| Seveas | roasted: ok, that package is broken as f* kill all the dpkg processes and purge the package | 00:28 |
| Seveas | goodwin: no, it's dead, remove from your sources | 00:28 |

| Seveas | roasted kill the dpkg processes, remove the script you pastebined and then dpkg --configure -a and dpkg -P | 00:29 |

| FuuuqUmiist | so how do you install FireFox ESR? | 00:34 |
| Seveas | roasted: the postinst is dumb, the developers of it need a serious kick in the balls. | 00:34 |
| kennethd | I am pissed off at the ubuntu installer. I had a 80gb windows partition + a 20gb debian partition. I wanted to replace debian with ubuntu. It asked me: "Do you want to replace debian with ubuntu?", I said "Yes". But it wiped out windows too! Argh! | 00:34 |
| roasted | Seveas: this is upsetting as we are moving to ubuntu on a grand scale and this being ubuntu supported is a key component. | 00:34 |
| Seveas | kennethd: ooh, that's terrible | 00:34 |
| goodwin | Seveas: apt-get update error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7013479/ | 00:35 |
| Beldar | kennethd, You would want to do that manually always. | 00:35 |
| Seveas | goodwin: ok, try a sudo apt-get clean | 00:36 |
| FuuuqUmiist | kennethd yeah the installer is confusing when you are dual booting and trying to replace an OS, same thing happen with me | 00:36 |
| kennethd | Beldar: I guess so! | 00:36 |
| Seveas | kennethd: FuuuqUmiist: did either of you file a bug? | 00:36 |
| Beldar | kennethd, bummer though, you have a backup image/clone? | 00:36 |
| goodwin | Seveas: same error | 00:36 |
| FuuuqUmiist | kenn don't save or erase anything on the computer, maybe you can recover the windows boot sector | 00:37 |
| goodwin | Seveas: do I need to rm all files under /etc/apt/source.list.d | 00:37 |
| FuuuqUmiist | kennethd* | 00:37 |
| goodwin | ? | 00:37 |
| Seveas | goodwin: that's what apt-get clean does | 00:37 |
| kennethd | Sorry for venting... thanks for the sympathy, the thing is brand new though & I think the restoration partitions are intact | 00:37 |
| Seveas | goodwin: but those errors tend to indicate something is rather wrong | 00:38 |
| FuuuqUmiist | kennethd the exact same thing actually happen to me in the past, i was able to fix the boot sector with TestDisk app, try it out | 00:38 |
| Beldar | FuuuqUmiist, I don't see that in the repos, from FF it seems. | 00:38 |
| kennethd | Seveas: I was considering filing a bug. The language was so unfortunate, it sounded like just what I wanted, I thought, wow, this installer is slick | 00:39 |
| goodwin | Seveas: This error happened about half year ago. I never managed to solve this. don't what happened. | 00:39 |
| FuuuqUmiist | kennethd when you format it doesn't actually erase anything, it just erases the index and stuff so don't write or save anything on the disk and try out testdisk | 00:39 |
| kennethd | FuuuqUmiist: I will check it out, thanks | 00:39 |
| goodwin | Seveas: it prevents me working on ubuntu, install new things | 00:40 |
| goodwin | This error happens in system notification whenever I reboot ubuntu. | 00:40 |
| FuuuqUmiist | kennethd you can probably try photorec too if you want to try to recover important photos, but when you do the files will be huge, so just open the file and screenshot it making a new image | 00:41 |
| r0mika | hi, who is a master in linux and can help me with a hard problem i'm facing pls? | 00:42 |

| FuuuqUmiist | grub is suck a pain, most of the major problems i have gotten was because of grub | 00:43 |
| FuuuqUmiist | such* | 00:43 |
| goodwin | Seveas: how to solve this? | 00:43 |
| Beldar | FuuuqUmiist, grub is fairly simple to use. | 00:44 |
| Seveas | goodwin: to be honest, I'd reinstall. precise is old enough that an update would take too long for me :) | 00:44 |
| goodwin | Seveas: I might need to reinstall ubuntu. but I am not sure how my data is preseved | 00:44 |
| usr13 | FuuuqUmiist: You fixed them. Right? | 00:44 |
| Seveas | goodwin: it's not. Make a backup of what you want to keep. | 00:44 |
| qin | FuuuqUmiist: lilo is latest trend, you gotta try it out, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_boot_loaders | 00:45 |
| Beldar | latest, that be a old loader | 00:45 |
| usr13 | goodwin: ... or, if you have /home/ on it's own partition, just leave it / re-use it. | 00:45 |
| tharkun | goodwin: as Seveas stated grab a large enough media and backup everything. Fresh install will not necesary preserve any partition whatosever | 00:45 |
| qin | Beldar: you know, retro funk. | 00:46 |

| goodwin | I never have good experience with 12.4. do I need to wait for 14.4 which is also a LTS? | 00:47 |
| usr13 | goodwin: It's up to you, but you can just upgrade when it gets here. | 00:47 |
| FuuuqUmiist | why is someone here DDoS? | 00:48 |
| usr13 | goodwin: If you install 12.04, you have a long time before EOL | 00:48 |
| Seveas | goodwin: LTS is overrated. Just install 13.10 | 00:48 |
| r0mika | ok sry, here is the issue, i had installed and setup ubuntu 13.10 with everything i need including ati catalyst drivers. i made an image of the file system so i can just copy the image to multiple machines without running the setup process on each. the problem is that on a new machine with a different video card fglrx sais that can't find the device file. i guess udev increments the card id | 00:48 |
| r0mika | from card0 to card1 because it's a new device, similar to how it treats eth. where i did the image was eth0 but on a new machine because it's new hardware it sets eth1. the question is, how can i reset this so it starts from 0, like a clean install. to reset all hardware info or i don't know. thx. | 00:48 |
| usr13 | Seveas: Well, not hitting EOL so often is part of the advantage of LTS | 00:49 |
| Beldar | qin, I wip out lilo with MS users who remove the linux and have no recovery disc to laod the mbr. | 00:50 |
| goodwin | from system notification error "This usually means that your installed package has unmet dependencies" | 00:50 |
| tharkun | r0mika: you do a fresh install on each machine, clone the packages you want to install on each and script your way out. There may be others, but then letting the install disk recognize the hw and assigne the need interface nomenclature seems to be the most stable way to proceed. | 00:50 |
| tharkun | I'd recomend salt for easy deployment and configuration of many machines | 00:50 |
| Seveas | usr13: well, with the new dumb 9 month maintenance period I see the point | 00:51 |
| goodwin | Seveas: is this any help for solution? | 00:51 |
| usr13 | goodwin: And it is 12.04 (not 12.4) and 14.04 (not 14.4). | 00:52 |
| FuuuqUmiist | yeah the 9 month maintenance period is useless, it should at least be 1 year... this basically means that most people will just be installing LTS versions | 00:52 |
| r0mika | @tharkun i manage to resolve the problem with eth so it starts from 0 just by deleting /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. isn't there a similar way for pci? all works except this thing. | 00:52 |
| usr13 | Seveas: Yea. For me, it is an added convenience. | 00:53 |
| goodwin | usr13: ok | 00:53 |
| usr13 | goodwin: And those are also dates, (in case you were un-aware). | 00:53 |
| goodwin | usr13: yea i know | 00:54 |
| tharkun | r0mika: @ works on twitter, not on irc, actually it breaks name highlighting. Back to your question try it and see. Then fix your install image accordingly and document everything. | 00:54 |
| goodwin | du -s . output KB or MB? | 00:54 |
| tharkun | FuuuqUmiist: Not necesarily. But then Centos does provide a longer lifespan and Fedora a shorter one. | 00:55 |
| usr13 | goodwin: k | 00:56 |

| ajeffco | Is there a way to run dban (Darik's Boot and Nuke) from the command line of ubuntu server? Or is there another tool that will wipe/shred/erase a drive on a running server? | 01:16 |
| Beldar | chaos7theory, In the terminal on the booted 13.10 | 01:16 |
| daftykins | ajeffco: dd. | 01:16 |

| ajeffco | swapoff? | 01:17 |
| ajeffco | yea | 01:18 |
| ajeffco | :) | 01:18 |
| Seveas | I did that once without disabling swap, when dd reached the swap partition, weird things happened :) | 01:18 |
| Karmahac_ | Hi all | 01:18 |
| usr13 | Richhh: try x or e | 01:18 |
| ajeffco | seveas: There's no swap on these disks, they were zfs pool drives | 01:18 |
| Richhh | usr13: both failed | 01:18 |
| Karmahac_ | i have problem with lshell | 01:19 |

| usr13 | Richhh: ls -l |pastebinit #Let us have a look at what you have | 01:21 |
| Richhh | ok i will just censor the filenames by renaming | 01:21 |
| allyai | beldar: any ideas? | 01:21 |
| usr13 | Richhh: Never mind.... | 01:21 |
| ajeffco | daftykins: I assume that when the prompt returns it's complete? | 01:21 |
| Richhh | ? | 01:21 |
| daftykins | ajeffco: yes, also if you "kill -USR1 $PID_of_dd" it will report the status, so you can gauge time remaining sorta | 01:22 |
| usr13 | Richhh: We don't know what is wrong with the file you have. (You'll have to ask who ever sent it.) | 01:22 |
| ajeffco | daftykins: Nice... Thank you | 01:22 |
| Beldar | allyai, Not really. | 01:22 |
| daftykins | ajeffco: however of course, you will be able to see how a disk slows down from start to end due to the track diameter :) | 01:22 |

| elementaryosusbd | yes | 01:24 |
| rww | elementaryosusbd: /join #elementary, ask them | 01:24 |
| elementaryosusbd | i never get an answer | 01:24 |
| ajeffco | daftykins: That kill -usr1 returned nothing. But I can see them working the disks in nmon. It does a number on CPU's also | 01:24 |
| Richhh | oh blast | 01:24 |
| rww | That's unfortunate, and something you should bear in mind when choosing your next distro. | 01:24 |
| rww | #ubuntu does not provide derivatives support. | 01:25 |
| Richhh | i think i was in the wrong folder and trying to unrar the zipped rar | 01:25 |
| Richhh | sorry | 01:25 |
| daftykins | ajeffco: hrmm, it should interrupt the dd's and print a status message, then resume | 01:25 |
| Richhh | well, no i wasn't | 01:25 |
| daftykins | ajeffco: silly question, you did insert the running process ID of the dd instances, not type it exactly as i did? :) | 01:25 |
| elementaryosusbd | ik, but i dont think it matters what distro | 01:26 |
| ajeffco | daftykins: It did, I didn't notice it was on the window that's running the dd until you said it interrupts the process | 01:26 |
| ajeffco | yea, I did ;) | 01:26 |
| rww | elementaryosusbd: in here, it does | 01:26 |
| elementaryosusbd | i get permission denied | 01:26 |

| elementaryosusbd | usr13: its just a simple amazon sd card | 01:30 |
| usr13 | sardior: "this fix"? | 01:30 |
| usr13 | kingplusplus: You mean *audio*? | 01:31 |
| usr13 | elementaryosusbd: Is it mounted rw or ro? | 01:31 |
| usr13 | elementaryosusbd: mount | 01:31 |
| elementaryosusbd | where would i see that | 01:31 |
| sardior | usr13: I was in here earlier trying to find the solution to my display problem. | 01:31 |
| NiKeCRu666 | hello, I have a problem, I installed ubuntu and updated it, well as soon as I started to use firefox or chrome all my downloads suddenly stops and says network error, what should I do? | 01:31 |
| usr13 | elementaryosusbd: Does it have a switch on the side? | 01:31 |
| elementaryosusbd | physically? | 01:32 |
| usr13 | sardior: Define "this fix". | 01:32 |
| === kloeri_ is now known as kloeri | ||
| kingplusplus | usr13, yes audio** its just skype having problems | 01:32 |
| usr13 | elementaryosusbd: Yes, physically. | 01:32 |
| elementaryosusbd | nope nothing | 01:32 |
| elementaryosusbd | WAIT | 01:32 |
| elementaryosusbd | i just found a switch | 01:33 |
| usr13 | kingplusplus: Is it an autio input or output problem? | 01:33 |
| elementaryosusbd | an arrow pointing down says locked | 01:33 |
| elementaryosusbd | it was on the unlocked setting | 01:33 |
| usr13 | elementaryosusbd: Try the other way. | 01:33 |
| sardior | usr13: i am not sure what you are asking. | 01:33 |
| vicente | hola, | 01:34 |
| usr13 | sardior: Oh, I only had to scroll up and see. Sorry/ | 01:34 |
| Beldar | NiKeCRu666, Are you using wifi and lost the signal? | 01:35 |
| sardior | usr13: ok. | 01:35 |
| sardior | np | 01:35 |
| NiKeCRu666 | Beldar, well I use wifi and yes sometimes I lost conection | 01:35 |
| Beldar | NiKeCRu666, So, might this be the issue? | 01:36 |
| NiKeCRu666 | Beldar, but I do not lose conection when I'm downloading | 01:36 |
| kingplusplus | usr13, output problem makes some random noise | 01:36 |
| usr13 | kingplusplus: Only happens with skype? | 01:37 |
| NiKeCRu666 | Beldar, couldn't it be the driver? | 01:37 |
| Beldar | kingplusplus, Hmm, what through magic, downloading has no control on this. | 01:37 |
| kingplusplus | d | 01:37 |
| Beldar | NiKeCRu666, what driver, if working not like;y to just fail during use. | 01:39 |
| Beldar | NiKeCRu666, What kind of download and can you just restart it? | 01:39 |
| === elementaryosusbd is now known as EOSuser1 | ||
| NiKeCRu666 | Beldar, yes, i can restart it, but still download crashes, files bigger than 5MB I think, cuz I downloaded a PDF about 400Kb and there was no problem, but google talk plugin (deb package) I couldn't | 01:41 |
| EOSuser1 | usr13, is there somewhere else besides #elementary i could ask | 01:42 |
| kingplusplus | usr13Beldar yes only with skype, am using Xubuntu and trying to install it i followed some tutorials because it wouldn't install using the deb files so i decided to do it using some online tutorial | 01:43 |
| Beldar | NiKeCRu666, Can you plug in the ethernet and use it as a compare? | 01:43 |
| NiKeCRu666 | I can't now, but is it usefull if I tell you that there is no problem when I download from windows7? I have both installed in different partitions | 01:44 |
| Beldar | kingplusplus, I mistakenly used your nick when posting to another. | 01:45 |
| EOSuser1 | Beldar, do you know how to fix a permission issue with gnome-disk-utility | 01:46 |
| Beldar | NiKeCRu666, Not really, if you do loose signal at times (and ubuntu is weaker reading this) I would ghuess that is what is happening. | 01:46 |
| Beldar | EOSuser1, randomly just asking users is frowned upon. | 01:47 |
| cypher-neo | kingplusplus, The sound problem with Skype is well-known, and affects lots of distros. | 01:47 |
| kingplusplus | cypher-neo, ok... i will hv to cope with :) | 01:47 |
| EOSuser1 | Beldar, im sorry i just feel like this should be an easy fix | 01:47 |
| cypher-neo | kingplusplus, The problem is Microsoft updated Skype and they borked it. There is a fix that works somewhat... but | 01:47 |
| Beldar | EOSuser1,State your issues to the channel for help. ;) | 01:47 |
| cypher-neo | kingplusplus, It won't take care of all the sound issue, just most of it. | 01:48 |
| Beldar | kingplusplus, Use the skype in the repos. | 01:48 |
| cypher-neo | Beldar, That version in the repos is one of the affected versions. | 01:48 |
| NiKeCRu666 | Beldar, then should I compare just with ethernet? | 01:49 |
| Beldar | NiKeCRu666, That is where I would start, but I have ethernet access at my fingertips, just a suggestion. | 01:50 |
| Beldar | cypher-neo, supposedly, are we sure there is no user error here? | 01:50 |
| cypher-neo | kingplusplus, Check out this article here. This fix worked on my computer... it took care of about 75% of the random sound. http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-fix-the-sound-issues-between-skype2.0-and-pulseaudio-on-fedora9 | 01:50 |
| cypher-neo | Beldar, Pretty sure. It sounds like the last thousand Skype issues I've fixed. | 01:52 |
| undeaddragon | I need help | 01:53 |
| cypher-neo | kingplusplus, Also another fix here: http://arunraghavan.net/2013/08/pulseaudio-4-0-and-skype/ | 01:55 |
| undeaddragon | My PC is too old to run the 3D Unity desktop. But Ubuntu removed Unity 2D from Ubuntu versions past 12.04. I want to keep using Ubuntu, and keep upgrading, but this is stopping me. | 01:55 |
| kingplusplus | cypher-neo, sorry am new how do i enter gnome system menu in Xubuntu | 01:56 |
| kingplusplus | let me check the new one | 01:56 |
| JamesNZ | I'm running Ubuntu in a VM with virt-manager (Fedora host). The problem is, any time I switch to a console (i.e. with ctrl + alt + f2) Ubuntu freezes. Anyone know why this would happen? It's a new install of 13.10. | 01:57 |
| JamesNZ | I've updated it and everything. | 01:57 |
| cypher-neo | undeaddragon, You have 3 options. 1) Get a new computer. 2) Switch to a different distro with a desktop that composites differently. 3) Switch to a different desktop on Ubuntu that composites differently. | 01:59 |
| kingplusplus | cypher-neo, thanks its looks like the problem is gone | 01:59 |
| JamesNZ | In fact it won't even shutdown properly, it freezes after closing xorg (I think). | 01:59 |
| FuuuqUmiist | undeaddragon try Lubuntu it will make your computer super fast | 01:59 |
| cypher-neo | kingplusplus, Glad i could help! | 01:59 |
| undeaddragon | FuuuqUmiist: Okay | 02:00 |
| FuuuqUmiist | Lubuntu is Ubuntu without using the Unity interface | 02:00 |
| undeaddragon | Okay | 02:00 |
| FuuuqUmiist | just add the cool apps that you like | 02:01 |
| Bashing-om | undeaddragon: check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu ; made to perform on older hardware. | 02:01 |
| _gypsy_ | we are in the matric | 02:02 |
| cypher-neo | undeaddragon, You could also check out Linux Mint Cinnamon Edition. It uses a different compositing manager that is lighter on resources than Unity. | 02:02 |
| undeaddragon | Okay | 02:02 |
| FuuuqUmiist | Linux Mint Cinnamon uses a lot of resources too, maybe try Linux Mint XFCE version if you want | 02:03 |
| cypher-neo | XFCE is very lightweight | 02:03 |
| cypher-neo | :) | 02:03 |
| undeaddragon | Okay | 02:05 |
| undeaddragon | Is there a way to install Lubuntu without all the junk like abiword? | 02:05 |
| undeaddragon | I like using nano | 02:05 |
| undeaddragon | Or vim | 02:05 |
| FuuuqUmiist | undeaddragon just uninstall it after, or maybe you can try the minimum install or something | 02:06 |
| NiKeCRu666 | Thank you for your help beldar, I'll try with ethernet conection. =) | 02:09 |
| NV_ | undeaddragon: Did you try minimalinstall? | 02:10 |
| undeaddragon | I can't find the link | 02:12 |

| stevecam | hey, ive copy my disk contents bit by bit onto another hard drive that's identical in size but when i try to boot i get error: magic number | 02:15 |
| stevecam | why is this happening | 02:15 |
| wisguy556 | hello | 02:17 |
| NV_ | what's the scenario stevecam? | 02:17 |
| NV_ | same server, HD replace? | 02:17 |
| NV_ | or new server, based on HD copy of other server? | 02:17 |
| wisguy556 | would anyone be willing to give me a little advice or help on understanding a bootable usb with Ubuntu OS? | 02:17 |
| NV_ | sure wisguy556 | 02:17 |
| stevecam | NV_, it's a laptop, the old drive was failing so i purchased a new one, copied contents over to the new one and the new one wont boot ubuntu | 02:19 |
| wisguy556 | Ok, thank you. I have a DELL laptop with Windows 7, it won't start, it gives me a black screen with a blinking cursor.... so I figure virus? and create a bootable usb with another computer, hoping that I could virus scan the laptop and get the original windows 7 OS to run | 02:19 |
| wisguy556 | is this the right idea? | 02:19 |
| Beldar | stevecam, How did you copy, and was the mbr included? | 02:19 |
| stevecam | error: invalid magic number error: you need to load the kernel first Press any key to continue..... | 02:19 |
| stevecam | i copied by putting the old disk and new disk in a computer and copied /dev/sdc to /dev/sdd according to the drives block names on my computer | 02:20 |
| Beldar | wisguy556, This black screen with cursor the ubuntu usb boot? | 02:21 |
| stevecam | with dd if that makes any difference | 02:21 |
| stevecam | im downloading a copy of boot repair but im just trying to understand the logic behind why it wont work | 02:21 |
| NV_ | wisguy556: If the issue is on a windows 7 OS itself I would first exhaust all options on win 7 itself to get it back up and running | 02:22 |
| wisguy556 | no sorry, the black screen is when I tried to start the laptop with just the windows 7 OS that is on the laptop. I can get the Ubuntu to load and run with the USB, BUT I can't figure out how to get a virus program on the ubuntu usb... | 02:22 |
| Beldar | stevecam, try this app, and save the bootinfo summary url. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 02:22 |
| cypher-neo | Hey Beldar. I was able to help that user with his Skype problem. It wasn't user error. | 02:22 |
| Beldar | cypher-neo, Cool gppd job. | 02:22 |
| Beldar | good* | 02:22 |
| lucy99 | hi | 02:22 |
| lucy99 | new here | 02:22 |
| stevecam | Beldar, im downloading it now, also having trouble working out why the boot disk is so big, but thats irrelevant | 02:23 |
| wisguy556 | I cannot get Windows 7 to start at all. the computer turns on and then the black screen comes up, no options for input (it looks like an old DOS cursor) | 02:23 |
| Beldar | wisguy556, You need another usb to load. | 02:23 |
| Beldar | or disc | 02:23 |
| wisguy556 | Beldar, so do I download virus software and create a "rescue disc" with the virus software? | 02:24 |
| Beldar | wisguy556, There are av that are bootable iso's | 02:24 |
| NV_ | Hmm, but why so sure it would be a virus? | 02:24 |
| wisguy556 | ok, any recommendations? | 02:24 |
| Beldar | wisguy556, here are a few. http://www.thewindowsclub.com/bootable-antivirus-rescue-cd-windows-free-download | 02:25 |
| wisguy556 | NV, that is what I have found when searching google.... and when I am running the Ubuntu I can access the HDD and see all of the files that were on the laptop last time I used it | 02:25 |
| wisguy556 | Thank you Beldar | 02:25 |
| Beldar | wisguy556, No prob.you might check on the ##windows channel with the symptoms.....etc and see if it may be a hardware or software issue. | 02:26 |
| wisguy556 | ok, thanks again. I am trying Kasperkey right now, if its free, what does it hurt :) | 02:28 |

| monkwitdafunk | i think windows has its own sysrec | 02:35 |
| Sn0w | Hello | 02:35 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, You need a recovery partition, or an image. | 02:35 |
| lucy99 | is this the right channel to ask that? | 02:35 |
| monkwitdafunk | off topic | 02:35 |
| pvp101sing | Beldar how can I get a recorery partition or an image | 02:36 |
| Sn0w | Can anyone help me with a chromebook/bitcoin problem on 12.04 | 02:36 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, the recovery would be on the hard drive, and image you would have made. | 02:36 |
| Sn0w | Can anyone help me with a chromebook/bitcoin problem on 12.04 | 02:37 |
| pvp101sing | can I just install windows on a image iso to my partion hard drive how would I do that | 02:37 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, I doubt you will get to your goals, you don;t have the right tools, and this is not a windows channel ##windows is | 02:37 |
| stevecam | pvp101sing, is there a key that you can press when you start up your computer that says recovery mode, usualyl says it when you start up | 02:37 |
| hawa | which is irc for ubuntu server??? | 02:37 |
| Sn0w | Can anyone help me with a chromebook/bitcoin problem on 12.04 | 02:38 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, If you have an iso of windows you can boot it with grub 2 | 02:38 |
| Beldar | hawa, #ubuntu-server | 02:38 |
| hawa | can anybody tell me how to find the original mac address of cloned mac??? | 02:40 |
| stevecam | pvp101sing, it's technically possible but you will have the issue of not knowing what you are doing, which is how you got to this point in the first place, you could possibly install windows on to a virtual machine | 02:40 |
| fobelx | i try to install a package on ubuntu 12.04.4 and i get an error. | 02:41 |
| fobelx | i ran apt-get update first. then apt-get install libboost-dev | 02:42 |
| stevecam | Beldar, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7013896/ | 02:42 |
| pvp101sing | stevecam: can I install grub 2 to install windows 8 on it can you show me a site or a vedio how to do it because am lost and I cant get back were I started | 02:42 |
| Beldar | stevecam, looks good, I would try supergrub 2 to boot ubuntu to see if it is going to boot. http://www.supergrubdisk.org/super-grub2-disk/ | 02:44 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, Do you have a W8 install iso? | 02:44 |
| pvp101sing | Beldar: Yes | 02:45 |
| stevecam | Beldar, im reinstalling grub2, im just trying to work out why this happened in the first place if im making an exact copy of the hard drive | 02:45 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, there is a #grub channel as well for help. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot | 02:46 |
| Beldar | stevecam, Hard to say I would have used clonezilla myself. | 02:46 |
| pvp101sing | Beldar: I will give you permission to go into my computer and do it for me will you help me | 02:47 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, Come on by. | 02:47 |
| Beldar | I don;t remote | 02:47 |
| pvp101sing | Beldar: I thought I would try thanks anyways:( | 02:48 |
| hawa | how do i find original mac of cloned mac in my network | 02:49 |
| stevecam | pvp101sing, technically you can copy a windows install onto a spare area of your hard disk, but ive never done it before and if you dont know what you are doing you can put yourself in a bigger mess then you were before. have you considered virtualizing until you have a suitable usb or cd to burn | 02:50 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, see post 3 I know this user and they are a grub guru. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2182397 | 02:50 |
| stevecam | Beldar, why clonezilla? | 02:51 |
| Beldar | stevecam, Just a great cloner and saves the mbr, never had a fail. | 02:51 |
| Beldar | my own bias basically | 02:52 |
| Beldar | pvp101sing, YOu can't get your dad to buy a usb for your school needs? | 02:52 |
| stevecam | maybe im getting behind in times, how old are you if you dont mind me asking? | 02:52 |
| Beldar | stevecam, me? | 02:53 |
| stevecam | pvp101sing, school or gaming needs? | 02:53 |
| stevecam | Beldar, yes | 02:53 |
| Beldar | stevecam, 49 | 02:53 |
| stevecam | im only 26, that still doesnt help me | 02:54 |
| hippyman | brassario does not recognize blank disk, how to fix this? | 02:54 |

| stevecam | Beldar, im just going to conclude that it was bad sectors on my old disk, can not wrap my head around this | 03:40 |
| Beldar | godd, Hmm, you have a lot going there which includes 3rd party/ppa apps both of which technically not supported, I can't really help, unity is a plugin in ccsm and there are controls for this there. Mixing these apps seems to be the crux of the issue. | 03:41 |
| Beldar | stevecam, I wondered that my self. | 03:41 |
| stevecam | just seemed a little odd because my system was at least booting on my previous disk, but bad sectors never really end up making sense | 03:42 |
| godd | Beldar: thank you, i believe you're right, but i can't seem to find the controls in compiz settings manager... | 03:42 |
| Beldar | godd, I forget where that would be in ccsm I have not used unity for awhile is all. | 03:43 |

| Beldar | stevecam, Heh, that is a a lot of bad sectors. | 03:47 |
| stevecam | Beldar, but disk is OK | 03:48 |
| === kimgonill is now known as wallyp | ||
| Beldar | stevecam, yeah, not really an area I can definitively address. | 03:49 |

| stevecam | which is why i bought another one, can not draw the conclusion why it thinks bad sectors are ok | 03:50 |

| sebastian | I think my laptop is bugged | 03:52 |
| sebastian | I am an ubuntu newb | 03:52 |
| Beldar | stevecam, Just wondering how you are getting that info, if you open disks top right corner there is a dropdown that has a smart check | 03:53 |
| sebastian | I want to know how to verify whether this is the case and take the necessary measures to prevent this | 03:53 |
| Beldar | sebastian, bugged? | 03:53 |
| Serano | sebastian: what seems to be the problem with your laptop? | 03:54 |
| sebastian | tapped, keyloggers, etc | 03:54 |
| sebastian | I want to find out how to verify whether there is a keylogger on my laptop or anything that records my activities | 03:54 |
| stevecam | Beldar, i got if from my smart data its your wording that confused me, "smart check onboard disk" | 03:54 |
| Beldar | sebastian, What makes you think it is, not an easy thing to install? | 03:54 |
| stevecam | smart is only located on disks afaik | 03:55 |
| Serano | sebastian: you could always install a rootkit hunter. But like Beldar said it is very unlikely. | 03:55 |
| Serano | sebastian: http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/ | 03:55 |
| stevecam | afaik, unless im not catching up with new ideas, smart information off the disk wouldnt make sense to me lol | 03:55 |
| Beldar | stevecam, ah onboard meant installed. | 03:55 |
| sebastian | ok, I am willing to learn and install it | 03:56 |
| sebastian | can I get it from synaptic? | 03:56 |
| Beldar | sebastian, rkhunter is really for people who know how to muse it, it will only show changes from the install, many legitimate. | 03:56 |

| snufft_ | Hey guys. I have a laptop hdd that is failing. it has 2 partitions on it and one of them is Windows 7. I've bought a new hard drive that I'd like to copy JUST the partition with Win7, on to, but the old win 7 partition is 116gb and the new hdd is 256gb. Can I copy all the data somehow (what application does anyone recommend?) without being stuck with a 116gb partition again? | 03:57 |
| stevecam | Beldar, i may be 26, but ive been usisng computers for 21 years so things are getting new very quicly for me | 03:58 |
| Beldar | snufft_, That is a ##windows question really. | 03:58 |
| snufft_ | Beldar, i'd be cloning it on Ubuntu. the drive has to be out of the machine to clone | 03:58 |
| Beldar | stevecam, Heh that is about 3 times longer than I. | 03:58 |
| sebastian | Beldar, if there was a built in assembly language keylogger on my computer would I be able to detect it on ubuntu? | 03:58 |
| Beldar | snufft_ Really cloning it with what, isn't that your inquiry? | 03:58 |
| sebastian | should I encrypt my homefolder? | 03:59 |
| Beldar | sebastian, If you really think this has happened your bets response is a new install. | 03:59 |
| snufft_ | Beldar, pretty much. What Linux/Ubuntu app can I use that will let me clone the drive, without partitioning the new drive to 116gb again | 03:59 |
| stevecam | Beldar, somebody tried telling me about privacy the other day, afaik privacy became obsolete back in 1980 | 04:00 |
| Beldar | snufft_, I use clonezilla often, you cab resize partitions. | 04:00 |
| Beldar | can* | 04:00 |

| Serano | And privacy is not obsolute. The only thing is that generations that grew up without privacy don't grasp the concept of it. And agreed full privacy is an illusion, always has been. But with the technologies advancing. Privacy is now not for the masses but for the few elite. | 04:03 |

| sebastian | My question is the following, if I finish downloading the torrents onto my external hard drive, if i make the iso into my flash drive and do a clean reinstall should I install without a connection to the internet? should i choose the option to encrypt my home folder, should I choose a very intricate password to log in and how should i proceed after doing that? | 04:05 |

| allyai | not yet, was doing other stuff. gonna try it now | 04:10 |
| sebastian | I wonder if I break down into paragraphs here, 1) finish downloading torrents, back up files, 2)reinstall ubuntu | 04:13 |
| sebastian | choose encrypt home folder option? | 04:13 |
| sebastian | choose a very long 256 character password? | 04:13 |
| catopett | I am following the: http://www.howtogeek.com/109736/how-to-create-a-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-or-usb and cannot continue as UCK asks for iso-file, is it possible that the xubuntu dvd does not function here? | 04:13 |
| sebastian | install offline? | 04:13 |
| catopett | It is a live dvd | 04:14 |
| Serano | sebastian: preferably with inet imo. This way you make sure that packages are on the most up to date version on installation. | 04:16 |
| Picos | hi all | 04:17 |
| sebastian | inet=? internet connection? | 04:17 |
| Serano | sebastian: home encryption is nice. But I would encrypt my homefolder with a short pass and use a TrueCrypt container inside that with Whirl. | 04:17 |
| sebastian | so click on download latest packages while installing | 04:18 |
| Serano | sebastian: obviously yes | 04:18 |
| Serano | sebastian: yes | 04:18 |
| sebastian | ¨use a Truecrypt container inside that with Whirl¨ is that something I check during installation or do I sudo-apt get something as quickly as I installed? | 04:19 |
| Serano | no that is after install. If you feel there is a need to hide something on the home folder and that it is very imperative that it stays private, I would recommend encryppting the homefolder and afterwards use a specialised solution for encrypting your files. My advice was TrueCrypt with Whirl | 04:20 |
| sebastian | ok so that means i go on the terminal and then write sudo apt get Whirl? | 04:21 |
| davidrsmorris | Exactly what is a lens? What is the transparent thing that it loads into? | 04:21 |
| Serano | sebastian no that means you need to google truecrypt and follow the installation instructions. | 04:21 |
| === VoidWhisperer_ is now known as VoidWhisperer | ||

| === VoidWhisperer is now known as Guest73835 | ||
| sebastian | I google truecrypt, there should be some isntruction with a repository to enter into the sources file and then sudo apt get | 04:23 |
| sebastian | brb | 04:23 |
| Serano | This way you can control the traffic flow from and to your machine and eliminate the chance a keylogger is able to send anything. | 04:23 |

| lotuspsychje | morning to all | 04:24 |
| sebastian | is tor available on ubuntu? synaptic says that it is but i cannot seem to find it by typing tor on dash, i will need to use tor to look for true crypt installation when I reinstall | 04:24 |
| lotuspsychje | !tor | sebastian | 04:25 |
| ubottu | sebastian: Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 04:25 |
| sebastian | ok thank you | 04:26 |
| Serano | sebastian: you need to learn how to google a program. Look for install information and use that. This can either be you have to build the package and install it manually and sometimes there is a package available in the repo. | 04:26 |
| lotuspsychje | !info vidalia | sebastian | 04:26 |
| ubottu | sebastian: vidalia (source: vidalia): controller GUI for Tor. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.2.21-1 (saucy), package size 2992 kB, installed size 6015 kB | 04:26 |
| sebastian | so, finish downloading torrents, back up in external flash hard drive, do clean reinstall, download updates while installing, encrypt home folder, download tor, look for truecrypt installation | 04:26 |
| Serano | Now for working with the 'integrated installer'. Sudo apt-get install <packagename> and to try and find a package: sudo apt-cache search <packagename> | 04:27 |
| Serano | the latter will give you the right package name to use with the first command. | 04:27 |
| sebastian | aha! so vidalia is why tor is probably not working | 04:27 |
| Serano | in short: the basics =-) | 04:27 |
| sebastian | ok final question and i know this is off topic, is there a way to attain privacy on facebook, yahoo mail, youtube, via a program? | 04:30 |
| Tello | hello | 04:30 |
| Tello | i need help in installing ubuntu | 04:30 |
| Serano | sebastian: in some degree but if the information you supply to facebook is your personal information it will mean that all your connecting measures would be rendered useless. | 04:31 |
| Serano | so for anonimity: tor is nice, for encryption use a vpn to encrypt everything passed your ISP. | 04:31 |
| Tello | hello | 04:32 |
| Serano | so my way of enabling that would be your pc > ISP > VPN > Server > Tor Network > Facebook | 04:32 |
| sebastian | back up, reinstall>update while installing>encrypthomefolder>download tor>download true crypt...find a vpn, what is a vpn? do i have to pay for truecrypt or the vpn or is it free on ubuntu? | 04:33 |
| Serano | sebastian: I feel you have set a goal but you still need to do a lot of research :) Don't expect to be given all the answers, but dare to adventure yourself. Do everything step by step. Ask if you get stuck. But first of all research. I've given you lots of information. Even on subjects you clearly have no idea about what they do. | 04:35 |
| sebastian | ok | 04:36 |
| Serano | My advice would be to read up on Security Practices, What is a VPN, How does Tor work, What is encryption How does it work. | 04:36 |
| sebastian | I heard rumors that certain laptops were being shipped bugged | 04:36 |
| sebastian | from leaks on the net | 04:36 |
| sebastian | if this were the case would i be able to detect it from ubuntu? | 04:36 |
| Serano | Not particularly. Most laptops are being shipped with windows, which is an open door anyway. Good practices will protect you in Linux. | 04:37 |

| FuuuqUmiist | is it true that Ubuntu 32bit edition can support more than 4GB of ram? | 04:38 |

| Serano | FuuuqUmiist: 32bit has a limitation of 4GB. It's a mathematical limitation | 04:39 |
| FuuuqUmiist | Serano how about the Ubuntu 32bit PAE version | 04:39 |
| sebastian | how the heck can Richard Stallman live! | 04:39 |
| Serano | FuuuqUmiist: I have no experience with PAE. | 04:40 |
| Serano | FuuuqUmiist: Reading up a bit fast: A PAE-enabled Linux kernel requires that the CPU also support PAE | 04:41 |

| Beldar | sebastian, skype is proprietary, there are other apps to do this with however. | 04:46 |

| sebastian | so as long as i dont install the ubuntu extras everything is open source and non proprietary including drivers? | 04:53 |
| Beldar | sebastian, With fedora you have to add repos to get anything proprietary the main repos do not have any. | 04:53 |
| sebastian | like video camera, microphone, etc | 04:53 |
| FuuuqUmiist | sebastian Trisquel takes away all the propriety stuff in linux, and Debian is more restricted on propriety too | 04:54 |

| Beldar | davidrsmorris, Kind of a probably not doable option those are attached to unity, I suppose it depends on your definition of " minimalist environment". | 05:14 |
| davidrsmorris | Beldar, I figured I could re-implement the dbus api in Lua under Awesome... | 05:14 |

| kutulal | Hello everyone! | 05:35 |
| kutulal | I am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS with lxde | 05:36 |
| kutulal | I want to run a terminal command after login. | 05:36 |
| kutulal | the command should run automatically every time I login | 05:37 |
| Beldar | !enter | kutulal | 05:37 |
| ubottu | kutulal: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 05:37 |
| kutulal | !enter | kutulal | 05:38 |
| ubottu | kutulal, please see my private message | 05:38 |
| Serano | kutulal: what you want to do is make a little script with the commands in that need to be executed. You could then add that script to crontab that will run it on boot. More info on how to use crontab: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-execute-cron-job-after-system-reboot/ | 05:38 |
| usr13 | kutulal: You need to create a properly configured .desktop file and place it in ~/.config/autostart | 05:39 |

| usr13 | kutulal: If there is a username and password to be entered, you'll have to create a script for it. | 05:43 |

| roasted | Question - what *exactly* is needed on 13.10 to install 32 bit applications? Just ia32-libs-multiarch? Reason I ask is I have an application (Mimio Studio) which is labeled an i386 application but their site says it supports 32 and 64. On a 13.10 32 bit VM, works fine. On a 13.10 64 bit install, no such luck. Lots of errors when installing via terminal. Thing is, I have ia32-libs-multiarch installed. Makes me wonder if there's | 05:48 |
| roasted | something else I need. | 05:48 |
| Serano | roasted: couldn't you just download the 64bit version of the program? | 05:49 |
| kutulal | usr13:username & password field is saved in the programs .conf file. So I only need to execute command:``./crclient -u username'' in my home directory | 05:49 |
| roasted | Serano: there is only one file under linux for this program | 05:49 |
| roasted | Serano: I'll double check though. maybe it's hidden somewhere. | 05:49 |
| kutulal | usr13: username & password field is saved in the programs .conf file. So I only need to execute command:``./crclient -u username'' in my home directory | 05:50 |
| roasted | Serano: yeah just one | 05:50 |
| Serano | roasted: if there isn't, I think you need to install ia32-libs | 05:50 |
| Serano | and as far as I would expect it would work | 05:50 |
| roasted | Serano: they're not in the 13.10 repos as far as I can tell | 05:51 |
| Serano | I'm still on precise so I wouldn't know | 05:52 |
| catopett | warning: /home/catopett/tmp/remaster-root-mount seems to be mounted read-only. is this right? | 05:52 |
| Serano | have you tried a dpkg --force-all | 05:52 |
| kutulal | anyone please help :( | 05:52 |
| happyfr0gg | kutulal - what is exactly you are trying to do? | 05:53 |
| kutulal | I want to run a terminal command after login.the command should run automatically every time I login.the executable is crclient which is placed in my home folder. I use it to login to my web host. In terminal I type``./crclient -u username'' where `username' is my login name.But I'm not getting how to do this automatically | 05:54 |
| happyfr0gg | kutulal - I may be of help. | 05:54 |
| Serano | kutulal: do ./crclient -u username > run.sh | 05:55 |
| Serano | and via crontab let run.sh be ran everytime. or just add the command in crontab | 05:55 |
| Serano | on login | 05:56 |
| Serano | although I might be wrong. | 05:57 |
| Serano | kutulal: is it on a desktop? | 05:59 |
| Serano | if so http://xmodulo.com/2013/01/how-to-automatically-run-script-when-logging-into-ubuntu-desktop.html | 05:59 |
| Serano | well make script.sh and chmod +x it. Inside put ./crclient -u username | 06:01 |
| Serano | and add it to the the startup applications | 06:01 |
| klloveall | Hey everyone, so I moved my file server to a new case and now the SSD partitions are not being read. The device shows up in BIOS, and I booted from a flash drive and the drive shows up in disk utility but shows that it's unformatted. Any suggestions? | 06:02 |
| Serano | klloveall: It sounds like they are recognized but not formatted or partionned. Boot with the flash and use gpart to format and partition the ssd | 06:04 |
| lewislipsz | going to build an ubuntu media server for my home | 06:05 |
| lewislipsz | is this the right place? | 06:06 |
| klloveall | Serano: I agree, but I know it is partitioned and formatted because it was working before I moved cases (the only thing I changed was cases. I added in another HDD but haven't hooked it up yet) | 06:06 |
| cfhowlett | lewislipsz, or in #ubuntu-server but start here | 06:07 |
| lewislipsz | i want to avoid any issues with the hardware I buy | 06:08 |

| lewislipsz | arright, thanks | 06:08 |
| lewislipsz | I've seen some of that | 06:08 |
| Serano | klloveall: Oh bizar. The weren't by any chance in RAID or encrypted with truecrypt? | 06:09 |
| lewislipsz | I've had spotty success with each veresion of ubuntu on my current hardware - seems to have gotten worse over time | 06:09 |
| cfhowlett | lewislipsz, I'd suggest going with LTS for the long term support benefits | 06:10 |
| abtest | r | 06:10 |
| lotuspsychje | klloveall: what ss brand you have? | 06:10 |
| lotuspsychje | dds | 06:10 |
| lotuspsychje | ssd | 06:10 |
| lewislipsz | I just don't want any issues - I spent weekends trying to get my geforce 250 to play nice with no success | 06:10 |
| lewislipsz | if I'm just sharing files, no transcoding or xbmc or plex or anything, I should be fine with onboard video, I assume? | 06:11 |
| klloveall | Not to my knowledge. The rest of the HDD's are, but the OS is on the SSD by itself. And it's an OCZ I think | 06:11 |
| Serano | Well with a RPi lewislipsz you can get a mediacenter for $50 bucks :) | 06:11 |
| lewislipsz | idk RPi | 06:11 |
| Prufrock | Hello all | 06:11 |
| === root_ is now known as Guest21901 | ||
| lewislipsz | i just want many TB of storage in some sort of RAID array to expose my .mkvs to the network | 06:12 |
| lewislipsz | to windows machines, wdtv, whatever else I get | 06:12 |
| lewislipsz | i don't want to spend more than a few hundred bucks besides the HDDs | 06:13 |
| Serano | sounds like you need a NAS. :) If you want specialised software OS for that, take a look at FreeNAS | 06:13 |
| lewislipsz | yeah, I've thought about NAS's | 06:13 |
| lewislipsz | is that a better option? | 06:13 |
| Prufrock | I have a Toshiba A6, AMD 64 laptop with Windows 8 pre-installed, I am trying to boot Ubuntu on it in legacy mode. It seems to boot, but it won't start the gui for some reason. What can I do? | 06:13 |
| lewislipsz | seems like they all come with sketchy reviews or functional caveats | 06:13 |
| lewislipsz | unless I drop $600 on a drobo or something | 06:13 |
| Serano | It is. You can go for premade NAS systems, or build a small pc with the FreeNAS OS on it and do the same. | 06:14 |
| lewislipsz | is FreeNAS a linux derivitave? | 06:14 |
| Serano | yes | 06:14 |
| klloveall | Serano: Not to my knowledge. The other HDD's are, but the SSD isn't. | 06:14 |
| lewislipsz | well, that's what I want, I guess - supports multiple HDDs and different flavours of RAID I assume? | 06:14 |

| mrdeb | hi. what is fix for mount:failed not authorized with udisk | 06:15 |
| klloveall | lotuspsychje: OCZ I believe. | 06:15 |
| mrdeb | thank u!! | 06:15 |
| Serano | klloveall: I would look if I can find evidence there is still data on the disk, or I would consider it lost. | 06:15 |
| lewislipsz | looking at freenas.org now | 06:15 |
| runelind | have you guys had to deal with secure boot? I got a new motherboard and I'm having trouble getting anything to boot. | 06:16 |
| runelind | I set CSM to enabled and everything to Legacy, but still nothing :-/ | 06:16 |
| Serano | runelind: yes I had to turn of fastboot. | 06:16 |
| ahoneybun | Prufrock, does the UEFI show that secure boot is off? | 06:16 |
| Serano | and secure boot | 06:16 |
| runelind | Serano: pretty sure I disabled fastboot, but I'll check again. | 06:17 |
| Serano | runelind: secure boot aswell | 06:17 |
| ahoneybun | runelind, I turned off secure boot and it worked | 06:17 |
| lewislipsz | thanks | 06:17 |
| mrdeb | hi. what is fix for mount:failed not authorized with udisk | 06:17 |
| klloveall | lewislipsz: That's almost exactly what I have, but I ended up using ubuntu for it instead of freeNAS. Also I would suggest having the OS on a separate drive (preferably SSD, but I had it on a flash drive for a while). | 06:17 |
| klloveall | lewislipsz: Also I would make sure you have the HDDs in a software raid. | 06:18 |
| klloveall | Serano: what would be those signs? | 06:18 |
| lewislipsz | so what hardware constraints should I have in mind with freenas? doesn't seem like there's any guidance | 06:19 |
| lewislipsz | in my limited experience, some setups are unworkable with linux | 06:19 |
| Serano | klloveall: I would start with badblocks first | 06:19 |
| lewislipsz | or I'm too dumb or unmotivated to resolve | 06:19 |
| lewislipsz | amd v intel / particular onboard video chipsets / etc | 06:20 |
| Serano | fsck is an option aswell but i run badblocks first | 06:20 |
| runelind | Serano: yeah, Fast Boot is disabled by default. | 06:20 |
| Serano | lewislipsz: first of all what are you making a server or a player? | 06:20 |
| lewislipsz | just a server | 06:20 |
| Serano | than basicly any hardware that can run linux will run it. There are not that many hardware dependencies these days as there used to be. | 06:21 |
| lewislipsz | i'm just streaming to pcs or players like wdtv which handle mkvs etc fine natively | 06:21 |
| Prufrock | ahoneybun, I don't really know. But I am sure I disabled the secure boot from the BIOS. I that's how I could switch to CSM mode, ya know. :/ | 06:21 |
| lewislipsz | i'm currently using an ancient dell with xp and external usb drives to stream my media | 06:21 |
| Serano | so basicly I would look for hardware that has alot of SATA interfaces on board or PCI space enough for hardware raid cards. | 06:21 |
| nikolam | what to do with udisks-daemon using 100% cpu time | 06:22 |
| lewislipsz | i assume the specs on the pc don't need to be very robust | 06:22 |
| Serano | put that in a case that allow alot of drives in a compact way. | 06:22 |
| Serano | lewislipsz: a simple i3 would suffice for a fileserver. | 06:22 |
| lewislipsz | so i don't really need any sort of gpu then, other than whatever would display a gui for configuration | 06:23 |
| Serano | nope | 06:23 |
| klloveall | The two things I looked for was SATA interfaces/GbE Ethernet, A case that has a fan over the HDD bays, onboard graphics. | 06:23 |
| Serano | mb+mem+cpu and hdd's | 06:24 |
| klloveall | A simple celeron processor should suffice, you shouldn't even need an i3 | 06:24 |
| Serano | in a casing that allows drives :) | 06:24 |
| lewislipsz | that's what I was thinking | 06:24 |
| klloveall | Also, badblocks is running now Serano | 06:24 |
| lewislipsz | that should be all doable for a few hundred bucks, then | 06:24 |
| klloveall | Yeah, I built mine for ~$250... | 06:25 |
| lewislipsz | so, is freeNAS worthwhile? | 06:25 |
| lewislipsz | like, couldn't I just install ubuntu or any other modern distro and just use samba to share stuff? | 06:25 |
| Serano | lewislipsz: Imo if you want to play it smart. Buy cpu with low tpd. | 06:25 |
| Serano | keep the electric costs down aswell. | 06:25 |
| Serano | since it's headless and will be running 24/7 | 06:26 |
| lewislipsz | yeah, headless is fine | 06:26 |
| lewislipsz | it will sit in a closet or something | 06:26 |
| Serano | i'd advise the WD red drives aswell if you go sata. since they are optimized for 24/7 running | 06:26 |
| lewislipsz | what does freenas give me that an off the shelf linux experience wouldn't? | 06:26 |
| klloveall | I just used ubuntu. It works well and is more familiar than freeNAS (which I tried and gave up on during installation) | 06:26 |
| klloveall | nothing basically. | 06:26 |
| runelind | I keep getting code 99 on the bios splash screen, and then it reboots over and over again. | 06:26 |
| klloveall | It can run on less hardware and comes preconfigured to do what you want... | 06:27 |
| Serano | lewislipsz: nothing besides the the GUI it's done experience. All functionality can be redone, but you have to do it yourself then. | 06:27 |
| Serano | freenas is advanced in what it does. It has it's gui and backengine to do all the things one wants for a NAS and more. | 06:27 |
| runelind | can't really find any info about code 99 | 06:28 |
| klloveall | The other thing though is that you can use your file server for more than just serving files then (such as perhaps leveling audio on your music or torrenting things) | 06:28 |
| klloveall | runelind: Code 99 sounds like a motherboard code. What brand/model is your mobo? | 06:28 |
| lewislipsz | I've never raid'd before - does ubuntu handle all the various flavours natively for me? I don't need to look for particular mobo features or anything? | 06:28 |
| Serano | Freenas is based on debian | 06:29 |
| runelind | klloveall: Gigabyte GA-J1800N-D2H | 06:29 |
| Serano | so it will all be so familiar aswell | 06:29 |
| klloveall | It does. Mdadm can do 0,1,4,5,6 and 10 I believe. | 06:29 |
| runelind | klloveall: brand new | 06:29 |
| Prufrock | Anyone? :/ | 06:29 |

| lewislipsz | i've got 4TB of crap now, and only more going forward - is a straight up raid0 what I want? | 06:30 |
| klloveall | I would suggest Raid 5 or 6 so that you don't loose your data. | 06:30 |
| klloveall | I have 6 2TB's in a RAID6. | 06:30 |
| lewislipsz | which is what flavour of raid? | 06:30 |

| lewislipsz | can I mix and match different size / manufacturers of drive? | 06:31 |
| klloveall | If you get a RAID 6 it can support loosing two HDDs before you loose your data. | 06:31 |
| klloveall | Manufacturers, yes. Size under certain conditions. | 06:31 |
| lewislipsz | I think i have now multiple sizes / mfgs - toshiba, wd, etc | 06:32 |
| klloveall | It's easier if they're all the same size. What are the sizes now? | 06:32 |
| runelind | freenas with raidz1/2/3 :) | 06:33 |
| lewislipsz | so if I want 6TB of raid6 storage, how much physical storage do i need to have? | 06:33 |
| korubii | I'm trying to format my old DVR hard drive (500GB). Ubuntu can't read the drive | 06:33 |
| klloveall | It depends on the RAID type. 0: 6TB, 1: 12TB, 5: 8TB, 6: 10TB. | 06:33 |
| lewislipsz | I have a 2TB toshiba, a 2TB WD and a 1TB seagate all plugged into various USB ports on an ageing Xp machine | 06:34 |
| klloveall | Take a look at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID#Standard_levels | 06:34 |
| korubii | how do I format the drive in Ubuntu? | 06:34 |
| klloveall | That's not bad. You could get another 1TB and RAID the two 1TB's together in a RAID0 and then raid all 3 together in a RAID 5... | 06:34 |
| kostkon | lewislipsz: please continue in #ubuntu-offtopic or ##hardware | 06:34 |

| korubii | Lichte, I don't see it in computer | 06:51 |
| monkwitdafunk | my uncle had this problem before. he thanked me. he thought he had to throw away his hard disk | 06:52 |
| catopett | Is there other programs to make customized linux live cd distro then UCK? | 06:52 |
| Lichte | korubii, how is the disk attached to the computer? | 06:52 |
| Lichte | you said it is in a DVR ? | 06:53 |
| korubii | SATA | 06:53 |
| korubii | it is not in a DVR | 06:53 |
| monkwitdafunk | catopett, there is distrowatch and kernel org | 06:53 |
| Lichte | korubii, I see, you pulled it from a DVR and put it in your computer ? | 06:53 |
| korubii | it's in my computer case, connected as SATA. BIOS detected it | 06:53 |
| pvp101sing | Can someone help tranfer a file to the folder name boot on ubuntu please help | 06:53 |
| korubii | Lichte, yes. the DVR was in storage for 2 years. but had a nice 500GB drive | 06:54 |
| monkwitdafunk | the filesystem is not recognized | 06:54 |
| cristian_c | Hi | 06:54 |
| Lichte | korubii, if you open the program called disks, does it list the drive ? | 06:54 |
| monkwitdafunk | clear data reminence or have a compatable OS | 06:54 |
| cristian_c | How can I use dbus-monitor to check if devices are announced? | 06:54 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 06:54 |
| pvp101sing | Can someone help tranfer a file to the folder name boot on ubuntu please help | 06:54 |
| korubii | pvp101sing, you can use terminal. sudo mv filename /boot | 06:54 |
| korubii | pvp101sing, be careful. messing up /boot can cause major problems and require a boot repair. | 06:55 |
| lucian | hello...I just downloaded 'Kali-linux amd 64' and dont understand how to install it. I decided to learn linux for the first time and understand it, but i have hit a road block. I'd appreciate any help | 06:55 |
| cfhowlett | !backtrack|lucian, kali is not supported here. | 06:56 |
| ubottu | lucian, kali is not supported here.: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 06:56 |
| lucian | ok | 06:56 |
| aa_ | could not get lock when doing "apt-get update" | 06:57 |
| aa_ | how to do next? | 06:57 |
| korubii | aa_, sudo? | 06:57 |
| lucian | shit i thought linux and ubuntu were the same | 06:57 |
| aa_ | no use | 06:57 |
| cfhowlett | lucian, no and please watch the language | 06:57 |
| aa_ | korubii: i did sudo | 06:58 |
| korubii | lucian, Kali is an .iso right? | 06:58 |
| pvp101sing | it says that /home/travis/filename/* to boot/* no such file or directory what am I doing wrong | 06:58 |
| lucian | yes i believe so | 06:58 |
| neosploit_ | is there any ubuntu support team guy here? | 06:59 |
| aa_ | i hate apt-get. it always has some kind of problems | 06:59 |
| llutz | lucian, /join #kali-linux | 06:59 |
| korubii | pvp101sing, make sure you're in the correct directory of the file. or if it's in your home folder use ~/file (that's if it's in /home/travis/file | 06:59 |
| aa_ | no multi-tasking | 06:59 |
| korubii | aa_, I've never had a problem haha. | 06:59 |
| cfhowlett | !ask|neosploit_, | 06:59 |
| ubottu | neosploit_,: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 06:59 |

| neosploit_ | i wanna make pentest os for my company | 07:00 |
| neosploit_ | so can i use ubuntu | 07:00 |
| neosploit_ | or lubuntu | 07:00 |
| Serano | neosploit_: there used to be blackbuntu. And with your name I assume you have heard of metasploit. The OS doesn't matter, it's the software you run | 07:02 |
| neosploit_ | yeah... but we are an Cyber Security Team and we want to create our custom OS... So, Can I use ubuntu or lubuntu for it | 07:04 |
| Serano | See the latter part of my response | 07:04 |
| neosploit_ | blackbuntu is officially shutdown.... | 07:04 |
| nikolam | locate starts is find searching/indexing disk. am I forced to see this happen every time I start computer? | 07:05 |
| lucian | Thanks LLutz but no response | 07:06 |
| neosploit_ | Our OS will contain all pentesting os and We have to publish it.... So, main thing is, Is there any ubuntu Law that we can use its os for customization | 07:06 |
| llutz | neosploit_, how would we know if you can use it. you are allowed to use it, if that is what you asked | 07:06 |
| llutz | lucian, and? kali is offtopic here | 07:06 |
| lucian | ok...cool i understand now..didnt mean to jam anything up | 07:07 |
| neosploit_ | A big question is can we use Ubuntu/lubuntu to create Pentest OS and can we publish it publically..... After publish pentest os will it b create any issue from ubuntu for using ubuntu OS | 07:09 |
| Akayllin | pentest os? | 07:11 |
| Akayllin | why not just use backtrack? | 07:12 |
| Akayllin | or even better... kali. (the improved version of backtrack) | 07:12 |
| llutz | another useless distro-derivative. let's reinvent the wheel one time more | 07:12 |
| Akayllin | sorry didnt see you mentioned kali | 07:12 |
| llutz | Akayllin, sry the comment wasn't directed to you | 07:13 |
| neosploit_ | look.... we want to use somethin different. So, y not i create for me | 07:13 |
| neosploit_ | a new Pentest OS | 07:13 |
| llutz | neosploit_, so why don't you check the license info on ubuntus website and do what you like? and btw that kind of question is offtopic here too | 07:14 |
| Akayllin | but what's wrong with what we have now? why not work to improve it rather than splinter into yet another os and fragment linux even more. linux's greatest strength of opensource is also it's greatest weakness because of fragmentation of distros :\ | 07:14 |
| llutz | Akayllin, fragmentation? there are only a few distros, maybe some over 9000....time for "something different" :( | 07:15 |
| Akayllin | ? slackware, puppy, ubuntu, red hat, fedora, freebsd, arch, debian, kali/backtrack, zorin, numerous small distros and the derivatives for all the listed ones... theres a lot of distros? | 07:17 |
| neosploit_ | is there any other section to ask about ubuntu os from here | 07:18 |
| Akayllin | ummm #ubuntu-offtopic? | 07:18 |
| Akayllin | idk any others besides that and this | 07:18 |
| Akayllin | this is the "support" channel. that is the "chat" channel | 07:18 |

| godd | my hot corners do not work after every reboot on 12.04, can anyone help? | 07:25 |
| nikolam | how to stop being tortured by locate and find for an hour, after booting (and previously by udisks-daemon) | 07:29 |
| godd | i started controlling hot corners with ubuntu tweak, having the issue i described, and have since switched to using ccsm, with the same problems | 07:29 |

| mrdeb | what is gallium driver | 07:36 |
| mrdeb | for intel | 07:36 |
| llutz | nikolam: i guess it's started as cron-job. so either disable that and run updatedb manually from time to time or change the time the cronjob starts to a more suitable time | 07:37 |

| nikolam | llutz, that is all great, but that 'background' procedure visibly use more resources then espected. | 07:39 |
| dutt_ | I'm trying to find out if i've got revision 1 or 2 of my motherboard, x58a-ud3r but can't seem to find it in any tool. lshw says version x.x, and it doesn't seem to say any version in hardinfo. anyone got any idea for anothre tool? | 07:39 |
| nikolam | I was thinking, since I also use btrfs and zfs that use checksums on files (besides ntfs fuse) that those procedures could use checksums to identify not changed files. | 07:40 |
| DTSCode | hey guys... im looking for something like ubuntu one, except i want to be able to automate backups | 07:40 |

| pi_____ | Merlin__: can Ubuntu start? | 08:17 |
| bq | llutz: no actually the python-scrapy installedis 0.12 but the latest is 0.22. reinstall does not work. how to solve this? | 08:20 |
| llutz | bq: apt-cache policy python-scrapy | 08:21 |
| llutz | bq: check if the newer version is listed. if so, do you have pinning active? | 08:22 |
| Merlin__ | pi: yes Ubuntu is running fine, I'm typing this on it now!! LOL It's just that "applying changes" window that's locked up | 08:22 |
| bq | llutz: how to check if the newer version is listed? | 08:22 |
| llutz | bq: apt-cache policy python-scrapy | 08:22 |
| llutz | bq: should be listed under "Version...." | 08:23 |
| bq | both installed and candidate are 0.12 | 08:23 |
| bq | I want the latest which is 0.22 | 08:23 |
| llutz | bq: no newer version available. where did you see 0.22? | 08:23 |
| pi_____ | Merlin__: you can try apt-get autoremove ///// autoclean ///// update ////// upgrade | 08:23 |
| bq | on scrapy website | 08:24 |
| pi_____ | Merlin__: with sudo like a root | 08:24 |
| llutz | bq: either look for a ppa providing that version or build it yourself | 08:24 |
| bq | llutz: what is ppa? | 08:24 |

| Merlin__ | pi____: how? just with the X in the top left corner? | 08:26 |
| llutz | bq: so has trusty. you need to find external repos for it if you really need that new version | 08:27 |

| chris_wot | Beldar, silly question - what's the best way of doing this? | 08:38 |

| Armo | Ubuntu 13.10, that is. | 08:40 |
| Beldar | no prob | 08:40 |

| ron | hi. I'm trying to install the mini.iso following a HOWTO on xbmc installation. I've followed this http://mummila.net/nuudelisoppa/2012/02/16/booting-ubuntus-minimal-cd-iso-from-grub2/ to run it from disk via grub, and it loads fine. The problem is I encounter https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1244176 and I'm not sure if and how I can work around it. | 08:41 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1244176 in linux (Ubuntu Trusty) "Server 13.10 Install Fails with USB Keyboard (Appears to Hang)" [High,Fix released] | 08:41 |
| ron | any suggestions would be appreciated. | 08:41 |
| monkwitdafunk | Integrity check with md5 and sha1. learn pipes and redirection with read, write and copy bytes(wc) | 08:41 |
| gordonjcp | ron: 13.10 is horrible | 08:42 |
| gordonjcp | ron: just use XBMCBuntu and save yourself a lot of time | 08:42 |
| Merlin___ | monkwitdafunk: I downloaded it direct from the Ubuntu site, stuck it on a USB stick and installed it on a brand new hard drive | 08:42 |
| pi_____ | Merlin___: its ok | 08:42 |
| ron | gordonjcp: I can't. The HOWTO specifically says to go with the mini.iso installation. http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=174854 I'm on an AMD machine so the XBMCBuntu is a poor fit. | 08:43 |
| Merlin___ | pi____: seems ok, at least it booted again! :) | 08:43 |
| bq | sudo apt-get update error: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7014945/ | 08:43 |
| monkwitdafunk | Integrity check. For example, mirrors.kernel.org (ftp) can have a diffrent integrity check than a torrent version with diffrent maintainers | 08:43 |
| pi_____ | Merlin___: you can go to terminal and use apt-get | 08:43 |
| pi_____ | Merlin___: and ignore update manager | 08:43 |
| llutz | bq: warning, not an error | 08:43 |
| gordonjcp | ron: why would it be a "poor fit"? | 08:44 |
| gordonjcp | ron: good luck with it. | 08:44 |
| ron | gordonjcp: I'm just following the guide of the amd xbmc version maintainer :) | 08:44 |
| gordonjcp | ron: 13.10 does not work with USB keyboards, or anything other than NVidia graphics | 08:44 |
| Merlin___ | pi____: what are you asking me to use "apt-get" for? | 08:45 |
| bq | llutz: first line warning. second line error | 08:45 |
| gordonjcp | ron: it's fundamentally broken, in many ways | 08:45 |
| llutz | bq: still nothing to worry about. wait a while, try again | 08:45 |
| pi_____ | Merlin___: im not asking | 08:46 |
| ron | gordonjcp: I hear what you're saying, but since the xbmc maintainer wrote this guide, I don't see many other choices really. I wouldn't know where to begin with xbmcbuntu as I'm having other issues with it. | 08:46 |
| monkwitdafunk | Gui is what makes a OS famous. The gui can be more reliable for firewalls and be more user friendly | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | ron: download the XBMCbuntu ISO, stick it on a USB drive, boot it | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | ron: simple as that | 08:46 |
| bq | llutz: i tried several times | 08:46 |
| ron | gordonjcp: and again, it doesn't work well with AMD Fusion. | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | monkwitdafunk: firewalls don't need a GUI | 08:46 |
| monkwitdafunk | An example.would be bringing the television experience.to.computers | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | ron: nothing does | 08:46 |
| ron | gordonjcp: okay. have a great day! | 08:47 |
| gordonjcp | ron: get an NVidia graphics card, they are about the only ones supported properly in recent Linuxes (of any distro) | 08:47 |
| llutz | bq: use a different mirror then | 08:47 |
| gordonjcp | ron: seriously, save yourself a lot of bother | 08:47 |
| ron | gordonjcp: seriously, have a great day :) | 08:47 |
| gordonjcp | ron: spend 20 quid on an entry-level NVidia card and use XBMCbuntu | 08:47 |
| monkwitdafunk | They make.the hardware, they make the drivers | 08:47 |
| Merlin___ | thanks pi, monk. It seems to be running again now... | 08:47 |
| gordonjcp | do that, and it will not ever go wrong | 08:47 |
| monkwitdafunk | Ok.cool merlin | 08:48 |
| gordonjcp | monkwitdafunk: TV manufacturers don't make their own firmware | 08:48 |
| monkwitdafunk | No. Macintosh in history | 08:48 |
| gordonjcp | oh, right, yeah | 08:49 |

| dj_tjerk | I've currently got 13.04 installed with full disk encryption, and I want to upgrade to 13.10 | 09:37 |
| dj_tjerk | Does the upgrade process take that encryption into account, or will it overwrite everything? | 09:37 |
| dj_tjerk | when I upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04 it did actually overwrite everything, but I'm hoping the upgrading process has been improved to 'detect' full disk encryption | 09:38 |
| dj_tjerk | anyone have any experience with upgrading ubuntu installations already using full disk encryption? | 09:39 |

| justaguy | dj_tjerk: Well , i never upgrade | 09:54 |
| justaguy | dj_tjerk: mostly i just backup all my files and then reinstall | 09:55 |
| justaguy | but disk encryption is no bad factor when upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10 | 09:55 |

| kostkon | bq, what version of ubuntu? | 10:07 |
| bq | kostkon: 12.04 | 10:08 |
| kostkon | bq, did you just install it? | 10:08 |
| bq | yes | 10:08 |
| kostkon | bq, using the 12.04.4 iso or some earlier one? | 10:09 |
| bq | it's 12.04 LTS. not sure | 10:10 |
| bq | minor version | 10:10 |
| kostkon | bq, the 12.04.x are refreshed releases of 12.04 with all the updates already applied. So if you have installed it using the 12.04.4 then it's not normal to have some many updates to install | 10:12 |
| bq | kostkon: i guess it is 12.04 I downloaded long time ago | 10:12 |
| kostkon | bq, but go ahead and install them. we'll just assume you probably used an older 12.04 release | 10:12 |
| bq | kostkon: how long would it take to upgrade from 12.04 to the latest? | 10:14 |
| kostkon | bq, if you isntall all the updates, you will automatically update to 12.04.4 | 10:14 |
| bq | kostkon: why 12.04.4 is so important? I want to upgrade to 13.x or 14.x | 10:15 |
| kostkon | bq, you have to be up to date to be able to upgrade to a newer release of ubuntu | 10:16 |
| kostkon | bq, but i would recommend you to wait another month and then you will be able to upgrade directly to 14.04 | 10:16 |
| kostkon | month or so | 10:16 |
| bq | kostkon: so you mean I have to update to 12.04.4 then be able to upgrade to 14.04? | 10:17 |
| kostkon | bq, yes, that's the case | 10:17 |
| bq | so I can upgrade from 12.04.4 to 14.04 directly without go through the middle? | 10:17 |
| kostkon | bq, yes | 10:18 |
| bq | how long does it take approximately? | 10:18 |
| kostkon | bq, depends on your internet speed and pc specs | 10:19 |
| bq | normal conditions | 10:19 |
| bq | suppose 20M internet speed and latest laptop | 10:20 |

| kostkon | bq, no idea, but take into consideration the following facts: 500mb for the update to 12.04.4 and probably another 500-800mb for the upgrade to 14.04, 1000+ pacakges to install. | 10:22 |

| ng_ | looks like so | 10:23 |
| kostkon | bq, ~1000 packages to update* | 10:23 |
| bq | kostkon: maybe it is easier to install 14.04 directly without upgrade | 10:24 |
| ng_ | can I comment it out of /etc/fstab? | 10:24 |
| ng_ | /dev/mapper/xeon-root / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 | 10:24 |
| bq | kostkon: do you think so? | 10:24 |
| kostkon | bq, it is, but 14.04 is still in beta | 10:24 |

| sv2241 | what FTP server do you recommend that can use multiple chrooted paths? tried ProFTPd earlier and I could only add additional paths (from my NAS) by re-mounting them with bind mount in the ftpuser chroot environment.

| sv2241 | jailed ftp user home | 11:28 |
| sv2241 | as it looks like, linux ftp servers give you only two options: either provide a user access to the whole server or only to a jailed path. I want to give a ftpuser access to multiple paths, not the whole server | 11:31 |
| geirha | sv2241: Perhaps mount-bind the various paths into the jail | 11:36 |
| geirha | with mount -o bind (or --bind or -B) | 11:36 |

| sv2241 | geirha: surely there must be another way. I want to replicate the behaviour Windows FTP servers have. To add as many paths I want from outside the the ftpuser's chroot-ed environment without him being able to cdup. basically to access only the certain paths that I give him access to. Maybe there's something that can be configured similar with Samba shares. WHen ftpuser connects to see only the | 11:41 |
| sv2241 | shares I've created for him, nothing else. | 11:41 |
| sv2241 | geirha: by FTP I mean FTPs or SFTP | 11:41 |

| StarOnD | I set the CLASSPATH for antlr4 in my .bashrc and it runs fine in an interactive session in the terminal | 11:52 |
| geirha | StarOnD: Because .bashrc is only read for interactive sessions | 11:53 |
| geirha | os.system in python runs sh though, not bash, and even if it had run bash, it would be a non-interactive session, so .bashrc would not have been read | 11:53 |
| StarOnD | umm so how do I make the same environment variables available from a os.system ( ) call from a python script? | 11:53 |

| TaZi | Hello, I tried to install Ubuntu on my Lenovo Ultrabook, so I downloaded the Ubuntu 13.10 Image from the website and created a bootable USB Stick with the software recommended on the ubuntu website. When I booted the Laptop and chose "try Ubuntu without install" nothing happened (just black screen, though the LED on my USB Stick blinked for a while). So I tried to download the image of Version | 13:55 |
| TaZi | 12.04 LTS. I again created a bootable stick, and after I activated the internet connection during the installation process, everything worked and ubuntu installed correctly. I had to repair the bootloader, but afterwards, I was able to chose on startup whether I wanted to boot Windows or Ubuntu. So everything fine up to now. The weird thing now is, I can't establish an Internet-connection with | 13:55 |
| TaZi | the laptop in Ubuntu. The network manager doesn't show any WLAN networks. (remember I was able to connect to the net, when I installed Ubuntu o.O). What could be the problem and how do I fix it? | 13:55 |
| cfhowlett | ovrflw0x, try a different software mirror - edit your software source settings | 13:55 |
| ovrflw0x | cfhowlett: how to figure out which one needs to be removed? | 13:55 |
| === brat is now known as Guest30530 | ||
| cfhowlett | ovrflw0x, not REMOVED - changed. there's an option to automatically test and choose the best mirror | 13:56 |
| ovrflw0x | only few of them show 404 not found rest mirrors work | 13:56 |
| cfhowlett | ovrflw0x, there you go - choose one that works and enjoy | 13:57 |
| ovrflw0x | what? | 13:57 |
| ovrflw0x | cfhowlett: what do you mean "enjoy" enjoy what? | 13:57 |
| cfhowlett | choose a mirror that works and get your updates done | 13:57 |

| cfhowlett | ovrflw0x, again; change the mirror. right now, you're pointed at the main US mirror. there are others. | 14:01 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: run lsmod on the live cd and on the installed system and compare them | 14:02 |

| usr13 | demianb: The "administrator account" as you call it is just the first user account, (the one that was created during install). That account *does* have admin privileges, and so it can loosely be refered to as an "administrator account" because it is able to preform all admin tasks. If you create another account, it will be just like a guest account and will not have admin rights. But as long as you have a pretty good password, it is ok to operate under the | 14:15 |

| OerHeks | BorisUbuntu, for what? | 15:19 |
| makara | i noticed today another user in Unity user menu 'J. Random User'. On my other machine it used to be 'Guest Session' | 15:20 |
| BorisUbuntu | um well Im boristheanimal.. | 15:20 |
| OerHeks | BorisUbuntu, come on, you can read back on your other machine | 15:20 |
| obje | anyone here able to help me with the previous question | 15:21 |
| obje | ? | 15:21 |
| linux_unix-10 | still nothing, runs like nothing happened | 15:21 |
| BorisUbuntu | yeah was just wondering if you meant software & updates > last tab to the right: additional drivers | 15:21 |
| OerHeks | BorisUbuntu, yes, that is the driver menu | 15:21 |
| yeats | makara: see this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2186105 | 15:22 |
| BorisUbuntu | Okay how can I enable the fglrx for multiple cards by the way? | 15:23 |
| yeats | linux_unix-10: what about 'wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libr/libreoffice/libreoffice-base_3.5.7-0ubuntu5_i386.deb'? | 15:23 |
| linux_unix-10 | done but dunno what else was halted due to previously failed download of package | 15:24 |

| Xaft | Hi I'm having some issue installing libprce-dev, it says it has no installation candidate and most tutorials online do not help. Can someone help me? | 15:29 |
| TaZi | Hello, I tried to install Ubuntu on my Lenovo Ultrabook, so I downloaded the Ubuntu 13.10 Image from the website and created a bootable USB Stick with the software recommended on the ubuntu website. When I booted the Laptop and chose "try Ubuntu without install" nothing happened (just black screen, though the LED on my USB Stick blinked for a while). So I tried to download the image of Version | 15:29 |
| TaZi | 12.04 LTS. I again created a bootable stick, and after I activated the internet connection during the installation process, everything worked and ubuntu installed correctly. I had to repair the bootloader, but afterwards, I was able to chose on startup whether I wanted to boot Windows or Ubuntu. So everything fine up to now. The weird thing now is, I can't establish an Internet-connection with | 15:29 |
| TaZi | the laptop in Ubuntu. The network manager doesn't show any WLAN networks. (remember I was able to connect to the net, when I installed Ubuntu o.O). Then I asked here in the channel, what to do and was told to compare the modules of the life version and the ones of the installed version. The life version had the following modules, which the installed one had not: arc4 | 15:29 |
| TaZi | btrfs | 15:29 |
| TaZi | dm_log | 15:29 |
| TaZi | dm_mirror | 15:29 |
| TaZi | dm_multipath | 15:29 |
| TaZi | dm_raid45 | 15:29 |
| TaZi | dm_region_hash | 15:29 |
| TaZi | iwlmvm | 15:29 |
| TaZi | mac80211 | 15:29 |
| TaZi | overlayfs | 15:29 |
| TaZi | raid6_pq | 15:29 |
| TaZi | scsi_dh | 15:29 |
| Xaft | Hi I'm having some issue installing libprce-dev, it says it has no installation candidate and most tutorials online do not help. Can someone help me? | 15:30 |
| zuppuz | quick question: is user session info logged somewhere? (i am looking for login and logout times) | 15:30 |
| makara | yeats, that page is inconclusive | 15:31 |
| makara | what's more worrying is that root user has a password, and its not one I set | 15:31 |
| BorisUbuntu | how do I make a .sh executable file | 15:33 |
| OerHeks | Xaft, looks like that package does not exist in ubuntu repositorys | 15:33 |
| geirha | BorisUbuntu: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide/CommandsAndArguments#Scripts | 15:34 |
| geirha | BorisUbuntu: don't include .sh in the filename | 15:34 |
| makara | is there any way to find out when the root password was set? | 15:34 |
| BorisUbuntu | geirha. thanks.. oh why not include? | 15:34 |
| zuppuz | nobody knows? [quick question: is user session info logged somewhere? (i am looking for login and logout times)] | 15:35 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: hi again | 15:35 |
| llutz | zuppuz: "last" | 15:35 |
| zuppuz | last? | 15:35 |
| geirha | BorisUbuntu: Commands don't have extensions. The command to list files, is it ls.elf or ls? | 15:35 |
| TaZi | Phil42: Hi, are you able to tell anything from that list? | 15:36 |
| zuppuz | dont understand | 15:36 |
| llutz | zuppuz: "last" is a command | 15:36 |
| Phil42 | did you say that the only module that one has that the other does not have is arc4/ | 15:36 |
| Phil42 | ? | 15:36 |
| TaZi | no | 15:36 |
| BorisUbuntu | geirha, ls -l then you get a list of files in the folder you are in | 15:36 |
| Phil42 | ok, are you using wireless networking? | 15:37 |
| geirha | BorisUbuntu: right, and ls is an ELF binary, yet it's called ls, not ls.elf | 15:37 |
| TaZi | arc4,btrfs,dm_log,dm_mirror,dm_multipath,dm_raid45,dm_region_hash,iwlmvm,mac80211,overlayfs,raid6_pq,scsi_dh,squashhfs,usb_storage,xor,zlib_deflate | 15:37 |
| TaZi | this is the complete liste of modules thats missing in the installed version compared to the life version. | 15:38 |
| yeats | makara: you can check /var/log/auth.log to see if anyone has logged in that wasn't you | 15:38 |
| geirha | BorisUbuntu: Whether the command the user runs is a compiled binary, a perl script or a bash script is irrelevant to the user that wants to run it. The user only cares that the command does what it's intended to do. | 15:38 |
| TaZi | yes, I have to, as the ultrabook has no RJ45 port | 15:38 |
| OerHeks | makara, see this bugreport https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ido/+bug/1256590 | 15:38 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: there are some networking modules there | 15:38 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1256590 in ido (Ubuntu) "J. Random User Showing In Unity Power Menu Indicator" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 15:38 |
| BorisUbuntu | yeah got that | 15:39 |
| zuppuz | llutz: ah ok thanks.... but those are not the times of user session logins but of computer boots right? | 15:39 |
| OerHeks | yeats the odd thing is, it does not show up in users | 15:39 |
| yeats | OerHeks: hmm | 15:39 |
| zuppuz | llutz: what must i type exactly? | 15:39 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: try modprobe iwlmvm if you are lucky that will get it started | 15:39 |
| llutz | zuppuz: "last" should give you a list of usernames and the times they were logged in/out. + reboots should be listed too. | 15:40 |
| zuppuz | maybe with sudo? | 15:41 |
| TaZi | ok, I logged in as "root" and typed the command. There was no prompt at all | 15:41 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: maybe it would be better to add iwlmvm to your /etc/modules file before your reboot | 15:41 |
| yeats | OerHeks: makara: yeah - this really sounds more like a bug and not an attack to me | 15:41 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: are you running live cd now/ | 15:42 |
| Phil42 | ? | 15:42 |
| TaZi | no, I run the installed version at the moment | 15:42 |
| Phil42 | how are you neworked? on another computer? | 15:42 |
| zuppuz | llutz: have to go... be back later.... thanks for help | 15:42 |
| Eagleman | Any idea why my Windows Server 2012 crashes when i try to open a share residing on Ubuntu 12.04 Server fully updated? | 15:43 |
| makara | yeats, why is there a password on root user?!?!? | 15:43 |
| makara | that shouldn't be | 15:43 |
| TaZi | yes, on my desktop PC | 15:43 |
| makara | sudo vim /etc/shadow | 15:43 |
| Phil42 | i suggest adding iwlmvm to your /etc/modules file and rebooting (i also suggest crossing fingers) | 15:44 |
| yeats | makara: any entries in auth.log? | 15:44 |
| llutz | makara sudo passwd -dl root don't edit shadow manually | 15:44 |
| TaZi | allright, I tell you in a moment what happened | 15:45 |

| yeats | makara: any that look relevant? that look like failed password attempts?, etc. within the time before this appeared and now? | 15:46 |
| makara | tell me why `sudo grep *change* /var/log/auth.log` outputs `Binary file /var/log/auth.log matches` | 15:46 |
| makara | also `sudo cat /var/log/auth.log | grep change` | 15:47 |
| TaZi | ok, nothing happened. Its a bit weird, when I'm just logged in in Ubuntu there is a short popup telling me, that I'm not connected to the Inet anymore. | 15:47 |
| Xip | Hello friends | 15:48 |
| yeats | makara: those commands work for me | 15:48 |
| yeats | makara: and here's what a successful root passwd change message contains 'password changed for root' | 15:48 |
| TaZi | but I just tried "ls mod" again and he loaded the "iwlmvm" module and also mac80211 is appearing now. | 15:49 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: now add mac80211 to the /etc/modules file and reboot | 15:49 |
| makara | llutz, that -l switch, the hash for root has an ! | 15:49 |
| makara | i wondered about that | 15:49 |
| makara | i must have done that by accident ages ago | 15:49 |
| Phil42 | oops, don't put mac80211 in /etc/modules it won't help | 15:50 |
| llutz | makara: the ! means, account locked | 15:50 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: it is getting loaded | 15:50 |
| Phil42 | now you need to run the wifi setup program | 15:51 |
| makara | llutz, could an update have done that? | 15:51 |
| makara | is yours locked? | 15:51 |
| llutz | makara: it's the default | 15:51 |
| TaZi | ok, where do I find that? | 15:51 |
| Phil42 | i am not sure :( | 15:51 |
| Phil42 | i don't run wifi :( | 15:51 |
| makara | llutz, on my other laptop it's just !, no hash after that | 15:52 |
| usr13 | TaZi: did you do updates yet? | 15:52 |
| usr13 | TaZi: Did you connect to wired connection and do all your updages? | 15:53 |
| TaZi | no I didn't. I don't know how to do that without an internet connection | 15:53 |
| llutz | makara: oh, i misread you. your root-entry has a hash in the 2nd field? it should only be a ! | 15:53 |
| corefinder | wired or not. matters? | 15:53 |
| TaZi | I have no RJ45 Port on my Ultrabook | 15:53 |
| usr13 | TaZi: Do you have a wireless router? | 15:53 |
| TaZi | yes | 15:53 |
| makara | llutz, its !$6$asldkfjalsdkfjaldksfj....etc | 15:54 |
| usr13 | TaZi: You do not have a ethernet port. Oh, well that is a problem. | 15:54 |
| === scarface` is now known as scarface | ||
| makara | root:!$6$alksjdflakjf;lakjsdf;lakjsdflakjds... | 15:54 |
| llutz | makara sudo passwd -dl root to lock it again and remove the password | 15:54 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: do you have a usb ethernet adapter? | 15:54 |
| TaZi | yep, the only way I can add any data to my installed ubuntu version at the moment is via USB-Stick | 15:54 |
| TaZi | no =) | 15:54 |
| usr13 | TaZi: Then you probably have to boot the install media and chroot into the filesystem, get connected to WiFi and then do updates. | 15:55 |
| === UltimateMobile is now known as UltimateNate | ||
| === deadlock is now known as alone | ||
| usr13 | !chroot | TaZi | 15:55 |
| ubottu | TaZi: 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 | 15:55 |
| Xip | One of my laptops doesn't want to boot and I don't know why. If I go to GRUB holding shift, then selecting previous working linux ~~ it works. Now that I'm in Ubuntu, is there some way I can make this version the standard boot? I tried boot-repair and it didn't help | 15:55 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: you have the wifi setup software on your cd | 15:55 |
| levo | what does it mean (in apt-get update) E: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net precise Release: The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2 | 15:55 |
| usr13 | Xip: Yes | 15:55 |
| TaZi | this ultrabook has no CD-Rom Drive =) | 15:56 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: you might have the setup software on your installed system | 15:56 |
| Phil42 | TaZi: i just don't know how to run it | 15:56 |
| usr13 | Xip: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub | 15:57 |
| makara | llutz, i've done that, and its change to a single exclamation mark. But I see the -l switch in the man file says 'Lock the password of the named account. This option disables a password by changing it to a value which matches no possible encrypted value (it adds a ´!´ at the beginning of the password).` | 15:57 |
| usr13 | Xip: change GRUB_DEFAULT to a number that is the position of your selected entry (counting from 0) | 15:57 |
| TaZi | yep, me neither =). But maybe usr13 could describe a bit more in detail how I'm able to update the installed version from the life version. It appeared to me, that I could not write on any Drive, when running the life version | 15:58 |
| makara | thanks guys I breath easier now | 15:58 |

| Na3iL | hello ubunturos :) | 16:05 |
| Xip | usr13: I found the answer online for my follow up question. Thanks for the help again. | 16:06 |
| usr13 | Xip: What did you find? (I was away...) | 16:07 |
| slyrus | argh... how do I get out of "system is running in low-graphics mode" hell? | 16:07 |
| usr13 | Xip: What is "life version"? | 16:08 |
| paq | slyrus, install graphics drivers(nvidia/ati/whatever) | 16:08 |
| usr13 | slyrus: What version of Ubuntu do you have installed? | 16:08 |
| Xip | usr13: You could write like "2>2". Since option one is 0 and "Previous linux versions" is 3rd it's 2 and then in there the only one that works is 3rd place it's also to (so 2>2) | 16:09 |
| slyrus | 13.10, tried to build a new kernel, now all the kernels are stuck in low graphics mode | 16:09 |
| usr13 | slyrus: And how did it get into "low-graphics mode"? | 16:09 |
| slyrus | that's what shows up when I reboot | 16:09 |
| slyrus | the X logs say "failed to initialize the nvidia kernel module..." | 16:10 |
| TaZi | maybe it helps that "iwconfig" prompts only "lo no wireless extensions" | 16:10 |
| usr13 | slyrus: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:10 |
| Eagleman | Any idea why my Windows Server 2012 crashes when i try to open a share residing on Ubuntu 12.04 Server fully updated? | 16:10 |
| slyrus | usr13: I've tried that, but will again | 16:10 |
| usr13 | Eagleman: It's a samba share? | 16:11 |
| Xip | usr13: I have 12.04.4 LTS precise | 16:11 |
| Eagleman | usr yes | 16:11 |
| slyrus | I do note that that I don't have the /dev/nvidia[0,1,2...] files, so that might be problematic | 16:11 |
| linuxuz3r | qemu 2.0 is not available in 12.04 | 16:12 |
| Xip | usr13: Since it was such a pain and din't want to boot I was going to install another version on it, but the CD rom doens't want to boot and it has all kinds of issues. So just getting it to boot with a previous kernel just felt like a quick fix | 16:12 |
| usr13 | slyrus: And you wont until you re-install the nvidia software again. | 16:13 |
| Dbugger | Hello guys. I have been trying to make some sense out of what "alsamixer" is showing me, but I am not being some successful.

| slyrus | ok, which version of the nvidia drivers should I be trying to install? | 16:14 |
| usr13 | slyrus: So you installed a custom kernel? | 16:14 |
| slyrus | usr13: yes, but I get the same problem when I boot with the stock kernel now | 16:14 |
| usr13 | slyrus: lspci |pastebinit #Let's look and see. | 16:14 |
| usr13 | slyrus: You've deleted /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:14 |
| usr13 | slyrus: (that's why) | 16:15 |
| usr13 | slyrus: You'd have to run nvidia-xconfig again. | 16:15 |
| === ranok_ is now known as ranok | ||
| usr13 | slyrus: (Which is run at the end of the install process when you do the nvidia install.) | 16:16 |
| slyrus | ok, let me get the lspci output for you. | 16:16 |
| usr13 | slyrus: But if you are on the stock kernel and you do sudo nvidia-xconfig It should fix it, (as long as you boot to that kernel again). | 16:17 |
| usr13 | slyrus: But I can also tell you how to install the Nvidia drivers anew. | 16:17 |

| usr13 | slyrus: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/73221/en-us | 16:22 |
| usr13 | slyrus: You need to uninstall what you have, sudo apt-get remove nvidia* | 16:22 |
| slyrus | ok | 16:23 |
| usr13 | slyrus: before you do the [manual] install, you need to turn off the GUI, sudo service lightdm stop | 16:23 |
| usr13 | slyrus: And then run the installer from console mode, (with GUI off). | 16:24 |
| usr13 | slyrus: It is possible you can install nvidia-current (but I wouldn't count on it, because of the custom kernel, just don't know). | 16:25 |
| usr13 | slyrus: The way I told you will work. | 16:25 |
| slyrus | great! downloading. | 16:25 |
| usr13 | okeydokey | 16:25 |
| theref | if you happen to run trojan on wine | 16:26 |
| theref | can it get data of your root folders? | 16:26 |
| slyrus | with the stock kernel, should a reinstall of nvidia-current fix things too? | 16:26 |
| usr13 | theref: Wrong channel. | 16:26 |
| theref | which channel should i ask? | 16:27 |
| usr13 | theref: Why do you want to run a trojan in wine? | 16:27 |
| usr13 | theref: Well, the short answer is no. | 16:27 |
| theref | who said I want to run trojan lol | 16:27 |
| theref | i said, if "I happen to run" | 16:28 |
| Teddy5090 | theref: If you want to do that, it is much safer to run a virus / trojan in VirtualBox | 16:28 |
| theref | ic, | 16:28 |
| usr13 | theref: The answer is no | 16:28 |
| theref | thank you for answering the question despite wrong channel, ill try either virtualbox or vmware | 16:29 |
| cfhowlett | theref, #vbox | 16:29 |
| slyrus | hrm.... distribution-previded pre-install script failed. | 16:29 |
| usr13 | theref: Teddy5090 is correct, do a VM install and then you can do your experiment. | 16:29 |
| usr13 | !vbox | theref | 16:30 |
| ubottu | theref: Virtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 16:30 |
| slyrus | usr13: you're a genius! thanks! | 16:31 |
| TaZi | maybe we try to attack the problem from another angle. What could be the problem with the Ubuntu 13.10 USB image? (remember: 12.4 LTS was installed nicely from an Image I put onto a USB Stick, whereas Ubuntu 13.10 did nothing after booting and chosing "Try Ubuntu without installing") | 16:31 |
| theref | oh cool let me test | 16:31 |
| usr13 | slyrus: NP | 16:31 |
| theref | !usr13 | usr13 | 16:31 |
| Teddy5090 | The most a virus can do in Wine is basically just infect the "windows" side of things, and it cannot infect the actual Linux partition because, in most cases, a virus simply doesn't recognize the Linux file system or its files for that matter | 16:31 |
| slyrus | I still haven't solved my custom kernel, but, hey, one step at a time, right? | 16:31 |

| Dbugger | Hi guys | 16:49 |
| OerHeks | fasmos wireshark has nothing to do with irc features, it is just a wifi sniffer | 16:49 |
| yeticry | the bash completion is work fine with ls or cd, but not correct with mv cp ... | 16:49 |
| fasmos | im using IRC too | 16:50 |
| yeticry | ls /good/work<tab> get /good/work/ but mv /bad/work<tab> get /bad/work <space here> | 16:50 |
| fasmos | RFC* | 16:51 |
| slyrus | and 3.12.0 now works. yay! | 16:51 |
| usr13 | slyrus: We knew it would ;) | 16:51 |
| slyrus | and there's the usb device I needed. great. | 16:52 |
| Dbugger | when I open alsamixer on the terminal, there is a bar called "Headphones". What does that bar control? I figured if I plug headphones into the speakers jack, it would use the same bar to control the volume... | 16:52 |
| BorisTheAnimal | yeticry ran it but it gave me this: http://pastebin.com/6XnWFhdy | 16:56 |

| Aossi | ok sooo my ubuntu 12.04 is laggy and im not just talking about specific things im talking system in general. its never been laggy before this has only been going on today infact. is there a way i can rectify this? | 17:14 |
| Jeroen-X750J | Can you PM me yout email | 17:14 |
| Jeroen-X750J | I have to go in a bit | 17:14 |
| sergey_ | and burn using dd command | 17:14 |
| sergey_ | is there any faster way to do? | 17:15 |
| Aossi | nope | 17:15 |
| Jeroen-X750J | Aossi | 17:15 |
| Jeroen-X750J | Is yout dash laggy? | 17:15 |
| sergey_ | I just need to | 17:15 |
| Aossi | Jeroen-X750J: yea saddly | 17:15 |
| sergey_ | hey maybe you can fix | 17:15 |
| sergey_ | "No file system mounted on /target | 17:15 |
| Jeroen-X750J | Alright Disable online searches in privacy&security | 17:15 |
| Jeroen-X750J | That should speed it up | 17:16 |
| sergey_ | Before installation can proceed, a root file system must be mounted on /target. The partitioner and formatter should have done this for you." | 17:16 |
| Jeroen-X750J | And i reccomend the program Bleachbit for cleaning your system | 17:16 |
| Jeroen-X750J | I really need to go | 17:16 |
| sergey_ | I just need to do that | 17:16 |
| sergey_ | and | 17:16 |
| sergey_ | VERY THANKS | 17:16 |

| Pencho | lickalott> It's a friend drive, he told me a virus fucked it. It have no format, i tried to mount it with mount -t vfat, but it doesn't work. If you want i can show you the "dmesg tail" message. | 17:52 |

| Capitaine | what is the algorythm used to crypt password that lead to passphrase for home directory^ | 17:52 |
| lickalott | Pencho, I would try gparted to see what the partition table is (unless you know for sure it's vfat). the other thing you could do is see if it even shows up in dev. (i.e. run a while loop in /dev/ and grep for sd) plug in the drive and see if it shows up | 17:54 |

| bekks | BorisTheAnimal: shift or esc, depending on your grub version. | 18:17 |
| BorisTheAnimal | and when am I supposed to do this? | 18:18 |
| lickalott | there's a command that you can run against .desktop files that will tell you if they are constructed properly | 18:18 |
| bekks | BorisTheAnimal: After the BIOS screen, prior booting your OS. | 18:18 |
| lucido | my fusian apu vs catralist black screen was solved by installing the fglrx-updates package | 18:18 |

| bugs_bugger | hi there. need some help: i tried to install python 3.3.4 (repo ver is 3.3.2), 13.10. Now i've got 2 problems: 1) used the source tarball and checkinstall, replacing the default python3.3 package. in synaptic, 3.3.2 is shown as installed, in fact its 3.3.4 (interactive python). i coulnd reset that even with reinstalling the package from synaptic. | 18:25 |
| BorisTheAnimal | sometimes I get the feeling that the problems I get are very rare. | 18:25 |
| bugs_bugger | problem 2): i use a python library (nltk). in order to update it to the new version, wanted to run setup.py. but i get an error that setuptools is missing. python3-setuptools is installed though. how can i fix this? | 18:25 |
| lickalott | aight, so bekks which other VM software have you tried? reason I ask is; I tried vbox first and it was SLLLOOOOWWWW. but the virt-manager with kvm won't launch the VM without the disc in (which is weird in and of itself) | 18:25 |
| lickalott | boot with a live cd, grab the stuff you want, fresh install BorisTheAnimal | 18:26 |
| lickalott | a freshy fresh install just feels better anyway. it's like christmas morning | 18:27 |
| BorisTheAnimal | no it ain't, not after the third time. | 18:27 |

| lickalott | promise not to laugh | 18:31 |
| lickalott | intel core duo 2.4 | 18:31 |

| lickalott | i lied....its a 2.26 | 18:32 |

| pokeswap | but the live cd and persistance have to be redistrobutable. The OS I want to do this to is running in a vm. | 18:48 |

| Beldar | pokeswap, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization I think this is what you want, the crux is that a vm to a install on a hard drive is not the easiest way. | 18:49 |
| Beldar | or just a live cd | 18:49 |
| pokeswap | and that link will allow browser addons to be saved and files to be redistrobuted? When I use lb config/lb build, I only get a fresh install of the applications on a list | 18:50 |

| sudormrf | hello all. I am trying to get a very simple process to occur with inotifywait. what I am trying to accomplish is anytime a certain folder is modified I want any of the files to be copied from that folder to another folder. here is the code for the script that I am using http://paste.ubuntu.com/7017646/ | 18:54 |
| Beldar | pokeswap, Theoretically anything can be done, I believe the custom cd is limited to additional apps...etc. | 18:54 |
| sudormrf | the problem is that when I run that script it says Illegal instruction inotifywait -e modify,create,delete -r /path/to/folder | 18:54 |
| sudormrf | any ideas what is wrong here? | 18:55 |
| pokeswap | I know how 2 do it with just new apps. The problem is incorperating scripts, files, directories, and browser extensions | 18:55 |
| streulma | the problem is, Ubuntu on a Macbook Pro, is booting in SATA IDE mode in Bootcamp boot, that's bad on an SSD... ( jhutchins ) | 18:56 |

| larry_ | im not an expert but i believe if you were installing a new os you would have to reload your programs | 19:02 |
| Beldar | jost, This a 10.04 desktop? How did you use the live cd for the grub install? | 19:03 |
| jost | Beldar: yes, desktop | 19:03 |
| roald | reddane: lubuntu is just ubuntu with LXDE instead of Unity - so if you just install the environment instead of the OS, you'll keep all programs etc | 19:03 |
| Beldar | jost, How did you use the live cd for the grub install? 10.04 is end of life you know this? | 19:04 |

| Beldar | jost, Ah a server, I'm trying to tell if you install grub correctly, can we address that? | 19:05 |
| jost | But they gave me disk images for the partitions (including swap...), and I had to recombine them into a real disk image, but that doesn't have a bootloader of course. I'm trying to fix that | 19:05 |
| roald | reddane: Mostly yes - Unity is a pretty demanding on your system's resources | 19:06 |
| reddane | alright. sounds good. thanks, roald! | 19:06 |

| jost | Beldar: looks good :-) | 19:11 |

| AlanBell | not Ubuntu, so we don't support that here, however as a special treat I have one in front of me so I will give it a go | 19:39 |
| sudormrf | AlanBell: is it? It's all setup as EXT4, but I have a feeling you mean something else. | 19:39 |

| aberrant | hi all | 19:40 |
| Rajvi | Hello Everyone, Could anyone tell me how to install a .tar.gz package tryingg to install flash player for Firefox. | 19:40 |
| aberrant | My new vps is installed with 11.10, and I'd like to get to 13. How can I do it via the net / command line? | 19:40 |
| Beldar | Rajvi, flash is in the ubuntu repos. | 19:41 |
| Rajvi | Is It?? In Restricted-Extras Packages u mean?? | 19:41 |
| OerHeks | aberrant, check your VPS support pages howto get rid of that old unsupported 11.10 | 19:41 |
| aberrant | OerHeks: no support - a friend's machine. | 19:42 |
| AlanBell | sudormrf: works fine on the pi, I thought the SD card might have something to do with it, or how ext4 was configured, anyhow, you need to go to #raspberrypi to ask there I think | 19:42 |
| aberrant | OerHeks: is there a way to use apt to upgrade? | 19:42 |
| Beldar | Rajvi, It is in that package yes, there is the flashplugin-installer | 19:42 |
| Beldar | as well | 19:42 |
| sudormrf | thanks AlanBell | 19:43 |
| sudormrf | how about any samba/cron masters? | 19:43 |
| Rajvi | Installing Restriceted Extras | 19:43 |

| OerHeks | aberrant, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PreciseUpgrades | 19:43 |
| aberrant | thanks | 19:43 |
| aberrant | is there a way just to do a clean install via the shell? | 19:43 |
| Rajvi | Found the Installer!! :) Thanks Beldar! | 19:44 |
| aberrant | I'm thinking that might be easier. | 19:44 |
| Demon_Jester | Hey guys, I was looking at LAME man page, and I saw the option for gapless encoding.. I was wanting to know I am doing audio stream (from microphone) over my network, and I would like to encode the audio, and I didn't see a duration option or similar on the man page to set a time how long I want to do gapless encoding, any suggestions? | 19:44 |
| OerHeks | aberrant, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PreciseUpgrades#Network_Upgrade_for_Ubuntu_Servers_.28Recommended.29 to be exact | 19:44 |
| Beldar | Rajvi, No problem, the chrome browser has a more up to date flash if needed built in. | 19:44 |
| AlanBell | sudormrf: is the samba/cron stuff on Ubuntu? | 19:44 |
| Rajvi | Naah, I know that I like FOSS so the natural choice is FF ;) | 19:45 |
| aberrant | ok | 19:46 |
| Beldar | Rajvi, Me to. | 19:46 |
| aberrant | OerHeks: thanks. Doing the do-release-upgrade now | 19:46 |
| sudormrf | AlanBell: it is :) | 19:46 |
| sudormrf | AlanBell: This is the problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7017744/ | 19:47 |
| AlanBell | ok, carry on then sudormrf, I am not a samba expert, I just didn't want you to waste your time if it was on an environment people here can't easily reproduce :) | 19:47 |
| sudormrf | AlanBell: I am trying to have cron run a certain greyhole task and it fails. I can run it from the terminal just fine. | 19:47 |
| sudormrf | AlanBell: the PATH variables are right, so I am at a loss. I have talked with the GH developer who seems to think this is not a GH issue. I may be looking at this thing the wrong way in thinking that the cron task isn't executing, but now that I think about it again, I think it is executing but it is failing for some other reason. | 19:48 |
| AlanBell | sudormrf: cron tasks run with a very limited environment, such as PATH and so on | 19:50 |
| adriana | bonsoir la room ! | 19:50 |
| adriana | j'ai un petit souci suite à une mise à jour, mon server X est down et je ne sais pas comment m'y prendre pour le fixer | 19:51 |
| sudormrf | AlanBell: that was one of the first things I was asked to verify. the PATH variables. but they match | 19:51 |
| adriana | quelqu'un aurait une idée ? | 19:51 |

| sudormrf | AlanBell: at least I think they do. I ran a cron task from the root crontab. The task was "export" and I had that save to a file. I looked at the variables and they looked ok as the command I am executing is in /usr/bin | 19:51 |
| adriana | ubottu: ok thx ;) | 19:52 |
| ubottu | adriana: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:52 |
| AlanBell | sudormrf: yeah, I am at a loss too, the files look like they line up though I am not familiar with greyhole and very rusty with samba | 19:54 |

| adriana | I have a pb with server X, does anyone would have any clues for fixing it ? | 19:57 |
| sudormrf | bekks: I used "which greyhole" to find out where the command was and the location that comes up is already defined in both the root PATH and standard user PATH variables | 19:57 |
| bekks | adriana: Depends on the problem you have. | 19:57 |

| sudormrf | bekks: I also then tried executing the command from that path manually and it worked. | 19:59 |
| aberrant | my upgrade is going 11.10 -> 12.04 -> 12.10 -> ... ? | 19:59 |
| geirha | sudormrf: e.g. env -i greyhole basically runs it with an empty environment | 20:00 |
| sudormrf | geirha: oh. let me check | 20:00 |
| adriana | bekks how do I restart my x server to see the error message | 20:00 |
| Fevix | Should I be worried about that error or no? | 20:00 |
| bekks | adriana: sudo service lightdm restart | 20:01 |
| geirha | aberrant: upgrade to 12.04 LTS, then wait until april, when 14.04 LTS gets released. You can upgrade directly between LTS releases. | 20:01 |
| adriana | ok I try this | 20:01 |
| aberrant | geirha: I want 13.10. | 20:01 |
| sudormrf | geirha: using env -i greyhole does work | 20:02 |
| bekks | aberrant: Yes. 10.10 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 -> 12.04 -> 12.10 -> 13.04 -> 13.10 | 20:02 |
| aberrant | bekks: perfect. thanks. | 20:02 |
| aberrant | though I don't know why I couldn't do 12.04 -> 13.04 -> 13.10 | 20:02 |
| bekks | aberrant: A new installlation will be much quicker. | 20:02 |
| geirha | sudormrf: Yet the exact same command (without env -i of course) fails when run from cron? that seems odd | 20:03 |

| basketball | bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7018300/ | 20:55 |

| usr13 | demianb: How long ago did you install? | 20:58 |
| skinux | How do we remove PPAs?? | 20:58 |
| demianb | Personally I suspect there is an issue with the graphics driver. Although I was able to bring up Terminal (and mouse cursor also shows on the black screen). | 20:59 |
| basketball | my laptop doesnt see dvds in the dvd drive | 20:59 |
| bekks | skinux: Using ppa-purge | 20:59 |
| hitsujiTMO | basketball: then maybe there's something wrong with the drive | 20:59 |
| demianb | About a month ago. Perhaps more. | 20:59 |
| ron1n | Hey guys, any VirtualBox users in here? Trying to configure a bridged network for a centos guest. I can never get Bridged to work on debian distros :/ | 20:59 |
| skinux | Thanks. | 20:59 |
| usr13 | demianb: Did you do any updates after install? | 20:59 |
| bekks | ron1n: Centos is no debian based. | 20:59 |
| ron1n | bekks, I mean, I can't get centos to work under an ubuntu host. | 20:59 |
| ron1n | with a bridged interface of course | 21:00 |
| awi29 | can someone explain how this is used? http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/asn1Decoding.1.html | 21:00 |
| bekks | ron1n: Create a vm, select "bridged" in the settings of the vm. If you have a problem configuring Centos, then please seek centos support. | 21:00 |
| usr13 | demianb: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 21:00 |
| demianb | Well, I was never prompted for updates before. Could that be because of basic user privileges on this user account? BUT, when I logged in as admin and I was staring at the black screen, an update prompt came up with 187MB of updates. First I dismissed it, later after I rebooted I decided to install them. But the screen is still black after login. | 21:01 |
| ron1n | bekks, My main question being there are two interfaces ubuntu made on it's own whim. lxbr0 and virbr0 | 21:01 |
| ron1n | should I be using these? | 21:01 |
| bekks | ron1n: Both interfaces do not have anything to do with virtualbox. | 21:01 |
| ron1n | bekks, Fair enough. So I should use my host interface then | 21:02 |
| usr13 | demianb: How do you function with the black screen? How do you bring up the apps you use? | 21:02 |
| bekks | ron1n: Of course. | 21:02 |
| demianb | usr13, I am logged in with a 2nd account now which works fine. | 21:02 |

| demianb | Ubuntu 13.10. | 21:05 |
| usr13 | Yes sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 21:05 |
| demianb | Okay, brb. Will probably have to reboot again to get back to login screen... | 21:05 |

| demianb | Or is there a keyboard shortcut to log-out? | 21:06 |
| BorisTAUbuntu | curl and libcurl are they different? | 21:06 |
| bekks | BorisTAUbuntu: Yes. | 21:06 |
| Seveas | BorisTAUbuntu: yes and no. Curl is an application and libcurl is a library used by other applications. They use the same code though. | 21:07 |
| usr13 | !nomodeset | demianb | 21:08 |
| ubottu | demianb: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 21:08 |
| BorisTAUbuntu | okay, well I have libcurl 7.32.0 installed but when running a command in terminal it says "configure: error: Missing required libcurl dev >= 7.18.2" | 21:08 |
| demianb | Hmm okay, will look into that. | 21:09 |
| bekks | BorisTAUbuntu: Install libcurl-dev | 21:09 |
| XMLnewbi | what is ntp? ntp git build-essential libssl-dev libdb-dev is returning command ntp not found, sudo apt-get install ntp didnt fix it | 21:09 |

| BorisTAUbuntu | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 21:10 |
| Seveas | BorisTAUbuntu: you'll need the libcurl4-gnutls-dev package (or nss-dev or openssl-dev, depends on which SSL library you want to use) | 21:10 |

| BorisTAUbuntu | right never mind Iḿ too hasty as treebeard used to say in lotr | 21:11 |
| XMLnewbi | right, but I want to install the right packages, and not track down apt-get versions of each. man not many google hits on what ntp is | 21:11 |
| bekks | XMLnewbi: Zillions of results. NTP stands for "network time protocol". | 21:12 |

| akaWolf | bekks: it's not that case | 21:36 |
| akaWolf | bekks: I know about sudo. | 21:36 |

| ejcweb | Seveas: I guess I won't be able to install pastebinit without being connected to my WiFi (unless I can set it up through the terminal) | 21:37 |

| akaWolf | bekks: it's not work! | 21:38 |
| Seveas | ejcweb: oh, with working network connection I meant up and running :) | 21:38 |

| Seveas | ejcweb: did you configure it before? (as in: if the gui were up and running, would it connect automatically?) | 21:38 |
| bekks | akaWolf: Then check why it is in use. "mount" should reveal it. | 21:38 |
| ejcweb | Seveas: No, not to this network. | 21:39 |
| akaWolf | bekks: it's not exist in "mount" | 21:39 |
| Seveas | ejcweb: hmm, that's going to make this slightly trickier. Can you plug in a network cable temporarily? | 21:39 |
| bekks | akaWolf: Then check using lsof or fuser. | 21:39 |
| LJSeinfeld | Seveas: You kinda lost me there... (still learning... probably forever.. ) | 21:39 |
| ejcweb | Seveas: I'll work out the network connection and get back to you. | 21:39 |
| akaWolf | bekks: it's just because there is exist /dev/mapper/sde1 | 21:39 |
| Seveas | LJSeinfeld: learning forever is what we all do :D | 21:39 |
| bekks | akaWolf: Thats not true. | 21:39 |
| Seveas | ejcweb: k | 21:39 |
| akaWolf | bekks: why? | 21:40 |
| bekks | akaWolf: You need to know whats using /dev/sde1 | 21:40 |
| akaWolf | hm | 21:40 |
| LJSeinfeld | lol -- well this one kinda went over my head... a lot of terminology in linux that doesn't always connect for me | 21:40 |
| BorisTheAnimal | so if windows have .bat files, what do linux have that would basically do the same, .sh? | 21:41 |
| akaWolf | bekks: sudo lsof /dev/sde1 | 21:41 |
| Seveas | LJSeinfeld: things like DISPLAY=:0.0 set environment variables. This specific one tells the cpmmand which display to use. There are similar variables for the DBUS session bus address, gnome session management and more. When SSH'ing in, these will be set to different things than in the GUI, you can copy these environment variables from existing GUI processes to make things like starting vino-server from an ssh'ed shell work properly | 21:41 |
| akaWolf | bekks: lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfsd-fuse file system /run/user/1000/gvfs | 21:41 |

| dhpiggott | akaWolf: what's the output of sudo dmsetup status? | 21:41 |
| Seveas | LJSeinfeld: and I needed to do this quite frequently, so I wrote that stealenv.py to automate it :) | 21:41 |
| LJSeinfeld | if I add --dislplay=:0.0 to the autostart command in lubuntu, will it likely start vino-server at boot? | 21:41 |
| akaWolf | dhpiggott: $ sudo dmsetup status | 21:42 |
| akaWolf | sde2: 0 15374205 linear | 21:42 |
| akaWolf | sde1: 0 144522 linear | 21:42 |
| LJSeinfeld | so -- you call the python script first? Or are you calling it at boot / login? | 21:42 |
| dhpiggott | akaWolf: i think linear means you have LVM of some sort setup | 21:43 |
| niekonezinantis | Hey, i am trying to install Ubuntu alongside with windows. Windows in on SSD, and i have HDD for my data. So i decided to shrink HDD. Now i am not sure what device should i choose for boot loader? Should i select SSD? | 21:43 |

| bekks | juniour: Did you even take the time to look into the pastebins? | 22:10 |
| akaWolf | it's LVM | 22:10 |
| bekks | akaWolf: How do you know? | 22:10 |
| juniour | if they are not mounted then who is using that | 22:11 |
| bekks | juniour: Thats the question to be answered. | 22:11 |
| juniour | try to remove and reinsert it | 22:12 |
| juniour | its not lvm as i dident see in system column lvm | 22:13 |
| akaWolf | bekks: because after "sudo dmsetup remove_all" it's work, but after making partition and maybe after kpartx it's exist in "dmsetup status" again. it's not expected... | 22:14 |
| juniour | if this was lvm in system column you will get linux lvm | 22:14 |
| akaWolf | lvm only works with sde | 22:14 |

| === RickyB98 is now known as rickyb98 | ||
| awi29 | Seveas http://pastebin.com/6Uekczuz | 22:57 |
| Seveas | staticwarp: use a computer from this century. 512MB is pushing it, even for lubuntu. Besides, that p4 is eating power like a madman, buying a new pc will be cheaper :) | 22:57 |
| ejcweb | Seveas: Reinstalling would be fairly undesirable. In the worst case, I could do it - I presume that would keep my home directory around? (otherwise I could backup I guess since I do have terminal access). | 22:57 |
| === Guest95629 is now known as Noskcaj | ||
| staticwarp | Seveas: that is a great suggestion, but not an option at this time. :P | 22:57 |
| wafflejock | staticwarp: can you get to the terminal Ctrl+Alt+F1 | 22:58 |
| Seveas | ejcweb: it would not keep your homedirectory, a backup would be needed. Maybe try booting from a livecd first and see if that works. If it doesn't, your hardware is busted. If it does, a reinstall may be the simplest solution. | 22:58 |
| ejcweb | Seveas: Ok, I'll have a play around with reinstalling video drivers first, and the try the LiveCD route if I can find one. | 22:59 |
| Seveas | awi29: looks like you need to export from pkcs12 to pem first and then use the second command. the pkcs12 manpages tells you how | 22:59 |
| staticwarp | wafflejock: i'm unable to get to the terminal, the computer is unresponsive to keystrokes. | 22:59 |

| Dextralus | Hello. A recent update has caused a black screen bug on my laptop. Would anyone be willing to help me out? | 23:02 |
| wafflejock | staticwarp: not really sure what to tell yah, you can use right shift to get the GRUB menu to see if you can diagnose what's going on or use a liveCD but I'm not familiar with details of debugging the installation from a LiveCD | 23:03 |
| wafflejock | ejcweb: you probably need to actually go with the DVD or a bootable USB setup since I think all of the actual CD installations are only the minimal discs | 23:04 |
| staticwarp | wafflejock: thanks, someone here suggested on thursday that it may be a pae issue. will the command cat /proc/cpuinfo work in grub? i guess i should just try it lol | 23:04 |
| wafflejock | staticwarp: yeah not sure about that, I have found a PAE compatible minimal CD out there though | 23:05 |
| wafflejock | it may have been a slightly dated version like 12.04 though not sure | 23:05 |
| wafflejock | I believe I was warned about it not being a PAE install when I tried with other ISOs though | 23:05 |
| staticwarp | wafflejock: i'll give it a shot, thanks | 23:06 |
| wafflejock | er rather I think it's all non-PAE (physical address extension if I recall correctly) | 23:06 |

| Seveas | trinque: deja-dup uses duplicity, which in turn uses gnupg for encryption. So it's as safe as gnupg, which is considered pretty sage. | 23:33 |

| zaitzev | usr13: My /etc/hostname shows domainname, my /etc/hosts has a line like: 127.0.1.1 domainname.tld | 23:35 |
| SergeyServer | can somebody try to connect my pc and try to run this application? | 23:35 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: Is that what you want it to say? | 23:35 |
| Seveas | zaitzev: but what does the hostname command say? | 23:35 |
| SergeyServer | is this even possible? | 23:35 |
| zaitzev | usr13: To clarify, the above are examplified and not the ACTUAL names. | 23:35 |
| zaitzev | usr13: but you get the idea. | 23:35 |
| zaitzev | Seveas: it shows the old hostname I had. | 23:36 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: No I do not get the idea. You will have to set the hostname yourself, edit /etc/hostname | 23:36 |
| zaitzev | usr13: As I have done. | 23:36 |
| Seveas | zaitzev: and what are the old and new hostname? | 23:36 |
| usr13 | sudo hostname your-new-name | 23:37 |
| SergeyServer | actually I have no idea why I even ask here | 23:37 |
| usr13 | Seveas: He apparently doesn't want to tell us. | 23:37 |
| SergeyServer | I got never helped since 2009 and my first time use ubuntu... | 23:37 |
| usr13 | SergeyServer: What version of Ubuntu do you have installed? | 23:37 |
| SergeyServer | 12.04 ubuntu 64bit | 23:37 |
| zaitzev | usr13: rebooting now, let's see if my forgetting to do 'hostname name' was the snafu =) | 23:38 |
| Seveas | SergeyServer: that's because you don't seem to want to be helped. We ask for more information so we can try to help, yet you refuse to provide it. So you get ignored instead of helped as now you're only a nuisance. | 23:38 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: No, it will come back to you as you see in the file /etc/hostname | 23:38 |
| SergeyServer | why you refuse to logon onto my pc and see yourself? | 23:38 |
| SergeyServer | some packages are missing and thats the problem, probably, or I need to run it in other way | 23:39 |
| zaitzev | usr13: Yeah, and /etc/hostname contains the new I have set, e.g newname.com | 23:39 |
| SergeyServer | but I got no idea how to do it | 23:39 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: Ok, that should do it. | 23:39 |
| SergeyServer | and no friends or family | 23:39 |
| zaitzev | usr13: that's the thing, it didn't. | 23:39 |
| SergeyServer | I'm so lonely | 23:39 |
| Seveas | zaitzev: so what are the old and new name? | 23:40 |
| zaitzev | Seveas: Why is that relevant? oO | 23:40 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: Do you also see your new hostname across from 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts ? | 23:40 |
| Seveas | zaitzev: because I'm guessin that "newname" is nothing more than "oldname.domain" and you think that should work. | 23:40 |
| SergeyServer | I got guide how to make it to run | 23:41 |
| Seveas | zaitzev: but since I don't like to guess, I ask for information :) | 23:41 |
| SergeyServer | im just too newbie to linux | 23:41 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: As Seveas suggests, it is difficult to deal with hypothetical names | 23:41 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: ... it's too confusing ... | 23:42 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: He can tell you how to do it but with hypothetical names, it is too confusing. | 23:42 |
| Seveas | usr13: with hypothetical names we can only give hypothetical solutions :-) | 23:43 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: Let's say you want to have hostname of blackjack | 23:44 |
| zaitzev | Seveas & usr13: It has been changed now, I'm not quite sure what exactly did it, but it seems to be fixed. | 23:44 |
| usr13 | zaitzev: Ok. good.... | 23:44 |
| zaitzev | such a tiny, weird problem hehe | 23:44 |
| zaitzev | thank you both anyway! | 23:44 |
| usr13 | NP | 23:44 |
| Seveas | usr13: no blackjack, hold'em! | 23:44 |
| zaitzev | craps is best | 23:44 |
| usr13 | contrite | 23:45 |

| tizzyman | Hello all | 23:50 |
| Seveas | hello tizzyman, what can we help you with? | 23:50 |
| tizzyman | Could someone possibly help me with aircraft? I just installed ubuntu | 23:50 |
| usr13 | SergeyServer: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 23:50 |
| SergeyServer | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7019093/ | 23:51 |
| tizzyman | °aircrack | 23:51 |
| Seveas | !someone | tizzyman | 23:51 |
| ubottu | tizzyman: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 23:51 |
| tizzyman | Im not sure which drivers to get and how to actually install them | 23:52 |
| Seveas | SergeyServer: that's no huge error :) you merely need to install libgmp-dev | 23:52 |
| tizzyman | For my wifi adapter which is linksys600n v1 | 23:52 |
| tizzyman | It seems that the chipset is ralink | 23:52 |
| Seveas | tizzyman: afaik you only need to install the aircrack-ng package | 23:52 |
| SergeyServer | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7019102/ ok | 23:53 |
| SergeyServer | this is huge one | 23:53 |
| Dextralus | I am running ubuntu 12.04 on a laptop with ATI Radeon 5470. After an update this morning Ubuntu gives me a black screen after the loading screen. Using nomodeset still gives me the black screen. Would anyone be able to assist me with this? | 23:53 |
| SergeyServer | E: Unable to locate package libgmpdev | 23:54 |
| Seveas | SergeyServer: read my message again, you misspelled the name :) | 23:54 |
| Seveas | SergeyServer: also, don't do shit like that in /usr/src, you need to do this in your homedir. Wipe it from /usr/src and start from scratch in your homedir, that'll solve the permission error. | 23:54 |
| SergeyServer | ugrh | 23:55 |
| SergeyServer | it will be too hard to do | 23:55 |
| Seveas | well, do it anyway. This is wrong. | 23:55 |
| SergeyServer | this is how guide tells me | 23:56 |
| junknown | Is it common as a somewhat beginner linux user to be spending far more time downloading/configuring tools and downloading/configuring other tools in order to fix the other tools and thereby creating new problems that need new tools to be configured and fixed in an endless cycle rather than actually developing something cool? | 23:56 |
| SergeyServer | www.codelain.com/wiki/index.php?title=Manual_installation_(Linux) | 23:56 |
| Seveas | SergeyServer: then the guide is broken :) | 23:56 |
| SergeyServer | no im sure its not | 23:56 |
| Seveas | junknown: not quite. What are you trying to accomplish? | 23:57 |
| SergeyServer | damn | 23:57 |
| SergeyServer | if somebody could install it for me | 23:57 |
| SergeyServer | T_T | 23:57 |
| SergeyServer | I have already installed version | 23:58 |
| usr13 | SergeyServer: I think you should find a newer guide. (At the bottom of that page it says: "This page was last modified on 26 September 2010, at 13:01.") | 23:58 |
| SergeyServer | but it doesn't want to run | 23:58 |
| === xubuntu is now known as Guest6768 | ||
| SergeyServer | there's no better | 23:58 |
| junknown | seveas: Nothing in particular. It just seems that I can never ever get anything working quite right. | 23:58 |
| SergeyServer | I got files of newer bot | 23:58 |
| SergeyServer | it works on other guy server | 23:58 |
| SergeyServer | and it will work on my, if it's properly setup | 23:58 |
