[00:02] <Jordan_U> humbolt1: fdisk also doesn't support GPT, so is becoming obsolete in other ways.
[00:02] <humbolt1> Jordan_U: I know. But on SSDs, I hardly ever hit the 2TB boundry ;-)
[00:03] <Jordan_U> humbolt1: Today :)
[00:03] <humbolt1> Today. And for the next two years I guess.
[00:04] <hitsujiTMO> there's gdisk for gpt which does map to 2048 boundary
[00:11] <fartface> When I install CSF, how do I know when it's safe to disable testing mode?
[00:11] <fartface> If I've installed it on a VPS, and I can still connect using all of the services properly, am I good to go?
[00:26] <wallzero> Greetings. Is it possible to lock the window size to the Xen Dom0 resolution in Linux using SDL?
[00:26] <ikonia> I'd like to know too
[00:26] <ikonia> oooh good question
[00:32] <Guest63682> hello world. My first IRC post
[00:32] <gordonjcp> Guest63682: hello
[00:33] <Guest63682> I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I need a way to install apps on my ubuntu-emulator
[00:33] <ikonia> ubuntu emulator ?
[00:33] <ikonia> what is this
[00:34] <hitsujiTMO> what is this magic that you speak of?
[00:35] <mikubuntu> installed 12.04 lubuntu (alt cd) on an old hp i'm trying to get ready for my sis, for some reason flash doesn't seem to be installed on chromium, nor can i find a 'restricted extras' package for lubuntu. in the software center, one each shows for kde, ubuntu, and xubuntu, but no lubuntu
[00:35] <googcheng> hi, all! after i install gtk+3.6 in the ubuntu12.04, the UI is broken , so i want to go back , how could i do it ?
[00:35] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:36] <Guest63682> Ubuntu touch emulator
[00:36] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: ok thanks
[00:37] <yahbah> how do i install ubuntu on tablet?
[00:37] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: crap, typo, lubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:38] <Rnuomer> hay
[00:38] <Rnuomer> so uhm
[00:38] <Rnuomer> I just installed ubuntu 12.04
[00:38] <Rnuomer> there's this overscan on my TV
[00:38] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: ahh, wait lubuntu-restricted-extras is just a metapackage for ubuntu-restricted-extras. carry on
[00:39] <Rnuomer> it is connected to my computer via HDMI on the AMD card I'm using
[00:39] <hitsujiTMO> !touch | Guest63682
[00:40] <hitsujiTMO> Rnuomer: overscan should be controlled by the tv settings
[00:41] <Rnuomer> I was able to fix it on my windows (I'm dual booting)
[00:41] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: so it IS ubuntu-restricted?
[00:42] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: yup
[00:42] <hitsujiTMO> Rnuomer: try fixing it on your tv first. "fixing" it on the os means sending out a downsized image of the desktop
[00:42] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: ok, din't do it yet -- i installed flash-plugin separately and is not working very well -- skipping and bumpy
[00:43] <Rnuomer> I see black bars on the sides of my screen
[00:43] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: try disabling hardware acceleration in the player
[00:43] <Rnuomer> originally it was cutting off some parts
[00:44] <Rnuomer> then I connected to wifi and the drivers updated
[00:44] <hitsujiTMO> Rnuomer: what tv do you have?
[00:44] <Rnuomer> now it's the other way around
[00:44] <Rnuomer> an old RCA HDTV
[00:45] <hitsujiTMO> Rnuomer: is there a button  "aspect"  on the remote?
[00:45] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: not sure where to find those controls, as flash is 'supposed' to be 'built-in' to chromium?
[00:46] <Rnuomer> I'd rather not mess around with the TV's settings, as it's used for more than one device
[00:46] <Rnuomer> on the same port, too
[00:46] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: open a youtube video. rightclick on the vid -> settings -> disable hardware acceleration
[00:46] <Rnuomer> I'd prefer to fix this using my PC
[00:47] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: installing restricted extras now. ok, will check with a youtube vid.
[00:47] <hitsujiTMO> Rnuomer: then check the amd control center
[00:48] <hitsujiTMO> Rnuomer: should be under ‘Scaling Options’
[00:49] <Rnuomer> I don't see a scaling options
[00:49] <hitsujiTMO> Rnuomer: is there a Enable GPU scaling ?
[00:49] <Rnuomer> found it~
[00:49] <Rnuomer> thanks <3
[00:50] <Rnuomer> this device is about to die; I might be back later, thanks for the help
[00:51] <yahbah> how do you do the cute liltlle heart?
[00:52] <hitsujiTMO> !ot | yahbah ♥
[00:52] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: youtube vid now seems to play flawlessly, but DOWNTOWN ABBEY still skippy at http://video.pbs.org/video/2365151977/
[00:53] <MickMonkey> Hey #ubuntu
[00:53] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: might be your processor isn't fast enough/optimised to decode the vid :(
[00:54] <MickMonkey> I've got an issue with making a usb from the iso
[00:54] <MickMonkey> Aaaany help would be greaaaat

[00:54] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: :( i don't think my sister watches pbs anyways
[00:55] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: what processor do you have?
[00:55] <MickMonkey> hitsujiTMO: When I use the 12.04.3 x86_64 iso with both unetbootin and rufus it doesn't see that there's a media installed during the server installation
[00:55] <MickMonkey> odd eh?
[00:56] <hitsujiTMO> !md5 | MickMonkey start by verifying the iso

[00:57] <MickMonkey> The acual image loads
[00:57] <MickMonkey> just doesn't install
[00:57] <MickMonkey> and yes it detects the HDD
[00:57] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: defective by design
[00:57] <MickMonkey> and yes i'm using default
[00:57] <hitsujiTMO> mikubuntu: yeah that might struggle with a lot of videos
[00:58] <mikubuntu> hitsujiTMO: beggars cant be choosers ... lol ... she's lucky i pickd this old box up at a garage sale for $10

[02:08] <waly_> guys I wanna know, if it is really worth running stuff through ramdisk
[02:08] <waly_> I am thinking of running minecraft using this setup http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/204930-howto-ramdisk-minecraft-in-ubuntu-1010/
[02:09] <waly_> I have 8gigs of ram
[02:09] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: you wont see any benefits. the kernel caches to ram anyway
[02:09] <waly_> aha thanks
[02:10] <waly_> the thing about minecraft is that it reads and writes to the disk alot
[02:10] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: kernel caches to ram a lot
[02:10] <rcrobot> I'm having issues with flash content in Chrome for Ubuntu. Can anybody help?
[02:10] <waly_> trying a ramdisk in windows environment helped alot
[02:10] <waly_> aha thanks
[02:10] <waly_> so that is pretty cool from ubuntu
[02:10] <wizesolomon> I have a problem, I restarted my ubuntu 13.04  machine and it was restored to originial wallpaper and settings. I then fixed everything to my liking and restarted it again. At this point the backgound was completely blank like a blue blank and all my files and settings are gone. How Can i make everything go back like it was?
[02:10] <somsip> waly_: Then it may make a difference. I have my browser cache in RAM and it is a bit noticeable.
[02:11] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: only reason to do such a thing is to reduce writes to an ssd drive
[02:11] <waly_> I don't have an ssd
[02:11] <waly_> so will I see any difference
[02:12] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: actually minecraft doesnt "write" a lot. by itself it wait for a windows before writing (15 secs by default i think)
[02:12] <heri0n> i just tried install nvidia proprietary drivers… and i get a blank screen.. can't drop into a login shell iwth ctrl alt f1? i tried booting into recovery mode and tried these instructions but they didnt help… http://askubuntu.com/questions/41681/blank-screen-after-installing-nvidia-restricted-driver  does anyone have any ideas
[02:13] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: how many players?
[02:13] <hackrole> first time here.
[02:13] <hackrole> so funny
[02:13] <waly_> I am playing offline
[02:13] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: nope, wont notice anything
[02:13] <waly_> sometimes on a server with friends but I am not hosting the server on my machine
[02:14] <waly_> aha thanks
[02:14] <waly_> so I don't need to go through all that crap. shoo man
[02:14] <waly_> another question. Any good book suggestions for someone getting started with linux or ubuntu in general
[02:14] <Jordan_U> !manual | waly_
[02:15] <waly_> yeah I know that
[02:15] <waly_> I have seen it, but what about this book the linux command line
[02:15] <waly_> http://www.amazon.com/Linux-Command-Line-Complete-Introduction/dp/1593273894/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1389924901&sr=1-1&keywords=linux
[02:15] <hackrole> get start with ubuntu seem not hard
[02:16] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: also that post is based on an early beta. theres been a lot of optimisations to the engine since then
[02:16] <waly_> aha thanks hitsujiTM0
[02:16] <waly_> I started using ubuntu last week, and man I am glad I started using it, already got rid of windows. I am enjoying it alot
[02:17] <waly_> I had a lot of trouble with wifi though
[02:17] <waly_> had to install ubuntu and other variants more than 20 times to finally figure out that my bios needed an update to make it work :D
[02:18] <wizesolomon> I have looked through every forum i can find and have found no answers. I have only been using linux for a short time so I am a noob any help would be greatly appreccieated
[02:18] <hackrole> what's your question? wizesolemon
[02:19] <waly_> whats your question
[02:19] <heri0n> why does installing drivers still fuck up ubuntu..
[02:19] <Beldar> !language | heri0n
[02:19] <IdleOne> heri0n: no swearing please
[02:20] <somsip> wizesolomon: so what's the question?
[02:20] <hitsujiTMO> rcrobot: interesting crash report. the "Not implemented" seems to suggest its trying to run functions that aren't yet developed. try using the adobe flash player until the next update
[02:20] <wizesolomon> somsip: I have a problem, I restarted my ubuntu 13.04  machine and it was restored to originial wallpaper and settings. I then fixed everything to my liking and restarted it again. At this point the backgound was completely blank like a blue blank and all my files and settings are gone. How Can i make everything go back like it was?
[02:21] <Beldar> heri0n, You want to make sure you remove one set to install another, some fail there.
[02:25] <infocon> The WiFi signal to my laptop is weak when using Linux. (It did this with Mint, as well.) It sometimes cuts off. Works just fine with Windows, though. What can I do?
[02:26] <napasdame> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvTEqHYJR68
[02:26] <vanishing> !wifi | infocon
[02:26]  * daipeng 
[02:26] <Beldar> wizesolomon, This is an install right? Did you do any if this fixing in a root terminal or root. The situation you describe should not be happening.
[02:26] <heri0n> Beldar:  the instructions have the removal at the beginning dont they
[02:26] <vanishing> !ot | napasdame
[02:28] <infocon> Thanks.
[02:29] <Beldar> heri0n, What instructions, the multiple option on the askubuntu link. Proprietary drivers unless in the additional drivers are not recommended here.
[02:29] <wizesolomon> Beldar: no it is not an install I have had it for a while. I know it shouldnt be happening could it mean a virus or trojan?
[02:29] <Beldar> wizesolomon, what is it?
[02:30] <Beldar> wizesolomon, An iso on a usb, is it persistent?
[02:30] <wizesolomon> beldar: I am confused. yes its an install of ubuntu 13.04 but i have had it for a while
[02:30] <Bugbear76> how do i disable password complexity requirements?   ubiquity will let me use a 1 character password but once Ubuntu is uinstalled all password must be 8 chars long. how do I add a new user with a 1 character password?
[02:31] <wizesolomon> beldar: it is on my harddrive yes persitent
[02:32] <hackrole_me> hello, I am new to irssi, is there any good tutorial?
[02:32] <Beldar> wizesolomon, Your giving really confusing info, first no install then yes install, a HD has no persistent.
[02:33] <Bugbear76> hackrole_me,  try asking in #irssi
[02:33] <heri0n> hm i was able to start x by enabling the driver with jockey-text first...
[02:33] <heri0n> but cant get it to start form grub
[02:33] <hitsujiTMO> Bugbear76: http://askubuntu.com/questions/113682/how-to-change-disable-password-complexity-test-when-changing-password
[02:33] <Bugbear76> thanks hitsujiTMO
[02:33] <hackrole_me> thanks | Bugbear76
[02:33] <hitsujiTMO> Bugbear76: why do you want to do this tho?
[02:33] <Beldar> wizesolomon, Hard to say what you have done as a new user, you might consider a fresh install and just be sure what you do is correct.
[02:34] <duhamel> hello all. I installed gnome and gdm on ubuntu 13.10, didn't like it and purged it out. I have reinstalled unity, ubuntu desktop and dconf-tools but im still having mouse flickers and many greyed out menus. also can't find information on display under settings. any ideas to fix without a complete reinstall of ubuntu?
[02:34] <wizesolomon> beldar: thanks!
[02:34] <Bugbear76> hitsujiTMO,   i am setting up a lab environment to play around
[02:35] <wizesolomon> beldar: I was thinking that its weird because netflix still works. IDK I can start again i am excited i have learned some basic stuff. stoked to keep on chuggin
[02:36] <Beldar> wizesolomon, I had to reinstall 3 times in the first 6 months, 7 years ago, it is just an option, for me it was a time issue.
[02:37] <wizesolomon> beldar: I have time to figure it out. If it is possinle
[02:38] <Beldar> wizesolomon, I can't help, there are people on here qualified right now who not have touched it so that may be a red flag.
[02:38] <wizesolomon> beldar: true. its crazy because some other unexplainable stuff happened a few weeks ago and i lost some very important files i had used this systems true crypt to encrypt
[02:39] <duhamel> could the greyed out menusbe an issue with metacity?
[02:40] <hitsujiTMO> wizesolomon: might want to check your hdd for defects
[02:40] <wizesolomon> beldar: I lost many litecoins. Do you think it could be the same problem and a re install would fix it? I am afraid to ever use true crypt on ubuntu again
[02:40] <duhamel> could the greyed out menusbe an issue with metacity?
[02:40] <duhamel> sorry, didn't mean to resend that.\
[02:41] <Beldar> wizesolomon, Honestly encrypting is a failure waiting to happen in many ways, I would not bother with that. Truecrypt and make encrypted files I would do that at the most not a whole OS. Ubuntu has encryption already if needed.
[02:41] <Beldar> and=can*
[02:42] <duhamel> hello all. I installed gnome and gdm on ubuntu 13.10, didn't like it and purged it out. I have reinstalled unity, ubuntu desktop and dconf-tools but im still having mouse flickers and many greyed out menus. also can't find information on display under settings. any ideas to fix without a complete reinstall of ubuntu?
[02:43] <wizesolomon> beldar: I did just encrypt a file not all of ubuntu I just used the ubuntu version to do it
[02:43] <Beldar> duhamel, Installed and removed what gnome and how?
[02:44] <hitsujiTMO> wizesolomon: check the smart info on the hdd. what you're experiencing could be the result of random corruption of your data
[02:44] <Beldar> very true
[02:45] <duhamel> gnome 3.10 ppa-purge the next and staging ppa. apt-get remove --purge ubuntu-gnome-desktop gnome shell
[02:46] <wizesolomon> hitsujiTMO: how do i do that? and is there a solution
[02:46] <Beldar> duhamel, Why would you have to reinstall unity, adding the gnome ppa would leave it alone?
[02:47] <gancl>  hi!My disk space is almost 99% used now,which files can I delete to increase space?
[02:47] <duhamel> after i removed gnome i had no dash bar
[02:47] <hitsujiTMO> wizesolomon: open the dash, run disks, then hit ctrl + s
[02:48] <Beldar> duhamel, and running the ppa purge alone should not have done ant damage the purge on the ubuntu-gnome-desktop gnome shell might have, gnome 3 is just "ubuntu-gnome-desktop".
[02:48] <hitsujiTMO> dancl: can you pastebin the output of: df -h
[02:50] <hitsujiTMO> gancl: ^
[02:50] <duhamel> Beldar: when i purged the ppa's terminal told me that it was using a bunch of substitutions for some files.
[02:51] <duhamel> Beldar: i also reinstalled xserver and set nautilus as desktop manager after all the purging and reinstalling of unity.
[02:51] <gancl> hitsujiTMO:http://pastebin.com/1rFdriE2
[02:52] <hitsujiTMO> gancl: start with : sudo apt-get clean
[02:52] <gancl> hitsujiTMO:Have done that
[02:52] <gancl> hitsujiTMO:Also I removed vim
[02:53] <HideMe> What is the benifit to leaving "Windows UEFI mode" enabled in the BIOS with Ubuntu 13?
[02:53] <Beldar> duhamel, Hmm, well depending on how much time you have, you might get this fixed, but it seems you done a series of steps that have messed up the desktop, your choice on using this as a learning step and do a reinstall. Even if you get it fixed I would doubt you learn all the mistakes made.
[02:53] <hitsujiTMO> gancl: in the dash, open: disk usage analyzer                             use that to see whats using your disk space
[02:55] <duhamel> Beldar: I have been working on fixing it for a few days now. The biggest issue is the greyed out menus. this is the only functional issue that i would really like to fix.
[02:56] <s2013> hello how can i add resolution to my display? i did it before i think its like x something
[02:57] <s2013> my ubuntu has 2560x1600 but i need 2560x1440
[02:57] <duhamel> s2013: what do you mean add resolution to your display?
[02:57] <hitsujiTMO> s2013: xranr?
[02:57] <s2013> yea that hitsujiTMO
[02:57] <hitsujiTMO> xrandr even
[02:57] <Beldar> duhamel, All I can say is good luck. ;)
[02:57] <duhamel> xrandr
[02:57] <s2013> duhamel, when i click on display and i want to change resolution under the dropdown 2560x1440 doesnt apear
[02:57] <s2013> yeah xrandr but i forgot how to add it
[02:58] <hitsujiTMO> s2013: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Adding_undetected_resolutions
[02:58] <duhamel> Thanks Beldar. do you think it's more likely to be metacity or nautilus?
[02:58] <s2013> thanks but i dont know the resolution i need for 2560x1440 but hold on
[02:59] <Beldar> duhamel, metacity has nothing to do with unity.
[02:59] <duhamel> is it not the window manager?
[02:59] <Beldar> duhamel, no compiz is
[03:00] <duhamel> oh, of course.
[03:00] <Beldar> duhamel, nor is metacity part of the gnome shell it is mutter
[03:01] <duhamel> so do you think it's more likely a window manager or file manager? not all menu options are greyed out like help and preferences are there but no open save etc.
[03:02] <Beldar> duhamel, I have no idea what it is, honestly you seem to have driven blindly through this. ;)
[03:04] <Beldar> duhamel, We do have highly knowledgeable users here who will help user beyond in my opinion is worth it when the broken user needs to learn some things themselves.
[03:04] <Beldar> users*
[03:06] <duhamel> for the most part i installed gnome thge same as i have before by adding the ppa's and installing the desktop. after i decided to remove i purged the ppa's and instralled desktop as i have before. returned to lightdm and did as reinstall of ubuntu-desktop for good measure but i was left with a broken unity which i have now read is not uncommon in ubuntu 13.10 with gnome 3.10
[03:07] <duhamel> i just want a clean install of ubuntu desktop but it seems like its not possible.
[03:08] <duhamel> i mean without a complete os reinstall
[03:08] <Starcraftmazter> hi
[03:08] <Starcraftmazter> is openssl in ubuntu libssl
[03:08] <Starcraftmazter> and openssl-devel libssl-dev
[03:08] <Starcraftmazter> ?
[03:09] <Beldar> duhamel, Previous success does not mean correct technique, you might consider. For example running a purge on a de is a bad idea.
[03:10] <duhamel> im sure you're right.
[03:11] <blz> Hello, I have an ubuntu server installation and I'd like to install X so that I can run XBMC, __but__ I would like to avoid installing a WM and all the apps included in the ubuntu-desktop package.  How should I proceed?
[03:13] <Beldar> duhamel, One of things I do is always use apt-get, and when it is a desktop I copy paste all the added apps to a text file for an easy remove. Or use the psychocats website meta lists for desktop removal, and never use a ppa for desktops.
[03:14] <somsip> blz: how are you wanting to install xmbc? If you install from the repo, it will pull in all depemdencies. You can dry-run this (I think) to see what it will do before it does it
[03:14] <blz> somsip, will it configure the X server as wel?
[03:15] <somsip> blz: when I installed a non-default WM from a minimal install, it did all of that, yes. So I can't see why it will be different from xmbc
[03:15] <blz> somsip, great =)
[03:15] <somsip> blz: what version of ubuntu?
[03:15] <hdon> hi all :) I'm trying out Jack. i've used pasuspender and got jackd running with alsa backend. is there a jackd test program? the few programs i've tried connect to jackd but no sound comes out of my speaker. am i missing something?
[03:15] <blz> somsip, LTS
[03:16] <blz> somsip, LTS server, specifically
[03:16] <somsip> blz: http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/xbmc so it will pull in x11-utils which will pull in X, which will pull in loads of other stuff.
[03:16] <Beldar> duhamel, I also use this to make a install list on the working OS dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages if you had this you would be able to fix this most likely.
[03:17] <blz> somsip, I was going to pull from ppa:team-xbmc/ppa, but I suppose it's equivalent, no?
[03:17] <somsip> blz: it will not be an up to date version on 12.04 though (or xmbc). And you can 'apt-get -s install xmbc' to do a dry-run
[03:18] <somsip> blz: PPAs aren't supported here so you take your own risk on that. Try the dry run based on what is in the official repo, see what it will pull in, and expect the PPA to be similar(ish)
[03:18] <blz> somsip, what won't be up-to-date?  the xbmc in the canonical repos?
[03:18] <blz> somsip, ok sounds good =)
[03:18] <somsip> blz: yeah - official is 2:11.0 I think my install is on 3.X now...
[03:19] <somsip> *13.X
[03:19] <somsip> blz: Finally, http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Install_XBMC_on_Ubuntu/HOW-TO_3
[03:19] <blz> sosby, yeah I'm all over that page already :D
[03:20] <somsip> blz: k. This does suggest to install xorg too. I would have thought that would get pulled in by x11-utils, but maybe not
[03:21] <duhamel> Beldar: thanks. Im going to mess around if i have success i'll report back.
[03:22] <Beldar> duhamel, Cool, it is all a learning, best if luck. ;)
[03:22] <Beldar> of*
[03:23] <ubuntuaddicted> how come some games i can't alt-tab out of?
[03:23] <Vivekananda> I am trying to locate a file "Mail.php" from the command line. How do I do it ?
[03:23] <Vivekananda> using ubuntu 12.04
[03:23] <somsip> Vivekananda: touch Mail.php
[03:23] <somsip> Vivekananda: sorry - misread
[03:24] <Vivekananda> somsip: locate not create
[03:24] <somsip> Vivekananda: yeah - glasses slipped down my nose... find -name 'Mail.php' .
[03:24] <ubuntuaddicted> when i run dungeon defenders i'd like to alt-tab so i can move the window a little bit but I can't change focus from the game to save my life. any suggestions?
[03:24] <Starcraftmazter> is openssl in ubuntu libssl
[03:24] <Starcraftmazter> is openssl in ubuntu libssl
[03:24] <Starcraftmazter> and openssl-devel libssl-dev
[03:24] <FloodBot1> Starcraftmazter: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:24] <somsip> Starcraftmazter: this is not a real question. What do you really want to know?
[03:25] <duhamel> I just realized that in some windows the close X is on the right.
[03:26] <Starcraftmazter> somsip: the package name in ubuntu, for what is openssl and openssl-dev on rhel/centos/fedora
[03:27] <duhamel> here's a new question could i dual boot ubuntu and fedora and have them share the same /home folder? that should be cool right?
[03:27] <somsip> !find openssl | Starcraftmazter
[03:41] <ubuntuaddicted> how come i can't alt-tab out of dungeon defenders?
[03:47] <siloxid> hi.  I upgraded to ubuntu 13.10 and I don't see the option to change capslock to control anymore. how do I remap?
[03:47] <somsip> siloxid: xmodmap will do that
[03:48] <nogocart> is there a cui command that lets me search what the name of a certain package is installed?
[03:52] <siloxid> somsip: hmm... I used to use that but I lost a good place to put the command after a few ubuntu upgrades.  where is a good place to put the command?
[03:52] <Pilgore> :)
[03:53] <somsip> siloxid: ~/.xinitrc possibly. You'll need to check xev for the keycode, but this works as ~/.Xmodmap http://paste.ubuntu.com/6765717/
[03:57] <ReAzem> Hi! I have been troubleshooting my ldap server for a while now. And I have found something! "getent user REAZEM" returns something, but "getent shadow REAZEM" dosen't! REAZEM is a ldap user. What should I troubleshoot?
[03:58] <ReAzem> I use ldap-account manager. I just enabled the shadow module and it now almost works, I get REAZEM:*: ... when I try to get shadow.
[03:58] <ReAzem> Still no hash!
[04:03] <vacho> how come that crontab does not append to the log file? it overwrites it
[04:03] <somsip> vacho: what is the cronjob command you are using?
[04:04] <vacho> somsip: * * * * * /usr/bin/php -q /home/pan/public_html/cron/route.cron.php > /home/pan/logs/cron_log 2>&1
[04:04] <somsip> vacho: > will overwrite. >> will append
[04:04] <vacho> somsip: which one?? the first > or second >?
[04:05] <somsip> vacho: >> /home/pan/logs/cron_log
[04:05] <vacho> thanks mate.
[04:05] <somsip> vacho: np
[04:06] <siloxid> hmm... can't seem to get it to swap.  it seems like every ubuntu release they try to make it harder and harder to make capslock control O_o
[04:06] <somsip> siloxid: what have you tried?
[04:07] <siloxid> I tried running my old xmodmap command that I used to use, and changing it in unity
[04:07] <siloxid>  xmodmap -e 'clear Lock' -e 'keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L' -e 'add
[04:07] <siloxid>       control = Control_L' &
[04:08] <siloxid> and I put the command from your pasteboard into an .xinitrc
[04:09] <zulgaban> hello
[04:10] <somsip> siloxid: so my paste should be ~/.Xmodmap which will be read by xmodmap if in ~/.xinitrc you 'xmodmap /home/user/.Xmodmap'
[04:10] <somsip> *you have
[04:10] <blzz> Hello, I just installed XBMC on top of ubuntu server.  When I boot the server, I get a CLI login prompt.  If I SSH into the box and run `xinit /usr/bin/xbmc --standalone &`, XBMC starts.  How can I make it so that I no longer need to start XBMC explicitly?  Please note that I attempted to autostart XBMC with an upstart init script, as detailed here:  http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Install_XBMC_for_Linux#Upstart_init_script
[04:11] <somsip> siloxid: so I would suggest just adding the .Xmodmap I suggest, then running xmodmap /home/user/.xmodmap to test it. Then go from there
[04:15] <siloxid> somsip: ok, I got it. thanks.  I mixed my old script with yours and got it working
[04:16] <somsip> siloxid: cool
[04:26] <QPPavilion> hi

[04:28] <QPPavilion> Bashing-om: hi :)
[04:29] <raub> I am trying to learn how to use PPA. Can I just throw a test package in my PPA without worrying about osmeone trying to install it and it blowing up on his face?
[04:31] <Beldar> raub, ASk yourself how would you feel if you were that user?
[04:31] <raub> Beldar: how can I leanr how to use PPA otherwise?
[04:32] <Beldar> raub, we don't support ppa's here. only load known working setups would be my opinion however.
[04:33] <zeeman> HI
[04:33] <zeeman> everybody

[05:14] <goodgocart> hi
[05:14] <goodgocart> is there a way to block all internet traffic if my vpn in openvpn goes down?
[05:14] <igoryonya> I've upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10. My usb ports don't detect usb devices, connected to them. When you connect and disconnect anything to/from usb ports and monitor with lsusb, nothing changes. Every now and then, when I reboot, it suddenly works. Then stops after another reboot again.
[05:15] <raub> igoryonya: dmesg might have some clues
[05:17] <rostam> HI hoq so you run atp-cache-ng
[05:18] <igoryonya> raub, I tried to watch dmesg, while plugging in and unplugging, nothing changes either. I used "sudo watch 'dmesg'", also "sudo tailf /var/log/dmesg"
[05:21] <hdon> hi all :) I'm using Ubuntu 12.04. How can I disable on demand CPU clock speed changes? (for a particular application i'd like to be able to set it to the highest clock speed and leave it for smoother performance)
[05:22] <HideMe> Does "Windows UEFI mode" enabled in the BIOS only matter if you're dual booting OS's?
[05:23] <Beldar> HideMe, YOU remove the windows and now having problems with ubuntu?
[05:24] <HideMe> Beldar Nope. I just wondering.
[05:25] <Beldar> HideMe, The uefi is a manufacturers version, no real static answer.
[05:27] <HideMe> Beldar Well, what I'm getting at is, it will either work, or won't work, regardless if you're dual booting or just running Linux. Right?
[05:29] <Beldar> HideMe, sounds more like a half windows question, I would address it in ##windows, as far as running linux, my last answer is the conundrum.
[05:30] <Beldar> your asking for an overall answer, to a question that has to many variables to answer accurately.
[05:33] <HideMe> Beldar You converse like thr Riddler, anyone ever tell you that?   lol
[05:33] <blackjackel542> somsip: not really because i don't have expect
[05:33] <Beldar> HideMe, No, you have not done the research needed.

[05:34] <FreewheelinFrank> riddle me this; if I am logged in as admin don't I have admin rights?
[05:34] <blackjackel542> looking to write a script that telnets into an ip, executes a command, and exits, but I don't know how to send an exit signal through a script
[05:35] <mrrothhcloud___> Any ruby programmers here what editor do you use I'm Ubuntu to code runny
[05:35] <Beldar> FreewheelinFrank, what is your definition of "logged in as admin"?
[05:36] <FreewheelinFrank> In the GUI.
[05:36] <FreewheelinFrank> Must learn the language i guess
[05:37] <Beldar> FreewheelinFrank, There is the account you make on install it had sudo access.
[05:38] <FreewheelinFrank> Hmm, the long string of random numbers etc?
[05:38] <FreewheelinFrank> yes and what is this confounded 'keychain' i keep getting requests for
[05:38] <Beldar> FreewheelinFrank, not sure what you mean, but you make a password to have sudo access.
[05:39] <FreewheelinFrank> ok thanks ill check into that
[05:39] <zykotick9> FreewheelinFrank: have you enabled autologin?
[05:39] <FreewheelinFrank> its not really working. I set up some other accounts with no passwords and set them as not autologin, but it still goes to them on startp
[05:40] <FreewheelinFrank> i want it at least to start up to a login screen
[05:40] <Exoflame> hi
[05:40] <FreewheelinFrank> yodel
[05:40] <blackjackel542> Is it possible to automate telnet with netcat?
[05:41] <Exoflame> ones sec
[05:42] <Exoflame> so you want to automaticaly telnet into somthing on startup?
[05:43] <Exoflame> hello
[05:43] <siloxid> Beldar: I use emacs to program ruby
[05:43] <blackjackel542> Exoflame: I want to write a script to run every 30 seconds
[05:43] <blackjackel542> it will telnet into an ip, send command "o" then logout
[05:44] <FreewheelinFrank> ruby for what?
[05:44] <atomx> I created a new image on the laptop, using usb-creator-gtk, and on the other computer it says "boot error". How can I check what was wrong ?
[05:44] <siloxid> blackjackel542: cron is good at running every x minutes, not sure about seconds
[05:44] <blackjackel542> siloxid: yes, ill put the script into cron before
[05:44] <blackjackel542> but for right now i need to figure out how to get it to work
[05:46] <Beldar> !cookie | siloxid
[05:47] <Exoflame> ok off topic question is there a way to make it not say * person has loged in and * person has quit
[05:48] <siloxid> Exoflame: yes your irc client should be able to turn it off, or get one that does
[05:48] <Beldar> Exoflame, what irc client are you using, probably in the prefrences.
[05:48] <Exoflame> ok ill look around
[05:50] <Exoflame> thanks
[05:55] <Exoflame> hello?
[05:56] <Beldar> Exoflame, You asked two questions, one had an answer the other has a question asked of you.
[05:57] <Beldar> Ah my mistake you asked the question, so why the hello Exoflame

[06:09] <VEndix>  guys can someone give a direct link to complete squid configuration on ubuntu 12?
[06:10] <Flunder> Actually I got a question.  I tried to installed ubuntu on vm virtualbox using 64 bit iso, but said i didnt have a 64 bit proc, which isnt true.  I'm using it running windows
[06:10] <Flunder> wondering do i need to turn on that option in the bios?
[06:14] <FreewheelinFrank> probably
[06:15] <Name141> Is there an easy way to get the min/close/maxiumize and all that back on the right right side?

[06:18] <Rizal_> anyone here have tried make mail server with virtual system ?
[06:19] <Rizal_> something like this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixCompleteVirtualMailSystemHowto
[06:20] <Rizal_> oh oke maybe not ...
[06:21] <Name141> Hm.. I might go on and install 13.10 since this is a new install and then next install is LTS anyway, isn't it ?
[06:21] <Beldar> Name141, 14.04 is an LTS
[06:22] <Name141> Beldar: Oh.. Ah I'll see how the 13.10 does just for giggles.
[06:22] <Name141> I'm pretty sure it'd have been fixed by now if it wasn't stable.
[06:22] <Beldar> Name141, Don't die laughing. ;)
[06:23] <Name141> Beldar: For some reason my sound only likes to work in Ubuntu, or with ubuntu-desktop installed
[06:23] <Name141> Beldar: No idea why.
[06:23] <Name141> I'm not sure about KDE/Kubuntu

[07:41] <DoverMo> Guest26410, hi guest
[07:42] <igoryonya> how to stop a usb driver and then start it again without rebooting ubuntu?
[07:45] <ezra-s> igoryonya, rmmod removes a module, modprobe loads a module
[07:45] <igoryonya> ezra-s: how do I know, which module is usb?
[07:46] <ezra-s> igoryonya, if you just want to remove your usb drive safely, try umount /mountpoint where /mountpoint is where the usb drive was mounted
[07:46] <Guest26410> hey anyone know how to make the ethernet speed faster
[07:46] <ezra-s> you can see where it is mounted with "mount" command from terminal
[07:46] <gamerx> uhhm?
[07:46] <Guest26410> i know i am the only one in my house using internet and it has gone from a max of 3 gps now to only .2gps
[07:46] <Guest26410> i mean mps
[07:46] <Guest26410> o nvm
[07:46] <Guest26410> now its back
[07:47] <gamerx> it's probably your ISP...
[07:47] <gamerx> Perhaps it's how you're connected to your router?
[07:47] <ezra-s> gps, mps? wth is that?
[07:47] <igoryonya> ezra-s: I don't want to remove usb drive safely, my usb ports don't detect any hardware, connected to them, although there is a power, going through there. I am trying to figure out, how to make the usb ports work again. lsusb doesn't show any changes when you plug or unplug any usb device.
[07:48] <igoryonya> ezra-s: where can I see what modules are there?
[07:48] <Guest26410> gamerx thanks ok
[07:48] <SenseiV183> I got errors installing driver from AMD http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6766491/
[07:48] <Guest26410> it keeps going down
[07:48] <Guest26410> which sucks
[07:48] <ezra-s> igoryonya, when you reboot it works?
[07:48] <Guest26410> like whats with these fluctuations
[07:48] <Giddeon> I have a user named "ventrilo".  I'm trying to run a ventrilo server as the ventrilo user from the root account.  I've tried     su ventrilo -c "/srv/ventsrv/ventrilo_srv -d"    but it doesn't start the server.  It works fine if I start it as root tho.  The ventsrv directory and files inside of it are all owned by the ventrilo user.  What am I missing?
[07:49] <ezra-s> igoryonya, loaded modules show up in "lsmod" command, modules being used show up with lspci -vv
[07:49] <ezra-s> along with the devices that are being used by modules
[07:50] <igoryonya> ezra-s: no, it doesn't work after reboot, it just suddenly stopped working, then, after one reboot it started working again, worked for a few days, and now stopped working again. It works, when I boot to windows.
[07:50] <ezra-s> Giddeon, writing permissions too?
[07:51] <ezra-s> igoryonya, if the same port always works under windows but does not work or just sometimes under linux sounds like a driver issue, which kernel version are you using?
[07:52] <ezra-s> it's strange though I have never had problems with usb drives since a very long time ago when usb was something new
[07:52] <Giddeon> ezra-s: The ventrilo user has write access to the directory and all the files in it.  The ventrilo group does not.
[07:52] <igoryonya> ezra-s:  3.11.0-15-generic
[07:53] <ezra-s> Giddeon, have you checked ventrilo server log when you try to start with with that other user?
[07:53] <ezra-s> Giddeon, which port does ventrilo server use?
[07:54] <Giddeon> exra-s: 3874 I believe
[07:54] <Giddeon> ezra:s: just checked the log and it's empty when I try and start via su
[07:55] <ezra-s> igoryonya, sounds like a very recent kernel to have usb issues. plug the usb drive and check /var/log/syslog
[07:55] <Giddeon> exra-s: Could it have something to do with my ventrilo user.  I created him as a system user.
[07:55] <kongthap> i saw a programming youtube clip, the tutor type something in terminal (OSX) like while: then sleep(1) then tree -a, i like to do something similar to this please tell me what to search for more info ???
[07:55] <ezra-s> Giddeon, ventrilo user has access to write in log directory?
[07:56] <Giddeon> ezra-s: correct
[07:56] <somsip> kongthap: in a terminal type "sleep 1; tree -a'
[07:56] <somsip> !terminal | kongthap
[07:56] <kongthap> somsip, you're right
[07:57] <igoryonya> ezra-s: nothing changed in the log
[07:57] <kongthap> i use "then" i tried to mean i don't remember exact syntax
[07:57] <ezra-s> igoryonya, you tried different usb ports right? another usb drive/stick?
[07:58] <Giddeon> ezra-s: Just figured it out.  It has something to do with the user being a system user.  I had to tack on "-s /bin/sh" to the su command.
[07:58] <ezra-s> Giddeon, nice to know
[07:58] <thom_r> when I hover over the file browser in the dock, it just says files. It used to say home, documents, downloads, etc. How do I make it show those things again?
[07:58] <helmut_> hi
[07:59] <kongthap> somsip, but i want to do the tree command every 1 second and i don't want to make a script file, most of the search result leads me to bash script file
[07:59] <kry> Hallo
[07:59] <somsip> !bash | kongthap (or search for 'endless loop bash')
[08:00] <kry> Somehow the clock on the top right corner of the screen has disappeared, and I can't bring it back
[08:00] <kry> Any idea, what I've done?
[08:00] <aeon-ltd> thom_r: just a guess, but maybe you have to have a window open to get relevant names?
[08:00] <thom_r> nope, good guess though
[08:00] <kry> In the settings, it's greyed out
[08:01] <aeon-ltd> kry: you stopped time!?
[08:01] <kry> Haven't you noticed?
[08:01] <thom_r> kry, that is an applet and it probably got deleted. Open the software center and search for time applet
[08:01] <aeon-ltd> kry: have you tried ending the session by logging out then logging back in?
[08:02] <igoryonya> ezra-s: I tried before without monitoring, they just didn't work, but now tried different usb devices in different ports, while monitoring: "sudo watch 'tail /var/log/syslog'"
[08:02] <igoryonya> ezra-s: still nothing
[08:02] <ezra-s> igoryonya, you are missing usb storage modules for sure
[08:03] <john_rambo>  Which cloud storage service offers the max storage space for free ?
[08:03] <ezra-s> igoryonya, do "lsmod | grep usb" and paste the results
[08:03] <somsip> john_rambo: this channel is for ubuntu support. That's not relevant here
[08:04] <igoryonya> lspci -vv shows that there are usb devices, lspci shows usb root hub and usb ports
[08:05] <ezra-s> igoryonya, "lsmod | grep usb"
[08:05] <somsip> igoryonya: this worked ok before the upgrade to 13.10?
[08:05] <ezra-s> in http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[08:05] <igoryonya> ezra-s: lsmod | grep usb shows nothing
[08:05] <ezra-s> igoryonya, you are missing usb storage modules loaded
[08:06] <igoryonya> somsip, yes
[08:06] <ezra-s> igoryonya, have you blacklisted them?
[08:06] <ezra-s> igoryonya, try doing "modprobe usb_storage"
[08:06] <igoryonya> ezra-s: not intentionally, how do i check it?
[08:06] <ezra-s> try previous command to load usb_storage module see if it works
[08:07] <ezra-s> usbhid hid usb_storage should at least be loaded
[08:07] <igoryonya> ezra-s: after modprobe, I did lsmod, it displayed: "usb_storage            62062  0"
[08:08] <igoryonya> ezra-s: so, it probably loaded usb driver?...
[08:08] <ezra-s> igoryonya, lsmod | grep usb just reported that one?
[08:08] <igoryonya> ezra-s: yes
[08:08] <ezra-s> mmm
[08:09] <ezra-s> do "modprobe usbhid"
[08:09] <ezra-s> and "modprobe hid" in case it does not load automatically
[08:10] <ezra-s> then try to plug a usb stick while checking syslog
[08:10] <ezra-s> igoryonya, is that kernel compiled by you by any chance?
[08:13] <igoryonya> ezra-s: syslog showed the following because of modprobe commands: hidraw: raw HID events driver (C) Jiri Kosina;
[08:13] <igoryonya> usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid;
[08:13] <igoryonya> usbhid: USB HID core driver; but didn't show any records while plugging/unplugging usb devices.
[08:14] <igoryonya> ezra-s: I didn't compile the kernel myself, I am not that advanced yet :)
[08:14] <ezra-s> igoryonya, is that kernel from a ppa? or default kernel for ubuntu?
[08:15] <igoryonya> ezra-s: default kernel, after I upgraded from 13.04 to 13.10
[08:16] <ezra-s> igoryonya, have you made you you are fully upgraded? apt-get update && apt-get upgrade and such?
[08:17] <ezra-s> those modules usually autoload
[08:17] <AmriUnix> hi guys I need some help about ubuntu touch!!!!!
[08:17] <somsip> !touch | AmriUnix
[08:18] <silvea12> Hey, I have an issue with HDMI sound output with pulseaudio. I have looked everywhere, but I can't seem to find anything that relates to my exact issue. Can anyone here help me? I have tried messing with some stuff to fix it, but no dice. Those changes have been reverted since.
[08:18] <AmriUnix> ubottu : can I install it on zte grand x in????
[08:18] <silvea12> I have a wierd issue where it sounds like the sample rate playing over HDMI is higher than it should be, but it isn't in the settings.
[08:19] <silvea12> or paman.
[08:19] <igoryonya> ezra-s: yes, I fully upgraded and did severul updates/upgrades after changing to 13.10, only through synaptic. Should I try update/upgrade, as you exampled?
[08:19] <silvea12> I have tried forcing different sample rates, different resampling algorithms... Can't figure anything out
[08:19] <AmriUnix> hi guys how to install ubuntu tv?????
[08:19] <somsip> AmriUnix: go to #ubuntu-touch or visit the site in the link the bot gave you
[08:19] <silvea12> Is anyone here able to help me with this pulseaudio issue?
[08:20] <AmriUnix> somsip : plz answer me . how ubuntu tv work?????
[08:20] <somsip> AmriUnix: http://www.ubuntu.com/tv/
[08:20] <popey> AmriUnix: ubuntu tv isn't done yet
[08:21] <AmriUnix> somsip : yes I know about it . but I don't figure out how to work with it!!!!
[08:21] <silvea12> actually... would libcec1 mess with HDMI audio output? I tried putting it in, rebooted, didnt detect my HDMI remote, so I removed it, but haven't rebooted yet... I'll try that (even though I've restarted the pulseaudio daemon like 100 times...)
[08:24] <TJ-> igoryonya: "udev" (user-space device manager) is responsible for receiving messages and acting on device events from the kernel. You can monitor those from a terminal whilst inserting a device to see if the kernel sees anything: "udevadm monitor --kernel --udev --property"
[08:24] <ezra-s> igoryonya, I don't know if you will get any difference, but maybe something didn't get correctly installed, particularily in the kernel packages
[08:24] <somsip> AmriUnix: I can't find anything that suggests it is suported here. I can't help further
[08:25] <trung1> hey all
[08:26] <silvea12> Nope
[08:26] <silvea12> didn't fix it
[08:26] <TJ-> somsip: It isn't; It's for device ODMs not end-users... it'll come pre-installed on devices and support will be via the TV maker primarily
[08:26] <is2b007> was wondering if there is a program on ubuntu that can move files from a directory every "x" hours and perhaps delete all files in a directory every "x" weeks
[08:27] <silvea12> maybe use cronjobs?
[08:27] <silvea12> run a command on a schedule
[08:27] <is2b007> hmm i'll look into running commands on schedules
[08:27] <igoryonya> TJ-: udevadm monitor --kernel --udev --property, showed no changes at all (un)plugging different devices in different ports
[08:27] <Luyin> is2b007: try cronjobs
[08:28] <silvea12> anyway, I am still having HDMI audio issues after that reboot, so that's not it...
[08:28] <TJ-> igoryonya: Can you pastebin "lsusb -t" ?
[08:28] <somsip> !crontab | is2b007
[08:28] <is2b007> thanks
[08:29] <TJ-> silvea12: Cant you better describe the symptoms you are hearing? A higher sample rate would result in a cleaner smoother sound. Are you hearing artefacts, crackle, delay, frequency distortion?
[08:30] <silvea12> It sounds like it is playing audio at a higher sample rate than the file actually is. Those exact symptoms... Except for the fact that according to paman, none of that is happening
[08:30] <silvea12> and if I don't use HDMI, it is fine (as in if i change device)
[08:31] <silvea12> all sample rates match up
[08:31] <TJ-> silvea12: As I said, playing at a higher sample rate would sound smoother... or there'd be a frequency shift 2x original sample rate would make it sound like Donald Duck.
[08:31] <silvea12> I believe it's called sample rates
[08:31] <silvea12> If I were to force an audio player to play a 44100Hz file at 48000Hz, it would be the EXACT same pitch as I get with HDMI
[08:31] <TJ-> silvea12: I suspect it is more likely a different codec is being used and the TV doesn't have a codec that can match the parameters exactly
[08:31] <igoryonya> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766662/
[08:32] <silvea12> I'm using a laptop with HDMI out
[08:32] <TJ-> silvea12: So there is a pitch difference? OK, that helps.
[08:32] <silvea12> as I said before, "If I were to force an audio player to play a 44100Hz file at 48000Hz, it would be the EXACT same pitch as I get with HDMI"
[08:32] <silvea12> That is the exact symptom I'm getting, except nothing shows that that's what's causing the issue
[08:32] <trung1> hi al, how r u doing?
[08:33] <Diehard> by hands
[08:33] <TJ-> silvea12: when did this start? what did you do/update immediately prior? That will help us narrow down the cause
[08:33] <silvea12> I plugged in HDMI for the first time on this laptop.
[08:33] <TJ-> igoryonya: OK, so your PC has USB3 and USB2/1.1 ports ... which ports are you plugging into?
[08:33] <silvea12> I am running kubuntu, but pulseaudio has all default settings.
[08:34] <silvea12> I am using a system 76 gazp9
[08:34] <igoryonya> TJ-: I tried all of them
[08:34] <TJ-> silvea12: OK ... so you've never had it play it correctly.... can you pastebin "lspci -nn" please?
[08:34] <TJ-> igoryonya: OK ... can you "lsmod | pastebinit"  ... to pastebin the result?
[08:34] <silvea12> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766674/
[08:35] <silvea12> Yes my /exec pastebinit script works, now to make that a shortcut...
[08:35] <silvea12> there we g
[08:35] <silvea12> go*
[08:36] <igoryonya> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766678/
[08:36] <igoryonya> TJ-: ezra-s: is it possible that some file permissions got screwed up?
[08:37] <TJ-> silvea12: That lspci shows the PC has 2 Intel HD Audio devices; 8086:0c0c and 8086:8c20 ... do you see two audio devices in the audio setup?
[08:37] <silvea12> Yep
[08:37] <silvea12> 1 sec...
[08:37] <silvea12> http://screencloud.net/v/iI00
[08:37] <ezra-s> usb_storage            62062  0 <-- this module should be used by something else
[08:38] <TJ-> silvea12: OK ... which version of Ubuntu is it? (wondering if it doesn't contain the correct audio codec settings for that PC model)
[08:38] <silvea12> kubuntu 13.10, up-to-date as of less than 6 hours ago
[08:39] <TJ-> igoryonya: Show me "lspci -nn | pastebinit"
[08:40] <ezra-s> igoryonya, follow TJ- advice, you need to find which is your usb host and load it's module
[08:40] <ezra-s> in my case I have intel, ehci_hcd driver
[08:40] <philomath> i recently went to ubuntu.com/download to download a 64bit saucy iso, but the ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso served by the mirror is actually i386!
[08:40] <TJ-> silvea12: Can you "grep 'snd-hda-intel' /etc/modprobe.d/* | pastebinit"
[08:41] <silvea12> Output of "grep 'snd-hda-intel' /etc/modprobe.d/*":
[08:41] <TJ-> philomath: which mirror?
[08:41] <silvea12> wait whoops
[08:42] <igoryonya> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766711/
[08:42] <philomath> TJ-: I do not remember exactly, but suppose it was some German mirror
[08:42] <philomath> TJ-: The md5 sum is that of the i386 iso
[08:42] <silvea12> yeah it's empty
[08:42] <silvea12> nothing comes out
[08:43] <TJ-> silvea12: OK ... just checking that there's nothing setting the kernel module's parameters to catch us out
[08:43] <Devil> hi
[08:43] <TJ-> igoryonya: oops, I needed slightly more info ... try this one: "lspci -knn | pastebinit"
[08:45] <igoryonya> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766730/
[08:46] <igoryonya> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766730/
[08:46] <TJ-> silvea12: I'm currently looking at the alsa-dev thread that began introducing support for that chipset... http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2012-July/053306.html
[08:46] <silvea12> by the way, everything is running on 44100Hz, and nothing has been forced/set as a default
[08:46] <philomath> TJ-: My download manager only recalls the original link http://www.ubuntu.com/start-download?distro=desktop&bits=64&release=latest. If that helps I can tell you from which IP I accessed the download.
[08:47] <silvea12> and normal audio is fine when playing through my speakers, even when HDMI is connected, it's when I feed it through HDMI that this occurs, and only on HDMI. Normal audio is unaffected.
[08:49] <silvea12> also, if this is any help...
[08:49] <silvea12> Output of "pactl list": http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766750/
[08:49] <TJ-> igoryonya: You're plugging in a USB flash storage device?
[08:49] <silvea12> and also...
[08:49] <silvea12> Output of "pacmd list": http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766752/
[08:50] <silvea12> OOH! Also, I have a raspberry pi, and can run any of the OS's on it from the site. None of them have this issue.
[08:50] <silvea12> So it's not the TV
[08:50] <silvea12> and not the cable
[08:51] <Fantyz> I'm writing a program that needs a PID file- I've seen theres a lot of those in /var/run so I assumed that would be the correct place to put it..? However it seems theres a bit of magic going on in there on boot?
[08:52] <ezra-s> igoryonya, do lspci -vv and check if "FCH USB EHCI Controller" usb controllers are using any drivers
[08:52] <ezra-s> igoryonya, or paste the whole thing in the paste.ubuntu.com site
[08:52] <igoryonya> TJ-: while testing, I tried usb dvd drive and usb mice (2 different kind)
[08:53] <TJ-> ezra-s: We already have that output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766730/
[08:53] <Kartagis> I have a bootable USB flash disk and a computer with Ubuntu on it. even though I mark the USB to boot, it fails to. how come?
[08:53] <TJ-> igoryonya: OK... so both storage and HID devices aren't found... that suggests something more fundamental is going on... can you do "ls -latr /etc/modprobe.d/* | pastebinit"
[08:53] <ezra-s> ohh, sorry
[08:54] <silvea12> Any ideas what may be going on at all with this? Or not much yet?
[08:54] <TJ-> ezra-s: great minds think alike :p
[08:54] <TJ-> silvea12: I'm working my way through it ... clues are usually very subtle :)
[08:54] <ezra-s> TJ-, hahaha, thank you, but you seem much faster ;)
[08:54] <igoryonya> ezra-s: 00:12.2 USB controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] FCH USB EHCI Controller (rev 11) (prog-if 20 [EHCI]); Kernel driver in use: ehci-pci
[08:55] <silvea12> Heh. You got that right. And in this situation... a little to subtle for me...
[08:55] <igoryonya> ezra-s: 00:13.2 USB controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] FCH USB EHCI Controller (rev 11) (prog-if 20 [EHCI]); Kernel driver in use: ehci-pci
[08:55] <silvea12> also, video here is unaffected. It works 100%.
[08:56] <silvea12> Some players, such as dragon player, actually speeds up video playback to keep up to audio
[08:56] <igoryonya> ezra-s: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766767/
[08:56] <silvea12> vlc on the other hand actually has short pauses every now and then to let the video catch up (every like 5 seconds or so)
[08:56] <silvea12> or 1
[08:56] <silvea12> not sure, probably just the buffer length
[08:56] <silvea12> so the programs kinda know what's going on...
[08:58] <philomath> TJ-: I consider that erroneous mirror a severe bug. I noticed that I was on a 32bit system after I had set up my system more or less completely. Now I need to reinstall everything. Do you have any suggestions where to report the issue?
[08:58] <TJ-> silvea12: I'm reading of Windows users with the same issues, and there's a thread in the Ubuntu forums describing the same issue with that audio controller for several models of PC
[08:58] <igoryonya> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766785/
[08:59] <silvea12> Can I grab a link?
[08:59] <TJ-> philomath: without being able to find the faulty link there's not much we can do
[08:59] <TJ-> silvea12: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2189718
[08:59] <sgo11> hi, I can test lightdm with command "lightdm --test-mode --debug". but the app screen is too small. how to increase the size or even fullscreen? thanks.
[09:01] <TJ-> igoryonya: Can you do "pastebinit /var/log/kern.log"
[09:03] <igoryonya> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766804/
[09:04] <TJ-> igoryonya: what device name is it you are connecting? "Transcend JetFlash 16GB" ?
[09:05] <philomath> TJ-: maybe there is some chance it could be found from ubuntu.com access log files by my IP address?
[09:06] <TJ-> igoryonya: There's the answer! Look at the end of the log-file... there's a log of crashes going on, and they look to be in "khubd"
[09:07] <TJ-> igoryonya: see bug #83748
[09:07] <TJ-> igoryonya: looks like the root cause has been around for years.
[09:08] <TJ-> igoryonya: I cannot find any Ubuntu package containing "khubd"
[09:08] <igoryonya> TJ-: I am trying to connect "Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000", "Genious NetScroll 100X" and "Samsung Portable DVD Writer SE-208". I haven't tried to connect any flash drive, although, I do have "Transcend JetFlash 16GB", I haven't connected it in months.
[09:09] <TJ-> igoryonya: OK, it's in linux :) no wonder I couldn't find it!
[09:11] <silvea12> I tried running with PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=[various low and high values, between 100-10000] with the player, and nope
[09:12] <silvea12> 100 stutters, 1000 plays like before, 10000 just adds a huge delay to playing, as I'm sure you would expect.
[09:13] <gso> Is there a way to make quota work in Ubuntu? So  that a hardlimit is actually enforced ?
[09:16] <TJ-> igoryonya: Have you tried removing "acpi=force irqpoll" from the kernel command-line? Those really aren't going to help with a modern system
[09:16] <TJ-> silvea12: It's a hard one to diagnose remotely without remote 'ears' :)
[09:16] <silvea12> I have an idea
[09:16] <silvea12> I'll record with my phone
[09:17] <silvea12> and upload it somewhere
[09:17] <TJ-> silvea12: Good plan, sherlock!
[09:19] <kongthap> i'm watching a SHA-1 clip, printf "blob 12\000Hello World\n" | shasum , 12 is bytes right?, and why there is 000 in front of Hello World?
[09:19] <silvea12> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/68357640/rec_20140117-2018.wav there you go
[09:20] <TJ-> igoryonya: I see that "workrave" crashed at 192 seconds  ... not sure if it is related to the USB issue but for now can you stop workrave from auto-starting?
[09:21] <TJ-> silvea12: *laughs* I hear what you mean ... I'm bound to say I think it improves the track :D
[09:21] <silvea12> Yeah, but not TV shows
[09:22] <TJ-> silvea12: oh I don't know...!
[09:22] <silvea12> Wierd Al songs definately get better though
[09:22] <silvea12> XD
[09:22] <TJ-> silvea12: :D
[09:22] <silvea12> But yeah, that unfortunately needs to go. If I want to do it again, there's always audacity
[09:23] <silvea12> or just fast forward in some players
[09:23] <TJ-> silvea12: OK... so, the codec is using the wrong sampling rate OR the player is misprogramming the sample rate. Are you using different audio players so we can rule out the media player as being responsible?
[09:23] <gso> Why can I keep appending to a file, larget then max allowed quota ?
[09:23] <silvea12> Ok, that was amarok... I'll prepare VLC, Audacity and Dragon Player
[09:24] <TJ-> silvea12: I don't expect it'll fix it... but lets be sure before digging too deep
[09:24] <igoryonya> TJ-: I've added 'acpi=force irqpoll' to try if it will resolve my usb issue after finding some info on ubuntu forum, but it didn't help any. I don't actually know what that line should do, but I tried. Before, the string was empty, in /etc/default/grub file, like that: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
[09:24] <TJ-> silvea12: running vlc-nox with debug output in a terminal and pastebinning it might be helpful - that often contains a lot of useful info
[09:25] <igoryonya> TJ-: I just removed it.
[09:25] <silvea12> vlc-nox is unknown
[09:25] <TJ-> igoryonya: Yes, removal is best. Let's try to remove everything non-standard that might contribute to the issue... that helps us narrow down the field
[09:25] <silvea12> how about vlc -vvv?
[09:26] <TJ-> silvea12: OK yes, vlc-nox is the VLC built with no X server interface :)
[09:26] <TJ-> silvea12: we just want the verbose log
[09:26] <silvea12> ok
[09:26] <silvea12> I'll go -vvv just in case
[09:27] <silvea12> lets see if /pb works with this...
[09:27] <k-rad> how is btrfs performance on 12.03
[09:27] <silvea12> "vlc -vvv" gave no output on stdout!
[09:27] <silvea12> dat spam

[09:31] <silvea12> We do get some warnings...
[09:31] <silvea12> [0x7feb08000958] pulse audio output warning: too early by 287352 us [0x7feb08000958] pulse audio output debug: changed sample rate to 43971 Hz
[09:31] <TJ-> igoryonya: You ought to be able to temporarily disable it from starting in the user session
[09:31] <silvea12> [0x7feb08000958] pulse audio output warning: underflow
[09:31] <TJ-> silvea12: That looks interesting!
[09:31] <GlemSom> How can I enforce quota ? So a usergroup cannot store data larger then a hard limit quota ?
[09:32] <silvea12> But, you should hear how the audio goes... it's actually almost perfect... I'll record it and show ya
[09:32] <TJ-> silvea12: but that is just to maintain sync I think... it's not straying far from 44.1kHz
[09:32] <silvea12> yeah
[09:32] <silvea12> pretty much what I was gonna show ya
[09:32] <silvea12> and it's not jittery like it hurts kinda
[09:33] <silvea12> it stops for like 1/3 of a second or so every now and then
[09:33] <silvea12> like every few seconds
[09:33] <jacobi> hello
[09:33] <silvea12> I could try verbose pulseaudio output... pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio -vvv
[09:33] <silvea12> should I?
[09:34] <TJ-> silvea12: I'm researching the background to "pulse audio output warning: too early by" ... to find out *why* its too audio... what is causing it? the hardware, or the media player
[09:34] <igoryonya> TJ-: for some reason, it doesn't show up in start up applications in preferences, I disabled it from the start up in /etc folder. it was long time ago, but it didn't get disabled in my user on the desktop, while it doesn't autostart on the newly created  uer. I can't figure out which file do I need to look in my home folder, I guess, to disable it.
[09:34] <silvea12> Not the media player
[09:35] <silvea12> at least not specifically vlc
[09:35] <silvea12> it's like that with all, just some speed up video instead of pausing audio
[09:35] <TJ-> igoryonya: Try this: "find ~/.{config,local} -name 'workrave*'  "   and/or this "grep -rn 'workrave' ~/.{config,local}"
[09:36] <TJ-> silvea12: I'm thinking an underlying pulse/alsa module issue
[09:36] <silvea12> It's highly possible... I just have no idea why...
[09:37] <silvea12> Imma go and do pastebinit with pulseaudio -vvv and do a similar vlc thing
[09:37] <TJ-> silvea12: Do you have any custom alsa settings? ~/.alsa* I *think* may find them in the user session ... which makes me wonder... do you get the same result playing the file from a guest/clean user session?
[09:37] <silvea12> nope
[09:37] <silvea12> haven't changed anything
[09:37] <silvea12> and I don't even have a ~/.pulse file/folder for some reason
[09:37] <silvea12> I have .pulse_cookie
[09:38] <silvea12> and ~/.local/pulse/pulse_cookie and a bunch of db files in ~/.local/pulse
[09:38] <yos87> hi
[09:38] <silvea12> hey
[09:39] <yos87> I have problem with xrdp, when I try to login from mstsc , login successfull but I got blackscreen only, I cound't solve this out from search, xrdp was working before but recently faced this problem
[09:39] <silvea12> Output of "pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio -vvv 2>&1": http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766939/
[09:39] <silvea12> heh
[09:39] <silvea12> that is a LARGE file
[09:39] <silvea12> and was only very small
[09:39] <yos87> any one can help with this problem ?
[09:40] <silvea12> there are a number of things in that paste that may be interesting
[09:41] <silvea12> A lot of things similar to this: "D: [alsa-sink-VT1802 Analog] sink.c: Found underrun 3272 bytes ago (224 bytes ahead in playback buffer)"
[09:41] <TJ-> silvea12: See for "PTS out of range" https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/1134
[09:42] <silvea12> "It starts playing smoothly, but from some point it starts breaking more and more, and finally audio and video stops completely." - not my issue there...
[09:42] <silvea12> It is steady where it breaks
[09:42] <sen__> HI ,
[09:42] <silvea12> and I have tried with multiple audio/video files...
[09:42] <sen__> How can I disable the space switch ahimation
[09:42] <silvea12> If I wanted, I have like 170+ here
[09:43] <silvea12> thanks to a youtube request feature of a program I made...
[09:43] <TJ-> silvea12: silvea12 No, I was  more looking at the description of PES streams as being the source of that issue
[09:43] <sen__> I want to disable the space switch animation in os x 10.9
[09:44] <igoryonya> TJ-: find returned only ".config/ailurus/Workrave.png", grep returned nothing, but "find ~ -iname '*work*rave*'" returned ".gconf/apps/workrave", so I did "grep -Iirl 'workrave' ~/.gconf*" and it returned ".gconf/apps/panel/applets/applet_4/%gconf.xml"
[09:44] <TJ-> silvea12: I'm trying to disgard all the possible clues to narrow it down
[09:44] <silvea12> I'll need to look at what PES streams are
[09:44] <silvea12> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6766939/ - this is pulseaudio -vvv when playing some stuff
[09:44] <TJ-> silvea12: I don't think PES is the issue; but that helped to say we can discount the PTS warnings
[09:45] <silvea12> I believe this says something useful in it
[09:49] <yos87> anyone can help with xrdp issue
[09:49] <cppking> how ubuntu works on thinkpad twist?
[09:51] <TJ-> silvea12: I wonder if line 526 is significant or just optional? "I: [pulseaudio] (alsa-lib)utils.c: could not open configuration file /usr/share/alsa/ucm/HDA Intel PCH/HDA Intel PCH.conf"
[09:52] <silvea12> I: [pulseaudio] (alsa-lib)utils.c: could not open configuration file /usr/share/alsa/ucm/HDA Intel MID/HDA Intel MID.conf
[09:52] <silvea12> line 93
[09:52] <silvea12> so looks like it isn't
[09:52] <silvea12> wait...
[09:52] <silvea12> MID is the HDMI one
[09:52] <silvea12> pch is the built-in one
[09:53] <silvea12> so that's just some info there
[09:53] <Zerai> hello everyone. What is the x84 compatibility packae for the latest release?
[09:53] <Zerai> package*
[09:53] <silvea12> I believe that's right
[09:53] <silvea12> x86?
[09:53] <Zerai> silvea12: used to be ia32-libs-multiarch
[09:53] <silvea12> That is no longer required I believe. To install 32-bit libraries using apt-get, just add on :i386 on to the end of the package names
[09:53] <silvea12> ia32-libs is now depricated I think
[09:54] <silvea12> since 12.10 or 13.04
[09:54] <silvea12> you just do packagename:i386 for it
[09:54] <silvea12> you can have both at once
[09:54] <silvea12> idk why it's all like that now, but anyway...
[09:56] <KI7MT> ia32-libs was a short solution. Mult-Arch is now standard, to install x86 apps, simple sudo apt-get install <package-name>:i386
[09:56] <KI7MT> *simply .. ..
[09:57] <KI7MT> wow, I have some serious lag ... Need better inet connection :-)
[09:57] <Zerai> KI7MT: lib23z1?
[09:59] <KI7MT> Zerai, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiArch
[10:01] <TJ-> silvea12: I know this is a long-shot, but do you have any other HDMI TV you can test it on? I'm wondering if there is some miscommunication with that panasonic. I can't find any other similar reports for that intel chipset
[10:02] <silvea12> No, but I have my sister's laptop. Runs windows 8.1, and she recently watched a few episodes online, no audio issues there
[10:02] <silvea12> Acer Aspire
[10:02] <mogaj> am unable to open http websites but https websites opening fine ... My OS ubuntu 12.04 ... how can i rectify the issue?
[10:02] <cppking> did ubuntu 12.04 support touch screen and screen auto-roatation on thinkpad-twist
[10:03] <Zerai> KI7MT: that doesn't really help
[10:04] <TJ-> silvea12: I'm at a loss, it looks like it could be pulseaudio... have you tried playing an audio track just with the command-line aplay?
[10:04] <silvea12> I'll see...
[10:04] <m3kk> Can someone tell me if my computer could run ubuntu+unity satisfying? i know specs recommendation but that is not reality often, im using processor E450 with radeon 6320 gpu
[10:04] <m3kk> If someone has experience with this setup (laptop)
[10:04] <TJ-> mogaj: Sounds like your PC is behind/using a HTTP proxy
[10:05] <cfhowlett> m3kk, "satisfying" is quantifiable ...
[10:05] <KI7MT> Zerai, You asked for x86 compatibility package info, that's that's the info.
[10:05] <m3kk> cfhowlett: well, fluently?
[10:05] <silvea12> same issue, and I have to force it to use the tv via pulseaudio... what paramaters would I give it to get it to go directly to HDMI?
[10:05] <mogaj> TJ  : but all websites are opening fine in windows system connected to same network?
[10:05] <cfhowlett> m3kk, not a measurable metric.  I suggest you install and test for yourself.  It's free to do so.
[10:06] <silvea12> oh wait, -D
[10:06] <Zerai> KI7MT: seems strung together in a hurry really. I'll  have to try to figure it all out then, or get the deb and work from there
[10:06] <m3kk> cfhowlett: ofcourse, but i was asking if anyone had experience. like drivers for gpu for instanse. I have tried 13.10 before and it just crashed when in settings of enabling prop drivers
[10:07] <cfhowlett> m3kk, see now THOSE are details that are possibly solvable.
[10:07] <cfhowlett> !details
[10:08] <silvea12> nope... pasuspender -- sleep 100
[10:08] <cfhowlett> m3kk, what year is your computer?
[10:08] <silvea12> then aplay -D "hdmi:CARD=MID,DEV=1" [file]
[10:08] <silvea12> same issue
[10:08] <m3kk> cfhowlett: ive had it for 1 year perhaps
[10:08] <silvea12> Had to do pasuspender, otherwise it was locked out by pulseaudio
[10:08] <TJ-> silvea12: Then we are at the ALSA/kernel level
[10:09] <m3kk> cfhowlett:i don't understand my laptop.. it  has a intel E450 cpu with radeon graphics?
[10:09] <cfhowlett> m3kk, yeah, that happens sometimes ...
[10:09] <cfhowlett> :)
[10:09] <silvea12> This is gonna be fun...
[10:10] <silvea12> and it's 9:09PM
[10:10] <silvea12> and I still gotta empty the dishwasher before my mum gets home... at least I have an excuse, she knows that I have this wierd issue
[10:10] <silvea12> she laughed too btw
[10:11] <m3kk> I have tried Ubuntu+gnome,kde, cinnamon, unity. and every DE is really sluggish. Im using xfce and its fine.. making me assume i have a gpu driver problem
[10:11] <silvea12> should I kill pulseaudio? as in stop it from restarting
[10:11] <m3kk> I want to belive my gpu should run unity without hassle
[10:11] <silvea12> lxde is good for lightweightedness
[10:11] <silvea12> unity doesnt like nvidia binary/proprietary drivers for one thing
[10:11] <silvea12> it won't start
[10:12] <m3kk> my moms old lg express p1 runs unity without flaw or lag, my newer laptop does not
[10:12] <TJ-> silvea12: I just found this thread, it might not help but it is interesting, especially the last post about setting alsa software resampling  http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/29246-13-linux-sound-fast
[10:12] <TJ-> silvea12: Have you suspended to RAM recently?
[10:13] <silvea12> yeah, but fresh reboot less than 4 hours ago, no suspend since
[10:13] <aaron_> Hey guys, any idea why i would be able to access my router configuration page fine when running windows but unable to do so in ubuntu with both chromium and firefox????
[10:13] <silvea12> Heh, cassette tapes... I explained it to my mum like a record player with a higher RPM than the record says, and it becomes a chipmunk
[10:13] <TJ-> silvea12: OK, because I found this bug #48001
[10:13] <mat__> arron: no network connection...?
[10:14] <TJ-> silvea12: wrong one, typo! bug #480010
[10:14] <aaron_> no,  i have network connection and am only right now via that router
[10:14] <silvea12> It's not suspended related, I have had a fresh reboot since
[10:14] <mat__> aaron: hmmm...
[10:14] <mat__> strange...
[10:14] <aaron_> mat__, Like I said, I can go reboot in windows and access, just not on ubuntu
[10:14] <mat__> aaron: are you connected via WIFI or cable?
[10:14] <aaron_> mat__, wifi
[10:15] <mat__> aaron: have you tried with a cable?
[10:15] <aaron_> mat__, no access to cable
[10:15] <TJ-> silvea12: I wonder if using the basis of comment #4 would help? setting a sample rate for snd-hda-intel device=.... as Daniel Chen recommends?
[10:15] <silvea12> Ok, I've stopped pulseaudio, and stopped it from auto-starting
[10:15] <mat__> aaron: ebay... ?
[10:15] <silvea12> ill take a look
[10:15] <mat__> aaron: what router do you have?
[10:16] <m3kk> I have tried ubuntu with a lot of different DE's, all of those who runs with GPU is sluggish to me, which lead me to belive i have trouuble with drivers. if i install prop drivers it does not make any difference really. my laptop SHOULD be able to perform rather good: E450 processor, radeon 6320, 4gb ram. Tips?
[10:16] <aaron_> mat__, lol.....let me clarify. No access to router to make a cable connection
[10:16] <aaron_> mat__, I can get a cable, just cant get to the router
[10:16] <TJ-> silvea12: I have to leave you to it now, but let me know how you get on
[10:16] <silvea12> I'll try that
[10:16] <mat__> aaron: it is your router?
[10:16] <silvea12> a few things
[10:16] <silvea12> ok
[10:16] <silvea12> thanks for your help TJ-!
[10:17] <aaron_> mat__, Motorola SURFboard SB5101E
[10:17] <TJ-> silvea12: Good luck!
[10:17] <silvea12> Thanks
[10:17] <thom_r> how do you connect to the router in Windows to change settings?
[10:17] <aaron_> thom_r, locate your gateway address and access it through your browser
[10:18] <thom_r> I know how to do it, I was asking you how you perform that function in Windows.
[10:18] <aaron_> mat__, yup ypu
[10:18] <mat__> aaron: are you setting your IP address manually?
[10:19] <aaron_> mat__, nope, all auto.
[10:19] <mat__> aaron: or how about doing a factory reset of the router?
[10:19] <aaron_> thom_r, command prompt
[10:19] <aaron_> thom_r, ipconfig /all
[10:19] <mat__> aaron: sorry, you dont have access to router...
[10:20] <aaron_> mat__, lol....yeah, thats a no go
[10:20] <mat__> aaron: try setting the network settings manually...?
[10:20] <aaron_> mat__, assigning an IP? Yeah, i could try that
[10:21] <mat__> aaron: not sure what else it could be unless there's some kind of MAC address filtering on the router... Would have thought this would have blocked internet access to though...?
[10:21] <mat__> aaron: have you tried another web browser?
[10:21] <aaron_> mat__, agreed, i should imagine mac filtering would block connection all together, which would also block me in windows as well
[10:21] <mat__> well yeah...
[10:23] <mat__> aaron: are you getting any error when trying to log in to your router?
[10:24] <mat__> aaron: and you've definitely not got anything set in your Ubuntu Firewall (ufw)?
[10:25] <Zerai> KI7MT: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory  (but it says it's installed)
[10:27] <knightshade> hi
[10:28] <kian__> zerai- check if the .so.0 file exsists in both /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib
[10:28] <KI7MT> Zerai, This an Nginx iss?
[10:28] <manlin> clear
[10:28] <manlin> oops sorry wrong window
[10:29] <KI7MT> Zerai, Whatever it is, it's looking for Perl Comp Reg Expr .. so whatever app is looking for it, it's not finding it in /etc/ld.so.conf ..
[10:30] <KI7MT> Zerai, You need either to install pcre or, configure the app properly to look for pcre where it's installed
[10:31] <Zerai> KI7MT: Seems I have to redo my install script.
[10:32] <aaron_> mat__, think i lost my connection earlier, wasnt seeing anything in here
[10:32] <KI7MT> Zerai, you could do some work with file and ldd to find out where or what the binaries / libs are or looking for.
[10:33] <KI7MT> Zerai, before going too far. try: sudo ldconfig
[10:33] <Zerai> KI7MT: one sec, I'll pastebin my install script. it worked until this release
[10:34] <Zerai> KI7MT: http://pastebin.com/LZnTFMn7
[10:34] <aaron_> mat__, i was thinking browser issue at first cuz its typically either that or router issue itself......so long as ipv4 settings are correct. But thats why i tried multiple browsers and tried clearing firefox to no avail
[10:34] <KI7MT> Zerai, others will probably better at the script part.
[10:35] <Zerai> KI7MT: it's a simple script, more I was showing you what packages
[10:35] <aaron_> mat__, it just annoys me that i have to reboot into windows to access the router
[10:35] <Zerai> KI7MT: I can't write good shell scripts, and I wrote that one
[10:35] <KI7MT> Zerai, you running the script with sudo ?
[10:36] <Zerai> KI7MT: yes
[10:36] <aaron_> guessin ya disappeared on me
[10:37] <Holdery> !list
[10:37] <KI7MT> Zerai, All can suggest is, install them by hand, one at a time and see what's failing and work those errors first.
[10:38] <Zerai> KI7MT: or should I just add a line with all "*:i386"
[10:39] <KI7MT> Zerai, What is your system, and what version of Ubuntu you running?
[10:39] <Zerai> KI7MT: it's a VM atm, amd I'm using latest ubunu
[10:40] <Zerai> KI7MT: Linux rising 3.11.0-15-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 9 18:17:04 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[10:41] <KI7MT> Zerai, I dont see why you would need i386, your running 64bit
[10:41] <Zerai> KI7MT: the daemons I'm running are 32 bit
[10:42] <igoryonya> TJ-: so, I moved to a backup folder everything, I've found about workrave, did "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade", I guess, I should reboot now?...
[10:42] <Zerai> KI7MT: and propritary, no source to make a 64bit version
[10:42] <karstenk1977_> searching for a german ubuntu professional
[10:42] <Zerai> !de | karstenk1977_
[10:42] <KI7MT> Zerai, sorry, can't help help you with that one.
[10:42] <Zerai> KI7MT: well, it's just the libs right now, the rest I have working fine
[10:45] <KI7MT> Zerai, You may be able to link libpcre.so to libpcre.so.0 with ln -s  in /ust/lib64  ro something along those lines
[10:45] <KI7MT> */usr/lib64 or whereever it is.
[10:46] <KI7MT> Zerai, something like: cd /usr/lib64 && ln -s libpcre.so libpcre.so.0
[10:48] <KI7MT> Zerai, use locate .. locate libpcre.so first.
[10:48] <Zerai> KI7MT: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3.13.1
[10:48] <silvea12> hang on... /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf - defaults.pcm.dmix.rate 48000
[10:49] <silvea12> That may be it
[10:49] <silvea12> 44100... lets see if that helps
[10:49] <KI7MT> Zerai, you dont have i386 .. my install is, for example: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3
[10:50] <silvea12> nope
[10:50] <silvea12> that didnt do it... ugh
[10:50] <Zerai> KI7MT: so how do I get the i386 libs?
[10:51] <KI7MT> Zerai, That's a good question, one in which I dont have the answer too.
[10:52] <Zerai> Anyone know how to get the i386 libs on 64bit ubuntu now? (Lates version)
[10:53] <KI7MT> Zerai, This is a guess, and dont shout if it doesn't work, you may need the dev package, libpcre3-dev:i386
[10:53] <Zerai> KI7MT: I'll try it
[10:54] <lorrido> Hello there :)
[10:54] <KI7MT> Hello
[10:55] <Zerai> KI7MT: let's see if that worked
[10:59] <silvea12> I am completely stumpped...
[10:59] <silvea12> I guess I'll just have to use external speakers or something... oh well
[11:00] <silvea12> thanks anyway for your help TJ-
[11:00] <silvea12> Really appreciate it :D
[11:00] <silvea12> Cya!
[11:02] <somethingrandom> hey, upgraded chrome beta yesterday, it's still on the previous build number and the plugins are gone a re-installation didn't help, what could i do?
[11:03] <Zerai> KI7MT: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory  <it REALLY wants ".0"
[11:04] <Zerai> KI7MT: Apparently I have to link to ".0"
[11:04] <obje> hi there, I have a short question about lamp. Anyone free to answer me? thanks in advance
[11:06] <KI7MT> Zerai, well I did find this in Synaptic: libpcre++0  but thats cpp stuff, don't think that's what your after. What are these ia32 apps?
[11:06] <nevyn> obje: just ask
[11:06] <Zerai> KI7MT: server files, just the new formatting is being.. crazy
[11:07] <obje> is the installation of lamp/mysql and php that run in background when I start my machine use system resources, because my hardware specs are low and I'm curious if it will slow my OS
[11:08] <obje> and If I will need to manually
[11:08] <obje> quit the app or no
[11:08] <obje> when I do not use it
[11:08] <obje> via terminal
[11:09] <Zerai> how do you fix broken packages?
[11:09] <llutz> obje: yes it uses ressources, but if it will slow down your machine, you'll have to test
[11:10] <KI7MT> Zerai, Only thing I can this is maybe ur ld.so.cache is fubar .. you could try deleting and rebuild it with ldconfig
[11:10] <KI7MT> *can think
[11:10] <Zerai> KI7MT: I think I broke packages lol it's rying to install new ones and giving me errors
[11:11] <KI7MT> Zarthus, ldd httpd and see if it's pulling that same lib as not found
[11:12] <KI7MT> Zerai, And I've found several references stating pcre should be installed before apache2, particularly with 2.4+
[11:12] <obje> llutz if bitnami work like single app and I'm able just to quit it when I do not use it, so it is better choice for the purpose?
[11:13] <Zerai> KI7MT: so should I just uninstall apache and reinstall it?
[11:13] <llutz> obje: set apache/mysql to manual start, and just start it manually when you're going to use it
[11:14] <KI7MT> Zerai, This may help: http://askubuntu.com/questions/309228/apache-service-not-starting
[11:14] <obje> obje how to do that via terminal?
[11:14] <obje> llutz *how to do that via terminal?
[11:14] <Zerai> KI7MT: well.. it's not apache not starting
[11:14] <llutz> obje: echo manual |sudo tee /etc/init/apache2.override
[11:14] <llutz> obje: echo manual |sudo tee /etc/init/mysql.override
[11:15] <Zerai> KI7MT: apache works fine
[11:15] <KI7MT> Zerai, Oh, So what is it that's not starting?
[11:15] <obje> llutz so bitnami is not suitable ?
[11:15] <llutz> obje: that should prevent apache/mysql from being started on startup. "sudo start mysql; sudo start apache2" to start it manually
[11:15] <llutz> obje: idk what bitnami is
[11:16] <Zerai> KI7MT: it's a deamon for a server program
[11:16] <Zerai> KI7MT: it relies on libpcre0
[11:16] <KI7MT> Zerai, What deamon
[11:17] <Zerai> KI7MT: it's part of a cluster of them, this one's called gfactiond
[11:17] <obje> llutz sorry what idk means
[11:17] <llutz> Zerai: to install 32bit libs, use "sudo apt-get install lib-youneed:i386"
[11:17] <llutz> obje: i don't know
[11:17] <llutz> obje: i don't know  what bitnami is
[11:17] <Zerai> KI7MT: libpcre.so.0:i386 ?
[11:18] <llutz> Zerai: packagename:i386   not filename
[11:18] <TomyWork> with raring being EOL before trusty gets released (sucks, btw), i would need to first upgrade to saucy and then, 2-3 months later, ugrade again to trusty
[11:19] <Mastablasta> I have the isight webcam for mac. I have installed isight firmware but when I go to use cam nothing light wont turn on. Any suggestions? Do i need  a modded firewire package?
[11:19] <KI7MT> Zerai,  the packages are: libpcrecpp0 and libpcre++0
[11:19] <Zerai> KI7MT: thank you
[11:19] <TomyWork> so i'm thinking about upgrading before the release
[11:19] <TomyWork> is that possible? advisable?
[11:20] <TomyWork> i know debian testing is usually pretty stable 2-3 months before the release
[11:20] <obje> llutz thanks for the help
[11:21] <llutz> !lampp| obje install from repos, not 3rd party stuff
[11:21] <llutz> !lamp| obje install from repos, not 3rd party stuff
[11:21] <kostkon> TomyWork, yeah, better than being vulnerable for 3 months
[11:22] <TomyWork> kostkon, i still dont want to believe it, btw. why would they put 13.04's EOL before 12.10's?
[11:23] <obje> ubottu tnks
[11:23] <TomyWork> 12.10 isn't an LTS or anything
[11:23] <KI7MT> Zerai, but thats going to give you libpcre++.so.0 .. not sure thats what you need. as the error was libpcre.so.0
[11:23] <Zerai> KI7MT: yea, it needs libpcre.so.0
[11:24] <Zerai> KI7MT: headache that it requires something specific. I'll pull it from a different machine I guess lol
[11:24] <TomyWork> all releases except13.04  have an EOL *after* the LTS that follows them.
[11:25] <KI7MT> Zerai, I can't find libpcre.so.0 in any of the source failes, they all pull ++.so.0
[11:26] <Zerai> KI7MT: it's on an old machine I'll just dig the file out of that
[11:26] <KI7MT> Zerai, That may be the issue, as the new libpcre is so.3 .. so long shout but you;d could try the link we talked about earlier.
[11:27] <KI7MT> *long shot but you could .. ..
[11:27] <Zerai> KI7MT: Already tried it, didn't work
[11:28] <Hix> Anyone had experience of running Ubuntu under a vmware vm and having keymap discrepancies between ubuntu login and the desktop? I have to login using DVORAK and once in it reverts to QWERTY. #vmware seem to think its an Ubuntu issue
[11:28] <KI7MT> Zerai, Well, that's me busted, I'm out of ideas on this one.
[11:29] <Zerai> KI7MT: I'll grab it from a different machine running an older ubuntu
[11:29] <KI7MT> Zerai, I just searched the UB packag e sources for libpcre.so.0 .. NIL results.
[11:30] <KI7MT> Lots of ++.so.0 and so.3 but nothing for so.0
[11:31] <Zerai> KI7MT: Lemme check a different install, one sec
[11:33] <ahmad> night everyone im having some unknown issue my ubuntu kept saying theres a problem every few second
[11:33] <ahmad> does anybody have any idea what might fix this
[11:34] <KI7MT> Zerai, when ya get a chance runs this: sudo ldd /usr/sbin/apache2 | pastebinit
[11:35] <ahmad> me?
[11:35] <KI7MT> then post us the link is spits out
[11:35] <ahmad> ill do it rightaway
[11:35] <ahmad> when i typed it
[11:35] <ahmad> it says the following program bla bla
[11:36] <ahmad> should i install it first?
[11:37] <ahmad> hey ki7
[11:37] <ahmad> please answer
[11:38] <ahmad> night everyone im having some unknown issue my ubuntu kept saying theres a problem every few second does anybody have any idea what might fix this
[11:39] <Ben64> you'd definitely need to specify the error in order to get any help
[11:39] <ahmad> i don't know how to specify it really
[11:39] <ahmad> it says nothing
[11:40] <Ben64> it has to say something
[11:40] <ahmad> it says my ubuntu experienced error
[11:40] <ahmad> send or not send report
[11:40] <Ben64> there should be a button to see details of it
[11:40] <ahmad> : (
[11:40] <ahmad> then maybe i shall wait for another error report
[11:40] <Ben64> don't be sad, give details
[11:41] <ahmad> i tried to open system log
[11:41] <ahmad> found a wall of text i cannot understand
[11:42] <Ben64> pastebin anything that looks like an error
[11:42] <ahmad> how
[11:42] <Ben64> go to pastebin.com, paste it, then give the url to it here
[11:42] <ahmad> i see
[11:43] <ahmad> ill see to it later
[11:43] <Zerai> KI7MT: old version had it, new one doesn't, odd..
[11:43] <ahmad> ouch ki7 is still here
[11:44] <KI7MT> Zerai, All the fixes Ive ran into are very old, but they all say same thing, link the libpcre.so.3.xx.x to libpcre.so.0 .. then sudo ldconfig -v
[11:45] <Zerai> KI7MT: well, I coppied the old file, so that should work too lol
[11:45] <KI7MT> Zerai, And that's in both x86_64 and the i386-linuc-gnu lib dirs
[11:46] <Zerai> KI7MT: copping it worked too, and since this is just an updated version of the old one this will do for it. thanks :)
[11:47] <KI7MT> Zerai, Ok, well glad you got it working, I still dont know where that .so.0 is coming from, so don't loose that file ..lol
[11:47] <Zerai> KI7MT: yea, old backup virtual disc lol
[11:48] <KI7MT> Mak another backup of it :)

[11:53] <jkkkkkkkkk> HI, all, how to know which IP i am using right now
[11:53] <jkkkkkkkkk> i was using team viewer previously
[11:54] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: on the WAN side, or your PC behind a router?
[11:54] <ahmad> what ip are you looking for jkk
[11:54] <jkkkkkkkkk> i have two IPs, one is when i googled
[11:54] <ahmad> public ip? personal ip?
[11:54] <ahmad> thats public ip
[11:54] <jkkkkkkkkk> I am using internet via modem
[11:54] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: wget -qO- icanhazip.com
[11:55] <jkkkkkkkkk> mobile 3g modem, actually
[11:55] <ahmad> run this
[11:55] <ahmad> in terminal
[11:55] <ahmad> ifconfig
[11:56] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: my command will give you your WAN IP, ahmad's command will also work
[11:56] <jkkkkkkkkk> ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
[11:56] <jkkkkkkkkk>           inet addr:172.29.239.56  P-t-P:10.64.64.64  Mask:255.255.255.255

[11:57] <jkkkkkkkkk> one is this, other is when i googled, what is my IP
[11:57] <ahmad> listen jkkkk
[11:57] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: 180.214.131.119   is your IP
[11:57] <ahmad> your public ip or the name of your computer in the internet is the googled one
[11:57] <jkkkkkkkkk> yes, this is what google says
[11:57] <ahmad> the personal ip that you used to get internet connection is that one from terminal
[11:58] <jkkkkkkkkk> so, which Ip to use when connecting to this computer remotely
[11:58] <ahmad> 172.29.239.56
[11:58] <Ben64> no, the one google told you
[11:58] <ahmad> remotely the 180.blabla
[11:58] <ahmad> i was typing somethig when you replied
[11:58] <jkkkkkkkkk> so, 180. bla bla, something should be filled in the server field, when connecting to ubuntu
[11:59] <waly_> hello guys
[11:59] <ahmad> sup waly
[11:59] <jkkkkkkkkk> from other ubuntu machine, how to enable remote desktop in ubuntu,
[11:59] <Ben64> jkkkkkkkkk: yes, as long as the ports aren't blocked or anything
[12:00] <ahmad> yes jkkkkk
[12:00] <jkkkkkkkkk> Ben64: team viewer was a good solution  but now it give me problem many times, so i am looking for a native linux solution
[12:00] <Ool> NX no machine do the trick
[12:00] <Ben64> jkkkkkkkkk: the best way would be to tunnel vnc over ssh
[12:00] <jkkkkkkkkk> where is the option, enable remote desktop connection to this computer
[12:01] <ActionPa1snip> !ssh | jkkkkkkkkk
[12:01] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: that will enable a VNC server whichis not secure so not a wise choice over WAN
[12:01] <jkkkkkkkkk> Ben64: i have a slow internet connection, i am looking for a GUI , as less headache for me
[12:02] <Ben64> jkkkkkkkkk: i don't see how that relates to what i said at all
[12:02] <Ben64> jkkkkkkkkk: and if you have a slow connection, maybe you shouldn't be using gui at all
[12:03] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: what do you want to do on the remote PC?
[12:03] <jkkkkkkkkk> Ben64: I mean, I am familiar with GUI not with command line and screen quality may be bad, but i will prefer gui
[12:03] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: what do you want to do on the remote PC?
[12:03] <jkkkkkkkkk> ActionPa1snip: i would like to control this PC, from remote location
[12:03] <Ben64> jkkkkkkkkk: you can do vnc over ssh, would still be graphics, just secure
[12:04] <Ben64> but you can get a lot more done faster if you just learn ssh
[12:05] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: yes but to achieve what? yes control it, but control it to do what?
[12:06] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: manage torrents? for example?
[12:06] <jkkkkkkkkk> ActionPa1snip: everything, except disconnecting thisPC from internet. Like  sending file, or other things, this pc is to be used by my gf
[12:06] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: you can send files using SSH
[12:07] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: nautilus can connect to the SFTP server and then copying files to the server will be no differnet to copying files around the PC you are sat at now
[12:07] <jkkkkkkkkk> sometimes, if she gets into trouble, instead of telling her to do things, like that and that
[12:07] <jkkkkkkkkk> and wasting my time, just do that
[12:08] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: remote support is handy, you will need an SSH tunnel if you want to use VNC. It has zero security
[12:08] <jkkkkkkkkk> ActionPa1snip: thanks, but try to understand, gf will not understand that, she will move to windows, if i told her about SSH and VNC and other things, i just want her to tell IP like, just like team viewr ID
[12:09] <waly_> guys I have no idea if bumblebee is working properly in my system
[12:09] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: you can use teamviewer I guess
[12:09] <waly_> I have been reading quite a bit but have no idea if it is working
[12:09] <waly_> i tried running glxspheres but there is no program like that
[12:09] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: does the command 'optirun glxgears'  run faster than 'glxgears'
[12:10] <waly_> they don't run
[12:10] <waly_> there is no program as glxgears or glxspheres
[12:10] <jkkkkkkkkk> ActionPa1snip: i was using it, but it creates lot of problem now, latest version, everytime asks to start daemon
[12:10] <jkkkkkkkkk> old version , give me error unknown messages
[12:11] <pravinmishra> Hi
[12:11] <jkkkkkkkkk> anybody used remmina remote desktop client??
[12:12] <ActionPa1snip> jkkkkkkkkk: that is just another vnc client, still poor security
[12:12] <waly_> i installed it using the bumblebee wiki
[12:12] <waly_> so not sure if everything is fine
[12:12] <waly_> i am gonne uninstall it and see what it does
[12:12] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: is there a differnce in fps when you use optirun and not optirun?
[12:13] <jkkkkkkkkk> no need of security, for me, PC doesn't contain very sensible data
[12:13] <waly_> actionPalsnip as I said, it doesn't run glxgears
[12:13] <waly_> it tells me that it is not installed
[12:13] <waly_> and that I should installed mesa-lib or something
[12:13] <jkkkkkkkkk> by the way, thanks for the information
[12:13] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: install mesa-utils
[12:14] <waly_> ok
[12:14] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: did you install the package named?
[12:14] <loa> what method to start program after user login?
[12:14] <loa> i done this somehow and want to switch program off
[12:14] <ActionPa1snip> loa: use the 'startup items' icon in Dash
[12:15] <antoniomagic> Aloha...
[12:15] <loa> looks like i modified something by hands.
[12:15] <loa> in user directory
[12:15] <antoniomagic>  I can't get my droid phone to connect to my laptop via the charging/data transfer usb cable
[12:15] <loa> i have ubuntu 12.04
[12:15] <waly_> ok installed mesa-utils
[12:15] <antoniomagic> sometimes when I plug it in the folders from the sd card will show up..and now they wont
[12:15] <waly_> and I see the same result while running both ways
[12:15] <hitsujiTMO> loa: .profile, .xprofile, .bashrc     first places to look
[12:15] <antoniomagic> They will on a windows based computer though
[12:15] <waly_> it gives me a steady 59.920 fps
[12:16] <ActionPa1snip> loa: run:   history | less      read the commands you editted, may give clues
[12:16] <Mattias> antoniomagic: which android version?
[12:16] <ActionPa1snip> antoniomagic: when you disconnect the device form the windows system, do you use the safe removal feature in your OS before unplugging it physically?
[12:17] <antoniomagic> actionpa1snip: not sure
[12:17] <antoniomagic> so the folders finally showed up after like 2 or 3 minutes...
[12:17] <antoniomagic> Now I'm getting this error when I try to copy anything to the sd card
[12:17] <antoniomagic> The folder "Dr. Lloyd Glauberman - ...ion - A Rythmic Approach" cannot be copied because you do not have permissions to create it in the destination.
[12:17] <ActionPa1snip> antoniomagic: Its a concious decision. There is no 'not sure' about it
[12:18] <loa> it was in .config/autostart/
[12:18] <ActionPa1snip> loa: that is configured in the 'startup apps' item in dash too
[12:18] <ActionPa1snip> antoniomagic: in the system tray do you double click the 'safe remove hardware' icon, then stop the hardare, then remove it
[12:18] <ActionPa1snip> antoniomagic: my guess is 'no'
[12:18] <antoniomagic> nope
[12:19] <GlemSom> Are there any way to enforce a hardlimit quota on Linux? (ext4)
[12:19] <ActionPa1snip> antoniomagic: then plug it back in to WIndows, then USE the feature in the OS as I descibed
[12:20] <ActionPa1snip> antoniomagic: you are not using your hardware correctly
[12:20] <ActionPa1snip> GlemSom: sure
[12:20] <ActionPa1snip> GlemSom: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/saucy/man2/quotactl.2.html   etc
[12:21] <ActionPa1snip> GlemSom: http://unixprofessionals.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/how-to-apply-quota-on-ubuntu-server.html
[12:21] <antoniomagic> thanks
[12:23] <waly_> is openjdk the same as java
[12:23] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: its an open version of it
[12:24] <waly_> I want to play minecraft and it requires java
[12:24] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: openjdk should work
[12:24] <hitsujiTMO> !java | waly_
[12:25] <waly_> aha the parameter to run minecraft is like this optirun java -jar actual_path_to/Minecraft.jar
[12:25] <waly_> how would I achieve that using openjdk
[12:25] <waly_> just replace java with openjdk?
[12:25] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: make an alias, or a bash script.
[12:25] <GlemSom> AcidRain2013: I've tried those tools - they do not enforce the hardlimit. (You can keep adding to an existing file, eventhough hardlimit is reached)
[12:25] <waly_> when trying to run it using optirun java -jar actual_path_to/Minecraft.jar doesn't work, it tells me java is not found
[12:26] <waly_> also minecraft.net tells me to use oracle's jvm and not any other
[12:26] <GlemSom> ActionPa1snip: For example "gostest   +-   7021M   2000M   2000M   none       4     0     0"... Currently using 7GB out of hardlimit of 2GB.
[12:27] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: check the link above for install instructions for the different java implentations
[12:28] <waly_> yeah I am reading them hitsujiTMO
[12:29] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: I've not used Minecraft. You can install Oracle Java easily with the Webupd8 java ppa
[12:29] <waly_> yeah I am reading that
[12:30] <waly_> does that work properly though. I just don't wanna see my computer lagging
[12:30] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: yup. its just a script that pulls the java runtime from the official site
[12:30] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: makes java install and setup, yes
[12:31] <waly_> aha ok thanks both of you
[12:31] <marcolino7> #join irc.platinumirc.
[12:31] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: its not much different to the flash plugin installer etc
[12:31] <waly_> aha ok
[12:32] <chemist^> does anyone have any experience with reaver and wps cracking?
[12:32] <chemist^> is there a way to make reaver start from the last pin and go backwards?
[12:32] <chemist^> in like 9 of 10 cases, the correct pin was found at the very end... i thought it would be a great time-sparing trick
[12:32] <ActionPa1snip> !inf reaver
[12:32] <ActionPa1snip> !find reaver
[12:33] <ActionPa1snip> !info reaver
[12:33] <mooperd1> What is the easiest way to PXE boot ubuntu installations?
[12:33] <ActionPa1snip> funky
[12:33] <waly_> btw this install 64bit right?
[12:33] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: the arch of your install is detected
[12:34] <waly_> aha ok
[12:34] <chemist^> ActionPa1snip, yes...is that an answer to my question?
[12:34] <KI7MT> mooperd, The Edubuntu ISO has Linux LTSP .. is pretty easy to setup.
[12:35] <ActionPa1snip> chemist^: no, just an exclamation
[12:35] <waly_> i don't need to remove openjdk do i before doing this
[12:35] <waly_> i hope not, coz it is already installing :)
[12:35] <jost> Hi! I've got a Acer Aspire One D270 netbook here, with XUbuntu 13.10 on it. The problem: I can't log in on the graphical login mask anymore, the password is not accepted, and the touchpad does not work anymore (a connected mouse does). Logging in on a shell works as expected, so I assume that it's not a switched-on numlock or capslock. The problem occurred from one day to the other, so no idea what changed. Any ideas how to fix this?
[12:35] <chemist^> ActionPa1snip, lol ;)
[12:35] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: no, both will be present on the system, your OS will simply us /usr/bin/java  which is a symlink to the active java
[12:36] <waly_> ok thanks
[12:37] <KI7MT> mooperd1, See Info: http://edubuntu.org/documentation/ltsp-live
[12:37] <ActionPa1snip> chemist^: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue   please
[12:38] <waly_> woot its working, or atleast launching :P
[12:38] <chemist^>  ActionPa1snip lol? :) i already told you my issue, i want to reduce the time it needs to crack a wps pin with launching it from the past pin and go backwards
[12:38] <chemist^> since the majority of default PINs are near the end
[12:39] <cfhowlett> chemist^, cracking pins?  wps cracking?  not supported here ...
[12:40] <wildon> torrent methods
[12:40] <wildon> #fb
[12:40] <cfhowlett> !torrent|wildon,
[12:40] <chemist^> cfhowlett, i don't need help with cracking pins... but with running an application the way i want it to
[12:41] <cfhowlett> chemist^, best you ask the app packagers for support - they probably know more than the general ubuntu users who are on this channel.
[12:41] <ActionPa1snip> chemist^: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue   please
[12:41] <cfhowlett> ^^^ this
[12:46] <mooperd1> I am unsure whate to put as "Http Server" and "HTTP directory" in my kickstart configuration. I want the installer to download the packages from the internets....
[12:46] <mooperd1> I cant find an appropriate mirror :(
[12:46] <ikonia> mooperd1: sure you want to use kickstart with ubuntu ?
[12:46] <mooperd1> ikanobori: yep
[12:47] <leoda> Does anybody knows where the offline files in chromium are located?
[12:47] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: as in the cache?
[12:48] <ikonia> mooperd1: url --url=/blah
[12:48] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, well to lead you what i am seeking.I just download an ebook from google for offline use and i want to locate that book
[12:48] <cfhowlett> leoda, should be in /Downloads
[12:49] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: ahh, i see. I start in ~/.cache/google-chrome/
[12:50] <ikonia> !info reaver
[12:50] <loa> is there to add few command into .desktop icon?
[12:50] <loa> so for example Exec=ls; echo1;
[12:51] <loa> i need few commands to start my program
[12:51] <hitsujiTMO> loa: you should exec a script then
[12:51] <Zerai> KI7MT: and after all that work.. it won' run on the newest ubuntu lol
[12:51] <loa> =/
[12:52] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, well i found the location but how can i connect all of them
[12:53] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, i mean there is images,but there also some other stuff that i can't recognise
[12:54] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: i'm not familiar with the offline storage format so i'm not sure
[12:54] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, i was trying to just save the ebook so i can read it from anywhere
[12:54] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, i just can't download it
[12:54] <toyotapie> Everytime I log into my fresh install of ubuntu 13.10, it comes back to the login screen. Which log contains whichever error is occuring ?
[12:55] <toyotapie> xorg.0.log has nothing because X isn't crashing.
[12:55] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, i want to be able to read it in a pdf format
[12:55] <hitsujiTMO> what format is the ebook in?
[12:55] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, not open the web browser every time i want to read it
[12:56] <toyotapie> nevermind, the error is in auth.log
[12:57] <KI7MT> Zerai, You may need to compile the libs manually and link them. Whats not running?
[12:57] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, do you know how can i download the ebook?
[12:57] <Zerai> KI7MT: I t was confimed by a friend that it doesn't run on the newest kernel
[12:57] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: what format is the ebook in?
[12:57] <Zerai> KI7MT: I have everything perfect
[12:58] <cfhowlett> Zerai, do you actually have a *need* for the latest kernel?
[12:58] <KI7MT> Zerai, Ah, kerenl stuff is a whole different bag if worms.
[12:58] <Zerai> cfhowlett: no, I just installed an older ubuntu, problem solved
[12:58] <cfhowlett> Zerai, bada bing, bada boom!
[12:59] <Zerai> cfhowlett: lol yea, after all that hard work :@
[12:59] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, is an app reader,you read it directly from your browser
[12:59] <KI7MT> Zerai, cfhowlett  Or better yet, does he need the latest Ubuntu
[13:00] <misterli> Hello. I plan to use my fresh formatted WD Mybook 3TB to use on Ubuntu AND windows. Which Filesystme should be there? The Data shoudl be encrypted or password protected using the internal WD Encryption Tool or any other good working tool. Any idea?
[13:00] <cfhowlett> KI7MT, that,. too
[13:00] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: is it some sort of flash reader?
[13:00] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, yes
[13:00] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, like this http://books.google.gr/books?id=wJ-I0LwnyP4C&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false
[13:01] <daddy> i was trying to install oracle java 8 using apt but during the download the file was interrupted. how do i re-install the package by re-downloading the file?
[13:01] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, but is limited it doesn't let you to right-click,save pages,print etc
[13:01] <Zerai> cfhowlett, KI7MT: Linux localhost 3.8.0-19-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 17 18:16:28 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[13:01] <ActionPa1snip> misterli: format part to NTFS and leave free space for Ubuntu and user data, install ubuntu to the free space and leave spacve for the data partition. I'm not sure what encrypted file system you can use between both OSes as I think encrypted file systems are a massive headache
[13:01] <Zerai> cfhowlett, KI7MT: works fine :)
[13:01] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: then its almost impossible to tell what it is, could be its own format or anything
[13:02] <KI7MT> Zerai, Well as the old saying goes, if it aint broke, don't try to fix it :-) ..
[13:02] <Sujatha_Thero> guys how to install atkbd ?
[13:02] <Zerai> KI7MT: Well.. I tend to break that rule a lot
[13:02] <misterli> ActionPa1snip. The Ubuntu is installed on the main partition of my laptop. I do only store data ont he USB Disk
[13:02] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, then are there any options available?
[13:02] <KI7MT> Zerai, 3.8 kern is 12.04.. that has allot of yrs of support left.
[13:03] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: not that i can think of
[13:03] <ActionPa1snip> misterli: ok then that's a bit easier
[13:03] <misterli> But is NTFS a good choice?
[13:03] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: what isteh output of:  cat /etc/issue
[13:03] <ActionPa1snip> misterli: both OSes canread it, not sure about encryption etc
[13:03] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:   wait
[13:03] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, Anyway Thanks for you time
[13:03] <Zerai> KI7MT: it forced the upgrade to run the installs *shrugs*
[13:03] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: why would I not?
[13:04] <daddy> how can i force apt to re-download the binaries included in the script (oracla-java8-installer)?
[13:04] <nevyn> dpkg-reconfigure oracle-java8-installer
[13:04] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, the only thing that i can think is take screenshots from the ebook
[13:04] <ActionPa1snip> daddy: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get --reinstall install oracla-java8-installer
[13:04] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:  its ubuntu 13.10 /n /l
[13:04] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: why would I not wait?
[13:04] <hitsujiTMO> leoda: that sounds painful
[13:04] <daddy> thanks
[13:04] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, 210 pages
[13:04] <leoda> hitsujiTMO, hahahahaha
[13:04] <KI7MT> Zerai, Ah, the installs we trid to find the so.0 with, using so.3 ?
[13:05] <Zerai> KI7MT: But I appriciate the extensive attempt to help me get it working
[13:05] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:  coz  i am not quicker like u
[13:05] <pankaj_> hi guys
[13:05] <Zerai> KI7MT: yes, it was using .3
[13:05] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: yes but I asked for the inforation, so why would I not wait for the reply..?
[13:05] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: makes no sense at all
[13:05] <KI7MT> Zerai, My guess is, that lib, is built form a source package somewhere, most of the things I found was 2006 to 2008 time frame.
[13:06] <pankaj_> my ubuntu12.04 has xfce-desktop also installed with unity
[13:06] <Zerai> KI7MT: probably
[13:06] <Zerai> ActionPa1snip: since when did people make sense?
[13:06] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:  i posted it before , here's it again ---> ubuntu 13.10 /n /l
[13:06] <ActionPa1snip> !info atkbd
[13:06] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: I saw, just confused by the "wait" comment, its completely redundant
[13:07] <pankaj_> my ubuntu12.04 has xfce-desktop also installed with unity ,thunar and naUtilas are now fighting to open up
[13:07] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:   forgive me for my bad english
[13:07] <Sujatha_Thero> how do i add atkbd ?
[13:07] <ActionPa1snip> !find atkbd
[13:07] <Sujatha_Thero> thanks
[13:07] <cfhowlett> pankaj_, you have to specify the default file manager
[13:07] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: is it not a module in the kernel?
[13:08] <pankaj_> cfhowlett : but xfce session has thunar as default
[13:08] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:  lsmod | grep atk resulted nothing  so i think u r right
[13:09] <cfhowlett> pankaj_, true, but with multiple DE's things sometimes scramble.
[13:09] <pankaj_> cfhowlett : not just that, many things are jumbled up with this combination ; like my wallpapers  is same for both the sessions
[13:09] <pankaj_> cfhowlett : is there a way off this scramble?
[13:09] <cfhowlett> pankaj_, settings > preferrred applications > utilities > file manager
[13:10] <pankaj_> i dont use unity, can i remove it away/
[13:11] <Sujatha_Thero> ubottu:   how do i install atkbd ?
[13:11] <hitsujiTMO> !info atkbd precise
[13:11] <cfhowlett> pankaj_, not advisable.  it's integrated into ubuntu.  if you prefer xfce I'd suggest you install xubuntu-desktop or install xubuntu for the full experience
[13:11] <pankaj_> cfhowlett : i dont use unity, can i remove it away?
[13:12] <Kango> I am having trouble getting a laptop on 12.04 connected to a wifi router (no encryption). I'm running an xfce desktop and the network manager icon sound for a while and then gives up. My android phone connects fine, and I've connected to other networks from the laptop without any trouble. Any ideas?
[13:12] <freshmint> hey im on  ubuntnu 12.04 and im currently facing the problem that rhythmbox does neither playback my internet radio streams nore fetch podcast from rss urls - anyone familiar with this issue?
[13:12] <hitsujiTMO> Sujatha_Thero: anything from: sudo modprobe atkbd
[13:13] <Kango> s/sound/spins/
[13:13] <Sujatha_Thero> hitsujiTMO:   nothing from that  :(
[13:13] <pankaj_> Kango : i really dont know about wi-fi, but can u please tell me how do you open android phone on your laptop?
[13:13] <hitsujiTMO> Sujatha_Thero: as in no output?
[13:13] <TJ-> Kango: review "/var/log/syslog" when it does and look at the network-manager entries for clues
[13:14] <hitsujiTMO> Sujatha_Thero: now: lsmod | grep atkbd
[13:14] <Kango> pankaj_: no idea
[13:14] <pankaj_> Kango : but u just said u have no problem with that connection
[13:15] <Kango> TJ-: it says "association request to the driver failed" repeatedly
[13:16] <pankaj_> Kango : when i want to send a file, i right click on it > send to > android ; and it goes, but how can i do the reverse?
[13:16] <Kango> Pankaj_: I can connect my phone to my wifi router, but not to my laptop
[13:17] <pankaj_> how to view files on android device?
[13:17] <Kango> Kango_: but I think you can send files from your phone with bluetooth
[13:17] <Kango> Pankaj_: you should ask in an android forum, that is off topic here
[13:18] <hitsujiTMO> Sujatha_Thero: looks like you just need to configure it: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/saucy/man4/atkbd.4freebsd.html
[13:18] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: atkbd is built-in to the kernel. You can check with "grep atkbd /proc/kallsyms | wc -l"
[13:19] <cfhowlett> Kango, airdroid + wifi is exponentially easier
[13:20] <waly_> guys should I give sudo command to optirun
[13:21] <johncmorris> waly_: no but I think it depends
[13:21] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: no, why are you asking?
[13:21] <sjgpix> pankaj_: is this ubuntu for android?
[13:21] <waly_> lolz i don't know. I have been reading and have gotten all confused
[13:21] <waly_> I am making a bash script to run minecraft, and wanna make it appear in the shortcut sidebar
[13:21] <johncmorris> hm
[13:22] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: you shouldn't be running minecraft as root. that's what will end up happening
[13:22] <johncmorris> waly_:  got my message?
[13:22] <johncmorris> ah
[13:22] <johncmorris> waly_:  right don't do that
[13:22] <waly_> aha ok
[13:22] <johncmorris> that'll mess up the files
[13:22] <waly_> ok
[13:23] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: there is an installer for Minecraft. I believe omgubuntu has a how to
[13:23] <waly_> aha let me see that
[13:24] <ActionPa1snip> waly_: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/04/minecraft-installer-for-ubuntu
[13:24] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: I'd stop reading that particular guide because its probably written by someone who never added themselves to the bumblebee group so didn't have permission to run optirun
[13:24] <waly_> yup I am there
[13:25] <Sujatha_Thero> hitsujiTMO:  lsmod | grep xtkbd  has it , yet my keyboard still does not work :(
[13:26] <Sujatha_Thero> hitsujiTMO:   after restart lsmod | grep xtkbd lists nothing as well
[13:28] <hitsujiTMO> Sujatha_Thero: looks like you just need to configure it: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/saucy/man4/atkbd.4freebsd.html
[13:30] <waly_> ok guys how to run bash script now by just double clicking it, currently opens up in gedit
[13:30] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: how is the keyboard connected? Does it work on another system? Does another keyboard work in the same socket?
[13:31] <TJ-> hitsujiTMO: that manpage is for freebsd, not linux :)
[13:31] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ its an old laptop,   usb external keyboard works , not the onboard one
[13:32] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ its the onboard laptop keyboard which is giving trouble on ubuntu
[13:32] <hehehe> hi
[13:32] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: For the atkbd driver (which is built-in) see https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt and search for "atkbd"
[13:33] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: Do you know for sure the keyboard works at all? Has it just stopped working?
[13:33] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ  yes keyboard works well on win xp
[13:33] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: what's the make/model of laptop?
[13:34] <Sujatha_Thero> LG M1 Express Dual
[13:34] <Sujatha_Thero> CPU - centrino duo    an old laptop
[13:35] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: Can you do "pastebinit /var/log/kern.log" ?
[13:35] <hitsujiTMO> TJ-: ahh, maybe i should read them before posting them :P   I'd still assume it needs configuring tho
[13:35] <johncmorris> hello
[13:36] <cfhowlett> johncmorris, greetings
[13:36] <johncmorris> heya
[13:36] <TJ-> hitsujiTMO: atkbd is the default PS/2 style keyboard driver... should auto-configure ... assuming the keyboard controller driver is there of course!
[13:38] <hitsujiTMO> TJ-: ahh my bad
[13:39] <hehehe> Im looking to set up dual boot on a dell laptop windows/ubuntu - I have had a couple of goes - the problem seems  to be that I load straight into windows 8 when I have UEFI as my boot loader and into Grub when I use the legacy boot load BIOS     - no alongside windows option was given at install time with Ubuntu. I had to go via the other root install to a partition I had previously created.
[13:39] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: hitsujiTMO The only bug reports I can find about the keyboard not working are on OSX, where they state that is because it is a PS/2 keyboard (Mac's use USB internally I'd guess)
[13:40] <TJ-> hehehe: Sounds like you accidentally launched the Ubuntu installer in BIOS mode  and it decided to do an MBR-stype install
[13:41] <cfhowlett> TJ-, yep
[13:41] <waly_> guys is there a way to launch the scritp from an icon on the sidebar launcher
[13:42] <waly_> I have made a bash script to launch minecraft, and would like it to appear on the side bar
[13:42] <waly_> or launcher if you call it that
[13:42] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: create a .desktop file that calls the script, and put that in ~/.local/share/applications/
[13:43] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ can't paste bin it  , its more than 64k
[13:43] <TJ-> waly_: See this for how to install a custom .desktop file in your profile http://askubuntu.com/questions/78730/how-do-i-add-a-custom-launcher
[13:43] <hitsujiTMO> waly_: you can then find it in dash, and lock it to the launcher
[13:43] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: OK  ... "pastebinit /var/log/dmesg"  instead
[13:44] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ  here is the link for kern.log http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=00202144485373112064
[13:46] <constl> Hello, I've started using byobu and really like it. If though i dettach from a session and re-attach there seems to be a problem with the window size if i make it bigger. In detail, it leaves some dots. What is that?
[13:46] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ here is the dmesg http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=03788757666714419936
[13:46] <waly_> guys there is applications folder in usr/local/share
[13:47] <Sujatha_Thero> again pastie pastebin does not allow more than 64k
[13:47] <waly_> it is asking me to go to there
[13:47] <gagarin1> Hello, ive changed my defaults.list and they changes dont take place, i mean ive changed that my video should open in mplayer instead of totem, but they still open up in totem :(
[13:47] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: Looking at [   1.277535]  the keyboard controller is activated
[13:48] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: at [    1.301198] the keyboard is detected and configured
[13:48] <hehehe>  Im looking to set up dual boot on a dell laptop windows/ubuntu - I have had a couple of goes - the problem seems  to be that I load straight into windows 8 when I have UEFI as my boot loader and into Grub when I use the legacy boot load BIOS     - no alongside windows option was given at install time with Ubuntu.

[13:48] <hehehe> any ideas anyone
[13:49] <abhilash> hai can anyone pls help to install wifi over my pc
[13:49] <johncmorris> hi abhilash
[13:49] <waly_> ok nevermind just found it
[13:49] <waly_> i am supposed to launch it through terminal
[13:49] <abhilash> hii john
[13:49] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ 0.866120] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input4
[13:50] <hehehe> Install prob anyone got any ideas
[13:52] <abhilash> pls cn any body help to configure my wifi
[13:52] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: does the keyboard work at boot-up? Can you enter BIOS? If do... can you hold down shift and also get to the grub boot menu? If so, choose a Recovery option (which starts without a GUI) can you type at the console? You can do a quick test if this is a GUI issue by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 and also typing at the resulting console - if that responds *something* is working!
[13:52] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ  , yes and it works on windows XP too
[13:52] <cfhowlett> !details|abhilash,
[13:52] <Sujatha_Thero> so it has to work on Lubuntu which is the distro i am using at the moment
[13:52] <Sujatha_Thero> i have XP and Lubuntu on dual boot
[13:53] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: XP is dead on 1st April 2014
[13:53] <cfhowlett> !wifi
[13:53] <hitsujiTMO> Sujatha_Thero: is it somehow blacklisted?
[13:53] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: So the issue is that the keyboard is not working correcting in X ?
[13:53] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: may want to consider upgrading
[13:53] <hehehe>  Im looking to set up dual boot on a dell laptop windows/ubuntu - I have had a couple of goes - the problem seems  to be that I load straight into windows 8 when I have UEFI as my boot loader and into Grub when I use the legacy boot load BIOS     - no alongside windows option was given at install time with Ubuntu. I had to go via the other root install to a partition I had previously created.
[13:53] <cfhowlett> ActionPa1snip, actually - MSOFT gave it until 2015 ...
[13:53] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:  XP is sitll used to debug hardware in my country ;)
[13:54] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ exactly !
[13:54] <cfhowlett> Sujatha_Thero, o - m - g
[13:54] <ActionPa1snip> cfhowlett: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/endofsupport.aspx
[13:54] <abhilash> look i have tried many of ur docs doesnt wrk pls help me with wifi
[13:54] <ActionPa1snip> cfhowlett: Microsoft's page, 8th April 2014
[13:54] <abhilash> johc morris wer r u
[13:54] <babilen> abhilash: You really have to provide more details. Start by telling the people in *this* channel which wireless adaptor you use.
[13:54] <ActionPa1snip> Sujatha_Thero: Microsoft won't support it after 8th April 2014
[13:55] <hitsujiTMO> its just corporate clients that get the 2015 extension
[13:55] <abhilash> ralink 3290
[13:55] <cfhowlett> ActionPa1snip, ah, anti-malware support to July 2015 ...
[13:55] <Sujatha_Thero> ActionPa1snip:   i can drop XP if i can get my keyboard working on Lubuntu
[13:55] <babilen> abhilash: And I am sure that #ubuntu would also appreciate it if you could type in standard English.
[13:55] <abhilash> i am using ralink3290
[13:55] <ActionPa1snip> cfhowlett: yeah, but not the OS ;)
[13:55] <abhilash> ya i would type in standard english
[13:56] <poss> hi guys,  I am just installing ubuntu gnome, and have been doing so for about 6 hours now.   The live USB works fine, but the installed version has all sorts of problems
[13:56] <abhilash> ok babilen
[13:56] <poss> first I had to boot-repair it,  but now i have no keyboard and mouse.
[13:57] <abhilash> I am using ralink 3290 as my network driver
[13:57] <poss> I am guessing thats a video driver issue, but I can't install drivers because recovery mode has no keyboard and mouse either
[13:57] <abhilash> pls teel me how to configure my wifi driver
[13:58] <babilen> abhilash: The information you've been given in #debian is still correct in that you have to use a kernel that is newer than 3.6 (your device should be 1814:3290 which is supported by the rt2800pci module)
[13:58] <abhilash> PLease tell me hw to configure my wifi i hav my netwrk driver as ralink 3290
[13:59] <poss> I've tried changing the driver inside the liveUSB, but it won't stick.  So my question is:  is it possible to use a liveUSB to install graphics drivers for an installed version?
[13:59] <babilen> abhilash: You might want to ask people in this channel how to use that kernel. You will also have to use firmware, but IIRC that hasn't been separated on Ubuntu. Try to make it as easy for people to help you.
[13:59] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ  keyboard works on grub console
[13:59] <abhilash> how to check the kernel version is 3.66
[13:59] <babilen> abhilash: run "uname -a" and show us the output
[14:00] <abhilash> ok let me see
[14:01] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ r u around
[14:03] <abhilash> ok mine it is showing 13:43:27
[14:03] <TJ-> Sujatha_Thero: That's good. You'll need to narrow down why X isn't then... look at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for clues. I have to leave.
[14:04] <Sujatha_Thero> TJ  okay i will go through it and let you know
[14:04] <hikenboot> hello I have a machine with a gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P motherboard with a built in ATI RADEON 3000 . I tried installing the legacy fglx drivers but the machine hangs with a flashing cursor without this legacy fglrx driver it boots but has poor video (speed/acceleration) is there a fix
[14:04] <abhilash> babilen mine it is showing 13:43:27
[14:04] <hitsujiTMO> abhilash: whats the output of: uname -r
[14:04] <hikenboot> same problem on my similar system with xubuntu
[14:05] <hikenboot> nothing is logged in logs that I can find
[14:05] <hitsujiTMO> hikenboot: you'd be probably best to stick with the open drivers with that card
[14:06] <babilen> abhilash: That can't be the output of the "uname -a" command. Please paste your exactl command and its output to http://paste.ubuntu.com

[14:06] <hikenboot> is there a way to get video acceleration with the open driver?
[14:07] <hitsujiTMO> hikenboot: 3d acceleration should be in the open driver for that card. There'll be considerable inprovments to it in 14.04 too
[14:07] <hikenboot> when is 14.04 coming out
[14:08] <abhilash> Linux abhilash-HP-ProBook-4440s 3.2.0-55-generic #85-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 2 13:43:27 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[14:08] <hitsujiTMO> hikenboot: april
[14:08] <hikenboot> also i have no luck in getting open driver to have video acceleration properties in chrome and firefox
[14:08] <poss> so to rephrase:  how do you install graphics drivers if you can't access recovery mode?
[14:08] <p1001> hello - i have a small issue somewhat new user to linux, can anyone help?
[14:08] <abhilash> this was the output
[14:08] <abhilash> Linux abhilash-HP-ProBook-4440s 3.2.0-55-generic #85-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 2 13:43:27 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[14:08] <hikenboot> got a link to a good doc on it hitsujiTMO
[14:09] <hitsujiTMO> hikenboot: the 2d acceleration is better in the open drivers then the proprietary driver, so you'll have even worse luck with fglrx most likely.
[14:09] <poss> p1001, just ask your question, and if you're lucky someone will spend their time answering :)
[14:09] <babilen> abhilash: Okay, so you are using a 3.2.0 kernel -- You have to upgrade that kernel, but I am not sure how to do that on Ubuntu.
[14:09] <hikenboot> this is frustraiting I wish I could afford a good card
[14:09] <abhilash> how to do it please help
[14:09] <p1001> i tried to use os uninstaller to remove my windows partition on my desktop --- after doing so, my ubuntu instalation seems to have dissapeared
[14:09] <babilen> How could one upgrade a kernel on Ubuntu to a newer version in a supported way?
[14:09] <p1001> as in: the os is still there but all my files and programs are gone
[14:10] <hitsujiTMO> hikenboot: I don't i'm afraid. for the logs, have you looked in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmesg?
[14:10] <p1001> any help would be great! thank you
[14:10] <hikenboot> yes it just hangs
[14:10] <hikenboot> cant get to any consoles
[14:10] <hitsujiTMO> !text | hikenboot give this a go to get cli
[14:11] <poss> p1001, which uninstaller did you run?
[14:11] <hikenboot> there is one line I dont think is related to the hanging incident that says it cant load fglrx something .so
[14:11] <p1001> os uninstaller
[14:11] <p1001> let me find the link
[14:11] <hikenboot> hitsujiTMO, tried that, logs show nothing
[14:11] <p1001> i currently have my desktop to repare grub
[14:11] <waly_> guys minecraft doesn't load through optirun :X
[14:12] <p1001> but it is handing on the screen after words for sometime now
[14:12] <waly_> it just stays in the loader and just keeps waiting and when I close it, it tells me there was a problem with the graphic something
[14:12] <pi2> exit
[14:12] <hitsujiTMO> hikenboot: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:12] <waly_> after that it won't open at all with optirun
[14:12] <waly_> I have to relog
[14:12] <waly_> to make it run for the first time
[14:12] <abhilash> How could one upgrade a kernel on Ubuntu to a newer version in a supported way?
[14:13] <hikenboot> hitsujiTMO, I will try that I will have to boot from a live cd and pastebinit...is there any particular pastebin site you wish me to use?
[14:13] <hitsujiTMO> abhilash: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[14:13] <hitsujiTMO> hikenboot: paste.ubuntu.com is always good
[14:13] <hikenboot> thanks give me a few minutes
[14:15] <GlemSom> I've setup group quota on an ext4 filesystem. Currently I've cat'ed from /dev/zero into a file, and reached OVER my hard limit... I cannot append to other files owned by the group, but I can still append to the file that went over the top of the hard limit. Is this intented behaivior ?
[14:16] <hitsujiTMO> GlemSom: ##linux may also be helpful for such a question
[14:16] <p1001> does anyone know if the OS-uninstaller resets your ubuntu installation when you try to unintsall another os on the drive
[14:16] <GlemSom> hitsujiTMO: Indeed - but wondered if it's a know Ubuntu feature
[14:17] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: never heard of it, sounds dodgy, wouldn't be supported here
[14:17] <p1001> it is on the official ubuntu page:
[14:17] <p1001> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OS-Uninstaller
[14:17] <waly_> guys can you help me please ?(
[14:17] <p1001> i went there to uninstall windows
[14:17] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: oops, my bad
[14:18] <p1001> ***i went there to find out use that app to unsinstall
[14:18] <p1001> no worries
[14:18] <p1001> currently at work would love to have my source and ide back without having to do a full clone
[14:18] <p1001> and install my ide's again
[14:18] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: are you on a live cd now?
[14:18] <waly_> when I open minecraft.jar using optirun, it just loads the launcher but won't let me click on play button, it keeps saying loading versions
[14:18] <p1001> no thats the weird part
[14:18] <p1001> i used the app
[14:18] <p1001> and restarted my comp (in ubuntu)
[14:18] <waly_> but when launched without optirun, it lets me launch it
[14:19] <p1001> no errors it did not ask me to restart
[14:19] <p1001> when i did
[14:19] <p1001> upon booting it was like a fresh install of ubunut
[14:19] <waly_> if I close it while it was running in optirun (and stuck at loading versions) I get an error
[14:19] <glitsj16> poss: you could chroot into your installed system from the liveUSB and install the driver that way, look at http://www.tuxgarage.com/2011/07/creating-chroot-ubuntu.html for how to create a chroot
[14:19] <poss> thankyou glitsj16
[14:19] <p1001> rn: i booted into recovery and the grub installer hung for ~20 minutes and now the screen is black
[14:20] <p1001> afraid to hard reset -- files not critical but gigantic pain to recover
[14:20] <waly_> then I will need to restart my computer to make it run again with optirun
[14:20] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: can you boot a !reisub | p1001
[14:20] <hitsujiTMO> !reisub | p1001
[14:21] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: can you try booting a live cd then
[14:22] <babilen> ubottu: mainline
[14:22] <anandjeyahar> any idea which package is more efficient sysstat http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/sysstat
[14:22] <anandjeyahar> or atsar?
[14:22] <p1001> live cd (will flash drive work?)
[14:22] <p1001> also something intersting
[14:22] <babilen> abhilash: ^^^^ (see above for mainline kernels, can't tell you how well supported they are by Ubuntu)
[14:22] <p1001> i only have 500gb space on harddrive
[14:22] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: well yup that too
[14:22] <p1001> yet
[14:23] <babilen> ubottu: mainline | abhilash
[14:23] <p1001> in system details

[14:23] <daum_> hey guys - anyone have any idea why the audio on my laptop has a static noise always coming from it?  It happens even when i have headphones in on it (it just comes through the headphones then)
[14:23] <p1001> udev 3.9g
[14:23] <anandjeyahar> any idea how much system load sysstat can cause on a ubunte 10.04 server
[14:23] <hitsujiTMO> !enter | p1001
[14:23] <babilen> If anybody could comment on the viability of using a mainline kernel on Ubuntu that would be much appreciated :)
[14:23] <p1001> none 3.9g
[14:23] <p1001> also -- what should i do after booting on live usb
[14:24] <p1001> sry about that! will do
[14:24] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: come back here and we can start looking at what state your system is in
[14:25] <allu2> babilen: personally I can't see much reason to unless you want to try some very new features not yet in the Ubuntu kernel
[14:26] <p1001> sure - is live usb nessary? ubunu is still booting rn
[14:26] <p1001> i am downloading now
[14:26] <glitsj16> daum_: might be your (internal) mic boost causing interference, try to lower its volume and see if that improves things
[14:27] <daum_> glitsj16, hm mic, micboost are all set to 0
[14:28] <daum_> ah got it was pcm
[14:28] <daum_> hah
[14:28] <daum_> thanks!
[14:28] <kongthap> i'm watching a SHA-1 clip, printf "blob 12\000Hello World\n" | shasum , 12 is bytes right?, and why there is 000 in front of Hello World?
[14:29] <glitsj16> daum_: you're welcome, enjoy the audio
[14:29] <babilen> allu2: Well, hardware support is certainly an option. Are there others?
[14:30] <p1001> one error message i am getting when botting on affected machine:
[14:30] <p1001> /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 is not ready yet
[14:31] <babilen> allu2: The reason I am asking is because I am trying to help abhilash with his wireless adaptor (ralink 1814:3290, supported by rt2800pci since Linux 3.6) - And there doesn't seem to be a well supported way to install newer kernels on Ubuntu (as opposed to Debian) which i find slightly surprising
[14:32] <babilen> allu2: Hence my question :)
[14:32] <xangua> babilen: If you use ubuntu precise, you can install newer kernels and graphic drivers from the official repository}
[14:33] <hitsujiTMO> kongthap: you shoud be asking this in #bash, but \0 is interpretted as an octal char. so in this case: printf "blob 12\0Hello World\n" it will work, as \0H is an invalid octal char, so it knows its the octal 0, so its the null char, but if the next char was supposed to be 1 then: printf "blob 12\01Hello World\n" then \01 would have been interpretted as \001 instead of \000 and 1. So \000 is just being explicit about the char value so the fo
[14:33] <hitsujiTMO> llowing char doesn't get accidentally interpretted as part of the octal value
[14:33] <babilen> xangua: As I said: I am trying to help abhilash (who unfortunately asked in #debian first) to solve his/her problem. I have no idea which version of Ubuntu is in use there, but abhilash might be able to answer that.
[14:33] <babilen> abhilash: Which version of Ubuntu do you use?
[14:34] <babilen> xangua: How would a newer kernel be installed in that that case? Do you simply provide suitable linux-image-foo-XXXX packages in the normal precise repos?
[14:34] <xangua> babilen: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[14:34] <kongthap> hitsujiTMO,  oh too hard for me, but thanks anyway :)
[14:35] <babilen> abhilash: ^^^^
[14:35] <babilen> xangua: Ta!
[14:35] <hitsujiTMO> p1001: o.O. maybe its messed up your grub config
[14:36] <babilen> abhilash: still there?
[14:36] <poss> thanks for the help, off to restart

[14:42] <p1001> hi i am wondering why os-unsinstaller would remove all my ubuntu files after removing windows 7 partitions
[14:42] <p1001> i am booted into ubuntu on the affected machine
[14:44] <p1001> fdisk -l reveals: Disk /dev/mapper/cryptswap2 doesn't contain a valid partition table
[14:45] <p1001> Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table
[14:47] <p1001> anyone can help?
[14:48] <p1001> trying to figure out why os-uninstaller removed all my ubuntu files when i selected to remove windows partition
[14:49] <Daghdha> hi, i made a backup of my system drive using partimage. Now i want to get a single file from it, are there any tools for that?
[14:50] <hitsujiTMO> Daghdha: is it a raw image or is it compressed?
[14:52] <Daghdha> I think it's probably compressed
[14:52] <Daghdha> I mean, that would be smart space wise so i probably did that.
[14:52] <hitsujiTMO> Daghdha: ahh, it seems it has its own format, you'd have to see if they provide tools for it, http://www.partimage.org/Main_Page
[14:53] <Daghdha> well, allow me to be realistic here and .. probably no tools for it. I shall check it out though
[14:54] <Daghdha> hmm i could restore it to another partition..
[14:55] <Daghdha> yes, and i have a 500 something gb USB disk at my folks
[14:55] <Daghdha> Gonna pick that up and just restore it to that
[15:07] <rcw2> is it normal for Xorg to hover around 40% cpu usage?
[15:08] <ubuntu22> Every time I log in I have to reset my settings for my laptop and two monitors in the AMD Catalyst Control Center.  Is there any way to save my settings so I don't have to adjust it every time?
[15:10] <Daghdha> Is there Catalyst CC in ubuntu/linux? didn't know that. It is one of those things in windows i prefer not to install because it causes more problems than benefits.
[15:11] <ubuntu22> Daghdha, yes I know, but I think it's required when using additional drivers.
[15:14] <kostkon> rcw2, no, the normal is around 1 to 4% i'd say
[15:15] <Daghdha> sigh.. why can't there just be an unmount command
[15:16] <Daghdha> i mean .. 1 char. another byte saved i guess
[15:18] <Anton__> hey guys how do i replace my default route+
[15:22] <rcw2> kostkon, it hovers around 40% when i am using youtube in firefox, otherwise, its below 5%
[15:22] <rcw2> any troubleshooting tips here
[15:23] <kostkon> rcw2, probably flash vids/ads and js effects
[15:24] <kostkon> rcw2, are causing the x cpu usage spikes
[15:31] <rcw2> kostkon, does the info i've given you sound not unusual for this setup: AMD E-240 1.5 GHz, AMD Radeon HD 6310, 6gb ram.

[15:34] <henrylinux> "sudo blkid | pastebinit"
[15:35] <henrylinux> check 1 2 :)
[15:36] <Hello123> It says I need a component called universe
[15:36] <Hello123> I tried to subo apt-get install universe
[15:36] <Hello123> it doesn't exist
[15:37] <Hello123> I have an idea of how to fix my problem actually, but I'd love to run it by you before attempting it.
[15:37] <henrylinux> please do tell
[15:38] <henrylinux> Hello123, about adding a rep source: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[15:39] <_Myself> Greetings
[15:39] <Hello123> The last comment I made on my askubuntu thread talks about how I chose "/" as the mount point when I installed Ubuntu. I presume this just means the root of the drive? I also had to make a swapfile partition. On the root of my drive are a bunch of folders and then 5 files. "bootmgr", "BOOTNXT", "hiberfil.sys", "pagefile.sys" and "swapfile.sys". Cou
[15:39] <Hello123> ld deleting these 5 or some of these files fix the issue?
[15:40] <Daghdha> sounds very windowsy those files
[15:40] <_Myself> Yes ._.
[15:40] <Daghdha> the .sys ones i mean
[15:41] <henrylinux> ... you didn't specify an extra /boot during installation?
[15:41] <Hello123> I didn't
[15:41] <henrylinux> also, the following way is correct: "/ is root"
[15:41] <henrylinux> not that I particularly "concern" my self with that, just for you own better understanding I hope
[15:41] <Hello123> Understood, thanks
[15:42] <Hello123> Oh wait
[15:42] <Hello123> It's henry!
[15:42] <Hello123> Thanks for continuing to help
[15:42] <henrylinux> so anyway, please do paste the output of "sudo blkid" and "sudo lsblk" to paste.ubuntu.com
[15:42] <henrylinux> np :)
[15:43] <henrylinux> hope I get some magic intrahweb points or something after that
[15:44]  * compdoc gives henrylinux two, non-magic intrahweb points
[15:44] <henrylinux> F#%& YES
[15:44] <henrylinux> ... and by saying this, I do realize I am way too moved by inane intrahweb pionts nowadays -.-
[15:45] <henrylinux> to everyone reading along, please do chime in if you think our dear friend Hello123 could receive your help as well :)
[15:45] <Peyam> My ubuntu cant find my wifi. it shows all wifis around but not mine
[15:45] <Hello123> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6768553
[15:47] <Hello123> I have some photos of my partitions and folders too if they would help? I can't post them on the askubuntu page because I need 10 rep to post more than 2 photos.
[15:47] <henrylinux> so far so good...
[15:47] <henrylinux> please also post "sudo lsblk" to paste.ubuntu.com :)
[15:48] <henrylinux> yep askubuntu.com is that way. but you could upload some pics to imgur.com and then include the links but like I said let's have the discussion here.
[15:48] <nightdemon666> what does lsblk do? just curious... too lazy to log into ssh server :-/
[15:48] <Hello123> I don't get a paste.ubuntu link when doing sudo lsblk
[15:48] <Hello123> I'm on a different computer on this irc
[15:49] <Hello123> my laptop is where I'm having the issues
[15:49] <Hello123> running ubuntu on a live usb at the moment
[15:49] <henrylinux> i see
[15:49] <henrylinux> wait, are you on your laptop or on the other machine ?
[15:49] <nightdemon666> Hello123, whats your problem? i just got in here...
[15:50] <Hello123> Right now, on IRC, I am on my desktop. My issues are on my laptop which has ubuntu on a live usb running
[15:50] <henrylinux> nightdemon666, lsblk  lists information about all or the specified block devices.  The lsblk command reads the sysfs filesystem to gather information.
[15:50] <Hello123> Hi nightdemon
[15:50] <Hello123> I'm having problems deleting grub as well as ubuntu entries in my BIOS. Conventional fixes don't seem to work. I have an askubuntu thread where a possible fix is discussed but some questions are left unanswered. http://askubuntu.com/questions/406859/how-do-i-completely-destroy-grub-ubuntu-bios-entry-conventiona...
[15:51] <nightdemon666> Hello123, why do you want to delete grub?
[15:52] <henrylinux> Hello123, please run "sudo blkid" on the laptop on which you have the GRUB problems and booted into the live usb
[15:52] <Hello123> I'm trying to completely remove any trace of ubuntu from my laptop. Windows will boot now without issue, but the remnants of grub and ubuntu persist which is annoying. I plan to install again in the future on a seperate drive.
[15:52] <nightdemon666> Hello123, do you have a windows 8.1 recovery partition or disk, or can you load a windows 8.1 recovery image on flash drive?
[15:53] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: grup doesn't put entries into a bios. do you mean the uefi boot manager?
[15:53] <Hello123> I actually have don't have right now, I will have access to it again in a couple of weeks, but for now I don't have it. Windows 8 lets me do an advanced reboot where I can access command prompt though
[15:54] <Hello123> No I mean the BIOS, check the askubuntu page and I posted a photo
[15:54] <Hello123> https://www.dropbox.com/s/vgh5f2kodxldzsz/2014-01-17%2015.51.31.jpg
[15:54] <Hello123> there is sudo lsblk
[15:55] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: just looked. you have UEFI not BIOS. 2 different things. Did you remove the grub bootstrap from the EFI system partition?
[15:55] <Jinxed-> any bootable forms of linux support the r9
[15:55] <Hello123> Here is the sudo blkid https://www.dropbox.com/s/9yq5q1wmkxqifmm/2014-01-17%2015.55.17.jpg
[15:56] <soro> wc/
[15:56] <Hello123> What does that mean hitsuji? excuse my inexperience.
[15:56] <gr33n7007h> Is grub 2.00 UEFI?
[15:56] <Hello123> I have an efi system partition when I look on windows, but I can't see it on ubuntu
[15:57] <Hello123> I didn't specifically delete it though, so no
[15:57] <henrylinux> hitsujiTMO, Hello123 is using UEFI/BIOS synonymously  I think
[15:57] <hitsujiTMO> gr33n7007h: there's 2 builds. grub-efi-amd64 for uefi, and grub-pc for bios
[15:57] <Left_Turn> hey i forgot.. how can i set /home/bin as the dir for apt-get to install to for 1 installation?
[15:57] <Hello123> I am using them interchangeably, sorry
[15:57] <gr33n7007h> hitsujiTMO, ah cool that's answered my question then, cheers!
[15:58] <henrylinux> Hello123, I think hitsujiTMO meant if you removed GRUB files from the EFI partition
[15:58] <Hello123> i haven't done that
[15:58] <Hello123> How do I do that?
[15:58] <Hello123> I did try every other fix I could find on the internet though
[15:59] <Hello123> including fixing the mbr
[15:59] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo mkdir /mnt/efi && sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/efi && ls -l /mnt/efi | pastebinit
[15:59] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: you don't have an mbr so fixmbr isn't going to do anything
[15:59] <Samil> hi all. I’ve set up a custom keyboard layout with xmodmap on ubuntu 13.10 (I use gnome3 flashback). however, I have not understood how to load it automatically, yet. any help?
[16:00] <Hello123> I suspected as much, what is an MBR? It doesn't exist on windows 8 or what?
[16:00] <henrylinux> MBR: Master Boot Record
[16:00] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: mbr is the master boot record, it store the partition table and boot strap in the legacy bios systems
[16:01] <henrylinux> and about the new UEFI system: http://technet.microsoft.com/library/dd744301%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
[16:01] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: uefi instead uses a gpt partition table and an efi system partition
[16:01] <Samil> cannot anyone help me? :/
[16:02] <nightdemon666> Hello123, have you read this link and performed the recommendations? http://askubuntu.com/questions/343432/how-to-uninstall-ubuntu-and-grub-from-pre-installed-windows-8
[16:03] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: can you run the command i typed above and paste the link here
[16:03] <henrylinux> Hello123, to install pastebinit, add the "universe" sources as you can see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[16:03] <Hello123> nightdemon666, so if I remove the ubuntu entry, will grub actually be removed or is it just masked?
[16:03] <henrylinux> hitsujiTMO, he/she had problems with using pastebinit before
[16:03] <hitsujiTMO> ahh,
[16:03] <Hello123> I installed pastebinit already
[16:03] <henrylinux> oh ok
[16:03] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: then please run: sudo mkdir /mnt/efi && sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/efi && ls -l /mnt/efi | pastebinit
[16:04] <Hello123> mount: can't find /dev/sda2/mnt/efi in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[16:04] <henrylinux> space!
[16:04] <henrylinux> there was a space between /dev/sda AND /mnt/efi
[16:04] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: you forgot a space
[16:04] <Hello123> Damn
[16:05] <Hello123> mkdir: cannot create directory '/mnt/efi': File exists
[16:06] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: then please run: sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/efi && ls -l /mnt/efi | pastebinit
[16:06] <sruz25> hi there, I have problem with deleting file
[16:06] <Hello123> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6768667
[16:06] <hitsujiTMO> !details | sruz25
[16:07] <sruz25> it's 'foo, bar' w/o apostrophes
[16:07] <sruz25> and windows somehow corrupted it
[16:07] <sruz25> it was directory moved from ext2 to ntfs in linux
[16:07] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: ls -l /mnt/efi/EFI | pastebinit
[16:08] <sruz25> and I tried to copy it via cmd.exe and windows somehow corrupted it
[16:08] <sruz25> (that was later on, just to some dir next to it)
[16:09] <hitsujiTMO> sruz25: are you in linux now?
[16:09] <sruz25> yes
[16:09] <hitsujiTMO> sruz25: can you run: ls -l /path/to/file
[16:09] <sruz25> there are some valid chars in it, but most is rubbish
[16:09] <sruz25> (when I cat the file)
[16:10] <Hello123> mount: /dev/sda2 already mounted or /mnt/efi busy
[16:10] <dondopa> Are there Text to speech programsI can use to make my own audiobooks?
[16:10] <sruz25> -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1059 led 15 14:24 Foo, bar
[16:10] <dondopa> on Ubuntu?
[16:10] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: just: ls -l /mnt/efi/EFI | pastebinit
[16:10] <Hello123> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda2 is already mounted on /mnt/efi
[16:10] <Hello123> ah ok
[16:10] <nightdemon666> Hellow123 you already mounted /dev/sda2 we want to see the contents on /mnt/efi/EFI
[16:11] <hitsujiTMO> sruz25: sounds like a corrupted file system. what type of file was it originally?
[16:12] <sruz25> it was directory
[16:12] <sruz25> I think I tried cd into it while in windows (via cmd.exe)
[16:12] <Hello123> Is: command not found
[16:12] <nightdemon666> sruz25, you wont be able to get the output in plain english like you would expect unless the file is a plain text file
[16:12] <henrylinux> it's and l
[16:12] <Hello123> You are trying to send an empty document, exiting.
[16:13] <henrylinux> it's a little L :)
[16:13] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: just: ls -l /mnt/efi/EFI | pastebinit              as in L
[16:13] <nightdemon666> hello123 it is ls like LS but ls
[16:13] <Hello123> ah!
[16:13] <Hello123> I'm sorry
[16:13] <henrylinux> i was first guys
[16:13] <henrylinux> ha.
[16:13] <nightdemon666> lol
[16:13] <Hello123> paste.ubunt.com/6768698
[16:13] <Hello123> paste.ubuntu.com/6768698
[16:13] <nightdemon666> this is cute, linux noob just learning to craw throught the filesystem ;)
[16:13] <hitsujiTMO> sruz25: ahh. what happens for: rm -r 'Foo, bar'
[16:14] <Hello123> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6768698
[16:14] <nightdemon666> *crawl
[16:14] <henrylinux> yeah it kind of is
[16:14] <henrylinux> THERE YOU GO I KNEW IT!!!!111eleven
[16:14] <henrylinux> there are still GRUB-related files
[16:14] <henrylinux> I assume. haven't seen what's in /ubuntu yet
[16:14] <nightdemon666> yep, remove the ubuntu directory
[16:14] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: sudo rm -r /mnt/efi/EFI/ubuntu
[16:14] <sruz25> cannot remove, No such file or directory
[16:15] <henrylinux> huh?
[16:15] <henrylinux> oh nvm
[16:15] <henrylinux> wrong user
[16:15] <Hello123> Ok I did that
[16:15] <Hello123> It didn't say anything afterwards
[16:15] <henrylinux> it never does
[16:15] <hitsujiTMO> sruz25: corrupted file system then. run chkdsk on the drive in windows
[16:15] <Hello123> Should I reboot and check my UEFI?
[16:15] <henrylinux> one more thing
[16:15] <nightdemon666> henrylinux, you didnt want to let hello123 show us what was in the ubuntu directory?
[16:15] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: sudo apt-get install efibootmgr
[16:16] <sruz25> rm -rf doesn't have any objections, but doesn't delete it...
[16:16] <henrylinux> nightdemon666, no, I did not not say that...? hitsu wrote the command
[16:16] <sruz25> I'll run the chkdsk than, thx
[16:16] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: sudo efibootmgr | pastebinit
[16:16] <Hello123> I have the efibootmgr thing, henry helped me through that on askubuntu
[16:16] <Hello123> ok
[16:16] <nightdemon666> may have been safer to do a sudo mv /mnt/efi/EFI/ubuntu ~/ or something like that. make a copy just in case
[16:16] <henrylinux> Hello123, yes and then run sudo efibootmgr | pastebinit
[16:16] <Peyam> My ubuntu cant find my wifi. it shows all wifis around but not mine
[16:16] <henrylinux> oh right you do already
[16:17] <Hello123> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6768720
[16:17] <nightdemon666> lol, my bad henrylinux
[16:17] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: sudo efibootmgr -Bb 000A
[16:18] <nightdemon666> so that ubuntu entry should be removed if the directory is removed correct?
[16:18] <henrylinux> nightdemon666, np
[16:18] <Hello123> Ok, all done. Should I try and reboot now to check if it still exists in the UEFI?
[16:18] <henrylinux> nightdemon666, you usually can remove any entry if you please. UEFI should auto-detect .efi files on the EFI partition and list them as boot options
[16:18] <hitsujiTMO> Hello123: yup
[16:19] <henrylinux> nightdemon666, if you hit the magic key on startup early enough, to get to that selection screen where you can choose which entry to boot
[16:19] <henrylinux> Hello123, yup
[16:19] <henrylinux> Hello123, it's been a pleasure. I'll take cc only.
[16:19] <DannyJ> hello
[16:19] <henrylinux> hello
[16:20] <Hello123> It worked. Thank you very much.
[16:20] <hitsujiTMO> !yay | Hello123
[16:21] <Hello123> You people are the kindest support I've ever experienced :) Really, thanks you very much henrylinux, hitsujiTMO and nightdemon666.
[16:22] <henrylinux> Hello123, glad to read that it works now
[16:22] <henrylinux> Hello123, well, it's all for those magic points... one day, one day, we can cash in.
[16:22] <henrylinux> Hello123, ok seriously some of us just want to help sometimes. i was happy to
[16:22] <Hello123> Do any of you take donations? I'm sure I could spare a couple of quid
[16:23] <nightdemon666> fantastic hello123 :-) so i guess all it takes is removing the directory from efi partition and install efibootmgr to remove the related entry as well :-) I wonder if just removing the entry via efibootmgr is enough, or if both parts must be done...

[16:27] <Swahili> When people say, something like: I'll have 2x 2TB for data storage and 2x 500GB for Operating system. Where can I learn to do that ?
[16:28] <Myrtti> to do what?
[16:29] <Swahili> Myrtti: Hi! I reckon we need to create partitions, in different physical hard drives, etc. but what's data storage /home ?
[16:29] <Swahili> what's O/S, / and /boot ?
[16:29] <Swahili> I'd like to find where I can get this answers, so I can understand what to do.
[16:30] <hitsujiTMO> !fhs | Swahili
[16:30] <Swahili> hitsujiTMO: Thanks
[16:31] <kostkon> !partitions | Swahili
[16:35] <Swahili> Q: I'd like to have a directory where all data files my colleges work on, that is shared between all users. So, I guess I would first create a userGroup/userGroup get /home/userGroup and then create a shared dir /home/userGroup/foo and then add users to userGroup ?
[16:38] <Lucid_Lynx> Hi, usually since i installed Ubuntu, i don´t have any problems concerning sound, but now something is bugging me..., the beep sound of the `ping`-command doesn´t produceses any beep or sound (ping -a -c4 192.168.1.1) on my Notebook..How do i enable it ?
[16:39] <hitsujiTMO> Swahili: create a group sharedgroup: sudo groupadd sharedgroup                   create a directory for the group: sudo mkdir /home/sharedgroup                 change group ownerships for that dir: sudo chown root:sharedgroup /home/sharedgroup        set the guid bit for the golder and make it group writable: sudo chmod g+ws /home/sharedgroup                  add everyone who needs to be in the group to sharedgroup               then anyone
[16:39] <hitsujiTMO>  in that group can write to /home/sharedgroup     note: their umask should be 0002 or you'll run into issues

[16:49] <Ackis> I just got a voip number, any recommendations on software for a headless server or is it easier to just set up voip software on the client PC's?

[17:01] <fer755> ABC-XYZ all ubuntu servers img dont have display managers
[17:01] <Kazaka> I got noupdater as 'true' in my launch.ini, it's active. I downloaded the SystemUpdate for my dashboard, renamed it as $SystemUpdate but when I restart...it doesn't detect? My USB isn't formatted as XBOX 360 storage, it's just normal (and it's FAT32 though)
[17:02] <Rexter> wow, quiet in here today.
[17:03] <Rexter> I'm looking for some help. I need ubuntu to auso-mount my NTFS partition that is where my user data is, shared with Windows on a dual boot syste.
[17:03] <hitsujiTMO> Kazaka: are you looking for xbox 360 support?
[17:04] <Kazaka> hitsujiTMO: yes.
[17:04] <Kazaka> is there any specific channel for it, hitsujitmo?
[17:04] <hitsujiTMO> Kazaka: then try ##xbox maybe. this is for ubuntu
[17:05] <hitsujiTMO> !alis | Kazaka search for channels with this
[17:05] <hitsujiTMO> !fstab | Rexter
[17:05] <actionparsnip> Rexter: could add an entry in /etc/fstab

[17:09] <fego> sorry it is not an answer. keystroke fail.
[17:09] <fego> appologies.

[17:13] <DannyJ> its ok
[17:13] <DannyJ> haha but yes lets move it over to there
[17:13] <shambat> I'm trying to use the python interpreter, but I seem to be pointing to the wrong one when I just type "python". "which python" reveals that I'm using "/opt/splunk/bin/python", when I want to use "/usr/bin/python" how can I change "python" to point to the right place?
[17:15] <`Gin> "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages", I have tried everything related on the internet to resolve this/identify which packages are held/broken
[17:15] <`Gin> nothing works, I am stuck :-(
[17:16] <Pumpkin-> shambat: reorder your PATH env variable (so /usr/bin comes before /opt/splunk/bin), or just always be explicit.
[17:17] <shambat> Pumpkin-: ok lemme try
[17:19] <`Gin> I need to fix broken packages before I can install a new package, however I cant fix broken packages because there are packages on hold, however I can't find which packages are on hold
[17:20] <shambat> Pumpkin-: where do I edit the order? I dont see any path information in the .bashrc file
[17:20] <fer755> 'Gin try to purge them
[17:20] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: pastebin the full output of: sudo apt-get -f install
[17:21] <Pumpkin-> I dunno, that really is system specific. Just check with echo $PATH that is the actual problem (I'm 99% sure it is).
[17:22] <hitsujiTMO> shambat: pastebin the contents of /etc/environment
[17:22] <shambat> Pumpkin-: changing the order worked at least
[17:22] <rigo88> hi. i just downloaded the server 13.10 x64, i start the installer choose F4 install minimal system, press enter, choose install ubuntu server and the language screen comes after this i dont have keyboard.
[17:22] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: save the pastebin, its 0/0/0
[17:23] <shambat> hitsujiTMO: http://bpaste.net/show/riPpafa5wFmwSF9SQEgs/
[17:23] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: save the pastebin, its "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded."
[17:23] <shambat> nothing about opt/splunk there
[17:23] <rigo88> tried 2 keyboards. (usb)
[17:23] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: there should be errors about the conflicts. no?
[17:23] <rigo88> tried all the slots
[17:23] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO, i will pastebin everything I have and tried, one second
[17:24] <grenky> `Gin: which package?
[17:24] <hitsujiTMO> shambat: what about /etc/profile
[17:25] <shambat> hitsujiTMO: not there either
[17:25] <`Gin> grenky: tilemill, I had it installed, installed QGIS (nightmare!), it uninstalled tilemill,
[17:26] <`Gin> grenky: now I am trying to install tilemill, but libmapnik dependency wont install due to the error
[17:26] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: are you using PPAs?
[17:26] <rigo88> please?
[17:26] <hitsujiTMO> shambat: next check ~/.profile
[17:27] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: does the same issue occur with the desktop iso?
[17:28] <rigo88> better try. dont know. brb
[17:28] <rigo88> latest debian installer works fine
[17:28] <shambat> hitsujiTMO: http://bpaste.net/show/0LgmI69Y3HnNFNvSCQO5/  <--- there is this here ...
[17:28] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: I don't even know what I used to install QGIS, there is about 10 different ways to install it, I specifically needed version 1.9>. Default installed 1.7, but 2.0.1 was available via the ubuntugis ppa
[17:28] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: I am using the ubuntugis ppa right now, as I am running 2.0.1, but it uninstalled tilemill when installing
[17:29] <Rexter> actionparsnip, how do I pull a list of drives available for mount
[17:29] <shambat> I dont have a bin fodler in my home though
[17:29] <hitsujiTMO> shambat: thats normal. seems splunk is injecting the path in some dodgy non standard way
[17:29] <shambat> :(
[17:29] <actionparsnip> Rexter: sudo fdisk -l
[17:29] <shambat> guess I can ask the Splunk guys if they know
[17:30] <`Gin> here is a paste bin of various errors/bits I have tried http://pastebin.ca/2554799
[17:30] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: ppa then. you might want to report the issue to the ppa maintainers. Seems to be a conflict issue
[17:31] <grenky> `Gin: take a look at this https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/wiki/UbuntuInstallation
[17:32] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: whats the output of: apt-cache policy libmapnik
[17:33] <`Gin> grenky: problem is I can't install anything as I have a broken packages error,
[17:33] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: now updating my pastebin,
[17:33] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.ca/2554802
[17:34] <rigo88> hitsujiTMO: i try to create the installer stick again
[17:34] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: conflicts between 2 different ppas
[17:35] <grenky> `Gin: Did you tryed adding the ppa and installing libmapnik. I had the same problem with an other package. This method solved my problem.
[17:35] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: but does the same issue occur with the ubuntu desktop iso?
[17:36] <`Gin> grenky: yup, can't install it, "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."
[17:36] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: I just added the second PPA, from grenky's link
[17:37] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: did not work previously,
[17:37] <anykey> Hey all. I might come into the situation where I have to... share files... with a windows machine. Is it still vfat or nothing?
[17:37] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: adding more ppas isn't going to solve a ppa conflict
[17:38] <hitsujiTMO> anykey: or ntfs
[17:38] <grenky> `Gin:  1. add ppa (seems like you already did it) 2.update 2. install libmapnik
[17:38] <anykey> hmm.
[17:39] <`Gin> grenky: done, done, can't install libmapnik: "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[17:39] <rigo88> hitsujiTMO: no. not with 13.04 (?) but it does not have that CLI-like installer interface.
[17:39] <anykey> when I last tried, kernel 2.4.19 or somethin', NTFS was flaky at best
[17:39] <hitsujiTMO> grenky: he has that ppa installed already. you can see from the apt-cache policy
[17:39] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: why would it be throwing a broken packages error? is there any way to find which package is broken?
[17:41] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: you have the same package from 2 sources. both want their own conflicting packages to be installed, despite being the same thing
[17:41] <Pici> grenky: It says right in the message.  tilemill : Depends: libmapnik (>= 2.2.0) but it is not going to be installed
[17:41] <anykey> ah, I see.
[17:41] <anykey> can someone vouch for ntfs-3g?
[17:41]  * anykey is an ancient unix dinosaur
[17:41] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: but the error was there prior to having 2 PPAs,
[17:41] <Pici> anykey: it works just fine
[17:41] <hitsujiTMO> anykey: its pretty sweet.
[17:41] <anykey> I see.
[17:42] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: I can remove the PPA, and reattempt?
[17:42] <anykey> so I will test this.
[17:42] <hitsujiTMO> `gin: do then rerun apt-cache policy
[17:42] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: from the desktop iso can you pastebin the output of: lspci -k
[17:42] <`Gin> ok
[17:43] <hitsujiTMO> anykey: its will refuse to mount a 'dirty' ntfs partition, so as long as you don't impropperly shut down the pc things should be fine. a dirty ntfs partition is just one that needs to have chkdsk run on it
[17:44] <anykey> so NTFS is recommended because it's along with vfat the better solution of the ones windows wants, right?
[17:44] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: Same error, updating pastebin - 1 second
[17:45] <anykey> s/along with/compared to/
[17:45] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.ca/2554811
[17:46] <Rexter> actionparsnip; ok so the NTFS partition is question is /dev/sda4 should I use that, or uuid?
[17:46] <hitsujiTMO> anykey: ntfs allows for >4gb files mainly
[17:46] <anykey> point.
[17:47] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: and: apt-cache policy libgdal1
[17:47] <anykey> ah yes
[17:47] <anykey> what about mac os x?
[17:49] <hitsujiTMO> anykey: last time i look osx didn't support ntfs. that may have change. 2 years ago i had to use exfat for mac + linux + windows. but exfat was horribly slow
[17:49] <anykey> wikipedia claims ntfs-3g works with mac
[17:49] <grenky> `Gin: Maybe after some cleaning. sudo apt-get autoclean (to clean any partial packages). sudo apt-get clean (to clean the cache) . sudo apt-get autoremove (will clean up unneeded dependencies.If while doing this you can identify the broken package this code will very forcefully remove it.) -> sudo dpkg --remove -force --force-remove-reinstreq package name .
[17:49] <hitsujiTMO> anykey: does it allow ntfs writing?
[17:49] <anykey> ah well I've got a few colleagues with macs, I guess they don't even care anyway
[17:49] <anykey> no
[17:50] <anykey> wikipedia says they can't
[17:50] <anykey> oh, no I misread
[17:50] <anykey> they can if using ntfs-3g, but not when using their internal kernel driver
[17:50] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: changed the pastebin supplier as .ca is having some issues... http://pastebin.com/m5hJs9xp (libgdal1 at the bottom)
[17:50] <`Gin> grenky: will try these now,
[17:51] <hitsujiTMO> `gin: and theres your conflict
[17:51] <`Gin> grenky: ran first two, no broken package name identified
[17:51] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: great, so where do I go from here (I am a layman)
[17:53] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: you need to minimise the number of ppas you use or have separate systems with different collections of ppas to avoid the conflicts(where vms/chroot environments are handy).
[17:54] <hitsujiTMO> `Gin: its a difficult ones as right now: ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable is your issue
[17:55] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: that is the one containing the correct QGIS version
[17:55] <Rexter> question about fstab. are any entried placed in here auto mounted by the system before log on?
[17:55] <anykey> hee hee that flash of insecurity when doing mkfs ("is it the right drive? OMG! Oh, yes, it was.")
[17:55] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: would it be easier to do my work on QGIS, uninstall it, install tilemill and complete my work on tilemill?
[17:55] <Pici> hitsujiTMO: From the output there I don't see an issue.
[17:55] <`Gin> hitsujiTMO: I only need QGIS temporarily
[17:57] <Pici> Looks like something else depends on something that conflicts with libgdal1
[17:58] <`Gin> Pici: I have trouble understanding why its a conflict when apt-get reports broken packages. Is it just a poor error message or am I missing something?
[17:59] <Pici> `Gin: its just how it reports that sort of thing.
[18:01] <rigo88> hitsujiTMO: works with ps/2 keyboard. but come on.. do i really need to keep a legacy ps2 keyboard just to be able to install ubuntu? :D
[18:01] <shambat> if I use rsync --delete, withh this also delete remote files that are in the rsync_exclude.txt file that happen to exist?
[18:02] <`Gin> grenky, Pici, hitsujiTMO, I appreciate your help, thanks
[18:04] <shambat> I mean, if there happens to be an a.txt at the remote site, and a.txt is in the rsync_exclude.txt file, then if you run rsync --delete, will the remote a.txt be deleted?
[18:04] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: i think the issue is with a missing ohci_pci driver. its an embarrassing issue that effects 13.04 + 13.10 but is fixed in 14.04
[18:05] <Rexter> I'm setting up auto mount of an ntfs partition if fstab. would there be anything under options, dump, and pass?
[18:07] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: its missing from initramfs and should be added post install or else you will have issues if you get dropped to busybox or are using luks
[18:07] <geirha> Rexter: options, several. dump and pass should both be 0
[18:08] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: the bug in question: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1238194
[18:09] <Rexter> geirha; thanks, whay do you mean by several?
[18:09] <geirha> Rexter: You'll want uid, gid, fmask and dmask at least. Look them up in   man mount.ntfs-3g
[18:11] <hitsujiTMO> Pici: sorry, you're correct, read it too quickly without taking propper care just looking for what i expected to be there
[18:11] <Rexter> gerirha; this is what I have :UUI=2EB1ABB43FD96896    /mnt/NTFS    ntfs
[18:12] <Rexter> gerirha, the next thing is <options>
[18:12] <hitsujiTMO> Rexter: are you missing the D from UUID ?
[18:12] <Rexter> hitsijiTM0, thanks no typo
[18:13] <hitsujiTMO> rexter, defaults,rw are basic allow write options
[18:14] <Rexter> hitsujiTMO; rw would go under <options>?
[18:14] <hitsujiTMO> Rexter: yes.
[18:15] <Rexter> hitsujiTMO; is the spacing irrelevant?
[18:16] <hitsujiTMO> Rexter: yes as long as there's spacing. try to use spaces rather than tabs for readability on readers with different tab widths
[18:16] <daniel__> 123
[18:17] <Rexter> hitsujiTMO; what if the NTFS partition has been hibernated? How will this react?
[18:18] <hitsujiTMO> Rexter: i'm not familiar with any hibernation spec changes. afaik herbernation is a dump of ram to hiberfil.sys
[18:19] <Rexter> hitsujiTMO, an NTFS partition that has ben hibernated will not mount properly without certian options, I'm not going to worry about this right now. I'll come back to it.
[18:20] <Rexter> hitsujiTMO; op rw under ,Options> <dump has to do with backup, right?
[18:21] <hitsujiTMO> Rexter: sorry. can you be clearer about the question there.
[18:22] <gimmic> so uh, stupid question
[18:22] <gimmic> nmap- accidentally hit P during a scan
[18:23] <gimmic> now it's showing me interactive
[18:23] <gimmic> I want to stop that, but can't seem to find a key to do so
[18:23] <gimmic> anyone familiar with it?
[18:23] <Rexter> hitsujiTMO; so far I have <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> The next one is <dump>
[18:23] <hitsujiTMO> Rexter: dump is 0, unless you are using the dump command ... which i've never seen used tbh
[18:25] <Dragoneye> glitch in the matrix...    I log into ubuntu and i get right back to the loginscreen..   thats wierd... :-)  pw is ok.
[18:26] <maysara> Hi, I want to crop a video vertically to half via smplayer. How can I do that?
[18:26] <hitsujiTMO> Dragoneye: ctrl + alt + f1. login. check ~/.xsession-errors
[18:26] <Rexter> hitsujiTMO; <pass> should be 0 right, as fsck cannot check an NTFS partition?

[18:40] <bilegt> launchpad rejected my  source, it says unable to identify me in launchpad? Should my username match with my ubuntu machine username?
[18:40] <Rexter> geirha; I don't understand
[18:40] <Break> hi, where can i find the iso file to burn on dvd of ubuntu 13.10 (full ) ?
[18:40] <geirha> Rexter: there are two drivers for ntfs. The old, named ntfs, and the newer named ntfs-3g
[18:41] <Dragoneye> ok:  if you cannot log in even with the correct password, just reinstall nVidia drivers....
[18:41] <Rexter> geirha; NTFS drivers are already installed in ubuntu 13.10
[18:41] <amehar1989> test
[18:41] <amehar1989> hello Ubuntuers
[18:41] <geirha> Rexter: You want the newer driver since the old one doesn't support writing
[18:42] <Rexter> geirha, it works fine, I was just trying to edit fstab for auto mount.
[18:42] <amehar1989> hope you all well... I enable the nvidia drive throught the setting and now I cant boot the PC.. how can I remove the driver?
[18:43] <geirha> Rexter: Ok, but then there's no point in the rw option
[18:43] <amehar1989> I dont seem to have an X11 config file and Ive done a grep for nvidia and found nothing that points to the obvious
[18:43] <AwesomeDragon> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6757980/ Grubs starts, but then blackscreen. Boot-repair recommended options didn't change anything
[18:43] <Bashing-om> Break: Here is one place: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
[18:43] <Rexter> geirha, ok why? what options should I be usung in fstab?
[18:45] <Break> Bashing-om: this the CD version, doesn't contain all the softwares and codecs,
[18:45] <hitsujiTMO> Rexter: he means use ntfs-3g in the fstab filesystem type rather than ntfs to use the newer driver
[18:45] <geirha> Rexter: Ah, nevermind, I see mount.ntfs is a symlink to mount.ntfs-3g now, so it doesn't matter. It's the same one now.
[18:46] <Break> Bashing-om: i found the iso file of ubuntu 12.04 with 1.6G , but didn't find on 13.10 version
[18:47] <geirha> Rexter: They used to be different

[18:48] <Rexter> geirha, ok thank you. I'm still having some issues, but let me figure out what is going on, just a sec.
[18:48] <jhutchins> AwesomeDragon: can you boot to rescue mode?
[18:48] <Bashing-om> Break: Do not know what you have in mind: but; http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads
[18:49] <geirha> Rexter: your user probably won't be able to create any files on it; that's where uid, gid, fmask etc would come in
[18:51] <Break> Bashing-om: thank you, i'll try the link
[18:52] <Bashing-om> Break: once you are installed there is access to something like 40,000 packages at the click of a button.
[18:53] <Sapote> hi all!! have a trouble with apt-get update, stay on waiting for headers. If use wget with the full path get Release.gpg, but with apt-get get timeout.
[18:54] <AwesomeDragon> JumboJellyfish, i got a blackscreen to but i don't remember if it was directly after choosing rescue mode in grub or just after choosing normal boot in the list that comes after it
[18:55] <AwesomeDragon> jhutchins, i wanted to highlight, sorry
[18:55] <anew> where is /php5 in ubuntu? its not in /etc/php5

[19:02] <jay_m> Hey all
[19:04] <alex____1> sup
[19:04] <jay_m> Hi
[19:05] <jay_m> alex____1: sup
[19:06] <Beldar> Syrit, Any ppa's?
[19:06] <Sapote> Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/wvhdnPJr
[19:06] <Syrit> Beldar i don't know what do you mean by that
[19:07] <Rexter> geirha, are you saying that my entry in fstab is not the best way to go?
[19:07] <Beldar> Syrit, ppa's are 3rd party repos.
[19:07] <Bashing-om> Sapote: Not the output as expected for the commands requested, try copy and paste the commnads to the pastebin.looked again, still not.
[19:07] <Beldar> Syrit, All sorts of apps can be gotten from the, did you add any?
[19:07] <Syrit> oh Beldar, when i try to updgrade, it keeps saying that 3rd party repos are disabled, but i thought that this is irrelevant !
[19:08] <scratman> Greetings all, I have a dns issue with ubuntu desktop, can anybody help?
[19:08] <Beldar> Syrit, Not if they have add stuff that caused this broken package problem.
[19:08] <Syrit> Beldar, i'v been using ubuntu fairly long, around 10 months , and i've added so many
[19:08] <Syrit> so, what do you recommend i do Beldar?
[19:09] <Degauss> Hi is there any chance that "flickering display in the notebook" issue will be resolved in the next version of Ubuntu?
[19:09] <Beldar> Syrit, In general you can do ppa-purge not sure if this is possible with a broken package scenario, I will trigger the bot for the ppa-purge info.
[19:10] <Beldar> !ppa-purge | Syrit
[19:10] <Degauss> It flickers when brightness is low.
[19:10] <scratman> Degauss, depends whether the issue is driver or hardware.  Does it flicker on other disrepair, operating systems?
[19:10] <Syrit> oh, i think i tried that already, but it did not work  Beldar
[19:10] <Syrit> i will try to install ppa-purge and try again, i think first time it was not installed
[19:10] <scratman> Does anybody know how to fix dns issues with Ubuntu 12.04 gnome desktop?
[19:11] <Beldar> Syrit, "you think" is not a empirical statement, look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d anything still there has not been purged.
[19:11] <bekks> scratman: the same as on every other linux. Which issue in particular do you have?
[19:13] <Beldar> Syrit, For the record adding PPA's should not be done unless that is an only option, and having any broken packages should be fixed when they happen.
[19:13] <Syrit> Beldar, i see that that folder has many files, how do i know that they are purged or not ?
[19:13] <scratman> bekks, dns seems to be messed up, I can't connect to the internet with Chrome or FireFox, I can ping a Google Ip address from terminal, but can't ping WWW.Google.com
[19:13] <AwesomeDragon> now i get an error: No such device: <cryptical number>
[19:13] <AwesomeDragon> grub rescue>
[19:13] <adamsilver> Should I install fail2ban or denyhosts?
[19:13] <bekks> scratman: Define "messed up" and "cant connect" please.
[19:13] <Degauss> scratman, Windows 7 (the second OS) does not show this symptom.
[19:13] <tomasso> is there some way to change the ip a process listens to ?
[19:14] <zerowaitstate> scratman, from a terminal window, run nm-tool .  What is the DNS server returned?
[19:14] <jhutchins> Degauss: In that case it's best to try to figure out what's wrong rather than blindly wait for an upgrade.
[19:14] <jhutchins> Degauss: You could try a live CD for Ubuntu, or for another distribution.
[19:15] <scratman> In FireFox whatever address I attention to reach results in " Server not found, Firefox can't find the server at....."
[19:15] <bekks> scratman: Then what are your DNS settings?
[19:16] <scratman> bekks: I'm not sure how to check, would it be in network manager, or am I better looking via terminal?
[19:16] <bekks> scratman: Doesnt matter actually.
[19:16] <Beldar> Syrit, If it were me I would try to purge one ppa if possible and see if it gone from that file or is just commented out with a #. This is not an area I can really fully help you in, ppa's basically are not supported here, and I don't know what exactly you have done. You should pastebin that broken package info and include it with asking for help to the channel.
[19:17] <kostkon> !ppapurge
[19:17] <Syrit> oh okay, thank you Beldar
[19:17] <Degauss> jhutchins, It is known problem, i red in a forums and didn't find the solution.
[19:19] <scratman> bekks: hmmm, network connections is now listing no connections at all....
[19:19] <bekks> scratman: Then use the terminal.
[19:19] <Syrit> Beldar, here is 'part' of my broken packages list https://gist.github.com/anonymous/8479646
[19:19] <Beldar> Syrit, I suspect the ppa's are just commented out rather then removed, however if you can run some purge withlook at the websites for the packages offered and cross reference this with the broken list
[19:20] <Degauss> jhutchins, I tried official Intel drivers for my video card without positive result.
[19:20] <scratman> Bekks which command? Ipconfig? Ifconfig? Something else?
[19:20] <bekks> scratman: sudo ifconfig -a
[19:20] <Beldar> Syrit, Heh, how long have you ignored this broken list that is a mess?
[19:21] <Syrit> Ages Beldar :D
[19:21] <scratman> Bekks, what am I looking for?
[19:21] <Degauss> Here is the post about this problem, for example.  http://askubuntu.com/questions/156329/screen-flickering-in-ubuntu-12-04-lts
[19:21] <bekks> scratman: The output.
[19:21] <hellsgate> hi
[19:21] <Syrit> Beldar, actually i thought that apt-get update would fix that
[19:21] <normalra_> Hey, I'm interesting in looking at the source code of the code that calls for 'notify-osd' with battery notification, I've looked at 'gnome-power-manager' but I do not think it is there.
[19:21] <Beldar> Syrit, You might consider a backup of what you need and doing a fresh install, and realize your errors here.
[19:23] <Syrit> i tried to upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 and it went horrible, then i upgraded to 13.04 ..and i am stock, i can't go to 13.10 Beldar
[19:23] <Linkandzelda> hey guys, how do I change the language on ubuntu 13.04 server? ssh only. thanks
[19:24] <scratman> Bekks, it's quite long, and I'm having to transcribe via my phone as my laptop can't connect to irc
[19:24] <scratman> Bekks give me a moment or two...
[19:25] <anew> where is the sudoer file in ubuntu?
[19:25] <Beldar> Syrit, Theoretically anything can be fixed, however for me time is a factor personally. I suspect you did upgrades thinking it would fix problems, that is a bad method, along with having ppa's you don't need and ignoring broken packages, and doing partial upgrades.
[19:25] <hje841> what temperature widget do you use in 13.10?
[19:25] <Beldar> hje841, we don;t allow polling here.
[19:26] <hje841> Beldar, so no one will recommend a hardware monitoring widget?
[19:26] <hitsujiTMO> anew: sudo visudo
[19:26] <Bashing-om> Sapote: Do you need guidance to use pastebin ?
[19:27] <Beldar> hje841, This is support for a problem, not polling is all. Polling is asking the whole channel.
[19:27] <hje841> right
[19:27] <kostkon> !info psensor | hje841, try this:

[19:33] <nishanth> so i have a computer which has win7 and ubuntu . is there a way i can run both at the same time
[19:33] <jockey4her> nishanth: in a virtual machine you can run either or both.
[19:34] <Beldar> nishanth, yes several ways, dual boot or a virtual
[19:34] <Beldar> ah same time a virtual my mistake
[19:35] <tarkaram> Hello, can we setup a ubuntu machine to be on two networks, on one it acts as a gateway and on the other its a regular node
[19:35] <nishanth> Beldar i can dual boot into either of the partitions at a time, but is there a way to run both partitions at the same time
[19:36] <Beldar> nishanth, no
[19:36]  * JotaK is away: Estoy ocupado
[19:36] <nishanth> Beldar you know anything about xen hypervisor?
[19:36] <Beldar> nishanth,One os or the other with a dual boot
[19:37] <Beldar> nishanth, NO I have not used but feel free to correct my mistakes to the user.
[19:37] <AndroUser2> bekks this is what I got :

[19:39] <gregor3005> hi, whats the best way to download a full album from amazon cloud player? i found some informations but its looks that amazon has changed again there software
[19:39] <AndroUser2> Lol, ok
[19:39] <bekks> gregor3005: Pay for it, download it.
[19:39] <gregor3005> bekks: lol your funny. what do you think i try?
[19:40] <jhutchins> gregor3005: I don't know, I've always been able to just click on their download links with firefox.
[19:40] <MTughan> I know this isn't officially supported, but I need to install Java on an older server running Hardy 8.04. The repos aren't there anymore. I was hoping to get OpenJDK, but I could accept other versions too. Any way to get Java on this server?
[19:41] <jhutchins> MTughan: Upgrade it to a supported release.
[19:41] <MTughan> Upgrading is not an option as I'm not the administrator.
[19:41] <daftykins> MTughan: sorry we can't offer support for outdated releases regardless of scenario
[19:41] <jhutchins> MTughan: Yeah, probably take a new install anyway, I don't think all the intervening steps are available.
[19:41] <gregor3005> jhutchins: when i try to download the full album i get the information that linux is not supported and i have to download the files one after aanother
[19:42] <jhutchins> MTughan: I suppose there's always the universal linux answer - download the source, compile & build the packages, install.
[19:42] <MTughan> jhutchins: Yeah, that may be what I end up doing. Going to see what I can get prebuilt first though. Thanks.
[19:42] <jhutchins> gregor3005: Which browser are you using.
[19:42] <krabador> if i would to un-crypt my ubuntu partition, how can i ?

[19:43] <jhutchins> gregor3005: I guess one-at-a-time is what you get then.  I'll pay attention next time I buy an album.
[19:43] <geirha> Rexter: No, I'm saying instead of just the rw option, you may need more options; depending on what you want to do with the filesystem
[19:44] <yahyaa> can anyone tell me how to get my wifi icon back down in my sys tray???
[19:44] <gregor3005> jhutchins: ok
[19:45] <geirha> Rexter: the options you can use when the fstype is ntfs, is listed in the man-page for mount.ntfs. To see the man-page, you run:  man mount.ntfs
[19:46] <geirha> Rexter: To specify multiple options, you separate them with comma (no spaces), e.g.:  defaults,rw,uid=1000
[19:49] <AndroUser2> Bekks: any ideas?
[19:49] <Beldar> yahyaa, Where is it and why is it gone?
[19:50] <yahyaa> idk know where it is, i just doesnt load in my systray any more
[19:50] <bekks> AndroUser2: You have no IP address configured. You cant be connected to the internet.
[19:50] <Beldar> yahyaa, Can you lonk this with any modifications you have done?
[19:50] <Beldar> link*
[19:51] <AndroUser2> Bekks how do I resolve this?
[19:51] <yahyaa> dont understand the question!
[19:51] <bekks> AndroUser2: By configuring an IP, either manually or using the Network Manager.
[19:51] <yahyaa> the only mod that was done is i tried to upgrade to saucy salamander
[19:52] <Beldar> yahyaa, Do you notice that when I address you I use your nick? Is modification not a word you understand?
[19:53] <yahyaa> Beldar, I understand modification, i dont understand "lonk"!!!
[19:53] <Beldar> yahyaa, So upon a upgrade to saucy the wifi icon is gone? look below that same line and see the correction.
[19:54] <Beldar> yahyaa, We do make spelling mistakes here on occasion, if you see that look for a correction.
[19:54] <yahyaa> Beldar, I c, but yes it was after trying to upgrade is when it disapeared!
[19:54] <shlomocomputer> Hi, moderately advanced Linux user here.  I have a very non-savvy customer I set up with Ubuntu 12.04.  What's the easiest way he can enable EITHER ssh OR remote desktop so I can do maintenance on his machine?  Assume he has access to terminal, and he can't admin his router.
[19:55] <Beldar> yahyaa, This unity?
[19:55] <shlomocomputer> And he's behind a NAT over the internet
[19:55] <daftykins> shlomocomputer: install teamviewer
[19:55] <shlomocomputer> k I'll check it out
[19:55] <nishanth> is there a way to run both OS partitions at the same time
[19:55] <AndroUser2> Bekks can you launch network manager from Terminal?  I tried network-manager but the command was not found
[19:55] <yahyaa> Beldar, Im not sure, i think gnome! its Kubuntu 13.10 saucy salamander
[19:55] <bekks> nishanth: Using a virtualization solution, yes.
[19:56] <bekks> AndroUser2: nmcli is the console interface.
[19:56] <AndroUser2> Bekks: don't have the network icon on my toolbar, either
[19:56] <nishanth> bekks does virtualization use the OS installed on my computer or does it just emulate an OS?
[19:57] <bekks> nishanth: As the name implies, virtualization does not emulate, but virtualize an OS.
[19:57] <ewook> shlomocomputer: you send him a script conneting him to your ssh server, with forwarding ports you can connect to.
[19:57] <nishanth> bekks so how can i do it?
[19:57] <Beldar> yahyaa, Ah, I'm not familiar with kubuntu, figure out the actual desktop, and include the upgrade in this disappearance when asking for help. I can't really help with kubuntu.
[19:58] <ewook> shlomocomputer: or, you teach him how to do maintenance himself.
[19:58] <shlomocomputer> ewook: thanks
[19:58] <bekks> nishanth: By installing a virtualization solution like virtualbox, kvm, xen and create a vm that uses your physically installed second OS.
[19:58] <shlomocomputer> ewook:  He can't afford that.  :)
[19:58] <ewook> shlomocomputer: it only takes time to learn
[19:58] <shlomocomputer> Don't tell me that, tell him
[19:58] <ewook> shlomocomputer: no, your customer :).
[19:58] <yahyaa> Beldar, the actual desktop is Kubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander
[19:59] <yahyaa> Beldar, thanks anyway!
[19:59] <AndroUser2> Bekks: I have no idea what I'm doing with nmcli, is there a command to reset network connections to default?
[19:59] <shlomocomputer> ewook:  elderly gentleman, got other priorities
[19:59] <Beldar> yahyaa, Cool, so you understand my point in details I assume, I'm just not familiar with kubuntu is all.
[19:59] <bekks> AndroUser2: No, since there are no "default" connections.
[19:59] <yahyaa> can anyone help me restore systray icons in kubuntu 13.10
[19:59] <AndroUser2> Oh
[20:01] <dondopa> Are there any TTS engine/application whether online/offline that doesn't sound like microshit sam, has no word limit and can save the recordings as mp3s? I would really appreciate it for my studying....
[20:01] <Beldar> yahyaa, Can anyone is not used here, you want to say upon upgrading to 13.10 kubuntu I have missing what ever it is, this gives more details and is more likely to get you help, there is also a #kubuntu channel.
[20:02] <idaniel> Guys, for some reason, when I logged on to Firefox a bit ago, the page spread out to the left underneath my left icons. I could go to "view" and zoom in or out to see the writing, but the page itself still sat underneath the icons and I can't reach it to bring it to the right. Does anybody know how to fix that?
[20:02] <k-rad> is latest ubuntu ok on 13.10 and an i3 3.0ghz ?
[20:03] <Beldar> idaniel, Is this a resolution issue?
[20:03] <iancampbell> my new server will support linux kernel 2.4 / 2.6….does that mean i could install ubuntu server version 12.04.3
[20:03] <idaniel> ummm I guess...   maybe I should mess with my monitor?
[20:04] <AndroUser2>  Bekks: I have absolutely no idea what to do now :(
[20:04] <Beldar> idaniel, Are you using the orca reader?
[20:04] <Tim_Thaler> Q: How do i enable the "bell" , or any sound in the bash (e.g. for ping -a 192.168.1.1)
[20:04] <idaniel> boy, I don't know what that is! sorry kind of new with Linux.
[20:06] <Bashing-om> iancampbell: Terminal command: cpuinfo -> flags pae , sse , see2 present ? .. yes, should be good to upgrade.
[20:06] <dondopa> Are there any TTS engine/application whether online/offline that doesn't sound like microshit sam, has no word limit and can save the recordings as mp3s? I would really appreciate it for my studying....
[20:07] <Beldar> idaniel, I think orca is a vocal read of what you type, there are other apps that change the resolution for sight impaired reading, look in the top panel and see if any new icons are there indicating one is on.
[20:07] <idaniel> o.k. thanks!

[20:11] <sruz25> hi there, is there any way to make fdupes consider only some files based on name? (like using wildcards and stuff like that)
[20:12] <AndroUser2> Bekks: I have connected an ethernet lead between my laptop and router, but eth0() isn't an option, there's also nothing beneath wireless
[20:12] <glitsj16> lost contact with someone .. if the person with the xserver-xorg-video-sis-lts-raring issue is still here .. see http://paste.ubuntu.com/6770028/ for further instructions
[20:13] <shlomocomputer> sruz25:  What is fdupes?
[20:13] <bekks> !info fdupes
[20:13] <idaniel> I just had to restart my computer, and the browser resolution corrected itself on the left side.
[20:13] <sruz25> it's done by size, md5 sum and than bit by bit comparison
[20:19] <AndroUser2> Bekks is there a recovery mode for ubuntu?
[20:19] <bekks> !recovery | AndroUser2
[20:20] <sruz25> solved it (fslint)
[20:20] <AndroUser2> Ubottu seems extreme for a networking issue, but I'm out of my depth
[20:21] <dondopa> Are there any free TTS voices I can utilize for Ubuntu?
[20:21] <dondopa> Hopefully they are not robotic

[20:28] <jay_m> Hi
[20:28] <skinux> I'm trying to reformat swap because according to info I looked up via search, my swap is encrypted and it's not able to decrypt at boot.
[20:28] <kongthap> i have declare an alias in ~/.bash_aliases but I still cannot use that alias how to fix ??? more detail: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6770125/
[20:29] <rww> kongthap: did you close and re-open the terminal since changing either of those files?
[20:29] <rww> (alternatively, source ~/.bashrc)
[20:29] <kongthap> rww, nope :P
[20:29] <rww> that would be a good idea
[20:30] <Bashing-om> Tim_Thaler: I do not see anything devoted to swap.
[20:30] <kongthap> rww, just that easy, thanks :P
[20:30] <arkgis> i'm having trouble with grub configuration after an apt-get upgrade today on 12.04.  I have to choose a disk for the bootloader, but I don't know which.

[20:30] <rww> kongthap: you're welcome :)
[20:31] <arkgis> is it safe to NOT install grub ? (i don't have any other OS than ubuntu on the box)
[20:31] <gordonjcp> arkgis: nothing especially bad will happen, but your system won't boot
[20:31] <Bashing-om> Tim_Thaler: For a better indication, pastebin terminal code -> sudo blkid <- .
[20:32] <arkgis> gordonjcp: lol that is pretty bad though. can you make sense of where i should put it from the info i posted?
[20:32] <arkgis> gordonjcp: i dont have physical access to the disk, it's a vps.
[20:32] <gordonjcp> arkgis: hm, that rather depends on how the VPS is organised
[20:32] <tonyt> grub is your boot loader . regardless of how many OS are on the drive . no grub=no boot of anything
[20:33] <gordonjcp> arkgis: just go with the defaults
[20:33] <arkgis> tonyt: ok. thanks. so where should i put it?
[20:33] <Tim_Thaler> Bashing-om: We are not talking to each other....,, sorry mate wrong person...

[20:45] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: lsblk
[20:45] <jockey4her> i have a usb/sd card drive. dmesg set it up as /sdb.  I can use gparted to successfully format a card.  If I try to cat junk.txt > /dev/sdb  I get permission denied. Even as root.  What am I missing?
[20:45] <rigo88> or dunno what happens, but if i start the pc without the usb i only get the flashing prompt. if i put in the usb and  start from usb the system starts normal
[20:45] <axizor> hey hitsujiTMO: sorry to bother you, but what's the best way to clean install ubuntu?
[20:45] <axizor> when i reinstalled 12.04 last night, the lan problems were still present
[20:45] <rigo88> what is an lsblk?
[20:45] <MonkeyDust> jockey4her  first mount /dev/sdb , then create files and folders
[20:46] <Beldar> rigo88, Boot the OS and run sudo grub-install /dev/sdX X is the hard drive it's on no partitions.
[20:46] <hitsujiTMO> axizor: weird. maybe its caused by an update to one of the package
[20:46] <rigo88> omg. so not /dev/sda1 but only /dev/sda ?
[20:46] <axizor> hitsujiTMO: thats what I thought so I'm on 13.04 now and cant get samba to connect - clients just say they dont have permission
[20:46] <jockey4her> ty MonkeyDust.  will do.
[20:46] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: blkid lists the block devices so we can figure out which one is your internal drive
[20:46] <Beldar> rigo88, yes
[20:46] <adamsilver> hitsujiTMO: Version: 2:1-5 .. but latest version is 1.2!
[20:47] <rigo88> gr8 :D
[20:47] <Beldar> rigo88, I am assuming you have no boot partition.
[20:47] <hitsujiTMO> axizor: dont use 13.04 use 13.10. 13.04 will have the repos removed next week
[20:48] <AndroUser2> Bekks: fixed it :D
[20:48] <axizor> hitsujiTMO: with 13.10, there's a bug with naut and it wont install libpam-smbpass which is required for user accounts
[20:48] <rigo88> i tried the grub-install /dev/sda1 but i got some strange EM. now i try without 1 ty. brb.
[20:48] <zerowaitstate> axizor: wow, that's kinda scorched earth, isn't it?
[20:48] <hitsujiTMO> axizor: and is it not fixed in an update?
[20:48] <Bashing-om> jockey4her: OH Where to start to answer that. "sda" is a block device, you want to access a file system on that block devise, thus attacch the device to the file system by making a mount point, and access the file system through the mount point.
[20:49] <Beldar> rigo88, It should not error if sda1 is root, what is sda1?
[20:49] <mrpizzaface> hello i was wondering if someone can help me get my external HDD reconized by a live CD of ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS

[20:49] <jockey4her> thanks Bashing-om. I am researching how to do a mount now.
[20:49] <axizor> hitsujiTMO: i thought I installed all the updates first... i'll try again and let ubuntu sit for a while and collect all the updates it needs and try again

[20:50] <Beldar> rigo88, This command I gave you is from the command line of the os.
[20:50] <bekks> kongthap: What is a ".phar" file?
[20:50] <axizor> hitsujiTMO: does the remove and reinstall option in the ubuntu installer do a sufficient job with formatting the drive first?
[20:50] <hitsujiTMO> mrpizzaface: pastebin the output of: sudo parted -l
[20:51] <Phoenixz> I have a process that has files open that have been deleted.. I can see in /proc/PID/fd that the files are there, and deleted.  I think one of these files is rather large, but since its deleted, I cannot just do an ls.. Is there any way to get the size of these deleted  files?
[20:51] <kongthap> bekks, it's laravel install laravel.phar, but i did rename to laravel-install instead
[20:51] <Bashing-om> jockey4her:  for starters :https://help.ubuntu.comunity/Mount/
[20:51] <hitsujiTMO> axizor: don't know. i usually wipe the partition table myself before an install
[20:51] <axizor> hitsujiTMO: what do you use?
[20:51] <mrpizzaface> hitsujiTMO: ok
[20:52] <hitsujiTMO> axizor: cgdisk/cfdisk

[20:53] <k-rad> is btrfs faster than the other filesystem good for ssds?
[20:54] <hitsujiTMO> mrpizzaface: looks like you tried to create an mbr partition on it after a gpt.   is there anything on the drive now?
[20:54] <mrpizzaface> hitsujiTMO: no
[20:54] <hitsujiTMO> k-rad: btrfs is unstable
[20:55] <mrpizzaface> hitsujiTMO: the drive wont even showup to the live CD but if i insert my USb drive that has ubuntu installed on it it will show up
[20:56] <rigo88> how to prevent the installer installing the grub to the wrong disk?
[20:57] <mrpizzaface> hitsujiTMO: hmmm after doing that command the drive seems to reconize wierd
[20:57] <Beldar> rigo88, run sudo blkid and confirm your disks
[20:57] <rigo88> i mean while installing. so like i said i installed the previous versions several times and there was no such problem ever before.
[20:58] <Beldar> rigo88, Know the disc your installing to and use the manual install.
[20:58] <hitsujiTMO> mrpizzaface: after running that, and you selecting y, then it prob created a new partition table. i'd use gparted to create either a msdos table, or new gpt table
[20:59] <rigo88> what if i write protect the stick? :D
[20:59] <Beldar> rigo88, On occasion the usb becomes sda, so you have to watch for that.
[20:59] <mrpizzaface> hitsujiTMO: ok thanks :)
[21:00] <Beldar> rigo88, Your trying to use a battleship to fight a crowd, just manual install.
[21:01] <Beldar> ;)
[21:01] <rigo88> :)
[21:01] <rigo88> Beldar: how do u mean manual install? what part?
[21:02] <Beldar> rigo88, Never installed a server, however it must ask you where you want the OS, and where grub goes.
[21:02] <hitsujiTMO> rigo88: grub-install /dev/sdX     <- manual install
[21:03] <rigo88> must give a try. god damn it i have troubles installing the worlds easyest linux distro :D if you dont hear from me tomorrow i hanged myself :D
[21:03] <Beldar> not ask necessarily but have those options

[21:50] <impossible> !purge
[21:50] <Magicsack> ubuntu boots fine, done recovery mode and the whole o/s has basically disappeared. what has gone wrong? I only updated thanks
[21:50] <larry_> i hav two Ubuntu systems one of them works fine with flash drives and the other one doesnt even register them. anyone know how to fix this?
[21:51] <MoPac> Magicsack: What do you see after you boot up?
[21:52] <Magicsack> I was unable to update, it said package missing. I can boot up to desktop, but missing explore button and all other icons. Unable to get into terminal or even search it. I can go to"computer" via a folder
[21:53] <Paddy_NI> I have configured a VPN connections using network manager called "Private Internet Access". I am wondering if I wanted to have multiple gateways would I be better to rename the connection "Gateway Location" and create a new VPN connection for each gateway with its own unique name to reflect the location if I wish to have an easy way to switch between gateways?
[21:53] <Paddy_NI> Sorry if that is a little incoherent
[21:53] <MoPac> Magicsack: Is the resolution on the screen a bit weird for you?
[21:53] <Paddy_NI> * a vpn connection
[21:54] <larry_> i hav two Ubuntu systems one of them works fine with flash drives and the other one doesnt even register them. anyone know how to fix this?
[21:54] <Ampelbein> anew: Under what user are you running the script? How do you invoke the script? What errors do you get (if any)?
[21:54] <Magicsack> MoPac, i was able to reboot when i had that, it went back to normal, but still nothing, not even the time in top right etc
[21:54] <MoPac> Magicsack: I have a suggestion for you. If you do not have it installed already, go to a terminal and sudo apt-get compizconfig-settings-manager
[21:54] <anew> Ampelbein, i'm running as root to test it out
[21:54] <sruz25> do you know any tool which could brute-force crack router password via telnet?
[21:54] <anew> to start the script i sudo perl script.pl
[21:54] <Magicsack> i cant get to terminal...
[21:54] <anew> but inside the script i have exec('sudo...'); to run another perl script and this is the line that is not being run
[21:55] <MoPac> Magicsack: if you can get into a folder, you can navigate to the terminal application
[21:55] <MoPac> Magicsack: go to usr --> share --> applications
[21:55] <Paddy_NI> larry_, On the system that does not recognise the usb flash drives have you tried (without the usb flash plugged in) running "lsusb" in a terminal and noting the entries. You then plug in your usb flash disk and run lsusb again to see if any new entries have appeared
[21:56] <Magicsack> i used the search by doing ctrl +f and nothing. Its almost as if it has been mixed with windows somehow
[21:56] <MoPac> Magicsack: can you use the scrollbar while in the usr share applications folder?
[21:57] <MoPac> Magicsack: There should be an icon for the terminal application that you can double-click on
[21:57] <Magicsack> unable to access those folders. only a folder (music file) on desktop
[21:57] <Magicsack> no sidebar either where i had terminal
[21:58] <larry_> Paddy_NI: nothing new
[21:58] <MoPac> Magicsack: what happens if you hit ctrl-alt-t ?
[21:58] <Magicsack> i did that with ctl alt del and nothing again
[21:59] <MoPac> Magicsack: not ctrl-alt-del  , ctrl-alt-T
[21:59] <drpoo> how can I change the which kernel grub loads? I am using 12.04 lts and would like to change which kernel gets loaded at boot
[21:59] <MoPac> or just ctrl-T, whatever the default terminal launcher command is; I just want to make sure that's not working for you
[21:59] <Magicsack> Let me reboot into ub as im in windows now... I have ffox on desktop as icon, but that was installed via wine and opens only via wine
[21:59] <MoPac> Magicsack: wait, before you do that
[22:00] <Magicsack> ok.. :)
[22:00] <drpoo> i am using grub1
[22:00] <MoPac> Magicsack: when you go into ubuntu, see if you can open that one folder and then find yourself through the file system to the usr-share-applications folder and get a terminal
[22:01] <MoPac> or via any other command
[22:01] <Ampelbein> anew: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6770625/ is a simple test and it works as expected.
[22:01] <MoPac> Magicsack: then, install ccsm (sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager)
[22:02] <anew> odd thanks Ampelbein
[22:02] <Magicsack> back in few. will save this chat file first  and load it up again :) Really appreciate the help
[22:02] <MoPac> Magicsack: Once that installs, type "ccsm" into a terminal, which will bring up this settings program. Then, try to enable the "ubuntu unity" plugin, along with whatever other plugins
[22:02] <MoPac> Magicsack: whatever it demands
[22:03] <MoPac> Magicsack: When I have been in your situation, it has generally been because the unity plugin for Compiz got disabled during update
[22:04] <larry_> i hav two Ubuntu systems one of them works fine with flash drives and the other one doesnt even register them. anyone know how to fix this?
[22:05] <wad> And I still connected?
[22:05] <larry_> i tried sudo apt-get install usbmount
[22:07] <funkt> failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled error on boot hi there does anyone know of a solution to this my core temp keeps shutting down ubuntu after using high grahic apps for too long anyone have any ideas?
[22:10] <drpoo> how do i change the kernel grub loads for version 0.97 of grub?
[22:11] <Magicsack> Hi all, Fingers crossed I cambe back to correct channel? thanks
[22:13] <FreewheelinFrank> error 255
[22:14] <olabaz> hey I'm trying to install ubuntu on my laptop through USB but when I boot it just takes me to GNU GRUB and gives me a terminal like screen that says grub>
[22:14] <olabaz> any ideas?
[22:14] <milamber> olabaz: how did you create the usb?
[22:15] <Balzy> Hello, can I ask a suggestion about adblock plus and its forks? Which one is the best and more complete?
[22:15] <olabaz> milamber: i used pendrive linux program and then unetbootin
[22:16] <milamber> olabaz: why both?
[22:16] <olabaz> milamber: I tried one and then I tried the other but they both gave me the same error
[22:16] <MonkeyDust> !best | Balzy
[22:17] <milamber> olabaz: what os is currently on the computer? what does it do when you boot without the thumb drive?
[22:18] <olabaz> milamber: loads windows 8
[22:18] <F_Walker> olabaz: download unetbootin and create usb with that
[22:18] <olabaz> F_Walker: I already tried that :/
[22:19] <Balzy> MonkeyDust oks, sorry
[22:19] <milamber> olabaz: what image are you trying to use and how comfortable are you with the command line/
[22:19] <milamber> ?*
[22:20] <olabaz> milamber: i know the basics. And I'm using the 12.04 from the ubuntu site
[22:21] <milamber> olabaz: what os are you using for unetbootin?
[22:21] <olabaz> milamber: I'm running unetbootin on my desktop that has windows 7
[22:23] <Jewel> Hi
[22:23] <nooob> After entering the password to decrypt the disc I get a screen of text and my laptop becomes unresponsive to anything except the power button.
[22:23] <Magicsack_> Hi all, back again. I did what was suggested, then got invalid E. Also got the broken count 0 Nothing still
[22:24] <milamber> olabaz: ahh, ok, i am not sure how to do it on windows, but i would google how to delete the mbr (first 512 bytes) of the flash drive and then re-run unetbootin
[22:24] <Jewel> I downloaded ubuntu 12.04 today and my mouse isn't working in ubuntu
[22:24] <Jewel> But it works in windows xp
[22:24] <olabaz> milamber: ok i'll try that out and get back to you
[22:26] <kanatsu> Hi
[22:26] <Magicsack_> MoPak: i also tried  using sudo compizconfig-settings as suggested and it didnt recognize the request either. I could only get to Zterminal in applications
[22:26] <milamber> Jewel: what kind of mouse is it?
[22:26] <MonkeyDust> Jewel  bluetooth mouse?
[22:26] <Jewel> My mouse isn't working in ubuntu
[22:27] <Magicsack_> unable to use ctrl, alt T either. Cant navigate between  tabs or programs using alt+tab
[22:28] <milamber> Jewel: what kind of mouse is it? trackpad, attached with a cord, wireless . . .
[22:28] <Jewel> It's a wireless usb mouse
[22:29] <milamber> Jewel: ok, what kind of wireless? bluetooth?
[22:29] <Jewel> Usb
[22:30] <milamber> Jewel: assuming you are on the computer where the mouse is not working, in the terminal type: lsusb                then  !pastebin the output
[22:30] <milamber> !pastebin > Jewel
[22:30] <nooob> http://m.imgur.com/GbEspuX,8xsaqcJ,mbrD4Oy  I get the first image whennever I boot to Ubuntu no matter what kernel I use. It has worked fine for months. Whennever I try recover mode I get this for fsck, and every other option. http://m.imgur.com/htUqJBserror
[22:30] <MoPac> Magicsack_: were you unable to install compizconfig-settings-manager or were you unable to use it once installed?
[22:31] <nooob> At which point it becomes unresponsive.
[22:31] <Magicsack_> Cant do anything at all Mo, if i navigate away from browser, I have to restart chat again
[22:32] <Jewel> It says event not found
[22:32] <MoPac> Magicsack_: So what is working at the moment when you are logged in?
[22:33] <Magicsack_> Ubuntu has a windows feel to it, but not. Nothing like i've exp before.
[22:33] <Magicsack_> cant use the tab button either
[22:33] <MonkeyDust> Jewel  find a way to install blueman (bluetooth manager)
[22:33] <MoPac> Magicsack_: When you log in, is there a password screen where you choose a desktop to use? Maybe it is reverting to a Gnome desktop?
[22:34] <Magicsack_> perhaps, but i didnt have a pw to log in ( i dont think i did)
[22:34] <Jewel> But ky mouse isn't working
[22:34] <skinux> swap should not be /boot/efi, that should be Windows.
[22:35] <skinux> So, all I should need to do is change swap setting back to sdb8
[22:35] <Magicsack_> it goes straight to desktop with shortcuts and a few music folders. right now im wine emulated firefox as its missing in apps
[22:35] <MoPac> Magicsack_: So, how is it that you are able to get to ZTerminal?
[22:36] <Magicsack_> there are 2. I navigated from there via the folder an mp3 file is in. left hand side computer,...
[22:36] <MonkeyDust> Jewel  with your keyboard: alt-f2, run synaptic, search blueman... use tab to navigate and space to select
[22:37] <Magicsack_> i can see software update, tried that and got brokencount<0 too
[22:37] <Bashing-om> skinux: that is correct, however, sda8 has now been reallocated to storage, I am afraid to mess with efi to mess up Windows's boot code.
[22:38] <MoPac> Magicsack_: Right, so in ZTerminal, what happens if you type sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager?
[22:38] <Magicsack_> it says error E: Does not recognise
[22:39] <MoPac> Magicsack_: do any commands work?
[22:40] <Magicsack_> when i typed sudo, it did ask me for pw, then i tried that a second time, nowt..
[22:40] <MoPac> Magicsack_: try just sudo apt-get update
[22:41] <Magicsack_> i means having to close ff, but will do
[22:41] <Jewel> It won't run it with space
[22:44] <Magicsack> hopefully im back ?
[22:44] <MonkeyDust> Jewel  try the enter key when blueman is selected
[22:45] <Magicsack> failed to get cd:\\ rom. Wont run apt-get update
[22:45] <MoPac> Magicsack: hmm, odd. One sec
[22:46] <MonkeyDust> Jewel  try ctrl-alt T, sudo apt-get install blueman
[22:47] <MoPac> Magicsack: okay, go to the Zterminal and type "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list .  Comment out or delete the entry about cdrom
[22:48] <MoPac> Magicsack: if "nano" doesn't work, try gedit or whatever editor you can get working on that sources.list file
[22:48] <jhutchins> Magicsack: \ != /
[22:50] <Magicsack__> back
[22:50] <MoPac> jhutchins: probably not a relevant quibble. I assume what he's run into is http://askubuntu.com/questions/296976/upgrade-from-ubuntu-12-10-to-13-04-failed-to-fetch-cdrom-ubuntu-12-10-quanta
[22:50] <MoPac> Magicsack__: did it work for you?
[22:50] <Magicsack__> i have access to 2 terminsals UXterm & Xterm. Tried running the update again
[22:51] <Magicsack__> it run the normal checks etc, then does not recognise
[22:52] <MoPac> Magicsack__: still talking about a CDROM, or something else?
[22:52] <Jewel> He would let me type the last nu,
[22:52] <Jewel> He would let me type the last numbers of my password
[22:52] <Magicsack__> shame i cant post a screen shot..
[22:52] <Magicsack__> but let me get wording for you
[22:54] <l1ckr> greetings
[22:54] <nooob> l1ckr: hi
[22:55] <l1ckr> I've got a question about my Acer aspire on ao756 which is running ubuntu 12.04
[22:55] <Magicsack> etinurt escaped
[22:55] <l1ckr> can someone help me?
[22:55] <spearhead> !ask | l1ckr
[22:55] <l1ckr> or am i in the wrong channel?
[22:56] <MoPac> Magicsack: is that what the terminal says when you are running apt-get update?
[22:56] <Magicsack> W: Failed to fetch cdrom:/ ubuntu 13.1_saucy salaman and below that E: Some indexes failed to download
[22:56] <Magicsack> exactly that
[22:56] <l1ckr> my apollogies
[22:56] <MoPac> Magicsack: have you been able to edit the sources.list file?
[22:57] <JokesOnYou77> Hi all
[22:57] <Magicsack> not done that before
[22:57] <nooob> http://m.imgur.com/GbEspuX,8xsaqcJ,mbrD4Oy  http://m.imgur.com/htUqJBserror does anyone know what these screens mean? My it happens whennever I boot to Ubuntu all of the sudden after 5 months of use. The last one is from recovery mode
[22:58] <MoPac> Magicsack: okay, so in the terminal, type "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" . Comment out the line in that file about a CD rom
[23:00] <JokesOnYou77> I have 4 drives in my system: windows SSD; Ubuntu SSD, NTFS Data Drive, NTFS Data drive.  I have my fstab configured with ntfs-3g so that everything is mounted at boot but now I am reinstallign windows and I may have to switch wich SATA ports the drives are plugged into.  Will it cause problems for mouting my drives if I change the SATA port they are plugged into on my motherboard AND will I have problems booting if I chan
[23:00] <JokesOnYou77> ge the port my ubuntu boot drive is plugged into (i.e. GRUB)?
[23:00] <Tubby> !ops
[23:00] <l1ckr> I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 on an Acer Aspire One AO756-2617. My Screen is very bright and I would like to turn down the brightness but the hotkeys on my keyboard that are supposed to do that do nothing. I've tried editing the /etc/default/grub file with the suggestion that i got when i googled the issue but to no avail.
[23:01] <Tubby> !staff
[23:01] <Jewel> Can someone help me please? I downloaded ubuntu 12.04 today but the mouse isn't working (wireless usb)
[23:01] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: possible an error with your hard drive. could you pastebin the output of: dmesg
[23:01] <Beldar> Tubby, what is your issue there are other channels for staff?
[23:02] <milamber>  Jewel: what is the name brand and model of the mouse?
[23:02] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: yeah, is that from recovery mode?
[23:02] <Magicsack__> Mo, I did the command and it opened a box up with a few things below it
[23:02] <Jewel> Maxxier
[23:03] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: is it not allowing you to log in now?
[23:03] <Mage_Dude> I'm missing something simple. Servername is in DNS and responds to ping, I've setup an alias in DNS but the server itself doesn't seem to respond to a ping request for the alias name. I don't think I need to add an entry on the server hosts file, but I'm not sure how to tell the server respond to the following list of hostnames.
[23:04] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: how do I used mesh if I cannot get to a terminal?
[23:04] <FreewheelinFrank> most documentation is for earlier versions, is it still valid for 13.10?
[23:05] <MoPac> Magicsack__: okay... could you be more specific? Were you able to delete or comment out the line in the file dealing with the cd rom?
[23:05] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: can you boot a live cd?
[23:05] <spearhead> JokesOnYou77, there should not be a problem changing the ports the ssds are plugged into, but if you are reinstalling windows then you will have to update grub when you are done, the easiest way to do that is to boot to a live cd...
[23:06] <Beldar> FreewheelinFrank, If applicable across other releases it should say so.
[23:06] <spearhead> JokesOnYou77, how are the drives identified in fstab? with dev name like /dev/sda1 or with the uuid?
[23:06] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: I think all I have at the moment is tails
[23:07] <JokesOnYou77> spearhead, Ok, I've updated grub via usb before.  And they are identified my UUID
[23:07] <spearhead> ok, the uuid won't change based on what port it is plugged into... there should't be a problem.
[23:08] <JokesOnYou77> spearhead, part of the reason I'm concerned is that the shared data drives are NTFS so I wasn't sure.  But if Mobo port doesn't effect UUID then I should be fine
[23:08] <Magicsack__> Mo, when I ran that command, it literally came up with a blanc black screen and like a notepad only
[23:08] <Magicsack__> with no other text
[23:09] <spearhead> JokesOnYou77, yeah, the uuid is solely based on the drive, I have a couple external hard drives that are mounted on boot using the uuid and I can change what usb port they are on and it doesn't effect it at all.
[23:10] <MoPac> Magicsack__: and you're sure that the file was /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[23:10] <Magicsack__> it was mo, i wrote it down to be exact
[23:10] <skinux> Wait.If you're referring to "Storage Volume", I don't believe that partition is actually being used for anything unless it's swap.
[23:11] <JokesOnYou77> spearhead, that sounds perfect then.  I am having such a PITA trying to fix hard drive controller issues on my mobo and not having to worry about my linux system just makes everything a little easier.  If I didn't play games I really think I would just give windows the boot.  Thanks for your help spearhead
[23:11] <Magicsack__> sudo nano /etc/apt/source.lis
[23:11] <jjavaholic> The backend exited unexpectedly. This is a serious error as the spawned backend did not complete the pending transaction. how can I repair this?
[23:11] <MoPac> Magicsack__: it's "sources.list"
[23:11] <nooob> hitsujiTMO:  will tails be sufficient?
[23:11] <Beldar> Magicsack__, Tab complete the nicks
[23:12] <skinux> In fact, sda8 only contains "Lost+found" which is a Ubuntu directory. I have no idea why there is anything on that partition at all.
[23:12] <spearhead> JokesOnYou77, np, yeah, I gave windows the boot a long time ago and won't be going back for anything... Steam is on Linux now so there really isn't a reason to for me...
[23:12] <hitsujiTMO> !text | nooob can you try this
[23:13] <skinux> Only way Windows comes into play is I used a Windows software to create that partition.
[23:13] <JokesOnYou77> spearhead, just not enough games are compatible yet.  But when game streaming comes out of beta I only have to run one windos system :)
[23:13] <skinux> And, I have EFI protection mode on, so if anything were to happen to screw up Windows it would be automatically reversed.
[23:14] <skinux> So, I should be able to simply reformat sda8 as swap and be fine. Although, I think it would be odd to have such a large swap partition because I have at least 2G of RAM.
[23:15] <Bashing-om> skinux: I am .. but sda8 is now with filetype "ext3", if there is no data on the disk, AND you have not encrpyted your /home directory, then it is possible to revert sda8 back as swap.
[23:17] <nooob> ubottu:   hitsujiTMO error: can't find command 'text'
[23:17] <skinux> Well, home directory is encrypted if I logout or shut down the system.
[23:17] <Magicsack__> i deleted that line Mo, but thats it for now
[23:17] <Magicsack__> the bit was at the top
[23:17] <Bashing-om> skinux: swap size of 4 gigs should be plenty. Lemme go back and look at the pasties.
[23:18] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: error: can't find command 'text'
[23:18] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: reboot. edit the grub entry with 'e'. add the word text to the linux boot line after quiet splash, hit f10 to boot
[23:18] <Bashing-om> skinux: before you can reformat to swap, the encrption must be dealt with.
[23:19] <MoPac> Magicsack__: so now when you run "sudo apt-get update" or "sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager" , does anything work?
[23:19] <Magicsack__> ive finally managed to minimize screen so that i can see gnu nano 2.2.6
[23:19] <Magicsack__> how do i save the deleted line?
[23:20] <Magicsack__> can i just come out of it and it will auto save?
[23:21] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: I am in the grub menu and I have the option between my installed kernels, recovery mode, advanced options and system setup, how do I get to the entry with the e
[23:21] <milamber> Magicsack__: ctrl + x, then y
[23:21] <milamber> Magicsack__: then enter
[23:21] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: while highlighting the default kernel. hit e on the keyboard
[23:23] <jjavaholic> which Keyboard layout does/should grub menu recognise?
[23:23] <MoPac> Magicsack__: If you hit ctrl-X, it will prompt you to save it
[23:23] <jjavaholic> if you are using a dvorak keyboard will this be picked up?
[23:23] <MoPac> Magicsack__: you can usually just hit ctrl-x when you're done editing, and then enter
[23:24] <Bashing-om> skinux: for guidance: http://askubuntu.com/questions/56843/could-not-mount-dev-mapper-cryptswap1 <- no partition sizes known at this time, pastebin ->sudo fdisk -l <- .
[23:24] <Beldar> jjavaholic, Whatever keyboard you set to use in ubuntu should be recognized.
[23:25] <jjavaholic> where is does grub pick it's keyboard information from?
[23:25] <Magicsack__> now that i deleted that line, i ran the compiz line and it say unable to locate package
[23:26] <Beldar> jjavaholic, Is this a theoretical or actual problem, always use nicks here if addressing another.
[23:27] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: done,I have logged I successfully
[23:27] <webnet> how do i stream to a DLNA enabled device from ubuntu»
[23:27] <webnet> ?
[23:27] <MoPac> Magicsack__: Let's see if it can locate any package. Try sudo apt-get install nano
[23:28] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: you got a usb key handy?
[23:28] <jjavaholic> I always find myself when needing to adjust grub information wanting to know ahead of time which key to press
[23:28] <jjavaholic> I'm used to looking down and then transposing qwerty over my actual layout.
[23:29] <Magicsack__> it says 0 upgraded 0 newly installed and232 not upgraded
[23:29] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: I have a usb drive
[23:29] <jjavaholic> actual and thorectical
[23:29] <Beldar> !who | jjavaholic
[23:29] <jjavaholic> it does happen to me alot but it is normally too late to actually do anything about it
[23:30] <Flunder> hi
[23:30] <webnet> how do i stream to a DLNA enabled device from ubuntu?
[23:30] <zack__> Can anyone answer a quick question: Pretty much a linux noob and I didnt notice that when installing ubuntu server that it put the MBR on my flash drive instead of the hard drive. Best way to change this?
[23:30] <raiderturbo> webnet: search for PS3 Media Server
[23:31] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: so what do I do now?
[23:31] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: insert it and mount it. prob, sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt                        then you can dump dmesg to the usb key and pastebinit grom the comp your using now.   dump dmesg with: dmesg > /mnt/dmesg.txt
[23:31] <Magicsack__> MoPak: i tried sudo apt-get install firexox and it appeard to run that one
[23:31] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: I am using my phone
[23:31] <Flunder> trying to install xorg-server but after i tar extract it and run ./configure  at the end tells me im missing a package pixman-1?
[23:31] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: ahhh
[23:31] <Magicsack__> it askes me to close all instances of ff.. Can't do that though (obviously) lol
[23:32] <zack__> im booted into ubuntu right now and both the flash drive and the hard drive its installed on (obviously) are mounted
[23:32] <jjavaholic> it was a still open question
[23:32] <jjavaholic> open to all.
[23:32] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: ok. you got curl installed?
[23:32] <milamber> Flunder: why are you installing from source?
[23:32] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: no, but I can take pictures
[23:32] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: dmesg hAS TOO MUCH INFO
[23:32] <hitsujiTMO> woops caps
[23:33] <Bashing-om> zack__: On the server partitioning, do you have a separate /boot partition ?
[23:33] <zack__> I literalyl just booted into the OS a few minutes ago so if its not included with ubuntu then I dont have it
[23:33] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: caps was warranted
[23:33] <zack__> Yes there is a boot partition. I let the install partition it automatically and it made a boot partition
[23:34] <zack__> partition type: bios boot partition
[23:34] <zack__> its 1mb
[23:35] <Bashing-om> zack__: make sure where we are to install grub .. pastbin terminal output of -> fdisk -lu <- .
[23:35] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: I guess I might as well try update, upgrade and purge since I have control now
[23:35] <skinux> Okay, I've re-labeled sda8 as swap.
[23:35] <MoPac> Magicsack__: so what happens now when you type "sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager" ?  The text needs to be exact
[23:36] <skinux> Should I format it or just delete lost+found?
[23:37] <Beldar> skinux, labeling it swap does not make it a swap.
[23:37] <Bashing-om> skinux: ok, "lets see what is now, pastebin -> sudo fdisk -lu <- .
[23:37] <Beldar> skinux, You can't just open  the swap
[23:37] <BobJonkman1> OK. I've blinked off again
[23:38] <zack__> bashing, I sent you a message witht he copy and paste
[23:38] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: so now what?
[23:38] <Magicsack__> MoPac: it says has no installation candidate
[23:38] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: sorry, on phone a sec. brb
[23:38] <Magicsack__> It says it isnt available but is referred to by an other package
[23:39] <Beldar> !who | skinux
[23:40] <dgarstang1> Anyone know a way to make a Ubuntu image for Google Compute?
[23:40] <Bashing-om> zack__: we got GPT partitiong, need to use -> sudo gdisk -l <- to see those partitions .
[23:41] <Beldar> dgarstang1, THe chrome computer?
[23:41] <dgarstang1> Beldar: No, Google Compute...
[23:41] <zack__> Says gdisk command not found
[23:41] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: ok. is the system in a state that allows you to install anything right now? can you try, sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[23:41] <Kronosphere> guys, a i need the most useful and practical linux distribution
[23:41] <Flunder> milamber: still here sorry was afk?
[23:41] <Flunder> trying to figure it out lol
[23:41] <Kronosphere> pls advise
[23:41] <Flunder> Yes, I downloaded the source from the website.
[23:42] <Beldar> dgarstang1, The only google computer I know of is the chromebook
[23:42] <milamber> Flunder: do you have a specific need to build from source as opposed to using the package?
[23:42] <Kronosphere> guys, a i need the most useful and practical linux distribution
[23:42] <MoPac> Magicsack__: I'm not sure right now what the next step for you should be -- you are probably going to need to add an apt repository or package archive that contains compizconfig-settings-manager so that you can get it installed. You may also be able to download the package and install it manually.
[23:42] <MoPac> Magicsack__: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17381/unity-doesnt-load-no-launcher-no-dash-appears
[23:42] <BobJonkman1> Kronosphere: Start your search here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
[23:43] <Flunder> no.  still really new. spent last couple days reading about linux commands and tutorials.  Still really new.   I wanted to build the source cause it seemed more challenging and something I want to learn.
[23:43] <BobJonkman1> Kronosphere: The standard desktop distribution is the one best support on this channel
[23:43] <Kronosphere> thanks BobJonkman1
[23:44] <skinux> Here it is: http://pastebin.com/pUU4ndtY
[23:44] <Magicsack__> hmm I can try that Mo. I even have the disk with 13.1 on, but wont run it. So is there a command to install an apt repos?
[23:44] <zack__> Bashing, I apparently dont have gdisk
[23:44] <dgarstang1> Beldar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_compute_engine
[23:44] <Flunder> Should I just install it using a package?
[23:45] <Beldar> Magicsack__, Use full nicks, abbreviations do not notify the person you are addressing.
[23:45] <geus> Kronosphere, or try Lubuntu, fast and small(er) footprint.
[23:45] <olabaz> Is there a way to sync my linux desktop with my linux laptop?
[23:46] <MoPac> Magicsack__: generally it's sudo apt-add-repository [name of the PPA] , or you just add it as a deb line to apt-get sources.list
[23:46] <milamber> Flunder: unless there is a specific reason you have not to, then yes. that is the supported method here: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
[23:46] <MoPac> Sorry I can't help you more right now.
[23:46] <milamber> Flunder: but i have to ask why you are installing the xorg server. do you want a full desktop? if so, there are other commands that will get you that
[23:46] <Bashing-om> zack__: -> sudo apt-get install gdisk <- .
[23:46] <zack__> Just did that
[23:47] <zack__> I tried to run the command but it said problem opening -l for reading. Specified file is not found
[23:47] <kostkon> olabaz, for files use a cloud service, e.g. ubuntu one, for apps, enable the option in the software centre
[23:48] <Flunder> Oh, I am using virtualbox VM running ubuntu and I wanted to use the "shared clipboard" feature.
[23:48] <olabaz> kostkon: ok i'll look into those, thanks
[23:48] <milamber> olabaz: get the usb issue sorted?
[23:48] <olabaz> milamber: no, i ended up getting an external cd drive and then using a cd  -_-
[23:48] <nooob> Hi?
[23:48] <Flunder> I tried to install the package, but said I was missing X.org or something similar.
[23:48] <Bashing-om> skinux: looking at your /pUU4ndtY
[23:49] <Beldar> olabaz, http://askubuntu.com/questions/204468/how-to-sync-two-computers-daily
[23:49] <nooob> hitsujiTMO:  yes, it is installing
[23:49] <milamber> Flunder: what is the host os?
[23:49] <Flunder> windows 7
[23:50] <Flunder> 64 bit
[23:50] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: done
[23:50] <runnyspot> i'm having trouble with brightness control on my new t440s... others seem to have it working okay but i just get tildes output to the console. brightness control works manually through system settings slider. any pointers?
[23:51] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: once done: dmesg | pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/dmesg.0
[23:51] <Bashing-om> skinux: Ooops, GPT partitioning,, need to use a differennt tool. -> sudo gdisk -l <- .
[23:51] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: the 2 url, paste here
[23:51] <zack__> bashing, that command produced an error for me
[23:51] <loa> can't understand, i am trying to execute bash script from .desktop file, but i recieve that it can't execute it becouse it have no right, but i set chmod +x on that bash script, and i can run it from command line
[23:51] <zack__> said the specified file does not exist
[23:52] <Bashing-om> zack__: OK (gpt is not my norm) ,, try it as -> sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda <- .
[23:52] <glitsj16> Magicsack_: didn't follow your complete thread with MoPac, but are you looking to install compizconfig-settings-manager? and on what version of ubuntu if so?
[23:53] <milamber> Flunder: and what ubuntu image are you using?
[23:53] <millerti> How badly to Ubuntu upgrades tend to go for relatively new installs?  I keep reading horror stories.  I have 12.10 server, and I want 13.10 server.  It looks like I can go to 13.04 first and then to 13.10.  How well should I expect that to work?
[23:53] <zack__> I pasted you the ouput
[23:54] <Bashing-om> skinux: correcvt the commnad to be ->sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda <-
[23:54] <Bashing-om> zack__: looking
[23:55] <Kuro-Maii> hello
[23:56] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6771124
[23:56] <millerti> Why does "do-release-upgrade" say "No new release found"?
[23:56] <Kuro-Maii> is there a way to block a user from using an application?
[23:57] <Kuro-Maii> millerti, Are you on ubuntu 13.10?
[23:57] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: is there a second url?
[23:57] <milamber> Flunder: http://askubuntu.com/questions/63420/how-to-fix-virtualboxs-copy-and-paste-to-host-machine
[23:57] <millerti> I want to get to 13.10, but I'm on 12.10 LTS
[23:58] <Flunder> milamber: I'm using ubuntu 12.10 LTS 32 bit
[23:58] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: sorry, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6771124
[23:59] <SuperLag> If you've downloaded a .deb file that's newer that what is in the repos, is there any way to check what dependencies that .deb files will pull down, *without* installing it?
[23:59] <nooob> hitsujiTMO: the two are the same except the last digit is a 3 and a 4
[23:59] <hitsujiTMO> nooob: cool. looking now
[23:59] <Kuro-Maii> millerti, 12.10 is not an LTS but nevertheless that is a new one to me...
