[00:00] hello i have a lite problem with apt-get and kernel 3.10 [00:01] on ubuntu 12.04 [00:01] sudormrf: so you are inserting fields? [00:01] ikonia, I am in there, it's dead. [00:01] eri_: why do you have kernel 3.10? [00:02] nop [00:02] AlanBell, sort of. these fields autoupdate and have placeholder text. I found something that said it was supposed to do it in LO and tried it, but the behavior wasn't really close to what I was looking for. [00:03] but the thing is the apt-get doesn't complete the instalation i dont know why [00:03] /msg NickServ IDENTIFY van77 111111 [00:03] and i have block apt-get [00:03] sudormrf: so, insert-fields-other, give it a name and a value and insert it, then go somewhere else and insert the same field === odo is now known as Guest63456 [00:03] and dpkg [00:03] how can I tell if my ram is running in dual channel mode? [00:03] van77, opps [00:03] ahoneybun: ))) [00:03] eri_: raring got 3.08 and saucy got 3.11. so what ubunut is that exactly? [00:03] sudormrf: double click the field to pop up the window to edit the value and they all change [00:03] i cand do the dpkg --configuration -a [00:04] AlanBell, Let me try it and see if the behavior is what I am looking for. brb. [00:04] eri_: put all your commands and output into a pastebin please [00:04] is there a way to install gcc 4.7.3 in ubuntu 13.10? [00:05] anton02, yes [00:05] im not in the machine allready [00:05] not irc intalled [00:05] but let me try [00:05] thanx [00:06] anton02, http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/core/saucy/main/base/gcc-4.7 [00:07] ikonia: oh, i meant, it's a debian package that got imported by ubuntu. i wasn't able to answer because i lost connection on that other laptop [00:07] AlanBell, so just trying that, I don't think that is what I am looking for. I wasn't able to set a value in the field, double clicking it didn't present me with the option to modify anything. IIRC the last time I was looking at this people were talking about cross-references and bookmarks [00:08] contemplating trying WPS by kingsoft to see if it has this functionality, but the functionality of WPS is pretty crippled at the moment. [00:10] sudormrf: well I have just done it in writer 4.1.3.2, just inserting the same custom field multiple times and changing them [00:10] hola [00:10] alguien habla cristiano [00:10] AlanBell, when you did insert - field - other, what option did you selecT? [00:10] hahaha [00:10] sudormrf: You might be able to try ipython notebook as well [00:10] eso quisiera yo [00:11] sudormrf: when you insert the field, you want to be on the variables tab and have user field selected in the first box [00:11] give it a name and a value and format of text and you are done [00:11] !sp | Romerol eri_ [00:11] si [00:11] !spanish | Romerol eri_ [00:11] Romerol eri_: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés.

[00:16] AlanBell, I am not getting the same behavior as you are describing === i1 is now known as van77 [00:16] should i install nginx through apt-get or manually compile it? [00:16] AlanBell, nm. got it. [00:17] now to see how it works in word. [00:17] ffff: that depends which modules and version you need for nginx; refer to their docs [00:17] * ffff is referring to nginx's docs [00:18] Can anyone help figure out why my Ubuntu won't load through grub, but through refind it does? I haven't modified the files so I don't know why it shouldn't work when it built its self === Guest47292 is now known as jrib [00:18] Anyone know how to modify this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6882377/ so that I can get greater than 640X480 resolution?

[00:19] Bashing-om: only need to change the resolution [00:20] using xrandr [00:20] Is there a good utility for handling multibutton mice? [00:20] xrandr don't work. [00:21] thanx have some one in the ubuntu es [00:21] chao [00:21] AlanBell, docx (word 2007/2010) didn't display properly, doc displayed properly but they weren't fields, the second docx option (open office doc x?) didn't display properly, odt file displayed properly, but didn't work. weak. I wonder if I can export to PDF and have it be fillable. [00:21] where can i find what v of nginx apt-get is currently servicing? [00:21] Somelauw_: The kernel should hace set the correct resolution native to your monitor . There should be no "xrandr" involved. [00:21] Bashing-om: but that laptop lost wireless connection, so I can't really give error messages or something [00:21] I don't even know why there are three monitor sections. [00:22] is there like a npm site for apt packages? === elacheche_anis is now known as Wahid-TN [00:22] Bashing-om: in theory of course === Wahid-TN is now known as elacheche_anis [00:22] sudormrf: well, docx is a prop format form ms. there is just limited compatibility. best is to talk to the open/libre guys what to do [00:22] I am looking for some information about ubuntu and running on mac laptops in specific. I am thinking of installing ubuntu on my macbook air and just am curious as to what may not work before I go for it. [00:22] ffff: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/nginx [00:23] I do run ubuntu on my desktop at home and it works just great but I am thinking of the laptop and the ways it may be different. [00:23] Bashing-om: or maybe if i download the drivers from the manufacturers website instead of using ubuntu's propierty drivers tool [00:23] how do you set the default version of gcc you wish to use?

[00:51] Bashing-om: hi, i think the intel haswell hardware is too recent to be supported on older kernel/X stack .. just started following the channel so i haven't seen all info you have on Somelauw's situation, but might need to look at either a PPA like xorg-edgers or if he's on 12.04 adding the LTS stack from saucy [00:51] Hi. I'm running 13.10 on a desktop machine, with a USB wireless adapter. Adapter is being detected, but it's telling me it's forced-off by a hardware switch. [00:51] There's no switch. [00:51] My google-fu is lacking here [00:51] :) [00:52] glitsj16: everything seems to work except i can't figure out how to get xrandr to do what i want [00:52] aurynn, rub lsusb in the terminal to get the actual name to google with.

[00:56] Bashing-om: xrandr shows that output as well. It says everything but eDP1 is disconnected [00:57] Bashing-om: here is my messing around with xrandr: https://pastee.org/ruuet [00:57] glitsj16: Somelauw I can use all the help here I can get ! .. In new territory for me .. no Intel experience at all ! [00:58] Somelauw: Not a -> DVI-I-1: connected <- event ? [00:58] Bashing-om: me neither, but if i can throw in anything usefull i will :) .. is there a pastebin somewhere on the exact hardware Somelauw? [00:58] Looks like a driver issue === hdevalence is now known as hdevalence|away [00:58] Bashing-om: here the exact output of what you requested https://pastee.org/d95tt [00:58] And the advice is grab drivers from Realtek directly [00:58] which I shall attempt!

[01:18] Somelauw: likely 60hz [01:19] Ben64: Maybe, but spanking new hardware, might run at a real high refresh rate (??). [01:20] tapout: there are a few screenrecording apps in the repos, like kazam, gtk-recordmydesktop and simplescreenrecorder (you'd need a PPA for the latter i think) .. probably others, just putting out a few possible candidates [01:21] !screencast [01:21] Some programs to capture your screen are Kazam, Vokoscreen & Simple Screen Recorder.

[01:39] glitsj16: doesn't exit [01:39] there is conf.failsafe [01:39] Bashing-om: i'll take a look [01:39] Somelauw: i see, maybe you need to manually create one to put the correct resolution modes in [01:40] i need a name for my app, i'm having such a hard time coming to a name. someone give me one and i might just use it.

We know a driver is not loaded not is the disply detected. Why I have not the foggiest. [02:13] ClumsyFairyQueen, yes [02:13] odd [02:13] does adding the timezone help [02:14] should be a -0800 or something behind the date [02:14] Paste.Ubuntu.com/6882766 [02:14] depending on your timezone [02:14] awesome we got fairy's in here [02:14] UR BUGGIN [02:14] what the hells happening!!!!?!?!????? [02:14] So. [02:15] Bashing-om: replacing xorg didn't work. [02:15] k1l, the website is still pointing here [02:15] Bashing-om: i think i'll give up [02:15] s/replacing/creating [02:15] ClumsyFairyQueen, tried that and still the same error [02:17] Somelauw: New hardware, must be a solution, but this is much beyond my experience. More than willing to keep at it, see what I can come up with. Will you return later to this ? [02:17] Bashing-om, glitsj16: thanks for trying to help so far [02:19] wolfy1339, not sure then - looks the same as mine by any case [02:19] Somelauw: I am just mortified I can not be of more help . [02:21] Glitsj16 looks fine to me, do you see anything odd? [02:22] k1l you sure banning the web gateway is a good idea? [02:22] n0tryan: best idea atm due to the rotmg hacking issue [02:23] Flat4ForLife: around line 330-337 there's mention of hdparm setting a timeout of 3 minutes, looking at some more background on how you could test without that delay [02:23] I'd imagine the webchat would be used by the very people who'd come here to get help [02:23] 'not really other choice n0tryan [02:24] +r / +q $~a? [02:25] n0tryan: this is an temporary issue. please read about the incident. the channel is flooded with users complaining about rotmg if the ban is not set. please complain at rotmg for them to get their page hacked [02:30] What irc program is recommended for Ubuntu? I looked at the list and tried smuxi and it won't authenticate me [02:31] Bashing-om: do you happen to know if there's a tool to generate an xorg.conf for those intel GPU's? would be handy when trying to help out in situations like the one somelauw was having, nothing i need in a hurry, just a question :) [02:31] Flat4ForLife: xchat is fine as long as you dont use the xchat-gnome [02:31] OK thanks === Fomina is now known as c_j [02:32] Flat4ForLife: ah, i lost you for a sec, would you pastebin /etc/hdparm.conf? [02:32] hexchat is nice too [02:32] Yea sorry, tried smuxi and didn't work haha. [02:32] konversation if your using kde [02:33] Paste.Ubuntu.com/6882883 [02:34] glitsj16: TBH, integrated graphics is a whole new world to me .. and - I have very limited experience with Intel, This will not be forgotten and I will continue to see what I can learn. [02:37] Bashing-om: thanks, appreciate the situation, am in that same boat when it comes to those integrated chips, if i stumble on something usefull and our paths cross here, i'll share whatever i have [02:38] dafuq is this? [02:38] those from RotMG - site is infected, and is redirecting you here [02:38] hi [02:38] Flat4ForLife, try hexchat (hexchat.github.io) [02:38] wolfy1339, just installed it and thats what I'm on now. thanks! [02:39] glitsj16; One thing for sure, if one wants to know it is a never ending process ! Pick your target. [02:40] Flat4ForLife: hdparm conf looks clean, do you have any other tools installed to change disk spindown params ? [02:40] hello [02:41] glitsj16, not that im aware of. its a clean install with updates/ java JRE/SDK, android studio, and now hexchat. [02:41] Bashing-om: lol, that's what's so nice .. keeps me from boredom, but would be nice if i could upgrade my braincell once in a while, so much happening lately on the GPU driver side [02:41] sup [02:42] hi [02:42] zsw_: word. [02:42] word [02:43] im zack from yesterday [02:43] glitsj16, ill be back in a few [02:43] glitsj16: The last 2 years has been a wild ride, changes in grub, upstart, dkms .. and the list goes on. And yes ! Agreed, this system sure keeps me occupied. [02:43] 这么多人 [02:44] !cn | Zhaoliang [02:44] Zhaoliang: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [02:46] Flat4ForLife: okay, you could try editing the /etc/hdparm.conf and putting in a lower timeout (look at line 65 of your paste) .. you need to remove the # to overrule the default there, but keep a close eye on that before you keep it, messing with HDD params can cause damage .. to be honest i don't think your resume issue is caused by that [02:46] glitsj16, ok then lets not mess with that. no point in screwing something up [02:47] k1l: what do you mean? [02:47] Zhaoliang: that there is a special channel for chinese language ubuntu support [02:49] Flat4ForLife: not much risk in trying to edit it once to something like 12 instead of the default 24, just to see if it improves your resume, so at least you can rule it out if it doesn't .. edit it back to defaults afterwards [02:49] k1l: are you chinese? [02:50] Zhaoliang: no, you stated chinese in here. and now please stick to technical ubuntu support in here. we have #ubuntu-offtopic for chat [02:51] k1l: ah. Sorry [02:51] glitsj16, the line #spindown_time = 24, remove the comment and change to 12? [02:51] Flat4ForLife: you also mentioned that after login 'it freaks out again' .. can you elaborate a bit on what happens exactly after login? [02:51] Flat4ForLife: correct [02:52] after login, it shows the mouse but no desktop. then after a few seconds it flashses the screen, goes to a black screen with a flashing cursor, then a bit later it goes back to the login screen [02:52] Flat4ForLife: i'll let you do the edit and run a test suspend/resume .. we can pick things up after that [02:53] do i need to do anything for this to take effect such as a reboot, or does it read it upon suspend? [02:53] Flat4ForLife: no reboot needed no, it should read the conf [02:54] ok. ill try it now... [02:54] HMM === sysadmin__ is now known as VLanX [02:55] interesting [02:56] ping me! [02:56] ping === Sleepnbum is now known as Guest59153 [02:59] glitsj16, thats a no go [03:00] Flat4ForLife: well, undo the edit and set things in hdparm.conf back to defaults .. could i bother you one sec in PM? [03:00] however, when trying to resume it flashed a fast/long list of nouveau lines that looked like it said error [03:00] but it was going too fast to read [03:00] sure [03:03] I accidently formatted a disk that was part of a LVM2 group, now I can't seem fix the LVM2 volume, pvdisplay is giving me an error that it can't find a device with UUID ... , is there a way to remove that disk? It was /dev/sdb1 and now it tells me PV unknown device [03:03] does anyone have suggestions on why setting weight to a #mark form element, wouldn't change where it appears in the form? === jacky is now known as Guest74913 [03:03] whoops, wrong wind,w haha [03:05] hey guys, i just installed ubuntu minimal, and, added cinnamon ppa. slim, however, will not boot when set to default session. it says could not load the cinnamon session. how can i fix this? [03:05] hekzloaf: ask the PPA guys please === Fast[BDC] is now known as pcdummy [03:06] where would be the best place? cinnamon? [03:13] I can't figure out how to set the resolution for Lubuntu, so I will try Xubuntu. Hopefully that will be better. === jackyalc- is now known as jackyalcine [03:18] Is there a good utility for handling multibutton mice? [03:20] How many buttons we talkin'? [03:25] anyone have an idea as to why choosing the default Ubuntu from grub wont boot, but choosing the generic file from rEFInd will boot? [03:27] Flat4ForLife maybe try asking on #grub too [03:27] ok will do [03:33] does anyone here have experience in installing nokuntusp by any chance? === e^0 is now known as sudo [03:35] i tried installing it with apt-get but a number of dependencies come back as "not installable" and i was just wondering do i just need a different repo or do i have to install them all from source? === duoi_afk is now known as duoi [03:38] i'm using ubuntu with Qt Creator. Whenever I run my application, it always defaults to 0:0 ... how can I make the window always open near the center of the window? Is this something that the app has to call for X or ... is there a way to specify this in X foreach app? [03:40] greeter: are you using a third party repository for that package¿ [03:40] i'm not certain to be honest... i'm not all that bright when it comes to computers i'm afraid. i might be though [03:40] Mongo44, I think like 11 [03:41] Logitec G700s [03:41] Mongo44, If you toss me back a Response pls highlight me I've got irc buried behind a few windows. [03:43] hmm i did a quick search and it seems if i want gambas2 i won't be able to install it using apt-get === onder`_ is now known as onder` [03:52] hmm it seems nokutu is no longer maintained, so i guess installing it will just be plain difficult, if it's even possible === onder`_ is now known as onder` [03:57] Hi all. Does anyone know of a way to change all colors to shades of red for X? [04:02] superboot: do you have tired eyes¿ [04:02] If /usr/share/checkbox/scripts are missing, how do I install those? Is there a package for that? [04:03] superboot: something like this¿ http://jonls.dk/redshift/ [04:04] xangua: Yeah, haha. Oh, cool. Thanks! [04:14] nope, i guess there's no way to install it unless i compile everything from source. oh well [04:15] I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 on a Macbook 10,1. I tried to install the nvidia drivers, and now the GUI won't start. When I boot, the keyboard backlight comes on, and it gets as far as "Stopping Restore Sound Card State" but then it just sits there. If I press the power button, it shuts down fine. I can add "nomodeset" to the boot options to get to a TTY. What can I do to restore my GUI??? [04:16] zoidfarb, you will probably have to remove/purge the nvidia drivers and go back to nouveau [04:16] ive been fighting it myself on an older macbook and it just simply wont work [04:16] Flat4Life. I tried that already. I did `apt-get remove —purge nvidia*` [04:16] zoidfarb, did you check your blacklist files? and your xorg.conf? [04:18] Flat4ForLife, I haven't checked the blacklist file, where is it? I tried deleting all the xorg.conf files except the fallback one, to see if it would at least give me low graphics mode. [04:18] check in /etc/modprobe.d [04:18] there might be a blacklist.conf and a nvidia one as well [04:18] okay. In older Ubuntu, you could do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg … but that doesn't seem to do anything on 13.10 [04:18] it usually blacklists nouveau upon install [04:19] Flat4ForLife. That's a good thought, I'll check there. [04:22] when booting, if no xorg.conf file is found, it should generate a default/basic one. [04:22] is it generating one at all? [04:22] it didn't seem like it was. I'll try agin in a minute (I'm in OSX now) [04:23] ok, you may need to make a basic xorg.conf file [04:29] I'm trying to debug ntp, but if I stop the ntp service and run ntpd -gq it just hangs there forever. Where should I look? [04:29] If I start the ntp service, syslog says it starts ok and listens on all interfaces, but the time never updates. It's still 20 minutes ahead. [04:31] i need instructions on useing an app called aircrack.ng [04:31] there are many tutorials on google/youtube [04:33] i tried to look at one or two only thay were on to install [04:34] you need to look at more than "one or two", however this channnel is for ubuntu [04:35] im usein ubuntu [04:35] zsw_: you won't get any advice here. You need an aircrack channel [04:35] zsw_: Are you trying to break into somebody's wifi network? This isn't the right channel for that. [04:35] yes my frends as a dare [04:35] this is for ubuntu install/issues, not aircrack/airmon/pentesting or anything of that sorts [04:35] and that is illegal, btw [04:35] not if i have permition [04:35] zsw_: well, if you need help from us you failed your dare. Please take this your request elsewhere [04:36] Flat4ForLife: If his friend gave him permissions it's not [04:36] !ot [04:36] illegal and next to impossible if he's using WPA2 [04:36] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [04:36] wep [04:36] zoidfarb, true. i was assuming he was meaning to try a random one, not his friends. my bad [04:36] with WEP, you may be able to since aircrack_ng uses dictionary attack and other such common ones [04:36] !ot | agiworn [04:36] agiworn: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [04:37] Hi, I am having an issue with ufw on an OpenVZ VPS. If I enable ufw, then the system resolves hostnames to IPV6 hosts and hangs because it cannot contact them. If I disable ufw, it resolves using IPV4 addresses and everything works fine. What gives? [04:37] (on Debian 7 32 bits) [04:37] hfp: you need the ##debian channel. This is ubuntu support only [04:37] Flat4ForLife, Pen testing is not illegal if you have permission and are getting paid for it. [04:37] Psil0Cybin, refer to my last message [04:38] With WEP, you don't need a dictionary attack, you can do an ARP replay attack directly [04:38] somsip: Ok thanks I was under the impression this was also the channel for ufw [04:38] Hi. I'm trying to debug ntp, but if I stop the ntp service and run ntpd -gq it just hangs there forever. If I start the ntp service, syslog says it starts ok and listens on all interfaces, but the time never updates. It's still 20 minutes ahead. Where should I look? [04:38] hfp: no. It's the ubuntu support channel [04:38] im a white hat hacker aka non malicious only looking for security breaches [04:38] zsw_: this is offtopic. Please go elsewhere [04:38] zsw_: There's lots of docs online. Go read them. [04:39] h6w, are you sure your NTP server is set up correctly?

[04:59] hfp: did you try add ing alogfile? [04:59] greeter: Does your ISP have an ubuntu mirror? [04:59] yah just use ntpdate [05:00] i doubt it. they didn't even offer support for linux until last year [05:00] greeter must be joking. [05:00] Anyone willing to help me out? [05:00] somsip: I enabled logging, yes, but I don't see anything in the logfile [05:00] no. in canada most people it seems have never heard of linux [05:01] PFDW: "no server suitable for synchronization found" :-( [05:01] greeter:you should use start.ca [05:01] Ping ntp.pool.org seems ok.

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04. 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? [05:05] ^ It also hangs when I use other copying tools like rsync. [05:06] If I boot into Windows (I have both OSes installed), the problem is nonexistent (but of course, then I have to boot into Windows...).

[07:51] yto: no. What mail transport agent are you using in php.ini? [07:51] !blacklist | tomreyn [07:51] tomreyn: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist.conf and add « blacklist » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » [07:52] i've added the bluetooth modules to a custom files in /etc/modprobe.d/ a couple times, unfortunately these files seem to get cleared out occasionally [07:52] without notifying the user sadly [07:53] tomreyn: what is the trigger for them being cleared? [07:53] yes that'd be nice to know [07:54] maybe it's a modutils upgrade, maybe a distribution upgrade [07:55] somsip, see my php.ini file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6883892/ [07:55] tomreyn: maybe you need to re-blacklist them, and monitor for when they get removed.

[07:56] somsip, not working [07:56] somsip: thanks for trying. i guess i could install a HIDS or a custom inotify rule to get notified. [07:57] yto: then php can't use it to send emails. [07:58] tomreyn: yeah. Faffy though [07:58] somsip, how to find php use what php.ini file? [07:59] about php not sending mail, you might want to that this doesn't necessarily need to be provided by the _sendmail_ package, but there are other and probably better options [07:59] *want to add [07:59] yto: when running from the browser it will (probably) use /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and when running from command line it will use /etc/php5/cli/php.ini [07:59] tomreyn: his php.ini is currently setup to use sendmail. He needs to configure an MTA though, as you say [08:00] right [08:00] somsip, i need to install mail server on my linux? [08:00] if you want to send mail, a mails erver would be handy [08:00] yto: you need to install a MTA [08:00] !mta | yto [08:00] yto: A Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) is the server software that sends and queues mail.

[09:11] ikonia: Which sources ".xprofile" [09:11] MarkUpper: ok, so there you go then [09:12] and about the shop itself, I'd disable it by default unless the users explicitly state that they want it in the jome lens [09:12] Is that the problem for login failure? [09:12] why is /mount not there [09:12] *home [09:12] !pm > YoLtA [09:12] YoLtA, please see my private message [09:13] ikonia: But I had never problems with that.

[09:45] you've done what exactly? [09:46] bibi234, it's sees - something but if it saw "printer" it would ID it as such ... [09:47] makara: it is a really really bad idea to just disable dhclientif the DHCP server still thinks it is providing a dynamic IP to your machine [09:48] make sure you agree with the DHCP server's administrator, whether that's you or someone else [09:48] cfhowlett: do you mean this? /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Prolific_Technology_Inc._USB-Serial_Controller_D-if00-port0 === esven is now known as sven041 [09:49] it's a symlink to /dev/ttyUSB0 [09:49] Hey guys!

Or otherwise they have windows on a 320gb partition (and some dell backup(?) on the rest) S [10:21] trinode: use any other irc client, there are plenty of it. webchat is banned because of the rotmg site is hacked and directing users in here with webchat. so letting webchat in would disturb this channel and make suppor impossible [10:21] 3.8.0-29-generic [10:23] AndChat|477609: I'd copy the files changed by the user somewhere asap (using rsync) then install Ubuntu on the new disk and copy the files over [10:23] AndChat|477609, adding a new partition will confuse windows - not necessarily fatally but first time boot would surprise me [10:26] rp2, it's windows sadly and not my own. Also I don't have a windows 7 CD for it so if I can copy over without reinstalling that would be best. [10:27] cfhowlett, so would it be best to just copy this 320gb partition over unchanged? Do you think it would boot then? [10:28] AndChat|477609, so long as you don't muck with partitions, simple copy should work - dd is the command you want IIRC [10:28] eew [10:29] no idea how much info on which disk it is on is present in a Windows installation [10:29] it should probably be fine but I never tried this [10:29] cfhowlett, I have to muck with them as the new hard drive is smaller than the last one. So a full copy is not possible. But will copying a single partition with dd work? [10:29] AndChat|477609, but not rp2's suggestion [10:29] ? [10:30] to reinstall? [10:30] create a partition on the new disk that is exactly the same size and dd the old partition to the new one, yes that should work [10:30] AndChat|477609, I wouldn't copy the partition, I'd copy the data! In fact, I'd zip it first - I had to copy my 60 gigs of music between ubuntu/win7 - painful [10:30] helo [10:30] but it should probably be the *same* partition as well === Kryptron_ is now known as Kryptron [10:31] ie the same partition number once you swap out the two disks [10:31] rp2: you don't need to create a parition (on new drive) if you are using dd... [10:31] zykotick9: you do if you can't copy the whole disk [10:32] well [10:32] but I've never done this myself! [10:35] Ok. So I can probably just copy the whole partition over with gparted. I hope I'm right in thinking that that is what you suggested? I think I'll try that. [10:37] Just testing [10:37] AndChat|477609, would the source and cloned drives be used simultaneously in the system? [10:37] !test|ieb, [10:37] ieb,: Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use /join #test ) [10:38] varunendra no, the new one will replace the old [10:38] ah, no issues then :) [10:41] if a partition managed can do it, use that [10:41] manager [10:42] Is it likely for a bug report requesting the shopping lens be an "opt-in" feature would get much attention?

[11:10] Hi guys. Can someone help please. I want to disable a special warning which occurs during the start of squid via terminal. [11:10] starrats, first of all...you need to update your system [11:10] starrats, sudo apt-get update - sudo apt-get upgrade - sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [11:11] and then do: sudo apt-get install xchat [11:11] ah okay chemist [11:11] although i would use hexchat instead of xchat [11:11] it's better :) [11:12] the GUI looks almost exactly the same [11:13] i want to resize an ntfs partition, can i avoid the move step ? [11:13] After copying the partitions from the windows 7 hard drive across sadly it doesn't want to boot. I just get a white blinking cursor on boot.

[11:13] !apt | MAD_51 [11:13] MAD_51: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.

[11:14] MAD_51: that is not bringing to a new ubuntu release, see the documentation on apt-get [11:14] MAD_51, why shouldn't he? [11:14] question chemist you had 3 sudo apt-get update upgrad and dist upgrade , do I do all threee? [11:14] moving filesystem to left/right [11:14] yes in that order [11:14] ah okay [11:14] first you update your updates list (sudo apt-get update) [11:14] ok [11:15] then you upgrade [11:15] ok [11:15] (actual updating) [11:15] and then you do dist-upgrade which will bring you on 12.04.4 [11:15] ok [11:15] MAD_51: dist-upgrade is same as full-upgrade - it means upgrade EVERYTHING, a typical "apt-get update" does not. [11:15] ok [11:15] and then xchat [11:15] okay got it [11:16] starrats, every time you do "sudo apt-get update" ... your "Available updates list" gets updated [11:16] then you can sudo apt-get upgrade [11:16] to install available updates [11:16] thanks you very much chemist [11:16] MAD_51: sorry, a typical "apt-get upgrade" does not. [11:16] no problem [11:16] upgrade keeps you on the same release, dist-upgrade doesn't, if I recall correctly [11:16] starrats try and google for hexchat [11:17] starrats, i think you'll like it better than xchat [11:17] rp2: wrong [11:17] ok hexchat for linux [11:17] !dist-upgrade [11:17] A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed.

[11:18] starrats, no problem :) [11:18] here goes nothing, lol [11:18] ;) [11:19] starrats, there is a way to do both commands at the same time like this: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" ... without the quotes ("") [11:19] blah [11:19] he left [11:20] hmmm ... I learnt something new [11:20] if it never upgrades to a new release, I should be using dist-upgrade! [11:21] rp2, yes [11:21] :D [11:22] (i believe) the dist-upgrade, upgraded my system from 12.04 LTS to 12.04.4 LTS [11:22] so it's still the same release [11:23] apt-get upgrade cant install new kernels or other packages which need to install new packages (every kernel is a own package and not just overwrites the old one) [11:26] there is a webpage on this: http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.nl/2010/02/dist-upgrade-misnomer-confusion.html [11:28] Hi, can anyone help me with duplicity?

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ [12:46] (Sorry, flipflopped the two halfs the first time) [12:46] Ben64: I had to set file permission to 644 all the way up to the /home [12:46] Ben64: Does that have any security threat? [12:46] rackisland: you can't have the folders as 644 and work [12:46] hello. I just replaced my Motherboard, CPU, and GPU and now Ubuntu won't boot. I've been trying in recovery mode, but the line that everything stops on isn't the same each time [12:47] Ben64: I don't get you [12:47] Reliant, you've changed the internals. reinstall [12:47] rackisland: folders need to be 755 [12:47] I asked in here before doing it, and I was told that it'd work just fine :( [12:48] Reliant, all the settings are for a specific gpu/cpu and configuration which you've changed... and you expect it NOT to hiccup? [12:48] Reliant: it does work just fine in most circumstances [12:48] Ben64: OK I have set /home/rackisland -R to 755 [12:48] rackisland: no.... [12:49] rackisland: folders are to be 755, files 644 [12:49] Ben64: Ah, ok. thanks :) [12:50] how do I can install .deb file using temrinal ? [12:50] Reliant: what was your specs before and now [12:50] AMD 64-bit NVIDIA -> Intel 64-bit NVIDIA [12:50] interweb: dpkg -i file.deb, but you should make sure you want to install it. some packages from outside ubuntu can cause problems [12:50] Internet13: use dpkg -i but be aware you loose the updates and support from ubuntu when doing so [12:52] Reliant: ah, i bet its the amd->intel switch, i've never tried that, i'm an amd guy. [12:52] It's my first Intel since the pre-Ghz Celeron === esven is now known as sven041 [12:53] I thought AMD -> Intel would be an issue, which is why I was in here about a week ago or so asking in advance [12:54] Reliant: can you get to a recovery console? [12:54] that way you could remove the nvidia drivers [12:55] I have a "Grub Recovery Disc" and my 13.04 install disc [12:55] Reliant: I mean if you hold shift when you boot, you should be able to choose recovery console [12:55] the (Recovery) option for the various kernals already installed all fail [12:55] ahh [12:55] hmm alright [12:55] 13-04 is EOL since January 27, 2014 [12:56] Reliant: So the boot halts altogether? [12:56] I'm at the Grub bootloader where I can choose my kernel === Tux` is now known as NeverHere [12:56] hateball: yes [12:57] and it doesn't always halt at the same spot [12:57] holding shift doesn't seem to do anything [12:58] your initrd will lack some components required for the new hardware to work properly. or you moved your disks around and partitions are not referenced by UUIDs in your fstab [12:59] tomreyn: wouldn't that give a very specific and predictable error? I've had that issue before [12:59] Reliant: Well that is just to get you to grub menu if it normally "just boots" [12:59] hateball: ahh. well, I don't need shift in that case. Grub comes up normally [12:59] or it's the wrong grub variant or an outdated grub. and there are a buinch more options. reinstalling sounds like a good idea. you don't need to loose your data that way [13:00] Still think you should be able to boot to a tty with VESA support without any problems [13:00] hateball: how do I do that? [13:01] Reliant: you can edit the grub bootline and add "nomodeset" to it, without the "" ofc [13:01] as well remove "quiet splash" should it be present [13:02] the edit gives me many lines. I added nomodeset to its own line, and got a bad command error [13:03] Reliant: should edit the line that starts with linux. if you have a recovery line selected that should also be on the same line [13:04] ahh, ok [13:04] however looking at my own grub.cfg I see the recovery options already have nomodeset set by default [13:05] yes, mine too [13:05] it could be related to NVIDIA's binary drivers since, while it doesn't always stop at the same line, it does always stop very shortly after the drivers are loaded [13:06] is there a grub command line to avoid loading modules? [13:06] Reliant: you could try adding "modprobe.blacklist=nvidia-current" [13:07] I don't recall if that is indeed the module name... [13:07] as a parameter to linux? [13:07] Reliant: Yes [13:08] Reliant: I don't have any nvidia machine nearby, it might be the module is named just nvidia and not nvidia-current [13:08] I've tried both. Seeing if Google has ideas on the module name [13:10] I just noticed that running sudo apt-get update doesnt yield any found new updates whereas muon update manager does. Is this a bug? [13:11] Reliant: You could also edit the grub Recovery menu item to have "init=/bin/bash" ... that'll prevent the upstart init deamon from starting and give you a bash shell. That may be enough to then read the log files from the failed boot attempts, I'd be looking at "/var/log/kern.log", "/var/log/dmesg", and "/var/log/syslog" [13:11] chemist not sure at this point if I like the install I made. Ubuntu 12-4-3LTS with all the updates. [13:11] xforks_: it is sudo apt-get upgrade that reports on possible new updates, the wording might be confusing you here [13:13] Reliant: hmmm, perhaps my syntax is wrong.... I googled a bit, it could be "nvidia.blacklist=yes" [13:13] Reliant: or whatever the module name is [13:13] glitsj16, i ran the command and it didn't find anything new. Then when i open muon update manager, there's a whole load of updates :( [13:13] http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/24670/choose-at-grub-menu-whether-nvidia-driver-should-be-used matches with what you said, but doesn't work. I'm trying the init=/bin/bash === mint_ is now known as Filar [13:15] hello [13:15] Hi, can somebody please direct me how to order the execution of startup applications in Ubuntu 12.04? [13:15] Reliant: if you get some form of shell, hopefully you can remove the nvidia-drivers and have the kernel rebuild. good luck :) [13:16] I couldn't get init=/bin/bash to work [13:16] I'm trying to test my hdd for errors with GSmartControl, but it has stopped at 90% with ETA 0 sec. Should I wait or has it frozen for ever? [13:16] I'm not happy with doing 3-hour test again. [13:17] this is a strange one. I put in my 13.04 install disc, choose to install, and that doesn't work either [13:18] xforks_: not familiar with muon, what does "sudo apt-get --dry-run dist-upgrade" do? [13:19] Filar: do you suspect the disk is failing? [13:22] gordonjcp: yes, I am. My system doesn't start and returns some "ata1.00" errors (I can show a photo). I have to check if it's hdd error for sure, because the warranty service may charge me with the costs of transport and diagnostics. The computer runs well from flash drive, though. [13:22] yes, I do* [13:22] :P [13:24] gordonjcp: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1zwaevtarwmglgu/2014-01-28%2009.10.38.jpg <- this is the photo of the errors [13:25] linux mint != ubuntu [13:25] and yes looks like a hardware error [13:26] Filar: stop wasting time, the drive is knackered [13:26] Filar: buy a new one and back up *now* [13:27] Filar, and got to mint for mint support [13:27] gordonjcp: thank you for help, the data is not so imprtant for me now, I just wanted to know for sure that it's a hardware error === esven is now known as sven041 [13:28] cfhowlett: can you tell me the difference between mint and ubuntu other than gui? [13:28] Filar: that is an absolutely classic example of a hardware error [13:28] Filar, great question! for the #ubuntu-offtopic channel. [13:28] Filar: textbook stuff right there [13:28] ok :P [13:32] how do i check if my serverr are in 64 bit or 32bit? does it shows in /proc/cpuinfo? [13:32] arcsky: uname -a [13:32] arcsky: /proc/cpuinfo will tell you if your CPU can do 64-bit [13:33] arcsky: if you want to know if the system installed is 64 bit or 32 bit, I usually run: file /bin/bash and see if bash is a 32 bit ELF or 64 bit ELF [13:34] The 13.04 install disc doesn't work for me at all. Can't install, and can't even "try without installing". I'm downloading 13.10 to see if that one will work [13:34] geirha: i /bin/bash does show any elf [13:35] arcsky: ''file /bin/bash'' file is a command that gives you information about the content of a file [13:36] Reliant, your desktop is new ? some desktops runs better with 64bits. and old ones (less then 2gb mem) just run 32bit install. [13:36] Reliant: can we a get a bit more information? "doesnt work" isn't enough information required to determine the problem [13:37] is it possible to show video thumbnails in ubuntu on a mounted (windows) disk? [13:37] bumbar: the disk type won't matter; it's probably set to not show thumbnails on network drives . there is a settng for that in file manager [13:40] Hi I changed a setting in the compiz manager from ubuntu to fooo and now unitys crashed and i cant get a terminal window open to reset it [13:40] fieranna, i'm using nautilus and under preferences > preview (tab) i've set to always to show thumbnails for files but doesn't seem to be working [13:41] fieranna: all I get is a black screen [13:41] bumbar: Have you checked you can read/play the files? It might be a video codec problem or somesuch that is related to the file itself, or file permissions [13:42] Reliant: This is with a new motherboard, CPU, GPU? Are you starting to suspect bad hardware (configuration) yet? [13:42] TJ-: No. It boots into Windows just fine [13:43] I'm suspecting that maybe something is too new for 13.04 to support it. [13:43] Reliant: It is *very* unusual for Linux not starting at all, even hobbled, in Recovery mode. [13:43] Reliant: So whenever you boot from the ubuntu ISO, you get a black screen. that is quite unusual? [13:43] the OS in recovery mode gets part way. The install disc gets nowhere [13:43] Reliant: is this haswell? [13:43] fieranna: yeah [13:44] Reliant: i've had some problems with haswelll, yea. as you say try the 13.10 [13:44] Reliant: When you said earlier that "init=/bin/bash" "didn't work"... did it not get to a bash shell? did it seem to ignore the setting? or something else? [13:44] TJ-: It produced an unusual error message. I don't remember what exactly. [13:44] !nomodeset | Reliant [13:44] Reliant: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [13:45] Trying to use ./configure and it says permission denied? [13:45] nomodeset is already there as part of (recovery) in grub [13:45] tatoma: I haven't gotten to a command line [13:45] OerHeks: have you ever seen the livecd require nomodeset? isn't it set by default? [13:45] tatoma: We don't do "configure" on Ubuntu; it's "debian/rules build" :) [13:45] fieranna, sure, it is not default, but an option under F6 key [13:46] It is in the tutorial for ubuntu though [13:46] fieranna, i can play files just fine, seems i was missing some packages, listed in the anwser here http://askubuntu.com/questions/160971/cant-generate-thumbnails-in-nautilus [13:46] OerHeks: Ah my mistake, it was under the older liveCDs. I had to nomodeset after installing 12.04 LTS [13:46] geirha: ok it was 32bit, but how do i know if it can be installed with 64bit? [13:46] fieranna, working now, thanks for your time [13:47] bumbar: Ah as i said, codecs. INice to see it's working ow [13:47] tatoma: What are you trying to build?

Why do you want to see the remote desktop?

I was asking myself If maybe the upload on his side is to low? [14:26] hitsijiTMO: I had to topen a folder on the dektop [14:26] adac: ahh I see, thats cool :) [14:26] then navigate to /usr/bin and run the xterm file [14:27] adac: possibly, have you tried with a non-compoziting desktop session like LXDE? [14:27] adac, for desktop sharing it uses vino, which should just work [14:27] Swervz: ok, try using: ctrl + alt + t to get up gnome-terminal. try running: unity --reset there or: dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ [14:27] Swervz: i wonder if xterm isn't loading some particular envvar [14:28] Oh i cant get he gnome terminal up, it was the first thing i tried but the terminal shortcut isnt working [14:28] hi peeps, i've been trying for a few days to get fog-server running on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS [14:28] its why i was using xterm [14:28] it runs, but i can't resolve external DNS names [14:28] i mean like www.google.com and stuff [14:28] nslookup works [14:28] Swervz: another question: did you run ccsm with sudo?

[14:31] TinoDidriksen: ah nvm [14:31] i tried ccsm and it didnt work [14:31] Swervz: sudo is not to be used for GUI apps, use gksudo [14:31] ActionParsnip, tnx for the input but it doesnt work :( [14:32] SwedeMike: don't sudo ccsm. i was just wondering if you ran that as it could have caused the break [14:32] Swervz: if you use 'sudo ccsm' it will edit root's settings, not yours [14:32] unknown host === stephen is now known as Guest41704 [14:32] ok [14:32] ActionParsnip, kk :) How much upload speed would you say is needed at minimum? [14:32] Swervz: also ccsm is KNOWN to break things, there is even a warning when you first run it [14:32] Swervz: any output of: cat ~/.dmrc | grep Session [14:32] k1l_, oh crap, I just figured it out...the reboot to clean up /boot knocked out the NS resolver settings... [14:32] adac: if you connect to the server with the lowest visual settings it may help speed things up [14:32] ActionParsnip, shouldn't i use 'dns-nameserver' instead of nameserver? [14:32] adac: are you using vnc over the web? [14:33] JenZbe: not in resolv.conf, no [14:33] hitsijiTMO: no [14:33] ActionParsnip, I did that as well setting the lowest settings via remmina but no luck. Yes via web [14:33] adac: I hope you are doing it through an SSH tunnel [14:33] Swervz: nano ~/.dmrc anything in that file at all?

I have managed (no clue how) to break my access to software center, and a few other things. So, I have to reinstall Ubuntu.Is there a way to do so without a CD or thumbdrive? So I don't have to run out and buy any. [14:53] Hi, we are using Ubuntu 12.04 x64 on Amazon EC2. Our issue is that in the vpc instance when we add a second ENI (network adapter) we loose connection to the instance at times when we reboot the instance or start from shutdown. In the boot log it appears the instance fails to obtain an IP from dhcp for either of the adapters. The only solution we have to gain access to the instance is to remove the second ENI and reboot the server.... Some [14:54] hitsujiTMO no but i have a second account [14:54] We are contacting Amazon for support but I also want to reach out to the Ubuntu community for any help on this matter. I know it is really odd to explain and understand that is why we are stumped by this [14:54] Swervz: is that second account working? [14:54] it is repoducalbe also... as it is not happened with a specific instance .. we have a Windows server with two ENI adapters that is not having the same problems in the same subnet [14:55] yes [14:57] I realize it's an absurdly low level question, but it would be great if someone could give me a pointer ;) [14:58] hitsujiTMO, yes it is [14:59] Swervz: all I can think of is recreate your home directory then: from your effected account: sudo mv $HOME /tmp/oldhome; sudo mkdir -p $HOME; sudo chown $USER:$USER $HOME; sudo mv /tmp/oldhome $HOME/oldhome [14:59] Thanks... [14:59] Swervz: wait soory [15:00] hi all [15:00] sorry, noob again [15:00] hola que tal? [15:00] why do I get directory not empty for rm -r dir/ [15:00] ? [15:01] -f ? [15:01] still same result [15:01] Swervz: all I can think of is recreate your home directory then: from your effected account: sudo mv $HOME /tmp/oldhome; sudo cp -r /etc/skel $HOME; sudo chown $USER:$USER $HOME; sudo mv /tmp/oldhome $HOME/oldhome [15:01] i need to install my new intellinet 300n pci card on 12.04, but can't get it to work [15:01] sudo rm -rf? [15:01] will that wipe my files? [15:01] still same [15:01] anyone that can help? [15:01] Vivekananda: probaby domething not owned by you or something with the wrong permissions along the way. try -rf [15:01] :( [15:01] Swervz: no your files will be in ~/oldhome you just need to migrate them back [15:02] SunTsu: I tried all three : rm -r , rm -rf , sudo rm -rf all give the same error [15:02] ok [15:03] Vivekananda: then either do ls -lR or find -exec ls -l {} \; [15:03] one thing is i cant remmeber how you set profiles in ccsm [15:03] Vivekananda: does a file in that directory hane an undeletable attribute?

[15:06] and also why do I get directory not empty ? [15:07] Hey guys anyone that uses Xubuntu 12.04 by any chance know where the file is saved that is taken during the initial install with the webcam..someone suggested that it is located within ~/.face but I do not have that file...thus am confused, but am almost certain that the installer took a picture from the webcam I would like to remove. [15:07] Vivekananda: I told you already: "lsattr", and if a file still exists the directory is not empty, right? [15:07] Vivekananda: simple, immutable and append-only extended attribute => man chattr [15:07] perhaps somebody who knows me on here is prepared to help with this... [15:07] locallly I only know windows wizz ppl.... [15:07] Vivekananda: and don't let's talk about all the security enhanced designs that castrate root, ... [15:08] !ask | frybye [15:08] frybye: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily).

[15:11] yacc: so security enhanced designs have castrated root ? I did not know that . so how then should I delete such files in the future if I want to ? if even root cannot do it ? [15:11] VLanX: I am using OTRS [15:11] vlanx have you heard about osticket? [15:11] SunTsu: I ran lsattr and it goes in non ending loop [15:11] Vivekananda: lsattr not ls. looks like .fuse_hidden0001620d0000000d is locked, open, undeletable, immutable or somethign else [15:12] hitsujiTMO: so I do lsattr .fuse ... is it ? [15:12] what is the argument is give to lsattr ? [15:12] Can someone help? Ubuntu broke my firefox. [15:12] Vivekananda: do lsattr -a adt-bundle-linux-x86-20131030/sdk/platform-tools/ === reeed_ is now known as reeed [15:13] hateball: is OTRS free? [15:13] I have more information on what is going on but not wanting to flood the channel.... msg me if anyone has experience with amazon EC2 that might be able to help figure out what is going on and why we can't reliably boot Ubuntu 12.04 with two network adapters attached set to dhcp. the boot log will show that the interfaces fail to obtain an IP .. sometimes it boots other times it will not.. [15:13] SunTsu: https://gist.github.com/vvikramjhu/8845971 [15:13] dennis_: never heard of it [15:13] hi [15:14] That fixed it thanks. [15:14] Also what does lsattr do and what should I do for such problems in the future ? [15:14] Vivekananda: also try: sudo lsof adt-bundle-linux-x86-20131030/sdk/platform-tools/ [15:14] ikonia, wtf [15:14] Owner: ?

I was suprised when it worked in that and i never managed to get it to work in gentoo. [15:24] Vivekananda: do you have an android device connected atm? [15:24] right now i need to find the latest non-pae kernel for the i686 platform [15:24] version for no sound issue?

[15:28] :D [15:28] I would advice you to stay on 12.04 for now :) [15:28] so only 12.10 supports non-pae cpus (mine is a geode) ... which image do i use..

[15:31] @Vivekananda what do you want to accomplish? [15:31] sound looping? :) [15:31] Yes. [15:32] All kinds of weird sound loops are going through my mind [15:32] anyways [15:32] glippi: delete the stupid directory. adt ... / in the gist [15:32] sound loop, what did you do to get this? [15:33] SunTsu: I deleted the fuse daemon by trying ps ax | grep gvfs and then deleting the one which says gvfs-fuse ... [15:33] killing sorry [15:33] I will reinstall. [15:33] still the same error what do I do next ? [15:33] I will not update. [15:33] it keeps breaking my dell [15:33] Vivekananda: if you would do "sudo rm -R -i *directory*" [15:34] Vivekananda: the -i will prompt you y/n on child dirs [15:34] or every [15:34] How can I tell if there are any compatibility issues between my comp and printer? It installed the printer without any trouble, and send the print job to the printer, but the first time now I'm trying to print something, I have the status "Processing - Not connected?" and the printer is sitting connected to the network turned on in another room not doing anything, suggesting a communications error? [15:34] can't remember, but if that does not work..... you have no power there :D [15:34] It's an EPSON WorkForce 600 type printer. [15:35] demophobia, installing a printer and defining the correct printer are too different things [15:35] So I may not have installed the printer correctly? It seemed to have detected it automatically so I just "went with it" ... [15:35] :D [15:35] I think you might want to look where it automagically fucked up ;) [15:36] viewing attributes, 'job-printer-state-message' is "Unable to find printer." [15:36] Vivekananda: lsof /media/Yojimbo | grep fuse [15:36] nope not helpful [15:37] too much text, and too many screens, getting dizzy [15:37] Hey guys I have a wierd issue, when I have my head phones into my laptop my laptop plays music from the headphone jack (so I can listen to through the head phones) and the computer speakers...is that a hardware thing or a software thing? I am looking around in pauvucontrol but i cannot find a way to just mute the computer speakers and not the audio jack. [15:37] SunTsu: lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/varun/.gvfs Output information may be incomplete. [15:38] same with sudo [15:38] After I did "gnome --replace" I can't do a relogin. Re-Login fails. Why is that? [15:38] Sound issue? We were at looping right? [15:39] Dir remove issue? What message are you getting when running the rm -R command? [15:39] I am not good with names and all.... sorry if I offend anyone [15:40] Vivekananda: very strange. I'd probably boot into single user runlevel and kill that pesky thing from there [15:41] Psil0Cybin: This may help http://askubuntu.com/questions/135804/want-sound-only-to-headphones-when-it-plugged-in-and-in-speakers-else [15:41] sudo su then run remove dir command [15:41] if that does not work, you are doing something wrong :D [15:41] SunTsu: how do I do that ? [15:41] glippi: we did all that, some really long time ago [15:41] boot into single user runlevel ? [15:42] should I try booting from a live usb ? [15:42] hi is there a way to tell how long a "dd " command will take? [15:42] DJones, my problem is just slightly different the speakers work but always, even if the head phones are in.

[15:43] no sudo? [15:43] well... there is your problem [15:43] nono asking if he can or cannot [15:43] glippi: please stop assuming, because there's a sentence about assuming [15:43] I know [15:43] there is also something said about being an ass [15:44] excognac: kill -USR1 `pidof dd` [15:44] DJones, my problem is like this http://askubuntu.com/questions/150887/sound-from-both-headphones-and-speakers I just do not like using PPAs to solve my issue. [15:44] glippi: read the backlog, thanks. And until then stop assuming [15:44] have you actually read the art of war? :D [15:44] Psil0Cybin: Thats linked from a bug report about the same problem, suggest to add the line to alsa-base.conf and then run alsa mixer & there should be an auto-mute mode setting [15:44] hitsujiTMO: but it won't kill dd itself, right: [15:44] SunTsu: that is complicated a bit [15:45] also even if I boot in what do I kill [15:45] alright i will try it is that explained in the tutorial you linked? DJones [15:45] excognac: no sends USR1 signal, not kill signal [15:45] I guess I will try live cd [15:45] Psil0Cybin: yes its explained [15:45] but gosh this is too much. a simple rm -R requiring all this !!

Sounds quite fubar. [15:49] This is fun.... irc changed so much :) === gjohnson__ is now known as gjohnson [15:49] no the IRC it self, the people [15:50] Vivekananda: you probably need to turn off power and restart it [15:50] flash player === GTB3NW_AWAY is now known as GTB3NW [15:50] okay doing it now [15:51] DJones, i did that [15:51] but nothing changed [15:52] How down new flash player and [15:52] Psil0Cybin: That was my only suggestion, hopefully somebody else will have a few suggestions [15:55] DJones, okayu this is my problem exactly http://askubuntu.com/questions/325314/sound-in-speakers-and-headphones-at-same-time [15:55] with my laptop model [15:59] Psil0Cybin: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh --upload [16:00] no one by any chance know anything of cantivo... no?

[16:01] vm deployment [16:01] Vivekananda: there was some stray fuse process accessing it [16:01] glippi: site only has RPMs [16:01] SunTsu: yes but I am not sure how that happenned [16:01] !ActionParsnip: I know, cantivo has no KB, FAQ or anything like that :) [16:01] glippi: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [16:01] the only thing out of ordinary that happenned was the eclipse had force closed once or twice [16:01] ActionParsnip: I know, cantivo has no KB, FAQ or anything like that :) [16:02] Vivekananda: that's why I despise all that automagic stuff it really can fsck things up [16:02] automagic ? [16:02] you mean eclipse ? [16:02] quit [16:02] Vivekananda: yeah, mounting daemons and stuff [16:02] Also while I am here I have two or three other issues about ubuntu 12.04 that I want to sort out [16:03] ActionParsnip, this guy says to remove ALSA http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1551184 [16:03] 1. the avant window manager just disappears after a while from the side [16:03] do you think that makes sense? [16:03] ActionParsnip: So it is setup, I am currently trying to deploy a windows vm, but it does not seem to give me any slack or debuggable output [16:04] 2. for a window when I say " move to another workspace : workspace 2 " the window will disappear never to be found . [16:04] So cantivo is deployed, got LDAP working, but so far I do not seem to be able to deploy or boot any VM's within cantivo [16:04] may I request help for those two issues [16:04] ActionParsnip: So cantivo is deployed, got LDAP working, but so far I do not seem to be able to deploy or boot any VM's within cantivo [16:05] Hello all [16:05] hi dmrom [16:06] im having a issue with a script and wondering how to fix it [16:06] what I am doing is setting up a backup and restore script that is ran from the client [16:07] I have the backup script working the issue is that I dont know how to restore using rsync from the client. [16:07] LibreOffice Writer failed to display a docx file properly ... Should I check to see if a bug's been filed? Or there any setting I should check to fix such compatibility problems? [16:07] failed to both display and print [16:08] (though really just the formatting problem) [16:08] demophobia: version of libre? [16:09] demophobia: docx is a prop. microsoft format. better ask libreoffice direct what to do and how the chances are to support that [16:09] 3.5.7.2 [16:09] demophobia: realistically, that's just going to happen :/; I think they're aware of the formatting bugs, because each release comes with updates to the filter. [16:09] demophobia: that is a fairly old libreoffice, btw, newer versions handle it a bit better. [16:09] They just released libreoffice 4.2 [16:09] but i'm installing the updates ubuntu sends me :/ why wouldn't it update automatically? [16:09] demophobia: libreoffice isn't 100% compatible wirh .docx. kingsoft office has better support [16:10] why doesn't ubuntu use kingsoft instead then? [16:10] s/ubuntu/canonical (?) [16:10] because kingsoft has other problems [16:10] like.. it's not open source, it's not fully translated, it's buggier than libre, and it doesn't *export* docx well [16:10] and it doesn't support opendocument texts. [16:10] demophobia: kingsoft is still in alpha atm. itys installed by default in ubuntu kylin tho [16:10] what's new feature in 14.04? [16:10] it reads docx better, but that's about it. [16:11] what I want to do is run the script from the client and then execute rsync fromthe server to the client [16:11] ok thank you [16:11] !trusty | jokeart1 [16:11] jokeart1: Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) will be the 20th release of Ubuntu. See the announcement at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1295 for more info. support in #ubuntu+1 [16:11] demophobia: if you want a newer version of libre, you'll need to find it in a PPA or something. [16:11] even though it comes with ubuntu by default?? [16:11] demophobia: ubuntu tries to keep the updates stable until the next release. [16:12] it's not always the most updated distro as a result. [16:12] PPA's are more updated then what comes in the iso [16:12] demophobia: You can only be sure you are going to see the file exactly equal using M$ Word and be sure with the same version of M$ Word, because M$ doesn't warrant the same look with different version [16:13] yeah; the docx format is pretty poor. there is the open docx format, then the MS implementation of it which moves with each msoffice release. [16:13] in a nutshell [16:13] so even between 2007 and 2013, msoffice will render its own format differently. [16:13] wouldn't happen if they actually abided by their *own* open standard, but hey, that's ms [16:13] standards are ment to be broken [16:14] only in the sense of being 'raised' to something better ;) [16:14] demophobia: you can update standards. [16:14] they don't. [16:14] :D [16:14] they add in msoffice-only extensions to the standard, which aren't documented :p... not quite the same thing. [16:14] having standards and applying to them are too different things [16:15] glippi: how is this ubuntu related when the application doesnt run on Ubuntu? [16:15] I am finding that Windows is making my life much easeir with asymetric networking... it just works. two nics in the same subnet with dhcp both are setup with a gateway sorry had to vent ;) [16:15] glippi: he was asking about docx [16:15] pseubodot: you will need alsa for sound [16:15] er, ActionParsnip * [16:15] I will? [16:15] of course I will. [16:15] ActionParsnip: I have it running on ubuntu [16:15] but I think you meant someone else. :) [16:15] glippi: did you alien the RPMs? [16:16] hey guys i am having this issue with my new lenovo g700 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/477226 is there anything else i can do other then trying PPA"s and running scripts from other websites? to self diagnose the issue? [16:16] Launchpad bug 477226 in linux (Ubuntu Lucid) "Sound simultaneously on headphones and speakers - Lenovo IdeaPad u350" [High,Won't fix] [16:16] !info cantivo [16:16] Package cantivo does not exist in saucy [16:16] my sound plays both from speakers and the headphone jack which is very odd [16:16] Psil0Cybin: did you run the command I gave? [16:17] I am going to wait and see if something is going to happen in the cantivo channel, so many haters here :) [16:18] no i did not because I am unfamiliour with what that script does so I am worried, to download things from offline or you think its trustworthy? [16:18] just going to monitor this for personal enjoyment [16:20] * glippi ? [16:20] ActionParsnip, what was the command again [16:22] The solution to my printer communications error was to turn the printer off then back on, so it would reconnect to the network. Problem was EPSON, not canonical. Thanks. :) [16:22] demophobia: Thanks for solution feedback [16:23] ActionParsnip, I lost the command you gave me , I am missing scroll back [16:24] Psil0Cybin: it was: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh --upload [16:24] "/lastlog" ;) [16:24] codex: thanks [16:25] np [16:25] bye [16:26] ActionParsnip, http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9b5adea61317b7afca21e6ca46055515b848c02a [16:26] is someone able to help me get my network connections bridged ? [16:27] hi [16:28] join the chat room took more than 20 seconds with empathy :O [16:28] ActionParsnip, that is the information you wanted me to display to you...that was posted after running the shell script. [16:28] leptom: empathy? === Guest59153 is now known as Sleepnbum [16:29] I have one problem with my ubuntu 13.10, so often performance is degradated [16:29] At the beginning I thought it was by the ati graphic card [16:30] I was using fglrx/catalyst driver (ubuntu official and also from amd) [16:30] I was tweaking kernel parameters [16:30] but nothing [16:31] glippi, yw [16:31] With top/htop load average I only see it goes up but not swapping, excessive I/O or CPU load but today I discovered something interesting with hdparm -tT [16:31] Hey guys nayone know how I can get my speakers to mute when headphones are plugged into my laptop , this is all my sound card information http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9b5adea61317b7afca21e6ca46055515b848c02a [16:31] Try running sudo service alsa-restore restart manually and see if your card shows with aplay -l command. If it does, restart pulseaudio and sound should be working properly. [16:32] when system is ok hdparm -tT gives me 5800MB/sec of cache reads but if the system is laggy it gives me 1000MB/sec [16:32] do you have any pointer? [16:32] leptom, This is support be specific with your needs and stick to one issue at a time. This is not a proclaim your troubles channel. [16:33] Beldar: ouch! [16:33] sorry [16:33] Boas [16:33] sorry then :) [16:33] Hi, I've got a weird wireless problem on 13.10 -- my wireless connection disconnects and disappears intermittently, but I can see all the other wireless networks nearby [16:33] When I disable/reenable Wifi, it finds it again and reconnects [16:33] leptom, No biggie, we are here to help if we can. [16:33] jayteebee: What wireless device do you have? (what is the output of "lspci | grep Net" [16:34] q [16:34] Sorry if I just dumped garbage into the room, it just happened :P [16:34] ActionParsnip, have time to look over the information by ahny chance? [16:34] Intel 7260 [16:35] jayteebee: What version of Ubuntu are you using? (what is the output of "cat /etc/issue" ? ) [16:35] jayteebee: Oh 13.10 [16:36] Rory: I've got the latest firmware from git.kernel.org [16:36] jayteebee: Does this occur with other wireless networks? Or only the one [16:37] Hai [16:37] Rory: I haven't tried other networks, but it doesn't happen with other devices on this network [16:37] I'm looking to backup non-system files from my mac os x partition on my dual boot ubuntu/mac macbook [16:37] Basically the os x side broke, and it's time I reinstalled the os, so I'm looking to backup all the files to an external drive (from ubuntu), so that I can restore them to os x later [16:38] Rory: Everywhere else I'm wired [16:38] So I'm wondering, what's the best way to do it and what is the best fs for the external hdd? [16:38] anyone here a bash guru [16:38] the best fs is anything that both systems can read [16:38] fat32 usually is a safe bet when you have files not larger then 4.3 gb [16:38] !anyone | dbrom [16:38] dbrom: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. [16:39] yeah but I don't neccesarily have to restore from os x glippi [16:39] basically just looking for the most efficient format to copy/paste files (over 4.3gb at times) without breaking rights and permissions [16:40] so you do have files over 4.3 gb [16:40] yeah [16:40] linux can write NTFS, mac can read [16:40] id like to to do the following from a client computer : ssh to the server thten run rsync -a /mnt/V1/folder /home/$USER [16:40] hi [16:41] sasha-: you can read with mac os x ext2/3 files (you need to install macos fuse) [16:41] ok, and which method should i use to clone the user folders? [16:41] mac can read NTFS drives with no problem, writing can be... so for backup and restore with files larger then 4.3GB and you have no need before the backup to write files from OSX to drive..... NTFS [16:41] using the ssh user@ip && doesnt work [16:41] Hey guys nayone know how I can get my speakers to mute when headphones are plugged into my laptop , this is all my sound card information http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9b5adea61317b7afca21e6ca46055515b848c02a [16:41] leptom: ok I'll use that then. But which method should I use? I was thinking of just rsyncing my home folder to the external hard drive [16:42] which options should I use to avoid damaging partitions and also to show progress? [16:42] ciao a tutti [16:43] ciao ragazzi sono nuovo come va [16:43] !it | pinopc [16:43] pinopc: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) [16:44] grazie ciao [16:44] sash: I guess rsync could be enough or if you don't like the terminal with ubuntu comes an application call dejadup (correct me if I''m wrong) [16:44] you can use rsync sasha when you chose the FS :) [16:44] Psil0Cybin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure run the large command in step 1 here and reboot [16:44] join ubuntu.it [16:45] nah but I have no issue with using the command line [16:45] sasha-: grsync is a nice GUI for rsync [16:46] okay [16:46] i will try ActionParsnip [16:46] ActionParsnip, I get this [16:46] rm: cannot remove `/home/psil0cybin/.config/pulse/*': No such file or directory [16:46] I was thinking more like rsync -avAX --progress [16:46] from the first line in the tutorial. [16:47] sasha-: Then try first to read and write ext2/3 with mac os x with osxfuse or macosfuse, and backup your files with rsync :) [16:48] yup ok thanks guys! [16:48] you're welcome :) [16:49] What exactly is it that oh-my-zsh does that makes it so many sing its praises? [16:49] ActionParsnip, did not work [16:50] I have an .odt file stored on my desktop, but if I copy it to a usb drive and then try to open it from the drive, the file seems corrupted. Instead of opening normally, it gives me an 'ascii filter options' dialog box....when I do open the file, it is just page after page of '#' with no spaces or other characters. If I copy the corrupted file from the usb drive back to my desktop and try to open it, the file won't open....has the [16:50] same problem. Any ideas what might be going on??? [16:50] Hi all, I'm trying to install 10.04.4 on a dl360 g8 which has a p410i controller. Is there any precompiled hpsa driver around I can load during install? [16:50] I am using Xubuntu I do not know if I should nbe following that guide4 [16:50] I am experiencing a strange issue with ddd, and I am uncertain if it is an ubuntu thing or a ddd thing. Specifically, the command line arguments window is always disabled and I can't enter anything into it. [16:51] ROPA: maybe usb drive is broken? === TylerDurden is now known as onryo [16:52] jro, did you saw at hp website for this driver ? [16:52] funtable: it just has the source, it's not precompiled though [16:52] MarkT-: is this related to 'dd' ? [16:53] no... ddd. [16:53] MarkT-: ok never heard of it then. [16:53] leptom it's my backup drive and I can't imagine it's broken. I was also able to duplicate the error by creating a different file, then storing it, then trying to read it back from the drive. It seems this happens to all .odt files..... [16:53] it's a graphical debugger that works with gdb. [16:53] they were aiming for confusion naming that =/ === xubuntu is now known as Guest96834 [16:55] or is it not possible to load the hpsa driver in 10.04? [16:56] ROPA: ouch. Then I don't know :S [16:57] ActionParsnip, should I install all those packages even if I am using Xubuntu 12.04? I am worried I will cause more problems by fixing my headphone/speaker issue [16:57] leptom I just completed tests with all the other filetypes on the drive...and there are many different types....only yhe .odt file seems to have the issue......I'm stuck::> [16:58] help! i think i bricked my laptop somehow....when i reboot now i can't get into bios or boot from usb stick or nothing....just blank screen [16:58] mmm... could you check to copy the file and later compare them [16:58] the original and the copy [16:59] for example: check if they have the same file size or do a diff [17:02] leptom I have the source file and the same file from the usb drive....was thinking about pastebin posting, so others could look at the files....Im not sue, but I think the filesize canb be slightly different because my system drive is ext4 and the usb deive is fat32.. === shiznix_ is now known as shiznix [17:04] leptom I just checked, both files are exactly the same length...both are 44,548 filesize. === bruno is now known as Guest64037 [17:04] hey guys i just installed xubuntu 12.04 and everything is working fine but my sound is playing from both my headphones and speakers what can i do to fix this I have a Lenovo G700 Laptiop http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9b5adea61317b7afca21e6ca46055515b848c02a === kamer90 is now known as kmg90 [17:05] ROPA: It so weird. Have it an strange filename? [17:05] good evening. Today my desktop decided to play all videos with a blue "cover" and I dont mean flash videos on youtube ( those are ok! ) but avi videos on my drive opened with MoviePlayer or VLC [17:05] I'm using ubuntu 12.04 [17:06] Hello everyone [17:06] leptom no, it's just a plain and short simple filename, chosen because fat32 doesn't like some filenames....such as those with a pipe in them::> [17:06] Could someone please help me test my wireless router/card top speed? I am right next to it with full signal [17:06] ROPA: I asked for discard options [17:07] leptom Im not sure what a discard option is..... [17:07] anyone? [17:07] ROPA: It's my fault (my english). I didn't explain well :) [17:09] ikonia, are you on? [17:09] leptom ok, many thanks for suggestions, I'll try google and try to figure it out. Have a great day!!! [17:10] you too! :) [17:11] Wiz_KeeD: yes, why ? [17:12] I thought that if you had a bit spare time maybe you could lend me a hand with this issue, nobody has been able to do so for a few weeks of me asking here [17:12] bit busy at the moment, but if it's something I can help with, sure. [17:14] I want to plug usb2 device on usb3 port . [17:14] How can enable ehci_hcd module on usb3 port ? [17:14] that's very thoughful [17:14] mah454: since usb3 is downwards compatible should there be a difference to a usb2 slot? [17:15] mah454: you can use a usb2 device on a usb3 port anyway [17:15] ikonia, I had some serious issues at warranty with a wireless card that worked great (5-6 even 7mb/s transfers iirc) until it croaked completly.They exchanged that one with another that's a totally different brand, and ever since I cannot get passed 3.6 4,4.xmb/s in lucky days and even now when I am right next to the router [17:16] hitsujiTMO and k1l_ : I have a USB-TV device . this device work on usb2 without any problem but in usb3 not work !!! [17:16] I wanted to know if there's a way to test the wireless card is actually limited and cannot go any faster than that speed so I can go back to those bastards and have a proper one installed [17:16] Wiz_KeeD: It's possible to be too close to the router. [17:17] jhutchins, I tried pretty much all of those, away 1 store down, behnd 1-2 wall, in the room, right next to it, doesn't get any better [17:17] Wiz_KeeD: What chipset is it? [17:17] anyone want to recommend me a decent html/php editor? :) [17:17] Wiz_KeeD: frankly I'd consider that to be within tolerance [17:17] Wiz_KeeD: the first thing I'd do is look at what ddriver it's using [17:17] mah454: can you connect it in and pastebin the output of: lsusb && lsusb -t [17:17] Wiz_KeeD: and check out that drivers support [17:17] Wiz_KeeD: different cards, different routers, different conditions [17:17] And the original location has not changed nor the internet or anything else [17:17] zaitzev: define "decent" [17:17] !best | zaitzev [17:17] gordonjcp, just different cards, router is the same, internet connection is the same [17:17] zaitzev: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [17:17] Wiz_KeeD: you'll often find poor performance with certain cards on linux due to poor driver/reverse engineered drivers [17:17] ikonia: Why do we think it's USB? [17:17] Wiz_KeeD: noise conditions the same? [17:17] jhutchins: I didn't say anything about usb ? [17:17] ikonia, I guess that does make sense but I have the same result in windows [17:17] gordonjcp: I didn't say the "best" now did I? I asked for a decent one. [17:18] zaitzev: and I said, define "decent"? [17:18] Wiz_KeeD: ok, so that suggests your card/network has something limiting it [17:18] gordonjcp, I have to say I did not monitor them before with the other card but it caught speeds really fast no problem [17:18] zaitzev: I use vim or gedit, depending on what I'm doing [17:18] zaitzev: emacs [17:18] ikonia, I was thinking the same thing, just hope I didn't miss something [17:18] mah454: and please show the "dmesg" after you sticked it into the usb slot in a pastebin [17:18] Wiz_KeeD: really it could be *anything* [17:18] I need a way to test it for sure, then go to those fuckers and make them exchange it and I run the test again [17:18] Wiz_KeeD: You have a better chance at getting the hardware replaced if it performs just as badly in Windows. I would move on to that directly if that's the case, poor performance is really more likely to be hardware than something you can fix with software. [17:18] !language | Wiz_KeeD [17:18] Wiz_KeeD: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [17:18] gordonjcp, the strange thing is nothing changed except the wireless card [17:19] Wiz_KeeD: ... that you know of [17:19] Wiz_KeeD: you've been here long enough to know this [17:19] Wiz_KeeD: you know the rules on language, why are you using bad language [17:19] gordonjcp, granted yes [17:19] Wiz_KeeD: Most often the drivers either work or they don't. [17:19] gordonjcp: gedit is a good choice for single file edit, but I'm looking for something that is somewhat up the alley of phpstorm or something (is that even for linux?) [17:19] jhutchins, that also make sense, and they wouldn't limit it [17:19] Wiz_KeeD: maybe they've got the aerial leads on the wrong sockets [17:19] zaitzev: why "single file edit"? [17:19] zaitzev: I have no idea what phpstorm is [17:19] gordonjcp, I wouldn't know, but I wouldn't be surprised [17:19] zaitzev: emacs for cli, sublime text for gui [17:19] zaitzev: gedit has tabs [17:20] zaitzev: and syntax highlighting [17:20] zaitzev: vim :D [17:20] Any suggestion on how I can test for sure, like transfer to and from the wireless and test the speed when I'm right next to it [17:20] zaitzev: vim also has tabs, and syntax highlighting [17:20] Why should it have transfer rates lower than 5mb/s, it doesn't make sense [17:20] hi [17:20] Wiz_KeeD: poor RF conditions, lots of noise? [17:20] Wiz_KeeD: Test a transfer in Windows and report that to the hardware guys. [17:20] Wiz_KeeD: guy next door has fired up a wireless router on the same channel [17:20] gordonjcp: See [17:20] zaitzev: sublime text, light table :) [17:20] Wiz_KeeD: microwave is broken [17:20] jhutchins, I can boot to win now, think you can help with naming a software or something? [17:20] gordonjcp: See "previous card worked fine until it failed". [17:21] jhutchins: I don't get the relevance [17:21] hello! I need help with xmodmap. It seems like an easy thing but I got confused. I want to have my left and right windows keys to behave as the right alt key and the alt keys to behave like they were a windows key. [17:21] Wiz_KeeD: you have tested the card in linux and windows - it has poor performance in both [17:21] k1l_: View this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6886380/ [17:21] Wiz_KeeD: Nope, haven't used WIndows since 2004. [17:21] Wiz_KeeD: what does that tell you - it's a problem with that card on your network [17:21] yes, I did not test the card in windows next to the router, but I will now [17:21] Wiz_KeeD: talk to the hardware vendor [17:21] Wiz_KeeD: make sure the cables are connected properly and on the right pins [17:21] k1l_: I connected device on usb2 and take this log [17:21] Heh, ten years. [17:21] Wiz_KeeD, install software named 'nload' => sudo apt-get install nload , and use linke this : # nload eth0 (just replace with your wi-fi card) [17:21] k1l_, I can't do that the warranty will be void [17:22] ok funtable that sounds like a plan [17:22] k1l_: I have not any message on usb3 !!! [17:22] Wiz_KeeD: The hardware guys are likely to weasel if you mention Linux - just go with "doesn't work in Windows". [17:22] jhutchins, of course yeah [17:23] hi. i installed openssh-server, and it starts up when i boot the computer. still, it is nowhere to be found in /etc/rc*.d. tehfuck? [17:23] mah454: does that usb3 slot work? [17:23] mah454: can you connect it in and pastebin the output of: lsusb && lsusb -t && dmesg [17:23] swizgard: there is no need for that language, it is not welcome in this channel [17:23] Wiz_KeeD: I think any further effort except taking it in is wasted. [17:23] swizgard: it's not in rc.d because it's an upstart job === viv`d is now known as vivid [17:23] swizgard: Magic. [17:23] I just want to be sure I'm right before storming in there and accusing them [17:23] don't accuse them [17:23] ask them for help [17:24] k1l_: yes work . for example Flash memory or Mouse work on usb3 but USB-TV not work !!! [17:24] I asked them for help twice and they messed up [17:24] Wiz_KeeD: Yeah, don't storm, just say "hey, I can't get this to work". [17:24] but diplomacy might work better, you are right ikonia === root_164 is now known as cyborg4 [17:24] Wiz_KeeD: then ask for your money back and use a different provider [17:24] this isn't really anything to do with ubuntu [17:24] ohhh, if it only worked like that in Romania :) [17:24] Wiz_KeeD: Give them the opportunity to be heros, they might just surprize you. Get them on your side. [17:24] haha [17:24] right right [17:24] brb [17:25] ikonia: To be fair, he was assking about benchmarking it in Ubuntu to prove the problem. [17:27] hitsujiTMO: k1l_ : this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6886412/ [17:27] It has the same symptoms, maybe running a bit better and hitting 4.6 here and there but still way low [17:28] mah454: please pastebin the output of: dmesg [17:29] hitsujiTMO: connect to usb2 or usb3 ? [17:29] mah454: honestly i dont know if there could be hardware limits to only support usb2.0 [17:29] in windows under speed it says: 54mbps [17:29] mah454: as it is now. dmesg is a log so the info is in it right now [17:29] mah454: but well, maybe the usb3.0 port doesnt give enough ampere? [17:31] i am in need of an offline dictionary which explains the english words (meanings), so is there such a utility in linux? [17:31] i am in need of an offline dictionary which explains the english words (meanings), so is there such a utility in linux? [17:32] linuxearth: does it have to be on linux or can it be on paper too? [17:32] on linux, why would i ask a paper dictionary in this channel? [17:33] ikonia: sorry and thank you === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [17:34] linuxearth: maybe http://aarddict.org/index.html or grab an ebook dictionary from amazon or other ebook provider [17:34] i try that [17:36] linuxearth: in case it is ubuntu (why not saying ubuntu but linux all the time) try this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/40807/is-there-an-offline-dictionary [17:36] actually that i don't have to use in ubuntu === kamer90 is now known as kmg90 [17:36] thatnks i try === Enissay_ is now known as Enissay [17:38] linuxearth: so please dont ask in the ubuntu support if you are not using ubuntu anyway. the solutions might not work on other distros so please ask their support for that [17:39] k1l_, FYI, you're slow: [2014/02/06 12:36:36] * linuxearth (~linuxworl@unaffiliated/linuxearth) has left #ubuntu ("Konversation terminated!") (they're already gone) [17:39] * TheLordOfTime goes back to lurking [17:40] TheLordOfTime: yep, multitastking slows me down :) === TheLordOfTime is now known as teward [17:40] hehe [17:41] swizgard, at /etc/init you will find ssh.conf who tell system to start it [17:41] So under network connections I got my mobile broadband set up. Which I think has the correct number and pin and all that. But it just says Last used: never [17:42] good bye people, see you later or tomorrow [17:42] Psil0Cybin: yes its the same backend [17:42] Psil0Cybin: the default DE you are using does not affect the ALSA setup underneath, its all the same fro Ubuntu, Lubuntu and Ubuntu and so on [17:42] okay what is the link to those files I need to install. [17:42] Psil0Cybin: its just the frontend GUI that is different [17:42] I restarted the computer and lost that link! [17:42] to step 1# [17:43] after I removed folders, and killed pulse audio [17:43] Psil0Cybin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure run the large command in step 1 here and reboot [17:43] Psil0Cybin: the big command in step 1 [17:44] ActionParsnip you left, I do not want Gnome!! On my Xubuntu machine!! [17:44] running that command would install ubuntu-desktop.... [17:44] Hi! I would like to install Ubuntu 12.04.3 on Power PC. But it looks like it has only alternat install [17:45] When I tried Lubuntu Powerpc mac had some interneta and graphic issues [17:45] Don't what to have that with Ubuntu [17:45] so I tried to chroot, and the program is like: "can't find /bin/bash 'n libs 'n stuff". So what do an old man do? [17:46] Is there a way to tray live cd for Ubuntu on powerpc [17:46] why doesnt it try to connect to the mobile broadband [17:46] wtf [17:46] Slit: Ubuntu is the same base system as lubuntu with a different desktop, you will have the same issues. [17:46] Slit: grab the desktop iso here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCDownloads [17:47] Slit: You can just install gnome on lubunt and that's the same as ubuntu. [17:47] Thank you [17:47] Slit: yep, you just need a cd for power PC..... seems like hitsujiTMO solved it 4ya [17:48] I will try just that [17:48] !ppc | Slit [17:48] Slit: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [17:48] hitsujiTMO Thank you [17:48] I hope everythig works [17:49] don't know how would I work out with graphic issues [17:49] So it still tries to use the ethernet connection or it doesnt recognise the mobile broadband stick :S [17:51] Can I trust skype, will it "act isolated" or will it intrude on the rest of my system? [17:52] can you trust skype? in a nutshell, no. [17:52] fglrx update broken? http://paste.ubuntu.com/6886545/ [17:52] how the f do I make it force try one of the mobile broadband connections? [17:53] treehouse: you can trust skype to give copies of all your text chats, voice calls, and voice print to the NSA [17:53] how can i track down an issue with the CLIPBOARD selection? [17:54] i'm trying to install 12.04 on non pae hardware. I'm using netboot via pxe. It loads the installer no problems - but then freezes up on downloading installer compontents. Is there any mirror i should be choosing? It seems to download then hang. [17:54] if i put something in the clipboard (from vim) i can see it the first time i call `parcellite --clipboard`, but it's gone the second time i call `parcellite --clipboard` [17:54] does anyone know any reasons this could happen? [17:54] staticshock: clipboard issues are tricky (as there are a couple running simultaniously), what is your issue? [17:54] ^^ [17:55] basically something is copiable only once, and then it disappears [17:55] staticshock: parcellite, i have no idea - that's a 3rd clipboard you've added ;) best of luck. [17:55] zykotick9: i added it to diagnose this issue, which was already happening [17:55] zykotick9: if i didn't have parcellite, what would you recommend i try? [17:55] staticshock: from vim in terminal or a gui frontend? === toastcfh_ is now known as toastcfh [17:56] vim in terminal [17:56] nvb: that driver doesn't support your gpu. [17:56] if i copy something from some gui program, i can read that clipboard in vim multiple times, no problem [17:56] staticshock: i'd suggest using Xorg's middle mouse clipboard then... that's what I use YMMV. good luck. [17:56] if i copy something from vim into the x clipboard, it disappears after one read [17:56] ye i just found out :/ [17:57] ActionParsnip: yo [17:57] zykotick9: not an option... [17:57] hey guys i just installed xubuntu 12.04 and everything is working fine but my sound is playing from both my headphones and speakers what can i do to fix this I have a Lenovo G700 Laptiop http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9b5adea61317b7afca21e6ca46055515b848c02a [17:57] staticshock: good luck. [17:57] zykotick9: also, this *was* working correctly as recently as yesterday [17:57] nvb: 12.04 with precise stack (kernel 3.2 and original xorg) is needed for ati legacy support [17:58] staticshock: then, what changed? [17:58] that's what i need help digging up [17:59] staticshock: what terminal is it? not xterm by any chance? [17:59] So you have two versions of the installer.. humm..diff ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz ../tftp/ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz [17:59] Binary files ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz and ../tftp/ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz differ === UKn0Me is now known as HerpTheDerpWhale [18:01] hitsujiTMO: are you asking what $TERM is set to, or what terminal emulator i'm using [18:01] i'm on gnome-terminal w/xterm-256color [18:02] staticshock: what terminal emulator. xterm itself sucks when it comes to copy + pasting. seen similar issues with that [18:03] staticshock: is this with pasting to a specific app, or any app? [18:03] hitsujiTMO: i would imagine that i'm circumventing the terminal's own copy/paste mechanisms by using vim registers, which interact with the X CLIPBOARD/PRIMARY selections directory [18:04] hitsujiTMO: pasting to any app after placing it in the CLIPBOARD [18:04] anyone having issue with the last apt-get upgrade? [18:04] related to usb [18:05] right, so the nm-applet isnt working properly. it's not showing all the available connections. [18:05] hi, i have a question i accidently mistyped a command and i lost half of my files. Is there a way to bring them back? I typed rm -r Brooklyn\ * instead of rm -r Brooklyn* . All my important files are on another drive and backed up. I will just have to work to get all these files back. TIA [18:05] how to revert the last upgrade [18:05] hitsujiTMO: one thing to note is that i was also running VirtualBox with bi-directional clipboard sharing and LibreOffice, which *might* complicate things, but I've shut them both down so i could test this. [18:05] wip, what kind of problems? [18:05] wip: yes indeed. with my ubuntu version 666 i have now 10 gbit speed === yt_ is now known as sad [18:05] ... [18:05] 10 gbit? that's bad? ;) lol [18:06] chemist^: :> [18:06] hitsujiTMO: do you know of any program i could use to debug this? [18:06] for example sometimes my logitech receiver (usb) doesn't work [18:06] and we have a winner. your documentation was outdated. There is an updated installer that people are ment to use to netboot install 12.04 LTS [18:06] hi [18:06] Its like: My Pc wont run! Answer: did you turn it on? [18:06] chemist^, is it possible to revert the last upgrade? [18:07] wip well maybe it's a hardware problem... have you tried connecting it to another usb port? [18:07] staticshock: afraid not [18:07] chemist^, i have been running this setup for ages [18:07] so I'm downloading a chroot environment.. but is it 32 or 64 bit? using debootstrap [18:07] wip that doesn't prove anything [18:07] chemist^: you must be also a magician. since you know about which version hes talking about [18:07] i also have been using the same usb port for ages [18:08] and now it works bad [18:08] treehouse: debootstrap defaults to your currect arch [18:08] i need to apply pressure on a specific angle [18:08] current* [18:08] for it to work without cut-outs [18:08] i installed ubuntu 13.10 on my dell laptop and it always is at max so is it possible to set the default brightness [18:08] subz3r0, ;) [18:08] is it possible to revert the last upgrade? [18:08] to a lower value that is.. [18:09] it is not an hardware problem, i have this new problem with other usb device [18:09] wip i don't know, never downgraded anything on ubuntu [18:09] trisquel: if you change brighness level, is it not persistent between boots? [18:09] wip: how do you suppose that anyone can help you without any infos? [18:09] :) [18:09] subz3r0, my question is only: how to downgrade an upgrade [18:09] hitsujiTMO, yes exactly its not persistent.. [18:10] I cannot get into my house. can anyone help me? it worked yesterday... [18:10] ;DD [18:10] wip: you really dont get the point, do you? [18:10] trisquel, using Nvidia drivers? [18:10] trisquel: you can add a script to set your preffered brightness value and have that called by lightdm [18:10] subz3r0, ... do you have the command? [18:11] wip, this is the first thing that comes out when i searched on google... http://askubuntu.com/questions/152733/how-can-i-remove-all-updates-installed-after-a-specific-date [18:11] wip: first learn how to ask the right questions. and how about givin correct information to the helping hand... [18:11] hitsujiTMO, tyrfing__ no intel [18:11] could you try and seek the answer yourself next time? and IF you don't find any answer on ubuntu support pages, THEN ask here [18:12] chemist^: maybe you should tell him that he should give US some INFORMATION [18:12] some kind of: what god damn ubuntu version is it? [18:12] yes, that also [18:12] what kind of computer does he use [18:13] ok guys sorry [18:13] trisquel, go to your /etc/default/grub, and in the line, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, add acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor..... Example, mine looks like this, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor" [18:13] normally i am pretty good at searching and asking [18:14] My Pc wont run anymore. But yesterday it did! how can I get it working again? [18:14] !behelpful | subz3r0 enough of the sarcatic remarks [18:14] subz3r0 enough of the sarcatic remarks: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. [18:14] cheers [18:14] hitsujiTMO: ... [18:14] is he still not get the point? ridiculous... [18:14] if [18:15] wip: chemist^ FYI, apt has no downgrade option... things can become messed up, if you try to. [18:15] trisquel, then run an sudo update-grub and then restart. Tell me how things turn out. [18:16] that's why i've never downgraded anything :P zykotick9 [18:16] isn't keeping your system up-to-date one of the basic things anyone using Ubuntu should do? [18:17] chemist^: yes, but there will be regressions from time to time :( [18:18] s**t happens:P [18:18] (i meant salt - not a bad word :P) [18:20] hi there guys [18:20] tyrfing__, hitsujiTMO It worked! Wow! Thanks :) [18:20] trisquel, what did it? [18:21] tyrfing__, adding acpi_osi linux backlight=vendor in grub.. and then updating... [18:21] hello? [18:21] hello! [18:21] (y) Cool man, glad it helps [18:22] when I try to clear browsing data I get RemoveFilesRecursively: unlink dir: Directory not empty [18:22] hi there [18:22] [3640:3669:0206/181710:ERROR:plugin_data_remover_impl.cc(263)] ClearSiteData returned erro [18:22] how can I tell which directory it is having problems wit [18:23] lessshaste: have you run the browser with sudo at some point? [18:23] Just setup CUPS on my 'Pi. Now tried a few lines to print, everything looks fine so far. Until now. I only get a bunch of hyroglyhps when trying to print a document. I dont know what the problem is, but how do I solve this issue? [18:24] lessshaste: try: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME then try again [18:24] http://pastebin.com/AyiSN34W wtf is going on? [18:24] koell, what software did you use to create these documents? [18:25] chemist^: different software. from plain textfiles with leafpad, to pdf files and images. [18:25] maybe you don't have the needed fonts installed (just guessing - correct me if i'm wrong any1) [18:25] koell, plain textfiles give out strange chars as well? [18:25] treehouse: dpkg --add-architecture i386 [18:25] chemist^: its a really bad issue, lost a lot of paper and ink on trying to solve it. [18:25] chemist^: yep. i think its postscript code. [18:25] Hi What does it mean if dpkg gives this?: "cancercurecoin-qt depends on libdb4.8++-dev | libdb++-dev; however:" And then it says both dependencies and not installed. [18:26] hitsujiTMO, interesting [18:26] hitsujiTMO, just tried htat [18:26] hitsujiTMO, made no difference [18:26] koell, well you could try to solve the problem with only 1 line to print, on the same peace of paper over and over again :P [18:26] koell, when did it start to act strange? [18:26] did you install something? [18:26] upgrade anything [18:27] chemist^: thats the weird thing. even if i use just one line of text, i get a bunch of paper with hyroglyhps on it :) [18:27] In Linux Mint my deb package installs fine, including installing dependenices automatically via gdebi. [18:27] lol ;D no idea [18:27] hitsujiTMO: thanks. So what does that do? [18:27] chemist^: the first time i installed cups on the pi it works. it was the first day. now after a few days, reboots it seems to be broken. didn't install anything or upgrade. really bad :( [18:28] hitsujiTMO, this is usingChromium 32.0.1700.102 Ubuntu 13.10 [18:28] treehouse: adds i386 to multiarch [18:28] koell, tried reinstalling cups? [18:28] chemist^: no. how to uninstall it completely? apt-get purge --remove cups? [18:29] lessshaste: i'd assume the browser or a plugin has locked a file. try rebooting and then retry [18:29] hitsujiTMO, ok [18:30] koell, if you installed it with apt-get then yes... [18:30] Hey guys having a problem with my Xubuntu 12.04 when I plug in headphones it does not mute the speakers on the laptop I have followed guides but am confused as nothing works for me I am using a Lenovo G700 laptop [18:30] chemist^: ok. 'll give it a try [18:30] Psil0Cybin, alsamixer [18:30] chemist^: thanks [18:31] Psil0Cybin, easy to use, has an option there to mute the speakers while headphones are connected [18:31] any vice-versa [18:31] and* [18:31] Matt_von_Mises: Ya might try and see if the package manager will install those dependencies -> sudo apt-get install (??). [18:31] chemist^, only displays MASTER PCM S/PDIF none of which mnute the speakers, it considers the speaker and headphone jacket, as one module lowering volume for both with any setting change [18:32] chemist^, http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9b5adea61317b7afca21e6ca46055515b848c02a [18:33] chemist^, they say it is a driver, issue but i am confused how i can upgrade my new drivers [18:34] everything else works fine which is the most puzzling thing its just the silly sound driver. [18:35] Bashing-om: OK thnks, But why doesn't Ubuntu install the dependencies automatically like Linux Mint does? I want people to simply click on my deb package file and have everything installed nicely for them. I don't want to force people to go into the Terminal and use apt-get. === vila_ is now known as vila [18:37] #VoltaRedonda [18:37] Matt_von_Mises: what version of ubuntu is this? [18:39] well [18:39] sigh did not work :( [18:40] audio input only wants to work with the speaker working, which makes wearing headphones useless [18:40] guys anyone know if i installed xubuntu alongside with windows 7 where can i find the xubuntu folder if i boot windows ? [18:41] illuminati: what do you mean "xubuntu folder"? [18:41] illuminati: windows cannot read ext filesystems [18:41] Matt_von_Mises: I have to assume "cancercurecoin-qt" is not of the repositories, and as such not under the direct control of the package manager (??). Got then to take matters into your own hands. [18:41] like where is it installed ? [18:42] hitsujiTMO: I believe it is Saucy. [18:42] illuminati: on another partition on the hdd. but windows is not able to see that [18:42] Is gdebi the only package installer which automatically installs packages for you? [18:42] dependencies I mean [18:43] oh ok i see thanx :) and guys anyone know how to allocate ''free space'' which is currently not allocated to any partition to like C drive ? [18:43] Bashing-om: It's a deb packages not on any repository. I exacted Ubuntu would still be able to install the dependencies like gdebi does on Linux Mint. [18:43] *exacted -> expected [18:44] Matt_von_Mises: A lot depends on how the packager (person) set up the installtion means, (cobtrol scripts) . [18:45] Matt_von_Mises: If ya want to use gdebi" one can .. kit is available in ubuntu also. [18:45] illuminati: Please open a terminal and run "sudo parted -l", then post the output of that command to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com and give us a link to said output. [18:45] Using kubuntu, performed apt-get dist-upgrade. System attempted to upgrade to the newest nvidia- driver. All seemed to go well, restarted, all is not ok. I've purged all nvidia packages back and forth numerous times and can't seem to get things back to normal. lsmod no longer shows nvidia as installed. I see a module called "video" looks like nouveau. Anyone know how i can properly re-install nvidia drivers? [18:45] Matt_von_Mises: also why does a package depend on the dev package and not the libs itself? can you pastebin the output of: apt-cache policy libdb++-dev [18:45] Matt_von_Mises: *control [18:46] hitsujiTMO: The exact version is 13.10 64 bit. Bashing-om: How does one set up a deb package to have dependencies installed automatically? [18:48] Matt_von_Mises: dpkg never downloads packages to satisfy dependancies. Gdebi does. Just use gdebi if you want dependencies downloaded and installed automatically. [18:48] hitsujiTMO: When I tested it in Linux mint it couldn't find libdb++/libdb4.8++. Only the -dev versions worked. Maybe I did something wrong. [18:48] Matt_von_Mises: you should prob be depending on just libdb++-dev not libdb4.8++-dev considering 5.1 is whats in the saucy repo. 4.8 is a virtual package [18:49] hi, I wrote the amd64 .ido to USB stick, and used it to install to a USB HD [18:49] now uname -m says i686 lol? [18:49] hitsujiTMO: I think the 4.8 version is needed, so it looks for that one first. [18:49] not .ido, but .iso [18:50] would this be the right place to ask a question about a lost password on launchpad/ubuntu single-sign-on? [18:50] Matt_von_Mises: well, 4.8 isn't in the repo. [18:50] Jordan_U: What about whatever replaced gdebi as the GUI installer? That also had problems. Should I tell people to use gdebi if they want to install the package? [18:51] Matt_von_Mises: and you prob can't find 4.8 in the mint repo for the same reason [18:51] (non dev that is) [18:51] hitsujiTMO: Hmm, I looked and apparently libdb++-dev is fine for the software, but libdb4.8++-dev is needed for older versions of Ubuntu. [18:52] Matt_von_Mises: then maybe do the normal thing and have release specific builds [18:52] Matt_von_Mises: then maybe do the normal thing and have release specific packages i should say [18:53] Matt_von_Mises: See: -> http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html#_debian_package_management_prerequisites :D [18:56] hitsujiTMO: So create a separate package for each and every version of ubuntu, linux mint, debian etc.? [18:56] ok, got a good one, snmpd in combination with obeservium [18:56] the problem is that I have errors with loading default monitors and have an error drawing the graphs [18:57] Matt_von_Mises: yes [18:57] !alternate [18:57] The alternate CD has been discontinued for the main Ubuntu distro, please use and report any bugs in the !LiveCD [18:57] :-/ [18:59] !mini | michagogo|cloud [18:59] michagogo|cloud: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [18:59] Bashing-om: Where abouts am I looking? I already set up the control file, I don't know how to change it to get the dependencies to install. [19:00] zykotick9: That doesn't tell me what the alternate iso is [19:00] michagogo|cloud: lol it says use the mini instead [19:00] I don't have enough time, I think I'll just have to tell people to use gdebi. [19:00] michagogo|cloud: alternate WAS a text based installer, with media included. [19:00] zykotick9: is [19:00] s/media/packages/ [19:00] A new alternate iso was just released for precise.4 [19:01] michagogo|cloud: alternate was discontinued, as factoid above points out [19:01] I was wondering what the difference between desktop and alternate is [19:01] michagogo|cloud: text based install vs liveimage [19:01] zykotick9: Sure, but it's still around for precise [19:01] alternate has packages in a usable form so you can upgrade from the alternate disc too, afaik [19:01] Is the text based install any different in terms of the end result? [19:01] michagogo|cloud: no. [19:02] Does it give more options or something? [19:02] michagogo|cloud: it's useful for those that have modern unsupported graphics cards [19:02] michagogo|cloud: no its not just that clickable. [19:02] michagogo|cloud: mini certainly does, alternate - i'm not sure... [19:04] According to this the Ubuntu Software Centre should install dependencies: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/how-to-make-deb-files-open-with-gdebi.html [19:05] when "installing" a program (unzip and place content in a directory, then run program.sh) - in what directory should I put it in the first place? === Neozonz is now known as Guest12762 [19:05] zaitzev: depends.... /opt maybe [19:05] or users home [19:06] I put it in /opt - and updated $PATH to reflect its /bin directory, but it didn't work.. [19:07] make sure user got permissions to go to the /opt directory (and its executable) === Guest6728 is now known as Cydrobolt [19:07] zaitzev: also read the README. What app is this? [19:08] phpstorm [19:08] i read the readme, and what I mentioned above is pretty much all it said: Put folder somewhere, update $PATH to be able to launch from anywhere [19:08] directory is chowned to root, as is the other things in /opt [19:09] zaitzev: how did you update $PATH ? [19:09] in .profile [19:09] zaitzev: and did you relog? [19:09] Matt_von_Mises: What happens when you try to install your package in Ubuntu via Gdebi? What happens when you try to install it via Software Center? [19:09] yes I did [19:10] zaitzev: echo $PATH and ensure thats correct [19:10] yeah, no..it's not there. And that is something I also wonder [19:11] zaitzev: also did you chmod +x phpstorm.sh in the /bin folder? [19:12] zaitzev: you want the path static... youve to use "export"... [19:12] trying to start skype in a chrooted environment. "No protocol specified". Any ideas? :p [19:12] oh wait, works now, wtf [19:13] Any audio gurus here? I desperately need some help. Proteus killed my headphones. [19:13] how is zfs on Ubuntu, is it rock solid yet? [19:13] hitsujiTMO: Didn't, but I do get an error now relating to missing JDK :p [19:13] Hello people. How are you? [19:13] My ALSA utiles and libraries seem to be off by a patch. [19:13] !java | zaitzev install it then :P [19:13] zaitzev install it then :P: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin.

And if I use service networking status: stop/waiting [19:24] I want to protect my data from evil skype [19:24] Alberto: in that output, whats the bit in [XXXX:YYYY] [19:24] if i installed oracle java7, is there a way i can change the security features? or would you suggest install openjdk? [19:24] treehouse: it does not sandbox, but can institute limits, so e.g. skype can't open any files [19:25] toastytoast: what do you mean with 'security features'? [19:25] ubuntu x64, form what i could find the java control panel isn't on 64bit machines, [19:25] so i can run self-signed java applets [19:25] Trying to use a 32 bits application on 64 bits ubuntu, the application website recommended this ------- sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libpangox-1.0-0:i386 libpangoxft-1.0-0:i386 libidn11:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386 ------ but I get error in all of them, can you convert this command to matching the right names please [19:25] Alberto: also what driver is loaded, lspci -knn | grep Ethernet -A2 [19:26] Alberto: xjkx which Ubuntu version? [19:26] Seveas: mostly just for self-signed app i get error application blocked from running becuase of security setting using chromium [19:26] err, that came out wrong [19:26] Seveas: 13.10 [19:26] hitsujiTMO: 8086:1503 [19:26] xjkx: that should work, pastebin the full output please [19:27] Seveas: maybe I need to enable a repository ? [19:27] Seveas: is ubuntu 12.04 [19:27] Alberto: xjkx shouldn't be necessary [19:27] Seveas: gonna pastebin hold on [19:27] Alberto: sudo ethtool | grep Link [19:27] what does that say?

Either this file is not [19:29] a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the [19:29] latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on [19:29] the last disk(s) of this archive.

[19:30] treehouse: because you're in a chroot without /dev /proc and /sys bindmounted [19:30] Seveas: so bad to read that =( [19:30] Seveas: first time that I have this kind of problem [19:30] Seveas: thnxzzz [19:31] wel basicly i am tryign to run an applet, it doesn't run and i get the error "your security settings have blocked a self-signed application from running" i know in 32bit the install comes with the java control panel, from what i fund googling "security settings java ubuntu 64bit" the 64bit install does not come with this, i'm using the official oracle installer, does openjdk/jre allow unsigned applications to run? or is there a way i can change my security s [19:31] Alberto: what happens if you do service networking start? [19:31] i hoep that makes more sense it's beena bit of a day so far [19:31] toastytoast: well, if nobody has an answer, why not simply try openjdk? :) [19:31] well i was going to, but i wanted to check first [19:31] Seveas: http://pastebin.com/J3d7SEB5 [19:32] Seveas: returns "stop/wating" [19:32] Alberto: so "start" returns "stop/waiting"? That's odd... [19:32] Seveas: yeap, It's weirnd no? [19:32] Seveas: weird* [19:33] xjkx: hmm, that output is unusually short. Pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list please [19:33] ok I get this error when tyring to unzip file, what does it mean? http://pastebin.com/QcG0DVzk [19:33] Alberto: does the 3rd line of the output of 'ifconfig eth0' start with 'UP BROADCAST MULTICAST' ? [19:34] Seveas: let me check === Thorium220 is now known as Thor|Away [19:34] serversides: probably that it's a multipart zip or simply corrupt. [19:35] ok thanks, Would a password protected zip interfere? [19:35] Seveas: UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST [19:35] Seveas: maybe because im running live, but this is my sources.list http://pastebin.com/R9vypK0t but I wanted to make sure it worked before I installed ubuntu for real [19:37] xjkx: hmm, even live this should work. I can assure you that the apt-get command works on installed systems as I just tried it. No idea why it fails on live, maybe they somehow disabled multiarch on them [19:37] Alberto: ok, that's positive, and does it list an IP address in the output? [19:37] alright i installed icedtea seems o work [19:37] !paste | serversides [19:37] serversides: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [19:37] or not just said the page was not responding :( [19:38] Seveas: maybe thats why aptget doesnt work on trying to install kdenlive as well, does it work for you with default source.list ? [19:38] Seveas: yes, I have an IP, but is weird because the IP is not similar as the others IP in my network [19:38] I already got informed jhutchins o_o [19:38] Alberto: is your ip 169.X.X.X ? [19:38] serversides: Oh, sorry, that was just for future reference. [19:38] Seveas: If I try to do a ping to a local IP. I have this error "Network is unreachable" [19:39] xjkx: yes, http://pastebin.com/J3d7SEB5 [19:39] jhutchins: np dude , got it :) === luny is now known as ASSHOLE_MAX [19:39] err, that's https://gist.github.com/8851138 [19:39] Seveas: alright, thank you [19:39] Alberto: ok, so what's the IP? [19:39] Seveas: 172.17.42.1 [19:40] Alberto: that's a fairly normal local network IP. Are you sure you did not set it? === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [19:40] Alberto: if you do 'route -n', which ip address is listed as gateway? [19:41] Alberto: is there a rogue dhcp server on the network? [19:41] Alberto: and can you ping that ip? [19:42] Seveas: 172.17.0.0 [19:42] Alberto: no, that's under destination, not under gateway [19:42] Seveas: let me check again [19:42] gateway is the 2nd field === hdevalence is now known as hdevalence|away [19:43] hitsujiTMO: I don't think so man [19:43] how do I get display:0:0 in a chroot environment? [19:44] Seveas: 0.0.0.0 [19:44] Seveas: maybe? [19:44] Alberto: and only that one? There should be another line with a different IP [19:44] sounds like theres no default gateway [19:44] How can I automatically tile two windows with hotkeys? [19:45] eg, a terminal and a browser.. have them each go top/bottom on my screen and take up half [19:45] Seveas: I have two, and the two have 0.0.0.0 [19:45] hitsujiTMO: yeah, I was going to suggest rogue dhcp server as well :) [19:45] Alberto: is there anything set in /etc/network/interfaces [19:45] Alberto: or /etc/network/interfaces.d/* [19:45] Alberto: ok, are you using DHCP at all on this server or a static configuration? [19:45] Seveas: is static configuration [19:45] hitsujiTMO: let me check [19:45] No protocol specified xhost: unable to open display ":0.0" [19:46] unstable: hold super-key and read the description [19:46] Seveas: You know, I check and the interface is not eth0, the name is docker0. Maybe is there the problem? [19:46] ah, it's not a server at all, it's a docker instance [19:47] Seveas: no no, but I have ubuntu server in the computer [19:47] treehouse: i've wrestled with chroots and Xorg before - all i'll say, best of luck [19:47] Seveas: And I'm not using docker. [19:47] Seveas: I tried It, but I didn't use It [19:47] Alberto: is this a vps? [19:48] ok, well, it screwed with your network config [19:48] k1l: That option isn't listed. [19:48] no idea how to undo that, I never used docker [19:48] hitsujiTMO: No man, Is a machine [19:48] unstable: ctrl+alt+numkey on keaypad [19:48] hitsujiTMO: is not a virtual machine [19:49] is installing xorg-server on a chroot machine a bad idea? [19:49] hitsujiTMO: In /etc/network/interface I have the interface of eth0 and lo [19:50] k1l: holy crap [19:50] I desperately need some audio help. Anyone? [19:50] k1l: Thanks a lot [19:50] Alberto: is eth0 configured for static or dhcp? [19:50] treehouse: no. but the permission thing, is rather non-trivial. magic-bit, or something-or-other is involved. [19:50] I desperately need some audio help. Anyone? [19:50] hitsujiTMO: dhcp [19:51] Seveas: I was wrong. eth0 is set dhcp [19:51] Alberto: does eth0 show up in: ifconfig -a [19:52] hitsujiTMO: no man [19:52] I desperately need some audio help. Anyone? [19:52] jaccarmac: consider, giving some details (might help) [19:53] hey how can we uninstall the wireless driver in ubuntu13,04..?? [19:53] Alberto: what driver is it using? lspci -k | grep Ethernet -A2 | grep driver [19:54] zykotick9: Last night, Proteus killed my battery. Now my sound is broken. As far as I can tell, even though I have a stereo device plugged in, Ubuntu is outputting mono.

[19:55] jaccarmac: i certainly have no idea, but at least the channel now has some idea of your issue. to bad you included my nick though. === hdevalence|away is now known as hdevalence [19:55] then how to upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10..??? [19:55] ah i did find it the java control panel is in x64 install as jcontrol, i wonder why everything i found before said it was not avaible [19:56] openjdk and icedtea did not seem to work :( [19:56] well openjdk/jre* [19:56] Alberto: is the name being forced in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules ??? maybe disable /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and reboot [19:57] Grrr... [19:57] hitsujiTMO: let me check [19:57] asam0494: check factoid for upgrade instructions [19:58] hitsujiTMO: Idk what I have to see there. I don't see nothing weird. [19:59] hitsujiTMO: NAME:'eth0' [19:59] hitsujiTMO: Is that OK? [19:59] Alberto: how many devices are there? just the 1? [19:59] hitsujiTMO: two [19:59] hitsujiTMO: etho and eth1 [20:00] Alberto: ok, whats listed in: ls /sys/class/net/ [20:00] so .. stupid n00b linux question i am sure ... So I downloaded firefox27 and extracted .. standing in firefox folder. As root I can go ./firefox and get v27, if I just type firefox i get the old version... Okay sorta got that.. However When i am NOT root ./firefox and just firefox starts the old version both times... what gives ? [20:00] is my situation unusual or expected behavior? I have a box w/ 4tb hard drive. I install ubuntu on it using atomic automatic partitioning method which just just creates 3 partitions (~1 MB partition for grub_bios , 70gb for swap and the rest for rootfs), upon first installation where there had no prior file system on the disk, the system boots up fine. HOWEVRE, if I ever reinstall a fresh same version of Ubuntu (precise amd64) [20:00] TOP of that , even tho it removes all existing partitions and reformats - after installation upon first boot I will get sent to "grub_console>" . The ONLY way I've found to do a fresh reinstall succesfully is to boot into livecd and then "parted label msdos" first then do the reinstall. [20:01] jtran: Whats "atomic automatic partitioning method"? [20:01] hitsujiTMO: docker0 eth1 lo lxcbr0 [20:01] Last night, Proteus killed my battery. Now my sound is broken. As far as I can tell, even though I have a stereo device plugged in, Ubuntu is outputting mono. [20:01] I can't hear some sounds (L and R channels cancelling one another), some are broken (partial cancelling), and the test sounds in Sound Preferences play through both channels, even though they should only play through one. [20:01] bekks: it basically chooses "guided entire disk" [20:02] bekks: i refer it to atomic partition method because that's the line i usually use in a preseed to choose that option [20:02] Alberto: are you sure you are not in a container? do you have physical access to the machine? [20:02] but in this particular case i'm doing manual install from 'retail' iso [20:02] retail meaning plain vanilla iso downloaded from the ubuntu website [20:03] jtran: Looks like you are using GPT in your automated installation. [20:03] hitsujiTMO: I actually using the machine to run all that commands bro. Because I cannot access across the network [20:03] bekks: right and i think ubuntu is doing that automatically cuz it's creating one large ~3.6tb fs right? [20:03] i need gpt for that i think right? [20:03] Last night, Proteus killed my battery. Now my sound is broken. As far as I can tell, even though I have a stereo device plugged in, Ubuntu is outputting mono. [20:03] I can't hear some sounds (L and R channels cancelling one another), some are broken (partial cancelling), and the test sounds in Sound Preferences play through both channels, even though they should only play through one. [20:03] hitsujiTMO: these commands (sorry) [20:03] Alberto: ok. is eth1 showing up in ifconfig? [20:04] I am also in the audio group, if that helps. [20:04] hitsujiTMO: eht1 apears with -a flag [20:04] Alberto: ok. edit /etc/network/interfaces change eth0 to eth1 [20:04] hitsujiTMO: ok [20:04] bekks: so i guess my question is - when usin GPT in an ubuntu install, is it expected behavior that if i were to reinstall a fresh ubuntu that i'd need to blow away the GPT label prior to reinstall? [20:04] jtran: No. I does use GPT because you are using the "atomic automated partitioning method" which creates a 3.6TB partition - while the MSDOS label can only handle partitions up to 2TB. [20:05] bekks: right, so anything larger than 2tb requires GPT right? [20:05] jtran: If you want to use MSDOS label on the new installation - yes that is expected. [20:05] hitsujiTMO: done! Do I have restart It? [20:05] Last night, Proteus killed my battery. Now my sound is broken. As far as I can tell, even though I have a stereo device plugged in, Ubuntu is outputting mono. I can't hear some sounds (L and R channels cancelling one another), some are broken (partial cancelling), and the test sounds in Sound Preferences play through both channels, even though they should only play through one. I am also in the audio group, if that helps. [20:05] Alberto: yup [20:05] Anyone else getting a Steam repo error? My 13.10 system just started throwing a "Hash Sum mismatch" when updating my apt data [20:05] hitsujiTMO: gimme a second [20:05] bekks: aah i see. therfore anytime I reinstall on top of a disk that had a GPT fs on it, I have to blow away the GPT label. [20:06] Hello guys. How can I disable a special warning in Squid? [20:06] bekks: would you happen to know how that's possible to blow away a GPT label via preseed? [20:06] troyready: It works perfectly for me! [20:06] troyready: no issue here. must be an issue with the cdn mirror you're hitting [20:06] Last night, Proteus killed my battery. Now my sound is broken. As far as I can tell, even though I have a stereo device plugged in, Ubuntu is outputting mono. I can't hear some sounds (L and R channels cancelling one another), some are broken (partial cancelling), and the test sounds in Sound Preferences play through both channels, even though they should only play through one. I am also in the audio group, if that helps. [20:06] jtran: I never dealt with GPT labels in preseeds, sorry. [20:06] hitsujiTMO: finished [20:06] bekks: thanks for clearing up the GPT thing for me tho. [20:06] Alberto: is it working now? [20:07] !repeate | jaccarmac [20:07] hitsujiTMO: I did a ping to google and doesn't work [20:07] !repeat | jaccarmac [20:07] jaccarmac: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [20:07] hitsujiTMO: =( [20:07] bekks: is there any cleaner way of blowing away gpt label vs how i'm doing it ? "parted mklabel msdos" ? [20:07] Alberto: again: ifconfig [20:07] Alberto: if eth1 showing up? [20:07] is* [20:07] hitsujiTMO: yes [20:08] Can someone help? [20:08] Alberto: ok, getting somewhere. do you have an ip? [20:08] Ah; thanks guys for checking on the steam thing. [20:08] jaccarmac: What is proteus and how did it kill your battery? [20:08] ubottu: Trying not to spam. I will slow down my pings. [20:08] hitsujiTMO: sorry, I didn't catch that [20:08] jaccarmac: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:09] jhutchins: A game. It drained my battery really fast, so I crashed. [20:09] hitsujiTMO: I have the interface docker0 with an IP [20:09] Alberto: does eth1 get an ip? does it show an ip in ifconfig ? [20:09] After that, sound was broken. So I'm guessing that's the cause. [20:09] Did you install it from Ubuntu packages? [20:09] hitsujiTMO: oh! no, there is no IP in eth1 [20:10] Alberto: ok. when you edited /etc/network/interfaces did you change both instances of eth0 to eth1? [20:10] jaccarmac: So power loss/crash, now sound is bad. Game had control of sound when it crashed. Were you in wine or was the game running natively? [20:11] hitsujiTMO: w8! [20:11] hitsujiTMO: I did a sudo ifup eht1 === pcdummy is now known as Fast[BDC] [20:11] hitsujiTMO: and something happen. Let me check [20:11] hello, want to install Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS but the installer won't go to the choosing wath to do with partitions screen. [20:12] hitsujiTMO: yup! I have an IP now in eth1!!! [20:12] can I use Xnest to prevent skype from spying on my screen? [20:12] jhutchins: Native. [20:12] Alberto: check /etc/network/interfaces again so. should be 2 lines fot eth1. auto eth1 and iface eth1 inet dhcp [20:13] I have resolution problems for both Lubuntu and Xubuntu. Can't get my VM's to run in full 1366x768. [20:13] Alberto: did you swap in a different network card at some point? [20:13] jaccarmac: Did it run a disk check when you booted again? Have you rebooted since you discovered the problem? === anto is now known as Mongo44 [20:13] what can I do to get the partitions screen? [20:13] jhutchins: I did, and it got fixed. I have rebooted several times. As far as I can tell, only sound is broken. And, as I said, it is a *very* specific problem. [20:14] jaccarmac: Have you started the game since the crash? [20:14] hitsujiTMO: I just have one line with eth1, that has dhcp. I moved the hard disk to another tower [20:14] hitsujiTMO: that was the problem? [20:14] jhutchins: No. === lenny is now known as oiuhefke [20:15] hitsujiTMO: I connected to the server by ssh now =) [20:15] Alberto: you need auto eth1 aswell... that automatically does the ifup eth1 when its finds a connection [20:15] jhutchins: I will try that now, and see. === Shapeshi1ter is now known as Shapeshifter [20:15] hello is there a way to know the real age of an image? I know it is an image I took from desktop though with an older ubuntu how can I tell? list order by date only gives me the modified date, that is the day I installed ubuntu 12.04 [20:15] jaccarmac: On the theory that the game did something to the sound and didn't clean up after itself because it crashed, let's try starting the game, seeing of the sound works in-game, messing with the in-game sound settings, and exiting the game properly. [20:15] Alberto: can you pastebin the persistence rules. might give us an idea of why the device name changed [20:16] streulma: Windows involved in this install ? [20:16] hitsujiTMO: let me see. How can I see the presistence rules? [20:16] Bashing-om: n [20:16] Bashing-om: no [20:16] st [20:16] Alberto: ahh wait. swapping the hdd ... i see ... yeah different mac address would cause the different name [20:16] streulma: What partitioning screen? WHat do you want to do? [20:17] hitsujiTMO: oh, I see [20:17] hutshins: install Ubuntu, it came after Preparing for installation Ubuntu [20:17] Alberto: the persistence rule is the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file [20:17] OK, did you check that the .iso file was good (md5sum) and can you boot the install(DVD ?) into the "try ubuntu" mode ? [20:18] hitsujiTMO: so... When I moved the hard disk to another tower, the SO check that the MAC was direfent, and that is why the interface changed? [20:18] Alberto: yup [20:18] yes Bashing-om [20:18] Does anyone know where Dell keeps their drivers for Ubuntu? [20:19] hitsujiTMO: [20:19] hitsujiTMO: http://pastebin.com/naW8pu4p [20:19] anyone knows how to set my cpu on performance governor without getting back to ondemand after restart? [20:19] jhutchins: There are no in-game settings. Sound works perfectly, but nothing has changed on the outside. [20:19] streulma: well, should install straight forward, what option did you choose to install with ? (erase disk and use the entire disk ?)?? [20:19] I have ubuntu 13.10 64 bits, apt-get install skype doesn't work, and, on skype.com they dont offer for 13.10 :/ [20:20] hitsujiTMO: did you see that? [20:20] jaccarmac: Ok, so you started the game and quit and it exited normally, but the sound is still bad? [20:20] jaccarmac: In-game sound is good, but sound from other sources is bad? [20:21] jhutchins: Yes. [20:21] Alberto: yup. now, if you want eth1 to go back to being eth0 then delete the persistence rules file, and change every instance of eth1 in /etc/network/interfaces back to eth0 [20:21] I take that since no one responding that no one knows where Dell keeps their drivers for Ubuntu. It is for the 2330dn on 12.04 [20:21] streulma: OK, did you check that the .iso file was good (md5sum) and can you boot the install(DVD ?) into the "try ubuntu" mode ? [20:21] Bashing-om: aha, I think it is because I ejected my other USB drive [20:22] jaccarmac: Which release are you on? [20:22] jhutchins: 13.10 [20:22] st, sory bout the double, OK,, what is the install medium ? USB ? [20:22] hitsujiTMO: well... Thank you very much man!!

[21:45] To all those who have listened to me rant about my audio problems, I have an update. As it turns out, the problem is not with my system configuration. It appears to be with my headphones. I can get my laptop speakers working. I can duplicate the problem on a live CD, but the headphones work properly when plugged into a Windows box. Any more suggestions? [21:45] super + tab switch app via luncher [21:46] Hi, there is a separate channel for developers? I have big problem with gl3w and bumblebee but the strange thing is the program has stopped working suddenly... [21:46] I modified the xorg.conf file that still hasn't fixed my resolution. I can only get 640x480. What gives? [21:46] jaccarmac: use alsamixer. You'll find that the headphone is muted [21:46] Mongo44: what did you change? [21:46] ElysiumNet: short answer, if from the command line the file was removed, it is gone gone. If the trash has been "emptied" it is gone gone. That said if the file is important enough, and you are wuilling to expend the effort to realy learn this operating system, and that file's data has not been over riden, Maybe. [21:46] hoverboard: Different media types could effect speed and if you want to experiment, by all means do it. There will be some difference but other factors effect speed of running computer applications as well. [21:47] I deleted the whole thing and used the one from my host Wheezy which works. [21:47] hello [21:48] I'm inside a chroot and for some reason even though i have a policy-rc.d with a mod of 0755 my service that I'm installing thru apt-get still starts up [21:48] its a java service [21:48] is there some other monitoring daemon that's causing this? [21:48] hoverboard, just to interject, there's going to be tradeoffs no matter what optimization is made. Some optimizations can be detrimental to others. [21:48] others depend on the type of medium. writing temp and log files to a USB drive is a quick way to kill the drive [21:49] so they're usually better off stored in a ram disk, for example [21:49] Seveas: Not true, actually. As I said before, I can dupe the problem on a live CD but not another OS. The headphones are actually working, the mixing on them is just screwed up. That is, I can hear sound if the stream is skewed toward one channel, but if the channels are balanced, they mute one another. [21:49] but that has the negative effect of having no long-term storage for log files [21:49] Mongo44: have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution/#Adding_undetected_resolutions [21:49] jaccarmac: hmm, run alsamixer and make a screenshot. I'm curious :) [21:50] bekks: I'm talking to one, and he said that I have to build apt, becauce it's not in there. do you know what to do? [21:50] altcoin_: cat /etc/issue #What does that say?

[22:14] ubottu it`s a bot? [22:14] ilarion: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [22:14] 1 is it!:) [22:14] ilarion: ok that you mean ^^. sry [22:14] such as "photorec /d directoryname [22:14] just run it. [22:14] follow the prompts [22:14] usr13: really? Is it so important to do this udate bevor? [22:15] it tells me no harddisk found... [22:15] you can choose to look for specific file types [22:15] what command are you running? [22:15] "photorec" [22:15] lickalott: in the past. And now I'm trying it with a new coin [22:16] testdisk does the same [22:16] usr13, halfburnttoast, thanks for your responses [22:16] hi [22:17] altcoin_, just looked into an R90 card. stinking expensive for the higherend ones. [22:17] it's not quite what I was asking, but there's a lot that is NOT in your answer that helps me to understand that Ubuntu probably doesn't optimize for one medium or the next [22:17] hi how your doing? [22:17] ElysiumNet, i haven't used it in a while. check on google for specifics on how to run for your needs. === gbyers[Away] is now known as g_byers [22:18] ElysiumNet, here's a start - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387922 [22:19] Is anyone doing good here? [22:20] lickalott: the partition is a simfs thing [22:20] hi guys, when I tried to install irssi on ubuntu 12.04, got error 'irssi : Depends: libperl5.14 (>= 5.14.2) but it is not going to be installed' [22:20] when i try to install libperl15.14, got error ' libperl5.14 : Depends: perl-base (= 5.14.2-6ubuntu2.2) but 5.14.2-6ubuntu2.3 is to be installed' [22:21] any idea how to solve this? [22:23] ftfids: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f install === Horse_ is now known as Horse [22:23] usr13: tried that, nothing happens [22:24] ftfids: looks like an update recently hit the repos, your mirror might be behid. === Horse is now known as Horse_ [22:24] ftfids: sudo apt-get autoremove [22:24] Anyone can help me with bumblebee? Eh... gl3w can't init when using optirun command, but works - suddenly, stop working :) [22:24] Pici: how do I change the mirror? [22:24] ftfids: on my 12.04 install, libperl15.14 depends on perl-base (= 5.14.2-6ubuntu2.4) [22:24] usr13: still nothing happens [22:25] Pici probably has the answer.... [22:25] Pici: right, can you tell me more? [22:25] ftfids: either use the options in the software center to change your repos, or modify /etc/apt/sources.list to point at a different server. [22:25] I'm a server guy, I don't remember what the GUI option for this looks like anymore. [22:25] :) [22:26] Someone else might be able to point you in the right direction for that :) [22:27] hi [22:27] what is the bug reporting tool ? [22:27] I want to report a chromium bug [22:28] ubuntu-bug [22:28] http://goo.gl/Z9QJBV [22:28] http://goo.gl/Z9QJBV === Neozonz is now known as Guest99842 [22:33] Hi there, my computer overheats and shuts down frequently. As found in syslog, it is "thermal_zone1" How do I monitor this temperature? I've found the command sensors, but there are a number of different temperature groups, any of which could be thermal_zone1 [22:34] samineru: Is it a laptop or desktop? [22:35] samineru: Either way, what you need to do is find a way to make it run cooler. [22:36] samineru: General cleaning inside the PC, clean the heat sink, apply new thermal grease, etc... [22:36] usr13 It is a laptop. I have tried cleaning the fan and heat sink. Is replacing the thermal paste something an amateur is likely to be able to do succesfully? [22:37] I did a side-by-side install with windows, but customized partitioning first to use LVM for everything but /boot. But when I restart, I get the windows boot loader. I wonder if some sort of grub-install is all I need... [22:38] samineru: It depends. Some laptops are hard to work on, but getting down to the processor and applying new thermal grease is pretty extensive operation on most laptops. === Red_M is now known as Guest67938 [22:39] samineru: http://www.howtogeek.com/67660/how-to-diagnose-and-fix-an-overheating-laptop/ [22:41] hitsujiTMO: Hi. would you have time to help me some more? [22:41] samineru: If you scroll down most of the way, you come to cooling devices such as "Laptop Cooling Stand" and "Laptop Cooling Pad" etc.. [22:41] !bug | jirido [22:41] jirido: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [22:42] usr13: no i dont think its a bug in ubuntu [22:42] usr13 , I attempted to clean the fan once without removing it, I may go back and try to do a better job, as looking at documentation suggests that it's not that much harder. I currently have it on an improvised stand [22:43] Is latest desktop ubuntu good for 10 years old laptop (single core, 2gb ram) or is there a semi-light distro that would work better (not something drastic for 1990 computers) [22:43] *and replace the thermal grease as well [22:43] root@ubuntu:~# vgchange -a y ; mount /dev/modwork/root /mnt ; grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda [22:43] let's hope that worked... [22:48] To get codecs, we still go for restricted extras ? (ubuntu 13.10, 64 bits) it said if I install that I gotta remove something, so I want to make sure [22:49] usr13, long term solution aside, my current coping mechanism of monitoring temperature via lm-sensors does not seem to be giving me information on the temperature causing thermal shutdown. Do you know of any alternative sources of that information? [22:51] z_-: have you seen lubuntu and xubuntu? [22:53] is there a command for seeing the name of the loaded keymap? [22:53] samineru: No. I've always just addressed the overheating problems as hardware issue(s). [22:54] samineru: If the PC is shutting down when it overheats, that's all I expect of the software. From that point on, it's up to me to make it quit overehating. [22:55] SchrodingersScat: yes, which would you recommend? Lubuntu is more hardcore than Xubuntu right? [22:56] Ubuntu 13.10 AMD64 on Intel and Nvidia and Intel, nouveau driver as can't make proprietary function, sometimes, about every other time, when I turn on my computer and log in the screen stays black with just a cursor and I have to restart. [22:57] z_-: I haven't used lubuntu, in xubuntu now, iirc lubuntu is the lightest. [22:58] It didn't always do this but it started after the last time I tried and failed to use the nvidia driver, I thought I had reset everything as for nouveau and can't find the problem. [23:01] Hi. I'm getting console (terminal) messages in Icelandic and while I understand the language it just feels weird. My $LANGUAGE is set to "en_US:is:en" but it should just be "en_US:en" but I can't for the life of me find out where this is being set to that value!? [23:01] misternumberone: Did you rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? [23:01] My /etc/default/locale contains LANGUAGE="en_US:en" === X0_ is now known as anonimo [23:01] SchrodingersScat: Thanks. I'll live CD both and see what's up. Regardless, good choices ? [23:01] usr13: yes [23:02] misternumberone: what does lspci say about your video card? [23:03] misternumberone: I'd suggest uninstalling the nvidia packages that you have now and do it manually. [23:03] usr13: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) [23:03] AND 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108M [GeForce GT 540M] (rev a1) [23:03] misternumberone: 32bit or 64? [23:04] usr13: I have no proprietary nvidia packages [23:04] usr13: have uninstalled all [23:04] usr13: 64 [23:05] misternumberone: Desktop? === GTB3NW is now known as GTB3NW_AWAY [23:05] z_-: trying them out is the right path, I'm very happy with xubuntu though, it's my default now. [23:06] usr13: notebook, designed for nvidia optimus but don't want to use that, have been trying to ONLY use NVIDIA GPU but I can't seem to get anything except vanilla nouveau to work === scottb is now known as zz_scottb [23:06] Is there a 32bit version of Ubuntu Server 13.10 available for download? [23:07] misternumberone: http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/72250 [23:08] usr13: are you sure? I tried this before and it did not work for me, also I have read that using driver straight from nvidia not in package is bad [23:08] hello === a_ is now known as Guest17104 [23:08] misternumberone: It's up to you [23:08] Alt+mouse click moves the window, how do I turn it off [23:08] Is there a 32 bit version of Ubuntu Server available for download? [23:09] usr13: ok [23:10] When I run apt-get update I get a message about duplicate sources with a suggestion that I may want to run apt-get update. These appear to be system sources. I don't like messages like these. Can I clean up this situation? [23:11] zacktu: remove duplicate sources [23:11] it's that simple [23:12] Is there a 32 bit version of Ubuntu 13.10 Server I can download? [23:12] should be [23:12] nope, just 64bit [23:12] I went to the download page and there seems to be no way to select. [23:13] Glitchmanbeta: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server #Choose 32-bit [23:13] usr13: not there for 13.10 [23:13] usr13 Thanks for your time and help, have a good day [23:14] Glitchmanbeta: ubuntu-12.04.4-server-i386.iso [23:14] usr13:I can only use 12.04? [23:14] ikonia: Glitchmanbeta Oh, ok 13.10 I don't know. I just do LTS [23:15] Glitchmanbeta: For server, yes, use LTS (good advise) [23:15] http://releases.ubuntu.com/saucy/ [23:15] there you go [23:15] its there [23:15] what a stupid thing to do, make the build, but then hide it [23:15] when did ubuntu switch to efi kernel?

[23:16] zacktu: they are not software sources, they are directories [23:17] linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-15-generic.efi.signed [23:17] tellone: it only installs that if you're on an efi system [23:18] ikonia: i thought that the ellipses indicated sort of a path -- anyway there are directories with almost identical names -- one with i386 and one with amd64 -- [23:18] since which version, grub2 should be able to load an none efi stubed [23:19] tellone: any === ubuntu is now known as Guest29774 === robher_ is now known as robher [23:29] hi [23:34] hey [23:34] Zooklubba: I think what you are looking at are 32-bit and 64-bit libraries.
