| zykotick9 | prayer: to bad backbox isn't supported here... | 00:03 |
| casual_boot | is 12.10 still supported? | 00:03 |
| casual_boot | oh, it is in the topic. | 00:04 |
| prayer | it's ubuntu based, should'nt a solution for ubuntu work for back box? | 00:04 |
| VINCENZO | ciao | 00:04 |
| prayer | if not can you point me in the right direction? | 00:05 |

| hewhomust | lol | 00:05 |
| casual_boot | Well I still have trouble making 12.10 64bit NOT to use 2 RAM regions. memmap= is allowed to be used only once in /etc/default/grub and GRUB_BADRAM= seems like not recognized (I still see all memory available) | 00:05 |
| vanishing | prayer: as you can see here: http://www.backbox.org/about | 00:06 |
| vanishing | backbox is not a product of ubuntu, nor is it supported by ubuntu | 00:06 |
| vanishing | I think your best shot is to post on their community | 00:07 |
| vanishing | or chat with them: under their community page | 00:08 |
| prayer | :( ok thank you | 00:08 |
| vanishing | np:) good luck | 00:08 |

| Gerowen | Anybody know why, when I open an XCF image I have saved, I'm unable to do anything to it? I can use the toolbox to make changes, but most menu options get grayed out. I can't export, use filters, etc. I've deleted the .gimp-2.8 folder and re-opened it, didn't help. I can modify existing .png and .jpg images, just not this .xcf one. | 03:41 |
| cjwelborn | Gerowen: check the file permissions. | 03:42 |
| cjwelborn | stat myimage.xcf | 03:42 |
| cjwelborn | if you have access, you may need to set it to read/write. chmod +rw myimage.xcf .. or if needed: sudo chmod a+rw myimage.xcf ..this would let everyone read/write it though. | 03:43 |

| therufus | is there anyone in here? | 11:46 |
| ikonia | yes, why | 11:46 |
| therufus | oh good | 11:46 |
| therufus | can anyone help me install glib 2.16 on *buntu 12.04LTS? | 11:47 |
| therufus | I've googled it and every site doesn't help at all | 11:47 |
| ikonia | therufus: what is your end goal, why do you want a different glib versio n | 11:48 |
| therufus | Trying to install uTorrent server on my box | 11:48 |
| ikonia | !info utorrent | 11:48 |
| therufus | had it all working 100% on Ubuntu 10LTS | 11:48 |

| === notwist is now known as Guest14534 | ||

| ikonia | just a moment | 11:50 |
| therufus | I googled "ubuntu install glibc 2.16" and tried everything on the first page of google | 11:50 |
| ikonia | you really don't want to be mixing versions like that | 11:50 |
| ikonia | give me a minute to actually look at this software | 11:50 |
| therufus | no worries | 11:51 |
| therufus | when I run utserver I get "utserver: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.16' not found (required by utserver) | 11:52 |
| ikonia | yes I understand | 11:52 |
| therufus | cool | 11:52 |
| === LjL is now known as Guest23977 | ||
| therufus | ok, it seems I have something called EGLIBC 2.15. Which apparently is the latest version | 11:56 |

| elixir | Hi, one quick question- There are many files by the name xyz1-dev-abc1-debug.so, xyz2-dev-abc2-debug.so, xyz3-dev-abc3-debug.so, and so on.. in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/ | 11:57 |
| elixir | Now, how can I rename them from terminal as: xyz1-abc1.so, xyz2-abc2.so and so on.. | 11:57 |
| ikonia | you shouldn't rename package config files | 11:58 |
| ikonia | that would be a very bad move | 11:58 |
| elixir | why? | 11:58 |
| ikonia | because other files reference them | 11:58 |
| === pretty_function is now known as 23LAA1JTW | ||
| therufus | don't worry, I'm not doing anything. Simply observing | 11:59 |
| elixir | the other that references them by xyz1-abc1.so, xyz2-abc2.so and so on whereas the files present in pkgconfig are the former names - that is why i need to rename them | 12:00 |
| elixir | ikonia: ^^ | 12:00 |
| ikonia | elixir: you shouldn't be renaming them | 12:00 |
| ikonia | elixir: they are named version specific, so you should not be changing them | 12:00 |
| elixir | Ok. | 12:00 |
| elixir | Got it! | 12:00 |
| ikonia | therufus: ok, so looking through the software, the bad news is, it appears utorrent is pretty much depending on old software | 12:00 |
| therufus | oh balls | 12:00 |
| therufus | wait..... OLD software? | 12:01 |
| therufus | but it needs a newer version | 12:01 |
| ikonia | therufus: no, it needs a newer version of the legacy 1.x branch | 12:01 |
| therufus | oh, ok | 12:01 |
| ikonia | therufus: glib is version 2 as well as version 1 | 12:02 |
| === cohnation_ is now known as cohnation | ||
| ikonia | therufus: problem you've got is that ubuntu doesn't package the version you want, | 12:02 |
| ikonia | therufus: which I appreciate you already know, | 12:02 |
| therufus | yes | 12:02 |
| therufus | so i'm just guessing, but EGLIBC replaces glibc? | 12:03 |
| ikonia | what I'd suggest you do (I'm still reading so not done yet) is to consider trying to move your torrent software to a product that is supported / packaged by major linux distributions so that you're not going to get dependency locked going forward | 12:03 |
| ikonia | elibc is an alternative to glibc - but keep in mind glibc is NOT glib | 12:03 |
| therufus | and I'm therefore guessing that I cannot install an old glibc with eglib already installed | 12:04 |
| ikonia | glibc is not glib | 12:04 |
| therufus | ahhh | 12:04 |
| ikonia | they are totally different | 12:04 |
| ikonia | hence why I stopped you urgently earlier | 12:04 |
| === diverdude is now known as Guest73096 | ||
| therufus | my brain is in reporting mode, not doing mode right now ;) | 12:05 |
| ikonia | there are ways to work around the problem you are having, but being honest going forward you'll hit this problem over and over, and possibly break other things that want to use glib. | 12:05 |
| therufus | hmmm | 12:05 |
| ikonia | this is why I suggest making a decision now to move to a torrent client/setup that is provided by major distros so you can be sure that dependencies will always be met | 12:05 |
| therufus | maybe you could suggest something? | 12:06 |
| SpaghettiCat | therufus: rtorrent or deluge | 12:06 |
| therufus | this is my server. I was running utorrent as a web frontend | 12:06 |
| ikonia | a good start is to search for torrent in the package manager to see whats available, then narrow it down from there | 12:06 |
| SpaghettiCat | I wonder why you picked uT in the first place tbh | 12:06 |
| therufus | I was using rtorrent but after 3 months of tearing my hair out, I couldn't get a webUI setup | 12:06 |
| therufus | so I moved to UT | 12:07 |
| ikonia | therufus: ok, so if you're having problems, people can and will help you, rather than select the wrong product | 12:07 |
| SpaghettiCat | therufus: The most popular web-frontend for rtorrent is RuTorrent, and it has a huge following. It shouldn't be difficult to set it up | 12:07 |
| therufus | oh, nobody could help me at the time | 12:07 |
| therufus | I loved rtorrent, and I had a great setup where I could just drop a .torrent file in my mapped drive in windows and rTorrent would download it. But to check on the progress, I'd have to crack open PuTTY which was annoying | 12:08 |
| therufus | ok, i'll install rTorrent then. You have no idea how much I appreciate your help. | 12:11 |

| PotatoHead007 | Waraqa should jou not file a bug report? | 15:31 |
| Pici | Waraqa: It sounds like what you did worked as intended. | 15:31 |
| kazak1377 | PotatoHead007: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup | 15:31 |
| Pici | PotatoHead007: freenode services are having issues currently, I'd wait a day or so before trying to register. | 15:31 |
| PotatoHead007 | Ok thanks | 15:31 |
| Waraqa | Pici: PotatoHead007 but the installer didn't tell me it will remove windows | 15:31 |
| supermat | PotatoHead007: you should ask in #freenode, not in #ubuntu ;) But nickserv is currently lagging. | 15:32 |
| PotatoHead007 | Waraqa you mean you used wubi to install Ubuntu on window 8? | 15:32 |

| === Guest29556 is now known as troll | ||
| PotatoHead007 | But do you have windows 8? | 15:33 |
| Waraqa | PotatoHead007: Yes I have | 15:33 |
| kazak1377 | Waraqa: i suggest you to use only advanced patition method;) | 15:33 |
| PotatoHead007 | Yea, only the advanced partitioning method works, as the Ubuntu installer does not usually detect windows 8 | 15:34 |
| Waraqa | kazak1377: Right, But this is a misleading installer | 15:34 |
| PotatoHead007 | It is a problem with the UEFI system | 15:34 |
| Waraqa | PotatoHead007: Please add this as a warning in the installer | 15:35 |
| kazak1377 | Waraqa: PotatoHead007 answered to you$) this is the UEFI issue((( | 15:35 |
| Waraqa | PotatoHead007: UEFI and Secureboot are disabled | 15:35 |

| hermacet | Hello, i'm running firefox 26.0 and i'm trying to set it up so it can open magnet links. I've tried adding network.protocol-handler.expose.magnet in about:config, but nothing happens. It wont even say that it doesnt know what to do with the damn protocol. Any ideas here? | 18:07 |

| hermacet | I'm trying to make firefox 26 recognize magnet links, to no avail in about:config. Any ideas on how to solve this? | 18:22 |
| phet | Beldar: if I reboot with monitor connected, it flickers, I can see something, then all blank | 18:22 |
| zykotick9 | phet: i don't have "Displays" on my non-gnome system, so I use arandr (a gui frontend to xrandr), but it has a handy feature, save to script. which means i just have a couple of scripts in ~/bin to enable/disable monitors connected to my netbooks... just food for thought. | 18:23 |

| sk1special | any recommendations for a good video converter? one size fits all | 18:26 |
| sybariten | what is the difference between 4 and 3 digit umask? | 18:27 |
| zykotick9 | sk1special: avconv/ffmpeg is great, but terminal based... | 18:27 |
| Beldar | phet, Seems you have issues with the desktop showing all by itself, I would get that resolved first. | 18:27 |
| Physikum | Anyone know anything about PhotoRec? | 18:27 |
| zykotick9 | sybariten: umask is a subtraction from 7, so 4 would result in 3, and 3 would result in 4... | 18:27 |
| phet | Beldar: everything was working, until I connected monitor | 18:27 |
| sk1special | zykotick9, thats fine ill check it out. | 18:27 |
| phet | zykotick9: ok I have console on the laptop | 18:28 |
| sybariten | zykotick9: 3 and 4 as in three and four digits.... | 18:28 |
| sybariten | number of digits | 18:28 |
| sk1special | anyone know why my scroll bar keeps disappearing in xchat? | 18:28 |
| phet | control alt f2 gives me monitor on laptop | 18:28 |
| Beldar | phet, just connecting a monitor should not make the desktop break, there is more to this story. | 18:28 |
| zykotick9 | sybariten: ahhh, sorry. the 4 is for the first special permission bit (i've never used them) | 18:28 |
| zykotick9 | sybariten: the immutable (non-deletable) flag and such | 18:29 |
| phet | ( Beldar it is a friend problem, who is chatting with me. as far as I know he was modyfying system settings, but never confirmed it, that is what he says) | 18:29 |
| sybariten | zykotick9: mhmmm..... i dont know much about umasks yet | 18:29 |
| phet | being in control alt f2, how can I fix it ? | 18:29 |
| sybariten | but everythign i read online refers to things like 002 007 etc | 18:29 |
| sybariten | and mine is 0000 | 18:29 |
| Beldar | phet, Heh you are a better friend than me I would tell them to come here themselves. ;) | 18:30 |
| zykotick9 | sybariten: so just add the 1st 0, so for the 002 example right 0002 | 18:30 |
| zykotick9 | s/right/write/ | 18:30 |
| sybariten | zykotick9: ok... thx | 18:30 |

It said that I should configure it myself or that I can run for once in "Low graphics mode". Since I don't know how to cinfigure it myself, I chose "Low graphics mode". Then it got stuck in a textual loading screen. | 18:54 |
| Xuisce | Somelauw: hi | 18:54 |
| Somelauw | hi | 18:55 |
| Beldar | Somelauw, In the terminal lspci should identify the graphic hardware, tell the channel that info and your end goal. | 18:56 |
| phet | zykotick9: the output of the lspci is intel mobile 945gse | 18:57 |
| Beldar | !nomodeset | Somelauw try this boot | 18:57 |
| ubottu | Somelauw try this boot: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 18:57 |
| phet | how can I restore my monitor configuration to how it was before it was changed when plugging monitor | 18:58 |

| ubottu | Somelauw: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:58 |
| Somelauw | Or should i try lspici first? | 18:58 |
| Beldar | Somelauw, The nomodeset link has instructions. | 18:58 |
| aptrwlf | Hello | 18:59 |
| Beldar | Somelauw, Your description is void of whether you can really run a command, so I gave you the nomodeset option in case this was the case. | 18:59 |
| hermacet | Beldar, any ideas on direct help page for making firefox 26.0 open magnet links? I've added just about every line in about:config that i've come across, but still no luck. | 18:59 |

| Beldar | hermacet, Magnet is a p2p right? | 19:00 |
| hermacet | heck if i know. I hit a button and i want it to download :p | 19:00 |
| Beldar | matto_D, sudo apt-get update is update sudo apt-get install is the install | 19:00 |
| hermacet | I use kubuntu 13.10 btw, with Ktorrent | 19:00 |
| Somelauw | Beldar: ok, I'll try | 19:01 |
| Beldar | hermacet, Magnet is a p2p you need to link it with a p2p app like transmission... etc. At least as far as I have seen magnet used. | 19:02 |
| aptrwlf | Anyone know Thunar? Is it possible to 'merge' folders and then 'skip' copying all existing copies ? | 19:02 |
| matto_D | Thanks Beldar, I've been trying to make Bumblebee work on Ubuntu but I can't seem to do it. I've followed countless guides but I've only managed to make it work on Fedora. I'm trying to recreate the steps | 19:02 |
| aptrwlf | hermacet: I would reinstall FF after purging it, 26 has worked fine for me | 19:02 |
| Beldar | matto_D, THat fedora command if I remember is a update and install together is all. | 19:03 |
| hermacet | sudo apt-get autoremove firefox --purge .... right? | 19:03 |
| phet | zykotick9: there is no xorg.conf inside /etc/x11 | 19:03 |
| aptrwlf | i think sudo apt-get purge works | 19:03 |
| zykotick9 | phet: that's good! sorry i don't have any suggestions, best of luck. | 19:04 |
| aptrwlf | Thunar anyone? | 19:04 |
| phet | oh | 19:04 |
| Xuisce | Hi all | 19:04 |
| matto_D | Doesn't hurt to try with both of those command. Thanks Beldar :D | 19:04 |
| aptrwlf | Can Thunar merge folders and skip overwriting files? By default it does not seem to support it. Is that correct? | 19:04 |

| madarc | Somelauw, i would suggest 4M, i have not noted a performance increase with using larger sizes | 19:27 |
| madarc | Somelauw, thing to note, if you use an insane blocksize of 100MB for a 4MB file, the file will take up 100MB of space | 19:28 |
| Somelauw | i got it running | 19:28 |

| e-head | hey... anyone here run xmbc for a htpc? | 19:29 |
| madarc | e-head, yes | 19:29 |
| e-head | cool... can you pretty much play any video/audio codec? | 19:29 |
| e-head | how about wmv files? | 19:29 |
| madarc | e-head, you have to install the codecs but yeah | 19:29 |
| e-head | I use linux but I don't tend to use it for video playback... so I'm not sure what the state is of linux support for codecs. | 19:30 |
| e-head | cool | 19:30 |
| e-head | are there any codec packs you can just apt-get ? | 19:30 |
| Somelauw | madarc: no worry, i chose 4MB. | 19:30 |
| madarc | i'll get you an apt get list | 19:30 |

| jhutchins | e-head: I don't know the details, I think they've reverse engineered them so the proprietary code isn't needed any more. | 19:32 |
| madarc | jhattara, and xbmc does not use mplayer or vlc | 19:32 |
| e-head | oh nice | 19:32 |
| madarc | i think | 19:32 |
| e-head | madarc: I don't think it does either. | 19:32 |

| jhutchins | I just know that generally we don't need codecs any more, but they're still available if a program does. | 19:33 |
| kayano_m | how about dvd playback? | 19:33 |
| e-head | jhutchins: could be the default ubuntu install just comes with most of them already. | 19:34 |

| lmat | I'm having a bit of trouble with my window manager (unity, lightdm, compiz, ubuntu 12.04). When I plug in a monitor, the only way to get the computer to use that monitor is to service lightdm restart | 19:34 |
| e-head | I wonder where they are kept? Are they simply lib files? | 19:34 |
| lmat | That's really unfortunate, and I'm hoping I can find some way around it. Any ideas ? | 19:34 |
| === Guest84383 is now known as jacky | ||
| lmat | When I remove a monitor, the system seems to figure out what to do, and makes the virtual desktop space smaller (in other words, the mouse doesn't go way off the screen onto the "other monitor" which is now removed). | 19:36 |

| Somelauw | i started gparted and it complains that the "GPT table" of /dev/sdc is missing (which is probably my usb drive) | 19:37 |

| Somelauw | on the laptop on which i'm using irc, it's sdb | 19:39 |

| === Upene is now known as Cr0w84r | ||
| dhenden | with duplicity I have excluded /mnt before, but guessing that because its using /dev/sda as the target it won't touch the /mnt dir? | 19:43 |
| lvleph | dhenden, is it a hardware raid? | 19:43 |
| daftykins | you realise 'dd' reads every bit and so yes, the resulting image will be the entire drive size? | 19:43 |
| dhenden | yucky software raid | 19:43 |
| _1_walter | what sup here?? | 19:43 |
| Somelauw | Does an SSD cache work out of the box or should I specifically configure ubuntu to use the SSD drive as a cache? | 19:43 |
| lvleph | and it is mounted as sda? hmmm anyway listen to daftykins | 19:43 |
| dhenden | I have piped it to gzip aswell | 19:44 |
| _1_walter | am new here pls | 19:44 |

| matto_d | Hey guys, I know this is a Ubuntu but can someone can share a success story on making Nvidia Optimus work. I'm trying to make it work on elementaryOS (after all it is Ubuntu based) and it's community wasn’t much of help :/ | 19:46 |
| daftykins | no support in here for any distro even if it's based on ubuntu i'm afraid | 19:47 |
| daftykins | optimus still seems to be a mess, 14.04 should have better support so wait for that | 19:47 |
| dhenden | just conflicting info online, that the gzip will compress all the empty space | 19:47 |
| daftykins | you didn't mention gzipping it afterward | 19:48 |
| daftykins | why are you wanting to backup in such a strange way? | 19:48 |
| kayano_m | matto_d: it's no big deal if the luck is by your side | 19:49 |
| dhenden | how do you mean strange? just used dd if=/dev/sda | gzip -C > /mnt/backup/sda.img.gz | 19:50 |
| dhenden | was then going to backup the ptable with sfdisk | 19:50 |
| matto_d | kayano_m, it's a little irritating to have a graphic card on your laptop and not be able to use it. I've been trying to fix this with bumblebee but all I get are freezes :D. But hey I'm persistent :D | 19:51 |

| gimmic | linux question for you guys | 19:53 |
| gimmic | say I have a folder full of very similar (txt) files | 19:53 |
| gimmic | I want to diff between all of them | 19:53 |
| gimmic | ideas? | 19:53 |
| gimmic | it isn't folders, just one folder full of nearly identical files | 19:53 |
| sep332_ | pick one of them, diff each of the rest against it? | 19:53 |
| gimmic | each file probably has 1 line different, but I want to see a diff comparison for one that is wildly different | 19:53 |
| === sep332_ is now known as sep332 | ||
| matto_d | the wiki, countless guides, I've tried to recreate the steps for Fedora (the only and single time that I've succeeded with Optimus), still nothing, nada, zilch :D | 19:53 |
| gimmic | well, each file has a unique bit in it | 19:54 |
| gimmic | I suppose to look for the wildly different ones, that would work | 19:54 |
| Somelauw | Does an SSD cache work out of the box or should I specifically configure ubuntu to use the SSD drive as a cache? | 19:54 |
| kayano_m | matto_d: have a look at this page: https://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee | 19:54 |
| matto_d | thanks, kayano_m, will do that now | 19:55 |
| _TJ_ | Somelauw: You'll need to install/configure bcache | 19:55 |
| _TJ_ | Somelauw: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/252140/how-do-i-install-and-use-flashcache-bcache-to-cache-hdd-to-ssd | 19:55 |
| Somelauw | _TJ_: ok, is bcache compatible with windows multi-boot etc | 19:55 |
| kayano_m | matto_d: it's probably best you check out on which debian os your distro is based on | 19:56 |
| zykotick9 | kayano_m: you probably shouldn't be offering support for non-ubuntu here. take it to PM if you wish | 19:57 |

| sep332 | 3.11 is the latest on saucy, right? | 20:14 |
| Seveas | sep332: yeah | 20:14 |
| Seveas | sep332: I'd start with the Ubuntu kernel sources and transplanting btrfs from mainline on top | 20:15 |
| sep332 | hm, that's an idea | 20:15 |
| Seveas | (never done that though) | 20:15 |
| TJ- | sep332: Why not just use an Ubuntu mainline build? | 20:15 |
| TJ- | !mainline | sep332 | 20:16 |

| Seveas | sep332: or grab a kernel source pacakge from trusty and rebuild on saucy, may work too | 20:16 |

| lmat | Bashing-om: ahh, okay | 21:21 |
| lmat | hewhomust: eek | 21:21 |
| felixruina | lmat: If I'm not mistaken, 12.04 is an LTS release? If that is the case, and you can wait a few months, you can definitely upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 | 21:21 |
| Flunder | My girlfriend knocked over one of my pcs cleaning yesterday, and my hard drive crashed. I was able to run a live ubuntu 12.10 64bit via flash drive, the hard drive is in the machine and I've run some of the basic fdisk commands and does see it. How I need help recovering the files please. | 21:21 |
| lmat | felixruina: right. | 21:21 |
| lmat | okay, thanks! | 21:21 |
| felixruina | lmat: However, you probably would have to do a couple of upgrades to go from 12.04 to 13.10, I believe | 21:22 |
| felixruina | lmat: u bet :) | 21:22 |
| Bashing-om | lmat: np. but a clean install is always a better course of action. | 21:22 |
| ikonia | Flunder: why are you running "fdisk" commands ? | 21:22 |
| Flunder | Well I was just using basic ones to see if the drive was there. I think they were fdisk commands. Anyways. | 21:22 |

| michagogo|cloud | So... I've got a 12.04 install I haven't used in a while, on an external hard drive | 21:22 |
| ikonia | Flunder: it's pretty important what commands you used as that can dictate the state of the disks | 21:23 |
| michagogo|cloud | I just booted it up and logged on, and I see the couple icons on the desktop, and the background | 21:23 |
| michagogo|cloud | But there's no other interface | 21:23 |
| michagogo|cloud | Anyone have any idea what might be going on? | 21:24 |
| michagogo|cloud | (The mouse cursor is also there, complete with the highlight when I hit ctrl) | 21:24 |
| Flunder | It was just a basic command to show the status of the connected medias. | 21:25 |

| viniz | hola | 21:52 |
| rannonga | well try just using the terminal again | 21:52 |
| rannonga | ctr alt t | 21:52 |
| compdoc | <Ctrl><Alt><F2> will switch you to the second text console | 21:53 |
| michagogo|cloud | When I tried to do the first step from that link, sudo apt-get install dconf-tools, it told me "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. " | 21:53 |
| rannonga | run that | 21:53 |
| michagogo|cloud | Okay | 21:53 |
| lmat | Sorry, had to step out for a bit, if anyone has any ideas about my VNC problem, I would greatly appreciate some words :) | 21:53 |
| Seveas | michagogo|cloud: and once you've done that, run this too: sudo apt-get -f install | 21:54 |
| michagogo|cloud | It failed | 21:54 |
| michagogo|cloud | What information from the terminal do you need? | 21:55 |
| michagogo|cloud | last few lines are: Setting up libisc83 (1:9.8.1.dfsg.P1-4ubuntu0.8) ... \n dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting: \n unable to flush updated status of `libisc83': Read-only file system | 21:55 |
| michagogo|cloud | (linebreaks converted to \n) | 21:55 |
| Seveas | michagogo|cloud: well that explains, your filesystem is probably hosed and marked as readonly. Back up and buy a new harddisk. | 21:56 |
| michagogo|cloud | Gah | 21:56 |
| michagogo|cloud | Is there any chance it's just something wrong with the system or installation or something that could be recovered somehow? | 21:57 |
| michagogo|cloud | Also, I just remembered that there's an install of Kali on another partition of the HD or something like that | 21:58 |
| Seveas | michagogo|cloud: well, you can try that, but back up first. Then reboot, fsck should kick in automatically. | 21:58 |
| michagogo|cloud | Might that have messed up the Ubuntu install? | 21:58 |
| === andrea is now known as Guest28911 | ||
| michagogo|cloud | Seveas: What do you mean it should kick in automatically? It didn't before | 21:58 |
| michagogo|cloud | And I just booted | 21:58 |
| Seveas | then it detected the fault after boot, but now it's detected fsck should kick in | 21:59 |
| michagogo|cloud | How do I reboot from the terminal? | 21:59 |

| ahoneybun | michagogo|cloud, what kind of tool are you looking for? | 22:14 |
| TJ- | michagogo|cloud: Start with "smartmontools" and "smartctl -a /dev/sdX". If that reports the drive health is OK, then look at the current "/var/log/kern.log" for indications of disk I/O errors. | 22:14 |

| TJ- | Seveas: Ahhh, yes, I forgot to replace the regexp marker | 22:24 |
| Evilmax | sed | 22:25 |
| TJ- | Evilmax: If you are embedding an environment variable you must use double-quotes to allow shell expansion of that variable: sed -i "|$dates1|d" /tmp/myfile | 22:25 |
| Evilmax | sed -i -e with your suggestions | 22:25 |
| Evilmax | and sed -i with TJ suggestion | 22:25 |

| michagogo|cloud | SMART seems to think the disk is fine | 22:28 |
| Evilmax | i used sed sometimes...but now it seems impossible | 22:28 |
| jhutchins | michagogo|cloud: smart is principally good if you run the deaemon and watch the logs for alerts. | 22:29 |
| jhutchins | michagogo|cloud: That, or if you test it periodically and compare the tests. | 22:29 |
| jhutchins | michagogo|cloud: Not so good for the one-shot test. | 22:29 |
| michagogo|cloud | Oh :-/ | 22:29 |
| Seveas | Evilmax: ok, here's a monstrosity for you: sed -i -e "/\<$(echo $dates1 | sed -e 's/\//\\\//g')\>/d" /tmp/myfile | 22:29 |
| jhutchins | michagogo|cloud: /tmp should be tempfs anyway, which suggests deeper problems. | 22:30 |
| Seveas | it uses another sed to escape the /'es in $dates1 | 22:30 |
| Seveas | bash parameter expansion also failed to do that | 22:30 |
| jhutchins | michagogo|cloud: Probably need to boot to Kali and fsck the Ubuntu partition(s). | 22:30 |
| Evilmax | i try Seveas | 22:31 |
| Seveas | michagogo|cloud: SMART saying it's fine doesn't mean anything unless you've written to each and every byte on the disk, e.g. with DBAN (warning: nukes all data on the disk) | 22:31 |
| jhutchins | RPM has a real nice feature where you can md5sum the files for all installed packages and tell if any are messed up. | 22:31 |
| michagogo|cloud | Heh, I know what DBAN is :p | 22:32 |
| Evilmax | hey Seveas | 22:32 |
| Evilmax | very good :) | 22:32 |
| Evilmax | now it works:) | 22:32 |
| jhutchins | Supposedly debsums that, but I think you have to install it on a known good system first. | 22:32 |
| user0 | join /vim | 22:32 |
| Evilmax | thank you TJ too | 22:32 |
| Evilmax | i am not so able like you, boys | 22:32 |
| Seveas | jhutchins: yeah, that's one of the few things where rpm is better | 22:32 |
| michagogo|cloud | `fsck /dev/sdb3` from Kali found and fixed problems | 22:32 |
| jhutchins | michagogo|cloud: Which means the filesystem is good now, but the files on it may not be. | 22:33 |
| michagogo|cloud | Is there some kind of "repair installation" thing for Ubuntu the way there is for Windows? | 22:34 |
| Seveas | jhutchins: I think the closest we can get in .deb land is apt-get install --reinstall ALL THE PACKAGES | 22:34 |

| TJ- | Evilmax: Seveas: My memory is rusty! This is the *proper* way to do it: sed -i "\|$dates2|d" /tmp/myfile --- to replace the 'range' delimiter you have to escape the first delimiter as in here "\|" to use the "|" (vertical-bar) instead of "/" | 22:39 |

| ahoneybun | might end up with a broken system | 22:48 |
| DynV | I don'T mind breaking ubuntu | 22:48 |
| Seveas | thirdeyeforsale: close enough, but there's also #xubuntu if you can't find an answer here | 22:48 |
| ahoneybun | thirdeyeforsale, I think there is a #xubuntu help chat | 22:48 |
| thirdeyeforsale | thanks <3 | 22:48 |

| ubottu | Flunder: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 22:49 |
| DynV | ahoneybun: I want ubuntu to take as little spae as possible, I thought it using what was instaleld with debian would be a good idea | 22:49 |
| jhutchins | DynV: Yes, you can do that. The gparted superdisk might be a useful way to re-arrange the partitions, but since you need to back up the data on them before you mess with them ("Oops!"), it's just as easy to backup-edit size-restore. | 22:49 |
| alex4 | \set irc.server.freenode.username "Jaeger" | 22:49 |
| jhutchins | DynV: Faster too. | 22:49 |
| Flunder | I'm BAD! | 22:49 |
| DynV | jhutchins: I did not even installe drivers on windows yet, especially for that reason | 22:50 |
| DynV | how would I go about this? | 22:51 |
| kingfisher64 | not hardwired ahoneybun. I'm wanting to add it to the wireless network | 22:51 |
| DynV | if I can manage to only take 10Gb off windows, it would be nice | 22:51 |
| DynV | and not take anything from debian | 22:51 |
| ahoneybun | kingfisher64, well to make that a wireless printer you would either plug it into a router if it supports it or make a print server | 22:52 |
| ahoneybun | from my understanding | 22:52 |
| DynV | 320Gb HDD, 100Gb for debian | 22:52 |
| ahoneybun | I did the 2nd option | 22:52 |
| sandral | hundred gigs for debian why? can't you reduced that to like 10, and make a 90 shared between windows and debian for your data? | 22:53 |
| kingfisher64 | right so login to the router and setup a print server ahoneybun? | 22:53 |

| ahoneybun | kingfisher64, so it has a usb port? | 22:53 |
| DynV | jhutchins: ^ | 22:54 |
| str0ke | what's the best TLP or Laptop-mode-tools ? | 22:56 |
| DynV | sandral: because debian wasn'T based on windows | 22:56 |
| DynV | and can'T debian only read a fat32 partition, not ntfs | 22:57 |
| kingfisher64 | nope ahoneybun. Effectively i'm going to have to hardwire this aren't I if there's no print server functionality on the router | 22:58 |
| kingfisher64 | at least it's working when plugged in. That's good enough for now. | 22:58 |
| kingfisher64 | ahoneybun++ | 22:59 |
| ahoneybun | ? | 22:59 |
| sandral | DynV: debian can read ntfs, unless there is some philosophical reason that you can't use the ntfs drivers for it? | 22:59 |
| DynV | nop | 22:59 |
| ahoneybun | for the print server I find webmin to be a nice tool | 23:00 |
| DynV | anyway I needed 10 Gb just for the swap | 23:00 |
| ahoneybun | DynV, thats a lot for swa | 23:00 |
| ahoneybun | p | 23:00 |
| kingfisher64 | many thanks for your advice it is much appreciated. ++ normally represents an increment in reputation on that channel. Maybe it's too much drupal channeling for me! | 23:00 |

| str0ke | what's the best TLP or Laptop-mode-tools ? | 23:01 |
| sandral | DynV: you're weclome to allocate your disk however you want, but debian will run just fine in 10 Gb or so (not counting swap, assuming you need swap) so i'd recommend you share your data between your different OS, and reduced the size of the OS partitions | 23:01 |
| DynV | that'S what the guided partitioner assigned as I though swap need to be at least the size of ram | 23:01 |
| sanchez | give windows 0mb of space | 23:01 |
| sanchez | it's safer that way | 23:02 |
| sandral | DynV: swap is up to you; you don't actually *need* swap though and can turn off swapping in linux entirely if you wish. However most systems are configured with a swap just in case they run out of memory | 23:03 |

| DynV | how much will it take to have a desktop environment, stream youtube, watch videos (ie: mp4), run games, and other such stuff? | 23:06 |
| DynV | I thought I'd need at least 50Gb, excluding swap | 23:07 |
| DynV | also can swap be share amongst the different linux on a system? I assume it can | 23:07 |
| ClumsyFairyQueen | if im using a ubuntu vm as a router, how can I enable internet access from the LAN with iptables? | 23:08 |
| k1l | DynV: it can. but you cant suspend and change to the other OS then | 23:08 |
| ClumsyFairyQueen | I already have DHCP setup to point at the router - just need some help with the DHCP rules | 23:08 |
| Rory | ClumsyFairyQueen: Might this page be helpful? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Router | 23:08 |
| DynV | k1l: not a problem :) | 23:09 |
| sandral | DynV: is this a steamos question? | 23:10 |
| sandral | DynV: i've used gnome2 for desktop, with youtube etc, on a machine with 1 Gb of RAM. I'd recommend 2 Gb though. As for games, this depends: which games? | 23:10 |
| ClumsyFairyQueen | Rory, seems to be what im looking for, ill go test it out | 23:10 |
| str0ke | what's the best TLP or Laptop-mode-tools ? | 23:11 |
| Rory | ClumsyFairyQueen: It's a very long page I know; I had a quick skim through but couldn't see exactly what you need. Maybe invest the 15 minutes to read it from start to finish for a good overview | 23:12 |
| DynV | GPL games, I've yet to choose but I've seen a lot of nice one, even a quake 3 remake, my system go *Gb of ram | 23:13 |
| DynV | by steamos, I assume you mean steam, then it'S no, I used only medias (ie: DVD) until now | 23:14 |
| ikonia | steamOS is a totally different thing to ubuntu | 23:15 |
| ikonia | I think you need to clarify what you are talking about | 23:15 |
| DynV | DVD games | 23:15 |
| DynV | never used steam or the like | 23:15 |
| DynV | or regular downloaded games | 23:16 |
| ikonia | DynV: do you actually have something relevant to ubuntu to actually talk about ? or am I missing the point of what you are saying | 23:16 |

| str0ke | what's the best TLP or Laptop-mode-tools ? | 23:16 |
| ikonia | DynV: just ask your question, I'm not interested in the link | 23:16 |
| sandral | DynV: 8Gb RAM is fine for current generation games | 23:17 |
| ikonia | str0ke: laptop mode tools ? | 23:17 |
| sandral | DynV: why both debian and ubuntu? | 23:17 |
| DynV | ikonia: I'l copy & paste it but I think some people might not like that | 23:17 |
| ikonia | DynV: just summerise | 23:17 |
| DynV | 320Gb HDD | 23:18 |
| DynV | 100Gb for debian | 23:18 |
| DynV | rest for windws | 23:18 |
| ikonia | ok, so where does ubuntu come ? | 23:18 |
| DynV | I want to shave up to 10Gb to put windows | 23:18 |
| DynV | ubuntu sorry | 23:18 |
| DynV | it owuld basically need to use debian swap and packages | 23:19 |
| ikonia | DynV: you're telling lies - as you are asking in ##linux about debian | 23:19 |
| str0ke | ikonia: why ? | 23:19 |
| ikonia | DynV: str0ke why what ? | 23:19 |
| ikonia | oops, | 23:19 |
| ikonia | str0ke: why what | 23:19 |
| sandral | DynV: Debian fits in 10 Gb, really. 18 with swap. Same for Ubuntu and they can share the swap. | 23:20 |
| mib_mib | hi all - if i install mysql, and it runs on port 3306 on my server - by default is this port open to outsiders outside of the server? or redis on port 9306 - same thing - do i have to specify this somehow in my firewall? | 23:20 |
| sandral | DynV: just put your movies on the windows drive, both debian and ubuntu can read/write it | 23:20 |
| DynV | sandral: and for the games and desktop environment and media playing? | 23:20 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: it's open to what you allow it to be open to | 23:20 |
| DynV | I'd want to download the GPL games using linux | 23:21 |
| sandral | DynV: including the desktop yes. Your apps (games) will need more space, true, but you don' have to install those on the linux partitions | 23:21 |
| DynV | I need space for that | 23:21 |
| mib_mib | ikonia: if i'm using UFW, default deny, and ufw show status doesnt show the ports being allowed or denied, does this mean its blocked? | 23:21 |
| DynV | I want to run linux games on linux | 23:21 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: blocked | 23:21 |
| ikonia | DynV: what is your actual question | 23:21 |
| ikonia | DynV: you appear to just be saying random words with "game" in between them | 23:22 |
| sandral | DynV: Where you install the game doesnt matter so long as the OS can read the drive. which linux can, if the drive is NTFS or something. | 23:22 |
| mib_mib | ikonia: so - how does the loopback interface work, i.e. how can i still connect to this port if i'm on the server locally? | 23:22 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: thats a non-existant interface, so never leaves the server | 23:22 |
| mib_mib | i guess i dont understand the difference between loopback vs not | 23:22 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: one is physical the other is not | 23:22 |
| DynV | sandral: well you gave me a lot to consider | 23:22 |
| mib_mib | ikonia: right - but how does the firewall differentiate | 23:23 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: it doesn't | 23:23 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: it won't get touched by the firewall | 23:23 |
| sandral | DynV: i would ocnsider a switch to ubuntu if you are very new to linux: debian is hard to configure | 23:23 |
| ikonia | debian is not hard to configure | 23:23 |
| mib_mib | ikonia: yes, thats what i'm trying tou nderstand, i thought the firewall just blocks a port? | 23:23 |
| ikonia | ubuntu is based on debian so it's the same configuration options | 23:23 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: it can do what you tell it to do, but default it won't have an impact on loopback | 23:24 |
| sandral | ikonia: hard is a relative term, it's hard for a new user. and knowing both I can tell you, no they are NOT the same. for example try to configure samba server on debian vs ubuntu | 23:24 |
| ikonia | sandral: it's exactly the same | 23:24 |
| ikonia | sandral: same config files, same location | 23:24 |
| mib_mib | ikonia: i guess i dont really understand the concept of loopback | 23:24 |
| ikonia | mib_mib: it appears not | 23:24 |
| sandral | ikonia: no it isn't debian uses different security settings, which need to be set differenylu, and their docs are poor | 23:24 |
| mib_mib | ikonia: so how does that work | 23:24 |
| ikonia | sandral: different security settings, what are you talking about | 23:24 |
| ikonia | sandral: it's the same | 23:25 |
| sandral | ikonia: no it isn't, at least not with the current debian | 23:25 |

| mib_mib | ikonia: ok | 23:25 |
| sandral | ikonia: on ubutnu if you install samba, create a share in the smb conf file, it'll work out of the box. debian needs specific whitelisting and i mess with account permissions | 23:26 |
| ikonia | sandral: no it doesn't | 23:26 |

| gordonjcp | leadnpotatoes: if you mean "actually usable" then no | 23:38 |
| leadnpotatoes | Yeah that's what I mean | 23:38 |
| leadnpotatoes | t | 23:38 |
| sandral | leadnpotatoes: i am not having trouble with it, but I can't guarantee that you won't | 23:38 |
| gordonjcp | you might get away with it if you have a US keyboard layout and don't want to do anything too off-the-wall like use graphical apps like web browsers | 23:39 |
| leadnpotatoes | I need to do winter housekeeping | 23:39 |
| sandral | i've not had a problem with UK keyboard and the web, again I can't guarantee you wont | 23:39 |
| leadnpotatoes | so 13.04 needs to be refreshed | 23:39 |
| gordonjcp | 13.10 is still alpha-quality at best, and has a crippling bug that the devs refuse to fix that render it unusable | 23:39 |
| sandral | which bug btw? | 23:39 |
| gordonjcp | you cannot use it with a non-US keyboard layout | 23:39 |
| sandral | i am now | 23:39 |
| leadnpotatoes | Shame, I guess FTL will have problems too 'eh? | 23:39 |
| gordonjcp | if you set it to anything else - even if you remove the US keyboard layout - it will randomly switch back to a US layout | 23:40 |
| leadnpotatoes | lol | 23:40 |
| gordonjcp | Intel graphics are no longer supported | 23:40 |
| sandral | it doesnt for me, is there a link to the bug report? | 23:40 |

| gordonjcp | the Intel graphics one is particularly bad | 23:41 |
| sandral | i can go look, what search key you want me to enter? | 23:41 |
| gordonjcp | sandral: search for stuff to do with 13.10 switching keyboard layouts by itself | 23:42 |
| gordonjcp | also glyph corruption with intel graphics | 23:42 |
| gordonjcp | it starts off as one letter out of the alphabet getting scrambled | 23:42 |
| gordonjcp | over time, more and more get scrambled until the whole screen is just random glyphs | 23:42 |
| leadnpotatoes | Is this because of whatever ubuntu has been doing with the UI? | 23:43 |
| leadnpotatoes | the intel problems | 23:43 |
| sandral | leadnpotatoes: not everyone is having that bug, so take it with a pinch of salt. there's a lot of chrubuntus around, and they're all intel | 23:44 |
