[00:00] kalekip1_: to make that transparent? xfce4-terminal to launch it, right-click to prefs > appearance tab [00:00] stuppy: so you type a username and then it stalls? [00:01] glitsj16: No, the installation :p [00:01] kalekip1_: sudo apt-get install xfce4-terminal [00:02] Oh, lol.. I should've just guessed it. [00:02] no, I can login at the command prompt, but I can't get out of the lock screen in the session, no password dialog. And I don't wt to kill the sessionmid dist-upgrade. [00:05] glitsj16: Thanks. I'll just use xfce4-terminal :/ [00:05] glitsj16: And how can I set it as default? :P [00:05] Hi there, when asked to download 32-bit development libraries, what packages is it asking me to install? [00:07] How does one get ati fglrx and unity to play nice? [00:07] in 13.10 [00:09] Is there a way to login as another user, but have their desktop show up in a window of the current user? [00:09] @daftykins - nevermind. After about 45 minutes of non-reponse, it is now un-hung and letting me back in. Quick disable screen shutoff and curse my old computer; thanks for responding. [00:09] stuppy: np :) good luck with it [00:09] kalekip1_: from terminal .. sudo update-alternatives –config x-terminal-emulator .. there's also a GUI app for this called galternatives [00:10] wlightning-fuel: nope, not without heavy duty. you could setup nxclient/nxserver, etc. [00:10] BetaSoul: depends on weather ATI still supports the card. ->lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 vga . [00:11] Bashing-om: Mobility Radeon HD 5650. [00:12] glitsj16: Thanks again. [00:12] Driver installed, and reads the correct card, but unity won't start [00:12] kalekip1_: just for fun and general fyi --> http://www.webupd8.org/2013/01/how-to-use-xfce4-terminal-06x-as-drop.html to use drop-down functionality if you're so inclined :p [00:13] kalekip1_: you're welcome, that was quite the ordeal to get a transparent terminal emulator.. [00:14] glitsj16: I have two problems. One problem I previously also had and another small problem. The small problem is that I want I-beam instead of the []. The greater problem is that many menu items are disabled for me. [00:14] (Unless I open a program with root ofcourse) [00:15] I'm an admin... :/ [00:15] im looking for a good alternative to devede, faster and with better quality output, if anyone has a good recommendation it would be appreciatted === charles_ is now known as Guest69321 [00:15] kalekip1_: afraid i don't know about I-beam .. disabled menu items hmm, in unity? [00:16] Whats "I-beam", and "[]"? [00:16] glitsj16: Yes. (I-beam is the "|" instead of the squary thing) [00:16] Not sure how to explain it. You also see that in the chat here. [00:16] kalekip1_: that much i get, the beaming part escapes me :p [00:17] that's what it's called (I guess) [00:17] BetaSoul: Not sure at all, yuk, see : http://askubuntu.com/questions/387969/graphics-card-driver-issues-ati-radeon-hd-4200 - last paragraph. Still I be looking. [00:18] Bashing-om: Looks like I need the beta driver, hoever, I can't remove the one that's already installed. [00:20] Also, what's wrong with this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iyxpcgsyow6utwu/Ubuntu%20-%20users%20bug.png ? [00:23] bekks, hmm.. did figure it out eventually.. aparently all you have to do is dm-tool add-nested-seat [00:23] (with Xephyr installed) [00:27] Hi, Im having issues with ubuntu 12.04LTS & want to try a fresh reinstall after backing my data up, whats the easiest way to do this? [00:27] kalekip1_: never saw that effect before, looks like it might be a theme issue .. do you see it when you change themes? [00:27] nigel: Insert the installation medium, install. [00:27] glitsj16: I never changed my theme. [00:27] bekks: ok, so it will re-write everything? [00:27] can you install linux ubuntu on a virtual machine like oracle? [00:28] glitsj16: I have 2 apps though: Ubuntu Tweak and Unity Tweak Tool [00:28] nigel: Of course. You said "after backing up..." - so I have to assume you already cretaed a full backup. [00:29] kalekip1_: i see, that's the default Adwaita theme indeed .. just wondered if you notice any change when changing temporarily [00:29] ok thanks for your help :) [00:30] NO MOUSE CURSOR in 12.04 lts. tried to install on a very old single processor computer, an ASUS K8V mb. There is no pointer, just a semi transparent box that disappears on a black background or an all white background. [00:30] glitsj16: Ambiance :p No, it didn't fix it. [00:30] kalekip1_: are you running a vanilla ubuntu or added some gnome related PPA's perhaps? [00:31] kalekip1_: just guessing here though [00:31] glitsj16: I think I did. Can I see a list somewhere? [00:32] kalekip1_: run .. software-properties-gtk and check the 'software tab' [00:32] Sup [00:33] glitsj16: Yes, I have a few. Can I safely uncheck them all? [00:33] kalekip1_: there's a better way to purge PPA's, unchecking there will not purge any packages installed from them [00:33] !ppa-purge | kalekip1_ [00:33] kalekip1_: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [00:34] glitsj16: It's so late now. :P [00:34] hello, I just installed amd's fglrx-updates and fglrx-amdcccle-updates from apt, but I cant's see the catalyst control panel anywhere, nor I think is the binary in /usr/bin [00:34] kalekip1_: that might explain the earlier trouble with gnome-terminal now i think of it [00:34] Crap. [00:35] kalekip1_: no need to do it now, just so you know where to start looking for answers [00:35] There is also something wrong with my internet :/ [00:35] I can't download packages and can't surf on the internet. I can stream a video and chat though [00:35] very weird [00:35] bad day at the office all together .. [00:36] Hello, does anybody know have to install Java on Virtualbox running Ubuntu 12.10? [00:36] glitsj16: Well, I'm at home :p [00:36] glitsj16: Hopefully a reboot will fix SOMEthing. [00:37] BetaSoul: Looking about, seems that the ATI card is no longer supported by (AMD), as to reemoving the current driver(s), -integrated- I do not know. Others will have to advise - so you can go to the open source driver that does support that card. === Guest81167 is now known as VlanX [00:37] kalekip1_: not a bad idea, seems you have a few things confused [00:37] I´m heading off now.

[00:45] It has to be that specific version of PHP [00:45] Hi everyone :) [00:46] foobar1009: what version of ubuntu are you on? [00:47] somsip, 12.10 [00:47] !info php5 quantal [00:47] php5 (source: php5): server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage). In component main, is optional. Version 5.4.6-1ubuntu1.5 (quantal), package size 1 kB, installed size 21 kB [00:47] foobar1009: and you *really* want 3.5.8??? [00:47] What is the best configuration management software for linux like Microsoft SCCM? [00:47] somsip, I thas to be 3.5.8 because the server that I am writing code for runs that version [00:48] Why they are using such an old version of PHP I dont know [00:48] foobar1009: *3*.5.8? That's evil. I'd suggest setting up a VM for that, but where you get a version that old, I have no idea [00:48] somsip, I guess I'll just ask them to make me a shell account on the server so I can develop for it [00:51] I heard of Ubuntu Landscape and Red Hat Satellite but these software aren't free! [00:52] Hello. [00:52] Hey guys, my friend just got a new laptop with windows pre-installed. ASUS G750jx-T4035H (ROG) and I want to install Ubuntu on it, as a seperate partition. I figured it should be rather easy, but the installation doesn't even recognize that there is Windows installed on the machine? [00:53] I need some help. I am unable to login graphically [00:53] xip: details [00:53] ? [00:53] dupingping86: /join #ubuntu-mir [00:53] ok Logan [00:53] xip have you got the live cd loaded now on the laptop? [00:54] No, but I can do that. Could you help me out? [00:54] xip yup [00:55] Alright just a moment then I'll boot it up [00:55] XIP: most new laptops come with windows 8 and windows 8 uses EFI to lock the HDD so you need to start the BIO and change the setting to legacy boot so ubuntu can recognize the HDD [00:55] xip load the live cdand pop into "try ubuntu" [00:56] GIMP is worst than just bad [00:56] aouldr78: thats completely wrong [00:57] Sorry, the model is ASUS G750JW-T4030H. Well I'm waiting for the Live CD to run.. just a moment [00:57] :) that what I had to do to install Ubuntu. I know Ubuntu now supports UEFI but it needs to shutdown Windows 8 properly to be able to partition the HDD [00:58] Minnen: So, what is wrong with gimp? [00:58] idk, honestly im just mad cuz i feel it makes the simplest tasks complicated [00:59] Minnen, thats not an uncommon opinion. I know many people who say the same. [00:59] somsip, is it bad if someone is using php 3.5.8 by the way? [00:59] foobar1009: how old id that now? [01:00] *is [01:00] 4-5 years old now [01:00] somsip, its been depreciated.

[01:00] foobar1009: yeah - horribly out of date [01:00] well that means its no longer receiving security updates. That should be #1 why they should update. [01:00] oh okay then, the people im dealing with are very incompetent then [01:00] foobar1009: they need to review their servers for sure [01:00] They showed me some of their code and like half of the lines used eval statements [01:01] for no apparent reason [01:01] oh, i targeted the wrong person, sorry somsip [01:01] lazyPower: np :) [01:01] * lazyPower goes back to minding his own business [01:01] hitsujiTMO: Alright so I have the Live CD running on the laptop. So what to do from here pal? === laila is now known as lacrymology [01:02] xip sudo apt-get install pastebinit [01:02] Minnen: Image Minuplation applications are very complicated programs, they have *many* functions, sometimes it is hard to wade through so many options to get to what you want to do. [01:03] xip: sudo fdisk -l 2>&1 | pastebinit && dmesg | grep efi | pastebinit [01:03] using software raid 1, will the bootsector only be written to the primary drive? [01:03] xip those 2 commands there should produce 2 urls. can you paste both urls here [01:04] hitsujiTMO: It seems to be still loading, I'll return in a moment [01:04] I am having issues loggin in. I am unable to login normally, nor able to use 'startx' (which stops loading after a while.) [01:05] nicknick: restart the computer and while starting press Esc or Shift to get to the boot grub. When you get to the option to choose which kernel, the press letter (e) to edit the kernel grub, then add 1 or single to the line where the linux start to boot in single mode. then change your password and type reboot. [01:05] You can also press Ctrl + Alt + F1 to F6 to start another terminal [01:05] I know. [01:05] nicknicknick: what exactly do you mean by: " unable to login normall" [01:05] *normally. [01:05] As in using lightdm instead of terinal [01:06] *terminal [01:06] nicknicknick: but what exactly happens? do you get back to lightdm? [01:06] are there any C programmers here?

When I run "strace unshare --user", I see that the unshare() system call is returning EINVAL. [02:40] Is there any way to tell why that is? [02:43] One possibility, I suppose, is that the kernel I have doesn't support CLONE_NEWUSER, but that doesn't seem to make sense, since the kernel is 3.11.0-12-generic, and kernel version 3.11.0 definitely has CLONE_NEWUSER. Is there a way to tell if 3.11.0-12-generic is missing it? [02:43] Hi. 12.04(64bit). I have two HDDs(1 SSD for OS and 1 SATA for storage)My PC crashed and grub said it couldn't find the SATA volume. So I booted without it. Here is a pic of what I am up against. http://imgur.com/FCXYp2T How can I get this volume back in action? Thanks! [02:44] jcabb: can you pastebin the output of: dmesg [02:47] Arufonsu: man unshare shows no option --user and requires an argument program [02:47] hitsujiTMO: do you have an older version of util-linux than 2.24.1? [02:47] hitsujiTMO, hang on. :) [02:48] Anyway, if I run "unshare --user /bin/bash", I still get the same error. [02:48] hitsujiTMO, http://pastebin.com/CxxDfysc [02:49] Arufonsu: i have 2.20 from the repo. anything outside the repo is unsupported here [02:49] * Arufonsu nods. [02:50] Arufonsu: can you pastebin: man unshare [02:51] Yeah, figured I'd ask here because it seems like a problem with the kernel, and it's an Ubuntu kernel. But yeah, lemme paste that real quick. [02:52] Arufonsu, any ideas? [02:52] Here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6841510/ [02:53] jcabb: nope, sorry. [02:53] ok [02:53] What's up? [02:55] Arufonsu: http://linux.die.net/man/2/unshare [02:56] hello! [02:56] how to get ubuntu drivers of all printers. [02:56] dupingping86: Install cups? [02:57] yes [02:57] te: yes [02:57] cups | dupingping86 [02:58] hearing yours [02:58] te: hm, yup. According to that, an invalid flag was specified. [02:58] !cups | dupingping86 [02:58] dupingping86: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu [02:58] Arufonsu: ok. that does in fact seem to be the correct usage. It could be the case that the ubuntu kernel is compiled without a necessary param. [02:59] te: not cups? [02:59] exit [02:59] dupingping86, what printer [02:59] dupingping86: Not sure what your question is.... [02:59] hitsujiTMO: yeah, that would make sense. Do you know how I might be able to find out whether my kernel supports this flag? [03:00] dupingping86: What exactly are you trying to do? Configure a printer? [03:00] dupingping86: firefox localhost:631 [03:01] Arufonsu: i'm unsure to be honest. I don't play with such low level stuff too often [03:02] hitsujiTMO: *nod* Thanks for your help. [03:02] Arufonsu: you could try installing a minline kernel [03:02] mainline* [03:03] Yeah, that's an idea. [03:07] Hello. If I have ssh in a root jail, is there a way to make it so that if the user who logs in via the jail can execute a script that will affect something outside of the jail? [03:07] I want them to be able to restart a process, but not browse the whole file system [03:08] d:) [03:08] Braden: "root jail"? === Braden is now known as Braden` [03:08] Well, a jail for ssh [03:09] They don't have root exactly [03:09] Braden`: It all depends on how you write the script. [03:09] Braden`: and who the user is. [03:09] te: How would I write the script so that only it can break the jail. [03:10] The user is Bob [03:10] [03:11] Braden`: while this may not be the best method, you could monitor a fifo in the jail and restart the process upon a psecific message in the fifo [03:11] s/psecific/specific [03:12] Wait, could the user in the jail just send a signal to the process directly? [03:14] All right, where does the kernel source go when I apt-get source it... [03:15] In the current directory? [03:15] Arufonsu, usually in /usr/src [03:16] I mean, I definitely see a directory called linux-3.11.0 in the current directory, and I definitely wouldn't normally expect it to be there. [03:16] Arufonsu: apt-get source goes to pwd. apt-get install linux-source goes to /usr/src [03:16] hitsujiTMO: *nod* [03:17] Arufonsu : find / | grep kernel [03:17] Woulda been nice if I'd known that before I installed the Linux source into some random directory. [03:17] how is it possible that `date` says the hour is 22, but the latest line in /var/log/syslog says the hour is 23? [03:17] Funny enough, the current directory was another copy of the Linux source. So now I have a source tree inside another source tree. [03:17] Jan 29 23:23:26 app01 rsyslogd-2177: imuxsock lost 17 messages from pid 11516 due to rate-limiting [03:17] Wed Jan 29 22:23:39 EST 2014 [03:17] Arufonsu: sourception [03:18] "sudo rm -r linux*" is kind of a scary-looking command. [03:19] Oh, look at this: "Picking 'linux' as source package instead of 'linux-image-3.11.0-12-generic'" Is that going to give me the right thing? [03:20] Arufonsu: yup [03:20] Arufonsu: many packages are compile from the same collective source [03:22] Whelp, the source I just downloaded clearly shows CLONE_NEWUSER as a valid flag. [03:22] I don't suppose it's possible that CLONE_NEWUSER has a different value between my kernel and util-linux? [03:23] hello [03:25] Ahhhh, here's something. [03:26] static inline int unshare_userns(unsigned long unshare_flags, struct cred **new_cred) { if (unshare_flags & CLONE_NEWUSER) return -EINVAL; return 0; } [03:26] Like, yup. That'll do it. [03:27] But, uh, that definition is in the mainline kernel's user_namespace.h as well. How does that not break user namespaces in the mainline kernel? === rww is now known as rwd [03:31] I guess it must be because fork.c doesn't include user_namespace.h. [03:32] I am having a really strange issue with my internet. I have an intel centrino 1030n and it was working fine in ubuntu before and my most recent os debain stable it actually was alot faster than the connection i got with ubuntu, but i missed the gaming and better graphic performance in ubuntu. I have tested with a few other machines and it is not the internet, but when i say try to ping a server i get the ip address really fast but when === rwd is now known as rww === bls is now known as Guest66446 [03:35] Hey, just came to check if wikipedia.org is "down" for someone else? I checked few "down-or-not" websites and they say its just me, which i do belive, but traceroute6 says network unreachable and firefox says the IP is banned..lol , this is in Finland.. [03:35] hi [03:36] reindeer: fi.wikipedia.org is up for me. [03:36] how can i install this on 13.10 : http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty/owncloud-client [03:36] ? [03:36] onizu: have you tried sudo apt-get install owncloud-client? [03:37] Arufonsu: hmm well thats odd.. maybe its justmy ISP [03:37] yeah, that installs a lower version (1.4. ) i want 1.5 [03:37] hi [03:37] which is available in trusty [03:37] someone can helpme to do a nat connection to gain internet on my other pc? [03:38] Anyone know what would cause / how to fix this when trying to attach a file in Firefox? No luck at all from google. Issue is: The specified folder does not exist or was not readable. - OK that and you get the dialog in kfile but it apparently is broken at that point, any selected file never gets passed back to Firefox. Any thoughts very much appreciated!! [03:38] onizu: http://software.opensuse.org/download/package?project=isv:ownCloud:desktop&package=owncloud-client [03:39] hitsujiTMO, that didn't work for me. I got some error at the end.. [03:39] onizu: what was the error? [03:40] hmm, don't remember. i can retry if you want [03:40] onizu: do [03:40] but wouldn't it be better to use ubuntu's repository that opensuse's ? [03:40] K`zan: 'attach a file in Firefox' .. can you elaborate on what you mean exactly? [03:41] onizu: no, since the version you want is not in the repo. [03:41] it says on the page that it is 1.5 [03:41] Source Package: owncloud-client (1.5.0+dfsg-4ubuntu1) [universe] [03:41] onizu: thats the trust repo. different repo. thats early beta [03:42] yeah [03:42] ok, i'm going to retry the opensuse one [03:42] please help me [03:42] !info owncloud-client [03:42] owncloud-client (source: owncloud-client): folder synchronization with an ownCloud server - GUI. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.0+dfsg-1.1~ubuntu1 (saucy), package size 267 kB, installed size 740 kB [03:44] Aha, I think I've totally found the solution to everything. Yeah, the Ubuntu kernel has user namespaces disabled by default. It also has XFS support enabled by default. In order for user namespaces to be enabled, XFS support must *not* be enabled. [03:44] So I'll just change this, recompile, reinstall... [03:44] 1.3 ... :( === leticia is now known as Tisha [03:48] dupingping86: what is your problem now?

[03:51] oh, it is there [03:52] onizu: the clound binary may just be under a different name [03:52] hmm.. [03:53] hitsujiTMO, do you use owncloud-client? [03:53] onizu: i used to. not atm.

[04:10] nitk: isn't 0 == root?

[04:12] SchrodingersScat, sorry what are u saying [04:12] nitk: it might want a sudo in front of that? that's my first guess. [04:13] Beldar: yeah i'm using fallback, however i think it's also now called flashback ? [04:13] Hello everyone, I have a question about ubuntu partition recovery. Where is the best channel to ask my question? [04:13] SchrodingersScat, ok thank u [04:14] Tex_Nick, Yes the name has changed not sure what it is in 13.10, in the gnome shell the window manager is mutter, I would find out what it is stock for that fallback, I suspect adding compiz may be the root of your issue, just a guess though. [04:15] EnriqueFabuloso is not my real name by the way. [04:16] Tex_Nick, When I used unity and was a full time tweak with the cube, and wobbly windows there was a window header issue, but this is a while back. [04:17] Beldar: ok compiz has been the source of many such problems in the past ... hey thanks for the input there ... i'll approach the problem from that perspective then [04:17] ok im brand new at this [04:17] have now clue how all this works [04:19] Tex_Nick, The gnome shell has a restart for the de 'alt-f2-r' it might work in the fallback, or they may be another, best of luck. ;) [04:19] there* === Jan11 is now known as ON1 [04:19] hey guys, are there certain packages for adding symbols back into PHP and/or Apache binaries so we can gdb coredumps from Apache using mod_php...the regular packages seem to have the symbols stripped out of the binaries.

[05:02] hitsujiTMO: Well, fdisk reports "HPFS/NTFS/exFAT" [05:02] vfw, wait insalling pastebinit [05:02] hitsujiTMO:yes I have an external hd usb [05:03] vfw, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6841942/ [05:03] vfw: yes. thats because the partition is of type 7: which is used for those partitions === anon is now known as SchrodingersScat [05:03] glitsj16: Sorry for delay, putting my patient to bed. On a particular forum, one has the option of attaching a file, click on "browse" button, the message "The specified folder does not exist or was not readable." appears. Click "OK" and the "File upload" dialog appears and you can select a file, Click "open", dialog closes, but file never shows up in the browser field for the file name selected. [05:03] vfw: fdisk itself doesn't read the partition. just looks at the table [05:05] miguelangello: Well, looks like you are resolving domain names all right. Hummm.... not sure [05:05] EnriqueFabuloso: best thing to do is to image the drive to a file then work on recover on that file, or a copy of it. that way more damage won't be caused and will maximise your chances of recovery [05:05] glitsj16: Only thing I found using google to search, was from 2005 and no help at all. [05:05] vfw, i know that isnt the problem like i said pages keep loading and sometimes load good [05:05] miguelangello: What other problems do you have? Any other websites you are unable to go to? === revolts is now known as Guest18582 [05:06] vfw, i cant log into hotmail [05:06] K`zan: are you seeing this oddity on firefox? [05:06] miguelangello: pastebinit /etc/resolv.conf #Send url [05:07] miguelangello: have you setup a proxy within the browser? [05:07] miguelangello: Yea, look at firefox preferences for proxy setting. [05:07] vfw, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6841967/ [05:07] glitsj16: Yes, that is the only place it has shown up. Found nothing in FF config that would affect it... [05:08] miguelangello: I see nameserver 127.0.0.1 (not 8.8.8.8) [05:09] K`zan: i don't know if it would make a difference, but in about:config there's a key called "ui.allow_platform_file_picker", try setting that to true [05:09] hitsujiTMO:okay I'll check out the links and try work it out thanks [05:09] thanks everyone [05:09] glitsj16: Will give that a go, thank you Sir! [05:10] Is anyone else having issues with the ubuntu one client on Windows 8.1? [05:11] I get "sorry, an error has occurred..." Details: TypeError Required argument 'Type' (pos 2) not found [05:12] glitsj16: It was set to true. Just for jollies, set it to false and it now works :-). [05:12] :) [05:13] glitsj16: LOL, never a dull moment in this busines :-) :-) :-), Much appreciated Sir, you got me where I needed to be! Thanks!!!!!!! [05:14] K`zan: very welcome, enjoy attaching files again [05:14] hey... I have an issue now, I just installed 13.04 server since 13.10 doesn't install with a USB keyboard. I ran apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y , and now my keyboard input is really messed up. what i see on screen isn't what I typed. I have to hold down a key to get a character to appear once on screen, but then the server sees it as some weird mashup of a few letters I typed. Working on console right now (no SSH yet) [05:15] !eol | josh____ [05:15] josh____: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [05:15] glitsj16: Wilco Sir, will certainly simplify a number of things! [05:15] Riight. Well shit. I'm stuck now. [05:15] josh____, Please be careful with language here. ;) [05:15] can't install a later version with USB KB because someone left out a driver. great. [05:16] vfw, if i do ping to www.google.com from terminal it resolves [05:16] sorry, I'm just upset that I reformatted and now can't do anything. [05:16] josh____, It happens, no biggie. [05:16] josh____: can you boot the desktop iso and i can talk you thru a debootstrap install [05:16] josh____: follow the eolupgrade link the bot gave you [05:17] K`zan: i had to do the opposite thing years ago in firefox (still using that profile heh) .. so i think it is actually the native setup that confuses things i believe, but i'm not familiar with kfile [05:17] sure... I'll download the ISO real quick on my other computer (mac doesn't have optical drive now...) [05:19] Beldar: to clarify, you want me to download the 13.10 desktop image? [05:19] josh____: that was me, but yes the desktop 13.10 [05:19] miguelangello: Try editing /etc/resolv.conf and add nameserver 8.8.8.8 [05:19] okay. [05:20] I just looked at the first name I saw that tagged me. [05:20] miguelangello: just check that /etc/resolv.conf doesn't have that warning at the top: DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN [05:21] vfw, how could i do it? [05:24] gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf and add the line to the end of the file, (on a line by itslef nameserver 8.8.8.8) [05:24] Hello. : ) Anyone is having troubles in apache php? [05:24] golfinho_333: what's the real issue? [05:26] somsip well... i install but... the phpinfo and other php commands are only working in /var/www when i use localhost/~username it dont execute the phpinfo and other php commands [05:26] golfinho_333: you understand that doesn't work out as standard. You have to setup other things. Have you dont that? [05:26] josh____, I suggested nothing, I have not followed your issues. [05:26] miguelangello: Let us know if that makes a difference... [05:27] somsip what other things i need to configure i follow the tuturials... the localhost/~username is working for apache but not to php... only in /var/www is working php [05:29] golfinho_333: possible solutions: http://is.gd/qW7zmD http://is.gd/xxSqA5 http://is.gd/ooEK2e [05:29] Beldar: right, I should've tagged someone else but only saw your name on screen ;) [05:30] vfw, it is the same hotmail keeps loading after give email and password [05:30] josh____, Heh, and after I posted I saw that hitsujiTMO cleared that up, I will say they are one of the better helpers all around. [05:30] s0msip thanks gona try... it never happens beford... since i use ubuntu strange [05:30] golfinho_333: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Checking_Apache_2_installation [05:30] hitsujiTMO: haven't done this (or had to, rather) before. what exactly does debootstrapping the install do? [05:31] miguelangello: run firefox from terminal and watch for errors. [05:31] josh____: consider it a manual install. no "installer" to guide you thru it [05:31] Beldar: ty :P [05:32] Hi, My laptop just suddenly shutdown and now I can not login. Does anybody know what should I do? [05:32] Please help [05:33] mojtaba: What were you doing when it shut down? [05:33] mojtaba, Over heating? [05:33] hitsujiTMO: oh lovely... Popping the disk in right now, and as a note, it seems like the power button press is not causing a halt like it did before my format. [05:33] vfw: Beldar: Yes [05:33] vfw thanks : ) [05:34] mojtaba, Okay, have you tried to remedy this so far? [05:34] Beldar: What should I do? My HDD goes bad because of this and I am going to change it, but I am not sure, if the new disk be safe. :( [05:35] mojtaba: Where were you using the laptop before it shutdown? [05:35] jeffrey_f: What do you mean? The fan was not blocked. [05:36] mojtaba: I ask, using on bedding et al? [05:36] jeffrey_f: No, on the table. [05:36] mojtaba, I bought a gaming cooling pad for my laptop in-spite of it not really getting to hot, and made sure the lm-sensors where accurate, and blew out the fans. If you do not find a fix your asking for continued trouble really. [05:36] hitsujiTMO: got the disk in and booted [05:37] josh____: ok. first question. uefi or mbr install? [05:37] Beldar: I have an extra fan, but it is not enough some times. [05:37] MBR [05:37] Do you know what should I do now? [05:37] I can login to tty1, but not in GUI [05:38] hitsujiTMO: it's an old desktop repurposed :). MBR. [05:38] josh____: ok. pop open the terminal and: sudo apt-get install debootstrap pastebinit [05:38] mojtaba: are you in a cold climate? bring it outside to cool down. should only take a few minutes. It should turn back on once cooled. Check to see if the fan is running [05:38] mojtaba, A fan may not, I noticed the gaming pad cooler was more robust is all, my computer runs 10 degrees Fahrenheit at the least cooler. [05:39] a=any* [05:39] jeffrey_f: The fan is running. I waited for it to cool down. [05:39] What should I do now to be able to log in back again? [05:39] hitsujiTMO: errrr... just realized I don't have a mouse connected..... [05:39] I am using another computer to find the answer to this problem. [05:39] mojtaba: got canned air? blow out the vents [05:40] josh____: ctrl + alt + t to open the terminal :P [05:40] mojtaba I just had the same problem in my laptop, a Dell. Temp indicators said it was running very hot. I cleaned the input screen, but no difference. Finally, I had to take it apart and totally remove the heatsink for the cpu. It' was plugged solid with dust. [05:40] jeffrey_f: I will fix the heat issue, the problem is now I can NOT login. [05:40] mojtaba: what error are you getting (if any) [05:40] artie_:I have Dell too [05:40] mojtaba, Hard shutdowns can brick your OS, just a heads up. [05:40] mojtaba after the clean out, it ran 40 degrees cooler!!!! [05:41] !password | mojtaba [05:41] mojtaba: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords [05:41] jeffrey_f:after entering the password, it just shows the welcome screen with no error and asking again for password! [05:41] olah [05:41] hitsujiTMO: not if you're trapped in the Welcome window [05:41] hola [05:41] artie_: The disassembly is a real headache. [05:41] wtev [05:42] sup [05:42] mojtaba: As hitsujiTMO suggests, try Ctrl-Alt-F6 and try logging in from a console screen. [05:42] josh____: ahh [05:42] mojtaba: does it go right back to login screen? [05:42] vfw: I can login via tty1, but I can not login via GUI [05:42] i have a question...has anybody had any success in getting League of Legends to work in ubuntu? [05:42] josh____: tab to the relevent buttons [05:42] vfw: thanks... on console now [05:42] xdreaper15, The channel does not support polling. [05:42] josh____: sudo apt-get install debootstrap pastebinit [05:43] vfw: What should I do after login to tty6? [05:43] mojtaba Yes, it is not easy to take it apart....my laptop was an older model and is considerably easier to get to the inside of it.....my daughters new Dell laptop is almost impossible to take apart!!! NOT GOOD. [05:43] hitsujiTMO: What should I do after login to tty6? I can not login to GUI [05:43] mojtaba: If you have trouble loging in, it will be a problem with credentials [05:43] vfw nathing that dont work... [05:43] xdreaper15, http://askubuntu.com/search?q=League+of+Legends [05:44] mojtaba: err, no idea. i'm helping someone else atm [05:44] mojtaba: rm /home/YourUserID/.ICEauthority then try to log back in [05:44] vfw: what should I do then? [05:44] ahh beldar you rock [05:44] thanks a ton [05:44] jeffrey_f:I will try that. [05:44] xdreaper15, No problem, now you have another resource. ;) [05:44] hitsujiTMO: dpkg returned 1, /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process [05:45] sorry to be a nuisance >.< [05:45] josh____: give it a second and try again [05:45] no biggie [05:45] jeffrey_f:Can I rename that? [05:45] hitsujiTMO: same output [05:46] mojtaba: you can if you want. [05:46] mojtaba I sincerely hope you don't have a newer Dell.....and that you don't have to take it apart.....but, if you do have to do it, be sure to get some decent quality heatsink compound for it. Arctic Silver is pretty hard to beat::> [05:46] golfinho_333: What error are you getting? [05:47] jeffrey_f:It says, can not do that, read only file system [05:47] mojtaba: sudo [05:47] mojtaba: sudo? [05:47] vfw no error... php5 is enabled everything is working... the problem is that the phpinfo is only working in /var/www and not in /localhost/~username [05:47] josh____: ok. try once more again [05:47] vfw: jeffrey_f: even with sudo -s [05:48] golfinho_333: http://ubuntuserverguide.com/2012/06/monitoring-system-resources-on-ubuntu-server-with-phpsysinfo.html [05:48] hello good people [05:48] hitsujiTMO: same again... [05:48] josh____: sudo lsof /var/cache/debconf/config.dat [05:48] mojtaba: delete it. It gets created if it isn't there. Happened to me a few times and deleting it had no ill-effects [05:48] vfw thanks :) [05:49] jeffrey_f:ok, let me do that [05:49] jeffrey_f:it does not allow me to remove it. same error message! [05:50] hitsujiTMO: debconf-c root 4uW REG 0,16 137869 10146 /var/cache/debconf/config.dat [05:50] I have a problem with usb 3 flash drives.....I bought 3 different models locally, but none of them accept an ext3 or ext4 format......do all usb 3 flash drives limit the formatting that can be done externally???? All of them had fat32 formatting when I bought them. [05:50] jeffrey_f:even I can not change its permission to 777 [05:50] jeffrey_f: I am root at the moment [05:50] That is very odd!! [05:50] mojtaba: df [05:51] hitsujiTMO: also noted that it may be incomplete due to it being a temp fs [05:51] mojtaba: sudo enter-chroot rm /home/MYUSERNAME/.ICEauthority [05:51] what is chroot? [05:51] jeffrey_f: I type whoami, and it says, root [05:51] then rm ./.ICEauthority [05:51] josh____: can you try jump back to tty7 and see if you can tab to "try ubuntu" [05:52] jeffrey_f: It says, read only [05:52] josh____: i'm wondering if its that menu is locking the file [05:52] vfw: what is df? [05:52] mojtaba: What is the user name? [05:52] root [05:52] mojtaba: no it's not. What is your user name? [05:52] hitsujiTMO: didn't know about the changing tty shortcut. back to desktop now [05:52] whoami > root [05:52] mojtaba [05:52] mojtaba: ls /home [05:53] josh____: ok. try open a terminal there with: ctrl + alt + t [05:53] mojtaba: What directories are in /home/ ? [05:53] hitsujiTMO: done [05:53] vfw: shoot, my bad. [05:53] let me check that [05:53] mojtaba: What user is having trouble logging in? [05:53] josh____: sudo apt-get install pastebinit debootstrap [05:53] mojtaba: (If you do not know your user name, that is the problem.) [05:54] mojtaba: exit from root [05:54] hitsujiTMO: no wall of errors, looks good [05:54] jeffrey_f: just a moment. [05:54] josh____: sudo fdisk -l 2>&1 | pastebinit [05:54] mojtaba: ls /home/ #Tell us what it says. [05:55] mojtaba: ls /home/ | pastebinit #Send URL [05:55] I just cd /home/mojtaba [05:55] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6842125/ [05:55] jeffrey_f: vfw: after cd /home/mojtaba && rm .ICEauthority, same error message [05:55] mojtaba: Type exit, hit enter. Login as mojtaba [05:55] josh____: so sda1 was / and sda5 is /home ? [05:56] vfw: I did that [05:56] vfw: what next? [05:56] hitsujiTMO: should be, no other OSes on the drive. [05:56] So you are able to login ok as mojtaba ? [05:56] vfw: ye [05:56] s [05:56] josh____: ahh waid you had /dev/sda1 as /boot ? [05:57] josh____: what layout do you want or does it matter? [05:57] hitsujiTMO: it's the ubuntu encrypted LVM default [05:57] josh____: are you sure you want encrypted for a server? [05:57] mojtaba: ls -l .ICEauthority #Tell us what it says. [05:57] hitsujiTMO: ehhh, true... I'll save that for my other box. [05:58] mojtaba: ls -l ~/.ICEauthority #Tell us what it says. [05:58] vfw: -rw------- 1 mojtaba mojtaba [05:58] josh____: laptops generally what you need encrypted for. bit odd for a stationary device. it's not like the NSA are going to break into your home and take your hdd right? [05:58] :P [05:59] hitsujiTMO: you never know... ;). anyways... [05:59] mojtaba: rm ~/.ICEauthority [05:59] vfw it looks this dont work... [05:59] josh____: ok. we'll simply this a bit so: sudo fdisk /dev/sda [06:00] hitsujiTMO: command [06:00] vfw: golfinho_333: I can not remove it. it says: read-only file system [06:00] josh____: use that to delete the partitions. d = delete. create a new partition spanning the full drive if you don't want a seperate /home [06:01] mojtaba: try rebooting [06:01] jeffrey_f: ok [06:01] mojtaba what you can not remove? [06:01] mojtaba: not sure why it mounted as readonly [06:01] should I boot in safe mode? [06:01] ls -ld /home/mjtaba [06:01] josh____: actually. sorry wait. [06:02] vfw: jeffrey_f: should I boot in recovery mode? [06:02] mojtaba: ls -ld /home/mjtaba #Tell us what that says [06:02] josh____: once you delete the partitions. first create your swap. how big do you want the swap? [06:02] hitsujiTMO: partitions deleted... 1G maybe? === xmetal is now known as xmetal_afk [06:02] vfw: I just reboot. please wait [06:02] josh____: how much ram do you have? [06:02] mojtaba: (Show us) [06:03] vfw: jeffrey_f: should I boot in recovery mode? [06:03] hitsujiTMO: 1GB. For apache/mysql/php and potentially other services like mail, nfs later [06:03] mojtaba: answer vfw first [06:03] jeffrey_f:I can not, because now the laptop is restarted. You told me to do that. [06:04] hitsujiTMO: I have a 250GB hard drive in it, so not too constrained. [06:04] josh____: yup 1gb swap should be enough [06:04] mojtaba: Login and do it. [06:04] josh____: create a partition with n [06:04] vfw [06:04] hitsujiTMO: n done [06:04] vfw: ok [06:04] josh____: starting 2048 [06:04] Hi again . I have a litle problem again as expected.. Thunderbird does'nt get windowframes. If i open a window to write a letter .. It gets frames.. But not the main window. it is the only program that has this problem. How could i get hold of what's faulty? Im on lubuntu 12.04 and have compiz metacity and a gtk2 theme.. [06:04] josh____: ending/size: +2097152 [06:04] josh____: type 82 [06:05] hitsujiTMO: waaait... just a sec. I'm back at the p/e output? is it primary? [06:05] jirido, Was the desktop fully usable till you tweaked it? [06:05] josh____: p sorry [06:05] vfw: jeffrey_f: my laptop has been shutdown several times and this causes the HDD to get some bad sectors; I think that is the problem now. (I am going to change the HDD next week.) === marco is now known as Guest74603 [06:05] josh____: sorry forgot anout p/e. used to gpt these days [06:06] josh____: would you like a seperate /home or are you happy with a single partition? [06:06] well lets say i have not tweeked it but.. it got this way when i started to use thunderbird :) [06:06] jirido, compiz and metacity are separate window managers by the way, not to be mixed. [06:06] mojtaba: If that were the case, your system would be running filesystem check now. [06:07] hitsujiTMO: I don't think I really need another partition for it? any particular benefit? [06:07] vfw: jeffrey_f: Yes, and I just ignored it, because the disk is encrypted. (although I have let it to check for errors before, but nothing has changed.) [06:07] jirido, What desktop are you using? [06:07] josh____: only on reinstalling. but that isn't really such a major thing on servers [06:08] mojtaba: full disk or just home folder encryption? [06:08] Beldar: I think i have compiz for some efects but that it passes the frame thing to metacity.. Does that sound sensible? [06:08] josh____: if you just want a single root. n p 83 [06:08] jeffrey_f: full [06:08] pcmanfm [06:08] jirido, No, and what desktop is this, be sure to always use nicks here. [06:08] or lxde [06:08] hitsujiTMO: so I typed 2048 [Enter] +2097152 [06:08] josh____: yup [06:09] hitsujiTMO: where does the 82 come in? [06:09] Beldar: ok [06:09] jirido, This is lxde, and you have mixed compiz and metacity? Di you know what the desktop manager is for lxde? [06:09] josh____: it should ask after. if not we'll just specify that in a sec [06:09] mojtaba: when you started the system, you provided the unlock to boot....it can check the disk at that point. [06:09] hitsujiTMO: nope, back to command prompt [06:10] vfw: jeffrey_f: I am not sure, if I could isolate the bad sector with badblock command and fsck or not?! [06:10] josh____: ok. lets create /. n p [06:10] mojtaba: Don't ignore it. [06:10] mojtaba: Let it try and repair your filesystem. [06:10] jeffrey_f: Yes, I have let it to check for that, and it said there are some problems at /home and /, but it could not fix them. [06:10] hitsujiTMO: alright [06:10] vfw: I let it, but it could not. [06:11] mojtaba: Well, you won't know until you try. Right? === hdevalence is now known as hdevalence|away [06:11] josh____: t [06:11] vfw: I tried. [06:11] mojtaba: fsck -y /dev/what-ever [06:11] before [06:11] Beldar: you make me confused here.. This thing with window frames themes and window managers are like djungle already.. is ther some comand i can run that shows what setup i have? [06:11] mojtaba: sudo fsck -Af -M [06:11] hitsujiTMO: done [06:11] vfw: jeffrey_f: ls -ld /home/mojtaba > drwx------ 122 mojtaba mojtaba [06:12] josh____: that should ask, whick partition. choose 1 [06:12] jeffrey_f: vfw: As the disk is encrypted, is it safe to run fsck on it? [06:12] so i have this VPS with 12.10 and i tried to apt-get update [06:12] and i got this [06:12] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6842165/ [06:12] josh____: then give it: 82 as type [06:12] hitsujiTMO: ok [06:12] mojtaba: you should be ok. You unlocked it at boot and it is readable [06:12] josh____: now: w to write it to disk [06:13] hitsujiTMO: . [06:13] josh____: then: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit [06:13] jeffrey_f: It do not ask any password at boot. I have not encrypted the whole system while installing ubuntu. Later I encrypt the whole system. (but I do not remember what were the commands.) [06:13] jirido, I suspect the root of the problem is the tweaking with compiz and metacity, and theming, just a guess but probably accurate. Lxde is meant to be pretty basic I would be careful, when you add stuff extra like this you are heading for a no support area technically.

On my toshiba laptop windows runs hotter, I would investigates that computer model and heat with ubuntu and make sure it is clean and get a cooling pad that will cool it. [06:32] mojtaba, Make sure the sensors are running accurate as well.

[07:25] could be... 1st disk is a SSD and to contain number of writes I would like to put fonders like /var on the magnetic HD [07:25] hitsujiTMO: oh wow. no stats motd [07:25] jirido: in the mean time i'm looking at the reported launchpad bugs for thunderbird [07:25] josh____: yup. as i said, minimal install [07:25] josh____: few things to clean up first [07:26] moving with mv is usual also among mounted disks [07:26] hitsujiTMO: what's the proper way to set console screen size? i've seen old forum posts, but i imagine some of those are old [07:26] Teo_77, /var is in root right, what is the purpose? [07:26] but I'm unsure how to tell to kernel where are folder it needs [07:26] let's do an example [07:26] josh____: it should do it dynamically for you. is it not? [07:27] jirido: doing that i realised i never asked if you already tried a temp rename of your thunderbird profile so it gets a fresh one on a restart .. longshots at best [07:27] josh____: it shouldn't matter anyway as you should be ssh'ing in :P [07:27] Teo_77, Is the SSD to full, and this is your answer to that? [07:27] I've read that to contain the number of writes (and increase the life of the SSD) it is advisable to have some folders on a traditional disk [07:27] hitsujiTMO: it's just in a corner of the display. but it's not a big deal like you say. [07:27] to reduce the number of writes [07:28] of course y ssd cannot store all my system and I need to move something also on the other HD. [07:28] hitsujiTMO: lol only 46MB of RAM utilized [07:28] josh____: ok. need to run: echo "ohci_pci" | sudo tee -a /etc/initramfs-tools/modules && update-initramfs -u [07:29] glitsj16: ok so i try that first.. [07:29] Beldar, I'm not sure I explained my question. Is my goal clear? [07:29] josh____: this fixes that bug you were on about that prevented you from installing. You need this incase you ever want to use the recovery console or get dropped to busybox === GTB3NW_AWAY is now known as GTB3NW [07:30] Teo_77, SSD's now a days have as long a life as spinning HD's, have you set up a optimizing schema? [07:31] set up a optimizing schema? Don't understand. So there is no need to take particular care. The only problem could be the available space. [07:31] hitsujiTMO: it failed. ln failed to create hard link - op not permitted, cp cant create regular file - permission denied [07:31] Beldar, do you mean TRIM? [07:32] josh____: now, if you want, you can install ubuntu-standard .... this will gove you a nice base to work from. it installs tools like, memtest86+, man, ntfs-3g, openssh-client, bash-completion, command-not-found and a few others [07:32] Teo_77, For al general purposes yes, SSD's in the beginning had shorter now they are more robust. Yes trim. [07:32] josh____: pastebinit /etc/initramfs-tools/modules [07:33] Beldar, TRIM is OK. Asking now just your opinion. What should I put on a spinning HD? My 120Gb SSD is not enough for everything. I understand it is a silly question. Just your opinion... [07:33] glitsj16: i changed name of the profile in profiles.ini.. nd got :Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible.. when it started.. or rather did'nt start :/ [07:34] Beldar, if I put all my /home I loose the speed of SSD for the handling of my files (docs, videos for editing, pics reading) [07:34] Teo_77 All the extra media stuff to start with, what is on the SSD as of now, I have 256 gig SSD and 4 OS. [07:36] Beldar, I'm going to have 128Gb SSD. Ordered. Now in travel. 1 SO (xubuntu) not a complex system. LVM. a /home with some Gigs of videos and music and pics that will not fit in the SSD [07:36] josh____: sorry, forgot sudo: sudo update-initramfs -u [07:37] hitsujiTMO: was wondering if that was the issue [07:37] Teo_77, I can't say exactly should be on the SSD or the spinning HD, but I would avoid breaking apart the OS anymore that putting home or root there is all myself. [07:37] jirido: every time i'm tempted to give you a command to purge thunderbird .. i did find a forum thread though --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2184227 .. so your not the only one seeing this behavior [07:37] josh____: once everything is done: sudo apt-get clean [07:37] than* [07:37] josh____: then congrats on getting your server installed [07:38] hitsujiTMO: alright. thanks so much. glad that it eventually got working. I learned a lot from this. Is there a wiki page for this process or is it a mostly undocumented thing? [07:38] Beldar, thank you for your time and your answers. I'll take everything on my SSD. I'll just create a folder on the spininng HD to contain the media files that I do not need to edit anymore [07:39] Teo_77, No problem, that sounds like a prudent action, I was thinking along the same lines. [07:39] josh____: public documentation for this kind of thing is allover the place. I have my own documentation that I was working from [07:40] Beldar, ;) Bye. Have a nice day/evening/night [07:40] hitsujiTMO: is there any way I could get said documentation so that i can play around with other boxes and stuff? [07:40] you to [07:41] josh____: thats it, but its based on uefi and not mbr install. https://wiki.tenmilesout.net/wiki/Ubuntu_Saucy_Debootstrap_Efi_Minimal_Install [07:41] how to make ubuntu boot cd using live cd ? [07:41] josh____: most of my docs are on a home server [07:42] glitsj16: Yess sweetheart! It was something wrong with the profile! So smart of you to think of it! I had no idea that a profile could rech out and kick the window frames of a program like that.. [07:43] hitsujiTMO: thanks for your tine. that page is getting bookmarked for sure [07:43] jirido: \o/ :p [07:43] !details | root32 === GTB3NW is now known as GTB3NW_AWAY [07:43] root32: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [07:43] josh____: no problem [07:46] ubottu: i have new ubuntu .iso image , i try to boot it with vatual box , but not boot it.. :( [07:46] root32: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [07:46] jirido: odd indeed, especially that it would only affect the main window .. oh well, enjoy the compiz/lxde combo i'd say [07:47] ubottu: it's ok.. :) [07:47] root32: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [07:48] morning! [07:48] MAD_51: Morning :D === MAD_51 is now known as _linuxAS_ [07:49] root32, your description lack any real details, you might try #vbox as well, we can help with better details in general. [07:50] hitsujiTMO: Follow-up question: when I run "sudo shutdown now", it doesn't shutdown, but just enters single-user mode -- is that a setting of some sort? [07:51] How can I find what packages depend on a specific version of a library? In particular, libqtcore4 version 4.8.2 ? [07:52] Beldar: no need to use with vertual box, i want to make boot .iso ubuntu image.. how to do it? [07:52] I know that I can do apt-cache rdepends ... but that doesn't specify the specific version in use. [07:53] root32, For an install on the HD? Burn it to a disk, or load it to a usb with an app. [07:54] 0,16 大家好 [07:54] glitsj16: Thank you very much love, It has been e real anoyance..! are you in for an other litle problem after a litle coffe brake or shall we rest for another day..? [07:54] Beldar: ok , what is the app for boot usb ? [07:55] root32, What OS do you have to do this with, there are handfulls of usb loaders, some run in specific OS's and have versions for others. [07:55] jirido: if i can help, i just poored a big cup .. and the channel reads along so ask away [07:55] joshhunt_: sudo poweroff [07:56] ok. This gona be messy [07:56] heh [07:56] Beldar: Ubuntu new version ? [07:57] root32, what operating system are you using so that you can load the usb? [07:58] root32, If we are having a language problem, there is ubuntu support for specific languages if needed. [07:59] ask! [08:00] root32: ##ubuntu-lk [08:00] root32: sorry #ubuntu-lk [08:03] apb1963: just a question .. are you sure about the version #? can't find any mention of a version 4:4.8.2 on packages.ubuntu.com [08:04] glitsj16: it comes from the backports ppa... which is why I need to get rid of it. I'm told it's not supported. [08:05] apb1963: are you on precise 12.04? === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [08:05] glitsj16: yes [08:07] apb1963: you could try to downgrade the version to the one from the regular repos, but before trying .. do you want to disable backports all together ? [08:08] glitsj16: so before I get rid of it, I want to see what packages depend on it.... I don't want to be left with an unusable system === Koma-AFK is now known as Koma [08:11] apb1963: hmm, i understand .. especially with a core lib like that it could be hairy [08:11] glitsj16: No, I don't think I do... though to be honest I'm not 100% sure. I'm just stumbling along trying to setup various packages that look useful for a real business. [08:11] glitsj16: And keep running into major hiccups. [08:11] glitsj16: You see I have a 2 terabyte disk. I sharede it in two. one i had to format to hfs+ to get on it some film i got to edit on a school in helsini. They only had mac and.. yes so i formated it so.. but as i omly used about 2-300 gig its mostly empty.. The other part. is full soo full.. good alternative Films and dockumentarys and so on. so i ofcorse wanted to use some of that lovly empty space.. but as linux cant write at hfs+ th [08:12] apb1963: apt-cache show libqtcore4 | grep 'Depends\|Recommends' === sailor|shower is now known as SailrR [08:13] glitsj16: so now i cant mount it even to read it. [08:14] hitsujiTMO: Thank you but that doesn't tell me what depends on libqtcore4... it tells me what libqtcore4 depends on... the exact reverse [08:15] apb1963: ahh sorry. apt-cache rdepends libqtcore4 but thats a list of everying in the repo. not necessarily whats installed [08:16] It complains of differensies in the backup of superblock or something.. when i mount in spacefm it says mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb3, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so [08:17] apb1963: ahh sorry. apt-cache rdepends libqtcore4 but thats a list of everying in the repo. not necessarily whats installed [08:17] hitsujiTMO: I didn't realize it was everything in the repo... but it also fails to provide specific versions. [08:18] hitsujiTMO: now at least I understand why the list is so long :) [08:22] apb1963: whats the output of: apt-cache show libqtcore4 | grep Version [08:22] jirido: did you ran a fsck on it yet? and this isn't exactly one of my strong suits .. maybe try to put a paste together with the logs so people here can have a closer look on the issue [08:23] hitsujiTMO: apt-cache --installed rdepends libqtcore4 limits to installed packages [08:24] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6842589/ [08:25] apb1963: sweet, will note that for future. for specific version try: apt-cache --installed rdepends libqtcore4=4:4.8.2+dfsg-2ubuntu1~precise1~ppa6 [08:25] apb1963: or: apt-cache --installed rdepends libqtcore4>=4:4.8.2+dfsg-2ubuntu1~precise1~ppa6 [08:26] glitsj16: I actually could mount it again.. I just looked and tryed a little and when i took away the default option in fstab.. it MOUNTED! :) But So comes next Q Is it safe to change owner of the files from whitin linux right like that and will it work with a mac then? [08:27] hitsujiTMO: the latter gives no output.... the former outputs the same thing as not specifying the version [08:29] is it bad to do-release-upgrade and not reboot afterwards? [08:30] Shikieiki_, You have to reboot to finalize the upgrade. [08:30] because my ubuntu just reached it's end of life apparently, but i have 100+ days of uptime and i'm going for a new personal record. [08:30] Shikieiki_: it is not *that* bad. [08:30] Beldar: but it wont' cause any severe instability or anything? [08:30] jirido: by taking out the 'defaults' you don't exactly change ownership of the files on there, so now yoy don't have anything at all in fstab after blowing away defaults? [08:30] hi. I've got an old laptop. It doesn't handle unity graphics so well. I remember years ago an option to use Unity2D, or choose whatever GUI at login menu. But in 13.04 now I don't see that option? [08:31] because i'm hesitant to force an upgrade through two versions without rebooting if it will break everything [08:31] makara: lubuntu would be the best bet for such a system. unity2d is gone a while now [08:32] makara: also. 13.04 is end of life [08:32] Shikieiki_, I would forget the uptime it means nothing, do it correctly. [08:33] hitsujiTMO, how can I see ubuntu release from cli? [08:33] glitsj16: No.. It still has :hfsplus noatime,noauto,user,users [08:33] Beldar: but, is it known to cause any problems to not reboot? [08:33] makara: cat /etc/issue or lsb_release -c [08:33] or will all i miss out on be the newer kernel, until i reboot? [08:33] Shikieiki_, Not an Issue I have seen addressed as it is not a good idea to be honest. [08:34] hitsujiTMO, ok. I've just done a release-upgrade. It's 13.10 [08:34] hm, how long then can an ubuntu that's been upgraded twice stay online before experiencing issues then? hours? days? [08:34] jirido: defaults as mount options implies rw, so that was the issue probably, you should be safe .. only test is reality as you know .. boot into OS X and native tools to do another file system check [08:35] Shikieiki_, This is an unknown to be honest, to many variables. [08:35] hm [08:35] well, i guess i'll be the first, i'm curious now === Devil is now known as Guest15747 [08:36] hi [08:36] I'm having trouble with duplicate sources.list entries, any takers? [08:36] But i understand that user and owner should be 1000 on the disk preferably set from within mac as owner 99 cant be reached really as it some kind of virtual owner?? but what i wonder is if there is some way to change the owner in a safe and actuall way on that disk with owner and group 99? [08:37] This occurred after a release upgrade from Precise to Quantal === jagger|away is now known as jagger [08:37] glitsj16: I mean owner and group [08:37] Guest15747: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | pastebinit [08:37] Shikieiki_, Honestly risking the OS for some uptime cred that means nothing is rather illogical. [08:38] jirido: if you didn't chown'd anything taking out the 'default' mount option shouldn't do no harm .. or did you change ownerships? [08:39] Beldar: worst that happens is i have to reinstall. i'm moving onto gentoo anyway, and haven't reinstalled yet simply because i'm going for 1 year of uptime (so it's not a hugely important computer) [08:40] jirido: add .. uid=1000,gid=1000 in that case [08:41] jirido: missed a part, so used to the highlighting on the nick that i overlooked sorry [08:41] Shikieiki_, You can setup ubuntu to not need reboots with kernel upgrades, IE with a LTS you could possibly have a 5 year up time. [08:42] i know, i plan on sticking with LTS from now on [08:42] glitsj16: sorry [08:42] for kernel updates at least, i never reboot (unless the update fixes a security flaw) [08:45] glitsj16: The thing is that if i gona use the uid and gid bits the ownership on the disk must be sett to that. but ownership 99 on mac is "everybody" and works like a cameliont and change after whats youre uid.. But does it do that on linux also? and if i chown it to 1000.1000 will that be permanent? [08:46] And do i really need to? [08:47] where can i download stuff [08:48] jirido: best ask some confirmation on that here, not sure on that and we wouldn't wanna blow away your film collection .. that being said i think the uid/gid bits are for the duration of the mount cycle [08:48] jaclass08: You can download Ubuntu from www.ubuntu.com [08:49] jaclass08: or Software Center [08:49] thnx [08:50] yes maybe i can set them to 99 ? === amritanshu_RnD is now known as Guest31820 === barry_ is now known as barry [08:51] How can i se the actual owner and user of the partitition ? i know some folder on it is owned by root [08:51] Hello [08:52] now, im 100% new to ubuntu and linux at all so ive just come for some help [08:52] !manual | Teozac a good start [08:52] Teozac a good start: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents.

I've locked myself out of a VM by setting SSH to refuse passwords, before I added my key. I've added the vdh to another instance of Ubuntu. How can I see it, and mount it, so I can add the key? [08:53] Im trying to download an irc client and trying to grasp how to install something from the terminal [08:54] Teozac, You want to stick with the ubuntu repos in general, it is rare you would need otherwise. [08:55] glitsj16: sorry again.. i think its time for me to go to bed . :) You have been so sweet and patient with me .. Thank you and hope you all good and nice helpsearchers this morning. I se you around. Thanks [08:55] makara, You would have to chroot in I would think. [08:56] if you could but no password makes this difficult [08:56] How can I get nvidia optimus to work on 13.10? LSPCI gives the following: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06) 01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK208M [GeForce GT 740M] (rev a1) [08:56] !optimus | optiwork have you seen [08:56] optiwork have you seen: The Bumblebee Project aims to support NVIDIA Optimus technology under Linux. The Bumblebee website can be found at http://bumblebee-project.org/ [08:57] jirido: keep well and have a nice stretch :) [08:57] Beldar, Yes but then I have to run everything from the command line. Everything from Chrome and VMware to Wine and FreeCAD [08:58] And Mathematica has issues with it. (Plots don't render unless your manipulating them) [08:59] optiwork, Mainly for help here specific details are needed, not an area i"m real familiar with is all. === travis is now known as Guest22200 [09:00] optiwork, Well, My specific details on the hardware is above. All I'm looking to do is get 3D to work when I need it, and not when I don't. Just like it does on Windows - The card is off until something needs it. [09:00] Teozac: well what are you trying to install, 99% of the time you'll want to use 'sudo apt-get install nameofpackage'. sudo - superuser do, perform command as admin (so you have absolute rights); apt-get is the package manager ubuntu uses; install is a argument given to apt-get; nameofpackage - self explanatory [09:01] Beldar, Whoops, I used my name instead of yours. The above was addressed to you. [09:02] optiwork, This is linux, just like windows means nothing here. You have to be aware of the limitations of the drivers provided by vendors and the communities ability to work around this. [09:03] Beldar, Don't nvidia provide drivers for Linux? I've used them on a previous machine. I just can't find any source saying that they fix the optimus problem - and a few say it breaks it. [09:04] optiwork, proprietary drivers are not suggested in general, are starting to get a glimpse of the difficulties that need these details? === Zerant^away is now known as Zerant [09:04] you* [09:05] Beldar, Well, what details do you need? [09:05] optiwork, I can't help here, but piece by piece the exact problem would be the channel norm, not general statements. [09:07] Is there something like Arch Users Repository for ubuntu ? [09:07] i think i managed to add the repo and install the program, but how do i find it? [09:07] interweb, There are ubuntu repos. [09:07] The exact problem is that since the nVidia card is not listed as a VGA device (Which is the norm for Optimus) - Ubuntu has no idea what it is. Infact, lspci -v says just that about it (unknown). Therefore, nVidia drivers lead to a black screen after reboot, which means that I can't use my dedicated graphics card for 3D support in Linux. I'd like to resolve this [09:07] Teozac, what repo what program? [09:08] https://launchpad.net/~nesthib/+archive/weechat-stable [09:08] Teozac, syn [09:08] !ppa | interweb [09:08] interweb: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

[09:09] didnt know that [09:09] however, thanks for the help [09:09] ive never used ubuntu or any kind of linux before [09:09] maybe thats obvious >( [09:09] :) [09:10] Teozac, No biggie, you will get the hang of it. [09:10] bye === fl_0|afk is now known as fl_0 [09:11] hitsujiTMO: so #kubuntu found an answer for me... http://i.imgur.com/aI0i5PY.png [09:11] Actually, I guess I should say that the exact problem is that the nVidia graphics card isn't being used, and that the packages in the Ubuntu repo give me a black screen on reboot. [09:12] hitsujiTMO: sadly, it looks like it found every package in the system :( [09:13] apb1963: but that might be requiring >= a lower version or not specifying a specific version. a ppa-purge should bring it back to a stable state [09:13] apb1963: if you can. image the drive. then there's no harm in testing [09:14] hitsujiTMO: I'm not 100% positive, but it seems to be able to specify a specific version [09:15] How do I figure out where ZNC is stored when apt-get installs it. [09:15] hitsujiTMO: I'm nervous about imaging.... seems like a lot of potential for failure [09:15] I'd like to attempt to modify the web panel to some extent.

Too easy to mess up. [09:17] practice* [09:17] hitsujiTMO: that's an interesting idea.... one that makes my head spin at the moment... not sure how I'd practice it [09:18] hitsujiTMO: I get the VM part... I don't get the cloning part [09:18] hitsujiTMO: I'd need a second disk right? [09:18] apb1963: install ubuntu to a vm. image it. restore the image to another vm. easiest way of practicing [09:18] interesting [09:18] apb1963: yup. you store the image on another drive [09:19] interesting [09:19] ty HiddenDjinn [09:19] sorry HiddenDjinn wrong highlight.

That sounds weird [09:42] witheld: man bash and search for MAIL (all uppercase) [09:43] witheld: And then see what's set currently with: declare -p _ "${!MAIL@}" [09:44] nvidia-setting broke for me yesterday. i think i'm seeing [09:44] witheld: Run the mail command to read that mail. If you are the first admin user of the system, you likely get all the admin mail from cron [09:45] i'd like to go back a version. indicates that there's a 304.51 version out there [09:45] is there a way to find out what version i previously had, grab it, and when i do, should i dpkg -i -f it? [09:47] Bear10: what is it supposed to match? [09:47] geirha, it's supposed to match any € so i can then replace it with a transformed version [09:49] it can be € or any variation, but the important part is i'm trying to get the thing that follows the echo and removing the € so i can transform it to DisplayPrice->display($1); ?> [09:50] Bear10: try starting with a simpler regex: find . \( -name .svn -o -name .git \) -prune -o -type f ! -name "files.txt" -exec grep ' Bear10: It'll probably give some false positives, but keep adding bits to the regex until it matches only the lines you want [09:50] well the grep works fine it's my specfiic syntax especially the ([-a-zA-Z0-9 _ \' \( \) \] \[ \$ \+ \* \/ \. \, \;]*) [09:50] specifically [09:50] Bear10: might be easier to perform such a match in python. grep can be rather awful for complex regexes [09:50] when i substitute taht with .* [09:50] it works [09:51] Bear10: Well yes, grep won't like that regex [09:53] Bear10: You're telling grep to use basic regular epxressions, but you're feeding it something that looks more like extended regular expressions, and with a bunch of backslashes, which may give undefined behavior [09:53] but isnt -E telling it to use extended/ [09:53] Bear10: I don't see any -E [09:54] well i changed the -G to -E [09:54] still [09:55] Bear10: well [\[] will match a \ or a [, so all your backslashes between [...] are pointless [09:57] Bear10: it also means that \] will escape the ] from closing the [...] [09:57] *will not [09:57] not sure i follow, all my [ and ] are backslashed within the [...] [09:57] i want those === verbaltea is now known as dreamTraveller [09:58] Hi [09:58] Hello, what mount options should I used in /etc/fstab for ntfs partitions to ensure that no other users can read/write/execute (besides me and root), and is there a way to make executing files possible on an ntfs partition without making all files executable? [09:58] I've tried to create a symbolic link [09:58] ln −s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/mouse [09:59] Bear10: [abc\]xyz] will match an a, b, c or \ followed by the sequence "xyz]" [09:59] ln: "/dev/mouse" target is not a directory [09:59] NictraSavios: uid=your-uid,gid=your-gid,umask=0777 [09:59] How can I solve?

[10:01] NictraSavios: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask i'm not sure about ntfs-options, would they support fmask/dmask at all? [10:03] llutz, I've used them blindly in the past. No idea if they worked, I just copy-pasta from the ArchWiki [10:03] llutz, But I had a lot of issues with ntfs, so on this reinstall I figured I'd ask the officall ubuntu people. [10:04] i just tried to post a workaround to the nvidia-settings issue on askubuntu but they don't permit '+'s in the local-part of an RFC 2822 addr-spec. (naughty naughty) [10:06] NictraSavios: from mount man-page, they aren't valid for ntfs, but for ntfs-3g it seems. sorry, i'm not very versed with ntfs at all. best to try and see if it works [10:07] llutz, Which is more current? ntfs or ntfs-3g? [10:07] can i use different torrent clients on each os (ubuntu, windows) and keep progress? [10:08] NictraSavios: i don't know [10:08] NictraSavios: ntfs is kernel, ntfs-3g some additional stuff [10:08] !ntfs-3g | NictraSavios [10:08] NictraSavios: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions [10:09] Got it working with ntfs-3g [10:10] bumbar, Depends on the client, but as long as they both download to the same directory, each will check whats on disk. (This may cause issues, and will mean that torrents spend a few minutes scanning every time you reboot) [10:11] bumbar, Just make sure its the same torrent on both clients - or else you'll really cause problems.

[11:27] thanks [11:28] optirun: that doesn't seem to work [11:28] horsesCanFly: I can't just run the Nvidia (It isn't presented as a VGA device, only a 3D device - I can send lspci if you need to know). So I'd like to run both through nvidia-prime [11:28] eutheria: Huh... they must have changed it.

I can't really open links. [11:36] optirun, probably you have just to create a xorg.conf with those details.

I had an ati before and I have to say. Never gave me any problems. [11:47] horsesCanFly: I've had endless problems with ATI's with an old girlfriend. I spent hours trying to get get laptop working well. [11:49] optirun, I guess I'm one of the lucky guys. But my card become legacy :\. Was an hd4*** [11:51] Well, that made it worse.

The busID is equal to yours [12:03] optirun: i think you need to make sure you only have one nvidia driver installed before any xorg.conf change will be effective, that is if you still have both installed [12:03] glitsj16: 319 installs 331 as a dependency. I tried to only install 319. Should I purge all and try just 331?

But when I took the W8.1 update, my laptop boot automaticly on W8.1. I had 2 boot-repaire but I boot always on W8.1. My seconde Boot-repaire got me http://paste.ubuntu.com/6843352/ Thanks [12:11] optirun: ok, that doesn't show *any* nvidia driver in use currently, we need to expand the same command to 3 instead of 2 at the end (# of lines outputted) .. please do another paste if you don't mind [12:11] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6843444/ [12:11] glitsj16: I used 4, just in case. (-A 4) [12:12] optirun: thanks [12:12] we won't go higher than 666 [12:12] :p [12:14] I did modify the command to include the 3D controler. An important detail of optimus is that the nvidia card isn't presented as a valid VGA device. [12:14] optirun: okay, you should purge all things nvidia and install only the 331 when that is finished, so we can be sure the nvidia dkms modules are only seeing the 331 [12:14] optirun: yes we might need that info later on [12:14] glitsj16: Installing 331 now. [12:15] Done, should I reboot? [12:15] optirun: let's check 2 things before you do perhaps [12:15] glitsj16: Alright [12:16] optirun: please output .. sudo dkms status .. and .. ls -lh /etc/modprobe.d [12:16] optirun: also .. lsmod | grep nvidia [12:17] horsesCanFly: I tried what you said and now I'm back to lowgraphics mode at lightdm [12:17] optirun: did you also install nvidia-prime as well? [12:17] glitsj16: Yup [12:18] optirun, ehhh weird [12:18] optirun: i think what horsesCanFly supplied is very good info, but that will only work once the correct driver is working, a combo deal if you like [12:18] glitsj16: And if the correct driver works, then I probably wont need his info since it will render without [12:19] optirun: likely, especially with nvidia-prime in the mix [12:19] Removing xorg.conf allows lightdm to load, but causes blackscreen upon entering the desktop. [12:19] optirun, or that or it will use the intel by default [12:20] horsesCanFly: It technically should use intel by default. Everything show go through the intel card, only using the gpu when nessacary. Thats how optimus works :P. [12:20] optirun, honestly what is weird is you without a xorg everything should work but with intel [12:20] linux newb question :P. i just bought a new laptop, put ubuntu on it. the wifi driver crashes every few seconds. [12:21] optirun, haha I know. But the support in linux is not evry good yet do I decide to run only the nvidia card :P [12:21] optirun: Maybe my backlight is just dark? They keys to increase it don't work (They did before) - but I could try adding the kernel params that made them work on my other laptops. [12:21] optirun: horsesCanFly: i think nvidia-prime will take care of the i915 [12:22] I found this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/411475/problem-with-the-intel-wireless-7260-driver [12:22] the person suggests to do something with modprobe. I guess that enables a kernel module? [12:22] optirun: the backlight=vendor param? [12:22] now, how do i see that kernel module was properly loaded? [12:23] glitsj16: Yup [12:24] optirun: reboot at will .. we'll see what might be needed after a trial reboot [12:24] Alright - Rebooting now.

I'll rm mod and try again - right after pasting xorg.0 [12:38] optirun: yes good idea [12:39] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6843559/ [12:39] hola [12:39] No change. Blackscreen on login. [12:40] is prime not meant to run with X.org 1.15 and newer? [12:40] optirun: yes the log shows no compatible NVIDIA X driver found.. [12:40] line 189 of the paste [12:40] daftykins: It shoudln't - It was built for newer xorgs as a much better replacement for bumbleebee [12:41] yeah, i just thought an article i'd read was referring to 1.15 and newer [12:41] nm :) [12:41] glitsj16: Now that's weird. Even nvidia themsleves say 331 is for 740M [12:41] optirun: we need to rebuild the dkms module to see what exactly happened [12:41] did you download it from the site rather than use a packaged version? [12:41] optirun: yes that card should fly [12:41] True. My Xorg is 1.14.5 [12:42] But I'm on xedgers - I don't think a newer one exists for ubuntu. [12:42] optirun: i don't think so no, not on saucy [12:43] optirun: why are you on xedgers? [12:43] hitsujiTMO: For nvidia 319. 740M needs 319 or above. [12:43] optirun: its in the repos [12:43] hitsujiTMO: Should I ppa-purge and see if that makes a difference? [12:44] optirun: I would. the ppa should only be used if you require it for specific features [12:44] hitsujiTMO: optirun mentioned that the 319 pulled in the 331 as a dependency .. never saw that before [12:45] glitsj16: o.O that could be a bug with the packages in the ppa. should not happen [12:45] hitsujiTMO: indeed, i haven't advised optirun yet to check/try to confirm that [12:46] Purging x-edgers. [12:46] optirun: whats the output of: dpkg --get-selections | grep nvidia [12:46] I'm about to purge all nvidia packages, so It will output nothing. After downgrading and purging the ppa I'd rather a fresh start [12:47] optirun: you using ppa-purge? [12:47] hitsujiTMO: Yes. [12:48] optirun: cool. that will purge the ppa, but you'll be downgraded to the equiv repo versions. can you please still give the output so we can see what was installed [12:48] hitsujiTMO: Alright [12:48] optirun: is this 12.04 or 13.10 btw? [12:48] 13.10 [12:48] You are trying to send an empty document, exiting. [12:49] Your command returned nothing [12:49] optirun: ok. so no items installed [12:49] 319-updates or just 319? [12:49] just 319 [12:50] Installing now. [12:50] optirun: are you looking to use bumblebee or nvidia-prime? [12:51] I liked the do-release-upgrdae solution, thanks daftykins [12:51] prime definitely. Bumblee is far too much hastle for what I do. I'd have to opti-run way too much. [12:51] lacrymology: is it running and resuming where it left off? [12:51] Wow... using irssi without spell check ... sorry for the appauling sentences. [12:51] daftykins: it's running apt-get update apparently [12:52] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6843611/ [12:52] Your command now outputs the above. [12:52] optirun: ok.what are you now getting after a reboot? [12:53] hitsujiTMO: optirun: control file of the 319 deb from xorg-edgers does pull in 331 --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6843612/ .. [12:53] I'll reboot now - Be right back. [12:54] how can i change the font? [12:54] I'm not fond over how chrome or firefox looks [12:54] glitsj16: i guess their intention is to force an upgrade of 319 to 331, they are edgers after all :P [12:55] hitsujiTMO: lol, i don't mind edges .. unless they target below the waste :p [12:55] lol [12:55] where were the days that nvidia drivers updated once a year .. nostalgia strikes [12:56] After reboot - There was a change... my mouse showed for about 5 seconds, and I was able to move it, then once lightdm loaded fully... it was gone. After loggin it, blackscreen with mouse, mouse disappeared after 1.5 seconds. [12:57] glitsj16: its just funny now that 12.04 has 331 and 13.10 doesn't :P [12:57] daftykins: it looks like it's doing the right thing, on the command line, though, no GUI [12:57] daftykins: I'm ok with that, just saying [12:57] optirun: ok. get open a terminal and we'll see whats happening [12:57] optirun: you got pastebinit installed? [12:57] hitsujiTMO: all good info though, at least the channel can advise on what not to do [12:57] hitsujiTMO: Yup, I've been using it with the /exec -o option.

Launcher works good but after clicking Play button the game will not start, what should i do? is it in wine config or i have just bad luck? [13:35] optirun: more the xedgers broke it.

So at this stage a reinstall would be the best course of action. Now, here's the thing. you can also choose to install 12.04 if you want nvidia-331 with nvidia-prime. or with 13.10 there's the 319 driver. [13:41] Ben64, i need to install windows xp on this computer but i have no idea which drivers to download and where from. i'm using xubuntu 13.10 [13:42] hitsujiTMO: I'm going to try reinstalling mesa and a few other things first [13:42] hitsujiTMO: Which would you reccomend? [13:43] optirun: 12.04 is inherently more stable and you do get the option of the later driver [13:43] steviedon thanks alot [13:43] hitsujiTMO: Alright, I only have a 13.10 disk handy, is there anyway to download and burn the disk from a tty? [13:44] Correction, how to burn the disk. I can get the download [13:44] i ask again, it's possible to redirect outgoin trafic from my localhost to localhost in destination port 3306, to external ip ? [13:44] ( redirection lo interface ) [13:44] optirun: wget from releases.ubuntu.com and burn with woden. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvd/Burning [13:45] anyone know why im getting http://screencloud.net/v/6r1P when trying to install nginx?

Is it wise to set ip range of lets say 192.168.1-254 and then fixed/reseved IP hosts within that range? Or should I set a smaller dynamic range and leave/configure my fixed hosts outside of the dynamic range? [13:46] kiki67100: that will connect you to mysql on hostname:3306 [13:47] LucidGuy: i'd set them outside to avoid irritation [13:47] LucidGuy: Theres nothing stopping the dhcpd giving out one of you fixed addresses then you will end up with an IP conflict which is not good :) [13:48] steviedon, why would dhcpd give out a fixed address if its configed for a specific host within its config? [13:49] Is it that simple it doesnt avoid them? [13:49] LucidGuy: if the dhcp-server has a setting for reserved IPs it shouldn't lease them double [13:50] LucidGuy: as llutz said if its in the dhcpd config it won't give it out twice [13:50] LucidGuy: I meant if you just set the whole range in the dhcpd and then set up a machine localy with a fixed address the dhcpd wont know about it [13:51] steviedon, understood [13:51] thanks [13:55] darius93: nginx version 1.5.9-1 .. did you install that from a PPA? === mikrotik is now known as j [14:00] yes glitsj16 [14:02] darius93: what's wrong with the version from regular repos? just asking .. nginx is a dependency package that pulls in either nginx-full or nginx-light, it shouldn't have a /usr/sbin/nginx of its own, that's why you get the error [14:04] !seen Gandi [14:04] I have no seen command [14:05] darius93: i'm not saying it is bad to have a PPA, but well, it might be broken .. although you can force dpkg to overwrite and stop it complaining, it shouldn't be happening [14:06] darius93 a PPA is an unscreened external software source, potentially dangerous to your system [14:07] darius93: you can .. sudo apt-get install nginx-full (or -light) .. that should keep nginx package uninstalled, but i'm with MonkeyDust .. if you don't need that version for anything special, stay with the repo version [14:08] glitsj16 mainly because the one in the builtin repo isnt up to date and the PCI scans shows an exploit that was found. MonkeyDust I understand that but also its from nginx ppa, not from another ppa [14:09] darius93: if there was a security issue with the ubuntu repo version, that would get an update i think, whatever the version numbers involved [14:10] darius93 what version of nginx was it again? [14:10] llutz: good solution! thanks [14:11] darius93: it seems you've also installed the mainline/dev build [14:11] guys, I keep getting "Failed to open connection to "session" message bus: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11" inside irssi every once in a while [14:12] Yes hitsujiTMO I did installed the mainline build [14:12] darius93: if you're worried about pci compliance you should be installing the stable release [14:12] and the version that had the exploit was 1.4.4 and 1.5.7 (hinch why i was on the latest) [14:14] darius93: so ... the version that had the exploit were 1.4.4 ... which is why you didn;t install 1.4.1 from the repo? that just doesn't make sense [14:15] darius93: whats the cve for the exploit? [14:15] Well I didnt know if 1.4.1 had the exploit or not but I didnt want to take that chance at the moment when the pci scan came back.

Is 1.4.4 in the repo by default or do i have to use the stable ppa of nginx?

[14:21] I have 4 workspaces defined on 12.04 ie 2x2 . I do --> send to workspace 2 and the window just disappears. It does not show on trying alt+tab or on the side launcher bar. Why does this happen [14:21] darius93: if you're worried about pci compliance the worst thing you can do is installed an unvetted version of the software [14:22] well im about to go on back to 1.4.4 and run another scan. [14:22] darius93: well, ok, maybe not as bad as installing a 10 year old copy thats not receiving updates, but you get the idea :P [14:23] Vivekananda i guess there's an option to "show current screen only" or so === hdevalence|away is now known as hdevalence [14:24] Yea lol.

[14:39] pip__, you havent provided enough info to know what the problem is, but it doesnt need to be ntfs to share with windows [14:39] Vivekananda can't find it in Unity, sorry [14:39] compdoc: I kinda realise that now :) It's a new project, so I'm stumbling round a bit [14:40] pip__, I do a lot of that too [14:40] MonkeyDust: Vivekananda what are ye looking for? [14:40] hitsujiTMO: I haven't, but it looks like I'm going to try ext 4 tonight [14:40] pip__: might be for the best anyway [14:41] compdoc: :D [14:41] hitsujiTMO: I have this problem -- I have 4 workspaces defined on 12.04 ie 2x2 . I do --> send to workspace 2 and the window just disappears. It does not show on trying alt+tab or on the side launcher bar. Why does this happen [14:42] hitsujiTMO: surely it can't be any more painful than it is now [14:43] hitsujiTMO: I may even just copy over one file instead of gigabytes of stuff to see if it works first [14:43] Vivekananda: does it show with super + tab? [14:43] Anyone had problems in the past installing git on Ubuntu Server 13.04? [14:44] & it all seemed to be going so well, lol [14:44] utomox there's also #ubuntu-server, and do'nt start your question with "anyone", please [14:45] MonkeyDust, sorry [14:45] utomox: Raring is EOL now and no longer supported [14:45] Anyways - When I run sudo apt-get install git I get this [14:45] http://i.imgur.com/qNie7vk.png [14:45] ActionPa1snip, oh. I installed it on a vps when it was 1 day old and now it's not supported D: [14:46] ah, an EOL release, i wasnt aware [14:46] Oh, no wait [14:46] I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 x64 [14:47] I also expect I've not set up smb.conf correctly or properly [14:47] Vivekananda: alt + tab switches within a single workspace. """ or on the side launcher bar""" unfortunately i'm getting a different behaviour here on 13.10. it does show on launcher [14:47] hitsujiTMO: ? what should I look for [14:47] with super tab ? [14:47] utomox: please don't lie.apache 2.2 is not in 13.10 [14:47] What? [14:47] utomox: I'd do a clean install or Saucy or Precise. Then update to Trusty in APril (or install pre-release Trusty) [14:47] !info apache [14:48] alt+tab works fine if I have not done --> move this windows to workspace2. but after doing that it is just lost ! [14:48] cannot see it anywhere [14:48] !info apache2 [14:48] Package apache does not exist in saucy [14:48] MonkeyDust: is ubottu sleeping? [14:48] utomox: inless is this after an upgrade? [14:48] apache2 (source: apache2): Apache HTTP Server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.4.6-2ubuntu2.1 (saucy), package size 84 kB, installed size 455 kB [14:48] hitsujiTMO, yes, i've ran sudo apt-get update, added git repo, etc [14:48] utomox: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [14:48] super+tab just shows the side launcher hitsujiTMO [14:49] ActionPa1snip, Ubuntu 13.10 \n \l [14:49] utomox: so not 13.04 ;) [14:49] I corrected myself. [14:49] utomox: when did you upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10? [14:49] hitsujiTMO, sorry, i thought you meant apt-get updates. This was a fresh install of 13.10, I thought it was 13.04, sorry [14:50] utomox: can't be a fresh install of 13.10 [14:50] Why? [14:50] ActionPa1snip she's responding with /msg, ok [14:50] utomox: because you install libapache2-mod-auth-mysql [14:51] Im having issues with my nginx. though I startet the php-fcgi instance, it refuses the connection for the webserver [14:51] hitsujiTMO, http://i.imgur.com/jWUV56t.png [14:51] has anyone seen ubuntu 13.04 power down when you type 'reboot' [14:51] !info libapache2-mod-auth-mysql [14:52] Package libapache2-mod-auth-mysql does not exist in saucy [14:52] !info libapache2-mod-auth-mysql raring [14:52] next question: advice on taking a chance with trusty now to avoid a reinstall in april? [14:52] this'll only be a home server -nothing mission critical [14:52] Hey guys, I just read about the AMD Radeon DPM, and I was wondering a few things: the first one being, I'm have [Radeon HD 7500M/7600M], is this supported (i read newer then hd 2000 but i have no idea how this numbering works on graphic cards) ? [14:52] libapache2-mod-auth-mysql (source: mod-auth-mysql): Apache 2 module for MySQL authentication. In component main, is optional. Version 4.3.9-13.1ubuntu1 (raring), package size 21 kB, installed size 92 kB [14:53] utomox: as you can see libapache2-mod-auth-mysql does not exist in 13.10 as its incompatible with apache 2.4 [14:53] So what you're saying is, I can't install git on 13.10? [14:53] utomox: no. what i'm asking is what version of ubuntu are you using? [14:53] 13.10 [14:54] utomox: and this is not from an upgrade from 13.04? [14:54] No [14:54] utomox: then what ppas are you using? [14:55] hitsujiTMO, after the previous command, it told me to run sudo apt-get -f install [14:55] so I did so and got this - http://i.imgur.com/bTaWYnw.png [14:55] Im having issues with my nginx. though I startet the php-fcgi instance, it refuses the connection for the webserver [14:56] utomox: ok. are you installing git from a ppa? [14:56] yes [14:56] ppa:git-core/ppa [14:56] utomox: ok. ppas are unsupported. if that ppa requires libapache2-mod-auth-mysql then its not compatible with 13.10 AT ALL as libapache2-mod-auth-mysql is not available in 13.10 [14:57] utomox: use the version of git in the repo [14:57] I removed libapache when I ran apt-get -f instal [14:57] then reran apt-get install git [14:57] and it worked [14:58] anyone? AMD Radion DPM [15:01] I am having trouble logging in.. [15:02] nicknicknick: what kind of trouble exactly? [15:03] I can get to the login screen, but when I actually type my password and login, it just 'stops'. [15:03] nicknicknick: do you get kicked back to lightdm or does it just "stop" ? [15:04] nicknicknick: lightdm being the login screen that is [15:04] tIt's a mostly blank screen with a working cursor. [15:04] can you open a terminal with: ctrl + alt + t ? [15:04] nicknicknick: ^ [15:04] I'll try, hold on. [15:05] Hi All, How do I delete a rule in Iptables? [15:05] !iptables [15:05] Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [15:07] No, ctrl+alt+t doesn't work, but ctrl+alt+f1 does [15:08] Hello? [15:08] nicknicknick: in the term, login and: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME [15:08] nicknicknick: does the same behaviour exist for the guest user? [15:08] Yes. [15:09] hi [15:10] nicknicknick: so guest also doesn't work? ok. what were you doing before this started happening? what version of ubuntu? i presume this is with unity right? [15:10] It gave me a cryptic error. [15:10] Yep. 13.10 [15:10] I remember installing and unistalling a bunch of software. [15:10] nicknicknick: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME <- gave you a cryptic error? if so what is the error? [15:11] I can't paste it becuase it's another computer, and pretty long. [15:12] nicknicknick: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME 2>&1 | pastebinit [15:12] Oka,y, hold on a sec. [15:12] nicknicknick: that should produce a url, copy the url here [15:12] I know. [15:14] It gave me the same cyrpic error when trying to install pastebinit [15:14] *cryptic [15:14] nicknicknick: whats the gist of the error? [15:15] It fail to read or write something.

[15:24] nicknicknick: it should be easy enough to replace [15:24] thanks for the help guys, cy'all soon [15:24] Where could I find a way to copy my hardrive before it's completely toast? [15:25] nicknicknick: you should create an image with ddrescue, then get your data off the image [15:25] nicknicknick: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery [15:25] Can I specify which folders and partitions? [15:25] Thanks. [15:26] nicknicknick: you can specify whick partition. then mount the image as if its a real drive to get the data [15:27] Ok. [15:28] Thanks, bye!

Try this: "sudo ifconfig eth0 down" then "lsmod | grep forcedeth" ... if the number after "forcedeth" is 0, then do "sudo modprobe -r forcedeth" then, reload the module with "sudo modprobe forcedeth msi=0 msix=0" [16:26] what u mean ? [16:26] the ls cannot be used in a bash script [16:26] enter your DNS server IP / router IP in /etc/resolv.conf how can i do it? [16:26] ls can be used in a bash script [16:27] tykim: it should be provided by your dns provider, why do you want to over-ride it [16:27] tykim: well just check if you have communication now, try pinging your router IP [16:27] DNS can wait [16:27] ikonia, how can it be used [16:27] tortue_: exactly the same as typing it on the command line [16:27] ikonia: don't jump in on that one please, it's already an ongoing convo [16:27] daftykins: no problem, sorry [16:28] np [16:28] but it never do anything when I used it [16:28] MonkeyDust, Thanks I've found some [16:28] tortue_: what do you expect it to do ? how are you using it [16:28] is there a way to know with a command which is the active network im using? I know if i do ifconfig -a I can see all the interaces and see whicone has an IP.. but is there a way to get the active MAC address? [16:28] i dont know i cant start a static connection without the dns [16:28] tykim: Once you've done that, try reconnecting using Network Manager and DHCP [16:28] mman: all mac addresses are active [16:29] tykim: you don't need DNS configured to ping a network-based IP [16:29] I just put it like if it were in the terminal, like any other command [16:29] tortue_: and what happens.... [16:29] mman: Do you mean the default route? "ip route ls" [16:29] nothing happens [16:29] tortue_: then you are not using a script correclty. [16:29] tortue_: pastebin the script for me [16:29] tortue_: exactly as it is written [16:30] Could anyone else using the latest stable release of ubuntu try "xset led 1"? [16:30] it used to work for me [16:30] but now it stopped [16:30] no idea why [16:30] vaskozl: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [16:30] wait a minute [16:30] xset led 3 still works [16:31] and turns on the scroll lock led as intended [16:31] ikonia: what i want to do is get the interface that has an ip [16:31] i used forcedeth and its all blocked now [16:31] mman: you can see it in ifconfig [16:31] mman: the mac address is listed [16:31] ikonia: sometimes you have eth1 and wlan0 and only one has an ip [16:31] thank you for the help [16:31] tykim: you mean it is working? [16:32] ikonia: yes i know :) but is there a way to get just the interface that has already an ip assigned? [16:32] no the pc is freezed [16:32] mman: what are you REALLY trying to do [16:32] Hello! There's an idea for a feature I had, that I think Unity could use, perhaps as something part of Unity 8, or maybe its already underway, I have no idea what to search for if it even exists... Basically, its an idea to put 'Launcher Folders' into the Unity Launcher. You could say, create a single icon called Game(apply it whatever icon you want from a choice!) and put all your installed games and related programs there. [16:32] mman: just explain what you really are trying to do and why [16:32] pascat: log a feature request then [16:32] Is something like that already being thought, or is that something that should be suggested to some community? [16:32] tykim: After which command did it freeze? [16:33] Where do I go to log a feature request? [16:33] tortue_: does it work? [16:33] pascat: it's not driven by the community so you'll need to log a feature request to canonical/ubuntu [16:33] pascat: launchpad.net [16:33] Thanks! [16:33] lsmod | grep forcedeth [16:33] tykim: If the PC locked up at that point there's something badly wrong with the configuration! [16:34] Hello [16:34] yeah i think so [16:34] How to restrict "ps" usage so that the user only sees his own processes. [16:34] it might be that the file were corrupted [16:34] i will try to burn another dvv [16:35] ikonia: im doing a script that sends to a server some information about the pc... hostname, mac, etc etc... but there are sometimes where you have more than one interface ex: eth1 and eth2. But i am sure only one has an IP while the other doesnt. [16:35] dvd [16:35] could someone using X11 please tell me if "xset led 1" and "xset -led 1" turn on/off the numlock light just as "xset led 3" turns on the scrollock?

LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) [17:19] no used command like sudo apt-...

[17:19] tnx trying please support me friend [17:19] ok so say im building a server right now...is it going to be easyer to go from 13.10 - 14.04 or will it be easyer to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 ? [17:20] vfw: Thanks, I have read about it before though. I'll just reinstall Ubuntu. I'm currently dual booting with Windows 7. What happens with GRUB if I remove Ubuntu? [17:20] because 14.04 will be out in a month or so correct? [17:20] grendal_prime: in the 4th month. [17:20] i got a link [17:20] grendal_prime LTS is always preferrable for a server [17:20] kalekip1: You don't have to remove it, just do the install. [17:20] azeem_: so not so noob....yeah [17:21] hmm.yeah got a link [17:21] azeem_: instead of staning on the noob status, try searching when people give you phrases you are unfamiliar with and you will learn [17:21] kalekip1: The grub boot loader will be re-installed.

[17:22] hmm tnx [17:22] kalekip1: Yes. You tell the install app to use those partitions and they will be re-formatted (erased) and the new install will be written to them. [17:22] ok well thanks anyway i was just trying to figer on what would be the quickest safest upgrade in a few months from now [17:22] MonkeyDust, ports 22 are opened in both machines..

[17:23] vfw, yes [17:23] And it seems the ops in a channel here ban that version of ubuntu [17:23] How do I fix that? [17:23] really majic [17:23] because that is not installed by default any more. [17:23] ssh-server that is [17:23] vfw, shall I remove them and install them again? [17:23] subhojit777: Use nmap to see.

[17:24] sudo apt-get install ssh i think will also get the server as well [17:24] woh...sorry but i got a problem rising here [17:24] subhojit777: p not P sorry [17:24] it's not ssh [17:24] it's openssh-server [17:24] subhojit777: nmap -p 22 ###.###.#.# [17:24] ChallengerSS: again: that is not a topic in here. ask the ops why you were banned and how to reveal that ban or ask in #freenode for guideance regarding that ban [17:24] its the same thing that I did before.... [17:25] ok wasnt sure...on the desktop now i think ssh will grab the server as well.. [17:25] hey u there..?

[17:26] grendal_prime: what ? [17:26] ssh [17:27] grendal_prime: what are you talking about - the correct command is "sudo apt-get install openssh-server" why are saying anything else ?

VGA switcheroo is no help. The stock ATI drivers crash compiz. [17:33] and unity. [17:33] Yet the card is supposed to be supported. [17:33] BetaSoul: 13.04 is end of life. what gpus do you have? [17:34] In ubuntu 13.10 with unity with 2 screens (left big screen with launcher expands laptop screen on the right), the launchbar hides but doesnt reappear automatically when mouse comes close to border of screen. Sometimes the shadow of the launchbar appears, but very rarely the launcher appears. I have to press SUPER key. Is there a way to fix that ? [17:34] ATI Radeon Mobility HD 5650(madison). The one with the integrated intel chip. [17:34] How can I add Spanish language via terminal so new user account can be in Spanish [17:34] ' [17:35] jluc, try pushing harder with the mouse. The tolerance for appear is set too low [17:35] BetaSoul: if its possible to disable one, you;d find it in the bios [17:35] BetaSoul: Is this a new install? [17:36] !language support [17:36] vfw, Yes. [17:36] hey, I'll be right back [17:36] BetaSoul: Upgrade to 13.10 or reinstall. [17:36] !languages [17:36] vfw, 13.10 doesn't fix, nor does a re-install. I can't power down the damn ati core. [17:37] BetaSoul: (I don't know if that will solve the problem you are experiencing, but as pointed out earlier, 13.04 is EOL). [17:37] BetaSoul: Then use 12.04 (LTS) [17:37] yes it works BetaSoul. Quite amazing ! But that's un-natural. Is there a way to widen that sensitivity zone ? [17:37] BetaSoul: have you installed fglrx? [17:38] jluc, Yes, in settings, wallpaper, behavior(if i remeber correctly) [17:38] hitsujiTMO, unity and compiz won't load, only wallpaper. [17:38] BetaSoul: I suppose you could blacklist the module for the other card, but I've never had to do that... so... [17:38] Hrm.... blacklist the other card. An idea. [17:38] But not that best. [17:39] Yes it works BetaSoul !! I'm greatly amazed at how simple it is to fix that. No hidden config app to install through a PPA. Thanks a lot ! [17:39] BetaSoul: If both kernel drivers aren't available, the vgaswitceroo driver won't activate, which might deprive you of power-saving knobs [17:40] BetaSoul: Why do you have the add-on card if you are not going to use it? (Just take it out...) [17:41] vfw, laptop. [17:41] O [17:41] Yeah. [17:41] My desktop has a nice support nvidia card. busted wifi, but find video. [17:44] Hey...

[18:11] SonikkuAmerica: 512 [18:12] apb1963: I'd recommend at least 1 if not 2 GB. For a 64-bit, at least 4 [18:12] i tried installing ubuntu via usb but i get a read/64 error -110 during boot [18:13] no go :( [18:13] i dont have wired connection still [18:13] Ntemis: That'll be because the BIOS update broke the MAC address [18:14] Ntemis: You'll need to manually assign a MAC to the interface, I suspect [18:14] i took a backup of the old bios with flashrom [18:14] flashrom -r oldbios.rom [18:14] will that help in anyway? [18:15] SonikkuAmerica: 32 bits... trying 1GB... still hanging... will try 2GB but that's half of what I have installed! XP runs with 1GB... maybe less.. I shouldn't need this much I don't think????? [18:15] apb1963: You... shouldn't... what's the video memory situation? [18:15] Ntemis: What usually causes it, is it writes a bad MAC into the flash during programming. [18:16] SonikkuAmerica: xp runs with 192MB!!! video is 128MB (for both) [18:17] apb1963: SO MANY EXCLAMATION!!!! :) [18:17] Ntemis: You can set your own MAC address using Network Manager, in the interface's connection settings, or if configuring interfaces manually, via "/etc/network/interfaces" and the "hwaddress" keyword [18:17] apb1963: Did you try downloading another mini.iso ? [18:17] SonikkuAmerica: I was astonished [18:17] why not fix the bios? [18:18] Ntemis: If you can... sometimes downgrades are prevented. [18:18] AFUDOS /m000000000000 [18:18] Ntemis: I'm giving you the Linux solution, if ficing BIOS doesn't work [18:18] ;) [18:19] SonikkuAmerica: no... used this same mini to install my currently running system (albeit using deboostrap and having had to burn a fresh cd - which k3b verified) [18:20] SonikkuAmerica: err... meaning that I burned a CD for vbox... not to install my currently running host [18:20] SonikkuAmerica: err... burned a mini cd for vbox. sheesh [18:20] apb1963: Oh! Did you try booting directly from the ISO? [18:20] SonikkuAmerica: I thought about it... but not sure how [18:22] apb1963: Start the machine and go to the "Devices" menu, select "CD/DVD Devices," "Select a virtual...," select the mini.iso and click Open. [18:22] SonikkuAmerica: one other difference is I capped the cpu at 50%... xp I let roam free [18:22] apb1963: Then reset the VM. [18:22] oh cool [18:28] SonikkuAmerica: no go [18:29] apb1963: Hmmm... [18:29] SonikkuAmerica: that's a lot of ... [18:30] apb1963: :) ... === ivan_ is now known as QuantumDot [18:31] TJ can you give me back what were the lines i deleted [18:31] i need the eth0 to write back my mac [18:32] TJ-: can you please type me back the eth0 mac i pasted before?

[18:34] :( [18:34] if u put the chromium chache on /tmp/cache i get rid of it when i reboot right? [18:35] IJan 30 12:24:25 ssh-gateway sshd[6394]: error: bind: Address already in use Jan 30 12:24:25 ssh-gateway sshd[6394]: error: channel_setup_fwd_listener: cannot listen to port: 30000 [18:35] fabio123: yeps - by default atleast [18:35] SonikkuAmerica: hmm... I Have 4 logs now... how do I tell which is most recent? there don't seem to be dates or times?? [18:35] I'm getting that error when trying to use autossh to keep my SSH tunnels open, is there anything i can do? [18:36] mdh___: are you trying to open multiple tunnels ? [18:36] apb1963: Check them, I guess... [18:36] mdh___: the error indicates port 30000 is already in use - [18:36] SolarisBoy: as far as I know, I'm not trying to open multiple tunnel [18:37] Is there a chance that the old connection is holding on to the port for a bit, so this happens on a reconnect? [18:37] mdh___: try to look at what is holding 30000 open - [18:37] lsof -i :30000 [18:37] you may need to prefix with sudo if it is owned by root or such - [18:38] right now there are 2 things from the user that sshes in [18:38] sshd 6434 ssh-login 9u IPv6 17979 0t0 TCP localhost:30000 (LISTEN) sshd 6434 ssh-login 10u IPv4 17980 0t0 TCP localhost:30000 (LISTEN) [18:39] right so the port is in use - one of them may indicate that the process is listening - which would mean that yes you still have old processes running from before - [18:39] Is there a way to release the port immediately after the ssh connection breaks, or to detect that break faster? [18:39] SonikkuAmerica: ok it timestamped when it opened it at the top... so yeah... nothing new to be said :( I'll post the log... maybe something will jump out at you [18:39] i am new to ubuntu i have an hp laptop with 12,04 [18:40] should i upgrade ? [18:40] SolarisBoy: right now, if the connection breaks like a few mins after a failed tunnel open, it can open successfully [18:40] apb1963: Go ahead [18:41] SonikkuAmerica: http://ix.io/ade [18:42] edgar_, it depends on the usage of the laptop, i.e. home/business/dinosaurs [18:43] apb1963: I'll be back in a moment [18:43] edgar_: upgrade .... after april when 14.04 is released [18:44] SonikkuAmerica: ok [18:44] I'm going to try to set my SSH timeout really low to see if that can close the open ports fast enough to fix this problem [18:45] mdh___: thats nothing to do ssh timeouts. you've a rogue instance of ssh server running that's using the port [18:46] mdh___: kill it then restart the sshd [18:46] hi folks [18:46] I'm running 13.10, switched to gnome shell [18:46] hitsujiTMO: i've tried restarting the server, but the problem still persisted [18:47] I'm finding the power management gui incredibly limiting - any good/great alternatives available? [18:48] mdh___: did you kill the rogue process? [18:49] hitsujiTMO: that won't really fix it as it seems the client detects ssh connection timeouts before the ssh server does, and then tries to reconnect but the old ssh process keeps the tunneling ports open [18:49] hitsujiTMO: it'll happen over and over as the connection breaks and restarts [18:50] kieppie1, cant you just install another power manager app? [18:51] marcel__: can't find any (other than KDE) - suggestions [18:51] I think what I need to do is to have some delay in autossh to wait a bit before trying to reconnect [18:51] ? [18:51] kieppie1, what are you looking for [18:51] apb1963: I'm back. [18:52] SonikkuAmerica: wb [18:52] mdh___: i don't think you know much of how tcp/ip works do you? there isn't a process created for every connection. [18:52] kieppie1, i have xfce, xubuntu desktop, power management settings are good [18:53] mdh___: or are you forcing the connection to use a specific port? [18:53] hitsujiTMO: i'm forcing the reverse tunnel to use a specific port on the server [18:53] marcel__: GUI to control power management - set standby/hibernate on idle times, plugged in or batter, maybe option for CPU scaling, etc. something a lot more robust than what's the default. Looking @ the windows power-management system, kinda put ubuntu/linux offering to shame [18:54] mdh___: oh, ok i see [18:54] I think I may have found an answer: ssh option ExitOnForwardFailure to make ssh close if the tunnels don't open [18:54] So it will just keep retrying until the port opens back up [18:54] !java [18:54] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [18:54] mdh___: sorry, i was assuming a standard connection [18:55] apb1963: Oh, this is a VBox log. That's best taken to #vbox to look at. [18:55] hitsujiTMO: no problem [18:55] kieppie1, xfce has that, http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-power-manager/start [18:56] marcel__: cheers - will try that [18:56] kieppie1, xubuntu-desktop is a good choice to install, much cleaner than gnome, my opinion that is [18:58] marcel__: yea - I use xfce on my smaller systems (raspi, etc), but prefer the 'flash' of Gnome shell for regular desktop [18:58] KDE is totally overkill - never got the hang of it === Thor|Away is now known as Thorium220 [19:01] SonikkuAmerica: you had some other log in mind?

[19:03] SonikkuAmerica: where should I look exactly? [19:03] help* [19:03] apb1963: Well in your case if the thing refuses to boot, I might try with another mini.iso (you said this was the 12.04 LTS one, why not try the 13.10 one?) [19:04] digit_, try a different browser, are you able to ping anything? [19:04] Trying to install ubuntu 13.10 on Dell T5600 with NVideo K2000 and am having issues... installs ok, then reboot to log in menu, enter credentials, then it just goes into a comotosed state... any ideas?

[19:55] TJ- no idea what FusionMPT is, sorry. [19:55] hitsujiTMO: Oh? Ahhh you're trying to catch me out! I was adding that info into reading the kern.log. So, we have "/dev/sdb" which is a Seagate ST31000528AS connected internally [19:55] It isn't specific to ubuntu in the guest, as debian does it there too. [19:56] It is how to set a mock hardware value inside the guest from the virtualbox app server.

I suspect that every character is somehow "separate" in the file, has anyone run into this before? [20:00] fsck: Is the problem PC currently still running the 10.04 liveCD? [20:00] TJ-: yup, hes burning the 12.04 disk now [20:01] tj- yes im slow sorry [20:01] fsck: Ok, run this command from a terminal, let's discover if sdb is encrypted: "sudo cryptsetup isLuks /dev/sdb" [20:01] fsck: So long since I used 10.04, it might not have cryptsetup installed by default, though [20:02] tj- sdb is not the disk i need to check, cryptesetup was still in the repos, other things not... [20:02] bekks: Depends on the "terminal". [20:02] fsck: The only other disk showing up is "/dev/sda" which is external USB 3.0, is it that one? [20:03] tj- nope but maybe that was my external backup that was on when i started this session, its now of [20:05] [20:05] fsck: There are no PATA devices being detected by the ata_piix driver. Have you checked cables? [20:05] fsck: was the external backup connected before when it failed to boot? [20:05] tj- and i was shocked not being able to find /dev/sda, still burning live cd btw [20:06] hitsujiTMO yepp, but it did not make any difference if it was on or off when booting. [20:07] im thinking of getting this http://www6.rentacenter.com/rent/computers/laptops/alienware-14-laptop-computer#.Uuqs5_jwDzo , any idea if ubuntu will run on it? cant seem to find ANYTHING on google [20:07] fsck: OK, so ignoring the external USB3, the only drive discovered is the ST31000528AS 1TB as "/dev/sda" which has no partition table [20:07] ubiquitous81, the sound returned when I restarted the application "sound" again. before I'd increased the output volume of speakers, and then maybe selected "digital output" instead of speakers by mistake, and when I selected "speakers" again, the sound was gone. I think it happened like this. [20:07] fsck: what might be going wrong is that you've references by device for the disks, and when you booted, the external was presented as sda meaning it couldn't find the referenced filesystems [20:07] ubuntu4me: Of course Ubuntu will run on it. [20:07] hitsujiTMO: That still makes no sense; without at lease one drive with a recognised partition table, there's no boot-loader [20:08] bekks you know that as fact? if so do im i going to need to do some funky things to get it to work? [20:08] TJ-: i'm assuming /boot is outside the luks partition which is the norm [20:08] hitsujiTMO ive had that idea too, but it couldnt find my system hd , or would not boot, when that usb hd was off as well, at least most times, or more and more often, my system was hanging too when i could boot it after a while [20:09] ubuntu4me: All compoments are supported. Intel CPU, Nvidia graphics chipset, etc. [20:09] fsck: i've seen similar issues happen with debian [20:09] ubuntu4me: And you have to beb aware that it uses Nvidia Optimus, which is funky to get to work. [20:10] hitsujiTMO thanks. live cd now baked, will prbb. cost 10 mins to boot from this, hope it works. [20:11] bekks: would installing bummblebee help and how hard is it to get it working? [20:11] ubuntu4me: the new way to do it is nvidia-prime. much more straight forward [20:12] ubuntu4me: I never dealt with bumblebee, but it should work pretty easy. Another approach would be nvidia-prime. [20:12] tj- hitsujiTMO bye and thx for helping, i will prbb. be back if i cant handle :) [20:12] hitsujiTMO: thank you will get it. hopeing to be able to play some steam games on it with out and lag [20:14] bekks: and thank you as well. i didnt for get you :) === Jan11 is now known as ON1 [20:18] I'm having some issues using the boot-repair utility to reinstall grub after lenovo tech support messed it up - I keep getting warnings about EFI: "EFI detected, please check the options" when I start boot-repair. If I try using the recommended repair, I get "The boot of your PC is in legacy mode. You may want to retry after changing it to EFI mode". If I choose "UEFI only" in BIOS, though, I can't boot the boot-repair CD at all. I'm not sure how I should [20:18] proceed? [20:19] Oh, and it also suggests "Alternatively, you may want to retry after deactivating the [Seperate /boot/efi partition:] option.", but I'm not really sure about anything at this point [20:19] !efi [20:19] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [20:19] Guys, I have suddenly noticed samba server can not access to the ldap and this is the error: http://pastebin.com/fptr5gER [20:20] I cannot access shared files and that's quite urgent to be solved [20:21] detail is also available here: http://goo.gl/Sm3JMP [20:22] jhutchins: Yeah, I did see that article when I installed xubuntu back in the day, and disabled secureboot as suggested. I just followed the defaults in the installation, though, so I'm not even sure if its installed in UEFI mode or not [20:24] But I'm not really sure how I should proceed - should I try and follow the "Converting Ubuntu into Legacy mode" steps and try recovering grub after that? [20:25] hi everyone [20:25] anyone know where I can go to help get involved in development of 14.04 [20:26] Or is there some way I can get the boot repair disc started in UEFI mode rather than legacy mode? [20:26] !getinvolved [20:26] To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://community.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu [20:26] thx [20:26] See also #ubuntu+1 for specific Trusty discussion :) [20:26] hello i am new on ubuntu . what i u thing about ubuntu studio 13.10? [20:26] dixon: I was just there, all quiet though [20:27] *rww [20:27] yeah, it's a bit slow [20:27] Dysmas: you didnt ask a single question there :) [20:27] what u thing is better? [20:27] dixon: better than? [20:28] regular ubuntu or ubuntu studio? [20:28] dixon: Depending on your particular use case. [20:28] bekks: true, guess I was just seeing if anyone wanted to talk development [20:28] dixon studio is multimedia dedicated, for musicians and such [20:29] ohhh ok [20:29] Dysmas: It's a support channel, not a general discussion channel. :) [20:29] what is the best linux distro? [20:29] hi, I got no sound with ubuntu 12.04, I have a mothercard with integrated sound, I got not speakers [20:29] !best | dixon [20:29] dixon: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [20:29] You're in #ubuntu, so of course we are going to say Gentoo. [20:31] Thank u for u time [20:32] how to make compiz work on ubuntu studio 13.10? [20:33] dixon #ubuntu-studio [20:33] dixon #ubuntustudio, even [20:35] I try for some reason don't work [20:36] do I need speakers to have sound ith ubuntu, I got mothercard with integrated sound but no sound with 12.04, windows is fine [20:37] vtreyntby in a terminal, type alsamixer... if you see MM, go there and press m... use the arrows to navigate === hansberger is now known as threehouse === threehouse is now known as treehouse [20:38] hey folks I have an odd issue [20:42] I'm trying to copy a large amount of files to an external hdd. However, it keeps hanging after a while, hence not finishing the copy. Het external hdd is formatted in ntfs. A few times the hang was followed by an entire freeze of xfce. Anyone happen to have a clue what's going on? [20:42] bekks: is there a general discussion channel? [20:42] every time i try do an apt-get install [20:43] I always get no pcakages will be installed [20:43] luilakde1e: can you pastebin the contents of /var/log/syslog [20:44] Dysmas #ubuntu-offtopic [20:44] MaxSan1: what are you trying to install? [20:45] erm [20:45] MonkeyDust: Thx [20:45] loads things [20:45] java [20:45] some libbs [20:46] MaxSan1: and everything is getting the same 0 packages to install? [20:46] dafuq.. so I installed apache2, right. Permission denied everywhere :O [20:46] yup [20:46] MaxSan1: How are you finding the package names? [20:46] MaxSan1: sudo apt-get install pastebinit [20:46] I need to set www-data as owner for every file in /var/www, don't I? [20:47] hmmm [20:47] so every package name i have been installing is wrong [20:47] which seems odd [20:47] also [20:47] whats the difference between apt-get and aptitude] [20:48] sight..... [20:48] MaxSan1: they're different frontends to the APT package management system. apt-get is included by default on Ubuntu and tends to behave more normally out of the box. [20:48] so how do I give myself permission to the www-data group? [20:48] openjdk-6-jdk fails [20:48] also, how do I give the www-data group access to everything my user has permission to? [20:49] !info openjdk-6-jdk [20:49] openjdk-6-jdk (source: openjdk-6): OpenJDK Development Kit (JDK). In component universe, is extra. Version 6b27-1.12.6-1ubuntu2.1 (saucy), package size 10918 kB, installed size 34075 kB [20:49] it is zero all over [20:49] MaxSan1: have you done sudo apt-get update recently? [20:49] MaxSan1: aptitude does not have super cow powers [20:49] i ran update [20:49] upgrade [20:49] and dist-update [20:50] dist-upgrade* [20:50] MaxSan1: open /etc/apt/sources.list, paste its contents into http://paste.ubuntu.com/ , link the page it creates here [20:51] Trying to pastebin - firefox froze. The party must be getting started again [20:51] pastebin.com/MavmQpKG [20:52] MaxSan1: erm, I take it the stuff on lines 7 to 11 is a mispaste? [20:53] Hi. I'm running an ubuntu 13.10 server and for the most part, it ran fine after set-up. However, sometimes it appears to freeze and when I reboot, it takes ages to do anything, first showing this http://i.imgur.com/Xz5Chkq.png (you can see how long it took for it to remount md1, although it doesn't even say why) and then this http://i.imgur.com/PXJ7mZd.png which I don't even think makes any sense. I thought /tmp is using tmpfs, why ... [20:53] LOL yes its not really in the file [20:53] hello [20:53] Hi. Is there a list of packages in Ubuntu that are not in Debian, and vice versa? Thanks. [20:53] didnt even notice that :D [20:53] ... wouldn't it be ready? At this point, the machine pretty much freezes. Pressing S or M does nothing. On this same hardware and on the same softraid, I used to run an Arch installation which had no problems. Furthermore, if I reboot into recovery mode, things are running slowly as well. Dropping to the root shell takes 5 minutes or so. Doing a shutdown -r now never happens (I can still hit enter to print newlines but nothing ... [20:53] ... happens. It doesn't even accept ctrl-alt-del). [20:53] Clues? [20:53] MaxSan1: if pastebinit installed: pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list [20:54] Trying to install ubuntu 13.10 on Dell T5600 with NVideo K2000 and am having issues... installs ok, then reboot to log in menu, enter credentials, then it just goes into a comotosed state... any ideas? [20:54] MaxSan1: ok. pastebin the output of sudo apt-get update and the output of apt-cache policy openjdk-6-jdk [20:54] fyi im running ubuntu server [20:54] I checked the raid for errors from the recovery shell. It's fine. [20:54] Mint 13 works fine [20:54] Nvidia K2000 driver? [20:54] Shapeshifter: are the partitions encrypted? [20:55] my mac will not show the cd image when i bout up when i ham holding the alt key [20:55] hitsujiTMO: nope. [20:56] hitsujiTMO: I also checked /etc/fstan from the recovery console, making sure it was using UUIDs that match what blkid says, and everthing is fine. [20:56] *fstab [20:56] Shapeshifter: You might read up on the SysRq key and how to use it for troubleshooting. [20:57] Shapeshifter: You might also try to do a controlled restart with fsck, sudo shutdown -Fr now [20:57] jhutchins: it's too bad I'm unable to send SysRq through this remote kvm :/ [20:59] hmmm === sd is now known as Guest8000 [20:59] sudo apt-get update > some.doc | pastebinit some.doc [20:59] thats no good? [20:59] Shapeshifter: If you have some ssh access, even if too slow to do much of anything else, you can "echo foo | sudo tee /proc/sysrq-trigger". [21:00] I set the www dir, recursively, as owned by group www-data, and my current user is part of that group. But still no access ='(... [21:00] i have to go inside said id go watch stuff with the misses [21:00] thanks for the help guys. Il battle on later. [21:00] Jordan_U: thanks for the tip. [21:00] Shapeshifter: You're welcome. [21:00] And the entire system froze again - Alas no time left, it shall be a job for tomorrow. Until then. [21:02] treehouse: I think the current packages may default to "Deny All". [21:03] problem: when I save files... apache can't open them since they aren't saved as www-data. What the hell do I do? :3 [21:03] Transmission isn't assiocated with magnet: links :( [21:04] which packages does jockey install as "Broadcom wireless STA driver"?

[21:07] \o/ idk, I don't know what I'm doing. Aren't services, such as apache, running as a user called "www-data" or something, and need speci... wait.. what file rights do apache have? [21:07] rww: is that the only package? [21:08] treehouse: yes they run as that, but they don't need the files to be owned by that user. just readable (o+r) which they are by default [21:08] salut [21:09] stand down private ;) [21:09] i am linda [21:09] :) [21:09] http://j.gs/6040934/my-fecebook-linda [21:09] http://j.gs/6040934/my-video-linda [21:14] lold [21:14] why do I have no sound with a2dp [21:18] !details | RaptorJesus [21:18] RaptorJesus: Please give us full details.

[21:22] myst3r10n: install the package default-jre [21:23] or default-jdk if you're going to be writing Java stuff [21:23] i need the JDK [21:23] nobody knows why my bluetooth don't work? [21:23] myst3r10n: on 13.04 or 12.04 ? [21:23] myst3r10n: 3.8.0-29? is a kernel version, not an Ubuntu version. And it is not related to installing java. [21:23] !java | myst3r10n [21:23] myst3r10n: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [21:23] it's ubuntu 12.04.3-server [21:24] i do now install default-jdk thx :) [21:24] myst3r10n: Then just refer to the article given by ubottu. === VlanY is now known as VLanX [21:32] got my answer [21:32] http://pastebin.mozilla.org/?dl=4140790 column 1:debian sid; column 2:ubuntu saucy; column 3:common [21:33] ok, so I need the user and/or group www-data to have access to a certain directory at all times. How do I do that? I can chown.. but more importantly: how do I maintain that if a completely other user is creating and editing files in that directory? === xubuntu is now known as Guest765 [21:35] treehouse: do you mean that it needs read access? [21:35] yes, and potentially write access (file uploads) [21:37] treehouse: by default it should have read access (assuming you never changed the umask). you should only add write access to spefic folders that needs to be writable and no more. use chmod o+w for that [21:37] fuck ass [21:37] RaptorJesus: lol [21:37] RaptorJesus: are you just looking to be permanently banned ? [21:39] hitsujiTMO: but if I create a file with gedit, and saves it in the www dir, www-data won't have any access [21:40] hello all [21:40] treehouse: it should have read access. your default umask should be 0002 which would create the file with 664 permission, which means it will have global read access [21:41] Using network-manager-openconnect (cisco anyconnect) to connect to university VPN.

[22:07] hitsujiTMO: looks like it's only the CPU usage of my share [22:08] kalekip1_: they use the same theme, just a different version. there's most likely compatibility issues as the one in 13.10 will target specific software versions within 13.10. you could attempt to port it to 12.04 [22:09] I will ask in #linode [22:09] hitsujiTMO: I want it so bad :P Any idea where I can get it? [22:09] kalekip1_: what elements of the theme are missing for you? [22:10] hitsujiTMO: I can make a whole list :P [22:10] codepython777: what is your problem? [22:10] top 3 things. want to know if its actually part of the theme or the DE [22:11] guntbert: I'm coming from debian where those sources list is usually 3-4 lines.

[22:13] kalekip1_: 14.04 is out in year 14 month 04 ... so april [22:13] hitsujiTMO, do you know how to set up ubuntu to show a welcome message like this when you sign in? http://imgur.com/GwteYkb [22:14] Hey all, question... I have hosts.deny set up, but from what I can tell... I'm not exactly sure if the system is even looking at that file to block hosts, is there some configuration file I can check into? [22:14] hitsujiTMO: OK, thanks. I can't wait longer than two weeks. I'll just install 13.10 :/ [22:14] andrewjs18: itsa called motd [22:14] how to install virtual box?? [22:14] its since some hours i saw vswap at 100%. i could not ssh over the server. i then rebooted it. vswap is now 0%. site still down i can't ssh. i have launched the member:console. a netstat -antpl give me no result. a nmap localhost can't reach http://125.0.0.1/. i have disable firewall right now. still nothing.. i have restarted apache .. now only apache is listening.. but the site still down.. anyone can help please [22:15] k1l, where is it located to edit? [22:15] vahid: install the virtualbox package [22:15] !virtualbox | vahid [22:15] ya [22:15] vahid: Virtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [22:15] vahid: compdoc gave you an answer.. [22:15] andrewjs18: the sys info is from landscape common. other info is generated from the motd scripts in /etc/update-motd.d/ [22:15] vahid: Open the terminal and type: sudo apt-get install virtualbox [22:15] darkxploit: what do expect at 125.0.0.1? or was it a typo? [22:15] install virtual box im new user ubuntu [22:16] hitsujiTMO, I see..ty [22:16] vahid: OK, that's cool. But you know what a terminal is, right? [22:16] F41L: iptables or ufw is the norm on ubuntu [22:16] andrewjs18: the general scripts are in /etc/update-motd.d/ but the hardware reccources display needs some more scripts. [22:16] @gunbert its not suppose to be able to reach localhost with the nmap right ? [22:17] install but eror [22:17] vahid: which error? [22:17] not install kernel or driver [22:18] !details | vahid [22:18] vahid: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [22:18] Is it safe to just use the pre-release of 14.04? [22:19] kalekip1_: honestly: if you need to ask this dont use alpha/betas [22:19] kalekip1_: it's not supported or recommended. it probably won't explode your cat, but if it does you get to fix it [22:19] rww cats are good. [22:19] vahid: if there is a communication issue then maybe try a local support channel: #ubuntu-ir [22:20] kalekip1_ it's not stable, so better not use it as a production system [22:20] darkxploit: localhost is supposed to be found at 127.0.0.1 [22:20] MonkeyDust: It's just for home. Not for the office or anything. [22:20] yea thats it.. 127.0.0.1 [22:20] typo [22:20] kalekip1_ rephrase: it's not ready, yet [22:21] kalekip1_: if you don't mind if it breaks, and you don't have data on it you need, then go right ahead [22:21] how to install blututhe in back box?? [22:21] MonkeyDust: Alright, I will use 13.10 then. [22:22] so my fully functional ubuntu server is hanging on boot at initializing scsi disks - i can't seem to find a solution to how to treat this problem anywhere, any suggestions? [22:23] i say hanging, but i am able to still use the initramfs built-in commands [22:24] !who | darkxploit [22:24] darkxploit: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [22:24] attacheddisk: Is this the first boot after installing, or was it previously working? [22:25] no, it's been working fine for months [22:25] darkxploit: have a look at the log file: /var/log/syslo [22:25] ok [22:25] Just successfully added a ppa, but apt-get install still seems to be installing the older version in the default repo. Will the package in the ppa have a different name? What could be going wrong? [22:25] the only change i made was commenting out one mount point in /etc/fstab which i know is unrelated - i've had this problem before but a couple reboots usually just "fixes itself" [22:25] !guntbert [22:26] ok [22:26] now i got it [22:26] and.......... after trying a couple of old kernels to boot from, i was able to get past it. must be some change in one of the kernel updates? very weird. [22:26] darkxploit: no need for the ! (or @), the nick alone does alert me [22:27] @gunbert does it work [22:27] @guntbert [22:27] darkxploit: try this: type gun [22:27] attacheddisk: compare the "root=..." kernel command-line entry with what the initrd can see of devices [22:27] guntbert: [22:27] ya [22:28] darkxploit: thats it :-) [22:28] boggle: run apt-get update first to update the apt-cache [22:28] guntbert: ok now i got it [22:28] darkxploit: have a look at the log file: /var/log/syslog [22:28] guntbert: error.log.1 and access.log.1 seem ok [22:29] guntbert: I'm trying desg and messages for the time being to investigate into the matter [22:29] I put the user www-data in the root group.. how do I pull it out of there? === linuxuz3r is now known as derpXD [22:30] darkxploit: you said apache works now anyway - I was thinking about ssh - you can try to start the ssh server: sudo service ssh start [22:30] treehouse: are u on a server with just command line or on a GUI [22:30] both [22:30] desktop (got a terminal :3) [22:31] hitsujiTMO: hahaha, i'm an idiot. thanks a lot!

[23:00] skinux: What do you mean? [23:02] Oog: use a !pastebin to show us the contents of that file [23:02] guntbert: i figured it out - it is running but failing - i was getting emails on the local system [23:02] ut nothing i syslog [23:03] new problem is i made a .forward file, put my email in it, but emails arent being forwarded (running sendmail) [23:04] I'm trying to use recordMyDesktop, however, after recording there are still black borders at left and right screen edges. Upon starting recording the GUI disappeared, so I don't know what to do. [23:04] hi all... skinux have you tried SimpleScreenRecorder??? [23:04] Nope. [23:05] give it a go...

[23:27] hola [23:29] hla [23:32] Bray90820: that was the only thing that was ever developed to try and solve silverlight on linux. should work in any browser that support npapi which is most that support plugins [23:33] kbrosnan: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/pipelight-using-silverlight-in-linux-browsers.html [23:34] more or less running wine from a quick glance [23:34] my sendmail works but .forward is being ignored ideas? do i need to logout/login? [23:35] at that point you might as well run ie in wine or any other browser [23:35] IE lol [23:36] if you want silverlight to work really well. yeah use ie. [23:37] If you want anything to work you stay away from Internet destroyer === JanC is now known as Guest9638 [23:38] ok so in math we have to turn in our notes and homework... the teacher grades it then gives it back and says to hold on to it to study for finals [23:38] i have a least 100 pages of lined paper some 2 sided [23:38] and? [23:38] what is the best and fastest way to get them into my computer as digital copy where i can read through it [23:38] harris: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. === kruxoman_ is now known as kruxoman [23:41] i would like to run lubuntu from a usb because i have an old machin without hd so how could i do it? [23:41] iso and l;ive disk miguelangello [23:42] harris: unless the paper is all printed it would be rather complicated to do handwriting recongition on it. likely better to take the time and type it in, practice your typing skills and and a chance to re-review the content [23:43] ? [23:43] harris, ? [23:43] assuming it does not have a ton of graphs or math [23:43] or other hard to represent data in text [23:43] harris, what app could i use to do it? === Guilherm_ is now known as GuilhermeCunha [23:45] Any idea what could be wrong: When I start a second user session (switch user), the second user has no sound. === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [23:54] harris: scan it, with a scanner with a duplex ADF. [23:54] ok thanks i decided not to scan them [23:55] harris: as for OCR-ing => handwriting => bad. Math notes is even worse, as practice shows that hand written formulas are often quite different type set in printed texts. === Kitar|st_ is now known as Kitar|st [23:56] harris: if you have a nice scanner, scanning becomes like making a backup for paper.
