| k0rnmuz3 | hitsujiTMO Ok ;) | 01:32 |
| kkkkkkk | i mean, i plug it in, before boot and restarts, during restart, it gets initialized and it should be detected early in network-manager but it took more than a minute to get it detected and sometimes i need to reinsert to get it detected | 01:33 |
| kkkkkkk | why 3g modems are not supported on the fly in ubuntu, why many kind of hassles in using them | 01:34 |

| vats_monroe | is it ok if i pop a question for you guys | 01:44 |

| stroodlepup | hitsujiTMO: but how can that be adjusted then? should i install jupiter? | 01:45 |
| vats_monroe | Well its more of a situation than a question, im trying to install ubuntu 13.10 on my computer and im having trouble doing so | 01:46 |
| vats_monroe | Im using a 4gb USB flash drive and im trying to keep my Windows 8.1 on it, so im going for a dual boot installation | 01:47 |
| vats_monroe | Ive checke for the secure boot and all of that, the thing is when i try to boot my computer from the USB it goes into a loop and just keeps up booting | 01:47 |
| vats_monroe | do you know why, am i doing something wrong? | 01:47 |
| kostkon | postmodern, http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ | 01:48 |
| joossee | vats_monroe, what kind of computer is it? | 01:48 |
| hitsujiTMO | stroodlepup: its a heatsink, its effective just a lump of metal that conducts the heat away from areas around the palm rest to the fan. what the actual issue is more than likely that you have no power management running for your gpu so its on 100% all the time | 01:48 |
| vats_monroe | Toshiba Satellite l755d series | 01:48 |
| Airia | Before that, I would ask did you make a bootable flash drive | 01:48 |
| joossee | vats_monroe, how did you make the USB stick? | 01:48 |
| vats_monroe | yes i did using the universal one | 01:48 |
| Airia | new laptops with Win 8 have that UEFI boot on. You may also need to turn on legacy boot in the BIOS to get it to work correctly | 01:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | vats_monroe: don't use universal usb, it doesn't work for most people. | 01:49 |
| Airia | I just installed Ubuntu on my brothers Win HP laptop | 01:49 |
| joossee | vats and have you hit F12 during boot to get the boot menu? | 01:49 |
| vats_monroe | heres the thing i checked for UEFI but it tells me that i dont support it | 01:49 |
| stroodlepup | hitsujiTMO:so it's just a cpu problem... hmm | 01:50 |
| vats_monroe | yes i hit f12 and select the option to boot from my usb | 01:50 |
| joossee | vats_monroe, what hitsujiTMO said.. can you burn a CD instead? | 01:50 |
| vats_monroe | and thats when it happens | 01:50 |
| hitsujiTMO | stroodlepup: gpu not cpu most likely | 01:50 |
| vats_monroe | dont have any but i can, im just lazy to go buy one lol | 01:50 |
| stroodlepup | so graphics drivers could solve the heating prob? maybe? | 01:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | vats_monroe: or you can try using unetbootin | 01:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | stroodlepup: what gpu do you have? | 01:51 |

| hitsujiTMO | k0rnmuz3: can you try downloading a copy of trusty and seing if that will boot? | 02:11 |
| vats_monroe | and the computer will go into that boot loop anyway | 02:12 |
| vats_monroe | it goes black, then it looks like its going in but it doesnt and starts booting again over and over | 02:13 |
| hitsujiTMO | nkean: how exactly did you install postgresql and can you pastebin the contents of /etc/passwd | 02:13 |
| k0rnmuz3 | hitsujiTMO ok, I'm downloading it. BTW, this error didn't show up when I installed Fedora and ArchLinux | 02:14 |
| hitsujiTMO | vats_monroe: unetbootin works perfectly with 13.10 even tho it does not have a profile for it. ok, what changes did you make in the bios? | 02:14 |
| vats_monroe | so should i go with the latest 13.04 | 02:14 |

| privacyplease | vats_monroe: Do you see a loading screen with a progress bar that does not change? | 02:15 |
| hitsujiTMO | k0rnmuz3: its more than likely an issue with kernel support since you have such new hardware. trusty will atleast come with a newer kernel. if trusty works you can do a debootstrap install of saucy with a newer kernel | 02:15 |

| hitsujiTMO | vats_monroe: no go with 13.10 and unetbootin. but what settings did you change in the bios? did you disable fast boot? | 02:16 |
| vats_monroe | ok on unetbootin it only shows me 13.04 | 02:17 |
| oki_ | good day or good evening to all | 02:17 |
| vats_monroe | loading screen, where? when im booting | 02:17 |
| vats_monroe | and yes i went in on the bios and switched it | 02:17 |
| oki_ | i have a one question, so if you can be help me | 02:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | vats_monroe: dont use the drop down menu, choose by iso | 02:17 |
| vats_monroe | ohhh ok i get you know | 02:18 |
| vats_monroe | my bad | 02:18 |

| wafflejock | can anyone here help me out with how (k)ubuntu is resolving icon files and how I can get a .desktop setup right to load the icons...

| axizor | Hello all, I'm new to Ubuntu and file servers, I just had a few really quick questions... For a basic file storage server, would I use samba? Would it matter if I'd be running Ubuntu Desktop or Server? Also, if I have videos stored on the server, will I be able to play them on the clients machine without having to download them? | 02:21 |
| oki_ | i also see in terminal about databes and check and in terminal show me that is ok, but when i go to run on my localhost show me this message : Error establishing a database connection | 02:21 |
| axizor | Thanks. | 02:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | wafflejock: you mean /usr/share/applications ? | 02:21 |
| oki_ | anybody can hel pe with this problem | 02:21 |
| vats_monroe | hitsujiTMO, by the way i dont know if you have seen the BIOS of this series but theres not much to it, only a couple of options so im assuming im doing it right by changing the order in which the system starts to boot that is to set FDD all the way to the top | 02:21 |
| privacyplease | oki_: You maybe need to setup your wordpress software correctly. | 02:21 |
| anonymous_ | Howdy. | 02:21 |
| hitsujiTMO | vats_monroe: dont change the order use the boot menu | 02:22 |
| wafflejock | yes so I was expecting /usr/share/icons to get the icons but they were installed to /usr/local/share/icons instead | 02:22 |
| wafflejock | hitsujiTMO: I tried copying a .desktop file that was already in the /usr/share/applications to setup one for KeePassX since I didn't see one present | 02:23 |
| oki_ | please can you give me steps how can i folo that, also i delete previously and instaled new bud dont working too | 02:23 |
| privacyplease | oki_: The problem is the settings within the wordpress config do not match your server setup. | 02:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | wafflejock: ah for icons i tihnk its normally /usr/share/icons/hicolor | 02:23 |
| vats_monroe | hitsujiTMO: ok so that would be F12 and i think is the third option ill check it again | 02:23 |
| oki_ | can i provide to you in paste bin | 02:23 |
| SavantSv_d | Thankful for the ubuntu forums.. so many clean fixes. | 02:23 |
| k0rnmuz3 | hitsujiTMO 2 hours to download.... | 02:23 |
| wafflejock | hitsujiTMO: I actually did this previously too I just can't recall if I just hardcoded the path to the icon or if there's some way Ubuntu scans /usr/local/share/icons as well? | 02:23 |
| nkean | hitsujiTMO: From my understanding postgresql should create user postgres during install. From what I can see that did not happen. I've uninstalled it using apt-get purge and reinstalled using apt-get install but the user is still not created | 02:23 |
| privacyplease | oki_: Prehaps you should ask in #wordpress, they will assist you with wordpress issues. | 02:23 |
| oki_ | ok thanx | 02:24 |
| wafflejock | hitsujiTMO: I may just copy over the files to /usr/share/icons but wanted to see if there were other options, or some way to get it to also scan /usr/local/share/icons | 02:24 |
| oki_ | to all , i wil se on that chanell | 02:24 |
| oki_ | thanx again | 02:24 |

| axizor | Does samba support media streaming? | 02:24 |
| nkean | hitsujiTMO: postgresql and postgresql-contrib | 02:25 |
| daftykins | axizor: it's a file sharing protocol | 02:25 |
| axizor | what can i use for streaming | 02:25 |
| privacyplease | axizor: It is possible, but it is very very slow | 02:25 |
| daftykins | no... sharing video files over SAMBA shares is not slow. | 02:26 |
| nkean | axizor: streaming to what? | 02:26 |
| daftykins | axizor: what are you trying to do? | 02:26 |
| axizor | i want a machine that I can store movies and tv shows on that I can stream from clients on windows | 02:26 |
| privacyplease | Not sharing them, but streaming them is slow, atleast when I tried streaming to my xbox it was | 02:26 |
| axizor | stream to* | 02:26 |
| axizor | i need file sharing as well though, to get the media onto the machine | 02:27 |
| privacyplease | Not as fast as using vlc to stream it over the network, atleast | 02:27 |
| daftykins | axizor: sure, so share a folder of media on a Linux server system, then mount that as a network drive on the Windows clients. simple | 02:27 |
| daftykins | i think you're both confusing what media 'streaming' is | 02:28 |
| nkean | axizor: I use samba for my filesharing and NFS to stream the content | 02:28 |
| axizor | ok good, good | 02:28 |
| axizor | thank you | 02:28 |
| wafflejock | hitsujiTMO: thx for the feedback... think I'll find it in this doc http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html looks like it uses $XDG_DATA_DIRS which does contain /usr/local/share for me so just need to do a bit more probing on the filename or something... thx again | 02:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | nkean: damn, so you installed the correct packages alright. 2 secs gonna boot up my dev machine to have a look at the postgres user there | 02:29 |

| Beldar | robert__, Have you customized the grub menu? | 02:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | nkean: i would try: sudo apt-get purge postgresql postgresql-contrib && sudo apt-get autoremove --purge then reinstall the postgresql package | 02:50 |
| robert__ | Beldar_, this particular grub is not custom | 02:50 |
| Beldar | robert__, It seems you can get to grub so what is the OS at the top? | 02:51 |
| Beldar | that one has the grub control | 02:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | robert__: can you pastebin your grub config. that way we can see what is actually happeing | 02:51 |
| robert__ | Beldar_, ok so my WIN7 is the first only one on the list.... after i click windows 7 i get what i believe is called a chainloader where i then have a black and white screen asking me which OS i want... the two options are WIN7 or Ubuntu... AFTER I click ubuntu it sends me back to Grub to boot from sda1 | 02:53 |
| Beldar | robert__, Have you run sudo update-grub in the sda1 OS? and as was suggested post the grub config, and name any other bootloaders like easybcd...etc, | 02:54 |
| hitsujiTMO | robert__: so this is a completely custom grub config? | 02:54 |
| Beldar | uefi or easybcd is my guess | 02:55 |

| BillJobs | I'm having issues trying to get Netflix to stream on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. | 03:10 |
| hitsujiTMO | robert__: ahh that explains the odd setup you were reffering to. install boot-repair and run that | 03:11 |
| robert__ | hitsujiTMD, thank you, trying now! | 03:11 |
| Beldar | robert__, use the bootrepair and be sure to save the bootinfo summary url generated when you run it to post here if needed. | 03:11 |
| BillJobs | Whole reason I switched to Ubuntu was because I thought it would solve an issue I was having with Netflix on Windows 8.1, but now I can't even figure out how to get the Netfli desktop app to launch | 03:12 |
| Beldar | not sure it will fix a wubi problem however. | 03:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | BillJobs: the only thing i've heard that works is http://www.webupd8.org/2013/08/pipelight-use-silverlight-in-your-linux.html | 03:12 |
| robert__ | beldar, thank you i will be sure to save the url and post here if needed | 03:12 |
| jmgk | hello | 03:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | robert__: yeah one bit of advice. NEVER use wubi | 03:13 |
| Beldar | robert__, bootrepair should get any linux partitioned to be booting, the wubi not sure. | 03:13 |
| daftykins | WUBI should be murdered | 03:14 |
| BillJobs | Thanks hitsujiTMO, I'll give it a try | 03:14 |

| hitsujiTMO | Richhh: ctrl + c to cancel the test | 03:15 |
| nkean | hitsujiTMO: used those commands and reinstalled but still having the same issues, no /etc/postgresql, postgres user, etc. | 03:15 |
| Richhh | no output | 03:16 |
| hitsujiTMO | nkean: try:sudo dpkg-reconfigure postgresql or sudo dpkg-reconfigure postgresql-contrib | 03:16 |
| Richhh | hitsujiTMO: no output | 03:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | Richhh: can you fireup alsamixer and make sure nothing is muted. (00) = Stereo (MM) = muted press m to unmute/mute and up + down arrows to adjust volume | 03:17 |
| KI4RO | Well, I solved my Rhythmbox issue....I took the system from 13.10 back to 12.04; works perfectly again | 03:18 |

| Ari-Yang | [22:18:39] <KI4RO> Well, I solved my Rhythmbox issue....I took the system from 13.10 back to 12.04; works perfectly again ---> 13.10 is still buggy I guess.... But why would you use rhythmbox? :V | 03:22 |

| hitsujiTMO | vats_monroe: yup | 03:24 |

| vats_monroe | hitsujiTNO: its a match so thats not it | 03:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | k0rnmuz3: ok, so if trusty boots then that means a kernel update for saucy is required in order to install it. so you have 2 choices: stick with trust ( but its still alpha so probably a bit buggy ) or you need to do a debootstrap install of saucy from the trusty live cd and install the mainline kernel ( very complicated ) | 03:59 |

| vats_monroe | wafflejock: at the momento in Mexico | 05:02 |
| vats_monroe | why? | 05:02 |
| Djyou | !poll | 05:02 |
| ubottu | 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. | 05:02 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: ha oh meant that metaphorically not physcially | 05:02 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: lol | 05:02 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: just meant where are you at this point in the process can you refresh those of us who didn't see what's going on | 05:03 |
| vats_monroe | heres my situation i have been trying litteraly all day trying to install ubuntu on my laptop | 05:03 |
| vats_monroe | with no success | 05:03 |
| xmetal | !details | 05:03 |
| ubottu | Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 05:03 |
| vats_monroe | im trying to do it with a flas drive | 05:03 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: was yours the Win 8.1 you want to dual boot | 05:03 |
| vats_monroe | booting from a flash drive | 05:03 |
| vats_monroe | yes | 05:04 |
| vats_monroe | thats the one | 05:04 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: okay yeah I recall the conversation a bit now so you've seen | 05:04 |
| wafflejock | !uefi | 05:04 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 05:04 |
| vats_monroe | so i figured hey why not try it out on a VM | 05:04 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: okay what was the result there? | 05:04 |
| xmetal | ah ... apparently things have changed a bit in win8 from what i here... i dualboot with xp and linux on one pc and win7 and linux on this pc | 05:04 |
| vats_monroe | so i did, and di get to the ubuntu menu however i get this message when i try to install to test it "This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU, unable to boot - please use a kernel appropiate for your CPU. | 05:07 |
| wafflejock | I just have Kubuntu 13.04 with Win 8 in a VM won't upgrade to 8.1 but I don't really care just use it for photoshop, desktop is dual boot OS X for testing and Win 7 for gaming | 05:07 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: believe that can be a problem with the VM configuration not necessarily an issue otherwise | 05:07 |
| xmetal | :) haven't really used PS here since I found and got use to using GIMP | 05:07 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: i set it up to it uses amd-vx | 05:07 |
| wafflejock | xmetal: congrats I'd like to get there eventually but still stuck | 05:07 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: but still no luck, at least i got to see the screen this time lol | 05:07 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: any ideas | 05:07 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: well it's just saying that it expects a 64 bit architecture processor but it's only seeing the proc as 32 bit | 05:08 |
| ubulost | Does anyone know how to delete "recent" files from ubuntu 13.04? deleting from "privacy" did not work and deleting ".recently-used" didn't do it either | 05:09 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: you could just get 32 bit ISO and try that out might be better for within the VM anyhow since it takes more memory to run 64 bit | 05:10 |
| xmetal | ubulost, Bleachbit may help | 05:11 |
| xmetal | !bleachbit | 05:11 |
| vats_monroe | afflejock: thats crazy!!! lLOL, ill download the other ISO then, samething happened to me with backtrackr3 | 05:11 |
| xmetal | hmm ,... bot doesn't like me | 05:11 |
| xmetal | ah ... i doesn't know about bleachbit | 05:11 |
| ubulost | I'll check it out | 05:11 |
| xmetal | i know Bleachbit is in the Mint (default) repo's | 05:11 |
| xmetal | hmm | 05:11 |
| === megabitdragon is now known as zz_megabitdragon | ||
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: do you have any idea why i wasnt able to boot it from the flash drive if i do have a 64 bit architechture | 05:19 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: no I think it's unrelated, even with the wrong iso for an architecture it usually tells you | 05:19 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: think that's just a problem booting from USB possibly | 05:20 |
| ubulost | You can delete recent files by just highlighting them and chosing delete from the drop down menu and this does not delete the file referenced. That was the answer | 05:20 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: have you tried with other flash drives if possible | 05:20 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: or is a disc an option? | 05:20 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: disc is not an option but ill give it another shot with a different usb after the download finishes | 05:21 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: it just beats me not being able to do anything, I know i dont have a super computer but its no that bad considering you know? LOL | 05:21 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: yeah the 32 bit should work on 64 bit anyhow but if you check the md5sum of the iso vs the one provided on the page you can verify the download is all good beforehand, the flash drives have been finicky for me, some brands work without a hitch others don't work, different ports on the computer sometimes makes a difference etc. etc. | 05:22 |
| === home is now known as Mongo44 | ||
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: thats going to be fun.... trying all the ports with differente flash drives => | 05:25 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: yeah that's why I asked if a disc was an option... | 05:26 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: some computers and flash drives it's no problem every time... I have a System76 computer and some Kingston 8GB flash drives that I loaded a bunch of random ISOs on and they all work every time, but with other laptops and desktops my experience has been variable | 05:27 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: geeeez i have to make a run for some disks later this week, ive just been to lazy, you know that we have virtual mounting, virtual this and that, usb's its hard to remember those round things lol | 05:27 |

| vats_monroe | wafflejock: i use kingstone as well, all of them are, hope thats not the issue :< | 05:28 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: well mine that are kingston work they say DTSE9 on them | 05:29 |

| wafflejock | vats_monroe: yeah I like em, pretty on the cheap and I just stuck stickers on 5 of em and loaded them up with different ISOs... should really play with them again, one is just used for data but the other 4 are fair game at any time :) | 05:31 |

| xmetal | that was interesting lol | 05:36 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: thats funny, I never really saw that in that particular maner, interesting but you have a point its been a while since I had any of those issues | 05:36 |
| wafflejock | xmetal: yeah wifi used to be a constant nightmare, it still causes some people problems here or there but doesn't seem nearly as prevelant | 05:37 |
| wafflejock | I was always using ndiswrapper before like 10.04 or something | 05:38 |
| flugh | wifi was horrible for me until i realized it was not a common misspelling for "wife". i'm not nearly as scared of it now | 05:38 |
| xmetal | the issue was the only way i could get online to get the wifi drivers ... was wifi connection | 05:39 |
| vats_monroe | lol | 05:39 |
| xmetal | support has improved in most of the distros i have been trying | 05:39 |
| wafflejock | haha | 05:39 |
| wafflejock | xmetal: yeah I always had ethernet around | 05:39 |
| wafflejock | xmetal: now 95% of the time I'd say it just works | 05:39 |

I've already installed fglrx, and have followed the guide on the "unofficial amd driver ubuntu wiki" to installing catalyst, and so on. However, when trying to launch games, it gives me errors like "Update your OpenGL drivers", or "You need fglrx-experimental-12 or above installed". Anyone with a similar issue? | 05:45 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: i must be an idiot, i set up the vm for other linux instead of other linux 64, i hate myself | 05:46 |
| vats_monroe | ubuntu running | 05:46 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: oh I'm sorry, I thought of that too sort of but figured it wasn't worth asking | 05:46 |
| wafflejock | !yay | vats_monroe | 05:46 |
| ubottu | vats_monroe: Glad you made it! :-) | 05:46 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: please shoot me | 05:46 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: hah well now you can start tweaking to your hearts content or play some Civ 5 and deal with it tomorrow :) | 05:47 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: that feeling when you know you did something dumb enough to not let anyone know about, thats how i feel | 05:47 |
| wafflejock | haha well confession done so you're in the clear :) | 05:47 |
| vats_monroe | wafflejock: lol | 05:47 |
| q0 | how can i underclock/decrease (not sure about the terms here?) CPU and memory of a laptop which is hard to open | 05:48 |
| q0 | i wasn't planning to break it ofc | 05:48 |
| vats_monroe | Thanks for everything, ill start checking ubuntu, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for all your help and suport, its great to have people to come to when you are in trouble | 05:48 |
| q0 | still any ideas appreciated :) | 05:48 |
| wafflejock | vats_monroe: no problem glad you were able to get it sorted ultimately | 05:50 |
| wafflejock | q0: generally speaking it's something you would do through the BIOS configuration, if your BIOS doesn't support such voltage throttling options and such then you would need to rely on the governer files I believe but YMMV | 05:51 |
| xiaolin | can I ask a MAAS question here? | 05:52 |
| xangua | xiaolin: don't know about it but there is #maas | 05:53 |
| q0 | have you seen examples of tuned hardware even when it wasn't supported ? and approaches like these could be stable ? | 05:53 |
| Mongo44 | Does anyone know how to reduce screen brightness below the dimmest given setting? I use redshift doesn't seem to help much. | 05:54 |
| wafflejock | q0: I've tweaked my BIOS settings before on my desktop to reduce the clock speed of the proc without issue, in terms of modifying the governer files I'm not sure | 05:54 |
| wafflejock | q0: the clock speed changes I made aren't avaialble on my laptop BIOS though it doesn't have as many options... it just depends on the BIOS | 05:55 |
| GrendelT | So here's an odd one: i have a miniITX machine (embedded Radeon video), i can boot to Unity but one monitor (HannsG) says "Out of Range" other monitor (an HP) works fine. | 05:56 |
| wafflejock | q0: but there are some CPU governer files that are meant to limit the clock rate for each proc to some degree, not sure how much control this really gives you though | 05:56 |
| wafflejock | GrendelT: Out of Range means the frequency and/or resolution isn't supported | 05:56 |
| GrendelT | If I get it working on the HP monitor *then* hook to the HannsG, the HannsG works just fine, but the Display setting still shows HP monitor | 05:56 |
| GrendelT | weird, huh? | 05:56 |
| wafflejock | GrendelT: does sound strange yes | 05:56 |
| wafflejock | GrendelT: perhaps it thinks the first monitor supports higher or lower settings than it actual supports | 05:57 |
| GrendelT | wafflejock: it works through all resolutions | 05:57 |
| GrendelT | wafflejock: is there a way to explicity say which res and rate i want? | 05:58 |
| nixm | wafflejock good to see you again | 05:58 |
| GrendelT | wafflejock: (and have it ignore what it detects?) | 05:58 |
| nixm | wafflejock hopefully all is going good for you | 05:58 |
| wafflejock | nixm: yup doing pretty well | 05:58 |
| * GrendelT brb | 05:59 | |
| wafflejock | GrendelT: gotta be honest here I'm not entirely sure ATM what the deal is with Xorg.conf but I believe it's what you need to be looking at | 05:59 |
| wafflejock | nixm: hope you're doing good as well... actually brb myself | 05:59 |
| GrendelT | wafflejock: kthx | 06:00 |
| wafflejock | !xorg | GrendelT | 06:00 |
| ubottu | GrendelT: The X Window system is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart X, type 'sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm' on an ubuntu system. replace with kdm on Kubuntu. To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution . Also see !xorgconf | 06:00 |
| wafflejock | np good luck on that one... video issues can be troublesome | 06:01 |
| GrendelT | wafflejock: looked there, but saw nothing regarding monitor detection | 06:02 |
| GrendelT | i have to admit, i'm old school Slackware user (from 97) | 06:02 |
| GrendelT | been gone for a long time and was throughly impress with how far the desktop has come | 06:02 |

| Beldar | fling, Long past end of life, no regular repo access and no support basically. | 06:13 |
| GrendelT | wafflejock: got it. i'm using a radeon... I needed to run 'aticonfig --initial' and then configure my supported resolutions. | 06:14 |
| fling | wafflejock: Beldar: is it possible to install wine on it somehow? | 06:14 |
| GrendelT | wafflejock: xrandr says the monitor supports a higher res than it really does, so i had to omit that from the list | 06:14 |
| Beldar | fling, we can't really help you here with that, you need to get a supported release installed. | 06:14 |
| wafflejock | GrendelT: ah nice congrats | 06:15 |
| GrendelT | if i use synaptic instead of the ubuntu sofware center or apt-get --- will they conflict? | 06:15 |
| fling | Beldar: is it possible to partly upgrade without breaking things? | 06:15 |
| GrendelT | or is synaptic just a front end for apt-get? | 06:15 |

| fling | Beldar: gentoo here, I never used ubuntu :> | 06:16 |
| wafflejock | GrendelT: it will mostly stop you but try not to have dpkg doing two installs at once | 06:16 |
| GrendelT | right | 06:16 |
| wafflejock | apt uses that and everything else basically uses apt | 06:16 |
| Beldar | fling, So what is it you have? | 06:16 |

| wafflejock | MVanDruff: use lcpic -k to see what's going on | 06:58 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: lcpci -k | 06:58 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: should show all your PCI devices and what module is loaded for it | 06:58 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: you can also use alsamixer by doing sudo apt-get install alsa-utils | 06:59 |
| wafflejock | !alsa | 06:59 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 06:59 |

| fling | Jordan_U: without any upgrade | 07:00 |
| linuxlite1969 | anyone here using xfce4? | 07:01 |
| fling | senaxfz: because I needed the fastest way to run an app in wine on windows | 07:01 |
| Jordan_U | fling: You're running code with *known security vulnerabilities*. That is nowhere near a good idea. | 07:01 |
| wafflejock | fling: that seems so crazy? why wine in windows? | 07:01 |
| fling | wafflejock: because windows sucks and is not running it's own apps | 07:01 |
| wafflejock | linuxlite1969: not regularly have it on my AWS instance | 07:01 |
| MVanDruff | http://pastebin.com/NaJF32YU | 07:02 |
| fling | Jordan_U: I don't need it anymore, needed to run once | 07:02 |
| MVanDruff | this is what happens when i try both those commands in terminal http://pastebin.com/NaJF32YU | 07:02 |

| linuxlite1969 | how can i reset all the setting to default? | 07:04 |
| wafflejock | linuxlite1969: think you would want to use dpkg-reconfigure | 07:07 |
| wafflejock | not sure exactly what package to target though | 07:08 |
| wafflejock | linuxlite1969: what's wrong atm | 07:08 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: sorry it was lspci -k | 07:09 |
| linuxlite1969 | ok ill try | 07:09 |
| wafflejock | not sure wht I wrote earlier | 07:09 |
| MVanDruff | Subsystem: Creative Labs Device 0058 | 07:09 |
| wafflejock | the alsa-utils just showed you already have it | 07:09 |
| wafflejock | alsamixer | 07:09 |
| wafflejock | that will show a mixer that's in alsa-utils package | 07:09 |
| wafflejock | and F6 in there to switch devices | 07:10 |
| wafflejock | if you don't see it there then the driver/module you see loaded in the lcpci -k isn't working for some reason or the hardware has a problem | 07:10 |
| MVanDruff | how do i get to alsa mixer | 07:10 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: you should have it since it said you already have alsa-utils | 07:10 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: alsamixer | 07:10 |

| wafflejock | MVanDruff: can sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-utils | 07:14 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: dpkg -L alsa-utils | 07:14 |
| wafflejock | that shows all the files in alsa-utils | 07:15 |

| wafflejock | shams: you have Blender installed? | 07:21 |
| wafflejock | shams: and you go into the preferences and enable CUDA? | 07:21 |
| Beldar | MVanDruff, Not sure to be honest, the alsamixer not showing is rather strange is why I asked. | 07:21 |
| shams | wafflejock, when i render using GPU it dose not work. | 07:21 |
| shams | gives me blank screen | 07:21 |
| shams | yes i did, and it shows in render panel too | 07:22 |
| MVanDruff | ok when i use file manager to go to usr and bin i see alsamixer there | 07:23 |
| Beldar | MVanDruff, If it were me I would start with making a another user account and see if this is all the same there, and if so try a live enviroment. | 07:23 |
| MVanDruff | but it wont load | 07:23 |
| shams | Wafflejock, i have ubuntu 12.04, Nvidia 640, Blender 2.69 i did many fresh install, one time it worked, but i messed up by upgrading my ubuntu because i wanted 32bit lib for some other program, now i dont remember how i did it. I am trying for a week now. | 07:25 |
| wafflejock | shams: so you just went into the preferences and changed it to use the GPU? | 07:28 |

| shams | hello guys, is there someone who can help me setting up my blender on ubuntu with CUDA Nvidia please. | 07:36 |
| jmgk | imran_: try Wine | 07:37 |
| imran_ | i tried but not able to get adobe flash plugin | 07:37 |
| imran_ | i dont want the windows user to disturb | 07:37 |
| geirha | imran_: connect to it with remote desktop? | 07:37 |
| eg0x | imran_: you could use wine (winetricks) to emulate ie on linux | 07:38 |
| imran_ | but user i s getting log off when iam connection with remote desktop | 07:38 |
| imran_ | actually i want to open separate session of windows from ubuntu | 07:38 |
| Jordan_U | imran_: Why do you need IE? | 07:38 |
| geirha | Ah, you probably need a server install for that. Anyway, that's more of a Windows question anyway. | 07:38 |
| imran_ | for running pact software | 07:39 |
| imran_ | which is ie supported software which run only in ie7 | 07:39 |
| eg0x | imran_: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=25 | 07:39 |
| imran_ | thanks for the link | 07:41 |
| imran_ | iam checking will come back to you soon | 07:41 |

| imran_ | internet explorer | 07:50 |
| eg0x | garshasp: are you following any kind of instructions? usually its not nessessary to edit the grub conf | 07:50 |
| eg0x | imran_: you`ve used winetricks for the installation? | 07:50 |
| garshasp | eg0x yes i am lol | 07:50 |
| imran_ | yes | 07:50 |
| garshasp | eg0x can i have a word with you in pm i am going crazy lol | 07:51 |
| eg0x | garshasp: nope, iam at work, please ask your questions here | 07:51 |
| garshasp | eg0x can you look at the instructions? | 07:52 |
| garshasp | it says to put some menuentry script into the cfg | 07:52 |
| garshasp | the code looks mostly legit when compared to the official ubuntu stuff, with some slight differences | 07:53 |
| eg0x | garshasp: sure post it as link or on pastebin | 07:53 |
| garshasp | mostly syntactical order differences | 07:53 |

| garshasp | http://logytips.blogspot.com/2013/10/how-to-install-linux-ubuntu-1204-lts.html | 07:53 |
| garshasp | dont laugh, this is the most coherent version of the process ive encountered thus far | 07:53 |
| imran_ | when iam installing ie7 getting erro update failed | 07:54 |
| garshasp | i get as far as the partition, but i skipped the config part | 07:54 |
| imran_ | when iam installing ie7 getting error update failed | 07:54 |
| garshasp | i think this will work but i dont want to edit the config file and with this specious bootloader | 07:54 |
| imran_ | ? | 07:56 |
| eg0x | garshasp: if you own a usb stick, you could use unetbootin (with that iso of ubuntu you want to install) and make it bootable. there will (usually) be no need to edit grub configs | 07:56 |
| garshasp | eg0x i dont have a usb stick and want to do a hard drive install | 07:56 |
| garshasp | a hard drive install should be possible this guide purports to show how to do that | 07:57 |
| eg0x | yeah, its possible, but i`m not familiar with this way of installing. perhaps anybody here is and is able to guide you a little better | 07:58 |
| gordonjcp | garshasp: what exactly are you trying to do? | 07:58 |
| Beldar | garshasp, You have a install or recovery medium for windows, in case needed? | 07:59 |
| garshasp | no dont think so | 08:00 |
| garshasp | this is an older dell | 08:00 |
| garshasp | i just want to know where in the config file this code is supposed to go | 08:00 |
| Beldar | garshasp, Make a recoverfy stick or cd, you are going to overwrite the mbr. | 08:00 |
| imran_ | need your help on ie 7 installation ? | 08:00 |
| garshasp | i dont have either | 08:00 |
| garshasp | i havent booted this mbr overwrite asking for advice on where to edit the config file | 08:01 |
| Beldar | garshasp, Pity, if you screw up and can't boot ubuntu you will have a nice door stopper. | 08:01 |
| Ben64 | garshasp: you really should spring for a blank cd or something | 08:02 |
| gordonjcp | Beldar: I don't see why it wouldn't boot Ubuntu | 08:02 |
| imran_ | how to install adobe flash plugin in ie 7 ubuntu? | 08:02 |
| garshasp | um | 08:02 |
| gordonjcp | garshasp: will it boot and run off the USB stick? | 08:02 |
| garshasp | there is no stick | 08:02 |
| garshasp | i have 0 sticks | 08:02 |
| Ben64 | gordonjcp: because its overwriting windows' mbr without having a backup option | 08:02 |
| aeon-ltd | imran_: ie 7? | 08:02 |
| gordonjcp | Ben64: <shrug> | 08:02 |
| gordonjcp | that's normal | 08:02 |
| reisio | imran_: what for? :p | 08:02 |
| Ben64 | gordonjcp: it really isn't | 08:03 |
| garshasp | evidently this guy did it | 08:03 |
| Beldar | gordonjcp, I did not say it would happen, but how many times a day do we help people with screwed up installs, and not having a way to fix the windows boot is irresponsible. | 08:03 |
| Ben64 | gordonjcp: keep in mind this is before the installer even runs | 08:03 |
| gordonjcp | Ben64: hm, that sounds a bit weird | 08:03 |
| gordonjcp | Ben64: doesn't sound like the normal Ubuntu installer | 08:03 |
| Ben64 | then you should read the scrollback before saying something is fine : / | 08:03 |
| imran_ | there is a windows support account software known as pact which run in only ie7 ? | 08:04 |
| Ben64 | imran_: uh, we don't really support IE here | 08:04 |
| imran_ | so i have installed ie7 on ubuntu , but it is asking for adobe flash plugin to view the charts and other functions of pact software | 08:04 |
| imran_ | iam using ie7 on ubuntu? | 08:05 |
| gordonjcp | garshasp: how are you installing Ubuntu then? | 08:05 |
| imran_ | thats y need answer from you please? | 08:05 |
| garshasp | gordonjcp using netbootin | 08:05 |
| gordonjcp | imran_: IE is not supported here | 08:05 |
| gordonjcp | garshasp: okay, from what? You said you're not using a USB stick | 08:05 |
| Romance | imran_: #winehq | 08:05 |
| Ben64 | imran_: through wine. at best you should be asking in #winehq | 08:05 |
| reisio | imran_: pretty unlikely, try telling the site you're using IE7 with http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/ | 08:05 |
| garshasp | gordonjcp hard drive install c | 08:06 |
| gordonjcp | garshasp: okay, that's not going to work | 08:06 |
| b14 | Imran : juet use firefox or gchrome then | 08:06 |
| Beldar | gordonjcp, here is there install method, no cd's or usb for either OS. http://logytips.blogspot.com/2013/10/how-to-install-linux-ubuntu-1204-lts.html | 08:06 |
| gordonjcp | Beldar: yeah | 08:06 |
| gordonjcp | that's not going to work | 08:06 |
| Beldar | ;) | 08:06 |
| gordonjcp | garshasp: get a USB stick and install it normally | 08:07 |
| garshasp | http://sourceforge.net/projects/grub2win/ | 08:07 |
| Ben64 | its definitely possible, but too dangerous for me to recommend | 08:07 |
| garshasp | he uses this | 08:07 |
| * gordonjcp -> work | 08:07 | |
| Ben64 | one misstep = no os | 08:07 |
| mikodo | I use an USB HD for backups. Should the partitions on it be owned by root or my user? | 08:07 |
| Ben64 | mikodo: whichever you'd like | 08:07 |
| mikodo | Ben64 Thanks | 08:07 |
| garshasp | it says the grub boots off of windows | 08:09 |
| Beldar | garshasp, You are not gonna find anyone here suggeting you do this without at the least having a recovery disc for windows, to reload the bootloader=mbr if needed, and most will not support you without installing with a disc or usb. | 08:10 |
| sooley | anyone here installed linux on chromebook | 08:10 |
| garshasp | Beldar lets be hypothetical about this | 08:11 |
| Beldar | garshasp, Lets be factual. | 08:11 |
| garshasp | if i were to hypothetically use grub2win and edit the config file as suggested, where would i put it? | 08:11 |
| Ben64 | hypothetically, find a friend with a blank cd | 08:11 |
| Beldar | garshasp, Honestly in the end we don;t want to help you clean up the possible mess you will make, and you should not set up your self to possibly need that, be responsible | 08:13 |

| ikonia | shams: you asked about this yesterday and had it explained to you your first steps | 08:19 |
| shams | yes you did thanks, still looking for help. you asked me to make sure my card is CUDA compaitable , and it is. i have installed CUDA blender and the right nvidia driver. but still my Cycle Rendering on GPU is not working. | 08:20 |
| ikonia | shams: ok - so the next question is 1.) where did you get the nvidia drivers you are using from 2.) where did you get the blender package you are using from, 3.) what is the blender package full package name | 08:23 |
| Hecter | hi, anyone around? | 08:25 |

| Korejora | ok so ubuntu froze and died on me and now when I start the computer it doesn't boot. it just seems to have a grub commandline. or something. (you can tell I are expert by my very technical report.) what do I do ? | 08:36 |
| Beldar | Korejora, when you start the computer do you see grub> | 08:39 |
| Korejora | @beldar; yes | 08:42 |
| Beldar | Korejora, This is a partitioned install, not a wubi I assume, wubi is installed from windows. | 08:43 |
| Beldar | Korejora, if you have ubuntu in a partition try this tool, and save the bootinfo summary generated. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 08:44 |
| Korejora | @Beldar. it is a partitioned install alongside windows. but it's not installed from windows. i installed windows, then installed ubuntu on a separate partition, and had it install grub on that disk. | 08:44 |
| Beldar | Korejora, Bootrepair may fix it, but a crash to a grub> prompt is rather odd is all it might just need a fsck. | 08:45 |
| Korejora | @Beldar, ok so, if i understand these instructions correctly, i should get ubuntu on a USB stick (the computer doesn't have a CDdrive) and run ubuntu off that and install & run boot-repair inside that live ubuntu instance and run it ? | 08:49 |
| rahuldroy | Hi Everyone, I am having a lot of issues with the wifi. It detects correctly but it doesn't connect to my home wifi. when I ran dmesg command, it says deauthenticating from * by local choice (reason=3) | 08:49 |
| Korejora | err, redundant. install & run boot repair inside that live ubuntu instnace? | 08:50 |
| Beldar | Korejora, You got it, the app will run from the live usb, if this does not work a fsck the linux version of a chkdsk abstractly can be run from that usb if needed. | 08:51 |

| itsme_ | Hello everyone, When I clicked on my Ubuntu power button on the top-right corner, a user account by the name of "J Random User" appeared on the list of users . I restarted my computer and now the user account has disappeared. Should I be worried that my computer has been compromised by someone/something, or is there a logical explanation for this? | 09:27 |

| Zorky | I have a problem regarding pulsaudio. First off. I dont have any sound. the pulseaudio aparently isent running as it should. whenever i do sudo pulseaudio —check nothing shows up. sudo pulseaudio —start just tells me the program is not meant to run in admin mode. Any help would be apriciated. | 09:32 |
| lotuspsychje | !sound | Zorky | 09:32 |
| ubottu | Zorky: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 09:32 |

| Zorky | I forgot to mention. I need a terminal fix for this. a GUI is of no help | 09:33 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: how did you add this user in the first place? | 09:33 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, whay would you run gnome-shell in a rooted terminal? | 09:33 |
| fosser_josh1 | as i am getting old gnome interface | 09:34 |
| fosser_josh1 | previously it was gnome-shell | 09:34 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: I never added it, that's the issue. It randomly appears and disappears | 09:34 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, That makes no sense. | 09:34 |

| Beldar | fosser_josh1, The gnome shell is the gnome 3 desktop, you would choose it at the login gui. | 09:35 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: do you use ssh? | 09:36 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: No, I don't | 09:36 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: i tried on login but i get nothing after login. no gnome-shell features works. | 09:37 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: I don't use any of those remote clients (ex:- teamviewer) either | 09:37 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, What did you install to have the gnome shell, and what did you choose at the login? | 09:37 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: well like buu says last thread says dev code... | 09:38 |
| fosser_josh1 | on pressing windows button i dont get any shell. | 09:38 |
| fosser_josh1 | i think i install gnome3 | 09:38 |
| fosser_josh1 | i dont remember what all the things i did. | 09:38 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: if you wanna se sure of security try snort and rkhunter | 09:38 |
| fosser_josh1 | but is was working previously and not its not working | 09:38 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: how about useraccount icon, user shows up in list? | 09:39 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, Please use nicks, you can tab complete them, in the terminal you would have run sudo apt-get install gnome-shell | 09:40 |
| excognac | hi all. Can anybody recommend a good article about governmental spyware on linux? or I can assume I'm in safety. | 09:40 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: Nope , it just appears in the "Ubuntu power button on the top-right corner" after I login onto my current account | 09:40 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: yes i install gnome-shell | 09:40 |
| buu | excognac: The spyware lives in the network around the linux system. | 09:40 |
| fosser_josh1 | and even gnome3 | 09:40 |
| buu | excognac: So don't worry, it watches you no matter what you do. | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: what version of ubuntu are you on? | 09:41 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: 13.10 | 09:41 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, If you were running ubuntu gnome 3 was already installed. Were you using the fallback desktop or the shell? | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: i think you should file a bug for this, or talk to #ubuntu-dev guys about it | 09:41 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, Did you install a ppa for the gnome shell? | 09:42 |
| excognac | buu: ok fine. just my gf wanted to use my laptop, she works in a ministry, she opened her work email on one of my machines as a non-sudoer. | 09:42 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: let me check | 09:42 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: Sure, I'll do that. I'll keep an eye on this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2186105 . Just in case someone comes up with a solution | 09:43 |
| ANub | Hey! | 09:43 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: no ppa | 09:43 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: just apt-get install gnome-shell | 09:44 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, You looked where to confirm that? | 09:44 |
| ANub | I was under the impression that MBR has got to be at the very initial sectors of the disk.....Was I wrong...? | 09:44 |
| itsme_ | Thank you lotuspsychje and buu | 09:44 |
| fosser_josh1 | software source | 09:44 |
| Beldar | ANub, The mbr is the first 512mb of a HD | 09:45 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: in software and update where we add ppa | 09:45 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: holdon, dont leave yet ok | 09:45 |
| itsme_ | ok | 09:45 |
| itsme_ | I'm here | 09:45 |
| ANub | <Beldar> Please see the second post of http://mandrivausers.org/index.php?/topic/6256-tricks-for-partimage-and-mbr/ | 09:46 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: I'm still here | 09:46 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, do you see this there gnome3-team/gnome3 | 09:46 |
| Beldar | ANub, Posted 06 July 2003 | 09:47 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: found another here but not yet solution for it: http://ubuntuaddict.com/j-random-user-account-appeared-on-list-of-users.html | 09:47 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: there is external repository | 09:47 |
| Silex | hello, what is the difference between "aptitude install foo" and "apt-get install foo"? does the former install more stuffs? it seems that way here | 09:47 |
| Silex | (e.g maybe it installs "recommends")? | 09:47 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: all i am using is ubuntu repository | 09:47 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, The ppa shell is problematic, I have the feeling you have installed it, or have done something else, not sure what to be honest, you said you installed gnome 3 when it is there already. | 09:48 |
| ANub | <Beldar> Can you elaborate this >>>"you can restore a mbr using any image file and then restore an image to a partition with an image file that may not have been the source for the mbr" ....? | 09:48 |
| Beldar | ANub, This is ubuntu support, how is this related to that, and if it is what is your end goal. | 09:49 |
| lotuspsychje | !apt | Silex | 09:49 |
| ubottu | Silex: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) | 09:49 |
| Beldar | restoring the mbr with an image is not reallynused anymore ANub | 09:49 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje : The only reason I was worried about this issue is because I thought "J Random User Account" maybe related to "J. Random Hacker" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Random_Hacker) | 09:50 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: does 13.04 come with gnome3 or gnome-shell? | 09:50 |
| ANub | <Beldar> Ok......I was checking partimage utility and came across that thread.....seemed i could clear my doubts here...? | 09:50 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: or come with unity | 09:50 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: also found that thread, but i dont think its related... | 09:50 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, run this command and pastebin all the info. grep -vr "^#" /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/} | 09:51 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: join #ubuntu-devel and ask there, they might know what it is... | 09:51 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, Ubuntu has gnome 3 underlying unity, the shell has to be installed. | 09:51 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: sure | 09:52 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: http://pastebin.com/ABQsDUtL here we go | 09:52 |
| Beldar | ANub, an image to load the mbr is rather old school not really used anymore. | 09:52 |
| ANub | <Beldar> So.... it means that MBR has always got to be in the 1st 512 bytes of the physical disk..? | 09:53 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, running a rooted terminal is not a good idea ever. | 09:53 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: here is complete sources.list http://pastebin.com/YTwRgyya | 09:53 |
| Silex | lotuspsychje: mmm, thanks but it's not really helping. It just says that it "installs packages" | 09:53 |
| Beldar | ANub, yes | 09:53 |
| Silex | not what the diffs are | 09:53 |
| ANub | <Beldar> Ok.....thnx | 09:53 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: yeah i was just installing something so i kept it open. | 09:54 |
| lotuspsychje | !aptitude | Silex | 09:54 |
| ubottu | Silex: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter multiarch problems on non-updated 12.04 installs, see http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. | 09:54 |
| Silex | haha! that' exactly the problem we have | 09:54 |
| Silex | thanks | 09:54 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, use sudo do not root the terminal. I see no ppa's I have to just wonder what you nhave installed as you seem a little confused is all as far as what is actually there. | 09:55 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, Do you have any working desktop? | 09:56 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: GNOME Shell 3.6.3.1 using apt-get install gnome-shell | 09:57 |
| === z_ is now known as Guest58856 | ||
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, Do you have any working desktop? | 09:57 |

| Beldar | fosser_josh1, Hmm, what is the default gnome desktop, unity, is there a panel on the left of the screen? | 09:58 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: no panel on left hand side. der is applications and places at top of the screen | 09:59 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, Can you take a screen shot of it and put it in imagebin | 09:59 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: can you please open /var/log and browse around in auth.log? | 10:00 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: see if there's anything unusual | 10:01 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: on it | 10:01 |

| Beldar | fosser_josh1, I believe that is the fallback desktop | 10:03 |
| fosser_josh1 | no its normal | 10:03 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, for the fallback yes | 10:03 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: okh how to get back to gnome-shell | 10:03 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: do you have uefi secureboot on? | 10:04 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, it should be gnome at the login, using the gear that is a dropdown. | 10:04 |
| fosser_josh1 | okh | 10:05 |
| fosser_josh1 | let me restart and try again | 10:05 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: I've 2 log files "auth.log" and "auth.log1" . "auth.log" has around 538 lines and "auth.log1" has 1813 lines. How do I check whether "uefi secureboot is on"? | 10:06 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: check if one of those lines show that Jrandom user | 10:06 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: enter bios of your machine, and try disable uefi, not sure this will help | 10:07 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: disable secure boot sorry | 10:07 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje: No trace of the word "Jrandom " , even the word "random" doesn't exist in those files | 10:08 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: check #ubuntu-devel :p | 10:09 |

| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: is i use ubuntu default i get this desktop http://imagebin.org/279029 | 10:12 |
| fosser_josh1 | and if i use gnome then i get previous desktop | 10:13 |
| lotuspsychje | g0d: you can ask password prompt a ubuntu login | 10:13 |
| g0d | lotuspsychje: you didn't understand my question. | 10:13 |
| varunendra | g0d, you are talking about a BIOS password | 10:13 |
| g0d | yes, varunendra. | 10:13 |
| ObrienDave | that's in your BIOS | 10:14 |
| ObrienDave | not the OS | 10:14 |
| vocx | If somebody asks "what is Unity?" What would you answer in a concise way? I'm not sure if Unity is a specific desktop environment made by Ubuntu or it's just the special tailoring of Gnome 3 done by Ubuntu. | 10:14 |
| DJones | g0d: Thats something you may be able to set as a bios password, I think there is (or used to be) a way setting a password on GRUB as well (but not sure if that can still be done) | 10:14 |
| varunendra | g0d, you can set it in the BIOS. Be aware that it is not very difficult to bypass though ;) (this is not an Ubuntu related question by the way) | 10:14 |

| Beldar | djangonoob, Did you set up a fsck? | 10:20 |
| djangonoob | Beldar, what do you mean with set up? | 10:21 |
| Rory | djangonoob: Can you boot to a single-user shell using Recovery option from the Grub boot menu? | 10:21 |
| Rory | djangonoob: If you can, run: mv /var/lib/alsa/asound.state /var/lib/alsa/asound.state.backup | 10:21 |
| Rory | djangonoob: and then reboot | 10:22 |

| djangonoob | ok | 10:23 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: anyway thanks i will try to figure out | 10:23 |
| Rory | streulma: Someone wrote a blog post here, which includes a few things including screen resolution http://blog.echarles.net/2013/10/01/Ubuntu-13.04-On-MacbookPro-Retina | 10:23 |
| Beldar | fosser_josh1, You also said you installed gnome 3. | 10:23 |
| ovrflw0x | Rory: there're not instructions for 13.10... | 10:23 |
| ovrflw0x | no* | 10:23 |
| itsme_ | lotuspsychje : varunendra: "Secure Boot" or UEFI feature was widely implemented in 2012 and its an Intel technology. My motherboard (Gigabyte) and processor is AMD and I haven't updated my Bios since 2008 | 10:23 |
| Rory | ovrflw0x: They're for 13.04, and they'll be the same if you have it installed. Scroll down to the section on screen resolution | 10:24 |
| lotuspsychje | itsme_: dont worry then, its not related to your issue | 10:24 |
| Rory | ovrflw0x: By which I mean, that script to change the resoltuion will also work on 13.10 if it works on 13.04 | 10:24 |
| ovrflw0x | Rory: what 'resolution?' i'm talking about bluetooth | 10:24 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: i am not quit sure about that. as i checked the version of gnome-shell so i thought that gnome3 is also installed but i just installeed gnome-shell. i dont know weather that installed gnome3 or not | 10:25 |
| varunendra | ovrflw0x, are you sure you have a bluetooth adapter in the system ? Any indications that it is functional? | 10:25 |
| Rory | ovrflw0x: Oh sorry I thought you were the retina macbook person | 10:25 |

| Beldar | fosser_josh1, I wonder if you just have a grphic driver problem boot to the unity desktop and see if its working. | 10:27 |
| fosser_josh1 | Beldar: ahhh might be graphic driver problem. | 10:27 |
| varunendra | ovrflw0x, please give us the pastebin link of the outputs of : "lsusb" and "usb-devices" | 10:28 |

| djangonoob | Rory, it is checking now (3.3%), but hdd led is not blinking... I will wait | 10:28 |
| vocx | lotuspsychje, jnhghy I don want to compare "which is better", merely trying to understand if Unity is a fork of Gnome 3, or the differences are more "on top", and behind it all, it's still good ol Linux. | 10:28 |
| Rory | vocx: It's Linux, it uses GTK (same as Gnome does) but it uses Unity instead of Gnome-Shell | 10:29 |
| djangonoob | Rory, should this be so slow? even with a ssd? | 10:29 |
| Rory | djangonoob: You should see output at least | 10:29 |
| djangonoob | 3.3% still | 10:29 |
| Rory | OK then just wait for it | 10:29 |
| Rory | Or ctrl-C to cancel | 10:29 |
| Rory | Since I only got you to do that because it's the quickest way to mount the root fs as read-write | 10:30 |
| djangonoob | should I try to mv alsa after ctrl-c ? | 10:30 |
| === jeff__ is now known as jeff_liu | ||

| djangonoob | ctrl-c just displays "^C" | 10:31 |
| vocx | Rory, I see. So it's just the top-level shell that it's a bit different, but the insides, the code is still C+GTK. | 10:31 |
| Rory | vocx: Not sure about C, large parts of the Ubuntu desktop tools are written in Python, but it uses the GTK toolkit. Why don't you ask in #ubuntu-offtopic you will get a better discussion there | 10:32 |

| alket | Hi, I am trying to save a file in nano editor, what i need is just to override a file but it says M-D Dos format etc. What does M mean is it a key on keyboard ? | 10:56 |
| Rory | alket: What does it say precisely? | 10:56 |
| alket | Rory:http://paste.ubuntu.com/6478398/ | 10:57 |
| AlanBell | alket: M is meta, or the ctrl key | 10:57 |
| AlanBell | however you don't need to press that | 10:57 |
| AlanBell | alket: just hit return | 10:57 |
| Rory | AlanBell: To save in Nano just to Ctrl-O, enter a filename then press Enter | 10:57 |
| AlanBell | it is giving you the opportunity to change the filename | 10:58 |
| Rory | AlanBell: To quit nano do Ctrl-X - if you have unsaved changes it will ask for a filename | 10:58 |
| alket | AlanBell , Rory thank you very much | 10:58 |
| emillos91 | Hello is there a kind person who want to help me setting up openvpn on my ubuntu 13.10 server ? | 10:58 |
| Wiz_KeeD | My fellow ubuntu brethren, it seems that no matter how much I wish to avoid the Nvidia Optimus technology crap..90% of the notebooks have it.Is using bumblebee the only options for this to work and such a big issue in linux? | 11:00 |
| kemon | emillos91: Why openvpn? Tryed pptpd? | 11:01 |
| kemon | emillos91: Why PPTPD you can use windows vpn to connect. No extra client | 11:02 |
| kemon | with* | 11:02 |
| emillos91 | Im confused now. i want to use openvpn for samba share to work from remote computer. | 11:02 |
| kemon | PPTPD is also VPN. With openvpn you need to set up bridge network etc I think | 11:03 |

| Laban | The limited experience I have with PPTP is that it NAT's everything and routing is pain. But it might just be an old/missconfigured setup. | 11:05 |

| stevenm | Rory, it's usb - lsusb shows 1bbb:0195 as the vendor/product id's | 11:20 |
| varunendra | umtsblabla, you said "update problem", but your link shows a post related to "mounting problem" | 11:20 |
| varunendra | stevenm, is the modem not recognized? Which version of Ubuntu you are using? | 11:22 |
| stevenm | varunendra, 12.04 - but i'm not interested in getting it working on this pc - just interested on if it *can* be supportable on linux in general | 11:22 |
| stevenm | i.e. where you'd go to research that | 11:22 |
| Rory | stevenm: I just google it, usually | 11:22 |
| stevenm | Rory, hasn't helped really | 11:22 |
| quangminh | hello world | 11:24 |
| quangminh | first time join in irc chat | 11:24 |
| varunendra | stevenm, I don't know about a website that lists it, although I'm sure there is at least one. But you can look into /usr/share/usb_modeswitch/configPack.tar.gz file to see if the VID:PID file exists in it. If not, it is not 'natively' supported, but it can be made to work (generally) | 11:24 |
| quangminh | anybody hear me ? | 11:24 |
| berga | not me | 11:24 |
| cfhowlett | quangminh, hear? no. see? yes. | 11:24 |
| berga | jk | 11:24 |
| varunendra | quangminh, yes we can 'see' you :D | 11:25 |
| stevenm | varunendra, oh i already know it's 1bbb:f000 unswitched and usb_modeswitch turns it into 1bbb:0195 - but the question isn't about the switcher, it's about if it has drivers or not | 11:25 |
| stevenm | that 1bbb:f000 is used by many unswitched mode dongles - not specifcally this one... but the 1bbb:0195 is unique to this 4g dongle make/model | 11:25 |
| emillos91 | :kemon :) haha im trying right now. thanks for help | 11:26 |
| shams | I am struggling for a week now, trying my blender to work with CUDA GPU Cyclea Rendering, did so many fresh installation, still no luck. is someone out there who can help please. | 11:26 |
| varunendra | stevenm, these modems don't need too many different drivers. Almost all of them work with the native "option" driver. If that doesn't support it, you can either force bind it or report at (forgot the site) to request that ID be added in next updates. | 11:27 |
| cfhowlett | shams, best to ask the blender people for support. that new rendering engine is their baby and their problem | 11:27 |
| kemon | emillos91: Np :) It is an easy setup :) | 11:27 |
| shams | ok, thanks | 11:27 |
| stevenm | varunendra, actually i think this one shows up as a wired ethernet adapter called usb0 | 11:28 |
| cfhowlett | shams, also see #ubuntustudio | 11:28 |
| shams | thanks, i am new to ubuntu as well as on irc chat hahaha, thank you i will check. | 11:29 |
| emillos91 | :kemon yes i think so :) | 11:29 |
| varunendra | stevenm, Oh, I don't have much experience with these then. Only seen 2-3 times so far (probably sierra wireless devices), not sure how they are handled. | 11:30 |
| stevenm | varunendra, well it seems to have stuck me on a 192.168.1.0/24 and on .1 is a web configuration for the dongle itself - neat :) | 11:30 |

| Rory | djangonoob: I'd recommend starting with "apt-get clean" to remove cached package downloads | 11:41 |
| Rory | djangonoob: Once you can boot, use the included Disk Usage Analyser to drill down and see what of your personal files are taking up the most space | 11:41 |

| === administrator is now known as Guest54977 | ||
| cfhowlett | suyash1629, this isn't the android channel? | 11:48 |
| theadmin | suyash1629: You need to make the files executable: sudo chown -R xist:xist /home/xist/android && chmod -R +x /home/xist/android | 11:48 |
| AlanBell | suyash1629: perhaps you need an android support channel? | 11:48 |

| theadmin | AlanBell: Not a big deal. Stuff that needs to be executable will be, stuff that doesn't won't really care (making a jpg executable won't hurt anyone, would it?) | 11:50 |
| djangonoob | is this a normal that installing ncdu, or reading packet list takes about 30 sec for 1% in restoring mode? | 11:51 |
| djangonoob | or is this a full disk issue? | 11:51 |

| Silex | Ben64: I can't compile for 64 bits, I need to build in 32 bits but I need the box to be 64 bits | 12:37 |
| emillos91 | kemon: im using windows desktop and my server is ubuntu 13.10 server | 12:37 |
| Silex | (yes, it sucks) | 12:37 |
| Ben64 | Silex: that doesn't make any sense | 12:37 |
| Ben64 | if you need to compile 32 bit, then the computer can be as well | 12:37 |
| kemon | emillos91: Adn your ssh client? | 12:37 |
| emillos91 | kemon: im using putty from windows | 12:37 |
| Silex | Ben64: the TL;DR bottom line is: we need 64 bit os to get around the 16 TB filesystem limitation, but our software would take months to port to 64 bits | 12:38 |
| Silex | compiling with -m32 is the simplest way | 12:38 |
| Silex | if you have suggestion they are welcome, but I think we are stuck with find a -m32 way | 12:39 |

| Ben64 | Silex: you'll have to figure out a solution | 12:40 |
| Ben64 | kemon: why are you doing all that? | 12:40 |
| Silex | Ben64: so, can you answer my question about the ia32-libs removal? | 12:40 |
| kemon | Ben64: To tunnel trafic from Denmark to France, so he can access the router :) | 12:41 |
| Ben64 | Silex: its not quite all the way gone yet in 12.04 | 12:41 |
| emillos91 | kemon: why should i make this to 127.0.0.1:1234? this is the localhost | 12:41 |
| Ben64 | kemon: is it residential? | 12:41 |
| Ben64 | emillos91: this "server" you have in france, describe it | 12:42 |
| kemon | emillos91: because putty will tunnel trafic from 127.0.0.1:1234 to your ubuntu server, then to your router in france :P | 12:42 |
| Silex | Ben64: alright, thanks | 12:43 |

| kemon | emillos91: just scan for open ports on the server | 12:57 |
| emillos91 | kemon: yes i did :) | 12:57 |
| Ben64 | kristal: what about that 14% | 12:57 |
| Ben64 | kristal: and you can order iotop by write or read using the arrow keys | 12:58 |

| davividal | how can I execute another command (say stat) as another group? | 13:02 |
| davividal | I don't care about the user, just the group | 13:02 |
| theadmin | davividal: You can't really do that, groups don't run commands | 13:02 |
| theadmin | davividal: You need to run it as any user that's in that group | 13:03 |
| ActionPa1snip | deavidsedice: su name -c 'commands here' | 13:03 |
| ActionPa1snip | deavidsedice: users run commands, not groups | 13:04 |
| davividal | theadmin: yeah. But I have nginx and php-fpm running as www-data:developers, but www-data doesn't belong to developers group. | 13:05 |
| djangonoob | after restart, auto login is not working and I have to do startx myself. I can see desktop icons/files but nothing else. also ctrl-alt-f1 is not working. | 13:05 |
| djangonoob | dmesg shows: init udev-fallback-graphics/plymouth-splash/lightdm/failsafe-x main process terminated with status 1 | 13:05 |
| davividal | I need to make sure that the developers perms I've set are working | 13:05 |
| theadmin | davividal: Then run it as a user who is in the "developers" group. | 13:05 |
| davividal | theadmin: and what's the point in set only the group of the daemon? | 13:06 |
| djangonoob | is this a graphics driver issue? | 13:06 |
| davividal | djangonoob: anything else into ~/.xsession-errors ? | 13:07 |
| djangonoob | davividal, puh... there is a lot. file not found. no space left error again.... I will try something | 13:11 |
| Ben64 | djangonoob: startx is not the correct way to start a gui in ubuntu | 13:11 |
| djangonoob | oh, and what is the correct way? | 13:12 |
| Ben64 | sudo service lightdm start | 13:12 |
| davividal | djangonoob: .xsession-errors is a good place to start :) | 13:13 |
| djangonoob | davividal, can I delete the file and reboot to only see actual errors? | 13:14 |
| Ben64 | yes | 13:14 |

| djangonoob | with sudo service lightdm start it looks normal again, but why do I have to start it on my own? | 13:19 |
| davividal | Wiz_KeeD: http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/09/nvidia-seeks-peace-with-linux-pledges-help-on-open-source-driver/ | 13:19 |
| davividal | djangonoob: maybe you were facing low disk space issues and had to manually start X. Probably after a reboot it should work fine. | 13:20 |
| davividal | djangonoob: if after a reboot you are still facing problems, pastebin your .xsession-errors and /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 13:21 |
| davividal | djangonoob: after a second thought: just the /var/log/Xorg.0.log should do. ~/.xsession-errors won't prevent lightdm from start. | 13:22 |

| BluesKaj | Calle. try boot-repair , it works for me and I have a similar setup to yours | 14:01 |
| Aktron | BluesKaj: I tried all of them, no success. I have no information what username and password should I use. According to the tech support none, but the form (network settings) still requires it | 14:02 |

| philinux | Calle;~ you could use easybcd on w7 | 14:05 |

| varunendra | Aktron, if it is not an emergency need, I suggest you post a thread at Ubuntu Forums (under Networking section) and wait for answers (or PM me, my user ID is same there). You should also post the result of wireless_script there for a detailed info of your setup : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12350385 | 14:08 |

| varunendra | Nodgic, removing the Ubuntu partition is as easy as formatting the partition, but restoring the boot loader may require some work if using MBR, not GPT. | 14:14 |
| BluesKaj | Calle. boot repair should work on any media you choose | 14:14 |
| Nodgic | Yeah I dont know much about that | 14:14 |
| Nodgic | Ill try the live version first | 14:15 |

| MonkeyDust | xubuntu449 because it too easy to ruin you system as root | 14:54 |
| Rory | xubuntu449: It isn't better to use "sudo su" it's better to use "sudo -i" if you need a root shell. | 14:54 |
| MonkeyDust | xubuntu449 but it is even better (safer) to not be root at all | 14:54 |
| MonkeyDust | use sudo | 14:55 |
| xubuntu449 | but can't I ruin just as many things with sudo command? What root can do that sudo can't ? | 14:55 |
| * gassho uses sudo | 14:55 | |
| theadmin | xubuntu449: Nothing, except... You don't accidently stay logged in as root because you forgot to "exit". And, if many people need admin privelegs, they don't get to know the root password. | 14:55 |

| amcsi_work | hi, is there a command to reset security on Ubuntu? To remove any keys from /root/.ssh/authorized_keys, remove all users from the admin/sudo group, chown all files that should be root's, but isn't, back to root etc.? | 14:58 |
| theadmin | xubuntu449: Also, sudo caches the password for 15 minutes or until you close the terminal, whichever comes first, so that you can run multiple root commands without entering the password each time, it's more of a convenience really | 14:58 |
| theadmin | amcsi_work: No. | 14:59 |
| amcsi_work | so that when I take ownership of an Ubuntu server, the old admin wouldn't be able to access the server in any harmful way | 14:59 |
| amcsi_work | what do you recommend I do? | 14:59 |
| theadmin | amcsi_work: If you want to be completely safe, you'd probably want a reinstall of the system from scratch, I suppose. | 15:00 |
| amcsi_work | ah, that's too bad | 15:00 |
| dreamer | hmm, I'll try here then: anybody experience with x2go? | 15:02 |

| dwirc | I've put polkit rules in place both under /var/lib and /etc, however, normal users are still able to reboot the system via the "reboot" option in the upper right corner. | 15:13 |
| dwirc | All of the documents I've seen reference polkit as the way to prevent this, yet none of them seem to work for Ubuntu 13.10 | 15:13 |

| dreamer | I just use mpd | 15:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Hylian: if you want a consile based audio player use mplayer or vlc-nox | 15:27 |
| dreamer | it's unreconcilable | 15:28 |
| hylian | ActionParsnip: is that because moc is somehow no longer used or out of date or something? I've been using moc for years without issue, and now it has this error..?? | 15:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Hylian : what is the output of: lsb_release -sc | 15:29 |
| ActionParsnip | !info moc | 15:29 |
| ubottu | moc (source: moc): ncurses based console audio player. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:2.5.0~beta1+svn20130411-1 (saucy), package size 250 kB, installed size 710 kB | 15:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Hylian : it's in Saucy so is used | 15:29 |
| hylian | ActionParsnip: precise. (I didn't run that command as su, should I have? | 15:29 |
| dreamer | hylian: no | 15:30 |
| vanishing | hylian: moc works here :O | 15:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Hylian : no, users have read access which is enough | 15:30 |
| dreamer | ActionParsnip: suggesting mplayer or vlc as replacements for moc is kind of .. ahum .. weird (trying to be nice here ..) | 15:30 |
| hylian | I am wondering if it has anythign to do with my installing ffmpeg.. | 15:30 |
| Turtleee | I've got a problem with SMPlayer... When I add a lot of mp3... I can't listen them in "continue mode"... When the first song ends.. It stops. | 15:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer: how so? | 15:30 |
| dreamer | ActionParsnip: because they in no way replace its funcitonality | 15:31 |
| vanishing | hylian: try to move .moc in your home | 15:31 |
| vanishing | see if that helps | 15:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer: can moc stream over lan etc too? | 15:31 |
| dreamer | might as well suggest mpg123 | 15:31 |
| hylian | vanishing: i will try that, thanks | 15:31 |
| dreamer | ActionParsnip: does mplayer have an ncurses interface? | 15:31 |
| vanishing | ActionParsnip: erm...playing music is good enough for me.... | 15:32 |
| vanishing | if i want to stream over lan I can us mpd | 15:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : I guess it can if you find it. Mplayer is very modular | 15:32 |
| Ari-Yang | mplayer is old and bleck | 15:32 |
| vanishing | Ari-Yang: mplayer2 :) | 15:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Mplayer is the daddy | 15:32 |
| hylian | vanishing: that solved the issue, why did that solve the issue?? | 15:32 |
| theadmin | Old? It's being developed and improved constantly | 15:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : can moc stream over lan? | 15:32 |
| zykotick9 | hylian: as a former moc user, i'd highly suggest mpd+ncmpcpp as a possible replacemnt... | 15:32 |
| dreamer | mplayer is awesome, but it doesn't make any sence to suggest it as a replacement for moc | 15:32 |
| zykotick9 | ActionParsnip: not really, moc isn't for streaming | 15:32 |
| dreamer | ActionParsnip: like I said before: I never use moc | 15:32 |
| hylian | mplayer is great, but it doesn't have the user interface like moc for choosing audio. | 15:33 |
| dreamer | what do you even mean with 'stream over lan'? as output? or open a webstream? | 15:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : so what does moc have over mplayer except an ncurses ui? | 15:33 |
| dreamer | exactly | 15:33 |
| Ari-Yang | [10:32:23] <vanishing> Ari-Yang: mplayer2 :) ---> mplayer2 is dead | 15:34 |
| hylian | moc works now, thanks to vanishing... moving the .moc folder (perhaps even deleting it?) in /home/user/ solved my issue. | 15:34 |
| Ari-Yang | >old players | 15:34 |
| dreamer | it has a UI that hylian likes and wants. and moc should just work | 15:34 |
| dreamer | but, mpd is better :P | 15:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer: stream over lan as in setup a syream then connect to it using a remote system to view | 15:34 |
| dreamer | he never even suggested that he wants that | 15:34 |
| Ari-Yang | I highlight suggest mpv if one wants to use a player that's like mplayer/mplayer2 | 15:34 |
| dreamer | so your suggestion is again quite moot | 15:34 |
| hylian | dreamer: moc works now. I've never heard of mpd... sounds like there are more options than I have been aware of. | 15:34 |
| Ari-Yang | here's mpv: http://mpv.io/ | 15:35 |
| dreamer | hylian: good for you :) | 15:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : but you said advising mplayer was bad. Im not seeing any advantage yet as you haven't said anything to say why its a bad idea | 15:35 |
| dreamer | Ari-Yang: don't see it in apt | 15:35 |
| Ari-Yang | dreamer: lol, it won't be for a while I doubt | 15:35 |
| dreamer | Ari-Yang: mplayer doesn't replace moc in any way. so yes, the suggestion didn't make any sense. might as well have said mpg123 | 15:35 |
| Ari-Yang | you'll have to install it from git on ubuntu | 15:35 |
| Ari-Yang | huh | 15:35 |
| dreamer | Ari-Yang: it's a videoplayer .. | 15:35 |
| hylian | Thanks all, i'm going to download the other options too, maybe I will prefer somehting else.. | 15:36 |
| Ari-Yang | mplayer replacing moc? I've never said such a thing | 15:36 |
| dreamer | Ari-Yang: the conversation was about commandline audio-players | 15:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : so why defend moc? | 15:36 |
| Ari-Yang | I'm just I recommend mpv over any mplayer in general | 15:36 |
| dreamer | Ari-Yang: ActionParsnip did. | 15:36 |
| Ari-Yang | oh | 15:36 |
| dreamer | sorry, tab-fail | 15:36 |
| dreamer | ActionParsnip: er, because that's what hylian wanted to get to work. you are suggestion $random_audio_player_without_sought_features | 15:36 |
| dreamer | "but mplayer can stream" << irrelevant | 15:37 |
| Ari-Yang | anyway, if you want mpv, you'll have to get it from git, there are instructions for compiling it on ubuntu. | 15:37 |
| Ari-Yang | and mpv can stream :b | 15:37 |
| * dreamer has no reason to try mpv | 15:37 | |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : yes but your response implied moc was better. .. | 15:37 |
| dreamer | ActionParsnip: my response implied that your | 15:37 |
| dreamer | woops | 15:37 |
| Ari-Yang | lets just say that mpv is a very sane mplayer, with active devs | 15:37 |
| dreamer | that moc is what the user wants | 15:37 |
| hylian | dreamer has a point. mplayer rocks, I listen to shoutcast on it. MOC has a ui that lets you see and choose what file to play with the arrow keys and the enter/return button. | 15:37 |
| dreamer | not $random_audio_player_without_sought_features | 15:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : with features galore. So I asked why it was better | 15:38 |
| dreamer | it's "better" because it's what the user wants | 15:38 |
| molgrum | when i open "programs and updates" and click on additional drivers i get this error: http://pastebin.com/F2TuBWi2 | 15:38 |
| vanishing | Ari-Yang: wait...mplayer2 is dead? | 15:38 |
| molgrum | but i see no adict... | 15:38 |
| Turtleee | Ehm... I repeat.. Smplayer problem... It only plays 1 song. Then It stops playing the next songs in the list. | 15:38 |
| helmut_ | hi | 15:38 |
| dreamer | anyway, proof that this channel is useless | 15:38 |
| Ari-Yang | vanishing: yes, again. If you want to use mplayer/mplayer2, I highly suggest mpv fork. | 15:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreamer : why? Because you disagree with one user? Is that how you think? Wow | 15:39 |
| Ari-Yang | vanishing: not sure if you saw the link, http://mpv.io/ | 15:39 |
| vanishing | Ari-Yang: aww man..i liked mplayer2 | 15:39 |

| newbie|2 | wafflejock: I have to agree with you, even though I feel more secure than if I had Windows | 16:45 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: ok, so what is 'start' ? | 16:45 |
| wafflejock | newbie|2: yeah I mean I think Linux tends to make you more security minded which helps a lot... and not running as admin all the time... but it's still good to be cautious | 16:45 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: a server? a system on your LAN? | 16:45 |
| dondopa | Neat it works | 16:46 |
| wafflejock | newbie|2: being a small percentage of the overall desktop market as well it's not a very juicy target for hackers | 16:46 |
| dondopa | Thunderbird is a good IRC client | 16:46 |
| wafflejock | newbie|2: also lots of fragmentation so harder to target any one system and get a big payout machines wise... I'm not a hacker but i like to think like one :) | 16:46 |
| MonkeyDust | dondopa thunderbird is a mail client, not a irc client | 16:47 |
| dondopa | It can act as one though | 16:47 |
| dondopa | has multiple purposes | 16:47 |
| dondopa | Iamusing it right now | 16:47 |
| keep1 | ActionParsnip: it is a system on a LAN. I can ping the other machines on the LAN but when I ping start It doesn't give me an IP, just and error of "unknown host start" | 16:47 |

| DRiceTech | Anyone want to help me out with a rebooting issue in 13.10? | 16:49 |
| wafflejock | !details | DRiceTech | 16:50 |
| ubottu | DRiceTech: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 16:50 |
| usr13 | wafflejock newbie|2 Once you learn more about Linux, you'll know where and why it is more secure, and how to keep it that way. There are things you can do that will make it insecure, and of course, there are things you can do to make it more secure. No system is impregnable, but by default Linux is way ahead in the security department when you compare it to some other OS's (which will remain unmamed). | 16:50 |
| DRiceTech | okay, just making sure people were here haha - here we go | 16:50 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: can you ping their IP addresses? | 16:50 |
| wafflejock | usr13: absolutely but there are mounds of reasons it is more secure and there are still mounds of ways you can mess it up | 16:51 |
| DRiceTech | I am using Ubuntu Server 13.10, whenever I try any combination of methods to reboot the server, the machine effortlessly shuts down every time - never a reboot. | 16:51 |
| keep1 | I'm sorry I just understood what you were saying. When i use the host name of the remote computer is cannot resolve it. However I can ping using the IPs | 16:51 |
| MonkeyDust | DRiceTech sudo init 6 | 16:51 |
| usr13 | wafflejock: Ubuntu, by default, is pretty much as secure as it needs to be. | 16:51 |
| ActionParsnip | DRiceTech: tried: sudo reboot | 16:51 |
| newbie|2 | usr13: Sorry, I don't mean to name Voldemor ... | 16:52 |
| newbie|2 | Oooppssss | 16:52 |
| DRiceTech | I have tried all of these: sudo reboot, sudo reboot now, sudo shutdown -r, sudo shutdown -r now, sudo init 6 | 16:52 |
| DRiceTech | all with the same outcome | 16:52 |
| r3d0c3d | I have been redirected to this channel from #networking. | 16:52 |
| r3d0c3d | out of the vast collection of resources that google just dumped for me, I am not able to select which would be a good one for learning iptables from the very basics. | 16:53 |
| wafflejock | usr13: I disagree if you use the password password it's not that secure | 16:53 |
| usr13 | newbie|2: I'm not being critical of anyone, just sharing info. | 16:53 |
| wafflejock | usr13: I mean I agree it is much more secure than many popular OSes, however users can screw themselves with ignorance | 16:54 |
| wafflejock | usr13: and if you plan to use this for a webserver or the like you may want to know more about extra precautions you can take | 16:54 |

| Sh1G3rU | the level of security of a system is as low as its weakest chain : its user | 16:55 |
| wafflejock | usr13: yeah | 16:55 |
| usr13 | wafflejock: THen make your password strong. | 16:55 |
| newbie|2 | usr13: I don't take it personal. I'm just being a little funny | 16:55 |
| wafflejock | usr13: indeed using keepassx | 16:55 |
| wafflejock | usr13: just got paranoid enough about the passwords cause of Adobe, thx adobe :) | 16:55 |
| newbie|2 | wafflejock: What is keeoassx? | 16:56 |
| wafflejock | usr13: it generates passwords. actually for SSH I just use private key | 16:56 |
| usr13 | wafflejock: The webserver applications are by default secure. | 16:56 |
| wafflejock | usr13: it depends on how you install them, not entirely but mostly | 16:56 |
| Sh1G3rU | adobe is the source of proud of all the lamers that are floating the internet !!! | 16:56 |
| r3d0c3d | thank you MonkeyDust :) | 16:56 |
| wafflejock | usr13: it's fine for a development machine, if you plan to expose it to the world there's somethings that should be locked down/turned off | 16:57 |
| newbie|2 | wafflejock: Does that mean that you don't need to have your own password ... if it generates them for you? | 16:57 |
| wafflejock | newbie|2: yeah 1 password to lock the local/encrypt the local keyfile database then it generates the rest | 16:57 |
| keep1 | ActionParsnip: Do I need to have DNS set up? | 16:57 |
| wafflejock | Ctrl+B to copy username from it and Ctrl+C for the password | 16:57 |
| wafflejock | it's pretty convenient | 16:57 |
| newbie|2 | wafflejock: thx | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: your home grade router will manage DNS for you | 16:57 |
| newbie|2 | I'm gonna go for now | 16:57 |
| newbie|2 | bye everyone | 16:57 |
| wafflejock | newbie|2: later | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: sec, i've seen this | 16:58 |
| usr13 | wafflejock: One good way to keep a system secure is to not install services you don't need, (or to uninstall ones you don't currently use). | 16:58 |
| wafflejock | usr13: absolutely it's a big part of the hardening stuff I posted above | 16:58 |
| usr13 | wafflejock: And a good router/firewall is also key. | 16:58 |
| wafflejock | usr13: I do have XFCE on my server which I know is a no-no, but all good | 16:58 |
| zykotick9 | DON'T use password! Use Passsentences ;) | 16:58 |
| usr13 | Yea, no need for GUI on a server IMO | 16:59 |
| wafflejock | usr13: Amazon seems to have a firewall ahead of my server | 16:59 |
| wafflejock | usr13: you think I should run a local firewall too ? | 16:59 |

| Surkow|laptop | hi guys, I'm wondering what script I usually see in the forums is used to diagnose disc/boot related issues. I previously installed linux mint 15 which gave me an error "kernel panic-not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0)". I couldn't find any issues with grub (it boots from the correct partition and I have no separate boot that can be full), but I figured trying ubuntu can't hurt. After installing ubuntu I | 17:00 |
| Surkow|laptop | ended up with another unbootable system. This time around I got "ALERT /dev/diskby-uuid/ does not exist. Dropping to shell" as error. | 17:00 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: change: send host-name "$host"; to send host-name "ActualHostName"; | 17:00 |
| === swaagie is now known as swaagie[food] | ||
| ActionParsnip | keep1: e.g: send host-name "fs01"; | 17:00 |
| wafflejock | Surkow|laptop: fsck | 17:00 |
| wafflejock | !fsck | Surkow|laptop | 17:01 |
| ubottu | Surkow|laptop: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 17:01 |
| === ClumsyFairyQueen is now known as sandyd | ||
| Surkow|laptop | wafflejock, they are new installations and new partitions. I'll try to do a file system check - but I doubt it will make a difference. | 17:01 |
| Surkow|laptop | I was thinking it might be a UUID issue | 17:02 |
| wafflejock | Surkow|laptop: oh thought you were just asking for that... yeah not sure about them errors though | 17:02 |
| Screwba | Heya all...quick question. I have joined my Ubuntu 13.10 computer to my Active Directory domain but I can not login using my AD Credentials unless I first create the account on the system but using my exact same process on Ubu 12.x and 13.04 works perfectly fine...I have searched around but can not find any reason why Ubu 13.10 is not auto-creating the users when I attempt to login...any suggestions? | 17:02 |
| wafflejock | Surkow|laptop: blkid to check the UUID not sure what's going wrong though | 17:03 |
| mustmodify | I'm timing out SSHing into a new machine. Is this more likely a firewall or a sneaky authentication issue? http://pastie.org/8510306 | 17:03 |
| Screwba | using wbinfo -t/-u/-g all work | 17:03 |
| Surkow|laptop | wafflejock, I normally see people with bootinfoscript | 17:03 |
| Surkow|laptop | "From a LiveCD, if you can download the boot info script from the following site it can tell us a lot about your boot files. Run the script, then post the contents of RESULTS.txt. | 17:03 |
| Surkow|laptop | http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net" | 17:03 |
| dewdude | mustmodify, do you have sshd running on port 22? | 17:03 |
| xevwork | Does apport generate crash logs for SUID applications? I know core dumps aren't generated unless you tweak an entry in proc. | 17:03 |
| Surkow|laptop | wafflejock, seems like the script calls blkid | 17:04 |
| dewdude | because, at least in my expierence; you'll connect to the ssh server and get output as it prompts for a login | 17:04 |
| wafflejock | yeah think blkid is just mean to be block device identifier or something haven't pulled up the man I don't think though | 17:05 |
| dewdude | so if you're not connecting at all; it's either not running, not running on port 22, or a firewall issue | 17:05 |
| wafflejock | +1 dewdude | 17:05 |
| wafflejock | should get prompted for password even if username is wrong assuming 22 is open and sshd is running | 17:05 |
| Rory | wafflejock: Yes of course! | 17:05 |
| Rory | wafflejock: Otherwise an attacker could easily tell if a username is valid or not | 17:06 |
| Screwba | and remember, SSH is not installed on ubuntu by default...which I find really weird...I thought it used to be though | 17:06 |
| wafflejock | Rory: indeed just pointing it out to mustmodify | 17:06 |
| Rory | Screwba: openssh-server has never been included in the default installation afaik | 17:06 |
| mustmodify | dewdude: It's not my box. A friend was told by a coworker that she should be able to access this machine. I'm also trying it. She's getting an error so she had me try. I want to tell her I think it's a firewall but thought I would run it by someone else first. I do not know for sure that it has sshd running. | 17:06 |
| wafflejock | Screwba: yeah think it's in a lot of Amazon images and whatnot but not Ubuntu itself | 17:07 |
| Screwba | Rory: I may be thinking of Debian, CentOS or Red Hat | 17:07 |
| DRiceTech | What's the easiest way to move files around on a samba network using Server 13.10 | 17:07 |
| DRiceTech | *LOTS* of files | 17:07 |
| dewdude | if you can't connect to it at all...then it's not running/not running on 22/firewalled | 17:07 |
| ecadre | Rory: True, not even a Debian standard desktop install includes openssh | 17:07 |

| Voziv | Is there a way to allow a normal user to be able to restart php/mysql/apache without giving them access to anything else? | 17:08 |
| dewdude | anyone care to answer a pptp question for me anyway? | 17:08 |
| DRiceTech | dewdude, i'll attempt it | 17:08 |
| Screwba | ecadre: I am pretty sure Debian used to add it by default... | 17:08 |
| wafflejock | dewdude: haha not sure you'll find a whole lot of support for that here but you can shoot | 17:08 |
| keep1 | ActionParsnip: there is nothing in the dhclient.conf . So I am adding send host-name ctf560Team1, correct? | 17:08 |
| hitsujiTMO | voziv give a user or group sudo access to a restricted set of apps or scripts | 17:08 |
| Voziv | I see, thanks | 17:09 |
| dewdude | when configuring pptpd; do you have to specify a non-existant IP range and forward with iptables to the LAN..or can you specify existing non-assigned LAN ip space? | 17:09 |
| Screwba | All: Anyone have any suggestions to my issue? | 17:09 |
| hitsujiTMO | Voziv: there's some examples in here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/sudo | 17:10 |
| Voziv | Is there a reccomended directory to put user scripts in? | 17:10 |
| zykotick9 | Voziv: ~/bin is handy, it's automatically in your PATH | 17:10 |
| __raven | hi | 17:11 |
| Screwba | Voziv: I usually use /usr/local/bin | 17:11 |
| wafflejock | dewdude: don't have a clear answer for you, my guess would be to keep any ranges separate, DHCP vs static etc. but I don't know PPTPd to say with any confidence | 17:11 |
| __raven | how to dd sda on livesystem 1 to sda on livesystem 2 via network? | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: no, it should be default populated | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: there is a file with $host instead of the actual hostname | 17:11 |
| dewdude | yeah, I only have like...3IP's on my network set to static..and my router handles those | 17:11 |
| DRiceTech | dewdude: your logic is correct, but I'm pretty sure you can do it either way | 17:11 |
| DRiceTech | just make sure they are out of the range like waffle suggested | 17:12 |

| wafflejock | __raven: must the system being DDed be live? I don't believe that's recommended | 17:12 |
| ActionParsnip | keep1: and so forth, the internet is an ocean of knowledge | 17:12 |
| dewdude | i can say my router doesn't care if i accidently assign a static IP in it's range; it picks it up and handles it | 17:12 |
| dewdude | becuase my slingboxes got an IP from DHCP; then they set themselves static | 17:13 |
| wafflejock | dewdude: yeah may be an issue if DHCP already gave out that address though | 17:13 |
| dewdude | oh, well aware of that | 17:13 |
| dewdude | i can check that before i pick a range | 17:13 |
| DRiceTech | best practice is to just limit your dhcp range and then use static addresses outside of the pool | 17:13 |
| wafflejock | yeah easiest to just give yourself the first 20 or so | 17:13 |
| wafflejock | whatever you need | 17:13 |
| wafflejock | then just set DHCP above that | 17:14 |
| wafflejock | just keeps things simple IMO | 17:14 |
| dewdude | yeah; I'm not sure what the DHCP range on my router is | 17:14 |
| Screwba | or use DHCP reservations | 17:14 |
| DRiceTech | ^^ | 17:14 |
| dewdude | I generally keep any static IP's over .200 | 17:14 |
| DRiceTech | dewdude: what router | 17:14 |
| dewdude | it's an Actiontec | 17:14 |
| dewdude | i have fios | 17:14 |
| DRiceTech | lucky | 17:14 |
| dewdude | i jusst haven't looked in it's confug | 17:14 |
| dewdude | config | 17:14 |
| DRiceTech | they usually take the entire .1-254 range | 17:15 |
| dewdude | but i do know i have set static IP's in it's DHCP range that were unassigned and it lists those assignments as static in it's statis | 17:15 |
| wafflejock | yeah I recently got a DD-WRT buffalo router, the interface is pretty awesome | 17:15 |
| __raven | hitsujiTMO: no its not mounted. i need to transfer the whole hdd/system from sys 1 to 2. i now did dd if ... | ssh root@sys2 "dd of=..." will that work? | 17:15 |
| dewdude | so as long as I don't pick an in use IP, it's pretty easy-going about that | 17:15 |
| DRiceTech | I uses Asus RTs with RMerlin FW | 17:15 |
| dewdude | I don't have ethernet to the ONT...otherwise I'd use something else entirely | 17:15 |

| knoppix_ | program to access cell phone via usb cable connection ? if any ? | 17:19 |
| DRiceTech | knoppix: you are looking for the Android SDK I assume | 17:19 |
| wafflejock | knoppix_: what kind of phone what kind of access | 17:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | __raven: no that would not work. maybe mounting the target as sshfs. But tbh id dd to a file, verify the file, send it via nfs, then trigger a dd on the target side | 17:19 |

| dewdude | on a cell phone | 17:20 |
| hitsujiTMO | ollie- its not recommended as someone could log in with a photo of you. but you could have a look into opencv | 17:20 |
| knoppix_ | ok | 17:21 |

| dewdude | oh well. but I know what you guys are saying in regards to making sure I stay outside the assigned range. | 17:23 |

| DRiceTech | is there a way to set a machine to have the unity desktop, but choose whether or not to launch it? | 17:25 |
| dewdude | it assigns IP's in order starting at .2 | 17:25 |
| ActionParsnip | DRiceTech: unity is a shell, not a desktop ;) | 17:25 |
| dewdude | exceptt for the cable boxes; which are on the MoCA network and get assigned over .100 | 17:25 |
| DRiceTech | mmm | 17:25 |
| DRiceTech | I'm behind on Desktop environments for ubuntu | 17:26 |
| ActionParsnip | DRiceTech: you are still using Gnome, just like you probably already did | 17:26 |

| ActionParsnip | keep1: you could add the name resolution in /etc/hosts | 17:29 |
| hitsujiTMO | DRiceTech: rsync should handle that for you | 17:29 |
| keep1 | ActionParsnip: yes, if I ping the hostname it resolves to the IP. | 17:29 |
| DRiceTech | rsync is super slow | 17:30 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: true rsync can recover from the failure but does slow things down... depending on the machines at each end | 17:30 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: is it all Gigabit? | 17:30 |
| DRiceTech | wafflejock: it is now, lol | 17:30 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: you could twist up a crossover cable and go direct | 17:30 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: I did it to restore some stuff off my NAS recently, just cut out the middle man | 17:30 |
| DRiceTech | yeah, I suppose I could - sigh I'm just going to install ubuntu-desktop and go GUI | 17:31 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: just set static IPs on both and hook a crossover between the two, then use cp I think that was the fastest solution... I was only moving like 40GB though | 17:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | DRiceTech: what type of data? can you not just tar it in chunks? and transfer the chunks over? | 17:31 |
| DRiceTech | hitsuiji: media - already compressed | 17:32 |
| DRiceTech | i'm giving them their own personal netflix | 17:32 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: really I don't know if you want to even try that over a network | 17:32 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: is bringing the drives internal an option? | 17:32 |
| DRiceTech | I could probably just pull the two ext4 jbod drives out of the DLINKNAS but that scares me a bit | 17:33 |
| wafflejock | one sec want to do some math on the theororetical best here | 17:33 |
| === mat__ is now known as Guest51634 | ||
| Guest51634 | . | 17:35 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: looking at 15.5 hrs I think at minimum | 17:35 |
| DRiceTech | is that through gigE? | 17:36 |
| wafflejock | yeah will see if I can find an online calc to verify but 7 TB * 8 bits per byte to get to bits, = 56 Terabits = 56,000 Gigabits / 60 seconds per minute / 60 minutes per hour | 17:36 |
| DRiceTech | i'd say that's a very conservative rate - that's if all files were the same size | 17:37 |
| DRiceTech | the math is right though | 17:37 |
| === map is now known as Guest73855 | ||
| wafflejock | you mean you think it will take longer right? | 17:38 |
| DRiceTech | yeah i think it'll take a lot longer | 17:38 |
| wafflejock | yeah definitely | 17:38 |
| wafflejock | I was saying theororetical best | 17:38 |
| DRiceTech | yeah that is definitely the theoretical best haha | 17:38 |
| DRiceTech | when will computers be as fast as brains, damnt! | 17:38 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: if you brought them in you can get like 300 MB/s (2.4Gbps) I think on regular SATA and higher on the SATA II/III I believe | 17:39 |
| DRiceTech | yeah, i think that's what i'm going to do | 17:40 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: but like you said don't know if I would risk it if the time isn't a big deal | 17:40 |
| DRiceTech | i keep thinking like this, if i powerdown the DLINKNAS and pull the two ext4 jbod disks out - put em in the linux box, it won't modify anything too badly if i just copy the contents - take em out, throw em back in the DLINKNAS and power it back up | 17:41 |
| wafflejock | DRiceTech: you should be able to mount read only to minmize your risk | 17:42 |
| MonkeyDust | DRiceTech a computer as large as old ENIAC can perform tasks of a mouse foetus brain or so - and that's considered an huge accomplishment | 17:42 |
| wafflejock | that is a huge accomplishment | 17:42 |
| DRiceTech | MonkeyDust: Yeah I read about that - pretty cool | 17:42 |
| wafflejock | the brain is a complex dense mess | 17:42 |
| wafflejock | Watson is pretty amazing | 17:43 |

| Screwba | anyone know Ubuntu and Active Directory integration? | 17:45 |
| wafflejock | Screwba: sorry negative, I saw some issue 13.10 works on other Ubuntu doesn't make user folder and such on login or something | 17:45 |
| Screwba | wafflejock: I have 12.04/12.10/13.04 working perfectly but, yes, 13.10 does not create the directories for some reason... | 17:46 |
| Screwba | wafflejock: thanks | 17:47 |
| Screwba | wafflejock: know of anywhere else I could ask? | 17:48 |
| wafflejock | Screwba: you can try #windows but they will likely point you back here, guess askubuntu.com and post a bug so you can just link later for others to see your full issue and what you've tried | 17:50 |

| ollie- | does anyone know a program for face unlock? im too confused to make my own | 18:15 |
| genii | viju: When you manually configure a connection by command-line or edit the interfaces file, network manager then assumes your connection has been manually configured ( which it has) and will not do anything to override that. | 18:15 |
| wafflejock | ollie-: if as you said you aren't concerned about security why not just go with the auto-login option | 18:16 |

| dlevey | Afternoon folks, kind of a weird question. I recently purchased a dedicated server with Ubuntu 13.04 on it, with some altered configurations, as it's in a colo spot a clean install is out of my range of options.. Is there a way to reconfigure all settings to default, almost like a clean install? | 18:17 |
| === dean is now known as dean|away | ||
| genii | viju: The simplest thing is to clean up your /etc/network/interfaces file back to normal and then it should work again properly | 18:20 |
| genii | viju: Alternately, if your pppoeconfig info is correct, just issue the pon command to start that one up | 18:21 |
| viju | ok | 18:22 |
| viju | I'll try that and come back if I need further help. | 18:22 |

| rigo88 | hi. i installed modem-manager-gui but it sais no devices in system | 18:23 |
| rigo88 | as i have a 3g device in my laptop i understand not why it sais this. | 18:24 |
| dlevey | http://url.phsrvr.com/9ME6EQ | 18:24 |
| genii | rigo88: Depending on the type ( for instance Gobi cards ) it may need a special startup routine | 18:25 |
| wafflejock | dlevey: http://askubuntu.com/questions/48886/how-do-i-list-the-default-installed-packages | 18:26 |
| wafflejock | dlevey: you can use dpkg --get-selections to see all currently installed packages | 18:26 |
| genii | !info gobi-loader | rigo88 Like for instance this one | 18:27 |
| ubottu | rigo88 Like for instance this one: gobi-loader (source: gobi-loader): Firmware loader for Qualcom GobiUSB chipsets. In component main, is optional. Version 0.7-0ubuntu2 (saucy), package size 8 kB, installed size 67 kB | 18:27 |
| rigo88 | i check what is the card name. | 18:27 |
| dlevey | wafflejock: Preciate the response... I know there's some network configurations that were adjusted, how would I revert those to default as well? | 18:27 |
| EminentDomain | interestingly I've found out that torrenting on ubuntu is crap loads faster than on windows | 18:27 |
| wafflejock | dpkg-reconfigure packagename should re run configuration for a package dlevey not entirely sure on reverting the network config changes | 18:28 |

| Kry | Hallo | 18:28 |
| dlevey | wafflejock: Thanks. | 18:28 |
| wafflejock | dlevey: sure thing good luck on that one... a clean install would certainly be easier if you can find a way | 18:28 |
| dlevey | I mean, any recommendations on how to do that for a remote location? | 18:29 |
| Kry | I'm having a 64 but windows, but I can't emulate 64 bit ubuntu in VBox. Do I miss something? | 18:29 |
| wafflejock | dlevey: well I just use Amazon AWS where they have a web management console for starting instances and picking images and things like that | 18:29 |
| dlevey | wafflejock: ;) Yah, not quite the same, I've been on digital ocean for some time now. | 18:30 |
| wafflejock | dlevey: think you could do a Grub ISO boot but I don't have experience and am not sure I would be comfortable doing this without physical access | 18:30 |
| rigo88 | 3G QUALCOMM 3G Module Driver | 18:30 |
| rigo88 | cant tell u more | 18:30 |
| rigo88 | it is an acer aspire one zg5 / aoa150 | 18:30 |
| wafflejock | dlevey: nice digital ocean looks like a pretty good deal | 18:31 |
| wafflejock | dlevey: not so good on the admin interface and backup and such though huh? | 18:31 |
| rigo88 | well i installed gobi-loader. do i need simply to reboot? | 18:32 |
| dlevey | wafflejock: Yah, if you want to try it lemme get you a coupon // i like it. | 18:32 |
| genii | rigo88: I would suspect then it is a Gobi type card because of the Qualcomm chipset. For this you need the firmware off your Windows driver cd for it, plus the gobi-loader module mentioned earlier | 18:32 |
| dlevey | wafflejock: If you want a coupon for D/O send me a pm | 18:32 |
| wafflejock | sure might be worth experimenting with, database heavy stuff really benefits from SSD | 18:32 |
| daftykins | Kry: are you only able to boot 32-bit OSs? | 18:32 |
| rigo88 | i dont have the driver cd | 18:33 |
| daftykins | rigo88: try the manufacturer website for your laptop model, it may have driver downloads to do what genii suggests | 18:33 |
| Kry | I'm having a 64 bit windows, but I can't emulate 64 bit ubuntu in VBox. Do I miss something? | 18:34 |
| rigo88 | im on it. it only has xp drivers :D | 18:34 |
| Kry | crap, wrong button :( | 18:34 |
| genii | rigo88: Can you please pastebin the result of command: lspci -nn so that we may see the vendor:device id, and then look up the exact card | 18:34 |
| rigo88 | corse. on it. | 18:34 |
| ObrienDave | Kry... did you install 64bit Vbox? | 18:34 |
| genii | Bleh, work needs me, back in 5-10 minutes tops | 18:35 |
| Kry | I haven't tried, I use 64 bit on my real machine, so I guessed, I need 64 bit on VBox too | 18:35 |

| zykotick9 | FourFire: gnash+html5 for youtube "somewhat" works... but i wouldn't even go so far as to say "most" | 18:55 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, H.264 is well implemented on many sites | 18:55 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, You may not strictly need flash | 18:55 |

| wolfgang_ | Kennst dich mit phpmyadmin aus | 18:56 |
| wolfgang_ | ? | 18:56 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, Should already be part of Firefox or other browsers | 18:56 |
| Fachwirt | leider nein | 18:56 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, It's part of the html5 suite | 18:56 |
| wolfgang_ | :-( | 18:57 |
| daftykins | Kry: EFI isn't something that's going to help your situation | 18:57 |
| FourFire | geekmasterflash: so when FF asks me to install flash, what settings do I alter in order to force it to check for/use H.264 first? | 18:57 |
| BluesKaj | !de > wolfgang_ | 18:57 |
| Fachwirt | kennst du noch einen anderen Linux Chat in Deutsch? | 18:57 |
| ubottu | wolfgang_, please see my private message | 18:57 |

| ubottu | Fachwirt: In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! | 18:57 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, Ah, in that case it's a site design choice to use flash | 18:57 |
| * ObrienDave is going back to sleep | 18:57 | |
| Kry | https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads I got the Windows host from here | 18:58 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, Even though it would probably work without it, they are going to require it. | 18:58 |
| viju | This what my Network.conf and interfaces look like - http://pastebin.com/FRicuYQ2 | 18:58 |
| Kry | x86/amd64 | 18:58 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, Or at least someone they claims to be flash like gnash | 18:58 |
| FourFire | would zykotick9 's suggestion work in that case then? | 18:58 |
| viju | could somebody tell what's wrong with that I can't see networkmanager? | 18:58 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, Worth a shot, maybe | 18:58 |
| FourFire | can you kindly direct me to a tutorial in installing gnash then? | 18:59 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, sudo apt-get install gnash | 18:59 |
| geekmasterflash | FourFire, Then just disable flash in FireFox and make sure gnash is enabled. | 18:59 |
| FourFire | heh I forget that everything is so simple in Linux | 19:00 |
| daftykins | Kry: x86/amd64 is 32/64-bit - you can only have had one. also what do you mean 'Windows host' ? you want to use ubuntu in virtualbox on a Windows OS? | 19:00 |
| Kry | Yep, I want an Ubuntu64 on my Windows 7 host | 19:00 |
| daftykins | Kry: ok, so if you boot back into Windows can you click Start -> right click 'Computer' and select 'Properties' then tell me whether it's 32 or 64-bit Windows 7 and what the model # of the processor is? | 19:01 |
| Kry | 64 bit windows | 19:01 |
| daftykins | Kry: you're looking now and are reading it for certain? | 19:02 |
| geekmasterflash | Kry, Also... would this not be a better question for VMWare directly? Is there some specific failure Ubuntu is having or is failing to let you run anything in VM? | 19:02 |
| daftykins | geekmasterflash: *virtualbox | 19:02 |
| Kry | I installed everything in 64 bit so far :D | 19:03 |
| Kry | It's K50I or K50L ASUS btw | 19:03 |

| viju | Hello again any idea about http://pastebin.com/FRicuYQ2? | 19:04 |
| wafflejock | Kry: when you create the new virtual box instance in virtual box for installing linux did you pick linux 64 bit | 19:04 |
| viju | How to get back NetworkManager? | 19:04 |
| daftykins | viju: your paste expired | 19:05 |
| Kry | It says I'm having 2 T6570's (I think it's a dual core) | 19:05 |
| zykotick9 | viju: consider paste.ubuntu.com for your next one... | 19:05 |
| viju | Though it says NetworkManager is already running but it doesn't show up in the taskbar | 19:05 |
| daftykins | Kry: ok so your processor does support Intel VT-x as mentioned here: http://ark.intel.com/products/42841/ | 19:05 |
| geekmasterflash | viju, What DE are you using? | 19:06 |
| zykotick9 | viju: have you tried running nm-applet | 19:06 |
| viju | DE? | 19:06 |
| daftykins | Kry: so as wafflejock is asking, when you create a new virtual machine, are you selected 32-bit or 64-bit and what ISO are you trying to use to run in this VM? | 19:06 |
| geekmasterflash | viju, Desktop enviroment. like unity, gnome, kde... | 19:06 |
| daftykins | *selecting | 19:06 |
| genii | daftykins: They forgot to put a space before the question mark so it became part of the url | 19:06 |
| viju | unity | 19:06 |
| Kry | A moment please | 19:06 |
| geekmasterflash | viju, as zykotick9 pointed out have you run nm-applet from cli? | 19:07 |
| viju | I have no idea what that is | 19:07 |
| geekmasterflash | viju, open a terminal and put in nm-applet and press enter | 19:07 |
| geekmasterflash | viju, Check if the network icon shows up after | 19:07 |
| viju | I just tried to run sudo pppoeconf and networkmanager disappeared | 19:07 |
| daftykins | genii: heh ah yes of course :> | 19:07 |
| Kry | Yes, I indeed tried to create a 32 bit VM | 19:09 |
| Kry | Thanks for your help | 19:09 |
| daftykins | Kry: ok so try a 64-bit with a 64-bit ISO | 19:09 |
| Kry | At the school computers it wasn't even a question :P | 19:09 |
| daftykins | and a 32-bit with a 32-bit ISO | 19:09 |
| daftykins | school? what question? :) | 19:10 |
| WiGust | Hey. I have an external hard drive. If it mounted need to startup services on boot, else don't. How can I do this? | 19:10 |
| Kry | At school there are only 32 bit computers, and I thought the VBox is the same | 19:10 |
| wafflejock | Kry: yeah maybe was all 32 bit stuff | 19:10 |
| wafflejock | yeah same just have to mind the 64 bit business | 19:10 |
| posthuman | Hello , what is the best way to do automatic full backup on linux server ? | 19:11 |
| posthuman | is lvm snapshot enough ? | 19:11 |
| wafflejock | posthuman: I use rsync and git for my local stuff | 19:12 |
| Smilex | How can I check if I'm using the official Ubuntu mesa packages? I might have installed some stuff from source, and I want to check which ones are in use | 19:12 |
| wafflejock | posthuman: for a full server just have AWS so my only experience so far is using their interface for taking snapshots... | 19:12 |
| wafflejock | Smilex: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa <- think you would just sudo apt-get install --reinstall mesa | 19:14 |
| posthuman | can i fully backup a running system using rsync ? | 19:14 |
| wafflejock | posthuman: I just use it for my www and home folders but I think if you run as root you can, would look to others for clarification though as I don't do that... my aws instance I use the console for full system snapshots | 19:14 |
| wafflejock | posthuman: I use clonezilla a dd wrapper for backing up my local machine to an image | 19:15 |
| wafflejock | but it's a manual process to some degreee | 19:15 |
| BluesKaj | Smilex. check in the package manager | 19:15 |
| Smilex | BluesKaj, the package manager disappeared after doing sudo apt-get autoremove | 19:16 |
| * zykotick9 thinks full backups or image backups are a waste of space. backup your data / backup your config files = done | 19:16 | |
| * geekmasterflash agrees with zykotick9 | 19:17 | |
| BluesKaj | Smilex. sudo apt-get install synaptic | 19:17 |
| posthuman | thank u wafflejock :) and thank u zykotick9 .... so where is the benefit of using lvm over or instead of classic backup solutions | 19:18 |
| Smilex | BluesKaj, ok thanks | 19:18 |
| posthuman | while lvm is pretty "classic" too :) | 19:18 |

| Bennage_ | can anyone tell me why I can't get samba4 to install on 12.04? | 19:20 |
| Kry | How much /boot do I need for it? | 19:20 |
| WiGust | Guys, is no way to depend services with mount? Mediatomb loses his database when disk wasn't plug in. | 19:21 |
| === erratic is now known as Guest49136 | ||
| garshasp | oh i have to dl synaptic package manager | 19:23 |
| Kry | Is 100-200 MB enough for it? (Before I make LVM for the rest of the HDD?) | 19:24 |
| === z_ is now known as Guest98032 | ||
| daftykins | Kry: if all you're doing is testing it out, select use entire disk | 19:25 |
| Kry | I want to test Dota2 on Ubuntu | 19:25 |
| WiGust | Kry: 100 usually enough | 19:25 |
| Kry | I've allowed 20GB hard disk for it so far | 19:25 |
| Kry | 8-10 GB is Dota2 | 19:25 |
| daftykins | Kry: you're not going to be able to play a game in a VM | 19:26 |
| daftykins | Kry: or is this a real native install now? | 19:26 |
| Kry | It's a VM | 19:26 |
| Kry | Not Native so far | 19:27 |
| daftykins | Kry: then you won't get a Steam game going in it | 19:28 |
| daftykins | it won't work properly | 19:28 |
| wafflejock | Kry: yeah really you're not gonna get the same performance if you can get it working through the VM, you'll be using whatever graphics capability virtual box can pass along, but it's not going to be the same | 19:28 |
| Kry | I don't really need that | 19:28 |
| Kry | It's only for test so far, 128 VRAM is enough so far | 19:28 |
| jhutchins_wk | Kry: No good reason for a seperate /boot | 19:29 |
| wafflejock | Kry: well I'm thinking GPU wise you're going to run into problems, you can give it a shot and it may very well work, but I wouldn't be too shocked if you run into problems | 19:29 |
| Kry | I can't get LVM to work on Ubuntu so far, isn't it included? | 19:29 |
| toyotapie | Help, when I try to sign up for the new ubuntu forums site it says "That username is already in use or does not meet the administrator's standards. If you are ubuntu.com and you have forgotten your password, click here." I've tried about 10 different email addresses and it won't accept anything. | 19:30 |
| daftykins | you don't even need LVM for your test | 19:30 |
| Kry | What if I plan to install it native? | 19:31 |
| === Thorium220 is now known as Thor|Away | ||
| daftykins | Kry: well what do you believe LVM is going to do for you that you'll miss without? | 19:33 |
| Kry | Point taken. Then I need only a swap+free space, right? | 19:33 |
| daftykins | Kry: yep a standard super simple partitioning scheme would be EXT4 root (/) and swap | 19:34 |
| cristian_c | Hi | 19:34 |
| cristian_c | I've installed bustle | 19:34 |
| cristian_c | After I've launched it, I've got this message: 'No diagram loaded' 'Having saved the output of bustle-dbus-monitor' to a file , open that file to see a sequence diagram of D-Bus activity.' | 19:34 |
| cristian_c | How I solve this? | 19:34 |
| cristian_c | I've also installed graphviz | 19:35 |
| daftykins | cristian_c: sounds pretty straightforward, so you've got to create a file first? | 19:35 |
| daftykins | cristian_c: so running bustle-dbus-monitor creates a file presumably...? | 19:35 |
| Smilex | Could it be an issue that I have libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental and libgl1-mesa-dri installed? | 19:36 |
| Kry | Thanks for your help | 19:37 |
| WiGust | Is systemd stable like on other systems? What if I will replace init.d to systemd? | 19:37 |
| cristian_c | daftykins, I've tried to launch bustle-dbus-monitor but error appears again :( | 19:38 |
| leptone | can someone link me to an article that will let me access the files in my Macintosh HD from Ubuntu on my dual boot system | 19:38 |
| daftykins | cristian_c: the same one? perhaps you need to read up on how these programs are used | 19:39 |
| daftykins | leptone: i hear reading HFS+ is in its' infancy and requires some pretty nasty changes. your best bet is to have another disk and swap files between them over NTFS or something else | 19:39 |
| cristian_c | daftykins, the same one :( | 19:39 |
| leptone | daftykins, ive done it before on a previous installation.... | 19:40 |
| geekmasterflash | leptone, Have you installed hfsprogs? | 19:40 |
| leptone | geekmasterflash, no. | 19:40 |
| daftykins | leptone: then unfortunately i can't function as a human google interface for you ;) | 19:40 |
| leptone | daftykins, np. worth a shot :) | 19:41 |
| cristian_c | daftykins, ok, I've tried man bustle | 19:41 |
| cristian_c | daftykins, 'You should generate a dump using bustle-dbus-monitor (N.B. not dbus- | 19:41 |
| cristian_c | monitor) and pass its filename as an argument to this command.' | 19:41 |
| phillyj | is this the right place to get some some help using cURL? | 19:41 |
| geekmasterflash | leptone, sudo apt-get install hfsprogs and then you can mount the disk with sudo mount -t hfsplus -o force,rw (dev) (mount point) | 19:41 |

| Hetal | I have a program that crashes a lot but it is essential to stay on in my Ubuntu server | 19:47 |
| Hetal | Is it possible to make that crash into a restart? | 19:47 |
| Hetal | With some bashing script | 19:47 |
| maico | Hetal, you might reverse engineer that program first | 19:48 |
| Hetal | Maico : how do I do that, I am still new to Ubuntu | 19:51 |
| maico | Hetal, there are several programming tools availeble from ubuntu software center, but i remind you that reverse engineering is a long and painstaking process, so you can better decide if the program stays usefull. | 19:53 |
| Drognan | I use eth1 for packet capture only, what should I do so I don't have to do "ifconfig eth1 up" after a reboot? | 19:53 |
| Hetal | maico : Every time the program crashes, I want Ubuntu to do pkill php then screen ./start.sh | 19:54 |

| zykotick9 | Drognan: if you aren't using N-M for this device, you could configure it in /etc/networks/interfaces and include an "auto eth1" line (which means, bring it up on boot automatically) | 19:54 |
| Drognan | thanks | 19:55 |
| reisio | Kihokki: define work | 19:55 |
| maico | Hetal : i suggest to unistall the entire program, then reinstall a fresh download with opt-get. | 19:55 |
| Kry | ONBOOT="yes" should be changed to "no" | 19:55 |
| Kihokki | reisio, you mean what's inside the run.sh? | 19:55 |
| zykotick9 | maico: is opt-get a real thing? | 19:55 |
| Hetal | maico : Its not the programs fault, the RAM sometimes gets overused | 19:56 |
| Danato | whats the login keyring for? | 19:56 |
| Kihokki | reisio, this is inside run.sh: #!/bin/sh | 19:56 |
| Kihokki | java -Djava.awt.headless=true -classpath .:./lib/pircbot.jar org.jibble.socnet.SocialNetworkBot ./config.ini | 19:56 |
| zykotick9 | Danato: login keyring? what? never heard of it. | 19:56 |
| reisio | Kihokki: does it work if you run it itself? | 19:57 |
| Danato | zykotick9: right when you login, theres a login keyring that you have to enter the password. what is it for? | 19:57 |
| Kihokki | reisio, yes it does | 19:57 |
| reisio | Kihokki: as root or your user? | 19:57 |
| Kihokki | as root | 19:57 |
| zykotick9 | Danato: do you have autologin enabled? if so, disable that, then you won't be propted for keyring. | 19:57 |
| reisio | Kihokki: and you're talking about root's crontab? (sudo crontab -l) | 19:57 |
| tyler_d | Danato, permissions and passwords for your user. it sounds broken if it doesn't unlock at ;login though. | 19:58 |
| zykotick9 | tyler_d: see by message above ;) | 19:58 |
| Kihokki | reisio, yes, the command is still in there | 19:58 |
| reisio | Kihokki: okay, and you ran chmod +x run.sh ? | 19:58 |
| Kihokki | yes, otherwise it wouldn't run | 19:58 |
| reisio | Kihokki: okay, and is there a shebang? | 19:59 |
| Danato | zykotick9: How do i know if its enabled? I do have to login (enter username and password) at startup | 19:59 |

| reisio | Kihokki: does the java command work as root from any location? | 20:00 |
| reisio | Kihokki: cd /tmp/ first, for example | 20:00 |
| zykotick9 | Danato: actually, if you've changed your password, that might explain your issue... | 20:01 |
| Kihokki | reisio, yes it does | 20:01 |
| Danato | zykotick9: somehow I think it was enabled. on Login Screen settings (LightDM) there was "Automatically log in: As user: Danato | 20:01 |
| reisio | Kihokki: okay, what does the command actually do? | 20:02 |
| Danato | zykotick9: but i still had to enter my password and username at startup, and no, i ddnt change my password | 20:02 |
| reisio | Kihokki: and is it important to call the shell script rather than the command itself | 20:02 |
| zykotick9 | Danato: you'll have to enter your password once, no matter what. so turn that autologin crap (family friendly word for it) off. best of luck. | 20:03 |
| Kihokki | reisio, launches an irc bot which visualizes social networks inside a channel, and I haven't tried that yet | 20:03 |

| Level15 | reisio: yeah, besides that :P | 20:04 |
| zykotick9 | AlexPortable: i've had "some" success opening them in LibreOffice YMMV | 20:04 |
| reisio | Kihokki: it all sounds fine, you could check that /bin/sh actually exists | 20:04 |
| reisio | Kihokki: otherwise I'd say double check the stuff I already mentioned, and the path | 20:05 |
| reisio | Kihokki: it's usually one of those things | 20:05 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: i'd hate to see the system without /bin/sh ;) | 20:05 |
| reisio | Kihokki: it could also be that you java is all hung up, ps aux | grep -i java might help you out there | 20:05 |
| reisio | zykotick9: I dare say so would Kihokki :p | 20:05 |
| AlexPortable | reisio: they always tend to mess up the layout | 20:06 |
| reisio | AlexPortable: nah | 20:06 |
| reisio | AlexPortable: but if you really cared about layout, you would use an awful proprietary binary format | 20:06 |
| AlexPortable | ... | 20:06 |
| AlexPortable | Tell that to my professors at the university | 20:07 |
| reisio | AlexPortable: give me their numbers | 20:07 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: s/would/wouldn't/ i hope?! | 20:07 |
| AlexPortable | reisio: i dont have their numbers | 20:07 |
| reisio | zykotick9: yes wouldn't | 20:07 |
| reisio | AlexPortable: give me their home addresses and social security numbers | 20:07 |
| reisio | you can probably make an awful pdf and name the file foo.docx.pdf | 20:08 |
| reisio | and their awful OS won't even allow them to see that it isn't a .docx really | 20:08 |
| Beldar | AlexPortable, I use MS word only for the exact reasons you suggest on my papers. | 20:08 |

| Beldar | AlexPortable, I have W8.1 just for that I got it really cheap with a student discount. | 20:10 |

| reisio | Kihokki: okay | 20:14 |
| Beldar | reisio, As long as the papers render correctly they should use what ever works, I started on open source and use it 99% of the time, my papers are all emailed and are rather complex and long so it is a matter of avoiding any hassles for me. | 20:14 |
| reisio | Kihokki: you actually want it to run every minute? | 20:14 |
| Beldar | garshasp, I forget the exact problem. | 20:15 |

| Smilex | In "/opt/xorg/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/" I have ati_drv.so and radeon_drv.so, which would be the correct one for the open source driver? | 20:15 |
| AlexPortable | or wait | 20:15 |
| reisio | Beldar: sure, but there is obviously no 'correctly' for a format like docs, otherwise 3rd party implementations would have no trouble rendering "correctly" | 20:15 |

| Kry | I'm quite new to Linux systems, I thought KDE is for Kubuntu | 20:18 |
| Beldar | reisio, The problem is I think is that word the most commonly used has different code then say OO or libre, in some cases it is okay, on all of my papers I have opened them with libre and visa versa and they were different missing some things and the font is off, I would rather use open source nbut can't risk it really. | 20:18 |

| reisio | Beldar: requiring .docx is a silly requirement | 20:23 |

| Kry | KVirc has KDE error | 20:24 |
| reisio | Kry: mmm you should use the package manager | 20:24 |

| guest123124 | so can anyone help me with fn-keys problem? everything works except brightness and screen switching. Tryed messing with grub and still nothing | 20:25 |
| Beldar | geekmasterflash, sorry 2010 | 20:26 |
| Kry | How do I get terminal in latest version? | 20:26 |
| geekmasterflash | Beldar, I presumed, though an Old English version of world would be awesome. | 20:26 |
| Beldar | ;) | 20:27 |
| daftykins | Kry: run terminal :> | 20:27 |
| daftykins | Kry: pressing ctrl+alt+t is a good shortcut | 20:27 |
| guest324 | can a program for 13.04 be easily installed in 13.04 whilst in 13.10 | 20:27 |
| Kry | shortcut works, thanks | 20:27 |

| geekmasterflash | Beldar, According to WineHQ (which should always be looked at with suspicion) Word 2002 is the only gold level certified version. The rest are mostly garbage. | 20:27 |
| geekmasterflash | guest324, Can you be more specific? | 20:28 |
| Rory | guest324: Not sure what you mean by that | 20:28 |
| geekmasterflash | guest324, Are you asking if you can install a 13.04 program in 13.10? | 20:28 |
| guest324 | Rory, more out of curiosity, is it possible to not have to reboot into 13.04. can i stay in 13.10 | 20:28 |
| guest324 | geekmasterflash, no | 20:28 |
| Beldar | geekmasterflash, yeah, like I said I had it working but did not test it, I did not trust it on writing grad papers. | 20:29 |
| Rory | guest324: You have both 13.04 and 13.10 dual-booted on your system, and you are current in 13.10. You wish to administer your 13.04 system without rebooting? | 20:29 |
| Beldar | I would not use wine for anything anyway | 20:29 |
| guest324 | Rory, yes | 20:29 |
| geekmasterflash | Beldar, Eh, I can get games to work pretty well :D | 20:30 |
| Rory | guest324: Yes you can mount the 13.04 partition and chroot into it... but why? | 20:30 |
| guest324 | Rory, to avoid rebooting into 13.04 | 20:31 |
| Beldar | geekmasterflash, I don't game so not an issue for me. | 20:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | geekmasterflash: Beldar why use office in wine when there's free native alternatives? | 20:31 |
| Beldar | hitsujiTMO, YOU have missed the points, and we have been asked by the OPS to take this elsewhere. | 20:32 |
| guest123124 | can anyone exlain me why in xev fn+f2,f3,f4 does not work while other fn keys works? | 20:32 |
| Rory | guest324: You could have done it by now | 20:32 |
| geekmasterflash | hitsujiTMO, Oh, I agree, but apparently there is some formatting that OpenOffice can't emulate. | 20:32 |
| reisio | as he already said, his professors fail him if characters aren't kerned properly | 20:32 |
| Mojo_Jojo | *shudders* office X_X, try the libreoffice suite, Ubuntu comes with it. | 20:32 |
| reisio | guest123124: /nick xevguy | 20:32 |
| Kry | It says No package found by the name xchat.XChat-GNOME or something like this | 20:32 |
| reisio | guest123124: what are they supposed to do? | 20:32 |
| guest324 | Rory, there's more implications besides the time to complete the task, of course | 20:33 |
| reisio | Kry: what says? | 20:33 |
| Kry | Terminal | 20:33 |
| picca | Kry: i wouldn't bother with the GNOME version of Xchat | 20:33 |
| guest324 | there are* | 20:33 |
| Kry | When I try to install XChat manually | 20:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | geekmasterflash: i meant kingsoft | 20:33 |
| Rory | guest324: I won't pry. Mount the partition that 13.04 is on to a known location, and chroot into it to install your software or do whatever | 20:33 |
| reisio | geekmasterflash: it can emulate anything, but at a certain point it becomes a waste of time to emulate undocumented peculiarities of a proprietary format | 20:33 |
| Beldar | hitsujiTMO, Sorry for the caps I type to fast and my first words get capped at times. | 20:33 |
| reisio | Kry: with what command | 20:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | Beldar: np | 20:33 |
| Rory | !chroot | guest324 | 20:33 |
| ubottu | guest324: A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 20:33 |

| dry[1] | hi. I have new Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Is there any change in permissions that don't allow other files to access subdirectories? I haven't change anything and my php code stopped working on new ubuntu. Description: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20223340/php-access-to-directory-from-file | 20:34 |
| guest324 | Rory, thanks, good to know | 20:34 |
| reisio | Kry: just apt-get install xchat | 20:34 |
| reisio | Kry: or apt-get install xchat-gnome | 20:34 |
| picca | Kry: are you really wanting to use xchat or xchat-gnome? | 20:34 |
| reisio | Kry: trivially different packages | 20:34 |
| Surkow|laptop | wafflejock, I ran the bootinfoscript - No UUID issues | 20:35 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: xchat-gnome was a major 'fail' for me, back in the day (when i was still using xchat) ;) "trivially differnt" isn't accurate IMO ;) | 20:35 |
| Surkow|laptop | still got the ALERT /dev/diskby-uuid/ does not exist. Dropping to shell | 20:35 |
| reisio | zykotick9: yeah, but it is regardless :p | 20:36 |
| MVanDruff | i am so beyond ready to throw this thing out of the window and i live on a third story | 20:36 |
| wafflejock | Surkow|laptop: can you see the /dev/diskby-uuid directory navigating there manually? | 20:36 |
| reisio | MVanDruff: so why haven't you | 20:36 |
| MVanDruff | cause i need the internets | 20:37 |
| wafflejock | MVanDruff: roof test? | 20:37 |
| Sach | Upgraded to 13.04. USB mouse works but not the touchpad. Any ideas? | 20:37 |
| reisio | MVanDruff: :) | 20:37 |
| Surkow|laptop | wafflejock, I can do that from initramfs busybox in grub? or do I have to boot into a live usb disk again? | 20:37 |
| MVanDruff | the stupid computer still doesnt want to recognise my soundblaster card | 20:37 |
| kry_ | It worked, Thanks | 20:37 |
| MVanDruff | it says its there but doesnt want to output | 20:37 |
| wafflejock | Surkow|laptop: was curious when it drops you to command line if you can cd to /dev and see the device or not, dmesg may lead to some more info too | 20:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | sach did you hit fn + f9 or whatever else acpi key that you have that toggles the touchpad? | 20:38 |
| MVanDruff | has my 11 year old behemoth finally become incompatible with life? | 20:39 |
| Beldar | MVanDruff, Lots of linux that will run on it that is supported. | 20:39 |
| Surkow|laptop | wafflejock, I boot via grub the "ubuntu" entry, it can find all hardware and tries to boot from the disk. I end up with a busybox prompt saying (initramfs). I can browse to dev but there is no /diskby-uuid directory in there. | 20:40 |
| MVanDruff | it worked fine like a week ago | 20:40 |
| reisio | MVanDruff: 11? Ouch | 20:40 |
| Sach | hitsujiTMO: fn + f7 in my case. even that doesnt work. When using 12.10, I use easily switch between touchpad and usb simply by using either (I culd even use both at the same time) | 20:40 |
| wafflejock | Surkow|laptop: does sudo fdisk -l show the drives? | 20:41 |
| MVanDruff | what can i say reisio i am broke. and the fact that i just got laid off doesnt make things easier | 20:41 |
| Surkow|laptop | wafflejock, it lacks most binaries - including fdisk | 20:41 |
| Surkow|laptop | it's just busybox | 20:41 |
| Mojo_Jojo | Easy to build a half decent system from scrap or free parts ^_^ | 20:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | Surkow|laptop: can you give us more details. did you change any config or modify hardware? | 20:41 |
| wafflejock | Surkow|laptop: ah okay just shooting spitballs here | 20:42 |
| MVanDruff | mojo noone has free parts | 20:42 |
| Surkow|laptop | hitsujiTMO, I previously talked to him about the issue - which is why I haven't started from scratch again. | 20:42 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, Have you tried all the kernels in your grub menu? | 20:42 |
| Surkow|laptop | I have installed mint 15 and ubuntu 13.10 - both refuse to boot from new installs. | 20:42 |
| reisio | MVanDruff: awe, that wrapped after 'laid', thought it was going to be a happy story :p | 20:42 |
| reisio | MVanDruff: what's the problem? | 20:42 |
| Surkow|laptop | there are no older kernels in grub | 20:42 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, Ah, new installs failing. | 20:43 |
| Surkow|laptop | it's a dell xps 13 laptop which was working fine with ubutu 13.04 | 20:43 |
| Surkow|laptop | yes | 20:43 |
| Surkow|laptop | any linux distro with a new kernel seems to fail | 20:43 |
| wafflejock | yeah basically he keeps running into the same can't find his drive by uuid problem | 20:43 |
| wafflejock | found a script that apparently used blkid and was supposed to fix the boot problems but ran to no avail | 20:43 |
| Surkow|laptop | mint gives me: kernel panic-not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0), while ubuntu tells me "ALERT /dev/diskby-uuid/ does not exist. Dropping to shell" | 20:44 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, how big is the HD? | 20:44 |
| Surkow|laptop | I have checked grub and it boots from the correct partition | 20:44 |
| Surkow|laptop | 250GB | 20:44 |
| Surkow|laptop | SSD drive, samsung 830 | 20:44 |
| FourFire | hello hitsujiTMO I am here again | 20:45 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, I forget the instance, but there are times when grub can't read past 100 or so gigs, try a smaller partition | 20:45 |
| hitsujiTMO | Surkow|laptop: can you tell us what mountpoints are currently mounted: mount | 20:45 |
| FourFire | I generated the second file like you asked me to yesterday | 20:45 |
| hitsujiTMO | FourFire: can you pastebin them both again please | 20:46 |
| MVanDruff | did they remove my opensource drivers in the update | 20:46 |
| Surkow|laptop | Beldar, hitsujiTMO http://pastebin.com/hZg2yskh - this shows the partitions detected while running the ubuntu live usb image. | 20:46 |
| Surkow|laptop | I am currently stuck in busybox after grub failed to boot ubuntu | 20:46 |
| FourFire | hitsujiTMO: Old | 20:46 |
| FourFire | http://pastebin.com/fNaD621G | 20:47 |
| FourFire | hitsujiTMO: new http://pastebin.com/pbCMV7q3 | 20:47 |
| hitsujiTMO | Surkow|laptop: mount should work in busybox. can you tell us if /dev is mounted | 20:47 |
| Surkow|laptop | hitsujiTMO, /dev shows me tty1-63 (and more variations), ram, vcsa and many other random things. It doesn't show any discs | 20:48 |
| Sach | Upgraded to 13.04. USB mouse works but not the touchpad. Any ideas? | 20:48 |
| Luxilius | need help im noob how to protect ubuntu 12.04 LTS desktop . every time someone with MITM spy me. please how to protect my system. | 20:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | Surkow|laptop: sounds like the kernel does not support your chipset/sata controller | 20:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | Surkow|laptop: what chipset do you have? | 20:49 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, Did this computer come with W7? | 20:49 |
| aguitel | any tips to install epson scanner cx 5600 ? | 20:49 |
| Surkow|laptop | Beldar, yes. hitsujiTMO I'll have to figure that out. It worked fine with 13.10 | 20:50 |
| geekmasterflash | Luxilius, Why do you believe you are being the target of a man in the middle? | 20:50 |
| Surkow|laptop | it does not use uefi, but has a normal bios | 20:50 |
| Surkow|laptop | *13.04 | 20:50 |
| geekmasterflash | Luxilius, And by definition, it's between you and whom you are connecting to | 20:50 |
| Sach | Problem fixed. I needed sudo modprobe -r psmouse sudo modprobe psmouse | 20:51 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, I don't know what question hitsujiTMO asked you, mine was did this come with W7? | 20:51 |
| brian___ | why might I not be able to login to a remote server with ssh -T, but can without? | 20:51 |
| Surkow|laptop | Beldar, yes it came with windows 7 and still contains it. Linux is part of an extended partition. | 20:51 |
| === eniac is now known as ENIAC | ||
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, It is installed as efi, there is some problem there, the boot script is not showing a gpt detected, but I suspect it has a gpt partition table. | 20:53 |
| brian___ | i can ssh with root into the box, but the second i put -T flag on, i get a time out. Any ideas? | 20:54 |
| hitsujiTMO | FourFire: this is the diff of whats in the old but not the new: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6480980/ | 20:54 |
| zykotick9 | brian___: if you can connect as "root" your setup is VERY broken... | 20:54 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, A ubuntu efi install has to have a efi boot partition you don;t have one | 20:54 |
| Surkow|laptop | Beldar, it uses an older bios. But you are thinking ...ah | 20:54 |
| Surkow|laptop | that explains it | 20:54 |
| brian___ | it's for a VM | 20:54 |
| brian___ | a local vm, and it's not MY setup, it's password less root with authorized keys | 20:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | FourFire: a lot of it is version changes so might not be so good to go on | 20:55 |
| dman777_alter | how can I install python 2.7.5 without removing 2.6.5? | 20:56 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, I have no idea of a fix though, I'm not really up on this area, the sda1 is a fat it looks like a uefi computer, except the W7 is a msdos install, rather strange really. | 20:57 |
| motaka2 | I try to install sqlite for php and I get this error: http://codepaste.net/3gmco1 | 20:57 |
| motaka2 | can anyone help me? | 20:58 |
| Surkow|laptop | Beldar, the first partition is the dell utility partition | 20:58 |
| Surkow|laptop | i.e. dell special tools that you can't delete for warranty reasons | 20:58 |
| MVanDruff | waffle what was the command you had me run to check pci devices | 20:58 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, Right but it is a fat, msdos install have the firmware in a ntfs. | 20:58 |
| brian___ | dman777_alter: you can install multiple pythons. | 20:59 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, uefi's have that fat as the first partition, thats why it looks strange to me. | 20:59 |
| zykotick9 | Surkow|laptop: i supported compaq machines for many years. that's an OLD system - if it has that horrible utilities partition... | 20:59 |
| Surkow|laptop | zykotick9, the device is one year old | 20:59 |
| Surkow|laptop | it's a top of the line Dell xps 13 ;) | 21:00 |
| zykotick9 | Surkow|laptop: really? so that's HP really... best of luck regardless. | 21:00 |
| Surkow|laptop | thanks :D. I spent three full days on this already. I might attempt a clean 13.04 install to see if the problem goes away. | 21:00 |
| zykotick9 | Surkow|laptop: honest to goodness, some compaq machines had a bios/utilties partition - it was madness, but those would be "antiques" in computer terms... | 21:01 |
| hitsujiTMO | Beldar: efi system partition have a type of ef00 (or ef in mbr) the part has a type of de | 21:01 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, Is grub booting the windows? | 21:01 |
| FourFire | hitsujiTMO: yeah I guess I don't need any of the Linux kernels or header files older than what I'm using right now | 21:01 |
| Surkow|laptop | Beldar, I have been reading some ubuntu documentation. Yes it boots windows fine. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 21:01 |
| Surkow|laptop | "- If the BIOS is NOT set up to boot the CD in EFI mode, or if the disk is not 64-bit, then you will see the screen below: " | 21:01 |
| FourFire | should I just delete those by hand? | 21:01 |
| Surkow|laptop | so it doesn't boot into efi mode | 21:01 |
| Surkow|laptop | (since I see the purple screen) | 21:02 |
| Surkow|laptop | zykotick9, I have supported a couple hundred dell computers at a service desk | 21:02 |
| Surkow|laptop | luckily I never had to debug linux with it ;) | 21:02 |
| zykotick9 | Surkow|laptop: lol, i worked for Dell too... </ot> | 21:03 |
| dman777_alter | how can I do a apt-get pretend to see what version python it would pull in? | 21:03 |
| hitsujiTMO | dman777_alter: -s | 21:03 |
| Surkow|laptop | I'll take a break from this and attempt a clean 13.04 install. I'll annoy you guys later on again ;) | 21:04 |
| hitsujiTMO | dman777_alter: or you can see the package info with: apt-cache show <packagename> | 21:04 |
| dman777_alter | hitsujiTMO: thanks | 21:04 |

| ThomasBS | i've installed ZNC on my server, how do I open the 6667 port? :( I've searched and searched .. Using 13.10 | 21:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | Beldar: thats on sdb which i presume is the install media | 21:07 |
| Beldar | hitsujiTMO, lok in the grub config area | 21:08 |
| Beldar | efi all over the place | 21:08 |
| geekmasterflash | ThomasBS, The port is likely open on your computer less you have installed a firewall software | 21:08 |
| geekmasterflash | ThomasBS, You probably need to open it on your router/modem | 21:09 |
| zykotick9 | ThomasBS: have you added firewall permissions? if not, then run the service = port opened | 21:09 |
| geekmasterflash | ThomasBS, Or port forward | 21:09 |
| ThomasBS | yes I've added firewall permissions | 21:09 |
| ThomasBS | with the iptables.firewall.rules | 21:09 |
| ThomasBS | do i need to reboot the server if I just the rules file? | 21:09 |
| ThomasBS | if I changed* | 21:10 |
| geekmasterflash | ThomasBS, Shouldn't need a reboot. Maybe just a restart of the service | 21:10 |
| GTB3NW | Hi I'm currently having issues with any desktop environment running under any ubuntu distro | 21:10 |
| hitsujiTMO | Beldar: they're just search params, theres entries for both bios + efi for those: --hint-bios=hd0,msdos6 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos6 | 21:10 |
| GTB3NW | I use a R.A.T 9 mouse but the tutorials to fix "known" issues with the mouse do not fix my issue | 21:11 |
| GTB3NW | nor is it as described in any of the tutorials | 21:11 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, What is your issue, exactly? | 21:11 |
| GTB3NW | essentially I cannot interact with any windows (xfwm, gnome etc) | 21:11 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, because? | 21:12 |
| GTB3NW | I have no idea, that's why I'm here | 21:12 |
| GTB3NW | I've tried other mice as well.. | 21:12 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, Keyboard not working either? | 21:12 |
| GTB3NW | keyboard is A-OK | 21:12 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, USB? | 21:12 |
| GTB3NW | yes | 21:13 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, Both are? | 21:13 |
| GTB3NW | Correct | 21:13 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, Switch them | 21:13 |
| GTB3NW | I have | 21:13 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, See if you've got dead ports | 21:13 |
| GTB3NW | Ports are okay as well | 21:13 |
| GTB3NW | I have some ID's on the mouse for buttons which are "unknown" | 21:13 |
| wesley_ | Holler, is there someone dutch who can help me ? | 21:14 |
| GTB3NW | the guides to fix the mouse say add the ID's, however there's only 1 ID | 21:14 |
| GTB3NW | but.. lots of them | 21:14 |
| MonkeyDust | !nl | 21:14 |
| ubottu | Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl | 21:14 |
| GTB3NW | as in it displays the same ID button lots of times | 21:14 |
| Beldar | hitsujiTMO, Your right I just ran the old bootscript in trusty which I'm on right now I have all msdos, an I see the same notations. | 21:14 |
| Beldar | and* | 21:14 |
| GTB3NW | May I link you the guide geekmasterflash | 21:14 |
| GTB3NW | ? | 21:14 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, According to my googlefu, the RAT mouse may require a customer xorg.conf file | 21:14 |
| geekmasterflash | custom* | 21:15 |
| GTB3NW | Xmodmap you mean? | 21:15 |
| geekmasterflash | No | 21:15 |
| geekmasterflash | I mean xorg | 21:15 |
| geekmasterflash | http://fcns.eu/2011/04/01/cyborg-rat-7-mouse-under-linux/ | 21:15 |
| zykotick9 | geekmasterflash: you might want to consider getting some startpage-fu https://startpage.com/ same results as google, without the tracking ;) | 21:16 |
| kry_ | Thanks for your help again | 21:16 |
| kry_ | bye | 21:16 |
| GTB3NW | geekmasterflash, thanks for that link | 21:16 |
| GTB3NW | anyway I can add that to my liveCD? | 21:17 |
| GTB3NW | currently can't get onto a browser if I'm in the OS | 21:17 |
| GTB3NW | let alone get to that and copy and paste haha | 21:17 |
| Danato | how do i fix an over sensitive touchpad? it taps when i dont want to, making me close and click things accidentally all the time | 21:18 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, The problem with xorg configs is that often they require a system reboot to take effect. One of the rare cases in Linux | 21:18 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, Chances are from LiveCD it wouldn't take? | 21:18 |
| GTB3NW | hence why I want to install directly onto the liveCD rather than boot in then do it | 21:18 |
| Kry | Good night | 21:19 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, Oh, I misunderstood | 21:19 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, I suppose that would work but you might want to ask someone else | 21:19 |
| GTB3NW | I'm in my windows OS atm, wondering if I can just drag that somewhere onto my disk | 21:19 |
| GTB3NW | no worries :) | 21:19 |
| GTB3NW | thanks for your help | 21:19 |
| GTB3NW | appreciated | 21:19 |
| Beldar | Surkow|laptop, My argument on gpt or efi is incorrect as far as the partition table or the sda1 partition or in general. | 21:20 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, Well, if you can find /etc/X11/xorg.conf in windows | 21:20 |
| geekmasterflash | GTB3NW, You can edit it and save it from there as well | 21:20 |
| GTB3NW | I wish it were simple but it wont | 21:20 |
| zykotick9 | geekmasterflash: editing xorg.conf from windows - that would be cute... or would it? | 21:20 |
| GTB3NW | screw it, I'll go install and hope for the best | 21:20 |

| hisham | hi pleas How do I run a calculator in the Linux system | 21:24 |
| zykotick9 | hisham: try xcalc | 21:25 |
| Mage_Dude | zykotick9: I've got a vanilla server install and am using some configuration management tools (ansible) and want to be able to give certain team members access to some of the managemetn tools (like upgrades) but not allow them the keys to the kingdom. | 21:25 |
| Screwba | all: is there a way to install heimdal-clients without it prompting for a realm name? I was thinking of a --no-config option to apt-get but... | 21:25 |
| hitsujiTMO | kisham: there's also gnome-calculator | 21:25 |
| zykotick9 | Mage_Dude: it can be done, probably through sudoers somehow. best of luck! i've got nothing further, sorry. | 21:25 |
| reisio | hisham: 'bc' is nice if you like terms | 21:26 |
| hitsujiTMO | Mage_Dude: you limit sudo to a set of apps for specific users/groups | 21:26 |

| He4dShOt | hi | 21:29 |
| He4dShOt | how can I have an external drive with ext4 to automount like my ntfs drive does? | 21:30 |
| === b0xaa is now known as b0x | ||
| hitsujiTMO | heavystorm: | 21:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | He4dShOt: you need to add an entry into fstab for it | 21:30 |
| He4dShOt | hitsujiTMO, I added it, but still no automount | 21:31 |
| reisio | He4dShOt: probably would work fine if you hadn't altered /etc/fstab | 21:31 |
| zykotick9 | hitsujiTMO: really gnome/gvfs doesn't automount ext drives automatically... lame... | 21:31 |
| reisio | it does :) | 21:31 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: i'd think so. | 21:31 |
| reisio | you probably accidentally told it not to by altering fstab | 21:31 |
| hitsujiTMO | o.) really ? | 21:31 |
| reisio | you thought Unix systems had an automounter for foreign FSs but not native? :p | 21:32 |
| gassho | a/oha | 21:32 |
| reisio | a\oha | 21:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | He4dShOt: try adding the options user,auto | 21:32 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: i believed it, for a moment... with gnome anything is possible ;) | 21:32 |
| reisio | He4dShOt: if you really want it auto mounted on _insertion_, then do not list it in fstab | 21:32 |
| reisio | zykotick9: heheheh | 21:32 |
| He4dShOt | reisio, I altered fstab because it wouldn't automount | 21:33 |
| dho | anybody have suggestions on how in the world to get non-stripped base libraries? | 21:33 |
| reisio | He4dShOt: that was the wrong course of action ;) | 21:33 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: middle mouse click, is going away. so really, anything is possible ;) | 21:33 |
| reisio | zykotick9: in gnome? | 21:33 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: ya | 21:33 |
| reisio | 'cause Mac OS hasn't middle mice! | 21:33 |
| * reisio rolls eyes | 21:33 | |
| hitsujiTMO | He4dShOt: do you want to auto mount it permanently? or will you be removing the drive? | 21:33 |
| Gerbi | hi! Sorry X-chat make me come here, godd night everybody | 21:34 |
| He4dShOt | hitsujiTMO, I will power on the drive only when I need it | 21:34 |
| lonewulf85 | My Acer AO722 fn+dimmer button does not work but the volume does same set of buttons the arrow keys. | 21:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | He4dShOt: then it should not be in fstab alright. | 21:35 |
| zykotick9 | hitsujiTMO: OR in fstab with noauto and user ;) | 21:36 |
| He4dShOt | hitsujiTMO, reisio, so what should i do? | 21:37 |
| reisio | He4dShOt: you should figure out why it isn't mounting | 21:37 |
| trism | dho: some packages have a -dbg variant, otherwise usually ddebs.ubuntu.com, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash#Debug_Symbol_Packages | 21:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | He4dShOt: do what zykotick9 suggests add the options noauto,user to fsbab entry | 21:37 |
| zykotick9 | He4dShOt: that WON'T automount the drive! | 21:38 |
| zykotick9 | He4dShOt: it would - not automount the drive, but let users mount it, without sudo. | 21:39 |
| lonewulf85 | AO722 no dim when told to please help I am running ubuntu 12.04 | 21:39 |
| reisio | if it's not automounting, it might not do anything with fstab, either | 21:39 |
| He4dShOt | I think I'm missing something here... | 21:39 |
| zykotick9 | reisio: the fstab is an alternative to the automounter... mutually exclusive i believe... | 21:40 |
| reisio | zykotick9: I think I already said that | 21:43 |
| He4dShOt | reisio, maybe is because it's 4TB? | 21:43 |
| reisio | He4dShOt: maybe if you have other smaller drives that work, sure | 21:44 |

| hitsujiTMO | andrewwibi: and did you install ubuntu with csm enabled? | 22:03 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: see if that fixes your problem | 22:04 |
| Ilmen | I guess it means there is a problem with my screen? | 22:04 |
| andrewwibi | hmm i never heard of that, is that an option in the installer? csm was enabled when installed | 22:04 |
| HexSquid | OK folks - I figure I'll reboot and see if gnome appears | 22:04 |
| andrewwibi | i tried running boot-repair and it complains about GPT but i have boot-bios flagged in the first paritition | 22:04 |

| Ademan | so console-kit-daemon is currently taking up 3.0GB of swap on my machine, 12.04 64bit... what in the actual heck?! Only 2.0MB is actually resident, so I really don't know why it's consuming so much swap... I found a few old bugs but nothing seems to have been resolved, this is a desktop so it's my understanding I need console-kit-daemon, any ideas? | 22:10 |
| arvut | hitsujiTMO: do you know where keymaps are stored? I am in no need to configure the keyboard for the whole ubuntu login. just the terminal that I login to with ssh | 22:10 |
| trism | arvut: you might just need to install the console-data package | 22:10 |
| arvut | trism: loadkeys is installed, so I should be able to use it, if I can find the keymaps | 22:10 |
| trism | arvut: which seem to be in console-data | 22:11 |
| trism | arvut: but it is in universe so generally not installed by default | 22:11 |
| hitsujiTMO | arvut: fraid not, i just use the pagage congurator | 22:11 |
| arvut | trism: well, it is installed on this machine, an old 10.04 32bit install running on a perhaps 8 year old hardware | 22:11 |
| trism | arvut: oh yes it probably would have been then...I see /usr/share/keymaps/* in that package on 13.10 | 22:12 |
| arvut | k | 22:12 |
| geekmasterflash | HexSquid, Try apt-get remove gdm, apt-get install gdm and dpkg-reconfigure gdm | 22:12 |
| Rallias | Is there a maximum length I can give an interface name? | 22:12 |
| arvut | there was no keymaps folder in /usr/share in this install tho | 22:13 |

| CrazyZurfer | no | 22:14 |

| hitsujiTMO | CrazyZurfer: you mean the -h flag? | 22:14 |
| CrazyZurfer | hitsujiTMO: might be | 22:14 |
| CrazyZurfer | how's that | 22:14 |
| arvut | some programs require --help for help contents. also see "man command" where command is the command you want help with | 22:15 |

| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: can you get us the gdm logs then please. should be somewhere in /var/log | 22:17 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: I'll take a look | 22:17 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: you can install pastebinit and use that to paste the logs | 22:18 |

| HexSquid | Ok will do | 22:19 |
| arvut | draken: ls -Al | 22:19 |
| draken | thx | 22:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: the logs i'm interested in right now are Xorg.0.log and there should be a log or folder containing logs that begin with gdm | 22:19 |
| arvut | draken: or do you want a list of all files and folders in your filesystem? du -h / | 22:19 |
| arvut | draken: you can run "du -sh ." if you just want to list the size of the folder you're in. | 22:20 |
| draken | yes.. | 22:20 |
| arvut | draken: du -h / > ~/output.file | 22:21 |
| arvut | should create a pretty long list | 22:21 |
| draken | thx.. thas it | 22:21 |
| arvut | =) | 22:22 |
| arvut | why do you want a list of the whole filesystem anyway? | 22:22 |
| draken | a want a list of mp3 | 22:22 |
| andrewwibi | anyone have any tips for ubuntu uefi issues? does not want to boot after installed, first partition is boot-bios flagged | 22:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | draken, arvut, i'd use: sudo du -h --one-file-system / > ~/output.file to avoid the virtual filesystems like /dev and /proc and get ALL folders | 22:23 |
| arvut | draken: du -h / | grep *.mp3 | 22:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | andrewwibi: are you in a live cd atm? | 22:23 |
| andrewwibi | yes | 22:24 |
| arvut | you actually have to use sudo to run du? | 22:24 |
| arvut | or is it simply to get access to the folders that are read-protected for normal users? | 22:24 |
| arvut | like /root | 22:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | arvut: yes if you want it to follow folders that are not traversable by your user | 22:25 |
| syntac | i have two computers running ubuntu. is it possible to start a second X session on my remote machine and have it tunneled to my local machine on vt8? (X is running locally on vt7) | 22:25 |
| hitsujiTMO | draken: there's also: find / -name *.mp3 | 22:25 |
| arvut | hitsujiTMO: yeah, find might do the job better actually | 22:27 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: not knowing which one to pick, this one looked interesting: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481390/ | 22:31 |
| geekmasterflash | HexSquid, You had more than one Xorg.0.log ? | 22:32 |
| HexSquid | Er... that's looking in /log/gdm/ | 22:32 |

| HexSquid | geekmasterflash: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481404/ | 22:33 |
| geekmasterflash | HexSquid, What happens if you do startx? | 22:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: that just says that X is closing cleanly without any errors so its looks to be a problem with gdm | 22:35 |
| __raven | possible to resize the "crypt-luks" partition or will it become broken? | 22:36 |
| hitsujiTMO | __raven: not sure about luks but in the general rules for encrypted partitions say no | 22:36 |
| tsnyph | Just a quick query about the ufw that comes with ubuntu. How effective is it? Does it block all the main ports that could be expoited? or do I have to add ports to it to block? | 22:37 |
| __raven | hitsujiTMO: is this a lvm resize or how to do that? | 22:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | __raven: yes you need to resize the lvm, then you cna resize the contained partitions. have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=726724 it seems to be possible but its a fairly dangerous process | 22:38 |
| __raven | hitsujiTMO: mounted or on live system? | 22:39 |
| dreamy_ | hi, does anyone knows why i dont got voice on #httpd | 22:39 |
| dreamy_ | ? | 22:39 |

| dreamy_ | hitsujiTMO, i did a temporary register? that wont do for today? | 22:40 |

| CrazyZurfer | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481484/ | 22:47 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | geekmasterflash: it came in a tar.gz file, i extracted it and tried to run the launch_pcsx2_linux.sh file | 22:48 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | which is what i assume i'm supposed to do | 22:48 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | also i haven't installed any libraries or anything really | 22:48 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, What you are seeing is the source complaining that expected libraries are not there or are old | 22:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: can you try: sudo mv /etc/fonts/conf.d/65-khmer.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d/65-khmer.conf.disabled | 22:49 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 22:49 |
| stevecam | GuybrushThreepwo, pretty old program tries to access old libs | 22:49 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 22:49 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, 64-bit? | 22:49 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | yes | 22:49 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Yeah, that wont happen. | 22:50 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, PCSX2 is 32 bit only | 22:50 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, It cant find any libraries likely because you have 64 bit libs | 22:50 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | so it's not possible to install 32 bit ones..? | 22:50 |
| hitsujiTMO | tb01110100: gpick | 22:50 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: here is another from /gdm http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481493/ if it means anything | 22:50 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, It's possible, yes. I think it would be sudo apt-get install multiarch-support | 22:51 |
| tb01110100 | hitsujiTMO: Thank you so much. | 22:51 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, But there is a simple way to do it too, as PCSX2 has a PPA | 22:51 |
| djeimsyxuis | hey | 22:51 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, https://launchpad.net/~gregory-hainaut/+archive/pcsx2.official.ppa | 22:51 |
| djeimsyxuis | is there a program that opens .mm (mindmap) files for ubuntu? | 22:52 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: I'll try | 22:52 |
| tsnyph | hitsujiTMO, what is the difference between deny and reject settings in ufw? | 22:52 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, I'd recommend getting multiarch support then adding that PPA | 22:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | andrewwibi: your hard drive is too big to install with csm. you have to install as uefi | 22:52 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | so sudo apt-get install multiarch-support? | 22:52 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: Moved | 22:54 |
| hitsujiTMO | tsnyph: i'm not sure tbh | 22:54 |
| aaaabbcc | hello, is it normal for a fresh install of ubuntu to eat 20-50% CPU in idle? | 22:54 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: try and reboot now | 22:54 |
| tsnyph | hitsujiTMO, a quick google search revealed the answer :P | 22:55 |
| tsnyph | "deny" uses the DROP iptables target, which silently discards incoming packets. | 22:55 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: ok rebooting now, thanks, see you in a moment | 22:56 |
| tsnyph | "reject" uses the REJECT iptables target, which sends back an error packet to the sender of the rejected packet. | 22:56 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Yeah give that a shot. Might be a different command for 12.04 | 22:56 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, But can't hurt to try. | 22:56 |
| hitsujiTMO | tsnyph: ahh i see. i always use deny never reject. | 22:56 |
| tsnyph | yeah metoo | 22:56 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaaabbcc: possibly. what cpu do you have? | 22:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | sudo apt-get install multiarch-support <- it already has it | 22:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | er | 22:57 |
| lar1991 | alright fellas! anyone fancy lending me a hand here | 22:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | it cicnt copy...but yeah | 22:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | it auto-installs that package i guess | 22:57 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, K, then try using that PPA | 22:57 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, https://launchpad.net/~gregory-hainaut/+archive/pcsx2.official.ppa | 22:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | What am I clicking on exactly? | 22:58 |
| aaaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, a phenom 1100T (6 cores at 3.3Ghz) | 22:58 |
| tsnyph | "deny" will keep the program waiting until the connection attempt times out, some short time later. | 22:58 |
| tsnyph | "reject" will produce an immediate and very informative "Connection refused" message. | 22:58 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, It's the offical PCSX2 PPA | 22:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaaabbcc: and whats the output of: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep MHz | 22:58 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Which will allow you to install PCSX2 via apt-get | 22:58 |
| aaaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, 800 x 6 | 22:59 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: I'm afraid that didn't work either | 22:59 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | I don't see a download link. I see a list of files down below | 22:59 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Have you never added a PPA before? | 22:59 |
| aaaabbcc | made this screenshot earlier http://imagebin.org/279112 | 22:59 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, See the section labeled "Adding this PPA to you system" | 22:59 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaaabbcc: so its using 20-50% of 800MHz .... you cpu is downclocked when its not on heave load. | 23:00 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: can you pastebin that same gdm log again | 23:00 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaaabbcc: s/heave/heavy | 23:00 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: ok if I can remember which one it was | 23:01 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | done | 23:01 |
| TauNeutrino | hey penguin lovers | 23:01 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: can you pastebin the output of: ls -l /var/log | 23:01 |
| CrazyZurfer | I'm receiving erros on my ppa's and cannot install software from the ubuntu's software center :( here's my apt-get update http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481484/ | 23:02 |
| TauNeutrino | when I download some pdf, for example, I search via google with it an then I click on the link, but it first loads the whole document with the pdf viewer, but I want it to download it to my pc not just open it slowly in the viewer | 23:02 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | sudo apt-get install pcsx2? | 23:03 |
| TauNeutrino | when I do right click and "save as" it only downloads the url | 23:03 |
| aaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, sorry, my system crashed | 23:03 |
| hitsujiTMO | CrazyZurfer: cn you try changing mirrors | 23:03 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Alright now do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pcsx2-unstable | 23:04 |
| aaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, well, the problem is that it's slow, it hangs a lot | 23:04 |
| xangua | TauNeutrino: google chrome and firefox have an internal pdf-reader | 23:04 |
| aaabbcc | like the mouse freezes constantly and then there's the crashes... | 23:04 |
| TauNeutrino | yeees but it loads it very slowly ;( | 23:04 |
| TauNeutrino | I want it to direcly download it | 23:04 |
| HexSquid | ok | 23:04 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaabbcc: can you install: indicator-cpufreq then reboot and use that to set your cpu on performance and see if you get the same stalling/hanging | 23:05 |
| aaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, sure | 23:05 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaabbcc: you will need to reboot after isntalling it. | 23:05 |
| aaabbcc | ok | 23:05 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | is it true that pcsx2 has worse performance in ubuntu than it does in windows? | 23:06 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | just curious | 23:06 |
| TauNeutrino | ok seems to work with wget | 23:06 |
| TauNeutrino | 8 hours | 23:06 |
| TauNeutrino | O_O | 23:06 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, I guess? I have only run it on something of a beastly machine | 23:06 |
| aaabbcc | rebooting | 23:06 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, The real problem is that there are some plugins missing on the Linux version | 23:06 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Which means some games may not work | 23:06 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: If this worked ... http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481577/ | 23:06 |
| HexSquid | that was ls -l | pastebinit | 23:07 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, As far as performance... well I do fine but my machine is sort of highend | 23:07 |
| choiceuser | i love pp | 23:07 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | well, in windows, for example, final fantasy 12 tends to lag slightly at times, but is still playable | 23:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: cool, so: ls -l /var/log/gdm | pastebinit | 23:08 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, I am playing FF12 now | 23:08 |
| HexSquid | ok | 23:08 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, On hardware render, I never get any lag. | 23:08 |

| syzo | hey, so I'm getting frame tearing while playing games and watching videos (and anything else probably); using an AMD 6970 with default drivers on xubuntu 13.04. Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this? | 23:09 |
| aaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, I installed it, now what? | 23:09 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | Alright, well, that's setup | 23:09 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | Now I have to try running it | 23:09 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: http://past.ubuntu.com/6481589/ | 23:09 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | Another question: Does ubuntu install default drivers for graphics and such? I assume it does | 23:09 |
| eb0t | /mouse enable | 23:10 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481589/ sorry | 23:10 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaabbcc: in top right corder you should have a new icon for the cpu. set that to performance | 23:10 |
| stevecam | /doesnt need spaces | 23:10 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Easy way to tell: go to system settings->Details | 23:10 |
| geekmasterflash | Info should be in graphics | 23:11 |
| stevecam | eb0t, type // at the start of your conversation | 23:11 |
| aguitel | any tips to install epson scanner cx 5600 ? | 23:11 |

| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: pastebinit /var/log/gdm/0-greeter.log && pastebinit /var/log/gdm/0.log && pastebinit /var/log/gdm/0-slave.log | 23:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaabbcc: then i doubt its the cpu causing th issue. can you pastebin the output of the command: dmesg | 23:12 |
| aaabbcc | like 70% at times | 23:12 |

| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: what ubuntu version are you on? | 23:14 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | 12.04 LTS 64bit | 23:14 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: and you're looking to game? | 23:14 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | I have windows on my other partition, but I'd prefer to have the emulator on this one too since I use it more | 23:15 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: because you'll most likely need to install fglrx (which I don't advise you to do) OR use this ppa https://launchpad.net/~pali/+archive/graphics-drivers | 23:16 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: and if you do add that ppa I linked, you'll have hardware video decode support that supports certain video formats (like h264 for e.g.) | 23:16 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | so the default driver isn't enough? | 23:16 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481614/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481615/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6481616/ | 23:17 |
| HexSquid | Pastebinit is pretty amazing | 23:17 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: the default open source driver in ubuntu's repos isn't enough. fglrx is proprietary and usually installed if one wants to do gaming, BUT, has glitches and might cause your system to crash. That ppa I linked has the open source driver, but it's updated (latest) along with mesa. | 23:17 |
| === choiceuser is now known as garshasp | ||
| hitsujiTMO | aaabbcc: can you also pastebin /var/log/syslog | 23:18 |
| aaabbcc | sure | 23:18 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, AMD/ATI's opensource driver should do okay with PCSx2 | 23:18 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, But if you wanna go with steam or modern gaming | 23:18 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, You'll probably want the proprietary driver | 23:18 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: I recommend you add that ppa I linked, run apt-get update then apt-get dist-upgrade and after that logout, log back in. And if you don't have kernel 3.11 or 3.12, install that too. | 23:19 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | I remember one time I updated my graphics driver and when I rebooted ubuntu didn't want to display anything on screen anymore | 23:19 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | i had to reinstall | 23:19 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: though those kernels are "supported here" | 23:19 |
| Ari-Yang | * aren't | 23:19 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: sudo apt-get install fglrx <--- use at your own risk | 23:20 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: was there a kernel update before the issue? | 23:21 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | Is there a way to recover if something goes wrong? | 23:21 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Shouldn't be exceedingly hard. Reinstallation for a driver issue is usually over kill | 23:21 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: probably, but might be a hassle... | 23:22 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Most times you can fix it by switching back to the FOSS driver. | 23:22 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | geekmasterflash: But I didn't know how to fix it at the time | 23:22 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: but if you boot using fglrx, you might get a crash, again, install it at your own risk | 23:22 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Only have one computer? | 23:22 |
| Ari-Yang | GuybrushThreepwo: tbh I recommend you upgrade to kernel 3.12 and install that ppa I linked | 23:22 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: There were updates which required a password prompt. | 23:22 |
| hitsujiTMO | HexSquid: can you reboot to grub and try an older kernel | 23:23 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | I only have one computer yes, but it's dual booted. My second computer has hardware issues and it doesn't always load right | 23:23 |

| === cyclicflux is now known as Guest50255 | ||
| arvut | andrerics: afaik, you have to install windows first. then ubuntu. | 23:30 |
| arvut | as windows can't read any of the unix filesystems without extra software | 23:30 |
| aaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, I see, thanks for the help tho | 23:31 |
| reisio | arvut: it's easier if you do, but you don't have to, and that isn't the reason :D | 23:31 |
| HexSquid | hitsujiTMO: tried all the other kernals, same problem | 23:31 |
| arvut | reisio: well, its annoying to have to reinstall the bootloader again after windows screws it up | 23:32 |
| aaabbcc | hitsujiTMO, about that indicator-cpufreq, what would be the default behaviour? "On demand"? or should I just uninstall it? | 23:32 |
| hitsujiTMO | aaabbcc: on demand | 23:32 |
| reisio | arvut: it's annoying to have windows installed | 23:32 |
| aaabbcc | thanks | 23:32 |
| arvut | but I think win8 can have linux integrated in its bootloader now, not sure tho as I don't have any experience running it myself | 23:32 |

| TauNeutrino | but not linux? | 23:34 |
| TauNeutrino | ehh yes, I mean Mac OS | 23:34 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, It's telling you that you didn't define the path to an ISO image | 23:34 |
| arvut | daze_: you get a choice to install ubuntu side by side with windows, it will then create a boot option to boot windows in grub2 | 23:34 |
| reisio | TauNeutrino: it's based on FreeBSD, a BSD, which is a Unix | 23:34 |
| hitsujiTMO | TauNeutrino: thats OT, but darwin is built from freebsd + mach | 23:34 |
| TauNeutrino | darwin?? | 23:35 |
| reisio | TauNeutrino: "Linux" (that is, GNU/Linux) is a Unix clone, a de facto Unix | 23:35 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | geekmasterflash: , I think my FF12 file is an .IMG file | 23:35 |
| hitsujiTMO | TauNeutrino: darwin is the osx kernel | 23:35 |
| reisio | TauNeutrino: darwin is all the parts of Mac OS that Apple doesn't own exclusively | 23:35 |
| TauNeutrino | ahh ok | 23:35 |
| reisio | it's not the kernel | 23:35 |
| reisio | it's what I said :p | 23:35 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, So make it an ISO or find an iso version. | 23:35 |
| geekmasterflash | err | 23:35 |
| geekmasterflash | I mean | 23:35 |

| hitsujiTMO | reisio: sorry your right. | 23:37 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Potentially, what you are getting is a warning that you don't have an ISO path. If you have it on DVD you can play direct from the disc provided it's written to the disc and not just a datafile on the disc | 23:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | TauNeutrino best to take this convo to #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:37 |
| TauNeutrino | hm ok | 23:37 |
| arvut | reisio: or maybe its the tech-savvy that chose linux while the ppl that "just want it to work" as so many mac users say, run OSX. | 23:37 |
| reisio | hitsujiTMO: apology accepted! You are pardoned :p | 23:37 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, I take that back, apparently the play from DVD plugin doesnt work | 23:37 |
| reisio | arvut: nope | 23:38 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, It has to be an ISO file. | 23:38 |
| arvut | if I ever bought a mac, I'd install gentoo on it | 23:38 |
| reisio | you can pay someone to install GNU/Linux for you and have it "just work" the same way you can pay to have Mac OS installed for you and just work | 23:38 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | how to confert img to iso then? | 23:38 |

| * reisio basks in the warmth of himself | 23:38 | |

| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, ccd2iso name-of-file.img name-of-file.iso ? | 23:39 |
| Beldar | If one wants to not watch their computer and worry better apple than MS | 23:39 |
| geekmasterflash | reisio, He wants to use PCSX2 to play a ps2 game | 23:39 |
| krabador | hi, people, i've fsck every boot, how can i solve this' | 23:39 |
| reisio | arvut: mmm, but if the choice is between an OS that is preinstalled and one that is not, then the choice is not between Mac OS and GNU/Linux, as both can be bought preinstalled | 23:39 |
| geekmasterflash | reisio, But the plugin for playing from DVD doesnt exist on the Linux version | 23:39 |
| geekmasterflash | reisio, but PCSX2 can play direct from an iso image | 23:40 |
| Beldar | krabador, It is in fstab now | 23:40 |
| reisio | geekmasterflash: what happens when you tell it the .img is a .iso? | 23:40 |
| geekmasterflash | reisio, Crashes, apparently. | 23:40 |
| reisio | oh right it's not you :p | 23:40 |
| reisio | well that isn't indicative of much, except that the program is not well made | 23:40 |
| arvut | reisio: true, but I doubt apple offers a gnu/linux preinstall on their hardware ;) you have to pay your friendly pc-guy to do that for ya ;) | 23:40 |
| Beldar | krabador, Yuo have been running a fsck right? | 23:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | GuybrushThreepwo: usually a .img can be renamed to .iso .... both are typically a raw copy of the filesystem | 23:41 |
| reisio | arvut: paying either way | 23:41 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | ccd2iso IOPRP300.IMG IOPRP300.ISO Unrecognized sector mode (0) at sector 0! | 23:41 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | Maybe the file just got corrupted | 23:41 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | and i need to redownload it | 23:41 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | :/ | 23:41 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | it worked as img just fine before. and it's one of the extensions pcsx2 accepts | 23:42 |
| krabador | Beldar, it's in fstab to check every boot? | 23:42 |
| reisio | GuybrushThreepwo: then it should work now without "converting" it | 23:42 |
| Beldar | krabador, You have run a fsck right? | 23:42 |
| tehlulzfor | @seen | 23:42 |
| krabador | Beldar, for / , i've 1 at pass | 23:42 |
| === c_smith_away is now known as c_smith | ||
| krabador | Beldar, i've it every boot | 23:43 |
| krabador | not scheduled | 23:43 |
| krabador | every boot | 23:43 |
| Beldar | krabador, Where did you run the fsck from? | 23:43 |
| === c_smith is now known as GNU-brony-is-wei | ||

| andrerics | reisio: I tried this. UbuntuStudio 13.10 not recognized Windows 8.1 so I shrinked a Windows 8.1 partition and installed UbuntuStudio 13.10 manually. After this i runned Boot Repair but only UbuntuStudio 13.10 appeared at GRUB. There are tutorials and documentation of how install ubuntu 13.10 in UEFI systems, but i don't know if my computer uses UEFI. | 23:44 |
| Beldar | krabador, upgrade within the release or to another release? | 23:44 |
| krabador | Beldar, i haven't run it, later the latest apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 23:44 |
| krabador | Beldar, not, i've a 13.10, fresh installation, from the day it comes out | 23:45 |
| Beldar | krabador, OKay back to the question, when you ran the fsck how did you do it? | 23:45 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | umm | 23:48 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | should i be able to run pcsx2 with no disk without selecting plugins or anything? | 23:49 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | cause that gives me an error too | 23:49 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | i do have a bios | 23:49 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, How are you trying to do this | 23:49 |
| bugtraq | hello gays | 23:49 |
| reisio | suppa homie | 23:49 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | I just selected "No Disk" | 23:49 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | under the iso menu | 23:50 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Because when I run it, CDVD->ISOSelector->(path/to/iso) | 23:50 |
| Beldar | krabador, Since you ran a fsck it changed fstab, ubuntu does not have fsck as part of a every 30 boot anymore. http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-linux/88818-disabling-fsck-startup.html | 23:50 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Yeah no. | 23:50 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | idk, i wanted to see if it would do anything | 23:50 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | >_> | 23:50 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | I guess I'll find an actual game to test | 23:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | andrerics: are you on the live cd now? | 23:51 |

| GuybrushThreepwo | CDVD->ISOSelector->Browse is what i did before. tried full and fast | 23:54 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Okay, and what happened? | 23:54 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, and it was a .iso image, right? | 23:54 |
| Beldar | krabador, Honestly if it is running every boot and it is not the fstab check your HD for errors with the smartcheck. | 23:55 |
| krabador | Beldar, smartcheck? | 23:55 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | well for starters it said the supported files are iso mdf nrg bin img .dump, but that img to iso converter didnt even work so im guessing my game was corrupted | 23:55 |
| === swaagie is now known as swaagie[zz] | ||
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Ok, so get an iso. Lots of plugins are not on the linux version. I have never gotten anything but .iso files to load properly. | 23:56 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Make sure you have an .iso, that you set CDVD to ISO (and not plugin or no disc) | 23:57 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Then boot full | 23:57 |
| Beldar | krabador, The disks app has a smartcheck top right corner gear dropdown. | 23:57 |
| Hetal | Can someone develop a script that checks if a program died and it restarts it if it died | 23:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | ccd2iso IOPRP300.IMG IOPRP300.ISO Unrecognized sector mode (0) at sector 0! | 23:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | I did show you that, right? | 23:57 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | it didn't work | 23:57 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, You did, and my answer is the same | 23:57 |
| geekmasterflash | GuybrushThreepwo, Get an iso file. | 23:57 |
| reisio | GuybrushThreepwo: what does 'file IOPRP300.IMG' say? | 23:58 |
| GuybrushThreepwo | IOPRP300.IMG: data | 23:58 |
| Beldar | krabador, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T. | 23:58 |
| reisio | GuybrushThreepwo: strings IOPRP300.IMG | head | pastebinit | 23:59 |
