jon__that makes sense because i am hooked up to an external monitor and it works fine00:31
jon__it's a thinkpad though and it was my first drop :(00:31

Pessimistpotential, go to various svns and check which code of line was introduced by whom. Git has a command just for that: git blame. If you don't trust ubuntu maintainers then you can install something like gentoo where you will *have* to compile and maintain everything yourself. Good luck.01:08

gandaliterHi. I'm looking for some help debugging a repeating crash on an Ubuntu server. I've been setting up postfix and dovecot, and occasionally when I connect to imap or smtp, the server crashes (responds only to pings). I haven't been able to find anything in the logs after rebooting, although I admit I don't know exactly where to look. Exceptions are sequences of '^@' chars in the logs occasionally. Where should I start looking?01:51
usr13_potential: Discuss it on #ubuntu-offtopic But if you have a problem with Ubuntu, use another OS.01:51
potentialOk. So far I've been told that if I have a problem with Ubuntu, I should use another OS.01:52
usr13_gandaliter: "Only to pings"?  It does not accept ssh connection?01:52
potentialNice.01:52
gandaliterusr13_: No, no ssh, no http, no imap etc. the existing ssh connections don't notice they're broken until they timeout a while later.01:53
gandaliterusr13_: In one case the filesystem was corrupted by the crash01:54
usr13_gandaliter: Sounds like some kind of sleep mode of some sort.  Well from what you just said, it may be that the HD is having problems....01:55
basketballrww,01:55
usr13_gandaliter: Check the hard drive health.01:55
basketballrww, http://askubuntu.com/questions/430110/two-keyboards-in-ubuntu-13-1001:55
gandaliterusr13_: it's a VPS, so I'd guess they're pretty much on top of that, and I'd imagine it's in hardware raid anyway.01:56
gandaliterusr13_: if it continues responding to ping that means that at least some of the networking stack, and thus some of the kernel, is still running, so it seems odd that I can't find any logs of anything. I guess if the filesystem crashes there's nowhere to write logs to01:57
usr13_gandaliter: Have you run a port scan against it?01:57
potentialAs I politely was told, I took my off-topic conversation to the off-topic channel.01:57
cueteEsotericForest: Rufus is working its magic, lets see if the bios will spit up ubuntu :D01:59
gandaliterusr13_: no, but I'd be very surprised if there'd be any response to anything except ping01:59
gandaliterusr13_: the crash only ever occurs while making a new connection using imap or smtp (or at least on nothing else that I've noticed), so I don't think it can be a random disk thing. The problem is mostly that I don't know how to track down what is causing it.02:01
profligacyHave you guys ever tried Ubuntu?02:02
profligacy* wrong window02:02
ldcicconianyone know how I can get my sound controls back in 13.10?02:02
usr13_gandaliter: Maybe it is a RAM problem.  YOu ever run top or htop on it while it's happening?02:02
Demon_JesterHey guys can anyone help me with my cronjob? (I current have it to execute shell script every 30 min like so, 0,30 * * * * sudo -s /freeupram.sh) I have a command inside my shell script that writes to a log on when the last time it executes, when I execute it with the exact same parameters as I gave cron it writes to log file but when cron executes it, it does not write to file.02:03
cueteugh, no dice.02:03

gandaliterusr13_: I haven't tried that. It's not that easy to reproduce the problem. What would I be looking for in htop? What kind of RAM problem would be triggered by the same thing each time?02:04
cueteEsotericForest: No dice, still playing with it.02:05
Demon_Jestersomsip: it executes everything in the shell script just fine except writing to the log (the command I have that need sudo -s is echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches, and it doesnt ask for a password and the command to write to a log doesnt even need sudo.)02:06
usr13_Demon_Jester: Change 0,30  to 3002:06

sunny_I have a old laptop with Pentium M processor.. the machine currently is running Xubuntu 12.0406:57
sunny_i want to upgrade it to 13.10 .. I was wondering if it is possible to modify the installation media/ISO to add a non-pae kernel?06:58
somsipsunny_: that question is essentially answered on that page I linked to.06:58
sunny_on that page they are using fake-pae06:58
sunny_What I want is to modify the ISO Image to add a nonpae kernel06:59
sunny_I want to know if it is possible if yes then how?06:59
somsipsunny_: it explains 3 currently supported options. You might find some other method elsewhere, but...<shrugs>07:00
sunny_ok.. thank you somsip07:00
sunny_Thank you for replying though!!07:01

sunny_Ben64, you are right!! but still I was wondering if at all that slipstreaming is possible..07:03

olalondeHi all. I have Ubuntu running on a machine with no keyboard/monitor. I would like to access the GUI of ubuntu over my LAN network. Which solution would give me the best performance? VNC maybe? I read an article about some corporate networks where they run all their machines in a VM data center and all their computers are "thin" clients.. what technology do they use to make it so that the speed/latency is very low when accessing a VM from the thin client?07:04
sunny_so if I compile my own kernel.. will it allow me to switch off PAE support?07:04
=== CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob

_nedrso if i open a new window... that displays fine... but if i minimise to desktop.. it still shows the window that was open07:06
sunny_Ben64, if I use the miniISO method and add fake-pae support, can I directly upgrade to 13.10 from 12.04 or first I have to upgrade to 12.10 then 13.04 and then to 13.10?07:07

hateballyanaz: polkit07:59
yanazthanks08:00
iptableGallomimia, did you create a fresh raid, or assemble/reassemble?08:04
Gallomimiafresh raid08:04
Gallomimiapreviously unraided disks. one was unformatted, two were hfs+08:04
iptableGallomimia, there are 2 ways to build e.g. RAID1. One way will reinitialize the RAID to "fresh" and another will "sync to first disk" to preserve data08:05
Eagleman7How do i fix this error on dovecot, it looks like it is a locking problem with nfs: files:  Mar  6 08:41:24 domain dovecot: imap(user@domain.com): Error: fcntl(read-lock) locking failed for file /var/mail/domain/user/.Eagleman7/dovecot.index: No locks available08:05
Gallomimiait's a raid5 btw08:05
Gallomimiait appears to be "recovering" the one that was never formatted or used previously08:05
iptableGallomimia, that's slightly different. Raid5 = each sector is XORd on 2 drives and XOR saved on third. you need that in order to have the RAID in sync08:06
Gallomimiasure that's great. except there's no data at all to put into sync08:06
iptableGallomimia, keep in mind that mdraid doesn't know, nor care, about the underlying filesystem08:06
iptableGallomimia, so it's not aware of such concepts as files and their data.08:06
Gallomimiaso it's going to do this no matter what's on the drives?08:07
iptableGallomimia, if you want something more intelligent than that, you have to either use ZFS or btrfs. These filesystems do their own RAID, which is data-aware.08:07
Gallomimiagreat i guess :/ i'll have a nice backup of my data that i already backed up and want to destroy08:07
Gallomimiai haven't put a filesystem on it either08:07
Gallomimiai just coupled them up in a raid with the "Disks" program08:08
iptableGallomimia, as stated, mdraid doesn't know, nor care08:08
Gallomimiai honestly just want to install ubuntu under LVM encrypted on the set08:08
Gallomimiadon't want it to write anything to the disks till i can get that figured out08:08
iptableGallomimia, so why don't you use the ubuntu partitioning app that's present in the installer, or gparted, to partition correctly?08:09
Gallomimiadoesn't seem to be working for me08:09
iptableGallomimia, works for everyone when correctly used actually. Disks may be trying to assemble the raid instead of creating.08:09
* iptable goes away. need to get ready08:09
Gallomimiaif you have any instructions you could link where i can follow along. everything i've found says "use the alternate installer" which i cannot find for 13.10. i assumed it was08:10
Gallomimiawell. now that the raid is built, maybe i'll see what's going on with the liveCD08:10

PlianceGallomimia: I have small swap partition installed, do you know if swapfile can be used along side or is it one of the other ?09:20
cfhowlettMaxFrames, live session may not work.  install it and then configure it.09:21
MaxFramesso I'll have to get a corded keyboard and mouse first?09:21
ikoniaWiz_KeeD: you can't jump partitions, space has to be next to the partition you want to resize09:22
cfhowlettMaxFrames, bluetooth is sweet but it isn't always plug and play.09:22
Wiz_KeeDikonia, exactly so, i'm doomed in this case?09:22
MaxFramesand then what will I have to do to configure it after I've installed it?09:22
GallomimiaPliance: you can have multiple swap files. i don't see the value in having two running at the same time. it's easier for me to turn one on and then the other off. keeps the math about how big it is easy09:22
ikoniaWiz_KeeD: depends if you can be bothered with the effort of multiple re-partitionings/resizings to get the free space to where you want it to be09:22
Wiz_KeeDBtw ikonia, I have the second partition mounted to /home and I would have no trouble removing that and making just one partition if possible09:22

Wiz_KeeDcan't I save my /home folder and delete the second partition as a whole and make just one partition?09:24

Wiz_KeeDI am not very certain how to proceed, I'm scared i'll break something and I can't boot anymore, or add my  /home folder back09:24
Wiz_KeeDDo you think you can guide me through the process please?09:25
ikoniaWiz_KeeD: what are you not clear on - you need to make free space,09:26

Wiz_KeeDhome folder and everything in it10:04
Wiz_KeeDIt has drwx------- but it's root root10:04

Wiz_KeeDikonia?10:08

Gallomimiaall files in the mounted filesystem? i thought you copied /home to the / partition?10:09
Wiz_KeeDSo checking the permissions in the mounted filesystem shows everything belongs to root, what would be the next step in this case?10:09
Wiz_KeeDI have booted to live-cd to check the theory that it cannot write in the /home folder due to permissions and this might not be the case as I said10:10

Wiz_KeeDGallomimia, thats what I've read on the forum as well10:24
Wiz_KeeDnow it's just two small things: 1. I had a mount set on my home folder (I think) that mounted my hdd from my hdd caddy and now it's gone 2.There is that small space left after re-partitioning, should I worry about it?10:25

tonythomasI am having trouble getting by wifi connected to Ap-mode wifi. Looks like my driver is not supported. Is there a fix ?10:26
Wiz_KeeDGallomimia, why is rsync used instead of simple copy? for that specific reason to preserve permissions?10:26
ActionParsniptonythomas: what wfi chip?10:26
MindSparkand then I had to create a mailbox for the user who has the crontab file10:26
ActionParsniptonythomas: what release of Ubuntu10:26
Gallomimiayeah10:26
ActionParsniptonythomas: details....10:26
Wiz_KeeDGallomimia, but copying did not mess the permissions on the files just the ownership right?10:26
MindSparkActionParsnip:  do I need to configure anything in cron for it to work without an MTA?10:26
GallomimiaWiz_KeeD: when you run a copy the files are read and then the user you're running as makes new files as itself and puts the data in them10:27
ActionParsnipMindSpark: not used it with mta to be honest10:27
Gallomimiahm. permissions are probably messed up too yes10:27

MindSparkActionParsnip: what's mts?10:27
ice9what should be the the partition table for the device to be used with bcache?10:28
Gallomimiaat the very least, YOUR user should be able to read and write to them all. you might have to check and see if there's any thing you had closed off to other users10:28
MindSparkI mean it just started working when I installed sendmail and then created an inboxfile10:28

ice9how to disable X forwarding in 13.10?11:57
deathmdHi! I've bought a new laptop (lenovo y510p with single gt755m) and I have problems with the graphics driver. Ubuntu 13.10 is updated and I've upgraded to the latest mainline kernel 3.13.5 and grub is set to nomodeset and Ubuntu is always running in software rendering mode. When I look into the Additional Drivers Tab no drivers are listed. I've tried to install nvidia-current from terminal -> blackscreen after login, tried nvidia-3311:58
deathmd1 from xorg-edgers ppa -> blackscreen after login. All I wanna have is that Ubuntu uses the integrated Intel GPU only with open source driver and the Nvidia GPU should be completely disabled by default as I've a Windows partition for gaming. Can anybody pls help?11:58
DJonessybariten: It is possible to connect to oldrelease.ubuntu (I forget the exact site), but I wouldn't connect to the internet with it.  Its going to be a couple of years behind for security updates and wouldn't get critical issues fixed11:58

the_stuntmanok if someone can help me out with this I'd greatly appreciate it, I'm going on working on this server for 12 hours. The server hosting company is refusing to help me with the issue because its unmanaged. But I'm locked out of the machine via putty somehow. But I can connect via there java console interface through DRAC.. which is terrible. I have the firewall down, ssh on, port 22 open even with fire wall down, I have my ssh key put13:04

DeusDeceitI have 4 partitions, one system reserved, swap, windows, ubuntu... they are all primary and i can't create a new one now :/ Anyone knows a solution to this? (I have 500 GB unallocated. waste!)13:07
Guest69847I think the ubuntu channel is the busiest channel of them all13:08
sunmoon_gr33n7007h: ok cool, to get to tty i just do ctrl+alt+f2 again right?13:08
rommeltgunr, i just googled apt-get jdb and that was amounst the results13:08
gr33n7007hsunmoon_, ctrl+alt+f113:08
llutzDeusDeceit: backup, remove the last partition before unallocated starts, create extended using full size, create logical drives, install again13:08
Guest69847Why does Econnman conflict with Network-Manager?13:09
tgunri was thinking jdb was a debugger13:09
DeusDeceitllutz, last partition is swap, is it easy to do what you said without re-installing ubuntu?13:09

rommelllutz, DeusDeceit how large is the swap partition13:10
DeusDeceitllutz, 4GB13:10
llutzDeusDeceit: you can re-create swap later as logical drive inside the extended partition13:10
DeusDeceitrommel, 4GB (my bad)13:10
=== versi is now known as kalkov
rommelDeusDeceit, so you will be able to have logical inside that 4gb extended13:11
llutzDeusDeceit: i'd use a live-cd to do that, but it would work from running ubuntu too13:11
rommeli would knoppix13:11
DeusDeceitllutz, if i do that, will ubuntu recognize it automatically? or i need to do more stuff than just that?13:11
llutzDeusDeceit: you will have to change swap UUID in /etc/fstab later13:12
the_stuntmanI'm going to attempt to do apt-get autoremove openssh-server and then reinstall it13:12
the_stuntmanmaybe that will fix my issues >.o13:12
DeusDeceitllutz, I will try that... if i get lost i'll be right back :P Thank you both llutz, rommel13:13
llutzDeusDeceit: so again: you remove your 4GB primary swap, create a new extended partition using all unallocated space, create then a new 4GB swap inside that extende13:13
llutzextended13:13
DeusDeceitllutz, yup, i got it13:13

EminentDomain2one13:54
xyzwhateverokk13:54
EminentDomain2like all OSes13:54
EminentDomain2well except win713:54
xyzwhateveri thought it used to be like one for swap one for boot one for stuff etc13:54
EminentDomain2cuz it always sets a 100mb partition for some stupid reason13:54
EminentDomain2best practice is to have a swap13:54
EminentDomain2but it's not required13:54
obionekenobiwindows?13:54
xyzwhateveri dont want13:54
DJonesxyzwhatever: Generally, a lot of people use 3 partitions, one for "/", one for "/swap" and one for "/home"13:55
EminentDomain2i would use a swap partition13:55
EminentDomain2why wouldnt you want one?13:55
obionekenobihow many ram do you have13:55
gartralEminentDomain2: swap is a good idea, though a partition isn't *needed* you can use a swapfile13:56
EminentDomain2but technically swapspace is on a file13:56
xyzwhateveri have 16gb ram no need for swap then or what13:56
EminentDomain2gartral yea13:56
obionekenobibetter to have it13:56
DJonesxyzwhatever: Do you use suspend?13:56
EminentDomain2i forgot that part... lol13:56
xyzwhatevermaybe yes DJones13:56
EminentDomain2also what do you plan to do with the machine13:56
EminentDomain216GB may not bbe as much as you'd think13:56
obionekenobi250gb is the best+13:57
EminentDomain2i've got 196GB and still use Swap13:57
gartralEminentDomain2: holey... wow13:57
DJonesxyzwhatever: Then you'll need swap at least as big your memory, if you've got 16Gb of data/apps in memory, when you use suspend/hibernate, it will need to save that to swap13:57
EminentDomain2but then again it's actually a vm assigned 32GB13:57
EminentDomain2so.... in actuality it's different13:57

mistawrightI need some advice. I had my server load jump up to a 100 last night for a quite a bit of time. How am I able to track down the cause of the load?14:21
gartralhey all, i have 2 seperate issues, both seem to be Ubuntu-specific, first off, I can't stably use a VM, though my hardware supports VT-d and other virtualisation subsystems.. second is when I reboot, my session is screwed, several apps load up and my monitors are overlapped, this only happens on my account14:22
VlperXmistawright, well what was running at the time?14:23
RubasHi guys, how do I make chown the www to a user?14:23
=== teobroma is now known as WMWARE
WMWAREhi all14:23
VlperXsomsip, anyway, # chmod 666 /dev/pty* fixed it14:23
VlperXi'll reboot and see how it goes14:24
somsipRubas: better to add the user to www-data group (more than likely)14:24
Rubashow do I do that somsip?14:24
somsipVlperX: unexpected, but glad you got the result14:24
VlperXwe'll see yet =P14:24
mistawrightVlperX, a web application I have up that allows customers to list items to amazon14:24
gartralRubas: sudo chown user:group14:24
VlperXsomsip, yep it's good after a rboot14:25
VlperXreboot, even14:25
VlperXthanks for your help14:25
llutzthe_stuntman: it's accepting ftp-connections, at least via telnet. check your client14:25
somsipRubas: this *may* be solution. Make sure it will do what you want first http://is.gd/JVOVQG14:25
somsipVlperX: your welcome14:25
somsip*'re14:25
the_stuntmanI'm using latest version of winscp14:25
mistawrightVlperX, the load doesnt seem to be caused by traffic as I had the site being monitored by nagios and nothing arose until 9 eastern time last night and the load jumped to 100 percent before subsiding 10 minutes later14:25
VlperXI painfully refrained from correcting you14:25
gartralRubas: or for more than one file, sudo chown -r user:group dir14:25
the_stuntmanmaybe I should try it on filezilla?14:25

the_stuntman1lutz getting the same thing on filezilla14:26
VlperXmistawright, that's a very difficult thing to troubleshoot if that's all the info you have. You'll just have to wait for it to happen again14:26
llutzthe_stuntman: "220 Multicraft 1.8.2 FTP server"  connects fine, try filezilla or any other ftp-client. not sure if winscp can use ftp at all14:26
VlperXas far as I know14:26
VlperXergh filezilla14:27
mistawrightill give amazon a call they may be able to shed light on the situation14:27
somsipmistawright: agreed with VlperX. Then can be tricky enough to track when they are happening as you watch. Unless you have a whole load of 'everything being logged all of the time' it might be very difficult to backtrack14:27
somsipmistawright: IO time if it's Amazon AWS with an EBS then...14:28
mistawrightsomsip, the root device is ebs14:29
somsipmistawright: check your disk R/W operations in the Monitoring tab on your Dashboard. The other graphs there can be helpful in identifying the issue, if not the direct cause. But EBS (stanard) max out at fairly low levels of IOPS if there is some heavy r/w access going on for some job14:30
gr33n7007hSo what's ubuntu's choice of media player now?14:30

mistawrightsomsip, it is running precise and no I wasn't aware of a php session cleanup bug14:32

somsipmistawright: read it from more than one place. Eg: http://is.gd/87P4Mo14:36
xyzwhateverVlperX: something about keyboard input program crashed, and then unrecoverable error starting desktop session14:37
craigbass1976xyzwhatever, you'll probably get the same error in Mint if you use the Ubuntu version.  Debian version is another can of worms.  I've been happy with both, just warning you.14:37
kudu91eh i liked gnome 2 better.....14:37
kudu91debian is a pain due to the wifi set-up though14:37
xyzwhateverthe problem is already why can you only enter a password for wlan during install and not a username? so i cannot connect to the internet14:38
kudu91yeah, i know14:38
craigbass1976kudu91, Oddly enough, I had an acer laptop where the ubuntu (and ubuntu mint) installs' wifi crapped out intermittently.  No such issue with the debian mint.14:38
kudu91i'm only speaking of the setting up of the wifi14:39

mikemonkgood morning guys17:46
sudormrfiter: that is logging them, but that is not what I am trying to accomplish.  fail2ban will not automatically re-add the banned IPs to the IPtables if a reboot happens.  that is why I want to have the IPs automatically added to a file.  I am assuming it will be a simple loop17:46
root4strange via root all works fine but why i get operation not permitted when i try to login with my user?17:46

jwashalso giving me a invalid user 'ubuntu' message18:14
jareddlcor does apt-get install automatically grabs latest version?18:15
jareddlci guess im asking is how apt-get works, does it grab the latest, or doers it grab the package from the repo of the current version?18:16
mgolischit only uses the configured repositories18:16
jareddlcif untouched, is it safe to say, it only grabs whatever is in that version repo? like if i have 12.04 and there a new package out in 13.10 apt-get install does it grabs 12.04? or 13.10?18:17
mgolischjareddlc: why do you think theres different versions?18:18
blahbersonjareddlc: your repos are specific to your Ubuntu version.18:18
jareddlcmgolisch: :( im just curious as im new18:18
mgolischjareddlc: it only grabs stuff from the repository for your version18:19
jareddlcthx blahberson,18:19
bbaaxxjareddlc: apt-get will bring the latest version found in all the repos it has available18:19
jareddlcso i just need to add 13.10 or whatever versions repo to it?18:19
bbaaxxjareddlc: have you noticed that some repos end with something like Saucy/saucy18:20
mgolischno you install from 13.1018:20

=== CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away
bbaaxxjareddlc: That means that apt will youse the latest version for the saucy distribution18:20

BaribalHi. I'm i18n/l10n-ing a program. I created de.mo and en.mo, and linked them in de/LC_MESSAGES/ and en/LC_MESSAGES/ in my programs root dir, respectively. I expected that upon the next program start, my gettext calls would use the translated strings, but I only got the original strings instead. Am I using the system wrong?18:36
bbaaxxBeginnerr: have you checked BIOS and/or forced booting from the USB ?18:37
liz4rdsee i upgraded ubuntu and grub ate the config file18:37
liz4rdi think grub has a bug18:38

davisonbbaaxx: I am looking to run chrome from unity or synapse.  Getting 2 entries.  1 is Google Chrome, another is "fortranMods - Google Chrome".  Searched my *.desktop files and can find no duplicate or faulty entries18:52
gr33n7007hliz4rd, go suck a dummy18:52
ActionParsnipliz4rd: not seen a single question, I even asked you if you had one18:52
davisonbbaaxx: both run and launch chrome, but it always has the fortranMods prefix.18:52
liz4rd0days lately had/haz/have?18:53
bbaaxxdavison: ok, so you are talking about menu entries ? In the dash in unity for example ?18:53
davisonbbaaxx: yes.18:53
bbaaxxdavison: have you tried alacarte ?18:53
ActionParsnipliz4rd: can you please ask a full question in plain english giving as many details as possible. Thank you18:53
bbaaxxdavison: sudo apt-get install alacarte18:54
bbaaxxdavison: is a menu manager, there you can probably remove the faulty entry18:54
davisonbbaaxx: Have used alacarte before to modify Gnome menu indicator.  No difference.18:54
liz4rdyes how can i support ubuntu?18:55
davisonbbaaxx: entries don't show up in gnome app indicator, but DO show in unity dash18:55

Jordan_Uliz4rd: Filing detailed and clear bug reports.18:57
BeginnerI am back so soon... not because Im completely new to this kind of thing... i swear...... sigh.. how do I partition or be able to select my SSD as the "root file system"18:58
wumboJordan_U: I've tried cp and rsync. It will hang up and sit there.18:58
bbaaxxdavison: have a look at /usr/share/applications/18:58
bbaaxxdavison: See if you find it there18:58
bbaaxxdavison: and remove it18:58
davisonbbaaxx: As i have said previously, I have grep'd and searched for chrome related desktop entries18:59
davisonbbaaxx: hence my comments on searching *.desktop files18:59
Jordan_Uwumbo: What happens if you just try to cp one small file? Does that succeed? Are there any io errors in "dmesg"?18:59
bbaaxxdavison: just wanted to make sure you had visually inspected the directory18:59
Abd_allatifi hear that hp notebooks have problems in WiFi and overheating. is that correct?19:00
wumboJordan_U: small files do seem to work, but i'm dealing with terabytes of data. dmesg says various things, usually ehci reset on the usb drive19:00
davisonbbaaxx: yes only a single entry19:00
bbaaxxotherwise you could find all desktop files doing something like cd / && find | grep .desktop19:01
wumbogparted shows the hfs+ partition, but has a red exclamation point saying that i'm missing hfsprogs, but i have all hfs modules installed19:01
Jordan_Uwumbo: I think that the 512 vs 4096 byte sector difference is a red herring. Is the USB drive spinning or SSD? Can you check the S.M.A.R.T status of both drives?19:02
wumboJordan_U: USB drive is mechanical, and is brand new.19:02
Jordan_Uwumbo: Do you have the package "hfsprogs" installed? The usespace tools and kernel modules are two different things.19:02
wumboJordan_U: I used apt-get install hfsprogs. Is there something else I'm missing>19:03

luigihsoh ok23:50

bekksluigihs: _read_ the article, dont search for download links.23:51
skayhi, how can I automate setting locale for an install? I have a script that provisions a vagrant image23:52
bekksluigihs: " Xorg driver is xserver-xorg-video-intel." So you can do: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel23:52
skayI want to be able to set up an image and specify the local, and I only know how to run the command that gives people an ncurses menu23:52
luigihsokk thanks23:53
luigihssorry for bother u but I have problem with the mouse as well23:54
humbaghi, after a successful chroot to run update-grub, I exited, unmounted the bound virtual filesystems, then removed the mount-point, without umounting the partition.  I stopped the removal quick as but too slow. Now when I mount the partition from a live usb, it looks normal except /bin is not there.  What can I do?23:54
luigihslike I cant use the scroll down23:54
luigihsthat is integrated with my laptop23:54

daftykinshumbag: so you ran "rm /mnt" ?23:57
humbagrm -r /media/sda5 actually, notso daftykins23:58
humbagi'm gonna make myself an idiot hat for this23:58
daftykinshumbag: that was a highly curious move. ok, setup a VM with the same version, fully update it, install packages you have that aren't on as default, then copy the missing /bin over preserving permissions23:59
