Pessimist | I want to create a GUI application on gnu/linux distributions. Which toolkit should I choose? Primarly the target would be Ubuntu. I am thinking about gtk3 | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
Atlantic777 | Pessimist: stick with qt. | 00:01 |
Viking667 | you've pretty much got a choice of qt, gtk3 or something more .... exotic. | 00:01 |
Atlantic777 | It's way more comfortable than gtk. | 00:01 |
Viking667 | gtk3 will certainly be supported on Ubuntu, qt however ... good question. If any kde programs are installed, then qt will be. | 00:02 |
Atlantic777 | Pessimist: feel free to ask me for more info. :) | 00:02 |

TuN | if i want to check how did a process got automatically killed, how can I found out? what would be the error? | 00:05 |
eksip | try to run proccess in terminal, usualy it says the error | 00:06 |
Atlantic777 | Viking667: please, take a look at this | 00:06 |
eksip | and the error google | 00:06 |
jhutchins | Viking667: I think that might have been Portuguese - there's a !pt factoid. | 00:06 |
TuN | eksip, well when I run it, there is no error | 00:06 |
TuN | but after 2 seconds | 00:06 |
TuN | the process gets killed, and i can't findout what's the error. | 00:06 |
jhutchins | TuN: To begin with, launch it in a terminal window. | 00:07 |
eksip | jhutchins: and then | 00:07 |
eksip | ? | 00:07 |
TuN | jhutchins, i am running it in a terminal; doing ./psybnc to run it | 00:08 |
eksip | no Tun find the path | 00:09 |
TuN | and it runs fine, it does not show any error, even when I do ps x, it shows the process. but after 2 seconds, it gets killed | 00:09 |
eksip | to find the path use this whereis | 00:09 |
TuN | i know the path, i'm running it from the main directory of that psybnc | 00:10 |

Atlantic777 | And one more thing... Can I use all three displays (VGA, HDMI and LVDS) at the same time? I have ATI Radeon HD 6670M | 00:10 |
FloodBot1 | Atlantic777: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:10 |
Atlantic777 | If it's not possible, I'm switching back to the intel only. | 00:10 |
glitsj16 | TuN: not familiar with psybnc, but it might have some command switches to give more verbose error output .. does it have a man page or a --help switch you can check? | 00:10 |
eksip | when process stops, there no message in terminal at all? | 00:10 |
Viking667 | Atlantic777: just having a look now. But next time, try and say more on one line, not over multiple lines, eh? | 00:10 |
TuN | yeah no message | 00:10 |
eksip | i do not know | 00:11 |
TuN | that is the strangest part. it was working alright before I installed oidentd. now when I installed oidentd, it gets killed. | 00:11 |
delt | btw the laptop goes to sleep when i close the lid, even if i configured it to do nothing in the xfce settings | 00:11 |
Viking667 | hm. looks okay, how's it "messed up"? | 00:12 |
Viking667 | i.e. can you put a window across the two boundaries? | 00:12 |
Atlantic777 | Viking667: everything should be only on one display. | 00:12 |
Viking667 | hm. So you actually want one display disabled? | 00:13 |
Atlantic777 | And in the picture taken with camera there are terminals which are shown on both displays and on different positions. | 00:13 |
Atlantic777 | No, I want to look it like this: http://i.imgur.com/Q3lCqti.png | 00:14 |
Viking667 | uhm, do you realise I can't tell the difference between any of the three pictures? | 00:15 |

lickalott | dolmiogrin, just FYI you'll run into a similar issue if you ever decide to roll with windows 7 (once you get sick of win8) | 00:21 |

Viking667 | ugh. It's hybrid. I forgot you told me that.... | 00:21 |
lickalott | I would re-install Shotz | 00:21 |
Shotz | Oh | 00:21 |
Shotz | I've transfered Motherboards on Linux before (installed to a USB key (full install) and numberous mobos worked fine) | 00:22 |
lickalott | you're going to have different drivers for the mobo and it will be easier with a fresh install vs trying to figure out what packages/drivers need to be removed and added | 00:22 |

delt | yeah | 01:51 |
delt | pulseaudio thing? | 01:51 |
schone | hello | 01:51 |
Beldar | bjornemannen, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone try to give it more than 2 min eh. | 01:51 |
glitsj16 | delt: that's a known bug, look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2182038&p=12822062#post12822062 for an easy fix | 01:52 |
bjornemannen | thanks Beldar | 01:52 |
schone | is there an easy way to make a bootable ubuntu instance on a USB stick with persistent storage that will work on a macbook? | 01:52 |
Beldar | bjornemannen, That shows 12.04 you might try a search with your release if different, no problem. | 01:52 |
delt | glitsj16: thanks | 01:53 |
glitsj16 | delt: you're welcome, about the shell scripts .. do they have to be available system-wide? | 01:53 |
delt | glitsj16: preferably | 01:56 |
delt | glitsj16: actually on my slackware machines i prepend $HOME/scripts:/usr/scripts to the path | 01:56 |
kay______ | is there an alternate ubuntu iso for 13.10 | 01:57 |
kay______ | or just 12.04.3 LTS | 01:57 |
glitsj16 | delt: you can easily place those in your ~/bin too, that directory gets automatically prepended to the PATH if it exists | 01:57 |
ianorlin | kay not for ubuntu with unity | 01:57 |
rww | kay______: no, http://askubuntu.com/questions/207635/why-are-there-no-alternate-cds | 01:57 |
glitsj16 | delt: or prepend to the system-wide PATH in /etc/environment | 01:58 |
unicornjedi | hello, I have a problem with apt-get. (-5 - No address associated with hostname) | 01:59 |
delt | glitsj16: that seems to contain the path for root | 01:59 |
delt | (as in superuser account) | 01:59 |
unicornjedi | hello, I have a problem with apt-get. (-5 - No address associated with hostname) | 02:00 |
Milapurr | hey, im trying to boot to a ubuntu partition on dev/sda3 how do i do that | 02:01 |
Beldar | unicornjedi, Can you run the update and upgrade and pastebin the info. | 02:01 |
glitsj16 | delt: your user gets that too, i don't think it is specifically limited to root (which can be set in /root/.bashrc) | 02:01 |
unicornjedi | Beldar, sure thing, just a sec | 02:02 |
Beldar | Milapurr, NOt in yo9ur grub menu? | 02:02 |
Beldar | your* | 02:02 |
delt | glitsj16: oh yeah it does, you're right' | 02:02 |
unicornjedi | Beldar, btw im using ubuntu server | 02:03 |
Milapurr | nope, beldar it was dded over from my external, i dont understand how to install grub2 onto it either | 02:03 |
Beldar | !grub | Milapurr | 02:03 |
ubottu | Milapurr: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 02:03 |
Beldar | Milapurr, This a dualboot, and if so with what exactly? | 02:04 |
Milapurr | its not a dual boot, its hard to explain really | 02:04 |
unicornjedi | Beldar, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6688370/ | 02:05 |
Milapurr | let me load into the working copy and stop using this iphone app | 02:05 |
unicornjedi | Beldar, the error went away.. this is strange... | 02:05 |
Beldar | Milapurr, Heh, well it may take you doing so at some point the bootrepair app may get you fixed though. | 02:05 |
unicornjedi | Beldar, before I got this error W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-updates/universe/i18n/Translation-en_US Something wicked happened resolving 'us.archive.ubuntu.com:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname) | 02:05 |
luc_ | anyone knows a hardning tutorial???????? | 02:06 |
luc_ | hardening? | 02:06 |
utusan | google it | 02:06 |
mila_ | Beldar: Let me explain, I have a copy of ubuntu on my external thumbdrive. Someone said I could use DD to move that to my internal harddrive (I formatted it, now it's ext4) Gparted doesnt show me what's on it at all. | 02:06 |
Beldar | unicornjedi, You have precise and lucid hits there though that is not really normal. | 02:07 |
hipitihop | I'm on 12.04.3 and today's update which included new kernel now boots to black screen with flashing cursor. Can someone help diagnose issue pls .. some googling suggests to remove lightdm and install gdm instead | 02:07 |
unicornjedi | Beldar, i'll check out my sources.list | 02:07 |
Beldar | mila_, was the usb a full install? | 02:07 |
mila_ | USB has Ubuntu installed on it. | 02:08 |
Beldar | mila_, a full install, or a iso loaded? | 02:08 |
mila_ | Usb also has 10 gb used and I didnt want to lose it | 02:08 |
mila_ | ...Its a full install I believe. | 02:08 |
unicornjedi | Beldar, yea, I unintentionally removed the # before the lucid universe packages | 02:08 |
Beldar | mila_, Cool, if a full install you are just missing the grub stuff in the mbr if you are on a msdos setup, the bootrepair app should fix this. | 02:09 |
luc_ | any news about mir ? ??? ? ? ? | 02:09 |
Beldar | !mir | 02:09 |
ubottu | Mir is the next-generation display server currently under development by Canonical and Ubuntu. It's slated for inclusion in Ubuntu 14.04. For more information on it, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/Spec . For code, see https://launchpad.net/mir | 02:09 |
mila_ | Beldar: the hard drive has nothing actually on it the only thing on it is recovery and dellutilities dev/sda1 and 2. 3 has ubuntu | 02:10 |
Craig| | Anyone know if there still is a osx channel on freenode | 02:10 |
Craig| | I know this is Ubuntu | 02:11 |
luc_ | <ubottu> thx | 02:11 |
mila_ | Im not sure how to really go about fixing this... | 02:11 |
Beldar | mila_, Cool, you probably want a swap, I would put it inside a extended, so you have room for more logical partitions if needed. I assume your partition amounts are correct here. | 02:11 |
bjornemannen | Beldar: when i have the latest IOS in my iphone i cant connect it ?! | 02:12 |
Beldar | bjornemannen, I have never had a iphone probably few here, the web might be your search try askubuntu. | 02:12 |
bjornemannen | ok thanks | 02:13 |
glitsj16 | !alis | Craig| .. try looking for osx | 02:13 |
ubottu | Craig| .. try looking for osx: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 02:13 |
Beldar | mila_, From a live cd use this tool to get grub loaded. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 02:13 |
anton02 | how do you set up a samba4 share in ubuntu 13.10? | 02:13 |
mila_ | How do I create a swap | 02:13 |
Craig| | Most likely there is some iTunes alternative for Ubuntu or wine it | 02:13 |
mila_ | my sda is from 1 - 7 one is a linux-swap | 02:14 |
Beldar | mila_, I use gparted you could do kit from a live cd or once you get booted in install gparted and do it from there, feel free to ask the channel, when you get ready though | 02:14 |
js_doode | i have an old laptop: thinkpad a30, I'd like to do some command line dev testing. rather than learn a new distro. was thinking, can I do an ubuntu minimal install and just have the barebones, including a less resource-intensive windows manager? | 02:15 |
js_doode | was running lubuntu on it and it kept locking up | 02:15 |
Beldar | mila_, Is this a computer that had W8 on it a uefi? | 02:15 |
mila_ | ? | 02:15 |
js_doode | definitely because it was resource-intensive at least for this laptop. | 02:15 |
mila_ | no it had windows 7 | 02:16 |
mila_ | and its saying the hard drive is busy now? | 02:16 |
Beldar | mila_, "<mila_> my sda is from 1 - 7 one is a linux-swap" can you explain exactly what this means, you mentioned only 3 partitions so far. | 02:16 |
mila_ | yeah. | 02:16 |
peyam | js_doode, try Arch | 02:17 |
peyam | without gui! if it's what do want | 02:17 |
peyam | js_doode, but I never tried it before | 02:18 |
Beldar | mila_, question marks and sigke word answers are not helpfull be specific please. State exactly what you do not understand and answer questions fully. | 02:18 |
gordonjcp | js_doode: yes, just install the minimal iso | 02:18 |
Beldar | single* | 02:18 |
gordonjcp | js_doode: it'll give you a basic bootable command-line system | 02:18 |
mila_ | sda1 fat 16 dell utility Flags: Diagnostic, Unallocated, sda2: recovery nfts flag: boot, sda4 extended, sda5 ext4, sda6linux swap, sda7 ext4, unallocated 911.88 (Deleted ubuntu that was dded over) | 02:18 |
gordonjcp | js_doode: as peyam says, you could give Arch a shot, but I ended up switching back to Ubuntu because Arch spent most if its time broken | 02:18 |
gordonjcp | *of | 02:19 |
Beldar | mila_, Looks like a uefi set up | 02:19 |
mila_ | uefi? | 02:19 |
Beldar | !uefi | mila_ look here for info. | 02:19 |
ubottu | mila_ look here for info.: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 02:19 |
rww | that is not a GPT setup, which is presumably what you mean | 02:19 |
js_doode | gordonjcp: i'd love to, but it has a high learning curve. | 02:19 |
peyam | mila_, can you say again what ur problem was. didn't get it | 02:19 |
js_doode | i'd rather get to the coding than learn a new distro. | 02:19 |
Beldar | rww, Hard to tell with the user not giving any real answers. | 02:19 |
mila_ | I dded over s ubuntu install and I cant boot into it. | 02:19 |
js_doode | if i have time i guess i'll have to look into it. | 02:19 |
js_doode | thanks guys. | 02:20 |
rww | Beldar: not hard at all, GPT doesn't have extended partitions | 02:20 |
peyam | mila_, you dded on ur partition on ur harddisk? if so, it would not work! it will say the hdd is busy! | 02:20 |
Beldar | rww, I'm hesitant to believe exactly what they post to be honest. | 02:20 |
rww | mila_: to create a swap filesystem given an existing swap partition, sudo mkswap /dev/sda6 (for example) | 02:20 |
mila_ | oh. okay | 02:20 |
delt | how can i remap the left windowz button to alt_l? | 02:21 |
peyam | I tried it once with debian and it didn't work, so if debian not works no other distro will | 02:21 |
mila_ | It now has a swa... | 02:21 |
mila_ | uh. | 02:21 |
delt | xmodmap doesn't seem to be doing the trick :( | 02:21 |
mila_ | sda3 is now 911 gb of swap | 02:21 |
mila_ | o-o; | 02:21 |
Beldar | heh | 02:21 |
mila_ | I need another partition under it dont I? | 02:22 |
mila_ | oops. | 02:22 |
mila_ | i deleted the entire thing | 02:22 |
peyam | rww, what is mila_ s problem? | 02:22 |
mila_ | well there goes recovery and dell disk utility. | 02:22 |
mila_ | oops. | 02:22 |
rww | peyam: they asked how to create a swap. i told them *shrug* | 02:23 |
mila_ | i wanna dd over my copy of ubuntu to my internal hard drive, Im running ubuntu from a thumbdrive | 02:23 |

rww | so install Ubuntu and then copy it over? | 02:25 |

mila_ | im using dd to copy my usb stick to an empty hard drive thats formatted to ext4 | 02:25 |
peyam | mila_, don't panik now! | 02:25 |
peyam | mila_, and? | 02:26 |
delt | mila_: that will create an image file of the whole filesystem that's on the usb stick | 02:26 |
mila_ | ...does that mean it wont boot into it? | 02:26 |
delt | ...um, depends what you're trying to do | 02:26 |
peyam | mila_, if u have bootable usb stick of ubuntu then just install ir like you do in normal cases | 02:26 |
glitsj16 | catalase_: any particular reason you don't use the libapache2-mod-proxy-html from the repos? | 02:27 |
mila_ | its not a bootable, it's actually ubuntu on a usb stick. | 02:27 |
peyam | so how can it be boot if its not? | 02:27 |
mila_ | it's bootable but it's not an iso | 02:27 |
mila_ | i really wish procast would work on here so I could explain better. | 02:28 |
catalase_ | glitsj16, i don't have it i believe | 02:28 |

catalase_ | 12.04 server | 02:29 |
catalase_ | no idea what apt-cache policy is lol | 02:29 |

Edler | can't make vsftpd 2.3.5 work with chroot local usres | 02:32 |

glitsj16 | catalase_: apt-cache policy is (one) way of finding out if you have a certain package in your sources, and it tells you version, if installed etc | 02:33 |
hipitihop | How can I reconfigure my NVIDIA setup so that client and kernel modules match | 02:34 |
glitsj16 | catalase_: libapache2-mod-proxy-html is available on precise | 02:35 |
catalase_ | ok | 02:36 |
pomke | In 13.04 (fresh install) I launch Software & Updates, goto 'Additional Drivers' and it says 'No additional drivers available'.. yet if I lspci I clearly see 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 [GeForce GTX 560 Ti] is present. Does Ubuntu not support this very common card ? | 02:38 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: can you elaborate a bit on what you mean by nvidia client? | 02:39 |
delt | nice that xubuntu's default UID is the same as slackware, so all my stuff stays consistent across machines :D :D | 02:39 |
spok | Hi, I want to install Ubuntu Touch on my Nexus 4. The question for me is: when it will be not only "for developers and industry partners only"? | 02:40 |
Beldar | !touch | spok | 02:40 |
ubottu | spok: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch | 02:40 |

hipitihop | glitsj16, kernel.log shows: "NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 304.108, but this kernel module has the version 304.88" which coincides with my xorg log message "failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel model" | 02:40 |
hipitihop | glitsj16, machine boots to black screen and blinking cursor but has tty1,2 etc | 02:41 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: what nvidia package did you install? and what version of ubuntu are you seeing this error on? | 02:42 |
hipitihop | glitsj16, machine worked fine until this mornings update which included new kernel etc. have tried grub to previous kernel boot but no better | 02:42 |
Beldar | hipitihop, Have you tried a failsafe x or nomodeset boot | 02:42 |
hipitihop | glitsj16, 12.04.3 | 02:43 |
hipitihop | Beldar, is failsafe available from grub menu ? | 02:43 |
Beldar | hipitihop, Yes in the recovery menu | 02:44 |
* hipitihop reboots an loooks in grub menus | 02:44 | |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: probably your dkms is not able to build the nvidia module for the new kernel, i suspect that earlier error is related .. | 02:44 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: i'd try to purge all nvidia packages you have and reinstall nvidia-current .. but follow Beldar's advice i'd say and look at the logs first | 02:45 |
YaMoonSun | I installed Lubuntu 13.10 on a dell dimension 8250 and I get an error on boot up - Is it due to the swap being first on the drive and labeled as primary? Should it be at the end of drive and logical? | 02:49 |
hipitihop | Beldar, failsafex also seems to end in blinking cursor, last messages are from mountall | 02:50 |

hipitihop | Beldar, how do I try the nomodeset boot ? | 02:52 |
TheMadcapper | Trying to boot off an Ubuntu install disc on one of these old systems: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00387088 | 02:52 |
TheMadcapper | But I keep getting "compatible bus not detected, module not inserted." shortly after boot. :\ | 02:52 |
Beldar | hipitihop, I know very little about nvidia, my effort was just desktop access | 02:52 |
hipitihop | Beldar, ok thanks | 02:52 |
Beldar | !nomodeset | hipitihop if needed | 02:52 |
ubottu | hipitihop if needed: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 02:52 |
YaMoonSun | Anyone..? | 02:54 |
kostkon | !anyone | YaMoonSun | 02:54 |
ubottu | YaMoonSun: 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. | 02:54 |
kostkon | wrong factoid | 02:54 |

apb1963 | Random Fun fact: Printers can be managed through a web interface at localhost:631/admin | 02:55 |
YaMoonSun | Everyone is afk huh? | 02:55 |
TheMadcapper | The system boots XP just fine | 02:56 |
TheMadcapper | Not sure why "compatible bus not detected, module not inserted." would be happening | 02:56 |
TheMadcapper | Unless..... | 02:56 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: i'll try .. is this the machine you're irc'ing from? just need to be sure we can communicate if you can get into recovery mode | 02:56 |
sander__ | How do I check which apt package a given file is located in? | 02:57 |
hipitihop | glitsj16, no irc on another laptop, only thing available to me on victim machine is tty 1,2 etc i.e. I can login after <alt><F1> | 02:58 |
Beldar | YaMoonSun, what is the error, and can you get to the desktop? | 02:59 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: if you can login you'll need to make sure you have network access to be able to install nvidia-current .. if you do try a "sudo apt-get purge nvidia-*" first, after that "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" and reboot to check again | 03:00 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: you can always run a "sudo dkms status" before doing those and do another after to compare what's happening | 03:01 |
TheMadcapper | Nope. Nevermind. I have no idea why it's doing this. :\ | 03:02 |
TheMadcapper | Google doesn't seem to be of any help, either. | 03:02 |
hipitihop | glitsj16, network access confirmed... | 03:03 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: the different numbers in your error are a bit weird though, i can't find anything in regular precise repos for nvidia with the 304.108 as version # .. do you use any PPA's? | 03:03 |
glitsj16 | i mean PPA's for nvidia | 03:03 |

Angel_Of_Sorrow | is it possible to run windows in linux vertual box successfully? | 03:08 |
Beldar | then get to it | 03:08 |
willbradley | yes | 03:08 |
Angel_Of_Sorrow | eg i have a tv capture card... will that work in windows in linux? | 03:08 |
willbradley | probably not | 03:09 |
delt | the regular ubuntu uses KDE right? | 03:09 |
willbradley | but you can try | 03:09 |
delt | ..no wait that's kubuntu | 03:09 |
willbradley | delt: no, ubuntu now uses unity | 03:09 |
delt | willbradley: ah. unity replaced.... gnome i think? | 03:09 |
willbradley | yup | 03:09 |

hipitihop | glitsj16, I tried -34 with same result earlier, but I might try -33 as it does not list the same update ? | 03:13 |
glitsj16 | hipitihop: confirmed, you could try that | 03:14 |
Beldar | Angel_Of_Sorrow, You are asking the same questions, yes windows will run in a virtual, the tv thing you will have to test. | 03:14 |
willbradley | Angel_Of_Sorrow: you can try but it's probably going to be difficult. in some virtual machine hosts you can connect a VM to a PCI device but i'm not sure about virtualbox. | 03:14 |

willbradley | bn`: in your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf is there a line that says Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled | 03:20 |
bn` | it seems to have problems with the domain names after VirtualHost | 03:20 |

willbradley | Angel_Of_Sorrow: uses xfce, lightweight | 03:38 |
Stormer97 | aye, but I cannot afford 180$ for a lenovo battery | 03:38 |
Angel_Of_Sorrow | isn that the educational edition? | 03:38 |
willbradley | Stormer97: then you'll probably end up spending double that when the 3rd party battery fails in 6-12 months :P | 03:38 |
willbradley | Angel_Of_Sorrow: nope, just uses xfce instead of unity/gnome/kde | 03:38 |

Beldar | in one post | 04:47 |

iampoz | Probelm: minitube crashes when I open it. this started after I updated nvidia to the most current driver | 04:49 |
iampoz | Sorry, Minitube crashes lightdm | 04:49 |
Beldar | iampoz, Is this latest driver in the ubuntu repos? | 04:50 |
iampoz | no | 04:51 |
Beldar | iampoz, Then not supported here is all. | 04:51 |
iampoz | this is beyond that. the lastest driver in the ubuntu repos would not work for a game | 04:51 |
iampoz | Yeah I know, but any idea on how I can figure out what the cause is? I mean, it could be minitube itself, nothing to do with ubuntu 12.04... | 04:52 |
jirido | is there a way to direct mouse pointer, scroll and click with brain in ubuntu like is possible in windows with ex emotiv epoc. iv read wikipedia on openvibe and emokit but they seem 5to be something else | 04:52 |
Beldar | iampoz, You may get help however, the key here is details IE the graphic card and drivers your using and where from is a good start. A crash with minitube and nvidia is a bit of an anomaly is all. | 04:53 |

Gallomimia | i installed kernel 3.12 from kernel.ubuntu.org and would like to keep it that way | 05:21 |
Gallomimia | it was on recommendation in this channel as a matter of fact, for better radeon support (works pretty good!) | 05:21 |
Beldar | Gallomimia, Cool, what ubuntu release is this, and I'm assuming you recognize the support conundrum here. | 05:22 |

Preytell | Is there a way to mirror the cinnamon remix packages into a local repo. I am setting up a PXE server for a client that wants to use cinnamon remix as their desktop. I can see how to install it after ubuntu is setup but not how to add it to my local repo to be installed along with everything else with PXE... | 05:23 |
Gallomimia | well that'd be pretty neat, but for now i'll settle for getting a better handle on my new desktop computer :) | 05:23 |

Beldar | Preytell, I support that, I have done a bit of volunteering for a homeless help org, and a crisis line, however training these kids to use a not really available OS as is, is kinda counter productive, using a ppa to install a desktop that may not work at times is well not good. | 05:37 |

Meldon | About the only thing I cannot get to work is 5.1 surround on Realtek/Intel HDA. | 06:01 |
anton02 | lotuspsychje: yes, it doesn't have secureboot | 06:01 |
pablo__ | Beldar, It says no OS found and no .cfg files found | 06:01 |
lotuspsychje | pero: not sure then mate, out of options here | 06:01 |
Meldon | The HDMI audio from my GTX 555 seems to work, but I need 5.1 to work on my analog output. | 06:01 |
ogden | anyone decent with ltsp and tmpfs? | 06:01 |
anton02 | lotuspsychje: but ubuntu boot-repair for some reason auto enables securboot. should i switch it off? | 06:02 |
lotuspsychje | SaberX01: does this look like a clean tut: http://elabualg.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/dual-boot-ubuntu-and-windows-8-uefi/ | 06:02 |
Meldon | Because it uses the three analog outputs on the back of my PC. | 06:02 |
ogden | also hello all :) | 06:02 |
Meldon | The other day I downloaded the Linux sources for Realtek/HDA which is apparently alsa. I built it then make install but after rebooting it hangs about halfway through the boot. | 06:02 |
SaberX01 | lotuspsychje, I'll go have a read. | 06:03 |
Meldon | Anyone know how to get it to work? | 06:03 |
Meldon | I tried enabling lfe remixing and default channels to 6 but still doesn't show up in the profile. | 06:03 |
lotuspsychje | anton02: take a look at the url i gave to SaberX01 , maybe you overlooked something? | 06:03 |
Beldar | pablo__, Something went wrong somewhere, you had a working bootable install of ubuntu at any point? | 06:04 |
Meldon | Any information is greatly appreciated. =) | 06:04 |
pablo__ | Beldar, yes I did | 06:04 |
Beldar | pablo__, A update in ubuntu brought you to this situation right? | 06:05 |
pablo__ | Beldar, when I attempt to list the files in (hd0,msdos1)/boot/ there is no grub folder | 06:05 |
pablo__ | Beldar, yes | 06:05 |
Beldar | pablo__, there a boot folder with kernels? | 06:06 |
lotuspsychje | Meldon: not sure if this is of any use for you, but there are latest realtek drivers for linux on their site, same for latest alsa drivers | 06:06 |
Gilligan94 | ok now I'm getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/6689142/ which doesnt appear to be connecting me to the router, it happens instantly weather I press the button or not | 06:06 |
Beldar | pablo__, Was the upgrade in ubuntu a partial upgrade maybe? | 06:07 |
SaberX01 | lotuspsychje, the UEFI looks ok. I think, that anyone wiching to keep Win7/8 in tack, should not bohte wih Dual boot, rather, jsut install and run *Nix via Virtualbox, and if they want a Native Install .. turn off UEFI and do a Legacy Boot from the BIOS. | 06:07 |
SaberX01 | *wishing | 06:07 |
Meldon | Yea. You have to compile them. I did with build-essentials. Then make install. Then reboot, hangs on boot. I am kinda new to Linux (again) and don't know how to look at boot logs or chroot using Live session so I can see why it won't boot. | 06:07 |
lotuspsychje | SaberX01: yes thats our wish lol, but in reality 90% wanna try 'safe' dualboot :p | 06:07 |
Meldon | Could it be that I make install without alsa being installed? | 06:07 |
Meldon | I simply installed the OS, the made the Linux driver, installed, rebooted. | 06:08 |
Beldar | SaberX01, I have 4 OS including W8.1 on my msdos toshiba laptop, I keeping it till it breaks, hehe. | 06:08 |
Meldon | I dunno if alsa comes stock or if I needed to config something first. | 06:08 |
pablo__ | Beldar, Im running ubuntu on a bootable USB and I can see the grub folder in the /boot/ but when I try to list on the grub rescue prompt I cant see it! | 06:08 |
lotuspsychje | Beldar: can you take a look at this url, see if its clean? http://elabualg.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/dual-boot-ubuntu-and-windows-8-uefi/ | 06:08 |

Gilligan94 | mnemon: ok now I'm getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/6689142/ which doesnt appear to be connecting me to the router, it happens instantly weather I press the button or not | 06:09 |
SaberX01 | lotuspsychje, that's just it, its nto really safe, as you can seriously mess things up with UEFI enabled, and it appears that Win8 will not boot Grub Legacy on UEFI enabled hardware. | 06:09 |
lotuspsychje | SaberX01: yes true, but explain that to users who's wife only wants w8 lol! | 06:09 |
Beldar | pablo__, If all you had was an install that is now broken, I would just do a reinstall, if you do so when you update use the update gui and make sure it is not a partial is all. This may be fixable, but if you want to move on and have a working OS a reinstall is probably best. I would clean out the sda2 the windows boot partitrion as well. | 06:10 |
SaberX01 | lotuspsychje, that's why I say, run the *Nix instance in a VM on any UEFI / Win8 enabled machine, job done. | 06:10 |
lotuspsychje | SaberX01: sounds like a smarter choice indeed | 06:10 |
* lotuspsychje surely wont run w8 on anything :p | 06:11 | |

Gilligan94 | So does anyone know how to connect to a router set up for push button WPS in ubuntu? I'm not having any success with wpa_cli wps_pbc | 06:18 |
Beldar | pablo__, The only thing that seemed strange was seeing the usb as sdb and the two HD's as sda and sdc, generally it would show the usb as sdc. | 06:18 |
ogden | disable wps its insecure :) | 06:19 |
cfhowlett | ogden, perhaps in the #ubuntu-server channel ... | 06:19 |
Gilligan94 | ogden, I'm aware but this isnt my router | 06:19 |
cfhowlett | Gilligan94, sorry, #ubuntu-server might know ... | 06:19 |
Gilligan94 | cfhowlett, this isn't really server related | 06:20 |
ogden | Gilligan try these steps http://askubuntu.com/questions/120367/how-to-connect-to-wi-fi-ap-through-wps | 06:20 |
pablo__ | Beldar, one of them was an external hard drive. wonder if that explains anything | 06:20 |
Beldar | pablo__, which the sdc? | 06:20 |
ogden | mainly i just need to know where the heck to put the fstab for the clients which doesnt seem to be explained anywher in ltsp man pages | 06:20 |
pablo__ | Beldar, Let me check the sizes and confirm because its a 250GB | 06:21 |
Gilligan94 | ogden, that answer appears to be for WPS pin not WPS push button | 06:22 |
ogden | ah sorry let me see then | 06:22 |
pablo__ | Beldar, yes the sdc is the external hard drive | 06:23 |
ogden | Gilligan94: have you tried wps-client? | 06:23 |
Beldar | pablo__, yeah sdc then, it shows in the script windows remnants, so when grub run on the internal it could be getting confused with the windows remnants on the external, I would clean out any windows files there not needed, and the sda2 windows boot partition. This is a guess but grub is just a app in the end. | 06:23 |
bp0 | Hello. after some updates tonight, my computer is not usable. :( it looks like there was an linux kernel update and it has made graphics fail to work. The kernel will not load nvidia or nouveau for my nvidia card. | 06:23 |
Beldar | pablo__, sdc has grub in its mbr as well. | 06:24 |
pablo__ | Beldar, Okay. Let me clean out all the windows remnants and re run boot-repair | 06:24 |
Beldar | pablo__, I would unplug that external in general, I have a bunch myself, I never have them plugged in when messing with grub, it will read them...etc. | 06:26 |
Gilligan94 | ogden, I dont believe I've come across wps-client | 06:26 |
pablo__ | Beldar, Ive unplugged them and removed everything on the /dev/sda2. Im running boot-repair again | 06:28 |

yash069 | jetson53: are u sure, can u still run it ? | 06:34 |

jetson53 | I can still configure it....... | 06:35 |

bp0 | dont remember exactly, but try to remove all wine, something like apt-get remove wine-* | 06:38 |
bp0 | the actual package wine just points to some other package | 06:38 |
bp0 | whatever the current version on offer is, I think | 06:38 |

Gilligan94 | ogden, I cant see anything about a wps-client anywhere. other than a mock up | 06:42 |
pablo__ | Beldar, This is the new message http://paste.ubuntu.com/6689243/ | 06:44 |
ogden | Those are just the two that came to mind, I can't think of anything else | 06:44 |
Beldar | pablo__, Only thing strange is a gpt partition table on the usb, does it boot now, I see an error on the repair. | 06:48 |
Beldar | not sure if the efi stuff on the live makes it read a gpt table | 06:48 |
Beldar | pablo__,I have to go take care of a little work be back in 1/2 hour. | 06:49 |
pablo__ | Beldar, I wanted you to first look at the file before I restart since im working on the same system... Okay I'll be here when you return | 06:49 |
rww | umm. | 06:52 |
rww | where is my Skype systray icon? | 06:52 |

ikill12 | hello everyone | 06:53 |
Gilligan94 | skype aint what it used to be :/ I wish it was still peer to peer | 06:54 |
=== paddy_ is now known as Guest14973 | ||
rww | skype works fine, and is running, I just can't find where unity puts systray icons | 06:54 |
alesan | hi | 06:54 |
rww | and if i try to run it again it errors because it's already running | 06:54 |
alesan | do not worry - I am a Linux user but on this particular computer, I have dual boot with WINDOWS7; how in the hell can I set WINDOWS7 as default? | 06:55 |
alesan | I have tried everything, but it doe not work | 06:55 |
Gilligan94 | in previous versions of skype it showed up in the messages menu | 06:55 |
alesan | every tutorial or stackexchange question on it, the files are different on 13.10 | 06:55 |
rww | I googled this problem, and the only bug report I can find has something about mark shuttleworth deciding systray icons are obsolete?! | 06:56 |
Gilligan94 | rww thats not true systray icons still show up | 06:56 |
Gilligan94 | it's just skype | 06:57 |
* rww loads KeepassX and enables its systray icon to test | 06:57 | |
rww | ... the "Show system tray icon" option is greyed out | 06:57 |
Gilligan94 | welp good luck :P | 06:58 |
TheMadcapper | Btw, while Ubuntu kept reporting "compatible bus not detected, module not inserted.", *kbuntu* installed fine. | 06:58 |

Success | Hello everyone. I have grub2 installed, it successfully loads linux, my drive is formatted as gpt, i have a bios, one disk, but windows gives me some can not boot error because it doesn't know how to use gpt, and needs an mbr. i get that much. but all of the fixes on the internet are for efi. how can I fix windows to work with my gpt w/o efi | 06:58 |
Success | or can I fake an efi or something? | 06:58 |
thom_r | Gilligan94, skype is not a very going voip service in my opinion. | 06:58 |
Gilligan94 | thom_r, yea having my calls recorded doesnt really tickle my fancy | 06:59 |
rww | why do I not have an option to run KeepassX in the systray on Unity? | 06:59 |
Success | thom_r, what is a good alternative? | 06:59 |
thom_r | Gilligan94, leave it to Microsoft to screw up a good product. | 06:59 |
Gilligan94 | thom_r pretty much :P | 07:00 |
thom_r | Success, I use Viber. Available for most smart phones, Linux, and Android tablets. | 07:00 |
anton02 | how do you mount a zfs partition? | 07:00 |
elky | rww: does right click on the icon give a lock option? | 07:00 |
rww | Like, I am seriously trying to get used to Unity, but when I have to install a separate application to change fonts, and my systray stuff which works fine in KDE does not work on it, it is hard. | 07:00 |
Gilligan94 | Success, I've been using google hang outs off and on | 07:00 |
rww | elky: on the icon on the left bar? | 07:00 |
elky | yes | 07:00 |
thom_r | I like google hangouts as well. | 07:00 |
rww | elky: lock to launcher, did you mean that? | 07:01 |
elky | yes | 07:01 |
elky | thats as close as you can get afaik | 07:01 |
rww | elky: this does not have the same behavior as the keepassx systray icon. specifically, i cannot minimize to it and have it not show up in alt-tab | 07:01 |
rww | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/keepassx/+bug/842224 | 07:02 |
rww | are you kidding me | 07:02 |
ubottu | Ubuntu bug 842224 in sni-qt (Ubuntu) "Unable to restore KeePassX window, once it's minimized to tray" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 07:02 |
rww | Ubuntu's solution to Unity not working properly with KeepassX's systray icon is to disable KeepassX's systray icon on Unity. | 07:02 |
SoulRaven | is posibile to redirect the traffic from one port on 2 ports in the same time | 07:03 |
rww | meanwhile, someone attached a patch a year and a half ago that apparently fixes the issue, and this has not been merged | 07:03 |
rww | words fail me | 07:03 |
pablo__ | Beldar, When I googled my laptop model and ubuntu 12.04 I found there was someone with a similar issue and has an interesting solution :-) Im gonna trying it out now... | 07:05 |
n8815 | hi | 07:06 |
rww | oh, there we go | 07:06 |
rww | the correct solution to "my skype icon doesn't show up in Unity" is 1) not complaining about how Skype records your calls and then praising Google, 2) sudo apt-get install sni-qt:i386 | 07:06 |
rww | hope that helps any future people, using google search or something | 07:07 |

rww | KDE and Xfce have a settings thing where you can set keyboard options like replacing the Caps Lock key with a Compose key. How do I do this on Unity? | 07:25 |
rww | erm, maybe not Xfce. GNOME? not sure. KDE definitely does though. | 07:25 |

rww | the output of 'xset' does not seem to imply this | 07:28 |
kay______ | no, i guess not. | 07:28 |
rww | i expect there's some way to do it, I was hoping for either 1) a shiny GUI panel as seen elsewhere, or 2) someone who knows what command I'd use, and also how to make Unity run a script on startup | 07:29 |
kay______ | setxkbmap maybe | 07:30 |
kay______ | what is "compose"? | 07:32 |
rww | kay______: it lets you compose sequences of characters into one. e.g. compose + ' + e = e with an accent over it | 07:33 |

But I am getting this error. http://pastebin.com/sg3EYG7P | 08:01 |

ROPA | has anyone actually been able to make skype work?? It used to run well in my daughters laptop and in my desktop. But, it stopped working in both systems and nothing I try makes it work. It seems recent changes were made that stopped it from working. Any ideas what I need to do? | 08:06 |

ROPA | kostkon not sure what changes, but it stopped working at the same time in both computers. | 08:08 |
Beldar | b3h3m0th, You have a uefi setup, try the bootrepair app. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair be sure to save ythe generated bootinfo summary. | 08:08 |
kostkon | ROPA, try running it from the terminal | 08:08 |
kostkon | ROPA, do you see any error messages | 08:08 |
ROPA | kostkon both systems appear to work, until a call is attempted....then it closes with no error message....on both of my systems. | 08:09 |
Beldar | b3h3m0th, Were you planning to resize the ubuntu partition? | 08:09 |
kostkon | ROPA, hmm | 08:09 |
b3h3m0th | Nope.. I was resizing the sda6 partition in that image ( NTFS ) | 08:09 |
ROPA | kostkon I never tried running it in terminal. Will try it in a few minutes. | 08:10 |
Beldar | b3h3m0th, Right but you have an unallocated space now, what were your plans with it? | 08:10 |
jesus_smasher | ok so i update ubuntu kernel to 3.11 and now on boot i get a blank screen | 08:12 |
jesus_smasher | is really frustrating | 08:12 |
jesus_smasher | please help | 08:12 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, update or install? | 08:13 |
jesus_smasher | i updated | 08:13 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, from the update manager right? | 08:13 |
jesus_smasher | it runs thur all the boot text then the screen just goes blank but backlight is still on | 08:13 |
jesus_smasher | ya | 08:14 |
b3h3m0th | Beldar: I have no Idea where that came from !!! sda8 is the linux partion I have and while installing linux there, I had grub installed in my MBR (sda) | 08:14 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, You using a graphic driver from the hardware website? | 08:14 |
jesus_smasher | i dont think so | 08:15 |
b3h3m0th | Beldar: I am not able to add the repository for bootfixer | 08:15 |
jesus_smasher | i dont even really have a gpu | 08:15 |
Beldar | b3h3m0th, when you resize a partition you leave an unallocated space if you shrunk sda6 this makes sense. | 08:15 |
jesus_smasher | i have an amd cpu with intagraded ati gpu | 08:15 |
jesus_smasher | like hd4000 or something | 08:16 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, Did you install a graphic driver, and do you know the graphic crad? | 08:16 |
b3h3m0th | so now how can I proceed with the boot fix ? | 08:16 |
Beldar | !nomodeset | jesus_smasher try this | 08:16 |
ubottu | jesus_smasher try this: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 08:16 |
b3h3m0th | I am not able to ad repo | 08:16 |
b3h3m0th | Beldar: http://pastebin.com/wJJ1Asr4 | 08:16 |
jesus_smasher | ive tried nomodeset, no help | 08:17 |
Beldar | b3h3m0th, you do not do this from a chroot. | 08:17 |
jesus_smasher | and i tried acpi_osi=off and nothing | 08:17 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, Does an earlier kernel work? | 08:17 |
b3h3m0th | yeah... that was it :) | 08:18 |
jesus_smasher | no, it work in recovery but there is not ui just text terminal. | 08:18 |
Beldar | b3h3m0th, JUst exit the chroot and follow the link | 08:19 |
jesus_smasher | it was working fine before the update tho | 08:19 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, You tried the previous working kernel? | 08:19 |
jesus_smasher | yes and does not work now | 08:19 |
jesus_smasher | i get the same issue... | 08:19 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, Hmm, I'm not sure. | 08:19 |
jesus_smasher | oh maybe it changed a driver for my gpu? | 08:20 |
jesus_smasher | cuz there were alot of updated | 08:20 |
jesus_smasher | updates* | 08:20 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, You did this from the update gui or the terminal? | 08:21 |
jesus_smasher | grrrr i hate this poo | 08:21 |
jesus_smasher | update gui | 08:21 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, Did you see a partial upgrade warning? | 08:21 |
jesus_smasher | no there wasnt | 08:21 |
Beldar | jesus_smasher, Hmm strange, again not sure. | 08:22 |
jesus_smasher | do you know if there is a channel for kernels | 08:24 |
jesus_smasher | kernals | 08:24 |
arlen | kernels | 08:24 |
jesus_smasher | hehe knew it was one or the other | 08:25 |
aeon-ltd | jesus_smasher: #linux is pretty general | 08:25 |
jesus_smasher | cool ill give it a shot | 08:25 |
aeon-ltd | though there probably is a specialist chan for compiling custom kernels | 08:25 |

joao | hi | 10:02 |
panopticon36 | hello joao | 10:03 |
Angel_Of_Sorrow | man this is a drag | 10:03 |
joao | hi, Panopticon | 10:03 |
joao | I am new here. | 10:03 |
panopticon36 | me too | 10:03 |
joao | good | 10:03 |
panopticon36 | i'm looking for some advice dealing with plymouth and nvidia drivers | 10:04 |
panopticon36 | apparently the combination is a pain | 10:04 |
joao | I am not sure about drivers. sorry. | 10:04 |
SaberX01 | Nicnm, Ok, thanks for the update, not sure why the reboot fixed it, but a win is a win =D | 10:05 |

panopticon36 | i've seen some similar fixes that start off like that one | 10:06 |
panopticon36 | but this is a little different | 10:06 |
panopticon36 | i'll give it a try | 10:06 |

tizbac | panopticon36, you can't get graphical console and nvidia drivers at hte same time | 10:08 |
tizbac | graphical console requires kernel mode setting which is not and it probably won't be supported by the proprietary driver | 10:09 |
tizbac | some distros like fedora and opensuse try to enable graphical console anyway , but they cause instability and corruption | 10:09 |
panopticon36 | interesting | 10:10 |
bekks | tizbac: For me, that works perfectly, using Nvidia. | 10:10 |
SaberX01 | why would anyone want that anyway .. just another llayer for potentual failure. | 10:10 |
SaberX01 | *layer | 10:10 |
panopticon36 | then is there a way to delay the nvidia driver from loading? | 10:10 |
panopticon36 | that way when plymouth goes to do its thing, its still using some default vesa driver? | 10:10 |
tizbac | panopticon36, the problem is not when it is loaded , but if you have set some graphical mode before loading it | 10:10 |
panopticon36 | i havent that i know of | 10:11 |
panopticon36 | say i'm going to tinker a bit, brgb | 10:11 |
tizbac | if you have used the vesa driver you have set another mode | 10:11 |
tizbac | see if nouveau works fine for your needs , it's the best way | 10:12 |
joker1 | anyone have best driver for amd hd4670m? | 10:12 |

raub | Jessica1: have you tried this keyb+adapter in another computer? | 10:28 |
Jessica1 | yes it worked on an old computer | 10:29 |
Guest898 | mnemon, how to check it drops the incoming packets | 10:29 |
Jessica1 | if I pres num lock the led works | 10:29 |
mnemon | Guest898: that will block packets FROM the site, not the ones you send there. | 10:29 |

Jessica1 | the usb keyboard is working properly, the other one ps2 is brand DELL | 10:33 |

raub | dev_: *and* "cat /etc/fstab" | 10:35 |
raub | Jessica1: Ok, so the usb keyboard is 040b:2000 | 10:36 |
raub | Jessica1: if that is the case, the computer is not seeing the other keyb | 10:37 |

Jessica1 | ok thanks | 10:38 |
dev_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6690045/ | 10:39 |
ansel | hey what is meaning of sudo | 10:39 |
ansel | how does it define | 10:39 |
raub | dev_: so Projects is not a local partition | 10:39 |
ansel | why | 10:39 |
Beldar | !sudo | ansel | 10:39 |
ubottu | ansel: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 10:39 |
ansel | which one of you | 10:39 |
dev_ | i have virtualbox , projects is shared folder | 10:39 |
dev_ | raub | 10:39 |
ansel | wait | 10:40 |
raub | dev_: that changes a lot of things then! You could shut down the vm, resize the disk, and restart it | 10:40 |
dev_ | i did | 10:40 |
raub | dev_: then you can do some resizing | 10:40 |
dev_ | i increased it from it from 15 to 30 | 10:41 |
raub | dev_: and it did not recognize? Odd | 10:41 |
dev_ | dev--server--root , still same size | 10:41 |
raub | dev_: it should have realized it had changed (fdisk) | 10:41 |
panopticon36 | i think i found the source of my issues with plymouth | 10:41 |
dev_ | mysql full , so i cant connect to it | 10:41 |
raub | dev_: you can always boot from a cd | 10:42 |
dev_ | cd is not with me :( | 10:42 |
panopticon36 | My laptop uses "optimus" technology, meaning it is meant to switch between two GPUs, the integrated intel 3000HD and nVidia gtx525m | 10:42 |
raub | dev_: it is virtualbox, just feed it the iso | 10:43 |
bekks | panopticon36: Then either use bumblebee or nvidia-prime, and not nvidia. | 10:43 |
panopticon36 | because of this, my installation of ubuntu does not even recognize that i have an nVidia gpu | 10:43 |
dev_ | then i resize partions ? | 10:43 |
dev_ | raub ? | 10:43 |
panopticon36 | what is bumblebee? something that takes advantage of the optimus technology? | 10:43 |
raub | possibly; it depends on what fdisk then tell you | 10:44 |
Beldar | !bumblebee | 10:44 |

panopticon36 | i'll give that a try right now | 10:45 |
panopticon36 | should i even bother manually downloading and installing the nvidia driver from the nvidia site? | 10:45 |

bekks | panopticon36: No, downliading it manually will break. | 10:46 |

MarkDavies | is it just my impression or am I right thinking that Ubuntu doesn't offer a user with the option of choosing of what software is to be installed? | 11:02 |
jgcampbell300 | MarkDavies, theres several ways to choose software ... apt-get or package manager gui | 11:03 |
MarkDavies | jgcampbell300: I mean when installing | 11:04 |
panopticon36 | what are our thoughts on "nixie pixel" | 11:04 |
jgcampbell300 | MarkDavies, hmm i thought there was a selection place ... list that starts with open ssh or something like that | 11:05 |
jgcampbell300 | MarkDavies, if i rember right the very last option there will send you into a really large list of packages | 11:05 |
MarkDavies | jgcampbell300: I can't remember that. Anyway, I need a Linux software which would offer just a console mode and have very basic software. | 11:06 |
ar00 | try out archlinux | 11:06 |
MarkDavies | thanks | 11:06 |
MarkDavies | does it have gcc compiler preinstalled? | 11:06 |

SaberX01 | vik, sri I have no idea AMD GPU's. I've never owned one. | 11:24 |
panopticon36 | The AMD Radeon HD 7670m chipset uses "AMD Dynamic Switchable Graphics" (which is like nVidia's Optimus Technology) | 11:25 |
Tasab | cfhowlett: select the first installation or multi server installation | 11:25 |
panopticon36 | vik's computer has basically two gpu's in it, and software has to determine which threads get sent to which gpu for rendering | 11:26 |
cfhowlett | Tasab, you asked about LTS, right? DESKTOP LTS will run as a live session, not the server version | 11:26 |
vik | i was using 13.04 with AMD drivers there were no problem with heating , but unity got crashed . so i installed 12.04 only reason bcoz it is LTS | 11:26 |
bekks | panopticon36: Thats one of two possibilities. The other one is to actually switch and dedicate the GPU to be used. | 11:26 |
ansel | hey i need help | 11:27 |
Tasab | cfhowlett: actually am asking about the server session , | 11:27 |
panopticon36 | in the case of nvidia/intel, bumblebee is the answer; for amd i dont know what the open source solution is. You'll have to do a little bit of hunting | 11:27 |

tester56 | SaberX01: thanks for the answer, but I can't see my question answered there (look at the last question in the link) | 12:08 |
SaberX01 | tester56, I can, but ok. | 12:08 |
Guest69188 | would like to upgrade kernel to 3.12 on saucy, can I just use the kernel version v3.12-saucy safely? | 12:08 |
MonkeyDust | tester56 have you asked in the channel #ubuntuone ? | 12:09 |
tester56 | MonkeyDust: yeah, but no reaction so far | 12:09 |
SaberX01 | Guest69188, 3.12+ Kernel is for 14.04 .. while it is possible, is it safe to do, only if yo have a firm grasp of manually managing kernel / driver updates. | 12:10 |
Guest69188 | SaberX01: so future sudo apt-get update won't keep me up to date? I'm install saucy on a macbook, and it seems 3.12 could fix a number of issues | 12:10 |
tester56 | SaberX01: and what would be the answer in your opinion? | 12:10 |
tester56 | SaberX01: "If I mount a container and do make changes to the contents, when the container is finally dismounted in TC, Ubuntu One immediately uploads the changed container file." -> it is not clear if only changes are synced or the whole container ... | 12:11 |
kngharv | help! my newly installed saucy seems to stuck when the x-server is about to go up... AFTER I installed all my packages from my old system and trying to switch to gnome-shell. at this point, i don't know if it's problem of x-server, gdm, or something else, would someone give me a hint? | 12:11 |
SaberX01 | Guest69188, If it were me, I'd install the distro that supported the 3.12 kernel instead of working outside the package management system. As for Macbook, I know nothing about them, other than my wife has one :-) | 12:12 |
SaberX01 | tester56, My suggestion, ask them the clarify it. | 12:13 |
panopticon36 | I used to install linux on my macbook 2,1 a lot. But it kept eating harddrives, so i retired it | 12:13 |
SaberX01 | and that's a problem for Ubuntu how? | 12:13 |
panopticon36 | I never had trouble with it as far as getting distros to work. It seemed to be easier to get working properly than some windows built computers. | 12:13 |
Guest69188 | panopticon36: I hope not, I got it only because it had a 1TB ssd! | 12:13 |
panopticon36 | the 2,1 model is old now | 12:13 |
panopticon36 | came out in 07 | 12:14 |
panopticon36 | so whatever was causing it to act like that is surely remedies | 12:14 |
Guest69188 | panopticon36: everything is working but sound -- and yes, I read about the ssd issues, but it seems they've been mostly resolved. I hope ;) | 12:14 |
panopticon36 | back when i got mine no one was even dreaming about ssd lol | 12:14 |
Guest69188 | also, the recent upgrade to 3.11.15 kernel caused wifi problems... so I was thinking to go to 3.12 maybe I just sit back until tasty is out ;) | 12:15 |

SaberX01 | lemmoner, Allison43 If he's in Grub_Legacy mode, he does not the small EFI partition .. can just do a normal Win7-Ubuntu Install. | 12:48 |
war9407 | ubuntu is broken when you use xrdp or vnc to an ubuntu box | 12:48 |
war9407 | (13.10) | 12:48 |
war9407 | so I am working around it and I got it 90% there | 12:48 |

war9407 | the left side panel, what process is that? | 12:49 |
MonkeyDust | war9407 start from the beginning, what brings you here | 12:49 |
war9407 | The unity desktop does not function over vnc/xrdp. | 12:49 |
war9407 | This is documented on many forum posts. | 12:49 |
Allison43 | SaberX01, not grub legacy , legacy node in the uefi | 12:49 |

lemmoner | if not legacy mode will be fine | 12:50 |
nerdtron | lemmoner: create the partition for ubuntu using window 7 so you don't have to create it on the ubuntu installer screen | 12:50 |
Allison43 | lemmoner, and then after windows , linux if that's what you want to do | 12:51 |

SolarisBoy | war9407: sorry wrong target | 12:52 |
lemmoner | yep, I just want windows 7 for compatibility reasons | 12:52 |
war9407 | nerdtron: tried that, it is a well known issue with Ubuntu and xrdp/vnc | 12:52 |
war9407 | nerdtron: but I am hoping to find a workaround | 12:53 |
lemmoner | just gparted on it? or you mean using a linux distro and use gparted included in there? | 12:53 |
Allison43 | on a live cd /usb , lemmoner | 12:53 |

das_ | hello | 14:27 |
GODDOG | das_: hello | 14:28 |
das_ | after a long time i am using ubuntu | 14:28 |
Pelo | morning folks, I need an app, preferably gui , to check a hdd for bad sectors and such | 14:28 |
das_ | i would like to know cross compilers for qt to beagle board | 14:29 |
Pelo | das_, might have better luck finding a beagle board channel | 14:29 |
das_ | ya i just installed ubuntu now | 14:30 |
das_ | and started our native channel | 14:30 |
Pelo | das_, ubuntu on a beagle board ? | 14:30 |
das_ | Pelo, no i want to ssh to BBB | 14:31 |
das_ | from windows its hard | 14:31 |
Pelo | ha , out of my league | 14:31 |
das_ | so i started with our great OS | 14:31 |
sgo11 | hi, I am trying to run chrome browser only without any desktop environment. it's working fine by creating .desktop under /usr/share/xsessions. But I just have one problem. I can not maximize anymore. by clicking maximize, it does nothing. I can resize the window with mouse. how can I re-enable the "maximize" feature somehow? thanks. | 14:32 |
das_ | pelo, i like to do cross compiling of QT apps to BBB | 14:32 |
das_ | so i have to ssh to BBB | 14:33 |
Pelo | das_, I get it, but it's out of my leaque, I'm not that l33t, I'm just a power user. | 14:33 |
das_ | pelo, will come up with other thgs | 14:34 |
Pelo | das_, once you've ssh into the BBB, wouldn'T you be compiling inside the BBB ? so If you manage to install qt on it , or anythign else, won'T you just be compiling in BBB and not cross compiling ? | 14:34 |
das_ | like i have to install tool chain in ubuntu | 14:34 |
Pelo | maybe in #linux | 14:35 |
Pelo | das_, sounds complicated enough to grab their attenton | 14:35 |
das_ | pelo, it will be time consuming task | 14:35 |
Pelo | das_, also try asking in #linux | 14:36 |
das_ | sure pelo | 14:36 |
das_ | thanks for your time | 14:36 |
andyfied | Pelo: there's a disk thing build into ubuntu | 14:36 |
Pelo | andyfied, so I do a search for "thing" ? | 14:36 |
andyfied | Pelo: Disk Utility | 14:36 |
das_ | i be back after a while | 14:37 |
andyfied | sorry, i forgot what is was :D | 14:37 |
Pelo | andyfied, it will check the filesystem but not sure it can do anything more then scandisk in windows | 14:37 |
Pelo | andyfied, thanks I'll give it a try | 14:38 |
andyfied | Pelo: well you can use badblocks to check for bad sectors, but i don't know about a GUI version | 14:39 |
Pelo | andyfied, i'll give that a try, I still need for the resinatll to be complete. | 14:39 |

linguini | Is it possible to shutdown an Ubuntu Unity instance using only the keyboard? | 15:39 |
Outlaw_Star | Linguini: i'm pretty sure the only way to get around unity is to log into a session with a different desktop manager | 15:40 |
Outlaw_Star | linguini: gnome-shell and xfce are some examples | 15:40 |
trijntje | linguini: what do you whant to do? You can just kill the unity program using 'killall unity' in a terminal | 15:42 |
linguini | trijntje: I want to restart a VirtualBox instance with an Ubuntu 13.10 guest, without using my mouse. | 15:42 |
bbteufel | wouldn't that just make his session useless ? | 15:43 |
Outlaw_Star | Has anyone had the chance to play with SteamOS yet? | 15:43 |
trijntje | linguini: in a terminal: unity --replace | 15:43 |
trijntje | well yeah, but that is what killing unity will do you your session ;) | 15:43 |
Left_Turn | anyone currently on ubuntu 13+? | 15:44 |
linguini | To be clear, I want to shutdown (or often, reboot), the virtual machine | 15:44 |
Outlaw_Star | left_turn: aye | 15:44 |
trijntje | linguini: why not just use virtualbox to do that? Just close the window | 15:44 |
Left_Turn | Outlaw_Star, can you do 'apt-cache search python3.3' .. for me and tell me if it returns python3.3 please | 15:45 |
Outlaw_Star | left_turn: one moment | 15:45 |
Left_Turn | ok thanks Outlaw_Star | 15:45 |
linguini | trijntje: I'd never tried that. I wonder -- will that shutdown the vm politely? | 15:45 |
trijntje | linguini: you get a window that asks you how you want to shutdown | 15:46 |
Outlaw_Star | left_turn: Positive, looks like 13.10 does have python 3.3 | 15:46 |
trijntje | you can just poweroff (force), save the machine state or sent the 'shutdown' signal, which is like pressing the power button I think | 15:46 |
Left_Turn | oh ok thanks Outlaw_Star .. i appreciate it:) | 15:46 |
Outlaw_Star | left_turn: my pleasure | 15:47 |

llutz | linguini: VBoxManage controlvm <VMname_here> acpipowerbutton (or poweroff), no mouse, done | 15:49 |
Outlaw_Star | yeah well... it'd make it stop lol | 15:49 |
Outlaw_Star | llutz's method would probably work best | 15:49 |
Outlaw_Star | much more graceful | 15:50 |
bbteufel | outlaw_star : if he has more than one vms then it will shut down all of them | 15:50 |
llutz | kill -9 without emergency-case = stupidity never dies | 15:50 |
Outlaw_Star | bbteufel: well then he should have specified he had more than one running lol | 15:50 |
Outlaw_Star | whatever, kill -9 is effective | 15:51 |
linguini | Thanks all. I guess the only thing I'm not sure about is whether "poweroff" is "harsh". I'd like the VM to maintain a good state long term. | 15:51 |
linguini | Perhaps acpipowerbutton is kinder than "poweroff" | 15:52 |
iceroot | Outlaw_Star: kill -9 is always bad | 15:52 |
MarkDavies | telnet www.google.pl 80. Then GET / HTTP/1.1. Why is nothing happening? | 15:52 |
Outlaw_Star | whats so bad about kill -9 | 15:52 |
linguini | But is acpipowerbutton as kind as "gnome-session-quit --power-off --force" ? | 15:52 |
trijntje | Outlaw_Star: you should be carefull when giving people advice, not suggest things that could damage their system/data | 15:52 |
iceroot | Outlaw_Star: it will kill it directla without giving the program the chance to close wsockets, connections, remove lock files and so on | 15:53 |
linguini | (I won't use kill -9) | 15:53 |
iceroot | Outlaw_Star: when you have to use kill -9 because kill (-15) is not workng, the program you are using is buggy | 15:53 |
llutz | Outlaw_Star: it kills processes without giving them a chance to shutdown cleanly, store open data, close files etc | 15:53 |
iceroot | Outlaw_Star: so please dont suggest using kill -9. its always bad | 15:53 |
cholsu | I would like to try ubuntu phone | 15:54 |

Outlaw_Star | i use it whenever i dont like how something is acting, and i'll probably keep doing it | 15:54 |
iceroot | Outlaw_Star: do what you want but dont suggest it here | 15:55 |
Outlaw_Star | i know what it does, but i fail to see why you guys are crapping your pants over the largly effective results | 15:55 |
hitsujiTMO | MarkDavies: press enter twice | 15:55 |
iceroot | Outlaw_Star: its bad and stupid as we told you already so stop suggesting it here | 15:55 |
MarkDavies | heh, now it works, hitsujiTMO, why? | 15:56 |

MonkeyDust | guuyzor that's a yes/no question, better ask your real question | 16:22 |
DK-MODE | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 16:22 |
trijntje | nathan--: you usually get the option to upgrade after installing the latest updates. If you want to upgrade now you can do alt+f2, and then type 'update-manager -d' | 16:22 |
MonkeyDust | leave out the -d, it means development | 16:23 |

Heymans34 | hello I have ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS installed. When I turn up the pc, after the bios etc the OS doesn' launch and I get a "entry not supportedé on the screen while the pc keeps on turning. I can get in the bios and start with a USB boot but only that. | 16:27 |
nathan-- | trijntje: Well, wouldn't that install the development version? I'm guessing that's different than the sable one I'd like to install | 16:27 |
MonkeyDust | nathan-- i'm trying to remember wath the command is, for an upgrade to next release | 16:27 |
trijntje | nathan--: just try and see, if it says it wants to upgrade to development (14.04) just click cancel | 16:27 |
MonkeyDust | nathan-- here it is: sudo do-release-upgrade | 16:27 |
nathan-- | trijntje: Hmm.. so that DOES in fact present an option to upgrade to 13.10! However, would that set any other packages to development? | 16:28 |

nathan-- | trijntje: Is there a downside to upgrading via do-release-upgrade in terminal? | 16:39 |
jhutchins | nashant: Make sure smartmontools is installed and enabled and start checking the logs. You may be loosing a hard disk. | 16:40 |
nashant | jhutchins: smartmontools is installed and enabled. I've run a short test, no issues. Part way through running a long test. But the logs don't say anything | 16:41 |
jhutchins | nathan--: No, and several advantages. The console tools are much lighter on the system. | 16:41 |
apb1963 | so I'm thinking about getting an SSD. Is there anything important I need to know? Like do I need to worry about drivers or anything else? | 16:41 |
nashant | It does feel like the disk is getting pretty hot though | 16:41 |
jhutchins | nashant: Make sure monitoring is enabled, and check around the time you see a lock-up. | 16:42 |
jhutchins | nashant: The tests are less important than long term trends. | 16:42 |
jhutchins | apb1963: No problems with drivers, and "wear" is getting to be less of an issue. Have a plan for regular backups and read some of the on-line articles about optimizing the system for SSD. | 16:43 |
nathan-- | jhutchins: So for a desktop environment, upgrading via launching a terminal, and doing "sudo do-release-upgrade" should be okay? | 16:43 |
MonkeyDust | nathan-- the terminal tends to be faster and cleaner than any GUI | 16:43 |
nashant | jhutchins: There's nothing in the smart error log at all. Is there another log I should be checking? | 16:43 |
jhutchins | nashant: Yes, that's the preferred method. | 16:43 |
apb1963 | jhutchins: any links you can suggest in particular? | 16:43 |
nathan-- | MonkeyDust: Any parameters I need to specify? 'help' mentions a 'p to update to $distro-proposed, and --mode to specify desktop or server | 16:45 |
MonkeyDust | nathan-- no, just sudo do-release-upgrade | 16:45 |

nathan-- | So one weird observation.. if I run "do-release-upgrade -c" the system says "No new release found". If I do "sudo do-release-upgrade -c" it says 13.10 is available. | 16:50 |
nathan-- | MonkeyDust: Could that indicate anything as to why my Software Updater wasn't seeing the new release? | 16:51 |
MonkeyDust | nathan-- asking too many questions before you start, slows down the procedure | 16:51 |
sgo11 | ok. I think I found them. they are under /usr/share/lxde/images/ | 16:51 |
nathan-- | MonkeyDust: lol.. true.. for some reason I'm just more comfortable with the warm/fuzzy UI option (never updated via terminal) | 16:52 |
jhutchins | nashant: There are a bunch of good articles available about smartmontools on ubuntu. I would suggest that you at least scan a few. | 16:52 |
streulma | hello, may I ask a question? | 16:53 |
streulma | I figured something out: Installed Ubuntu 13.04 in BIOS mode on Macbook Pro 5-2. Can't properly do a shutdown, and can only boot normal with nomodeset. | 16:54 |
jhutchins | nashant: Modern hard drive isolate the system from physical and logical errors on the drive. They attempt to correct or compensate for those errors, and that can make an I/O operation hang. When the delay becomes noticible by a human, it's an indication that the errors are reaching the end of the controll components to handle it. | 16:54 |
jhutchins | nashant: The tests won't show this, although they may show significant error counts or logs. | 16:55 |
MonkeyDust | nathan-- the terminal has more advantages, it just doenst *look* very nice | 16:55 |
DrkKnight_06 | has anyone else encountered the battery not present issue | 16:55 |
jhutchins | DrkKnight_06: Yes, I have that issue with my TV remote all the time. | 16:56 |
jhutchins | streulma: Please go ahead and ask your question. | 16:57 |
sere | hello all | 16:57 |
streulma | jhutchins: I asked... I figured something out: Installed Ubuntu 13.04 in BIOS mode on Macbook Pro 5-2. Can't properly do a shutdown, and can only boot normal with nomodeset. | 16:58 |
jhutchins | streulma: That's not a question. | 16:59 |

acovrig | I am trying to capture video from a v4l compatible USB capture (works on my desktop) but on my laptop I get a green video with a smudge of real video at the top, any ideas? | 17:02 |
techinstein | hi | 17:04 |
=== sysadmin is now known as Guest67896 | ||
jhutchins | acovrig: It's a pretty good bet the two systems have different GPU chipsets. Is the resolution different? | 17:09 |
jhutchins | acovrig: When you caputre video on A, does it play back correctly on B? | 17:09 |
acovrig | jhutchins: I am pulling video in, but pushing it out | 17:09 |
ichery | i receive the following message on my Kubuntu box after loggin in safe mode and unable to access the desktop since it happened: 'Ubhid couldn't find an input endpoint' - any help wld be appreciated. | 17:09 |
jhutchins | ichery: RIght, safe mode is no GUI. Why did you boot to safe mode? | 17:10 |
acovrig | jhutchins: I don't see why it wouldn't, wouldn't that be a video encoding issue, ffmpeg worked just fine to encode on my desktop... | 17:11 |
ichery | becz i the Desktop will not load in regular mode | 17:11 |
ichery | also i get another error about Kmix Bus error. | 17:11 |
ichery | Is the system Hosed, how can i repair it? | 17:13 |
acovrig | the thing I find iterating is that both systems are running 14.04 installed close to the same time. | 17:13 |
nathan-- | If I'm running 'do-release-upgrade' in the terminal, should I have every other program closed? | 17:15 |
daftykins | it'd be nice to, yes | 17:15 |
jhutchins | acovrig: One of these things is not like the other. | 17:19 |
acovrig | yes, but what :D | 17:20 |
jhutchins | acovrig: How are we supposed to know? | 17:20 |
acovrig | I don't know, the systems are the same as far as I know, I compiled ffmpeg the exact same way and the systems are running the same version. | 17:21 |
MonkeyDust | acovrig mind: 14.04 supporrt in #ubuntu+1 until final release in april | 17:21 |
microm | what is the right forum to upload a mini how to on installing the latest Canon printer drivers? I spent about 10 hours figuring it all out, and I'd like to give back. | 17:21 |
acovrig | MonkeyDust: good to know, thanks | 17:22 |
acovrig | on second thought, apt-get update reports a large number of packages to update on my laptop, so we'll see in ~15-20min when it gets done what happens. | 17:24 |
acovrig | Is there a reliable way to determine if a CD tray is open or closed? (fdisk -l /dev/sr0 automatically brings the tray in) | 17:34 |

michael__ | hello | 17:52 |
iceroot | Hydr0p0nX: thats not a problem, because in 12.04 there are 3.2, 3.5 and 3.8 in the repos (metapackage should be installed) | 17:52 |
Hydr0p0nX | thanks | 17:52 |
iceroot | Hydr0p0nX: linux-image-generic should be 3.2, the others have lts-quantal and lts-raring in there name as well | 17:53 |

michael__ | yes, voria ppa | 17:59 |
michael__ | i used linux some years ago at the university but i forgot nearly everything.. so i have no idea now | 18:02 |
bpeak | In the shutdown command you can use the -P parameter to wait for X minutes before going to sleep, can units of time be used with this argument? Such as 1m (for 1 minute), 40s (for 40 seconds), and so on | 18:02 |
qin | michael__: what version? https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa/+packages download just fine, have you added repository? | 18:02 |

Shutterstrom | ikonia: jhutchins: The version for ubuntu is some years old. Is there a way to get the latest version? Or is there a reason why the minidlna version is so old with ubuntu? | 18:12 |

ikonia | Shutterstrom: you don't | 18:19 |
vlouvet | [[a], it is a routing problem i believe you need to have an exterior computer scan the external router IP | 18:19 |

Calinou | dixoncx, iftop | 18:20 |

helpcrypto | hi pepito, what u need? | 18:21 |
ikonia | Shutterstrom: why do you want it ? | 18:21 |
pepito | helpcrypto, thanks : do you think that use a VPN or Proxy between you and Tor is better for anonymous ? (About the difficulty to now who are you ...) | 18:22 |
raub | michael__: they are more like .cab files | 18:22 |
pepito | µknow | 18:22 |
Shutterstrom | ikonia: the newer versions have some bugfixes and new functions that I'm really interested in. | 18:22 |
helpcrypto | pepito, Tor is not #ubuntu related, so probably this is not the best place to ask. Anyhow, let me answer you with my opinion. | 18:22 |
michael__ | if the package is installed.. do i need a restart = cause the fn-keys still dont work | 18:22 |
michael__ | ? | 18:23 |
[[a] | vlouvet, ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.1 port 22: Connection refused | 18:23 |
raub | [[a]: who is doing the vpn? | 18:23 |
[[a] | vlouvet, ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.1 port 22: Connection refused (ROUTER) | 18:23 |
[[a] | raub, me | 18:23 |
vlouvet | [[a], it depends on the set up of the virtualmachine. it would work very easy if you are doing network passthrough in virtualbox but if you have a special routing process then it gets complicated | 18:23 |
helpcrypto | Tor stablish a secure communication from you to destination routing among many proxies, and the information sent is already ciphered...wo, why you would need/want a VPN? | 18:23 |
raub | michael__: depends on package. A lot of them better not | 18:23 |
pepito | helpcrypto, yeah i know but i'm really interested about your opinion ;) | 18:23 |
helpcrypto | IMHO you should care much more about DNS... | 18:24 |
Shutterstrom | ikonia: Also, who manages the packages for Ubuntu if there are newer versions? | 18:24 |
michael__ | my screen is so dark.. i cant turn it brighter with the fn keys.. dunno if i need to setup something | 18:24 |
helpcrypto | ...any of you have some knowledge about dvd rip?...i noticed my original DVD NTSC has each chapter twice...? | 18:24 |
raub | helpcrypto: I think he meant to make the connection between open and tor networks a bit harder to track. There is some decent info on the tor site about that, pepito | 18:24 |
dixoncx | Calinou, vlouvet : I am using nethogs now. Its showing network stat per process. But i just want make a log file with total network usage per session in my ppp(mobile broadband connection). Any insight ? | 18:25 |
ikonia | Shutterstrom: which bug fixes ? | 18:25 |
Phoebus | Hey guys, anyone have experience with TP-LINK wn822n - used to be auto-detected and now no more. Or point me to a good guide. Googled but got riff raff, thanks! | 18:25 |
ikonia | Shutterstrom: actually - you want to do it, go for it, it will wreck your system | 18:25 |
pepito | raub, yep i read it, and on onion site too. But that's difficult to have a great solution ... | 18:25 |
raub | [[a]: I just have sshd in each vm and then can connect to it either using straight iptables port forwarding on having an intermendiate server | 18:25 |
ikonia | Shutterstrom: it's complex process that requires an advanced level of knowledge to do it "correctly" so if you feel that's you, go for it | 18:26 |
Ampelbein | Shutterstrom: That depends. Packages which are in "main" usually see care by canonical employees, packages in "universe" are community maintained. Which in almost all cases means Ubuntu waits for DEbian to update the package. | 18:26 |
[[a] | raub, would you please invite me in a private window and work this thing together, I mean I need you show me exactly how to install OpenSSH ? Please Help me Man ! | 18:26 |

michael__ | i try to restart | 18:27 |

pepito | raub, helpcrypto : If you doing something on your open firefox tor your IP is mask but if you doing something in your terminal are you masked ? | 18:27 |
helpcrypto | pepito: depends on how u setup tor | 18:27 |
helpcrypto | on my mobile i use orbot and i tor everything | 18:28 |
helpcrypto | if u use tor as a browser/plugin, only the browser will be anonimized | 18:28 |
Shutterstrom | ikonia: I dont meen to sound ignorant but why will it wreck my system? What can go wrong? | 18:28 |
ernetas | One of my Ubuntu servers are not accepting RSA/DSA keys for SSH connection. | 18:30 |
ernetas | What could be the problem? | 18:30 |
Shutterstrom | Ampelbein: Thank you for that info! (as you probobly can tell I'm quite new to this but I'm looking to learn as much as possible) | 18:30 |
pepito | helpcrypto, so the fact is to not just use torbroswer like a plugin ? only that | 18:30 |
Ampelbein | Shutterstrom: Installing files outside of the package management system (dpkg/apt) can lead to inconsitencies, which can cause problems upon upgrades. You almost always want to create a Debian package with the newer version to have a way to safely remove it. | 18:30 |
helpcrypto | pepito: depends on what u want... | 18:30 |

bopnet | i use software wirecas in windows, but now i use linux and need software for broadcast | 18:35 |
Shutterstrom | Ampelbein: So I guess I'm "stuck" with what I've got.. :-) The packages functionality for ubuntu / debian is great, but this must be one of the downside if the package is not updated and there are newer versions out. | 18:35 |
ding | ernetas, I think that's the hostname, but what does the hostname command report ? | 18:35 |
pepito | helpcrypto, I don't find the good doc I think.. | 18:35 |
ernetas | ding, dev. | 18:35 |

SaberX01 | aberrant, after some digging, look at: stract df and grep 'sda' /proc/partitions" | 18:36 |
SaberX01 | *strace df | 18:36 |
michael__ | WeThePeople, yes | 18:36 |
WeThePeople | michael__, what distro you using | 18:37 |
streulma | why I can boot my system only with nomodeset? | 18:37 |
michael__ | WeThePeople, lubuntu 13.10, do you mean that ? | 18:38 |
WeThePeople | yes | 18:38 |
aberrant | SaberX01: thanks. I've also discovered python-psutils | 18:38 |
OerHeks | streulma, because of your videocard, logically | 18:38 |
MonkeyDust | streulma because nomodeset was the somution to your issue | 18:38 |
MonkeyDust | solution* | 18:38 |
Bashing-om | levo: try: sudo apt-get autoclean , sudo apt-get autoremove , sudo apt-get clean. If addition assis is needed, post to basbin terminal codes df -h , df -i . | 18:39 |
vlouvet | michael__, you said the ppa timed out or it do you mind posting the results of apt-get update in a private session? | 18:39 |
streulma | MonkeyDust: I have dual nvidia, if I boot system normally, it freezes | 18:39 |
PebkacJones | bonjour | 18:39 |
MonkeyDust | streulma and nomoideset solves that problem? | 18:40 |
WeThePeople | michael__, read carefully>>> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2185305 | 18:40 |
WeThePeople | i skimmed it | 18:40 |
charly_ | hello i have a question regarding ubuntu installation/bit version | 18:40 |
streulma | MonkeyDust: yes it boot with nouveau enabled, but that is a bit slow to use... | 18:40 |
vlouvet | michael__, sorry but read the #4th post of this link http://www.voria.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1226 | 18:40 |
SaberX01 | aberrant, Yeah, those are all like htop, iostat etc, they just pulled them all together in on package it looks like. | 18:41 |
MonkeyDust | streulma it's a slow boot or no boot | 18:41 |
Siecje | I put an iso on a USB drive with unetbootin and when I boot off the USB Drive I get to a blue screen that says unetbootin and a menu with the only option being default, but nothing happens when I select it | 18:41 |
charly_ | i have installed a fresh copy of 64 bit ubuntu on a fresh hd. however my settings/details read os=32 | 18:41 |
michael__ | WeThePeople, so i should delete 13.10 and install 13.04 ? | 18:41 |
urataco | charly_: are you sure you computer is 32 bit | 18:41 |
urataco | err 64 bit | 18:41 |
WeThePeople | michael__, no maybe you could extrapolate from 13.04 directions | 18:42 |
charly_ | i dont know. but im utilizing ubuntu as we speak, no problem | 18:42 |
streulma | MonkeyDust: Ubuntu is slow, the windows are slow opened, graphics running slow, I'm on a superfast SSD :) | 18:42 |
MonkeyDust | michael__ if you choose a lower release, then use 12.04 LTS | 18:42 |
charly_ | i have less than 2 g ram if that declares bit rate.... | 18:42 |
urataco | I have a desktop I use for testing that had a chipset component that was 32 bit only, so while the cpu supported 64bit, the chipset was forced to use 32 bit OSes | 18:43 |
michael__ | WeThePeople, i installed lubuntu yesterday and have no data on it.. the first thing i wanted was installing drivers.. so it wouldnt be a problem to format my hdd and install 13.04 if this solves the problem | 18:43 |
MonkeyDust | streulma i'm not familiar with nvidia or dual screen, surely somene else can help better | 18:43 |
michael__ | lubuntu has no LTS | 18:43 |
MonkeyDust | michael__ ok, wasnt aware | 18:43 |
michael__ | MonkeyDust, lubuntu has no LTS | 18:43 |
WeThePeople | michael__, what brand computer do you have | 18:43 |
michael__ | WeThePeople, Samsung NF110 | 18:43 |
michael__ | it is a netbook.. that is why i want lubuntu.. | 18:44 |
michael__ | weak hardware | 18:44 |
Shutterstrom | Ampelbein: Alright! Thanks. Let's just keep the fingers crossed then. | 18:44 |
charly_ | does ram declare bit (under 2g 32/over 64?) | 18:44 |
streulma | not dualscreen MonkeyDust, but I have 2 video cards, not Intel and Nvidia, but Nvidia 9400M 256MB and Nvidia 9600M 512MB | 18:44 |
=== Joel is now known as Guest56208 | ||
WeThePeople | michael__, here is some ppa packages for ya | 18:46 |
Shutterstrom | Ampelbein: But if Ubuntu is so dependent on their packages, is it better to not use packages for software that have frequent upgrades, or even to look for another dist then Ubuntu if I want to install this type of software. | 18:46 |
charly_ | lol, help. why does my 64 bit ubuntu installation read settings/details os=32 | 18:46 |
mehdi | is there an online viewable view of the ubuntu source code? or must i download a copy? | 18:47 |
WeThePeople | michael__, scroll through this website>>> https://getsatisfaction.com/jolicloud/topics/samsung_n140_brightness_and_wifi_hotkeys_not_working | 18:47 |
WeThePeople | michael__, ppas>>> https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa | 18:47 |
WeThePeople | for the backlight | 18:47 |
Ampelbein | Shutterstrom: With the right technical knowledge, you can make your own packages (based on the maintainer's work) and still have all the advantages that the package manager provides. | 18:47 |
WeThePeople | if you decide to install diff. distro | 18:48 |
michael__ | WeThePeople, i installed this.. but it doesnt work | 18:48 |
bekks | mehdi: There is nothing like "the source code of ubuntu". It consists of thousands of packages, each with its own source code. And you can download the source for every package if you want. | 18:48 |
mehdi | kernel source in particular | 18:48 |
mehdi | im going to download it in any case | 18:48 |
Ampelbein | Shutterstrom: And the basic problem wouldn't go away with chosing a different distribution: You'd still wait for the responsible maintainer to provide an update. | 18:49 |
WeThePeople | michael__, mine isnt working either and im on 12.04.2 x64 | 18:49 |
michael__ | WeThePeople, dunno.. i need the fn keys | 18:50 |
perhapstired | hello, I have a question- when I do sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/java in ubuntu, and press enter, and it just jumps onto a new line ready for me to write something else, almost as if nothing actually happened, did nothing actually happen or did I create a directory like I intended? Is it ok if I wasn't notified that a directory was actually created? | 18:50 |
mehdi | oh, it looks like kernel.org has viewable online source | 18:50 |
mehdi | :D | 18:50 |
Shutterstrom | Ampelbein: I kind of guessed that regarding different distribuition, but I had to ask :-) Once again. thanks for the help I'll try looking into building my own package. have a great evening where ever you are. | 18:50 |
perhapstired | Where is the /usr directory in ubuntu? I can't find it | 18:51 |
bekks | perhapstired: In /usr - like in every other linux. | 18:52 |
OerHeks | perhapstired, you can check if the folder is created with the 'ls' = list function >> sudo ls /usr/local/ | 18:52 |
perhapstired | bekks: yes sorry, thanks | 18:52 |
perhapstired | thanks oerneks | 18:52 |
michael__ | has no one an idea how to activate samsung-backlight on samsung nf110 with lubuntu 13.10 ? | 18:52 |
OerHeks | michael__, as the Voria ppa does not have saucy candidates, you are stuck . | 18:53 |
Bashing-om | perhapstired: normal behaviour, the system doing what it is told -> no complaints, no errors = no output. | 18:53 |

felon | and knowone gives a fuck about a samsung blacklight | 18:54 |
michael__ | OerHeks, why i need saucy? | 18:54 |
MonkeyDust | felon watch your language | 18:54 |
qnebra | Welcome | 18:54 |
OerHeks | michael__, you are on saucy 13.10 now | 18:54 |
urataco | felon what about my HP lavalamp | 18:54 |
felon | i like lavalamps | 18:55 |
vlouvet | michael__, saucy is the codename for 13.10 | 18:55 |
michael__ | what could i do to use quantal, precise or something like that ? | 18:55 |
OerHeks | michael__, you might want to go back to 12.04 lts until the ppa maintainer solves his issues | 18:55 |
vlouvet | download and burn to a cd and reinstall over the old installation | 18:55 |
michael__ | OerHeks, but lubuntu doesnt support lts.. and ubuntu is to big for my netbook | 18:56 |
vlouvet | michael__, i think you should try 13.04 lubuntu and see if that works if not go back one further | 18:56 |
michael__ | which version is quantal ? | 18:57 |
Siecje | 13.04 is out? | 18:57 |
SaberX01 | 13.04 is very near EOF .. 13.10 is going out in April I think, the best option is 12.04, and wait for the 14.04 release. | 18:57 |
Siecje | oh right 12.04 nvm | 18:58 |
Siecje | 13.04* | 18:58 |
Spyderp | Hi guys, just installed Ubuntu 13.10 x64 on native hardware (amd processor, ati graphics 7870) it istalls fine but when I boot up it gets past the loading screen and then goes black and reboots, no error message etc, I can run in compatibility mode and it gives a message about using software to compose the screen, so I guess it's a graphics problem, but how do I solve it please? Thank you | 18:58 |
MonkeyDust | Siecje 14.04 wil be out in april | 18:58 |
vlouvet | michael__, i thought there was 13.04 but instead i think oerheks is right 12.10 is best for now http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/quantal/release/ | 18:58 |
OerHeks | michael__, look at the ppa, raring has no candidates, quantal does | 18:58 |
daftykins | Spyderp: hi there, it sounds like your AMD graphics card is causing some fun. How are you booting into this compatibility mode exactly? | 18:59 |
SaberX01 | If you want to see your systems details: ubuntu-support-status .. in term. | 18:59 |
Spyderp | the only way I can boot into compatibility mode is with the live cd and choosing that option at boot | 18:59 |
michael__ | OerHeks, i am new with linux.. which distribution i need for quantal ? | 18:59 |
vlouvet | michael__, i gave you the link its http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/quantal/release/ | 19:00 |
usi | hi | 19:00 |
michael__ | ah, so i try to install lubuntu 12.10 | 19:00 |

vlouvet | usi, regarding cracking wep* | 19:02 |
SaberX01 | vlouvet, understand just saying, they wont be updating the repos at all soon. | 19:02 |
michael__ | what is EOF in this context? i only know this as "end of file" | 19:02 |
usi | but i cant understand dictionari | 19:02 |
ander_ | i'm have a issuse after i updated to 13.1o with my usb card reader | 19:02 |

SaberX01 | EOF = End of Life | 19:02 |
MonkeyDust | !eol | 19:02 |
ubottu | 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. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 19:02 |
usi | im new on ubuntu | 19:02 |
vlouvet | michael__, end of life for the product where the devs no longer patch | 19:02 |
SaberX01 | aka, end of Support for that particular Distro | 19:02 |
michael__ | yeah but if 12.10 is eof.. and 13.04 wont be supported for my netbook.. what should i do? | 19:03 |
daftykins | Spyderp: give this a try... | 19:03 |
daftykins | !nomodeset | Spyderp | 19:04 |
ubottu | Spyderp: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 19:04 |
Spyderp | ok thank you | 19:04 |
SaberX01 | michael__, have a looky here: http://www.ubuntu.com/info/release-end-of-life | 19:04 |
Spyderp | thanks very much I'll try that now | 19:04 |

ander_ | after i updated to 13.10 my usb card reader stop being seen .. nothing shows up under lsusb ... what could i try? | 19:05 |
felon | usi : its simple, install build-essential, install libssl-dev, install aircrack-ng, install backports, start playing :) | 19:05 |

michael__ | !mini ? | 19:05 |
ubottu | michael__: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:05 |
MonkeyDust | !mini | 19:06 |
ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 19:06 |
SaberX01 | aircrack-ng not in the repos | 19:06 |

Phoebus | MonkeyDust, asked a few, I'm at this stage: http://pastebin.ca/2528174 3 sets of rtl drivers all error out on compilation. | 21:11 |
MonkeyDust | Phoebus ok, start from the beginning, what are you doing and what goes wrong | 21:12 |
Phoebus | MonkeyDust, trying to install TP-LINK wn822n on Ubuntu 13. Shows on lsusb as 'RTL8192CU 802.11n WLAN Adapter', found 3 guides went through them, found one source based driver, failed same message as pastebin. Found a *.deb, failed same error. | 21:14 |
Evelynx | Hello, I have a problem with installing curl and apparently something is wrong with my package manager in general: http://pastebin.com/iv9FrUPk | 21:14 |
Evelynx | And according to the updating system the package manager is broken: http://www.tiikoni.com/tis/view/?id=edfd022 | 21:15 |
MonkeyDust | Phoebus and that's a router? | 21:15 |
Evelynx | Have only been using Xubuntu for a few days so sorry if this is a dumb question, couldn't find anything about this in the FAQ either. | 21:16 |
Phoebus | MonkeyDust, USB access point/adapter. | 21:16 |
Evelynx | And not with Google either. | 21:16 |
Evelynx | So how do I fix this? It told me to run 'apt-get install -f' but that only leads to more errors as you can see in that pastebin. | 21:17 |
Rav3nW00D | heyo | 21:18 |
Beldar | Evelynx, Is this a mint install? | 21:22 |
Phoebus | MonkeyDust, and Beldar thank you fixed it, for future ref: http://askubuntu.com/questions/290452/installing-workaround-realtek-drivers-for-edimax-but-getting-error | 21:25 |
Beldar | Phoebus, cool, | 21:25 |
Evelynx | Beldar, I'm not sure what you mean with 'mint install' but in case you are asking if it's Mint it's not, it's Xubuntu. | 21:25 |
MonkeyDust | Phoebus that's how good we are (joke) | 21:25 |
Phoebus | Lol, no worries, the company helps too :) | 21:26 |
pac1 | without upgrading, can I grab a package from trusty? | 21:26 |
jhutchins | pac1: Mixing releases is a great way to get to do a clean reinstall! | 21:27 |
pac1 | should be harmless. few dependencies. | 21:28 |
pac1 | mostly harmless... | 21:28 |
Beldar | pac1, Have you looked in a ppa? | 21:28 |
MicW | hi | 21:28 |
pac1 | I googled git-mediawiki and didn't see any ppa entries for it. (its in trusty, apparently new) let me redo the search. | 21:29 |
MicW | i try to get an "lxc" init script that starts/stop linux containers after zfs-mount is execued. so i added "Should-Start: $zfs" to my script | 21:29 |
MicW | zfs-mount provides "zfs" | 21:29 |
MicW | but it does not work, startup order is still wrong | 21:30 |
adyzx | just completed an ubuntu minimal install on an older laptop. Following these instructions: http://tinyurl.com/nkgy6zx | 21:30 |

adyzx | I'm am now on "Post Installation". Problem is, I'm in grub. I press "Alt+F1" and don't the command line. What am i doing wrong? | 21:31 |

Beldar | adyzx, the tty is not available at grub, you can boot to the cli if you have not added a desktop in the install, to add a desktop if that's you goal. | 21:33 |

hussain | vince: how to find ip adress through terminal?? | 21:34 |
pac1 | what Ip address? | 21:35 |
pac1 | yours? | 21:35 |
pac1 | something else? | 21:35 |
MonkeyDust | hussain local ip address or public? | 21:35 |
hussain | mac address: | 21:35 |

pac1 | hussain, we assume you are dealing with your local network. Is this at home, or elsewhere? | 21:37 |

duck304 | @BeWilled: check you it is installed by locate [program] or by which [program] and just rm -r [folder]. that is how I remove that | 22:15 |

stoffel00 | hi. panic :'( I have overwritten sudo mv file /dev/sda1 what can I do? | 22:19 |
BeWilled | duck304:I deleted the folder but it keeps showing in locate :S | 22:19 |
Beldar | stoffel00, what was sda1? | 22:20 |
stoffel00 | mounted on / | 22:20 |
vithic | BeWilled, the database that locate pulls information from only updates occasionally. | 22:21 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 sda1 is a partition, you can overwrite that with mv | 22:21 |
MonkeyDust | cannot* | 22:21 |
ander_ | ran lsusb and my device was not seem... what would your next step be? ubuntu 13.10 | 22:21 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 so start from the beginning, what have you done and what are you experiencing now | 22:22 |
stoffel00 | but /dev/sda1 is now a file .... | 22:22 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 yes, everything is a file in linux, in a terminal, type mount to know where sda1 is mounted | 22:23 |
duck304 | has some one ever checkt http://devincharge.com/compiling-apache-2-4-ubuntu-12-04/ ? | 22:24 |
stoffel00 | it is mounted on / | 22:24 |
duck304 | and made it working even with SSL? | 22:24 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 good, so what's the problem | 22:24 |
BeWilled | Removed binary is missing after I apt-get installed the program again (its in the repository too) | 22:25 |
ithought | solution was sudo mandb -c | 22:26 |
stoffel00 | ls -lh /dev/sdb1 shows brw-rw---- 1 root disk' | 22:26 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 b means block device, iirc | 22:27 |
stoffel00 | but ls -lh /dev/sda1 like a normal file -rw-rw-r-- ... | 22:27 |
Catalin- | Hi there. | 22:27 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 what is your actual question? | 22:28 |
stoffel00 | what happend if i restart my computer? will /dev/sda1 mounted? | 22:28 |
BeWilled | this is the output /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg: No such file or directory | 22:29 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 everything looks normal, so nothing special would happen | 22:29 |
stoffel00 | why the difference between ls -lh /dev/sda1 and ls -lh /dev/sdb1 ? | 22:30 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled in a terminal, type which ffmpeg to know why you get that message | 22:30 |
MonkeyDust | stoffel00 sda1 and sdb1 are partition names | 22:31 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust: /usr/bin/ffmpeg | 22:31 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled see, ffmpeg sits in /usr/bin/ and not in /usr/local/bin/ | 22:31 |

mikodo | rsync when you guys are syncing directories, like ( /dir/ ) , if we don't use (--delete), then everything on the receiving directory will always be saved. But, the receiving directory, for me the (backup), has the potential to becoming very big. Have I got this right? | 22:32 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust: where is the command redirected to that possition? | 22:32 |
=== sysadmin is now known as VLanX | ||
rww | mikodo: yes | 22:33 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled /usr/bin/ is where the executables are located, it's in your path | 22:33 |
stoffel00 | i know. ls -lh /dev/ -rwx------ 1 peter peter 4G | 22:33 |
mikodo | rww, Thanks | 22:33 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust: but when I type ffmpeg it redirects it to /usr/local/bin/ | 22:34 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust: where can I fix that pointer? | 22:35 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled not sure what you mean... redirects? | 22:35 |
stoffel00 | i know. ls -lh /dev/sda1 shows -rwx------ 1 root root 4G, ls -lh /dev/sda1 shows 'brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8'. | 22:35 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust: for me it's like a pointer where the file is supposted to be located but isn't | 22:36 |
stoffel00 | no, sdb1. again: ls -lh /dev/sda1 shows -rwx------ 1 root root 4G, ls -lh /dev/sdb1 shows 'brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8'. | 22:36 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled you mean the binary file ffmpeg? | 22:37 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust: I am talking about the relationship with the command to the location of the binary file | 22:37 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled the command IS the binary file | 22:37 |
BeWilled | BeWilled: when I type "ffmpeg" on terminal it references the the binary file | 22:38 |
stoffel00 | is /dev/sda1 still a partition? what happend after a reboot? | 22:38 |
tfous | Hello? | 22:39 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust: but that reference seems to be broken, so I need to point it to the right direction | 22:39 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled if you wnat, you can download the source of ffmpeg, because it is a file | 22:39 |
MonkeyDust | BeWilled what happens, when you type ffmpeg in a terminal | 22:40 |
BeWilled | MonkeyDust:bash: /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg: No such file or directory | 22:40 |

ubottu | krabador: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 23:29 |

Beldar | Ohga, There is a 3.8.2, however be careful with the latest outside the ubuntu repos, use only if really needed. | 23:44 |
Ohga | Beldar: you know if it uses semver? | 23:44 |
Ohga | Beldar: *versioned with semver | 23:45 |
jhutchins | !tor | 23:45 |
ubottu | Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 23:45 |
Beldar | Ohga, outside the repos is not supported, no idea on anything about it though. | 23:45 |
jhutchins | pepito: See if those docs help. | 23:45 |
vl4kn0 | Hi, I cannot get the ath9k module to work with network manager. It works with wicd. Any idea? | 23:46 |
Ohga | Beldar: alright, thanks | 23:46 |
Ohga | I'll try it and see what happens | 23:46 |
pepito | jhutchins, that doesn't help me :( ... I install pr | 23:50 |

BbbKUE | hi all | 23:51 |
pepito | privoxy with tor, it's because i want to have tor not just as a plugn in | 23:51 |
BbbKUE | how can I made my ubuntu box send its hostname via | 23:52 |
BbbKUE | my LAN? | 23:52 |
bekks | BbbKUE: Send it to whom/where? | 23:53 |
Gallomimia | very obscure question BbbKUE. how are you planning to use the hostname on other machines? | 23:53 |
=== Quark is now known as Guest21448 | ||
=== DGJones is now known as DJones | ||
Gallomimia | for example if the hostname is ubuntu, do you want to be able to type ssh ubuntu or connect to ftp ubuntu and the like? | 23:54 |
BbbKUE | I mean. in my router web page I can see the list of connected device and Windows PC are show edith thre hostname | 23:55 |
BbbKUE | *with their | 23:55 |
bekks | BbbKUE: Thats the DHCP status page of your router. | 23:55 |
Gallomimia | bekks: regardless, the hostname is still "sent" to the router, his question is valid | 23:56 |
Gallomimia | it's part of the dhcp request | 23:56 |
bekks | Gallomimia: I didnt say his question was invalid. | 23:56 |
BbbKUE | i disabile dhcp on it. and every device has a statica ip | 23:56 |
bekks | I just explained what that page is for. | 23:56 |
Burrito | Maybe the router should be assigned as a DNS server. | 23:57 |
general981 | hello | 23:57 |
Gallomimia | then.... why do you want your hostname sent to the router? | 23:57 |
general981 | !list | 23:57 |
ubottu | general981: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 23:57 |
BbbKUE | 'cause windows PC do that and linux not! | 23:58 |
Gallomimia | the "hostname" is sent as a dhcp client id, which you can configure in your ipv4 settings under wired connections. | 23:58 |
Burrito | Mine does. ._. | 23:58 |
Gallomimia | client-id is not equal to hostname | 23:58 |
Gallomimia | windows just confuses it for you | 23:58 |
Gallomimia | so does macosx | 23:58 |
Burrito | "We're right, everyone else is wrong!" :P | 23:59 |
BbbKUE | mmm... ok. how can I configure in IP4 settimana? | 23:59 |
BbbKUE | *settings | 23:59 |
