[02:41] <Nacho01> hi i need to install xubuntu i haven't any o.s. installed i downloaded the v. 13.10 and a menu called busy box 1.20.2 opened....can i install xubuntu with this busybox?
[02:44] <well_laid_lawnch> Nacho01:  no. how did you try and boot the live cd and did you md5 the iso ?
[02:44] <well_laid_lawnch> !md5
[02:48] <Nacho01> my hdisk is formatted I havent any os installed.....i copy th xubuntu image with nero on a dvd
[03:01] <holstein> Nacho01: no
[03:01] <holstein> !install | Nacho01
[03:07] <Nacho01> !install
[03:07] <holstein> Nacho01: you have the installer iso downloaded?
[03:09] <Nacho01> i downloaded only the iso from p2p, the torrent from the xubuntu page
[03:09] <holstein> Nacho01: so, do you have the installer iso downloaded then? or just the .torrent?
[03:10] <Nacho01> no, i downloaded the iso, 834 mb and put it on a dvd whit nero
[03:10] <Nacho01> !automate
[03:11] <holstein> Nacho01: you dont want to automate..
[03:11] <Nacho01> ok
[03:11] <holstein> so, you do have the installer downloaded then? and you have DVD you have made.. what happens when you boot? just an error messgae?
[03:13] <Nacho01> no, a message of "unable to find a medim containing a live file system" and a "busybox v1.20.2" built-in shell opened
[03:15] <holstein> Nacho01: sounds like you have either a bad download image.. which, you can confirm with..
[03:15] <holstein> !md5 | Nacho01
[03:15] <holstein> or, you have a bad dvd, or bad burn...
[03:16] <Nacho01> ok i m downloading the 12.04 lts and will try with it tomorrow
[03:16] <holstein> Nacho01: if you boot the dvd, and hit shift while its loading, right after the bios creen, you may see a screen that offeres an "integrety check"
[03:16] <fibz_> i've had bad disks pass ther integrity check
[03:17] <holstein> Nacho01: sure.. as long as you know that that is not the issue.. and likely whatever the problem is wil still be there on that iso as well
[03:17] <Nacho01> thanks holstein
[03:17] <Nacho01> i will try this way now, too
[03:17] <holstein> yeah.. i prefer to check the md5
[03:46] <sleezio> hello, can someone refresh my memory on the path to see your mounted drives in your local?
[03:47] <sleezio> google isn't being much help
[03:48] <fibz_>  /media/username
[03:48] <Unit193> Are you talking about mounted harddrives or flash drives?  /media/$user/uuid
[03:50] <sleezio> well, i guess it really isn't mounted, it's a usb drive on my router
[03:50] <sleezio> i used to know the path when doing big file transfers with gsync
[03:51] <sleezio> fibz_, aaah, yes, i see my mounted internal drive there...where would i find the local path to my network(router/usb) drive?...or is there a path to it?
[03:53] <sleezio> i'm wanting to get a list of file names on my usb/router drive in terminal, so i'm guessing i need to be able to see the path locally....?
[03:53] <fibz_>  /usr/share/gvfs/ if i remember
[03:53] <sleezio> aah, looks fimiliar, lemme check
[03:55] <sleezio> nuh, not showing up, but i do recall 'gvfs' being in the path, i'll search
[03:58] <sleezio> nuh, not seeing it on local so i can browse it..i'm guessing it only shows up if mounted
[03:58] <fibz_>  for me in Ubuntu Studio it is:  /run/user/fibz/gvfs
[03:59] <fibz_> yes it bmust be mounted b4 it shows
[04:03] <sleezio> sweet, i figured out a way to achieve this, thanks for the help
[08:32] <CraHan> For those interested (you never know :D), my VirtualBox issue is resolved. Apparently the latest guest additions (4.3.6) don't recognize the X version in 14.04 so they fail to install. Totally missed that error message. The fix is to use the pre-release 4.3.7 guest additions available at https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/12623
[09:34] <xubuntu139> Hey all,
[09:34] <xubuntu139> I went and bought a new build with these parts
[09:35] <xubuntu139> graphics card : AMD R9 270x, AMD FX8350 Processor and an Asus M5A99FX pro motherboard
[09:35] <xubuntu139> I installed windows fine
[09:36] <xubuntu139> then I installed ubuntu and when I select it from the grub boot menu it just goes black
[09:36] <xubuntu139> I have tried nomodeset and still nothing
[09:37] <xubuntu139> was thinking xubuntu might offer something new instead of a black screen
[09:37] <xubuntu139> anyone got any thoughts to what my problem might be?
[09:54] <fzninuse> Hi! Is there a GUI tool for settings .pac proxy files to the whole environment?
[10:04] <superprower_> Hi all. Anybody know, which distro has no graphic interface, but has default copy-past-rename-create folder commands?
[10:05] <well_laid_lawn> ubuntu server and mv ?
[10:05] <cfhowlett> !server
[10:07] <well_laid_lawn> even the mini iso might work for that
[10:53] <User_> hello
[10:54] <cfhowlett> User_, greetings
[10:55] <User_> I have one (big for me) problem...
[10:59] <User_> I tried to set the xmodmap to the changes permanent, but command xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap not workin (xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc too)
[10:59] <User_> can someone help me?
[11:02] <slickymaster-job> User_: please refer to http://askubuntu.com/questions/54157/how-do-i-set-xmodmap-on-login
[11:09] <User_> thank you very much slickymaster-job I don't see this :/
[11:13] <starrats> thanks for the link slickymaster-job, I don't have any problems but I like to bkmk links just in case if I have a problem!
[11:14] <slickymaster-job> starrats: np
[11:14] <slickymaster-job> I'm assuming that bkmk you mean bookmark, right?
[11:17] <starrats> yes it does, my short version, lol
[11:17] <starrats> good morning to you too!
[11:18] <slickymaster-job> and a good one to you also
[11:18] <starrats> thank you
[14:45] <superprower_> Hi, i just installed Guitar Pro 6 from deb file, and now i want to remove it. He is installed in opt folder. Should i just delete the folder? Or is here some light app for this?
[14:57] <Unit193> superprower_: sudo apt-get purge  whateverpcakagename it used.
[14:57] <Unit193> CraHan: Please don't use noisy away nicks.
[14:57] <Unit193> CraHan: Also yeah, hit that vbox issue myself couple days ago.
[14:59] <Decap> sh
[15:01] <Unit193> $
[15:01] <superprower_> Unit193, and how to get him package name? I tried guitarpro, guitar-pro, guitarpro6, but it doesnt work
[15:02] <Unit193> apt-cache search guitar pro  or use USC or Synaptic to get the name.  If you still have the deb file, dpkg -I file.deb  will say.
[15:03] <Decap> superprower_, Just a heads up about guitarpro, its badly packaged
[15:03] <Decap> http://askubuntu.com/questions/149951/how-do-i-install-a-32-bit-proprietary-deb-on-a-64-bit-system-without-causing-dep
[15:04] <slickymaster-job> superprower_: or you can just run dpkg --get-selections ! grep guitar*
[15:04] <slickymaster-job> superprower_: correction: dpkg --get-selections | grep guitar*
[15:05]  * slickymaster-job slaps his keyboard
[15:05] <holstein> you can use a GUI package manager such as synaptic if you are more comfortable with that superprower_
[15:07] <Unit193> dpkg -l | grep guitar   being lazy way.
[15:13] <slickymaster-job> lazy is good Unit193 :P
[15:14] <holstein> lazy = efficient :)
[16:09] <coolgoat> Hello there! I'm having an issue with installation of the 64-bit version of 13.10 via usb, and was hoping someone on here would be able to help. Computer is a Gigabyte motherboard with an AMD FX processor. The BIOS is set to boot from usb. When I let it boot, I get the Try Without Installing/Install/Install OEM/Check Disk For Errors screen. Whichever option I pick (though I haven't tried OEM), I get the Xubuntu loading screen for a
[16:10] <holstein> coolgoat: i would just work back through the variables.. does the stick boot on *any* other machine.. can the machine boot *any* usb stick.. does the md5 sum check?
[16:10] <holstein> !md5
[16:10] <holstein> what did you use to make the stick? if unetbootin, try something else.. of not unetbootin, try it
[16:11] <holstein> try optical media if its an option
[16:11] <holstein> !mini
[16:11] <holstein> ^^ you can use one of these iso's to install minimal 64bit ubuntu, and add what you want/need, such as xubuntu-desktop
[16:12] <coolgoat> I checked the MD5, I don't have another usb around to test with unfortunately, I did use unetbootin, and I'll give the minimalcd a shot.
[16:13] <holstein> coolgoat: dont get caught up and any step here. just keep moving.. keep in mind that the iso's *do* work, and this is something on your end
[16:13] <holstein> coolgoat: just keep going through the things that you can address and test for
[16:14] <coolgoat> Also, the actual error it gives is "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" if that's any help
[16:14] <holstein> sure.. that could be any of the above issues.. bad stick.. bad method of creating stick.. bad iso.. machine doesnt boot USB proprely. .. bad hardware
[16:15] <holstein> coolgoat: i would start with trying unetbootin if you are not, after checking the md5 sum
[16:15] <holstein> coolgoat: you could elaborate about how you make the stick.. dd? unet?
[16:15] <coolgoat> Yeah, I checked the md5 of the iso and used unetbootin to create the usb I'm using
[16:16] <holstein> i have had issues with unet before.. you can try formatting the stick fresh and try unet again.. or try dd copying.. its quicker to get a result using the mini iso's since they are smaller
[16:17] <coolgoat> makes sense, I'll give the mini a shot
[16:17] <coolgoat> I did try dd before and got the same error, but I'm also not 100% sure I formatted it correctly that time
[16:18] <holstein> sure.. and all your hardware is still in the equation.. same stick, same computer.. etc
[16:19] <holstein> you can keep trying software solutions all you want, but if thats a bad stick, or the hardware is bad, you wont "fix" the installer.. since its not broken
[16:20] <holstein> http://askubuntu.com/questions/15425/unable-to-find-a-medium-containing-a-live-file-system-error-when-installing suggests similar levels of troubleshooting
[16:20] <coolgoat> yeah, but unfortunately I don't have another stick around, and the only other computer I have is the one I'm on now
[16:20] <holstein> tring different usb ports, and bios settings
[16:20] <coolgoat> yeah, I've already gone through that one unfortunately
[16:20] <holstein> ideally, you would have *any* other computer laying about.. then you can say "i know this stick works"
[16:21] <holstein> otherwise, you are troubleshooting the media and the machine at the same time
[16:22] <coolgoat> yeah, but this isn't really an ideal situation. the computer i'm on now sees the usb and mounts it, but i haven't tried actually booting into it
[16:22] <holstein> seeing and mounting is not relevant
[16:22] <coolgoat> yeah, that's what i figured
[16:22] <holstein> coolgoat: what you are asking the machine to do is *before* all of that
[16:22] <holstein> coolgoat: at a bios level
[16:22] <coolgoat> yeah, that's what i thought
[16:23] <holstein> all you can determine from that is, the stick is probably not broken, and the motherboard/usb hardware is probably not broken
[16:24] <holstein> coolgoat: you have tried booting a CD/DVD?
[16:24] <holstein> coolgoat: have you ever booting *anything* other than an internal hard drive on that machine?
[16:25] <coolgoat> all i've tried is internal hard drive and this usb
[16:25] <coolgoat> i've got an optical drive but since 13.10 doesn't fit on a cd and i don't have any blank dvds i couldn't try the optical
[16:26] <coolgoat> i'll try a mini iso on a cd though
[16:27] <holstein> sounds like a plan
[16:29] <coolgoat> should i burn it at any particular speed?
[16:29] <coolgoat> options are 8x and 24x
[16:29] <holstein> coolgoat: thats up to you.. its all hardware related.. nothing particular to xubuntu in any way
[16:30] <holstein> what would i do? go with defaults til that fails, then try slower, hopefuly more reliable speeds
[16:30] <coolgoat> right on
[16:30] <holstein> you should be able to at least rule out bios setting issues and the usb stick here with a CD and the mini iso
[17:30] <coolgoat> i've tried the mini iso cd and unfortunately my internet connection is having issues but the installation got up to configuring the network, so it seems like optical would work?
[17:30] <holstein> coolgoat: if its working, sure
[17:31] <holstein> coolgoat: could be a bad usb stick, or something to do with the machine booting USB
[17:31] <coolgoat> it can't configure the network so it can't download the install files but i figure if it's gotten this far it should be fine
[17:31] <coolgoat> yeah, seems so
[17:31] <coolgoat> i guess i'll wait until i can get some blank dvds and try that
[17:31] <holstein> sure.. or, how are you trying to connect to the network? wireless?
[17:31] <coolgoat> ethernet plugged into the router
[17:32] <holstein> that should work. i would let the installer complete, then reboot, and install from the command prompt
[17:32] <coolgoat> well, the thing is, it says it can't configure dhcp
[17:32] <holstein> coolgoat: dont install anything while installing the system, and dont let 'it" do anything
[17:32] <holstein> coolgoat: you will make the system connect after its installed
[17:32] <coolgoat> oh, alright
[17:33] <coolgoat> so i can skip network autoconfig then?
[17:33] <holstein> coolgoat: i do
[17:33] <coolgoat> alright, cool, thanks
[17:33] <holstein> coolgoat: i just break it up.. im just trying to install. otherwise, im again troubleshooting many things at once
[17:33] <coolgoat> makes sense
[17:34] <holstein> i just get an installed system, and go from there
[17:34] <holstein> ideally, it'll "just work" from the installed system..
[17:36] <coolgoat> hmm, i'm not sure if it's actually installing. the screen is just purple with a white bar at the bottom
[17:38] <holstein> coolgoat: id give it some time.. its not the installer you are likely used to seeing
[17:38] <coolgoat> alright, will do
[17:39] <xubuntu364> Newbie with 13.10 successfully installed on Lenovo 3000 N200 laptop (i.e., replace Vista).  However, there is no wifi signal (and it is turned on) so I am assuming a missing driver.  Can anyone advise how to find and install driver.  Thanks.
[17:39] <coolgoat> holstein: is the bar at the bottom a progress bar by any chance? the leftmost part of it is black but doesn't seem to be changing
[17:41] <holstein> coolgoat: id have to see it.. i dont typically wait on "it" to do things.. but it wont hurt to give it a few minutes
[17:41] <holstein> !wifi | xubuntu364
[17:41] <holstein> xubuntu364: its likely just a broadcom driver issue..
[17:42] <holstein> !broadcom
[17:42] <holstein> i would run "lspci" in a terminal and see if you see "broadcom" there.. then, the page above will help you determine what package broadcom doesnt allow ubuntu/linux to provide you easily
[18:07] <coolgoat> holstein: turns out that white bar was a command line
[18:08] <holstein> coolgoat: lol
[18:12] <coolgoat> any advice? "help" doesn't return anything
[18:13] <holstein> coolgoat: on installing? just follow the installer.. if its not instaling, restart, and try again
[18:15] <coolgoat> ah, alright, thanks
[18:15] <holstein> coolgoat: you can talk down the steps you are seeing if you want
[18:21] <coolgoat> restart, goes to GNU GRUB version 2.00-19ubuntu2, options are install/command-line install/expert install/command-line expert install/rescue mode
[18:21] <coolgoat> my instinct would be to go with install but maybe that's not the best option?
[18:22] <holstein> i do normal defaults until it doesnt meet my needs
[18:22] <holstein> the simpler setups.
[18:22] <coolgoat> right on, makes sense
[18:23] <holstein> i say, if this iso isnt working for you, let it go, and try the lubuntu one.. you can install xfce or xubuntu-desktop from there, and it should be cd sized
[18:23] <holstein> you can burn up hours/days at this stuff...
[18:26] <coolgoat> yeah, i think my internet connection might just not be working for some reason
[18:26] <holstein> could be.. that'll be key to the minimal at some point
[18:26] <coolgoat> i'll give lubuntu a shot if it'll fit on a cd. if not i might just put it off until i can get a dvd
[18:29] <coolgoat> unfortunately downloading lubuntu is going to take about an hour so i'm gonna go ahead and hop off of here, but thanks a lot for your help!
[18:29] <holstein> coolgoat: sure.. goodluck!
[18:30] <coolgoat> thanks!
