shahanBeldar: other than that, my laptop runs fine.00:11
Beldarshahan, Here is the google search on that, have fun. ;) https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&q=ironlake+mobile&gbv=1&sei=SY4KU4-oCYOIogSntYHwAQ00:12

nicy<Beldar>  the are some folders in root and i want to copy them in usb HOW00:22
BigTaxiThe first step is to purge ALL nvidia drivers.How do I do that?00:22
Beldarusr13, This channel does not suggest proprietary drivers unless that is the only option is my point, or they are in the additional drivers options. And if you suggest a proprietary you would mention that they in  general do not follow kernel upgrades.00:22
kikjezrousanybody got an idea of what's going on with ubuntu one?00:22
nicyHELP pleaseee00:22
Beldarusr13, You can keep the snarkiness ti yourself by the way00:23

Grzy7316so oddly enough creting a new install image using the startup disk creator and starting with nomodeset works to get me to a graphical environment :)00:45
kikjezrousmy kernel keeps randomly panicking; it seems graphically related based on the difficulty i had trying to find my drivers and the frequent graphical glitches i get moments before the kernel restarts.  additionally, xorg has always been a resource hog, but this has been the case on every machine i've built.  it's getting worse, with panics happening at least once a day. thoughts?00:45

GusI just installed Ubuntu and I have windows, I got a Failed error on the end of the ubuntu install and when i boot, it goes straight to windows 7 instead of the bootloader to let me choose, how can i fix this?03:41
BeldarGus, State the issue to the channel for help.03:41
=== jeff_ is now known as Guest65213
Gusthanks Beldar03:41
Gusis there a windows bootloader that i can select which OS to run? or is there a Linux one?03:41
BeldarGus, This a install on a partition not a wubi?03:41
Gusyes, install, now I have Windows on Drive C: and Ubuntu on drive F:03:42
BeldarGus, Hmm drive F a linux ext4 should not show in windows does it?03:43
Gusno, it does not show in windows!!03:43
BeldarGus, Can you boot the live install cd/usb so we can run a few things?03:43
Nautilusi'm setting up a CA for SSL, and wonder if I should do that as root?03:44
Gusyes, but i will be disconnected from this chat and from windows, I am on windows right now03:44
Grzy7316so now its more bizarre03:44
Gusthe only problem is that when i installed and it was going to install the grub (i believe)03:44
Grzy7316apparantly I can start a kde session as a guest. but not as myself03:44
BeldarGus, You need to be on the live to get to more info so we can help is all.03:45
Gusit made me choose where to install the bootloader and I tried all the options and none worked03:45
BeldarGus, Has this computer ever had W8 on it?03:45
Gusno03:45
Guslooks all I need Beldar is a bootloader for windows and linux03:46
BeldarGus, If a msdos which is what has been used until W8 came out, the sdX would be where grub went X is the HD letter, no partitions03:46
BeldarGus, grub the linux bootloader is that.03:47
GusI tried03:47
Guscan i download GRUB on my windows and install it?03:47
BeldarGus, well without you on the live cd/usb we are dead in the water is all.03:47
BeldarGus, no you cannot install grub from windows03:48
Gusokay, so if i boot from the live dvd, what option i select, install or try ubuntu?03:48
BeldarGus, You might just try installing again, an error and no grub menu suggests problems that may be fixable, but easier fixed with a good install.03:49
GusBeldar, I got something called Boot repair, but no sucess, is it me? or should i try again, i had to write some lines on terminal but the terminal never started on boot-repair!!03:50
BeldarGus, did you run bootrepair, if you did the bootinfo summary url is gold, post it.03:50
Gusokay thanks a lot and c-ya soon Beldar, have a good night!!03:51

pvl1i have this weird issue where unmute on my keyboard doesnt work. i know the problem is in part that i have multiple outputs for my surround sound04:18
kikjezrousget indicator-sound-switcher04:18
kikjezrousthe reason why is the sound is being pumped though something that the volume isn't controlling.04:18
kikjezrousyou could change it though the gnome control panel, but that's slow and annoying.04:19
kikjezrousthe program i just listed will do it, but it sits in the dash, so quicker access.04:19
kikjezrousopen a terminal and type in sudo apt-get install indicator-sound-switcher04:19
kikjezrousyou may have to restart unity, i'm not sure.04:19
kikjezrous*or gnome or whatever.04:20
pvl1kikjezrous: the thing is that im on lubuntu, and furthermore i only see indicator-sound04:20
kikjezrousooooh.04:20
pvl1think itll work anyway?04:20
kikjezrous*shrugs* worth a try04:21

Lord-RagnarockI guess I might just ask away .__.;; I know how to use xmodmap to make my Caps key  (keycode 66) input F13, and have set ibus to change the keyboard layout upon receiving F13 input. But it seems every time I switch the layout my xmodmap command reverts, and Caps Lock goes back to the state I set it to (inactive/doesn't light up) Does anyone have a clue to fix this? :D04:40

pvl1kikjezrous: ^04:52

leeyaallutz: i dont understand09:07
ryshaforiamroot, so how  should I go about that?09:07
foriamrootWhizkid: how much ram?09:07
ryshaWhizkid, 32bit/64bit is based on ram09:07

Whizkidi have a 64bit system.09:08
foriamrootWhizkid: ?09:08
foriamrootWhizkid: use 32 bit for compatibility with apps09:08
ryshaunnecessary then Whizkid, 64bit is only useful for taking full advantage of 4gb+ ram09:08
llutzleeyaa: "ls -l /dev/net/tun"   any output?09:08
ryshaforiamroot, okay, so - how do i replace this .so now?09:08
Whizkidi mean whats the difference??09:08
foriamrootrysha: one sec. not sure where flash installs by default09:09
ryshaWhizkid, the difference is a 64bit OS fully utilized more than 4gb of ram09:09

ikoniaparapan: why are you trying to run update-grub on ubuntu if kali-linux is the grub that is on the mbr/in control ?12:12
parapanikonia: i have the same OS on a desktop PC and during the boot seq I've checked ..on the dual OS I have ubuntu kernel 3.5.0-45 and in the desktop PC I have the 3.2.-49 ???12:13
ikoniaparapan: ok, but focus on the question I'm asking, "why are you running update-grub on the ubuntu machine, if the kali-linux grub is the one that is in control"12:14
parapanikonia: cause I've understood that I have to manually upgrade the grub after each kernel install on each OS12:14
ikoniaparapan: no, you update grub ONLY on the controlling OS12:14
ikoniaparapan: ubuntu has no grub to update12:14
ikonia(in your example)12:14
parapanikonia: K, than I have to revert to the ubuntu install and not kali - that's the one I'm using merely ....12:15
ikoniaparapan: why do you have to change anything ?12:15
ikoniaparapan: what does it matter which grub is installed12:15
parapanikonia: not quite sure ...but for the start, the kali es the first OS to boot and not ubuntu - I want to revert that12:16
ikoniathat's just boot order12:16
ikoniayou don't need to change the controlling OS for that12:16
parapanikonia: I can edit the grub.conf in kali ?12:16
parapanikonia: and what about if I un-install kali at some point ?12:17
ikoniaparapan: never edit that directly, edit the config files in /etc/grub.conf.d (I think from memory) and then update-grub12:17
ikoniaif you remove Kali-linux then your grub config will break and you'll need to put grub back on pointing at your only remaining linux OS12:17
parapank and if i do that now, reverting to ubuntu's grub I will not face this issue later ...correct ?12:18

parapanikonia: so I want to do that now - reverting to the Ubuntu's original grub, I will leran-it and I can do it when installing the third OS . . .12:22
ikoniaparapan: would you like an honest suggestion of how to do what you want to do cleanly and easy - one time only ?12:22
parapanyes I want - even it's tricky since you end up supporting me for some you don't agree with :D12:23
ikoniaparapan: as it appears to be getting you im quite  a muddle12:23
ikoniaparapan: ok - blank you harddisk - get rid of all partitions (backup any critical data first)12:24
ikoniaparapan: install windows, get it working how you like it.12:24
ikoniaparapan: then install ubuntu - get it working how you like it12:24
ikoniaparapan: then install kali-linux BUT do not install grub as part of the install12:24
ikoniaparapan: from ubuntu run "update-grub"12:24
ikoniaparapan: from that part you will have a sane system,12:24
parapanikonia: I see where you're getting - but it's not an option .....I have to work in the mean time, send e-mails, and so on .....cannot redo everything from scratch :(12:25
ikoniaparapan: what is the main OS you use for working ?12:25
ikoniaas in the one you can't live without12:25
parapanubuntu ....with virtual w712:25
=== richard_ is now known as PCWrangler
ikoniavirtual win7 ? I thought windows was a physical install when we last spoke12:26
parapanikonia: that's why I want ubuntu as primary system ...at some point I will uninstall kali - which is for testing purposes and install a freeBSD flavor ....that's the plan anyway .....12:27
in_deep_thoughtI am trying to install yasm on ubuntu but the page it tells me to get the tar file from is not available (http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/releases/yasm-1.2.0.tar.gz)12:27
ikoniaparapan: it sounds like you would really benifit from just using/installing ubuntu and putting the others in virtulization containers12:27
in_deep_thoughtthe software center yasm is version 1.1 and I need 1.212:28
parapanikonia: that's why I want to learn how to restore the grub of Ubuntu ...and then manually update the OS's which I don;t quite use ...12:28
in_deep_thoughtis there anywhere else I can get it?12:28
ikoniaparapan: grub-install (man grub-install" from ubuntu should explain the syntax12:28
parapanikonia: done that with kali ...doesn't work so well ..missing drivers for wireless lan can, and so on ....12:28
ikoniaparapan: if it's virtual there should be no wireless lan12:28
ikoniaparapan: but we can deal with that in #kali-linux if you wanted to try it properly12:29
ikoniaparapan: honeslty, I believe you are creating a problem trying to install OS's this way and swapping and changing, more so when you get to bsd boot loaders12:29
parapanikonia: so if I reinstall the grub can I do -it from installed OS correct ? doesn't have to boot from LiveCD or so ....12:30
ikoniaparapan: you have ubunt installed, you can boot into ubuntu, so the grub binary from that OS can be installed safley12:30

gartralparapan: in the future, you might consider "virtualizing" Kali or any other linux in a Linx Container under Ubuntu, google lxc for instruction12:32
parapanif I say apt-get purge grub-common .........after that apt-get install grub-pc, next : sudo update-grub, next sudo grub-install /dev/sda1 ?12:34
parapanikonia: will that restore the grub to the MBR ?12:34
llutzMBR would be /dev/sda12:34
ikoniaparapan: it will put a new copy on of the ubuntu grub binary onto the mbr, not restore, (just to vlarify) sda1 is your partition though12:35
aggerhi all, i've got a 12.04 installation and installed updates recently. After reboot, my sound stopped working. aplay  -l lists  Intel Analog/Digital and Nvidia HDMI devices. When I open PulseAudio  volume control, output devices tab, i only get the HDMI interface listed.12:35
ikoniaparapan: why are you removing grub-common ?12:35
aggerAlso, aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav as root is audible, whereas as user is not.12:35
parapanikonia: it says to purge first the install ? - not to have hooked packages ? .....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing12:36
ikonialet me have a look at that link12:36
ikoniaparapan: you're not purging or re-installing grub12:36
ikoniaparapan: why are you reading that link ?12:37
parapanikonia: cause I don;t know how to do-it12:37
parapanikonia: so I;ve rearched ho w to install re-install grub212:37
ikoniaparapan: but you don't want to remove or purge grub, so why are you looking up how to do it12:37
ikoniaparapan: you don't want to re-install grub2 - it's already installed12:37
aggermy anyone with good sound troubleshooting skills can help?12:38
ikoniaparapan: you want to apply the existing grub install from ubuntu to the mbr of the disk12:38
ikoniaparapan: you don't want to remove or purgre grub at all12:38
parapanikonia: didn't got this ....as I understood the ubuntu's grub was rewirtten by kali's so ....I've tried to re-install ...as a fresh install12:38
ikoniaparapan: no, the boot sector of the disk was overwritten by kali-linux's grub12:39
ikoniaparapan: ubuntu's grub is not touched, kali-linux cannot see/interact with the ubuntu OS12:39
parapanikonia: ok ...got it now12:39
ikoniaparapan: the binaries are still there, the masterboot record of the disk just has kali-linux's grub, not ubuntu's12:39
parapanikonia: so how do I apply ubuntu's grub to the MBR ?12:40
ikoniaparapan: so you just want to put the ubuntu grub binary back on the mbr12:40
ikoniaparapan: "grub-install" is the command as I said earlier12:40
parapanikonia: without giving the /dev/sda1 location ?12:40
ikoniaparapan: no, sda1 is partition12:40
ikoniaparapan: sda is the "disk" and therefore the mbr12:41
=== mudo_ is now known as mudo
parapanikonia: so sudo grub-install /dev/sda ?12:41
ikoniaparapan: I suggest you "man grub-install" first to check the options as I said earlier, but thats the bottom line, yes12:42

prkrHi All, I am trying to reduce the swappiness of an ubuntu server..13:04
prkrby default it is 60..13:04
aeon-ltdok13:04
prkrI have changed the /etc/sysctl.conf file to set swappiness to 1013:04
aeon-ltdok13:04
prkrand then to 013:04
prkrbut still it seems that it is not working13:05
prkrany ideas please13:05
aeon-ltdhow do you know it's not working?13:05
prkron using top.. it is still swapping the processes13:05
aeon-ltdis there no ram available?13:06
prkrRam is only 10% used... rest is free13:06
aeon-ltddid you restart after changes (though i'm not sure if that's necessary)13:06
=== andi_ is now known as murpf
prkryes ... i did13:07
parapanikonia: done the install, grub is of Ubuntu's, kali is booting also .....only a small problem, after restarting from kali, the first boot into ubuntu is in command mode - no graphical ....I make sudo reboot and the second reboot is OK ...13:08
gartralhey all, I'm having an annoying problem with flash (big surprise), I have a dual-monitor setup with mismatched monitors, and when I try to full-screen a video on my main one this happens http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-02242014-080706am.php13:08
ikoniaparapan: that seems odd, not sure what would cause that, look at the boot log and X1 log form ubuntu when it fails13:09
aggerubuntu 12.04 - updated recently, sound stopped working. However: aplay <file.wav> as root works, as user doesn't13:09
prkraeon-ltd: any idea ??13:09
gartralas you can see, it's on the main monitor, but flash thinks that monitor's resolution is the other one's,ideas for a fix?13:09
parapanikonia: Ok, anyway, the update of the OS doens/t work via apt-get ....13:09
ikoniaparapan: explain what doesn't work13:10
aeon-ltdprkr: no, but if you want to never use swap, just disable the swap partition13:10
aeon-ltdprobably not smart to though13:10

jlmarksGood morning, afternoon or evening! I am on 13.10 and attempting to uninstall a couple of programs, however ubuntu does not think they are installed. (ie: when I "apt-get remove task" it tells me "Package 'task' is not installed, so not removed", however task is still available from the command line) what can I do to remove all last traces of this program? http://paste.ubuntu.com/6986901/13:13
