[00:00] grimeston There is very little practical difference between a partition and a FS [00:01] Yowl: it's just an apple and a banana, but yes, still fruit [00:01] Yowl: You're messing with low level stuff... there is no "safe way". If the tool does it's job properly - and you don't do something silly, then it should be safe. [00:01] Yowl: you're wrong [00:01] grimeston https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Volume_Manager_(Linux) On small systems (like a desktop at home), instead of having to estimate at installation time how big a partition might need to be in the future, LVM allows file systems to be easily resized later as needed. [00:01] Yowl: that's wrong [00:01] Yowl: try to shrink xfs - if you make it, i give you 100 bucks.us [00:02] a file system is not a partition and vice versa [00:02] Yowl: the partition sets the limits for the filesystem [00:02] grimeton: I don't even know what xfs is [00:02] You can have partitions with no file system. You cannot have file systems without partitions. [00:02] Yowl: and the filesystem lives inside the partition [00:02] MangaKaDenza: looks like you must have errors, show it to the Chanel, or look at thsi website to generate an source list. http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ [00:02] apb: that's wrong too [00:02] Yowl: a partition is nothing more than an information in the partition table. Where, how large, and a type. The filesystem contains all data and meta data information [00:02] grimeton: You can have multiple different FS on a single partition? [00:02] Yowl: no [00:03] Yowl: look, you know microsoft excel? [00:03] Yowl: why do you ask at all if you don't believe what people tell you? [00:03] grimeton: Partitions need one FS to work, and FS can only be the side of a partition, so what is the great difference between them? [00:04] Yowl: it works like this: [00:04] SunTsu: When it contradicts what other people have told me, I can't equally believe contradicting statements without being crazy [00:04] Yowl: "A parking space only can hold one car, and a car can only be in one parking slot, so what's the difference?" [00:04] Yowl: you have a harddrive, which is just like a plain piece of paper [00:04] SunTsu: Not a very good analogy [00:05] vc === beastieboy is now known as banister [00:05] Yowl: at the beginning of the harddrive (yes there is gpt, and blablabla), there is a table that tells the system what partition is stored where on the harddrive, like a table at the top of the page that tells people where to sign on it [00:05] SunTsu: Nor is it true, a car can park across multiple parking spots, or not park in one at all [00:06] Yowl: the kernel then reads the table and sees that there is a partition with a filesystem that is linux compatible (83), starting at row five and going to row 10 [00:06] grimeton: I do not know microsoft excel [00:06] Yowl: and then the filesystem is put between row 5 and row 10, e.g. the person can use row 5 to 10 to sign there [00:06] Yowl: you want to read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_partitioning [00:06] BEFORE you read anything about volume managers [00:07] Yowl: yeah, a filesystem can span multiple partitions, too, you just need to force it. And there can be no filesystem in a partition at all, and a partition can cover a whole device... [00:07] Yowl: imagine a book. the book is your hard drive. Each page is a partition - it defines the space you have, but on it's own it is a blank paper. And then your text is your filesystem, your data :) [00:07] SunTsu: It doesn't span the partitions, would just be the same on each partition [00:08] Yowl: No. [00:08] and now the specialities: you can have a filesystem on a disk without a partiton, you can let your filesystem span multiple partitions, you can sub partition your filesystem, you can have a filesystem on top of a volume inside a volume manager spanned over multiple, interrupted partitions about multiple block devices [00:08] Good analogy faugusztin ... except that the file system would be more like the index of the book. [00:08] i heard that some people have usb thumbdrive raid 6 setups with those 48 port usb2 hubs [00:08] grimeton: and even better, there are virtual filesystems on top of other filesystems :D [00:08] apb: no, that would be the partition table/gpt [00:09] faugusztin: Well as far as I know the FS would be the printer, font, and page layout that provides the layout for your words on the page in that analogy [00:09] faugusztin: yeah and you can have zfs [00:09] I mean foundation for the words [00:09] which is pretty much xfs on lvm [00:09] grimeton: i was personally thinking about mhddfs, which joins multiple filesystems on virtual level to one, single, pooled filesystem :D [00:09] grimeton: zfs is very different from xfs, zfs is more akin to git on file level [00:09] What is terminal command to see which version Ubuntu you are currently working in? [00:10] SunTsu: ehm wot? [00:10] er file system level [00:10] clifter: lsb_release -r [00:10] clifter: cat /etc/issue [00:10] SunTsu: ehm wot? [00:10] grimestone Partition is the mapping for kernals to find things, and FS is the data infrastructure, right? [00:10] Yowl: yeah that covers it pretty much === karen is now known as Guest5642 [00:11] grimeton: Yeah, but for practical purposes, they are the same thing, you can't resize a FS without resizing the partition or visa versa (unless there isn't a FS) [00:11] grimeton: Thanks Going into my Terminal Notes for safe keeping :) [00:11] How does one register for this xchat? Do I need to? [00:12] faugusztin: Thanks as well.... [00:12] grimeton: UNless I am wrong? [00:12] Yowl: the thing is: it's about the order of things: if you want to grow a filesystem you have to grow the partition first [00:12] grimeton: I know that [00:12] Yowl: and if you want to shrink a partition you have to shrink the filesystem first [00:12] oh [00:12] right [00:13] grimeton: zfs is build very much like git, storing hashed objects, snapshots are done similar to what git does with branches and so on [00:13] Yowl: that's because the filesystem lives *inside* the partition [00:13] Yowl: the filesystem is like the liner of a garbage can. [00:13] SunTsu: ehm, zfs is nothing else than software raid, lvm and xfs in one thing [00:13] grimeton: When you resize a partition, it's resizing the FS that puts your data in potential jeopardy, right? [00:14] resizeing always has risks [00:14] backup the data first [00:14] But is that where the risk lies? [00:14] Yowl: if you shrink the partition before you shrink the fs, then the end of the fs is lost, that's where it gets tricky ... [00:14] hard drives can die at any time.. rember that. [00:14] Has anyone used touchegg? [00:14] I cant get it to work [00:14] power failure during a resize - is also a VERYbad thing [00:14] grimeton: Right, not trying to do that. But please answer my question [00:15] SunTsu: you got your pools (raid, lvm) and on top of that the filesystems [00:15] grimeton: I get what your saying, so you don't need to explain any more about FS and partitions, please switch tracks [00:15] grimeton: When you resize a partition, it's resizing the FS that puts your data in potential jeopardy, right? [00:16] Yowl: the real dangerous task is shrinking... growing isn't really a problem [00:16] grimeton: I am told even growing has risks [00:16] Yowl: yeah, crossing the street is dangerous too [00:16] grimeton: Is that statement correct or not? [00:16] Yowl: there is always a risk, that's why you have a backup [00:17] grimeton: Is it the resizing of the FS where the risk lies, yes or no??? [00:17] Yowl: it has because you need to change the filesystem, change size information, create new meta data structure and such. Things can fail horribly [00:17] SunTsu: http://pastebin.com/k9C0yvZd [00:18] Yowl: resizing the partition is less risky but you need to resize the fs to take advantage of your new size and especially when shrinking not accidentally destroy your data that lies in a different partiotion all of a sudden [00:19] grimeton: this is supposed to tell me what exactly? [00:19] SunTsu: So if I were to resize the partition but left the FS the same size, (leaving aside the issue that this would be pointless) I could still damage data? [00:19] SunTsu: that you have never seen a zfs pool status overview and that you want to read about zfs again [00:20] Yowl: yes [00:20] So, how do you get invited to talk on Linux channel? [00:20] ZFS is awesome. In general, I've never had problems with resizing Ext3/4 LVMs. [00:20] grimeton: I have seen a lot of zfs pool opoverviews and especially I have taken courses teaching zfs details... [00:20] grimeton: But the majority of the risk lies in resizing the FS? [00:21] Yowl: yes [00:21] SunTsu: and still you compare it to git? [00:21] karen_: some channels require you to hve a regriestered/identified nick [00:21] grimeton: And LVM knows nothing of FS? [00:21] !regiester [00:21] ZFS is great so many things. I still use raid for OS partitions though. [00:21] !register [00:21] 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 [00:21] Yowl: no, lvm just deals with block devices [00:21] well, I thought I was. Tell me again how to do? [00:22] PimpSmurf, raid isn't a file system [00:22] Yowl: depends. When you grow the partition and leave the fs intact: not much risk, you only run the risk of destroying the partition info with all your data intact. [00:22] karen_: you did Identify to the service bots when you connected? [00:22] bean: can't use raid with ZFS [00:22] bean: which is why what I said makes sense. [00:22] what do you mean service bots? [00:22] bean: zfs handles everything on its own, including raid, volume management and filesystem stuff [00:22] right [00:23] karen_, what question do you have for ##linux... [00:23] bean: that's why what pimpsmurf said makes sense [00:23] Yowl: shrink your partition and leave your fs intact: Yes, very much risk, because you could destroy the partition info AND probably will kill your data when creating a new filesystem in the next partition [00:23] I have resized (grow and shrink) file systems and lvm volumes sooo many times and never experienced a problem. [00:23] If you use ZFS on a raid v-volume, ZFS losing direct control over sectors (which is how it recovers data from damaged sectors automatically) [00:23] PimpSmurf: zfs has zraid [00:24] SunTsu: I rather figured trying to squeeze a FS into a too small container would create all sorts of issues [00:24] right, thats more what I was confused about. Saying you use Raid instead of ZFS is a bit of a misnomer, since zfs can do zraid. [00:24] SunTsu: I stopped using it and instead have 1 disk on each of my clusters ZFS. They all backup each other like a giant raid array. [00:24] Yowl: that's what I wrote, didn't I? [00:24] I got the idea because Cassandra DBA's recommend not using raid (or using raid 0) on the cassandra DB volume [00:25] SunTsu: Since partitioning is mapping for the kernal, it would be like having data lost in unknown unmapped territory [00:25] Because cassandra does it's own redundancy. I wish I could use Raid 0 with ZFS and somehow tell the raid controller not to mark sectors [00:25] SunTsu: I just said I already figured what you told me [00:25] Well, it's the same one I think that I asked last night, but had to go. I have two dell desktop towers that are connected to the internet with belkin n600 db v. 2 wireless adapters and they weren't cheap to buy. I have tried everthing to connect to the internet even using given modules and ones I put in there to try that weren't given. I have read online of many accounts of people with this situation and even Ndiswrapper wouldn't work fo [00:25] r them. What can I do and is there a distro that supports this driver? [00:25] grimeton: yes, I do compare them, the filesystem itself works very much like git does, I was not talking about the whole zpool handling, only about the way data is handled [00:26] hi! anyone thats makes me help on TCOS with ubuntu server 12.04.3 ? Boot on client fails: File not found when pxe is initialising... sorry for my english, i'm spanish! [00:26] SunTsu: and zpool isn't part of that? [00:27] grimeton: So block device is a layer above the FS, and the LVM only manages block devices, so would offer no protection in FS resizing? [00:27] karen_, isn't a belkin n600 a router? [00:27] Yowl: block devices is the layer UNDER the fs, your harddrive is a block device... [00:27] Yowl: data would NOT be lost directly, only if you try to write data to the part of the disk where it should not be, outside of the partition. It still could work when you don't write data there. [00:27] grimeton: it's a different layer than what I was talking about [00:28] yes, belkin is a router, but you can buy the usb wireless adapters at Best Buy for internet connection. [00:28] i am trying to install a package and it asks me for Ubuntu 13.04 _Raring Ringtail_ - Release amd64 (20130424) in /media/cdrom [00:28] !es | ubper [00:28] ubper: 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. [00:28] grimeton: According to online sources block devices are files, not physical items, and that each partition represents one block device, even if they exist all on the same actual hard drive, is that wrong? [00:28] karen_, ... I'm aware that belkin makes routers. What is the exact model of the wireless adapter? [00:29] Yowl: those files represent your disk, the _actual_ block device [00:29] because it's a device that is read and written ion blocks, you know? [00:29] bean: my best guess karen_ talks about http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F9L1101/ [00:29] Yowl: _EVERYTHING_ on unix represents a file (descriptor), what kind of, is a different discussion, but /dev/sda is a file descriptor for a block device [00:29] s/ion/in/ [00:29] Now, I'm not sure what you mean when you ask for model, accept that it's belkin N600 DB v2001 [00:29] SunTsu: Each partition is it's own block device, even if they are all on the same actual hard drive, yes or no? [00:29] karen_, so, this? http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F9L1101/ [00:30] o.k. I'll try it. Thanks [00:30] i am trying to install a package and it asks me for Ubuntu 13.04 _Raring Ringtail_ - Release amd64 (20130424) in /media/cdrom [00:30] wolfy1339... disable the CD in your sources list [00:30] Yowl: yes [00:30] karen_, please read, i was just asking if that was what you have. [00:30] Yowl: I really don't like to play this game anymore. Please, go read about basic disk handling, partitions and filesystems, I don't think this is the channel to educate you, this is the ubuntu support channel [00:30] grimeton: Then block device is not your actual hard drive... [00:30] * grimeton gives up [00:31] karen_, do you know if that're broadcom or realtek? [00:31] sda is a block device.. sda1 is a block device.. sdz99 is a block device.. if it exists [00:32] Dr_Willis , LVM exists in a layer above the FS, and knows nothing about the the FS? [00:32] How do you tell? [00:32] Yowl: i dont use lvm. go read the lvm docs/guides [00:33] karen_, can you pastebin the output of "sudo lshw -class network" [00:33] Yowl, yes, LVM is above the FS, You have volume groups, then the logical volume. [00:33] which just presents a block device. [00:34] bean and knows nothing about FS? [00:34] correct. [00:34] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Volume_Manager_%28Linux%29 [00:34] lvm!! [00:34] its pisser! [00:34] I learned lvm from the archlinux guide, is the ubutu one nice too? [00:34] does network have to do anything with this? Because, I'm using the same network on my laptop that I'm typing to you on with Ubuntu and everything connects. I'm thinking it's the wireless adpater that I have connected to my desktops that Linux doesn't see. [00:35] karen_, do what i aksed please. pastebin the output of "sudo lshw -class network" [00:35] dumb_caveman: did you learn a reason to use it? [00:35] But, I will do that if you like..o.k. hang on [00:35] Dr_Willis: Before you tell me to read online, I just got through learning how a online wiki source got it wrong, so... [00:36] hey guys, I was checking the ubuntu release schedule .. I rarely do that .. and realized there is a release today ahah xP [00:36] karen_, there should be something like "Broadcom" or "RealTek" in the output. [00:36] Dr_Willis: Unless you know about LVM and can personally vouch for the information, but you just said you don't know it [00:36] you know what, I'm new to ubuntu, where do I find the termianl. I had Lubuntu before. [00:36] Yowl: not my problem. and this is sort of gotten beyoned ubuntu support related. [00:36] oops terminal [00:36] Yowl: perhaps go find a lvm channel [00:37] karen_, you seem to be way in over your head... [00:37] ya hahaha [00:37] Howdy folks -- I'm seeing an odd issue w/ enabling ksm on my machine ... I echo'd "1" > run about 15 minutes ago and yet there's still no scans performed... http://pastebin.com/ECbHBq15 [00:37] Yowl, I literally use LVM every day. [00:37] karen_: normal click the top left icon (the dash and type in 'terminal') and it should show up [00:37] Yowl: What's your issue? [00:37] * Logos01 just joined [00:37] Dr_Willis: No such thing, and unless you strictly speak of ubuntu as it's kernal and system files only, what is it but a vast bundle of various softwares [00:37] k [00:37] karen_: press and hold the super key - and it will also show a list of shortcuts [00:38] Yowl: you seem to be rambling alot - but ive not really seen you state an actual ubuntu support issue. so have a nice day.

[01:02] Regardless of whether there are shared pages, full_scans *should* be higher than 0 after 30 minutes. [01:02] o.k. I type in your command in the terminal and I get a ton of info like you just saw and then how do I use pastebinit? [01:02] zykotick9: Look at line 9, then. [01:02] It's right there. [01:02] Logos01, btw, that linux.kernel thread says that it /could/ not that it does, it has to use a different syscall to support it. [01:03] karen_: if you typed "lsusb | pastebinit" the outputis one line - a web URL - paste that link [01:03] bean: regardless of that, full_scans should be incrementing [01:03] It's not. [01:03] I.e.; it's not actually running. [01:04] karen_, you literally type "lsusb | pastebinit" on your command line [01:04] moppy, so I put a command in the terminal, I get a ton of info, I type out "lsusb | pastebinit" in the next command spot and see a url to paste to you? [01:05] open a terminal window, type in "lsusb | pastebinit" and you get 1 line [01:05] karen_, just type "lsusb | pastebinit" this is not hard. [01:05] OR, do I put in the command and "lsusb | pastebinit" right next in the same command? [01:05] !isitout [01:05] The 19th release of Ubuntu, Saucy Salamander, will be out in October of 2013. [01:05] karen_, LITERALLY type "lsusb | pastebinit" [01:05] I did! [01:05] or select it and paste. :) [01:06] did you put a | ? [01:06] where? [01:06] willis@SSDBuntu:~$ lsusb | pastebinit [01:06] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6248622/ [01:06] that's a pipe not an I or letter 1 [01:06] I know [01:06] my shell 'output' [01:06] The letter 1 and number I [01:06] thats litearlly what you should see, karen_, what Dr_Willis just did. [01:06] i assume pastebinit is installed by default [01:06] oh nice, Dr_Willis, that edimax is even a little n dongle [01:06] moppy, she installed it [01:07] moppy: they instgalled it earlier [01:07] bean: yep. :) its a little slow - 150 speed. but its great for what im doing, [01:07] i need to pick up a few more of them [01:07] Dr_Willis, *shrug* as long as you're not trying to shove 1080p video over it :P [01:08] o.k. , so step 1. I put in a command in the terminal, type in my password. Step 2 press enter. What's step three, or does pastebinit go in after step 1. [01:08] zykotick9: So just out of idle curiosity have you managed to see line #9 in http://paste.ubuntu.com/6248607/ yet? [01:08] bean: actually i am doing that. :) well not 1080p . :) but my Pi - is a xbmc client [01:08] how do you find the razer deathadder, Dr_Willis ? [01:08] Dr_Willis, nice! [01:08] moppy: found it on sale for $20 :) works well. theres a razor config tool out for linux now that lets me tweak it. [01:08] karen_: password? why is lsusb asking for a password? [01:08] karen_, all on one line. "lsusb | pastebinit" the | is a pipe character, not l, not 1, not i, not I [01:09] Dr_Willis: what is the response like, and can you put weights in it easily? [01:09] moppy, the deathadder doesn't have weights. [01:09] so, your command plus "lsusb | pastebinit" all on one line? [01:09] moppy: no weights in this one.. and it can go so super senesitive - you touch it . and it goes across both monitors [01:09] karen, lsusb | pastbininit by itself [01:09] karen_, no, just that command [01:09] this is almost humerous. [01:10] karen, it will copy what you see on the terminal, and put it on an http site, and return you a link to share [01:10] what was that web site that let you post 'shell' tutorials in a movie like format from the output of the typescript command [01:11] explainshell? [01:12] Does anyone know how to coerce a i945 graphics adapter tp run two independent desktops on two monitors? I don't want an extended / large destop [01:12] oh well, at least shell is similar than sailing :-) [01:12] simpler* [01:12] andrej, ie, 2 different xserves? [01:12] bean: playterm.org ;) [01:12] ah, right Dr_Willis [01:14] karen_, figure it out yet? [01:14] bean - yah. [01:14] E.g. have one running Fluxbox, one IceWM :) [01:14] karen@karen-HP-Pavilion-dv6700-Notebook-PC:~$ [01:14] is that what you want? [01:14] thats your bash prompt. [01:14] not quite [01:15] hahaha [01:15] I did that in the past w/ both ATI & NVIdia cards with two heads, but can't seem to find a way to accomplish this w/ ubuntu [01:15] willis@SSDBuntu:~$ lsusb | pastebinit [01:15] let me see [01:15] the willis@ssd....... is my prompt ;) [01:15] andrej, man, I don't know how to do it with a single card, or really in general. Probably some crazy x config. [01:15] they really really need to make the installer not use such annoying long names for the pc;s hostname [01:16] Whelp, guess I'll go to greener pastures on getting this issue addressed... as always. Thanks for your time those who tried. [01:16] This is a longshot, but the Gnome 3 IRC is a graveyard, and you folks have been knowledgable in the past. [01:17] anyone have a guide on modifying BIOS? [01:17] I have Gnome 3.10. New custom file search functionality is pretty slick. Doesn't seem to work on NFS shares, though, which is where I store just about everything. What might be the issue? [01:17] karen_, literally copy inside my quotes "lsusb | pastebinit" into your terminal. [01:18] (running on Ubuntu, because it doesn't seem to behave under anything but that or Fedora) [01:19] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6248659/ [01:19] There! [01:19] fedora is shipping 3.10? [01:19] no? [01:19] karen_... YAY! [01:20] oh ya! [01:20] oh that a belkin n600? [01:20] i've seen that dreaded number before [01:20] Ya nasty huh? to linux [01:20] karen_, looks like realtek should provide a driver that works. [01:20] let's just say i threw it overboard [01:20] oh ya? [01:20] but YMMV. don't do that! [01:20] i'm just impatient [01:21] On Slacko Puppy I tried all the Realtek modules [01:21] karen_, http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=21&PFid=53&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#3102 lookslike it should be the "linux driver for kernel" [01:21] NoOneInParticula, 3.10 is not in any release so technically not supported here. [01:21] you mean don't do YMMV module? [01:21] karen_, one question, is your native language english? :) [01:21] ya [01:21] alright. [01:22] wilee-nilee: eh, that's right, they left it out of 13.10. [01:22] So, what do I do with your above http? [01:22] heh -> http://www.playterm.org/r/simple-test-1381972931 [01:22] how to use lsusb and pastebinit ;) [01:22] karen_, you download the kernel module... [01:22] how do you do that being not so smart here? [01:23] karen_, I'm sorry, I can't really help, I've spoon fed to you where you should get the driver. [01:23] wilee-nilee: repeating, yeah, they left it out of 13.10. I was under the impression is was 3.8 functionality as well. [01:23] I'll go find it. [01:23] thanks [01:23] Also, lol, nothing like coming into a general chat channel and watching someone talk down to someone. [01:23] karen_: askubuntu.com often has detailed guides [01:23] Spoonfed indeed, bean. [01:24] What a douche. [01:24] LOL [01:24] Dang, you guys, I come from windows not Linux. [01:24] he has no idea that I've been trying to help her for at least 30 minutes. [01:24] and I barely know how to do that. [01:25] Hi guys. It seems that my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS x86 is missing UTF-8 support. I'm getting this error message: http://pastebin.com/X2mtiNxW [01:25] Any idea? [01:25] I followed some tips about dpkg-reconfigure locales, but there's no result [01:25] thanks for your help though! [01:25] What can you do manage an ipod on ubuntu [01:26] karen_, it should be as simple as getting that zip file from the linked site, and unzipping it, and running the installer script [01:26] but i can't say for sure. [01:26] i'm trying to see pictures from my android ICS in ubuntu. the phone mounts fine and i can browse the filesystem, but when i try to open a picture it says "failed to open input stream for file" [01:26] any ideas how to access my pictures? [01:26] !ipod [01:26] For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [01:27] Hilikus... yes, you have to copy the file to your HD first. then they will open [01:27] Hmm the N600 usb wifi dongle - seems to be very very poorly supported on linux [01:27] ObrienDave: i want to open them exactly for that reason, to know what to copy and what not [01:28] Dr_Willis, yeah, her pastebin said that it's the realtek one though! [01:29] so in theory she should be able to install the kernel module [01:29] afaik you can't view them directly. not like windows can. [01:30] bean: you must be able to read more into that pastebin then i could. ;) Bus 002 Device 003: ID 050d:110a Belkin Components dosent tell me a lot. [01:30] Hilikus... which phone? I have the S4 [01:30] htc one s [01:31] just connected mine. give me a minute [01:31] Hilikus: personally i use the 'airdroid' program on my android devices. to access their stuff. === adv__ is now known as advx [01:31] the MTP filesystem stuff still seems rather hit and miss in linux [01:31] Hey folks - quick question, is there a terminal command to make sure Wine has all the necessary packages installed? I'm trying to set up Netflix Desktop on Ubuntu and Wine's saying it needs a few extra packages which it doesn't seem to want to install itself [01:31] Dr_Willis: i saw that. it looks interesting but they don't mention anything about linux [01:32] Hi all Good Morning [01:32] ! [01:32] Hilikus: for airdroid? err.. you use ANY web browser to get to your phone [01:32] Hilikus: os dosent really matter. ;) [01:32] Hi guys. It seems that my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS x86 is missing UTF-8 support. I'm getting this error message: http://pastebin.com/X2mtiNxW [01:32] I followed some tips about dpkg-reconfigure locales, but there's no result [01:32] oh really? i saw the video and it looked like macos app [01:32] Hilikus: its an android app. ;) you then use whatever browser you want. [01:33] well - links or lynx may not work. ;) but any mondern gui browser. should work ;P [01:34] there mightbe some alternatives to airdroid. but ive not seen/herd of any that were better [01:34] hello wondering where ubuntu 13.10 is I heard it was released no news on the website [01:34] niel: to be reelased on the 17th [01:35] and there is no set time [01:35] well my android countdown app lied :P [01:35] hi [01:35] is there a way to set the FSB in order to overclock using Ubuntu/Linux? [01:35] whenever a new version comes out I have to format my disk cause the updated makes it unbootable [01:36] niel: untill theubuntu site says it.. :) its not officially released [01:36] Hilikus... yea, there is something about the MTP filesystem that really buggers up the transfer [01:36] niel: weird. Ive rarely seen that issue in here mentioned [01:36] anyone here know if I am copying large files from ext4 to ntfs [01:36] what io scheduler is best? [01:36] yep I do the update and when I reboot it hangs [01:36] noop deadline or cfq [01:36] thanks guys [01:36] no body has been able to fix it so I just format and isntall [01:36] Hilikus... and if you copy and paste from the phone to Ubuntu it does not keep the file name intact [01:37] to say the least im super excited for 13.10 [01:37] why [01:38] Dr_Willis, I thin the problem is that it does not update the kernal or something [01:38] hey guys. i'm attempting to have my nfs shares from another computer mount automatically on this computer (ubuntu 12.04). I'm trying to setup using autofs, but i think I'm stumping up against the config files. I can mount everything manually fine, so i know its working. Gotta be the configs. ---> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6248728/ [01:39] Hilikus... yea, go through airdroid for now [01:40] also I heard 13.10 fixes the random freezing [01:41] bwayne: any reason you aren't just adding them to fstab? [01:42] zykotick9: tried that. i think my encrypted /home is an issue. [01:42] bwayne: ahhh, could be? well, good luck. [01:43] why midnight command have weird chars http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=1DhFZQyQ [01:44] zykotick9: also, wouldn't not having networking come up until I log in be an issue as well? i simply read that encrypted /home was an issue when reading over the nfs ubuntu help page. [01:44] Dr_Willis: does it run a web server or it sends everything through a third party web server? [01:45] bwayne: i would HOPE networking starts before you log in... i've only ever used fstab for NFS, but i don't have your "special" requirements. I've got no suggestions for you, sorry. best of luck. [01:45] Marlenee: run it with mc-a [01:45] zykotick9: ok. thx. [01:46] Marlenee: sorry, mc -a [01:46] faugusztin : np [01:46] no release party? [01:46] faugusztin : but why it have wrong chars ? [01:46] Marlenee: and it happens when the characters get redefined by something, to me it usually happens with sudo [01:46] is there missing pkg or something [01:47] Marlenee... it's in a different character set [01:48] Hilikus: yes to both parts. ;) it can do it either way, [01:48] ObrienDave : can i change this characters to the right chars [01:50] Are distros like xubuntu always behind in version compared to ubuntu? [01:51] no, they are usually current [01:51] Hilikus: seems in 13.10 i can plug in my phone. but cant play the files directly from the phone either,. (S3 phone here) [01:52] Hilikus: i think theres some mtp-fuse tools that might get around the issue. but ive not looked into it [01:52] I have all the MTP tools. still no go [01:52] Dr_Willis: i saw. some mtpfs improved version [01:52] What's up Ubuntu Nation? [01:52] $ while true; do do-release-upgrade; sleep 30; done [01:52] hey does anybody use bluefish? [01:53] more like sleep 90 ;) [01:53] My friend has said that he will give me Ubuntu (DVD) for just $50. Is there anywhere online that I can get it cheaper? [01:53] not sure how to answer that [01:53] WHAT??? you can DL it for free. not much of a friend [01:54] not sure if joke or genuine question [01:54] .... or anyone know of a text editor with an inline dictionary? [01:54] ObrienDave: I don't dl pirated stuff on my work laptop. [01:54] ok, troll, it's FREE not pirated. [01:54] assuming this is not a joke, the os is leagally free [01:55] free as in beer [01:55] legally* I cannot spell today [01:55] beer is NOT free, you have to pay rent LOL [01:56] if you wanted to spend money on Linux yoo could buy RHEL [01:56] Then you get access to support. Which ironically you mostly use when their licensing system breaks. [01:57] repudiate: type "download ubuntu" in a search engine. If you want someone to burn a DVD for you, then you (probably) have to pay someone to do it. Or you could burn one yourself. Read the license included. [01:59] There are a lot of free Linuxes. [02:00] Ubuntu has a free version too. [02:00] Thanks. [02:00] omg [02:01] Hi all [02:01] !party [02:01] Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, #edubuntu, and #lubuntu are support channels. To countdown to !Saucy release and then party once it happens, join #ubuntu-release-party - For in-person parties, see http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/2534/ [02:02] I have upgraded my ubuntu to 12.04 LTS and after that I can not connect to internet using my usb modem [02:02] im doing an upgrade from 10.4.4 to 12.04 [02:02] I have upgraded my ubuntu to 12.04 LTS and after that I can not connect to internet using my usb modem [02:02] how to automaticaly accept default setting for configuration file? [02:03] any help ? its sucking from yesterday..was tried a lot [02:03] ubuntu has a free version too... err.. they are all free last i looked. [02:04] I accidentally > a text file instead of >>. I did cat on an earlier version of the file and haven't closed the terminal yet, but my scroll limit was set to 512. Is there anyway to recover the text? [02:05] if you are lucky p014k you will have swap file [02:05] vim -r your-file.swp [02:06] please somebody help me.. [02:07] quick question concerning Ubuntu Touch, I know the preview doesn't support Neuxs 7 FLO (2013) is that an indicator that the final release won't support it either? [02:07] Is a swap file a default option? [02:07] nope [02:08] if you've edited those file with vim [02:08] I have a swap partition, i assume that's not the same. [02:08] just terminal, via >, no text editor. [02:08] it just like autosave mode on vim [02:08] then you are unlucky man [02:09] unless the file is still open in another process you're probably out of luck, p014k [02:09] Hello everyone. [02:09] Ive got a few questions. [02:09] alrighty then I'm just going to assume I'm SOL for upgrading to the Nexus 7 FLO [02:09] When is the new Ubuntu version released, how do i update from 13.10? [02:09] I have upgraded my ubuntu OS to 12.04 LTS and after that I can not connect to internet using my usb modem [02:09] sash87: which model of your modem [02:09] 13.10 is up now [02:09] at sash [02:10] Hm.

[02:10] how to i upgrade? last tiem i just dl'ed the image onto a usb [02:10] its tata photon+ usb modem [02:10] bean: So it's actually my bash_aliases file which is being sourced by the terminal. Is there a way to paste the source? [02:10] ObrienDave - Rugia says otherwise. Please confirm. [02:10] oh it's not? I must have misread [02:10] Release date is 17th October [02:10] take ObrienDave's word for it [02:11] not mine [02:11] Ubuntu really isn't my thing [02:11] Haha. [02:11] Ubuntu Touch however [02:11] So, on wiki says release data is 17th October [02:11] yes, anytime now. not official yet [02:12] I'm downloading 13.04 now [02:12] it's out [02:12] (i wish ubuntu touch was on my phone, but its too old) [02:12] 13.04 is good :) [02:12] ok, so in the next, what, 12hrs?

[02:14] 8.2 doesn't exist [02:14] 9 is next [02:15] 8 --> 8.1 --> 9 [02:15] Rugia - is Ubuntu Touch available for ALL phones but only supported on Nexus' [02:15] ? [02:15] or they could go back to 1 like xbox [02:15] idk I was trying to figure out if I can even get it on Nexus 7 FLO [02:15] but no one will tell me [02:15] i have a Samsung Galaxy Y [02:15] So cheap and useless [02:15] mmight try get it onto ubuntu [02:16] WINE on Android someday [02:16] or i risk puttin gmy acer tablet onto ubuntu, its got multiple cores. [02:16] anyway [02:16] thanks guys [02:16] have a good one. [02:16] Rugia, there is a PPA for that >> https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-nexus7/+archive/ppa [02:16] does Ubuntu 13.04 have native ISO mounting?

Can I recover it somehow? === skasznc is now known as right [02:21] p014k: i doubt it. consider is a double lesson A) be careful with > vs >> and B) have backups. [02:21] p014k, you can try "lsof | grep "bash_aliases"" [02:22] Hey folks - quick question, is there a terminal command to make sure Wine has all the necessary packages installed? I'm trying to set up Netflix Desktop on Ubuntu and Wine's saying it needs a few extra packages which it doesn't seem to want to install itself [02:23] Wash_Jones: theres a premade netflix package allreadi in some PPA's [02:23] !netflix [02:23] If you use Netflix, there is an unofficial solution for using it in Ubuntu detailed in http://www.compholio.com/netflix-desktop/ - bug reports in https://bugs.launchpad.net/netflix-desktop [02:23] Wash_Jones: also the latest webupd8 or omgubuntu site mention a way to get netflix working in linux useing some other method [02:24] Yes, that's what I've been using - the PPA worked fine, but it involves Wine as well, and it's Wine that's saying it lacks certain packages or something [02:24] I just don't get why you ppl use Ubuntu can you explain to a Windows user why you do [02:24] Wash_Jones... you need compholio PPA [02:24] sure it's free but it's so limited [02:24] p014k there is e2undel in the repo's, worth a try [02:24] So I'm just curious if there's a way to check for necessary updates or missing packages for Wine [02:24] Rugia: no viruse perhaps.. and i find windows limited. [02:24] Rugia... because WE CAN [02:24] fair enough, how so? [02:24] @ Dr [02:25] LukeL: the file wasn't deleted, it was clobbered [02:25] how so as to what part? if you want general chitchat and not support. the #ubuntu-offtopic is where to be Rugia [02:25] do clobbered files overwrite same sectors for sure? [02:26] LukeL: ? but i'd expect it too [02:26] oh ok sorry [02:26] @ Dr [02:26] people seem to have a hard time understanding they can be in more then one channel at a time. ;) heh [02:29] I have written a short script to rsync my music folders; I want to schedule it to run every hour via cron and I've done this in the past. The script runs ok; but the cron job doesn't work. [02:30] I can pastebin the contents; they are not long [02:30] Fixed it with 'alias > ~/.bash_aliases' :D [02:30] zykotick9: i know, right :P [02:30] p014k: NICE. I certainly hadn't thought of that. good going! [02:31] Dr_Willis... that would involve multi-tasking ;) [02:32] ObrienDave: but thats what these kids claim they can do all day long as they do homkework, watch video, read emails. text.. and.. well whatever else kids do these days. ;) [02:32] yea, right ;) [02:33] i'm 56 and still can't multi-task LOL [02:33] gmachine_24: common issue with cron jobs. using shortcuts to the directories. not full paths. and the commands running in sh not bash. often people put the commands in a bash script then run it from cron. === SonikkuAmerica2 is now known as SonikkuAmerica [02:34] ObrienDave: and younger people cant seem to focus on a single task :) [02:34] gmachine_24: you could pastebin the info if ya want us to lookit at it. [02:34] you're telling me??? ;) [02:34] Dr_Willis: Hi. Yeah, I remembered to use the full path (after I read a reminder to use the full path); [02:34] Dr_Willis: yes, please. it's real simple. How do I pastebin? I forgot (really) [02:35] pastebinit filename [02:35] is what i normally do [02:35] !pastebinit [02:35] pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [02:36] Dr_Willis: when I make the file executable, what command should I use? I used chmod +x filename [02:36] or filename.sh [02:36] hi guys, at what time is released 13.10 tomorrow? [02:37] !isitout [02:37] The 19th release of Ubuntu, Saucy Salamander, will be out in October of 2013. [02:37] daninoz: the time is typically not know before hand. [02:37] ubottu> NO! It's not out yet! [02:37] ObrienDave: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:38] yes, we know that and that you're female [02:38] !gender [02:38] yes, I can confirm I am a female bot :) [02:39] zykotick9: ok, thanks. [02:40] I feel like a bonehead but here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/6248932/ [02:41] gmachine_24: .sh is for your benifit. as long as its executable.. its executable ;) [02:41] dont forget to start the script with a proper #!/bin/bash line [02:42] Dr_Willis: yeah, the shebang line is there [02:42] the executable works fine [02:42] hey, hope someone can help me, i've got a server down, and i booted to a rescue cd, the drive shows up as /dev/sg2, but sg_map doesn't show it having a /dev/sd name [02:42] I just can't get it scheduled via cron [02:42] it shows /dev/sr0 for the cdrom [02:42] if i try to mount /dev/sg2 it says it's not a valid block device [02:43] paradizelost, so if you "sg_map -sd" it doesn't display the disk device [02:43] ? [02:44] * wilee-nilee listens to thick as a brick [02:44] paradizelost: isn't /dev/something standard for an optical drive [02:44] my favorite Jethro Tull album ;) [02:44] the device is listed as /dev/sg2 [02:44] what i'm trying to mount is a SAS hard drive [02:44] paradizelost: what device is listed as /dev/sg2 [02:44] gmachine_24, i'm aware what /dev/sg whatever is. [02:45] if i do lsscsi i show the drive as /dev/sg2 [02:45] sr0 is often an optical disk . :) [02:45] not sure about sg* [02:45] but where the cdroms list /dev/sr0 and 1, it just shows "-" [02:45] paradizelost: what os are you running [02:45] [3:0:0:0] disk ATA ST3160812AS J - /dev/sg2 [02:46] paradizelost, okay, "lsscsi -g" might tell you something? [02:46] it's sysresccd [02:46] that is from lsscsi -g\ [02:46] okay. [02:46] [3:0:0:0] disk ATA ST3160812AS J - /dev/sg2 < -- from lsscsi -g === Rock is now known as Rock|Mobile [02:47] what does the J mean? [02:47] i can see it's a seagate SATA 160GB but the J? [02:47] hey guys, I'm trying to run optirun after installing steam and I'm getting "ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: Could not load GPU driver" [02:47] serial number./make/model id# it looks like [02:47] I noticed that Steam installed some sort of nvidia updates but I don't remember what they were. [02:47] paradizelost, this is an ubuntu support channel, you could try booting an ubuntu rescue CD [02:48] jxcl: steam likes/wants you to hjave the latest nvidia drivers. You do have a nvidia video card? its not one of those dual gpu optimus sytems is it? [02:48] Dr_Willis... [0:0:0:0] disk ATA SAMSUNG HM500JI 2AC1 /dev/sda /dev/sg0 [02:48] it's at a site 4 hours away with an admin who doesn't know how to do anything [02:48] and i have no other access to the system [02:49] Dr_Willis: It is an optimus system, otherwise I wouldn't be trying to use optirun [02:49] it took me 3 hours to get this far along [02:49] [1:0:0:0] cd/dvd PIONEER BD-ROM BDC-TD02 1.01 /dev/sr0 /dev/sg1 [02:49] paradizelost, then you're not very likely to get help in an ubuntu support channel for a non ubuntu OS. [02:49] LVM replaces your FS and then you put the FS on top of it, so that you can't have LVM drives without deleting existing content? [02:49] i was hoping it would be a generic enough issue [02:49] jxcl: well. good luck. :) I dont know much of anything about Optimus. Its possible it installed the wrong drivers and broke the optimus/bumblebee setup [02:50] Dr_Willis: ah, shame. Thanks [02:50] paradizelost: do you know the underlying os used for the sysreccd [02:51] there was some documentation about changing the bumblebee configuration from "Driver=" to "Driver=nvidia" but when I do that it says I can't find module "nvidia" [02:51] no, i didn't give it to the guy [02:51] but it doesn't look like they have an irc room for the distro [02:51] i think it might be gentoo [02:52] paradizelost, you could try "dmesg" and see if anything disk related is in there [02:52] paradizelost: yes, it's gentoo [02:52] lsb_release -a may give details also [02:52] paradizelost: perhaps try them? 1800-gen-toot [02:53] kidding [02:53] checking #gentoo [02:53] I was not getting internet connection in my ubuntu.....it was connected to my laptoop [02:55] paradizelost, "dmesg | grep "sd"" [02:56] bean: returns nothing [02:57] without the quotes, right? [02:57] well, yeah, but he knew that. [02:57] just checking [02:57] paradizelost, damn, good luck :\ [02:57] paradizelost: yeah I came in on the middle of this. [03:00] good evening! i have a 13.04 test machine and i'd love to upgrade it to 13.10 early. what's the best way? i'd like it to also be updated to 13.10 final tomorrow evening [03:01] !ubuntu+1 | blob4000 [03:01] blob4000: Saucy Salamander is the codename for Ubuntu 13.10 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 [03:01] thanks! [03:01] blob4000: you're so close though. [03:02] !final | blob4000 [03:02] blob4000: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Saucy and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 13.10 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. [03:02] zykotick9: neat, thanks [03:03] thanks [03:04] Hi. 12.04 server. I have an external eSATA HDD with 4 bad blocks(found with badblocks -v ./dev/sdb1) which I piped to a file. How can I format or fsck that device and tell it to ignore the bad sectors? [03:06] Gabboz, if you can unmount the FS you should be able to "badblocks -n -v ./dev/sdb1" i think. [03:06] that should remap it [03:07] let me double check the man page though [03:07] bean, yeah i unmounted it before i ran badblocks [03:08] bean, that cmd is essentially what i ran... i need to import the bad-blocks file(i made with badblocks) into the HDD so it knows not to write there [03:09] Gabboz, ah, i believe it's "fsck -c /dev/sdb1" [03:09] -c apparently makes it invoke badblocks and add them to the bad blocks inode [03:09] Gabboz: I just run e2fsck -v -c -c etc. and that ids the bad files and writes info if possible to new sectors [03:10] sorry, not bad files; bad sectors [03:10] bean, i might have it.. fsck.ext4 -l bad-blocks /dev/sdb1 looked like it did the trick [03:10] ahh so badblocks executable can do this in 1 step? good to know. [03:10] apparently. [03:10] yeah, -l being the bad blocks file looks like it can do it too [03:11] As a result, it is much simpler and safer to use the -c option to e2fsck, since it will assure that the correct parameters are passed to the badblocks program [03:11] according to the man page [03:11] ok. i am not worried about the data anyway.. its an rsnapshot volume [03:12] valid. [03:15] bean, if i were to reformat that HDD, would the bad blocks be lost? I don't know where that info is stored. [03:15] !info testdisk | Gabboz [03:15] Gabboz: testdisk (source: testdisk): Partition scanner and disk recovery tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.13-1ubuntu2 (raring), package size 516 kB, installed size 1201 kB [03:16] Gabboz, I believe, since inodes are a filesystem concept [03:16] lotuspsychje, thanks but i found the bad blocks and it don't appear to be growing.. [03:16] ok [03:16] i should be able to reformat and add the bad-blocks info back in? === makimac_ is now known as makimac [03:19] Do I need to add an anti-virus to my Ubuntu install?

[03:30] Ethornet: you should write something that wraps around smplayer and takes care of that [03:30] Ethornet: I'm not sure.... perhaps mpv? but I don't know... http://mpv.io/ you can ask about mpv in #mpv-player === rotorgeek is now known as RotorWatchingTV [03:39] Ari-Yang: I'll check it out, thanks. SchrodingersScat: yeah, thought about that. but if there already is a player that can do that, I'd rather use that. my programming skill is little above hello world level. but that might be a fun little project.

[04:27] Cip, A standard account is not in the sudo list, it's not an admin. [04:28] wilee-nilee thank you, so from that profile i can not "sudo su" ? [04:30] Cip, I'm not sure, you might give a overall goal here for the best help, including whether that account needs to be standard. [04:30] you normally dont do 'sudo su' Cip its best to just use 'sudo -s' if you need a root shell. [04:31] if the user needs sudo rights, they need to be in the admin group. (or was it the adm group) [04:31] I believe it can be made a admin in users if you want to use a gui. [04:32] hmm this user is in sudo and adm ;) [04:32] Dr_Willis, A standard account as of now.

[04:36] dr_dissector: you get it to work? [04:39] hey guys, quick question: does 13.10 still require compiz? [04:40] Kuroshita, unity is a plugin in compiz [04:40] compiz is supposed to be improved in saucy [04:41] when we change from calling them by the adjective, to using the X.y? [04:41] when did we* [04:42] Kuroshita: 13.10 has compiz [04:42] working on it - there are copious instructions on davmail website (deb is on sourceforge) [04:42] 2 years ago it was common to cal them lucid, maverick and natty not 10.04, 10.10, 11.04 [04:42] i always use the numbers.. the code names are annoying [04:42] no one could spell quantal [04:42] ;) [04:42] oh is that why it changed? [04:43] it was all downhill after dapper drake [04:43] wilee-nilee the standard users is one of my employee, i need to "sudo" from his profile in order to install and fix some softwares or configurations [04:44] brewmaster619: http://davmail.sourceforge.net/linuxsetup.html in case you are interested [04:44] Cip: if hes not in the admin/sudores group. then you need to either add him to it.. or login as a user that can sudo. [04:44] i woudl have thought oneiric would give more trouble than quantal [04:44] Cip: unless of course you set a root password [04:44] at least we're not fedora [04:45] Dr_Willis i have added him to the sudoers but it does not work, i have also a root passowrd but also... it does not work [04:45] is sudoer in the dictionary? === AshfireDev is now known as AshfireTest [04:45] Cip: the user Has to log out/back in for the group change to take effect [04:46] if the root user password is set then you could use ssh, or login, to login to a root shell i belive [04:47] well perhaps not ssh ;) thats disabled also for root by default [04:55] Hello?

[04:57] !isitout [04:57] The 19th release of Ubuntu, Saucy Salamander, will be out in October of 2013. [04:57] Pretty urgent, and sort of needs quick attention. [04:57] shoot [04:57] Thanks. [04:58] How do I make a Mac bootable Linux live USB on Windows? [04:58] Colleague here dropped her Mac Book Pro. It won't turn on anymore. The only available computers here are PC. [04:59] Sort of annoyed that I'm restricted in terms of OS choices at the moment. [04:59] what is mac bootable linux [04:59] Jack__: the pendrivelinux site has dozens of tools [04:59] I'm Googling as fast as I can, but can't seem to find much. I'll have a look at pendrivelinux. [04:59] oh ok [05:00] you could even use a tool like winimage to do a straight 'image' to the flash drive - if you allready have the ubuntu mac iso file [05:00] what are you going to do with the flash drive if the mac wont turn on? [05:00] Dr_Willis I logged out and relogged in with tha tprofile right now, i opened the terminal and typed "sudo su" for test. it ask me tha password but the message says "sorry try again" for 3 times [05:01] I'll probably open the lappy up afterwards. [05:01] Cip: dont use sudo su [05:01] But first, I want to check if there are any hardware problems by booting Linux. [05:01] Cip: try 'sudo -s' and it wants the USERS password for sudo. not the root users password [05:02] if the mac wont 'turn on' how are you going to do anything with it? ;) [05:02] unless you mean it wont 'boot up the os' [05:03] Dr_Willis ok, i found it i was using the administrator password wich instead i should use the profile password [05:04] Cip: yes.. a user with sudo rights uses the USERS password. [05:04] Cip: because normally there is NO admin/root user password ;) [05:04] is that possibile to sudo with the admin passowrd from that profile instead of the user password so on me can have sudo permission? [05:04] is that possibile to sudo with the admin passowrd from that profile instead of the user password so only me can have sudo permission? [05:05] sudo uses the users password.. [05:05] thats sort of the point of sudo. [05:05] you could login as any user then use the 'login ' command perhaps to switch to the 'root' user. but thats getting weird [05:05] !sudo [05:05] sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [05:06] The Mac turns on. It just doesn't boot OS> [05:06] Gosh this is a weird situation. [05:06] thank you [05:09] has the 14.04 code name been out? [05:09] 13.10 will be released anytime soon? [05:09] Basically, I need to know how to make a Mac bootable Linux USB on Windows.

[05:29] vindav: I don't need to know if it works or not :) remember to turn it off, though [05:30] utusan: 'history -c' is the command that erases all the commands entered into terminal, but not their functionality. Whoa, thank you for your awesome help & intercept here !!! :D [05:31] vindav: you can always man or --help [05:32] utusan: Do you know how Xen containers work? I also wanted to move away from VMware for simpler file containers. I was wondering if Xen can launch an OS from, say, a btrfs subvolume? [05:32] utusan: thank you. Where does one get knowledge of the command like you helped me with ? I tried Googling and it didn't help me. [05:33] moppy: Thank you for your help tonight. I sparked interest. [05:33] india?

[05:35] Is ubuntu touch for nexus 7 really gonna drop today? If this is a rumour i will be heartbroken [05:35] hello , can anyone point me in the right direction of installing Ubuntu 13.04 alongside pre-installed windows (64 bit) on an Acer Aspire V5 laptop please ? [05:36] windows 8 * [05:36] wallzero: Being type 1 does it actually boot into Xen and not Ubuntu? [05:36] moppy: Yeah, look into VGA passthrough while you are at it. Seems like a holy grail for typical dual-booters. [05:36] rainbowwarrior: The regular installer does all of that. Ubuntu.com and download. Instructions are there [05:37] moppy: I don't have it running yet, but from what I gather: you select Xen from GRUB and then Xen boots Ubuntu. [05:37] Harroooo...? Ubuntu touch. Is is about to be released? [05:38] !touch | reves [05:38] reves: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [05:38] wallzero: sorry I don't know Xen, I only use vbox [05:38] Thanks useless bot [05:38] hey people, I installed nemo (file manager), and I can't do things like unzip folders or move things around, how do I change permissions? [05:38] I uninstalled it but now the original file manager doesn't have permissions [05:38] kam: how did you install nemo? [05:38] with command line [05:39] moppy: I just found Xen's IRC: ##xen. I need more information about containers before I commit. VMware is working well for me in the meantime. [05:39] kam: from where?

[05:47] he should know about zombies, too. he's ben10 only with more aliens [05:47] Ben64: no sir, there's an article on webupd8 to install it in ubuntu [05:47] kam: hence my first question - how did you install it..

Which ISO should I get? 32-bit Intel, 64-bit PC AMD or the 64-bit Mac AMD? Thanks in advance. [05:48] kam: so if that link I gave you doesn't help, you need to see !ppa [05:48] vbox can use 32 or 64 bit guestr [05:49] somsip: np thank you. [05:51] RandLAT: if you a Mac host why run a Mac guest? [05:51] have a* [05:52] actually that's a good quetion. would you use the intel or mac ubuntu on a mac host VM? [05:52] utusan: I wasn't sure but now I guess the 64-bit MAC ISO is to install it on a Mac's hardware, not inside a VB [05:52] moppy: a mac host with an ubuntu guest? the intel one [05:53] i would guess the VBox emulates an x86 PC so I would assume the PC one, but im not sure [05:53] the mac image is to deal with quirks in mac hardware related to booting, which wouldn't be relevant to VMs [05:53] Guest10147: macs are intel CPU [05:53] moppy: i know :) [05:53] ok [05:53] RandLAT: you could run the mac inside a vbox but why when your host is already a mac? [05:53] utusan: he is running UBUNTU as the guest [05:54] utusan: why would anyone run the same OS in a VM? [05:54] finchd: testing, security etc [05:54] moppy: sorry was being cynical [05:54] got dodgy file? open in VM etc === leon is now known as Guest96909 [05:55] finchd: that's exactly what I'm asking [05:55] i've run several *nixes in VB on my intel mac, what was the trouble? [05:55] utusan: To clarify, my goal isn't to install Ubuntu directly onto my Mac, but to use inside VirtualBox using Vagrant. [05:56] and yes, you can install x86/x86_64 Mac OSX in VB, no matter the host [05:56] RandLAT: and it's giving you trouble? [05:56] finchd: No, I came here to ask a question, hopefully avoiding troubles. [05:57] RandLAT: I understand you have vbox in your mac. [05:57] RandLAT: I'd just go download a prebuilt vagrant box from http://www.vagrantbox.es/ and isntall with vagrant [05:57] how can i tell from the command line whether Ubuntu is installed or Lubuntu is installed? [05:58] Thanks utusan, finchd, moppy [05:58] jon8: `cat /etc/motd` or `cat /etc/lsb_release` ? [05:58] err i bet lsb_release says 'ubuntu', huh?

[06:33] hi, java installation problem. i set JAVA_HOME using: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_25/bin/java. but when i type java - version it gives the inbuilt java, not the one referred to JAVA_HOME. any ideas? ~/.bash_profile refers to rvm, a ruby version manager in case it might be relevant. [06:37] niop: java home isnot the same as your $PATH [06:38] if you want to use the bins in that dir first. put that directory first in your PATH also [06:39] i've set path as well. the last entry is the desired jdk path: jc@jc-linux ~/Downloads $ echo $PATH [06:39] /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/jc/.rvm/bin:/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_25/bin [06:39] you want the java bin to be the first in your PATH [06:39] ok, so you're suggesting to put the path at the start. [06:39] ok [06:40] linux seems to automatically adjust the jre, once a version is removed. so wondering where it actually records where the current jre is. that might be the place to look. but shall try the path solution you've mentioned. [06:43] !java [06:43] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [06:44] only java instgalls i do are fromthe repos. or using some ppa/script i recall from webupd8 ;) [06:44] gives this now, for java - version: [06:44] jc@jc-linux ~/Downloads $ java -version [06:44] Error occurred during initialization of VM [06:44] java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object [06:44] now that might be do the java path. :) [06:45] i've got a few jres apparently, and at least 1 jdk. i need a jdk. [06:45] two of the jre's i've discovered happily are inbuilt. [06:46] but i'd just like to use the jdk, and it's own jre [06:46] hi, can i make a release upgrade(with do-realease-upgrade) that answer yes every time to all questions? [06:46] turning out to be quite a puzzle. [06:47] there's also oracle and open versions of the jdk, and they install to different locations.

[06:48] *correct [06:49] *is now [06:49] Guest10147, ok, but today right?

[09:35] A+-grade! === alumno is now known as albertoRubio [09:35] antithesis: so why the sarcasm earlier...? [09:35] another happy customer ;) [09:35] autologin-user-timeout=10 [09:36] fsck encounter "/dev/mapper/mpatha5 is mounted" [09:36] how hack idea 3g for unlimited Internet [09:36] then it abort [09:36] how hack idea 3g for unlimited Internet [09:36] kk5 get the fuck out ude [09:36] ActionParsnip because they gave a workaround and pretended that's the proper way [09:36] weiyang: you shouldnt fsck mounted filesystes [09:36] MrQuist: that language and attitude is not acceptable [09:36] ActionParsnip, I need to unmount it? [09:36] im sorry this dude is bugging me the whole time [09:36] antithesis: killing all user processes is far from graceful [09:36] weiyang: yes [09:36] MrQuist: right, so you ask him to stop clearly and politly [09:36] how to make Survey on cash crate [09:36] I AM NOT FUCKING GOOGLE [09:36] who told to you fuck google [09:36] MrQuist: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:37] Graceful is not my style :) [09:37] restarting the lightdm server seems more gracefull to me [09:37] adding a 10 sec auto login seems even more pratical [09:37] ActionParsnip Isn't that what, say, Unity does when you click logout? === DavidVilla is now known as Filosopollas [09:37] Or GNOME or XFCE, for that matter [09:37] ActionParsnip, hmm, so fsck can't fix the problem on the partition of its own? [09:37] weiyang: fsck can be set to auto fsck a partion on the next bootup [09:37] weiyang: or use it from a live cd [09:37] weiyang: no as the data wil change and cause false positives [09:38] ActionParsnip, Dr_Willis thanks [09:38] weiyang: do it from liveCD where the file system will be unmounted [09:38] !fsck [09:38] fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [09:38] im not sure if that touch /forcefsck still works - not tried it in ages [09:38] should do [09:39] Hello every one [09:40] how to compare two text file and print output on console [09:40] diff [09:41] !diff [09:41] there are one partition that is not detectable (it is unknown area but actually it is nfts) on the installer GUI, how can i fix this [09:45] there are one partition that is not detectable (it is unknown area but actually it is nfts) on the installer GUI, how can i fix this [09:46] when I have multiple windows for an app and want to switch it zooms them out but it reorders them :( and doesn't keep their relative positions to one another. how can i changes that?

[10:02] ok , but on my kubuntu, the modem was detected, and I'm Pretty SURE I had configured the apn, username, password, etc, correctly, but when i try to connect, some authorization window popping up, [10:03] but still I can't manage to connect to the internet, I wonder what is the problem [10:03] What modem is it?

YAY! [10:14] jordisayol: wait for the release announcment to be confident the right images are up [10:15] ObrienDave: no no no no nono [10:15] `Dooku: Why psyBNC? I find znc much better and it should be easier to install. [10:15] i'm having ubuntu style issues again [10:15] i changed my background, and now when i lock my computer, i have to log in twice [10:15] lock screen -> login -> see desktop briefly -> lock screen -> login -> work [10:16] <`Dooku> dagle I don't know, I'm kind of old fashion... :) First I want to know how everyhting worked before, since all I had was the details of the psyBNC and the providers were doing the setup for me [10:16] funny, they have TODAYs date on them [10:16] <`Dooku> dagle now I want to see how they use to it... :) after I will learn that I will jump perhaps on ZNC [10:16] ObrienDave: nothing funny about it, [10:17] external hdd is not detect ?

[10:24] not dectecting seagate extrnl hdd pls help me ??????? [10:24] DJ_Unibob: if your system contains 700mb of packages, then you're looking around 700mb of upgrades, it's normally comparible roughly to your current system [10:26] seems logical. Thanks Ikonia. I anticipate heavy server load once the release is...released. I only have 864 kbps (minus overhead) down, so it will take some time. === thej is now known as Guest97651 [10:26] DJ_Unibob: I strongly advise you not to upgrade on release day, but it is up to you [10:26] DJ_Unibob, torrent. seriously. it works. [10:26] can anyone tell me how gnome shell functions with an AMD GPU in saucy? [10:27] it's unleasant in raring :( [10:27] pip__: #ubuntu+1 for 13.10 discussion [10:27] nuts, got it wrong again - sorry [10:29] jlebrech : Okay, you to drag and drop the windows in the order you want as you are seeing them when they are unzoomed, right ? [10:30] sorry . I meant "you want to". [10:30] I didn't actually anticipate upgrading on day 0, I rarely ever grab anything, be it an O/S, a game, etc. I prefer to give things time for bugs to be discovered and fixed beforehand. :) [10:31] tramadol37mg: nah you can't move them, clicking on one focuses it [10:32] That and i had an issue with an upgrade a few years ago, I think it was either 8 or 9, when I had a dual boot, like I do now, when the grub loader got corrupted after the upgrade. [10:33] DJ_Unibob: there are usually a few bugs even a week or so after release [10:35] That's true. That's actually why I often go with the LTS versions. 12.04 didn't want to install on this machine though, menu kept hanging on the partitioning portion of the setup. [10:35] DJ_Unibob: Lubuntu 14.04 is LTS too :) [10:37] 13.10 will be the best for now [10:38] 12.04 is too old [10:38] no it is not [10:38] it is stable and maintained [10:39] pcallday moreover, 12.04 is LTS [10:39] pcallday: there is no such thing as "best" :) [10:39] hpw i can make macros under ubuntu? [10:39] keyboard macros [10:39] i tried to use autokey but it don't work [10:39] I've been a long time KDE user, but I'm actually liking Unity.

If you need 13.10 now - you can get an ISO [10:41] k [10:41] what it meen? [10:41] pcallday: 12.04 will be supported fully, long after 13.10 is ead [10:41] *dead [10:41] whatsup [10:41] users [10:43] ANN-Tech: you mean the daily build ? [10:44] nope, the real deal http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.10/ [10:44] ObrienDave: what part of "no" am I not making clear to you [10:44] ObrienDave: wait until the official release and stop giving out unvalidated information [10:44] ObrienDave: I will not ask you again. [10:44] ActionParsnip: I like new version better [10:44] more [10:45] loa: super key is the one with the logo, usually a windows logo [10:45] What's new in the 13.10 if Mir isn't in it? [10:45] vigevirtz: it's basicallly just a version upgrade/bump [10:45] Faster and more stable? [10:45] vigevirtz: I wouldn't say that, [10:45] You don't need to update spending too much time [10:46] to update [10:47] ObrienDave - the link now has nly Final Release of 13.10 [10:47] Filena-Beta links are tnot there anymore [10:48] So yeah, it has todays date. Cool [10:48] guys, I will make this clear do not offer unvalidated information about the release status of 13.10 - [10:48] wait until the official release announcment. [10:48] ANN-Tech... SHHHH you'll make someone mad here. our little secret ok? [10:48] ObrienDave: I'm not joking, a date stamp does not mean a sane image [10:48] stop it now. [10:49] ikonia, can you point whre did I say that it is THE FINAL release of 13.10 ? [10:49] All we say is that we found todays ISO that's it [10:49] ANN-Tech: I am just making it clear to you and others in advance of any more discussion [10:49] Your funny. Very funny ^) [10:50] ANN-Tech: take it how you want, but I've made it clear. [10:50] So does anyone know what happened to the medibuntu repositories? I haven't been able to connect to days. [10:50] vigevirtz: they have been dead for a long time, check the home page [10:50] medibuntu is no more [10:50] ANN-Tech: please exercise patience and wait until the official release [10:50] a'ight [10:51] auronandace - to late. I already have it :) lol [10:51] oh, that's incredibly lame. so what is anyone supposed to do for dvd codecs and the like? [10:51] Bill Gates sent me Final 13.10 Release last week ! Told me it is good. [10:51] vigevirtz: read the announcement, and read http://help.ubuntu.com [10:52] hi [10:53] ANN-Tech why not calm down?! [10:53] hello guys is there anyway to get 13.10 [10:53] and when the official is out it automatically updates to the official version [10:53] jlebrech : Indeed. That's why I don't understand your request. [10:55] hello [10:55] there's a directory on an SD card i want to access, but at some point nautilus seems to think that directory became a broken link. every time i unmount/remount the sd card, nautilus shows that the parent directory of the last directory to become a link is now a broken link. what is going on?! [10:56] example: the directory was /media/sdcard/a/b/c . suddenly, c became a broken link. unmount and remount it, now b is a broken link. unmount and remount, now a is a broken link. [10:56] you can try deleting it through the terminal [10:56] tramadol37mg: they should keep their relative positions (it's a text editor and I have to figure out which one's which) [10:56] go to terminal: type sudo nautilus [10:56] then delete it [10:56] vigevirtz: who are you talking to?

[11:02] ExtremeDevilz: yes, if you want the 64bit desktop one [11:02] * ExtremeDevilz needs a 64 bit [11:02] malinus: like XBMC for example [11:03] ExtremeDevilz: why do you need 64bit? [11:03] faugusztin, yes I would like a desktop. and xbmc etc. [11:03] I want X [11:04] malinus: I used to use Server+NoDM+XBMC in a very custom setup... But recently I downloaded the XBMCbuntu live installer and that's really very decent. [11:04] malinus: then grab desktop version [11:04] android ?

[11:07] malinus: yes, that's a monitor to Ubuntu [11:07] Oli, but I can't even access bios, because then it isn't a monitor... [11:07] So I can't make it boot from usb. [11:08] malinus. i use our tv as a monitor with hdmi , it should work [11:08] malinus: That's very irregular then. Every computer I've used can boot to HDMI just fine. [11:08] it can? [11:08] malinus: perhaps your bios are hidden [11:08] what's a good way to view a powerpoint presentation that libreoffice does not seem to render correctly?

It currently support plain ISO9660 Level 1 and 2, Rock Ridge, Joliet, and zisofs. [11:28] Is there a way to skip upgrades? I don't wanna wait for next LTS nor do I want to install 3 upgrades. Going from 12.04 LTS to 13.10 will be a pain (12.10, 13.04, 13.10) [11:28] Oi, i thought ubuntu 13.10 was due to be released today [11:28] hi [11:28] Asad: yes [11:29] Asad: you go LTS to LTS. or each step in btweeen. no skipping to the front of the line [11:29] download the iso you want [11:29] then load it up [11:29] or do a clean install. ;) [11:29] there will be and option that says upgrade [11:29] clean install is better [11:29] err.. Im not sure that you can skip releases with the iso files. [11:29] you can't [11:29] Asad: you can wait 2 months and upgrade to 14.04 alpha if you really really want to [11:29] oh damn [11:30] Gorilla_No_Baka: yes.. yes it is.. [11:30] Ah right. Not worth it then. I guess I will have to wait for 14.04 then. Thanks. [11:30] Dr_Willis: well, i just came from the ubuntu 's official web page and they still offer only 13.04 [11:31] Gorilla_No_Baka: 13.10 has not been released yet [11:31] Patience ;) [11:31] http://ovekarlsen.com/Blog/turning-ubuntu-12-04-into-a-professional-low-jitter-os/ [11:31] Gorilla_No_Baka: so? [11:31] why are they waiting so long to release it? [11:31] #ubuntu-release-party [11:31] vigevirtz: they are not waiting so long.. its not even 8 am in the usa [11:31] ikonia: i thought i saw somewhere written that it would be today [11:31] yeah but ubuntu is based in the UK [11:31] Gorilla_No_Baka: it is to be today. [11:31] today barely started [11:31] Gorilla_No_Baka: "today" is a 24 hour window spread out across around 36 hours to cover the timezones around the world. [11:32] we get this every release... [11:32] Ben64: it's1245 in UK mate.. [11:32] Gorilla_No_Baka: there will be an announcment when it's released, [11:32] it will be released when its anounced. [11:32] its 1:32am in hawaii mate [11:32] lol [11:32] what time is it on mars? [11:32] ;) [11:32] and it's 13:32 in Germany [11:33] so, i guess my question is : if i were to go to http://releases.ubuntu.com/saucy/ will i get the beta image or the final release? [11:33] Gorilla_No_Baka: beta [11:34] Gorilla_No_Baka: you should not do that until the announcment of official release. [11:34] bollock [11:34] Gorilla_No_Baka: and when it does get anounced.. you should use the torrents to get it. [11:34] s [11:34] Gorilla_No_Baka: what ? [11:34] Gorilla_No_Baka: tone down the language please. [11:34] the release3 will get announced in #ubuntu-release-party first [11:34] ikonia: :) believe it or not the b word it's quite normal [11:34] if you want to know when it is out, come over there [11:34] Gorilla_No_Baka: it's uncalled for, and it's not polite. [11:35] Gorilla_No_Baka: hence "please don't use it in here" [11:35] i beg to differ, it's quite polite over here [11:35] :) [11:35] Gorilla_No_Baka: over where ? [11:35] i have friends in the UK, and they say they wouldn't say it to their mothers, so its not allowable here [11:35] (would be good if someone could put #ubuntu-release-party in the topic btw) [11:35] and here comes the boot... [11:35] folks , look here for the official release ,https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/ [11:35] owwo.. who... Ben64 buddy you ain't my mother [11:35] :) [11:36] Gorilla_No_Baka: enough now, please just tone down the language, [11:36] ubottu [11:36] ikonia: my language is quite toned down... [11:36] innit? [11:37] Gorilla_No_Baka: ok great, so please don't use that sort of language any more, thank you. [11:37] :) you can't just let it go can you :) [11:37] i've got a window where it's sticking above the top of the screen [11:37] how can i drag it down === root____1 is now known as qowaz [11:37] grahamsavage: alt-click on it anywhere and drag [11:37] alt +F4 [11:37] grahamsavage F7, then drag [11:37] both of them didn't work [11:38] try alt [11:38] then click and drag [11:38] tired both [11:38] ikonia, could you put a (temporary) hint to #ubuntu-release-party in the topic ? [11:38] grahamsavage: what window manager/desktop are you using? [11:38] unity [11:38] Why I couldn't remove newlines from the file? http://lanother.tk/gd.txt [11:38] ubuntu 12.04 [11:38] ogra_: sure, give me a few minutes. [11:38] grahamsavage: try the alt-click to drag on other windows.. that should work in most any desktop [11:38] thanks ! [11:38] :) [11:39] grahamsavage: you are alt-click-Hold-the-button, then moveing? [11:39] Dr_Willis: yep not working [11:39] but works on all the other applications [11:39] i might need to kill i guess [11:39] grahamsavage: you could run xkill and click the app (if its practical) [11:40] i dragged the app to another workspace and it's still missing it's title bar [11:40] so i'm guessing somethign has gone wrong [11:40] log out and then back in [11:42] grahamsa [11:42] yep? [11:42] killing the app and reopening fixed the issue [11:42] grahamsavage: what app is this anyway? only the one app is missing its title bar? [11:42] and now alt is working [11:43] Sublime Text 3 [11:43] yeah it was just one app [11:43] hello all, I'm having some trouble with the wifi, I have a Ralink and I'm using the compiled driver rt2860 instead of the default rt2800pci, the wifi works fine, but I'm getting non-stop these two lines on the syslog: [11:43] DRS: unkown mode,default use 11N 1S AP [11:43] DRS: unkown mode (SupRateLen=6, ExtRateLen=0, MCSSet[0]=0xfc, MCSSet[1]=0xff) [11:44] grahamsavage: its amazeing the # of people i see in hwere with issues with sublime text.. [11:44] grahamsavage: ;) [11:44] has Ubuntu 13.10 released? [11:44] !mdp [11:44] ranjan: no. [11:46] ranjan: that will be tommorow .. they're quite busy with the tea break now :) [11:46] but this site shows 13.10 builds [11:46] http://ubuntu.mirrors.tds.net/releases/saucy/ [11:46] ranjan: when the MOTD in the channel changes, it's out [11:47] ranjan: those are not final.. WHEN it happens you will hear about it [11:47] ranjan: there have been 13.10 'builds' for _months_ [11:47] any idea about ubuntu touch release? [11:47] !touch [11:47] Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [11:47] ranjan: 2014 [11:47] Dr_Willis - any app that's both complex and becoming popular is going to manifest that pattern i think [11:47] ranjan: when its ready [11:48] pbx: i dont plan on paying for a text editor. ;) did that decades ago... i still miss CygnusED in many ways. ;P [11:48] ranjan: install the daily ISO then you will upgrade to the RC, what's a day or so going to do if you don'ty get it immediately on release? [11:49] ranjan: you dont get a lesser version if you get it a day or so later you know.... [11:51] hopefully the new 13.10 will fix the broadcom issues they have rtight now... man .. it's playing ridiculous... installed on a macbook pro ubuntu will see all the surounding networks but mine.. That in the conditions where i am seated half of meter away from the router [11:52] you mean 1.64′? :p [11:52] whats that in furlongs? [11:52] Any realease party channels around? :) [11:53] join ubuntu.hu [11:53] Atlantic777, #ubuntu-release-party [11:53] lol [11:53] ogra_: tnx [11:53] Atlantic777, bring friends :) [11:53] Dr_Willis: 0.00249 [11:53] (and beverage) [11:54] ogra_: tel hom to bring some spliff as well, we're running out of it [11:54] Gorilla_No_Baka, dude, please keep it falily friendly [11:54] *family [11:55] ok, scrap that... tell him to pring some sandwiches [11:55] :) [11:55] macka [11:56] Gorilla_No_Baka, better ;) [11:57] :) [11:57] * Gorilla_No_Baka waits for the 13.10 to see what new ways of NOT working ubuntu can come up with :) [11:58] whats not working for you ? [11:58] what kernal is 3.10 have? its not 3.11.5 stable is it? [11:58] and did you file bugs (before the release indeed) [11:58] Gorilla_No_Baka: Can you move any discussion about 13.10 to the party channel, or if its a specific support issue to #ubuntu+1 [11:58] Guest26355, i think it is [11:58] (except for the phones ) [12:01] hi. Is there any quick GUI file attributes changer for ubuntu, like this one? http://www.stapf-ferienwohnungen.de/plugins/advancedform/help/images/folder-permissions.png [12:01] lol [12:01] dry[1]: in most GUI FTP clients [12:01] .. what are the chances of the OpenVPN package in ubuntu being upgraded from the deprecated 2.2.x to the recommended 2.3.x .. at some point ? [12:01] is there anything I can do to help ? [12:02] dry[1]: use nautilus and you can do it like the local data on your system. [12:03] Kralian: if you report a bug it may make it happen sooner [12:03] reisio: but I'm thinking about quick one available from right mouse button. [12:03] ActionParsnip: bugs cover request for just upgrading ? [12:03] * Gorilla_No_Baka waits for the 13.10 to see what new ways of NOT working ubuntu can come up with :) [12:03] Gorilla_No_Baka: space it out more :p [12:03] Kralian: if the bugs are significant, yes [12:04] Kralian: if not and the VPN works then it wont be upgraded sooner than more urgent bugs [12:05] ActionParsnip: I'm just looking for a quick one, or I [12:05] ActionParsnip: I'm just looking for a quick one, or I'll just write myself in python. [12:06] ActionParsnip: ok.. I'll roll my own package :) [12:06] ActionParsnip: it's just IPv6 that only works with 2.3 and not with 2.2 [12:06] dry[1]: what exactly are you trying to do? [12:06] dry[1]: how much quicker can using the application already installed in your OS get? [12:06] ActionParsnip: hardly a bug ;) [12:06] Kralian: report it to let the guys know. If they see it as an issue it will be updated [12:08] <`Dooku> Can someone help install a BNC on Ubuntu? [12:08] <`Dooku> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/psyBNC I keep getting an error following these steps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/psyBNC [12:09] gordonjcp: I just need a right mouse click on a file to see this table with a 750 field. I can write it myself, but if anything like that already exists, than where it is? I don't want to open something separate like FTP clients to do it. [12:09] ActionParsnip: wonder if I can find my launchpad login ;-) [12:11] dry[1]: I'm having trouble understanding what you said === njin is now known as fabiooo [12:11] Kralian: you can always ask in #launchpad if you need help [12:11] why isn't 13.10 out? [12:11] MadTux: no, you can see thet in the channel topic [12:12] MadTux: read [12:12] !topic|MadTux, [12:12] MadTux,: Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic [12:12] ActionParsnip: apparently, my launchpad account has gone missing.. thanks for your help btw :) [12:12] I thought this is Ubuntu in general [12:12] MadTux, in general it is. === ramon is now known as woodoo [12:13] where would I ask that question? [12:13] gordonjcp: no problem. I'll write it and I'll show you. [12:13] !saucy|MadTux, but as you're probably the 10 millionth person to ask, expect to get ignored. it's out when it's out. be patient [12:13] MadTux, but as you're probably the 10 millionth person to ask, expect to get ignored. it's out when it's out. be patient: Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) will be the 19th release of Ubuntu. Announcement: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1252 - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1. Release date will be 17th October 2013. [12:14] MadTux: in my experience, it's usually out at the end of the month, rarely much earlier :) [12:14] oh, thanks! [12:14] dry[1]: if you like. I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve [12:14] dry[1]: what table? What's a 750 field? [12:16] Where's 13.10 talk taking place? [12:16] Hi there, I checked reviews that ubuntu 13.10 final release been available today. Any idea where I can get the ISO from [12:16] adeligen: #ubuntu+1 channel [12:16] vesh_: it's not available yet [12:16] gordonjcp: OK, find 'Numeric value' (a.k.a. 750) field here: http://www.stapf-ferienwohnungen.de/plugins/advancedform/help/images/folder-permissions.png [12:17] ikonia any idea when it will be available [12:17] 13.10 released ? [12:17] vesh_: some point today, there will be an announcment whrn it's released [12:17] mahdur: no [12:18] ikonia, ok so I should just get it via www.ubuntu.com once it becomes available. [12:18] vesh_: correct [12:18] ikonia, thanks a pun for clearing things up. Cant wait to test drive :) [12:18] looking forward to 13.10 [12:19] dry[1]: okay, and? [12:20] dry[1]: it's the permissions values, what about it? === Beothoric is now known as Lafiro [12:22] gordonjcp: and I'm just asking if anything like that exists outside like FTP clients or terminal. I want to use it just from my right mouse button click. But I think I need to use terminal. [12:22] * cfhowlett suggest everyone who is breathlessly waiting for 13.10 to drop use torrents not direct download. [12:23] dry[1]: yeah, just "chmod " [12:26] gordonjcp: yes. I know, but it's slower while frequently in use. the one I shown looks clean and it's quick. [12:26] dry[1]: what the GUI thing? [12:26] dry[1]: that looks very slow to use [12:27] gordonjcp: right click -> type 777 + pass -> press OK [12:28] Hello [12:28] Is there an easy way to move /home to another harddrive? [12:28] dry[1]: right click on what? [12:28] lolcat: yes [12:28] lolcat, I would think you could dd or copy to a movable media, drop it in the new location and then direct your system to find it. [12:29] lolcat: unmount it, copy it across, update fstab to point to the new location [12:29] any one know how I can setup ircdhybrid on ubuntu 13.04 [12:29] lolcat: mount -a and boom [12:29] you've moved it [12:29] gordonjcp, did you just say what I meant to say - only smarter? [12:29] cfhowlett: possibly ;-) [12:30] lolcat: pay attention to *how* you copy it, so you don't mangle file timestamps [12:30] or permissions [12:31] hey guys i have read-only usb and i cant do anything to it i use gparted and gnome disk utility even fdisk even some guides [12:31] gordonjcp, "cp -a" [12:31] how can i format my flash? [12:31] Yahoo! http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/10/ubuntu-13-10-review-available-for-download [12:33] ActionParsnip, have ever encountered with read-only flash usb? [12:33] gordonjcp: right mouse button click on a file, than click Properties with a proper table with a 'Numeric value' field with a drwx- - - - - - confirmation + (optional description table). [12:34] dry[1]: that sounds complicated [12:36] mehdi: appears your device is "working as intended". Sometimes there is a physical switch on the usb stick that disables write protect [12:37] is torrent available here: http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.04/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent is the final release? [12:37] sorry: http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.10/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent [12:37] dr0p, yes [12:38] moppy, no i aint got that some virus made it happened] [12:38] > virus [12:38] > ubuntu [12:39] cfhowlett, thanks [12:39] dr0p, enjoy. [12:40] bean, in iran above 95% percent of ppl use Windows [12:40] mehdi, gparted etc should be able to format, you probably need to "unmount" it first though [12:40] is it normal that the "start up disc creator" takse 3-5 trys to do a working ubuntu usb-image ? [12:41] mehdi, Yes, but a windows virus doesn't work on ubuntu [12:41] bean, i tried but nothing happened [12:41] well if the usb was used on a win machine, it could have broken the filesystem there [12:41] mehdi: I have a couple of USB sticks that have failed, such that they appear to be write protected [12:41] plausible. [12:41] cebor, no. 3 - 5 times suggest a problem. sticks do fail. [12:42] or the usb stick itself could be broken [12:42] you could try fscking it, mehdi. [12:42] you enjoyed that [12:42] any one know how I can setup ircdhybrid on ubuntu 13.04 [12:42] mehdi, what is the drive, /dev/sdb? [12:43] bean, sdb it is [12:43] ArielX_, if you don't know how to set up an IRCd it's probably best to not do it. [12:43] kk [12:43] mehdi, alright, try "sudo hdparm -r0 /dev/sdb" [12:43] rash but good answer [12:43] hi, i have 12.04 installed. Can i upgrade to 12.10 with a Lubuntu-DVD but keep kde ? [12:43] ArielX_, why would you want to set up and ircd, i guess. [12:44] an* [12:44] http://askubuntu.com/questions/185815/how-do-i-clear-everything-data-viruses-from-a-thumbdrive i follow this article but second step with parted aint working [12:44] mehdi, alright, try "sudo hdparm -r0 /dev/sdb" [12:44] means, that the upgrade get the main-system-packeges first from dvd instead load it from inet. [12:44] and my dmesg| tail is : [ 1308.442103] Add.

[12:45] hi [12:45] rethus, you probably don't need a CD to upgrade. [12:45] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6250836/ [12:45] how can I uninstall OpenOffice (without Writer)? [12:45] bean, but i still have 12.10 here on cd, and its much faster than my inet-connection [12:46] mehdi, did you try my hdparm command? [12:46] yeap [12:46] so may i add the dvd to source and set prio a little higher than mirror on web [12:46] mehdi, is it still write protected [12:47] bean, setting for readonlyto 0 [12:47] hi, does anybody know when exacly will be the 13.10 announcement? was it postponed for some reason ? [12:47] when is 13.10 about? I am looking for fresh install and using Cinnamon 2.0. as a DE. Good combo or not so? [12:47] readonly =0 [12:47] apt-get with a parameteR? [12:47] mehdi, so now try using parted to format it [12:47] !party | natool [12:47] natool: Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, #edubuntu, and #lubuntu are support channels. To countdown to !Saucy release and then party once it happens, join #ubuntu-release-party - For in-person parties, see http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/2534/ [12:47] https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/ , monitor this site for the official release [12:47] bean, its unknown and i used parted but returns error === mic__ is now known as MIC132 [12:48] mehdi, it sounds like your flash drive is broken :\ [12:49] bean, let me show the error i get while using parted ok? [12:49] k [12:50] what about the builds in http://releases.ubuntu.com/saucy/ some of them are dated 17-Oct , is that the same as the final release ? [12:50] !isitout [12:50] The 19th release of Ubuntu, Saucy Salamander, will be out in October of 2013. [12:50] yes [12:51] it hasn't been officially announced afaik [12:51] natool, release is imminent. perhaps you could, oh, I don't know, WAIT and then just install the final released version. [12:51] I've got an application launched, and I'd like to retrieve the full command line required to run it as it appears in htop, or the system monitor. It's stupidly long, and the sys mon doesn't seem to allow me to copy it [12:53] lacrymology, "ps aux | grep name-of-application" [12:53] cfhowlett: ok will wait :) like the style of the reply.. dramatic :P [12:53] how can I make a new admin user from cli [12:53] ? [12:54] natool, delayed gratification is the mark of a truly self-substantiated linux user. :) [12:54] mehdi: yes, it usually means not unmounted properly or other errors on the device [12:55] cfhowlett: ummm will tweet that :P [12:55] i have a source package, how can i make it a .deb package ? so that i can install that package. [12:55] !compile | xtriz [12:55] xtriz: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall [12:55] !checkinstall | xtriz [12:55] xtriz: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! [12:55] xtriz: ue checkinstall instead of make install to build a deb [12:56] weird, Distrowatch has a link to the 64-bit desktop in the latest distros but no announcement [12:56] eai como vão ? [12:56] it's not out unless the release manager says its out [12:56] bean, its the error with parted : Error: Input/output error during write on /dev/sdb [12:56] bean: thanks. That gave me my command line. But it doesn't work. Damn [12:58] I am with a regional ISP and I have some bandwidth to spare. We use Ubuntu, so I like to share the ISOs via bittorrent, especially around release time. I have good, native IPv6 connectivity too. I'm getting "Announce error: Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker." for ipv6.torrent.ubuntu.com. If I load the website with that hostname, I see that the 13.10 torrents are not available there. Am I doing anything wrong, or does Canoni [12:59] ActionParsnip, Pici ok :) [12:59] rlaager: Probably because the final release hasn't been confirmed so the torrents may not be available, or could even be old versions [12:59] rlaager, I think those links may just be placeholders ...

[13:01] i dont see a release date for the desktop 13.10 version so I guess its going to be sometime today/this month. Sorry BOT didnt mean to L( [13:02] veshan: sometime today (17th) yes [13:02] veshan: it will arrive, chillout [13:02] Are there torrents seeding for it yet? I have a lot of lovely bandwidth which is just sitting there being wasted [13:03] veshan, on Central Europe Time, they've still got 9 hours of "today" left. Chillax [13:03] Rory: pull down the daily iso, then simply upgrade [13:03] ActionParsnip: I don't mean for me, I mean to help seed the final release [13:04] cfhowlett - cant wait :) [13:04] Rory: Final released hasn't been announced yet [13:04] Rory: i see, what speed up do you have? [13:04] ActionParsnip: well potentially 10gbps but I'm limit it to 1 [13:04] DJones, it has its on www.ubuntu.com website [13:04] Also IO [13:04] * bean is going to seed the final torrent. [13:04] Rory: to the web? from your router? 1Gbps upstream speed? [13:05] ActionParsnip: Yes [13:05] Rory: are you sure you arent confusing it with the speed from your PC to the router? [13:05] ActionParsnip: I work for an ISP [13:05] DJones: So the .torrent files on releases.ubuntu.com aren't for final .isos, even though they have the usual names? [13:05] Rory: ahhh that explains it [13:05] Rory: you can understand my exclamation [13:05] yes lol [13:05] veshan: No it hasn't, thats just and advert for something different, if you go to the download page, its still 12.04 & 13.04 [13:06] * bean will be seeding it on his seedbox once it hits final [13:07] rlaager: They can still change, until its announced on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2013-September/thread.html there's no guarantee [13:07] I'm having some trouble upgrading procps... [13:07] # service procps restart [13:07] stop: Unknown instance: [13:07] start: Job failed to start [13:08] gustav___: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [13:08] I cannot open any windows applications in my ubuntu12.04. Instead it displays file not found. What could be the issue [13:08] ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS. [13:08] Wine? [13:09] hillary_: what application are you trying to use? [13:09] hillary_, wine. [13:09] gustav___: used TAB to complete the name of the service? [13:09] guys I need an info. I'm using lubuntu and I want to use peppermint OS's ICE program [13:09] i install Cisa.exe but it cannot open. And any .exe cannot work [13:10] DJones, worth the wait anyway, will have to just wait and see, according to cfhowlett it should be available sometime today [13:10] ActionParsnip: No, I know it's name. [13:10] hillary_: is this an exam of some kind [13:10] gustav___: use TAB to be double sure [13:10] yes you are correct [13:10] ActionParsnip: Well, why? That's a feature of 12.10. [13:11] hillary_: did you check the Wine Appdb to see if it is known to work? [13:11] gustav___: tab completeion has been in Ubuntu and Linux forever [13:11] how do i check please [13:11] ActionParsnip: But not for service. [13:11] gustav___: the TAB completion of the service name is not new in Saucy [13:11] gustav___: it is [13:12] ActionParsnip: No, that's a feature of 12.10. [13:12] gustav___: type: sudo servce then press TAB a few times [13:12] gustav___: works here on Precise [13:12] ActionParsnip: Are you going to help me or keep trolling? [13:12] gustav___: you are saying something isnt a feature, when it is [13:13] The service/file exists, [13:13] # ls /etc/init.d/procps [13:13] /etc/init.d/procps [13:13] what'sgoing on [13:13] can somebody else test this on Precise, tab completion after: sudo service [13:13] ActionParsnip: i do i check if wine Appdb work? [13:13] hillary_: search it [13:13] hillary_: the appdb is online [13:13] gustav___: can you use it from the init.d folder? [13:13] ActionParsnip: Yes, sudo service tab completes on Precise. [13:14] ActionParsnip: Nope. [13:14] gustav___: ^ rlaager's system does it.... weird huh. New in Saucy it is NOT [13:14] gustav___: Do you have the bash-completion package installed? [13:14] ActionParsnip: Isn't Saucy 13? [13:14] gustav___: no, saucy is 13.10 [13:14] gustav___: there is no "ubuntu 13" [13:15] hi [13:15] rlaager: No. [13:15] ActionParsnip: Still, stop trolling and help me. [13:15] gustav___: in a default install of ubuntu it is installed and has been for a long long long time [13:15] hi [13:15] gustav___: im educating you, its not a new feature in Saucy when you said it is [13:15] Hi. I have set up virtualbox with windows7. Now I plugged in my iPad, but I can find it under virtualbox [13:15] What can I do ? [13:16] gustav___: are there any bugs reported for the issue? [13:16] Looking under dmesg I can see that it is recoginized as a "Apple Inc." device [13:16] any channel for saucy release? [13:16] I can see the ipad in nautilus [13:16] Can someone else except ActionParsnip help me? He seems to be a troll. [13:16] xiaopi[z], #ubuntu-release-party [13:16] But under virtualbox not [13:16] thanks :D [13:16] !bug 998302 | gustav___ [13:16] foofoobar, don't expect to much. not sure that virtualbox will handle the ipad/win7 interchange [13:16] bug 1157643 in procps (Ubuntu T-series) "duplicate for #998302 procps fail to start" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1157643 [13:17] gustav___: known issue [13:17] cfhowlett, but I wonder why virtualbox shows me "no usb device found" [13:18] If I turn on and load Ubuntu: sound doesn't work. If I turn on and load Windows, then restart and load Ubuntu, sound works. If I hibernate Ubuntu, then turn on and load Ubuntu, sound works. [13:18] foofoobar, you have to enable USB passthrough for one. also ... it's Apple. expect unforeseen issues with NON-apple hardware. they make it difficult by design [13:18] Hary: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [13:18] ActionParsnip: with sound working or sound not working? [13:19] Hary: in Ubuntu, the sound working won't affect the output :) [13:19] Fixed! [13:19] gustav_: did the bug help? [13:19] ActionParsnip: Thanks. [13:19] gustav_: coolio [13:19] cfhowlett, when I go to settings -> usb -> and click the "plus sign", it shows no device [13:19] Yep. One of the comments had a workaround. [13:20] ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l [13:20] gustav_: looking for bugs when you get issues helps, sometimes people report them and people give fixes :) [13:20] guys I need to use ICE (peppermint's web apps program) in lubuntu [13:20] Hary: try: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.config/pulse*; rm -r ~/.pulse* wait 10 seconds, does sound then work? [13:20] ActionParsnip: No sure what to search for when looking for bug reports. [13:20] foofoobar, as I said ... do you have some tutorial or evidence that this has actually worked? [13:20] cfhowlett, no :/ [13:20] gustav_: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=service+procps+restart&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&gws_rd=cr&ei=IuNfUtqpC_OV7AbAg4G4Cw#q=service+procps+restart+Unknown+instance&rls=org.mozilla:en-US%3Aofficial&safe=off my exact search [13:20] hi guys, the images on http://releases.ubuntu.com/saucy/ are the final ones, or still the release candidate?

[13:41] xtriz: check it is mounted properly and there are no disk errors. ubuntu can mount in root only if the file system is inconsisent [13:41] xtriz, could be NTFS but I've never had a problem getting access to my win7 [13:41] bwayne, yeah i think that only does your ip.. try this.. http://incloak.com/ports/ [13:41] cfhowlett, i even tried chmod 777 but still i can't change anything. [13:41] there is many out there you just gotta search for it.. [13:41] xtriz, see moppy's suggestion: mount [13:41] run the checkdisk, usually the cause of being unable to do permissions is file system error [13:42] cfhowlett, i am able to access it, but i can't access it over apache . [13:42] ActionParsnip: ? [13:42] moppy, ok checking out [13:42] ActionParsnip: you are here? [13:44] ActionParsnip: Are you alive?? You are fk? [13:45] afk [13:45] moppy, only the owner has access to read and write, i can't change the permissions of the group and the others. [13:46] hi, I would like to mount a tmpfs partition and copy some directories in this part, a way to do that via fstab ? [13:46] Hi, Its strange to find that 12.04 no more supports right clicking on applet items bar and adding/removing applets? How can that be done?

[13:49] pranav: stop repeating [13:49] wow.. this channel has grown its no. of users recently ;) [13:49] pranav: it's 13.10 release day... [13:50] well windows 8.1 was released today, what did you expect? :-) [13:50] bean__: hmm.. wow! [13:50] seriously though, pranav, be patient. [13:50] what are you attempting to accomplish with said screenshots [13:51] it appears that a port which i had previously opened for bittorrent is now closed. are there alternative ports, such as ftp or http, which are acceptable on which to use BT? [13:51] bwayne: usually any "high port" is fine. [13:51] bean__: i will write a script. and will make a timelapse video of my 24 hrs for 1 week ? [13:51] pranav: there is a screenshot app in ubuntu (in the dash), it cab be set to do a window only, or a mouse rectangle [13:51] bwayne, what bean_ means is anything over 1024 [13:52] pranav: sorry ignore me, it wont help for that [13:52] pranav: check out "gLapse" idk if its in the repos [13:52] moppy: i always use it though. its userful. [13:52] bean__: ok :) [13:53] bean__: is 13.10 long term release ? [13:53] pranav: no, most recent LTS is 12.04, 14.04 will be the next. [13:54] bean__: ok.. but still i can't wait to try new ubuntu [13:54] understandable. 13.10 is out now [13:56] now [13:56] bean__: i made a 32 bit installation for Ubuntu 10.04 (in 64 bit computer) 2/3 years back [13:56] and then later upgraded to 12.04 it so that my programs/settings remains intact. is the clean installation only way to leverage the benefits of 64 bit ? [13:56] Could a machine with an i7 3.5ghz quad core, 256GB ssd, 1TB hdd, be used as a sort of vm host? I'm thinking of running ubuntu 12.04 on the ssd then setting up windows and any other OS's as guests in VirtualBox. If it were set up like that, would I be able to use the windows guest just like i'm using windows installed on it now? [13:56] pranav: Yes, doing it any other way would be unwise. [13:56] esde: sure, sounds cool [13:56] bean__: is there a way to keep my softwares intact ? [13:57] esde: the hardware will be virtualized so games wont run great [13:57] No gaming [13:57] just a lot of downloading and media viewing [13:57] moppy, cfhowlett had to do this to get the root access and change the permissions -> sudo mount -t ntfs -o rw,auto,user,fmask=0022,dmask=0000 /dev/whatever /mnt/whatever [13:57] well, you could /try/ to take a list of the packages you have installed and then reinstall them on 13.10, but theres a good chance some of them will be missing [13:57] esde: why not do that on ubuntu? [13:58] bean__: okies.. will keep that in mind [13:58] * wsky is upgrading to 13.10. yay. [13:58] games available on stea linux, esde, http://store.steampowered.com/search/?os=linux [13:58] people know they can get 13.10 whenever they want, right? [13:59] compiz performance has been terrible for me on 13.10. I've noticed unity+dash are opaque also [13:59] esde: man, if you didn't need windows, I'd tell you to use containers :) [13:59] Atluxity: what? [13:59] [09:57:29] just a lot of downloading and media viewing ----> you can do this on ubuntu just fine.... [13:59] Ari-Yang: are they compatible with 12.04 ? [14:00] ....it's on linux, pranav. [14:00] thebishop: is gnome-shell ok? [14:00] cgt: sudo do-release-upgrade -d [14:00] ActionParsnip, i haven't installed gnome shell... [14:00] pranav: what I linked on steam games on linux.... [14:00] Ari-Yang: ok.. :) [14:00] cgt, some windows applications are still needed. bean__, containers? like openvz virtualization? [14:00] thebishop: give it a go, you will then know if Compiz is the culprit [14:00] Atluxity: what about it? [14:01] esde: yeah [14:01] would I look into openvz or something by a different name? [14:01] my internet connection is not working properly on ubuntu and showed some error messages and so i had to format my computer again .... i use ubuntu with windows so now i had to install both of them again .... after dat wen i boot my computer with live usb of ubuntu and select the "try ubuntu" option... still da same prob occurs .... it shows dat my internet connection but wen i use any internet browser or anythng else it shows interne [14:01] ActionParsnip, i'm pretty sure it is compiz. I'm seeing 5 compiz processes (is that normal), and they idle around 25% of cpu usage, frequently hitting 80% across all 4 available threads [14:01] Guten Tag zusammen. Nun wird endlich meine externe HD an der Fritzbox erkannt und ich kann im Thunnar und Nautilus darauf zugreifen. Nun kommt das nächste Problem: In "Back in time" kann ich die Adresse "smb://192.168.178/XXXX" als Speicherort nicht eingeben. Im Ordner media und mnt ist die HD ebenfalls nicht zu finden. Wat nu? [14:01] you said "what", thats my elaboration [14:01] thebishop: no, you should only have one [14:02] greetings, any IRC channel you would suggest where i can get pure-ftpd / ldap supprt ?

[14:04] Ari-Yang: I watched escape-goat, and my i thought - those were the days, people used to have so much fun in games like that. wish the trend of such games repeat :) [14:04] bean__: been there done that =] not getting auth completed, looking for more ways to depug / where i can get error reporting, even with multiple verbose logging on pure ftpd I cannot see what is happening on the ldap side [14:04] bean__: wat shuld i provide den?? [14:04] i have created a link ln -s /home/Ubuntu /var/www/ubuntu how can i delete this ? [14:04] pranav: uhhh... that's nice but this is a support channel... for offtopic discussion you'd join #ubuntu-offtopic [14:05] xtriz: rm /var/www/ubuntu [14:05] it seems rtorrent doesn't need me to specify the incoming port. UPnP FTW? [14:05] xtriz: Probably prepended with sudo [14:06] genii, ok :) [14:07] I am trying to install a C++ library. Depending on what shell I use I am supposed to do add s.th. to my PATH in different ways (http://pastebin.com/Edgtfn0k). [14:07] 1. I am running Ubuntu 13.04 (Unity), which shell do I have? [14:07] 2. Is it secure and common to add sth to PATH anyway? [14:07] siwica: unity is the shell [14:07] siwica: you can add to the PATH as you desire [14:07] my internet connection is not working properly on ubuntu and showed some error messages and so i had to format my computer again .... i use ubuntu with windows so now i had to install both of them again .... after dat wen i boot my computer with live usb of ubuntu and select the "try ubuntu" option... still da same prob occurs .... it shows dat my internet connection but wen i use any internet browser or anythng else it shows interne [14:08] ActionParsnip: Somebody told me it would be unusual and he wouldnt recommend me doing it, although I dont see a security concern. [14:08] ActionParsnip: I am quite a Linux novice though [14:08] subby1: so do you have internet in ubuntu or not? I cannot discern it with all the 'dat' and 'da' nonesense. [14:08] hi [14:08] subby1: try typing infull sentances and in english, it makes solving your issue a lot easier [14:08] is anyone here [14:09] I've got a little question about the new release [14:09] siwica: its not good practice to add pwd to PATH, that is a security concern [14:09] ActionParsnip: fck off [14:09] siwica: but if you have your own app in a folder, you can add that folder to PATH and run it easily === njin is now known as fabiooo [14:09] ActionParsnip: what does pwd mean? [14:10] SunTsu: you wrote a lot but it means nothing, can you rephrase please [14:10] siwica: 'print working directory' [14:10] siwica: its a command :) [14:10] Is the brightness problem solved in Ubuntu 13.10? [14:10] ActionParsnip: thanks, I am learning ;) [14:10] siwica: we all are :) [14:10] pumpi3, lenovo laptop? [14:10] yeah [14:10] My dual-panel displays are being detected as as laptop, does anyone know how to correct this? [14:10] I've got a Ideapad Y500 [14:10] pumpi3, no idea but you could give the live iso a try [14:10] pumpi3: Brightness problem? [14:11] ActionParsnip: so what would be the way to add something to PATH on startup on my configuration? [14:11] yeah [14:11] pprldr [14:11] It's been working fine now for a long time [14:11] I can't adjust my brightness in 12.04 or 12.10 or 13.04 [14:11] it remains at the maximum [14:11] and that really hurts my eyes :p [14:11] siwica: you can add it in ~/.bashrc to add to your user, or add it to /etc/environment to set it system wide [14:12] tried various workflows and now I'm hoping it's solved in 13.10 [14:12] but today it wouldn't boot, so I went into the system recovery options. I ran dpkg and resumed booting, now it's as though my display is a laptop [14:12] ActionParsnip: ok, sounds good. The instructions said "~/.bash_profile" [14:13] subthalamus: notice how people writing in English get replies. That's not a coincidence [14:13] ActionParsnip: Though ~/.bash_profile doent exist yet [14:13] siwica: try it, its a text file so easily editable [14:13] siwica: ~/.bashrc is my choice but you could try making the file to test [14:14] Hello, i installed nvidia driver and rebooted, everything works fine but my themes are messed up... i like radiance by i can only get ambiance [14:14] i am like what the frack... [14:15] ActionParsnip: ok, I'll try [14:15] pumpi3: adding "acpi_backlight=vendor" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub worked for me.

[14:21] umm #defocus channel [14:21] but somewhat it got connected today morning after long session [14:21] I am really frustrated about 12.04 LTS [14:21] it was never the case in my older versions [14:21] ActionParsnip: It a never ending learning process with linux it seems. But I think I learned more about computers in the past 6 months than before in my entire life ;) [14:22] please somebody give me some permanent solution for this [14:22] For those of oyu who use spamassassin, do you know where the .lm (as in lm/en.lm) packages for textcat are? === david is now known as Guest11000 [14:24] siwica: sam with any OS [14:24] ActionParsnip: ...thats not just hidden behind a pretty GUI ;) [14:24] sash87: did you search the web for 12d1:1505 as that is the ID [14:25] siwica: windows + powershell = lots of fun and power [14:25] what ?? I did not get you === neon__ is now known as Guest6099 [14:25] sash87: '12d1:1505' is the ID of the device, did you use it in websearches? [14:25] no [14:25] sash87: I suggest you do [14:26] then ? [14:26] sash87: then you may find guides, what else? [14:28] sash87: it's like old Mr. Sun Tzu said: learn your enemy [14:28] so you can btichslap it [14:29] Is there a way to tell if ZSWAP is active? In Ubuntu [14:32] philinux, swapon -s maybe ? [14:33] -s, --summary display summary about used swap devices and exit [14:34] what enhacements have been done in the new released ? anyone tried the new release yet? [14:34] tucemiux, your point? [14:34] tucemiux, i.e. install it and see for yourself? [14:34] cfhowlett, my point is if it's worth upgrading? o.O [14:34] krux: not swap Zswap http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQwODI [14:34] tucemiux, good question! personally, I run only LTS as I don't need to risk my system every 6 months. [14:34] cfhowlett, if you haven't tried it then why are you replying? [14:35] tucemiux: its a rather subjective question... only you can answer that [14:35] tucemiux, your mileage may vary [14:35] tucemiux: raring is eol in January 2014, so you may have to if you are using it and want continued support [14:35] ahh i see :) [14:35] cfhowlett: glad to see I am not the only one using LTS. Thought on my laptop I took my brave pills and am running 13.04 [14:36] tucemiux, badly phrased question on my part ... no slight/slap intended [14:36] ActionParsnip, yeah there's one very good piece of information, I don't typically use the LTS versions [14:36] tucemiux: http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/10/ubuntu-13-10-review-the-linux-os-of-the-future-remains-a-year-away/ [14:36] raub, I see you like to live dangerously! fwiw, next LTS is 14.04 so ... only 6 months to wait! [14:37] philinux, thanks for the link, i'm going to catch up on salamander, meanwhile I'm going to start the upgrade [14:37] hey, on 13.04 i had a problem where my desktop froze, and i pressed ALT+CTRL + F3 to drop into shell and saw from TOP that compiz was using 100+ percent of the CPU. I killed the PID three times but it kept coming back, and i reset compiz with no luck [14:37] tucemiux: maybe best to wait a month for much of the initial bugs to be cleaned out [14:37] any idea what could cause this? [14:37] tucemiux: running on two machines here just fine and with Mir [14:37] hi all [14:37] cfhowlett: I still have at work some 10.04 boxes I am tryting to persuade Them to let me move to 12.04 :) [14:37] oscalation: what gpu do you use ? [14:37] I got a really old laptop and im wondering How well it can run on an old laptop? [14:38] raub: 10.04 server is still supported [14:38] oscalation, on 13.04 my printer stopped working, hopefully 13.10 will make up for that one, nowadays I'm forced to print using windows [14:38] At least I got the go ahead to upgrade the 11.X to 12.04 :) [14:38] raub, 10.04? server I hope as desktop is end of life. [14:38] jmgk: use Lubuntu or Xubutnu [14:38] how can i download a folder that is hosted on apache ? [14:38] ah [14:38] hitsujiTMO: no serious bugs here [14:38] why? [14:38] cfhowlett: servers [14:38] i tried wget but what i download is index.html file [14:38] jmgk: the are designed to use fewer resources [14:38] jmgk, upvote for lubuntu/xubuntu on old devices. [14:38] ActionParsnip: Geforce GTS 250 [14:38] ah I see [14:38] Do you guys use laptops often? [14:39] or desktops generally Linux wise [14:39] ? [14:39] hi [14:39] tucemiux: you should also read the release notes > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucySalamander/ReleaseNotes [14:39] jmgk, lappy only here [14:39] nice [14:39] oscalation: does your cpu also have a GPU? [14:39] I prefer lappy [14:39] cfhowlett: what kind? [14:39] I use centos or ubuntu LTS as servers. Thought my firends call me wimp for not using gentoo ;) [14:39] jmgk: both [14:39] I got an i7 [14:39] ;) [14:39] no, i dont think so. its an intel i5 3rd gen [14:39] oscalation: if you run: sudo lshw -C display do you see an Intel and an Nvidia GPU? [14:39] help. I'm ssh'ing into this box, and I accidently overwrote the root .ssh id_rsa. Could that be a problem do you think? [14:39] Im getting another monitor [14:39] oscalation, in between, I run ubuntu without effects, I still haven't figured out how to configure the drivers for the gtx 660 [14:39] desktop ftw, but got a laptop for easy access [14:39] ah [14:40] when the connection closes, will I be locked out? [14:40] ActionParsnip: when i rebooted i came into windows , im not able to access the terminal at the second [14:40] !mutt [14:40] was i right to try and kill the PID, and use i think it was "compiz restart" ? I couldnt remember what else to try [14:41] !help [14:41] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [14:41] how can i unrar an .img file again?

Will the tablet version be released later? [14:41] !touch|oal, [14:41] oscalation: if you have a sandy / ivy bridge then you will need bumblebee [14:41] oal,: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [14:41] ActionParsnip: convert then?

What ./configure flags etc, to build your own, but keep the same file locations etc [14:54] ActionParsnip, where would i look for a possible log for the last freeze up?

If you get no screen drop to root recovery mode [14:56] memyself: not very good [14:56] kk thanks [14:56] ActionParsnip: you are right, it should be acpi-support [14:56] should i forget it then [14:57] or r there other options [14:57] memyself, you should probably check in #whinehq instead of here, as that is really a wine question, not general Ubuntu support.

I installed a minimal ubuntu system and I need to just enable the wireless drivers (I believe brcm80211) The chipset is BCM43236. It is an AE2500 by cisco [15:50] what is that? [15:50] anyone else with a Zenbook who can't boot 13.10 properly? [15:50] sleepee: I mean, does the screen rotate like a tablet does when you physically rotate the device? [15:51] Ivaldi_: try booting with nomodeset [15:51] Ivaldi_ i have issues trying to install 13.10, too... live session runs normally [15:52] ohhhh.. no. afaik, i don't have that feature. it's a touch screen, but not the kind where you can flip the screen all the way over and use it as a tablet in that way.

[15:56] i am sparta [15:56] !!!! [15:56] guest__: what exactly is happening with your wifi card? do you also get drops or can you not connect at all? [15:57] AFinn: Try unchecking in software&updates all the checked items in other software [15:57] Jazlin17, #ubuntu-offtopic , NOT here [15:57] sleepee: I'm surprised that you have wifi!

[16:04] xtriz: Which? [16:04] ...OOOPppss. I seemed to hae installed Ubuntu 13.10, but I have to have my USB jump drive plugged in before it boots? Otherwwise I get a Blankscreen with a cursor blinking and that is it. [16:04] hmmm... my original problem with networking in general. with NetworkManager i couldn't connect thru wifi or lan cable at all. i manually connected to my wifi thru command line with wpa_supplicant. after i connected once, magically i was able to connect via NetworkManager afterwards. [16:05] SonikkuAmerica, xchat [16:05] which service controls alsa? for some reason also is not loading at boot so i find myself typing the command 'sudo also force-reload' each time i login. [16:05] not sure if you could try connecting to your wifi through your terminal and seeing if that works... i'm just spitballing here... [16:06] xtriz: You don't need source for that... Just [ sudo apt-get install xchat ] [16:07] SonikkuAmerica, i am just trying to do it from source, to learn things. [16:07] and SonikkuAmerica, we ended up taking back that HP 2000, got an Asus 501 laptop and got Linux install and a ton of useful software on it, and it is on its way to Malawi, Africa. So thanks for the help [16:07] xtriz: I recommend hexchat over xchat.... [16:08] xtriz: http://hexchat.github.io/ [16:08] Ari-Yang, checking out hexchat [16:08] zup.

[16:09] wilee-nilee: when I booted the usb, I did it in uefi I think, so when I did a full install, I'm not sure where it went [16:10] and running ubuntu 13.10 [16:10] sleepee: I'd recommend first changing the channel your wireless network broadcasts on, using your router settings, to see if this fixes it [16:10] wilee-nilee: would I have to do the boot-repair-disk and fix that issue? If so might it be easiest if I just reinstalled and if I did that what might I do differently? [16:11] designbybeck: I would try the bootrepair app, grub is not in the right place most likely. [16:11] thanks rory [16:11] bootrepair, being the other ISO you download and boot from to fix grub wilee-nilee ? [16:11] hmmmm.. i'll try that out. even though my router seems to work just fine with every other wireless device in my house... but i'll check it out. [16:12] designbybeck: First check your BIOS settings to make sure you are set to boot from the right drive [16:12] designbybeck: you can use the regular install live or theirs. [16:12] ah [16:12] designbybeck: Other than that, it's possible the bootloader was somehow installed to the USB flash drive instead, in which case you'll have to repair Grub [16:12] ok let me try to reboot off this USB and try that [16:12] !grub | designbybeck use the link to "repair grub after installing Windows" [16:12] designbybeck use the link to "repair grub after installing Windows": GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[16:14] guest___: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/WPA_supplicant [16:14] xtriz: Yes, if there are Ubuntu-specific patches to the source [16:14] arch has a good little write up on how to connect.

[16:17] then wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf [16:17] then dhclient wlan0 [16:17] Hello! Does anyone know how could I run a bash script without modify data from disk? Somthing like a sandbox? [16:18] Dooma: unless you're on a read only filesystem it's unlikely. [16:18] anyone with an optimus setup having problems with 13.10? [16:19] What I want to do is to test my bash scripts(run them until they do what I want), and avoid destroying test files. [16:19] sleepee: DOesn't work, I get the error message from rfkill that the wifi is hard blocked. [16:19] ok. i changed my router's channel. it was on channel 6. i set it to Auto. let's see if i get any drops. shouldn't take more than 3 or 4 minutes to tell..

[16:19] xtriz: You use the dpkg-buildpackage command [16:19] gordonjcp: Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro [16:19] xtriz: It has the Debian/Ubuntu build scripts not a custom ./configure like when you get it from upstream [16:20] guest___: okay, how old is that?

[16:21] i'll let the pros handle that one. this one's out of my league [16:21] guest___: now on my old HP laptop I needed to go in the BIOS and turn that feature off, because it got its knickers in a twist occasionally and hard-blocked wifi even without a cable in [16:21] xtriz: Take a look here http://askubuntu.com/questions/28372/how-do-i-get-the-source-code-of-packages-installed-through-apt-get [16:24] well... changing the channel to auto didn't work. i'll try to changing it to a specific channel and see if that works out.

[16:52] <`Dooku> ikonia I am trying to install psyBNC following the instructions but I keep getting an eror [16:52] `Dooku: what instructions ? [16:52] ikonia. what can i do about that? [16:52] TandyUK: So aparently nobody who uses this channel knows the answer. Contact the manufacturer.

[16:52] ikonia, i told you i am stilll learning :) [16:53] crash_: sort your repos out - did you read the upgrade instructions, the one about disabling all 3rd party repos before upgrading ? (eg: your stram repos) [16:53] xtriz: yes, but you should know how to install a deb before trying to build a deb [16:53] ikonia, hmmm [16:53] `Dooku: they are terrible instructions. [16:53] TuxBlackEdo: correct. since ARM is a different instruction set. [16:54] Hi, Does a CIDR like 192.168.100.0/24 mean anything .0 - .255? === karlo is now known as karlo|afk [16:54] TandyUK: BGT3620 is unsupported : http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T2_PCIe_Cards , not sure if it is same as BGT3600 from hardware standpoint [16:54] Dave9: yes. [16:54] <`Dooku> ikonia can you recommend a better set? [16:54] `Dooku: not without searching the web [16:54] bean__: So that's the same as putting '192.168.100.0 - 192.168.100.255' ? [16:55] usually its better to use CIDR notation, Dave9 [16:55] bean__: OK Thanks! [16:55] faugusztin: that info is from january 2011 [16:56] <`Dooku> ikonia I found this here as well and it has the same intructions: http://mewbies.com/how_to_install_psybnc_tutorial.htm [16:56] TandyUK: why do you think the situation changed ? :) [16:56] Okaay, so I just upgraded to 13.10, and now I can't switch keyboard layouts with Alt+Shift. What gives? How to set it up? [16:56] `Dooku: yes, and I think they are sloppy and should not be typed blind [16:57] theadmin: (I didn't know you could do that in the first place) [16:57] ikonia: Was the default until 13.10... [16:57] faugusztin: from the manufacturer: Linux - BGT36xx Source Code Release: [16:57] 24/05/2013 [16:57] TandyUK: I had no idea [16:58] TandyUK: where is it released then, they should be either stating the kernel version it was released into, or the external package. [16:58] TandyUK: well that is not an in-kernel driver, but you can try it if you wish. 3rd party drivers are never a good idea in my opinion, as you will have to rebuild them every time new kernel gets released [16:58] but id like confirmation from somwone who actually owns one and can confirm the drivers actually work before i go and spend a LOT of money :P [16:58] TandyUK: the obvious solution would be to contact them and ask them if they are not making it clear on their website [16:58] I can go to System Settings -> Text Entry and try to change the shortcut there, but pressing Alt+Shift simply does nothing in the shortcut field. [16:58] ofc the mfr is going to say it works lol [16:58] TandyUK: no they are not [16:58] meh need a new wifi adapter .. rt2800usb module is extremly buggy since linux > 3.3 :/ a lot of tx drops [16:58] i dont 'trust' the mfr, im looking for a thrid party to confirm what they say [16:58] TandyUK: Buy one and send it to the developers. [16:59] TandyUK: they should be able to give you basic information, such as what kernel it was released into, or what external package they supply [16:59] TandyUK: based on that information, other people should be able to help you [16:59] theadmin: system settings -> text entry [17:00] hitsujiTMO: Right. I press Alt+Shift, it falls back to a weird default of Ctrl+Space instead of accepting my choice. [17:00] TandyUK: there is a whopping number of 1 released of that driver, ever (according to their own changelog) :) [17:00] Ctrl+Alt+T isn't working to open a terminal, either. [17:00] theadmin: sorry did not see your later reply [17:00] ikonia i'm in Pakage Manager, now what do i do? [17:00] which service controls alsa? for some reason also is not loading at boot so i find myself typing the command 'sudo also force-reload' each time i login. [17:01] crash_: did you read the release notes about disabling 3rd party repos before upgrading ? [17:01] faugusztin: and a whopping 0 reports of anyone actually using it sucessfully ;) === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler [17:01] Hm, maybe logging out and back in would help... [17:01] ikonia: no [17:01] Be right back. [17:01] TandyUK: the other thing to consider is if the company is making it this "hidden" what they have released and how - do you trust them to maintain it [17:01] crash_: ok, so that is an unwise move, [17:01] !upgrade | crash_ [17:01] crash_: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [17:01] So far I am loving the update, with one exception. I get an error trying to use all three of my monitors. _gnome_2drr_2derror_2dquark.Code2:could not set the configuration for CRTC 63 [17:01] why not just upgrade from the cd ? [17:01] crash_: I strongly recommend reading the upgrade notes for future references, [17:02] crash_: the first thing to do is to remove the precises packages, and remove the references to the precise repos, then update your system and make sure it is "sane" on raring [17:02] TandyUK: my opinion is that it will work with the 3.9.1 kernel they developed it against, and with each newer version there is a risk of incompatibility, as kernel API sometimes changes. it's up to you if you will hope it will get to kernel sometime in future, or not. my personal opinion is don't do it [17:03] ikonia: is that covered in them links you provided? [17:04] TandyUK: while my DVB-C/T card is depending on 3rd party V4L tree too, it is developed by an independent party, so i am not depending on manufacturer (Digital Devices Cine C/T). Or just get a supported USB DVB-T stick :) [17:04] theadmin: i believe alt+shift will not work anymore as there are conflicts with other keyboard commands: tab = start switcher in reverse [17:04] ikonia: wouldn't it be a lot simpler to update directly from the cd or would you still have to disable the same 3rd party repositories? [17:05] TandyUK: previous drivers from them: "The BlackGold 1.0.0.791 BGT36xx series drivers are compiled for the 3.0.0-12 kernel. They don't seem to load on anything later, even say 3.0.0-14." [17:06] well you seem to have found way more info than i did :P [17:06] seems like its worth avaoiding :( [17:06] TandyUK: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1890981 [17:06] how do you install openoffice ?

[17:07] Package openoffice.org is not available, but is referred to by another package. [17:08] ikonia: there is no update for 13.10 in Software Updater? [17:08] leeshaste i don't believe openoffice is actually in the repo, as libre office is there instead [17:09] lesshaste: you have to get OpenOffice directly from them and may have to purge libreoffice, why you I do not know. [17:09] would* [17:09] lesshaste, you would need to install openoffice through a third party ppa, as Ubuntu has switched to libre office [17:09] wilee-nilee, ah ok thanks. .it seems there is something called oxygen openoffice too now [17:09] is pricing for landscape public info? anyone have a link?

[17:15] belgianguy, nope, just the Intel 4000 [17:15] jpedroza2k: there are compiz resets on the web for 13.10 [17:16] jpedroza2k: ah, then it's not that, disregard previous comment [17:16] Why does it take about 5 seconds to start listing the files (via `ll`) in my home directory? [17:16] When I type in a url or fill in boxes such as email address and password, I can't read what I am typing because the type and background are too similar in color [17:17] anyone running 13.10 ? [17:17] gmachine: Go to the "Appearance" system configuration widget [17:17] Alright, I edited /etc/default/keyboard and it's fixed now. [17:17] you can change your color scheme there [17:17] Hello. I have a externa ntfs partition and a external ext4 partition, how would I move files between them? [17:17] should work [17:17] tux_: Yeah.

So long as they are mounted [17:18] theadmin, can you see if you have this little bug, in the security / policy settings... [17:18] CatKiller: let me try again, and make sure they are mounted. [17:18] kaduba: Maybe your NTFS partition is mounted read/only? Could you paste the output of "mount" somewhere? [17:18] theadmin, under diagnostics, is the lock option broken for you ? [17:18] hitsujiTMO: I can't see an apt.log [17:18] tux_: Security/policy settings? Where would I find that? [17:18] could I do the upgrade from the terminal, and have it be more verbose? [17:18] gmachine_24: Not easy to know where that widget is to be honest I had to look for it myself once :p [17:18] CatKiller: where would I find the mount output (since it does it by itself)? [17:18] theadmin, System settings, or just type privacy in dash and it will appear [17:18] kaduba: In a terminal type "mount" [17:19] you first need to open "terminal" from the launcher [17:19] then typing "mount" and pressing "enter" [17:19] tux_: ...yup, the button does nothing. [17:19] belgianguy: look at logs in /var/log/apt [17:20] theadmin, do you have a launchpad account? wanna file the bug..? [17:20] hitsujiTMO: term.log or history.log? [17:21] tux_: Might have already been filed... I'm not 100% sure though. But this isn't a clean install, but an upgrade from 13.04, so god knows whether this issue is a real issue or something broke during an upgrade. [17:21] hitsujiTMO: I dunno. Weird enough. But as stated, I edited /etc/default/keyboard and it works nao. [17:21] theadmin, just installed fresh so .. [17:22] belgianguy: not sure which you need to look at but have a look at the bottom of both ...

It takes about five seconds to list the files in my home directory if I haven't done so in a while.

[17:35] jpedroza2k: Is there a way to test how long it takes to spin up? [17:35] Rarrikins, that depends on the drive, afaik.

[17:51] belgianguy: Could well be the servers are being hammered with people upgrading, may be worth looking at a different source rather than the default one [17:51] DJones: well it really crashes atm, so I doubt it's the servers [17:51] it even suggests to file a bug [17:52] How is 13.10 treating everyone?

I have a Zenbook with an integrated intel graphics card and a dedicated nVidia card. My Xorg log says that /dev/dri/card0 does not exist. lshw shows both of my cards as UNCLAIMED. [17:53] hitsujiTMO: would there be a way to fix my broken packages? [17:53] but i think it's because i got new hardware though... [17:53] or is it FUBAR? [17:53] krz: Probably do-release-upgrade. [17:53] hi viviekanda [17:53] Hi Vivekananda_ [17:53] belgianguy: how did you install your graphics device? [17:53] krz: You shouldn't need to do a full reinstall. [17:53] it wouldn't be so bad, but the freaking installer already partitioned my hard drive when it crashed [17:53] so that leaves me with a borked system [17:53] hitsujiTMO: manually, from ATI site, ./amd-file.run [17:54] so is there somewhere i on the ubuntu forums or anywhere where i could tell people about a fix i found? [17:54] Rarrikins: well 12.04 to 13.10 had some issues [17:54] so i can see how a full reinstallation can help big time [17:54] DJones, I have asked several questions, guess there are no answers. [17:54] krz: Yeah, I think that's intended mainly for just one edition to the next rather than a jump. [17:54] "you shouldnt need to" is just being kind [17:54] but I don't know what is blocking it, and which are just "warningsé [17:54] linux is not kind [17:55] Is there a way to select another mirror to download 13.10?

[17:55] krz linux is user friendly but he chooses his friends [17:55] atleast* [17:55] Hi! I installed ubuntu 12.04 LTS in a pre-existing LVM on LUKS system by using cryptsetup and vgchange [17:55] idk, I was looking for a direct download... [17:55] btw for anyone wanting to install 13.10, don't try and login to ubuntu one, just skip logging it, it will crash and generally give you a bad day [17:55] krz: If you're sticking with LTS, it's best to wait for 14.04. [17:55] krz: There should be a nice upgrader for that. [17:55] Then I chrooted inside and modified /etc/crypttab properly [17:55] and rebuilt initramfs. But... It's not booting, what else should I do? [17:55] Guys, I was on Finel Beta 2, and after 13,10 Final was out - I did not receive any upgrade or -distro-upgrade. Anyone else ? [17:55] belgianguy: i think that's your problem ... the ati installer would have overwritten most of your packages [17:56] i downloaded 13.10 from torrents [17:56] jpedroza2k: I'd ask your question again, people may have missed it or somebody new could have joined & may know the answer [17:56] (by not booting, I mean that it won't unlock the disk [17:56] on 13.10, is skype updated? [17:56] ANN-TechCoder: 13.10 beta to final is just a normal upgrade via apt-get dist-upgrade, as usual [17:56] then I will use a torrent... thanks :P [17:56] skype currently is a b*tch [17:56] hitsujiTMO: what's the most stable ATI driver that would allow me to proceed?

[17:57] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads [17:57] krz: I don't think the Ubuntu repos have Skype. Try getting the latest version from their website.

There is nothing is syslog nor in dmesg. [17:57] ANN-TechCoder: because there were no updates since yesterday :) [17:57] ubuntu 12.04 - ATI card didn't have drivers loaded so I couldn't get higher res than 1280x1024 so I followed this turorial: http://ubuntuportal.com/2012/03/new-ati-catalyst-12-3-has-been-released-how-to-install-in-ubuntu-12-04-and-linux-mint-12.html [17:57] DJones, didn't want to be a pest. :) [17:57] ANN-TechCoder: why would you expect new updates just because final ISOs were made and published ? [17:57] and if you want skype on 64 bit ubuntu, get the 32bit version of skype [17:57] So Final Beta 2 was the final release - fun [17:57] now, since rebooting desktop defaults to gonme classic and I get a lot of lines on the screen when curso moves [17:57] any idea how I can undo? [17:58] ANN-TechCoder: no, you instaled beta 2, you had some normal updates, which did bring you up to the package status of final ISO [17:58] belgianguy: its not something that can be fixed by installing a package ... usually the ati grpahics bundles its own xorg from what i understand [17:58] the 64 bit skype version will fail to install because of ia32-libs [17:58] ok. [17:58] thanks [17:58] Can someone help me with installation of google chrome on my freshly installed 13.10, getting the following error [17:58] Dependency is not satisfiable: lib32gcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) [17:58] sleepee: i've been waiting for that to happen, debian got away from ia32-libs since last release [17:58] hitsujiTMO: so uninstall the ATI driver completely? [17:59] yea, i just found out a few days ago that ubuntu did away with ia32-libs as well. [17:59] linux|newb: Try running sudo aticonfig --initial [17:59] linux|newb: Then reboot and see if it's fixed. If not, ask again. [17:59] it threw me off when i was installing teamviewer and skype a couple days ago.

Since I update (not upgrade but only update 13.04 and I'm in 64bits on ASUS P5ND2-SLI) I can't boot on Sata because I go into busybox prompt.

[17:59] Rarrikins: did that, no go [17:59] linux|newb: Ahh [18:00] it would be nice if ubuntu made that a little more obvious. [18:00] however, just seen a bunch of new updates come in relating to X and stuff. gonna download and install, reboot and hope [18:00] belgianguy: i dont think the ati driver will uninstall cleanly .. you can try it but you could be without an xserver after it [18:00] sleepee: i can't believe they put the ubuntu one login thing in the installer without working out the bugs on it, i tried the ubuntu 13.10 beta, and it did the same thing to me then and there were a lot of bug reports on it, so i waited for the release, and nope, same thing [18:00] what is an undelete program for NTFS in linux [18:00] hitsujiTMO: yeah, I've been there before [18:00] root shell is fun :( [18:00] i mean, made it obviuos that you have to install multiarch/32bit now. [18:01] belgianguy, i would suggest just back up your data and do a clean install [18:01] calwig: photorec? [18:01] linux|newb: Try `sudo updatedb` then `locate fglrx-uninstall`. [18:01] linux|newb: See if that exists. [18:01] i'm giving canonical the benefit of the doubt since 13.10 isn't LTS. [18:01] linux|newb, can it be used to retrieve deleted NFTS files easily? [18:02] but they better get their S together by 14.04. [18:02] i really feel bad for you ubuntu support guys, you guys are really nice to sit here and atleast try and help people, canonical owes you guys a beer [18:02] Hello, so any issues with upgrading to 13.10? [18:02] * linux|newb saves Rarrikins: tip to gedit and will try after reboot - cheers [18:02] network-manager says no active connections found when I click 'connection information', and network connections from system tools > preferences lists my connections.. what's going on? [18:02] calwig: somewhat depends on the circumstances. most commonly it's used to recover files from drives of mostly any format [18:02] linux|newb: One more thing if you're doing it later: copy the path it finds and run it. [18:02] anyone else facing issues with installation of google chrome on 13.10 ? [18:03] linux|newb: Run it with sudo. [18:03] NimeshNeema: i didn't during the beta, what issue are you having? [18:03] linux|newb: http://askubuntu.com/a/88619/147763 [18:03] BluPhenix316: thanks for replying, this one Dependency is not satisfiable: lib32gcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) [18:03] i view all releases between LTS versions as *somewhat* stable betas or snapshots. and LTS as stable releases. that way i don't get surprised with the bugs [18:04] Rarrikins: thanks a lot [18:04] linux|newb: No problem [18:04] back soon [18:04] searching for that error just returns a lot of stuff from 12.10 and older... [18:04] NimeshNeema: http://askubuntu.com/questions/359530/google-chrome-update-wont-install-due-to-unmet-dependencies [18:05] My dialog of moving files disappeared, is there anyway I can get it back? [18:05] (right click doesn't seem to work) [18:06] NimeshNeema: that isn't a fix but it is information and it is confirmed that is a bug [18:07] Hello, I installed cyrus-imapd, configured it created a mailbox and I am connected to it with IMAP but I don´t have got an Inbox, can someone tell my why? [18:07] output of xrandr (if anyone is listening). http://pastebin.com/yLqaWHwe [18:07] brb lets see if this install has worked [18:07] BluPhenix316: this means i can not run google chrome ?, i have done a fresh install of 13.10 just now [18:08] NimeshNeema. in linux it's chromium-browser [18:09] AFAIK we have both chrome and chromium but only one of them can be installed at a time [18:09] not getting any internet download or upload on ubuntu.....but it shows that it is connected to internet.....and the internet connection is fine.....i hv connected my pc to my laptop through lan and my laptop is connected to my router through wifi and both the connections are bridged in my laptop.... [18:09] NimeshNeema. yes , and chromium is you best bet [18:09] your [18:10] BluesKaj: is that so ? i used to use chromium previously, but have been running chrome lately [18:11] think I screwed up my work laptop's MBR. had dual boot setup with grub, win7 and ubuntu. A piece of hardware on the laptop went out, so I deleted the ubuntu partition before sending it in with gparted on a live disk. Now nothing boots. Any assistance is appreciated [18:11] youll still re retrieve all your settings and bookmarks in chromium if you just uninstall chrome , NimeshNeema [18:11] Ok, Displays in system preferences is not cutting the mustard. Is there somewhere I can edit my display settings directly? [18:12] nimeshneema are you on 32bit or 64bit ubuntu? [18:12] not getting any internet download or upload on ubuntu.....but it shows that it is connected to internet.....and the internet connection is fine.....i have connected my pc to my laptop through lan and my laptop is connected to my router through wifi and both the connections are bridged in my laptop.... [18:12] JesperHead: Can you boot to an installer? [18:12] No issues so far after upgrading. Windows 7 loader is in the grub loader. :) [18:12] thanks for sharing that info, i am on my way to install chromium, as it's not having any dependency problems [18:12] jhutchins: booted into a live disk of debian/gparted right now [18:12] well if you skip the ubuntu one login page the installer works just fine, yay! [18:12] jhutchins: but... the disk doesnt recognize the trackpad... cli might be better [18:12] they can be installed both at the same time (chrome and chromium) .. just install libxss1 for chromne [18:12] JesperHead: You didn't saven an image of the partition you removed? [18:13] not getting any internet download or upload on ubuntu.....but it shows that it is connected to internet.....and the internet connection is fine.....i hv connected my pc to my laptop through lan and my laptop is connected to my router through wifi and both the connections are bridged in my laptop.... [18:13] jhutchins: no, it was my ubuntu partition though [18:13] BluPhenix316: are you referring to google chrome install ? i just uninstalled ubuntu one [18:13] ssj5goku, Are you able to browse to web sites? [18:13] One thing I have noticed, though this was also in 13.04 My sound settings aren't being remembered. I have a 5.1 system and it keeps defaulting to Analog Stereo [18:13] hitsujiTMO: 32 bit and used 32 bit installer of google chrome [18:13] JesperHead: You'll need to reinstall then, that will replace grub. [18:13] jpedroza2k: no... [18:14] JesperHead: if you deleted the ubuntu partition, you need to install the windows bootloader. From a windows repair disk: bootrec.exe /fixmbr [18:14] NimeshNeema: no, I just tried installing ubuntu 13.10 and when the installer gets to the ubuntu one login page, it crashes if you try to login, or atleast it did for me just now, and before in the beta as well [18:14] back to where I was at least - both displays working as they should with BIG desktop. however, still can't set either screen to a res higher than 1280x1024 :( [18:14] and I get mouse lag on login screen [18:14] bcbc2: thank you very much ill get on that [18:14] BluPhenix316: well i do not use ubuntu one so i usually remove it after a fresh install [18:14] jhutchins: thanks for your input as well [18:14] ssj5goku, That usually means you are only connected to the local network, not to the internet. Please pastebin the output of host www.ubuntu.com [18:14] jpedroza2k: i just cant acess the internet... [18:15] NimeshNeema: i'm gonna try and install google-chrome now and see what happens [18:15] ssj5goku: The internet is down, it was part of the US Gov't. shutdown. [18:16] Is there any way i can view nautilus move/copy progress outside of nautilus? [18:16] NimeshNeema: fyi i would expect the bug to be fixed within the next day or two, it would effect all 32bit users of debian based distros [18:16] ssj5goku, can you browse to a server by IP address (for example http://91.189.90.59 ubuntu.com) [18:16] BluPhenix316: that would be great [18:16] BluPhenix316: please share your experience [18:17] hitsujiTMO: thanks for sharing the info, i guess i should try again after a couple of days [18:17] NimeshNeema: it installed just fine for me, but i'm also using 64bit [18:17] &quit [18:18] BluPhenix316: Bah !!! that means it's a 32 bit only bug [18:18] jpedroza2k: no ....it feels like the internet led is not blinking on my router........but as i told you everything is fine and i also have a windows partition and everything just woorks fine [18:18] NimeshNeema: unfortunately, i'm sorry i can't do anything for you [18:18] BluPhenix316: well my machine is 64 bit capable, is there any reason i should stick with 32 bit version of ubuntu ? [18:18] Ubuntu 12.04 running a [AMD/ATI] Cedar [Radeon HD 5000/6000/7350/8350 Series] any idea how I achieve a higher screen res than 1280x1024? [18:18] NimeshNeema: not really [18:19] jhutchins: den how come my friends can acess internet while i cant?? [18:19] BluPhenix316: if you have any info in this area, is Android SDK still dependant on 32 bit ubuntu ? [18:19] NimeshNeema: i use to tell people don't go out of your way for a 64bit OS because the majority of applications being written are still for 32bit, but these days its better to just go with 64bit [18:19] BluPhenix316: Ah Ok [18:19] NimeshNeema: i never knew that it was, i've installed the android sdk on 64bit ubuntu before [18:20] NimeshNeema: that is what the multilib libraries are for [18:20] 64-bit is finally starting to become mainstream. [18:20] I need help... Since I update (not upgrade but only update 13.04 and I'm in 64bits on ASUS P5ND2-SLI) I can't boot on Sata because I go into busybox prompt. I installed my drive on a SATA-IDE Adapter, and now I can boot. But I can't install a drive on the sata port, if so, I go into busybox prompt at boot. [18:20] BluPhenix316: it used to be the case around an year ago IIRC. no idea if Android Studio works on 64 bit [18:20] DJ_Unibob: seems like [18:20] brb [18:21] I've noticed quite a few games for windows, though still 32-bit, are now LAA. [18:21] NimeshNeema: i don't understand why it wouldn't int he first place, 64bit is still 32bit compatible, the only issue i would see is if you had a 32bit system and were trying to run a 64bit program [18:21] the other way around shouldn't be a issue [18:21] jpedroza2k: u got anything for me??? [18:22] BluPhenix316: as i told you on a 64 bit install, there used be problems with Android SDK install [18:22] guys, I have a problem with mounting NTFS partitions in ubuntu, when using multiple users login - if one user mounts, the other one cant access the mount... [18:23] left before I got back... [18:23] NimeshNeema: yes i understood what you told me, i just don't understand how that is all [18:23] BluPhenix316: well i have been using OS X on my work machines, and it was nice how apple transitioned from 32 bit OS to 64 bit one, (as far as running 3rd party apps are concerned), although at the cost of compiling fat binaries [18:23] So.. anyone think there's a window manager on ubuntu that will handle a qhd+ screen? [18:23] buu, I can't even get 13.10 to handle 3 displays [18:24] haha [18:24] NimeshNeema: originally when you installed the ia32-libs, 32bit programs and sdks would see the system as 32bit or multilib [18:24] NimeshNeema: i'm not saying you are wrong, i'm just saying it is really odd [18:27] anyway, now that pipelight is installing, after that completes now its the fun part, installing nvidia drivers [18:27] BluPhenix316: yeah, thats the reason why [18:29] NimeshNeema: i've always used eclipse for android development though I dont' think i've used this Android Studio [18:29] Can anyone tell me where display errors are logged? [18:29] jpedroza2k: in /var/log/Xorg.log [18:29] Xorg.0.log [18:30] BluPhenix316, is that still true for 13.10? [18:30] BluPhenix316: i think i should wait for a couple of days and hope the bug gets resolved as hitsujiTMO pointed out [18:30] jpedroza2k: yeah Xmir and Mir's release got pushed back [18:30] xmir got pushed back, not mir [18:31] hitsujiTMO: yeah but 13.10 is still using Xorg not Mir [18:31] xorg is there as a fallback [18:31] BluPhenix316, I am getting an error on applying settings in Display preferences, but I do not see that error in the log === io is now known as IdleOne [18:32] Hi guys! I have installed Ubuntu from Live CD in a LVM on LUKS [18:32] i seem to be running mir now [18:32] hitsujiTMO, How can you tell? [18:32] hitsujiTMO: according to every article I see about ubuntu 13.10 release it says Mir's release was pushed back [18:32] I chrooted into the installed system, added crypttab and ran update-initramfs -u... Now I get a evms_activate is not available [18:32] jpedroza2k: http://askubuntu.com/questions/330862/how-do-i-find-out-if-my-system-is-using-mir [18:32] How do I fix it? [18:33] I think my problem is with sata_nv module. And on my motherboard, I can't put the drive in ahci mode. [18:33] BluPhenix316: thats coz it was announced that xmir was pushed back, and many people presumed mir = xmir [18:33] some one knows about the "unity launcher spin for ever.." bug??? any FIX?? [18:33] any idea how to fix a crashing gnome-settings-deamon that makes me fall back on old clearlooks theme ? [18:34] hitsujiTMO: i don't even see Mir on my system [18:34] http://i.imgur.com/NzLajGe.png [18:34] after upgrading to 13.10.... === SonikkuAmerica is now known as i1 [18:35] BluPhenix316: look for unity-system-compositor [18:36] i did [18:36] nothing [18:36] thanks BluPhenix316 hitsujiTMO for your support [18:36] you must be on xorg as backup then [18:36] hitsujiTMO: i don't even have unity-system-compositor on my sysetm [18:36] not only is it not running, but it isnt' on my system at all [18:37] BluPhenix316, you have to install and enable it manually on 13.10 [18:37] BluPhenix316, mir with xmir that is [18:37] kostkon: we are talking about mir [18:37] is there a chanel where people are knowing more about hardware and kernel than here? [18:37] hitsujiTMO, said Mir was released with 13.10 [18:37] but XMir was pushed back [18:37] BluPhenix316, not possible at the moment on the desktop [18:38] BluPhenix316, not true [18:38] kostkon: thank you, you just made my point for me [18:38] maybe i'm wrong and that article is wrong [18:38] BluPhenix316, they may skip xmir altogether and go straight to mir on the desktop [18:39] hi guys, i have an ntfs partition, which i had lots of documents and sheets inside... But windows server has screwed them... how can i fix those files on linux? [18:39] hi all [18:39] BluPhenix316, time will tell [18:39] booh: #hardware [18:39] Hi everyone. :) I’m having trouble with dpkg – every time I run it (sudo dpkg --configure -a), it stalls at »regenerating fonts cache«. I currently have installed seven fonts other than the default system fonts, and /var/cache/fontconfig/ contains 2100 files with 4,2 Mb. Is this a known problem / does anyone have a solution? [18:39] kinda odd that: ps aux | grep unity-system-compositor is stating its working tho [18:39] hitsujiTMO: are you getting 2 lines or 1? [18:40] hitsujiTMO: if get one line, that is just repeating back to you the commmand you issued [18:40] YokoBR: It depends on what happened to the files. There isn't anything special about Linux that would restore them. [18:40] 23307 pts/1 S+ 0:00 | \_ grep --color=auto unity-system-compositor [18:40] hitsujiTMO: it is there and you can use it but it isn't installed by default (I have it enabled here too) [18:40] ahh then i am wrong [18:40] that is it repeating back to you the grep command [18:40] not that it is running [18:41] thanks jhutchins [18:41] jhutchins, i can't open those files, openoffice doesn't reconise the encoding, they are corrupted.. [18:41] man pipelight is awesome! [18:42] kostkon: thank you, you were just repeating what i was trying to tell hitsujiTMO but he was a little confused [18:42] BluPhenix316, :) what service are you using it for [18:42] BluPhenix316, indeed [18:42] kostkon: netflix, without having to use that netflix-desktop app [18:42] BluPhenix316, nice [18:43] kostkon: just gotta remember to use a user agent switcher [18:43] ok, now mir is running [18:43] BluPhenix316, yeah [18:43] hitsujiTMO, you installed it? [18:43] yes [18:44] did they fix that double mouse cursor bug with Xmir yet? [18:44] BluPhenix316, yes, it wasn't a bug though, just a way to tell you that you were runnnng mir [18:45] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6252572/ :P [18:45] kostkon: yeah i've heard that line before "its not a bug its a feature!" [18:45] it was there mostly for testing reasons [18:45] :P [18:45] Nobody able to help me? :( [18:45] Feal: whats your issue? [18:45] Is there a way to make the Unity launcher/taskbar show the name of the application, instead of the icon (or both, like standard taskbars)? I dont want to remember all these odd icons, it's taxing, I want to see words like "SciTe" "PDF Viewer", etc. [18:45] BluPhenix316: I’m having trouble with dpkg – every time I run it (sudo dpkg --configure -a), it stalls at »regenerating fonts cache«. I currently have installed seven fonts other than the default system fonts, and /var/cache/fontconfig/ contains 2100 files with 4,2 Mb. [18:45] kostkon: i'm not really even an ubuntu fan, i'm a arch user typically, i just wanted to give ubuntu another shot [18:46] Is there a way with the gnome DE to attach a personal image to a folder? [18:46] feal: how much time did you give it? it might be that it just takes a while [18:46] BluPhenix316, giving 13.10 a try? [18:46] kostkon: yeah [18:46] BluPhenix316, good good [18:47] hello [18:47] ';p [18:47] 'lo, even [18:47] kostkon: so far i'm not that impressed, especially with that nasty installer bug i ran into, which isn't that big of a deal but if your going to push a release atleast make the installer work like it is intended [18:47] BluPhenix316: I’ve given it around 40 hours now (2 and 5 hours respectively in earlier tries), and the size of /var/cache/fontconfig/ didn’t change anymore after about two minutes. [18:47] I think I am just going to have to roll back to 13.04 for this monitor issue. [18:48] BluPhenix316, :/ [18:48] Although the support team is demanding I install Windows 8 [18:48] feal: try control-c and then rebooting and trying again [18:48] They can have my FOSS when they pry it from my cold, dead hard drive. [18:48] I have Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit. If I understand correctly, 13.10 is out. Update-manager, including update-manager -d doesn't offer the new release ... why? [18:48] hi all [18:48] Eh. Having this problem starting a game: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [18:49] crak: hi [18:49] hello all [18:49] is there anyone that can help me write a shell scripts? I want to run a command, check the result, and depending on the result, either run one more command or do nothing. Any takers? [18:49] swift110_: 'lo again [18:49] scott_z: be more specific [18:49] !find libSDL-1.2.so.0 [18:49] File libSDL-1.2.so.0 found in libsdl1.2debian [18:49] kostkon: use apt-file [18:49] reisio, ? [18:49] kostkon: It's installed. [18:50] BluPhenix316: I tried that after the first try. Unfortunately, it didn’t help. :/ Is there any lock file or so that might be responsible for the behaviour? [18:50] kostkon: use apt-file instead of !find [18:50] i just updated to 13.10. i use apache2 with apache2-suexec-custom und fcgi. this does not work any more (403). i looked into the logs to get some hints but i couldn't find any [18:50] can anyone help? [18:50] reisio, ok next time ill do just that, i guess [18:50] Feal: rebooting should fix the lock file [18:50] where does the xrandr config file live? [18:50] apt-find richtext [18:51] jpedroza2k: same as xorg.conf/.d [18:51] gustav_: it's an app, you install it [18:51] !find apt-find [18:51] Package/file apt-find does not exist in saucy [18:51] o_O [18:51] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1227747 :( [18:51] Ubuntu bug 1227747 in gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) "[xrandr]: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in _XReply()" [Undecided,Confirmed] [18:52] I have a process that keeps crashing, dont know why. So what I want to do it check to see if it is running (ps -A | grep deluged). If that returns nothing then run deluged, if it does return something then do nothing. That is the script that I want to write but do not know how. Then after it works I will set it up as a cron for say every 30 min. That specific enough? :) [18:52] reisio, so in 13.10 that is in /usr/share/X11? [18:52] Well, libSDL-1.2.so.0 is in ldconfig path and still it says "No such file or directory." === charemma is now known as freudenschein [18:53] hi [18:53] I never thought I would miss the day whey I missed being able to edit an xorg.conf file. [18:53] when i installed default-jre along with it 10 other packages got installed, now when removing default-jre only that package is getting removed and not the other 10 packages that were installed along with them. [18:53] man my system setup is annoying [18:54] unless i add blacklist 915 to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf then the kernel thinks my computer has optimus [18:54] but i don't [18:54] synaptec app , can i install all the apps that has ubuntu logo next to it? [18:54] i have a descrete nvidia gfx card and a onboard intel gfx card, but there is no optimus [18:54] BluPhenix316: Do you mean /var/lib/dpkg/lock? That gets fixed. However, the problem still persists and trying to run apt-get upgrade throws an error that the dpkg process has been interrupted and dpkg would have to be run manually. Doing that results in setting up fontconfig (2.10.2-0ubuntu2) again and the mentioned stall at »Regeneration fonts cache«. [18:55] feal: have you tried rebooting into the recovery console and running dpkg --config -a? [18:55] jpedroza2k: probably still in /etc/ [18:55] sudo apt-get update === SirCmpwn is now known as SirCmpwn_ [18:55] Feal: other than that you would have to ask someone else because I don't have a clue === SirCmpwn_ is now known as SirCmpwn [18:56] BluPhenix316: Good idea, thank you. :-) I’ll try that; brb. [18:56] can someone help me ? [18:57] jboii_: with? [18:57] I seem to be completely unable to run three monitors with 13.10, even though it worked perfectly in 13.04. reverting [18:57] synaptec apps listed , can i just download those ? those ones with logo next to them ? [18:58] when i installed default-jre along with it 10 other packages got installed, now when removing default-jre only that package is getting removed and not the other 10 packages that were installed along with them. [18:58] those needed so the system will function best ? === p1l0t is now known as Guest7749 [18:58] does xrandr have a log file? Seriously, what does Configure crtc 2 failed [18:58] jboii_: you can install anything listed in a package manager [18:58] what is needed ? [18:58] jpedroza2k: /var/log/Xorg*log [18:58] jboii_: for what? [18:58] dev and debug files ? [18:58] those needed ? [18:59] reisio, Nothing logged there. [18:59] Seriously though has aanyone tried ubuntu on a high res screen? [18:59] file doesn't change when xrandr throws the error.

[19:01] did the user of apache2 changed? [19:01] jpedroza2k: If /var/log/Xorg.0.log is empty something is wrong. [19:01] jboii_: should be [19:02] jhutchins, not empty, but nothing is logged there when xrandr throws the error [19:02] jpedroza2k: oh, or is ubuntu using something else now? [19:02] reisio: perhaps you could point me in the direction of a shell script primer? [19:02] reisio, as given in the guide did sukdo apt-get purge and then sudo apt-get autoremove, but still only 1 package i.e. default-jre got removed and other 10 packages are left behind [19:02] scott_z: #bash could do a better job of that than I [19:02] hi [19:02] Pc_: hi [19:03] xtriz: well it's hard to say without seeing a log [19:03] Hi, i am searching for an image view with a slideshow feature. The slideshow starts with Image 1 and stops at the last image and wait for an new image in the folder. Does anyone know a programm with this freature [19:03] scott_z: what you asked for is pretty simple, though, if you care to be more specific [19:04] reisio: I have a process that keeps crashing, dont know why. So what I want to do it check to see if it is running (ps -A | grep deluged). If that returns nothing then run deluged, if it does return something then do nothing. That is the script that I want to write but do not know how. Then after it works I will set it up as a cron for say every 30 min. That specific enough? :) [19:04] reisio, ok np :) removed those packages manually for now [19:05] Morkel: i guess not. You could run Irfanview with wine. I did not find any solution on linux which would replace the functions of irfanview [19:05] sad but true [19:06] subz3r0: how is the quality / speed / stability when you run irfanview with wine? [19:06] subz3r0, sounds like a Metallica song [19:06] swift110_: lol [19:06] Morkel: depends on your machine. its pretty fast here with two cores [19:06] subz3r0: i will use a raspberrypi :-) [19:06] Morkel: i would recommend using playonlinux, as you can easily change wine versions with it and test which fits the best [19:07] Morkel: give it a try [19:07] scott_z: if pgrep -l deluged; then nohup deluged; fi [19:07] Is it possible to roll back to 13.04 after the 13.10 upgrade? [19:07] scott_z: o sorry that's backwards [19:07] jpedroza2k: not really [19:07] well, poop [19:08] maybe any1 else could give you an answer. i tried it years ago from x to 10.10 back and it did not work [19:08] !downgrade [19:08] Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported and may break your system. === Granis` is now known as Granis [19:08] Looks like the IT monkeys are going to install Windows 8 on the laptop now, since I can't get 3 monitors working. [19:08] jpedroza2k: Restore backup or reinstall. [19:08] exactly that happend to my system :) [19:09] I was just informed that if I have to reinstall, I will fall into (goose) step with the other developers and run Windows [19:09] and I have "wasted enough time" with "that Linux test". [19:09] guys quick question how do i update gpg, i see that ubuntus repos are out dated.. [19:09] anyone having sound issues in 13.10? [19:10] Psil0Cybin: they are not out dated, you use the packages in the ubuntu repo [19:10] reisio: thanks so much, ok, how do you make it forward? hup instead of nohup? I just don't know the syntax. :( [19:10] scott_z: if pgrep -l deluged; then return; else nohup deluged; fi [19:10] that's the cheap way :p [19:10] #bash would know better [19:11] Psil0Cybin: you could use a ppa. but why is the version outdated? which ubuntu version? if its a LTS it will only support security updates... not every crappy lil change [19:11] scott_z: you should probably just figure out why it's crashing, though [19:11] scott_z: look into strace [19:11] hm [19:11] anybody use mate on Ubuntu [19:11] last hope, is there a native Intel driver for 13.04? [19:11] ikonia: so i should not update, and leave as is? Im using 12.04 LTS, I dont want every crappy change i just want to make sure im fine with security updates [19:11] how can i make an mp3 file an ogg [19:11] because on the GPG site [19:11] i see they are like 3 versions ahead and patched plenty of issues [19:11] so i am confused [19:11] Psil0Cybin: you are fine where you are [19:11] okay [19:11] thanks [19:12] swift110_: mates not packaged by ubuntu, [19:12] impossible: lame -d it to wav, then oggenc it to ogg [19:12] Psil0Cybin: well so check the changelog. if the new version just came out today, it could take some days until its in the repos for and update on your site [19:12] impossible: or use ffmpeg -i foo.mp3 bar.ogg [19:12] Psil0Cybin, software in ubuntu always is patched against any vulnerabilities, even the old versions in 12.04. [19:12] so gpg 1.4.11 is fine compared to GnuPG saying that version 2.0.22 is released [19:12] but ill read the changelog [19:12] since im so parranoide === NaVaJo is now known as GreyOwL [19:12] reisio: that is exactly what I was looking for, down and dirty but works! Just a bandaid for now till i have time to really look into it. Thanks so much. [19:12] impossible: or use a gui frontend like handbrake or winff [19:13] impossible: or arista [19:13] If I change Prompt=lts to Prompt=normal in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades, is there anything that gets cached that would stop do-release-upgrade from finding new releases? [19:13] Psil0Cybin, it is as safe as its latest version [19:13] scott_z: np [19:13] ikonia, hmm [19:13] impossible: sorry, should've said lame --decode, not lame -d [19:15] is there a page that i can see must have apps ? [19:15] plufins also ? [19:16] kostkon: and ikonia thank you so much, im learning alot just was confused how come ubuntu had version 1.4.11 and gpg said on its site it released 2.2something a few weeks ago, so i was confused but as long as security wise everything is fine, then i dont care what version it states [19:16] i just want to be up to date security wise and make sure the program is working properly. [19:16] Psil0Cybin, you are. don't worry [19:16] someone here familiar with the unity launcher bug after upgrading to 13.10 [19:16] ? [19:17] oriez: "the"? [19:17] !details | oriez [19:17] oriez: 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 ..." [19:18] iceroot: when he does that, you are gonna complain about pastebinning multirow messages... [19:19] exalt: then he should do it correctly in the first try [19:19] exalt: its not that hard to ask useful questions [19:20] ok the unity launcher doesn't work... spin forever [19:20] thanks kostkon and ikonia you guys rock, for helping me thanks [19:20] iceroot: true, most time the answers are more difficult! [19:20] Psil0Cybin, :) [19:20] I thought I would make one last plea before I leave for help with this stupid graphics issue. I can only get two displays working with my intel 4000 graphics. I get "Configure crtc 2 failed" whenever I try and add a third monitor with xrandr. [19:21] probably: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1238929 [19:21] Ubuntu bug 1238929 in unity (Ubuntu) "Unity dash searches forever, no search results" [Undecided,New] [19:21] not sure... seems like.. [19:21] There are no other error messages, and I can find nothing in the logs that point me in the right direction. I am just sick at the thought of putting Windows on this laptop. [19:22] hey guys, for some reason my ubuntu server is having a hard time getting the linux kernel update: http://pastebin.com/PY089XdD can someone help me figure out what the problem is? [19:22] anyone know bout an app that makes it so twitter notifications pops up? [19:22] Is there a way with nautilus to add custom images outside of emblems to folders, or another file manage that can? [19:22] exalt: until now only 1 person reported that bug, noone said "affects me also" to the chances are not that high that someone will fix it when noone is hitting "affects me as well [19:22] exalt: sorry wrong nick [19:22] oriez: until now only 1 person reported that bug, noone said "affects me also" to the chances are not that high that someone will fix it when noone is hitting "affects me as well [19:22] jpedroza2k: is 4000 ivy bridge CPUs? [19:23] haswell [19:23] Dayofswords, yes [19:23] oriez: when you hit "affects me as well" the bug will marked as "confirmed" everything which is not "confirmed" is normally not checked [19:23] jpedroza2k: I found this bug on redhat's system https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=836765 [19:23] bugzilla.redhat.com bug 836765 in xorg-x11-drv-intel "[Ivy Bridge] Unable to configure 3 display multihead / X fails to start with 3 displays connected" [Medium,New] [19:23] iceroot: THX [19:23] iceroot: will do [19:23] Dayofswords, it was working with 13.04, it only borked with the upgrade. === Dave is now known as Guest55242 [19:24] how can i enable ufw such that it allows ssh connection ? [19:25] xtriz: that is the default [19:25] xtriz: ufw is disbaled by default and no ports are blocked [19:25] iceroot, yeah i want to enable it just allowing ssh connection [19:26] !ufw | xtriz [19:26] xtriz: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [19:26] xtriz: block everything incoming except port 22 [19:26] xtriz: sudo ufw allow 22; sudo ufw enable; sudo ufw status verbose [19:27] lots of useful information :) [19:27] xtriz: If you have an sshd listening on port 22 you will get brute force and DOS attacks. [19:27] jpds: is ufw blocking everything by default when it is enabled? [19:27] iceroot: Yep. [19:27] iceroot: Everything incoming. [19:28] jhutchins, so i should choose any random ports ? [19:28] jpds: yeah, sure. thx [19:28] xtriz: No. [19:28] Is there a way with nautilus to add custom images outside of emblems to folders, or another file manage that can? [19:28] xtriz: Use SSH keys. [19:28] xtriz: And disable password-based login. [19:28] jpds, ok :) [19:28] xtriz: Not random, but something that is not in use on your system and not a common service. [19:28] Yowl: you should be able to make a .desktop link with any icon you like [19:29] jpds: You will still get brute force and DOS attacks. [19:29] Yowl: not exactly the same as applying an image to an existing dir, but [19:29] jhutchins: Welcome to the Internet. [19:29] jhutchins: security by obscurity is not security [19:29] jhutchins: We also have cat pictures. [19:29] hi guys. Anyone know how can I make a folder accesible by www-data (for nginx) and deploy (for my deployment script user)? Thanks a lot! [19:29] jhutchins: for bruteforce, there is for example fail2ban [19:30] iceroot: There's better: sudo ufw limit 22 [19:30] Pici: No, but running ssh on an alternative port means you're paying attention to security, and even if a hacker portscans you and finds that port, you are probably a poor return-on-investment to try to brute-force. [19:30] jhutchins: No. === pbx-lunch is now known as pbx [19:30] jpds: on debian based systems, yes [19:30] jpds: i prefer solutions which are working on other systems as well but you are right [19:30] jpds: on ubuntu based systems [19:31] jhutchins: Do you think every single company in the world changes the port that they're SSHd is running on? [19:31] The problem with brute force attacks on port 22 is that they can cause sufficient load to effectively deny access. [19:31] Keep getting this error when attempting to activate the third monitor: GDBus.Error:org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._gnome_2drr_2derror_2dquark.Code2: could not set the configuration for CRTC 65 [19:31] iceroot: So, the iptables equivilant. :) [19:31] reisio: but I don't want it to be on my desktop, and I don't want to replicate all my folders with shortcut links just to attach the images I want to them [19:31] jpds: fail2ban is also using iptables :) [19:31] jpds, so whenever i want to listen for any service from remote location i need to enable incoming connections right ? [19:31] Unless the attacks are throttled upstream of the server, the server will become unresponsive, even if you use iptables throttling and fail2ban, because the packets reach the server anyway. [19:31] xtriz: Yep. [19:31] jpds, cool [19:31] jpds: and it is good that we have ufw and fail2ban, noone wants to mess with iptables directly. its like scripting in perl :) [19:32] fail2ban has been obsolete for about ten years since the hail mary botnet was discovered. [19:32] jhutchins: can you expand? [19:32] reisio: So no way to do it with nautilus? Is there another file manager that uses a alternative to emblems? Or is emblems even part of the file manager? [19:32] jpds: Every single company with decent security does, or does some other form of securing it, yes. [19:33] jpds: How large a network do you support? [19:33] jhutchins: Yep. [19:33] hey guys, for some reason my ubuntu server is having a hard time getting the linux kernel update: http://pastebin.com/PY089XdD can someone help me figure out what the problem is? [19:33] jhutchins: And we just use key-based auth. [19:33] jhutchins: Anyway, it'll do, we're not here to help people secure their systems to the put where they're enforcing SELinux policys. [19:34] xtriz: Remember that if the firewall is ON your server, all of the traffic still reaches your server and the kernel. [19:34] Yowl: I'm not sure, ask #gnome about nautilus [19:35] jhutchins, even those traffic that is blocked to reach my machine ? [19:36] xtriz: your machine is blocking it so it will reach your machine [19:37] iceroot, ok [19:37] xtriz: but will be dropped directly by the fw but that action is still on your server [19:37] Yowl: Create a .directory file with something like Icon=gdict in it. [19:37] iceroot, other than fail2ban what should i use to secure ssh implementation ? [19:37] xtriz: use keys [19:37] xtriz: The firewall can't block the traffic until it receives and processes it. [19:38] xtriz: I'd say disable root login, but I believe Ubuntu already does that [19:38] Is there a driver for the intel graphics from intel for 13.10? [19:39] reisio, hopefully it's not, by default PermitRootLogin is yes. it should not be yes by default. [19:39] xtriz: that's a lot of words to confirm something I already claimed :p [19:39] xtriz: just ssh-pub-key [19:39] is it possible to use openldap for authorization ? [19:40] Remember, ubuntu locks the root account by default, this should prevent root login via ssh. [19:40] xtriz: sure [19:40] jhutchins What do you mean by that? [19:40] xtriz: but that is not "more secure" then the local passwd [19:40] can I hibernate ubuntu? [19:40] systemfish: yup [19:40] jpedroza2k: directly inside the kernel, yes [19:40] jpedroza2k: Depends on the chipset. Some are having problems. [19:40] systemfish: depends on your machine I guess [19:41] I've only found the option to set it in sleeping mode [19:41] iceroot, then there must be some centralized authentication system for say ssh, samba, file server etc ? [19:41] jhutchins, iceroot , I am having problems, I just want to try another driver and see if I can get this working without a reinstall of 13.04 or Windows. [19:41] Yowl: If you want to set custom properties for how directories appear in a file browser, most of them honor the legacy .directory file in the root of that folder, which can describe things like custom icons and background images. [19:41] because.. when I put my lappy to sleep, and wakes it up again, the CPU-fan runs like crazy [19:41] xtriz: called "pam" [19:42] Yowl: I don't have a reference for the file format right now, sorry. [19:42] xtriz: pam is the default system for the auth and you can choose different backends like mysql, passwd, slapd and so on [19:42] jpedroza2k: Start by determining your chipset and pciid. [19:42] jhutchins: But I don't know things like that. I need instructions. And You haven't really given me enough key words to do a search [19:43] iceroot, good, so PAM can be used as centralized authentication system. [19:43] iceroot, PAM is more secure implemetation than openldap ? [19:43] xtriz: You are mixing up things. [19:44] LDAP may act as a backend store for PAM. [19:44] bekks, may be i am getting bit confused. [19:44] ok [19:44] need to read more about PAM now. [19:44] how do I stop the CPU-fan to spin like crazy when I wake ubuntu up from its sleep? [19:45] Yowl: Here, this is easier: http://askubuntu.com/questions/79110/how-can-i-assign-custom-icons-to-folders === GeekSquid1 is now known as GeekSquid [19:45] jhutchins, I am using the Intel 3rd gen 4000 graphics controller on the Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset [19:45] Blasted graphics were fine under 13.04, completely useless under 13.10. [19:46] jpedroza2k: What are "blasted graphics"? [19:46] systemfish: mmmh I'm afraid you just cannot [19:46] bekks, I was using 3 1080p displays under 13.04, under 13.10 I can only use 2 [19:46] bekks, this is my understanding is this correct -> PAM to use as centralize authorization and we can use back-end as mysql, slapd, passwd , openldap ? [19:47] xtriz: Thats wrong. [19:47] :( [19:47] xtriz: The central point is the backing store. PAM itself is used on each client individually. [19:47] freudenschein: it's a bug, right? [19:48] systemfish: or a bad implementation of the driver [19:48] bekks, ok [19:48] hi [19:48] how do I install oracle on ubuntu? [19:48] Hello everyone, does anyone knows how to activate the "hibernate" option on 13.10? [19:48] Is anyone else having issues with firefox html5/flash audio after upgrading to 13.10? [19:48] MadeAllUp: nope [19:49] I can't even find where the actual error is being logged. I just get "xrandr: Configure crtc 2 failed" [19:49] jhutchins: Ah thanks, this helps a bunch. But where are the images that represent said folder stored? In that folders metadata or what? === anonymous is now known as Guest37091 [19:50] I'm having "cannot access file /etc/asound.conf" and "snd_config_hook_load returned error: Permission denied", while flash works just fine with chrome. All other applications work fine using alsa. [19:50] Hi! I need the 32bit python libraries on my 64bit ubuntu installation.. so i tried "sudo apt-get install python2.7-minimal:i386" but apt threatens me to uninstall my whole system. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? [19:51] Yowl: This is the closest thing I could find to an explanation: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ It describes .desktop files but the .directory format is the same. I believe even Windows honors it. [19:52] hi as it seems i fucked up my remote ifconfig ... so i cant ssh it anymore ... i tried to change everything back to normal like auto eth0 address X netmask X gateway X where X is the ip i need but after restart i still cant get ping on that machine [19:52] do i need to set additional stuff somewhere ? [19:52] Yowl: For KDE and Gnome the information is stored in the .desktop file. As far as where the icon is, that's a little bit deeper than I've gone in the system, but if you go into somethng that lets you change an icon in the GUI, the .desktop will use the name, I don't know if it can use a path. [19:52] yo les gros [19:53] Yowl: That .desktop standard may say. === tvoss is now known as tvoss|eod [19:53] I think if you make a symlink on the Desktop, it makes a .desktop for you [19:53] ha do ken [19:53] sho ryu ken [19:53] jhutchins: And .desktop is stored in /home? [19:53] jpedroza2k: That seems to be a common complaint and may be a bug. [19:54] chibrator [19:54] jhutchins, is there a bug report for it? [19:54] Yowl: you can put a .desktop file just about anywhere [19:54] Guest37091: You need to re-start the interface for it to read the new info. [19:54] how do I see what ubuntu version I have? [19:55] systemfish: lsb_release -a [19:55] jpedroza2k: Dunno. [19:55] reisio: Where is it by default? And how does the OS know where to find it then? [19:55] Guest37091: also if your pinging a domain did you setup the dns in resolvconf? [19:56] jhutchins ... normally no problem but i have no monitor connected to the remote machine ... can i manually set the new configuration ? [19:56] Yowl: Try reading that document, I think it answers a lot of those questions. [19:56] just pinging the ip :) [19:56] Yowl: It's really up to the file browser how it will react to a .desktop or .directory file. [19:56] Hey guys! I just installed Ubuntu 13.10, and I'm wondering how I can install Mate. [19:56] jhutchins, I see a lot of issues with nvidia graphics, but not a lot with Intel. [19:56] Hi, im facing a problem i upgraded my OS from 13.04 to 13.10 and i faced the windows all have black lines at the edge and the one i open doesnt show me the name of it [19:57] LinuxNooobish, check to see if your drivers are installed and running properly, though that probbably isn't the problem. [19:57] jpedroza2k: They seem to be a fairly new problem, possibly just with 13.10 but also possibly with other releases of the same version of xorg. [19:57] jpedroza2k: Specifically I've seen two other complaints today about not being able to use a 3rd monitor. [19:58] * jhutchins checks his real job to see if something needs doing there... [19:58] everything is installed SWATLLAMA [19:58] Does anyone know how to put Mate on? [19:58] Hi ive got ubuntu instakled in eufi mode on a driv im now trying to boot from a uefi enabled laptop, bur ir doesnt seem to be recognzing it. Any suggestions [19:58] is there a way to load the /etc/network/interfaces "into the system" manually ? [19:58] Go into your BIOS and change the UEFI boot order, ndroftheline. [19:58] Guest37091: ifup/ifdown [19:58] jhutchins: I don't understand like 90% of http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ So if you would please just answer a few questions [19:59] even the terminal is all in black === thor___ is now known as Szadek [19:59] grimeton have no screen connected to the machine [19:59] Any way to put Mate on? [19:59] Guest37091: so how do you want to MANUALLY tell the machine todo it then? [19:59] Swatlana does the drive need to be connecteed directly to be detected in the uefi boot order? Its now showing up the. [19:59] jhutchins: If I use that method to change a folders icon to that of a image, where is the image stored? [20:00] I see instructions for 13.04, but not for 13.10 [20:00] ndroftheline: does it show up in the bios? [20:00] take the harddrive connect it to my machine and write it down somewhere i hope ! [20:00] jhutchins: Where is the .desktop created by default to tell the OS to show that image? [20:00] jhutchins, I have the intel guys in chat now, I will see if they can help me sort it. [20:00] was that meant to me SWATLLAMA to change the UEFI booting order ? [20:01] Hitsujitmo yes the bios detects it but doesnt catch that its a ootable drive [20:01] ah sorry wasnt me [20:01] Not you, LinuxNoobish [20:01] should I update to 13.10? Any drawback of updating? [20:01] But its connected via a usbcaddy maybe thats the problem? [20:01] Some people are having bugs, malinus. I am not. [20:01] bugs like?

I'm just curious if its my hardware or whats wrong [20:04] i just did a fresh install of 13.30, formatting everything except separately-partitioned /home - on purpose to correct a myriad of issues from experimenting with various DEs. but a bunch of my icons are still messed up - how can I reset even the unity tweaks persisting from the previous install?

A few updates for additional software, but nothing drastic. [20:08] odd [20:08] 12.04.3 installs 3.8 [20:08] aww ok [20:09] anyone know why steam isn't in the 13.10 repos? [20:09] Now I'm curious. Does upgrading from 13.04 -> 13.10 upgrade the Kernel as well? [20:09] Hey everyone. Little problem. I startet a system upgrade of my 12.10 to 13.04 in the terminal. On some point it asked me whether I wanted to keep my modified init.d/ondemand file or evaluate the file or open a terminal session for it. I chose to evaluate that. However, that session crashed somehow when I was about to close MC in it. And with that crash went my upgrade procedure. So I am afrait to shut down my system because I [20:09] upgrade. What can I do? [20:09] hitsujitmo yes thwts right its from a now broken system [20:09] jhutchins where does it make the .desktop or .directory file. in the first place? And how does it know where to look for them? [20:09] yes fish [20:09] fishscene: Yes, but you can still boot the old kernel. [20:10] kureno: steam is not supplied by ubuntu repos, download the installer from steampowered.com [20:10] kureno: perhaps it removed the PPA? [20:10] RobBurkeOne: have you tried re running the upgrade command [20:10] Yowl: I think that document says. .desktop files are valid in a number of different places, they're similar to a windows shortcut file. .directory files should be, as I said before, in the root of the directory they apply to. [20:10] Sounds good. Although I think I'll stick with the new kernel as long as VMtools and Virtualbox add-ons still work :) [20:11] here is the prtsrn [20:11] https://www.dropbox.com/s/ybjevxz1tskcorz/Screenshot%20from%202013-10-17%2023%3A05%3A20.png [20:11] How come there are package versions which do not follow the debian policy? [20:11] Yowl: That way whatever access that directory can use the .directory file, although it may interpret things like icon names uniquely.

[20:12] I'm trying to parse version fields but due to the discrepancy my regex is not working [20:12] ndroftheline: from what i understand of uefi (i could be wrong on this) but when you install a system, it sets a reference to it in the the uefi boot menu. since you did not install that on the current system there is no reference in the uefi. [20:12] volko: if there is a difference between debian and ubuntu packages, there is an addition of ubuntu [20:13] or maybe ~ubuntu [20:13] ChogyDan: Yeah, it said the process is locked [20:13] volko: Ubuntu's package manager is called dpkg, which is the same name that Debian's package manager has. Other things may be similar as well, but they are NOT the same thing. [20:13] Hitsujitmo ok yeah i figured it was somethng lke that. The uefi boot options are not detecting the reference. Im not even sure if its supposed to be able ro detect references in attached drives that were not installed directly. [20:13] ChogyDan: that's fine, that follows debian policy [20:13] jhutchins: Not sure what you mean by the root of the directory, but it is created and looked for in said directory, right? [20:13] ChogyDan: it's when there is no - [20:13] jhutchins: O_o [20:14] jhutchins: what exactly is the difference?

I'm just curious if its my hardware or whats wrong [20:14] volko: example? and also, a better place to ask is #ubuntu-motu or maybe #ubuntu-packaging [20:14] ChogyDan: debian packages are supposed to have a debian revision, which is the final portion after the last hyphen [20:14] Does anybody know in general how to manipulate the uefi boot references? My uefi isnt detecting a newly attached drive with a uefi install of ubuntu. [20:14] volko: ubuntu uses another package naming sheme. and even with PPAs that is no way like its on debian [20:14] ndroftheline: there is probably a tool that will fix this, but i'm not aware of any specific tool [20:14] Yowl: for /some/directory/somewhere/with/files/and/subdirectories, it will usually be honored for the directory it appears in, and sometimes for directories below that.

[21:07] Psil0Cybin: what is the exact commands you are running? [21:07] Well I want to show a text in the MoTD when a user in a specific group logs in [21:07] im usiing the Password and Keys [21:07] GUI [21:07] in Xubuntu [21:07] What is the best way to upgrade to 13.10 from 13.04, without doing a complete fresh install? [21:07] But in order to that I either need to get the groups directly or get the user's username [21:07] Somehow [21:07] marlinc, you could add that to the .profile in their home directory [21:08] I had installed Musique app but it does not have hardware integration. Is it fixable? [21:08] !hardware-integration [21:08] Well I'm ldap to handle the logins. So I can't add it to every single user's .profile [21:09] fucking fuck -_- why can't I install 13.10 from a fucking USB stick on UEFI system [21:09] Kalel: Can you provide more information as to what that means? [21:09] shvelo: Mind your language please. [21:09] i got it working [21:09] something was off [21:09] * shvelo is angry [21:09] now it works [21:10] Pici: Ok, the media buttons doesn't works with the Musique app, the simple music player. [21:10] Ah I found a system wide profile thingy [21:10] marlinc maybe add it to /etc/profile then? [21:10] Yea thats what I found [21:10] Thanks [21:11] can someone help me? I'm on Fedora and want to create a bootable Ubuntu USB stick [21:12] okay, Problem solved so far. Thanks gordonjcp and ChogyDan :) [21:12] <_Trullo> shvelo, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB [21:12] guys how come my ssh key says strength 4112 when i selected 4096 [21:12] clang++ cannot find iostream?? what's wrong?

[21:13] !upgrade [21:13] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [21:13] I think something is wrong with the image [21:14] shvelo: check the md5 [21:15] i got warnings (from zabbix) of too many processes...any idea how i can find what these are? top doesn't look strange except the total of 311 proccess [21:16] ah if i scroll down seems like i have lots of check-new-release [21:16] hitsujiTMO, md5 matches :/ === pasdfsdfg is now known as makimac1 [21:17] shvelo, where is the process going wrong? [21:17] is it just not booting the usb? [21:18] btrfs support in saucy? [21:18] hey guys anyone know i tried to make a SSH Key that is 4096 bit, but instead it says that it made 4112 bit [21:18] is that normal? [21:18] Am I supposed to have a clock in my top menu bar? It isn't there and "Time & Date > Clock" system settings are all greyed out. [21:19] chare: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/btrfs [21:19] Fresh install of 13.10 x64 [21:19] site doesn't say anything about saucy [21:19] Thanks hitsujiTMO [21:19] chare if its supported in earlier versions it will be supported in saucy [21:20] your welcome marlinc [21:20] thats what they always say until it ships with a bug... === makimac1 is now known as makimac- [21:20] chare: There is no bugfree software on this planet. [21:21] Psil0Cybin: i dont think so ... [21:21] hitsujiTMO, it doesn't get recognized as UEFI boot option, and says 'isolinux.bin not found or corrupted' on legacy boot [21:21] hi [21:21] RobBurkeOne: try it and see... [21:23] Psil0Cybin: can you not use the command lines tools to create your key? [21:23] trying to install oracle java using this method: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html but im getting "E: Unable to locate package oracle-java7-installer" [21:24] shvelo have you tried unetbootin? it seems to be the most effective method for most people under linux [21:25] LuxuryMode, after adding the PPA, did you perform " sudo apt-get update " ? [21:25] hitsujiTMO, yea tried unetbootin too, same [21:25] OerHeks yup [21:25] shvelo: have you tried another usb key, the one you are using may be faulty [21:25] no I didn't [21:25] OerHeksoh weird i actually didnt see that it also said "add-apt-repository: command not found" [21:25] OerHeks^ [21:26] LuxuryMode: have you run: sudo apt-get update [21:26] AMD Athlon(tm) II X3 445 Processor will work with 64-bit saucy? [21:26] btw I've noticed that the image uses MBR partition table [21:26] chare: yes. [21:26] and the EFI boot partition has bad superblock [21:26] LuxuryMode, what ubuntu version are you using ? [21:27] OerHeks, 12.04 [21:27] bekks: so which software do i want to use to burn the dvd of saucy [21:27] chare: Whichever you normally use to burn a dvd. [21:27] chare: are you on windows 7? [21:28] linux [21:28] OerHeks, looks likes i need this sudo apt-get install python-software-properties first? [21:28] Hi all :) Currently my server has shared over 33 iso files of each desktop-64 and desktop-32, as well as 10 amd64+mac :) Thank heaven for unlimited bandwidth :D [21:28] what dvd burning am i suppose to use on linux [21:28] chare: k3b. [21:28] LuxuryMode, i don't know, it is not mentioned in that ppa page. ask the owner of that ppa? [21:29] http://askubuntu.com/questions/38021/how-to-add-a-ppa-on-a-server [21:29] LuxuryMode, ah you solved your own issue, great [21:30] eh not quite [21:30] :( [21:30] LuxuryMode: if you installed a minimal system then python-software-properties is not installed which contains the command apt-add-repository [21:30] still doesnt seem to work [21:30] hitsujiTMO: is this the command i would use to make the key [21:30] ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 [21:30] ? [21:30] Psil0Cybin: Yep, that should work. [21:30] Psil0Cybin: yes [21:31] Psil0Cybin: The actual file may be larger as it contains things like the system ID. [21:31] buy guys [21:31] but guys when i go to the GUI and right click it and go to propertys [21:31] it stils says strength 4112 [21:31] :S [21:32] what is a command to view in the terminal what the strenth of a key is [21:32] im using the Passwords and keys GUI [21:32] you can see the Key right away as i made it in the terminal [21:32] luxurymode what is the output of: apt-add-repository ppa:webupd8team/java [21:33] when i right click it in Passwords and Keys: i get Algorithm: RSA Strength: 4112 location: /home/psil0/.ssh/pi and the fingerprint [21:33] what is saucy md5 checksum [21:33] i am so confused [21:33] why the GUI says strength 4112 but in the terminal i wrote 4096 [21:33] my personal email keys [21:33] Psil0Cybin: Which command did you use for creating the key? [21:33] Psil0Cybin: sounds like that GUI is off [21:33] say 4096 [21:33] but not the SSH Keys [21:34] i used ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 [21:34] when i right click on my email keys in Passwords & Keys i get 4096 but when i do SSH I see 4112 :S [21:34] Psil0Cybin: The ssh key is something different than your gpg key. [21:34] Psil0Cybin: ssh-keygen -l -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub - first number is keystrength. [21:35] so im confused [21:35] i did the wrong command [21:36] this was wrong? ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 ? [21:36] Psil0Cybin: Yes. [21:36] Psil0Cybin: If you want to generate a gpg key, use gpg [21:36] Psil0Cybin: THat generated a key. The command I showed lists the key info. [21:36] !checksum > chare [21:36] hi [21:36] chare, please see my private message [21:36] bekks: Um, no, I don't think that will work at all. [21:36] If I try to open a apt: link in Firefox and it doesn't open the Software Center and Firefox is asking Choose an Appplication? What do I give it???? [21:36] OKAY [21:36] bekks: Oh, sorry, yes [21:36] in the terminal it says 4096 [21:36] jhutchins: Yeah :) [21:36] in the Gui it said 4112 [21:36] see [21:37] Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:37] thats what i wanted to see [21:37] Psil0Cybin: Two different keys, for two different purposes. [21:37] Psil0Cybin: The key generated with ssh-keygen will never be used for encryption of emails. [21:37] no no no i am aware guys [21:37] im tryign to state that the GUI of the password and keys program in Xubuntu [21:38] Psil0Cybin: You are still mixing up ssh and gpg keys. [21:38] showed details of all KEYS in my email keys i stated that the strength was 4096 [21:38] but! [21:38] when iright clicked the SSH key and clicked details [21:38] it said strength 4112 [21:38] so i was scratching my head [21:38] Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:38] easy on the enter Psil0Cybin [21:38] Psil0Cybin: Use more commas and fewer CRs. [21:38] !enter > Psil0Cybin [21:38] Psil0Cybin, please see my private message [21:39] yea sorry just excited, just was confused why a terminal and gui would state different numbers, that is [21:39] was confused if maybe by it stating 4112 that it might be flawed or have a security issue in the GUI [21:39] but because the terminal confirmed it was 4096, i can rest easy and just suspect that the GUI has some issues [21:40] or perhaps does not know that SSH keys use 4096 these days [21:40] Psil0Cybin: The terminal confirmed that your SSH key is 4096 - it did not even touch yout gpg key. [21:40] Psil0Cybin: Told you three times now. :) [21:40] Is there a way to batch edit Smart Lens? [21:41] Er, in 13.10. [21:41] okay yea thanks sorry, yup when i ran ssh-keygen -l -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub it said 4096 [21:41] belkinsa: can you rephrase? [21:41] I'm trying to use the default desktop-sharing software on ubuntu 13.10. and connect to it (local network), with remmina remote desktop, using VNC protocol. Especially considering that it's very unsecure I'm amazed how slow it is. Anything I can do to make it faster? [21:42] Psil0Cybin: For the FOURTH time: your ssh key is something totally different then your gpg key. [21:42] malinus: if it's slow over local network, your local network is probably overly slow [21:42] bekks: Are you familiar with this GUI utility he's using? [21:42] You know the search results from the different sites, you can disable them one-by-one but is there a way to do it in one go? [21:42] jhutchins: Yeah, it doesnt use his ssh keys. [21:42] bekks: so what does that have to do with Encryption strength i am soooo confused...@ what your saying I know SSH keys and GPG keys are different, but they can BOTH be accessed through ONE gui. [21:43] reisio, nah it isn't. I'm doing the same thing with ubuntu (tightvnc) -> win7 (tightvnc), and it's very smooth and fast [21:43] bekks: I thought maybe it had the option to manage them. [21:43] it was that GUI that was showing different numbers that was confusing me [21:43] reisio, so I'm just trying to figure out which of the software I'm using here that is at fault. [21:43] malinus: probably your graphics, then [21:43] I was using the GUI only to Observe all the KEYS that i have on my computer and SSH Keys/ both different but can be accessed via ONE Gui named Password & Keys that comes Default and Standard with Xubuntu [21:43] reisio, my graphics? [21:43] Psil0Cybin: You ssh key is still 4096, while your gpg key is 4112. [21:43] nooooo [21:44] malinus: yup [21:44] it said my GPG Key was 4096, but stated my SSH Key was 4112 [21:44] reisio, what is "my graphics"? [21:44] thats why i was confused [21:44] malinus: the software driver for your graphics hardware [21:44] its just a manager [21:44] i dont use it to make the keys [21:44] just to look @ them [21:44] and hit details, if i get confused [21:44] Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:44] Psil0Cybin: Try to proceed without worrying about it at this point, it's a pretty trivial detail. If the GUI has a slightly longer key it should still work. Try it, use it to connect to a remote system, then see what the key looks like on that remote system. [21:45] Nevermind, found my answer. [21:45] reisio, it was on the same computer. So I'm guessing the host computers drivers from the kernal are just very bad? [21:45] Psil0Cybin: Don't get bogged down in the details at this stage, just go with the flow until something breaks. [21:45] how do i do it via the remote system? I connect just fine :) I just want to make sure my key is secure, and it isnt easy to break :P thats it im just worried if maybe the key was encrypted wrong or something, that lets it to be easy brute forced [21:45] or something [21:46] but yea you guys are calming me down im just parranoid about every little discrepency [21:46] malinus: you're comparing Ubuntu (1) to Windows 7 (2) and Ubuntu (1) to Ubuntu (3) ? [21:46] reisio, yes. [21:46] Psil0Cybin: Use keygen -l as before to list details of the public key that your system pushed to the remote. [21:46] !openssh [21:46] SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) [21:47] We should update that, putty is available on Linux for consistency these days. [21:47] The linux putty implementation is pretty bad. [21:47] it's a port [21:47] reisio, also, is it possible to make the vnc go over ssh? The "desktop sharing preferences", doesn't show that option. Is it possible to do it? [21:47] malinus: yes it is [21:48] jhutchins: found out yesterday that putty uses propritary keys :( these need to be converted for regular openssh use... sillyness. [21:48] malinus: Yes, you can tunnel VNC through ssh. [21:48] putty itself i find is pretty bad. I used to use it all the time and got annoyed at its key files [21:48] reisio, mind telling me how? The "desktop sharing preferences" options are very sparse. [21:48] malinus: Look up "vnc ssh tunneling" I can't remember the actual format [21:48] malinus: and 1 to 3 is the one you find slow? [21:48] zykotick9: It's the same keys, just held in a special container format [21:49] reisio, sorry for bothering you. Much of the slowness came with the fact that the ubuntu "desktop sharer" doesn't turn on the bakcgroud. [21:49] The guys at Intel had me download a custom kernel from their git repo. Hos do I build a kernel like that on 13.10? [21:49] How... [21:49] malinus: so... solved, or? [21:50] jpedroza2k: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile [21:50] reisio, yeah, now I just need someone one 13.10 to check if this is how their options looks like: http://www.techotopia.com/images/1/12/Ubuntu_advanced_remote_desktop_preferences2.jpg [21:50] because mine doesn't :/ [21:50] malinus: you don't have a 'require encryption' bit? [21:51] reisio, I'm missing a lot of those options. including "require encryption", yes. 13.10 [21:51] k [21:51] is ubuntu-upstart the thing that lets you start/stop apache via "sudo service start/stop" ? [21:51] malinus: Have you just upgraded? [21:51] malinus: I don't have 13.10 handy [21:51] frodopwns: Yes [21:51] ty [21:51] Rory, yes [21:51] malinus: I believe most of the over ssh aspect is done from the client side, also [21:51] malinus: Perhaps reboot? [21:51] !upstart | frodopwns [21:51] frodopwns: 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/ [21:51] I can say that I'd recommend tigervnc over others, though ;) [21:51] Rory, well it just looks like the menu have been changed [21:52] and there are some "rdp" implementations you might look into in the future [21:52] im hoping to tie a python app to the upstart system [21:52] xrdp, and wayland is supposed to support a form of rdp, too [21:53] reisio, it's not in the repository of ubuntu :( [21:53] what is wayland? haven't been very active in the linux universe for quite some time [21:53] Rory, also I'be obviously restarted after upgrading [21:53] frodopwns: id check out that 'upstart cookbook' web site - it has the best docs on it ive seen. [21:53] malinus: 's'okay, I recommend it over tightvnc, but it's not amazingly superior [21:53] kureno: a replacement for 'X' [21:54] kureno: wayland will replace X soon [21:54] reisio, what do you use for server-side? also the tigervnc? [21:54] frodopwns: all info you need to write your own upstart config is in the cookbook http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/ don't be afraid to look at the existing upstart configs in your system as examples [21:54] k thanks guys i will chekcout the cookbook [21:55] you guys were much more helpful than #python :-) [21:55] hello, I have just installed 13.10 (lubuntu variant) on my new laptop, and got it working after adding nomodeset to grub; however, once through the whole install process, now it only wants to boot in tty1-6, and doing ctrl-alt-F7 only gives me a blinking cursor... [21:55] malinus: I use tigervnc, usually just to connect to already running X sessions [21:55] malinus: and not usually over ssh, because I only VNC locally [21:55] but I did try over ssh, it's a simple change to the _client_ side command, IIRC === ultimateboy1 is now known as ultimateboy [21:55] reisio, but even locally, all the data isn't encrypted. Your root password etc. would be send unencrypted. [21:56] zethomas what graphics chepset(s) do you have [21:56] and if my local network were compromised, that would be a problem [21:57] reisio, if I understand correctly, it doesn't have to be. You can just scramble the data from the air. [21:57] at least everything not encrypted [21:57] malinus: hrmm?

[22:20] Fresh install [22:21] zeifer: what graphics card do you have and what ubuntu version are you running on? [22:21] I believe I'm on 12.04 at the moment. The integrated card is an RS880M or HD4250. [22:21] hali [22:21] I've installed 19 times === aaass is now known as aaas [22:22] zeifer: in terminal run lsb_release -a [22:22] it should tell you what ubuntu version... [22:22] is this a laptop or desktop? [22:22] laptop [22:22] One sec on the terminal command. [22:22] anyone running gnome-flashback session? [22:23] Okay, it's 13.04 I'm running. [22:23] !anyone > vanishing [22:23] vanishing, please see my private message [22:23] Will the 3.11 kernel be available in previous versions of ubuntu now that 13.10 is out? [22:23] How should I ask a question that it will be answered? [22:23] !precise [22:23] Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is the current !LTS release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1204 [22:23] nemtom: You never know wether a question will be answered. [22:23] !raring [22:23] Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) was the 18th release of Ubuntu, Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.04/ - Release notes: http://ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/13.04 [22:23] baggar11: if it's available anywhere, it's available [22:24] bekks: thanks. good to know [22:24] reisio: I'm wondering about ubuntu repo's [22:24] best upgrade yet [22:24] reisio: I know it can be downloaded already [22:25] baggar11: what's the current kernel of 12.04? [22:25] 3.8? [22:25] Ari-Yang: 3.8 [22:25] baggar11: 12.04.3? [22:25] yep [22:25] baggar11: if there is a 12.04.4, chances are it will be 3.10 or 3.11 [22:25] emmeg mi [22:25] baggar11: why do you ask? [22:26] zeifer: do you get results when you run apt-cache search fglrx ? [22:26] Ari-Yang: I just recently learned that canonical backported kernels from newer versions. [22:26] !mainline | Ari-Yang [22:26] Ari-Yang: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [22:26] Ari-Yang: so I was just wondering if that was still going to be the case with the 13.10 kernel. available for previous releases... [22:26] baggar11: well you could wait/hope they will or just get mainline [22:26] why the heck mouse move causes 100% cpu usage????? [22:27] Ari-Yang: just wanted to see if gnome-flashback sessions are still being used by people [22:27] baggar11: I'm using mainline myself, and running 12.10 [22:27] Akaigo-Arc 3.11.4-031104-generic x86_64 Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Codename: quantal [22:27] Yeah, fglrx as well as amdcccle. These were tried on linux mint before I went to try Xubuntu. [22:27] They didn't work or caused the system to freeze at boot. [22:27] Ari-Yang: I guess I'll wait. Thanks. [22:28] zeifer: yeah I figured... that's fglrx for you.... I could help you setup your laptop so it has better performance in gaming... but that requires you to update your kernel and mesa [22:28] baggar11: if you don't want to wait you can install latest 3.11 here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11.5-saucy/ [22:28] it's latest stable [22:29] not sure if pf-kernel can be recommended here [22:29] Ari-Yang: thanks, I've seen that. I'm mainly asking for my servers, so maybe I asked in the wrong channel. :) [22:29] but if you really want, you can :D [22:30] Ari-Yang, that would not require me to upgrade to 13.10, right? [22:30] I'm just assuming that 13.10 has released already since it's October. [22:30] Hey ubuntu 13.10 consumes all CPU when moving mouse! Don't upgrade!!! [22:31] Thanks for the tip. :) [22:31] karab44: that's your problem...not everyone else has that problem [22:31] :/ [22:31] zeifer: upgrading the kernel and mesa won't upgrade you to 13.10 [22:31] Ari-Yang: that's not my problem [22:31] karab44: better research what the problem is instead of that FUD [22:31] that's UBUNTU PROBLEMN [22:31] I'm just operating on limited bandwidth, so I wanted to make sure. Thank you Ari-Yang. [22:32] karab44: I don't have that problem, so it must be on your end [22:32] karab44: no problems of that sort here. [22:32] yeah, my i7 is probably insane === sam113101 is now known as sam113101_afk [22:32] karab44: yea probably [22:32] one of cores get's 100% busy when moving mouse [22:33] that's totally wrong [22:33] how so [22:33] I understand that now everybody needs performance but I do [22:33] Good afternoon [22:33] not* [22:34] vanishing: thank you :) [22:34] I tried 13.10 with multiple machines, but I didn't get that problem yet [22:34] karab44: did you check system monitor to see what's eating up your memory? [22:34] Ari-Yang, can the kernel and mesa be upgraded via apt command-line? If so, do I also need a new repo? Better yet, is there a website I can use to follow step-by-step instructions? [22:34] I'm having a somewhat serious problem, and I was wondering whether this is the right place to ask about it [22:34] open up system monitor/top/htop [22:34] DenSaakalte: It probably is, if it involves Ubuntu [22:34] !details | DenSaakalte [22:34] DenSaakalte: 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 ..." [22:34] Ari-Yang: I said clear [22:34] see which process is consuming all those cpu power [22:34] zeifer: are you running on 64bit or 32bit [22:34] DenSaakalte, ask, yes. Though we can't guarantee you a solution. [22:35] karab44: sorry I dunno [22:35] it happens when moving my mouse ONLY [22:35] 32-bit due to having less than 4Gb of RAM. [22:35] karab44: see what is causing that cpu load with htop/top or system monitor [22:35] karab44: yes, open up system monitor/top/htop, and start moving your mouse [22:35] xorg [22:36] karab44: your issue is not a known problem so we need to do some research. you can look into .xsession-errors in home and syslog in /var/log/ too [22:36] Alright, this is how it goes: I had Ubuntu 13.04 until a few hours ago, which I updated using the Software Updater app (I have it installed in a distro designed for Chromebooks if that helps, although I didn't have problems until now). Turns out halfway during the installation, I had a crash, so I restart the laptop and execute the upgrade via sudo apt-get upgrade... [22:36] hmmm I found first notices since 2010 [22:36] the update manager on 13.04 to upgrade to 13.10 keeps crashing [22:37] ahh ha. Glad i came in here lol [22:37] do-release-upgr[7111]: segfault at 8 ip 00007f65cf63e82f sp 00007ffff28be160 error 4 in libGL.so.304.88[7f65cf59e000+ca000] [22:37] After that, I restarted and a lot of problems started ocurring: "Error: incorrect padding", then "your system is running in low resource graphics", etc [22:37] * wethu will hold off on updating to 13.10 [22:37] And now it takes at least 2 or 3 minutes to boot into Ubuntu, when it used to take 30 seconds tops [22:37] Also, very, very laggy. Not sure what it could be [22:38] karab44: now you know that piece of information, I would google "xorg high cpu usage move mouse" [22:38] :D [22:38] you want me to fix xorg? [22:38] DenSaakalte: you said: "I have it installed in a distro designed for Chromebooks" , what exactly do you mean by that? [22:38] karab44: seems like it happened since 2010, so not a saucy problem [22:39] I'm having a weird bug in Ubuntu Raring. The graphics output on my external monitors freezes for a short while every minute when my laptop lid is closed, but not otherwise. Anyone knows if this is a well-known bug with a solution? [22:39] vanishing: don't be an ignorant. It's a problem of all releases [22:39] ChrUbuntu, hitsujiTMO [22:39] known and ignored. [22:39] !attitude | karab44 [22:39] karab44: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [22:39] karab44: stop that! [22:39] what [22:39] karab44: yea, I am not ignorant, you are. You yelled "< karab44> Hey ubuntu 13.10 consumes all CPU when moving mouse! Don't upgrade!!! [22:40] because it's true :) [22:40] It's basically the same as regular Ubuntu except it's designed to work in a Chromebook, not sure if it's part of the problem since I had 13.04 without problems installed here [22:40] its not [22:40] karab44: if you just want to rant and flame in here stop it. if you wnat to to solve the issue you get help in here [22:40] yes it is [22:40] The quick fix for my issue seems to be to put something between the laptop and lid, so it doesn't change the power mode [22:40] ubuntu 13.10 does not consume all COU when moving, and it happens whether you upgrade to 13.10 or not [22:41] zeifer: follow these instructions I just typed out for you http://paste.opensuse.org/view/raw/22968366 [22:41] Thank you, Ari-Yang, I'll look at it now. [22:41] DenSaakalte: chrubuntu is not supported here, we have no way of knowing what was changed ... the updater probably broke some of the customisations in that distro [22:41] Also, I changed the power settings so the laptop turns off the screen instead of hibernating, so it's not a hibernating issue [22:41] so.. friendly question, will upgrading from 13.04 - 13.10 be a painless experience, or will I need to spend a couple hours fixing things? [22:42] Is there a way to see current processor frequency other than grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo ? I don't think it's giving me correct values. [22:42] zeifer: this is what my /etc/default/grub looks like if you just want to copy and replace it with the one yours has http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=uHAJnHxH [22:42] Maybe it did, but assuming that isn't the case, should I post you the Xorg log? I feel it has something to do with it, hitsujiTMO [22:42] wethu: it went all fine here on several different machines. but there is no guarantee of course [22:42] zeifer: what card do you have again? [22:43] k1l, Fair enough.. I don't mind the hassle normally, but I use the machine for development, and if i need to spend time fixing it then i might just wait until i have more free time to deal with any issues [22:43] HD 4250 integrated. RS880M is the other identifier. [22:44] wethu: hmm, maybe try it on another machine first, so your development box can stay operational, while you know if you can upgrade hassle free :) [22:44] wethu: in that case i would make a full backup for easy rollback or wait untill that sparetime is there for the possible needed rescue [22:44] or ^ [22:44] Yep, great advice, thanks guys :) [22:45] Mace268: see cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state [22:45] hey guys, for some reason my ubuntu server is having a hard time getting the linux kernel update: http://pastebin.com/PY089XdD can someone help me figure out what the problem is? [22:45] Congrats everyone on 13.10! [22:47] Assimilater: whats the output of: df -h [22:47] k1l, there is no cpufreq under /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/ [22:47] hmm [22:47] hitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.com/iAD3xZx0 [22:47] Mace268: there is a cpu frequency monitor applet, but I'm not sure which method it uses to gather frequency information [22:48] Assimilater: remove old kernels [22:48] I'm trying to make sure my turbo frequency is working [22:48] Assimilater: you /boot is full, purge some of the old kernels [22:48] Assimilater: remove the "linux-image...." packages of that old kernels. [22:49] Assimilater: this line seems important "gzip: stdout: No space left on device" [22:49] zeifer: just in case... after following all of those steps and before rebooting... download this http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/R600_rlc.bin and move it to /lib/firmware/radeon [22:49] does linux support the i7 turbo settings or just the base frequency? [22:49] Mace268: it supports turbo [22:49] vanishing: I wasn't sure what to make of that because i have 10 GB on this HD and it's mostly free [22:50] Assimilater: your /boot is using a seperate partition and that's full :) [22:50] what happens if i reinstall ubuntu on the old ubuntu partition by using the advanced options during installation, can I just select the old partition or do I need to format that partition to get a true clean reinstall [22:50] hitsujiTMO: k1l: google found me this answer does it seem right? sudo apt-get purge $( dpkg --list | grep -P -o "linux-image-\d\S+" | grep -v $(uname -r | grep -P -o ".+\d") ) [22:50] no! [22:50] Assimilater: well..your df shows [22:50] /dev/sda1 228M 226M 0 100% /boot [22:50] سمَـَّوُوُحخ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ امارتيخ ̷̴̐خ [22:50] love it [22:50] Assimilater: i prefer the manual way [22:51] you do not want delete your current kernel [22:51] That's naught cw [22:51] naughty* [22:51] vanishing: now I understand what that means :) [22:52] vanishing, I tried with speed step on and off and everything still says it's not going into turbo. any other ideas on how to verify this? [22:52] what is the channel for ubu touch please? [22:53] k1l: manual meaning? (I have a guess but want to make sure) deleting every directory in /boot except those with the highest version number? [22:53] ubuntu-touch [22:53] moppy: #ubuntu-touch [22:53] Assimilater: whats is the output of: uname -r and: dpkg --get-selections | grep "linux-image" [22:53] Mace268: ‡ grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo [22:53] cpu MHz : 2501.000 [22:53] :D [22:53] Assimilater: no. remove the single packages that include tha old kernels [22:53] kureno: ty [22:53] Assimilater: remove the "linux-image...." packages of that old kernels. [22:54] Wubi is still not supported for 13.04 and later, right? [22:54] hitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.com/j4023ZHd [22:54] vanishing, that always says 3400.100 no matter what, even under a full 8 thread prime95 load [22:54] Assimilater: check uname -a first, make sure you DON'T remove the one showing in it [22:54] it should jump to 3800 under load [22:55] zeifer: oh and make sure you arne't using any proprietary drivers.... like wifi proprietary driver. you can check software-sources and go to the 'Additional Drivers' tab and if you see 0 proprietary drivers in use then you're good to go [22:56] hey guys, what's up [22:56] Assimilater: sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.5.0-23-generic linux-image-3.5.0-27-generic linux-image-3.5.0-28-generic linux-image-3.5.0-30-generic linux-image-3.5.0-31-generic linux-image-3.5.0-32-generic linux-image-3.5.0-34-generic [22:56] Mace268: The frequency shown in /proc/cpuinfo is often capped at the "normal" CPU speed when in fact turbo boost is working fine. [22:57] hitsujiTMO: ah, I see, thanks [22:57] vanishing, I just came upon i7z, i'll give that a try [22:57] thanks for your help [22:57] So I noticed two things after updating to 13.10: first of all, my Intel Graphics card now shows up in the About section as «Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.3, 128 bits)», and the Disk now says 0 bytes. This wasn't like that before installing it and I'm sure it's what's causing my lag problem. How could I fix it? [22:57] !paste cm-t [22:58] np [22:58] Greetings all. I need to connect my printer to the ethernet port on the back of my computer. Its a Brother DCP-7065DN. Anyone have info on that [22:59] Ari-Yang, It took me a bit to find it, but software sources tells me 0 proprietary drivers are in use. [22:59] Mace268: also you can check powertop [22:59] zeifer: nice [22:59] zeifer: let me know before you reboot after following those instructions [22:59] Mace268: should be in repo, and its pretty straight forward [22:59] ok thanks i'll try that [23:00] Hi, I am trying to open gnome-control-center on the activity-log-manager subpanel, it is working.

Here is my libvirt.log http://pastebin.com/EfpxKaLr [23:25] you need to install support for it, theres a link to a ppa for it [23:25] sorry, that was for compdoc [23:25] compdoc: My Ubuntu kvm guest is stuck at Boot from (hd0,0) ext4 - Starting up ... It ran fine for months. Here is my libvirt.log http://pastebin.com/EfpxKaLr [23:25] hitsujiTMO, ok- thanks. i see it now. Im use to being told that ZFS isnt supported, . [23:25] Ari-Yang: sorry to annoy ya just getting the pressure and flood off the ubuntu servers at least trying [23:25] k [23:26] subcool: OpenZFS changes that [23:27] can anyone recommend a really study/solid thumb drive that I can install linux to to use as a full blown os (not live os) [23:27] Ari-Yang, launchpad.net is failing to update. Any possible errors in the URL? [23:27] Wug: hit + + T and run gnome-control-center [23:28] SunTsu, is OpenZFS the same as ubuntu zfs? [23:28] Anyone upgrade to 13.10? I got trouble with unity hiding, I have intel videocard, and got this http://imgur.com/BwkGvqL when unity hide. [23:28] zeifer: what do you mean? and copy and paste the exact command you typed out to add the ppa [23:28] Stanley00, yes, and i downgraded back to 12.04 [23:28] chsados: just look for something with a decent brandname and decent read/write speeds [23:29] ok [23:29] Ok- witht hat in hand, (thank you guys), after mounting this "drive" will i still be able to do a data recovery? [23:29] hitsujiTMO: disabled web search, no change. no results ever display, no disk activity [23:29] he's dead jim. [23:29] zeifer: just hit the up arrow key, that should show you the latest command you ran in the terminal... [23:29] wug: maybe report the bug [23:29] dubone, is the vm's file stored in: /sys/fs/cgroup/devices/libvirt/qemu/zooapps [23:30] subcool: OpenZFS is a project that merges all current ZFS development branches - ZFS on Linux, FreeBSD, Ilumos/OpenSolaris and such [23:31] compdoc: pasted private ls -al /sys/fs/cgroup/devices/libvirt/qemu/zooapps [23:31] I am going to try removing and reinstalling all unity packages [23:31] chsados: lookup corsair voyager gt or gs range for an example [23:32] sudo apt-add-repository https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/graphics-drivers/ [23:32] subcool: those package slook like they are pre-OpenZFS, though [23:32] wug use install --reinstall [23:33] hitsujiTMO: im thinking maybe a sd card would be more reliable with a usb adapter like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820283018 [23:33] Ari-Yang, sudo apt-add-repository https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/graphics-drivers/ is what I used and had fail. [23:34] zeifer: actually go to the link and get the ppa address.... which would be ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers so sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers === sam113101 is now known as sam113101_afk [23:34] zeifer: run sudo apt-add-repository --remove https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/graphics-drivers/ [23:34] then run the command I just said: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers [23:34] then after run apt-get update and move on with the instructions, zeifer [23:35] chsados: your not going to get the same write speeds. also sd isn't suitable for large amounts of read/writes like you get with an os. i also recommend adding noatime flag to the partitions when you're seeting them up [23:36] hmm ok [23:36] Ari-Yang, thank you for clarifying that line. It worked this time. [23:36] kk [23:36] can some one tell me why when I do ipcs I get a long list of memory segments despite not having anything running in code? [23:38] they are all keyless so I am assuming they are OS related [23:38] I have to wait on the dist-upgrade command while a couple buddies are in an LoL match. [23:38] but my server doesnt have them so Im confused [23:39] Anyone have an idea how I can connect my printer to my computer via ethernet [23:41] vap1: is i a network-printer? [23:41] *is it [23:41] malinux: yea only thru ethernet. [23:41] vap1: then I think you can connect it directly to a router or a network hub? [23:42] Malinux: yea I can do that, but the router is not near me. I have a job I need to do that requires my printer/scanner to be near my computer. [23:42] SunTsu, i just followed openzfs, and it brought me back around to this ubuntu-zfs [23:42] vap1: Unless you have a print server to manage security, I don't recommend opening up ports on your router to forward to your printer. [23:43] subcool: yeah, zfs on linux is what later will get to be part of OpenZFS [23:43] vap1: okey. I don't know then [23:43] fishscene: I want to connect it to the ethernet port on my computer..not through the router [23:43] SunTsu, ? what? - No i googled openzfs - and while following the links on the page to install it- it brought me to ubuntu-zfs [23:44] SunTsu, i have to reboot, brb [23:44] ah-sorry. I've been staring at my screen too long. I read it as "internet", not Ethernet. === spiderman is now known as rocketeer [23:44] what is the ubuntu equivilant os OS X's FileVault? [23:45] vap1: just connect it, if it is GigE it should do AutoMDI, run a dhcpd on the nic and there you go [23:45] vap1: You'll need to use a crossover cable to connect it directly to your computer's ethernet port. And then you'll want to print out a diagnostics page to see the IP address it has. Then you can connect to it like any other network printer. [23:45] SunTsu, still installing updates, so if there is anything else you would like to add [23:45] vap1: if it's not GigE then you need a cross cable to connect it, the rest stays the same [23:46] subcool: http://open-zfs.org/wiki/Distributions#ZFS_on_Linux [23:46] alright. how can I tell if my ethernet cable is a crossover or not [23:46] vap1: look at the plugs, if the colors are in the same order it's not [23:47] Hold the cable-ends together upside-down right next to each other. If they don't match, it's a crossover. [23:47] vap1: if the colors are in a different order chances are it's crossover [23:47] SunTsu, right, which brings you to zfsonline.org, when you lcick the ubuntu link it brings you to the ubuntu-zfs [23:48] Anyone running 13.10 here (kinda poinless question.) [23:48] no [23:48] subcool: as I said: zfs on linux is going to be part of OpenZFS in the near future [23:48] !anyone < mdkwlan [23:48] hitsujiTMO: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) === sam113101_afk is now known as sam113101 [23:48] !anyone | mdkwlan [23:48] mdkwlan: 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. [23:48] Didn't think you were anyway [23:49] MY bad. [23:49] Your bad with what? [23:49] Wanted to update anyone that might be having an issue with three monitors on a Lenovo laptop. I had to compile the nightly build from Intel to get three monitors working again. [23:49] The kernel that is. [23:50] I'm having a problem coming out of the lock screen. When I log back in unity command window is open. Anyone else having this happen. [23:50] You are having a problem coming out of the closet? [23:50] Clearly [23:50] hi [23:51] hi guys [23:51] hi [23:51] anyone saavy with setfacl willing to help me? Thanks [23:51] What do people do for disk encryption on Ubuntu? [23:51] no [23:51] I've just upgraded to 13.10 and, surprisingly, everything has worked... more or less. [23:51] good for you homophobic [23:51] ADP4U well, not really setfacl, just permissions in general [23:51] the one issue I have, I cannot figure out how to resolve [23:52] ADP4U, not that there's anything wrong with that but ... codephobic. [23:52] I upgraded to 13.10 and, surprisingly, it's buggier than 13.04 [23:52] the problem I'm having is that apache2 no longer seems to recognise any of my virtualhosts [23:52] can someone direct me to a howto on how to use a keyboard? [23:53] sam113101: are you having any problems with the lock screen? [23:53] mdkwlan: let me try [23:53] enough ADP4U [23:53] ok [23:53] well… [23:54] don't leave [23:54] if you want an answer [23:54] ;_; [23:54] mdkwlan: it's a bit slow but it works as expected [23:54] hey codephobic, I can help with Apache [23:54] . [23:54] I get this weird error when I come back in that the unity is open. [23:54] hi fedeisas, thanks would appreciate some help [23:55] tell e [23:55] Good Evening all, just wondering if any has tackled openfire certificate imports ?? [23:55] my virtualhost configs were working fine in 13.04 and work fine in debian and 12.04 LTS Server. [23:56] not sure what's changed in the upgrade, that would affect this. [23:56] mysql is working, php is working, but apache keeps serving the default page, rather than any of the virtualhost sites I configured for this machine. [23:57] how do I make the caps lock key act as a second backspace key? [23:57] mmm [23:57] there could be many things [23:57] go to /var/logs/apache2/ [23:58] and tail -f access.log and error.log [23:58] hit refresh and try to see if there are some errors [23:58] any thoughts on on you need to provide Certificate Authority Reply ? is cer, pfx , csr and key file don't work hmmm? [23:58] ok, will check now [23:59] codephobic: have you strayed much from the default config od apache2? do you use /etc/apache2/sites-available ?
