Jordan_USamuraiDio: Because wine (outside of the still in development 64 bit port) is 32 bit only.00:00
reardengeekmasterflash: could this be because I chose to encrypt the disk the last time I installed Ubuntu to it?00:00
Beldard----, xcaht is an app, you have to set it up.00:00
geekmasterflashrearden: Possible, but unlikely. Even if it's encrypted the drive should be visable00:00
Jordan_Urearden: No. Encrypting a drive doesn't prevent it from being listed in such tools.00:00
esded----, click on Opera in the top left, then Settings > preferernces00:01
geekmasterflashrearden: What confuses me is that when you booted from your external it appeared you had another drive00:01
esdeprograms in the left column00:01
domino14massive elasticsearch log files00:01
domino14wtf00:01
reardengeekmasterflash: is there any way to just wipe the disc from a boot menu? I don't need anything on it00:01
d----okay let me do that now00:01
geekmasterflashrearden: Not if the disc doesn't show up00:01
esded----, what irc client do you have currently installed?00:01
wafflejockTabletdomino14: well there's your problem00:01
d----xchat00:01
domino14thanks for letting me know about ncdu, it's fantastic00:02
wafflejockTabletdomino14: np00:02
d----esde: I don't see programs in the left hand column00:02
geekmasterflashrearden: Alright, lets try this one last time00:02
reardengeekmasterflash: it shows up in my boot menu, but only as "ubuntu"00:02
d----i see it sorry00:02
geekmasterflashrearden: Boot back into your external and try parted -l there00:02
d----in advanced00:02
Jordan_Urearden: That's not the disk showing up, that's a UEFI boot entry showing up.00:02
geekmasterflashrearden: Tell me if you have two drives listed then00:02
reardenok, be back in a minute00:03
Jordan_Urearden: You can use efibootmgr to remove UEFI boot entries.00:03
Beldardomino14, please be aware of the channels rules on swearing. ;)00:03
eddie_Beldar: Hi00:03
domino14where di i swaer? sorry00:03
eddie_i have installed Ubuntu in a system00:03
eddie_which had Windiws00:03
Beldardomino14, an acronym 16:01:2200:04
domino14that's not a swear00:04
eddie_Now only windows is working. How do i install Grub2 from Windows?00:04
Beldardomino14, It is here. ;)00:04
domino14what's the fuss?00:04
bekkseddie_: You cant. You need to use a linux live cd.00:04
domino14that's a swear?00:04
d----esde: i set the program for irc:// to xchat sadly all it does it open xchat... maybe irc://$server:$port ?:P00:05
wafflejockTabletdomino14: k4dirstat is a real nice GUI one, gives a visual graph of the disk making it easy to identify the parts not good for remote or if totally strapped for space00:05
Beldardomino14, I have asked you nicely, it is just the channel rules, no swear words or acronyms of.00:05
eddie_What if i erase windows and install Ubuntu?00:05
bekkseddie_: Then you wont have a dualboot anymore and you need an install cd too. So just use that install cd to repair your grub.00:06
esded----, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser#Protocol_integration_with_KDE00:06
wafflejockTableteddie_: look up grub boot repair00:06
eddie_i needed ubuntu today. Where do i get the CD from? :(00:06
domino14i didn't say an acronym of as wear00:06
wafflejockTabletUbuntu.com00:06
xanguaeddie_: ubuntu no longer fits on a CD00:07
domino14i said why these files00:07
rearden_geekmasterflash: ok, it appears with parted -l00:07
wafflejockTabletHehe00:07
domino14why they're so big?00:07
esdeopera -newmail "%s" < - you may be right00:07
bekkseddie_: how did you install ubuntu, and when?00:07
geekmasterflashrearden_: Pastebin it for me please00:07
eddie_I installed it today from USB00:07
bekksdomino14: Because it doesnt matter anymore, since dvd media are even cheaper than cd media nowadays.00:07
esdedon't know what variable is which value though00:07
bekkseddie_: Then boot that usb again...00:07
eddie_Guys i am a programmer and need to finish a work today :(00:07
domino14elasticsearch/graylog are a nightmare00:07
esdeeddie_, sup00:08
Beldardomino14, You wanting to argue is surprising this is straight forward stuff, that is a acronym of 3 distinctive words, it is not allowed here.00:08
domino14acronyms could stand for anything00:08
domino14i was talking about my FILES00:08
eddie_yes i did00:08
rearden_geekmasterflash: http://pastebin.com/C1NVEP9f00:08
eddie_its again asking for ubuntu installation00:08
bekkseddie_: And then follow !grub2 to repaur your grub.00:08
Roryeddie_: Instead, choose "Try Ubuntu" instead of "Install ubuntu"00:08
Beldardomino14, Ah, okay and I have a bridge for sale, lol.00:08
bekkseddie_: dont install, just try out.00:08
domino14i set up a backup drive for elasticsearch with 300 G, somehow i was saving too many indices and it overran that hard drive, so then elasticsearch started failing and destroyed my main drive with it's stupid multi-gigabyte logs00:09
rearden_geekmasterflash: the tough drive is my thumb drive, and the seagate freeagent is my external00:09
domino14i was saying why are these files so big00:09
domino14sorry, english is not first language00:09
geekmasterflashrearden_: So.. I don't see any other drive00:09
bekksdomino14: because their content exceeds your space limits.00:09
geekmasterflashrearden_: Wait, I am blind00:09
domino14yeah, i got that now00:10
rearden_geekmasterflash: what is that last one pertaining to?00:10
domino14thanks for your help00:10
rearden_geekmasterflash: lol, really scared me there00:10
domino14ncdu is cool00:10
wafflejockTabletNp00:10
domino14my whole drive was fubar00:10
domino14totally fouled up00:10
wafflejockTabletIt is nice bailed me out on my nas a few times00:11
bekksdomino14: it wasnt. it was just filled up with logs, which could have been deleted.00:11
domino14elasticsearch shoudlnt default to creating 10-gigabyte logs when stuff starts messing up :(00:11
bekksdomino14: I guess thats configurable.00:11
Beldardomino14,This is a worldwide channel spanning many cultural and ethnic groups, and is a family channel, does that make sense as to why there are theses limitations.00:11
geekmasterflashrearden_: Bad new00:12
geekmasterflashrearden_: That's the "loop00:12
geekmasterflashrearden_: Which is not a disc00:12
geekmasterflashrearden_: But a way to mount00:13
geekmasterflashrearden_: All that is, is your external again00:13
rearden_geekmasterflash: so, probably have a solid 1,000 gigs of brick in my desktop then00:13
geekmasterflashrearden_: Looks that way. Make sure it's plugged in right is all I can say00:14
bekksrearden_: What happened to your disk?00:14
geekmasterflashrearden_: Otherwise, I am all out of ideas00:14
rearden_geekmasterflash: well, thanks anyway. you have put a lot of effort into helping me and I appreciate it00:14
rearden_bekks: i'm not really sure. it seems to have vanished00:15
domino14i think there are like 150 curse words in the linux kernel00:15
wafflejockTabletU guys tried sudo fdisk -l from a live disk and not seeing it?00:15
bekksrearden_: Can you still see it?00:15
rearden_bekks: doesn't appear that way00:16
bekksrearden_: So even looking at it, physically, you dont see it anymore?00:16
wafflejockTabletMagic00:16
geekmasterflashbekks: Are you asking if it was stolen by ninja?00:17
bekksgeekmasterflash: I am just doubting that it vanished.00:17
rearden_bekks: lol, i mean, the drive exists in a pysical sense. just not a computer recognizing it sense00:17
rearden_pastebin for fdisk comman00:17
rearden_http://pastebin.com/WjGAd2z800:17
bekksrearden_: So is it an external drive?00:17
rearden_bekks: no, i have ubuntu on an external currently, but my internal HDD has vanished00:17
=== AustinRon_ is now known as AustinRon
Roryrearden_: Can you see it in palimpsest ?00:18
Beldarrearden_, Since the external does boot ubuntu, have you run sudo update-grub there?00:18
bekksrearden_: read line 11.00:18
Roryrearden_: That's often a bit easier to poke around in if you don't know exactly what you're looking for00:18
rearden_Rory: i don't know how to access that00:19
rearden_Beldar: I have not, what would that do? I'm still very much a newbie00:19
Roryrearden_: type it and press Enter, or search for "disk" in the dash, I think it's called "disks" or "disk utility" there00:19
bekksrearden_: so whats that sda, with 8GB?00:19
rearden_bekks: my thumb drive for liveCd00:20
rearden_Rory: I found that, I don't know if I have the right drive though00:20
Beldarrearden_, That runs the grub bootloaders os-prober, finding other OS. It does seem that the internal is not being seen, but one never knows. people do miscommunicate here.00:21
bekksrearden_: So did you turn off your computer and doublechecked all the cabling and all connectors?00:21
rearden_bekks: yeah, i've tried it00:21
bekksrearden_: Did you try using another cabling or connector?00:22
rearden_bekks: I don't have any other ones00:22
rearden_Rory: How can I tell if the disk I am looking at is the one I am currently using?00:23
geekmasterflashAnyone here have any clue what could be causing this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/125378900:26
ubottuUbuntu bug 1253789 in Ubuntu GNOME "USB shuts off on GDM initialization" [Undecided,New]00:26
tripelb12.04 Gnome-classic:that windshieldwipertrace shaped thing that gets parellel lines on in when I am connected to a network, ie the connectivity-icon in the PANEL has vanished and I want it back, please.00:26
Roryrearden_: Currently using? You should boot from a liveUSB for this probably00:26
reisiogeekmasterflash: shuts off?00:26
geekmasterflashreisio: Aye, I can actually watch the ifrared on my mouse go dead00:27
reisiogeekmasterflash: if it were infrared, you couldn't :p00:27
reisiobut I know what you mean00:27
rearden_Rory: ok00:27
geekmasterflashreisio: err, whatever the red light is, probably laser then00:27
geekmasterflash:P00:27
reisio:)00:27
reisiogeekmasterflash: have you tried another DM?00:28
geekmasterflashreisio: Yes, the same thing happens.00:28
reisiogeekmasterflash: okay, have you tried starting X without a DM?00:28
Danatohey is there a minimize button like the windows button on windows?00:29
geekmasterflashreisio: Can't say I have. Typically the DM loads before I ever get the chance to switch00:29
geekmasterflashreisio: Downside of an SSD I guess00:29
Danatoit doesnt have to be "a" button, but it can be a combo of buttons00:30
paberlancehey there! Can anyone help me? I screewed my displaymanager on ubuntu00:31
geekmasterflashpaberlance: How?00:32
syntroPiHow would i set the default tx power of my wlan (ie. "iwconfig wlan1 txpower 10") so it will be 10 on every startup/connect/reconnect?00:32
wafflejockTabletsyntroPi: probably want to add it to ~/.bashrc00:33
syntroPinot on login but on startup or usb connect00:33
paberlancei reconfigured the dpkg packages and now when i boot it starts to a clean desktop withot anything but my curser00:33
wafflejockTabletsyntroPi: possibly looking at /etc/init then not sure though00:34
geekmasterflashpaberlance: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm00:34
wafflejockTablet!upstart00:34
ubottuUpstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/00:34
geekmasterflashpaberlance: pressing cntl+alt+f6 or super+alt+f6 should drop you to command prompt00:35
geekmasterflashpaberlance: I can never remember which00:35
syntroPiwafflejockTablet, i think ubuntu uses network manager per default, just not sure where it takes the params for max txpower (100mW or 20dbm is unnecessary loud in my setup). Maybe from locale and driver, not sure though00:35
geekmasterflashpaberlance: Then put in that command, and reboot00:35
geekmasterflashpaberlance: That should, hopefully allow you to boot into you DM00:36
paberlanceok, i will reboot and tell you if it worked! stay here to tip you some bitcoins ;)00:37
wafflejockTabletsyntroPi: http://askubuntu.com/questions/74840/where-are-the-network-manager-configuration-files00:37
geekmasterflashpaberlance: I don't want any money, I am just glad to help. Though, if you are dead set on give money to someone for help I recommend donating to Ubuntu or Red Cross.00:38

GlydeHmm, second display still not working, it's 3rd gen integrated intel graphics, 2500. Splash screen on boot and shutdown display on it fine though.00:40
Danatodoes windows button alone have any function at all on kde?00:40
Danatoi dont see anything changing or moving00:40
gregor3005hi, i encrypted one partition which holds data and added it to cryptab. during reboot ubuntu don't asked me for a password, i can only click "s" for skip00:40
geekmasterflashGlyde: Can you pastebin your xorg.conf (if you have one?)00:40
Glydewhere can I find it?00:40
geekmasterflashGlyde: /etc/X11/xorg.conf00:41
wafflejockTabletDanato: no there's some scripts to make it the launcher key00:41
wafflejockTabletKsuperkey I think it was called,00:42
wafflejockTabletalso a bug for mapping numpad keys so have to use an xbindkeys workaround00:42
Glydehere you are, seems to only contain my first monitor's info though http://pastebin.com/Nt8fqPy300:43
geekmasterflashGlyde: Sounds like that might be the problem then.00:43
DanatowafflejockTablet: thanks, I jst wanted to make sure before i binded it to minimize windows00:43
Glydeso, what can I do about it?00:43
wafflejockTabletDanato: don't think u can just use winkey its seen as a modifier00:43
paberlancewell didn't work00:44
wafflejockTabletThe numpads issue has to do with qt implementation mapping those as numbers instead of numpad apparently, but not easily fixable00:44
wafflejockTabletWithout xbindkeys that is00:45
geekmasterflashGlyde: well, I am not sure how intel handles multiple monitors, but you are going to probably want to define the second monitor and a "screen" section that will allow you to display both. May also require xinerama (even though it;'s ancient)00:45
GlydeWell the intel card only handles the second monitor, an ATI card handles the first00:46
geekmasterflashGlyde: I don't use intel cards, so I can't give you specifics, but I recommend some google-fu on the (video card model here)+xorg+dual monitor00:46
geekmasterflashGlyde: Ah, two cross brand models. you're probably going to HAVE to use xinerama if you want a seemless desktop00:46
geekmasterflashpaberlance: What happened this time, the same thing?00:46
Glydeyeah, new ATI cards don't have VGA, and that's all my second monitor accepts00:47
paberlanceyes, same thing00:47
geekmasterflashpaberlance: What desktop environment do you use?00:47
GlydeI'll look into xinerama then00:47
paberlanceubuntu unity00:47
paberlance13.1000:47
geekmasterflashpaberlance: I'd drop to command line, remove unity and lightdm, then reinstall both00:48
geekmasterflashpaberlance: then dpkg reconfigure lightdm00:48
geekmasterflashpaberlance: reboot, and hope.00:49
geekmasterflashpaberlance: If that fails, it could be that somehow root owns .Xauthority00:49
paberlanceso i do sudo apt-get remove lightdm unity00:50
geekmasterflashpaberlance: So it might be worth deleting /home/(user)/.Xauthority before reboot as well.00:50
Beldarunity is a plugin in compiz running in the ubuntu desktop meat package set00:50
Beldarmeta*00:51
geekmasterflashpaberlance: I think unity is just a meta package00:51
geekmasterflashpaberlance: What beldar said.00:51
Beldarremoving it will not remove it per-say00:51
Mage_DudeAny examples of valid files for ssh-keyscan -f <some.file>? No examples seem to exist and the recommended structure in the docs doesn't generate the correct information00:53
paberlanceso i remove compiz as well? By now i deleted the .Xauthority and did an apt-get remove lightdm00:54
geekmasterflashpaberlance: I don't use unity so I am not sure the package name, but try apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop ?00:54
geekmasterflashwithout the ?00:54
Beldarpaberlance, I would try this and then reboot. http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2013/08/reset-unity-and-compiz-in-ubuntu-13-10/00:54
pgar231test00:55
Beldarpaberlance, Your basic info on the cause has no real cause and effect in any exacting manner.00:56
paberlanceok now just reboot? don't i have to reinstall the things first?00:57
geekmasterflashpaberlance: Reinstall first00:57
paberlanceor for me ANY displaymanager is fine00:58
geekmasterflashpaberlance: Otherwise you wont have a DM or DE to boot into00:58
paberlancewhat do you use, or suggest?00:58
geekmasterflashpaberlance: Reinstall, then dpkg-reconfigure lightdm00:58
geekmasterflashpaberlance: I use gdm and gnome00:58
paberlanceto isntall that i have to "sudo apt-get install gdm gnome"?00:59
geekmasterflashpaberlance: If you want use gnome and gdm, sure.00:59
reek007I just updated my system, and my firefox is no longer working.01:01
reek007can someone help, im running 12.0401:01
GlydeCan't seem to make sense of Xorg.conf, what do I need to do to add my second video card to it?01:03
geekmasterflashGlyde: So keep in mind I can only give you general pointers with xorg, I have only ever used nvidia cards so I really only know how to make them go01:04
geekmasterflashGlyde: But basically01:04
geekmasterflashGlyde: You need to define two device entries. One for each card01:04
geekmasterflashGlyde: If you look in your current xorg.conf you should see at least one of them01:05
=== LoganG is now known as LoganG|off
geekmasterflashGlyde: That that should tell you the card, the model, the driver, and other options for the device01:05
geekmasterflashGlyde: You'll need to define another device for your other card01:05
Glydeso do I need to make another device section? or add onto the old one?01:05
geekmasterflashGlyde: Another device section01:05
GlydeAlright, and where do I get the information to put in it?01:06
geekmasterflashGlyde: Google is your friend here. There are usually many xorg.conf examples out there. There is bound to be one for the card you have01:07
geekmasterflashGlyde: You'll also want to make sure you install the drivers for your other card, since you will have to define the driver in the xorg.conf01:07
geekmasterflashGlyde: And if the driver doesnt exist, then you'll be in trouble.01:08
Glydethe intel site just redirected me to 01.org, the installer there didn't seem to do anything01:09
geekmasterflashGlyde: So the intel card is the one that is not defined already?01:10
Glydeyeah01:10
Glydeit's the one that comes with i5s, so not exactly uncommon01:10
geekmasterflashGlyde: I know next to nothing about intel drivers, so I am not sure I can help you there. I do see that 01.org has .deb installers01:12
geekmasterflashGlyde: Did you use one of those?01:12
varunendraGlyde, which i5? 3rd gen?01:13
geekmasterflashGlyde: And did you try sudo apt-get install intel-linux-graphics-installe01:13
geekmasterflashGlyde: And did you try sudo apt-get install intel-linux-graphics-installer*01:13

WhitephoenixUhm Hi there...01:14
WhitephoenixI having a problem installing ubuntu01:14
crocketI want to tether my iphone 4 running iOS 7 via USB to my ubuntu machine.01:14
crocketIs it possible?01:14
Glydeyeah it's third gen01:14
geekmasterflashWhitephoenix: Care to be more specific?01:14
Glydeoh, I didn't know about that, I'll try it now01:14
WhitephoenixIndeed. Check it out: http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f64/urgent-ubuntu-install-partitioning-help-751649.html#post451888101:15
Glydesays the intel linux graphics driver is already installed01:15
geekmasterflashWhitephoenix: Ugh, gpt partitions.01:16
Glydeand I did run that deb, but I didn't see anything change01:16
crocketI'm running ubuntu 13.1001:16
crocketanyone?01:16
geekmasterflashGlyde: Alright, you already have the driver installed then01:16
forevertheuniHi, I was upgrading to saucy and the thing froze(went to sleep when I close the laptop monitor) it was in "installing updates" how can I resume it. I still have the python stuff in my /tmp directory. tnx01:16
geekmasterflashGlyde: So no worries, you need to make the device in xorg.conf01:17
Glydeah ok, just need to find out what goes in it01:17
Whitephoenix...What? Sorry a bit slower this time01:17
geekmasterflashWhitephoenix: If you used gparted, it means you are dealing with a gpt partitioned hard drive01:18
varunendraGlyde, geekmasterflash one way to determine the associated driver with a VGA compatible card is : "lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 vga" - it will show the associated driver (module) at the bottom of the output.01:18
geekmasterflashWhitephoenix: Which can be hell to work with, especially on dualboot01:19
WhitephoenixI partitioned it with the windows thing, just viewing it with GParted01:19
geekmasterflashWhitephoenix: And if you try parted instead01:19
geekmasterflashWhitephoenix: Does it spit out an error01:19
geekmasterflashWhitephoenix: Asking you to use gparted?01:19
Glydevaru, that command only outputs my ATI card01:19
WhitephoenixIt says something about having too many drives that are active if I remember correctly01:20
forevertheuniI did a dpkg --configure -a but the scripts do more than just install in the end...how can I cleanup properly?01:20
varunendraGlyde, does "sudo lshw -C display" show you the other graphics adapter?01:20
Glydeyes it does01:21
nishttal2hello ppl is this the right forum to ask a dual boot question (windows 7 + Ubuntu 13.10) ?01:21
WhitephoenixHopefully because that's what I'm doing01:22
nishttal2I have 2 disks.. sda2 has Ubuntu 13.10 and sdb2 has windows 7.. ..01:22
nishttal2both OSs boot fine when I choose the corresponding disk from the BIOS boot options01:23
varunendraGlyde, I'm not a graphics troubleshooter, but I'd be interested in seeing the output of "lshw -C display" and "lsmod". Please give us its pastebin link01:23

Glydeyeah, trying to get the info to fill it out myself01:30
varunendrageekmasterflash, so is Glyde using a second monitor? I only saw one of his previous messages saying something like VGA is his only option..01:30
Glydeyeah the second monitor is a very old flatscreen with VGA only01:30

minimecHilikus: wilee-nilee: I never looked at my boot log, but isn't there concurrence between 'upstart-udev' and 'systemd-udevd'?01:39
Glydeso can I just copy the other monitor's information and change the identifier to Card1?01:39
Glydeor is there more to it?01:39
geekmasterflashGlyde: You dont want to do that, especially on a VGA device01:40
geekmasterflashGlyde: As you can damage it01:40
paberlanceyea now i cant even boot. /dev /mapper isnt ready01:40
GlydeFair enough01:40
geekmasterflashGlyde: You will need to get the right H-Sync and V-Sync stats for the monitor01:41
geekmasterflashGlyde: As well as supported resolutions01:41

Glydethere isn't a sticker on it, windows knows what it is01:44
Glydeall I can really say01:44
kkkkkkhmmm, thanks reisio01:44
geekmasterflashGlyde: Is it a flatscreen?01:47
Glydeyes01:47
geekmasterflashGlyde: Alright, I guess copy the other monitor second but call it Monitor1 and have it connected to the other grahpics card01:48
geekmasterflashGlyde: Hardly ideal, but without knowing it's make and model we can't safely assume anything01:48
Glydeyeah, it's a dell FPsomething from 200001:48
geekmasterflashGlyde: Please remember that if it blows up, I warned you.01:49
geekmasterflashGlyde: Once you have both cards and monitors defined, you want to define a Screen section that incorporates both01:49
Glydeah found the model, 1700FP01:50
paberlancewhat can i do now?01:50
Glydethe other monitor was set to generic autodetecting monitor though01:51

Glydethose are in quotes right, the other monitor only has Option      "DPMS" "true"01:53

Natalie-5274hi01:59
Natalie-5274Which ones better i4 or i7?01:59
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: I wasn't aware there was an i4.02:00
Natalie-5274I mean i5.02:00
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: i7, in that is has more cores.02:00
Natalie-5274oh ok02:01
Natalie-5274Why would a computer with i5 be more than i7?02:01
impossibleNatalie-5274, you mean the GHZ or price?02:01
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: A number of factors. Maybe it has a better graphics card or motherboard02:01
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: Maybe someone is over charging.02:02
minimecNatalie-5274: I guess i5 vs. i7... Both have 4 cores, but the i7 has 8 threads (2 threads per core). So if you have some virtual machines running, you will 'feel' the power of the i7. Otherwise not really. I have a i5 3570 ivy bridge.02:02
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: Why anything is priced the way it is in consumer electronics... I have no idea.02:02
impossibleare there any actual deals on black friday02:03
impossibleor its not worth waiting02:03
Natalie-5274So its better to get the computer with i7 then02:03
minimecNatalie-5274: Well there are some i5 mobile cpu that only have 2 cores and 4 threads.02:03
reisioNatalie-5274: than what?02:03
k1l_Natalie-5274: for more hardware support try ##hardware02:03
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: Not exactly, it comes down to what you are trying to do with the machine02:03
reisioNatalie-5274: the difference between an i5 and i7 is not going to matter to roughly 500% of the population02:04
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: If you are just gonna browse the internet, both are total overkill.02:04

Natalie-5274can all of that run at the same time though?02:07
reisioNatalie-5274: yes, you'd have to worry more about your ISP / network infrastructure02:07
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: Sure. Make sure you have a decently fast hard drive and lots of memory02:07

k1l_Natalie-5274: mining bitcoins is not effective anymore. just buying them is cheaper.02:09
Natalie-5274how about litecoins then?02:09
reisiolitecoin, heh02:09
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: K1l is right, the amount of power generated trying to mine the coin is usually more than the coin would be worth02:09
Natalie-5274so i7 is probably better02:09
reisiothe litecoin website was down last I saw02:10
Natalie-5274well i have solar panels02:10

Natalie-5274so im off the grid02:11
geekmasterflashNatalie-5274: Their power usage is huge02:11
XFSharddrivecan you help me?02:11

Glydewell, I went from no output to an underscore02:11
Glydeso there's that02:11
Natalie-5274well i dont know why the i7 is cheaper than the i5 but if they're the same then i might as well get the i702:11
minimecNatalie-5274: You would maybe see 15-20% better performance on compiling if you use all threads with the i7. Look at this. Tha would give you some overview on the i5 vs. i7 Ivy bridge. Not a huge difference...02:12
daftykinswhat odd discussions are going on in here tonight02:12

WhitephoenixYou'd be correct02:37
OerHeksWhitephoenix, ubuntu uses ext2/3/4 not an restricted ntfs filesystem02:38

Whitephoenixcan I somehow convert it02:38
Whitephoenix?02:38
BeldarWhitephoenix, This W8 perchance?02:39

pirreti used unetbootin and second time rufus to load ubuntu install files to usb stick02:45
pirretand again both methods did work with debian. any suggestions how to make this work with ubuntu?02:45
BeldarWhitephoenix, personally I would want to more details by having you run a script fro the usb, and an explanation of what you want exactly, you have a ntfs marked recovery there.02:46
WhitephoenixOkay, and I want to install ubuntu on a seperate drive not used by windows02:46
k1l_pirret: ubuntu got hybrid images. easiest way is to dd the desktop.iso onto a usb stick02:46

fixmypc956that part is done03:47
geekmasterflashfixmypc956: Well, the way I would do it is sort of messy...03:47

Ben64pleanbean: he used the wrong nick07:23
xanguapleanbean: sorry, sleepy07:23
pleanbeanOk well this may not be 14.01 specific. I installed Windows 7 on another internal drive and grub isn't showing it in the boot menu07:23
blognewbBen64, woulld you recommend me a firefox browser alternative in ubuntu instead? My main issue is the print bug in firefox :( i want to try if it would print correctly in another browser07:24
Ben64its 14.04, not 14.01, and all support and discussion of it is in #ubuntu+107:24
grahamsavage_ok07:24
Ben64blognewb: chromium is easy to install07:24
geirhablognewb: There's chromium-browser. It's the open source version of google chrome07:24

grahamsavage_has anyone got a hack for unity where i can bring all the windows of a program to the foreground when i click on the interface07:25
Ben64pleanbean: then don't use a pre-alpha release?07:25
grahamsavage_it's driving me friggen crazy07:25
blognewbBen64, is it stable? no bugs/security issues? for 12.04 lts?07:25
blognewbor geirha07:25
pleanbeanI really don't want to have to reinstall and redo all the setup07:25
geirhablognewb: It's in the repos, search for it in the software center07:25
Ben64nothing has "no bugs/security issues"07:25
blognewbgeirha, is it searchable without internet in the software center?07:27
blognewbgeirha, can i run ubuntu via usb stick while im inside win7 or i can only do that by rebooting?07:27
junktext_pleanbean: Have you tried looking up how to add in an OS manually with GRUB?  I've done that stuff before, but I don't remember it off-hand.07:27
geirhablognewb: Oh, your ubuntu machine does not have internet?07:28
junktext_It's usually just a tweak of a GRUB config file, and then an "update-grub" command.07:28
blognewbgeirha, im trying to avoid internet access while inside ubuntu for the moment until i encrypt some of the more sensitive files sir...07:29

styles_Hey my brightness doesn't seem to be working. I checked  in /sys/class/backlight/*; the value seems to be set, but the light isn't dimming07:32
varunendrablognewb, simply updating your software cache and downloading/installing a software from default repositories is absolutely safe. Ubuntu doesn't use internet for anything other than what you ask it to do (except the infamous "Shopping lens" in Unity, which has nothing to do with a software update/install)07:33
* ObrienDave spies an almost full moon ;))07:33
Ben64ObrienDave: would you stop with offtopic comments07:34
junktext_styles_: I have the same issue, but that's because I'm running Linux on a computer that wasn't really put together for Linux.  Odd bugs like this can happen, however, there are workarounds.07:34
blognewbBen64, do you guys know of an ubuntu video series similar to Khan Academy's way of teaching?07:34

Ben64!manual | blognewb don't know what that is, but look at this07:35
ubottublognewb don't know what that is, but look at this: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/07:35
junktext_styles_, for me, I have an NVIDIA graphics card and I am using the NVIDIA driver.  So, I use their software config tool to change it manually.07:35
styles_not a bad idea07:35
junktext_styles_, it's more of a pain, but it works.  Also, the NVIDIA config tool is slightly confusing to navigate, so I just memorized where to go.07:36
blognewbthank you so much, Ben64 i'll check it out07:36
varunendrablognewb, if you insist on an offline installation, try this - Open a terminal (Ctrl-Alt-T) > enter this command : "apt-get install --print-uris chromium-browser". Do you get a detailed output with some download links at the bottom of the output?07:37

varunendrablognewb, it means you need to update the repository which can be done only while being connected to internet. You will also have to make sure that "universe" repository is enabled (you can check it in Software Centre > Edit > Software Sources), which you can do offline, but you may still have to update once more while being online.08:10
ppokuyhhow to set a nas lol?08:11
ppokuyhI have to connect to SSH but I don't understand how with Ip adress08:11
aeon-ltdppokuyh: depends on your requirements08:11

aeon-ltdBen64: i know, but it's most likely for a home network08:14
blognewbvarunendra, did you mean the PPA are those the dependencies08:15
varunendrablognewb, nope, many different libraries and other packages from official repositories. Here's the list from my "apt-cache show chromium-browser" : http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6457409/08:16
ppokuyhaeon-ltd should I replace "port" by something?N08:17
aeon-ltdppokuyh: yeah the port number08:17
ppokuyhaeon-ltd how to find it please?08:17
aeon-ltdppokuyh: well it's in your configs, default is 22 but i'd change that08:17
aeon-ltdppokuyh: you should consult a wiki for how to configure ssh and how to use it08:18
varunendrablognewb, note that these listed packages may have further dependencies, thus creating a labyrinth of packages. Their versions will add further complexity. That's why doing a simple online installation is recommended.08:18

grimetonzetheroo: did you create an fs on top of it?09:53
Wugdo you mean hardware or software raid, and do you mean mounting the whole array, or just one drive in a degraded or failed array09:53

Wugif there was data on it and you made a raid on top of it you're in trouble09:56
grimetonzetheroo: creating the mirror the default (new) way wrote some extra info at the beginning of the partition and destroyed your filesystem's fat09:57
grimetonthe data is gone09:57
grimetonas long as you can't reproduce the first, let's say 500 bytes of that partition09:57

zetherooWug: yes ... I just took those two disks out and replaced them with better ones ... one of which had a copy of the data from the old disks ...10:10
tr0ntry10:10
zetherooWug: I thought it would just rebuild with the new disks10:10
zetheroo:P10:10
Taduro_Can I ask a question here if the Ubuntu I'm using has another desktop?10:10
ObrienDavesure10:11
Wugzetheroo: if you imaged the data from each disk onto the new disks than you'd probably be able to make that work10:12
=== ViniAMeV is now known as foo_
Wugbut it would be better to just hook them up in an empty raid, then copy the data from one to the other10:12
WugRory: it was ~/.config/dconf/user10:13
WugI think10:13
Rory!yay | Wug Interesting that your dconf compiz reset didn't work10:14
ubottuWug Interesting that your dconf compiz reset didn't work: Glad you made it! :-)10:14
Wugyeah idk.10:14
zetherooWug: so what would happen if I replaced just one of the disks in the array at a time ...10:14
Wugzetheroo: why are you so hell bent about doing this the wrongest possible way10:15
Wugthe filesystem exists to keep track of your data10:15
Wuggoing behind its back is a tactic for emergencies only10:15
Wugdo you not have enough sata slots for all of the drives or something?10:15
Wugyou might be able to add the drives to the existing array (assuming it's a raid 1) and then remove the old ones10:16
WugRory: now I just need to figure out what's griping at me whenever I login and breaking badly enough to throw up those "system problem detected" things10:18
Wugguest account doesn't do those.10:18
zetherooWug: 4 slots in the server and all are used10:21
zetherooI just thought there was a way to replace disks in an array and then have the array rebuild ...10:21
Wug1. take something out until you have the raid rebuilt, or 2. get a sata pci card10:22
Wugcrappy ones will run you like $3010:22
Wugif having a really nice raid is important to you, get a dedicated raid card10:22
zetherooWug: can I make the array on another server and then move the disks to the one where I want to replace the disks?10:22
Wugsuch cards do definitely support having drives hotswapped, and can do raids with an obscene number of drives10:23
Wugthere are a bunch of ways you can do it10:23
Wugand that one works fine10:23
Wugyou could even download the data from the old array over the network onto the new array10:23
zetherooI was initially thinking of doing something like this http://www.howtoforge.com/replacing_hard_disks_in_a_raid1_array10:24
Wugon a gigabit network it would be reasonably fast10:24
zetherooWug: yes, I was thinking of moving the data onto the new array over the network10:24
WugI suggest you try following those instructions with image files first to make sure they work they way you want10:24
gregor3005hi, i have a big problem with"update-initramfs" its says allways "nothing to do, exiting." how can i force to generated a new initramfs? i tried all options10:25
Wugjust chuck together a raid 1 of a few 512MB image files10:25
nicolajoin #redturtle whatever10:25
zetherooheh ok10:25
Wugsafer than experimenting on a production raid10:25
zetheroobut maybe it's best altogether to just create a new raid array on our spare server ... :P10:26
ppokuyhhi is it safe to install ubuntu server on a virtual machine*?10:26
Roryppokuyh: what do you mean by "safe"?10:26
zetherooI am just worried that if I do this and move the 2 new array disks into the production server that the array won't mount of something ...10:26
ppokuyhRory, if  it is more insecure than installing in a proper parittion10:27
ppokuyhRory, I just want to stock contact information, not big files10:27
Roryppokuyh: It is exactly the same system that is running10:28
ppokuyhstore*10:28
Roryppokuyh: So it is only as secure as the least secure application on it. no more or less secure with physical/virtual10:28
Wugzetheroo: I have a hardware raid card but all of my drives are too new to replace :D10:29
ppokuyhRory k thx, how many GB I need to allocate for Ubuntu server?10:29
Roryppokuyh: That depends on how much data you want to store10:29
Roryppokuyh: At a minimum I'd say 8GiB, plus extra space for your data10:30
ppokuyhRory less than 500mb for the moment10:30
ppokuyhk thx Rory10:30
Wugyou can get away with 512MB as long as you don't go installing libreoffice or something.10:30
RoryNo harm in over-provisioning when you are using thin provisioning / dynamic virtual disks10:31
ppokuyhthx guys, when I have a server, I just have to boot into Ubuntu Server to sync date, right?10:32
asad2005how can i list running programs by memory consumption?10:33
Wugwell my jimmies are sufficiently settled for my desktop to stop bothering about it.  thanks Rory10:33
ppokuyhif I boot into Ubuntu Desktop, I won't be able to access my server, am I right?10:33
ppokuyhasad2005 system monitor, momory tab10:33
ppokuyhasad2005 install htop otherwise10:34
Roryppokuyh: Regarding accessing your server, it will depend how your network connection on the virtual server is set up as to how you would access that10:35
asad2005ppokuyh: thanks10:36
ppokuyhwhich is the best version of ubuntu server?10:39
ppokuyhshould I take LTS?10:40
deck-starppokuyh, I recommend LTS if you want to set it and forget it10:41

audun_I set up commandline twitter client tweepy and all is fine. I can tweet from commandline with ./mytwitterapp.sh 'my tweet'11:14
audun_Now I want to put the output of the cat command (or read a textfile) and send this as a tweet. How do I get the output between the single quotes?11:14
Ubuntivityaudun_: you need to pass the standard output of your 'cat' and capture it as standard input in your mytwitterapp.sh11:16
theadminaudun_: ./mytwiterapp.sh "$(cat hamsters)"11:16
theadminaudun_: Where "hamsters" is your text file.11:16
audun_thanks.yes I tried something like that. Let me just test again11:17
jimmydorryembarassing question. The disk I have the system is on is full. From SSH terminal how do I find where all the data is? Manually trying the common culprits /var/log with du did not reveal anything.11:17

audun_theadmin.thanks. it worked! I was putting sigle quotes around the double quotes first, because single quotes was needed for typing text into it.11:22
jimmydorryam I crazy or am I missing a lot of disk?11:22
theadminaudun_: Single quotes can not be needed, they simply make Bash interpret all special characters as regular ones, such as spaces, etc, including the $() construct. Double quotes help with spaces and other common signs, while leaving special constructs intact.11:23
jimmydorryi've never seen this before :(11:23

maokaiihttp://paste.ubuntu.com/6458067/ done11:39
theadminluckybunny: But removing "ubuntu-desktop" is safe. It's just a metapackage, it pulls in all the standard Ubuntu packages when you install it, but removing it does nothing11:39
maokaiidone rory: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6458067/11:39
Rorymaokaii: What ubuntu version are you using (you can use cat /etc/issue to check)11:39
maokaiirory im using ubuntu 12.0411:40
CatKillermaokaii: Can you also paste the output of "cat /proc/partitions" ?11:40
Rorymaokaii: Also is your Windows drive actually /dev/sda1 ?11:40
luckybunnytheadmin: it also wants to remove alsa-base and linux-sound-base11:40
luckybunnysounds like they could be pretty crucial11:40
theadminluckybunny: Ah, then don't. Remove oss4-base.11:40
maokaiirory: http://i.imgur.com/4qKlApW.jpg my windows drive is a 250 gb SSD11:40

theadminluckybunny: Ubuntu11:40
maokaiicatkiller: im doing try ubuntu not install, dont wanna screw anything up, will that effect hard drives at all?11:40
RoryWell maokaii for a start you will want /dev/sda2 not /dev/sda111:41
CatKillermaokaii: this is a read only call that just displays a list of available partition, no screwup11:41
maokaiirory: so sda2 is my 250gb ssd and sda1 is my 2TB ?11:41
maokaii3TB *11:41
CatKillerNope sda1 is a partition of your 250gb ssd11:42
CatKillerand so is sda211:42
Rorymaokaii: No. /dev/sda /dev/sdb etc are different drives. the numbers are partitions on each drive11:42
CatKillersda1 is the windows boot partition basically11:42
CatKillera bit like /boot on Ubuntu11:42
luckybunnydone. thanks11:43
luckybunnyturns out linux-sound-base is the base packages for both ALSA and OSS anyway, so I haven't lost anything11:44
theadminI'm not even sure why you had that installed. Heck, I'm not even sure why it's still in the repositories.11:45
luckybunnyprobably had it for years11:46
maokaiirory tried sda2 "mount is denied becayse the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened. the volume may already be mounted, or another software may use it which could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command."11:46
Rorymaokaii: sudo umount /dev/sda211:46
maokaiirory I want it mounted I think11:47
maokaiito complete the installation of this11:47
maokaiihttp://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/ekeyfinder/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=411:47
Rorymaokaii: it is already mounted somewhere else11:47
maokaiiso in that case I can skip that mounting step?11:47
CatKillermaokaii: Indeed you can. Just call "mount" to find out where /dev/sda2 is currently mounted11:50
CatKillerthen adapt the guide by replacing /mnt/sda1 with the current mountpoint, likely in the form "/media/DriveName"11:51
jimmydorrytheadmin: http://pastebin.com/h6LXed6H rebooting will probably fix this11:51

jimmydorrydid i have to force?11:52

gregor3005hi, i added a encrypted partition to my system and during boot time it don't aksed for the password. i added the informations in /etc/crypttab and added dm-crypt into /etc/modules. update-initramfs and rebooted. what can be missing?12:12
maokaiiwhat will that do?12:13
CatKillerand repeat for each closer path12:13
CatKillersee if the directory exists12:13
CatKilleror just open the file browser12:13
CatKillerand navigate there12:13
CatKillermaybe the path is different12:13
CatKillerMaybe that guide was written for a Windows XP OS and you have vista or 7 or 8 or something12:13
maokaiiCatKiller: its "windows" would the caps have messed it up?12:14
maokaii"Windows"12:14
CatKillerpossibly12:15
CatKillertry without12:15
demirulezso no one could point me to something please?12:15
CatKillerdemirulez,12:15
CatKillersorry don't know much about suspend12:15
demirulezthing is that the solution i tried should work12:17
demirulezalso because i can sucessfully resume from suspend using my mouse, under windows 712:17
demirulezso it's not a BIOS setting, It's OS related12:17
yeyemanis there a command for running c programs?12:18
yeyemanI mean other than ./myprogram12:19
CatKilleryeyeman: What does that mean?12:19
yeyemanCatKiller, I can run java programs by java program.class and python scripts by python script.py12:20
yeyemanbut what do I use for C programs?12:21
theadminyeyeman: gcc, for example.12:21
CatKilleryeyeman: Java programs are interpreted by the java binary12:21
CatKillerSo are Python program12:21
CatKillerthis means that you run the program "Python" and you feed it an actual script file12:22
CatKillerit will digest that script file and "run" it12:22
yeyemanI know that.12:22
CatKillerWhen you call a "compiled" program (whether it is C or C++ or any other compile language)12:22
CatKilleryou don't need to run an interpreter12:23
CatKillerBasically you can only run a "binary" executable12:23
yeyemanI just wanted to know if there is something like execute or run or somthing like that12:23
CatKillerIn the case of Python you run the binary program "python"12:23
CatKillerit works exactly the same way as with python12:23
CatKiller"python" will run "python"12:23
yeyemanI know12:24
CatKiller"programname" will run "programname" provided that it is in your shell $PATH12:24
CatKillerif it is not in your path, you must provide the path to the program yourself12:24
CatKillertechnically your shell is what is going to "run" the program or to "launch" or "instantiate" it12:24
maokaiiCatKiller: http://i.imgur.com/idnfgX5.png no error message at the bottom this time, that good?12:24
CatKillerso bash/bourne/zsh is what will ultimately tell the kernel to load the program12:24
maokaiiCatKiller:  let me know if you think that is good and I can move onto the last step12:25
CatKillermaokaii: Don't speak german but looks like it worked12:25
maokaiidumpt einen in eine textdatei = will dump one in a text file12:25
CatKilleruse google translate12:25
CatKillerok seems like it did work12:25
maokaiiyeah12:25
maokaiiok12:25
CatKillerIn any case no risk of moving on since the further parts only work on a file you offloaded from windows to Ubuntu12:26
CatKillerif it's not there it'll fail but that's it12:26
maokaiiok CatKiller  thanks :)12:27
maokaiiCatKiller:  just noticed the guide says to use ubuntu 32 bit, im usin 64 bit >.> damn idk if that will effect it12:27
CatKillermaokaii: Give it a shot12:27
CatKillerI don't think so anyways12:27
maokaiiCatKiller: ok12:28
maokaiiCatKiller: thanks again hopefully this works so I can get the key and version and reinstall :p12:28
CatKillermaokaii: It's kindof ironic that you need Ubuntu to get your Windows key to reinstall isn't it? :p12:29
maokaiiCatKiller:  it was custom made and I dont have the product key, it wont boot up in any mode12:29
maokaiiCatKiller: you think im stealing :P ?12:30
CatKillerI know but it's just insane you can't retrieve it from Windows12:30
CatKillernot at all12:30
CatKillerit's just that MS makes it really hard for anybody to do the simplest things12:30
maokaiiCatKiller:  I think I could, but i can't boot into it12:30
CatKillerahhh ok12:30
CatKillerfair enough12:30
CatKillerthen forget what I just said ;)12:30
maokaiiit should be on computer properties, my friend is dumb though :p12:31
ObrienDavenot even into "safe mode"12:31
maokaiiCatKiller:  http://i.imgur.com/ijPrT8y.png :s12:32
maokaiisorry for being really dumb/noobish12:32
maokaiibut could really use your help for this last step12:32
ReactoMy dual monitor settings in nvidia x settings never saves, rather they just restore on every reboot12:33
CatKillerthat archive is not good12:33
CatKillertry to redownload it12:33
Adityacan u one tell me about topic12:33
Reactoi've tried setting the xorg.conf file manually, i've tried running nvidia-settings as sudo etc, nothing works12:33
CatKillerit's just basically corrupted12:33
maokaiiCatKiller: what do you mean? Run the same command?12:33
CatKillerwhere did you get it from?12:33

CatKillerah yues12:34
CatKillerthat's sourceforge being horrible12:34
CatKillerpeople are moving away from it12:34
CatKillerdownload it using a browser12:34
CatKillerhere it downloaded a 1000 byte file12:34
CatKillerwhich is not the actual file12:34
CatKillersourceforge does redirections etc12:34
CatKilleruse firefox12:34
maokaiiokay, will i still be able do the same thing?12:34
CatKillerand then "mv Downloads/<filename> /home/ubuntu/"12:35
[Gentoo]Reacto: did you generate an xorg.conf from nvidia-settings?12:35
CatKilleryes once you move it where it should go12:35
Reactoyes, I tried that too12:35
CatKillerwith the command above12:35
[Gentoo]Reacto: and obviously placed in /etc/X11 yes?12:35
Reactoye12:35
Reactothat's the default location it saves to12:35
[Gentoo]well normally nbidia-settings isnt run as root12:36
Reactono, but I ran it as root when I did it12:36
[Gentoo]ok12:36
Reactoalso tried editing xorg.conf as root manually, but it still reset12:36
[Gentoo]what reset12:36
gregor3005hi, i added a encrypted partition to my system and during boot time it don't aksed for the password. i added the informations in /etc/crypttab and added dm-crypt into /etc/modules. update-initramfs and rebooted. what can be missing?12:36
[Gentoo]i got no exp with dual monitors to let you know12:36
ReactoI mean that it resets the settings every time I reboot12:37
[Gentoo]Reacto: run nvidia-settings -l12:37
[Gentoo]from terminal12:37
maokaiihttp://sourceforge.net/projects/ekeyfinder/files/v0.1%20Beta/EKeyfinder_v0.1beta7_win32.zip/download12:37
[Gentoo]as normal user12:37
maokaiithis the only download I can find for it12:37
Reactonothing happens [Gentoo]12:37
maokaiicatkiller12:37
cstur4What are you talking about12:38
[Gentoo]run nvidia-settings as normal user, save the settings to your home dir (default) then try that command after a reboot12:38
[Gentoo]or have you done all that12:38
CatKillermaokaii: Use firefox, paste the download link in the bar12:38
maokaiicatkiller "mv Downloads/<filename> /home/ubuntu/" so..change <filename> to "EKeyfinder_v0.1beta7_win32.zip" ?12:38
CatKillermaokaii: This will redirect you to a download page12:38
CatKillermaokaii: Download the file12:38
CatKilleronce downloaded, then you can use the "mv" command12:39
Reactothe default location is /etc/X11/xorg.conf, not my home dir [Gentoo]12:39
[Gentoo]Reacto: not the xorg.conf, the nvidia-settings settings12:39
Reactoah12:39
[Gentoo]you can generate an xorg.conf from nvidia-settings, and also a nvidia settings file12:39
Reactomaybe that's what I've been doing wrong, I've only been saving the xorg.conf file12:39
Reactogonna try12:39
[Gentoo]maybe12:40
maokaiiso catkiller, the file in the guide its downloading?12:40
[Gentoo]i think its on the bottom right "save settings to file" or cimilar12:40
[Gentoo]similar*12:40
maokaiihttp://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ekeyfinder/v0.1%20Beta/EKeyfinder_v0.1beta4_win32.zip12:40
Reactoye found it, gonna check if it works after reboot12:40
Reactothanks12:40
[Gentoo]Reacto: it should automatically load12:41
[Gentoo]but if it doesnt12:41
[Gentoo]run nvidia-settings -l12:41
[Gentoo]and youd have to add that to your startup programs12:41
adacguys what is the differnce between a /dev/mapper device and a /dev/md device?12:41

maokaiicatkiller question is am i looking for latest version of the software, or the direct download from the guide "http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ekeyfinder/v0.1%20Beta/EKeyfinder_v0.1beta4_win32.zip"12:42

amitprakashnm.. needed postgresql12:42
maokaiiand then12:42
CatKilleruse the same version from the guide12:43
CatKilleronce the file has downloaded12:43
CatKilleryou can move it in your home directory using the command I pasted above "mv blahblah"12:43
maokaiimv Downloads/<filename> /home/ubuntu/ <filename> being the file name of the file :p ?12:43
CatKillerI never specified the second <filename>12:43
CatKillerjust the first one12:43
amitprakashhmm, actually still no postgresql service12:43
maokaiiwithout the < >12:43
CatKilleryes12:43
maokaiiok so12:43
CatKilleror use the actual file browser otherwise12:43
CatKillermuch more simple12:43

cfhowletttime1343, greetings12:44

maokaiiCatKiller: im using terminal, really hate to bug you with my stupidity. "mv Downloads/EKeyfinder_v0.1beta4_win32.zip /home/ubuntu/" with the space is correct?12:45

maokaiiyes?12:46
CatKillermaokaii: Once the file is in place you can continue the guide from right after the "wget" step12:47
maokaiiok12:47
daedeloth_I think I need to start with schrinking windows 812:47
[Gentoo]daedeloth_: do it from gparted and drag the slider along12:47
philinuxRazkin;~ do a net search for "ubuntu 32 vs 64 ram use" with and without the ubuntu bit12:47
[Gentoo]so you have unallocated space after windows 812:47
[Gentoo]then format that as ext412:47
[Gentoo]choose that partition on the install12:48
CatKillerdaedeloth_: Be aware that this might take a while12:48
daedeloth_ah, live disk, forgot about that12:48
CatKillerdaedeloth_: And you probably won't be able to pause it12:48
[Gentoo]CatKiller: shrinking shouldnt take long at all12:48
[Gentoo]seconds normally12:48
CatKiller[Gentoo]: depends if there are blocks used at the end of the partition12:49
philinuxdaedeloth_;~ dont forget to use wiindows to do the shrinking12:49
CatKiller[Gentoo]: Depending on your fragmentation etc it can take a while to move physical blocks to free space12:49
[Gentoo]yeah12:49
[Gentoo]bit still it shouldnt take long12:49
daedeloth_why use windows?12:50
gregor3005hi, i added a encrypted partition to my system and during boot time it don't aksed for the password. i added the informations in /etc/crypttab and added dm-crypt into /etc/modules. update-initramfs and rebooted. what can be missing?12:50

felyxmsdw, y i know but guides tell me to do this sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/default /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite13:01
felyxmy prob is that there is not defautl file in there just 000-default.conf13:01
msdwFelyx What apahe are you using13:01
daedeloth_200gb for a windows partition should be fine, right?13:01
felyxsecond prob is that this wont work either sudo a2dissite default && sudo a2ensite mysite13:01
DanatoCatKiller: I already did that but i ddnt find anything like the window shown, although I think I have seen it Unity13:02
daedeloth_nah, never mind, no resizing.13:02

jbrelinHey, all.  I'm a Debian user who just installed XBMCbuntu and am surprised to find no eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces while eth0 is configured and working!  Can someone point me to the place to modify that interface?13:11
ActionParsnipgregor3005: ok you only have 2 kenels installed, that's fine13:11
gregor3005ActionParsnip: yes i know :-)13:12

jhutchins_wkjbrelin: Probably network-manager13:13
msdwFelyx does it work13:13
jbrelinI don't see anything in /etc/NetworkManager, jhutchins_wk.13:13
maokaiihello, to install wine, do I just do "sudo apt-get install wine" after adding the source here? http://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu13:14
jbrelinThat is, nothing that mentions eth0.13:14
jhutchins_wkjbrelin: Right.13:14
ActionParsnipgregor3005: where is the issue?13:14
maokaiihttp://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu I just type "sudo apt-get install wine" after I add that source, right?13:15
felyxmsdw, i wil find it out very soon13:15
gregor3005ActionParsnip: when i run "update-initramfs -u -k all" i get http://paste.ubuntu.com/6458437/ here you can see he tries to build for 3.8.0-19-generic but i don't have such a kernel installed13:16
jbrelinCan someone please tell me where eth0 is getting its configuration?  It's not mentioned in /etc/network/interfaces where I expect.13:16

nashantHey, I had an issue where bits of an old kernel were left over and I had to boot to a live usb and run boot-repair. Now my install doesn't boot automatically. Any idea how I fix it?13:30
maokaiiBluesKaj:  i got it, i put the error heres: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6458502/13:30
cfhowlettnashant, you removed ALL the old kernels?  if not, back up 1 version and try13:31
wilornelI have an EFI partition on my HDD, since Windows 8 is using it already. If I select that EFI partition for "Device for boot loader installation", I... I get the same error. Why is that so?13:31
BluesKajmaokaii. have you updated/upgraded lately ?13:31
maokaiiBluesKaj:  I did "sudo apt-get update" as I was told to a bit ago13:31
msdw01maokaii try apt-get uipdate, apt-get upgrade, apt-get install -f13:31
maokaiimsdw01 no install ubuntu, not ready to install using it on a usb drive13:32
nashantcfhowlett: I removed the one that was causing the issue (uname -a was reporting version 3.8.0.19, so I removed 3.8.*)13:32
msdw01why dont you use a vm13:32
BluesKajyes maokaii , but you also have to,  sudo apt-get upgrade13:32
jbrelinCan someone please tell me what is configuring eth0?13:32
wilornelcfhowlett: It was written on the community UEFI page that there should be only one EFI partition on the HDD, so that is not an option, when I try to have two of these partitions, it just wont start installing13:32
maokaiiBluesKaj:  so that won't install it right?13:32
cfhowlettnashant, reboot, go to advanced boot options or boot older ubuntu.13:32
nashantThe issue is that it doesn't automatically select and boot the first option13:33
BluesKajmaokaii. upgrade first then install13:33
msdw01jberlin you want to config the eth013:33
gregor3005ActionParsnip: a i got it. thanks to open source, i love it13:33
maokaiiBluesKaj:  I can't install13:33
cfhowlettwilornel, sadly, I haven't yet had to personally experience uefi.  ask again in channel and check the forums.13:33
wilornelcfhowlett, any idea why when I use the old EFI partition to boot Ubuntu, it still throws the same error?13:33
nashantcfhowlett: I don't want to boot an older kernel, I just want grub to automatically boot the latest, which it has stopped doing13:33
maokaiiBluesKaj:  need to keep all the data on my hard drives13:33
wilornelalright, then13:33
jbrelinmsdw01, eth0 is already configured, but it' s not listed in /etc/network/interfaces13:33
jbrelinmsdw01: I know how to configure an interface by hand.  I'm wondering whence it's current configuration comes.13:34
jbrelinErr... its.13:34
msdw01when its listed in interfaces its not config13:34
gregor3005ActionParsnip: the next problem is now, why the encrypted partition are not opened during boot13:34
BluesKajmaokaii. ??13:34
maokaiicatkiller told me it wasnt needed to install13:34
cfhowlettnashant, update-grub should have cleared all of that mess out.  You might need to boot off of a USB, mount your HDD and do some additional cleaning.   Don't know what else to suggest.  sorry.13:34
BluesKajwhat isn't needed, maokaii?13:34
jbrelinmsdw01: I can't parse that sentence.  There is no eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces and yet it is configured and working.13:35
jbrelinSo where is this configuration?13:35
maokaiiBluesKaj:  installing ubuntu to my hard drive13:35
UriekVigilantI put a USb pen drive with Lubuntu 13.10 on ACer 3003 wlmi with 1 gb Ram , after a few minutes the only thing i can see is screen changing from all black to black with the mouse pointer ? I also tryed another usb p+en with Ubuntu 13.10 and same thing ....13:35
maokaiiisn't needed13:35
nashantcfhowlett: There's actually no mess. Just the very few correct options. It's just I have to manually select the boot option13:35
wilornelDoes anyone know why is it that, after I receive an error "grub-efi-amd64-signed failed to install [...]" when I try to install Ubuntu, and that I try again, that time selecting my already-existing EFI partition(since my laptop came with Windows 8), I get the same error?13:35
msdw01i ahev that prob to with mint prob the gui config doesnt meet the file13:35
ObrienDavemaokaii, you are running from a "live" system in "try" mode, yes?13:35
jbrelinmsdw01: I have no GUI.13:36
UriekVigilantWhat could be wrong i searched on internet and i found people saying that work for them !13:36
maokaiiobriendave yes13:36
BluesKajmaokaii. you can't install wine on  live-media afaik13:36
ObrienDaveyou can't install ANYTHING to a live system afaik13:36
jbrelinThis seems like the most straightforward question in the world.13:37
msdw01in the file what options does it give you eth0 with ipv4 and ipv613:37

msdw01the interfaces13:37
cstur4can I use codeblocks in Ubuntu 13.1013:37
jbrelin/etc/network/interfaces only lists loopback interfaces.  There is no eth0 mentioned.13:37
cfhowlettnashant, frustrating.  especially since it sounds like you're so very close to fixing it.13:38
BluesKajjbrelin. it should have auto rtho listed13:38
BluesKajeth013:38
UriekVigilantplease help Ubuntu and Lubuntu 13.10 pen usb driv e install Acer aspire  3003 wlmi with 1 Gb ram , is not working , screen stay black 1 second and another second black with mouse pointer on it ,13:38
jhutchins_wkjbrelin: You have the standard GUI desktop?13:38
jbrelinYes, BluesKaj.  That is what I would expect.13:38
UriekVigilanti can reach to that part asking us to try or full install on HD13:39
jbrelinI have no GUI installed, jhutchins_wk.13:39
jbrelinBluesKaj, it has lo only.13:39
jhutchins_wkjbrelin: Interesting.13:40
msdw01does it couse you any prob the missing eth013:40
BluesKajjbrelin. are you using network manager ?13:40
maokaiiBluesKaj:  so I can only get wine if I install? How can I do this without overwriting any hard drives? Or could I install it to a usb flash drive?13:40
jhutchins_wkBluesKaj: He says no GUI.13:40
jbrelinBluesKaj, NetworkManager is installed, but I've never run X.13:41
jhutchins_wkmaokaii: Wine is packaged for ubuntu and available in the usual repositories.13:41
msdw01maokaii install a vm on you cp and then just install the ubuntu you wont mess un anything and you wont have prob13:41
maokaiimsdw01:  im a noob with ubuntu, i need to figure out how to do that if you dont mind13:42
jbrelinBluesKaj, it may even be running. But I want to switch to static IP and there's no config file that I can see.13:42
BluesKajmaokaii. you'll have to install ubuntu on a partition on a hdd , there's no other alternative , unless you know how to use chroot (which I have tried but am no expert on )13:43
maokaiidoes anybody have links or help for me to do this then without deleting anything on the hard drive and not effecting a windows boot later?13:43

jbrelinI wasn't familiar with NetworkManager13:45

LeMikehello. i am searching for a command to find a specific file path. but this isn't possible: find -maxdepth 3 -type d -name "modules/local". how do i find by the whole path name?13:47
yeatsLeMike: try 'locate <file>'13:48
jbrelinBluesKaj, I know how to configure an interface.  But that wasn't telling me what was configuring my eth0 or how to work around it.13:48
msdw01maokaii after you install virtualbox install the moduel for usb support13:48
jbrelinFYI to anyone who cares: NetworkManager will ignore interfaces mentioned in /etc/network/interfaces, so I can override it there without uninstalling it.13:48
Tex_NickLeMake : or jhave you tried just opening terminal, & dragging file into terminal ?13:49
yeatsLeMike: if the file is new, you may have to do 'sudo updatedb' to refresh locate's index13:49
jbrelinThis solves my problem.13:49
Le_Bacon_So, I'm currently trying to install Zorin OS, which I know is based on Ubuntu, so I'm here.  When I try to boot up Zorin from the bios i get this message: "SYSLINUX 3.63 Debian-2012-04-16 EBIOS Copyright (C) 1994-2008 H. Peter Anvin.  Boot:"  And it just stays there.13:49

ubottuLe_Bacon_: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information.

LeMikelocate also lists every subfolder and option -b doesn't work.13:49
LeMikei just need every folder that is "modules/local$"13:50
philinuxLe_Bacon_;~ try here #ZorinOS13:50
Tex_NickLeMike:  i misspelled your nick above ... have you tried just opening terminal, & dragging file into terminal ?13:51
Le_Bacon_philinux: i did, but there was no response13:51
BluesKajthat 's NM jbrelin , that's the default , you need to remove it or purge if you like , then the interfaces file will become default , and resolv.conf depends on settings you add in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base , now too13:51
LeMikeTex_Nick: i read it, but don't know how that should work... i am searching for specific folders within the current one.13:52
wheatthinLeMike, so use find13:52
Le_Bacon_philinux: i did, but there was no response13:52
Le_Bacon_at all13:52

LeMikei use find like this wheatthin , but it doesn't match subfolders: find -maxdepth 3 -type d -name "foo/bar"13:53
Le_Bacon_Yeah, nothing there13:53
Tex_NickLeMike ok sorry ... i totally missed your issue13:53
philinuxLe_Bacon_;~ maybe time to try a different distro then13:53

msdw01Le_Bacon_ have you tried it on diferent machine or vm13:54

RomanceLe_Bacon_: the web13:55

CatKillerBluesKaj: maokaii needs to run a Windows tool to retrieve his Windows CD key. He's running it from a livecd14:07
CatKillerto run this tool he needs Wine14:07
CatKillerapt-get update threw an error14:07
CatKillerso he couldn't properly do an apt-get install wine14:07
ActionParsnipLe_Bacon_: its not a release by Canonical, so yes it's a spinoff14:09
Le_Bacon_ok well, i cant get on the #linux server14:09
ActionParsnipLe_Bacon_: this channel is ONLY for Canonical releases. NONE of the 'Ubuntu based' distro are supported here. Similarly, Ubuntu is base don Debian, but if you ask for support in #debian you will be directed here14:10
ActionParsnipLe_Bacon_: its that black and white14:10

lenzeorHello everybody. I am on Ubuntu 12.04 (elementaryOS) and I would like to move my /home to a dedicated partition. I only have 1 partition on my HDD right now though. Can anybody help me?14:49
xangualenzeor: /join #elementary14:49
theadminlenzeor: ElementaryOS is not Ubuntu. But you can boot a LiveCD (Ubuntu one will do), resize the existing partition using GParted, move the contents of /home to there, and modify /etc/fstab accordingly.14:50
theadminlenzeor: Once you've booted the LiveCD of Ubuntu, this channel may be able to help in more detail.14:50
lenzeorThanks, theadmin... Sounds okay, I might be capable of that. I will read some things on the modification of fstab though. Is there no way to do it without a livecd?14:52
theadminlenzeor: No, you can't resize the partition from which the OS is running.14:53
theadminlenzeor: Also, make sure that the new /home has the same filesystem type as the main FS of your current setup.14:53
lenzeorFat32 that would be14:53
theadminlenzeor: Uh, no, that's unlikely. Linux can't run on Fat32.14:53
Hounddogblehm i dont know how to split this up in a reasonable way using ssd and hdd have 30gb on ssd and 400gb on hdd free currently for everything...14:54

Sven_vBbwe, try tracking which programs start on your system. maybe it's a new cron job? or recently installed some new program?15:40
Guest82094\server oltreirc.net15:40
BluesKajGuest82094. , in the server textbox , not the chat15:41
Sven_vBkairos, what's the exact message in the terminal?15:41
bweSven_vB: I think it's related to cron. But which tool sends the mail? cron?15:41
Sven_vBbwe, cron has several "cron jobs" configured, which usually are other programs to run. check "cron --list" to see the list of your cron jobs; each user on your system could have its own list, and you'd probably need to check them all.15:42

smooresSome dhcp clients on my lan are resolving a hostname to an external ip address while some other clients are resolving to an internal ip address. Same gateway and dns suffix, what might cause that? using ics-dhcp-server16:22
Rorysmoores: Are they all ubuntu machines?16:22
smooresRory, makes no difference if the dhcp client is ubuntu or windows in this case, it's seemingly random.16:22
smooresRory, but the dhcp server is an ubuntu machine :)16:22
Rorysmoores: Are they all set up to use the same DNS server?16:23
RoryIs the DHCp server also the DNS server?16:23
molgrumi have system alert sounds in gnome shell but not in unity, this is a problem because i cannot hear highlights on x-chat. i've tried resetting unity settings to no avail16:23
smooresRory, the clients should be pulling the dns server from the dhcp server and the dhcp server should be configured to give the same nameservers to all the clients16:23
smooresRory, any specific config files i need to check? i didn't set this up so i'm jumping in headfirst16:24
jhutchins_wksmoores: Resolving a hostname.  That has nothing to do with dhcp.16:24
Rorysmoores: You should check what the nameserver is set to on a client that 8does* work, and a client that *doesn't*16:24
smooresRory, i did. connection specific dns suffix in both cases is dns.example.tld16:24

AceBlade258the inital crash was because of my motherboard/chipset16:52
compdocAceBlade258, you want to look at the SMART data. IF there are any reallocated sectors, the drive gets dropped from the array. Amy also happen with pending sectors16:53
AceBlade258compdoc: i'm actually not too concerned with the array. I just need to get to ubuntu16:53
AceBlade258sorry16:53
AceBlade258i meant to make that clear.16:54
AceBlade258I want to disable raid initialization during boot essentially16:54
breedx_** fixed it, thank your arch linux forums.16:54
compdocwhat if you disconnected the dropped drive?16:55
breedx_** needed hciconfig hci0 up16:55
AceBlade258compdoc: I'd have to disconnect all of them16:55
AceBlade258from my understanding, if i remove /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md.raid.rules16:57

binaryi changed my password but it did not change ecryptfs-mount-private pass17:58
binaryany ideas?17:58
hitsujiTMOhashguy: no, there is no requirement for ssh to know the clients user account17:59
binaryi have to log in with new password - then do CTRL ALT F1, then mount ecryptfs-mount-private with old pass, then CTRL ALT F7 back to GUI then retype new password :(18:00
hashguyhitsujiTMO: I'm not asking for a requirement, I'm asking if there's something I can do to let it happen18:00
hashguylike an option in ~/.ssh/config or something18:00
hashguyWe have multiple people with access to the SSH key for one box, and things keep getting "mysteriously changed"18:01
hitsujiTMOhashguy: no. its not part of the spec so that info will never get sent. is there a particular reason why you want that info?18:01
hitsujiTMOhashguy: you should have different accounts for every user18:01
hashguyhitsujiTMO: There's only one user on the machine - ec2-user18:01
binarymaybe change permissions on folders and files and only give necessary privileges to those that need them18:02

pleanbeanHey. Is downgrading from 14.04 to 13.10 as straight forward as installing 13.10 over the 14.04 install?18:26
Hounddogezra-s: am confused how to partition and split up the installation between ssd and hdd18:26
ezra-spleanbean, certainly not18:26
zykotick9pleanbean: you CAN'T really downgrade!  you have to reinstall...18:26
binarywell i gotta get some other work done. Thank-you for your expertise ezra-s :D and chat skills18:27
pleanbeanOk, thats fine. But I can simply reinstall directly over my 14.04 installation, right18:27
ezra-sHounddog, depends on your needs really and the size of each18:27
ezra-sbinary, a pleasure18:27
pleanbeanOr should I repartition and start from scratch18:27
Hounddogezra-s: like should the home go in ssd and symlink media folders to hdd or put the /ho;e on hdd and sy;link configs etc to sssd18:27
ezra-sHounddog, tell me the size of each and what are you going to do with it18:27
Hounddogezra-s: am running dual boot and have 30gb on ssd and 400 gb on hdd18:28
nooblinuxHello helpful community18:28
Hounddogezra-s: +16gb ram and mostly for work php development whereas i might also install steam18:29
ezra-sHounddog, I have a similar setup to you, I use SSD for the OS meaning / and HDD is a specific folder inside my /home, it is a very simple setup but as a desktop user where I use ssd I didn't need anything more complex18:29
nooblinuxI am running a headless ubuntu server on laptop but every time I close the lid it keeps suspending. How do I prevent suspension when lid is closed?18:29
ezra-sHounddog, the specific directory I mentioned in which I mount the hdd is for a steam library18:29
Hounddogezra-s: just dont want to end up with the system telling me there is no more space18:29
nooblinuxIs there a text file I must edit via command-line?18:29
Hounddogezra-s: great so you know what i need lol18:30
ezra-sHounddog, you can use ssd for games in which you want to go very fast and create another steam library in the hdd for those that don't need such, since the space is limited in the ssd it may give you room for a few games18:30
Hounddogi was reading on google but with each article it gets more confusing18:30
trismnooblinux: http://askubuntu.com/questions/141866/keep-ubuntu-server-running-on-a-laptop-with-the-lid-closed18:30
trismnooblinux: hmm maybe I should have read that closer first18:31
Hounddogezra-s: so you just installed everything on ssd to / and then symlinked?18:31
ezra-sHounddog, if you want to make something more complex you could have /var or other main directories in the hdd18:31
Hounddogezra-s: i need also vm/vagrant which should be fast18:32
nooblinuxwhat trism?18:32
ezra-sHounddog, I didn't symlink, everything on ssd (mine is 120GB), and in my home I made a new fstab entry to mount the hdd as "exthdd" with my permissions and all, that's where I have the second steam library and where I install most games18:32
ezra-sIm not at home now so I can't copy paste it to you18:33
ezra-sbut you get the overall image I guess18:33
Hounddogezra-s: sounds fine to me... so it should be fairly si;ple18:33
Hounddogstart by installing everything to /18:34
SlutaTramsaI'm on ubuntu 13.10 and i want to install the proprietary ati radeon 6950 drivers, is fglrx-updates good enough or should i get the latest from AMDs website? which is better?18:34

ezra-sHounddog, 30GB is a bit tight really, if you don't mind much about boot up speed you can install in the hdd and use the sdd mounted as a folder in your home for a specific steam library and vm's18:37

nashantkernels in sda1?19:12
tozenSven_vB: i found nmcli nm and nmcli dev this is what i needed but anyway thx, pal!19:12
tripelb2I want my PANEL ICON back please help me. -- 12.04 Gnome-classic:that windshieldwipertrace shaped thing that gets parellel lines on in when I am connected to a network, ie the connectivity-icon in the PANEL has vanished and I want it back, please.19:12
Beldarnashant, No one suggested, " so purge grub and reinstall to sda?" there were two different comments is all.19:13
Sven_vBtozen, ye19:14
nashantBeldar: if I purge grub and reinstall it will ask me to select the device to install to anyway, no?19:14
tripelb2How can I tell when my wifi is connected and to which network. It used to be on the panel.. now I am searching in the menus. 12.04,gnomeclassic.19:14
Sven_vBtozen, yw*19:14
tozenyw* ???19:14
nashantBeldar: oh. I thought by the "weak" comment that's what I should do19:14
Beldarnashant, I have never used a partition for boot so not my area to ask on converting is all.19:14
glitsj16tripelb2: never used gnome-classic, but you can try nm-applet19:14
Sven_vBtozen, you're welcome. ;) i just mistypted the acronym the first time.19:14
tozenSven_vB: ok19:15
xanguatripelb2: do you have netgorl-manager-gnome installed¿ or it was gnome-network-manager19:15
zykotick9tripelb2: does running "nm-applet" bring it up?  or is the whole notification area missing?19:15
nashantBeldar: fair enough. But you reckon a reinstall is the place to start? Not necessarily to sda, but to sda119:16
Beldarnashant, sudo apt-get purge grub-common grub-pc && sudo apt-get install grub  and choose sda1 when asked where19:17
nashantBeldar: yeah, I'll give it a go19:18
zykotick9Beldar: do what you want - but seriously, i'd suggest using the MBR sda - why to partition sda1?19:18
Beldarnashant, You will have a new /etc/default/grub19:19
Beldarzykotick9, I am not sure on how to move that to the mbr with kernels in sda1, I stated that.19:19
zykotick9Beldar: sorry, wrong person!19:19
Beldarhehe19:19
nashantBeldar: aren't the kernels located out of /boot anyway?19:22
Beldarnashant, Yes on a mbr setup, not sure with sda1 as a boot, we see people here filling up their boot with to many kernels almost daily.19:23
Beldarboot partitions that is19:23
=== json is now known as Guest18796
zykotick9nashant: grub has 2 parts, the files are stored on a filesystem, and there is a boot part - which you're currently trying to put in the wrong place sda1, when you should be putting it on sda = the MBR of the drive.  [it's VERY rare you want to use a PBR instead of the MBR]19:24
nashantI'll try sticking it on sda19:25
nashantif it goes wrong, I can always live usb and chroot again19:25
Beldarnashant, I think the boot file is in sda1 not in root is the issue.19:25
D4CH_RPiyay! installed ubuntu on my laptop.. now I need to learn more linux19:25
Beldar!yay | D4CH_RPi19:27
ubottuD4CH_RPi: Glad you made it! :-)19:27
tripelb2zykotick9, I will try.19:27
D4CH_RPi;)19:27
BeldarD4CH_RPi, back it up before you break it, if your like the rest of us who tended to do that at the start. ;)19:28
tripelb2zykotick9, I will try.-- says applet now removed from the notification menu. but it is back. Thanks.19:28
D4CH_RPiBeldar: back it up how19:28
BeldarD4CH_RPi, I'm a fan of cloning for easy just slipping it back in, but I store very little in the OS19:29

D4CH_RPiah yeah okay, I keep important stuff on network drives or usb hdds19:29
BeldarD4CH_RPi, I use clonezilla, but there are built in backups, I have never used them so not sure of there use, keeping track of what you do is good.19:30
BeldarD4CH_RPi, Heh, my ego does not allow me to ask for help, so I clone, however I rarely have a problem, been years really.19:32
D4CH_RPihaha19:33
D4CH_RPiif i break something i just reinstall19:33

m1sf1thmm, i couldn't even tell you what graphics card it has, it was given to me a few days ago with vista on it19:36
Beldarm1sf1t, When  you installed ubuntu did you load a graphic driver?19:37
IronMaideni have a program which uses cuda to run how do I install that?19:37
RoseHello xD19:37
Beldar!cuda19:37
m1sf1tyeah, I installed an nvidia driver19:37
Beldarm1sf1t, From where?19:37
m1sf1ti couldn't tell you the exact model though, unless you know of a command that lists the device name of my graphics?19:38
ezra-sm1sf1t, you don't have the nvidia utility to check that yourself?19:38
m1sf1tit was automatic, it just updated it with nvidia drivers19:38
m1sf1tnot that i know of :(19:39
ezra-sin unity start typing nvidia19:39
IronMaidenI found this but I dont really know what to do with it https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads19:39
ezra-snvidia tool will show up if you have nvidia installed19:39
m1sf1tok just a second :)19:39
Beldarm1sf1t, My questions are related to using the drivers straight from nvidia IE proprietary, they will not follow a kernel upgrade.19:39
ezra-sIronMaiden if you don't know what to do with it why are you trying to do something with it?19:39
m1sf1ti've had to load a live cd, in order to even see anything on screen19:39
PresidentObama31Hi folks.19:40

maujhsnWhat is the recommended wait time to ping this ubuntu mirror? 127.0.0.1 localhost!19:47
IronMaidenmaujhsn 127.0.0.1 is an IP address that means "the computer you are currently on"19:48
IronMaidenso it is not an ubuntu mirror!19:48
m1sf1tis there a way to change the screen resolution ubuntu boots into from a live cd?19:48
gordonjcpjorman: did you have an Ubuntu support question?19:48
m1sf1tmeaning the screen resolution that my installed ubuntu boots into, not what the cd boots into :)19:48
maujhsnIronmaiden...Duuhhh Thanks!19:49
ezra-sm1sf1t, nvidia settings tool can19:49
IronMaidenezra-s it says 384 cuda cores19:49
m1sf1ti have that open atm, but the settings availbale are just things like "enable tooltips" and "display status bar"19:50
ezra-sIronMaiden, so now that we've checked that you have what you need. Now you need to check the software that requires it and the instructions it tells you19:50
IronMaidenezra-s it is cudahashcat+19:51
ezra-sIronMaiden, that's not #ubuntu :P19:51
IronMaidenezra-s what do you mean?19:51
ezra-sIronMaiden, check if there is an #nvidia channel or for documentation for that19:51
ezra-sIronMaiden, i don't know anything about it sorry19:51

maujhsnIronMaiden The same would be true for this one as well right? "127.0.1.1 ubuntu"!19:52
IronMaideni just need to know how to install cuda19:52
ezra-sIronMaiden, try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-cuda-toolkit"19:53
IronMaidenmaujhsn that isnt an ubuntu mirror, where are you getting these?19:53
maujhsnIronMaiden, /etc/hosts19:54

ezra-sm1sf1t, I don't think it is a command, more like a client option19:56
MonkeyDustm1sf1t  depends on your client19:56
Beldarm1sf1t, if you have a gui client usually in preferences.19:56

jazzmehello, I was wondering why Task Manager reports 100% cpu...when the only two processes in double digits is Firefox, 40 % and Task Manager 20% ?20:11
m1sf1tyeah i've read that you should have 2 or 3 gigs, and that 64 bit is only more efficient if you are doing lots of calculations20:11
Roryjazzme: what is 40 + 40 + 20 ?20:11
RoryOh sorry jazzme I misread that20:11
jazzmeno prob20:12
Roryjazzme: There is an option to show processes from all users; do things change when you use it?20:12
jazzmeoh...let me see how to turn that on20:12
Roryjazzme: you can also use the "top" command in the Terminal20:12
ionuxjazzme: there's got to be another process you aren't seeing.  open up a terminal and use the 'top' command.20:12
nashantBeldar: yup, that's what I did20:12
bekksm1sf1t: Having a 64bit CPU and using a 32bit OS is wasting 50% of the resources you have.20:13
m1sf1thave you tried switching it off and on again? haha :D20:13
m1sf1tgood point bekks20:13
Rorybekks: Was that a serious statement?20:13
bekksRory: Yes.20:13
RoryOK20:13
bekksRory: Its like the ancient myth that free RAM is good RAM. Free RAM is wasted RAM.20:14
Rorybekks: Free RAm is *potential* to do stuff20:14
m1sf1tyeah, it's like having an empty desk20:14
piccaFree RAM is usually used for buffering20:14
bekksRory: Free RAM is unused and thus wasted.20:14
jazzmehmmm..what is Xorg?  30% cpu20:14
Beldarnashant, Well, I mentioned that so, probably fixable, you have to start researching what your doing rather then acting on instinct.20:14
bekkspicca: free RAM is free RAM. Used RAM may be used by buffers.20:15
TomyWorkjazzme, oh it's unimportant. just some thing that displays all the graphics on screen20:15
m1sf1tid rather have free ram than using loads of swap :)20:15
Roryjazzme: xorg is the display server which draws to the screen. Are you running Unity in 2d mode?20:15
jazzmenot sure20:15
bekksm1sf1t: I'd rather have 100% RAM used and lower swappiness...20:15
Roryjazzme: What graphics hardware do you have? If you don't know, use the command: "lspci | grep VGA"20:15
piccabekks: yup, free ram is usually used for buffering20:16
jazzmeunfortunately I have to leave...but will return in a while.20:16
bekkspicca: yeah.20:16
Roryjazzme: No problem20:16
RoryI'll be here, it's Friday night where else would I be?20:16
m1sf1tbekks: aye :) but with free ram, wouldn't there be no need for swappiness?20:16
bekksm1sf1t: Swappiness is not what you think it is...20:16
nashantBeldar: booted to live usb and ran boot-repair, everything's working!20:17
bekksm1sf1t: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swappiness20:17
Rory"swappiness" isn't a word you just made up m1sf1t it is a specific thing to do with how aggresive the kernel pages out20:17
m1sf1tbekks: have i got the wrong end of the stick lol?20:17
m1sf1tbekks: i thought that swappiness was like extra virtual ram for when there was no ram? am i wrong?20:17
Rorym1sf1t: That's just called "swap"20:18
bekksm1sf1t: You are wrong. I just gave you a link. :)20:18
m1sf1tjust opening it now :)20:18
CalinouRory, some games can cause xorg to use a lot of CPU20:18
Calinouor some buggy programs20:18
Hassenlmfao...can't finish one page of any IT book that I start reading..ffs20:18
piccai like what OS X is doing by compressing memory used by apps that are idle before swapping ... do you think Linux will do something similar20:18
Beldarnashant, Cool, so look into moving that boot partiton info if needed to have mbr boot if you want, I never use that tool but it does help many.20:18
m1sf1tthere's a difference between swap and swappiness? i thought swap was short for swappiness lol20:18
bekkspicca: Linux already has the ability to compress pages... :)20:19
bekksm1sf1t: There is.20:19
piccabekks: ah didn't realise that20:19
Rorypicca: Yes, the next kernel 3.14 has a feature for almost exactly that, I read it on Phoronix this morning20:19
bekks3.11 already had.20:19
m1sf1tbekks: brb just reading this wikipedia article20:19
=== anonymous is now known as Guest81335
bekksAnd the next kernel will be 3.13 ;)20:19
Rorybekks: 3.13 is out...?20:20
bekksRory: Not according to www.kernel.org20:20
Rorybekks: Isn't it? or am I confused again.20:20
bekksRory: The current kernel is 3.12.120:20
RoryOh that's right, it's League of Legends which is 3.13 (no seriously, that is the mistake I just made)20:20
RoryNo that's 3.14 now as well. Oh i don't even know. Anyway kernel 3.14 has some kind of cool compressed memory feature20:21
TomyWorki'm having trouble with pam. something is overwriting my password with "INCORRECT". any ideas?20:21
m1sf1tbekks: i'm still struggling to understand swappiness lol, i'll be sure to read up on it20:23
BluesKajbekks. what setting do recommend for swappiness on systen with 3gRAM and dual core cpu ?20:23
SBoudriasHey, I'm trying to install a newer version of Nginx. Everything goes well, apt-get report installing and setting the good version without error. But after the process, runnning nginx -v still report the old version... Any idea what is going on?20:23
m1sf1tanyone care to define swappiness suitable for the layman?20:23
bekksm1sf1t: swappiness defines the urge to swap. If set to 0, swap will be used only to keep the system alive. Set to 100, its like "swap as you can" :)20:23
randolph`SBoudrias: have you tried restarting nginx?20:24
SBoudriasrandolph`: Yeah, multiple times20:24
maokaiiis it possible to install wine on the live boot of ubuntu 12.04?20:24
maokaii"try" not install20:24
m1sf1tbekks: so when it does swap, i presume it's swapping the least important or oldest memory? so that the more frequently used stuff is more readily available?20:24
bekksm1sf1t: So you get the most benefit when almost all your RAM is used, for applications, for buffers, etc. and you system will only swap to keep the system alive.20:25
SBoudriasrandolph`: running "service nginx restart" - right?20:25
bekksm1sf1t: Correct.20:25
randolph`yeah20:25
m1sf1tbekks: that makes more sense now :D thanks very much!20:25
randolph`Are you sure it restarted?20:25
=== nk1ox__ is now known as nk1ox
BluesKajbekks. default seems to be 60 , is that an arbitrary value for all installs or is it set by the API / Hardware detection ?20:25
hydruidrandolph`: read that as retarded lol20:26
SBoudriasrandolph`: it reported me "Restarting nginx: nginx."20:26
bekksBluesKaj: It the default defined in the kernel when no other value is set.20:26
randolph`hmm, im not sure, i don't really use nginx myself, sorry20:26
RoryBluesKaj: It's also a perfectly sensible value. I'm of the opinion of stuff like swappiness, that if you needed to change it, you'd already know what you need to change it to20:26

randolph`ok20:27
SBoudriasrandolph`: Haven't worked20:27
RoryAlso that old adage of what to do when things aint broke20:27
m1sf1tbekks: so before, you mentioned that there is a difference between swap and swappiness. is swap the partition that this data is stored on, and swappiness the feature that controls RAM?20:27
BluesKajRory. yes I suppose since , I've rarely seen it used in system monitor on this pc20:27
maokaiim1sf1t: I read your guide http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ for multiboot on a usb, this will help me install ubuntu to a usb drive?20:28
bekksm1sf1t: swap space is where you memory swaps to :)20:28
m1sf1tmaokaii: i didn't write that :)20:29
Beldarmaokaii, full install or loading  ISO?20:29
bekksm1sf1t: And swappiness controls how fast you memory will swap to the swap space.20:29
m1sf1tbekks: gotcha :) the more you know ;)20:29
SBoudriasrandolph`: I tried uninstalling nginx with apt-get, seems to have removed the new installation, not the old one...20:29
SBoudriasrandolph`: Is it possible there's two version installed and the old one is taking precedence20:30
maokaiiBeldar: I was told I need to "install" ubuntu in order to install wine, instead of "try" so I guess full install but I'd like it to be on a usb flash drive20:30
m1sf1tmaokaii: install unetbootin, you can choose from a drop down box of OSs put on a bootable usb, or select your own .iso20:30
Beldarmaokaii, You need an install medium a dvd/cd/usb to install to the usb, a usb flash is not the better option than an internal HD though.20:31
xanguamaokaii: you mean to use the live iso on a usb stick or make a full install on a usb stick¿ with multiboot you can either just load the iso or make a persistent install20:31
mguyWho decided to enable sticky edges on displays by default20:32
maokaiixangua: I want to do a full install on a usb stick , its crazy I know but its the best option for me right now20:32
mguyAlmost always makes me think my mouse is screwey20:32
m1sf1tmaokaii: i agree with Beldar, a HD is much faster than a USB stick, but USB sticks are definately better for portability20:32
creekHai!20:32
maokaiim1sf1t:  yes I need the portability20:32
maokaiim1sf1t:  especially because I think my hdd is screwed20:33
m1sf1tmaokaii: i'd install unetbootin, you can get it on apt-get. it makes life so much easier :)20:33
m1sf1tmaokaii: have you run any scans on your HD?20:33
maokaiim1sf1t:  not yet trying to install all of ubuntu on a flash drive first20:34
maokaiim1sf1t: alright so ill do sudo apt-get install unetbootin ?20:34
mguyIt's just another disk really20:34
m1sf1tmaokaii: i see. Yeah use that command. note: it runs in X, not cli (as far as i know)20:35
shroomdukelsb_release -a gives me "core-2.0-ia32:core-2.0-noarch:core-3.0-ia32:..." what is all this info?20:35
maokaiim1sf1t:  no idea what you mean by X and not cli :p20:35
m1sf1tmaokaii: it uses the graphical interface, point and click :) not in a shell, or cmomand line interface20:36
xanguam1sf1t: maokaii unetbootin will just load the live iso in the usb, but there are several guides to make a persisten install to a usb stick; you can use multisystem for example http://i.imgur.com/38dwkQ1.png20:36
hydruidm1sf1t: what is the mystical graphical interface you speak of20:36
piccalol @ hydruid20:37
xanguamultisystem also doesn't need you to format the usb stick m1sf1t maokaii20:38
maokaiixangua: would you mind helping me run through that to get it setup on a usb?20:38
Roryhydruid: He means like ncurses but even shinier20:38
m1sf1thydruid: for example in windows, you have a start menu, different windows and stuff, that's a graphical user interface, or GUI for short. And a command line interface is just text on a screen where you type commands and press enter :)20:38
hydruidRory: wow......20:38
xanguamaokaii: as you read in the guide about multisystem you just have to run the script20:38
Beldarxangua, multisystem does and it is picky on its fat32 partitioning.20:38
hydruidm1sf1t: LOL yes I kknow.....it's Friday and I was being funny20:38
piccait's all too clever for me20:39
shroomdukecommand line interface = terminal20:39
maokaiixangua: yes but how do I do the process to install ubuntu onto the usb20:39
maokaiixangua:  not just a live boot20:39
m1sf1thydruid: haha oh right :) you never know! some people don't know these things :D20:39
hydruidm1sf1t: True that!20:39

urielvigilanthow to play a normal comercial DVD ? Iám with Lubuntu 13.10 and i have Lubuntu restricted extras and also i actually installed VLC, but i dont know what to do to play the DVD , how to ?20:41
shroomdukeGoogle is the god of internet search20:41
piccahydruid: must try it20:41
shroomdukedo not anger the Google20:41
maokaiixangua:  what :p20:41
Roryurielvigilant: Do you get an error when you try to play the DVD in VLC?20:41
xanguamaokaii: drag and drop... ;)20:41
hydruidurielvigilant: Open VLC and tell it to open the DVD20:41
Beldarxangua, yeah me to, I just found it to really only be happy with a gparted or windows made fat, the disks made are not seen, not sure if a cli made is fine for it.20:41
maokaiixangua:  I thought that was for only a live boot20:41
piccatime to try google brb20:41
urielvigilantRory, i dont know what file to open on the DVD20:41
m1sf1tmaokaii: i think just putting the ubuntu iso onto a usb would work fine, as any installs etc. would be saved to the stick? forgive me if i'm wrong :)20:41
Roryurielvigilant: Go to VLC then media -> open disk20:42
Roryurielvigilant: Or when you insert the DVD now you have the restricted-extras installed, you should get some sort of popup asking what you want to do (maybe, I don't know how it is in Lubuntu)20:42
xanguamaokaii: and then I pasted an image of my desktop where you can see a button to make it a persistent install (persistente) multyboot really makes all the job for you but you can also follow the persisten install wiki if you want to learn :)20:43
Beldarm1sf1t, a ISO Load with a persistent has some limitations, the persistent can't be cleaned, and in the end it is reading the ISO, some limitations on what extras can really be installed20:43
m1sf1txangua: that could work, load a live CD, then install to usb?20:44
urielvigilantRory: open a window with errors ! http://paste.ubuntu.com/6460495/20:44

urielvigilantROry , ok i will try with another .20:47

maokaiixangua: okay, using the guide I gave awhile ago. I install multiboot, then I download the desired ubuntu version from ubuntu.com I plug in another usb flash drive that I want to have the install of ubuntu on, I choose it, and then I move the ISO i downloaded from ubuntu onto it and choose persistant?20:48

robierobinstead of everthing that comes with ubuntu studio21:48
Beldarrobierob, You could do a net install of just the base than add what you want.21:48
robierob...how?21:49
wafflejockTabletTrue minimal install cd21:49
Beldarrobierob, what release?21:49
robierobummm.... yeah?21:49
Kurvivorm1sf1t: thanks!21:49
Hai_Karaterobierob - check this out. Its a base system install.  http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal21:50
robierobwell stable would be nice....and not having to compile anything21:50
wafflejockTabletrobierob: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD21:50
Hai_KarateI did the min cd and it worked great!21:50
robierobok ....i also need the realtime kernal21:50
creekShuld I move to OpenBSD?21:51
wafflejockTabletYeah did one too was pretty fun, makes me want to try arch but just getting comfy with dpkg still21:51
xanguacreek: that's up to you21:51
Hai_Karateafter the base install just add what you want.21:51
geekmasterflashcreek: Is there some feature of -BSD that you want that isn't implimented elsewhere?21:51
creekOh crap.. wrong channel..21:52
geekmasterflashcreek: Otherwise, "should" is irrelevant21:52
geekmasterflashcreek: Want to, however21:52
creeksorry, I was on #freebsd just now, I using BSD already.. :P21:52
arooni-mobiletrying to use xmodmap but when i have this in my .xmodmap file: "keycode 0x94 = Shift_L NoSymbol NoSymbol NoSymbol"  it doesnt seem to do anything.  ideas?21:52
robierobi see looks god like something i was looking for but didnt know it....21:53
reisioit's not ~/.xmodmaprc ?21:53
Hai_KarateI did a LFS install but ran into probs with wireless, then switched ti minCD command line and was much happier21:53
robierobyeah....?....my dream here is to custom roll....but still have realtime kernal and no compiling...21:54
wafflejockTabletJust did it for a c600 cause all I had was dual layer DVDs it couldn't read or CD so minimal was the only option but getting xubuntu installed was pretty easy21:54
Hai_KarateMin CD is simple, fast, and boots to a command line. log in and go from there.21:54
Beldarrobierob, The mini/net install is nice as it loads the latest of whatever release you install.21:54
Hai_Karateyep21:54
robierobhmmmm ok and which link was that you pointed me too...?21:55
robierobthere was 221:55
Beldarrobierob, Take a look at Hai_Karate's link it has nice graphics of the actual install and links to the other link posted.21:56
wafflejockTabletThe one I sent is for Ubuntu minimal https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD21:56
wafflejockTabletNo instructions there really just isos21:56
sarveshHello everybody21:57
wafflejockTabletHello sarvesh21:57
NomoHail sarvesh21:57
robierobwell i can get around with terminal ok....so i think this is what i want thanks guys....do you have time for a few more troubleshooting things?21:57

geekmasterflashrobierob: When you run steam from command, what does it say?21:59
robieroblets see21:59
wafflejockTabletsarvesh: not sure what u mean generally this channel is just Ubuntu support, are u having a problem with Ubuntu?21:59
Nomosarvesh: Nevr heard of gsoc, this is for Ubuntu help22:00
Wiz_KeeDhey guys22:00
sarveshnomo: google summer of code..22:00
Wiz_KeeDCan anyone tell me a good article to search the max network speed of a wireless card? Shopping for a new laptop and curious about this22:00
Wiz_KeeDsaw some letters at the end b g c whatever22:00
Wiz_KeeDI'm assuming there are different max speeds22:01
Hai_Karaten22:01
sarveshbut anyways i found channel for it, thanks22:01
PiciWiz_KeeD: ##hardware or ##networking would be a more appropriate place to ask.22:01
Wiz_KeeDI trust linuxers XD22:01
robierobwell dosent look good....lol  http://pastebin.com/xF4i7xnb22:01

alkamidHi. I have a laptop (Lenovo T61) and a monitor (Dell Ultrasharp 23''). The monitor worked out of the box, but stopped today (possibly after a software upgrade?). I can configure it to display in lower resolutions, but not in its native 1920x1080. Tried going back from nvidia drivers to nouveau - didn't help22:03
sarveshnomo: thanks22:03
wafflejockTabletDan9311: should be built in u check about:plugins in the browser22:03
Wiz_KeeDIdk what wireless card my laptop has wafflejockTablet but it's limited to 2mb/s always :(22:03
robierobit was working last night then i tried to install the drivers for opengl to work... now all this crap... steam wont load now and team fortress still dosent work22:03
Wiz_KeeDand that's a big bummer22:04
robierobyup...lol22:04
robierobi havent been able to kill anything in weeks....   :(22:04
NomoWiz_KeeD: that sucks indeed22:05
wafflejockTabletWiz_KeeD: shouldn't be the case wireless b is at 11 mbps22:05
Wiz_KeeDNomo, shouldn't it go a bit higher?22:05
Wiz_KeeDLinux and Windows alike, max 2mb/s22:05
wafflejockTabletG at 5422:05

robierobgeekmasterflash: what command?22:08
wafflejockTabletWiz_KeeD: ah yeah maybe on the router end22:08
wafflejockTabletHmm22:08
geekmasterflashrobierob: lspci22:08
robierobsudo?22:09
wafflejockTabletG should get 54 mbps22:09
Hai_Karatenp22:09
geekmasterflashrobierob: Shouldn't require sudo22:09
Wiz_KeeDalso, it's limited everywhere and I just pasted the speed22:09
Wiz_KeeD10mbit/s22:09
wafflejockTabletN is like 100-300 or something depending on the router etc etc22:09
geekmasterflashrobierob: lspci, then find the VGA compatable controller22:09
geekmasterflashrobierob: That will tell me your graphics card22:09
bekksWiz_KeeD: Where did you get the 10mbit/s from?22:09
Wiz_KeeDanyway, hope my new laptop will not be so limited but I really CAN'T DECIDE...trying to avoid optimus at all costs, 15 inch...dunno where to go22:09

Wiz_KeeDanyway, besides the point I just need a new laptop :(22:12

waddedMeatI'm trying to compile some C and I'm getting an error in function `ssl_send' with a list of undefined references to `ERR_clear_error', `SSL_write`, etc... anyone have ideas? (Ubuntu 12.04 desktop x86_64)22:17
seroniswaddedMeat,   'undefined reference' means you either didnt compile (and link in) a source file that has the code for that function,  or that you forgot to use the -lname  to link in the appropriate library22:18
waddedMeateverything compiles fine; I get the errors on linking22:18
seronisconsidering it mentions SSL,  its safe to assume you didnt add the ssl lib to the linker options22:18
waddedMeatseronis I have -lssl -lcrypto22:19
waddedMeatwhat really makes me upset is it compiles and runs on OSX, but I can't get it running on Ubuntu22:19
seroniswaddedMeat,  try  -lssleay and maybe -leay22:20
trismwaddedMeat: our linker is more strict, make sure the -llibrary args are at the end22:20

charlieubuntu-addict: unfortunate fact of life that it is the memory speed that finally determines application performance rather than the CPU speed. One simple task (like open big file) will not be faster on faster CPU; but i7 can keep more plates spinning at same time..22:57

zykotick9akurilin: i "didn't" think /tmp was a tmpfs by default...23:06
cheaseetried to remove bucardo installation and every file named like this, removed as much as possible from the perl/cpan modules i installed manually, then installed default ubuntu pkg but still same problem23:06
cheaseetried to reinstall perl, dpkg-reconfigure perl, but that also didnt help so i guess its really some openssl thing i broke while manually installing bucardo?23:07
akurilinbekks, zykotick9 is there a good already existing location I could use to dump temporary files to that require in-memory performance?23:07
bekksakurilin: I just changed /tmp to be mounted as /tmpfs - basically nothing in there is worth to be preserved over a reboot.23:08
tking0036Kk stupid question, how do I load all of the lines from a file into an array with bash23:08
akurilinbekks, just a change in fstab and it kicks in right away, right?23:08
MonkeyDustCptBley  if you don't get an answer here, try in #ubuntu-server23:08
bekksakurilin: Yeah. Like this: tmpfs /tmp tmpfs default,size=33% 0 023:09
bekksakurilin: I have 16GB RAM, so I dont care about that third :)23:09
akurilinbekks, do I seriously not need to reboot anything when I do that? :|23:09

CraxxyI'm trying to use wget to download wikipedia pagecount files. If i use  an url that leads to a page with .gz links it downloads the gz archives but when i try to use the same command but from an url higher up in the hierarchy it wont download the .gz files. This works as i expect: wget --recursive  --no-parent --level 3 --accept .gz --execute  robots=off http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/2013/2013-11/ -P /media/nas1/data/tes23:13
Craxxyt/   This for some reason skips the .gz files:  wget --recursive  --no-parent --level 3 --accept .gz --execute  robots=off http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/2013/ -P /media/nas1/data/test/   What options should i use with wget to be able to download all .gz files for 2013 using the url http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/2013/?23:13

pinPointi know I've asked couple times23:17

pinPointOndrej's PPA?23:17
bekkspinPoint: I wont recommend using a PPA for production usage.23:18
pinPointbut why? :)23:18
pinPointbekks: so let me ask you a question about installing from ppa.23:19
bekkspinPoint: security, trust, responsibility.23:19
pinPointif I have an older version of apache, will it overwrite it or install both versions?23:19
RorypinPoint: Not even those things really, just weird package breakages 3 weeks later that prevent you from updating and you have no idea why23:19
bekkspinPoint: IF the maintainer of the PPA built a somehow sane package, it will force you to uninstall the older version. If not - welcome to trouble.23:20
pinPointbut 2.4.6 is better than 2.2.x even it breaks it is still a newer version23:20
bekksThere is no "better" in terms of software...23:20

pinPointhe is very established in launchpad stats23:20
bekkspinPoint: Its your choice, not mine :)23:20
bekkspinPoint: If you need support for his PPA, please contact him.23:21
bekkspinPoint: This channel generally not recommedn using a PPA.23:21

rjzelli am using the instructions found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving and am on the sudo diff /home /meda/home step and am receiving a bunch of diff errors referencing /.ecryptfs/rjzell/.Private/23:32
rjzellshould all of these be different or did my rsync not work correctly?23:33
MonkeyDusttruebattleaxe  and it's ubuntu?23:33
reisiorjzell: it's probably comparing a FUSE mounted system vs one that is not23:33
reisiorjzell: so naturally it would differ23:33
reisiorjzell: run 'mount' to see what FUSE systems you have mounted23:33
reisiooh ecryptfs isn't fuse is it23:34
reisiostill, it'll probably show in mount23:34
rjzellthis is what i got: /dev/sda5 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro)23:34

FuuqUmisti am having problems installing flash, i think the flash installer can't connect to adobe's website or something. i tried these methods http://eeecoder.blogspot.ca/2013/08/flash-for-linux.html23:41
charlieCptBley: are you sure the DVD format/content is bootable by the MAC ??23:42
rjzellso, if it is mounted to FUSE systems, will it not work correctly? Do I need to abandon my attempt to move my /home to a different partition?23:42
CptBleyidk23:42
CptBleywait I am trying another approach23:42
CptBleywhats the Ubutnu website23:43
CptBleyubuntu*23:43
CptBleyis there a ubuntu server installer charlie?23:43
BeldarFuuqUmist, the flash installer connects with the repos not adobe.23:44
Beldarthe partner repo at that23:44
charlieCptBley: I am sure there is; just not sure if they provide one that is MAC specific.23:45
FuuqUmistBeldar i guess i'm having problems connecting to the repo server, how can i verify that everything is proper, like the address and keys and such23:46
BeldarFuuqUmist, This ubuntu?23:46
FuuqUmistyeah23:46
MonkeyDustFuuqUmist  just to be sure: what's the output of   cat /etc/issue23:47
