[00:34] veryhappy: I'll toy with that a bit later on; at least port 4000 works at the moment. I could just setup an ssh-tunnel as a kluge for the time being. [00:35] So I'm using the PPA xorg-edgers, and I'm wondering how to use a specific version of it, if that's possible [00:35] ok [00:35] lifebird64: good luck [00:36] veryhappy: thx again [00:37] lifebird64: no problem buddy === abi_ is now known as abipathak [00:41] !42 [00:41] The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.

I own an ASUS K55N and I was curious as to whether anyone had succesfully installed Ubuntu in Secure Boot mode on said laptop. === Guest43325 is now known as goatse [01:22] I understand it's been an extremely tricky system to install Linux on from several different forum posts I've come across [01:23] It seems like my process is only taking 1 GB of the available swap memory, although I have 8 GB. Is this a configuration? [01:24] randypopabawa: I think you'll be very lucky to find somebody who will report that they have a same laptop -- but try reading !uefi and find out how you can boot Ubuntu. [01:24] !uefi | randypopabawa [01:24] randypopabawa: 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 === goatse is now known as interloper [01:25] everyone that has an ASUS K55N says the only way they can boot Ubuntu is by disabling secure boot [01:27] How do I install software when apt-get bugs me that I have other software with unmet dependancies? [01:27] that I can't resolve the deps, and the software works fine [01:27] and I'm trying to install something else [01:28] randypopabawa, Not much uefi info here, a bit new still for real exact support, I would ask that at the ubuntu forums. [01:29] Accordig to one of the forums the dev community plans on having the UEFI squared away by Ubuntu 14.04 [01:29] all apt-get wants to do is uninstall chrome-beta and it's pissing me off [01:29] So I might just have to wait and deal with Win H8 [01:30] randypopabawa, except that the manufacturers have their own versions, I would not hold my breath [01:30] So it IS an issue with my bios then? [01:31] randypopabawa, possibly, and a secure boot is not really needed for linux, and can be bypassed anyway, not a perfect protection. [01:32] ok. so if I did just disable secure boot and install Ubuntu in legacy mode it wouldn't impair the performance of the system? [01:32] because my understanding was that secure boot also increased performance benchmarks [01:32] randypopabawa, The only place in general they intermingle is the boot., [01:32] two part question because i think one is related to the other: 1. how do edit services (which ones start and which ones don't)? 2. my physical audio device has now become my dummy audio device. I followed the instructions here but to no avail (meaning these instructions didn't work for me): http://itsfoss.com/fix-sound-ubuntu-1304-quick-tip/ (i'm thinking my issue is related to JACK) - any other suggestions? [01:33] bootloader that is [01:33] hmm [01:33] so is there a way to optimize a boot loader to give optimal load time with a non-UEFI installation? [01:34] or will I just have to suck it up? [01:34] randypopabawa, Not sure in any way the secure boot will change performance all it does for windows is have a hybrid slep/hibeenate fast boot. [01:34] sleep/hibernate* [01:34] !upstart | gdos [01:34] gdos: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [01:34] gdos: the upstart cookbook detail i think 3 ways to disable services [01:35] randypopabawa, Heh 30 seconds to much for you? [01:35] Not at all. Just a fan of optimization [01:35] And a bit of a nitpicker, heh [01:36] freewill is an illusion, and so is optimization [01:36] get a ssd drive? ;) === interloper is now known as sepero [01:40] Is there a tool like spacemonger, that can give me a visual breakdown of what's consuming my free space?

[01:41] ain't that the truth [01:41] So I cleaned out like 8 GB... and it's shrinking, at like 100MB/s [01:42] sounds like a possible log file growing.. [01:42] somehow, it's down to 100MB now... again [01:42] check the users ~/.xsession-errors [01:42] bleachbit to the rescue [01:42] mine was 13gb ;) [01:43] Dr_Willis: upstart is not loading. [01:43] Dr_Willis: Nope, I don't even have that file [01:44] gdos: upstart is the primary system to load all services.. if upstart is not working you got deeper issues [01:44] Dr_Willis: everything is fine, except for the audio. [01:44] you asked how to disable services.. thats handled by upstart. [01:45] is there a Kubuntu channel?

[03:39] Hi, my daughter and I are new with Ubuntu 12.04. She's having trouble with her screen bleeding too far to the left, so that when she's online, she can't use any back or forward arrows at the top left. Is there a way to fix that? [03:40] Dr_Willis, I am trying to boot my system from disk in prestine condition everytime I boot the system. I think if the filesystem is in unionfs-fuse I should be able to do it. [03:40] Guest66934: how is her monitor connected? is it a tv? [03:41] rostam: that may take quiet a bit of hacking to make ubuntu work that way. [03:41] no, it's just a monitor hooked to her desktop with a blue cord. [03:41] rostam: the 'tiny core linux' disrto and to some degree puppylinux can allready work in a similer to how you described [03:41] Guest66934: HDMI? DVI? VGA> [03:41] question: I'm wondering if something exists that will allow me to serve certain files to people through a web interface [03:41] oh no not the blue cird [03:41] Guest66934: its possi ble the moniotr has some settings you can mess with [03:42] instead of haivng them learn how to use command line or SFTP capable tool [03:42] wilee-nilee, yes, I've reformatted the sdcard using sdcardformater. [03:42] Guest66934: tv's often have 'overscan' settings that ca n cause the edges of the display to be unseen [03:42] oh, I don't know how to do that, do you? [03:42] press buttons on the monitor. look for its memus [03:42] Dr_Willis, I need to use UBUNTU do you have any other suggestion how to do this. How about using snapshots? [03:43] rostam: not really. the Live-cd does a similer thing with the persistant save file, but it can have issues at times. [03:43] Dr_Willis, thanks [03:44] thamvmk_, Very little I could find on the net myself, so I really don't know an answer. I gave up on the aspire. [03:44] rostam: i seem to rcall some alternative filesystems having a similer 'restore' type feature as well. but i cant recall what ones [03:45] isnt 13.10 supposed to be out already? [03:46] I think they have a few days [03:46] wilee-nilee, Thanks for your support. Will probably try to perform a usb stick to boot older version of ubuntu like 10.04.

[05:03] <3 [05:03] my pleasure [05:03] g'night all \o [05:03] good night... middle of the afternoon here... [05:03] hey everyone - i'm trying to install ubuntu 12.04 on my acer laptop and i just finished burning the disk image onto a usb stick, which the laptop seems to be reading, but it's not taking me past a blank page with a blinking _ underscore. i'm able to type on this page, but i'm not sure what to do next. what's going on? [05:04] !nomodeset | jessica441 [05:04] jessica441: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [05:04] if you can even get a grub/boot menu. to tell it nomodeset. ;( [05:04] had issues with a pc last night. it dodent want to boot usb sticks that worked in other pcs [05:05] but it did boot from a cd/dvd. but never got it usb booting [05:05] jessica441: let us know how you go and we may be able to assist... [05:05] alright it looks like this is a pretty common problem, thanks guys! i'm reading this now, be back in a sec [05:05] * wilee-nilee glances up from watching the matrix [05:06] c00l! looks like you are on your way jessica441! [05:06] take the puce pill! [05:06] lol, I always take the red [05:09] okay so it looks like i'm supposed to be seeing a purple screen with a keyboard logo at the bottom, at which point i press any key. i'm not getting that - right before the blank screen with the _, i get a blank screen with a little gray rectangle in the bottom left hand corner. pressing any key doesn't do anything, but some F keys open unfamiliar terminals [05:10] jessica441: the usb is not booting corredctly, was made wrong, or has errors on it. or the system cant boot from the usb right [05:10] i should say, the laptop i'm trying to install this onto has no OS at all, so it's just, like, a BIOS or whatever interface [05:10] how old a laptop is it? what cpu? [05:10] it's an Acer Aspire One that I bought new this year [05:10] Do you have access to a DVD drive? [05:10] Nope, no DVD drive on the damn thing [05:11] how did you make the usb? [05:11] jessica441: so its a netbook then abuout a year old. [05:11] that should be able to boot from usb [05:11] I have another laptop I'm on here, which I downloaded the Ubuntu disk image onto, then put on a USB [05:11] Hi. I'm trying to watch a video on VLC and get the message "No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format "h264". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this." I tried Googling the issue, found some references to downloading the "ffmpeg" package, tried it, didn't work. I've only recently installed Ubuntu, so I lack any technical knowledge. Help, please. [05:11] How did you put it on the usb? what app did you use [05:11] And this other laptop DID have ubuntu on it at one time [05:11] So it's worked before [05:11] Anyway this laptop also runs ubuntu [05:12] UbuntuNoob5: is this some DRM protected video? where did it [05:12] come from [05:12] so i burned with the System Disk Creator or whatever they call the default tool for doing this on ubuntu [05:12] @UbuntuNoob5, you need all the codec packages you can get your hands on. [05:12] jessica441: you could try some of the other tools at the pendrivelinux site. or dd the iso file straight to usb [05:12] UbuntuNoob5, whats the media format? [05:12] jessica441: you can use this guide http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows [05:13] i saw that guide, i'm not on windows, so that didn't work for me [05:13] i got the USB made without too much trouble... [05:13] jessica441: test that usb out on your other machine. make sure it boots. [05:14] alright so be right back then i guess [05:15] jessica441: you can use this guide when you are on ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu [05:15] Dr_Willis, I have no idea how to tell that. dr_dissector, that's great, but do you have any advice on HOW to go about getting my hands on those? In a non-esoteric manner? wilee-nilee, in properties it says video codec "H.264 / AVC", audio "MPEG-4 AAC". [05:16] UbuntuNoob5, You have the restricted-extras installed? [05:17] UbuntuNoob5: vlc should be able to play h.264 avc/mpeg4. tried any other players yet with it? [05:17] yeah [05:18] well i used the method in their website http://cdemu.org/about/libmirage/ and i got this ( dh_install dh_install: libmirage9 missing files (usr/lib/*/lib*.so.*), aborting make: *** [binary] Error 255 dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2 ) [05:18] wilee-nilee, I've tried installing several different codec packages. One of them was labelled "restricted extras", yes. Dr_Willis, yes, I have tried. However, I have no experience with any video players on Ubuntu other than VLC, so perhaps you could suggest certain ones? [05:18] i need help on compiling libmirage anyone up for it [05:19] wilee-nilee, I just uninstalled and reinstalled "restricted-extras", I still get the same message. [05:19] well, this machine read it, and told me it requires a 64 bit CPU - this one is an i686 CPU, so that makes sense [05:20] and holy shit, now it's booting on the other machine inexplicably [05:20] let's see where this goes... [05:20] hmmm... it's an x-file.... [05:20] UbuntuNoob5: the default player is totem. [05:20] UbuntuNoob5: and im not sure that vlc even uses any of the codec packages. [05:21] UbuntuNoob5: theres also gnome-mplayer (mplayer) to test out [05:21] anyone knows what other squid monitoring tools besides sarg on ubuntu 12.04? [05:22] UbuntuNoob5: you can also try converting the file with avidemux, or arista, or handbreak, or winff, arista may be the easiest to get going [05:22] shyaam: best to talk in the channel not pm. Most of us in here Ignore Pm;s [05:22] Dr_Willis, I am now downloading mplayer, though I must be stupid, because I can't even find totem. I'll try converting it with arista first, thanks. [05:23] UbuntuNoob5: you are using Ubuntu with unity? I belive totem is the dedfault player [05:23] As I said, I must be stupid, because I can't even find totem. [05:23] Dr_Willis: don't know how to so got messed up [05:23] run the players from the command line to see all error messages [05:23] totem thevideofilename [05:24] totem is called "videos" in ubutu's dash. black and white icon [05:24] I think either player should work... [05:24] moppy, thanks, I didn't realize that. [05:24] shyaam1: hi [05:24] you just click the circlular logo at top left, type 'video' and you'll see it [05:24] unless its some weird DRM protection , or currupted file [05:25] this isent some classroom lecture video. or from some itunes/apple/comercial site is it? [05:26] shyaam1: hi [05:26] Dr_Willis: well i used the method in their website http://cdemu.org/about/libmirage/ and i got this ( dh_install dh_install: libmirage9 missing files (usr/lib/*/lib*.so.*), aborting make: *** [binary] Error 255 dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2 ) [05:28] !find libmirage [05:28] File libmirage found in banshee-extension-mirage [05:28] @ UbuntuNoob5, could be a silly question: did you do any post-installation configuration on your install? [05:28] If I did, I didn't intentionally. I know next to nothing about Ubuntu. [05:28] Or any of its programs. [05:28] shyaam: that error really dosent say much of anything other then 'missing files' and some wildcards.. [05:28] Hi guys. I'm connected to a guest internet connection right now. This basically means I have to go through a webpage to actually get the internet connection, but I can't ssh in terminal. I also noticed I can't sudo apt-get update either. [05:29] ping www.google.com works fine though. [05:29] i seem to recall someone else trying to get cdemu working a week or 2 ago.. I dont recall them ever getting it going. [05:29] Dr_Willis: can i send you the whoale screen [05:29] I dont even recall what cdemu did. but i think they had kernel module issues due to the newer kernel [05:29] shyaam: i dont develop or code. so i doubt if it will do much good. [05:30] hi all [05:30] shyaam: youmay want to check askubuntu.com to see if others have gotten cdemu working [05:30] Ok, here is a link for you: http://howtoubuntu.org/things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin#.Ul4kVLOixFw [05:30] I tried to use Arista on it. Was told that it's "Not a valid media file". :/ [05:30] Dr_Willis: do you have cdemu [05:30] I have upgraded my ubuntu to 12.04 and no internet connection after that [05:30] Basically, what I found is I needed to do a few of post-install work. [05:31] its ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS [05:31] I did not run script and I did not do medibuntu bit as I found it is dead [05:31] shyaam: i dont even know what cdemu does [05:31] deeps90: sudo service network-manager start ?? [05:31] shyaam: i recall someone else trying to get it going about 2 weeks ago. and they never did [05:32] why not [05:32] Dr_Willis: why not === hehe13123 is now known as heh1231 [05:32] n [05:32] they had kernel module errors as i mentioned earlier. [05:33] shyaam: check the channel logs perhaps. it may say more. [05:33] Dr_Willis, really dumb questions... Can I reinstall Ubuntu without wiping my massive porn collection--I mean, my hard drive? [05:33] Dr_Willis: how to do that [05:34] !logs [05:34] Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. [05:34] UbuntuNoob5: put your videos on a seperate hard drive or partition. [05:34] I see :/ [05:34] and thats the drive you keep... safe... somewhere where the wife wont find it.. [05:34] Well, I guess at this point, I might as well go back to Windows... I think I'm too stupid for Linux :'( [05:34] Hi guys. I'm connected to a guest internet connection right now. This basically means I have to go through a webpage to actually get the internet connection, but I can't ssh in terminal. I also noticed I can't sudo apt-get update either. [05:34] It's not actually porn, lol. [05:35] !logs [05:35] Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. [05:35] UbuntuNoob5: i HAVE seen DRM protected or even malware codec infected XXX (and other ) videos that would NOT play in vlc. [05:35] UbuntuNoob5: thats why i asked where the video came from. [05:36] Came from the TPB, where no one else seems to have had a problem playing it. [05:36] find some other h264/avc/whatever videos and see if they play. Use a youtube downloader extension/tool if you cant find any [05:36] Dr_Willis: from when to when should i see [05:36] I have rarely found a ideo file i cant play on Ubuntu with vlc or mplayer, or totem, exccept for a few rare drm protected ones [05:36] shyaam: try the last month perhaps? [05:37] I don't think I've ever found one VLC can't handle, either. [05:37] You dont actually need that much space for ubuntu. Fits in under 8 gig. Wont have to wipe the whole hard drive. [05:37] Dr_Willis: which date [05:37] UbuntuNoob5: and the vareious video converter tools will tell you if theres somthing fishy with the file perhaps [05:37] shyaam: No idea.. try 1800 to 2220 === Edgan____ is now known as Edgan [05:40] Accidentally closed it. Dr_Willis, the audio works just find, It's the video that doesn't. [05:40] What specific error messages am I looking for? [05:40] Hi guys. I'm connected to a guest internet connection right now. This basically means I have to go through a webpage to actually get the internet connection, but I can't ssh in terminal. I also noticed I can't sudo apt-get update either. [05:41] customer, The channel asked for at least a ten minute interval on reposts. [05:41] UbuntuNoob5: going to ask you a silly wuestion, is this a fully uipdated 13.04? they recently removed medibuntu and it broke my video player until the new repo was up [05:42] UbuntuNoob5: try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [05:42] that may help (maybe...) [05:43] moppy, no. I only have 12.04. dr_dissector, we went over that one, thanks, but it had no different effect. [05:43] the plymouth theme takes it's config files from /lib/plymouth /themes ? === jalcine is now known as jalcine_ [05:44] UbuntuNoob5: any reason for staying on 12.04? it ill upgrade in place, no need to reinstall [05:45] moppy... Sheer ignorance and stupidity? My experience with Ubuntu consists of "Goddamit, I hate Windows 8! What, you want me to pay you 250 dollars to downgrade back to 7? No thanks..." And that's it. [05:46] moppy: my 12.04 plays all the files just fine. [05:46] I torrent occasionally, I watch tv and movies occasionally, I type a book on it. That's all I use my computer for. [05:46] so it is just this one video you can't play? [05:46] Yes. [05:46] This one series of videos, all within the same group. It's the first time I've ever encountered it. [05:46] /usr/local/games/Bastion force_s3tc_enable=true ./Bastion.bin.x86 <= any idea why this icon wont work as a shortcut [05:47] UbuntuNoob5: same here. I found a few issues accessing SMB shares with 13.04. I downgraded to 12.04 [05:47] <^Phantom^> UbuntuNoob5, you did the right thing ditching windows 8 [05:47] but if I type force_s3tc_enable=true ./Bastion.bin.x86 in terminal the attribute is applied [05:47] and it launches [05:47] i assume that same file works in windows? [05:47] I'm trying to just create an icon [05:47] If we assume it's a DRM issue, how might I find a way to go around/through/over/demolish that? Not saying I WOULD... But, were there a program, what might it be? === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine [05:48] DRM needs to die anyway [05:48] Hi guys. I'm connected to a guest internet connection right now. This basically means I have to go through a webpage to actually get the internet connection, but I can't ssh in terminal. I also noticed I can't sudo apt-get update either. [05:48] UbuntuNoob5: could the file be damaged in any way? [05:48] the tools like handbreak may mentoion if its got some weird DRM [05:48] i would like you to check the file plays in windows [05:49] dr_dissector, there is no comment on the source site of anyone having had an issue with them. [05:49] moppy, I'm actually working on finding that out, myself ;) [05:49] if you try to play it in windows.. and it trys to get you to load some codec... be warey. [05:49] Cool, let us know, we will see after that [05:49] hellow? [05:50] anyone know how to create a usable icon rofl [05:50] /usr/local/games/Bastion force_s3tc_enable=true ./Bastion.bin.x86 only launches in terminal with the attiribute attached [05:50] UbuntuNoob5: people on the source site may be using Windows [05:50] may? :-) [05:50] anyone have some spare time to out me out with a problem on ubuntu? [05:50] help* [05:50] let me rephrase - definitely use! [05:50] do you think its possible to install ubuntu on Acer Aspire P3 (i5 processor, SSD), its an ultrabook tablet [05:51] Romance: It's powerful enough, you would have to check web for compatibilty however.

[08:34] on windows i did always need some browser plugins or other application but i could guess there is a more easy general way since the stream already gets viewd on this machine i could easy rename a cache file or else? [08:34] or maybe even wget? [08:34] what kind of stream? [08:34] mms, rtsp? [08:35] I need some help guys [08:36] I need some source.list Ubuntu 12.04.3 code I cannot make update or installing any program from (terminal command line ) [08:38] bluechaos: Just create one with this... http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ [08:39] flam_: good question i don't know the real type of it [08:39] i am not familary with it [08:40] me eather .... [08:40] so it depends on the type of stream hmmmm oki most are divx videos or flash so there is no general way? [08:40] ah bluechaos don't meand you [08:40] if you broken your 12.04 [08:41] maybe simply "do-release-upgrade -d" [08:41] hey, does anyone know if the new/upcoming lenovo yoga 2 pro or sony fit multi-flip are supported by ubuntu? [08:42] thats how i repair my old broken linux always :D simply next version lol you will be amazed how much that helps even when there are for sure some bugs sometimes generaly it works great [08:42] bluechaos: OK. Let's check that. Open a terminal and try to update the sources with 'sudo apt-get update'. Is that working? [08:42] solrs they are [08:42] minimec [08:42] I find this [08:42] but I'm not using [08:42] solars it depends most on ram and cpu if hardware is supported [08:43] ubuntu tweak [08:43] Ubuntu Tweak (Source) - http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ [08:43] ## Run this command: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 0624A220 [08:43] deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/tualatrix/ubuntu precise main [08:43] bluechaos: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[09:00] metaphysician, [09:00] I'm newbie some example please [09:00] bluechaos: see the sources.list that I linked [09:01] bluechaos: No I am not. I did an error on that repo list. I did not choose a release! What version of Ubuntu are you using? [09:01] 12.04.03 [09:01] bluechaos: Ok. thax.

I don`t need server version [09:05] ActionParsnip: thanks for the reply, but the real question was why free says that my shared memory is zero when top lists some amount of shared memory for each process? [09:06] bluechaos: server/desktop repositories are the same. [09:07] metaphysician, [09:08] How do I get python3.3-dev for percise?

[09:14] djanitor: if you use network manager, try nmcli dev list iface eth0 | grep DNS [09:14] bluechaos: no problem [09:14] Rory: It only says it is dynamically generated by resolvconf(8), do not edit this file...., nameserver 127.0.0.1, I am expecting it should display the OpenDNS IP addresses in this file [09:15] djanitor: if you use network manager, try nmcli dev list iface eth0 | grep DNS [09:15] djanitor: replace eth0 as appropriate [09:15] Rory: wonderful, thank you very much! [09:15] ciao a tutti [09:15] I noticed that the Wiki mentions that Ubuntu 14.04 LTS would have only Python 3 (no Python 2) included. [09:16] Is there a chance the Ubuntu community needs help for creating Python 3 applications? I'm not sure of where to look. [09:17] snowyrooftops ask in #ubuntu-dev maybe?

[09:18] #ubuntu+1 maybe [09:18] There's #ubuntuusers and #ubuntu, so I thought since the *users is for users, the #ubuntu may be where some of the developers are. [09:19] snowyrooftops its #ubuntu-devel [09:19] metaphysician, minimec if I have a no-ip adress can I set it up on my ubuntu ? [09:19] hitsujiTMO: Thanks!

[10:16] sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin [10:16] funkt: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Phpmyadmin_and_mysql-workbench [10:16] * ActionParsnip hates phpmyadmin [10:16] funkt: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP is the basic intro guide [10:17] Cheers seems to be a big conflict with xampp now [10:18] Ill try that stack that you mentioned [10:18] funkt: check port numbers for conflicts [10:18] thanks for all the help [10:18] funkt: or just learn how to manage a server in CLI, more secure [10:18] I have no idea what that means [10:19] used to just run xampp load the website job done [10:19] funkt: instaad of phpmyadmin, learn server management properly [10:19] I don't think i need too [10:19] funkt: it will mean your skills will transfer between OSes [10:19] I dont have the time or the interest just want it to work and get on with it [10:19] My computer's hacked, what do I do? [10:19] sleepie^: reinstall [10:19] unplug it from the internet [10:19] hmm does anyone know how to update the corner clock in xubuntu? [10:19] thanks for your help [10:19] its 2 hours off [10:19] I think my ISO's area no good. [10:20] i wanna no the path of some file [10:20] sleepie^: you mcan MD5 test them but if you have been hacked then you cannot trust anything you see [10:20] I've got a problem with webapps in firefox and chromium. They won't install and Firefox is missing the setting in preferences. I've reset the dconf and still nothing. [10:21] pat the command 'date' allows you to set the date and time [10:21] ActionParsnip: That's kinda what I figured, say I got several md5's from various locations and it checked out good, and still I'm hacked. [10:21] SlvrYeti: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc [10:21] raring [10:21] sleepie^: what do you mean 'hacked'? [10:21] SlvrYeti: didnt think chromium did webapps like firefox does.. [10:22] If you get the extension it does :) [10:22] unity-chromium-extension [10:22] ActionParsnip: Some hacker(s) mess with me a lot. [10:22] SlvrYeti: i see. the web apps are just packages in software centre. [10:22] I'm after the GMail one [10:22] sleepie^, hack them back [10:22] sleepie^: doesnt explain what you mean by hacked [10:22] !details | sleepie^ [10:22] sleepie^: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [10:23] hitsujiTMO: hmmm, is there a way to just up it by 2 hours? [10:23] output is kinda confusing [10:23] BuzZBladE: Kinda hard to do when you're trying to hack with the computer they hacked. [10:23] pat: sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com [10:24] Where does it setup preferences for programs installed via the software center? I wish to clear the Firefox profile and the Chromium user settings. [10:24] ActionParsnip: it ran but didnt fix my time? What the :| [10:24] By hacked I mean someone(s) else has control over it, often times I'm seeing the same image link on like every page I visit, my songs change, dir's improperly name themselves, all kinds of stuff. [10:24] in ufw what is the syntax to allow a port on a specific IP (the server has multiple IPs and I only want to allow pptpd to be accessible to the internet on one ip)? [10:24] rkhunter detects suckit rootkit perhaps that's a better explanation. [10:24] ActionParsnip: still seems to think i'm 6:24pm instead of 8:24pm for some odd reason [10:24] pat: is your system on the correct timezone? [10:25] hitsujiTMO: yeah [10:25] Is it possible to root jail only php scripts and not all of apache? [10:25] pat: are you set in the right timezone? [10:25] Braden`: I'd ask in #php [10:25] hmm, i thought i confirmed that. let me dive into the settings [10:25] ok [10:25] Hmm, so I have suckit rootkit, what do I do? [10:25] sleepie^: reinstall is the only real fix [10:25] ActionParsnip, do you work for Ubuntu? I've never been in this channel and not seen you here, for the many years I've used it. [10:25] pat: what timezone are you in and what is the outout of date: [10:26] JediMaster: I hang in here while I'm idle-ish at work [10:26] ActionParsnip, you must be idle-ish quite a lot ;-) Not that I'm complaining, you do a great job of helping people [10:26] ActionParsnip: But the problem is whoever's responsible for the attack found a vulnerability that obviously will be there after reinstalling, not to mention the IP address is hardly dynamic. [10:27] hitsujiTMO: according to the Calendar, im in the correct timezone, Brisbane, Australia, output of date is: Wed Oct 16 06:26:41 EDT 2013 [10:27] sleepie^: you have no way of knowing what binaries and such are affected [10:28] JediMaster: I try [10:28] sleepie^, have you did an update, upgrade, and reboot since installing [10:28] ActionParsnip: Good point, suckit rootkit may be an intended false positive by the attacker. [10:28] BuzZBladE: I'm using a liveCD right now.

[11:06] hi [11:07] where? [11:08] duoduo: where what [11:09] I'm getting some errors everytime I try and auto-update my ubuntu (13.04). They specifically relate to the update of "qt4". I've uploaded a pastebin here, with all the response/errors apt-get upgrade threw back: http://pastebin.com/Rt3D0FG0 [11:10] codephobic: can you try: sudo apt-get clean [11:11] no [11:11] hitsujiTMO, I just executed that command, do I retry the apt-get upgrade command now? [11:11] yes [11:12] hitsujiTMO, seems to be working (so far). It's definitely downloading the upgrade, rather than halting :) [11:13] did that command clean the "cache" of previous upgrades? [11:13] yes [11:13] ah [11:13] no [11:13] cool [11:13] hitsujiTMO, thanks! it worked :D [11:13] no [11:14] I usually issue a "upgradesystem" command, which is an alias for apt-get update && apt-get upgrade. [11:14] do you think it's worth adding on apt-get clean to that chain? [11:15] at the least it should save me some disk space, when it cleans out unnecessary install files... [11:15] no [11:16] no no no [11:16] duoduo: This is a support channel for the UBuntu operating system, if you have a support question, you are welcome to ask it here [11:17] thank you [11:17] interesting question (for me at least) .... I would like to find all the files save on my computer between 01/10/2013 and 05/10/2013 .... can I do that from the CLI???? [11:17] eeos: man find [11:18] Ben64: yes, just finished reading it, and did not udnerstand how to do it. [11:18] codephobic: i'd usually just manually run apt-get clean ... there are times where you might want to copy out the cache to install them on another system that has no internet access [11:19] ah, ok I'll just keep a note of that command. [11:19] eeos: look at the ctime, mtime sections [11:20] Ben64: just done .... I do not udnerstand how to stop it from searching files after the 05/10/2013 [11:21] eeos: use two times in the command, a min and a max [11:21] Ben64: How? I do not think you can do that .... [11:21] you totally can [11:22] Hello, aynone with experience in fluentd? [11:23] BrixSat just state the problem, rather than ask if someone has experience with a specific package [11:24] ? [11:24] duoduo: yes? [11:24] Ben64: how???? I have been using find for a long time, and do not really know how to do it .... oh, I see what you mean, you use it as a logical product .... [11:25] Ben64: like -mtime +6 -mtime -10 [11:25] Ben64: would that work? [11:25] easy way to find out [11:27] Ben64: but I need to use start date and end date .... mmmm .... I just founda a way! [11:27] Ben64: and found the ***** file. Thanks a lot! [11:27] ? [11:28] /wc [11:29] is it possible to force tls 1.2 in chromium? [11:29] Ben64: I just touched two files with the start and end date and then I used "-newer startfile ! -newer endfile" .... worked a treat! Thanks to http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/programming-9/using-find-to-locate-files-created-between-certain-dates-343569/ [11:33] leeshaste: tls is configured on the server you are connecting to. not in the client. [11:34] Howdy folks [11:46] Hi there would anyone know the directory where all the databases are kept on a local lamp server? [11:46] or is there even such a thing? [11:47] funkt: You probably don't want to touch the directory/files directly. [11:47] I want to keep a backup of them through deja [11:47] I lost all my dbs on the last reinstall and want to add the directory [11:48] do you know where I can find the directory location? [11:48] I've followed this guide http://www.techytalk.info/manage-gsm-mobile-broadband-connections-without-network-manager-ubuntu-mint-debian/ but sudo pon does nothing.

[11:53] and https://juju.ubuntu.com/ [11:54] Wow thanks , let me check the link now [11:54] Have heard a lot about Juju and MAAS's compatibility with OpenStack. Haven't tried the architecture myself though. [11:54] babinlonston, no you cant check that link its forbidden [11:55] ok [11:55] this is same as Cluster computers ? [11:55] I wanted to install pyside, im on ubuntu 12.04 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/pyside does this suggest that I should be able to find it in the repo? [11:56] bdeluca_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all§ion=all&arch=any&keywords=pyside&searchon=names [11:57] minimec, thanking you [11:57] babinlonston: You can think of it as Cloud based. If I am not wrong cluster computers are the ones internally connected over LAN, at least that's what they are mainly thought of. [11:58] aki_learn: got it buddy .. thanks for you valuable info's [11:58] hitsujiTMO [11:58] Hi ... I am currently using 13.04 and I now see support ends in two months, which release should I update too? [11:59] bdeluca_: I guess python-pyside or pyside-tools will probably install the needed packages. [11:59] babinlonston: :) [11:59] CiSense: 13.10 when it comes out [11:59] ta Ben64 [11:59] CiSense, 13.10 scheduled for the 17th of this month [11:59] minimec, I did run apt-cache search minimec, but I didnt find any thing, but some thing appears to be wrong with my apt-get proxy [11:59] In other words, it's out tomorrow. [11:59] bluechaos [12:00] Ben64, cool, two days is better than two months [12:00] CiSense: you can only upgrade to 13.10, as it is the next relase and 13.04 is not LTS [12:00] can wee talk in private ? [12:00] yes [12:00] CiSense: you could start it now and get in before the servers get slammed [12:00] I hope it doesn't mess up my dual-boot. I've had the grub loader lose the windows selection after an upgrade before. [12:00] bdeluca_: all these packages are in the 'universe' repository. Is 'universe/multiverse' activated for your installation? === Guest41738 is now known as azteck [12:01] minimec, yes, my apt-cacher-ng was broken, restart and I can find and install things again [12:02] if i install ubuntu into a dual boot will i need to run the windows repair to fix the mbr? i don't have a dvdrom or a flash drive on me [12:02] BuzZBladE: why would you need to fix the mbr? [12:02] BuzZBladE: the Ubuntu installer will install Grub which will be the bootloader and load both OSes as needed [12:03] win7 is already loaded, and that's kind of what i am asking too [12:03] BuzZBladE: you can resize the NTFS in Windows7, then install Ubuntu to the freed space [12:03] ActionParsnip, i have an empty 64gb ssd i want to put the ubuntu on [12:04] BuzZBladE: then that's fine, why would you need to fix the mbr? [12:04] no dvd or flash, i was thinking of cloning an iso of a virtual box onto the ssd :I [12:04] Ben64, is that ubuntu-13.10-beta2-desktop-i386.iso ? [12:04] BuzZBladE: you can use dd to clone an OS [12:04] BuzZBladE: or rsync [12:05] BuzZBladE: Do not be a hamster. Mount the ISO in Windows and use the "CD boot helper". It copies the installation data to your HD and then adds that to the Windows boot menu. [12:05] BuzZBladE: Then you can run the Ubuntu installer from there. [12:06] so after i start the install i can reboot and finish the install onto the clean drive with only hard drive access? [12:06] Is of their WUBI replacement, ships since 12.04 on the ISO, still dubbed "wubi.exe" though for whatever reason. [12:06] BuzZBladE: Yep [12:06] theadmin, that sounds too easy [12:07] BuzZBladE: It is. That's the Ubuntu way. Everything is too easy here ;) [12:09] Hello, I am trying to set up cyrus with auxprop and sasldb plugin but all I get is auth failure can someone help me? [12:09] theadmin: Quote worthy piece of prose there. [12:09] HisaoNakai: Sorry? [12:10] Uhm, nvm ^^ [12:13] Okays. [12:17] how do I upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10? [12:18] CiSense, best way is to wait for 13.10 to be released, download and clean install [12:18] CiSense: sudo do-release-upgrade -d [12:18] oooh I have a choice ! [12:19] the best way and the fast way .. what's the difference? [12:19] CiSense, clean install; fewer issues. upgrade ... doesn't always fly. [12:19] CiSense: there is no single best way [12:20] cfhowlett, should I use ubuntu-13.10-beta2-desktop-i386.iso ? [12:21] guys, how can I do a recursive chmod only on directories not on files? [12:21] sure if you feel like beta testing and risking your working install. Otherwise wait for the release! patience is a virtue.

[12:24] haven't been on IRC in 10 years [12:24] sure [12:24] Wiz_KeeD: find is the last command you will ever need :) [12:24] i'm confused [12:24] waykool99: welcome back [12:24] Wiz_KeeD: yes, a command [12:25] thank you :) [12:25] cfhowlett: https://www.google.com/images?q=cool%20blue%20us%20wallpaper&sout=1 :p [12:25] can't i just do chmod g+rwx topdir -R -type d ? [12:25] howdy to the lovely and vivacious NSA [12:25] Wiz_KeeD: I don't believe -type is a param for chmod [12:25] :( [12:25] damn [12:25] i got a sony laptop with a dvd drive that can only read cds in windows but can't read nothing in ubuntu or any linux [12:27] arshavin: it can't read DVDs in Windows? [12:27] That doesn't sound like a DVD drive :D [12:27] anyone remembers, few days ago, i was begging for an ISO file of Ubuntu Studio v10.04.3 LTS 64 bit. don't know how.... but found 10.04.4 Alternative 64 bit [12:27] reisio: it cant read dvds in windows but it can read neither cds nor dvds in ubuntu or any linux [12:28] reisio: it can read cds in windows [12:28] waykool99: 10.04 is not supported anymore. Use at your own risk. [12:28] arshavin: sounds broken, then [12:29] -and- i learned something - my 5 computers are Dell towers 5-15 years old. No wonder Xfce and Unity run like crap. [12:29] reisio: i've tried different linux distros none of them work [12:29] arshavin: sounds broken, then [12:29] waykool99: Uh. Give Lubuntu a spin. [12:29] waykool99, actually xfce should run halfway decent ... [12:29] 15 is rough [12:29] Lubuntu??? never seen it [12:29] 5 should be no problem [12:29] reisio: wonder how it works on ubuntu [12:30] !lubuntu|waykool99, [12:30] waykool99,: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [12:30] waykool99: Uses LXDE. Extremely lightweight desktop, basically openbox with a few panels. [12:30] reisio: sorry windows [12:30] my oldest PC runs 32 bit only [12:30] no S***?? [12:30] wow [12:30] waykool99: ...Well, all Ubuntu versions come in both 32- and 64-bit flavours.

I can see PIN provides RTN_Name() function, which would return the function name, but surely that's no enough… so what else do you use?

Ubottu needs updating [12:47] maybe [12:47] i would probably spray the dvd-drive with compressed air on the laser [12:48] Touhou11, cuz about 100 folks a day come here seeking warez, almost always from Italy for some odd reason ... [12:48] <^Phantom^> Touhou11, in warez chans, !list usually broadcasts a list of software to a user [12:48] <^Phantom^> most, if not all, illegal [12:48] <^Phantom^> but you don't need warez in linux [12:48] when i put cds in the tray on ubuntu it mounts and i can browse the files but when i try to copy them to hard disk or play if its a video disk i get errors [12:48] ^Phantom^: there is warez in Linux though :) [12:49] how do you get an up to date chromium in ubuntu?

It's lost most of the unique features it previously had [13:37] gp5st: have you tried sudo dpkg --configure -a or sudo apt-get install -f [13:38] Touhou11, yeah. just wanted to test it out anyway. [13:39] hey guys, i have upgraded to ubuntu 12.04, and now my ubuntu gateway server has problems with dns.. the clients have no internet connection [13:40] philinux: Just did. They give the same errors [13:40] gp5st: how about disable any ppa's temporarily [13:42] philinux: I don't have any. http://pastebin.com/5c9XbsTu is my /etc/apt/sources.list sources.list.d is empty [13:44] hi, i've installed 12.04.3 Kernel . But now after restart the border for windows are disappeard. [13:44] i've tryed dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org, bot got: [13:45] xserver is not installed or broken [13:45] I use kubuntu [13:46] gp5st: does dist-upgrade give same errors [13:46] philinux: uppers [13:47] gp5st: ???

I am trying to set up two monitors, both monitors work on their own without an xorg.conf file. When I add the xorg.conf file X fails to start but both monitors are active one with terminal the other with just a black screen (but active) and both monitors display the shutdown sequence. In this paste is: lspci, sudo lshw -c video, and my org.conf file. was hoping someone could see what I am missing since this i [13:48] s the first time I have tried this. I have written the xorg.conf file to be what I believe to be the minimum required. [13:49] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6245678/ [13:49] is it possible to see a history of package updates? I'm running 13.10 and some update over the weekend broke my desktop. [13:49] gp5st: uppers? dunno what that means [13:49] philinux: sorry missed a letter. yeah dist-upgrade does the same thing [13:50] gp5st: any idea when or how this started [13:51] philinux: i did an apt-get upgrade today after neglecting it for ...oh..6months? [13:51] removed a lot of things like mysql and apache first (it's a small vm and I don't need them anymore) [13:51] somebody has a hint for me [13:52] gp5st: any important data. If a vm I'd reinstall it [13:53] philinux: nothing i couldn't re-do in an hour or so. i just have no idea how i got here [13:53] gp5st: you may have removed something important. hard to trace that [13:54] gp5st: you could spend a lot less time reinstalling it [13:54] yeah.. i just uninstalled apache2 and mysql..those shouldn't be important:( [13:56] gp5st: you could try reinstalling those packages on the end of the error list you pastebined. sudo apt-get install --reinstall nameofpackage [13:57] thank you so much.

[14:02] well, at least i think so... [14:03] i think i ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or something like that [14:04] paulens12: Tried deleting Xorg.conf? sudo rm -vf /etc/X11/xorg.conf [14:04] given I have a directory "dir1" and a directory "dir2". I create a symlink with ln -s dir1 link. How can i switch the symlink "link" from dir1 to dir2? ln -s -f dir2 link creates a new symlink inside dir1 :/ [14:04] jpds: yeah it said file doesn't exist [14:05] paulens12, try sudo service lightdm restart after you did the dpkg-reconfigure [14:05] ansu, delete the link, move the original then recreate the link the other way around? [14:05] krux: shouldn't dpkg-reconfigure return any success message? [14:06] chrisward: shouldn't it be possible to switch the link, without deleting it? [14:07] paulens12, can't recall right now.. but normally on a terminal no output means good.. [14:07] well, you could do it in a series of mv commands... I dunno how you'd do it otherwise [14:07] anything that is not good will spit with an error.. or warning..

[14:38] philinux: but now will it work on the other computer with different video card? [14:38] paulens12: no idea [14:38] Hey everyone, I have this annoying problem that only seems to get worse for every minute. First, I had no sound in Skype. I solved that by closing Skype, killing all pulseaudio and opening Skype again. Then, I started DotA 2(Steam game), and I had no audio there. So now I had audio in Skype, but not my game. [14:38] philinux: damn :( i really need it to work on the other pc... it's not as important for this one.. [14:38] Then Skype crashed, and my audio disappeared [14:38] paulens12: see the man page setsid [14:39] And now I have no audio whatsoever, and I can't solve it. [14:39] paulens12: one can but try [14:39] paulens12: dont mess with compiz settings [14:39] philinux: but i guess it should work with the default video drivers? [14:39] ActionParsnip - actually, i take that back. 13.10 is installed, but if i use the newer kernel it has terrible video probs. [14:39] paulens12: yep [14:39] philinux: i didn't, lol [14:39] Okay, so now apparently my sound works in Firefox (listening to music), but sound testing left and right doesn't work at all. What the hell. [14:40] philinux: i didn't touch the settings... that happened when i booted up the other pc with wrong graphics drivers.. and then deleted the driver [14:40] paulens12: ah ok [14:41] geirha: philinux How can I get a estimate of time before I start? [14:42] Hi, [14:42] I need to change the default email address for Craig Donegan, basically when he was setup on the system I was given the surname Donagen but a few weeks after he started we relaised the a and e were the wrong way round. I ammened his AD object ok and I.ve added craig.donegan@ as an alias. I wanted to change his properties to make the correct name his main default address but the .Set As Reply. option is greyed out: [14:42] [14:42] Kind regards [14:42] teff: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:42] [14:42] Graham Voice [14:43] sorry wrong mouse button === anonwraith799 is now known as HankMccoy [14:43] How can I get a time estimate with dd randomizing? [14:44] Yowl: from a net search http://superuser.com/questions/262056/how-long-to-zero-a-drive-with-dd [14:44] I have an IRC question... [14:44] Yowl: have a search yourself there's quite a bit out there [14:45] how can an OP tag you other than MAC address or IP to tie me to a kick or ban? [14:45] HankMccoy: Thats not really on-topic for this channel, try asking in #freenode [14:45] ok thanks Pici [14:46] philinux: Nothing in that link about how to get a time estimate from the system [14:46] so the default graphics driver is called: X.Org X server - Nouveau display driver from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (open source)? [14:46] Yowl: Thats because there is no way to get an exact time estimate. [14:47] Yowl: it does say "it depends" [14:47] Yowl: last time i did a zero in a 250 gig drive it took hours [14:47] Yowl: If the source for random data is /dev/random, it will take a very very long time [14:48] philinux: I am talking about a estimation made by the system, not by me knowing the factors [14:48] Yowl: dd is not that clever [14:48] well it is but not if you get my drift [14:48] Is there a better program then dd for randomizing? [14:48] I don't get your drift [14:49] Yowl: why not just use zero [14:49] Yowl: shred [14:49] geirha: ? [14:49] Yowl: man shred [14:49] Yowl: are you disposing of the drive [14:50] philinux: Because its for encrypting, I am told I should randomize the space before using it. If I wrote zeroes to it, that would defeat the point [14:50] Hello [14:51] philinux: It's already virgin blank [14:51] Could any one tell me if is there any method to determine sata speed capability other than checking /var/log/messages or dmesg ? [14:51] i have installed 12.04.3 new kernel. Now i can't login anymore in X [14:51] Yowl: Anyway, what does the dd command you ran look like? [14:52] geirha: I haven't run it yet, but I was told dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdXN [14:52] geirha: Shred puts random data on a drive? [14:54] Yowl: yes, it writes random data several times, to make it harder to retrieve whatever was stored there before [14:55] geirha: And can be used on blank/empty space? How is it better then dd? [14:56] Yowl: http://superuser.com/questions/418298/why-is-gnu-shred-faster-than-dd-when-filling-a-drive-with-random-data [14:56] Yowl: I mentioned shred because I assumed that was the goal; however, shred could be used for this too by telling it to only write once, and it will also show progress with the -v option [14:58] hi [14:58] hey === galoise is now known as gorgonzola [14:59] how can I install my printer? it's canon mp235 [14:59] Yowl: you can use dban too [14:59] TauNeutrino: did you check the canon europe site for drivers? [14:59] Yowl: I don't get it: Why do you want to not write zeroes on the drive if the contents are encrypted? You'll have encrypted data + zeroes [14:59] Yowl: Are you encrypting the block device (using LVM for instance)? [15:00] CatKiller: The point is to randomize virgin blank HDD space for say LUKS or Truecrypt to encrypt afterwards. Nothing is encrypted or even there right now. [15:01] Yowl: Why randomizing it? What's the added benefit [15:01] -.- [15:01] CatKiller: Disguising the encrypted data within, hiding a tree in a forest [15:01] I looked at this http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Canon-Drucker but there is no mp235 [15:01] Yowl: If you create a 15GB TC volume you'll already have 15GB of random data on your disk [15:02] Yowl: Security through obscurity I see [15:02] Yowl: In your 15G TC volume [15:02] Yowl useless, your MBR will show the start and end of your encrypted partition [15:02] TauNeutrino: http://www.canon.co.uk/Support/Consumer_Products/products/Fax__Multifunctionals/InkJet/PIXMA_MP_series/PIXMA_MP230.aspx [15:02] Yowl: Any files will already be "hidden in the forest" [15:02] CatKiller: I don't believe that a freshly made partition out of HDD space never used before is made of random data, got anything to back that up? [15:03] Yowl: Why would it need to be? [15:03] Yowl: Have your truecrypt data + zeroes [15:03] perfectly safe [15:03] OerHeks: Why does it matter if anything knows where a partition starts and end? [15:03] as safe as having truecrypt data + random crap [15:04] Yowl, if not, you would not be able to mount that partition. [15:04] CatKiller: Others who specialize more in encryption disagree with you [15:04] Yowl: the system is binary, 1s and 0s [15:04] Yowl: Do you have anything to back this up? This is actually interesting [15:04] ah wait, thank you ActionParsnip, I'll look :) [15:04] Yowl: so it will be full of randomly spaced 1s and 0s, which is data [15:04] OerHeks: I didn't say you were wrong, I asked WHY WOULD IT MATTER? [15:04] Yowl: even all 0s is a form of data [15:05] Yowl: Also, since you'd be using a different random generator than the TC volume it would probably be easy enough to detect what was generated by TC and what was generated by urandom [15:05] ActionParsnip: And even a blank canvas is a picture to some people. Are you aiming for any particular point? [15:05] ActionParsnip, do you have any idea how to set routes on a pptpd server to be passed to the clients? [15:05] Yowl: when you make a partition, you only change the FAT, the data area is unchanged so the previous files data is still present [15:06] CatKiller: Sounds like a assumption === Guest36297 is now known as JediMaster [15:06] Guest36297: never had to set that, sorry [15:06] ActionParsnip: Yeah, and there is no previous data [15:06] Yowl: Like your assumption that it's safer [15:06] Yowl: there must be some form of data, like I said earlier [15:06] you still haven't given any reference ;) [15:06] Maybe I think I know what you mean [15:06] ActionParsnip, oops, the vpn must have disconnected me earlier, heh, ok, thanks, I'll keep digging around [15:06] a million zeros can hold an encrypted document. hypothetical [15:06] Yowl: you want to "hide" a TrueCrypt volume at a random offset on the drive [15:06] ActionParsnip: Brand new HDD do not come with data on them. and your statement of 0's is data is meaningless [15:07] Yowl: have you got the link which says it needs to be randomized? [15:07] CatKiller: no, I want to encrypt a partition, but first randomize it's virgin space [15:07] Yowl: You really don't understand how it works I think [15:07] Yowl: If you encrypt a volume [15:07] Yowl: you can dd the 'data' to a file from drive to a file, there is data to be read as there is data. It's all 0s but its still data [15:08] the entire volume will be random [15:08] philinux: Advice from multiple people in a channel dedicated to encryption, so no, I got no link to show you [15:08] within it there will be some data [15:08] hello [15:08] i.e. create a 15G TrueCrypt filesystem [15:08] write a 1K file to it [15:08] the filesystem is actually 15G [15:08] even though you are only using 1K [15:08] it's 15G of random data [15:08] Yowl: dd will read an input source as long as there is data to be read, the drive may have 0s but dd will still read the data. There is data. [15:09] Yowl: if there was no data to read, dd would stop [15:09] oh god, can you help me which one I should download?? [15:09] http://www.canon.co.uk/Support/Consumer_Products/products/Fax__Multifunctionals/InkJet/PIXMA_MP_series/PIXMA_MP230.aspx [15:09] how do I "lie" to apt about a dependency being satisfied when it is not ? I just got fed up with update-notifier and since then, aptitude won't install anything until I've solved that [15:09] from this [15:09] ActionParsnip: Why does it matter if you call all 0's data or not? It's not a issue of nomenclature but of data security. [15:09] Yowl: And I back this up directly from the TrueCrypt website: http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/plausible-deniability [15:09] DX099: post the errors [15:10] TauNeutrino: MP230 series IJ Printer Driver Ver. 3.80 for Linux (debian Packagearchive) [15:10] Yowl: if you write 0s to a drive from start to finish, the data is gone [15:10] Yowl: why so paranoid? [15:10] !info equivs | DX099 [15:10] DX099: equivs (source: equivs): Circumvent Debian package dependencies. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.0.9 (raring), package size 18 kB, installed size 85 kB [15:10] ActionParsnip: As I have explained multiple times, I am not trying to delete data in the first place! [15:11] DX099: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc [15:11] ActionParsnip, [15:11] Yowl: Just read the documentation from TrueCrypt [15:11] they explain exactly what you're asking [15:11] Yowl: then why are you discussing data seurity and empty drives if you dont want to wipe it? [15:11] ActionParsnip: I am trying to create a encrypted partition space, of which it was recommended it be randomized first [15:11] namely that simply *creating* the volume will fill your partition with random data [15:11] Yowl: why randomised first? [15:11] so there's no need to randomize anything since it will get overwritten [15:12] You can, it'll just be a waste of time [15:12] hi [15:12] dd if=/dev/urandom of=/your/partition bs=1M [15:12] and wait a LONG time for it to complete [15:12] since urandom is *slow* [15:12] Yowl: the new files created will be encrypted, so not readable without knowledge of the decryption method etc [15:12] you're probably better off doing the same thing with TC to be honest [15:12] philinux, "Following packages have unmet dependencies, update-manager, ubuntu-desktop" [15:12] loads of people use TC to wipe drive [15:12] ActionParsnip, "raring" [15:12] since it writes random data all over [15:13] ActionParsnip: Because it hides the encrypted data among the randomization. If there is only encrypted data and blank space, you know exactly where the encrypted data is. For more particulars, talk to the crypto people who recommend I do this [15:13] DX099: ok, run: sudo apt-get --reinstall install update-manager ubuntu-desktop [15:13] DX099: use http://pastie.org to host the output (or similar) [15:13] Yowl: You must have put me on /ignore [15:13] can someone help me install firmware-b43 for my broadcom BCM4312 i've read ubuntu has problems with this wifi card [15:13] because I'm explaining exactly why this is not working as you think it is [15:14] basing this on the *truecrypt docs* [15:14] but heh [15:14] and in any case [15:14] Yowl: but the data space is not blank, so there will be a melee of 1s and 0s, the data is not obvious. [15:14] I did give you the solution for your random data [15:14] ActionParsnip, I just got fed up with update-notifier. I think the admin gave me the right tool with equivs [15:14] CatKiller: No, not ignoring you. But theres alot of conversation here. And other people who disagree with you [15:14] DX099: why are you using aptitude? [15:14] Yowl: I think you are being far too paranoid [15:14] and lastly, if you're worried about uber crypto but you don't know how to write random data to a disk maybe you will fail somewhere [15:15] ActionParsnip: Are you saying brand new hard drives come with random 1's and 0's already on them? === pbx is now known as pbx-lunch [15:15] Yowl: yes [15:15] Yowl: You are probably just trolling in fact. I realize this now. [15:15] Yowl: Hard drives sometimes even have 2 in them! [15:15] CatKiller: thanks for the TC info to wipe a drive with random. Very neat. and faster than dd or shred [15:15] philinux: No worries [15:16] ActionParsnip, I find that it manages dependencies better than apt-get [15:16] philinux: But really, writing zeroes is probably more than enough with new drives [15:16] CatKiller: 2 of what? [15:16] CatKiller: yeah but the TC way is well fast [15:16] philinux: I'd really like to see anybody managing to retrieve even 1% of a zeroed drive with an unlimited ammount of equipment [15:16] Probably doable but not realistic [15:16] so good enough [15:17] !aptitude | DX099 [15:17] DX099: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter multiarch problems on non-updated 12.04 installs, see http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. [15:17] CatKiller: You accuse me of not listening, but I am not trying to delete data in the first place!!! [15:18] Yowl: you have the info to proceed > http://superuser.com/questions/418298/why-is-gnu-shred-faster-than-dd-when-filling-a-drive-with-random-data [15:18] DX099: they both hanfdle deps equally, aptitude is not default installed. If aptitude was better, dont you think they would use that as default instead of apt-get [15:18] Yowl: use the shred method [15:18] philinux: Actually the question in that link wasn't actually answered in the first place [15:19] Yowl: it uses pseudo random and gives progress info [15:19] ActionParsnip, I usually find myself better with aptitude ncurse interface, it has everything I need and don't break anything in particular, so I'm just fine with it [15:19] Yowl: but it gives you the correct shred command [15:19] philinux: Can I get a estimation before I start? [15:19] philinux: with shred? [15:20] Yowl: no but as soon as it starts it will [15:20] DX099: can you pastebin the output of the command I gave please [15:20] aptitude does resolve dependencies differently and more thoroughly. This can result in dependency loops when doing a dist-upgrade, so apt-get is usually preferred. [15:20] jhutchins: I use apt-fast :) [15:20] philinux: Is it pausable? [15:20] no idea [15:22] Anyone know if shred is pausable? [15:22] ActionParsnip, huh ? I don't need to reinstall those. If I do that, it will reinstall update-notifier, which I absolutely can't stand. Since update-manager can do just fine without the notifier counterpart, I just need to lie to apt that yes indeed, update-notifier is installed. [15:22] DX099: As I mentioned, use equivs. [15:22] theadmin, that is what I'm doing right now [15:23] Yowl: you can use SIGSTOP but its not a feature of the command as far as I know [15:23] DX099: Also, you can confiugre update-manager not to notify you... [15:23] theadmin, it will if it finds undone updates [15:23] DX099: Ah, yeah, I guess. [15:23] you may disable it to CHECK the update [15:24] DX099: True. My bad. [15:24] but whenever you do some apt-get/aptitude update, it pops out === Ozzy is now known as Guest71109 [15:25] ActionParsnip: So I type sigstop into a terminal? Or its something I download? and will it start from where it left off when done? [15:25] I mean when ready [15:25] Yowl: my google foo is strong today http://superuser.com/questions/244149/gnu-shred-can-i-pause-abort-resume [15:25] Yowl: its an option on kill [15:25] DX099: Anyway, run "equivs-control hamsters", then open the hamsters file in your favorite editor, fill out, at least, Package: and Provides:, and then run equivs-build hamsters. [15:25] ActionParsnip: If it kills the operation, it's not a pause.... [15:26] Yowl: see link all is possible ^^^ [15:26] theadmin, so as I couldn't find a proper way to get rid of it, I felt like I was being under Windows again with forcing their choices on you not giving you any way out. Yes, I got it, I'm editing the file right now. I know how to read man bro :) [15:26] philinux: thanks [15:26] *with devs [15:26] Yowl: the option pauses it. kill doesnt always kill a process. read the kill man page please [15:26] Yowl: http://superuser.com/questions/244149/gnu-shred-can-i-pause-abort-resume as an example [15:27] ActionParsnip: you've been ninjad ^^^ [15:27] DX099: After installing, put your fake update-notifier package on hold: echo "update-notifier hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections. This is necessary because if there's an update for the package, APT will pull it in giving you the real thing. [15:27] theadmin, ok [15:28] theadmin, "Provides" line is for the dependencies it satisfies for other packages right ? [15:29] DX099: Yeaah. Actually, if your Package: is update-notifier, you can leave it empty. As an alternative, set Package: to something like update-notifier-fake, and Provides: update-notifier. [15:30] theadmin, alright [15:30] DX099: If that's the case, you don't have to use the hold. [15:30] theadmin, might be better that way indeed [15:31] theadmin, so my "Provides line is like":ubuntu-desktop,update-manager,update-notifier [15:31] DX099: Yeah no, just "update-notifier". [15:31] ok [15:32] DX099: Basically the update-manager package will see that a package which provides update-notifier is present and will not try to pull in update-notifier. [15:32] ok [15:33] theadmin, worked like a charm. Both Aptitude and I are content ! :) [15:34] DX099: Good :). Now let's just hope update-manager won't bail out with the notifier missing... [15:34] hi [15:36] theadmin, it doesn't. Well It's not but I'm managing my updates manually so I don't care [15:36] hi all [15:36] Yowl: see this http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/creating-new-volume [15:36] DX099: Why do you need update-manager then? [15:36] people, is there command for enabling/disabling repo in sources.list.d? [15:37] i have a problem with lightdm on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS [15:37] excalibr: mv ;) [15:37] theadmin, because ubuntu-desktop complains about it ? [15:37] DX099: Uh... Huh? Oh, you mean removing update-manager removes ubuntu-desktop? [15:37] theadmin, yup [15:37] this is my first irc chat [15:37] DX099: That's fine. ubuntu-desktop doesn't actually *do* anything, it's just a metapackage which pulls in the actual parts of the desktop. You can safely remove it. [15:37] theadmin: so there isn't? just want to be sure so i dont reinvent the wheel :P [15:38] excalibr: Yeah, I don't think there is [15:38] all of a sudden lightdm freezes quite often when I turn on my laptop [15:38] anyone is experiencing the same problem? [15:38] theadmin, oh ok :) [15:39] CatKiller: Do you have any personal experience with Truecrypt or Luks? [15:40] I can install win2k guest. But trying to run it after install gives me "a disk read error occured" . Again known bug in Ubuntu? [15:40] Problems with ubuntu 12.10 and Qemu [15:41] is there an open source file hosting site that i can use on my ubuntu nas? [15:41] can any buddy guide how to run own irc server on ubuntu [15:41] just something for folks on my network to drop files on and get a lan url to it [15:41] os2finn: it's unlikely you should be installing windows 2000, or using qemu :) [15:41] dcope: ubuntu one has 5gb free I think? google drive has 15 [15:42] hundreds of others [15:42] reisio: Sometimes you just have to do some things [15:42] dcope: are you on about something like this? [15:42] os2finn: sometimes the things you should do are not doing other things :) [15:42] I would love to run this app under Wine. But Ubuntu bugs prevent that so Qemu is only option [15:43] os2finn: what app? [15:43] Okuma IGF proprietary CAM software runs fine under Wine in Ubuntu 12.04-32-bit [15:43] but not with 64.bit [15:43] resure: not looking for a 'cloud' solution [15:43] yogesh, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Servers [15:43] hitsujiTMO: ? [15:44] os2finn: should run the same; sure you're using a 32-bit WINEARCH? [15:44] thanks [15:44] Hello [15:44] I just installed the ATI drivers from AMD's website [15:44] dcope: you want a webUI to file hosting? [15:44] But I think that screwed everything up [15:44] can I uninstall it? [15:44] Xethron: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:44] thanks krux [15:44] dcope: just setup a samba/nfs/sshfs share [15:44] reisio: i have that now but i want a web page [15:45] so my family can use it too [15:45] i did a ircd-hybrid with hybserv2 few days ago with no probs.. [15:45] ? [15:45] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/TermsOfService [15:45] dcope: mmm [15:45] dcope: would check sf.net [15:45] ok [15:45] reisio: I am sure. This is a know bug with ubuntu 64-bit kernel. Something to do with ptrace [15:45] dcope: or the package db for your language of choice (cpan:perl, pypi:python) [15:45] so... just to be clear... has anyone ever gotten usb devices to work in kvm under precise? [15:46] os2finn: that's hard to believe, but no matter :) [15:46] os2finn: why windows 2000? why qemu? [15:46] cause as far as I can tell apparmor is basically just sitting there going... nope i just broke everything lolz. [15:46] because apparmor [15:47] hi there [15:47] os2finn, in kvm, you using the qcow2 file format? [15:48] reisio: on 64-bit crashes with "err:seh:raise_exception Exception frame is not in stack limits => unable to dispatch exception." [15:49] hi there i want to remove odd characters from filenames in a directory with rename but i can't figure out how to do that, I wan to remove : < > Spaces [15:49] reision: Just because w2k does not need registration and app runs fine on it....also W2k is a lot faster than ie XP [15:50] compdoc: Tried Raw and Qcow2 [15:50] it installs fine and boots ok after install. But if I shut it and try to run Qemu again it wont work anymore [15:51] Qemu because I am familiar with it [15:51] there is even a tiny bit of my code in Qemu(PPC PREP part) [15:52] neyder_: i'd ask in #bash [15:52] Ok ActionParsnip [15:53] neyder_: detox is a handy app for that [15:53] neyder_: with rename.ul it'd be while(true); do rename ' ' '_' *\ * [15:54] hello everyone sorry to bother you, using 13.10 here, my WIRED connection gets lost after sleep/wakeup. any clues ? thanx [15:54] neyder_: with rename (perl) it'd be rename 's/ /_/g' * -n (remove -n if it's good) [15:54] I just installed the ATI drivers that I downloaded directly from AMD's website. But it seems to have caused some major problems. Is it possible to uninstall it? [15:55] neyder_: while(true); foo; done, even, but don't use that one [15:56] Xethron: just switching back to your previous driver should suffice [15:56] Xethron: in future try to use packages via the package manager, and not random websites [15:57] whats the method to move LVM disks from one motherboard to another? tried to just move them, but it complains about missing disks. it can be brought together with a --partial and passes fsck, but it wont auto mount or not complain about being partial [15:58] rmbell: the only thing that would have potentially changed is the device name/order, and the kernel's support for the hardware [15:58] reisio: so basically try swapping around the sata cables and a different kernel? [15:59] rmbell: you could, but it really shouldn't matter, unless your configuration was relying on them, which would be odd I think [15:59] i havent checked the bios just yet either, could/would the controller being set to a different type (ide vs ahci) cause it as well? [15:59] rmbell: yeah potentially [16:00] when i try vgreduce --removemissing it just fails with error 5 as well [16:00] reisio: it was from amd's website. And the other packages are now greyed out... Can't seem to switch back to them [16:00] could somone help me via teamviewer on installing some firmware for a driver im having trouble with ? [16:01] rmbell: what were you even using the lvm for? [16:01] What's the release date on 13.10? [16:01] reisio: a storage folder combining a few disks [16:01] cylex: 10th month [16:02] ah [16:02] cylex tomorrow [16:02] ok [16:02] thanks [16:02] rmbell: yeah those are the only really likely things, disk order / configuration file specificity, kernel support, bios oddity [16:03] so any ideas? [16:03] i was using an addin sata pci card for the disks before, but the cables cant reach now heh [16:03] mmm [16:04] scoring some longer cables might be the simplest fix, then [16:04] the entery in the host file for my domain name must be www.mydomain.com or just mydomain.com ? [16:04] xtriz: doubt it'd matter either way, but mydomain is normal [16:04] reisio: thats what im thinking, or just try the disks out of the cage temp with the short cables [16:05] rmbell: yeah good idea [16:05] xtriz: if you put www.mydomain.com then domain.com won't work, and vice versa [16:05] reisio, so if i am using mydomain.com and i can access my machine using www.mydomain.com ? [16:05] Rory, ^ [16:05] xtriz: I don't understand that question [16:06] xtriz: Why don't you try it and see, it'd be quicker [16:06] www. is a subdomain of mydomain [16:06] iirc wont work without a dns record for www. [16:06] Rory, for updating the A records it is taking quite a long time so any changes i am doing makes me to wait for hours. [16:06] for example, home.rory.sh is an entirely different machine from just rory.sh [16:09] здравствуйте, я новичок и не могу решить свою проблему самостоятельно.помогите пожалуйста,дело в том что некоторое время компютер небыл подключон к сети,и теперь на мой компьютер не приходят обънавления ubuntu,а вверху отображается красный треухольник с в [16:09] осклицательным знаком-придупреждение о том что якобы обновления устарели.

[18:13] vimpuls: the kidsouce.com web page. [18:13] hello from France, can I ask here a question about sinking my Ubuntu laptop to a Logitech bluetooth adapter ? [18:14] jcmoriaud: yes, here in English or in the French Ubuntu channel in French. [18:14] vimpulse: It's easy to do, and works better for testing it out, even running off it well. [18:14] What is the difference between init and telinit? [18:14] vimpulse: note... have to use www.kidsource.com [18:14] ok, thanks [18:14] !fr | jcmoriaud [18:14] jcmoriaud: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [18:14] no problem for me in english... [18:14] :-) [18:15] jcmoriaud: your English is good but your French is probably better. It may be easier for #ubuntu-fr to understand you than for us to understand you. :) [18:15] well ok, no problem... I have no problem in english, but I will switch to the french support then. [18:15] cheers [18:16] jcmoriaud: cheers! If they don't help you, please come back here. [18:16] where do you get started for ethical hacking? [18:16] How do I tell, on my ubuntu server, if it's 64 bit or 32 bit? [18:16] lolx [18:16] datandroiddude: as in white hat hacking? Or the traditional hacking as in programming? [18:17] Ziber: arch [18:17] eer: dunno. If you want to change runlevels, use telinit: it's a correct tool for the job. Using init for the job may be deprecated. [18:17] Ziber: will tell you if the software arch [18:17] reisio: Excuse me? [18:17] Okay. i686 = 64 bit? [18:17] hacking as in making infectious viruses [18:17] and security and stuff [18:18] datandroiddude: the problem with making infectious viruses is that we don't know you're ethical. [18:18] Ziber: nope [18:18] no im just trying to understand it inside out [18:18] but where do i start is the question [18:18] ok thanks [18:18] datandroiddude: there is no way you can convince us to believe your claim. [18:18] i686 = 32 and x86 = 64? [18:18] Ziber: x86 is 32-bit, the x is a placeholder for i386, i486, etc. [18:18] Ziber: x86_64 or amd64 is 64-bit [18:18] you will see '64' somewhere [18:18] ok where do i get started with security [18:19] reisio: Okay, thanks. [18:19] quadHelix: hmmm. I just looked at . It is actually not a filtering provider. Your problem is a perplexing one. [18:19] Ziber: now to see if your _hardware_ supports 64-bit, regardless of what type of software you have installed, grep ' lm' /proc/cpuinfo, if you see output, it's 64-bit ready [18:19] datandroiddude: #security [18:20] quadHelix: Please visit . Does this show you the Google Web Search homepage? [18:20] reisio: Oh, that's good to know. [18:20] was I offline in the past 10 minutes? [18:20] belgianguy: yes. [18:20] vimpulse: agreed. I have 2 ubuntu boxes that resolve to kidsource.com when I ping. I can reach the google web page via browser using www.google.com [18:20] quadHelix: so why are you worried? [18:21] vimpulse: I'm sorry, I was under the impression that I was being ignored, but my WiFi seems to have dropped out [18:21] vimpulse: because it has never happened before. [18:21] dear all: should quadHelix be worried? [18:21] I have looked, but I don't see a manual for LUKS, can anyone point me to a good one please? Some one please reply, I've asked this enough with big spaces between asking already... [18:21] vimpulse: I left work on Friday and left teamviewer running and now DNS does not act like it was [18:22] hello, I am afraid that ther's nobody on the french support available right now... [18:22] jcmoriaud: so ask us :) [18:22] do you mind helping me on that matter ? [18:22] hello i have tried to upgrade ubuntu 12.04 ...and i get this error - http://pastebin.com/CeRE3uT3 [18:22] anyone any experience with emerald or gtk-window-decorator? [18:22] !anyone | belgianguy [18:22] belgianguy: 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. [18:23] jcmoriaud: simply ask your question. Please do not press Enter until 1) you are finished describing your entire question or 2) you run out of space to type more information. [18:23] ok then, I have managed to conect to my Logitech bluetooth adapter (connected to my Pioneer amp) [18:23] The window decorations are gone, Unity (surprisingly) just works [18:23] how do I re enable my windows decorations? [18:23] Yowl: ah, it's good to know that Ubuntu runs well off a USB mass storage device. Maybe I will try it one time. [18:24] but each time I try to sink the audio to this adapter, I get en error "Connection Failed: Stream setup failed" [18:24] belgianguy: dunno. try this ugly hack? "twm &" [18:25] hi all ... I back to windows again [18:25] this was the case already with 13.05 [18:25] 13.04 I mean [18:25] it did not work [18:25] sash87: sucks for you [18:25] vimpulse: Obviously it runs slower, but you can even install stuff etc onto the USB drive [18:25] vimpulse: I am concerned because of scripts like this contained on the page : [18:25] if(document.location.protocol!='https:') [18:25] document.write(unescape("%3Cscript%20src='http://s.clicktale.net/WRc5.js'%20type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E")); [18:25] brb [18:25] Yowl: that, too, is a cool feature. [18:26] I was following this http://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/how-auto-connect-ubuntu-1204-gsm-mobile-broadband-connection-on-boot-startup-service [18:26] quadHelix: why does that concern you? [18:26] and in step 2 sudo gedit /etc/init.d/mobile-broadband-connect [18:26] vimpulse: And its quicker and easier to write to a USB flash drive then a CD-RW, I think faster to read off one too, at least with a USB flash drive, there is no spin up time or noise [18:27] I have googled a bit, and when I do a pacmd list-sources and list-sinks I am afraid that I don't see the Logitech in the sinks... [18:27] open a new empty file of name /mobile-broadband-connect [18:27] then what to do I dont unnderstand [18:27] quadHelix: www.clicktale.net appears 100% innocuous to me. You can try to ask in ##networking if you're still concerned. Do tell them why you're worried. [18:27] reisio, I am trying to ping google.com. My DNS keeps resolving to kidsource.com. It makes no sense... [18:27] quadHelix: oh fun [18:28] reisio: but quadHelix has zero other symptoms. [18:28] I was trying to do a pactl load-module module-loopback... but as long as I don't have the sink module available... [18:28] reisio: so I don't see why there is a real problem that must be solved. [18:28] vimpulse, reisio: prolly this damn windows DNS server on our network.... [18:29] prolly [18:29] any help.... at any cost I have to fix this issue now [18:29] reisio, it is still strange. If i dig the site the IP is completely different than what it is resolving as [18:29] sash87: did you tried what the video shown instead of that guide ? [18:29] Yowl: note that, IIRC, a "1x" DVD drive is equal to a "9x" CD drive. So an "8x" DVD drive is faster than the fastest common CD drives. [18:29] can i reconfigure that bootstrap again with out lossing any data [18:30] Yowl: each 'x' is worth 9 times as much speed. [18:30] ya absolutely but it did not help me..because after doing that enable mobile broadband should come [18:30] it s not coming in my case [18:30] sash87: ? [18:30] sash87: you were missing the mobile broadband tab or what ? [18:31] no that is there [18:31] then did you press add and gone through the wizard ? [18:31] I followed all the steps according to that video [18:31] my ssh connection keeps dropping [18:31] vimpulse: But still, the speed of a good USB flash drive will most likely leave any DVD in the dust, even read speed, especially random continuous read speed [18:31] reisio: Anyway, I think that quadHelix is welcome to ask here, but is likely to get better help in ##networking. Do you agree? [18:31] Yowl: Sounds likely enough. [18:31] sash87: yes, and after you did all those steps your mobile broadband should be now in the list when you click on the icon for network connections [18:32] hay alguien español??? [18:32] sash87: after you click on it, it should initiate the connection [18:32] no its not happening [18:32] alguien español???

[18:34] http://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/how-auto-connect-ubuntu-1204-gsm-mobile-broadband-connection-on-boot-startup-service you can check that 3 option here [18:34] sash87: then you are probably back at the problem that your usb umts modem is not detected or no driver is loaded [18:35] lol [18:35] LOL [18:35] no I check with lsusb and its detecting [18:35] sash87: lsusb only says what devices you have, it doesn't say if the driver is used for it [18:36] then what I need to do now [18:36] reisio: I found another way that uses FIreFox throught Wine. The Pipelight looks like it might work better. [18:37] nm m,njjlknblkjbk.jb hjkb hjk hjb vjhb jbhn [18:37] xao [18:37] and I was following the steps mentioned by the above url [18:37] clifter: yes, pipelight is better than emulating the entire browser [18:37] but in 2nd step I am confused [18:37] I mean here sudo gedit /etc/init.d/mobile-broadband-connect [18:37] reisio: Cool thought so, just wasn"t sure. Thanks [18:38] sash87: try to run this, but you need to replace AAAA and BBBB with USB ID of your modem from lsusb output - USB ID is in form ID AAAA:BBBB before the name : sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0xAAAA product=0xBBBB [18:38] sash87: if the mobile broadband option doesn't show up even after this, then it is unfortunately time for the slow way, that is asking this on forums :( [18:39] is ubuntu just tested on multiple monitors? [18:39] I have looked, but I don't see a manual for LUKS, can anyone point me to a good one please? [18:39] I still get so many bugs when I use a second monitor. [18:39] windows randomly switching screens, performance plummeting, [18:40] jakemp: that's to do with GNOME 3 being so new, AIUI [18:40] if you're not using the latest version, you might want to update [18:40] is unity based on gnome3 reisio? [18:41] I am, 13.04. Waiting for 13.10 to upgrade, since the new kernel has a bunch of new goodies for sandy bridge CPUs and graphics [18:44] jakemp: yes it is [18:44] !nomodeset > bekks [18:44] bekks, please see my private message [18:44] jakemp: the version of compiz used could also be fairly bleeding edge [18:45] jakemp: I am using an old, stable Linux distro, and am basically happy that I need only upgrade once every two years or so. :) [18:45] yeah, I would have stuck with the LTS, but sandy bridge graphics were brand new in 12.04, and not well supported. [18:45] jakemp: and my graphics needs are basically only two-dimensional. [18:46] yeah, vimpulse, I've not had any stability issues until recently. Otherwise, stock ubuntu has been nice. [18:46] do you use 2D unity, or something else? [18:46] My broadcom driver resets itself to wl instead of b43 [18:46] Yowl: dunno. Try ##security, or try . Ask them how likely it is that a LUKS manual exists or not. Maybe there's something in the kernel documentation tree. [18:47] jakemp: I use Xorg plus XFCE. [18:47] It's been a long time since I've used XFCE. [18:47] Yowl: is LUKS part of the kernel, or part of userspace? [18:48] so? [18:48] I also don't like the changes to the default file viewer in 12.04. The removal of the auto complete for a heavyweight search and not being able to switch back is stupid.

[19:06] !join #picketlink [19:06] TauNeutrino... do you mean a certain page from a multi page PDF? [19:07] hey guys, what the command to suspend to RAM ? [19:07] Hello. Using ubuntu 12.04... Getting an error: The server protocol version is 28, but at least version 33 is required. Install a newer version of the Akonadi server.... sudo apt-get install akonadi-server: akonadi-server is already the newest version. #akonadi says:then that really means your akonadi-server package isn't the right one [19:07] no a whole pdf document, but other documents work [19:07] don't know where to go from here. [19:07] even in this pdf viewer [19:07] TauNeutrino: does the issue exist with an alternative pdf viewer ? or with a completely different pdf document? [19:08] I can print completly different pdf documents, except this one specific, and I only have the pdf document viewer [19:08] TauNeutrino... have you tried acroread? the official Adobe PDF reader? [19:09] hhm not sure, it takes hours to download, I have only a limited umts modem [19:09] usb thing [19:09] TauNeutrino... then maybe the file's permissions are set to NOT print [19:10] hm [19:10] I'll look after the permission [19:10] So, what, in layman's terms, does "kernel panic - not syncing" mean? [19:10] TauNeutrino... that would explain the current issue [19:11] I've seen it a few times when rebooting a physical server, and just saw it when trying to boot a VM after install. [19:11] hm no I have all the rights [19:12] Ziber it means something went very wrong. "not syncing" means any data that was in memory was not flushed to disk and so was lost.

[19:15] Ziber: You have to fix the issue - the screen content shows you some hint at least. [19:15] TauNeutrino: What pdf reader are you using? [19:15] ziber: check the kernel logs, figure out what went wrong. Could be software, could even be hardware. [19:15] :( [19:15] TauNeutrino: is more than likely an error in the document itself causing it to crash. if you call the app by the terminal, you might get an output explaining the error in some form, but more than likely you will need to use another pdf reader to print the doc [19:15] bekks: You know, I come to this channel for enlightenment and assistance on issues with Ubuntu, and while I realize that you're not paid, it would behoove you to be a little more professional with your responses to people asking for help. [19:16] Right now, the server in my house (I'm away at school) will encounter that error anytime I restart it. Not much I can do about it remotely. [19:16] bekks: I get that the UUID doesn't exist.

[19:16] I can't download acroread, didn't find the package [19:17] apb: Alright. [19:17] TauNeutrino: What Ubuntu version are you using? (use the command "cat /etc/issue" to check) [19:17] TauNeutrino... try xpdf. 878KB with dependencies. not sure if it will work for you though [19:17] DWSR_: you cannot boot because it doesnt exist. And I cant tell why it doesnt exist because I dont know how you installed ubuntu exactly. If you are unconfident with the free support you get, I will rest my case for giving others the chance to help you. [19:17] I already tried to print it directly from the page I downloaded it [19:17] heya guys, ive been using ubuntu server to run my own web server, is it possible to move my webserver and whats running on it to ubuntu desktop instead? [19:17] meh32: Yes, you can install the "ubuntu-desktop" package [19:18] zykotick9: thx, it's better with a sudo :-) [19:18] Rory, on top of my ubuntu server? what does that do exactly? [19:18] TauNeutrino: Did you verify the pdf settings (in the file unprintable) are allowing printing? [19:18] Rory, it transforms my ubuntu server to ubuntu desktop? [19:18] meh32: It's a metapackage it has a lot of dependencies [19:18] Can someone please help me with LUKS?

[19:19] meh32: Exactly :) [19:19] TauNeutrino: If that doesn't work, you need to enable the partner repository in your software sources settings [19:19] Rory, great, thanks dude [19:19] meh32... we try to make it easy... ;)) [19:20] ObrienDave, if it is that easy, its great heheh im gonna create a backup now and test with it [19:20] !luks [19:20] bekks: I have, over and over, and no reply, plus I got more long questions then can reasonably fit in one line [19:20] meh32... ok, good luck. let us know how it works for you [19:21] bekks: So now I search for someone with knowledge of LUKS, and once I find him/her, I will get into the details [19:21] thanks, will try to do that [19:21] Yowl: Good luck then. [19:21] bekks: You don't know about LUKS? [19:22] Yowl: Doesnt matter, because this isnt how support in here works :) I dont think someone in here will give you personal support, but instead you will be required to "just ask" and see which answers you will get :) Just my two cents... [19:22] Yowl: http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto3 [19:23] If I open the document with xpdf it freezes and disappears with "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" in the terminal, and some other like random symbols [19:23] Hi - is it somehow possible (like in debian) to backport a saucy package by building from source and installing it into raring? [19:24] Yowl: The people you see here are just fellow usrs, mostly waiting for their own questions to be answerd. I would appear that noone who is free to reply at the moment is confident in supporting luks. [19:24] Curupted file?? [19:24] TauNeutrino: That heavily sounds like the PDF is corrupted. And xpdf isnt capable of PDF/A/X DRM settings. [19:24] TauNeutrino: corrupt pdf, corrupt reader program. Try another reader? [19:25] TauNeutrino: aptitude search ~dpdf [19:25] lol everything corrupted damn [19:25] hm [19:25] TauNeutrino: Most likely, the PDF is protected by DRM. [19:26] is there a way to autofollow dependency with apt-get? [19:26] and I deactivate DRM how?? [19:27] TauNeutrino: By friendly asking the author of the PDF to provide a non-protected PDF. [19:27] so that i not need to write each packagename of needed packeges? [19:27] oh well ok I understand [19:27] :( turns out Windows Decoration is just a checkbox in CCSM [19:28] ticked it and there they were [19:28] rethus: I don't follow. apt already does that ... [19:28] had to logoff to get _both_ Unity and Window Decoration, but here we are [19:29] i got many dependency errors, if i try to install [19:29] and how can I find out if this is exactly the problem? [19:29] The file is from some prof at university [19:29] TauNeutrino: By friendly asking the author of the PDF... [19:29] rethus... which package? [19:29] no, I mean if it is not a DRM problem [19:29] or you sure?? [19:30] TauNeutrino: I am pretty sure it is a DRM issue. [19:30] kde-standard [19:31] I mean, I can't walk up to my prof and say: "Hey can you pls remove that DRM thing" And the doesn't know what the hell iam talking about [19:31] would be awkeward I guess [19:31] sry for weird english [19:32] TauNeutrino if its not drm, then its more than likely corrupt or what ever was used to generate it did not generate it propperly [19:32] TauNeutrino: You can friendly ask like: "Dear Sir, I am having problems printing your PDF. Is it possible that you used DRM to inhibit printing?" [19:32] well, ok [19:32] :) [19:33] rethus... doing "sudo apt-get install kde-standard" wants to grab all of the dependences for me [19:33] TauNeutrino. if your prof added DRM to the pdf file , he would know it's protected , unless he got the file elsewhre and doesn't realize it's DRM'd [19:33] nope [19:33] it this would be, i wouldn't ask here ;) [19:34] had installed backports before. [19:34] rethus... maybe you need to check your repositories [19:34] i have remove them from source.list, but seems still appear [19:35] libdecore5 installed 4.8.5 but 4.10.1 should installed === GingerGeek[Away] is now known as GingerGeek [19:36] but 4.8.5 gi fine, so i wonder, why apt still want to go to 4.10.1 [19:36] hi guys [19:36] is there something like a cache which are not cleaned with apt-get update? [19:37] could be. try " apt-get purge" and apt-get clean" [19:37] hey guys, any idea when is 13.10. coming out? any time soon? [19:37] rimmer, tomorrow [19:37] rimmer... within the next few days. can't wait [19:38] rimmer. tomorrow ..sometime , don't ask what time , that's a mystery :) [19:38] rethus... then apt-get update. (i always forget that part LOL) [19:39] when i try to run airodump-ng mon0 it tells me there no device [19:40] So anyone knows how to solve this? [19:40] rethus... doing "sudo apt-get install kde-standard" gives me this::: http://pastebin.com/N66715ew === kingnick42 is now known as Guest30831 [19:43] I have renamed a user using usermod on 12.04, but the greeter (lightdm?) is still showing the old username, as is the username in the top right corner of the X session.

[19:59] NewToThis: What part of that response is not clear to you? [19:59] why are you trying to put it into monitor mode, not call cards will support it [20:00] jhutchins, a generic question [20:00] what am i supposed to do? [20:00] why are you trying to put it into monitor mode, not call cards will support it [20:01] hello [20:01] because aircrack requires it [20:01] and i noe mine does [20:01] NewToThis: why do you need aircrack [20:01] to test out network testing [20:01] on my android AP [20:01] NewToThis, did you check your wifi is compatible? [20:01] NewToThis: you don't need aircrack to test a wireless network, just join the network to tets it [20:02] test if aircrack will hack the password! [20:02] NewToThis: I'll put money that this is broadcom network card [20:02] B43 [20:02] hi all [20:02] NewToThis: if you are using a secure protocol, it won't crack the password, set a secure password [20:02] monitor mode doesnt even work! [20:02] NewToThis: yeah, you'll have problems with the broadcom, stop trying to crack network passwords and just use a secure/sane password === slashroot__ is now known as jMyles [20:03] NewToThis: yes, I know it doesn't work, that's why I just said you'll have problems [20:03] but it says that mon0 is in monitor mode [20:03] Im currently using ubuntu 13.10 final beta and i want to know if some one here has tried to use the wiiu pro controller since it is supported in the kernel 3.11 i have a problem with inverted analogs in steam. anyone? [20:03] NewToThis: where does it say that ? [20:04] when i type in airmon-ng start wlan0 [20:04] NewToThis: mon0 is a virtual device, [20:04] so it wont work? [20:04] NewToThis: basically, you'll be better just putting a secure password on the AP and using a secure protocol, such as WPA2 [20:04] NewToThis: just apply some common sense and you won't need to "test" it [20:04] NewToThis: hackin is a breaking the low ;) [20:04] learn to spell [20:04] and listen ikonia : [20:05] do u know how to change the driver? [20:05] because this is the output i get under driver [20:05] modinfo b43 [20:05] NewToThis: we dont give advice for possible breaking the law. if you really "need" to do this tasks you will want to read into the docu anyway [20:05] so ikonia? [20:05] NewToThis: not helping you as a.) I don't believe you are testing your own driver b.) your attitude towards me giving you advice just made me turn off, sorry [20:06] jesus christ i never knew people with knowledge were such brats [20:06] NewToThis: name calling is not going to help you get help from others [20:06] ok [20:07] k1l: were you trying to contact me earlier? [20:07] What is there to do in Ubuntu? [20:07] hey guys, is there a way of turning off the fan of a laptop. I already have a table fan under it which should do the job. I now want to turn off the fan since it is too noisy. Is there a way without having to open the laptop? [20:08] NewToThis: https://help.ubuntu.com [20:08] NewToThis: that will give you an introduction to it === dave is now known as Guest78176 [20:08] turning off the fan? i have an asus g75vx and the only options is silent mode [20:08] im not sure u can tho [20:08] bwayne: sorry, i dont know [20:09] question. I was thinking about downloading the VM player plus directly from vm ware. I want to install it on my ubuntu machine [20:09] Would that be a good idea to download and extract from source? [20:10] harushimo: downloading something you don't know how to use, and don't know if it's a "good idea" seems a bad idea [20:10] I've done source install before. I want to break anything my system [20:10] harushimo: more so as vmware-player is not "source" [20:10] it's binary files [20:10] sorry [20:10] cantoma: the fan is there for a reason, turning it off is not in your best interest, I'd say open it up and blow it out with compressed air [20:10] no need to apologies [20:10] Can you build programs that run directly in Ubuntu using the Pyhton IDE? [20:10] NewToThis: yes, as they run in python, ubuntu uses python so "yes" [20:11] Is it a good idea to use bin file from vmware? [20:11] cantoma, if your fan is full speed, maybe installing lm-sensors is your solution [20:11] what format do i save it as? [20:11] NewToThis - what do you mean by " the python IDE"? [20:11] when will ubuntu 13.10 be out? [20:11] they wrote it for linux. I don't see why it would be a problem [20:11] harushimo: thats up to you to decide, but using something you don't seem to understand does not seem like a "good" idea [20:11] emacs, of course :p [20:11] tomorrow? [20:11] NewToThis - it sounds like your question is about your IDE and python programming, not ubuntu per se [20:12] I've done bin installs before. Everytime I've install from ubuntu, my system has broke [20:12] belgianguy, that has been done by a technician a few weeks ago .. he then told me if it comes back then you need to replace the fan [20:12] harushimo: ok, so using something you a.) can't use b.) breaks your system does not seem like a good idea [20:12] this new ubuntu is sooo slow on my virtual machine… can i remove the special effects and other junk? [20:12] cantoma: replacing might help; but laptops are hard to take apart [20:12] I agree with you [20:12] OerHeks, I have lm-sensors [20:12] luist: use another desktop environment [20:12] then what is good vm software to use for linux? [20:13] Calinou: like? [20:13] belgianguy, look .. i have a table fan under the laptop === Guest16833 is now known as bonerHead [20:13] belgianguy, right now i just want to turn off the fan [20:13] luist... VMs are never as fast as a native OS [20:13] harushimo: they all have pros/cons, do some research see which one ticks your boxes [20:13] belgianguy, it is keeping the laptop at 40C [20:13] ObrienDave: it was pretty fast with 12.04 [20:13] okay. I will do that [20:14] luist you can tweat the unity with unity-tweak-tool i recommend turning off background blur in 'search' .... if thaty doesnt help, you would be best to use al alternative DE such as gnome or xfce [20:14] cantoma: there's a package called fancontrol [20:14] but I never used it [20:14] just read about it now [20:14] luist... try Xubuntu or Kubuntu or Lubuntu for speed under a VM [20:15] belgianguy, it says to use pwmconfig and then pwmconfig says Manual control mode not supported for your device [20:15] cantoma: well there's always the physical way I guess === benoit_ is now known as Shiva [20:15] belgianguy, i just want to shut the fan NOW [20:15] belgianguy, i dont have the tool here to open the laptop === Shiva is now known as Guest7018 [20:16] belgianguy, unless i hit him with a hammer or a fork [20:16] you don't want to disable the fan. [20:16] i want to do it NOW and I don't care if it melts the computer LMAO [20:16] it spins for a reason [20:16] i need help with magnetics links, in firefox. i have transmission(latest) but when i press on a link and choose transmission from its folder nothing happens [20:16] Calinou, ObrienDave i have already said that there is a table fun under the laptop [20:17] harushimo: virtualbox :> [20:17] Calinou, ObrienDave i have already said that there is a table FAN under the laptop [20:17] cantoma: it doesn't really help [20:17] cantoma: a fan is in no daily activity meant to be stopped by a user [20:17] table fan is mostly marketing [20:17] cantoma... good luck with that [20:17] so it won't be close to userland [20:17] maybe in BIOS [20:18] I've tried virtualbox. It doesn't bode well with 64 bit processors [20:18] i am getting sick with this noise .. it is like a plane [20:18] i am getting sick with this noise .. it is like a plane taking off all the time [20:18] virtual box is a good piece of software though [20:18] harushimo... I run Vbox 64. No problems so far [20:18] cantoma: it's really hw related, so I'd say switch devices until new fan arrives [20:19] Hello [20:19] I was going to install vmware player plus on the computer [20:19] its a free for personal use [20:19] I'll check out virtual box again [20:19] belgianguy, i can see the temperature of the pc [20:20] hi all! trying to copy 6Gb video from my ubi 12.04.3 to external hdd (more then 160Gb free space) after 60-70% of copying shows not enough space on external hdd... suggestions gals? thx [20:20] Hello all, recently installted 13.10, then unity-tweak-tool. Previous versions of unity if I click on a window (via the launcher) that is not on my current workspace, it will switch to that workspace and window. This is not happening atm any ideas? [20:20] harushimo... did you install the GuestAdditions? [20:20] belgianguy, it would be so nice to be able just to turn it off for a few minutes ... so that i could just try to write something in silence [20:20] including the guest additions [20:20] cantoma: switch off laptop, install irc app on phone [20:21] belgianguy, i need the laptop i use latex [20:21] I haven't done the install for vmware yet. I downloaded the bundle from their website. I am about to do it [20:21] belgianguy... best idea yet today ;)) [20:21] Hi to all [20:21] hi [20:22] harushimo... have not used VMware. Let me know how you like it [20:22] belgianguy, and i am not on irc on the laptop [20:22] for sure [20:22] belgianguy, i am using a windows desktop pc to get to irc [20:22] Does someone have any idea why my super (Windows) key is not working? My keyboard is Logitech G710+ [20:23] ShadowStrider... does it work under another OS? [20:23] yes === AndresSM_away is now known as AndresSM [20:23] cantoma: prioritize, instead of asking for a (nigh impossible) fix which will mostly be a band-aid, start looking for a solution (which is a new fan) [20:23] In windows 7 64bit [20:24] belgianguy, i have ordered a new fan from ebay [20:24] ShadowStrider... Is your keyboard code correct for this version of Ubuntu?

How do I suspend/hibernate (ie copy memory to a file, so next time PC boots, the state of the open programs is restored) in Ubuntu 12.04? All I see in the shutdown menu is Restart and Shutdown. I also see Log off. [20:27] booting from it might even work if you're lucky, or put in in a case for an external drive, and approach it that way [20:27] belgianguy, i am copying stuff to an USB pen [20:28] cantoma: that works, too [20:28] well I googled that one out and it seems to be 133 === texla is now known as moes [20:29] Hello all [20:29] ok, sort of a flash ;) [20:30] yes, but is that the right keyboard code?

[20:46] bit of a jack of all trades [20:46] harushimo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mspwQfoYQks [20:46] probably wrong path, but i've tried quite a lot now [20:46] blueeyez: why would you want it to [20:47] Pici - I just want to know the prefer method [20:47] because i got freerip pro for windows (i do backup of my music cds with that and it seems to be only program not failing) [20:47] I see virtualization being used a lot in enterprises. I thought I can setup a vm and learn openstack that way [20:47] blueeyez: never heard of it, would you like to know a superior free native application you could use? [20:47] couple years ago, someone told me I need like six computers to do this [20:48] blueeyez: it's all about EAC (exact audi copy) [20:48] *audio [20:48] harushimo: You /could/ run opnestack on one beefy machine. [20:48] harushimo: so you're going to use it just because you think other people use it? [20:48] harushimo: I'm doing it right now. [20:48] reisio already tried sound juicer and it fails [20:48] nice [20:48] blueeyez: I didn't say sound juicer, but how does it fail? [20:48] I have pretty good machine [20:48] Is wget supposed to hang after finishing? [20:49] G33kDude: not really [20:49] it just get stuck.. [20:49] I'm going to use it and eventually let others use it(as of right now, no) [20:49] blueeyez: k, well, if you are serious about ripping, get rubyripper [20:49] reisio: It finished downloading, said it finished, and it's just sitting there. It hasn't returned to the shell. [20:49] blueeyez: and configure it properly [20:49] G33kDude: hit enter [20:49] ill try that reisio :) [20:49] harushimo: #ubuntu-server is probably a better place for this. [20:49] reisio: Thank you, that worked. I had no idea :D [20:50] i'm asking here if people have done it [20:50] G33kDude: did your url have any ampersands in it? ampersand=& [20:51] harushimo: he tried to help, people ther might have more experience with it :) [20:51] blueeyez: Last I checked both Gnome and KDE would rip music CDs from the filemanager. There are dozens of utilities in linux, and it's not hard to do manually. [20:51] blueeyez: http://www.accuraterip.com/driveoffsets.htm [20:52] G33kDude: sometimes tings don't work out perfectly and the shell just happens to not get you back to a prompt [20:52] G33kDude: visually, that is [20:52] jpds - thank you [20:52] jhutchins: yeah that's for tourists, though :) [20:54] hi. can anyone help me on the "ping" command? [20:54] datengarten: on? [20:54] to check my connection, lately i ping-ed some google nameserver (8.8.8.8 - reliable and easy to remember). along with particularly long ping times (1600 ms instead of 23 ms as usually) it gave me the note "pipe 2" at the end of the output, directly after the statistics part. [20:54] what does this "pipe 2" mean? [20:55] datengarten: http://www.think-lamp.com/2009/03/the-hidden-power-of-ping/ comment #10 [20:56] datengarten: try googling "ping pipe 2". Lots o' info. [20:56] I installed xdm and then chose it as my window manager. When I restarted my system it's using xdm and I can't use ubuntu at all. Nothing is here. Only official ubuntu wallpaper is on my desktop. [20:56] thanks everyone [20:56] How can I solve this problem? [20:56] reisio: do you know a good alternative to flac? [20:56] Muhammad_: chose it how? [20:57] feitingen: the format or the encoder? [20:57] reisio: the format [20:57] feitingen: there isn't really a better choice if you want lossless, no [20:57] bekks: i read that, and i didn't understand it :( [20:57] when ubuntu 13.10 official release is going to be available? [20:57] ivan_: tomorrow supposedly [20:57] rethus: bummer.. [20:57] reisio: It opened me a window where there were two options 1) xdm 2)ligh**. Then I chose xdm. That's it. [20:58] feitingen: why? :p [20:58] datengarten: What exactly is unclear? [20:58] tommorow is about one hour, I am in central european time :D [20:58] Muhammad_: there's no input box? [20:58] resio: tommorow is about one hour, I am in CET (central european time) :D [20:58] hi why do I have 127.0.0.1 in my resolv.conf? why don't I have the one assigned by the dhcp servers? [20:59] ivan_: heh [20:59] reisio: Nothing. [20:59] feitingen: ? You mean my fight with kde for the whole day now? You're right! [20:59] !dnsmasq | alesan [20:59] ivan_: it could be tomorrow GMT, I don't know [20:59] alesan: dnsmasq took over dns resolving [20:59] Muhammad_: the simplest way might be to CTRL+ALT+F2, sudo apt-get remove xdm && sudo apt-get install lightdm [20:59] resio: tomorrow GMT is in 2h [20:59] bekks: i roughly (very roughly) know the concept of pipes - but what has it got to do with ping; especially in this context? [21:00] ivan_, in which country are you in CET now???? You should be in CEST [21:00] ivan_: entirely possible [21:00] croatia [21:00] ivan_: there has never been a set time for the release. [21:00] datengarten: different concept [21:00] hurrrvatska [21:00] ivan_, and you do not observe summer time there? [21:00] bekks, can I uninstall it and make the system normal? [21:01] feitingen, why would one have something like that? can I remove it? [21:01] alesan: It is normal, since your system just caches DNS queries. [21:01] still summer time,i guess winter time is next weekend. EU rule...I'm not russian as my name maybe suggest to someone [21:01] reisio: Is there any other option? My host OS is OS X and I'm running ubuntu on a Mac. Well, F2 doesn't mean correct. [21:01] Quick question about unity launcher [21:01] reisio: It's running on VirtualBox. [21:02] bekks, that is not normal. I should have my network's DNS in resolv.conf. It has been like that for hundreds of years [21:02] Can it be configured to launch websites that I pass variables to? [21:02] rmac: there used to be webapps, if that's what you meant [21:02] Muhammad_: ah, I forget how to do that, #vbox would know [21:02] alesan: When running a DNS cache, it is normal. If you dont want that, disable NetworkManager and configure the usage of DHCP in /etc/network/interfaces manually. [21:02] For example, I would love to configure it to launch robtex with an IP [21:02] Muhammad_: but yeah you can fix it from your live OS, too [21:03] To build a url with parameters I pass in [21:03] Muhammad_: or you can edit the grub entry during bootup and include ' single' at the end of the kernel line === banisterfiend is now known as beastieboy [21:03] bekks, so I need to disable network manager entirely to disable this small thing? [21:03] alesan: Yes. [21:03] bekks, are the network settings very granular in Ubuntu? [21:03] alesan: At least as far as I know. [21:03] alesan: Define "very granular". [21:04] rmac: http://askubuntu.com/questions/207634/url-in-launcher [21:04] like that? [21:04] I used to use something like gnome-do to do this. [21:04] bekks, that if you want to change a small thing you have to disable network manager and setup everything by hand [21:04] including wpa_supplicant [21:04] belgianguy: Not really. [21:04] alesan: That has nothing to do with "very granular". You can do all those things manually if you like. Or just use a DNS cache, which works fine. [21:05] reisio: Sorry for this newbie question. Which command I should run during boot up to change that kernel line? [21:05] belgianguy: I am looking for a more "interactive" way to do this. === bfiller is now known as bfiller_afk [21:05] bekks, /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf comment out dns=dnsmasq [21:05] belgianguy: I hate to say this here, but I think window actually does this well with desktop search bar [21:05] belgianguy: Yea, I know tastes bad as it comes from my mouth [21:05] please do not say one has to disable all network manager to change a small setting next time [21:06] bye! [21:06] rmac: ? Use whatever gets the job done [21:06] He didnt even read all lines I posted... [21:06] hi. When I try to run evince (the pdf viewer), I get 'evince: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-3.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'. I have echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH -> /usr/local/lib. Inside is the file libgtk-3.so.0 [21:06] belgianguy: But the nice this with Windows deskbar that I would like to replicate in Ubuntu/unity is the shortcut feature. [21:07] I think I get what you want, and I think the terminal would be best suited [21:07] sienez: Did you manually install evince? [21:07] bekks, no, it shipped withy my distro [21:07] Muhammad_: old down shift, you should get a grub/boot menu [21:07] belgianguy: Agreed, but I would love to use unity or another launcher to get this done. [21:07] Muhammad_: if it doesn't have instructions, I think it's 'e' to edit [21:07] sienez: Why did you put some libbs into /usr/local/lkib then? [21:09] has anyone here set up radius with a cisco AP and freeradius? [21:09] bekks, i don't remember [21:09] jhutchins, bekks: ok, "packets under way" would have been the short and simple answer. i looked via google before, but didn't find something appropriate. now this answered my question: http://www.vincentverhagen.nl/2009/06/13/what-does-the-pipe-value-mean-in-the-output-of-ping/ [21:09] bekks, but why doesn't it find the file, when it's definitely there [21:10] sienez: Because its the wrong lib maybe. Did you try to disable the usage of /usr/local/lib if you dont remember why you are using it? [21:11] bekks, no. i also have the same file available here: ./usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-3.so.0 [21:11] bekks, so it exists 2x [21:11] bekks, but the 2nd one is not on ld_library_path [21:12] sienez: Sounds like there is pretty much broken then... [21:12] bekks, ummm.. how to recover then [21:12] bekks, should I add the 2nd dir to ld_library_path? [21:12] sienez: Disable the usage of things you configured and dont remember why :) [21:13] bekks, haha sounds good. how would I do that [21:13] remove from search path? [21:13] sienez: I dont know what you did and why you did it exactly. [21:14] bekks, what do you mean by "disable" [21:15] sienez: You somehow cofigure the usage of /usr/local/lib for LD_LIBRARY_PATH - so you should undo that. [21:15] bekks, oh yea. i ran ldconfig. before that I had an empty ld_config_path [21:15] bekks, which seemed more suspicious to me... [21:16] Anybody using an external enclosure with ubuntu? Is there anything special to be done, or is it just another USB device to ubuntu? 12.04 server here [21:16] apb: External enclosure for what...? [21:17] oh. hard drive [21:17] apb: It is a harddisk to ubuntu, nothing special - just unmount before pulling the cable. [21:17] kewl [21:18] how is it developing in Rails on ubuntu versus mac os ? [21:18] any major differences ? [21:18] any recommendations on a brand either plus or minus? [21:18] apb: depends on what you use as interface. USB - just another USB drive. eSATA: Just another SATA drive [21:18] kewl [21:19] was thinking about getting either a Rockwell or a Vantec enclosure [21:19] apb: I'd rather get a hdd from a good vendor like WD and buy a enclosure separately, else you don't knwo what you end up with [21:19] no I have the HD... just need the enclosure to recover data [21:19] s/knwo/know/ [21:20] my mobo seems to have gone bellyup... so need to recover the data [21:20] apb: I don't think that the difference between different enclosure vendors is very high [21:21] well... just reading some reviews... as always there's some people that love it, and some that hate it... but almost no mention of use with linux so I like to come here and ask [21:21] if i try to install kde-standard, i got a message (translatet sounds like this) : kde-plasma-desktop >=5:71~pre15ubuntu12.5) but should not be installed === hakunin_ is now known as hakunin [21:21] how can i fix this? [21:21] can i force to install them? [21:22] thanks for the help SunTsu and bekks :) [21:22] rethus: what are you trying to do? [21:22] Hey I just installed xbmcbuntu on my computer and I really need some assistance [21:22] I can't even get the internet to work and everytime I attempt to open xbmc it crashes back to log in or back to xbxmcbuntu [21:22] install plasma desktop [21:23] apb: it doesn't make a difference, it's all mass storage over USB [21:23] rethus: maybe try installing kubuntu-desktop [21:23] Can someone help me with configuring my new installing? [21:24] this has also many of this entrys [21:25] What program controls messages such as "The program foobar is not currently installed. You can install it by typing: apt-get install foobar."? I'm getting an erroneous error message from this when running a command that exists. [21:25] anyone know what the cqueue/# kernel process is? [21:25] I don't understand, where this flag is set, that this needed pachages are not able to install [21:25] can someone help me figur eout how to install the internet on ubuntu for frodo? [21:26] rethus: can you pastebin the entire msg? That would help me follow along, even if it isn't in english. [21:27] :D how? I have no x [21:27] rethus: some command | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us [21:28] can i pipe the output to this? [21:28] rethus: yes to the curl command [21:28] it returns an url [21:28] rethus: there is also pastebinit: command | pastebinit [21:28] Nice. [21:28] love the sprunge.us [21:29] has GHeP behind the url [21:29] Sertilios: xbmcbuntu is not supported here: try #xbmc [21:29] rethus: paste the url here [21:29] I just have a sprunge script that I use: http://sprunge.us/DFGP?bash [21:30] http://sprunge.us/GHeP [21:30] Then I do stuff like this in vim: :'<,'>w !sprunge [21:31] cool stuff, that sprunge.us [21:31] SunTsu: Normally I would have assumed that was true... but then I noticed some of the enclosures say things like "Support for Windows 7 and MacOS"... so when I see things like that I try to exercise a little extra due diligence before plunking down cash I don't really have. [21:31] rethus: what happens when you run sudo apt-get install plasma-desktop [21:31] rethus: is this a 13.04? [21:32] http://sprunge.us/KEAH [21:33] rethus: and plasma-widgets-workspace? [21:34] http://sprunge.us/TfiZ [21:34] rethus: is this a 13.04? [21:34] 12.04 [21:34] is it possible to create an application that automatically downloades torrents for you? [21:34] tripple: anything is possible [21:34] There's something that ubuntu adds to bash that causes it to check apt for whether or not a package is installed when running a command. Where is this? [21:34] tripple: that's what torrent clients are for [21:34] rethus: run an apt-get update and try again - just to make sure [21:34] !deluge [21:34] deluge is a Bittorent client, created using Python and GTK+, intended to bring a native, full-featured cliekt to !GTK environments such as GNOME and Xfce. See http://deluge-torrent.org/ for more information or the package 'deluge-torrent' in the package repositories. [21:34] have still done that [21:34] !bittorrent [21:34] Some torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus/Vuse (Java), !Frostwire (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/help/faq - See also !P2P [21:34] i mean like lets say another edition of something u want comes out every week [21:35] an application that does this automatically [21:35] rethus: what about the output of apt-cache policy on some of these packages? [21:35] ubottu: these clients do this? [21:35] tripple: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [21:35] tripple: there are services that provide rss feeds for that, else how would the client know? [21:35] rethus: or maybe I should ask how you got in this mess? [21:35] tripple: that's no problem - try perl or python or something like that [21:35] what the command for it? [21:35] apt-get policy ? [21:36] rethus: run an apt-get -f install [21:36] but when i develop how does it work?? does it just add onto the previous link? [21:36] rethus: apt-cache policy packagename [21:36] like if it was kat.ph/movie1 [21:36] goes to [21:36] kat.ph/movie2 [21:36] ? [21:36] tripple, deluge and qbitorrent i think can subscribe to torrent rss feeds etc [21:37] Hello All, I have a vm running Ubuntu from Ubuntu and it has been running fine for months until last night I rebooted the vm and it is now stuck on "Boot from (hd0,0) ext4 - Starting up ... Here is my libvirt.log http://pastebin.com/yArg0FaP [21:37] http://sprunge.us/EGDV [21:38] but i want to build my own! [21:38] tripple: then you have to use your brain and think about how todo it [21:38] Yes u are rite... [21:38] TRUUEE [21:38] tripple, then use e.g. bash or puthon [21:38] python* [21:38] tripple: Maybe sickbeard? [21:38] tripple: this is an ubuntu support channel... what you're asking for isn't really ubuntu support [21:39] I've installed the 12.04.3 Kernel-Upgrade. Aftes this, i could login, but no window-border appaer. So i try to got this to work, and step by step i had a messed up system now, without kde at all. [21:39] ill slither off into my sleep.... [21:39] until next time... [21:39] rethus: can you run apt-get -f install ? [21:39] rethus: I would keep trying to install packages, until you get a more meaningful message. Maybe try plasma-dataengines-workspace next [21:39] Hey there! I heard 13.10 drops tomorrow. Is upgrading still as unsafe as it used to be? Im on 13.04 [21:39] So I had Ubuntu running on a P4 box, I went ahead and moved the HDD and the CPU to another box which has more RAM and a discrete video card. Now I'm having weird graphical artifacts. Is this because I need to get me some video card drivers? [21:39] does nothing at all [21:40] Note: Everything else works fine, or seems to at least. [21:40] say its all ok [21:40] :( [21:40] rethus: that means that your packages are fine [21:40] rethus: dpkg --get-selections | grep -v install [21:40] rethus: ? sudo apt-get install plasma-dataengines-workspace says it is already installed? [21:41] dpkg returns nothing [21:41] i try [21:41] rethus: then there aren't any blocked packages [21:41] i'd try a different mirror [21:41] just 4 fun [21:41] also an dependency error [21:42] rethus: try a different mirror [21:42] kde-pim runtime [21:42] maybe you hit something in between updates [21:43] rethus: grimeton might be right. You can still keep following the error if you like, by trying to install kde-pim next, so on and so forth [21:43] Hi all: Just upgraded a 10.04 computer to 13.04 (Ubiquity on the live CD allowed this), but after an apt-get upgrade the network is no longer connecting (Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5751 Gigabit PCI). Network Manager still lists the device, but it never connects. Known problem? If so, easy fix? [21:43] I've done this for the last 6 hours [21:44] turn arround and arround and around [21:44] rethus: it's a 12.04.3 lts? [21:44] same stuff all the time [21:44] yes [21:44] rethus: installed as 12.04.3 or updated from an earlier version? [21:45] i don't know, i think bare installation. [21:45] rethus... yes, and I suggested enabling ALL of the standard repositories, hours ago [21:45] it was some time ago [21:45] rethus: oh, and maybe try aptitude. That can have much better error messages in these regards [21:45] rethus: can you do a dpkg -l and pipe that to sprunge? [21:46] is it a server or a desktop install? [21:46] ObrienDave: ? [21:46] rethus: one last suggestion: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop^ with the ^ post the output of that [21:47] http://sprunge.us/HVfY [21:47] ok [21:47] rethus: is this an i386 or an amd64 setup?

It is more designed for this [21:55] same stuff [21:55] rethus: you want to pick the solution that downgrades the various packages [21:56] trying the whole day with dpkg, apt-get and aptitude [21:56] whats that ppa-purge?

[22:08] spydon: as i said: there is no specific release time. [22:08] k1l: ok, thanks. [22:08] spydon: and if you know that already from the last years why do you ask? [22:09] k1l: that there is no time or about the channel? [22:09] Last year there was some people with rough estimations [22:09] that there is no specific time. (but the question was more rhetorical) [22:09] Can someone help? http://hastebin.com/mepeqosori.vhdl [22:10] hello all [22:10] k1l: there is no specific official time, that doesn't mean that nobody knows. ;) [22:10] i just notice medibuntu disapeared, anyone can tell what to do to install w32codecs please ? [22:10] I am using crunch bang 11 but they are not helping at all with this problem for some reason. http://hastebin.com/mepeqosori.vhdl [22:10] i think unbuntu files are same as crunch? [22:10] right? [22:10] basedgod: please see the crunchbang support [22:11] #ubuntu-jp [22:11] they are not helping -_- [22:11] hello [22:11] they are ignoring me [22:11] isn't it the same file tho? [22:11] basedgod: please see if there are other support ways for crunchbang. its not supported in here [22:12] what does modprobe do? Every time I reboot my ubuntu install, I need to run "sudo modprobe -rfv rtl8192cu" and "sudo modprobe -v 8192cu" to get my stupid WiFi dongle to connect to my network [22:13] MrKB... you can put those commands in a script file and auto run it on boot [22:13] MrKB: try adding the names to /etc/modprobe http://stackoverflow.com/questions/225845/how-do-i-configure-modprobe-to-find-my-module [22:13] ObrienDave: That sounds like a good idea [22:13] ChogyDan: Hi, I'm getting the "It works!" page so I think everything's working [22:13] ChogyDan: but what directory do I place my PHP directories in? [22:14] *Php applications [22:14] ChogyDan But why is that though? What is happening that those commands need to be run all the time? [22:14] Guest26179: yeah, sounds like it. /var/www i think [22:14] MrKB: it tells linux to load the driver [22:15] ChogyDan: Why doesn't it load automatically? Will I need to do the same with all drivers that are not near-universal? [22:16] quit [22:16] ChogyDan: Spot on, thanks [22:16] MrKB: maybe, I'm not familiar with how drivers get automatically loaded. But I don't think it is a part of default linux [22:16] ObrienDave: Do you know why? [22:17] MrKB... no, not sure, sorry [22:17] ChogyDan ObrienDave: Ok thanks guys :) [22:19] ت [22:19] i have an asus n76vz, how can i find out, which intel-driver i need [22:20] when is the next lts supposed to come out? [22:21] I do not get how to register, you guys! [22:21] !14.04 [22:21] sorry [22:22] ElFizbanio, it's scheduled for next april [22:23] nice [22:23] rethus, i think intel keeps all thier chipset drivers in one package [22:24] do you know how it's named? [22:26] Just want to get on another channel and don't know how. That page on registering doesn't make sense. I don't know where the "server" is to type any info. [22:26] How can I permanently set softtabstop for vim? [22:26] no rethus [22:26] karen_: try /join #otherChannel [22:26] I have downloaded a .tar.bz2 file (there's also a .tgz available to me if that would work better) of SuperPI. How do I go about installing such a program on 12.04? [22:27] I do try that, but when I type in, for example, Linux, it takes me there, but it says that I can't connect to it. [22:27] if i startx, i got a message that no screens found [22:27] how can i configure them [22:28] karen, try /join ##Linux [22:29] Does anybody know what time we will be expecting ubuntu 13.10 final and it's flavors? Here in NZ we have 17-th already [22:29] k, will try [22:29] erik_EE: probably over 24 hours away [22:29] erik_EE, its 10/16 6pm'ish here in the us [22:29] erik_EE, join #ubuntu-release-party and you will notice when [22:30] ok thanks! [22:30] dont know [22:30] I'm zsyncing the current build. I'm going to be ready ;) [22:31] it's already available if you know where to get it [22:31] Hey all - anyone know why Ubuntu 12.04 won't save my brightness settings? Every time I restart the brightness is very low and I have to bring it back up manually. [22:31] o.k. it says ##Linux Cannot send to channel [22:32] anyone here try edubuntu? [22:32] Wash_Jones... set it where you want, save current session in "Sessions and Startup" [22:32] becouse is /join #linux no #Linux [22:33] I should write that better. It says, "##Linux :Cannot send to Channel" [22:33] !register | karen_ [22:33] karen_: Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode [22:33] asc232: irc channels are case insensitive. [22:34] o.k. but I don't get where to type in all that info they say to type in. They say to type that in your "server". Where is that? [22:34] Thanks - where do I modify sessions and startup? All I'm seeing is "Startup Applications" [22:34] karen_: where you are typing now [22:34] Just out of curiosity! Has anyone managed to get AMD/Intel switchable graphic work properly in linux? I have Aspire timeline x with AMD HD 5650 and Intel switchable graphics. [22:35] OH! o.k. [22:35] karen, its fine to type it in here as well, we won't see the command [22:35] but if i type /join #Linux [22:35] Wash_Jones... not sure where in Ubuntu. I run Xubuntu ;)) [22:35] How can I permanently set softtabstop for vim? [22:35] I got No pudo entrar a #Linux (El canal es sólo para invitados). [22:35] asc232: the channel is "##linux" not "#linux" [22:36] !es | asc232 [22:36] asc232: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. [22:36] sorry [22:36] Well that still sounds like a good start, thanks! Anyone in #Ubuntu running Ubuntu..? [22:36] asc232, he wasnt following chat [22:37] Wash_Jones... most of THEM do ;)) [22:37] hi all - have a quick q. Haven't been able to find on google. Any idea how I can change cursor blink frequency if running a tty console? - cursor seems to be very frantic want to slow it down a bit. [22:37] pilotte: likely via your ~/.vimrc file. You probably want to ask #vim for more details though. [22:43] ping [22:44] pong [22:44] Oh my gosh, what a mess up in registering. Someone needs to explain those instructions a little better. I didn not register right. === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away [22:45] rails dev materials [22:46] meajagun: try to talk in sentences, rather than keywords [22:50] Question: I'm working on getting a wireless card with the rt3573 chipset. It won't change channels in monitor mode. Anyone have ideas? [22:51] uhhh did you guys see that? [22:52] see what? [22:52] my e-mail address and my password or is it hid from you. I'm trying to register. [22:53] lol. we didn't see that. [22:53] karen_: join #freenode and ask for help if you need help/confirmation [22:53] karen_: what registration are you talking about? nickserv? [22:53] no didn't see anyhing besides a screen flicker and smoke. [22:53] ya [22:53] however you should do that in the channel window and not here. Just to be safe. So you don't post it in channel. [22:53] Where is the channel window? [22:53] er. I mean server window [22:53] where is that? [22:53] karen_: as systemd0wn said, better try that in a window not used for a channel [22:54] ohhh [22:54] try again, I will [22:54] karen_: didn't see any password, but better be safe than sorry [22:54] I don't know what client your using. But for me on the left side is a list of the channels (rooms) I'm in. Then above that is one named "freenode" that's my server window. It lists all the connection stuff. === fourq is now known as lowcard === lowcard is now known as fourq [23:01] Anyone know a way I can script "switch to previously focused window and type some characters" [23:06] I just installed 13.04 and my touchpad doesn't work.. === SDr_ is now known as SDr [23:16] how long should mkfs.ntfs take to format a 4t drive? [23:17] its not a quick format as far as i know.. so i would say some time. :) internal or external hd? [23:17] ex [23:17] :) [23:17] using linux to make ntfs.....bad [23:17] well life sucks when its all ata data cneter [23:17] external usb2 or usb3 ? [23:17] id use reisserfs meself [23:17] :) [23:17] usb2 [23:18] what u think this is goole? [23:18] lol [23:18] chaotic_good: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:18] not sure how that changes anything that it's in a data center [23:18] aka i cant get at it ez === chaotic_good is now known as genius_blueyes [23:18] so ? [23:18] :) [23:18] why are you using ntfs on linux [23:18] well I cant plug it into mylaptop and say FORMAT === kat is now known as Guest41252 [23:19] i whuld think it would be more impront as to what is the Main os thats going to be accessing the drive. [23:20] I gota move file onto external drive [23:20] then go get it [23:20] and then a dev will plug int inot local win machine [23:20] here at office [23:20] :) [23:21] ...so again, why are you formatting it with ntfs [23:21] genius_blueyes... a slow format could take 24 hours or so on USB2 [23:21] actually, I'm past caring, do what you want [23:22] I wonder can linux pass the quickformat [23:22] ? [23:22] mkntfs has an -f param [23:22] read a man page sometime :) [23:22] ah ha!! [23:22] im havin trouble cancelling my mkfs.ntfs job [23:22] heh [23:22] Gparted can do a quick format on NTFS [23:22] pgrep -l ntfs [23:22] kill -9 numberHere [23:23] ah yes [23:23] ok [23:23] now im in biz [23:23] thx d00dz === genius_blueyes is now known as dumb_caveman [23:24] :) [23:24] hi [23:24] Why does this bash script keep saying to use sleep --help? http://pastebin.com/HkXnEq82 [23:24] Hmm. Noticed somthing quirky. I don a 'nmap -sP 192.168.11.* on my home lan to see what pcs are up.. seems that sometimes it actually replies with the host names and the ip. some times it dosent.. cant seem to figure out why its differing at times [23:25] oh no! Dr_Willis has a question! be still my heart ;) [23:26] and i am evening reading the nmap man page. ;) [23:26] just now it showed the MAC addresses for the machines.. but not the hostname. [23:26] Dr_Willis: try running a working dns server? :) [23:26] cuddylier: probably because sleep takes an interval indicator; s for seconds, m for minutes [23:26] so im sort of confused as to why the out differs 3 differnt ways. on the same machine [23:26] I see [23:27] SunTsu: it gave the hostnames earlier today when i ran a nmap from the console. now im ssh;d in and its not acting the same way. [23:27] cuddylier: only it works fine without it over here :p [23:27] Yeah.. [23:27] Weird.. [23:27] #bash === VorteX|AFK is now known as CapTech [23:29] reisio: sleep: invalid time interval `10s\r' [23:29] So it's using stuff from the previous line? [23:30] cuddylier: oh [23:30] cuddylier: dos2unix [23:30] reisio: What do you mean by dos2unix? [23:30] it fixes newlines [23:32] good old carrage return + new line, vs just using carrage returns.. :) been dealiong with this for decades [23:32] or was it just newlines.. [23:32] dos2unix is an alias for recode [23:32] recode ibmpc:lat1 [23:32] or recode ibmpc..lat1 [23:32] depending on the version [23:32] cuddylier: so this is in a script? how was the script edited? [23:33] Using notepad++ [23:33] On my PC [23:33] Then I uploaded it via FTP [23:33] cuddylier: on a WINDOWS pc.. [23:33] Yep.. [23:33] that put the extra charactes in. :) [23:33] I'll redo it in nano [23:33] hallo everyone! [23:33] some text editors can show the special characters. Im not sure nano can [23:34] each line most likely has an extra whitespace/character at the end. [23:34] took me ages to find this once., [23:34] it's a carriage return, newline on windows and just a newline on unices [23:36] question: I'm working on installing the Rivendell radio program on this computer, and I want it to save sound files to an external hard drive [23:36] Yeah, all good now ;) [23:36] i've found the local folder where the files are stored [23:36] is there a way to make that folder reference a folder on the external? [23:36] krnl-radio: it's called a symlink [23:36] krnl-radio: man ls [23:36] eer [23:36] man ln [23:37] lol [23:37] kk [23:38] k, that makes sense [23:38] do i have to do anything to the folder that already exists to be able to link the external HDD folder to it? [23:38] krnl-radio: yeah, delete it [23:38] okay [23:39] and then it'd be ln -s HDD_folder_path local_folder_path [23:39] ? [23:39] yes [23:39] kk [23:39] awesome! [23:39] thanks [23:39] krnl-radio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:39] heh? [23:39] Is there someone who knows about LUKS andLVM on? [23:39] i'm not sure. I guess it wants me to use periods instead of new lines... [23:40] Yowl: yes [23:40] krnl-radio: i guess it's just not configured correctly [23:40] What does it mean for LVM to be inside LUKS, or visa versa? grimeton [23:41] Yowl: lvm inside luks means that the volume manager can only access the volumes the moment the decryption takes place [23:41] Yowl: it's pretty useless this way [23:41] Yowl: do it the other way around [23:41] encryption on top of a volume [23:41] this way it makes more sense, gives you more flexibility and makes management a lot easier [23:42] half the point of lvm is to facilitate encryption [23:42] wut? [23:42] how can I get around a usb2 limit? [23:42] fark [23:43] dumb_caveman: ? [23:43] grimeton: I need to understand this on a more basic level, what qualifies as "inside". How do you make LVM be "inside" of LUKS? How do you stuff LUKS inside LVM? [23:43] Yowl: you have to think of it as layers [23:43] I wish I hadz usb3 [23:43] on this server [23:43] woo weee [23:43] Yowl: you have the harddrive, which is the lowest layer [23:44] Yowl: on top of that comes a partition [23:44] (we assume this for now) [23:44] then you put the encryption on top of the partition using luks [23:44] and then you put lvm on top of the encrypted luks partition [23:44] on top of that you put a lvm volume [23:44] on top of that volume a filesystem [23:45] and then you store stuff in that filesystem [23:45] this way lvm is INSIDE luks, as luks is a layer below LVM [23:45] the LVM stuff is only visible to the system when the decryption of the luks partition is taking place [23:45] grimeton: What do you mean "put LVM on top"? By putting LVM on, do you mean assigning a volume that does not correspond with your partitions? [23:46] riddle me this: how is lvm over 8 drives better than raid 0 hardware raid? [23:46] Yowl: hm, let's explain it different [23:46] Yowl: you got your harddrive, let's say it is /dev/sda [23:46] Yowl: then you create your partition "on top" which becomes /dev/sda1 [23:46] whats luks? [23:47] dumb_caveman: this is support not chat. [23:47] dumb_caveman: because hardware raid is asking for problems in case the hw controller breaks and you need to replace it [23:47] on top of this partition you create luks encryption which gives you a new device when you decrypt the partition, let's name it /dev/mapper/sda1.dec [23:47] what if the boot disk grub dies? in softraid? [23:47] dumb_caveman: LUKS is a ubuntu encryption software for encrypting hard drive content [23:47] ah [23:47] then you put lvm on /dev/sda1.dec which gives you a volume group let's call it luksvolumes [23:47] well I don't know if its specifically ubuntus, but tied with linux anyway [23:48] it will show up as /dev/luksvolumes/ [23:48] then yo create a volume on top of that, let's call it myvolume which will show up as /dev/luksvolumes/myvolume [23:48] Yowl: you see how one thing depends on the thing before and is created "on top" of it? [23:49] grimeston same issue putting LVM on, please explain this [23:49] Yowl: ehm what? [23:49] hey there... i need help [23:50] grimeton: Why do I want to turn it into "luksvolumes"? [23:50] leonardo_: yes, yes you do [23:50] how can I open a mac particion on xubuntu? [23:50] Yowl: it's just a name that i used to show what happens next [23:50] leonardo_: you can't [23:50] at leat not in a safe way [23:50] least [23:50] thanx [23:50] holaaa [23:50] what? [23:51] shalom [23:51] grimeton: I know its not about the name, but why do I want LVM to make any change to the block device? [23:51] leonardo_: just mount it [23:51] pene [23:51] tits [23:51] leonardo_: sudo modprobe hfsplus beforehand if required [23:51] Yowl: because lvm sits "on top" of those block devices and uses them to store its data [23:51] perra [23:51] shit [23:51] oh... thanx reisio.... I'll try === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [23:52] grimeton: dev/sda1.dec > dev/luksvolumes represents a chance in block device, or in a layer above block device, right? So why do I want to use LVM to make this change? [23:53] Yowl: you asked for an explanation of lvm inside luks and that's what it is [23:53] grimeton: Please answer the question so that I might understand your explanation of LVM inside of LUKS. [23:54] Yowl: you have to create a volume group if you want to use lvm [23:54] yo dawgz [23:54] please reisio... the mac particion is already mouted on xubuntu... but I can open some directories [23:54] my packages be broke [23:54] and that's what this change does. it creates the volume group on top of sda1.dec [23:55] i don't have permission [23:55] grimeton: So in order for LVM to help me more safely resize a partition, I need it to create a volume group first? [23:55] MangaKaDenza: then fix them. [23:55] Yowl: lvm? resize partition? i'm not sure that you know what LVM is and what it does [23:55] grimeton: Even if the volume only represents one partition? [23:56] E: Encountered a section with no Package: header [23:56] E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_raring-updates_universe_i18n_Translation-en%5fUS [23:56] E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. [23:56] ^that damn error [23:56] yes, LVM always needs underlying devices to create volume groups and inside volumes [23:56] grimeton: Multiple sources have told me that LVM will help me resize a partition safely, or more specifically that it will help me recover the partition if the resizing goes wrong, would you say this is wrong? [23:57] Yowl: yes [23:57] MangaKaDenza: can open the sources.list? [23:57] grimeston So LVM doesn't assist in resizing a partition in any way? [23:57] Yowl: LVM doesn't even know about partitions [23:57] Yowl: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition/ResizingPartition [23:58] wilee-nilee, nope [23:58] are there, or are there coming any drivers for nvidia cards that will allow me to use my optimus hdmi port instead of having to use a mini-hdmi on my intel GPU? bumblebee is a pain in the rear... wish native drivers would work... [23:58] apb: It's not about how to resize, its about how to increase my chances of safely doing so [23:58] Yowl: LVM is a layer to make multiple drives/block devices/raid sets/anything you can store data on look as one big drive that you can then use to create "smaller drives" (block devices) that can then be used like a partition [23:58] Yowl: Type carefully [23:58] MangaKaDenza: I mean with a text editor? === batman_ is now known as Janitor [23:59] yes === Janitor is now known as Franken [23:59] I did that [23:59] apb: ? [23:59] Yowl: there is no data security involved in any way (no raid, no checksums, nothing) [23:59] Yowl: and the problem with resizing is the filesystem in most of the cases [23:59] not the partition
