| Irrelium | I created an Ubuntu Live USB using the universal USB creator from pendrivelinux.com, and I set it to use persistence, but for some reason, the persistence isn't working. When I restart the computer, everything is deleted. I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions. Google isn't much help | 00:21 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest27844, If it is installed some find the bootrepair app working to fix this, it generates a bootinfo summary keep the url it generates. there is a thread on this app at the Ubuntu forums to post it to in these situations if the app does not fix it, or use here. | 00:21 |
| Irrelium | I also tried reformatting the drive and installing again with persistence using LiLi USB creator, with the same results | 00:21 |
| wilee-nilee | Irrelium, try unetbootin | 00:22 |
| Irrelium | wilee-nilee: I was experiencing a weird glitch with UNetBootin and wasn't able to use it | 00:22 |
| Irrelium | For some reason it wasn't detecting my USB drive | 00:23 |
| wilee-nilee | Irrelium, Yu can have a persistent partition instead as well | 00:23 |
| wilee-nilee | with a partition you can make it bas big as needed. | 00:23 |
| wilee-nilee | as* | 00:24 |
| Irrelium | Isn't that pretty much what the USB installers do? | 00:24 |
| Ponch0 | my internet worked during install, is there anyway i can boot from install cd to set up my internet card ? | 00:24 |
| wilee-nilee | Irrelium, No the casper-rw is in the install, this is another partiton. | 00:24 |
| Irrelium | Oh | 00:25 |
| Irrelium | Maybe I will try that then | 00:25 |

| Irrelium | I am having a weird problem where I create a persistent live USB with Ubuntu 13.04, but when I use it, the persistency doesn't work (everything is reset when the computer restarts). Does anybody know what could be causing that? | 01:41 |
| yeik | The issue seemed to happen when I was low on memory and tried to update. it had an issue and I figured I would reboot and try later. | 01:41 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, I disabled all extra PPA sources using the update manager. | 01:41 |
| yeik | I still get the same error | 01:42 |
| wilee-nilee | yeik, disabling does not remove what has been installed from them, if that is athe issue. | 01:42 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, the package having issues is libldap-2.4-2 | 01:43 |
| yeik | I did do a dpkg --remove -force-remove-reinstreq for that, and it led me to a loop, wine1.4 and wine1.4-common depend on each other and can't be removed | 01:43 |
| wilee-nilee | yeik, I'm not familiar with what that is or what its for, so more details to the channel might help, or looking at the ppa's, at this point this is just a assumption as to them being part of the problem. | 01:44 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, wine or libldap? | 01:45 |
| wilee-nilee | yeik, I don't use wine, so not familiar. | 01:45 |
| wilee-nilee | !info libldap-2.4-2 | 01:46 |
| ubottu | libldap-2.4-2 (source: openldap): OpenLDAP libraries. In component main, is standard. Version 2.4.31-1ubuntu2.1 (raring), package size 181 kB, installed size 504 kB | 01:46 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, wine is a windows emulator, should be in the normal repo and has not caused any problems for any of machines before. this is the only one having problems. | 01:46 |
| wilee-nilee | yeik, I know what it is I use windows for windows apps, I would suspect it is part of the wine ppa, you have it? | 01:47 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, there is no wine ppa in my sources list | 01:48 |

| wilee-nilee | yeik, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/amd64/libldap-2.4-2 I think packages have been removed and exchanged for others maybe. | 01:52 |
| wilee-nilee | yeik, Have you used the update manager at all, I wonder if you have run a partial upgrade? | 01:54 |
| yeik | it is possible. I have had strange issues with i386 and amd64 packages conflicting before. | 01:54 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, yes, i normally use the update manager, sometimes i will use cli with apt-get | 01:55 |
| wilee-nilee | yeik, This is a early 12.04 install with that kernel being there, there have been stack updates with .2 and .3 I have the raring kernels in my 12.04.3, might be part of the problem, just a guess though. | 01:57 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, i guess its possible. I could probably reinstall over it. just have to find a good copy of lts. | 01:59 |
| wilee-nilee | yeik, Most likely fixable, it is whether you want to due the time is all at least that's my view, or just install 12.04.3, and assume all will work. | 02:00 |
| yeik | wilee-nilee, I prefer fixing things when I can, finding the information sometimes can be pretty complex with the problems that I can't immediately fix. | 02:01 |

| rickb | hello, ever since i upgraded my server to 13.04 alt arrow doesn't work to switch windows in irssi.. any idea how to restore this functionality? | 02:22 |
| wilee-nilee | LiENUS, I don't think there have been any poting to use it, 3rd party stuff anyway, technically not supported here. | 02:22 |
| wilee-nilee | porting* | 02:22 |
| rickb | using byobu as well | 02:22 |
| reisio | rickb: what does it do instead? | 02:22 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: So I cannot port forward | 02:22 |
| LiENUS | wilee-nilee, well theres a web browser notification api that afaik mightytext does use... the trick is getitng it to work with unity... | 02:22 |
| LiENUS | so there wouldnt be any porting it might be a browser addon or using a specific browser however | 02:23 |
| LiENUS | hence why i asked | 02:23 |
| rickb | reisio: instead it tries to do what F3 and F4 did, switching byobu session | 02:23 |
| rickb | s | 02:23 |
| wilee-nilee | zohan, Out of the repo kernels, are not supported here | 02:23 |
| rickb | F2 and F3* | 02:23 |
| reisio | rickb: right, so byobu has changed its configuration and taken over that key combination | 02:23 |
| reisio | rickb: you'd need to reconfigure byobu/your term | 02:24 |
| rickb | reisio: ah so if i unbind it it'll probably work | 02:24 |
| reisio | rickb: maybe | 02:24 |
| rickb | let me take a look at that conf | 02:24 |
| reisio | rickb: you can also use ESC+#, or /win # as a command | 02:24 |
| reisio | or if you run irssi in a term with only a single tab, that might work | 02:24 |
| archyme | darkeyes, do you have a static or dynamic ip? | 02:24 |
| darkeyes | archyme: a dynamic | 02:24 |
| vee_ | hey guys quick question, every time i launch cinnamon, it says hardware acceleration is not available. this isa minimal install and so the intel driver is new....what should i do? | 02:25 |
| reisio | vee_: what should you do to accomplish what? | 02:25 |
| gdos | reisio: it worked. sorta. it didn't appear to link everything. | 02:25 |
| rickb | reisio: i tried that, let me kill byobu and see if what i did works | 02:25 |
| archyme | darkeyes, if you didnt want to go with what schrodingersScat recommended you could use a dynamic dns service to accomplish what you want to do | 02:26 |
| vee_ | reisio to get hardware acceleartion working. | 02:26 |
| brobriobri | hello, test | 02:26 |

| darkeyes | archyme: Allready try that but I couldn't, I was trying to use VNC server | 02:27 |
| brobriobri | Thanks | 02:27 |

| fishcooker | how to restart xserver from remote command line? | 02:28 |
| reisio | fishcooker: something like sudo service lightdm restart, I think? | 02:28 |
| archyme | darkeyes, did you port forward on your router to the machine you want to remote to? | 02:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | or sudo restart lightdm | 02:28 |
| nether | Hi there, I'm having an issue with getting i-bus to work in 13.10. Am I able to ask about that here? | 02:28 |
| fishcooker | no i don't have lightdm.. i've openbox here | 02:28 |
| sudomilk | restart after the service is the correct syntax - like apache service httpd restart | 02:28 |
| fishcooker | reisio: | 02:28 |
| wilee-nilee | !13.10 | nether | 02:28 |
| ubottu | nether: 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. | 02:28 |
| darkeyes | archyme: the thing is that I don't hace a router | 02:29 |
| nether | thanks wilee-nilee. | 02:29 |
| vee_ | tried to launch mutter, and it says it failed to load the i965 driver...hm... | 02:29 |
| darkeyes | archyme: I have an external IP and a private IP | 02:29 |
| reisio | fishcooker: do you use a DM? | 02:30 |
| fishcooker | no reisio | 02:30 |
| fishcooker | its costum box | 02:30 |
| reisio | fishcooker: how do you start X? | 02:30 |
| archyme | darkeyes, i have never not used a router so im not sure I can help you any furthur. im guessing your private ip is set by your modem and your modem cannot port forward correctly | 02:31 |
| rickb | btw removing the m-left from the fkeys.tmux config fixed it! | 02:31 |
| reisio | rickb: ah, tmux | 02:32 |
| reisio | rickb: gj | 02:32 |
| reisio | alt+# is pretty nice for irssi | 02:32 |
| reisio | but I use /win # | 02:32 |
| rickb | reisio: ya idk why they did that but commenting it fixed it all good | 02:32 |
| rickb | reisio: ya i have just used alt arrow for so many years i must have it lol | 02:32 |
| reisio | so I don't have to deal with that issue you just dealt with ever | 02:32 |
| fishcooker | startx | 02:32 |
| reisio | well, Ubuntu doesn't exactly focus on irssi users | 02:32 |
| reisio | particularly the desktop versions | 02:32 |
| rickb | yeah | 02:33 |
| reisio | fishcooker: okay, you'd just run that again | 02:33 |
| rickb | use terminal people are a dying breed | 02:33 |
| reisio | fishcooker: log out of openbox first, or killall X, then startx | 02:33 |
| reisio | rickb: I don't know :) | 02:33 |
| rickb | reisio: at least as far as how we're accomodated. | 02:33 |
| archyme | darkeyes, have you tried team viewer? | 02:33 |
| sudomilk | if you learn to write bash scripts, you can get paid a lot just for that | 02:33 |
| yeik | terminal users not really dying, people go back and forth it seems. | 02:33 |
| SchrodingersScat | You can get more done in terminal though, I'm starting to run out of tasks a human needs to do :( | 02:33 |
| darkeyes | archyme: just a questions, when you use a router, meaning that you have a physical router in your house or whatever place, does that means that the router's IP is directly connected to the internet | 02:34 |
| sudomilk | i have one that fixes all file permissions on a web server with one line | 02:34 |
| sudomilk | its beautiful | 02:34 |
| * yeik nods at sudomilk | 02:34 | |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntu is the king of gui and mint the queen, linux in general is cli orientated | 02:34 |
| yeik | sudomilk, you shouldn't have to fix any file permissions on a web server... someone had too much access. | 02:34 |
| SchrodingersScat | darkeyes: normally the router has the external IP and negotiates connections from the internal ip/lan | 02:35 |
| fishcooker | reisio: please look this http://paste.ubuntu.com/6234238/ | 02:35 |
| sudomilk | but really though, if youre using terminal, i'd suggest checking out guake - it's my favorite so far | 02:35 |
| reisio | fishcooker: what about it? | 02:35 |
| sudomilk | yeik: you have to when you are an admin for other peoples things who don't know how suPHP works. They set things to 777 and then the page 403's out until you set dirs back to 755 and files back to 644 | 02:35 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: does the router's IP changes | 02:36 |
| yeik | sudomilk, yes, but if you admin it properly, they wouldn't be able to do that right? | 02:36 |
| fishcooker | it seems there is no openbox process | 02:37 |
| fishcooker | but there is startx process | 02:37 |
| reisio | fishcooker: 'X' is the process you would want to kill | 02:37 |
| reisio | fishcooker: if you can't just log out of openbox | 02:37 |
| reisio | pgrep -l X | 02:37 |
| SchrodingersScat | darkeyes: it can, that depends on the ISP mostly. | 02:37 |
| sudomilk | yeik, thus is the price of allowing people to use jailed shell access | 02:37 |
| sudomilk | but its an easy enough fix | 02:38 |
| yeik | sudomilk, I don't admin linux boxes much, windows mostly. I see many problems with all sorts of programs and os versions from people making changes they shouldn't | 02:38 |
| sudomilk | oh man, windows/iis is a nightmare for me. you are a hardy person indeed | 02:38 |
| yeik | so, is anybody here really good with package manager, and troubleshooting issues? | 02:38 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: and what do I need to get a router, because the only thing ISP provide me is the modem | 02:38 |
| archyme | darkeyes, with a router you can use port forwarding to get to a specific port on a specific machine, something you cannot do with a modem. | 02:38 |
| SchrodingersScat | darkeyes: if you only have a modem, wouldn't all your ports be open right now? | 02:39 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: well what I donnot understand is how to redirect from the external IP to my private IP | 02:41 |
| jeffrey_f | SchrodingersScat: Most ISP's provide a router/modem. Do you mean a WIRELESS router? | 02:41 |
| joshAnderson99 | hi, any pointers as to how one might resolve a video driver problem (for ATI HD 5450)? no mint driver for card apparently, and propietary driver says "card not supported" oddly. | 02:41 |

| SchrodingersScat | darkeyes: normally with port-forwarding, but it seemed like you said that wasn't an option. | 02:42 |
| joshAnderson99 | yeah, just came from the mint channel on spotchat, but no comment there. and believe ubuntu is quite similar. but very new to linux. | 02:42 |

| joshAnderson99 | thanks ubottu, will have a look. amazing, trying all the ATI catalyst packages, and they just dont recognise the card. | 02:43 |
| daftykins | darkeyes: if you have a modem only, the computer you have connected to it would be getting the internet-facing IP address. | 02:43 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: yes because there is no way to forward to my computer, since that that external IP is used by many other user | 02:44 |
| darkeyes | daftykins: but when check my ip on whatismyip.com it seems to be an external one | 02:44 |
| econdudeawesome | howdy! Is there a command or way I can autokill a bash command after, say, 30 minutes? I'm running 30 ipython instances in parallel, and about 10% get hung (and I just want to autokill those) | 02:45 |
| SchrodingersScat | darkeyes: then you're still limited to the options of a reverse ssh tunnel, vpn, etc. | 02:45 |
| daftykins | darkeyes: what IP do you have internally? | 02:45 |
| darkeyes | daftykins: 10.135.134.118 | 02:45 |
| joshAnderson99 | do the ubuntu video drivers work on mint? | 02:46 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: so the only thing that I can do is get a router from the ISP | 02:46 |
| econdudeawesome | ah, the timeout gnu coreutil is precisely what I'm looking for | 02:47 |
| SchrodingersScat | darkeyes: that's not what I'm saying, simply adding a router to your connection wouldn't help you much, you'd be splitting your already limited connection. Unless direct access is something the ISP also offers. | 02:47 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: Ok so that's the word, direct access, | 02:48 |

| daftykins | mmm chocolate | 02:51 |
| joshAnderson99 | is mint better than lemongrass? point taken. | 02:51 |
| darkeyes | SchrodingersScat: One last thing, so I could try asking to my ISP for a direct access? | 02:51 |
| somsip | joshAnderson99: you will probably get easier support for ubuntu. I understand mint offers some different desktops that ubuntu doesn't. Other than that, try both and make your own mind up | 02:51 |
| LiENUS | joshAnderson99, chocolate makes me physically ill, though i like to eat a little from time to time, yet i've known many girls who would scarf down a whole pint of chocolate ice cream before they'd even look at vanilla | 02:51 |
| LiENUS | the best thing for you to do is try both | 02:52 |
| SchrodingersScat | darkeyes: it's worth a shot to ask if you can get a public IP with a router you can control. I don't know your isp though. otherwise, set up a vpn and it'll be like you're on your local network. | 02:52 |

| joshAnderson99 | so far the activity here, just the numbers, are ahead of those at mint chat.. but maybe can whip up some interest there. free beers maybe. | 02:52 |

| joshAnderson99 | yeah, and with virtual box it's surprisingly painless to create new installs. might do that. notice that google uses ubuntu. | 02:53 |
| reisio | joshAnderson99: you talking about mint chat on freenode? | 02:53 |

| Learn2swim13 | Anyone familiar with RTMPDUMP and scripts on linux< i have a windows script i cant seem to modify and run on linux. | 03:03 |
| reisio | Learn2swim13: might talk to #mplayer | 03:04 |
| Learn2swim13 | Is that a person or another channel? | 03:05 |
| reisio | the latter | 03:05 |
| Learn2swim13 | then how will that help me? if idk who or what your talking about | 03:05 |
| reisio | Learn2swim13: because I know what you are talking about :) | 03:05 |
| reisio | so it was smart of you to ask in my presence | 03:06 |
| Learn2swim13 | Um ok. | 03:06 |
| Learn2swim13 | i still dont see how telling me ot talk to #mplayer is helpful | 03:06 |
| EchoDev | Learn2swim13 talk to #mplayer | 03:07 |
| sudomilk | he is saying try a channel that might be of more help than typical ubuntu support | 03:07 |
| Learn2swim13 | well people use mplayer to watch rtmpdump streams, my script has nothing to do with mplayer or watching atreams through a player | 03:08 |
| reisio | Learn2swim13: if it uses rtmpdump, it has something to do with mplayer | 03:10 |
| cfhowlett | !mplayer | 03:10 |
| reisio | it might be your problem is only to do with the script itself, in which case #bash might be more approriate, but I'm sure #mplayer can work that out, too | 03:10 |
| Learn2swim13 | not really | 03:10 |
| reisio | yes really :p | 03:10 |
| Learn2swim13 | my script is for downloading multiple streams to my hardrive. has nothing to do with mplayer | 03:11 |
| reisio | Learn2swim13: if it uses rtmpdump, it has something to do with mplayer | 03:11 |

| gdos | reisio - it worked but not all links linked and the images on the webpages are only showing empty boxes, suggestions? | 03:24 |
| reisio | gdos: let's start over | 03:26 |
| reisio | gdos: you installed something? | 03:26 |
| gdos | yes. dhelp. | 03:26 |
| gdos | when run from the command line it opens up the following link which does not work: http://localhost/doc/HTML/index.html (instead the files are located in /usr/share/doc/HTML) | 03:27 |
| gdos | i'm thinking its more an issue with the dhelp installation. | 03:27 |
| gdos | i just un-installed (purged) and re-installed dhelp. same issues. | 03:28 |
| reisio | gdos: what do you run, exactly | 03:29 |
| reisio | 'dhelp'? | 03:29 |
| gdos | debian help browser | 03:30 |
| reisio | what command | 03:30 |
| gdos | to run it? dhelp. to install it? sudo apt-get install dhelp | 03:31 |
| reisio | what about file:///usr/share/doc/HTML/ ? | 03:31 |
| gdos | that's fine. i can open that manually. but when i type dhelp from the command line, opens up my default browser and attempts to load http://localhost/doc/HTML/index.html | 03:32 |
| reisio | mmm, that does sound like a bug | 03:32 |
| gdos | the description in synaptic tells me if its not found under http://localhost/doc/HTML/index.html it will be found under /usr/share/doc/HTML which is annoying. | 03:34 |
| reisio | sounds like it's a low priority, then | 03:35 |
| gdos | bummer. i thought maybe by creating symbolic links from /usr/share/doc to /var/www/dhelp might've worked. it did. sorta. | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | hmm. sounds like he needs to enable the followsymlinks then have a link in his /var/www pointing doc to /usr/share/doc ? | 03:36 |
| reisio | if he's even got apache installed and running | 03:37 |
| Dr_Willis | yep. that would be needed. | 03:37 |
| gdos | reisio: i do. | 03:37 |
| gdos | i used the following command you gave me: ln -s /usr/share/doc /var/www/something/doc | 03:38 |
| donavan01 | how can I find out if sound card with CMI8738 chipset is supportedIm thinking about buy one on ebay for 16$ but I want to make sure its supported | 03:38 |
| Dr_Willis | donavan01: google for the chipset and 'linux support' and see perhaps? personally id check on amazon or some other store that has user reviews for the same card and see if anyone mentions linux support for the card in question also. | 03:39 |
| donavan01 | thanks dr_willis ... that was going to be what I tried but I wondered if there was a database that had that sort of thing on it | 03:40 |
| Dr_Willis | gdos: im not sure you would want /var/www/somthing just /var/www/doc pointing to /usr/share/doc | 03:40 |

| Dr_Willis | cant say ive really notced a command to do that. because its very likely other packages may also depend on parts of it. if you remove stuff and some things are no longer needed 'sudo apt-get autoremove' will clean them out | 06:06 |
| kingnick42 | Abator, what was your question? | 06:06 |
| Dr_Willis | apt will tell you if theres packages tht can be auto-removed | 06:06 |
| xtriz | md70, check alsamixer whether the sound is mute or not | 06:06 |
| Abator | Dr_Willis: i am sure a lot of apps silently make connecion to their servers and some download updated regularly , that is i think a not good for my limited internet bandwidth | 06:06 |
| xtriz | Dr_Willis, simply i have to do apt-get remove name_of_software ? | 06:06 |
| xtriz | Abator, they never download automatically they just notify you, and sometime you can manage the behaviour through settings. | 06:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Abator: Hmm.. what apps? i rarely see linux aps that connect back to their home base to notify the user of updates. | 06:07 |

| Dr_Willis | I know chrysler has linux servers, and windows machines on the floor of the factories | 06:09 |
| Abator | there are many kings on Tab... thanks for asking. i see few rules when i use gufw but when i use the ufw status numbered command then i see no rule defined. look like there are 2 firewlls on my mint. i was in the impression that same list of rules will be shown both ways | 06:09 |
| tcatsunent | I'm not sure I could convince my company to switch anyways but I have read that it ultimately saves companies a lot of money as well | 06:10 |

| Dr_Willis | !firewall | 06:15 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 06:15 |

| ubottu | Abator: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 06:16 |
| Abator | wow | 06:16 |
| reisio | tcatsunent: that depends on if you want an actual alternative, or a 3rd party implementation of something Microsoft controls | 06:17 |
| reisio | the former is a reasonable pursuit, the latter is not, whether it exists or not | 06:17 |

| sujx | During ubuntu startup, can I hide the menu, and only show the background image? | 06:24 |
| reisio | sujx: which menu? | 06:24 |
| sujx | grub2 boot menu | 06:25 |
| penguinman | it should hide automatically unless you're dual booting | 06:25 |
| Dr_Willis | its best to keep the grub menu where you can see it. :) not like you see it for a long time | 06:26 |
| Dr_Willis | and you can set it to only show for a second or 2 | 06:26 |
| xmetal | or you add kernels | 06:27 |
| penguinman | or if you REALLY want to hide it you can set the timeout to 0 | 06:27 |
| reisio | why're you rebooting anyways :p | 06:27 |
| penguinman | maybe he has a laptop? | 06:27 |
| reisio | it's the 21st century | 06:27 |
| reisio | penguinman: even more of a reason to not reboot | 06:28 |

| penguinman | reisio, meh, mine still won't suspend properly. also I use full disk encryption so it's a security thing with me. | 06:28 |
| reisio | 15, sheesh | 06:28 |
| Dr_Willis | sujx: why does it really matter if you see anything at boot time? | 06:29 |
| reisio | penguinman: how is it a security thing? | 06:29 |
| Dr_Willis | its handy to have easy access to the grub menu when things go wrongly | 06:29 |
| penguinman | so someone just coming along has to enter the password to decrypt the drive as well as the login password. | 06:29 |
| reisio | penguinman: oh you mean being powered off is | 06:30 |
| Abator | Sauvin: there is debian mint that i did not download t make boootable usb | 06:30 |

| reisio | besides, serious data thieves aren't silly enough to steal hardware when they can just get the data | 06:31 |
| penguinman | sujx, you can turn it off and just get the text output | 06:31 |
| Dr_Willis | !text | sujx | 06:32 |
| ubottu | sujx: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 06:32 |
| Abator | why ubuntu is all orange color? | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Abator: it used to be all 'brownish' for a 'natural/earthy' look | 06:32 |
| penguinman | Abator, it used to be a lot more orange than it is now. Tradition I guess | 06:32 |
| sujx | thank you~~~ | 06:33 |
| Abator | yeh, old ubuntu was brown. i di dnot like orange thats why got mint but really im new to linux | 06:33 |
| cfhowlett_ | Abator, things change ... | 06:33 |
| penguinman | Abator, you can also change the theme pretty easily these days. | 06:34 |
| reisio | orange + purple = still brown | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | its trival to change the colors. :) | 06:34 |
| Abator | penguinman: i thought color had special meanings but forgot that old was brown | 06:35 |
| === Emmanuel is now known as nClaaszen | ||

| penguinman | Abator, you might want to check out gnome-look.org. a lot of good gtk themes on there. Elementary, Flat Studio, and Boje are some of my favorites. | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | jmgk: i will belive it when i see it comeing from fedex and in my little hands... | 06:36 |

| penguinman | also, does anyone in here have experience getting suspend to work on laptops with radeon cards? | 06:44 |
| Abator | im not sure but i think ubuntu is on tablets also. those tablets are available in market? | 06:44 |
| penguinman | Abator, not preinstalled, but you can put ubuntu touch on some commercially available ones | 06:45 |
| Abator | like ipad? | 06:45 |
| reisio | http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/desktop/ | 06:45 |
| reisio | you can probably find preinstalled, too | 06:45 |
| Abator | penguinman: i can install ubuntu on ipad or it will go on android based tablets only? | 06:46 |
| penguinman | Abator, i doubt you can put it on ipads since their bootloaders are locked down like fort knox, but I know you can on nexus tablets. | 06:46 |
| penguinman | Abator, probably kindles as well but don't quote me on that. | 06:46 |
| Abator | mutitasking is really nice thing to experience | 06:47 |
| reisio | Abator: most tablets, regardless of what OS comes on them, have secure boot issues | 06:47 |
| reisio | not all of them, however | 06:47 |
| reisio | ironically one of the tablets easiest to install GNU/Linux on would be Microsoft's Surface Pro | 06:47 |
| penguinman | reisio, probably could even put desktop ubuntu on an x86 tablet. I know there's a couple out there. | 06:47 |
| Abator | yes, there are certainly issues with compatibility | 06:48 |
| reisio | well, yes, desktop doesn't mean "on a desk" any more | 06:48 |
| reisio | it means "not a server or 'workstation'" | 06:48 |
| reisio | which is most situations | 06:48 |
| penguinman | meh, I still prefer netbooks to tablets anyway. I like having an actual keyboard. | 06:49 |
| Abator | ohh | 06:49 |
| reisio | you can connect a keyboard to most tablets | 06:49 |
| reisio | a lot even come with keyboards that detach | 06:49 |
| Abator | i go completely opposite way | 06:49 |
| reisio | or offer an optional keyboard | 06:49 |
| * gordonjcp has a tablet case with a rubber key Spectrum-like keyboard | 06:50 | |
| Abator | i like no specific place to sit and a flex keyboard in my pocket | 06:50 |
| penguinman | reisio, almost read that as optical keyboard. | 06:50 |
| gordonjcp | I'd like a laptop in the same sort of form factor as the 25-year-old Toshiba T1100 I use at work | 06:50 |
| gordonjcp | with a big clicky keyboard with full-size keys | 06:50 |
| Abator | :) | 06:50 |
| penguinman | i've been considering getting one of the samsung chromebooks recently. I know for a fact you can put actual linux on those. | 06:51 |
| penguinman | either that or a pi rigged to a phone docking station. | 06:52 |
| adeligen | penguinman: Those are really nice for the price | 06:52 |

| penguinman | adeligen, especially with the ssd they have installed. | 06:53 |
| Abator | i was using teamviewer on ad hoc wifi\ | 06:53 |
| Abator | skype, teamviewer like apps are risky thats why i want firewall fixed first | 06:54 |

| penguinman | Moseco, try booting into ubuntu and running update-grub | 07:01 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, you save the bootinfo summary from the boot repair? | 07:02 |
| Rory | Why does it often take a few minutes, or a reboot, for newly installed applications to become searchable in Unity's dash? [13.04] | 07:02 |
| reisio | Rory: probably only takes a logout & in :) | 07:02 |
| penguinman | Rory, it has to rebuild the cache. | 07:02 |
| reisio | you could probably just end the process of the dash and restart it | 07:03 |
| Moseco | wilee-nilee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6225189/ | 07:03 |
| pranav | i used to use foxit reader in windows, it was very efficient in terms of searching texts from even scanned documents. now, document viewer is very poor. please suggest an alternative which can assist me in this in ubuntu 12.04 ? | 07:03 |
| reisio | pranav: how's it poor? | 07:04 |
| pranav | reisio: didn't i tell already. it wont even search words from a well scanned documents. | 07:04 |
| reisio | pranav: you could use foxit via Wine if you wanted | 07:04 |
| Moseco | penguinman: what will this do exactly? | 07:04 |
| reisio | pranav: sure it will | 07:04 |
| reisio | I find words via evince all the time | 07:04 |
| pranav | yup.. it is lightweight thats it. | 07:05 |
| reisio | hrmm? | 07:05 |
| penguinman | Moseco, will search for bootable partitions and update grub accordingly | 07:07 |
| Moseco | wilee-nilee: i undid the boot-reapir after it didnt work to boot into windows (restore mbr in boot repair). Thought id add that if its needed info | 07:07 |
| Moseco | penguinman: dpes boot-reapir not do this on its own, or does it only insert itself into windows boot manager? | 07:07 |
| xtriz | i am about to buy a static ip from my service provider, should i buy serivces from no-ip, dyndns or i should get the static ip ? the cost is almost the same. | 07:08 |
| penguinman | Moseco, actually, grub doesn't do anything with the windows bootloader except chainload into it. | 07:08 |
| Moseco | penguinman: okay, thanks, ill try it | 07:08 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, I'm not real up on uefi, however you have gpt on sda and sdb but sdc where ubuntu is msdos and the bootloader is in the mbr of sdc, not sure really, whem all are gpt the ubuntu bootloader goes in a boot partition, the bios is different with these gpt released computers | 07:09 |
| reisio | xtriz: the only reason you'd need a static ip is for ssl | 07:09 |
| wilee-nilee | when+ | 07:09 |
| penguinman | Moseco, worst case you can edit grub.conf manually and point it at the windows partition. | 07:09 |
| Rory | penguinman: Is there a way to get apt to do this automatically after install? Or a reason it was decided not to do this? | 07:09 |
| xtriz | reisio, i want to run file server such that i can access it from my college. | 07:09 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, as suggested a update-grub is worth a try, but I see kernel updates in the script so it should be in the boot menu already. | 07:10 |
| reisio | xtriz: dyndns or no-ip should cover that | 07:11 |
| Moseco | wilee-nilee: Okay, ill try the update-grub and see if it works, if not ill do some googling for the problem. Thanks! | 07:11 |
| reisio | xtriz: or any free service | 07:11 |
| penguinman | Rory, the way the dash works from what I can tell is it searches for .desktop files and updates it's cache every so often. One way you can force it to recoignize it is to install from the software center or the dash itself. | 07:11 |
| Rory | penguinman: Ahh, OK I'll use Software Centre in future if that's an option. Thanks. Do you know if using software centre to install a .deb (as opposed to dpkg -i) will also update the cache? | 07:12 |
| geektech713 | ya | 07:13 |
| DzAirmaX | hey all | 07:13 |
| reisio | like I said, you can probably just log out & back in, or kill & restart the process of the dash | 07:13 |
| penguinman | i imagine it would. when I was still using unity I'd always install from the applications lens directly. | 07:13 |
| geektech713 | can install any .deb program on ubuntu is debian too | 07:13 |
| reisio | hey DzAirmaX | 07:13 |
| ikonia | geektech713: no | 07:13 |
| xtriz | reisio, ok | 07:13 |

| geektech713 | from skype and others | 07:14 |
| reisio | ikonia: well if it has no deps to speak of :p | 07:14 |
| penguinman | geektech713, most of those are also designed with ubuntu in mind. | 07:14 |
| ikonia | geektech713: there will be very sprcific ones, such as skype that are targeted across platforms, but as a general rule of thumb, "no" | 07:14 |

| ashu11 | i have to run apache server at system logon, without any user login, where can i add the command ? | 07:24 |
| Dr_Willis | !info npm | 07:24 |

| Dr_Willis | ashu11: if you add the apache2 service - it does auto start at system boot | 07:24 |
| strk | Package `npm' is not installed. ( I installed manually ) | 07:24 |
| strk | so maybe the upstream npm installer messes up with find(1) ? | 07:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ashu11: installing apache2 here does it automatically | 07:24 |
| Dr_Willis | !lamp | 07:25 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 07:25 |
| ashu11 | Dr_Willis, how to add the service, i have apache 2 installed already, but i need to run it manually after root login | 07:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ashu11: err... by default its setup to run at system boot. theres no need for any user to login | 07:25 |
| ashu11 | i mean , right not i do it manually but i want to run it automatically at system on. | 07:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ashu11: what ubuntu release are you using? | 07:26 |
| ashu11 | now** | 07:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ashu11: again. by default it should be auto starting if you installed it properly | 07:26 |

| ashu11 | okay, thanks | 07:27 |

| penguinman | Moseco, short of manually editing grub.conf, not sure | 07:33 |

| penguinman | Dr_Willis, he's having issues with dual booting with win8 | 07:34 |
| penguinman | for some reason grub isn't picking up the efi/boot partition. | 07:34 |
| * Dr_Willis runs away from windows 8. | 07:35 | |
| penguinman | afaik the boot process is identical to win 7 | 07:35 |
| kalakj | hi all | 07:35 |
| kalakj | i am having a strange problem | 07:35 |
| penguinman | except in this case there's efi happiness thrown in | 07:35 |
| kalakj | i am not able to add new user to my laptop | 07:36 |
| Moseco | Dr_Willis: I have 2 files in grub: Windows uefi bkpbootmgfw.efi and windows boot uefi loader When i try to select either it says file not found. I have used boot-repair (here is the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/6234854/ | 07:36 |

| Moseco | penguinman: i sent a message that was to dr_wills if you look for it you can see more information about my problem. exact file name/pastebin from boot-repair | 07:38 |
| kalakj | Dr_Willis: I used remastersys, i haven't modified anything | 07:38 |
| Dr_Willis | kalakj: Look in /etc/skel and prove that statement | 07:38 |
| Dr_Willis | kalakj: it seems to be seeing some sort of odd link in /etc/skel | 07:38 |
| kalakj | Dr_Willis: i looked the directory but there is no file or folder with . | 07:39 |
| kalakj | i mean a file named . | 07:39 |
| Dr_Willis | kalakj: ls -al dosent show anything? | 07:39 |
| penguinman | Moseco, yeah, was looking. think I found the issue. look on line 469. grub isn't able to read the drive. | 07:39 |
| kalakj | okay, problem solved | 07:40 |
| kalakj | uninstalled Bit-defender and deleted the whole bit-defender scanner folder | 07:40 |

| SecretFire | is there a way to get out of software rendering mode? | 07:41 |
| Moseco | penguinman: the dev/sda is the disk with windows 8.1. is there a way to get around this? | 07:41 |
| xmetal | eh? | 07:41 |
| penguinman | Moseco, not sure off the top of my head. windows isn't exactly my area of expertise. | 07:41 |
| wilee-nilee | SecretFire, you mean to a command line? | 07:42 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, I noticed that sda1 does not have a boot flag as I looked at the script again, you can put one there with gparted and see if the update-grub picks up windows. | 07:43 |
| Dr_Willis | seems odd the boot flag would vanish | 07:44 |
| sujx | Unable to boot from grub, "error: unknown command gfxmode.. how can i solve it | 07:45 |
| Moseco | wilee-nilee: im looking at gparted right now and in dev/sda1 it says under the section flag there is "boot" Is this not the same? | 07:45 |
| Dr_Willis | sujx: sounds like your grub config is goofed up? | 07:45 |
| Moseco | penguinman: Okay, thanks for the help. If you can think of something, let me know! | 07:45 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, far right column or the label? | 07:45 |
| Moseco | wilee-nilee: yes. I used boot-repair again, if you didnt see the new pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6234854/ | 07:46 |
| Moseco | wilee-nilee: was unclear, far right column for sda1 says boot | 07:46 |
| itsbalamurali | hi | 07:47 |
| reisio | hi | 07:47 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, If your sure, its just a guess on this, windows generally need a boot flag that means an active partition in windows, you can right click sda1 and make sure. | 07:47 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, I don't see the script showing it with a flag, but the script has limitations with reading gpt I believe | 07:48 |
| penguinman | Moseco, ok, here's a link to some things you can try to get it working (manual editing of grub.conf required.) it's from the archwiki so it's not super user friendly but it should at least get you pointed in the right direction: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB#With_Windows_Installed_in_UEFI-GPT_Mode | 07:49 |
| Moseco | wilee-nilee: I right clicked on sda1 and selected information, and it says in one of the rows flags: boot | 07:50 |
| wilee-nilee | Moseco, cool | 07:50 |
| Moseco | penguinman: Thanks. Worst comes to worst. ill use boot-reapri to restore the mbr and then just select linux to boot manually whne i want to use it. | 07:50 |

| auronandace | !dash | zwamkat | 08:07 |
| ubottu | zwamkat: /bin/sh links to the DASH shell in all releases since Ubuntu Edgy (6.10). Since DASH is not 100% compatible with the BASH shell, some scripts might break. You can make scripts execute using BASH by changing the first line of the script to « #! /bin/bash | 08:07 |
| Uragan | but on command xrandr i don`t have S-video line, only DIN, DVI-0 and DVI-1 | 08:08 |
| zwamkat | auronandace: But it's a php script. | 08:08 |
| auronandace | zwamkat: any reason you're not using a bash script? | 08:09 |

| flashUbun | If I install 13.10 beta now, can I just upgrade to final is if I'd installed from the final ISO? | 09:07 |
| minimec | Uragan: Ok. I would search the web to see if the available drivers for your GPU do support s-video out. It really depends on the ubuntu distribution you use. For 12.04 Precise, there is a restricted 'Catalyst' driver and the open source driver available for your card. For newer Ubuntu versions, the restricted driver for your card has been removed. | 09:08 |

| ubottu | ernesto_: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 09:09 |

| ubottu | ernesto_: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:10 |
| k1l | ernesto_: yes. or you change the grub to put that into that kernel line per default. | 09:11 |
| ernesto_ | k1l: ok, by the way, there is not gdm anymore with unity, how is the service called now? | 09:12 |
| k1l | ernesto_: lightdm | 09:13 |
| ernesto_ | k1l: and should i find that lightdm in my current runlevel to be started when booting? | 09:14 |

| mregg | Hi all :) With Ubuntu, is it possible to grant a user access to a sub-folder without granting him access to the parent folder? | 09:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | mregg, the simplest method ( not necessarily the best ) is to chmod 777 the sub folder ... but that gives everyone access to it | 09:18 |
| mregg | hitsujiTMO: no no, not good. I'm creating groups to grant access to subfolders. | 09:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | or do you mean that the user does not have access at all to the parent folder? | 09:19 |
| ashoksahoo | Is it okay to use WUBI for development env | 09:19 |
| mregg | well, the user is part of the subfolder group, but not part of the parent group | 09:19 |
| mregg | hitsujiTMO: let me explain a bit better : | 09:19 |
| k1l | ashoksahoo: wubi is just for testing purposes. it is installed into a container inside the windows filesystem. most recommend to make a native isntall on real partitions. or make a virtual install in a virtualbox | 09:20 |
| mregg | /home/mainshare is 770 root:mainshare | 09:20 |
| minimec | Uragan: Do you really need a display on that 'server install', or would an graphical access via 'ssh -X' be enough? Like that you would have an administration GUI without the need of a seperate screen. | 09:20 |
| mregg | /home/mainshare/sub1 is 770 root:sub1 | 09:20 |
| mregg | and so my user1 is member of sub1 but not mainshare | 09:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | have you tried softlinking to the sub folder? | 09:21 |
| mregg | yup | 09:21 |
| ashoksahoo | I dont want to lose my stuff on windows if the ubuntu goes wrong and grub fails | 09:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | ashoksahoo: is a virtual machine a possibility? | 09:22 |
| Rory | ashoksahoo: Just because you can't boot into windows doesn't mean your files aren't still there | 09:22 |
| hitsujiTMO | mregg: this might be the wrong way to go about it, but you could do it with an nfs share | 09:23 |
| mregg | no | 09:23 |
| k1l | ashoksahoo: even with a wubi install there is the same risk of doing some harm. so use a VM if you dont want to touch your harddrive | 09:23 |
| mregg | hitsujiTMO: I'm just trying to share a subfolder only | 09:23 |
| ashoksahoo | in wubi there is risk to ubuntu, but not to windows. | 09:23 |
| Dr_Willis | ashoksahoo: with wubi.. windows can fail and kill ubuntu | 09:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | yes you could nfs share the subfolder | 09:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | and mount it on the same machine | 09:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ashoksahoo: wubi is also being phased out. if you want a safe test place.. use virtualbox | 09:24 |
| ashoksahoo | haha.. then I will go with native thing I guess | 09:24 |
| k1l | ashoksahoo: wrong. its also a risk that windows gets corrupted. so that is no guarantee | 09:24 |

| mregg | hitsujiTMO: no, because everybody using the same computer though freenx | 09:25 |
| mregg | hitsujiTMO: in other words, there's no nfs involved | 09:25 |
| hitsujiTMO | mreg tho only other thing i can think of is store the subfolder elsewhere and softlink it in the parent | 09:27 |
| flashUbun | Hasn't flash stop being updated for Linux? Is it safer to use Chrome then? | 09:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | flashUbun: flash is difficult to get working on ubuntu, for most users installing Chrome is the easiest option | 09:29 |
| flashUbun | I always just install flash-installer and it works? | 09:30 |
| Rory | flashUbun: please run the command "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer" | 09:30 |
| flashUbun | It's fine - it works thanks. I'm justing asking now that Linux is no longer getting updates and Google have taken over, is Chrome safer to use? | 09:31 |
| wilee-nilee | flashUbun, safer from what? | 09:31 |
| Rory | flashUbun: Probably; Chrome's "pepper flash" is updated more often | 09:31 |
| bekks | Rory: That approach is outdated. It will install the last native version of flash, which is abandoned by adobe. | 09:31 |
| flashUbun | Just in general :-) | 09:31 |
| Rory | The best thing is not to use flash at all, really | 09:32 |
| Rory | I mean, it's 2013 | 09:32 |
| flashUbun | I agree but it is still required :-( | 09:32 |
| Rory | For what? | 09:32 |
| Rory | Adverts is all I can think of | 09:32 |
| bekks | flashUbun: Use Chrome and PepperFlash. | 09:32 |
| flashUbun | Certain websites. | 09:32 |
| [Gentoo] | i tried living without flash for ~2 years | 09:32 |
| [Gentoo] | its a pita | 09:32 |
| Rory | The gnash plugin doesn't suck any more | 09:32 |
| Rory | Well, not as much | 09:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | flashUbun: most site have a html5 implementation these days | 09:33 |
| flashUbun | Even sites like speedtest.net? | 09:33 |
| [Gentoo] | most stuff dont work without flash | 09:33 |
| [Gentoo] | htlm5 is good but hardly anything in the real world uses it | 09:33 |
| bekks | hitsujiTMO: Thats not true, unless yoiu are talking about YT. | 09:33 |
| flashUbun | YouTube doesn't support all videos in HTML5... yet. | 09:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | maybe thats just my experience then, | 09:34 |
| [Gentoo] | hardly any YT videos work without flash in my experience | 09:34 |
| [Gentoo] | even with the opt in htlm5 | 09:34 |
| reisio | you're confusing video formats that browsers now support with HTML5 anyways | 09:34 |
| reisio | different things | 09:34 |
| Rory | flashUbun: But in answer to your question, yeah the best way is to use Chrome. Even if you don't use it as your main browser. I wonder if there's a way to use Chrome's flash in Firefox, presumably there's a libflashplayer.so somewhere | 09:34 |
| reisio | HTML5 has new things, things that make it easier on developers | 09:34 |
| reisio | but nothing we didn't already have before | 09:34 |
| bekks | Rory: There is no libflashplayer.so anymore using PepperFlash. | 09:35 |
| flashUbun | Maybe! Isn't Chromium becoming default in 14.04 next year? | 09:35 |
| reisio | not a damned thing | 09:35 |
| bekks | flashUbun: chromium does not ship with PepperFlash. Chrome does. | 09:35 |
| reisio | Rory: why not just use ordinary Flash in Firefox | 09:35 |
| flashUbun | You're kidding? Alright. | 09:35 |
| reisio | Flash is not being developed, it doesn't matter if it gradually becomes more outdated than it was | 09:36 |
| Rory | reisio: It's pretty insecure now | 09:36 |
| Gunteere | hi! does someone have experience with apcupsd? i'm having trouble detecting a communication failure event, the daemon logs the correct status to /var/log/apcupsd.status, but does not write it to the regular logile /var/log/apcupsd.events, does not annoy the users, and does not execute the /etc/apcupsd/commfailure script... | 09:36 |
| reisio | Rory: it always was | 09:36 |
| Rory | Yes reisio but newly discovered vulnerabilities remain unpatched | 09:36 |
| flashUbun | I've been jumping from Ubuntu to Windows for the past 6/7 years but I'm finally going to give up Windows in favour of Ubuntu :-) | 09:36 |
| reisio | oh thought this was #css for a moment, lot of web discussion | 09:36 |
| Rory | reisio: It's pretty quiet | 09:36 |
| bekks | reisio: Flash is actively developed. The native implementation was abandoned by Adobe, PepperFlash is under active development. | 09:36 |
| reisio | Rory: was ever the case | 09:36 |
| reisio | flashUbun: gj | 09:37 |
| reisio | bekks: nah | 09:37 |
| flashUbun | Sorry, might be my fault we went on to Web. I *was* a web developer until recently and I tend to start these things :/ | 09:37 |
| bekks | reisio: Do you have any links of Adobe stating they cancelled development for PepperFlash? | 09:37 |
| reisio | flashUbun: just an observation, I don't mind talking about web stuff, obviously :p | 09:38 |
| flashUbun | Google is doing the development for that aren't they? | 09:38 |
| Rory | I have an actual support question: I accidentally disabled my mouse using a third-party xinput gui, but I don't understand how to re-enable it with the xinput CLI tool. It says to use "xinput enable <device>" but I'm not sure what to put for device | 09:38 |
| reisio | bekks: stating they've stopped focusing on flash, sure | 09:38 |
| bekks | flashUbun: No. Google just integrates PepperFlash into Chrome. | 09:38 |
| reisio | don't confuse flash and an api | 09:38 |
| reisio | Rory: yeah, let's see... | 09:38 |
| bekks | reisio: Stating that they cancelled native flash development, sure. Thats what I said earlier. They did to focus on PepperFlash. Thats What I said earlier. | 09:39 |

| flashUbun | It's a joint partnership with Adobe and Google. As far as I know they are still actively developing the "Pepper" and it's just 11.2 (I think) was the last Adobe Flash for linux (with 5 years of security updates) | 09:40 |

| flashUbun | Can I just ask for someone to clearify on the Beta -> Final situation. If you're on, say, 13.10 beta and you upgrade to 13.10 final, I'm guessing you'll stick on that branch and won't all of a sudden end up with14.04 Beta in the future? If I'm not mistaken Ubuntu doesn't have beta "releases" per se just updates to the branch/version. | 09:44 |
| reisio | Rory: one or the other? :p | 09:44 |
| Rory | reisio: Yeah I tried both :) | 09:44 |
| reisio | Rory: what command? | 09:44 |
| Rory | reisio: xinput set-prop 8 'Device Enabled' 1 | 09:45 |
| Rory | reisio: Also "xinput enable 8" which doesn't error | 09:45 |
| hitsujiTMO | !final | flashUbun | 09:45 |
| ubottu | flashUbun: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Saucy and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 13.10 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. | 09:45 |
| cedq_007 | Is it possible/how to set group rwx permissions from umask in octal notation? | 09:45 |
| Rory | flashUbun: To clarify: yes you are correct | 09:46 |
| flashUbun | I know that :-) I'm just wondering if you're using a beta and upgrade to a final if you'll automatically get future betas. | 09:46 |
| Rory | flashUbun: No you won't | 09:46 |
| zykotick9 | cedq_007: whatever you are doing - it's wrong. why would you want all files to be executable? | 09:46 |
| Rory | flashUbun: It's not like Arch or something with rolling branches | 09:46 |
| flashUbun | Cheers :) Reason: I can't wait to go pure-Ubuntu so I'm going to pop on 13.10 Beta today (can't wait for the 17th) | 09:46 |
| cedq_007 | zykotick9, test question | 09:46 |
| Rory | flashUbun: Grab a daily, the beta is pretty old now and you'll have a lot more updates to do | 09:46 |
| wilee-nilee | flashUbun, You choose any distro upgrade. | 09:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | cedq_007: umask 002 assigns rwxrwxr-x | 09:47 |
| flashUbun | I've always waited for the finals you see - but I'm now impatient :-P | 09:47 |
| bekks | reisio: The API is the PepperAPI, PepperFlash is a plugin using the PepperAPI. | 09:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | cedq_007: damn, wish i saw your "test question" response before i did your homework | 09:47 |
| bekks | reisio: So please dont confuse them ;) | 09:48 |
| flashUbun | Gah! My dang K90 keyboard is driving me bananas on Ubuntu. I have to have it in "standard mode" meaning the scroll lock led keeps flashing. Thanks Corsair :-/ | 09:49 |
| Rory | reisio: I unplugged and plugged my mouse and it worked (facedesk) | 09:49 |
| sepero | reisio: did we have this before html5? http://blog.artooro.com/2013/06/08/cross-platform-browser-html5-desktop-notifications/ | 09:49 |
| flashUbun | Rory, one should respect their "work" environment ;-) | 09:49 |
| cedq_007 | hitusjiTMO: I can see this with directory. Oddly, the test question asks for this on a file, which befuddles me | 09:50 |
| XATRIX | Guys, I have problems during update... I have a try reminder for updates. And it always shows the exclamation sign within a red circle. Sounds if it say i have troubles during the update check procedure. Should be done manually | 09:51 |
| XATRIX | But all of my repositories are installed correctly | 09:51 |
| XATRIX | How can i fix it ? | 09:51 |
| reisio | Rory: heh, gj | 09:51 |
| zykotick9 | XATRIX: what release? "lsb_release -sc" | 09:52 |
| k1l | XATRIX: please put into a pastebin: "sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get upgrade" | 09:52 |
| faugusztin | XATRIX: run apt-get upgrade, it will probably say "run apt-get -f install" | 09:52 |
| wilee-nilee | XATRIX, What ubuntu release is this? | 09:52 |
| reisio | sepero: there is nothing added in HTML5 that makes anything possible that wasn't already possible | 09:52 |
| yasoob | hi there everyone | 09:52 |
| yasoob | :) | 09:52 |
| reisio | yasoob: hi | 09:52 |
| XATRIX | raring | 09:52 |
| flashUbun | Hey | 09:52 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Can anyone tell me the neccesairy steps to install german locale for the sole purpose of printing a german date? | 09:52 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ubuntu 12.04 | 09:52 |
| XATRIX | k1l: yes, it updates correctly. But why does the checker fails ? | 09:53 |
| yasoob | I am a python programmer. Is there any way i can contribute ? | 09:53 |
| k1l | XATRIX: please show the output | 09:53 |
| sepero | reisio: cool. can you link me to info on how to do desktop notifications without html5? | 09:53 |
| yasoob | I mean which project should i look intp | 09:53 |
| Uragan | Dai_1987 how to replace them? | 09:53 |
| XATRIX | Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l | 09:53 |
| yasoob | into * | 09:53 |
| reisio | sepero: this thing you linked to refers to a JS API | 09:54 |
| Dai_1987 | Uragan: ? i haven't said anything for a while, refresh my memory | 09:54 |
| XATRIX | k1l: if i run apt-get update & upgrade - it will hide the icon off.. I wouldn't be able to reproduce it until the next ubuntu updates will be released | 09:54 |
| reisio | sepero: what part of that do you think requires HTML5? | 09:54 |
| yasoob | reisio: any suggestion ? | 09:54 |
| XATRIX | Everything updates, and upgrades correctly. I'm sure of. Simply have a fail icon of system-tray-auto-update-checker | 09:55 |
| XATRIX | in XFCE | 09:55 |
| sepero | Notification.requestPermission(function (perm) { | 09:55 |
| sepero | if (perm == 'granted') { | 09:55 |
| sepero | // Tell your app it's OK to send notifications | 09:55 |
| sepero | } | 09:55 |
| sepero | }); | 09:55 |
| FloodBot1 | sepero: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:55 |
| sepero | reisio: ^^ | 09:55 |
| faugusztin | reisio: it is a semantics question - desktop notifications are defined by whatwg group, which is the HTML5 guys :)... but you are righ, sure | 09:55 |
| reisio | sepero: that just uses JS to tell something else something, nothing new | 09:55 |
| reisio | faugusztin: yeah, heavy on the mantics :) | 09:56 |
| Uragan | <Dai_1987> Uragan, it looks like you need to replace $DIN with DVI_0 or something | 09:56 |
| Uragan | it`s about s-video uotput | 09:57 |
| Dai_1987 | Uragan: i meant literally type the name of your output when running that command | 09:57 |
| Dai_1987 | Uragan: DVI_0 was just an example | 09:58 |

| XATRIX | k1l: I think nothing unusual | 10:04 |
| faugusztin | eeos: iftop ? | 10:05 |
| flashUbun | Little bit of a PC support question here. In my BIOS under boot priority I have old OSes listed that are no longer installed. Any idea how to remove these? | 10:05 |
| andreiiar | eeos: htop | 10:05 |
| ihre | atop | 10:05 |

| flashUbun | Yea | 10:05 |
| faugusztin | flashUbun: efibootmgr i think | 10:06 |
| Uragan | Dai_1987 i see...try this, but no profit ( | 10:06 |

| faugusztin | flashUbun: http://askubuntu.com/questions/63610/how-do-i-remove-ubuntu-in-the-bios-boot-menu | 10:06 |
| XATRIX | k1l: nope. Only 64 | 10:06 |
| eeos | thanks faugusztin andreiiar ihre, I will look into those. | 10:06 |
| faugusztin | eeos: iftop will tell you where do you communicate, but not which process unfortunately | 10:06 |
| k1l | XATRIX: does it show any errors after you did the apt-get upgrade? | 10:07 |
| faugusztin | eeos: like it will say you are sending X kb towards server Y | 10:07 |
| XATRIX | k1l: nothing extra | 10:07 |
| XATRIX | No errors, i can proceed with upgrades | 10:07 |
| eeos | faugusztin: yes, I am tetsing it now .... mmmm .... I really need to know which process is responsible. | 10:07 |

| irctc292 | hello guys. i have a problem with installing of ubuntu on hp envy 1110et laptop | 10:16 |
| reisio | irctc292: bummer | 10:17 |
| MonkeyDust | irctc292 what kind problem, what ubuntu version? | 10:17 |
| MonkeyDust | kind of* | 10:18 |
| irctc292 | now i have just windows 8 pro on laptop but i want to install ubuntu 13.04 | 10:18 |
| reisio | how is that a problem? :) | 10:18 |
| irctc292 | i downloeaded iso and burn it to on my flash and now i am on ubuntu try version | 10:18 |
| tilerendering | hi - I do this every year, once, if at all: how do I enable read access (and nothing else) for a specific group on a file ? | 10:18 |
| MonkeyDust | irctc292 uefi may be the issue | 10:18 |
| irctc292 | when i want to click install ubuntu its ok but i cannot see any disk on t | 10:18 |
| irctc292 | yeap i am sure it all about uefi but dont know how to fix it :( | 10:19 |
| MonkeyDust | !uefi | 10:20 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 10:20 |
| irctc292 | there is just /dev/sda n screen but there is no partition list when i click change or something installation screen is just giving up with error | 10:20 |

| reisio | yeah acl is nice, especially if you want to deal with more than one group | 10:25 |
| Guillem_ | Is there any (simple) way of controlling an standard phone-line from the computer? | 10:33 |
| bekks | Guillem_: You need a modem to do so. | 10:33 |
| nibbler | well, there is modems. but maybe you are looking for tapi stuff, dont know | 10:34 |
| grimeton | Guillem_: what exactly are you trying todo? | 10:34 |
| reisio | make it dance | 10:35 |
| * grimeton dances 8/-< | 10:35 | |
| * grimeton dances 8\-< | 10:35 | |
| Guillem_ | I'm not trying to do anything :P. I am at the office and I have a phone at my side. I think it would be nice to control it from the computer (with headset conencted to the computer) | 10:35 |
| grimeton | Guillem_: depends on the phone and if it is made for that | 10:36 |
| grimeton | Guillem_: on some setups you control the phone via a link to the pbx | 10:36 |
| nibbler | Guillem_: easiest would be, if your phone was sip - you could just install a softphone and use it on your pc (networking issues to be sorted out probably) | 10:36 |
| Guillem_ | I'm just curious, because this seems to be quite straight forward but never seen about it... | 10:36 |
| reisio | it's not, really | 10:37 |
| reisio | analog<->digital interfaces rarely are | 10:37 |
| grimeton | Guillem_: if the setup is right | 10:37 |
| grimeton | Guillem_: voip phones are the best ones for things like that | 10:37 |
| grimeton | Guillem_: other phones have a serial connection to the pc | 10:37 |
| reisio | most phoneline modems are single use, too, and don't support all the "fancy" things you can do with a phone line | 10:38 |
| andry | there is still no way to get the unity bar to the bottom in >=12.04, right? | 10:39 |
| k1l | andry: right | 10:40 |
| andry | merci .. whatever, i will get used to it :P | 10:40 |
| reisio | andry: pretty sure there is | 10:40 |
| Guillem_ | OK, guys. Thank for pointing all those facts. I was puzzled, now I'm still but have some rough ideas about it. The main one is that is its easier to make the phone dance than what I pretend :) | 10:40 |
| reisio | andry: look in the comments here https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/668415 | 10:41 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 668415 in Ubuntu "Movement of Unity launcher" [Undecided,Won't fix] | 10:41 |

| ubottu | flashUbun, not supported here - use the other channel: 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. | 10:50 |
| faugusztin | flashUbun: in other words, ask it here on Thursday :P | 10:51 |
| ActionParsnip | flashUbun: or use a released ubuntu, like Precise :) | 10:51 |
| faugusztin | flashUbun: but it seems from the google that mostly it is from damaged installer medium, maybe your ISO is fine but your USB installer isn't | 10:52 |

| Ben64 | too many ubuntu derivatives :( | 11:00 |
| faugusztin | Ben64: the worst part is that most ubuntu derivates are "change logos, add one extra package to default install" :) | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | just people expect ubuntu to support all the stupid spinoffs, then they get angry when there is none | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | its stupid | 11:02 |
| Ben64 | why not instead of making a distro type thing... make it a ppa | 11:03 |

| rokka | Hello, can someone verify that 12.04 LTS alternative install .iso actually works? I have tried with 2 usb sticks and 2 different .iso images (+mac & normal): Always end up with corrupted files and installer stops | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | rokka: why would it not? | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | rokka: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? | 11:09 |
| Snake2k | rokka: Exactly tell us how teh installer stops? | 11:12 |
| Snake2k | rokka: like, what happens when you boot from your usb? | 11:13 |
| rokka | ActionParsnip: Yes the md5sum matches | 11:13 |

| rokka | Snake2k: i can get past the keyboard detection.. then it fails at [!!] Load installer components fomr CD. There was problem reading data from the CD-ROM..... | 11:15 |
| cgtdk | rokka: keyboard detection only or the whole keyboard configuration thing? | 11:16 |
| rokka | file is: Retrieving crypto-modules-3.8.0-29-generic-di.. | 11:16 |
| cgtdk | You can bypass detection by specifying your keyboard layout | 11:17 |
| rokka | detection works so why bypass | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | rokka: is this in Saucy? | 11:17 |
| cgtdk | Oh, I misread your message | 11:17 |
| cgtdk | sorry | 11:17 |
| rokka | ActionParsnip: i don't get your question | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | rokka: the package name looks new, or are you using a daily ISO? | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | rokka: seems to be from a PPA possibly too | 11:18 |
| rokka | its 12.04 LTS _alternative_ installer | 11:18 |

| foofoobar | Hi. In a bash script I call a command which outputs: 'HorizTwoFingerScroll = 1'. I want to test if the value is 1 or 2 | 12:07 |
| foofoobar | How do I do this? | 12:07 |
| Touhou11 | chegney: You might like to try XFCE, or use the Xubuntu distribution. It also has the advantage of not coming with adverts | 12:07 |
| fidel | chegney: xfce might be worth a try on older boxes | 12:07 |
| BlueGuitar | cgtdk: then what is - gnome3? | 12:08 |
| cgtdk | BlueGuitar: Gnome is a desktop environment | 12:08 |
| cgtdk | using the Gnome shell interface | 12:08 |
| MonkeyDust | foofoobar better ask in #bash | 12:08 |
| chegney | yeah, I def need to switch, does it make sense to do a reinstall with a diff ubuntu build? | 12:08 |
| cgtdk | Untiy is just an interface for Gnome | 12:08 |
| foofoobar | ok | 12:09 |
| chegney | I just installed this thing so there's not much on it or configured yet | 12:09 |
| Touhou11 | chegney: You don't need to reinstall, you can just install the XFCE desktop and then choose that at login | 12:09 |
| fidel | chegney: in case of xfce - just solve it via apt | 12:09 |
| chegney | another question, I put the thing into suspend last night and when I opened the lid this morning, the screen was all garbled and I could only reboot | 12:10 |
| chegney | driver issue? | 12:10 |
| MonkeyDust | chegney maybe you need more swap space | 12:12 |
| streulma | I have an old PC (Dual Core, 2.5ghz with 4gb ram), how can I make Ubuntu faster? Is 12.04 faster then 13.04 ? | 12:12 |
| * Touhou11 shakes his head at what is now considered old | 12:12 | |
| fidel | streulma: try to locate what eats your resources | 12:12 |
| chegney | MonkeyDust, I just ran the graphical install from the disk, not sure what that sets up for swap space | 12:12 |
| streulma | fidel: tomcat :) | 12:12 |
| MonkeyDust | Touhou11 6 months = old for the youngest generation :) | 12:13 |
| ActionParsnip | streulma: if you use a lighter desktop like LXDE it will be faster | 12:13 |
| faugusztin | streulma: define "faster". SSD usually helps any computer :) | 12:13 |
| ActionParsnip | or max your motherboards ram | 12:13 |
| faugusztin | streulma: but need for more CPU performance is usually solved by better CPU or overclocking :) | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | then you will cache lots of disk stuff rather than slow hdds | 12:14 |
| BlueGuitar | faugusztin: how much better is SSD ? | 12:14 |
| MonkeyDust | chegney what's the output of the command free <-- use pastebin to show us | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | BlueGuitar: seek times are a lot faster | 12:14 |
| faugusztin | BlueGuitar: access time of typical hard drive - 10-15ms. access time of SSD <0.1ms | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | faugusztin: its still sata, so 300Mb/s to the board ;) | 12:14 |
| BlueGuitar | ActionParsnip: faugusztin wow - I notice when doing reads/writes at full that my cpu is not at 100 so.. | 12:15 |
| faugusztin | ActionParsnip: sequential read yes, but the typical random read is not that simple :) | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | faugusztin: try a PCI-X SSD, several gb/s now that is speed | 12:16 |
| cgtdk | can't SATA 3 do 6 Gbps? | 12:16 |
| faugusztin | cgtdk: yes | 12:16 |
| faugusztin | cgtdk: still not 1GB/s+ like most PCI-E SSD | 12:16 |
| cgtdk | PCI-E is definitely faster | 12:17 |
| faugusztin | but price is in different region too :P | 12:17 |

| ionelmc | how can i download a source of a package but from another repository - do i need to add said repository ? | 12:42 |

| Roman__ | ehm.. Hi. I recently used Ubuntu Software Center (always used aptitude before) and signed in with my google account. Now I got permanent "Ubuntu — Full Account Access" in account preferences. If I revoke it, it just appears again some time later. | 12:47 |
| Roman__ | I can change, the password | 12:48 |
| flan_suse | Anyone here using an Intel HD with SNA acceleration? | 12:48 |
| Roman__ | But it's just wrong. | 12:48 |
| PLMg | hello, I have issues connecting to my ubuntu server. Iptables are "disabled" and it has a static ip. Any sugestions? | 12:49 |
| cfhowlett | !anyone|flan_suse, | 12:49 |
| ubottu | flan_suse,: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 12:49 |
| cfhowlett | ionelmc, you could wait a couple of weeks for the official release of the currently unsupported saucy ... | 12:50 |
| PLMg | My main goal is to gain ssh access to it | 12:50 |
| cfhowlett | ionelmc, for package info run apt-cache policy packagename | 12:50 |
| flan_suse | I have Intel HD graphics (System76). I am using the latest drivers from the xorg-edgers PPA, which uses SNA acceleration by default. However, if I use SNA, I get tearing. If I use UXA, I get no tearing at all. Here's the strange part. SNA *is* faster than UXA, but it suffers from tearing. So, I enable the TearFree option, and now the tearing is gone under SNA, but I get sluggish performance... | 12:51 |
| flan_suse | Is there any way to use Intel HD graphics, with SNA acceleration and no tearing, but without the performance hit? Everywhere I look, people seem to be doing just fine with SNA, and they boast how it's so much faster than UXA. | 12:51 |
| flan_suse | Any problems with tearing is "solved" by using TearFree. But in my case, this only slows things down, which is not worth it. | 12:52 |

| scruz | hi. i'm connected to a precise server which allows public-key authentication, so i'm not prompted for a password. i've installed postgresql, and it's running, but i cannot run any command as postgres with sudo - i'm prompted for a password. is there anything i can do? i'm trying to set up a web app. | 13:00 |
| Touhou11 | There's usually a release candidate before the official | 13:01 |
| philinux | Touhou11: not for a couple of cycles there hasn't | 13:01 |
| Touhou11 | philinux: That's worrying, implies less testing | 13:01 |
| philinux | it's just a milestone daily live now | 13:02 |
| hitsujiTMO | scruz as far as i know with postgres, you must be on the postrgres user to go anything in cli by default: try: sudo su postrgres | 13:02 |
| jrib | scruz: say exactly what you are running | 13:02 |
| philinux | not worrying as there's more testing now | 13:02 |
| hitsujiTMO | try: sudo su postgres even | 13:02 |
| === Neo is now known as Guest63226 | ||
| scruz | ubuntu 12.04 lts, and i can restart the postgresql service with sudo without a prompt, but once i try to do anything as the postgres user, i get the password prompt. | 13:03 |
| philinux | Touhou11: they call it an RC but it's really the daily live on the day http://qa.ubuntu.com/2013/10/09/testers-assemble-final-rc-testing-is-here/ | 13:03 |
| edinny | I configured a VPN in lucid. How can I start it from the command line? | 13:03 |
| jrib | scruz: say exactly the command that you are running... | 13:04 |
| scruz | sudo -u postgres createdb … | 13:04 |
| jrib | scruz: why do you not expect a password prompt? | 13:04 |
| scruz | postgres user account defaults to not having a password, iirc. ran same command today elsewhere, and it worked. | 13:05 |
| BluesKaj | edinny. whynot use NM? | 13:05 |
| edinny | NM? | 13:05 |
| hitsujiTMO | scruz the password is for the account you are logged in as | 13:05 |
| jrib | scruz: you're running a command with sudo. By default sudo will require you to input your user's password. | 13:05 |
| BluesKaj | network manager | 13:05 |
| streulma | does someone have the Dell Windows 7 Professional 32bit DVD without SP1 ? I lost mine | 13:05 |
| hitsujiTMO | sudo is requesting the password, not postgres | 13:06 |
| edinny | BluesKaj: can nm run from the command line? | 13:06 |
| cfhowlett | streulma, download it from digital river ... yuou | 13:06 |
| scruz | jrib: i'm using public key authentication. i don't know the password. | 13:06 |
| jrib | scruz: then you cannot sudo. | 13:06 |
| cfhowlett | streulma, you'll need that legal authorizatioon code however | 13:06 |
| jrib | scruz: ask your sysadmin to reset your password | 13:06 |
| hsnmck | Hi, I'm using lubuntu, I just installed vim-gnome and it installed other dependencies like libgnome, how can I undo what I just did. I mean, I want to remove vim-gnome with all the dependencies that were installed, apt-get remove does that? | 13:06 |
| Reacto | Is there a command I can do from the live iso to find where the grub partition is installed? | 13:06 |
| scruz | jrib: i have installed packages today without entering a password. | 13:06 |
| Reacto | Thought I removed it, but it still boots the grub rescue terminal | 13:07 |
| jrib | scruz: not possible by default. But you could setup sudo to not prompt for a password for certain commands. | 13:07 |
| bekks | Reacto: Grub is installed in the MBR of a disk or at the boot sector of a partition. Removing the package doesnt affect that. | 13:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | scruz: the server may be configured to allow you to run apt-get without a password, | 13:07 |
| Touhou11 | hsnmck: There's a command which removes "orphaned" packages, left over from removals. I forget. | 13:08 |
| BluesKaj | edinny.not sure what the path is | 13:08 |
| MrElg | q | 13:08 |
| cgtdk | autoremove | 13:08 |
| edinny | BluesKaj: the path to what? | 13:09 |
| hsnmck | Touhou11, cgtdk, apt-get remove --auto-remove ? | 13:09 |
| scruz | hitsujiTMO: okay, thanks. i've already told the sysadmin, but i googled and came here to see if i could get anything else done. | 13:09 |
| scruz | jrib: thanks | 13:10 |
| esseks | Hi! I'd like to install Ubuntu on a PC where is installed Debian Wheezy. The computer is quite old and cannot boot from a pendrive, but Grub is already at its place so: is it possible to chain load the installer on a USB key from Grub? | 13:10 |
| hitsujiTMO | hsnmck: apt-get autoremove | 13:10 |
| esseks | I have no spare CDs around... | 13:10 |
| hsnmck | hitsujiTMO, thanks | 13:10 |
| BluesKaj | edinny.path tp the NM executable , besides using a gui is much easier if you're going connect to vpn server | 13:11 |
| edinny | /usr/bin/nm | 13:11 |

| hitsujiTMO | Guest80043: sudo apt-get remove gnome && sudo apt-get autoremove | 13:32 |

| edinny | nmcli seems to be broken on Lucid | 13:37 |
| ikonia | I don't think so | 13:37 |
| ikonia | why do you think it's broken | 13:37 |
| edinny | It is not there | 13:37 |
| ikonia | errr that's "missing" not broken | 13:37 |

| Xethron | I successfully installed Ubuntu 13.10. While booting the live CD, I had to activate Proprietary drivers for my Wireless. This worked fine and I was able to run the installation with Internet access... | 13:38 |
| Pici | edinny: What release of Ubuntu are you running and is the network-manager package installed? | 13:38 |
| edinny | Lucid. It is installed | 13:39 |
| Xethron | After installation, I was once again unable to connect. I opened up "Software & Updates", went over to Additional Drivers, selected "Broadcom Corporation BCM43227 802.11b/g/n", and clicked Apply Changes | 13:39 |
| Xethron | Exactly like I did in the Live CD | 13:40 |
| Xethron | However, after that, it selects the "Do not use this device" again... | 13:40 |

| irenicus09 | hi guys | 13:41 |
| Pici | edinny: It looks like nmcli didn't exist in lucid. | 13:41 |
| irenicus09 | anyone know what the service dns_masq is? | 13:41 |
| Xethron | So, in short: I can't seem to select WiFi Proprietary drivers for Broadcom Corporation BCM43227 802.11b/g/n | 13:41 |
| irenicus09 | it seems to be listening on certain ports etc. how do I get rid of it ty | 13:41 |
| edinny | Pici: Any other way to start a VPN from my already made configuration without it? | 13:41 |
| moppy | irenicus09: perhaps this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dnsmasq | 13:42 |
| moppy | oh better: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dnsmasq | 13:42 |
| jrib | irenicus09: why do you want to get rid of it? | 13:43 |
| Pici | edinny: I'm not sure, sorry. | 13:44 |
| moppy | it appears to eb i the package "dnsmasq" | 13:44 |
| irenicus09 | jrib: I'm not sure how I'm going to benefit form it etc. besides I don't like the idea of a running service that I don't really need | 13:44 |

| BluesKaj | !dnsmasq | irenicus09 | 13:44 |

| cfhowlett | edinny, you can do that in software center settings > software sources | 13:44 |
| edinny | cfhowlett: from the command line? | 13:45 |
| BluesKaj | !info dnsmasq | 13:45 |
| === xtriz_ is now known as xtriz | ||

| cfhowlett | edinny, sudo gedit apt/sources.list if I recall correctly | 13:45 |
| edinny | I knew that. thought there was a command | 13:46 |
| DJones | edinny: cfhowlett gksudo rather than sudo though | 13:46 |
| moppy | So anyone have any idea why I might not have sound ? Everything seems to work but no audio. It works during the login screen. I assume its threfore a desktop component not working? | 13:46 |
| cfhowlett | edinny, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list IS a command. open the file, delete the references or comment them to inactive with a * prefix | 13:46 |
| cfhowlett | DJones, for gedit? OK | 13:47 |
| edinny | I renamed the file in sources.list.d | 13:47 |
| irenicus09 | BluesKaj: thanks...I guess since it's a caching proxy it's gonna speed things up right | 13:47 |
| DJones | cfhowlett: Yeah, for any graphical based apps, sudo doesn't always set the right environment varioables | 13:47 |
| DJones | !gksudo | cfhowlett | 13:47 |
| ubottu | cfhowlett: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 13:47 |
| irenicus09 | guess I'll keep it | 13:47 |
| cfhowlett | DJones, good to know. | 13:48 |
| irenicus09 | Also I noticed this other service running: gvfsd-http is that because of the package manager | 13:49 |
| irenicus09 | I mean software center | 13:49 |
| BluesKaj | irenicus09. supposedly , I've used dnsmasq in the past but never noticed much difference speedwise | 13:50 |
| irenicus09 | BluesKaj: I think on slower connections it would make a difference cos they'd be able to skip already downloaded contented from being fetched etc. | 13:50 |

| irenicus09 | jrib: how do I enable the cache-ing featur | 13:51 |
| irenicus09 | feature* | 13:51 |
| jrib | irenicus09: i don't know. Did the wiki have intsructions? | 13:51 |
| edinny | nmcli problem solved. needed to add repostitory network-manager-trunk-lucid. | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | irenicus09. since I started using NM again I haven't bothered with dnsmasq , and my connection is a plain jane adsl which is pretty slow by the latest stds | 13:53 |

| irenicus09 | BluesKaj: hmm...I guess then it doesnt make much of a difference | 13:56 |
| edinny | cfhowlett: I have been asking how to use COMMAND LINE commands. Waiting for next LTS before I upgrade | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | irenicus09. well ,not here anyway | 13:56 |
| cfhowlett | edinny, you mean ... 12.04 IS the next LTS ... | 13:56 |
| tilerendering | this is totally strange | 13:56 |
| tilerendering | I have 2 users | 13:57 |
| vega_ | Hi when I installed kde it changed my defualt login screen to kubuntu style how do I change it back to ubuntu defualt? | 13:57 |
| osubuntu | hello but how can i change system locale? | 13:57 |
| tilerendering | one is in 3 groups, the other one is in the same 3 groups PLUS the group sudo | 13:57 |
| === Snake2k_ is now known as Snake2k | ||
| tilerendering | the first one can access the tomcat directory | 13:57 |
| tilerendering | the second cant | 13:57 |
| osubuntu | do i have to export LANG and LANGUAGE? | 13:57 |
| cfhowlett | vega_, logout. click the ubuntu gear to choose a different environment. login | 13:57 |
| tilerendering | although he is in the same group as the first one, plus in the sudo group | 13:57 |
| tilerendering | any ideas ? | 13:57 |
| osubuntu | ubuntu gear turns out to be galaxy gear xD | 13:58 |
| edinny | Waiting for 14.04. | 13:58 |
| cfhowlett | edinny, cool | 13:58 |
| streulma | is there a rescue cd to recover files from ntfs ? | 13:58 |
| osubuntu | edinny, you have to wait more than 2147483647 seconds | 13:58 |
| Wiz_KeeD | guys | 13:58 |
| cfhowlett | osubuntu, no idea what that means but then I'm in Ubuntustudio/xfce | 13:59 |
| vega_ | Thanks cfh but that's not my problem. Whenever I boot up my computer the login screen is kde styled, I want it to be ubuntu styled like the original one | 13:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | How do I do /etc/init.d/apach2 restart over ssh on a remote server? | 13:59 |
| osubuntu | cfhowlett, how can I change the system locale? | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | streulma: you can use foremost | 13:59 |
| cfhowlett | streulma, just boot your ubuntu cd and rescue away | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | streulma: why do you not have a backup? | 13:59 |
| osubuntu | default is Korean but i want to change it into English | 13:59 |
| cfhowlett | osubuntu, don't know how to do that from the command line ... sorry | 13:59 |
| robotti | hello! | 13:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | anyone? | 13:59 |
| osubuntu | Command line is super convinient to geeks xD | 14:00 |
| robotti | how to set up multi-seat system with nvidia and intel gpu? | 14:00 |
| edinny | osubuntu: Give me a break. Got rid of all my RHEL 3 and 4 machines! | 14:00 |
| Snake2k | Wiz_KeeD: sudo service apache2 restart | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Wiz_KeeD: anyone what? | 14:00 |
| robotti | I am using closed source nvidia driver with nvidia gpu | 14:00 |
| Snake2k | I think that works | 14:00 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Snake2k, over ssh | 14:00 |
| Wiz_KeeD | on a remote server | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip | robotti: did you install bumblebee | 14:00 |
| Wiz_KeeD | one command | 14:00 |
| robotti | ActionParsnip: not yet | 14:01 |
| vega_ | how do I change my login screen to ubuntu defualt? | 14:01 |
| osubuntu | edinny, then you must wait another 4294967296 seconds xD | 14:01 |
| hitsujiTMO | osubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Locale look at /etc/default/locale or update-locale | 14:01 |
| robotti | ActionParsnip: bumblebee is needed to use multiseat system? | 14:01 |
| osubuntu | sudo vim /etc/default/locale ? | 14:01 |
| robotti | ActionParsnip: I want set system with two users same time | 14:01 |
| osubuntu | hitsujiTMO, tHanKs | 14:02 |
| robotti | that is able to handle two users | 14:02 |
| ActionParsnip | robotti: its needed to handle optimus | 14:02 |
| Xethron | I can't seem to select WiFi Proprietary drivers for Broadcom Corporation BCM43227 802.11b/g/n on Ubuntu 13.10. It worked in the Live CD, but doesn't work after installation | 14:02 |
| osubuntu | btw is this channel for only ubuntu servers? excluding ubuntu desktop or ubuntu touch? | 14:02 |
| Snake2k | Wiz_KeeD: connect as root@whatever, then /etc/init.d/apache2 stop, then /etc/init.d/apache2 start, I don't know how to get it done with one command | 14:02 |
| Snake2k | Wiz_KeeD: maybe use && | 14:02 |
| robotti | ActionParsnip: my computer is not laptop | 14:02 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ssh ip /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 14:03 |
| robotti | ActionParsnip: does it matter? | 14:03 |
| Snake2k | vega_: lightdm | 14:03 |
| osubuntu | robotti, is it desktop? | 14:03 |
| Wiz_KeeD | seems to work but I do not have permission by default so I would have to exclude this command from sudo, can anyone help with that? | 14:03 |
| osubuntu | Wiz KeeD, you must be in the sudoers list. | 14:03 |
| robotti | osubuntu: yes. I have intel igpu HD 3000 and nvidia gtx 460 | 14:03 |
| osubuntu | robotti, but i have laptop :P | 14:04 |
| hitsujiTMO | robotti | 14:04 |
| osubuntu | Wiz KeeD, if you're not in the sudoers list (sudo group), the incident will be reported D: | 14:04 |
| hitsujiTMO | robotti: have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiseatX | 14:04 |
| vega_ | How do I switch from lightdm to something else? | 14:04 |
| Wiz_KeeD | I am in sudoers | 14:04 |
| Wiz_KeeD | but it asks for password and for this to work in one command over ssh i would have to remove that | 14:05 |
| robotti | hitsujiTMO: should I set two X servers? | 14:05 |
| robotti | hitsujiTMO: one for intel and one for nvidia? | 14:05 |
| osubuntu | Wiz KeeD, than type sudo -s, passwd and set root's password xD | 14:05 |
| robotti | one for using nvidia closed source driver and one for intel open source driver? | 14:05 |
| osubuntu | Wiz KeeD, then you would be able to login into root and become root of a plant | 14:06 |
| k1l | osubuntu: stop that. that is no recommended in here | 14:06 |
| hitsujiTMO | robotti: that should not be required | 14:06 |
| zykotick9 | !noroot | Wiz_KeeD osubuntu | 14:06 |
| ubottu | Wiz_KeeD osubuntu: We do not support setting a root password. You're free to do it on your own machine, but please don't offer instructions on how to set a root password or ask for help with setting it. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Wiz_KeeD: you can add the command into sudoers so that a password is not needed for that command for a particular user group | 14:06 |
| osubuntu | oh i see thx zykotick9 | 14:07 |
| osubuntu | !root | 14:07 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | osubuntu: you can do it a lot sleeker than enabling root, please dont advise users how to break their OS | 14:07 |
| osubuntu | was that advice?! | 14:07 |
| osubuntu | i thought he was asking that..must be my mistake sorry D: | 14:07 |
| osubuntu | !wfm | 14:08 |
| ubottu | Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). 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. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 14:08 |
| Snake2k | vega_: install gdm, kdm, slim or mdm, whichever one you want, then do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure <new display manager>" like for configuring gdm you do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" | 14:08 |
| ActionParsnip | osubuntu: giving users commands......yes, that's advise | 14:08 |
| jasabella | is vi's commands supposed to emulate other shell utilities and vice versa or is the system set up this way? is this just a happy coincidence? | 14:08 |
| r7_ | I installed Xubuntu on BTRFS filesystem. And I have this error at startup: "sparse file not found, press any key to continue" | 14:08 |
| osubuntu | command = advice = recommand | 14:08 |
| osubuntu | so i see that commands are just advice. thanks for that | 14:08 |
| ActionParsnip | jasabella: vi's commands are pretty much standard across all distros. That's the beauty of vi | 14:08 |
| vega_ | Thank you Snake2k | 14:08 |
| Snake2k | vega_: just a heads up, Slim causes a few problems, so its best not to play around with Slim, stick with lightdm, gdm or kdm | 14:09 |
| Snake2k | vega_: No problem :) | 14:09 |
| irenicus09 | why is its that vi and vim are so different :( | 14:09 |
| Pici | irenicus09: because vim is vi improved. | 14:09 |
| jasabella | is it vi or vim taht comes with ubuntu server as standard? | 14:09 |
| jasabella | (sorry, im a newbie) | 14:09 |
| ActionParsnip | irenicus09: just choose one and use it :) | 14:09 |
| === clone1018_ is now known as clone1018 | ||
| ActionParsnip | jasabella: vi is on every linux distro | 14:10 |
| zykotick9 | irenicus09: actually then are both really vim. vim-tiny vs vim, is your "vi vs vim" question... | 14:10 |
| vega_ | Thanks for your help again Snake2k, I have one more question. What is the difference between these managers? | 14:10 |
| irenicus09 | ActionParsnip: I really like vim...but when I try to use vi like vim it kinda doesnt work that way :[ | 14:10 |
| zykotick9 | ActionParsnip: ;) vi is on every POSIX distro | 14:10 |
| jasabella | i can use some vim commands in info and man and less, that s great :) | 14:10 |
| osubuntu | !quit | 14:11 |
| osubuntu | sorry | 14:11 |
| ActionParsnip | zykotick9: blah blah :) | 14:11 |
| jasabella | like / for search and n or N to step thru them | 14:11 |
| osubuntu | it was /quit.. | 14:11 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ActionParsnip, that is exactly what I wanted to do | 14:11 |
| Snake2k | vega_: Well, honestly, just the way it looks, its all preference, I prefer lightdm (the default), some people like gdm or kdm or slim, just compare their pictures on google images and get the one you like most lol | 14:11 |
| Snake2k | vega_: And, no problem :) | 14:11 |
| vega_ | Awesome. Thank you | 14:12 |
| exalt | hello, why does ubuntu use two runlevels instead of 6 by other distros? | 14:13 |
| zykotick9 | exalt: because ubuntu is based on debian, and that's what debian does... | 14:13 |
| r7_ | Anyone installed Xubuntu/Ubuntu on BTRFS can support me? | 14:14 |
| zykotick9 | exalt: and that isn't exactly correct statement. | 14:15 |
| streulma | what is the best Linux to use for work guys ? | 14:15 |
| streulma | Ubuntu LTS or 13.04 or .10 ? | 14:16 |
| Touhou11 | r7_: BTRFS isn't stable yet, not recommended for general use | 14:16 |
| hitsujiTMO | exalt: because what the extra runlevels were intended for is obsolete in modern systems | 14:16 |
| edinny | streulma, the best linux to use, in general, is one you can get support for...preferably LOCALLY | 14:16 |
| geirha | streulma: Depends what you need. If you don't mind software being slightly old, I'd go with LTS | 14:16 |
| r7_ | Touhou11, I am testing it because my laptop doesn't have any critical files. So far it was stable in quite some distros. They main website says the current version is unlikely to change. | 14:17 |
| k1l | streulma: if you need to ask about stability use the LTS versions | 14:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | streulma: lts is recommended for a professional environment | 14:18 |
| vedic | Hey guys, I have downloaded an old svn repository. It had worked previously but now when I do ./configure , It says "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory" . I don't remember how I did it last time. Any ideas? I see there is a autogen.sh file. | 14:18 |
| r7_ | Can I resize /dev/hda1 so I can add a partition just for booting? | 14:18 |
| r7_ | sda* | 14:18 |
| vedic | There is configure.in file as well | 14:19 |
| replicant | from what i'm reading.. there is no way to enable r/w access for an hfs+ formatted drive unless you are able to get that drive onto an osx machine to disable the journaling.. correct? | 14:19 |
| Wiz_KeeD | it's wierd that if I do apache restart logged in it works without asking password but if i do from local ssh ip /etc/init.d/apache2 restart it says permission denied | 14:19 |
| geirha | vedic: autogen.sh will generate the configure script | 14:19 |
| qum_ | qum, | 14:19 |
| Touhou11 | streulma: I use Debian Stable for work purposes | 14:19 |
| vedic | geirha: It says: autogen.sh: 6: autogen.sh: aclocal: not found; autogen.sh: 7: autogen.sh: autoheader: not found; autogen.sh: 8: autogen.sh: automake: not found; autogen.sh: 9: autogen.sh: autoconf: not found | 14:20 |

| Wiz_KeeD | anyone knows why that happens? | 14:21 |
| zykotick9 | sayres: fyi, i think you mean site | 14:21 |
| r7_ | ok I had some hopes to find help here, but since I didn't I will have to reinstall Xubuntu and make a separate /boot partition for it. Thanks for those who tried. | 14:21 |
| geirha | vedic: sudo apt-get install build-essential you might need more packages. aclocal is installed by the automake package | 14:21 |
| sayres | zykotick9 : ops ,yes site | 14:21 |
| Wiz_KeeD | actually I was wrong | 14:22 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ActionParsnip, it still does not allow me to restart the server without password prompt | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Wiz_KeeD: it will, you need to add an entry in sudoers to allow the command to run without password, you can make a group and add your user to it, then log off and on. | 14:26 |

| PDvic | yes mom | 14:39 |
| bekks | Touhou11: Ouh yes. They will spy on you by sending dns answers. | 14:40 |
| PDvic | NSA is here to protect you | 14:40 |
| jasabella | Touhou11, they have a clear polcy regarding it | 14:40 |

| ActionParsnip | Touhou11: try a smaller tinfoil hat collection, ok | 14:40 |
| Touhou11 | jasabella: When the NSA makes every organization sign a NDA, any policies are presumed to be dishonest unfortunately | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Touhou11: its a dead easy IP to remember and if it made the user's system work, we have isolated the issue | 14:41 |

| ubottu | Touhou11: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 14:49 |
| jasabella | so i've done all there is in ubuntu? | 14:49 |
| kama | how to know whether grub is install to mbr? | 14:50 |
| bekks | Touhou11: Ouh, I'm off of your paranoia - first, google is driven by the NSA, now they are supporting North Korea. What next. Ignore set. | 14:50 |
| ActionParsnip | jasabella: no, its just an extra avenue of help. | 14:50 |
| jasabella | (i? still learning btw, i will repeat these steps if i ever have the same problem again!) | 14:50 |
| jasabella | oh | 14:50 |
| irenicus09 | hi guys is it possible to get openbox or some other desktop nevironments to run on ubuntu? | 14:50 |
| jasabella | ok | 14:50 |
| gordonjcp | irenicus09: yes | 14:50 |
| irenicus09 | gordonjcp: how exactly do I switch to the other one | 14:50 |
| Touhou11 | bekks: Eric Schmidt of Google visited North Korea fairly recently | 14:50 |
| irenicus09 | I mean when I login I don't see any option | 14:51 |
| irenicus09 | to select the wm or de | 14:51 |
| jasabella | thank you for your help, i appreciate it :0 | 14:51 |
| gordonjcp | irenicus09: when you install another DE you'll see a little logo beside your name at the login screen | 14:51 |
| jasabella | :) | 14:51 |
| bekks | kama: By looking at the content - or by re-installing grub to the MBR in case of doubt. | 14:51 |
| PDvic | google uses ubuntu | 14:51 |
| cgtdk | irenicus09: Yes it is very possible | 14:51 |
| irenicus09 | gordonjcp: hmm I just uninstalled unity and added gnome3 ppa and now I dont see gnome3 | 14:51 |
| irenicus09 | and when login to noral desktop everything is so fukd haha | 14:52 |
| jasabella | i'm finding it dizzying to keep track of all the various conf files around the place | 14:52 |
| cgtdk | irenicus09: did you just add the PPA or did you install it? | 14:52 |
| bekks | PDvic: So Ubuntu supports North Korea. </ot> | 14:52 |
| BluesKaj | Touhou11. and the chinese have a secret base on the dark side ofd the moon ,from which they'll eventually rule the earth | 14:52 |
| irenicus09 | ppa | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | irenicus09: openbox isnt a desktop environment | 14:52 |
| irenicus09 | ActionParsnip: I'm aware of that bro haha | 14:52 |
| cgtdk | irenicus09: You have to install the software from the PPA to get it. It's not enough just to add the PPA. | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | irenicus09: if you install openbox, you can select the session in Lightdm | 14:52 |
| irenicus09 | cgtdk: already did | 14:52 |
| cgtdk | You're using lightdm, right? | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | irenicus09: or install lxde and use that lxde desktop with openbox wm | 14:53 |
| irenicus09 | cgtdk: ya | 14:53 |
| PDvic | north korea are NSA lovers | 14:53 |
| PDvic | or its the other way around | 14:53 |
| PDvic | imagine if hitler had the internet | 14:53 |
| auronandace | don't people get kicked for persisting in off-topic chat in here anymore? | 14:53 |
| ActionParsnip | auronandace: apparently not | 14:54 |
| irenicus09 | ActionParsnip: is it possible to just install openbox and get on it without installing lxde? | 14:54 |
| auronandace | Pici: thanks | 14:54 |
| cgtdk | irenicus09: Yes | 14:54 |
| PDvic | you dont like the truth | 14:54 |
| Pici | !guidelines > PDvic | 14:54 |
| ubottu | PDvic, please see my private message | 14:54 |
| ActionParsnip | irenicus09: sure, just install openbox and you should get it as an option in the login screen | 14:54 |
| Pici | PDvic: knock it off, this is a support channel. | 14:54 |
| irenicus09 | cgtdk: ok giving it a try | 14:54 |
| === gary is now known as Guest96277 | ||
| ActionParsnip | irenicus09: you can always make your own session file which will be selectable at login to just run openbox | 14:54 |
| PDvic | some one mentioned north korea? | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip | PDvic: its offtopic as it is not support related | 14:56 |

| daninoz | hi guys, is 12.04 with a kernel update better than 13.10 ? | 15:04 |
| PDvic | thats a matter of taste | 15:04 |
| auronandace | daninoz: qualify better | 15:05 |
| PDvic | hahaha | 15:05 |
| ActionParsnip | daninoz: 12.04 is LTS, so supported til April 2017. Saucy is considerably shorter | 15:05 |
| daninoz | auronandace: more stable | 15:05 |
| ActionParsnip | daninoz: 12.04 is the LTS release, so will be more stable | 15:05 |
| daninoz | ActionParsnip: even with a kernel update? | 15:06 |
| ActionParsnip | daninoz: yes | 15:06 |
| PDvic | 12.04 is rock 13.10 is paper | 15:06 |
| ActionParsnip | daninoz: the LTS aims to be as solid as possible | 15:06 |
| zohan | the kernel 3.11.5 released today | 15:06 |
| PDvic | im excited | 15:06 |
| === ori_ is now known as beric | ||

| ActionParsnip | zohan: saucy has 3.11.0 | 15:07 |
| daninoz | ActionParsnip: ok, great. | 15:07 |
| chegney | is it a complete reinstall when 13 becomes lts? | 15:08 |
| auronandace | chegney: there is no 13, the next lts is 14.04 | 15:08 |
| PDvic | isnt the ubuntu orange the same exact tone as the prison uniforms? | 15:08 |
| ActionParsnip | chegney: 13.04 and 13.10 will never be LTS | 15:09 |
| chegney | okay the next lts release what is the upgrade process from 12.04 lts | 15:09 |
| auronandace | daninoz: if you are using a kernel from outside the official repos then we can't support you (it will be less stable) | 15:09 |
| auronandace | chegney: you can upgrade directly from lts to lts | 15:10 |
| rasper | bonjour, quelqu'un peux m'aider sur un problème hostAP, => l'AP est bien visible mais impossible de s'y connecter (ni en WPA ni sans securité) | 15:10 |
| chegney | so an apt-get upgrade or something like that? | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | chegney: you can upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 directly, it is the next release | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !upgrade | chegney | 15:11 |

| SuperLag | if you're downloading a package that requires you to accept a license agreement to install it, is there any way to automate that, so you can put it in a script and not have it either break the script or hold everything up? The package in question is ttf-mscorefonts-installer | 15:13 |

| erle- | why is ubuntu so slow in virtual box (on ubuntu)? | 15:20 |
| erle- | it was fine years ago | 15:20 |
| erle- | but since a year or two it is just slow | 15:20 |
| erle- | on the same machines | 15:20 |
| cgtdk | perhaps because of Unity | 15:20 |
| fanandy_ | he | 15:20 |
| erle- | cgtdk, i dont use unity | 15:21 |
| cgtdk | What then? | 15:21 |
| erle- | cgtdk, same with old ubuntu versions with gnome 2 classic | 15:21 |
| cgtdk | I see | 15:21 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: compiz probably chewing the system down. Try LXDE or XFCE instead | 15:22 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: if you use Precise, use Unity2D and it will also be ok | 15:23 |
| OerHeks | erle-, maybe your videocard is aging, ati 2xxx/3xxx/4xxx ? | 15:24 |
| Touhou11 | A desktop shell shouldn't take an accelerated video card, even an older one | 15:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Topslack: sadly, compiz does | 15:25 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, even the setup is unusable | 15:26 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, mouse not really movable to buttons | 15:26 |
| erle- | erle-, i did not come to any choice of DEs | 15:26 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: which release are you on? | 15:26 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: cat /etc/issue in a terminal will tell you | 15:27 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, i am on 13.04 and want to try 13.10-rc | 15:28 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, but thats not my problem, i wanted to ask a general report why it is slow since years now, while it was working fine like 2 years ago | 15:28 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, in a nutshell: who broke what? | 15:28 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, i think it is the hosts fault btw, other distros also seem slow to unusable, without any desktop fancy effects | 15:29 |

| Zal | blz, nothing I can think of offhand. What you're trying to do may not be possible. Have you considered mounting once on the NFS client, and symlinking the appropriate subdirectories to the desired locations? | 16:09 |
| blz | Zal, hmm that might be a good solution, actually | 16:10 |

| Irrelium | I am having trouble installing the proprietary AMD display drivers (fglrx) for my 7950, and I was wondering if anyone could help | 16:17 |
| Irrelium | Whenever I install them, on boot I get a "The system is running in low-graphics mode" | 16:17 |
| Irrelium | Reinstalling the open source drivers fixes it and I can boot fine | 16:18 |

| erle- | MonkeyDust, thanks | 16:19 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: log off, set the DE at login | 16:20 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: then login | 16:20 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: lightdm is not a DE | 16:21 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, MonkeyDust: cant find any button in login screen | 16:21 |
| erle- | ActionParsnip, i know, but lightdm is the login screen | 16:21 |

| trism | erle-: if you install gnome-panel you can get the gnome flashback session which might work | 16:24 |
| trism | erle-: or lubuntu/xubuntu | 16:24 |
| erle- | trism, thanks, that is what i need | 16:24 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: saucy support is in #ubuntu+1 til release day | 16:24 |
| Irrelium | Are the Catalyst drivers downloaded from AMD's website the same as the ones you get with the fglrx package? | 16:25 |
| yeik | i am having a problem with updates - http://pastebin.com/X7KW8v7w anybody very good with dpkg and apt-get? | 16:25 |
| tgm4883 | Irrelium, I believe so (provided you build the package with the installer from the AMD site), although you'll probably get newer versions from AMD | 16:25 |

| chegney | ActionParsnip, that didn't fix the skipping | 16:26 |
| Irrelium | I am having trouble getting fglrx or fglrx-updates to work, is it worth trying the drivers from AMDs website, or should I try something else? | 16:26 |
| chegney | my netbook has that poulsbo audio crap | 16:26 |
| ActionParsnip | erle-: if the issue is in saucy, it is in #ubuntu+1 | 16:26 |

| yeik | ActionParsnip, Are you sure? I have mounted several nfs drives using fstab. | 16:36 |
| GZA-Genius | mluser-laptop: have you checked if you can get a CABLECARD from your provider? | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip | eflynn: install something else, then log off and log in to the new session | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip | yeik: as far as I know | 16:36 |
| eflynn | i mean | 16:37 |
| eflynn | how do i get gnome | 16:37 |
| eflynn | unity sucks | 16:37 |
| ActionParsnip | eflynn: you have it now | 16:37 |
| mluser-laptop | GZA-Genius: No, I have not. It also has to be compatible with linux/ubuntu, which is why I wanted to ask here first | 16:37 |
| ActionParsnip | eflynn: Unity is a shell for Gnome, you are running gnome now. Unity does not replace gnome | 16:37 |
| eflynn | how do i get rid of unity | 16:37 |
| GZA-Genius | mluser-laptop: well cablecard is first issue | 16:37 |
| MonkeyDust | eflynn install other DE, logout, switch, login | 16:37 |
| mjayk | eflynn: install another D.E. | 16:37 |
| blz | GZA-Genius, How would I go about designating a network address as my source path? Something like 192.168.1.12:/remote/path ? | 16:38 |

| ActionParsnip | eflynn: you can even switch from compiz to metacity and unity will go but you will need to add a startup item to run gnome-panel | 16:39 |

| paulens12 | jrib: it's like ssh-rsa (a lot of letters)== (my email) | 17:15 |

| paulens12 | jrib: oh | 17:16 |
| jrib | paulens12: anyway, if you used the web interface to add your key, try a git pull | 17:16 |
| paulens12 | jrib: but i generated the key with ssh-keygen -t rsa -C (email) | 17:16 |
| jrib | paulens12: (over ssh) | 17:16 |
| jrib | paulens12: yes, -C just specificies a comment | 17:16 |
| paulens12 | jrib: ok, i see... but now to try pull, i just do git pull user@host dir? | 17:17 |
| jrib | paulens12: uh, try a fresh clone instead; it will be easier | 17:18 |

| wilee-nilee | kelly, what picture | 17:33 |

| danlee | eer: you may try to add more dns server into /etc/dnsmasq.conf | 17:35 |
| danlee | like 8.8.8.8 | 17:35 |
| danlee | which is a dns server from Google | 17:35 |

| rootpt | w8 | 19:06 |
| kam | reisio: is it not possible to do it? | 19:07 |
| rootpt | i need to install checkinstall first to do like bekks says | 19:07 |
| reisio | kam: what? | 19:08 |
| bekks | rootpt: Then do so. | 19:08 |
| DeepBlue | reisio: good idea except that i'm enterrupted every time i get alerts | 19:08 |

| bekks | rootpt: Dont do make install. You may mess up your system when doing it without checkinstall. | 19:10 |
| reisio | kam: what part of reversing it is confusing you? | 19:10 |
| DeepBlue | reisio: u 2 | 19:11 |

| Aniar | i have a laptop running Kubuntu 13.04 (upgrade from 12.?? . I had a disk problem, so I booted to a kubuntu 13.04 live CD to do the backup/restore to new disk... in the livecd boot, I noticed I had gotten an IPv6 address from AT&T (finally) which I need for some testing... | 19:24 |
| Aniar | when I got back into my normal install... no ipv6 addresses have been recieved. | 19:24 |
| Aniar | sysctl.conf has only uncommented entries. I'm using network manager, and IPv6 is enabled on both connctions (wireless and wired) | 19:25 |
| bekks | yan__: kioslaves from KDE are running wild as it seems. | 19:25 |
| Aniar | (wired is where I noticed it picked up on the livecd) | 19:25 |
| Aniar | nothing in /etc/network/ mentioning ipv6... so what am I missing that needs to be changed to get ipv6 working on this system? | 19:25 |
| yan__ | bekks: hm, what are kioslaves? | 19:25 |
| Aniar | i have link local addresses, just not the router-assigned ones | 19:25 |
| yan__ | bekks: funny, it just stopped, but I don't know why | 19:26 |
| bekks | yan__: Some internal kde stuff :) I used KDE too long ago, I cant remember more specifically. | 19:26 |
| bekks | yan__: then you closed some program? | 19:26 |
| yan__ | bekks: hehe, ok. no, right now i didn't close anything. before, i closed everything, but %sy stayed up | 19:27 |
| yan__ | bekks: strange | 19:27 |
| Jordan_U | Aniar: What makes you think that your router/modem/ISP supports ipv6? Can you pastebin the output of "route -n"? and "ifconfig"? | 19:27 |
| yan__ | bekks: how did you notice that kioslaves might be the problem? | 19:27 |
| Aniar | because every CentOS and Windows box got an IPV6 address. Because in the LiveCD, I got an IPv6 address. Because I asked AT&T to assign me one, which they did, which is where I got the address subnet | 19:28 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, no errors from checkinstall ? can you do a ls in the main directory and also include the output from from checkinstall into a pastebin | 19:28 |
| Aniar | from the system I'm running irssi on: inet6 addr: 2602:306:31db: | 19:28 |
| rootpt | drmagoo ok | 19:28 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: that's not link-local - that's a real assigned address. | 19:28 |

| eer | What exactly does it mean when the gateway in the routing table is 0.0.0.0 ? That doesn't make sense to me. | 19:32 |
| eer | How can a gateway be anyting? | 19:32 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: They're useless because they have only link-local addresses | 19:32 |
| magdur | guys when will be released ubuntu 13.10? | 19:32 |
| rootpt | drmagoo http://pastebin.com/gfaxuQG6 | 19:32 |
| cgtdk | magdur: oct. 17th | 19:32 |
| eer | Is it safe to say that when gateway is 0.0.0.0 that entry is a LAN address then? | 19:33 |
| bekks | eer: Whats the entire output? Pastebin it please. | 19:33 |
| Jordan_U | Aniar: If there's no ipv6 default gateway then that's your problem. | 19:33 |
| bekks | eer: And no, thats neither safe, nor true. | 19:33 |
| magdur | should am i upgrade 13.04 from 13.10 ? | 19:33 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: to recap another way: I've always had link-local (FE80::) addresses in my environment. AT&T gave me an assigned IPv6 subnet last week, configured their end of my router. Today my whole Unix/Windows lab is picking up those auto-configured IPv6 addresses from that network. Except my laptop, and only when my laptop is in my upgraded 13.04 build. When I booted it from the liveCD, it got an address. | 19:34 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: so, to recap: only 1 system of 18 is broken | 19:34 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: the one that's broken is the only system in the lab that was an upgrade rather than a clean build. | 19:34 |
| eer | bekks, http://pastebin.com/T3C32xU7 | 19:35 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: so, *my* analysis (which I admin could be wrong) is that I have something misconfigured on this local machine. But I don't know what | 19:35 |
| TheAvatar | Hello. I am trying to extend a partition that resides on vmware and using lvm. I extended the physical disk (vmware), but now I try to remove and extend the extended partition. Right now it resides from block 501760, but when I delete it, and try to recreate it, it refuses to start until 503806. What am I missing here? | 19:35 |
| bekks | eer: And which line is unclear? | 19:35 |
| cgtdk | magdur: you should probably wait until it is released, and I'd wait a couple of weeks after it is released | 19:36 |
| eer | bekks, all | 19:36 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, you do get an error. | 19:36 |
| eer | 0.0.0.0 means any address, right? | 19:36 |
| bekks | eer: then please read "man route". | 19:36 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: I took a guess... 8 768 ACCEPT ipv6-icmp any any anywhere anywhere ipv6-icmp router-advertisement | 19:36 |
| Aniar | Jordan_U: and it worked | 19:37 |
| eer | bekks, where in man route does it explain about the 0.0.0.0 value ? | 19:37 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, you need to edit all the sw.c-files in every subdirectory... I think that is the easiest way, instead of messing about with the makefile | 19:37 |
| eer | bekks, can't find the spot | 19:37 |
| bekks | eer: Then read the entire man page please. | 19:37 |
| eer | is Author the end of the man page? | 19:38 |
| Guest65580 | hey friends , i cant record sound from spotify with audacity ... dont know what i am doing wrong ... i can see spotify in pulse controler but no visuals for playing sound | 19:38 |
| rootpt | drmagoo u're right :-\ | 19:38 |
| rootpt | im sick of this | 19:38 |
| rootpt | :X | 19:38 |
| reisio | eer: usually | 19:39 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, I can fully understand that... this is the boring part with drivers | 19:39 |
| unkmar | How long is a release supported? | 19:39 |
| bekks | unkmar: Depends on the exact release. | 19:39 |
| tgm4883 | unkmar, 9 months starting with 13.04 for non-LTS releases. 5 years for LTS releases | 19:40 |
| eer | Anybody knows the man page where the value 0.0.0.0 in regards to routing is explained? | 19:40 |
| unkmar | tgm4883: and LTS's are the x.04 ??? | 19:40 |
| bekks | eer: How about reading the entire man page to basically understand routing? | 19:40 |
| tgm4883 | unkmar, no, LTS are the x.04 every other year. (eg. 10.04, 12.04, 14.04) | 19:40 |
| lmat | Is there an easy way to search http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | 19:41 |
| tgm4883 | bekks, I've not read the backlog, so feel free to tell me to buzz off, but this is starting to sound a lot like RTFM, which I think is frowned upon | 19:41 |
| rootpt | drmagoo i think i will need to start to think to use another distro :-\ | 19:42 |
| tgm4883 | lmat, go to google and do "site:irclogs.ubuntu.com WORDS TO SEARCH FOR" | 19:42 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, Im afraid that you will have the same issue with any distro. When it comes to the Realtek drivers | 19:42 |
| eer | If I enter netstat -tuna I get for example 0.0.0.0:80 for local address. Meaning a web server is running. But why 0.0.0.0 and not 127.0.0.1 ? | 19:43 |
| rootpt | geez | 19:43 |
| TheAvatar | eer, because 0.0.0.0 means all available interfaces. 127.0.0.1 is only local host | 19:43 |
| tgm4883 | eer, in some instances, 0.0.0.0 means listen on any interface. This is not always the case | 19:43 |
| rootpt | this will always be like this? | 19:43 |
| TheAvatar | eer, if it said 127.0.0.1, which is very much possible, there is no way anybody externally (lan+internet) can access it | 19:43 |
| eer | TheAvatar, so for testing purposes on a test machine. Now I understand. | 19:44 |
| TheAvatar | eer, say, you have 2 network cards, and/or multiple ip addresses on the machine. 0.0.0.0 means it will bind (and hence reply) on both nics and all IP-addresses (more or less) | 19:44 |
| eer | TheAvatar, thx | 19:44 |
| rootpt | drmagoo i used kali-linux before install ubuntu 13.04 and it was nice.. wireless running very well... | 19:45 |
| TheAvatar | eer, depending on what you test, you would hardly want e.g. a webserver to bind on 127.0.0.1, but of course, it is possible, and in some scenarios, you might want that | 19:45 |
| eer | So 0.0.0.0 can be translated into English like: all installed network cards and their IP addresses? | 19:45 |
| bekks | eer: No. | 19:45 |
| bekks | eer: It strongly depends on the context. | 19:45 |
| TheAvatar | eer, well, as a newbie question, I guess you could say yes, but the answer is no | 19:46 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, Havent tried that distro. =) | 19:46 |
| TheAvatar | eer, it is not as straight forward, but I guess in most cases, that translation would be somewhat correct | 19:46 |
| eer | ok | 19:46 |
| tgm4883 | TheAvatar, I believe the context he is asking about is the routing table | 19:47 |
| reisio | eer: ok | 19:47 |
| rootpt | i read somewhere a dude have this error like me, and then he install mint and never get that error again, it is possible? | 19:47 |
| rootpt | drmagoo i read somewhere a dude have this error like me, and then he install mint and never get that error again, it is possible? | 19:47 |

| tgm4883 | lmat, yw | 19:47 |
| TheAvatar | tgm4883, okay - I did actually join in the middle of the discussion. People just sounded reluctant to help | 19:48 |
| TheAvatar | eer, if we are talking routing wise, it means something else, yes | 19:48 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, not sure.. As I understand it it, the problem should be related to the Kernel-version and no the distro... But I'm only running Ubuntu on my boxes so I can test and verify on another distro | 19:48 |
| tgm4883 | TheAvatar, i've not been here since the beginning either, but bekks knows what going on | 19:48 |
| unkmar | tgm4883: bekks: that is what I expected to hear and not exactly what I want to hear. Not my fault previous sys/admin installed 10.10 a non LTS. | 19:48 |
| eer | ok, thx | 19:48 |
| unkmar | Thank you. | 19:48 |
| rootpt | drmagoo i see :-\ | 19:48 |
| tgm4883 | unkmar, yea, I've inherited a situation much like that as well | 19:49 |
| rootpt | i don't know what to do drmagoo | 19:49 |
| TheAvatar | basically, it means all other networks that you do not have any routes (or locally) access to. So guess it could translate into anything-not-known. Others correct me if I'm wrong if this is not the basic way of explaining it | 19:49 |
| rootpt | i really need my laptop | 19:49 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, if you want it to work you need to edit the last sw.c files and then hope for the best..=) | 19:49 |
| TheAvatar | tgm4883, aha okay, I just read his replies as "what a noob question, go RTFM" ;) | 19:49 |
| rootpt | edit the files and erase that evident word ? | 19:50 |
| drmagoo | rootpt, yes... make sure that you get the entire word but leave the rest of that line intact | 19:50 |

| Psil0Cybin | hey guys can someone help me figure out why alot of my repos are failing it keeps saying to check my internet connection but my internet connection is fine im talking to you guys right now and downloading something | 20:35 |
| Psil0Cybin | http://pastebin.com/n3PgMqVm | 20:35 |
| Psil0Cybin | maybe they are down in general? | 20:35 |
| Psil0Cybin | although some of them look important | 20:35 |
| k1l | Psil0Cybin: that are PPAs. please make sure that PPAs still exist and are still maintained. | 20:36 |
| tgm4883 | Psil0Cybin, it looks like the only ones that are down are the private-ppa ones | 20:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | oh okay nothing that is necessary for ubuntu security updates? I was a little confused | 20:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | if they are indeed not maintained, how can I remove them? | 20:36 |
| Psil0Cybin | how do I remove the steam ppa? | 20:37 |
| Psil0Cybin | for example | 20:37 |
| bekks | !ppa-purge | Psil0Cybin | 20:37 |
| ubottu | Psil0Cybin: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 20:37 |
| Psil0Cybin | so how would I find the ppa for steam for example | 20:38 |
| craigbass1976 | Psil0Cybin, Are you on Fairpoint? They're notorious in my neighborhood (Southern Maine) for dropping out just enough to bork an update. | 20:38 |
| Psil0Cybin | nope Teksavvy from Toronto Canada | 20:38 |
| Psil0Cybin | im on DSL so i never drop out | 20:38 |

| craigbass1976 | Psil0Cybin, Fairpoint was also DSL. There's a lady at the end of my street, and I pick her laptop up every now and again to run updates at my house. I moved to another ISP | 20:39 |
| Psil0Cybin | so i would do sudo ppa-purge ppa:steam ? | 20:39 |

| kostkon | Psil0Cybin, it's not a ppa, it won't work | 20:40 |

| Psil0Cybin | becasue it keeps saying that i cannot update | 20:40 |
| Psil0Cybin | that that i need to check my network connection | 20:40 |

| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 20:45 |
| kostkon | Psil0Cybin, in software sources, remove the steam repo entry and then just uninstall steam if that's what you want to do. i'm saying this because ppa-purge removes the ppa from the software sources and also removes any installed pacakges coming from that repo. | 20:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | like why do i get this Ign http://ppa.launchpad.net precise/main Translation-en_CA why does it ignore that? | 20:47 |

| Psil0Cybin | ? | 20:47 |
| * Johnny_Linux slaps FloodBot1 for flooding | 20:47 | |
| kostkon | Psil0Cybin, but in this case you can't use ppa-purge to remove the steam repo from your software sources | 20:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | so where is the software sources? | 20:48 |
| rootpt | bekks its all ok know, i've wireless connection | 20:48 |
| kostkon | Psil0Cybin, don't worry but about the ign lines, and keep your private ppas, don't remove them | 20:48 |
| kostkon | Psil0Cybin, open the software centre, then select edit -> software sources from the menu. that's the easy way | 20:48 |
| rootpt | Thanks for all | 20:48 |
| Psil0Cybin | package manger? | 20:48 |

| === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away | ||
| faugusztin | cbilljones: i would still suggest you installing ratpoison or similar window manager, to be able to switch between windows, but yeah, you can do that | 21:19 |
| Dr_Willis | or somthing tiny like jwm, | 21:19 |
| faugusztin | cbilljones: ratpoison = http://ratpoison.nongnu.org/ | 21:20 |
| cbilljones | faugustzin i dont want user to be able to switch windows, this is a point of sale software | 21:20 |
| Dr_Willis | running with no window manger at all can be a real pain in some cases. and given how tiny some of these wm's are - you dont save a lot on resources | 21:20 |
| Dr_Willis | ive seen Koisk focused disrtos out there allready premadeup. | 21:20 |
| Dr_Willis | you have to watch out for dialog box's that may popup. or file requestors. or print dialog box's or other things that might happen | 21:21 |
| faugusztin | cbilljones: well try out what is in that article you linked, if it won't satisfy your needs you can still try ratpoison etc | 21:21 |
| cbilljones | faugusztin do you know how i make it autologin to that entry? | 21:21 |
| Dr_Willis | lightdm has a autologin option, and it will rember the last seleceted session if the user logs out and selects a differnt one. (its stored in the .dmrc file) | 21:23 |
| faugusztin | cbilljones: depends on your login manager (lightdm/kdm/gdm etc) | 21:24 |
| faugusztin | cbilljones: http://askubuntu.com/questions/51086/how-do-i-enable-auto-login-in-lightdm | 21:24 |
| cbilljones | faugusztin i think i found it, would i adjust /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm-set-defaults --session [session name]? like on this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM | 21:24 |
| faugusztin | cbilljones: indeed | 21:24 |
| faugusztin | and session name is the name of the session you manually created | 21:25 |
| cbilljones | ok i will try, any idea if vino will still run? im not at the office lol | 21:25 |
| cbilljones | faugusztin ok i will try, any idea if vino will still run? im not at the office lol | 21:25 |
| faugusztin | cbilljones: no idea, i don't use vino | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | I would be suprised if vino still works if you are using some minimial desktop thats just running one app and no windwo manager | 21:26 |

| kalekip1 | I gives some hex error (something like 0x000001) | 21:28 |
| bekks | kalekip1: The exact error could be helpfull. | 21:28 |
| clifter | Is it better to install with using the "Ubuntu Software Center" or from "Terminal" using sudo apt-get install <program> ? ? Advantages or disadvantages to either way ? ? | 21:29 |
| kalekip1 | bekks: Then I would have to hibernate again :/ | 21:29 |
| daysahead5 | i prefer apt-get | 21:29 |
| daysahead5 | you should also check out aptitude | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | try not mounting your windows drives in linux at all. that way they are untouched. have windows check the windows partions also.. and id have to suggest check the #windows channel | 21:29 |
| cbilljones | faugusztin ok i will find out soon, just rebooted; might have to drive to office haha | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | clifter: depends on if you know what you need. vs wanting to browse an 'app store' interface | 21:29 |
| bekks | clifter: Same result. Just two different front-ends, one graphical, one text-based. | 21:29 |
| daysahead5 | you can search with apt-get e.g. apt-cache search x11 | 21:30 |

| Dr_Willis | kalekip1: 2 seperate hard drives? or 2 partitions? | 21:31 |

| kalekip1 | 2 partitions | 21:31 |
| Frank81 | Hello some one knows a good way to scan a network based on host list or even ip range for a open port and if open do telnet and run some command and log the result to a log file? | 21:31 |
| bekks | photon: Setup a NNTP server and start receiving regular groups. | 21:31 |
| kalekip1 | Dr_Willis: same drive | 21:31 |
| kalekip1 | neti_netwalker: Will check it out, ty for Googeling | 21:31 |
| Dr_Willis | kalekip1: id make fstab entries in linux, and insure that it does not mount any windws drives. that would elimanate linux being the issue. of course if you boot/reboot/suspend windows sefveral times in a row with the same problem. and never go to linux inbetween - that would eliminate linux as being the casue also. | 21:32 |
| kalekip1 | Somebody says that changing the boot flag to the first partition would help. How would I do that? Do I have to be on Ubuntu? | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Frank81: sounds like somthing you could script with nmap, and bash, or perl/python/awk | 21:33 |
| kalekip1 | I'm not on Windows | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | kalekip1: gparted can set flags | 21:33 |
| kalekip1 | I am* | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | as for setting it inside windows.. ask on #windows | 21:34 |
| Dr_Willis | it may allreadybe set | 21:34 |
| Frank81 | ok so i need to write a bash script i tought there is maybe a solution for such tasks | 21:34 |
| kalekip1 | Windows doesn't have root access, so I assume not | 21:34 |
| Frank81 | a advanced scaner or else with guy | 21:34 |
| Frank81 | gui :D | 21:34 |
| SonikkuAmerica | kalekip1: Like Dr_Willis said, GParted works | 21:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Frank81: theres most likely dozens of examples online of scripts that do similer things. | 21:34 |
| clifter | Dr_Willis: Yup with you on that. I favor Terminal. Wasn't sure, Thanks much. | 21:34 |
| kalekip1 | but I will ask | 21:35 |
| kalekip1 | ty | 21:35 |
| Frank81 | and a other question i have is does any one in here how i could recive or view news groups | 21:35 |
| Frank81 | like alt.bin and so on? | 21:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Frank81: use a news reader app like PAN. but i dont know of any 'free' news group servers lately. they are getting sort of rare | 21:35 |
| clifter | bekks: Yup, Thanks. | 21:35 |
| Dr_Willis | !info pan | 21:35 |
| ubottu | pan (source: pan): newsreader based on GTK2, which looks like Forte Agent. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.139-2 (raring), package size 1197 kB, installed size 3626 kB | 21:35 |
| Frank81 | ya i know i mean i wanna make my own server | 21:36 |
| Frank81 | how does that work they any how need to work | 21:36 |
| Dr_Willis | there should be some news group serves in the repos. | 21:36 |
| Dr_Willis | why would you want to run your own. ;) | 21:36 |
| Frank81 | and then simply run em? can i connect em to the others or how do they get data? | 21:36 |
| Gallomimia | seem to be having serious trouble with my xorg.conf file. following these directions: http://www.unixmen.com/howto-install-ati-display-driver-in-ubuntu/ | 21:36 |
| bekks | Frank81: you need to setup a NNTP server, and register for pulling groups at another NNTP server. | 21:36 |
| Frank81 | i whant free access and don't understand it | 21:36 |
| Frank81 | :D | 21:36 |
| Frank81 | ah and so i probally need to pay the other nntp server so i have content like firstload? | 21:37 |
| bekks | Frank81: Correct. | 21:37 |
| Frank81 | so newsgroups are nntp networks interisting only know nntp from sending config files to hardware | 21:38 |
| Frank81 | :D | 21:38 |
| Dr_Willis | running your own server wont give you free access to pay servers | 21:38 |
| Frank81 | i understand | 21:38 |
| daysahead5 | after updating upstart do I have to reboot the system for the new version to take effect? | 21:38 |
| Frank81 | it was only coz as i was young news groups was free | 21:38 |
| bekks | daysahead5: Yes. | 21:38 |
| Frank81 | and we shared software over that after mailboxes got to slow | 21:38 |
| Frank81 | :D | 21:38 |
| daysahead5 | that's what i thought, thanks bekks | 21:38 |
| bekks | Frank81: No offense meant, you must be an old man nowadays. | 21:39 |
| Frank81 | :D | 21:39 |
| Frank81 | 32 | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Frank81: that was ages ago. ;) Lifehacker had some articals on newsgroups eveyr so often. but i dont mess with them any more | 21:39 |
| Frank81 | i was much into cracking software dongls | 21:39 |
| Frank81 | :D | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | They got so cluttered 10 or so years back - with kids posting rar'd archives that needed passwords and so forth.. got rather annoying | 21:40 |
| photon | bekks: no, I don't want to actually run an own NNTP server, I just want to mirror the *contents* of the NNTP messages (ie as text files on the hdd). sorry, wasn't clear. | 21:40 |
| Frank81 | but that rar's wasn't from the real releasing scene :D | 21:40 |

| cipherboy | Question.

| reisio | Dr_Willis: not for binaries | 21:45 |
| reisio | maybe to an utterly useless extent | 21:45 |

| reisio | I'm sure | 21:45 |
| Gallomimia | i've just built a new system and the video drivers are giving me some grief. i've eventually landed on writing an xorg.conf file and finding very little help on it, in manuals and the article i was following | 21:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Gallomimia: for the most part the xorg.conf is rarely needed X auto-configures. Whats the specific video chipset, and problem. | 21:46 |
| strk | unity 7.0.0 -- just installed with Ubuntu 13.04 -- is not showing me an open terminal window again after switching to another window and back, very frustrating | 21:46 |
| linus | reisio: I just found 1 blink bling cursor "_" | 21:47 |
| strk | steps to reproduce: 1. open terminal 2. open firefox 3. click on terminal again (won't go there) -- same with alt-tab, you can select the terminal but there will be no window switch, temrinal will remain hidden forever | 21:47 |
| Gallomimia | Dr_Willis: i was following the instructions i found in an article, everything went well until i rebooted. now the system has lost the primary menus, the dock, and all windowing operations run like win95 on a 286 | 21:47 |
| reisio | linus: what if you hit CTRL+ALT+F7 | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | strk: you can middle click on the terminal icon in the left side panel to launch a new instance. but sounds like some odd bug. try making a brand new user, and see if the issue also affects them | 21:47 |

| OerHeks | my wild guess would be libglu1-mesa | 22:29 |
| Riptide | Do I need to install that or something? | 22:30 |

| Papa_Doc | hi how to uninstall kde completely from ubuntu 13.10? | 23:18 |
| Pop-Tart | sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 23:19 |
| reisio | Papa_Doc: and use what instead? | 23:19 |
| === [_-S1L3NC3-_] is now known as PR1M3-1NST1NCT | ||
| cgtdk | Pop-Tart: Pretty sure removing "kubuntu-desktop" won't remove all the KDE junk | 23:20 |
| tgm4883 | Pop-Tart, probably need an autoremove in there too | 23:20 |
| andrewaclt | If I install 13.10 beta will I get all the updates on the 17th? | 23:21 |
| Papa_Doc | Unity. I want to keep kde but I want to remove it anyways because it changed my login screen and I want the original login back | 23:21 |
| glycan | I somehow managed to have a mouse in my TTY. | 23:21 |
| tgm4883 | andrewaclt, yes you will | 23:21 |
| andrewaclt | tgm4883, so it just turns into the full version without anything extra? | 23:21 |
| cgtdk | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/pureubuntu there's a list of packages here to remove Kubuntu completely, but it hasn't been updated for 13.04 | 23:22 |
| tgm4883 | andrewaclt, and support for 13.10 is currently in #ubuntu+1 | 23:22 |
| andrewaclt | s/full version/non-beta | 23:22 |
| tgm4883 | andrewaclt, yes | 23:22 |
| andrewaclt | tgm4883, ok thanks | 23:22 |
| sgehrman | Just installed 13.10 and my .Xmodmap is no longer loading. (I'm a noob, but googled a bunch already) | 23:22 |
| glycan | I'm not complaining or anything. It's pretty cool, I just have no frigging clue how any amount of messing around with service lightdm could of caused that. | 23:22 |
| Papa_Doc | cgtdk I'm on 13.10 | 23:22 |
| sgehrman | is there a better way to swap the left cntrl and alt? | 23:22 |
| tgm4883 | Papa_Doc, #ubuntu+1 but you should just remove the login screen kde package I think | 23:23 |
| ghost_ | hey guys fast question im getting trouble with blackbuntu wifi adapters im currently using my hp pavilion g7 | 23:23 |
| tgm4883 | !blackbuntu | ghost_ | 23:24 |
| Pop-Tart | I don't see intel or anything in software sources, so if it upgrades the packages from xorg-edgers, wouldn't it replace the intel ones and change them to the X/Xorg/default ones? | 23:24 |
| Papa_Doc | How do I remove it? I'm still getting the hang of linux thanks for thee patience | 23:24 |
| ghost_ | yes blackbuntu | 23:24 |
| tgm4883 | ghost_, that isn't supported here | 23:24 |
| ghost_ | oh am sorry i did not know anyways whenever im booting any ubuntu o.s its not bootin up properly on the hp | 23:25 |
| ghost_ | any solution | 23:25 |
| lazors | ghost_: Wrong channel. | 23:25 |
| Xecuter | Hi! I have some questions about installing Ubuntu on a Macbook Pro. I`ve already installed Elementray OS (an Ubuntu flavour) but I didn`t install rEFIt first, so my boot steps are a little f-ed up. As of now grub boots first, but if I want to boot OS X I need to hold the option key, and then select boot from disk. Can I fix this so that rEFIt is used? | 23:25 |
| linus | execuse me, how to change swap memory | 23:25 |
| wilee-nilee | linus, Change in what way? | 23:26 |
| Johnny_Linux | swapiness | 23:26 |
| linus | from 5 gig to 1 gig | 23:26 |
| Pop-Tart | I don't see intel or anything in software sources, so if it upgrades the packages from xorg-edgers, wouldn't it replace the intel ones and change them to the X/Xorg/default ones? <- Wouldn't that work? | 23:26 |
| Pop-Tart | sudo apt-get install gparted | 23:26 |
| wilee-nilee | linus, do it in gparted if you have the space, make a new one. | 23:27 |
| Pop-Tart | Then open gparted from the dash | 23:27 |
| linus | what the type of partition system ext or swap | 23:27 |
| Pop-Tart | swap | 23:27 |
| linus | ouh thank | 23:27 |
| reisio | Xecuter: grub should be able to manage whatever refit can | 23:27 |
| reisio | Xecuter: but yes, you can change whatever | 23:28 |
| Xecuter | reisio: ah i see, but as of now i`m not able to boot os x from grub, even though it`s listed in the grub menu | 23:28 |
| reisio | Xecuter: can fix that, too | 23:28 |
| Xecuter | reisio: I just get a black screen | 23:28 |
| reisio | Xecuter: something you use Mac OS for, though? :p | 23:28 |
| Xecuter | reisio: yeah audio stuff :p | 23:29 |
| reisio | audio stuff you like paying for :p | 23:29 |
| sbimike | is it possible for me to install 12.04 LTS Server 64-bit and then upgrade to a specific kernel like 3.2.0-31 ? | 23:30 |
| Xecuter | reisio: can`t live without pro tools or ableton :p | 23:30 |
| sbimike | i dont want go go beyond that; i have to match a specific driver .ko | 23:30 |
| krabador | sbimike, you can , if you want, and if you know how, mod your ubuntu installation | 23:31 |
| sbimike | well whats the most stable way to install a fresh ubuntu on a specific kernel version? | 23:31 |
| reisio | Xecuter: there are alternatives, you'd have to learn how to use them in an equivalent fashion, but then, since they're open source, you would basically NEVER have to relearn or pay for software for this task again | 23:31 |
| reisio | ever | 23:31 |
| reisio | find a bug? You can fix it yourself if you want | 23:31 |
| reisio | sbimike: kernel is one of the easiest bits to swap | 23:32 |
| reisio | sbimike: if there's a prebuilt kernel image of the version you want for any Debian-based distro (or even almost any distro at all), you can pretty much just put it where it belongs and say where it is | 23:32 |
| sbimike | reisio: you're talking about modding the .iso? | 23:33 |
| reisio | sbimike: just needs to be told to load your important driver modules | 23:33 |
| Gallomimia | alright. i have this output from fglrxinfo (finally) http://pastebin.com/f1B2F48T what does it mean? | 23:33 |
| reisio | sbimike: no, I'm talking about copying a file to /boot/, modifying grub.cfg, and calling it a day | 23:33 |
| reisio | sbimike: building it yourself is more involved, but also fairly simple | 23:33 |
| sbimike | reisio there are linux-headers-4.3.0-31-virtual | 23:33 |
| reisio | sbimike: headers are something else | 23:34 |
| sbimike | i'm on 12.04 lts 64-bit now with 3.2.0-39-virtual | 23:34 |
| Xecuter | reisio: there is no substitute for pro tools or ableton on a professional level, if pro tools came to linux i would be soooo happy! | 23:34 |
| krabador | sbimike, g | 23:34 |
| reisio | Xecuter: sure there is | 23:34 |
| reisio | unless you define professional as costing you money :p | 23:34 |
| krabador | sbimike, for a server edition , the best choice is a kernel lts | 23:34 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Xecuter: How's Pro Tools under Wine? | 23:35 |
| krabador | sbimike, kernel.org can tell you more | 23:35 |
| linus | Damn I Love Linux , I don't know what to do , it's make me crazy | 23:35 |
| sbimike | so i'm hoping to install fresh 12.04 lts and then switch to kernel 3.2.0-31 instead of 3.2.0-39 | 23:35 |
| Xecuter | SonikkuAmerica: haven`t tried, and not going to try. can`t afford to lose performans to a wine layer | 23:35 |
| reisio | linus: ikr | 23:36 |
| linus | reisio: ikr ? | 23:36 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I know, right? | 23:36 |
| reisio | SonikkuAmerica: ikr | 23:36 |
| linus | opss | 23:36 |
| Xecuter | reisio: i define as professional as earning money on it ;) | 23:36 |
| linus | A.R | 23:37 |
| reisio | Xecuter: I can earn money making music with arecord and a mic | 23:37 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Lol IMHO idc | 23:37 |
| reisio | or an online Flash/HTML5 sequencer :p | 23:37 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lol arecord | 23:37 |
| reisio | could make money selling copies of music created with http://www.incredibox.fr/ | 23:37 |
| reisio | or going outside and sitting on a bucket | 23:38 |
| Xecuter | reisio: haha, well aparently you don`t so... | 23:38 |
| reisio | no I use a saxamaphone :p | 23:38 |
| reisio | what do protools and ableton have that lmms hasn't? | 23:38 |
| linus | how to make money on internet | 23:38 |
| reisio | linus: step 1) lie | 23:38 |
| utusan | is this ubuntu? | 23:38 |
| reisio | utusan: hi | 23:39 |
| linus | step 2 ??? | 23:39 |
| reisio | linus: profit | 23:39 |
| utusan | where are the mods | 23:39 |
| reisio | utusan: /msg chanserv access #ubuntu list | 23:39 |
| sbimike | apt-get install linux-image-3.2.0-31-virtual && reboot | 23:39 |
| glycan | Is it possible to have unicode in a terminal? | 23:45 |
| * wilee-nilee calls giant steps 1, 2, 1234 | 23:46 | |
| glycan | Having french accents be displayed as "'a Londres" or "Fran,cais" is all very well and great but I'd rather be able to see them properly. | 23:46 |
| Xecuter | ok so back to the issue: how do I solve the black screen after selecting os x in grub? | 23:46 |
| glycan | And write? | 23:46 |
| somsip | glycan: yes - in a terminal that supports unicode, eg rxvt-unicode | 23:46 |
| reisio | glycan: and an appropriate font chosen | 23:47 |
| reisio | dejavu should suffice for european additions alone | 23:47 |
| glycan | somsip, reisio: I mean in a TTY, like C-A-F1 | 23:47 |
| reisio | Xecuter: you going to solve that and then replace the OS, or? | 23:47 |
| reisio | glycan: you'd need a special font, like terminus | 23:47 |
| glycan | How dan I even change the font of a TTY? | 23:48 |
| reisio | glycan: there's a config file somewhere | 23:48 |
| reisio | I don't know where on ubuntu, someone else will | 23:48 |
| Xecuter | reisio: yes I was thinking about installing ubuntu gnome, but i suspect the problem will remain, so if I know how to solve it it won`t be a problem later | 23:48 |
| Dr_Willis | for the console. theres a config file in /etc/ i tweaked it ages ago glycan | 23:48 |
| reisio | Xecuter: well if you're going to change OS, I'd wait to see if the problem even persists to address it | 23:49 |
| Dr_Willis | /etc/console-setup/ has fonts i recall that cab be used | 23:49 |
| jmgk | hello Dr_Willis | 23:49 |
| Dr_Willis | howdies | 23:50 |
