| minimec | rodney77: ok. so try to 'sudo modprobe bttv' in a terminal, and if you are successful, add it to /etc/modules. It might be, that you have to add some driver options in /etc/modprobe.d/somefileyoucreate | 00:00 |

| shagelito | greetings ! | 00:01 |
| solars | hey, can anyone tell me where in the kernel I can find this driver: http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v3.12/drivers/misc/lis3lv02d/Kconfig to enable it? | 00:02 |
| MonkeyDust | kali_eskrima http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/03/disable-network-manager-in-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot/ <-- 11.10 hope it's still useful | 00:02 |
| rodney77 | minimec, i ran the command and there was no output. it just took me to a new line with a new command prompt. does this mean it was successful? | 00:02 |
| user2 | i am getting the erro4 "can not find GRLD on all devices" i have tried uninstall wubildr and coping the the wubildr.* files from ubuntu/winboot to my root c drive but i am still getting this issue could some please point me in the right direction or to some documantion thank you | 00:03 |
| kali_eskrima | wilee-nilee oh hi, yes hold on a sec,. the user hitsujiTMO actualy told me how to do it, and i saved it on my pc. i actualy saved it with parts missing and i cant do it. he said something about creating some folder with specific names and i saved the copy of it will provide the links... thanks | 00:03 |
| whisky_ | Hey, is it down http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/xorg-edgers/raring/main/base/nvidia-331 ? Or do I have a problem? | 00:03 |
| kali_eskrima | MonkeyDust thank you will look into it | 00:03 |
| MonkeyDust | user2 wubi is a windows application, it's not a real installation | 00:03 |
| minimec | rodney77: That's normal. 'ls /dev/video*' If you were successful, you should have an additional video device. /dev/video0 is often the webcam | 00:04 |

| === hholtmann_ is now known as hholtmann | ||
| MonkeyDust | user2 no, wubi is obsolote, guess it's no longer maintained | 00:05 |
| rodney77 | minimec, it doesn't look like /dev/video exists at all | 00:05 |
| MonkeyDust | obsolete* | 00:05 |
| kali_eskrima | wilee-nilee here you go http://paste.ubuntu.com/6423849/ | 00:05 |
| user2 | MonkeyDust: i tried booting the dvd from an external drive, it gets as far as grub, but after i choose install or live cd i just get a black screen. i think it has something to do with UEFI verson one that is build in to the macbook pro firmware, it fails on usb boot as well | 00:06 |
| user2 | MonkeyDust: if i can just get any kind of terminal running i should be able to fix the issue | 00:06 |
| whisky_ | Hey, is it down http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/xorg-edgers/raring/main/base/nvidia-331 ? Or do I have a problem? | 00:06 |
| pero | q | 00:07 |
| kali_eskrima | wilee-nilee here are the two links i was given.... http://paste.ubuntu.com/6392441/ | 00:07 |
| MonkeyDust | user2 is that a mac? | 00:07 |
| minimec | so. the card is not recognized. Try to edit 'sudo gedit /etc/default/bootlogd' once, and change 'BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=' to yes. then reboot. You will then get a '/var/log/boot' file with all the messages during boot. | 00:07 |
| pero | exit | 00:07 |
| minimec | rodney77: see above. | 00:07 |
| kali_eskrima | wilee-nille and this one http://paste.ubuntu.com/6392446/ | 00:07 |
| user2 | MonkeyDust: yes macbook pro 2008 edition, its a laptop | 00:08 |
| MonkeyDust | user2 wubi on a mac, that's beyond me, maybe someone else can help better | 00:08 |
| minimec | rodney77: You can then check that boot file, or even 'pastebinit /var/log/boot' (sudo apt-get install pasteinit). Pasteinit gives you a link, that you can post here. We can then check the log file. | 00:09 |
| user2 | user2: no its wubi on windows 8.1, the hardware is a mac book pro though | 00:09 |
| wilee-nilee | user2, wubi wont run in W8 | 00:09 |
| user2 | wilee-nilee: really, what makes you say that? | 00:09 |
| MonkeyDust | user2 that's even more beyond me :) | 00:09 |
| wilee-nilee | user2, Hehe because it's a known fact. | 00:10 |
| user2 | wilee-nilee: i installed it and got ubuntu working fine yesterday using wubi on 8.1 | 00:10 |
| kali_eskrima | wille-nilee please keep in mind that im new to linux-ubuntu and i dont know much of things around, apart from the desktop interface. i dont know how to use that good the terminal, or crating executable folders. and so on.... im good with the computers and learning fast, just to the new things im a bit lost. and still learning.. thanks for patience | 00:10 |
| wilee-nilee | user2, Then you have a magical touch. | 00:10 |
| MonkeyDust | !mac | user2 | 00:11 |
| ubottu | user2: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages | 00:11 |
| user2 | wilee-nilee: not really, very little has changed with the bootcode from vista,7 and 8. just a few extra feature added which can all be disabled through UEFI menu, non of which and enabled on the mac book pro anyway | 00:11 |
| wilee-nilee | kali_eskrima, All I wanted to do was confirm you were actually using the ubuntu release of 12.04, your nick gas kali in it, and many come on not thinking twice on trying to get help on other OS based on ubuntu that are not supported. | 00:12 |
| wilee-nilee | has* | 00:12 |
| skraito | hi all | 00:12 |
| daftykins | haaaai | 00:12 |
| daftykins | welcome. | 00:12 |
| user2 | wilee-nilee: could you please share any information you have on the reason behind wubi not working on 8.1 | 00:12 |
| wilee-nilee | user2, The boot code is not the whole picture, and I don't follow wubi in general, I support people who use it that are forced to though. | 00:13 |
| kali_eskrima | oh i see hahah actually has nothing to do with the kali os.. i learned that linux is using kali as os, which is an traditional philippino martial art and its a hindu goddess.... kali goddess. google it :P | 00:13 |
| MonkeyDust | user2 http://askubuntu.com/questions/168608/how-to-boot-wubi-installed-ubuntu-within-windows-8 | 00:13 |
| user2 | MonkeyDust: thank dude, i will have a read through the links now | 00:14 |
| apb1963 | I'm getting a "warbling" on my softphone (sflphone) that seems to be related to either kmix and/or pulseaudio - with the latter being more likely. Any ideas? ubuntu 12.04 | 00:14 |
| kali_eskrima | MonkeyDust that help that you gave me will actually help me which im using 12.04 LTE ? because that is for the 11.10 ?? | 00:14 |
| wilee-nilee | user2, I did not say W8.1 but W8, this was towards the start of the actual W8 release I saw this, maybe wubi has been modified I don't know or really care to be honest. | 00:14 |
| MonkeyDust | user2 tip: wubi is not popular here | 00:15 |
| kali_eskrima | wille-nilee i didnt use ur name to click on you...... anyway i said oh i see hahah actually has nothing to do with the kali os.. i learned that linux is using kali as os, which is an traditional philippino martial art and its a hindu goddess.... kali goddess. google it :P | 00:15 |
| wilee-nilee | lol | 00:15 |
| user2 | MonkeyDust: lol ye i can see why, i would much prefer to boot from a dvd/usb but i just get a blank screen after the grub loader on a dvd/usb boot would you happen to know why? | 00:15 |
| MonkeyDust | user2 try !nomodeset | 00:16 |
| wilee-nilee | kali_eskrima, I have a long history of studying comparative myth, however this is a OS channel. | 00:16 |
| kali_eskrima | wilee-nilee please see above the three (3) links i gave you | 00:16 |
| kali_eskrima | wilee-nilee what that means? sorry is that im deceiving with my nickname? | 00:17 |
| solars | hey, my cpu freq somehow seems to have a lower limit of 1500mhz - although the cpu could go down to 800, but powersave always ends up at 1500 ... can anyone tell me what is limiting this? | 00:20 |

| wilee-nilee | You* | 01:01 |

| reisio | wrong tool | 01:03 |
| wilee-nilee | yeyeman, Not that easy, and dragging does not work. | 01:03 |
| reisio | yeyeman: get teh downthemall firefox extension | 01:03 |
| yeyeman | reisio, I don't want to save ALL images, I just want to save lots of them quickly | 01:04 |

| wilee-nilee | Rayhai, Do we guess or are you gonna tell us? | 01:18 |
| wilee-nilee | I guess graphic issues | 01:18 |
| Rayhai | I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 with Cinnamon 2.0. I just tried installing a nvidia driver (v331.20), but it broke something in my computer, and now my desktop enviroment is completely crashed. | 01:18 |
| wilee-nilee | bingo | 01:19 |
| uncle_ben | Fudus, what's weird is that it worked correctly every time with my intel integrated graphics, but when i put in an nvidia card and switched over, xscreensaver used the root window "sometimes" | 01:19 |
| Fudus | apt-get remove nvidia*, reboot | 01:19 |
| wilee-nilee | Rayhai, this the cinnamon ppa or the ubuntu repos? | 01:19 |
| Fudus | ah Nvidia, that would be it ;) | 01:19 |
| Rayhai | I think it's the cinnamon ppa. Not entirely sure. Completely new to Linux in general. | 01:20 |
| wilee-nilee | Rayhai, I believe cinnamon is a bit rough around the edges in 13.10. | 01:20 |
| Fudus | Rayhai: apt-get remove nvidia* then reboot, it'll go back to os | 01:20 |
| Fudus | then you can try the different types in software-properties | 01:20 |
| Rayhai | I'll go try removing Nvidia. Although for some reason, I can only run the TTY terminal :/ | 01:20 |
| uncle_ben | Fudus, i know...everyone pisses on nvidia and linux support...but how come steam is using nvidia for their steambox if it's so linux-unfriendly? do they know something we don't? | 01:20 |

| shagelit1 | anyone can confirm that i wont be able to get GNUparted threw apt-get ? | 01:26 |
| Fudus | Here's a newer version of xscreensaver, maybe that'll fix it: https://launchpad.net/~tormodvolden/+archive/ppa/+build/5127350 | 01:27 |

| ubottu | Package/file GNUparted does not exist in saucy | 01:27 |
| Nach0z | um | 01:27 |
| wilee-nilee | shagelit1, Ubuntu Release? | 01:27 |
| Nach0z | wilee-nilee: try gparted? | 01:27 |
| wilee-nilee | Nach0z, Try, I always use it. ;) | 01:27 |
| shagelit1 | well... That's my first attempt to run debian. Even if i experience some big troubles with the GRub2, can you tell me what means !find ? | 01:27 |
| shagelit1 | Im on Debain ! | 01:28 |
| Nach0z | wilee-nilee: no I meant I thought you were trying to find the name of gparted or something | 01:28 |
| wilee-nilee | shagelit1, Try #debian | 01:28 |
| uncle_ben | Fudus, thanks | 01:28 |
| shagelit1 | thanks ! | 01:28 |
| Rayhai | Hey, if I want to play a game through steam, how to I make sure my graphics card is enabled? | 01:28 |
| Fudus | http://packages.debian.org/stable/gparted | 01:28 |
| Fudus | it exists | 01:28 |
| Fudus | so apt-get install gparted :P | 01:29 |
| wilee-nilee | Nach0z, The other user was asking about GNUparted, never heard of it just wondering. | 01:29 |
| Fudus | r software-properties-gtk additional drivers, pick one | 01:30 |
| bekks | "GNU parted" is actually "parted" on Ubuntu and Debian. | 01:30 |
| Nach0z | ah huh | 01:30 |
| wilee-nilee | That's what I suspected, part of the voodoo partitioner group. ;) | 01:31 |
| Nach0z | yeah I figured you either meant gparted or just parted. people call it GNU parted for some reason | 01:31 |
| adamu | Hello | 01:31 |
| shagelit1 | Well thank you (sincerly) for your help. But i checked threw apt-cache search. I found that Gparted. That means its on my debian, right ? | 01:31 |
| Rayhai | Wait, huh? @Fudus - Do I just put "r software-properties-gtk additional drivers" in my terminal? | 01:32 |
| uncle_ben | Rayhai, i'm not sure if this applies to your situation, but if you want to try the nvidia driver again...append the boot line with "nomodeset" in grub and see what happens | 01:32 |
| bekks | Nach0z: It is "GNU parted", since it is the GNU implementation of a PARtition EDitor :) Its official name is "GNU parted". | 01:32 |
| wilee-nilee | shagelit1, Probably, but this is ubuntu support is all. | 01:32 |
| Fudus | i mean, go to software-properties-gtk click additional drivers | 01:32 |
| shagelit1 | okok thks again ! | 01:32 |
| Fudus | pick one of those | 01:32 |
| shagelit1 | see ya | 01:32 |
| Rayhai | At additional drivers, nothing comes up. | 01:33 |
| wilee-nilee | been awhile since I ran debian, so boring no updates, never breaks | 01:33 |

| Ben64 | Rayhai: you need bumblebee or something like it | 01:41 |
| Rayhai | I'm downloading now | 01:41 |
| Fudus | Its the official Nvidia website? | 01:41 |
| Rayhai | Bumblebee destroyed my system. | 01:41 |

| Ben64 | Rayhai: thats not bumblebee, read it first | 01:44 |

| Anon42038 | Hello. | 02:12 |
| wafflejock | Rayhai: if you installed using apt-get then you can just use remove or purge where you had install previously | 02:12 |
| wafflejock | Rayhai: if you installed with a .sh file then you would use the uninstall flag with that script to run the uninstallation | 02:13 |
| wafflejock | Rayhai: sudo apt-get purge nvidia-319 nvidia-settings-319 nvidia-prime | 02:13 |
| wafflejock | Rayhai: remove deletes the binraries and such but leaves behind configuration files, purge should get rid of everything from those packages | 02:14 |

Most of the time I can barely stay on for a couple of minutes. However, this exact card works perfectly fine on the Windows computers in the house, and my mom and sister have identical cards that never have problems on Windows (but also do on my | 02:14 |

Sometimes it won't connect again until I unplug it and plug it back in, and sometimes when I do that, it stops recognizing it and I have to reboot. Also sometimes it will only reconnect when I delete the router password in "edit connections" and re-add it. This is the output of it from iwconfig: http:// | 02:14 |

| wafflejock | Rayhai: will show you packages installed using debian package manager which is what apt is using | 02:26 |
| wafflejock | Rayhai: if you don't see it there then apt isn't going to be able to uninstall it, in that case you need to find the .sh file you used to install to properly uninstall | 02:26 |
| Rayhai | I just tried sudo apt-get remove nvidia* | 02:27 |

| Anon42038 | Well I'm glad America's got a carrier group out there to help the affected areas. | 02:30 |
| funky | if i mirror server i can skip it? | 02:30 |
| funky | It doesn't contain 'real' files but runtime system information (e.g. system memory, devices mounted, hardware configuration, etc). For this reason it can be regarded as a control and information centre for the kernel | 02:31 |
| funky | or server restore wont work without proc? | 02:31 |
| sary | wilee-nilee: , right am getting confused with codename . | 02:31 |
| wilee-nilee | it happens. ;) | 02:31 |
| wafflejock | funky: you maybe want to look into rsync and think more selectively about what you backup | 02:31 |
| wafflejock | funky: alternatively check out dd and copy whole disk or parititon to an image | 02:31 |

| funky | I simply wonder if I skip /proc can I restore server without it, yes or no | 02:34 |
| Rayhai | Okay. Back. | 02:34 |
| funky | if its like windows /temp then its irrelevant | 02:34 |
| wafflejock | funky: sorry don't have experience with it but dd does block by block copy of an entire partitition or disk to a file and back, clonezilla is a nice bootable iso that handles setting up network shares and the like before running dd and helps a lot | 02:34 |
| Jordan_U | funky: Yes, you can (and should) skip /dev/, /proc/, and /sys/ when backing up. | 02:34 |
| wafflejock | funky: believe it will not matter | 02:34 |
| funky | cool | 02:34 |
| funky | Jordan whats in /dev and /sys? | 02:35 |
| Rayhai | So far, I've tried the official Nvidia driver, nvidia optimus, and bumblebee. None have worked for my GeForce GT630M | 02:35 |

| sary | its th open source driver | 02:39 |
| funky | when kernel boots it makes new /proc and /dev right? :D | 02:39 |
| wafflejock | funky: I believe that's how it works, the exact details are beyond me | 02:39 |
| wafflejock | funky: fstab tells it where to mount the devices but I suppose the kernel or something earlier on is setting up /dev and the like | 02:40 |
| bekks | funky: Some file in /dev are persistent. | 02:40 |
| funky | bekks so better keep dev? | 02:40 |
| funky | and just dont back up /proc? | 02:40 |
| bekks | funky: you dont need to backup /dev, /proc, /sys | 02:41 |
| funky | ok | 02:41 |
| sary | it's beter to moit out backports then! | 02:41 |

| Rayhai | Once I install it and reboot, how to I run a game off of steam with it? | 02:58 |
| reisio | yottabit: should still work | 02:58 |

| yottabit | aye | 02:58 |
| reisio | yottabit: basically if the live OS (the install media) boots and functions, it works | 02:58 |
| yottabit | that doesn't look good | 02:58 |
| I7_ | i think ubuntu 13.10 has alot of bug | 02:59 |
| reisio | doner: you don't have to reinstall, just install gnome-shell | 02:59 |
| Rayhai | bekks: just press play anf it will run? | 02:59 |
| I7_ | always showing some sort of error | 02:59 |
| I7_ | i never has problem with 11.10 | 02:59 |
| Anon42038 | Yottabi?: Boot from Flash drive or whatever you have Ubuntu burned onto | 02:59 |
| bekks | Rayhai: I never played steam games - why they do not depend on non-optimus nvidia hardware. | 02:59 |
| Anon42038 | If it works through the flash drive it'll work on the HDD | 02:59 |
| sawyer_ | reisio, Because it more stable and it was my first distro around two years ago, so I like it more. | 03:00 |
| sawyer_ | reisio, It started my hatred for microsoft | 03:00 |

| bekks | !grub2 > andre | 03:01 |
| ubottu | andre, please see my private message | 03:01 |
| Rayhai | bekks, well thank you for all your help :D. I'll see how this works oout once I finish installing it. | 03:01 |
| I7_ | i think ubuntu 11.10 is the most stable | 03:02 |
| andre | ubottu, how I send a private message to you? | 03:02 |
| ubottu | andre: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:02 |
| Anon42038 | Andre. Does your computer have UEFI? | 03:02 |
| bekks | I7_: 11.10 isnt supported anymore. | 03:02 |
| doner | reisio: Ok... and just for the question, if i need to remove ubuntu from my computer for a time and reinstall it latter.Should I backup these gpg and ssh files? | 03:02 |
| reisio | doner: backup whatever you care about | 03:02 |
| andre | Anon42038. Yes, but it is disabled in the BIOS | 03:02 |
| reisio | doner: all the important stuff should really be in /home/ | 03:02 |
| Rayhai | I wish things like UEFI and SecureBoot would just diappear. | 03:02 |
| I7_ | bekks, 13.10 has too much bugs | 03:02 |
| I7_ | 13.10 always give error even in vmware | 03:02 |
| I7_ | i never has prolblem in 11.10 or 12.04 | 03:03 |
| Anon42038 | Andre: So your computer is running in Legacy mode? | 03:03 |
| reisio | Rayhai: all in good time | 03:03 |
| Anon42038 | Rayhai: It's microsoft's way of keeping a stranglehold on the OEM'S. | 03:03 |
| bekks | I7_: That still doesnt make 11.10 being non-end-of-life. | 03:03 |
| andre | Anon42038. How can I now if my computer is running in Legacy mode? | 03:03 |
| andre | Anon42038. How can I know if my computer is running in Legacy mode? | 03:03 |
| Rayhai | Honestly, I feel like it's just making users angry. It's the reason why I'm boycotting all things microsoft. | 03:03 |
| reisio | what's legacy mode | 03:03 |
| I7_ | bekks, they should test and fix bugs before releasing the release | 03:04 |
| Anon42038 | Legacy mode for UEFI | 03:04 |

| sawyer_ | reisio, Yeah, but uefi doesnt like linux | 03:05 |
| sawyer_ | bekks, Well what ever | 03:06 |
| Anon42038 | UEFI Hates linux. | 03:06 |
| Anon42038 | And Linux really hates UEFI. | 03:06 |
| reisio | oh some computers have uefi and bios? | 03:06 |
| reisio | and call bios legacy? | 03:06 |
| bekks | Anon42038: thats just not true. | 03:06 |
| wilee-nilee | Anon42038, Your comments are not helpful, and just opinions. | 03:07 |
| I7_ | can anyone tell me what are the ubuntu out there.... example, kubuntu, xubuntu....etc | 03:07 |
| sawyer_ | I freshly installed ubuntu 12.04 and my mic wont work, I tried changing things in pavu control but I cant get it to work, but it worked in 13.10 | 03:07 |
| bekks | reisio: There are computers that have BIOS, some have BIOS and UEFI, and some have UEFI only. | 03:07 |
| bekks | reisio: secure/legacy are UEFI modes. | 03:07 |
| Anon42038 | Ugh what I'm saying is Linux can run on UEFI nicely but some linux users in the community hate UEFI for their own reasons. o.o | 03:07 |
| xangua | I7_: they are ubuntu | 03:08 |
| I7_ | i want to try one of them | 03:08 |
| I7_ | trying to select the cool one :) | 03:08 |
| xangua | so do | 03:08 |
| bekks | !derivatives | I7_ | 03:08 |

| reisio | bekks: what's legacy? | 03:08 |
| bekks | gna. | 03:08 |
| bekks | reisio: an UEFI mode allowing you to boot non-trusted installations. Like non-Windows8. | 03:09 |
| reisio | ah | 03:09 |
| reisio | legacy, that's some good propaganda :) | 03:09 |

| Phoenixz | For 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- | 03:16 |
| Phoenixz | php5 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? | 03:16 |
| Phoenixz | The only possibly relevant thing I can think of is that a few weeks ago I enabled 32 bit packages (I have 64 bit install), which I remember was required for something I needed to install back then.. I don't know if its relevant, but I also do not recall how to disable this.. Does anybody know how to disable 32 bit repo? | 03:16 |
| Phoenixz | So anybody who might know? | 03:17 |
| sawyer_ | I freshly installed ubuntu 12.04 and my mic wont work, I tried changing things in pavu control but I cant get it to work, but it worked in 13.10 | 03:18 |
| wilee-nilee | !patience | sawyer_ | 03:19 |
| ubottu | sawyer_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ | 03:19 |
| sawyer_ | wille-nilee, No offence, but is it so hard to just say have patience? | 03:20 |
| sawyer_ | wilee-nilee, Sorry, but it bugs me all the people with the bot on this channel | 03:21 |
| Phoenixz | sawyer_: bots are here to help moderate, don't take offence | 03:22 |
| Phoenixz | sawyer_: that, and from memory, I had a similar problem on my toshiba laptop, 12.04 no mike, 13.10 mike | 03:22 |
| Phoenixz | Solution for me was nothing really, but the update to 13.10 | 03:23 |
| reisio | probably just the kernel, then | 03:23 |
| reisio | but obviously it could be the alsa config | 03:23 |
| reisio | hard to get excited about helping you downgrade | 03:23 |
| Phoenixz | sawyer_: What reisio says... Why 12.04, why not stick with what works and is new, specially if the new worked, and the old.. well, doesnt? | 03:24 |
| reisio | I already asked that question | 03:27 |
| d0nger | i need some help please. everytime i unsuntall a program, and re install, it remembers the settings i had before i removed it. I use janito to clean up after uninstall so why does it do this? | 03:27 |
| reisio | didn't get a very good reason, IMO :) | 03:27 |
| Phoenixz | reisio: Any particular reason why ALSA is still used btw? I might be mistaken, but my kubuntu has like20 audio stacks on top of eachother, all messing with what the previous one did. I have alsa, gstreamer, phonon and pulse IIRC.. Why not just use? | 03:27 |
| Phoenixz | Why not just use one? | 03:27 |
| wilee-nilee | d0nger, use purge not remove | 03:27 |
| reisio | d0nger: your settings are frequently kept in ~/ | 03:27 |
| reisio | d0nger: so you don't lose them | 03:27 |
| Phoenixz | d0nger: apt-get purge package? | 03:27 |
| reisio | Phoenixz: alsa is virtually the only choice | 03:28 |
| reisio | Phoenixz: the rest work on top of it | 03:28 |
| Phoenixz | d0nger: insteald of apt-get remove.. that is, if you use the command line | 03:28 |
| Phoenixz | reisio: Well, yeah, got that part but.. Why in all these years has nobody really worked on one good working audio stack that everybody can use? | 03:28 |
| wilee-nilee | d0nger, App configs are in ~/.configs as well at leat some | 03:28 |
| wilee-nilee | least* | 03:28 |
| d0nger | where do i find that folder wilee-nilee | 03:29 |
| reisio | Phoenixz: because it's already good :) | 03:29 |
| wilee-nilee | d0nger, open home and do ctrl-h to unhide .configs | 03:29 |
| reisio | if it weren't good enough, it would be replaced, that's how open source works | 03:30 |
| Phoenixz | reisio: uurrr.. :) Audio, in the last 10 years, way up to at least 12.10 (I just never used 13.04 because it crashed all over the place) always has been the problem child.. always "suddenly stopped working without explanation", and then I had to mess around on the command line in config files, and alsamixer on command line.. Plus, everybody builds on top of alsa, with other intermediary levels.. | 03:31 |
| d0nger | wilee-nilee, i dont see kdenlive in the .config folder | 03:31 |
| d0nger | i used purge command though | 03:31 |
| reisio | Phoenixz: hasn't been my experience | 03:31 |
| reisio | but I don't use Ubuntu | 03:31 |
| kostkon | Phoenixz, nowadays it's pulseaudio on top of alsa. gstreamer and phonon are multimedia frameworks | 03:31 |
| wilee-nilee | d0nger, Some are there some are not. | 03:31 |
| reisio | nor have I ever had problems with flash or 64-bit | 03:31 |
| reisio | these are largely imaginary problems, IMO | 03:31 |
| Phoenixz | kostkon: yeah, but phonon (from what I have seen here) uses gstreamer with some mix of pulse audio, and that all on top of ALSA, please correct me if I am very wrong.. It all seems very... patched together.. not just one strong "this is it and it works" if you know what I mean. | 03:32 |
| reisio | Phoenixz: all you actually need is alsa | 03:32 |
| reisio | the rest is the fault of your particular DE and/or distro | 03:33 |
| kostkon | Phoenixz, gst and phonon can talk directly to pulse that's true. pulse is the sound server | 03:33 |
| reisio | or whatever top-level software it is that deps it in | 03:33 |
| Phoenixz | reisio: flash has always been horrible, but then again, thats adobe.. Cant wait till thats gone :) | 03:33 |
| wilee-nilee | d0nger, This a ppa install? | 03:33 |
| reisio | Phoenixz: horrible yes | 03:33 |
| reisio | just not more horrible than on Windows | 03:33 |
| d0nger | kdenlive from software center | 03:34 |
| Phoenixz | reisio: true, true | 03:34 |
| d0nger | still didn't work. immissing some options it had when i first installed it, now it's missing options | 03:35 |
| sawyer_ | Phoenixz, Because 12.04 works better, exept for this one thing | 03:35 |
| wilee-nilee | !find kdenlive | 03:36 |
| ubottu | Found: kdenlive, kdenlive-data, kdenlive-dbg | 03:36 |
| Phoenixz | d0nger: missing options does not really sound like a config issue..? | 03:36 |
| wilee-nilee | !info kdenlive | 03:36 |
| ubottu | kdenlive (source: kdenlive): non-linear video editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.6-2ubuntu1 (saucy), package size 1317 kB, installed size 4677 kB | 03:36 |
| wilee-nilee | just checking if in the repos the web gives conflicting info for kdenlive | 03:36 |
| sawyer_ | So does some one actually know how to fix it? | 03:36 |

| Guest64573 | .. | 04:42 |
| CapitalSigma | prasannapete: have you checked out raspbian? | 04:42 |
| prasannapete | i have used raspbian, but i wanted to know if ubuntu can be installed | 04:42 |
| sawyer_ | prasannapete, No. | 04:43 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: probably check out alsamixer and arecord to check your Mic out | 04:43 |
| sawyer_ | wafflejock, What? arecord? | 04:43 |
| wafflejock | prasannapete: believe it would not be a good thing to run full ubuntu on a raspi | 04:43 |
| fishduck | I compiled blender, but all I get (when I start it) is a smaller screen resolution (but no blender). Any experiences? ^^ :3 | 04:43 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: http://linux.die.net/man/1/arecord | 04:43 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2011304 ? (scroll down to the bottom for their solution) | 04:44 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: There's some good stuff on it here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture | 04:45 |
| sawyer_ | wafflejock, Ubuntu, not arch | 04:45 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: yeah gotcha same sound subsystem though | 04:45 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: I used this for diagnosing stuff with my own mic using Kubuntu, ultimately turned out it was a hardware failure | 04:46 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: is it a USB mic? or "regular" | 04:46 |
| sawyer_ | wafflejock, Its internal, but it works in 13.10 and windows. | 04:46 |
| CapitalSigma | arch wiki often has some great distro-neutral advice on how to get things working | 04:47 |
| sawyer_ | wafflejock, so its not hardware failure | 04:47 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: yeah gotcha, in alsamixer you'll see channels as muted with MM under their volume control, if you see internal mic with mm in there you hit M to unmute after selecting that channel with the arrows, if it's not muted in there arecord should work | 04:48 |
| sawyer_ | I think IM getting some where, I increased the mic gain in alsa mixer and now there is a small amount of orange in pulse auudio | 04:48 |
| sawyer_ | wafflejock, Where would I see mm? I dont see it | 04:49 |
| wafflejock | just under the "volume slider" it either has 00 or mm | 04:49 |
| wafflejock | if you hit m it should toggle | 04:49 |
| sawyer_ | I dont see anything changing when I hit m, or "volume slider" | 04:50 |
| wafflejock | weird definitely does it here, just muted my music :) | 04:51 |
| wafflejock | you're in alsamixer ? | 04:51 |
| sawyer_ | Yes | 04:51 |
| sawyer_ | and sound settings, and pulse audio, but my mic in pulse now has a small orange bar indicating something is making it through, but its not much, and weather or not I actually make noise doesnt move it | 04:52 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: http://snag.gy/UICd8.jpg <- here's what mine looks like with the MM and 00 I was talking about | 04:53 |
| sawyer_ | and now under recording there is, "GNOME Volume Control Dialog: Peak detect From Built in audio Analog" | 04:53 |
| sawyer_ | wafflejock, Ok nothing is muted | 04:54 |
| sawyer_ | two things at 00 though | 04:54 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: believe that testing ALSA itself using arecord from the arch instructions is the best bet because I'm pretty sure Pulse and/or Jack work on top of ALSA so if that isn't working I wouldn't expect the others to, I'm a programmer but not a Linux expert though still learning the ropes | 04:54 |
| wafflejock | yea 00 is okay think it just means "open" or on | 04:54 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: Are you talking right at the microphone? When I had an internal one it couldn't detect any sound from me unless I talked *right* into it. | 04:55 |
| wafflejock | F6 to see other cards too if you don't see your Mic on the first one | 04:55 |
| fishduck | compiled darkplaces... but when I run it, it just... does nothing but changes my screen resolution. Any ideas? | 04:55 |
| sawyer_ | wafflejock My sound card is Default - | 04:55 |
| sawyer_ | Charcoalwing, doesnt make a difference | 04:55 |
| wafflejock | fishduck: is darkplaces the new blender you were talking about up there? don't have experience compiling it, is there a problem with the one in the repo? or just looking for the latest cycles updates? | 04:56 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: What does it sound like when you use sound recorder? | 04:56 |
| sawyer_ | charcoalwing White noise | 04:57 |
| fishduck | wafflejock: I don't have the slightest idea ^^ | 04:57 |
| wafflejock | fishduck: if you just want blender you don't need to build it from source it's available in the main repos | 04:57 |
| wafflejock | fishduck: sudo apt-get install blender | 04:57 |
| fishduck | wafflejock: I know, but I want to learn how to do it. | 04:58 |
| wafflejock | fishduck: fair enough, sorry though don't have experience building that one myself from scratch | 04:58 |

| sawyer_ | charcoalwing, What do I do now? | 05:01 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: http://www.humans-enabled.com/2011/07/help-when-your-microphone-is-not.html This page has a video about sound settings that could make it not work? | 05:01 |
| sawyer_ | charcoalwing, OK I will try that | 05:02 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: yeah so for me it turned out I had one damaged external Mic which I didn't realize ever happened, I reinstalled my whole OS after lots of debugging then eventually found out my Mic was just broken (hooking up the headphone end and talking into them worked, face-palm), my USB mic wasn't working in Hangouts because it was hooked up through a USB hub... so two random problems not related directly to your problem, but I feel | 05:02 |
| wafflejock | your pain, ultimately audacity helped me verify everything was working because you can easily select the mic inputs in there to test | 05:02 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: http://www.youtube.com/all_comments?v=f2HYyRgue_8 I don't think the suggestion in the comments here was on any of the other links, it doesn't say anywhere if it worked for the person but you could still try. | 05:03 |
| Charcoalwing | *. It | 05:03 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: You could also try posting on the Ubuntu forums about the issue? | 05:06 |
| sawyer_ | Charcoalwing, I Dont like doing that because I have been trying to get it to work for days, and I am tired of waiting, I dont want to wait for posts. | 05:06 |
| DatWolf | dood | 05:08 |
| DatWolf | im legit blaq as fuq | 05:08 |
| pretend_genius | Hello | 05:10 |
| sawyer_ | charcoalwing, That video did work, most of those settings arent around in precise. | 05:11 |
| context | i burnt three dvd's tonight. none of them were readable :-/ i feel doomed | 05:12 |
| wafflejock | context: check your MD5 Checksum lower your burner speed | 05:13 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1369142&highlight=microphone Here's another thread. | 05:13 |
| wafflejock | context: also check that they aren't readable by the computer that burned them | 05:13 |
| wafflejock | pretend_genius: hi | 05:14 |
| context | well i just converted an iso to image and put on usb stick | 05:14 |
| context | and still cant boot it | 05:14 |
| wafflejock | context: I've had lots of things stop a USB boot from working so usually stick to discs when I can | 05:14 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer_: Even if it's already been days, maybe a forum post could end up saving more days? It would also give you a place to collect the the things you've tried already and what settings and microphone you have, so it'd be easier to show others. | 05:15 |
| context | ive honestly never had good luck with usb sticks bootable, which is totally retarded | 05:15 |
| wafflejock | sawyer_: Charcoalwing makes all good points, if you can't find a post for your particular hardware that makes sense to tag onto making a new one doesn't hurt | 05:15 |
| wafflejock | context: yeah well I think USB hardware tends to have more variables involved than a CD or DVD where you just have to deal with the different layers but otherwise mostly standardized, USB drives are very variable | 05:16 |
| wafflejock | context: plus depends on the BIOS being at least somewhat modern | 05:17 |
| sawyer_ | charcoalwing, Ok this one seems promising, its a lot like what I have going on. | 05:17 |
| context | only a year or two old. i swear ive done it before. just havent touched this box in like 9 months | 05:17 |
| sawyer_ | I have to restart now I will be right back. | 05:18 |
| context | burning again but slower speed. | 05:18 |
| context | external dvd burner on my mb air | 05:18 |
| context | im just complaining to complain. i <3 ubuntu | 05:18 |
| context | its almost 12am and im a many beers in ;) | 05:18 |
| wafflejock | :) no worries some days computers just don't want to cooperate | 05:19 |

| pretend_genius | wb | 05:20 |
| context | i just want to play with this crap before my new server comes in the mail | 05:20 |

| wheatthin | sorry, don't want to be rude, but I think that may be offtopic | 05:27 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1386425 This thread talks about some other things in alsa mixer. It's about a person that has sound but it's really low, but it also has a part about unmuting volume. | 05:28 |
| rhin0 | to get better sound use pavucontrol | 05:28 |
| wheatthin | if it's really low, he might have to turn up the pcm or master channels | 05:28 |
| rhin0 | sudo apt-get install pavucontrol | 05:28 |
| wafflejock | pretend_genius: if you mean can you run an installed OS as a virtualbox machine I believe the answer is no | 05:28 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: http://askubuntu.com/questions/131857/alsamixer-howto-disable-auto-mute-mode This one's almost the same but has a couple more alsamixer options. | 05:30 |
| pretend_genius | I mean booting a 2nd operating system in a first as a virtual OS | 05:31 |
| wafflejock | pretend_genius: no you can't do that | 05:31 |
| wafflejock | pretend_genius: I've checked it out some | 05:31 |
| wafflejock | pretend_genius: the problem is basically the OS is configured based on the hardware and the virtual hardware is different | 05:31 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, I have mic and internal mic, what is mic? | 05:31 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1395094 Also since pulse audio/pavucontrol wasn't working for you and neither is alsa, according to this thread another sound thing called OSS could work. | 05:32 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, Maybe thats the problem, it seems to want to use mic, but I think it should be internal mic. | 05:32 |
| wafflejock | pretend_genius: you're better off having shared separate partition that both can read/write for media and stuff you want to share between OSes | 05:32 |
| aarcane | if I install 14.04 daily build from the ISO, will I then automatically be running 14.04 final if I stay up to date using aptitude udpate; aptitude upgrade regularly? | 05:32 |
| topper4125 | aarcane, should work.. but I wound't recommend it on a system you depend on... | 05:33 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, So try OSS? | 05:33 |
| context | yeah im starting to hate this external dvd burner. it even verified and said success, i put it back in and it says 'cant read' | 05:33 |
| context | aarcane: 'should' yes? like topper4125 said, if you care, dont do it | 05:33 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer yeah, may as well try it. Also huh, I don't know where the extra microphone would come from. Can you turn it off in the normal sound settings? There should be a dropdown for different microphones. | 05:34 |
| aarcane | topper4125, context: That's what I was afraid of. I was hoping to get a head start on migrating to 14.04, but since it's highly recommended against... | 05:34 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, I think one of the tutorials I tried had me remove my pulse, so I cant anymore... | 05:34 |
| context | a head start? 14.04 isnt gonna be THAT much different from 13.10.. and anything you REALLY care about being that up to date should be in a ppa | 05:36 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, I cant install oss for some reason, the deb just says :Cannot install 'gcc:i386' | 05:36 |
| topper4125 | aarcane, on systems you depend on, always stay with supported releases (Personally I only run LTS to LTS) | 05:36 |
| aarcane | topper4125, I'm on 12.04 now, and it's gotten a bit long in the tooth. I was hoping, since I had time to do upgrades today... but since it's advised against | 05:37 |
| fishduck | how do I get rid of the annoying scrollbar in unity? | 05:37 |
| context | depending on env, LTS or at most actual release... desktop/workstation, id still do release, and PPA the stuff i want to be 'edge' | 05:37 |
| fishduck | the auto hiding-wtf-whatever-it-is scrollbar and get a normal one? | 05:37 |
| fishduck | also, whos idea was it to remove the scrollbar and put that weird thing there? | 05:37 |
| fishduck | it's a terrible idea. If the devs are reading this..... ffs, just add a normal scrollbar | 05:38 |
| sawyer | fishduck, What wierd thing? Can you link to a picture? | 05:38 |
| context | fishduck: im sure it was a redhead | 05:38 |
| topper4125 | still running 12.04.3 on this machine... but most of my Software is installed via PPA rather than any repositories... so the software fresh, the OS is stable... | 05:38 |
| fishduck | sawyer: http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/how-to-get-classic-scrollbar-back-in-ubuntu-11-04-tip/ can't be removed like that in my current ubuntu version | 05:38 |
| fishduck | context: probably | 05:38 |
| sawyer | fishduck, Why does it matter? | 05:39 |
| context | damn gingers | 05:39 |
| pretend_genius | test | 05:39 |
| fishduck | sawyer: because (1) Can't scroll to the end of a file in one swipe (2) takes 2 damned second until you actually get a grip of it, if at all | 05:40 |
| sawyer | fishduck, Well I dont know on that one. | 05:40 |
| topper4125 | got rid of that 'option' a while back myself... | 05:40 |
| fishduck | also, you'll have to fiddle with your cursor to get it | 05:40 |
| fishduck | sawyer: it sucks. | 05:40 |
| fishduck | can it be removed? | 05:41 |
| xangua | fishduck: you just pasted a link that explained how to... | 05:41 |
| fishduck | Sometimes you want to skim trough a large document really quick, and need to be able to ... ffs, nvm.. any ideas of how to get rid of it? | 05:42 |
| fishduck | a scrollbar isn't suppose to disappear | 05:42 |
| fishduck | it gives you an overview too | 05:42 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: "apt-get install gcc.i386"? | 05:42 |
| sawyer | E: Unable to locate package gcc.i386 | 05:42 |
| sawyer | E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'gcc.i386' | 05:42 |
| sawyer | Need to log out and back in be right back | 05:43 |
| sawyer | im back | 05:44 |
| DatWolf | so swaggets | 05:45 |
| fishduck | fixed. | 05:45 |
| fishduck | I bug-fixed it with apt-get purge overlay-scrollbar . Will send the devs a patch later | 05:45 |
| sawyer | Why does it work in 13.10 but not 12.04, thats the part that gets me. | 05:45 |
| fishduck | xangua: I also clearly wrote that it was irrelevant for my version | 05:46 |
| sawyer | Gotta log out and in again brb | 05:46 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound Scroll down to "Installing Prerequisite Packages" and try the commands there? | 05:47 |
| sawyer | Im back | 05:47 |
| sawyer | Ok, so what do i try now? | 05:47 |
| fishduck | question: if I have a game running.. can I switch back to the desktop like in windows, and then back to that game window? | 05:47 |
| Charcoalwing | One of the commands installs gcc, so then you might be able to get OSS working. | 05:47 |
| madsailor | fishduck: alt tab just like windows | 05:48 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, I dont want to try anything unsupported, last time I did I lost my gui... | 05:48 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: Maybe you could try it on a live cd first? | 05:49 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, Its unsupported, and that page says its buggy in ubuntu, I just dont think its a good idea. | 05:50 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, it worked in 13.10, what is different from here to there that would make it work? | 05:50 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, Maybe its my drivers. | 05:51 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, how would I go about updating thoughs? | 05:51 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, And how do I get pulse audio back? | 05:51 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: "sudo apt-get install pulseaudio"? | 05:52 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: http://www.stchman.com/alsa_update.html This page is about a script to update the ALSA driver. | 05:53 |
| sawyer | OK I will try that, thank you | 05:54 |
| fishduck | madsailor: tested that, won't work. Could be that it's just this game that hijacks everything | 05:54 |
| sawyer | charcoalwing, Ok im updating my driver thank you. | 05:56 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto Also here's a page about trouble-shooting, it gets to the microphone at "No mic working, rest OK". | 05:57 |
| sawyer | Well , I updated my drivers, I am going to restart brb | 05:59 |
| sawyer | still no luck | 06:02 |
| Charcoalwing | sawyer: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto Here's the troubleshooting page again! It also has a driver updating section, so maybe that way of updating could work better. | 06:03 |

| lvleph | For some reason 13.04 does not suspend when closing the lid. However, it does recognize the lid closing and I can suspend manually using pm-suspend. Additionally, I do have it set to suspend on closing the lid. | 07:26 |
| Sanju | HI | 07:27 |
| lvleph | Hi\ | 07:28 |
| JordanJ2 | HI | 07:28 |
| Sanju | i am new in ubuntu plzzz hel | 07:28 |
| lvleph | ask a question then | 07:28 |
| Sanju | how microchip pic programming in eclipse | 07:29 |
| blurkis__ | can some one recomend a product sort of like apple tv that can send video-signal from a computer to a tv? I want to be able to connect my laptop wireless to the tv to watch videos etc? | 07:29 |
| lvleph | Sanju that seems like more of an eclipse question. I don't use IDEs so... | 07:29 |
| blurkis__ | it seems (as normal) apple tv is tied to apple products, i want something simular that works with ubuntu | 07:29 |
| lvleph | blurkis__, I use a Minix Neo X5 mini | 07:30 |
| lvleph | Specifically the X7 mini has been hacked to run Ubuntu | 07:30 |
| Sanju | which ide better for embedded?? | 07:30 |
| lvleph | they are android based though | 07:30 |
| Sanju | which ide better for embedded?? | 07:31 |
| lvleph | Sanju, this is the Ubuntu help channel and those questions aren't really related to ubuntu | 07:31 |
| Sanju | ok.. | 07:31 |
| lvleph | You can however find a list of IDEs in the program manager | 07:32 |
| blurkis__ | lvleph, thanks. will look into that | 07:32 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, If your TV supports DLNA/UPNP Media Server connectivity, There are media servers you can install on your laptop | 07:32 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, To throw in a name, 'Twonky Media Server' | 07:33 |
| lvleph | fahadash, I think XBMC can do this too. | 07:33 |
| Sanju | present time i am going to meeting..i talk to lata ... | 07:33 |
| Sanju | thanks | 07:33 |
| lvleph | yw Sanju | 07:33 |

| Guest68472 | studio | 07:39 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, wel.. its a modern tv so perhaps it does, but I belive it does not help me that much. I want a wireless setup so that I can stream movies etc to the tv. Using these protocols on the tv does not help the wireless bits right? | 07:39 |
| JordanJ2 | I am running ssh and would like to disable users from entering another users /home | 07:40 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, Yes DLNA does that. Most new TVs that have wifi enabled come with DLNA/upnp media support | 07:41 |
| lvleph | JordanJ2, set the permissions on the other users folders so that they don't have read permissions | 07:41 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, Go to software center in your ubuntu machine, look for media servers, install one and activate it. See if your TV discovers it | 07:41 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, looked into it, my tv has no wifi.. so Its out of question :( though it would have been nice :) | 07:42 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, Then you need a device that hooks up to your home network, much like some adapter or something... Most sony-bluray players have this feature | 07:42 |
| JordanJ2 | Can I do that via terminal? | 07:43 |
| lvleph | I think my suspend issue has something to do with sudo cat /proc/acpi/event | 07:43 |
| lvleph | cat: /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy | 07:43 |
| fahadash | jordan, chmod, chgrp | 07:43 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, I was thinking more in the terms of a cheap media-device that can stream to the tv, I just need to find one that works with ubuntu and the free media servers | 07:43 |
| lvleph | blurkis__, sounds like an android tv device fits | 07:44 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, Latest sony's are under $50, blackfriday is around the corner | 07:44 |
| lvleph | this is what the minix neo is | 07:44 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, Google Chromecast has DLNA (Unconfirmed) | 07:44 |

| fahadash | blurkis__, If you don't have money, go buy an S-Video or VGA cable (whichever can interface between your laptop and TV) for under $10 | 07:47 |

| JordanJ2 | 700? what group is that? | 07:50 |
| Guest7127 | by default it installs 304, I can update to 319 | 07:50 |
| helmut_ | hi | 07:51 |
| lvleph | Guest7127, 304 is the most tested | 07:51 |
| Guest7127 | lvleph: don't you think nvidia tests their driver themselves? | 07:51 |
| Guest7127 | the 33x series was released when steam came to Linux and brought great performance improvements | 07:52 |
| lvleph | Guest7127, you can try sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates | 07:53 |
| Guest7127 | I'm also doubting the old drivers will support new hardware | 07:53 |
| lvleph | However I have read that 331 is buggy | 07:53 |
| lvleph | I have been working on getting nvidia to work for over a week now | 07:53 |
| JordanJ2 | What is group 700? ^^ | 07:53 |
| Guest7127 | but won't that also update the X-serve and everything? | 07:53 |
| lvleph | 700 is a numeric representation of rwx - - for permissions | 07:54 |
| Guest7127 | https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates also only has 319 and no saucy packages | 07:54 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, btw, thanks for the conversation. The talk about blueray made me look, and right now.. it seems the best sollution is a simple bluerayplayer with dlna etc. I saw one that even has netflix support, seems like a good solution for me. | 07:54 |
| lvleph | Guest7127, as far as I know it only deals with the driver | 07:54 |
| lvleph | Hmmm Guest7127 looks like I need to find the repo that had 331 let me check my history | 07:55 |

| Sandie | hello! | 07:56 |
| a4343 | Does Ubunto spy on its users? | 07:57 |
| lvleph | Guest7127, http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2013/10/install-nvidia-331-17-ubuntu-linux-mint/ | 07:57 |
| fahadash | a4343, Good one | 07:57 |
| Guest7127 | lvleph: thx, I'll try that | 07:57 |
| a4343 | So true not true? | 07:57 |
| fahadash | a4343, Your question reminds me of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP8CNp-vksc | 07:58 |
| JordanJ2 | lvleph, Can I use /home/*? | 07:58 |
| lvleph | I believe it will work, but I would be worried about messing it up and then not being able to access any home folders JordanJ2 | 07:59 |
| fahadash | JordanJ2, You got me worried buddy | 07:59 |
| JordanJ2 | :/ | 07:59 |
| duoi | a4343, Ubuntu itself doesn't. However Amazon shopping results have been baked into it so every search you make is essentially routed to Amazon's servers. You can however disable this from taking place. | 07:59 |
| a4343 | I saw that one. Ubunto's position seems to be that it was ok to collect users data and send it to canonical or whatever they are | 08:00 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, does dlna meen that any program that supports this protocol can stream to the dlna enabled device? | 08:00 |
| JordanJ2 | If I have 5 users, i'm supposted to do that for all of them? | 08:00 |
| fahadash | JordanJ2, You must know what you're doing... I am not following the whole conversation... But from those bits and pieces, its apparent that this could result into a catastrophic failure | 08:00 |
| a4343 | So the spying occurs by default? I assume that there is a message box that appears that informs users they are being spied on and how to turn off that feature? | 08:00 |
| lvleph | fahadash, he wants to make home folders unreadable by other users | 08:00 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, Yes. And its pretty open technology as well as a de-facto standard in the industry so most Players tend to support it | 08:01 |
| lvleph | by using chmod 700 /home/* | 08:01 |
| Joufflu | whatever happened to swap ? | 08:01 |
| fahadash | lvleph, He is chmod-ding away everything inside /home | 08:01 |
| pogiako | hello | 08:02 |
| wafflejock | blurkis__: yeah DLNA is digital life network alliance if it says it supports it they usually talk | 08:02 |
| pogiako | whats the best stable linux distro? | 08:02 |
| a4343 | If the users dont care like Ubunto says, then there is no harm in having a big disclaimer that shows up when they send off your data | 08:02 |
| wafflejock | pogiako: very subjective | 08:02 |
| lvleph | I would be worried that only one user could access any home folder doing that | 08:02 |
| pogiako | ;) | 08:02 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Plug_and_Play | 08:02 |
| sam113101 | where can I find dri3proto? | 08:02 |
| pogiako | no seriously, thinking of switching to 12.04 | 08:03 |
| wafflejock | a4343: you can go with Kubuntu or some other distro if you like, perhaps Linux Mint | 08:03 |
| wafflejock | oh gone | 08:03 |
| lvleph | pogiako, it will only have support until april | 08:03 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, so for example, I play musif through spotify.. is there some chanse to strean to a dlna device? | 08:03 |
| duoi | a4343 it's not "spying" any more than Google reading your emails to present you relevant ads. Amazon doesn't care if you search "bomb equipment"-- if anything, they'll give you links to buy the equipment from Amazon. That said, don't assume that you have any privacy from a distribution that doesn't state that it intends to provide privacy. If you are concerned with spying, consider that all of | 08:03 |
| duoi | your information goes through your various domain name servers and ISPs. | 08:03 |
| pogiako | i want a more stable distro than what im using w/c is 13.04 | 08:03 |
| duoi | Oh balls. He left. After I typed all that out -_- | 08:04 |
| wafflejock | 12.04 is LTS | 08:04 |
| wafflejock | !LTS | 08:04 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) | 08:04 |
| duoi | Brb calling Amazon to track him down\ | 08:04 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, Never used spotify... I mostly stream through Twonky and Windows-Media, they both work on media files from hard-drives | 08:04 |
| lvleph | for some reason I thought 2 year but you are right | 08:04 |
| wafflejock | I moved back down to Kubuntu 12.04 | 08:05 |
| wafflejock | was on 13.04 okay but had some hardware problems (actual hardware problems) I mistook for software issues so I ended up downgrading | 08:05 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, hmm, if a program does not support dlna, is there some tweak to perhaps stream the computers audio out to dlna anyway? if you get me? instead of a musicprogram streaming, some other program catches audio output and then streams it? | 08:07 |
| wafflejock | blurkis__: sounds like a cool idea... don't know of anything though | 08:07 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, I can see where you're going with that :P | 08:08 |
| fahadash | blurkis__, I heard somebody who was bypassing DRM by tapping VGA output and writing that to DVDs and selling all those Netflix movies got arrested | 08:09 |
| JordanJ2 | I have set up a vm with ssh on ubuntu but cannot access outside my network | 08:09 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: what do you mean outside your network? | 08:10 |
| fahadash | JordanJ2, I would look into VM's configuration to see if NIC is bridged or NAT-ted | 08:10 |
| wafflejock | fahadash: + | 08:10 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: you need to have port forwarding on the router going to the IP for the VM | 08:10 |
| JordanJ2 | I tried that didn't work | 08:11 |
| JordanJ2 | Using NAT | 08:11 |
| blurkis__ | fahadash, found a samsung bd-f5100 that supports dlna and netflix etc.. seems like a good win for me. :) | 08:11 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: can you connect via SSH when you're on the local network but on another machine outside the one running the VM | 08:12 |
| uncle_ben | i set up ddclient to update every 25 days...will a sleeping process get reset after a reboot? | 08:12 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: that would be step one I would think, if that doesn't work the port forwarding won't help | 08:12 |
| JordanJ2 | I will try | 08:14 |
| wafflejock | uncle_ben: don't believe so if I understand you correctly, when the system reboots it may restart some processes based on the session if that is being saved but even so processes don't just resume from where they were in most cases (rsync being an exception I can think of right now) | 08:14 |
| JordanJ2 | 1 sec | 08:14 |
| he_ | 有说中文的吗？ | 08:16 |
| uncle_ben | wafflejock, it's just that my IP rarely changes, so the default of 600 seconds is ridiculous...on the other hand, it seems like from what you're saying, it won't save the state it was in after a reboot and pick up where it left off, so i think i'll just change it to once every 12 hours | 08:17 |
| wafflejock | uncle_ben: usually you want to put something like that in a startup script somewhere so after a reboot it's back in business http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7221757/run-automatically-program-on-startup-under-linux-ubuntu | 08:17 |

| wilee-nilee | !uefi | grumpybynight | 08:21 |
| ubottu | grumpybynight: 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 | 08:21 |

| JordanJ2 | No | 08:29 |

| wafflejock | JordanJ2: can you ping from other computers even if SSH doesn't work | 08:29 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: I wonder if maybe some firewall issue is there | 08:29 |
| JordanJ2 | wafflejock, http://puu.sh/5jOzJ.png | 08:31 |
| wilee-nilee | grumpybynight, Interesting thing though is the uefi setups are only uniform across a manufacturer, not among them, they all have their own tweaked versions it seems. | 08:31 |
| grumpybynight | wilee-nilee: Ah. Maybe I'd be better off running Virtualbox, then? | 08:32 |
| wilee-nilee | grumpybynight, I know I would image/clone the setup before doing it is all, easier to reload that if something goes wrong. | 08:33 |
| JordanJ2 | wafflejock, should I change that? | 08:33 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: worth a shot honestly not sure if bridged will hep or not | 08:33 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: doesn't really hurt you can always change back with the network settings | 08:33 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: graphics settings or other hardware changes can cause problems but the network interface has never caused me problems when I fiddle with it | 08:34 |

| reisio | solars: don't cross post | 08:52 |
| shagelito | i installed debian, and i blew it up in less than 48hrs :D | 08:52 |
| crackerjackz | shagelito, whats the problem? | 08:52 |
| === XexnchiladoxoX is now known as enchilado | ||
| solars | reisio, I'm not, wanted to post in ubuntu anyway | 08:52 |
| shagelito | crackerjackz: well i "had" a dualboot who worked perfectly | 08:52 |
| solars | I think it's an ubuntu issue | 08:52 |
| crackerjackz | whats it say when you try to boot... (initramfs) or something? | 08:52 |
| shagelito | crackerjackz: turns out that i messed with the grub cfg | 08:52 |
| shagelito | crackerjackz: ask for help on forums & #debian | 08:53 |
| wafflejock | solars: search about the governer you can adjust it with some files to some degree | 08:53 |
| solars | wafflejock, I know, but there is nothing about 1500mhz in the files.. | 08:53 |
| shagelito | in #debian they aked me to do few things, but i think my helper was just anoyed after few hours hahaha | 08:53 |
| crackerjackz | shagelito, what happens when you try to boot? | 08:53 |
| wafflejock | solars: not sure have only tinkered with it a bit | 08:54 |
| shagelito | "error: invalid arch independant ELF magic. | 08:54 |
| shagelito | Entering rescue mode... | 08:54 |
| crackerjackz | dannymichel, i'm not sure what you are talking about | 08:54 |
| shagelito | so i first tryed to use boot repair | 08:54 |
| jacobi | do you know how to install ipv6 in xunbuntu 13.10 | 08:55 |
| dannymichel | if i make a better screenshot, are you capable of troubleshooting theme editing crackerjackz? | 08:55 |
| solars | wafflejock, alright, thanks | 08:55 |
| shagelito | crackerjackz: it ended badly. My last chance was a bootable grub2 cd | 08:55 |
| shagelito | crackerjackz: first, i was able to boot w8 and debian | 08:55 |
| crackerjackz | dannymichel, i'll try | 08:56 |
| shagelito | right now, the only ay to boot anything, its threw the grub2 cd. Also w8 wont load, because of a boot related problem. | 08:56 |
| wilee-nilee | shagelito, debian is not supported here. | 08:56 |

| JordanJ2 | wafflejock, So I port forwarded it but cannot access it off my external ip | 08:56 |
| crackerjackz | shagelito, have you checked the filesystem for errors? | 08:56 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: you may need to connect from outside your network | 08:57 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: if you have a smartphone (android) foxfi can work | 08:57 |
| shagelito | tbh its my first hours on debian. I really try to dont let ubuntu away regarding all the problems im facing. So if you can tell me how to check that, ill be glad to do so | 08:57 |
| jacobi | ok! i will try. | 08:57 |
| JordanJ2 | Let me grab it | 08:57 |
| jacobi | thank you! | 08:57 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: can use your cell network as a local wifi then and connect as though you're outside the network | 08:58 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: well you will be outside the network | 08:58 |

| crackerjackz | okay | 09:02 |
| sabgenton | is the post wrong? | 09:02 |
| sabgenton | doesn't apt-get --build make a package that can be uninstalled? | 09:02 |
| wafflejock | sabgenton: not aware of what you mean by apt-get --build | 09:04 |
| shagelito | crackerjackz: http://pastebin.com/KngWfG5R do u want me to google translate it ? | 09:04 |
| wilee-nilee | sabgenton, apt-get --build? | 09:05 |
| wafflejock | sabgenton: if you download source and build it then the make file that comes with the source (if one exists, usually) will have stuff for install and uninstall usually | 09:05 |
| sabgenton | wafflejock: apt-get -b source packagename | 09:05 |

| JordanJ2 | wafflejock, I still cannot access it | 09:07 |

| wafflejock | JordanJ2: don't know gears grinding.... nothing but steam | 09:08 |
| calimero_82 | hey guys, my audio doesn't work, what should i do? | 09:09 |
| JordanJ2 | Hmm | 09:09 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: would double check the port forwarding and that the router doesn't need a reboot or anything | 09:09 |
| pogiako | whats a good distro for a newbie? | 09:09 |
| JordanJ2 | Never did before | 09:09 |
| JordanJ2 | Ubuntu | 09:09 |
| pogiako | trying to look for a good distro for my mom | 09:10 |
| wafflejock | pogiako: Linux Mint was good for my parents | 09:10 |
| wilee-nilee | sabgenton, Not sure why you would need to use a build, however remove and purge would work the same I would think, you just want to be careful what you remove and watch for dependencies as usual. | 09:10 |
| wafflejock | pogiako: they are Windows XP/95 people | 09:10 |
| pogiako | yeah i guess xp would work | 09:10 |
| pogiako | where can i get it for free? | 09:10 |
| pogiako | without pirating it ofcourse ;) | 09:10 |
| wafflejock | pogiako: oh I was suggesting Linux Mint | 09:10 |
| pogiako | haha | 09:11 |
| pogiako | i have that | 09:11 |
| wafflejock | pogiako: it's similar | 09:11 |
| pogiako | she doesnt like it | 09:11 |
| pogiako | coz she dont have time for dat | 09:11 |
| pogiako | haha | 09:11 |
| wilee-nilee | pogiako, this is ubuntu support what does Xp have to do with that? | 09:11 |
| pogiako | and i forgot her username and password | 09:11 |
| pogiako | wilee-nilee: i thought someone was suggesting me | 09:11 |

| unicornjedi | hello, I need help adding a website to my web server | 09:12 |
| wafflejock | sorry JordanJ2 can't really think of anything aside from port forwarding that should block it at that point | 09:12 |
| Vivekananda | what is the default file comparison software in 12.04 ? I want to find the difference in code lines | 09:12 |
| cvstx | herro | 09:13 |
| JordanJ2 | Should I turn off firewall? | 09:13 |
| wafflejock | Vivekananda: think you need to install some sort of diff | 09:13 |
| cvstx | jordan yes | 09:13 |
| sabgenton | wilee-nilee: not quite getting you, I mean you uncomment some deb-src entry in your /etc/apt/sources.list and then apt-get -b install a package from there, can you now uninstall this package with apt-get remove or apt-get purge Properly? | 09:13 |
| wafflejock | JordanJ2: u can temporarily to test but if you can connect locally I don't see why the port forward wouldn't work | 09:13 |
| unicornjedi | can anyone help me add a website to my webserver? | 09:13 |
| sabgenton | or does it loose its uninstaller abilitys? | 09:13 |
| wafflejock | Vivekananda: you can use meld or kdiff3 there are others I can't recall right now | 09:14 |
| sam113101 | unicornjedi: what's the problem? | 09:14 |
| sabgenton | wafflejock: the guy in the forum seems to say it doesn't purge or remove the same as binary package | 09:14 |
| sabgenton | wafflejock: just trying to work out if what he's saying is missleading | 09:15 |
| wafflejock | sabgenton: yeah not sure about installing that way, when I've built projects from source for install I've usually gotten them from a third party stie | 09:15 |
| unicornjedi | sam113101, hi I just set up a webserver on ubuntu 13.10 using LAMP | 09:15 |
| wilee-nilee | sabgenton, I think you are confused as to what deb-src is. | 09:15 |
| calimero_82 | hey guys, my audio doesn't work, what should i do? | 09:16 |
| Vivekananda | wafflejock: I was wondering if there is already something installed by default. The problem with ubuntu is that for such things there is no way of knowing what is installed and what it does ( esp if it is cli and not gui based) | 09:16 |
| sabgenton | wilee-nilee: my understanding is it means apt-get update will get you a source based repo and you can pull in source pakages and install them from it | 09:16 |
| wafflejock | calimero_82: can you give details | 09:16 |
| Vivekananda | I wonder how you guys do it | 09:16 |
| wilee-nilee | sabgenton, I have never used a build command with apt-get all the dependencies are connected deb-src or not | 09:16 |
| Vivekananda | ! | 09:16 |
| kenny__ | Hi ! I need an info about DU command : when i do du -axh it find 4.1GB but DF say 17GB on my / why so different ? | 09:16 |
| calimero_82 | i've distro ubu 12.04 but audio doesn't work | 09:16 |
| unicornjedi | calimero_82, do you have pulse? does your audio click? be more specific? | 09:16 |
| wafflejock | Vivekananda: you can google to see what's there or use dpkg --get-selections | grep diff | 09:16 |
| wafflejock | Vivekananda: just gotta know a couple of commands to look for stuff | 09:17 |
| Vivekananda | but the program might not even be named "diff" eg meld | 09:17 |
| wafflejock | Vivekananda: true google would though, or wikipedia | 09:17 |
| wafflejock | Vivekananda: don't be angry you have too many options :) | 09:17 |
| JordanJ2 | How do I stop a user from viewing others home directories? | 09:18 |

| osiris33x | Hello all. I find that my laptop's trackpad as far too sensitive under Ubuntu, despite turning the sensitivity all the way down. Are there any third party apps or maybe more settings I can tweak to make the touchpad less jumpy? | 09:19 |

| wafflejock | 09:19 | |
| wafflejock | osiris33x: does it just click under your palm or is it too fast? | 09:20 |
| osiris33x | When pulling my finger up off the trackpad, the cursor zips around. | 09:20 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, hi go to the DASH and type in Dconf | 09:20 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, Tell me when you're there | 09:21 |
| osiris33x | I'm a newbie, is DASH a terminal? (sorry) | 09:21 |
| kenny__ | nobdy know where to find my lost GB ? ^^ | 09:21 |
| wafflejock | kenny__: you want to see your file tree by size? | 09:22 |
| trijntje | osiris33x: no, the dash is the search prompt you get when you hit the super/windows key | 09:22 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, press the WINDOWS key or the APPLE key | 09:22 |
| osiris33x | Oh, okay. | 09:22 |
| Jordan_U | kenny__: What filesystem are you using? Do you have any large files currently open? Were there any permissions errors from the du command? | 09:22 |
| wafflejock | kenny__: sudo apt-get install ncdu | 09:22 |
| wafflejock | kenny__: sudo ncdu / | 09:22 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, when you are in the dash... type Dconf | 09:23 |
| osiris33x | It brings up AskUbuntu | 09:23 |
| unicornjedi | really? | 09:23 |
| trijntje | osiris33x: it searches both your computer and online sources | 09:23 |
| osiris33x | Understood. | 09:23 |
| nbastin | Does anyone know how to partition disks using preseed? | 09:24 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, are you in the editor? | 09:24 |
| osiris33x | Haven't found dconf yet, still trying. | 09:24 |
| kenny__ | mmm like DU NCDU find only about 4GB excluding home far from 17GB from DF | 09:25 |
| osiris33x | Font Viewer application is the only app that comes up when searching for dconf | 09:25 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, press CTRL+ALT+T | 09:25 |
| kenny__ | (home is on another part) | 09:25 |
| osiris33x | Terminal open | 09:25 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, A terminal should pop-up. type in dconf-editor | 09:25 |
| osiris33x | Says it's not installed, and to use apt-get to do that. I'll try that first. | 09:26 |
| ripthejacker | how can I stream audio from one device to other device in the network? | 09:26 |
| osiris33x | Got it, dconf-editor is now running. | 09:27 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: depends on the protocols supported by the devices | 09:27 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: both are ubuntu systems | 09:28 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, Sweet. Okay tell me when dconf is up | 09:28 |
| marandi | hi guys , i installed lamp in my computer and i wanna have access from all over network to www sites so i change listen *:80 in ports.conf ! but still i cant access to them , what should i do ?! | 09:28 |
| osiris33x | It's up. | 09:28 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: can just share the files can use subsonic | 09:28 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: not just files, everything from system sounds, to the videos I'm watching in youtube. | 09:29 |
| kiwi_ | hi ... yesterday i installed 12.04 amd64. using a usb broadband modem with the live cd or the fresh harddrive install was no problem. however, after updating the system, the modem was not 'usb-modeswitched' correctly anymore. it took me >8 hours to figure it out and finally make the correct usb-modeswitch configurations. i just wanted to report this here, in case any developers are present. | 09:29 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, Okay... in left the panel... right click on "org" | 09:29 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, I mean LEFT click | 09:29 |
| osiris33x | Done | 09:30 |
| kenny__ | Jordan_U, It"s an ext4 and the only big file is an mysql base | 09:30 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: the system sounds part is optional, but you get the point, like all the sound can be stream to the other device | 09:30 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: yeah second time I heard that kind of request tonight but don't know | 09:30 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, in left the panel... click "gnome" | 09:30 |
| kenny__ | Jordan_U, and no permission error | 09:30 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: someone wanted DLNA on audo subsystem basically | 09:30 |
| wafflejock | same idea | 09:30 |
| osiris33x | Done | 09:31 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: http://chemicaloliver.net/linux/streaming-audio-from-ubuntu-linux-to-a-dlna-player-blu-ray-or-ps3/ | 09:31 |
| marandi | hi guys , i installed lamp in my computer and i wanna have access from all over network to www sites so i change listen *:80 in ports.conf ! but still i cant access to them , what should i do ?! | 09:31 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: guess it does exist | 09:31 |
| unicornjedi | osiris33x, after that scroll down to "settings-daemon" then click "peripherals, then click touchpad | 09:32 |
| osiris33x | Found it. | 09:32 |
| wafflejock | marandi: you restart the server | 09:32 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: No DLNA, it's an ethernet network | 09:33 |
| osiris33x | Looks like I need to change the motion threshold? | 09:33 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: why does that mean no DLNA? | 09:33 |
| unicornjedi | the threshold is for controlling how many pixels the mouse can move before the acceleration kicks in | 09:33 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: http://www.dlna.org/ | 09:34 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: Sorry, maybe I misunderstand dlna | 09:34 |
| marandi | wafflejock: i did restart the server ! | 09:34 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: yeah it's just for streaming media on a network | 09:34 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: I thought it was only wireless | 09:35 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: it's a protocol lots of stuff supports can get apps on your smart devices and stuff, but just a protocol for sharing the media | 09:35 |
| marandi | wafflejock: but nothing happened , i still dont access to apache website folder ! | 09:35 |
| wafflejock | marandi: so you have localhost access but going to the server by IP is failing | 09:35 |
| marandi | wafflejock: exactly ! i try to open webserver with apache computer ip address which is 192.168.0.58 ! | 09:36 |
| unicornjedi | orisis33x, how is it? | 09:36 |
| marandi | wafflejock: ok , solved , i opened 80 port in localhost | 09:37 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: Actually I was thinking something like this. My machine would have an audio server and devices can connect to the server. | 09:37 |
| jgcampbell300 | i am trying to find a good virtual machine manager for XEN ... anyone have any suggestions | 09:38 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: I was thinking alsa server would be something like this | 09:38 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: yeah think that link I dropped at first wil do it | 09:38 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: not sure about alsa server doing it directly that may work too | 09:38 |

| jgcampbell300 | unicornjedi, what web server | 09:39 |
| unicornjedi | jgcampbell300, a LAMP server | 09:40 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: if you install the rygel packages there though it looks like you can setup the audio to be broadcast as DLNA audio then you can setup any DLNA client device/program to play it | 09:40 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: thanks , I was looking for something like that, I don't know if I will be able to make Ubuntu stream to an Ubuntu , but I can certainly stream to my phone. | 09:40 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: Ok | 09:40 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: should be able to find a DLNA player in Ubuntu too I imagine | 09:41 |
| wafflejock | I've only used ones on | 09:41 |
| wafflejock | andriod though | 09:41 |
| ripthejacker | I have used a dlna server before in ubuntu, minidlna | 09:41 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: but it was just for files | 09:41 |
| jgcampbell300 | unicornjedi, did you read the man pages | 09:41 |
| wafflejock | yeah looks like that rygel thing gets everything from pulse, but haven't tried | 09:41 |
| wilee-nilee | kiwi_ The developers do not come here, if you have a detailed description of what happened and your fix it might be relevant, a 3rd party dongle is not really relevant though, however I recognize your frustration | 09:41 |
| wafflejock | it sounds interesting anyhow | 09:42 |
| unicornjedi | jgcampbell300, nooo.....? I prefer simple step by step procedure | 09:42 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: Yes, I'll definitely try that, thanks for the help :) | 09:42 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: np good luck | 09:42 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: have you used mediatomb? | 09:42 |
| jgcampbell300 | unicornjedi, try http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-12.04-lts-apache2-bind-dovecot-ispconfig-3 .... howtoforge.com is a good source for people that learn that way | 09:43 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: nope not aware of that | 09:43 |
| wafflejock | unicornjedi: basically you will setup a new sites-available file then use a2ensite to enable the new site (making a symbolic link in sites-enabled) then restart the server with sudo service apache2 restart | 09:43 |
| wafflejock | unicornjedi: but you should read up on it | 09:44 |
| jgcampbell300 | unicornjedi, you may want to go to howtoforge and search for just apache ... ispconfig can get complex if you let it | 09:44 |
| kiwi_ | wilee-nilee, i understand ... | 09:44 |
| wafflejock | unicornjedi: get familiar with your /etc/apache2 | 09:45 |
| ripthejacker | wafflejock: rygel looks promising. Thanks :D | 09:45 |
| unicornjedi | wafflejock, i got to my /sites-available and there are two files.. | 09:45 |
| wafflejock | ripthejacker: sure thing... yeah I usually watch a lot of netflix and youtube so don't do much streaming and use XMBC for streaming off my NAS when I need it | 09:45 |

| varunendra | Zap-W, some chips support some advance power saving modes, which become 'bugs' in situations like this. Maybe window is sending the chip into 'suspend' mode before shutting down. | 10:11 |
| varunendra | *windows | 10:12 |
| Zap-W | varikonniemi: I see | 10:14 |
| uncreative | Can anyone offer some help to someone who wants to give ubuntu a try for the first time? | 10:14 |
| Zap-W | varikonniemi: so how do I revive the wireless chip during ubuntu boot without having to physically replug it to the usb port every time | 10:14 |
| wilee-nilee | uncreative, What problems are you having? | 10:15 |
| uncreative | I just want to know, after downloading ubuntu an installing what will happen to the files currently on my computer? Also do I need a cd to download and boot from? | 10:16 |
| varunendra | Zap-W, unfortunately, if it is indeed what I assumed (sleep mode) there is no other way except a power cycle to reset the chip. And power cycle on USB devices is only possible by physically disconnecting it. | 10:17 |
| wilee-nilee | uncreative, What is on the computer right now? | 10:17 |
| Zap-W | varunendra: then how come it works if I reboot into windows again? only not ubuntu | 10:18 |
| uncreative | Mostly just music files, and a few text documents nothing of real importance and I do believe I've already backed up everything onto an external ssd | 10:18 |
| Zap-W | then there must be a way | 10:19 |
| wilee-nilee | uncreative, Ubuntu would go in in a new partition in an unallocated space, so whatever is there is not effected if done correctly, yes you would use a cd or usb to install, you download a ISO to burn or load to the usb. | 10:20 |
| varunendra | Zap-W, it is a 'feature' that becomes a 'bug' only in some particular situations. The firmware receives the 'suspend' signla from window driver, and then it waits for the 'resume' signal from the same driver. Ubuntu or any other OS can resume it only if it uses the same driver which is practically not possible. | 10:21 |
| yogesh_ | hi there | 10:21 |
| varunendra | Zap-W, besides, this is only one of many other possible reasons, just the most common one | 10:22 |
| yogesh_ | any body know how to run .apk androied apps on ubuntu without using virtualbox or any vm | 10:22 |
| uncreative | Wilee-nilee, Ok I have a 16gb usb I will plug in and give it a try, are there applications that I should check out to enhance my experience after booting up ubuntu? | 10:22 |
| wilee-nilee | yogesh_ You need android to run those I believe. | 10:23 |
| yogesh_ | can all androied apps can run in wine like utility like it runs windows apps | 10:23 |
| cfhowlett | yogesh_, android isn't linux, linux isn't android. get the android sdk for linux | 10:23 |
| Zap-W | varunendra: what are the other reasons? then maybe I can disable this feature in windows when rebooting | 10:23 |
| wilee-nilee | yogesh_ Never heard of any android apps running in wine. | 10:23 |
| yogesh_ | ok | 10:24 |
| wilee-nilee | uncreative, It is a full operating system, some install the ubuntu-restricted-extras to get flash and codecs for media. | 10:24 |
| varikonniemi | Zap-W, you highlight the wrong nick | 10:25 |
| varunendra | Zap-W, when you reboot into Ubuntu (from Windows), have you checked "rfkill list" ? Does it show the adapter as "Hard blocked"? | 10:25 |
| wilee-nilee | uncreative, Feel free to ask questions in any area here if needed. ;) | 10:25 |
| uncreative | Wilee-Nilee thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question. I'll be giving this os a try. | 10:26 |

| wilee-nilee | uncreative, Cool, enjoy. ;) | 10:27 |
| Ben64 | uncreative: it will run slow from usb or cd, don't think thats how it will be when installed :) | 10:27 |
| Zap-W_ | varunendra: going to try that now | 10:28 |
| Zap-W_ | brb | 10:29 |
| uncreative | Ben64, I'm not worried about the speed of the install, I'm a man with plenty of time for something that may be better than what I'm currently using. Thanks for the heads up though, I'll make a sandwich. | 10:29 |
| mrafiq | i always face deadjam using chrome after some time it runs fine. | 10:29 |
| Ben64 | uncreative: i meant if you're going to be testing it out from the cd/usb, since it can run from there | 10:30 |
| mrafiq | it happens every time whenever i reboot my pc | 10:30 |
| uncreative | Ben64, OH okay. Still thanks though. | 10:30 |
| mrafiq | it hangs out during browsing of facebook page | 10:30 |
| cfhowlett | mrafiq, only on Facebook? could it be blocked by government in your location? | 10:33 |
| wilee-nilee | mrafiq, facebook has a a lot of code running, I would install noscript and separate the wheat from the chaffe, that is a FF addon, chrome has a similar flash blocker. | 10:33 |
| mrafiq | no | 10:33 |
| mrafiq | how to do that | 10:34 |
| cfhowlett | mrafiq, I had this issue with sites waiting for platform.twitter to load - blocked in China. added twitter to adblock - problem solved. | 10:34 |
| mrafiq | no fb is open in our country | 10:35 |

| Zap-W | varunendra: it isn't blocking | 10:36 |
| mrafiq | so what to do | 10:36 |
| wilee-nilee | dkorzhevin, Was there a kernel update there, and are you running proprietary graphic drivers? | 10:37 |
| cfhowlett | mrafiq, as wilee-nilee suggested, install noscript and check the code to see what's hangin | 10:37 |
| varunendra | Zap-W, so does the wifi seem to be active on Ubuntu's part (driver loaded, scanning APs and everything...), just unable to connect to the AP? | 10:37 |

| dewdgang-frank | quick question, im on a macbook pro with the latest os x and I'd like to run Ubuntu from a SD Card or USB Stick. SD Card would be the best if it's possible. Tried it with a tutorial where I needed to download "rEFIt" and so on. | 11:37 |
| dewdgang-frank | but after successfull installing ubuntu on my sd card when i hold the option key while booting it only recognizes "rEFIt" to boot. Cant boot my installed ubuntu | 11:38 |

| dewdgang-frank | cfhowlett Somehow I feel like theres a way to run Ubuntu from SD Card without refit/refind | 11:42 |

| jamesweech | Guest whats up? | 12:57 |
| roryhughes | My latest project http://imageswaps.tk/ (running on ubuntu) | 12:57 |
| jamesweech | Hey i installed ubuntu on my chromebook (XFCE) but xchat is TINNY | 13:00 |
| jamesweech | *TINY | 13:00 |
| jamesweech | can someone help me resize it? your on what looks to me like 9dpi | 13:01 |
| irc-5225225 | jamesweech: Do you mean all the fonts are really small? | 13:01 |
| jamesweech | irc-5225225 I fixed all of them but xchat by the looks of it | 13:01 |
| jamesweech | irc-5225225 but yes 90% of them are tiny, i fixed most with xfce4-settings-manager | 13:01 |
| jamesweech | i just cant see xchat very well, ill screenshot it in a second | 13:01 |
| irc-5225225 | jamesweech: I belive xchat uses it's own fonts in the settings menu, and settings-manager doesn't affect xchat for some reason | 13:02 |
| jamesweech | http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-11162013-010202pm.php | 13:02 |
| jamesweech | Oh thank you, i resized it to something bigger haha | 13:02 |
| jamesweech | i turned up the DPI but that just crippled it :P so i just changed it in the xchat settings, Why am i blind (oh wait its tiny) | 13:03 |
| duoi | holy crap that is one suspect looking image host | 13:03 |
| jamesweech | duoi: Sorry its built into XFCE | 13:03 |
| jamesweech | Thank you | 13:03 |
| irc-5225225 | duoi: Isn't there an option to send to imgur? | 13:03 |
| Wsl | jamesweech, alt + F8 will help | 13:03 |
| jamesweech | its only got the option upload to zimage | 13:04 |
| jamesweech | sorry about that | 13:04 |
| jamesweech | but its fixed now haha so dont worry | 13:04 |
| duoi | jamesweech: no i understand that much, i'm just questioning the reasoning of the developer lol | 13:04 |
| jamesweech | duoi: So am i, its all french also D: | 13:04 |
| pd0x\explodes | Hi, are there any good weather apps for ubuntu? Hard to find one that I know I can trust. | 13:04 |
| jamesweech | pd0x\explodes Conky? | 13:04 |
| irc-5225225 | duoi: Possibly it has an easier API than anything else? | 13:04 |
| irc-5225225 | duoi: Even though imgur has a great api... | 13:04 |
| pd0x\explodes | Conky? | 13:04 |
| jamesweech | ah 1 sec i remembered reading something on omgubuntu | 13:05 |
| jamesweech | lemme find it :) | 13:05 |
| irc-5225225 | pd0x\explodes: Conky is a system information tool, but you can make it display the weather. | 13:05 |
| jamesweech | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/10/gorgeous-new-weather-app-stormcloud-arrives-on-ubuntu | 13:05 |
| irc-5225225 | as well as free disk space/ram/network usage... | 13:05 |
| pd0x\explodes | ahh | 13:05 |
| pd0x\explodes | hmm | 13:05 |
| duoi | irc-5225225 moreso the web address. contained with a subfolder with an awkward filename and php file extension | 13:05 |
| pd0x\explodes | thanks, I'll check it out | 13:05 |
| pd0x\explodes | easy to setup? | 13:05 |
| irc-5225225 | pd0x\explodes: Conky or stormcloud? | 13:06 |
| jamesweech | duoi, Im on ARM linux so im kinda screwed for screenshot apps :P | 13:06 |
| pd0x\explodes | either ;) | 13:06 |
| Guest11064 | who has free time | 13:06 |
| jamesweech | me :) | 13:06 |
| irc-5225225 | Conky isn't very easy to set up, but it's a lot more configurable. | 13:06 |
| Ben64 | !arm | jamesweech | 13:06 |
| ubottu | jamesweech: ARM is a specific (RISC) processor architecture used in a variety of applications such as handhelds and networkdevices. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM . For ARM specific support, stop by the #ubuntu-arm channel. | 13:06 |
| irc-5225225 | But if you don't really care, go with stormcloud. | 13:06 |
| jamesweech | I know haha i use it | 13:06 |
| jamesweech | Im on a ARM ubuntu install | 13:07 |

| jamesweech | Sure guest | 13:07 |
| jamesweech | whast wrong | 13:07 |
| jamesweech | when i press TAB i get a comma after the name like: jamesweech, can i disable that? Sorry i dont use xchat much, normally IRSSI | 13:07 |
| Ben64 | Guest11064: nobody knows until you ask | 13:07 |
| bekks | jamesweech: irssi has tab completion, too. | 13:07 |
| Guest11064 | i want to print someting in c | 13:07 |

| jamesweech | bekks, I know but i didnt think it added , after then ame | 13:07 |
| jamesweech | *the name | 13:08 |
| duoi | jamesweech: you can always just print screen and CTRL+V into http://www.imgur.com. Once I found out you can paste directly into imgur instead of having to save the file and uploading it, i pretty much removed all dependence on the aforementioned archaic method or applications that facilitate the process. | 13:08 |
| irc-5225225 | bekks: It's a : by default. | 13:08 |
| * Wsl Much Enemies Less Friends .!. | 13:08 | |

| jamesweech | cooljay1983: Any questions? | 13:09 |
| jamesweech | irc-5225225: how odd :P Ill dig around, | 13:09 |
| cooljay1983 | james i been googling what i need | 13:09 |
| jamesweech | Good :) | 13:09 |
| jamesweech | We always encourage that | 13:09 |
| cooljay1983 | its lot more complicated then windows but seems alot better | 13:09 |

| cooljay1983 | erm not really windows does everything for you | 13:10 |
| sandeepr | tasksel tasksel/first multiselect ubuntu-desktop, this line does not seem to have any effect | 13:10 |
| sandeepr | as it gives cli only | 13:11 |
| jamesweech | Got my tab fixed thanks :) | 13:11 |
| jamesweech | sandeepr: How are you installing ubuntu? | 13:11 |
| jamesweech | sandeepr: Ubuntu server? Ubuntu desktop? etc | 13:11 |
| sandeepr | jamesweech, ubuntu server | 13:11 |
| cooljay1983 | the command prompt is loads easier too but linux seems alot secuier and seems you can do hell of a lot more | 13:11 |
| cooljay1983 | cant wait to learn it all | 13:11 |
| cooljay1983 | looked on wiki and been learning the terminal commands | 13:12 |
| sandeepr | jamesweech, i tried ubuntu-desktop. it did not give me the option to hit f6 where i can pass the kernel params | 13:12 |
| jamesweech | sandeepr: Which desktop environment do you want? | 13:12 |
| sandeepr | jamesweech, so i used ubuntu-server | 13:12 |
| sandeepr | jamesweech, unity | 13:13 |
| Ben64 | cooljay1983: do you have a problem with ubuntu? this isn't a chat channel. there is #ubuntu-offtopic for discussion | 13:13 |
| cooljay1983 | thats the one iam using ubuntu desktop | 13:13 |
| jamesweech | sandeepr: Ok: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ? | 13:13 |
| sandeepr | jamesweech, i did like to automate it via the preseed file | 13:14 |

| gvo | Pastbin what youve tried as k1l_ suggested | 13:34 |
| Lupus | The wiki copy pastes, i will do | 13:34 |
| ctcb | Like right now, printing os.path.realpath(__file__) gives me "/home/ctcb/Dev/Projects/SAGE/SAGE.py", instead I wish it to give me "/home/ctcb/Dev/Projects/SAGE/" so I can dynamically search from it. | 13:36 |

| Rallias | Nightwalkerkg, If you use an EFI bootloader, you can modify the bootloader to add grub and have grub boot the mini.iso file. | 13:53 |
| Lupus | Thanks gvo, im leabing now | 13:53 |
| Rallias | patagonicus, Are you running the version out of humble bundle? | 13:54 |
| patagonicus | Rallias: I bought it on the Humble Store yesterday, I'm guessing its the same version. No swf version for download, though, only 32bit executables. | 13:54 |
| Rallias | patagonicus, Do they still offer the ubuntu-store links? | 13:55 |
| Danato | guys did anybody try to download and install the image of ubuntu 13.10 from ubuntu website? | 13:55 |
| patagonicus | Rallias: I don't see any links, just steam key (which I activated before seeing that the Linux version isn't on Steam) and direct downloads. | 13:56 |
| Danato | because I tried to install it on a vm on 2 computers and im getting a weird error | 13:56 |

| Danato | it says "This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU. Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU | 13:57 |

| compdoc | Eagleman, do you know that "write list = @jrpoot" means the group jrpoot? | 14:17 |
| Eagleman | compdoc but the user robin is not in the group jrpoot, so why can robin access the jrpoot folder? | 14:17 |

| Danato | what kind of setting on virtualbox can cause it to detect my CPU as i686 instead of x64??? | 14:18 |
| compdoc | robin is in sambashare | 14:18 |
| Eagleman | compdoc what does sambashare do? | 14:18 |
| Rallias | patagonicus, Try installing the 32-bit deb and do an apt-get -f install | 14:18 |

| ziluc | Hi all, i've installed ubuntu 13.12 and now my pc is booting correctly, why? | 14:18 |
| lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: yes i know, but his question was more to know if grub would show both Os | 14:18 |
| krz | how do i know which version of python i have installed | 14:19 |
| Rallias | ziluc, You mean 13.10? | 14:19 |

| patagonicus | Rallias: That did pull in some additional libs (pango, xft), but no ssl. Same error message. | 14:20 |
| Danato | huh has anybody here tried to install ubuntu on virtualbox? | 14:20 |
| Rallias | Danato, Do you have it set to Ubuntu or Ubuntu (64 bit)? | 14:20 |
| krz | when i do EXPORT. where does it store the config file again? | 14:21 |
| Danato | Rallias: are you talking about the vb settings? | 14:21 |
| Rallias | Danato, Yes. | 14:21 |
| krz | thanks gvo . i put it in /usr/local/aws/ | 14:21 |

| jost | Is there a way to give certain files execution permissions on an NTFS file system, even if the global permissions on that partition are set to 0644? | 14:36 |
| jost | Or do I need to change the permissions for the whole file system and then remount it? | 14:36 |

| MonkeyDust | jost, ubuntu on ntfs? | 14:36 |
| ubuntuaddicted | normally it's a recording disk for mythtv but i stopped mythtv | 14:37 |
| ubuntuaddicted | it's also a backup drive for some database's but the backups arent scheduled to run anymore for the day | 14:37 |
| jost | MonkeyDust: one partition on NTFS... and on that partition there is a git repo that does not execute its commit-hook since it has 0644 permissions | 14:37 |
| patagonicus | ubuntuaddicted: NFS share, maybe? Those are not listed in fuser, I think. | 14:37 |

| MonkeyDust | jost or backup, change ntfs to ext4 | 14:42 |
| moppy | jost, you can do posix permissions on ntfs but it is hard to set up | 14:43 |

| jackarg | Hi, i'd like some help concerning playing dvds on an old mac mini that I rebooted with linux. I managed to have players like totem recognize it, but now for every player there's an error. Totem says: "totem cannot play this type of media (dvd) because it does not have the appropriate plugins to be able to read from disc" | 15:01 |
| widad | moppy, i want to read oraly not just reading by myself | 15:01 |
| moppy | widad you want text-to-speech? | 15:01 |
| widad | moppy, yes | 15:01 |
| bunduru | hello | 15:02 |
| moppy | widid i dont know: you might have to extract the text first? anyway if google "TTS" and "text to speech" that might work. Those 2 phrases are the specific name of the thing you're after | 15:02 |
| jackarg | vlc says " DVDRead could not read block x" with x being a different value, usually 0, 2, and so on. any help? (this happens when playing a dvd) | 15:03 |
| moppy | jackarg, did you load the multimedia restricted codecs, etc? is this 13.10? | 15:04 |
| lecoeus | widad: okular has text-to-speech but i don't think it supports other languages | 15:04 |
| lecoeus | though it just might | 15:04 |
| lecoeus | other than that, pdftotext pdffile.pdf | whatever your favorite text to speech program | 15:04 |
| jackarg | moppy, i installed everything, yea. dunno about loading though? No, this is a distro called peppermint, and it's completely based on 12.04. I know I should go to peppermint irc but i'm sure people can find a solution here too... | 15:05 |
| IdleOne | jackarg: actually, no. you should ask the peppermint channel. We don't know what they changed or didn't. | 15:06 |
| lecoeus | jackarg: are you sure dvd is not damaged? | 15:06 |
| bunduru | i'm having some problems with ubuntu the computer never shuts downs, searched about this, no workaround worked so far | 15:06 |
| vibhavp | /part | 15:06 |
| vibhavp | oops | 15:06 |
| jackarg | IdleOne, I've tried and peppermint NEVER answers. lecoeus it's not, I've tried with 3 | 15:07 |
| moppy | bunduru, at what point does it hang? | 15:07 |
| IdleOne | jackarg: that doesn't make it ok to come here asking about a distro we don't support. Please use their support channel/forums. | 15:08 |
| bunduru | and my wireless interface was acting a bit crazy don't know if it has anything to do with that, yesterday i was able to connect normally and today it wouldn't connect but now it is working | 15:08 |
| moppy | jackarg, 12.04 used to use medibuntu, i dont know what the current status of that is. i known libdvdcss went to videolan | 15:08 |
| BluesKaj | bunduru open a terminal and run sudo halt , to shut your machine down | 15:08 |
| bunduru | moppy, at the splash | 15:08 |
| bunduru | i have to hold the power button down to completely power down | 15:09 |
| moppy | bunduru, press Escape to cancel it.s ee if there is an error displaued | 15:09 |
| moppy | bunduru, i am guessing it's acpi but can't say for sure until there is some kind of error trace | 15:09 |
| jcrubino | how do I add add-apt-repository command to minimal install? | 15:09 |
| moppy | jcrubino, edit /etc/apt-sources i think. you;d hve to check the filename (with ls or something( | 15:10 |
| jackarg | moppy, yea I fixed this problem (thanks to people from this channel IdleOne) so I now have libdvdcss, at least I think so. Otherwise, could you or anyone else recommend a up to date distro that I can use to run XBMC? And remember this is an old mac, so lightweight if possible? | 15:10 |
| bunduru | BluesKaj, i would like to do it normally without cli | 15:10 |
| moppy | jcrubino, /etc/apt/sources.list, i think | 15:10 |
| IdleOne | jackarg: I'm happy you got the problem solved. | 15:11 |
| jcrubino | moppy: just to add the command? Isn;t there a package I can apt-get install ? | 15:11 |
| moppy | jcrubino, sudo add-apt-repository? | 15:11 |
| bunduru | moppy, i think i recall there is no error.. last line is something like ...shutting down | 15:11 |
| jcrubino | moppy: yes | 15:12 |
| BluesKaj | bunduru. yes , but if needed you can use that command until the problem is fixed or goes away , updating and upgrading willl usually solve most annoying problems like yours | 15:12 |

| moppy | ok, cool | 15:13 |
| TheBoss | i have a question about screen resolution, would this be the right channel | 15:13 |
| moppy | bunduru, have you tried 'sudo shutdown -H 0' .. it might be a small h | 15:13 |
| moppy | bunduru, also perhaps go down a runlevel and see if it shuts down from there. but really i think it's an acpi issue with the power management firmware | 15:14 |

| lexx_koto | PowerPC Mac mini? | 15:16 |
| BluesKaj | bunduru. have you updated and upgraded lately ? | 15:17 |
| bunduru | moppy, from cli the command poweroff that i usually use doesn't only the "halt -something" does | 15:17 |
| jcrubino | moppy: for future refefernce its the base ubuntu install from docker | 15:18 |
| bunduru | BluesKaj, yes i did, but after i ended up re-installing ubuntu | 15:18 |
| jcrubino | moppy: I think its the add-apt-repository command is not on the minimal ubuntu images and I just do not know what package it is in | 15:18 |

| ironfoot495 | Hello everyone I need help figuring out how to install and use utorrent. IU just can't seem to understand the concept??? | 15:39 |
| ironfoot495 | I have a ubuntu 12.04.3 | 15:39 |
| SchrodingersScat | ironfoot495: I think you misspelled rtorrent | 15:39 |
| ironfoot495 | SchrodingersScat: is it rtorrent I've been trying utorrent? | 15:40 |
| SchrodingersScat | ironfoot495: ok, I see that utorrent has a server for ubuntu, what concept aren't you getting? | 15:41 |
| ironfoot495 | SchrodingersScat: Itried using it and I can't get a single movie? | 15:42 |
| jajal | test | 15:42 |
| ironfoot495 | SchrodingersScat: I foollowed an instaslltion example and now all I have is a big mess. Is there away that is simple? | 15:43 |
| ironfoot495 | or less messy I have files everyehere now that just don't work. | 15:44 |
| SchrodingersScat | ironfoot495: that's why I recommended something with freedom. | 15:44 |
| lecoeus | ironfoot495: did you install it with apt-get? | 15:44 |
| ironfoot495 | lecoeus: yes I did. | 15:44 |
| lecoeus | ironfoot495: i have never used utorrent but it must work the same way as any other torrent client | 15:45 |
| lecoeus | did you use other clients? | 15:46 |
| DarthDepa | Hi guys :) | 15:46 |
| SchrodingersScat | lecoeus: I don't think he could have used apt, the site just has a tar.gz | 15:46 |
| ironfoot495 | Well I've used bittorrent and I see something happening but I don't have control of it it just setsd there. | 15:46 |
| DarthDepa | I have an ASUS notebook... K53S series... I would like to optimize the use of battery! | 15:47 |
| wildwind | DarthDepa: use powertop | 15:48 |
| bunduru | back | 15:48 |
| ironfoot495 | SchrodingersScat: yes I used the tat file and at first I got the gui but because it just sat there I deleted it and started over and now it doesn't work at all. | 15:48 |
| DarthDepa | wildwind: thanks :) I will check... | 15:49 |
| ironfoot495 | tar file | 15:49 |
| DarthDepa | and why SUDO don't allow me to use TAB? | 15:49 |
| msi | Anyone who likes to get a free dlink router inside the usa feel free to text me and I will add your details onto the delivery list, it's a stock we need to get ride of in our company: 313 283 1665 | 15:49 |
| lecoeus | ironfoot495: it is usually better to use software from repositories | 15:49 |
| lecoeus | there must be many torrent clients in the software center like transmission | 15:50 |
| ironfoot495 | lecoeus: ok I'll try that thanks. | 15:50 |
| SchrodingersScat | ironfoot495: Usage: utserver -settingspath -logfile -configfile -pidfile -daemon -usage | 15:50 |
| DarthDepa | wildwind: with powertop I can see who use battery... and for optimization? | 15:51 |
| wildwind | DarthDepa: well it depends on who is it :) | 15:53 |
| bunduru | My computer doesn't power off from cli or gui, in addition to the workarounds which didn't work, i've tried the poweroff and halt commands but those won't power down the pc. | 15:53 |
| bunduru | any tips? | 15:56 |
| iderik | I dont understand how my harddrive is partitioned. Shouldnt /home be there? http://www.n0.se/f/f/24169_screenshotfrom2013-11-16165324.png | 15:56 |
| irc-5225225 | iderik: /home doesn't need to be on a seperate partition. | 15:56 |
| DarthDepa | wildwind: ? | 15:57 |
| irc-5225225 | it can be, but it's not required. | 15:57 |
| varunendra | DarthDepa, use left arrow key in powertop to goto lasttab, then 'Enter' to set status of various settings to 'Good' | 15:57 |
| harushimo | quick question | 15:58 |
| harushimo | I want to be able write to my other hard drive | 15:58 |
| iderik | irc-5225225: ah ok. why cant i resize any partition? i wish to free some space. | 15:58 |
| harushimo | but when I look in my media directory on the terminal, it doesn't show up but I can see it on my devices list when I look into gui interface | 15:58 |
| wildwind | DarthDepa: i don't have much exp with power optimization. but let us see the powertop output. | 15:59 |
| irc-5225225 | iderik: You can't resize a partition that is in use by the system. | 15:59 |
| harushimo | do I keep it mounted | 15:59 |
| irc-5225225 | iderik: If you have a live usb/cd, you can resize when booting from that. | 15:59 |
| nightwalkerkg | Hi,i am runing Ubuntu 13.10 and Firefox,when i open it it gives me a message that i need to install flesh,when i click install it opens a new windows and tells me that there are no plugins to be installed. But when i open a video on youtube it works. Also,animations are kinda lagy,i really want to avoid installing any drivers for GPU,i had some problems in the past with them. There are three options in additional drivers. Is th | 16:01 |
| nightwalkerkg | have to install drivers. | 16:01 |
| varunendra | harushimo, no partition will show up in /media until mounted. | 16:01 |
| harushimo | that is what I thought | 16:02 |
| irc-5225225 | nightwalkerkg: On youtube, it might be using the HTLM5 player. | 16:02 |
| harushimo | thank you | 16:02 |
| irc-5225225 | *html5 | 16:02 |
| iderik | irc-5225225: hmm, ok. thanks for the help! | 16:02 |
| varunendra | np :) | 16:02 |
| nikolam_ | hi, Skype is saying to me: ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. | 16:02 |
| nikolam_ | I would like to use camera with skype | 16:02 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | Does anyone here have experience with skype for linux? I'm having trouble accessing my past conversation history, since it seems to disappear unlike windows | 16:02 |
| nikolam_ | I loaded skype like this before: #!/bin/bash | 16:03 |
| nikolam_ | LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so /usr/bin/skype | 16:03 |
| nikolam_ | and it used to work | 16:03 |
| nikolam_ | and now not | 16:03 |
| harushimo | I have the drive mounted but I want to keep it mounted and be able to write data to that drive | 16:03 |
| nightwalkerkg | irc-5225225: Yeah i thought of that. So should i install restricted ? | 16:03 |
| lecoeus | nikolam_: i don't know the answer to your question, but why do you preload stuff in the first place? | 16:04 |
| varunendra | harushimo, then you need to add an 'fstab' entry for the partition. | 16:04 |
| nikolam_ | lecoeus, to be able to use web cam? | 16:04 |
| DarthDepa | varunendra: done ;) thanks | 16:04 |
| lachitha | help me solve my wifi problem | 16:04 |
| nikolam_ | It used to be only way to use web cam with skype before | 16:04 |
| harushimo | I was trying to avoid fstab if possible | 16:05 |
| harushimo | alright | 16:05 |
| harushimo | I need to back up my settings and then I can mess around that file | 16:05 |
| lecoeus | nikolam_: skype works without ld_preload for most people | 16:05 |
| irc-5225225 | harushimo: what's wrong with fstab? | 16:05 |
| wildwind | harushimo: you can have it auto-mounted by adding a line to /etc/fstab. btw what fs is on that drive? | 16:05 |
| varunendra | !fstab | harushimo | 16:05 |
| ubottu | harushimo: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 16:05 |
| lecoeus | but maybe that library you are trying to preload got moved due to an update | 16:05 |
| nikolam_ | lecoeus, oh, if that is new behaviour | 16:06 |
| harushimo | wildwind: ext4 | 16:06 |
| lecoeus | nikolam_: it's not new, maybe you had an exceptional situational with your webcam | 16:06 |
| syrious | Is there an easy sudo command for installing utorrent in 13.10?? | 16:06 |
| nikolam_ | dunno, it is Bus 002 Device 003: ID 093a:2608 Pixart Imaging, Inc. PAC7311 Trust WB-3300p webcam | 16:07 |
| bekks | syrious: sudo apt-get install utorrent | 16:07 |
| syrious | bekks: tried that, returned that it couldn't find the file | 16:07 |
| wildwind | harushimo: then why it's not in fstab already? :) is it external drive? | 16:07 |
| bekks | syrious: then utorrent isnt in the official repos. | 16:07 |
| harushimo | no its not external | 16:08 |
| harushimo | its an internal drive | 16:08 |
| nikolam_ | I needed to rotate video, btw in v4l2ucp | 16:08 |
| bekks | harushimo: Then it belongs to fstab | 16:08 |
| lecoeus | nikolam_: try running it without preloading | 16:08 |
| harushimo | i know | 16:08 |
| nikolam_ | lecoeus, same. | 16:08 |
| harushimo | before I do that, I have another question for all of you | 16:08 |
| lecoeus | nikolam_: if that doesn't work, try finding the library in the same directory | 16:08 |
| harushimo | why does my second hard drive show up like this 1b477a91-8d58-4de0-8bd9-e72cc618a168 in my media directory | 16:09 |
| varunendra | syrious, last time I tried utorrent on Ubuntu, I found it to be too CPU intensive. You should try a native solution | 16:09 |
| bekks | harushimo: Because thats the UUID of the filesystem on your drive. | 16:09 |
| varunendra | harushimo, because you haven't assigned it a 'LABEL' | 16:09 |
| syrious | bekks: fair. figured I'd give it a shot at lease | 16:09 |
| harushimo | I used UUID and associated with an label | 16:09 |
| harushimo | that goes in the fstab correct? | 16:10 |
| wildwind | i connect to the internet via openvpn over ppp (3G usb modem). sometimes 3g gets stalled and i have to physically disconnect and reconnect the modem. then i have to wait for ppp to go up and restart openvpn client. to automate the last part, i put a script with "pkill -USR1 openvpn" in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d. it works. here comes my question: is it the good way to do it? do i miss some drawbacks? | 16:10 |
| syrious | varunendra: any suggestions? | 16:10 |
| varunendra | syrious, I personally use ktorrent. Not as advanced as utorrent, but works for me | 16:11 |
| mazda01 | switching to a larger hdd. want to switch from msdos to gpt, what's the best way? was going to use clonezilla to clone the / and /home partitions to an image, then restore them to the new gpt partitions on the larger drive. will that work? | 16:11 |
| SchrodingersScat | syrious: I like rtorrent, but you can run `apt-cache search torrent.client | more` and get a list | 16:11 |
| varunendra | syrious, perhaps qtorrent is another (maybe better) option | 16:11 |
| varunendra | syrious, +1 to SchrodingersScat | 16:12 |
| lecoeus | syrious: transmission | 16:12 |
| MonkeyDust | deluge | 16:12 |
| lecoeus | it's basically the standard | 16:12 |
| BluesKaj | ktorr works well ,and no ads or constant reminders to go pro , syrious | 16:12 |
| BluesKaj | err ktorrent | 16:12 |
| harushimo | from that UUID, can I find out what drive is it associated with? | 16:13 |
| wildwind | harushimo: yes, with disk utility | 16:14 |
| varunendra | harushimo, UUIDs are supposed to be unique for different partitions, so yes, you can use 'sudo blkid' command to see which partition it is | 16:14 |
| krabador | i need to look the session listed on lightdm | 16:14 |
| krabador | at startup | 16:15 |
| krabador | how can i see them? | 16:15 |
| varunendra | harushimo, by 'label' in fstab, do you mean "Mount Point"? | 16:15 |
| krabador | what conf file? | 16:15 |
| krabador | i tryed /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf | 16:15 |
| krabador | but nothing | 16:15 |
| MonkeyDust | krabador go to /usr/share/xsessions/ | 16:15 |
| cWiden | Is there going to be a physical UDS for or around 14.04 ?? | 16:15 |
| harushimo | no when I label, I mean what drive is associate like /dev/sdb or /dev/sda | 16:16 |
| krabador | MonkeyDust, i've the conf file? | 16:16 |
| MonkeyDust | krabador it's a folder | 16:16 |
| MonkeyDust | harushimo mount shows where each uuid is mounted | 16:16 |
| varunendra | harushimo, those are generic addresses, not 'labels' | 16:16 |
| harushimo | thank you for the correction | 16:16 |
| harushimo | if I'm misusing the terminology, please correct me | 16:17 |
| MonkeyDust | cWiden questions about 14.04 in #ubuntu+1 | 16:17 |
| cWiden | I athanx | 16:17 |
| jazzme | hello | 16:17 |
| cWiden | **thanx | 16:17 |
| nikolam_ | lecoeus, | 16:18 |
| varunendra | harushimo, use Gparted to assign 'Labels' to partitions for easy recognition. But it doesn't matter if you are going to mount them via fstab. Once mounted, they appear by their mount point names | 16:18 |
| nikolam_ | I fixed skype with Webcam with preloading /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so | 16:18 |
| nikolam_ | since it is 32-bit | 16:18 |
| lecoeus | so they moved the location of the library | 16:18 |
| lecoeus | happens sometimes | 16:18 |
| nikolam_ | I also previously reinstalled libv4l-0 | 16:19 |
| jazzme | I was wondering, after a while of inactivity xubuntu returns to the login screen, and after logging in all of my open apps are shutdown. How can I prevent this? | 16:19 |
| nikolam_ | well, I should change on local wiki | 16:19 |
| nikolam_ | so people can actually use it.. | 16:19 |
| mazda01 | how many of you use GPT partitioning over the older msdos? | 16:20 |
| bunduru | Please can somebody help? My computer doesn't power down, from cli or gui, haven't found a workaround that works, i've tried the poweroff and halt commands but those won't power down the pc. | 16:20 |
| wheatthin | bunduru, sudo shutdown -h now | 16:21 |

| ocooel | please point me to an article on Ask! or ubuntu forums for configuring and setting up conky. | 16:25 |
| wheatthin | ocooel, and what's your reasoning for this request? Unless you couldn't understand it. | 16:25 |
| wheatthin | ahh sorry | 16:26 |
| wheatthin | !conky | ocooel | 16:26 |
| ocooel | so I can learn how to set up conky without bothering you guys developing 14.04 | 16:26 |
| bekks | ocooel: This channel is for ubuntu support ;) | 16:28 |
| wheatthin | :) | 16:28 |
| ocooel | whatthin: any articles on customizing 12.04 will be awesome. Ubuntu support and forums aren't exactly the easiest to navigate. | 16:28 |
| wheatthin | well I found a doc, but not from askubuntu | 16:28 |
| ocooel | bekks: help me set-up conky..? | 16:28 |
| wheatthin | but basically it just says 'sudo apt-get install conkywizard' | 16:28 |
| bekks | ocooel: Ask a specific question :) | 16:29 |
| joossee | ocooel, you can edit the xml files for many of the themese supported by 12.04, especially when running unity 2d | 16:29 |
| zykotick9 | mazda01: i first used GPT to support a 3TB drive I bought - now, I try to use it on anything I can... I like not having the 4 primary limit, having nice sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 sda5 ... instead of the big JUMP that came with extended/logical | 16:29 |

| wheatthin | zykotick9, then use the GTP partitioning | 16:29 |

| wheatthin | bunduru, then my friend, I think (like others pointed out) you have an acpi problem. | 16:30 |
| zykotick9 | !didntwork > bunduru my fav factoid ;) | 16:30 |
| ocooel | bekks: I want conky on my desktop with hardware usage etc. want to learn how I take default unity and turn it into what I want | 16:31 |

| bekks | mazda01: Backup everything, clone the disk to the larger one, enlarge the target partition, and enlarge the filesystems. Clonezilla can do all that but backing up. | 16:44 |

| ubuntuguru12 | slackware is based off ubuntu now | 16:49 |
| irc-5225225 | ubuntuguru12: Unity doesn't really work on any other distros. Only fedora and arch have managed to get a basic port of it. | 16:49 |
| lecoeus | irc-5225225: he is trolling | 16:49 |
| irc-5225225 | lecoeus: Oh, right. Guess I've seen too many people who would say that for real. | 16:50 |
| lecoeus | i don't think anybody would say that for real | 16:50 |
| ubuntuguru12 | unity is nice. its better than kde | 16:50 |
| === topper4125_ is now known as topper4125 | ||
| irc-5225225 | to be honest, the blur effects on it are nice. | 16:51 |
| irc-5225225 | it just seems like it's meant for a tablet, with all the buttons being quite big. | 16:51 |
| bunduru | eventually the gurus will fix this bug right? | 16:51 |
| lecoeus | unity has good sides, but kde is so obviously superior that it isn't even funny | 16:51 |
| mazda01 | so no one can assist with moving ubuntu to a larger disk and or switching from msdos to gpt? | 16:52 |
| bekks | ubuntuguru12: slackware isnt based on Ubuntu at all, technically. | 16:52 |
| ubuntuguru12 | kde looks like windows too much | 16:52 |
| bekks | mazda01: I just assisted you - did you get the post? | 16:52 |
| irc-5225225 | ubuntuguru12: kde can be modified to be less like windows. | 16:52 |
| mazda01 | bekks, i must have missed it, had to step away sorry | 16:52 |
| lecoeus | irc-5225225: seriously, he is just trolling | 16:52 |

| jetski | how can I prevent grub boot loader from automatically starting ubuntu after 10 secs? | 16:55 |
| jetski | I have windows installed on it, and would like for it to just wait until I pick one | 16:55 |
| zykotick9 | jetski: i believe setting the countdown to 0 will make grub just stay there. /etc/default/grub and run update-grub after making the change. | 16:55 |

| nvs | is this possible? | 16:57 |
| ubuntuguru12 | i wish redhat/fedora would quit stealing from ubuntu. | 16:57 |
| jetski | zykotick9, it automatically starts ubuntu for me, and if I had hibernated windows previously, that hibernation data gets messed up, so I want it to just wait | 16:57 |
| bekks | nvs: There is no technical reason for it being not possible. | 16:58 |
| lecoeus | nvs: it is possible | 16:58 |
| jetski | ubuntuguru12, is there a terminal command I can run to set timeout=0? | 16:58 |

| zykotick9 | jetski: you need to edit the file, then update-grub. "sudo nano /etc/default/grub" is a terminal editor. | 16:59 |

| bekks | porkman1: The command line interface for your package management system. | 17:11 |
| nvs | i dont know i have crashed ubuntu at least 7 times and all those times i installed lenses i used the apt-get | 17:11 |
| porkman1 | i dont want debian packages, i want ubuntu packages | 17:11 |
| bekks | porkman1: Ubuntu uses the debian package management system. | 17:12 |
| bekks | porkman1: Thats why Ubuntu packages have the .deb extension | 17:12 |
| nvs | so i decided not to install absolutely anything outside the software center & i have my ubuntu live and well | 17:12 |
| porkman1 | that doesnt make sense, but ok | 17:12 |
| bekks | porkman1: It makes perfectly sense, since Ubuntu is derived from Debian and Ubuntu didnt reinvent the wheel of a package management system. | 17:13 |
| Ari-Yang | porkman1: ubuntu is Debian-based | 17:13 |
| porkman1 | silly question, but why not just use debian? | 17:13 |
| Ari-Yang | porkman1: why not use windows? | 17:14 |
| Ari-Yang | porkman1: why not use OSX? | 17:14 |
| LjL | because those aren't Debian-based? | 17:14 |
| wheatthin | it's a choice :P | 17:14 |
| porkman1 | windows is debian based? | 17:14 |
| LjL | i think what porkman1 is asking is how Ubuntu differentiates itself from Debian | 17:14 |
| porkman1 | i thought windows was made from Microsoft | 17:15 |
| wheatthin | the community, and distinct patches in which improves debian | 17:15 |

| porkman1 | well.. i dont want to devert. | 17:15 |
| nvs | and just another thought.. what about the new bioshock? can i play it on ubuntu? | 17:15 |
| nvs | with wine or something? | 17:16 |
| Ari-Yang | porkman1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment | 17:16 |
| LjL | anyway, bottom line, the packaging system is the same as Debian. the actual *packages* may not be, and it's in general not safe to install a Debian package in Ubuntu, or vice versa. | 17:16 |
| bekks | nvs: You have to look that up on winehq | 17:16 |

| === jam is now known as Guest53740 | ||
| quatar__ | well 96% will do anyway | 17:48 |

| theadmin | quatar__: Well, generally, the installer's automatic partitioning doesn't fail if secure/fast boot are disabled. At least I've not heard of them failing. Now with manual partitioning, you need some strange extra stuff for EFI. | 17:56 |

| urielvigilant | zykotick9: i cant understand what steps i need to do with your info, iam newby | 18:28 |
| pfifo | Danato: chances are xubuntu will be a little lighter on resources | 18:28 |
| pratz | also, they should not be accesible on windows and mac | 18:28 |
| Danato | pfifo: thats what i thought | 18:29 |
| zykotick9 | urielvigilant: 1) do you know how to open a terminal? 2) do you have an Excel file available? | 18:29 |

| urielvigilant | zykotick9: when i click on download a bar appear on chrommium downside with the download, i click on it , and it opens Firefox. It i remove Firefox it opens whell with LibreOffice, can you understand this ? | 18:31 |
| pfifo | pratz: no, well yes, windows and mac have gnupg tools, but overall it will be encrypted, so unaccessable from everywhere until you enter a password | 18:31 |
| zykotick9 | urielvigilant: i understand that. | 18:32 |

| beefman | hi. i had a motherboard die on me today, and i removed the two raid 1 (mirrored) drives, now trying to get them to work in another machine. I had used the dead motherboard's onboard raid. | 18:38 |
| lvleph | I found this rathodr2 http://mylinuxexplore.blogspot.com.es/2011/11/solved-ubuntu-doesnt-shutdown-properly.html but it is really old | 18:38 |
| beefman | now when i try to mount them, i get unknown filesystem type 'ddf_raid_member' | 18:38 |
| beefman | any ideas? | 18:38 |
| rathodr2 | lvleph, just a thought (no guarantees). have you tried sudo apt-get autoclean/upgrade/update (each separate command)? I've found this cleans the package managemet system and local repo | 18:38 |
| beefman | also i have tried setting the current machine's motherboard bios to ahci, raid, and ide, but neither drive will boot in any of those settings | 18:39 |

| jhutchins_wk | beefman: You'll need to restore them from backup, without the original controller you can't recover the raid. | 18:39 |

| beefman | i mean, if i can find another identical motherboard? | 18:41 |
| albert_ | I tried unplug/plug headset again | 18:41 |
| jhutchins_wk | An identical motherboard would probably work. The board was presenting the array to the OS as a single drive, right? | 18:41 |
| beefman | yeah | 18:41 |

| lvleph | OnceMe, I think the only way I fixed this was by disabling the screensaver | 18:47 |
| pfifo | pratz: technically their the same thing, but I think you want to operate on mutiple files (in a directory) so you will want to use tar to make a tarball of all the files, and then gnupg to encrypt the tarball | 18:47 |

| gordonjcp | !virtualbox | 19:21 |
| ubottu | Virtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 19:21 |
| AlanBell | Rat2000: yup, it works fine, did you have a specific question about it? | 19:22 |
| Rat2000 | i just installed virtual box and selected the correct interfaces and chose bridge | 19:23 |
| Rat2000 | do i need to make some specific configurations? | 19:23 |

| AlanBell | Rat2000: that should be fine, the guest will pick up it's own IP address from the network DHCP server | 19:25 |
| AlanBell | unless you set a static one on the guest | 19:25 |
| === greylocks is now known as Greylocks | ||
| Rat2000 | AlanBell, the problem is, it does not give an ip. | 19:26 |
| Rat2000 | that is the problem | 19:26 |
| AlanBell | Rat2000: so you have a DHCP server on the network that has enough IP addresses to hand one out to the guest? | 19:27 |
| AlanBell | Rat2000: if in the guest you set a static IP address that is in the right subnet, can it ping stuff? | 19:27 |
| Rat2000 | yes, i am sure that the dhcp server has enough ipadress | 19:27 |
| AlanBell | Rat2000: is this wireless or wired? | 19:27 |
| Rat2000 | wired | 19:28 |
| Rat2000 | so what you are saying is that it should work out of the box | 19:28 |
| AlanBell | yeah, presumably NAT works? | 19:28 |
| Rat2000 | i did not try with nat | 19:29 |
| Danato | that reboot is taking way too long, I guess i should roll it back to 13.04 | 19:29 |

| joossee | what is the difference between kvm and qemu in a nutshell? | 19:51 |
| reisio | Encrypt: right, it's just you asked why you needed FOO based on BAR, not why you needed FOO :) | 19:51 |
| bekks | Rat2000: Your second assumption is wrong. | 19:51 |
| reisio | joossee: qemu begat kvm begat qemu-kvm begat qemu | 19:51 |
| Rat2000 | bekks, i am all years | 19:51 |
| reisio | joossee: it's hard to say now, most copies of qemu at this point are the same as kvm | 19:51 |
| bekks | Rat2000: Please refer to chapter 6 of the vbox manual - all I can say is explained there, and even better, regarding the NAT section. | 19:51 |
| joossee | reisio, well kvm lets me usoe something called virtio but qemu seems to not? | 19:51 |
| reisio | joossee: the devs renamed a lot to confuse people :p | 19:51 |
| Rat2000 | please give me a link | 19:51 |
| Encrypt | Actually, LUKS is quite strange... | 19:52 |
| reisio | joossee: qemu and kvm are the same these days | 19:52 |
| reisio | joossee: you'd have to have quite an old copy for it to be otherwise | 19:52 |
| joossee | reisio, ubuntu 12.04 64...? | 19:52 |
| Rat2000 | but bekks, i want bridge not nat, should i still read that? | 19:52 |
| AlanBell | bekks: the original problem was that bridged networking wasn't working, I asked Rat2000 to flip to NAT to check that it wasn't a DHCP server issue | 19:52 |
| reisio | joossee: what codename is 12.04? | 19:52 |
| wafflejock | Rat2000: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html | 19:52 |
| reisio | for some reason packages.ubuntu.com only uses stupid codenames | 19:52 |
| joossee | reisio, precise pangolin i believe? | 19:52 |
| Rat2000 | thnx wafflejock | 19:52 |
| reisio | joossee: yeah, all the same | 19:53 |
| reisio | qemu and kvm are both 'qemu-kvm' | 19:53 |
| reisio | unfortunately since they kept changing the name the only way to half unambiguously refer to it is to make the name both names :p | 19:53 |
| reisio | gj upstream | 19:53 |
| joossee | reisio, ok.. how does I understand how the disk options works, IDE, SCSI, etc for the VM.. but what is virtio and what does it work on? im trying to get, gasp, windows2003 booting, only as a test | 19:54 |
| reisio | joossee: anyways you'll know if you don't have "kvm", because it will be dastardly slow | 19:54 |
| reisio | joossee: ask #kvm about that | 19:54 |
| joossee | reisio, i ran kvm-ok and I know my server supports virtualization so.. | 19:54 |
| joossee | enabled in BIOS, etc. | 19:54 |
| psusi | joossee, virtio doesn't emulate physical hardware, instead it allows the guest kernel to use a more efficient api to send requests to the hypervisor | 19:54 |
| joossee | i did get windows 2003 installed but only on 8GB partition... cant get it to work any bigger | 19:55 |
| gajillion | Hello, would OpenDNS family filter play a factor in me not receiving updates and upgrades from apt? | 19:55 |
| Encrypt | I'll come back... Reboot :) | 19:55 |
| Rat2000 | bekks, that article doesn't really solve annything. i want to use bridge and there it says just to select that from the options witch i did and still doesnt work | 19:55 |
| joossee | psusi, ok so thats dependent on the OS for the VM? | 19:55 |
| pfifo | Encrypt: there are 2 layers here, LUKS is the first, being placed on the partition itself, it transperently encrypts all data that is written to the partition. The second layer is you filesystem of choice, it manages storing data in a logical manner such as in files. LUKS dosent not provide any type of system for managin files so hence you need a filesystem on top of it. | 19:55 |
| psusi | joossee, yes, the guest OS must support it... I think Oracle made some Windows drivers to do it, but I'm not sure... | 19:55 |
| gajillion | Hello, would OpenDNS family filter play a factor in me not receiving updates and upgrades from apt? | 19:55 |
| joossee | kk tty | 19:55 |
| wafflejock | Rat2000: think bekks was referring to just understanding what the difference is between NAT and bridged connections and what the implications would be, what's your exact issue? | 19:56 |
| reisio | gajillion: quite possibly | 19:56 |
| reisio | opendns is kind of awful | 19:56 |
| gajillion | Ok, thanks | 19:56 |
| reisio | adware nonsense | 19:56 |
| reisio | dansguardian might be a better idea, but I haven't wasted my time on it | 19:56 |
| Rat2000 | wafflejock, i want to set bridge and recive an ip on the guest machine from virtualbox | 19:56 |
| Rat2000 | for some reason it does not work | 19:56 |
| bjensen82 | pfifo: exim4 lets me use mandrillapp.com with a specific username / password for whatever user / service is sending off an email using e.g. /usr/bin/mail ? | 19:57 |
| wafflejock | Rat2000: how exactly does it not work... are you using ifconfig to check the IP that you get on each? are they both Ubuntu installs with default settings network wise | 19:57 |
| Rat2000 | wafflejock, i have ubuntu as host and pfsense as guest, pfsense is a free bsd based distro | 19:58 |
| joossee | i know yall are gonna hate this question but how do I mount the second disk in an install package using virt or Virtual Machine Manager? | 19:58 |
| tortora | film | 19:58 |
| pfifo | bjensen82: thats not what exim does, you origin app is responsible for setting the destination of the email | 19:58 |
| joossee | the second ISO? | 19:58 |
| bjensen82 | pfifo: I see...well what app does that then? | 19:59 |
| naptic | hi | 19:59 |
| bjensen82 | for example I have signed up for mandrillapp.com so I dont have to have my own mail server running for sending out emails for users. I would like my services to use that as well | 19:59 |
| apofis | hello | 20:00 |
| joossee | salut | 20:00 |
| pfifo | bjensen82: well then, exim is not what your looking for, exim is a mail server, so is postfix. youll need to tell your orgin app to use mandrill.com or whatever. | 20:01 |
| apofis | Im wondering is somebody could help me with this | 20:01 |
| grimeton | bjensen82: checkout ssmtp | 20:01 |
| naptic | i just installed ubuntu 12.04 in my desktoppc next to windows 7. the installation got finished without any probems(installed from usb-stick). now it doesnt boot, and when the usb stick is still in, there comes a message: invalid or corrupt boot image. can somebody tell me whats wrong? | 20:01 |
| pirret | you can configure postfix as a smarthost | 20:01 |
| apofis | when I lock my system (12.04.03) randomly my OS hangs up | 20:01 |
| apofis | in logs I got this famous message: NVRM: os_schedule: Attempted to yield the CPU while in atomic or interrupt | 20:01 |
| pirret | to use mandrillap or whatever smtp-server | 20:02 |
| pfifo | bjensen82: what mail are you refering to? Im thinking your interested in mail from syslog or something of that nature | 20:02 |
| wafflejock | Rat2000: you should pastebin your ifconfig info, not sure about FreeBSD/pfsense but if DHCP is working then Bridged connection from virtual box should work | 20:02 |

| joossee | naptic; did you use encryption and are you sure you wrote the boot loater and grub info the harddisk and not the USB stick? | 20:02 |
| bjensen82 | pfifo: basicly anything. like mails from the raid controller when a disk goes bad etc | 20:02 |
| bjensen82 | grimeton: thanks Ill checkout ssmtp :) | 20:02 |
| pirret | postfix as a smarthost is what you want then | 20:02 |
| naptic | joosee: no encryption. and i used unetbootin to write ubuntu to the stick | 20:03 |
| joossee | naptic, cuz in onlder versions the default option is not the one you want when it asks you about grub, it is the one for the harddrive, you have to write it down when you are partioning the drive | 20:03 |
| bjensen82 | pirret: why not ssmtp? | 20:03 |
| pirret | or that, never heard of it | 20:03 |
| bjensen82 | ill check out both thanks | 20:03 |
| joossee | naptic, ive only installed from install CD so... | 20:03 |
| pirret | looks like it fits better for this job now that i googled it | 20:03 |
| pirret | postfix might be an overkill | 20:03 |
| pfifo | bjensen82: thats syslog I think. but there are a lot of sources for mail like that, so what pirret is describing may be more efficient than finding and setting options for each indivudial program that uses mail | 20:03 |
| naptic | joosee: i had ubuntu 12.04 already installed, but there was the same problem. grub seems to be alright, because it ran smoothly till today | 20:04 |
| pfifo | *postfix is always overkill* | 20:04 |
| joossee | lololol | 20:04 |
| naptic | and grub still tuns good | 20:04 |
| bekks | Rat2000: Your issue can be solved much better in #vbox | 20:04 |
| reisio | no, superman tuns good, grub tuns _WELL_ | 20:04 |
| reisio | :p | 20:04 |
| naptic | *runs | 20:05 |
| joossee | so you get a bnch of different boot options from grub? | 20:05 |
| naptic | yes | 20:05 |
| Rat2000 | bekks, i didn't tought of that, good idea thnx | 20:05 |
| naptic | windows etc | 20:05 |
| joossee | hrmmm ok explain your problem in more detail naptic? | 20:05 |
| joossee | naptic; which come up and what have you tried? | 20:06 |
| bjensen82 | pfifo: | 20:06 |
| bjensen82 | pfifo: ok thanks | 20:06 |
| naptic | well... when i want to boot ubuntu, there is this purplelike backgroundcolor, if you know what i mean... the ubuntucolor, and nothing happens... when i got the stick in the usbport, and enter default, it says this error with invalid or corrupt boot image | 20:07 |
| naptic | i tried to reinstall :D what else... | 20:07 |
| naptic | but i can run the livesession with no problem | 20:07 |
| naptic | any idea? | 20:08 |
| joossee | reisio, where does virt keep its logs? | 20:08 |
| reisio | virt? | 20:09 |
| joossee | naptic, ok, when you get the grub loader, hit e and you can edit grub for that one time. find the second or third last line that ends in "ro" and an option "quiet splash" | 20:09 |
| wilee-nilee | naptic, Have you used this ISO on this usb to install before with no problems, IE have you checked the md5sum? | 20:10 |
| joossee | then hit f10. lemme find a link for you | 20:10 |

| naptic | the md5sum is alright | 20:10 |
| auronandace | vicatcu: install flash from the repo | 20:11 |
| vicatcu | couldn't find a clearly accepted answer on the webs | 20:11 |
| naptic | so what to do with quiet splash? | 20:11 |
| vicatcu | auronandance.... i.e. through synaptic? | 20:11 |
| wilee-nilee | naptic, Could it be a graphic driver is missing, just trying to understand a unusual description. | 20:11 |
| joossee | naptic: http://askubuntu.com/questions/147285/unable-to-boot-into-ubuntu-12-04 | 20:11 |
| joossee | naptic: follow these instructions to put quiet splash in the right place, dont add nomodeset yet | 20:11 |
| auronandace | vicatcu: indeed | 20:11 |
| naptic | ok i will try... if it doesnt work, ill come back ;) | 20:12 |
| vicatcu | auronandance do u know the package name? | 20:12 |
| joossee | naptic ya get a tablet or something buddy :) | 20:12 |
| vicatcu | searching on "flash" doesn't exactly narrow it down | 20:12 |
| naptic | nah | 20:12 |
| auronandace | !info flashplugin-installer | vicatcu | 20:13 |

| bekks | sp38: vi :) | 20:32 |
| wafflejock | vizgix: at the command line vi vim and nano are probably the most popular | 20:32 |
| wilee-nilee | vizgix, There is gedit, some like leafpad these are outside the cli though. | 20:32 |
| vizgix | i usually use gedit, but can not find a andress to wget | 20:32 |
| sp38 | bekks, "anything similar" :) | 20:32 |
| wafflejock | sp38: geany | 20:32 |
| sp38 | ok wafflejock thanks let me try | 20:32 |
| wildwind | sp38: see wafflejock's answer above | 20:32 |
| PDilyard | sp38: i use sublime text 3 | 20:32 |
| bekks | sp38: gvim :D | 20:32 |
| vizgix | nano is probably the built in one | 20:33 |
| PDilyard | bekks is hardcore :) | 20:33 |
| vizgix | ill try and check back | 20:33 |

| Harmageddon | Hi folks! I'm still messing around with my graphics problems. I just reinstalled Ubuntu 13.10, it worked fine with nomodeset. Then, I installed nvidia-319 via apt-get and ran nvidia-xconfig. After rebooting, I get the login screen (in very small resolution), but after logging in, the screen stays black, I only see my cursor. | 20:37 |
| Harmageddon | Graphics card is a nVidia GeForce GT 750M. | 20:37 |
| ania | Harmagedon youre not alone | 20:38 |
| PDilyard | speaking of graphics cards: nvidia geforce gtx 650 or ati radeon hd 7790? | 20:38 |
| ania | there is some problem with new kernel.......i was able to see login screen but coulndt login to system at all | 20:39 |
| hydester | wilee-nilee: yeah, just defective vs incompatible may be issue with some returns. wasn't sure if there was any criteria or some wiki listing compatible devices | 20:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Harmageddon, Do you have a dual card setup perchance run lspci and identify the graphic hardware | 20:39 |

| vizgix | Greetings, Im VIZ, Im having trouble with my DNS for my webhosting with installed program webmin on my ec2 amazon ubuntu server. I do not recall how to change settings on webmin, I believe I have use an editor to open the file once i 'ls'. nano did work, but i didnt get legible code. Im lost. also please bear with me as im ussing irssi via cmd line | 20:40 |
| wilee-nilee | hydester, Not really, I bought a really cheap one from amazon and it did not work in linux, but bought another about the same price that did, you get what you pay for to some extent. | 20:40 |
| hydester | wilee-nilee: did you have to pay return shipping to amazon? | 20:41 |
| joossee | guys i just compiled a file but I donut know how to execute it? | 20:41 |
| Harmageddon | ania: I'm here. I tried almost everything so far, but nothing works for me. :( Wondering, why the first start after installation works fine, but from then on, it stops working... | 20:41 |
| ania | Harmagedon can u press crt+alt+f1 ....login ....there.....than write "dmesg" look for some error notice | 20:41 |
| wilee-nilee | Harmageddon, So from waht I understand the nvidia kicks in when needed, otherwise the other card runs in general, not an area I'm real up on really. | 20:42 |
| ania | pr if possible stay with orginal graphic settings and drivers in system | 20:42 |
| vizgix | anyone hosted with webmin or used ubuntu servers | 20:43 |
| wilee-nilee | hydester, I did not return that one, but it depends on why you return, I forget the choice that generally guarantees no charge. | 20:43 |
| padrino | You know if I install Ubuntu to my laptop will it overwrite Windows or install alongside it? | 20:43 |

| PDilyard | yeah, what he said | 20:44 |
| padrino | Do I get the choice during the installation steps? Because I don't want to install, overwrite Windows and realised I missed out something to disable overwriting? | 20:44 |
| wilee-nilee | padrino, So is this W8? | 20:45 |
| vizgix | sigh, only plebs here | 20:45 |
| padrino | Why you being so condescending vizgix | 20:45 |
| k1l_ | webmin got kicked out of the debian and ubuntu repos anyway. | 20:45 |

| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade in the terminal and pastebin all the info. | 20:53 |
| gordonjcp | PDilyard: I'm amazed how many people ask about webmin then go off in a snit when they're told it's not supported | 20:54 |

| PDilyard | gordonjcp: im amazed at how many people go off in a snit at all, i mean this isnt paid support | 20:55 |
| Jordan_U | dewdgang-frank: GRUB is needed to be able to boot. Did you boot Ubuntu's installer via EFI or BIOS? (If you used Apple's boot menu and selected "Windows", you booted via BIOS). | 20:55 |
| [Gentoo] | what bit? | 20:55 |
| gordonjcp | PDilyard: true | 20:55 |
| [Gentoo] | Mathieuh: ^ | 20:55 |
| Mathieuh | [Gentoo], the part with sysinfo | 20:55 |
| Jebus | There is a red ! at the top right hand corner I press it and it open update manager and when I check for updates it says Failed to download repository information Check your internet connection | 20:55 |

| Richhh | 3GHz Celeron 1GB RAM fast enough to encrypt home folder without much slowdown? | 20:56 |
| Richhh | in lubuntu | 20:56 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U Apples Boot manager. GRUB always fails on the installation at the end of the installation but the installation finishes anyway | 20:56 |
| [Gentoo] | Mathieuh: at the bottom right? conky? | 20:56 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Are you on the net otherwise? | 20:56 |
| Mathieuh | conky ok thanks! | 20:56 |
| Jordan_U | dewdgang-frank: Did Apple's boot manager call it "Windows" or "Ubuntu" though? | 20:56 |
| [Gentoo] | it says conky in bold red you noob lol | 20:56 |
| Mathieuh | lol i am | 20:56 |
| Jebus | yes | 20:56 |
| Mathieuh | [Gentoo], i read beauty not conky at first | 20:57 |
| Mathieuh | lol | 20:57 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U After Ubuntu is installed on my SD Card, I reboot, hold the option key on my macbook pro and it only offers me Mac OS X to boot from. Or the Ubuntu live CD when its inserted. No Ubuntu from SD Card to chose | 20:57 |
| [Gentoo] | Mathieuh: :) | 20:57 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Have you modified the sources.list or changed it's access? | 20:57 |
| Jebus | Failed to fetch cdrom://Ubuntu 12.04 LTS _Precise Pangolin_ - Release i386 (20120423)/dists/precise/restricted/binary-i386/Packages Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs This is what it says when I run sudo apt-get update | 20:58 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, This an install? | 20:58 |
| bjensen82 | When I try to setup ssmtp it stalls. That is when I try to test the configuration: ssmtp "foo" my-email@gmail.com and I press enter...nothing happens.. | 20:58 |
| Jordan_U | dewdgang-frank: I want to know, when you booted Ubuntu's *installer*, did you use Apple's built in boot manager, and if so did the option for booting Ubuntu's installer have a "Windows" label or an "Ubuntu" label (or something else)? | 20:58 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U Oh, sorry. Yes it always says Windows. I thought this would be some kind of known bug or something. | 20:59 |
| [Gentoo] | Richhh: yes | 20:59 |
| Richhh | Forums say encrypting the home folder negligibly impacts performance on 'modern PCs', have 3GHz Celeron 1GB RAM - fast enough? | 20:59 |
| [Gentoo] | Richhh: it will work | 20:59 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U Never ever saw the Ubuntu label when i booted from Ubuntu 12 or 13 live CD | 20:59 |
| Richhh | [Gentoo] ok thanks | 20:59 |
| [Gentoo] | Richhh: no idea how much cpu usage it would cost | 21:00 |
| gordonjcp | Richhh: I tried it on a 3GHz Core 2 Duo with 4GB of RAM and it worked, but it absolutely crippled performance | 21:00 |
| Jordan_U | dewdgang-frank: That means that it's trying to boot via Apple's BIOS implementation rather than via EFI, and since you want an EFI based installtion you want to boot the installer via EFI. | 21:00 |
| Jebus | not that I know of under that is says Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 21:00 |
| [Gentoo] | Richhh: it also depends on your hdd | 21:00 |
| Jordan_U | dewdgang-frank: What image did you use, and did you burn it to an actual CD/DVD? | 21:00 |
| [Gentoo] | if its an ssd then encryption will slow it | 21:00 |
| gordonjcp | Richhh: ten minutes to load a 14MB image, for example | 21:00 |

| wilee-nilee | Jebus, What you describe in the apt-get update sounds like a live cd/usb enviroment, is this correct? | 21:01 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U Sorry im not that fast and pretty sleepless since trying this for ages :-) | 21:01 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U Imagefilename is: | 21:02 |

| Jebus | I downloaded ubuntu 12.04 using a disc from the Cannonical website | 21:02 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Use nicks. | 21:02 |
| pfifo | Jebus: you are being asked to do the same for other users ;) start your comments with a persons name. | 21:03 |
| Jordan_U | dewdgang-frank: See if you can boot the intaller via UEFI from rEFIt, booting the installer via UEFI should make the install succeed, though you can fix things manually even when booting the installer via BIOS. | 21:03 |
| Jebus | !tab | 21:03 |

| wilee-nilee | Jebus, I live environment using just the cd has limitations, what is your end goal here? | 21:04 |
| wolfspy | hi | 21:04 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U Okay, I already tried it with rEFIt, some people say its outdated. So I should stick with "refind". Currently on http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ and trying to download it. Feeling pretty dumb, wheres the dl link :F | 21:04 |
| wolfspy | im having trouble installing ubuntu 13 | 21:04 |
| [Gentoo] | wolfspy: how | 21:05 |
| wolfspy | whenever I select any options once the live cd has booted, it says kernal panic | 21:05 |
| [Gentoo] | thats no good then | 21:05 |
| wolfspy | and I think it says it could not write to something | 21:05 |
| Jebus | To stop using windows was my original end goal but then I decided I wanted to do stuff for security companies | 21:05 |
| wolfspy | it does that with linux mint too | 21:05 |
| [Gentoo] | hw issue probably | 21:06 |
| wolfspy | whats hq | 21:06 |
| wolfspy | hw* | 21:06 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Type the first few letters of a persons nick than hot tab to complete it than answer them. | 21:06 |
| wilee-nilee | hit* | 21:06 |
| [Gentoo] | wolfspy: have you tried booting with the bare minimum (nothing else plugged in) | 21:06 |
| wolfspy | what do you mean | 21:07 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Can we get that squared away? | 21:07 |
| wolfspy | like to moniters or mouse or anything] | 21:07 |
| wolfspy | no* | 21:07 |

| Jebus | wilee-nilee, yep | 21:08 |

| DebianIsHARD | hey guys, "greeter-hide-users=true" is not working on the latest version of ubuntu desktop | 21:09 |
| DebianIsHARD | any idea? | 21:09 |
| [Gentoo] | DebianIsHARD: what is that from? | 21:09 |
| dewdgang-frank | Jordan_U Im trying it now again booting it via rEFIt again. Maybe I have some luck. Otherwise I will come here again :D :D | 21:09 |
| DebianIsHARD | lightdm.conf | 21:09 |
| [Gentoo] | ah ok sort of guessed | 21:09 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Excellent, so the live cd does not do updates unless you modify the sources.list and wont save any changes unless you have a persistent setup which you would need it on a usb to do. | 21:10 |
| nir | wille | 21:10 |
| DebianIsHARD | any ideas why it isn't working? seems like this is the popular tweak to not list usernames on the logon screen but perhaps not working with latest version | 21:10 |

| nir | GoMEZ | 21:14 |
| Jebus | <wilee-nilee> that is the thing the reason why I bought the CD was because windows 8 wouldn't let me boot from a usb or a CD that I made | 21:14 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, If you want to learn security stuff there are OS's that are designed to run on a usb with no saves like kali linux, but it is not supported here. | 21:14 |
| trism | DebianIsHARD: do you have greeter-show-manual-login=true as well? I think you need both these days for it to work in unity-greeter | 21:15 |
| DebianIsHARD | trism: yes i do | 21:15 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, W8 has a different setup is is uefi, here lets have the bot tell you. | 21:15 |
| wilee-nilee | !uefi | Jebus | 21:15 |
| ubottu | Jebus: 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 | 21:15 |
| DebianIsHARD | trism: i need it to login to domain | 21:15 |
| Jebus | <wilee-nilee> I have used Kali before but I have more understanding with Ubuntu | 21:16 |
| Harmageddon | Does anybody have an idea how I could get more than a cursor on a black screen after logging in to Ubuntu 13.10? | 21:16 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Cool, so you see the bots uefi info? is this a W8 installed by the manufacturer? | 21:16 |
| [Gentoo] | Harmageddon: try ctrl+alt+f2 | 21:17 |
| Jebus | <wilee-nilee> W8 was install by the manufacturer | 21:17 |
| nbursh | -///Guys, If I install win xp on extern hd, will it remove win 7 launcher? | 21:18 |
| [Gentoo] | yes | 21:18 |
| Harmageddon | [Gentoo]: Yes, tty1 - tty6 are working, but I'd like to have a graphical interface sometimes ;) | 21:18 |
| [Gentoo] | nbursh: if its the same drive | 21:18 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Thanks, so getting a usb/cd to boot is a little more work, along with the dualboot, are you at all familiar with uefi? | 21:18 |
| [Gentoo] | nbursh: if not then it should be ok | 21:18 |
| trism | DebianIsHARD: just tested and it is working here, are you using unity-greeter? if it is lightdm-kde greeter instead there is bug 1237684 | 21:19 |

| nbursh | Gentoo I want to install win xp from usb device, I have win 7 installed on my hdd, but I want to install xp on extern hd (connected with usb) | 21:19 |
| Jebus | <wilee-nilee> I am not familiar with uefi but the thing is when I put Ubuntu on I Erased W8 | 21:20 |
| [Gentoo] | nbursh: never tried it so no idea | 21:20 |
| [Gentoo] | not sure what will happen | 21:20 |
| [Gentoo] | if it lets you install XP to that drive it should be fine | 21:21 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, Ah, that can happen, you can get a oem disc set from the manufacturer if you want it back, if you have no backup. Are you sure its gone, or just wont boot? | 21:21 |
| Harmageddon | nbursh: Should work, but you will have to plug in your external drive always in order to boot | 21:21 |
| [Gentoo] | nbursh: i would unplug all other drives to be safe | 21:21 |
| nbursh | Does win xp installer have option where to install launcher? Or it is installing automatically? | 21:21 |
| [Gentoo] | auto | 21:21 |
| wilee-nilee | Jebus, You are on the ubuntu cd now correct? | 21:22 |

| wilee-nilee | Jebus, So just removing W8 and installing ubuntu is not exactly as it used to be as far as a simple install, with a uefi setup is all. You can most likely have what you want if you know how to do it and or someone helps you and the communication is clear as to what you want exactly. | 21:27 |

| wilee-nilee | nightwalkerkg, From a ppa yes, however it is not supported here. | 21:42 |
| supergauntlet | i believe the gnome team has a ppa | 21:42 |

| pfifo | Esor: run, 'sudo update-initramfs' and when its finished reboot | 22:19 |
| koyetsu | stupid question. ubuntu 12.04 LTS 2 NICS eth0 and eth1. eth0 is the inet connected nic dhcp provided ip. eth1 is a static on a seperate switch that has dhcpd bound to it. before setting up eth1 i was able to see the internet, now i cannot. trying to fix that and set routing/forwarding between them. anyone have a good resource they can point me to cause i've not had luck. most say to use the | 22:19 |
| koyetsu | route add command and it didn't work. | 22:19 |
| rmobenchain | Is there a ubuntu forum to help with shockwave issues since the upgrade to 13.10? | 22:20 |
| wilee-nilee | rmobenchain, Chrome has built in flash, why the shockwave? | 22:20 |
| Esor | pfifo, thanks I will try. Anyway do you know why after install nvidia-prime chromium looks like was lunched by wine and bunch of error messages? | 22:20 |
| ikonia | koyetsu: sounds like your default route is screwed | 22:20 |
| ResQue | MonkeyDust: hey i tried that nomodest idea of yours yesterday (if you recall the live cd would boot to a blank screen) it sort of fixed the issue i get past the splash screen but i dont get any GUI i can get the the shell though TYY1 any ideas | 22:20 |
| koyetsu | i figured that it's trying to resolve through eth1 | 22:20 |
| ikonia | koyetsu: check the routes to see where traffic should go and where it is going | 22:21 |
| rmobenchain | wilee-niles ... I'm just repeating what I'm being told on sites with shockwave flash. Says "Unable to load plugins" | 22:21 |
| pfifo | Esor: no, havent used a graphic card since my gaming rig died | 22:21 |
| ikonia | koyetsu: the default route will be key | 22:21 |
| Esor | pfifo, I will reboot now | 22:21 |
| koyetsu | when i type route the default line is this "default ubuntu.local 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 eth1" | 22:22 |
| ikonia | kermit: route does not show all routes | 22:22 |
| wilee-nilee | rmobenchain, You may be trying to access sites that just wont work in linux. | 22:23 |
| wilee-nilee | rmobenchain, Any links? | 22:23 |
| rmobenchain | wilee-niles ... would that include the flash test page? | 22:23 |
| ikonia | kermit: ubuntu.local is normally the loopback interface | 22:23 |
| wilee-nilee | rmobenchain, You can tab complete nicks so that they are correct. | 22:23 |
| wheatthin | Hmm | 22:25 |
| koyetsu | the other 2 lines have a * where gateway is. but i know i defined the gateway in my /etc/network/interfaces i'm looking at it now and i have a gateway....errr maybe iu just figured out the problem. would having a gateway defined in both nics cause the problem? | 22:26 |
| ikonia | koyetsu: that would depend on your network, do you need a gateway for both interfaces, I suspect not, I suspect both devices should NOT have a gateway, but your public internet should have a default route assigned to it | 22:27 |

| wolfspy | pfifo, will running within virtualbox work as a linux command line? | 23:03 |
| induz | is it free bekks | 23:03 |
| reisio | wolfspy: yeah, but that sounds involved | 23:03 |
| bekks | induz: Yes. | 23:03 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: ok thats a start, if you have a USB disk handy you can boot debain and use it to put together a liveusb | 23:03 |
| wolfspy | wilee-nilee, Using those instructions, you cannot check the md5 of a disk with windwos | 23:03 |
| bekks | induz: And technically, you already have one, since you have an iPhone. | 23:04 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: I think virtualbox allows access to a physical CDROM | 23:04 |
| induz | it is on UBuntu too or I have to get mackbook or | 23:04 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, I already have a ubuntu installation in virtualbox, can I just use that | 23:04 |
| wilee-nilee | wolfspy, Really, many have. | 23:04 |
| hitsujiTMO | wolfspy: try looking further down the pagew to with checking the md5sum on windows section | 23:04 |
| FroggestSpirit | I need some help here | 23:04 |
| bekks | induz: Without an iTunes account, you cant initialize your iPhone. | 23:04 |
| wolfspy | wilee-nilee, really | 23:04 |
| wtfak1310 | hey | 23:04 |
| wtfak1310 | hey | 23:04 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: fire up your vbox and set the cdrom drive to the physical cdrom, then `md5sum /dev/cdrom` to check the disk(s) | 23:04 |
| induz | bekks within the iTunes on iPhone, how can i use it...the iPhone is not active. It used to be | 23:05 |
| wilee-nilee | wolfspy, use the vm though if you can, but the instructions are there and clear in using windows. | 23:05 |
| FroggestSpirit | does anyone else have an issue with suspend? | 23:05 |
| wolfspy | wtfak1310, hey | 23:05 |
| wtfak1310 | hi wolf | 23:05 |
| hitsujiTMO | !anyone | FroggestSpirit | 23:05 |
| ubottu | FroggestSpirit: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 23:05 |
| wtfak1310 | hey guys, whats the differnce between Suspend, Standby, and Hibernate on Xubuntu? | 23:05 |
| wolfspy | wilee-nilee, im trying to check the md5 of the DISK, not the ISO file | 23:05 |
| bekks | induz: thats really not a subject for this channel. There is #itunes I guess. | 23:05 |
| induz | bekks ok | 23:06 |
| Bauer | guys, in Saucy, it stopped recognizing my Android phone - not mounting as USB drive anymore, while it works in Windows using the same USB cable. any ideas what could be the cause? | 23:06 |
| wilee-nilee | wolfspy, Ah, you loose the ISO? | 23:06 |
| FroggestSpirit | I'm running ubuntu 13.10 on my laptop (toshiba satellite) and the 64-bit version. When I close the lid, it suspends, then after opening it, the fan turns off. | 23:06 |
| reisio | wtfak1310: it depends on what your hardware thinks those are | 23:06 |
| reisio | wtfak1310: you basically have to use trial and error | 23:06 |
| FroggestSpirit | after about a minute, the fan turns on full blast, and it no longer suspends when closing the lid. | 23:07 |
| wolfspy | wilee-nilee, I want to make sure it was written correctly | 23:07 |
| wilee-nilee | wolfspy, Sorry to interject you have plenty of help. ;) | 23:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | wolfspy: ahh in that case: http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/ | 23:07 |
| wtfak1310 | i see, well its wierd in power manager, On AC it has option to Hibernate, On Battery it doesnt | 23:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | FroggestSpirit: can you pastebin your dmesg and syslog from after the initial suspension | 23:09 |
| pfifo | wtfak1310: ubuntu has basically dropped all support for hibernation, xubuntu and lubuntu still show the options though. | 23:09 |
| wtfak1310 | thanks | 23:09 |
| FroggestSpirit | hitsujiTMO: How do I do that? I'm on windows right now, so I'll have to reboot | 23:09 |
| bekks | pfifo: Thats nonsense. | 23:09 |
| bekks | pfifo: Ubuntu hasnt dropped support for that. | 23:10 |
| wolfspy | umm, how do I cd to the cdrom with terminal | 23:10 |
| wtfak1310 | Does anyone have issues with remapping keys in 13.10? I'm using the settings Editor isntead of keyboars shortcuts, and it's not too straight forward | 23:10 |
| wolfspy | I can go to it in natalius, so it's mounted | 23:11 |
| pfifo | bekks: well its disabled by default (though still supported of course) | 23:11 |
| hitsujiTMO | FroggestSpirit: install pastebinit and you can grab them easily then. sudo apt-get install pastebinit && dmesg | pastebinit && sudo pastebinit /var/log/syslog | 23:11 |
| bekks | pfifo: Thats far from "dropped support". | 23:11 |
| pfifo | basicly dropped support | 23:11 |
| hitsujiTMO | pfifo: its disabled by defualt ONLY if you have non certified hardware | 23:11 |
| bekks | pfifo: Not even partially. "disabled by default on non certified hardware" still means "fully supported". | 23:12 |
| FroggestSpirit | hitsujiTMO: I have to reboot into ubuntu now, but if it's just a file, i could navigate to it, and paste the contents | 23:12 |
| pfifo | bekks: ok whatever | 23:12 |
| wolfspy | umm, how do I cd to the cdrom with terminal | 23:13 |
| hitsujiTMO | FroggestSpirit: you will need to do it after you suspend and come back. its 2 things a file /var/log/syslog and the output of the command dmesg | 23:13 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: it must be mounted first, but you dont need todo that to run an md5sum | 23:13 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, it says you need to be in the same directory as the md5sum.txt file on the cd rom | 23:13 |
| wolfspy | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 23:14 |
| wtfak1310 | anyones amixer not work right? amixer -q set Master toggle | 23:14 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, when I type cd /cdrom, it works, but after that when I type ls it dosen';t show any files | 23:14 |
| wtfak1310 | doesnt toggle, lol | 23:14 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: do this instead 'md5sum /dev/cdrom' | 23:14 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, thanks, I assume it will take a while | 23:15 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: its not that big, but youll have to wait a min | 23:16 |

| duhamel | hello all, I am wondering how to change a folders icon and make it stick, even from one ubuntu machine to another. | 23:16 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, it will probably take longer, bacause of virtualbox | 23:17 |
| wolfspy | lol, just finished | 23:18 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, do I just compare the md5sums manually? | 23:18 |
| duhamel | is there a script similar to windows autorun.inf i could run that would tell ubuntu to use an icon on a thumbdrive as the icon for that thumbdrive | 23:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | wolfspy: just compare the first 8 digits, that should be enough | 23:18 |
| kyloth | hey guys would this be the right channel to ask questions about an external hdd i just got. its a 218 toshiba laptop drive and i got the sata converter, its mid format right now, but what i wanted to ask about was.... | 23:18 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: wait, im looking at that document, and it brought up a good point, the md5sum produced from that wont match anyway | 23:18 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, oh | 23:19 |
| Richhh | sorry if off-topic, just installed lubuntu (hoorah!) and vim, cant switch modes in vim, its entering ^[ when i press c-[ or esc | 23:19 |
| kyloth | if anyone could help me partiion it to run a 90gig windows xp partition alongside 2 linux partitions one fedora one ubuntu | 23:19 |
| kyloth | ive ran dual boots before but never from an external hdd and never more than 2 os simultanious | 23:19 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: you need to 'sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom' to follow the instructions to check the files on the cd | 23:20 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, is it bad if they do match, bacause they do | 23:20 |
| duhamel | kyloth: install windows xp on the harddrive then install ubuntu on it. | 23:20 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: it say 'will almost never match' | 23:20 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, well, I guess this is a rare occasion | 23:21 |
| kyloth | if i install windows first will it auto make the partition for all 200ggis tho and will ubuntu's gparted have what i need to run xp and fedora alongside it | 23:21 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: so the md5sum of /dev/cdrom matches the md5 of the iso and matche the one listed in the downloads page? | 23:21 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, yep | 23:21 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: and you get the error posted in the imagebin? | 23:21 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, yes | 23:22 |
| duhamel | kyloth: yeah, when running the live linux shrink the windows os partition with gparted. | 23:22 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: can you boot the vm with that CD? | 23:22 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, ill try | 23:22 |
| wildwind | kyloth: xp installation allows you to select/create partitions. also you can partition the drive as needed beforehand | 23:22 |
| kyloth | if windows is installed before linux and then i install ubuntu and use gparted to shrink the windows side couldent i possibly damage my windows os? | 23:23 |
| vr2mx | hello | 23:23 |
| kyloth | thanks wildwind that was my biggest worry | 23:23 |
| keber | how to see channel list? | 23:23 |
| duhamel | kyloth: then when installing linux choose the"something different" option and partiytion the unallocated space with for your install. | 23:23 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, nope, because I dont have the right values for virtualizing amd64 in my bios | 23:23 |
| kyloth | next question, can i install these os's to this hdd without booting the system im using from the hdd | 23:23 |
| pfifo | !alis | keber | 23:23 |
| ubottu | keber: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 23:23 |
| kyloth | thanks soo much for the help guys | 23:24 |
| kyloth | like i said ive ran dual boots before and ive imaged systems before just never more than 2 os's at a time and never on an external drive | 23:24 |
| Bauer | guys, in Saucy, it stopped recognizing my Android phone - not mounting as USB drive anymore, while it works in Windows using the same USB cable. any ideas what could be the cause? | 23:24 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: ok, does it always fail to read that same sector 0x69c00 | 23:25 |
| duhamel | kyloth: are you implying you have an os on the machine and then the two os on the hdd? if so you can select from bootmenu or bios which will boot. | 23:25 |
| wilee-nilee | kyloth, What windows release? | 23:25 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, yes, and it happens with mint too | 23:25 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: are you using BIOS or UEFI? | 23:25 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, bios | 23:25 |
| Kuwait | wilee-nilee , will i try it , same nothing happen | 23:25 |
| wildwind | kyloth: plan all your partitions, make them with gparted, install win, install others | 23:25 |
| kyloth | im using ym friends computer which is running windows 7 to image my external hdd i dont want to risk damaging anything on her system while doing this to my drive | 23:25 |
| kyloth | thanks wildwind | 23:25 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: is this a usb, pata or sata drive? | 23:25 |
| wilee-nilee | Kuwait, You save the bootinfo summary? | 23:26 |
| kyloth | its a 218 toshiba laptop hdd inside of a 2.5in sata to usb converter casing | 23:26 |
| wilee-nilee | kyloth, Use the windows partitioner to resize it. | 23:26 |
| duhamel | kyloth: maybe use a live distro on usb to do all the partitioning so that you can easily see exactly whaT IS GOING ON WITH THE PARTITIONS. | 23:26 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, how do you check? | 23:26 |
| kyloth | the sata converter just came in the mail today so im also kinda excited to use this | 23:26 |

| wolfspy | zykotick9, im not in linux | 23:28 |
| kyloth | duhamel i was attempting to install these os's to my hdd without turning my hdd into a live boot disk unless neccessary. i have a live boot tyhumb drive but i have all three os's already downloaded to my friends system and unetbootin | 23:28 |

| Cheekio | @wilee-nilee: "This experiment was performed in the college campus and the gateway 10.10.6.2 was located between the Switch and Host A." | 23:28 |
| kyloth | and how do i highlight the names of the people im talking to so im not just sending black text | 23:28 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: well if its usb it would be external and plugged into a usb port, otherwise on bootup youll see it listed when your bios detectes it and it will sat pata or sata... also its impossible for it to be an sata drive if your computer dosent support sata so :) | 23:28 |
| wilee-nilee | Cheekio, That's in a reply. | 23:29 |
| kyloth | wolfspy... its a laptop hdd that was pulled from a broken motherboard. the hdd still works fine. i went online and spent 10 bucks on a sata to usb converter cable and casing for it. now im running it as a portable usb hdd | 23:29 |
| duhamel | kyloth: i understand, and that shopuldn't be a problem. i just find it much easier to deal with partitions and stuff from a live linux. | 23:29 |
| Cheekio | Yeah, but the lack of documentation on what 10.10.1.2 is vs 192.168.1.8 obfuscates the whole article | 23:29 |
| Cheekio | is 192.168.1.8 the external address of the host? | 23:30 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, its sata | 23:30 |
| Cheekio | It's obviously not an address registered with any DNS I know of | 23:30 |

| duhamel | install to the hdd as any normal install with the windows install first then the Linux install | 23:30 |

| duhamel | hello all, I am wondering how to change a folders icon and make it stick, even from one ubuntu machine to another. | 23:31 |
| kyloth | i agree duhamel thats why i was confused when i was told to put windows on it first i figured gparted would be what i needed i jsut wanted to make sure i wasnt going have have any unforseen kinks because ive never done more than 2 os's on one hdd before and this one i wanted to try three os's that i can boot from as i wish regardless of who's system i am plugged into | 23:31 |
| duhamel | is there a script similar to windows autorun.inf i could run that would tell ubuntu to use an icon on a thumbdrive as the icon for that thumbdrive | 23:31 |
| Cheekio | wilee-nilee, I'm not saying the task should be easier, I'm saying isn't it great when articles don't include necessary information | 23:31 |
| duhamel | Kyloth. the xternal hdd will only work on the mavchine they were install with. they will not work from | 23:32 |

| Lockzi | Hello - Is it possible to mount an NFS share and have it "fake" uid and gid that's stored on the server since that the client and user does not have the same information? | 23:32 |
| wilee-nilee | Cheekio, Heh, a random article, and your complaining, its the web man. ;) | 23:32 |
| kyloth | my uncle boots his os on other peoples machines all the time, he doesnt even own a computer he just has a hard drive that he boots from | 23:32 |
| pfifo | wolfspy: I think you should try booting with 'waitusb=10' in you kernel arguments | 23:32 |
| duhamel | kyloth: only live distros work from machine to machine. | 23:32 |
| kyloth | ill remember that duhamel | 23:33 |
| wolfspy | pfifo, How do you do that | 23:33 |
| duhamel | kyloth: not windows. once it is installed it only works on that hardware | 23:33 |

| wilee-nilee | duhamel, Not sure to be honest, to link an icon to what I assume is a bash if this is linux, sorry. | 23:49 |
| FroggestSpirit | Who was helping me with the suspend issue? I paste bin'ed the log | 23:49 |
| zykotick9 | FroggestSpirit: you need to give the helper/channel the link to your paste! | 23:49 |
| jimgroth | pfifo, thanks. Glad it was that easy. :) | 23:49 |
| duhamel | wilee-nilee: even if i could just change the folder icon and have it stick that would be cool. | 23:49 |
| FroggestSpirit | zykotick9: helper/channel? | 23:50 |
| jimgroth | wouldn't have thought to log in via ssh since local didn't work | 23:50 |
| zykotick9 | FroggestSpirit: the person who was helping your / or this channel. | 23:50 |
| wildwind | duhamel: check this http://askubuntu.com/questions/183097/where-is-nautilus-icon-file-located-and-how-is-it-chosen | 23:51 |
| FroggestSpirit | i dont remember the name | 23:51 |

| Cheekio | @wildwind, as long as it can tell this raspberrypi connected to my ethernet port that it has an ip address, and then allow me to send ssh commands over that cable, I'll be good. | 23:51 |
| wilee-nilee | duhamel, Right click folder properties then click the folder icon to change it, but having it run not sure, unless just clicking it runs it. | 23:51 |
| zykotick9 | FroggestSpirit: so just post the link then, and hope for the best. | 23:51 |
| FroggestSpirit | http://hastebin.com/xedajakoci.coffee | 23:51 |
| zykotick9 | is hastebin.com an actual site? | 23:51 |
| FroggestSpirit | yes | 23:52 |
| wildwind | Cheekio: doesn't it have a default ip address? | 23:52 |
| duhamel | wilee-nilee: yeah that only works until nautilus resets. after reboot the icon is a blank sheet. i have put the icon in the root of folder as a hidden file. | 23:53 |
| Cheekio | No, it's not connected to a network | 23:53 |
| Danato | what would be the equivalent of /etc/kde4/kdm on xubuntu? | 23:53 |
| Kuwait | after install ubuntu with pre installed windows 8 , no bootloader , info: windows 8.1 , ubuntu 13.10 both 64 bit | 23:53 |
| Cheekio | It's basically alone in the world waiting to be told what to do | 23:53 |
| Cheekio | the only computer it can talk to is my laptop. | 23:53 |
| SlutaTramsa | zykotick9: That kinda worked, but only with gnome flashback. When I try to login with xfce it all get white. Any idea on that? | 23:53 |
| wilee-nilee | duhamel, Yeah does not stay the same across computers with the icons as well, not really an area I at all familiar with. | 23:53 |
| PDilyard | is/was anyone else getting slow menu bar performance in ubuntu 13.10 with unity? (im talking about File, Edit, etc) | 23:53 |
| wilee-nilee | I'm* | 23:53 |
| Cheekio | It's probably been waiting this whole time for my laptop to assign it an ip address | 23:54 |
| zykotick9 | SlutaTramsa: sorry, no clue. best of luck. | 23:54 |
| Kuwait | wilee-nilee yes nothing happen :( | 23:54 |
| Cheekio | but my laptop is also looking to get an IP address for its ethernet port. | 23:54 |
| SlutaTramsa | zykotick9: Alright, thanks | 23:54 |
| SlutaTramsa | Anyone else here with a clue? | 23:54 |
| wildwind | Cheekio: what firmware is on pi? | 23:54 |
| Cheekio | I mean, if you plug two computers together via ethernet, they don't just start talking, do they? | 23:54 |
| Cheekio | wildwind: raspbian | 23:54 |
| wilee-nilee | Kuwait, That bootinfo summary is the key for many to actually diagnose the problem. | 23:54 |
| FroggestSpirit | zykotick9: any idea why suspend isnt working after? | 23:54 |
| duhamel | wilee-nilee: that's okay. you have helped me out many times. thanks anyway. | 23:55 |
| wolfspy_ | pfifo: do I add another boot value in another line m | 23:55 |
| zykotick9 | FroggestSpirit: suspend or hybernate? either way, no i don't... best of luck. | 23:55 |
| Cheekio | I don't know if that's the firmware. I got the most recent NOOBS and installed raspbian via its bootstrapper | 23:55 |
| FroggestSpirit | suspend | 23:55 |
| zykotick9 | FroggestSpirit: suspend has a MUCH high chance of working BTW | 23:55 |
| Danato | can anybody tell what would be the equivalent of /etc/kde4/kdm on xubuntu? | 23:56 |
| pfifo | wolfspy_: no, the line that starts with 'kernel' ends with -- (its likely split over several lines) just tack on a usbwait=10 after the -- | 23:56 |
| wildwind | Cheekio: on low ethernet level they do. but on ip level and higher not | 23:56 |
| pfifo | wolfspy_: then ctrl+x to boot | 23:56 |
| FroggestSpirit | well, suspend works the first time when i boot ubuntu and close the lid. then after logging back in after opening the lid, my fan goes silent, and then goes full blast after a minute, and closing the lid doesnt suspend anymore until i reboot | 23:57 |
| zykotick9 | wildwind: does ubuntu even run on the pi? | 23:57 |
| wildwind | Ubuntu not AFAIK | 23:57 |
| zykotick9 | wildwind: so, why are you supporting it in #ubuntu then? | 23:57 |
| wolfspy_ | pfifo: same error | 23:58 |
| Cheekio | He's not supporting the pi | 23:58 |
| wildwind | i'm not, just curious | 23:58 |
| Cheekio | I'm trying to get my ubuntu laptop to do something, well within the bounds of what ubuntu can do. | 23:58 |
| Cheekio | zykotick9, read the logs if you want to know what's being discussed. | 23:59 |
