command is easier to read [06:09] Dr_Willis, ok [06:10] unless it isn't :) [06:10] Guest39656: Some commands require a ; depends on what you're doing [06:10] apb: i think may cards these days can change what output is wht. it may not realize it is a headphone and think its like the rear audio plugged in or somthing [06:10] i still cant get it work. on my boot-info, i get lots of 'Disk /dev/mapper/mainserver--ub--vg-root doesnt contain a valid partition table' [06:10] Dr_Willis: I should mention that this is a semi-ancient machine [06:11] it's a dell 8100 handmedown [06:11] apd, would it be better if i apply ; in all those command ? [06:11] apb: ive seen dynamic/sensing sound cards 10 yrs agi. [06:11] Guest39656: no [06:11] or when is ; used ? [06:11] Guest39656: If you get errors... then worry about it [06:12] Dr_Willis: I would think I'd get at least some kind of something... right now it's dead quiet [06:12] apb: try the other jacks perhaps. [06:12] apb, i can check wether script ran without error by checking exit status $? === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [06:12] and if i explicitly got any errors. [06:12] Guest39656: Or you could just look at it and see if it gives an error [06:13] Dr_Willis: ok [06:13] Dr_Willis: although I believe the three ports are mic, speaker out, line in - in that order [06:13] left to right === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [06:14] Dr_Willis: should i just install new ubuntu to other disk and recover all files from not working installation of ubuntu? [06:14] apb, ok [06:14] jeanepaul_: or just use a live cd to recover the files perhaps. [06:15] holy crap.... I think this thing has 5 ports!!!! [06:15] Dr_Willis: i need to recover all dev_vms. if i could just recover them, i would never have problems.. will try recovering it from a live cd [06:15] im not even suer what a dev_vms is. ;) [06:16] Dr_Willis: oh, its my development_virtual machinces :) [06:16] Dr_Willis: its where i get a living from my day to day work and stuck in my ubuntu-server === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [06:18] How can I install quicktime on chromium-browser [06:20] bl4ckdu5t: you'd probably want browser-plugin-vlc or gecko-mediaplayer [06:21] reisio: Do you mean I should do an apt-download of that [06:22] evening all. i have a ubuntu server setup here. I'm looking for a way to sandbox this server. i had previously had it setup behind its own router which i would vpn to to connect. but it was a big mess to setup. is there an idea way to have a machine off the grid, yet somewhat on? or am i over thinking all of this? [06:22] bl4ckdu5t: apt-get, or use software center, sure [06:22] amh345: proxy is about as well as you can do [06:22] which is what a vpn is, basically [06:22] I just reinstalled ubuntu 12.0.4 and my screen will not turn off when my computer has been inactive. Any ideas how to solve this? [06:23] ryorky1: ordinary Ubuntu? [06:23] reisio: so is a router that this machines connected to behind another router (that has all my consoles and stuff on) worth doing? [06:23] reisio: yes, ubuntu version 12.0.4 [06:23] I guess it depends on how long it takes you [06:24] reisio: any ideas? [06:24] ryorky1: what make/model? [06:24] the end goal here is i have a machine with all my special data.. dev stuff. etc etc. backups. that is somewhat protected.. but that i can ALSO remote/vpn into when I'm offsite. [06:24] someone can help me? [06:24] i'd also like to develop off of it. ugh. maybe I'm asking for too much. [06:25] amh345: theoretically not any more protected [06:25] reisio: hp pavillion dv6. it worked until I recently reinstalled [06:25] canaima17242: ...with? [06:25] ryorky1: why'd you reinstall? [06:25] because it's still hooked through the other router, reisio ? [06:25] how i can install firefox? im noob :( [06:25] if you can reach it, anyone can [06:25] right. [06:25] reisio: was having some issues w/ apache [06:25] you could slow someone down by making it more complex [06:26] but it'll also slow you down [06:26] ok, so it would be about the same to lock this sandboxed server down and just throw it on the network? [06:26] im not user linux :S [06:26] amh345: it'd be close enough [06:26] amh345: your time :) [06:27] canaima17242: open software center, look for firefox [06:27] when i had the vpn through the one router to the router that has the machine- i could never get it to work on my data connect. and to top it off, my router bricked and i had to reset it. losing all the work i put into the mess of routing the vpn. [06:27] canaima17242: last i looked - firefox was installed by default on ubuntu [06:27] so now I'm left sitting here.. trying to decide what to do with this. [06:27] bricked means you've turned a physical device into something as useful as a brick [06:27] it means you can't use it anymore [06:27] it doesn't mean you can press a button and it works again :) [06:27] just saying [06:27] lot of people misusing that term lately [06:27] Dr_Willis: i could not see my files from primary disk. all i can see is external disks from live cd.. will reinstall ubuntu... [06:27] ok. SOFT bricked. if there is such a thing :/ [06:28] there isn't :) [06:28] hah [06:28] but I know what you mean [06:28] ok, the password got corrupted. and i couldn't log in. [06:28] jeanepaul_: did you properly mount them? [06:28] so i had to flash it. [06:28] anyways. do you have any recommendations for this? [06:28] my software is GNU/linux..that dont have software center :S [06:28] another argument for using an ordinary GNU/Linux as a router [06:28] canaima17242: it has if it's Ubuntu [06:29] Dr_Willis: how can i mount them from live_cd? from disk_utility? [06:29] ok.. srry.. :S [06:29] jeanepaul_: proper use of the mount command is how i normally mount things [06:30] one of the other thoughts i had was to just put this machine off the network entirely and sit it on it's router by itself. then assign my eth0 on my laptop to that other router and have all other traffic go through wifi). but even then. not good. [06:30] amh345: pay a beautiful model to personally filter commands send to one computer, and if appropriate, type them in manually into the special box [06:31] reisio: i thought about that. she could 'intern' [06:31] hey guys.. where can i get the drivers / tools to manage a Adaptec ASR-2405 from Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal) .. ? [06:31] :p [06:31] she would get experience. while doing my bidding. one of her duties would be simple. suntanning. [06:31] Adaptec's site seems to only support up to v11.. wondering if there is another repo that would have it [06:31] amh345: there is such a thing as soft brick: it means one step away from brick ( such as performing a reboot ) [06:31] joobz: what's an asr-2405? [06:31] reisio, RAID card [06:31] Dr_Willis: tried mounting it on a terminal, 'unknown filesystem type LVM2_member' [06:32] I run it on my media center box [06:32] so after all this. I'm not really any closer to deciding on an approach to this mess. i think I'm wanting the impossible. [06:32] amh345: and usually a soft brick isn't a point that is not recoverable from either [06:32] is* [06:32] hitsujiTMO: i just had to ref lash it because my pw was corrupt. [06:33] but it sucked because i had all my vpn stuff that took me forever to do-- configured. [06:33] thats just a fuckup [06:33] and then.. i was defeated. [06:33] backup as you go ftw! [06:33] jeanepaul_: i dont use lvm. so all i can suggestis check out the lvm wiki pages. [06:33] !lvm | jeanepaul_ [06:33] jeanepaul_: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [06:33] well, i couldn't back up because i couldn't remember the password. hah. [06:33] you should have backuped your password onto a post-it-note [06:34] so i did something to reset the password, according to the docs. only there was a goof,,.. escaped char or something.. i don't recall. that basically made the password dead. [06:34] joobz: ah [06:34] joobz: what do you want raid for? [06:34] Dr_Willis: i now scan post it notes with passwords. store them on my tablet.. behind a finger print. only i lost my fingers. so now I'm screwed again. [06:34] reisio, i store my movies on there.. just wanted it there for redundancy so i dont lose my stuff [06:35] amh345: one thing i learned from configing a cisco 3845: constantly backup the config as you go [06:36] I've a question. On Windows I'm able to use the video slots on my motherboard and extend my desktop to them, with the rendering being done on my AMD 7970 [06:36] well guys, it's been a slice. but i think i need to go an investigate this shitty impossible idea i have in my brain. [06:36] worst: i use multi monitors in ubuntu all the time. :) [06:36] amh345: hear hear [06:36] !language | amh345 [06:36] amh345: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [06:37] Dr_Willis: I know mutli-monitors work [06:37] :/ [06:37] Dr_Willis: My problem is I want to have 2 monitors plugged into my motherboard and 2 plugged into my video card [06:38] On windows I can extend the desktop across despite the displays being on different video cards [06:38] * sixy-home waves [06:38] worst: it should be doable. if the drivers support that many. and the cards can do it. [06:38] worst: ive done it befor with Nvidia cards. [06:38] but with any over 2 - ive had issues in the past. (not tried it lately. my desk is too small) [06:38] everything lindows can do linux can! :) [06:38] Hm [06:39] xscreensaver even has BSOD [06:39] worst, what do you mean by extend the desktop though [06:39] * sixy-home waves reisio [06:39] sixy-home: I have 4 monitors. 2 of them plug into my video card and 2 into the slots on my motherboard. [06:39] * reisio tides [06:39] ah i see worst, ok [06:39] doh! [06:40] On windows I'm able to have the screens work side-by-side [06:40] so you can extend one desktop across all monitors? [06:40] oh [06:40] im 100% u can do that on linux too [06:40] i forgot where to find the classic drop down menu of my installed stuff... that i used to have on top lright ... [06:40] proper configs [06:40] I'm 101% sure [06:40] Mute was set on the playback setting.... something I checked, but the font is so damn tiny I couldn't see it. [06:40] Does anyone have any insight as to how though? [06:40] unfortunately im very bad with screen and video setup on linux :( [06:41] worst: how to do what? [06:41] hi all [06:41] worst: not sure what you mean side by side? I have my desktop setup where i can drag windows to any of my monitors. [06:41] jmgk: hi [06:41] Dr_Willis: precisely what I want [06:41] worst: works virtually identiclly to how windows does it [06:42] Dr_Willis: I have it working for 2 monitors [06:42] worst: plug stuff in, and see what happens. You might need to use the fglrx drivers. [06:42] I suspect he means [here's one screen and...][...here's the other] [06:42] I have fglrx [06:42] apb, yes [06:42] the problem is I have 2 in my video card [06:42] two fglrx and two intel? [06:42] and 2 in my intel [06:42] Yes [06:42] I suspect he means [here's one screen and...][...here's the other][and here's the third] [06:42] worst: what you getting on the monitors now? [06:42] mm, probably need some xrandr magic [06:43] well right now I'm just trying to get 3 going [06:43] and on 2 [06:43] I have it working [06:43] the 2 on my video card [06:43] 2 have a black screen [06:43] Dr_Willis: You were right for the most part... it was a setting... in my case... the mute. [06:43] worst whats output of: xrandr [06:43] apb: ;) [06:44] i forgot where to find the classic drop down menu of my installed stuff... that i used to have on top lright ... [06:44] or what it called [06:44] inetk: for ubuntu/unity - theres some extra extensions/indicator applets. or other toosl that add a similer feature. [06:44] inetk: unless you want to use a classic-gnome-2 look alike mode. [06:44] http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Q0AGBV8u [06:45] inetk: i recall seeing several mentioned at askubuntu.com once. Not tried any lately. so im not sure what new ones may be out. or what old one/ways me be discontinued [06:46] inetk: i saw one that you could put in the left side panel and gave a nice full menu of apps. but i cant recall its name [06:46] hey dryw [06:46] Dr_Willis, [06:46] worst: i think drivers might be your issue [06:46] Moo jmgk :) [06:46] lol [06:46] * jmgk milks Dr_Willis [06:47] Fresh milk ya hear [06:47] ... [06:47] I assumed he was a cow [06:47] :P [06:47] hitsujiTMO: howso? [06:47] cowsay $(fortune) [06:47] lol [06:47] worst is that with all 4 monitors attached? [06:47] just 3 [06:48] ahh kk [06:48] what I'm wanting to do is run my 2 side monitors off the intel [06:48] and my projector + main off the video card [06:48] your projector? :) [06:48] hey give me your address and tell me when you're out :p [06:49] :p [06:49] lol [06:49] he takes it with him when he leaves. ;) its one of those Cell Phone sized prokectors. ;P [06:49] projectors are overrated [06:49] no they aren't :) [06:49] ok, the 3rd monitor is expanding the desktop alright, so i'd have to guess that its a driver issue [06:50] datfykins: My 100 inch 3d wall screen would beg to disagree [06:50] perfect for watching My little Ponies.. [06:50] 3rd monitor was plugged into video card before [06:50] which is why it's coming up in xrandr [06:50] as if it's there [06:50] worst: most walls are 3D :( [06:51] daftykins: 100 inch [06:51] except the really really flat ones. [06:51] size != quality [06:51] size = size, though [06:51] ^ [06:51] anyway I'm going to reboot and come back with xrandr [06:51] be right back [06:51] wii bowling on a 100 inch screen. ;) [06:52] not even HD :( [06:52] hd is overrated. :) [06:52] also Wii bowling was so several years ago, ermagerd [06:52] daftykins: hd if run from dolphin :) [06:52] naaah [06:53] brb [06:53] truth be told i've not seen a proper 1080p projector in person [06:54] hi [06:54] hi [06:54] hrmmm [06:54] I forget if work has 1080 or 720 [06:54] it's large and in charge, though [06:55] reisio: work!? you need to bust that sucker out ;) [06:56] i'm just used to seeing projectors that aren't propperly calbrated to the screen, so no point in having high resolutions on them [06:56] Dr_Willis: it just wont work with live_cd;: i hate it when things like this happens. i chose to develop by using vm so i could not worry about when crash happens. now crash happens to a host and all vm's unusable. i cant remember anything doing wrong except i just added a new disk, use gparted, then configure it to add storage pool in virt-manager [06:56] daftykins: :p [06:56] nn all [06:57] ninite [06:58] jeanepaul_: i dont know enough about lvm to even reccomend anything. i tend to avoid complex setups [06:58] lvm is great if you know ahead of time that you will forget something ahead of time [06:59] * reisio keeps face straight [06:59] Dr_Willis: im not even sure why i got lvm. i just follow the installation from ubuntu-server while partitioning. i just hit yes and yes. im not 100% agile with ubuntu so i wont bother anything about lvm. im just using ubuntu to host a development environment for me [06:59] lvm can be useful for encryption, too [07:00] but isn't strictly required [07:02] how about using attempt rescue date in gparted? will it recover my files? [07:03] jeanepaul_: how did you try to mount the lvm volumes? [07:03] gparted can rescue data? @.@ [07:03] gparted manages partions.. Im not even sure it touches lvm stuff at all [07:03] o well it can ;d [07:03] ive definatly seen people in here haveing issues deleteling redhat lvm partions (?) with gparted befor. [07:04] hey whats an lvm partition ? [07:04] I dont use lvm so no idea. ;) [07:04] !lvm [07:04] Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [07:04] i hae just seen a HUGE number of issues with people and lvm in here the last month or 2 [07:04] Dr_Willis: i did this sudo mount /dev/mainserver-ub-vg/ a [07:04] it makes recovery more complicated [07:05] normally they seem to be using it with no idea how it actually works. ;) [07:05] 'cause they used an installer :) [07:06] ive not noticed the ubuntu installer using lvm. but I tend to manually set up my partions [07:06] redhat and fedora i think use lvm by default. [07:06] Dr_Willis: followed instructions from here http://pissedoffadmins.com/os/mount-unknown-filesystem-type-lvm2_member.html [07:06] i think the ubuntu installer default to non lvm iirc [07:07] it might be encrypted disks/homes/partions use lvm. ( ive learned to avoid that feature also) ;P [07:07] unless you do encryption [07:07] mmm [07:08] hi, am using xchat-gnome for irc. How can i set my nickname and password for auto login ? [07:08] Sup guys? [07:09] dixon_: most people perfer to use the normal xchat. I know that has it in its serrver settings area. not sure about xchat-gnome, you did look in its settings menu/items? [07:09] dixon_: in network list in the menu [07:09] mPrometheus: sup [07:09] dixon_: CTRL+s, traditionally [07:10] edit; nickserv password, server password (set both, same pass) [07:10] not much, thought I'd try this irc thing out. [07:10] got it :) but why to add server password ? [07:10] Then theres the sasl stuff to identify. Not real sure how it gets mixed in. ;) I have to use sasl on my android phone - or else freenode dosent like me. [07:11] dixon_: 'cause IRC is old and rickety [07:11] :) will test it.. [07:12] Also, difference between xchat and xchat-gome ? both are not same ? [07:12] dixon_: they are defaintaly not the same [07:12] xchat-gnome is xchat b0rked the way gnome people like it [07:12] xchat-gnome is more dumbed down i guess you can say [07:13] probably has its prefs hidden in gconf [07:13] Most people seem to perfer xchat - over xchat-gnome [07:13] the way gnome likes it [07:13] both be replaced by hexchat eventually [07:13] hmm.. i am seeing.. [07:13] I prefer hexchat over xchat :P [07:13] or hexchat-gnome [07:13] looks like better to switch back to xchat.. [07:13] * reisio shrugs [07:13] hexchat ? [07:14] will read about it.. [07:14] hexchat is an xchat spinoff [07:14] eventually hexchat will be there and xchat won't [07:14] you don't have to think about it [07:14] i cant really say ive noticed much differance. I use hexchat on windows [07:14] hexchat has actual bug fixes :p [07:14] 'bout it [07:14] it's maintained [07:14] I tend to use weechat mainly these days [07:14] you sicko! [07:15] Hello, I have a pretty simple question, and googling I can find details, but I just want to make sure I understand it before I press. I am running 13.10 and a uname -a says I'm running kernel version 3.11.0-12-generic. I thought running apt-get dist-upgrade would update the kernel and software after an update. But when I look at kernel.ubuntu.com I see a 3.11.4. Should I manually update to 3.11.4 or will apt-get upgrad [07:15] took 5 hrs to compile weechat on my raspberry pi. ;) [07:15] dixon_: here's a ppa for hexchat if you want to try it: ppa:gwendal-lebihan-dev/hexchat-stable [07:15] poor little pi was all tuckered out [07:15] heh [07:15] cross compiling my man [07:15] it's barely different from xchat at this point [07:16] i should set up distcc on all my pi's :P [07:16] EricKit: You can only run a new kernel after rebooting [07:16] EricKit: You should probably be running the kernel that apt-get upgrade; gives you [07:16] distcc gumstix cluster [07:16] EricKit: the latest at kernel.com may be newer then whats in the repos. [07:16] kernel.com is my favie [07:17] EricKit: stick with whats in the repos. unless you have a major need to use the others [07:17] Hello .. i downloaded ubuntu 13.04 amd64 for my intel 64 laptop which is before 2011 .. and made a btable usb .. [07:17] Dr_Willis: Thanks for the information, do you know which repo contains the kernel? [07:17] when booting my usb after reboot .. [07:17] EricKit: theres some unoffiical ppa's - i dont need them. so dont use them [07:17] !kernel [07:17] The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) [07:18] it shows PXE error ,, and i cant install ubuntu [07:18] Dr_Willis: Do you manually update your kernel then? [07:18] EricKit: i use whats in the repos.. ive never needed any other kernels [07:18] please help me to install ubuntu from my bootabale usb without trying PXE option .. is there a way to disable PXE option? [07:19] to me using ubuntu means 'i dont have to worry about the kernel' [07:19] Dr_Willis: Makes sense. I'm having an issue that I was hoping maybe the new kernels fixed [07:19] Roshan: when you boot the laptop open the boot menu: PXE is network boot and is last on the list [07:19] you want usb not pxe [07:20] ya .. [07:20] When my computer suspends, it immediately wakes up. I can't find any logs that say what triggered the wake-up. I have looked in dmesg and the suspend log [07:20] Thanx .. [07:20] EricKit: easy way to test would be try the latest live-cd of the 13.10 release with the newer kenel. (but i dont know what version thats using right now) [07:20] i ll see to that [07:20] EricKit: but it wouldbe the safest way to test ;) [07:20] EricKit: maybe the peeps in #ubuntu+1 can hel you fix it [07:20] i never use suspend or hibernate either. ;) [07:21] Haha, thanks guys! Appreciate the info [07:22] @hitsujiTMO i select USb.. [07:22] if its going to PXE boot when you select USB then the usb prob isn't bootable [07:23] i used universal usb installer to make it .. [07:23] what filesystem? [07:24] FAT [07:24] also have you disabled secure boot/fast boot in your bios/uefi of you have it? [07:24] my laptop is very old..bought in 21 .. [07:24] no uefi [07:25] might have fast boot tho [07:25] disable fast boot if its there: that inits USB too late on most boards to boot from USB [07:28] no fast boot in my laptop [07:30] roshan: then i can only think that the usb was not written to correctly, try creating it again, or use a different tool [07:30] hi guys [07:31] any body can help me to resolve my issue in kernel programming? [07:31] any body have kernel programming experience ? [07:32] ho Roshan [07:32] RoboC0der, would probably be better if you just stated your issue [07:32] I have a headless ubuntu 12.04.2 server in my house, it serves up all my media through Plex Media server, Also it acts as a torrenting box. I can listen to all my music via plex's web interface. What I haven't figured out yet is how to set up something like a DAAP server so that I can access all my music from, say, Banshee [07:32] any advice? [07:33] wiehan: have you looked at forked-daapd ? [07:33] jmgk hi [07:33] !find daap [07:33] Found: forked-daapd, libnet-daap-dmap-perl, python-daap, xmms2-plugin-daap [07:33] !info python-daap [07:33] python-daap (source: python-daap): DAAP client implemented in Python.

Version 0.7.1-3build2 (raring), package size 19 kB, installed size 97 kB [07:34] !info forked-daapd [07:34] forked-daapd (source: forked-daapd): media server with support for RSP, DAAP, DACP and AirTunes. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.19gcd-2.1 (raring), package size 160 kB, installed size 484 kB [07:34] hitsujiTMO, No I will now. I need something that can be set up via ssh and run on start up and requires no gui [07:34] thx XQuasar for your notice ;) i have some problem in compiling of my own made kernel , i trying to add my own write module to kernel but it's gonna to some trouble in bootup! [07:34] wiehan: that would be most of the various dlna/upnp/daap servers out there i imagine. :) they work as a service. [07:35] wiehan: What the heck does plex even do? [07:35] i thought plex could work as a music server also. but i dont use the feature [07:35] buu: its sort of a heavly forked XBMC. with the client/server split apart [07:35] I have no idea how cinnamon got installed. Does anyone know the right way to Purge Cinnamon from Ubuntu 12.04? [07:35] buu plex is a beautiful media server [07:35] buu: I have the plex server running on the home pc. the plex 'channel' on my roku lets it get to my media. same as the plex app on my tablets [07:35] So it has a server that indexes local content and a client that displays it over a network? [07:36] plus theres Plex-Pi for the raspberry pi to turn any tv into a plex enabled tv. [07:36] Dr_Willis, I run the plex app and plexbmc from my ouya! [07:36] Dr_Willis: apparently plex is pretty bad for DAAP support [07:36] theres the Plex Server, then the Plex Clients. it is a Dlna/Upnp server [07:36] hitsujiTMO: i dont use daap so no idea. ;) [07:37] plex also has a 'service' where you can access your files over the internet, for so much a month. like $4 or somthing.. [07:37] plex website is impressively uninformative. [07:37] saves on having to figure out port forwarding and dynamic ips and otehr thigns. === gbc is now known as wa5qjh [07:38] So is there a plex 'media center' for linux also? [07:38] Or just windows/osx? [07:38] the plex media center is indows only. theres Plex Clients for android. [07:39] and the PlexPi specific disrto [07:39] I currently have Plex running as a plugin on FreeNAS, so there must be a nix port. [07:39] any upnp/dlna client can access the plex server [07:39] Armegeden: That's the server part right? [07:39] Yes [07:39] my xbmc machines can see the plex server. [07:39] Dr_Willis: I mean, I want a shiny frontend that shows me movies/tv/etc with nice menus and pictures? [07:39] as can all the dlna clients [07:39] I have the client on my iPhone, but from the PC, I just use the HTTP interface. My Roku also has the Plex client. [07:39] On a linux box connected to a tv [07:39] buu, xmbc? [07:39] buu: xbmc, or any dlna client can do it [07:39] oh [07:40] Is there any advantage to using xbmc with plex? [07:40] but the plex Channel on the Roku - makes it rather easy to get going [07:40] xbmc can access a plex or any dlna server. so its a matter of what you like [07:40] xbmc also does smb and nfs too [07:40] my xbmc-enabled pis can access the shared videos. [07:41] buu, Plex is that shiny front end. You add a directly of Movies or TV shows, then it reaches out and downloads JPG cover photos, synopsis, etc. Then makes a very nice looking webpage for it all. [07:41] buu: just so you are aware, part of plex is closed source (in case that affects your choice) [07:41] the plex server. when running on WINDOWS - does have a few extra features ive noticed (well seen, never got them working) like the ability to watch amazon prime, or netflix from the plex clients [07:42] nothing stopping them from netflix, except that they haven't implemented it yet [07:42] Hi again all [07:42] Plex also has the ability to add "Stations". For example, I currently have The Daily Show, TED, NPR, etc. So I can stream my personal stuff or one of those channels from any of the clients. [07:42] well on windows i think they some how run netflix/silverlight in thebackground and reencode/broadcast it to the client. [07:42] Armegeden: So I'd install the plex server on the serverbox then access the media via http/web interface? [07:42] ive not gotten much of the stations to ever work. [07:42] well on windows, silverlight has historically been available :p [07:42] buu: or any dlna client. [07:43] plex also charge for the client on android [07:43] Dr_Willis: I guess I'm confused what you mean by dnla client. Isn't that just a regular media streaming client? [07:43] buu, from a PC, sure. On your iPhone/Android/Samsung Smart TV/Roku/etc, there are specific plex apps that interact very well. [07:43] hitsujiTMO: yep - it was on sale about 3 weeks ago for $1 [07:43] Er, streaming protocol [07:43] buu: 'regular media' means very little. :) DLNA/Upnp is a specific type of streaming [07:43] Armegeden: Right now I've got a linux box with movies/etc in one room, then the tv room has a tivo and a linux box hooked up to it [07:44] The Plex client on my iPhone picks up the DLNA multicast. However, you can add the Plex server by IP (if you're not routing multicast) [07:44] take mplayer over any of them any day [07:44] I got a Plex Server setup - shareing several TB of vidoes to about 4 differnt devices. Roku. Pi, smart tv. and other pcs [07:45] with the plex channel on the pi, smart tv, and roku. the interface for the client is virtually identical [07:45] Yep. They're pretty good at the unity part. [07:45] Making it all look the same. === [Batou] is now known as HisaoNakai [07:45] http://paste.ubuntu/6229416/ [07:46] ive been looking through all the xbmc themes - to find one that dosent confuse my wife. ;) [07:46] but shes been using the same media-player box now for 4+ years. it sort of supports dlna even. but its so old. it dosent do it well [07:46] hexchat looks like refined xchat, really liked this..:) [07:46] dixoncx: i honestly cant recall noticeing any differance. ;) [07:47] of course xchat from like 6 yrs ago was a bit differnt in subtle ways also. [07:47] buu, so http://www.plexapp.com/desktop/ lists Plex Media Server Download in Ubuntu, Fedora, and CentOS flavors. [07:48] i recall some KDE irc clients that were a bit on the radical side if you want massive feature sets dixoncx [07:48] In ubuntu unity, it may require more dependencies..? [07:48] I want to share some external drives connected to my desktop with other pc's (with linux and window operating system) do I need to use samba or is sharing and mapping sufficient? [07:49] dixoncx: a kde app would pull in whatever kde dependencies it needed [07:49] paulus68_1: shareing and maping.. does use samba i belive. [07:49] ^ this [07:49] paulus68_1: you want to share FROM a windows box or a linux box? [07:50] Dr_Willis: from a linux box [07:50] windows can map a share to a drive letter - that still uses samba on the linux box. [07:50] Armegeden: Yeah, I was trying to figure out exactly what the media server actually did [07:50] windows can also do nfs iirc [07:50] Dr_Willis: install samba on the linux box and start configuring [07:50] ive never managed to find a nfs server on windows.. (havent looked lately) [07:50] paulus68_1: yep. [07:51] hitsujiTMO: you can't on windows 8.. [07:51] Dr_Willis: ok thx [07:51] paulus68_1: if you are shareing a NTFS partition, you may need to mount it from /etc/fstab with specific options to allow the share to work [07:52] hitsujiTMO: this is my problem http://askubuntu.com/questions/312751/pxe-e53-no-boot-filename-received [07:53] Dr_Willis: these are 2 ntfs and 1 fat32 [07:53] paulus68_1: then as i said - you will most likely need to mount them from /etc/fstab with the right options to allow the shares to work [07:54] roshan, looks like: http://youtu.be/7n5Z-GO84fk?t=1m19s [07:54] Dr_Willis: thx [07:54] ?? [07:54] set up the shares in /etc/samba/smb.conf [07:55] Favorite change from 13.04 -> 13.10? I guess the changes to "lens"es? [07:56] lensi ;) [07:56] oh and I guess really the Click format? [07:56] cant say ive notied tht [07:56] Roshan : does it look like: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/library/BUSINESS/TALISMA/291.jpg ?? [07:56] Im trying to decide if I should reinstall 13.04 or wait a few days for 13.10 release [07:57] hitsujiTMO: ya .. [07:57] exactly [07:58] ryan_turner|MTW: or install 13.10 now - and update/upgrade on the 16th.. then wait a week to upgrade to the final [07:58] roshan, thats your computer trying to boot from the network, its skipped over the USB [07:58] whats the exact model of your laptop? [07:58] Dr_Willis, my last upgrade/date experience was bad, is this feature working well now? [07:58] i set network at last .. [07:58] USB in the second below HDD .. [07:59] ryan_turner|MTW: i cant see why doing a upgrade to 13.10 final from 13.10 beta sould be any problems at all [07:59] Dell Inspirion N4040 [07:59] Is the usb plugged into a hub or direct to the computer? [07:59] Dr_Willis, should I just install the nightly? [07:59] ryan_turner|MTW: why are you installing nightly builds ? [08:00] what benifit do you hope to get ? [08:00] ikonia, razor baldes [08:00] the final release is just days away. [08:00] blades* [08:00] Honestly Im just responding to Dr_Willis's advice... [08:00] ryan_turner|MTW: razor blades is just a random phrase, nothing to do with the question I asked [08:00] "cutting edge" [08:00] ryan_turner|MTW: it's not though..... [08:00] It was a joke. === Wug is now known as Wug[Hyperspace] [08:01] ikonia, I was responding to ryan_turner|MTW: or install 13.10 now - and update/upgrade on the 16th.. then wait a week to upgrade to the final [08:01] I see. [08:01] Anyone know the news that Steve Ballmer funded some Linux? [08:01] I am not intimate with the project, especially near the end of QA lifecycle here [08:01] so I dont know how "beta" "beta' is. [08:01] for info, Am using ubuntu 13.10 beta, updated.. [08:01] jmgk: nothing to do with this channel [08:01] hm [08:01] jmgk, thats not on topic here [08:01] Oh sorry [08:02] I just heard [08:02] When is the new Ubuntu coming out? [08:02] take it to #ubuntu-offtopic [08:02] 10/17 [08:02] ok [08:03] ryan_turner|MTW: i update/upgrade the day befor release.. then hang on for a week or 2 to upgrade to final because the servers are often so overloaded its nasty slow to do a install on release day. :) [08:03] Does anyone have any idea how I would run monitors off my intel 4000 and my AMD 7970 [08:03] roshAn: when you boot hit f12 should give you the boot menu: is the usb there? [08:04] hm [08:04] worst: you'd need to run two x servers, you may not be able to use 3d acceleration in that config, but it's worth checking [08:04] hitsujiTMo it s there .. [08:04] Dr_Willis, what is your IRC client [08:04] i selected the USB storage === insulamsimia is now known as islandmonkey [08:04] jmgk: i use weechat, or andchat most of the time [08:04] ikonia: On windows I'm able to render on my 7970 to the monitors plugged in to my intel [08:04] and andchat [08:04] and and [08:04] worst you're not using windows. [08:04] ah [08:04] select it and if that doesnt boot the usb, then your usb is not bootable [08:05] Wee chat is slow? [08:05] ikonia: obviously. I was curious if this was possible. [08:05] jmgk: why would you think that? [08:05] oh [08:05] well no I mean the scrolling isnt working for me [08:05] worst: totally possible, however the capabilities/performance will depend very much on your card and it's linux support, and the linux modules that are compatible with your version of ubuntu [08:05] jmgk: if Ballmer funds, he is only to sue Linux [08:05] jmgk: well, you're on xchat now, [08:05] uh [08:06] I know [08:06] Roshan: stop it [08:06] jmgk: huh? ive no issues with weechat being slow. Im using it on a raspberyr pi right now (0.4.1 version) and this rather low end pi has no issues keeping it up :) [08:06] haha Roshan [08:06] oh I see. wow its that light Dr_Willis [08:06] ikonia: I see. I've built and installed the proprietary amd drivers + used the intel installer [08:06] jmgk: it did take it 5 hrs to compile on the pi. ;) but thats because i wanted the latest versionb [08:06] oh wow [08:06] ikonia: Sorry . i was just pointing how evil ballmer is [08:07] Roshan, we Linux nerds know :) [08:07] jmgk: there is a weechat android front end that connects to a weechat client running on a pc. and a qt gui front end - but ive never used that. [08:07] jmgk: you really don't know and you're loooking foolish making these comments, so please stop now. [08:07] ah ok Dr_Willis thanks for the tip. Ah cool QT GUI seems awesome aswell === Guest39656 is now known as xtriz [08:08] jmgk: ive no idea how well the gui is. or if its useable at all. [08:08] oh [08:08] ikonia: do you have any advice as where I should go with this? [08:08] I am using weechat on a console framebuffer (using fbterm) on my Raspberry PI right now. [08:08] oh [08:08] worst: well, what are you not actually sure on [08:09] ikonia: currently monitors plugged into the intel just come up with a black screen [08:09] worst: how have you got your xserver configured/laid out [08:10] jmgk: weechat has some features that take a bit of learning to make maximum use of. :) but its worth the effort [08:10] ikonia: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=cTGd9xxG [08:10] Allritite I'll give it a shot Dr_Willis [08:11] worst: there is no intel config in there, that's why there is nothing coming up, you only have the ati card configured [08:11] HitsujiTMO : i think i can turn off boot to network option ..and see it works [08:11] worst: this is two seperate cards right ? eg: two physical cards, or two onboards, etc. [08:11] ikonia: Right. Odd thing is it has my monitor there (the one I can't activate) [08:12] which is DFP5 [08:12] worst: not really odd, it can detect two monitors plugged in, however if you don't enable/configure the card it's plugged into, it can't send data to it [08:12] it's an AMD 7970 and the intel built into my cpu [08:12] worst: ahhh, it's one of these optimus type setups [08:12] worst: is this a laptop ? [08:12] ikonia: no it's not. [08:13] worst: so there is a socket on the physical card, and a socket on the motherboard for video out ? [08:13] ikonia: Yeah. I want to plug my 2 side monitors into my motherboard [08:13] worst: so 3 monitors ? [08:13] and my main to the 7970 [08:13] yeah [08:14] worst: ok, so you'll need to configure 3 monitors, and configure your intel "card2 [08:14] " [08:14] hitsujiTMo it s not PXE problem it sys mission operating system .. [08:14] as i said, your usb is not bootable [08:14] go redo it [08:15] ikonia: would it be possible to add a new device with the busID of the onboard video, telling it to use the fglrx drivers? [08:15] worst: errrr no [08:15] worst: you'd have to add a new device and tell it to use the intel driver [08:15] worst: (as you said your other "card" was intel) [08:15] ikonia: yes, but intel onboard cards support rendering on the video card [08:15] ya ..i will [08:16] worst this is why you may lose some performance, as it depends on how well the two xorg modules co-operate in terms of moving 3d acceleration around the 3 displays [08:16] worst: yes, you can render, but that doesn't mean "tell the intel card to use the ati driver" - that just won't work [08:16] ikonia: I see, alright === Wug[Hyperspace] is now known as Wug [08:16] Alright guys I' [08:17] I'm in some deep shit [08:17] worst: tell each device to use the correct module get them working independently, then build a display config that spans all 3 [08:17] Wug: no need for that language, please stop [08:17] My packages are borken, and nothing I've tried has had any effect at all [08:17] Wug, state the issue, with many more details [08:17] dpkg reports that initramfs-tools has broken dependencies and refuses to do anything [08:17] !enter | Wug [08:17] Wug: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [08:18] Wug: pastebin the error message *verbatim* [08:18] there are a lot of details, and irc has a line length limit :| [08:18] Wug: use pastebin [08:18] lolu: gordonjcp said that already [08:18] ikonia: appreciate the info. I'll go play with this :) [08:18] gordonjcp: I'm getting to that. first up, the output of `apt-get -f install` [08:19] worst: that's how I'd approach them - take them as 1 screen each, backup the config, then make a new config to get them to span [08:19] https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6959763 [08:20] I've googled around, and nothing I've thrown at it has made dpkg budge [08:20] one more question: I have grub installed on sdc1 and in the mbr [08:20] I have the truecrypt loader installed on my windows drive which my comp boots from [08:20] again...hard disk encryption....problem. [08:21] ikonia: I have multiple drives [08:21] anyway, when I hit escape it boots into grub [08:21] but only every other boot [08:22] the other times I have to manually boot from SDC [08:22] really odd [08:22] it's as if it's turning off the boot flag [08:22] worst: is grub on the mbr of the boot disk or the mbr of sdc ? [08:23] SDC [08:23] however truecrypt loader won't load from the mbr [08:23] only from a partition [08:23] worst: where is truecrypt loader installed ? [08:24] mbr of boot drive [08:24] worst: ok, so that sounds like a problem with truecyrpt [08:24] one of many [08:24] ikonia: why would it happen every other time though? very odd [08:24] ikonia: also it will always load my USB if it's plugged in [08:25] ikonia: ubuntu it will proceed to grub every other boot, and the others say no bootable partition [08:25] worst: I'd talk to the truecrypt support guys, this sort of nonsense is why I find it just a pile of junk [08:25] worst: it's nothing to do with ubuntu - grub will always go to ubuntu, but if something is not chainloading into grub, then it's $sometihngs fault [08:26] grammar question - if my site says: The word "ubuntu" is not in the dictionary. Do i need a comma after "word"? As in: The word, "ubuntu" is not in the dictionary. ? [08:26] ikonia: Hm, alright. Only happens with ubuntu though [08:26] mouses: I would go so far as to say you need to not have a comma [08:27] worst: well it doesn't, it only happens when truecrypt trues to boot sdc [08:27] mouses: #linguistics [08:27] hitsujiTMO .. i tried with universal USB Intaller ..and it didnt help .. [08:27] any good tolls.. [08:28] try a different installer [08:28] tools?? [08:28] what os are you doing it from? [08:28] mouses: no you don't. [08:28] thanks [08:28] * Wug pokes gordonjcp [08:29] Hi #ubuntu [08:30] Greetings mowgl3y [08:30] mowgl3y: oobie doo [08:30] i have an aws ubuntu instance on which i just set local using local-gen. now my apt-get update 'security' branch fails. [08:31] guys, i have a startup script that lives in /etc/init.d which works fine.. i want it to only start and stop in runlevel 5 though [08:31] is there an easy way to do this with Ubuntu? [08:31] how to get around this issue? i am on the ap-southeast region and i set my local to en_US [08:31] joobz: runlevel 5 doesn't exist on ubuntu [08:31] oh [08:31] joobz: the whole init system is different, scripts should not be in /etc/init.d either [08:31] i am in runlevel 2 [08:32] well "N 2" [08:32] based on "runlevel" [08:32] joobz: yes, that is the "only" run level in ubuntu [08:32] i want it to run in this level only [08:32] oh [08:32] joobz: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:32] joobz: there is no other run level in real terms [08:32] ok let me describe the issue then :P there may be a better fix :P [08:32] i have a service that needs to start with a delay [08:32] hitsujiTMO: from Windwos 8 [08:32] i need the system to boot then wait like 5 seconds and start.. is that possible? [08:32] in the installer, when I choose "Guided - Use entire disk", does it create a separate /home for me? [08:32] joobz: you could just put "sleep 5" at the start of that script, or you could put the correct upstart depends. [08:33] i tried a sleep in the init script but it seemed to ignore it, might be my stuff up - but was thinking is there a more elegant way to do this [08:33] Guest7129: does it matter [08:33] reisio: yes? [08:33] Guest7129: the autopilot on the installer gives you 1 partition [08:33] Guest7129: no :) [08:33] roshan: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ has never faulted on me [08:33] OK i think the sleep was my stuff up [08:33] put it up top and it worked [08:33] let's see if this works... [08:33] reisio: maybe not to you, but to me it does matter :) [08:33] hacky way, but it'll do.. just for my media center [08:34] Guest7129: nah [08:34] joobz: at what point exactly do you need it it wait? [08:34] Wug: ah so no separate /home if i choose "use entire disk"? [08:34] joobz: whats the earliest point? [08:34] Guest7129: that's correct [08:34] reisio: care to explain why not? [08:34] Wug: thanks! [08:34] I believe none of the default options will give you more than one partition [08:34] hitsujiTMo upto now Universal is good [08:34] if you want multiple you have to set them up yourself [08:35] Guest7129: doesn't get you anything [08:35] Wug: and if i select a partition to mount as /boot/efi will it do the right thing and set it up as EFI System Partition? [08:35] Roshan: if this still doesnt work, make sure to try a different usb port, then try a different usb stick, then finally its would have to be a setting in your bios [08:35] Guest7129: that one I'm not sure about, I haven't dealt with the installer since before EFI was really a thing [08:35] doubt it [08:36] * Wug champions https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6959763 [08:36] joobz: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html > Writing Jobs > start on and stop on [08:36] don't all start shouting solutions all at once now [08:40] Wug: solutions! [08:42] I have this unpleasant suspicion that if I reboot my laptop, it won't start [08:42] does anyone have any idea at all how to troubleshoot borked packages, or should I go to bed and try again tomorrow [08:45] hello, chromium oxide and Qr's QTview?

Děkujeme. [08:50] What is the stard way on Ubuntu to stop a service? sudo /etc/init.d/ or sudo service ? [08:51] eer, I believe it's service [08:51] many init.d scripts will tell you to use service, as well [08:51] eer: I may be wrong, but I believe using init.d is the old way, and upstart is the new way [08:52] upstart? is service the upstart way? [08:52] !upstart | eer [08:52] eer: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [08:52] Wug: tnx for hint mate [08:52] lotuspsychje: I'll trade you [08:52] I have borken packages. what do? https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6959763 [08:53] Wug: whats your ubuntu version? [08:53] apt-get dist-upgrade? [08:53] chrisward: it does the same thing [08:53] my laptop won̈́'t suspend when I close the laptop lid. After closer investigation I figured out the /etc/acpi/lid.sh script dosen't run at all [08:54] most commands I can do via apt do that right now [08:54] What is the stardard way to remove a disable the start of a service in Ubuntu? I mean even after the next reboot? [08:54] lotuspsychje: 13.10 [08:55] !13.10 | Wug [08:55] Wug: Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) will be the 19th release of Ubuntu. Announcement: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1252 - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1. Release date will be 17th October 2013. [08:55] the package snafu bomb exploded when dist upgrading from an older version [08:55] Wug: we support currently version from topic mate [08:55] yeah I know, if you want I'll swing by on thursday with exactly the same question, and the answer won't be any different probably [08:56] Hi, when I ssh to my ubuntu 12.04 server my putty instantly closes if I succeffully gets logged in. If i enter wrong pass, it says so and I can enter it again. Anyone has an idea why it behaves like this? [08:56] Duzzy: what's your shell set to [08:56] /bin/bash [08:56] eer: you'd prob modify it's upstart script [08:56] and is ssh configured not to let you get to it [08:56] I don't know, how can I check that? [08:57] Wug: you dist-upgraded from what release to 13.10? [08:58] popey: precise I think [08:58] Duzzy: Can you ssh from a different machine/client? [08:58] Wug: we dont recommend that [08:58] Yes [08:58] I can [08:58] Wug: however, try "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^" (note the ^) [08:58] Duzzy: Preferably with a non putty interface =] [08:58] Wug: this may pull in the necessary bits to make it right === GingerGeek[Away] is now known as GingerGeek [08:59] popey: what difference does the ^ make ? [08:59] installs the task [08:59] exact same error [08:59] Yeah I can do that, so I just need to know what to do to make this right, I can excute commands, so thats no prob [08:59] pulls in deps [08:59] HitsujiTMO: :) [08:59] popey: why would it not pull in deps without the ^ [08:59] Wug: we don't recommend what you've done, you're flying somewhat blind because we _never_ test this scenario [08:59] well what was the problem roshan? [08:59] or have I missed some background [08:59] well, not quite exactly the same [08:59] ikonia: because without ^ you're installing a meta package which wont pull in deps [08:59] it complains about more packages [09:00] ok, switching gears [09:00] popey: no, but each package has depends, so it should filter down ? [09:00] no [09:00] try it sometime ☻ [09:00] what ? then what's the point of the meta-pacage [09:00] package [09:00] without the hat it's near useless [09:00] popey: you still contribute to kazam? [09:00] lotuspsychje: not recently [09:00] I've never had a meta-package not pull in the dependencies for the packages it's referencing [09:01] still use it though [09:01] duzzy: I recommend installing cygwin to get al alternative ssh client: and add the -v flag as you're connecting [09:01] popey: ok tnx, yeah great package! [09:01] Hi Everyone, There is a customized LiveCD which has my wanted screen resolution. Which folder sholud I copy to my system to has those settings. Please don't tell me the only way is xorg.conf.d and xorg.conf creation because they are not working. The live system also works without them as well. [09:01] en: if editing xorg.conf "doesn't work" then you're Doing It Wrong ☻ [09:02] "customized livecd" speaks volumes [09:02] en: what video card does your machine have? [09:04] popey: here's the output of dpkg --configure -a https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6960057 [09:04] popey - Five linux master agreed from the irc channel they told me how to do it trust me. [09:06] en: the answer is still to craft a good xorg.conf if the video card misbehaves, whether you believe it isn't or not is largely moot. [09:06] popey ati radeon 9600 [09:06] Wug: apt-cache policy texlive-base [09:07] popey: texlive-base: Installed: 2009-15 Candidate: 2013.20130722-1 Version table: 2013.20130722-1 0 500 http://mirrors.rit.edu/ubuntu/ saucy/main i386Packages *** 2009-15 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status [09:08] if you need it with newlines say something and ill gist it [09:09] en: I still have an old HP laptop that has this old radeon 9600 in it. That card should make any problems... It uses the open source driver... What special resolution do you need? [09:09] en: + not ;) [09:09] minimec 1366x768 [09:09] Good morning! When I made a disk image of my hdd with DD, can I compare the integrity soemhow? [09:10] over md5 hashs e.g.? [09:10] en: And a normal ubuntu live disk doesn't give you that resolution? [09:10] Schalla: dd bails if it encounters an error, so if it succeeded then it copied exactly what was on the disk [09:10] Wug: Alright. It was a 320GiB HDD; so I worried a bit :) [09:11] took 8 or 9 hours^^ [09:11] yeah its fair to worry [09:11] but I'd say if the image is the size you wanted it, then there should be no errors [09:11] if it's truncated, it might have bailed early, but it would probably have printed something [09:11] 1280x720 followed by 1920x1080 in 16:9 aspect ratio [09:12] first is too big second is too small [09:12] popey: are you still there? googling intensely maybe, or perhaps using your vast neckbeard to scan man pages? [09:13] Wug: yeah [09:13] Wug: do you use tex/lex? [09:13] Does google play work at all in ubuntu? [09:14] popey: I haven't lately. I tried removing them, but that just changes the list of packages it claims are broken [09:14] Wug: might be quicker/easier to remove all those tex packages to get you back to a consistent state [09:14] en: strange... Try to add the resolution once to xrandr. Read post #24 from this thread. Even though it is for a different kind of screen, the commands should be the same. Maybe change to 'gtf 1366 768 60.0 [09:14] hah [09:14] Ycarene: in what sense? [09:14] en: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1321200#p1321200 [09:14] I stopped trying to remove packages to make it fix itself when it wanted me to remove all of my kernels [09:14] Wug: can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list and all of the .list files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ [09:15] It's working session by session but I want it Permanent [09:16] popey: you know, I just found something in sources.lst.d that still points to precise [09:17] let me take a whack at changing that to see if it unbreaks thing [09:17] though it shouldn't I dont think, one is precise and the other is natty [09:18] this is yet another reason we don't recommend upgrades done the way you did it [09:18] I upgraded with sed because I'm a terrible person. [09:18] yep, your system is broken now [09:18] Wug: Well lsblk says 298,1GB HDD Size and Windows 7 says 298GB Filezize, so it should be fine :) [09:19] it worked on my other system [09:19] Wug: ahh, your experience of 100% success seems to have coloured your expectations [09:19] which I also pulled from precise to saucy, using the same process [09:19] Wug: at least your upgrade experience is now 50%. [09:19] packages did break, so I expected them to here [09:19] but I was able to fix them there [09:20] why not just upgrade the way that won't break everything [09:20] yeah, its a fun exercise to do if you have half a day to muck about putting it right [09:20] or wait 6 more months for 14.04 [09:20] "restore from backup" etc [09:20] popey: well, if you try, you learn [09:20] njsg: you dont need to, we already know this way is fraught with danger, but feel free ☻ [09:21] if it worked, it would be the recommended way to upgrade [09:21] njsg: byproduct is people then spout on their blogs that "ubuntu upgrades don't work" (well duh, yeah, they absolutely don't if you go off-piste) ☻ [09:21] hey, I can remove packages with dpkg [09:21] i've never had an upgrade not work, from edgy eft to precise pangolin [09:21] * popey stops chatting in the support channel. [09:21] njsg: i agree everybody trys something that goes wrong one day, to learn out of it [09:22] hello here [09:22] SupaSol: welcome what can we do for you? [09:22] lotuspsychje: I'd support doing that every day of our lives :-) [09:23] njsg: great attitude :p [09:23] thank you, nothing for the moment im juste here for reading what people say and learn few things :) [09:25] Hello! Is there anyone on right now to help with a technical question? [09:25] No, we're all on break. === Administrateur is now known as Cosmic === Cosmic is now known as CosmicCalamity [09:26] CosmicCalamity: shoot your issue mate [09:26] It's quite possible you all are ;) [09:26] well, I don't have a job on weekends, so I *am*, technically, on a break [09:27] I installed Ubuntu and get all the way through install. Make it to the log in screen and then I get no desktop....Just a pink snowstorm. I'm thinking graphics issue but no clue how to resolve it. [09:27] CosmicCalamity: Can you switch to a console with alt-f1 or ctrl-alt-f1? [09:28] Yes, but then I can type in Admin name but not able to type in password in prompt. [09:28] CosmicCalamity: what makes you think you're not able to type the password? [09:28] CosmicCalamity: on the console you don't get asterisks to cover the password, it just is blank [09:28] Nothing shows on the screen and Enter just gives me an incorrect password error. [09:28] CosmicCalamity: what version of unbuntu and what graphics card? [09:28] CosmicCalamity: Are you using the right account name? [09:29] And, you know, typing the right password [09:29] if enter gives you incorrect password, then you typed it wrong ;-) [09:29] I know that I typed the password correctly (many times over LOL) [09:29] wrong keyboard layout? [09:29] CosmicCalamity: the password is not shown. Als the cursor would not move during the password. Aslo check if you activated the CapsLock key. [09:30] I tried it with my current EU layout and asa US layout. [09:30] CosmicCalamity: type your password as the username and see if it matches what you wrote [09:31] CosmicCalamity: what is "Admin"? [09:31] Should I be using a version anterieur to 12 or 13? I did that the first time and it did match. So, not sure why it wasn't recognized. I'll try it again. [09:31] Administrateur was my default user name [09:31] also, username should be all lowercase [09:31] CosmicCalamity: you set it that way, then enter it that way [09:31] hitsujiTMO: is it converted to lower-case? [09:32] I always assumed it'd be case-sensitive [09:33] njsg: well ubuntu server gives out if you try and enter upper case chars, so i'd presume its the same for ubuntu desktop [09:34] Ok...I'm going to reinstall and try the 12.04.3. If I can get to the ctrl+alt+F1 screen and logged in. What should I do then? [09:34] reinstall is a bit of a sledgehammer [09:34] And sorry if I sound like an idiot. This is my first foray into a non-windows environment. [09:34] CosmicCalamity: its cool, we were all there once [09:34] mjsg: OK, i'm wrong: just did useradd Moo && cat /etc/passwd ... Moo is there [09:35] Perhaps it is popey but I wanted a clean slate since I was trying things this way and that and not sure what did what. [09:35] ok ☻ [09:36] Ok...need to change a diaper (not mine *giggle giggle snort*). Then I'll proceed with reinstall and see what I see. I'll be back. :) === mathew is now known as Guest25289 [09:48] if i want to install kubuntu on top of ubuntu, then installing kubuntu-desktop will install all the defaults of kubuntu desktop ? [09:48] xtriz: No, it will just install all the packages installed in kubuntu. [09:50] hi. how to (suggest) to add software to the original software repositories of ubuntu. [09:51] schnitzl: So which software are you missing? [09:51] an rts game. [09:51] I bet it has a name. [09:52] openra it is called. i am a big fan, and since there are very few rts games, this might be a nice additional feature. [09:52] bekks, then how can i get the default config like we have in kubuntu ? [09:52] installing kubuntu ? === Guest25289 is now known as mjayk [09:53] xtriz: There is nothing like "the default config file" - after starting your very first kde-based application, technically you start configuring it, because your personal configs are written, etc. [09:53] schnitzl: Well at least there are ubuntu/debian packages available on the game homepage. [09:54] xtriz: Just install kubuntu-desktop on your ubuntu, and you will bbe fine. [09:54] bekks, so installing kubuntu-full ? [09:54] minimec: thats not the task ;) [09:54] xtriz: No, just read what I just said :) [09:54] bekks, ok [09:54] bekks: any suggestions then? [09:55] schnitzl: you may submit a bug report as feature request, e.g. [09:55] schnitzl: If that isnt a valid way for feature requests, you will be told then. [09:55] schnitzl, just make a PPA [09:55] no. thats not the task bazhang [09:56] schnitzl: thats the first step after creating a feature request :) [09:56] schnitzl, far better of chance of spreading it than what you propose [09:56] the idea is to drag more players. i think this project has not the attention it deserves. + ubuntu has very few rts games listed. would be a win win [09:56] it alwready has a PPA [09:56] so let it gather momentum [09:57] I cant change my wireless card from mode : managed to monitor [09:57] NewToThis, what chipset [09:57] okay. thank you guys.

[10:18] hello? [10:18] Hi [10:18] can you help me with my wifi? [10:18] helpmewithmywifi: Compiling the driver yourself seems to be the right idea.

How do I do that? [10:24] ok yes i have seen that webpage before [10:25] how to check the kernel-headers that i shall need [10:25] jost, mac-binding!? or please details the requirement [10:25] jost, mac-binding!? or please detail the requirement [10:26] helpmewithmywifi: uname -a gives you 'your kernel'. Now check the repository for 'your kernel'. If the kernel is from an external deb repo, check that repo for the headers deb [10:27] ok [10:28] helpmewithmywifi: If 'your kernel' has 'generic' in it, install the generic headers... [10:28] it dose not [10:28] helpmewithmywifi: So you need the headers matching your kernel number exactly. [10:29] apt-get [10:29] helpmewithmywifi: whats the output of uname -r [10:29] virtuaposta: there are two routers in my network, both having internet access. The first one also runs a DHCP server. My machine should get its IP (and DNS servers etc) from that router, but use the second one as gateway. The second router has a fixed IP.

[10:41] helpmewithmywifi: /join #raspberrypi [10:41] jost: is the ubuntu machine running ubuntu server or ubuntu desktop? [10:41] jost, from client side you can use "route add default gateway_ip_here" [10:42] #raspberrypi :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services [10:42] hitsujiTMO: yes, static networking works.

[10:54] recent logs please.. [10:54] virtuaposta, fresh installation like stable setup. [10:55] IamTrying, how about fresh install with new disk, sometimes installation disks are under issues during burning process... or quickest way is to put live CD/USB and process with rescue mode [10:55] virtuaposta, http://i.stack.imgur.com/GIRKY.jpg [10:56] virtuaposta, i have system setup locally, and send to remote locations, remotely i do not have myself physically to do CD/USB stuffs.

No matter what it goes on reboot to my static restore point? [10:58] did this happened during openfire installation? [10:59] virtuaposta, NO it just happening when i boot my system. [10:59] virtuaposta, right now i can write to my disk but moment i start programming its happening [10:59] so i cant write anything to my disk after starting to programming using NetBeans or Eclipse or Gedit or even Terminal [11:00] let me check those logs again IamTrying! please wait and meanwhile I am sure somebody surely will come-up with quick answer to this... give me few minutes please [11:01] virtuaposta, OK - waiting.

[11:13] virtuaposta, fsck after reboot i ran and manually i fixed the errors, since then i am now in ubuntu, but after some time it automagically again occures [11:13] virtuaposta, could it be a GROUPS issue like fuse ?

[11:28] Is anybody else having trouble with nautilus consuming a large amount of cpu even when not in use? [11:32] me not melkor! :) but what version of ubuntu you in? [11:32] 10.04 [11:33] Sorry 12.04 [11:34] melkor, have you tried to change value of swappiness? not sure if it help but try this "sudo sysctl vm.swappiness=10" otherwise restart the system in case anything goes more wrong ;) [11:40] I have tried restarting previously. I've actually uninstalled nautilus because it is pretty much not usable for me. It does this high cpu usage when it is not in use, or just displaying the desktop. [11:41] Hi! [11:41] I was checking if this was a known issue in the ubuntu community. [11:41] melkor: no [11:42] Anyone that has installed 13.04 on a ASUS notebook? I kind of am in a sticky situation. No urgent. [11:42] melkor: keep in mind nautilus is just a file manager, it doesn't display the desktop at all [11:42] Laurie10: why don't you just explain the problem, as people who have not installed on a random ASUS notebook can probably still help you [11:43] Does x11 tunneling through SSH work with every program? [11:43] Anybody knows? [11:43] eer "every program"? [11:43] eer: every program? [11:44] Yes, basicly as I install Ubuntu LiveCD I get steady black screen. No nomodeset Works. I have Nvidia Geforce 740m [11:44] Can I run evolution which is on my server through SSH on my client netbook? [11:44] eer, yes it does except lots of including eclipse, etc. [11:44] eer: you should be able to. [11:44] eer: That should work. [11:45] Laurie10: "as you install" - please clarify, do you get to a certain point and then it dissapears, or do you never get any screen just a black screen [11:45] Do I have to configure evolution somehow? [11:45] eer: no. [11:45] eer: why don't you just explain the problem, rather than these loaded questions [11:45] I guess it will only work if both sides use KDE or both sides use Gnome, right? [11:46] !details|eer, [11:46] eer,: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [11:46] eer: why don't you just explain the problem, rather than these loaded questions [11:46] Sorry, English is not my native language. As I hit "Try Ubuntu" or "Install Ubuntu". Please note I do not have a purple background, just black and wite. The windows 8 I am using came pre installed. [11:46] Laurie10: what does Windows have to do with this ? (your English is fine by the way) [11:47] melkor, i have observed few users with this issue and the issue was actually with missing additional Nvidia drivers, try activating drivers [11:47] ikon: The UEFI that I hate... [11:47] virtuaposta: ? [11:47] Laurie10: ok, so that's nothing to do with Windows [11:48] Yes, I meant UEFI, but as Windows (8) comes pre-bundled with UEFI i meant that (sorry for the hang-up, by the way) [11:48] melkor, that was in response to your nautilus issue.. or i might missed the actual user who raise the issue.. my apologies :) [11:49] virtuaposta: yes, I have an issue with nautilus. I do not have nvidia. I have intel, and all of my 3d drivers are up to date and working... last I checked. [11:49] Does X11 forwarding only work if both sides use KDE or both sides use Gnome? [11:49] eer: no. [11:49] eer: just explain the REAL problem [11:49] I can not try it out at the moment. [11:50] ikonia, what problem? [11:50] eer: the one you keep asking about [11:50] or the query in which you are aiming these loaded questions if it's not a problem [11:50] ikonia, I am trying to clear things before I install GUIs for nothing. [11:50] I've x11 forwarded off a ubuntu server without installing gui [11:51] eer: The answer is 'no problem'. You can use ssh -X on a KDE environment and login to Gnome environment and run Evolution or whatever you want. [11:51] minimec, thx [11:53] • IRcap 8.72 • http://www.ircap.com • [11:54] that didn't look like spam or anything [11:54] minimec, and in general, just to understand this, the clients GUI will be used. The stuff coming out of the X11 tunnel is only data that the client will use to create the program's GUI? [11:55] yep, you don't even need gnome/kde on the server [11:55] just x and stuff... :D [11:55] eer: The software is exectuted 100% on the machine you login to. The Xserver only redirects the output to the machine you are sitting on. [11:56] The story goes: Once apon a time there was a man with a computer that dual booted Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04. Then his computer broke. Sad, he sent it in and got a new one, with Windows 8. It sucked so he wanted to install Ubuntu on it. The Ubuntu installation didn't work, cause' when he hit "Try Ubuntu" or "Install Ubuntu" he got a steady black screen. He thinks that it is his Nvidia Geforce [11:56] 740m's fault. He doesn't have any "Secure Boot" options in his Setup so he asks in the IRC. [11:56] chrisward, but of course I need KDE/Gnome on the server. How am I supposed to install/run Evolution there? [11:57] eer a server is not supposed to be used with a GUI [11:57] eer, the output is directed straight to the client, kde/gnome aren't required unless you're at a terminal on the server to use it [11:57] minimec, and the output in that case includes the GUI or only raw data which a GUI needs? [11:58] MonkeyDust: a server can be used just fine with a gui [11:58] eer: You need a Xserver on both machines! [11:58] Laurie10 is that your on board video card? [11:58] MonkeyDust: there is no "rules" that says a server must not have a gui, some application functions require / work better with a gui [11:58] I don't really know as this ia a notebook. I haven't opened it yet. [11:59] minimec hi. i downloaded the version of and burned an image dvd from iso. so it would be bootable. as well as i did bootable usb. non of them works. my bios is not recognizing the cd, for me to set it as boot option,. for usb, i can see it in the bios, but when i set it as bootable option it wont boot from usb...!!!! what am i doing wrong? am i supposed to press any butons when the cd or usb is booting? [11:59] kali_eskrima, did you tell your computer to boot from the USB? [12:00] cfhowlett yes i did. but it wont boot. my bios is uefi. the secure boot is disabled, as well as fast boot. and i think legacy mode is disable too. i dont jknow what is legacy mode, but i know is disabled. [12:01] the live cd wont read it cfhowlett [12:01] kali_eskrima, ok slow down here. first: did you md5sum check the iso you downloaded to verify integrity? [12:01] i meant before that i downloaded the version ubuntu 13.10 [12:02] kali_eskrima, can't help with 13.10 as it's pre-release. try #ubuntu+1 or use a supported version. [12:02] cfhowlett how do u see if is good or not? i think i have all the files [12:02] "all the files"? ISO is ONE file! [12:02] kali_eskrima: We talked yesterday right? I mean you got 12.04 working. Just boot up 13.10 the same way... [12:02] OK; final question. I am a bit slow and for me it is hard to grasp. I install a brand new no GUI Ubuntu, no KDE, no Gnome, nothing. Then I go apt-get install evolution. Then on the client which is running Kubuntu I can SSH -X to that server and run the Evolution GUI on my local machine? [12:03] ok cfhowlett i have currently 12.04 and is giving me problems. always with wifi, turned on and off. one day on and the next off. and than some other problems. so i wanted to add 12.10 or 13.10 [12:03] eer: 'sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg evolution'. I would try that. [12:03] kali_eskrima, 12.10 is supported. 13.10 hasn't been released. [12:03] eer: you'll need to make sure sshd is running on the server. [12:04] melkor, that is a given. But apt-get won't complain and ask me to install Gnome or KDE? Strange. [12:05] minimec yes we spoke the other day. my wi fi is not working now, but yesterday it did, as usually laptop does, recognizes the nearest wi fi, which is at my home. i have a router. so anyway i downloaded the 13.10 version and burned the iso (burned the image so it will become bootable) i did it with the brasero disk burner. and i also made a usb bootable. maybe i didnt i dont know. but it ain t working as it should. the 12.04 i [12:06] i also have 12.10 downloaded it wont boot [12:06] cfhowlett minimec i have uefi bios. f**kin useless [12:07] uefi bios has secure boot disabled, legacy too, and fast boot. dont know why i need legacy option tho [12:07] eer: you may want to add a desktop-environment such as ubuntu-desktop ... [12:08] kali_eskrima: Well that 'Startup Disk Creator' normally does a good job for usb Stick live images. Although I once had a USB Stick, were the usb hardware refused to wotk as a live image. [12:09] Hello :) Anyone still here from when I was on a couple of hours ago? I finally got Ubuntu to log in to the desktop! Woot :) But is there a configuration to change to make it more fluid in function? [12:09] CosmicCalamity ? what desktop enviroment? unity? [12:09] yeah minimec i might have the same problem. its kind of making me wonder if i should even use ubuntu. i was so looking forward and its not working smoothly. and being a beginner of beginners its not really nice to not work, becuase i can berely help myself around. i just need it to work smothly. not like for example wifi, one day is working the next isnt... ?!? [12:10] CosmicCalamity: What do you mean by "fluid in function" ? [12:10] eer: I have no clue what that means. sshd will not require any gui's. [12:10] hi all, nautilus file operations are kind of stuck sometimes when i copy files and folders dont auto refresh [12:10] I don't know LOL I used v13.0.4 I think that's the one. Not the 10Beta. [12:10] is there an elegant way to manage and fix this rather than let's say unplugging a usb device u r copying stuff to? [12:10] It's very slow to click and react to what I ask it to do. [12:11] minimec do you know if ubuntu has customer service in usa to call their 1800 number or something? [12:11] CosmicCalamity: install unity-tweak-tool and under 'search' disable background blur [12:11] kali_eskrima: Well that wifi problem is rather strange. Do you have both ranges 2.4 and 5GHZ? In that case I would only use 2.4 network. [12:11] Anybody can recommend a real good tutorial about how xserver and Gnome/KDE are related? [12:12] eer: The Wikipedia article on X [12:12] eer: xserver runs, desktop runs on top of it [12:12] eer: simple [12:12] minimec ok, sorry can you help me locate where is the option 2.4 and 5ghz? [12:12] should i go to my router settings? [12:12] kali_eskrima: Check that on the router. [12:13] thx will check it out. [12:13] CosmicCalamity: what specs are the machine you are running? [12:14] eer: if you installed xserver-xorg, it did a basic default configuration. That should do for a ssh -X login. [12:14] minimec and also ubunut "system settings" ...network.....its not letting me switch to "on" my wireless network. my other laptop, same ubuntu 12.10 no problem, every time localizes and finds my home wifi network. i set both laptops with the pass code and to my routerm, so they would always be able to use the wifi at home. === njin is now known as fabio_ [12:14] Good day. When I made a image of a PGP Encrypted HDD, can I access somehow the data in it, when I mount it with a vm or sth? [12:14] minimec where on the router.. .the hardware itself or the settings online webpage [12:14] Just a sec, I'm getting the unity tweak tool [12:15] kali_eskrima: Well the routers settings. You should know if you have a dual band or single band router. [12:15] anyone has any idea why the whole filesystem doesnt really work in ubuntu? empty bin doesnt empty and copying files gets stuck [12:16] minimec, thx [12:16] gebbione: come on !!! "doesn't really work" [12:16] gebbione: if you can't even explain yourself, how do you expect anyone to even consider helping you [12:16] ikonia: be nice [12:16] minimec well... i dont know and i will check now.

When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."

For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [12:18] hi everyone [12:18] hello [12:18] flakyfilibuster, greetings [12:18] cgtdk, clicking empty bin doesnt empty <- ubuntu 12.04 [12:18] gebbione, please do a 'sudo dmesg' and pastebin the last 40 lines the paste the link here [12:19] gebbione: I suspect thats because you've run something as "root" which means you dont have permission to empty the recycle bin [12:20] minimec where can i find about bands,? i use dlink router [12:21] cgtdk, clicking empty bin doesnt empty <- ubuntu 12.04 ---- http://paste.ubuntu.com/6230994/ [12:22] kali_eskrima: Mine is an Asus Router.... ;) Check you settings... Probably you only got a single band. [12:23] settings....im lookin hold on. [12:23] minimec i have channel width? is that the same? [12:24] ikonia, before the bin problem i was transfering files to the Kingston usb pen but the operation got too slow. I tried to stop the file copying fromGUI but it stuck itself when i tried not moving at all ... so i manually unplugged the usb [12:24] gebbione: that's probably caused corruption on the file system === ubuntu is now known as Guest56691 [12:27] good morning [12:27] Obi1, greetings [12:28] /help [12:28] ikonia, it is really frustrating how it copies something really fast and then it gets stuck at 99.9% for a long time === davide is now known as Guest92221 [12:28] gebbione: how big are the files you are copying ? [12:28] 738.1 of 741.5 copied <- it is showing this for the last 30 secs === OrgyOfDwarves is now known as OrgyOfStools [12:29] anyone know how to get flash to work in ubuntu 12.04? [12:29] MB [12:29] gebbione: how long are we talking to move 750mb [12:29] Guest56691: works fine here. [12:29] Hi [12:30] ikonia, it took about 20sec to get where it is now and it is stuck at the moment still at 738.1MB while we chat [12:30] Guest56691: It needs to write done the I/O cache. It may take a while. [12:30] gebbione: so either a.) your usb device is very slow and it's just finalising the copy b.) your files are corrupted and it can't read them to finish the copy [12:30] bekks, can you play pogo games with your flash? === OrgyOfStools is now known as OrgyOfToads [12:31] kali_eskrima: I am just figguring out, where the problem could be on the router side. I would use the 2.4 band with something like 'g Only' network. The N network might give you some instability with wifi connection. Also use AES WPA encryption. [12:31] exept Iptraf any other IP monitor tool for linux ? [12:32] If one installs xserver-xorg and evolution on a brand new system without Desktop environment and then starts Evolution, will Evolution run and look crappy because only xserver is installed or not run at all (only run over a tunnel to a system with a Desktop environment)? [12:32] eer: it will run as you see it on the client [12:32] ikonia, finalising for 2 min is not cool, it just finished ... how can finalisation take so long [12:32] eer: I'd suggest just actually trying this and most of your questions will be answered, [12:32] gebbione: your usb device is slow/poor [12:33] ikonia, i dont get that on mac ... writes in seconds [12:33] same usb [12:33] gebbione: what file system is on the usb [12:33] msdos [12:34] ikonia, will do, just can not because I am not at home at the moment. Just can't wait and need to know ahead of time. :) [12:34] gebbione: it's possible your device is not been detected properly and run at full speed. [12:34] eer: you're asking questions though that are quite subjective, better to just wait, try it then raise any problems you've got [12:35] ikonia, isnt this a proof that the kingston datatraveller is detected in full? http://paste.ubuntu.com/6230994/ ... how can i check if it is being detected correctly [12:35] I'm thinking of installing 13.10, should I wait till the official release on the 17th or is there no difference if I install the beta now? [12:35] Any suggestions for my issue? Quoted: [12:35] gebbione: lots of bad stuff in there http://paste.ubuntu.com/6230994/ [12:36] hello: wait for release ... or even a few weeks after ...

Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. [12:37] minimec i dont see any of the settings you are talkin about, only i chose wep or wpa encryption [12:37] hello: that is if you want to be be guaranteed a stable system [12:37] ikonia, how do i upgrade from 12.04 [12:37] " === Guest56691 is now known as newnick [12:37] gebbione: why do you want to upgrade ? === newnick is now known as TimPlaz [12:37] kali_eskrima: Definitly WPA!

What if I install the beta now and update it after the release, would it be the same thing or would I have to do clean install [12:38] oh ok i chose personal wpa2 [12:38] kali_eskrima: Your router is capable to send different wireless modes. Newer ones have b/g/n. I would set it to 'g' only. [12:38] Sorry...kids. So, I downloaded the unity tweak app...where do I find it and how do I use it?

But my reaction time is still terribly slow...info boxes, changing windows and such. Is that normal? [12:43] google chrome or chrommium? [12:43] chrome [12:43] chromium does not come with a flash player [12:43] ok [12:44] ikonia, what does .... [sdd] No Caching mode page present ... is bad for? [12:44] gebbione: it's not running caching [12:44] kali_eskrima: I would start with 'auto'. If you are not satisfied, I would start to play around with channels. It depends on how many neighbours with wifi router you have in your area. [12:44] (at a device level) [12:44] TimPlaz: you will need to get the deb from google.com/chrome and install it with: sudo dpkg -t pachage.deb [12:44] cgtdk. restricted package/extras includes , flash, java and various media codecs [12:44] gebbione: And you are having one bad sector at least.

[12:46] oh ok minimec, so u are saying that my ubuntu 12.04 is not recognizing my wifi because of the channels i have set on roter...hmmm === OrgyOfFgraders is now known as OrgyOfGgraders [12:47] cgtdk. nothing really [12:47] BluesKaj: So why are there different packages? === Kuerbiskuchen is now known as Fuchs [12:48] kali_eskrima: I just try tune the routers settings a bit, to get a more stable connection. Do some tests with these changes. That's all I can do, as you say that sometimes the wifi card is wirking, and sometimes not.

Then, it bounces to the login interface. Sometimes, the display is blurred by red lines and the mouse cursor is transparent (I have to press CTRL to retrive it). Sometimes, everything gets well. [12:50] I assume it's because a generic driver is installed instead of the one designed for my graphic card. [12:50] And maybe also because I kind of messed up the video configuration and the GNOME support long time ago, as I updated the system. [12:50] Do you have any idea how to recover that ?

[16:04] Ari-Yang: how do I do that actually [16:04] irenicus09, might be a BIOS setting [16:04] scarleo: there's no bios settin / option to enable/disable a card [16:05] irenicus09: I forget...

[19:28] FesterJester: Nowhere, since it isnt supported since April 2013 anymore. The server version still is supported. [19:28] lol [19:28] I can not stand the unity desktop and will not use it [19:28] but...he wnats to use it [19:28] I am trying to access a different computer with remote desktopp but I recieve a message saying that my desktop is only reachable over the local network, I want to access the computer via internet but since that I have a private IP and an external one, the connection is refused [19:28] FesterJester: then use Xubuntu or Lubuntu, or Ubuntu Gnome, or Kubuntu even. [19:28] [Gentoo]:I did google but i can't find a reason why it's better lets say comparing to Solaris or BSD [19:29] darkeyes: Then you have to configure portforwardings in your router.

I don't have any spare DVDs to burn 12.04 LTS though.

(specifically Youtube?) [19:43] Pop-Tart: if you have a usb you can also install from that [19:43] Pop-Tart, best to just install over with 12.04, preserving home, and skip Wubi [19:43] <[Gentoo]> RandomUsr: yes [19:44] RandomUsr: yes [19:44] RandomUsr, no, thats offtopic here [19:44] Gentoo, what was your take on it?

[19:47] Couldn't I just use Wubi to install the LTS, use Gparted to delete the Windows partition and use update-grub? [19:47] Pop-Tart: no. [19:47] or is that a bad idea? [19:47] re [19:47] baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad idea. [19:47] got any answer to my question while i was gone? [19:47] "on grub... what would grub (3,2) mean? grub starts with 0. so it would be /dev/sdd3, right? :>" [19:47] Pop-Tart: Wubi is not a real installation. [19:47] Oh, I see. [19:47] you couldn't even do it [19:48] as wubi installs Ubuntu into a filesystem inside a file inside the Windows partition [19:48] !grub | subz3r0 [19:48] subz3r0, please see my private message [19:48] or something very close to that effect [19:48] oh [19:48] no idea? any1? :> [19:48] and so in the end, if the Windows partition goes pearshaped, you wouldn't have any tools to sort that filesystem [19:49] subz3r0: what's the question? [19:49] dang [19:49] "on grub... what would grub (3,2) mean? grub starts with 0. so it would be /dev/sdd3, right? :>" [19:49] So just use 13.04 and keep it updated [19:49] I (believe) but am not certain [19:49] Pop-Tart: and for this particular reason even the creators of Wubi don't recommend it beyond demoing it to people for few weeks at max [19:49] that it would be sdc2 [19:50] hey guys I'm having issues with internet on my new ubuntu installation, I get "FATAL: module RTL8723AE not found."

If I installed 13.04 would the update manager give a notification telling me to upgrade to 13.10? The install isn't specifically for me, it's for a few-tech illiterates in my family, that's why I wanted the LTS version. [19:52] Pop-Tart: yes [19:52] worst: I don't have a router, the thing is that I want to connect another computer with remote desktop, but I have two IP external and private [19:52] Pop-Tart: yes it would, because 13.04 isn't LTS [19:52] Or would I have to do sudo do-release-upgrade [19:52] Alright, thanks [19:52] Anyways... I would recommend using the LTS all the time [19:52] hello guys,can you help me, I'm looking for a good program for ubuntu to mount algorithms, you know some? [19:52] darkeyes: You connect directly your modem? [19:53] Sorry about that, I realize I could've worded my sentences better, so sorry for any confusion. [19:53] worst: That's correct [19:53] darkeyes: then you shouldn't have to do more than allowing the program you need access through your firewall [19:54] darkeyes: you can use this to confirm if your port is properly opened [19:54] http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ [19:54] worst: which port do I check [19:54] darkeyes: that's entirely dependent on what you're planning on hosting [19:55] darkeyes: vnc defautls to 5900 so you could try that if you're doing remote desktop [19:55] worst: I am tring to use vnc, port 5900 and it says that the port is closed, the external IP is 190.56.254.197 [19:56] darkeyes: Do you happen to have a firewall of some sort runnign? [19:56] worst: well I think that no because I am new in linux [19:57] worst: when I run ifconfig I have a different IP [19:57] darkeyes: what is that IP? [19:58] worst: 10.135.244.1 [19:59] darkeyes: that is a private IP. Most modems don't give you those. It sounds like it may be what's filtering your net [19:59] darkeyes: enter the IP of your modem in a browser [20:00] worst: unable to connect [20:00] g'day all - having a bit of trouble with a raring->saucy upgrade. do-release-upgrade tells me it couldn't calculate the upgrade, and /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log has this: 2013-10-14 06:57:06,757 ERROR Dist-upgrade failed: 'The package 'unity' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.'

[20:02] worst: I heard something about port forwarding with ssh [20:02] hitsujiTMO_: ah, cheers. [20:02] darkeyes: yes, that's called a ssh tunnel [20:02] how i Setting up two SSH server ssh daemon instances [20:02] blackdog, I woould use the ubgrade manager go to software sources and set it for any upgrade it will turn off the ppa's you may have modified a bit to much and may need to back some of those ppa's with ppa-purge, just a bgvuess though. [20:02] can someone tell me if the Terminals at Ctrl + F1 through F6 have different run levels? [20:02] darkeyes: but you would still need an open port somewhere. [20:03] wilee-nilee: cheers, i'll try that. [20:03] darkeyes: either on your or the computer that you're trying to connect to [20:03] I mean Ctrl + Alt + F key [20:03] blackdog, sorry for the spelling there, does that make sense. [20:03] worst: so there is no way I can connect to a computer with that external IP [20:04] worst: Is the ISP the responsable for that? [20:04] darkeyes: I would think \there must be a way for you to open the ports, unfortionately though I'm not really sure how [20:05] worst: An static IP would give me control of that right? [20:05] RandomUsr: what exactly do you mean by runlevel? i'm not sure if you're talking about ubuntu run levels given your context [20:05] darkeyes: Not certainly. A static IP is just a set IP that doesn't change [20:06] darkeyes: the ports could still be closed the same as any dynamic IP === Dave is now known as Guest96726 [20:06] RandomUsr, Afaik they're the same [20:06] Cyaoo a tutti!! [20:06] worst: So even though I use an Static IP, I might be using and external IP to connect to the Internet [20:06] wilee-nilee: maybe you could confirm that grub legacy starts with zero? Like Grub (3,2) is /dev/sdd3? [20:07] darkeyes: Perhaps you can call your ISP just to ask if they block you or not? [20:07] worst: well I am using a modem from I phone company [20:09] darkeyes: what's the company? [20:09] hitsujiTMO: I was wondering if using say, Ctrl + Alt + Any F key would change your runlevel or can that only be accomplished at boot? [20:09] worst: Claro [20:09] I have an ubuntu server. I consistently see <5% cpu usage. I'm thinking of running more servers on this machine to improve performance of my website [20:09] would that be a good idea? [20:10] darkeyes: they don't block your port, I just looked it up [20:10] darkeyes: so the issue is local [20:10] RandomUsr, check out http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/83336/relationship-among-runlevels-and-virtual-terminals-tty [20:10] RandomUsr: ubuntu only has 1 runlevel for userspace: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runlevel#Ubuntu [20:10] worst: how did you figure that out [20:10] darkeyes: I googled their name and "port blocking" [20:11] they only block a few ports [20:12] worst: so port 5900 is blocked because in http://www.yougetsignal.com is saying that [20:12] darkeyes: yes, but it sounds liek it's being blocked by your modem or computer rather than your ISP [20:13] worst: do you know how to unblock it [20:13] Tylertwo: then could I change runlevels while the OS is running? [20:13] darkeyes: I don't really know :/ [20:13] darkeyes: sorry [20:13] !runlevels | RandomUsr [20:13] RandomUsr: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab.

[20:15] bazhang: Have you do that before [20:16] ce qualke italiana [20:16] RandomUsr, to change the runlevel is to change the state of the OS. 0 is halt(shutdown), 1 is single user mode (root tasks only run), 2 is user mode, 3 -5 are not used, 6 is reboot [20:16] Stiwy, #ubuntu-it [20:17] darkeyes, check that website [20:17] Does anyone know what I should put into xorg to use the intel vaapi drivers?

[20:35] if I recall correctly [20:35] "if I remember correctly" [20:35] yeah [20:36] recall [20:36] in the same sort: AFAIK: as far as I know [20:36] its ok if in sudoers file i set username ALL NOPASSWD /path/to/sudo ? [20:36] I think I just want to get rid of unity [20:36] Calinou: afaik is slightly sifferent [20:36] why? :P [20:36] ese, bad idea [20:36] RandomUsr: There are many options. Gnome, Xfce, etc. [20:36] yeah, xfce is great [20:36] !sudo | ese [20:36] ese: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [20:36] but only username will have the NOPASSWD DEAL [20:37] cftdk: I thought Gnome was already installed? [20:37] RandomUsr: Not Gnome shell [20:37] wilee-nilee, i dont want sudo to askme a passwd no more [20:37] the libraries are, but they hardly constitute a DE [20:37] some of them anyway, I don't know the details [20:37] ese, then use a OS that runs that way, we don't support that here. [20:38] cftdk: I don't understand? Not gnome shell? [20:38] wilee-nilee, but i love ubuntu, its the passwd deal to sudo me whats is annoying [20:38] RandomUsr: Gnome shell is the standard Gnome interface since GNOME 3 [20:39] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Shell [20:39] guess i haven't been paying decent attention [20:39] If I uninstall unity, what am I left with? [20:40] RandomUsr: there is also some kind of fallback mode that is more like the old Gnome [20:40] Gnome Shell?

[20:55] Wug, yes [20:55] in laymans terms, it's for starting programs when you boot or shutdown the computer [20:55] tasslehoff: Does it give you a login prompt or does it just not connect at all? [20:56] for new things, you should use upstart instead, though the old init.d system does still function.

[20:57] tasslehoff you'll have to hook in I'd think [20:57] Wug, its under a subdirectory.. one second ill give a pastebin of that as well. [20:57] worst: suspected so, but just wanted to check. thanks [20:58] scrub: runlevels are not something I have a memorized explanation of [20:58] tasslehoff: no problem, best of luck [20:58] Wug, http://pastebin.com/w1iJT0yu [20:58] but there are officially 6 of them [20:58] I'm trying to setup multiple monitors across my onboard intel chip and my 7970 [20:58] I configured it the best I could, but the monitor on the intel doesn't function properly if the others are there [20:58] http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=V1snGGuX [20:58] corresponding to different parts of the life cycle of the operating system session on the computer [20:59] runlevel 5 I think is "everything is started and running", and most of the things you do when you use the computer are in runlevel 5 [20:59] earlier runlevels happen as part of the boot process, and runlevel 6 happens as part of the shutdown process.

[21:02] so how does the file structure work? if programs are running somewhere between 1 and 4, where does the "home" folder kick in? it isnt a constantly running process so i assume it has nothing to do with init.d. i know in windows it starts with c:\. in linux does it start with /etc/?

I know it's not ideal, just checking in to see if wine is still the answer. [21:37] Nelluk what ide/editor do you use? [21:37] wine is never the answer [21:38] Using clean install of vanilla ubuntu 13.04 (kernel 3.8) on an Acer AO751H (Atom Z520, GMA 500, 1GB DDR2), graphical performance is abysmal; the desktop itself seems to run under 5FPS. The forums are no help, as the solutions are for 12.04 and don't seem to work. I understand the GMA500 is intrinsically flawed, but I wanted to use 13.04 on it. [21:38] ikonia: :) it's rarely a _good_ answer, but i burned a day on this a few months ago. [21:38] hitsujiTMO: right now it is Coda on the Mac but I am looking at moving to PhpStorm because of its Symfony support [21:38] blackdog: wine is never the answer [21:39] ikonia: got a better one, then? [21:39] Nelluk: unfortunately I'm not familiar with either, but most have an option to specify a build script, which you could write to auto upload everything over sftp in a single keystroke ... === xtriz_ is now known as xtriz [21:40] blackdog: use windows or a mac with itunes [21:40] Nelluk: one option is using sshfs. [21:40] hitsujiTMO: yeah PhpStorm has the ability to upload files to the server automatically, but to really take advantage of the debugging and code completion capabilities i need it to be editing a local Symfony project with php and apache configured the same was as they are on the VPS [21:40] ikonia: yeah, that's not an option. I can't afford the weight of carrying two computers just to sync a phone. [21:41] looks like it's either wine+itunes or virtualbox+windows+itunes [21:41] blackdog: I think PhpStorm does not recommend that because it doesnt like when its access to 'local' files is laggy [21:42] Nelluk: is there a reason you can't run your tests locally? [21:42] then deploy to the VPS in a more controlled way? [21:43] blackdog: well, that is one of the options i am considering, but it would mean that i'd have to update mysql and php and apache on my Mac and get all the dependencies set up so they are identical to the VPS, not sure if that is the best way to go. sandboxing it kind of makes sense to me [21:43] would connecting via VNC make sense? [21:43] Nelluk, if i were you i would wither setup a VM with running your dev environment or else run a local amp stack, and match the configs with that of your server [21:43] Nelluk: No. VNC isnt secure at all. [21:44] ok bekks good to know [21:44] hitsujiTMO: yeah OK. those are the two options I had in my head and just didnt want to start going down that path and then find out i was missing an obvious better solution [21:45] thanks [21:45] Nelluk: if you need it to be exactly the same (which is definitely a good idea), i'd recommend looking into something like ansible, chef or puppet as a way to get it set up. [21:46] wow ive never heard of any of those. checking them out [21:46] what about Vagrant? [21:46] that way you can regard the VM as disposable, because your code is in github (or wherever), and you have a recipe for building a dev env. [21:47] vagrant is a way of managing VMs - you can use ansible with vagrant. Your needs are probably not massive, and just vagrant by itself could do the trick - you'd have to be able to run some sort of script to set everything up, though. [21:47] so if you know what you have on the VPS, perhaps choose a vagrant image to match that, and just keep your setup in a shell script? depends what you're comfortable with really. [21:48] developing on a remote VPS is always going to be a bit painful, basically. [21:49] as opposed to what? just using your own system stack and pushing commits? [21:51] Okay so over in the zevenos channel there doesn't seem to be anybody active (only 2 ppl) any chance I can get help here? I am almost positive it will be an ubuntu solution. [21:52] how i can place icon for nauntilus? I have "Dropbox" folder and want place it near folders like "Downloads" or "My Documents" [21:56] What I have is a graphics issue. I would like to use two monitors, I have two graphics cards both work fine on there own but I can't seem to get them both going at once. My onboard card is Nvidia, the second card is PCI but I am not sure of the vendor. I have installed the official Nvidia drivers from their website. It is working fine. Pretty sure that I need to add something to my xorg.conf file so it will define screen 1 j [21:56] ust as it does for screen 0 though I am not sure what to add? [21:57] I'm about to give up on this, but will give it one last shot. I've gotten this laptop with 11.10 and have tried to do distribution upgrade to 12.04.3 but it ran into filesystem errors, I ran fsck and fixed 'em, but now it's stuck with Errors were encountered while processing: ...

And 10.10 is EOL [22:03] bluechaos: The best thing to do would probably be to make a backup of your /home/ directory, do a fresh install, and then copy it back [22:04] Is there any difference between the x.04 and x.10 versions apart from position in the release cycle? By this I mean, does each version focus on different things like feature introduction and then polishing of features? [22:04] can u help me to do that , i'm newbie ! [22:05] !lts | sophie_ [22:05] sophie_: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) [22:05] sophie_: LTS releases have a different focus; other releases are the same [22:06] Rory, [22:06] can u help me to do that , i'm newbie ! [22:06] Ah okay, so for example if somebody wants a system with maximum stability, it's best for them to use an LTS version [22:06] sophie_: I don't know what you mean by "stability" [22:07] I guess I mean support, not stability [22:07] bluechaos: No problem. Open a file manager and browse to the folder "/home" - copy the folder that is your username to an external drive or some other partition [22:07] sophie_: all of ubuntu's releases are stable in the sense that they only get security updates and major bug fixes once the release is made. LTS has longer support. If you don't want to upgrade every 6 months, then go with LTS [22:08] jrib, oh I see, so people do generally upgrade at least annually if they aren't using LTS? [22:08] bluechaos, If you are feeling up for it and want you can separate home to a partition, do a fresh install and use that home. In the future your upgrades will use that home if run to do so. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving. [22:08] sophie_: the non-lts releases are supported only for 9 months now [22:08] Rory, done [22:09] bluechaos: That was very quick, you must have not very many personal files or large videos etc [22:09] Rory, I just install this old version from cd ! [22:09] I don`t have any personal files inside pc [22:09] bluechaos: Why did you install such an old version? Where did you even find a download for 10.10? [22:10] becouse this I have only ! [22:10] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6233506/ [22:10] (sources.list) [22:10] bluechaos: Go download the latest LTS version (12.04) from ubuntu.com, or the latest version 13.04 [22:10] My number 1 desire is that Canonical have a change of heart and allow the launcher bar to be orientated to the bottom. [22:10] !eol | 10.10 is end of life bluechaos [22:10] 10.10 is end of life bluechaos: 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.

Then a message box pops up saying that it is scanning for hardwar. I then get a pop up saying 'Your installation CD-ROM couldn't be mounted. This probably means that the CD-ROM was not in the drive. If so can you insert it and try again. Retry mounting the CD-ROM? o [22:43] r I think i have to mount my usb stick as the cd rom but i have no idea how to do it. Can you help me please ?

See: http://pastebin.ca/2466434 [22:46] do I have to install these or wre they supposed to be present [22:47] The only place where i can use commands is by backing out and selecting the 'Execute a shell' option.

[22:51] universal access [22:51] finally got it to work [22:51] Well, I guess it's curtains forthis install. I don't see any way to fix it, (there's no CD drive and won't boot to USB).

[22:53] deepy, shrink the partitions to fit then copy paste from gaparted or clone them, I assume you have a oot loader set up figured out. [22:55] wilee-nilee: so I need to copy each partition manually? I can't just copy all that's no unused? [22:56] deepy, There are any number of ways to do this, I gave you two options, bigger to smaller is the issue as far as a straight clone is all in some apps. [22:58] deepy, Sounds like you have two OS as well you need two partitions to use them as OS's [22:59] you can't put ubuntu and chromium on the same partition [23:00] this is a live install on a usb you want to clone to a hard drive? [23:00] full installs they say [23:00] hey - afternoon [23:01] if theres nothing on the hard drive he 'could' try using dd to image the usb to the hd. then boot the hd and use gparted to resize partions [23:01] ive done that with a simple full install to a 8gb usb flash once. but it just had one partion.

[23:01] mydog2: single quotes can 'escape' patterns, or use the escape \ character [23:01] mydog2: quotes "string" [23:02] Dr_Willis, The explanation is devoid of pertinent info really, it would help to have some details [23:02] wilee-nilee: bah! then its too easy [23:02] lol, I know. ;) [23:02] hdon: Ubuntu hasn't shipped with 0.97 by default in many years, that's grub legacy. My guess is that you accidentally installed grub legacy (which is in the "grub" package). You want the grub-pc, or grub-efi* packages for grub2 (which is again what is installed by default).
