| === boris is now known as borisOZ | ||
| bekks | pozz: Either use nohup or disown | 01:06 |
| pozz | Basically I want to dissociate the application and terminal. | 01:06 |
| zykotick9 | pozz: check out tmux or screen | 01:06 |
| kepka | pozz: use "bg" | 01:07 |
| bekks | kepka: Closing the terminal will kill the background process too | 01:07 |
| pozz | nohup or disown eh... for example, gksudo gedit file.ext disown? | 01:07 |
| pozz | how does bg work? | 01:07 |
| pozz | screen does not work, the application fails to load with that command | 01:07 |
| pozz | what is tmux? | 01:08 |
| zykotick9 | pozz: ignore it, if this is GUI - i have no idea | 01:08 |
| pozz | yeah, its a gui | 01:08 |
| amagee | since upgrading to ubuntu 13.10 i've been unable to play dvds. vlc says: ""Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd:///dev/dvd'. Check the log for details.". I've done the restricted formats stuff mentioned here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs but it hasn't seemed to make any difference. Ideas? | 01:08 |
| kepka | ok, with GUI, just run it as "gui-app &" | 01:08 |
| kepka | pozz: for the bg, read http://pwet.fr/man/linux/commandes/posix/bg | 01:09 |
| pozz | kepka, for example: "gksudo gedit file.ext gui-app &"? | 01:10 |
| kepka | pozz: yep | 01:10 |
| pozz | k will try that | 01:10 |
| bekks | pozz: gksudo gedit file.ext & | 01:11 |
| kepka | pozz: or for example "firefox &", then you can close the terminal and off you go. | 01:11 |
| pozz | gui-app & fails to work | 01:11 |
| pozz | oh, I see what you are saying now | 01:11 |
| pozz | now that does not work, when I close the terminal the application will also close | 01:11 |
| kepka | pozz: have you tried? | 01:12 |
| bekks | kepka: Thats why he says it. | 01:12 |
| === LoganG|off is now known as LoganG | ||
| pozz | yes, I have tried | 01:12 |
| kepka | pozz: I've got ubuntu here, KDE. just tried it myself. works for me. | 01:13 |
| pozz | Not sure what to say, it does not work | 01:14 |
| kepka | what's the app? | 01:15 |
| bekks | kepka: gedit. | 01:15 |
| bekks | kepka: The command in question is: gksudo gedit file.ext & | 01:15 |
| === Nym is now known as Guest53906 | ||
| pozz | correct | 01:16 |
| kepka | ok, try this: sudo '/usr/bin/gedit' file.ext & | 01:18 |
| bekks | Dont use sudo on graphical applications. | 01:19 |
| bekks | Use gksudo instead. | 01:19 |
| kepka | sure, why not. | 01:19 |
| sam113101 | kepka: why not? | 01:19 |
| sam113101 | oops | 01:19 |
| sam113101 | bekks: why not? | 01:19 |
| zykotick9 | !gksudo | 01:20 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 01:20 |
| bekks | Because sudo isnot designed to work correctly using graphical applications. | 01:20 |
| pozz | kapka, did not work either | 01:20 |
| PatrickDickey | kepka: because occasionally sudo doesn't play nice with Gnome. For Gnome, you want to use gksudo, and for KDE, I believe it's ksudo. sudo is mainly for command line only. | 01:20 |
| zykotick9 | pozz: fyi, using sudo with gui apps, can break your user account... | 01:20 |
| _root_ | any take on this http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?11,245107 | 01:20 |

| kepka | pozz: I just ran this command: gksudo '/usr/bin/gedit' /etc/hosts & | 01:23 |
| kepka | and it worked for me | 01:23 |
| kepka | try it | 01:23 |
| pozz | I do. it opens... then I close the terminal and gedit closes as well | 01:23 |
| sam113101 | lol, reminds me that I ran into problems using nautilus with sudo | 01:23 |
| sam113101 | what's the ICEauthority file? | 01:24 |
| pozz | i did* i mean | 01:24 |
| kepka | dude, totally wierd. It stays open here, even if I close the terminal | 01:24 |
| pozz | I wish mine would do that | 01:24 |
| sam113101 | what does? | 01:24 |
| zykotick9 | pozz: can't you use alt+f2 or something? | 01:24 |
| kepka | pozz: you're not missing the & at the end, right? | 01:24 |
| pozz | I am trying to create a shortcut for an application to the launcher | 01:25 |
| YaMoonSun | How to I end a process, or pause it? I've been running rarcrack overnight, and now I want to use my PC but the CPU is being used excessively | 01:25 |
| zykotick9 | pozz: then a terminal shouldn't be involved??? | 01:25 |
| pozz | kepka, I have '&' at the end. one of the first things I tryed by myself... | 01:25 |
| kepka | then I am fresh out of ideas. Anyone else? | 01:26 |
| sam113101 | pozz: what are you trying to do? | 01:26 |
| pozz | zykotick9, kind of a weird application that after being installed, does not show up in the typical place applications install at. As a result, I am creating a .desktop file in the usr/share/applications folder | 01:27 |
| sam113101 | pozz: if you want to run something from the terminal and not have it exit when you exit the terminal, use &! | 01:27 |
| sam113101 | for example, gedit &! | 01:27 |
| pozz | sam113101, that does not work | 01:27 |
| sam113101 | &| works as well | 01:27 |
| pozz | it lets me enter a new line in, but if I close the terminal the application also closes | 01:28 |
| zykotick9 | sam113101: & should NOT be required in a .desktop file... | 01:28 |
| kepka | so, | 01:28 |
| pozz | wait... are you saying this: "&" or this "&!"? | 01:28 |
| sam113101 | pozz: sorry, seems to be a zsh-only feature | 01:28 |
| bekks | pozz: & | 01:28 |
| zykotick9 | bekks: & should NOT be required in a .desktop file... | 01:29 |
| pozz | okay, "&" does not work, have not tryed "&!" before | 01:29 |
| bekks | zykotick9: I know, yes. | 01:29 |
| bekks | pozz: &! is invalid. | 01:29 |
| sam113101 | pozz: &! only works in zsh, sorry, but you can still use disown in bash | 01:29 |
| sam113101 | gedit & | 01:30 |
| sam113101 | disown %jobnumber | 01:30 |
| sam113101 | or | 01:30 |
| sam113101 | disown pid | 01:30 |
| pozz | i have two computers with ubuntu 12.04 where "&" just lets me type another line in, but the terminal is still associated with the application. | 01:30 |
| * YaMoonSun wonders if his question was over-looked. | 01:30 | |
| === megabitdragon is now known as zz_megabitdragon | ||
| bekks | pozz: Thats the expected behaviour, since & puts a process into the background, not disowning it. | 01:31 |
| pozz | disown pid? ... how do I auto put the PID in? | 01:31 |
| fede__ | yes | 01:31 |
| bekks | pozz: pidof | 01:31 |
| sam113101 | pozz: when you run "gedit &" it gives you the job number and pid | 01:31 |
| sam113101 | "[1] 3864 | 01:31 |

| wolfspy | cool | 02:24 |
| Diamondcite | There are lots of ones around, lots of zeros too. | 02:24 |
| awesomess3 | If I upgraded 10.04 to 13.10, would I be impressed? | 02:24 |
| Megabyte | Anyway | 02:24 |
| Megabyte | I have installed safe-rm | 02:25 |
| Megabyte | But... it does not work. | 02:25 |
| wolfspy | awesomess3: nope | 02:25 |
| Diamondcite | awesomess3: Mildly impressive, but good job on the update. | 02:25 |
| wolfspy | Megabyte: write it in one line | 02:25 |
| Megabyte | wolfspy, Impossible... | 02:25 |
| === coryn|drunk is now known as coryn|notDrunk | ||
| wolfspy | Megabyte: your question for us, not the commands | 02:25 |
| Diamondcite | awesomess3: Next, try Ubuntu 8.10 to 13.10 in one reboot =P | 02:25 |
| awesomess3 | Diamondcite, I remember just trying to update my current 10.04 and it couldn't even reboot. | 02:26 |
| awesomess3 | If I'm going to do a 13.10, it's gonna be clean. | 02:26 |
| Diamondcite | Things break, learning how to fix them is part of the learning. | 02:26 |
| awesomess3 | The thing I learned was: "if it's not broken, don't fix it." | 02:27 |
| Diamondcite | lol, sounds like me. | 02:27 |
| Diamondcite | And it hurts so bad when I update ^_^ | 02:27 |
| amagee | 13.04 - 13.10 was one of the first ubuntu upgrades i've done that didn't massively break things | 02:27 |
| Megabyte | I got safe-rm to prevent accidental deletion of content after a scary accident, but it doesn't seem to work. I've tested it creating a folder on my hard drive, and using rm (in the driver that should be protected) successfully deletes it. I've tried to add the line both locally, at .safe-rm, and globally. Can anyone tell me what is going on? "The full path is: /media/x/Dados pessoais (Seagate)/*". Thank you in advance! | 02:27 |
| Megabyte | I have also tried setting up an alias to rm: "alias rm='safe-rm'," to no avail. | 02:29 |
| YaMoonSun | If I start a process via terminal, and I close the terminal, how do I close the process? It's seemingly in the background using 100% of my cpu's resources. | 02:29 |
| Megabyte | YaMoon, killall -9 process_name [kills *all the processes with the same name.] | 02:29 |
| === don is now known as Guest10418 | ||
| Guest10418 | hi | 02:30 |
| jmgk | hey Guest10418 | 02:30 |
| wolfspy | hi | 02:30 |
| Diamondcite | YaMoonSun: If the command didn't work, use something like 'top | 02:31 |
| Megabyte | wolfspy, If you don't know the answer, setting my normal user account to access the removable device I have as read-only would be nice, too. | 02:31 |
| Diamondcite | ' to find the PID, and do a kill -9 PIDHERE | 02:31 |
| YaMoonSun | It seeming worked, but I looked through killall --help and there's no -9. | 02:32 |
| Megabyte | YaMoonSun, It means "highest priority" | 02:32 |
| YaMoonSun | Works without it too? Only as sudo though? | 02:32 |
| YaMoonSun | Oh, I see I see. | 02:32 |
| Diamondcite | YaMoonSun: Oh, the -9 is actually a short form for sending SIGKILL to the process | 02:32 |
| zykotick9 | Megabyte: fyi, suggesting use -9 before a regular kill, is a bad suggestion... | 02:33 |
| Megabyte | zykotick9, Well, he did want to kill the process... | 02:33 |
| Megabyte | and not using it might postpone the killing for god knows how long | 02:33 |
| Diamondcite | But a normal kill would try to SIGINT first, which lets is close properly, Instead of putting a brick wall infront of it | 02:33 |
| Megabyte | Killing a process with kill is a bad idea anyway, so | 02:33 |
| axizor | getting a new APU - any problems with amd 13.4 drivers on 12.04? | 02:33 |
| zykotick9 | Diamondcite: +1 | 02:34 |
| Megabyte | Diamondcite, I guess you could help me, couldn't you? | 02:34 |
| jmgk | nope axizor | 02:34 |
| Diamondcite | Megabyte: I haven't even tried safe-rm before, | 02:34 |
| YaMoonSun | It managed to work both ways, with or without the minus -9, thanks a bunch. | 02:34 |
| axizor | do I have to do a command line install or does it show up in settings and do auto | 02:35 |
| Megabyte | YaMoonSun, You're welcome. :) | 02:35 |
| YaMoonSun | I had three brute force processes running, was quite ridiculous | 02:35 |
| Megabyte | Diamondcite, How can I set up my hard drive (external usb) to mount so it's read-only for me, as a regular user, and read-write to root? | 02:35 |
| Megabyte | YaMoonSun, Was it a decryption program? | 02:36 |
| Diamondcite | Megabyte: I would have to investigate how ubuntu mounts removeable media. | 02:36 |
| Megabyte | Diamondcite, Isn't there an universal, text-based solution? | 02:36 |
| Diamondcite | Megabyte: Hrm.. sudo chown root:root /media/removeableitem && sudo chmod 775 /media/removeableitem | 02:37 |
| PatrickDickey | grache28: Sorry, my computer went wacky for a bit there. Are the cards the same? | 02:37 |
| Diamondcite | Megabyte: the problem is that the command there is one time.. | 02:37 |
| Megabyte | Diamondcite, I didn't get your last sentence | 02:38 |
| Diamondcite | Megabyte: I made many assumptions, assuming you want to do it only once and have it back to normal behaviour next time? | 02:39 |
| axizor | just curious - how much more demanding is unity over xcfe | 02:39 |
| axizor | xfce* | 02:39 |
| axizor | memory wise | 02:39 |
| Diamondcite | No idea, but xfce is a VERY light interface | 02:40 |
| axizor | I'm running a xfce lubuntu box right now on some really limited hw and I can tell it does better than unity | 02:40 |
| Diamondcite | xfce could run on systems with only 128MB of ram.. I doubt unity can ^_^ | 02:40 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Diamondcite: Just sayin', that would be painful. Why not LXDE? Especially with Lubuntu's enhancements for older machines with 13.10 | 02:41 |
| axizor | I have a Athlon 2 box with only a gig of ram and even with xcfe on lubuntu 13.10 and it's slooow | 02:42 |
| axizor | that's only running a samba server, utorrent server, and dlna server | 02:43 |
| * PatrickDickey is running lubuntu on a new machine right now. | 02:43 | |
| Diamondcite | SonikkuAmerica: In extreme lack of resources, lxde, xfce, fluxbox are pretty much all light weight | 02:43 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Diamondcite: Although I wouldn't depend on XFCE in a 128 MB situation, for the record | 02:44 |
| axizor | I wouldn't either ^ | 02:44 |
| axizor | if you're only running on 128mb you shouldn't be running gui at all | 02:44 |
| SonikkuAmerica | axizor: That, of course, is only a matter of opinion. | 02:45 |
| axizor | of course | 02:45 |
| === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 | ||
| SonikkuAmerica | axizor: After all, there are things like JWM, Fluxbox, etc. - even e17 can run on that much | 02:46 |
| ab` | my amd radeon card is enabled again when i wake my system from hibernation. i want it always disabled. how do i accomplish this? should i rip it out from my laptop? | 02:46 |
| axizor | I don't know, if you're doing multi tasking and running a lot of background processes, 128mb won't be fun | 02:47 |
| SonikkuAmerica | axizor: True... but I haven't had much of an issue with that... I have 8 GB now, but I worked with 256 MB and later 1 GB | 02:48 |
| axizor | I'm having a hard time just on a recycled PC with 1 | 02:48 |
| axizor | I'll be happy when my cheap little amd APU build and 8gb of ram comes in | 02:48 |
| axizor | Throw ina. Coupl | 02:48 |

| Diamondcite | 1080p mkv? Using a PS3 media server? | 02:51 |
| Diamondcite | (Or Universal Media server) | 02:51 |
| PatrickDickey | ab`: What other graphics card do you have? | 02:51 |
| axizor | Yes Diamondcite | 02:51 |
| Diamondcite | axizor: Always thought that it needs quite a bit of power from the transcoding system | 02:52 |
| axizor | I did too - my little dual core Athlon and gig of ram seems to do the job | 02:52 |
| ab` | PatrickDickey: intel hd 3000, its more than enough for me since i don't do any graphic intensive works | 02:53 |
| Diamondcite | But what REALLY eats at the CPU is setting a bandwidth limit | 02:53 |
| Diamondcite | axizor: Just transcoding itself to PS3 compatible doesn't hurt so bad. | 02:53 |
| PatrickDickey | ab`: You should be able to disable one of them in BIOS. I'm guessing one came with the laptop, and one is an addon. | 02:54 |
| axizor | have no idea what it's at, I just starred it, pointed it to my share folder, and left | 02:54 |

| Megabyte | All right. | 02:55 |
| Megabyte | How do I allow someone to write and read from a device, but not delete files? | 02:55 |
| Megabyte | (just create, not delete) | 02:55 |
| axizor | Diamondcite: haven't had any skipping yet | 02:55 |
| PatrickDickey | !permissions | Megabyte | 02:56 |
| ubottu | Megabyte: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 02:56 |
| Diamondcite | Megabyte: How about taking away execute permission from "other" for the rm command? | 02:56 |
| ab` | PatrickDickey: yeah, hd 3000 is integrated and radeon is discrete. okay, i am gonna fiddle with the BIOS now, see if something is there. | 02:56 |
| Megabyte | Diamondcite, but in that case wouldn't I be in the "group" of "other" of the rm command? | 02:57 |
| Megabyte | Diamondcite, and this would also apply system-wide | 02:57 |
| Megabyte | I just want to protect my external hdd | 02:57 |
| PatrickDickey | Megabyte: From the page I linked to: "write restricts or allows creating new files or deleting files in the directory. (Caution: write access for a directory allows deleting of files in the directory even if the user does not have write permissions for the file!)" | 02:58 |
| wolfspy | lol, I crashed a terminator window by tragging text from firefox over it | 02:59 |
| Megabyte | PatrickDickey, I want to create, but not delete | 02:59 |
| amagee | Megabyte: you mean you want other people to have physical access to your external hdd but not be able to delete files from it? | 02:59 |
| Megabyte | amagee, I'm the only person here, so that would mean just me | 03:00 |
| Megabyte | but yeah | 03:00 |
| Megabyte | that's pretty much it | 03:00 |
| amagee | Megabyte: oh ok, so you're just using it connected to one computer? | 03:00 |
| Megabyte | amagee, yes | 03:00 |
| PatrickDickey | Megabyte: I'm confused. If you only have one user on the computer, then this is sort of a moot point. | 03:00 |
| Megabyte | PatrickDickey, No, it isn't. I almost wiped out my own files by accident because I removed a symbolic link with rm -rf. | 03:01 |
| Megabyte | PatrickDickey, there's too much content in my drive, I had time to stop this | 03:01 |
| Megabyte | PatrickDickey, that's against this kind of deletion I want protection | 03:02 |
| wolfspy | hi badass | 03:02 |
| badass | hi | 03:02 |
| amagee | Megabyte: yeah i'm not sure exactly, maybe look at this? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/869536/linux-directory-permissions-read-write-but-not-delete | 03:03 |
| Megabyte | I'll take a look, thanks | 03:03 |
| amagee | my guess is you won't get a really practical solution though | 03:03 |
| amagee | since even if you could turn off delete you could still overwrite a file with nothing and lose the content anyway | 03:03 |
| ab` | PatrickDickey: sadly, there is no such option in BIOS | 03:04 |
| saiarcot895 | Megabyte: I don't think you have to use -f to remove a symbolic link, do you? (Same applies for the -r switch, unless you are including other directories as well) | 03:04 |
| amagee | and then you could try turning off write completely but then you'll have to change the settings every time you do want to write/update something on the drive and you'll get annoyed or forget anyway :P | 03:04 |
| Megabyte | saiarcot895, It was out of habit, and I want to stop it | 03:04 |
| Megabyte | (Create files, once written, they are read only, but CAN be deleted by owner, but not others.) | 03:04 |
| Megabyte | That's moot too | 03:04 |
| Megabyte | because if I'm not the owner of a file, I cannot modify it | 03:05 |
| PatrickDickey | ab`: Is the Radeon a removable card? You said Discrete, which doesn't tell me that. If it is removable, then I'd pull it out. But if you're going to have to rip the entire laptop apart, I'm not sure if the benefits outweight the costs. | 03:05 |
| Megabyte | (add) | 03:05 |
| amagee | and if you have important data you want to back it up since the drive might fail anyway | 03:06 |
| ab` | PatrickDickey: i think it's definitely removable but i have to get inside of the laptop, and i don't have such experiences. will it be easy to do it? i have a dell vostro 3450 | 03:07 |

| Sian | hey guys, I'm trying to install ffmpeg in this computer, but listed between the packages that will be installed, there are some nvidia, this makes no sense, I don't even have a nvidia(I only have the integrated gpu that comes with the mobo), how can I avoid this? | 04:36 |
| buu | Sian: What is the exact package name? | 04:36 |
| buu | WiGust: I don't think 'useradd' supports /etc/environment and friends.. | 04:36 |
| buu | WiGust: Try adduser | 04:37 |
| Sian | buu, nvidia-settings-319 nvidia-settings-319-updates nvidia-319-updates | 04:37 |
| buu | Sian: Now that is odd | 04:38 |
| buu | Sian: what does dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia; show? | 04:38 |
| Sian | buu, I also think they crashed my system recently, as after installing them a week ago(ffmpeg) and after rebooting I couldn't do nothing after log (just mouse), after uninstalling nvidia I today noticed that I noticed I no longer had ffmpeg installed | 04:39 |
| buu | Sian: Honestly I always just compile ffmpeg myself.. | 04:39 |
| buu | Avoids silliness like avprobe | 04:39 |
| WiGust | buu: oh my god. Thanks, i'll try | 04:40 |
| Sian | buu, I'm curious, what is that avprobe you are talking about? | 04:40 |
| buu | Sian: A project forked from ffmpeg | 04:40 |
| Sian | you mean avconv? | 04:40 |
| Sian | buu, well, I'm surprised, aparently it's xorg-edgers ruinning the party, though I had already removed the ppa http://paste.ubuntu.com/6502600/ | 04:42 |
| xangua | Sian: did you remove the PPA with ppa-purge¿ | 04:42 |
| dfcnvt | xangua: Found it, it's glipper. All I had to do was 'pkill glipper'. It goes away. Thanks anyway. | 04:42 |
| MrMonkey31 | uh. I wound up with 2 ext3 partitions with the same UUID. should I proceed to use gparted to change the UUID of the one I don't intend to ever boot? | 04:43 |
| Sian | xangua, no, I couldn't, after waiting like 10 minutes it always says that apt-get update couldn't be completed. I used software and updates | 04:43 |
| Diplomatico | Hello, I just changed my root password using "sudo passwd" command and now commands don't ask for password anymore...How can I change it? | 04:45 |
| amagee | Diplomatico: you mean sudo commands don't ask for your sudo password? | 04:45 |
| === Jan11 is now known as ON1 | ||
| Diplomatico | That's it, for example apt-get should ask for password and doesn't ask for it. | 04:46 |
| buu | Diplomatico: Sudo will remember your password for 5-10 minutes | 04:46 |
| zykotick9 | !noroot | Diplomatico | 04:46 |
| ubottu | Diplomatico: We do not support setting a root password. You're free to do it on your own machine, but please don't offer instructions on how to set a root password or ask for help with setting it. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 04:46 |
| amagee | Diplomatico: yeah, what buu said.. it will go back to normal if you wait a little while | 04:46 |
| zykotick9 | buu: if you're root, sudo is redundant... | 04:47 |
| Diplomatico | Ok, obviously I got some concept wrong. | 04:47 |
| buu | Diplomatico: What does 'whoami' print? | 04:47 |
| Diplomatico | let me see | 04:47 |
| Diplomatico | it prints my username. | 04:48 |
| zykotick9 | buu: asking if prompt is $ or # might be faster/easier ;) | 04:48 |
| zykotick9 | rootlock | 04:48 |
| buu | Diplomatico: Which means you aren't logged in as 'root', sudo merely lets you run a single command as root, however by default ubuntu doesn't let you log in as root. | 04:48 |
| buu | Diplomatico: And see earlier comment about sudo remembering password | 04:49 |
| Diplomatico | Solved, you were right, amagee, now is back asking for password... | 04:49 |
| Diplomatico | Thank you all for your prompt help!!! | 04:49 |
| Sian | well, I don't even. ppa-purge tells there's no ppa named xorg-edgers | 04:50 |
| zykotick9 | Sian: if you manually removed it, that would make sense. you might want to re-add it, then use the proper ppa-purge to get rid of it. | 04:50 |
| Sian | zykotick9, but last time I had it I couldn't remove it as apt-get update wouldn't be completed(that's what ppa-purge said) | 04:51 |
| Eartaker | anyone been able to fix the ipv6 issue with apt-get | 04:51 |
| === AndresSM is now known as AndresSM_away | ||
| zykotick9 | Sian: that's bad news... i got nothin' then. best of luck. | 04:52 |
| Sian | zykotick9, thanks. I will try again either way | 04:52 |
| lotuspsychje | morning to all | 04:53 |
| kalakjsd | hi all, i am using ubuntu 12.04 32 bit LTS, i have a normal CPU, 2 gb ram, it is 64 bit capable, what are the advantages of 64 bit OS as compared with 32 bit OS, apart from memory addressing, which i will not upgrade, 8gb max. motherboard can provide, but i am happy with 2 gb, should i install 64 bit ubuntu | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | kalakjsd, 4 gigs? stick with 32 bit. | 04:55 |
| cfhowlett | kalakjsd, for that matter, with only 2 gigs, you'll probably get better results with xubuntu or lubuntu | 04:55 |
| kalakjsd | cfhowlett: okay, but what are the advantages of 64 bit processor then | 04:55 |
| zykotick9 | kalakjsd: besides the increase in memory, encoding media and number-crunching are the advantages of 64bit. you're probably best to stick with 32bit with 2GB | 04:55 |
| MrMonkey31 | lotuspsychje: Hai!!! | 04:55 |
| dwxreaper | kalakjsd: 64bit is faster | 04:56 |
| kalakjsd | zykotick9: no, i don't need media encoding or something | 04:56 |
| zykotick9 | dwxreaper: not really... | 04:56 |
| lotuspsychje | i agree with dwxreaper , if the machine can run 64bit why not take advantage of it? | 04:56 |
| dwxreaper | the CPU moves data quicker | 04:56 |
| kalakjsd | dwxreaper: 64 bit is faster, will i get performance improvement in my system, | 04:56 |
| lotuspsychje | of course | 04:57 |
| kalakjsd | with same specification, not memory upgradation | 04:57 |
| zykotick9 | lotuspsychje: because the overhead to address 64bits means that 2GB will be "smaller" on 64bit then on 32bit... kalakjsd | 04:57 |
| kalakjsd | i don't need exxtra memory, i am happy with 2 GB ram | 04:57 |
| lotuspsychje | kalakjsd: i run 13.04 64bit on an ssd, and goes rocketfast | 04:57 |
| dwxreaper | just use 64bit if you have 64bit hardware | 04:58 |
| lotuspsychje | dwxreaper: agree | 04:58 |
| Eartaker | sudo /etc/gai.conf | 04:58 |
| Eartaker | oops | 04:58 |
| kalakjsd | lotuspsychje: i don't have SSD, i have simple HDD with 7200 RPM | 04:58 |
| lotuspsychje | kalakjsd: like dwxreaper says, if you payed for 64bit hardware, why not install ubuntu 64bit? | 04:59 |
| kalakjsd | dwxreaper: thanks, because hardware has capability, then why not | 04:59 |
| zykotick9 | kalakjsd: fyi, your getting some bad info from some of these posts... 64bit is NOT faster, for most things. oh, and the OTHER advantage is being able to use dates beyond 2025 (or something) | 04:59 |
| Dax_1x0 | @_@ | 05:00 |
| kalakjsd | zykotick9: no, i was just asking of performance benefits for a normal user, apart from memory addressing | 05:00 |
| cfhowlett | kalakjsd, I'm running similar specs. Even 32 bit is painfully slow. xubuntu and lubuntu run much better. As always, YMMV | 05:01 |
| kalakjsd | zykotick9: because all of us doesn't do media encoding or something like that | 05:01 |
| zykotick9 | kalakjsd: media encoding ;) and number crunching / simulation. that's about it. | 05:01 |
| Dax_1x0 | http://i.imgflip.com/3kmz0.jpg | 05:01 |
| kalakjsd | cfhowlett: yes, i agree, chrome takes more time than WIndows, with less addons compared with windows | 05:02 |
| zykotick9 | kalakjsd: and as i mentioned, if you go 64bit your 2BG will be smaller then if you used 32bit. PLUS there are still some issues with running some programs on 64bit systems (though not many any more) | 05:02 |
| cfhowlett | Dax_1x0, nice find! | 05:02 |
| amagee | i haven't had any issues running everything on 64bit in years | 05:02 |
| kalakjsd | cfhowlett: hmm, if a program is 32 bit, then it can be run on 64 bit?? | 05:03 |
| kalakjsd | reverse is not true, i think | 05:03 |
| lotuspsychje | Unless you have specific reasons to choose 32-bit, we recommend 64-bit to utilise the full capacity of your hardware | 05:03 |
| kalakjsd | so i should opt for 64 bit | 05:03 |
| kalakjsd | lotuspsychje: thanks | 05:03 |

| ubottu | AMD64 and Intel 64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. Consider using 64-bit if your memory ussage exceeds 4GB. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit | 05:04 |
| cfhowlett | kalakjsd, see the ram suggestions? | 05:05 |
| kalakjsd | i have 2 gb of RAM, i upgraded my BIOS version and now ubuntu is showing 1.5 G available, rest is reserved by Bios, :( | 05:05 |

| pero | my oldish dell laptop has been intermittently slowing down to a crawl today - sometimes on i/o operations, and sometimes for no reason at all. running iotop/htop i can see one culprit is policykitd... | 05:09 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: wich ububtu version are you running on it? | 05:09 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: 13.10 | 05:09 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: did it run smooth on it before? | 05:10 |
| pero | yeah, very | 05:10 |
| pero | my load is 4.20 right now and i've got nothing but hexchat and chromium - earlier today it'd get as high as 20 | 05:10 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: any update recently? | 05:11 |
| pero | nah | 05:11 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: not sure, maybe dig around /var/log/syslog looking for errors? | 05:12 |
| _dan_ | so i updated 9.04 -> 9.10... now running sudo do-release-upgrade says No new release found | 05:13 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: maybe create another user and check the load from there, just to test | 05:13 |
| lotuspsychje | _dan_: we can only support versions from topic mate | 05:14 |

| xangua | !eol | _dan_ now you have left 9.10 to 10.04 and 10.04 to 12.04 | 05:14 |
| ubottu | _dan_ now you have left 9.10 to 10.04 and 10.04 to 12.04: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

| Irishluck83 | hello guys | 05:17 |
| lotuspsychje | Irishluck83: welcome what can we do for you? | 05:18 |
| Irishluck83 | just here to chat | 05:18 |
| Irishluck83 | and to help | 05:18 |
| kriskropd | Irishluck83: !ot | 05:18 |
| kriskropd | nvm then :3 | 05:19 |
| luciano | hi | 05:19 |
| Irishluck83 | hi | 05:19 |
| _dan_ | so i followed the direction for 9.04 to 9.10 on that site. it has no instructions past that though | 05:19 |
| _dan_ | O_o | 05:19 |
| luciano | i am in brasil | 05:19 |
| Irishluck83 | hows the weather there luciano | 05:20 |
| dfcnvt | I'm starting to see an incremental amount of program in my task manager (htop)... Know any task manager that will fill in description of what program am I running? | 05:20 |
| lotuspsychje | _dan_: how about installing 12.04 clean | 05:21 |
| zykotick9 | !ot | Irishluck83 | 05:21 |
| ubottu | Irishluck83: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 05:21 |
| InQuIrI | hello | 05:22 |
| kriskropd | _dan_: you will find upgrading from one version of ubuntu to the enxt is not always so smooth - I would highly suggest installing any ubuntu distro clean if older than 12.04 | 05:22 |
| kriskropd | next* | 05:22 |
| InQuIrI | how to create bootable usb on ubuntu? | 05:22 |

| InQuIrI | lotuspsychje: currently i'm on ubuntu | 05:23 |
| InQuIrI | ijust downloaded new distro and i want to burn it in usb. | 05:23 |
| lotuspsychje | InQuIrI: there's a package to create startup disk by default mate | 05:23 |
| Eli-5dce | Hey I'm trying to run Minecraft and it says it's not exicutible I am using OpenJdk Any answers | 05:23 |
| xangua | InQuIrI: use ubuntu disk creator or unetbootin (will erase all the content in the USB stick) | 05:24 |
| luciano | hello all right irishluck83 | 05:24 |
| InQuIrI | thank lotuspsychje and xangua | 05:24 |
| lotuspsychje | Eli-5dce: did you try install playonlinux? | 05:24 |
| Eli-5dce | no. Where do you install it or do you use terminal lotuspsychje | 05:25 |
| lotuspsychje | !info playonlinux | Eli-5dce | 05:25 |
| ubottu | Eli-5dce: playonlinux (source: playonlinux): front-end for Wine. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 4.2.1-1 (saucy), package size 1578 kB, installed size 3954 kB | 05:25 |
| xangua | Eli-5dce: right clic in the binary, properties, mark as executable | 05:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Eli-5dce: not sure minecraft is on the list, but worth a try | 05:25 |
| Eli-5dce | Wait where do I go, to use or install it? | 05:26 |
| Eli-5dce | lotuspsychje? | 05:26 |
| lotuspsychje | Eli-5dce: sudo apt-get install playonlinux (from terminal) | 05:27 |
| Eli-5dce | ok Thx | 05:27 |
| lotuspsychje | Eli-5dce: also try what xangua sugested | 05:27 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: any idea what to look for in syslog? | 05:27 |
| luciano | i am user ubuntu | 05:28 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: i dont think those lines were relevant mate, maybe pastebin the whole log, and describe whats happening to your system once in a while | 05:28 |
| luciano | and the people on in brasil | 05:28 |
| lotuspsychje | !br | luciano | 05:28 |
| ubottu | luciano: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br" sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, use #ubuntu-pt. Obrigada. | 05:28 |
| luciano | br and you | 05:28 |
| _dan_ | aha i found the trick... | 05:30 |
| Eli-5dce | Yes, what xangua said worked | 05:31 |
| lotuspsychje | !cookie | xangua | 05:32 |
| ubottu | xangua: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 05:32 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: there's definitely something in there, this last syslog is much much larger than the others | 05:33 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: /var/log http://pastebin.com/f1EPpLXu | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: lemme take a look | 05:34 |
| pero | yeah the log's too big for pastebin, will upload it somewhere in a sec... | 05:34 |
| davidrsmorris | has anyone used Uzbl here? #uzbl is asleep. When I log out of a Google account in Uzbl and open a new window, I'm logged in again. Has anyone here worked around that? | 05:35 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: no i need /var/log/syslog only mate | 05:35 |
| WiGust | buu: I recreate with adduser, now ok. Thanks. | 05:36 |
| kriskropd | davidrsmorris: i don't use uzbl, but is it clearing your cookies file? also is it reading from cache or actually logged in? | 05:36 |
| IIT | is their any application which convert images into pdf ? | 05:36 |
| cfhowlett | IIT, libreoffice | 05:37 |
| kriskropd | davidrsmorris: im going to try and imitate to see if i get the same reaction from uzb | 05:37 |
| davidrsmorris | kriskropd: I have cleared my cookies, and uzbl doesn't do caching. | 05:37 |
| IIT | cfhowlett, ok | 05:37 |
| cfhowlett | IIT, imagemagick as well | 05:37 |
| lotuspsychje | davidrsmorris: try to login to google with a diff account, and dont store password maybe it will ask yours after again? | 05:38 |
| IIT | cfhowlett, i have like 100 + images and want to combine in a single pdf | 05:38 |
| davidrsmorris | lotuspsychje: yes, I've been changing passwords to get out of logins, but that' can't be The Way... | 05:39 |
| cfhowlett | IIT, ask in #ubuntustudio | 05:39 |
| IIT | cfhowlett, ok | 05:39 |
| lotuspsychje | davidrsmorris: like kriskropd says, there must be something uzbl remembers... | 05:40 |
| kriskropd | davidrsmorris: I don't seem to be getting the same problem when i log out. to be clear i tried using gmail.com and did notice it stored a cookie for my username when i returned to login screen | 05:41 |
| davidrsmorris | kriskropd: hmm, that's unnerving, I'll try and do something that I'd need to be logged in for. | 05:41 |
| IIT | there is a pdf program which comes with kde it name start with k* i don't remember the exact name | 05:41 |
| cfhowlett | IIT, ALL KDE packages start with k :) | 05:42 |
| kriskropd | davidrsmorris: you could try temporarily moving your ~/.local/share/uzbl directory and try it again and see what it does | 05:42 |
| IIT | cfhowlett, he he he | 05:42 |
| lotuspsychje | cfhowlett: lolz | 05:42 |
| davidrsmorris | kriskropd: It only seems to appear logged in when on that initial page | 05:42 |
| cfhowlett | IIT, imagemagick is the package you want | 05:43 |
| IIT | cfhowlett, ok exploring imagemagick | 05:43 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: https://www.dropbox.com/s/94iwyt1aivhm8zg/syslog | 05:44 |
| kriskropd | IIT you can make a pdf from a directory of images using 'convert dir/*.jpg name.pdf' | 05:45 |
| kriskropd | IIT you can alo use '-display 300' to retain image resolution | 05:45 |
| kriskropd | or dpi rather | 05:45 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: it's also apparent that my power adapter is faulty, but that's old news | 05:45 |
| kriskropd | obviously adjusting as you see fit, 300 is decent enough for printing quality though | 05:45 |
| IIT | kriskropd, cool :D | 05:46 |
| davidrsmorris | well, I think it might be something up with the backend, since I can run grep -rnw `locate uzbl` -e [account name] and find nothing. | 05:48 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: thats one huge log, maybe install vim improved with syntax highlight, to see errors in red | 05:48 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: can i grep for something instead? vim gives me migraines | 05:49 |
| lotuspsychje | !info vim-gtk | pero | 05:49 |
| ubottu | pero: vim-gtk (source: vim): Vi IMproved - enhanced vi editor - with GTK2 GUI. In component universe, is extra. Version 2:7.4.000-1ubuntu2 (saucy), package size 972 kB, installed size 2397 kB | 05:49 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: i know what vim is | 05:49 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: im note sure grep can syntax higlight, cause we are not sure what to look for | 05:49 |
| pero | well how does vim know it's an error | 05:50 |
| pero | nevermind, it's vim | 05:50 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: thats what syntax higlight does, shows errors in red from syslog | 05:50 |
| pero | pero: i was thinking it highlights based on a string, and i can just grep that string | 05:51 |
| pero | erm | 05:51 |
| pero | lotus ^^ | 05:51 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: yes, but wich string to search on different errors? | 05:51 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: can i use something else? i'm not a developer and it'll honestly be easier to reinstall than to learn vim | 05:52 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: this is not the default vim, install vim-gtk and it will syntax highlight by default, its easy | 05:53 |
| kriskropd | IIT hey, i've been experimenting a bit with pdf compression, you might be interested in some scripts I wrote, I'll share them, but I haven't determined which is the best. it uses postscript and ghostscript mostly and is intended to be used after building a pdf from imagemagick http://sprunge.us/VRYd | 05:53 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: i did install vim-gtk but i don't see it in dash | 05:53 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: after install vim /var/log/syslog and it should color up | 05:54 |
| IIT | kriskropd, definitely i am interested..!! | 05:54 |
| kriskropd | pero: vim really isn't that difficult to use :x | 05:55 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: nope, no colours | 05:55 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: nevermind | 05:55 |
| zykotick9 | vimtutor can help ;) | 05:55 |
| pero | are you guys joking? it's the equivalent of learning a programming language | 05:55 |
| lotuspsychje | lol? | 05:56 |
| kriskropd | IIT: :) like I said, I haven't picked which is the best yet, ghost script experiments 2 and 3 and postscript experiments 1 and 2 seems to generate similar file sizes, but I haven't done a visual quality check to ascertain all the compression losses yet | 05:56 |
| kriskropd | pero: I fear you have a misguided stigma sorrounding vim :P | 05:56 |
| pero | im not a developer | 05:56 |
| kriskropd | pero: this is definitely the wrong way to use vim, but you know if you hit 'i' you go into insert mode, and its jsut the same as using any other text editor in that mode | 05:57 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: you dont need to be a dev, to use vim | 05:57 |
| pero | i dont think there exists a use case for non-developers to be using ivm | 05:57 |
| IIT | kriskropd, ok :) | 05:58 |
| kriskropd | per then '<Esc>:q!' force quits and '<Esc>:w' write to file | 05:58 |

| kriskropd | pero: convincing you to use vim longterm isn't really the goal here, it sounds like you just need to view a file for some unforseeable syntax | 05:59 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: http://pastebin.com/wtqUftaf | 05:59 |
| * kriskropd wonders if nano might also have the syntax highlighting pero needs | 06:01 | |
| pero | nah, nano doesn't | 06:01 |

| ro9 | hi | 06:03 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: the log is so big lol, cant find errors on first sight, many whoopsies | 06:03 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: http://pastebin.com/wtqUftaf | 06:04 |
| pero | that's the only non-network error message - besides that ext4-fs one i pasted earlier | 06:04 |
| kriskropd | is your disk going bad? | 06:04 |
| kriskropd | erm, sorry, I haven't really been following your issue, pero >_< | 06:05 |
| pero | it's very possible | 06:05 |
| pero | it'a laptop from 2006 | 06:05 |
| lotuspsychje | kriskropd: he has many load on 13.10 recently | 06:05 |
| pero | but yeah, system intermittently slows to a crawl as of yesterday/day before/recently | 06:05 |
| pero | sometimes on i/o, sometimes for no reason at all | 06:05 |
| kriskropd | pero if you run 'vmstat 2' the far right column shows the amount of time your cpu load avg is waiting on your disk | 06:05 |
| kriskropd | pero: maybe that could give you some clues :o no gurantees though | 06:06 |
| pero | well the whole load goes through the roof - iowait, everything - whenever this happens | 06:06 |
| pero | but the disks utility says the disk is healthy | 06:07 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: how about a tail -f /var/log/syslog and mess around with system a bit, see what errors show up in relatime | 06:07 |
| lotuspsychje | *realtime | 06:08 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: already doing that :) | 06:08 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: great | 06:08 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: did you ever had such issues on previous ubuntu versions? | 06:09 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: nah, never | 06:09 |
| pero | it's a dell xps m1210 - it's really well supported. i've never needed a driver since like 8.04 | 06:09 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: sounds maybe like a 13.10 issue then | 06:09 |
| kriskropd | could it be a swap related issue? | 06:10 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: well, i've been on 13.10 since september and this just appeared yesterday | 06:10 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: thats really odd indeed, when not used an update | 06:10 |
| pero | kriskropd: i've got 4gb ram and 8gb swap | 06:10 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: and are you fully updated? | 06:11 |
| pero | yup | 06:11 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: no weird package installs? | 06:11 |
| pero | nah | 06:11 |
| pero | the weirdest things i have are like btsync and everpad | 06:11 |
| kriskropd | how much of your swap is being used ? swap can make your computer cry if your OS starts depending on it too much | 06:11 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: try create another user, see if same load persists | 06:11 |
| pero | kriskropd: 15mb right now | 06:11 |
| kriskropd | oh, psh, ignore me then XD | 06:12 |
| lotuspsychje | anyway bbl breakfast | 06:12 |
| pero | lotuspsychje: thanks for the help | 06:12 |
| lotuspsychje | pero: hope you solve it | 06:12 |
| pero | does ubuntu/linux have a chkdsk-like utility? | 06:13 |
| kriskropd | pero we have fsck in linux | 06:13 |
| kriskropd | pero I can't give you a tutorial on using it :x but I'm sure your favorite search engine will be happy to supply you with more than you wanted to know :x | 06:14 |
| kriskropd | pero: the gist is you cant check a disk that is mounted, so if you want to check your root disk, you will need to use a live CD environment to run fsck from | 06:14 |
| pero | no worries, i can figure it out | 06:14 |
| pero | ahh | 06:15 |
| kriskropd | pero in my experience, database dependant services and memory leaks cause me trouble in regards to load issues | 06:16 |
| === david_ is now known as temp-name0 | ||
| pero | kriskropd: how long do you think fsck will take on a 70gb drive? | 06:17 |
| temp-name0 | I need to edit the xorg.conf file. How to do that w/ Ubuntu? | 06:18 |
| kriskropd | pero im not sure :x depends on how many problems it runs into :P | 06:18 |
| kriskropd | pero: to be fair though, it shouldn't take very long - I think if you come back after 30 minutes and are still waiting, you might want to inspect what is holding up fsck | 06:19 |
| timal170 | i have Ubuntu installed as my main OS but due to reasons like college project i have to install Windows do i have to start from scratch? | 06:19 |
| kriskropd | fsck I'd even say 10 minutes should eb enough time, but I'm really not too familiar with what all determines the speed of fsck (could have nothing to do with RPM for all I know) | 06:20 |
| kriskropd | pero: ^ | 06:20 |
| pero | thx | 06:20 |
| zykotick9 | temp-name0: do you currently have an xorg.conf? what do you need to edit exactly? and lastly, what's your graphics card and/or driver? | 06:20 |
| kriskropd | temp-name0: you can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf with your favorite text editor and sudo or gksudo | 06:21 |
| xangua | timal170: you could use a virtual machine if you want | 06:21 |
| temp-name0 | kriskropd, ls: cannot access /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory | 06:22 |
| zykotick9 | kriskropd: you do realize that xorg.conf isn't there by default right? so your suggestion isn't very helpful. | 06:22 |
| timal170 | xangua VM would not do the trick the software we use for college requires a lot of resources | 06:22 |
| kriskropd | zykotick9: my mistake, it is for me | 06:22 |
| temp-name0 | zykotick9, I am trying to use a nvidia quadro w/ 2 monitors and the 2nd monitor is not being detected via edid. It is showing the wrong resolution. I think if I disable the HorizSync & VertRefresh options in xorg.conf, it will allow me to properly set the resolution... | 06:22 |
| zykotick9 | temp-name0: if you're using nvidia propritary, you should find an nvidia-xconfig program to generate it. "sudo nvidia-xconfig" i believe, good luck. | 06:23 |
| temp-name0 | zykotick9, thanks. I generated it and will test it now. I made the changes. | 06:24 |
| kriskropd | zykotick9: I'm curious, where else is it supposed to be? it seems all my copies of xorg.conf are int hat location | 06:24 |
| kriskropd | in that* | 06:25 |
| zykotick9 | kriskropd: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the path, i'm not sure what your asking... | 06:25 |
| * kriskropd thought xorg.conf was there by default - hasn't had to touch a xorg.conf file in a very-very long time | 06:26 | |
| zykotick9 | kriskropd: xorg.conf hasn't been default for QUITE some time... | 06:26 |

| pero | kriskropd: having a load attack right now - nothing really in the log, but the load is >4 and io read is 40m/s | 06:43 |
| pero | write is fluctuatingbetween 10 and 80m/s | 06:44 |
| pero | kriskropd: swap has been maxed out at 4.7gb as well | 06:44 |
| kriskropd | pero: is it only spiking for a few seconds or does it seem to last about a minute? | 06:45 |
| kriskropd | also, aside fromy our root disk, do you have any other disks mounted? | 06:45 |
| kriskropd | your* | 06:45 |
| pero | kriskropd: it's already been >5 minutes | 06:45 |
| pero | nah, just sda and sdb - this is sdb that /home sits on i believe | 06:46 |
| kriskropd | i once had a 500GB external driv connected over USB, and when updatedb was running i noticed a system wide lagspike that lasted about one minute | 06:46 |
| Sian | Ok, can someone please explain this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/6502888/ I used to have xorg-edgers ppa, but I purged it it pp-purge and made sure to use apt-get update after that and these files still appear, this in itself wouldn't be a problem if ffmpeg didn't ask for them, but it does | 06:46 |
| kriskropd | pero: turned out to just be a trouble of trying to load too much via usb bandwidth,b ut the fact that it affected the whole system was really obnoxious | 06:46 |
| pero | hmm, no that can't be because i don't think sdb can do that i/o | 06:46 |
| pero | sda is a high end samsung ssd and sdb is a 7 year old hitachi 7200rpm i think | 06:47 |
| kriskropd | pero you have htop right? are you sorting by memory usage? | 06:47 |
| kriskropd | pero F6 > MEM% | 06:48 |
| pero | deja-dup monitor is the culprit this time | 06:48 |
| kriskropd | pero: dont just look at the highest, does any process seem to be repeating a lot? | 06:48 |
| pero | flash | 06:49 |
| kriskropd | pero: i could see flash causing trouble if its using swap and swap io is slow | 06:49 |
| kriskropd | pero: I also just looked up deja-dup-monior, scheduled backups? that is sure to cause some load lag of some sort | 06:50 |
| pero | kriskropd: welp, locked up my system and had to hard-powerdown | 06:51 |
| kriskropd | pero: just to confirm, others have reported deja-dup causing problems sucha s yours before http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=293402 | 06:51 |
| kriskropd | pero: you said "this time" was it another process before? | 06:51 |
| pero | yeah | 06:52 |
| kriskropd | also forgive my poor use of punctuation >_< im in half-awake mode (2am after busy day) | 06:52 |
| pero | don't remember which one - some weird daemons that i've never heard of before | 06:52 |
| pero | i've caught 2 processes | 06:53 |
| kriskropd | pero: im increasingly confident that your problem is related to your swap, although I can't tell you much more than that yet | 06:53 |
| kriskropd | pero: by that I mean, your system is crawling because of accessign a bottlenecked swap bandwidth | 06:54 |

| ubottu | fahadash: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/licensing | 06:56 |
| lrvy | hello | 06:57 |
| fahadash | Thank you | 06:57 |
| fahadash | When is the Tablet version going to be released ? | 06:57 |
| pero | kriskropd: thanks for your help - i'll run fsck tomorrow, and if i have to buy a new hdd atleast the timing is good | 06:57 |
| kriskropd | pero im not sure if a new hdd will infact solve anything, I think you simply might not have enough memory to do everything your system is trying to do | 06:58 |
| pero | i have 4gb of ram and am not really doing much except chromium | 06:59 |
| kriskropd | pero: do run fsck, but also see about maybe removing some services you don't need and also maybe using some lighter weight applications | 06:59 |
| zykotick9 | "Ubuntu is as free as we can make it" <- that's a down right lie! that factoid should be edited/removed. | 06:59 |
| pero | kriskropd: how should i go about removing servics? | 06:59 |
| kriskropd | pero: web browsers now days are very expensive, I dont even use chrome or firefox anymore except on rare occasions (tabbed browsing tends to inspire me to create alrge sessions) | 07:00 |
| pero | i recently doubled the ram - while still on 13.10 - and it ran fine with just 2gb | 07:00 |
| kriskropd | large* | 07:00 |
| fahadash | !tablet | 07:00 |
| ubottu | Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch | 07:00 |
| kriskropd | pero I run a custom-ish Ubuntu Minimal with dwm and about 90% of my choice of software runs in a bash shell, but web browsing on my core 2 duo with 4GB of memory still requires me to cross my fingers | 07:01 |
| pero | kriskropd: well, this only began yesterday or so, and about a month ago i had half the ram and 13.10 ran fine | 07:02 |
| kriskropd | pero removing services is as simple as turning them off with chkconfig (google it later :) ) but determining which you need or don't need is a bit more tasking than that | 07:02 |
| xangua | zykotick9: why¿ | 07:02 |
| xangua | that's a down right lie! that factoid should be edited/removed. - why zykotick9 ¿ | 07:02 |
| kriskropd | pero i know chrome and firefox update at a very rapid pace nowdays, did you mayb e get a new update fro chromium that could be related? | 07:02 |
| kriskropd | maybe* | 07:02 |
| pero | nop | 07:02 |
| pero | i updated chromium manually about a month ago from mozilla-security repo to fix an extension bug | 07:03 |
| kriskropd | pero Im sorry I couldn't help you much mroe than that, this really was not a field I could claim expertise on | 07:04 |
| kriskropd | if you try again tomorrow, try an earlier hour, you will hit a more active time zone, likely :) | 07:04 |
| kriskropd | pero: you might also want to watch chromiums built-in processes monitor next time you use it - it might hint at some javascript or flash that is making it act whacky | 07:07 |
| pero | how do i do that | 07:07 |
| kriskropd | pero under your menu should be Tools and then under that should be "Task Manager" | 07:09 |
| kriskropd | it should help define what each processes related to chromium is doing, unlike what you might see in htop or similar | 07:09 |
| kriskropd | google's little way of making things more complicated :) | 07:09 |

| amagee | timal170: both have strengths and weaknesses, really depends what you want to actually do | 08:28 |
| Keavon | Okay I posted my question http://askubuntu.com/questions/384504/how-to-install-mono-2-8-and-2-10-with-winetricks | 08:29 |
| amagee | dual boot if you want eg. dual monitors or high-end 3d performance | 08:29 |
| timal170 | amagee: running some windows based softwares like SQL server management studio and few windows only games like Battlefield | 08:30 |
| amagee | timal170: for games you definitely want a native install of windows | 08:30 |
| amagee | whether you want your linux to be in a VM or dual boot is up to you, depending on what you want to do with linux | 08:30 |
| timal170 | amagee i have ubuntu 13.10 as my main OS right now which installed day before yesterday | 08:31 |

| dreamon | I want a file to be crypted. Is it possible to do without creating it it from new. Its a big file 900GB. I dont have enough space left to do ;) | 08:33 |
| amagee | timal170: yeah i guess either way would work then. for what it's worth I dual boot ubuntu with windows, which i only use for gaming. | 08:34 |
| amagee | though i'm starting to use VMs as well on top of that | 08:34 |
| timal170 | if my college would not force me to use windows only programs then i would not have such trouble but... | 08:35 |
| drphitheta | Is anyone having problems with youtube-dl? | 08:35 |
| amagee | timal170: your school forces you to play battlefield? ;) | 08:36 |
| tracer | Hi i'm looking a guide for terminal in ubuntu | 08:36 |
| timal170 | no amagee the SQL thing | 08:37 |
| amagee | ah. well if all you need is sql server then it'd be fine to run windows in a VM on linux | 08:37 |
| timal170 | but amagee what about battlefield? :o | 08:39 |
| jmgk | timal170: you can use WINE | 08:39 |
| amagee | timal170: then you can't blame it on your school :P | 08:40 |
| amagee | yeah you could check if you can play battlefield decently in wine, i have no idea | 08:40 |
| timal170 | let me check wine db | 08:41 |
| amagee | anyway i'm off | 08:41 |
| jmgk | me too | 08:41 |
| timal170 | amagee before you go | 08:42 |
| amagee | yeah? | 08:42 |
| timal170 | if i choose to dual boot how should i divide by hard disk (500Gb)? | 08:43 |
| === bobdole is now known as _dan_ | ||
| amagee | again that's really up to you | 08:43 |
| timal170 | 50-50 or 75-25 | 08:43 |
| amagee | windows needs fairly ridiculous amounts of space | 08:43 |
| jmgk | well said amagee | 08:44 |
| jmgk | :P | 08:44 |
| amagee | heh | 08:44 |
| timal170 | i don't know what to do when it comes to dual booting | 08:45 |
| amagee | i have a fairly ridiculous number of partitions | 08:45 |
| amagee | for linux i have /, /home, and swap (which i highly recommend) | 08:45 |
| dalit | guys i want to password protect a file, any tools available? | 08:45 |
| amagee | for windows i have one for the OS and one for other data (NTFS) | 08:45 |
| amagee | and a couple more | 08:46 |
| amagee | and more again because i have multiple drives :P | 08:46 |
| amagee | probably best to have a bit of a think and plan out what you're going to do before you start | 08:46 |
| timal170 | i am thinking of giving 250 to windows and 250 to ubuntu | 08:46 |
| dalit | guys i want to password protect a file, any tools available? | 08:47 |
| amagee | timal170: that's probably fine | 08:47 |
| timal170 | battlefield 3 does not work quite well in wine | 08:47 |
| Ich5003 | I need help, yesterday I installed my AMD graphic drivers. After reboot and login there was inly the Background and the Mouse | 08:47 |
| amagee | then for ubuntu you might want to divide that as 50gb for /, and 200gb for /home | 08:47 |
| timal170 | garbage rating | 08:47 |
| amagee | for windows maybe 100gb for c: and 150gb for other | 08:47 |
| amagee | or something like that | 08:48 |
| timal170 | for windows i would rather do 50gb for os and rest for other amagee | 08:49 |
| amagee | mm you may be underestimating how quickly your "os" partition will chew through data | 08:49 |
| timal170 | oh forgot that thinking windows as ubuntu | 08:50 |
| amagee | hmm? | 08:50 |
| timal170 | your suggestion is goog | 08:50 |
| timal170 | *good | 08:50 |
| amagee | cool :) | 08:51 |
| amagee | well now i'm really off :p | 08:51 |
| timal170 | for ubuntu though i would use 10 gb for / and rest for other | 08:51 |
| dalit | guys i want to password protect a file, any tools available? | 08:52 |

| cristian_c | Hi | 09:02 |
| cristian_c | I installed qt4-qtconfig. When I open the qt configuration tool, I change the font type and size. Then I select File-> Save, and the string 'Saved changes.' appears in the statusbar | 09:02 |
| cristian_c | But if I close and reopen the configuration tool, I find the previous settings, as if I had not made any changes | 09:03 |
| cfhowlett | cristian_c, sounds like a .hidden file in your /home. find and kill. | 09:04 |
| cristian_c | cfhowlett, ok, but what file? | 09:05 |
| cfhowlett | cristian_c, I'd *guess* some named .qt4*** | 09:05 |
| cristian_c | cfhowlett, I don't find it :( | 09:07 |

| Balzy | Hello, can someone tell me the default $LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable value? | 10:04 |
| Balzy | 'cause I messed up a bit and google is not helping | 10:05 |
| MonkeyDust | Balzy it says here : "When should I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH?" | 10:06 |
| MonkeyDust | The short answer is never. | 10:06 |
| MonkeyDust | Balzy and here it says "In general it is not a good practice to have LD_LIBRARY_PATH permanently set in your environment" | 10:08 |
| Balzy | MonkeyDust the problem is that I overwrote it by adding root's lib | 10:08 |
| cristian_c | yash069, has anyone any other ideas? | 10:08 |
| Balzy | so I'm trying to set it back to it's previous value | 10:09 |
| MonkeyDust | Balzy it's a python issue? | 10:09 |
| Balzy | MonkeyDust nope, It's a kind of "user issue", adding root's libs' dir to it (following the guide on root website) I deleted the previous path and now I'd like to reset to the default value if there is one, when you install a fresh ubuntu/kubuntu distro | 10:11 |
| mrsrikanth | hey guys, one of my hard disks has a corrupt partition table as a result of the system hanging while partitioning. i am now trying to format it completely. but when i try to hotplug the device, it gets recognized as /dev/sdc with 150+ partitions and the system runs out of emmory. is there a way to avoid this? | 10:11 |
| mrsrikanth | sorry for the long question. wanted to give some info | 10:11 |
| yash069 | cristian_c: rm ~/.config/Trolltech.conf | 10:13 |
| yash069 | cristain_c, then use qtconfig to re-configure ... hopefully will work but | 10:14 |
| === tsechin is now known as Guest5592 | ||
| yash069 | cristain_c: better do mv ~/.config/Trolltech.conf ~/.config/Trolltech.conf.old | 10:14 |

| yash069 | mrsrikanth: best way to fix it, get a new harddrive. | 10:16 |
| yash069 | mrsrikanth: does it make click sounds ? | 10:17 |
| mrsrikanth | yash069, yes it is spinning if that is what you are referring to | 10:17 |

| streulma | is there a reason why I should use Linux above Mac OS X ? | 10:27 |
| vladmir | streuma: no reason | 10:28 |
| aeon-ltd | streulma: do you want to? | 10:28 |
| streulma | well, my reason was that the OSX apps are not free, and OSX updates also not free. But now, OSX is free | 10:29 |
| streulma | and if I use OSX, if my PC is old, I can't use it anymore to update. So with Linux I can update and it is always free | 10:30 |
| aeon-ltd | streulma: osx updates are free, what are you talking about? | 10:31 |
| aeon-ltd | when 10.9.1 rolls round it will be free... | 10:31 |

| MonkeyDust | CiSense not sure if ubuntu works on ntfs | 10:33 |
| aeon-ltd | dude i'm on a 2008 regular macbook, i'll switch over to linux when security takes a real hit, so far only java is my concern. your battery is more likely to die in the next 4-5 years than osx ditching support | 10:33 |
| CiSense | MonkeyDust, maybe that was the problem, i assumed it would reformat to ext4 | 10:33 |
| MonkeyDust | CiSense yes, try that first | 10:33 |
| CiSense | in any case it has corrupted the XP boot | 10:34 |
| streulma | try boot-repair ? | 10:34 |
| CiSense | streulma, that sounds good ... | 10:34 |
| CiSense | where is it? | 10:35 |
| aeon-ltd | streulma: you don't have to purchase software, but osx is getting more closed in since lion. if you want linux then get linux, but ime it's too much hassle - though i'm guessing your rMBP has more support than my mac | 10:35 |

| CiSense | streulma, it says removing grub2-common ....... ureadahead will be reprofiled on next reboot | 10:52 |
| Rootbrian | Tozen: window manager/desktop environment being LXDE or XFCE. | 10:52 |

| lotuspsychje | timal170: if course i would reccomend you single boot ubuntu, and loose windows once and for good :p | 10:59 |
| MonkeyDust | timal170 that's two different questions, better explain what brings you here | 10:59 |

| ActionParsnip | Hey guys. I've seen hard drives with SSDs (hybrid). Is it possible to install Ubuntu to this then use the platter storage for /home and /var etc? Or am I missing something? Thanks | 12:32 |
| yash069 | tonitonito: what adapter you have ? | 12:32 |
| yash069 | <ActionParsnip> u mean /home and /var mounted on other drive ? | 12:35 |
| yash069 | yes ofcource u can do that .. | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Yash069: yeah, 8Gb is more than enough for / here. | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Yashp69: are both drives detected separately? | 12:36 |
| sofox | Hey, this is a more technical question, but say you are running an Ubuntu in a VPS with an IP address, how would you send email to it? | 12:36 |
| Overlordz | ActionParsnip, my understanding of hybrid drives is that they just appear as 1 regular drive to the OS | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: you'd need to buy a domain and set the NS record to the IP of your VPS | 12:36 |
| yash069 | ActionParsnip: i took ur question wrongly ... | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Overlordz: ah, was looking for a kind of 2in1 drive. Looks like I'll need 2 separate storages | 12:37 |
| yash069 | hybrid drive use SSD as cache to fasten read write | 12:37 |
| yash069 | so they cant be used diffrently | 12:38 |
| sofox | ActionParsnip: Okay, so say I've got a domain and set the DNS to the right IP address, what do I do then? | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: did you set the MX record to the mailserver's IP | 12:39 |
| sofox | What's a MX record? | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: its how mail works. The MX record is the mailserver of the domain. | 12:40 |
| sofox | Is this part of the DNS redirect or something I set up on the VPS itself? | 12:40 |
| yash069 | setting up mail server haunts me :( | 12:40 |
| xauth | How about sending the mail to the ip address? | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: if you run: dig google.com ,you will see the A record (web) | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: if you run: dig mx google.com ,you will see the mailserver addresses | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: so when you email user@domain.com ,DNS needs to know the IP of the mailserver so it uses the MX record | 12:42 |
| sofox | Okay, what does SOA stand for? | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Xauth: i guess user@some.ip.goes.here would work. Bypassing DNS | 12:43 |
| sofox | Okay, I tried sending an IP email. | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_DNS_record_types | 12:44 |
| sofox | but yeah, using dig mx on the domain I had set up, it gave me something saying SOA instead of MX. | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: you will need to set the MX record in your DNS if you want to use the same name | 12:45 |
| sofox | Okay, I've set the MX record of the ip to the same domain as the website, but now it's giving me an error. | 12:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: when did you set it? What is the TTL of the record? | 12:46 |
| sofox | I'm setting it just now. | 12:46 |
| sofox | Following your advice, I opened up the DNS details. | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: then you will need to wait for the record to expire, then you will get the new record. Your system will cache the record for the length of the TTL | 12:47 |
| === advx is now known as Guest51674 | ||
| sofox | ActionParsnip, thank you for all this, you've given me a good direction to work in, I'll keep at it for now, thanks! | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: basic DNS stuff dude | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Sofox: remember, even a nonreply or norecord for DNS has a TTL. Your system will cache the lack of DNS record for a time | 12:51 |

| thogan | Let's see if anyone has run across this before. I have a new install of Ubuntu 13.10 on a system with three interfaces. Ifconfig will show stats for eth1 and eth2 but eth0 is always showing 0. Yes traffic is passing through eth0. Ideas how to correct? | 13:02 |
| MonkeyDust | thogan start with ifconfig|pastebinit and paste the url in the channel | 13:05 |
| rwc2 | can someone assist with removing proprietary graphic driver from my system | 13:08 |
| thogan | ifconfig|pastebinit | 13:08 |
| MonkeyDust | thogan type it in a terminal | 13:08 |
| thogan | paste.ubuntu.com/6504081/ | 13:09 |
| thogan | yes sorry, my cut and paste was not working between screens. The correct URL is http://paste.ubuntu.com/6504081/ | 13:10 |
| MonkeyDust | thogan those inet addrresses do not seem local to me | 13:11 |
| thogan | As you can see the RX and TX values for eth0 are 0 and I am trying to figure out why | 13:12 |
| thogan | What do you mean local? They are public IPv4 and global IPv6 addresses. | 13:12 |
| MonkeyDust | thogan is that through a router? | 13:13 |
| thogan | A router yes, no NAT involved. | 13:14 |
| MonkeyDust | no NAT, then what? | 13:15 |
| MonkeyDust | NAT is the main purpose of a router | 13:15 |
| thogan | MonkeyDust: I am not following your questioning. A routable IP address is assigned to the server and is directly connected to the Internet. I have had this configuration for several years but have never seen ifconfig not show any stats. | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Thogan: then its not a router if the systems behind if get a routable address. | 13:17 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, on eth0:0 and 1 you cant have 0.0.0.0 as broadcast address | 13:18 |

| Sh1G3rU | thogan, a /29 means you own 8 ip adresses of wich .90 is your network and .98 is your broadcast | 13:23 |
| === Guest49236 is now known as WolfPete | ||
| ActionParsnip | guru_shipu: its the commands in step 5 here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PackageManagerTroubleshootingProcedure | 13:23 |
| guru_shipu | ActionParsnip, ok | 13:23 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, usually those ip are given away from your dhpc server wich is either in your router or on your isps servers | 13:24 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: Those IPs are given to my from my ISP and my network is 88 with my broadcast of 95. | 13:25 |
| MonkeyDust | thogan what's your router's ip address? | 13:25 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, i took this as an example | 13:26 |
| Sh1G3rU | 50.76.143.90/29 | 13:26 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: Should not the /29 in my up command have set the broadcast? | 13:26 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: I understand. | 13:26 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, are your interfaces directly connected to the internet? | 13:26 |
| ben__ | How do I find the loop device associated with a specific file? Is there a better way than grepping 'losetup -f' ? | 13:26 |
| Sh1G3rU | i mean do you manage your own routing ? | 13:27 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: Yes | 13:27 |
| lazureus | hello everybody, I was wonder could someone help me with one problem, I've installed summon-arm-gcc toolchain recently | 13:27 |
| Sh1G3rU | well then you should use only one interface | 13:27 |
| Sh1G3rU | and on that interface build virtual interfaces of sequential ip | 13:27 |
| lazureus | but it turns out that it is obsolete, does anyone can tell me how to uninstall it ? can I just remove files from the /usr/bin folder ? | 13:28 |
| Sh1G3rU | but i guess you did all this for the failover , bonding or load balancing | 13:28 |
| === mickn_ is now known as mickn | ||
| Sh1G3rU | well you can split up the ip | 13:28 |
| Sh1G3rU | half to one physical interface and half to the second | 13:28 |
| CiSense | hi ... (13.04) how can i quickly change video driver?, system locks up after a few mins with grapical errors ... | 13:28 |
| Sh1G3rU | and on that you build virtual interfaces | 13:28 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: Right, that is what I did. 89 is the main IP address on eth0, 90 is a vip and sofourth | 13:29 |
| Sh1G3rU | ok good | 13:29 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, you cannot assign multiple ipv4 to a single interface | 13:29 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: Why not? | 13:30 |
| Sh1G3rU | you can assign as many as you wish ipv6 but ipv4 must have only one | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. does your usb card show whern using this csudo aplay -lommand in the terminal , sudo aplay -l | 13:30 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, because it doesnt work | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | oops | 13:30 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: I have done that for some time in order to run multiple web sites with SSL | 13:30 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, you have to build for every ip virtual nics | 13:30 |
| Sh1G3rU | and you have only 2 | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. ignore the csudo aplay -lommand | 13:31 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: Thank you for your response. Negative, it does not show up there. However, I see it when doing lsusb. | 13:31 |
| BluesKaj | yes WolfPete , ok what about alsamixer in the terminal? | 13:31 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: I cannot see the device there either. | 13:32 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: Not sure that I follow. I thought I found in the Ubuntu Fourms steps for assigning multiple IPs to an interface by defining the interface in the /etc/network/interfaces file and then using post-up directive to add the aliases, or vips, or whatever they shoudl be called. | 13:32 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: I hit F6 to show all devices, but it is not listed there. Futhermore, I have edited /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and have set options snd-usb-audio index=0 | 13:32 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, your real nick has only one ipv4 and plenty ipv6 | 13:33 |
| Sh1G3rU | on your real nick you add virtual nic-s | 13:33 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. do you intend to use this usb card permanently , if so you may have to change the default audio in your BIOS | 13:33 |
| Sh1G3rU | and on every and each one of them you add 1 ipv4 | 13:33 |
| WolfPete | BlueKaj: I intend to use, but I also would like to switch to other devices when necesarry. | 13:34 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: I remember this soundcard working on earlier versions of Ubuntu in the past. | 13:35 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. makesure your integrated soundcard isn't also index or card "0" | 13:35 |
| jelle_s | Hello, My name is Jelle, and i have a problem with connecting a usb device in virtualbox, do you know where to correctly post this question? | 13:35 |
| thogan | Sh1G3rU: Oh, I see what you are saying. Yes, this is a bug in Ubuntu. I would have to look up the document again but basically Ubuntu does not know how to add an IPv6 address to an interface label of eth0:1 or eth0:2 and every IPv6 address ends up under eth0. This in itself should not effect the interfaces ability to show RX and TX stats though. | 13:36 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: How do I make sure it isn't ? | 13:36 |
| === right is now known as center | ||
| cfhowlett | jelle_s, you added the guest additions? | 13:36 |
| Sh1G3rU | thogan, nope ubuntu routes very well both ip v4 and v6 on both virtual and real interfaces you must configure them | 13:37 |
| thogan | Okay, then do you have a link to the steps for doing that so I can double check my configuration? | 13:37 |
| jelle_s | i've added the extension pack, i've downloaded guest addition iso, i've burned a cd of this iso, tried to install the thing, but got error message | 13:38 |
| jelle_s | i'll try it again to post the error nessage exactly | 13:38 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. run cat /proc/asound/modules , that shows which drivers are installed and their default order , then you cab change the index setting in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf | 13:39 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: I do not see my usb listed there, only "snd_hda_intel" twice (index 0 and 1) | 13:40 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. also if you have pavucontrol installed , you can set the default outputs there. | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. whaich audio chip does the usb card use ? | 13:41 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: I have installed that yesterday whilst trying to fix it, I do not see my usb card listed in pavucontrol. | 13:41 |
| jelle_s | i have now correctly installed the guest additions in my ubuntu hostmachine, but can't add usb devices yet... | 13:42 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: I sadly do not know what to tell you. I can see it as Bus 005 Device 003: ID 0d8c:000c C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter when running lsusb. | 13:42 |
| cfhowlett | jelle_s, enable usb in the settings | 13:42 |
| cfhowlett | jelle_s, actually which virtualbox did you install? the one in the repos or directly download from oracle | 13:43 |
| jelle_s | done, and also the ehc 2.0 controller, but nevertheless 'no usb available' | 13:43 |
| jelle_s | i've got virtualbox directly from vboxwebsite, | 13:44 |
| jelle_s | version 4.2.18 | 13:44 |
| sheldor | hi | 13:44 |
| cfhowlett | jelle_s, then you need to enable USB passthrough on the machine settings while the machine is off | 13:44 |
| cfhowlett | sheldor, greetings | 13:44 |
| sheldor | have someone been tried the command "cmatrix" ? | 13:45 |

| claudia_ | Hi all, my problem: want to install ubuntu or kubuntu 13.10 on an very new hp pavilion with gfxcard amd radeon 8240, uefi secure boot and GPT. Wubi installed grub for DVD but I can't install Ubuntu because I get no grafic. I could install kubuntu 12.04 on sda6 but can not boot into it and I cannot make a boot-repair without grafic. How can I run boot repair in konsole with grafic? | 14:01 |
| guru_shipu | brightness keys are not working on a sony vaio laptop. Please help | 14:01 |
| BluesKaj | to make it default | 14:01 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. ^ | 14:01 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: when I set it to 0, my device is not listed under devices in alsamixer. | 14:01 |
| BluesKaj | WolfPete. ok , is the default audio device in your BIOS set to the Cmedia / USB device ? | 14:02 |
| claudia_ | or on konsole without grafic? | 14:02 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: I'm afraid I did not see my usb soundcard listed in the BIOS. | 14:02 |
| BluesKaj | so it's probly set to auto then , WolfPete | 14:03 |
| lotuspsychje | claudia_: did you disable secure boot from bios? | 14:03 |
| claudia_ | yes | 14:03 |
| lotuspsychje | claudia_: and you see no ubuntu setup screen? | 14:04 |
| claudia_ | not on 13.10, on 12.04 I could install on sda6 | 14:04 |
| claudia_ | perhaps 12.04 was using vesa? | 14:05 |
| BluesKaj | ok WolfPete, sudo modprobe snd-usb-audio in the terminal , if there's no output the driver loaded properly | 14:05 |
| lotuspsychje | claudia_: wubi doesnt work for 13.10 i think, maybe try another way to write to usb | 14:05 |
| WolfPete | BluesKaj: BluesKaj, I thank you for your help! I have been able to sort it out by plugging the soundcard in a different usb port. The thing that got me thinking was that alsamixer froze whenever i tried to configure my soundcard. | 14:05 |
| BluesKaj | you probly need to reboot if it loaded ok , WolfPete | 14:05 |

| hitsujiTMO | Danato: looks like its a case of building the kernel. its effectively the same as you've already done, its just you're building a kernel instead of installing a precompiled one. if it fails it will again be the case of finding the older kernel in the grub menu, booting that, then purging this kernel | 16:44 |

| rallosvan | LtRipley: Read the docs there, they give the location of the startup scripts | 17:02 |

| LtRipley | rallosvan: yes, thats why i ask | 17:10 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Well, if you want to configure upstart, configure it. Dont look out for a shiny gui toopl doing exactly that. :) | 17:10 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: the installers do a lot behind your back - upstart is the way the OS does it, and what they all end up calling somehow | 17:10 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: i know that, that is why i am asking whether there is a solution on the same abstraction level the installers work on | 17:11 |
| LtRipley | i don't want to mess with some settings and the next time i use the installers they choke on it | 17:11 |
| phong_ | anyone know how to install directx in wine? | 17:11 |
| LtRipley | (or just overwrite my changes) | 17:11 |
| subz3r0 | phong_: use winetricks OR playonlinux(would prefer this solution) | 17:12 |
| yeats | phong_: /join #winehq | 17:12 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: it is not that i am fail to read the manpage, it is just that my experience with linux tells me that i don't want to change that that deep | 17:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | LtRipley: the installers don't work on any abstraction layer. they directly write those upstart/sys v scripts | 17:12 |
| Megabyte | How do I grant Wine writing permissions to a directory I've protected read-only? | 17:12 |
| bekks | LtRipley: the installers will always overwrite your settings like: if you disable apache, and update apache, and the installer is set to activate apache again, it will do so. | 17:12 |
| LtRipley | hitsujiTMO: and they have no "undo"? | 17:12 |
| Megabyte | (NTFS usb drive) | 17:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | LtRipley: no undo | 17:13 |
| LtRipley | ok thanks | 17:13 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: if you google very hard you might be able to find a gui tool for upstart, but I will say most folk here would just edit the files and be done with it | 17:14 |

| SASDOE | gordonjcp: and not something people seem to want. | 17:18 |
| wolfspy | the startup disk creator is stuck at 94% complete | 17:18 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: this is not about unwillingness to read manpages, it is just that manpages won't necessarily tell you a lot about the distro's infrastructure | 17:18 |
| SASDOE | gordonjcp: thankfully. | 17:18 |
| gordonjcp | SASDOE: indeed | 17:18 |
| gordonjcp | SASDOE: not even Windows servers have GUIs | 17:18 |
| gordonjcp | SASDOE: at least not the ones I've seen | 17:18 |
| SASDOE | gordonjcp: Mac's do. Tried it, loathed it. | 17:18 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: it iwll tell you how to disable a service, and you know the name of the serivce. it should not be frightening. but why disable jackd? | 17:19 |
| gordonjcp | SASDOE: don't think I ever saw a GUI on the Mac servers we had | 17:19 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: i am asuming to have multiple instances of jack running, and i am fighting hard to get jack runnign with my usb soun card | 17:19 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: don't have multiple instances of jack running | 17:19 |
| bazhang | join #utorrent on irc.p2p-irc.net axizor | 17:19 |
| yeats | LtRipley: just create copies of anything you're changing and you're golden | 17:19 |
| LtRipley | gordonjcp: that's why i want to disable one of them ;) | 17:19 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: You only need jackd if you want lag free audio monitoring - is that still the case? | 17:19 |
| SASDOE | gordonjcp: when was that? | 17:19 |
| gordonjcp | SASDOE: a few years ago | 17:20 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: or use tools that rely on jack | 17:20 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: chances are you haven't got multiple jack servers running | 17:20 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: because that takes a bit of effort | 17:20 |
| SASDOE | gordonjcp: http://www.apple.com/osx/server/ | 17:20 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: if you are entirely new to Linux and want proper jack audio *and* the ease-of-use you get from Ubuntu, look into kxstudio | 17:21 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: btw what are you doing and which programs are you using? | 17:21 |
| LtRipley | gordonjcp: yes, you might be right. All i know is that there is an instance of jackdbus running and jack_control says it is not running | 17:21 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: ardour is my main point of interest now, but it is not about ardour | 17:21 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: I would agree with gordonjcp - thre are music specific spins of ubuntu or linux. Proaudio on linux is a bit of a train wreck to setup | 17:21 |
| LtRipley | gordonjcp: i am not entirely new, i just don't mess with configs that often since i have a steady job | 17:22 |
| phong_ | how to check wine version? | 17:22 |
| CiSense | hitsujiTMO, system errors and lockups .. i'm instaling 13.10 now | 17:22 |
| flugh | wine --version? | 17:22 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: i've got the feeling that either way i need to understand what is happening, and audio under ubuntu is annoying me for some time, so i am going the learn the details | 17:23 |
| phong_ | wow i have 1.4.1 | 17:23 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: i don't think any specific ubuntu version will solve all my problems | 17:23 |
| phong_ | is there a way to upgrade it? i think that is not the latest one | 17:23 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: quite a few media distros would have ardour pre configured - it is the most comon DAW on linux | 17:23 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: i would bet quite some money that it doesn't run out of the box on my hardware | 17:24 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: I am sure there is a channel for adour actualy. Perhaps #ardour? | 17:24 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: this is not about ardour, thanks | 17:24 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: did you try ubuntustudio? | 17:24 |
| LtRipley | no | 17:25 |

| LtRipley | rallosvan: thanks | 17:25 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: However when you work out exactly what you want to do, we're here to answer that specific question | 17:26 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: you answered my questions already | 17:26 |
| LtRipley | the rest of the conversation was about you making me justifying what i want to do :) | 17:27 |
| aPpYe | I am building a KDE system from Ubuntu mini 13.10. I have apt-get's Install-Recommends feature disabled. If I build the system WITH recommends, everything is fine. If I build WITHOUT, the Languages tab under Locale in System Settings is stuck with a progress meter that hangs at 0% forever. | 17:27 |
| aPpYe | Linked… http://paste.ubuntu.com/6505158/ ...is a list of packages (what would come with Install-Recommends enabled) that fixes the issue. I am having a really hard time figuring out what package(s) from this list are required for the Language tab to work correctly. | 17:27 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: Not justify, just your use case was unusual enough so have to make sure it wasn't an XY question. | 17:28 |
| LtRipley | rallosvan: whatever that is :) | 17:29 |
| bcuda_ | How do you reset all nvidia settings / packages to what a fresh install would have? | 17:29 |
| bcuda_ | or do I have to re install ubuntu12.04 over itself? | 17:29 |
| Mitizaro | Helllllo thereee!! | 17:30 |
| adamu | bcuda_, blacklist the nvidia kernel module and unblacklist nouveau (if you did blacklist nouveau) then remove the config file nvidia-xconfig generated and it should be gone | 17:30 |
| Mitizaro | Can i be proposed a good Ubuntu distro for FULL FLASH support (considering my PC is strong, but old -- 2,4GHZ, 1,3GB Ram and Nvidia 5900) | 17:30 |
| ikonia | Mitizaro: flash is dead on linux | 17:31 |
| rallosvan | LtRipley: You're OK. But sometimes user wants to do Y, thinks X is the best way to do Y, and asks how to do X, not Y. | 17:31 |
| bcuda_ | adamu: any idea how to do that from terminal? I can't startx linux crashes | 17:31 |
| aPpYe | well ... use chrome | 17:31 |
| aPpYe | not chromium | 17:31 |
| aPpYe | pepper flash | 17:31 |
| bcuda_ | complete crash, not little crash | 17:31 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: Only google chrome has the latest proprietary flash player. Chromium doens.t | 17:31 |
| bcuda_ | and I've done nothing but use apt-get installer | 17:31 |
| Mitizaro | i HAVE flash | 17:32 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: so any distro, but use the google-branded chrome browser | 17:32 |
| Mitizaro | in my vector linux | 17:32 |
| Mitizaro | oops | 17:32 |
| adamu | bcuda_, do you have a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ called nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf | 17:32 |
| Mitizaro | i have google chrome | 17:32 |
| Mitizaro | but still cant open basic | 17:32 |
| FloodBot1 | Mitizaro: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:32 |
| Mitizaro | flash game | 17:32 |
| Mitizaro | well some Slackware guy can open what i couldn't (but he also has newer PC) | 17:32 |
| ikonia | Mitizaro: if you are using vector linux why are you asking in #ubuntu about flash (apologies if I've missed the real meaning of your question) | 17:32 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: Flash in google chrome does work, i suspect the problem is elsewhre. What errors do you get, or can you link the site that fails? | 17:32 |

| bcuda_ | adamu: 1 sec, it is rebooting | 17:33 |
| adamu | bcuda_, alright | 17:33 |
| phong_ | can WINE run any windows softwares? | 17:35 |
| phong_ | or it is limited | 17:35 |
| ikonia | phong_: exceptionally limited | 17:35 |
| ikonia | phong_: it is not something you should depend on as a solution | 17:35 |
| phong_ | i c | 17:35 |
| DJones | phong_: It will run some, but not everything and even the ones it runs, it may not run properly | 17:36 |
| bcuda_ | adamu: there is a lot of stuff in there, but not that one. there are two with nvidia in their name: nvidia-current-hybrid.conf and nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf | 17:36 |
| rallosvan | phong_: look up specific applications on http://appdb.winehq.org/ - most games work | 17:36 |
| phong_ | oh well..prefer boot up if need to use windows :) | 17:36 |
| phong_ | luckily i have multi os | 17:36 |
| ikonia | phong_: that's the best solution. | 17:36 |
| rallosvan | phong_: Which programs in particular? | 17:37 |
| adamu | bcuda_, Okay can you cat those files and put their contents on paste bin | 17:37 |
| bcuda_ | ugh | 17:37 |
| bcuda_ | how? | 17:37 |
| bekks | !pastebinit | bcuda_ | 17:38 |
| ubottu | bcuda_: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 17:38 |

| Mitizaro | Flash in Google CHrome - i dont even get the plugin in extentsions -- i have chrome 12.0 | 17:38 |
| Mitizaro | i mean -- i get BLACK SCREEN where the game should be | 17:39 |
| Mitizaro | (youtube runs with html5) | 17:39 |
| OerHeks | Mitizaro, chrome has its own flash buildin | 17:39 |
| bekks | Mitizaro: Chrome 12.0 is heavily outdated. the current version is 31. | 17:39 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: chrome 12? it's like up to 31? | 17:39 |
| wolfspy | lol | 17:39 |
| ikonia | Mitizaro: if you are using vector linux why are you asking in #ubuntu about flash (apologies if I've missed the real meaning of your question) | 17:39 |
| Mitizaro | i was interested in a good ubuntu for the purpose u know.. | 17:39 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: your problem is chrome 12 not your distro | 17:39 |
| wolfspy | mabye bacause this channel has almost 2000 people in ti | 17:39 |
| wolfspy | it | 17:39 |
| ikonia | flash as an external package is dead though | 17:39 |
| wolfspy | I would update your chrome | 17:40 |
| ikonia | wolfspy: the number of people doesn't really matter, as we only deal with ubuntu here, | 17:40 |
| Mitizaro | i cant | 17:40 |
| Mitizaro | i mean i dunno how | 17:40 |
| Mitizaro | here its harder -- the official channel doesnt have newer version | 17:40 |
| adamu | I find the best way to install flash is to just download the tar ball from adobe | 17:40 |
| ikonia | adamu: no it's not, as that is "dead" | 17:40 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: download the current version from google to get the newest chrome. | 17:40 |
| adamu | ikonia, Oh it is? | 17:40 |
| Mitizaro | i did - i dunno how to install the tar.gz here in VLIN | 17:40 |
| leelondon | hi guys | 17:40 |
| wolfspy | ikonia: on the support channel for his distro there may be no people active, but in this room people are always active | 17:40 |
| ikonia | adamu: yes, adobe stopped developing it in 2011 | 17:40 |
| Mitizaro | and its CHROMIUM 31 | 17:41 |
| adamu | ikonia, Oh.. Good to know :/ | 17:41 |
| ikonia | wolfspy: so ? that doesn't mean this channel supports his distro | 17:41 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: Well that's a problem for your distro ... can't help there | 17:41 |
| Mitizaro | i know | 17:41 |
| Mitizaro | still - what is the best ubuntu | 17:41 |
| thai-2012 | hello everyone! who can advice,... i need internet-radio player for Ubuntu | 17:41 |
| Mitizaro | for my specs? | 17:41 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: chromium is NOT chrome | 17:41 |

| leelondon | any latest news for ubuntu | 17:41 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: 1.3GB? | 17:41 |
| ikonia | Mitizaro: there is no "best ubuntu for flah" - it's dead | 17:41 |
| Mitizaro | ram | 17:42 |
| ikonia | wolfspy: again - we don't deal with specific applications for his distro | 17:42 |
| Beldar | thai-2012, rhythmbox plays radio links | 17:42 |
| rallosvan | how do you have 1.3GB of ram? | 17:42 |
| Mitizaro | well | 17:42 |
| adamu | Anyone tried running flash with pipelight? | 17:42 |

| Mitizaro | its weird but i have 3 slots | 17:42 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: yea you're OK, don't mind me | 17:43 |
| bekks | Mitizaro: Can you sum up your specs in one line please instead spreading them over ten lines? | 17:43 |
| thai-2012 | Beldar yes i use rhythmbox. but there is 10-20 radio-stations. small. I need 1000+ radio stations in player. help? | 17:43 |
| Mitizaro | AMD 2,4 GHZ (clocked to match 2,6GHZ) 1,3GB RAM DDR2, Nvidia FX5900GT, 80gb HDD, Creative SoundBlaster LIVE! 5.1 -- 11 year old PC | 17:44 |
| bekks | Mitizaro: Then you could use lubuntu e.g. | 17:44 |
| Beldar | thai-2012, Not sure there is one myself. | 17:44 |
| Mitizaro | I used to have lubuntu and Xubuntu, but... games/media seemed kinda pfuked up | 17:44 |
| Mitizaro | for example if i want to put HON | 17:44 |
| ikonia | Mitizaro: control the language please, there is no need to try to swear | 17:44 |
| Mitizaro | the nvidia drivers and etc is hard deal.. | 17:45 |
| bekks | Mitizaro: Then get more recent hardware. | 17:45 |
| Beldar | thai-2012, you can add to rhythmbox however. | 17:45 |
| bcuda_ | adamu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6505273/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/6505270/ | 17:45 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: I have a 5.1 --- it was better for me for recordign from my guitar; the newer cards were introducing audiolag due to drivers and I didnt see the point in buying a new sound card | 17:45 |
| Mitizaro | yea -- sound blaster rocks | 17:45 |
| Mitizaro | but the rest is quite old, i know -- if i could i WOULD be with quadriple AMD already ;) | 17:45 |
| thai-2012 | Beldar thank you. | 17:45 |
| leelondon | any body use emacs? | 17:45 |
| bekks | !anyone | leelondon | 17:45 |
| ubottu | leelondon: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 17:45 |
| adamu | bcuda_, hey.. it looks like your best bet is going to be to remove the nvidia*.conf files in /etc/modprobe.d then delete the file generated by the nvidia-xconfig (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) then sudo rmmod nvidiaand reboot then try startx | 17:46 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: well there's nothing wrong with your system specs; your flash problem is related to your software stack | 17:46 |
| Mitizaro | i know | 17:46 |
| Mitizaro | but i was considering running wine and LOL or Heroes of Newerth -- so the most "gamey" OS is best -- Ubuntu and Mint come first to mind | 17:46 |
| Mitizaro | and i dunno if 10.04 is good, 10.10, 12.04... etc. | 17:46 |
| bekks | Mitizaro: 10.04 desktop is not supported anymore, if in doubt, use 12.04 | 17:47 |
| rallosvan | Mitizaro: is HON still alive? | 17:47 |
| Mitizaro | yes | 17:47 |
| Mitizaro | heroes of newerth is linux based and still alive | 17:47 |
| rallosvan | wow | 17:47 |
| rallosvan | i went from hon to dota | 17:47 |
| rallosvan | well dots2 | 17:47 |
| rallosvan | it's nice to know HON still lives | 17:47 |
| aPpYe | Mitizaro, you need CHROME, not chromium. | 17:48 |
| Mitizaro | but too heavy a system - would be a problem... or if i cant run the graphics that wouldnt be nice to | 17:48 |
| Beldar | Mitizaro, Your just chatting this is support, there are actually people asking for that. | 17:48 |

| DUkanax | Hi, using ubuntu 13.10: one of my users has the problem that he can't unlock the screen after lock. when moving the mouse or pressing a key, the screen will come back to background, but then instead of showing the password dialog, it goes right back to black screen. At that point I have to force a reboot. any ideas? | 18:01 |
| bekks | stderr: Not without asking a specific question before. | 18:01 |
| rallosvan | sarthor: I don 't know about this, but are you absolutely sure you selected the correct language? | 18:01 |
| Beldar | stderr, Not without details to the channel. | 18:01 |
| adamu | bcuda_, Sorry Man - I got to go... If you arn't that deep into your install yet I would recommend reinstalling but if not hopefully someone can help you | 18:01 |
| adamu | Good bye everyone | 18:02 |
| stderr | i'm trying to setup a vagrant vm that is 64-bit and requires VT-x, inside a 32bit guest that is already a KVM host | 18:02 |
| stderr | i mean KVM guest | 18:02 |
| stderr | and came across this | 18:02 |
| stderr | VT-x is required to run 64bit guests. If you get that error message it means that the VT-x feature exists on your host, but is currently locked. You need to enable it in your host BIOS or, if that is already done, make sure that nothing else is already using it (e.g. Hyper-v). | 18:02 |
| LtRipley | bekks: ? i don't have a command called pastebin | 18:02 |
| stderr | now my question is, thit this KVM guest already hijack this VT-x feature | 18:02 |
| stderr | ? | 18:02 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Thats why I wrote pastebinit | 18:03 |
| sarthor | rallosvan: I am browsing Internet, and some websites are in Arabic language, so my browser can not show me in the right way. While, When I create some .pdf file having arabic text, Also this happen, the fonts not remain in the proper sequence. | 18:03 |
| Beldar | !pastebinit | LtRipley | 18:03 |
| ubottu | LtRipley: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 18:03 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Oh, sorry.I intended to write pastebinit. | 18:03 |
| rallosvan | stderr: you have a VM inside a VM, and you need the inner one to use 64bit VT-X while the outer one is 32bit? | 18:03 |
| stderr | exactly | 18:03 |
| bekks | stderr: thats not possible without using vmware workstation. | 18:04 |
| rallosvan | stderr: that sound you can hear is me running away :- | 18:04 |
| rallosvan | sarthor: what language is your ubuntu set to? | 18:04 |
| gordonjcp | 17:24 < LtRipley> gordonjcp: i am not entirely new, i just don't mess with configs that often since i have a steady job | 18:04 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: lolwut | 18:04 |
| rallosvan | gordonjcp: they frighten him and he believes that only nerds are able to tame them | 18:05 |
| LtRipley | actually i wrote init scripts from the scratch once, still i preferr not to get in the way of the OS if not necessary | 18:06 |
| sarthor | I am not exactly getting your questing. but my OS interface is English, While in the bowser there is, in firefox toolbar, view...character encoding---unicode-UTF-8 | 18:06 |
| LtRipley | even without touching it i managed to lock myself out of X now... | 18:06 |
| sarthor | rallosvan: | 18:06 |
| bekks | LtRipley: You should prefer to use the ways the OS is offering to you. | 18:06 |
| sarthor | let me paste with rallosvan name... I am not exactly getting your questing. but my OS interface is English, While in the bowser there is, in firefox toolbar, view...character encoding---unicode-UTF-8 | 18:07 |
| LtRipley | bekks: isn't that the point i was trying to make? | 18:07 |
| bekks | LtRipley: No. You made the point you are trying to get out of the ways of the OS. | 18:07 |
| marcus | this has been easier for me than Winblows | 18:07 |
| bekks | LtRipley: At least thats what you said. | 18:07 |
| Beldar | marcus, Cool, do you need support? | 18:08 |
| LtRipley | bekks: it doesn't really matter. Either way people will say the troubles i have with linux are my own fault | 18:08 |
| LtRipley | b | 18:08 |
| marcus | not yet...I'm testing the xchat I just downloaded..thanx though :-) | 18:08 |
| bekks | LtRipley: But following the ubuntu ways still gives you a supported system ;) | 18:09 |
| Danato | how can I fix this? http://pastebin.com/QC3wYKrY | 18:09 |
| GeeJee1970 | Anyone experience to get pammount working on 12.04? | 18:09 |
| LtRipley | bekks: i try hard to do that | 18:09 |
| Danato | btw i dont understand the command, its for a bug test | 18:09 |
| LtRipley | bekks: it is not always easy to see the ubuntu ways | 18:09 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, State the issue to the channel for help in detail. | 18:09 |
| bekks | Danato: Ask the maintainer of that git repo. | 18:09 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Thats why we are trying to suggest things in here, like "use upstart as it is, dont use fancy GUIs, etc." | 18:10 |
| LtRipley | bekks: people will tell me 'run that command' or 'change that file' and other people will tell me later 'you shouldn't have done that' | 18:10 |
| Danato | bekks: who? | 18:10 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: I just kind of wonder why having a "steady job" precludes being able to understand config files | 18:10 |
| GeeJee1970 | Pammount installed and configured, it does not show any mounted shares | 18:10 |
| bekks | Danato: The maintainer of the git repo | 18:11 |
| LtRipley | bekks: ... i never said i want a fancy gui, actually in #jack i have to justify myself if i want to use command line tools | 18:11 |
| Danato | bekks: and how can I know who is he? | 18:11 |
| LtRipley | gordonjcp: i used to have more time when i was a student | 18:11 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: I think you'll find most people involved in this sort of stuff have "steady jobs" | 18:12 |
| LtRipley | gordonjcp: i didn't intend to say otherwise | 18:12 |
| bekks | Danato: git.kernel.org is an pretty official repo... but in your case, I'd ask the one who suggested to run that command. | 18:13 |
| LtRipley | gordonjcp: i just got the vibe that i have to justify everything i want to do on a personal level | 18:13 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: not at all | 18:13 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: anyway, did you look at KXStudio? | 18:13 |
| Beldar | LtRipley, a vibe is a projection. | 18:13 |
| LtRipley | actually that vibe problem, and that sound problem are secondary now, as i can't login into x anymore | 18:14 |
| Beldar | LtRipley, The key here is just details is all. | 18:14 |
| bekks | LtRipley: why not? what did you do? | 18:14 |
| LtRipley | bekks: apt-get upgrade | 18:15 |
| bekks | LtRipley: That updates the package lists, it doesnt do anything else to your system. | 18:15 |
| bekks | LtRipley: -.- update does that, not upgrade. | 18:15 |
| bekks | LtRipley: So which packages got upgraded? | 18:16 |
| Danato | bekks: ok, ill do that, thanks | 18:16 |
| GeeJee1970 | Installed Pammount on 12.04, can not get it working, mounts do not show up, server in network is visible; cannot be explored, Any suggestions? | 18:16 |
| LtRipley | i upgraded to 3.10 | 18:16 |
| bekks | LtRipley: 3.10? | 18:16 |
| bekks | LtRipley: 3.10 of what? | 18:16 |
| LtRipley | 13.10 | 18:16 |
| LtRipley | ubuntu | 18:16 |
| bekks | Which isnt possible using apt-get upgrade | 18:16 |
| Beldar | LtRipley, gnome 3 or a kernel? | 18:16 |
| LtRipley | bekks: then i am quite surprised | 18:16 |
| bekks | LtRipley: do-release-upgrade does that, e.g. | 18:17 |
| Beldar | LtRipley, did you add a ppa for gnome 3 3.10 | 18:17 |
| bekks | LtRipley: So what exactly did you do, ignoring what you intended to do? | 18:17 |
| bekks | Beldar: No. | 18:17 |
| LtRipley | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6505438/ i hope i didn't make a typo when copying that url | 18:17 |
| bekks | Beldar: He upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10 | 18:17 |
| bekks | LtRipley: thats dmesg. | 18:18 |
| LtRipley | Beldar: no, i was using mate before | 18:18 |
| Beldar | ah upgraded my mistake | 18:18 |
| LtRipley | bekks: then it is the right url | 18:18 |
| Beldar | LtRipley, Ah mate is not supported it's not in the repos. | 18:18 |
| bekks | LtRipley: And you have hardware errors regarding your harddisk. | 18:18 |
| LtRipley | that udev- errormessage was quite prominent during startup, i that it was related to my issue | 18:19 |
| Beldar | LtRipley, Is this mint? | 18:19 |
| bekks | LtRipley: You are not using Ubuntu, arent you? | 18:19 |
| LtRipley | no it is an ordinary ubuntu | 18:19 |
| bekks | Ubuntu 13.10 does not use systemd at all. | 18:19 |
| bekks | Which is what you are using. | 18:19 |
| LtRipley | bekks: take my word, it is ubuntu what i installed. Quite some time ago, though | 18:20 |
| bekks | LtRipley: I dont. I know for sure that Ubuntu isnt using systemd in 13.10 | 18:20 |
| LtRipley | maybe systemd did make through a number of release updates | 18:20 |
| bekks | So you installed systemd using an PPA? | 18:21 |
| GeeJee1970 | Installed Pammount on 12.04, can not get it working, mounts do not show up, server in network is visible; cannot be explored 'can't obtain share list from server', Any suggestions? | 18:21 |
| LtRipley | bekks: no i tried to stay away from PPAs as much as possible | 18:21 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Then how did you get systemd? | 18:21 |
| OerHeks | LtRipley, systemd does not work anymore, as you have been told. | 18:21 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: for a start, how did you even get jackd? | 18:21 |
| LtRipley | gordonjcp: i don't think this is about jackd anymore | 18:21 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: hm, okay | 18:22 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: perhaps it would be a good idea to stop at this point, have a cup of tea away from the computer, and a good long think about what exactly you're trying to achieve | 18:22 |
| LtRipley | bekks: i cannot tell you, i never cared too much about what happens in the background | 18:22 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, Pammount from where it's not in the repos? | 18:22 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Pastebin the output of the following commands please: lsb_release -a; uname -a; cat /etc/issue | 18:22 |
| === arj is now known as yezariaely | ||
| bekks | LtRipley: if you didnt, you wouldnt have systemd now. | 18:22 |
| gordonjcp | LtRipley: it doesn't matter what sort of OS you're using, the most important thing is knowing when to turn the bloody thing off and stop messing with it, while you get your ideas straight | 18:23 |
| LtRipley | bekks: was it default at some point in ubuntu history? | 18:23 |
| === yezariaely is now known as arj | ||
| GeeJee1970 | beldar; I used the commandline: apt-get install | 18:23 |
| bekks | LtRipley: No, never. | 18:23 |
| LtRipley | bekks: that is odd | 18:23 |
| rallosvan | i have systemd on 13.10 | 18:23 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, I don;t see it in the repos. | 18:23 |

| bekks | LtRipley: Thats only one of three outoputs asked for. | 18:26 |
| Beldar | still no pam_mount in my precise repos | 18:26 |
| LtRipley | bekks: no it is those three | 18:27 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Look at your paste then stop discussion it ;) | 18:27 |
| rallosvan | bekks: i have the same systemd-udev entries in my /var/log/dmesg on saucy | 18:27 |
| LtRipley | bekks: not easy with lynx, but you are right | 18:28 |
| NeoID | hi, is it recommended to use no partition, mbr or guid with mdadm raid? | 18:28 |
| GeeJee1970 | Beldar: softwarecenter points to: http://pam-mount.sourceforge.net/ | 18:29 |
| bekks | NeoID: You should always use partitions. | 18:29 |
| NeoID | bekks, mbr or guid? | 18:29 |
| bekks | NeoID: Doesnt matter. | 18:29 |
| LtRipley | bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6505526/ next try | 18:30 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, Did you add a repo, libpam-mount, shows which pam_mount is part of. I don't have an answer, not everyone knows every app, however many we can find and help with if we get the correct details and app names is all. | 18:30 |
| GeeJee1970 | Beldar: not to experienced with terminology here: I took from the Softwarecenter 'PAM module that can mount volumes for a user session-Libpam-mount', how can I link to a reference in the repository?' | 18:33 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, I don't have an answer to your actual issue, I was just not abpe to find pammount in the precise repo is all. | 18:35 |
| Beldar | able* | 18:35 |
| LtRipley | so i get it that systemd is not supposed to be me on my system, but does it actually have anything to do with me not being able to lock into X? or might that be a totally different problem? | 18:36 |
| bekks | LtRipley: Different issues most likely. | 18:36 |
| sruz25 | Does anybody know if it's possible to have multiple shortcuts for things? I want XF86whatever(the media sound control key) for sound control AND super/win+arrow key for when I'm using keyboard w/o Fn or media keys | 18:37 |
| rallosvan | I am actually not sure systemd isn't supposed to be there - i've got it on all my boxes and i dont remember installing it | 18:37 |
| GeeJee1970 | Beldar: NP. Any suggestions how to effectively mount samba shares when using 12.04? | 18:38 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, Nah I have never used samba. | 18:38 |
| LtRipley | bekks: i wouldn't attribute it to me using mate, as this seems to happen before any VM is started | 18:38 |
| bekks | LtRipley: VMs are involved too? | 18:39 |
| LtRipley | sorry WM | 18:39 |
| GeeJee1970 | Beldar: working via CFS? | 18:39 |
| bekks | LtRipley: When X isnt working, no WM may work - thats obvious. | 18:40 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, I use windows and linux, however they are on the same computer, I have no dea what cfs is. | 18:40 |
| LtRipley | bekks: i get GDM i just cannot enter or click anything | 18:40 |
| bekks | cfs is a Cluster File System | 18:40 |
| Beldar | GeeJee1970, I would concentrate on using the channel for help not me. ;) | 18:41 |
| LtRipley | bekks: or "gnome-shell --mode=gdm" as ps suggests | 18:41 |

| GeeJee1970 | Any suggestions on how to effectively mount samba or CFS shares with 12.04? | 18:42 |
| OerHeks | LtRipley, ubuntu uses lightdm, so what linux version are you on? | 18:42 |
| LtRipley | bekks: i am saying that i get a gdm-like login screen, so I am not sure to say 'X is not working' | 18:42 |

| LtRipley | OerHeks: Ubuntu 13.10 lsb_release suggests | 18:44 |
| bekks | LtRipley: you just said it is working. | 18:45 |
| LayAnotherBlock | Ajhh better | 18:45 |
| LtRipley | bekks: it loads, but it doesn't react to input | 18:45 |
| LtRipley | bekks: i cannot look inside whether it is x that fails to interpret my input or gdm is in some kind of halting state | 18:45 |
| bekks | LtRipley: then maybe systemd/udev isnt working. | 18:46 |
| LayAnotherBlock | Umn... I wanna install Ubuntu from Windows XP on a VM. How do i create a blank .iso to use as a blank virtual CD so i can burn the Installation files to it? | 18:46 |
| LtRipley | bekks: i thought you said i am not supposed to have systemd at all? | 18:46 |
| bekks | LayAnotherBlock: download the ubuntu iso, attach it to the vm, done. | 18:46 |
| LayAnotherBlock | No i mean do it inside the VM so i can do a dual boot | 18:47 |
| Beldar | LayAnotherBlock, You realize XP is less than 6 months for end of life? | 18:47 |
| rallosvan | LayAnotherBlock: You want a VM that dual boots 2 OS? | 18:47 |
| bekks | LayAnotherBlock: creating a blank iso is nonsense. | 18:47 |
| bcuda_ | Can someone please explain to me the difference between xorg, xserver, x11, and wayland? | 18:47 |
| dondopa | They suck in their own little way | 18:48 |

| LayAnotherBlock | rallosvan: Yes | 18:48 |
| bekks | !helpful | Beldar | 18:48 |
| rallosvan | LayAnotherBlock: Why would you want this? Why not just install 2 VMs? One OS in each? | 18:49 |
| Beldar | bekks, Explaining in detail all the differences is beyond this channels norm. | 18:49 |
| rallosvan | LayAnotherBlock: What is your use case for dual booting a VM into two OS? | 18:49 |
| Beldar | bekks, period | 18:49 |
| bekks | Beldar: a general explanation in two sentences would have been enough. no one asked for a in-depth explanation. period. | 18:50 |
| LayAnotherBlock | Cuz i wanna use the VM as a fake Real OS. I wanna prank people by thinking my Real OS is not Win8 but is a dual boot of WinXP Pro and Ubuntu haha | 18:50 |
| Beldar | bekks, As you should know that rarely happens. | 18:50 |
| rallosvan | LayAnotherBlock: but you can't get rid of the HOST OS, even in seamless mode. It wont work with virtualbox. which hypervisor are you uisng? | 18:51 |
| bekks | Beldar: I wont discuss your attitude anymore. period. | 18:51 |
| LayAnotherBlock | hypervisor? | 18:52 |
| LayAnotherBlock | Can i have the meaning of that? | 18:52 |
| bekks | rallosvan: seamless mode works fine with vbox. | 18:52 |
| Beldar | bekks, easy explanations are all over the web, they would nit be if if that was needed. And your attitude is not much different, look at the posts you have made, people who live in glass houses. | 18:52 |
| rallosvan | bekks: That's not what i said | 18:52 |
| bekks | Beldar: I am not afraid of my posts, but I am not going to waste my time again with reading you. Bye. | 18:53 |
| LayAnotherBlock | bekks: It only works after installing VBox Guest Additions which i have already done | 18:53 |
| Beldar | bekks, excellent, thanks. ;) | 18:53 |
| rallosvan | bekks: he want his VM to dual boot XP and ubuntu so he can "troll"people into thiking he isnt using win8. But that wont work becuase even in seamless mode you will see parts of the host. Which is what i was saying, never mind the actual difficulty of dual booting a VM | 18:54 |
| bekks | LayAnotherBlock: yes. thatsa expected. | 18:54 |
| LayAnotherBlock | Seriously... What is a hypervisor? | 18:54 |
| bekks | LayAnotherBlock: that thing that gives you a vm. | 18:54 |
| LayAnotherBlock | Ok. VirtualBox | 18:55 |
| bekks | LayAnotherBlock: and there are zillion ways to detect that you are using a vm. | 18:55 |
| rallosvan | LayAnotherBlock: it ain't going to work, sorry to disappoint you | 18:55 |

| ubottu | ms49-up: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 19:05 |

| LayAnotherBlock | And what is it like? | 19:09 |

| fs1 | To mount fat32 as rw I would write "sudo mount -t vfat -o umask=000 /dev/sda1 /mount/ESP" right??? | 19:09 |
| Walex2 | fs1: RW/RO and permissions are different things. | 19:10 |
| fs1 | hmm.. so how do i get permissions to copy files to that mounted partition | 19:10 |
| fs1 | if RW does not give me permissions | 19:11 |
| bekks | fs1: mount it as rw, and grant permissions. | 19:11 |
| Walex2 | fs1: if you want proper permissions to yourself, use -o 'uid=....' | 19:11 |
| choon | after install samba, I coudn't share my folder due to error "255 an smbd mat not running" can someone help? | 19:11 |

| bcuda_ | bekks: is http://askubuntu.com/questions/325037/installing-nvidia-drivers-on-ubuntu-12-04 the way you'd recommend? | 19:12 |
| LayAnotherBlock | well this happens when i load the install for Ubuntu and hit Install | 19:13 |
| bcuda_ | bekks: for a 755M? (the OP had a 630M) | 19:13 |
| choon | yess, I use this command "restart smbd" but I got message "unknown job" | 19:13 |
| bekks | bcuda_: No. I suggest: Install the latest nvidia driver from th ubuntu7 repo. Do not use any PPA if you dont need to. | 19:13 |

| ms49-up | can any one tell me where can i find this folder "sites-available " if i have LAMP installed | 19:14 |
| LayAnotherBlock | I need a blank cd... a virtual one... | 19:15 |

| bh | Where can I see per-package results for popcon? I'm thinking of dropping support for some old distros and I'd like to know if anyone is actually using the package | 19:16 |

| fs1 | "udo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/flash -o dmask=000,fmask=111" would not work, I need to use -o uid? | 19:16 |
| Danato | LayAnotherBlock: a blank virtual cd? lol wtf | 19:16 |
| bh | and http://popcon.ubuntu.com/main/ seems sort of broken | 19:16 |
| ms49-up | #Apachefriends | 19:16 |
| SwSavant | fs1: That might be 'sudo' .. | 19:16 |
| fs1 | yeah sudo* | 19:17 |
| SwSavant | Ok just checking | 19:17 |
| SwSavant | Is there an error message that is meaningful? | 19:17 |
| fs1 | You ask me? | 19:18 |
| SwSavant | Yes, sorry. | 19:18 |
| fs1 | yeah i could not copy files to the mounted partition, it said i have no permissions | 19:18 |
| SwSavant | fs1: Can you read files? Did the mount work? | 19:19 |
| fs1 | yeah but the mounted partition was empty | 19:19 |
| SwSavant | fs1: Were you expecting files there? | 19:20 |
| fs1 | yeah but ubuntu does not seem to copy any files to the ESP... | 19:21 |
| bekks | fs1: then what was the mount command? what are the permissions? which command do you use to copy? | 19:21 |
| Danato | ran the command whatis git and I got this | 19:22 |
| Danato | git (1) - the stupid content tracker | 19:22 |
| Danato | this thing is quite funny | 19:22 |
| SwSavant | bekks: it is above | 19:23 |
| bekks | SwSavant: we dont know wether it is still the command used. | 19:23 |
| shadows | Danato: interesting find :) | 19:23 |
| Danato | shadows: lol im not sure if they published it on purpose or someone was trolling and forgot to erase it | 19:24 |
| shadows | fs1: you could try 'pmount' if your objective is to mount and access files as a user | 19:24 |
| Ashva | bekks: I check the page but it didn't solve the problem | 19:25 |
| shadows | Danato: it sounds like something Linus or another git developer would do because "documentation is for other people to do" and then it just never got updated; I think if you wanted to submit a patch and attach to a bug report it would probably get fixed and just that no one has done it yet | 19:26 |
| fs1 | i used "sudo mount -t vfat -0 umask=000 /dev/sda1 /mount/ESP" | 19:27 |
| jmgk | hi all | 19:27 |
| fs1 | maybe "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/flash -o dmask=000,fmask=111" would work? | 19:27 |

| ubottu | choon: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:28 |
| Danato | shadows: then knock yourself out, I dont know what "the stupid content tracker" was supposed to be. thats why i used the command in the first place | 19:28 |
| LtRipley | bekks: don't ask me why, but 'apt-get remove gnome-shell' solved the problem | 19:28 |

| PresidentObama | The United States supports Linux. | 19:29 |
| Danato | is this some kind of conspiracy? | 19:29 |

| kexibq | shadows: the elementary os one is exquisite | 19:41 |
| AssociateX | I just tried to install Opera but apt-get and synaptic don't find it. What is the proper way to install, and why doesn't it just install? | 19:41 |
| ikonia | blaked: yeah, so you can't "overwrite" (note you are doing echo > file) like that | 19:41 |
| OerHeks | AssociateX, use the download from their site | 19:42 |
| chack | какое минимальное оборудование необходимо для Ultimate Edition 3.4? | 19:42 |
| OerHeks | http://www.opera.com/download/guide/?os=linux | 19:42 |
| kexibq | chack: In english, please | 19:43 |
| blaked | ikonia: seems to work for some people. also the "prlimit" command supposedly replaced the echoing-to-proc approach http://serverfault.com/questions/201207/set-max-file-limit-on-a-running-process | 19:43 |
| AssociateX | OerHeks, funny, but I was already doing that. Why is not just part of a regular install though. | 19:43 |
| chack | Sorry. what is the minimum equipment necessary for the what is the Ultimate Edition 3.4? | 19:43 |
| shadows | kexibq: briefly there's a Unity component you can control with compizconfig-settings-manager (ccsm) and that also has alternatives for task switchers | 19:43 |

| dougl | hassen, viva linux! | 19:55 |
| pfifo | sod off? this is an english channel shadows | 19:55 |
| shadows | to "go away" | 19:56 |
| shadows | or just be more permissive | 19:56 |
| pfifo | shadows: uninstall it? | 19:56 |
| shadows | do you know, would uninstalling apparmor break the Ubuntu system? | 19:56 |
| pfifo | shadows: Ive never tried, dont do it if you dont know how to fix it | 19:57 |
| shadows | pfifo: thanks for talking anyways | 19:58 |

| OerHeks | ubuntu does not use ctrl alt backspace, by default. | 20:18 |
| OerHeks | !reisub | 20:18 |
| ubottu | In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 20:18 |

| yorwos-pc | hi all | 20:36 |
| smaudet | Oh and my Nvidia drivers are fairly up-to-date, there is a new version I'm currently downloading/installing | 20:36 |
| remoteCTRL | Walex2: i somewhat does, but i haven't quite figured out, what criteria it applies to open or drop tabs... | 20:36 |
| yorwos-pc | could some1 guide me hot to use a firewire audio card with ardour on ubuntu studio 13.10 ??? it seems to be recognisable from ffado-mixer | 20:37 |
| remoteCTRL | anyways chromium lacks this function, so you have to ressort to something like tab memory purge | 20:37 |
| remoteCTRL | which is cumbersome if you have to trigger it manually each time your prone to swapping again... | 20:38 |

| Megabyte | You know, bindfs is quite useful to protect my disk, allowing only certain areas to be written... | 20:39 |
| smaudet | brb installing driver | 20:39 |
| Walex2 | Megabyte: you can use AppArmor or similar for that... | 20:41 |
| Megabyte | Walex2, What is AppArmor, and how do I use it? | 20:42 |
| Walex2 | Megabyte: it is the security protection system used by Ubuntu and other distros... Look at '/etc/apparmor.d/' for typical rule files | 20:43 |
| Walex2 | Megabyte: also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppArmor | 20:43 |

| k1l | Modrick: #ubuntu-touch is the channel | 21:11 |
| Modrick | Okay thanks. I was unable to retrieve the channel list | 21:11 |
| Walex2 | pvl1: anyhow it is very esy using something like 'aptitude' to get them back. | 21:11 |
| pvl1 | Walex2: i know. more importntly am i gonna break anything patching the sourceforge 1.7 over the apt 1.6? | 21:11 |
| linuxuz3r | what is dnsmasq for | 21:11 |
| pvl1 | sianh: why are you installing ffmpeg | 21:12 |
| sianh | pvl1, to convert videos to gifs | 21:12 |
| Walex2 | pvl1: depends.... Anyhow consider looking into bsckports, or paying some money for Crossover Office | 21:13 |
| pvl1 | Walex2: im broke. bsckports you say, ill check it out | 21:13 |
| pvl1 | sianh: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/07/qgifer-converts-video-to-gif-supports.html | 21:13 |
| sianh | thank you pvl1, I hope it supports ogv | 21:14 |
| pvl1 | sianh: in any case, how are you install ffmpeg that it requires the nvidia driver? i just checked and that is not a dep | 21:14 |
| stetho | Hi - can anyone tell me what I might be missing? If I type sudo do-release-upgrade ( or sudo do-release-upgrade -d as a test) in to a 13.04 server, I get "No new release found" - is there something else I have to do to get to 13.10? | 21:15 |
| pvl1 | stetho: apt-get update | 21:15 |
| k1l | stetho: what does "lsb_release -r" give you? | 21:15 |
| pvl1 | stetho: and enable the repos | 21:15 |
| sianh | pvl1, apt-get install ffmpeg | 21:16 |
| pvl1 | sianh: thats very odd. maybe nvidia is flagged for isntall by something else | 21:16 |
| stetho | apt-get update has ben run, lsb_release -r give 13.04 and what repos? | 21:18 |
| sianh | pvl1, but it's just with ffmpeg, for example, gnome-shell doesn't ask me for nvidia, it's really weird | 21:18 |
| pvl1 | sianh: i would try using aptitude in this case | 21:19 |
| sianh | pvl1, same thing | 21:19 |
| pvl1 | sianh: you cant deselect the nvidia driver and force install? | 21:19 |

| trism | gianko: yeah that is kind of strange, you may end up having to just rebuild it yourself with nostrip | 22:18 |
| ptyyy | Hi guys, I've suddenly got no access to the right click context menu on the desktop. Running 13.10 with unity. Any idea what I may have done? | 22:18 |
| TauNeutrino | ;D haha | 22:19 |
| trism | gianko: I'm actually looking through there and it doesn't seem like all the precise ones are there, only later ones for raring | 22:19 |
| mainmeister | \ | 22:20 |
| skilo | what are the chances of us getting kernel 3.13 in ubuntu 13.10? | 22:20 |
| k1l | skilo: with mainline kernels but not official kernel upgrades in final releases | 22:21 |
| skilo | wut | 22:21 |
| k1l | skilo: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds | 22:21 |
| skilo | seems kinda risky, Might break stuff | 22:23 |
| pvl1 | skilo: im on 14 | 22:23 |
| pvl1 | skilo: wait i lied | 22:23 |
| pvl1 | skilo: 3.11.0-14 | 22:23 |
| skilo | 14 dies not exist yet lol | 22:23 |
| k1l | skilo: that is on own risk, yes. | 22:23 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: you could install kernel 3.13 though it's RC phase | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | as in it's still testing | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | kernel 3.12 is stable | 22:24 |
| skilo | i want those power saving features to help battery life | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: that's why I'm using kernel 3.12 myself | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | Akaigo-Arc 3.12.0-031200-generic x86_64 Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Codename: quantal | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: what graphics card do you have? is this laptop or desktop? | 22:25 |
| gianko | trism: mmmh... look in any case here is the error upon "fakeroot apt-get source -b apache2" with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="debug nostrip" and DEB_CFLAGS_APPEND="-finstrument-functions" set: http://pastebin.com/nj7UEQW6 | 22:25 |
| k1l | skilo: 14.04 will get a 3.12 kernel with some 3..13 backports. but that is all still no stable. so as enduser you have to wait anyway | 22:25 |
| skilo | i have intel hd integrated graphics | 22:25 |
| skilo | ubuntu detects it as "Sandy bridge" | 22:25 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: what ubuntu version? | 22:25 |
| skilo | 13.10 | 22:26 |
| trism | gianko: don't see any error there | 22:26 |
| trism | gianko: might have missed stderr | 22:26 |
| gianko | trism: you are rightr, sorry I gave you the wrong log | 22:27 |
| bekks | skilo: you have an Intel Sandy Bridge CPU - so thats expected. | 22:27 |
| skilo | everything is intel on my laptop | 22:27 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: hmmmm.... I'm not sure if dpm (referring to radeon's dynamic power management) works with intel.... but seeing how you have 13.10, which uses kernel 3.11, you could try to enable dpm | 22:27 |
| skilo | intel wifi intel pentium b40 cpu inte hd graphics | 22:27 |
| bekks | skilo: yes, and? | 22:27 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: open up terminal, run gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub | 22:28 |
| bekks | skilo: "Sandy Bridge" is the Intel code name for your CPU generation. | 22:28 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: no wait.... | 22:28 |
| universal | kernel panic.....what to do ? | 22:29 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: yeah I don't think radeon's dpm will work at all | 22:29 |
| skilo | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) | 22:29 |
| bekks | skilo: so you have an intel gpu. | 22:29 |
| skilo | everything is intel on my laptop | 22:29 |
| bekks | skilo: And...? | 22:29 |
| bekks | skilo: So whats the issue at that point? | 22:30 |
| skilo | no issue | 22:30 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: if your gpu is intel, there's no point unless you got a radeon. | 22:30 |
| skilo | i just heard the new kernel 3.13 will have new power saving features | 22:30 |
| skilo | and i want them | 22:30 |
| k1l | skilo: i showed you your options. either you take mainline kernel builds with own risk (or compile own kernels) or you wait for 14.04 or 14.10 to get official ubuntu support | 22:30 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: for what graphics card? intel, radeon, or nvidia? | 22:30 |
| Ari-Yang | or all three? | 22:31 |
| hovalhydro | did jupiter power management project die? | 22:31 |
| === Danato_ is now known as Danato | ||
| hitsujiTMO_ | skilo: 3.12 has new intel power management, 3.13 has new radeon power management. the intel power management in 3.11 is the best you'll get | 22:31 |
| skilo | i read somewhere that ubuntu 14.04 will have 3.13 kernel is that true? | 22:31 |
| hitsujiTMO_ | skilo: 3.12 has new nvidia power management, 3.13 has new radeon power management. the intel power management in 3.11 is the best you'll get | 22:32 |
| k1l | skilo: "you heard" something. but even kernel 3.13 is not final now. so how should ubuntu give some official support for what is not even made final now? | 22:32 |
| skilo | because i want it | 22:32 |
| k1l | skilo: as i said you: ubuntu 14.04 will have 3.12 with some backports | 22:32 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: you can download and install kernel 3.13-rc2 from here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.13-rc2-trusty/ | 22:32 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: are you on 64bit? | 22:32 |
| k1l | skilo: what you want doesnt change the options that i told you got | 22:32 |
| skilo | yes | 22:32 |
| gianko | trism, here http://pastebin.com/pqLn6rSu | 22:33 |
| skilo | im going to call shuttleworth and tell him i want the new 3.13 kernel in ubuntu 14.04 | 22:33 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: okay, so then you'd download the headers amd64, headers all, and image amd64. Throw it all into a folder, cd into it with terminal and run sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 22:33 |
| k1l | skilo: good luck with that. | 22:33 |
| jessic1 | I can't seem to kill a process (that I stopped with ctrl-z) | 22:34 |
| jessic1 | when I use: ps aux | grep ubuntu | 22:34 |
| jessic1 | it shows the process | 22:34 |
| skilo | but it will probably break stuff | 22:34 |
| jessic1 | the 1st column with numbers is the pid correct? | 22:34 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: it may or may not | 22:34 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: if you aren't using any proprietary drivers, you should be good | 22:35 |
| jessic1 | I execute: sudo kill pid, but the process is still there | 22:35 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: if you are, then I suggest you switch over to open source | 22:35 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: that's what I did before installing kernel 3.10 on ubuntu 12.10, make sure all the drivers were set to open source | 22:35 |
| skilo | all my drivers are included with the kernel since intel is opensource | 22:35 |
| bekks | jessic1: are you still in the same terminal where you started it? | 22:35 |
| skilo | i may not bother with it, My battery life is ok now i get about 3 hours, It's mainly watching videos that kills my battery | 22:36 |
| jessic1 | bekks, I think so. I sshed into my server. I ran a python script, pressed ctrl+z to stop it, then I tried to kill the process as I described | 22:37 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: perhaps use....vaapi (ew)when watching videos? | 22:37 |
| jessic1 | but it is still there | 22:37 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: what video player do you use? | 22:37 |
| skilo | i use VLC | 22:37 |
| bekks | jessic1: press fg, then press ctrl c | 22:37 |
| jessic1 | bekks that did the trick! but why? | 22:38 |
| trism | gianko: that's weird, I still don't see an error there other than it saying 'Error', I'm gonna have to look at the precise package, I'll let you know if I find anything | 22:38 |
| Ari-Yang | skilo: VLc...oh :V well look into using vaapi with vlc. Or you can install mpv, fork of mplayer/mplayer2 that I highly recommend | 22:38 |
| Snake2k | jessic1: you can view the running processes via 'jobs' then sudo killall -9 -v {thatthing} | 22:38 |
| skilo | well right now im using Xubuntu so i have vlc and parole | 22:39 |
| bekks | jessic1: The process was in the background and it was not allowed for him to do something in the background. Not even killing himself. | 22:39 |
| Snake2k | jessic1: ctrl+z doesn | 22:39 |
| Snake2k | jessic1: ctrl+z doesn't kill it | 22:39 |
| hovalhydro | I am kind of stuck with VLC, it seems to be the only player that plays everything. Also it can record streaming video. | 22:39 |
| jessic1 | ahh ok, so bg means background, and ctrl+c is to kill | 22:39 |
| TinoDidriksen | Does Server 13.10 still do the annoying NIC re-labelling if you move the installation to a different machine with a different NIC? | 22:39 |
| Snake2k | jessic1: Yep | 22:39 |

| k1l | universal: "sudo apt-get update&&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 23:28 |
| universal | k1l: thats for full system update but I only want kernel update | 23:28 |
| k1l | universal: run the apt-get update and see which kernels are available (with apt-cache search linux-image) and then install that package | 23:30 |

| === mono is now known as Guest9748 | ||

| universal | k1l: not now | 23:33 |
| universal | k1l: is it necessary ? | 23:33 |
| k1l | yes. it updates the package listing. without that you will not see what new packages are available | 23:34 |
| universal | ok | 23:34 |
| naillwind | has anyone experience that apt-get update is hanging on.. "0% [Connecting to nl.archive.ubuntu.com (2001:7b8:3:37:213:136:29:218)] [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1360:8c01::18)]" and later one eg. "97% [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1360:8c01::15)]" ? | 23:34 |
| universal | k1l: is there any problem like system malfunction or instability if I update only kernel ? | 23:35 |
| picca | naillwind: somebody will have | 23:35 |
