bekkshittt: technically, it looks like this: you have no disk space free actually, since you have (in sum) those much and those big files, that your free space ic oocupied.00:00
hitttbekks, but i cant locate them, my home folder only accounts for 16 GB's and the rest are small files (i dont know how hidden files get treated in this case)00:01
bekkshittt: The solution is: delete as much big files as possible. First approach: sudo apt-get autoclean; sudo apt-get autoremove; -- BE CAREFULL, since it MAY (the second command) delete stuff you dont want to be deleted.00:01
bekkshittt: run and pastebin the following: df -sh --max-depth=1 /00:02
hittt-s?00:03
scipi0Please.00:04
scipi0Help.00:04
hitttmy df doesnt seem to have a -s argument :S00:05

folstoHello, I have been trying Ubuntu and other linux based distros for a couple of months now, everytime I install one I tend to go back to restoring Windows 8 the laptop came with. The issue is that when I install Ubuntu or any other linux distro the ssd tends to get way hotter, almost the same as the cpu itself which btw also tends to get hotter than in windows 8.00:05
folstoThe SSD is a Corsair Force 3 SSD 256 GB, any ideas as to what might be the reason00:06
bekksfolsto: And whats the issue then?00:06
scipi0okay, ubottu. Hi, my upgrade to 13.10 just went bad. I used the software updater to update and I was in the "installing packages" mode when the window went dark and unresponsive. I quit it and went to open up the software updater when it informed me that I can only perform a partial update. I select to do this and it does nothing. I am updating from 13.04 using intel with a dual-boot with...00:06
scipi0...12.04. I am using the 13.04. Please help00:06
folstobekks: In short the SSD is way hotter than even a traditional hdd could be and also cpu gets a bit hotter, and I am concerned it would reduce the life of the laptop in future far quicker00:07
selektahello! I was wondering if someone could help me with installing my cisco ae23500 USB network card.00:07
bekksfolsto: "hotter than a hdd can be"?00:08
selektaI googled it but the tutorial seemed extremely difficult to me00:08
folstobekks: as i understand ssds tend to be a lot cooler than spinning disk hdd's, and in this case the ssd is lot hotter.00:09
hitttbekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6396918/00:09
bekksfolsto: nothing at all indicate that ssd are to be a lot cooler than hdd.00:10
BvLscipi0: so your dual booting 12.04 & 13.04 - and you are trying up update 13.04 to 13.10 but the update failed00:11
selektacan someone help me please?00:11
selektaI need to know how to enable graphical sudo so I can drop a tarball in \usr\src00:11
bekksselekta: gksudo00:12
hitttgksudo00:12
BvLsudo apt-get install gksu00:12
BvLgksu is no-longer installed default00:12
selektai ran it00:13
selektaand it wont let me drag and drop this00:13
SchrodingersScatselekta: what did you gksudo into?00:14
selektanothing00:14
selektaI have no idea what im doing00:14
BvLonce sec00:14
BvLyou want to do it graphically00:14
folstobekks: to put it another way, I just checked the temps of cpu its 69 C and when put my hand below the cpu area and the ssd area, both feel like are at the same temperature, whereas in windows 8 the temps are about 60-65 C. Is this normal on Ubuntu?00:14
selektaim trying to install a driver I guess so I can use my cisco wireless network usb car and it wants me to do a bunch of crazy stuff00:14
SchrodingersScatselekta: you can try a 'gksudo nautilus' and it'll bring up a root nautilus, oh dear be careful though00:14
folstobekks: using lm-sensors00:14
selektaIf someone could help me I have VNC00:14
selektaor teamviewer00:15
scipi0BvL: Yes.00:15
bekksfolsto: I stringly doubt you feel the difference of 4 degrees with you hand - above 43 degrees, which will actually burn your hand.00:15
BvLgksudo nautilus gksu nautilus \usr\src00:15
bekks*strongly00:15
hitttfolsto: sometimes the CPU might be actually overheating due to poor thermoconductivity (Aka the thermodynamic gum needs replacement)00:16
rawfodogHi, Im using a 32 bit program on a 64bit xubuntu install. I'm missing libasound 32 bit. What do I type to install it ?00:16
rawfodogwill downloading the 32 bit version break anything ?00:16
folstobekks:  btw  I forgot to mention I don't feel any heat at all below ssd on windows, its only in Ubuntu thst the ssd tend to feel like at the same temp as the cpu00:16
hitttrawfodog: no, 32 bit programs work well on 64 bit platforms00:17
selektathat worked BvL !00:17
hittts/programs/anything/00:17
rawfodoghittt, Im missing the 32bit lib to run this00:17
Roryrawfodog: What are you doing that requires that lib?00:17
folstohittt: I think the temps are fine since its an i7 quad core , its the ssd temps that I am concerned with00:17
BvLscipi0, first just to be sure did you backup any important information00:17
rawfodogInstalling Renoise00:17
scipi0BvL; no :( . I'm kinda stupid in that way00:18
selektaim trying to run these commands but its not working00:18
Roryrawfodog: You're installing the 32 bit version? Why? They provide a 64 bit version00:18
rawfodog64bit is buggy isnt it ?00:18
rawfodoghere is an ldd of renoise on my comp ...00:19
rawfodoghttp://pastebin.com/RrSctXJD00:19
selektaI placed the tarball in /usr/src and now im trying to run tar -xvf ndiswrapper-xxx but it doesnt work00:19
Roryrawfodog: I recommend using their 64 bit version it is no more buggy and they recommend it for 64 bit systems00:19
Roryrawfodog: "If you rarely or never use plugins, and have a 64-bit OS, go for the 64-bit version of Renoise as well. The 64-bit version can use more than 4 GB of memory and will perform a little better."00:19
rawfodogk thanks Rory00:19
hitttfolsto: You arent getting a good reading with your hand, the computer gets the reading from a much better position, the ssd should be around 40-50 C00:19
rawfodogok great thanks00:19

Aut0Execok00:24
Ari-Yangbekks: my bad, meant the other guy ^00:24

maujhsnselekta Why now leave your tar file in /Downloads and extract from there/00:25

scipi0BvL: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6397015/00:32
BvLthanks00:32
maujhsnselekta Put it aside for now, and re-try it tomorrow!00:33
Ari-Yangmujee_: run sudo apt-get --purge cmake then download this, and extract it http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.12.1.tar.gz00:33

Ari-Yangmujee_: okay now read the readme.txt00:35
Ari-Yangit has the instructions00:35
BvLscipi0 ok then do a sudo rm -r /var/lib/dpkg/lock00:35
DemYisushello00:35
selektamaujhsn, huh?! That makes no sense!00:36
Ari-Yangmujee_: you're suppose to cd into the folder with terminal run ./bootstrap after make and then if all goes well sudo make install00:36
scipi0BvL: done.00:36
selektaI need internet on this box tonight!00:36
Ari-Yangmujee_: after you run make, pastebin the output when it's done and link me before running sudo make install00:36
BvLscipi0, what happened is that linux places this file to say im installing stuff, but if crash during a installation process this file doent get removed so you cant install anyomre00:36
BvLscipi0 try doing your update now00:37

BvLselekta did you redo step 11. configure wlan0 in Network Center and start it up.01:12
BvLif not, you sould01:12
selektaBvL, im in there now and the wireless thing didnt pop up like it did last time. I only see wired and network proxy01:12
Xaxxaor there is a software client that allow me to use it as a local folder?01:13
selektaBvL, I unplugged it and plugged it back in and now its there01:13
selektaBvL, I have wireless now01:14
xanguahittt: you will have to if you want to reach 13.1001:14
BvLselekta, now that it "works" lets try rebooting, if its not automatically recognized just unplug and re-plug into you computer01:14
selektaBvL, okay01:14
BvLbut before that01:14
selektadamn already rebooting haha01:15
BvLyou did sudo ndiswrapper -m01:15
BvLbefore the reboot correct01:15
BvLif so thats fine01:15
selektayes to add it to the modules.inf01:15
selektaer conf01:15
maujhsnselekta good work!01:15

_davideHi -- is there a package that provides libc already compiled w/ debugging symbols?01:17
BvLyes01:17
perowhy is nautilus so bad? seriously, is there an explanation for that?01:17
selektaBvL, no wireless01:17
BvLselekta, ^ does "unplug and plug it back in" solution work01:17
BvLok01:18
Runemoropero, Why do you think it's bad?01:18
trippeh_davide: libc6-dbg01:18

BvLlets redo step 10. modprobe ndiswrapper01:18
mujee_Ari-Yang after installing cmake from that ppa bash: /usr/local/bin/cmake: No such file or directory01:18
peroi would like to resize my columns, or reorder by size on the first try01:19
perohow do i do that01:19
BvLselekta, lets redo step 10. modprobe ndiswrapper    then unplug and plug it back in01:19
selektaBvL, okay01:19
selektajust typing that made the wireless popup01:19
BvLok then we will make that command run on boot up01:20
paddyezcan you help me please to locate the variable where the JAVA path ist stored in?01:20
perowhy isn't su integrated? or the terminal01:20
perodid you seriously ask that question or did i miss where all these critical features are somehow01:20
BvLselekta "just typing that made the wireless popup" did you enter step 10 before the wireless came up01:20
selektaBvL, it still says connecting. thats what it did last time. I had to forget network and put it in again to make it connect01:21
BvLor did it come up on its own01:21
Runemoropero, There's a plugin to open a terminal in the current directory01:21
selektaBvL, typing modeprobe ndiswrapper made it come up01:21
perowhy does that need to be a plugin01:21
BvLselekta and clicked enter correct?01:21
selektaBvL, correct01:22
BvLok just to make sure01:22
perois there another plugin that lets me resize column widths?01:22
Runemorobecause "normal" users don't use the terminal a lot01:22
mujee_Can anyone help me in installing cmake 2.8.9 or later version in Ubuntu 12.04.3 64bit01:22
Runemoroand for su, you can make a small skript01:22

perowhat was my original question? ;)01:23
maujhsnI have a virtualbox guest "11.10"  on a windows 7 host but forgot my log-in password, How to I get in to reset?01:23
peroyou know what else i can do too - i can install another file manager01:23
peroi'm just curious if there's an actual explanation for the catastrophically bad state of this application'01:24
selektaBvL, connection FINALLY established. took forever.01:24
perobecause it seems calculated01:24
selektaBvL, how do we make this so I power the box on and it just automagically connects?01:24
selektawithout plugging and unplugging etc.01:24
xanguapero: ask nautilus (now files) developers01:24
peroand i'd love to read it so i can get with the program01:24
peromaybe its just over my head01:24
BvLselekta, im looking into that what version of ubuntu or another linux distro are you using01:25
BvLthough this is a ubuntu form01:25
mujee_Can anyone help me in installing cmake 2.8.9 or later version in Ubuntu 12.04.3 64bit?01:25

Rc43Guys, how to select package from PPA instead of standard repo?01:25
Rc43I googled and can't find it.01:25
selektaBvL, 12.0401:25
Rc43man apt-get doesn't tell about PPA01:25
Runemorowhat would be nice would be when you try to open another user's files you would have to type in their password or an admin's password01:26
selektaBvL, yeah because even a suspend knocks it out01:26
BvLok if we ned to worry about suspend too it will take a short while to get the solution01:27
N|onDell320I'm trying to decide what ubuntu I need. 12.04 LTS or 13?01:27
selektaand when it just awoke from suspend BvL I just did sudo modprobe ndiswrapper and it still hasnt popped up in network01:27
N|onDell320Can anyone tell me what I need?01:27
xanguaN|onDell320: only you can tell what you need01:27
N|onDell320I don't know which though01:27
N|onDell320I'm new to linux01:28
RunemoroN|onDell320, 13.10 then01:28
N|onDell320ok01:28
xanguaN|onDell320: stable and old software or newer and, posibly, a few bugs01:28
N|onDell320Is there a reason why some get 12.04?01:28
RunemoroN|onDell320: It's more stable01:28
N|onDell320Well my computer is about 5 years old now. Does that make a difference?01:28
BvLselekta, ok....01:29
Runemorohow much RAM does it have?01:29
N|onDell3202.0001:29
N|onDell320and it's 32 bit01:29
selektaBvL, I unplugged and plugged it back in and now I see it. still connecting though01:30
Runemoro2GB of ram is good enough for 13.0401:30
BvLok after it connects try suspending, resuming and unplugging and replugging01:31
BvLbut dont do  modprobe ndiswrapper01:31
BvLim trying to see what the driver will do01:32
N|onDell320So the 13.10 is recomended for me?01:32
BvLselekta ^01:32
Guest6152if u have older hardware i would recoment xubuntu 13.10 works  fine01:32
BvLok after it connects try suspending, resuming and unplugging and replugging...01:32

selektaBvL, correct. just unplugged and replugged01:36
wilee-nilee So, a epson v33 scanner has drivers installed works from gksudo simple-scan but does not detect otherwise, my guess is a chmod, just not sure what, ubuntu 12.04.01:36

Psil0Cybin..cfhowlett but what happends if the newer kernal after this one also does not work?05:17
Psil0Cybini am just not fixing my issue and hoping that it gets fixed05:17
exostevenBvL, it says no proprietary drivers are in use on this system05:17
Psil0Cybini am worried that it will stay like this...05:17
Psil0Cybini would prefer to use the new kernal .. is that not a good move?05:17
cfhowlettPsil0Cybin, you keep the old versions because new kernels frequently do exactly what you have experienced.05:18
Psil0Cybinoh but does that not leave my machine out dated?05:18
=== siva is now known as Guest56472
cfhowlettPsil0Cybin, no not outdated.  you can use older kernels without penalty.05:18
Psil0Cybinoh really? i kind athought a kernal being outdated is a security flaw? or a bad idea...05:18
Jordan_UPsil0Cybin: Was this a normal kernel update, or from a special PPA / compiled yourself?05:18
Psil0Cybinthats kind of how i looked at it up to now..05:19
Psil0Cybinnope normal kernal update...which is why im confused05:19
CiSensehi, can i keep 13.04 and install 13.10 in a separate partition and use grub to select at boot?05:19
Psil0Cybinall i did was use sudo dist-upgrade05:19

cfhowlettPsil0Cybin, ask someone smarter than me the cost/benefit of new kernel use.05:19
Jordan_UPsil0Cybin: You should definitly try to stay up to date.05:19
greyhatpythonhi i am using live usb of ubuntu 13.10 and mounted hard disk of the system but i was not able to copy paste files, so i tried gksudo nautilus and the gksudo not available. Please help.05:19
Psil0Cybinwell I am trying :P Jordan_U05:19
Psil0Cybinhaha05:19
Psil0Cybini just cant figure this one out05:19
Psil0Cybini posted on the forums mean while.05:20
exostevenive installed restricted extras and did sudo apt-get update and upgrade05:20
Jordan_Ugreyhatpython: What do you mean by "and the gksudo not available."?05:20
greyhatpythongksudo was not pre-installed in ubuntu 13.1005:20
greyhatpythonhow can i get root privilages with ubuntu live?05:21

BvLJordan_U, sudo apt-get install gksu05:23
Jordan_Ugreyhatpython: Please pastebin the exact output.05:23
greyhatpythonI don't have internet on that system05:23
greyhatpythonThe problem is simple i don't internet on that system and i want to copy a file from that system to my pendrive.05:24
Jordan_Ugreyhatpython: You can use sudo and cp from the terminal to copy files.05:24
sozuHi, anybody know why Conky disappear? Using some scripts on the desktop, but if I change to internet browser and then back again to desktop (ctrl+super+d), the conky scripts are gone again, and need to be re-launched by terminal or command to make it get back.05:25
greyhatpython<Jordan_U> so i can't use GUI?05:26
Jordan_Ugreyhatpython: You can also use just "sudo nautilus", but realize that it is *not* something you should do normally and can cause problems the next time you log in, but that's not too much of a concern since this is just a live environment, and will be gone once you reboot.05:27
greyhatpythonI tried sudo nautilus and it didn't gave copy or paste option!05:27

[Gentoo]how much space is in use on the ubuntu partition07:15
wheatthinas this is #ubuntu, I'd recommend that :)07:15
Psil0Cybinhow can i find out forsure07:15
Psil0Cybinwhat is the proper command07:15
Jordan_UPsil0Cybin: That's nonsense. You can resize an ext4 partition, and the order that the partitions were created in doesn't change that. The only possible issue is that it requires *much* more moving of data to resize "to the left" (it's easier to resize into free space at the end of a drive than the beginning).07:15
Psil0Cybinoh really??07:16
Psil0Cybinsee i know nothing about resizing hard drives properly07:16
Psil0Cybinand partitions :(07:16
[Gentoo]Psil0Cybin: it can take a long long time07:16
Psil0Cybinso...ill leave it running all day and night07:16
Psil0Cybini dont mind07:16
Jordan_UPsil0Cybin: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l".07:16
Psil0CybinJordan_U: http://pastebin.com/xjGXdbNi07:17
Psil0Cybini am just wondering if it is better to format and backup everything (themes,changes,etc)07:18
Psil0Cybinthen do the task of making a new partition moving it all over, and back and forth07:19
Jordan_UPsil0Cybin: You should already have backups of anything important.07:19
Psil0CybinThat is true.07:19
hitsujiTMOPsil0Cybin: have you 320gb free on an external drive? you can dd the entire disk to an image and be free to do whatever knowing you can always go back to your backup07:19
Psil0CybinhitsujiTMO: that is very true07:20
Psil0Cybinnever thougth of that but i do not07:20
Psil0Cybinhow long would it take to make a image that big07:20
Psil0Cybinlmao07:20
Jordan_UPsil0Cybin: It depends on how long you think it will take you to get back to the state you want. It will almost certainly be faster to re-install than to move 64 GiB of data, but configuring things from a fresh install to what you want is another question.07:20
Psil0Cybinthat is true07:21
Psil0Cybinperhaps i will do a fresh install07:21
BuntuFuntuUbuntu resides on my laptops 225gb HDD07:21
hitsujiTMOPsil0Cybin: prob about 3 to 6 hours depending07:21
Psil0Cybinand just encrypt my partition from the start ;) to make it worth it07:21

Psil0Cybini guess now that i know moe about linux07:22
Psil0Cybina fresh install would be better..07:22

Psil0Cybini want windows to gtfo07:23
Psil0Cybinonly thing you need windows for07:23
[Gentoo]is antivirus07:24
Psil0Cybinis a 10gb partition with only adobe photoshop07:24
Psil0Cybindisconnect it from the internet07:24
Psil0Cybinthats thats the only use for windows for me07:24
Psil0Cybinonly till gimp gets a little better.07:24
Psil0Cybinthen windows is obsolete in my eyes.07:24
[Gentoo]gimp will never be anywhere near as good as photoshop07:24
Psil0Cybinwell tell bill he can say thanks to adobe07:24
[Gentoo]but photoshop is one of them programs07:24
Psil0Cybinbecause without adobe hes nothing :)07:24

Psil0Cybinsorry the old kerne;l worked fine so i never played with this stuff before08:04
wheatthinahh ok, if the old kernel worked fine, then you need to reinstall your graphics drivers for the newer kernel08:05

Psil0Cybinbut would i then have to reinstall it every kernel update?08:06

FreezeSActionParsnip: the problem started with php http, I've noticed it's extremely slow10:11
Jordan_Ualfonsojon: ShapeShifter499: It's very unlikely that your Ubuntu partiton started at 32.8 KiB into the drive, so the current start of /dev/sda1 does not match the previous start of sda1, also it's only 1 GiB large. So the current /dev/sda1 is not helpful. Trying to find offsets relative to /dev/sda won't likely help either. I recommend that you use testdisk, or GParted and GPart, to try to recreate the proper partition table, then ...10:11

Jordan_Ualfonsojon: ShapeShifter499: I've never used the feature of GParted before, but I would expect it to work. I have used testisk with success multiple times, but the interface is (IHMO) hard to work with. If you want to go with testdisk, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step is a good guide.

ActionParsnipPaulus68_1: where, so they can be contacted and corrected.10:32
FreezeSActionParsnip: yes, I tried several sites, that was just an example. The problem is that dns solving in wget or curl is somehow different from ping10:32

alfonsojonubuntu8989: Boot into Windows, run chkdsk C:10:43
alfonsojonUbuntu will not touch a corrupted Windows partition.10:43
ShapeShifter499alfonsojon: there is a 1gb "unknown" partition with the same label as my debian iso, and a 464gb "unallocated" space10:43
alfonsojonThat's not good.10:43
Jordan_Ualfonsojon: Yes, because it's from the debian image's partition table, not ShapeShifter499's original one. See the output of "sudo parted -l" they posted earlier. That's why you need to run GParted's partition recovery first, to find the proper start and end for the original parititon, after which fsck can do its job properly.10:44
alfonsojonNevermind then, I thought it maintained the structure of the old partitions10:44

IJNXI'm trying to make automatic script to install couchdb from sources...12:19
RoryIJNX: You could modify the Makefile12:20
IJNXRory: not really since I'm downloading sources from url, then untarrin and then running configure + make install.12:23
IJNXNow I wouldn't like to do see scripts for every new version that is available in the future.12:23
RoryIJNX: Do you mean "set username" as in chown?12:24
IJNXI wan't the log file and database directory to be accessible for couchdb user12:24
IJNXinstall script is run by root and those files become "root" owned.12:24
IJNXnow I have solved some of it file by file altering afterwards, which feel quite backward way of doing it.12:25
RoryIJNX: See, your initial question depends on the configure script provided by the program. There may be a way of doing it; does the source come with a README or INSTALL file which explains available configure flags?12:26
IJNXand since most of the databases are run nowadays by a specific user, I was hoping there is "standard" way of installing it via ./configure --setuser=couchdb12:26
chrisfergusonflOkay.12:27
IJNXRory: the script doesn't have any user specfic.12:28
IJNXexcept: --bindir12:28
RoryIJNX: Then adding the relevant "chown" commands to your script would be the best way12:28
IJNXyes, that what I was afraid of.12:28
IJNXI wonder how apt-get does that12:28
Rorywell apt-get doesn't build the sources from upstream, it just installs binaries built by Ubuntu12:29
IJNXthat's true.12:29

dewdgang-frankyes thats what I asked in the beginning. But I dont know how exactly12:44
RoryWell they wouldn't be automatically installed, you'd still need to install a folder full of .deb files12:44
dewdgang-frankas far as I remember it cant be more than 2-3 files that are needed to run the Bitcoin-QT client (bitcoin.org)12:44
dewdgang-frank:/12:45
Rorydewdgang-frank: Run "sudo apt-get clean" to empty the cache directory12:45

Rorydewdgang-frank: Then run "sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt" or whatever, and the deb files will be in /var/cache/apt/archives you can copy them out12:46
dewdgang-frankDJones I dont have any option to do it with a USB drive. Thats why I use the DVD/CD Boot method. And I can use the CD or DVD in the future again to create more paper wallet for bitcoin storage, because the CD/DVD will always be clean12:46
dewdgang-frankRory yes I already tried sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt and just doesnt work12:47
Rorydewdgang-frank: Why not? Did you copy out the .deb files and try to install them on the live system?12:47

meteors2313thanks i'll try chatzilla13:20
philinuxmeteors2313: see this http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu13:20
meteors2313I tried xchat but it's too buggy and often crashes on my ubuntu gnome13:20
meteors2313also it does not integrate with the notification centre13:21
cfhowlettmeteors2313, a web based irc, as you requested will NOT integrate.13:21
ShapeShifter499ActionPa1snip: you mentioned testdisk right?13:21
meteors2313cfhowlett: yah that's ok but it often crashed13:22
Rosettafreakynl: So I changed my number to 0 and it said I have no name anymore so I changed it back to make sure everything worked like it did before just wondering would I need to delete the root user on the list of passwd?13:22
cfhowlettmeteors2313, you're confusing.  If you want web based irc = no integration ...13:22
philinuxmeteors2313: you might have not installed xchat-indicator13:23
meteors2313cfhowlett: and that was cause of some bug in notification when i clicked in the message tray it(xchat) opened and crashed13:23
meteors2313philinux: i did sudo apt-get install xchat13:23
freakynlalexbeck: no offense but uh I think you still need to learn how to report errors after 10 years of trying. That's probably why it took so long in the first place :). You don't even mention what error - just that you had one. Unless there's psychics here you won't get help13:23
meteors2313so i thought that web irc would be a better option13:24
freakynlRosetta: nah multiple users with same UID will work - just might get confusing. Deleting root is bad, apps might depend on it, so might scripts etc.13:24
philinuxmeteors2313: xchat-indicator is optional it's not a dependency of xchat13:25
Rosettafreakynl: Brillant thank you so much ;)13:25

cfhowlett!nounity|Reliant,14:07
ubottuReliant,: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default.  To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic14:07

ReliantI use cinnamon, but from reading up on my problem, it conflicts with Unity, causing nothing to work14:08
josh__Nanor, possibly. If it's an incompatibility between your drivers and xrandr you're going to have some problems14:08
k1l_Reliant: unity is a desktop enviroment. you can install another desktop and choose that one on logincreen14:08
bgardnerReliant: They (xubuntu, kubuntu, lubuntu) can all coexist, no need to reinstall.14:08
ReliantI don't even get the login screen14:08

ActionPa1snipfreakynl: could try unloading then reloading the e1000 module, see if it helps14:10
josh__Nanor, I think so, though they don't always work. For best effect you'll have to restart as you try each combination. I remember on one laptop I had 5 different graphics drivers to toggle. Lots of combinations!14:10

Priestybut when i tried to do this again after restoring the bcd it would work14:36
Priestywould not work14:36
fsloanI upgraded to 13.04 but lost my kernel in the process. Computer will only boot into memtest86..14:36
SmilexPriesty, paste the grub entry?14:36

chenqisu123when i  try installing ia32-libs, it says: "Package ia32-libs is not available, but is referred to by another package.14:38
chenqisu123This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or14:38

keyborad_apemanSmilex: sorry my bad its 13.10 (damn these old eyes )14:38
Smilexfsloan, well, you could compile your own kernel (personally I find that pretty fun), or you can download the ubuntu kernel14:39
keyborad_apemanSmilex: sorry my bad its 13.10 (damn these old eyes )14:39
fsloanSmilex: Downloading would probably be easier (I'm on an old pentium 4..)14:39
hitsujiTMOCoDEmanX: can you paste the output of: df | grep /volumeUSB1/usbshare14:40
beanchenqisu123: yep, ia32 libs is gone now14:40

CoDEmanXhitsujiTMO: http://www.pasteall.org/4717614:41
Smilexfsloan, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.12-saucy/ <- this might work. Go one up to see the full list14:41
CoDEmanXit's missing the second line with information i'm after14:41

Smilexkeyborad_apeman, found nothing on the internet. So does Ubuntu work, but not the gnome theme?14:42
keyborad_apemanSmilex: yes thats correct, default ubuntu does but gnome version doesn't14:43
Smilexkeyborad_apeman, #gnome might know better14:43
fsloanSmilex: ok, I will grab those, but I've never been in this position before. What do I do with them once I have them?14:43
keyborad_apemanSmilex: will try there thanks14:43
Smilexkeyborad_apeman, I'd assume you'll need to download some gnome stuff that fixes it14:43
chenqisu123bean: thanks, let me have a try14:44
CoDEmanXhitsujiTMO: it's also a single line for me if it's a short path to the volume14:44
Smilexfsloan, the image goes into /boot. Don't quite remember where the headers go, let me check14:44
path0genI'm encountering a pretty strange problem14:44

path0genI am booting into recovery mode, then trying to use my arrow keys to select root prompt. When i try to move the cursor off of normal boot, the arrow key selects it instead of moving down14:45

geirhaCoDEmanX: df -P14:45
CoDEmanXfreakynl: i tried that, but it printed the first line to console?14:46

SmilexI got this when trying to upgrade ubuntu - http://hastebin.com/sinuhoguco.coffee - anyone have any hints as to why? (Any known issues with some source, etc)14:48
Nanorjosh__, Hey buddy, fixed the problem :)14:48
CoDEmanXfreakynl: that's right, but it doesn't seem to work with grep + awk14:48
hitsujiTMOCoDEmanX: can you df | pastebinit               i'm wonderin is df output only that way if going to tty14:48
Nanorjosh__, Still think I'm having that fan issue. There's no system load to speak of and the GPU is at 48C14:48
josh__Nanor, grea14:48
freakynlCoDEmanX: are you on a fixed width console (as in not a xterm or something of which you can increase the size)? It's breaking up to keep the columns right. Might mess around with --output too and the -P option mentioned by geirha14:48
hitsujiTMOCoDEmanX: if not i have a way that will work14:48
josh__Nanor, great! Though the fan is a problem.14:49
Smilexfsloan, looks like the headers go into /usr/src. Look at this -> http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/linux-headers-3.12.0-2-generic/filelist14:49
ActionPa1snipCoDEmanX: use:  df -h   easier to read :)14:49
Smilexkeyborad_apeman, I don't think GNOME cares about Grub. I could be wrong though14:50
CoDEmanXhitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.com/LPrJEhST14:50
keyborad_apemanSmilex: seams I'm on my own ( they do not )14:50
geirhaActionPa1snip: Will still break long values into multiple lines. -P avoids that, but can be used in combination with -h14:50
fsloanSmilex: Ah, got it -- thanks. So once I put the kernel/headers in the right place, is there anything else I have to do? (Currently no entry in grub)14:50
hitsujiTMOCoDEmanX: and what about: df -P | pastebinit14:51
Nanorjosh__, anything you would recommend for setting fan speeds?14:51
josh__Nanor, I have to go now14:51
Nanorjosh__, No problem :)14:51
josh__Nanor, I have a lecture in 1014:51
Smilexfsloan, run grub, it will find it14:51
josh__I'll be back later, but I hope your problem fixes up14:51
fsloanexcellent. I'll get to work -- thanks!14:51
Smilexfsloan, don't remember the exact command to run grub though14:51
CoDEmanXhitsujiTMO: -P seems to do the trick!14:51
toafanI know there's a way to manually mark partitions (or maybe even entire disks?) to be fsck'd when the system reboots, but I don't remember anything else  about it.  help?14:51
josh__Nanor, maybe try using a system manager/ task manager to find out what's running so high14:52
CoDEmanXhitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.com/enkUK0Wg14:52
hitsujiTMOCoDEmanX: you can thank geirha for that14:52
toafanSmilex, fsloan: I think update-grub might do it14:52
CoDEmanXgeirha: thanks for the multi line hint!!14:52
fsloanSmilex: there's a lot of "grub-*", "grub-setup" looks promising14:52
fsloantoafan: Ah, update-grub sounds even more promising :)14:53
keyborad_apemanSmilex: checking fstab and it does have all the lnes needed to boot and they are also correct14:53
path0genbooting into recovery mode, when i try to move the arrow down to "root shell prompt", it just boots into normal. The console is taking my down arrow as an enter command14:53
* keyborad_apeman confused14:53
CoDEmanXActionPa1snip: it's not about readability, i need to let a php script determine free space on a mounted network device14:53
CoDEmanXand for that, i has to be a fixed size (ie. always bytes)14:53
hitsujiTMOCoDEmanX: so does this do it fot you?: df -P | grep "/volumeUSB1/usbshare" | awk '{ print $4 }'14:53
geirhadon't do grep|awk though, just use awk when you first use awk14:54
geirhaCoDEmanX: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/094   not ubuntu specific, but highlights some problems with parsing df output14:55
CoDEmanXhitsujiTMO: looks good!14:56

SmilexNanor, what issues do you have with the open source drivers?14:59
path0gentrying to do to root shell prompt at boot: it still asks me for the root pw...14:59
CoDEmanXbut what does this mean? Explicitly select a file system.14:59
hitsujiTMONanor, not risky, just can be problematic during dist-upgrades or do-release-upgrades. fglrx has crap 2d acceleration too14:59
NanorSmilex, None, yet. I'm just wondering if they're suitable for gaming.14:59
SmilexNanor, they are faster than fglrx15:00
hitsujiTMONanor: when you say gaming what type of games exactly?15:00
SmilexOr so I was told15:00
NanorhitsujiTMO, Dota 215:00

SmilexNanor, however, if you haven't upgraded to 13.10, then do that first15:11

coda23ok jetpax, did you try to navigate to it using the file manger? should be in /mnt or /media I would think, not used a live cd for a while15:13

SmilexNanor, reverting is easy. Just don't replace your current kernel, use grub-update, and there should be a new grub entry for the kernel. There might even be kernel images compiled for you, which almost makes it hassle free15:24
TJ-toafan: Then un-mount the file-systems you need to check, then run "fsck" on each one15:24

ezra-sRFC3675, a ver ignorant question17:14
LjLRFC3675: what do you mean by weak?17:14
wafflejockTabletIt is a fork of Debian, not sure what a weak fork is17:14
LjLezra-s: not the place to call people name17:14

muktihitsujiTMO: when it shows 'Your.Server.IP.254', is it saying to only use the first three octets, and put'254' as the last octet?17:16
ezra-sone just can't come, spit a simple sentence about a problem with no data whatsoever and expect someone will squeeze their brain to solve the problem.. either that or say Linux/ubuntu/whatever is faulty17:16
hitsujiTMOmukti: thats specific to that scenario. you put the defaultgateway there17:16
ezra-show easy and ignorant17:16
muktihitsujiTMO: ah, okay17:16
* ezra-s lets go17:17
LjLezra-s: anyway, i'm not sure Ubuntu can be technically called a "fork", because it didn't take Debian's base at some point, and then work on it separately. instead, Ubuntu takes Debian's base (debian unstable/sid, specifically) after every release, and changes it for their release17:17
RFC3675ezra-s: I'm pretty sure it's unity's fault17:17
hitsujiTMOmukti: in that scenario ... its a /24 network and .254 is the default gw17:17
LjLi mean RFC367517:17
ezra-sLjl, I never said anything about forks17:17
ezra-sLjl, you are looking at the wrong person17:17

ikoniawentknweqt_: I didn't think so,17:54
wentknweqt_er, showpkg17:54
wafflejockTabletI went from 5.3 to 5.5 its not in the main repos17:54
ikoniawentknweqt_: the idea is you use the packages shipped with the distribution, and I'm not aware of 13.10 having a 5.4 package,17:54
ikoniawafflejockTablet: yes, that's an "upgrade" and it's probably using an external PPA17:54
wentknweqt_5.4 is a downgrade. 5.5 is in 13.10 main i think17:55
ikoniawentknweqt_: yes, and I don't think there is a 5.4 package17:55
wentknweqt_erh, okay, i guess it's time to make it from source and run php 5.4 side by side with 517:57
wentknweqt_err 5.5.17:57
wafflejockTabletWhat problems in 5.5?17:57
wentknweqt_Laravel 3.x doesn't work because they decided to use yield as a method name before it became a keyword.17:57

zykotick9!virus | Natalie_ yes clam will work.  but why?18:47
ubottuNatalie_ yes clam will work.  but why?: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus18:47
daftykinsNatalie_: if you absolutely insist on using AV, then yes packages exist for ClamAV so it should work fine.18:48
wilmingtinTJ-: still "vgchange" or "pvchange?18:48
adamkjoossee: As I said, both the open source radeon driver and the proprietary fglrx driver support multiple monitors.  I'd need to see the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from when you are using the radeon driver to tell you why you can't configure dual monitors.18:49
TJ-wilmingtin: Yes. pvscan looks for all physical volumes... "vgchange -ay" activates all found volume groups18:49
vershanhi i have a HP Pavilion dv7-4150si Entertainment Notebook PC and installed ubuntu 13.10 and looking for hardware support. The touchpad doesnt work well (very stick) - graphics see to be ok, and theres no sound - this is the spec of my laptop http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=za&lc=en&docname=c02529139 - i really want to get the best out of it as I dont like Windows18:49
joosseeadamk, i think i know why: I had to add "nomodeset" to grub or else I got a black screen monitors lose signal type of hang which i can only crtl-alt-del out of...?18:49
adamkjoossee: If you use 'nomodeset' then the radeon driver is disabled and you end up with the vesa driver, which does not have 2D or 3D acceleration or support for multiple monitors.18:50
wilmingtinTJ-: ok, now I've got " 2 logical volume(s) in volume group "ubuntu" now active" -- do I mount /dev/sda5 now?18:50
joosseeadamk, ok that makes a lot of sense, except that th vesa sriver perfroms better than fglrx18:51
TJ-wilmingtin: Once that's done, do "ls /dev/mapper/" and figure out which of of those LV file-systems you want to mount, and then you can finally do "sudo mount /dev/mapper/VGNAME-LVNAME /path/to/mountpoint" !18:51
wilmingtinTJ-: awesome. going through now18:51
adamkjoossee: If you say so...  fglrx has a lot of detractors, but I've never heard that claim before.18:51

vershanlooking for hardware support hi i have a HP Pavilion dv7-4150si Entertainment Notebook PC and installed ubuntu 13.10 and looking for hardware support. The touchpad doesnt work well (very stick) - graphics see to be ok, and theres no sound - this is the spec of my laptop http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=za&lc=en&docname=c02529139 - i really want to get the best out of it as I dont like Windows18:53
EaglemanI need to test if my cronjob runs on the days i specified but since those days are 3 months between i have to change the date of the ubuntu machine to test it, but sometimes it works and sometimes its not working, is this becuase i am changing the date of the machine?18:54
tripelbOK so I have no clue how to get help (in 12.04 gnome-classic) so I'll ask here. It useta be that when I went to a different desktop I didnt have all my same icons all over it, it was just clear. Now in 12.04 it's littered just the same as my original desktop and with the same background. I ask, what's the point now?18:54
adamkjoossee: Much as I expected, you are using the vesa Xorg driver.18:55
wafflejocktripelb: can use different viewports for managing your open apps not just the set of icons.. mostly that's what I've used it for18:56
wafflejockin KDE you can swtich this in the settings for if you'd like different wallpapers/widgets on different desktops or shared, imagine this is true in Unity as well but may be need unity-tweaks or something to get at it18:56
joosseeadamk, yes as the open source driver just black screens...?18:56
adamkjoossee: I can't help with just a black screen with the radeon driver without seeing the output of 'dmesg' and the Xorg log file from when you use the radeon driver.18:57
wafflejockEagleman: I'm not super familiar with kron so I just got a GUI to handle the details for me, maybe a good idea for you too18:57
wafflejockcron*18:57
Eaglemanwafflejock kinda hard when you dont have a desktop D:18:57
wafflejockEagleman: ah gotcha.. yeah dunno I installed some cron package believe it was just called Kron and it added a option to my settings in KDE to configure a job... if you'd like I can do the schedule you said and drop you the cron line it adds18:58
joosseeadamk, how can I procure that for you? I think I can avoid the black screen if I can tell it not to load the windowmanager? (i thought that is what nomodeset did)18:58
fredrik_I have problems with that two instances of cairo dock starts everytime I start ubuntu... Where can I fix that?18:59
Eaglemanwafflejock i am not sure if you can do what i want with cron18:59
Eaglemanmaybe cron isnt able to manage itself, need some external scripts to get it working18:59
mfilipeI installed an ubuntu server with kde-minimium-bare and I wanna install Ubuntu One too. What is the package?18:59
joosseeadamk, basically can I jst tell it to go CLI with the open source driver that is causing the blackscreen?19:00
zykotick9joossee: using nomodeset disables the kernel mode drivers.  text disables DMs from starting.19:00
EaglemanI need to test if my cronjob runs on the days i specified but since those days are 3 months between i have to change the date of the ubuntu machine to test it, but sometimes it works and sometimes its not working, is this becuase i am changing the date of the machine?19:00
zykotick9s/mode drivers/mode video drivers/ if that wasn't clear.19:01
joosseezykotick9, ok ty. this file Xorg.0.log can be copied from CLI?19:01
zykotick9!pastebinit | joossee perhaps this will help, if you've got network.19:02
ubottujoossee perhaps this will help, if you've got network.: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com19:02
joosseezykotick9, i just put "text" where i ordinarily put "nomodeset"?19:02
zykotick9joossee: ya.  but i guess you need nomodeset...19:02
zykotick9joossee: or both!19:02
joosseezykotick9, right, i dont think just putting it in text will fix it.. i has similar issue before but fglrx fixed all that19:03
tpw_ruleshey all, i'm having a slight issue with ubuntu. when i plug in an external hard drive, it doesn't auto-mount. if i try to mount it via the gui (clicking on it), it complains that mounting is not authorized. any ideas what's up?19:03
zykotick9joossee: sorry i don't help with ATI/AMD stuff... best of luck.19:03
tpw_rulesthis is 12.04LTS btw19:03
joosseezykotick9, lol ok ty anyways19:03
tpw_rulesalso, it works without error if i sudo mount from the terminal19:03
joosseeadamk, can I not just tell the visa driver what my monitor and virtual desktop sizes are?19:04
joosseevesa19:04
zykotick9joossee: vesa is EXTREMELY limited ;)19:04
joosseeoh gawd.. but it works so good19:04
joosseequestion: do i need to purge the open source driver before "apt-get install fglrx" ?19:06
patb_joossee, I don't think so; I didn't have to19:06
zykotick9joossee: NO, that would want to take Xorg with it!19:06
adamkjoossee: No, you don't need to do that.19:06
EaglemanWill this run every 3 months on the first sunday only? http://lpaste.net/132118452782917222419:06
joosseeadamk, zykotick9 patb_ ok so just "apt-get install fglrx" and a reboot?19:07
adamkjoossee: When using the radeon driver, do not pass 'nomodeset' to the driver, but try passing 'video=640x480'19:07
=== ubuntu is now known as Guest57580
wafflejockEagleman: yeah tried doing some searching can't really come up with a reliable method of testing it... depends on the implementation I'm sure, would probably have to look at the source to be sure19:07
joosseeadamk, oh fglrx works perfectly other than the dash home button being extremely slow. i was only ytying to fix that19:07
joosseetrying19:07
adamkjoossee: OK, then go back to fglrx :-)19:07
joosseei guess i will have to... is there any changes i can make to the open source driver to try and get it to run?19:08
Eaglemanwafflejock, this current script seems to work but there are some problems when changing the date, for example changing 2 times to the first sunday of october wont touch the file19:08
adamkjoossee: That's what I was suggesting by passing 'video=640x480' to the kernel.  That will force KMS to use 640x480 as the console resolution.19:08
joosseeadamk, ok so I should try that resolution, with the open source driver going?19:09
joosseeinstead of nomodeset ?19:09
fredrik_<Eagleman>19:09
fredrik_I have problems with that two instances of cairo dock starts everytime I start ubuntu... Where can I fix that?19:10

Shirakawasunashafire: There are other ways to install or remove packages, however.21:59
shafireShirakawasuna: I mean that, is aptitude deprecated?21:59

MonkeyDustCorvette  better describe your issue, what goes wrong22:01
wilee-nileeCorvette, No polling this is support.22:01
hitsujiTMOeither should be ok.22:01
Shirakawasunawilee-nilee: I think you are confused. The forum post says nothing about entering options with a corrupted screen.22:01
HelloWorld321hitsujiTMO: not user /var/log22:01
Shirakawasunawilee-nilee: Perhaps you should adjust your attitude to be less exasperated with straightforward questions and responses22:01
Shirakawasunashafire: In general, you shouldn't need to use aptitude22:02
hitsujiTMOHelloWorld321: according to the wiki it has logs but only references the windows version22:02
Shirakawasunashafire: apt-get, apt-cache, dpkg-query, and dpkg should offer everything you need to maintain your packages, if you choose to maintain them from the command line.22:02
wilee-nileeCorvette, If it is a cost issue you can get computer that will easily run ubuntu at or around the same price.22:02

reisioPsil0Cybin: it's not ideal, but if it works it works22:04
ShirakawasunaCorvette: My understanding is that chromebooks just barely work with ubuntu, *sometimes* and after several hacks22:04
reisioPsil0Cybin: it's more ideal than a computer that won't boot up :)22:04
HelloWorld321hitsujiTMO: Okay.  I'll set it up as a greeter-setup-script (with higher debug logging), then re-check the syslog22:05

dmattreisio: does not return anything in xev22:08
nasa01specifically, the install won't boot.  I get "no init found" right after grub22:08
Shirakawasunadmatt: In general you'll either want to do a hack that routes that keypress to a network-manager-related command (where I think reisio is going with this) or potentially install/enable some vendor-specific kernel modules (for example, thinkpads have this)22:09
nasa01reisio, that along with a kernel panic22:09

glycoljuken: did you try making a "shared to others" connection in network-manager?22:10
Shirakawasunaprobably a keymap / layout, dmatt22:11
dmattShirakawasuna: but that was different HP model22:11
jukenglycol: eth0?22:12
Shirakawasunadmatt: Newer versions of X generally don't require you to set a specific keymap, it tries to autodetect22:12
Shirakawasunabut if you think it's failing you can try setting one22:12
Shirakawasunadmatt: you can usually do it in the gui somewhere, though I personally use xubuntu almost all the time so I don't remember where it is. I'd start with something about input or keyboard22:12

glycoljuken: make sure your "wired" connection is set to "Shared to other computers" in ipv4 settings22:13
HelloWorld321So putting synergys as my greeter-setup-script is disconnecting the X display.  Is that good?22:14
maheanuuhitsuji22:15
jukenglycol: how does it know to go out wlan0?22:15
dmattShirakawasuna: thanks for the suggestion, but this is most likely not solution, because that button does not register any keypress at the moment22:16
Shirakawasunatripelb: that sounds like two separate problems. (1) ubuntu is having "internal errors" and must reboot and (2) the cheese app is dying. Is that true?22:16
Shirakawasunadmatt: You should see if there are hp-specific kernel modules22:17
Shirakawasunadmatt: For example on my thinkpads I run thinkpad_acpi to enable various hardware buttons22:17
maheanuuOk, not sure where I need to go or what I need to do, but I am having a problem downloading files using Transmission,  I am trying to drop a video file under my video file, and it gives me an error that it doesn't recognize the drive22:17
Shirakawasunadmatt: This may help you troubleshoot the problem. Keep in mind that you shouldn't implement any solutions until you know they work on ubuntu. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Extra_Keyboard_Keys22:19
glycoljuken: my guess would be it knows that it knows there's a connection on wlan0 and it will forward everything that way, it's a bit complicated, the laptop also does network address translation, etc22:19
HelloWorld321Is the #!bash convention  to name your bash scripts with the "sh" extension (ie: script.sh)?22:19
Shirakawasunaiirc xev can miss some key presses22:19
ShirakawasunaHelloWorld321: If it's a shell script you can use .sh to indicate that. If it's getting installed to e.g. /usr/bin you should omit it so the command is simple.22:20
tripelbShirakawasuna, hi. thanks for responding. yes. I have a webcame that worked on 10.04 logitech. I restarted cheese. again I see the menu but the things below the screen area (which is black) are all greyed out. I changed the cam from being in a USB 1.1 port to a 2.0 port in case that might make a difference.22:20
ShirakawasunaHelloWorld321: The shebang should be #!/bin/bash for a bash-specific script22:20
HelloWorld321tx Shirakawasuna22:21
Shirakawasunatripelb: Start cheese from a terminal emulator. When it dies or has problems it will hopefully generate a useful error that you can pastebin / search google for.22:22
dmattShirakawasuna: I never needed special modules with my hp laptop(s), but it sounds promising :)   ...(showkey --scancode does not show anything for the wifi button)22:23
tripelbShirakawasuna, I do not know what a terminal emulator is. Cheese only quit once and I had pluged and unpluged the webcam a few times. I dont knwo if there is a trouble with what? lspci does detect the webcam.22:27

minimecprasselpikachu: Well infact what you want is possible. Imagine you only have one screen activated in the current session and the second one is 'off'. You could then start a second xserver as a different(!) user for the second screen. First server would be on tty7, second one on tty8.23:05
