| wilee-nilee | dingle, boot a live cd/usb and see if it works. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| dingle | wilee-nilee: it works, i also have a dual system, when i boot from windows the sound card works | 00:01 |

| bjrohan | I need help with displays. I am usin Kubuntu, but I am not able to get a resolution in there . . yet. | 00:02 |
| clayton_ | k1l: it's a geforce gtx 460. kernel-headers: I'm not sure. This is basically one of the first things I did after installing it. How can I check? log: anything I should look for in particular? | 00:03 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dingle: does it work from a UBUNTU live cd? | 00:03 |
| dingle | Dr_Willis_: yes | 00:04 |
| bjrohan | On my laptop all was working fine until I updated to 13.10. All was fine until I connected my HDMI to my TV. When disconnecting it, my laptop screen now goes blank, even after a rboot and logging into my degault account. logging into the guest account it all works fine | 00:04 |
| Dr_Willis_ | 'yes it does work from a ubuntu live cd' or 'no it does not work from a ubuntu live cd' :) the fact it works in windows. shows you at least got the speakers hooked up. ;) | 00:04 |
| k1l | clayton_: i got to leave now. but you can pastebin the apt log and the syslog from /var/log so supporters can have a look. good luck | 00:04 |
| Dr_Willis_ | The fact it does work from a live cd is a good sign at least. | 00:04 |
| dingle | Dr_Willis_: yes it works from a ubuntu live cd | 00:04 |
| clayton_ | k1l: sure thing. thanks. | 00:04 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dingle: done a 'sudo apt-get update' 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' on the installed system yet? | 00:04 |
| dingle | Dr_Willis_: yes, the sound card was working until few days ago | 00:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | so it was working on a new install, then some updates or somnthing a day or 3 ago caused sound to stop working.. | 00:05 |
| wilee-nilee | dingle, Good, how fresh is this install, and how much twerking, lol, have you done? | 00:05 |
| wilee-nilee | any 3rd party repos...etc? | 00:07 |
| nico_ | cvxc | 00:07 |
| dingle | wilee-nilee: i think the system is up to date, and A LOT | 00:07 |
| wilee-nilee | dingle, a lot of 3rd parties, say ppa's? | 00:08 |
| dingle | wilee-nilee: no | 00:08 |
| bjrohan | Dr_Willis_: You are an expert :-) Do you know where I may go to find the config file for display settings, multiple displays, and the HDMI out? | 00:08 |
| wilee-nilee | dingle, what does a lot mean in this context? | 00:08 |
| dingle | wilee-nilee: ive removing and adding drivers for four days, following every tip i could find online on how to solve this | 00:09 |
| dingle | wilee-nilee: does this help http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=323f6e5b02fd2da8ff9478b71a28be87484c925e ? | 00:10 |
| wilee-nilee | dingle, Ah, following tips on line, that can be a bane of bricking if you do not keep a record, and know how to reverse these changes or at least have a backup/clone of the working setup. I would just start over if it were me, and be more careful, trying to fix what you do not know is broke is a frustration that will give you more trouble than it's worth. | 00:11 |
| === Raptor is now known as SlaveBSD | ||
| dingle | wilee-nilee: i agree but i've been trying to avoid starting over because i don't have the time to set everything back the way i want | 00:13 |
| wilee-nilee | dingle, All I can say is if you do it enough and know some tricks like saving app install listas repos and keys, and configs...ect that goes really fast, I cvan install and have the same setup in less time than you have been on this channel today. | 00:14 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bjrohan: for my nvidia systems - its in xorg.conf. each user also has their own config in their home | 00:15 |

| Patero-ng | cvtsx: yo? | 00:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bjrohan: xorg.conf is options. there is some monitors/display setting file in the users home that they save to when they use the monitors/display settings tool | 00:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bjrohan: intel drivers are built in, so are rarely needed to be messed with | 00:24 |
| bjrohan | Hmm, yeah. I didn't have this problem until the 13.10 uprade, perhaps go back to an older kernel and see? | 00:25 |
| Patero-ng | danfo: 2013 and soon 2014 | 00:25 |
| danfo | :D | 00:25 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ive seen 3000+ people in here on release day. ;) but i tend to avoid the channel for the first few days after release | 00:26 |
| bjrohan | Dr_Willis_: Looks like when I plugged in the HDMI it triggered some setting in my regular account, b/c logging into a guest account everything is fine (I have not plugged the guest account into my TV to see what happens) | 00:26 |

| fossterer | hi! I deleted my only primary partition... How can I reclaim a part of it to another Extended partition? | 00:26 |
| XLV | fossterer if you havent written over it, you can recover it whole | 00:28 |
| odium | how can I keep firefox's flash stay in fullscreen mode on my other monitor? | 00:28 |
| fossterer | XLV: I'm asking if it is possible to shrink it and use the leftover space into an existing extended partition | 00:29 |
| odium | :( | 00:30 |
| wilee-nilee | fossterer, Can you take a screenshot of gparted looking at it and imagebin it? | 00:32 |
| XLV | fossterer yes, you can..use gparted | 00:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bjrohan: there may be some .file in the users home that has some monitor settings saved. for my nvidia system its .nvidia-settings-rc i dont have an intel system here to look at | 00:33 |
| Dr_Willis_ | odium: the webupd8 or omgubuntu blog site had tweaks for that exact issue. | 00:33 |
| wilee-nilee | !screenshot | fossterer | 00:33 |
| ubottu | fossterer: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. | 00:33 |
| XLV | fossterer if its root partition.. the easy way is to download a live cd like clonezilla | 00:33 |
| XLV | fossterer another option is systemrescuecd, i have used that one, uses gui | 00:34 |
| Swabby | I'm wanting to network install linux on a old dell that has no cdrom and no usb boot capability.. is there an easy way to do this? | 00:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Patero-ng: i ment on the day of almost every relase (every 6 mo) ive seen 3000 people here. havent paid much attention to it the last few reelases. | 00:35 |
| Swabby | i have a dual boot win 7 / ubuntu machine. | 00:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Swabby: might be easier to pull the hd. - use a usb enclosuer. install to it.. put it back | 00:35 |
| wilee-nilee | Swabby, are you sure it can even run ubuntu? | 00:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | are you sure it can even do a net boot. ;) | 00:36 |
| wilee-nilee | yeah goota be a no pae's here | 00:36 |
| Swabby | wilee - LOL i'm not sure...it's a latitude C610..google says people have run ubuntu on it with success. | 00:36 |
| wilee-nilee | gotta* | 00:36 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Swabby: how old of a release of ubuntu.. newer ubuntu releases need a PAE enabled CPU | 00:36 |
| wilee-nilee | Swabby, There are minimal requirements I would check those, might be an okay server. | 00:37 |
| Swabby | drwillis - Honestly i need something minimal...i was going to give the machine to my daughter to play some games and use abcmouse.com | 00:37 |
| fossterer | XLV: wilee-nilee: http://imagebin.org/274877 | 00:37 |
| fossterer | I am aiming for 4 partitions of 120 GiB each but sda5 and sda6 have important data | 00:37 |
| wilee-nilee | fossterer, Having the partitions out of numerical order looking at the image from left to right creates problems. | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | in making new partitions in general, I would back up those important ones and start over. | 00:39 |
| === sam113101 is now known as sam113101_afk | ||
| === jalcine is now known as jalcine_ | ||
| wilee-nilee | never delete a partition in general just rebuild it to keep the numerical order, or know that they change when you do. | 00:40 |
| fossterer | wilee-nilee: Is there something you want me to do about numerical ordering? | 00:41 |
| wilee-nilee | fossterer, I don;t the partitioner does. | 00:41 |
| === sam113101_afk is now known as sam113101 | ||
| fossterer | wilee-nilee: What to do? | 00:41 |
| === sam113101 is now known as whita | ||
| wilee-nilee | fossterer, I saw a user on here once who found a way to change the numbers, I don't know how myself, but in order for gparted to work in general the partition numbers go up from left to right in looking at it from front to end of the HD. THe saiest would be to copy and paste the info from the ones you want to an external, amke the new partitions and paste and copy back all with gparted. | 00:43 |
| === whita is now known as sam113101 | ||
| wilee-nilee | easiest for me anyway, others may have netter ideas. | 00:44 |
| wilee-nilee | better* | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis_ | fossterer: its a very good idea to backup the data BEFOR you try to resize/repartion... theres always a chance you can lose data on teh hd if somthing screws up | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis_ | power failure during a resize = bad | 00:45 |
| SchrodingersScat | Dr_Willis_: but i don't need the backups until it's too late | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis_ | SchrodingersScat: backup the backups! | 00:45 |
| === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine | ||
| fossterer | People, that's about 140 GB of data which I am not going to backup coz I have a backup at a different place | 00:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | fossterer: delete it then. | 00:46 |
| fossterer | can we move onto just the resizing | 00:46 |
| wilee-nilee | clonezilla would clone them, however the reload has to be the same size partition or bigger is all, and if the nunbers are different adjusted in the save accordingly. | 00:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | will make resizeing much faster/easier | 00:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | fire up gparted and go to town if you are not worried about the data | 00:46 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: please... deleting srikes me a joke | 00:46 |
| wilee-nilee | yeah, don;t follow any logic that would be to safe. ;) | 00:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | fossterer: you just said the data was allready backed up and not critical | 00:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | you can have 4 primary partions, one of which can be an extended.. containing logicals.. looks like you got the logicals as the ones to keep. | 00:48 |
| wilee-nilee | Alright Mr. Jones you need a lobotomy, you don;t mind if I use this rusty saw do you. | 00:48 |
| Dr_Willis_ | that means you can have 3 primary partions. | 00:48 |
| Dr_Willis_ | <sda1> <sda2> <sda3> <sda4(extended <holding <sda5> <sda6>> | 00:48 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: ok.. I'll let sda5 & 6 stay Extended.. and move the rest to primary.. can I do that? | 00:49 |
| Dr_Willis_ | to get space Out of the extended partion. might take some work. I recall it being doable. but you got to click carefully in gparted. | 00:49 |
| Dr_Willis_ | and you may need to resize sda5 and sda6 first. move them to one end of the extended. then shrink the extended. | 00:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | THEn resize the primaries | 00:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | this sound right to anyone else? i tend to use all primaries these days | 00:50 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: yeah.. sda5 doesn't get increased.. what could the reason be? | 00:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i recall needing to click VERY carefully in gparted to be sure to select the right partions. Not done this in years. | 00:51 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_Willis_, there are no primaries there http://imagebin.org/274877 | 00:51 |
| LuckySMack | hey guys. i was hoping to get some advice. ive used ubuntu server for a while but am setting up a new machine for web app development. i want to see how others have setup their environment for their actual web apps. im not as concerned about the http server as much, as much as I am the management of a staging and production environment. | 00:51 |
| wilee-nilee | oops just sda3 at the end lol | 00:51 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: wilee-nilee: The primary used to be that unallocated 141G... | 00:52 |
| LuckySMack | more along the lines of how people manage the apps themselves on their webserver between different environments. | 00:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | wilee-nilee: wow - that image reminds me of why i always use all primaries now. | 00:52 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_Willis_, Yeah, thats a bit messed up easily fixed really. | 00:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | the goal is to move that 38gb all the way to the front? | 00:53 |
| Visionaary3289 | i installed LAMP on ubuntu and i cant change anything in /www | 00:53 |
| Visionaary3289 | do i lack permissions? | 00:53 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: yep, that's one rquirement | 00:53 |
| Visionaary3289 | how do i fix this | 00:53 |
| wilee-nilee | I just never delete partitions in the middle of others to keep the numerical flow, or just know if I remove onr between the others above go down one number in an extended | 00:54 |
| fossterer | wilee-nilee: Is there a way to reassign those numbers? | 00:54 |
| === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away | ||
| Dr_Willis_ | fossterer: from what i see you would have to move sda6. reboot. (to be sure) move sda5. move sda9, (all to the right), untill the 38gb is at the start of the extended partion, then shrink the extended | 00:55 |
| wilee-nilee | I haave 7 partitons right now, 3 primaries the rest in an extended and a swap | 00:55 |
| wilee-nilee | 1,2,3 5,6,7,8 | 00:55 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: Mve sda6.. where to? | 00:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | fossterer: to the right... | 00:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | that puts the unallocated spafce to the left... | 00:56 |
| === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away | ||
| === LoganG is now known as LoganG|off | ||
| Dr_Willis_ | you might have to grow and shrink. if gparted cant safely move the data | 00:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | depending on the filesystem and how its setup. gparted cant always do all the move/resize/grow/shrink operations i recall | 00:57 |
| Dr_Willis_ | but these all seem to be ext4 - so it should be able to. | 00:57 |
| === jalcine is now known as jalcine_ | ||
| Geo | Hi, how do I get rid of several defunct processes I have in my ps list? | 00:57 |
| === LoganG|off is now known as LoganG | ||
| wilee-nilee | if any are OS"s though I would have suprgrub on hand to get back in. | 00:57 |
| Dr_Willis_ | yep - resize/move/shrinking can change the UUID (at times ive seen it happen) so i would jot down the uuid of each partion befor starting | 00:58 |
| Dr_Willis_ | this looks like perhaps a 3 day job. ;) | 00:58 |
| maxb | If you're going to have that many partitions, perhaps you should consider using GPT, thus avoiding all the mess of primary/extended/logical | 00:59 |
| Dr_Willis_ | maxb: yep ;) | 00:59 |
| maxb | gdisk can convert an existing MBR-based setup to GPT in place | 01:00 |
| Dr_Willis_ | maxb: cant say ive seen that done. :) be a neat trick. sort of a scary trick sounds like. | 01:00 |

| WinstonSmith | ah and keyb does not work in X and tty | 01:03 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: maxb: This is what I'd do.. | 01:03 |
| fossterer | 1. Boot from Ubuntu Live USB.. | 01:03 |
| fossterer | 2. Delete sda9, 8, 7 | 01:03 |
| fossterer | 3. resize 5 &6 to 120 GiB | 01:03 |
| fossterer | 4. Finally move the unallocated space to that first Unallocated Space.. | 01:03 |
| FloodBot1 | fossterer: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:03 |
| fossterer | Is that feasible? | 01:03 |
| fossterer | FloodBot1: Sorry! | 01:04 |
| maxb | fossterer: I don't understand what you mean in point 4. | 01:04 |
| maxb | Which of these partitions are currently bootable if any? What bootloader is in use? Is that NTFS partition important? | 01:05 |
| === SuperLag_ is now known as SuperLag | ||
| fossterer | maxb: After resizing sda5 & 6 I'd get a space in Extended part.. right? | 01:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | fossterer: delete te partions in front of and behind 5 and 6, then grow 5 to the left.. and 6 to the right... | 01:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | that still wont take up the unallocated thats outside the extnede. | 01:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if you want to do all extended.. then that will make things easier i guess. ;) | 01:06 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: I am ok with that too | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | you may want to resize the extended first. so its using the unallocated space to the left first.. if you can | 01:07 |
| fossterer | Dr_Willis_: I need only this last thing.. "Can I move unallocated space from Extended to Primary? If so how can I do?" | 01:07 |
| SuperLag | I've written a script I'm running as root, and I'm running gsettings to customize the Unity Launcher icons for my normal profile. But I'm guessing it's applying that command to root's profile, and not to my user. Is there a way to call gsettings as root, but apply the action to a regular user? | 01:08 |
| === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine | ||
| Dr_Willis_ | what primary? it will be sda2 the extended taking up the drive from the start, untill almost the end. | 01:08 |

| noname071896 | anybody know what kind of changes we can expect when ubuntu switches x.org for mir? | 01:11 |
| Dr_Willis_ | which is sda2. which has a Key/lock on it in that image.. so you CANT do it with it mounted/inuse | 01:11 |

| Dr_Willis_ | noname071896: from what i 'hear' the change shouldbe transparent to most people. if it works properly | 01:11 |
| noname071896 | i'm gonna be honest, i'm not going any further than 13.04, and i'm switching to arch as soon as i get it 100% working | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i imagine the nvidia and ati users will have the hardest time of it all. but thats what Xmir is for. | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis_ | noname071896: jokes on you.. you NEVER get arch 100% working. ;) | 01:12 |

| noname071896 | but i done goofed | 01:12 |

| noname071896 | point taken | 01:13 |
| === LoganG|off is now known as LoganG | ||
| Dr_Willis_ | ubuntu is focusing on conergance of their phone/tablet/pc - - so thats their design goal. arch has totally differnt goals. so it depends on your needs. | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis_ | convergance | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis_ | 'the latest buzz word' | 01:14 |
| noname071896 | i think it has something to do with user friendly-ness and expanding their market as well | 01:14 |
| noname071896 | their trying to make it more accessible for standard, non tech literate people | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis_ | I honestly think they are just throwing things out there. and seeing what sticks. ;) | 01:15 |
| wilee-nilee | honestly that's about all you can do in most of life. ;) | 01:17 |
| Dr_Willis_ | targeting the 'idiot' market - often is not the best idea however ;) no matter how nice you want to be to them.. they just seem to expect things to get dumbed down even more. ;) but time will tell. | 01:19 |
| === jalcine is now known as jalcine_ | ||

Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 01:24 |

| JurassicJon | noname071896, i've been on and off ubuntu for years, but i think i have finally made the full switch now | 01:24 |

| PinkSwing | I replaced Network-manager with Wicd as my Wifi connection was unreliable. But now Wicd does not appear in the indicator applet in the panel at the top of the screen. I am using Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome Classic. I have added 'Wicd' to the indicator panel whitelist under dconf-editor Unity panel settings but it makes no difference. I also tried setting this to ['All'] but this does not work either. The Wicd icon is also not there in Unity | 01:40 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Hmm. Im not clear on why wicd woule make the network conection more reliable. the system is still using the same wifi drivers | 01:41 |
| trism | PinkSwing: the whitelist is for unity, those things would show up in the Notification Area applet for the panel | 01:42 |
| Dr_Willis_ | PinkSwing: checked askubuntu.com yet on replaceing network manager with wicd? thee may be some tricks/tips there. | 01:42 |
| trism | PinkSwing: assuming it has a status icon | 01:42 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Im not sure how much that whitelist for the indicator applets is even used any more. | 01:42 |
| trism | yeah it's gone in 13.04 | 01:43 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i still liked how windowmaker had its dock-applets for things like that. :) let me decide what i wanted to see/keep/rearange. | 01:44 |
| PinkSwing | Dr_Willis_: The reason I changed to Wicd is because this post recommended it http://www.techdrivein.com/2012/09/slow-erratic-wifi-ubuntu1204-fixed.html | 01:44 |
| elliott04 | Im trying to install Ubuntu on a terrible old netbook I was given. After creating a USB boot drive, the installation fails and drops to an Initramfs prompt. This has happened with both Ubuntu and Mint Mate. Not sure what I am doing wrong. | 01:44 |

| ubottu | elliott04: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 01:45 |
| PinkSwing | trism: Yes I thought Unity Whitelist was irrelevant for gnome classic but it was worth a try. Wicd doesnt appear in the Notification Area applet for gnome. | 01:46 |
| PinkSwing | Dr_Willis_: The main reason I changed to Wicd is that my Wifi connection kept not working and sometimes disconnecting altogether. This has happened on two different routers and my android portable hotspot. Network Manager kept asking for the WPA key again and again even though it had not changed. | 01:48 |
| === jalcine is now known as jalcine_ | ||
| Dr_Willis_ | does wicd even need to be in the noticication area to work? | 01:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i thought wicd had a cli-variant also | 01:50 |
| PinkSwing | Dr_Willis_: Wicd doesnt need to be in the notification area to work: I can run the client from the menu. I just wanted it a signal strength icon in my panel as I often have problems with internet dropping so being able to just glance at it is handy. Also being able to click on it to change networks was handy too. I wonder if it's more an issue with the wifi driver than the network manager but then lots of people in the forums seem to me | 01:54 |

| PinkSwing | Is there an anti spam bot in here? Someone just private messaged me a spam link to a webcam | 01:56 |
| Guest63466 | my problem is on a dual boot windows system and my ethernet is not being identified on the ubuntu side | 01:56 |
| Guest63466 | there are a few forums about it but i cant seem to get anything to work | 01:56 |
| hays | is anyone else getting the behaviour where they get 400 windows saying their computer is going to go into suspend mode if they leave it alone for a little while? it looks like something is kicking up this window every so ofthen when the computer is (attempting to?) sleep | 01:58 |
| PinkSwing | Guest63466: When you say the ethernet is not being identified, what do you mean exactly? What is the expected behaviour? | 01:58 |
| PinkSwing | Guest63466: And what is not happening? | 01:59 |
| Dr_Willis_ | you mean wifi networking or a wired nic also Guest63466 ? | 01:59 |
| wrl_ | Anyone have an idea of how to get the unity dashboard to function? | 01:59 |
| Dr_Willis_ | wrl_: what unity dashboard do you mean? | 01:59 |
| MonkeyDust | 3am here, good night | 01:59 |
| xmetal | :) @ swapped my (still good) 15inch screen for a 19 inch LCD someone didn't want | 02:00 |
| Guest63466 | so to those answering my etherent question- I can see it attempting a connection but it does not go through. The windows 7 partition has full internet connectivity | 02:00 |
| Guest63466 | interestingly I loaded this partition off of a live usb drive, and the live usb boot has internet connectivity just fine | 02:00 |
| wrl_ | The icon at the top left on the panel. If I click on it, I get the page that should show files, applications, and whatever I search for. But on mine nothing happens except that the page opens. | 02:01 |

| Dr_Willis_ | wrl_: make a new user - see if it works for them | 02:02 |
| PinkSwing | Guest63466: Do you mean that when you plug in an ethernet cable, the Network Manager icon just goes round and round for ever but the Wired connection icon doesnt ever show? | 02:02 |
| Dr_Willis_ | wrl_: if a new user works - that points to a user setting issue with the problem user | 02:02 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: What do you see if you open a terminal and type "ifconfig" w/o the quotes of course. | 02:02 |
| Guest63466 | yes. it eventually says disconnected after going around and around | 02:02 |
| Guest63466 | ok i will attempt to make a new user | 02:03 |
| Dr_Willis_ | that was for wrl_ ;) | 02:03 |
| Guest63466 | oh | 02:03 |
| Guest63466 | ok | 02:03 |
| wrl_ | Dr_Willis_: I already tried that. Same behaviour. | 02:03 |
| Guest63466 | so here is the series, it boots attempts to connect to ethernet, and then says disconnected without ever giving a connection | 02:04 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sounds like a bug with the wire nic's chipset drivers you said you tried some fix's Guest63466 ? | 02:05 |
| xmetal | odd ... awhile back i was at a wifi ap that windows 7 couldn't see (that the AP even was there) ... started a Ubuntu like distro (those who know me know what one) and the AP was detected and connected too just fine | 02:05 |
| xmetal | :) @ ubuntu | 02:05 |
| Guest63466 | multiple soureces said it was due to dual booting the system and the windows driver shuts down the lan | 02:05 |
| Guest63466 | so i tried a fix in bios and nothing happened | 02:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Guest63466: try powering OFF the system. and booting straight to ubuntu, not a reboot from windows. perhaps | 02:06 |
| Guest63466 | I have dr.willis its a partitioned drive | 02:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ive seen a few weird hard ware devices that windows would put in a mode that linux couldent reset | 02:06 |
| Guest63466 | so i am booting directly into ubuntu | 02:06 |
| CrackerJack | quit | 02:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | other then that. no idea. driver bugs can be a pain. | 02:06 |
| Guest63466 | also i stress that the USB i loaded this off of has a live partition, and when booting to the partition there IS live etherent | 02:06 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: That is after actually doing a full shutdown? | 02:07 |
| elliott04 | Maybe I dont understand, but that doesnt appear to help me. I have windows 7 installed on the netbook without ubuntu - which has never been installed as of yet. I have made a live usb via unetbootin and changed my bios to boot from it. When I reboot the netbook, I not shown the Ubuntu language select like the wiki shows - instead a blue box with the UNetbootin title, and one option for Default. When selected, a wall of text occurs, | 02:07 |
| elliott04 | After that I am left at the Initramfs propt. | 02:07 |
| Guest63466 | wrl yes. | 02:07 |
| wrl_ | Have you done an ifconfig to see if the device is recognized by the network software? | 02:08 |
| Guest63466 | no what would the command be | 02:08 |
| wrl_ | In a terminal, type "ifconfig" | 02:09 |
| xmetal | i admit i neer worked with Unetbootin ... i make (via windows) boot usbs with a different app | 02:09 |

| xmetal | wubi ? | 02:09 |
| xmetal | brb | 02:10 |
| xmetal | Yumi is what the exe says | 02:10 |
| Guest63466 | ok i did ifconfig and it read as eth1 | 02:10 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: Also while you'r there type "lsub" to see what kind of ethernet device you have. | 02:10 |
| xmetal | (that sounds like baby-talk.. lol) | 02:10 |

| xmetal | !bootusb | 02:11 |
| xmetal | hmm thats not it | 02:11 |

| wrl_ | Guest63466: If the router is assigning you numbers like 192.168.1.3 where the "3" might be anything from 2 to 20 then we can just use a number outside of that range. | 02:26 |
| Guest63466 | then 192.168.1.3 and so on | 02:26 |

I can blindly choose which operating system to boot on grub(ubuntu is a black screen). if i boot into windows, i can only work in 800x600 and in 16 colors. any tips? | 02:32 |
| lotuspsychje | PinkSwing: can you describe what your actual problem is with your wifi connection | 02:32 |
| ubukou | my psu is 750watts and the GPU is GTX650 | 02:32 |
| ubukou | can it be that i have 9 disks (6 RAID+3 normal) | 02:33 |
| lotuspsychje | ubukou: wich ubuntu version? | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ubukou: you did plug the power conector to the video card? | 02:34 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: You don't have 2 ethernet interfaces do you? If not try "ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.255 192.168.1.100" and if there are no errors follow with "ifconfig eth0" | 02:35 |
| ubukou | Dr_Willis_, lotuspsychje i have. i have used the pci-e connector that is onboard the PSU( not the extra one, the Red.) im running ubuntu 12.10 | 02:35 |
| Guest63466 | i have a duel boot system with win 7, is that 2 interfaces? | 02:36 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: No it isn't | 02:36 |
| ubukou | dr_willis, i understand that a system needs more amps to start. can it be that the GPU has not enough power to start? i mean 9 disks is not that much | 02:36 |

| mojtaba | is 14.04 the next LTS? | 02:44 |

| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) | 02:45 |

| Dr_Willis_ | mysterbubbles: dident you ask this about 3 hrs ago? | 02:45 |
| Guest63466 | wrl route gave me a few blank fields | 02:46 |
| xmetal | mot, i think it is | 02:46 |

| LinuxGuy2020 | I installed ubuntu-server and I have used wpa_supplicant and wpa_passphrase to get wifi working on my headless mini-itx server. I have minidlna running at boot but it throws an error and doesnt start. Im guessing that its starting before the wifi does. But its a complete guess. How can I fix this? | 02:46 |
| mysterbubbles | Dr_Willis_: sure did, it was recommended that i look at automount in repos, but i'm not sure what that means. Were you the one to recommend it? | 02:46 |
| PinkSwing | And what happens after we get to Xenophobic Xenurine, Yammering Yak, and Zealous Zebra? Do we go back to Arachnophobic Aardvark? | 02:47 |
| cipherboy | Also, running 3.11.0-12, 13.10. I know it worked before this latest version of Ubuntu.. | 02:47 |
| LinuxGuy2020 | minidlna worked fine with the LAN hooked up. But I want to make this mini-itx server headless and wireless. | 02:47 |
| mysterbubbles | DasEi1: I did create an entry in fstab mounting /dev/dvd to /media/cdrom, but that isn't working for me. | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | mysterbubbles: theres most likely severaal services in the reositories that can do what yopu want. | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | mysterbubbles: 'autofs' seems to be one of them | 02:47 |

| mysterbubbles | Dr_Willis_: is autofs a better option than fstab? | 02:48 |
| LinuxGuy2020 | The ftp, transmission, and samba daemons all start just fine. Minidlna is the only one giving me grief. | 02:48 |
| DasEi1 | mysterbubbles: set it to auto with the corresponding permissions (and also the /media/cd.. -dir?) | 02:49 |
| PinkSwing | Dr_Willis_: I have a fondness for Hardy Heron since that's where I started in Linux. Another bird with a hat on, but this time a bowler! | 02:49 |

| Dr_Willis_ | mysterbubbles: you wanted it to mount on insertion automatically.. fstab will not do that | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs | 02:50 |
| mysterbubbles | Dr_Willis_: gotcha. I'll give that a try, thanks. | 02:50 |

| Guest63466 | um in my browser i type 192.168.1.1 | 02:54 |
| garcianc | that's not going to work so well if eth1 is in the 192.168.1 network | 02:54 |

| Zeek | wireless drivers support | 02:57 |
| garcianc | that's a problem, that is a broadcast address | 02:57 |
| Guest63466 | was 196.168.1.225 | 02:58 |

| wrl_ | Guest63466: ifconfig should show 192.168.1.100 as the address | 03:00 |

| Guest63466 | do you want to ping broadcast? then -b | 03:03 |
| Guest63466 | type -b? | 03:03 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: No -c5, you want to go directly to the interface. | 03:04 |
| Guest63466 | type -c5? | 03:04 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: that just a count so ping will quit after 5 pings. | 03:05 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: the command is "ping -c5 127.0.0.0" | 03:05 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: I'm sorry... 127.0.0.1 | 03:06 |

| jakstar | how do i find out what wireless card i have | 03:08 |
| pogiako | how is 13.10 doing guys? | 03:08 |
| wrl_ | jakstar: you need to determine what wireless device you have in your computer. | 03:08 |
| jakstar | how do i find that? | 03:09 |
| jakstar | i ran this lspci -k | 03:09 |
| mamoit | Use hardinfo | 03:09 |

| Psil0Cybin | hey guys how can i check if my ubuntu box is encrypted | 03:12 |
| Psil0Cybin | i remember there was a command | 03:12 |
| Psil0Cybin | i want to make sure my whole machine is encrypted and not just my home directory | 03:12 |
| jakstar | i checked in device manager and it says i have this driver installed broadcom 802.11b g | 03:13 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: Yeah, let me take a look at the route commands again to see if maybe I messed it up. You have more than one machine on your LAN? | 03:13 |
| Guest63466 | no | 03:13 |
| lanlingking | irc聊天的内容 | 03:13 |
| Guest63466 | just the 1 and everything else is wireless | 03:13 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: Its the same LAN though isn't it? | 03:13 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: youn simply look at sudo fdisk -l and see the partition-types | 03:15 |
| Guest63466 | yes same router | 03:15 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: and oc /boot is always plain, on a LUKS-system | 03:15 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: What is the IP of the machine that you are using now? | 03:15 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: what would it look like if its encrypted? | 03:16 |
| Guest63466 | 192.168.1.3 | 03:16 |
| jakstar | can someone help me to determine what my wifi adapter is???? | 03:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | can i post it on a pastebin? | 03:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | jakstar: 'lspci' and 'lsusb' should give a clue as its chipset. | 03:16 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: OK, remember that, I'll be right back. | 03:16 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: sec, I do a pastie | 03:16 |
| Guest63466 | ok | 03:16 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: http://pastebin.com/9NZr02NL here is the paste, keep in mind i have a windows7 partition as well on this computer | 03:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | 40 something gb ubuntu install | 03:18 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: if it is not encrypted what can i do to encrypt my whole computer | 03:19 |
| wrl_ | Guest63466: try "sudo route add -net 192.160.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0" | 03:20 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: looking now, similar to this (fake numbers in this example) http://pastebin.com/ASVBLguH | 03:20 |
| PinkSwing | I found how to check the log for Network Manager: grep -i networkmanager /var/log/syslog I tried the same for wicd: grep -i wicd /var/log/syslog but that doesnt show much of interest. You can see both at http://pastebin.com/Y9VRpUpL Anyone know how I would check the log for wicd? | 03:20 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: Is the win on the same hd ? | 03:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay | 03:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: yes | 03:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: looking at what you stated it doesnt look like its encrypted | 03:20 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: using uefi or mbr boot ? | 03:20 |
| Psil0Cybin | i dont know | 03:21 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: which you installed first, win or ubuntu ? | 03:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | win | 03:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | win came with the machine | 03:21 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: newer motherboard ? | 03:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | im waiting till i want to format to remove it and do a full out xubuntu install | 03:21 |
| Psil0Cybin | um its an acer aspire one d270-1628 | 03:22 |
| Psil0Cybin | i remember someone helpd me before with a command that encrypted it | 03:22 |
| Psil0Cybin | but that was on my other comp i forget the command | 03:22 |
| genii | DasEi1: I have that same Acer, it doesn't have UEFI | 03:25 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: see, the problem is the bootloader, UEFI also uses something similar to a /boot, and the initiation of the en/decryption-process always starts in Plain. If you want a dualboot with whole disk encryption 1.install win /w truecrypt 2.install xubuntu /w Luks 3./make the truecrypt loader handle over to xubuntu's grub, when wanted;; ah no uefi is ('lil) less complicated, but same food | 03:26 |
| Psil0Cybin | ohhhh so i have a problem because im dual booted? | 03:26 |
| Psil0Cybin | i am confused | 03:26 |
| Psil0Cybin | i just want to encrypt the ubuntu partition | 03:26 |
| Psil0Cybin | i was thinking of using gparted to remove the windows partition and make ubuntu larger, but people said its not recommended. | 03:27 |
| emperor | spanish | 03:27 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: just the ubu ? then 1.)win (leave space on hd!) then xubu/grub, it will pic up the win to it's menu | 03:27 |

| Psil0Cybin | i did it on my HP but it was only a Ubuntu laptop | 03:28 |
| emperor | genii DasEil Thanks !! | 03:29 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: you COULD fully encrypt an existing ubuntu-installation, but that's painfull, better do a fresh install and use the installers options , so all that lvm-tuff is done for you | 03:30 |
| Nautilus | is www-data a user, a group, or maybe both? | 03:30 |
| DasEi1 | stuff* | 03:30 |
| ubuntu-studio | helo | 03:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Nautilus: i think its both. its a special user. | 03:30 |
| DasEi1 | Nautilus: try users and groups on it | 03:31 |
| genii | Nautilus: It's the user and group which webserver runs under | 03:31 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto3 it suggests that you can mount using cryptsetup | 03:31 |
| genii | ( usually uid 33) | 03:31 |
| Psil0Cybin | i mean you can encrypt using cryptsetup | 03:32 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: you COULD fully encrypt an existing ubuntu-installation, but that's painfull, better do a fresh install and use the installers options , so all that lvm-stuff is done, else have to shavel around all your data, lot's of manual config... can't recommend it | 03:32 |

| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: the installers are pretty friendly, see if there is an alternate version maybe, or use an expert install, if the regular installer isn't fine grained enough, netboot also a choice, if available | 03:34 |
| niel | for a minecraft server what type of server should it be? | 03:34 |
| niel | ubuntu server edition wants me to choose | 03:34 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: well if i use the default encryption method, will that just encrypt my home directory or the whole partition? | 03:34 |
| Psil0Cybin | i want to encrypt swap and everything | 03:34 |
| Psil0Cybin | or do i have to advance specify | 03:35 |

| Dr_Willis_ | guest_____: what config file are you editing exactly? | 03:37 |
| wilee-nilee | hopefully, generally yes, we guess the forum is following the rules | 03:37 |
| DasEi1 | huh, you could get the settings of /etc and a package list to use it back, but that has a good risk of trouble as packets changed, other window-makers are used and so on, packaelist is fine, so you can get all your setup back, thus still have to configure it again < the safer way , Psil0Cybin | 03:37 |
| DasEi1 | !clone | 03:38 |
| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » (this may cause problems with multiarch before 12.10) - See also !automate | 03:38 |

| Psil0Cybin | in order to encrypt my whole computer Rogue-3 | 03:40 |
| Psil0Cybin | like the whole ubuntu partition | 03:40 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: no, you can either just encrypt home, but thats another method than LUKS, whole disk is LUKS (cryptsetup) | 03:40 |
| fraud | does anyone know the name of the little app that can show or hide the computer/home/trash folders on the desktop? | 03:40 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay but i want whole disk | 03:41 |
| Psil0Cybin | encryption | 03:41 |
| Psil0Cybin | how would i dothat then? | 03:41 |
| guest_____ | I am running Ubuntu 12.04 and trying to fix the cdrom tray ejection issue. | 03:41 |
| Rogue-3 | Psil0Cybin: gotcha, well if you have extra storage somewhere you could just back up your entire filesystem and then restore it after reformatting | 03:41 |
| DasEi1 | LUKS by installer, as told above, Psil0Cybin | 03:41 |
| Psil0Cybin | Oh okay so by DEFAULT it encrypts my whole disk | 03:41 |
| Psil0Cybin | right? | 03:41 |
| moppy | guest_____, dr wills was right; 'comment it' means put a '#' at the start of the line, so that the computer does NOT execute it | 03:41 |
| wilee-nilee | guest_____, If I read correctly post #8 it is a remove the # | 03:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | Rogue-3: how do i backup my whole filesystem so that i can keep all my themes and settings changes for all my apps, so it will be like i never formatted | 03:42 |
| wilee-nilee | rather than add it | 03:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | other then im missing files | 03:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | and applications | 03:42 |
| wilee-nilee | # is a block | 03:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: so by default it encrypts my whole disk? sorry wnat to confirm | 03:42 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: option whole disk-e with lvm in the installer you mussn't choose, as that'll kill win, set up an lvm > use as > and so on | 03:43 |
| wilee-nilee | guest_____, Actually it is # that line and change it to another sorry. | 03:43 |
| Rogue-3 | Psil0Cybin: personally I'd use rsync but tar or even cp could produce the same end result | 03:43 |
| DasEi1 | Rogue-3: ?? | 03:44 |
| Rogue-3 | DasEi1: talking about how to back up his existing system before reformatting the drive to enable the encryption | 03:44 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: after win being installed, you don't want whole disk for ubu, right ? | 03:45 |
| guest_____ | Inside the rules.d file in my Ubuntu install, there is no #. Should I add it then to tell the computer NOT to execute the line? | 03:45 |
| DasEi1 | Rogue-3: ah , I see | 03:45 |
| === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler | ||
| DasEi1 | still in setup :) | 03:45 |
| wilee-nilee | guest_____, That's what the link is saying, whether doing it is your decision, we have to assume it is correct. | 03:46 |
| guest_____ | Wait, wrong file. It is 60-cdrom_id.rules | 03:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | wait wait guys lets back up a minute, if im formatting yes i want to remove windows.. i want Ubuntu to be the only operating system and i want it fully encrypted so i cannot see a single thing with a liveCD | 03:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | how would i go about that | 03:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | i want to start with creating an image or backup of all my system info so i can keep all my themes and application settings | 03:46 |
| === ipmonger_ is now known as ipmonger | ||
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: righty, then use installers option whole... with lvm, all will be set so | 03:47 |
| === ese is now known as TinFoilHat | ||
| Psil0Cybin | so that should be all in the GUI right DasEi1 ? | 03:47 |
| DasEi1 | yupp | 03:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | or do i type in advanced commands | 03:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay | 03:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | perfect! :) | 03:47 |
| === TinFoilHat is now known as se | ||
| Psil0Cybin | okay now | 03:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | next question | 03:47 |
| === se is now known as ese | ||
| Psil0Cybin | how can i create an image of my settings | 03:48 |
| wilee-nilee | guest_____, adding the # is what tells the computer not to execute. | 03:48 |
| Psil0Cybin | so i can reformat using all my themes/etc | 03:48 |
| Psil0Cybin | so i have my desktop back jut missing my files | 03:48 |
| Rogue-3 | Psil0Cybin: do you have a network/external hdd you can back up to? | 03:48 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: to the settings all is said above, and to backup I either use rsync for my /home on a secondary drive, or, if 2nd drive is big enough clone it by dd | 03:48 |
| Psil0Cybin | my second drive is 500gbs its big enough | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | oh wait | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | i guess id need to boot from it right | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | if i clone it how many gbs would it be? | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | would it clone all my home files? | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: use dd or clonezilla to image the entire hd would be one way | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | clonezilla | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | kk | 03:49 |
| Psil0Cybin | thats it | 03:49 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis_ | No idea how encrypted stuff affects those tools. | 03:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | nono encrypting after | 03:50 |
| Rogue-3 | Psil0Cybin: you can clone pretty much everything on a linux system while it is up and running (though it helps to stop as many services as possible) | 03:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | using clonezilla to get my settings | 03:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay Rogue-3 thanks and wierd tho guys on my HP i was able to use cryptsetup to encrypt my partition without formatting :P thats why i was confused with all this | 03:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | i just forgot what i did | 03:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | i remember restarting and seeing a list of every single file | 03:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | being encrypted | 03:51 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: I'd just replicate the packages and have my /home (or if other data-dirs where created, them, too) and go by hand, else one should have some debugging skills handy | 03:51 |
| Psil0Cybin | someone here helped me do it >.< | 03:51 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: COULD, but hen you really do a footwalk on the highway... I'm not up to it | 03:52 |
| guest_____ | I understand. Thanks. | 03:52 |
| fraud | SOMEONE- there is a little app that allows you to show or hide your desktop folders (computer/home/trash). Does anyone know the name of it? | 03:52 |

| sophie_ | If a filesystem isn't hierarchical, does it mean that you can't have a directory within a directory? | 03:54 |
| DasEi1 | sophie_: yupp | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dateing back to C64 days? ;) | 03:55 |
| DasEi1 | hehe | 03:55 |
| === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off | ||
| Psil0Cybin | alright DasEi1 i see its alot of work | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis_ | I recall when the HD floppy drive came out for the C64/128 - it had a way to make directories. but it was sort of a gimmic. ;P | 03:55 |
| sophie_ | So does that mean you'd have one set of folders with files in them, or does it mean you'd just have one long list of files? | 03:55 |
| Psil0Cybin | hmmm odd tho, i dont get it maybe it was easier before becasue i only had the partitions i needed for ubuntu | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sophie_: one looooooooooooooooooong list. | 03:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | or what it was | 03:56 |
| sophie_ | Dr_Willis_, that sounds like hell | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sophie_: are you doing homework or somthing? | 03:56 |
| sophie_ | I was just watching a video on filesystems | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sophie_: in the C64 days a 2mb floppy disk was amazeing... | 03:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: if i had only the partitions i needed for ubuntu would it be easier to encrypt my whole partition via the terminal? | 03:56 |
| Psil0Cybin | i just am confused how i did it before | 03:56 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: even I played around a lot, I'd use an expert cd, instead of shuffling and calculating and configurin and repartioning all that ...muharrr | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | i remember just running one command, typing in a password and restarting the machine and as i did that it listed every file one by one | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | stating it was being encrypted with cryptsetup | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | yea eh | 03:57 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: so what is the best way to back up all my themes/icons/changes that i did to the file system like within the /etc/ folder | 03:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | so that i can make sure everything is the same after i format | 03:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | someone said clonezilla, but i dunno if thats user friendly | 03:58 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: prbly just /home and enough free disk space | 03:58 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: see above, and scroll back, it's all said in my eyes; don't confuse myself, better have a second link to here when actually doing it | 03:59 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: err, don't confuse yourself, I wanted to say (am I confused??) | 04:00 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay DasEi1 would it be possible to encrypt my home directory? | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | so i dont have to format untill i am ready | 04:02 |
| fraud | how do you hide your desktop folders? | 04:02 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: get your data from both, win&ubu to an external, replicate your packages, do a fresh whd-installation any config by hand fitting new environment | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi1: I remember doing it by creating a new homedirectory encrypting it, deleting old one, copying the encrypted one over | 04:02 |
| Psil0Cybin | ah lets take it back a step DasEi1 how can i see if my home directory is encrypted, if not, could you help me encrypt it? | 04:03 |
| DasEi1 | Psil0Cybin: yesss....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome , few ways to do it; got your fdisk -l pastie again ? | 04:04 |

| Psil0Cybin | AH WALLA DasEi1 | 04:05 |
| Psil0Cybin | this is the guide i used | 04:05 |
| Psil0Cybin | http://www.howtogeek.com/116032/ | 04:05 |
| FloodBot1 | Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:05 |
| Psil0Cybin | i encrypted my home directory last time, thats what happend | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | jackstar: you copy the files to the right directory and the driver module loads them. the addational-driver tool normally handles all this | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ive seen way to many users sort of lock themselfs out of their own systems by useing encrypted homes and disks Psil0Cybin . | 04:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: so be sure to have Non encrypted backups somewhere. | 04:06 |
| Psil0Cybin | how does that happen Dr_Willis_ | 04:06 |
| Psil0Cybin | usually | 04:06 |
| Psil0Cybin | so i can learn from mistakes | 04:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: no idea. I dont use encryption. | 04:07 |
| Dr_Willis_ | #1 cause is they dont understand how encryption works.. is my guess. | 04:07 |
| Dr_Willis_ | so they do somthing stupid. | 04:07 |
| Psil0Cybin | makes sense | 04:07 |
| Psil0Cybin | okay Dr_Willis_ is there a command i can run before i do this to see if my home directory is already encrypted | 04:07 |
| Psil0Cybin | fdisk would only tell me right? | 04:07 |

| wilee-nilee | Vivekananda, ISO would be for install, live is linux only, I use the multisystem app at pendrive linux for multiple iso's on a stick. XP is a whole other thing however, and really a waste of time to use anyway it is eol in less than 6 months, but it can be put on a usb for installs. | 04:27 |

| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: well looking here.. you define what profile to use in the layout settings | 04:44 |
| c__ | how do i check the md5sum of iso? | 04:44 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !md5sum | c__ | 04:45 |
| ubottu | c__: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 04:45 |

| Psil0Cybin | DasEi: so what do i do if my swap is encrypted but i want to encrypt my home directory and it says to encrypt my swap | 04:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | do i encrypt it again or no | 04:46 |
| default | dr willis: nope. I have two cd's one I recently bought that was released a couple years ago, and another that I have had for about 10 years and always worked fine before. But last time I played a dvd was back when medibuntu existed. I only just learned tonight that it is no longer | 04:46 |
| rick_deckard | how do I uninstall ubuntu one? | 04:46 |
| cfhowlett | rick_deckard, just don't use it? no need to uninstall if you don't set it up/activate it. | 04:46 |
| DasEi | Psil0Cybin: do a fresh whole disk e, see above, all is fine | 04:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | default: ive not needed medibintu to play dvd's in.. years ;) | 04:46 |
| Psil0Cybin | fresh whole disk e? | 04:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | default: i have encountered new dvd movies that have some sort of 'enhanced' protection that are often impossible to read in a pc or older dvd player. :( without some effort/extra software | 04:47 |
| rick_deckard | cfhowlett, you have a very good point. I am annoid at the cloud in the panel tho | 04:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi: i ran sudo fdisk -l on my other machine that was also encrypted home directory via the INSTALL GUI, and it states the same thing only Swap is encrypted | 04:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | ... | 04:47 |
| rick_deckard | mocking me | 04:47 |
| Psil0Cybin | but i encrypted that one using the migreating home folder method | 04:47 |
| rick_deckard | the lil ubuntu one cloud mocks me | 04:48 |
| cfhowlett | rick_deckard, best response to mockery it to ignore it. | 04:48 |
| roscogruen | i just got a pm from natti about going to a url. what is up? | 04:48 |
| nerder | Dr_Willis_, i dnt get it sorry | 04:48 |
| default | <Dr_Willis_: it has been years... ;/ | 04:49 |
| cfhowlett | roscogruen, ask natti | 04:49 |
| Hempathy | Hi guys I'm looking for display help, cool to ask questions here? | 04:49 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: never used the feature either. not sure what you mean really.. if you edit the default profile - it uses that one by default | 04:49 |
| DasEi | Psil0Cybin: might it be that you used private folder but not lux ? | 04:49 |
| nerder | i setted up my profile, but there's no option for keep as default | 04:49 |
| cfhowlett | Hempathy, yes. as | 04:49 |
| cfhowlett | *ask* | 04:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi: i used the GUI from the install | 04:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | when i installed the system | 04:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | it asked me if i wnated to encrypt the home directory and i selected yes | 04:50 |
| nerder | Dr_Willis_, there's no way for change the default one? | 04:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | but ur telling me that only my swap is encrypted. | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: edit the one named default, or delete it. | 04:50 |
| Hempathy | Sweet, started using dual monitor with HDMI & 13.04 shuts down after ~5 mins or so, any ideas? | 04:50 |
| nerder | i mean which one is the default? | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: the one named 'default' | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis_ | which is the only one you cant delete. ;) | 04:51 |
| nerder | Dr_Willis_, ok got it ;) some confusion with "dafault" as a word and "default" as a name of profile ;) | 04:51 |
| nerder | thx ;) | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: now i have NO idea what 'layouts' do in terminator. | 04:51 |
| roscogruen | Dr_Willis_: do i type "!md5sum" | 04:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: im guessing theres some terminator command line options to use difent layouts and profiles also | 04:52 |
| roscogruen | the commands in the links the bot gave me ain't workin' | 04:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | roscogruen: you READ what the bot said when we activated the !md5sum bot trigger | 04:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | roscogruen: what commands did you use exactly and whats the esact error message | 04:52 |
| roscogruen | ubuntu@ubuntu-desktop:~$ cd Downloads | 04:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | DasEi: i think ur wrong, i think its encrypted not just the swap. I ran a live CD and tried to access my home folder and it said Access Denied. but every other folder i can access | 04:54 |
| Hempathy | Am I ok repeating my question, don't wanna spam, but had no luck finding an answer? | 04:54 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: normal permissions will give you denied. | 04:54 |
| Psil0Cybin | anyone else know any other methods i can use to confirm my ome directory is infact encrypted | 04:54 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: access it as root. | 04:54 |
| Dr_Willis_ | and look at the files in the directory | 04:54 |
| Psil0Cybin | so root into it? | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | !patience|Hempathy, understood and thank you. | 04:54 |
| ubottu | Hempathy, understood and thank you.: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ | 04:54 |
| roscogruen | k. that was for winders | 04:54 |
| Psil0Cybin | like sudo cd folder? | 04:54 |
| roscogruen | no it wasn't. | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: no.... sudo ls -l /path/to./the/dir | 04:55 |
| DasEi | Psil0Cybin: that also let's you choose on some discs; did you run the live as root ? I think it is all said and will only get more confusing now... | 04:55 |
| Hempathy | Thanks guys :) | 04:55 |
| DasEi | Hempathy: all half hour or so, sure | 04:55 |
| DasEi | Hempathy: sometimes re-phrasing helps, too | 04:56 |
| roscogruen | Dr_Willis_: i don't understand what is in the commands (ex: downloads). the file is "ubuntu.iso" on my desktop. terminal is in home directory | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: you could make a launcher for terminator that runs 'terminator --profile=yourprofile' or --layout=yourlayout also | 04:57 |
| Dr_Willis_ | roscogruen: md5sum /path/to/the/ubuntu.iso | 04:57 |
| Hempathy | Chur, I don't use irc often enough to be aware of the etiquette | 04:57 |
| Dr_Willis_ | and your desktop is /home/yourusername/Desktop/ | 04:57 |
| Dr_Willis_ | roscogruen: so md5sum /home/yourusername/Desktop/ubuntu.iso | 04:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | Dr_Willis_: so i think it worked | 04:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | i got this | 04:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | http://pastebin.com/fD8MAp5y | 04:58 |
| nerder | Dr_Willis_, yes is true but when you split the terminal in 2 the second one the you open in this way use "default" as profile and not yours, anywy i edit default a s mine and i fix it ;) | 04:58 |
| keith_ | Greetings again solvers. Tonight we have the case of the disappearing desktop. Instead of a nice screen display and icons text in a font and color that's easy to read, I get a dark purple gradient and default black icon text. Just to make it interesting, sometimes a reboot brings things back the way they should be. Any thoughts? | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis_ | nerder: you can change profiles on the fly i noticed. | 04:58 |
| Psil0Cybin | does this make sense Dr_Willis_ http://pastebin.com/fD8MAp5y does this infact mean i cannot access it as root? | 04:59 |
| keith_ | Should mention - running UbuntuStudio 12.04 in non-session mode | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: looks encrypted to me | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis_ | read that readme file? | 05:00 |
| DasEi | Hempathy: never mind, people will tell you if you break it or-as you do-just ask :) | 05:00 |
| roscogruen | Where do i get the sm5sum to verify? | 05:00 |
| roscogruen | md5sum ^ | 05:01 |

| Dr_Willis_ | the ftp site you get the iso file from should have a md5sum file with all the sums for all the isos | 05:01 |
| cfhowlett | roscogruen, read this link ^^^ | 05:01 |
| DasEi | roscogruen ah, where ? you mean for the installer iso ? | 05:01 |
| roscogruen | where do i find the origjnal? i located the one on my desktop. now need to check it | 05:02 |
| Dr_Willis_ | roscogruen: the original what? | 05:02 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !downloads | 05:02 |

| DasEi | roscogruen: it's provided by the d/l site, and then you a : md5sum blah.iso, get a string back and compare with the one from the site | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis_ | http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.10/MD5SUMS | 05:03 |
| DasEi | you do* a | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis_ | md5sum has some option to read the sum from the file also | 05:03 |
| DasEi | :) | 05:03 |
| roscogruen | Dr_Willis_: i got 12.04.03 desktop | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis_ | roscogruen: so look for the md5sum file at the url above.. | 05:04 |

| Psil0Cybin | so looks good to me | 05:08 |
| Psil0Cybin | i would run the command but i dont want to cause problems | 05:08 |
| Psil0Cybin | wtih that ome directory when i take out the live cd. | 05:08 |
| Psil0Cybin | ill run a live cd on my other laptop and run the same command to verify | 05:10 |
| Psil0Cybin | and ill also post on the forums i want to make sure just feel wierd that fdisk -l would say only my swap is encrypted | 05:10 |
| Dr_Willis_ | the FILES IN your home directory are encrypted Psil0Cybin . not the partion where home is at. | 05:15 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Psil0Cybin: the swap partition is encrypted.. since there is no 'files' there | 05:15 |
| Dr_Willis_ | you got some .encrypted-home-files file in your home is how i think it works.. use ls -al to see | 05:16 |

| BlackFlag | How do I know the version of of my wireless card driver? | 05:36 |
| lotuspsychje | BlackFlag: lshw -C network | 05:37 |
| Dr_Willis_ | it would depend on your kernel version i imagine | 05:37 |
| BlackFlag | kernel version is 3.2.6 | 05:37 |
| BlackFlag | lshw shows me the number of kernel version | 05:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sudo lshw -C network | 05:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | shows 'version : 06' here ;) for one of my cards.. but i think thats the card version. not the module version | 05:39 |
| BlackFlag | "driverversion=3.2.6" =/ | 05:40 |
| Hempathy_ | Ubuntu shuts down on me using dual monitors.... help me irc you're my only hope! | 05:41 |

| Hempathy_ | that was my last me quitting due to unrequested shutdown! | 05:42 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Hempathy_: whats your video chipset and driver? | 05:42 |

| Dr_Willis_ | time to install apt-file ! ;P | 05:52 |
| lacrem | ok, I've been trying to install Ubuntu (and other distros) in my laptop (it's a Medion Erazer X6823, a gaming laptop made from an MSI GT60 base, I guess motherboard, graphic card and everything still comes from MSi). The point is the only distro is booting the live pendrive in this laptop is ArchLinux, Ubuntu starts booting, then stays in a blank screen, I can see the pendrive light like is reading but after 4 seconds stops. I | 05:52 |
| lacrem | have tried everything, -nomodeset -lpsci believing it was by the nvidia optimus but is not because if I boot in legacy mode is working. Now I have installed Manjaro in legacy mode, because with Ubuntu after installing it in legacy mode it was not shutting down properly the computer, after shutting down and switching on again, or after rebooting the laptop was entering the bios setup ... I've search in ubuntu forums, I found s | 05:52 |
| lacrem | omeone with the same problem but was not solved.... | 05:52 |
| zexcriz | is their any web based interface to manage kvm virtual machines ? | 05:52 |

| ubottu | Oeslian: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 06:16 |
| DasEi | Oeslian: I gtg soon, but Dr_willis might have some help | 06:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Oeslian: look at the 'bumblebee' wiki pages/docs/guides and info on askubuntu.com and otehr sites. its needed for dual gpu machines | 06:29 |
| Mace268 | is it risky to do a version upgrade? | 06:29 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Mace268: lots of people upgrade from one relase to the next with no issues.. | 06:30 |
| Atrumx | no | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | some people have lots of issues. ;) | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | but this is a support channel. so we tend to see people that have issues more then people who have no issues. ;) | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | I upgraded with no hassles. | 06:30 |
| Mace268 | good point xD | 06:30 |
| cfhowlett | Dr_Willis_, most upgrade without issue - but when you DO get issues ... thus the clean install over upgrade recommendation | 06:31 |
| Mace268 | to 13.10? | 06:31 |
| xmetal | true | 06:31 |
| Dr_Willis_ | its often faster to clean install then upgrade several releases. | 06:31 |
| Oeslian | Dr_Willis_ thanks for the tips, i hav | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | and if you got a lot of ppa's and other stuff enabled.. that can cause issues | 06:32 |
| xmetal | i dont upgrade "every release" but every few releases and i choose to do a clean install of the new versipn | 06:32 |
| Oeslian | i have been googling but have not found much info* | 06:32 |
| xmetal | and then upgrade the packages i want | 06:32 |
| xmetal | update/upgrade ... whatever | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | I tend to beta test stuff.. so i install a lot of crud i never use for testing.. | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | so after i play with it a while. i tend to do a clean install a few weeks after release for each reelase | 06:33 |
| Mace268 | thanks for the infos :) | 06:33 |
| TeeGhost | how to display Chinese in tty? | 06:33 |
| zexcriz | i want to open remotely my router configuration page in the terminal is that possible using text based browser if yes than which ? | 06:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | zexcriz: ive used lynx or links to get to my router web config page befor. | 06:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | it may or may not work well - depends on the router | 06:35 |
| TeeGhost | zexcriz: a text browser?lynx or w3m | 06:35 |
| deego | zexcriz: heh, I even "expected" it. :) | 06:36 |
| zexcriz | cool :D | 06:37 |
| TeeGhost | w3m can display images | 06:38 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i think links. or links2 can also. but its been ages ;) | 06:38 |
| niel | so should I use java sun or java 7 for minecraft servers? | 06:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | niel: whatever the minecraft docs reccomend. ;) | 06:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | and its no longer sun java. | 06:39 |
| niel | well everyone says something different | 06:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | flip a coin. and try one i guess | 06:40 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !java | 06:40 |
| ubottu | 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. | 06:40 |
| niel | and screw minecraft docs they are still deving on java 5 | 06:40 |
| Dr_Willis_ | the doc writers are to busy running from creepers | 06:40 |
| niel | lol | 06:41 |
| niel | and its not regular minecraft its heavily modded | 06:41 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ive never played minecraft. - did play Terreria on steam for a while. ;) | 06:41 |
| niel | you should | 06:41 |
| niel | deb taking a long time to install | 06:41 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ill pass. ;) i got enough time wasters | 06:41 |
| niel | tried 10 different os's today | 06:42 |
| niel | only like 3 actually work with this graphics card | 06:42 |
| Dr_Willis_ | hmm... steam is not working for me on 13.10 | 06:42 |
| niel | works for me | 06:42 |
| niel | what flavour? | 06:42 |
| Dr_Willis_ | 'could not connect to the steam network .. this could be die to a prolem with the internet connection or the steam network....' | 06:43 |
| Dr_Willis_ | but its on this pc. ;) | 06:43 |
| Dr_Willis_ | so internetz is working | 06:43 |
| Mace268 | upgrade in progress, wish me luck xD | 06:44 |
| niel | Dr_Willis_, derp firewall? | 06:44 |
| Dr_Willis_ | niel: none here that i have enabled. | 06:44 |
| Dr_Willis_ | router is fairly open also | 06:44 |
| niel | weird | 06:45 |
| niel | regular ubuntu? | 06:45 |
| niel | works great on xubuntu | 06:45 |
| jack | just have the router forward _all_ ports | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sudo iptables --flush so got no rules. | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | same router as the windows box uses for its steam | 06:46 |
| jmgk | rhii | 06:46 |
| niel | steam blocked you ;) | 06:46 |
| jmgk | hii | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | havent been on steam in months | 06:47 |
| niel | go try on the winderps box | 06:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if i get steam started.. i proberly will start playing games.. and not be back for days. ;P | 06:47 |
| niel | mabye its broken on purpose | 06:48 |
| browndawg | What's a nice way of having apt-get install packages listed in a text file (one package per line) | 06:48 |
| niel | for the greater good | 06:48 |
| niel | browndawg, apt-get update the copy paste | 06:48 |
| Dr_Willis_ | browndawg: i just make a script that has lines of 'sudo apt-get install packagename package3name and so forth.... | 06:49 |
| browndawg | :-| | 06:49 |
| Dr_Willis_ | otherwise you have to use a script to read/install each package. | 06:49 |
| niel | debian is cool should run the server much faster | 06:49 |
| === jc_ is now known as anon4657 | ||
| browndawg | Yeah that's what I have too right now, Dr_Willis_, but I thought it would be neat to be able to read it from a separate file to avoid cluttering the install script | 06:49 |
| niel | browndawg, and I want to be rich | 06:49 |
| Dr_Willis_ | browndawg: xargs can do it i imagine | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | cat file | xargs <some options> | 06:50 |
| browndawg | yes but xargs is going to spawn a new apt-get proc | 06:50 |
| browndawg | for every arg | 06:50 |
| browndawg | can I make it so it's done in one go? | 06:50 |
| energizer | Hi my sound settings are not sticking. In particular "play sound through". | 06:50 |
| browndawg | apt-get install <all packages read from file> | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if you got 100000 lines of packages.. that may cause issues | 06:50 |
| niel | naaa | 06:51 |
| browndawg | less than a 100 | 06:51 |
| niel | ;) | 06:51 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if theres just 10 lines.. you can merge them all onto one line | 06:51 |
| browndawg | but 100 packages clutter up the install script | 06:51 |
| Dr_Willis_ | the bash buffer has a command line size limit | 06:51 |
| niel | I must stay awake to get this running! | 06:51 |
| niel | my eyes | 06:51 |
| browndawg | and my current vim setup hates more than 80 chars on a line :D | 06:51 |
| browndawg | so no neat way to do it I suppose. Thanks anyway. | 06:51 |
| browndawg | mmkay | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | you can use that bash feature of line continuation | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i forget the exact syntax. \ at the end of a line or somthing | 06:53 |
| browndawg | yeah | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sudo apt-get install package1 \ | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis_ | package2 \ | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis_ | or somthing like that. | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis_ | that Might work. | 06:53 |
| browndawg | or just group packages in the installer by their purpose. Build stuff, games, UI | 06:53 |
| jean_ | good morning, is someone good in coding in python? | 06:54 |
| Somefellow | Does anybody know what this means, E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. | 06:55 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Somefellow: do a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to have them upgrade | 06:55 |
| t38 | browndawg: how about sudo apt-get install $(cat files_to_install.txt) will work | 06:56 |
| Somefellow | I think aptitude fixed it | 06:56 |
| browndawg | t38: EXACTLY what I was looking for | 06:56 |
| browndawg | t38: Thanks man. | 06:56 |
| t38 | np | 06:57 |
| jean_ | someone to explain to me the logic behind def fct(s) : return s and 1 + fct(s[1:]) or 0 | 06:57 |
| jean_ | in python | 06:57 |
| Somefellow | Nah it didnt | 06:57 |
| Somefellow | Dr_Willis_, That command gives me 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 06:58 |
| browndawg | t38: It doesn't work in zsh for some reason. The array gets filled with $(x\ny\nz) | 06:58 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Somefellow: so whts the exact command that has teh issue | 06:58 |
| energizer | Any thoughts on how to get my sound settings to stick? | 06:58 |
| Dr_Willis_ | energizer: alsactrl store/restore perhaps | 06:59 |
| Somefellow | Dr_Willis_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6310620/ | 06:59 |
| t38 | browndawg: I think you can do this in synaptic too.. File - Read Markings and open your text file | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Somefellow: whens the last time you did a 'sudo apt-get update' ? | 07:01 |
| Somefellow | Hm I'm pretty sure I did it today, I'll go through the usual update upgrade stuff and let you know what happens | 07:02 |
| browndawg | t38: Want to do it without user interference, trying to load it into an array like you said | 07:02 |
| browndawg | or screw it | 07:02 |
| unbuntu | Hello all | 07:02 |
| Somefellow | Dr_Willis_, No change | 07:04 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Somefellow: somthings weird. libc is a rather critical library | 07:04 |
| Somefellow | Any idea what I should do? | 07:05 |
| t38 | browndawg: how about instead of $(cat files_to_install.txt) Use $(< files_to_install.txt) | 07:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | but its not the libc thats the stoppage.. its the g++ version that its having issues with it seems | 07:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | sudo apt-get -f perhaps? thats the 'hope it works fix' i often see | 07:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | build-essential is a meta package. it pulls in other packages. see ifyou can install libc6-dev by itself. same for g++ | 07:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !info libc-dev | 07:06 |
| ubottu | Package libc-dev does not exist in saucy | 07:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | hmmm | 07:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !info libc6-dev | 07:07 |
| ubottu | libc6-dev (source: eglibc): Embedded GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Header Files. In component main, is optional. Version 2.17-93ubuntu4 (saucy), package size 5389 kB, installed size 20639 kB | 07:07 |
| Somefellow | Dr_Willis_, libc6-dev : Depends: libc6 (= 2.15-0ubuntu10.5) but 2.15-0ubuntu10+openvz0 is to be installed | 07:08 |
| Dr_Willis_ | openvz.. hmm. this is a normal ubuntu install? or on some virtual thing or vps? | 07:08 |
| Somefellow | It's a VPS yes | 07:09 |
| Somefellow | Should I reinstall the OS and see what happens? | 07:09 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ive seen vps's twiddle with the packages - but no idea what would be best to try. | 07:10 |
| Somefellow | For a 1GB Ram server, would 32 bit or 64 bit be better? | 07:10 |
| Dr_Willis_ | im not sure it matters on a vps. | 07:10 |
| Somefellow | I've just always defaulted to 64x | 07:11 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i always use 64bit on my hardware. | 07:11 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ;) | 07:11 |
| energizer | Dr_Willis "store" to save and "restore" to recall? then set a script to run "restore" every time? | 07:11 |
| Somefellow | x86 is for weakings? | 07:11 |
| anoop | How to notify users crossing filesize limits specified by /et/security/limits.conf? | 07:11 |
| Dr_Willis_ | energizer: i recall the askubuntu.com site had details on doing it. ive never had to mess with the sound that way. | 07:12 |
| dfgas_ | anyone deal with xbmc and using hard drives for you videos and such? i am trying to use a 2tb hard drive, connected to my router or straight up to ouya and i get 10mb transfer speeds. however my 8gb flash drive is super fast. i am using samba | 07:13 |
| energizer | Dr_Willis_: aite thanks | 07:13 |
| dfgas_ | not 10mb, but 1.0 | 07:13 |
| anoop | edit /etc/security/limits.conf? | 07:14 |
| Somefellow | Dammit, fresh Ubuntu 12.04 still throws it | 07:14 |
| dfgas_ | ughhhh wrong button, lol | 07:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dfgas_: xbmc can access upnp servers on the server also. so samba is not required | 07:18 |
| dfgas_ | Dr_Willis_, but i want to put videos on it | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis_ | could be the network is the bottle neck, or it might in fact be samba. | 07:18 |
| dfgas_ | and stream over my network | 07:18 |
| Somefellow | W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.201 80] | 07:19 |

| tnk1 | Can anyone help me get the twinview to work with the nvidia settings/ i updated to 12.10, and now the dual head setup I had isn't working - just showing duplicate screens in both | 07:19 |
| dfgas_ | hmmm | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dfgas_: err... what do you think a upnp server does.. ;) | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !natty | 07:19 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) was the fourteenth release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on 2012-10-28, see http://ubottu.com/y/natty for details. | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !eol | Somefellow | 07:19 |
| ubottu | Somefellow: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | but that is weird. | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | looking at the server here Somefellow .. lets see | 07:19 |
| dfgas_ | Dr_Willis_, well problem is that even connected straight to my ouya and i get poor transfer speeds on my 2tb | 07:19 |
| Somefellow | Ok, so 12.04 is broken for me, and 11.04 doesnt work anymore | 07:20 |
| Somefellow | I'm enjoying today | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Somefellow: its 404 here also | 07:20 |
| dfgas_ | Dr_Willis_, but my 8gb gets awesome speeds | 07:20 |
| paulus68_1 | Somefellow: you can enlighten your day by upgrading to th enew version :) | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis_ | theres no natty at all on that server Somefellow | 07:20 |
| Somefellow | Host only offers 12.04 and 11.04 D: | 07:21 |
| Dr_Willis_ | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ | 07:21 |
| Dr_Willis_ | wonder if theres an EOL-EOL server. ;) | 07:21 |
| Dr_Willis_ | or some other archive.ubuntu.com servers | 07:21 |
| * Somefellow sighs | 07:21 | |
| Somefellow | Maybe its time to give CentOS another go | 07:21 |
| Somefellow | After 3 years... | 07:21 |
| Dr_Willis_ | weird that lucid is there.. but not natty | 07:21 |
| tnk1 | Can anyone help me get the twinview to work with the nvidia settings/ i updated to 12.10, and now the dual head setup I had isn't working - just showing duplicate screens in both | 07:28 |
| Dr_Willis_ | tnk1: does nvidia-settings show you are using the nvidia drivers? | 07:29 |
| tnk1 | 304.88 | 07:29 |
| tnk1 | Dr_Willis_: 304.88 | 07:29 |
| tnk1 | nv-control 1.28 | 07:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | so the x server dispkay config in the ncidia-settings tool dosent show both monitors? | 07:30 |
| tnk1 | it shows both. i select twinview and position left of primary screen. but the second (left) screen still shows the same as the primary (right) screen. | 07:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | tnk1: you saved the settingg to the xorg.conf file? | 07:31 |
| tnk1 | it was working fine before I did the last dist-upgrade an hour ago | 07:31 |
| tnk1 | it blacks and refreshes the screen, and it's nothing different, so why would i save a dysfunctional setting to xorg conf? | 07:31 |
| Dr_Willis_ | because you may need to restart the x server to get it to read and use the setting | 07:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if it fails.. you remove the xorg.conf | 07:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ive rarely had 'apply' work properly. ive always saved to xorg.conf and restarted the x server | 07:32 |
| oeslian | Hey Dr_Willis_ I want to thank you for the tip to look up bumblebee it worked great | 07:33 |
| Dr_Willis_ | if i dont have an xorg.conf and just plug in the 2nd monitor.. it gets auto-enabled here for me most of the time | 07:33 |
| Dr_Willis_ | oeslian: you are lucky it works ;) its very very much a work in progress. | 07:33 |
| tnk1 | Dr_Willis_: what's the cli command to restart X? | 07:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | tnk1: sudo service lightdm restart from a console is what i normally use | 07:35 |
| oeslian | The main thing i wanted was to be able to work on my game, it compiled and ran great | 07:35 |
| tnk1 | I'm not sure I'm using lightdm | 07:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | then use whatever dm you got. ;) | 07:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | lightdm is the default for ubuntu, lubuntu, xubuntu, and ubuntu-gnome... | 07:36 |
| Dr_Willis_ | guess he was using lightdm... | 07:36 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ;P | 07:36 |
| oeslian | haha | 07:37 |
| oeslian | I will stick around here see if I can help anyone else I guess | 07:37 |

I installed Ubuntu 13.10 alongisde Win8(preinstalled) and both systems are running without problems. However, I have problem with second graphic card(Nvidia 740M), as Ubuntu doesn't recognize it. I installed bumblebee with this tutorial https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee#Installation, but I still get error "Cannot acce | 08:22 |

| Psil0Cybin | hey guys a quick question with xubuntu : i found a problem when change the opicity setting in windows manager for the popup windowsnothing changes, i want to make my right click menu transparent all other windows are transparent but that one thing | 08:23 |
| Snyper | ok | 08:23 |

| Mace268 | make sure you have full paths in the command Strit. It sounds like it's erroring out | 10:31 |
| dakotawulfy | Strit get the name of the command from the icon cut and past in terminal and see what error you are getting | 10:31 |
| Strit | Mace268, the paths are full and the script works if I run it by it self. | 10:32 |

| Mace268 | Strit, full paths in your script too? | 10:33 |
| dakotawulfy | strit did u make it executable | 10:33 |
| racho | bela, as i said your card is *NOT* supported by the fglrx in 13.10 so it won't work with the binary drivers you've installed | 10:34 |
| bela | so what can i do? | 10:34 |
| racho | bela, you should remove them and use the open source driver | 10:34 |
| bela | but when you tun the terminal you can write in it | 10:34 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, it is executable. I've done the same with other .desktop files that work. This one just doesn't for some reason. | 10:34 |
| bela | what is open source? | 10:35 |
| racho | bela, as a start you can run this: sudo apt-get purge fgrlx* and then after it finishes reboot your machine | 10:36 |
| dakotawulfy | Strit need to run in terminal to see what error you have | 10:36 |
| dakotawulfy | that will give u and ideal where to find the problem | 10:36 |

| Mrokii | Hello. Can somebody recommend a video editor where I don't have to create a project before simply trying to cut out a section of an avi? I tried Pitivi and OpenShot and couldn't even figure out how to select a section to cut it out. And Avidemux isn't available as a package for Ubuntu at the moment, as it seems. | 10:38 |
| Mace268 | strit you can set terminal not to close when finished | 10:38 |
| racho | bela, go to a VT console. Ctrl + Alt + F3 for example and run the command there | 10:38 |
| Malachi | Strit: Is it the spaces in the Icon line? | 10:39 |
| gordonjcp | Mrokii: Openshot or KDEnlive | 10:39 |
| Mrokii | gordonjcp: As I said, I tried Openshot and couldn't figure out how to select a section to delete it. | 10:39 |
| Mace268 | Strit, open terminal then go to edit > profile prefs then look under title and command and set "When command exits" to hold the terminal open. then you can see the output.. | 10:40 |

| === devil is now known as Guest18556 | ||
| racho | bela, what do you mean can write in it? | 11:11 |
| dakotawulfy | then all you have to do is is for the command battlenet.sh | 11:11 |
| bela | i open terminal and when i hit the keyboard dosent do aniting | 11:12 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, the script itself is in /home/strit and is executable. So there is no quotes in the line for the command. Only for the one to show the icon, because the icon is in a folder in wine. | 11:12 |
| bekks | bela: Can you write somewhere else, at all? | 11:14 |
| bela | here i can | 11:14 |
| dakotawulfy | strit right so if u execute it from there it works right ?? | 11:14 |
| bela | i can | 11:15 |
| bela | i have created new folder | 11:15 |
| bekks | bela: And where is "here"? Another computer you are at? Or the same computer where you cant write in terminal? | 11:15 |

| Eduard_Munteanu | Argh, Debian doesn't provide a Ubuntu keyring package either. | 11:17 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, alright. Moving the icon and changing the path to the new one, which is without quotes, makes the icon appear. But still the same with the terminal when running the .desktop file. | 11:17 |

| racho | Strit, of course it will. but when runned from a .desktop file the env vars may get messed up | 11:27 |
| Strit | racho, didn't there was a difference to how it runs the scripts. Just thought it did the same as a "sh". | 11:28 |
| dakotawulfy | Strit so wich one works right the battle.net ?? | 11:30 |
| bela | ? | 11:30 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, neverwinter.sh works fine within the .desktop. battlenet.sh does not within .desktop. | 11:30 |
| dakotawulfy | ok | 11:30 |
| bela | good luck using linux | 11:30 |

| === magnet_ is now known as magnet | ||
| dakotawulfy | strit not finding the dir | 11:57 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | bekks: yeah, that works, but I wanted to check stronger hashes. Well, assuming the PGP signature digest algo is stronger than MD5. :) | 11:58 |
| === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off | ||
| Eduard_Munteanu | They should really post fingerprints on a protected wiki page. | 12:00 |
| Strit | Well, it does start up the agent.exe one, but does not launch battle.net.exe | 12:00 |
| OerHeks | Eduard_Munteanu, the md5 hashes are on a protected page > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes | 12:01 |
| dakotawulfy | Strit look at that does that help?? | 12:02 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | OerHeks: yeah, I know, that's what I meant by protected page | 12:02 |
| agronholm | hi, can someone point out to me how to install the latest coffeescript on ubuntu 13.10? | 12:02 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | But the GPG keys aren't verifiable in any way AFAIK, unless you already run Ubuntu. Even Debian doesn't have a keyring package for it. :( | 12:03 |
| dakotawulfy | strit thats what u need | 12:03 |
| racho | Strit, i suspect because your cwd is not where you think it is. give the absolute path to battle.net.exe | 12:03 |
| === mathisen is now known as Mathisen | ||
| MonkeyDust | agronholm it's in the repos, use apt-get or the software manager to install it | 12:04 |
| agronholm | MonkeyDust: nope, that gives me coffeescript 1.4.0 | 12:04 |
| agronholm | not the latest (1.6.3) | 12:04 |
| agronholm | 1.4.0 does not support source maps | 12:04 |
| === njin is now known as fabiooo | ||
| MonkeyDust | agronholm then you need a ppa or external .deb, but that's not supprted here | 12:04 |
| agronholm | is there one? | 12:04 |
| agronholm | a ppa or external .deb? | 12:05 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, did not help. :) | 12:05 |
| agronholm | I tried installing it via npm but that didn't work out -- it wasn't finding the "node" command | 12:05 |
| Strit | racho, path to it is: /home/strit/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Battle.net/battle.net.exe | 12:05 |
| dakotawulfy | strit go to terminal see if it find the dir | 12:06 |
| dakotawulfy | like i did | 12:06 |
| racho | agronholm, because the guys at ubuntu named it nodejs | 12:06 |
| racho | you can install it via npm and at the bin directory of coffeescript change the executable from /usr/env/node to /usr/env/nodjs | 12:07 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, it can. Just cd'd into it using quotes for "Program Files (x86)" and "Battle.net". | 12:07 |
| racho | agronholm, or make a symlink from /bin/nodejs to /bin/node | 12:07 |
| dakotawulfy | strit ok now in the script change your line to it that and save it | 12:08 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, done. Still doesn't work. :( | 12:09 |
| dakotawulfy | ok | 12:09 |
| jrtappers | Is there a way to allow "Play to" on tablets to play music on ubuntu, WMP has an allow remote control option that does this | 12:09 |
| dakotawulfy | strit see if script still works | 12:10 |
| dakotawulfy | in terminal | 12:10 |
| agronholm | racho: ok that worked, thanks | 12:10 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, it works when I do ./battlenet.sh from home dir. :) | 12:10 |
| racho | agronholm, you're welcome | 12:10 |
| dakotawulfy | ok | 12:11 |
| dakotawulfy | strit no try under icon for the command /home/strit/.wine/drive_c/"Program Files (x86)"/"Battle.net"/ | 12:12 |
| dakotawulfy | strit wait messed up | 12:13 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, the icon works fine with my .desktop file now, after I moved it to /home/strit/.icons/ | 12:13 |
| dakotawulfy | so is it working ??? | 12:13 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, yes, the icon is showing fine for the .desktop file. But the script it should run doesn't run. :) | 12:13 |
| Guil | Guys, you know if I want to boot Ubuntu from my USB and only want to try it (using the trial feature) will that make any modifications to my PC at all? | 12:14 |
| Guil | Or will it just allow me to try the OS without any alterations? | 12:14 |
| dakotawulfy | ok imeant the command for the icon | 12:14 |
| jrtappers | Guil, That should make no changes | 12:14 |
| dakotawulfy | to ecute | 12:14 |
| dakotawulfy | execute | 12:14 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, you mean a command to execute the .desktop file? | 12:14 |
| dakotawulfy | not the path for the icon | 12:14 |
| Guil | jrtappers and to finish using the trial is it just as simple as restarting the PC without the USB in? | 12:14 |
| dakotawulfy | strit | 12:14 |
| Guil | And then everything is back to normal? | 12:15 |
| jrtappers | Guil, Yes, if it is a live CD | 12:15 |
| dakotawulfy | i dont like .desktop files | 12:15 |
| jrtappers | *Live USB | 12:15 |
| dakotawulfy | i make all my scripts and put them into /usr/bin | 12:15 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, well, that's what I'm using. | 12:15 |
| fishcooker | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6311906/ | 12:16 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, I like having icons to press in my Unity bar for easy acces, instead of running commands from terminal all the time. :) | 12:16 |
| dakotawulfy | strit i think it harder | 12:16 |
| fishcooker | what is the meaning of "S1" | 12:16 |
| Strit | dakotawulfy, It's only been harder with Battle.net. The others worl flawlessly. | 12:16 |
| MonkeyDust | fishcooker sl means sleep | 12:16 |
| dakotawulfy | yea can see i kinda little out of date u dont use unity | 12:16 |
| dakotawulfy | dont like it | 12:17 |
| jrtappers | Any ideas for DNLA play to? | 12:17 |
| dakotawulfy | ok | 12:17 |
| fishcooker | it means dont those transmissioncli is not active, MonkeyDust | 12:17 |
| fishcooker | ? | 12:17 |
| dakotawulfy | strit let try something still not working right ?? | 12:18 |
| Guil | When trying to put the ISO on to my USB to make it bootable, which version of Ubuntu 12.04 should I choose? I'm not sure which differentiates each of them, I just know it was 12.04 LTS that I DL'd from the website | 12:20 |
| Guil | http://gyazo.com/f7c127206b8025b0fdfa30889f4a357f | 12:20 |
| MonkeyDust | Guil http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop | 12:21 |
| OerHeks | Guil, take the 12.04.3 > http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ | 12:21 |
| Guil | Check the Gyazo link I posted, I'm trying to use PendriveLinux to put on to my USB | 12:21 |
| OerHeks | saves some time updating | 12:22 |
| Guil | http://gyazo.com/f7c127206b8025b0fdfa30889f4a357f | 12:22 |
| jrtappers | Guil, You can download from the site and then click browse | 12:22 |
| jrtappers | That way you get the one from the site, but instead of Universal Boot Installer I would probably recommend YUMI, I find it a bit better | 12:23 |
| jrtappers | http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/ | 12:23 |
| Guil | But you know on the drop down list of distros on UBI, what is the difference between "Desktop i386", "Desktop amd64", "DVD i386" and "DVD amd64" | 12:24 |
| jrtappers | i386 = 32 bit, amd64 = 64 bit | 12:25 |
| reisio | dvd = more than you need | 12:25 |
| Guil | So if I've got the 64 bit I should go for Desktop amd64 | 12:25 |
| Guil | Thanks | 12:25 |
| reisio | yup | 12:26 |
| jrtappers | Yes | 12:26 |

| mikolaj_ | I can't tell if the ubuntu on/off switches means something is turned on or off | 12:35 |
| subz3r0 | --> /join #ubuntu-br | 12:35 |
| DaemonicApathy | mikolaj_: If you see "On", it's on. | 12:35 |
| DaemonicApathy | Also, it is usually orange in that case. | 12:36 |
| mikolaj_ | but the switch is in the opposite position of the label | 12:39 |
| mikolaj_ | so if I put the switch in the "OFF" position, then the button says ON | 12:40 |
| DaemonicApathy | What it says is an indicator, not a target. | 12:40 |
| WIlli-Smith | please how can I set root folder on apache 2.4? | 12:41 |
| DaemonicApathy | mikolaj_: So, by default, switch to the right = On, switch to the left = Off. | 12:41 |
| reisio | WIlli-Smith: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/httpd.html | 12:41 |
| reisio | oh 2.4, hrmm | 12:42 |
| reisio | WIlli-Smith: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#documentroot | 12:42 |
| mikolaj_ | it's poorly designed in any case | 12:42 |
| ndroftheline | hi can someone tell me what the boot flag is to do a media integrity check? it's not on my menu because i used yumi to make my bootable usb | 12:42 |
| shafeeq | does ubuntu on a fresh install contain 'unity' package? | 12:42 |
| DaemonicApathy | shafeeq: As of 11.04, yes. | 12:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | WIlli-Smith: DocumentRoot | 12:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | WIlli-Smith: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#documentroot | 12:43 |
| reisio | hitsujiTMO: you for real? :p | 12:43 |
| shafeeq | DaemonicApathy, is it any different if i remove and then install it? i tried installing cinnamon, somehow unity was removed. i reinstalled it and now it's too slow | 12:44 |
| WIlli-Smith | the problem is when I want to change root folder from /var/www to /home/william/http , in browser error 403 will show | 12:44 |
| reisio | ndroftheline: media? | 12:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | reisio: lol sorry, concentrating on something else :P | 12:44 |
| reisio | hitsujiTMO: booze I bet! :p | 12:44 |
| reisio | which reminds me... | 12:44 |
| ndroftheline | reisio: yeah to check the integrity of the installation media | 12:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | reisio: unfortunately not | 12:44 |
| ndroftheline | yeah sorry i meant intstallation media integrity check | 12:44 |
| reisio | ndroftheline: before imaging? | 12:44 |
| ndroftheline | reisio: before installation | 12:45 |
| DaemonicApathy | shafeeq: That depends on what else is running, and if anything made to work with Unity is missing. | 12:45 |
| reisio | ndroftheline: but after imaging? That'd be neat if there were such a flag | 12:45 |
| hitsujiTMO | WIlli-Smith: did you give permissions with the Directory directive? | 12:45 |
| ndroftheline | reisio: yeah, burn a ubuntu cdrom and it will give you three options on booting live, run live, install, and media check | 12:45 |
| shafeeq | DaemonicApathy, compiz seems to take much of the cpu. | 12:45 |
| reisio | oh neat | 12:45 |
| ndroftheline | reisio: i used yumi to make a bootable usb instead of burning a cd (no optical) but yumi eliminated the last entry, so i can't use it | 12:46 |
| reisio | shafeeq: don't have to use it | 12:46 |
| leif_ | what is the name of the libery that allow playing dvd in eu | 12:46 |
| ndroftheline | i want to know the boot flag to start a media check from the livecd | 12:46 |
| reisio | ndroftheline: mmm, there might be two menus, one from yumi and one from the install media, seen that before | 12:46 |
| ndroftheline | installation media* check | 12:46 |
| shafeeq | reisio, compiz | 12:46 |
| reisio | leif_: libdvdread? libdvdcss? | 12:46 |
| reisio | shafeeq: compiz | 12:46 |
| shafeeq | reisio, compiz?* | 12:46 |
| reisio | shafeeq: compiz?* | 12:47 |
| reisio | shafeeq: what about it? | 12:47 |
| leif_ | gonna try those | 12:47 |
| reisio | leif_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | 12:47 |
| leif_ | :) | 12:47 |
| shafeeq | reisio, you mean, i can use unity without compiz? | 12:47 |
| WIlli-Smith | I guess there is a permission problem but I dont know how config it | 12:47 |
| reisio | shafeeq: technically yes, but you might want to not use both | 12:47 |
| reisio | shafeeq: Xfce can get you all the same appearances, except possibly the global menu, dunno about that | 12:47 |
| WIlli-Smith | what is Directory derective | 12:47 |
| reisio | WIlli-Smith: maybe you should talk to #httpd | 12:48 |
| hitsujiTMO | WIlli-Smith: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#directory read the docs | 12:48 |
| tvillerealest | im new to this type stuff (programming) will yall be able to help me f i need help with something? | 12:49 |
| reisio | tvillerealest: yup | 12:49 |
| shafeeq | DaemonicApathy, the default unity works without compiz? | 12:50 |
| reisio | shafeeq: there's another version that doesn't use compiz | 12:50 |
| WIlli-Smith | ok, but I dont understatd why apache run under root hasnt permissiont to open user's folder ~/http | 12:50 |
| DaemonicApathy | shafeeq: Never tried it that way - I don't use Unity, personally. | 12:50 |
| reisio | but unity without compiz is just three ordinary panels, you can get that from almost any DE | 12:50 |
| shafeeq | reisio, how can i get it? | 12:50 |
| reisio | shafeeq: unity-2d | 12:51 |
| Lartza | Hmm.. I'm removing nginx and php5 to do a clean LAMP install but for some reason apache2-mpm-prefork and apache2.2-common get marked for install in the remove? | 12:53 |
| j_elly | hi | 12:53 |
| === scruss is now known as scruss_ | ||
| bekks | Lartza: Then remove everything that requires apache. | 12:54 |
| chro | my keyboard is not working after upgrading to ubuntu 13.10. What can I do? | 12:54 |
| Lartza | bekks, It seems something requires php5 and if that is removed it requires apache? (probably php5-common vs apache2.2-common?) | 12:54 |
| Lartza | But I don't know what | 12:54 |
| cfhowlett | j_elly, greetings | 12:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | WIlli-Smith: its an internal permission thing for security, so if you're running a dodgy php app, it does not have permission to ... lets say ... pass your credentials or ssh keys, or ssl keys and certs, or anything else that should not be blindly given access to. It protects your server from some vulnerabilities in your php apps. again i must say tho, read the docs. you should not really be blindly configging apache as its too easy to open | 12:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | up security holes with the wrong config. | 12:55 |
| tvillerealest | There is no 64-bit install for skype is there? | 12:55 |
| reisio | tvillerealest: should be | 12:55 |
| bekks | Lartza: It seems more like php5 requires a webserver, either ngibx or apache. | 12:55 |
| j_elly | hi <cfhowlett> | 12:56 |
| hitsujiTMO | tvillerealest: i think its a multiarch installer | 12:56 |
| tvillerealest | hitsujiTMO: Thats on the skype website? | 12:56 |
| reisio | tvillerealest: probably, but there should be a .deb | 12:57 |
| hitsujiTMO | tvillerealest: yup | 12:57 |
| reisio | tvillerealest: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype | 12:57 |
| tvillerealest | thanks guys | 12:57 |
| hitsujiTMO | tvillerealest: there's 10.04 32bit or 12.04 multiarch | 12:57 |
| tvillerealest | hitsujiTMO: i tried the 32-bit the other day it wouldnt work | 12:58 |
| SpineEyE | I have a question: when typing "git commit -a" i get into git's vi editor. when i then press escape and type in ":q", something about lisp debug mode shows up. I can not close vi | 13:00 |
| Lartza | bekks, I only have php5-common and php5-cli now, removing cli marks 'apache2-mpm-prefork apache2.2-common libapache2-mod-php5 php5' for install and common is dependency of cli | 13:00 |
| bekks | Lartza: Then uninstall php5-common and php5-cli ... | 13:01 |
| Lartza | that tells me that libapache2-mod-php5 needs common but is not marked for install | 13:01 |
| SpineEyE | can someone help me close the editor? | 13:01 |
| chro | my keyboard is not working after upgrading to ubuntu 13.10. What can I do? | 13:01 |
| reisio | SpineEyE: :q | 13:01 |
| reisio | SpineEyE: do it again | 13:02 |
| Lartza | phpmailer... solved :) | 13:03 |
| SpineEyE | http://i.imgur.com/zxqGPy6.png | 13:05 |
| SpineEyE | http://i.imgur-com/zxgGPy6.png | 13:05 |
| reisio | http://www.i.imgur.com/zxgGPy6.png perhapse? | 13:05 |
| SpineEyE | http://i.imgur.com/zxgGPy6.png sorry, this is it | 13:06 |
| reisio | SpineEyE: did you try :q again? | 13:06 |
| SpineEyE | i can't type anything | 13:06 |
| SpineEyE | only ESC gets me out | 13:06 |
| SpineEyE | gets this message away | 13:07 |
| SpineEyE | and then im back in editing mode | 13:07 |
| reisio | :q quits | 13:07 |
| SpineEyE | :q brings this picture up | 13:07 |
| SpineEyE | in normal vi i can quit | 13:07 |
| reisio | SpineEyE: sure you don't have capslock on or something? | 13:07 |
| reisio | this isn't normal vi? | 13:07 |
| SpineEyE | only in git vi it's like htis | 13:07 |
| reisio | ah | 13:07 |
| reisio | what about :q! or :cq | 13:08 |
| reisio | or SHIFT+zz | 13:08 |
| SpineEyE | doesn't work | 13:09 |
| SpineEyE | shit+zz just types in ZZ | 13:10 |
| reisio | SpineEyE: you have capslock on | 13:10 |
| SpineEyE | no | 13:10 |
| reisio | LIES! | 13:10 |
| SpineEyE | with capslock it types in zz | 13:10 |
| reisio | can you close the window? | 13:10 |
| SpineEyE | yes | 13:10 |
| SpineEyE | i can just do git commit -a -m "bla" | 13:11 |
| SpineEyE | but without -m it's broken | 13:11 |
| reisio | well I'd talk to #git about that | 13:11 |
| SpineEyE | ok | 13:11 |
| SpineEyE | i try there | 13:11 |
| SpineEyE | thanks | 13:11 |
| reisio | or tell it to use another editor, which is almost certainly an option | 13:11 |
| gordonjcp | SpineEyE: "broken" in what sense? | 13:12 |
| SpineEyE | how to do that? | 13:12 |
| SpineEyE | well i can't insert any command | 13:12 |
| reisio | what's echo $EDITOR say? | 13:12 |
| SpineEyE | oh thats maybe the problem :D | 13:13 |
| SpineEyE | emacs -nw | 13:13 |
| reisio | huh | 13:13 |
| reisio | I admit I haven't used Emacs in so long | 13:13 |
| gordonjcp | SpineEyE: it uses nano by default, or the contents of $EDITOR otherwise | 13:13 |
| reisio | but it does make sense, re: Lisp | 13:13 |
| reisio | so yeah, probably Emacs and not vi/m at all, heh | 13:14 |
| reisio | SpineEyE: CTRL+x, CTRL+c then | 13:14 |
| SpineEyE | thank you :D | 13:14 |

| Vivekananda | hello eveyrone. reisio howdy. If I already have windows and ubuntu 12.04 and I want to reinstall windows it will overwrite the grub | 13:18 |
| Vivekananda | how do I save an restore it ? | 13:18 |
| tvillerealest | does anyone know how to install multiarch? | 13:18 |
| reisio | Vivekananda: from your Ubuntu install media | 13:18 |
| reisio | Vivekananda: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 13:18 |
| reisio | tvillerealest: install what? | 13:18 |
| tvillerealest | MultiArch | 13:19 |
| reisio | Vivekananda: 2nd option there | 13:19 |
| k1l_ | tvillerealest: multiarch is not something you install. its already included in ubuntu | 13:19 |
| tvillerealest | oh | 13:19 |
| tvillerealest | i feel dumb now | 13:19 |
| reisio | tvillerealest: :) | 13:19 |
| k1l_ | tvillerealest: no need to. | 13:19 |
| razzledazzle | hello guys, is it possible to edit windows boot entries from Ubuntu? | 13:20 |
| razzledazzle | I locked myself out of Windows | 13:20 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: to what end | 13:20 |
| tvillerealest | im new to this so ur gonna have to cut me some slack | 13:20 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: locked? | 13:20 |
| bekks | razzledazzle: define "locked out" please. | 13:20 |
| razzledazzle | I'll explain | 13:20 |
| * reisio gets popped corn | 13:20 | |
| * rypervenche grabs a handfull. | 13:20 | |
| razzledazzle | I installed crunchbang, the installer did its thing with GRUB2, it was normal | 13:20 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: ooh | 13:21 |
| razzledazzle | however, when it booted Windows 7 boot menu showed up | 13:21 |
| bekks | razzledazzle: What does "locked out of windows"? | 13:21 |
| k1l_ | tvillerealest: if you have some issues just ask specific questions with details in here :) | 13:21 |
| reisio | a boot menu when you booted? That sounds awful | 13:21 |
| razzledazzle | and there was no crunchbang to be seen just windows options | 13:21 |
| bekks | *mean | 13:21 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: does windows boot? | 13:21 |
| razzledazzle | yes, it does | 13:21 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: okay, sounds like your grub.cfg is just off | 13:21 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: boot a live OS and come back here | 13:22 |
| tvillerealest | Ok in that case, do i have to enable multiarch. Im using unity does that make a difference? | 13:22 |
| razzledazzle | I continued with Windows and then added Crunchbang with EasyBCD | 13:22 |
| k1l_ | razzledazzle: just ask the crunchbang support what they changed that could cause this problem | 13:22 |
| razzledazzle | its a Linux thing, it should be solvable | 13:22 |
| reisio | tvillerealest: multiarch means dealing with more than one arch, it's not something you have to opt into or be aware of afaik | 13:22 |
| k1l_ | razzledazzle: or ask in ##linux | 13:22 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: easybcd still needs grub functioning properly | 13:23 |
| Vivekananda | reisio: after installing it on the boot cd it does not recommend to first create a boot backup | 13:23 |
| razzledazzle | Let me explain guys, the weird part is that when I chose Crunchbang on the boot selection, GRUB2 would show up with Windows there | 13:23 |
| k1l_ | tvillerealest: multiarch is enabled by default. so if you install something its already in mulltiarch | 13:23 |
| UrielVigilant | wich app i should use to synch ubuntu 13.10 and my tablet android icecream sanwich ? | 13:23 |
| reisio | Vivekananda: so? | 13:23 |
| subz3r0 | UrielVigilant: rsync | 13:23 |
| tvillerealest | that makes sense | 13:23 |
| razzledazzle | so I thought if I choose Windows in that GRUB2 menu, Windows would normally start and I set the Windows boot selection wait time to 0 | 13:23 |
| reisio | razzledazzle: it's weird, you need to fix your grub cfg | 13:24 |
| Vivekananda | reisio: so where is the backup created which will be restored | 13:24 |
| UrielVigilant | subz3r0: thank you | 13:24 |
| reisio | UrielVigilant: sync what exactly? | 13:24 |
| k1l_ | razzledazzle: ask the crunchbang support! | 13:24 |
| reisio | Vivekananda: you don't really need a backup | 13:24 |
| razzledazzle | okay, I shut up | 13:24 |
| razzledazzle | thanks guys. | 13:24 |
| UrielVigilant | reisio: synch data and apps etc . . | 13:24 |
| Vivekananda | really ? but I remember that earlier versions of ubutu required to create a back up and restore it | 13:24 |
| reisio | UrielVigilant: try andftp, you can use it with sshd (on Ubuntu) | 13:25 |
| reisio | over wireless | 13:25 |
| Vivekananda | grub 1 mostly | 13:25 |
| bekks | Vivekananda: No, grub 1 never required that. | 13:25 |

| UrielVigilant | reisio: what it is sshd ? | 13:25 |
| subz3r0 | reisio: pretty nice app. especialla the ADS inside | 13:25 |
| subz3r0 | sshDaemon | 13:25 |
| reisio | UrielVigilant: sshd is the ssh daemon, it's the ordinary way to access Unix systems remotely | 13:25 |
| reisio | subz3r0: what? | 13:25 |
| subz3r0 | reisio: like i said... pretty nice app... especially the ADS ... | 13:26 |
| UrielVigilant | reisio: kind of - sudo apt-get install andftp ? | 13:26 |
| reisio | subz3r0: what do you like about ads? | 13:26 |
| reisio | UrielVigilant: andftp would be for and-roid | 13:26 |
| reisio | and sshd for ubuntu | 13:26 |
| UrielVigilant | reisio: thank you | 13:27 |
| subz3r0 | reisio: you didnt get it, do you? | 13:27 |
| reisio | subz3r0: not yet | 13:27 |
| subz3r0 | andsmb, and ftp is crap! | 13:27 |
| subz3r0 | andftp | 13:27 |
| reisio | it's not crap, does exactly what it says it does | 13:27 |
| subz3r0 | reisio: so any reason why not using rync? | 13:27 |
| reisio | and I don't recall any ads, either | 13:28 |
| reisio | subz3r0: why not using rsync on android? | 13:28 |
| subz3r0 | reisio: thats maybe because your phone is rooted and youre using a firewall | 13:28 |
| reisio | subz3r0: maybe in a world other than this one | 13:28 |
| reisio | android is about ads, though | 13:28 |
| reisio | so I'm sure he's used to them, even though andftp hasn't any IME | 13:29 |

| reisio | ah bada | 13:34 |
| reisio | UrielVigilant: it depends on the hardware and more importantly whether it has any secure boot | 13:34 |
| reisio | g105b: no, you'd have to reboot | 13:34 |
| k1l_ | UrielVigilant: for ubuntu-touch questions better ask in #ubuntu-touch | 13:34 |

| Lisa201 | I mean on my own system... | 13:53 |
| Lisa201 | I was running Kubuntu, and it was nice, so I thought I'd try the standard 13.10 | 13:53 |
| cfhowlett | Lisa201, my crystal ball says ... no details, no analysis | 13:53 |
| Lisa201 | Just loggin in takes what seems forever now. | 13:53 |

| k1l_ | Lisa201: this is a technical support channel. so if you have a specific support question ask it. dont misuse this channel for ranting | 13:55 |

| k1l_ | Lisa201: so its a hybrid laptop? did you install bumblebee? | 14:01 |

| kaun | Guest61630: How do i select my drive? i only have one :-) | 14:02 |
| cfhowlett | kaun, yep THAT is a windows error message. If you're getting THAT on selecting ubuntu then something somewhere failed. | 14:02 |
| simbo | get the sourcecode to my local machine to optimize some stuff. As it's just a test, I don't want to use launchpad (cause my modifications will probably not be very useful to others) | 14:02 |
| Guest61630 | nothing to do with windows or ubuntu | 14:02 |
| k1l_ | Lisa201: if you have a intel and a nvidia card you need bumblebee if you dont set to one video card only in the bios | 14:02 |
| v | ok. | 14:02 |
| Lisa201 | Ya, my bios doesn't have the slection, so I just use the Intel side. | 14:03 |
| cfhowlett | kaun, easy way to test:make another ubuntu USB and try again. | 14:03 |
| kaun | Okay i though so.. Do you nice guys maybe have a soloution for a problem like this? | 14:03 |
| Lisa201 | I'm not complaining about the graphics, just how long programs take to load etc. | 14:03 |
| Guest61630 | kaun, after you press f7 when booting, you can choose (with the arrows) to boot your machine from the disk or from your cd rom drive or usb drive etc. | 14:03 |
| k1l_ | Lisa201: that can be a symptome of wrong video drivers | 14:03 |
| MonkeyDust | simbo use apt-get source to get the source code | 14:03 |
| cfhowlett | Lisa201, xubuntu and lubuntu are "lighter" and would probably speed things along. Not quite so much eye candy though | 14:04 |
| kaun | Cfhowlett: should i pyt the file onto a usb? | 14:04 |
| yeats | simbo: see 'man apt-get' source section for details | 14:04 |
| Lisa201 | ok, maybe the intel one changed from 12.10 and the other distro's I've used. | 14:04 |
| Guest61630 | if you get the problem you mention, then your cd rom drive is faulty | 14:04 |
| kaun | Guest: No i dont get that options | 14:04 |
| kaun | It just says what i told wrote you before :-) | 14:04 |
| cfhowlett | !usb|kaun, "put the file"? ooookay, you need to create a bootable USB | 14:04 |

| kaun | Windows 7 | 14:06 |
| Guest61630 | yes kaun, try again, press f7 untill you get options | 14:07 |

| cfhowlett | cipherboy, ow. OK, good description! Ask also on #ubuntu-server if no solution in this channel | 14:21 |
| everald | I guess the answer is no. | 14:21 |

| ddshore | I'm trying to resize an encrypted partition, but the instructions I'm following (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions) changed from using 5G to 5.6G. Does anyone know if this change is accidental? | 14:23 |
| aadeesh | Hello. I installed 13.10 AMD64 dual booting with Windows 7 64bit. The wallpaper remains only black and is not changed from Appearance settings. The wallpaper is updated on the lock screen but not when logged in. Any help? | 14:23 |

| sha1sum | chro: hmmm... You might be looking at bugs that are not the same as the ones you're experiencing. Might be the same, or might not, but you'd need to get some debug information *while booted into* the broken kernel, and the only way I can think of to do that is to find an external keyboard to use. | 14:25 |

| cuddylier | Is it possible to zip multiple files into a single zip archive? | 14:30 |
| cuddylier | I can only find the command to zip a folder or a single file | 14:30 |
| cfhowlett | cuddylier, of course! | 14:30 |
| cuddylier | How would I do it? I can't find the command anywhere on google | 14:30 |
| aadeesh | sha1sum: I'll check that. But I faced a similar problem with 12.04.3 but that got resolved by chown my \home. | 14:31 |
| cipherboy | Currently installing the latest 3.12.0 and 3.11.6 kernels off the ppa. | 14:32 |
| jack | cuddylier, zip fullpath/bla fullpath/blurp | 14:32 |
| cuddylier | Would that zip only the files inside that path rather than all the folders as well? | 14:32 |
| jack | gives youoe .zip with bothfiles | 14:32 |
| sha1sum | cuddylier: I just took a look on the man page for the zip command and it looks like "zip -u" (-u for update) | 14:32 |

| sha1sum | cuddylier: or possibly "zip -g" for "grow" | 14:33 |
| sha1sum | I'm assuming -g just adds the files and -u will add files and update any of them that already exist and have been modified since last added | 14:33 |

| FrameFever | how can I get the diskusage of all subfolders in a current directory? | 14:47 |
| FrameFever | disk usage | 14:47 |
| FrameFever | but without printing recursively all subfolders | 14:48 |
| zykotick9 | FrameFever: i like "du -sh *", or ncdu myself. | 14:48 |
| sha1sum | FrameFever: ls -AF | grep \/ | xargs du -sh | 14:49 |
| sha1sum | FrameFever: http://www.toomanyredirects.com/listing-all-subdirectories-with-file-sizes-in-linux/ | 14:49 |
| sha1sum | if you're going to be using it frequently, I would recommend setting up an alias for it like that page indicates | 14:49 |
| FrameFever | zykotick9: looking into the documentation of du | 14:51 |
| FrameFever | -s display only a total for each argument | 14:51 |
| FrameFever | I mean seriously what does this mean? | 14:52 |
| zykotick9 | FrameFever: i do like sha1sum's suggestion, as it does hidden directories as well... (fyi ncdu does as well) | 14:52 |
| Wheelman | Yeah ladies and gentlemen..screw you all whatever,whenever,wherever and whoever you are. | 14:53 |
| FrameFever | zykotick9: yea, but this docu? | 14:54 |
| FrameFever | it does not describe what I get | 14:54 |
| zykotick9 | FrameFever: summarize.... how it that confusing? it doesn't recurively list into the directories... | 14:55 |
| sha1sum | I didn't know the answer to the question, so I looked it up, which is why I like helping support on these channels. Learn something new every day :D | 14:55 |
| sha1sum | FrameFever: maybe I misunderstood. Do you not want it to give you totals recursively or do you just not want it printing every folder recursively? | 14:56 |
| FrameFever | I want the size of all directoriey inside the current directories | 14:57 |
| FrameFever | but of course without printing all subdirectories | 14:57 |
| FrameFever | thats useless | 14:57 |
| sha1sum | -s basically totals all of the sizes of the folders recursively, but doesn't display each one. | 14:57 |
| hitsujiTMO | FrameFever: try adding the -d1 flag | 14:58 |
| FrameFever | yeah i know this now, but with this docu. " display only a total for each argument" | 14:58 |
| FrameFever | it woudn't possible | 14:58 |
| FrameFever | u: warning: summarizing conflicts with --max-depth=1 | 14:59 |
| sha1sum | I don't see any way around it having to be vague like that because you can either pass it an argument within the du command or pipe it an argument or use xargs... hence "argument" | 14:59 |
| sha1sum | FrameFever: max-depth=1 will not give you the *total* of all of the recursive folders, hence you can't exactly summarize anything | 15:00 |
| sha1sum | --max-depth=1 should give you only the size of the subdirectory's files, not recursing. | 15:01 |
| hitsujiTMO | FrameFever: what directory are you trying to look at the disk usage for? | 15:03 |
| FrameFever | hitsujiTMO: does this matter? | 15:03 |
| FrameFever | in my home directory | 15:03 |
| FrameFever | I want to find the diretory with the biggest size | 15:03 |
| sha1sum | FrameFever: so I'm not understanding how that command that I first offered won't work... ? | 15:04 |
| zykotick9 | FrameFever: install ncdu, it will show you - in order! | 15:04 |
| hitsujiTMO | FrameFever: ah, ok ... thought you might be giving out about trying it on / and seeing all the sub dirs because you do not have permission to read them | 15:04 |

| hitsujiTMO | cariveri: what do you mean by damaged? | 15:06 |
| cariveri | hitsujiTMO: it does not work. apt-cache does not display anything. install and removing seems to start but returns very fast to the prompt without having done anything. | 15:07 |
| sha1sum | interesting. | 15:08 |
| hitsujiTMO | cariveri: seems like your apt-cache is corrupt | 15:08 |
| cariveri | hitsujiTMO: yes. what can I do? | 15:08 |
| hitsujiTMO | cariveri: start with; sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update | 15:09 |

| hitsujiTMO | jpmh, thats the partition manager ... have you tried restarting the install? | 15:26 |
| SPEEDWAVE | why steam os is not free install for ubuntu 12.04? | 15:28 |
| therazr | SPEEDWAVE: Because it is an OS, just like Ubuntu. | 15:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | SPEEDWAVE: steamos is an operating system. which is not even out yet | 15:29 |
| Jpmh | hitsujiTMO: I have done nothing other than ask it to re-try and it repeated - I can power down and re-start install I guess - what is this code telling me? | 15:29 |
| sha1sum | cariveri: the only thing I can offer is what I would probably do in this situation, which is backup and reinstall after a few more tedious hours of googling for an answer | 15:29 |
| SPEEDWAVE | therazr, i mean steam like on linux free to install and free to log-in.. | 15:29 |
| ikonia | SPEEDWAVE: steam client is free for ubuntu, steam OS is a rival OS nothing to do with ubuntu | 15:30 |
| sha1sum | cariveri: did you add any repos before you ran the kde install? | 15:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | Jpmh: something failed when creating the partitions. i've seen similar errors before. all you can do is restart the install. if you get the error again there may be a bigger issue | 15:30 |
| therazr | SPEEDWAVE: If you use Ubuntu with Steam, there shouldn't be any difference than using steamOS itself | 15:31 |
| SPEEDWAVE | ikonia, ah.. ok now i understand hehhe | 15:31 |
| ikonia | therazr there should be significant difference | 15:31 |
| therazr | ikonia: Why? | 15:32 |
| ikonia | therazr: because it's a different OS | 15:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | SPEEDWAVE: also, on linux, steam is officially only supported on ubuntu | 15:32 |
| sha1sum | Jpmh: can you access /var/log/syslog on a different TTY session to find out what's going on? | 15:33 |
| therazr | ikonia: Yes I know. I meant it shouldn't provide a different experience in terms of the Steam platform | 15:33 |
| ikonia | therazr: sure sure | 15:33 |
| sha1sum | not even sure there are TTY sessions on an install CD, never tried it | 15:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | therazr: that is dependant... it may provide its own set of drivers. | 15:33 |
| Jpmh | sha1sum: don't know - just booted and ran gparted from a live stick and see that there is an issue on the Windoze partition that I want to overwite anyway, am booting the old Windoze right now and will run chkdsk | 15:34 |
| rly | I compiled a custom kernel by following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild -- Kernel Build and Installation --. After the sudo reboot action, there is no grub entry for the newly built kernel. Why is this the case? | 15:34 |

| SPEEDWAVE | guys i just download this steam_latest(1).deb i dont know how to install this, can you help me about this... | 15:35 |
| rly | hitsujiTMO: yes | 15:35 |
| therazr | hitsujiTMO: Very unlikely. Valve won't create a new display server I believe... I would say they will use X, so the drivers are the same we have now | 15:35 |
| sha1sum | Jpmh: I suppose this is a silly question when discussing a dell laptop, but the thing doesn't have an RAID setup does it? (I'm laughing right now, but why not ask?) | 15:35 |
| therazr | SPEEDWAVE: It's just double-clicking on it, then the Ubuntu Software Center will pop up and then click Install, to install it | 15:35 |

| SPEEDWAVE | Okitain, hehehe im just a beginner | 15:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | rly: from what i've seen update-grub will only add entries for the newest of kernels, if you compiled an older one then the newer ones will take precedence | 15:38 |
| ikonia | rly: if you look at the the rules in /etc/default/grub you can see the pattern matching it does to see a "valid" kernel | 15:38 |
| cariveri | sha1sum: aint the something like a repair disk for such cases? | 15:38 |
| rly | ikonia: ok, great. | 15:38 |

| rly | ikonia: yes, but I just want the custom kernel to come up automatically without me configuring it manually. | 15:49 |
| ikonia | rly: you shouldn't need to configure it manually, that's the reason for the dynamic grub config generation | 15:49 |

| ikonia | rly: custom kernels can be built fine - it's nothing to do with the OS | 15:51 |
| rly | ikonia: they are not correct in that no grub entries come up. | 15:51 |
| ikonia | rly: those instructions in my view are not the best process to follow. | 15:51 |

| === mrrcp_ is now known as mrrcp | ||
| rly | ikonia: can you also say something constructive? | 15:51 |
| ikonia | rly: they could be correct - it depends on if your kernel build was sucessfull, which those instructions don't check | 15:51 |
| ikonia | rly: drop the attitude | 15:51 |
| rly | \exists x, instructions(x) and not_good(x) | 15:52 |

| alami | hello, i want to backup and newinstall ubuntu, i have backup all my data, and i don't know what else i have to backup?? | 15:54 |
| sha1sum | alami: you may want to back up some files in /etc depending on what configurations you've customized. | 15:54 |
| marlo | sorry wrong channel | 15:54 |
| sha1sum | marlo: I was wondering ;) | 15:54 |
| marlo | lol | 15:54 |
| marlo | it's early | 15:54 |
| marlo | and sunday | 15:54 |
| therazr | marlo: lol | 15:54 |
| alami | sha1sum:yes i mean for google chrome, thunderbird and so on?? | 15:55 |
| therazr | marlo: But Ubuntu is a good replacement for that win-server I tell you :D | 15:55 |
| marlo | if only... | 15:55 |
| sha1sum | alami: those should all be in the home directory for your user, preceeded by a period. | 15:55 |
| marlo | need to run some win 'server' apps, no choice! | 15:55 |
| sha1sum | alami: which are normally hidden for most file managers... You may want to make sure you back those up by showing hidden files and folders | 15:55 |
| alami | sha1sum: i have only to copy paste this folder? for example for thunderbird? | 15:56 |
| sha1sum | alami: yes... the safest way to go about it is to just copy and paste the entire folder under /home/ for your user | 15:56 |
| sha1sum | which will copy everything in it, hidden files and folders included | 15:57 |
| alami | sha1sum: i have never try that, i tought i have to make same configuratoin? | 15:57 |
| sha1sum | alami: the configuration for most of the applications are just in those hidden folders... there are some global "system-wide" configurations in /etc/, such as if you have any servers configured like apache web servers and the like | 15:58 |
| === rotorgeek is now known as ScoopsMcRotor | ||
| sha1sum | alami: having them in the user's home folder makes it possible to have the different configurations for different users, all portable... In other words, it's set up that way specifically for what you're trying to do, which is save your custom configurations | 15:59 |
| zipper | Say I have added the ppa texlive backports to my /etc/sorces.list and ran `apt-get update` how do I then get the file texlive from it? and do I have to uninstall the current texlive? | 15:59 |
| zipper | Never mind | 16:00 |
| zipper | I have the answer. | 16:00 |

| Patero-ng | does ubuntu server gets the time from stored files or from the bios? cause I did ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com yesterday and now is telling me it's 6 hours later then it is help | 16:00 |
| therazr | zipper: If texlive is installed, just upgrade. Otherwise just install it :S | 16:01 |
| sha1sum | alami: yes. could be .thunderbird and could also be .thunderbird | 16:01 |
| sha1sum | alami: which should also save all of the account information as well | 16:01 |
| sha1sum | alami: sorry I meant could be .thunderbird and could also be .mozilla-thunderbird | 16:02 |
| daniel156161 | Hi | 16:02 |
| zipper | therazr: I just ran `apt-get install texlive` and it will upgrade automatically. | 16:03 |
| alami | sha1sum: aha so no need to open thunderbird, and serach for import/export e-mails? | 16:03 |
| therazr | zipper: You should run a 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' from that repo | 16:04 |
| Jordan_U | Patero-ng: Are you dual booting with Windows? Have you booted Windows since running ntpdate? | 16:04 |
| sha1sum | Patero-ng: could be the time zone that's set up or it could be that you need to write the time to the BIOS using "sudo hwclock --systohc" | 16:04 |
| === ScoopsMcRotor is now known as rotorgeek | ||
| sha1sum | not sure if ntpdate takes care of the hardware clock or not | 16:04 |

| Patero-ng | Jordan_U: no I haven't got into windows yet | 16:05 |
| jackstrar | Hi, I have just downloaded a wifi driver for my adapter and need to know how I can build the tar.gz file in ubuntu asuming it is on my desktop | 16:05 |
| Patero-ng | sha1sum: so does ubuntu gets the current time from bios when I don't have time servers | 16:06 |
| sha1sum | jackstrar: a tar.gz file is basically compressed files, something like a zip file. You should be able to open it and extract the files. | 16:06 |
| sha1sum | jackstrar: then the installation procedure depends on the way the developers intended it to be installed. Instructions may be in a file similar to the name "README" or "INSTALL" | 16:07 |
| jackstrar | ok that makes sense but how do i install it since it does not include a .exe file | 16:07 |
| sha1sum | jackstrar: some developers are notoriously bad about writing the installation documentation. Hopefully yours were not :) | 16:07 |
| sha1sum | jackstrar: .exe files are mostly exclusive to Windows (and DOS if they're ancient) | 16:08 |

| mrafiq | hi | 16:20 |
| frxstrem | I have a computer (about 10 years old, running XP) that I have to repurpose with Ubuntu, with a user interface simple enough that my 70-some-year-old grandma can use it -- any pointers to Ubuntu-based distros or software I can use to set it up to be both very user friendly and lightweight? | 16:21 |
| ikonia | frxstrem: you're only really target is lubuntu | 16:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | frxstrem: you'd be better off with lubuntu or xubuntu | 16:21 |
| theadmin | frxstrem: Lubuntu is very lightweight. User-friendly enough too... As much as it gets with these lightweight distros anyway | 16:21 |
| k1l_ | !lubuntu | frxstrem | 16:21 |
| ubottu | frxstrem: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 16:21 |
| therazr | 10 years old is a lot. Tell the Processor and RAM of it | 16:21 |
| ikonia | a fair point | 16:22 |
| frxstrem | 1.4 GHz, 512 MB RAM (I think, haven't checked) | 16:22 |
| ikonia | again back to lubuntu | 16:22 |
| theadmin | Lubuntu will run nicely on this | 16:22 |
| jKlaus | So Alsa mixer is showing the "Speaker" volume being muted when I plug the headphones in and shows the volume going back up to 100 when I unplug the headphones but I still do not get any audio out of the speakers | 16:23 |
| jKlaus | anyone have any thoughts? | 16:23 |
| frxstrem | as I suspected, but my biggest concern is that Lubuntu's interface might be too complicated (I'd want something with big, simple buttons or something like that) | 16:24 |
| therazr | ikonia: Does that system support PAE already? | 16:24 |
| theadmin | frxstrem: Eh, well... Ubuntu's default interface is like that but unfortunately it's more heavy than a box like this would pull off.. | 16:25 |
| theadmin | frxstrem: Lubuntu is quite easy. Dunno about grandmas though. | 16:25 |
| reisio | frxstrem: I don't have much experience with LXDE, but Xfce is quite configurable with regard to size of things | 16:25 |
| otak__ | frxstrem: lxlauncher if you like blue | 16:26 |

| ubottu | robdog: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 17:08 |
| LjL | robdog: #ubuntustudio may be of interest | 17:08 |
| MonkeyDust | robdog better ask in #ubuntustudio | 17:08 |
| MonkeyDust | LjL was faster :) | 17:08 |
| robdog | ok thank you | 17:09 |
| Diplomatico | Hello, if I use a live cd, what happens to saved changes, installing programs, and more important, downloading files? | 17:11 |
| reisio | Diplomatico: poof | 17:11 |
| reisio | gone | 17:11 |
| MonkeyDust | Diplomatico they're gone when you reboot | 17:11 |
| Diplomatico | Ah... | 17:11 |
| Diplomatico | But, | 17:11 |
| k1l_ | Diplomatico: make a persistent live version. that stores the changes | 17:11 |
| zexcriz | k1l_, :0 | 17:11 |
| zexcriz | :) | 17:11 |
| Diplomatico | anyway, they do download?, and if they do, where? | 17:11 |
| MonkeyDust | Diplomatico /usr/bin is the default folder | 17:12 |
| SchrodingersScat | Diplomatico: a liveUSB is a little easier for persistence | 17:12 |
| Jordan_U | Diplomatico: To the directories found at the normal paths, it's just that all of the changes to the filesystem are stored in RAM (specifically an aufs overlay between the read only squashfs image and a read-write tmpfs). | 17:13 |

| subz3r0 | head -> wall, head -> wall... | 17:15 |
| Wiz_KeeD | XD | 17:15 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Does anyone know if I buy a laptop with a optical drive and remove it and add the tray that can support a hdd, what transfer speed I will have? | 17:15 |
| robdog | well i am looking for audio production stuff and what distro is lighter in resources so i can better runn stuff | 17:15 |
| Jordan_U | robdog: You can make Ubuntu as light as you want it. | 17:16 |
| robdog | ubuntu studio isnt cutting it... | 17:16 |
| Diplomatico | I tried ubuntu studio and the apps weren't good enough, compared to windows. | 17:16 |
| rip | i cant communicate with the router | 17:17 |
| reisio | Wiz_KeeD: probably whatever P/ATA does | 17:17 |
| robdog | well....i want free.. and this is it... the stuff works the way i want it to just studio.. is to resource heavy | 17:17 |
| reisio | Wiz_KeeD: depends on the connection | 17:17 |
| MonkeyDust | Diplomatico use the programs that suit your needs best | 17:17 |
| Wiz_KeeD | I'm curious how I can find out... | 17:17 |
| Diplomatico | Of course, monkey, that's why i just changed to plain ubuntu. | 17:17 |
| Jordan_U | robdog: You can either use the minimal install CD to install only the packages you want, or start with Lubuntu as a base. | 17:18 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Since i'm thinking I can get a laptop with a 500gig hdd, take the optical drive, chuck it, and place a ssd in the place of the original one | 17:18 |
| reisio | Wiz_KeeD: hdparm | 17:18 |
| jack | robdog, to and too are two different words | 17:18 |
| Wiz_KeeD | And I will be using the other hdd only as storage so it won't matter that much | 17:18 |
| jack | (sorry) | 17:18 |
| Jordan_U | robdog: Or just install and use LXDE in Ubuntu Studio. All flavors of Ubuntu use the same repositories. | 17:18 |
| robdog | lubuntu would install some things with Ardour and Musescore... i tried already ... lol | 17:18 |
| reisio | robdog: install a lighter DE on ubuntu studio and use that | 17:18 |
| robdog | i am using lxde | 17:18 |
| Wiz_KeeD | woah, a lot of arguments reisio :D | 17:19 |
| reisio | robdog: lxde should be pretty light | 17:19 |
| reisio | Wiz_KeeD: yeah | 17:19 |
| robdog | hmmm... | 17:19 |
| reisio | Wiz_KeeD: look at -T and -t, IIRC | 17:19 |
| robdog | having issues with ram... i got 3 gigs | 17:19 |
| reisio | robdog: is that the issue? | 17:19 |
| Jordan_U | robdog: What are you noticing that's "too heavy"? | 17:19 |
| robdog | and the kernal is the real time kernal | 17:19 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Perform device read timings, niceee | 17:19 |
| Wiz_KeeD | I suppose I need some data in it... | 17:19 |
| Wiz_KeeD | like a cd of any type | 17:19 |
| jack | reisio, i think fluxbox is even lighter | 17:19 |
| Wiz_KeeD | but optical drive might be slowe than hdd | 17:20 |
| robdog | well i can runn only 2-3 plugins in ardour befor i start getting xruns and i cant runn ardour and hydrogen together befor massive slowing | 17:20 |
| reisio | jack: course it is | 17:20 |
| reisio | does a lot less | 17:20 |
| robdog | i cant | 17:20 |
| cariveri | hitsujiTMO: reinstalling apt did not work out: http://pastebin.com/sUQBM2jz | 17:21 |
| gladosv2 | Hi guys, not sure if itś the right place to ask - I need pygst on my system but can't figure out what package I need for that | 17:21 |
| k1l_ | robdog: are you sure your hardware suits your software needs at all? | 17:21 |
| intrader | kil_ when I use -d it offers 14.04 | 17:21 |
| k1l_ | intrader: yes, you are misusing the -d | 17:21 |
| robdog | amd turion 64 x2.... 3 gigs ram ubuntu studio latest with lxde | 17:21 |
| k1l_ | intrader: its for "developement release" not for regular upgrade | 17:21 |
| jack | reisio, maybe recommend fluxbuntu then | 17:22 |
| k1l_ | robdog: turion is an old cpu | 17:22 |
| robdog | yeah.... | 17:22 |
| jack | to ppl like robdog | 17:22 |
| robdog | yeah jack? | 17:22 |
| reisio | jack: he can try fluxbox on whatever he's using already | 17:22 |
| reisio | robdog: ^ | 17:22 |
| robdog | flux box | 17:22 |
| Flannel | intrader: You need to switch yourself from LTS to "every" release. /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades is what you'll edit, change "lts" to "normal". Then, update-manager (no -d) will upgrade you to 12.10. | 17:22 |
| rip | how can i uninstall the iwlwifi driver and replace it with a new one | 17:22 |
| jack | true | 17:22 |
| k1l_ | robdog: 2006-2008 and misses alot of the new supports for multimedia that new cpus got | 17:23 |
| robdog | whats so good about it ? | 17:23 |
| robdog | ahh.. ok | 17:23 |
| reisio | robdog: fluxbox? Being a window manager alone, and not a desktop environment, it will reduce the resources required | 17:23 |
| reisio | but it also does less | 17:23 |
| reisio | it probably won't free up enough to make a real different, though | 17:23 |
| reisio | if a turion x2 and 3gb of ram isn't enough | 17:23 |
| robdog | ok and will it run ardour, mussce and hydrogen | 17:24 |
| jack | damn easy anyway, to turn onebuntu into anotherbuntu :) | 17:24 |
| reisio | either ardour/its plugins are quite badly made, or your requirements exceed your hardware | 17:24 |
| xwalk | reisio: Do you think he would be better off with Openbox and a tint2 panel? | 17:24 |
| reisio | xwalk: than with what? | 17:24 |
| xwalk | reisio: Fluxbox | 17:24 |
| jack | xwalk, fluxbox ftw! | 17:24 |
| reisio | fluxbox & openbox are pretty close, so not particularly | 17:24 |
| reisio | and LXDE and openbox are pretty close, too | 17:25 |
| intrader | kil_ bash: cd: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades: Not a directory | 17:25 |
| k1l_ | i dont think another desktop will help him in that case. his requirements exeed his hardware, imho | 17:25 |
| robdog | reisio: would flux box run ardour, muscore, hrydrogen? | 17:25 |
| k1l_ | intrader: that is a file, not a folder | 17:25 |
| Jordan_U | robdog: Any Window Manager will run any normal application. | 17:26 |
| reisio | robdog: forget about fluxbox, won't help you | 17:26 |
| robdog | hmmm... poop | 17:26 |
| BlackDex | Hello there... Is there a Ambiance Theme with dark menu's, also for GTK2+ applications?? It seems that GTK3 has dark menu's, but the GTK2 doesn't... | 17:26 |
| reisio | robdog: what happens with ardour, again? | 17:26 |
| intrader | kil_ I found release-upgrades.d | 17:26 |
| robdog | my resources are enough to runn and deal just cant figure whats the deal? | 17:26 |
| reisio | BlackDex: http://art.gnome.org/ | 17:26 |
| xwalk | BlackDex: Also, gnome-look.org | 17:26 |
| k1l_ | intrader: just go to the software&updates setting in system settings and change in the release-prompt in the 3rd tab into "every update" from "lts only" | 17:27 |
| jack | robdog, your wm never runs an app | 17:27 |
| gladosv2 | Hi guys, not sure if itś the right place to ask - I need pygst on my system but can't figure out what package I need for that | 17:27 |
| robdog | well it seam to laggy and "heavy" wich i explain with it not being able to run multiple pluggin and ardour and hydrogen together gets to many xruns | 17:27 |
| jack | it only cooperates (or not) | 17:27 |
| k1l_ | !find pygst | 17:28 |
| ubottu | File pygst found in python-gst0.10, python-gst0.10-dev | 17:28 |
| SchrodingersScat | gladosv2: try an apt-cache search python.gst | 17:28 |
| SchrodingersScat | oh :/ | 17:28 |
| robdog | jack: got it... just looking for a lighter" fix or an setting change or soemthing | 17:28 |

| jack | robdog, i think fluxbox or lxde are what you need | 17:29 |
| robdog | hmmm....k | 17:29 |
| robdog | and flux will runn the programs fine? | 17:29 |
| intrader | kil_ I am upgrading- thanks | 17:29 |
| jack | sure | 17:29 |
| jack | it's only a wm | 17:30 |
| robdog | k ill take a look....does it support a RT kernal | 17:30 |
| robdog | ahhh..... | 17:30 |
| jack | of course | 17:30 |
| === jalcine is now known as jalcine_ | ||
| xwalk | gladosv2: In the future when you're looking for a package you don't know the name of, try using apt-cache search <some search terms>. | 17:30 |
| robdog | WM... i though you were mentioning another distro | 17:30 |
| gladosv2 | thanks xwalk, k1l_ and SchrodingersScat :) Seems to be working :D | 17:30 |
| BlackDex | Thx.. Found something wich i can use :) | 17:30 |
| jack | nope | 17:30 |
| robdog | how would i get it? | 17:30 |
| Wiz_KeeD | reisio, and if I'm not mistaking in Ubuntu I can unmount the hdd from the optical bay so it's not active and stay only on ssd which provides much lower power consumption and higher performance, am I right? | 17:31 |
| SchrodingersScat | gladosv2: great | 17:31 |
| reisio | Wiz_KeeD: you can power it down most likely, yes | 17:31 |
| robdog | so i can change back and forth? | 17:31 |
| jack | fluxbox = wm, fluxbuntu =ubuntu based on it | 17:31 |
| === g_byers is now known as gbyers[Away] | ||
| jack | yes of course | 17:31 |
| robdog | where do i go for it? | 17:31 |
| reisio | Wiz_KeeD: if it doesn't on its own, hdparm or sdparm can possibly force it to | 17:31 |
| Wiz_KeeD | So i'll just setup some bash scripts to run on boot and will open it up only when I need it and I do backups and stuff | 17:32 |
| jack | robdog, sudo apt-get install fluxbox | 17:32 |
| === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine | ||
| robdog | jack: gotcha... | 17:32 |
| jack | or search for a fluxbuntu iso to install from | 17:33 |
| robdog | and do i need to log out to start it? or something? | 17:33 |
| jack | depends | 17:33 |
| robdog | yeah | 17:33 |
| robdog | k | 17:33 |
| reisio | LXDE is just a glorified openbox already | 17:33 |
| robdog | will look at it here asap.... | 17:34 |
| jack | but pretty cool, reisio | 17:34 |
| === _andyj__ is now known as _andyj_ | ||
| xwalk | robdog: Depending on the display manager you're using, any new DE or WM can be selected from the session menu. | 17:34 |
| k1l | robdog: of course you need to relogin for a desktop change | 17:34 |
| reisio | jack: point being fluxbox likely won't make much of an impact | 17:34 |
| robdog | hmmm ok i am using ubuntu studio......i think its lxde | 17:35 |
| robdog | ahhh i see | 17:35 |
| jack | reisio, true - but you know, some ppl like it | 17:35 |
| robdog | do you guys run audio productio stuff too? | 17:36 |
| jack | ardour+audacity | 17:36 |
| robdog | what your experience thus far with ardour | 17:36 |
| Diplomatico | (livecd)What about if it's a momentary download, where is it stored, does it delete itself on shutdown? | 17:36 |

| Diplomatico | No way!!Isn't there any way to keep them permanently maybe in the HD and be called from the live cd? | 17:49 |
| k1l | middey: its the transmission PPA that makes the trouble. dont know if there is something wrong with it | 17:49 |
| master_j | i don't know if that's the correct guess, the versions don't necessarily get faster boots, do they? | 17:49 |
| OerHeks | Diplomatico, no, but you can make an USB with the free space allocated for persistant packages | 17:50 |
| master_j | i remember the version after 11.10 being a slower boot | 17:50 |
| ChogyDan | Diplomatico: maybe try a pendrive install? That would work for a usb | 17:50 |
| k1l | master_j: that depends on hardware and installed software. | 17:50 |
| OerHeks | master_j, yes, my experience is it is faster | 17:50 |
| Diplomatico | Ok, so just in CD is a no go with permanent programs installed. | 17:50 |

| master_j | 5 100gb partitions would be good, right? one for home, one for windows, and 3 for linux? | 17:52 |
| master_j | oh, i was going to do a data one... should my home be ntfs? | 17:52 |
| Sazpaimon_ | this may be a better question for #ubuntu-server, but how does raid10 performance compare between mdadm and lvm? | 17:52 |
| ChogyDan | master_j: I don't think you need more than 20g for a linux install with a separate /home | 17:52 |
| k1l | master_j: your home can not be ntfs | 17:53 |
| k1l | master_j: ubuntu partitions should be ext4 | 17:53 |
| master_j | 20g! wow cool i'd like to have about 5 parts for linux distros | 17:53 |
| Sazpaimon_ | for the record I made my home directory NTFS once before and it was perfectly okay. Not that I reccomend it though, as it took some tweaking of ntfs-3g to map users and ACLs together | 17:53 |
| ChogyDan | master_j: yeah, 20g at most. I think you can get by with just 10g if you are just trying out different distros | 17:54 |

| ChogyDan | gui8765r: maybe if you explain why, we could help further | 17:55 |
| Sazpaimon_ | also, why reccomend ntfs for shared data partitions | 17:55 |
| Sazpaimon_ | wouldnt exfat be more performant for both OSes? | 17:55 |

| saket | Facing the problem "could not calculate upgrade" while updating from 13.04 to 13.10 | 17:56 |

| Sazpaimon_ | ntfs is also slow on ubuntu compared to other filesystems | 17:58 |
| Sazpaimon_ | if you're only going to be using a recent version of windows and recent version of linux on your machine, why not use exfat? | 17:59 |
| master_j | (80gb Win7)(50gb Ubuntu)(50gb Debian)(50gb Mint)(50gb Linux)(50gb Linux)(160gb Data)(10gb Swap) | 17:59 |
| master_j | that's what i'm thinking | 17:59 |
| master_j | how does that look? | 17:59 |
| Sazpaimon_ | in fact, i think even windows xp has an exfat support patch | 17:59 |
| master_j | oh, i forgot home | 17:59 |
| Sazpaimon_ | so what, are you going to argue that if he cant use a windows 2000 install, don't use exfat? | 17:59 |
| reisio | not had any problems using ntfs | 18:00 |
| master_j | ooh, should i install XP too? ;) | 18:00 |
| master_j | nah | 18:00 |
| reisio | xp 2? you might see that next year | 18:00 |
| ekem | ubuntu desktop blows | 18:00 |
| master_j | lol | 18:00 |
| k1l | master_j: if you seperate the /home 50GB is way too much. a fulll desktop ubuntu takes 5-15GB for / | 18:00 |
| Sazpaimon_ | my argument is that while ntfs works in linux, it's not as performant as exfat is | 18:00 |
| ChogyDan | master_j: do 100g for win, 20g for each linux distro, swap == ram size, maybe 20g on /home, the rest on your shared data partition | 18:00 |
| reisio | Sazpaimon_: how much less performant is it? | 18:01 |
| Sazpaimon_ | in my experience with ntfs-3g, there's a large cpu overhead when writing large files | 18:01 |
| === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off | ||
| reisio | oh "large", sounds bad | 18:01 |
| master_j | with a 20gb home i'd have to constantly copy everything i want to keep to my data part. is this how it's usually done? | 18:02 |
| reisio | what about ext? | 18:02 |
| master_j | very true, Saz. | 18:02 |
| reisio | master_j: what's the data part for? | 18:02 |
| Sazpaimon_ | I dont think i've ever seen writing to ext partitions use cpu | 18:02 |
| master_j | movies, music, pictures, documents | 18:02 |
| Sazpaimon_ | or at lest significant CPU | 18:02 |
| reisio | Sazpaimon_: from windows I mean | 18:02 |
| Jpmh | I am trying to install ubuntu - I am getting a message that creation of the ext4 partition on /dev/sda1 failed . what does this mean and how do I get past it? | 18:02 |
| reisio | master_j: why do you need a dedicated partition for that | 18:02 |
| master_j | reisio: to share data with windows | 18:02 |
| reisio | master_j: don't need a dedicated partition for that | 18:03 |
| guest130485102 | Hello | 18:03 |
| Sazpaimon_ | reisio, the point is if you want a shared data partition, dont you want that pertition to be equally performant on both linux and windows? | 18:03 |
| master_j | how would i read it from windows then? | 18:03 |
| reisio | Sazpaimon_: I'm pretty sure the overhead is going to be negligible to a human being | 18:03 |
| ChogyDan | master_j: then go ahead and make /home bigger. It depends on what you want to share with windows | 18:03 |
| _raven_ | 13.10 how to install old nautilus (3.4*) with ALL FEATURES? | 18:03 |
| reisio | master_j: ext2fsd from windows, ntfs-3g from ubuntu | 18:03 |
| master_j | oh i haven't tried ext2fsd | 18:04 |
| ChogyDan | _raven_: probably not possible/easy what features are you missing? | 18:04 |
| Sazpaimon_ | ext2fsd is.. okay | 18:04 |
| odium | I cannot get audio from SPDIF audio out while HDMI audio works fine. pavucontrol "Volume Control" reports only an hdmi output. while gnome's Sound applet reports there's an SPDIF and HDMI. | 18:04 |
| Sazpaimon_ | it seems like a kludge over using something like exfat | 18:04 |
| morsnowski | does anyone a file system plugin to read ext partitions from a MAC | 18:05 |
| reisio | over having a whole extra partition? :/ | 18:05 |
| morsnowski | +know | 18:05 |
| reisio | _that_ seems like a kludge to me | 18:05 |
| gui8765r | ChogyDan, Is it possible to copy the wireless drivers, do you know? | 18:05 |
| Sazpaimon_ | and no, the cpu overhead of ntfs-3g with writing large files (several hundred megabytes to multiple gigiabytes) is non-trivial | 18:05 |
| k1l | master_j: ntfs as a data partition is the best practise so far. | 18:05 |
| master_j | yeah i think so. simplest, anyway | 18:05 |
| ChogyDan | gui8765r: no, I don't know. I think you may have to follow the directions for each distro :( | 18:05 |
| reisio | Sazpaimon_: did you mean not non-trivial? | 18:05 |
| Sazpaimon_ | no, I mean there's a noticable cpu overhead with ntfs-3g | 18:06 |
| sha1sum | not non-trivial is a double negative anyway :P | 18:06 |
| reisio | odium: look in alsamixer, tab around, use arrow keys for toggles that aren't mixers | 18:06 |
| Sazpaimon_ | there is no significant overhead, if any, seen from using the exfat fuse driver | 18:06 |
| reisio | Sazpaimon_: then you meant not non-trivial | 18:06 |
| Sazpaimon_ | words | 18:07 |
| sha1sum | reisio: trivial == not significant; non-trivial == significant | 18:07 |
| sha1sum | not non-trival == not significant | 18:07 |
| gui8765r | ChogyDan, Probably. I first must get ahold of the drives included in ubuntu, then I can write a script to install them into the other distro as needed | 18:07 |
| ampw | if i use tightvnc on ubuntu, and want to connect to another ubuntu system do they need to be portforwarded or can i enter their ip and pass | 18:07 |
| sha1sum | non-trivial* | 18:07 |
| ChogyDan | gui8765r: what wifi card is this? | 18:08 |
| reisio | you're killing me | 18:08 |
| sha1sum | reisio: lol | 18:08 |
| gui8765r | I couldn't tell you. its a half sized mpci card | 18:08 |
| reisio | ampw: ip & pass | 18:08 |
| Sazpaimon_ | anyway i can feel my arguments are falling on deaf ears here, so I'll stop | 18:08 |
| === AndresSM_away is now known as AndresSM | ||
| ampw | reisio: Thank you sit | 18:08 |
| ChogyDan | gui8765r: are you on ubuntu, with it working? | 18:08 |
| ampw | sir* | 18:08 |
| gui8765r | it works great in ubuntu | 18:08 |
| gui8765r | yes | 18:08 |
| reisio | Sazpaimon_: well he was complaining about the extra partition is all | 18:08 |
| reisio | and I can't really blame him | 18:08 |
| reisio | but I don't dual boot anyways | 18:09 |
| reisio | and if I did I doubt I'd need to have access to the same media from both OSes the same amount | 18:09 |
| gui8765r | for example, it does not work in F4UBCD | 18:09 |
| ChogyDan | gui8765r: what is the driver listed in: sudo lshw -C networking | 18:09 |
| === jost__ is now known as jost | ||
| master_j | who was complaining | 18:10 |
| Sazpaimon_ | also, on a semi-related note, does anyone know the performance difference between raid10 over mdadm versus lvm? | 18:10 |
| gui8765r | only says PCI (sysfs) | 18:10 |
| bleach | What the heck is going on? I just went to the Ubuntu site to download the 13.10 ISO and it trys to give me the 12.04 ISO? | 18:10 |
| Sazpaimon_ | bleach, that happened to me when i didnt whitelist ubuntu.com in noscript | 18:11 |
| reisio | bleach: http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu/releases/ | 18:12 |
| k1l | bleach: you can go straight to the isos here: http://releases.ubuntu.com/ | 18:12 |
| gui8765r | connection information in network manager says Driver: ath9k | 18:12 |
| ChogyDan | gui8765r: that should be included in the kernel already. for all distros I think | 18:13 |
| Sazpaimon_ | i think i'll re-ask my question in #ubuntu-server | 18:13 |
| gui8765r | well i have live distros that do not recognize it | 18:13 |
| ChogyDan | gui8765r: maybe they are broken | 18:14 |
| gui8765r | i can look up the actual wifi card if it would make a difference | 18:14 |
| bleach | reisio/k1l: Thanks I'll try that but obviously there is a problem with the main Ubuntu site. I've given up trying to fix the 13.10 upgrade and am going to try a fresh installation (aka the way windoz folks fix things). | 18:14 |
| reisio | bleach: yeah, well, IME it's next to impossible to tell people how to correct their broken website | 18:15 |
| reisio | bleach: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors is a reliable place to get a download link | 18:15 |
| bleach | Sazpaimon: AH! Let me go try that. Sure don't want to complain of a problem with the Ubuntu site if it is my fault! | 18:15 |

| master_j | (100gb Win7)(100gb 5 Linux distros)(195gb /home)(100gb data)(5gb swap) how about that | 18:17 |
| reisio | master_j: looks pretty silly | 18:17 |
| ChogyDan | _raven_: I was going to suggest trying a different one. I doubt there is a straight forward way to downgrade nautilus | 18:18 |
| master_j | let me know why and what you'd change reisio? | 18:18 |
| reisio | master_j: I don't find myself needing six operating systems | 18:18 |
| ChogyDan | master_j: looks fine, assuming the 5 distros is actually 5 partitions | 18:18 |
| reisio | ChogyDan: I don't think so | 18:19 |
| reisio | oh yeah, probably | 18:19 |
| reisio | with a distro on each, hence silly :p | 18:19 |
| _raven_ | ChogyDan, on 13.04 there was and fork | 18:19 |
| ChogyDan | reisio: it would be 5 20g partitions | 18:19 |
| bzupnick | When can I cut in and ask a question? | 18:19 |
| bleach | Sazpaimon: That was it! My fault not Ubuntu's! Thanks again! | 18:19 |
| master_j | but if say you did want to install different distros of linux. | 18:19 |
| reisio | bzupnick: just then | 18:19 |
| oupateddie | bzupnickjust type your question | 18:20 |
| reisio | master_j: it's not the worst layout ever :) | 18:20 |
| bzupnick | ha. fine. I installed ubuntu onto my new Lenovo T530 which has an SSD and HDD. I installed ubuntu on the SSD and Grub. | 18:20 |
| master_j | k, i'm asking because i haven't installed a seperate /home partition before. | 18:20 |
| master_j | if i could install DOS on one of them that'd be awesome. :D | 18:21 |
| bleach | My $200 worth! ALWAYS create a partition or separate drive for home. | 18:21 |
| oupateddie | my unity keeps on crashing and leaves me without top and side menubars... Any way I can overcome this without rebooting. I'm on 12.04 | 18:21 |
| reisio | master_j: heh | 18:21 |
| bzupnick | I goto GRUB, and then hit "ubuntu" (it just says ubuntu. that's it) and I see a black screen with a blinking cursor for 30 seconds, then it says "gave up waiting for root device" | 18:21 |
| reisio | master_j: just tell /etc/fstab where /home is, all there is to it | 18:22 |
| master_j | sounds like a video issue, bzupnick? | 18:22 |
| reisio | master_j: well, that and make sure the distro supports the FS /home uses | 18:22 |
| reisio | bleach: not really that useful for people using a single OS | 18:22 |
| v2zz | oupateddie my side panel hangs, so i kill unity-2d-shell process and it relaunches by itself | 18:22 |
| bzupnick | master_j: What do you mean? | 18:22 |
| bzupnick | running off a live CD worked perfectly | 18:23 |
| bleach | reisio: It is if you want to reinstall. | 18:23 |
| master_j | sounds like your video driver is timing out | 18:23 |
| master_j | i could be way off. | 18:23 |
| reisio | bleach: nah, but then reinstalling isn't that useful, either | 18:23 |
| oupateddie | v2zz - ok how doyou kill unity-2d-shell.... on the system monitor processes screen or from command line? | 18:23 |
| v2zz | oupateddie exatly | 18:23 |
| bleach | bzupnick: Is the OS installed on the SSD? | 18:23 |
| oupateddie | exactly as in system monitor... | 18:24 |
| v2zz | oupateddie sorry, on the system monitor processes screen | 18:24 |
| master_j | reisio: i alwas think i'll never have to reinstall but it does happen. some people just buy new computers every 2 years, i just use the same one and instlal a new OS if i need to | 18:24 |
| bzupnick | bleach: yes | 18:24 |
| oupateddie | thanks. It seems as if it happens with libre office | 18:24 |
| * nongeek hello all | 18:24 | |
| bzupnick | but I also tried doing everything on the HD, and I got the same error | 18:24 |
| nongeek | I want to configure ipsec, in apsec.secret file I see "your_pre_shared_key" , What is it? | 18:24 |
| v2zz | oupateddie and i guess running unity-2d-shell from cmd is possible, if it's not relalunching by itself | 18:25 |
| bzupnick | here's what it displays after 30 seconds: http://pastebin.com/jhyHdF0W | 18:25 |
| bleach | bzupnick: When you boot from the live CD is the SSD visable and does your new installation show up? | 18:25 |
| oupateddie | ok thanks, it's irritating to sit with screens open and no top menu .... | 18:25 |
| t38 | bzupnick:are you dual-gooting with win 8 | 18:25 |
| t38 | booting* | 18:26 |
| master_j | i could definitely see myself running ubuntu, arch, debian, and something else. and just pick what i feel like working with, and sharing data between them. that can't be too rare, can it reisio | 18:26 |
| grimeton | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh-cnaJoGCw | 18:26 |

| reisio | master_j: unfortunately it's not too rare | 18:28 |
| master_j | unfortunately :P | 18:28 |
| oupateddie | ripthejackersometimes not.. I had a problem with an intel card and it took a lot of patience to get it sorted eventually | 18:28 |
| TheNeverWorldhac | Right click | 18:29 |
| DJones | roby123: What list? You download UBuntu from the the links on the Ubuntu website | 18:29 |
| master_j | so you're just against dual booting in general i guess | 18:29 |

| bzupnick | bleach: thanks! I'll try to work with that.... | 18:32 |

| Okitain | Assault: go to terminal, input lsusb, tell if you see anything. | 18:45 |
| Chii | or should I try blacklisting ipv 6 as I've seen indicated? | 18:45 |
| fugutive221_ | Okitain: How can I see that? When I try to press the F12 button and del button on my keyboard nothing happens (also a black screen without backlit) | 18:46 |
| subz3r0 | Okitain: youre too slow ;) | 18:46 |
| Okitain | fugutive221_: I mean, is the BIOS load screen visible? | 18:46 |
| oz0ne | Assault: 'sudo fdisk -l' disk should be there | 18:47 |
| Chii | okay question.... how do I pull a propertary driver off my linux install cd/flash disk and make my install use it? | 18:47 |
| Okitain | subz3r0: oh I know, but I'm also more specific. | 18:47 |

| Okitain | fugutive221_: in that case, it's not really usable to ask us. Go to the nearest tech shop. | 18:47 |

| Guest1099 | Hello | 18:50 |
| === Guest1099 is now known as Eagleman7 | ||
| metasansana | Is there a way to periodically clear a tmpfs filesystem? | 18:50 |
| Okitain | Chii: I'm afraid that's impossible without specifics. | 18:51 |
| fugutive221_ | Okitain: At least I can tell you what I did. Through windows 8.1 I tried to let it boot up from my USB stick so I could do a boot-repair (made with the lili usb creator.). The BIOS told me (I could see that through the not Windows layout) there was no usb booting up ability what soever. | 18:51 |
| Myrtti | kaddi: not really, going to cook. BBL. | 18:51 |
| gordonjcp | Chii: proprietary driver for what, and why? | 18:51 |
| Eagleman7 | Is it possible to set up permissions and ownerships with NFS, as you would normally do with a normal hard disk? | 18:51 |
| chro | sha1sum, how do you suggest I debug the keyboard issue ? | 18:51 |
| gordonjcp | Eagleman7: yes, but (as you might expect) it gets a bit complicated | 18:51 |
| Eagleman7 | gordonjcp: would iscsi be better for that purpose? | 18:52 |
| gordonjcp | Eagleman7: consider what happens when user lists aren't in sync between the client and server machines, and you don't take care to work round that | 18:52 |
| Chii | gordon jcp Im using an inspiron 1501.... old laptop. It appears to need to use the broadcom drivers for wireless... however at this point its not even detecting my wired ethernet unless I attempt to enable said broadcom drivers using the live disk | 18:52 |
| gordonjcp | Eagleman7: depends what you're trying to do | 18:52 |
| kaddi | Myrtti: ok.. just wanted to let you know I was not trying to impersonate you or steal your nick just now.. I'm just very used to being myrti and didn't realised I wasn't the one registering it, when it came up as registered.. I've never known anyone else using that nick ;p | 18:52 |
| Chii | at that point it fails... but magically sees my wired connection and I can now use it | 18:52 |
| gordonjcp | Chii: oh, no idea | 18:52 |
| fugutive221_ | Okitain: After that I could choose some booting up menus. And there also was a option of booting up from USB. After that I think I f*ck*d up my system | 18:52 |
| Chii | Or how or why would it not be seeing my WIRED connection? | 18:53 |
| Chii | never mind | 18:53 |
| Chii | I somehow made it work | 18:53 |
| Chii | It boggles my mind the voodoo involved in this lol | 18:53 |
| fugutive221_ | Okitain: It seems that it is in some kind of hybernate mode. Is it maybe good to but my battery and and put it back in after 10 minutes? | 18:54 |
| Okitain | fugutive221_: yes, do that. | 18:54 |
| Eagleman7 | gordonjcp: I am experimenting with FreeNAS ZFS and the harddisks is now directly attached to my ubuntu machine with different permissions and owner ships on folders. When i will change to ZFS i need a new way to setup access to harddisks on my ubuntu machine | 18:54 |
| Eagleman7 | I am currently using esxi with RDM to attach my disks to Ubuntu | 18:56 |
| Assault | lsusb or fdisk do not display the USB HD...well, I guess its just not possible to use | 18:56 |
| Assault | on Virtualbox | 18:56 |
| fugutive221_ | Okitain: Please stay tuned. I will update you with some info wether it is going to work or not :P | 18:56 |
| Okitain | fugutive221_: I'm afraid I can't stay tuned. Work to do. | 18:57 |
| Eagleman7 | gordonjcp: so i am trying to figure out which system works best to access my files over the network | 18:57 |
| fugutive221_ | Okitain: Thanks anyway :D | 18:57 |
| subz3r0 | Assault: you need to install the guest additions in addition to get usb working under virtualbox ;) | 18:58 |
| ABM | Guest addition is generally provided in the package itself | 18:59 |
| subz3r0 | ABM: and? | 19:00 |
| Eagleman7 | gordonjcp: you still here? | 19:00 |
| subz3r0 | also he needs Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-.... to get usb working | 19:00 |
| subz3r0 | no virtualbox extension no usb | 19:00 |
| ABM | so no download required if you have the offline pacakge of the VirtaulBox | 19:01 |
| subz3r0 | ABM | 19:01 |
| subz3r0 | thats bullshit | 19:01 |
| ABM | what | 19:01 |
| subz3r0 | Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack is NOT delivered with virtualbox | 19:01 |
| whoever | hi all, i have multible monetors. what pkg will allow each screen to have its own screen save and active time? | 19:02 |
| subz3r0 | you need to download it from virtualbox.org and install it @virtualbox | 19:02 |
| fugutive221_ | Okitain: I think putting the battery out and in worked ;D | 19:02 |
| gordonjcp | Eagleman7: for about ten seconds... | 19:02 |
| === Wheelman is now known as _Hero_ | ||
| gordonjcp | Eagleman7: iSCSI is great if you want something to pretend to be a disk on a client machine | 19:02 |
| ABM | I have the .deb file of the VirtualBox and it had all the things required | 19:02 |
| gordonjcp | Eagleman7: what your client machine sees is actually a block device, that you can partition, format etc | 19:03 |
| subz3r0 | ABM. no it does not | 19:03 |
| subz3r0 | see here: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads | 19:03 |
| ABM | I don't use the VirtualBox provided in the Software centre | 19:03 |
| gordonjcp | Eagleman7: if you want more than one machine to share an iSCSI target you have to use a filesystem that supports multiple access | 19:03 |
| Eagleman7 | gordonjcp: would it be smart to setup samba/nfs on the ubuntu machine which then has the iscsi disk attached | 19:04 |
| subz3r0 | ABM: you dont really know what youre talking about, do you? | 19:04 |

| Guest404 | this is not an uefi bios | 20:16 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest404, That is part of the problem at least the lock, it wont use that as a multi boot | 20:17 |

| wilee-nilee | Guest404, Was it ever a uefi? | 20:17 |

| Guest404 | not uefi that i know of | 20:18 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest404, The hybrid boot is uefi, so you left it in hibernate? | 20:18 |

| gotwig | when can we expect to see unity 8 in ubuntu 14.04 | 20:33 |
| k1l | gotwig: the plan is for 14.10 | 20:33 |
| gotwig | k1l: well, that makes me really sad | 20:33 |
| linuxbitch | hey | 20:34 |
| kostkon | gotwig, why? | 20:35 |
| greek | Hi guys how do I COMPLETELY disable the touchpad in 12.04 LTS? | 20:35 |
| bekks | greek: Best chances are to do so in the BIOS. | 20:35 |
| apb1963 | so the question then becomes not why does zoiper not work, but why does zoiper not work for my specific instance of ubuntu 12.04 with kde ? | 20:35 |
| apb1963 | t38: What desktop are you using? | 20:35 |
| IdleOne | dahkmattah231: you there? | 20:35 |
| gotwig | kostkon: because I was a unity dev, time ago, and I want to see something new. All unity < 8 is not interessting to me | 20:35 |
| joaouser | helo | 20:36 |
| kostkon | gotwig, ok | 20:36 |
| greek | kostkon is basically my name haha | 20:36 |
| gotwig | kostkon: we all want to see something new, dont we | 20:36 |
| greek | bekks, ok thanks | 20:36 |
| gotwig | but for LTS they want to have something stable, yeah.. | 20:36 |

| IdleOne | dahkmattah231: now? | 20:38 |
| apb1963 | t38: so what that says to me is that there's something wrong with kde..... how do I install cinnamon (I don't why but I want to call it cinnabun :) ) | 20:39 |
| dahkmattah231 | ufw with its default configuration, does it basically blocks all incoming connections except the ones you allow? | 20:39 |
| bekks | dahkmattah231: Thats the default configuration, yes. | 20:39 |
| NetCatty_ | How do I set the priority for media player to use the media keys and how to switch between them? | 20:40 |

| bekks | sam_uk: Then pastebin your grub configuration please. | 20:42 |
| sam_uk | /etc/grub ? | 20:43 |
| bekks | sam_uk: yes, there it is. | 20:43 |
| apb1963 | t38: thanks. However, it just occurred to me.... what version of ubuntu are you running? | 20:44 |
| shhha | hey dual booting question, if i use gparted to make a partition and on this partition i want to install windows 7, is the only format "NTFS"? and no other that would work ? | 20:44 |
| bekks | shhha: Correct. | 20:44 |
| k1l | shhha: yes. | 20:44 |
| paulus68 | shhha: you should probably install windows first and then ubuntu | 20:45 |
| NetCatty_ | windows 7 is still using ntfs? | 20:45 |
| bekks | NetCatty_: Yes. | 20:46 |
| bekks | NetCatty_: Even Win 8.1 does. | 20:46 |
| shhha | paulus68: interesting... is this because if i install ubuntu overall and tick the "LVM and encrypted file" stuff and THEN installed windows it wouldn't work too well? | 20:46 |
| jmgk | hi shhha | 20:46 |
| sam_uk | bekks, weird i don't have a /etc/grub i have a /etc/grub.d folder with subfolders in it.. | 20:46 |
| NetCatty_ | bekks: didn't they upgraded it to somthing or anther? | 20:46 |
| bekks | sam_uk: yeah. | 20:46 |
| therazr | NetCatty_: And they don't know then ReFS will be ready | 20:46 |
| shhha | jmgk: hi | 20:46 |
| bekks | NetCatty_: No. | 20:47 |
| bekks | shhha: No. Generally, Windows messes up the bootloader. | 20:47 |
| paulus68 | shhha: the thing is when you are going to do a dual boot you first need to install windows because it can be messing arround with your bootloader | 20:47 |
| sam_uk | bekks, I _should_ have a /etc/grub file? right? | 20:48 |
| bekks | sam_uk: No. | 20:48 |
| t38 | apb1963: I'm running 13.04 | 20:48 |
| sam_uk | no? | 20:48 |
| bekks | sam_uk: No. | 20:48 |
| paulus68 | shhha: http://lifehacker.com/5403100/dual+boot-windows-7-and-ubuntu-in-perfect-harmony | 20:48 |
| bekks | sam_uk: /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d/ | 20:48 |
| ashish2 | hi | 20:48 |
| apb1963 | t38: that would make the difference... all kinds of stuff works in 13.04 that doesn't in 12.04 | 20:49 |
| shhha | bekks: aw man.. lol. now i may just make the entire switch to ubuntu then... lol paulus68 so is there no way to have a "good" dual boot setup with ubuntu and win7 where the ubuntu half has the LVM and encrypted file feature, are these features worth it also? | 20:49 |
| ice9 | in Uhuntu 13.10 sound there is always background noise when playing any sound! | 20:49 |
| sam_uk | bekks, http://pastebin.com/vubNE5LA | 20:50 |
| paulus68 | shhha:yes but you need to install windows first and then ubuntu | 20:50 |
| paulus68 | shhha: just follow the guide I mentioned earlier | 20:51 |
| Jordan_U | shhha: You can have your Ubuntu partitions however you like them, and to be clear it is possible to install Windows second, it just means that you'll have to manually re-install grub after Windows clobbers it. | 20:51 |
| t38 | apb1963: Worth a shot.. You might like the way cinnamon works. Its kinda 'purty' | 20:51 |
| sam_uk | bekks, /etc/default/grub : http://pastebin.com/UDb3g7Vb | 20:52 |
| Jordan_U | sam_uk: Please pastebin your /etc/default/grub . | 20:52 |
| johnjohn101 | /join #couchdb | 20:52 |
| master_j | how does this look? http://i.imgur.com/RADFPoQ.png | 20:53 |
| paulus68 | Jordan_U: it's possible to word this way but it's more adviceable to install windows first then Ubuntu this has been the most clean way since a long way back | 20:53 |
| shhha | paulus68: Jordan_U hmm thanks, i didn't know that, but that makes sense now. | 20:53 |
| paulo | 2 | 20:53 |
| paulo | a | 20:53 |
| paulus68 | Work | 20:53 |
| apb1963 | t38 I've heard good things about it... but then I've heard good things about lots of stuff... my biggest fear is that I install it and then get stuck with something that doesn't work... I can't seem do find a support channel for it, other than linux-mint | 20:53 |
| sam_uk | Jordan_U, Just spotted original/ edited lines & re-edited. | 20:53 |
| bekks | sam_uk: line 17/18 are messed up. | 20:54 |
| paulus68 | shhha: it's always better to start with windows first because if you work the other way arround your boatloader gets messed up | 20:55 |
| apb1963 | t38: and I certainly don't want to upgrade to 13.04... for one thing it's not LTS I don't think, and for another I hear too many stories about people needing to totally reinstall to get it working. I can't afford to mess up this machine and don't have another to work with. | 20:55 |
| t38 | apb1963: The good thing about DE's is - you can always switch back. Just choose the one you want at login | 20:55 |
| bekks | sam_uk: USe this line for 17/18: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash quiet i915.i915_enable_fbc=1 pcie_aspm=force acpi_backlight=vendor" | 20:55 |
| sam_uk | bekks, yep just saw that, commented it out now updating | 20:55 |
| fahadash | My first month as a ubuntu user is over and now ubuntu is acting like windows. | 20:55 |

| === Brandon is now known as Guest54804 | ||
| t38 | japb1963: just log out -> choose your preferred desktop -> log back in | 20:57 |
| apb1963 | t38: for me, logging out is nearly the same as rebooting.... I hate doing it because I always have a boatload of windows open that I hate to reset... although these days with browswers continuing from where they left off, it's not as bad as it used to be. | 20:57 |
| t38 | apb1963: I can understand that. I rebooted mine last night for the first time in about 2 weeks | 20:59 |
| sam_uk | bekks, that looks happier.. Thanks | 20:59 |
| Guest54804 | Hey all. Does anyone know if, when using an interactive shell program, it is possible to return to and edit a previously entered line if the command has not yet been terminated? | 20:59 |
| bekks | Guest54804: Yes, I know it. No it isnt possible. | 21:00 |
| === Guest54804 is now known as BrandonM | ||
| apb1963 | t38: well, getting a softphone working is more important than anything else right now, so I'll go install cinnabun... thank you | 21:00 |
| BrandonM | OK, thanks a lot, bekks. | 21:00 |
| t38 | apb1963: Had someone tell me one time about a cinnabun, "try it, you'll like it" - hard to stop after just one. LOL | 21:02 |
| apb1963 | t38: I've never actually tried one... cinnamon rolls, yes... cinnabun... no. But I can't get the name out of my head.... very....umm... sticky. | 21:09 |
| === sburjan_ is now known as sburjan` | ||

| OerHeks | okay19, let the installer decide, if you want hybernate/sleep | 21:10 |
| apb1963 | t38: So I guess it's all installed now... just logout and back in again then huh? | 21:10 |
| therazr | okay19: Just tell how much space you want to give to Ubuntu, and the installer will decide on the swap space | 21:11 |
| k1l | okay19: if you want suspend2disk: swap=ram | 21:11 |
| t38 | apb1963: There's always the #linuxmint group IF there are any gotchas | 21:12 |

| apb1963 | apb1963: yeah, I noticed some stuff come down with the cinnabun files, which is what made me think to try zoiper again. | 21:14 |
| Othi` | google has nothing on it | 21:14 |
| apb1963 | oh look i'm talking to myself | 21:14 |
| wiak | do anyone got a clue why ubuntu will reboot it self when i run x264 encoding? | 21:14 |
| t38 | apb1963: NOW, will it place a call???? | 21:15 |
| andybrine | Has anyone had this issue with 13.10? It is showing a black background and i am unable to change it | 21:15 |
| apb1963 | t38: yeah, I noticed some stuff come down with the cinnabun files, which is what made me think to try zoiper again. | 21:15 |
| wiak | no problem with cpu temp, its around ~40c | 21:15 |

| wiak | i have a A10-5800K, Noctua cooler, so no problem with temp i belive | 21:16 |

| andybrine | I have had nothing but problems since installing it | 21:18 |
| andybrine | has anyone else had problems with no wallpaper in 13.10? | 21:19 |
| bekks | !anyone | andybrine | 21:19 |

| miggol | Hey, I just upgraded to 13.10 from 13.04 on an optimus laptop. This broke my xorg (bumblebee/primus) setup, so I purged those packages and have installed nvidia-prime. I am now only able to login to Gnome Flashback no-effects, both kde and unity fail to load their respective window managers. | 21:20 |
| andybrine | the wallpaper is there when first installed but after a reboot i just get a black wallpaper | 21:20 |
| k1l | andybrine: did you set another picture as wallpaper to try it out? | 21:21 |
| k1l | andybrine: what does .xsession-errors say? | 21:21 |
| miggol | Strangely in flashback glxinfo shows all the right extensions and nvidia-settings says all is fine, though under my display states it has no scanout. How can I troubleshoot this problem? | 21:21 |
| andybrine | I have set another wallpaper but it wont change | 21:21 |
| apb1963 | t38: sigh... zoiper is frozen on "failed to create startup entry" | 21:22 |

| bekks | l01: No. | 21:22 |
| l01 | like incompatibilities and such? | 21:22 |

| l01 | okay, thank you =) | 21:22 |
| wilee-nilee | andybrine, You might try a reset http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2013/08/reset-unity-and-compiz-in-ubuntu-13-10/ | 21:22 |
| miggol | Should I check .xsession-errors after logging into unity? It seems fine from flashback | 21:23 |
| apb1963 | t38: I told it to start at startup... so I imagine it's trying to put install into /etc/rc.d or some such... which of course it can't since i'm not root. silly zoiper | 21:23 |
| miggol | Just some gnome-settings-daemon whining | 21:23 |

| Dr_willis | alex_, and how do we know what the last command was.... | 21:39 |
| alex_ | @ubottu Im running Ubuntu 13.10 and installing it to my macbook with a usb stick, ive followed the supplied tutorial exactly and am at the last step: (Execute sudo dd if=/path/to/downloaded.img of=/dev/diskN bs=1m) So far its been about 15 mins and no response from terminal except if i would try to close it says it will terminate the running proccess dd sudo | 21:39 |
| Dr_willis | a dd command can take quite a bit of time to work. | 21:40 |
| Dr_willis | there will be no response untill its done | 21:40 |
| alex_ | thank you DR Willis, appreciate it | 21:41 |
| Dr_willis | !tab | 21:41 |
| ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 21:41 |
| bekks | alex_: How big is the /path/to/downloaded.img ? | 21:41 |
| Dr_willis | i do hope he used the actual path to the img. :) | 21:41 |
| bitplane | I'm having problems compiling gnome-sound-recorder from source, I installed gobject-introspection but this configure.ac script fails: http://pastebin.com/maEpLgPz | 21:41 |
| Ben64 | alex_: open a second terminal, and type "sudo killall -SIGUSR1 dd" | 21:41 |
| alex_ | thanks for the help all! it just finished *facepalm* so im gonna go do this and feel stupid bye | 21:41 |
| bitplane | Would this suggest a problem with gobject-introspection package / package name or an autoconf bug? | 21:41 |
| apb1963 | Dr_willis: And the right disk | 21:41 |
| apb1963 | device | 21:41 |
| trism | bitplane: you might need libgirepository1.0-dev | 21:42 |
| bitplane | thanks trism! | 21:43 |
| Dr_willis | bitplane, if a program is int he repos.. you can use 'sudo apt-get build-dep packagename' that will pull in all needed dependencies to compile the app. (might be build-deps) | 21:43 |
| bitplane | Dr_willis, I did that but I'm checking to see if the bug in Ubuntu is also upstream, so I'm compiling git head from gnome.org | 21:44 |

| andreex | hi there. I installed Ubutnu 13 from mini.iso but it's not working. When it reaches the point when it would ask for a password it keeps alternating between a pink screen and a blank one. so until I find a way to fix it I want to boot from the second disk, which has Ubunto 12 LTS. As the GRUB splash screen has both systems listed I want to change the default boot disk for the moment. I've looked in the Internet, bu most sites mention file /boot/menu.lst.. | 21:56 |
| andreex | . unfortunately I don't have this file in /boot. any hint on how to change the default boot disk on this Ubuntu machine? | 21:56 |
| ampw | i want it to auto type something when i press something | 21:56 |

| oliver_ | hello, i have a big problem, whenever i suspend, my screen wont turn on after a suspend, this happend after i upgraded to 13.10, had a lot of issues with 13.10 so downgraded to 12.04, but now my suspend doesn't work here too, it did before | 22:05 |
| alex______ | Ok I'm back, with some more questions. I have installed Ubuntu 13.10 onto my USB stick to be used on my mac. i finished the whole tutorial process and restarted my mac and opened ubuntu from my usb stick. Now it seems Ubuntu is opening and operational, but it opens the ubuntu install client and wants me to erase and replace my mac osx with ubuntu...i dont want to do that, if at all possible id like to use ubuntu from my usb stic | 22:06 |
| wiak | https://github.com/groeck/nct6775/ <- trying to compile that | 22:06 |
| alex______ | to ubuntu | 22:06 |
| OerHeks | user239823, i can't find a good solution for duplicity. | 22:08 |
| user239823 | OerHeks: Ok, thanks for your time anyway. Regards. | 22:09 |
| oliver_ | alex______: you can see about using ubuntu on usb without installing here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/try-ubuntu-before-you-install | 22:09 |
| sha1sum | so many underscores. | 22:10 |
| wiak | make: *** /usr/src/linux-headers-3.8.0-31-generic: No such file or directory. Stop. | 22:10 |
| wiak | :/ | 22:10 |
| wiak | E: Package 'linux-headers-3.8.0-31-generic' has no installation candidate | 22:11 |
| wiak | erm | 22:11 |
| sha1sum | wiak: you probably need linux-headers package | 22:11 |
| sha1sum | oh wait | 22:11 |
| sha1sum | nevermind | 22:11 |
| sha1sum | I suppose that's the issue. | 22:12 |
| wiak | the module tells me it needs 3.8.0.31 but the system only got 3.11.0-12 and 3.5.0-39 | 22:12 |

| alex______ | <sha1sum> can i run ubuntu applications that i have on cd or dvd while in the "try" mode? | 22:12 |
| Ubnoobtu | Hey All, I'm back again with some new issues which I think are entirely from me not being thorough enough. | 22:13 |
| wiak | meybe i should boot into 3.5 :P | 22:13 |
| wiak | and try again | 22:13 |
| sha1sum | wiak: probably won't solve the fact that it looks like it's wanting a specific kernel version, which seems creepy to me | 22:14 |
| erpo | My Ubuntu 12.04 box is stopping at an (initramfs) prompt when I try to boot it up. I booted from a system rescue USB flash drive and ran fsck on my root filesystem, and it indicated that it replayed the journal. However, this did not solve the problem. Suggestions? | 22:14 |
| wiak | sha1sum 3.8.0-31-generic is the current running kernel, but the headers are MIA | 22:16 |
| oliver_ | ubuntu 12.04, 12.10, 13.10, iam not able to use suspend function, it just gives me a black screen when i start up after suspend | 22:16 |
| sha1sum | wiak: did you build your kernel from source by any chance? | 22:17 |
| sha1sum | wiak: either way, is there any way you can install both the kernel and headers from the same version and boot to it? | 22:18 |
| wilee-nilee | erpo, Is this with kernel choice at grub? | 22:19 |
| wilee-nilee | every* | 22:19 |
| bcgrown | I upgraded to Xubuntu 13.10 and now I can't play multiple audio streams at once. I could on 12.10 before I upgraded. How do I make it work again? | 22:19 |

| okay19 | Ok | 23:08 |
| Dr_Willis | okay19: and from that ive read of the efi install wiki page you mount that partion to /boot/efi or somthing like that. | 23:08 |
| Dr_Willis | !uefi | 23:08 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS.

| hitsujiTMO | parduse: either should be just as good | 23:09 |
| javanic | hitsujiTMO, running it now | 23:09 |
| okay19 | Dr_Willis: I saw that, but the partition's type is labeled "EFI boot partition" in the list and there is no option to set the mount point. | 23:09 |
| parduse | ty Dr_Willis & hitsujiTMO | 23:09 |
| okay19 | Dr_Willis: So do I just leave it and install? | 23:09 |
| erpo | If anyone else is having the same problem, the solution was to add the kernel option bootdegraded=yes in GRUB. Apparently one of my disks was dying in a way that *didn't* show up in /proc/mdstat even after running a check. | 23:09 |
| Dr_Willis | okay19: no idea then. I have never used a uefi system. from what i recall reading its a fat32 partion and mounted to /boot/uefi | 23:10 |
| okay19 | Ah, ok. | 23:10 |
| hitsujiTMO | okay19: what exactly are you trying to do? | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | okay19: go for it. ;) | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | install to a uefi system . using custome partioning. | 23:10 |
| javanic | hitsujiTMO, ok.. it's done. do i need to check anything to make sure it's done what it needs to? or should it be assumed that all is good now? | 23:11 |
| hitsujiTMO | okay19: yeah, if you want to reformat the efi partition, it must be marked as ef00 (with gdisk or cgdisk) and you mount that to /boot/efi as dr_willis said | 23:12 |

| hitsujiTMO | javanic: sweet, you've a crapton of space in /boot again. remember to clean it out after every few dist-upgrades | 23:14 |
| javanic | hitsujiTMO, by just using the "autoremove"? | 23:14 |
| jcrza | Oop, answered my own question. ERPXE looks like what I need | 23:15 |
| hitsujiTMO | javanic: by looking at what your current kernel is with: uname -r and remove any kernels you see that are older than that listed as installed in: dpkg --get-selections | grep linux-image | 23:16 |
| javanic | hitsujiTMO, ok, so use the same "apt-get purge" with whatever isn't the current kernel? | 23:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | javanic: not whatever isn't just whatever is older than the kernel .. you dont want to purge newer kernels | 23:18 |
| okay19 | Does the installer set the EFI boot partition's mount point automatically? | 23:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | okay19: yes it does if you let ubuntu do the partitioning | 23:18 |
| okay19 | hitsujiTMO: What if you do it yourself, or 'something else'? | 23:19 |
| javanic | hitsujiTMO, ok cool. thanks for the help! how do i learn how to do all this myself? is there any good resources that i can read up on? | 23:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | okay19: what you can do is let ubuntu do it, then go back and edit what it does | 23:20 |
| hitsujiTMO | javanic: google is the best resource to be honest. wel for me anyway | 23:20 |
| okay19 | hitsujiTMO: The problem is that the installer isn't detecting windows 8 and I'm trying a dual boot here | 23:20 |
| javanic | hitsujiTMO, ok, thanks again.. much appreciated! :) | 23:21 |
| Die_Nadal | k1l yes I thought I had but wanted to know if it worked, or at least how to confirm it. | 23:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | okay19: its almost impossible for the installer not to pick up windows since it just needs to see the efi boot manager to see what operating systems you've installed. have you made room for the ubuntu install manually? | 23:28 |

| prx | Hey | 23:33 |
| prx | I'm trying to download some packages, and i get this weird error message: Failed to fetch http://il.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/distribute/python-setuptools_0.6.34-0ubuntu1_all.deb Could not connect to 69.147.225.29:3128 (69.147.225.29). - connect (111: Connection refused) | 23:35 |
| prx | seems like a proxy to me, but i'm not using any proxy (69.147.225.29:3128) | 23:36 |
| odium | I did some magic to get lighttp to incorporate libx264 streaming libraries, but now ssl won't work, can someone set me on the right path to get them both working? | 23:36 |
| hitsujiTMO | prx: check your apt.conf to see if theres a proxy there | 23:36 |
| === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away | ||
| prx | how did it get there? :) | 23:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | prx: did you at any stage put in the proxy? | 23:40 |
| prx | since its the only thing on that file, should i just make it blank? | 23:40 |
| prx | i never put a proxy on apt-get specifically, only for the whole network | 23:40 |
| Richhh | trying to install ubuntu for dual booting with xp, checksum on iso ok, no disc defects, no ram problems, installation freezes on ubuntu . . . . . screen (whether i try to fully install or try first) | 23:40 |
| hitsujiTMO | prx: you should be able to safely clear it. afaik, that gets populated if you speficy a proxy during the installation install | 23:41 |
| Richhh | (12.04 32bit) | 23:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | Richhh: what graphics card do you have? | 23:42 |
| prx | hitsujiTMO, i cleared the file but it still tries to use it, any idea how to refresh? | 23:42 |
| Richhh | hitsujiTMO not sure, checking... | 23:43 |
| Richhh | pretty sure its onboard | 23:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | prx, check in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ too incase there's more than one entry | 23:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | Richhh: first try booting with the kernel option: nomodeset | 23:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | Richhh: if that doesn't work remove the 'quiet' and 'splash' options and you should see the dmesg output at the time of the crash | 23:45 |
| ampw | anyone have a server | 23:45 |

| ubottu | ampw: 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. | 23:45 |
| ampw | hitsujiTMO: sorry wrong chat* | 23:45 |
| prx | hitsujiTMO, no, nothing on there. | 23:45 |
| bibi346 | hi, in web-development, instead of sending an email when the user is waiting for the http response, some people delegate this task to some backend worker, so taht the response can be sent asap, do you know how it is called? Is there a name for this programming technique? | 23:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | prx: try a reboot, have you actually used that proxy before? | 23:46 |
| prx | i cant really tell, lets hope i did :) | 23:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | bibi346: reverse proxy | 23:46 |
| prx | i'll reboot, thanks :) | 23:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | bibi346: crap never read your question fully... | 23:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | !ot | delegation is the answer and this is not the place to be asking such a question. try a programming channel | 23:48 |
| ubottu | delegation is the answer and this is not the place to be asking such a question. try a programming channel: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 23:48 |
| Richhh | ok hitsujiTMO , will try now, gfx card is GeForce 6200SE TurboCache | 23:49 |

| === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away | ||
| hitsujiTMO | Richhh: remove the quiet and splash params so. (and leave off nomodeset). you should get some indication of what your underlying problem is from that. | 23:58 |
| prx | found the ip on etc/environment | 23:58 |
| prx | whats that? | 23:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | prx: set as an environment var? that's bizarre | 23:59 |
