| ubottu | bfi1714: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 01:36 |
| dunpeal | gordonjcp: actually | 01:36 |
| dunpeal | looks like XFCE 4.10 has some pretty good tiling support | 01:37 |
| daftykins | bfi1714: you don't run as root. | 01:37 |
| bfi1714 | but why does the terminal doesn't accept a blank password to run the command? | 01:37 |
| bfi1714 | trick question | 01:37 |
| bfi1714 | I hate that terminal | 01:37 |
| bfi1714 | I try to use the apt-get and it denies me | 01:37 |
| bfi1714 | login failed | 01:37 |

| catalase_ | can anyone tell me why Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) is apache2 is already the newest version. | 01:41 |
| obi1kenobe | all i know how to install linux and do smal programs instalation | 01:41 |
| gordonjcp | I have six terminals and one PDF viewer visible just now | 01:41 |
| catalase_ | i did apt-get update and apt-get upgrade | 01:41 |
| dunpeal | gordonjcp: XFCE tiling features can help with that :) | 01:41 |
| catalase_ | but apache2 2.2.22 is apparently newest version? | 01:41 |
| gordonjcp | dunpeal: yeah, but XFCE sucks | 01:41 |
| gordonjcp | dunpeal: and tiling WMs belong back in the 1980s | 01:41 |
| gordonjcp | dunpeal: I ditched that crap decades ago and will never go back | 01:41 |
| spearhead | gordonjcp, dunpeal, try i3-wm... | 01:42 |
| dunpeal | gordonjcp: how is unity better than XFCE? | 01:42 |
| Euclidis | Gee, XFCE really sucks. | 01:42 |
| dunpeal | especially for a programmer | 01:42 |
| obi1kenobe | i like LXDE | 01:42 |
| gordonjcp | spearhead: no, I have seen i3-wm and I don't really like it | 01:42 |
| dunpeal | XFCE is the best desktop right now imho | 01:42 |
| gordonjcp | spearhead: it seems to be particularly geared up to people who have a bunch of terminals with tiny pixelly grey-on-grey text, and there's no easy way to make it usable | 01:42 |
| dunpeal | all the features, none of the crap. | 01:42 |
| gordonjcp | dunpeal: it doesn't crash all the time, for a start | 01:43 |
| dunpeal | gordonjcp: I haven't had XFCE crash on me once. | 01:43 |
| gordonjcp | lucky you | 01:43 |
| dunpeal | and I crashed components of Unity plenty (looking at you Dash) | 01:43 |
| gordonjcp | dash is *great* | 01:43 |
| spearhead | gordonjcp, that isn't true, it is very easy to configure and the colors definately are't grey on gray the terminal is a tan on blue, very easy on the eyes, everything else is window specific | 01:43 |
| gordonjcp | granted, Unity needs a fairly chunky machine | 01:44 |
| xangua | dunpeal: gordonjcp spearhead you can discuss your favorite DE on #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:44 |
| gordonjcp | this machine is a 2GHz core 2 duo with 1G of RAM | 01:44 |
| Diamondcite | That's plenty. | 01:44 |
| gordonjcp | Diamondcite: oh yah | 01:45 |
| gordonjcp | Diamondcite: my 2.8GHz Core 2 Duo with 4GB of RAM is great | 01:45 |
| Diamondcite | Well ram could use just a little work, but otherwise great (Compared to a Pentium 3 1GHz with 512MB of SDRAM) | 01:45 |
| gordonjcp | this one really needed another 512M added before Unity was happy | 01:45 |
| Diamondcite | It's more amazing a 10+ year old system can run unity. | 01:46 |
| gordonjcp | not really, Unity isn't particularly heavyweight | 01:46 |
| gordonjcp | you need a semidecent graphics card | 01:46 |
| BOvern | i have a 4 mega vga card | 01:47 |
| Diamondcite | It's! It's.. err.. I can't remember which card it uses.. did that tower even have one? | 01:47 |
| Diamondcite | Ubuntu also runs Kinda nice on a N270 Atom with 2GB of ram. | 01:48 |
| Euclidis | I've got an problem. I got an HP AMD A3500 APU Radeon HD 6620G. Happen that is running below 1.5 Ghz. Overclocking is overheating and slow.. | 01:49 |

| Ben64 | DrGrov: the only difference between them is the desktop environments, and you can install those easily, like "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" | 02:03 |
| DrGrov | Ben64: But I kind of want to remove Unity completely and switch to something else without lenses and social media integration things baked in the settings. | 02:04 |

| luis_ | hi guys, I was wondering if you can help me. I have the following issue with my grub menu: it doesn't show the latest kernels I have installed | 02:05 |
| luis_ | when I try to run update-grub, it tells me I have to install grub or grub2-common, but when I try to install grub-common, it says this: "grub-common : Depends: liblzma2 (>= 4.999.9beta) but it is not installable" | 02:06 |
| DrGrov | BOvern: So? No, not really. I just prefer to keep all my social media things separated from the OS itself. Through a browser is how I like to use social media. | 02:06 |
| Ben64 | DrGrov: something like this would do it, but this is for 12.10, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekubuntu | 02:06 |

| oddisay | Hello..? | 04:50 |
| RandomStrayCat | hi | 04:50 |
| oddisay | Hello RandomStrayCat. | 04:50 |
| oddisay | Do you think you can assist me with a slight issue I'm having with my dual nVidia cards and dual monitors, RandomStrayCat? | 04:51 |
| RandomStrayCat | Bumblebee! | 04:52 |
| oddisay | Ah... yes? I've heard of Bumblebee before. | 04:52 |
| RandomStrayCat | I'm pretty sure you will have to use that program | 04:52 |
| oddisay | I have both my monitors working perfectly when they're plugged into my first graphics card. It's when I plug in the 2nd monitor to my 2nd graphics card that the 2nd monitor stops working and simply shows a grey screen with an 'X' for the cursor. | 04:53 |
| Gr4cchus | guys i dont get it, i plug in my usb drive, it auto mounts, then i go to type sudo umount /dev/sdb1 and it seems to run fine, yet in my icon list it still shows the usb drive, however when i do a ls of /media/user it finds nothing? | 04:54 |
| Gr4cchus | and when i go to look at my files through the gui, it still shows the drive. | 04:55 |
| oddisay | Gr4cchus, are you trying to boot from the USB or something? | 04:55 |
| Gr4cchus | no im just trying to manually mount it, and then unmount it is all | 04:55 |
| oddisay | I see. | 04:56 |
| oddisay | Why don't you just unplug it? | 04:56 |
| Gr4cchus | cause its to easy and learning terminal is to fun, plus if u run a server edition u dont get easy mode. | 04:57 |
| Gr4cchus | from my understanding there is the device and the mount point, maybe if i try the other it will work? otherwise maybe the automount feature is causing some sort of conflict | 04:58 |
| oddisay | Hmm.. yes.. interesting. | 04:58 |
| oddisay | Sure, make sure you are manually unmounting the correct media device from your Terminal. | 04:58 |
| Gr4cchus | im pretty confident i did cause when i sudo fdisk -l i find the /dev/sdb1 which is formatted fat32 and is usually the usb drive location or w/e | 05:00 |
| oddisay | That sounds right to me. | 05:01 |
| === Sleepnbum is now known as Guest16631 | ||
| oddisay | So when you unmount it via Terminal, the USB and its files are still accessible via Nautilus? | 05:02 |
| oddisay | What happens if you unmount it using the GUI? | 05:02 |
| Gr4cchus | maybe i did it correctly, maybe the problem is with the gui itself, cause when i go to select it with the file manager or w/e and select it, it seems to then be mounted again cause after i selected it i did a ls on /media/username and then it showed again | 05:02 |
| oddisay | That's probably it. | 05:03 |
| oddisay | Maybe try closing the current file manager window and then open a new one and see what happens. | 05:03 |
| bfi1714 | what's the shortcut for the terminal on mint? | 05:04 |
| oddisay | Even though you unmounted the USB, I guess Ubuntu still detects that it is plugged in and can, therefore, re-mount it. | 05:04 |
| oddisay | bfi1714, I think it is CTRL + ALT + PRTSC + K (last time I read). | 05:04 |
| melio | now next thing to do . get the printer working! | 05:05 |
| oddisay | 8-) | 05:05 |
| Gr4cchus | oddisay, yeah that sounds plausible, just a little misleading. | 05:05 |
| melio | i'll take care of that tommrow or next week. or the next time i say. OH dam i need a printer | 05:05 |
| Gr4cchus | cause then u dont have to create a manual mount which is slightly confusing. | 05:05 |
| Gr4cchus | oddisay, thanks for the help though | 05:06 |
| oddisay | Gr4cchus, yea. | 05:06 |
| fizyplankton | if i made a backup of a hard drive (i.e. dd if=/dev/sda of=backup.img), can i restore that backup with dd if=backup.img of=/dev/sda if the new harddrive is larger than the old? | 05:07 |
| oddisay | No problem Gr4cchus, I am actually an Ubuntu-noob hehe. | 05:07 |
| oddisay | fizyplankton, I do not know. | 05:08 |
| Gr4cchus | oddisay, same, pretty much brand new. Its a blast though | 05:10 |

| FBIWarnin | mojtaba: I would perfer cut in this case. find path_to_file -name some_filter |xargs cut -c1-3 > outputfile | 05:42 |
| mojtaba | FBIWarnin: Actually I just would like to do it in a for loop, because all the 001 files are going to merge to one file, all 002 in another file, so on. But I do not know how to implement that. Do you have any idea? | 05:43 |
| FBIWarnin | mojtaba: if you want to run in parallel, you can use xargs -n 1 -P 8 in this case | 05:44 |
| FBIWarnin | mojtaba: which run 8 jobs | 05:44 |
| fizyplankton | mojtaba: does it have to be a shell script? i could whip you up a simple python script | 05:45 |

| mojtaba | FBIWarnin: I just want to merge these mp3 files, but I do not know how to do it. | 05:45 |
| cfhowlett | mojtaba, use audacity ... | 05:46 |

| mojtaba | cfhowlett: is it command line? | 05:46 |
| cfhowlett | mojtaba, nope. got to the party late and missed that. | 05:46 |
| FBIWarnin | mojtaba: you can use ffmpeg | 05:46 |
| mojtaba | FBIWarnin: what would be the command based on that pattern then? | 05:47 |
| FBIWarnin | mojtaba: ffmpeg -i "concat:1.mp3|2.mp3" -acodec copy output.mp3 | 05:47 |
| mojtaba | FBIWarnin: It could not be that simple, as I have about 6000 files, and I would like to merge all 001* files together, all 002* files together, and so on. | 05:48 |
| FBIWarnin | mojtaba: the other stuff is just scripting | 05:48 |
| cfhowlett | mojtaba, actually ffmpeg IS that easy. it's all in the wildcard command configurations | 05:48 |
| FBIWarnin | mojtaba: if I were you I'd generate a script first, review it, then execute it | 05:49 |
| mojtaba | FBIWarnin: Could you please give me more hint? as I really do not know how to do this. | 05:49 |

| cfhowlett | mojtaba, read up on it. www.ffmpeg.org/documentation.html | 05:49 |

| mojtaba | FBIWarnin: let me check that. | 05:54 |
| fizyplankton | save that to a .py file in the directory, then "python script.py". if you want it to output the files elsewhere, add the path before the 2nd %s in line 11 | 05:55 |

| bioman | Just installed my first Ubuntu | 08:06 |
| widdershins | hitsujiTMO: i ried it again, the light came on and the program froze the moment i hit record video in Cheese. here's the output | 08:07 |
| thom_r | what can we help you with bioman? | 08:07 |
| widdershins | hitsujiTMO: it'll activate, i'll see myself for a split second, and then it freezes. it lets me turn "off" the camera, but 00:00:00 remains on the timer. i turn it off, turn it back on again and the camera lights tays on but the progra, window dims | 08:08 |
| bioman | thom_r: I've found on the Net how to uninstall completely pule for alsa. But now, my DAC isn't detected, so no sound... (xubuntu 12.04 LTS) | 08:08 |
| widdershins | hitsujiTMO: the camera WORKS for google plus hangouts... was using that today | 08:08 |
| thom_r | wait, you uninstalled pulse audio? | 08:09 |
| === MomoNasty is now known as Momo|Off | ||
| bioman | thom_r: yep, I prefer alsa | 08:09 |
| edwardly | Is there any reason that when I modprobe an alias it outputs nothing to stderr or the kernel log, but doesn't insert - but when I modprobe the module directly it works fine? I've been trying to use nvidia-331 on saucy; modprobe nvidia does nothing so it breaks automatically loading the nvidia module for X to work | 08:09 |
| thom_r | so you uninstalled pulse audio, and now you are having audio problems? | 08:09 |
| hoki | hi guys, i have the following specs: intel dual core 2.1ghz, 4gb of ram, and an intel mobile GM45 Express Chipset video card on a four-ish year old laptop. Is this enough to have Ubuntu 13.10 run without hiccups on my computer? | 08:09 |
| bioman | thom_r: that's it | 08:10 |
| edwardly | But modprobe --resolve-alias nvidia returns nvidia_331 | 08:10 |
| widdershins | hoki: should run ubuntu, it's pretty light-weight. I'm not a pro, but Im pretty sure that system requirements are out there | 08:10 |
| edwardly | Is there any way to go further than modprobe -v to debug modprobe? | 08:10 |
| thom_r | maybe you should install pulse audio. | 08:10 |
| hitsujiTMO | widdershins: i'd file a bug in that case. what to file it against i'm not sure of. Could start with cheese | 08:10 |
| widdershins | hoki: http://askubuntu.com/questions/361356/minimum-system-reqirerments-for-ubuntu-13-10 | 08:11 |
| widdershins | well damnit. i'll have to do it later, it's almost 5am here... been at this for a while already. i know that it WORKS because i took a conference call today. | 08:11 |
| hoki | thanks widdershins! | 08:11 |
| hitsujiTMO | hoki: may have some minor issues with unity with that gpu but otherwise perfect | 08:12 |
| widdershins | hoki: no sweat, pally. These guys have done me a LOT of service, the least I can do is pass along what I can | 08:12 |
| widdershins | night all. and thanks, hitsujiTMO | 08:12 |
| edwardly | Hmm | 08:13 |
| edwardly | Seems there may be a blacklist in place put there by bumblebeed | 08:14 |
| edwardly | but bumblebeed won't run anyway since I don't have an optimus card.. | 08:14 |
| hitsujiTMO | edwardly: then purge bumblebee | 08:14 |
| edwardly | That's what I'm trying now, yeah | 08:14 |
| edwardly | That was it. How weird. | 08:16 |
| edwardly | No idea how bumblebee was even installed, but it included a blacklist for the nvidia driver. Purging it fixed it. Cheers! | 08:16 |
| ahmad_ | why if i open xchat trough terminal the terminal cannot do anything else? | 08:16 |
| rww | ahmad_: because its input goes to xchat and its output comes from xchat | 08:17 |
| rww | you perhaps prefer to run it in the background: xchat & | 08:17 |
| ahmad_ | so if i typed something now in terminal | 08:17 |
| SloththeRock | Hey all. I am trying to make a script that I can execute no matter what directory I am in. Can anyone point me in the right direction? | 08:18 |
| ahmad_ | it'll show up in the xchat? | 08:18 |
| rww | no, because xchat ignores that input | 08:18 |
| ahmad_ | i see | 08:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | SloththeRock: you need it to be in your path. there is a dir you can make for personal scripts. ~/bin anything in there will be available for you globally | 08:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | SloththeRock: you will need to reload the terminal to activate the private bin dir | 08:21 |

| m3kk | bingo: dont put themes there | 09:04 |
| bingo | ok, where can i ? | 09:04 |
| m3kk | bingo: go into your home directory, press super+h i think ( to show hidden folders) | 09:05 |
| m3kk | and create a folder named .theme | 09:05 |
| m3kk | the . makes it hidden | 09:05 |
| m3kk | then put the theme there instead... saves you alot of issues | 09:05 |
| m3kk | perhaps it is ctrl+h | 09:05 |
| bingo | done, will that theme show in the menu of themes? | 09:06 |
| m3kk | then just make those hidden again | 09:06 |

| === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler | ||
| DrGrov | Ben64: But I should probably have kept the original username, yes? | 09:23 |
| Ben64 | DrGrov: you said you could see the home on the 1TB, can you navigate to that directory with terminal and pastebin "ls -l" | 09:23 |
| DrGrov | Ben64: Yes, will do. | 09:23 |
| Ben64 | and no, you don't need to keep the same username, will probably just have to rename it, then add the 1TB drive as /home to the fstab and it'll work fine | 09:24 |
| m3kk | bingo: is that greybird? | 09:25 |
| bingo | yes, as i see it. I have trouble with Albatross as well, a documented one | 09:26 |
| m3kk | bingo: there is two places where you manage themes in xfce, check something that is called window manager customize" | 09:26 |
| willbradley | rww: hitsujiTMO: my rule of thumb is, if i can copy-paste their question into google and the first result is a likely answer, then lmgtfy is legitimized | 09:26 |
| willbradley | newbs gotta learn somehow | 09:26 |
| m3kk | bingo: there you change window border to greybird also.. they are seperated | 09:27 |
| willbradley | gotta be exact copy-paste though. i rephrased bingo's so didn't give them the douchey treatment ;) | 09:27 |
| DrGrov | Ben64: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6731518/ | 09:27 |
| bingo | i see window manager and window manger tweaks | 09:28 |
| m3kk | bingo: chech either.. i know changing window borders isnt done in theme manager | 09:28 |
| bingo | ill play around, ty | 09:28 |

| Ben64 | DrGrov: yep, so all you'd need to do is rename "deathstar" to "cj" and put that drive in /etc/fstab as /home | 09:29 |
| DrGrov | Ben64: Should I remove all the /home/. directories first from there just in case? | 09:31 |

| DrGrov | Ben64: Ok, will restart to confirm. | 09:45 |

| Ben64 | you didn't rename the directory :) | 09:53 |
| DrGrov | Ben64: Ah, of course :) | 09:53 |
| DrGrov | Ben64: Can I just do a root somehow while in ttyl1 and rename it there directly? | 09:53 |
| Ben64 | if you're logged in, you can use use sudo | 09:53 |
| DrGrov | Yes, logged in ttyl1 | 09:54 |
| Ben64 | guests can't sudo though | 09:54 |
| DrGrov | Is it sudo rename deathstar and to what I want? | 09:54 |
| Ben64 | sudo mv /home/deathstar /home/<your username> | 09:55 |

| krababbel | Hi, I want to send and receive email on the lan on the commandline. I setup my own smtp and imap/pop3 server on the lan. Do I have to install an MTA like Postfix on the clients? | 10:42 |
| krababbel | I ask because mailutils and bsd-mailx want to install Postfix, but Thunderbird for example doesn't? Does Thunderbird have its own MTA then? | 10:44 |
| emo | i guess | 10:45 |
| krababbel | I see | 10:45 |
| emo | which V of ubuntu you are using | 10:46 |
| nevyn | no. | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | krababbel: yes, it does | 10:46 |
| krababbel | emo: 13.10 server | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | krababbel: okay, why are you installing Thunderbird on a server? | 10:46 |
| krababbel | Thanks. | 10:46 |
| nevyn | so you can just confure an MUA to use your smtp and imap server | 10:46 |
| nevyn | thunderbird is a MUA it can't do what a MTA does. | 10:47 |
| krababbel | gordonjcp: no, only the clients could have thunderbird, I don't need to install any mail-reader on the server. | 10:47 |
| emo | ubuntu 13.10 desktop n | 10:47 |
| === d3fc0n is now known as Guest10507 | ||
| krababbel | Well, I'd like to install the simplest form of MUA for a client. This is just a testlab, so all machines run ubuntu server actually, but the mail-server should not have Thunderbird or similar. | 10:48 |
| nevyn | mail, mutt, elm, pine etc | 10:49 |
| nevyn | krababbel: so you probably want to instaall a mta on the clients if they're servers | 10:50 |
| krababbel | nevyn: I was confused about the need to install postfix, but I could just use ssmtp then? | 10:50 |
| === djD3f is now known as d3fc0n | ||
| nevyn | sure. | 10:50 |
| nevyn | postfix is just the default mta. | 10:50 |
| nevyn | it could be configured in a dumb configuration to just send everything to your mailserver. | 10:51 |
| gabmus | hello, i have a gpt problem i am not able to solve | 10:51 |
| gabmus | can someone help me? | 10:51 |

| gabmus | gpg* | 10:51 |
| interweb | When does chromium added to ubuntu's repository? | 10:51 |
| krababbel | nevyn: There should be only one central mail-server. I just want to send mail from other machines using that central server. But still I'll need some MTA on all machines then? Correct? | 10:51 |
| krababbel | nevyn: OK, SSMPT maybe then. | 10:51 |
| krababbel | Thanks | 10:51 |
| nevyn | that would be the usual way to do it with unix | 10:51 |
| nevyn | but it's not the only way | 10:51 |
| === Sinis_smooth is now known as GREECE|Sinis | ||
| === GREECE|Sinis is now known as Sinis_smooth | ||
| krababbel | nevyn: Do you mean there are different MTAs available? | 10:52 |
| nevyn | no i mean you could just use a mua that can talk smtp to the central mailserver | 10:52 |
| nevyn | and not have a local mta at all on the clients | 10:53 |
| nevyn | but that's a more unusual configuration | 10:53 |
| krababbel | nevyn: OK, I see, I thought that was the usual config. :) Thanks. | 10:53 |
| nevyn | krababbel: so the thing is LOTS of stuff sends email | 10:54 |
| nevyn | in particular lots of system things send email | 10:54 |
| nevyn | cron, at and log reporting systems | 10:54 |
| krababbel | But having multiple users per machine would make it desireable to have an mta locally I guess. And cron etc also, indeed. | 10:55 |
| krababbel | I understand now. | 10:55 |

| lazytechsupportg | true | 11:16 |
| chemist^ | peyam so what do you actually want? | 11:16 |

| cfhowlett | sus, if it's ONLY .flv that fails, that suggests a codec issue. run sudo apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras. for good measure, also sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-pugrade | 11:20 |

| cfhowlett | Andreas, webbrowser .... webchat.freenode.net | 11:40 |
| Andreas | ubuntu installer detects my other drives, my SSD and my USB hd | 11:40 |
| bekks | Andreas: And are these "other" drives connected to the same controller? | 11:40 |
| kostkon | cfhowlett, irc.ubuntu.com easier to remember | 11:40 |
| cfhowlett | kostkon, was unware of same. thank you. | 11:40 |

| Andreas | bekks i looked inside the can yesterday and i think so. but i'll boot into ubuntu installer so i can solve it from there | 11:41 |
| Aric | I'm using Ubuntu Server 12.04 x64 LTS... My PHP version is 5.3.10 but I want PHP 5.4... I saw on askubuntu to add a python-software thingy (forget exact name) so that I could add a PPA, then to do apt-get update and apgrade... but I am still at PHP 5.3.10? Can anyone help? | 11:41 |
| bekks | Aric: Well, did you add a PPA, too? | 11:42 |
| Aric | ya, following this, but just found out I may have messed up sorry one sec | 11:43 |
| Aric | nope I didn't | 11:44 |
| Aric | I did what was listed here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/109404/how-do-i-install-latest-php-in-supported-ubuntu-versions-like-5-4-x-in-ubuntu-1 | 11:44 |
| Aric | php -v = PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.9 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Dec 12 2013 04:27:25) | 11:44 |
| chemist^ | Aric, in order to add PPA repositories you need to install "python-software-properties" first | 11:45 |
| bekks | Aric: Well, then you didnt do what is listed there. | 11:45 |
| cem_ | hi all | 11:45 |
| Aric | did that | 11:45 |
| chemist^ | and then do a "sudo add-apt-repository blabla" | 11:45 |
| Aric | added the python software properties | 11:45 |
| Aric | then the PPA | 11:45 |
| Aric | then update and upgrade | 11:45 |
| chemist^ | and? | 11:45 |
| cem_ | i wanna learn is there any program like dreamweaver on ubuntu? | 11:45 |
| chemist^ | still not upgrading? | 11:45 |
| Aric | I'm trying "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" per a comment but it wasn't in the main answer | 11:46 |
| greyhatpython | hi i am using Ubuntu 13.10 on USB, i want copy the data from windows machine to my usb key, but the copy and paste option is not highlighted. Please help. | 11:46 |
| cem_ | i wanna make a wery small web page and i dont know coding | 11:46 |
| bekks | Aric: So which PPA did you add? | 11:46 |
| Aric | ppa:ondrej/php5 | 11:46 |
| greyhatpython | cem_ go to codecademy.com | 11:46 |
| cem_ | ok | 11:46 |
| cem_ | thanx | 11:46 |
| greyhatpython | You welcome! | 11:47 |
| Aric | after dist-upgrade now = PHP 5.5.7-1+sury.org~precise+1 (cli) (built: Dec 12 2013 21:37:40) | 11:47 |
| Aric | yay | 11:47 |
| cem_ | oh | 11:47 |
| Aric | 5.5 is fine for me, it;s stable but some PHP stuff needed 5.4+ so I'm good now | 11:47 |
| cem_ | but the site teaches coding | 11:47 |
| cem_ | i dont have time | 11:47 |
| Aric | cem_: if you have no interest in coding look into something like wordpress | 11:47 |
| cem_ | i need to finish this page today | 11:48 |
| === Cit0n is now known as Citr0n | ||
| cem_ | 2 small pages that include a ling an biography | 11:48 |
| cem_ | link and a biography | 11:48 |
| greyhatpython | cem_ you don't need dreamweaver if you learn coding. Just learn html is enough for basic website. | 11:48 |
| Aric | Thanks everyone, but I got it fixed o/ | 11:48 |
| bekks | cem_: If you dont want to learn how to do things, no one can help you. | 11:48 |
| thinku | cem, try aptnastudio | 11:49 |
| greyhatpython | hi i am using Ubuntu 13.10 on USB, i want copy the data from windows machine to my usb key, but the copy and paste option is not highlighted. Please help. | 11:49 |
| chemist^ | greyhatpython, paste it anyway | 11:49 |
| chemist^ | greyhatpython it sometimes gets grayed-out but you can still click on it | 11:49 |
| thinku | cem, http://www.aptana.com/ | 11:50 |
| greyhatpython | nope it's not working i tried gksudo but it's not installed and i can't even install it... | 11:50 |
| chemist^ | (i think it's when you try to copy protected files or to a protected target path) | 11:50 |
| cem_ | thanx im downloading it | 11:50 |
| cem_ | i will try | 11:50 |
| chemist^ | greyhatpython, try copying the files using terminal commands | 11:50 |
| greyhatpython | but why is this problem in new version of Ubuntu, while 10.10 was straight forward! | 11:51 |
| chemist^ | it's not a problem related to a new version of ubuntu | 11:52 |
| eyfour | greyhatpython: Are you trying to copy to the USB-stick while running Ubuntu from the very same stick? | 11:52 |
| bekks | greyhatpython: Why "cant you install it"? | 11:52 |
| chemist^ | it's strange you can't install anything on your live session | 11:52 |
| greyhatpython | Install on usb? | 11:52 |
| chemist^ | it gets deleted when you shutdown | 11:52 |
| greyhatpython | I am running ubuntu live usb. | 11:52 |
| eyfour | greyhatpython: ...and you are trying to write to that same USB while running Uubntu, right? It won't work. | 11:53 |
| chemist^ | yes...so what :) | 11:53 |
| greyhatpython | why can't? | 11:53 |
| chemist^ | you need to add persistence to your live usb | 11:53 |
| chemist^ | in order to save files on it | 11:54 |
| eyfour | greyhatpython: Because the "live" file system mounts itself as read-only. | 11:54 |
| chemist^ | greyhatpython, you need to add a new partition ext4 on the remaining unpartitioned space available on your USB | 11:54 |
| chemist^ | and name it persistence | 11:54 |
| greyhatpython | ok but it is not copying even to another hard drive | 11:54 |
| chemist^ | well..that's odd :) | 11:55 |
| chemist^ | greyhatpython, have you tried opening nautilus with sudo? | 11:55 |
| greyhatpython | yeah.......... | 11:55 |
| Andreas_ | im in the ubuntu demo now. I can see the harddrive to the left. but the installer cannot detect it. | 11:55 |
| chemist^ | greyhatpython, and what error does it give you when you try to copy via terminal commands? | 11:55 |
| bekks | Andreas_: What is the "Ubuntu demo"? | 11:56 |
| eyfour | greyhatpython: I see. What kind of file system is on the "other" hard drive? | 11:56 |
| eyfour | bekks: Probably synonymous with Live DVD/USB | 11:56 |
| chemist^ | probably ntfs :) | 11:56 |
| greyhatpython | well sudo nautilus didn't work so i tried gksudo it was by installed on previous ubuntu, now that's the problem. | 11:56 |
| bekks | chemist^: using graphical applications with sudo is strongly discouraged. Use gksudo instead. | 11:56 |
| === Varazir_ is now known as Varazir | ||
| greyhatpython | gksudo not installed and not installing from internet too! | 11:57 |
| === Mars is now known as Guest49154 | ||
| Andreas_ | bekks: when booting from the live CD, you get two options: try the demo, or install Ubuntu | 11:57 |
| chemist^ | bekks, ok | 11:57 |
| bekks | greyhatpython: because your USB installation does not support persistence. | 11:58 |
| chemist^ | greyhatpython, try doing it in terminal, use cp command (copy, paste) | 11:58 |
| greyhatpython | I don't think it's related to persistence of the usb key. I am copying file from one hard drive to another. | 11:59 |
| greyhatpython | i need to try terminal | 11:59 |
| Andreas_ | do I need to unmount the disk before I can install onto it? | 11:59 |
| bekks | Andreas_: yes. | 12:00 |
| Andreas_ | according to this i should unmount, ill try that before installation http://superuser.com/questions/319661/what-does-the-following-disks-have-mounted-partitions-mean-while-installing-ub | 12:02 |

| sunmoon | hi all | 12:04 |
| Andreas_ | 'install ubuntu alongside windows 7' will that allow me to choose onto which drive to install ubuntu? | 12:04 |
| sunmoon | am having trouble copying movie files onto my xubuntu system. can anyone point me in the right direction? | 12:05 |
| GnikLlort | hmm | 12:05 |
| mrp123 | Andreas - I'm not an expert but I beleive that it will install ubuntu actually on the same partition as windows. | 12:06 |
| Andreas_ | mrp123 i think thats what happened last time | 12:06 |
| Andreas_ | i'll choose 'something else' | 12:06 |
| knightshade | Andreas_: We've all done that once, do you think we remember the installer options? :> | 12:06 |
| Sven_vB | OT/freenode question: is there another way to recover op (when nobody had registered the channel) than to wait for all others to leave? | 12:07 |
| bekks | Andreas_: Do you try to setup a dualboot? | 12:07 |
| Andreas_ | bekks y | 12:07 |
| Andreas_ | windows on 1 drive, ubunto on another | 12:08 |
| mrp123 | Andreas_ If you want it on a seperate hard drive you could just boot up into the installer an select that drive to install it on and then the bios can be used to select your prefered harddrive to boot into | 12:08 |
| universal | any channel for printers ? specifically for dot-matrix printers ? | 12:08 |
| Sven_vB | Andreas_, i'd always use "something else", in order to see and modify what will actually happen. | 12:08 |
| hitsujiTMO | Sven_vB: freenode questions go in #freenode | 12:08 |
| bekks | Andreas_: It is "Ubuntu", not "Ubunto". | 12:08 |
| Andreas_ | i know, mistype | 12:08 |
| RealNWO | kbuntu is better than ubuntu cuz kde is better than unity | 12:08 |
| bekks | RealNWO: The words are "kubuntu" and "because". | 12:09 |
| universal | RealNWO: you can install kde on ubuntu and gnome/unity on kubuntu | 12:09 |
| Andreas_ | i have only 28 gb available on my windows drive isn't that too little to install ubuntu on? | 12:09 |
| RealNWO | so whats the difference then? | 12:09 |
| bekks | Andreas_: No. | 12:09 |
| bekks | RealNWO: The difference is a different set of preinstalled software. | 12:09 |
| mrp123 | RealNWO - I have 4 different DEs on my installation, just pick and chose depending how i feel that day | 12:10 |
| RealNWO | i installed kde on ubuntu, and it says its kubuntu now | 12:10 |
| RealNWO | so am i using ubuntu or kubuntu? | 12:10 |
| Andreas_ | bekks but after mandatory shit is installed ill end up with just a few GB left over right | 12:10 |
| bekks | RealNWO: You can change the plymouth splashscreen if you like. | 12:10 |
| bekks | Andreas_: No. | 12:10 |
| RealNWO | which is accurate? | 12:10 |
| RealNWO | i installed ubuntu from a CD, then installed KDE, now it says kubuntu | 12:10 |
| Andreas_ | well ill try installing ubuntu on my windows drive then | 12:11 |
| RealNWO | so am i using ubuntu or kbuntu | 12:11 |
| Andreas_ | installer still cant detect my SATA drive even tho its listed to the left on the demo | 12:11 |
| bekks | RealNWO: The preinstalled software sets are called "Ubuntu" and "Kubuntu". That does not mean you are are using "Ubuntu" or "Kubuntu" once you installed KDE on Ubuntu or Unity on Kubuntu. The only thing that matters is which desktop environment you are using. | 12:11 |
| cfhowlett | RealNWO, you installed the kubuntu-desktop NOT kde. KDE would only add the desktop environment. | 12:11 |
| mrp123 | RealNWO - what bekks said ^^ | 12:11 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: a standard install of Ubuntu needs about 5GB | 12:12 |
| hitsujiTMO | !ot | RealNWO please talk semantics in the off topic channel | 12:12 |
| ubottu | RealNWO please talk semantics in the off topic channel: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 12:12 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: that won't leave much for additional packages and stuff though | 12:12 |
| bekks | gordonjcp: That would leave 23GB for stuff. | 12:12 |
| Andreas_ | guess i could slim down my windows for some more gb | 12:12 |
| gordonjcp | bekks: no, I mean if you had 5GB available | 12:12 |
| bekks | gordonjcp: He has 28GB avail. | 12:12 |
| gordonjcp | bekks: in this case, 28GB is *masses* unless you want to get into ridiculous amounts of uncompressed audio | 12:13 |
| Gnik_Llort | wangchung | 12:13 |
| Andreas_ | i checked inside the can and everything is connected to same SATA controller... ubuntu demo can detect the drive, just not the installer | 12:14 |
| Eagleman | Is the apcupsd package broken? i've been trying for 6 hours to get it working, i made doshutdown in /etc/apcupsd but it refuses to run my custom script in anyway when powering down when the batteries are low. Why cant i get it working? | 12:14 |
| Andreas_ | but ill install onto windows drive maybe 28 gb is enough i can slim down my windows too | 12:14 |
| RealNWO | cfhowlett i think yer rite | 12:14 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: 28GB is *masses* | 12:14 |
| Andreas_ | gordonjcp ok | 12:14 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: when you run the installer from the live desktop, what happens? | 12:14 |
| mrp123 | Andreas_ - didn't you say that you had two harddrives? | 12:15 |
| Andreas_ | mrp123 i have 3 hard drives, one SSD, one SATA, one USB 2.0 | 12:15 |
| Andreas_ | its the SATA the installer cant detect. it can detect the other 2 | 12:15 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: unplug everything except the SATA drive | 12:15 |
| Andreas_ | how big should my ubuntu partition be? | 12:16 |
| Andreas_ | installer is asking | 12:16 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: as big as you like | 12:16 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: you're going to need more than about 5GB | 12:16 |
| Andreas_ | gordonjcp no problems will arise if i put ubuntu partition to say 15 gb? | 12:17 |
| bekks | Andreas_: Why dont you just use 20G? | 12:17 |
| Lucid_Lynx | Hi, where do i get the souce code for ´Lucid Lynx` Ubuntu 10.04 ? | 12:17 |
| Andreas_ | ok i put at 20 gb lets see | 12:17 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: you've got 28GB available, use most of it and leave a bit left over for swap | 12:17 |
| bekks | Lucid_Lynx: man apt-get, find "apt-get source". | 12:17 |
| gordonjcp | Andreas_: how much RAM have you got? | 12:17 |
| Lucid_Lynx | thank you for your quick reply.. bekks | 12:18 |
| glixtsj16 | gabmus: i used http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/keyserver.ubuntu.com and that said it looked down, my bad | 12:18 |
| Anddreas | can i connect to this IRC channel from the ubuntu demo? | 12:18 |
| bekfks | Andreas: That still will not change your Windows into Linux. :) | 12:18 |
| bekgks | Andreas: Yes. | 12:18 |

| gabmus | whats going on | 12:19 |
| Andreas_ | RAM = 8 gb | 12:19 |

| sunmoon | hi all.. | 12:22 |
| mrp123 | Andreas_ : If you want to us your SATA drive you'll have to get to the root of the problem of that. Can windows detect and use the sata drive? is so then can the program "GParted" which is installed on the liveCd detect this drive? if not then you have some strange issue with linux and your hardware. | 12:22 |

| Lucid_Lynx | How do i examine which version of Ubuntu 10.04 i am using exactly (`uname´ just says Linux) and i am not getting much smarter by typing ´uname -a`) is it 10.04.1 or is it 10.04.2 or one of the other releases... ? | 12:26 |
| Andreas_ | bekks not worried about any problems all my data is backed up | 12:26 |
| mrp123 | Andreas_: that's alright then you can just play until it's how you want it :) | 12:27 |
| bekks | Lucid_Lynx: lsb_release -a And the specific "version" designates a specific update level, nothing else. It still is 10.04 | 12:27 |

| bekks | Eagleman: Which script did you put where and which permissionsdoes it have? | 12:28 |
| bekks | Lucid_Lynx: For doing so, the "version" of 10.04 is irrelevant at all. | 12:28 |
| bekks | Lucid_Lynx: And what exactly are you trying to do? | 12:29 |
| Eagleman | bekks: >doshutdown in /etc/apcupsd so /etc/apcupsd/doshutdown with 744 rights and the user:group root | 12:29 |
| Lucid_Lynx | counting words..., for now... | 12:29 |
| adnane | hi all | 12:29 |
| bekks | Eagleman: | 12:29 |
| bekks | Weird name for a script. ">doshutdown". | 12:29 |
| bekks | Eagleman: And by default there is no User named "user" and no group named "group". | 12:30 |
| Eagleman | bekks thats what apcupsd needs according to their documentation | 12:30 |
| Eagleman | bekks: > and the user:group root | 12:30 |
| Eagleman | so root:root | 12:30 |
| mrp123 | I've been having a problem with the ubuntu software center's reviews. The reviews of the software will not show and in it's place it says "No network connection, Connect to the internet to see more reviews". I am running 12.04 and this occured after the recent openssl updates. Has anybody else been having this problem? | 12:30 |
| bekks | Eagleman: so you put root:root and not user:group. | 12:30 |
| bekks | Eagleman: And ">doshutdown" is a weird name. /etc/apcupsd/doshutdown looks much more usable. Change the permissions to 755 | 12:31 |
| Eagleman | bekks it is called: /etc/apcupsd/doshutdown | 12:31 |

| Eagleman | hitsujiTMO ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "root@192.168.1.10" and then i pasted it into ESXi and i can login without authentication | 12:37 |
| interweb | bekks, Thanks | 12:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: but where's your id_rsa stored? did you put it in /root/.ssh/ ? | 12:38 |
| Eagleman | hitsujiTMO why does it matter | 12:38 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: because your shutdown script is getting called by root, not by you | 12:39 |
| Eagleman | hitsujiTMO it is stored in: /root//.ssh/id_rsa.pub | 12:40 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: thats the pub key. what about your private key? | 12:40 |
| Eagleman | hitsujiTMO it is stored on the other machine? | 12:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: pubkey goes on the ESXi host. Your private key needs to be in the local /root/.ssh | 12:41 |
| Eagleman | hitsujiTMO well i suppose it is in /root/.ssh aswell, since i can connect | 12:42 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: are you trying from the root user or your own user? | 12:42 |

| folivora | I am cloning 300GB SSD -> 512GB SSD with DD with bytesize 512. How long this takes about? | 12:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: add a line early in the script to see if its at least being called. something like '''echo "called" > /root/got_called''' then try again | 12:45 |
| bekks | folivora: ages. Use a blcksize of 16M. | 12:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | folivora: a long time. a ssd drive writes in blocks of 256kb (usually). so every time its writing each 512b block it has to erase and write 256kb. | 12:50 |
| Eagleman | hitsujiTMO i did not get called | 12:50 |

| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: i also see you defining ESXI but not calling it | 13:19 |
| Eagleman | hitsujiTMO never mind, i created the root_called by executing ./doshutdown myself | 13:20 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: ahh. ok. next lets see if the apccontrol script is getting called on the event. before the case statement add: echo "$1" >> /root/ups_events | 13:22 |
| hitsujiTMO | Eagleman: then try the shut down again. /root/ups_events should start filling up the the called events and give you an idea if apcupsd is working correctly or not | 13:23 |

| Pessimist | gregor3005, maybe the issue is not with the graphics card? | 14:23 |
| gregor3005 | Pessimist: i tested the ram with memtest. no error after many hours. no output of any error in kern.log or dmesg during the freez. it happens since i switched the graphiccard | 14:24 |
| Pessimist | gregor3005, there should be a tool in ubuntu 'System Testing'. Uncheck everybox and leave graphics tests checked | 14:25 |

| glenn9k | Calinou, or.. let me put it this way.. if I look at ps -x, it seems to be launched via optirun, as it should.. | 16:41 |

| Calinou | glebihan, which GPU? which program | 16:49 |
| Calinou | oh, 325M | 16:49 |
| Calinou | so, something not fast | 16:49 |

| glenn9k | hitsujiTMO, http://pastebin.com/X6htcpBW | 16:53 |
| glenn9k | hitsujiTMO, So yes, the FPS increases drastically with optirun... | 16:53 |
| hitsujiTMO | glenn9k: seems the 325 aint that powerful then. It's hard to tell if there's a problem or not. You're running an alpha game thay | 16:54 |
| glenn9k | hitsujiTMO, and when I did "ps -x | grep team" yesterday whn running the game, all steam rows that included rust was prefixed with optirun.. | 16:55 |
| glenn9k | hitsujiTMO, maybe so.. crap. | 16:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | that hasn't released the minimum targeted gpu | 16:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | glenn9k: what resolution? | 16:55 |
| glenn9k | hitsujiTMO, maybe I should try to install windows to test it out to see if it's the linux version of the game that isn't optimized? | 16:55 |

| glenn9k | hitsujiTMO, will do. | 16:57 |
| glenn9k | hitsujiTMO, in general, does games on linux perform worse than on windows? | 16:57 |
| hitsujiTMO | glenn9k: no, unless you're running steamos (its also beta). | 16:57 |

| HL521 | Does any System76 reps drop in here occasionally? | 17:11 |
| TJ- | kohu: Unity is bad at coping with multi-head configurations, and multiple X-screens, and is sometimes painful to use with HD+ monitors, and can sometimes mess up application menus when trying to render them to the top-bar (e.g. Eclipse) | 17:11 |
| kohu | TJ-: And which desktop environment would you say is more stable in any case? | 17:12 |

| alexa22222 | I'm using 13.10. I have 2GB swap partition, but none swap memory (when typing free -m, only zeros show up). How do I fix it? | 17:30 |
| TYDIRocks | Is installing Ubuntu to an extrenal HDD impossible? I've tried 3 times now and every time I get a different error, it's beginning to really frusturate me. | 17:30 |
| brutha37 | hi | 17:30 |
| hitsujiTMO | !details | TYDIRocks yes it's possible. but need more info on the problem before anyone can advise on what to do | 17:32 |
| ubottu | TYDIRocks yes it's possible. but need more info on the problem before anyone can advise on what to do: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 17:32 |
| === Wheelman is now known as hassen | ||
| TJ- | alexa22222: Maybe there is no swap file-system in the partition, or there is no entry to enable it in /etc/fstab and/or /etc/crypttab | 17:32 |
| alexa22222 | there's swap file system | 17:33 |
| alexa22222 | how to enable it? | 17:33 |
| TJ- | alexa22222: Is it encrypted? | 17:33 |
| hitsujiTMO | alexa22222: can you pastebin output of: free -m and: lsblk and pastebin the contents of: /etc/fstab | 17:33 |

| TYDIRocks | hitsujiTMO, ubottu, Alright. I installed the live CD with 13.10. Eveything there is good. Then I made 3 partitions on my 500 GB External HDD within the installer. 500 MB for /boot, 300 GB for /, and 8192 for swap. The installation installs successfully (supposedly). I shut down, remove the live cd. I boot from USB-HDD in the menu. I forget what the first error I received was because it was a week ago, but the most recent one come | 17:35 |
| TYDIRocks | s up with "error: no such partition" then goes into grub rescue. | 17:35 |

| hitsujiTMO | alexa22222: your swap is commented out in your fstab | 17:36 |
| TJ- | TYDIRocks: I'd guess that you didn't customise the install location of the GRUB boot-loader at install-time, so that it would write it to the external drive, not the boot-drive as it does by default | 17:36 |
| alexa22222 | should I uncomment it? | 17:36 |
| TYDIRocks | hitsujiTMO, ubottu, I used some repair tool on the first installation that gave me this: paste.ubuntu.com/6699109 but that didn't help | 17:36 |
| TYDIRocks | TJ, if you're talking about the drop-down menu then yes I did change it to the external | 17:37 |
| TJ- | hitsujiTMO: alexa22222: Swap isn't commented out - it's via crypttab. | 17:37 |
| hitsujiTMO | alexa22222: wait. you've also got a cryptswap: pastebin /etc/crypttab | 17:37 |
| siwica | kohu: I tried to install the driver manually but get the following errors, that I am not able to resolve: http://pastebin.com/0MeQH7cG | 17:37 |

| alexa22222 | TJ, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6733754/ | 17:39 |
| TJ- | TYDIRocks: OK ... is GRUB referencing a file-system it can't find... which suggests it can't find the boot files... which implies they weren't installed to the correct drive. | 17:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | TYDIRocks: are you on a live cd now? | 17:39 |
| TYDIRocks | hitsujiTMO, no I am currently on Windows 7 | 17:40 |
| TYDIRocks | hitsujiTMO, I can boot up in the Live CD now if you would look | 17:40 |
| TYDIRocks | hitsujiTMO, like* | 17:40 |
| hitsujiTMO | TYDIRocks: can you boot a live cd and come back to us. We can have a look at what the installer has done | 17:40 |
| TJ- | alexa22222: You don't have a /dev/sdb | 17:40 |
| TYDIRocks | hitsujiTMO, will do, thank you. Be back in about 10 minutes. | 17:40 |
| alexa22222 | TJ, should I have sdb? | 17:41 |
| hitsujiTMO | alexa22222: he means your crypttab is set up to load /dev/sdb6 instead of /dev/sda6 | 17:42 |
| TJ- | alexa22222: I think when you installed there was another drive attached. I think you only need to edit "/etc/crypttab" to change "/dev/sdb6" to "/dev/sda6" but *before* you do that, lets confirm my theory. Show us the output of "sudo blkid /dev/sda6" | 17:42 |
| alexa22222 | /dev/sda6: UUID="42e7a367-7913-47f1-89e3-e187ff9fb414" TYPE="swap" | 17:43 |
| alexa22222 | that's the output | 17:43 |
| hitsujiTMO | alexa22222: did you manually create a crypted swap after the install? | 17:43 |
| alexa22222 | no | 17:44 |
| TJ- | alexa22222: OK, that looks good. I suggest you edit "/etc/crypttab" and replace "/dev/sdb6" with this: "UUID=42e7a367-7913-47f1-89e3-e187ff9fb414" | 17:44 |
| TJ- | alexa22222: That way, whatever drive letter is assigned the system will find the correct partition | 17:45 |
| alexa22222 | ok | 17:45 |

| AndreasH_ | Hallo. Does anyone know a way to find out the kernel's current *in-memory* idea of the partition table of /dev/sda? Context: in a moment of inspiration, I've just dd'ed over the first few hundred MB of my hard drive, killing the partition table and my system on /dev/sda1. But the system's still up for the moment, with most system tools still usable. I have backups of my /home on /dev/sda2, but restoring them will be slow. If I | 17:48 |
| AndreasH_ | could get the partition offsets and resurrect /dev/sda2, I'd save time (and feel smug). | 17:48 |
| siwica | hitsujiTMO: yes, thats what it does | 17:48 |
| hitsujiTMO | TYDIRocks: open the terminal: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit | 17:48 |
| alexa22222 | going to restart | 17:49 |
| AndreasH_ | I've tried asking Google, but all I find are a million results on using fdisk (which of course doesn't work because my on-disk partition table is trashed). | 17:49 |

| eer | I am on 64 bit Ubuntu. Is my wine then WIndows 64 bit automatically? | 19:46 |

| ActionParsnip | Theseb: 32bit will be fine :-) | 19:46 |

| susan | hitsujiTMO:k. i'll let you know | 20:16 |
| yacc_ | vanishing, the important thing is that I feel really unhappy about not knowing how to migrate the system. Just NOW it's not a big issue, because the install was a test install anyway, and the "semi-final" (as will do for the next months) SSD will be freshly installed into. | 20:16 |

| yacc_ | vanishing, but migration is necessary for a laptop user, it's not the desktop world anymore where discs somehow get added without ever really removing the old stuff. | 20:17 |

| zack_ | it tryed to run but the package couldent be installed for some reason | 20:32 |
| eer | ActionParsnip, I gave up on the app | 20:32 |
| saskslayer | I mean me O.o | 20:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Eer: but did you check the appdb? | 20:32 |
| eer | ActionParsnip, that is why I downloaded Firefox 26 for wine. I want to try to play the online version | 20:32 |
| bekks | saskslayer: you need to know c or c++ and a lot of kernel development for porting a driver. | 20:33 |
| eer | ActionParsnip, yes. Doesn't work. It is not up to date | 20:33 |

| Turingi | in particular, can I configure bonding between a NIC (like eth1) and an alias of that (like eth1:1) ? | 20:36 |

| saskslayer | So, guys, i get an horrible lag using love2d (love2d.org) It lags less with no vsync, but still | 20:37 |
| gmachine_24 | jeffry: you mean from the repository list? | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | jeffry: you can delete the .list in /etc/apt/sources.list.d to remove the source | 20:37 |
| jeffry | yeah cuase i keep getting an error with http://www.sourceslist.eu/repo/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-amd64/Packages | 20:37 |
| gmachine_24 | jeffry: ActionParsnip said it best | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | saskslayer: tried the love2d PPA? | 20:38 |
| Aula | ActionParsnip I tried installing an older version via two packages from the ubuntu packages website but to no avail. | 20:38 |
| rcw2 | ActionParsnip, cool, one point for duckduckgo | 20:38 |
| Aula | ActionParsnip right now I'm back to the latest version of xserver-common and xserver-xorg-core 1.14.5-1 I have an AMD card | 20:38 |
| saskslayer | Im using the PPA | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Rcw2: its one reason I use it. | 20:38 |
| saskslayer | Should i use the deb package instead ? | 20:38 |
| Turingi | ActionParsnip, bekks: this is what I'm trying to do: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6734707/ (I have a static gateway setup, but sometimes that gateway is not available, so I also want eth1 to use dhcp as a backup) | 20:38 |
| rcw2 | ActionParsnip, im still trying to determine how its search compares to google | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | saskslayer: then you may need to set an xorg.conf file up to accommodate your GPU and set better settings | 20:39 |
| saskslayer | Oh | 20:39 |
| saskslayer | Will google that | 20:39 |

| rcw2 | using that | 20:40 |
| rcw2 | and is there a kubuntu equivilent to this? | 20:40 |

| gmachine_24 | bencc, did you back up your computer? | 20:42 |
| saskslayer | ActionParsnip, i saw that my GPU default clock is 200 Mhz and remember that when i was playing with Xvidtune it was about 30~60 Mhz | 20:42 |
| gmachine_24 | :-) | 20:42 |
| Aula | I booted into recovery mode and dropped to console. I ran 'startx' and it just gives me a black screen | 20:42 |
| bencc | gmachine_24: no | 20:42 |
| bencc | gmachine_24: is there undelete/recover of files? | 20:42 |
| bekks | Aula: you should not use startx but start lightdm or the dm of your choice. | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Rcw2: !ppa kde | 20:43 |
| Aula | I've done both | 20:43 |
| Turingi | ActionParsnip, bekks: is that a completely wrong way to go about solving the problem? i.e. on unavailable gateway fail over to an alias set up for dhcp? | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | eer: doesnt work here but I'm using Trusty so not a very good test | 20:43 |
| rcw2 | ActionParsnip, http://dontbubble.us -- -- my question is more about the way they crawl the net, i already knew about the filtering/privacy | 20:44 |
| bekks | Turingi: Thats the complete wrong way for whatever problem. :) | 20:44 |
| Turingi | bekks: what can you suggest? | 20:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Rcw2: thats how it compares, you dont get filtered results. | 20:44 |
| bekks | Turingi: If the gateway fails, dhcpo is irrelevant, since the same gateway is still faulted when using dhcp. | 20:44 |
| eer | ActionParsnip, OK thx anyway | 20:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | Turingi: it could help if you describe what the problem is that you're trying to solve in the first place | 20:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Rcw2: you can search google from ddg with: !g thing | 20:45 |
| Turingi | bekks: there is another low-power box on the network with dhcp, but I would rather not use that unless the static gateway is down | 20:45 |
| bekks | Turingi: Redesign your infrastructure, basically. | 20:45 |
| TrubbleWithUbunt | guys I need your help | 20:45 |
| gmachine_24 | bencc there are recovery tools but I am not famliiar with them | 20:45 |
| rcw2 | ActionParsnip, but do you know if it crawls as many sites and crawls as often as google | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | TrubbleWithUbunt: ask away | 20:45 |
| Turingi | bekks: not possible to redo the infrastructure | 20:45 |
| bekks | Turingi: And the dhcp server uses which gateway...? | 20:45 |
| rcw2 | and i hope they consider purchasing ddg.com domain | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Rcw2: no idea. I use both | 20:45 |
| Turingi | bekks: that can change :p | 20:45 |

| melio | io_______: are you trying to get yours to work? | 21:11 |
| melio | what kind of adaptor | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: yes absolutely | 21:11 |
| melio | I changed mine from a crappy one i got at bestbuy | 21:11 |
| io_______ | melio: same hardware in Windows does work | 21:11 |
| io_______ | also Android can connect | 21:11 |
| io_______ | 12.04 and 13.10 fail | 21:11 |
| io_______ | i can do file sharing but audio sink is not working | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: connect for what? | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Ahhh | 21:12 |
| melio | io_______: do you konw the make of your usb bluetooth | 21:12 |
| io_______ | I ve spent quite some time on this one issue but nothing good is coming out | 21:12 |
| io_______ | melio: not really | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: so you want to stream audio from phone to the pc? Is that it? | 21:13 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: that works (from phone Android) | 21:13 |
| saskslayer | ActionParsnip | 21:13 |
| io_______ | from pc does not work | 21:13 |
| MrKeuner | ActionParsnip, should I be installing an +mac iso or a regular one | 21:13 |
| saskslayer | I cant install mesa-utils | 21:13 |
| rcw2 | ActionParsnip, sure someone is already parked there, but do you think they would really ask too much? | 21:13 |
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: I'm not seeing that. First & foremost... free -m doesn't tell me units... so the output is confusing. However, looking at just "free" w/out the -m, it looks like it's what... 610K swap used? And 203K free mem? | 21:13 |
| rcw2 | some small company like that | 21:14 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: so streaming from pc to phone doesnt work? | 21:14 |
| RandomStrayCat | apb1963: use top | 21:14 |
| melio | I had to add a line to a file | 21:14 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: is it for a mac? | 21:14 |
| apb1963 | bekks: Same comment as I just made to hitsujiTMO | 21:14 |
| melio | and it seemed to help | 21:14 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: it is always frm main device to BT receiver | 21:14 |
| hitsujiTMO | apb1963: the -m = show in megabytes | 21:14 |
| Aula | hitsujiTMO http://paste.ubuntu.com/6734843/ | 21:14 |
| melio | io_______: is it a usb adaptor? | 21:14 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: what is the reciever device? | 21:14 |
| RandomStrayCat | or free -mh | 21:15 |
| io_______ | melio: ActionParsnip it is a noname BT receiver | 21:15 |
| saskslayer | anyone ? | 21:15 |
| melio | io_______: what's it in lsusb | 21:15 |
| l9 | why dosent any network monitor tools give me a bandwidth stat on eth0 just lo | 21:15 |
| === gerritjan is now known as fggff | ||
| l9 | ? | 21:15 |
| === jiffe98 is now known as jiffe | ||
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: so then it's 600M swap used, and only 200M free mem | 21:15 |
| hitsujiTMO | apb1963: without -m is in kilobytes. a simple look at man free will explain the output | 21:15 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: so you cant stream bluetooth audio from ubuntu to the reciever? | 21:15 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: correct | 21:15 |
| === saskslayer is now known as CanucoZumbykkk | ||
| io_______ | tried Blueman as well as stock Bluez/Gnome Bluetooth | 21:16 |
| bekks | apb1963: "Free" states 910xxx and "Swap used" states 6xxxxx - which is smaller? :) | 21:16 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: 12.04 and 13.10 | 21:16 |
| hitsujiTMO | apb1963: you look at the +/- buffers/cache. as this is without the buffered filesystem usage | 21:16 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: if you look in output devices after you pair, can you see the device as an output device? | 21:16 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: positive | 21:16 |
| CanucoZumbykkk | Guys, is there any problem with mesa-utils | 21:17 |
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: I don't understand what you're saying | 21:17 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: when I try to audio sink it connects and desconnect immediatly | 21:17 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: is the device muted in sound settings and/or alsamixer in command line? | 21:17 |
| apb1963 | bekks: so you're looking at the +/- buffers cache to get the 910 | 21:17 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: it does not appear on the mixer as I cannot connect | 21:18 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: I can see the device and add it to the devices list but can t connect to it | 21:19 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: press F6 in alsamixer, is the bluetooth audio there? | 21:19 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: no | 21:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | apb1963: the first line of the free output gives used memory, but also includes buffers and caches releated to filesystem access. (the kernel caches files you read from the hdd, in case you want to reread them again, such as the chrome binary, etc) these caches you will be dumped for any apps that need them memory. The second line show the memory usage wihtout the buffers/cache. this is what you're interested in when determining free/used m | 21:20 |
| hitsujiTMO | emory | 21:20 |
| Dramors | Hello, I have a question. You know how in the default .profile it includes $HOME/bin in the PATH? If I wanted to install stuff in there, would it recognize binaries in subdirs? For example if I had ~/bin/somedir/some-executable, could I run it with some-executable in the terminal? | 21:20 |
| apb1963 | bekks: -/+ bu | 21:20 |
| MrKeuner | ActionParsnip, I'd like to install ubuntu on a pc box but will use it in a mac, so yes | 21:20 |
| kaka | hello | 21:20 |
| ActionParsnip | io_______: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh --upload | 21:20 |
| kaka | I am having trouble making an alias for "clear", so that typing "c" inserts "clear". I typed into my terminal "alias c=clear" and it worked as expected on the terminal i had open, but did not continue to perform the same functionality later when i switched to a new terminal tab. thanks | 21:21 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: then yes. If it doesnt install then use the usual desktop ISO as Macs now use generic CPUs. | 21:21 |
| Dramors | kaka add it to your .bash_aliases then type . .bash_aliases | 21:21 |
| io_______ | ActionParsnip: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=4afc3858692b956136d92f2baf3e60bf06186622 | 21:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaka: add the line in ~/.bashrc | 21:22 |
| bekks | apb1963: So you still have more free ram than used swap. | 21:22 |
| Dramors | Don't add it in .bashrc, no reason to dirty that file up with aliases | 21:22 |
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: OK, that's more clear. But when you say caches will be dumped... do you mean swapped out, or do you mean... re-used without saving? | 21:22 |
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: w/out saving to swap. | 21:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Dramors: why, it already has lots in there by default. | 21:22 |
| Oog | when sudo is configured to use mail_always where does it get the smtp settings? | 21:23 |
| Dramors | Question: You know how in the default .profile it includes $HOME/bin in the PATH? If I wanted to install stuff in there, would it recognize binaries in subdirs? For example if I had ~/bin/somedir/some-executable, could I run it with some-executable in the terminal? | 21:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | apb1963: as in gotten rid of. they're not actually needed. they're just used to speed up hdd access | 21:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Dramors: so its already 'dirty' | 21:23 |
| Dramors | Well, no reason to dirty it further? | 21:23 |
| Dramors | Besides, if you keep your aliases in a separate file it's easier to go through them | 21:23 |
| kaka | Dramors, where should I put it, then, to make it work? | 21:23 |
| Dramors | just make a .bash_aliases file | 21:23 |
| Dramors | in your home dir | 21:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Dramors: if you add more aliases it doesnt make it any beter or worse and is a common file for users to add their own aliases | 21:24 |
| Dramors | .bash_aliases is just as common :) | 21:24 |
| io_______ | i do my aliases there as well | 21:24 |
| io_______ | bashrc | 21:24 |
| Dramors | Anyway, any idea if adding subdirs to the ~/bin will add the binaries in them to my path? | 21:25 |
| kaka | io_______ so the terminal commands dont work for you? | 21:25 |
| Dramors | Since that dir is already loaded in .profile | 21:25 |
| l9 | all my network monitors shows eth0 as 0.0 up 0.0 down ifconfig tells me there has been no trafic on eth0 what so ever... is this normal??? | 21:25 |
| l9 | my computer only have eth0 and lo | 21:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Dramors: with the subdirs in $PATH i'm not sure about subdirs. All i can suggest is make a subfolder and test | 21:25 |
| io_______ | kaka: what? i was just saying that i also use that file | 21:25 |
| Gyurikka | Can you help me creating an installable live media from a running system with all my settings? | 21:25 |
| Dramors | Eh, might as well | 21:25 |
| hitsujiTMO | Dramors: sub dirs dot get added. just that dir | 21:26 |
| Dramors | hitsujiTMO: I see, thanks | 21:26 |
| kaka | io_______ oh i see. so, do you have any idea why alias c=clear didn't work, then? | 21:26 |
| io_______ | nop | 21:26 |
| Chuck_Norris | cya all, cya ActionParsnip, Euclidis :) | 21:26 |
| Dramors | kaka if you added it to a file, it needs to be syntaxed as alias c='clear' I think | 21:27 |

| Danielc1234 | rww that is the thing, I'm not very good at IT, so I was hoping to find a doc that gave steps. | 22:52 |

| Calinou | Danielc1234, you should update to 7 too | 22:59 |

| Danielc1234 | Calinou would you happen to know what my issue is? I went over to debian, but dead. | 23:02 |
| Calinou | it has less users, be patient | 23:03 |
| Calinou | Danielc1234, there should be OpenJDK installed by default | 23:03 |

| contrapunctus | Hi, I was trying to install Ubuntu on a notebook, and was setting up partitions with gparted. I needed to delete the last one out of four primary partitions to make an extended partition, and make an ntfs (data), ext4 (root) and swap partition. However, gparted gave an error when it came to the ex4, saying that '/dev/sda6 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!'. This is from the liveboot. Please he | 23:17 |
| MonkeyDust | !purekde | Euclidis | 23:17 |
| ubottu | Euclidis: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde » | 23:17 |
| Euclidis | MonkeyDust: Good.. | 23:18 |
| Euclidis | Who is managing 'ubottu' ? | 23:19 |

| dudey1 | works best of all the programs I've found | 23:22 |
| daftykins | Anton__: you need to install VPN handlers in order for there to be something clickable in network manager's VPN tab | 23:23 |
| hitsujiTMO | mojtaba: you know catting mp3s won't make valid mp3s right? | 23:23 |
| Noiro | I'm trying to play the DVD through VLC and it's not doing it, no error or anything, it shows the name for less than a second and quits | 23:23 |

| Noiro | MonkeyDust: Xine gets a few seconds in and errors out saying I don't have the rights. | 23:24 |
| hitsujiTMO | mojtaba: use avconv | 23:24 |
| MonkeyDust | Noiro maybe the DVD is protected or so, does that make sense | 23:24 |
| sophocles | anyone with help with apache config | 23:25 |
| Noiro | arn't most DVD's protected? | 23:25 |
| sophocles | namely even though i 777 my upload folders on wordpress | 23:25 |
| MonkeyDust | Euclidis sophocles ... smart people here | 23:25 |
| sophocles | i can't get files in and out from the firefox | 23:25 |
| contrapunctus | lol MonkeyDust | 23:25 |

| contrapunctus | daftykins: http://tinypic.com/r/2zziyyt/5 | 23:25 |
| mojtaba | hitsujiTMO: I have avconv installed already | 23:26 |
| sophocles | i figure it has to do with apache config but not sure what | 23:26 |
| hitsujiTMO | mojtaba: avconv -i "concat:1.mp3|2.mp3|3.mp3" joined.mp3 should work | 23:27 |
| hitsujiTMO | mojtaba: the guys in #bash should be able to help you write a script that will automate the process | 23:28 |
| mojtaba | hitsujiTMO: The problem is that, I want to combine them based on their first three digit number of the files, meaning 001* all together, 002* together, ... | 23:28 |
| hitsujiTMO | mojtaba: yes. #bash would be the best place to get help on that. its a dedicated channel to that sort of thing | 23:28 |

| daftykins | contrapunctus: hmm, do you really need so many NTFS partitions? :) | 23:29 |
| === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler | ||
| mojtaba | hitsujiTMO: Thanks | 23:29 |
| contrapunctus | daftykins: It was a Windows box before this, and they all have data which needs to be recovered, so...basically yeah :( | 23:29 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: looks to me as though the user data is only on sda3? | 23:30 |
| dudey1 | Anton: What type of VPN are U trying to load on2 U'r ubuntu? OpenVPN? | 23:30 |
| contrapunctus | daftykins: Windows magically managed to blast its own self out of the water, though, it seems. Re: sda3 I don't even know anymore :| | 23:30 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: well you see how it's got "used: 38.58GB" beside it? | 23:31 |

| pr0t | I want to get Ubuntu installed on my HP chromebook 14, is http://chromeos-cr48.blogspot.com/ the article posted on october 15th still the instructions that should be followed? | 23:31 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: if the Windows install is dead, do you really need to install to the end of the drive? | 23:31 |
| Anton__ | dudey1: yes, OpenVPN. But my problem is that I have an internet connection and can browse the web but my network manager doesn't detect any internet devices and any VPN that I add gets greyed out | 23:32 |
| contrapunctus | daftykins: True, but either gparted or ground disk usage is being inconsistent with the other; for neither seem to reflect the other :s | 23:32 |
| dudey1 | sudo apt-get install openvpn bridge-utils network-manager-openvpn-gnome | 23:33 |
| contrapunctus | daftykins: I can't install on sda3 (recovery data, if not a false alarm), and there's no space before that :s | 23:33 |
| dudey1 | try that Anton, I put OpenVPN on my system all the time.. | 23:33 |
| daftykins | pr0t: contrapunctus but the Windows install on sda1 is broken? | 23:33 |
| daftykins | oops double highlight, sorry pr0t | 23:33 |
| dudey1 | after U type that in, you should have a openvpn option when U goto "add vpn" | 23:34 |
| pr0t | np | 23:34 |
| contrapunctus | daftykins: I believe so, the computer is failing to boot Windows. | 23:34 |
| dudey1 | anton: from what I understand, U need the bridge utilities, openvpn program, and the gnome openvpn plugin to get the option | 23:34 |
| contrapunctus | daftykins: What's stopping gparted, though? o.o | 23:35 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: hrmm, so what's the story with this laptop? are you helping fix it? wouldn't it be best to recover their data? | 23:35 |
| dudey1 | after that, U just enter your credentials and vpn will work almost immediately.. I like private internet access, they give U 5 clients you can hook up and you can torrent with them for 40 some dollars a year | 23:36 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: well it's a pretty messy partition setup so i'm asking all these seemingly unrelated questions to see if maybe there isn't a better way for you to go about what you're doing :) | 23:36 |
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: I'm still having a hard time with this. top reports: | 23:36 |
| apb1963 | mem=$(free | awk '/Mem:/ {print $4}') | 23:36 |

| Anton__ | dudey1: my nm-applet just randomly disappeared, do you know how to enable it again? | 23:37 |
| contrapunctus | daftykins: Yeah, fixing it for someone, and I need to get it into a bootable state first - Windows or Linux, whatever first... | 23:37 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: you don't have any external hard disks you can recover the data onto then? why do you need a working install? | 23:38 |
| dudey1 | anton: did it disappear after U entered the command? | 23:39 |
| === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off | ||
| contrapunctus | daftykins: Don't have any external drives around. :s And it's required for it's owner's work :) | 23:39 |
| k1l_ | !away | dziegler_off | 23:39 |
| ubottu | dziegler_off: Please do not use noisy away messages and nicks in Ubuntu channels. It is annoying and unnecessary. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 23:39 |
| dudey1 | I'd say if it disappeared after U entered that command, try restarting the system.. | 23:40 |
| Anton__ | dudey1: i think it disappeared after I restarted my network | 23:41 |
| Cyanide133 | need help trying to automount a USB HDD on boot, when i edit the fstab using (/dev/sdb1 /mnt/ext auto auto,user,rw,exec 0 0) it just hangs at boot until i skip it. I am able to mount it in terminal after boot though | 23:41 |
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: bekks: top reports: "Swap: 8388604k total, 321656k used, 8066948k free, 580360k cached" but it also reports that 1 process has 1.1G swapped out, plus a total of perhaps 3G or more in other processes swapped out. So, the numbers don't add up. Very confusing. | 23:41 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: ok, can you use paste.ubuntu.com to paste the output of "mount" in a terminal please? | 23:42 |
| daftykins | contrapunctus: also brb i'm just making a drink | 23:42 |

| dudey1 | I never restart the network cause it never seems to work, I just restart the entire system.. | 23:49 |
| k1l_ | fizyplankton: yes, but the partitions will stay at the old smaller sizes. you need to change that manually afterwards | 23:49 |
| daftykins | fizyplankton: yes but it'll likely then be smaller, if it was from a new enough version of Windows you might then be able to (in Windows) resize the partition | 23:49 |

| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: yeah, trying to do that now... can't find the right options to get the equivalent of "Op" from the command line. | 23:51 |
| daftykins | fizyplankton: i'm not familiar with 'g4l' | 23:52 |
| apb1963 | hitsujiTMO: I'll just do a screenshot | 23:52 |

| apb1963 | mrpizzaface: huh? | 23:52 |
| fizyplankton | daftykins: okay. i suppose i can just use gparted. ive done that many times | 23:52 |
| dudey1 | anyone here have experience installing an OpenFire server on their desktop? | 23:52 |
| mrpizzaface | apb1963: to get the equlivent of"OP" from the command line is $ | 23:53 |
| k1l_ | !sudo | apb1963 in case you mean that | 23:53 |
| ubottu | apb1963 in case you mean that: 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).

| apb1963 | mrpizzaface: can you be more specific with an example please? | 23:54 |
| k1l_ | apb1963: then please explain what you mean with "op on command line" | 23:54 |
| apb1963 | k1l_: First, run top. Then press O, then p. | 23:54 |
| mrpizzaface | apb1963: same as K1l_ please explain more of what you are tring to do | 23:54 |
| apb1963 | mrpizzaface: see above | 23:55 |

| ubottu | catalase_ here's why: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit.
