[00:00] bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6408114/ [00:01] bekks, the end of dmesg shows errors related to radeon driver (which is IN the kernel, right ?) [00:02] Aliekezhi: You played with oom_adj? [00:02] bekks, no idea what is is [00:02] anonynimity try installing libncurses5 [00:02] Aliekezhi: the radeon driver is just a module, and those messages arent critival. [00:02] the amd64 package? [00:02] bekks, I removed mdadm from boot because this computer doesn't use RAID system and only has one disk [00:02] anonynimity there should be an i386 package [00:02] bekks, but the problem was there before so I guess it's not related [00:03] there isn't all that's listed in the packages on the site is amd64 [00:03] anonynimity you're looking at lib32ncurses5 [00:03] yes [00:03] anonynimity http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/libncurses5 [00:03] Aliekezhi: Then try setting the values I told you, run sudo sysctl -p afterwards - and post a free -m and ps aux immediately when you notice your computer starts to swap again. How much RAM do you have by the way? [00:03] im talking about libncurses5 [00:03] oh, okay... [00:04] thx. [00:04] it should work i believe [00:04] okay... [00:04] now to find the others... *sighs* [00:05] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6408125/ [00:05] bekks, 1GB [00:05] Aliekezhi: 1GB isnt much. [00:06] Aliekezhi: You have 2MB swap usage... [00:06] so, instead of 32 agora, I just type in ia-libs (for example) or libz-dev [00:06] Aliekezhi: And much too less swap for 1GB :) [00:06] or libreadline5/libreadline6 [00:06] bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6408131/ [00:07] bekks, so you mean it's not swapping that much ? or then the space partition isn't big enough ? [00:08] anonynimity no, if you're running saucy then ia32-libs is a nonexistent package [00:08] Aliekezhi: Actually, it isnt swapping (only 2MB) and your swap partition is far too small. For just 1GB RAM, I suggest using at least 2GB swap. [00:08] Aliekezhi: And in addition, setting the values I told you. [00:08] but you can install it using the raring repo agora, right? [00:09] anonynimity ehm, i would imagine so. also this person has a similar problem to you: http://askubuntu.com/questions/81815/cant-install-lib32ncurses5-dev-or-ia32-libs#81819 [00:10] bekks, going to try this, I'll tell you if it doesn't fix the problem [00:11] anonynimity it is probably listing that as a dependency because it thinks it needs it to install other packages. Try to install everything else first. [00:12] anonynimity if you do get it installed though then you shouldn't have to worry about using multiarch on each dependency that is 64-bit only [00:14] okay, cool... [00:14] hello you all [00:14] hi [00:14] hi [00:14] I had to use ia32-libs-multiarch to get that installed... but everything else aside from libreadline-dev, libreadline5-dev, libreadline6-dev libreadline-gplv2-dev went great [00:15] anyone know any good looking futuristic theme for linux,that's in movies [00:15] hi [00:15] guys === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [00:16] anonynimity what happened with those? [00:16] how to instaall themes....? [00:16] hello phong_ === parduse is now known as Guest41833 [00:17] kmix is killing my system... load average is 5 right now [00:17] agora: Probably going to get kicked for this but... [00:17] que fait cut -d' ' -f1,3 note | uniq > paquet [00:17] this is what happened: The following extra packages will be installed: [00:17] libreadline6-dev [00:17] The following packages will be REMOVED: [00:17] libreadline-gplv2-dev [00:17] The following NEW packages will be installed: [00:17] libreadline-dev libreadline6-dev [00:17] Anonynimity: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:18] lol [00:18] alrighty then... he he [00:18] lol? [00:19] so that's what happened with those packages agora [00:19] :(( [00:19] anonynimity hmm, did you say yes? [00:19] bing0719, what ubuntu release, this is key info always. [00:19] cause libreadline5-dev is not an existing package in saucy [00:20] no because the libreadline-gplv2-dev is a required package for what I'm trying to do... [00:20] anyone know any good looking futuristic theme for linux,that's in movies [00:20] whow, I was JUST looking for something like that [00:20] oaulakh: most themes are that awful :p [00:21] anonynimity you could install manually from the lucid packages [00:21] not thats not [00:21] anonynimity everything else is installed besides those you said? [00:21] did you see iron? [00:21] oaulakh, what ubuntu release, this is key info always. [00:21] secter 16 theme? [00:21] besides those 2 or 4 packages, yes agora [00:21] ubuntu studio [00:21] 13.10 [00:21] anonynimity actually just try installing libreadline-dev [00:22] but won't that remove libreadline-gplv2-dev? [00:22] oaulakh, Try #ubuntu-studio [00:22] yes it will [00:22] :(( [00:22] anonynimity hmm you could always reinstall it tho? [00:23] yes, but it will remove the libreadline-dev package... but I have an idea... [00:23] but i need themes only.... [00:23] how about I download the .deb packages for those 2, [00:23] i have'nt system related issue [00:23] anonynimity i feel like you're only supposed to have one or the other [00:23] and I dpkg -i libreadline libreadline6-dev? [00:23] I added a new network interface (VSphere image) to an already installed ubuntu server VM. After configuring the interface (/etc/network/interfaces) I can no longer ssh to the host on the original interface, nor is a web server originally hosted on the machine responding. Both interface are up according to ifconfig. any thoughts? [00:23] but referring to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274692 [00:24] says I need both [00:24] or all 3... === parduse is now known as Guest28221 [00:25] oaulakh, The common desktop here is unity, thanks for at the least mentioning you are running ubuntu studio, changing themes can be problematic just a heads up be sure to keep a list of what you do. [00:25] anonynimity weird [00:25] jackal_af1: Wrong configuration. What did you "edit" in detail, and whats the output of ifconfig -a; netstat -rn; now? [00:26] now, the question is Agora, do I download the package from debian.org or ubuntu quantal ?? [00:26] I'm running lubuntu. Should I be somewhere else or is it similar enough to the "daddy" distro? [00:26] okk [00:26] hmmmmmm [00:26] anonynimity shouldn't matter, but go with ubuntu [00:26] jimgroth, You're okay here. [00:26] =) [00:27] So, I'm looking to change the look and feel to something darker. I like the old terminal feel of green or orange. Any ideas?

[00:29] sorry [00:29] I'm attempting to create a bootable live usb drive on my mac, yet the pc i am trying to boot it from will not boot ubuntu [00:29] geez === Guest39888 is now known as kevin^_ [00:29] i'm using unetbootin to create the usb drive [00:30] in theory, yes, but in practice, no... there's a reason the tuorial says I need libreadline5-dev libreadline6-dev and libreadline-dev... [00:30] http://pastebin.com/a0u3XMts [00:30] hey guys so im running ubuntu precise 12.04, if i do-release-upgrade, will it upgrade me to saucy 13.10 or do i need to do-release-upgrade three times...? [00:30] diytto, The usb has been loaded but wont boot? [00:30] no [00:30] kevin^_, up on release at a time [00:30] one* [00:30] it won't boot from the usb at all [00:30] it just reverts to windows [00:31] wilee-nilee: alright. thanks. [00:31] sec [00:31] diytto, why would you be booting it without it loaded? [00:31] wilee-nilee: I'm unsure what you mean by 'loaded' [00:31] diytto, unetbootin loads the iso. [00:32] oh yes === parduse is now known as Guest92221 [00:32] i used unetbooting to create a usb from a live iso [00:32] diytto, Has the usb been loaded with the iso but wont boot on the other computer? [00:32] yes [00:32] UUURRRRGGGGGHhhhhhhhHHHHHHHH [00:32] almost had it too... [00:32] anonynimity the only thing i can think of is to modify the dependencies [00:33] *shakes head* [00:33] anonynimity i really have no idea why you need an old and new version of a package [00:33] from terminal -- [00:33] diytto, Are you aware of the per-session boot outside the bios, mine is prompted with f12, where as if I want the bios I use f2. Are you alse aware of putting the usb as first read in the bios. [00:34] also* [00:34] yes [00:34] i have done both [00:34] I want to install openssl .tar.gz in my ubuntu 12.04 lts. How can I replace it with the manual build? I use Repo before, its at 1.0.1, looking to manually install 1.0.1e [00:34] diytto, What happens on the per-seesion? [00:34] usb is set as primary boot and i have tried to boot from the boot selector [00:34] wilee-nilee: same thng either way [00:34] pinPoint: You dont want to do that - it will break a lot of things. Why do you want to replace the 12.04 openssl package? [00:34] diytto, What actually happens? [00:34] wilee-nilee: boots straight to windows [00:35] diytto, I have to assume since your using an apple computer that unetbootin is correct, so be that have you checked the sum of the iso? [00:36] bekks: after apache 2.4 and new openssl for security [00:36] wilee-nilee: how would i go about getting the cheksum [00:36] pinPoint: This is the changelog of openssl, as you can see, the latest version in 12.04 is 1.0.1e actually. http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/o/openssl/openssl_1.0.1-4ubuntu5.10/changelog [00:36] !md5sum | diytto [00:36] diytto: 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 [00:36] ocsp stapling, Forward secrecy, and better tls1.2 cipher support [00:37] it is? bekks ? [00:37] pinPoint: Just look at the changelog. === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [00:37] diytto, Can you use other than a mac for this usb loading and a sum check? [00:37] bekks: what of apache 2.4.6? [00:37] wilee-nilee: where can i find the official checksum === parduse is now known as Guest91973 [00:37] pinPoint: Whats up with apache 2.4.6? [00:37] wilee-nilee: no, mac is my only option [00:38] I wants it [00:38] uhmm, is there a way the package manager can download multiple things simultaneously (in regards of do-release-upgrade)? this sequential downloading is dreadful [00:38] dpkg -i --force-conflicts libreadline6-dev_6.2-8_i386.deb ; libreadline-gplv2-dev:i386 conflicts with libreadline6-dev libreadline6-dev:i386 is to be installed dpkg: warning: ignoring conflict, may proceed anyway (Reading database ... 66835 files and directories currently installed.)

[00:38] diytto, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes [00:39] thanks [00:39] anonynimity wow [00:39] that's why changing the dependencies won't matter agora. [00:39] hello [00:39] does xserver-xorg-raring can be installed on 12.04 Precise without issues ? [00:39] diytto, here is the usual bot link that has mac info as well. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM [00:39] Aliekezhi: No. [00:40] and agora it's 666835 files and directories currently installed [00:40] Aliekezhi: Just randomly installing software will not solve your issue ;) [00:40] why the wow? [00:40] anonynimity wow cause it failed [00:40] wilee-nilee: checksum is correct [00:40] anonynimity you're right [00:40] diytto, I gues that bot link I gave you has two links sorry for the repeat of one. [00:40] wilee-nilee: does it make a difference if i am using the 64bit install? [00:40] diytto, for? [00:40] bekks, well installing a more recent software where the bug could be solved is suppoed to be a logicall approach [00:41] wilee-nilee: the usb [00:41] diytto, nope [00:41] ok [00:41] anonynimity im trying to think of another reason that the thread lists both versions of this package [00:41] bekks, it's not random, the bug is from xorg, so I try to install a more recent version of xorg [00:41] Aliekezhi: That would be correct if you investigated that the X server is the problem. I strongly doubt that, since you havent provided any proof of that until now :) [00:41] diytto, Are you using a iso you downloaded separately than the ones given by unetbootin? [00:42] bekks, xorg crash with logs [00:42] Aliekezhi: Which bug? Do you have a launchpad bug ID? Or was your X server just killed because of too less RAM and too less swap? [00:42] wilee-nilee: seperate. [00:42] help [00:42] Aliekezhi: Until now, there was proof of an X server bug at all. [00:42] a reason the thread lists both versions of this package in the command line code box because: android and CM 10.1 may use 1 version to compile it, while the other, ubuntu uses to compile it... [00:42] cool diytto the unetbootin ones have been a problem for some is all. [00:42] ? [00:42] wilee-nilee: i used bittorrent to download it [00:42] bekks, if you like logs here are all my logs :) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1250677 [00:43] Ubuntu bug 1250677 in xorg (Ubuntu) "xorg 1:7.6 crash when opening image files on 12.04LTS" [Undecided,New] [00:43] Aliekezhi: Did you set the values I told you, and did you reboot after that? Did the error occur again? [00:43] diytto, best way usually. [00:43] anonynimity is that what it says? [00:43] it's certainly the quickest [00:43] that's not what it says... [00:43] bekks, I added the values, didn't reboot yet [00:43] anonynimity oh okay [00:44] Aliekezhi: Actually, the "oom_adj" notice isnt an error at all in dmesg. [00:44] bekks, but the same computer is there since 2 years on ubuntu with same RAM values and no crash === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [00:44] agora it says: Enter this in order to get dependencies for building android, please note that this is about 100-150 megs and will take a few minutes/10ish minutes depending on your computer and internet connection. [00:44] bekks, you said the controry a few minutes ago [00:44] Aliekezhi: And the current kernel for 12.04 LTS is 3.5 [00:44] then it gives the code. === parduse is now known as Guest57992 [00:44] Aliekezhi: No, I didnt, I asked you wether you did something with oom_adj. I did NOT say it is an error. [00:45] anonynimity im stumped [00:45] so am I [00:45] bekks, 3.2 was there by default.I upgraded to lastest available kernel in main repository to check if the issue was solved [00:45] wilee-nilee: any ideas? [00:45] is there risk with proceeding without the old version? [00:45] agora's Repo is required for sucking sources from the cloud... [00:45] Aliekezhi: Currently, 12.04 is at 12.04.3 which introduced kernel 3.5 [00:46] I have no idea agora [00:46] bekks, well, what are these xorg-quantal-lts and xorg-raring-lts package for ? supposed to work, right ? [00:46] Aliekezhi: And the latest kernel you are using is a mainline kernel without any ubuntu related patches. [00:46] tbh i don't think i can help you from here [00:46] you have been told that you need to install two packages that conflict [00:46] well, thanks for your help agora.... waiiittttttt..... [00:46] diytto, The sum good? [00:46] wait a minute [00:46] hang on.... [00:46] wilee-nilee: yes [00:46] im still here :) [00:46] bekks: let's say I apache 2.2 installed via a repo then I use a ppa from the internet, will it replace my current apache instance? [00:46] Aliekezhi: BEfore randomly replacing software, you should investigate the issue as I proposed to you. [00:46] bekks, hum ok, so i'll try with 3.5 [00:47] bekks, well the logs shows xorg crash, so upgrading xorg isn't really "random" [00:47] pinPoint: Depends on the PPA, and what the author of the packages in the PPA actually does. [00:47] bekks, and you didn't answer my question [00:47] diytto, I have never used a mac so not really, all I would do if me is look at the other usb loaders that are suggested if unstbootin seems not to work. [00:48] Aliekezhi: Well, you didnt answer my question wether the solution provided helps and eliminates the problem or not. [00:48] agora, how would I open libreadline-dev for editing... would I use g-edit or....? [00:48] Aliekezhi: If it does, its not an X server bug. [00:48] wilee-nilee: the other option is to used the ubuntu guid, but that didn't work either [00:48] guide* [00:48] bekks, ok I'll try a reboot with 3.5 + your options and tell you if the problem is solved [00:48] anonynimity wait why would you want to do that? o.O [00:49] Aliekezhi: You told me you would do that shortly after I offered you that solution already. [00:49] diytto, If the other computer shows the per-session boot and you have tried all its options as sometimes how the usb is read can be different I would assume it is the loading that is bad. [00:49] because then I could change the file name from/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libhistory.a in the .deb package itself, and install it with a different filename [00:49] diytto, Try a dvd [00:49] wilee-nilee: okay. i will go buys some CDs and try that then [00:50] thanks [00:50] say /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libhistory-1.a [00:50] and the same with libreadline5-dev, could change it to libhistory-2.a [00:50] @agora [00:50] diytto, Cjeck the iso size probably a dvd is needed, however a netload is tiny and fits on a cd and lubuntu and maybe xubuntu. === parduse is now known as Guest6164 [00:50] bekks, lastest 3.5.0 is ok ? [00:51] wilee-nilee: i just need a liveboot to transfer some data off the hard drive [00:51] anonynimity but how will that help? i dont think the new version would ever be referenced, but i could be wrong [00:51] Aliekezhi: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install linux-image will give you the latest LTS kernel. [00:51] diytto, I would try puppylinux it runs in root. [00:51] and is small [00:51] wilee-nilee: the windows install got screwed due to a virus and it needs a reinstall [00:51] Aliekezhi: you shouldnt use the mainline kernel unless you know why exactly. [00:51] i will look at it [00:52] it would have to be, wouldn't it? [00:52] diytto, Ah windows, running it in admin per-chance? [00:52] wilee-nilee: windows cannot boot anymore [00:52] if it's installed.... ubuntu references everything that's installed... does it not? [00:53] diytto, 90% of badware is cutoff by just running windows in a standard account is all. [00:53] windows.... windows... windows.... windows... === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [00:53] * Anonynimity starts banging on the table [00:53] bekks, result of apt-get install linux-image is linux-headers-3.2.0-51-generic [00:53] wilee-nilee: i ran an offline windows defender boot drive and it removed windows boot files [00:53] anonynimity well if that file specifically was referenced then it would just take the old version, but you're right if the package was referenced it would work === parduse is now known as Guest67691 [00:54] bekks, so according to what you saied it's not lastest LTS kernel [00:54] diytto, That can be reloaded if just the boot files, but a infected windows is best reloaded with a clean clone or reinstall. [00:54] Aliekezhi: Did you run sudo apt-get update before? [00:54] and I assume it's not installing because it can't overwrite that one file agora? [00:54] bekks, yes === CamC_ is now known as CamC [00:54] anonynimity yes [00:54] Aliekezhi: And apt-get install linux-image install a kernel, not just headers. [00:54] Aliekezhi: Pastebin sudo apt-get update please, into a pastebin. [00:54] one file.... one phucking file.... [00:54] wilee-nilee: that's the plan [00:54] bekks, I pasted only this one because they all are same version [00:55] * Anonynimity starts yelling at the computer [00:55] anonynimity or perhaps that's just the first one it ran into [00:55] Aliekezhi: thats misleading very much. [00:55] you can't overwrite one stupid little file or change the freaking name of yours.... because you're a stupid computer [00:55] bekks, they all are 3.2 linux image + headers and dependencies [00:55] anonynimity probably just the first one it ran into [00:56] bekks: https://launchpad.net/~derek-morton/+archive/apache-2.4 [00:56] * Anonynimity throws the computer out the window, runs after it, jumps on it 10 times, tosses it 30 feet into the air, lets it land on the ground; and sees it doesn't have a single scratch on or in it... [00:56] bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6408285/ [00:56] anonynimity it's not the computer's fault [00:56] anonynimity you are asking it to do something that doesn't make sense [00:56] you mean it'll run into more files like that? [00:57] anonynimity i would imagine so [00:57] bekks, that's what I don't understand...why by default it stays on old kernel ? there is was even some 2.6 kernel installed ! [00:57] omgg [00:57] Aliekezhi: Because newer kernels are to be installed by the user, not automagically. [00:57] bekks, ... so why do you tell me to do it automatically when I was doing it manually ?........ === ese is now known as Rope [00:58] bekks, ok I install lastest 3.8 as I was doing [00:58] Aliekezhi: I never told you that the kernel will be updated automatically. [00:58] quote : [00:58] " sudo apt-get install linux-image will give you the latest LTS kernel." [00:58] "Currently, 12.04 is at 12.04.3 which introduced kernel 3.5" [00:58] "sudo apt-get install linux-image" is a command to be run manually. [00:59] Aliekezhi, 12.04.3 uses 3.8 not 3.5 [00:59] kostkon: Ah, they're on 3.8 now even. === ghanhass is now known as Wisdom [00:59] omg [00:59] losing so much time there === Wisdom is now known as _Wisdom_ [00:59] I was using 3.8 [00:59] ... [00:59] Aliekezhi, This a dual boot as well with another linux? [01:00] Aliekezhi: You said you were using 3.2 and updated to 3.11 [01:00] wilee-nilee, no [01:00] bekks: what do you think of that ppa? [01:00] Aliekezhi, sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-saucy will give you 3.11 read this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [01:00] pinPoint: I wont use it, for the sake of being a PPA which you are going to use on a webserver. It's your choice. [01:00] !ppa | pinPoint [01:00] pinPoint: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [01:01] kostkon, I'm using 3.11 right now [01:01] Aliekezhi, oh ok [01:01] kostkon, but bekks told me it's not patched for ubuntu and I shouldn't use it [01:01] Aliekezhi, where did you download it from? [01:01] Aliekezhi: You are using a mainline kernel as you told us. The mainline kernel do not contain ubuntu patches. [01:01] kostkon, using synaptic with default sources.list configuration [01:02] kostkon, so canonical repo [01:02] Aliekezhi, then you did sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-saucy ? [01:02] Aliekezhi, if thats the case then you are fine [01:02] bekks: it look slike apache 2.4.6 will never make it to 12.04.3 lts so what other options of updating are there?> [01:02] Aliekezhi: Just pastebin apt-cache policy linux-image and apt-cache policy linux-generic-lts-saucy [01:03] pinPoint: Using the security updated packages from 12.04 [01:03] kostkon, 3.11-precise === jje is now known as Guest38498 === jje_ is now known as jje [01:04] bekks: I don't understand. I use apt-get update and upgrade almost every other day. I didn't see an offer of apache 2.4.6... [01:04] kostkon, 3.11-13.20~precise2 [01:04] pinPoint: 2.4.6 will not make it into 12.04, but apache2 packages in 12.04 will be patched for security updates. [01:05] Aliekezhi, hmm that versioning is usually applied to ppa packages === parduse is now known as Guest79778 [01:05] Aliekezhi, so just give what bekks asked you [01:05] so the perfomance upgrades, MPMs, forward secrecy, oscp stapling, tls 1.2 Ellyptic Curve updates never will? [01:05] kostkon, the saucy one isn't installed [01:06] Aliekezhi, i think you got it from some ppa [01:06] pinPoint: you have to read the changelog of the packages in question to have that question answered. [01:07] kostkon, bekks http://paste.ubuntu.com/6408316/ [01:07] kostkon, so you mean there could be some unofficial ubuntu repo enabled somewhere ? actually nothing like this in sources.list, where should I look ? [01:08] Aliekezhi, yeah possibly [01:08] Aliekezhi, look in your /etc/apt/sources.list file and in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d folder [01:09] kostkon: what are you thinking is not an ubuntu package? [01:09] Ben64, it is, from a ppa [01:09] which package [01:10] Ben64, no idea. ask Aliekezhi [01:10] kostkon, actually there are files in sources.list.d [01:10] kostkon: why are you so sure theres a ppa if you don't know what could be from a ppa?? [01:10] kostkon, google-chrome.list.distUpgrade lucid-partner.list.distUpgrade [01:10] kostkon, should I remove these files ? [01:11] Ben64, the versioning kostkon, 3.11-13.20~precise2 [01:11] Ben64, kernel 3.11-13.20~precise2 === parduse is now known as Guest44896 [01:12] bekks: yeah, those features will still not be there in 2.22.x [01:12] Aliekezhi, leave those files [01:12] sad really when 2.4.6 could be much better [01:13] bekks: plus that ppa is untrusted but at least they are recoginized in the ubuntu community. [01:13] recognized* === Rope is now known as ese [01:15] hi, does anyone know a good code snippet manager on ubuntu ? [01:15] kostkon, bekks deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu precise partner [01:15] should be the cause [01:15] ?

XD [01:17] I feel like losing time here, 3.11 is on precise according to ubuntu package website... [01:18] I'll try to solve the problem myself and see if the bugzilla can change something [01:18] I don't think I'll come back there, no usefull help === parduse is now known as Guest26618 [01:22] can someone please provide pointers or advice into setting up two NICs with static IPs on the same subnet? [01:23] any good assembly compiler for ubuntu? [01:24] I'm looking for one [01:25] harushimo: GAS [01:25] thats a program right? === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [01:25] harushimo: Assuming you want an assembler for x86 assembly in the AT&T style. [01:25] bin86 [01:26] x86 and it would be cool to do arm chips also [01:26] harushimo: (Though GAS recently started supporting Intel style to a certain extent as well). === parduse is now known as Guest21022 [01:26] cool [01:26] i'll look into it [01:26] it works with ubuntu 12.04 LTS correct? [01:27] Jordan_U: how is nasm? [01:28] harushimo: I've used it without any issues, and of course it uses Intel syntax. [01:30] Jordan_U: I'm just starting out. What is the difference between Intel version and AT & T [01:30] I've seen you mentioned it === Guest37962 is now known as parduse === parduse is now known as Guest28872 [01:31] harushimo: http://www.imada.sdu.dk/Courses/DM18/Litteratur/IntelnATT.htm [01:32] thanks [01:33] harushimo: AT&T style has historically been the Unix style, and the fact that it's what's used by the GCC stack (of which GAS is a part), makes it appealing. That said, for whatever reason, most beginners examples I see use Intel syntax. [01:34] Jordan_U: thanks I'll mess around with GAS [01:34] you said GAS supports the Intel syntax too? [01:34] hey guys [01:34] heya SrinivasGowda [01:34] I'm trying to install ubuntu along side windows 7 on my new G505S [01:35] Hi, On my fresh install of ubuntu 12 my nic is shutting down as soon as Ubuntu starts (ie: lights flashing then no lights at all). Anyone know how to correct this? [01:35] but windows 7 is installed in non EFI boot [01:35] and ubuntu is installed in EFI mode [01:35] harushimo: Yes, though the last time I tried to assemble a file with intel syntax (made for nasm) using GAS I had to replace all of the ';'s with '//' (nasm uses ';' to begin comments, GAS uses '//'). [01:35] and that causing a problem [01:35] SrinivasGowda: what problem [01:35] cool [01:36] I'll mess around nasm and gas [01:36] thanks [01:36] ubuntu din't detect windows 7 after install [01:36] update-grub also doesn't work [01:36] SrinivasGowda: what makes you think Ubuntu thinks the system is using EFI? [01:37] SrinivasGowda, Have you run the bootrepair and have the bootinfo summary per-chance? [01:39] I'm getting a tar error, [01:39] "Cannot open: File exists", even though the file does not exist/did not exist prior to me trying to untar? [01:40] GeekDude, does the file your untarrng create a directory? [01:40] nasa01: it creates 2 directories [01:41] with subdirectories [01:41] http://www.celticsecurity.net/.htaccess fix? [01:41] errr, whoops [01:41] Did you remove them both prior to untarring? [01:42] nasa01: Isn't that the point of untarring? To get the directories out of the .tar.gz and into the file system? [01:42] GeekDude: maybe if you were more specific about the error [01:42] Yes, my initial guess is that the files are of the wrong permissions so they can't be over written when you try a 2nd time [01:43] or even further: what the tarball is for [01:43] GeekDude, Have you checked that whatever the tar is may be in the repos, and yeah more specificities. [01:43] gimme a sec, I'll paste a log [01:44] Anything I can add about my question? [01:44] nasa01: what was your question? [01:44] Hi, On my fresh install of ubuntu 12 my nic is shutting down as soon as Ubuntu starts (ie: lights flashing then no lights at all). Anyone know how to correct this? [01:44] Log: http://pastebin.com/fpsZHWTv === parduse is now known as Guest18632 [01:46] nasa01, So in other words the login does not work and a black screen? [01:46] or the login gets you a black screen in the end [01:47] No, let me try again. When I start up the computer, the nic lights up (link activity) until the Ubuntu screen appears. At which point, the link activity lights stop. Ubuntu continues to boot - but not wired network available [01:48] It gives me a disconnected cable error === louzimou is now known as louzimt [01:48] GeekDude, You would cd to the desktop and open the tar correctly. [01:48] nasa01: wired? [01:48] yes [01:49] GeekDude, I normally use "tar xvfz" to untar files like I see there. [01:49] wilee-nilee: No dice http://pastebin.com/jaXxcMJe [01:49] nasa01: vz? [01:50] GeekDude, cd ~/Desktop then run the untar correctly === parduse is now known as Guest72993 [01:51] wilee-nilee: how would I run the untar correctly? [01:51] GeekDude, We are going to have to look at thet "Geek"dude part of your nick now, lol. ;) [01:51] !tar [01:51] Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression [01:52] GeekDude, from manpage - v is for verbose (might be helpful here) and z is uncompressing gzip/gunzip/etc [01:52] wilee-nilee: Was I running the untar incorrectly before? [01:52] yes === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [01:52] and you were not even getting to it === parduse is now known as Guest59750 [01:52] Is there a way to pause apt-get update while its running? [01:53] For some reason its running super slow downloading the latest Google Chrome package and I need to leave my office soon [01:53] GeekDude, http://askubuntu.com/questions/25347/what-command-do-i-need-to-unzip-extract-a-tar-gz-file [01:54] melow01, never seen one letting it run is no biggie if installing. [01:54] wilee-nilee, ok [01:54] * nasa01 did remember the command correctly :} [01:55] wilee-nilee: so, it's because it's gzipped that I'm doing it wrong? [01:55] wilee-nilee, if I shut down in the middle of an apt-get update, will it kill anything? [01:55] GeekDude: GNU tar automatically recognizes compression formats [01:55] GeekDude, It says tar.gz there is a pretty standard command [01:55] GeekDude, have you tried it yet (ensuring you're in the correct directory)? [01:56] tar xvf some.file.tar.gz === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [01:56] really no reason we should still be talking about tar :p [01:56] melow01, Only your ability to re update without a reboot and running a -f install or rm-ing the apt === parduse is now known as Guest79278 [01:57] reisio, Yeah, you said it. ;) [02:00] melow01, shutting down a apt update is not a good idea, all it will do is run and sit at a yes or no to finish as is. [02:00] wilee-nilee, ok. luckily it finished. Any ideas if the Google servers are slow today for some reason? [02:00] So, any thoughts on why link activity would stop when Ubuntu starts? === Guest37962 is now known as parduse [02:01] how do I upgrade the rails installed in my ubuntu to the latest version? [02:01] melow01, many nodes between you and the google servers, any answer would be a guess. [02:02] !latest | Nicolas_Leonidas [02:02] Nicolas_Leonidas: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. === parduse is now known as Guest78772 [02:04] hi guys, [02:04] *sighs* I'll just contact the creator of the tar file, hope he has some more helpful input as to why it doesn't untar correctly [02:05] I have a problem where my computer keeps going black screen. it does not turn off the display. but the screen goes black (after about 10 - 15 mins) [02:06] strip that user of their self proclaimed "Geek" status, hehe === parduse is now known as Guest96601 [02:06] I turned off all the easy settings like in the bightness and lock settings, power settings... and i changed the screen saver (which is disabled anyways) to enable after 720 mins [02:07] but for some reason the screen keeps turning black... im on ubuntu 12.04 [02:07] poz, Release? [02:07] poz, 12.03 has a problem with this. [02:07] 12.04* [02:08] wilee-nilee, ok, thanks [02:08] poz, I have yet to figure out a fix I just run xset -dpms ; xset s off [02:08] is there a way to fix this problem? I never happend until a few days ago (remember I had some problems with updating and the background going black and all crazy like) [02:08] What is the best partition format to use for sharing data between Ubuntu and Windows? [02:08] "run xset -dpms ; xset s off"? [02:08] jubale, NTFS [02:09] Thanks. [02:09] poz, That turns it off "the sreen going black" [02:09] I figured it would be NTFS, wanted to confirm. [02:09] I figured out that update problem that I had a few days ago... or at least the cause of it... somthing with cinnamon [02:09] wilee-nilee, is it permanent? (i want it to be) [02:09] poz, cinnamon in 12.04 is not supported. [02:10] no problem, I got rid of it, caused to many problems [02:10] lol [02:10] poz, That is a per-session, as I said already I have not found a fix myself. [02:11] I will just add the code to the statup applications then [02:11] I tried that [02:11] no worky? [02:12] not here but I did not do a pause [02:12] give it a 10 second or so pause [02:13] k [02:13] Also, Software Updater keeps popping up but has an error everytime i try to update. [02:13] how do I add a 10 second pause? [02:15] jubale, try sudo apt-get -f install? [02:15] Doesn't do anything, but does say 42 not upgraded [02:15] I'll try upgrading again. [02:16] poz: sleep 10s === Guest72347 is now known as parduse === parduse is now known as Guest9004 [02:18] so i put in for a startup application "xset -dpms ; xset s off sleep 10s"? [02:18] poz: that'd make it sleep 10s after it did everything else [02:19] okay, thank you reisio [02:19] can someone help me with zsh? [02:21] Hmm. I think it's ironic that my computer running Ubuntu wants to restart after the latest update today... and it's patch Tuesday. [02:23] is there a freeware app that runs on ubuntu (linux) and on windows for making process flow diagrams like http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images;_ylt=A0PDoV6O4YJSYW4AqFqZDWNH?p=process+flow+diagram&fr=&ei=utf-8&y=Search ? === parduse is now known as Guest2399 [02:24] Hello all [02:24] hi [02:25] That upgrade seems to have worked.

Say you have sensitive config file you want to save a backup before editing [02:28] .~backup.conf [02:28] like that? [02:28] Jinxy: YYYYMMDDfile [02:29] oh you mean for a text editor what saves backups [02:29] the default should be fine [02:29] Per stavolta ho provato a vedere cosa succede. Ora esco. Ciao a tutti === parduse is now known as Guest15558 [02:29] JhonPhetenton: #ubuntu-it [02:30] Ok grazie reisio [02:30] resisio, no it's simpler than that :L just before I cp a conf file how should I rename it? [02:30] putting a ~ before it would stop it being loaded by a program [02:30] I just thought there was a standardized format for this [02:31] Jinxy: not really [02:31] some use foo~, some use .foo.swp [02:31] it doesn't matter, as long as it's a name something won't be looking for [02:31] but I like adding a timestamp === JokerxHarley is now known as No_One [02:32] exactly, I just like doing things properly ^-^ [02:32] adding a timestamp is a good idea actually [02:32] hey arvindeep [02:32] think I'll adopt that === Guest15558 is now known as parduse === p-arduse is now known as parduse === parduse is now known as Guest58532 [02:35] Have any of you been able to get ubuntu installed on an hp prolient ml350 G3? [02:36] vAd0r: probably someone has [02:36] its so frustrating [02:37] i isntall it and it goes through everything and when it reboots and gets to where it should load the pc goes blank === p-arduse is now known as parduse === parduse is now known as Guest23766 [02:37] vAd0r, no terminal console or anything? [02:38] monitor activity light goes from green to amber [02:38] its set to raid 0 on my raid card [02:38] !nomodeset [02:38] A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [02:38] how can i fix it if i cant see it [02:39] vAd0r, booting a livedvd [02:39] this server does not have dvd [02:39] usb? [02:39] yeah [02:39] its old though [02:39] not sure if i have the option to boot [02:39] It's worth a shot [02:39] i have an option at the end of the install to use grub [02:40] should i not [02:40] Good evening room - is there any "Current" generic Kernel Headers module we can load to always ensure Kernel Headers stays up to date? [02:40] I am always finding mine falling behind [02:40] grub is needed, but there's a setting in there.. check out the link I ubottu suggested [02:41] cpare, unless there's a brand new hardware in which needs support, then there's not much reasoning to do so. [02:42] every time I update my kernel, phpVirtualbox needs the new headers [02:42] You shouldn't have to update your kernel that often tho... there's no reason for it. [02:43] in the past I have seen bogus packages that ensure the most recent version of packages that post with unique names each time [02:43] well, webmin is pulling down patches for my box, and applying them weekly [02:44] lol well don't let it [02:44] I guess I could stop that process [02:44] so it looks like i have that option if i hit f6 before install [02:44] I was thinking staying on top of it was a good idea [02:44] will it keep it if i run through the install again === k is now known as Guest34185 [02:44] to resolve any bugs / security issues [02:44] vAd0r, if you do a completely new install, it shouldn't keep it [02:45] so how do i make it keep it [02:45] its installed [02:45] im not sure how to change it on the existing install [02:46] im kind of new to irc how do I see how many people are in a chat room at once? [02:46] carbon_guest: on freenode: /msg alis list #chatroom [02:47] reisoio how is your name in red? [02:47] helo how do I set the timezone for an ubuntu server? [02:49] vAd0r, well if you have a grub menu, You can temporarily edit the kernel line and add 'nomodeset' [02:49] carbon_guest That's your irc client doing that. When you reply to someone, and start the comment with their nickname, it's up the irc client to colour the name [02:49] vAd0r, once you do that, you can follow the guide [02:49] carbon_guest on mine, it's yellow [02:50] jinxy like this ? [02:50] thats the problem the only way i get a menu is if i put my bootdisk back in [02:51] Jinxy Like this ? [02:51] hey i can rescue a broken system [02:51] is there a freeware app that runs on ubuntu (linux) and on windows for making process flow diagrams like http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images;_ylt=A0PDoV6O4YJSYW4AqFqZDWNH?p=process+flow+diagram&fr=&ei=utf-8&y=Search ? [02:53] vAd0r, well then do so, then edit the kernel line, add 'nomodeset', esc then 'b' and then it'll boot. once it boots, go into /boot/default/grub and statically add it [02:53] you will have to excuse me on this one. how do i edit the kernel line [02:54] just vi to grub? [02:54] no.. once you get a grub menu, you can press 'e' to edit [02:55] where does skype install to in the filesystem in 13.10 [02:55] Guest26080 this one comes to mind but to be honest I havent used linux in about 3 years so something might be better out now https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/labyrinth/ [02:55] Eliyahu`, same place it always installs to :P [02:56] hm [02:56] i dont know where it installs to [02:56] Eliyahu`, have you already installed it? [02:56] so i am in grub.cfg [02:56] i just ran install from terminal [02:56] do i add it in there [02:56] i dont know the location [02:57] ./bin/etc etc etc [02:57] vAd0r, yes, you scroll down to your boot entry [02:57] evening...trying to install netflix-desktop...the install hangs on wine-browser-installer...any ideas? [02:57] Guest26080, not sure if it fits exactly, but I like yEd Graph Editor http://www.yworks.com/en/products_yed_about.html [02:57] vAd0r, on the kernel line at the end [02:58] Eliyahu`, run 'sudo update-db' [02:58] hmm [02:58] it mostly looks like a program [02:58] do you have an example file [02:58] no program [02:58] vAd0r, there was an example in the link I sent you [02:58] how do I set a static ip via the command line? I thought /etc/network/interfaces was what I needed to edit, but I've done it through the GUI on my laptop and checked that file. Nothing indicating any kind of static ip. [02:58] Eliyahu`, sudo updatedb sorry [02:59] ok then what [02:59] i got a broadcast im sposed to login right now i cannot add the skype login application [02:59] carbon_guest, MagentaMan thx [02:59] and find it on the drive [02:59] Eliyahu`, then locate skype [02:59] how do i locate it [02:59] is it in home? [02:59] bin? [02:59] 'locate skype' in terminal [02:59] where do installs go? for skype [03:00] craigbass1976, which release are you using? [03:02] vAd0r, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 [03:03] thanks found it in usr [03:03] wheatthin, 12.04. My laptop is running mint, but I thought most everything under the hood was the same since I'm running the one that uses ubuntu repositories. THe box I'm wanting to change is straight up ubuntu. [03:04] Eliyahu`, what that did was update the database for locate. So after an installation of a program, and you need to find a file, run that, then use locate. [03:04] craigbass1976, sorry brother, but mint, although it's linux, isn't supported here. [03:04] GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset" [03:04] that did not work [03:04] i can add the acpi thing [03:05] wheatthin, what I'm wondering is how to set the ip on an ubuntu box. I only mentioned my laptop because I tried with the GUI to set it (and did) but nothing showed up in /etc/network/interfaces So how to do it on the ubuntu box? [03:06] craigbass1976, just one moment, booting my vm [03:08] i know this probably isn't the place for it, but i have to say I FREAKING LOVE UBUNTU. In windows, when trying to author a DVD movie, it took 3 pieces of software, with Ubuntu, just a couple of commands using bombono and its good. [03:08] wheatthin, http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/05/windows-vs-ubuntu-12-04-setup-static-ip-addresses-from-the-command-line/ sounds legit, but I'm not onsite, so if I screw it up I won't be able to fix it until tomorrow evening (18-19 hours from now) [03:09] thunderkey, welcome aboard. [03:09] thanks craigbass1976 [03:12] craigbass1976, looks legit, just substitute your info [03:12] don't forget to set your dns in /etc/resolv.conf [03:12] i'm having an issue where i keep getting an error relating to unathorized permission swhenevr i try and mount a drive [03:13] so i can't mount any flash drive I plug in without sudoing in the terminal [03:13] what is the best program to monitor cpu speed, temperature, that kind of thing? [03:14] tpw_rules, only root can mount, unless you make an additional statement in /etc/fstab [03:14] thunderkey, you can try 'sensors' [03:14] wheatthin: i never had this issue before [03:15] wheatthin, thanks i will give it a shot now. [03:15] thunderkey, I use lm-sensors and a conky myself, best is a subjective [03:15] it started after i upgraded packages [03:15] wilee-nilee, understood. [03:16] hi, i've been running unattended upgrades for months and everything has been fine, now it appears to have broken with the following http://dpaste.com/1459249/ can anyone advise me how to proceed (using -f doesn't help) [03:18] birdsnacks, why is the terminal in root, and have you installed kernels yourself? [03:18] i just sudo bash'd [03:18] uhm i haven't manually done anything to this box, i've installed kernels myself before, but not on this system [03:19] birdsnacks, try apt-get dist-upgrade [03:19] same fault [03:19] wonder if i can roll back to 3.2.0.55.65 [03:19] When I use to drag my "mouse of an audio file it auditioned and I could hear the file with my speakers! Now I can't. What do I need to do to correct this issue? [03:19] birdsnacks, sounds like an interrupted update [03:19] birdsnacks, just seems strange that you have a sligtly higher kernel than is the upgrade is all. [03:20] i haven't done a dist upgrade, system has had unattended updates running, it's just a web server that i never do anything special on [03:20] birdsnacks, what does uname -a show [03:20] I am getting an error message: "com.canonical.indicator.datetime In order to work properly, Unity Tweak Tool recommends you install the necessary packages" Does anyone know how I fix this? I use Ubuntu 13.10 [03:20] Linux xxx.com 3.2.0-54-generic #82-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 10 20:09:12 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [03:21] birdsnacks, Not sure myself exactly. [03:21] ahh, birdsnacks did you install something using a ppa? [03:21] What's the smallest server install disk I can get for 13.10 amd64? [03:22] Ad0r> i just added it to /etc/default/grub [03:22] i just added it to /etc/default/grub [03:22] Rallias, The net install is the smallest. [03:22] is that the only place as it did not work [03:22] wilee-nilee, Unfortunately, the datacenter I'm working with refuses to fix the network interface. [03:22] 30 mb [03:23] vAd0r, There used to be a grub.cfg and a menu.lst I'm not sure which is current [03:23] They say "e3 v3 proc's don't work with debian-based OS's" [03:24] wheatthin: what's that? [03:24] birdsnacks, a ppa is an external repo other than ubuntu's defaults [03:24] wird [03:24] weird [03:25] no, all i've got in my sources is ubuntu.com and my hosting provides ubuntu mirrors [03:25] i hit enter and was able to just type letters and then tried ctrl alt delete now i see my login: [03:25] Rallias, fits on a cd http://releases.ubuntu.com/saucy/ === LarrySteeze is now known as LarrySteeze|Away [03:27] wilee-nilee, Is there any way I can make that smaller? I'm working off of IPMI and it's really ******* slow. [03:28] Rallias, I'm not up on servers personally you might try #ubuntu-server if no one knows here. [03:28] birdsnacks, then I'd think you'd need to run a release update, but I'd ask wilee-nilee [03:29] wheatthin, that no worky... [03:29] even after updating grub menu config? [03:30] craigbass1976, once you update grub, it should boot you back into the previous kernel, and allow you to uninstall the newer kernel [03:31] wheatthin, eh? I didn't think grub was involved in making a static ip. I think you've got the wrong guy [03:31] craigbass1976, my bad :/ [03:31] craigbass1976, ahh yeah you were the guy with the link I said was cool [03:32] I am getting an error message: "com.canonical.indicator.datetime In order to work properly, Unity Tweak Tool recommends you install the necessary packages" Does anyone know how I fix this? I use Ubuntu 13.10 [03:32] after adding the static info, just 'sudo service networking restart'.. make sure that /etc/resolv.conf is statically set. [03:34] craigbass1976, sorry man, it was birdsnacks whom i was mixing you up with. [03:35] hello, can someone please help with a dpkg issue? [03:35] cpined, can you paste your issue? [03:35] hey guys, what should I do if I want to install latest version of virt-manager? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virt-manager [03:36] comptroller, maybe this is relevant https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1130926 [03:36] and I think I found that I need to edit /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/xxx where xx is the name of the interface. THat's what it looks like on my laptop anyway, havent gotten into the Ubuntu box to look yet. [03:36] Ubuntu bug 1130926 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "Settings schema 'com.canonical.indicator.power' is not installed" [Low,Confirmed] [03:36] wheatthin: this is hanging- wine-browser-installer: downloading http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-22.0&os=win&lang=en-US [03:37] craigbass1976, once you edit the networking thingy, when you restart networking service it'll change to unmanaged, meaning it'll then be statically changed [03:37] wheatthin, networking thingy... heh [03:38] wheatthin:first I tried installing netflix-desktop and was getting that error...then I managed to remove the partial install so I thought that i needed to install wine first...so I installed wine1.7 and am getting that same error. [03:38] so I was hoping to install wine1.6 but I can't seem to get out of this partial wine1.7 install...it's like an endless loop :( [03:38] craigbass1976, /etc/network/interface [03:39] s [03:39] Hi there [03:39] wheatthin, I'm a little curious as to why there are three entries, and none of them seem to relate to eth0, eth1, eth2 or anything. They're all called something like Wired Connection.

[04:09] does this open my computer or phone to any security problems [04:09] jgcampbell300, no [04:09] wilee-nilee: i did incremental via do-release-upgrade [04:10] ok ... so with that on .. i should be able to plug in and access right ? or do i need changes on ubuntu as well [04:10] kevin, I have the shell installed the classic/fallback comes with it, unity is not really removable in any efficient way the classic uses gnome 3 so does unity from the plugin in compiz. [04:11] jgcampbell300, Should plug and work, the phone will prompt you have the screen up. [04:11] may or may not prompt [04:11] are there any programmers in here? [04:12] programmers of what?

[04:13] wilee-nilee: alright, thanks. i'll look at installing gnome-shell and hopefully i'll see gnome classic. thanks [04:13] no it is not rooted [04:13] jgcampbell300, try airdroid in the playstore. it works through your web browser. you might have to install MTP support from the repos [04:13] i am running ubuntu unity on 13.10...i restarted my computer and now my sound is shut off... vol controll is maxed, so i looked at the sound settings... Output is all the way down and greyed out so i cannot change it... any ideas why? [04:13] if I root my AT&T phone...will it still send and recieve calls and text?

[04:16] jgcampbell300, Ah strange, needs a new battery eh, android would need those services at least to download and use probably. [04:17] airdroid that is [04:17] jgcampbell300, you familiar with XDA-Developers? [04:17] hey [04:17] wilee-nilee, not new battery ... been through 3 batteries and no one could fix it ... after days of reading i fould people with same problem and once i removed google stuff one by one i finaly hit on that was draining my battery [04:17] ObrienDave, no i am not [04:18] has anyone seen wine-browser-installer hang?

I was trying to install ia32-libs-gtk, but read somewhere that I instead need to install lib-gtk2.0-0:i386. Doing so requires me to install a ton of other i386 packages, including gcc-4.8-base:i386. Is this safe? Will it replace my 64bit gcc? [04:21] how do i specify the next directory down in a path [04:21] from my current position [04:21] alkhal, it will be fine. it is just 32bit support libraries. some programs require them [04:22] what i am trying is not working. i know ./ is current directy and file but how do i go say to the next directory [04:22] Thanks ObrienDave [04:22] hi [04:23] vAd0r: there is no operator for "next directory" you need to specify it by name ../FooBar [04:23] jmgk, you will find people here respond well if you ASK a question [04:23] that one goes back down and to another [04:23] i want to go say forward [04:23] maybe he is just saying hi ObrienDave [04:24] can anybody give me a brief explanation of how does the linux kernel is passed to ubuntu? Since I dont think its completely made by ubuntu devs, is it something like android that is developed by google then adapted by manufacturers to their own phones? [04:24] yes, many times ;) [04:24] I know its not a tech support, but its a curiosity [04:24] EX /home/username/labs/ine is where i am located. i want to goto /home/username/labs/ine/working without having to type the whole thing [04:24] from within a file [04:24] vAd0r: working [04:25] dang it i tried [04:25] let me try again [04:25] vAd0r, cd working [04:25] that is from the prompt [04:25] i have a file im running [04:25] running out of time .. how would i mount this "Bus 004 Device 011: ID 22b8:7087 Motorola PCS " [04:26] *** Warning: Could not set working directory to working on server localhost:7200 [04:26] Does anyone know where I would be able to buy a 3.5 mm Female AUX to USB 2.0 Male adapter?

I try to enable "External Tools" and i get in the console: "Could not find any typelib for Gedit" and "ImportError: cannot import name Gedit" ... any idea why this would happen? i see on https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+question/158045 that they say "Gedit default plugins are already updated, but you need to install [04:50] the correct version (3.x)" but i don't know why installing from repo would install an incorrect version of the plugin [04:51] and i did a purge & install of gedit, btw [04:51] Danato: sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata [04:52] i already did that [04:53] nobody have any suggestions about sound recording sounds like you are in a tin can? [04:53] how to fix this problem [04:53] Danato: o.O and System Settings -> Time & Date are all correct? [04:53] My time zone is correct, but my clock is only showing the universal time instead [04:53] we do radio broadcasting and the audio quality is trash [04:54] hello i'm trying to install ubuntu by usb, but when it boots i only see three options (test memory, boot from first hard disk, rescue a broken system) [04:54] Danato: and the output of: date is your correct timezone? [04:54] yup [04:55] Danato: hmm. unsure what would cause that [04:57] MrKappa: how did you make the usb? [04:57] I made it on windows 8 [04:57] As root, can I find out another user's password?

I see some of the initial boot stuff, but then it just goes completely blank (can't get to ttys, no response to anything except SysRq-B) [04:59] Anyone know how I can get it working? [04:59] I have 2 screen savers running, is there a way to choose one [04:59] ifconfig [04:59] MrKappa: that doesn't work for most. use either unetbootin or http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ [05:00] alright [05:00] will try that, thanks !!!

[05:08] Obrien, I did. I've probably just gotta find a setting in Vbox to pass on the 64bitness [05:08] hitsujiTMO, I'm working on getting it on the pastebin right now [05:09] is there a channel for ubuntu audio? [05:09] weird, never had Vbox ask me that question [05:09] hitsujiTMO, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6409029 [05:09] In terminal type sudo ifconfig for the ip it will be the inet addr if it's wired = eth0 and wireless = wlan0 and whoami to find the nickname. [05:10] Eliyahu what is your issue? [05:11] TheyTookErJobs: it seems vt-x hasn't actually been enabled. can you recheck your bios [05:12] hitsujiTMO: found the solution to the clock thing [05:12] That's my problem hitsujiTMO, I've triple-checked. It's enabled. [05:12] Danato: what was the problem? [05:13] TheyTookErJobs: have a look for a bios update maybe. check on manufacturers forums to see if its a common issue [05:13] IcanhazUbuntuplz: im on ubuntu 13.10 on my intel atom D510MO and my audio i ran through my switchboard played through the audio drives and sounds like its recorded in a tin can [05:14] hitsujiTMO: had to right click the clock, go to time zone and set the option "Clock defaults to:" Local === KindOne- is now known as KindOne [05:15] Danato: ahh i see, didn't realise it had its own tz setting [05:16] hitsujiTMO: same, but idk when did I ever change it [05:16] Eliyahu: Hmm. [05:17] I'm not sure. I just fix things as they happen XD [05:17] IcanhazUbuntuplz: i think its the input amplification to be honest [05:18] IcanhazUbuntuplz: i just messed iwth the pulse mixer and set the input amplification and its soundig clear [05:18] Eliyahu: It may be [05:18] Eliyahu` if that fixed your problem, I'd keep it like that(: [05:18] IcanhazUbuntuplz: ;) [05:19] IcanhazUbuntuplz: thanks for putting forth effort to help that is appriciated [05:19] Eliyahu` Thats what we're here for.

[05:25] IcanhazUbuntuplz: do you mind to tell why would 12.04LTS be better? I'm jst asking because im a curious noob lol [05:26] Danato: LTS releases get supported for quite awhile, major bugs to me are mostly worked out. [05:26] Danato: Reg releases are only supported for 9 mo's. [05:27] Danato, 13.10 has a 9 month life span. 12.04 is Long Term Supported for 5 years on the desktop plus LTS generally has more bug fixes than bleeding edge versions. [05:27] index.php pages are not loading by default. instead i am getting a directory listing. what can i do to fix this? [05:27] 5 years of awesomeness :3 [05:27] Now, I am try to execute the script with ./ [05:27] nv_: configure your apache (or whomever) to use index.php as default [05:27] Tells me not found [05:27] IcanhazUbuntuplz: so LTS' may have fixes for bugs not yet fixed on the new releases? [05:28] JordanJ2: then it has another name or is not in your current directory [05:28] Danato, there's more commitment to keeping LTS fixed and running as opposed to the shortlife releases. IMO. [05:28] In current directory has same filename.. :/ [05:28] Danato: Possibly the LTS could have been before the bug appeared in 13.10. [05:28] nibbler, where is the setting? [05:29] IcanhazUbuntuplz: thats true [05:30] Lol it was such a hard decision for me to decide which distro I wanted to stick with long term. [05:30] bash: ./: No such file or directory [05:30] So many flavors of Linux it makes my head spin. o.o [05:30] JordanJ2: does the file have execute permission? [05:30] So whats on the other hand? what comes with the new releases? [05:31] I love PinguyOS but Ubuntu has some great features. [05:31] OSPF: To me the top bar of Ubuntu reminds me of Mac OsX [05:32] I also did chmod +x [05:32] OSX* [05:33] Yeah [05:33] I brought me an Ouya :D [05:33] Nice [05:33] But I still get that error [05:35] JordanJ2: can you pastebin the output of: ls -l and type the exact command you're using to execute the script [05:37] I've just cloned /dev/sda to /dev/sdb, and now in gparted it's showing sda6 and sdb6 both as being mounted on / - is this chan the right place to ask this kind of question? [05:37] hitsujiTMO, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6409097/ [05:38] jnpplf, Is sdb the first read in the bioos and did you run a update-grub in I assume ubuntu on the sdb? [05:39] I didn't update-grub because I was hoping to move the partitions on sdb first [05:39] I'm booted from sda, sdb doesn't register as mounted in mtab [05:39] (according to umount) [05:39] jnpplf, I don't know the whole story here, but is this having the dame install twicw on 2 HD or just moving it? [05:40] same* [05:40] I'm migrating from one drive to another [05:40] I wonder if the clone copied some device ID that gparted reads and gets confused? [05:40] I used Clonezilla, FWIW [05:41] jnpplf, Clonezilla saves the mbr all you have to do is adjust the clones to the sdb and partitions going to if you pre built them. [05:41] JordanJ2: now i'm as confused as you === linuxguru is now known as fr4nny [05:41] Exactly [05:41] JordanJ2: is it a binary file or script? [05:42] wilee-nilee, would a couple of gparted screenshots help? [05:42] jnpplf, Sure. [05:42] Script [05:43] (12.04 LTS) [05:43] JordanJ2: can you pastebin the script [05:43] Sure? [05:43] hello everyone .. just taking a break from being sidetracked from what i was doing and trying to remember what the heck it was I WAS doing (PRE-sidetracked) in the first place [05:43] :P [05:43] good luck with that LOL [05:44] xmetal, spinning like a top? [05:44] wilee-nilee, SDA: http://i.imgur.com/hdj5ePF.png - SDB: http://i.imgur.com/KxqJOdP.png [05:44] Has a bunch of odd symbols in it, hitsujiTMO [05:44] no .. though if i have enough coffee, i do, spin like a top in my office chair when i get bored [05:44] JordanJ2: is a binary then [05:45] How do I execute it? [05:45] wilee-nilee, what I don't get is how sda6 and sdb6 can both be mounted on /, preventing me from unmounting and moving sdb6 [05:46] And I use 'mounted' loosely as only gparted reports sdb6 as mounted. umount doesn't. [05:46] jnpplf, So what has been moved from sda to sdb and how did you do it. clonezilla saves the mbr so cloning it is a waste of time. [05:46] JordanJ2: can you run: strace ./sc_serv and pastebin the output [05:46] wilee-nilee, the whole drive was cloned; I don't get your second comment. [05:47] hitsujiTMO, http://pastebin.com/wJCQUz2N [05:47] <~~looking at those gparted sceencaps [05:47] hmm [05:48] jnpplf you now have two identical uuid sets this confuses grub, can you remove sda foar a moment asnd run a update-grub in the sdb? [05:48] You mean boot with sda disconnected, then run it? [05:48] JordanJ2: is this a 32bit binary by any chance? [05:49] I have no clue [05:49] i am not sure what the entries are, (or what to do exactly) but i would (as willie is already going in that direction) look at grub [05:49] (i am assuming that is not a liveCD/USB running) [05:49] No, I'm running from sda [05:49] where are the linux programmers> [05:49] OK, unless someone stops me in the next 10 seconds I'm going to unplug sda, boot into sdb, and update grub [05:50] And hope that it generates a new UUID, I guess [05:50] #linux perhaps [05:50] who knows how to root an android phone? [05:50] Chris901: #Linux [05:50] Chris901: I do, I can help with that [05:50] chris901, #nexus4 channel [05:50] bring it then [05:50] I'll PM you [05:50] JordanJ2: i bet its a 32bit app, hence the error, you'd need the 32bit libs to get it to work i think [05:50] I will butt-out now cause I am not sure what you want to do (I just got here) [05:51] jnpplf, What do you plan to do with the sda drive [05:51] Can you tell me how to install that> [05:51] chris901, find what you need on XDA-Developers [05:51] How do I PM again? lmao. I forgot XD [05:51] chris901, This is ubuntu support go to #android-root [05:51] You can /msg [05:51] so sdb is what they want as linux, but it's still seeing sda1 as linux and locking it? (I am really saying it in basic terms) [05:52] actually its seeing sda1 and sdb1 as root? [05:52] sorry i confused myself now [05:52] :P [05:52] !who | xmetal [05:52] xmetal: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [05:52] !tab [05:52] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [05:53] chris901, Can you understand that this is ubuntu support? [05:54] JordanJ2: maybe try http://download.nullsoft.com/shoutcast/tools/sc_serv2_linux_x64_07_31_2011.tar.gz instead [05:56] wilee-nilee, when this is done, I plan to throw it out of a window ;) [05:57] I imagine it will get wiped and used as spare capacity for my Windows install, not bootable or anything [05:57] sdb is a larger drive, simply trying to replace sda, but I need to resize the partitions on sdb for that to be a worthwhile exercise. [05:57] I disconnected sda, booted into sdb, ran update grub, problem persists - both sda6 and sdb6 appear in gparted as mounted on / [05:58] i say something is grub is still pointing to sda1 (others in here can put it much better then I can :P ) [05:59] oops ... sda6 [05:59] jnpplf, can you run in the sdb ubuntu sudo blkid -l with the sda not attached? [05:59] jnpplf, By the way when you remove sda sdb becomes sda [05:59] wilee-nilee, I am aware [05:59] Referring to the original drive names for your benefit :) [05:59] true .. otherwise we all can get confused [06:00] jnpplf, I think you have the original sda mbr in sdg and that is the issue, so we are going to load that grub on that clone to it's mbr. [06:00] sdb* [06:00] hey guys, I just installed ubuntu(13.10) onto my macbook air and now I can no longer boot into my mac partition [06:01] everytime I unplug or plug in my power my Display settings program pops up [06:01] when I go from grub to mac 64 it goes to the purplish screen of ubuntu and just stops [06:01] sda mbr in sdb - I'm sure that's the case. Not sure what we're then 'going to do' [06:01] "load that grub on that clone to its mbr"? [06:02] Man, having a livecd would make this handy, then I could just take out sda and resize sdb to my heart's content. [06:02] and why don't you have a live CD? [06:02] Because I'm not in the habit of using optical media [06:03] works the same on a USB [06:03] true ... .livecd/usb could make this alot easier [06:03] USB presents its own challenges for me, burning a livecd would be easier ;) [06:03] useing the media for somemthign else [06:03] whatever [06:03] I might just go burn a livecd, see if that sorts it out [06:03] well whichever is easier [06:04] jnpplf, From the cloned ubuntu with the sda unplugged run sudo blkid and pastebin it. [06:04] Might take a little while but less chance of me screwing something up. [06:04] i know my old laptop cant boot to usb [06:04] anything [06:04] wilee-nilee, you don't think burning off a disc would be easier? [06:04] jnpplf, no [06:04] Excellent. Then back in a tick. [06:05] Hello [06:05] hi [06:06] fixed my boot time darkscreen issue by setting nomodeset. Now the screen is dark when it wakes up from suspended state. [06:08] wilee-nilee, http://pastie.org/8476648 === Thor|Away is now known as Thorium220 [06:08] obv. that is what we've been calling sdb [06:08] danny [06:08] when I try to start xorg, it hangs (is killable) and I get an error like this: gnome-settings-[6826]: segfault at 8 ip 00007fcb580eaf20 sp 00007fff4a766db0 error 4 in libpower.so[7fcb580db000+18000] [06:09] i can't update [06:09] jnpplf, run sudo grub-install /dev/sda && sudo update-grub that should make you all fixed [06:09] i can;t i was try [06:09] zack_, we cant help. (details!) [06:09] !details|zack_, [06:09] zack_,: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [06:09] HI all, what does /etc/modules do [06:10] and what is the meaning of lp and option in it, it should be option or options? [06:10] wilee-nilee, are you hoping for that to change the output of blkid? [06:10] jnpplf, No to make sure that the grub from that clone is the bootloader in it's mbr. [06:11] I don't understand how that makes a difference if I'm booting from sda, not sdb? Will re-attach and try it though. [06:11] kakka: its a list of kernel modules that are forced to load [06:11] jnpplf, Do not reattach sda [06:11] If I'm not booted from sda, how do I resize the partitions on sdb? [06:11] i know only one meaning RTC, real time clock and USBSERIAL which load USB to serial modules at boot, but my 3g modem does not get detected automatically after reboot, i have to unplug it and plug it again, and after few seconds , my modem get detected in the modem manager, what is the problem [06:11] ok what can i do [06:12] hitsujiTMO: Yes, but what is the meaning of lp in it [06:12] jnpplf, That you will do with a live cd, this will fix the grub boot so the cloed new drive workd correctly, so you can wipe the sda or what ever you want to do with it. [06:12] my password is [06:12] hitsujiTMO: what does it do [06:12] i love u [06:12] wilee-nilee, OK, so onwards with the livecd plan. [06:12] WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! liblua5.2-0 liblua5.2-dev [06:12] Think I've got it from here then - thanks for the help. [06:12] So, what's up with this? [06:12] jnpplf, trying yes but do that command to set the mbr correct. [06:13] Do I need to update some repo key or something? [06:13] wilee-nilee, I did [06:13] jnpplf, no sdb right in there? [06:13] wilee-nilee, I'm booted from 'sdb' right now, the original 'sda' isn't attached. [06:13] Oh, you mean in grub.cfg? [06:13] ok [06:14] jnpplf, When you run update-grub now you see no sdb right, I mean an actual sdb not a refernce to the drive that was sdb now sda? [06:14] wilee-nilee, correct [06:14] this is like the marx brothers whose on first lol [06:15] i set usbserial to /etc/modules, which should load USB to serial modules at boot, but my 3g modem does not get detected automatically after reboot, i have to unplug it and plug it again, and after few seconds , my modem get detected in the modem manager, what is the problem, USBMODESWITCH works properly as i find from lsusb command, how to get it deteccted automatically, i am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS [06:15] Did the marx brothers do that before abbott and costello? :) [06:15] like, Karl Marx and ... ? [06:15] jnpplf, Cool you are set just don;t plugin the sda and run a update grub with that ubuntu still installed, and resize the clones with a live cd with the swap unmounted. [06:15] i have no more knowledge for Ubuntu [06:15] kakka no idea what its for. are you having a problem with it? [06:15] but i know a little [06:16] sorry i can't help u [06:16] firespeaker, harpo cheekoo...etc [06:16] zack_: did you modprobe the module? [06:16] no [06:16] oh, looks like the module's inserted [06:16] i need it [06:16] if it shows up [06:16] wilee-nilee, I'm planning to a) boot from livecd, and on 'sdb' (current drive) do the resizing. Then I'm going to disconnect it, attach 'sda', assign a new UUID, and wipe it. Then attach both, so that the old 'sda' is just uninitialized space ready for me to use for storage. [06:16] sounds like it is getting detected automatically ? [06:17] hitsujiTMO: no problem at all, but i am having problem with my modem, is not being recognised automatically, i have to unplug and re insert modem to get it detected in the modem-manager [06:17] what is sdb [06:17] hitsujiTMO: lsusb shows, it is properly mode switching [06:17] jnpplf, You don't have to remove the cloned drive to wipe the sda or change any uuid's there as long as the ubuntu is gone you are good. [06:18] * xmetal sits back with a snack and admits he got confused awhile back [06:18] jnpplf, You can plug the original drive in, and do the resize in the cloned and wipe the old one all in one fell swoop. [06:18] wilee-nilee, I'm concerned that if I have both drives attached with the same UUID, and I try to wipe the old drive, it will randomly take out the new one :-/ [06:18] i think xubuntu desktop environment is much nicer and faster than ubuntu. what do you guys think? [06:18] hitsujiTMO: main problem is that, i am using the same modem to connect to, suppose i did a reboot and then my modem doesn't get detected automatically, i have to eject modem from USB port and then insert it again, it works in a way like that [06:19] !xubuntu|serial_port, [06:19] serial_port,: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce as the desktop environment.

ON the scene with the fighter aircraft trying to shoot both Superman and gthe other guy [06:19] the* [06:19] ^.^ [06:19] hitsujiTMO: i want to automate the process and extend life of USB port to some extent :D === ragle is now known as Guest98076 [06:19] jnpplf, Not gonna happen, just reboot and be sure grub looks right and boots to the clone and it looks like windows is there two. grub in the mbr has to have a update run to change. [06:19] never liked superman === ragle_ is now known as ragle [06:22] hitsujiTMO: i set a command usbserial in /etc/modules and it should work , but modem is not detected automatically, this is the main problem, that's it. here are other problme also but they can be resolved later, like slow r/w speed to NTFS and slow ext4 as compared to NTFS partition, there is a big scope to improve in that areas [06:23] does bios support usb boot? [06:24] jnpplf, See, what ever grub bootloader you had in the cloned mbr was not the one you were running the update-grub from. Linus is specific here, for example I have 3 linux on my HD if I get a kernel upgrade on any one of them I run that command I had you run to have its grub the controlling grub in the mbr. [06:24] Linux* [06:25] not a lot of good reasons to clone an MBR [06:25] ianorlin, If it's new enough last 5 years or so yes. [06:25] reisio, exactly, especially with clonezilla it does it for yah. ;) [06:26] clonezilla is overly complex [06:26] heh, I love clonezilla, but I'm sort of a psudeo noob [06:26] i am reading [06:26] i missed some words [06:27] rsync is all you need [06:27] you can backup the partition layout and dd the boot loader if you really want to [06:27] are u try update my computer [06:27] i have used a number of cloning tools in various os's though i admit i am a clonezilla newb here [06:27] true, that is another way, I think it is a matter of taste, like a fine wine. ;) [06:28] many ways to clone a copy paste in gparted works, and just load the mbr. [06:29] except I know what's going on when I run rsync [06:29] and you've no idea what clonezilla does :p [06:29] I doubt anyone does [06:29] true, clonezilla uses rsync [06:30] can anyone tell me what this is? 'http://loco.ubuntu.com:80' [06:30] good morning btw guys ;) [06:31] Morning Pogiako1:) [06:31] pogiako1: some Ubuntu-specific take on LUGs [06:31] morning! [06:32] yeah i found that on chrome settings, for geocloation settings [06:32] its set on default [06:32] is that a good thing? [06:32] i dont think so [06:32] for chrome or chromium? [06:32] chrome [06:32] think? [06:32] it's one or the other [06:32] it's a good thing if you like software personalized to your OS [06:32] and an annoying thing otherwise [06:33] reisio, I will say though that you know more in general than I will ever know or care to know and thats why I like you, I learn just a watchin. ;) [06:33] I wonder if there were local thing maybe you could get an alabi out of it [06:33] You know, it's funny how In my high school, when we use the Laptops.. everyones running WIndows 7 [06:33] it's true, I've travelled to the future [06:33] Then I'm just over here like eh, hey guys. Linux :3 [06:34] "hang on I'll show you how much better Windows is after it reboots again!" [06:34] yeah its knda annoying haha [06:34] Definitely reisio [06:34] i mean ubuntu's great [06:34] but dont spy on people haha [06:34] Lol Canonical doesn't spy on anyone(: [06:34] well if it's chrome, google is spying on you [06:34] you should use chromium [06:35] BUt true, if it is google chrome you ARE being spied on, but by Google. [06:35] but Amazon does [06:35] Along with Various government agencies. [06:35] linking to some home page related to a distro is par for the course [06:35] and foreign goverment agencies. [06:35] government* [06:35] even anti-bloat distros manage to waste time doing that frequently [06:35] "We Mean You no Harm" Google, hehe [06:35] Possibly even agencies on other worlds. [06:35] Like Krypton and stuff. [06:35] spy on you? [06:35] man people do really become evil when they've got power [06:36] right, but while the NSA is checking if you're saying words like 'bomb' and '911', google is tracking how to track you [06:36] how to sell anything to anyone at any time [06:36] Reisio, I actually made a status on FB about that [06:36] reisio, and the NSA just tripped over our little IRC chat [06:36] whooptie doo [06:36] why dont they just do the things for themselves, whats wrong with that right? dont bother anyone but yourself and we'll have heaven on earth. [06:36] I called it NSA buzzwords. We just had normal conv [06:36] the NSA runs symantec on Windows, they're clowns just like every other government agency [06:36] wave as you go through their server [06:36] convos, but slipped buzzwords in D [06:37] where one can find Passwords and Encryption Keys in ubuntu 12.04? [06:37] btw, has anyone been to defcon 21? [06:37] dumbest thing a government could ever do is make an enemy of me :D [06:37] pogiako1: nope, but 23 [06:37] Reisio same here [06:37] XD [06:37] mudge's speech was great btw ;D [06:37] I've never been to Defcon [06:37] trying to go on 22, saving on it :D [06:38] Pogiako1: I have an Anonymous logo as my wallpaper :D [06:38] mudge was from the hack community originally, then worked for NSA and now back to the good side :D [06:38] IcanhazUbuntuplz: nice ;) [06:38] :d [06:38] ;D [06:39] I betcha Snowden uses Linux now.

[06:50] Lol. We're all temporary. We're like Windows. Eventually we'll be wiped. Ready to start anew. [06:50] IcanhazUbuntuplz: what do u mean? [06:50] i currently have no friend at facebook haha [06:50] dang feels so good [06:50] :P I'm saying while we're installed to the Hard Drive that is Earth, [06:50] feels so fresh haha [06:51] there's no such thing as an end [06:51] We're like Windows. As we get older, we either get corrupted or errors start occuring [06:51] haha [06:51] i installed ubuntu with 2 partition one is with mount point '/' and another is with mount point none... but now system is so slow and restricts me to create folders without using terminal. i am logedin as admin [06:51] actually, when u thought the it is the end, from there is another beginning ;) [06:51] how as admin is that your user name? [06:51] Then when we die, We're wiped from the Hard Drive, and Installed as Linux on a clear, blank Hard Drive and you know the rest ^_^ [06:52] haha [06:52] meet_praveen: how much ram?

[06:54] well i need to go now [06:54] Yunno, unless its a kernel update. [06:54] bye guys ;) take care [06:54] hey IcanhazUbuntuplz i pm'ed my FB ;) [06:55] IcanhazUbuntuplz: yeah that takes extra work === rdm_ is now known as rdm23 [06:58] wilee-nilee, unfortunately getting Ubuntu working was only one half of it. Windows was unbootable, so time to start again with a different strategy :( === rdm23 is now known as rdm_felix [06:59] hmmm [07:02] How often should I run Ubuntu's update Manager? [07:02] IcanhazUbuntuplz: when there's an update [07:02] IcanhazUbuntuplz: as frequently as you can without it messing up your day [07:03] updates are good, peace is better [07:03] Going to Run once everyday at noon, and again at midnight(: [07:04] w0w. my 12.04 upgraded straight to 14.04 and... it worked!

[07:06] I must have been under a rock o.o [07:06] nope [07:06] you must have travelled to 20... 14 [07:06] Ok good lol. I was going to say [07:06] dp_wiz: Check your /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades [07:06] they probably have betas in the works already, though [07:07] Yup reisio, Now if I could go back in time to when Linux was invented. [07:07] And I was a rich Millionaire, I'd pour a bunch of money into it. [07:08] reisio: 2GB [07:08] IcanhazUbuntuplz: mmm [07:08] or, without any additional funds [07:08] you could just go back in time and tell the BSD guys to not ASK to be sued [07:09] XD yes. [07:10] 1-800-SUE-PLEAS [07:10] Lol! I've ordered a shirt from the Canonical store ;3 [07:11] lolz [07:11] Windows users: l2pk XD [07:12] how do i edit read only or protected text and other files? [07:13] can someone pls explain to me vim? [07:13] maxb: oh.. there were stale meta-release files on my local mirror. thanks for the hint. [07:13] thecha: run 'vimtutor' [07:13] thanks [07:13] thecha, First of all, which file are you trying to edit? You probably shouldn't mes with read-only system files [07:13] !vim|thecha, [07:13] thecha,: Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) - Terminal-based: nano, vi/vim, emacs, ed - For HTML/CSS editors, see !html - For programming editors and IDE, see !code [07:13] i tried vim man [07:13] thecha, try #vim [07:13] man vim i mean [07:14] ed [07:14] can i make changes with gedit? [07:14] who put that in the factoid :p === nilesh is now known as nileshbhosale [07:14] thecha: with any text editor [07:14] i mean with the graphical stuff you never get to be root? [07:14] no you can use gedit as root [07:14] how do you get back to the roots? [07:14] how do YOU use gedit as root [07:14] thecha: you can open files with a gui-based editor with : gksudo gedit [07:15] soooooo I'm have never used and irc chat before [07:15] you're meant to use gksudo or the like for graphical things [07:15] but using nano would probably be easier [07:15] and I'm scred [07:15] thecha, Before you go editing a system file, be sure that you really need to do so. Which file? [07:15] scared* [07:15] gksudo opens and gui app with roots priviliges? [07:15] pero: it's the same amount of ease [07:15] thecha: yup [07:15] reisio: Next time you see an attractive female, Don't be afraid to say: You can run SUID On me anytime(: [07:15] i hae a long list of files i liek to change completley [07:15] XD [07:15] sources.list is one of them [07:15] I NEED HELP PLEASE [07:15] liamevanspro: as well you should be MUAHAHAHAHAH [07:15] then i watn to change a whole bunch of config files [07:15] like cassandra.yaml [07:16] IcanhazUbuntuplz, perhaps you need to take that to off-topic channel? [07:16] and others :( but up untill now i couldnt [07:16] thecha: get to work then :) [07:16] thecha: you should use 'software and updates' to deal with that [07:16] i will! i will edit the living hello out of these files [07:16] from dash [07:16] ianmac1: I did, just wanted to share with reisio but I forgot the /msg [07:16] how do i convert the ubuntu iso to an img for on OS X MAVERICKS please thank you xD! [07:16] ^^ [07:17] liamevanspro: what do you need an 'img' for? [07:17] !mac|liamevanspro, [07:17] liamevanspro,: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages [07:17] Thank you a lot for your kindly help to a fellow gnu/linux [07:17] thecha: :) === ponbiki is now known as Guest14161 === Guest14161 is now known as ponpon === KacanuH is now known as Guest41568 [07:19] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx [07:19] that's what I'm doing right now^ [07:19] ok [07:19] but step 3 is hard cause I have to use the terminal [07:19] liamevanspro, instructions are there. [07:19] and i don't know how to "Convert the .iso file to .img using the convert option of hdiutil (e.g.,hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o ~/path/to/target.img ~/path/to/ubuntu.iso) [07:20] :O [07:20] @zack_ hi === Guest41568 is now known as KacanuH [07:21] liamevanspro, you just posted the command line for it [07:21] ya but i have never see command lines in my life! [07:21] liamevanspro, Now's a good time to get used to them :) [07:21] ok then show me how please :) [07:22] you just posted it: hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o ~/path/to/target.img ~/path/to/ubuntu.iso [07:23] the /path/to is the path to the files, such as /home/user/blah/blah [07:23] liamevanspro, open a terminal. type in the exact command you posted. press enter [07:23] it says no such file or directory [07:24] what do i replace? [07:24] liamevanspro, where is your ubuntu ISO image? [07:24] on my desktop [07:24] and what is your computer user name? [07:25] its here /Users/liamevans/Desktop/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso [07:25] ok, great! that is part of it. Now, where do you want to create the IMG file? [07:25] on my desktop right next to the ISO [07:26] iImg [07:26] liamevanspro, ok, it should be like this: hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o ~/Users/liamevans/Desktop/ubuntu-13.10.img ~/Users/liamevans/Desktop/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso [07:27] #omg!ubuntu! [07:28] it didn't work :(. [07:28] liamevanspro, what was the error? [07:28] it still says no such file directory [07:29] #epia [07:29] ianmac1: what does that do exactly? [07:29] liamevanspro, in your terminal type this: find ~ -name ubuntu-13.10* [07:30] ok i typed it and hit enter and this popped up [07:30] this here /Users/liamevans/Desktop/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso [07:31] liamevanspro, what distro are you using? [07:33] reisio, it's the command he gave me to convert an ubuntu ISO into a Mac IMG file [07:33] I guess Mac OS needs some fancy FS to boot [07:33] HFS I believe [07:33] theres the mac image, just use that [07:34] liamevanspro, which distro are you using to do this conversion on? [07:34] http://releases.ubuntu.com/saucy/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64+mac.iso [07:34] * ianmac1 finds it curious that his desktop path begins with "/Users" rather than "/home" [07:34] Ben64, Thank you! [07:35] liamevanspro, See the link Ben64 posted, it might save you the conversion [07:35] ianmac1: notice the ~ before /Users [07:35] the point is there shouldn't be a /Users [07:35] hitsujiTMO, I didn't see a tilde: this here /Users/liamevans/Desktop/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso [07:37] I have a feeling he is on a MAc right now. What does a path in MAc begin with? [07:37] ianmac1: ahh sorry my bad [07:37] hi there is a bug in the kernel used by ubuntu 12.04 - 13.10 that prevent me from launching it or the installer on an old atom box; any suggestions how i can install with a custom 3.12 kernel ? [07:37] troulouliou_dev: what iso are you using? [07:38] hitsujiTMO, tested with 13.04 and 13.10 server and desktop [07:38] troulouliou_dev: whats the exact iso name? [07:38] i guess i can install a 11.10; compil my kernel and update up to 13.10 [07:38] troulouliou_dev: whats the bug? [07:38] troulouliou_dev: more importantly. what architecture is the iso? [07:39] I was unaware that Ubuntu released Ubuntu ISO's for the atom [07:39] hitsujiTMO, ha tested with 64 and 32 bits [07:39] troulouliou_dev, he meant the architecture [07:39] troulouliou_dev: what processor is it exactly? [07:40] hitsujiTMO, it is an old atom ; need to replug the box to have the exact version; i m searching back the kernel fix i saw for 3.12 [07:40] how do you know its a bug thats stopping it from working [07:41] troulouliou_dev: minimalcd? [07:41] troulouliou_dev, which ISO were you trying to boot on that atom box? Are you sure the ISO is for the atom arch? [07:42] ianmac1, there isn't an atom arch ; i tested ubuntu-13.10-server-amd64.iso ; 386 ... [07:42] troulouliou_dev: if its an older atom, then you need the i386 iso. [07:42] as in intel atom? Yes it's x86/i386 if it's older [07:42] hitsujiTMO, I'm so glad you're here :) [07:42] I don't _think_ they debuted those chips with any 64-bit versions, though they have them at this point [07:42] hitsujiTMO, yes i tested with it but it is a bug inthe kernel; just searching the fix atm [07:43] troulouliou_dev: you really need to give more info or nobody can help you [07:44] Ben64, yes searching atm :) [07:44] troulouliou_dev: i have not heard of any such bug. very weird considering i've install ubuntu on just about every consumer atom processor available in my last job [07:44] hitsujiTMO: one with VT-x? [07:44] troulouliou_dev: Ben64, indeed. What is the error that you are encoutering? Which version or iso did you use? Is it even booting up? Where does it stop? [07:44] reisio: vt-x isn't available on 32bit [07:44] hitsujiTMO, , Ben64 that the issue i m facing : http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.embedded.poky/9144 [07:45] Tuning for Intel Atom CPU can in result instructions being used that are [07:45] not compatible with older x86 CPUs such as Intel Pentium Dual-Core [07:45] E2200. This can result in Linux 3.10 failing to boot with: [07:45] "This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: [07:45] movbe [07:45] troulouliou_dev: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:45] ho sorry for flooding [07:45] 7 years using linux never had a bug, yet we see these claims daily [07:45] hitsujiTMO: I meant re last job [07:46] goodbye "up 175 days"... and welcome back! [07:47] ark says they've got 32-bit ones with vt-x, anyways [07:47] not that I was asking that... no matter [07:48] Ben64, this is the kernel commit that prevent recent kernel from booting : http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=2b9b6d8c715b23fa119261c32ad360681f4464a9 [07:48] reisio: tbh i don't think i've used an atom with vt-x. the last ones we had D2700 and N2800 which i don't think have vt-x. Didn't use any newer atoms. [07:48] 3.12 has fixed it or i can recompil a new kernel with CONFIG_MATOM disabled [07:49] i jsut wonder how to install ubuntu in the first place :) [07:49] hitsujiTMO: I've only heard of one person ever having one, some foreign netbook [07:49] I have a foreign netbook [07:49] It's made by a chinese company ;3 [07:49] nobody sells them :p [07:49] IcanhazUbuntuplz: I guess you don't live in China, then [07:50] Is it possible yet to use nvidia blob with 3.12 kernel? [07:50] anyone here facing problems with their openjdk-7 installation? [07:50] namrata: you? [07:50] reisio: yeah me .... [07:50] ooh ooh I guessed right [07:50] mine burts into flames [07:51] hi [07:51] mine explodes. [07:51] helmut_: hiyo === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [07:53] reisio: i've no idea really why you'd need vt-x on an atom tbh. Maybe for some odd embedded system alright, but in general seems odd [07:53] well, theoretically it would be a cheap low power way to have vt-x [07:53] ...except they're impossible to find for purchase :p [07:54] and as for vt-x, reasons for having it aren't super great, but they exist :) [07:55] dp_wiz, yes ; just use make-kpkg and the nvidia module will be compiled automaticcaly by dkms [07:55] reisio: i'm sure the server ones come with it alright. they're just harder to get your hands on. I've only ever seen them used in prebuilt NASs that are 500-700 EUR a pop [07:56] oh wait, I forgot the guy who said he had a netbook with one with vt-x took it back, it didn't have :p [07:56] hitsujiTMO: yeah so tedious :p [07:56] hitsujiTMO, i guess i can always then install on another computer; rebuild the kernel and then plug back in the original box [07:56] troulouliou_dev: if there is indeed a bug in the kernel. you'd have to do a debootstap install [07:58] hitsujiTMO, ok thanks i m installing on the disk pluged in another computer; rebuild a kernel and then plug back the disk; should work i guess [07:58] how can I remove lines exceeding 5 chars in a text file? I can't remember the command? [07:59] hi, I am building a kernel by following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel, I am confused. after running "fakeroot debian/rules clean" and "fakeroot debian/rules editconfigs" and make some changes in menuconfig, do I still need to call "fakeroot debian/rules clean" again? Why do I need to call "clean" twice? thanks. [07:59] hitsujiTMO, is there still 32 bits repos for 13.10 servers ? [08:00] sl1ck: egrep -iv '^......' [08:00] troulouliou_dev: the desktop and server repos are the same [08:04] sgo11: I'm curious, why are you building your own kernel? [08:05] Ari-Yang, I need to add a hid tablet driver given by the manufacturer. a .c file. they asked me to do it. otherwise, what to do? [08:06] Ari-Yang, the tablet is not working without this driver, they only provide .c file and ask me to compile the kernel. I never do this before. [08:07] kk [08:08] reisio: I found grep '^.\{X\}' file to do a better job. Thanks tho. [08:08] sgo11, that fakeroot method confused me too i still somehow prefer the old make-kpkg method [08:08] seems more natural [08:08] can anyone help me on this? by following the guide, I am confused. I don't know why I need to run "clean" twice. the first time build a kernel. [08:09] sgo11, clean remove all the compile and temporary files [08:09] sgo11, it won't touch the .config file [08:10] troulouliou_dev, thanks. so why do I run clean? just remove some harddisk spaces? [08:10] troulouliou_dev: btw what exactly happens when you try to boot 13.10 or 12.04 etc? [08:11] hitsujiTMO, i have this message : This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: movbe [08:11] whatever. I just run it by following the guide. hopefully, it will work magically. [08:11] sgo11, no it ill removed all previously compiled modules / kernel and temp file [08:12] troulouliou_dev, will it remove all the changes I made in "make menuconfig" step? thanks. [08:12] sgo11, no [08:12] can somebody help me with fixing some currupted files, i get this when i do apt-get upgrade :http://pastebin.com/9bqbTH5k [08:12] sgo11, btw if you want to get back your actual kernel configuration before editing ; you can use make oldconfig [08:13] troulouliou_dev: hmm, then that would suggest that your cpu is not an atom since movbe is present on all atoms from day 1. [08:13] troulouliou_dev: that or it is incorrectly detecting movbe support [08:13] troulouliou_dev, ok. then, it's ok to run it. maybe my question is stupid. why do I remove all previously compiled modules? [08:14] sgo11, to compile them back :) if they are present they won't be recompiled except if there is some source code change [08:15] donnib, how long you been running sudo in a rooted terminal? [08:15] donnib: whats the output of: cat /etc/issue [08:15] hitsujiTMO, is is an Intel ® Dual-Core Atom™ Processor 330 (1.6 GHz) [08:16] hitsujiTMO, somebody else have the same issue here : http://openelec.tv/forum/64-installation/66269-a330ion-board-what-version [08:16] hitsujiTMO, maybe early model had this features disabled or not listed in cpuid ? [08:17] troulouliou_dev, ok. not fully understand. but whatever. just folllow the steps. kernel is compiling. how long that will take? and after compiling and install, my old kernel will be gone, right? thanks. === BlackoutIsHere is now known as BlackoutIsHere|O [08:17] troulouliou_dev: or is disabled on chipsets with nvidia ion [08:18] hitsujiTMO, yes maybe, it is an old unused box i want to revice as a ppoe/snort/tc/iptables box for a 2 mega adsl connection [08:24] my system doesn't finish booting (gets "stuck" after starting cups, though it still accepts input), but when I start it in recovery mode, I can get everything to start, even including unity and stuff. how do I track down what it's waiting for? === P4tt3rn_ is now known as P4tt3rn [08:25] wow. I did google search. people say compiling a kernel will take 1 to 2 hours. will that burn my laptop? cpu is 67 degree after a few minutes. [08:25] sgo11: some laptops run normally at around 70C [08:25] sgo11: or any number of different ranges of temperature [08:26] firespeaker, i feel sorry to my laptop. I should do this in my desktop PC. [08:26] sgo11: if your fans and stuff are all working correctly, it shouldn't overheat [08:26] I'm not sure even a huge Ubuntu kernel will take 2 hours [08:26] check the date of whatever you're reading [08:26] as for burning, what you do with your matches is up to you [08:26] Woohoo, resolved my earlier problem now, thanks wilee-nilee [08:26] firespeaker, Have you messed around with /etc/default/grub or grub and need to run a update-grub? [08:26] I remember when it used to take >10 hours for a small kernel [08:27] jnpplf, cool, enjoy. [08:27] I remember when you had to flip those switches! [08:27] ahhhh i need help [08:27] wilee-nilee: I haven't messed around with grub's config files, though grub is now 64bit when it used to be 32bit on the same system [08:28] firespeaker, what? [08:28] wilee-nilee: but no, I've updated grub a million times since then [08:28] wilee-nilee: ignore all that. it's not grub. it loads the kernel and userland stuff just fine [08:28] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx [08:28] I'm there [08:28] and step 3 is not working! [08:28] Heh, I can easily do that. [08:29] wilee-nilee: how could it be a problem with grub if it gets all the way to starting upstart services? [08:29] damn. compile error. [08:29] hello? help please [08:29] liamevanspro: can't help unless we know what's happening [08:29] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx [08:30] firespeaker, la,la,la huh I'm busy ignoring. ;) [08:30] liamevanspro: yes, I saw you url [08:30] ok I'm using this tutorial [08:30] liamevanspro: what is it that's not working [08:30] if your problem is that you're using that tutorial, I have nfi [08:31] firespeaker, People mess with the kernel is why I asked, [08:31] on that site, on step 3, i enter the required info in the terminal and it says "no such file" or something [08:31] liamevanspro, Keep in mind that tutorial is for a Mac and you're asking in an Ubuntu channel.. might not be too many folks here with Mac knowledge [08:31] liamevanspro: What is the exact command you ran, and its exact output? [08:31] compile kernel error "make: *** [.../linux-3.5.0/debian/stamps/stamp-build-generic] Error 2", what does this mean? how to debug? thanks. [08:31] wilee-nilee: nope, using an ubuntu-provided kernel [08:31] sgo11: why are you making such an old kernel? [08:32] liamevanspro: what exactly did you enter into the terminal? [08:32] hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o /Users/liamevans/Documents/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso /Users/liamevans/Downloads/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.img [08:32] and what's it say? [08:32] firespeaker, I am using it all the time without any problems. don't bother upgrade. regardless how old it is. why does it give compile error? thanks. [08:32] and then it said " hdiutil: convert failed - No such file or directory [08:33] liamevanspro: does that file exist? [08:33] yes when i used the find command it found it there [08:33] /Users/liamevans/Downloads/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.img [08:33] ls -la [08:33] type ls -la /Users/liamevans/Downloads/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.img [08:33] wait the IMG doesn't exist of course! [08:34] the ISO does [08:34] firespeaker: that looks like the output [08:34] firespeaker, I think it's supposed to be file.img -> file.iso and not the other way around [08:34] Htbrdd: no, the thing after -o would be the output [08:34] ianmac1: well then he's going to have trouble if the img doesn't exist [08:34] liamevanspro: Are you sure that the iso is in a "Documents" directory and not "Downloads" or "Desktop"? [08:34] liamevanspro: ls -l /Users/liamevans/Documents/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso and: ls -l /Users/liamevans/Downloads/ [08:34] firespeaker, true [08:35] I'm sure its in documents [08:35] sgo11: theres hould be more information with that error message [08:35] liamevanspro: can you please give output of those 2 commands [08:35] hitsujiTMO, fun btw i have the same issue on a Xeon x3350 cpu [08:36] firespeaker, I meant I think it's: command [options] /path/target.img /path/file.iso , he has it backwards I think [08:36] liamevanspro: then why did you type Downloads? [08:36] ianmac1: probably, but good luck explaining that [08:36] firespeaker, that's all. http://paste.ubuntu.com/6409625/ [08:36] hello [08:36] 'lo [08:36] anybody there [08:36] hi [08:36] loong, no [08:36] hi there [08:37] heyhey [08:37] hey [08:37] only a few thousand [08:37] loong: 1700 users are [08:37] how many people in there [08:37] sgo11: maybe ask in #kernel ? nfi [08:37] loong, what is your ubuntu support question? [08:37] firespeaker, thanks a lot. will do that. [08:37] my system doesn't finish booting (gets "stuck" after starting cups, though it still accepts input), but when I start it in recovery mode, I can get everything to start, even including unity and stuff. how do I track down what it's waiting for? [08:37] ianmac1: is right. liamevanspro has the .img and .iso in the wrond order [08:37] liamevanspro, have you tried discussing this in a Mac channel, since this is a Mac command? [08:37] no question thanks [08:37] hi so i entered this: ls -l /Users/liamevans/Documents/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso [08:38] and it said this: -rw-r--r--@ 1 liamevans staff 925892608 16 Oct 15:14 /Users/liamevans/Documents/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso [08:38] liamevanspro: so why are you inputting the .img for the command? [08:38] that file doesn't exist [08:38] are you robot? [08:38] liamevanspro, you need to take this up with the mac support channel [08:38] it told you the problem loong before you asked us [08:38] liamevanspro: hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o /Users/liamevans/Documents/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64-mac.img /Users/liamevans/Documents/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso [08:39] loong, if you don't have a support question, you might be happier in ubuntu-offtopic [08:39] i did htis apt-get install python3.1 [08:39] omfg!!!

[09:15] liamevanspro: Please keep the language friendly, swearing isn't considered appropriate for the Ubuntu channels [09:15] !ot | liamevanspro [09:15] liamevanspro: #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! [09:16] hey, is there any way to make Ubuntu faste? [09:17] Ubunto is slowe? [09:17] im running a netbook with 1 gig of ram, and it seems like windows 7 actually runs faster on it [09:17] faste? [09:17] Organicanarchy: i might reccomend you installing ubuntu on an ssd [09:17] I've forced myself to use Unity for 24 hours. It's actually not as bad as I thought it would be. I hated it when it first came out, seems to have improved greatly [09:17] lotuspsychje I want to use Ubuntu to revive this crappy laptop [09:17] I think faste is french. Yes. there are ways to make the default language french. [09:18] hi.. ok i'm getting very odd networking issues but none of the other users are experieincing them (i'm the only one running ubuntu 12.04) [09:18] i'm unable to say ping slashdot.org... what can i do to diagonse the problem? [09:18] neat, that describes your problem in such a way that people who can help can because you totally had tons of detail in it! [09:18] Organicanarchy: xubuntu and lubuntu might run faster on your netbook, but i would buy and SSD drive and install ubuntu on your netbook [09:18] Organicanarchy: install unity-tweak-tool and disable background blur in search section. It will speed the interface up a lot [09:19] lotuspsychje: I dont even think this thingwill take an ssd, its IDE HD only lol [09:19] hitsujiTMO thanks, I might try that, but I thought ubuntu tweak was broken... [09:19] Organicanarchy: there are IDE ssd's aswell, nto as fast as sata ofcourse [09:19] Organicanarchy: if its a new boot then its not ide :P [09:19] hitsujiTMO, thanks for that! [09:19] obviously, i can connect to irc.. so dns and tcp is somewhat working.. it's a really odd networking issue [09:19] ##fcuk [09:20] im off to try it Wubi style just to get a basic idea of how itll perform before I erase my whole HD [09:20] Organicanarchy: ssd and ubuntu goes rocketfast! [09:20] hitsujiTMO, OMG! That's a huge help [09:20] lotuspsychje, my next HD is gonna be SSD, and on a deskt [09:20] lol, where were you yesterday? [09:20] grahamsavage: that is odd. try using a better dns server, like opendns [09:21] dig slashdot.org -> 216.34.181.45; ping 216.34181.45; doesn't work wget 216.34.181.45 downloads no code [09:21] ianmac1: lol sorry, i was prob helping someone else at the time [09:21] thanks ya'll [09:21] hitsujiTMO, it's also faster to keep blur turned on but change it from Active to Static [09:22] but, yeah, much faster to just turn it off [09:22] ianmac1: yes but i find the blur to be unnecessary anyway. that also disables the blur on the alt-tab switcher [09:22] grahamsavage: are you in china? [09:22] OxDeadC0de: yep [09:23] for real? [09:23] grahamsavage, beijing? [09:23] hitsujiTMO, yes, much better here on my little lappy [09:23] cfhowlett: nah, changsha [09:23] Well frankly, that explains everything. [09:23] ok.. computer 1 loads slashdot, computer 2 doesn't [09:23] arg. [09:23] OxDeadC0de: it doesn't explain jack [09:23] grahamsavage, dress warm. my 2nd beijing winter ... [09:24] well now it doesn't. I wanted to be all anti-chinas internet controlling efforts, but you said no. [09:24] I know what GFOC errors look like.. this is not typical === AbyssOne__ is now known as a1|away [09:24] grahamsavage, I get slashdot no problem === a1|away is now known as AbyssOne__ [09:24] on that IP? [09:24] yes. [09:24] same ip. [09:25] wait, grahamsavage [09:25] what else can i add too my toolbox? dig, wget [09:25] when I ping slashdot.org I get PING shashdot.org (80.190.252.204) 56(84) bytes of data [09:25] when I dig I get slashdot.org. 152 IN A 216.34.181.45 [09:25] cfhowlett: what you using for dns? [09:25] opendns [09:26] are you the same person? [09:26] grahamsavage, nope. no vpn, no nothing but ubuntu + firefox [09:26] the same person as what [09:26] OxDeadC0de: are you in china? [09:26] no. [09:26] cfhowlett: your just using standard isp provided DNS? [09:26] need some help with a2dp bluetooth, anyone ? [09:27] grahamsavage, yeah, whatever the China ISP provides .. I'm on my work wifi [09:27] pulsar78: best is to fire your question about it in channel [09:27] ask or answer, don't ask to ask. [09:28] grahamsavage: if you go directly to http://80.190.252.204 does slashdot load? [09:28] yeah [09:28] then I blame your dns [09:29] i just read yesterday that slashdot was used to spy people [09:30] use googles 8.8.8.8 [09:30] that some goverment made a page that looked like slashdot [09:30] jarkko, read on the internet? must be true ... [09:30] I just read yesterday that a 747 landed on a nissan.. but it was a lie. a 747 would crush a nissan like a nissan would crush a tin can on the road. [09:30] jarko: yeah that was the dodgy as shit brits [09:30] hitsujiTMO, so you can turn off the blur. Can you change the color of the background or make it darker? [09:34] ianmac1: under launcher set the background colour there [09:38] #ubuntu-it-chat [09:38] join #ubuntu-it-chat [09:40] is there any other full featured linux distro that's faster than Ubuntu [09:40] and easy? [09:40] I've used Fedora and Mint before, but im looking for something else thats fast as hell [09:40] fast for what? [09:41] AlanBell fast for a crappy 1gb of ram netbook that's a few years old [09:41] Puppy [09:41] Organicanarchy, xubuntu/lubuntu or optimized for older / lower spec machines such as yours [09:41] Organicanarchy: It might be worth looking at Lubuntu or Xubuntu which have lower hardware requirements [09:42] DJones cfhowlett thanks, I'llcheck those out, upgrading this machine just isn't really worth the money [09:42] get an ssd or more ram, or a new computer, that will be easier than trying to squeeze more out of that hardware [09:42] !lubuntu | Organicanarchy [09:42] Organicanarchy: 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. [09:42] Organicanarchy: It might be worth looking at Puppy, since its really small. [09:42] !xubuntu | Organicanarchy [09:42] Organicanarchy: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce as the desktop environment. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels [09:42] MrQuist, i have used puppy and really don't like it at all [09:42] !puppy [09:42] oh [09:42] :( [09:42] haha sorry [09:43] i really like it for the small stuff :) [09:43] MrQuist: !puppy (if there was a factoid) would probably say the same as !mint etc about not being supported here [09:43] as far as tiny OSes go its great [09:43] hitsujiTMO, perfect, thank you again [09:43] I know i was joking DJones [09:43] just checing if you were awake :) [09:45] im buying a new computer soon, desktop, gonna buid it for gaming and totally installing Ubuntu/wine [09:45] Organicanarchy: the best way to get 'fast as hell', is a minimal distro compiled directly for the target device. Ubuntu and others can do this, but are setup for general purpose use - and have to work with all devices. The compiled 64-bit deb needs to work on both amd and intel, so it has no amd or intel specific instructions (Even though compilers CAN generate those left and right) [09:45] hi, i need some help with starting Apache and it fails missing a file, i get Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so into server: libqdbm.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [09:46] hitsujiTMO, hey I can set the icon size too.. now I can cram more icons in there :) [09:46] OxDeadC0de at some point I think im going to try to get arch on here [09:46] Organicanarchy: so if you want the best 'fast as hell' distro, you will need to compile it yourself. that will take a lot of time to do, and if you need a new app it and whatever deps you don't already have will need compiled. [09:46] yea that's what I was hinting at ;) [09:46] OxDeadC0de yeah, either arch or Gentoo [09:47] Hi, by default my rc.local file is filled with a do_start function and some more things. How shall I edit it? In other distros I used it's always empty by default [09:48] Organicanarchy: In my uhh, internet life, I haven't heard anyone mention gentoo in quite a long while. Arch is a common name though (G+ circles?..... meh.) [09:48] OxDeadC0de what about installing ubuntu server then just installing the xfce packages? [09:48] Organicanarchy: that will get you minimal stuff sure, but none of it will have the special instructions provided by the processor (And even with an atom, there are a large number.) [09:49] Uhmm somhow i think ive gotten malware in my chromium.. when i click a link on some websites i get a porn popup [09:49] even SSE may be disabled so that the pacakage can run on 486's just to be backward compatible. [09:49] OxDeadC0de know much about wubi? [09:49] Organicanarchy, friends don't let friends do wubi [09:50] no.. I use YUMI. [09:50] wubi sounds dumb. [09:50] ive turned off all plugins that arent like VLC related or so.. but even complete remove of chromium and it still remembers last websites visited and all.. why ? [09:50] lol, im trying out a wubi install for desktop envorionment testing [09:50] kriss_, that doesn't equate to malware on your end [09:50] but it keeps downloading amd64 packages [09:50] VM it and use an ISO on a usb stick... === tvoss is now known as tvoss|test === tvoss|test is now known as tvoss [09:50] amd64 works on both amd and intel [09:51] OxDeadC0de i have 1 gig of ram..... I can't VM [09:51] (except intels original ia64 line) [09:51] get a job for a day or two and buy some good 16gb of good ram Organicanarchy? [09:51] kriss_, delete your history completely, block popups. add adblock and see if the behavior returns. and stay away from pretty pictures! [09:51] oh wait, china. === wvqpyttvcfczsfvv is now known as kjjsjfedtzfekoff === kjjsjfedtzfekoff is now known as sepero [09:51] cfhowlett, when i go to same site on firefox its no problem. just chromium that acts up.. [09:52] kriss_, try the methods I've posted above and test it [09:52] though im still wondering how a complete remove via synaptic still keeps history and everything after a install of chromium again [09:52] i thought "completely remove" meant actually removing all traces of the program === kriss_ is now known as Kriss3d [09:53] kriss_, sudo apt-get purge && sudo apt-get autoremove otherwise config files stay in /home [09:53] hi, can i keep 13.04 and install 13.10 in a separate partition then use grub to select at boot? [09:53] Organicanarchy: I thought all the ram was made in china anyway? Wouldn't that make it cheaper to buy there? [09:53] Kriss remove doesn't mean purge [09:53] CiSense: Yes you can [09:53] * OxDeadC0de gets censored. [09:53] DJones, thanks [09:54] cfhowlett, so i should manually purge with apt-get ? [09:54] OxDeadC0de im just gonna tinker with this thing until I have enough to buy a new computer [09:54] Kriss3d, and then run autoremove to clear out orphans [09:54] CiSense: You just need to have space for a seperate partition, or have to create one by shrinking a current one during the install, if you do the latter just make sure you have a backup of anything important just case shrinking a partition causes a problem [09:55] CiSense: You can use the same swap partition for the 2nd install [09:55] so sudo apt-get autoremove chromium ? [09:56] another dumb question: is it possible to dual boot, then have ubuntu partition take over windows 7' [09:56] Kriss3d, sudo apt-get purge chromium && sudo apt-get autoremove [09:56] Organicanarchy, you mean go into the windows directory ? sure [09:56] cfhowlett, ty [09:57] Organicanarchy: what do you mean 'take over windows 7'? [09:57] Kriss3d i mean dual boot, copy all my info over, then stretch my ubuntu partition to overwrite windows 7 [09:57] Kriss3d, you could also try running chromium in incognito mode. I've set both my browsers to default to incognito - then again, I'm paranoid [09:57] you too, OxDeadC0de [09:57] yes. [09:58] Organicanarchy: you can format your windows partition inside ubuntu then have a seperate free partition [09:58] resize the linux partition and delete the windows one.. once you decide to erase windows. [09:58] or you can mount the windows partition in linux, and use it for storage. [09:58] and keep windows intact for booting later. [09:58] OxDeadC0de can I do that from gparted? make my XP partiition smaller and whatnot [09:59] cfhowlett, thats why im trying to get my hands on a working ISO for Attack vector - kali with everything running via tor by default [09:59] hello [09:59] pretty sure it supports resize these days, but, last time I tried resizing a windows partition outside of windows disk manager, it killed windows thinking it was hijacked to a different systems since the partition size was different. === david is now known as Guest40467 [09:59] Kriss3d, I understood half of that :) [10:00] cfhowlett, you be glad youre not in Denmark then.. Our PM just said in a press conference that NSA most certainly isnt spying on us ILLEGALLY.. That raised a few issues when she couldnt give an answer to whether they spied on us LEGALLY.. [10:00] guys [10:00] windows disk manager updates some security file(s?) that gparted didn't, but that was durring vista. [10:00] i just started ubuntu [10:00] hi need to connect to bluetooth device on boot (have to do this manually now) [10:00] hornypsycho Welcome! [10:00] and there is no title bar on any window [10:01] Kriss3d, assume you're monitored. clean up your act. use *** alternatives but don't trust them [10:01] i can't close/minimize. and they aren't showing in the window buttons [10:01] cfhowlett, attack vector is a kali (debian based) pentest distro. its meant to be disposable [10:01] i am using xubuntu btw [10:01] assume big brother watches you masterbate and knows exactly what porno's you watched on that website that time you creeper. [10:01] yeah ive stopped trusting anything american.. sorry. I dont dislike americans at all. just.. any american product i wont trust anymore. [10:02] Kriss3d, noted. thanks. [10:02] did Kali replace Backtrack? [10:03] or, assume some creeper actually did that. a buddy of mine came to me with a laptop she just bought, it seemed okay. I didn't see a need to wipe the os and put a new one on.. but the dude who sold it put malware on that took pictures every X seconds on it. Whether they where uploaded somewhere or not I don't know [10:03] anyone? [10:03] hello [10:03] !kali | Organicanarchy [10:03] Organicanarchy: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [10:03] Organicanarchy, yeah kali did replace BT.. [10:03] David321 whats up? [10:03] I figured [10:03] Does anyone here have any expierence with installing Ubuntu-12.04.03-server 64bit under a VM ? [10:03] running into some problems ^^ [10:03] Kriss3d: nothing is made in america anymore. everything is made in china. so uhh. [10:04] !details | David321 [10:04] David321: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [10:05] OxDeadC0de, yeah i think ill start coding my own OS.. haha.. well Ill attempt to stick to european stuff [10:05] Well, pretty much for VM up and running, loading a Ubuntu Server Iso (12.04.3) and I get error on the gfx [10:05] Gives a display monitor error 314, when I type help [10:05] I figured out how to get abit further [10:05] Kriss3d: uhm. what? why? [10:05] no one can help me? :c [10:05] with like giving install command with vga specifics [10:06] it seems to want to boot but I just end up with a black screen after that [10:06] David321: what virtualisation solution are you using and what is the EXACT error [10:06] i [10:06] re-ask your issue here in chat once in a while or ask in #xubuntu [10:06] I'm using KVM under Centos on a PowerEdge 1950 [10:06] OxDeadC0de, well when pretty much every major contry gets caught spying.. what else to do ?? [10:06] sec i'll copy the exact error [10:07] David321: have you nstalled xorg onto the server? [10:07] Kriss3d whatever the hell you want [10:07] Kriss3d: linux kernel and gnu os? At least it's open and anybodies eyes can review the code. [10:07] "Undefined Video Mode 314 " [10:07] Kriss3d when they're always watching, might as well do what you want anyway [10:07] and it's not 'european' , it was made by many, many people. [10:08] But as soon as you send a packet over a network, dude, it just passed through 60-100-10000 different routers. [10:08] anybody could copy that packet and read it. [10:08] Nope, no packages found with xorg (i'm very new to using linux, but I have some expierence with DOS) [10:08] cfhowlett, thats.. odd.. i did purge.. autoremove and after installing chromium AGAIN.. it still remembers the last pr0nsite i was on.. [10:09] David321, i used to be quite experienced in DOS as well but linux is NOTHING like Dos.. [10:09] Kriss3d, I'd say the url was hijacked but you stated that this did NOT happen with Firefox? [10:09] David321: can you try the vga=0 kernel flag [10:09] though in Windows when i go CLI i always accidently type ls instead of dir [10:09] I have tried this, it results into getting bit further but then black screen [10:09] have also tried vga=normal and vga=ask [10:10] those result into a direct freeze [10:10] is there a vga=788 there in the kernel options? [10:10] OxDeadC0de, yeah most all sites i need are USa based.. but i belive the TOR 2.0 is on drawing board now [10:10] cfhowlett, exactly. [10:10] well the ISO I have doesn't have a /boot/grub/menu.lst file [10:11] I added that line upon the installation boot [10:11] Kriss3d: Do you understand most sites, are run on personal computers on some cable or dsl line in somebodies house? [10:11] interessting.. when i open a cognito window and browse same site it still gives me those popups === lubuntu is now known as Guest31895 [10:11] so if most sites you need are in the us, what's that mean? [10:12] OxDeadC0de, uhmm well i doubt most sites are run off private computers.. [10:12] stop using chromium and use chrome, and use incognito tabs for your pr0n? [10:12] :P [10:12] they used to be Kriss3d [10:12] Kriss3d, sounds like it could be a chromium hack .. [10:12] yeah, whast the diff between chromium and chrome? isnt chrome just chromium with google's name on it? [10:13] cfhowlett, yeah.. but mostly its odd that chromium keeps remembering my last site after purge [10:13] Organicanarchy, yes it is [10:13] probably just some temp file in some ./.chromium/ (or similar) folder that saves a url that was forgotten to be added to the 'purge' list [10:14] ive made a bash script to collect entire galleries from imagefap and its awsome but i need to see which galleries to get [10:14] done. [10:14] bye. === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [10:14] bye nigga [10:14] OxDeadC0de, yeah i suppose i could try to manually remove that folder [10:14] Hmmm so I run Virt-Install with the proper lines to make a virtual disk and specific a iso to boot and install on. [10:15] i do not have /etc/default/bluetooth ? [10:15] where do i place my autoconnect settings ? [10:15] David321: can you try vga=771 that should at least work [10:15] then I get graphics initialization failed [10:15] Error setting up gfxboot [10:15] otherwise chrome/chromium is quite a nice browser except if you download somthing that anoying bar takes up alot of space on the screen [10:15] and you cant have it NOT show up.. [10:16] then if I go on and just type install [10:16] I get that monitor error [10:16] will try with install vga=771 now [10:16] Undefined Video Mode 314 [10:16] when I try that === Guest31895 is now known as sluvikov [10:17] Get some option to enter to go and select something (which just ends up freezing) [10:17] And waiting or continueing just ends up freezing as well [10:18] ugh wrong copy past btw [10:18] when I try 771 I get a different error [10:18] xfce and kvirc, how? [10:19] undefined video mode number:303 [10:19] hmm, and what was the error for vga=0 again? === alnkpa2_ is now known as alnkpa2 [10:19] none [10:19] It goes to a blackscreen [10:19] and does nothing when I do that [10:20] David321: can you remove quiet and spalsh if they are there and do vga=0 then [10:21] only thing I inputted was : install vga=0 [10:22] Funny thing is, I can get it to work in the Graphical interface, just not trew damn console. [10:22] David321: try acpi=off vga=791 [10:23] Undefined Video Mode number : 317 [10:25] David321: vga=770 does kvm seriously not support such common video modes? [10:25] Trying, and I don't know tbh, from what i've googled it seems to be more of a problem of the boot not reckognizing some type of onboard videocards or something. [10:26] Undefined Video mode number : 302 [10:26] David321: yes is whatever virtual gfx card the kvm is emulating has a very restrictive set of video mode support === Forest is now known as AxForest [10:27] ahhh so it's not the actual onboard card but the one KVM is simulating [10:28] well, the small moment the Ubuntu install tool is working [10:29] It's only actually giving me 1 valid suggestion [10:29] hi, i need help with my laptop and ubuntu + UEFI. My system isnt booting after installation. Tried this, but still no boot. http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/ubuntu-13-10-64-bit-auf-lenovo-s205-installier/#post-6093622 [10:29] which is basically vga=0 [10:29] David321: can you try running qemu-kvm with -vga qxl [10:29] !uefi | baizon [10:29] baizon: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [10:30] lotuspsychje: im sitting 4 hours now, do you think i didnt tried that website? [10:30] baizon: did you disable secure boot? [10:30] lotuspsychje: i cant. bios doesnt have that option [10:31] David321: or at least try and cgange the vga adapter to something else that might be available on the system [10:31] hmmm i'll see what I can do on that part. In the graphical interface that's quiet easy to do. [10:31] not sure how to do that in the console [10:31] baizon: ive been able to install ubuntu on an uefi machine out of the box, didnt have to change anything [10:32] well, my system isnt booting [10:32] vga=ask [10:32] baizon: what does it say? [10:32] lotuspsychje: nothing [10:32] brings up a neat menu that displays a bunch of modes to try! [10:32] no grub menu, nothing [10:32] baizon: what was default Os on your machine? [10:33] lotuspsychje: of course Windows 7 [10:34] baizon: did you install ubuntu on whole hd or dualboot with win7? [10:34] whole [10:34] baizon: so after reboot, nothing happens? [10:34] no boot, no [10:34] Hi guys, I had ubuntu 13.04 running with linux kernel 3.8.0-33 generic and the external screen of my laptop just stopped working. I upgraded to saucy which uses 3.11.0-13 and the external screen started working again. [10:34] baizon: you sure there's no hidden bios feature to disable secure boot? [10:34] lotuspsychje: 100% [10:35] I have no lead for why this happened or a log I can show you guys but should I report it somewhere?

I can only boot ubuntu on my laptop with acpi=off and I'm not sure how to fix it. [11:06] can I install kaspersky antivirus === JoshuaP-afk is now known as JoshuaP [11:08] !virus|zack_, [11:08] zack_,: 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/Antivirus [11:09] lscpu shows the cpu speed scaled back if in energy saving mode, right? how can I check the full speed or if turbo mode is possible? [11:09] zack_: Looks like they do have a Linux version http://www.kaspersky.co.uk/anti-virus_linux_workstation but doesn't look like its been updated since 2008 [11:10] zack_: Doesn't appear available for currently supported versions of Ubuntu anyway [11:14] jdimatteo: Just run something that consumes all of a cpu and see if the mhz changes.. [11:14] jdimatteo: In short if you're using an intel chip it will just work. [11:16] buu: it is an amd chip, not an intel chip — does your method only work for intel chips? [11:17] i can't install samba what can i do [11:18] jdimatteo: No, it should be the same, I just haven't tested an amd chip in a while. [11:18] jdimatteo: run ffmpeg or gcc or something and watch your reported cpu mhz [11:18] zack_, why not? [11:19] ok, cool, thanks bbu!

Can any one help me regarding this ? [11:29] Zorky, after changing locale, try running update, does the missing translations show up? [11:30] !test > M00sL0gB0t [11:30] M00sL0gB0t, please see my private message [11:30] Zorky, after update, logout and back in again, and it should be fine [11:30] OerHeks: some of the stuff are in the correct language. but something are still in english [11:30] OerHeks: i rebooted the machine after i edited the locale file [11:33] Any one who can post a working locale file? [11:33] Zorky, locale-gen? xD idk lol [11:34] ./etc/default/locale <— that file [11:34] i don't have one of those :/ [11:35] idk the location of it in Ubuntu. [11:35] i just posted the location for that file [11:35] it's sudo nano /etc/default/locale [11:36] Zorky: have you installed all the language danish packs for the DE? [11:36] danish language packs* [11:37] Zorky, what does locale -a say? [11:37] long list [11:37] hitsujiTMO: yes both of the files are install [11:37] "sudo locale-gen da_DA.UTF-8 && sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales " [11:37] da and da-base [11:37] Zorky: both? there should be more than 2 [11:38] Zorky, in arch linux i set the locale in /etc/locale.conf so idk about how ubuntu would do it. sorry i can't help ya lol OerHeks looks like he knows what's going on xD [11:39] Zorky: what about gnome-da and gnome-da-base? [11:39] Hi, I have an nfs share that is actually 80% full , but in df -h , it shows its 100%. On going to the actual directory and running 'df -h' i see its 80% full . Umounting and mounting it back still shows that the disk is 100% full .Any thoughts on how this can be resolved ? [11:39] exported: the file is the same in your distro as in ubuntu. in ubuntu it's just call'd locale [11:39] Zorky: da and da-base is only cli stuff [11:40] hitsujiTMO: that might be why the rightclick menues are still in english [11:40] zorky: thats why there's a gui for lang support. System Settings -> Language Support. [11:41] hitsujiTMO: im doing this on a 12.04lts server edition [11:41] Zorky: what DE? [11:41] DE? [11:42] Zorky, why run a Gui on a server? :o or are you? [11:42] exported: im running x2go on the server. [11:42] zorky: desktop environment [11:42] hitsujiTMO: unity [11:42] I tried a df --sync and it shows that its used up all the blocks .How do i fix this issue ? There is a lot of unused disk space. [11:43] Zorky: so you've converted ubuntu-server into ubuntu-desktop then? [11:43] more or less [11:43] Zorky: how exactly did you install unity? [11:43] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [11:44] Zorky, ...why not just run ssh and cut out xserver all together lol [11:44] Zorky: then you should find the gui language stuff in: System Settings -> Language Support. [11:45] oh are you using it as a local "main system" for other "terminals"? [11:46] exported: the server runs ubuntu server 12.04lts with ubuntu-dekstop (unity) running x2go to run thin clients [11:46] Zorky: anyhow installing language-pack-gnome-da and language-pack-gnome-da-base should hopefully be enough to get you going. not sure if there's another envvar to tell unity what language to use tho [11:46] hitsujiTMO: Everything in language support is in danish. except help and close. [11:46] Zorky, and do not forget to apply system-wide [11:47] Zorky, makes sense now lol [11:47] g2g all === b is now known as Guest37186 [11:49] how to set audio latency with terminal?

I think it could be an hardware issue, how can I know which part of the computer is broken? [11:55] I'm using Jackd but can't find a thing for set Jackd to 41k, 4096 via terminal === sean_ is now known as seann_ [11:59] Hello there. When i booted my eeePc today, i saw that my shortcuts with fn + Fx don't work anymore. But I don't know why. Any idea ? [12:04] Hi I added a section to my xorg.conf hoping to get my rat5 mouse to work, now my rig hangs on the ubuntu logo with the red dots below it on startup any ideas? [12:04] can somebody help me resize my ext4 partition? I already have unallocated space and im on the live cd but gparted wont let me increase the size of the partition [12:04] I also cannot edit the xorg.conf from the root shell or via live environment [12:05] I thought i may be able to comment out the additions, but no luck so far [12:05] Danato: use parted magic instead [12:05] ok ill download it [12:06] Danato: you might have to get a boot cd with parted magic on. since the OS on the HDD you are trying to resize might interfere [12:07] Danato: is the partition mounted? [12:07] Zorky: he is booted to the livecd, so isnt in use [12:07] How can I access my xorg.conf if my rig won't boot? [12:07] phibonacci: boot to root recovery mode [12:07] the live cd I have comes with gparted, and i jst googled parted magic, its not free to download apparently [12:07] the root shell appears to have no write access [12:08] Danato: is the partition you want to manipulate mounted? [12:08] phibonacci: mount -o remount,rw / [12:08] ActionParsnip: the root shell yes? [12:08] yeah i guess, its where i already have ubuntu installed, but i wanna increase its capacity [12:08] gimme 5 I'll try it [12:08] phibonacci: yes, it will mount readonly by default, you can remount it writable [12:09] Danato: then unmount it, then you can manipulate it [12:09] Danato: unmount any partitions you have mounted and check the liveCD is not using swap on the drive too (if it has swap space) [12:09] wait if its not mounted by default then its not mounted [12:10] Hey! [12:10] I have a problem with Transmission for 12.04. [12:10] ActionParsnip: that's the rw command you've given me? [12:10] totalnewbie: Just explain your problem, without the introduction [12:10] phibonacci: mount -o remount,rw / [12:10] mind to tell me how to unmount it? its on /dev/sda4 [12:11] Danato: it may be in use, you dont know what the guy has been clicking [12:11] Danato: sudo umount /dev/sda4 [12:11] ActionParsnip: it wasnt mounted [12:12] Danato: and the swap? [12:12] ActionParsnip: why should he unmount from the terminal. when gparted can do all this? [12:12] ActionParsnip: i ddnt create a swap disk [12:12] ActionParsnip: i meant partition [12:13] Danato: gparted should be able to unmount all the disks for you. if you right click the disks [12:13] ActionParsnip: worked a treat, I've got access to the system again. You, sir or madam, are a veritable star [12:13] the disk is not mounted [12:13] phibonacci: I'm a dude :) [12:13] hi, I install a driver by recompiling my kernel. Now, I boot into the new kernel. how can I check if my driver is included or not? currently, I don't have the device by hand. so just want to check if the driver is installed or not. thanks. [12:13] :) [12:14] Danato: unmount all the disks. [12:14] now I just need to get the new mouse to behave [12:14] none of them are mounted, jst checked [12:15] Danato: and gparted still can't resize? === mdorenka- is now known as mdorenka [12:15] it only cant resize the ext4 partition that i wanna increase [12:16] Danato: just checking. where is the ext4 partition located on the partition table? [12:16] /dev/sda4 [12:16] and there is freespace behind that. so you can create a partition 5? [12:16] When I go onto a torrent-downloading website, I am unable to download the .torrent file. Instead, Firefox only gives me the option of opening the link with an application. THere are two applications available, but neither of them is the thing that I want. [12:17] (One is utorrent.exe, one is the tar.gz for Tor Browser.) [12:17] anyone please? [12:17] sgo11: ask your question again [12:17] Zorky, hi, I install a driver by recompiling my kernel. Now, I boot into the new kernel. how can I check if my driver is included or not? currently, I don't have the device by hand. so just want to check if the driver is installed or not. thanks. [12:17] Anyway, when I go to Choose Application, I cant find Transmission anywhere. Where are applications stored, in terms of files and folders? I cant search for it, either. [12:18] sgo11: ugf. sorry can't help you with that one [12:18] Maybe the problem is with Firefox, I think, because I should be able to download the .torrent file? But I dont know. [12:18] no, it says that i cant create more than 4 primary partitions [12:18] Danato: is there freespace behind the 4th partition [12:18] totalnewbie: tell it to use /usr/bin/transmission-gtk [12:19] Zorky, no worries. :) thanks. [12:19] well its right bellow the 2nd partition [12:19] !screenshot | Danato [12:19] Danato: 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. [12:19] no problem [12:20] hello [12:20] ActionParsnip: How do I do that? I dont have any box where I can enter that information, in either the window that comes up giving me the option to Choose Application, or the Choose App window itself. [12:21] Danato: I think your problem lies in. there is no unallocated space between partition 4 and the next partition. but you have unallocated space some place else. maybe behind partition 3. the space behind partition 3 can't be used to extend partition 4. or the space infront of partition 4. [12:22] ActionParsnip: Im dumb, never mind, figured out. Thanks a lot! [12:23] http://imagebin.org/276852 [12:24] Danato: read what i wrote before. that just answered why you can't extend the sd4 partition === Thorium220 is now known as Thor|Away [12:24] so is there a way to move the unallocated space? [12:24] Danato: if you want to make sda4 bigger you'll need to move sad3 first [12:24] Danato: no. you need to remove partition in order to do that [12:24] Danato: or i might be wrong it seems [12:25] Danato: You can move the partition to the left, but expect it to take a long time [12:27] now that I think about it, ive had a software that move data from a place to another, moving the unallocated space to where i want, but dont remember its name [12:28] Danato: you don't move the space, you move the partitions [12:28] Danato: I'm reasonably sure gparted can move your /dev/sda3 partition to the left into that gap, thus freeing up space for you to expand your /dev/sda4 [12:28] I've got a script: /home/lope/scripts/backup. Its in my path. I can run it from anywhere. but I want to run it with sudo. when I try run it with sudo it says command not found. === ubuntu is now known as Guest57361 [12:29] Rory: how can i do that? [12:29] ubuntu 'failed to start program - path or permissions wrong' ? [12:29] from QtCreator [12:29] Lope: It needs to be in the root user's $PATH as well. Consider copying it to the /usr/local/bin folder [12:29] Rory: ah nvm got it ;) [12:29] yeah it can be done [12:30] Danato: Like I said though, expect it to take a while, not like growing a partition which is semi-instant [12:30] sudo echo $PATH shows that /home/lope/scripts is in my $PATH. sudo zsh; echo $PATH; also shows /home/lope/scripts is in my path. "sudo zsh; backup;" works. but "sudo backup" from lope says command not found. [12:30] Rory: please see my last line. it IS in root's path. [12:30] Rory: thats ok, thanks guys [12:31] Lope $PATH is evaluated before the command is executed. thats your $PATH not roots path [12:31] Danato: it will properly take multiple hours to do. [12:32] Lope: There are a few workarounds here, but I still recommend, if you want that script to be available system-wide, putting it in /usr/local/bin http://stackoverflow.com/questions/257616/sudo-changes-path-why [12:32] hitsujiTMO: please take note I also went into a root zsh and echo'd $PATH. [12:32] Danato: if you cancel the process meanwhile you move. it will corrupt the partition. i suggest you set it to do it over night [12:33] hrm.... latest chrome update do something funky? [12:33] Rory: but "sudo zsh; backup" works. so why doesn't "sudo backup" work ? [12:33] Lope: "sudo zsh; echo $PATH" doesn't do that by the way [12:33] its night time here, I wouldnt mind, but its giving me some errors, i cant proceed [12:33] Lope: Do "sudo zsh" and then in the shell that starts, run "echo $PATH" [12:33] Lope; before ANYTHING you wrote in that is executed $PATH is evaluated. that DID NOT echo roots path! [12:34] Danato: what errors? [12:35] Lope. write a script with "echo $PATH" and then run that script with sudo to see what roots path is [12:37] it doesnt tell anyhing important, jst that there was an error, the details jst say that it couldnt move the partition to the left [12:37] Lope: or at least: run sudo -i. and then echo $PATH [12:37] Rory: I did run the commands separately I was just putting the semi colon inbetween because this is IRC and I wanted to write it shorthand. [12:37] ah wait [12:38] I ran the command echo $PATH as root@mypc, promise. [12:39] its a bunch of errors saying things like Cluster accounting failed at (#######): missing cluster in $Bitmap [12:39] Danato: im sorry i can't help with that. maybe someone else here can [12:40] Lope: how exactly did you add the path to roots $PATH ? [12:40] no problems, thanks anyways [12:40] Hey all. How do I boot into some sort if single user mode with UEFI? Has a bit of a power incident and want to make sure my disks are consistent. Tried holding and tapping both ESC and left shift, but no dice. Im not convinced I actually have grub [12:43] tpw_phone: have you tried right shift? [12:43] hitsujiTMO: okay I took your advice and created a bash script that echos path and then ran that with sudo. [12:43] /home/lope/scripts was NOT in that path. [12:43] hitsujiTMO: I can, but I was specifically told left shift [12:43] weird how sudo zsh and then echo $PATH was giving me lope's $PATH even though the shell said root@mypc. [12:43] let me change my question. how to check all hid drivers installed in the system? [12:44] tpw_phone: it seems to differ. I've seen documentation the says the correct key is right shift for grub 2. but esc is what does it for me. it seems to be very inconsistent [12:44] Hello [12:44] Why aptitude install (with no packages as arguments) wants to install stuff from time to time ? === panda-pc is now known as sergios [12:45] Again thoug, I don't seem to be using grub [12:46] How would i set up a shared folder in /home/sharedfoldernamehere that 2 users can enter from a shortcut and save files into from their desktops [12:46] Zorky: remotely? [12:46] no locally [12:46] oh [12:46] make it group-writeable [12:46] add both users to the same group [12:47] Zorky: bonus points for using umask to set it so that files are also automatically group-writeable [12:47] gordonjcp: they are. my problem lies in. i open libreoffice. i want to save my file into this folder. but i can't see the folder shortcut on the desktop [12:47] Zorky: symlink [12:48] gordonjcp: please explain [12:48] Zorky: a symlink, symbolic link, is a special type of file that represents the path to another file [12:49] gordonjcp: thanks :) how would i create this folder then? [12:49] Zorky: well create a folder as normal, ensure it's group-writeable [12:49] Yeah, pretty sure im not using grub [12:49] create a group for both users [12:49] add both users to that group *and make sure they log out and log back in* [12:49] Lope: now, if you want to have access to that as root in an interactiver shell, you should symlink that file in /usr/local/sbin . if you're using a script (such as in cron ) you should specify the full path as cron jobs and some other scripts will not have a $PATH set [12:50] Zorky: at this point, both users can write to files /home/shared/ [12:50] gordonjcp: yes. they allready can. but i want them to access that folder from their desktops via a shortcut [12:51] Zorky: now for both users, create a symbolic link from that directory to one on their desktop [12:51] Zorky: something like "ln -s /home/shared ~/Desktop/" [12:51] Zorky: create a group for that share. chmod g+ws that sharedfolder. add the group to the users (they need to relog for that group to be picked up) and then ln -s a shorkcut to that folder [12:52] hello, i've got an IRC server, with email nickserv registstration, how do i setup Sendmail correctly to get it working? :x im fairly new @ ubuntu [12:56] anyone? [12:57] Celahir: you can just install sendmail ( i think the package is sendmail-bin ) but postfix is generally the preferred method now https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix it can be a bit difficult to get them up and running such that the emails being sent are not going to spam [12:58] hmm okay [12:58] hitsujiTMO: how do i add a group with groupadd that have the same rw as the shared folder.?

[13:15] gordonjcp, how come some of them work? and what do you mean it doesn't support youtube? :o [13:15] Wiz_KeeD: it is apparently a deliberate decision on Google's part to make their two products not co-exist [13:16] hitsujiTMO: drwx------ 2 root faellesmappe 4096 nov 12 14:47 /home/faellesmappe/ [13:16] ok, is this a bad joke and I'm supposed to laugh?

Thanks for telling me about the xstart command. I will investigate. Good luck helping zorky and others. You are great! [13:19] Al__: i've just tested here now. that indeed is an error if x is already running. try + + to get to tty7 [13:19] hitsujiTMO: i can access the folder now [13:19] !yay | Zorky [13:19] Zorky: Glad you made it! :-) [13:19] hitsujiTMO, thanks for staying with me! [13:20] al__ is the graphical x enviroment coming up for you in tty7? [13:25] Sorry, i have a problem with https connection... All settings is default. I have not iptables. I use firefox, chrome... Http connection work perfect. Where may be a problem? [13:25] Hi there [13:25] hitsujiTMO, I have no idea. Even though I have been using ubuntu versions for 5 years, I don't really know what you mean. [13:27] al__: linux allows you to jumpt between different terminal sessions. you can do this with the + + combination. Xorg runs on tty7 to go swith to that use the key combination + + does that bring up the graphical xorg session? [13:27] Does someone know why a 10.04 64 cannot automount SD cards anymore ? I have to double click the icon for it to open. It used to mount and open a nautilus window automatically. [13:28] DannyButterman: try checking if usbmount is installed maybe [13:28] hitsujiTMO, crtl alt f7 did nothing. I did crtl alt f1 and got a terminal. It doesn't say tty7 [13:28] Al__: is this on a fresh install or after an update? [13:29] I update every couple of days. This 12.04 was installed a few months ago [13:29] al__: if you have a black screen then more than likely there's an issue with the gfx card. [13:30] Al__: can you install pastebinit. sudo apt-get install pastebinit [13:30] how would i disable all those popups that apear when errors occure in ubuntu? [13:30] Yes, I have a black screen [13:30] Zorky: what "pop ups" do you mean [13:31] mjayk: those that apear. when a program crashes and such [13:31] Zorky: i find the only way to get rid of them is to send the error report. they seem to keep coming back if you dont [13:31] Nach0z : it is not, but it doesn't need to, my other 10.04 desktops automount sd cards and usbmount is not installed [13:31] I have no idea then. [13:31] Does anyone know why an attemt to install 12.04 on a 13.10 system to dual boot fails at the instaallation of the bootloader [13:31] maybe print out a list of installed packages in each and do a diff on the output DannyButterman [13:31] Al__: im curious. can you access the TTY's via CTRL+ALT+F1 trough F7? [13:31] I will do sudo apt-get install pastebinit and cross my fingers it doesn't break! [13:32] Zorky hitsujiTMO if you are talking about apport error reports you can turn them off by typing service apport stop [13:32] Zorky: as sudo [13:32] Zorky, nothing happens when I do ctrl+alt F7 [13:32] I did ctrl+alt F1 and got a tty [13:32] DannyButterman: keep in mind that 10.04 is EOL and no longer supported. whatever script that auto mounts sd cards has probably changed since then [13:32] ctrl+alt+f7 is the gui part. press ctrl+alt+f1 [13:32] Zorky: to disable them on start up open /etc/default/apport in a text editor again as root and changed enabled=1 to enabled=0 [13:32] Zorky: http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-disable-apport-error-reporting-in-ubuntu [13:33] mjayk: ActionParsnip thanks [13:33] Zorky: although it is bad practice to disable error reports [13:33] Al__: try with sudo service lightdm start [13:33] al__: once thats installed can you run: dmesg | pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log that will produce 2 urls. can you paste the 2 urls here please [13:33] mjayk: yes im aware of that. but they keep poping up constantly. [13:34] Zorky: could always install a better distro :D [13:34] mjayk: yeah i know. ubuntu is just full of bugs it's getting anoying.. [13:34] hitsujiTMO, wow, this sounds like it will be fun... Let me write all this down! [13:34] Zorky: its what pushed me to opensuse, I feel your pain [13:35] mjayk: the fun part is. all these errors are only related to UNITY [13:35] Hi! I was here a few days ago to solve a graphics error during ubuntu installation (worked with the "nomodeset" option). This worked fine for the installation and first start, but now, when I start Ubuntu, a window shows during boot, saying "The system is running in low-graphics mode. Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself" [13:35] When I select "run in low-graphics mode for just one session", there's a new window telling me to wait one minute while the screen restarts. When I press ok in this window, I'm back to the ubuntu boot screen, the red dots are going on and on, but I'm not getting any further. [13:35] Zorky: then switch shell, or ditch Gnome and move to XFCE or KDE or LXDE and so on... [13:35] Zorky: you don't have to use Unity shell [13:36] lxde <3 [13:36] ActionParsnip: my boss tells me to do it. [13:36] xfc34 [13:36] ! [13:36] kde atm :) /cheer [13:36] xfce4 is super lightweight but meh [13:36] xfce4 is what you make of it Nach0z [13:37] I never liked it that much [13:37] Zorky: screw him, as long as you do your work, why does s/he care? [13:37] meh, openbox and dmenu is all you need :P [13:37] hi, last night I installed ubuntu on a sony vaio with dual boot but since when win8 has been restarted I'm not able to boot again from ubuntu. I thought that win8 has deleted grub, but I'm not sure. [13:37] I've just tried to reinstall ubuntu today in the same partition of last night but installer fails for disk errors :-/ [13:37] hitsujiTMO: openbox + tint2 [13:37] but then the first time I installed xfce, it seemed to want to use a windows 95 theme [13:38] whiiiich was kinda butt-ugly. [13:38] If you have to run Unity and it isn't working, get your boss to come up with support money. [13:38] hitsujiTMO : I know it's EOL but that happens only on one of my 10.04 machines, the others are fine. Nach0z: you're right, I will diff that === leaf12 is now known as aemw0 [13:38] ActionParsnip: we are canonical partners. and it's his choice. besides. currently im working on a server for customers [13:39] Zorky: why would a server have Unity on it? [13:39] ferz: have you tried running sudo update-grub [13:39] ... server + gui? [13:39] ActionParsnip: running x2go. it needs a desktop env to work [13:40] tell them to use windows server 2012 for an awesome potato gui [13:40] mjayk: no, now I was trying to be sure about disk with sudo dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/sda7 bs=65536 but it doesn't write anything. [13:40] Zorky: gnome is a little heavy, a nice fluxbox session will do.... [13:40] ActionParsnip, exactly! [13:40] hitsujiTMO, okay I installed pastebinit. Now how do I run that dmesg thing? Do I just type run dmesg | pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/xorg.0.log? [13:40] ferz: that will erase sda7 correct ? [13:40] mjayk: which tool can I use to check that partition? [13:40] people do make some weird choices [13:40] Al__: yup just type exactly like that [13:40] mjayk: yes. [13:40] ferz: i use gparted [13:41] with out run ofc [13:41] gparted doesn't report any errors in that partition. [13:41] al__ without run ofc. [13:41] ActionParsnip: yes im aware of that. but it needs to be the same interface on all clients. so it dosent get confusing for a ms. olsen on 80 year old [13:42] Zorky, pretty sure Ms. Olson is going to find unity an order of magnitude more confusing than, say, xfce ... [13:42] Hey folks [13:42] lol about the ofc. That is not an ofc for me! [13:43] al__ :) [13:43] ferz: and what error is it you get in the install ? [13:43] okay, I will type dmesg | pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/xorg.0.log [13:43] cfhowlett_: indeed. but lets put this example up. canonical is making a ubuntu phone. it runs unity. it will be much easier to teach people to use the OS if it has the same interface on both clients [13:44] Zorky, true ... [13:44] Al__: thats a capital X in /var/log/Xorg.0.log [13:44] mjayk: it was a generic disk failure. [13:45] ferz: I would delete the partition and reformat it using gparted and retry, apart from that I cant help sorry [13:46] mjayk: yes, I've already done (delete partition and reformat it) [13:46] Libreoffice write control testy thingy wont show the correct spellcheck for the language i just downloaded for libreoffice [13:46] mjayk: but it continue to fail === jacques is now known as Guest41621 [13:46] ferz: are you on a live cd or which? [13:47] hitsujiTMO: yes. [13:47] live cd [13:47] ferz: can you install smartmontools sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install smartmontools [13:48] hitsujiTMO: thank you, I'm doing it now. [13:49] ferz: actually you might asell install pastebinit too. sudo apt-get install pastebinit then: sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit === Guest41621 is now known as jakwas [13:50] ferz: just paste the url generated here [13:50] hitsujiTMO well, with the small x, it did give an error.

[13:54] AI__ i'll have a read thru. come back later when you can [13:54] hitsujiTMO, probably you don't want to give out your e-mail address?

[14:48] hitsujiTMO: imrunning saucy (13.10), latest version of weechat(4.2) [14:49] hitsujiTMO: my main concern is gnutls [14:49] which weechat depends on. but there is a newer ver in the repo, hitsujiTMO [14:50] gbit: alright let me try === cyril is now known as Guest73185 [14:50] cat /proc/swaps is empty [14:50] hitsujiTMO : That worked perfect..update-alternatives did the trick. Thanks a ton :) [14:50] helpmee: try fdisk -l [14:50] ferz: have a look at http://www.rodsbooks.com/fixparts/ have a search for out-of-order on that page [14:51] I dropped my second laptop on the floor and now it doesn't boot into windows (it only has windows installed). I think some data might have been corrupted on the hard drive. I am thinking of booting into ubuntu from a live USB and fixing it from there. Which program should I use for this? [14:51] no output [14:51] hitsujiTMO: thank you. I'll read it. [14:51] ferz: you will need to disable your running swap partition before doing anything. sudo swapoff -a [14:51] hitsujiTMO: maybeI'll just ask the ppl in #weechat ifthere is another problem [14:52] there is no swap with blkid too [14:52] helpmee: try free -m and see if swap it bigger than 0 [14:52] pvl1: normally having a newer version of a dependency isn't a bad thing, as long as its not a difference in major version. just minor version [14:53] swap 0 === jacques is now known as Guest69094 [14:53] hitsujiTMO: Butwouldn't i have to temove older version [14:54] helpmee: so thats confirm you dont have a swap. If you are a new user, try to reinstall ubuntu with a swap partition on. You can easy found a tutorial on Google to do it. [14:54] Is there a firewall enabled by default in ubuntu 12.04 server? [14:54] abradley, not by default [14:55] gbit: I let the installer do the partioning I did not choose "something else" why did this happen [14:55] thanks [14:57] helpmee: try again, is the better way to learn how to do it right. Check "How do I add more swap?" in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq [14:57] hola [14:57] ok thanks gbit [14:57] spanish?

I think some data might have been corrupted on the hard drive. I am thinking of booting into ubuntu from a live USB and fixing it from there. Which program should I use for this? [15:02] hey all [15:02] im back [15:02] http://i40.tinypic.com/aadvg7.png <--- what should i pick?? I am on vmware Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ( the vmware is running on a windows server 2012) [15:03] minas: Dropping the laptop on the floor isn't going to rearrange the data on the drive. It's going to physically damage the drive. [15:03] minas, probably physical damage to the drive. which version of Windows? [15:03] ObrienDave, it's windows 7 [15:03] hitsujiTMO: ill tryIt out, see What happens [15:04] minas, have you tried Safe Mode? F8 on boot [15:04] smeagolll: it would help if you posted the full error log. please note that there is a ##xen channel too [15:04] hitsujiTMO: both sfdisk and fixparts complain that it's a GPT disk and to use gpart instead. [15:04] I'm running a webserver on ubu 12.04 server and I'm running into an error when testing imap configuration: http://i.imgur.com/zxullwr.png [15:05] I understand that no firewall is enabled by default in ubu 12.04 server. Any suggestions why it is timing out? I can ping imap.gmail.com from the machine, avg 30ms [15:05] ObrienDave, I have tried it but nothing happens. It tries to load files ("windows is loading files") and then freezes [15:05] hi [15:05] hitsujiTMO: is there any guide about gparted for mistakes and complex scenario? [15:05] ObrienDave, actually nothing happens when F8 is pressed on boot. it just boots to what i described above [15:06] lol man [15:06] minas, the drive is damaged. [15:07] is there any ubuntu channel developer [15:07] ferz: ahh... gparts doesn't have an auto fixer for it it you need to use the transpose option to swap the partitions manually. its in the advanced options [15:07] hitsujiTMO: ok. I'll try then. [15:07] ObrienDave, is there something that can be done? Can I retrieve some of the files by booting from a live usb? (assuming they are not damaged) === karl is now known as Guest30252 === Guest30252 is now known as Karlito [15:08] anyone? [15:09] minas, you can try a live USB or DVD. Or move the drive to another computer and see if you can access the files. my best guess is probably not. sorry [15:09] hey guys got a question to the Bs xubuntu. is there any shortcut list ? or can anyone tell me how i can a application from window 1 to 2 ? [15:09] ObrienDave, ok, thanks for your help [15:09] move* [15:09] Justice: let me see (tinypic is slow) [15:09] ferz: use p to rint the partitrion table. what you want is so that the end of one partition, is 1 sector before the start of the next partition. the first few should be ordered correctly [15:09] hitsujiTMO: it seems that Vaio Care use the last partition to store its system and recovery space but I don't know which other partition is used for win and for sys hibernation. [15:09] hi, i got a problem on a 12.4.3 server install, how can i fix this : apt setup udeb succeeded but requested to be left unconfigured [15:10] ye i know, but its the only one i usre haha [15:10] Justice: I can't see an image...

[15:19] yes Rory [15:19] skraito: the default DE is Unity, which is based on gnome [15:19] hadifarn_: that would be Dependant on the cms and if you've installled the necessary dependencies [15:19] it doesnt give me 404 btw [15:19] hitsujiTMO: I have this issue with just a few pictures [15:19] hadifarn_: I get this: PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2006 MySQL server has gone away: SELECT expire, value FROM {semaphore} WHERE name = :name; Array ( [:name] => variable_init ) in lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of /srv/www/wishwant.co.uk/public_html/includes/lock.inc).

[15:23] hadifarn_: that url is served by drupal. not by apache. hence the error [15:23] hadifarn_: Then it could be that your .htaccess file is not set up correctly. [15:23] John525: LXDE which comes with Lubuntu is lightweight and I think it looks great if you like the traditional side of things [15:23] rypervenche: hmm, the main one in root directory, right? [15:23] ferz, they are also listed by a number. SDA is first drive. SDA1 is 1st partition 1st drive, SDA2 2nd partition 1st drive and so forth [15:23] John525: You can install it with "sudo apt-get install lxde" or for the full set of lubuntu packages "sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop" [15:23] My sounds are not working at all, where should I start looking? And yes ive tried the mixer [15:23] hadifarn_: You need to make sure that files that exist in the document are served and not passed through your index.php file. [15:24] ok cool [15:24] hadifarn_: I would assume so, however I don't know how you have your site set up.

[15:30] Rory: Connection to PulseAudio failed [15:32] bartolo, Try to create a bash script and put it in /etc/kernel/postinst.d/ but that would run for any update [15:33] hitsujiTMO: looks like my cms fails to generate the image [15:34] OerHeks: uhm ok thanks it's not a problem, the script ends in ms if it doesn't have to do anything [15:37] i already tried this guide to fix my sounds but it ddnt work http://itsfoss.com/fix-sound-ubuntu-1304-quick-tip/ [15:40] The notification bar in my Ubuntu 13.10 freezer very often.

Could also be the driver itself [15:49] Danato: did the sound work before? [15:50] hitsujiTMO: yeah it was working before, and yesterday it stopped working, and after some updates it worked again, and stopped working today [15:50] Danato. intel hda driver ?

Sometimes, when I start a youtube video, my sound device switches from speakers to headphones (i'm on a laptop) and the Speakers device isn't there anymore. Any idea what can cause this? [15:53] hitsujiTMO: i ddnt see anything there [15:53] Ubuntu 13.10 (forgot) [15:54] Danato: can you pastebin the output of: lspci -k [15:54] hitsujiTMO: on it [15:55] hitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.com/uJW5sGdH [15:55] You know what's really weird? The open source drivers for my raedon hd 6870 work better than the fglrx ones [15:56] BluesKaj: i ddnt see anything on the upper left [15:56] aarobc_wrk: not weird, different drivers work differently [15:56] Danato: can you pastebin alsamixer [15:57] BluesKaj: i jst ran it on the konsole, theres a graph [15:57] hitsujiTMO: my speaker sounds are all the way down [15:58] can anyone recommend a screencasting application? recordmydesktop and kazam are both completely unusable. [15:58] halfbeing, I use simplescreenrecorder for recording. Works like a charm. :) [15:58] halfbeing: odd, kazam works here, maybe tell the developers in #kazam [15:58] hey guys, im trying to install ffmpeg on ubuntu server and libvpx, i installed 'yasm' but when i try to ./configure libvpx, it complains about Yasm not available [15:58] anyone can help me out with this?

[15:59] g0tcha: You can install ffmpeg without compiling, using the Ubuntu repositories and apt-get [15:59] i have another question, how do i install cairo dock on ubuntu 12.10 [15:59] g0tcha: would you need yasm-dev package [15:59] !info cairo-dock [15:59] cairo-dock (source: cairo-dock): Light and eye-candy dock to launch your programs (metapackage). In component universe, is optional. Version 3.3.1-0ubuntu1 (saucy), package size 6 kB, installed size 45 kB [15:59] John525: it's in the universe repo [15:59] strit, is the problem that it doesn't save most of your recordings? [16:00] hitsujiTMO: ill take a screenshot [16:00] so install using apt-get? [16:00] Rory, would ffmpeg work as it should be if i install it using the repositories? cuz i need it for a local website im using [16:00] John525: yes [16:00] ActionParsnip, i dont see yasm-dev in the repo [16:00] Danato: its a text interface. you can just copy + paste the text [16:00] John525: or software centre if you desire [16:00] halfbeing, nope, on my machine it doesn't even record. it crashes a few seconds after I start it, and it finished switching between yellow and red dots in the indicator. :) [16:01] !find yasm [16:01] Found: yasm [16:01] hitsujiTMO: it looks really weird when i paste it [16:01] popey, i'll do that when i get a chance! [16:01] g0tcha: not sure then, is there not a binary package for what you need? [16:01] Danato: ahh ok [16:01] Danato. yes , but you have the intel hda sound diver , it's probly not loaded after you update/upgrade , a commoin bug with those drivers , in the terminal run , sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel , the command prompt will return immediately if the driver loads properly , then you'll have to reboot [16:01] ActionParsnip, well, im following this https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/UbuntuCompilationGuide [16:02] BluesKaj: if it shows up under lspci -k then it's loaded [16:02] hitsujiTMO. was that the command he used for the above post ? [16:03] BluesKaj: lspci -k [16:03] strit :) [16:03] well ,he should run the modprobe command anyway , it might work [16:04] hitsujiTMO. lspci -k may list the available driver but that doesn't mean it 's loading [16:05] hitsujiTMO: http://oi44.tinypic.com/21opo28.jpg [16:06] Danato. your speaker output is muted [16:06] what irc client should I use on ubuntu? I need to get notifications when I get a private message or when someone say my name. [16:06] BluesKaj: sorry you're right. man lspci says -l shows drivers loaded for device and capable of being loaded for a device [16:06] thats what I said [16:06] PPH: I like irssi [16:07] PPH, there are many you can try xchat [16:07] hitsujiTMO: the command seemed to work, at least it ddnt give me any error [16:07] gordonjcp: well that's what Im using actually but I don't have any notifications [16:07] Danato. use the M key to unmute it then the up arrow key to increase the volume [16:07] grep0r: well I'll try it [16:07] grep0r: thx [16:07] Danato: speaker is muted. move over it and hit (m) to unmute it. move arrows up and down to change the level [16:08] PPH, I use Xchat. :) [16:08] PPH: should see someone highlight, with the channel number turning purple [16:09] #buffer 6 [16:09] where do I press M? [16:10] Danato: when speaker is highlighted in red [16:10] PPH, xchat supports the feature you want, just from what i remember (not sure if still) xchat-gnome dont have some xchat's official features [16:10] Danato: then you's see the MM changing to 00 [16:10] grep0r: Ok thanks [16:10] ah i ddnt know i could navigate on that [16:11] hello [16:11] :) [16:11] Danato. use the < and> arrow keys to navigate in alsamixer to the speaker volume control , then press M , the increase the volume to 90% or so witht up arrow key [16:11] That Woked!

[16:35] FourFire: if you are using the same release, you can even backup the .list files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d [16:38] OerHeks, thanks what I meant was the hardware requiremtns [16:39] unicornjedi, low [16:39] Hi [16:39] After I've launched it, I've got this message: 'No diagram loaded' 'Having saved the output of bustle-dbus-monitor' to a file , open that file to see a sequence diagram of D-Bus activity.' [16:39] I think I just fragged my system... I did a test: sudo pm-hibernate and it hibernated fine, but now it won't boot. libcrypt can't resume /dev/dm-0, which I think is LVM. I can't do anything at this prompt. I tried recovery mode and it's the same thing. [16:39] That didnt work, rebooted and everything, I have the static desktop and transparent terminal window, something placed behide but no true effects, I see the desktop wallpaper and not the window behide. [16:39] How I solve this? [16:40] OerHeks, ??? what do you mean low? [16:40] BluesKaj: the sound is back [16:40] I've also installed graphviz [16:40] But nothing has changed :( [16:40] hiho [16:40] Any ideas? [16:40] unicornjedi, any number of small desktops can be a cluster, as long as they are connected [16:40] BluesKaj: why is dist-upgrade doing that now? i use to run it frequently and it never interfered with my sounds [16:41] *used [16:41] hello [16:44] ?? [16:44] shaoyongyang: Do you have a question? [16:45] ActionParsnip, https://www.dropbox.com/s/o0me9terv94o14z/Screenshot.png what ever I do I cant get the high desktop effects, I had this issue many years ago with ubuntu 6.10 but least you could pick from right clicking the desktop and choosing desktop node. [16:46] ActionParsnip, There has been to much taken from 12.10+ to allow you to customize it. === charles_ is now known as zorab47 [16:47] OerHeks, But how do I connect them? Do I need a D-link? Do I need a pci ethernet card? [16:47] Danato. it's abug in ubuntu with the intel hda driver loading at startup after upgrades , probly low on the priority list witht the devs , since the fix is so simple [16:48] unicornjedi: a switch and ethernet connections on each computer [16:49] after a short while on my ubuntu12.04 the dsl-connection vanishes [16:49] not disconnect but vanisheing completly [16:49] unicornjedi, ofcourse you need to connect them, ethernet preferrably [16:49] what to do? [16:50] hello world [16:51] gro, I think I have a switch. I have a D-Link ethernet switch. It has like 20 ethernet ports. [16:52] unicornjedi, that will do. [16:53] Hello, I just installed ubuntu 13.10 on a new partition and it suddenly replaces my windows partition, I'm currenty running ubuntu on USB to save my harddisk, how can I restore my windows partition?

[16:53] Tianmetal: Does ubuntu see your windows drive? [16:53] unicornjedi, yes, unless you want to keep it local. [16:53] no [16:54] unicornjedi: No, not necessarily. You can cluster and access the internet on the same network. [16:54] unicornjedi, see this example for a MPI cluster > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MpichCluster [16:54] I no longer see my windows drive [16:54] Tianmetal: Where are you looking?

[17:04] if not, how much after 30 days [17:04] Onixs: hi. are you there? [17:05] hello, is it possible to limit incoming ssh connections to a domain ?, as in instead of an ip to allow, only allow from me.nodmain.com ? [17:06] sivel__: yes, you can put the domain as the source in your iptables rule [17:06] like a reverse domain lookup ? [17:07] I have installed Grive but the file I have put inside is not being uploaded to Google Drive [17:07] ok. great . so it will always map me connecting from me.domain.com, even if my ip changes ? like a ddns host ? [17:08] sivel__: yes, it will resolve the domain and then allow you [17:08] thank you [17:08] how can i change my password to a printer on a windows network? [17:08] i configured it ok when i set up the printer [17:09] but now my passowrd has changed, and i cannot connect [17:09] i need to change the password that is used for connection attempts to the print server, but how can i do this? [17:09] Laurenceb: its part of the install process [17:09] Laurenceb: you might have to look at how to factory reset the printer on the manufacturers website, and then re-set it up. [17:10] Laurenceb: http://www.techotopia.com/images/5/59/Ubuntu_10.10_new_windows_printer.jpg. [17:10] Laurenceb: see where it says "set credentials" set them there [17:10] ok [17:10] Laurenceb: does yours have that? [17:11] tirengarfio: are you running a GUI? if so, take a look at grive-tools http://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/ubuntu-google-drive-client-grive-and-grive-tools [17:12] dryicebomb, I followed that [17:15] ok i can print now [17:15] but it asks for the password each time [17:15] how do i force it to remeber? [17:16] Got an email from vps provider saying vps was attempting to send smtp mail at ~100+ times per ten minutes. However I'm not aware of any services that would be sending /that much/ mail in /that little/ timeframe. I've checked my mail log and the most recent entry is Oct 2. How can i find out what is trying to send smtp mail? [17:17] hi [17:19] tirengarfio: do you get any errors when you try to sync via the command line?

[17:30] dustinspringman, do you mean xstart? [17:30] Al__: nope, startx [17:30] startx is the the command [17:30] thats what starts the xserver on my machine..

[17:34] OerHeks: when in a console, it's just alt+FX (ctrl+alt+FX works as well, but...) [17:35] zykotick9, true, i'll remember that [17:35] Has anyone here used a sync utility called Synkron? [17:36] NachOz, so I type in sudo kill -9 ?????? [17:36] * zykotick9 notes alt+arrow (left or right) is handy in consoles [17:36] anybody knows why there's no package "libboost-asio-dev" or something like that for installing Bost.Asio? there's libboost-all-dev but it doesn't include boost-asio lol, so I'm just wondering [17:36] should I be worried for getting this error?

[17:38] Al__: the $(pidof X) is actually a bash command >__> [17:38] or bash variable or whatever you wanna call it [17:38] (I'll then put all the backup data inside the new Linux partition [17:38] ) [17:38] try killing the DM through /etc/init.d/ or something maybe [17:39] NachOz, ahhh, thanks but I am shaky with bash commands.... [17:39] Al__: what window manager are you using? unity? [17:40] hi [17:40] Nach0z: s/window manager/desktop environment/ ;) [17:40] NachOz, Xfe. Is that such a window manager?

I feel too old though. I am from the Amiga OS days. [17:43] So I've made that file now (I think) what do I do further in order to install my current OS onto this external hard drive?

I am assuming that since your message is in the color red, that is a message to me? [17:45] Does anyone know about a synchronization utility called Synkron? [17:45] Al__: you just did ;) just use the nickname on the line, and that person will be highlighted (if there irc client is setup for that) [17:45] Al__ you can /query someone [17:45] Al__: yeah, it's a highlight [17:45] Any rsyslog experts here?

I am pretty sure he has a weird setup here. [17:59] FourFire: Use apt-clone to create a clone-file on the OLD partition. Then install as usual to the NEW partition. Configure grub to boot the new partition then use apt-clone to restore from the file on the OLD partition. [18:00] rtrm110, yes, it can be small like a txt file [18:00] gvo FourFire rtrm110 this example does the installed + manually installed packages > http://askubuntu.com/a/108760 [18:00] Al__: I'm not seeing any issue at all. its probably an issue with your desktop manager. can you tell me the output of: cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager capital X there [18:01] Do I need a payed landscape package to use UCCS?

Not on the new partition.

[18:07] hello [18:07] harrow [18:07] hi [18:07] I've got a question... [18:07] what's the question? [18:08] My laptop wouldn't boot at all before, I'm not sure why but I think it's a major hard drive failure. I'm currently running Tails OS from a USB and it seems to be working okay (atleast it's working) but I want to ask, if I'm booting Tails OS from a USB and it's working safely, should Ubuntu also work [18:08] padrino, why not try and see [18:08] Ubutuers who want to watch the 14.04 Convergence Plans live go to http://ubuntuonair.com/ now [18:09] I think running from usb is like running from live CD in Ram. Try to see if you can open a terminal and run badblocks. You might have to mount sda1/hda1 first. [18:09] Danato, thanks! [18:09] bazhang I came on here a while ago asking the same Q and I was told that if it's a hard drive failure, booting Ubuntu could cause the whole system to brick itself [18:10] padrino, then include that in your initial question next time [18:10] Al__ ok have a bunch of logs to get: sudo pastebinit /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log && sudo pastebinit /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log && sudo pastebinit /var/log/lightdm/x-0.log [18:10] Anyone correct me if I'm wrong about mounting or unmounting HDD before badblocks please [18:10] bazhang okay, sorry. I just wanted to see people's takes on it [18:10] Guest58721 I don't even understand what that means, haha :p [18:11] badblocks needs to be run on an unmounted FS. [18:11] ok so I'm saying " sudo apt-clone clone /dev/sda2 --source /dev/sda3" meaning that I want to place my clone file in sda2 (old windows partition D: ) and the clone file is to be of sda3 (my Linux) [18:11] badblocks scanns the blocks on your harddrive to see if they're readable. If not, it makes a note of it. If you get (I/O) input/output errors, then you'll probably need a new harddrive. [18:12] FourFire when I booted up Tails OS it said there was an error with sda3 but I just let it load and it seems to be working [18:12] FourFire: Please don't do that. [18:12] I'm getting an error "OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: '/dev/sda3/var' [18:12] " [18:12] gvo can you tell me what I should do then? [18:12] FourFire: You need to write to a file on a mounted file system, not a raw device. [18:12] Guest58721 when I booted up Tails it said there was an error with sda3 but I just let it load and it seems to be working... [18:12] the Linux partition is too small to contain itself [18:12] What would you suggest to do/ [18:13] Thanks for clearing up unmounted run for badblocks GVO [18:13] which is why I need to reformat in the first place [18:13] gvo isn't the windows D:\ a mounted filesystem? [18:13] it's unmountable from linux [18:14] FourFire: perhaps you're unclear what apt-clone does.... it ISN'T a drive imaging software! [18:14] FourFire. Do you have ubuntu installed already and it won't boot? [18:14] yeah, I honestly have no idea what I'm doing [18:14] apt-clone isn't cloning the system, it's just writing the files necessary to restore the packages again. [18:14] I'm In Ubuntu right now [18:14] the Ubuntu partition is too small, and I want to resize it [18:14] What is the lightweight distro of Ubuntu? [18:14] but I also want to save some files I have in my old windows partition [18:15] and I want to repair this hard drive (because of 50 bad sectors) [18:15] Do you have a usb drive ? [18:15] IUbuntu? [18:15] padrino: Lubuntu [18:15] FourFire how did you search for errors in hard drive [18:15] possibly I just want to install Linux on my spare drive and use that instead, because a drive that damaged is going to fail soon [18:15] I mean a thumb drive not a hard drive FourFie [18:15] zykotick9 thanks man [18:15] FourFire: 50 bad sectors = BUY A NEW HDD! [18:15] gvo yes [18:16] If you boot live you should be able to format the ubuntu partition only... leaving the windows fine. Ask GVO. He/She knows more. [18:16] it's one partition, freshly formatted to ext4 [18:16] OK mount it plug in. Use it as the output for your apt-clone command. [18:16] hitsujiTMO: I've got one, now how do I copy my system and files and everything over to it? [18:16] ok neat [18:17] Is the internal HDD even needed if you boot from thumb drive/USB?

[18:18] what is the ubuntu general chat? [18:18] yooozy: your best bet would be to ask in #bzr [18:18] Al__: [sudo] startx [18:18] !ot | padrino [18:18] padrino: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[18:19] Guest58721: Okay, thanks [18:19] Pici, no one answered me there ( [18:19] padrino: old: 1.5 years uptime, 6000+ power cycles, laptop, so it's been moving while on sometimes [18:20] Like /dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw) [18:20] FourFire I'm having same problem, to the point where it won't even boot windows :( [18:20] There should be one *** on /dev/sdc1 [18:21] padrino: that sucks, have you got an USB bootable ? [18:21] FourFire: if you've 50 bad sectors then expect what you get off the HDD to be corrupt. backup your /home and and global configs you need. [18:21] What's the ***? Probably /media/something === dean is now known as dean|away [18:21] Got an email from vps provider saying vps was attempting to send smtp mail at ~100+ times per ten minutes. However I'm not aware of any services that would be sending /that much/ mail in /that little/ timeframe. I've checked my mail log and the most recent entry is Oct 2. How can i find out what is trying to send smtp mail? [18:21] hitsujiTMO: We're working on that. [18:21] hitsujiTMO: Give me some time. [18:21] I made a fresh install of 13.10 with all the updates. I go to settings then click network, and on the general tab it has some setting pertaining to a firewall, but it is greyed out. How do I enable it? Is there a package I need to install?

The /media/... is the actual partition you can access from the computer. [18:23] ok [18:23] when setting up samba to share with windows users on network, would workgroup name to change in the conf file be homegroup? [18:24] FourFire: and that's where the output of the apt-clone is going. Are you running Ubuntu from the bad partition right now? [18:24] so what exact command do I need in order to copy my sda3 there? [18:24] yes [18:24] it's not bad, just too small [18:24] FourFire: What's on /dev/sda3 [18:24] Al__: did you recently change the lightdm theme? [18:24] Linux, some files [18:25] on sda2 is the old windows D:\ drive [18:25] where there' more files I want to save [18:25] al__ the theme you're currently using is corrupt it seems [18:25] hitsujiTMO: no [18:25] hitsujiTMO: interesting [18:25] FourFire: Back to the mount command, what is it mounted on? [18:25] FourFire: believe its cp [file location] [destination]. may need sudo [18:26] ask GVO: get confused between cp and mv [18:26] FourFire: Forget the guest. BAD info. [18:26] hitsujiTMO: As I say, the tech guy here set them up. These are classroom computers. Not personal ones [18:26] hi, I'm on saucy, and I run kernel 3.8.0-30-generic, is that normal? [18:26] thanks GVO. Just trying to help. [18:26] because the package linux-headers-3.8.0-30-generic seems to not exist in the saucy repos [18:26] there's "/dev/sda2 on /media/B67015DD7015A4E1 type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,d" [18:27] Al__: what version of ubuntu is this again? [18:27] hitsujiTMO: 12.04 [18:27] FourFire: So /dev/sda3 isn't in the mount table? [18:27] hitsujiTMO: or so he says [18:27] sorry I have sda5, not sda3 [18:27] Why is DNS so screwed up with Ubuntu [18:27] when I said sda3 I meant sda5 [18:27] "/dev/sda5 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro) [18:27] " [18:28] OK so what files from sda5 do you want to save? [18:28] I get dns servers from my router but my machine points to 127.0.0.1 [18:28] all of them [18:28] hitsujiTMO: I really appreciate the time you are taking. Sorry that it seems such a mess. We are all stressed out about how he has these set up! [18:28] tarvid: perhaps you run a dns server locally? [18:28] FourFire: No you don't [18:28] also I want this current installation of Linux copied over to the other drive, settings and all if possible [18:28] there's a few dns packages that do that [18:28] Not intentially [18:28] FourFire: That's not the way it works. [18:28] not sure if the ubuntu default one does [18:29] uhh. there too many to dig through right now, I'd rather copy them over and delete later [18:29] bind is not installed [18:29] hitsujiTMO: when I click on "help", it says it is 11.10 but the tech guy says it is 12.04 [18:29] al__: hmm i think the config for lightdm is a bit different from 13.10 so we're going to have to find the necessary file to change the theme [18:29] (also I have limited time right now so I probably have to do this later) [18:29] afaik they run a dns locally so they can implement dns caching, I think there's no dns caching in the kernel [18:29] FourFire: OK that changes everything. [18:29] al__: ls -l /etc/lightdm | pastebinit [18:30] tarvid: that localhost dns is normal for N-M... i don't know the details. [18:30] You don't have enought room you told me. [18:30] it does not work [18:30] is there a package on ubuntu 13.10 that will allow configuring the firewall from settings? [18:30] yes, on the old partition [18:30] I stupidly only gave linux 30GB [18:30] localhost is listening on port 53 [18:30] FourFire: How big is the new disk? [18:30] the drive has 138GB [18:30] both the old and new one [18:31] sorry, that's 228GB [18:31] could anyone tell me wether kernel 3.8.0-30 on saucy is normal, and why there's no headers for it? I'm a bit confused.. [18:31] (250GB but spare ?) [18:31] FourFire: is the new disk mounted? [18:31] yes [18:32] can anyone run uname -a for me? :P [18:32] FourFire: can you boot a live cd? [18:33] al__: to see the version: cat /etc/issue [18:33] I have an .iso of my current and an bootable USB stick [18:33] no CDs hanging around though [18:33] d-snp: 3.11.0-12-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 9 16:20:46 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [18:33] all of the same version [18:33] OK so you can boot an stick.

[18:41] hitsujiTMO: hopefully. You are so nice to take this time to look at it [18:41] al__: the x session is running. there's no errors. its just the app that loads it (lightdm) is prob where the issue is [18:41] Al__: ahhh, if you use ubuntu, you aren't expected to use startx. just sayin'. [18:41] how so? in system settings?

Been on that for about 5 minutes now, is that normal? [18:44] zykotick9: Yes, tell me about it :( the tech guy has our computers all screwed up! [18:44] hello everyone, I just installed iscan, and it's giving the error "could not send command to scanner. Check the scanner's status" [18:44] paddyboi: depends, if your computer is pretty old/netbook it could take some time [18:45] hitsujiTMO: So how do I switch back to the default? [18:45] hi [18:45] When I scanned before for errors, it said 1 error was found in one of the files. That's it [18:45] hitsujiTMO: I mean, is it an easy fix?

[18:46] KomiaPoika from Ubuntu website [18:46] Al__ can you get me: pastebinit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf should be a case of just changing the theme in the config file and rebooting [18:46] Then use USB universal installer to put on USB [18:46] it stuffed me with cd image i can't even mount [18:46] can anyone help me with the software "image scan for linux" please? [18:46] paddyboi: its better to talk here, so other people can help as wel.

[18:48] gvo, thanks, but i don't have usb-creator available [18:48] does anyone know why the firewall setting for a network interface would be greyed out in 13.10? [18:48] paddyboi: no problem, its hard to know these things if you're new ;) [18:48] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6412093 [18:48] KomiaPoika: Running Windows? [18:49] gvo: no, mac and I can't mount the iso to do it by hand [18:49] it says "no mountable file systems" [18:49] and usb-creator is not in macports [18:49] Can't help with a MAC [18:50] padrino: why would your laptop crash when ubuntu installs to the internal HD? [18:50] uh.. anyone got an idea what could be the issue if I'm logged in the system .. see both monitors.. (out of 3) but I don't see my TV (output via HDMI) .. the weird thing is .. I see the logo on the TV, and can output AUDIO ..but I don't detect it in the system :o WEIRD .. btw 12.04 :) [18:50] is it a non PAE processor? [18:50] trijntje my internal HDD has been failing for a while now because it's old (can't even get past booting screen for windows) which is why i chose to boot Ubuntu from USB as opposed to internal HDD [18:50] gvo: if i dd the iso onto a usb stick, will it boot? [18:51] KomiaPoika: should do [18:51] al__: ok, thats not the config with theme, try: pastebinit /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf [18:51] join #easynet [18:51] I don't think so. [18:51] padrino: now would be a great time to back up anything you want off that drive :-) [18:51] padrino: so where do you want to install ubuntu to? [18:51] gordonjcp I restored the PC a while ago so lost absolutely everything anyway [18:51] Find a friend with a linux system. [18:51] trijntje I'm not sure, I was just hoping it'd run from USB, similar to how Tails OS runs [18:52] padrino: should do [18:52] padrino: sure, but then you need to choose 'try without installing' from the usb [18:52] hello, maybe somebody can help me? i installed linux mint 14 Nadia in a pc. But is deleted all the PPA, and y need the Original PPA of ñlinux mint 14 nadia. somebody can help me? [18:53] trijntje Ah, okay man. I'll have to reboot when it's finished installing and do that :p [18:53] Hello all! === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [18:53] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6412130 [18:53] droimerak: I think this is a ubuntu support channel. [18:53] yes, i think so,. thanx aniway [18:54] padrino: if its an older laptop you could also try xubuntu or lubuntu, its more lightweight than normal ubuntu [18:54] does anyone know if there is a package in 13.10 that will add firewall configuration to the settings? [18:54] or should I just use one of the many front-ends? [18:54] to dd an iso onto a usb stick, do i have to write: dd if=disc.iso of=/dev/disk8s1 or of=/Volumes/UNTITLED? [18:54] ufw | phirestalker [18:54] Al__: sweet. now to find out what themes are on the system.: ls -l /usr/share/themes/ | pastebinit [18:54] !ufw | phirestalker [18:54] phirestalker: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [18:55] On 12.04.3, I have an app which can't connect to a server, says "getaddrinfo: Name or service not known". However, I can use nslookup and dig and it resolves. straceing the app, it says "28148 connect(5, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/avahi-daemon/socket...28148 write(5, "RESOLVE-HOSTNAME-IPV4 snlab032.s".." Never had DNS not "just work"-- do I need to configure avahi somehow? [18:55] zykotick9: thanks [18:55] KomiaPoika: to /dev/correct_disk. But please be carefull, if you mess up with dd you can trash your system [18:56] <__blasty> alright so im trying to 'sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev:i386', but it wont let me [18:56] trijntje: if i'm sure which is the usb disc nothing can go wrong systemwide right [18:56] My guess is avahi is redirecting out to the Internet somehow-- perhaps daisy.ubuntu.com? THis is a local DNS name, so if it's bypassing by local DNS servers, it won't resolve. [18:56] <__blasty> probably because it's a bad idea(tm) anyone have pointers for getting 32bit gl libs going on 64bit ubuntu 12.10 ? [18:56] KomiaPoika: DD won't give you what you want. [18:56] KomiaPoika: if you write to the correct usb disk, nothing will go wrong [18:56] gvo: won't make my usb stick bootable ubuntu from the laptop? [18:57] It's time to make friends with a near by linux user or even a windows user. [18:57] KomiaPoika: No [18:57] KomiaPoika: try this: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx [18:57] so, how do i go about creating a bootable ubuntu install on usb without usb-creator? [18:57] KomiaPoika: If it did there would be no need for thel likes of usb-creatore or unetbootin [18:57] trijntje: thx [18:58] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6412158 [18:59] hi, can someone please give me a helping hand.

[19:09] [19:10] uncle_ben: right click on the speaker and bring up the mixer. Make sure the settings are right in the hardware tab and in the input tab make sure it's not muted and the volume is set to a reasonable level. [19:11] Al__: that should reinstall the corrupted theme. if that was the cause of the greeter breaking then it should fix the issue. fingers crossed and can you try and reboot again [19:11] hi. having problems with efi. the ubuntu installation dies almost at the end when trying to install grub. [19:11] hitsujiTMO: Pardon another question... What exactily is the "greeter"? [19:12] I mean exactly... [19:12] i need to install some fonts on a server that has no GUI, for the purposes of rendering PDFs [19:13] hitsujiTMO: I mean exactly, not exactily lol [19:13] from the instructions i found online, i seem to be missing the fc-cache application [19:13] al__ its the layout of the login screen. lightdm is what loads the greeter. and the lightdm log shows it closing right after it opens [19:13] Al__. lightdm , the login page [19:13] Is Ubuntu installation the same as Lubuntu? [19:13] Pad, yes [19:13] BluesKaj: ahhhh, thanks!

Is it safe to just power off computer? [19:15] padrino: are you sure its not your RAM thats faulty, rather than the harddisk? [19:15] ya just pull the plug [19:15] trijjntje maybe, not sure. But running from USB (no installation) was working fine [19:15] linuxfan8650: pulling the plug on laptop doesn't do much [19:16] padrino: Go for it. [19:16] hahahaha [19:16] Ture, I don't use laptops only desktops [19:16] Just gonna run from USB without installation and use it for browsing the web only [19:16] Al__: so after the reboot if its the same issue, we can try reinstalling lightdm. [19:16] hitsujiTMO: How would I go back to what it is now? What would be the command? You see, the tech guy may be mad and make me put it back to how it was! [19:16] padrino The only other option is to use it as a door stop. [19:16] padrino: if you hold shift during start from usb, you get a menu where you can choose 'memtest'. Run that for a couple of hours, if you get any errors your RAM is bad [19:17] gvo lol [19:17] al__: you haven't actually changed anything. just reinstalled the theme [19:17] hitsujiTMO: okay... [19:17] trijntje yeah I've ran that before and there were a few errors. How much would it cost to replace RAM approx? [19:17] I have a problem with dirthering graphics and puple and green youtube videos [19:17] padrino I suggest maybe you attempt to put puppy linux or dsl on there to prove that it'll run linux. [19:18] padrino: It can cost as much as a new laptop when they don't make the memory any longer. [19:18] padrino: no idea, but if the ram is faulty ubuntu wont install/run properly [19:18] gvo it ran Tails OS fine which is a Linux distro [19:18] From disk? [19:18] padrino: you can run memtest again, write down the adresses of the ba [19:18] d [19:18] gvo nope, from USB [19:18] i have an efi problem. I try to install ubuntu but grub can't get installed at the end and I get an error that kills the installation [19:19] how do i encrypt hard drive at install time? [19:19] padrino: I'm thinking it's just not enought of a system to run Ubuntu maybe. [19:19] al__ have you tried the reboot? [19:19] padrino; of the bad blocks, and use 'badram' to exclude those. Then you can still use the laptop [19:19] Installed ubuntu 13.04 on a laptop with Windows 8, but grub doesn't appear..any ideas? [19:19] Komia, there is a check box you check to encrypt the disk [19:19] Uuser, change boot options in bios [19:20] gvo I'm only running Lubuntu but yeah [19:20] Komia, that happens during the install [19:20] padrino: that should be OK [19:20] gvo what is the lightest of the light version? Something similar to Tails but not with all the privacy shit [19:20] padrino: I agree with the others that bad ram will give you fits. [19:20] padrino: DSL and PUppy are the lightest. [19:21] linuxfan8650: don't see such boxes [19:21] padrino: you cant run anything with bad ram, unless you tell your linux to not use the damaged adresses [19:21] exactly [19:21] trijntje how was I able to run Tails? [19:21] I can boot but I've to choose the boot options or was it boot device not remember everytime... why I don't get the usual grub screen? [19:21] i'm at installation type: erase disk... or "something else" [19:21] I was talking to you on Tails about 20 minutes ago from the dodgy laptop [19:22] yes, it rebooted! [19:22] padrino: Because you are running using part of the ram as disk and it's possible that the part of ram the OS is running from isn't bad. [19:22] hitsujiTMO: yes, it rebooted! [19:22] i have an efi problem. I try to install ubuntu but grub can't get installed at the end and I get an error that kills the installation [19:22] padrino: if the damaged ram is high up, you will only access it when you use a lot of memory. So lightweight stuff might go well for a while before it crashes [19:22] al__ you get black screen still? [19:22] trijntje ah ok, thanks for the explanation :-) [19:22] Komia is should be on the screen after you slect to wipe disk and then it offers to enrypet the dislk [19:22] trijntje so with bad RAM there's nothing I can do? [19:23] hi all [19:23] hitsujiTMO: nope. [19:23] linuxfan8650: ok [19:23] al__ is it back to normal? [19:23] hitsujiTMO: this looks good [19:23] I wanna switch over to ubuntu from linux mint [19:23] .query arunpandiyan-mur [19:23] WHOis [19:23] I got the iso in hard drive [19:23] Brown: [00:51] (Uuser) I can boot but I've to choose the boot options or was it boot device not remember everytime... why I don't get the usual grub screen? [19:23] linuxfan8650: you mean after timezone selection or do i have to go into advanced partitioning? [19:23] k [19:23] hitsujiTMO: it did only do the black command screen once in a while. randomly. [19:24] padrino: yes there is, but you will need to know where the damage is. For example, if you have 2G ram and the damage is at 1.8, tell ubuntu you only have 1.7 and you'll be fine ;) [19:24] hitsujiTMO: hopefully it will never do it again! [19:24] hitsujiTMO: So, now one final question.... [19:24] trijntje alright thanks, would it be possible for you to tell me how to check where the bad RAM is? [19:24] KomiaPoika yes after time zones, but not on Advanced Partitioning [19:24] linuxfan8650: i see: encrypt home folder option, but how do i go encrypt the entire disk? [19:25] I don't you can do the whole disk [19:25] with alternate install in text mode you used to be able to [19:25] Maybe use truecrypt then [19:26] padrino: you will need to run memtest again, and write down where the damage is [19:26] i have an efi problem. I try to install ubuntu but grub can't get installed at the end and I get an error that kills the installation [19:26] hitsujiTMO: I have several other computers, some of which also have the problem. To fix them, all I need to do is the reinstall shimmer-themes ???? [19:26] padrino: the thing you are looking for is 'badram', if you google that with ubuntu you get plenty of hits: http://askubuntu.com/questions/151843/exclude-bad-ram-bytes [19:27] Uuser: truecrypt can't encrypt a disk at install time [19:27] hitsujiTMO: Just this one line sudo apt-get install --reinstall shimmer-themes [19:27] KomiaPoika: You have to do that by hand I think, choose 'advanced partitioning' or something like that [19:27] al__ if its all the same issue then yes. Did the guy try to customise the theme? [19:27] Oy. Does anyone have an idea why a file named 'core' continues to pop up in my home directory? I delete it daily. [19:27] I meant after installation [19:27] sudo apt-get remove windows [19:27] Al__: yes that command will reinstall the theme [19:28] I Updated the Grub Menu Entry to install The UBUNTU , but it doesnt work [19:28] Any Idea guys [19:28] Error Code 0146. Msg: 2000-0146 [19:28] Msg: Hard Drive 0 - self test log contains previous errors [19:29] hitsujiTMO: Yes! The tech guy has tried to customize lots of stuff! [19:29] padrino you have a bad HDD then [19:29] does ubuntu support efi installation? [19:29] Faryshta yes [19:29] linuxfan8650 so might not be the RAM? [19:30] SMART is always your HDD. [19:30] padrino: if memtest gives errors, its always the RAM. Maybe your hd is broke as well though [19:30] padrino how old is this laptop [19:30] trijntje haven't done memtest, just did the diagnostics test [19:30] al__: try that command on the other computers and see if it fixes them so. He should learn to thoroughly test his cusomisations before deploying them :P [19:31] customizations* [19:31] linuxfan8650: can you help me on how? I get an error when installing ubuntu that grub-efi couldn't be installed [19:32] faryshta are you dual booting? [19:32] linuxfan8650: I deleted the windows partition and trying to install ubuntu [19:33] faryshta, then go in your BIOS and change it to legicey boot or turn off UFIE [19:33] faryshta: 64 bit or 32 bit? [19:33] I tried hibernating to test if my PC would be compatible and it hibernated fine. Now I can't reboot unless I load a previous kernel. How do I fix this? [19:34] It's doing memory test activity, don't think that's the one you were on about though [19:34] linuxfan8650: how do I do that on bios? [19:34] prfff, my usb stick doesn't boot anymore... have to dd it again [19:34] gvo: 64 [19:34] hi, im asking for some help, does anyone knows how to compile an appilcation in linux? [19:34] faryshta who makes your PC or laptop? [19:34] faryshta: I agree with linuxfan8650 change bios. [19:35] linuxfan8650 gvo asus x55a. how do I change that option on bios? [19:35] dreamy_: usually you cd to the directory, type 'configure', then type 'make', then 'make install' [19:35] ./configure [19:35] press f2 or del at boot [19:36] wjtaylor, id like to practice some chess, and i got a old linux version and id like to play it on line [19:36] faryshta http://serenadetoacuckooo.blogspot.com/2013/04/installing-ubuntu-1304-on-asus-x55a.html [19:36] dreamy_: compilation instructions can be (sometimes) application-specific. What exactly are you trying to compile? [19:36] yes guest [19:37] dreamy_: can you provide me a link, so that I can check? === panda-pc is now known as sergios [19:37] I think chess.com would be easier and offer you more options, if I'm understanding you correctly. [19:38] Faryshta did you get the link [19:38] dreamy_, old ubuntu version? [19:38] dreamy_ ^^^ [19:38] Guest46026, id like to install a chess game so that i could play it online [19:38] dreamy_: can you tell which chess game is this? [19:38] dreamy_: You normally don' [19:38] t have to install things to play online [19:38] unless your running your own server [19:39] linuxfan8650: reading it. [19:39] linuxfan8650: so far I am having trouble with boot repair. i am at work and we use a proxy script. [19:39] linuxfan8650: so I don't know how to use that script on apt-get [19:40] OerHeks, yes im using an old ubntu version. so ..since i cant use synaptics, ill have to compile [19:40] !build [19:40] Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [19:41] faryshta, that link is a dual boot setup, so deal with the part of the link that talks about getting in to your BIOS and look around in there for a way to turn off UFIE and turn if off totally [19:41] help when I try to go into recovery mode, it keeps spamming "'timeout: killing: /sbin/modprobe ......" i cant type anything into the console! === Mars is now known as Guest78439 [19:41] dreamy_, i hope the servers are up for your version, you need to install some packages [19:41] dreamy_: you'll need tyo install the build dependencies and build-essentials. if you're on an EOL version of ubuntu then this will not be possible [19:41] linuxfan8650: i don't get your advice [19:42] linuxfan8650: faryshta there should be no need to disable uefi. or you trying to dual boot with a bios install of windows? [19:42] hello there! how can I use the character: ñ on the console? [19:43] dreamy_: synaptic used to come with old versions of ubuntu. In newer ubuntu versions synaptic doesnt comes by default. You can install it through the software center though. The software center is also the preferred way to install software. I'd recommend you to search the chess game you're wanting to use on the software center first [19:43] malev: same way you just used it now. or do you see a square? [19:43] it does not prints anythong [19:43] *anything [19:43] dreamy_: I'm still very curious to know which chess game is this [19:44] try copy and paste it into the console [19:44] guest46026: me too [19:44] malev^^ [19:44] hitsujiTMO: tried, does not work [19:44] malev is that a character on your keyboard? [19:45] gvo: no, it does not. but I can print it here: ñ :) it seems to be a problem with locale [19:45] malev: do you see anything at all instead of it? even a blank space? [19:45] hitsujiTMO: only ubuntu. uninstalled windows [19:45] hitsujiTMO: I don't see anything [19:45] malev So you want to be able to enter that character from your keyboard? [19:45] yes! [19:45] gvo: yes! [19:45] malev: what font are you using in the terminal? [19:45] malev: are you using a terminal emulator or directly via a tty? [19:46] I don't think it's fonts problem [19:46] Pici: tty [19:46] faryshta: have you tried installing yet and was there any error? [19:47] malev: didn't we talk about this a few weeks ago? [19:47] hitsujiTMO: yes. I am on the liveUSB right now. When I tried I got that grub-efi couldn't be installed [19:47] Guest46026, dont you know chess, the board game? [19:48] faryshta: can you run this: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit efibootmgr [19:48] dreamy_: oh sure. I know chess. I think want to install some software, a computer program to play chess, right? [19:48] grub menu not appears.. can any body help [19:48] ???? [19:48] arunpandiyan-mur: What do you see instead? [19:48] Pici: don't think so [19:48] hitsujiTMO: no i can't but i have efibootmgr already installed [19:48] !details | arunpandiyan-mur [19:48] arunpandiyan-mur: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [19:49] faryshta: can you pastebin the output of: sudo efibootmgr [19:49] malev try running this http://paste.ubuntu.com/6412384/ [19:50] hitsujiTMO: Okay, I will try this on all the other computers. I think he is just trying to make us all think he is a genius or something with his customizing [19:50] hitsujiTMO: my proxy blocks pastebin http://paste.ofcode.org/pLLmZNfr8Riffj9TegV6a7 === gianni is now known as Guest44885 [19:50] hitsujiTMO: Have a nice day [19:50] al__ ty [19:51] gvo: xmodmap isn't really goiong to help with anything thats just on a tty and not in X [19:51] faryshta: so efi does work. what arcitecture iso are on? [19:51] dreamy_: try to search for chess on the software center. It is very likely that you'll find what you're looking for. [19:51] hitsujiTMO: 64bits [19:51] Oh didn't realize he's on a tty [19:51] ubottu and Rory : I am an user of LINUX MINT, I wanna to switch to Ubuntu , So I decided and got ISO from Ubuntus site, and as per the instructions to install linux distro form hard disk , I have modified the the grub.d/40_custom by adding a menu entry in it.. And I ran the Update Grub command , and reboooted my machine to get into Ubuntu.. But nothing happens, going into mint as usual [19:51] arunpandiyan-mur: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:52] heeelp, is there a command to supress error warnings? i want to get into recovery mode root shell, but I get spammed with weird error messages [19:52] faryshta: is gdisk installed? try: sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda pastebin the results [19:52] ubottu I'm just in [19:52] arunpandiyan-mur: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:52] arunpandiyan-mur: Can you boot from your Ubuntu Live CD and run the boot-repair tool https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [19:52] gvo: (sidenote) a tty is actually ANY terminal (console OR xorg). the F1-F6 are technically called consoles or linux-consoles [19:53] malev: You may want to look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Extra_Keyboard_Keys_in_Console and askubuntu.com/questions/23610/tty-unicode-problem for more info [19:53] Pici: thanks!! [19:53] The problem is right now i dont have USB drive / Live CD [19:53] So I just decided to go with Hard Drive Installation [19:53] faryshta: what way did you install ubuntu? did you tell it to install itself, or did you specify the partitioning? [19:54] hellooooo [19:54] zykotick9: Sure, but it's common to differentiate by tty as a non X terminal. [19:54] I understood what he said. [19:54] is there a way to repair my sudoers file without going into recovery mode?? [19:54] hitsujiTMO: let me try [19:55] Neurotoxin: live cd and mount the hdd is the only other option [19:55] gvo: i'm just saying, using the wrong terminology can cause problems - down the road. we should call things by there real names, don't you thing? [19:55] Neurotoxin: You could boot from a Live CD; you need root access to write that file [19:55] Neurotoxin: what hitsujiTMO said. [19:55] zykotick9: Good luck with that. I agree for what it's worth. ;) [19:55] okk, Rory do i have root access from live cd? [19:56] hitsujiTMO: the first time I created a customized partition with /home separated and encrypted. then i tried several times with default installation no encryption [19:56] Neurotoxin: Usually if not direct, from sudo without a password. [19:56] okk thx [19:56] faryshta: did you create an efi system partition? [19:57] sometimes i think linux is neverending fail,,,, try to fix something... sudo breaks... try to fix sudo... recovery mode doesnt work.... [19:57] faryshta: what version of ubuntu is this 13.10 or 12.04? [19:57] hitsujiTMO: yes. the first time i did, from then on the default installed created it [19:57] hitsujiTMO: but the problem is with grub-efi which can't get installed [19:57] Neurotoxin: visudo is there so you don't break sudoers file [19:57] Neurotoxin: What did you do to break sudo? [19:57] hitsujiTMO: 13.10 [19:58] faryshta:you mean grub-efi-amd64? [19:58] hitsujiTMO: yes [19:58] Rory followed a tutorial even on ubuntuwiki to execute a script with sudo rights in autostart..... broke everything [19:58] Neurotoxin: If you use visudo be sure to edit the mounted files system sudoers file, not the one on the CD. [19:58] faryshta: is the problem that it needs to download the package from the net but cant because of the proxy? [19:59] http://paste.ofcode.org/3bSWVj7y9jmAXJ5UvGFhfa [19:59] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ofcode.org/3bSWVj7y9jmAXJ5UvGFhfa [19:59] Neurotoxin: Don't just type visudo [19:59] hitsujiTMO: I have no idea. I just get an error that grub-efi couldn't be installed [19:59] hitsujiTMO: if you want i can restart the all process and copy/paste the error here. it will take me 10 mins [20:00] faryshta: please do. it definately created the efi system partition at least [20:00] ok back in 10 mins [20:01] hitsujiTMO: now the install program doesn't start :/ [20:01] :P just restart the disk again :P [20:02] hitsujiTMO: if I do it will take me half hour to set all the network settings again [20:02] faryshta: ok 2 secs then [20:02] Guys, I'm a bit baffled on my ubuntu box I have networking IP statically assigned to eth0 and I have "dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8" in the /etc/network/interfaces file.. am I missing something.. I have no DNS resolution at all. I can ping any IPs I want but it's acting like I have no DNS server setup. [20:02] faryshta: we'll see if we can finish the install manually [20:03] tambu ls -l /etc/resolv.conf [20:03] Neurotoxin: What tutorial were you following, and can you link it so I can check it's OK? What part broke sudo? [20:04] on hitsujiTMO: no use. i will reboot the live usb and connect again [20:04] faryshta: can you pastebin the outputs of: sudo blkid and: mount [20:04] faryshta: wait [20:04] hitsujiTMO: ok [20:04] gvo: that is where I would have normally set it but now it says DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE by hand.. and from what I read online ti says to use /etc/network/interfaces file [20:04] hitsujiTMO: wut' [20:04] faryshta: if its just grub then we can install that [20:04] hitsujiTMO: ok how? [20:04] tambu Is it a real file or a link? [20:04] faryshta: chroot [20:05] tambu: The nameservers go in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base [20:05] hmmm try to find it [20:05] tambu: At least that's where I've put mine and it seems to work [20:05] gvo: oh i see lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Sep 11 2012 /etc/resolv.conf -> ../run/resolvconf/resolv.conf [20:05] faryshta: can you pastebin the outputs of: sudo blkid and: mount [20:05] tambu, try " sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf "and reboot [20:05] hitsujiTMO: otionne question. if i reboot all the programs installed on liveusb will be lost? [20:05] tambu, 8.8.8.8 is an existing network address not vailable for private networks [20:05] faryshta: yes they will be lost [20:06] hitsujiTMO: then i must reboot before installing grub [20:06] lapion: tambu is trying to set that as a default nameserver, it's one of Google's nameservers [20:06] lapion: I'm not sure I follow it's google's DNS server I use it for all my computers [20:06] hitsujiTMO: the installer doesn't start [20:06] faryshta: don't need the installer [20:06] hitsujiTMO: ok [20:06] OerHeks: I tried the dpkg command gonna reboot see how that takes it [20:07] faryshta: just pastebin the outputs of: sudo blkid and: mount [20:07] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ofcode.org/W9vPSadhJ3wLvr4BMpiE6D blkid [20:07] Rory here!!!! http://askubuntu.com/questions/197536/running-a-startup-program-in-terminal-as-sudo the first answer, when inserting this line it fukks up everything, this liar! [20:08] yeah I'm sorry my mistake [20:08] hello, is there a way to "reset" my ubuntu to what it was when I installed the OS? [20:08] hitsujiTMO: mount http://paste.ofcode.org/34AtipNwwfZCGzyPkTsgkhs [20:09] cpined short of reinstalling, probably not. [20:09] ok...:( [20:09] cpined, unless it's just the user configs, and then you can delete & recreate your home folder [20:09] gvo I like your answer lol! [20:09] Neurotoxin: What actual line did you add to sudoers. All that line does is allow a specific user to run a specific command as root without a password, at least when it is typed correctly [20:09] cpined maybe if you used btrfs as your filesystem [20:09] faryshta: cd ~; mkdir install; sudo mount /dev/sda2 install; [20:10] maujhsn: I think it's accurate, if not helpful. ; [20:10] I've installed some packages that I no longer want... [20:10] maybe i mistyped it or put it at the wrong place, had no idea how important that file is [20:10] cpined you can remove them [20:10] faryshta: can you pastebin the output of: ls -ld install/boot/efi [20:10] what's the correct way of adding to the search paths in resolv.conf — I cna't decipher `man resolvconf` at all [20:11] is there a way to identify what I have installed then decide what to remove? [20:11] I'd hate to go off my memory. [20:11] hitsujiTMO: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 14 06:46 install/boot/efi [20:11] cpined dpkg -l | grep ^ii | awk {'print $2'} > ~/packagesinstalled.txt will tell you everything that's installed. [20:11] you can do a release update which can revert/uninstall packages that weren't from the main install. [20:12] hitsujiTMO: efi folder is empty [20:12] faryshta: sudo mount /dev/sda1 install/boot/efi [20:12] thanks [20:12] do I then do apt-get remove? or apt-get purge? [20:12] hitsujiTMO: done. efi folder not found [20:13] faryshta: cd ~ [20:13] sudo mount /dev/sda1 install/boot/efi [20:13] boot folder doesn't exists hitsujiTMO [20:14] OerHeks: well rebooted after the suggested command and I still have no DNS set in /etc/resolv.conf this seems really weird..w as fine until I reboot yesterday.. I assume must have been an ubuntu update that broke something and didn't notice till reboot [20:14] cpined: purge removes all traces. More or less, any config files or left over directories. apt-get remove removes everything but configs & dirs [20:14] gvo, Is this right? "dpkg -l | grep ^ii | awk {'print $2'} > ~/packagesinstalled.txt" [20:14] faryshta: whats the output of: pwd [20:15] hitsujiTMO: i made a mistake on one command, starting again [20:15] ok [20:15] tambu: Ubuntu's using NetworkManager + dnsmasq by default, so it's a few layers of obfuscation. [20:15] maujhsn: That will tell you all of the installed packages [20:15] my ubuntu went crazy [20:15] hitsujiTMO: done right this time [20:15] NetworkManager claims it's not managing my wired interfaces anymore [20:15] can you pastebin the output of: mount [20:15] I wr [20:16] faryshta: can you pastebin the output of: mount [20:16] maujhsn: That includes the ones that came with the origirnal system, however. Not just the one's you added. [20:16] gvo, I learn something new every day in Ubuntu! [20:16] tambu: OK. See if dnsmasq is running [20:16] iI write stuff with the keybo a0ard andit writes anything, sometimes deletes what I write [20:16] guis its 8812au compatible with aircrack-ng ? [20:16] <[Gentoo]> lukodiablo: its a driver [20:16] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ofcode.org/uQYUqkPCtQPvd8KRAwRQ3H [20:17] hitsujiTMO: i think i blew it a little [20:17] <[Gentoo]> lukodiablo: im pretty sure most will work [20:17] kyle__: I have a dnsmasq process running .. though technically may have just started it when I ran the command it shows a current start time [20:17] faryshta: sudo umount /dev/sda2 [20:17] faryshta: sudo umount /dev/sda1 [20:18] tambu: I've not had a lot of luck with making dns work either. I finally just resorted to making resolv.conf a normal file and editing it. [20:18] faryshta: please pastebin: mount [20:18] for example in the terminal I write a space and it shows " ~" [20:18] gentoo: may it is.. but i can not enable 8812au for monitor mode... [20:18] tambu: There are some articles out there detailing how to tell NM not to cache DNS using dnsmasq. You may have to do that, THEN fix the resolv.conf issue. [20:18] done. the last 4 lines of the mount command dissapeared [20:18] hitsujiTMO: [20:19] gvo, I tried the command and got nothing! [20:19] IMHO Ubuntu dns resolving is too complex/ [20:19] faryshta: sudo mount /dev/sda2 install && sudo mount /dev/sda1 install/boot/efi [20:19] Is anyone familiar with how Ubuntu's apt repositories are updated? For example, I'm trying to be PCI Compliant and scanning my software, and for instance curl version 7.22 is vulnerable and has a CVE. That's the latest version of curl you can get using apt-get upgrade, though. Curl seems to now be on 7.33...

[20:26] tambu: good luck service networking restart usually works but sometimes it takes a reboot. I don't quite understand why. [20:26] faryshta: i need to go afk for 3 or 4 mins. let me know if there's a problem with that apt-get. we may have to manually get the packages [20:27] maujhsn: No, the file is there and you wrote to it. So now edit it and you will see the results of the command. Or do a more /home/maujhsn/packagesinstalled.txt [20:27] hitsujiTMO: Package grub-efi-amd64 is not available, but is referred to by another package. [20:28] gvo, "Very interesting"..."Very Interesting"! [20:28] maujhsn: The "script" I gave you writes its output to that file. You have to then look at the file to see what it says. You do that with and editor, or the more command or the less command or if you like to watch crap spin by, the cat command. [20:29] do that with an editor, [20:29] Hey guys..

[20:31] maujhsn: "no problem" [20:31] np == no problem. [20:31] Ok [20:32] sounds like bug to me [20:32] Machtin: pavucontrol [20:33] gvo: What about it? [20:33] Does it run? [20:33] looks like this: http://i.stack.imgur.com/3P84u.png [20:34] Just as a general FYI I added my "nameserver 8.8.8.8" command to the /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file as someone suggested (sorry can't scrollback to give credit).. my DNS is now working after doing a "service resolvconf restart" it shows the dns server in /etc/resolv.conf.. and it survives a reboot.. I'm not sure if this is the "correct" way but at this point it works :) Thanks to whowever suggested the base file! [20:34] Machtin: I assume you tried the suggestion in the error message. [20:34] faryshta: apt-get update && apt-get install grub-efi-amd64 [20:35] gvo: you partially assume wrong. Wouldn't know where to change the environment variable.. or to what [20:35] hitsujiTMO: ok [20:35] The last line [20:35] gvo: correct, doesn't run. [20:35] Any error message from the start-pulseaudio... command? [20:35] Connection failure: Connection refused pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused [20:36] faryshta: what version of ubuntu did you say this was again? [20:36] Have you tried it as root? === AndresSM_away is now known as AndresSM [20:36] gvo: sudo.. same thing [20:36] hitsujiTMO: 13.10 [20:36] except for an additional "Home directory not accessible: Permission denied" [20:36] Machtin: Try this pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio -vvvvv [20:37] faryshta: did that install or is there errors getting the update/packages? [20:37] Machtin: wait [20:37] E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to kill daemon: No such file or directory [20:37] hitsujiTMO: updating [20:37] Hello. I have a problem with Ubuntu 13.10. A desktop session was locked and I clicked on "switch user". The screen got black with only a blinking cursor top left and the mouse pointer. How to get my session back? [20:37] machtin first tun off respawn by editin ~/.pulse/client.conf and putting in the line autospawn = no [20:38] Machtin: Then run pulseaudio -vvvvv [20:38] i can't boot into windows anymore and my wifi doesn't work in ubuntu anymore, but works fine in installer... === Thor|Away is now known as Thorium220 [20:39] gvo: my client.conf is in /etc/pulse - i don't seem to have .pulse in my home directory [20:39] if i use gnome alsa-mixer and change settings...will they persist when i exit the program or do i have to save the state (as root) at the command line? [20:39] uncle_ben: they're supposed to persist [20:39] uncle_ben: if they don't something is awry [20:39] Machtin: mkdir ~/.pulse [20:39] reisio, ok...i'll test it with a reboot! [20:40] faryshta: ping me when its done [20:40] uncle_ben: testing ftw === GingerGeek is now known as GingerGeek[Away] [20:40] lol [20:40] Machtin: Then create .pulseaudio/client.conf [20:40] Sorry .pulse/client.conf [20:41] gvo: .pulse and .pulseaudio as directories? [20:41] ah, kk [20:41] Machtin, Yes! [20:41] Machtin: My fingers get away from me. [20:42] Machtin "Pulseaudio...is the BOMB! [20:42] Machtin: If you don't have paman installed, install it. [20:42] it may well be the best audio package that almost nobody needs ever :) [20:43] how do i fix my windows boot? i can't boot into it, it just displays a screen the color of the grub menu and nothing happens? [20:43] Machtin, Install pavucontrol if it isn't installed! [20:43] wolfybox: you think this has to do with Ubuntu? [20:43] faryshta: is the network there pretty slow? [20:43] hitsujiTMO: done, no errors [20:43] hitsujiTMO: yes. proxy is shit [20:43] maujhsn: It is installed and isn't working. [20:44] faryshta: cat /proc/mounts > /etc/mtab [20:44] gvo, can try to purge it and reinstall [20:44] wheatthin: What? [20:44] Good idea! [20:44] pulseaudio. [20:44] faryshta: update-grub && grub-install [20:44] hitsujiTMO: done, no errors [20:45] purge and re-install [20:45] wheatthin: I don't think that's it. I think the problem is upstream from that, perhaps missing modules. === Mars is now known as Guest17043 [20:45] hitsujiTMO: Boot0000* ubuntu Installation finished. No error reported. [20:45] how do i fix my wifi in ubuntu? this is what lsusb tells me about it: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 1286:2043 Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. [20:45] faryshta: fingers crossed that your reboot will bring you into your xubuntu installation :P [20:45] wheatthin: the pulseaudio application won't run. If it doesn't run the mixer won't be of much use. [20:46] hitsujiTMO: ok rebooting [20:46] hitsujiTMO: even if it doesn't work. thanks [20:46] gvo: the command gives a lot of output and ends in "Floating point exception (core dumped)" [20:46] faryshta: np [20:46] hitsujiTMO: very appreciated [20:46] gvo the guy really needs to purge PA and reinstall! [20:46] gvo, so purging pulseaudio might work due to whatever corruption/uninstalled module to load after a clean install [20:47] maujhsn: long done. [20:47] Machtin: That's your problem. Do you see any other errors? So these guys obviously know more than I do, so reinstall pa. [20:47] if alsamixer is working, but pulse audio isn't.. [20:47] gvo: I did a couple of times already [20:47] wheattin I with you on this one! [20:47] Machtin: If it doesn't work, come back and I'll try to help some more. [20:48] gvo: like I said.. happened several times (deinstalling, installing and purgin/installing) [20:49] Machtin: OK so install paman, but I suspect you've found a bug. [20:49] Machtin If it still doesn't work with the suggestions we gave you, leave PULSE alone! [20:49] I did install that, what to do with it now? [20:49] maujhsn: how to handle my sound then in a halfway decent manner? [20:50] Machtin: Run it [20:50] gvo: uh. connection refused.. all the data is n/a [20:51] Machtin There is OSS, GStreamer as alternatives! [20:51] how do i fix my wifi in ubuntu? this is what lsusb tells me about it: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 1286:2043 Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. WIFI works in liveusb but not in ubuntu [20:51] anyway. maujhsn my problem is.. I have more than one sound card and I want to be able to chose which card to output from, depending on the application.. e.g. headset links to skype. [20:51] oss is deprecated tho isn't it? [20:51] wheatthin: yup [20:51] Machtin: I'm guessing it's a bug. [20:52] gvo: me too. :( [20:52] and gstreamer runs on top of something else [20:52] as does pulse [20:52] Pulseaudio...is GOD! [20:52] hitsujiTMO: you are a genius. [20:52] !yay | faryshta [20:52] hitsujiTMO: do you have any project where I can contribute? [20:52] faryshta: Glad you made it! :-) [20:52] maujhsn: except when ti doesn't work. [20:53] lol [20:53] faryshta: lol not atm [20:53] hitsujiTMO: do you have email? i would love to keep in touch [20:53] i don't give out my email. but I'm on this channel very regularly [20:54] hitsujiTMO: cool and thanks again [20:54] see you soon [20:54] faryshta: np [20:55] From a technical point of view, What do Ubuntu and Debian have in common, besides the package manager? [20:55] Machtin: Just one more thing. Did you do a fresh install of the OS or upgrade from 13.04? [20:55] is there anyway of checking a windows partition from inside ubuntu [20:55] gvo: upgrade [20:55] Machtin: You might have a stale config file laying around. [20:56] even after purging? === marshall is now known as Guest38230 [20:56] Machtin: It's possible. [20:57] Just for the heck of it, create a new user, log in as the new user and run the pulseaudio -vvvvv again. [20:57] Guest254: Different package versions and configs, mostly [20:57] hi [20:57] Machtin: You can also use the guest user instead of creating a new user [20:57] gvo: fair enough.. be back soon [20:58] nah, got another one i created recently anyway [20:58] wolfybox: By "checking" do you mean the equivelant of Windows chkdsk? === BradCrittenden is now known as bac [20:59] wolfybox: FAT32 or NTFS? [21:00] Rory: thanks [21:00] test [21:00] eh [21:01] is it possible to "map" a ddns name -my.domain.com like in /etc/hosts ? like a reverse lookup ? [21:03] hello! [21:03] Hello [21:03] Hi, is there any live media player with ubuntu or linux, with free browser and flash player? [21:03] sivel__: in /etc/hosts you can map a name to an IP, but it's not dynamic, you would have to manually update it as your Ip changes [21:03] anyway to install gnome 3.8 on ubuntu server 12.04? [21:03] gotcha . thanks yet again [21:03] trying to build a minimal ubuntu build without unity [21:04] @cr549 [21:04] sivel__: are you trying to access a box that has a dynamic ip? [21:05] yes, and it has a ddns assignment ? 1.1.1.1 (changes) > my.domain.com (stays the same) [21:05] Hi, is there any live media player with ubuntu or linux, with free browser and flash player? [21:05] how install eric 5 in ubuntu 13.10 [21:05] check out no-ip.com they do free dynamic dns and they have a linux client that you can run, and it will auto update the DNS http://www.noip.com/download?page=linux [21:05] gvo: didn't change anything I'm afraid [21:06] my english is so so [21:06] gvo, your having a good day! Question Why is it when i drag my mouse over an audio file I on longer hear it auditioned on my speakers? [21:06] akino: huh? [21:06] Machtin: It was a long shot. [21:06] please help [21:06] ariel__: sudo apt-get install eric [21:06] akino: please define "free browser". The Flash player is by definition non-free. [21:06] reisio why hun?? [21:06] yes [21:06] akino: don't understand what you're asking [21:06] install 4.5 [21:06] gvo: thanks for trying though! Maybe it'll be fixed at some point. [21:07] maujhsn: I don't think it's been good. I can't say. It works for me in 12.10. I don't have anything newer than that. [21:07] allright,ill check it out. my router aleady has a ddns assigned through asus though. [21:07] just a bit annoying, because I also don't seem to be able to watch a movie, pause it and play youtube e.g. [21:07] gvo, I'm using 12.04 [21:07] reisio te lo escribo en el idioma de los antiguos conquistadores Hola,¿ hay algún reproductor multimedia live ,con ubuntu o linux, que dispongan de navegador libre y flash player ? [21:08] sivel__: then you should be able to reach it via the domain name assigned to your account then, no matter what the IP address is. [21:08] gvo, Wow! I'd like to be able to use that feature again! [21:08] !gnash | akino [21:08] akino: Gnash is an open-source Flash replacement. It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ [21:08] maujhsn: audio preview was remove in gnome 3. [21:08] que al instalar con el ap-get me instala la version 4.5 [21:09] akino: there is also lightspark [21:09] y necesito la 5 [21:09] gvo, Removed...how come it was such a cool feature! [21:09] maujhsn: You could try to install gloobus [21:09] i can, but i was wondering how to "alias" that permanently so that i could see in the auth logs, for example blah connected from blah.com. something like that [21:09] auronandance wrong i not ask that [21:10] !tab | akino [21:10] akino: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [21:10] maujhsn: I have no idea why anyone does stupid things, for instance Unity why was that abortion allowed to live? [21:10] akino: what do you mean live? [21:10] sivel__: ah, ok. I'm not sure how to accomplish that. [21:10] gvo, Haha thats hot! [21:11] reisio an hardware like western digital live but not closed [21:11] did i i explain that somewhat correctly ? im lost on the wording for that. [21:11] anyway to install gnome 3.8 on ubuntu server 12.04? [21:11] maujhsn: I haven't tried gloobus but I'm told it behaves in a similar manner. [21:11] trying to build a minimal ubuntu build without unity [21:11] akino: sorry that doesn't make sense [21:11] !rockbox | akino [21:11] akino: rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started! [21:12] <[Gentoo]> mbff_: gnome is hardly minimal lol [21:12] gvo, Thanks, I'll pass! [21:12] <[Gentoo]> mbff_: ubuntu has a minimal install cd [21:12] well, i like it, but ubuntu comes with so much crap these days [21:12] !mini | mbff_ [21:12] mbff_: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [21:12] reisio western digital live dont have no sense for you ???? [21:13] akino: nope [21:13] reisio and apple tv ??? [21:13] ok thanks, although i've read that server install works better [21:13] <[Gentoo]> mbff_: you're better off with the minimal cd [21:14] gvo, The joys of distance learning! [21:14] akino: what about apple tv? [21:14] <[Gentoo]> loads of people seem to do it the server way which would work, but im not sure whats changed in the server install, the kernel might be slightly less responsive for desktop use [21:14] maujhsn: how true. Did that do anything for you? [21:14] akino: are you looking for a htpc? [21:15] i want a hardware like apple tv but very free and with ubuntu or linux , is there?? [21:15] AKINO: I think Roku Box runs linux? [21:16] akino: http://www.geekbuying.com/ look at the tv boxes there [21:16] gvo, I'll pass, because I use liveUSB, and disk space is the issue! [21:16] maujhsn: OK [21:16] akino: oh yes [21:16] buntufuntu roku bos support flash bplayer [21:16] ?? [21:16] akino: roku is a good solution for netflix, amazon, plex, pandora, ect. [21:16] <_space_> can anyone help me network a 7 box and a 13.10 htpc? [21:16] akino: they're called PVR [21:17] gvo, Take care my new friend...gotta go! [21:17] akino: look into mythtv, xbmc, freevo [21:17] maujhsn: Bye [21:17] akino: these are mostly android: http://tvbox.geekbuying.com/ [21:17] akino: roku doesn't do flash, and it's proprietary nonsense [21:18] a lot of newer TVs come with all this stuff, though [21:18] particularly ones marketed as 'smart' [21:18] particularly samsung tvs [21:18] ok but i search hardware very similar to apple tv but very free and with ubuntu or linux [21:18] akino: hardware doesn't matter, any small low power computer with the ports you require will suffice [21:19] apple tv hasnt browser for the net [21:19] akino: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_single-board_computers https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPi#Should_I_buy_a_Rasberry_Pi.3F [21:19] akino: that's a software limitation apple forces then, not a hardware issue [21:19] raspeberry hasnt a good hardware , her hardware is very and very poor [21:19] akino: have a look at that link i gave you. lots of android based devices there [21:20] hey I want to set a static ip for my computer. However, the only way to do this is by selecting "Manual" in network configuration. I have an existing working internet connection, how can I find out my current DNS server and search domain? [21:21] akino: if you look at the page, it isn't really about raspberry pi [21:21] akino: although a raspberry pi has all the hardware you would need for an apple tv alternative [21:22] how do i move an already started application to another desktop in unity? [21:22] exit [21:22] wc [21:22] Akino: Maybe you should try Ouya? [21:22] reisio: Ehhh, the AppleTV has a more powerful ARM in it, and they provide (their own) hardware codecs. The pi can do it, but it's under high load the entire time. [21:22] reisio what is the type of cpu that use rasperberrypi?? [21:23] 1 GHz ARM cortex-A8 [21:23] Sorry that's wrong. [21:23] akino: It's a very weak ARM processor, I forget the exact model. The cubieboard has a similar footprint, costs $60-$80, and uses a much more powerful & modern processor [21:23] dual core ??? [21:23] AKino: You should try A Raspberry Pi or a Ouya [21:23] cpu sual core?? [21:23] That's the cubieboard. [21:24] silidan: rightclick the titlebar and move to whatever workspace [21:24] ARMv6 r7 at 700mhz. [21:24] Had to ssh into mine. [21:24] ARM1176JZF-S (ARMv6k) 700 MHz [21:24] if ouya has a free browser with support for flash player , yes [21:24] auronandace: thanks [21:25] Akino: It runs Android so it may (: [21:25] I'm pretty sure Android supports flash, not for sure. [21:25] ouya use the version 11.1 of lash player??? [21:25] there is youtube app in android so, yes [21:26] !offtopic [21:26] #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! [21:26] akino: akino I've the dual core version of this and it's pretty sweet: http://www.geekbuying.com/item/IMITO-QX2-RK3188-Quad-Core-Google-Android-4-2-2-OS-Cortex-A9-1-6GHz-Mini-PC-TV-Box-2G-8G-BT-WIFI-Silvery-319120.html [21:26] Where is the repo for the HD4000 drivers? [21:26] BuntuFuntu: To some extent. It also depends on the distro of Android you're using, and the version tops out pretty quick. [21:27] ok but i want a hardware for using it with an old tv too [21:27] akino: Try doing a bit of googling then. [21:27] I need help, My amd drivers and fglrx got messed up when I upgraded from 13.04 to 13.10 [21:28] MissValeska: Sure you still have them? I thought that was one (of the many) things that was removed when you did a do-release-upgrade. [21:29] I used the amd driver .run thingy to generate the fglrx packages, And I installed them, But, It made my screen entirely black. EVen after running aticonfig --initial, So, I uninstalled them. And I cannot install it at all anymore [21:29] kyle i do it but only find western digital live , apple tv and izzape [21:29] kyle__: glad you agree with me === rory is now known as Rory [21:29] The following packages have unmet dependencies: [21:29] fglrx : Depends: xorg-video-abi-11 but it is not installable or [21:29] xorg-video-abi-12 but it is not installable or [21:29] xorg-video-abi-13 [21:29] Recommends: fglrx-amdcccle but it is not going to be installed [21:29] E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [21:29] MissValeska: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:29] IndexError: string index out of range (file "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/willie/coretasks.py", line 162, in track_modes) [21:30] Is there any workarounds for terminal tabs color? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/851207 [21:30] hey guys i ran sudo apt-get install netflix-desktop and the installed file does not respond how do i uninstall it [21:30] an izzape has free browser but no support of flash player [21:30] Ubuntu bug 851207 in Ubuntu "Gnome Terminal tabs are not black in 11.10" [Undecided,Confirmed] [21:30] Heh. MissValeska, try and apt-get purge the fglrx drivers. Then re-install them. [21:30] and izzape [21:30] Probably a dumb question, but is every crash report looked at? [21:30] okay [21:31] I figured out by running the amd driver .run thingy without generating packages that, It only supports an older kernel. [21:31] Ubuntu is so awesome. Confirmed in 2011-09-15 bug still wasn't fixed [21:31] JoshuaP, indeed, but some have more priority [21:31] dpkg: warning: while removing fglrx, directory '/usr/share/ati' not empty so not removed [21:31] Mvandruff: I think sudo remove netflix-desktop [21:31] wheatthin: such as? [21:31] Not sure though. [21:31] I still have the same problem when I try to install fglrx [21:31] i do pause because i see avatar now, avatar film was made with ubuntu os , true??? [21:32] thanks i will try [21:32] JoshuaP, lol would it matter as long as it's addressed at some time? [21:32] /ignore akino [21:32] Stupid keyboard. [21:32] that apparently was not it [21:33] MVANDruff: From the AskUbuntu forums: [21:33] kyle why you ignore me?? [21:33] wheatthin: I suppose not. Again it was probs a dumb question and I'm sorry. xD :P [21:33] MVanDruff: apt-get remove packagename will remove the binaries, but not the configuration or data files of the package packagename. It will also leave dependencies installed with it on installation time untouched. apt-get purge packagename, or apt-get remove --purge packagename will remove about everything regarding the package packagename, but not the dependencies installed with it on installation. Both commands are equivalent. P [21:33] MissValeska: You should be able to remove that directory. If you're being paraonoid, just rename it to ati.old. [21:33] so out of the blue my 13.10 install (toshiba laptop) fails to boot into x, doesn't start wifi, and from what i can tell the only problem it's reporting is that the system bus is nonexistent (/var/run/dbus/ is empty) [21:33] okay, Though, I did check inside, And it's just a log file [21:33] A log file and license [21:33] any suggestions? [21:35] blocky, were there a recent update & or custom graphics drivers installed? [21:38] If I have got this, how can I make another group that's chrooted in a different location? http://pastie.org/8478566 Whenever I do it at the moment, it completely stops access to SSH (to any user including root) [21:38] wheatthin: i don't believe any recent changes were made [21:40] wheatthin: it's my brother's system and he says all he was doing the last time it worked was browsing in firefox, listening to music and using openoffice [21:41] umm? Hello? [21:41] blocky, Are you using proprietary graphic drivers? [21:41] MissValeska: um hi [21:41] <_space_> can anyone help me network a 7 box and a 13.10 htpc? [21:42] Can you help me? kyle was helping me, But, He disappeared [21:42] <_space_> have tried multipe things to no avail [21:42] MissValeska: help you with what? [21:42] Ubuntu amd driver stuff, And other ubuntu things [21:42] wilee-nilee: no it's onboard graphics [21:43] blocky, There was a kernel upgrade as of late proprietary drivers wont follow that is why I ask. [21:43] blocky, try another kernel from the grub menu just to test. [21:43] MissValeska: WHat happens when you do the fix missing? [21:44] wilee-nilee: there's only the one kernel. the system doesn't even have windows on it.

[21:45] Okay, Basically [21:45] It updates the default sources [21:45] but all other sources fail [21:45] wilee-nilee: the grub menu has Ubuntu and two memtests, and if you select ubuntu you get the option of 3.11.0-8 or the same in recovery mode [21:45] Even though they ALL worked PERFECTLY before the upgrade [21:46] It says "failed to fetch, 404 not found" on them all [21:47] MissValeska, are the other sources ppa.launchpad.net and others? because when you upgrade, the PPAs and other repositories might not yet have been updated for the latest releases. [21:47] and may not have any packages (hence the 404s) [21:47] Yes, They are all ppa.launchpad.net [21:48] alguem [21:48] If I have got this, how can I make another group that's chrooted in a different location? http://pastie.org/8478566 Whenever I do it at the moment, it completely stops access to SSH (to any user including root) [21:48] blaster [21:48] <_space_> can anyone help me network a 7 box and a 13.10 htpc?

Can anyone assist? [22:12] how do i edit applets form [22:12] how do i edit applets from the top taskbar with gnome classic wm?

Should I be worried about for example Skype sending unauthorized info about me to MS, the way I would be worried on Android [22:15] heavyammo: Skype, AFAIK, is a closed source product, so you cannot know. [22:16] heavyammo: yes, but it has nothing to do with ubuntu [22:16] How do I uninstall Skype then [22:16] how did you install it? [22:16] I just installed it and just started it put it's still not in the foreground [22:16] skype is proprietary software and you shouldn't use it [22:16] following this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype [22:17] heavyammo, there are some unexcepted connections on skype it is tried to be reversed [22:17] heavyammo: sudo apt-get autoremove skype [22:18] It didn't even start.

[22:28] btw. if anyone needs to keep in touch with Skype contacts but don't want to install Skype or have unecessary VM's open - http://plus.im/ is where it's at. It's pretty good. [22:29] Semajnad: not yet anyway [22:29] Yes, It is a Radeon HD 7770 [22:29] And it worked before I restarted [22:29] I had three options before I restarted [22:29] P.S. can someone adress my q [22:29] I tried installing the offical amd drivers, And that messed everything up [22:29] ughhhh [22:30] MissValeska, please use nicks if you can, what ubuntu release? [22:30] 13.10 or saucy [22:30] quibble42: you're good. go ahead and install them [22:30] (y) [22:31] ty [22:32] MissValeska, Ah I believe the xswat ppa which might help is only up to 13.04. Here is if you have not had a look askubuntu links. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=Radeon+HD+7770 [22:32] Hello [22:32] wilee-nilee, thank you so much. that's what i've been looking for all day [22:32] The xswat ppa does not list a limit on the version of ubuntu [22:32] But, There is another problem [22:33] Every single third party source fails with a 404 error [22:33] does anyone have a wifif fix for marvell 88W8797? all fixes i found do not work at all!! it sees my wifi card but doesn't want to use it [22:33] is there a seen bot command in this channel_ [22:33] MissValeska, xswat has a support from and up to listing [22:33] wolfybox: have you tried Ndiswrapper? [22:34] Okay, but the thing is, Every single third party ppa I have throws a 404 error [22:34] asshat: yes [22:34] MissValeska, check if the 3rd parties are supporting 13.10, if not that us your 404. [22:34] most likely [22:34] wolfybox: what happened? just no luck at all or would it not install? [22:35] is* [22:35] But, ALL of them, Even xswat is doing this [22:35] asshat: i have it installed but it doesn't like my adapter, no luck at all [22:35] MissValeska, xswat does not support 13.10 its right on their page as far as support from and to. [22:35] oh [22:35] ughhh!! [22:36] hey gvo, I\m back [22:36] MissValeska, check all of them go to thier page and look. [22:36] *sigh* Is there any way I can just fix my graphics drivers? [22:36] wolfybox: so you installed it and gave it the files it needs from the windows driver? [22:37] asshat: yes [22:37] what does it mean if my 13.10 install just stays at the gnome footprint logo for 20 minutes [22:37] If I have got this, how can I make another group that's chrooted in a different location? http://pastie.org/8478566 Whenever I do it at the moment, it completely stops access to SSH (to any user including root) [22:38] MissValeska, You want a quick fix, we all do, however you are sort of flailing about without understanding what your doing and have done, I'm not sure the answer to that set of varibles. [22:38] wolfybox: is this on a surface pro? [22:38] asshat: yes [22:38] gvo I\ll be back tomorrow [22:38] okay [22:38] omg wtf, Even one of the ppa.launchpad.net standard saucy ppas failed with a 404 error [22:38] wolfybox: there is a fix out but it would require you to recompile the kernel [22:39] MissValeska, which one? [22:39] wolfybox: it's a known bug, sorry [22:39] wolfybox: good news is that they already know how and this should be upcoming kernel releases [22:39] wolfybox: here's a link to a support thread that may help you [22:40] wolfybox: forgot the link https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1165938 [22:40] Ubuntu bug 1165938 in linux (Ubuntu) "1286:2044 [Microsoft Surface Pro] Marvell 88W8797 wifi does not work" [Medium,Expired] === brontosaurusrex_ is now known as brontosaurusrex === makimac|afk is now known as makimac [22:41] MissValeska, Can you run sudo apt-get update and pastebin all the info [22:42] I sent you the issues in private chat [22:42] guys and possibly one girl, I am having a problem geeting a virtual machine installed iwth a "Permission Deeenied" to the file?

I've tried a bunch I found via google and none of them actually work and/or functionality seems to be missing or broken in 13.10 such as the "proprietary driver" manager, jockey. [23:00] stimoceiver, I would look in askubuntu using the search on your specific radeon [23:01] !ati | stimoceiver [23:01] stimoceiver: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [23:02] wheatthin, radeon are not nvidia [23:02] wilee-nilee, as you can see I said ati.. which radeon is. [23:02] ah I see that link is a general driver, my mistake [23:03] hi [23:04] I'm back [23:04] ANd I still have the same problem [23:05] wheatthin, that link refers me directly to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI . Option "2. Installation via the Ubuntu repositories" is broken as stated, at least on my combination of hardware. [23:05] stimoceiver, it should not be broken, unless it's hardware related. [23:05] It says "the easiest way to install binary drivers is to use the built in Hardware Drivers manager in ubuntu." However there is no further information about what exactly this is. [23:06] I have a question - cat /proc/cpuinfo shows my 8 processors running in 36bit instead of 64. I am running an i7 and KNOW it's 64bit. I installed 64bit kubuntu. Can you recommend any route to go to figure out why it's only running in "36-bit?" [23:06] hi, how do i tell my cpu is overheating ? [23:06] wheatthin: I assume it referrs to the application called Jockey. If so the doc should mention as such. [23:06] stimoceiver, sudo apt-get install fglx-current I believe [23:06] wheatthin: However, on my system jockey gives zero options for installing anything. All panes of Jockey are completely empty. [23:06] is there a good webgui for duplicity for headless servers running ubuntu 12.04 lts? [23:06] missvaleska, You have a messed up sources.list for example just one ppa here, Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/amuzen/ppa/ubuntu/dists/saucy/main/source/Sources 404 Not Found is this https://launchpad.net/~amuzen/+archive/ppa look at the choose your ubuntu version 13.10 is not listed. You need to go to each web page on the ppa's that are 404ing and check this. [23:07] stimoceiver, to find the driver, sudo apt-cache search fglrx [23:07] wheatthin: putatively, apt-get install fglrx-current seems to work in that the driver appears to be installed. However ubuntu doesnt use the aforesaid driver. [23:07] okay [23:07] missvaleska, Is this a upgraded ubuntu release? [23:07] Yes [23:07] no it doesn't, unless you've had added a different driver in xorg.conf [23:08] I understand some of the third party sources are bad, But the offical ones should work regardless [23:08] And I really just w3ant my graphics stuff fixed [23:08] missvaleska, You have ppa's that were supported from your last one but not in 13.10, this is something you have to always check on a upgrade. [23:08] missvaleska, is it ati/amd? [23:08] yes [23:08] Radeon HD 7770 [23:08] wheatthin: So the instructions would seem to be misleading, in that even after the driver is installed via the apt-get method, I am assuming one will still need to use at least some of the steps of "2.1 Installing via the command line." I say I'm assuming it because, though I'm no stranger to command line, I was hoping for a moire elegant GUI based solution. === vibowit is now known as vibout [23:09] ya some of the newest repos .. xorg/ender i think??... while give you bad drivers. i had to purge the repo and then uninstall and reinstall fglrx [23:09] joossee: xorg-edgers [23:09] wheatthin: Another tool that would be useful for me would be an XRandR GUI, if I had that I might not need the Radeon prop drivers [23:10] yes thats it bekks [23:10] stimoceiver, there is actually. [23:10] missvaleska, but my card is very old [23:10] stimoceiver, I believe it's lxrandr [23:10] okay? [23:10] I'm not talking about your card [23:11] missvaleska, You have so many bad lines in the sources.list and who knows what has been installed, all I can say this is a huge mess, and your reasoning is faulty in the sense of having all these errors that the statement " I understand some of the third party sources are bad, But the offical ones should work regardless" just is not valid. [23:11] ok well long story short: purge your repos and go back to defaults then reinstall fglrx. Just sayin === atticus_ is now known as TheytookRJobs [23:11] wheatthin: I'll try that, thanks, I tried the so-called kde xrandr tray app (forget the name, machine is in the other room). It appeared to do absolutely nothing, especicially it did not appear to load in my system tray (although due to overscan its hard to be 100% sure) [23:12] anybody know what could be causing D-Bus to suddenly stop working? I can't load X and I can't connect to wifi [23:12] Question, if I am trying to get just the amount of memory being used... I know I can cat /proc/memoinfo | grep MemFree but this provides an output with two columns. How would I go about just getting the number? [23:12] blocky, did you kill "rtkit"? [23:12] wheatthin: anyway, thanks for your help. im off to try some of these alternatives, hopefully without too much hair pulling (i should probably bite the bullet and go grab a different monitor at least for the setup phase, lol...) [23:13] TheytookRJobs: cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemFree | awk '{print $2} [23:13] oops need a second quote [23:13] joossee: not on purpose, should i? [23:13] hi guys, why ubuntu randomly give error windows? [23:13] ah, awk. Thanks I will study that command. Thank you so much blocky!

Apparently there is a bug that causes this: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object [23:31] at System.Web.Util.HttpEncoder.GetCustomEncoderFromConfig () [0x00000] in :0 , but the latest version has this fixed. How do you get Ubuntu package maintainers to push fixed versions to say, 12.04? [23:31] Don't fail me now Ubuntu support [23:32] joossee: Any luck? [23:33] rypervenche, no i tried deleting the file on disk and restarting again but identical error. [23:33] joossee: Let's go into a PM. [23:36] SamuraiDio, Was the iso bad with a sum check? [23:38] wilee-nilee, I don't have the iso anymore, just flashed on usb drive [23:39] how do you call this video issue, when 15% of left side video, is on the right [23:39] djzn: 'broke' [23:40] SamuraiDio, Ah, is this a unetbootin downloading schema? [23:41] reision: video broke? [23:41] wilee-nilee, sorry, what you mean? [23:41] reisio: video broke? [23:42] SamuraiDio, unetbootin has a download and load the usb method, it kis faulty for some is all. [23:42] is* === Granis` is now known as Granis [23:43] wilee-nilee, no. I just download the iso from ubuntu website, and wrote it to an usb drive with dd [23:44] SamuraiDio, Ah dd I would use a regular loader myself is all, dd apparently works but I never use it myself. [23:45] wilee-nilee, it boots, just fails on install... it could be a problem with my usb drive === cyril is now known as Guest5152 [23:46] i'll try again with donloaded iso, checking sums, and, if it fails, i'll try with another usb drive [23:46] Hmm.. the window spread feature is pretty nice [23:47] SamuraiDio, could be, sounds like your up on general possibilities, so carry on. ;) [23:48] wilee-nilee, can't it be uefi, huh!? === 18WAE2NDB is now known as AlexZion [23:48] SamuraiDio, This a uefi computer? [23:48] yes [23:48] wilee-nilee, an ultrabook, with hdd 500gb + ssd 32gb [23:49] SamuraiDio, Not sure to be honest, I have not had the pleasure/pain of messing with one. [23:49] Well, to whomever is following me: The problem can be resolved if you start a new solution and copy+paste your code back in. [23:50] wilee-nilee, in last chance I can try disabling it. but searching web, the suggestions was to disabled only for dual boot with legacy systems, like windows 7 or older [23:50] SamuraiDio, Here is a link I give the UEFI people besides the wiki. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 [23:53] hi, i try to debootstrap Ubuntu trusty in a user namespace where i am root, but i have the problem that the package makedev, which is installed in the second stage, tries to create devices which fails (since the root user inside the namespace is not allowed to create devices). [23:53] The package is installed although i pass --exclude=sysvinit,initscripts,makedev to debootstrap, does anyone have an idea how to prevent this package from installing? I do not need this package since i create all necessary devices between the first and second stage manually. [23:57] some good client p2p in linux [23:58] rtorrent [23:58] megadeath: for torrents? [23:58] hello everyone. for some reason in ubuntu12.04 alt tab does not show the 'terminator' console but cycles through all the others. I can however get to it using the touchpad right bottom corner as a windows switcher which shows all current windows [23:59] like frostwire too
