| maokaii | teamviewer from here: http://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/linux.aspx wont open for some reason | 00:08 |
| maokaii | it shows the application | 00:08 |
| maokaii | but wont open | 00:08 |
| DuncanNZ | baba: what happens when you try to open a zip file? | 00:08 |
| FloodBot1 | maokaii: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:08 |
| Beldar | baba, Are you sure you even need them, did you check the repos for them? | 00:08 |
| arvut | if I change keyboard layout with loadkeys, will everyone who logs in via ssh use that layout or use their own? | 00:09 |
| baba | DuncanNZ...they go to the downloads, but i can't extract them | 00:10 |
| truebattleaxe | does anyone have mir installed? | 00:10 |
| DuncanNZ | baba: so when you double click on them in the downloads, does anything happen? | 00:10 |
| ikonia | truebattleaxe: why don't you just ask the question you want to know the answer to | 00:11 |
| baba | something pop out to say it caant open the files | 00:11 |
| ikonia | baba: what are you downloading exactly. | 00:11 |
| ikonia | baba: please give us a real example | 00:11 |
| truebattleaxe | my sound card works. then cuts out | 00:12 |
| baba | a pakage from the fisc | 00:12 |
| truebattleaxe | would that have to do with mir | 00:12 |
| ikonia | baba: that makes no sense, please give us a real life example | 00:12 |
| ikonia | truebattleaxe: doubtful | 00:12 |
| InQuIrI | MonkeyDust: http://pastebin.com/t7uaxVDG | 00:13 |
| FuuqUmist | DuncanNZ yeah it sucks, i can't get it to work | 00:13 |
| urielvigilant | Hai_Karate : Thanks Thanks and thanks you again , about that master Karate movement you teach me. after i installed Restrictec and VLC i still not able to play DVD, but after i typed what you teach: sudo apt-get install libdvdread4 , i discovered that it was already instaled , but then i typed what you said : sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh , then i sudo apt-get update ,....... | 00:13 |
| urielvigilant | ......then sudo reboot.,. then guess , now YESSS DVD working perffectly ! Thank you very much! HAVe a nice nice Weekend. | 00:13 |
| truebattleaxe | could it be because i am running 14.04? | 00:13 |
| baba | ikonia.. im in holland and thats what i try to download http://download.belastingdienst.nl/belastingdienst/apps/linux/ib2012_linux.tar.gz | 00:13 |
| ikonia | truebattleaxe: seeing how 14.04 is in early development and will have lots of problems during the development process....probably | 00:14 |
| urielvigilant | lolo i stilll loving Lubuntu 13.10 | 00:14 |
| urielvigilant | Thanks to you community ! | 00:14 |
| truebattleaxe | got it. maybe time to revert back | 00:14 |
| maokaii | Hello, I'm trying to run teamviewer on ubuntu 12.04, when I click the application it won't run..what do I do? | 00:14 |
| ikonia | baba: please run the command "file ib2012_linux.tar.gz" against that file | 00:14 |
| baba | ikonia please tell me what to do then...im not a geek | 00:15 |
| truebattleaxe | maokaii did you update ? | 00:15 |
| ikonia | baba: please run the command "file ib2012_linux.tar.gz" against that file | 00:15 |
| truebattleaxe | sudo apt-get update? | 00:15 |
| maokaii | truebattleaxe: if u mean sudo apt-get update then yes, but that brought up more problems, maybe I should restart the live ubuntu | 00:15 |
| truebattleaxe | yes try to reboot | 00:16 |
| Ben64 | maokaii: teamviewer from live cd? | 00:16 |
| maokaii | Ben64: yes, live USB same thing | 00:16 |

| albertusac | how to solve 'firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in kies and try again'? | 00:16 |
| albertusac | I forget to install the samsung usb driver | 00:16 |
| Ben64 | maokaii: can't you use something else? like vnc..? | 00:16 |
| ikonia | albertusac: not really an ubuntu issue | 00:16 |
| maokaii | Ben64: uhh i think so, i dont know of anything else that will let someone control it form a windows machine to a ubuntu machine | 00:17 |
| stlu | hello, I am looking for a terminal gui for editing mysql tables. | 00:17 |
| albertusac | oh yea sorry | 00:17 |
| Ben64 | maokaii: vnc does that | 00:17 |
| albertusac | wrong channel | 00:17 |
| maokaii | can u link me please? | 00:17 |
| stlu | is there such a program in the ubuntu repo? | 00:17 |
| Ben64 | !vnc | maokaii | 00:17 |
| ubottu | maokaii: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 00:17 |
| urielvigilant | Today afternoon i was in a friend home, trying to install Lubuntu 13.10 on a ACer 3003 wmli with 1GB ram, from an USb persistent pen drive, but after a few minutes i can reached to the menu : chose to try or full install. I T staus black screen for a second and all black with mouse pointer in another second . . What could be the cause ? | 00:18 |
| Palsson | Watch the world first PS4 stream at twitch[dot]com[slash]Palsson123 | 00:19 |
| stlu | urielvigilant: I have seen that black screen when there were errors loading the GUI -- could the USB stick be partially corrupt? | 00:20 |
| stlu | Does anyone know if such a program exists to view/edit a mysql database in the terminal? I am thinking of an interface similar to ms-dos lotus123 spreadsheet tool. | 00:24 |
| urielvigilant | STU do you think so ? I tryed one usb with Lubuntu 13.10 and another Ubuntu 13.10 booth persisten mode, that actually runs perfectly on my ACer 5204 Wlmi with 2bGB rams | 00:25 |
| urielvigilant | STU do you think so ? I tryed one usb with Lubuntu 13.10 and another Ubuntu 13.10 booth persisten mode, that actually runs perfectly on my ACer 5204 Wlmi with 2bGB rams | 00:25 |
| urielvigilant | STLU | 00:25 |
| urielvigilant | stlu ; sorry | 00:25 |
| Ben64 | stlu: why not "mysql" ? | 00:25 |
| stlu | ben64: because 'mysql' is like 'mail' compared to 'alpine'. I'm just not ready for it, I need a little GUI | 00:26 |
| ikonia | why not use a proper gui and just connect remotely | 00:26 |
| ikonia | or learn to use the mysql shell properlyt | 00:27 |
| ikonia | as you'll waste more time looking for a tool that won't teach you anything or provide any real use outside of your current moment | 00:27 |
| KeithDou | hi | 00:27 |
| urielvigilant | stlu : i remeber now that the acer 3003 , was with windows xp and updating and i interrupted it with out vist update complete , to boot from usb, Do you think that could be the cause ? | 00:27 |
| maokaii | Ben64: im having a hard time figuring out how to connect to someone's ubuntu system from my computer. I understand I need their IP and I need to download the client on my computer | 00:28 |
| maokaii | not sure what else to do | 00:28 |
| stlu | ikonia: thanks for your advice then. I'll just throw up a post on the forums and use a X program | 00:28 |
| stlu | I'm still curious if one exists even if I won't use it. | 00:28 |
| ikonia | why ? | 00:28 |
| ikonia | if you're not going to use it, what does it matter, why waste yours/others time | 00:28 |
| stlu | urielvigilant: the state of the windows partition could affect the installation, yes. The mount program can tell if the NTFS partition is unclean. | 00:29 |
| urielvigilant | stly : should i try an antique version, like Ubuntu or Lubuntu 12. 04 ? | 00:29 |
| urielvigilant | stlu : should i try an antique version, like Ubuntu or Lubuntu 12. 04 ? | 00:30 |
| stlu | ikonia: because there may be quick uses that would save me the time of installing a gui client, such as, using putty on a windows box. | 00:30 |
| urielvigilant | stlu : ok then i should back there and try again, now after windows update finished | 00:30 |
| ikonia | stlu: missing the point a bit there, | 00:30 |
| stlu | urielvigilant: It is worth a try, but it makes no difference if both installers have problems with a corrupt ntfs partition, especially if you are trying to resize it. | 00:31 |
| Ben64 | maokaii: server needs to be running on the one you want to connect to, you need to forward necessary port(s) and you need the client on the one you want to connect from | 00:31 |
| stlu | ikonia: no, i'm not. I know I could use the | 00:31 |
| maokaii | Ben64: no easier method? | 00:31 |
| ikonia | stlu: but you just said "I won't use it".... | 00:31 |
| stlu | ikonia: no, i'm not. I know I could use the 'mysql' binary from putty, *if* I learned to use it. | 00:32 |
| urielvigilant | stlu : installer is an normal usb drive pen persisten 4 GB | 00:32 |
| Ben64 | maokaii: it's pretty easy | 00:32 |
| urielvigilant | they run perfectly almost fast as in my herdrive in my laptop | 00:32 |
| stlu | ikonia: if you don't have an answer, then don't waste our time further. I might use it infrequently, but no point debating the frequency of a program that isn't even known to exist! | 00:33 |
| === theleft__ is now known as theleft | ||
| ikonia | stlu: I don't really care if you use it or not, I've given you my answer, it's up to you what you do with it, however as even a terminal client will need to connect over a network/loopback address, you may as well just use your client properly and connect remotly than waste time looking for a limited functionality application | 00:34 |
| gassho | simmer down now | 00:34 |
| stlu | ikonia: ok. | 00:34 |
| Simi99 | Hey guys, anyone online to help? :) | 00:35 |
| === zz_megabitdragon is now known as megabitdragon | ||
| Ben64 | Simi99: there are 1693 people in the channel | 00:35 |
| geekmasterflash | Simi99: Perhaps. | 00:35 |
| gassho | hi Simi99 | 00:35 |
| sventon | hi all, I have difficulties to understand how user permissions and account security work. For example if I have two accounts on my machine and run "su name_of_other_acount" I will be promt to give a password for the the other user. Does this not mean that I just can write a script that try all possible password combinations ? | 00:36 |
| ikonia | sventon: that's called "brute force" you can of course write a script to do that | 00:36 |
| reisio | sventon: yes if you don't mind waiting potentially longer than a human life span to get it | 00:36 |
| geekmasterflash | sventon: That could potentially take thousands of years depending on complexity of passwords. | 00:37 |
| stlu | sventon: there are built-in time delays that would make things slow down and be hard to crack. | 00:37 |
| reisio | plus there's nothing stopping a system from having a denial system set up | 00:37 |
| reisio | to only give you a few opportunities | 00:37 |
| stlu | also, if I recall, Ubuntu doesn't allow use of 'su' without sudo priviliges anyway, while debian does allow it. | 00:38 |
| Simi99 | I'm dual booting ubuntu and windows 8. On Ubuntu, I can acces my windows files on my OS hard drive/users/etc... Is there anyway I can have them directly on my personal folders? I'm using seperate HDD if it's any help! Thank you:) | 00:39 |
| ikonia | you can use su without sudo | 00:39 |
| reisio | Simi99: which folders? | 00:40 |
| Beldar | Simi99, You want to be careful with changing the file system on windows your best having a shared partition. | 00:40 |
| Simi99 | My main folders: Music, Videos, etc. | 00:40 |
| reisio | Simi99: you want those folders to always be your Windows drive data, or just contain additionally that data? | 00:41 |
| Random832 | ikonia: he doesn't mean you have to literally use sudo, he means you have to be in the admin group | 00:41 |
| stlu | oh, my bad. I could have sworn there was a system that blocked su, maybe it was modified. | 00:41 |
| Ben64 | Simi99: what exactly do you mean by having them "directly on my personal folders" ? | 00:41 |
| stlu | bye though | 00:41 |
| reisio | Simi99: the simple way is with a symlink: ln -s /mnt/windows/wherever ~/WindowsShoobity | 00:41 |
| ikonia | Random832: you don't have to be in the admin group to use su | 00:41 |
| ones | #join cpp | 00:42 |
| Danato | WindowsShoobity? lol | 00:42 |
| Simi99 | symlink looks like something that would work! Can you tell me a little more? | 00:42 |
| friday_ | how add radio k-love: http://www.klove.com/listen/player.aspx in rhythmbox? | 00:43 |
| Danato | thats basically creating a shortcut to wherever you want | 00:43 |
| Simi99 | What I need is a link between my documents, music, videos, etc. on ubuntu and those same folders on windows so that I can access any files on any OS | 00:44 |
| FlurglerHobbit | Hey all. Is there a way to automatically mount external hd's after the computer has booted? | 00:44 |
| geekmasterflash | Simi99: I'd recommend a symbolic link | 00:44 |
| geekmasterflash | Simi99: That way you can avoid changing the file system on windows | 00:44 |
| geekmasterflash | Simi99: Which tends to hate that. | 00:45 |
| Danato | friday_: it worked fine for me, jst click on radio, theres a add tab | 00:45 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: so many ways | 00:45 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: why not use /etc/fstab | 00:45 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: which way do you recommend? | 00:45 |
| FlurglerHobbit | alright | 00:45 |
| friday_ | Danato, i want add in rhythmbox | 00:45 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: lsblk -f will give you the information to put in there | 00:45 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: or 'mount' after auto-mounting | 00:45 |
| Simi99 | thanks geekmaster I'll try that | 00:45 |
| Danato | friday_: yes open rythmbox, on the library bar, left side, theres Radio, click on it and theres a list of radios, click on add tab and paste your link there | 00:46 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: is there a simpler way? I seem to be doing something wrong | 00:46 |
| Danato | friday_: im listening to the radio you showed on rhytmbox right now | 00:47 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: doing it right? :) | 00:47 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: I do nothing right. | 00:47 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: :) what are your drives' named? | 00:47 |
| Beldar | bert and ernie | 00:47 |
| Johnny_Linux | D`oh! | 00:48 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: How do I found out? | 00:48 |
| Danato | friday_: ah wait, thats not right, it was another link, the one you gave me ddnt work | 00:48 |
| sventon | do anybody know where I can find documentation regarding the "built-in time delay" ? | 00:48 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: lsblk -f | 00:48 |
| reisio | sventon: _the_ built-in time delay? | 00:48 |
| friday_ | Danato, yes | 00:48 |
| mcl0vin | ubuntu 13.04 how do i disable unity and use xfce please | 00:49 |
| Obama911 | Fast, secure and stylishly simple, the Ubuntu operating system is used by 20 million people worldwide every day. | 00:49 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: sda1,2,5,sdb1,sdc1 | 00:49 |
| Danato | mcl0vin: jst logout and select the other one | 00:49 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: know which ones are the ones you want to add? | 00:49 |
| Beldar | mcl0vin, Install xfce4 ans choose it from the login dropdown, no need to disable unity. | 00:49 |
| Obama911 | Use Unity and like it. | 00:50 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: Is there a way I can find out what the HD's are actually named? Because I didn't name any of them like this. So I honestly don't know which is which | 00:50 |
| FlurglerHobbit | I guess I should try sdb1,sdc1 | 00:50 |
| Obama911 | Try KDE. | 00:50 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: lsblk -f would say | 00:51 |
| sventon | reisio: stlu mentioned that "there are built-in time delays that would make things slow down and be hard to crack" regarding brutal force a account | 00:51 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: yes i did install xfce light | 00:51 |
| Obama911 | KDE looks better than XFCE. | 00:51 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: Then I am afraid they don't have names? | 00:51 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: ah, what distro are you using? | 00:52 |
| picca | how is KDE 4 these days .. last time i used it was KDE 3.54 or something | 00:52 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: try /sbin/blkid | 00:52 |
| Beldar | mcl0vin, not sure about light never heard of it, but the desktop is chosen at login. | 00:52 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: Xubuntu | 00:52 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: okay so i am at the login screen i don't see xfce | 00:52 |
| sventon | reisio: stlu has left so I can't ask him :( | 00:52 |
| reisio | sventon: oh, it doesn't matter | 00:52 |
| reisio | sventon: what is it you really want to know | 00:52 |
| Beldar | mcl0vin, click the gear dropdown at the right of the list line. | 00:52 |
| lachesis | man all the good handles are taken now | 00:52 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: all i see is susped , restart ad shutdow | 00:53 |
| Obama911 | One day you're here, one day you're there. | 00:53 |
| Beldar | mcl0vin, That is not the right plave to click it is the gear next to wgere the actual desktop is shown. | 00:54 |
| reisio | Johnny_Linux: {{fact}} | 00:54 |
| Beldar | where* | 00:54 |
| FlurglerHobbit | reisio: So, how would I go about mounting said HD | 00:55 |
| FlurglerHobbit | after lsblk | 00:55 |
| reisio | FlurglerHobbit: ideally you'd get the LABEL or UUID value, do you have that? | 00:55 |
| FlurglerHobbit | Afraid not :/ | 00:55 |
| FlurglerHobbit | It's just blank | 00:55 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: i dont understand | 00:56 |
| Beldar | mcl0vin, Are you at the login screen? | 00:56 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: we are talking about the login screen , gear at the top right next to the clock | 00:56 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: yes | 00:56 |
| Beldar | mcl0vin, look for a gear very close to where you type the password | 00:57 |
| Ben64 | FlurglerHobbit: sudo blkid | 00:57 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: okay i see what you mean | 00:57 |
| Simi99 | @geerkmasterflash whats wrong with my command : ln -s /media/simon/OS/Users/Simon /home/simon | 00:59 |
| Simi99 | *or anyone else | 00:59 |
| bekks | Simi99: Use: ln -s /media/simon/OS/Users/Simon /home/simon/externaldrive | 00:59 |
| bekks | Simi99: You cannot symlink a home dir that easily. | 00:59 |
| mcl0vin | Beldar: okay i got it , thank you ;). another question please. i want to set this box as a headless server. so how can i open xfce in my windows | 01:01 |
| Ben64 | mcl0vin: servers usually don't have gui at all | 01:01 |
| Beldar | mcl0vin, not sure there. | 01:01 |
| Boneheads1999 | So I still have the same problem.. When I click "buy..." on a program in Ubuntu software center, it loads up the Ubuntu One login. I have an ubuntu one account and am glad to log in, except the page has no text. just boxes and squares and the ubuntu one logo. | 01:09 |
| reisio | Boneheads1999: no doubt a bug covered on launchpad.net | 01:10 |
| mcl0vin | when you first access xfce it ask you if you want to use blank template or already made one. how can i bring that question again | 01:11 |
| Boneheads1999 | reisio so what can I do | 01:11 |
| pinPoint | hey I have an issue with installing... http://pastebin.com/GCakEYQ9 | 01:11 |
| bekks | pinPoint: Well, ask the PPA maintainer please. | 01:12 |
| Boneheads1999 | I mean this is ridiculous. All I want to do is "buy" minitube (minitube-ubuntu). Except I have to pay money. That amount is $0.00. I should be able to install it for free.. | 01:12 |
| reisio | Boneheads1999: find its listing on launchpad, do whatever's said to fix it | 01:12 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: please dont use pastebin.com | 01:12 |
| topper4125 | I have a MotherBoard that will run IDE drives just fine, but it won't recognize SATA at all (one of my SATA Drives when plugged in got too hot to touch after about 20 seconds, and is now a paperweight)... I'm guessing just replace the mothboard, or go with just the biggest HDD i can find for IDE, and just live with it (which is about 320GB after a bit of searching)... Both 'fixes' are about the same price... what idea do you think is be | 01:12 |
| topper4125 | tter? | 01:12 |
| pinPoint | pfifo: why, whats wrong with it? | 01:13 |
| xangua | Boneheads1999: you just have to log in with an ubuntu one account | 01:13 |
| reisio | Boneheads1999: hit CTRL+ALT+t, type 'sudo apt-get install minitube' | 01:13 |
| xangua | Boneheads1999: if you have a launchpad or ubuntu forums account you have one | 01:13 |
| Boneheads1999 | xangua: I have an ubuntu one account. But I have no idea what to enter in because there's no text | 01:13 |
| kostkon | Boneheads1999, try reinstalling usc | 01:14 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: ads, poor support for pasted text, other stuff | 01:14 |
| pinPoint | ah | 01:14 |
| Boneheads1999 | kostkon how do I do that? (sorry for the dumb question) | 01:14 |
| Ben64 | Boneheads1999: sudo apt-get install minitube? | 01:14 |
| FuuqUmist | hey guys, i got it working! | 01:14 |
| topper4125 | !yay | FuuqUmist | 01:14 |
| ubottu | FuuqUmist: Glad you made it! :-) | 01:15 |
| pfifo | Boneheads1999: cant you figure out which one is username and which one is password and work around this? | 01:15 |
| minimec | pinPoint: You seem to have added an additional source 'debphp.org', and that one seems to conflict with the packages from the precise sources repository. | 01:15 |

| minimec | pinPoint: I would remove that source... | 01:15 |
| pinPoint | minimec: the new source? I want 2.4.6 | 01:16 |
| xangua | Boneheads1999: just hit buy and you are directed to ubuntu one login | 01:16 |
| pinPoint | but I guess something from 2.2 is left over | 01:16 |
| kostkon | Boneheads1999, sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install software-center --reinstall | 01:16 |
| kostkon | Boneheads1999, give that cmd | 01:17 |
| pfifo | topper4125: check your motherboard's manufacturer's website for a bios update that could perhaps fix the issue | 01:17 |
| Boneheads1999 | because there are 10 people talking to me | 01:17 |
| topper4125 | OOh... didn't even think of that... will do pfifo, thanks! | 01:18 |
| Boneheads1999 | Ben64: doing "sudo apt-get install minitube" installs the crappy minitube. There's 2 in the software center. The 2nd one (the one you have to buy) is the one that actually plays video | 01:18 |
| Ben64 | Boneheads1999: ah | 01:19 |
| Boneheads1999 | kostkon: I'm reinstalling USC now. | 01:20 |
| kostkon | Boneheads1999, ok hopefully will fix it | 01:21 |
| aPpYe | I am trying to figure out some bash that will look at a list of packages and return what ones (if any) are already dependencies of others in the list. | 01:22 |
| pinPoint | minimec: after doing a google, it being suggested I do a 'sudo apt-get -f install'. What do you think? | 01:23 |
| pinPoint | it is* | 01:24 |
| minimec | pinPoint: Well.. You can try that. I don't think it will work, but you will not brake the system normally. | 01:24 |
| Simi99 | Hi all! I used sym link between my Windows OS folder like Documents and my /home/User/Documents. My little problem is that with my file explorer, when I click on "Documents" I see my Document folder and only when I click on that folder I see my files. Is it possible to see my files directly? | 01:25 |
| Ben64 | Simi99: what? | 01:25 |
| pinPoint | minimec: I do not understand what I have to take out in my sources? | 01:25 |
| pfifo | Simi99: i think you have to remove the Documents folder and replace it with a symlink, it sounds like you made a link you you windows documents inside of your documents folder | 01:27 |
| minimec | pinPoint: Why do you need apache 2.4.6? I would remove that additional source (ppa) you added. The ubuntu package system cannot resolv the package conflicts on your system right now. I would first bring it back into a stable state. | 01:28 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: run 'sudo apt-get update' and then retry the install of apache | 01:29 |
| b0x | i changed my date/time settings to different time | 01:29 |
| pinPoint | pfifo: I did | 01:29 |
| pinPoint | right after adding the ppa | 01:29 |
| b0x | now the status bar 'time' just stays the same | 01:29 |
| Simi99 | @pfifo, yes that's what I did: ln -s /media/simon/OS/Users/Simon/Documents /home/simon/Documents . What is a better alternative? | 01:29 |
| b0x | as the time when i changed it | 01:30 |
| b0x | is there something i can reset? | 01:30 |
| maokaii | Does anybody have a guide for connecting to a ubuntu system using windows 7 to be able to view or control? Everything I find is for lan connections | 01:30 |
| topper4125 | anyone know of a package that I can run to see what version of BIOS I am running, or do I just need to reboot and check from there? | 01:30 |
| Ben64 | maokaii: theres no difference between lan and wan | 01:30 |
| b0x | maokaii: vnc? | 01:30 |
| b0x | and what Ben64 said | 01:30 |
| Ben64 | Simi99: thats not the same, you made documents inside of documents | 01:30 |
| b0x | vnc / teamviewer / logmein ? | 01:31 |
| maokaii | b0x: ben64 when I say lan, I mean, from like one country to another, or one state to another. b0x idk how to work this VNC | 01:31 |
| b0x | use teamviewer | 01:31 |
| Ben64 | maokaii: lan = local area network. i'm not sure what you're talking about | 01:31 |
| b0x | its easy | 01:31 |
| Simi99 | @Ben64 How can I do it otherwise? | 01:31 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: ohh your using a PPA, well thats not supported here, to get help you will either have to use software from the repos or contact the maintainer of the PPA | 01:31 |
| b0x | http://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/linux.aspx | 01:31 |
| maokaii | b0x I installed teamviewer on the linux but the application wouldn't run for some reason | 01:31 |
| pinPoint | could I install my apache 2.4.6 from say ubuntu 13.10 into my 12.04? Is that possible? | 01:32 |
| Ben64 | Simi99: remove the documents folder in ubuntu, make sure you back up anything that is in there. then symlink the windows directory there | 01:32 |
| reisio | pinPoint: most things to do with software are possible, doesn't make them smart | 01:33 |
| minimec | pinPoint: That is in fact possible, but you have to know what you are doing. It's called apt pinning. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 01:33 |
| Simi99 | @Ben64 Ty! | 01:33 |
| xangua | pinPoint: it is not recomended to mix repositories version/packages; you can either search for a ppa or compile it yourself, you are on your own in both | 01:33 |
| pfifo | Simi99: and that made a link at the location '/home/simon/Documents/Documents' notice the double there? You need to 'mv /home/simon/Documents /home/simon/DontDeleteThis && ln -sf /media/simon/OS/Users/Simon/Documents /home/simon/Documents' | 01:33 |
| pinPoint | man oh man. this sucks | 01:34 |
| pinPoint | I already removed my 2.2.22 | 01:34 |
| pinPoint | I guess im sol now | 01:34 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: whats wrong with the version from the repos? | 01:35 |
| pinPoint | i want 2.4 not 2.2 which my 12.04lts can get | 01:35 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: but why? | 01:35 |
| pinPoint | increased security | 01:36 |
| hitsujiTMO | pinPoint: 2.4 does NOT bring increased security, just increased headaches. | 01:37 |
| minimec | pinPoint: Adding a ppa is less secure than using a apache version maintained by your distro. Your argument is wrong. | 01:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | pinPoint: 2.4 simply adds new features and new configuration changes. | 01:37 |
| kostkon | pinPoint, ubuntuu pckgs are always patched against vulnerabilities | 01:37 |
| === fishduck is now known as dishduck | ||
| pfifo | pinPoint: I recommend compiling apache yourself in your use case, that will allow you to run any version you want and even add extra patches that ubuntu dosent have. | 01:38 |

| dbrooks | my machine tried to install a new kernel version (3.8.0-33) and it bricked apt-get (it keeps complaining about unmet dependencies). How do I 1) get rid of the updated kernel image and 2) unbrick apt-get? | 01:39 |
| topper4125_ | pfifo, there are a ton of BIOS updates for my Motherboard, do I need the newest one, or all of them from what I have to latest? | 01:39 |

| ubottu | pinPoint: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall | 01:39 |
| Simi99 | @pfifo it worked thanks, whats the difference between ln -s and ln -sf? | 01:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: can you pastebin the full error for apt-get please | 01:39 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO: sure, give me a moment | 01:40 |
| pfifo | topper4125_: you can only have one BIOS so you likely want the latest one, read carefully what it fixes, and follow instructions letter by letter so you dont brick your machine | 01:40 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: also is this 12.04 or 13.04? | 01:41 |
| topper4125_ | pfifo, Will do... just was't sure if I needed to grab the 8 updates avail from the version I'm running and latest avail. | 01:41 |
| dbrooks | 13.04, lubuntu running xfce | 01:42 |
| pfifo | Simi99: the 'f' means follow, it dose nothing in this case, I just always use '-sf' if it happened that your /media/simon/OS/Users/Simon/Documents was also a symlink, it would have followed it until it eventually found an actual file or folder | 01:42 |
| pinPoint | pfifo: how can I remove all these dependencies? | 01:42 |

| pfifo | !ppapurge | pinPoint | 01:42 |
| ubottu | pinPoint: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 01:42 |

| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: have you run: sudo apt-get -f install | 01:44 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, yes | 01:44 |
| pinPoint | so I started in #httpd, they recommended to use a package manager. I come here, you recommend I build from source... | 01:44 |
| pinPoint | this is just too much... something has to give | 01:44 |
| rtd2 | Are there any security consultants available for work? | 01:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: what is the output of: uname -r | 01:44 |
| === g_byers is now known as gbyers[Away] | ||
| minimec | pinPoint: That's not true. At least 4 people here gave you the advice to disabe/remove that ppa first and run the apache version provided by ubuntu 12.04. | 01:45 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: they (implied) recommended you use the version that the package manger gives you | 01:45 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, I think the actual problem has to do with there not being enough space in /boot for the new kernel image, but I don't want to upgrade the kernel anyways (it just tried to do it because autoupdates got installed) | 01:45 |
| pinPoint | i want 2.4.6 though | 01:45 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, 3.8.0-19-generic | 01:45 |
| pinPoint | I want support for stronger CypherSuites and forward secrecy | 01:46 |
| pfifo | pinPoint: if you have to have that version then you have to build it yourself | 01:46 |
| minimec | pinPoint: You can take that advice, or leave it. You probably want a running apache2 server, right? | 01:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: that's not a problem. can you pastebin the output of: dpkg --get-selections | grep linux- | 01:46 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, sure | 01:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: we'll just purge the old kernels and manually install the dependencies to resolve the issue | 01:47 |
| bekks | pinPoint: As you can see - ask the maintainer of the PPA for fixing it. Or build apache2 yourself. | 01:47 |
| pinPoint | ok | 01:47 |
| bekks | pinPoint: Not that I told you the same a few days ago ;) | 01:48 |
| pinPoint | bekks: So if I build from source, will the dependecies get in the way? | 01:48 |
| bekks | pinPoint: If you fix them, yes. If not, no. | 01:48 |
| bekks | pinPoint: That depends on your skills in package building. | 01:48 |
| pinPoint | so let them be is what you're saying? | 01:48 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, pastebin.com/tY57EwMr | 01:48 |

| d-tox | Has anyone been able to install adobeair correctly and get programs using adobeair to run? I think this is an issue because ia32-libs is no longer present in repos | 01:49 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, I don't want this new kernel though? | 01:49 |
| bekks | pinPoint: If you dont know how to do it - dont do it. Use the stock apache2 package from the official repos. | 01:49 |
| pinPoint | bekks: I was thinking this: http://itstuffallaround.blogspot.com/2013/09/configuring-apache-server-from-source.html | 01:49 |
| bekks | pinPoint: I will not guide you to use anything else than the stock ubuntu repo packages. | 01:50 |
| pinPoint | bekks: sigh | 01:50 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: space shouldn't be an issue in /boot with such few kernels. can you pastebin: df -h | 01:50 |
| bekks | pinPoint: If you want to walk your own path on using an unsupported package - walk that path. And challenge the difficulties. | 01:51 |
| pinPoint | so i shall leave those dependencies and build from scratch then | 01:52 |
| bekks | pinPoint: No. You should use the stock ubuntu packages. How often will you ask that again? | 01:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: its ok, you can remove remove the new kernels and linux-generic after and rerun update grub and that will keep you at 19. is there a particular reason why you do not want kernel updates? | 01:52 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, actually you are right, it is not a space issue because apparently I didn't create a seperate partition for /boot, and nothing is close to being filled up | 01:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | dbrooks: can you tell me the output of: uname -a | 01:53 |
| d-tox | does anyone know if there is a way to get back ia-32libs in the newest ubuntu repos | 01:54 |
| dbrooks | hitsujiTMO, yeah, I'm running on an old laptop with an intel celeron-m processor that has something crappy about it that won't let me run straight up ubuntu (hince, some special build of lubuntu) | 01:54 |
| Ben64 | d-tox: use multiarch to get whichever 32 bit libraries you need, ia32libs was a bad hacky package | 01:54 |

| Beldar | maokaii, What is your definition of install here? | 03:31 |

| maokaii | Beldar: whatever you guys think it is, on ubuntu it shows "install" on the left side, and im in a live "try" mode, I dont want to install it to the hard drive, I want it installed on a usb drive so I can use wine | 03:31 |

| pfifo | sgp667: mir will be coming soon, you can try out the latest stuff tho | 03:39 |
| zykotick9 | sgp667: lightweight alternative to xorg - i don't think that exists? what are you "actually" looking for exactly? | 03:39 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: yes please | 03:39 |
| Simi90 | it didnt work for me | 03:39 |
| fishcooker | i've got grub>.. what should i do? | 03:39 |
| fishcooker | i've failed install .. stop on grub install on hardisk step | 03:39 |
| geekmasterflash | sgp667: xorg is pretty lightweight, it's the DE and DM that tend to be bloated | 03:40 |
| MKCoin | pfifo: here http://paste.ubuntu.com/6461831/ | 03:40 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, give more details. | 03:40 |
| sgp667 | zykotick9, pfifo basically I instaled lubuntu on an old computer and Xorg actually uses a lot of CPU sometimes | 03:40 |
| geekmasterflash | sgp667: That's because other programs are using xorg too | 03:40 |
| geekmasterflash | sgp667: Firefox and gnome-system-manager are pretty good examples of it | 03:41 |
| geekmasterflash | sgp667: Use one, and suddenly xorg gets huge | 03:41 |
| zykotick9 | sgp667: xorg+lxde is close to as light a GUI as you're going to get (while still having a DE) | 03:41 |
| fixmypc956 | pfifo: this is what I did http://paste.ubuntu.com/6461833/ | 03:41 |
| Beldar | !grub | fishcooker | 03:41 |
| ubottu | fishcooker: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 03:41 |
| sgp667 | geekmasterflash you are right because its especially during firefox that i notice this | 03:41 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: you seem to have missed a step in my instructions, you need to 'sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d' | 03:41 |
| sgp667 | zykotick9 :( I was afraid of that | 03:42 |
| fishcooker | actually my ubuntu server installation doesn't finish .. it stops when grub step.. then the box panic | 03:42 |
| geekmasterflash | sgp667: Yeah, that's not really xorg's fault, but if you are just looking at it from a memory usage/processor usage standpoint it can look like it | 03:42 |
| fixmypc956 | pfifo: what should I tweak | 03:42 |
| MKCoin | pfifo: No I did do that. When I run it again: No diversion 'any diversion of /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d', none removed. | 03:42 |
| pfifo | fixmypc956: like yo may not want to mount it to /home, perhaps a different location, and you may want to have the filesystem checked so changing the second 0 to a 2 might be a good example | 03:43 |

| pfifo | MKCoin: try 'sudo ls -la /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d*' | 03:47 |
| zykotick9 | !webmin | fixmypc956 NO! | 03:48 |
| ubottu | fixmypc956 NO!: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 03:48 |

| fishcooker | finished and no error | 03:50 |

| pfifo | fixmypc956: read that info ubottu gave you | 03:52 |
| fixmypc956 | ok let me read that see what I can pick up from it | 03:52 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, You ran that from where and how? | 03:54 |
| MKCoin | pfifo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6461869/ | 03:54 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, Try the bootrepair app in the bots grub links, and be sure to save the bootinfo summary. | 03:55 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: ok then just 'sudo mv /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d.distrib /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d' and then try your update again | 03:56 |
| MKCoin | move or copy? | 03:56 |
| MKCoin | in case this happens again lol | 03:57 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: you can make a backup but, in the end make sure there isnt a file named '/usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d.distrib' it needs to be backed up elsewhere | 03:57 |
| MKCoin | ok | 03:58 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: but that file is easilly replaceable, its in the package sysv-rc | 03:58 |
| MKCoin | thanks | 03:58 |
| fishcooker | its command line, Beldar AFAIK the apps only grub-install | 03:58 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, grub-install is a command not an app. | 03:59 |
| MKCoin | bleh, throwing the old error now. | 04:00 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: its trying to upgrade procps AGAIN? | 04:00 |
| MKCoin | yeah | 04:00 |
| XMLnewbi | wow, so I just got a Beaglebone to boot on ubuntu 13.04, but it wont update, and the lan internet doesnt seem to be working | 04:00 |
| XMLnewbi | not even sure where to start on lan drivers | 04:01 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: well you can fix it again using the same method, add the diversion, make a symlink, update and upgrade, remove symlink, remove diversion | 04:01 |
| MKCoin | Ok, I will try that again. | 04:01 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: hopefully at some point your procps will be current and this will all be over | 04:02 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, I would be interested in seeing the bootinfo summary from the boot repair app to give any real advice. | 04:02 |
| Simi90 | hi all! My home folders (Pictures, Documents..) names are in english, while I run Ubuntu in french, how I revert them to french (It causes softlink issues) | 04:03 |
| MKCoin | Alright pfifo, I did it all again and it worked. Perhaps I mistyped the first time or whatever. Thank you for all your help. | 04:03 |
| MKCoin | "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." beautiful | 04:04 |
| xangua | Simi90: adding xdg-user-dirs-gtk-update command to startup didn't work¿ do you have french language packages set up¿ did you ever deleted your main directories and create them aggain¿ | 04:05 |
| pfifo | MKCoin: cheers | 04:06 |
| Simi90 | xangua: it didnt work for me. I'm not really sure if I have french package but everything else on my OS is in french | 04:06 |
| Simi90 | xangua: and the only modifications I made with them were adding softink to an other HDD | 04:07 |
| xangua | Simi90: is this a fresh install¿ you can check in language support, it will tell you if your language is or not fully installed | 04:08 |
| tbird | how do i sudo from a second user account i set up? | 04:09 |
| reisio | tbird: admin group? | 04:10 |
| bean | tbird, add it to the "admin" group I think. | 04:10 |
| tbird | its says im in admin group in users and groups, but when i sudo, it wont accept the password | 04:10 |
| reisio | tbird: what says? | 04:10 |
| tbird | terminal emulator | 04:10 |
| reisio | tbird: how do you make it say | 04:10 |
| tbird | gksudo thunar | 04:11 |
| reisio | gksudo says you're in the admin groups? | 04:11 |
| Simi90 | xangua: it seems to be fully installed, it's been only a week since I've installed Ubuntu but it worked fine until I changed the language to english and then turned back to french | 04:11 |
| fishcooker | this is server, Beldar | 04:11 |
| reisio | tbird: run this: groups | grep admin | 04:11 |
| fishcooker | there is no gui thing here | 04:11 |
| tbird | oh no its whatever users and group applet that comes installed by default | 04:11 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, I know. | 04:11 |
| XMLnewbi | hmm, I know this lan is live, but getting no internet. ifconfig it says its ip is 127.0.0.1 not sure where to start debugging | 04:12 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, You will need a live dvd/usb to fix this with or manually boot from grub> to the cli to fix. | 04:14 |
| fishcooker | is there any direction | 04:14 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, for? | 04:15 |
| fishcooker | http://shantanucse.blogspot.com/2011/10/how-to-recover-ubuntu-904-or-higher.html | 04:15 |
| fishcooker | no hope | 04:15 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: tbird guys, you need to be in the "sudo" group, admin doesn't have anything to do with sudo use anymore. | 04:15 |
| tbird | yeah i put myself into sudo group in the users and groups thingy. i don't see myself in the groups | grep admin | 04:16 |
| pfifo | tbird: are you sure your using the right password? | 04:17 |
| qbmaniac | hello! | 04:17 |
| tbird | i've tried the root password, the main users password, and the secondary users password and it doesnt like any of it | 04:17 |
| zykotick9 | tbird: i don't even have an "admin" group? if you added yourself to a new group (ie sudo) - you NEED to log out and back in for it to apply! | 04:17 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, If you followed that link and it did not work than you will have to use other methods, there a handful. | 04:18 |
| tbird | that user was not logged in. i am logged into the primary user account to make changes | 04:18 |
| pfifo | tbird: sudo wants the password of the user who is running it, so if you sun sudo as user2, and you enter user1's password... fail, also if you never set a password for user2... fail | 04:18 |
| tbird | do i need to restart or something? | 04:18 |
| fishcooker | which one, Beldar | 04:18 |
| qbmaniac | tbird: restarting is rarely the solution in linux | 04:18 |
| fishcooker | any the best method? | 04:18 |
| Beldar | fishcooker, Did you see the grub info from the bot? | 04:18 |

| zykotick9 | pfifo: ;) hey scrot was what i was thinking of... but didn't have the guts to suggest | 04:24 |
| * zykotick9 did have an issue yesterday where scrot didn't capture mplayer output correctly (it was transparent for some reason) haven't looked into it yet, used a workaround | 04:26 | |
| pfifo | zykotick9: sounds like mplayer was using a video overlay, scrot wouldnt be able to access the info in the framebuffer, mplayer has options to use a video output device that dosent use an overlay, but it will reduce performance | 04:28 |
| zykotick9 | pfifo: i've used scrot a million times to capture mplayer output.. this is the 1st time i've seen this issue... but, ya might first guess is mplayer -vo option as well! BUT it could also be an nvidia-propritary issue (that's where this issue first showed it's ugly head ;) my other systems are all libre/free | 04:29 |
| zykotick9 | s/ya might/ya my/ | 04:30 |
| pfifo | zykotick9: that makes it sound even more like an overlay, mplayer would definatly want to take advantage of the features of your graphics card once drivers are installed | 04:31 |
| pfifo | i think the default vo is GL which would be directly affected by changin to the propierty driver | 04:32 |
| zykotick9 | pfifo: i'll play with it ;) it sucked, 'cause i was in a RUSH to get a screenshot - ever used backtrack/kali? check this out - https://pumpdog.me/zykotick9/image/y6JMXuF2QxaWgJHcdKiOKw (i hope you can see that image) </OT> | 04:35 |

| wheatthin | First clue, open process manager and check :) | 05:22 |
| geekmasterflash | That's just it | 05:22 |
| geekmasterflash | Nothing there is out of the ordinary | 05:22 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: Temperature is was 40c at last crash | 05:22 |
| wheatthin | secondly, check your logs.. the size matters | 05:22 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: Which log? I am something of a newbie | 05:22 |
| wheatthin | check all logs for their size.. anything over 1gb would cause system to crawl.. I dunno about crashing.. | 05:23 |
| wheatthin | check dmesg in the terminal, see if there's anything listed in there | 05:23 |

| geekmasterflash | vadi: I have an MSi Nvidia card in my system right now | 05:31 |
| reisio | vadi: those people make video cards? | 05:31 |
| geekmasterflash | vadi: And I am currently asking for help about random crashes | 05:31 |
| vadi | I know it's the chipset; but it's the brand that supports the video card. | 05:31 |
| vadi | ... oh, dear | 05:32 |
| geekmasterflash | vadi: Which I think might be related to the video | 05:32 |
| reisio | supports :p | 05:32 |
| wheatthin | neg. | 05:32 |
| bhag_ | geekmasterflash: It is having a dual boot and windows working fine | 05:32 |
| SleePy | I need to install a package on a server, apt is telling me "The following packages will be REMOVED". is there a way to prevent it from removing those packages? | 05:32 |
| geekmasterflash | bhag_: Okay, so boot it up and get to GRUB | 05:32 |
| bhag_ | geekmasterflash: I dont think its a hardware issue. Seems like some problem with video driver | 05:33 |
| geekmasterflash | bhag_: And there should be a recovery mode there | 05:33 |
| geekmasterflash | bhag_: Unlikely | 05:33 |
| geekmasterflash | bhag_: Because cnt;+alt+f1 should bring you to command line | 05:33 |
| bhag_ | geekmasterflash: I will try the recovery | 05:33 |
| geekmasterflash | bhag_: Since it's not, that means linux never loaded | 05:33 |
| scipy53 | I suddenly have developed a problem with flash not working in my browsers. I tried re-installing and all a few times now, no luck. Anyone else having such a problem? | 05:35 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: So presuming it's my video card, is there some log I could look at that would tell me what was going on when it froze up? | 05:35 |
| wheatthin | dmesg and Xorg.log.0 or whatever | 05:35 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: Whoa | 05:37 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: dmesg is mostly greek to me, but in my log I see something very strange | 05:38 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: At the time of my crash I see /00/00/00/00/00 | 05:38 |
| geekmasterflash | Written dozens of times | 05:38 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: then what appears to be the log starting over for the next boot | 05:38 |
| wheatthin | geekmasterflash, you have you look at the end of the error, and see if it has an error code. Most likely it is hardware related, but which hardware I do not know. | 05:43 |
| wheatthin | during the crash itself, did your computer let out any beep codes? | 05:44 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: That's just it, there is no error | 05:44 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: I see some (WW) lists, but they are mostly just telling me that they can't verify my HorizSync range | 05:45 |
| wheatthin | that could be a problem of the video not turning on. | 05:45 |
| wheatthin | EIDE failing | 05:45 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: Obviously my video is working. We are having this conversation from the machine in question | 05:46 |
| wheatthin | right, but might be a sign about the monitor going out. | 05:46 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: That would cause a total system freeze? | 05:46 |
| Ben64 | geekmasterflash: what version of ubuntu? you should run a ssh server to see if that responds during a crash | 05:46 |
| wheatthin | no, but would make it seem like it. | 05:46 |
| wheatthin | ^^ | 05:47 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: I am on 13.10 Gnome-Ubuntu 64bit | 05:47 |
| Ben64 | system specs? | 05:47 |
| geekmasterflash | wheatthin: But REISUB didn't respond | 05:47 |
| maccam__ | wheatthin: that place is like a tomb. Can you recommend a lively linux irc channel that can help me with my server questions? | 05:47 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: AMD FX(tm)-9590 Eight-Core Processor × 8 GeForce GTX 660/PCIe/SSE2 15.6 GiB memory | 05:48 |
| Ben64 | maccam__: ask your question | 05:48 |
| wheatthin | maccam__, Just be patient, usually the people in here are in there too | 05:48 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: 60 GB SSD (/) and 500 GB HDD (/home) | 05:48 |
| Ben64 | geekmasterflash: 8 gpus? | 05:48 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: 8 cores on my processor | 05:48 |

| Ben64 | this is not a test channel, go somewhere else | 05:50 |
| Dante123 | Testing android irc app, grumpy today or what? | 05:51 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: It's odd, my system is stable right now with not music playing and no webcam on. Once I start both, it crashes about 5 minutes later | 05:51 |
| Ben64 | Dante123: there are 1641 people here, the channel needs to stay on topic. if you want to spam meaningless lines, make your own channel | 05:52 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: I can even stress test the gpu and it wont die on me | 05:52 |
| Ben64 | geekmasterflash: install a ssh server and monitor what happens when you start both | 05:53 |
| Dante123 | Two lines consisting of 8 letters total hardly constitutes spam. Chill. | 05:53 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: Okay, installing the ssh server I think I can do. How would I monitor once I ssh in? | 05:53 |
| Ben64 | Dante123: its the channel rules. just stop. it's very easy to make your own channel to spam in | 05:54 |

| arun | sorry | 06:03 |
| arun | Beldar: yes | 06:03 |
| xmetal | hmm | 06:04 |
| Beldar | arun, Use the command line or the ubuntu software center. | 06:04 |
| arun | Ben64: yes, but many guys uses this , so, I was asking how to fix that !!! If I don't violate the privacy !! | 06:04 |
| arun | Beldar: can't I fix that thing ?? | 06:04 |
| arun | Beldar: I liked it but, I was wanting to fix the problem !!! | 06:04 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: So | 06:05 |
| Beldar | arun, never heard of it in 7 years of using ubuntu, ppa's are not supported here is all. | 06:05 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: It crashed | 06:05 |
| Ben64 | arun: again, we cannot support that derivative here | 06:05 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: And I can't ssh to it | 06:05 |
| Ben64 | geekmasterflash_: :( | 06:05 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: So it's not just my monitor or xorg dying | 06:05 |
| Ben64 | geekmasterflash: so what are the actual things that prompt it to crash? | 06:05 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: It's definately a system lockup | 06:05 |
| Ben64 | you said music and webcam? which apps | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: Firefox | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: Clementine | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: Flash | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: Basically nothing else | 06:06 |
| Ben64 | have you tried just one of those at a time | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: Yes, it's stable | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: I can watch youtube videos all day | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: Listen to music | 06:06 |
| geekmasterflash_ | Ben64: but the second I do this, whole system lock | 06:07 |

| awyea | hi im trying to configure outside access to my nginx server, but the port seems to be closed - i forwarded the port on the router, but the problem seems to be with my ubuntu server, either iptables or the firewall(which i think i disabled - not permanent) what should i try? | 06:09 |
| Ben64 | awyea: use nmap to verify the port is open on the correct interface | 06:10 |
| zerooneone | how do i find the *actual* upstream version of ruby that's in ruby Version: 1.9.3.0-1ubuntu2.7 without installing it? | 06:10 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: Sorry, for some reason I couldnt send after changing my nick | 06:11 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: "this" seems to be playing clementine and using the webcam, but it could also be using the sound and video at once | 06:12 |
| Ben64 | the only thing i could think of is a pulseaudio problem, but i'm biased against pulseaudio | 06:12 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: I am not positive what is causing it other than right now, the second I play music and start chatting I am bound to crash within 5 minutes | 06:13 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: You don't think it could be my video card? | 06:13 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: Alright, let me kill pulse audio and try it | 06:14 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: See if that causes it to happen again | 06:14 |

| vedic | is it possible to find if somebody has tried logging into the server via Live CD? or single user mode? | 06:54 |
| vedic | I checked "last reboot|less" and it says that few days back somebody had restarted the remote server. I want to know if he was successful in logging in by any means | 06:54 |

| reisio | vedic: physical access is guaranteed access, even if it's encrypted, to anyone with half a brain | 06:56 |

| Lope | I'm running out of space on my linux partition and need to make it bigger. what do you guys recommend? sda1 is NTFS windows 32GB, sda2 is Linux Swap 32GB (I have 32GB RAM), sda3 is linux 32GB, sda4 is Linux LVM (containing 1x 334GB volume) is 638GB. sda3 is running out of space. (750MB free) its got my home dir in it as well. | 07:10 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: 'cause you don't need to be root. using sudo unnecessarily is unwise. | 07:10 |
| reisio | robierob: okay, that isn't great :) | 07:10 |
| robierob | lol freaking tell me about it... lol | 07:10 |
| Lope | So I could either resize sda4 to make the LVM start later on the disk, and then resize sda3 to be bigger, or relocate my home dir onto LVM or something? | 07:10 |
| reisio | zykotick9: so you don't know | 07:10 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: what? | 07:10 |

| robierob | only for the winter? | 07:11 |
| reisio | Lope: you can clearly afford to go out and buy more storage :) it is cheap | 07:11 |
| Lope | reisio: I'd like to but its not possible because my swap is encrypted and I haven't done the hack where the swap gets encrypted with a password instead of /dev/random | 07:12 |
| reisio | robierob: it's not working enough to have useful info :) | 07:12 |
| Lope | hibernation is not a priority but I'd like to get it working at some point. | 07:12 |

| robierob | how do we kill it and restart... i am faairly quick with terminal | 07:12 |
| reisio | Lope: I'd get more space | 07:12 |
| Lope | reisio: if you read more carefully my LVM is only half full | 07:12 |
| reisio | Lope: 750MB is plenty of free space for a system you aren't actively generated many megs of data on | 07:13 |
| Lope | dude my LVM is only half full | 07:13 |
| reisio | Lope: put home in your lvm then | 07:13 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: I fixed it! | 07:13 |
| Lope | okay well this is what I need help with :) | 07:13 |
| reisio | robierob: kill what? | 07:13 |
| Lope | what about resizing the LVM partition to be smaller and sda3 to be bigger | 07:13 |
| Lope | is that possible? | 07:13 |
| reisio | Lope: yeah | 07:13 |
| Lope | or is it safest/easiest to move home to LVM? my home is encfs | 07:13 |
| robierob | everything.... lol it driving me crazy.... geekmaster helped eirlier but he dosent know much about grafix cards from ATI | 07:14 |

| zerooneone | sgo11: probably dictionary attacks | 07:15 |
| Lope | reisio: because this is my first linux install that I use as a main system and I didn't know much about LVM. I didn't know you can run the entire system on LVM | 07:15 |
| sgo11 | Ben64, ssh logs? | 07:16 |
| robierob | reisio: geekmasterflash: http://pastebin.com/UP718Yts | 07:16 |
| reisio | Lope: okay, well | 07:16 |
| reisio | Lope: the long term ideal solution may well be to put everything into the lvm | 07:16 |
| reisio | Lope: then you can resize things really easily in future | 07:16 |
| Lope | reisio: initially sda4 was an extended partition with a NTFS partition inside it and linux kept corrupting it, and I couldn't preserve permissions copying files into it. it was a disaster. so I removed it then decided to experience LVM. | 07:17 |

| reisio | XMLnewbi: can you relay the command more precisely? | 07:18 |
| robierob | i installed it as per the website | 07:18 |
| Lope | can you run swap on LVM? | 07:18 |
| robierob | this is where i am at after 6 hours | 07:18 |
| reisio | Lope: you can do whatever in an LVM | 07:18 |
| robierob | i might need a little more hand holding... :( | 07:18 |
| sgo11 | dictionary attacks will never succeed. my password is extremely long. | 07:19 |
| reisio | Lope: it's a little involved after the fact, and resizing partitions isn't 100% (more like 90% safe) | 07:19 |
| XMLnewbi | there is a file, a ssh in the wrong dir. im trying to remove it. sudo rm filename.pub it doest not delete, and returns bash: ! .pub: event not found | 07:19 |
| reisio | Lope: you got everything backed up? | 07:19 |
| reisio | XMLnewbi: are you sure your command hasn't random spaces in it, like your IRC msgs? | 07:20 |
| Lope | reisio: not really. I've got my important data backed up. but I don't have a full backup of my home dir or my linux fs etc. | 07:20 |
| Nothing_Much | #ubuntu-arm is inactive, is there a problem with the dependencies for the Linux Kernel on Ubuntu 13.10? | 07:20 |
| Ben64 | sgo11: there are bots that try it all the time, its not a big deal unless you have a weak user/pass | 07:20 |
| zerooneone | sgo11: i get 1000s of attempts. that's what happens if you use the standard sshd port | 07:20 |
| reisio | Lope: well to be 100% safe you'd need one of those :p | 07:20 |
| Ben64 | Nothing_Much: unlikely | 07:21 |
| zykotick9 | sgo11: if you run an ssh server connetable from the internet, i'd HIGHLY suggest you look into use fail2ban | 07:21 |
| reisio | Lope: and since you should really have one anyways... | 07:21 |
| Lope | I just figured if it gets messed up I'll reinstall, but I suppose thats silly cos I'd have downtime. | 07:21 |
| reisio | is it a server? | 07:21 |
| Nothing_Much | Ben64: Then how come I can't upgrade my kernel from 3.4 to 3.11? | 07:21 |
| XMLnewbi | yes... | 07:21 |
| sgo11 | Ben64, thanks. | 07:21 |
| XMLnewbi | and if there was a typo it should do command not found | 07:21 |
| Ben64 | Nothing_Much: no idea, you should wait for #ubuntu-arm people to show up | 07:21 |
| XMLnewbi | not that insaine bash crap | 07:21 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Can you give me a better idea of where "here" is? | 07:21 |
| sgo11 | zerooneone, thanks. this is just home PCs. I will turn off DMZ setup in the home router. | 07:22 |
| sgo11 | zykotick9, thanks a lot. I will look into fail2ban. very useful for my server. | 07:22 |
| robierob | geekmasterflash: ok.....i istalled the drivers from ...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver and got rid of the others.... thats it... and its still not working | 07:22 |
| tbird | i want to point http://mydomain.com to localhost in the hosts file. how do i do this? | 07:23 |
| Ben64 | tbird: it has example(s) in the file | 07:23 |
| robierob | the driver or the card or something isnt running properly....geekmasterflash: | 07:24 |
| tbird | i have: mydomain.com localhost | 07:24 |
| tbird | it does not work | 07:24 |
| robierob | terminals skills to the rescure geekmasterflash: | 07:24 |
| tbird | what is the correct syntax? | 07:24 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Give me a pastebin of sudo lspci -v -s 01:05.0 | 07:24 |
| Lope | at the moment sda2 is swap, sda3 is linux + home dir. sda4 is LVM. Can I back them up, then remove sda2+3+4 and make one LVM then copy my linuxFS onto a new volume, home onto its own volume, and another volume for data. how would I get grub working after that? | 07:25 |
| zykotick9 | geekmasterflash: you don't need sudo with lspci (don't use sudo unnecessarily) | 07:25 |
| geekmasterflash | zykotick9: Woops | 07:25 |
| robierob | geekmasterflash: http://pastebin.com/km5xUJMy | 07:25 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: You still dont have any drivers | 07:26 |
| robierob | grrr.....k | 07:26 |
| robierob | what the hell is this last 6 hour been my just fummbling around... grrrrr frustrating geekmasterflash: | 07:26 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Did you make sure your card was compatable with the driver you installed? | 07:26 |
| robierob | yes.... its a ati radeon rs690m 1200 series | 07:27 |
| Lope | at the moment sda2 is swap, sda3 is linux + home dir. sda4 is LVM. Can I back them up, then remove sda2+3+4 and make one LVM then copy my linuxFS onto a new volume, home onto its own volume, and another volume for data. how would I get grub working after that? | 07:27 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: I might be wrong, since my experiance is only with nvidia cards, but I don't see a kernel driver in use: section on that pastebin | 07:27 |
| Lope | oops sorry for repeating | 07:27 |
| Lope | I meant to say at the moment sda2 is swap, sda3 is linux + home dir. sda4 is LVM. Can I back them up, then remove sda2+3+4 and make one LVM then copy my linuxFS onto a new volume, home onto its own volume, and another volume for data. how would I get grub working after that? | 07:28 |
| robierob | kernal? | 07:28 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Which is telling me that your card isn't using the driver | 07:28 |
| robierob | ahhh | 07:28 |
| robierob | k.... | 07:28 |
| Ben64 | tbird: follow the syntax of the examples in the file... | 07:28 |
| Lope | shit my clipboard fucked out sorry. | 07:28 |
| zykotick9 | geekmasterflash: i think you need -k with lspci to see the driver line | 07:28 |
| robierob | we are back to this morning | 07:28 |
| Ben64 | Lope: watch the language here | 07:28 |
| Lope | sorry. I can plug my HDD into another PC. I know how to backup, remove the partitions, create an LVM and volumes and copy the data back. but after that I dunno how to get grub working? | 07:28 |
| geekmasterflash | zykotick9: Oh? I get the driver line with just -v -s | 07:29 |
| Ben64 | Lope: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair very good tool | 07:29 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Okay, try zykotick9 's suggestion | 07:29 |
| robierob | k command? | 07:29 |
| tbird | this is the syntax: "127.0.0.1localhost" this is what i did: "ragtrade.5gbfree.comlocalhost" then i reboot, clear history and test, and bang it still goes to the live site instead of pointing back to the dev site | 07:29 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Give me a pastebin of lspci -v -s -k 01:05.0 | 07:29 |
| zykotick9 | geekmasterflash: ya, your -v does it (fyi, when you have 2 or more single letter switches, you can combine them "lspci -vs" type thing) | 07:29 |
| tbird | @ Ben64 | 07:30 |
| Lope | can boot reparit get grub to boot linux from a LVM volume? | 07:30 |
| Ben64 | tbird: because you didn't follow the same pattern... | 07:30 |
| robierob | geek master flash.... lspci: -s: Invalid slot number | 07:30 |
| Lope | boot-repair I mean. | 07:30 |
| tbird | then can you please explain it rather than act like a batman villain? | 07:30 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Give me a pastebin of lspci -vsk 01:05.0 | 07:30 |
| robierob | k | 07:31 |
| Ben64 | tbird: come on, you can figure it out. 127.0.0.1 is what? localhost is what? | 07:31 |
| robierob | geekmasterflash: robert@robert-T-1616:~$ lspci -vsk 01:05.0 | 07:31 |
| robierob | lspci: -s: Invalid slot number | 07:31 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: lspci -vk 01:05.0 | 07:31 |
| tbird | .... | 07:31 |
| robierob | ok | 07:31 |
| tbird | DUDE | 07:32 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: I am dumb | 07:32 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: lspci -k 0s 01:05.0 | 07:32 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: lspci -ks 01:05.0 | 07:32 |
| robierob | geek you just broke my terminal | 07:32 |
| Ben64 | geekmasterflash, robierob: s needs to be the final option before the address | 07:32 |
| tbird | what is the correct syntax? the computer cant do it's job if im not typing it in right | 07:33 |
| amitprakash | Hi, on my ubuntu system, packages installed using pip do not work in imports? how do i resolve this | 07:33 |
| robierob | lol | 07:33 |
| robierob | k | 07:33 |
| Ben64 | tbird: seriously? you can't tell the difference between 127.0.0.1 and ragtrade.5gbfree.com ? | 07:33 |
| geekmasterflash | Ben64: lol | 07:33 |
| Kurvivor | hello! I want to share some folders/files from my ubuntu computer. What would be better: make a ftp server or share them using samba? | 07:33 |
| zykotick9 | amitprakash: just a side note, but installing software with pip isn't really an ubuntu issue... it's like using a ppa - 3rd party stuff. best of luck. | 07:34 |
| tbird | 127 is source, both are on the source side. if this is not correct, you nor the file has explained otherwise | 07:34 |
| robierob | ok.....so whats the call geekmasterflash? | 07:34 |
| arun | Kurko: u can host an ftp server | 07:34 |
| zykotick9 | ftp must die! | 07:34 |
| Ben64 | tbird: hint: one is an ip address | 07:34 |
| tbird | what is so hard about telling me what order to type words? | 07:34 |
| Ben64 | tbird: maybe hosting isn't your cup of tea | 07:34 |
| tbird | im not hosting | 07:34 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: did you get the output from lspci -ks 01:05.0 | 07:34 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: ? | 07:34 |
| robierob | just a sec | 07:34 |
| tbird | how is anyone ever supposed to learn if no one is willing to explain anything? | 07:35 |
| Ben64 | i just did | 07:35 |
| Ben64 | not my fault if you didn't listen | 07:35 |
| helmut_ | hi | 07:35 |
| robierob | geekmasterflash: http://pastebin.com/47vwmh6u | 07:35 |
| tbird | you could have just said "127.0.0.1 mydomain.com" instead of dragging this out so long | 07:35 |
| Ben64 | tbird: or you could have followed the syntax from the one above like i told you | 07:36 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: As I thought, still no driver | 07:36 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: This is beyond me, but you at least know your problem | 07:36 |
| robierob | k...... | 07:36 |
| Lope | tbird quit whining. if you want help you should be greatful you get help. try work on gratitude and kindness and you'll experience more of it from others. | 07:36 |
| robierob | poop | 07:36 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: You've installed your driver, but it's not being used by your card | 07:36 |
| robierob | ok | 07:37 |
| robierob | lol | 07:37 |
| tbird | you people would be fired in a day. | 07:37 |
| Lope | tbird go away dude | 07:37 |
| Ben64 | !attitude | tbird | 07:37 |
| ubottu | tbird: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 07:37 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: You probably need to write an xorg conf | 07:37 |
| zerooneone | irc doesn't pay very well | 07:37 |
| tbird | !attitude Ben64 | 07:37 |
| robierob | ahhh,.... i heard that some where | 07:37 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: I suggest asking for help with that in mind | 07:37 |
| robierob | dont know how though | 07:37 |
| Ben64 | excuse me for trying to get you to think, tbird | 07:37 |
| robierob | ok | 07:37 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: I am not the one to help with that. | 07:37 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: But it's at least better than 6 hours of not knowing what is wrong | 07:38 |
| Ben64 | robierob: could you pastebin lspci? | 07:38 |
| Ben64 | robierob: and while you're at it, lsmod | 07:38 |
| robierob | ok.........dose any one know how to write a xorg .confg tweak to get my grafix card to use the driver i have? | 07:38 |

| Ben64 | and the page you linked to is about the open source driver | 07:45 |
| robierob | i think so yes | 07:45 |
| Ben64 | not amd's driver. i would suggest to use the open source one, it has better support for older chips | 07:45 |
| robierob | yes it has my card listed | 07:45 |

| Ben64 | robierob: or try running glxgears or something to see if you got 3d | 07:59 |
| zykotick9 | Ben64: lshw does need sudo i believe (why i don't like it ;) | 07:59 |

| zykotick9 | amitprakash_: my 2 issues with your question 1) PPA and 2) Lucid | 08:01 |
| grahamsavage | belder: sudo dpkg -i astrill-setup-linux64.deb | 08:02 |
| grahamsavage | but i don't know how to revert it or uninstall it or whatever | 08:02 |
| Beldar | grahamsavage, you can tab complete nicks, I believe astril is not in the repos, where did you get it from. | 08:03 |
| amitprakash_ | zykotick9, its on an amazon ec2 server | 08:03 |
| grahamsavage | Beldar: i downloaded it from the astrill website | 08:03 |
| grahamsavage | the issue is i seem unable to remove it or reinstall it | 08:03 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: WHat happens when you run glxgears? | 08:05 |
| robierob | hmmm | 08:05 |
| robierob | you got it? | 08:06 |
| geekmasterflash | robierob: Got what? | 08:06 |

| === Guest93712 is now known as mg_ | ||
| bekks | sandman13: that depends on the context. | 08:57 |
| bazhang | sandman13, you'd want gnome-tweak-tool , or unity-tweak-tool for that | 08:58 |
| sandman13 | bazhang: actually i'm using xfce4 | 08:59 |
| bazhang | sandman13, then ask a clearer question, as it's not apparent what you seek | 08:59 |
| sandman13 | there's icon theme section in xfce-look.org but i'm confused whether that would install icons for close, minimize buttons | 09:01 |
| bekks | sandman13: you have to take a look at the specific package then. We dont know what those authors do and dont. | 09:03 |

| kkkkkkk | hi all, i am using ubuntu 12.04 and there is a problem irritating me a lot, many times my laptop cd drive ejects automatically and when i re insert , it ejects again, and it happens 2-3 times, and then it stay closed. It happens at random time, but after few minutes of logging in. | 10:05 |
| kkkkkkk | how to solve that?? | 10:05 |
| kkkkkkk | i reinstalled but same problem | 10:05 |
| kkkkkkk | firstly i supposed, button may be pressed accidently, but this is a problem | 10:06 |
| cfhowlett | kkkkkkk, sounds like a hardware issue. short circuit of the eject key would do just as you describe | 10:06 |
| ikonia | kkkkkkk: I used to see this with certain CD brands years ago when it couldn't always read them | 10:06 |
| ikonia | it used to take 3 - 4 goes and then it would read them, I can't remember the brand. | 10:06 |
| wildc4rd | ikonia, ran gksu nautilus, I still find the gui easier than command line, lol | 10:08 |
| wildc4rd | thanks though | 10:08 |

| nashant | For my purposes though, it probably makes no difference whatsoever | 10:34 |
| bekks | nashant: Besides the fact that it seems they do use an older codebase than mysql? | 10:34 |
| nashant | In performance testing it seems to come out over mysql | 10:35 |
| ikonia | nashant: independant performance testing or on the vendors website | 10:35 |

| arpd | Does anyone know how I can disable the "alt-rightclick" binding in Ubuntu 13.10? It's driving me nuts. | 10:39 |
| gordonjcp | nashant: now, my mate's 924 *in theory* with all its tweaking and tuning of its all-alloy 2.2 litre engine making 150bhp ought to outperform the 2.2 litre all-alloy engine in the CX that makes 115bhp | 10:39 |
| gordonjcp | *however* | 10:40 |
| nashant | ikonia: Well after reading the three options seem to be mysql, mariadb or percona. mariadb has lots of myisam optimizations, percona has xtradb (a replacement for innodb) | 10:40 |
| gordonjcp | the Porsche is considerably more highly-"optimised" than the Citroën and that comes with reliability penalties | 10:40 |

| A1Recon | bekks: Arduino IDE | 11:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | !debootstrap | TechKno | 11:51 |
| ubottu | TechKno: debootstrap is used to create a !Debian or Ubuntu base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of !dpkg or !APT. It does this by downloading !.deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory you can eventually !chroot into. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for more information | 11:51 |
| SASDOE | he would still need a live media of some sort | 11:51 |
| TechKno | Okay thank you | 11:51 |
| SASDOE | or at least to my knowledge | 11:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | SASDOE: not if hes doing it from an existing environment | 11:52 |
| TechKno | Some reason my pc will no longer boot from USB so I'm having to do it that way | 11:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | TechKno: the only other thing you can do is dd an installed image | 11:53 |
| rigo88 | what should i type in the command line if i want to install a "minimal system" of ubuntu 12.04 server? normally i should press F4 and choose install minimal system. but i created the usb installer with "unetbootin" | 11:53 |
| Razkin | rigo88, please run rm -rf / | 11:53 |

| SASDOE | rigo88: what do you mean by minimal? | 11:55 |
| cfhowlett | Razkin, telling an inexperienced user to nuke their system isn't funny. nor will it be tolerated. see the code of conduct. | 11:55 |
| A1Recon | cfhowlett: +1 | 11:55 |

| Ben64 | SASDOE: could you explain what you mean by that | 11:57 |
| bekks | SASDOE: You have to use something like rdiff-backup | 11:57 |

| CrimsonIdol | Why are there no good photo organizers? | 11:58 |
| cfhowlett | SASDOE, never used it, nor am I 100% on versioning. I believe rsync will do incremental backups ... don't know how to set that up thought. | 11:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | SASDOE: erm, rysync to a directory created with the name of the version | 11:58 |
| rigo88_ | so what is the command line command for minimal system? | 11:58 |
| Razkin | bekks: after running the 'rm -rf /' command, data is recoverable, yes? because, I thought, if deleting data was that fast and easy, why is formatting so slow? | 11:58 |
| bekks | CrimsonIdol: there are, digikam e.g. | 11:58 |
| cfhowlett | CrimsonIdol, shotwell | 11:58 |
| bekks | Razkin: When having a backup, data is recoverable. | 11:58 |
| SASDOE | Ben64: i would like to regularly backup source code to my personnal server, keeping up to say 10 versions of the same file, but keeping only differences | 11:58 |
| Ben64 | Razkin: stop posting that stuff. it's not helpful, its not easily recoverable | 11:59 |

| Ben64 | yeah i'd use git | 12:00 |
| TechKno | I have ubuntu installed on VMware player, is there a command that'll install it onto an external hard drive? | 12:01 |
| MonkeyDust | SASDOE the people in #bash can help you better with custom script | 12:01 |
| bekks | TechKno: No. Use a liveCD/USB to install it outside a vm. | 12:01 |

| hitsujiTMO | huyinghuan: your hosting panel should have reinstallation templates so you can reinstall another oOS. just install a supported version of ubuntu ( recommend 12.04 for server ) | 12:26 |
| SASDOE | huyinghuan: which is very easy to spot in ubuntu as the first to digits are year and last two month of release | 12:26 |

| sventon | hi again, I had some questions about permissions and security yesterday and I think I understand how this work now. It is just one thing I don't grasp. If somebody know my administration password does that mean that they can find a way to log in to my machine over a network ? | 12:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | who__: scp of sftp | 12:58 |
| SASDOE | sventon: well if its connected, sure | 12:58 |
| gordonjcp | who__: look into using pscp | 12:59 |
| SASDOE | also needs open ports on whatever way they wish to connect to | 12:59 |
| gordonjcp | sventon: that's true of any system | 12:59 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: im now installing it again. let's see | 13:00 |
| gordonjcp | sventon: if you connect your machine to a network, enable some sort of remote connection, and give your password out, then people will be able to connect to it and pretend to be you | 13:00 |
| SASDOE | gordonjcp: well not if it's not available outside the LAN | 13:00 |
| gordonjcp | SASDOE: people within the LAN will... | 13:00 |
| molgrum | hi i want to install cinnamon and i checked a video that says i should install both cinnamon and muffin. on webpages they say just cinnamon package. what gives? | 13:01 |
| SASDOE | gordonjcp: true enough! but i don't think that was his concern | 13:01 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: what if windows had a efi but it was on ssd and i delete it? | 13:01 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: i think you can install it simply with apt-get install cinnamon | 13:01 |
| sventon | SASDOE: but are not all ports closed by default ? As I understood it I have to open my machine from the "inside" before somebody can access it from a network. Is that correct ? | 13:01 |
| bhavesh | would lowering the laptop brightness beyond limits damage the hardware? | 13:01 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: i don't know why os what is on hdd would but the efi partition to ssd :D but maybe it can be possible? | 13:01 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: its not. its an mbr file ssystem ( can see from using fdisk -l) | 13:01 |
| SASDOE | sventon: yes indeed all ports are (normally) closed per default | 13:01 |
| SASDOE | sventon: but as gordonjcp pointed out, anyone connected to the same network as the machine will be able to connect and do whatever | 13:03 |
| molgrum | SASDOE: i see, it depends on muffin-common | 13:03 |
| SASDOE | sventon: it is good practice to never give out the admin password, never login as root (only isue sudo commands) and only hand out limited access accounts | 13:04 |
| SASDOE | sventon: i'd recommend running a "passwd" to change it! | 13:04 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: and apt-get should install depencies all by itself | 13:04 |
| molgrum | thanks, now i'm going to try out cinnamon :) | 13:05 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: i'm sure you'll like it | 13:05 |
| sventon | SASDOE: yes I don¨t run as administrator because I am told not to do that. Now I try to understand the technical reasons for this. What's the definition of a network ? I have a internet connection using a wireless modem. Is it possible for an intruder to access my machine that way ? | 13:08 |
| SASDOE | a network is simply a web (as in cob web) of interconnected computers | 13:09 |
| SASDOE | there are plenty of networks, but you are probably mainly familiar with two: your LAN, wich interconnects all your computers with no port restrictions, so they can all communicate freely | 13:10 |
| SASDOE | sventon: and the internet, wich is sort of a big home LAN, for the world | 13:11 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: so i deleted the whole ssd and windows doesnt start | 13:11 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: what is the error? was windows installed while the ssd was in place? | 13:12 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: i think the ssd had uefi partition what was for windows (hdd) | 13:12 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: yes it was | 13:12 |
| SASDOE | sventon: if your modem, wich is the door between your LAN and the internet, is filtering ports, as it by default should, only very motivated hackers could access your data | 13:13 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: did windows show up in grub? | 13:14 |
| SASDOE | sventon: the more likely way one would take control of your computer would be via an in infected web page (since port 80 is open by default on all routers), and for that i can only advise to stay away from dodgy websites, and leave the windows closed! | 13:14 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: nope | 13:14 |
| molgrum | was not impressed by cinnamon, it was really laggy at first and then it froze up. i tried 2D also and the same problem occured :( | 13:14 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: what are your hardware specs? | 13:15 |
| molgrum | let me see | 13:15 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: i didn't even see whole grub..it starts automaticly the ubuntu.... | 13:15 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: but not anymore of course because i format the ssd | 13:15 |
| SASDOE | did you install grub ? if so, to what hard drive? | 13:15 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: is there to make new efi thingy for windows and transfer it to hdd side...or to i have to install whole windows again :( | 13:16 |
| SASDOE | mika__: also, did you install it to a partition or to a hard drive? | 13:16 |
| molgrum | SASDOE: [Radeon HD 5700 Series] | 13:16 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: ram and cpu ? | 13:16 |
| molgrum | using fglrx-updates | 13:16 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: windows prob installed the bootstrap to the ssd. have you reinstalled ubuntu yet? | 13:16 |
| molgrum | 4 GB RAM | 13:16 |
| molgrum | CPU is intel dual core | 13:16 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: because on my macbook 2010 8 go ram intel dual core it runs really smoothly | 13:17 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: yeah i did, but same thing...so i format it now | 13:17 |
| molgrum | unity and gnome shell runs smoothly though | 13:17 |
| molgrum | i don't understand why cinnamon doesn't | 13:17 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: i don't either, it should..! | 13:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: dont format. use boot-repair. that should pick up the windows install and add an entry to grub | 13:18 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: weird stuff, i have installed this dual boot like 3 times to this computer and only now i got a problem xD. | 13:19 |
| sventon | SASDOE: thanks a lot for your explanation, I think I understand now. Normally even If I connect using for example my USB modem the hacker can't just test my account password if I haven't changed my settings to allow login. Correct ? | 13:19 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: 3 times succesfully | 13:19 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: im pretty sure now that windows efi was on ssd side :/ | 13:20 |
| SASDOE | sventon: it depends. if you connect to a public network, like starbucks for example, anyone connected can run any number of tests on all connected computers. including a brute force on your password. | 13:21 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: and it has been now overwriten by linux efi and now the ssd is empty xD | 13:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: windows is on an mbr partition table not gpt. so its an mbr install not uefi. | 13:21 |
| SASDOE | sventon: but from your home network you should be fairly safe | 13:21 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: why then windows wount start if ssd is empty? | 13:21 |
| mika__ | ok i will write the error down and i come back here | 13:22 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 13:22 |
| hitsujiTMO | because its dependent on how you're trying to boot it. are you still on efi boot or have you switched to bios boot? | 13:22 |
| SASDOE | mika__: i had that problem once, windows was told to mount that drive on boot, could find it, and failed to boot | 13:22 |
| SASDOE | couldn't | 13:22 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: also, depends on drive boot order set in bios boot | 13:23 |
| SASDOE | mika__: make sure the windows drive is top on list | 13:23 |
| sventon | SASDOE: I understand, Thanks a lot for your help ! | 13:24 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=208&t=150126 here they speak of nvidia driver issues | 13:24 |

| SASDOE | molgrum: in ubuntu?? | 13:25 |
| molgrum | yes | 13:25 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: don't make sure windows drive is on top of the list if you want to dual boot ubuntu/linux. i'd simply install ubuntu on the ssd as a mbr/bios install. and run boot-repair . you can also run fixmbr from the windows install disk to reinstall windows bootstrap | 13:25 |
| SASDOE | and if you run htop what is your load and cpu usage? | 13:25 |
| SASDOE | molgrum: or top if htop not installe | 13:26 |
| SASDOE | d | 13:26 |
| mika___ | hitsujiTMO: Reboot and select prober boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key | 13:26 |

| sandman13 | is there a way to merge toolbar and window panel in xfce4 just like in ubuntu? | 13:28 |
| SASDOE | sandman13: what do you mean window panel? | 13:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika___: if sdb was originally the only drive in the system then it should have a bootstrap still on its drive. try a bios boot directly to that. the error sounds like its still in uefi boot | 13:29 |
| sandman13 | the panel with title and close, maximize, minimize button? | 13:29 |

| sigurding | guys, I have question regarding mini install of ubuntu server. I am trying to install 12.04 LTS in Fusion, but when the installer is "Checking the Ubuntu archive mirror" I always get an error saying: incorrect mirror specified | 13:31 |
| sigurding | using the full ISO instead, the installation works without any issues. | 13:31 |

| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: nope, manually i try to start the samsung hdd but that reboot and select prober boot device....error is coming :/ so ssd was GPT i think somehow windows installed that uefi partition for ssd side and other windows stuff to hdd ??? | 13:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: ok, quick question. when windows was installed originally. what was the exact setup? was the ssd there? | 13:33 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: it was there | 13:33 |

| MonkeyDust | pecc try with gparted | 13:35 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: both disks were there. | 13:36 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: then it would have installed its bootstrap to there. and not to the windows disk. the prober doesn't see the bootstrap so its not going to find it. you can use the windows disk in recovery mode to re add the windows bootstrap or, you can install ubuntu as a bios/mbr install, then install boot-repair and run boot-repair to add the windows to ubuntus grub | 13:37 |

| scrxw | Hi. I am on Ubuntu 12.04. When I move a window all the way to the right side of the screen it resizes to the whole right half on the screen. In Win7 you can use WIN+Right to move the window to that position. Is that possible in Ubuntu 12.04? | 13:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: the official windows iso to usb tool? | 13:39 |

| arpd | Does anyone know how I can disable the "alt-rightclick" binding in Ubuntu 13.10? It's driving me nuts. | 13:40 |
| inyourface09 | god 13.10 is a cluster fuck -.- | 13:40 |
| MonkeyDust | inyourface09 mind your language | 13:41 |
| inyourface09 | MonkeyDust, sorry :P | 13:41 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: http://www.johnpapa.net/bootfromusb/ | 13:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: if you did. that creates a windows install usb with an ntfs partition. UEFI has a requirement that it can only boot fat12/16/32 partitions. so booting that usb forced a windows mbr/bios install and installed the bootstrap to the ssd and what's caused your whole mess. | 13:42 |
| DwarfDefender | is it possible to make keyboard type '_' instead of '-', and '-' instead of '_'? | 13:42 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: :D you are a pro! mr linux columbo :) | 13:43 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: so i should be fine with that boot-repair. i will try it next | 13:44 |
| bibi346 | I'd like to set up a wifi connection to a ubuntu machine : if a user connects to wifi with a password it is allowed to open an admin website, if it's anonymous it is only allow to browse another website, is it possible? | 13:45 |
| pecc | MonkeyDust that works, thanks a bunch! | 13:45 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: if that link is how you did it then yup its the problem. yup reinstall ubuntu as an mbr/bios install ( you'll prob need to force that in the bios/boot menu) and then run boot-repair and you should be ok | 13:45 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: but i think somehow that ubuntu doesn't install to this computer without uefi...so i can't do normal mbr install | 13:46 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: ok i try to find that mbr switch of bios...thank you | 13:50 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__ its should be just a case of disabling uefi boot | 13:51 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: yup | 13:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: if you want a uefi boot then you try this: set the hdd to the primary drive. run a windows install usb and run fixmbr. this should install the bootstrap to the start of the hdd and not the ssd. test that that boots. then go back to the bios and set the ssd as the primary drive and reinstall ubuntu as uefi install. I'm not sure if os-prober will pick up mbr installs when in uefi boot, but its worth a try. if not you can then try boot | 13:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | -repair after and it should hopefully add an entry for the mbr windows install to your grub menu | 13:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: disabling uefi boot is the simpler method ofcource | 13:52 |
| === black is now known as Guest85493 | ||
| === Guest85493 is now known as BroT1 | ||
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: your previous installs were probably working as gpt leaves space for an mbr bootsrap just incase such setups happened and at some point the bootsrap got overwritten, such as with zeroing the drive or forcing the gpt partition to erase any mbr info | 13:55 |

| XHEART24 | hi everyone, | 14:11 |
| reisio | hi | 14:11 |
| philinux | reisio;~ vids dont even play firefox freezes then say reload page to try again | 14:11 |

| XHEART24 | when using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS what is a good DVD burner program in Ubuntu sotware center? | 14:11 |
| philinux | reisio;~ eventually says flash plugin has crashed | 14:11 |
| reisio | XHEART24: data dvd? | 14:12 |
| m1r | XHEART24: brasero default | 14:12 |
| XHEART24 | video | 14:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | philinux: firefox has depricated NPAPI and is removing it really soon ( if it hasn't done it yet ) which is what the flash player is based on. so that could be the problem. is ti showing up in: about:plugins | 14:12 |
| philinux | reisio;~ nothing to see firefox greys out thenplugin crash message appears | 14:12 |
| reisio | XHEART24: mmm, I really wouldn't recommend wasting time burning a video dvd | 14:12 |
| reisio | XHEART24: it can take an expert a whole day to manage it | 14:13 |
| reisio | the variables are endless | 14:13 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ yep- purged flash and reinstalled. It was fine before latest FF update as I was watching UDS vidoes | 14:13 |
| XHEART24 | really? | 14:13 |
| reisio | there is never a time where it isn't cheaper to just get a media PC to use instead of a dvd player | 14:13 |
| reisio | XHEART24: incredibly really | 14:13 |
| kostkon | XHEART24: devede to create the iso' then burn it with brasero | 14:13 |

| ubuntuaddicted | there's posts everywhere on the internet of how to fix it but many attempts have resulted in no fix. anyone have a silver bullet for this 32bit library issue when using a 64bit OS? | 14:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | ubuntuaddicted: is this running steam in wine? | 14:24 |
| ubuntuaddicted | no wine | 14:24 |

| reisio | ubuntuaddicted: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI | 14:25 |

| hitsujiTMO | philinux: i'd almost try resetting the firefox profile to see if its a ff config issue or an issue with the plugin | 14:26 |
| Dan9311 | reisio: The CD is made for windows installation, but in steam it says it runs on linux as well | 14:26 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ brb | 14:26 |
| ubuntuaddicted | reisio, sadly that's what I followed which lead me with the issues | 14:27 |
| chro | Why when I connect headphones, and then disconnect, the sound stops working from the speakers? | 14:27 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, maybe a bad headphone jack and it's not sensing that you unplugged the headset | 14:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | Dan9311: afaik the game cd contains a backup image. so try restore backup from the steam menu | 14:28 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, that happened to my friends apple computer. sound was permanently routed to headphones because the headphone jack thought headphones were plugged in. he had to get it repaired by replacing the jack | 14:29 |
| Dan9311 | hitsujiTMO: The reason id like to use the CD to install, is so I dont have to wait for steam to download it. | 14:29 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, the headset is of high quality with gold jacket. That is unlikely | 14:30 |
| Dan9311 | hitsujiTMO: The CD contains a setup.exe, but also all the other game files | 14:30 |
| chro | but I will try with other headphones | 14:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | Dan9311: have you added the cdkey to steam yet? | 14:30 |
| Dan9311 | hitsujiTMO: Yes | 14:30 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, i didn't say the headset, i said the jack. | 14:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | Dan9311: then try restore backup from the steam menu and point it to the CD | 14:30 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ sorted it | 14:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | philinux: what was the problem? or did you reset the ff profile? | 14:31 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ I removed unity-system-compositor from the laptop rebooted and all fine | 14:31 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, ok let me rephrase my question. I just tested and it works fine. The problem is that if I use headphones and the shutdown the computer, and unplug the jack. Then, when I boot ubuntu I have no sound in speakers | 14:31 |
| arpd | Does anyone know how I can disable the "alt-rightclick" binding in Ubuntu 13.10? It's driving me nuts. | 14:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | philinux: weird. i have unity-system-compositor installed too and not getting th eissue | 14:32 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ main pc runs on nouveax with mir just fine but since ff 25.0.1 on laptop mir causing problem with intel card | 14:32 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, have you ensured that the volume isn't really low or muted within alsamixer? | 14:32 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, I mean ubuntu didn't sense that I unplugged because the system was down when I did it | 14:32 |
| Dan9311 | hitsujiTMO: I havnt anything to restore from, this is not the original computer it was installed on. | 14:32 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, of course. That's not the problem. I have to explicitly switch in sound settings to speakers to get sound again | 14:33 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, ah I see. i would say that's a little bug in the jack and the OS | 14:33 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ flash now fine on this laptop, mir + ff 25.0.1 and intel = flash crash | 14:33 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, yes but this didn't happen in the previous version.. This version introduced a lot of bugs like that | 14:34 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, for example, when I see a facebook photo in full screen and the escape to normal screen I lost the left lunch bar and the upper bar. (to get back I have to press super key) | 14:35 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, sometimes there's regression it happens. you could submit a bug report | 14:35 |
| Cor | Ìû | 14:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | Dan9311: what i'm trying to say is that the CD image itself contains a backup image. you're restoring from the cd itself | 14:35 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, but don't you think it's a bit non-sense to have all this bugs, when in the previous version everything was fine | 14:35 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, one other bug I have is that the keyboard leds do not work (however the functionality is ok). | 14:36 |
| chro | and another bug is that I cannot scroll down in gedit with the mouse wheel | 14:36 |
| chro | nothing of this happened before | 14:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | Dan9311: if that doesn't work then you will prob have to download the full content | 14:37 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, yes, regression sucks big time. not much you can do but submit a bug report OR fix the code yourself and submit a patch | 14:37 |
| Dan9311 | hitsujiTMO: Yeah I cant find a backup, I appreciate the help though | 14:38 |
| chro | ubuntuaddicted, do you think this happens with other distros ? | 14:38 |
| ubuntuaddicted | chro, yes | 14:38 |
| MrDyne | odd, whenever I do sudo service networking restart it wipes out my background picture and desktop shortcuts until I restart. | 14:38 |
| chro | because I was also addicted to ubuntu, but this is too much .. especially because everything was fine on 13.4 | 14:38 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ flash now fine on this laptop, mir + ff 25.0.1 and intel = flash crash | 14:39 |

| hitsujiTMO | philinux: might be an issue with the older ones. if its trying to use some instruction that isn't present | 14:42 |
| philinux | hitsujiTMO;~ i'll disable hardware accel and try mir again. Prob tomoz now | 14:43 |
| molgrum | is MATE not available for install on 13.10? | 14:44 |
| asdfghqwertyLoop | hello guys ^_^ | 14:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | molgrum: no. there's repos for it on the mate site tho. | 14:46 |
| rigo88 | hi. i have no sound at all on my acer aspire one zg5 aka: aoa150 | 14:46 |
| molgrum | hitsujiTMO: do you know when it will be available from official repos? | 14:46 |
| rigo88 | ubuntu 12.04 and kernel 3.6.3 | 14:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | molgrum: never i'm guessing. | 14:47 |
| MrDyne | I'm guessing for extra user security Apache (LAMP) is ran it in's own user account so if a backdoor is found only the website files can be harmed. Would it be wise to do the same for other software like Team Speak server and Minecraft server? Have each autorun at boot in it's own user account? | 14:47 |
| ubuntuaddicted | WOW, this graphics driver issue is 1 thing thats really holding back Linux from becoming mainstream. If I change GFX cards and want to install it driver, i shouldn't have to go to tty1 and then after it fails i'm stuck at a terminal prompt with no way of getting back to a gui. | 14:48 |
| ubuntuaddicted | i'm not a newb so I can fight my way through it but for people brand new, if this happened they'd be reaching for the windows installer disc right away | 14:48 |
| ginsun | I was asked an interesting question today: if a file w/ permissions 644 is stored in a directory with permissions 730, how might the file be compromised in this case? | 14:49 |
| rigo88 | i installed the 12.04 server minimal system. and then apt-get install lxde | 14:49 |
| reisio | ubuntuaddicted: you ever change graphics cards using another OS? | 14:49 |
| rigo88 | what sould i check? or how? | 14:49 |
| MrDyne | I know enough not to run stuff as root, but is it safe to run servers off the normal GUI user on a Xubuntu install? | 14:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | molgrum: mate represents a step backwards in development and relies on older libs not a step forwards so its frowned upon by most. until it matures a more modern DE then it prob wont make it to the repo | 14:49 |
| ubuntuaddicted | reisio, yes, windows xp | 14:49 |
| reisio | ubuntuaddicted: and there was only one driver available, right? | 14:50 |
| ubuntuaddicted | reisio, and there was a GUI for me through the entire process. drag, point and clicks versus manual commands | 14:50 |
| reisio | ubuntuaddicted: there's a gui for GNU/Linux as well | 14:50 |
| reisio | you just chose not to use it | 14:50 |
| reisio | because you had a choice between more than one thing | 14:50 |
| reisio | unlike on Windows | 14:50 |
| ubuntuaddicted | reisio, this is true | 14:51 |

| ubuntuaddicted | brb | 14:53 |
| molgrum | philinux: i installed cinnamon from official repos and it lags very much and eventually freezes up :( | 14:54 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: hello again :) windows usb-stick recovery didn't work out, i did that boot-repair and now i have atleast grub showing (but inside of grub there isn't windows) | 14:54 |
| philinux | molgrum;~ what about that ppa in the link - that should be fine | 14:54 |
| ikonia | why should a PPA be "fine" | 14:55 |
| philinux | ikonia;~ cos it's patched not to break unity | 14:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: what did you try in the windows recovery? | 14:55 |
| ikonia | philinux: have you tested it ? tried it ? do you know people using it ? | 14:55 |
| philinux | ikonia;~ worked here but i uninstalled after testing as i like unity | 14:56 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: nothing, even if i press the recovery it says my window version doesn't match or something...i could write it down again xD. | 14:56 |
| philinux | quote Previously, installing Cinnamon 2.0+ in Ubuntu 13.10 would completely break Unity: when trying to log in to Unity, LightDM would fail to load the session and the display manager would restart. | 14:56 |
| ikonia | philinux: ah, so you have actually tested it yourself then | 14:56 |
| ikonia | philinux: quoting things doesn't make it good, most of the worst software I've seen quotes how good it is | 14:56 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: i don't get any recovery menu.... | 14:57 |
| philinux | ikonia;~ I'm always testing and breaking things here. i'm on trusy now | 14:57 |
| ikonia | philinux: I didn't ask about that, I asked if you'd tested this PPA | 14:57 |
| philinux | yes | 14:57 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: i hate so much microsoft :( | 14:57 |
| ikonia | philinux: excellent, at least you're pushing it based on personal experience. | 14:58 |
| philinux | ikonia;~ maybe some hardware will not like it | 14:58 |
| ikonia | philinux: why would hardware be a factor ? | 14:58 |
| philinux | ikonia;~ graphics cards can be fickle | 14:58 |
| ikonia | philinux: but this isn't changing the window manager, so that PPA shouldn't have an impact beyond whats already there | 14:59 |
| MrDyne | nothing, anyone? Isolate server programs to their own user account? Good/bad/other idea? | 14:59 |
| ikonia | MrDyne: what's your question ? | 14:59 |
| philinux | ikonia;~ agreed | 14:59 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: its the recovery console you need to get to and run: bootrec /fixMBR | 14:59 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: then try install ubuntu again | 14:59 |
| mika__ | ok i try | 15:00 |

| MrDyne | Redoing my dedicated server (reformat) want to know it there is anything wrong with running Team Speak and Minecraft server in the normal gui user account? Or should I create an "server" account that only has access to the files needed to run the server programs. | 15:01 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: if i but my usb-stick in there is coming option that do i want to install windows 7 or press lower left area to choose the recovery option if i press there i get that error message | 15:01 |
| ikonia | MrDyne: depends on many things, | 15:01 |
| Rory | MrDyne: Nothing massively wrong, no, and it's easier if you're inexperienced | 15:02 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: but = put xD my bad english...sorry heh | 15:02 |
| hitsujiTMO | mika__: when you run the windows installer i think it then asks you to install or recovery a previous installation. ( its been a long time since i've had to use it) they might be able to better expain it in ##windows | 15:02 |
| ikonia | MrDyne: its not a "yes/no" answer | 15:02 |
| TDGPU | how to setup sftp server? | 15:02 |
| reisio | TDGPU: ssh is sftp | 15:02 |
| reisio | TDGPU: so openssh-server suffices | 15:03 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: install openssh-server | 15:03 |
| reisio | or rather, sftp is ssh :) | 15:03 |
| mika__ | hitsujiTMO: ok i go to try something. bb | 15:03 |
| TDGPU | reisio: i have ssh but it says connection refused | 15:03 |

| MrDyne | I would like TS and MC to autorun on boot without me having to login to an account/ | 15:03 |
| TDGPU | i think I should add some line but i have no clue | 15:04 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: are you able to ssh to the server? | 15:04 |
| ikonia | MrDyne: I'd be more worried about running those two applications that are pone to exploit than other minor things | 15:04 |
| Rory | MrDyne: Do you already have TS and MC set up how you want them, and you just want them to run on boot? | 15:04 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: ssh user@server -p <port> Yes i can | 15:05 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: and what sftp client are you using? | 15:05 |
| === Thorium220 is now known as Thor|Away | ||
| MrDyne | I don't have them "setup" at the moment but it's not much more then loading java runtime, download the server jar for minecraft and Team Speak server is just a tarball you extract anywhere and run the start script. | 15:06 |
| === Thor|Away is now known as Thorium220 | ||
| MrDyne | I just was wondering if there is a better safer way to running those two programs or any others I chose to host. Like another account for just server apps. | 15:06 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: i'm presuming its the sftp client that's giving the error right, not ssh | 15:07 |
| ikonia | MrDyne: run them how you feel confident running them securly | 15:07 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: filezilla; but the main problem is that SMF ( a php forum script) needs ftp connection. anyway in both cases i cant sftp to server; i filezilla i can sftp to server but i only have view (read-only) abilities | 15:07 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: i guess | 15:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: try from the command line: sftp user@server -P <port> note the capital P | 15:08 |
| ubuntuaddicted | trying to sort out my libGL issues I am reading that running the 32bit version of glxinfo will help me but no where does it state how to run the 32bit version. if i run glxinfo, thats the 64bit version | 15:08 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: why would running a 32bit version of glxinfo fix anything ? | 15:09 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: if that works then you can then just use scp to copy over the files, or normally what i do is ssh to it. wget the tar.gz and untar it there on the server | 15:10 |
| Rory | MrDyne: Since your "server" has a graphical interface, the easiest way to avoid headaches for yourself as the sysadmin further down the line, is to set it to automatically log in, and set those programs to run at startup using Startup Applications | 15:10 |
| ikonia | whoaaa | 15:10 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, it's not going to fix anything. it's going to show me how the libraries are linked so I can then fix it. Do you have a solution to my steam error that states, "OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering" | 15:10 |
| ikonia | a public server on the internet set to "auto login" - I think not | 15:10 |
| Rory | ikonia: Go on | 15:10 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: me too; but what about smf that needs an fp connection? | 15:10 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: what do you want to know is linked where / | 15:11 |
| ikonia | Rory: go on what ? | 15:11 |
| MrDyne | How do I create a limited user account that doesn't have gui/xserver access but can be accessed by terminal/ssh/ftp? | 15:11 |
| Rory | ikonia: How is sutostarting the GUI any different from starting it manually each time on boot? | 15:11 |
| ikonia | Rory: if you auto login you have left a session running logged in - it's wide open | 15:11 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, my opengl libraries are symlinked due to my running a 64bit OS but steam runs in 32bit. I installed the latest stable AMD driver and ldconfig wasn't correctly coded so libraries are not linked properly | 15:12 |
| ikonia | you're not mean to leave it "logged in" on the public internet | 15:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: do it manually. its probably just permissions it needs to change. the manual fix should be on the website for the web app. sftp is not the same as ftp btw | 15:12 |
| moxie | my firefox isnt working | 15:12 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: ldconfig isn't coded correctly ?? | 15:12 |
| Rory | MrDyne: Then you should set up TeamSpeak and Mumble as upstart scripts | 15:12 |
| m1sf1t | moxie: any more information? are you getting any errors reported? | 15:12 |
| Rory | MrDyne: That way you can manage them like "sudo service minecraft start" etc | 15:13 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: So if SMF needs an ftp not SFTP connection; what should I do? do i need to install any other package beside SSH? | 15:13 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, when i start steam, i receive the following error, "OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering" do you know how to fix it | 15:13 |
| Rory | MrDyne: There's a guide on how to do it for Minecraft here http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Tutorials/Ubuntu_startup_script | 15:13 |
| Rory | MrDyne: I'm sure you can also work out how to adapt it for teamSpeak as well :) | 15:13 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: if you want to give it ftp access then you'd have to install and configure an ftp server ( which i would not recommend ). Normally i'd just perform the manual fixes. | 15:13 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: I have no idea how to fix it without looking into it more, but it suggests opengl is not interfacting with your hardware drivers for the video card correctly at a glance | 15:13 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: it is about 20 file that needs changes in code and also in permission ( installing tapatalk on smf) | 15:15 |
| skinkitten | how do I install microsoft ergonimc keyboard 4000 | 15:15 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, i believe it has to do with running a 64bit OS but steam runs as 32bit so there's some symlinking done within the /usr/lib/fglrx directories to point to the correct lib's so steam can run correctly | 15:15 |
| skinkitten | I plugged it in and there is no response | 15:15 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: realistically there not reason why a php app should need ftp access, all the developer needs to do is preserve permissions when tarring the archive. | 15:15 |

| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, i can't since i don't know how to run glxinfo as 32bit | 15:16 |
| ikonia | why do you need glxinfo ? | 15:16 |

| ikonia | jinglescafe: why would re-installing firefox do anything ? | 15:17 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: why don't you explain what' "not working" | 15:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: if thats the case then either install an ftp client, or find a script that will do that for you, OR, use another forum software that doesn't require you installing a security threat | 15:17 |
| jinglescafe | When we click firefox, it brings us to the login screen. | 15:18 |
| MrDyne | Rory: install the terminal "screen" package then you can have the autostart script load the server in a screen socket which you can connect to if you need to run server commands without having to be in the game. | 15:18 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: what login screen ? | 15:18 |
| jinglescafe | The Ubuntu Login Screen | 15:18 |

| jinglescafe | Okay | 15:22 |
| Rory | MrDyne: Sounds like good advice | 15:22 |
| jinglescafe | it says /tmp/. /kit/firefox | 15:22 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: ok, so that is not where firefox is installed | 15:23 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: that means you have installed firefox/updated firefox in a non-standard way | 15:23 |
| Rory | MrDyne: "screen" is an absolutely essential package for any server IMO anyway, it allows you to re-attach to your terminal session over SSH at a later time | 15:23 |
| jinglescafe | I installed all the updates from the software update. | 15:23 |
| jinglescafe | is that wrong? | 15:23 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: the sftp command connects with the server nicely but when transfaring data says Permission denied. | 15:24 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: no, however your firefox binary should not be in /tmp/kit/firefox | 15:24 |

| bekks | hitsujiTMO: ah, thats uninteresting :D | 15:34 |
| jinglescafe | I reinstalled the FireFox | 15:34 |
| bobpit | lunitik, you are saying that mutliarch is useless? I do not need it? | 15:34 |
| motaka2 | Rory: I dont understand those instructions | 15:34 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: ok, so now you have the information that page says you need | 15:34 |
| jinglescafe | It says I must pay money to unlock the machine. | 15:34 |
| lordcrusader | <bekks> no i have not backup for some of them. | 15:35 |
| lunitik | bobpit: where have you understood that from in my words? | 15:35 |
| jinglescafe | Why do I have to pay? | 15:35 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, lol, i have no idea what to do with it. | 15:35 |
| jinglescafe | I thought ubuntu is free. | 15:35 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: ubuntu is free | 15:35 |
| Rory | motaka2: Have you booted from the LiveCD | 15:35 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: what are you actually doing | 15:35 |
| Rory | jinglescafe: What message are you seeing? | 15:35 |
| bobpit | lunitik, yes.... I am sorry | 15:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: can you pastebin the output of: ls -l /var/www | 15:35 |
| motaka2 | Rory: Yes and I see a page in front of me suggesting to choose a language | 15:35 |
| lunitik | bobpit: I am really saying I don't remember what stuff looked like 18 months ago. | 15:35 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: i didn't have ftp while installing it . i did install manually not by the install.php;;;; now i am trying to install a plugin (tapatalk == post to froum from android devices) and that needs ftp too | 15:36 |
| lordcrusader | <bekks> is there any way to resolve it .. pls give some guidelines . thanks | 15:36 |
| bekks | lordcrusader: do you have a medium to backup your files now? | 15:36 |
| lunitik | bobpit: I think I am suggesting you upgrade unless there is a real reason you want such old software. | 15:36 |
| Rory | motaka2: Boot from the Live CD and select the option to "Try ubuntu" | 15:36 |
| TDGPU | bekks: SMF simple machine forum;;; it is an php script | 15:36 |
| jinglescafe | Department of Homeland Security’s ICE Cyber Crime Center, | 15:36 |
| lordcrusader | <bekks> ya i have | 15:36 |
| jinglescafe | I did no crime. | 15:36 |
| TDGPU | bekks: like the one on ubuntu forums | 15:36 |
| lunitik | bobpit: most software is written for the newest stuff, especially desktop software. | 15:36 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: I suggest you talk to the cafe owner about their network | 15:37 |
| bobpit | lunitik, I have the latest ubuntu 12.04 lts and I want to stick to it. You suggest I upgrade Skype, Multiarch or Ubuntu? | 15:37 |
| bekks | TDGPU: Obviously, thats scamware. | 15:37 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: it sounds like there is a serious problem with these machines and his network that is nothing to do with ubuntu | 15:37 |
| lunitik | bobpit: Ubuntu. | 15:37 |
| jinglescafe | I am the cafe owner. | 15:37 |
| TDGPU | bekks: which onr? :D | 15:37 |
| motaka2 | Rory: Seems it is loading | 15:37 |
| bekks | TDGPU: "onr"? | 15:37 |
| bobpit | lunitik, I prefer the LTS, as it is SUPPOSED to be more stable | 15:37 |
| lordcrusader | <bekks> does need to replace my harddisk..or i can solve it | 15:37 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: ok, please run the following commands and show me the output | 15:37 |
| bekks | lordcrusader: You need to backup your files and you need to relace your harddisk. | 15:38 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: ls -la /usr/bin/firefox | 15:38 |
| lunitik | bobpit: It is just supported longer, every release gets constant regression testing and the like. | 15:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: what i'm guessing is that you never changed ownership of the /var/www and had to use sudo when copying over/extracting the SMF files right? | 15:38 |
| huyinghuan | there is a "iptables -I INPUT -p 47 -m state --state ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT" iptables command,but I don't know which file to add it? | 15:38 |
| lordcrusader | <bekks> thank for your guides | 15:38 |
| bobpit | lunitik, I prefer to stay with 12.04. Now do I need to concern with multiarch? | 15:38 |
| motaka2 | Rory: Should it take this long ? It is still loading | 15:39 |
| jinglescafe | Okay | 15:39 |
| lunitik | bobpit: If you want to stay with 12.04, since skype is proprietary, you're gonna have to do without. | 15:39 |
| Rory | motaka2: Depends on your hardware. What are you seeing? | 15:39 |
| Rory | motaka2: a Live CD is slower to load than a real installation | 15:39 |
| bobpit | lunitik, skype download site has a version for 12.04 multiarch | 15:39 |
| bobpit | lunitik, so I am looking into it | 15:39 |

| moxie | strange clothes lol, thats him | 15:42 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, maybe you could explain this. why is there 1 file pointing to 1 and then that points to another. it's so confussing? here's libGL.so -> libGL.so.1, libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.2 Whats the point in even doing that? | 15:42 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: is your user a member of www-htdocs and has the folders got g+ws permission? | 15:42 |
| chro | lunitik, ok I think it goes because I just reported 2 bugs in the same hour | 15:42 |
| bekks | moxie: Yeah, Mr. Smith always wears these strange black clothes and strange black glasses ;) | 15:42 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: I've no idea, I'd have to look at the problem properly, I've not been paying attention | 15:42 |
| jinglescafe | ubuntu is virus free | 15:42 |
| moxie | jinglescafe, use system restore | 15:42 |
| jinglescafe | thats what i was told! | 15:42 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: this isn't a virus | 15:42 |
| lunitik | bobpit: The skype package is supposed to depend the lib32-foo packages, which is probably why it is labeled "multiarch"... newer versions of apt just use :i386 at the end of the package to determine... stop thinking so much. | 15:42 |
| Rory | jinglescafe Can you take a picture of what you're seeing? | 15:43 |

| thai-2012 | hi! please help? How to install opera next to Ubuntu 12 04? I don't see opera in Software center | 15:47 |
| bobpit | lunitik, so Multiarch is installed and working correctly? I need to close this subject | 15:48 |
| jinglescafe | I pardon | 15:48 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: do not paste any more information, contact an IT professional to validate your network then re-install ubuntu from a trusted source | 15:48 |
| truebattleaxe | sudo apt-get install opera | 15:48 |
| pfifo | ubuntuaddicted: it looks like either you installed the driver improperly, or your graphics card dosent support direct rendering to begin with | 15:48 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: there is no point with anymore discussion | 15:48 |
| hurdorbsd | yash you from India? | 15:48 |
| thai-2012 | truebattleaxe :) | 15:48 |
| jinglescafe | I will try Opera now. | 15:48 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: no no no no no | 15:48 |
| lunitik | bobpit: multiarch isn't a thing you can install, it is just packages compiled for another arch. | 15:48 |
| jinglescafe | thank you truebattleaxe | 15:48 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: until you are confident your network is "ok" - there is no point doing anything else | 15:48 |
| truebattleaxe | no problem | 15:48 |
| truebattleaxe | it should work in terminal | 15:48 |
| ubuntuaddicted | pfifo, the card supports it because I had this working just last night. BUT I tried to install the latest BETA AMD catalyst and everything got hosed from there | 15:48 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: do not install anything else | 15:49 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: So what should I do;any script of mine that is there and need to do something should operate on nginx user to be able to do its job | 15:49 |
| bobpit | lunitik, so it IS working. ok | 15:49 |
| jinglescafe | Why? | 15:49 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: there is a good chance your network is compromised if it's on every ubuntu machine | 15:49 |
| pfifo | ubuntuaddicted: well revert back to what worked | 15:49 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: you need to get your network validated / secured before doing anything else | 15:49 |
| hurdorbsd | guys actually I want to use Ubuntu or ubuntu based disto as my full time OS now .. I am a Debian user .. But I want to know if my modem would work on 13.10 .. my modem is zte ac8700 | 15:49 |
| jinglescafe | Ubuntu is virus free. | 15:49 |
| ubuntuaddicted | pfifo, im guessing AMD's .run installer does not properly uninstall previous versions etc etc | 15:49 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: but you are right; if someone get the hold on the server i am finished | 15:49 |
| jinglescafe | Thats why I got Ubuntu Computers | 15:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: what are the scripts for ( or do you mean the php scripts ) | 15:49 |
| lunitik | bobpit: I have no idea, I usually define working as "doing what I want" | 15:49 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: this is not a virus | 15:49 |
| motaka2 | Rory: I did it untill using boot repair | 15:49 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: thats why I'm warning you about your NETWORK not your ubuntu machines | 15:50 |
| jinglescafe | what is bb? | 15:50 |
| TDGPU | hitsujiTMO: the php scripts 9currently being SMF and dokuwiki) | 15:50 |
| ubuntuaddicted | pfifo, i can't since the uninstaller in the .run file from AMD's website does NOT remove these errant symlinks to the 32bit and 64bit libraries for opengl stuff | 15:50 |
| jinglescafe | i see firefox , but what is this bb file | 15:50 |
| yash069 | thai-2012: http://deb.opera.com/ | 15:50 |

| moxie | busybox, nc, and firefox....quick load firefox and login to your bank account to check your funds! | 15:51 |
| Rory | motaka2: So you have done "step 1" which is "launch boot repair" | 15:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: can I ask where you got the guide for this setup? | 15:51 |
| Rory | moxie: Now follow step 2 | 15:51 |
| yash069 | thai-2012: use the method here .. there was no ubutnu package for opera .... http://deb.opera.com/ | 15:51 |
| bobpit | lunitik, https://wiki.debian.org/skype says about activating multiarch, to make sure Skype works | 15:51 |
| ubuntuaddicted | pfifo, that's my last resort yes. I have a partition image of my / partition so I coudl do that but I am trying to understand what steam needs and how to fix this instead of just reinstalling.

| pfifo | ubuntuaddicted: learn what is installed by your installer then write a script to remove it all. | 15:53 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: there is no point re-installing the systems at this time | 15:53 |

| ikonia | jinglescafe: do you understand that if your network is compromised - you will just have the same problems again | 15:53 |
| jinglescafe | iknoia, you tell that to my customers. | 15:53 |
| jinglescafe | they have banking they need to do | 15:53 |
| bekks | jinglescafe: Give us their contacts, we will tell them. | 15:53 |
| Rory | jinglescafe: With all due respect, if you're running an Internet cafe, it's your responsibility to secure your network | 15:53 |
| yash069 | exiy | 15:53 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: no, YOU tell it to your customers that you are unable to run a secure internet cafe after taking their money and they may have lost their personal details to you | 15:53 |
| bekks | jinglescafe: First you need to ensure your network isnt compromised anymore. | 15:54 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: you are putting your customers at huge risk | 15:54 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: this conversation needs to end now | 15:54 |
| ubuntuaddicted | pfifo, i could do that also. here's what glxinfo is reporting and I believe i need that libGL.so.1 to point to /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL instead of it pointing to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 because that libGL version is from mesa and apparently doesn't do direct rendering | 15:54 |
| jinglescafe | Rory, where do i send the picuter? | 15:54 |
| pfifo | ubuntuaddicted: you could try symlinking it | 15:55 |
| DTB | firefox does not fault the site? | 15:55 |
| thai-2012 | so i'm here: http://deb.opera.com/opera-beta/dists/stable/ what i must do next? sorry, i'm only start learn Ubuntu | 15:55 |
| Rory | jinglescafe: Put it on http://imgur.com or whatever you prefer, and then share the URL in this channel | 15:55 |
| ubuntuaddicted | pfifo, that's what's all screwed up, is the symlinking and what I am trying to fix | 15:55 |
| ikonia | DTB: no, it appears the firefox binary has been replaced | 15:55 |
| pfifo | ubuntuaddicted: to remove a symlink use the 'rm' command to add a symlink use the 'ln' command, good luck | 15:56 |
| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: I can only tell you what i'd do. if you were to start from scratch for the /var/www directory: sudo rm -r /var/www; sudo mkdir /var/www; then create the group www-user andd your user to that group. then: sudo chown root:www-user /var/www; sudo chmod g+ws /var/www; relog and that would get you the neccessary permissions so that your user can administrate the web apps without compromising the security of the d | 15:57 |

| hitsujiTMO | TDGPU: then install everything as normal. you won't need sudo to write to that dir at all. you might need to make sure nginx and php-fpm are running as umask 0002 but thats only a minor issue | 16:00 |

| Rory | fishcooker: It looks like your package lists are corrupted somehow. I have a script which sorts that (and other package-related errors) out quite a lot of the time. It is here http://rory.sh/fixpackages - you can download and run it, or rn the commands one-by-one yourself | 16:04 |
| bekks | jinglescafe: youre computers are NOT safe. Your network is compromised. | 16:04 |

| ikonia | jinglescafe: to where ? | 16:06 |
| jinglescafe | to my account so i can post it | 16:06 |

| jhutchins_wk | !fixgrub | 16:07 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 16:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | jenielle: that suggests that part of windows is still there | 16:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | jenielle: what way did you install? | 16:08 |
| jhutchins_wk | It suggests that Grub did not install correctly to the first bootable drive and Windows is still trying to load. | 16:08 |
| jenielle | right that's what i figured but that should mean i have a bad download of the system files | 16:08 |
| jhutchins_wk | jenielle: No, the installer would be unlikely to complete in that case. | 16:08 |
| hitsujiTMO | jenielle: are you on the live cd now? | 16:08 |
| jhutchins_wk | jenielle: The problem is simply with the bootloader. | 16:08 |
| Rory | jenielle: It's likely that the Windows bootloader is on the 1.5tb drive which is being booted from, whereas the Ubuntu installer may have installed it to the 500gb drive | 16:09 |
| jenielle | erase the current operating system and intall ubuntu........that the install method i used | 16:09 |
| jhutchins_wk | jenielle: The system uses checksums to insure it doesn't install bad softwarea. | 16:09 |
| Rory | jenielle: If you change your BIOS to boot from the other hard drive, does it work? | 16:09 |
| jenielle | imade sure i used the 1.5 to install ubuntu. because on the 500 all i have on there are pics and music. no operating system. | 16:10 |
| jenielle | no i tried that already | 16:10 |
| Rory | jenielle: Are you on the Live CD now? | 16:11 |
| jinglescafe | DTB, How do I accept your file transfer? | 16:11 |
| hitsujiTMO | jenielle: are you in the live cd now? | 16:11 |
| jenielle | by the way im on my wifes laptop | 16:11 |
| fishcooker | Rory: what happen here .. http://paste.ubuntu.com/6464333/ | 16:11 |
| jinglescafe | Okay, i got it. And I run it? | 16:11 |
| jenielle | that's how im talking to you | 16:11 |
| jhutchins_wk | jenielle: A couple of common problems are that the drives are detected in a different order by the installer than by the installed system, or that people install grub to a partition instead of to the drive itself. | 16:11 |
| jhutchins_wk | jenielle: You could look at the link above to grub2 and it will give you instructions on how to fix it. | 16:12 |
| jenielle | my cp wont boot up into windows or ubuntu | 16:12 |
| Rory | fishcooker: Can you run "sudo mv /var/lib/apt /var/lib/apt.bak" | 16:13 |
| jinglescafe | jenille: what is wrong? | 16:13 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: paste the photo please. | 16:13 |
| Rory | fishcooker: fishcooker and then "sudo mv /var/cache/apt /var/cache/apt.bak" | 16:13 |
| hitsujiTMO | jenielle: i'd recommend this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 16:13 |
| jenielle | grub2? | 16:14 |
| Rory | jenielle: Grub2 is the ubuntu boot loader | 16:14 |
| BluesKaj | one should always seththe windows drive as default (if windows is installed) then ubiquity will install grub to the mbr on that drive , tha's been my experience | 16:14 |
| hitsujiTMO | jenielle: 2nd option in that link | 16:14 |
| Rory | jenielle: The boot-repair option linked above will "auto-magically" fix stuff | 16:14 |
| SASDOE | jinglescafe: to confirm: you do know you CANNOT let your custommers do any banking on your computers until you have dealt with the problem .? | 16:14 |
| samuelx | Are there nightly builds of 13.10 that include updates that came out after the release? | 16:14 |
| bekks | jinglescafe: Where is your picture upload? | 16:14 |
| Rory | samuelx: No | 16:15 |
| bekks | SASDOE: He knows and seems to ignore that fact. | 16:15 |
| Rory | samuelx: LTS releases like 12.04 occasionally get their updates rolled into new isos (we're on 12.04.3 now, for example) but it's not worth it for non-LTS releases | 16:15 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: no. any builds after that are trusty | 16:15 |
| jenielle | ok. but what i don't understand is that i installed ubuntu last time along side my current operating system and it work flawlessly | 16:15 |
| Rory | jenielle: People have explained what the problem might be, and how to fix it | 16:15 |
| SASDOE | jenielle: that's the magic of computers for you | 16:16 |
| pfifo | samuelx: there is the *-updates repos, thats the closest thing | 16:16 |

| motaka2 | Rory: nothing changed | 16:16 |
| samuelx | Dang... Here's my problem. I'd like to install 13.10 with an encrypted root but there's a bug with a missing USB driver that causes crypt-setup to not accept input at boot. Supposedly fixed in new releases. | 16:17 |
| ikonia | jinglescafe: got your photo uploaded yet ? | 16:17 |
| samuelx | I was hoping to be able to install a newer version so I wouldn't have to muck about with chroot/update via a live cd to get a bootable system | 16:17 |
| jenielle | rory: doesnt matter which version that i had installed? | 16:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: can you chroot to the filesystem and i can tell you how to fix the bug | 16:17 |
| jinglescafe | i sent it to Rory. | 16:17 |
| Rory | jenielle: What do you mean? You are running a different Live version to what you have installed? | 16:17 |
| pfifo | ubuntu supports encrypted root now? | 16:18 |
| motaka2 | Rory: no | 16:18 |
| samuelx | pfifo: Yep ... pretty slick too. | 16:18 |
| bekks | pfifo: It always did. | 16:18 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: Hey you helped me out with this a little while back but I couldn't get it to work so put it aside for a while. | 16:18 |
| motaka2 | i hate ubuntu | 16:18 |
| Rory | motaka2: no what? | 16:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: you can also fix it at the end of the install. | 16:18 |
| jenielle | i installed on my cp version 13.10 | 16:18 |
| Rory | motaka2: You're free to use whatever OS you like | 16:18 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: Rather than muck it up again I was hoping there was a newer image i could use that had the fix. | 16:18 |
| jinglescafe | mot aka, ubuntu is good. its free its better than windows 95 I had installed | 16:18 |
| wilornel | Hey guys. Yesterday I had trouble setting up Ubuntu alongside Windows 8, so I decided to just use Ubuntu on that laptop. Problem is, the same error popped up when installing Ubuntu : "grum-efi-amd64-signed failed to install..." . Now, I guess the solution to that problem is to boot my live USB through Legacy mode in order to install Ubuntu in legacy mode. Before doing that.. I had to ask what you guys think and, what exactly UEFI add | 16:18 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: At the end of the install? How? | 16:18 |
| jenielle | there is a another version 12.04 | 16:18 |
| pfifo | bekks: no it didnt, you had to use the alternate installer for a long time to get anything special setup | 16:18 |
| jinglescafe | I am teasing about 95! | 16:19 |
| wilornel | grub* | 16:19 |
| jinglescafe | lol | 16:19 |
| motaka2 | Rory: what should ido? | 16:19 |
| jinglescafe | I made a funny | 16:19 |
| jinglescafe | oh | 16:19 |
| senderosc | . | 16:19 |
| senderosc | ciao | 16:19 |
| jinglescafe | Cops showed up, I need to go | 16:19 |
| senderosc | come si fa il cancelletto? | 16:19 |
| bekks | pfifo: So Ubuntu supported full disc encryption already. | 16:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: when it comes to the the "restart" bit hit <ctrl> + <alt> +<f1> then you can chroot to the install dir and fix it that way | 16:19 |
| Rory | motaka2: On the Grub boot menu, select your Ubuntu option and press E to edit the parameters before booting. Scroll down and delete the words "quiet splash" then press Ctrl-X to boot | 16:19 |
| SASDOE | quick question: i was hoping to run a mail server on my ubuntu server, and was hoping to have a service similar to that offered by mailnull, ie having a main "domain name", and sub domains | 16:19 |
| Guest33550 | what happened to the standalone installer where you could install and uninstall like a progarm in windows? | 16:20 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: Ah ... open a new virtual term. Is there a list of the chroot commands somewhere? | 16:20 |
| bekks | Guest33550: It is called "synaptic" and you can install it. | 16:20 |
| Rory | !wubi | Guest33550 | 16:20 |
| ubottu | Guest33550: Wubi allows you to install or uninstall Ubuntu 12.04 LTS from within Windows ( version 7 or earlier ) in a simple and safe way. Wubi is INCOMPATIBLE with UEFI, Windows 8 Certified computers, and Windows RAID arrays. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for more information.

| Guest99721 | ye | 16:21 |
| bekks | pfifo: zfs support is already there. | 16:21 |
| wilornel | Does it really matter if Ubuntu is standalone in UEFI or Legacy mode? | 16:21 |
| Guest33550 | Rory: Thank you! | 16:21 |
| pfifo | bekks: not the good stuff, you still need PPAs (unless this changed in the last 60 days) | 16:21 |
| Rory | Guest33550: No problem, I guessed right \o/ | 16:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: see the chroot section here: https://wiki.tenmilesout.net/wiki/Ubuntu_Saucy_Debootstrap_Efi_Minimal_Install | 16:21 |
| BluesKaj | wubi ?? good luck with that , Guest33550 | 16:22 |
| SASDOE | did anyone answer me? lost connection! | 16:22 |
| bekks | pfifo: zfs will never be included in the linux kernel due to its license. | 16:22 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: its the lines after "Mount environment file systems." | 16:22 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: Awesome | 16:22 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: I'm reading through it now. I tried something similar last time but must have missed one of the dev devices | 16:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: obviously replace install to what ever path cd mounted your filesystem as | 16:23 |
| Guest33550 | One more thing, will WUBI work with x64? | 16:23 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: After I setup the chroot do I have to manually edit anything for the new initramfs or if I update does the new package have it? | 16:23 |
| wilornel | Does it really matter if Ubuntu is standalone in UEFI or Legacy mode? | 16:23 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: I vaguely remember someone saying they add to add a module for ohci_usb | 16:24 |
| bekks | wilornel: Ubuntu isnt in those modes at all. | 16:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: you need add an entry to the modules file and update initramfs .... | 16:24 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: ok cool. So add the module manually. | 16:24 |
| wilornel | bekks : from ubuntu's website : you can install Ubuntu in EFI mode or not. | 16:24 |
| bekks | wilornel: Read: "you can install Ubuntu if you computer is in EFI mode or not" | 16:25 |
| bekks | wilornel: The Ubuntu installation stays the same. | 16:25 |
| Guest33550 | it automatically installs x64 or x86 depending on the architecture. Never mind | 16:25 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: ok i'm gonna try this again ... i'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again! | 16:25 |
| wilornel | okay | 16:25 |
| wilornel | but does it matter in any way? | 16:25 |
| bekks | wilornel: No. | 16:25 |
| wilornel | performancewise? | 16:25 |
| wilornel | ok good | 16:26 |
| wilornel | what pushed "someone" to create UEFI? | 16:26 |
| dcope | anyone using monit in here? | 16:26 |
| dcope | everytime i run it i get no output | 16:26 |
| jenielle | ok im burning the boot repair disk right now | 16:26 |
| Guest33550 | wilornel: UEFI's been in development for a long time, at least 8 or 9 years i think | 16:27 |
| motaka2 | Rory: it doesnt work | 16:28 |
| wilornel | Guest33550: Actually, I'm reading about it and it seems like Intel started working on it in 1998 | 16:28 |
| Rory | motaka2: No, but you will see an error this time hopefully | 16:28 |
| wilornel | Guest33550: only thing is, I don't understand at which level does UEFI work? | 16:28 |
| motaka2 | Rory: I dont see any errors | 16:28 |
| SASDOE | Rory: what email server are you running and how can i create domain names and sub domains easily ? | 16:28 |
| Guest33550 | wilornel: UEFI is actually on the hard disk (at least on my win 8 laptop) | 16:28 |
| Rory | SASDOE: I'm running Postfix, and I have no idea | 16:29 |
| bekks | SASDOE: the email server is totally unrelated to registering domains, and setting up MX records. | 16:29 |
| wilornel | Guest33550: and it rules the way different parts of the computer interact with eachother? | 16:29 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: uefi is a replacement for BIOS. | 16:29 |
| Guest33550 | wilornel: UEFI is like BIOS, Only it supports larger hard drive sizes (larger than 30 TB) and is more flexible | 16:29 |
| SASDOE | Rory: no i mean i'd have a real domain name, an account and a "sub account", as in account.sub@domain.com | 16:29 |
| Rory | SASDOE: Work on getting basic emails set up first | 16:30 |
| wilornel | BIOS is what windows has been created on top of, right? | 16:30 |
| SASDOE | Rory: could i easily setup something like this with postfix? | 16:30 |
| Guest33550 | No | 16:30 |
| Guest33550 | BIOS is Basic Input Output System | 16:30 |
| bekks | SASDOE: Sure. | 16:30 |
| Guest33550 | every computer uses it | 16:30 |
| Guest33550 | macs use UEFI However | 16:30 |
| SASDOE | nice | 16:30 |
| wilornel | oohh ok | 16:30 |
| SASDOE | i'll give it a try | 16:30 |
| Rory | SASDOE: yes I think so, you can do all sorts. Do you mean that foo.bar@domain.com will go to the same mainbox as bar@domain.com? | 16:30 |
| Rory | mailbox* | 16:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: such discussion is offtopic here but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface | 16:31 |
| wilornel | ok got it got it! | 16:31 |
| SASDOE | Rory: yes exactly, and i could block emails to spam.bar@domain.com, or receive emails to new.bar@domain.com instantly as well | 16:31 |
| Rory | SASDOE: I'd assume you can. I have [anything]@domain.com going to the same mailbox and that was done with a pattern | 16:31 |
| Guest33550 | One question about WUBI | 16:32 |
| Guest33550 | what if it screws up BOOTMGR | 16:32 |
| SASDOE | Rory: cool thanks | 16:32 |
| bekks | Guest33550: Then you have to repair your boot manager. | 16:32 |
| Rory | Guest33550: which you can do with a Windows install DVD | 16:32 |
| Guest33550 | is there a chance that will happen | 16:32 |
| Rory | Guest33550: Yes of course, but a small one | 16:32 |
| Guest33550 | i havent used WUBI in like 2 yeaars | 16:33 |
| Guest33550 | years* | 16:33 |
| bekks | Guest33550: Saying "no" is just a lie at that point. | 16:33 |
| bekks | Guest33550: Dont use Wubi. | 16:33 |
| Rory | Guest33550: I strongly recommend "against" using it though | 16:33 |
| bekks | Guest33550: Either install Ubuntu as dualboot or in a vm. | 16:33 |
| BluesKaj | Guest33550. why not try virtualbox | 16:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | Guest33550: wubi is not recommended, try a virtual machine or live iso instead | 16:33 |
| wilornel | I put my BIOS into legacy mode and now I can't boot my live USB... | 16:33 |
| Guest33550 | BluesKaj: Already did, tried virtualbox and vm ware | 16:34 |
| Guest33550 | too laggy | 16:34 |
| SASDOE | what happended to cafeguy? | 16:34 |
| bekks | Guest33550: Then use a dualboot. | 16:34 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: legacy mode? or legacy usb mode? | 16:34 |
| Guest33550 | i have acutally screwed my disc drive up | 16:34 |
| BluesKaj | Guest33550. then the best alternative is to install ubuntu on it's own partition | 16:34 |
| Guest33550 | i dropped the laptop with a disc running inside and it hit the side and shattered all over the drive | 16:35 |
| Guest33550 | im waiting for a replacement | 16:35 |

| samuelx | I tried just adding 8.8.8.8 to resolve.conf but it didn't do anything | 17:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: resolv.conf gets regenerated everytime networking is restarted. try add "nameserver 8.8.8.8" (without quotes ofc) to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head and restart networking then | 17:21 |

| pytess | hi.I am using ubuntu | 17:21 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: Ok ... trying it now | 17:21 |
| pytess | started recently | 17:21 |
| pytess | i first used windowd8.made it dualboot.later i tried installing ubuntu once more.then I guess windows 8 partion is gone | 17:22 |
| MrDyne | How would I make a script or program run at bootup under a particular user account without having to login to anything? | 17:22 |
| pfifo | hitsujiTMO: if you delete the symlink /etc/resolv.conf and replace it with a normal file, it wont get overwritten on restarts | 17:23 |
| pytess | is it possible to acess any datas in other drive | 17:23 |
| MrDyne | Like LAMP, it runs under www-data user and auto starts on boot. | 17:23 |
| bekks | pytess: If your Windows is gone, you cannot access it anymore. If you just have another disk, you can access the other disk. | 17:24 |
| bekks | pfifo: the more easy way is to configure nm correctly. | 17:24 |
| trism | rwc2: G_SLICE=always-malloc firefox | 17:24 |
| rwc2 | trism, k, ill have to try something else | 17:24 |
| pfifo | bekks: i dont agree, removing dnsmasq is exponetially harder then deleting a symlink | 17:25 |
| trism | rwc2: does firefox and thunderbird still start and work? if so you can ignore that error, we all get it | 17:25 |
| hitsujiTMO | MrDyne: call the app with: sudo -u <username|id> or su -c <command> <user> | 17:25 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: Maybe a dumb question but should I do that edit on the live system or the chroot? Same question for restarting networking | 17:26 |
| trism | rwc2: the problem is some people have firefox immediately crash on starting | 17:26 |
| rwc2 | trism, firefox doesn't start, no splash screen even | 17:26 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: ahh, you're still on the live system. what are you needing apt-get for? | 17:27 |
| rwc2 | trism, the thunderbird screen asking for sudo password appeared once, but nothing since | 17:27 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: Don't I need to run apt-get to update the system? | 17:27 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: So that I can add the ohci_usb module and fix the initramfs (so cyprtsetup works at boot) | 17:28 |
| pytess | ok.bekks.I had installed windows on my c drive | 17:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | samuelx: you don't need to update the system. 2 secs and i'll find the exact commands | 17:28 |
| pytess | but i coudl not access d dvrive from uuntu | 17:28 |

| pfifo | pytess: can you pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' | 17:29 |
| pytess | ok | 17:30 |
| samuelx | hitsujiTMO: So just add "ohci_usb" to "/etc/initramfs-tools/modules" and then " update-initramfs -u"? | 17:31 |
| bekks | pytess: Did you even try to mount it manually? | 17:31 |

| wilronel | I tried installing Ubuntu standalone, so it reformated the disk. so no, Windows is not on the machine, I can't boot anything right now. | 18:11 |
| MajSlayer | well i'm on a dedicated server, i didnt have to sudo anything... | 18:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: cool. can you boot the live cd so in uefi mode | 18:12 |
| wilronel | I can't install Ubuntu in Legacy mode? | 18:12 |
| wilronel | I don't WANT uefi, it won't install | 18:12 |
| MajSlayer | and where is this beek pfifo? i dont see the link | 18:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: i'm unsure if you can, BUT, since ubuntu is for the most part is installed already we can try finishing the installation manually | 18:13 |
| wilronel | no, it is not installed for the most part. Only GNU/Linux is. | 18:13 |
| pfifo | MajSlayer: ubuntu isnt designed to be run as root, but most ISPs ignore that, you can still run commands with sudo, but since your already root, it is optional | 18:13 |
| zykotick9 | pfifo: DON'T use sudo, if you are # | 18:14 |
| MajSlayer | well the problem i'm having is .php software doesn't want to allow file movements because root owns all the folders | 18:14 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: | 18:14 |
| pfifo | zykotick9: DONT tell me not todo something with out giving an explanation | 18:15 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: wait, slightly confused here, when you say gnu/linux what are you reffering to exactly? | 18:15 |
| zykotick9 | pfifo: if you are root already, using sudo is redundant (might lead to issues as well) | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | why are WE putting random WORDS in all caps? | 18:15 |
| pfifo | !chown | MajSlayer | 18:15 |
| ubottu | MajSlayer: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 18:15 |
| wilronel | I am refering to what Ubuntu trial displays when I try to install Ubuntu | 18:15 |
| MajSlayer | aye well its like 40,000 files | 18:16 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: If I re-try to install Ubuntu, it will ask if I want to replace GNU/Linux or install it next to GNU/Linux. | 18:16 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: Before trying to install Ubuntu, "Windows 8" was standing where "GNU/Linux" is at the moment | 18:17 |
| pfifo | MajSlayer: there is a -R switch to make recursive changes | 18:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: ah ok. | 18:17 |
| cejixo3 | hello guys | 18:17 |
| cejixo3 | xen pci passtrough ??? | 18:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: the thing is, grub is the last thing to get installed during the installation, so you can just manually install it and you should be good to go | 18:17 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: Depends when. Sometimes grub installs after 3 minutes, sometimes after 30mins into the installation process | 18:18 |
| MajSlayer | okay let me read about it, like i said i'm new, and never made a second user on this server. so i'm half way thinking i should do a full reinstall on it, create a second user | 18:18 |
| zykotick9 | cejixo3: i'd suggest using alis (/msg ubottu alis for details) to find a xen channel. that's VERY specialized support question. | 18:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: no grub is always last | 18:18 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: well... not it's happening after 3 mins | 18:19 |
| cejixo3 | thanks | 18:19 |
| MajSlayer | seems root owns everything, and the only way to fix the problems is to set every to 777 | 18:19 |
| wilronel | now it's happening after 3 mins* | 18:19 |
| MajSlayer | and i know thats a bad idea.lol | 18:19 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: let me double-check. | 18:19 |
| pfifo | MajSlayer: i would go with something like 'chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www' | 18:20 |
| MajSlayer | thanks man | 18:20 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: it only takes a few minutes to install ubuntu. just boot the live in uefi mode and we can have a look | 18:20 |
| MajSlayer | that is the main area i'm having problems with i'll give it a go | 18:20 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: it takes about 30 minutes, right? | 18:20 |
| MajSlayer | i'll ssh into the server now and give it a try | 18:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: wha? no. i've never seen an ubuntu install take longer than 10 mins | 18:21 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: wow. | 18:21 |

| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: Well I had many times where after about 10 minutes, it would fail because of grub. and once it failed for the same reason but after 40mins.. | 18:22 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: unless maybe its a full install from the mini.iso | 18:22 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: no, I'm not using any mini.iso | 18:22 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: okay, apparently you are right. I have Ubuntu 12.04 installed right now | 18:22 |
| wilronel | so, how do I fix it? | 18:22 |
| wilronel | hitsujiTMO: boot-repaid? | 18:23 |
| wilronel | repair* | 18:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilronel: boot to the live cd and install an irc client there. will make things easier | 18:23 |

| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: just paste the link here | 18:31 |
| veryhappy | wilornel: was first checking if anyone responses, in another channels one waits for years for an answer. the program that i used is srware iron (a chrome like browser) installed it in the .deb format, but now its not really installing anymore like it should. | 18:31 |

| jhutchins_wk | suyash1629: Why not do a standard partitioned install? | 18:32 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO, ^ | 18:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: ok. can you now run: sudo apt-get install gdisk && sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda | pastebinit | 18:33 |
| GnubLinux | Veryhappy - See here: http://www.srware.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=6913 | 18:33 |
| jhutchins_wk | veryhappy: If it's not built specifically for the release of Ubuntu you're running it won't install. You're not telling us what the errors are though, for all we know your disk is full. | 18:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: i just need to verify what's what | 18:33 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO, what is that thing? | 18:33 |
| wilornel | and what does -l specify? | 18:33 |

| wilornel | hitsujiTMO, ^ | 18:34 |
| MrDyne | Is there an easier way to install and Java JRE 7 and keep it update? I hate having to download it an manually install it and do whatever those install guides say to do. | 18:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: hmm seems /dev/sda2 is marked as a windows partition. weird | 18:36 |
| jhutchins_wk | suyash1629: Hm, no, there have been ways to do a standard install from Windows, but I don't know if they're current. | 18:36 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: ok. try this: mkdir install | 18:36 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO, well, that Ubuntu installation was installed in UEFI mode, right? So I guess that's why | 18:36 |
| wilornel | done | 18:36 |
| veryhappy | jhutchins_wk: if you dont know my system you better dont tell me my disk is full, btw: the program WAS the heck installed on my ubuntu system if you could read you would have read it. | 18:36 |

| wilornel | hitsujiTMO, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6464999/ | 18:41 |

| Rory | richard305: Have you rebooted since doing that? | 18:43 |
| richard305 | Rory: multiple times | 18:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: can you humour me and once again try: sudo chroot install | 18:43 |
| Rory | richard305: Can you install the "nvidia-current" package? | 18:43 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO, same thing. | 18:44 |
| richard305 | Rory: sure, i can give that a shot. i'll reinstall bumblebee while i'm at it | 18:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: hmm, i think your issue stems from the wrong partition id for /dev/sda2 but this error is a bit odd. | 18:45 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO, can't we just format everything?? | 18:45 |
| ensonic | hi, doing my first steps, setting up a PPA to have some more recent gstreamer for my app for 12.04 (need them for drone.io). I copied the packages from a different PPA where the are build for newer ubuntu, in my PPA the started to build, but the hang at the tests | 18:45 |

| Kurvivor | Hello! i am currently in a process of making friends of my Ubuntu PC and windows laptop. I have shared printer between them, and a folder (using samba) | 18:50 |

| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: can you reboot and try the installer again | 18:51 |
| wilornel | sure. | 18:51 |
| wilornel | see ya later | 18:51 |
| richard305 | Rory: okay back -- modprobe is still saying nvidia isn't found | 18:52 |
| zykotick9 | Kurvivor: fyi, this is obviously fat/ntfs - SO, it's ALL determined by how it gets mounted! you can't apply the typical *nix (POSIX really) permissions to either fat or ntfs, so the regular tools in ubuntu aren't going to be able to help. check on how the drive is being mounted. sorry i don't use either of those filesystems (ok, sometimes fat32 on removable media) so i don't know the details. good luck. | 18:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | Kurvivor: can you pastebin the output of: mount while the share is mounted ofc | 18:57 |
| Kurvivor | zykotick9: i doubt it a little; folder is shared on ubuntu, and i simply created it in filesystem | 18:58 |
| Rory | richard305: Can you pastebin the output of sudo update-alternatives --config x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf | 18:58 |

| richard305 | Rory: shit. | 19:24 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: I don't remember exaclty. It happens during boot... | 19:24 |
| richard305 | Rory: it won't turn on.\ | 19:24 |
| richard305 | Rory: at all. | 19:25 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: what could it mean? | 19:26 |
| Rory | richard305: Your entire PC won't turn on at all? | 19:26 |
| richard305 | Rory: at all. totally dead.\ | 19:27 |
| pfifo | is it plugged in? | 19:27 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: i've seen that on 12.04 server on virtual machines. if its the exact same error (reffering to sda) then it can be safely ignored | 19:27 |
| Rory | richard305: Installing the nvidia driver won't do that, it is something else unrelated | 19:27 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: well, I mean, it only appears for a fraction of a second... | 19:27 |
| jhutchins | richard305: Sounds like it was in the process of failing. Video driver was just a coincidence. | 19:27 |
| richard305 | Rory: okay, holding the on button for ten or fifteen seconds seems to have turned it on again | 19:28 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: ...or 2 seconds.. I don't know. But it doesn't seem like a big issue indeed :) | 19:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: can you again install pastebinit and we'll have a look: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && dmesg | pastebinit | 19:28 |
| Smilex | My sound settings seem to have broken. I've noticed that Spotify and Youtube have started bugging out, and QJackCtl is spitting out this message http://hastebin.com/mahafunojo.vhdl | 19:28 |
| trinque | Hi, I've got an Ubuntu docker image, trying to run a few upstart services. Two services installed via apt-get can be started via service ... start. One whose config is copied to /etc/init during the docker build cannot be started. | 19:28 |
| Smilex | How do I reset my sound settings? | 19:29 |
| richard305 | Rory: i still can't login though | 19:29 |
| trinque | Is there some way to tell upstart to look for new config files manually? | 19:29 |
| richard305 | can you take me through undoing the changes from before? | 19:29 |
| Rory | richard305: Do you have another user, or can you try to log in as the guest user? | 19:29 |
| Rory | richard305: No because we're almost done | 19:29 |
| trinque | initctl reload-configuration also seems to do nothing | 19:29 |
| richard305 | Rory: okay, i'll try | 19:30 |
| Rory | richard305: But if you wanted to, you would run that update-alternatives command again, and select option 2 | 19:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | trinque: you can comment out the: start on statement if you want to stop ot from loading automatically | 19:30 |
| richard305 | yeah what was that again, just in case?\ | 19:30 |
| trinque | hitsujiTMO: I'm trying to get an upstart config I copied in to be recognized by upstart | 19:31 |
| Rory | richard305: sudo update-alternatives --config x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf | 19:31 |
| richard305 | Rory: in the meantime, trying guest login -- still nothing but the cursor on the screen | 19:31 |
| trinque | it says no such service when I try to start it | 19:31 |
| richard305 | Rory: I do have the cursor though | 19:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | trinque: its named <service>.conf and put in /etc/init right? | 19:32 |
| Rory | richard305: I've found some reports that the following fixes this: sudo rm /home/username/.Xauthority* && sudo apt-get install --reinstall xorg | 19:32 |
| richard305 | Rory: I'll reboot and give it a shot | 19:32 |
| Rory | richard305: You can do that from ctrl-alt-f2 | 19:33 |
| Rory | richard305: reboot after | 19:33 |
| richard305 | Rory: okay | 19:33 |
| trinque | hitsujiTMO: correct | 19:33 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: I'm getting "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?" I'll wait for the updates to finish, I think that's what's causing the error | 19:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | trinque: then that would point towards a malformed config. can you pastebin it? | 19:34 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: oh and that happens when I try to install pastebinit | 19:34 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: is software center opened or updatemanager? | 19:34 |
| wilornel | hitsuujiTMO : Yes update manager is opened | 19:35 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: ^ | 19:35 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: I'll be back in about 30 minutes, will you still be online? | 19:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: once its closed you should be able to install it then | 19:35 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: alright | 19:35 |

| richard305 | Rory: just my cursor :( | 19:37 |
| trinque | hitsujiTMO: the docker image I'm working from is very stripped down; I'm wondering if upstart is semi-busted in it | 19:37 |
| pfifo | whats plural for linux, linicies? | 19:38 |
| sddhrthrt | lcear | 19:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | trinque: i doubt it, if upstart was busted it prob wouldn't load the system | 19:38 |
| Neurotoxin | can ubuntu one not upload files that are currently opened in another program? | 19:38 |
| sddhrthrt | sorry. please ignore me. | 19:38 |
| Rory | pfifo: It doesn't have a plural because "a linux" isn't a thing. it's a proper noun | 19:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | richard305: can you pastebin ~/.xsession-errors | 19:38 |
| richard305 | if it's long, it'll take a while | 19:39 |
| Rory | richard305: sudo apt-get install pastebinit ; pastebinit ~/.xsession-errors | 19:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | richard305: install pastebinit | 19:39 |

| Bahman_Dool | sit on my fick | 19:42 |
| Bahman_Dool | *dick | 19:42 |
| Rory | lmao | 19:42 |
| hitsujiTMO | trinque: that does seem to be a minimally working script. maybe try replacing the exec with some test like: exec echo "foo" >> /tmp/bar | 19:43 |
| Bahman_Dool | try `sudo rm -rf /` | 19:43 |
| Rory | !danger | 19:43 |
| ubottu | DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND! That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! | 19:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | richard305: what desktop environment is installed? | 19:45 |
| Bahman_Dool | hitsujiTMO, it's none of your business | 19:46 |

| MrDyne | That command, Lol, it's like a press Alt + F4 for "game settings" joke but on your entire hard drive in Linux. | 19:46 |

| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: did you reboot? | 19:54 |

| hitsujiTMO | wilornel: since you got the error? | 19:55 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: No, I did not. I also did not reboot after my updates | 19:55 |
| wilornel | hitsujiTMO: the error displays during boot. It's just a small text that flashes for 2seconds | 19:56 |

| NEone | Hello. I have one openvpn server process running in Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. I want to run multiple instances. That first one instance has been automatically added to OS'es autostart (has something to do with init.d, I guess). How can I add more to autostart? | 20:07 |
| fixmypc956 | I read about fstab yesterday and couldnt understand it | 20:08 |
| bekks | NEone: All you need to do is to configure openVPN to accept multiple VPN, etc. which is the only reason for multiple processes. | 20:08 |
| IamTrying | OK - thank you, pfifo . Ubuntu 13.10 will have right? | 20:09 |
| NEone | Or more generally: How do I add my own custom call of a process with params everytime the OS starts? Has something to do with "upstart", I heard? | 20:09 |
| bekks | !upstart | NEone | 20:10 |
| ubottu | NEone: Upstart 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/ | 20:10 |
| NEone | thanks | 20:10 |
| richard305 | Rory: okay, I undid the update-alternatives thing and now it'll log in fine 2/3 times, with the third of three requiring a reboot and retry | 20:10 |
| pfifo | fixmypc956: your mounting your partition on /home... there is already stuff in /home that becomes inaccessable when you you do that, so you might want to mount your partition somewhere else, or copy the data that is already in /home to the partition. | 20:10 |

| fixmypc956 | pfifo: so my initial install of the ubuntu has /home directory | 20:12 |

| bng | Is it safe to use disk with bad sectors for no critical data? The disk knows about them so it won't use them, am I right? | 20:15 |
| compdoc | bng, reallocated sectors? | 20:15 |
| pfifo | fixmypc956: you might want to mount the partitions somewhere else, this is the MAIN IDEA of what im trying to tell you, understand this fist | 20:15 |
| apofis | bng: few bad sectors hmm... in a short time you should expect more ;) | 20:15 |
| compdoc | bng, the bad sectors tend to keep growing | 20:16 |
| bng | compdoc: smart reports reallocated sectors, my LVM commands report stuff like "read failed after 0 of 4096 at 123456789" | 20:16 |
| Random832 | back up your data asap | 20:17 |
| bekks | bng: Your disk is broken, you should replace it as soon as possible. | 20:17 |
| richard305 | Rory: thanks for trying to help | 20:17 |
| morten771 | is there a quick command to check what desktop environment one is using? | 20:18 |
| bng | apofis, compdoc I know it won't last, that is not a problem. I am just asking, will the system use only healthy space, since it know s about the bad sectors? | 20:18 |
| morten771 | so one know if it is gnome2, gnome3, cinnamon, mate, xfce, kde that is running? | 20:18 |
| bekks | morten771: No, there is no such command. | 20:19 |
| morten771 | ok. could have been nice :-) | 20:19 |
| fixmypc956 | pfifo: ok so I somehow created a /home directory on the partition I created on the HD, and it seems that I have /home on the usb drive which has ubuntu....how do I get rid of /home on the usb drive | 20:19 |
| zykotick9 | morten771: check your DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID= in "env" from terminal [I'M NOT SURE IT'LL HELP!] | 20:19 |
| morten771 | so I guess one have to sort of probe for each, like first run a command that say "yes" if it gnome2 etc | 20:19 |
| morten771 | aha ok I check | 20:20 |
| bng | apofis, compdoc I have only 3 reallocated sectors, the disk could last for non-critical work I think, I'd just like to know whether LVM will stupidly use the three sectors with "input/output error" or not | 20:20 |
| pfifo | fixmypc956: i usually copy the contents of /home from the old location to the new location. then once Im comfortable that all my data exists in the new location, i delere /home all together and create a new empty directory to mount my home partition on | 20:21 |
| bng | I suppose this message from lvcreate as well as vgcreate must be because of reallocated sector, right? "read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error" | 20:21 |
| zykotick9 | morten771: if the above doesn't help, you could try "sudo update-alternatives --config x-window-manager" but again NOT SURE IT'LL HELP! | 20:21 |
| morten771 | oh | 20:22 |
| fixmypc956 | pfifo: I have nothing on original /home, unless something was installed with the initial installation...I am sure I created /home on the hard drive which I made one whole partition | 20:24 |
| bekks | bng: You have reallocated sectors. The disk is going to die. | 20:24 |
| bekks | bng: I wouldnt use it at all, not even for trash :) | 20:24 |
| pfifo | fixmypc956: I cant say for sure what the install process puts in /home, but im pretty certian it puts some important stuff there | 20:25 |

| fixmypc956 | pfifo: oh crap!!! | 20:29 |
| fixmypc956 | pfifo: what does this mean, 'Could not chdir to home directory /home/rodriguez: No such file or directory'? | 20:29 |
| gordonjcp | fixmypc956: it means you've created a user "rodriguez" but not created a home directory for them | 20:30 |
| pfifo | fixmypc956: there is no such file or directory | 20:30 |
| jhutchins | fixmypc956: That, or you created the user and home directory while something was mounted to /home, and now it's not mounted. | 20:31 |
| pfifo | jhutchins: you got that backwards | 20:31 |
| gordonjcp | pfifo: not necessarily | 20:31 |
| jhutchins | fixmypc956: Given that ubuntu makes it a bit difficult to create a user without creating the homedir, what I said (which is not backwards) is more likely. | 20:31 |
| gordonjcp | fixmypc956: anyway | 20:31 |
| gordonjcp | fixmypc956: how did you create the user "rodriguez"? | 20:32 |
| pfifo | gordonjcp: i know, for sure, his user was created while NOT mounted and now it IS mounted | 20:32 |
| gordonjcp | pfifo: okay, and how do you know that? | 20:32 |
| jhutchins | pfifo: You are correct, that is also possible. | 20:32 |
| pfifo | gordonjcp: cause i gave him the line he added to his fstab | 20:32 |
| jhutchins | gordonjcp: If you mount an empty partition over a partition with data, the mount point will appear empty. | 20:32 |
| fixmypc956 | I dont remember creating the user rodriguez other that when I first installed ubuntu | 20:33 |
| DEagle | gotta tough question: how do I tell one monitor to switch ttys but the other one to stay where it is? | 20:34 |
| pfifo | gordonjcp: jhutchins: ive told this guy like 4 times now, he might not want to mount his partition on /home but somewhere else, but for one reason or another he is ignoring this | 20:34 |
| gordonjcp | pfifo: oh okay ;-) | 20:34 |
| reisio | DEagle: you know how to do both at once? | 20:34 |
| DEagle | 3 at the same time, yep | 20:34 |
| DEagle | but games don't like Xinerama | 20:35 |
| bekks | DEagle: There is no way to switch a single monitor to ttys. | 20:35 |
| DEagle | according to this, there is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiseatX | 20:35 |
| bekks | DEagle: Thats an approach with having multiple X servers. | 20:36 |
| DEagle | but I don't want a whole separate environment, just a different tty for one of them | 20:36 |
| Raymond313 | Holla. | 20:36 |
| bekks | DEagle: Using a single X server, there is no way. | 20:36 |
| DEagle | bekks: right, and I'm running 2 X's | 20:36 |
| DEagle | one in tty7, the other in 8 | 20:36 |
| DEagle | tty7 runs my Nvidia and older ATI | 20:37 |
| DEagle | tty8 does only one monitor from the GeForce | 20:37 |
| DEagle | but the ATI monitor will still have the tty contents on screen when I switch | 20:37 |
| DEagle | but nothing updates, so I might as well get it to update, since I don't feel like turning it off/on all the time | 20:38 |
| Raymond313 | Can I ask a mint question here? | 20:38 |
| bekks | Raymond313: No. | 20:38 |
| bekks | !mint | Raymond313 | 20:38 |
| ubottu | Raymond313: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 20:38 |
| DEagle | so is this too tough for y'all? :P | 20:39 |
| esde | anyone have links explaining which directories i need to configure to backup to preserve repositories, packages, themes, fonts, etc? | 20:39 |
| DEagle | fonts should be in ~/.fonts | 20:40 |
| reisio | esde: mostly /usr/ and /var/ | 20:40 |
| DEagle | oh well, thanks anyways folks | 20:40 |
| esde | ty | 20:40 |
| reisio | esde: you don't need to backup aspects of your system that are mirrored in thousands of places for Ubuntu, though | 20:40 |
| reisio | backup a list of what packages you've installed, that should do it | 20:41 |
| namea | is it possible to change the repos on ubuntu lucid to saucy ones? | 20:42 |
| SchrodingersScat | namea: sounds risky | 20:42 |
| esde | reisio, /var/, /home/ /usr/ /etc/, should backup everything i mentioned and my sources.list with the extra sources ive added? | 20:43 |
| esde | and then install my list of packages from my backup list? | 20:44 |
| reisio | esde: you only need to backup config files you've changed, and a list of the packages you've chosen | 20:45 |

| ubottu | SparkyFlary: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 20:56 |

| OnceMe | !nat | Ziber | 20:57 |
| Ziber | I want my ubuntu server (which is currently being used as a router for a VPN), rather than masquerade, to just forward the packets, with source addresses in tact. | 20:57 |

| zykotick9 | SchrodingersScat: +1 WPS is exploited by reaver (it can't be disabled on many routers!) | 21:05 |
| wilornel_ | Raymond313: It doesn't have one | 21:05 |

| FlurglerHobbit | hey pfifo! Thanks hitsujiTMO & pfifo | 21:34 |
| FlurglerHobbit | chau | 21:34 |
| sarvsav | Hi, | 21:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | i suppose pressing the butting rather than hitting it might be better. you might break the key if you hit it | 21:35 |
| sarvsav | Whenever i start ubuntu, it starts with max brightness, is it possible to start it with min darkness. | 21:35 |
| sarvsav | *brightness | 21:35 |
| FlurglerHobbit | haha | 21:36 |
| FlurglerHobbit | pfifo: I am almost completely done setting up my server. Right now I am uncompressing some virtual machines in there...after that I will fix this headless issue....I'm so excited xD | 21:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | sarvsav: i always presumed it retained the last setting, but i supposed you could ass a script to lightdm to set the brightness | 21:37 |
| sarvsav | Thanks hitsujiTMO , i will make the change in .bash_profile file. | 21:37 |
| XMLnewbi | *Inappropriate ioctl for device (25) ive bought 3 differnt webcams to try, unable to get a video preview or scan QR codes http://pastebin.com/6XJXi5p9 | 21:38 |
| XMLnewbi | or run cheese | 21:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | sarvsav: you normally find the brightness controls in /sys/class/backlight | 21:39 |
| Xgates | hi guys | 21:40 |
| sarvsav | what will happen if i change the max_brightness value to something like this : 10000000. Does my screen get explode? | 21:40 |
| Xgates | Having some sort of fonts issue in Xchat; http://i.imgur.com/CmEKqhY.png never seen anything like this before, the screen shot is Lubuntu but this also happens in Ubuntu 13.10... Anyone know what's up with this? | 21:40 |
| XMLnewbi | It veryy important i get this working. If some one sits with me and helps debug this till it works ill pay 100$ in bitcoin | 21:41 |
| Xgates | And Xchat also disconnects too | 21:41 |
| Raymond313 | Show me the money! | 21:44 |
| bekks | Raymond313: Stop the offtopic. | 21:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | sarvsav: max_brightness is a readonly param. you can set brightness to anywhere between 0 and max_brightness | 21:44 |
| Xgates | anyone have a clue to this font issue in Xchat? I don't see anything online about this either... | 21:44 |
| Raymond313 | Bye guys! | 21:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | xgates thats not a font issue that loots more like a charset issue | 21:46 |
| Xgates | It happens in both Lubuntu 13.10 and Ubuntu... any clue as to how to fix this? | 21:47 |
| Xgates | hmm odd | 21:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | xgates: whats your system charset set to? and whats the charset for that server set to? | 21:47 |
| Xgates | LOL I forget how to check this... | 21:51 |
| Xgates | errrrrr | 21:51 |
| Xgates | one sec unless you can tell me? | 21:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | xgates: go into the network list, and edit the freenode entry. that charset should be specifiec there | 21:52 |
| Xgates | ok | 21:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | xgates: if it just says "system default" try change it to utf-8 | 21:53 |
| Xgates | well it's the same as the version I'm using on another box the IRC latin hybrid | 21:54 |
| canros | good day, am getting an error when i try to mount a dvd disk into the drive | 21:54 |
| Xgates | nothing working this is weird | 21:54 |
| hitsujiTMO | Xgates: have you specified "use ssl for all the servers" ? | 21:54 |
| canros | mount: wrong fs filesystem type or wrong option on /dev/sr0 | 21:55 |
| canros | i try do it using | 21:55 |
| canros | mount -t udf /dev/sr0 /media/dvd because is a dvd | 21:55 |
| Xgates | LOL sheesh ssl works | 21:56 |
| columb | pfifo, so I just tested every driver provided by jockey-gtk (it's already part of Software & Updates). X.Org X server - LAG, gallium, visual glitches. fglrx same results as with my current flgrx-updates. High CPU and VESA: -100. | 21:57 |
| hitsujiTMO | xgates: 8001 is listed as non ssl on the freenode list but it seems that server is using ssl for that port. might be a good idea to mention it in #freenode | 21:57 |
| Xgates | hmm | 21:57 |

| pfifo | DreamPCs: what do you need help with? | 22:28 |
| Rav3nW00D | Heyo | 22:28 |
| DreamPCs | pfifo I'm sorry I'm trying to get the error message again | 22:28 |
| DreamPCs | Just a sec | 22:28 |
| prawnsalad | hitsujiTMO: nothing as yet.. | 22:29 |
| hitsujiTMO | prawnsalad: it might need a reboot to start it writing again | 22:30 |
| prawnsalad | hitsujiTMO: is there a service i can simply restart instead? or does it actually need a whole system restart.. | 22:30 |
| prawnsalad | hitsujiTMO: oh nvm, rsyslog service | 22:31 |
| prawnsalad | it now has entries :) | 22:31 |
| prawnsalad | thank you! | 22:31 |
| DreamPCs | "Can't have a partition outside the disk!" | 22:31 |
| DreamPCs | That's the error I get after selecting the hard drive to install onto. | 22:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | prawnsalad: keep an eye incase it happens again. whatever caused it might still be messing up | 22:31 |
| DreamPCs | Before the drive was unallocated space (reported by gparted) so I created a partition table (msdos) and formated it to ext4 | 22:32 |
| DreamPCs | Now whenever I try to install Ubuntu, I get that error. I have no idea how to proceed. | 22:32 |
| prawnsalad | hitsujiTMO: ok will do. i just have a crashed db box right now and had to check for errors. if it does happen again, where would i even start to find out whats going on? | 22:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | DreamPCs: can you tell me the output of: sudo fdisk -l | 22:33 |
| pfifo | DreamPCs: go into gparted and create a new partition table, and leave it all unallocated this time, then when installing, manually partition. | 22:33 |

| smaudet | ztane, got any suggestions then? | 22:41 |
| DreamPCs | Damn pfifo I think that letting the install do the formating solved the issue. It appears to be installing now. | 22:41 |
| DreamPCs | Why would manually created the partition beforehand in gparted be a bad thing? | 22:42 |
| DaemonicApathy | Bad formatting? | 22:43 |
| DreamPCs | Do you mean on the software or on me? All I did was create a ext4 partition with all default options | 22:43 |
| DreamPCs | No special partitioning or resizing done. | 22:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | DreamPCs: the installer isn't the best when it comes to figuring out free space when there's multiple drives involved. it was prob trying to create a partition rather than use the existing partition | 22:44 |
| DaemonicApathy | In that case, it's probably just a user-unfriendly setting in the installation process. | 22:44 |
| DaemonicApathy | What hitsujiTMO said. | 22:44 |
| === json is now known as Guest30454 | ||
| hitsujiTMO | DreamPCs: the partition you created is ok. there's nothing wrong with it. its the installer than can be finicky | 22:44 |
| DreamPCs | lol that's crazy. Well either way I'm glad it worked. | 22:44 |
| DreamPCs | Thanks for all your help, I was talking with Google for hours on this one. | 22:45 |
| DaemonicApathy | <3 ext4 | 22:45 |
| pfifo | uhh, ext4 > 3 last time I checked, and you have your terms backwards, so syntax error too | 22:48 |
| hitsujiTMO | pfifo i think he meant 3 ext4 drives > DaemonicApathy | 22:48 |

| smaudet | pfifo, pretty sure he was saying he liked ext4, not that ext3 was better | 22:52 |
| smaudet | ztane, so if I can't remove inodes...then what do I do about bad ones? | 22:53 |
| Muelli | smaudet: I would expect fsck to take care of any "bad" inodes. | 23:01 |

| smaudet | Muelli, hmm ok I'll try that. | 23:06 |
| arielsanflo | my english is so so | 23:06 |
| smaudet | Muelli, otherwise (specifically) its a problem with encryptfs, which seems to like to randomly corrupt, I guess I should read up on that as well. | 23:07 |
| Muelli | smaudet: how do you know? | 23:07 |
| smaudet | Muelli, well the problems have to do with ecryptfs because the logs which inform me of the problem tell me this as well | 23:15 |
| richard305 | anyone know a place in boston (MA) that's really good with ubuntu machines? | 23:16 |
| smaudet | Muelli, also, perhaps unrelated, but these same issues are causing the system to crash | 23:16 |
| Muelli | smaudet: what do the logs say? | 23:16 |
| smaudet | 'Valid eCryptfs headers not found in file header region or xattr region, inode 14958439' | 23:16 |

| JayPro | this is probably basic, but i can't seem to find my files. what happens to a file or folder if you type the following in a terminal "mv <example> ..Desktop"? i mistyped, forgetting the "/" in "..Desktop" | 23:29 |
| hitsujiTMO | JayPro: it gets renamed to ..Desktop | 23:30 |
| lee__ | hello every1 | 23:30 |
| JayPro | nope... i dont see "..Desktop" | 23:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | JayPro: ls -la | 23:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | JayPro: files starting with '.' are 'hidden' files | 23:32 |

| wahben | hello Ubuntuers! I am switching from cloud hosting to my "own" cloud solution. So I have a Debian server in a data center with IP 192..., the eth0 is bridged. I have some virtual machines running Ubuntu. Now everything works, but I don't know what I should set the Gateway as... | 23:33 |
| Private_User | hi all I was wondering is there a log file in ubuntu where every error I encountered is logged and where can I find it? | 23:34 |
| wahben | On the ubuntu machines | 23:34 |
| wahben | I was given a block of IP addresses on a different subnet than the Host machine. | 23:34 |
| ikonia | wahben: do you not think you should not be running a cloud service if you can't manage basic networking ? | 23:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | wahben: you give it the same gateway as the host. is this by anychance ovh? | 23:35 |
| ikonia | wahben: if you can't deal with a simple network setup, do you really feel you can manage a cloud solution | 23:36 |
| wahben | ikonia: Do you think that I didn't already consider that? We are paying way too much for cloud solutions so I'm setting up own cloud | 23:36 |
| ikonia | wahben: right, and you can't manage it | 23:36 |
| ikonia | wahben: so it will cost you more money / time | 23:37 |
| wahben | hitsujiTMO: I was thinking setting the same gateway than the host as well | 23:37 |
| wahben | hitsujiTMO: yes it's OVH | 23:37 |
| wahben | ikonia: by doing it I will learn. I must say i'm offended by your comment. | 23:37 |
| ikonia | wahben: if the truth offends you, that's your problem | 23:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | wahben: ovh actually have a guideline for this scenario: http://help.ovh.ie/BridgeClient | 23:38 |
| ikonia | wahben: I suggest taking it to #debian and explaining how the host is setup, they can help you work out which address you have configured to be your gateway | 23:38 |
| wahben | hitsujiTMO: ah nice! That's awesome I will look at this. | 23:38 |
| pepee | how does kernel backporting works in ubuntu? is there any at all? is it done upstream? | 23:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | and as ikonia has pointed out, there's a very good reason why cloud solutions cost money. there's a hell of a lot you don't need to worry about with them | 23:40 |
| NEone | is there another command (other than uname -a) to query which exact distro is running? | 23:41 |
| bekks | NEone: lsb_release -a | 23:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | pepee: is there a specific reason why you're asking this question? knowing the resoning might allow us to give a better response | 23:42 |
| OerHeks | cat /etc/issue | 23:42 |
| hitsujiTMO | reasoning* | 23:42 |
| NEone | thanks, exactly what I was looking for | 23:42 |
| ikonia | /etc/issue is not a certain way | 23:42 |
| NEone | hitsujiTMO: The release name ("precise", in my case) is not in the answer of "uname -a". But it is in the answer of "lsb_release -a". That's what I was looking for. | 23:44 |
| === sysadmin_ is now known as VlanX | ||
| hitsujiTMO | neone: sorry, my question was directed at someone else | 23:45 |
| pepee | hitsujiTMO, sorry, I was afk for a momen | 23:45 |

| pepee | hitsujiTMO, yes, runtime PM support for the radeon driver | 23:45 |
| pepee | |PM = power management | 23:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | pepee thats put back to 3.13 afaik | 23:46 |
| pepee | hitsujiTMO, yes | 23:46 |
| pepee | btw, wasn't ubuntu going to have a "rolling release"/"devel" repo? | 23:48 |
| hitsujiTMO | pepee, for that you'd have to wait for a mainline release: found http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ but its going to be another few months for 3.13 to be released | 23:48 |
| bekks | pepee: Not until now. | 23:48 |
| cpt_cupcake | Hello! I am trying to connect Mac OS mail with my Mail Server running Ubuntu 13.10 and I am able to receive mails, but not send any. It gives me the error: Mail was unable to connect to server . Can anyone help? :-/ | 23:48 |
| pepee | hitsujiTMO, yes, I'm using rc1 right now | 23:48 |
| hitsujiTMO | pepee: generally what happens with the kernel is that they're fixed for a release and only receive fixes and security updates. for that release. LTS do get new kernels with point releases but are only installed by default on a clean install. otherwise you need to force the change in kernel version | 23:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | pepee: i would expect 14.04 to be released with 3.13 at least | 23:51 |
| pepee | yeah I know | 23:52 |
| pepee | well, that's what I wanted to know, thanks hitsujiTMO | 23:52 |
