[00:38] Ubuntu1: start by explaining exactly what you are doing, what you are expecting to happen and what actually happens [00:38] my thoughts exactly [00:40] I dont need a full system backup, I dont have enough storage space so I gathering selective files, like pictures and documents, and some themes, brushes, and fonts........backup will not let me put pdf files in the list, I need these pdf files as they are manuals [00:41] Ubuntu1: what exactly are using to backup? [00:42] Ubuntu1, I see what your saying. Could you just put all of your pd'f files together in a folder and use gzip to compress them [00:42] the only thing I have is cd/dvd [00:42] Ubuntu1, cloud storage or google storage would be a work around for you.

[02:19] yes no one can help you if they dont know whats wrong [02:19] tmager: I don't know what loopback is or if it would be enabled [02:19] z1haze1: if you want to find who they were, look here: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2014/02/ But just clearly state your problem on one line ans someone will help if they can [02:19] i already wrote wat was wrong [02:19] z1haze1> well basically what i did, i goofed up chowning a directory [02:19] only a smidgen [02:19] intsead of running ./ i typed / [02:19] z1haze1: so you did chown {something somthing} / [02:19] and i overwrote the root directory for a lot of stuff [02:19] and now of course im having a lot of issues, cant sudo, cant use screen [02:19] z1haze1: so what exactly did you do [02:19] yea [02:20] chown minecraft:mcserver / [02:20] instead of ./ [02:20] canthearyou: alsamixer, all the way to the right under playback, there may be something called "loopback" and either enabled or disabled above it [02:20] with no other flags [02:20] so my root file permissions are all jacked up [02:20] no it was -R [02:20] but icancelled it [02:20] but it still got a lot [02:20] how soon [02:20] Does anyone know how to fix the broken pipes error? [02:20] 5 seconds [02:20] maybe [02:20] z1haze1: stop with the commentary please. [02:21] Mystic it could be more than that [02:21] what? [02:21] somsip what are you talking about? [02:21] tmager: disabled [02:21] My computer is now giving me a broken pipes error after I tried to install the dependancies for the Intel Graphics Driver [02:21] z1haze1: stop saying one thing on one line. Give me chance to help you and I will. Be annoying and I go back to doing something else [02:22] ok, mybad she_dyed asked what i wrote and i answered [02:22] no, she was giving more info [02:22] ok [02:24] z1haze1: looking around, the standard suggestion is to reinstall, eg: http://is.gd/ZuuXTh http://is.gd/jGJMx4 http://is.gd/bq0fED [02:24] yea except [02:25] z1haze1: 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 recommended [02:25] i dont have the virtual keyboard access or w/e and the guy is just blowing me off about it [02:26] therse a lot of information that i cannot phsyically download and reupload, its too much so how can i back it up? [02:28] z1haze1: 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] no he just doesnt care [02:28] he gave me the server to use, he has a lot of them [02:29] and 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 that [02:29] i only have root via ssh [02:29] burn a CD/DVD with the files you cba to put online, etc z1haze1 [02:29] z1haze1: 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.

[02:31] z1haze1: use the irc logs if you want to find them. See my first response to you [02:31] if you dont care to do that, thats fine, but thats my only option [02:32] yea i opened it up, therse just tons and tons of things inside yesterdays fodler, i dont kno wwhat to check into [02:32] Does anyone know how to get a second monitor working with nvidia-prime? [02:32] and thats cool, u dont wanna help me. if i knew how to look for the helper i would.. but ive not used irc logs before and the structure is massive and confusing [02:32] z1haze1: you find the month, and the date, and the #ubuntu channel. Then you search using your browser for your name and look for responses === kris is now known as guthead [02:33] theres tons of options [02:33] SpartanS63: you got the nvivia installer?

It's an Nvidia Optimus laptop and I do understand it's not the best supported yet, but I heard with the nvidia-prime package you could get power management and multi monitor support. [02:39] Is anyone here fairly familiar with scripting and willing to check a simple script for me? [02:39] have you ever worked with a different linux [02:40] like a liveCD, [02:40] I've used a liveCD before, but I never got any life out of an attached monitor. [02:41] attached with what,vga cable or DVI or HDMI [02:41] DaemeonZane: what language? you should visit an appropriate channel, such as #bash or #python [02:42] Is anyone able to help me?

[02:49] MysticalBurrito_: it might not be enough for your system to load, as unlikely as that seems to me [02:49] MysticalBurrito_: other than that, I'm out of ideas, this isn't my expertise [02:49] I just installed this yesterday [02:49] and it was working fine untill I installed dependancies for the Intel driver [02:49] in think he said he aborted an install for the graphics [02:50] MysticalBurrito_: when it is booting up, do you get the purple ubuntu loading screen? [02:51] Yes [02:51] MysticalBurrito_: then the pipe error theen nothing right? [02:51] MysticalBurrito_: you can hit Esc during that time to see all the actually init messages as your system start - it might give you a clue if something halts your system from booting up [02:52] the screen will show "Could not write bytes: broken pipe" [02:52] MysticalBurrito_: do you happen to know how big the partition you installed to was? and also how much ram your laptop has? [02:52] I am also running on 4GB ram and 500GB hard drive [02:53] MysticalBurrito_: then that is likely not the issue I'm expecting [02:53] yeah after installing my intel dependancies my graphics went all weird so I had to force a restart [02:53] and since thne my computer is doing this [02:53] yes, he has plenty of either one [02:55] i am leaning towards finishing up those dependencies from cli [02:56] all my google results are leaning towards an issue with the login manager, but I shouldn't think that should stop MysticalBurrito_ from being able to use ctrl+alt+f1 to get a runlevel login === racer|stream is now known as racer0940 [02:56] right, i +1 ^ [02:56] I cannot do runlevel login [02:56] It's not doing anything [02:57] ctl-alt-f2?

I also can't install libapache2-mod-php5, because "subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1". xubuntu 13.10. Anyone have ideas? [02:57] MysticalBurrito_: did you install ubuntu with grub? I'll assume so: at boot, when it asks you what to boot into, select Ubuntu recovery [02:58] no I did not install with grub [02:58] also my laptop is missing it's onboard display so I am forced to use an external monitor [02:58] MysticalBurrito_: 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 likely [02:59] install* [02:59] it's very difficult to get it to boot to CD [03:00] I've been trying all day to get it to work [03:00] why, have you a docking station for your laptop [03:00] MysticalBurrito_: well if you can't select a runlevel and you can't select a recovery mode from boot, you are running out of options, frankly [03:00] I know [03:00] MysticalBurrito_: would a usb be better? [03:02] I just found if I press ctrl alt del my computer will restart [03:02] MysticalBurrito_: 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 <_< [03:03] no, a normal HDD [03:04] you never know [03:05] MysticalBurrito_: erm, I think you might be mistakening sshd with SSD. sshd is the daemon for hosting ssh connections [03:06] MysticalBurrito_: 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" [03:07] MysticalBurrito: definitely not intended usage, but I'm just scrapping ideas off the bottom of the barrel since you mentioned booting to livecd was difficult === shiestie is now known as Guest13552 === Guest13552 is now known as Defused [03:11] I screwed up my apache2 install and it won't run php scripts anymore, just show the text.

Ubuntu 13.10. Try to install prop drivers with apt-get but when I reboot I get a flashing red green blue black and white screen [03:16] I use a GTX 780 [03:17] syzo, will apt install anything at all? [03:18] I believe [03:18] syzo: you ran apt-get -f install? if so then try 'sudo dpkg --configure libapache2-mod-php5' and see if dpkg can fix it [03:18] do you have a random thing I can try installing? [03:18] guthead: same error [03:18] and yeah I ran the -f install [03:18] sure "git" [03:18] have it already lol [03:18] lol [03:19] dpkg gaveyou the "...returned error exit status 1" too? [03:19] ah, installing sl worked [03:19] check the /var/lib/dpkg/info/ dir for any scripts [03:19] yeah guthead :( [03:20] syzo: any files starting with libapache2?

"libapache2-mod-php5 is already the newest version.", no php apache module [03:25] to enable [03:28] syzo: try "sudo apt-get purge libapache2-mod-php5" [03:29] syzo: then give it another shot [03:29] can someone tell me how to make my computer run faster [03:29] zsw_: give it legs [03:29] what [03:29] zsw_: I kid [03:29] ok good [03:30] offthenon and guthead: yeah I noticed the "dpkg --audit" command that I didn't know about in that one post, ran it, and it told me to reinstall libapache2-mod-php5, so I uninstalled it, purged it, and reinstalled it, and now it works :) Thansk a bunch!! [03:30] zsw_: in all seriousness, cut back on services and background process (like those little panel applets and things) and also don't run as much software at the same time [03:30] but seriously [03:30] syzo: Great === racer0940 is now known as racer|away [03:31] syzo: reinstalling will often fix packages that faield to install properly but have managed to trick apt-get into thinking it is installed properly [03:31] i know that but its always ruuning slow now and i want to know some commands to make ubuntu run faster [03:31] failed - ANYWAYS glad to hear you eventually fixed it :) [03:31] zsw_: that's not a thing, sorry [03:31] guthead: but I uninstalled it and reinstalled it like 10 times haha. don't know why it worked this time. but anyway, thanks! peace :) [03:32] but theres a program i can download i just dont know name [03:32] zsw_: you could look into cpulimit and ulimit and some not so user-friendly things like that to help limit the amount of resources you allow to specific processes [03:32] zsw_: it won't make your computer faster, just let you manually control who gets to eat all the pie [03:33] and i tryed assessing bios and i dont know password for stuff [03:33] zsw_: things like cleaning up cache and making space can help a lot too [03:33] what about bios [03:33] zsw_: also avoid using swap pagefiles as that can slow down your performance by relying on hdd read/write to act for memory buffering [03:34] oh right [03:34] bios wont make your computer faster unless you are planning on overclocking and your bios supports it and you know what youa re doing [03:34] i just want to axsess bios for know reason === aaa_ is now known as Guest32993 [03:35] i wouldnt know how to reset your bios password, sorry - plus that is out of scope for this channel [03:37] what channal would be in scope for stuff like that [03:37] zsw_, what bios?

So can't we add it as a ppa ? === Guest13352 is now known as varunendra [03:45] pipi: I should probably clarify. If your goal is only to get it up and running then building it is the most straight forward solution.

[04:01] offthenon: how odd... it wants to remove kubuntu-desktop along with ksnapshot... that seems pretty drastic [04:02] apb1963: Nope. [04:02] apb1963: Look at 'apt-cache show kubuntu-desktop'. [04:06] LoL. I can't even run .configure . What a misreable life :-( [04:06] hi guys, I've been having trouble with PlayOnLinux and had several error reports from xorg... any idea? here's some info: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6917976/ [04:06] jpds: OK, so there is tons of stuff... what is it that you're telling me? kubuntu-desktop is not dependent on ksnapshot.... [04:07] I had a run in with HDD partitions this weekend. I thought that having data stored on the second and third partitions on my HDD would be safe when I overwrote a non-booting 12.04 install with a 13.10 instance. It merged all three partitions and dumped all my data. I'd still like to have multiple partitions, but I don't want to deal with this again if I update to 14.04 in a few months. Is there a way I should be creating the pa [04:07] pipi: have you tried ./configure ? === chrisgward is now known as chrisward [04:08] apb1963: ya, checked 4 lines and then stopped here. "checking for m4 that supports -I option... configure: error: could not find m4 that supports -I option" [04:09] pipi: apt-get install m4 ??? [04:09] pipi:it does appear to be a package [04:10] lol, apb1963 there was a file called m4 inside the package. So I thought ./configure was not able to communicate with it [04:12] pipi: it seems odd that whatever packagr e you're installing would include an incompatible m4 [04:12] apb1963: Read the last line of the description. [04:12] ugh... what a horrid irc client [04:12] yes it's looking for an m4 that supports a particular option [04:13] yup, now stopped at "configure: error: Package requirements (xcb >= 1.4) were not met:" OK, since its my 1st time compiling advanced package. Is there a trick to automate this instead of searching for the missing package online, Downloading it. Then compiling it from source ? [04:13] jpds: wait... which description? pipi's description? Or the kubuntu-desktop description? lost now. [04:14] pipi: just a guess but it sounds like whatever you're installing wasn't packaged properly..... dunno. I'd just apt-get install m4 and see what happens from there. [04:16] apb1963: i guess if all you are doing is a reinstall, you could try to force it to be removed. but it might "make bad things happen" [04:17] offthenon: yeah I don't want to uniinstall the desktop [04:17] apb1963: Well, I am installing bspwm. Here are the dependences. # Dependencies [04:17] - libxcb [04:17] - xcb-util [04:18] and lastly - xcb-util-wm. 3 of them are not in repo [04:18] Hi, does anyone know how to use AntiX? I know it's late to be asking. [04:18] There appears to be no one over on that channel. === _raul|away is now known as _raul [04:19] AnitX is not ubuntu [04:19] apb1963: you can use dpkg to remove it "sudo dpkg -r --force all " also the -P will purge instead of remove. but you have to promise not to hunt me down when this breaks your system [04:20] pipi: no idea what that package is.... I'd suggest getting on their mailing list and asking for help there. If they don't have a place to ask for help... I'd Iouldn't install it. [04:20] offthenon: no promises [04:20] apb1963: Then you could just reinstall the package [04:20] apb1963: Ya, They have it packaged for Arch and gentoo. But not Ubuntu [04:21] offthenon: I can't afford to break my system any more than it's already broken [04:21] basically, its a tiling window manager... [04:22] pipi: I'd expect them to have instructions on how to do it... if they don't, and if you don't have the knowledge it itotall it yourself... I wouldn't do it. [04:22] I hate this irc client... worst one yhet [04:22] apb1963: which irc client are you using ? [04:22] I have ubuntu running on a netbook [04:22] apb1963: then isntall another one [04:22] how do I change resolution? [04:23] ianorlin: I've already tried two others [04:23] I tried ctrl-alt-+ [04:23] no don [04:23] does not work [04:23] ianorlin: I don't know of any more. [04:23] pipi: KVirc [04:23] apb1963: irssi? [04:23] qin: isn't that a non-gui client? [04:24] apb1963: is it a problem? [04:24] is there a way to specify a repo when trying to upgrade a package? I see the repo has a new version of a ruby package that i need, but it doesnt seem to find it when i specify the version manually with apt-get [04:24] qin: I think it's probably not a prefernence [04:25] for the record, I can in fact spell... it's this stupid irc client that keeps messing me up [04:25] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat apb1963 === Numpenschnut is now known as Wumbel === megabitdragon is now known as zz_megabitdragon [04:26] MACscr:maybe this will help? http://superuser.com/questions/124174/how-can-i-specify-the-repository-from-which-a-package-will-be-installed-emacs [04:27] ianorlin: yeah, I tried alll 3 kubuntu clients [04:28] offthenon: nope. As i mentioned, it doesnt seem to find it when i specify the specific version [04:29] Is there a command to make the bars/menus disappear on gnome? [04:29] sorry to repeat myself. Is there a way to create a partition so that the data is safe during a reinstall? (similar to the way you can reinstall windows on a C: without destroying other partitions or the data on them?) [04:29] mitchelwb: of course. works the same way [04:29] MACscr, I found out this weekend that it doesn't. [04:29] create a separate /home or whatever you want [04:29] mitchelwb: it does [04:30] I thought my data was safe, but when I installed 13.10 over 12.04 it merged and wiped all three of my partitions. [04:30] you just dont know what you are doing and you wiped the whole drive instead of just the appropriate partitions [04:30] mitchelwb: theres an option when installing called "format", if you format it, everything goes away. the easiest way to allow for reinstalls and things is to make a separate /home partition [04:30] mitchelwb: did you perhaps give it ending cylinders that were a bit too large? [04:30] ;' [04:30] ' [04:30] ;' [04:30] ;' [04:30] ;' [04:30] ;' [04:30] ;' [04:30] also, why didnt you just upgrade instead? [04:31] sorry [04:31] I didn't see anything during the reinstall process that led me to believe it was going to mess with my partitions. It offered to upgrade, set up a dual boot, or overwrite, but never said it was going to destroy my partitions. [04:31] Worm_in_a_Box: there is shell extention "Hide Top bar" installable via ff, and "tweaks" [04:32] I did the overwrite because the whole reason I was doing it was because my machine locked up and I had to do a hard reboot. It wouldn't boot. I saw no sense in upgrading an install that wasn't working. [04:32] lol [04:32] I have ubuntu running on a netbook, How do I change screen resolution? [04:32] Hmm, wont do. [04:32] ubuntu desktop that is [04:32] Everything but the background disappeared on gnome. [04:32] Only on this specific user. [04:33] Exactly will do. [04:33] Any idea of how I can fix it? [04:34] Wait, fix what? Do you want to hide your bar or recover it? [04:34] Recover it. [04:36] so realizing that I did the overwrite and not an upgrade, is there a way create partitions so that this doesn't happen again? (don't worry, I learned my lesson anyway, ALMOST everything I was concerned about was already backed up to the NAS, so it wasn't a huge loss... the one file that wasn't backed up took me days to recover though) [04:36] mitchelwb: well anytime you tell it to overwrite, it will [04:37] im in terminal and im trying to assess the command 'su' and i type my password correct and it says 'Authentication failure' as if i got the pass wrong. [04:37] what do i do [04:37] !root | zsw_ [04:37] zsw_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo === Jan11 is now known as ON1 [04:37] Ben64, yeah. And I can't get in to the philosophy of why it shouldn't without upsetting folks here (found that out this weekend as well) [04:37] Worm_in_a_Box: How it happened? http://askubuntu.com/questions/56313/how-do-i-reset-gnome-to-the-defaults [04:38] what is 'root password' [04:38] zsw_: sudo -i; own password & good luck. [04:38] im sorry, but overwrite means overwrite. not sure how thats confusing [04:38] zsw_: the password that "su" requires [04:38] zsw_: use sudo instead of su [04:38] how do i get my root password [04:38] zsw_: all you need to do is "sudo " you shouldn't need to be root ever [04:38] I 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? [04:39] but the artical im reading says su [04:39] zsw_: well then you might not want to be following that, it likely isn't for ubuntu. what are you trying to do? [04:40] Ben64, 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] merging partitions? wth are you talking about [04:41] I have to agree somewhat with mitchelwb here. Overwrite and wipe or two different things [04:41] *are [04:41] there is no such thing afaik as merging partitions [04:42] although if I were confronted with the option I would check the doc or ask OR make a backup before jumping in === wolrah_ is now known as wolrah [04:42] MACscr, I felt the same way. I had three partitions on the drive. OS was installed on one. I cleared data I wanted to save off the primary partitions and stored them on the other partitions. Then reinstalled the OS telling it to overwrite the old (nonbooting) OS. [04:42] Generally "merging partitions" is more commonly referred to as deleting partitions and creating them as a larger size... thereby "merging" them. [04:43] When it was finished, I had one partition and all my data was gone. (I've been scouring the free space with photorec for the last 48 hours to find the one file I wanted) [04:43] mitchelwb: What partitioner opyion have you used while installing? [04:43] *option [04:44] apb1963: there is no such thing though. what installer or software says such a thing? [04:44] qin , I don't remember ,it was a long time ago. I rarely use gnome, so I was ok with it. [04:44] Worm_in_a_Box: just reset the setting, as shown in the link [04:45] qin, I have a 1TB drive that was brand new. I installed Ubuntu on it brand new but only gave it 200G because I didn't know if I wanted to stay with it or spend the money on a win license., after about a year, I decided I was apparantly sticking with Ubuntu, so I used gParted to partition the remaining 800G as two partitions. [04:45] I will do it. Thanks. [04:45] Partition magic used to be able to merge NTFS [04:45] I"m not sure what options I used though. [04:45] MACscr: Merging? None that I know of. Dhowever fdisk will do it if you don't know what you're doing :) [04:45] and preserver the data at the same time [04:46] offthenon: i dont think so [04:48] MACscr: I'm sure. Maybe not partition magic. I've done it with windows partitions [04:48] I don't really *NEED* to have the partitions, I can and do use my NAS to store most things... but it's very handy for the way I work, and honestly, had some data that wasn't worth backing up, but wasn't stuff I really wanted to lose. That's why I'd like to figure out how to do it correctly now. [04:48] anyone know the location of that xscreensaver test pattern image with the burning screen in the middle? [04:48] MACscr: I wish I could remember the name... [04:48] MACscr: If you turn small partition into one larger, regardless how cubersome process is, thats merge... [04:49] MACscr: http://www.partitionwizard.com/help/merge-partition.html [04:49] i miss partition magic === varunendra is now known as Guest26895 [04:49] Still not helpful to mitchelwb though [04:49] qin: if you delete a partition in the process, its not a merge [04:50] offthenon as part of the process I've gone through this weekend, I now have a bootable partitionwizard disc. [04:50] MACscr: I knida agree [04:50] i recommend Redo! or systemrescuecd for that [04:50] Hey, 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. [04:51] MACscr: 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 loss [04:51] MACscr 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] so 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 sure === NaStYdoG is now known as Guest60299 [04:51] Either way, I lost all the data that was on the two secondary partitions [04:51] mitchelwb: you should pay more attention to the installer, it doesn't do anything without notifying you first [04:52] 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] mitchelwb: should not have happened.... overwrite seems drastic to me... unless it fully explained what it was going to do. [04:52] mitchelwb: wait... what were we trying to help with here? a /home partition [04:52] offthenon: might want to read that entire article. That merges D and E and puts the data on C [04:52] ain't nothing good on chat tonight. ubuntu entertain me plz [04:52] Ben64, 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] mitchelwb: and where the lost data supposed to be? If you overwrited partition tables, use testdisk to see what you acctually can recover. [04:53] MACscr: that is clearly a typo [04:53] i dont think so [04:53] mitchelwb: instead of reinstalling use live usb, so you will keep some chances of recovery missing files [04:53] qin, that's what I've been using. testdisk comes with a utility called photorec that allows you to search and recover files. [04:54] qin, I've not done it via usb, is there a difference between usb and cd? === joel is now known as Guest7322 [04:55] See, it happened again :( [04:55] MACscr: it says drive F will be stored to c [04:55] MACscr: the example is merging E and F [04:55] mitchelwb: yes, you can same some results on usb... has testdisk seen old partition table, before you overwrited them [04:56] testdisk 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!) [04:57] offthenon: MACscr is purytan, and merging do not equal copynig deleting and resising and moving. [04:58] would 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. === zz_megabitdragon is now known as megabitdragon [04:58] you dont need to do a clean install. boot a live CD and use gparted [04:59] whats the best windows app for accessing files on ubuntu partition? === megabitdragon is now known as zz_megabitdragon [04:59] there isnt one really [04:59] fibz_ my machine doesn't boot now. I jacked around so much with the hard drive trying to recover my file that it doesn't boot now. [04:59] seriously why does ubuntu suck so much ass? [04:59] i cant even get this shit to install [04:59] lol, its pretty damn easy to install [05:00] i just tried installing lubuntu 14.04 [05:00] Gnar: if you just want to rant, leave. if you want support, lose the foul language and ask an actual support question [05:00] and its not even recognizing it as a bootable drive [05:00] 14.04 isnt even out [05:00] 14.04 isnt even out yet, you expect a perfect polished experience? [05:00] How can you not install ubuntu. [05:00] 14.04 support is in #ubuntu+1 until release date [05:00] no wonder this garbage is free [05:00] mitchelwb: in that case scalpel or foremost, there is also carver-recovery [05:01] eh, put the troll on ignore [05:01] qin, I tried scalpel but didn't get very far with it. photorec found my file for me though. So now I just need to get my machine back to normal again. I'm done with the file recovery business! :P [05:02] hmm, i really wish i could figure out how to upgrade my ruby-sinatra package to a newer edition. Drives me nuts that this other repo has it but i cant seem to upgrade to it. apt-cache doesnt even see it [05:07] get the best irc shell http://www.mediafire.com/download/dak4uvbug7yhm6y/kittys.exe [05:07] :D [05:07] i use it [05:07] it's awesome [05:07] Would that work in my case? [05:07] an .exe? right [05:07] I need to figure out why I cannot connect to any server using ports 6667 to 6669 [05:07] yeah [05:08] At least not using xchat... I checked my computer (using windows) and it worked fine with mirc [05:08] I could connect here because it's 8001 [05:08] Tachyoniz: don't post that kind of stuff here [05:10] !danger [05:10] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND! That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [05:10] that's a virus posted above, do not download [05:10] unless you're running ubuntu :) [05:10] but yeah, pretty obvious it was a virus [05:10] I won't download it anyway, I want a client, not some shady file [05:11] DenSaakalte: you may want to try the xchat support for your issue [05:11] They only have one email apparently [05:12] what about #xchat [05:12] * Cannot join #xchat (You are banned). [05:12] That's... weird? [05:12] I've never been there [05:12] you probably need to register [05:12] -NickServ- This nickname is registered. Please choose a different nickname, or identify via /msg NickServ identify . [05:12] -NickServ- You are now identified for DenSaakalte. [05:12] yes, on freenode [05:13] Are you using xchat ? [05:13] Yes [05:13] Are you root? [05:14] anyone know the location of that xscreensaver test pattern image with the burning screen in the middle? [05:15] I am not root right now [05:15] I'll start it using root [05:15] Hold on [05:15] no [05:16] "Running IRC as root is stupid! You should [05:16] create a User Account and use that to login." [05:16] Well geez [05:16] i'm unable to log in into desktop. after rebooting a stuck desktop i get to the log in screen on restart but with only one desktop instead of two, and i'm unable to log in (i'm thrown back into log in screen). how can i disable in a tty the dual display mode? i tried an xrander command but it doesn't work and i'm unable to stop lightdm from running. [05:16] yeah... some channels ban root, thats why he asked === Guest26895 is now known as varunendra [05:17] Oh fuck [05:18] I am getting to the bottom of this [05:18] watch the language here [05:18] !language | DenSaakalte [05:18] DenSaakalte: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [05:18] Sorry, sorry... [05:19] I 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 problems [05:19] 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 #freenode [05:20] you register it with nickserv [05:20] yup something is wrong. simple fix is to sudo apt-get purge xchat && sudo apt-get install xchat [05:20] 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 nicks [05:20] Good idea... Hopefully my settings will remain there, right? [05:20] no they will not. thats what purge does, [05:21] what was the idea.. [05:21] I'll save them somewhere safe [05:21] i was just saying to do so, you register your nick with nickserv [05:21] If that works then something is off with the config [05:21] I'll be back in a bit [05:21] * Flat4ForLife walks away [05:21] easier option, quit xchat. open terminal. type "mv .xchat2 .xchat2_backup" and open xchat again [05:21] Okay [05:21] thats a question for #freenode [05:21] Alright, that's better, thank you Ben64 [05:22] be right back [05:22] i know this isnt the grub channel, but is anyone in here good with grub? [05:22] just registering your nick on freenode does not stop others from using it. its just a way of getting it back once you log on and some one else is using it. if you dont want others using your nick, thats an option you must specify with nickserv [05:23] really? ok try changing to my nick === Flat4ForLife is now known as tempnick === tempnick is now known as temperpeor [05:23] you are logged in. i cant. but once you go offline, i can [05:23] ask in #freenode they will confirm [05:24] i'm unable to log in into desktop. after rebooting a stuck desktop i get to the log in screen on restart but with only one desktop instead of two, and i'm unable to log in (i'm thrown back into log in screen). how can i disable in a tty the dual display mode? i tried an xrander command but it doesn't work and i'm unable to stop lightdm from running. [05:24] ok try it now [05:24] have you already identified? [05:25] nope, just disconnected and joined as this nick [05:25] k === fibz_ is now known as Flat4ForLife [05:25] safri8: sudo service lightdm stop; will put X down. [05:25] hi [05:25] now give it a second [05:25] i am me [05:25] NOT! [05:26] ... i thought that was the whole point in registering with nickserv [05:26] wtf [05:26] if you change back, you will get your nick back. if you dont want me doing this, you must tell nickserv [05:26] qin: it worked. now how do i disable the 2nd display? [05:26] ask in #freenode [05:26] good to know, i thought it was the other way around === Flat4ForLife is now known as `Fibz` [05:27] safri8: http://superuser.com/questions/618127/disable-unplugged-displays-xrandr [05:28] safri8: useful?

[11:00] Hi. I want to see process usage of this memory http://techsdiary.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/ComputerRAM-main_Full.jpg (dont know how to say correctly) and SWAP. And that memory + SWAP. So from "man top" looks like its "RES" and "SWAP". I see RES, but there is no SWAP and google says never will be. So what software i can use for that? [11:02] htop? [11:02] aeon-ltd, same as top. No "SWAP" [11:03] aeon-ltd, won't fix since 2006 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=365038 [11:03] Debian bug 365038 in htop "htop: Add swap column for swap usage in MB, like top" [Wishlist,Open] [11:04] How you live without knowing how much memory from that picture used and SWAP? =\ [11:05] tiblock: are you saying that you don't see the amount of swap memory used in top/htop?

I am currently trying to install ubuntu on qemu with a virtual braille line. and it always hangs up when it detects hardware. [11:12] Humbedooh, cant image that this will be so hard. Thank you. [11:12] it seems to be confused by the virtual usb braille [11:13] Humbedooh, but "RES" is definitely this memory? http://techsdiary.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/ComputerRAM-main_Full.jpg [11:14] Humbedooh, or maybe not? [11:14] tiblock: let me quote; RES stands for the resident size, which is an accurate representation of how much actual physical memory a process is consuming. [11:15] guys now i m using ubuntu live 12.04 on my exper netbook, i cant connect wireless and i take that "wireless is disabled by hardware switch" but f12 button is not working, how can i enable wireless ? [11:15] Humbedooh, i not sure what "physical" memory is. In linux everything so hard, "physical" can be videocard memory, and SSD memory, and CPU memory. Any memory can be called "physical" [11:16] tiblock: it's your RAM :) [11:16] Humbedooh, in windows i call RAM that planks from picture. So is it memory from picture in linux?

[11:20] hello, is there a log somewhere of all the notifications that appeared on screen in the past? [11:21] i mean the little messages that show up to notify on various things (like connection established, updates, torrent completed, ....) [11:22] no [11:22] airtonix: is that "no" for me? [11:23] Rula7: yes, but I think there should be. however i do believe it should be as simple as creating a python dbus service that listens for libNotify events and storing them to disk [11:24] so there isn't one by default? i mean if i want to look up past notifications now? is there a way to do it? [11:25] i'm not in the habit of repeating my self [11:27] airtonix: sorry i am a beginner and dont understand well what you wrote. does it mean i can only set it up for the future to be done or that i can get it to work to see PAST notifications? === namikaze_ is now known as rooney [11:30] Rula7 is this relevant? it seems Canonical devs are working on it https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD [11:33] MonkeyDust: thank you.... all i want to do is to see PAST notifications..... thought it would be easy.... but seems very complicated instead.... [11:33] MonkeyDust: airtonix wrote>> yes, but I think there should be. however i do believe it should be as simple as creating a python dbus service that listens for libNotify events and storing them to disk [11:33] Rula7: not sure what it means though....

[11:48] ask in more detailed way [11:48] I am trying to configure emerald and compiz, but any setting I apply on compiz dont seem to take effect [11:48] !emerald [11:48] emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. [11:48] hello, i would like to see all PAST notifications (not interested in getting future notifications logged).... does anybody know how to do it and is capable of getting a beginner to do it as well? :) [11:49] Emerald? Now that's a name I've not heard for a long, long time... [11:49] merci otak [11:49] yep, emerald ist gone some time [11:49] pourrais-je te prendre en pv otak ? [11:49] so its dead? [11:49] hey guys.. is there a way to provide a link to a deb package so the user will install it and get the possible dependencies from his current sources.list repositories?

[11:51] Rula7: Yep [11:51] automatically = by default [11:51] btw. I hade Unity and most of you I think also... Gnome 3 is also a crap... on the other way Gnome 2 is unsupported. How to get Gnome 2 look without Mate Deskop? [11:51] *hate [11:51] Rula7: It's possible that the application which triggered the notification also has its own log-file, which might contain something [11:51] !pm > ob1wanken00by [11:51] ob1wanken00by, please see my private message [11:51] !notunity | slick [11:51] slick: 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] what about individual programs? for example transmission? [11:51] ahh [11:52] !compiz | ob1wanken00by [11:52] ob1wanken00by: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz [11:52] where would i look for transmission's log file? [11:52] Rula7: 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 file [11:52] yeah... but they still don't look like minimalistic and clean debian 6.0.6 :-) [11:52] Rula7: I doubt Transmission has its own log file by default. What are you trying to achieve btw, there might be a more elegant solution [11:53] slick: please rant to the gnome boys about that. that is in no way ubuntus fault [11:53] I don't judge anybody... no worries [11:54] slick: 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 programs [11:54] billy zane! the phantom is the best! [11:55] @Rory, yep [11:55] 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] Rory: i had recorded a text list of all "worthy" downloads (audio, video,...) from transmission which i dont have anymore..... i dont have the downloads either because of lack of disk space..... i would like to recover the lost info.... this is my problem :) [11:56] slick: you could try xubuntu or lubuntu if you want a look alike desktop [11:56] I'm using Xubuntu right now. Nevermind. Thank you mates. [11:59] Rory: i had the info in two files within a folder..... i cut and paste the folder in my usb key..... i got an invalid name error..... and after i was left just with an empty folder.... files were lost... not in trash.... nowhere....

[12:04] Rula7: Check the files aren't marked as hidden (ie they start with a dot) === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [12:06] Rory: no files are not hidden. thinking about it i should have tried pasting it again on the desktop. you are right. how stuppid of me not to have thought of that. it happened yesterday. now i cannot do it anymore. :( [12:07] Bom dia [12:07] Rory: any other idea? is it normal that for an invalid name error files would just disappear like that? [12:07] strange.... [12:09] Rory: thanks.. is there something with a graphic interface? [12:10] #deducteam [12:11] luist apt-get -f instyall is simpler, faster and more efficient than any GUI could be [12:12] cekk [12:13] luist: for it to work like that, you need a personal package archive which the user can add to their sources list with the software gui and receive the relevant warnings [12:17] Rory: havent figured it out yet but thanks anyways for your help.... :) === jack is now known as Guest58996 [12:18] benis === mudo_ is now known as mudo [12:32] Hi ... 13.10 with all updates here .. a few mins ago my system "spontaneouly" rebooted, maybe for the second time in two days ... how can I see why it happened? === berend is now known as Guest89860 [12:39] CiSense: maybe /var/log/syslog will have something useful?

I Google searched for "skype cli client linux" and it was the first result; I can't vouch for how good it is. You'll need the Skype programming still to be running, as the daemon itsself is proprietry; clients only communicate with it [13:23] Rory: it seems that its a gui client [13:24] d2_: No it doesn't, it looks like a Python script http://www.dlee.org/skype/clisk/man.php#usage [13:24] Rory: thank you, will take a look in to that === racer|away is now known as racer0940 [13:25] d2_: I actually gave up trying to get Skype daemon running on a headless server.

No way I'm going to do-release-upgrade if it falls over like this [13:48] do-release-upgrade does not use tab complete [13:49] I'm not talking about using that for the command. I'm talking about it kills the ssh terminal regularly. [13:49] Hence unwilling to upgrade over ssh as it seems very fragile. Its a headless server [13:50] Hix: use screen or tmux [13:50] in my experience it's never a painless experience with do-release-upgrade. [13:50] Hix: also backup first [13:50] Hix: 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 general [13:51] screen 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 dead [13:56] ikonia 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? [14:06] the json spirit library in the repos appears to be broken [14:06] it includes a file that doesn't exist [14:06] it does exist in the original source though so I'm thinking it is missing a file [14:08] 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. [14:09] I can help pg__ [14:09] You need to install a linux distro which isnt shit, like debian [14:10] or gentoo [14:12] 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] pg__: never mind the troll [14:13] ah ok its a troll, so forget my answer :) [14:14] pg__: is xorg detecting the displayport, does it show up in: xrandr [14:14] no xrandr does not detect the displayport. [14:15] pg__: is there any info on it in your xorg log: please pastebin the content of: /var/log/Xorg.0.log [14:15] 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 60Hz [14:17] 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] pg__: HDMI probably won't go beyond 60Hz, since it's used for video [14:18] pg__: refresh rates are irrelevant for flat panel displays anyway [14:20] gordonjcp: you're not familiar with 3D LCDs then i take it?

If they givethe functionality you need then 'outdated' is mooted entirely [14:55] true [14:55] i need one that will work all the way [14:55] jon__: try looking at functionality rather than the last update done [14:56] more date'd one [14:56] jon__: if a product does what you need then use it, even if it hasnt been updated in 12 months... [14:56] you usually have to buy them a drink first =) [14:56] jon__: so 'outdated' isnt actually a factor, but you seem hung up on it for some reason [14:57] jon__ what should the program be able to do? [14:57] is it because of the format, mp4 or what [14:57] i have to reinstall open shot to miny time and also the ppa's seem to be outdated [14:58] jon__: but does the version in the PPAs help you to fully achieve your goals? [14:58] jon__ define "outdated" [14:58] i have doen all the update for the programe [14:58] jon__: but does the version in the PPAs help you to fully achieve your goals? [14:58] jon__ but where does it go wrong and makes you reinstaal it? [14:58] the ppa's no [14:59] jon__ what do you need, that's not in the programs? [14:59] jon__: then you need a different application, or you could even email the PPA maintainer to see if there is scope for updating (assuming the newer version of the same app has what you need) [14:59] jon__: am I right in assuming this is the case? [15:02] version of the program works ok .it is the ppa's that really seem to not work right when i downlound the program [15:02] update it and so on [15:02] jon__: have you reported the bug(s) to the PPA maintainer? [15:02] jon__ then don't use the ppa's [15:03] seeems you need the ppa's [15:03] to make all of it work [15:03] !ppa | jon__ (so, end of discussion really) [15:03] jon__ (so, end of discussion really): A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

[15:11] hi all, someone tell me is there any class in gtk to render MathML ? or any other widget to render math equations ? [15:11] TJ-: haha cool :) [15:11] how can I make empathy remember the authentication I've done for my google accounts? every time I restart I have to reconfigure them because they're asking for authentication [15:11] i am on peppermint liux ok [15:12] jon__: peppermint is not supported here [15:12] !mint | jon__ [15:12] jon__: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu.

Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [15:12] jon__: NONE of the ubuntu based distributions are supported here [15:12] jon__: Ubuntu is based on Debian linux, but we don't go to #debian for help [15:12] not true [15:12] jon__ nothing of what you use, is supported here, you're in the wrong channel [15:12] why dont u google it [15:12] hello, [15:12] i have [15:12] jon__: similarly, ubuntu is based on debian, but if you ask for ubuntu support in #debian they will pointh you here [15:13] how set up route to 2 different ip? [15:13] jon__: peppermint has its own community and its own support [15:13] jon__: just like debian has [15:13] and so [15:13] jon__: and so you arent supported here [15:14] Peppermint Linux OS is a cloud-centric OS based on Lubuntu, a derivative of the Ubuntu Linux operating system that uses the LXDE desktop environment [15:15] jon__: its not supported here, its not an official canonical release, so is not supported here [15:15] jon__: it's time to accept we can't help you and go find someone who can. === centos is now known as Guest61657 [15:15] jon__: and ... isn't supported here. please enough of this, you'll only end up getting yourself banned from this channel [15:15] jon__ you're in the wrong channel [15:16] the4n where do i go [15:16] !alis [15:16] alis is a services bot that can help you find channels.

[16:36] see if lxrandr gives yu better rez [16:38] Kartagis: most likely, the TV isn't providing a valid EDID so a default resolution is chosen [16:38] Kartagis: or else, 1024x768 is the TV's resolution [16:38] that your lapppy can provide [16:39] minimum [16:39] exhibiton: you could try scan the vmnet with nmap: get the network address from ifconfig on the host, then: nmap -vsP 192.168.93.0/24 replacing the network addrss with the correct network [16:39] Kartagis: sounds like you're cloning the output rather than extending the desktop, so the resolution will depend on the lower res screen [16:39] TJ-: how do I check that?

[17:17] Kartagis: xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080_60.00 [17:17] hitsujiTMO: Kartagis But it isn't mirrored, look at the x,y offsets of the two outputs [17:18] Kartagis: will set the highest res on the TV but it will not be mirrored.

[17:27] Zooru: try fsck -a [17:27] skinux: the usb is formatted with with a non linux filesystem. [17:28] Hmm. [17:28] Why does that matter? I can move between Ubuntu and mounted Windows. [17:28] skinux: so linux permissions and ownerships are not preserved. not a huge issue if you don't need those permissions [17:29] Me again, does anyone here have experienc with tftp? I'm getting the error connection refused for tftp in the syslog and have no idea where to go from here with testing. Running on Ubuntu 10.04 Server. [17:29] skinux: simply put, you cannot execute files on a fat32/ntfs partition. and you cannot manage permissions. not a big issue of you are just moving files [17:29] tftp to achieve what? PXE boot? [17:29] Yes [17:29] daftykins: This is what I got http://paste.ubuntu.com/6921068/ [17:29] BPSTravis: permissions on your file store i guess [17:30] I've checked those, none changed :( [17:30] I'm just using USB as a backup medium. [17:30] Zooru: are you sure sda2 is a partition? can you pastebin "sudo fdisk -l" ? [17:30] Maybe I should use Dropbox, instead. [17:30] yeah flash drives != bacup [17:30] *backup [17:31] I have a 4G I use exclusively for storing backups. Never made a difference before. [17:31] daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6921079/ [17:32] Zooru: run it on sda1 [17:32] I guess I could use a backup directory under /opt, since /opt is actually a seperate partition. [17:32] skinux: backups between partitions are useless, only different disks are viable [17:32] At least, I think it is. /opt and /home should both be on same - seperate - partition. [17:32] daftykins: I have to umount it, first? [17:33] Zooru: yes [17:33] daftykins: done http://paste.ubuntu.com/6921100/ [17:33] Hmm. Well, I guess I'll have to burn all my backup data onto a DVD then. [17:34] Zooru: weird, that's with -a ? [17:34] Dropbox is viable? [17:35] ActionParsnip: that line worked well, but why am I limited to not being able to mirror and laptop sound? [17:35] daftykins: http://i.imgur.com/G9RrFVi.png [17:36] skinux: anywhere that is not the same physical disk is viable - the main rationale for backup is to mitigate the effects of disk failure [17:36] Zooru: i have to run now, consider looking into chroot'ing into your installation and running a "sudo apt-get -f install" to fix the current situation === brock is now known as anunakki [17:36] !chroot | Zooru here's the info [17:36] Zooru 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/BasicChroot [17:36] Why is Flash not viable for that?? [17:37] Hello World [17:37] skinux: somewhere outside the machine is better, be that physical (e.g., external HDD) or cloud (e.g., Dropbox, Ubuntu One, etc.) [17:37] flash drives are nowhere near as resilient as you may think [17:37] s [17:37] s [17:37] Hmm.

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] so is there a simple scripti can just run to move to gnome [17:47] If 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] BPSTravis: 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] BPSTravis;~ have a look in synaptic [17:48] the debian search page would be a good place, even if its inside a package [17:48] BPSTravis: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=fixparts&mode=exactfilename&suite=saucy&arch=any [17:48] after synaptic,ofc [17:48] apt-cache didn't return anything.

[17:50] Kartagis: if you run: alsamixer are all levels cranked and unmuted? [17:51] Kartagis: use cursor keys to move and change levels, use M to un/mute and ESC to quit [17:51] aptitude search returns nothing as well :/ [17:52] that or I don't deserve to use Linux [17:52] cloudy_nz, thanks - I'll give that a try and see. [17:52] BPSTravis: why are you using aptitude? [17:52] It was just suggested [17:52] BPSTravis;~ what did you search for I'll try it here [17:52] Also, how do I make sure Ubuntu is making use of SWAP? There is error "not yet ready or present" at boot, but I'm not sure if it's just delayed or not being used at all. [17:52] Mic Boost, S/PDIF, S/PDIF Default, S/PDIF 16 are off [17:52] fixparts [17:52] ActionParsnip: ^ [17:52] Maybe there just isn't a package built? [17:52] Kartagis: scroll past the last channel on the right, does it keep going? [17:53] Kartagis: use F6 and make sure it is on the correct output device? [17:53] it could be part of another .deb [17:53] skinux: do you really want to use swap? swapping is slow and will bring you a perfomance decrease [17:53] Kartagis: are you using hdmi for audio too? [17:53] ActionParsnip: also, Dock Mic Boost too [17:53] ActionParsnip: it would be super if I could [17:54] BPSTravis;~ righto http://www.rodsbooks.com/fixparts/ [17:54] BPSTravis;~ whay you trying to fix [17:54] Hi, I have a general question: I have a dual boot system on my pc, is there anyway I can remove the other o/s and convert it to an all linux pc without reinstalling ubuntu? === edong23_ is now known as edong23 [17:54] Without SWAP my system can freeze after a whle.

[17:56] +1 gparted [17:56] so.. anyone knows what might be going on_ [17:56] and a live cd [17:56] ?

[17:57] Yea, I was trying to find a apt-get install format [17:57] BPSTravis;~ there are deb files for 32 and 64 bit [17:57] I'm using the weblink now [17:57] Kartagis: try: echo "options snd-hda-intel model=3stack" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf > /dev/null [17:57] BPSTravis;~ not in ubuntu repos [17:57] Kartagis: reboot to test [17:57] Homely_Girl, i think so yes... look, if you want to extend your linux partition (while working from it), you can't.... you can only delete the windoz partition and make a new one for linux to use as support... you would then have 2 partitions in linux [17:57] one for system one for storage i guess... [17:58] Boo, time to go to work :-( [17:58] boo indeed [17:58] chemist^: Ah right....I'll find live disc now, thanks. [17:58] ActionParsnip: vendor: Intel [17:58] Kartagis: cool, try the command I gave and reboot [17:59] Ok, it was more of a personal thought to try and find a way to search for packages, now I do know how to do that as well so thank you for the help :) [17:59] Kartagis: you can also try: model=lenovo and: model=thinkpad you will need to run: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf to get write access [17:59] Homely_Girl, you could delete the win partition now with gparted, no need for live cd ... the live cd is for doing stuff on your linux partition (which is not mounted if you use a live cd) [18:00] such as extending it.. [18:00] So. MM or network manager doesnt want to detect my mobile broadband connection. It has the correct state when using lsusb.

[18:10] twin, http://askubuntu.com/questions/333850/how-to-install-whatsapp [18:10] in the upper right corner i think there should be a dropdown menu [18:10] with partitions listed [18:11] or devices [18:11] [mm-manager.c:145] find_device_support_ready(): Couldn't create modem for device at '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-9': Failed to find primary AT port <--- MM 1.0.3 (or .2 iirc) running 14.04.

[18:17] thanks ActionParsnip, will try those in a bit [18:18] Ubuntu1: you might want to ask in #ubuntuone [18:18] Ubuntu1, perhaps try asking in #ubuntuone [18:18] Homely_Girl: You are probably seeing sda5 and sda6 (or maybe just sda5), those (or that one) is you linux partition(s), and there will also be a swap partition. === zz_scottb is now known as scottb [18:18] Homely_Girl: Right? [18:19] usr13: I'm chatting pvtly with chemist, and I'm getting sorted, thanks. :) [18:19] Homely_Girl: (sda5 and sda6 would be "logical" partitions which are inside the extended partition.) [18:20] Homely_Girl: Ok, just giving a little extra information, (hopefully it helps some). [18:21] usr13: From what I can see 'n that info, sda 1 & 2 are windoze [18:22] Homely_Girl: Correct, (the MS Windows partitions are going to be "primary" partitions, which are numbered 1-4 (as opposed to logical partitions which are 5, 6, 7, ....etc) [18:24] Homely_Girl: Actually, the MS Windows partitions will be numbered 1 and 2 and maybe 3, but the extened partition will be ether 3 or 4, (in your case it is probably sda3), Right? [18:25] i installed quite a few desktop environments when starting out with ubuntu 13.10. I settled on one however I notice that on start up there are a few drop down environment options - one of which is supposed to be completely uninstalled however it appears to be stuck as "default". Can someone point me to how I'd change the default? [18:25] Baobab still says tons of space is used by /usr/share [18:25] Homely_Girl: So you have MS Windows partitions sda1 and sda2 and the extended partition is sda3. Right? === whiskers75 is now known as whisk === whisk is now known as whiskers75 [18:27] Homely_Girl: And within that extended partition, will be your Linux partitions, (numbered 4 and up). [18:27] Homely_Girl: And within that extended partition, will be your Linux partitions, (numbered 5 and up). [18:27] google chrome is not supporting default gtk theme [18:27] correction ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [18:28] whats the best laptop for getting the most out of ubuntu. i used thinkpad w520, but its getting old now and not too sure if the w540 is any good. [18:28] AndroidLoverInSF: The best one is one that works.

Many thanks [18:31] what cinammon works with ubuntu 13.10? mine froze on the first click [18:32] would it be "unity-greeter" or "cinammon2" ? [18:32] yeah sandman13 cinammon works fine [18:32] but not in mine [18:32] Homely_Girl: The easies thing to do is just shrink sda1 down to almost 0, do away with sda2 and move the extended partition down next to sda1 and expand sda5 and sda6 to use up the space. 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). You could just shrink sda1 and sda2 to almost zero and that would be ok too. [18:32] i got this problem because I installed kde, gnome3.10, cinammon2 to find out preferred environments [18:33] sandman13, http://www.webupd8.org/2013/11/cinnamon-20-no-longer-breaks-unity-in.html [18:34] hello... i have install ubuntu 13.10 and my wlan can not connected [18:34] wtf [18:34] 32 hours for settings this wlan fuck [18:34] ablyss: that does not address my problem [18:35] sunshine-api: Use wired connection and do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [18:35] ok , i have no wired,, only wlan [18:35] than i must install later [18:36] sandman13, hmmm thought it would have since its a linux related issue not google chrome [18:36] sunshine-api: Do you have another computer? [18:36] yes [18:36] sunshine-api: (If you have another computer, you can use it to share the connection.) [18:36] sunshine-api: what information have you collected about the hardware, what the operating sees, and what you've tried? [18:36] i've changed "user-session=kde-plasma" > "user-session=ubuntu" Would someone be kind enough to clarify if this is correct for me? I'm just not sure as I'm using cinammon2 [18:36] s/operating/operating system/ [18:36] ablyss: my problem is somewhat like this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/398010/chrome-ui-styles-are-not-working-under-ubuntu-gtk-theme-is-not-working [18:36] my lap its over wlan .. 100% top ubuntu [18:37] my friend have probl. [18:37] sunshine-api: So, help your friend. [18:38] jey i need link [18:38] sandman13, i would still try out chromium as I believe it uses different system config locations [18:38] sunshine-api: connect a cross-over ethernet cable between the two PCs (or if the ethernet port(s) support auto-MDI-X a regular patch cable) and configure IP addresses at each end and routing. Then you can use network from the problem PC to help fix it [18:39] wait i from germany [18:39] TJ-: my knight in silver armour [18:39] i musst translate.. [18:39] i have crossover cable [18:40] how to update my dist without reinstall? [18:40] Zooklubba: haha! Have you made any progress? I missed an eBay auction for that model this morning, was going to pick one up to work on [18:40] 12.04 to 13.10 [18:40] wie can i connect from lap to lap when i use the cable over my wlan [18:41] DrPc: "do-release-upgrade" .... 12.04 > 12.10 > 13.04 > 13.10 ... or wait until April and then do 12.04 > 14.04 [18:41] TJ- nope. unfortunately not. I'm thinking about calling it quits and return the SOAB === defused_ is now known as Shyste [18:41] I was so ready for MM update to do it but no :( [18:41] TJ : in 14/04 auto update? [18:42] Zooklubba: It seems the issue is that the cdc_nm port is a hybrid, which embeds a serial port. You have to then send a specific AT command down that serial line to reconfigure/bring up the real ethernet port [18:42] Zooklubba: this is the problem with lots of Huawei/Qualcomm kit - poor to no support for open source [18:43] Zooklubba: however, I *did* want you to try an experiment before we give up [18:43] TJ-: I wondered if it was just to bridge eth0 and wwan0 or something. [18:43] TJ-: Im pretty close to allow you to do anything you want, anything :P [18:43] Zooklubba: On my device, and from what I've read for your device too, there's an embedded web server. *if* so, if we can get you connected to that, you may be able to reconfigure it to work [18:44] in April myDist (12.04) auto update to 14.04 or manual up to date? [18:44] DrPc: it is not automatic [18:44] TJ-: I'm able to connect another computer on the device's wifi and play around with it [18:44] Pici: thank's [18:44] hallo [18:44] Zooklubba: start off by looking at the screenshot of comment #14 on this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2396752&page=2 [18:44] DrPc: It should prompt you, but the decision is yours. [18:45] Zooklubba: cool, the wifi brings up a web-based configuration? [18:45] we can i connect from crossover cable to other pc over wlan [18:45] TJ- yeah, it has some kind of router admin panel. I haven't looked at it at all though [18:45] Pici: ;-) [18:46] post #14 screens looks similar [18:46] Zooklubba: OK, well first thing I'd like to try is giving your PC's wwan0 an IP address in the same range as the wifi presents, and seeing if you can access the web server directly over wwan0 [18:46] Zooklubba: What IP address does the wifi-side web server appear on? [18:46] ifconfig wwan0 randomip? 192.168.1.1 last time I checked. [18:47] Zooklubba: that'd be the device's IP... OK try this "sudo ifconfig wwan0 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0" [18:47] Zooklubba: then try "ping -nc 192.168.1.1" [18:48] Zooklubba: oops! ... "ping -nc 5 192.168.1.1" [18:48] I have installed Postgres 9.2 and it is running on a non-default port of 5433. How can I configure it to run on the default port of 5432? [18:50] bzitzow : which programming language> [18:50] ? [18:50] TJ-: destination host unreachable [18:51] Zooklubba: oh well :( [18:51] Good grief. Why does Disk Usage Analyzer take so long to scan. === Ozera is now known as Ozera_zz [18:54] Why does GNU documentation quote shell commands with an opening back tick, but a closing single quote? [18:54] `example' [18:54] example, see the title of: https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html [18:57] One thought I had was that if you copy text to the shell, the backtick not being closed will prevent the text from being executed. === Guest83960 is now known as whoever [18:58] TJ-: So you reckon it's time to call it quits? Feels like it. Sorry to pester you so much about it [19:01] Zooklubba: not pestering, don't worry. I've been hacking on my own device and its annoyed me, the terrible Huawei support [19:01] Sorry for asking question and leaving. Anyway, why should /usr/share and /usr/doc be taking up most disk space? [19:01] Zooklubba: here's what I've gathered so far http://tjworld.net/wiki/Huawei/E3131UsbHspa [19:01] Does anyone please guide for Hadoop installation on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ?? [19:01] TJ-: I (not sure what I was expecting) phoned the carrier for support. No one knew what linux or ubuntu was and asked me why I didn't install mac or windows [19:02] Zooklubba: typical reaction, and very sad [19:03] My end goal was to connect the 4G puck to a dd-wrt router. But they (phone support) claimed that modem function over usb wasn't a feature [19:03] And I'm too scared to just tether everything on my phone :P [19:04] Actually, /usr/share/texlive-doc is taking up a lot of space [19:04] Zooklubba: same here... I wonder if you can do like I'm trying to, force it into traditional serial port mode instead? === aslaen is now known as aslaen_ [19:05] skinux: yea, the texlive documentation in really huge -- if you don't need it, I suppose you can get rid of it, but... [19:05] I don't even know what texlive is. === bfiller is now known as bfiller_afk [19:05] skinux: you know what LaTeX is? [19:05] Yes. [19:05] It's a type of text markup [19:05] texlive is a LaTeX distribution. [19:06] Oh. [19:06] I love LaTeX !! [19:06] I don't know why I have doc on my system. [19:06] probably included by default === kura is now known as agsd [19:06] hi [19:07] how check that my /home/ is catalog is crypted?

[19:08] TJ-: even though I consider myself a geek I'm not sure I'm confident enough to start a project like that [19:08] irreverant: Yes, you use alien I believe. [19:08] im tryin to install the linux citrix receiver [19:08] irreverant: ubuntu uses deb packages [19:08] can i install from an rpm? [19:08] sudo alien -iv name-of-your.rpm I think [19:09] * skinux rememebers the days when he had to ask questions like that. :P [19:09] irreverant: or you can download the .deb package from the download section [19:09] im looking === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [19:10] I don't know why some package maintainers don't create deb packages when there is a command to turn RPM into DEB. [19:10] Zooklubba: it is simple... it just needs usb_switchmode and the correct alternate device ID [19:11] It took me 1.2GB of supporting files to run latex :( [19:11] skinux: Which will not produce valid debs. You can install things, but those debs might break your box. [19:11] skinux: because the file system layout and path to libs are fundamentally different between the 2 distros [19:11] Such a big thing to be worried about !! [19:11] I figured the command was correcting things like that. [19:12] skinux: Nope. [19:12] Well, that is kind of dumb. [19:12] skinux: no, you'd have to recompile the source per distro [19:12] skinux: or at leasts, relink the libs on install [19:12] skinux: It is kindo of impossible to convert packages between distros in way you magically correct paths, dependencies, requirements, etc. [19:12] least* [19:13] Oh, because you'd have to change compiled code, right? [19:13] TJ-: would it be simple to get it working as a device recongnised properly by MM/NM? [19:13] skinux: yes [19:13] I've seen productID of 14fe once when I rebooted the device. No idea what other modes it has [19:13] Computer has usb_modeswitch though [19:14] Zooklubba: Yes, that's the point ... put it in traditional serial mode and MM will be OK [19:14] skinux: because of such issues, some packages are incompatible even between ubuntu and debian [19:14] Dynamic path setting would resolve that, but probably more work than any programmer wants to do. [19:15] hallo [19:15] skinux: its not as trivial as you may think [19:15] That's why I said programmers probably don't want to do it. [19:15] TJ-: so would it basically be only usb modeswitch 12d1 1506 to 12d1 14fe? Or how can I make sure/investigate which mode it should be in to put it in serial mode [19:15] I'm a programmer and I don't feel inclined to take on such a task. :P [19:15] i hade a questen i will lern programming and scripting how cann i learn it ?

See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [19:26] 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 device [19:26] this is my problem then__ [19:26] ??

[20:46] Guest75414, well, how did you install ? did you choose encrypted /home/ ? [20:46] Hi. On Windows with web browsers, if I resize the browser, the content scales as it is resizing. In Ubuntu however, the resize only happens after you've chosen the size that you want. Is there any way to enable live resizing in browsers in Ubuntu? [20:46] hitsujuTMO: yeah thats the problem. So i cant use any audio jack inputs. And I also cant output sound through hdmi atm either. [20:47] OerHeks, I didn't encrypt my files [20:48] ogedi: if its not showing up, then its either disabled in the bios, or it is not physically seated correctly in the bus. check that its installed correctly ( with the pc turned off ) [20:48] Error doesn't matter. Synaptic is installing/removing packages anyway. [20:48] hitsujiTMO it is, because I can get it working fine on Windows 7 [20:48] TJ-: its trying to mount (some mount failuer) and shows itself as a virtual cd rom all the time [20:48] hitsujiTMO: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6922110/ [20:48] I'm using two screens btw [20:49] safri5: do you still have an xorg.conf ???

[20:55] tj-: The workaround doesnt work :P [20:56] ogedi: As hitsujiTMO said, the lsusb and lspci output doesn't appear to list that device. How is it connected? internal PCI? on the motherboard? external USB? [20:56] welp its built into the laptop, so Im assuming Mobo or internal pci [20:56] tj-: probably the mobo [20:57] ogedi: TJ- i'm wondering if its a softeare implementation [20:57] software* [20:57] hitsujiTMO: tj- been looking around and people are saying it works on 32bit, but bugs on 64bit (what im running) [21:01] ogedi: first try updating your bios. seems to be a common issue even in windows. === aslaen is now known as aslaen_ [21:01] the grub or bios in general?

From reading the issues, this sounds like its just a software EQ tho. not actually hardware (just as with the dr dre beats eq) [21:03] @hitsujitmo so here? http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/driverdetails?driverid=9X6ND [21:04] ogedi: that looks to be it [21:04] @hitsujiTMo alright, kinda old though :P going to hop over to windows and run that [21:04] @hitsujiTMO brb with what I find out.

[21:16] hitsujiTMO: i only renamed Xauthority.... [21:16] safri5: but before that? [21:16] safri5: also. are you actually using gnome or was it the default ubuntu? [21:19] hitsujiTMO: I think I installed amd graphical SDK for cgminer, and maybe the proprietary driver [21:19] so [21:19] hitsujiTMO: i'm using gnome i think.. [21:19] hitsujitmo i think it just downgraded my drivers LOL!

[21:40] safri5: i'm wondering if the cgminer guide you used set some envvars thats messing up everything. [21:40] hitsujiTMO: it had a couple of export display lines i didn't like the look of.. [21:40] safri5: normally cgminer is ran on a headless server, and most guides would be written to facilitate this. it could be that the cgminer config has messed up your system [21:40] hitsujiTMO: I guess it's true what they say "greed kills" :P === scottb is now known as zz_scottb [21:41] on ubuntu 12.04, when you upgraded glibc but can't immediately reboot, is there some way to reload init? i seem to remember you could do init -u or something on debian? [21:41] hitsujiTMO: damn. can't i reinstall everything display related? [21:42] safri5: without knowning the scripts you used did then i can't say for sure if that will fix anything [21:42] I 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] Which tells me, the generated xorg.conf must be containing different options than what's being used in automatic mode (with xorg.conf absent). Is there a way to enable emulate3buttons, without creating a full xorg.conf file? [21:43] hitsujiTMO: what can I do then? [21:43] hello here can someone help me to test a link ?

[21:50] and you think my website is not on ubuntu ? [21:50] hitsujiTMO: I guess reinstallation is the only option. +100 internets for you :P [21:50] okay34: I think streaming your mobile application is nothing to do with ubuntu.

"guitool create 600,400" "guitool text 'blahblah'"?

[22:23] ureadahead [22:23] i imagine therefor is working. hrunning with the the verbose flag states its packed some things. but are there any config files or any other optimizations [22:24] pvl1: what are you talking about ???

I installed Joomla on my ubuntu 12.04 running in a VirtualBox VM and after I went through the install tutorial, I want to start the web installer (localhost/joomla/ in the browser) and it shows localhost/joomla index.php but it is not displaying any content [22:24] pvl1: you're asking if it has the "kernel path" and now you're saying it's already installed ???? [22:24] zaitzev: have you tried to restart samba after your configuration change? "sudo service samba restart"? Also try to logout/login your user session (on linux) once. [22:24] pvl1: I don't know how relevant it is, but when I have the password dialog open on Windows, it says DOMAIN: [22:24] ikonia: i custom compiled a kernel. didnt know if ureadahead needed special kernel configs. turns out its already been instaled on this system and is working [22:24] minimec: Tried them both yeah [22:25] zaitzev: OK ;) [22:25] the folder is owned by www-data [22:25] pvl1: you're not making sense [22:25] zaitzev: it may be asking for the username password that is configured in samba [22:25] black0ut: ok. lets start from the start. how did you install apache, php5, et al. ? [22:25] file permissions for the index.php is -rw-r--r-- [22:25] pvl1: and I haven't configured such a thing [22:25] sudo apt-get install [22:26] it worked before [22:26] im lucky found it fast [22:26] :) [22:26] http://cl.ly/image/1K3H08362t1V [22:26] I had joomla 3.1.5 running before [22:26] but i deleted it [22:26] pvl1: I would've thought it used a username/password of an existing user on the system.

[22:27] black0ut: ok. when you say not displaying content. do you mean you are getting a blank html file back from the server when you visit localhost/joomla/index.php ? [22:27] pvl1 is there some special theme or such ? [22:27] coming to these? [22:27] pvl1: no problem, just couldn't get my head arond what you where asking, patch makes total sense [22:27] yes [22:27] ui: that is a tiling wm. there are a lot of it. [22:28] ui dot files are "themes" [22:28] ui: try awesome wm [22:28] hm [22:28] it is "redirecting" to the index.php when I type localhost/joomla but not showing anything [22:28] ui: thats a tiling window manager [22:28] awesome wm ?
