| zsw_ | hello can someone help me set up an ad hoc network please | 02:01 |
|---|---|---|
| fibz_ | in the upper right corner you should see two arrows pointing up/down if you are disconnected from wireless (or wireless signal bars if connected) | 02:04 |
| fibz_ | click there -> create new wireless network | 02:04 |
| zsw_ | i have ethernet | 02:04 |
| zsw_ | ok then what | 02:05 |
| fibz_ | we are looking for the network indicator. it should be somewhere near volume control | 02:05 |
| zsw_ | what? | 02:05 |
| fibz_ | ok | 02:05 |
| zsw_ | can you slow down | 02:05 |
| fibz_ | so give it a name, and if you want security, choose one and type a password | 02:05 |
| zsw_ | one sec | 02:05 |
| zsw_ | so i create network and it try to connect but fail | 02:07 |
| fibz_ | does it pop up asking for the password or just do nothing? are you able to connect to other wifi networks with this device? | 02:09 |
| fibz_ | if you are using wpa or wpa2, does the connecting device's network controller support wpa/wpa2? | 02:09 |
| zsw_ | no i create network and then it did the thing when it try to connect to wifi and then it stopped | 02:11 |
| fibz_ | yeah nothing happens on that device. now use another device to see if it can see the network (it could take a couple minutes for a new network to show) | 02:12 |
| zsw_ | im gonna create another one | 02:12 |
| zsw_ | nothing happen | 02:13 |
| zsw_ | http://imgur.com/dbgIV3M,yI78GUh,vpJ6mHr press next at top left corner | 02:20 |
| fibz_ | check /var/log/syslog and scroll down to the bottom. see anything about the wireless or network connections? | 02:20 |
| zsw_ | no | 02:21 |
| fibz_ | try using wep | 02:22 |
| zsw_ | wait edit connections? | 02:22 |
| fibz_ | what are you expecting to see once you click create? | 02:23 |
| zsw_ | use wifi network on my android | 02:25 |
| zsw_ | it dident work | 02:26 |
| fibz_ | im on 12.04 right now which does not have that first box, the connect: box. what are the options there? you may need to select ad hoc | 02:26 |
| zsw_ | you have to go through edit connections | 02:27 |
| fibz_ | the first selection box in this image http://i.imgur.com/dbgIV3M.png | 02:27 |
| fibz_ | also, forget encryption for now, just for testing purposes | 02:28 |
| fibz_ | leave it open to rule that out as a problem | 02:28 |
| zsw_ | im on ubuntu 13.10 | 02:28 |
| zsw_ | and i did | 02:28 |
| zsw_ | and it still not working | 02:29 |
| fibz_ | well with no error message to go with in the log, and no one else around here helping at the moment, i'd ask in #ubuntu | 02:30 |
| zsw_ | http://imgur.com/JOVbXcN | 02:30 |
| zsw_ | im banned from #ubuntu | 02:30 |
| zsw_ | give me a sec ok | 02:31 |
| fibz_ | that is your wired connection | 02:31 |
| fibz_ | are you able to see and connect to wifi devices with at ubuntu 13.10 | 02:31 |
| fibz_ | or not | 02:31 |

| zack235 | fibz_ hi | 04:01 |
| Kubius | Hello | 04:48 |
| Kubius | I'm having a problem with overscan | 04:48 |
| Kubius | I'm using an HDMI TV as a monitor using a DVI-to-HDMI converter | 04:49 |
| Kubius | I can't seem to find any way to disable it | 04:49 |
| fibz_ | nvidia drivers in use? | 04:56 |
| Kubius | yes | 05:05 |
| Kubius | I have gone into the nvidia x control center thing and there's no overscan anything | 05:05 |
| holstein | i would test without the converter | 05:06 |
| Kubius | I've hooked the same monitor up to a raspberry pi running raspbian, straight HDMI output | 05:07 |
| Kubius | same issue occured | 05:07 |
| Kubius | I dunno what the overscan issue is | 05:08 |
| Kubius | okay, I phrased it wrong | 05:08 |
| Kubius | I need to enable it | 05:08 |
| Kubius | not disable it | 05:08 |
| holstein | sounds like it could be the TV | 05:08 |
| Kubius | It likely is | 05:08 |
| Kubius | but I cannot find any setting to change on the TV | 05:08 |
| fibz_ | http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=180674 | 05:08 |
| holstein | i know, my raspian "just works"... if thats a telling test case | 05:09 |
| holstein | i havent tried with a dvi-hdmi do the same TV | 05:09 |
| Kubius | Yeah I actually need to enable overscan on the device I think | 05:09 |
| Kubius | there's no black border | 05:09 |
| holstein | Kubius: im afraid, it seems that way to me, from what you are saying | 05:09 |
| fibz_ | check that link | 05:09 |
| Kubius | christ almighty | 05:10 |
| Kubius | that link is utterly full of popups | 05:10 |
| Kubius | and.. other unsavory things | 05:10 |
| fibz_ | i have adblock edge installed so... | 05:10 |
| Kubius | what I don't understand is why the raspi can do overscan so easy and xubuntu can't | 05:11 |
| Kubius | probably native firmware | 05:11 |
| Kubius | or something like that | 05:11 |
| fibz_ | thats up to nvidia to write better driver interface | 05:11 |
| Kubius | nvidia takes forever to do anything | 05:12 |
| Kubius | the monitor works with no overscan effect using VGA | 05:13 |
| Kubius | but has 640x480 resolution | 05:13 |
| Kubius | streteched and awful | 05:13 |
| fibz_ | no other options in AR&R? | 05:14 |
| Kubius | huh | 05:14 |
| Kubius | what is that | 05:15 |
| fibz_ | launcher menu -> settings -> AR&R | 05:17 |
| Kubius | in applications -> settings I have: settings manager, additional drivers, input method switcher, settings editor, onboard settings, and some other stuff | 05:19 |
| fibz_ | sudo apt-get install arandr | 05:19 |
| fibz_ | or install from software center | 05:20 |
| Kubius | ok I have it up | 05:23 |
| Kubius | options at the top: layout, view, outputs, system, help | 05:24 |
| fibz_ | outputs -> whatever ouptu -> resolution | 05:24 |
| Kubius | tried setting it to 1680x1050 | 05:24 |
| Kubius | went v. weird | 05:24 |
| Kubius | horizontal lines all over the screen | 05:25 |
| Kubius | 1920x1080 or bust apparently | 05:25 |
| fibz_ | try view-> 1:16 | 05:26 |
| Kubius | I get a tiny white box with default | 05:26 |
| Kubius | and black to its right | 05:26 |
| Kubius | in the window | 05:29 |
| Kubius | it seems not to be helping at all | 05:29 |
| fibz_ | sudo nvidia-settings --assign 0/CurrentMetaMode="DFP-0: 1920x1080 { ViewPortIn=1920x1080, ViewPortOut=1840x1034+40+20 }" | 05:29 |
| fibz_ | from that link i posted | 05:29 |
| Kubius | ok sure I'll try that | 05:30 |
| Kubius | worth a shot | 05:30 |
| Kubius | "error querying target relations" | 05:32 |
| Kubius | maybe I mistyped it? | 05:32 |
| fibz_ | the command likely needs to be adjusted for your system | 05:32 |
| Kubius | Well what the hell | 05:33 |
| fibz_ | and i dont have any nvidia systems | 05:33 |
| Kubius | I just run nvidia-settings and the error comes up | 05:33 |
| Kubius | apparently it's an x window system error? | 05:34 |
| fibz_ | its the nvidia driver | 05:34 |
| Kubius | hraagh | 05:34 |
| Kubius | apparently nvidia does not care about linux users at all ever | 05:34 |
| fibz_ | try in #nvidia | 05:35 |
| fibz_ | no they do not. that link i posted was mostly people griping about how nvidia doesnt care about it's customers | 05:35 |
| Kubius | someone ought to march into their corporate *cough*lair*cough* headquarters and grump at someone | 05:38 |
| Kubius | ah well | 05:39 |
| Kubius | guess you've helped me all you can | 05:39 |
| Kubius | I guess I'll be off now | 05:39 |
| akis | hi all. i am wondering if zipcloack's password protected zip files is there any chance no to be able to be decompressed with ark or any other compress/decompress program because of any future system update with reult the lost of data. any opinion on that? | 05:47 |
| fibz_ | it works with compressed file encryption standards | 05:49 |
| fibz_ | pkzip is recommended for windows users who want to decompress the file | 05:50 |
| fibz_ | i recommend 7zip | 05:52 |
| akis | ok. ark now works fine with zipcloak pass protected files. is there chance not to be able to be decompressed with any of those programs (7zip, pkzip etc) under ubuntu, or other linux OS, or win OS? Or the decompress procedure is a "standard" procedure which is understand from any OS? | 05:55 |
| shain | I am tech savvy in Windows only. I have had only minimal exposure to Linux. I am sorry that I can't answer my own, probably obvious, question. I am trying to install Xubuntu, Kubuntu, or *buntu, but I have some weird hurdles I don't know what to do about. I am poor, and I can't afford to buy any better disks at the moment. My burnable CDs have a maximum capacity of 702MB. All the CD ISO files | 06:12 |
| shain | I have downloaded have been larger than that, so I tried a couple minimal installations to no avail. I couldn't get very far in the installation, because it stopped me when there was a network error of some kind, which basically stated that it couldn't find the DHCP sever. Which ISO that is less than 700MB, but also good for aspiring Linux heads (no termal knowledge). | 06:12 |

| Golynx | Hi what is the keyboard shortcut for screenshots in 12.04 | 07:36 |
| Golynx | That camera icon clutters my panel | 07:37 |
| fibz_ | the Print Screen key on your keyboard | 07:37 |
| fibz_ | PRT SCR (or SysRQ) | 07:38 |
| fibz_ | should be near the pause button. upper right corner | 07:39 |
| Golynx | fibz_ : nothing happens | 07:39 |
| fibz_ | it should have opened screenshot in a popup. have you configured a default action (like save to...) | 07:39 |
| Golynx | i even try alt+prt sc still nthing\ | 07:39 |
| Golynx | default action ? what is that | 07:41 |
| fibz_ | if the keymapping has been changed, you can go to launcher menu -> settings -> settings manager -> keyboard -> Application Shortcuts -> look for "xfce-screenshooter" | 07:41 |
| Golynx | ok | 07:41 |
| fibz_ | change it to whatever you want | 07:41 |
| fibz_ | might be an issue with that button on that keyboard? (or keyboard layout) | 07:42 |
| Golynx | I only see launcher menu -> settings -> settings editor -> | 07:43 |
| Golynx | no settings manager | 07:43 |
| Golynx | its a laptop | 07:43 |
| fibz_ | is there keyboard in settings? | 07:45 |
| fibz_ | or is there a settings manager in the main launcher menu? | 07:46 |
| Golynx | yes its launcher menu -> settings -> keyboard -> Application Shortcuts | 07:46 |
| fibz_ | there | 07:46 |
| fibz_ | yes | 07:46 |
| Golynx | I chose add new shortcut command and it shows nothing about screenshooter in executables | 07:47 |
| Golynx | Only thing close to screen is "Screendump" | 07:48 |
| fibz_ | xfce4-screenshooter -f | 07:48 |
| Golynx | Theres nothing about xfce4-screenshooter in the list | 07:49 |
| fibz_ | thats the problem. thats why nothing happens when the button is pressed | 07:50 |
| Golynx | hmm | 07:50 |
| fibz_ | click the "New" button and add the command xfce4-screenshooter -f | 07:50 |
| Golynx | Nothing happens | 07:51 |
| fibz_ | when you click New? | 07:51 |
| fibz_ | Add* i'm sorry | 07:52 |
| Golynx | in the keyboard settings | 07:52 |
| Golynx | yes "Add" | 07:52 |
| fibz_ | alt-tab around. you sure nothing popped-under? | 07:52 |
| Golynx | it says : This shortcut is already being used by a window manager action. Which action do you want to use? | 07:53 |
| fibz_ | okay then lets go to launcher -> settings -> settings editor, go to keyboard shortcuts and click New | 07:54 |
| fibz_ | okay | 07:54 |
| fibz_ | are you able to open the screen shooter from launcher? | 07:55 |
| Golynx | yes from the icon | 07:55 |
| Golynx | Nothing is editable in launcher -> settings -> settings editor, go to keyboard shortcuts | 07:57 |
| fibz_ | keyboard settings is telling you that you cant add it again, because it is already there | 07:57 |
| Golynx | if its already there then what is its shortcut? | 07:58 |
| fibz_ | try a new one without the -f and bound to a different key, not Print Screen | 07:59 |
| Golynx | where ? in launcher menu -> settings -> keyboard -> Application Shortcuts | 07:59 |
| fibz_ | yes | 07:59 |
| Golynx | its works :) | 08:02 |
| Golynx | i chose Alt+p as the shortcut | 08:03 |
| fibz_ | there we go | 08:03 |
| Golynx | fibz_ : thanks | 08:03 |
| fibz_ | your welcome | 08:03 |
| jonesey | Hello | 08:46 |
| jonesey | Just a quick question, I am running Xubuntu 12.04 LTS, I have 307 updates, how do I access the update manager? | 08:47 |
| fibz_ | launcher ("start") menu -> system -> software updater (or launcher -> terminal emulator -> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 08:48 |
| knome | fibz_, he's gone, i had the answer almost typed as well.. | 08:49 |

| dan62 | Bonjour a tous, la nouvelle version XB 14.04 sera-t-elle un lts? | 10:53 |
| bazhang | yes | 11:29 |
| bazhang | 14.04 is LTS | 11:29 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu+1 for discussion please dan62 | 11:30 |
| bazhang | augh he quit | 11:30 |
| codfather | A quick question about 14.04 - are there any plans to have a proxy settings tool with the network system settings app? It would save a whole pile of post install configuration if it was. | 12:40 |
| codfather | BTW - loving the new settings manager in 14.04 a real improvement over previous LTS version | 12:41 |
| baizon | codfather: this is a question for #xubuntu-devel | 12:44 |
| codfather | ok thanks | 12:44 |

| mbs | Hi new to Xubuntu, but ive used a few *buntus in my time. Quick question in the power options the 'Spin down disks' click box is greyed out, how do i get it working? is there a package i need to install or is it a bug? | 15:39 |
| Belial` | nice...sync to vblank in 14.04 is working good. | 15:49 |
| Belial` | doesn't slow down window dragging like the "TearFree" option for intel cards. | 15:49 |

| xubuntu388 | Hello World! I have a problem VirtualBox Xubuntu.Please help me. | 17:47 |
| xubuntu388 | My laptop is Asus x54c-sx041d Intel Celeron Dual Core CPU Intel Pentium B960 2.2 GHZ Memory 2 GB DDR 3 GB HDD 500 GB | 17:49 |
| xubuntu388 | In VirtualBox is ok memory 512 MB? | 17:51 |
| mapps | hey | 17:51 |
| koegs | xubuntu388: do you want to run xubuntu inside virtualbox? | 17:51 |
| xubuntu388 | yes | 17:51 |
| mapps | yea 512mb should be fine i think | 17:52 |
| mapps | more the better obviously | 17:52 |
| xubuntu388 | Or 128 MB? | 17:52 |
| mapps | i wouldn't go that low | 17:52 |
| koegs | 512 should be ok, 1024 is better :) | 17:52 |
| xubuntu388 | a ok 1024 is ok | 17:52 |
| mapps | ya | 17:53 |
| mapps | 1024 is better for sure | 17:53 |
| xubuntu388 | Thanks | 17:53 |
| holstein | xubuntu388: you can change those afterwards | 17:53 |
| xubuntu388 | ok | 17:53 |
| mapps | could someone lend me a hand please -- sudo doesnt seem to work? i know about the /etc/sudoers file i added my username mark but it did nothing | 17:53 |
| holstein | xubuntu388: install with as much as you can spare.. then you can "starve" test it as you please | 17:53 |
| mapps | when i go to user settings click mark then click advanced it says account locked due to 47 login failures - then asks to auhenticate to modify sys config..and come sback incorrect pass | 17:54 |
| holstein | mapps: i would go to tty.. login, and try "sudo -s" to test that you can get sudo or not | 17:54 |
| holstein | http://askubuntu.com/questions/7477/how-can-i-add-a-new-user-as-sudoer-using-the-command-line | 17:54 |
| holstein | sudo adduser <username> sudo is where i start | 17:54 |
| mapps | ok thanks | 17:55 |
| mapps | so sudo -s | 17:55 |
| mapps | yea thats what i mean i cant | 17:55 |
| mapps | sudo -s asks for a password or mark | 17:55 |
| mapps | then fails | 17:55 |
| mapps | user mark is in group sudo and i added mark to the sudoers file | 17:55 |
| holstein | mapps: so, you can use a terminal, and shart the "failing" in a pastebin | 17:56 |
| holstein | mapps: AFAIK, you will need to logout and back in | 17:56 |
| mapps | sure | 17:56 |
| koegs | are you sure you have the correct password for the user "mark"? | 17:56 |
| mapps | 100% as i logged in on the system using user mark | 17:56 |
| mapps | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6966666/ | 17:58 |
| holstein | mapps: can you login to mark in tty? | 17:59 |
| mapps | not sure what you mean..do you mean ssh in? | 17:59 |
| holstein | !tty | mapps | 17:59 |
| ubottu | mapps: To get to the TTY terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login). To change the resolution for your TTY, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution | 17:59 |
| holstein | but, via ssh would do as well | 17:59 |
| mapps | then yep via ssh no problem | 18:00 |
| holstein | i want to see a promt, where "mark" logs in, then sudo -i fails | 18:00 |
| mapps | http://askubuntu.com/questions/7477/how-can-i-add-a-new-user-as-sudoer-using-the-command-line mentions the sudoers and the group line ..and i have that | 18:00 |
| mapps | i showed that o pastebin didnt i? | 18:00 |
| holstein | no | 18:00 |
| holstein | thats mark, already logged in,a nd the password failing | 18:00 |
| mapps | ah | 18:00 |
| mapps | so what ssh in again ? and do sudo -i? | 18:01 |
| holstein | how about tty? | 18:01 |
| mapps | ok 2 sec ctrl alt f1 | 18:01 |
| mapps | ok trying now | 18:01 |
| mapps | hmm its just got a blinking cursor and no login prompt | 18:02 |
| mapps | ah f3 worked | 18:02 |
| mapps | ok logged in tty as mark and did sudo -i still failed:( | 18:02 |
| holstein | with the same error? | 18:02 |
| mapps | yea sorry try again | 18:03 |
| mapps | root@dimension:/home/mark# adduser mark sudo | 18:04 |
| mapps | The user `mark' is already a member of `sudo'. | 18:04 |
| mapps | - and in sudoers it says everyone in the sudo group has all | 18:04 |
| bobobo | hello, how do i change the language on xubuntu, it is currently chinese and i need english | 18:08 |
| holstein | bobobo: what did you install? xubuntu? | 18:09 |
| bobobo | xubuntu | 18:09 |
| mapps | hm thats odd | 18:10 |
| mapps | when you install it it asks you language | 18:10 |
| mapps | holstein, any ideas?:( | 18:10 |
| bobobo | it auto changed on reboot | 18:10 |
| holstein | i have to run | 18:10 |
| elfy | bobobo: language is in settings manager | 18:11 |
| elfy | also you should be able to choose english at the login window - top right - flag icon | 18:11 |
| bobobo | what does that look like | 18:11 |
| elfy | bobobo: language is the one in settings with a flag | 18:12 |
| elfy | bobobo: if you're having trouble understanding what you're seeing, open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T and run cat /etc/default/locale | pastebinit | 18:15 |
| elfy | then we can see what you've got | 18:15 |
| bobobo | ok i see what my problem was, on login i accidentally changed the language with the scrool menu , must have changed without noticing | 18:17 |
| bobobo | thanks for the help, it is fun learning linux | 18:17 |
| elfy | welcome | 18:18 |

| danimp84 | hi!!! | 19:07 |
| delt | hello | 19:10 |
| delt | help! | 19:10 |
| delt | this bug happens sometimes, where my right alt key is "inverted" ...ie X11 thinks it's held down, unless i press it | 19:10 |
| delt | only way to fix it is to logout (restart the X server) ...is there another thing i can try? | 19:11 |
| delt | right now pressing tab switches between windows unless i hold down the right alt key.... it's fkn annoying :/ | 19:13 |
| holstein | delt: sounds like a hardware issue to me | 19:14 |
| delt | hol: yeah probably... is there a way to force X11 to reinitialize it? | 19:15 |
| holstein | it wouldnt be a bug in that case.. i mean, you can force any command you like a boot | 19:15 |
| delt | i even tried starting another X server while this one is running, doesn't fix :/ | 19:17 |
| delt | i'd like if possible to be able to fix this when it happens, without restarting X | 19:17 |
| holstein | if its a hardware issue, you wont "fix" it like that | 19:17 |
| holstein | i would determine if its hardware or not, and go from there | 19:18 |
| delt | it does fix it when i logout (restart the x server) ... so X does "something" to fix the problem right? | 19:18 |
| delt | weird thing, right-alt + tab for tab completion works in bash, but not in screen+irssi | 19:20 |
| delt | ok so anyway i closed all my stuff and restarted X, so problem fixed for now.... | 19:29 |
| delt | thanks for your help | 19:29 |
| screamconjoiner | how can I open an instance of the window manager in the current directory from the terminal? | 20:37 |

| * genii slides Arceye a shiny new Xubuntu mug, filled with coffee | 21:10 | |
| knome | genii, does that mean you're producing and selling xubuntu mugs? :P | 21:10 |
| genii | knome: Not commercially! | 21:10 |
| genii | More of a hobby, really | 21:10 |
| knome | genii, well, you can produce them if you don't make money out of them | 21:11 |
| Arceye | <--- appreciates the help from here and #ubuntu | 21:11 |
| knome | you do, really? | 21:11 |
| knome | genii, if you do, we could add them on our products page if you wish... | 21:11 |
| Arceye | There are little niggles still, and it's impossible for me to come away from windows ( I use programs which which don't have viable linux substitutes ) , but for general use it is doing fine | 21:13 |
