| netcrash | Hello, any sugestion on what the problem here can be ? apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="libvirt-5f25bcb4-1134-a35d-2ae3-dd957e00c070" name="/proc/2459/auxv" pid=2459 comm="kvm-spice" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" | 01:35 |
| holstein | netcrash: "denied" makes me think permissions.. | 01:37 |
| netcrash | yes, but I was looking into the libvirt config, and it seems ok | 01:37 |
| netcrash | apparmor libvirt config that is | 01:38 |
| holstein | netcrash: i usually look for and apply upgades, then test with the user config out of the equation | 01:38 |
| ezrhino | Hello. Does a command exist to tell Ubuntu to boot to Windows by default @ startup? Thank you very much | 02:05 |
| holstein | !grub | ezrhino | 02:06 |
| ubottu | ezrhino: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 02:06 |
| holstein | ezrhino: you'll be able to change the default booting OS if you like.. i usually just disable the automatic timer | 02:06 |
| ezrhino | well i do like the choice though, i just want position 1 for windows | 02:07 |
| ezrhino | ty for that info as well | 02:07 |
| holstein | ezrhino: sure.. and, you can do that if you like | 02:08 |
| ezrhino | so i need to restore the GRUB? | 02:08 |

| cookiedavis | Hi there, what is the best hardware to put xubuntu on? For instance, if I install it on my Dell, will I have driver issues? | 07:31 |
| baizon | cookiedavis: it depends on the hardware | 08:00 |
| cookiedavis | If costs wasn't an issue for a laptop, what would you use? | 08:00 |
| baizon | it depends :) | 08:01 |
| Sysi | system76 | 08:01 |
| Sysi | or something dell ships with ubuntu | 08:02 |
| cookiedavis | Really? The ship with Ubuntu? | 08:02 |
| cfhowlett | Sysi, Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition | 08:02 |
| cookiedavis | Like an AlienWare? | 08:02 |
| Sysi | anything with intel integrated graphics and no-broadcom wireless should work sweetly OOTB | 08:03 |
| Sysi | cookiedavis: what cfhowlett said | 08:03 |
| Sysi | preferably something that still has legacy boot support (not just uefi) | 08:04 |
| cookiedavis | That's impressive Dell is shipping out with Ubuntu. Wish Lenovo would do the same. | 08:04 |

| Zampson | Hey I just set up a second screen on Xubuntu 13.10, and I had to swap which sides the monitors were on, and it worked but it didn't apply to the log in screen. On the login screen I have to move the cursor off the far sides of the screen and it stops in the centre. | 14:14 |
| starrats | HELP AGAIN PLEASE: Still trying to get a full screen image without the fonts being stretched. Does anyone here know what i mean and how to get rid of the 'stretched' look on the fonts? | 14:25 |
| xubuntu047 | any idea on an ETA for the drop box menu update? "copy public link" is still missing!? | 14:40 |

| Dureiken | Hi there, how can I install last AMD Catalyst driver please ? :) | 18:57 |
| nicfer | why can't I add new entries on the app menu? I go to right click on the 'start button', properties, edit menu, go to the relevant tab, press 'new element', I add name and command, press 'OK' button and nothing happens | 18:59 |
| Broken_User | question guys: Im running off the live usb and i cant access my volume control, is this normal or will i need audio drivers after install? | 21:13 |
| holstein | Broken_User: cant access volume control only? or have no sound at all? what are you trying to use to control the audio? | 21:14 |
| Broken_User | trying to adjust volume from... hell i forget what its called, the main bar at the top of the screen | 21:15 |
| holstein | Broken_User: so, you have sound or no? | 21:16 |
| Broken_User | hmmm volume does change when i use my volume control keys on my keyboard | 21:16 |
| Broken_User | i have to find something to test it with | 21:16 |
| Broken_User | yeah sound works | 21:20 |
| Broken_User | just volume control interface then | 21:21 |
| barnes9122 | i think you need to install xfce4-mixer | 21:23 |
| barnes9122 | using apt | 21:23 |
| holstein | shouldnt need to add anything.. i mean, you can if you want, but its likely the applet is pointing to something that is not controling the volume you want to control | 21:24 |
| Broken_User | i'll look into it after install finishes, worst case scenario i just use my hardware keys, thanks guys | 21:25 |
| barnes9122 | or you can use alsamixer in a terminal | 21:25 |
| barnes9122 | to adjust | 21:25 |
| mechanoid | this is getting frustrating... i've installed 12.10 several times, try to run 'sudo apt-get update', and receive 'E: GPG error: http://extras.ubuntu.com quantal Release: The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2' | 21:31 |
| mechanoid | i've checked the ubuntu forums, checked /etc/apt/sources.list,... | 21:32 |
| mechanoid | there isn't a lot returned via search, but i can't be the only one... | 21:33 |
| holstein | !12.10 | 21:36 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 12.10 (Quantal Quetzal) is the current stable release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.10/ - Release notes: http://ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/12.10 - Support in #ubuntu | 21:36 |
| holstein | i thought 12.10 was EOL.. | 21:36 |
| holstein | i guess its got a few more months.. | 21:36 |
| mechanoid | 13.* doesn't play well with cgminer (litecoin mining rig) | 21:36 |
| holstein | mechanoid: could be your connection. could be the repos are just down temporarily. you can try the repos from the live CD.. no need to keep reinstalling | 21:37 |
| holstein | mechanoid: ok.. but, i would prefer 12.04 to 12.10.. | 21:37 |
| mechanoid | *nod* | 21:37 |
| mechanoid | LTS | 21:37 |
| mechanoid | oh wow, how embarassing... "could be your connection." unplugged from my wired work network, and connected to our guest wireless... A OK | 21:47 |
| holstein | mechanoid: cheers! | 21:48 |
| Dureiken | Hi there, someone here to help me install Xubuntu on usb key ? I did it but it doesn't boot (black screen with blanking cursor). Thanks | 22:36 |
| holstein | Dureiken: so, you used something like a usb stick or cd using the live installation iso to boot, and then choose a usb stick as the installation media? you reboot, and see grub on the stick? and no desktop loads? | 22:38 |
| Dureiken | I installed from a live usb key | 22:38 |
| Dureiken | on other usb key | 22:38 |
| Dureiken | I boot and I have black screen with blank cursor blinking | 22:38 |
| Dureiken | no more | 22:38 |
| holstein | Dureiken: you see the grub menu? | 22:38 |
| Dureiken | no | 22:38 |
| Dureiken | the blue one | 22:38 |
| Dureiken | with install/memtest | 22:39 |
| Robalinho34 | hello I can have internet in my xubunto | 22:39 |
| holstein | Dureiken: i would try and make certain grub is on the device.. the default would be to install to an internal hard drive | 22:39 |
| holstein | Robalinho34: nothing about xubuntu is preventing your internet from working | 22:39 |
| Dureiken | how could I do that | 22:39 |
| holstein | Dureiken: i would try boot repair from a live CD.. that recently sorted out an sd card i was trying to boot | 22:39 |
| Dureiken | I made 3 partitions ( ext4 / swap and ext4/home) | 22:40 |
| holstein | Dureiken: wont matter.. if you installed correctly, and its capable of booting, it'll boot | 22:40 |
| Dureiken | I'm booting on live usb key | 22:40 |
| holstein | Dureiken: you'll need a boot loader, and i typically want them on the stick | 22:40 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 22:40 |
| holstein | Dureiken: you can use ^^ from the stick to specify grub on the usb stick you are trying to install onto | 22:41 |
| Robalinho34 | i have conect the cabel to my net bord and nothing | 22:41 |
| Dureiken | I'm on live linux trying boot repair | 22:41 |
| holstein | Robalinho34: i would confirm the network is up, and sening dhcp requests and all that.. try that with another machine.. try a live CD on the hardware | 22:41 |
| Robalinho34 | ok | 22:42 |
| Dureiken | holstein : its repairing :) | 22:44 |
| Dureiken | holstein : thanks a lot it seems to work I saw grub this time | 22:45 |
| Dureiken | it works, I'm on xubuntu | 22:46 |
| holstein | Dureiken: cheers.. you might need to repair whatever the default installation may have broke on the main hard drive | 22:46 |
| Dureiken | how would I do that | 22:47 |
| Dureiken | I have black screen now :) I love :p | 22:47 |
| holstein | Dureiken: depends on what was on the disk | 22:47 |
| Dureiken | nothing | 22:47 |
| holstein | Dureiken: if it was linux, you can use the same tool from before | 22:47 |
| Dureiken | fresh install | 22:48 |
| holstein | Dureiken: im not following you | 22:48 |
| Dureiken | seems to work :) | 22:50 |
| Dureiken | but huge lags, maybe usb speed ? | 22:50 |
| holstein | Dureiken: that or the system.. could be anything.. | 22:50 |
| holstein | Dureiken: i wouldnt say "huge" lags about my usb stick installs | 22:50 |
| Dureiken | could I install last catalyst drivers ? | 22:51 |
| Dureiken | just downloading from website and use them ? | 22:51 |
| Dureiken | or I need dependencies ? | 22:51 |
| holstein | !ati | Dureiken | 22:52 |
| ubottu | Dureiken: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 22:52 |
| holstein | personally, on the stick install, i would go with the open drivers | 22:52 |
| holstein | the ones you are using right now | 22:52 |
| Dureiken | ok :) | 22:55 |
| Dureiken | is that normal that I can't install anything | 22:55 |
| Dureiken | I tried openssh-serv | 22:55 |
| Dureiken | unavailable | 22:55 |
| Dureiken | byobu, same | 22:55 |
| holstein | Dureiken: thats not a package name, so, sure | 22:55 |
| holstein | !info openssh-server | 22:56 |
| ubottu | openssh-server (source: openssh): secure shell (SSH) server, for secure access from remote machines. In component main, is optional. Version 1:6.2p2-6ubuntu0.1 (saucy), package size 252 kB, installed size 777 kB | 22:56 |
| holstein | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 22:56 |
| holstein | ^^ that should do it | 22:56 |
| Dureiken | first thing to do :p | 22:57 |
| Dureiken | holstein : do you advice sudo apt-get upgrade after ? | 23:01 |
| Dureiken | for the night ? :) | 23:01 |
| starrats | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/trusty/alpha-2/ here's a new one for all of you, if you seen it, sorry for the old new news | 23:07 |
| holstein | Dureiken: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 23:23 |
| Dureiken | dist is for what ? | 23:23 |
| holstein | Dureiken: or, however you want to upgrade | 23:23 |
| holstein | Dureiken: its not a dist-upgrade.. you can, and are encouraged to research any commands before copy pasting them | 23:24 |
| holstein | dist-upgrade just upgrades all the packages | 23:24 |
| holstein | not the distro | 23:24 |
