bergaI was under the impression valve would be releasing a sort of steambox along with the OS, which would essentially be a PC but with the simplicity of a console00:00
Corvaxiadarn. I didn't expect it to work but I still had a glimmer of hope.00:00
CorvaxiaBerga: They are developing a linux based OS/Steam application for prebuilt or custom built PC's.00:01
bergamaybe that's not what you where asking though, my state of mind is not 100%00:01
CorvaxiaEh, I appreciate the input regardless.00:01
bergaya that't what I meant, I guess you where talking about maybe replacing xbox OS with steam OS or something?00:01
Corvaxiayes00:02
k1lsteam is not gpoing to release boxes (besides the test boxes for beta testers). they just focus on the OS. but that is quite too much offtopic for a ubuntu support channel. better suits into #ubuntu-offtopic00:02
bergano idea then =)00:02
Safety_DanceXbone is going to run 3 os00:02
bergareally exceted for steam os though, i gotta say00:02

v3n0mDr0phi I'm trying to help a friend. almost a year back I gave him ubntu 12.04. I personally use 13.10 and very tempted to upgrade him. he asked me to help him out after he forgot his password. fixed that issue. but now I am facing a different problem. the old 12.04 unity is so slow when scroling it up and down. can some one show me a way to speed up its reaction speed?00:03
Safety_Dancev3n0mDr0p, what driver is loading with X00:04
pirretforgot his password :) sounds like he is not using his ubuntu box too often :)00:04
k1lfobelx: i dont think you want to use ubuntu 06.1000:04
Danatokll maybe he has a pre-historic computer00:05
fobelxk1l: i need to but what would the package be named in any case?00:05
v3n0mDr0pSafety_Dance, I don't know. I'm trying to look for it now00:05
Safety_Dancemaybe so but those repos are long gone he will have to compile i think00:05
k1lDanato: that is no excuse. that packages dont get any updates and the ssh package got safty issues you learn in primary school today00:06
Safety_Dance/var/log/Xorg.log check in there v300:06

DannermaxThis is driving me crazy. I have mounted a share at this path: mnt/nas but my problem is when i use Utorrent and i ad a torrent, it tells me: "Error former volume not mounted" but in another directory on the mount, it is able to delete snatches torrent files.. so why is it saying that? My smb.conf share is configured like this: http://pastebin.com/Ke0EzpHD00:07
DannermaxI write here, because i, maybe i have mounted the share the wrong way?00:08

v3n0mDr0pSafety_Dance, look I'm in the xorg.0.log and I am still confused where inthe log I am trying to find00:24
moengacwhen i reinstall won't i lose all my files?00:25
Safety_Dancev3n0mDr0p, just make that command outputs (II) LoadModule: "intel", not (EE) LoadModule: "intel"00:26
Safety_Dancemoengac, no i was just asking if you did that you should probably run the grub2 configuration...00:27
Safety_Dancethen grub may load windows i dunno00:27

Danato1668 users? O.o00:36
v3n0mDr0pSafety_Dance, last I checked 13.10's unity worked much faster. but theres got to be away to fix this on the long term version . would be a pain in the ass to reinstall all his programs and start allover agian when the next non lts release comes 6 to 8 months from now.00:37
Danatodo we have to reinstall programs when new versions come out?00:38
JinxySafety_Dance : That would work, but there's this nice command in ubuntu that I've forgotten that returns the os of the server in questions, the webserver installed, stuff like that00:38
k1lDanato: no00:38
JinxyJust some general diagnostic information00:38
Danatothats what i thought, because i dont remember losing anything00:38
Safety_Dancev3n0mDr0p, yes idk that i would recommend trying to update unity im not really sure maybe use different window manager00:39

cocontmihi all.. has facebook flash games (farmville 2) on ubuntu/linux worked better.. as faster without lag?00:41
Hexakittynvm, duh moment i just fixed it lol00:42
v3n0mDr0pv3n0mDr0p, huh. don't don't to fast scroll I guess. can easily get to the bottom icons moving the mouse torwards them. still want to know if sudo upgrading is a good idea or not00:43

moppycocontmi, adobe no longer updates flash player for linux - only google chrome has a current flash player as google have a deal with adobe00:44
Kramer_I recently made a backup of my personal files using deja dup on Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit. If I restore this on Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit, will I run into some major problems?00:44
daftykinsone way to find out...00:44
cocontmimoppy: i have chromium.. same difference00:45
moppyKramer_, data files *should* copy across fine but you know what they say about backups: an untested backup isn't a backup, all it means is you copied stome stuff00:45
moppycocontmi, not chromium, it must be chrome00:45
cocontmiok.. i will install chrome and find out.. thanks!00:45
moppycocontmi, chrome has 11.9 version of flash (same as windows), chromium has 11.200:45

Safety_Dancev3n0mDr0p, if you do try it i would make sure it is backed up and stuff00:48

Safety_Dances/could/probably will00:49
Dannermaxsudo blkid /dev/md127 gives type: "xfs" does this mean, that my raid has to be mounted in fstab as a filesystem xfs?00:50
v3n0mDr0pSafety_Dance, no kidding. anyway its fine now. and It is probably for the best to leave him with the long term version till 14.04 comes out. can't wait for that00:51
v3n0mDr0pSafety_Dance, 13.10 has a few annoying bugs00:51
edoceowhoever: remounting /tmp was the fix00:51
Safety_Dancev3n0mDr0p, yeah...  i am not at all sure how upgrades go these days and it is a risk maybe clone it first then make sure that works if you are willing to try an upgrade00:53
v3n0mDr0pSafety_Dance, my advice has always been clean install from iso files. backup everything.00:54

Safety_Dancev3n0mDr0p, yeah read the docs on upgrading it might work like a charm00:55
Safety_Danceat that point it is a lot of work anyway and the cloning i would do regardless... more time there...  might be better fresh ubuntu wipe00:56
v3n0mDr0pSafety_Dance, i will. but again this system will be fine as 12.04. thank you. I'm out for right now. thank you for the help00:56

ubottunatural: gufw (source: gui-ufw): graphical user interface for ufw. In component universe, is optional. Version 13.10.2-0ubuntu1 (saucy), package size 476 kB, installed size 1894 kB02:11
asshatmaxh76: works fine in 13.1002:11
pfifonatural: gufw is simply the graphical tool to ufw (the firewall thats already installed) You might like gufw if you need a gui or havent ever used ufw02:12
Danatonatural if youre not feeling safe enough using a linux distro the other OS' should make you paranoid02:12
naturali know it is optional, but so are working windows, haha, ok, but if i install it thorugh software center then just turn it on on the standard settings, does it help with online safety or does it just slow down my connection?02:12

xorgnakI've been a linux user for seven years, and I've never felt the need to run a personal firewall.  Work is one thing, but it's not necessary at all really.  Don't do anything stupid, but you'll probably be fine without installing one.02:14

xorgnaka .bin? wow. get ye an iso if you've never done this before.  let's not unnecessarily challenge ourselves.03:36

deadmundI was kicked but I'm back.  xorgnak I can't ask him to give it to me again for a long time.03:36

robbierobdurring boot i get a super slow response and then often its /dev/disk/by-uuid/5eb21af4    blah blah eror that says dose not exist03:36

nv_sam113101,  they turn off after 10 minutes of idle (this is an HTPC, screens are going into standby while watching video03:37

xorgnakdeadmund: is it just a regular old ubuntu image?  nothing special?03:37
robbierobi tried running boot helper and i got the response page ready for you..03:37

deadmundI'm on KDE fyi03:37
xorgnakrobbierob: does everything eventually mount and boot?03:38
robbierobno... some times i have to round about go into recover.. select from advance option in grub and boot that way.......boot fixer didnt help03:38
robbierobno definaetly not ok03:38
xorgnakdeadmund: is it for an emulator?  that's probably going to need to be loaded in some fashion03:39
robbierobif i leave it alone it wont boot but hang03:39
robbieroband go into shell mode with the above error03:39

dinosruleexcognac: read or read/write?05:46

kiwi_Jordan_U ... /dev/sda is not accepted08:39

cliffOr someone tell me how to verify the version of libusbmux that's installed on my machine?09:05
cliffperhaps give me the directory of where it would install. Or tell me how to find the directory?09:06
Peyamwhat are you trying to do cliff?09:07
cliffInstall libmobiledevice09:07
eschi I am having trouble adding the deadsnakes repository09:08
eschttp://pastebin.com/UmTy9ecv09:08
cliffbut then when I run ./configure it says I need to instal libusbmux09:08
Peyamso install it?09:08
DJonescliff: Does dpkg -s libusbmux give any info09:08
cliffDJones, thank you! It looks like it wasn't installed.09:10
DJones!find libusbmux09:10
ubottuFound: libusbmuxd-dev, libusbmuxd2, libusbmuxd2-dbg09:10
DJonescliff: Looks like you need one of the packages ubottu just listed, not sure which one is the right one though09:10
cliffIt looks like I have libusbmuxd-dev installed but I can't find the other two.  Would you know of a way to verify the version of libusbmuxd-dev?09:12
DJonescliff: Same command as before dpkg -s libusbmuxd-dev I would assume09:12
cliffJust as I thought, it's the incorrect version.09:13
cliff1.0.7-2ubuntu0.109:13
cliffI need 1.0.809:13
ObrienDaveesc, ppa installed ok for me09:14
cliffSo, I downloaded the package from ubuntus site and when I try to open it through software center, it errors out saying that it's dependency is not satisfiable.09:14
DJonescliff: What version of Ubuntu are you using, 13.10 has 1.0.8-1ubuntu109:14
cliff12.0409:15
escObrienDave: yeah, it must be my machine09:15
escworks everywhere for me too, except the box at work09:16

cliffDJones do you know if there is a way to install the package without using software center?09:17
ubuntu,sld09:17

TomTomgood morning, how to change the default size of tmpfs? its not part of the fstab but its mounted on system start09:39
[Gentoo]add to fstab09:40
Danatois there anything similar to "Internet Download Manager" or "Speedbit Download Accelerator" for linux??/09:40
[Gentoo]TomTom: add the size= option09:40
wilee-nileeDanato, I use apt-fast09:41
TomTom[Gentoo]: as i said, its not part of the fstab. there is some script during the startup which creates the tmpfs with a default size09:42
lecoeusDanato: try aria2c09:42
Danatowilee-nilee: what is that and how does it work?09:42
wilee-nileeDanato, http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/speed-up-apt-get-downloads-with-apt.html here is a web page.09:43
[Gentoo]TomTom: have you tried adding it to fstab though09:43
[Gentoo]the tmpfs location09:43
TomTom[Gentoo]: ] why i should when there is some "concept" of creating it automatically?09:43
[Gentoo]because you can adjust options then09:43
[Gentoo]like size parameter09:43
Danatothanks wilee-nilee and lecoeus09:44
[Gentoo]otherwise edit the script and adjust the mount options09:44
[Gentoo]as default is half RAM09:44

nitronewbieHow I can format low level09:47
nitronewbie?09:47
nitronewbieto my hdd09:47
Danatoso i can actually combine aria2 and apt-fast09:47
[Gentoo]nitronewbie: do you wnt to zero the drive?09:48
[Gentoo]dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/disk09:48
syriousYAY!!! I finally found the right IRC client to talk to you guys.... but I've already fixed my issue, lmao09:48
[Gentoo]syrious: what one09:48
nitronewbie[Gentoo]: yes because computer doesnt read the hdd09:49
syriousI'm trying to teach myself ubuntu, so I loaded 13.10 onto my hp 255 g1 laptop... then I couldn't get the wifi to work properly09:49
[Gentoo]nitronewbie: i doubt that will help then09:50
[Gentoo]nitronewbie: in what way doesnt it read the disk? doesnt see the drive?09:50
[Gentoo]or what09:50
nitronewbieI cannot open operating system it wrecked.09:50
nitronewbieYes09:50
nitronewbieIt see the driver09:51
nitronewbiebut doesnt reading or writing over it09:51
nitronewbiejust see09:51
MrQuistsyrious, what was up?09:51
[Gentoo]nitronewbie: just use fdisk or whatever to delete then make a new partition09:52
[Gentoo]and put a FS on it09:52
MrQuistSomething smells fishy....09:52
Danatosyrious: somehow unity doesnt work well with the network i use most of the time09:53
RWOverdijkAny libavcodec (ffmpeg) experts in?09:53
Danatowhen i switch to kde it works jst fine09:53
nitronewbiepartition is not avaible...09:53
[Gentoo]nitronewbie: what happenes when you do fdisk /dev/disk09:53
[Gentoo]or paste the output of fdisk -l09:54
nitronewbieI get I/O reading writing error...09:54
syriousnot entirely sure really. I'm a super noob to linux, so I couldn't even begin to tell you, but I found a posting by searching Google that told me to enter in terminal "sudo apt-get remove --purge bcmwl kernel-source" then enter "sudo modprobe brcmsmac" did a quick reboot, now all is working well09:54
[Gentoo]nitronewbie: if you want to try zeroing the drive do the command: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/disk09:55
nitronewbieI'm gonna do09:56
nitronewbieThis will be enough?09:56
nitronewbiedev/zero code?09:56
[Gentoo]maybe the disk is just bad09:56
nitronewbiedo I need anything else?09:56
Ben64io errors usually mean the drive is dying or dead09:56
[Gentoo]is it an old disk09:56
somanDoes some defragmentation on ssd on ubuntu exist?09:57
nitronewbieBen64 are you noob09:57
[Gentoo]soman: yes but it doesnt affect it09:57
somansorry fragmentation09:57
Ben64nitronewbie: watch the attitude here, guy09:57
nitronewbiedidn't see any hdd stuck in badsector?09:57
soman[Gentoo]: like a simple hdd?09:57
[Gentoo]soman: as it has no moving parts09:57
[Gentoo]so its got no head to physically move09:57
[Gentoo]which is why fragmentation affects hdds09:57
Ben64thats not accurate, fragmentation does affect ssds as well09:58
[Gentoo]well you shouldnt defrag an ssd09:58
Ben64you shouldn't need to defrag ext3/4 at all09:59
soman[Gentoo], Ben64, thanks10:00
[Gentoo]Ben64: in what way does fragmentation affect ssds>10:00
Onixsdefrag lol10:00

Ben64syrious: well thats not the correct way, its in the repositories10:09

ubottusyrious: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also  !Restricted and !Gnash10:09
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: evolution-data-server is a recommend of indicator-datetime ... it's probably something to do with the "add event" and calendar it display10:09

NuSueyanyone who has an idea with the following issue: "so I have this weird problem.. got my both 2 monitors working (using the open source drivers) .. but my HDMI output (TV) won't work .. weirdly.. it only shows the ubuntu logo..

remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: i suppose so, and with the mentioned switch it also wants to do so i am afraid...10:10
syriousok, lemme try that10:10
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: i dont want to have anything related to evolution on my  computer...10:11
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: actually i also dont want anything web-app related, and so futher and so on, because i am of the opinion, if i want to be spied on, i can go on and use windows, right...?10:11

remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: but you know there are so many things on ubuntu nowadays that are really statrting to anoy me big time... like ressource consumption for browsers...10:15
remoteCTRLsyrious:  install cheese and see if it already does10:15
syriouscheese?10:15
remoteCTRLaye10:15
=== kenny_18 is now known as kenny18
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: resource consumption for browsers are down to the browsers not ubuntu. again, you can always go with a different browser if you wish10:16
remoteCTRLsyrious: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/cheese10:16
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: its just the same with no matte what browser... opera, chromium, firebird... open like 35 tabs and FOUR GIGS of ram are prone to swapping ... -.-10:18
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: the problem is, that for some reason, that i really dont understand, the contents of ALL tabs reside in the memory at ALL times, dunno what that is good for...10:18
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: I don't have that experience? are they flash heavy pages? that would explain it.10:18
syriousremoteCTRL: ok I've got it installed and the webcam shows up in the preferences, but I'm not getting any picture10:19
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: amongst others, yes, pages like youtube, open like 15 youtube tabs, and youve had it with four gigs10:19
remoteCTRLsyrious: then its not working10:19
remoteCTRLif cheese dont work nothing works10:19
syriousso I won't be able to use my webcam at all then?10:20
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: then the issue is with flash not the browser i suspect.10:20
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: but i also use farcebook like a sort of blog, i have aboos on quite a few sites, and when i just open them in new tabs to read them later, i'D say 15 is about the limit too...10:20
remoteCTRLsyrious: not until you fix what is keeping it from working... have you already been helped around? if so, tell me what you did10:21
ak5hi, how do I find the right mirror for my location? I am in china10:21
syriousI haven't done anything yet10:21
syriousjust started on this issue10:21
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: it is quite indiscriminate, it also doesnt respond well to javascript and others...10:21
remoteCTRLsarious, its an usb cam i suppose?10:21
syriousno not usb, integrated10:22
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: the huge design error is, to load the contents of all tabs at the same time.10:22
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: facebook pages are full of flash instances. and is quite poorly optimised10:22
remoteCTRLlike for ex, when you restart the browser and reload the previous contents you all of a sudden hear like 15 youtube vids runnign simultaneously10:23
remoteCTRLwhat the heck would that be good for??10:23
remoteCTRLwhat the heck do i need a vid starting before i skip to the tab??10:23
Ub0ntuhelo =)10:23
remoteCTRLand therefore, what the heck do i need the whole vid loaded to the RAM thus using up 4 gigs of ram just for a few browser tabs?10:24
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: I just had a look there, facebook timeline uses about 200MB ram to render in chrome. That's nothing to do with ubuntu. that would be down to the flash player and the design of the facebook page itself10:24
lecoeusremoteCTRL: use elinks10:24
lecoeuselinks is the best10:24
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: yeah i know but youre missing the point dude10:24
remoteCTRLlecoeus: for browser?10:24
lecoeusyep10:25
remoteCTRLi currently prefer chromium because it has one huge advantage over all the others: you can kill processes for tabs, so when i start it i open a console and keep killing processes, until its finally up and running, and when i really want to see the tab i reload it...10:25
remoteCTRLkinda cumbersome, right...?10:25
remoteCTRLcos otherwise i go fetch a coffe until its done loading and swapping...10:26
remoteCTRLthats simply a massive design error10:26
remoteCTRLits seriousl a bad bbad misconception10:26
syriousremoteCTRL: did you catch me saying it was an integrated webcam?10:26
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: No, if your having issues with ram, switch to a lightweight DE (i'm just using openbox + lxpanel here, not even a full DE). But as regards the browser/flash memory usage, don't blame it on ubuntu when it has nothing to do with ubuntu10:27
remoteCTRLsyrious: what does sudo lsusb | grep cam return and sudo lspci | grep cam?10:27
hitsujiTMOsyrious: all integraded webcams use a usb interface10:27
syriousgimme a sec and I'll check10:27
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: again: youre missing the point10:28
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: i am not blaming the fact that flash is a ressource-hungry biatch on ubuntu10:28
remoteCTRLwhat i am blaming on ubuntu is the nonsense, that it opens all browser tabs at the same time10:28
remoteCTRLand i also dont blame that on the broswer10:28
Ben64remoteCTRL: watch the language here, and this channel really really is not for ranting, please don't10:29
remoteCTRLbecause it does it for all browsers which is NOT happening in windows10:29
remoteCTRLBen64: @ language, fair enuff, the rest, yeah who else am i gonna tell? im on topic dude, i have an ISSUE here, ok?10:29
hitsujiTMOremoteCTRL: that behavior you can turn off in the browser settings. (I have never seen that by default btw so you might have turned it on)10:30
Ben64you're not talking about the issue really, you're ranting, and its a browser issue anyway10:30
syriousremoteCTRL it's just returning me back to a blank command line10:30
remoteCTRLhitsujiTMO: i sureley never did that...10:30
remoteCTRLsyrious: apparently your webcam is not turned on, do you have a switch for it anywhere on the chassis?10:30
syriousnot that I can find10:31
remoteCTRLBen64: would you kindly explain to me then, wha 4 different browsers behave just the samte, which 4 different browseres do the opposite way in windows?10:31
hitsujiTMOsyrious: can you pastebin the ouput of lsusb10:31
syriousummm how do I do that?10:31
Ben64remoteCTRL: sounds like a question for the browser people10:32
remoteCTRLBen64: all 64 brands of them, really?10:32
lecoeusremoteCTRL: is the problem reloading your previous tabs at startup?10:32
Ben64syrious: open a terminal, type "lsusb" hit enter, copy and paste that into pastebin.com and give us the resulting url10:32
lecoeusbecause you should be able to disable that easily10:32
syriousremoteCTRL ok, gimme a sec10:32
iptablesyrious, try just lsusb, then look for something that looks like your webcam. it will not necessarily say CAM in the name and in lower case :/10:32
cfhowlettremoteCTRL, reloading previous tabs is a browser setting.  turn it off and no re-opening10:33
remoteCTRLlecoeus: *bitingmylipps* i'd seriously be grateful for a hint how to... ;)10:33
lecoeusfor firefox, go to preferences, general10:33

jimgrothHey guys. Running Lubuntu. Trying to figure out how to change the look of windows to something dark.10:33
remoteCTRLcfhowlett: no it isnt: i am not talking about not reloading the previous tabs in the sense of not even showing them, but not reloading in the sense of yes showing them, but reloading them WHEN CLICKED AT10:34
lecoeusremoteCTRL: i don't think that exists yet10:34
lecoeusperhaps you can save your session10:34
Ben64jimgroth: you should be able to change the theme in a settings/preferences menu somewhere, i don't really use lubuntu so i'm not sure what it'd be called10:34
remoteCTRLBen64: and i say you re wrong there, i bet you 2 punds of dollars!10:34
lecoeusthen reload it when you want it10:34

BluesKajChillax86_. once you riun boot-repair make sure you run sudo update-grub in ubuntu15:13

BluesKajChillax86_. sorry i don't much about that . whether secure boot is necessary or not15:17
BluesKajknow15:17
Chillax86_Secure boot is not necessary but when you need to install Ubuntu on 12 machines of which the person would like secure boot to stay enabled it becomes a problem lol15:20
jhutchins_wkChillax86_: The whole point of secureboot is to prevent you  from loading something like Ubuntu, so I don't think there's any scheduled plan for Ubuntu to fix it.  It's not something Ubuntu does.15:20
Chillax86_jhutchins_wk I'm affraid you are wrong secure boot just means that all boot binaries must be signed by a CA included in the UEFI signature database of which most hardware vendors have only included Microsoft's Key so that is why the linux foundation and most linux distros have paid $99 to microsoft to get there binaries signed.15:24

BluesKajjsc__. rememeber this command too , it will come in handy , sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart16:22
jsc__and cyncist, the problem was that the ethernet didn16:22

cynicistjsc__: that's bizarre, not sure how your system would even know what to do if it couldn't detect an ethernet controller at all16:23

devnulledhey all, I'm trying to use one of the Ubuntu cloud images in Vagrant and it seems like the template uses a disk size that is way too small to be useful.  Does anyone know where would I go to report this/talk to someone about the template?17:33
flkive read all that already17:33
flkmy problem is as soon as i boot-repair grub is my default boot loader17:33

flkas soon as i pick windows boot loader, the system boots into windows without giving me any other options17:35
flksry, im too excited. i will control myself17:35
devnulledhitsujiTMO:  I'll give that a shot.  It is a Ubuntu created template so I think I'd need to talk to someone from Ubuntu about it, but doesn't hurt to try there.  Thanks.17:35
wheatthinflk, sounds like you have the wrong disk booting. Is this a dualboot on the same hard drive?17:36
flkyes17:36
hitsujiTMOdevnulled: where did you get the template exactly and how big is the disk size?17:36
wheatthinflk, by checking fdisk   'sudo fdisk -l' you can see which partition is marked to boot.17:37
devnulledhitsujiTMO: I got the image/template from http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/ (I can give the full URL to the image if helpful) and the disk size is only 4 GB.17:37
flkthis is odd. fdisk -l shows only sda117:38
nightdemon666flk, are you dual booting windows and ubuntu?17:38
flkyes nightdemon17:38
wheatthinnightdemon666, windows 817:38
nightdemon666and you "should" have ubuntu installed onto partition sda2 but fdisk only show you sda1 (which is windows)?17:39
devnulledhitsujiTMO: I'm not sure if its a typo or what.  Disk images for Vagrant tend to be 40 GB.  I believe the images only allocate space as needed, so it shouldn't be a problem to increase it to something usable.17:39
flkthis is what fdisk got me: i need some help with ubuntu 13.10 windows 8 dual boot17:39
hitsujiTMOdevnulled: i presume the intention is that you can expand the partition to you needs17:39

nightdemon666flk, did you partition your internal drive (/dev/sda) so that you would have /dev/sda217:40
wheatthinflk, you'll need to use parted, since it's GPT17:40

ubottuflk, please see my private message17:43
devnulledhitsujiTMO: Exactly, it seems easy to contact sales, but impossible to find who builds the images there, etc.  :)  I could see how the 4 GB could be intentional, but at the same time I don't think it allocates the disk space upfront, so something more reasonable seems appropriate.17:43
nightdemon666just useflk, based on what you information you have given me, it sounds liek grub is NOT installed to /dev/sda1, hence why you are not seeing the GRUB to give additional boot options.17:44

nightdemon666yes17:52
flkcan i somehow leave the windows boot loader and add ubuntu to it?17:52
nightdemon666but it wont hurt windows, it just replaces the boot loader with grub17:52

nightdemon666flk, in the future, if you need to remove ubuntu, and want to windows boot loader back, then you must use windows recovery disk to recover windows boot loader.17:54

eyfourDrManhattan: Have you tried removing linux-headers-generic as well as the linux-image-generic package? This worked for me. Make sure you're able to boot from your virtual image before doing this, though.18:31
DrManhattanive tried, no luck18:31
Ziberdaftykins: The GUI there is capable of individual workspaces per monitor as I'm trying to achieve.18:31
nightdemon666Richhh, just make sure GRUB gets installed to the drive ubuntu will be booting off of... example; you want to install to 1st hdd (/dev/sda) and you are booting from 2nd hdd to do that (/dev/sdb) make sure GRUB gets installed on /dev/sda. Just verify that before saying "ok" to installing the OS :)18:31

queretarostarnix just select a torrent application that you have installed, one such as Transmission18:39
zykotick9starnix: or, just save the file.  then open it after with you torrent client.18:40
eyfourDrManhattan: how about ditching the linux-virtual package, and then installing linux-image-virtual and linux-headers-virtual? Does update-grub list them now? I struggled with a very similar issue myself, and there was something about switching between the aforementioned installation methods that solved it in my case.18:40

[twisti]the annoying thing is that there is a script in /etc/init.d that is clearly meant to start dropbox with an optional user/group parameter, but i guess nautilus ignores it ? im unsure whats going on exactly behind the scenes19:34
lmatjhutchins_wk: All in all, I would like vnc server to just serve one monitor (or a region of the screen or whatever).19:34

ubottuThe 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).

Dudytzok .. I have been installed ubuntu saucy (using minimal cd) ... I install ubuntu-gnome-desktop and gdm ... but when I run gnome-session in the x forwarding, I see the unity desktop, how to change to gnome?20:13
reisioactually what I _really_ prefer is people who get upset at reading IRC messages to either learn how to use /ignore or to leave :p20:13

olf-folkscan anyone look at this pcap file and tell me if they were trying to connect or if they were activly doing something on my server?20:31
Piciolf-folks: Probably just trying to login. Thats what happens when you have a server on the internet.  Check your auth.log and perhaps install fail2ban or a similar package.20:31
olf-folkswow, apparently yeah there has been about 8000 attempts to break in to my root acct via ssh20:36
olf-folksall diffrent ips lol20:37
=== GingerGeek is now known as GingerGeek[Away]
reisioolf-folks: disabling the ability to ssh in as root isn't the worst idea20:37
reisioother than that, people are going to try to break into your server, always20:37
reisioyou can force them to at least go through the effort of finding another IP to try with, though20:37
reisiowith things like fail2ban20:38
reisiowon't stop it, but makes it less noisy20:38
olf-folksreisio: i have a 22 char alpha numric root password hahaha20:40
reisioolf-folks: so you have a bad root password20:41
reisioolf-folks: http://xkcd.com/936/20:41
Piciolf-folks: Then at least disable root login from ssh.20:41
jhutchins_wkolf-folks: If you run sshd on 22 you get brute force attacks.  Law of the internet.20:41
reisioyou get them regardless20:42
FlashSoulIn any case you should refrain from giving such information about your password.20:42
reisiono that was smart20:42
reisionow he knows he chose his password badly20:42
jhutchins_wkolf-folks: The only effective thing left to do is to run it on an obscure port, and they're catching on to that too.20:43
jhutchins_wkolf-folks: fail2ban and throttling worked until they started doing low-speed distributed attacks.  They come from a lot of different IPs and aren't repeated often enough to get banned.20:44
olf-folksyeah the log showed them changeing the port every attempt20:45
olf-folksi would estimate aronund 10k failed attempts to login20:46
wilee-nileewhat is so important that you need a server is my question20:46
soczolhi, my server was in the middle of a 'resize2fs' call when it suddenly became unreachable. SSHing accepts username and password, but nothing happens after that. I can connect to it through IPMI but when I log I only get the "last login from <x>" header, and nothing else; could this be caused by the resize2fs operation? and if so, I guess that rebooting at this time would be a bad idea?20:47
Nach0zsoczol: if this happened to me I'd leave it alone for a while. I get the feeling it's chugging away and getting hung up on disk IO.20:47
Nach0zalso I really hope you did that inside tmux/screen/byobu/something.20:48

soczolNach0z: yeah.. I really should have, but I noticed way too late that it was taking so long, and aborting it at that point was not an option (if possible at all) :(20:49
Nach0zyeah >___>20:51

Siper_Ah darnit, tripped on my adapter21:18
wilee-nileeSiper_, The external install is just using the manual install from the live cd/usb we can help you do it, but just wondering if that is really your bets option is all.21:19

moppy(Someone was saying 32 bit windows was limited to 4GB, that's not actually true: it only applies to desktop versions of windows)21:26
wilee-nileeSiper, Yes you said that, how is that causing you to want a external, it will not make better use or run better in realtion to the computer as a 64 bit or a external21:26
bekksmoppy: Its not true at all, since using PAE works on Desktop versions too.21:27
FlashSoulIf you activate it only. It's not on by default. I believe it's nly available for vista+ too.21:28
moppybekks, windows desktop OS has PAE yes, but they programmed in an artifical memory cap (probably to make people upgrade). Win servers dont have that cap)21:28
bekksFlashSoul: Yes.21:28

PaRaD0xxok, i'll check that out and let you know how it goes ;)22:05
CormacMcFionnSamSagaZ: No, Xubuntu is a min resorces version of ubuntu, Ubuntu is the full tilt, and debian is what is the root distro of thoes two each behave differently22:05
PaRaD0xxthanks22:05
daftykinsPaRaD0xx: oh and if it still causes trouble, try recreating a share without spaces in the name :)22:06
SamSagaZok.22:06
CormacMcFionnSamSagaZ: Think Debian, Ubuntu then tweaks and changes Debian, Xubuntu takes Ubuntu, yanks out Unity, puts on XFCE22:07

PhoenixzFor some reason, (as far as I could see, no reason) my PHP went from fine to segfaults only... I was working, out of the blue, boom.. I traced the problem to either the PDO module, or libapache-mod-php5.. The latter, I'm not sure because I first noticed the segfaults on CLI. I tried reboot, reinstall, but when I tried to purge the packages, I got lots of errors on libapache-mod-php5. Status right now is that I cannot apt-get purge libapache2-mod-22:18
Phoenixzphp5 php5, it errors with "ERROR: Module php5 does not exist!" and then it dies. Anybody here know what I could do besides a complete reinstall which is not really an option for me at this (kinda critical, i have people waiting for my work which I cannot finish now) moment?22:18
imancAlso when it hangs the hard drive indicator shows no activity22:19
dougldaftykins, worked just as you read... exits clean now - thanks again :)22:19

apb1963what are people here using for groupware?  The problem is not a shortage, but an overabundance to choose from.  Anyone using anything like zimbra, citadel, egroupware or others?23:05
apb1963For ubuntu 12.04 of course23:06
apb1963<taps keyboard>  is this thing on?23:07
CormacMcFionndepends on what you want to do with groupware23:07
apb1963CormacMcFionn: Everything!23:08
CormacMcFionnThen I use Ubuntu :P23:08
apb1963CormacMcFionn: chat, email, videoconferencing, data sharing, etc. etc.  all web based.  Open source, free.23:09
apb1963citadel seems to have most of it... but I didn't see videoconferencing23:10
CormacMcFionngnome-xchat for chat, Gmail for emale, Hangouts for video confranceing, samba for data shareing localy, ubuntu one for across internet :)23:10
apb1963It needs to all be integrated into one web based interface.23:10
CormacMcFionnGoogle then :)23:10
apb1963And google products aren't opensource23:10
CormacMcFionnWell if you want free as in no money all under one roof, google is the least evil23:11
itanshiwell you can use squirrel mail and thunderbird23:11
apb1963Those aren't groupware as far as i know23:12
