viper_67Ubuntu1, I see what your saying.  Could you just put all of your pd'f files together in a folder and use gzip to compress them00:42

she_dyedno, she was giving more info02:22
she_dyedok02:22
somsipz1haze1: looking around, the standard suggestion is to reinstall, eg: http://is.gd/ZuuXTh http://is.gd/jGJMx4 http://is.gd/bq0fED02:24
z1haze1yea except02:24
somsipz1haze1: searches for 'ubuntu fix standard root permissions' are giving lots of results if you research that yourself. But you will be checking and fixing a lot of directories, which is why reinstalling from a backup is recommended02:25
z1haze1i dont have the virtual keyboard access or w/e and the guy is just blowing me off about it02:25
z1haze1therse a lot of information that i cannot phsyically download and reupload, its too much so how can i back it up?02:26
somsipz1haze1: I don't understand much of what you're saying there. Virtual keyboard? w/e? It sounds like you've messed up a server and the owner/your client is not happy about it?02:28
z1haze1no he just doesnt care02:28
z1haze1he gave me the server to use, he has a lot of them02:28
z1haze1and yesterday morning when i was in here getting help, they asked if i could get access to the virutal keyboard or something to do a clean reinstall or something.. and i cannot do that02:29
z1haze1i only have root via ssh02:29
she_dyedburn a CD/DVD with the files you cba to put online, etc z1haze102:29
somsipz1haze1: anyway - it;s immaterial. You either reinstall and restore from backup, or you will have to research further to find advice on exactly what folders should have what permissions, and change them back.02:29

MysticalBurrito_no I did not install with grub02:58
MysticalBurrito_also my laptop is missing it's onboard display so I am forced to use an external monitor02:58
gutheadMysticalBurrito_: did you instlal a boot manager that offers the recovery option at all? If not, then you will need to resort to loading a liveCD environment and then chrooting into your system, most likely02:58
gutheadinstall*02:59
MysticalBurrito_it's very difficult to get it to boot to CD02:59
MysticalBurrito_I've been trying all day to get it to work03:00
she_dyedwhy, have you a docking station for your laptop03:00
gutheadMysticalBurrito_: well if you can't select a runlevel and you can't select a recovery mode from boot, you are running out of options, frankly03:00
MysticalBurrito_I know03:00
gutheadMysticalBurrito_: would a usb be better?03:00
MysticalBurritoI just found if I press ctrl alt del my computer will restart03:02
gutheadMysticalBurrito_: another question that might be worth asking, did you install sshd by any chance? if your system is booting up partially and it's only keeping you from runlevel or recovery becaus eof something weird, you might be able to ssh into the laptop - although I wouldn't expect you to have sshd installed on a laptop <_<03:02
MysticalBurritono, a normal HDD03:03
she_dyedyou never know03:04
gutheadMysticalBurrito_: erm, I think you might be mistakening sshd with SSD. sshd is the daemon for hosting ssh connections03:05
gutheadMysticalBurrito_: if you happened to have sshd installed on a laptop (sshd is intended for remote server access) you could use another machine (or putty in windows) to *possibly* access the failing machine by 'ssh user@laptop.ip.address.or.hostname"03:06
gutheadMysticalBurrito: definitely not intended usage, but I'm just scrapping ideas off the bottom of the barrel since you mentioned booting to livecd was difficult03:07

qinWorm_in_a_Box: there is shell extention "Hide Top bar" installable via ff, and "tweaks"04:31

zsw_how do i get my root password04:38
Ben64zsw_: all you need to do is "sudo <command>" you shouldn't need to be root ever04:38
mitchelwbI assume if I had the machine set up to dual boot to windows on a different partition and tried to do what I did, it wouldn't have overwritten my windows partition would it?04:38
zsw_but the artical im reading says su04:39
Ben64zsw_: well then you might not want to be following that, it likely isn't for ubuntu. what are you trying to do?04:39
mitchelwbBen64, I expected it to overwrite all the data on the primary partition.  overwriting data and merging partitions are different processes and I didn't expect it to do both.04:40
MACscrmerging partitions? wth are you talking about04:40
offthenonI have to agree somewhat with mitchelwb here.  Overwrite and wipe or two different things04:41

MACscrqin: if you delete a partition in the process, its not a merge04:49
mitchelwboffthenon as part of the process I've gone through this weekend, I now have a bootable partitionwizard disc.04:50
qinMACscr: I knida agree04:50
fibz_i recommend Redo! or systemrescuecd for that04:50
DenSaakalteHey, everyone. I'm having an issue with IRC right now, and xchat... I don't understand why, since it was working fine this morning: Every time I try to connect to ANY server using the 6667 port, it crashes. Some server don't allow any other port aside from 6667, so I can't connect there for the time being.04:50
offthenonMACscr: if you WIPE a partion it's not a merge.  I agree with that.  It is possible to delete and restore a partition table without data loss04:51
mitchelwbMACscr that's a good point.  I've been saying that my three partitions were merged, but I suppose, in reality, they weren't.  Instead, I should say that all three of my partitions were removed, and one giant partition was inserted in their place.04:51
apb1963so as long as we're talking about partitions.... if I want to clone a  partition... should I  create a partition on the new disk before I clone it?  Or will clonezilla just do ithe right thing?  I assume it will do the right thing... but since I've never used it before... I'm asking if anyone knows ofr sure04:51
=== NaStYdoG is now known as Guest60299
mitchelwbEither way, I lost all the data that was on the two secondary partitions04:51
Ben64mitchelwb: you should pay more attention to the installer, it doesn't do anything without notifying you first04:51
Worm_in_a_Box When I make tenderloin steaks with gorgonzola sauce, should I cook the meat with the sauce a bit, or just throw the sauce over the meat?04:52
apb1963mitchelwb: should not have happened.... overwrite seems drastic to me... unless it fully explained what it was going to do.04:52
offthenonmitchelwb: wait... what were we trying to help with here? a /home partition04:52
MACscroffthenon: might want to read that entire article. That merges D and E and puts the data on C04:52
ablyssain't nothing good on chat tonight.  ubuntu entertain me plz04:52
mitchelwbBen64, as a result of all the nonsense I've gone through trying to recover my file, my machine doesn't boot again, so I need to reinstall again.  This time, I plan to read through everything it does with a keen eye to make sure I didn't miss anything.04:52
qinmitchelwb: and where the lost data supposed to be? If you overwrited partition tables, use testdisk to see what you acctually can recover.04:52
offthenonMACscr: that is clearly a typo04:53
MACscri dont think so04:53
qinmitchelwb: instead of reinstalling use live usb, so you will keep some chances of recovery missing files04:53
mitchelwbqin, that's what I've been using.  testdisk comes with a utility called photorec that allows you to search and recover files.04:53
mitchelwbqin, I've not done it via usb, is there a difference between usb and cd?04:54
=== joel is now known as Guest7322
DenSaakalteSee, it happened again :(04:55
offthenonMACscr: it says drive F will be stored to c04:55
offthenonMACscr: the example is merging E and F04:55
qinmitchelwb: yes, you can same some results on usb... has testdisk seen old partition table, before you overwrited them04:55
mitchelwbtestdisk didn't really return anything, but I wasn't as concerned about restoring the partitions... I just wanted the spreadsheet that I track my bills with.  (don't ask me why I didn't have that on the NAS!)04:56
qinoffthenon: MACscr is purytan, and merging do not equal copynig deleting and resising and moving.04:57
mitchelwbwould I be better off to boot to partitionwizard and set up the partitions I want, then boot to the live cd to do a clean install?  I don't intend to often find myself in a position where I need to do more than just upgrade my OS, but if this happened again, it'd be nice to know I could do it easily without this type of issue again.04:58

DenSaakalteSorry, sorry...05:18
DenSaakalteI was going to say, I think I figured it out, it must be something with my user account, because I logged in as root, started xchat and could connect to an irc server using 6667 without problems05:19
fibz_there is an option to set to force ident on your account so other people cant use the name for more than a few seconds. dont remember how, ask in #freenode05:19
Flat4ForLifeyou register it with nickserv05:20
fibz_yup something is wrong. simple fix is to sudo apt-get purge xchat && sudo apt-get install xchat05:20
fibz_Flat4ForLife, nope, i never ident and i have not taken the time to set the option to force ident so any one can use my nicks05:20
DenSaakalteGood idea... Hopefully my settings will remain there, right?05:20
fibz_no they will not. thats what purge does,05:20
qinwhat was the idea..05:21
DenSaakalteI'll save them somewhere safe05:21
Flat4ForLifei was just saying to do so, you register your nick with nickserv05:21
DenSaakalteIf that works then something is off with the config05:21
DenSaakalteI'll be back in a bit05:21

ocxHi, i have an ubuntu system 12.04 to which students can come and plug in their usb sticks. When the usb stick is plugged for the first time it gets assigned partition 1 on /media/usb1 and partition 2 on /media/usb2, now if the usb is removed and replugged sometimes partition1 goes into /media/usb2 and partition2 goes into /media/usb1. Usb sticks cannot be identified since any kind of usb stick can be brought by any student,we dont have 08:06
ocxWhat we want to achieve is when the usb stick is replugged, the partitions need to be mapped as they were initially mapped on the first initial usb insertion. Thank you08:06

icerootmega1: and make a backup first!09:56
celrocmega1: Hmm, you could try booting from a LiveCD and using gparted to modify your partition setup (shrink other partitions, and then grow /dev/sda1).  Backup up all important data on all your partitions to a separate disk before you try it, though!09:57

cfhowlettTheJoker, this occurs quite often with windows/ubuntu dualboots.  I *think* if you set both clocks to update automatically and you've set your reigons correctly, they'll stay proper.  I forget how I fixed it, but it's been working for over a year now10:17

ubottuob1wanken00by, please see my private message11:51
k1l_!notunity | slick11:51
ubottuslick: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default.  To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown.11:51
Rula7what about individual programs? for example transmission?11:51
Rula7ahh11:51

ubottuob1wanken00by: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz11:52
Rula7where would i look for transmission's log file?11:52
RoryRula7: Yeah, for example, my Deluge (bittorrent client) pops up a notification when the torrent completes. The notification itsself isn't logged anywhere. However, I have deluge set up to log events to its own file11:52
slickyeah... but they still don't look like minimalistic and clean debian 6.0.6 :-)11:52
RoryRula7: I doubt Transmission has its own log file by default. What are you trying to achieve btw, there might be a more elegant solution11:52
k1l_slick: please rant to the gnome boys about that. that is in no way ubuntus fault11:53
slickI don't judge anybody... no worries11:53
Roryslick: Honestly, Mate desktop is Gnome 2. Once you set up the panels on the top and bottom, and put in a more traditional applications-places-system menu, you can get basically a desktop that feels like Ubuntu 10.04 glory days, but with up-to-date programs11:54
TigerBloodbilly zane! the phantom is the best!11:54
slick@Rory, yep11:55
k1l_slick: "hate" and "crap" sound quite judging to me. you were given technical solutions but you seem to just make your disappointment clear. that is not handled by the ubuntu support.11:55

somsipCiSense: local kernel [0.000000] will be the first things to start. So your crash should be the last thing before that12:53

Hixis there some issue with tab complete when using ssh 13.04 seems to keep falling over. No way I'm going to do-release-upgrade if it falls over like this13:46
ikoniado-release-upgrade does not use tab complete13:48
HixI'm not talking about using that for the command. I'm talking about it kills the ssh terminal regularly.13:49
HixHence unwilling to upgrade over ssh as it seems very fragile. Its a headless server13:49
hitsujiTMOHix: use screen or tmux13:50
DANtheBEASTmanin my experience it's never a painless experience with do-release-upgrade.13:50
hitsujiTMOHix: also backup first13:50
ikoniaHix: tab completion failure is often caused by a bad connections/slow connection, if your connection is dropping I suspect you have a bad connection in general13:50
Hixscreen not solving issues, the individual screens seem to freeze regularly. you can switch but the actual terminals are dead, when you open a new one it is already dead13:51
Hixikonia Ubuntu is on a VM just ssh'd from the box actually running the VM and tab complete made it fall over instantly. Can that be connection?13:56

pg__Hi, I have a laptop with nvidia+optimus and a displayport and a HDMI port ; I'd like to use the displayport but it is not detected by Ubuntu 13.10 ; any link on the web ? I don't have my laptop with me right now, I'm just looking for a tutorial ; the one i found so far are not helpful; thanks.14:08
Night0wlI can help pg__14:09
Night0wlYou need to install a linux distro which isnt shit, like debian14:09
Night0wlor gentoo14:10
pg__why not. I'll try gentoo ; I need bumblebee on this laptop and i had not managed to install it with debian (as far as i remember, its a long time ago).14:12
hitsujiTMOpg__: never mind the troll14:12
pg__ah ok its a troll, so forget my answer :)14:13
hitsujiTMOpg__: is xorg detecting the displayport, does it show up in: xrandr14:14
pg__no xrandr does not detect the displayport.14:14
hitsujiTMOpg__: is there any info on it in your xorg log: please pastebin the content of: /var/log/Xorg.0.log14:15
pg__the reason i'd like to use the displayport is that my monitor can work up to 144Hz ; i use this frequence with another PC on linux connected to the same monitor by dvi-dual. with hdmi, i can't go beyond 60Hz14:15
pg__i don't have my laptop with me, i was asking a question just to have a link on the web i would not be aware of; i will re-ask my question later.14:17
gordonjcppg__: HDMI probably won't go beyond 60Hz, since it's used for video14:17
gordonjcppg__: refresh rates are irrelevant for flat panel displays anyway14:18

eskimioActionParsnip, awesome, i'll check it out15:48
she_dyedeskimio: normally a script's just text sitting there till root or the owner changes an attribute to make it executable15:49
eskimioshe_dyed - okay, makes sense15:50

she_dyedsee if lxrandr gives yu better rez16:36
TJ-Kartagis: most likely, the TV isn't providing a valid EDID so a default resolution is chosen16:38

daftykins!chroot | Zooru here's the info17:36
ubottuZooru here's the info: A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot17:36
skinuxWhy is Flash not viable for that??17:36

BPSTravisAnother question, other than google, is there a wayi can search for a package name to install? I want o install fixparts but the package name isnt just "fixparts" or i'm missing a repository or something. How can I back track to what I need to install to get the package?17:47
irreverantso is there a simple scripti can just run to move to gnome17:47
bubbafatIf I want to have an external drive (USB) always mount to the same device (/dev/sdb) - is this something I setup in fstab or with udev?  I know the device UUID and where I want it to mount.  It just keeps getting new device name during power cycles.17:47
PiciBPSTravis: apt-cache search fixparts, or install the apt-file package and then you can search inside of packages that you have not yet installed (apt-file search filename)17:47

That way, none of the configurations will have to be changed, (because the Linux partitions will be numbered same as before, the blkid numbers will be the same).

TJ-Zooklubba: Trial and error, based on what the device reports initially. Sometimes there's lots of clues in the windows driver .inf file that is stored in the virtual CD-ROM that is presented when the device is plugged in. To keep that, usb_modeswitch needs disabling, or an over-ride adding in /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/ for the device19:26

kaieI want to enable the Emulate3Buttons options (for a mouse that doesn't have a middle button). I know that usually one would edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to edit the option. But I don't have that file. Yes, I already heard that it can be automatically generated, by running "X -configure". But that doesn't work equivalently. For example, I'm using Cinnamon, and with an explicit xorg.conf I get software rendering.21:42

black0uthitsujiTMO: hey, I figured out the error23:18
hitsujiTMOblack0ut: what was it?23:18
black0uthitsujiTMO: the tutorial is right, there seems to be some stuff going on with PHP, some incompatibility, but I don't understand what exactly23:18
black0utso I need to change in libraries/joomla/filter/input.php23:19
funkyheya23:19
black0ut$source = preg_replace(‘/&#(\d+);/me’, “utf8_encode(chr(\\1))”, $source); // decimal notation23:19
black0ut$source = preg_replace(‘/&#x([a-f0-9]+);/mei’, “utf8_encode(chr(0x\\1))”, $source); // hex notation23:19
black0utto23:19
black0ut$source = preg_replace_callback(‘/&#x(\d+);/mi’, function($m){return utf8_encode(chr(’0x’.$m[1]));}, $source); // decimal notation23:19
black0ut$source = preg_replace_callback(‘/&#x([a-f0-9]+);/mi’, function($m){return utf8_encode(chr(’0x’.$m[1]));}, $source); // hex notation23:19
black0utthe thing is that I copy&pasted the text from the tutorial23:19
hitsujiTMOblack0ut: hmm, always a good sign when you have to modify the source of an app :P23:19
black0utand in the tutorial they used ` and ´ insted of ' and ' :D23:19
black0uti replaced it23:19
black0utand it worked23:19
hitsujiTMOblack0ut: ahh, ok, so just wrong quotes when you changed it23:20

dgarstangWhat's the best way to cache packages? I looked at apt-cache but it seems like a bad port from Debian that isn't quite complete.23:29
funkyremote yes, Operating System: Ubuntu 13.10, 64 Bit, enviroment suitable for VM workstation23:29
hitsujiTMOdgarstang: rsync /var/cache/apt/archive ?23:30
funkyas I plan to install VM workstation on Ubuntu and also enjoy desktop enviroment :)23:30
hitsujiTMOfunch: you want a non 3d accelerated one, so maybe try installing xfce4 (or xubuntu-desktop )23:31
hitsujiTMOfunky: ^23:31
dgarstanghitsujiTMO: That's one option, but it means I have to copy the entire thing and write scripts to keep it synced23:31
TJ-dgarstang: apt-cache-ng23:31

hitsujiTMOfunky: makes more sense to install a propper hypervisor on a remote server.   but ... xfce4 / xubuntu-desktop will do what you need. you will need to configure it for vnc or whatever remote desktop software you are using23:34
