| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: arghh, well, did you stop the install ? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Flat4ForLife | Yes. I'm editing the blacklist files real quick cause they have nouveau in them | 00:00 |
| digs | Jabo - I thought I was running 12.. that was the other instance. This one is 13.04 and the motd is telling me that 13.10 is available. | 00:01 |
| digs | I just updated all packages | 00:01 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: yep, that is what it will take, or reinstall nouveau and let the system do it, whatever you feel comfortable with | 00:01 |
| Flat4ForLife | How can I reinstall nouveau? | 00:02 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-nouveau | 00:02 |
| Flat4ForLife | Need Internet haha | 00:03 |
| EnderLance | Hi guys, I need help setting up my Ubuntu Server... | 00:03 |
| EnderLance | I installed properly (I hope) but the wlan0 interface that I used during the installation disappeared and I don't have any networking interface! | 00:04 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: sorry, didn't think straight aka goofed up .. so manual edits i suppose | 00:04 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: always roadblocks ahead in situations like this, nice to see you're still smiling heh | 00:05 |
| EnderLance | Can anybody help me? | 00:05 |
| digs | Is there any good reason to update to 13.10 or is keeeping the packages up to date enough? | 00:06 |
| ikonia | digs: what are you currently running ? | 00:06 |
| digs | 13.04 | 00:06 |
| ikonia | digs: any problems with it ? | 00:06 |
| digs | Nope. | 00:06 |
| ikonia | digs: ok, hang tight then, keep it up to date and enjoy | 00:06 |
| digs | Cool, thank you for the response. | 00:07 |
| EnderLance | Guys, I really need help... | 00:07 |
| Jabo | EnderLance, don't ask if you can get help. Just ask your question. | 00:07 |
| Jabo | IRC etiquette man. | 00:08 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: actually, if you purged nvidia you shouldn't have to do much, just check /etc/modprobe | 00:08 |
| EnderLance | Alright then, I installed Ubuntu Server 13.10 and the wlan0 network interface was working during the installation but not after... | 00:08 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: why are you using ubuntu server with wireless cards ? | 00:08 |
| ikonia | surly the desktop would be a better option | 00:08 |
| EnderLance | It's a laptop with a broken screen I have no other use for it... | 00:08 |
| * Jabo agrees with ikonia | 00:08 | |
| ikonia | the desktop install will still be a better target as it will have the network-manager setup which can manage wireless connections | 00:09 |
| Jabo | you don't need the server edition | 00:09 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: correction: check /etc/modprobe.d and take out anything that has filenames with nvidia in it | 00:09 |
| Flat4ForLife | No luck | 00:09 |
| Flat4ForLife | OK will do | 00:09 |
| digs | How do I change the command line to be able to pull up history of a partial match? For example, say you do a vi command then 5 cd commands and then you want to go back to the vi command. I don't want to up arrow 6 times, I just want to type vi then up arrow and have it get the command. | 00:09 |
| ikonia | set -o vi | 00:09 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: it makes ense that you can't find anything anymore, so you can try a reboor now | 00:10 |
| digs | no.. for any command. | 00:10 |
| glitsj16 | *reboot | 00:10 |
| ikonia | yes, set -o vi | 00:10 |
| EnderLance | I had the desktop edition.... Isn't the server edition supposed to be faster? I mean, less programs and stuff? | 00:10 |
| digs | Say it was a service command I did like 20 commands ago... I want to type service up arrow and have it be there. Still the same command ikonia ? | 00:10 |
| ikonia | yes, set -o vi | 00:10 |
| digs | hah. okay. thanks. | 00:10 |
| EnderLance | ... | 00:12 |
| digs | ikonia, no... I am talking about altering .bashrc | 00:12 |
| EnderLance | So you guys just don't know how to help me? | 00:12 |
| Flat4ForLife | OK I got it running, now half my screen is jacked up and the bottom half is fine | 00:12 |
| Flat4ForLife | I logged in though | 00:12 |
| ikonia | set -o vi in bashrc | 00:13 |
| digs | ohhhhhhh | 00:13 |
| Jabo | yes we do EnderLance, you don't need the server edition. install the desktop edition. | 00:13 |
| ikonia | or on the command line | 00:13 |
| ikonia | it really doesn't matter | 00:13 |
| daftykins | EnderLance: honestly a server OS does not belong on wifi | 00:13 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: find out what kenrel module your wireless card needs, check if it's present, check if it's being loaded, | 00:13 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: there you go, that is the first stage of debugging | 00:13 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: lol, nice you made it back, at least you can .. sudo apt-get install pastebinit .. | 00:14 |
| EnderLance | fine, I'll just install desktop and deal with a Octal-Core 2.4 GHz CPU 8GB RAM computer running really slow... | 00:15 |
| EnderLance | thanks anyways. | 00:15 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: why would it run slow ? | 00:15 |
| Flat4ForLife | Haha OK once I get it connected | 00:15 |
| willwh | EnderLance: that's just silly | 00:15 |
| EnderLance | Not exactly sure why... | 00:15 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: you can't be serious thinking a machine with 8gb of ram and 4 cores will run "slow" | 00:15 |
| EnderLance | But it did | 00:15 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: visually slow, or resource slow | 00:15 |
| EnderLance | I don't use the visuals, it was the actual processes | 00:16 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: can you give me an example of a process running slow please. | 00:16 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: when you have that we'll check if you got the kernel headers installed: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) | pastebinit | 00:16 |
| EnderLance | Bukkit 1.7.2 (Minecraft server) | 00:16 |
| EnderLance | 6GB ram for the server | 00:16 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: that's nothing to do with desktop/server | 00:17 |
| EnderLance | hmm | 00:17 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: if a java app takes 6gb of ram, it will take 6gb of ram on a server/desktop install the same | 00:17 |
| EnderLance | ... | 00:17 |
| EnderLance | didn't think of that... | 00:17 |
| ikonia | EnderLance: thats a big java thread, your heap size was probably set wrong | 00:17 |
| ikonia | (at a blind guess) | 00:17 |
| EnderLance | k... I'll stick to desktop then and look into jre a bit more. | 00:18 |
| EnderLance | thanks ikonia! | 00:19 |

| somsip | Tjd797_: just be careful and make sure you are happy with the approach you choose. Maybe safely deleted the oldest kernel to make sure you understand the process. | 01:57 |
| glitsj16 | dupingping: usually when a window darkens it has become unresponsive .. if it was a terminal app/script that's different | 01:57 |
| === FuuqUmist is now known as FuuqUmiist | ||
| dupingping | ah | 01:57 |
| dupingping | it is not terminal app/script, it is a window. | 01:58 |
| dupingping | only way is rewrite my code? | 01:59 |
| === gerald is now known as Guest65758 | ||
| glitsj16 | dupingping: if you don't see movement in the window, i guess that's the bottomline yes | 01:59 |
| somsip | dupingping: what is the application that is running? | 01:59 |
| somsip | glitsj16: he didn't come back | 01:59 |
| glitsj16 | dupingping: you could add a small animation, so you'd be able to check visually | 01:59 |
| dupingping | the application was wrote me | 02:00 |
| glitsj16 | somsip: he's at work so that makes sense .. thank you for keeping an eye open | 02:00 |
| somsip | dupingping: then you need to debug it. That's not something we can help you with here | 02:00 |
| somsip | glitsj16: np | 02:00 |
| dupingping | glitsj16: somsip: thank you! | 02:01 |

| CookiesRgooD | Guys. IDK what to do anymore. Done a ton of research already. Running Acer C710-2615 chromebook. Removed chromeos and put xubuntu 12.04.3. My problem is that my trackpad does not work. It does in Saucy salamander 13. Thoughts on how to get the trackpad working on 12? | 02:04 |
| somsip | dupingping: what sort of device? | 02:06 |
| therufus | exit | 02:06 |
| somsip | CookiesRgooD: maybe there is kernel/driver support in 13.10 that is not in 12.04. You'd need to find where/when this was introduced and see if there are patches that can be made to 12.04. Why can't you use 13.10? | 02:07 |
| dupingping | somsip: about CPU | 02:11 |
| somsip | dupingping: that is supported by the kernel. So you would need to look elsehwere for that information, based on the current kernel in use in 12.04 | 02:12 |

| Flat4ForLife | glitsj16: you around? | 02:19 |
| Valduare | gah I give up trying to get ubuntu on my macbook pro 7.1 | 02:20 |
| Flat4ForLife | It took me forever valduare, but I got it. What problem are you running into? I'm on an older Macbook pro | 02:20 |
| prpl | If I install ubuntu to a prepared partition on a hdd that has linux mint and winxp, will the new grub menu include all three oses ? thanks | 02:21 |
| Valduare | I'm trying to boot the mac version iso | 02:21 |
| Valduare | but won't show up | 02:21 |
| Valduare | Flat4ForLife: I have rEFInd installed | 02:21 |
| Flat4ForLife | What did you use to create the bootable mrdia | 02:22 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: right here :) | 02:22 |
| Flat4ForLife | Woo! I was worried you'd gone to bed haha | 02:22 |
| rww | prpl: yep, assuming everything goes well | 02:22 |
| Flat4ForLife | OK so it installed, no errors it seems | 02:23 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: haha, it's tempting, but not yet, i didn't want to let you dangle, especially if you're close (if things run normal) | 02:23 |
| Flat4ForLife | Sorry it took so long, had to actually work for a bit haha | 02:23 |
| prpl | I'll see what happens | 02:23 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: great, quick check: sudo dkms status | 02:23 |
| Valduare | Flat4ForLife: I used unetbootin with a regular ubuntu 64 iso yesterday and it boots | 02:23 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: has to be done, no problem | 02:23 |
| Valduare | but the mac version - the usb does not show up | 02:23 |
| Flat4ForLife | Valduare: Don't use the Mac version then, it's not required | 02:24 |

| Valduare | Flat4ForLife: I got a regular install up and going but if I try the proprietary nvidia drivers its black screen | 02:25 |
| Valduare | because the nvidia drivers do not support efi boot | 02:25 |

| rww | VoidMainFunction: no advertising here, thanks. | 02:25 |
| Flat4ForLife | That's where I'm at man, working on it as we speak | 02:25 |
| Valduare | so the mac version is suppose to legacy bios | 02:25 |
| Flat4ForLife | Glitsj16: could not locate dkms. Conf file, doesn't exist | 02:26 |
| glitsj16 | Valduare: nvidia drivers should work regardless, black screen could mean several things ofcourse, but should be fixable | 02:26 |
| Valduare | glitsj16: no its because of efi - its stated that they do not support efi boot | 02:27 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: odd, should be a dependency of nvidia, let's do .. sudo apt-get install dkms | 02:27 |
| Flat4ForLife | Valduare: that's not with the Mac version, it's the drivers. They are a pain in the ass | 02:27 |
| Flat4ForLife | You boot fine with the nouveau drivers right? | 02:28 |
| Valduare | ya | 02:28 |
| Valduare | I have a current efi booting ubuntu install atm | 02:28 |
| Flat4ForLife | Said it was installed already glits, but I reinstalled it | 02:28 |
| Valduare | but nouveau crashes after min or so | 02:28 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: ok, let me do a quick check on the dkms conf here | 02:28 |
| Flat4ForLife | So then it works valduare, the drivers are just picky. I still haven't gotten mine to work either | 02:29 |
| Jordan_U | Valduare: The +mac iso is identical to the non +mac iso, except that the +mac iso has the EFI bootloader *removed* from its image. You should *not* use the +mac iso as a base for making a USB drive that will boot on a Mac, you should use the standard 64 bit iso instead. | 02:29 |
| Valduare | I read that it sets up the bios mode - whatever they called it :P | 02:29 |
| Valduare | my brain is getting fried lol | 02:29 |
| Flat4ForLife | It uses a grub bootloader, you should see it when you boot now | 02:30 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: ls -lh /etc/dkms .. should be 2 dirs and 1 file called framework.conf | 02:30 |
| Flat4ForLife | Correct glits | 02:30 |
| Jordan_U | Valduare: In case you want to know the gory details: http://askubuntu.com/questions/37999/what-is-different-about-the-mac-iso-image . | 02:30 |

| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: cat /etc/dkms/framework.conf | pastebinit | 02:31 |
| Valduare | Jordan_U: aye thats where it talked about the mac version setting grub up for bios mode instead of efi | 02:31 |
| Valduare | why is there a mac version if I shouldn't use it | 02:31 |

| libcracka | thanks tho | 02:33 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: looks allright .. let's look for the executable .. which dkms | 02:33 |
| Valduare | libcracka: it could - write a patch :) | 02:33 |
| Flat4ForLife | It's /usr/sbin/dkms | 02:33 |
| libcracka | Valduare: Good idea been considering contributing somewhere. thank for the suggestions | 02:34 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: that's where it needs to be .. actually never seen that error before .. checking permissions on that: ls -lh /usr/sbin/dkms | pastebinit | 02:35 |

| Valduare | I don't have any blank dvd's right now | 02:37 |
| Valduare | the image is too large for a cd I think | 02:37 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: again correct, i'm looking at some info right now, like https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DKMS to see if we can produce what it seems to be missing, i'll be back shortly | 02:38 |

| wagonboi | Ubuntu 12.04 starts up and says "System Program error detected". I installed Oracle's JDK a few days ago. Where to start? | 02:44 |
| Actionparsnip | Wagonboi: in apport's log I'd say | 02:45 |
| Actionparsnip | Wagonboi: /var/log/apport | 02:46 |
| wagonboi | Actionparsnip, apport is empty, save for the Network manager which crashed on this bootup for some reason | 02:46 |
| wagonboi | Actually, that was probably the error | 02:47 |
| Actionparsnip | Wagonboi: then that's probably what is causing the popup | 02:47 |
| wagonboi | Actionparsnip, how can I reset it to default? | 02:47 |
| Actionparsnip | Wagonboi: if you edit /etc/default/apport the error won't show :-) | 02:48 |

| Flat4ForLife | I have virtual box on my mac partition, but Ubuntu is installed to the hard drive | 02:49 |

| PeterCassetta | Hi, I need some help figuring out a booting problem after installing Ubuntu. | 02:50 |
| wagonboi | Actionparsnip, probably. Aren't updates supposed to fix things?! /s | 02:50 |
| Actionparsnip | Lalala: is the server pc running an ssh service (install openssh-server in Ubuntu to get an SSH service) | 02:50 |
| Actionparsnip | Wagonboi: sometimes yes.... | 02:51 |
| PeterCassetta | I installed 13.04 on a laptop with Windows Vista | 02:51 |
| Flat4ForLife | Petercassetta: explain what's going on | 02:51 |
| PeterCassetta | Now Windows won't boot properly | 02:51 |
| Actionparsnip | Petecasaetta: what is the issue? | 02:51 |
| PeterCassetta | The whole Microsoft Corporation loading bar displays when I boot Windows from the GRUB menu | 02:52 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: okay, let's check for existence of the nvidia module: ls -lh /lib/modules/*/updates/dkms | grep nvidia | pastebinit | 02:52 |
| Actionparsnip | Petercassetta: if you run: sudo update-grub ,do you see Windows listed? | 02:52 |
| PeterCassetta | But after a short while the screen blinks white and I'm back in the BIOS | 02:52 |
| Actionparsnip | Petercassetta : raring is EOL and no longer supported in any way | 02:53 |
| PeterCassetta | Actionparsnip: Checking... | 02:53 |
| Flat4ForLife | Paste.ubuntu.com/6876660 | 02:53 |
| cfhowlett | PeterCassetta, probably need to run the windows repair utility - looks like it got confused by the new OS/partitions ... | 02:53 |
| PeterCassetta | Actionparsnip: Oops, my bad, I meant to say 13.10 :P | 02:53 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: so i think the bug might be unrelated if you don't have virtualbox on the ubuntu, but it is odd .. if the former command worked, looks like it did if you can see nvidia kernel object, we can do a reboot to test, but hang on a sec | 02:54 |
| Flat4ForLife | Ok hanging on | 02:54 |
| Actionparsnip | Petercassetta : can you pastebin the output of the update-grub command please | 02:54 |
| lalala | Actionparsnip, then what I have to do after install? | 02:54 |
| Actionparsnip | Lalala : connect to the server from the other system. You can do it in Linux with: ssh name@servername | 02:55 |
| PeterCassetta | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6876673 | 02:55 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: you have it, but there's definately something going on, as things stand you should be ok for reboot but a next kernel or nvidia upgrade might throw you back where you were before | 02:55 |
| Flat4ForLife | So reboot? | 02:56 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: are you okay to give it another reboot? timewise i'm fine, i don't have eyes on your situation, just asking | 02:56 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: if you're up 4 it yes | 02:56 |
| Flat4ForLife | I'm game haha | 02:56 |
| Actionparsnip | Lalala: or: ssh name@ip.address.of.system | 02:56 |
| glitsj16 | hehe, cool | 02:56 |
| Actionparsnip | Petercassetta: seems to be detected. Is the NTFS partition healthy? When did you last run a chkdsk? | 02:57 |
| Flat4ForLife | And we're back in black | 02:57 |
| Flat4ForLife | No splash | 02:58 |
| Flat4ForLife | Just black with flashing line | 02:58 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit .. fishy hmm | 02:59 |
| PeterCassetta | Actionparsnip: Well, nothing abnormal had been going on with Windows prior... but I have not run a chkdsk in a while. | 02:59 |
| Actionparsnip | Flat4forlife: common to have no boot splash with the proprietary video drivers. Do you eventually see the login page? | 02:59 |
| Flat4ForLife | Negative, just sits there. How long should I give it? | 02:59 |

| darkelfjuggalo | actionparsnip thank you | 03:02 |
| Actionparsnip | Petercassetta : it's been like that since win95 .... | 03:02 |
| PeterCassetta | Actionparsnip: Still, I'm far more at home in Ubuntu. | 03:02 |
| Actionparsnip | Petercassetta : same | 03:03 |
| Flat4ForLife | Yes, I just commented or deleted them, but Nvidia configuration should have set it up again | 03:03 |
| Flat4ForLife | I haven't checked since tgen | 03:03 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: after the paste of the Xorg.0.log, would you also: dmesg | pastebinit please | 03:03 |
| Flat4ForLife | Then | 03:03 |
| darkelfjuggalo | Actionparsnip : both are invitation only on freenode | 03:03 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: correct, just wasn't sure anymore we did that earlier | 03:03 |
| Flat4ForLife | I can't get in now, so I'll have to type it or pic it from recovery. Hang om | 03:03 |
| PeterCassetta | Actionparsnip: Booting safe mode now... | 03:03 |
| Actionparsnip | Darkelfjuggalo : you just need to be identified. You will need to register your nick | 03:04 |
| darkelfjuggalo | my nick is registered on freenode | 03:04 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: those are pretty big files arghh, you were right about painand the rest heh | 03:04 |
| Flat4ForLife | Lol yup, it's dumb | 03:04 |
| Actionparsnip | Darkelfjuggalo : id ask in #freenode what the deal is. There may be other channels or even other networks with channels you can join | 03:05 |
| Flat4ForLife | OK ya the log in big, can't really paste that | 03:05 |
| Actionparsnip | Petercassetta : id run a full chkdsk to make sure things are ok | 03:05 |
| darkelfjuggalo | I dont know any others very well but I'll look it up | 03:05 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: might be easier just to do the 'sudo apt-get purge nvidia-319' dance again and reboot into nouveau so you can paste | 03:06 |
| Flat4ForLife | Can I change it without removing Nvidia? | 03:06 |
| daftykins | glitsj16: wow you're still going with that guy - what's happening so far? :) | 03:06 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: can't really see how we can get to the info otherwise | 03:06 |
| glitsj16 | daftykins: we're hitting a few roadblocks :) | 03:06 |

| ahoneybun | linuxuz3r, I believe that ext3 is a good balanced one but in windows you need 3rd party apps to read it | 03:08 |
| glitsj16 | daftykins: his dkms war garbled, dpkg-reconfigure installed the nvidia-319 driver but reboot to black | 03:08 |
| ahoneybun | not sure about mac I would think it could read it fine | 03:08 |
| linuxuz3r | ahoneybun, ok | 03:09 |
| glitsj16 | that's about how it stands, not much progress for Flat4ForLife arghh | 03:09 |
| daftykins | glitsj16: erk! does the 319 support that old chip? | 03:09 |
| glitsj16 | daftykins: it should yes, to confirm we need to look at dmesg and Xorg.0.log but he's not able to paste easily right now and those are pretty big files to type over .. | 03:10 |
| daftykins | XD | 03:10 |
| daftykins | i guess you could get him to grep Xorg's log for (WW) | 03:11 |

| Beldar | PeterCassetta, Ah, can be a problem, however rarely, Do youp have windows backed up, say an image saved? | 03:14 |
| Beldar | you* | 03:14 |
| daftykins | PeterCassetta: why'd you only answer half my question? | 03:14 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: courageous :) in the meantime i'll look at some things but without logs it's wild geese .. | 03:14 |
| PeterCassetta | daftykins: It displays the loading bar screen for a while, and then the screen flashes white and the computer reboots. | 03:14 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar: Nope, but I'm pretty sure I can access the windows partition just fine in Ubuntu. | 03:15 |
| Flat4ForLife | Back to root prompt haha I'll try what you said a min ago | 03:15 |
| daftykins | PeterCassetta: hrmm, ok so it's not likely hitting a BSOD then resetting instantly | 03:15 |
| lupin | Hey question guys, I am trying to install ubuntu on a partition NTFS but it only sees the whole hard drive not the partition | 03:15 |
| daftykins | lupin: you can't install to NTFS | 03:16 |
| lupin | How do I do it? I first left it black as unallocated but it didn't show so I formated the drive | 03:16 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, When you resize windows it does a auto chkdsk, you might run one from a recovery or install disc, or from the f8 prompt if you can chkdsk/f would be my choice | 03:16 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: it sure is giving you the run for its money lol, what a mess .. can you repaste: lspci -nnk | grep VGA -A 2 please .. i lost the browser tab on that.. | 03:17 |
| lupin | daftykins does it need to be as FAT? | 03:17 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: so we can rule out what daftykins threw on the board (confirming the 319 supports your card) | 03:17 |
| daftykins | lupin: you can't install to either, Ubuntu will need preferably either an ext3 or ext4 file system on the partition it's installed to | 03:18 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar: Actually there was a recovery partition... | 03:18 |
| PeterCassetta | Not sure if it'll do any good though. | 03:18 |
| lupin | daftykins Alright, what should I do to get it ext? When I leave it blank as unallocated it tries to install to the entire HD | 03:18 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, Did you remove any partitions as part of this install? | 03:18 |
| dupingping | where do i write autorun script? | 03:18 |
| PeterCassetta | But I could at least probably make a recovery disk from it. | 03:19 |

| Flat4ForLife | Yes, it is and it's very annoying haha | 03:19 |
| daftykins | lupin: is ubuntu going to be the only OS? | 03:19 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, Can you run sudo fdisk -l in ubuntu and pastebin it. | 03:19 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar: Just gave Ubuntu 14 or so GB. | 03:19 |

| tapout | how do we remove the online integration of the searching/amazon results? Some say spyware but whatever | 03:21 |
| PeterCassetta | tapout: System Settings > Privacy | 03:21 |
| cfhowlett | !nounity|tapout, | 03:21 |
| ubottu | tapout,: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 and up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 03:21 |
| cfhowlett | tapout, or you could just install and use a non-unity desktop environment | 03:22 |

| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: http://www.geforce.com/drivers confirms your card is supported on the 319 .. although that is good news, we need to look at those logs .. can you paste again right now? | 03:29 |
| Flat4ForLife | The whole log? Nope, can't get to a gui | 03:29 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: let's try: cat /var/log/syslog | grep nvidia .. but that might not even shorten it if it has a lot of errors | 03:31 |
| Flat4ForLife | http://www.picpaste.com/20140204_203226-k0T7tk4D.jpg | 03:33 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, Cool I was concerned you had made the HD dynamic, looks good except you have partition numerically out of order is all. The chkdsk might fix this hard to say at this point, but hard to say. Additionally I see no recovery partition. | 03:33 |
| ardo | Hi all | 03:33 |
| ardo | Is anyone out there that could possibly help me get Ubuntu running on a custom built computer I just put together? | 03:33 |
| Beldar | ardo, details to the channel is where you start for help. | 03:34 |
| lalala | how can I download a file from my other pc using ssh ? | 03:34 |

| ardo | Sorry, I should've been more specific | 03:35 |
| ardo | trying to install from a USB stick | 03:35 |
| ardo | I get a "operating system missing" error any time I boot | 03:35 |
| lalala | kb3ien, how use scp ? | 03:36 |
| ardo | from a bootable USB that I created, that is | 03:36 |
| cfhowlett | ardo, you have to go into your bios to tell it to boot from the USB | 03:36 |
| tapout | is there a way to look up the Qt5 repository within ubuntu's terminal or some app without going to a website? | 03:36 |
| ardo | yeah, I've done that | 03:36 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar: I'm thinking the recovery partition is /dev/sda2 | 03:37 |
| somsip | lalala: scp user@remote:path/file localpath | 03:37 |
| PeterCassetta | But yeah, those ids are weird... | 03:37 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, you have what loks like a tiny setup for windows, are you sure you did not delete the vista C partition. | 03:38 |
| lalala | somsip, it says that they are the same file | 03:39 |
| somsip | lalala: paste what command you used here | 03:39 |
| Flat4ForLife | http://www.picpaste.com/20140204_203927-AwceTBm8.jpg | 03:40 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar: Yes, it says it has 131752934 blocks. | 03:40 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, I have a hard time telling the partition sizes, can you install gparted in ubuntu and take a screenshot of it and put it in a imagebin? | 03:40 |
| cfhowlett | PeterCassetta, just occurred to me: assuming this is an older computer, it uses the MBR partition scheme so you're limited to 4 primary partitions. If you attempt to exceed that, things break ... | 03:40 |
| PeterCassetta | cfhowlett: Yes, definitely older, 4 years or so now. | 03:40 |
| cfhowlett | !mbr|PeterCassetta, | 03:41 |
| ubottu | PeterCassetta,: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 03:41 |
| cfhowlett | PeterCassetta, ignore that factoid. | 03:41 |
| arbar | if i "sudo someprog", does someprog know which user used sudo? | 03:41 |
| PeterCassetta | cfhowlett: Ha ha, yeah, that wasn't too useful I guess | 03:41 |
| lalala | somsip, scp matt@192.168.1.101: /home/matt/movie.avi /home/matt/ | 03:42 |
| cfhowlett | PeterCassetta, the command to display all parts has escaped my brain ... | 03:42 |
| somsip | lalala: you put a space between : and /home... | 03:42 |
| lalala | yes | 03:42 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: that was a shorty, i'm honestly not sure about what is going on .. a question: the nomodeset param, have you already tried that this time around? | 03:42 |
| somsip | lalala: use scp matt@192.168.1.101:/movie.avi ~/ | 03:42 |
| PeterCassetta | cfhowlett: All partitions? | 03:42 |
| somsip | lalala: use scp matt@192.168.1.101:movie.avi ~/ | 03:42 |
| Flat4ForLife | Yes, however I cannot guarantee its in the right spot | 03:43 |
| cfhowlett | PeterCassetta, but when I was triple booting, the excess partition would write but would also kill a preceding partition rendering whatever was installed there broken. | 03:43 |
| PeterCassetta | cfhowlett, Beldar, I'll install gparted and post a screenshot. | 03:43 |
| cfhowlett | PeterCassetta, :) | 03:43 |
| somsip | lalala: if you log in as matt, the path is relative to /home/matt so just 'movie.avi' not '/home/matt/movie.avi' | 03:43 |
| lalala | somsip, Great!!! was just the space :) | 03:43 |
| somsip | lalala: k | 03:43 |
| Beldar | cool PeterCassetta | 03:43 |
| lalala | somsip, thank you sooooooooo much | 03:43 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: we can check, cat /proc/cmdline | 03:44 |
| Flat4ForLife | Has bootimage, root uuid, then ro recovery nomodeset but I am in recovery mode | 03:45 |
| Flat4ForLife | Does it need to be before or after quiet splash in regular boot? | 03:46 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: as long as it is in there it should be fine | 03:46 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: if you are still up for it, better try and purge nvidia so nouveau has the card for itself .. at least it might bring you back to regular GUI .. what do you think? | 03:48 |
| Flat4ForLife | I can boot it sometimes to the login screen, resolution is huge and once logged in I get nothing but a mouse. I remember adding a resolution in a file somewhere but I don't remember | 03:48 |
| lupin | is there a way to dual boot ubuntu and win 8 without having to change it from MBR? | 03:48 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: in /etc/default/grub perhaps? and then doing a sudo update-grub? | 03:49 |
| cfhowlett | lupin, win8 doesn't come on MBR - efi only IIRC | 03:49 |
| lalala | somsip, hey,, didn't worked | 03:49 |
| lupin | mine shows as mbr | 03:50 |
| lalala | somsip, it just copied the file to the same pc | 03:50 |
| lupin | my 2nd hdd shows as mbr at least | 03:50 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: another snap please: lsmod | grep nouveau | 03:50 |
| somsip | lalala: paste the command you used | 03:50 |
| === shock is now known as Guest49515 | ||
| Beldar | lupin, Did you install it, I have W8.1 on a msdos drive with mbr boot. | 03:50 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: actually just confirm if it says something, no need for snap this time | 03:51 |
| lupin | Beldar not yet, I have windows installed on SSD with GPT and a 2nd HDD i want to use for linux with MBR | 03:51 |
| Flat4ForLife | http://www.picpaste.com/20140204_205109-nLlcMP3N.jpg | 03:52 |
| lalala | somsip, scp matt@192.168.1.101:movie.avi /home/matt/ | 03:52 |
| Flat4ForLife | Oh haha | 03:52 |
| Beldar | lupin, Ah, theoretically probably possible, but not a standard install in that scenario. | 03:52 |
| Flat4ForLife | OK I was able to login with huge resolution, but no desktop after thay | 03:52 |
| lupin | Beldar =/ just giving up at this point, idk enough about computers to get this to work | 03:52 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: what is interesting is a snap of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf .. checking if the nvidia driver is still referenced there, without purging it's hard to tell what's going on exactly | 03:53 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar, cfhowlett, sorry for the holdup: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/66298 | 03:53 |
| somsip | lalala: what is the IP for the machine you are typing this on (ifconfig will tell you) | 03:53 |
| cfhowlett | lupin, here's an alternative; install virtualbox in windows. install ubuntu to virtualbox. | 03:53 |
| lupin | cfhowlett I just want to dual boot windows and linux like ive done for 6 years, suddenly i get a new computer and none of thats possible anymore | 03:54 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: that looks good, nouveau kernel module is loaded, so it might be the conf | 03:54 |
| Flat4ForLife | I can adjust my keyboard brightness and it shows the bar, but no desktop. So graphics work I guess | 03:54 |
| PeterCassetta | lupin: Good old Microsoft for ya | 03:54 |
| cfhowlett | lupin, possible just not painless ... but I do understand. Things change ... | 03:54 |
| PeterCassetta | But, yeah the whole UEFI stuff is a mess. | 03:54 |
| lalala | somsip, 192.168.1.100 | 03:55 |
| Flat4ForLife | I'll look at my xorg.conf | 03:55 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: well the plot thickens, but that's no news to you .. sorry this is turning out this way | 03:55 |
| lalala | somsip, i got it | 03:56 |
| somsip | lalala: then you are missing something. The command will copy from 102.168.1.101 to the local machine. | 03:56 |
| lupin | i just am suprised that it is this difficult to install linux with windows especially when using 2 different hdds | 03:56 |
| lalala | somsip, I was typing on the same terminal that I connected to ssh | 03:56 |
| somsip | lalala: that'll do it | 03:56 |
| Flat4ForLife | Not your fault, nothing to be sorry about. It is frustrating though | 03:57 |
| * somsip passes lalala a facepalm | 03:57 | |
| lalala | somsip, working now :) thanks again | 03:57 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, With the HD that full to be honest I'm not surprised, mainly that vista was to start with, if it were me I would try a chkdsk, and if vista is accessible now I would pull out any thing needed. | 03:57 |
| Beldar | just to be safely backed up with some data. | 03:57 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar: Yeah, I'll back up everything needed tomorrow probably, and then maybe try a full reinstall of Windows | 03:58 |
| glitsj16 | Flat4ForLife: fully understand that .. what we're looking for in the conf is what driver you have in there, nouveau or nvidia? | 03:58 |
| PeterCassetta | cfhowlett, Beldar, I've got to go, but thanks for the help and insights. | 03:58 |
| cfhowlett | PeterCassetta, given the apparent age of your machine, you might get better performance from xubuntu or lubunut. the latter is optimized for older/lower specification devices | 03:58 |
| Flat4ForLife | OK edited xorg, back to normal resolution. But still no desktop after login | 03:58 |
| Beldar | PeterCassetta, best of luck. | 03:58 |
| Flat4ForLife | It's set to nouveau, I changed it earlier | 03:59 |
| PeterCassetta | cfhowlett: Cool, will keep that in mind. | 03:59 |
| PeterCassetta | Beldar: Thanks! | 03:59 |

| grahamsavage | hey i sudo in as another user | 04:46 |
| grahamsavage | set umask 0007 and it's still getting like 660 when touch files? | 04:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | grahamsavage: any chance you can rephrase your question? | 04:48 |
| grahamsavage | yeah sure.. ok.. my applications are creating files with all the wrong file permissions by default | 04:48 |
| grahamsavage | each application runs under a different user... as a test i went in as that user and touched some files to check the file permissions which were coming up as 644 | 04:49 |
| grahamsavage | i would like all the file permissions to default to 770 | 04:49 |
| shafox | cfhowlett, reinstall is the only option then ? | 04:49 |
| grahamsavage | so i set "umask 0007" but when i go touch testing.. it ends up with 664 | 04:49 |
| hitsujiTMO | grahamsavage: that could be dependent on the app. some apps chmod files themselves | 04:49 |
| grahamsavage | i'm manually testing though in bash at the moment, so it's not the app currently | 04:50 |
| cfhowlett | shafox, not yet. I find it difficult to comprehend that the recovery option doesn't work for you. Please query this channel again - almost certainly someone knows more than I do. | 04:50 |
| hitsujiTMO | grahamsavage: you should check the app and see if it has an internal umask option | 04:50 |
| grahamsavage | yeah but i can't get it working even for me logged in.. so i'm not going to be able to fix the app | 04:50 |
| grahamsavage | so i'm trying to work out why if i set umask 0007 all the files that i create don't get created as 770 | 04:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | grahamsavage: ok. pastebin the output of: umask && touch me && umask 0007 && umask && touch you && ls -l me && ls -l you | 04:51 |

| hitsujiTMO | 99% of the files you create aren't executable, thats why it doesn't make then executable by default | 04:56 |
| grahamsavage | the problem with not having the underlying file as 770 then it will apply a mask | 04:56 |
| grahamsavage | to setfacl.. which means you have to chmod the file | 04:56 |
| cfhowlett | shafox, I get it. also consider xubuntu - both work pretty good on "legacy" vintage systems | 04:56 |

| hitsujiTMO | shafox: what you can do is boot to a live cd and chroot in from there to fix the issue | 06:01 |
| shafox | hitsujiTMO, installed os is ubuntu 12.04 and right now I am downloading lubuntu latest version. Does lubuntu live cd will work ? | 06:06 |

| glitsj16 | NewerGuy: can you paste the output of: "xinput --list" on paste.ubuntu.com? | 08:44 |
| mikejudge | i need non pae maybe 11.10 | 08:45 |
| NewerGuy | Sure, give me a few moments. | 08:45 |
| honeybuntu | i was told i can rely on this channel to get assistance. my reason for seeking help here is that i'm tired of being supplied "erroneous" information by prankish rogues at work. i'm the target of their pranks - so if my questions sound outrageously inept - please bear with me - i am very new to LINUX Ubuntu. | 08:46 |

| glitsj16 | NewerGuy: i think it is id 13, you can check with "xinput --list 13", paste that as well so we can confirm | 08:48 |

| honeybuntu | installed ubuntu 12.04.3 on amd64 laptop (NOT dual-boot) - if i have 1st: /boot EFI partition, 2nd: "/" partition, 3rd: my "/home" in its separate partition, 4th: a swap space partition, isn't that the proper order in which to create and maintain Ubu 12.04.3 LTS partitions? | 08:49 |

| NewerGuy | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6877919/ | 08:49 |
| honeybuntu | i know there is a specific order in which the various partitions must be arranged - however, i was otherwise instructed recently (not in freenode/#ubuntu) that i should create my "boot/EFI" partition 1st, secondly the: "/" partition, thirdly: the "Swap" partition, and finally my "/home" partition. This sounded odd to me but i came here to confirm. | 08:51 |

| NewerGuy | Sure, hold on. | 08:52 |

| tangorri | how would I update my php to 5.4 plase (12.04lts | 09:07 |
| somsip | tangorri: only by upgrading to a newer version, or using the ondrej PPA which is not supported here | 09:07 |
| === EDMyo is now known as e-tard | ||
| glitsj16 | NewerGuy: ok, at least that confirms you have a synaptics package installed, that's a generic name for touchpad drivers .. can you run: lsmod | grep mouse and tell us what that did? | 09:09 |

| NewerGuy | psmouse 82769 0 | 09:10 |
| NewerGuy | I have no idea what that means. | 09:10 |
| glitsj16 | NewerGuy: good, it means the generic mouse driver from the linux kernel is loaded | 09:10 |
| NewerGuy | Ok, then is my Elantech just not supported by the generic driver? | 09:11 |
| glitsj16 | but you might need to add something to it, at least that is what i see on: http://software.techassistbox.com/ubuntu-ubuntu-1204---acer-aspire-e1-572-backlight-touchpad-ethernet_84088.html | 09:11 |
| zx42o | the fastest fix at this point would be to just reinstall ubuntu, but was hoping for a better option | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip | NewerGuy: is it a mouse mouse, or a touchpad on a laptop? | 09:12 |
| somsip | tangorri: and if you do use ondrej PPA, make sure you know the effects. You might need to use ondrej/php50oldstable | 09:12 |
| somsip | *php5-oldstable | 09:12 |
| NewerGuy | It's a touchpad. | 09:12 |
| glitsj16 | NewerGuy: it probably is, the name of the brand doesn't always relate to a brand in linux .. and it is called 'mouse', a bit confusing if you're looking for a touchpad | 09:12 |

For some reason whenever I attempt to copy a file from any ext* partition to any of my FAT32 USB drives, the transfer almost finishes (gets to 100% or close), but then hangs without finishing. If I yank the USB drive and plug it back in, the file appears to have copied perfectly, but I can't figure out why it hangs like that and forces me to yank the drive without a safe ejection. Can anyone help? | 09:35 |

| ActionParsnip | tapout: fewer packages installed and to update | 09:40 |
| russ_ | Hi.I want to use light desktop capture application except webcamstudio. Does anyone know it? | 09:40 |
| tapout | to update? | 09:41 |
| Rubas | tapout: thereby less trafic used, bandwidth saved, makes the world a better place to live | 09:41 |
| ActionParsnip | tapout: yes, think about it you will have gnome and kde to run updates for | 09:41 |
| bristleback | I would like to write a free linux application similar with yahoo messenger and I would like opinions regarding this idea | 09:41 |
| ActionParsnip | tapout: so if you are using kde, why have gnome installed too? it's a waste | 09:41 |
| tapout | ahh okay | 09:41 |
| tapout | thanks | 09:41 |
| tapout | i'm pretty shocked hell nice UbuntuStudio i s | 09:42 |

| tapout | ActionParsnip, actually i'm trying all the desktop environments ... i wanna get a feel for each | 09:42 |
| linelevel | sandGorgon: I've tried rsync (usually with -rtvP ...I only use -a for backups), it hangs at 100% on each file, but it never finishes and renames the file to its proper name. I end up having to Ctrl+C out of it. | 09:42 |
| tapout | which desktop enviornment are you running? | 09:42 |
| ActionParsnip | tapout: no bad thing. Its fun to try new things | 09:43 |
| ActionParsnip | tapout: LXDE | 09:43 |
| tapout | lxde? hrmm, is that for germans? (DE) :) | 09:43 |
| tapout | haven't heard of it, checking it out | 09:43 |
| ActionParsnip | de = desktop environment | 09:44 |
| babilen | tapout: There is no real reason for the existance of "Kubuntu", "Ubuntu" and "Xubuntu" as all three are, essentially, simply "Ubuntu" + Desktop Environment. You can, naturally, install all desktop environments on all of them (and also remove previously installed ones and thereby turning "Xubuntu" into, say, "Ubuntu") | 09:45 |
| tapout | babilen, ahh neat | 09:45 |
| NewerGuy | ActionParsnip: my system seems to consistently freeze during the shutdown process. It restarts normally. Any idea why? The touchpad drivers seems to be working fine now. | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | tapout: you can even not use a DE and just use a window manager on it's own. Lower resource use | 09:46 |
| babilen | tapout: It is, IMHO, simply a misguided attempt to make it easier for completely new users who expect the "One OS, one Interface" design of Windows to hold true. A bunch of them unfortunately believe that you'll have to reinstall in order to switch interfaces. | 09:46 |
| tapout | i don't get the love for openSUSE that people are showing it. I've installed 3 flavors of ubuntu, no issues. Tried to install opensuse and multiple errors (ya i'm in vmware workstation, but so what :) | 09:46 |
| ActionParsnip | NewerGuy: are there any bugs reported? | 09:46 |
| babilen | tapout: Think of them as differing in the pre-selected desktop environment and some "branding" (background pictures, names, ...) | 09:47 |
| tapout | babilen, i installed like 4 different DE's, all you gotta do is logout, hit the button.. choose another, login, boom | 09:47 |
| tapout | profit :) | 09:47 |
| NewerGuy | No popups but is there a lower level error reporting system? | 09:47 |

| gordonjcp | babilen: if you tried to fit the three major DEs into the install image, it would be very large | 09:54 |

| NewerGuy | ActionParsnip: Same problem. | 09:54 |
| gordonjcp | (not that anyone uses CDs any more) | 09:54 |
| gordonjcp | babilen: I suspect most people wouldn't want to download a ~2GB image that contained two DEs they had no intention of using | 09:55 |
| babilen | gordonjcp: Yes, I totally see the need to provide different install images, just not for the (apparent) existance of different distributions that, in essence, only differ in branding and pre-selection of the DE | 09:55 |

| abhishek_ | Well, I mainly wanted to ask if there are stability updates worth upgrading to; all the while the system NOT consuming more resources. | 10:43 |
| xforking | Abishek, what gpu exactly? I have intel as well. Works 99% of the time though kwin has crashed a few times. | 10:43 |
| DJones | gordonjcp: Well if it does, its not something thats noticable | 10:43 |
| gordonjcp | DJones: you're lucky, then | 10:44 |
| gordonjcp | DJones: which chipset in particular? | 10:44 |
| gordonjcp | gen 7 chipsets don't seem to be affected | 10:45 |
| starrats | I have windows7 laptop and xubuntu 13-10 on VB and I'm going to install Ubuntu 12-4-3LTS also on my VB, will there be any problems? | 10:45 |
| gordonjcp | so, basically Linux is only suitable for very new PCs with Intel | 10:45 |
| OtiG | Hi everybody! | 10:46 |
| DJones | gordonjcp: Not sure exactly, i3-350 with INtel HD graphics | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | for anything more than a couple of years old, you'll want to look at an alternative to Linux | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | DJones: gen 6 | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | or gen 7? | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | more likely the latter | 10:46 |
| DJones | gordonjcp: No idea | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | anyway | 10:46 |
| gordonjcp | if you've got anything older than Gen 7 you'd be better switching to Windows XP | 10:46 |
| Nasuka | or crunchbang | 10:47 |
| gordonjcp | Nasuka: not supported | 10:47 |
| gordonjcp | Nasuka: Linux no longer supports Intel chipsets older than Gen 7, it appears | 10:47 |
| gordonjcp | since there are fatal regressions in pretty much every module, that no-one cares to fix | 10:48 |

| Aneiron | Hello, I am trying to install the latest release of Monodevelop on Ubuntu 13.10 from source, but I get many error messages about gtk/gdk assembly references. My google fu is failing me, does someone know of a solution? | 10:53 |
| tapout | ActionParsnip, I checked out LXDE.. very nice, but what is even nicer, RazorQT | 10:56 |
| tapout | so far, razorqt is the fastest and cleanest i've found | 10:56 |
| tapout | i didn't get awesome installed properly, or it didn't pop up on my login screen to check it .. so I didn't get a chance to check out awesome, but RazorQT | 10:57 |
| tapout | is sweet | 10:57 |
| ActionParsnip | tapout: similar kind of deal RazrQt is based on Qt | 10:57 |
| bessono | Aneiron, Why you not install monodevelop by apt-get? Why from source? | 10:58 |
| tapout | ActionParsnip, and it's sooo darn fast man.. i can't believe how fast it is | 10:58 |
| Aneiron | bessono: thank you for answering, isn't that version 3.0.2 or something, whereas the newest is 4+? | 10:58 |
| Ojeu | Greetings! | 10:59 |
| Ojeu | I'd just like to shoot a quick question | 10:59 |

| === DrewRWx[GB] is now known as DrewRWx | ||
| fieranna | Ojeu: there is, you can change the default permissions for how the stick is mounted, but I cannot remember how . I would look at usb mounting docs however. | 11:00 |
| tapout | somehow, when I go to login ... my screen got switched from the default to what UbuntuStudio uses... how can I disable that? or change it back? | 11:00 |
| bessono | Aneiron, I'm use 2.8 and do not have problems :) | 11:01 |

| tapout | fieranna, thank you! | 11:03 |
| tapout | where do you guys get your desktop backgrounds? any cool ones you guys are using? | 11:03 |
| bessono | Aneiron, But if you have to use latest version from source You must install GTK lib for development | 11:03 |
| Ojeu | fieranna: Thank you! I will have a look | 11:04 |
| bessono | Aneiron, Sorry I have to go, be lucky! | 11:06 |
| Aneiron | bessono: cheers | 11:06 |
| xforking | tapout, i'm using a ubuntu steel wallpaper :) | 11:07 |
| fieranna | tapout: Just be aware that sometimes on a shared computer your desktop backdrop ends up on the login screen. | 11:07 |
| tapout | xforking, where did you get it? damn that looks sweet | 11:08 |
| xforking | tapout, check your private messages. | 11:09 |

| from | Hi, I noticed an issue recently. With 32-bit Ubuntu and an encrypted home directory, a VirtualBox virtual disk breaks once the size exceeds 4GB. | 12:23 |
| GyrosGeier | hi | 12:24 |
| from | I first thought it to be VirtualBox specific, but it proved impossible to create any file larger than 4GB in the encrypted home directory. | 12:24 |
| GyrosGeier | I'm trying to report a bug, and keep getting redirected to the wiki page about how to report a bug | 12:24 |
| from | GyrosGeier: Have you created a launchpad account? https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/NewAccount | 12:26 |
| GyrosGeier | yes | 12:26 |
| GyrosGeier | in fact, it was created for me before the dawn of time :) | 12:26 |
| GyrosGeier | I'm also logged in | 12:26 |
| geirha | GyrosGeier: yes, because they generally want bugs to be reported via apport. | 12:27 |
| GyrosGeier | ah | 12:27 |
| GyrosGeier | well | 12:27 |
| from | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug/?no-redirect | 12:27 |
| geirha | GyrosGeier: If that's not possible, and you really need to report via the web interface, the wiki page does explain how, but now from copy/pasted it for you | 12:27 |
| GyrosGeier | it is one of these "on hardware X, I get black screen during boot" bugs | 12:27 |
| GyrosGeier | btw | 12:28 |
| from | Back to my question, 'cause everything is about me. Is the 4GB filesize limit in encrypted home directory on 32-bit Ubuntu a known limitation or something for a bug report? | 12:28 |
| GyrosGeier | the formatting on the wiki page is messed up, and an entire section of markdown code is shown in a <pre> | 12:28 |

| from | :) | 12:36 |
| === san is now known as Guest91718 | ||
| from | Rubas: No. You CAN, however, have "Rubas" and "Rubas-2" accounts. However, the IRC protocol doesn't allow multiple connections to the same in-system user. | 12:37 |
| from | ubottu: Thanks, I didn't find it last time I looked, probably was too new then. Seems to have been filed about the same time I lost my virtual disk. | 12:38 |

| from | ^_^ | 12:38 |
| Rubas | from: ok thanks :) | 12:38 |
| Rubas | from: you sure about that? | 12:40 |
| from | Rubas: You could, of course, have a server of your own which maintains the connection to IRC, which itself allows the connection you're looking for. | 12:40 |
| from | Which might be what that "IRC Bouncer" you asked about is all about. ;) | 12:41 |
| Rubas | from: so it is possible? :) | 12:41 |
| from | (Never heard the term before) | 12:41 |
| Rubas | from: you never head about a IRC Bouncer? | 12:41 |
| from | It is possible, through a third piece of software which aggregates your connections. | 12:41 |
| from | Rubas: I haven't exactly been using IRC much since the 90s... | 12:42 |

| alexa | Is it possible to scan the USB device in order to check how many buttons are there and to assign them the values? | 12:43 |
| Rubas | from: lol :p yeah okay, but i think irc bouncers existed even then :) | 12:43 |

| alexa | from, I know it won't be easy. I just need right support :D | 12:44 |
| from | Rubas: I did write my own client once, though, which is why I was certain as to the protocol. | 12:44 |
| Rubas | from: nice :D, but what do you use IRC for now? | 12:44 |
| from | Ah, to bother this channel about why encryptfs broke my VBox virtual disk. | 12:44 |

| obsidian | Awesome! Thanks .. so I think somebody messed up one of the updates to Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr). After I installed some updates last night I booted up and logged into a blank desktp (no launcher, or menu bars). I tried to reset Unity with various commands I searched off the internet (i.e., ~$ unity --reset) BUT pretty much nothing worked. I was able to get into my System Settings page by right-clicking on the desktop and Installin | 13:01 |
| obsidian | g Updates again in hopes that the developers had found & fixed their problem, miraculously the did! I re-booted and my system works as normal again. I know this is a mouthful but in case anyone has similar problems, all you need to do is install the latest updates. | 13:01 |
| from | 14.04 isn't released, playing around with Alpha releases lead to issues. :) | 13:02 |
| cfhowlett | obsidian, you're installing an alpha release. expect the unexpected. | 13:02 |
| obsidian | I think I figured it out the hard way. | 13:02 |

| GreyMist | i don't need nvidia if intel will run normally without mesa, i need OpenGL ~4.0 | 13:14 |
| Npc | well bumblebee can turn it off so does it matter? | 13:14 |
| from | Npc: One would think so, but while it CAN turn the graphics output from the card off, the card itself keeps on running, generating heat and using up battery. | 13:15 |
| Npc | from: hmm, mine doesn't eat much battery | 13:16 |
| Npc | battery life is close to what it is on windows | 13:16 |

| cfhowlett | !nounity|Parsi, | 13:49 |
| ubottu | Parsi,: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 and up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 13:49 |

| medo | Hi there, I have a few questions. Why exactly is it not possible to have Ubuntu Desktop on an ARM based phone? | 14:56 |
| jinzo | medo, I'm no Ubuntu expert but there're several reasons probably: From that not all packages compile on ARM, that the unity probably utilises openGL that is not supported by the graphic drivers in ARM SoC-es (OpenGLES is used there) | 14:58 |
| jinzo | and so forth | 14:58 |
| medo | And there isn't any sort of alternative to OpenGL? | 14:59 |
| === duoi is now known as duoi_afk | ||
| medo | I guess the same question would apply to Windows RT. I understand the source code isn't available to the public, | 15:00 |
| medo | but i find it hard to believe i am the only person in the world that would love to see a fully functional UMPC. | 15:00 |
| witheld1 | medo, jinzo is wrong | 15:01 |
| ActionParsnip | jinzo: I wouldnt use Unity on ARM personally | 15:01 |
| medo | especially with phones seemingly getting bigger. I could see a Galaxy Note utilizing that very well, and even the HTC one. | 15:01 |
| witheld1 | and you could have Ubuntu on your phone, the packages are technically there, but drivers are a problem | 15:01 |
| jinzo | ActionParsnip, I was listing technical reasons that came to mind | 15:01 |
| ActionParsnip | jinzo: makes sense. I'd run openbox or fluxbox to keep the desktop light | 15:02 |
| witheld1 | However Wayland and Mir have an android driver backend so you can probably hack something up with enough time and effort | 15:02 |
| witheld1 | But you're definitely not gonna run X on 90% of devices | 15:02 |
| witheld1 | The drivers just don't exist | 15:02 |
| medo | @witheld1 so I'm assuming it's just due to not having the patience to compile? | 15:03 |
| witheld1 | For the most part the compiling is done | 15:03 |
| witheld1 | Ubuntu has ARM packages for basically everything | 15:04 |
| jinzo | There's also the problem with ASM code | 15:04 |
| jinzo | and optimization | 15:04 |
| witheld1 | jinzo: that's less then 1% of packages | 15:04 |
| jinzo | and whatnot when it comes to compiling software written with x86 in mind for ARM | 15:04 |
| witheld1 | The Rabian guys figured that out | 15:04 |
| witheld1 | Rasbian* | 15:04 |
| witheld1 | basically everything will work if you can actually manage to get it on there | 15:05 |
| jinzo | yes? What do I know - there're constant breakages and problems with compiling stuff like python, firefox, chromium when I'm trying it | 15:05 |
| medo | So what are the key things holding it back? | 15:05 |
| skulltip | quick question, i'm creating a QT gui application. Is it still customary to create a menu bar for my app? I remember in earlier ubuntu when they chagned the desktop to look like a mobile app with the menu bar of every application at the top instead of on the 'child' application. | 15:05 |
| witheld1 | Other then graphics and probably kernels, you'll have to do that yourself | 15:05 |
| witheld1 | jinzo: well, for one, I own a MIPS laptop, and an ARM Rasberry Pi | 15:05 |
| witheld1 | and everything works | 15:05 |
| jinzo | that doesen't mean it was easy to get it working :) | 15:06 |
| witheld1 | but | 15:06 |
| witheld1 | it's already working, other then kernels and graphics | 15:06 |
| witheld1 | of course, those are also the hardest to get working | 15:06 |
| witheld1 | so good luck | 15:06 |
| denisw | hi | 15:06 |
| ActionParsnip | witheld1: it'll get better, its how it goes :) | 15:06 |
| witheld1 | perhaps | 15:07 |
| witheld1 | especially on nvidia devices now | 15:07 |
| medo | So where abouts would i go to support a project like this? I can't seem to find much. | 15:07 |
| witheld1 | Since they're now contributing to the kernel for ARM devices | 15:07 |
| witheld1 | medo: you build it yourself | 15:07 |
| witheld1 | The project that is | 15:07 |
| witheld1 | you take your phone, you find out what needs to be done | 15:07 |
| hoodedice | Xubuntu fails to boot | 15:07 |
| witheld1 | then you do those things | 15:07 |
| lattera | when trying to link with libcheck, I get these errors: http://pastebin.com/c3EWPiJx | 15:08 |
| lattera | anyone know why that would happen? | 15:08 |
| denisw | any idea when the next vUDS is being held? If it is every 3 months as announced a year ago, there must be one this month (last was in November), but I cannot find any announcement to that effect | 15:08 |
| medo | I understand, thank you for all who had input on my question. I appreciate it. | 15:08 |
| witheld1 | there's no real interest in right now, since phones are only just getting powerful enough for that kind of thing | 15:08 |
| hoodedice | Tried fixing it, but to no avail. Problem was guessed as being due to light dm, but even after reinstalling, It still doesn't boot | 15:08 |

| induz | based on open gpl | 15:10 |
| induz | means free | 15:10 |
| denisw | hoodiedice: are you using trusty? i am asking because a lightdm-doesn | 15:10 |

| kamal__ | hi | 15:10 |
| denisw | hoodedice: a light-dm-doesn't-start problem was just fixed today in trusty | 15:11 |
| induz | crossloop is to remote access a machine | 15:11 |
| hoodedice | Mine is Quantal | 15:11 |

| induz | Pici, for emote access | 15:11 |

| === Guest74253 is now known as whoever | ||
| hoodedice | The one thing that's dissing me at the moment is the ia32-libs package being discontinued | 15:14 |
| denisw | hoodedice: please note that quantal will be end-of-life'd in April, so you might want to simply upgrade to fix the problem | 15:14 |
| induz | Pici, yes like vnc but simple for others | 15:15 |
| hoodedice | upgrade to? | 15:15 |
| skulltip | wow, ia32-libs? how will alot of the other items surive out there, like Freebasic? | 15:15 |
| denisw | hoodedice: 13.10, or if you are adventorous, 14.04 development (which I am running since weeks without problems) | 15:16 |
| induz | is there another appliction like VNC, simple and easy | 15:16 |
| hoodedice | Wait. Is Quantal not 13.10 | 15:16 |
| hoodedice | *facepalm* | 15:17 |
| hoodedice | "Saucy" | 15:17 |
| denisw | hoodedice: oh, ok, you are running 13.10, ok xD | 15:17 |
| obsidian_ | Quick question: when 14.04 LTS is released and I go through the UPGRADE process will everything in my /home directory get wiped? I've read some stuff out there about mounting /home on a separate partition but is this necessary or recommended? | 15:17 |
| hoodedice | I don't think so obsidian_ , but I would recommend it | 15:18 |
| denisw | skulltip hoodedice: AFAIK ia32-libs was discontinued because you can now simply install the 32-bit libraries along the 64-bit ones | 15:18 |
| hoodedice | Yeah, but some apps have problems with that | 15:19 |
| hoodedice | Python for example - Installing 32 bit lib for it kills the software center | 15:19 |
| hoodedice | Reinstalling the software center kills python | 15:20 |
| hoodedice | They absolutely LOVE each other | 15:20 |
| ActionParsnip | obsidian_: no, but you should have a backup if your data is important. A separate /home partition does not mean you don't need a bacup solution | 15:20 |
| denisw | hoodedice: i guess this because the packages are fighting for the "python" in PATH | 15:21 |

| TJ- | Mongo44: If the host OS is intercepting the expected key-presses, then you'll need to look at the hypervisor for ways to send those key-combinations to the guest | 16:24 |
| ui_ | Mongo44: host key + F1 | 16:24 |
| Mongo44 | ui_ You are correct thank you much. | 16:25 |
| purvesh | neel, hi | 16:25 |
| fieranna | Mongo44: host+F1 is correct, it's section 1.8.3 in the VBox manual | 16:25 |

| pip_ | can I make a mount point which has the same name as the hard drive label I want to mount there? | 16:30 |
| whiskers75 | yes | 16:30 |
| pip_ | aha - now I think I'm getting somewhere :) | 16:30 |

| Kdworak84 | Hello | 16:36 |
| GyrosGeier | hi | 16:36 |
| Kdworak84 | Can anyone help me with my problem. After installing ubuntu I cant start my laptop | 16:37 |
| GyrosGeier | is there a way to clone launchpad bugs? | 16:37 |
| GyrosGeier | I have a bug that probably affects multiple packages | 16:37 |
| Kdworak84 | after putting ubuntu to sleep I my laptop powers on and sits with the lights blinkning and the screen off | 16:38 |
| MonkeyDust | Kdworak84 what version and what happens when you try? | 16:38 |
| Kdworak84 | let me check, its the latest one, i donwloaded it last night | 16:38 |
| Kdworak84 | 12.1 | 16:39 |
| Kdworak84 | 13.1 sorry | 16:39 |
| fieranna | 13.10; it's the year and month of the release | 16:40 |
| Kdworak84 | cool, good to know | 16:40 |
| Kdworak84 | i was loving it till i closed the laptop lid | 16:40 |
| TomyWork | TJ- i tried it for longer than 5s now | 16:40 |
| Kdworak84 | now i have nothing | 16:40 |
| TomyWork | it triggers after 5s of being disconnected :) | 16:40 |
| Kdworak84 | anyone have a clue? | 16:41 |
| GyrosGeier | normally, opening the lid should wake it up | 16:43 |
| === Subo1977_ is now known as Subo1977 | ||
| GyrosGeier | if not, try pressing a key, or the power button | 16:43 |
| Kdworak84 | lol, ya its open | 16:43 |
| Kdworak84 | oh yeah ive been pressing | 16:43 |
| halfburnttoast_ | have you tried pressing CTRL + ALT + F1? | 16:43 |
| halfburnttoast_ | to see if X crashed or something? | 16:43 |
| Kdworak84 | no | 16:43 |
| jc_ | salut | 16:43 |
| Kdworak84 | im totally noob | 16:43 |
| Kdworak84 | i will try that... | 16:44 |
| halfburnttoast_ | you should see a login prompt | 16:44 |
| ikonia | window 12 | 16:44 |
| ikonia | oops | 16:44 |
| Kdworak84 | nothing | 16:45 |
| Kdworak84 | just blinking lights | 16:45 |
| halfburnttoast_ | press capslock | 16:45 |
| halfburnttoast_ | does the light come on for that? | 16:45 |
| Kdworak84 | thats one of the blinking lights | 16:45 |
| halfburnttoast_ | the kernel crashed | 16:45 |
| TomyWork | tj | 16:46 |
| halfburnttoast_ | you'll need to hard restart the machine | 16:46 |
| TomyWork | oops | 16:46 |
| Kdworak84 | i had win7 on the machine | 16:46 |
| Kdworak84 | does that change anything? | 16:46 |
| Kdworak84 | dual boot | 16:46 |
| halfburnttoast_ | probably not | 16:46 |
| Kdworak84 | how do you hard restart??? | 16:46 |
| halfburnttoast_ | if you were booted into linux and the caplock key is unresponsive or blinking, the linux kernel crashed | 16:47 |
| TomyWork | TJ- /etc/network/if-post-down.d/something_executable works nicely. it's invoked 5s after disconnecting, which seems to be good enough | 16:47 |
| halfburnttoast_ | hold the power button till it turns off | 16:47 |
| Kdworak84 | k | 16:47 |
| TomyWork | after solving this annoying problem, i'm going home :) | 16:47 |
| Kdworak84 | halfburnt thats a hard restart? ive done that multiple times | 16:48 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, when the capslock key is blinking, all you can do is force it to turn off | 16:48 |
| halfburnttoast_ | it should then go back into post and give you the grub menu | 16:49 |
| Kdworak84 | lol yeah i wish | 16:49 |
| halfburnttoast_ | when you turn it on again | 16:49 |
| halfburnttoast_ | wait, it doesn't post? | 16:49 |
| Kdworak84 | i mean i have everything backed up but... | 16:49 |
| halfburnttoast_ | does it show you anything when it turns on? | 16:49 |
| halfburnttoast_ | vender logos or anything? | 16:49 |
| halfburnttoast_ | can you get into bios? | 16:50 |
| Kdworak84 | when it turns on it is blank/off screen, and blinking caps lock light and nunberpad light | 16:50 |
| Kdworak84 | FML | 16:50 |
| fieranna | Whee, sounds like UEFI | 16:50 |
| halfburnttoast_ | but you cant get into bios or uefi if you have it? | 16:50 |
| Kdworak84 | .....bro the screen is off | 16:51 |
| Kdworak84 | its a duck | 16:51 |
| halfburnttoast_ | right, but when you turn it on and try to get into bios or uefi, does it let you? | 16:51 |
| Pici | blinking caps/num/scroll lights typically indicates a kernel panic | 16:51 |
| Kdworak84 | havent tried that | 16:51 |
| Kdworak84 | pici | 16:51 |
| obsidian | Pici is right | 16:51 |
| Kdworak84 | thats my problem, what do i do | 16:52 |
| Kdworak84 | lol | 16:52 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, linux did panic, but if you cant' get into bios or uefi, then you have bigger problems | 16:52 |
| fieranna | I'm getting coflicting signals. If it's not booting and won't POST, it can't be kernel | 16:52 |
| ActionParsnip | or bad ram | 16:52 |
| halfburnttoast_ | that's true | 16:53 |
| halfburnttoast_ | I wonder if the uefi secure boot thing could cause it to panic | 16:53 |
| Kdworak84 | any ideas on what my next step should be guys? | 16:54 |
| halfburnttoast_ | but if you can't get into bios or uefi, then it's more likely a corrupted firmware, bad ram, or hardware falure | 16:54 |
| fieranna | I have seen UEFI machines do this. You would epect an error msg if it's planned but apparently no-one told the firmware developer :-) | 16:54 |
| halfburnttoast_ | restart your computer and spam the hell out of F1, F2 and delete | 16:55 |
| Kdworak84 | k | 16:55 |
| halfburnttoast_ | it should take you to either bios or UEFI | 16:55 |
| halfburnttoast_ | or at the very least show you something | 16:55 |
| obsidian | Kdworak84, do you know whether your Secure Boot/Fast Boot settings are ENABLED or DISABLED? | 16:55 |
| Kdworak84 | do not know | 16:56 |
| obsidian | Kdworak84 - do you know how to access your BIOS/UEFI? | 16:56 |
| Kdworak84 | yeah its esc | 16:57 |
| Mongo44 | When I ls /etc/x11 it says that it doesn't exist. | 16:57 |
| xeonid | hey guys , anyone know that Nvidia Optimus is supported on Ubuntu 13.10 , a read only about bumblebee but it's not give satisfacted me | 16:58 |
| obsidian | Kdworak84, you're gonna need to grab a piece of paper and pencil, restart your computer, and jot down some settings in your UEFI - make sure your Fastboot & Secure Boot options are DISABLED | 16:58 |
| fieranna | if it shipped with uefi and win8 installed, you probabvy; enter the bios from the windows bootloader (like grub) and there's no physical key you press for bios | 16:58 |
| Mongo44 | Yet I can clearly see it when I ls /etc. | 16:59 |
| obsidian | What version of Linux are you trying to boot? | 16:59 |
| ui_ | Mongo44: it's /etc/X11 | 16:59 |
| ui_ | upper case | 16:59 |
| Kdworak84 | obsidian - ubuntu 13.10, and btw, i cant see anything screen does not turn on | 17:00 |
| Mongo44 | Oh alright, you got it again! | 17:00 |
| Kdworak84 | no its a win7 | 17:00 |
| halfburnttoast_ | caps lock flashing again? | 17:00 |
| obsidian | Kdw, so you're booting into a Blank Screen? Or are you still getting the blinking capslock? | 17:01 |
| Kdworak84 | caps lock and num lock, dead screen | 17:01 |
| Kdworak84 | im booting into a blank screen and blinking lights | 17:01 |
| Kdworak84 | and this is after simply closing the laptop down, which in win7 is sleep.... | 17:01 |
| Kdworak84 | but i was in ubuntu at the time | 17:02 |
| halfburnttoast_ | were you able to get into uefi earlier? | 17:02 |
| Kdworak84 | yes | 17:02 |
| Kdworak84 | i changed the boot order to boot from hdd | 17:03 |
| Kdworak84 | usb hdd | 17:03 |
| halfburnttoast_ | did you disable secure boot if it was enabled? | 17:03 |
| Kdworak84 | i didnt touch anything else... | 17:03 |
| halfburnttoast_ | i'd go back in and make sure it's off | 17:04 |
| obsidian | Kdw .. you gotta give us some info | 17:04 |
| obsidian | about your UEFI | 17:04 |
| fieranna | i am still not even sure if he can enter bios or not; or if the machine is not powering on correctly | 17:04 |
| obsidian | Restart, press Esc or F2 or whatever it takes to access your UEFI interface and tell us whether Secure Boot is ON/OFF and which mode is selected (i.e., CSM Mode, or UEFI OS) | 17:05 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, I dunno if UEFI is programmed to flash capslock like linux if it dies | 17:05 |
| halfburnttoast_ | but if he can get into it, I'd say that it is booting to linux and it's immediately panicing | 17:05 |
| fieranna | meanwhile the viking calendar says it's ragnarok on 22 feb so i'm updating thunarr just in case :) | 17:05 |
| Kdworak84 | guys i been restarting and pressing almost every button combo | 17:05 |
| Kdworak84 | nothing | 17:05 |
| obsidian | Kdw, so what you're saying is you CAN'T access your UEFI ? | 17:06 |
| halfburnttoast_ | but you did get into uefi, I just want to be clear on that | 17:06 |
| Kdworak84 | nope | 17:06 |
| halfburnttoast_ | it's the difference between dead linux and possibly dead computer | 17:06 |
| Kdworak84 | yes before i installed ubuntu | 17:06 |
| fieranna | Kdworak84: if you;re sure you cant enter uefi/bios right now, this machine sounds borked. but i would disconnect power and battery and leave it 5 mins just in case it's stuck in some weird power state | 17:06 |
| Kdworak84 | k thatll be my next step | 17:07 |
| === Guest98497 is now known as Sleepnbum | ||
| halfburnttoast_ | another option is to remove the external drives from the motherboard, if that's possible, and see if you can get into uefi | 17:07 |
| Kdworak84 | external drives? | 17:08 |
| whadar | someone here maintains a distro? I'm looking for someone who uses hosting for large files | 17:08 |
| halfburnttoast_ | yeah, basically removing anything that might cause it to fail post | 17:08 |
| Kdworak84 | its a laptop, all usb ports are clear | 17:08 |
| halfburnttoast_ | all non-essentials | 17:08 |
| halfburnttoast_ | ah | 17:08 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, | 17:08 |
| halfburnttoast_ | that makes it more difficult | 17:08 |
| obsidian | Kdw, what is your boot priority ? | 17:08 |
| fieranna | Kdworak84: laptops usually have standard drives connected to their motherboards, however some of the ultraportables have soldered down SSD then you are out of luck. in any case check warranty before opening case. | 17:08 |
| Kdworak84 | obsidian its usb hdd | cd | 17:09 |
| === xubuntu is now known as Guest51982 | ||
| halfburnttoast_ | i meant to say internal drives | 17:09 |
| halfburnttoast_ | CD/DVD, harddisk, card readers, anything that it doesn't need to get into uefi/bios | 17:10 |
| obsidian | halfburnttoast, it would take some hand-holding but if he has access to the GRUB menu, or grub> prompt he could try to launch the kernel (manually) or at least an existing version if it's an option | 17:10 |
| halfburnttoast_ | which is pretty much just CPU, motherboard, and ram | 17:10 |
| Kdworak84 | not an option | 17:10 |
| Kdworak84 | nothing on the screen | 17:10 |
| fieranna | i opened up a macbook and discovered the battery was glued down ... that upset me. I had to chisel it out and i do NOT want to be anywhere near lithium with a chisel :( | 17:10 |
| halfburnttoast_ | possibly, but it sounds like he can't even get into bios/uefi | 17:10 |
| halfburnttoast_ | that would be issue #1 | 17:11 |
| obsidian | Kdw, do you get a GRUB loader or Windows Boot loader ? | 17:11 |
| Kdworak84 | lol obsidian | 17:11 |
| Kdworak84 | ur a though cookie | 17:11 |
| Kdworak84 | the first time every i restarted my ubuntu i got the grub and i chose ubuntu | 17:11 |
| Kdworak84 | then i closed the laptop and since then no screen | 17:12 |
| halfburnttoast_ | can you remove the battery from the machine? | 17:12 |
| Kdworak84 | ive done that | 17:12 |
| obsidian | Kdw, since you can't access your UEFI, you should be able to access a boot loader which is the stage between the UEFI and Kernal (that's panicing) | 17:12 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, hmm | 17:12 |
| halfburnttoast_ | next step is to remove the harddrive | 17:12 |
| halfburnttoast_ | but, that might void the warrantee | 17:13 |
| halfburnttoast_ | depending on thelaptop | 17:13 |
| Kdworak84 | u think my hd crashed? | 17:13 |
| Kdworak84 | cause it was acting up bad | 17:13 |
| Kdworak84 | the machine that is | 17:13 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, it's a matter of removing possiblities | 17:13 |

| halfburnttoast_ | all the computer needs to get into bios/uefi is the cpu, motherboard, and the ram | 17:13 |
| Kdworak84 | i apologize | 17:14 |

| Kdworak84 | for the lol'ing | 17:14 |
| guille_ | alguien habla castellano | 17:14 |
| halfburnttoast_ | but, if there's no harddrive, it wont boot into linux | 17:14 |
| halfburnttoast_ | it should report that there is no bootable medium | 17:14 |
| halfburnttoast_ | that'll be a message from bios/uefi | 17:14 |
| Kdworak84 | ok ill try that | 17:14 |
| halfburnttoast_ | which would tell me that the computer is working | 17:14 |
| Kdworak84 | boot with out hd right? | 17:14 |
| halfburnttoast_ | right | 17:15 |

| Kdworak84 | btw thx halfburnt | 17:15 |
| halfburnttoast_ | no problem! | 17:15 |

| ubottu | guille_: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 17:15 |
| guille_ | ok | 17:15 |
| fieranna | i would actually look up the pattern of blinking lights in the service manual for the laptop | 17:16 |
| halfburnttoast_ | ^ thats another good idea | 17:16 |
| halfburnttoast_ | not all laptops have beep codes | 17:16 |
| dino2k | i have a tp-link 8811; and i only can connect it and use adsl connection via USB; is it possible to set it in ubuntu/ | 17:17 |
| Kdworak84 | yeah it did have a pattern | 17:17 |
| Kdworak84 | like 2 blinks and pause | 17:17 |
| halfburnttoast_ | aaah | 17:17 |
| dino2k | @ | 17:17 |
| halfburnttoast_ | bingo | 17:18 |
| Kdworak84 | ?? | 17:18 |
| fieranna | the first uefi machine i had, uefi was new and there were no onscreen mesages for boot errors; it just flashed lights and beeped to tell you things | 17:18 |
| halfburnttoast_ | that's probably the motherboard | 17:18 |
| halfburnttoast_ | not linux | 17:18 |
| Kdworak84 | well damn | 17:18 |
| Kdworak84 | thats not good | 17:18 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, depending on the pattern, it may be fixable | 17:18 |
| Kdworak84 | i was hoping it was the hd | 17:18 |
| halfburnttoast_ | you might have a bad ram stick, or one of the drives is corrupted | 17:18 |
| halfburnttoast_ | it might be | 17:18 |
| obsidian | fireanna - oh yeah that would irritate me fast | 17:18 |
| obsidian | UEFI is a headache | 17:19 |
| Kdworak84 | going to try to power it on with hd then take it out, just found a screwdriver | 17:19 |
| halfburnttoast_ | if you remove it the HDD and it doesn't do that, then there's a strong probability that it's the disk | 17:19 |
| halfburnttoast_ | especially if it was working fine before hand | 17:19 |

| Kdworak84 | rest as in it rested and powered off | 17:20 |
| Kdworak84 | no didnt touch hd | 17:21 |
| Kdworak84 | took out battery and power cable | 17:21 |
| halfburnttoast_ | ah | 17:21 |

| MonkeyDust | Kdworak84 what was your issue? | 17:21 |
| Kdworak84 | still you the man | 17:21 |

| halfburnttoast_ | heh, not trying to take credit | 17:21 |
| Kdworak84 | fieranna!!! my fault!!! | 17:21 |
| halfburnttoast_ | maybe uefi got caught in a power loop or something | 17:21 |
| obsidian | Kdworak84, wait ... so all you did is power off and reboot? | 17:22 |
| halfburnttoast_ | he took the battery out | 17:22 |
| Kdworak84 | obsidian it sat for like 10 min and yea it turned on | 17:22 |
| obsidian | Bizarre? | 17:22 |
| halfburnttoast_ | pretty | 17:22 |
| Kdworak84 | well sorry for the commosion | 17:22 |
| obsidian | Interesting.. | 17:22 |
| emil_stdio | newbie question: what is the purpose of the text that appears on the corner of the desktop when I type text ( this is not the command bar when I type a command ) | 17:22 |
| obsidian | Well, glad you got your machine working again! And, yes, halfburnt & fieranna both deserve a little credit ;-) | 17:23 |
| Rory | emil_stdio: what ubuntu version are you using? | 17:23 |
| Mongo44 | Right now I can only run it in 640X480. | 17:23 |
| halfburnttoast_ | heh, well in the future I'll need to remember to ask what pattern the lights are flashing in earlier | 17:23 |
| emil_stdio | Rory: 12.04 | 17:23 |
| halfburnttoast_ | I'd forgotten that not all laptops have beepcodes :/ | 17:23 |
| Kdworak84 | all of you deserve the credit, half most of all, man first brush with linux and It was a close one | 17:23 |
| Rory | emil_stdio: The file manager "nautilus" draws the desktop. if you have shortcuts on your desktop, you can start typing to select one with that name, the same as you can in the file manager | 17:24 |

| Kdworak84 | wow I thought I needed a new machine | 17:24 |
| Kdworak84 | atleast a new hd | 17:24 |
| halfburnttoast_ | heh, well, as sherlock would say: balance of probabilities | 17:25 |
| emil_stdio | Rory: odd, it does not really launch an app that is in the launcher ( this is just a small rectangular box on the lower right/left corner ) unity desktop | 17:25 |
| Kdworak84 | im an IT noob | 17:25 |
| obsidian | Mine gave me the blinking capslock + fnlock once but I don't recall what I did to fix the issue. It was probably related to the UEFI firmwar | 17:25 |
| Kdworak84 | but want to learn linux and everything about it | 17:26 |
| halfburnttoast_ | well, I figured that UEFI secureboot would just kill it immediately | 17:26 |
| emil_stdio | it just appears whenever I type and I am just on the desktop. I'm just curious what it's purpose is | 17:26 |
| emil_stdio | *on the desktop, I mean no window on the current workspace | 17:26 |
| Kdworak84 | once again, thx guys for helping with a hardware question, cant even call it an ubuntu question... take care! | 17:27 |
| obsidian | emil_stdio it's just a desktop searchbox | 17:28 |
| halfburnttoast_ | no probs, seeya | 17:28 |
| dino2k | sorry | 17:28 |
| Rory | emil_stdio: I know it is not the launcher. It is searching for the names of desktop shortcuts | 17:28 |
| Rory | emil_stdio: It operates identically to the same functionality in the file manager Nautilus | 17:28 |
| dino2k | I have coneected my TPlink tp td-8811via usb port; | 17:28 |
| emil_stdio | Rory: sorry, just found it. I kept searching for ubuntu/precise and text/desktop. seems just unity, to focus on a desktop item | 17:28 |
| Rory | emil_stdio: Make a file on your desktop called "foo" and search for "fo" and you will see it selected | 17:29 |
| emil_stdio | since I don't have items on the desktop, it's useless for me | 17:29 |
| dino2k | is it possible to use it like that in ubuntu | 17:29 |
| Rory | emil_stdio: Me too, but you did ask :) | 17:29 |
| emil_stdio | Rory: yes, thanks. strange feature. I though the unity UI was conducive to a clean desktop. oh, well | 17:30 |
| obsidian | emil_stdio - if say (hypothetically) you had a really messy desktop with a bunch of files (crap) and you wanted to find a file or folder quickly you could just start typing the name of what you're looking for and the text will show up in a textbox in the lower righthand corner of the screen and immediately highlight the file / folder you're looking for | 17:30 |
| overratedsnowbal | hello, does anyone know how to use NFS with AUFS? | 17:30 |
| obsidian | and yeah - if you don't have anything on your desktop then it's useless :-) | 17:31 |
| fieranna | why am i seeing google chrome updates in the software updater? i thought google chrome updated itself these days? | 17:32 |
| fieranna | ah wait, i have a 3rd party PPA. sorry chaps | 17:33 |

| michagogo|cloud | fieranna: Chrome updates itself on Windows | 17:34 |
| michagogo|cloud | And maybe also on OS X | 17:34 |
| michagogo|cloud | But on Linux, it relies on the package manager to stay up to date | 17:34 |
| dino2k | any ideas | 17:34 |

| tds5016 | hi all. I was wondering what the easiest way to check if DHCP is set to full/static/mixed on ubuntu? I'm trying to do this through pyhton... so if there's an easier way than reading a file, that'd be best, but I could handle any of it. | 17:39 |

| chemist^ | tds5016, could you do: "pastebinit /etc/network/interfaces" ? ... (without the "") | 17:42 |
| chemist^ | if you don't have pastebinit installed do "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" | 17:42 |
| chemist^ | tds5016, paste the URL here so i can take a look | 17:43 |
| tds5016 | chemist^: this is for an embedded device... so sudo apt-get install won't work wo well :-) | 17:43 |
| tds5016 | so well* | 17:43 |
| chemist^ | ok than just do "cat /etc/network/interfaces | 17:43 |
| tds5016 | chemist^: yeah. :-). what would the different settings show up as. | 17:44 |
| overratedsnowbal | does anyone have any alternatives to aufs that can be networked | 17:44 |
| tds5016 | it looks like inet dhcp and inet6 dhcp are there. | 17:44 |
| tds5016 | and auto eth0 | 17:44 |
| tds5016 | looks like loopback is also set to auto. | 17:44 |
| chemist^ | if it says inet dhcp that means dhcp is enabled | 17:45 |
| tds5016 | what would the settings for mixed and static look like | 17:45 |
| tds5016 | ?* | 17:45 |
| dino2k | any help? | 17:45 |
| chemist^ | if it is set to static, it's written "static" | 17:45 |
| chemist^ | and IP's listd | 17:45 |
| chemist^ | listed... | 17:45 |
| chemist^ | if you have no IPs listed, and insted of "static" it says "dhcp" ... | 17:45 |

| loa | fieranna, flash working, but npapi broken yes. | 18:19 |
| loa | many crappy ads appear on youtube) | 18:19 |
| steviedon | weedmic: have a look at te ubuntu help pages for file permissions talks about ACL access control lists there, they are extra to the usual rwx perms | 18:19 |
| Aossi | can some one help me at all? | 18:20 |
| fieranna | loa: you could uninstall, and then re-install the older verison. use synapic to lock version so it never upgrades | 18:20 |
| loa | fieldfirst, synapptic can help me with this? | 18:21 |
| fieranna | loa: synaptic package managers gui enables you to lock a package to a specific version so it does not upgrade normally | 18:22 |

| mrdavid | I'm running Unity on an 11.10 system. I have a question mark icon that is permanently floating on the left of my screen. When I activate the application launcher, it looks like the question mark icon is part of that. I can't make it go away. Any ideas? | 18:31 |
| Doci | mrdavid: reflex question: why 11.10? why not any LTS? | 18:31 |
| OerHeks | mrdavid, 11.10 is EOL, so that ? sounds like an update manager wants to tell you something | 18:32 |
| mrdavid | it's a Dell system that was only supported by 11.10 at the time | 18:33 |
| mrdavid | upgrading is a to do item but it's not convenient at the time. | 18:33 |
| Doci | are there other people here with an ATI driver that suddenly stopped working in the past few days? I just ran an update/upgrade (12.04.3, apt-get update && upgrade) and after that my compiz suicided, along with pretty much any game. | 18:34 |
| Doci | mrdavid: i'm guessing update settings then? something like "don't tell me when there's an upgrade" | 18:34 |
| mrdavid | what app might that be? I'll try killing it | 18:34 |
| Doci | following OerHeks' suggestion that it has to do with update manager | 18:34 |
| OerHeks | en ! in a red dot would be a programm crash if i recall correctly | 18:35 |

| Doci | (also try sudo apt-get update and running the install again) | 18:40 |

| Doci | myeah, did a few times already | 18:59 |
| loa | OerHeks, what is better to use, chromium or google chrome? | 18:59 |
| daftykins | Doci: i see a lot of you typing small bits on many lines, no single paragraph of question though (: | 18:59 |
| loa | if i am just simple user) | 18:59 |
| loa | i get now flash 12 | 18:59 |
| loa | and looks like it is better | 18:59 |
| loa | thx | 18:59 |
| Doci | daftykins: just helping out in the meanwhile too, building some positive karma, lol | 18:59 |
| loa | i got google-chrome-stable and see it is not very stable :S | 19:00 |
| chevi | lol | 19:00 |
| Doci | sec, i re-search my problem lol, i forgot cli outputs so i have to try those again | 19:00 |
| xforks | Chromiom is based on chrome, so you'd get very similar browser regardless which one you choose. | 19:00 |
| Doci | daftykins: aticonfig: No supported adapters detected | 19:00 |
| Doci | has been working since somewhere in 2012 without problems | 19:00 |
| loa | xforks, it is not similar, i see freeze when use google chrome | 19:01 |
| daftykins | Doci: what hardware and what method are you installing drivers by? what gave that error? | 19:01 |
| swatson | google chrome is based on chromium -- id say use chromium, much better IMHO | 19:01 |
| Doci | i wasn't installing anything | 19:01 |
| xforks | loa, i don't use either but chromium is a chrome deriviate so they also do their own thing. I take it you go with chromium then? | 19:01 |
| Doci | i ran an apt-get update/upgrade this morning, didn't notice anything, continued work, tried to play UT, and from there i discovered that my compiz didn't work anymore | 19:02 |
| chevi | anyone can help me with my sound card issue? | 19:02 |
| Doci | from there on i couldn't get into my catalyst settings, | 19:02 |
| Doci | and no resolve on google yet | 19:02 |
| xforks | I find it annoying they went from Firefox 26 in kubuntu 13 to firefox 25 in kubuntu 14 | 19:02 |
| Doci | also no recent mentions of the same problems of other people, so i guess it's a unique case | 19:02 |
| loa | xforks, i only see one point of installing google chrome it add new flash into system) but i found rep where new flash is standalone) | 19:03 |
| fieranna | swatson xforks: chrome is chromium with additional proprietary code, for example, a newer flash player; sometimes you run into content chromium can't play | 19:03 |
| daftykins | Doci: ok, have you rebooted since? i'll ask again: *which card*, *which driver* ? | 19:04 |
| daftykins | and which ubuntu version too? | 19:04 |
| fieranna | loa: Filling out PDF forms online as well ... but most people don't need to do that. However if you do, it usually fails with chromium :( | 19:04 |

| loa | i only know pdf files | 19:05 |
| mrdavid | Doci: that's not the unix way | 19:05 |
| mrdavid | Doci: I'm old school | 19:05 |
| fieranna | loa: It's a pdf file with spaces to type in information. it's not common you see them but they are useful sometimes for sending out complex forms that require filling in | 19:06 |
| loa | ah | 19:06 |
| fieranna | loa: UK Government has a lot of their small business forms done this way, for example | 19:06 |

| Doci | daftykins: how do i read a driver version from cli again? | 19:14 |
| Doci | the stupid thing is that it has been working for the longer of a year, never had trouble, and now it quits. that implies that the proper software and drivers are installed, but that something turned 'em off, or broke them | 19:15 |
| digs | memcache just crashed. | 19:16 |
| daftykins | Doci: so since you first installed, you've never manually installed a graphics driver? | 19:16 |
| digs | So, it has to be memcache that is the issue. | 19:16 |
| Doci | daftykins: correct | 19:16 |
| Doci | eh | 19:16 |
| Doci | sec, | 19:16 |
| Doci | i have catalyst installed | 19:16 |
| Doci | and have been running fine with that | 19:16 |
| daftykins | so you did install a driver | 19:16 |
| Doci | obviously, yes | 19:16 |
| Doci | i just don't consciously recall it ;) | 19:17 |
| daftykins | heh well considering how many times you've changed your mind... :D | 19:17 |

| Doci | ) * | 19:19 |
| daftykins | *nod* | 19:19 |
| Doci | tatoma: dual boot is fine imo | 19:19 |
| Doci | you'll just notice that you'll boot less in windows at some poin | 19:20 |
| Doci | t | 19:20 |
| fieranna | tatoma: If you're happy, why switch? | 19:20 |
| fieranna | tatoma: Contrary to what you might have been told, Ubuntu is not a religion :-) | 19:20 |
| Doci | daftykins: older kernels didn't make a difference, though, and i was stupid enough to apt-get autoremove at some point | 19:20 |
| Doci | fieranna: the unix way is, amirite? ;) | 19:20 |
| daftykins | Doci: do you think it was a manually downloaded driver from AMD, or an fglrx package from a PPA? | 19:20 |
| tatoma | I'm looking at the advantages? I'm intrigued by the freedom of linux. | 19:21 |
| Doci | i bet fglrx, but i can't find anything about a ppa | 19:21 |

| bibi234 | hello, I have an ubuntu computer and a thermal printer (ESC/POS), I'd like to connect them (I've alread installed cups and tried through the interface without success), what can I do? I'd like to print a dummy thing like "Hello", what is the easiest way to do it? | 19:24 |
| tatoma | Even though Steam is going for linux and great amount of indies are compatible this ain't not so valid point. | 19:25 |
| Doci | bibi234: notepad/openoffice, type, print, | 19:25 |
| Doci | tatoma: minecraft >_> | 19:25 |
| daftykins | Doci: hehe, i guess you could try either reverting fglrx to an older version or just try downloading and installing one from AMD's website if you feel comfortable with that, you can type !ati to get a link to a guide from the channel bot if not | 19:25 |
| Doci | bibi234: that what you wanted to know? or do you have trouble connecting to the printer? | 19:25 |
| Doci | daftykins: i think i prefer the reverting fglrx first, where do i get started on that? | 19:26 |
| daftykins | Doci: i'm only vaguely familiar with the idea that you can remove fglrx then install a specific version by appending an extra variable with your apt-get command, couldn't tell you how to do it though - i've never done it | 19:27 |
| daftykins | Doci: i've just found some further useful info though, one sec | 19:27 |
| Doci | daftykins: thanks for the effort, eitherway | 19:28 |
| bibi234 | Doci: not sure it would work, this is a ticket printer, it looks like this one (http://www.myposprinter.com/images/SRP-350G.gif). It needs a special format input apparently called ESC/POS. Yes I haven't connected it yet. | 19:28 |
| Doci | ah, that way | 19:28 |
| Doci | i hate those things >_> | 19:28 |
| daftykins | Doci: ah no, from your X.org log you're already good on version numbers - take a look at the section 'Older RadeonHD' here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Hardware | 19:28 |

| rww | photek: no seen bot in here | 19:29 |
| photek | ok | 19:29 |
| Doci | still, it's definately related to the gflxr (or whatever the order of l,x and r), since i booted, upgraded, rebooted, failed. | 19:30 |
| ianorlin | use /msg nickserv info bodhi_zazen instead | 19:30 |
| Doci | still, i'm not sure whether I should be offended that my vid is now suddently considered "older " | 19:31 |
| daftykins | Doci: ah silly me, it's the 'radeon' driver that says it's supporting your card right now, not fglrx. so fglrx having updated is definitely the issue | 19:31 |
| Doci | i guess i'll just not play any games until april, or do a clean install before that time | 19:31 |
| Doci | ok, one step in the right direction | 19:31 |
| daftykins | well running a newer LTS isn't going to make it work, if anything it'll guarantee your old card will no longer be supported | 19:32 |

| Doci | synaptic packman has this nice option "force package", just pick the previous version | 19:48 |

| jirido | should i try to reinstall nvidia drivers and "remove" xorgs? | 20:26 |
| Doci | i usually consider it less work to do a clean install | 20:26 |
| Doci | is that an option for you? | 20:26 |
| Ozera | Can anyone help me with this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21587391/x-509-and-private-key-confusion ? | 20:27 |
| Beldar | zaitzev, What user/password exactly, more specific details needed. | 20:27 |
| Doci | a clean install for me takes about 35 minutes, solving a problem a few hours. | 20:27 |
| Beldar | zaitzev, specific install of both help, is one a vm? | 20:28 |
| jirido | I would like to know where it is written what drivers that is gona be loaded so i could choose. I used jokey-gtk to take away the old ones and install the rcomended ones.. aand now im been out of box a day.. and It's TeRRIBLe | 20:28 |
| jirido | Clean install you are joking.. | 20:29 |
| halfburnttoast_ | that depends on what you have your system doing | 20:30 |
| halfburnttoast_ | for small servers or vms, reinstalling is usually faster | 20:30 |
| halfburnttoast_ | but when you have to reload 500GB+ of backups, it kinda isnt | 20:30 |
| jirido | I'v installed programs and tweeked this for som year to be my good slave mashine | 20:30 |
| jirido | Its my main desktop | 20:30 |
| zaitzev | Beldar: Neither is a vm, Windows 8.1 on my desktop machine, and ubuntu on a laptop | 20:30 |
| Doci | jirido: i have all my data on a seperate disk, and a text file with the apt-get install command of all programs that i want | 20:31 |
| halfburnttoast_ | i'm talking about huge system breaks too | 20:31 |
| Doci | it's of course your decision, i just brought it up because I consider it a viable solution | 20:31 |
| halfburnttoast_ | not like dependency problems or something | 20:31 |
| jirido | Well i dont and this cant be so terible complicated.. | 20:31 |
| zaitzev | Beldar: The username and password of the Windows user, which in 8.1 is the Windows Live account | 20:31 |
| Beldar | zaitzev, ah a network connect, does not that like seem relevant? I have no knowledge there. | 20:31 |

| elichai2 | for get rid of all the spare packages after i moved to lxde | 21:39 |
| jirido | hitsujiTMO: but if i install that from apt will it overtake everything else , like nouevoue and other old grafic drivers or do i have to set it someware /331 | 21:40 |
| SvenOostenbrink | dpkg -r fglrx fglrx-amdcccle fglrx-dev is only for the .deb packages.. this is the official AMD/ATI driver which is just an installer without packages.. | 21:40 |

| jirido | hitsujiTMO: and i did not install it yet! | 21:40 |

| ikonia | that doesn't make sense | 21:41 |
| fieranna | elichai2: Yes you do, everyone should have a backup | 21:41 |
| ikonia | if you've had it for a long time that is a BIG reason to back up | 21:41 |

| hitsujiTMO | zeeshan: why? | 21:49 |
| fieranna | elichai2: a lot of computing "lore" like defrag comes from the windows ecosystem which has different technology. don't really defrag ext3. | 21:49 |

| ikonia | so look at saving space elsewhere | 22:03 |
| elichai2 | ikonia, i'm not feeling good with having packages that i don't need :( | 22:05 |

| ikonia | what is the problem ? | 22:05 |
| jirido | ikonia: maybe elichai2 has digital anorexia | 22:06 |
| hitsujiTMO | jirido: ok, the xorg suggests 2 possible causes for the error, you've a custom resolution set in xorg.conf that it cannot support, or its defaulting to an odd resolution that it cannot support as it cant read the monitors edid data. | 22:06 |
| hitsujiTMO | jirido: pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 22:06 |

| ubuntuaddicted | confused on how to install the guest additions for vbox. do i run the iso in my host OR within the vm after it's fired up? | 22:09 |
| hitsujiTMO | /quit raving | 22:10 |
| Jordan_U | elichai2: First, 1: I agree that having extra packages doesn't really hurt anything 2: This guide has not been updated for 13.10 and thus will be problematic if you're using 13.10 3: Please read the preface to this guide completely. All that said, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-lubuntu/ | 22:10 |
| swatson | I actually know how elichai2 feels | 22:10 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: in the guest | 22:10 |
| ikonia | hence "guest additionas" | 22:10 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, ok thanks for clarifying. | 22:10 |
| swatson | I dont like having a ton of packages I dont use on my system. | 22:10 |
| swatson | Keep it clean and neat. | 22:10 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, well, the host has a guest on it so I wasn't sure if installing the guest additions on the host allowed the guest extra capabilities | 22:11 |
| ikonia | again, it's not "drity" or "messy" | 22:11 |
| ikonia | ubuntuaddicted: I see your confusion | 22:11 |
| emx | i get these kinds of errors lately without changing any configuration. the messages appear in the console when playing a film with mplayer: [ vdpau] Error when calling vdp_output_surface_destroy: An invalid handle value was provided. | 22:11 |
| emx | any help? | 22:11 |
| elichai2 | Jordan_U, thats the thing, i thought about installing debian+lxde but then i realized that maybe it won't give me much more than just installing lxde without reinstall the distro (and messing with all my data) | 22:11 |
| ikonia | elichai2: how can you say that, I said "install lubuntu" and you said "no as you don't want to restore" - so why is it ok to do debian + lxde ? | 22:12 |
| ikonia | it's a moving target | 22:12 |
| jirido | hitsujiTMO: My screens real resolution is 1366x768 but it never comes up as an option.. Then for some reason it started to mix in 1024x something.. and nvidia settings started to not work anymore.. and now i cant log in!! crazy.. | 22:12 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, now all of a sudden only the clicking the middle mouse button acts like the clicking the left. lol | 22:12 |
| ubuntuaddicted | ikonia, i don't know what i pressed to accidentally do this | 22:13 |
| Jordan_U | ikonia: As implied by their last comment, re-installing is not preffered in either case as it requires "messing with all my data". | 22:13 |
| jirido | hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6881819/ this is for 1xorg.conf as i moved it to some reboot ago.. as i thought it would help | 22:13 |
| ikonia | Jordan_U: right, but then blindly removing packages and hoping for the best is not really a good option | 22:13 |
| elichai2 | ikonia, in start i thought to install debian+lxde but then i realized it won't really help to speed up my laptop so i gave up on it (because i don't want to start messing with restoring) | 22:13 |
| jirido | hitsujiTMO: just because.. yes to get rid of this settings | 22:14 |

| k1l | Douhan: ok, then i dont know why that doesnt work. can you install the package with apt-get install? | 22:43 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: I'll use the grub minimal editor to test it | 22:43 |
| Somelauw | I heard that options specified using grub minimal editor aren't persistent | 22:43 |
| === FreezingAlt is now known as FreezingCold | ||
| Douhan | No I can't, I even tried with =version like this: "apt-get install php-apcu=4.0.2-2+debphp.org~precise+1" | 22:44 |
| Somelauw | so that should be completely safe | 22:44 |

| Psil0Cybin | hey guys i just got a new lenovo laptop i am trying to install ubuntu 12.04 but it is only giving me three boot options windows boot manager efi network 0 and efi network 0 what can i do?! | 22:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | do i change bios settings to legacy? | 22:44 |

| Douhan | This is a Linode VPS, I configured it as 64-bit | 22:45 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: What one procedure to do, is from grub boot paramaters, boot with "nomodeset" and once in the desk top, ->Additional Drivers utility to install the recommended driver (??). | 22:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | usb boot is enabled in bios, i am confused why i cannot actually boot from usb | 22:45 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: I already got that driver | 22:45 |
| Somelauw | but I'm not sure if it got enabled | 22:45 |
| raub | Dumb question: I create a gpg key in a box (12.04). How do I "move" it so I can use it in another vm? | 22:46 |

| Douhan | Can I get updates if I do that? | 22:46 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: wget it first at least. see if you have a propper route to the server | 22:47 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: if that "nomodeset" is still in /etc/default/grub, - did you reboot after installing the fglrx driver ? else then yeah must manually remove "nomodeset" .. what card are we talking about here ? | 22:47 |
| Douhan | Ok downloaded it | 22:47 |

| Somelauw | Bashing-om: according to lspci, I'm using this driver: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) | 22:48 |

| Psil0Cybin | how can I boot linux on my new lenovo. | 22:49 |
| Douhan | hitsujiTMO: I couldn't pastebin (it gave an error), "N: Unable to locate package php5-acpu" | 22:49 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: yuk ! Intel does not recognize that option. Edit the grub file and get rid of it !. also fglrx is an ATI product, NOT Intel ! What gives ? | 22:49 |
| Douhan | apt-get just doesn't see my PPA as a source :/ | 22:50 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: ok: apt-cache policy php5 | pastebinit | 22:50 |
| k1l | Douhan: without the 5, imho | 22:50 |
| Douhan | hitsujiTMO: this one has the ppa: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6882027/ | 22:51 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: Pastebin -> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 vga <- so we know what your graphics situation is. | 22:51 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: i think k1l maybe right: apt-cache policy php-acpu | pastebinit | 22:51 |
| Douhan | php-apcu* -- it says "You are trying to send an empty document, exiting." | 22:52 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: but no error "N: Unable to locate package php-acpu" ??? | 22:53 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: https://pastee.org/n7b35 | 22:53 |
| Somelauw | and my internet is down | 22:53 |
| Douhan | I tried both, they both say: N: Unable to locate package [[php-acpu/apcu]] | 22:54 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: looking at 7b35 . | 22:54 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: what's that? | 22:54 |
| Blanco | "Bonne soirée/nuit les gens :)" | 22:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: dammit, i typo'd: apt-cache policy php-apcu | pastebinit | 22:55 |
| Douhan | Same output hitsujiTMO | 22:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: ahh. ok. | 22:55 |
| Douhan | Is it me or this PPA is partly broken? | 22:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: i'd assume an error on the PPA side. Broken index or whatnot | 22:56 |
| Douhan | Should I report this to the owner of the PPA? | 22:56 |
| hitsujiTMO | Douhan: do, he should be able to verify if its an issue at his end our yours | 22:57 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: i'm gonna reboot, trying to disable nomodeset | 22:57 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: All I am seeing is Intel, show us pastebin -> sudo lshw -C display <- . | 22:57 |

| Somelauw | Bashing-om: rebooting enabled a maximum of 32767 * 32767 | 23:05 |
| Bashing-om | hitsujiTMO: Thanks for watching my back, newer systems are catching me off-guard. | 23:05 |
| Somelauw | so disabling nomodeset did do something | 23:06 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: what's the file again to make disabling nomodeset permanent? | 23:06 |
| Somelauw | /etc/grub | 23:06 |
| Psil0Cybin | hey guys | 23:06 |
| hitsujiTMO | Bashing-om: np. there's always something new cropping up to get in our way :P | 23:06 |
| Psil0Cybin | what can i type to display my system information how much ram i have? etc? | 23:07 |
| hitsujiTMO | Psil0Cybin: free -m or to see the raw hardware: sudo dmidecode | 23:07 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: Can I do GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""? | 23:09 |

| aclffrd | what could be causing my high idle load problem? i have some debug info listed at http://paste.ubuntu.com/6882097/ | 23:11 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: I am researching your controller, be a bit. Is there a backup file? -> ls -la /etc/default/ <- | 23:11 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: i copied the file to my home dir before modifying | 23:12 |
| Somelauw | But no idea how to recover, because if i mess up that file, I'll probably be unable to boot | 23:12 |
| starrats | whois justinS_ | 23:12 |
| kermit | how can i make apt install things without worrying about some unrelated broken dependancies? | 23:13 |
| kaddi | what's the maximum amount of RAM ubuntu 64bit will recognize by default | 23:13 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: pastebin -> cat /etc/default/grub <- and let's see what is . | 23:13 |
| Jordan_U | kermit: What is your end goal? | 23:13 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: https://pastee.org/ftjsv | 23:14 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: That file is good as is.. do: -> sudo update-grub <- and see what results. | 23:16 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: i did | 23:16 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: and then rebooted ? what is your status now ? | 23:17 |
| Somelauw | but already booted using nomodeset, because i used the nano-like editor in grub | 23:17 |
| Somelauw | i can do another reboot to check the config file | 23:17 |
| Somelauw | or actually i mean no nomodeset | 23:17 |
| Somelauw | double negotation | 23:17 |
| Somelauw | negation* | 23:18 |
| hitsujiTMO | kaddi: 32bit is 64gb. 64bit is 16 EB | 23:18 |
| Somelauw | Bashing-om: and the resolut is that xrandr now shows extra resolutions | 23:18 |
| kaddi | hitsujiTMO: great, does it support that out of the box? | 23:19 |
| hitsujiTMO | kaddi: yup | 23:19 |
| Bashing-om | Somelauw: Yeah, let's get a freash look at things ! .. what version of ubuntu are you running ? Intel now has a driver installer for ubuntu ! | 23:19 |
| kaddi | thanks :) | 23:19 |

| ikonia | thank you ben | 23:54 |
| Ben64 | but still curious of the meaning of "indirectly" | 23:55 |
| ikonia | so does this desktop setup the same gnome variables such as GTK and GDK parameters ? | 23:55 |
