| vergara | i'm having a problem. xrandr for some reason is detecting 2 monitors even though i only have one and ubuntu is extending my desktop across both monitors using the non-existent one as primary. How can I fix this to only use one monitor? | 00:01 |

| bunjee | joshua33 - did you get a reply? | 00:02 |
| bunjee | nobodys chatting with anyone, hunh? | 00:04 |
| seednode | I only step in and help where I can | 00:04 |
| seednode | And some things, I have little or no experience in; I leave those for others | 00:05 |
| godgodgodgo | Hey, does anyone know how I can download all the directories and files from an ftp server onto a server? I need to transfer my files and my old host is being a dick. | 00:05 |
| mojtaba | Hi, I make an external hard drive with my laptop's hard drive and now I want to format it, and it gives me error formatting. (It was fully encrypted when it was in my laptop.) Do you know what should I do? | 00:07 |
| haT | i'll figure it out | 00:07 |
| seednode | mojtaba, well | 00:07 |
| seednode | What was it encrypted with | 00:07 |
| seednode | Was it using HDD password in BIOS? | 00:07 |
| seednode | Or an OS utility? | 00:07 |
| mojtaba | seednode: default ubuntu;s encryption | 00:07 |
| seednode | Now, I'm not sure how Ubuntu's encryption works | 00:07 |
| rww | it wouldn't affect formatting a hard disk. odd. | 00:08 |
| rww | mojtaba: what error? | 00:08 |
| bunjee | anyone out there no anything about printing problems? | 00:10 |
| vergara | sorry, if someone sent me a message previously, please resend it | 00:10 |
| kostkon | details ! bunjee | 00:10 |
| kostkon | :/ | 00:11 |
| mojtaba | seednode: I don | 00:11 |
| seednode | !details | bunjee | 00:11 |
| ubottu | bunjee: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 00:11 |
| mojtaba | I don't know the pass of the bios | 00:11 |
| us`0gb | In Python, printing problems is as easy as `print "problems"`. | 00:11 |
| seednode | mojtaba, so, wait | 00:11 |
| seednode | It was removed from a laptop which had a bios hdd password? | 00:11 |
| seednode | And you don't know that pass? | 00:11 |
| bunjee | hey - kostcon - need to install hp device manager for Trusty tahr - can't figure it out.... | 00:11 |
| us`0gb | I'v actually never managed to print from Ubuntu. | 00:11 |
| mojtaba | rww: I just closed it. let me try to format it again | 00:12 |
| isasha | The space key on my keyboard stopped responding guys | 00:12 |
| isasha | It still works in tty, but not in the actual session | 00:12 |
| isasha | Just blinks the cursor every time I push it. | 00:12 |
| isasha | I googled the issue and this seems to be very similar, but alas I do not see a solution that fits my scenario : | 00:13 |
| mojtaba | rww: seednode: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7122796/ | 00:13 |
| isasha | http://askubuntu.com/questions/8478/what-is-causing-my-spacebar-to-randomly-stop-working | 00:13 |
| mojtaba | This is the error I am getting | 00:13 |
| bunjee | kostkon - sorry - I spelled it wrong | 00:13 |
| seednode | Yep | 00:13 |
| seednode | mojtaba, so, it WAS removed from a computer with BIOS HDD password | 00:13 |
| seednode | ? | 00:13 |
| seednode | The input/output error could be caused by the drive being in non-writable mode | 00:14 |
| seednode | I've had that happen with drives removed from a laptop where they were set to require password to boot | 00:14 |
| mojtaba | seednode: Yes | 00:14 |
| bunjee | kostkon - need help installing HP device manager for my Photosmart 7200 trust tahr is my OS | 00:14 |
| seednode | And only way I've personally fixed is by finding that password, typing it in, and then removing in BIOS | 00:14 |
| mojtaba | seednode: so, what should I do? | 00:14 |
| kostkon | bunjee, what exactly? just describe your problem in more detail | 00:14 |
| seednode | If you don't know the password, and can't easily find it | 00:14 |
| seednode | I'm not sure I can help, since as far as I'm aware the drive is now non-writable | 00:15 |
| bunjee | trusty tahr | 00:15 |
| mojtaba | seednode: I know the password, but no where it asks for it | 00:15 |
| seednode | Even lowlevel formats and wiping didn't fix for me | 00:15 |
| seednode | mojtaba, hm | 00:15 |
| mojtaba | seednode: Where should I enter password? | 00:15 |
| seednode | Do you have the laptop it was pulled from | 00:16 |
| seednode | If so, put it back in there and try | 00:16 |
| bunjee | kostkon - I want all my functionality to work on my HP Photosmart 7250 scan, fax etc. | 00:16 |
| kostkon | bunjee, first of all, try installing the hplip gui, see if that satisfies your needs https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/hplip-gui/ | 00:16 |
| mojtaba | seednode: I should try to do what? (what if I don't have the laptop? | 00:16 |
| bunjee | kostkon - will do | 00:16 |
| seednode | Well, as I said, I don't personally know of a way to fix it if you don't have the laptop | 00:17 |
| seednode | But someone else here might have a more in-depth knowledge of BIOS passwords and drive encryption | 00:17 |
| ki7rw | anyone know why the webmin postfix module won't display ALL of the email? i just changed hard drives after backing up the old one and then restored the /var/mail - was ok until new mail came in and now the old mail doesn't appear even though the users OLD mail is still in /var/mail - did i explain that well? | 00:17 |
| mojtaba | seednode: ok, thanks | 00:18 |
| mojtaba | Hi, I make an external hard drive with my laptop's hard drive and now I want to format it, and it gives me error formatting. (It was fully encrypted when it was in my laptop.) Do you know what should I do? http://paste.ubuntu.com/7122796/ | 00:18 |
| bunjee | kostkon - doesn't look like it's available yet. | 00:19 |
| kostkon | bunjee, what version of ubuntu are you on | 00:19 |
| bunjee | trusty tahr beta | 00:21 |
| douglas | I cant get my printer to work and am unable to download adobe flash. New user. | 00:21 |
| bunjee | kostkon - trusty tahr | 00:21 |
| Jeckidy | I can't find an esperanto input for Ubuntu. Didn't there used to be one? I installed it as a language option in the language settings panel but dont see any come up to add as an IME | 00:21 |
| kostkon | bunjee, #ubuntu+1 is the channel for trusty | 00:22 |
| kostkon | !trusty | bunjee | 00:22 |
| ubottu | bunjee: Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) will be the 20th release of Ubuntu. See the announcement at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1295 for more info. support in #ubuntu+1 | 00:22 |
| rypervenche | mojtaba: YOu are trying to make a file system on the entire disk. You need to first create an NTFS type partition on the disk. | 00:22 |
| mojtaba | rypervenche: I have tried to format it as NTFS, but it did not worked, and I get the same error. | 00:23 |
| Beldar | douglas, Install ubuntu-restrictred-extras for flash other codecs, and ms font. Open printers and search for driver or accept what's found | 00:23 |
| rypervenche | mojtaba: Let's go into PM | 00:23 |
| bunjee | ubottu - thank you - I will read | 00:23 |
| mojtaba | rypervenche: what is PM? | 00:23 |
| ubottu | bunjee: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:23 |
| douglas | Beldar i dont know how to do that. Rookie lol | 00:24 |
| kostkon | douglas, what's your printer and why can't you get it to work. provide us with more details | 00:24 |
| kostkon | douglas, use the software centre to install software | 00:24 |
| bunjee | ubottu - alright - I'm not a bot either... | 00:25 |
| ubottu | bunjee: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:25 |
| rypervenche | mojtaba: A private message. | 00:25 |
| douglas | kostkon Dell photo 924 it shows it is loaded but does not respond | 00:25 |
| kostkon | douglas, http://askubuntu.com/a/134216/1651 i believe canon provides drivers for ubuntu/debian on their site | 00:27 |
| douglas | kostkon it is a dell | 00:27 |
| kostkon | douglas, it seems that dell printers are rebranded canon, samsung etc printers | 00:29 |
| nobitanobi | hi guys, how do I find where the home directory for a specific user is? | 00:30 |
| daftykins | nobitanobi: it's not /home/$user ? | 00:30 |
| daftykins | i feel like that was a trick question... | 00:30 |
| nobitanobi | nop | 00:31 |
| kostkon | douglas, have you alredy tried to add it as a new printer in your printer settings | 00:31 |
| seednode | nobitanobi, how did you add the user? | 00:31 |
| deezed | hello guys! I have this friend here who has a very strange problem. When she press the space bar instead of a space, appears a dot. Have you ever seen that??? Do you know how to solve it? | 00:31 |
| seednode | If you used useradd, and forgot the -m switch, it didn't make one | 00:31 |
| seednode | deezed, she might have selected the wrong keyboard map when installing | 00:32 |
| nobitanobi | seednode: my server company did... | 00:32 |
| deezed | seednode: no, I installed the linux for her, and it was all ok. It happened some days ago. | 00:32 |
| deezed | seednode: anyway, is there any keyboard map which the space is a dot? | 00:32 |
| nobitanobi | So, I guess I want to change the home directory for this user. What would be the command? | 00:32 |
| seednode | deezed, I haven't memorized every map, but was just a suggestion | 00:33 |
| deezed | seednode: ok, thanks. do you know the command to check which keyboard map is she using? | 00:33 |
| captainm | Greetings! I am relatively new to Ubuntu/Linux in general, though some aspects aren't too difficult of a curve for me, except for one nagging bit of aesthetics...this panel at the very top of the screen that contains my clock and window title on maximized windows is quite unpleasant for me. Is there a way I can put this bar at the bottom of the screen? | 00:35 |
| captainm | I can't manage to move it for the life of me. | 00:36 |
| kostkon | captainm, nope | 00:36 |
| Trfsrfr | Douglas are you still here? - Brad | 00:36 |
| douglas | kostkon it shows up in my printers with a green check but it still wont print | 00:36 |
| captainm | Damn. | 00:36 |
| Trfsrfr | Ah I see you are. Cool. | 00:36 |
| douglas | brad yes | 00:36 |
| Trfsrfr | Hey i'm Trfsrfr here! | 00:36 |
| deezed | captainm: you know you can try other desktops instead of Unity, right? There are many of them which you can do such of thing | 00:37 |
| deezed | Does anyone know how to remap one single keyboard key? Space instead of dot? | 00:37 |
| Beldar | douglas, If you see a app name "ubuntu-restrictred-extras" it will be in the ubuntu software center. | 00:38 |
| captainm | deezed: This is where my knowledge of Ubuntu stops. Does this include reformatting my hard drive and installing a new OS? Or is this just a frontend for the Ubuntu OS that I'm just slapping on top of what is currently installed? | 00:38 |
| kostkon | douglas, what are you trying to print | 00:38 |
| kostkon | douglas, and how | 00:38 |
| Beldar | douglas, Cept for the correct spelling, "ubuntu-restricted-extras" | 00:39 |
| deezed | captainm: you dont have to reinstall it. Its a frontend, I think you can call it like that. I call it desktop. | 00:39 |
| captainm | Would you mind pointing me in the direction of where I might acquire such desktops? | 00:39 |
| deezed | captainm: and you're not gonna slap it on top, exactly, you are just going to install it on the side of your unity | 00:40 |
| Trfsrfr | Douglas is trying to print the test page | 00:40 |
| captainm | Fair enough. | 00:40 |
| captainm | I am still learning, pardon my ignorance. | 00:40 |
| douglas | i am trying to print the test page first | 00:40 |
| Trfsrfr | lol | 00:40 |
| Trfsrfr | I see you're getting the goods. I'm gonna go make dinner, good luck. | 00:41 |
| Proshot | i get error message when i give lsusb unable to initialize libusb: -99 anybody any idea? | 00:43 |

| speckle | man, is anyone else super excited about having kernel 3.13 in ubuntu 14.04?? I am thinking of switching back to ubuntu for the superfast open source AMD graphics once I build an AMD rig | 00:53 |
| seednode | speckle, you could always upgrade kernel yourself ;) | 00:54 |
| seednode | I... think? Someone wanna confirm that? | 00:54 |
| speckle | I'm worried about stability, though. Stock kernel makes me worry less | 00:54 |
| SchrodingersScat | seednode: you can do what you want, ubuntu isn't your mother | 00:54 |
| seednode | I suppose | 00:54 |
| seednode | SchrodingersScat, just making sure; if Poettering has his way, eventually it might try to replace her though | 00:55 |
| Ziber | Any idea why Chrome would suddenly stop being able to load URLs? Firefox works fine... Uninstalling/reinstalling Chrome seems to have had no effect. | 00:57 |

| Umeaboy | Hi! | 00:57 |
| Umeaboy | I'm currently running Ubuntu 13.10 as host-OS and I'm following this guide [ http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_p1 ] to build CM 11 from source which below the needed deps have a link to more needed deps to build the Linux environment. The problem is that the instructions doesn't apply for 13.10. What should I do? | 00:58 |
| SchrodingersScat | Ziber: Did you check the proxy settings? | 00:58 |
| Ziber | seednode: I mean, yeah. The refresh button has no effect either. | 00:58 |
| seednode | And ctrl+r or whatever clearing cache doesn't either? | 00:58 |

| Ziber | yeah | 01:02 |
| kostkon | Ziber, just checking | 01:02 |

| foamyys | Well I just installed Ubuntu 13.10 today. I have a rat 7 mouse that is having some compatibility issues. | 01:07 |
| foamyys | Basically, it will randomly stop letting me click on windows I open | 01:07 |
| foamyys | (gedit:2258) | 01:08 |
| foamyys | It says in my terminal Could not load gedit repository | 01:08 |
| foamyys | and it also say my user in not root! | 01:09 |
| kostkon | !root | foamyys | 01:09 |
| ubottu | foamyys: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 01:09 |
| foamyys | I am brand new, I don't even really know what root is. I am just trying to get my drivers/software updated, and it is impossible without fixing my mouse first | 01:10 |
| kostkon | foamyys, what are you trying to install | 01:10 |
| kostkon | foamyys, why are you using the terminal then | 01:10 |
| foamyys | Right now, trying to get compatibility for a rat 7 mouse | 01:10 |
| foamyys | I couldnt find drivers online | 01:10 |
| kostkon | foamyys, so im guessing you are following this? https://fcns.eu/2011/04/01/cyborg-rat-7-mouse-under-linux/ | 01:11 |
| daftykins | foamyys: your first Linux lesson for the day - you don't install drivers like Windows :) | 01:11 |
| kostkon | foamyys, yes give the command sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and when it asks for a password give it your password | 01:12 |
| foamyys | LOL, I'm failing the lesson pretty hard right now. Kostkon, yes that is what I am doing | 01:12 |
| foamyys | ok, I had to restart to reset the broken windows | 01:13 |
| foamyys | kostkon: i got (gedit:2193): WARNING**: Could not load gedit repository: Typelib file for namespace 'GtkSource", version '3.0' not found | 01:17 |
| foamyys | and there is an IBUS-WARNING and a Gtk-Warning under that | 01:17 |
| kostkon | foamyys, ignore the warnings | 01:17 |
| kostkon | foamyys, did the gedit window show up | 01:18 |
| foamyys | yes, the white one | 01:18 |
| foamyys | it says xorg.conf at the top | 01:18 |
| === duoi_afk is now known as duoi | ||
| kostkon | foamyys, ok, now do the rest | 01:18 |
| foamyys | So what do I do when it is typed into the xorg.conf | 01:22 |
| kostkon | foamyys, have you pasted the text? then save the file, close gedit and then restart | 01:22 |
| === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon | ||
| foamyys | I had to type all of it lol, What is a keyboard shortcut for save, as i can't use my mouse for it | 01:23 |
| kostkon | foamyys, CTRL+S | 01:24 |
| kostkon | foamyys, ie ctrl and S combo | 01:24 |
| kostkon | foamyys, then ctrl + Q to close gedit | 01:24 |
| foamyys | i got a gtk warning, Calling Inhibit failed GDBus.error | 01:25 |
| kostkon | foamyys, ignore all that | 01:25 |
| sydney | will Lubuntu trusty be suported for 5 years? | 01:25 |
| rww | sydney: 3 years | 01:26 |
| foamyys | That code did not work for me. I am able to open the software center, but I still can't navigate it or close it. | 01:29 |
| foamyys | Is there anything else we can try? | 01:29 |
| kostkon | foamyys, did you reboot the machine | 01:30 |
| foamyys | Yes, I did. | 01:30 |
| kostkon | foamyys, ok | 01:31 |
| kostkon | foamyys, this is a better guide http://delightlylinux.wordpress.com/2012/03/07/using-the-cyborg-r-a-t-7-with-ubuntu/ | 01:33 |
| foamyys | Any ideas, kostkon? | 01:34 |

| foamyys | didnt see it in chat | 01:34 |
| misingnoglic | Hi, I'm trying to get my computer to connect to wireless networks but that doesn't seem to be an option in the connecting area, how do I enable that? | 01:37 |
| kostkon | foamyys, you might need to change the matchproduct. see the "update" section. try giving: lsusb in your terminal to find out what's product id of your mouse | 01:37 |

| metasansana | Is there a purpose for this recursion? http://tt.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu/ubuntu/ubuntu | 01:38 |

| foamyys | BUS 003 Device 002: ID 0738:1708 Mad Catz, Inc. | 01:41 |
| kostkon | misingnoglic, what options are available in the drop down menu then | 01:41 |
| kafee651 | hi | 01:41 |
| kafee651 | everybody | 01:41 |
| kostkon | foamyys, better try finding the full id string like i described above, in your logs | 01:41 |
| kostkon | kafee651, hi | 01:42 |
| foamyys | I am confused about searching logs for it | 01:42 |
| kostkon | foamyys, i gave you the commands to use | 01:42 |
| kostkon | foamyys, try these cat Xorg.0.log | grep -i mouse and dmesg | grep -i mouse | 01:43 |
| === Hornet- is now known as Hornet | ||
| kostkon | foamyys, sorry i meant cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i mouse | 01:43 |
| Hornet | having massive issues installing on an n54l server - currently, unable to boot normally after grub, but recovery mode boot works | 01:43 |
| Hornet | need assistance to un-screw it if possible | 01:44 |
| === guest-Jtk30F is now known as randbugspray | ||
| foamyys | ok so i typed that, save the xorg and restart? | 01:45 |
| kostkon | foamyys, you found the correct id string, edited your xorg.log accordingly and ready to reboot already? | 01:46 |
| Hornet | I should add that live mode booting is fine | 01:46 |
| misingnoglic | kostkon: sorry, didn't see your msg. It's "VPN Connections" and "Enable Networking" and "edit" | 01:46 |
| leoleo11 | hello | 01:46 |
| misingnoglic | I assume the wireless is replaced with a grayed out "Disconnected" | 01:47 |

| foamyys | kostkon what do i do after i have the code typed into xorg? | 01:50 |
| misingnoglic | kostkon: just "disconnected" | 01:50 |
| Hornet | so I know the defaults should work | 01:50 |
| tag0 | Hornet, but booting in recovery mode brings you to a normal shell login, right? | 01:50 |

| hj2007 | davecore82: this used to work before very well, even after 13.10 upgrade | 02:14 |
| davecore82 | do you have access to the box somehow? | 02:14 |
| tag0 | Hornet, by any chance, willing to try a boot-repair cd/usb? | 02:15 |
| kostkon | c2tarun, better ask in #ubuntu+1 personally i don't know about it being lighter but sure is faster | 02:15 |
| Hornet | tag0: I have, that's from one | 02:15 |
| rww | c2tarun: should be fine. if you're using the open source drivers they tend to get better every release anyway | 02:15 |
| c2tarun | kostkon, thanks :) | 02:15 |
| Hornet | tag0: look at the fstab though | 02:15 |
| Hornet | I can see one uuid twice | 02:15 |
| Hornet | surely that's not right | 02:15 |
| tag0 | uups, missed the available tools part, sorry | 02:15 |
| Hornet | np | 02:16 |
| c2tarun | rww, yeah thats the problem, open source ATI drivers heat up my laptop a lot, while playing movies and youtube videos. | 02:16 |
| rww | c2tarun: ah. which ATI card? | 02:16 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: I can ping to that machine, and it's successful. I don't have access to it though. | 02:16 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, that's going to be a problem... | 02:16 |

| davecore82 | hj2007, can you telnet yourmachine 22 ? does it answer? or does it just totally hang? | 02:18 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, what happens when you do a telnet yourmachine 22 | 02:19 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: It's stuck at "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_6.2p2 Ubuntu-6ubuntu0.1" | 02:19 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, ok so that means it answers to you. Are you sure you SSH on port 22 when you do your SSH? | 02:20 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: So I pressed Enter and it said "Protocol mismatch. | 02:20 |
| hj2007 | Connection closed by foreign host." | 02:20 |
| Hornet | hj2007: you have a racist computer | 02:20 |

| davecore82 | hj2007, what machine type do you ssh from? | 02:21 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: It is my personal laptop with Ubuntu 13.10 | 02:21 |
| davecore82 | and what happens if you ssh user@yourmachine ? | 02:22 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: One strange thing is that ssh and sshd are at different locations - "/usr/bin/ssh" and "/usr/sbin/sshd" | 02:22 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, thats normal. sshd is the daemon in sbin and ssh is your client | 02:23 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: ok. I've also tried changing port in ssh_config and tried giving -P option while using scp, but still I get the same error for that port. | 02:23 |
| davecore82 | scp or ssh? | 02:24 |
| H67 | Hi guys. I cannot boot anymore my ubuntu 12.04. I see the grub but after my root and swap are beeing mounted thats it. nothing else. no lightdm nothing. I am now on a live cd. | 02:24 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, just do a ssh -p 22 youruserontheremotemachine@theremotemachine | 02:24 |
| Hornet | H67: what did you change | 02:24 |
| usr13 | H67: Do you have the root partition mounted? Or did you chroot to it? | 02:25 |
| H67 | Horner: There two things which could be relevant: 1. I updated. 2. I formated a usb stick to ext and I think that gparted marked it as "boot". | 02:25 |
| usr13 | H67: By nothing else, are you refering to /home/ ? | 02:25 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: same error "ssh: connect to host xxxxxxxxxxxxx port 22: Connection refused" | 02:26 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: I was using scp, which in turn uses ssh | 02:26 |
| davecore82 | did you change your ssh_config file? | 02:26 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: no I revert it back | 02:26 |
| usr13 | H67: So, where is the Ubuntu install? | 02:26 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, yes but scp/sftp are sub-protocols of ssh. They could be disabled in sshd_config on the remote machine | 02:27 |
| H67 | usr13: I don't know if it actually mounts but during the mount process there is the following messages: "mountall: Connection to plymouth failed" | 02:27 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: oh ok, but even ssh is not working | 02:27 |
| Hornet | tag0: any thoughts? | 02:27 |
| Hornet | going to reboot to live and try altering that uuid if it's like that presently | 02:27 |
| H67 | usr13: then I see the lines for root and swap | 02:28 |
| tag0 | Hornet, a lot...none of them really helpful I fear :P | 02:28 |
| Hornet | hrm :\ | 02:28 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, try renaming your /etc/ssh_config file to /etc/ssh_config.test and try again | 02:28 |
| H67 | it stops right there. nothing else | 02:28 |
| usr13 | H67: Where are the Ubuntu/Linux partitions? (Which ones are they? | 02:28 |
| Hornet | tag0: thanks all the same though | 02:28 |

| davecore82 | hj2007, can you ssh to other machines? | 02:32 |

| hj2007 | davecore82: I didn't try. one more thing I want to tell you, ssh is also located at - /etc/init.d/ssh | 02:33 |
| davecore82 | thats your ssh daemon startup script | 02:33 |
| usr13 | H67: And what version of Ubuntu is it? | 02:33 |
| Kungr | ax562: what parameters do you mean? | 02:33 |
| H67 | usr13: It was the automatic ubuntu update. unfortunately I didn't check what exactly changed. but these were the two things which I did before | 02:34 |
| ax562 | parameters are primary, 18000 partition size, location for new partition: beginning, Use as: etx4 journaling file system, mount point: ? | 02:34 |

| davecore82 | hj2007, do cd ./ssh | 02:34 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, sorry cd ~/.ssh | 02:35 |
| ax562 | kungr: type partition: parameters are primary, 18000 partition size, location for new partition: beginning, Use as: etx4 journaling file system, mount point: ? | 02:35 |
| usr13 | H67: Ok, what exactly did you do with the USB drive? | 02:35 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, in that directory you should have a known_hosts file | 02:35 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, do a mv known_hosts known_hosts.test | 02:35 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: I had that, but I removed it | 02:35 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, try again | 02:35 |
| Hornet | tag0: interesting, booted & waited, and it worked with an error about /home mounting | 02:36 |
| Hornet | tag0: so it might be drive mount point related | 02:36 |
| Kungr | not a guru but everything looks good, just make sure mount point = / (root) | 02:36 |
| H67 | usr13: I just formated it to ext4. What I noticed was that gparted marked it as "boot". Maybe ubuntu tries to look for that boot usb stick right now. That is what I guess | 02:36 |
| hj2007 | davecore82: Now I only have - id_rsa id_rsa.pub | 02:36 |
| davecore82 | hj2007, how do you normally connect to that remote machine? password? keys? | 02:36 |
| ax562 | ok. that was my question basically | 02:36 |
| Hornet | tag0: weirdly though my user/password seems incorrect | 02:36 |
| usr13 | H67: And the USB stick is sdb? | 02:36 |

| Kungr | then there are defcon'rs | 02:52 |
| usr13 | H67: What? | 02:53 |
| H67 | usr13: no login screen appears after that | 02:53 |
| ax562 | Kungr: I delted partition, created ext-4 partition and went with delete and install new version (first option) | 02:53 |

| none | Kungr, i could shell script as program | 02:54 |
| none | also html | 02:54 |
| usr13 | H67: "stops calculating" "No black screen" and you can reboot with Ctrl-Alt-Delete Right? | 02:54 |
| H67 | usr13: There is no black screen. It simply stops after seeing the swap and root beeing mounted. | 02:54 |
| H67 | usr13: yes | 02:55 |
| usr13 | H67: What does "stops calculating" mean? And if the screen is not black, what color is it? | 02:55 |
| usr13 | H67: what is actually on the screen when it stops>? | 02:55 |
| eliterecon | Im converted an hp pavilion dv6000 special edition to ubuntu only machine but after install whenever I try to shutdown I must hold down the power button to complete the shutdown the same goes for restart it is ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS | 02:56 |
| usr13 | H67: It's not a console screen is it? (Does it say "login:" in the upper left corner?) | 02:56 |
| H67 | usr13: I enabled the debugmode (so I disabled the default ubuntu splash screen). So I see what is actually happening. And the last three messages are: "mountall: Connection to plymouth failed" | 02:56 |
| H67 | "/dev/sda5" | 02:57 |
| usr13 | H67: Is it a black screen with white letters? | 02:57 |
| H67 | usr13: yes | 02:57 |
| none | eliterecon, thats unfortunate.........i've had that happen before and sometimes it goes away | 02:58 |
| eliterecon | none: anyway to fix it? | 02:58 |
| H67 | usr13: just to clearify: I am not able to login in anyway. | 02:59 |
| usr13 | H67: pastebinit /etc/default/grub | 02:59 |
| H67 | usr13: I guess ubuntu fails to mount | 02:59 |

| usr13 | H67: Unity? | 03:18 |
| H67 | usr13: gnome shell. no unity | 03:18 |
| rww | foamyys: because you're missing a cd at the start and it's X11, not x11 | 03:19 |
| usr13 | H67: I see. So, maybe gdm instead of lightdm should be in play? Or, am I wrong about that? | 03:19 |
| pvl1 | somsip: im trying to install mupen64plus (its an n64 emulator, and i just got an n64 controller working on my arduino, on arch tho) | 03:19 |
| foamyys | so just add cd/ at the beginning and caps the x? | 03:19 |
| pvl1 | from the google code website cause it seems newer than whats in the repos somsip | 03:19 |
| rww | foamyys: cd /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ | 03:19 |

| H67 | usr13: I typed in the two commands you told me of and I rebooted. Same message again: http://image-upload.de/image/mlAUkh/ab70a8501c.jpg | 04:16 |
| rspinuz | jasabelle: No | 04:19 |
| jasabelle | oh ok, i read somewher eit wasnt the preferred way of doing things :) | 04:19 |
| jasabelle | so i apt-get install xinetd for sane then? | 04:20 |
| rspinuz | It is not installed by default | 04:20 |
| rspinuz | yes | 04:20 |
| jasabelle | and xinetd is preferred overinetd? | 04:21 |
| jasabelle | and xinetd is preferred over inetd? | 04:21 |
| rspinuz | It then comes down to the users preference. Mine is xinetd | 04:22 |
| rspinuz | for what it's worth | 04:22 |
| jasabelle | oh | 04:22 |
| jasabelle | was wondering about features and security | 04:22 |
| jasabelle | that kind of thing | 04:22 |
| jasabelle | im setting up a scan server :) | 04:22 |
| usr13 | H67: Ok I guess we'll have to chroot to the filesystem and install video driver like you said. | 04:23 |
| usr13 | H67: But first, let's see what you are running now. | 04:23 |
| H67 | usr13: ok | 04:23 |
| whoever | jerrytgarcia: ubuntu add repo or ppa to list | 04:24 |
| usr13 | H67: lsmod |pastebinit | 04:24 |
| rspinuz | jasabell: Stick with xinetd | 04:25 |
| jasabelle | is it "safe enough" to leave services open on my server (e.g. CUPS) but not have them exposed to the internet by the router? | 04:25 |
| jasabelle | (i.e. not port forwarding for them) | 04:25 |
| H67 | usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7123537/ | 04:25 |
| rspinuz | They would be ports that are open not services | 04:25 |
| rspinuz | yes providing you configure your server properly | 04:26 |
| jasabelle | oops yup | 04:26 |
| jasabelle | ok | 04:26 |
| rspinuz | Allways run them behind a hardware firewall | 04:26 |
| jasabelle | hmmm | 04:26 |
| H67 | usr13: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Cayman PRO [Radeon HD 6950] | 04:27 |
| jasabelle | i want them accessible by things on my network (192.168.1.0/24) | 04:27 |
| rspinuz | jasabell: also fail2ban and denyhosts would be a pluss | 04:27 |
| rspinuz | plus | 04:27 |
| rspinuz | Not to the outside workd | 04:27 |
| rspinuz | world? | 04:27 |
| rspinuz | jasabell: I would set them up the same way you would if this were an external server | 04:28 |
| usr13 | H67: http://askubuntu.com/questions/146017/mountall-fails-on-startup | 04:29 |
| rspinuz | jasabell: Security Hardening: http://www.serverhardening.com/ or http://www.tecmint.com/linux-server-hardening-security-tips/ | 04:29 |
| usr13 | H67: The error we are seeing is not consistent with a Video driver issue. | 04:29 |
| jasabelle | thanks!!!! | 04:29 |
| rspinuz | No Preblem | 04:30 |
| H67 | usr13: you are right. So it has something to do with gparted... weird because I only formated the usb stick which is not relevant to the system.... | 04:30 |
| usr13 | H67: At http://askubuntu.com/questions/146017/mountall-fails-on-startup it says he deleted the swap partition and re-created it and that fixed it for him. Does not sound to me like it would work but I don't know. | 04:31 |
| H67 | usr13: I have to chroot for this I guess? | 04:32 |
| usr13 | no | 04:32 |
| usr13 | H67: "I have fixed this issue by simply delete my swap partition completely with GParted, reboot my system. And then re-create a new partition again as linux-swap." | 04:32 |
| H67 | ^^ | 04:33 |
| H67 | ok | 04:33 |
| akurilin | Hey guys, is it possible to open cmus on just ONE single mp3 file? | 04:33 |
| akurilin | Rather than adding the file to your collection? | 04:33 |
| akurilin | Or alternatively, is there something else I could use to play just one file at a time from a folder from the command line? | 04:33 |
| usr13 | H67: It doesn't make any sense but that's what he said. | 04:33 |
| rspinuz | vlc | 04:33 |
| H67 | usr13: I try | 04:34 |
| rspinuz | akruilin: VlC Has a command line option: https://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help/ | 04:34 |
| akurilin | rspinuz: will this load up the UI? I'm just looking for a terminal-based app | 04:35 |
| akurilin | no gui | 04:35 |
| usr13 | H67: I see: "Make sure that you have correct entries in /etc/fstab" on http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/plymouth-command-failed-868723/ | 04:35 |
| usr13 | H67: Now that ^^^^^^^^^^ makes sense. | 04:35 |
| usr13 | H67: Let's check the blkids. Okay? | 04:36 |
| jasabelle | hmmm it couldnt authenticate the xinetd package? | 04:36 |
| usr13 | H67: sudo blkid |pastebinit | 04:36 |
| H67 | usr13: ^^ ok. I recreated the swap anyways | 04:36 |
| usr13 | H67: Ok | 04:37 |
| usr13 | H67: sudo blkid |pastebinit | 04:37 |

| rspinuz | jasabell: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-frontends.html | 04:45 |
| usr13 | H67: Yea. Need to change it. Do you use vi or nano or gksudo gedit? | 04:46 |
| jasabelle | yep im on that page now :) | 04:46 |
| H67 | usr13: gedit | 04:46 |
| seednode | Oh | 04:46 |

| grahamsavage | erm.. is there a pinyin input in ubuntu 12.04 that works? | 04:47 |
| usr13 | H67: No, just the one for swap | 04:47 |
| grahamsavage | i've tried 2 and either just crashes the UI, or doesn't work.. and another one i downloaded just picks incorrect characters as the first choice all the time | 04:47 |
| usr13 | H67: Change UUID=1a16d7b7-52df-444d-a33a-d62cfec0b715 to UUID=1b7440ba-bc1e-4453-acca-b0eaa1963843 | 04:49 |
| grahamsavage | ffs, i can't open system settings | 04:49 |
| H67 | usr13: done | 04:49 |
| jasabelle | graham... #ubuntu-cn or #ubuntu-tw might know | 04:49 |
| grahamsavage | Is 13.04 or 13.10 better than 12.04.. 12.04 seems to be really buggy | 04:49 |
| usr13 | H67: That should do it. The others are ok. | 04:49 |
| usr13 | H67: Reboot and see.... | 04:49 |
| H67 | :) | 04:50 |
| grahamsavage | jasabelle: yeah i asked :).. but i can't type in chinese so maybe they don't understand my English :D | 04:50 |
| rspinuz | grahamsavage: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_in_China#English_education | 04:51 |
| grahamsavage | An estimate of the number of English speakers in China is over 200 million and rising << lol | 04:53 |
| rspinuz | English is taught in almost every country in every school. It is the worlds most known and widely used language . | 04:53 |
| rspinuz | I mean common even though the Us is trillions in debt the USD is also the most known currency. | 04:54 |
| grahamsavage | yeah, but it depends which country you are from. If you are from europe you will probably be able speak english very well.. In china I would say it's less than 1/200 can speak | 04:54 |
| jasabelle | answer your pm graham | 04:54 |
| rspinuz | demanding | 04:54 |
| grahamsavage | rspinuz: answered my question though :D | 04:57 |
| Tom1 | hello | 04:57 |
| rspinuz | The dmanding part was more so for jasabells comment, but I am glad I somehow helped | 04:58 |
| rspinuz | I was joking about it though jasabell | 04:58 |
| grahamsavage | rspinuz: she pm'd me the library name.. it's called fcitx-googlepinyin | 04:59 |
| H67 | usr13: it didn't work. I tried every kernel but always the same output.... | 04:59 |

| H67 | usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7123725/ | 05:39 |
| H67 | usr13: everything seems fine | 05:40 |
| H67 | usr13: I removed all ATI drivers to see if something change. the message stays the same | 05:40 |
| H67 | usr13: I reboot to see if fsck changed something | 05:41 |
| rspinuz | duoj: cat /etc/resolv.conf | 05:41 |
| rspinuz | No problem Tom1 | 05:42 |
| rspinuz | jasabelle: That is hard to answer because I have no idea what your network topology is. | 05:43 |
| rspinuz | H67: What message are you getting? | 05:44 |
| jasabelle | true :) | 05:44 |
| jasabelle | the *.d directories in /etc are generally daemons it seems (a naming convention?) | 05:48 |
| H67 | usr13: unbelievable. Nothing works. This is the worst problem I ever experienced on ubuntu so far | 05:48 |
| H67 | there isn't even an error | 05:49 |
| rspinuz | Ok so then what is the problem | 05:50 |
| H67 | rspinuz: you mean me? | 05:52 |
| rspinuz | H67: Yes | 05:53 |
| H67 | H67: http://image-upload.de/image/mlAUkh/ab70a8501c.jpg | 05:53 |
| rspinuz | jasabelle: was that for H67 or me? | 05:53 |
| H67 | ubuntu (12.04) doesnt mount anymore | 05:53 |
| jasabelle | you but never mind :) | 05:53 |
| H67 | rspinuz: it just stays there until I reboot (Strg+Alt+Del) | 05:54 |
| H67 | I can'T get to any login screen | 05:54 |
| H67 | lightdm doesn't work and ttym neither | 05:54 |
| H67 | I checked fstab. Everything correct. I recreatread the swap. Didn't help. I deleted my ATI drivers but still the same message. | 05:55 |
| H67 | I don't know what else to look for | 05:56 |
| rspinuz | H67: What was the last thing you did before this happened | 05:56 |
| rspinuz | jasabelle: mind a pm? | 05:56 |
| H67 | rspinuz: ubuntu updated a new kernel (I think). plus I formatted a usb stick from fat32 to ext4 | 05:57 |
| H67 | via gparted | 05:57 |
| H67 | don't know but maybe this messed something up | 05:58 |
| rspinuz | are you sure you formatted the correct device? | 05:58 |
| jasabelle | sure :) pm away! | 05:58 |
| rspinuz | H67: Start here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode | 05:58 |
| H67 | rspinuz, I am sure. I still have access to my files on my harddisk | 05:59 |
| rspinuz | OK, boot your ubuntu into recovery mode | 05:59 |
| H67 | rspinuz: already tried. | 06:00 |
| rspinuz | What happens | 06:00 |
| H67 | rspinuz: the same last two messages you see on that picture also are shown when I am on recovery mode | 06:00 |
| H67 | and then nothing | 06:00 |
| H67 | I have to reboot again (Strg+Alt+Del) | 06:00 |
| H67 | I tried with every kernel | 06:01 |
| rspinuz | H67: Did you read that article I sent you | 06:02 |
| H67 | rspinuz: Yes. I only mounted as read only. But there shouldn't be a difference because the system still doesn't start | 06:03 |
| rspinuz | Yes there would be a difference because if you are not mounting as rw then you can not make any filesystem changes | 06:04 |
| rspinuz | running fsck like you should do would not work because your not able to read or write | 06:04 |
| rspinuz | you should also rebuild your initramfs and grub config and can not do that with out rw access | 06:05 |
| H67 | rspinuz: ok so I will do as you said and then fsck? | 06:05 |
| H67 | rspinuz: I can' | 06:05 |
| H67 | rspinuz: I can't do theses things from live cd? | 06:05 |
| rspinuz | you can what | 06:05 |
| H67 | I just have to chroot | 06:06 |
| rspinuz | ? | 06:07 |
| H67 | rspinuz: right now I am on a ubunt live cd | 06:07 |
| rspinuz | Boot without the live cd and boot into recovery mode | 06:07 |
| H67 | I'll give it a shot and will come back in a minute. Thanks | 06:08 |
| rspinuz | No problem | 06:08 |

| Georwl | rspinuz: I tried recovery mode as you said and saw what the real issue was | 06:21 |
| Georwl | rspinuz, usr13: as I mentioned I used gparted to format my usb stick. Gparted unfortunately marked it now as a "boot" partition. So everytime I want to boot my PC I have to plugin my usb stick -_- | 06:23 |
| Georwl | how do I get rid of this? | 06:23 |
| pvl1 | Georwl: uh thats not because your usb is flagged as boot partition | 06:24 |
| pvl1 | where do you have grub installed | 06:24 |
| rspinuz | it is on the hd | 06:25 |
| Georwl | grub is on my hd | 06:25 |

| rspinuz | Georwl: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/change-boot-flag-in-terminal-905477/ | 06:25 |

| ryck | Hi. Question about swap partitions: is it a problem to resize them to for example 10 gb? | 06:26 |
| rspinuz | and use the proper partition | 06:26 |
| rspinuz | ryck: Why so big? | 06:26 |
| pvl1 | ryck: yeah thats huge | 06:26 |
| rspinuz | It should be twice the size of the amount of ram you have | 06:26 |
| Georwl | rspinuz: But which partition do I have to flag as boot, root? | 06:26 |
| pvl1 | i actually dont have any swap | 06:26 |
| rspinuz | At lease that is a linux default | 06:26 |
| pvl1 | but i dont put my computers to sleep. i just shut em off. or leave on | 06:27 |
| pvl1 | oh i lied, this pc has swap partition. ignore me | 06:27 |
| somsip | ryck: no problem. swapoff -a, resize it, swapon -a. Done | 06:27 |
| ryck | Ok, thx. So it's not useful to have a 10 gb swap, but it's not a problem. | 06:27 |
| rspinuz | Georwl: fdisk -L | 06:27 |
| rspinuz | find out what one is your boot partition | 06:28 |
| Georwl | rspinuz: yes I know but which do I take? root or home? | 06:28 |
| rspinuz | it should be sda | 06:28 |
| ryck | somsip, I resized with gparted. | 06:28 |

| IamTrying | Skype is suspended in Ubuntu 13.10 ? | 06:29 |
| ryck | But something is strange: my swap is 10 gb but my system monitoring says it has just 3,9 gb …? | 06:29 |
| ljsoftnet | will it break my system if i change my boot flag to root partition? | 06:29 |
| ryck | Because I have 3,9 RAM? | 06:29 |
| somsip | ryck: swap is swap, RAM is RAM. Did you restart? | 06:30 |
| Georwl | rspinuz: still confused. which one do I flag as boot: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7123841/ ? | 06:30 |
| Georwl | I also have a windows partition | 06:30 |
| ryck | somsip, yes. | 06:30 |

| ryck | 3,9 | 06:31 |
| ryck | (3980) | 06:31 |

| somsip | ryck: explain the process you followed | 06:32 |
| rspinuz | ws your usb in there when you intalled ubuntu? | 06:33 |

| angel | rspinuz it will send an email | 06:37 |
| ryck | Thx. | 06:39 |
| rspinuz | angel: not what is is supposed to do what does the actual command do? | 06:39 |

| pvl1 | is it possible to override a dependancy in apt | 06:40 |
| angel | rspinuz the link is working because when i go to that link directly with my browser its working | 06:40 |
| rspinuz | not what I am asking | 06:40 |
| rspinuz | not sure if this is a development issue or imporper curl request | 06:41 |
| rspinuz | angel: try running curl with -vS --trace "filename" | 06:41 |
| rspinuz | The -S will show an error if there is one. The -v will verbose and shoe you what is going on, and teh --trace will create a trace file with everything that curl just did | 06:42 |
| rspinuz | angel: make sure your curl request works first then worry about cron | 06:42 |
| rspinuz | Your cron entry looks correct which is why I am having yo go this route | 06:43 |
| angel | rspinuz sorry how can i check if curl request works? i have check, curl was enabled already. | 06:48 |

| angel | rspinuz i'm still reading the file that it created | 07:03 |
| angel | i cannot understand it right now | 07:04 |
| rspinuz | Run it without the --trace option and see what happens | 07:05 |
| rspinuz | In fact only use the -S option and see what happens. | 07:06 |
| rspinuz | Check to see if you got the email | 07:06 |
| rspinuz | angel: Without seeing your code it is hard to help. I am blindly helping you right now because I do not know how your script was written and this could be a development issue | 07:08 |
| rspinuz | Really in which case this would be the wrong channel to ask in | 07:08 |
| rspinuz | It turns out the ubuntu channel has no moderators to mention stuff like this or they dont really care about topics | 07:08 |
| pvl1 | installing a dev package doesnt actually install the files right? like installing the libgl dev package wont overwrite my libgl.so | 07:10 |
| rspinuz | pv1: it installs the development headers and libraries | 07:11 |
| rspinuz | required for some software to run | 07:11 |
| rspinuz | Really more so the headers | 07:11 |
| pvl1 | rspinuz: libraries doesnt include object files right | 07:11 |
| pvl1 | rspinuz: to clarify, im trying to install mpv, but im using the official nvidia drivers, and it depends on the repo's version. so im trying to compile. and a dep is the libgl dev package | 07:12 |
| rspinuz | In C and C++ .so or (shared objects) are the libraries | 07:12 |
| rspinuz | the .c are the header files | 07:12 |
| pvl1 | hm | 07:13 |
| pvl1 | that cleared a lot up for me actually | 07:13 |
| rspinuz | or .h | 07:13 |
| rspinuz | what are you trying to do? | 07:13 |
| pvl1 | but so installing libegl1-mesa-dev | 07:13 |
| pvl1 | will that write over my nvidia driver | 07:13 |
| pvl1 | oh install mpv without removing my official driver | 07:14 |
| rspinuz | no it will not | 07:14 |
| rspinuz | libegl1 and libegl1-dev are two different packages and not even your nvidia driver package just a dependancy | 07:15 |
| pvl1 | right, but this is for compiling mpv | 07:15 |
| pvl1 | if i just install mpv from the repo, it depends on nvidia drivers | 07:16 |

| kry | Hallo | 07:27 |
| === JoseeAntonioR is now known as jose | ||
| rspinuz | Hello kry. | 07:28 |
| kry | I was thinking about doing dual boot with Windows 7 and Lubuntu. I have a 100 GB HDD for that, which I plan partitioning 80-20 for W7 | 07:28 |
| kry | Do I have to necessarily install W7 first? Will the 2 system partitions see each other? Will Lubuntu see the third 500 GB HDD? Will it be able to install its stuff on it? | 07:29 |
| cfhowlett | kry, much easier and less painful to do windows then ubuntu | 07:30 |
| cfhowlett | kry, windows will not see the lubuntu parts, but lubuntu will see windows | 07:30 |
| rspinuz | but grub will not be installed on /dev/sda1 if you do | 07:31 |
| rspinuz | You will have to use the windows boot loader | 07:31 |
| kry | I will need to be able choose which one to boot | 07:31 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, no he could just reinstall grub. fixed | 07:31 |
| rspinuz | then it will go the grub when you select lubuntu | 07:31 |
| kry | That's GRUB, right? | 07:31 |
| cfhowlett | !grub | 07:31 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 07:31 |
| rspinuz | over writting your /dev/sda1 causing windows not to boot at all | 07:31 |
| rspinuz | gotta love bots | 07:32 |
| kry | Hmm, but that might make Windows not recognize C:\ | 07:32 |
| rspinuz | C:\ is only windows | 07:33 |
| cfhowlett | kry, what? | 07:33 |
| kry | I've had problems with it before, when I partitioned a disk at random way, and there was no C:\ for W7 to install itself | 07:33 |
| rspinuz | you must have remove the partition that was your C:\ folder path | 07:33 |
| cfhowlett | kry, use the windows partitioning tool to make free space for the lubuntu. install as normal. boot ubuntu and choose the free space to install | 07:33 |
| rspinuz | or suer partition | 07:34 |
| rspinuz | user | 07:34 |
| rspinuz | cfhowlett: run a tool that moves all your files to the begining of the drive first | 07:34 |
| rspinuz | you risk loosing files when shrinking a windows filesystem | 07:34 |
| rspinuz | a down fall of NTFS | 07:34 |
| Mattfox27 | Can anyone help me with Deluge torrent and proxies???PLEASE HELP ME | 07:35 |
| rspinuz | When ever you use windows to shrink a drive it tells you this | 07:35 |
| rspinuz | what is the issue Mattfox27 | 07:35 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, perhaps we're lookking at this wrong. | 07:35 |
| cfhowlett | kry, is your HDD currently empty? | 07:35 |
| rspinuz | could be | 07:35 |
| Mattfox27 | Well im running ubuntu 13.10 and deluge 1.3.6 and i guess there is an issue with libtorrent that makes it not work with socks5 proxies | 07:36 |
| Mattfox27 | i have tried everything i can think of i have scowered the internet trying to find a solution | 07:36 |
| Mattfox27 | when i add a magnetic link to deluge using a proxy it just kills | 07:36 |
| === jakew02 is now known as jakew02|away | ||
| Mattfox27 | everyone says to downgrade libtorrent but i can't figure out how | 07:37 |
| rspinuz | cfhowlett: Hope he did not run off and try a bunch of stuff without knowing what is going on. | 07:37 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, sent a pm ... | 07:38 |
| rspinuz | Mattfox27: Try this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/292314/how-to-downgrade-packages-on-ubuntu | 07:38 |
| rspinuz | cool, good looking out cfhowlett. | 07:38 |
| Mattfox27 | let me see | 07:39 |
| rspinuz | Mattfox27: You might have dependancy and security issues by doing such a thing | 07:39 |
| Mattfox27 | no i didn't try that i have been doing it all in command line, let me try it | 07:39 |
| Mattfox27 | everywhere i read they suggest to downgrade to libtorrent 15 or 14 even the proxy company says that but i can't figure out how to do it | 07:40 |
| rspinuz | The proxy company gives bad advice | 07:41 |
| Mattfox27 | let me jump over to my ubuntu box and give it a shot | 07:41 |
| Mattfox27 | ya from what i have read it is a bug in deluge, im using deluge because i use the windwos client to control my linux torrent box | 07:41 |
| Mattfox27 | i first did it on my raspberry pi and it worked great but that was deluge 1.3.3 then i went to ubuntu and it instals deluge 1.3.6 and it gets all messed up | 07:42 |
| rspinuz | I am lost | 07:42 |
| Mattfox27 | i was using this guide http://www.howtogeek.com/142044/how-to-turn-a-raspberry-pi-into-an-always-on-bittorrent-box/ | 07:43 |
| === andre__ is now known as Guest38078 | ||
| rspinuz | So what is the point of this and why? | 07:44 |
| rspinuz | Mattfox27: All you are doing is creating another machine to constantly run a bit torrent client. Why can this not be done from your normal machine? | 07:45 |
| rspinuz | All you have to do is leave your client open | 07:46 |
| pvl1 | rtorrent ftw | 07:46 |
| Mattfox27 | well i have a linux box running XMBC and a bunch of other media stuff and it was nice to have it all on one seperate box doing its own thing | 07:47 |
| rspinuz | Dedicated machines or vm's on your current machine? | 07:47 |
| rspinuz | or vm's on a dedicated machine> | 07:47 |
| rspinuz | *? | 07:47 |
| Mattfox27 | ya i was using sabnzbd, couchpotato and others that all linked up on the ubuntu box and it was really nice but deluge messed it all up | 07:48 |
| YaMoonSun | Is there any fuskering software for Linux? | 07:48 |
| Mattfox27 | ya it was cool because all the other software linked to deluge and it would all run real smooth, auto download ect.. | 07:49 |
| Mattfox27 | i set it up on a raspberry pi but the PI just wasn't powerfull enough | 07:49 |
| ax562 | i just got on 12.04LTS. Are there any speed tweeks. I was 0n 11.04 32bit. I assumed 12.04LTS 64bit would be faster. It is not. | 07:50 |
| Mattfox27 | so i moved to a small pentium box with ubuntu and it worked great until i setup the proxy then i read from deluge that there is a bug in libtorrent and they say to downgrade it but i just can't find how to do that | 07:50 |
| rspinuz | Mattfox27: So ditch the proxy untill libtorrent is fixed | 07:50 |
| cfhowlett | ax562, I'm guessing you're running older hardware. try xfce or lxde windows managers. unity is a resource hog | 07:50 |
| rspinuz | Mattfox27: Alott less work fo ryou | 07:51 |
| rspinuz | Allot | 07:52 |
| BlackDeath | can i ask apache2 questions in here? | 07:52 |
| rspinuz | are they ubuntu specific or apache 2 specific | 07:52 |
| cfhowlett | BlackDeath, better to seek support from apache support | 07:52 |
| Mattfox27 | Copy that | 07:52 |
| rspinuz | cfhowlett: Could be a apache config issue with in ubuntu | 07:53 |
| BlackDeath | cfhowlett, np, thanks mate | 07:54 |
| cfhowlett | BlackDeath, say the issue before you go | 07:54 |

| Flannel | andry, kongthap: use "adduser username group" and not usermod, it's safer (you don't run the risk of breaking all sorts of things by forgetting the -a) | 08:31 |
| andry | :) | 08:31 |
| andry | carry the a. :D | 08:31 |
| andry | but he is right | 08:32 |
| fidel_ | got it - user can defined a shortcut for that via: Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Windows -> Hide Window | 08:32 |
| kongthap | andry, Flannel, let's say my user is "foo", to make it work, foo must be member of www-data ?? i don't understand concept | 08:32 |
| andry | www-data must be a member of your users group | 08:33 |
| andry | then you have to add rights for the group to read | 08:33 |
| andry | = g+r | 08:33 |
| kongthap | andry, www-data is username of apache? | 08:33 |
| andry | yes, in ubuntu it is | 08:33 |
| rspinuz | is in't the other way around? | 08:33 |
| kongthap | andry, ok i think i got what you explain, i will try to do that | 08:34 |
| rspinuz | he needs to be a part of the www-data group? | 08:34 |
| rspinuz | or the user foo | 08:34 |
| andry | he is reading files from within his home dir as user www-data, so you can just add www-data to your users group and change the rights to allow gruop members to read | 08:34 |
| rspinuz | Ah got it. | 08:34 |
| andry | not best practice, but it works | 08:35 |
| andry | :) | 08:35 |

| ilhami | Hey | 08:36 |
| ilhami | anybody here? | 08:37 |
| Toadstool2 | nope | 08:37 |
| ilhami | how do I install workbench? | 08:37 |
| stego | andry, i can really recommend h5ai! | 08:37 |
| cfhowlett | ilhami, software center | 08:37 |
| Sireorion | Good Morning Ubuntu World | 08:38 |
| andry | i like it too:) | 08:38 |
| andry | an example: http://nightly.mpc-hc.org/ | 08:38 |
| ilhami | cfhowlett, I am using xfce. | 08:38 |
| ilhami | how? | 08:38 |
| andry | you mean mysql-workbench? | 08:39 |
| Toadstool2 | ilhami: sudo apt-get install mysql-workbench | 08:39 |
| kongthap | i uses "groups foo", it returns foo, etc. this means foo is also a group name? | 08:39 |
| cfhowlett | ilhami, so am I. Look on your system menu: Ubuntu software Center | 08:39 |
| Sireorion | hi everybody im back after last nights attemts to make wine work in 64bit version of ubuntu.. Today is a new day and an reinstall of ubuntu. but this time 32 bit | 08:40 |
| Toadstool2 | NOOOOOOOOOOO | 08:40 |
| Toadstool2 | go back to 64 bit | 08:40 |
| Toadstool2 | 32 bit is the devil | 08:40 |
| andry | your username is also a groupname, i am running debian at the moment where it is this way .. but maybe your default group is "users" in ubuntu | 08:40 |
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: : no 64 is the devil. Cant install wine or play on linux | 08:40 |
| rspinuz | Sireorion: Keep 64 and install the 32 bit libs | 08:40 |
| rspinuz | yes you can | 08:40 |
| Toadstool2 | sure you can | 08:41 |
| Sireorion | i tryed for about 6 hours last night | 08:41 |
| Sireorion | so i gave up | 08:41 |
| Toadstool2 | hmm | 08:41 |
| Toadstool2 | shouldnt be that hard | 08:41 |
| Toadstool2 | it just takes a few commands | 08:41 |
| rspinuz | What makes you think a simple 64 to 32 change will be any different | 08:41 |
| kongthap | andry, so in my case i just have to add www-data to foo right? then allow group foo for read permission | 08:41 |
| andry | yes | 08:42 |
| Sireorion | the crap with this laptop is UEFI secure boot. and stuff. | 08:42 |
| andry | foo = your users group | 08:42 |
| Toadstool2 | 32 bit ubuntu limits you to 4 gb ram | 08:42 |
| Toadstool2 | there's a workaround but its not worth the trouble | 08:43 |
| Sireorion | Okey ill download 64 again. i have 16 gb ram in this | 08:43 |
| rspinuz | In your laptop? | 08:43 |
| Toadstool2 | stick with 64 bit | 08:43 |
| Toadstool2 | installing playonlinux is easy as pie | 08:43 |
| Sireorion | in laptop | 08:43 |
| MooDoo | don't you have to play around with the pae kernal if you want more than 4gb on a 32bit system? | 08:43 |
| Sireorion | alienware u know rspinuz | 08:44 |
| rspinuz | wow what do you do on your laptop that requires 16 gb of ram? | 08:44 |
| andry | it is enabled by default MooDoo | 08:44 |
| DJones | Toadstool2: Thats no longer the case, Ubuntu ships by default witrh a par kernel now, so you get access to more than 4Gb of ram | 08:44 |
| MooDoo | andry: ah thanks | 08:44 |
| Toadstool2 | oh nice | 08:44 |
| Sireorion | rspinuz: Gaming and 3d processing | 08:44 |
| rspinuz | Well then that makes allot of sense Sireorion | 08:44 |
| Sireorion | rspinuz: yeap it does. i really love this computer, so i bought a new today after last nights attempt to install.. | 08:45 |
| Sireorion | the other laptop ran into a wall | 08:45 |
| rspinuz | hahaha | 08:46 |
| Sireorion | sadly but true | 08:46 |
| rspinuz | I had one that took up flying. He was not very good at it though. | 08:46 |
| Sireorion | rspinuz: hahaha... i dont know why computers think they are like birds and s*it | 08:47 |
| rspinuz | lol | 08:47 |
| Kartagis | what if testdisk doesn't list the partition table type I found using gparted? | 08:47 |
| Sireorion | mouses and keyboards are the same... My last mouse thinked he was a scubadiver in the WC | 08:48 |
| Toadstool2 | Sireorion if you're into gaming you should stick with windows 7 | 08:49 |
| Toadstool2 | linux is a terrible choice when it comes to gaming | 08:49 |
| Toadstool2 | your options are extremely limited | 08:49 |
| === salman_ is now known as nOObbbb | ||
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: yeap i know. but i have dualboot on this | 08:49 |
| ilhami | how can I install Ubuntu Software Center? | 08:50 |
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: or trippleboot . Win8 , ubuntu and osx | 08:50 |

| ax562 | cfhowlett: xfce is the only answer? I'm going to get it but I dumbfounded how I can go from 32bit to 64bit and lose performance extremely. | 08:51 |
| Toadstool2 | i tried running osx once | 08:51 |
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: by hackintosh or pure? | 08:51 |
| Toadstool2 | it worked but the computer was so crippled due to driver issues | 08:51 |
| Toadstool2 | hackintosh | 08:51 |
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: hackintosh is the simple way to make it work. a pure copy is the sh*t | 08:52 |
| cfhowlett | ax562, what are your system specifics? | 08:52 |
| Toadstool2 | it was a horrible experience | 08:53 |
| Toadstool2 | lol | 08:53 |
| Toadstool2 | running into kernel panic errors | 08:53 |
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: why? | 08:53 |
| Toadstool2 | trying different flags to see what worked | 08:53 |
| Toadstool2 | rebooting constantly | 08:53 |
| Toadstool2 | so frustrating | 08:53 |
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: yeah i know the felling.. | 08:53 |
| Sireorion | Toadstool2: thats why i use a pure installation of osx | 08:54 |
| cfhowlett | ilhami, ubuntu software center is already installed in xubuntu | 08:54 |
| Toadstool2 | now every time i tell myself i want a hackintosh i just run OSX on a virtualmachine | 08:54 |
| Toadstool2 | after a while i realize that OSX really isnt any better than any other OS | 08:54 |
| Toadstool2 | its just prettier | 08:54 |
| ilhami | cfhowlett, not here. I am installing it now | 08:54 |
| Sireorion | osx are really good when u work with grafics | 08:55 |
| rspinuz | Toadstool: Can that be done without having a intel cpu? | 08:55 |
| Toadstool2 | not sure, i think there are some patches for AMD processors | 08:56 |
| Sireorion | virtuel osx rspinuz ? | 08:56 |
| rspinuz | Sireorion: or when developing osx apps | 08:56 |
| Toadstool2 | but i've only ever tried on intel | 08:56 |
| Sireorion | rspinuz: yes | 08:56 |
| cfhowlett | osx is off-topic | 08:56 |
| rspinuz | cfhowlett is right | 08:56 |
| Sireorion | rspinuz: u can use amd to | 08:56 |
| Toadstool2 | so what? | 08:56 |
| rspinuz | Sireorion, and Toadstool2 may I pm you? | 08:57 |
| Toadstool2 | talking about things being offtopic is also offtopic | 08:57 |

| black_angel | I can open firefox when just : ssh -X root@192.168.2.232 | 09:10 |

| black_angel | but i don't know how-to do that. | 09:11 |

| rspinuz | black_angel: Also you should never ssh into a machine as root | 09:13 |

| ubottu | ax562, try this; drop test something other than unity to see if you get better results.: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 and up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Se | 09:40 |

| ziggurat | Yesterday I had error while installing Ubuntu 14.04, it was unable to complete grub-install, ran the command in a terminal and there was something about /moo or something. Any known issue? | 10:28 |

| ziggurat | Thanks DJones | 10:29 |
| sireorion | how do i mount my /dev/sd ? | 10:31 |
| michagogo|cloud | I know ubottu can give information for Ubuntu packages | 10:32 |
| Doctor_N1ck | sireorion: using screws, probably | 10:33 |
| michagogo|cloud | Is it also able to get ppa details? | 10:33 |
| Doctor_N1ck | sireorion: sudo mount /dev/sd /the/mount/point/dir | 10:34 |
| sireorion | Doctor_N1ck, hahaha. is it by "ls -al | dev sda" ? | 10:34 |
| DJones | !ppa | michagogo|cloud Ubottu doesn't give info for ppa's, but the bot will gove you a link that you can use to search the ppa database, | 10:34 |
| ubottu | michagogo|cloud Ubottu doesn't give info for ppa's, but the bot will gove you a link that you can use to search the ppa database,: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge | 10:34 |

| michagogo|cloud | DJones: I didn't need the info message -- I know what ppas are and how to search them :) | 10:36 |
| michagogo|cloud | My question was really, is there a way I can check if a certain ppa got updated without leaving my IRC client (I'm on my phone atm) | 10:37 |
| DJones | michagogo|cloud: In that case, no, because they're unofficial, the bot doesn't have details of them, there's only the web interface | 10:37 |
| Cerberus | hello. anyone here on 14.04 development? | 10:38 |
| michagogo|cloud | DJones: okay, fair enough | 10:38 |
| michagogo|cloud | Thanks anyway | 10:38 |
| michagogo|cloud | (Though the bot does fetch some data from LP, so it's reasonable to think it might be able to et ppa info) | 10:39 |
| kongthap | andry, sorry i didn't see you message, about apache config, it's all working now | 10:39 |
| Doctor_N1ck | sireorion: are you using the mount point in the command? | 10:40 |
| kongthap | andry, another problem, i use synapse to search for .md file in my computer, when found i just enter, sysnape opens file and lunch ReText for me, but when i find more files, it always open new instance of ReText, is it possible to share one instance of ReText for all file ? | 10:41 |

| cloudgeek | I start a live image of ubuntu, now I want chnage the passwd, but I don't know current password. what is a deafult password | 10:43 |
| RobDude | I've been running 12.04 for two weeks now, and it's amazing. I love it. But, twice now, I've had the whole system slow to a crawl. The mouse could still move, but it was stutter from one spot to the next. I tried to switch to another tty using ctrl+alt+f3 and it was unbelievable slow. When I logged in, the welcome message appeared in chunks and it took like four full minutes to get a prompt. Without any intervention, it magically seemed to fix itself. | 10:47 |
| RobDude | When I went back to the UI section, everything was black and I had to click around for windows to repaint themselves. | 10:47 |
| RobDude | Can anyone help me troubleshoot this? Does it sound like a video driver issue? | 10:47 |

| Welastevil | if it is a chat why anybody chating? | 11:29 |
| Guest58632 | why | 11:29 |
| DJones | Welastevil: Probably because this isn't a chat channel, its a support channel | 11:29 |
| rspinuz | what DJones said | 11:29 |
| Welastevil | someone eat the fingers of the geeks and they can not type? | 11:29 |
| skippezot | think there's lot more chitchat ont the offtopic channel | 11:30 |

| Guest58632 | ./***.sh | 11:30 |
| rspinuz | sh file-name.sh | 11:31 |
| Welastevil | I need a free linyx app for learning the base of programing | 11:31 |
| ilhami | which one is correct? | 11:31 |
| Welastevil | someone can sugest something>? | 11:31 |
| ilhami | both? | 11:31 |
| rspinuz | the way guest said you need to have the sh file executable | 11:31 |
| rspinuz | chmod -v +x script-name.sh | 11:31 |
| ilhami | that's not hard ) | 11:31 |
| ilhami | :) | 11:31 |
| Welastevil | I found some cool didatic free apps, fro free....but a bit for children I think | 11:31 |
| ilhami | do you know where I can find startWebLogic.sh? | 11:31 |
| ilhami | in which folder? | 11:32 |
| ilhami | bin? | 11:32 |
| rspinuz | ilhami: Install mlocate then run updatedb then run locate startWebLogic.sh | 11:32 |
| Welastevil | I'm starting my geek life now, so I want very much download apps that can help me to learne more about ubuNTU...linux AND ALL...\ | 11:32 |
| Welastevil | PROGRAMING STUF.... | 11:32 |
| rspinuz | bin fiels are in /usr/bin | 11:33 |
| rspinuz | Welastevil: So what is your question and does it have to do with Ubuntu? | 11:33 |
| OerHeks | find your file with " locate <file> or which <file>" | 11:34 |
| ilhami | how to see running processes? ps aux? | 11:34 |
| rspinuz | OerHeks: locate only works if mlocat is installd and you run updatedb first | 11:35 |
| skippezot | anybody knows how to instal this plugin : https://code.launchpad.net/~pmarchwiak/synapse-project/recoll-plugin | 11:35 |
| Welastevil | ok rspinuz, the first question is: is necessary to clean caches from time to time in ubustu as in MacOS? | 11:35 |
| rspinuz | mlocate | 11:35 |
| OerHeks | rspinuz, no it works without mlocate | 11:35 |
| Arthar360 | ilhami, : yes..you can also use top command | 11:35 |
| rspinuz | huh | 11:35 |
| OerHeks | or mlocate is installed by default? | 11:35 |
| rspinuz | mlocate must be installed by default then | 11:35 |
| OerHeks | yes it is, i didn't know that | 11:36 |
| Welastevil | in ubuntu, has some terminal commands to optimiza computer and internet speed as in macOS? | 11:36 |
| Arthar360 | ilhami , : yes..you can also use top command | 11:36 |
| Guest58632 | Is there any chat tools in LAN? | 11:36 |

| m1chael | i moved some large files (few gigs each) to an external usb drive. as soon as the copy window was done, i unmounted the drive and now i realize that none of those files are on there. has this ever happened to anyone? | 11:38 |
| Arthar360 | Guest58632 : In Empathy , Use People Nearby | 11:38 |
| rspinuz | Also waiting for an answer from someone who is able to help. | 11:38 |
| rommel | m1chael, using a terminal? i have had the file size be too large and error | 11:41 |
| linucks_ | hello, how do I flush the dns cache in ubuntu 13.10? | 11:41 |
| rommel | i would do it from a terminal and look for output | 11:41 |
| m1chael | i did it from the UI | 11:42 |
| rspinuz | m1chael: Did the drive have the proper rw and owner permissions? | 11:42 |
| m1chael | yes | 11:42 |
| Welastevil | so, some expert in ubustu terminal line commands? | 11:43 |
| m1chael | be back in an hour.. keep the replies coming :) | 11:43 |
| rspinuz | m1chael: How big was the largest file | 11:43 |
| Arthar360 | m1chael : Same once happened with me..Did you check the "Thrash" directory ? I found my contents there.. | 11:43 |
| rspinuz | Arthar360: Strange, and the last place you wnat your files your trying to backup | 11:44 |
| rommel | i would still use a term | 11:44 |
| rspinuz | I do every time. I do not believe in GUI's | 11:45 |
| rspinuz | GUI's are for the weak and unknown | 11:45 |
| rommel | well i dont mind gui... but the term will give you feedback sometimes if you are having an issue and it is the basic under pinning of *nix | 11:45 |
| rspinuz | m1chael: Look at this: http://linuxforums.org.uk/index.php?topic=11431.0 | 11:46 |
| rspinuz | I like it just because of the feed back | 11:46 |
| rspinuz | I get to see errors in realtime vs oops I messed up and find out hours later | 11:47 |
| rommel | yeah | 11:47 |
| rommel | well in funtoo/gentoo it is much more obvious then in ubuntu since you are using it strait away to install the system, but not everyone here has that experience | 11:48 |
| rommel | os x was so much nicer when manipulated from the *nix side of it | 11:48 |
| rspinuz | Yeah that is true. If people did then we would not have to answer so many questions | 11:49 |
| rommel | yes and google can answer most everything asked here... rare there is a unique occurance of a problem | 11:50 |
| darthanubis | rommel, amen | 11:51 |
| Guest58632 | In China, many places can't ues google | 11:51 |
| Guest58632 | just baidu... | 11:52 |
| cfhowlett | Guest58632, I'm in Beijing. Google isn't blocked but it IS filtered | 11:52 |
| rspinuz | agreed rommel | 11:52 |
| rspinuz | that sucks on china blocking google | 11:53 |
| rommel | it helps to think that way... i use it very much at work, automotive tech, and it can be misleading but can also be spot on... when you use it you learn to weed the results rather efficiently | 11:53 |
| rommel | speaking of work... i'm out | 11:53 |
| rspinuz | peace out rommel | 11:53 |
| Welastevil | sudo apt-get install bleachbit | 11:54 |
| rspinuz | Welastevil: I think you meant that to go to a command line | 11:54 |

| melodie | 14.04 will be a LTS | 12:01 |
| rymate1234 | 15.04 wont be LTs | 12:01 |
| melodie | if you need to do some tests, then go ahead pick it up | 12:01 |

| melodie | rymate1234, perhaps 16.04 will be? | 12:02 |
| DJones | SidGBF: LTS are every 2 years, so 10.04,12.04 and 14.04, | 12:02 |
| melodie | :D | 12:02 |
| melodie | I guessed! XD | 12:02 |
| SidGBF | melodie: my tests aren't exactly on the ubuntu... I need to compare hhvm x apache x nginx to some projects | 12:02 |
| melodie | is hhvm another web server? | 12:02 |
| melodie | do you need very up to date versions of the web servers? | 12:03 |
| === mior is now known as mimor_ | ||
| SidGBF | melodie: Hip Hop Virtual Machine, I think, a php focused web server created by facebook | 12:03 |
| rspinuz | so that should not be an option | 12:03 |
| SidGBF | Ill use puphpet and have different servers (digital ocean and amazon) so I need to remove most of variables. One of them is OS. | 12:04 |
| SidGBF | rspinuz: ? | 12:04 |
| rspinuz | joking about the facebook server because it is facebook | 12:04 |
| rspinuz | not discrediting it though | 12:04 |
| SidGBF | rspinuz: lol | 12:04 |
| melodie | SidGBF, first time I hear about it, is that open source and is it packaged? | 12:04 |
| SidGBF | melodie: Not sure... Ill use puphpet so it creates a vm ready to be deployed in vagrant and on the server | 12:06 |
| SidGBF | https://puphpet.com/ | 12:06 |
| rspinuz | melodie: https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/wiki/Prebuilt-packages-on-ubuntu-12.04 | 12:06 |

| rspinuz | melodie: I said the same thing | 12:14 |
| rspinuz | I wonder if it works with kvm though | 12:14 |
| SidGBF | melodie: yeah! Ill create 3 VMs to run almost the same thing | 12:14 |
| SidGBF | rspinuz: it uses Vagrant, check it out | 12:14 |

| cfhowlett | !mono | 12:15 |
| tomx | !iron | 12:15 |

| rspinuz | I really gotta start using tiny urls | 12:16 |
| jjavaholic | as in ubuntumono the font not mono | 12:17 |
| rymate1234 | or lmgtfy | 12:17 |
| rymate1234 | isnt it installed by default in ubuntu | 12:17 |

| melodie | SidGBF, I have heard about Vagrant, by pdurbin of the #crimsonfu community, but I have not yet dived into looking at it. I am not english native and reading all this new doc is a bit of climbing a huge mountain for me right now. | 12:18 |
| rspinuz | RTFM people | 12:19 |
| rspinuz | not a hard concept | 12:19 |
| cfhowlett | !rtfm|rspinuz, | 12:19 |
| melodie | I bet Vagrant would be much lighter than Virtualbox | 12:19 |
| rymate1234 | !rtfm | 12:19 |
| rspinuz | Read the **** manual | 12:19 |
| melodie | :p | 12:19 |
| rymate1234 | i know what it means | 12:19 |
| tomx | !rtfm | 12:19 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, not especially helpful so we don't suggest it. | 12:19 |
| rspinuz | what do not suggesting self help | 12:20 |
| rymate1234 | why isnt it helpful | 12:20 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, you misunderstand. when someone comes HERE for help, assume they couldn't find it elsewhere. It's just polite. | 12:20 |
| rspinuz | I am a firm believer in looking for the answer to my issue rather then letting everyone else do it for me | 12:20 |
| rspinuz | Have you seen the questions asked here? | 12:21 |
| cfhowlett | !behelpful|rspinuz please | 12:21 |
| ubottu | rspinuz please: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 12:21 |
| rspinuz | A simple google search would help people but most people dont do that they want others to find the solution for them | 12:21 |
| rspinuz | Well it is a good thing I am not joking then | 12:22 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, if you find this frustrating, perhaps you should volunteer on a different channel. | 12:22 |
| jjavaholic | cfhowlett: i'm assuming it isn't and wanted to know which package contains it | 12:22 |
| SidGBF | melodie: the idea is that you create a VM and all your webserver (or whatever deployable) project you make inside of it. Database, apps, stuff like that, so you don't need to install in your machine. And with puphpet you can easilly deploy too. | 12:22 |
| rspinuz | I do not understand how telling people to read documentation is not helpfull | 12:22 |
| jjavaholic | I have already installed fonts-ubuntu-font-family-console package | 12:22 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, not everyone has your level of google-fu.. if you can't/won't be helpful, that's ok. go to a different channel where your unique talents are more appreciated. | 12:23 |
| rspinuz | I can name a few people that were happy I was here | 12:23 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | Hi | 12:24 |
| DJones | rspinuz: A lot of questions can be answered by reading the manual or by googling, but some users are so new to linux, they may not understand how the manual explains it, or may not know the right terminalology to get a suitable answer, which is why its doesn't normally get suggested here, we'd rather people ask for advice rather than leaving them to struggle | 12:24 |
| cfhowlett | jjavaholic, if you have the ubuntu fonts, mono is included | 12:24 |
| nastya_ | Hi all) | 12:24 |
| melodie | SidGBF, I sure should learn to use it | 12:24 |
| Jack64 | hey guys, does anyone know how to install mod-proxy-html on an already installed apache? I tried sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-proxy-html to no avail | 12:24 |
| rspinuz | My pint is reading documentation net even google but the man page or software docs would do people alot of good and is a much better starting place then here | 12:24 |
| melodie | I'll connect to #crimsonfu and tell them about it too, it will be logged | 12:24 |
| SidGBF | well, thanks for your answers too :) | 12:24 |
| cfhowlett | nastya_, greetings. what is your ubuntu question? | 12:25 |

| jjavaholic | cfhowlett: package name for ubuntu fonts would be? | 12:25 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | My Ubuntu Server is unable to update pakages and download anything | 12:26 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | Help!? | 12:26 |
| melodie | nastya_, have you refreshed the list of applications? "sudo apt-get update" ? | 12:26 |
| nastya_ | so i can`t install any soft. | 12:26 |
| nastya_ | yes | 12:26 |
| nastya_ | and upgrade | 12:26 |
| DJones | Spl0it_S4in7: What version of Ubuntu server are you using | 12:27 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | 13.10 | 12:27 |
| cfhowlett | jjavaholic, wait 1 | 12:27 |
| Jack64 | hey guys, does anyone know how to install mod-proxy-html on an already installed apache? I tried sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-proxy-html to no avail .. | 12:27 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | speed is something around 611 B/s ? o.O | 12:28 |
| cfhowlett | jjavaholic, looks like it should be ttf-ubuntu-font-family | 12:28 |
| cfhowlett | jjavaholic, run apt-cache policy ttf-ubuntu-font-family in a server and it'll return the candidate number and your installed version number | 12:29 |
| DJones | Spl0it_S4in7: Can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file, I wonder whether you're using a repository thats having issues at the moment | 12:30 |
| nastya_ | when i use sudo apt-get update all refreshing without mistakes, but i still can`t install app | 12:30 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | it's not about repo I think | 12:30 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | not able to wget anything | 12:30 |
| nastya_ | ubuntu 12.10, installed 10 mins ago | 12:30 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | when i try to wget anything it's speed is like --.- Kbps | 12:30 |
| cfhowlett | nastya_, end of life, no longer supported. get 12.04 or 13.10 | 12:31 |

| rspinuz | Spl0it_S4in7L Can you ping google.com | 12:32 |
| rspinuz | or any other url | 12:32 |
| SidGBF | melodie: I think that might. Im not speciallist. It depends what each one is doing and the memory to each one. Put 8gb ram and will be safer | 12:32 |
| melodie | I have a question about a headset Logitech connected by USB, because I just tried this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UsbAudioDevices | 12:32 |
| melodie | SidGBF, ok, thanks | 12:33 |
| melodie | I did the configuration very carefully and it is ignored, the laptop still uses the integrated speakers after alsa is reloaded | 12:33 |
| rspinuz | Spl0it_S4in7: Want to make sure it is not a network issue, becaue if you can not wget anything then I would start there | 12:33 |
| melodie | is there a way a usb headset can be used without installing pulseaudio ? | 12:33 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | it was working quite well few moments back when i was on bsd | 12:34 |

| rspinuz | melodie: you can do this with bluetooth and alsa | 12:34 |
| rspinuz | Spl0it_S4in7: Would you mind quickly explaining your setup and what you are trying to do so I can help you in the proper way? | 12:36 |
| === Enissay_ is now known as Enissay | ||
| rspinuz | You lost me with the bsd part | 12:36 |

| rspinuz | chfowlett: Mind a pm | 12:37 |
| cfhowlett | rspinuz, ok | 12:37 |
| rspinuz | Spl0it_S4in7: and after your reinstall your network did not work? | 12:37 |
| Spl0it_S4in7 | i can connect to it via ssh but nothing else , can't update pakages nor wget anything | 12:38 |
| melodie | rspinuz, how could I use bluetooth for a usb connected headset? I don't quite get it | 12:38 |
| Jack64 | hey guys, does anyone know how to install mod-proxy-html on an already installed apache? I tried sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-proxy-html to no avail .. | 12:39 |
| rspinuz | melodie: Sorry. The bluetooth part would be for non usb and alsa for your usb. I was trying to give alternatives to pulseaudio for you. | 12:39 |
| melodie | Spl0it_S4in7, I think you just have been told to start your sentences with the nick of the person you are talking to. Please do it! | 12:39 |
| jjavaholic | sudo apt-cache policy fonts-ubuntu-font-family-console: http://pastebin.com/zpKEFNw6 what does this mean for ubuntumono font? | 12:40 |
| melodie | rspinuz, would using jack a good idea? pa has never been very stable for the use of this headset so far | 12:40 |
| cfhowlett | jjavaholic, sorry, great firewall of china won't let me see. but if candidate states anything other than "not installed" then you've got the font! | 12:41 |
| melodie | jjavaholic, you don't need sudo for "apt-cache policy" | 12:41 |
| melodie | the fonts you say are for use in the console | 12:41 |
| jjavaholic | there are also used in the code segments @ help.ubuntu.com | 12:42 |
| melodie | jjavaholic, it means that the fonts in your console are ok to be read, if you don't put mono type fonts in a console it is hard to read | 12:42 |
| rspinuz | melodie: not sure | 12:42 |
| rspinuz | Jack64: http://bikerjared.wordpress.com/2012/10/18/ubuntu-12-04-mod-proxy-install-and-configuration/ | 12:42 |
| melodie | ok, I'll try to find some docs about that | 12:42 |
| jjavaholic | the example of not using ubuntumono when it should is here: http://i.imgur.com/jwuKBRw.png on help.ubuntu.com | 12:44 |
| rspinuz | melodie: usb headset for what? | 12:44 |
| rspinuz | melodie: headphones or a mic and speaker? | 12:44 |
| rspinuz | do they even make usb headphones? | 12:45 |
| jjavaholic | I now suspect it is using the first fallback font which is courier and not the second fallback which would be monospace. which I would be alright with | 12:45 |
| mrchris | Hi. Is there an easy way to get my a monitor connected to my laptop via DisplayPort to work? All I see is a green screen. Using ubuntu Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS with kernel 3.8.0-29-generic | 12:45 |
| rspinuz | mrchris: Did you set it up in your display manager? | 12:46 |
| === mudo_ is now known as mudo | ||
| jjavaholic | which would be "font-family: UbuntuMono,courier,monospace;" | 12:46 |
| rspinuz | mrchris: there is a function key on most laptops that trigger that. Most times it is the function key + f4 yours might be different | 12:47 |
| Jack64 | rspinuz: thanks :D | 12:47 |
| mrchris | rspinuz: It isn't visible in the "Displays" dialog box - I only see my laptop monitor and my Dell 24" vga monitor. | 12:47 |
| rspinuz | Jack64: No problem | 12:47 |
| rspinuz | mrchris: How many monitor ports do you have on your laptop | 12:48 |
| melodie | the config works | 12:48 |
| melodie | I had to restart the system ^^ | 12:48 |
| Poindexter_ | I was on a website and it had an IRC like web chat Javascript. Can someone direct me to something like that? | 12:49 |
| mrchris | Spl0it_S4in7: Just one VGA port. I have a displaylink usb adapter that connects my laptop to a monitor via a usb cable. I just see green. | 12:49 |
| cfhowlett | Poindexter_, http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels= | 12:49 |

| Poindexter_ | I am looking for a something for the School that I teach in as an instructor so the students can talk when they log onto my server. | 12:50 |
| rspinuz | Poindexter: Mind a pm? | 12:51 |
| rspinuz | seeing as to how this is off topic | 12:51 |
| Poindexter_ | I don't want to use freenode as an intermediary server. I want it on my personal server. | 12:51 |
| melodie | Poindexter_, http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels= | 12:51 |
| melodie | use that | 12:51 |
| melodie | ok | 12:51 |
| melodie | then you need something else | 12:51 |
| melodie | you want to setup an IRC server | 12:52 |
| Poindexter_ | I have a Debian IRC server set up. | 12:52 |
| rspinuz | Poindexter: That is off topic in this channel. If you want help please accept a pm from someone in this channel or move to a different channel. | 12:52 |
| Poindexter_ | Well is anyone wants to PM me that would be kindly accepted. Thanks. | 12:53 |
| cfhowlett | !debian|Poindexter_, | 12:53 |
| ubottu | Poindexter_,: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process.

| DJones | Poindexter_: The freenode web irc uses http://www.qwebirc.org/ thats possibly a good starting point, I guess they may have their own irc channel, or maybe the people in #freenode may be able to give you some guidance on where to look | 12:53 |

| phaidros | HotSwap: on a non x console: sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart | 17:00 |
| rommel | HotSwap, yes you need to exit X rmmod nvidiaa then modprrobe the new driver | 17:01 |
| phaidros | HotSwap: that restarts the X session, tho it might not use the new driver | 17:01 |
| phaidros | rommel: ack | 17:01 |
| HotSwap | sexy. thanks rommel, I'll try that | 17:01 |
| rommel | just speel it correctly...lol | 17:01 |

| batman | when I enter exit, it brings me back to original user? | 17:02 |
| HotSwap | rommel, aren't all versions just called 'nvidia' though? | 17:02 |
| phaidros | batman: su root start a shell as root, as soon as you "exit" you leave that shell .. hence being back in the former one | 17:02 |
| batman | phaidros, so if I keep switching users | 17:03 |
| batman | it keeps layering and layering? | 17:03 |

| batman | phaidros, ty | 17:03 |
| phaidros | it is actually not very useful to do that way ;) | 17:04 |
| batman | phaidros, how would you prefer it? | 17:04 |

| rommel | HotSwap, not sure thats possible | 17:06 |
| Hornet | as this is a headless server, very important issue | 17:06 |
| HotSwap | yeah was afraid of that. thanks rommel. I'm asking in #nvidia in case they have any ideas.. | 17:07 |
| rommel | Hornet, is there no default defined in the grub.conf | 17:07 |
| Hornet | rommel, entry 0 | 17:07 |
| Hornet | see the pastebin | 17:08 |
| rommel | HotSwap, you could use different kernels even if only in name and have the different drivers built against each but it would require reboot | 17:08 |

| thoonai | hey | 17:57 |
| nico_ | kostkon, i had wifi working once after install(with internet connection) but after reboot, wifi gone again | 17:57 |
| thoonai | how do I get the programs names in a packagE? | 17:57 |
| === ido_ is now known as Guest67926 | ||
| kostkon | nico_, have you tried to setup a new wireless connection in your network manager | 17:58 |
| thoonai | so if I add the oracle vbox repository, I want to install via script vbox-4.* if possible the newest | 17:58 |
| nico_ | kostkon, lets see | 17:58 |
| jo_ | sohail-ahmed: Sounds like you have no DNS entries. | 17:58 |
| kostkon | nico_, is any connection being listed if you click on the icon and then select edit connections. is there an icon in your tray | 17:59 |
| thoonai | ok nevermind | 17:59 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_ what should I do? | 17:59 |
| nico_ | kostkon, network icon has ethernet cable icon, wifi says 'disabled' | 17:59 |
| Cheekio | Anyone have the md5sum of the 13.10 desktop x64 iso handy? | 17:59 |
| kostkon | nico_, ok | 18:00 |
| jo_ | Can you connect to Google via http://74.125.131.103 ? | 18:00 |
| nico_ | kostkon, new connection on correct ssid does nothing | 18:00 |
| kostkon | nico_, try again to unblock it like this sudo rfkill unblock acer-wireless | 18:01 |
| sohail-ahmed | jo_, no | 18:02 |
| kostkon | nico_, also check the output of nm-tool | 18:02 |
| jo_ | So HTTP traffic isn't making it. | 18:02 |
| nico_ | kostkon, nico@nico-netbook:~$ sudo rfkill unblock acer-wireless | 18:02 |
| nico_ | Bogus unblock argument 'acer-wireless'. | 18:02 |
| jo_ | If you do `telnet 74.125.131.103 80`, do you get a connection? | 18:02 |
| kostkon | nico_, hmm right maybe sudo rfkill unblock wifi | 18:02 |
| jo_ | If you get a 'RETURN CHARACTER is ^]', that's fine. | 18:03 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_, is it 103 space 80, correct? | 18:03 |
| jo_ | Yes. | 18:03 |
| sohail-ahmed | its still tying | 18:03 |
| nico_ | kostkon, nm-tool: state: unavailable default:no | 18:03 |
| sohail-ahmed | **trying | 18:03 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_, and it says unable to connect to remote host | 18:04 |
| nico_ | kostkon, rfkill unblock wifi also failed | 18:04 |
| jo_ | Do other machines on the same network have access? | 18:05 |
| sohail-ahmed | yes | 18:05 |
| sohail-ahmed | I am talking to you from the same network | 18:05 |
| jo_ | But not the same machine. | 18:05 |
| sohail-ahmed | yes, off course its my laptop | 18:05 |
| sohail-ahmed | that is creating problems | 18:06 |
| sohail-ahmed | and I am talking to you through pc | 18:06 |
| jo_ | I'm guessing your laptop is wireless and your PC is wired? | 18:06 |
| sohail-ahmed | no. both are wired | 18:06 |
| jo_ | Oh. | 18:06 |
| jo_ | Hmm. | 18:07 |
| jo_ | Can you run this on your laptop: `dhclient eth0`? | 18:07 |
| jo_ | Might need sudo on that. | 18:07 |
| kostkon | nico_, with and without sudo right? what about your bios. you have said something about it | 18:07 |
| folivora | Anyone familiar with this issue when trying to get Crowd Auth working: http://pastie.org/8954148 | 18:07 |
| nico_ | kostkon, in bios i can choose wifi disabled/last state | 18:07 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_ , nothing happened | 18:08 |
| jo_ | Nothing? | 18:08 |
| kostkon | nico_, you mean enabled/disabled/last state? | 18:08 |
| sohail-ahmed | yes nothing | 18:08 |
| kostkon | nico_, or just disabled and last state? | 18:09 |
| sohail-ahmed | meaning no output | 18:09 |
| nico_ | kostkon, no just disabled and laste state | 18:09 |
| jo_ | That's quite odd. | 18:09 |
| jo_ | Oh. Leave off the `s. | 18:09 |
| jo_ | sudo dhclient eth0 | 18:09 |
| sohail-ahmed | yes this is what I did earlier | 18:09 |
| jo_ | Hmm. | 18:10 |
| jo_ | What does ifconfig say? | 18:10 |
| jo_ | Do you see a router? | 18:10 |
| sohail-ahmed | and I pursume that it was ethzero | 18:10 |
| kostkon | nico_, hmm what would happen do yhou think if you disabled it from the bios and then tried to reenable it after you have booted into ubuntu using the keyboard wifi key | 18:10 |
| jo_ | Correct. | 18:10 |
| nico_ | kostkon, good idea, let me try that | 18:10 |
| nico_ | kostkon, tnx for support mate and wish me luck brb | 18:11 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_, ifconfig gives my output for eth0 and lo. Do you want the output in pastebin | 18:11 |
| sohail-ahmed | ? | 18:11 |
| kostkon | nico_, good luck :P | 18:11 |
| jo_ | Sure. | 18:11 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_, any other out put? | 18:12 |
| sohail-ahmed | meaning do you need any other output, since I would be using usb | 18:12 |
| jo_ | Could you do a tracert to www.google.com? | 18:12 |
| jo_ | And a ping www.google.com? | 18:12 |
| jo_ | I heard you can ping other addresses, but not connect. | 18:13 |
| jo_ | Did you attempt to ping Google or just another machine on your network? | 18:13 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_, I can only ping local addresses | 18:13 |
| jo_ | Oh. | 18:13 |
| jo_ | Nevermind, then. | 18:13 |
| sohail-ahmed | for example, ping -c3 192.168.9.138 | 18:13 |
| jo_ | That narrows it down. | 18:13 |
| jo_ | Either: (1) There's a misconfigured route, or (2) your router is blocking traffic from your laptop. | 18:14 |
| clue_h | or dns settings/servers are not quite right | 18:15 |

| kostkon | nico_, yes. did oyu manage to enable it | 18:16 |
| nico_ | kostkon, same: softblocked:YES | 18:16 |
| nico_ | kostkon, ubuntu booted the ledlight i think, but doesnt sees wifi networks | 18:16 |
| nico_ | kostkon, still says: wireless networks, wireless is disabled | 18:17 |
| nico_ | in grey | 18:17 |
| jo_ | sohail-ahmed: I see nothign odd. :( | 18:17 |
| kostkon | nico_, right. and in your connection settings you don't have any wireless connections setup already, do you? | 18:18 |
| jo_ | It might be worth running `ifup eth0`, just to try it. | 18:18 |
| jo_ | ifdown eth0; ifup eth0 | 18:18 |
| sohail-ahmed | moreover I don't have those arrows in my indicator plugin | 18:18 |
| jo_ | That should drop the connection to your laptop and restore it. | 18:18 |
| nico_ | kostkon, no and im on cable now | 18:18 |
| jo_ | I'm starting to suspect that perhaps there are no chipset drivers for your laptop's networking. | 18:19 |
| jo_ | I had that problem on my desktop. :( | 18:19 |
| kostkon | nico_, what's your kernel version? | 18:19 |
| jo_ | But the device _does_ show up. | 18:19 |
| sohail-ahmed | Jo_,sudo ifup eth0 gives, Ignoring unknown interface eh0=eth0 | 18:19 |

| sohail-ahmed | JO_, if down interface not configured | 18:21 |
| kostkon | nico_, yeah that's the saucy kernel | 18:21 |
| sohail-ahmed | but the laptop connections was working fine till two to three weeks ago | 18:21 |
| nico_ | kostkon, one day i struggled with this 'last state' bios setting on xp aswell, think it needed specific medion wifi software | 18:21 |
| kostkon | nico_, hmm | 18:21 |
| nico_ | kostkon, maybe some wifi driver patch i need? | 18:22 |
| sohail-ahmed | it worked | 18:22 |
| kostkon | nico_, don't think so | 18:22 |
| sohail-ahmed | JO_, it worked | 18:22 |
| sohail-ahmed | I can open google | 18:23 |
| nico_ | kostkon, want the full output of lshw -C network? | 18:23 |
| kostkon | nico_, and nm-tool and iwconfig probably. if you paste them on paste.ubuntu.com | 18:23 |
| sohail-ahmed | perhaps your sudo ifup eh0 does the trick | 18:23 |

| raj__ | my system does not recognise installed Oracle JRE & installs OpenJDK packages.. while i m trying to install tomcat7 on ubuntu 12.04. | 19:31 |
| raj__ | I have Oracle JRE installed on my system. However while installing tomcat7 with apt-get it does not recognize my installed oracle java(installed using tar from oracle website), but on another system it recognizes the oracle java installed by webup8 ppa | 19:32 |
| kyle__ | Q for people managing multiple user-laptops: can you setup persistant reverse VNC connections from the laptops, and just connect to the sessions as needed? | 19:32 |
| raj__ | how do I make my manual oracle java installation be recognized by tomcat ? My main motive is to prevent OpenJDK & other related installations worth 80MB using Oracle JRE as replacement for that. | 19:32 |
| yeyeman | "extra ffmpeg codecs for the Chromium Browser" | 19:33 |
| yeyeman | I don't even have it installed | 19:33 |
| rww | raj__: Oracle changed their distribution terms, so Ubuntu cannot package or support it any more. Packages installed through apt-get recognize only dependencies installed through apt-get. You'd need to use that same PPA on your current system (not supported), package Oracle Java yourself (not supported), hack around the dependencies using the "equivs" program or something (not supported), or migrate your application to use OpenJDK. | 19:33 |
| yeyeman | How do I get rid of this ubuntu bloatware | 19:34 |
| === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 | ||
| kyle__ | yeyeman: Install ubuntu-server, then only add what packages you need. Maybe lubuntu-desktop | 19:34 |
| raj__ | rww: I properly configured my system to use oracle java using " update-alternatives --config java"(similary for javac) , so shouldn't it be recognizing installed oracle java now ? | 19:35 |
| rww | raj__: which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 19:35 |
| evilbug | i have ubuntu server 12.04 with openbox running. although i've installed network-manager-gnome and it works, if i try to connect to a protected wifi network the credentials window doesn't pop up. how can i fix this? | 19:35 |
| raj__ | rww: 12. 04 | 19:36 |
| krizoek | how can i check if acpi is loaded or not? | 19:36 |
| yeyeman | kyle__, I don't want to run lxde on my >1k £ computer, but I don't want updates for chromuim either | 19:36 |
| raj__ | rww: server edition 12.04 | 19:36 |
| yeyeman | some middle of the road solution would be optimal | 19:37 |
| kyle__ | yeyeman: I don't play games, so I actually _like_ the idea of lxde or fluxbox on a >1k $/£/€ computer | 19:38 |
| rww | raj__: Unless you got Oracle Java from a package or PPA that provided the default-jre-headless or java6-runtime-headless or java6-runtime or java-6-runtime package names, it wouldn't recognize it, no. | 19:38 |
| rww | raj__: the alternatives system doesn't affect package dependencies at all | 19:38 |
| yeyeman | kyle__, me neither, but I spend so much time on this comp that I require something more complete DE than those you mentioned | 19:40 |
| kyle__ | Ahh I gotcha. | 19:40 |
| yeyeman | still no need for chromium updates though!!!!! | 19:41 |
| kostkon | yeyeman, remove the package | 19:41 |
| yeyeman | kostkon, how? | 19:41 |
| kostkon | yeyeman, easy way, search for it in the software centre, or to play it safe, use the terminal, see if it will try to remove other packages along with it sudo apt-get remove chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra | 19:42 |
| raj__ | rww : would me installing these(default-jre-headless or java6-runtime-headless or java6-runtime or java-6-runtime) packages manually, make it work ? Or is it like I cannot anyway use Oracle Java(downloaded tar from oracle site) with tomcat7 (This would be a really big common problem for most java developers..) ? | 19:42 |
| kyle__ | raj__: It's really not hard to install the oracle java, and update the alternatives to use it as the system java. Although usually you need to at least inustall jre-headless first to set it up. | 19:43 |
| rww | raj__: most Java developers on Ubuntu switched to OpenJDK, so it's not a big common problem. | 19:43 |
| kyle__ | Blah, Ic an't type worth crap today. | 19:44 |
| rww | raj__: and those packages are only provided in Ubuntu's official supported repositories by OpenJDK. | 19:44 |
| rww | raj__: If you find some Oracle packages that provide them, then that would make it work. | 19:44 |
| rww | (but is not supported, because Ubuntu can't have them in their repositories, thanks to Oracle's silly licensing terms) | 19:44 |
| kyle__ | raj__: This is for deb, but it should be the same for ubuntu. http://petuu.org/?e=26 | 19:45 |
| raj__ | rww: actually I am stuck with oracle java becuase the database that I use(cassandra) highly recommends oracle jre.. | 19:45 |
| yeyeman | kostkon, thank you | 19:45 |
| Beldar | yeyeman, You can install synaptic and lock packages if needed. | 19:45 |

| kyle__ | rww: It's not silly if you're oracle. If you're oracle, you know the world rightly belongs to you, and should start paying licensing. | 19:45 |
| yeyeman | well if it would only get updates for actually installed programs that would be a good start, but I guess I will have to deal with this some other time | 19:47 |
| raj__ | kyle__ : okay so I need to install jre-headless(only this) prior to extracting the jre folder from downloaded tar from oracle site & following the steps in the link you provided? | 19:48 |
| pancaker | sa | 19:48 |
| rww | default-jre-headless is OpenJDK. | 19:49 |
| raj__ | kyle__, actually i had installed oracle java, & configured via update-alternatives to use oracle java but had no idea about jre-headless, could I just install it to avoid openjdk installs by tomcat7 install ? | 19:52 |
| sammy | im trying to do an offline fsck and im using an external drive with ubuntu. when i boot from that device (sdc) and choose the 'drop to root prompt' option, i find sda1 has been mounted as root. why would my recovery mode on an sdc mount sda1 as root? my fstab has UUIDs, not absolute device names | 19:52 |
| rww | raj__: You literally just said "could I just install [openjdk] to avoid openjdk installs" | 19:54 |
| rww | i regret to inform you that apt-get does not participate in doublethink. | 19:54 |
| anis | Hi people. i got little issue. Got Ubuntu with Bumblebee succefuly installed. Only Steam isnt running correctly http://pastebin.com/nDCKNRfq | 19:55 |
| anis | any suggestions?! | 19:55 |
| raj__ | rww: sorry I have no idea but I just want to make the untar-ed jre from oracle to work with tomcat7.. | 19:55 |
| rww | raj__: 19:33:47 < rww> raj__: Oracle changed their distribution terms, so Ubuntu cannot package or support it any more. Packages installed through apt-get recognize only dependencies installed through apt-get. You'd need to use that same PPA on your current system (not supported), package Oracle Java yourself (not supported), hack around the | 19:55 |
| rww | dependencies usng the "equivs" program or something (not supp"orted), or migrate your application to use OpenJDK. | 19:55 |
| rww | raj__: and since the last option will not work for you, your issue is not supported here. | 19:56 |
| sammy | anis that log at the begining says to me 32/64 bit issues | 19:56 |

| kostkon | anis, it has already become 14.04 for all i know | 20:04 |

| kyle__ | FuuqUmiist: look over on linuxprinting.org They've got a database of known working drivers. | 20:11 |
| FuuqUmiist | kyle__ and if there is none there i guess the printer won't work on linux? | 20:12 |
| Dbugger | Hi guys | 20:13 |
| kyle__ | FuuqUmiist: Not necisarily, but probably. There are a few printers that have their own esoteric drivers that are vendor supported, and those aren't listed there. Paritally because those vendor supported drivers are crap *cough cough cannon* | 20:13 |
| sarthak | Hello Dbugger | 20:13 |
| kyle__ | FuuqUmiist: If your printer speaks one of the common printer languages, it may work without a printer-specific driver. IE it speaks PCL or PS. | 20:13 |
| Dbugger | I have a question that has been going around my mind for a while. If I configure my VPS to accept only login with SSH Keys, and disable the password login, and then, I happen to lose for any reason my private key, wouldnt that lock me out of my own VPS? | 20:14 |
| kyle__ | Dbugger: Yeah. Unless it also had some sort of remote console access. | 20:14 |
| kyle__ | Dbugger: The key is, don't loose your key. If you'll pardon the pun. | 20:14 |

| Dbugger | kyle__, do you back up your key pairs? | 20:17 |
| kyle__ | Dbugger: Yes, but not over the could. | 20:17 |
| Dbugger | kyle__, that was my worry. That would only make it more vulnerable | 20:18 |

| Dbugger | Wow | 20:18 |
| Dbugger | That is some serious stuff :D | 20:18 |
| kyle__ | I stash burned optical disks once every few months, and I keep a usb key in my sock drawer with the vitals as well. Not terribly complex, but it works. | 20:19 |
| Dbugger | Ok, a follow up question: My VPS provider allows me to add SSH keys though the web interface. To do this I only have to write my email and password. But doesn't that mean that a hacker would have an easier way trying to hack my VPS account, and insert his own keys, than attacking directly the server? | 20:20 |
| kyle__ | Dbugger: anymore, all the pictures you have of your kids are digital. It's worth it to store backups like that. | 20:20 |
| kyle__ | I don't know. That seems a bit odd to me to do it that way.... if you're on a modern system, you should have ssh-copy-id. You can use that to copy your keys to the VPS and set it up nicely, without having to use a webpage... | 20:21 |

Or when I move to another network, it will not accept the wireless password or keeps asking me for it every few minutes.

I am currently reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx but I would appreciate some help on what | 21:04 |
| tmmunq | use 1310 | 21:05 |
| misingnoglic | I can't cause it doesn't support my wireless drivers -.- | 21:05 |
| misingnoglic | isn't 12.04 supposed to be the stable release? | 21:05 |
| kostkon | EleanorEllis, is it coming from network manager, ie actually asking the wifi password or coming from "gnome" asking you to give it the password for the keyring | 21:06 |
| EleanorEllis | kostkon: The box is asking for the wifi password not the keyring password so I assume it is coming from network manager | 21:07 |
| BradPJ | misingnoglic: The stable release means packages are frozen, for the most part, as I understand it. So by using 12.04 you are using old, but stable software. If there was an issue with drivers 2 years ago but has subsequently been fixed, this issues will remain in 12.04. | 21:07 |
| kostkon | EleanorEllis, ok. you might get better results with the open source driver. | 21:07 |
| EleanorEllis | kostkon: I notice that the wl driver version installed on my computer is 6.20.155.1, whereas the latest version from http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php is 6.30.223.141 | 21:08 |

| EleanorEllis | kostkon: When you say "the open source driver", do you mean the b43 driver mentioned at http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 ? | 21:11 |

| Chris23 | hello guys. i have a problem to install maxview. it want a packet of me, which is installed already as a newer version, but i still cannot install it. someone can help me pls? | 21:14 |
| Jordan_U | Noiro: Packages are installed in directories outside of /home/. /home/ is only for files particular to a user. | 21:14 |
| Noiro | >.< Crap. My SSD isn't very big, I was told / wouldn't hold much | 21:15 |
| Jordan_U | Noiro: It depends on what you install. Packages containing a lot of images (like games) can get fairly big. | 21:16 |
| Noiro | I recently installed the Student version of mathematica for my uni, that was about 3GB. | 21:16 |
| EleanorEllis1 | kostkon: I have removed the proprietary driver, so I will reboot and see if I can reconnect. It looks like I might need to install new firmware into the card to use the open source driver. It seems that the BCM4313 is not fully supported, according to http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211 | 21:22 |
| kostkon | EleanorEllis1, it should work fine though | 21:23 |
| EleanorEllis1 | kostkon: Without needing to upgrade the firmware you mean? | 21:23 |
| kostkon | EleanorEllis1, no idea about that sorry | 21:23 |
| kostkon | EleanorEllis1, all i know is that brcmsmac works fine on my netbook with 4313 | 21:24 |
| EleanorEllis1 | kostkon: OK. And wl didn't work properly for you? | 21:25 |
| kostkon | EleanorEllis1, both of them work fine. i think brcmsmac is more stable as a matter of fact | 21:26 |
| EleanorEllis1 | kostkon: OK. Well, I will reboot now. Wish me luck! | 21:26 |
| kostkon | EleanorEllis1, good luck! | 21:26 |

| Guest80442 | Hello, I have a gfx card issue. The cursor leaves a trail and the screen does not refresh. | 21:39 |
| kyle__ | Have you tried turning it off and back on again? | 21:39 |
| Guest80442 | Oh... | 21:39 |
| Guest80442 | Well, right now I have an impromptu solition | 21:40 |
| Guest80442 | I have a script that keeps running xrefresh. | 21:40 |
| kyle__ | Sorry, it was a joke. Did you install anything non-standard, like perhaps the closed-source nvidia driver? | 21:40 |
| Guest80442 | No, but I do have a nvidia card. | 21:41 |
| kyle__ | Guest80442: Generally the open source drivers work very nicely, but once in a while... | 21:44 |
| Guest80442 | Hello? | 21:44 |
| Guest80442 | kyle__: okay, how do i fix this? | 21:44 |
| cynfor | I am mounting an internal ext4 partition using udisks. Would doing it using mount or fstab have any advantages over udisks (mounted using fuse )? | 21:44 |
| kyle__ | go ahead and try installing the nvidia drivers and tools and setup. I do have one box myself that locks up the graphics wit the opensource drivers. | 21:44 |
| Guest80442 | kyle__: Are they in the software centre? | 21:45 |
| kyle__ | Guest80442: In the software center, enable multiverse, search for nvidia. | 21:45 |
| Guest80442 | Okay, how do I know if i have multiverse enable (sry, only been using ubuntu for 1 year) | 21:45 |
| kyle__ | Guest80442: go to the edit menu, software sources. | 21:46 |
| kyle__ | In software center that is. | 21:46 |
| Guest80442 | Thanks. :-) | 21:46 |
| kyle__ | basically, click all the checkboxes ;) | 21:46 |
| === einar__ is now known as EinarLathe | ||
| Jordan_U | cynfor: ext4 partitions shouldn't be mounted via fuse, udisks vs fstab doesn't affect fuse vs kernel space filesystem driver. | 21:47 |
| * kyle__ sighs. spinny disks are so slow after you're used to ssds. | 21:47 | |
| Guest80442 | kyle__: Okay, which nvidia driver do i get? | 21:47 |
| kyle__ | Guest80442: Probably whatever the latest is. | 21:47 |
| Guest80442 | So, Nvidia binary x.org current? | 21:47 |
| kyle__ | Guest80442: Yeah. Should be it. | 21:48 |
| Jordan_U | cynfor: If you use a /etc/fstab entry then you can have the filesystem mounted (or an automount created for the mountpoint) at boot. It's also a more "traditional" place to configure such things, so if this is going to always be mounted, or mounted using special options, then having it in /etc/fstab is good from a self documetation standpoint. | 21:49 |
| Guest80442 | kyle__: Okay, installing. | 21:49 |
| cynfor | Jordan_U, ok, can we make udisks do it ? I don't want it mounted always, only when opened in a file manager. | 21:50 |
| Guest80442 | kyle__: Does it matter that I just happened to run boot-repair on a live CD so I could boot back to ubuntu before this issue happened? | 21:51 |
| Jordan_U | cynfor: What problem are you having with your existing configuration? Mounting via Nautilus should work out of the box. | 21:51 |
| Guest80442 | kyle__: i'm restarting, now. | 21:52 |
| cynfor | Jordan_U, As of now I am doing it via udisks using thunar. I tried fstab but partition doesn't pop in devices list in thunar/nautilus. | 21:54 |
| Jordan_U | cynfor: What problem are you having with your existing configuration? | 21:56 |
| Otterley | is there an archive in which one can find older releases of security update packages? | 21:57 |

| Otterley | TJ-, that doesn't appear to be it | 21:59 |
| === Guest98091 is now known as Sweyn | ||
| Jordan_U | cynfor: Why do you think that you're ever using fuse? Like I said, fstab vs udisks is completely orthoginal to fuse vs kernelspace filesytem drivers (and nobody, except the occasional crazy person like myself, ever uses fuse for ext4). | 21:59 |
| TJ- | Otterley: If however you mean superseded packages, then you can check in http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ manually, or look on Launchpad for the package builds | 22:00 |
| Otterley | TJ-: nope, not there either | 22:00 |
| TJ- | Otterley: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/eglibc/2.15-0ubuntu10.4 | 22:01 |
| Bashing-om | Otterley: Not a good idea to mix versions- dependency issues - but, this -> http://packages.ubuntu.com/ <- (??). | 22:01 |
| Otterley | I don't intend to mix them. | 22:02 |
| Otterley | I had a core file, I wanted to install the debug symbols, and the apt-get happily upgraded both glibc and installed the new version's debug symbols, which instantly made my core file useless. | 22:02 |
| TJ- | Otterley: As you'll see it has been removed from disk, but you can rebuild it yourself from the sources which are still there | 22:02 |
| cynfor | Jordan_U, Oh, I was thinking that since udisk mounts without root permissions, it must be using fuse. Looks like I am wrong. | 22:03 |

| Otterley | you mean core file analysis? | 22:12 |
| Otterley | or ensuring one's systems are identically configured? | 22:12 |
| TJ- | I prefer local package cache/mirrors for this reason, I can control the expiry policy and move expired packages to back-up | 22:13 |
| Jordan_U | Otterley: Core file analysis. | 22:13 |
| Otterley | I think they're both good reasons, personally | 22:14 |
| TJ- | Otterley: which arch do you need of that package, I may be able to recall it from back-up if I've every had the ddeb for it | 22:15 |

| bitvilag | there is a router - openwrt that is pointing 10.9.0.1 address to one of the servers in the subnet 192.168.1.22 and well when I traceroute 10.9.0.1 it hops to 192.168.1.22 but then it timeouts and wont go further even though on 192.168.1.22 there is a route to 10.9.0.1 am I missing something? | 22:48 |
| bitvilag | TJ anything? | 22:51 |
| TJ- | bitvilag: That has confused me! | 22:51 |
| bitvilag | haha | 22:51 |
| TJ- | bitvilag: openwrt is in which subnet? | 22:52 |
| bitvilag | well the thing is that my openwrt router is not strong enough for handling VPN so I installed VPN on one of the virtual machines and its currently running on it. The network 10.9.0.0 is accessable from that vm server however it is not from others since thats not the router of this subment (192.168.1.0/24) so I had to do a static route from my router to this server vm so all the workstations in | 22:53 |
| bitvilag | this subnet will have access to the vpn | 22:53 |
| bitvilag | openwrt is in 192.168.1.0 | 22:53 |
| JFranks | Been struggling with some old Sun X4100 servers and 12.04.4 LTS.. Last install is the closest yet.. it all goes well till the final reboot where it does a "mode not supported" error on the LCD and even after editing /etc/default/grub and removing the graphical menu/console only comment.. still! .. Next reboot will try to get into the rescue mode off the installer DVD and then mount root and then edit the /etc/default/grub but this time uncomment | 22:54 |
| JFranks | the 640x480 line.. | 22:54 |
| daftykins | bitvilag: methinks a diagram is needed | 22:55 |
| TJ- | bitvilag: ahhhh, OK, now I'm getting the idea. So is the VM server configured to IP forward? | 22:55 |
| TJ- | bitvilag: the openwrt needs to know to "via" the 10.9.0.0 to "vm-server" over a LAN i/f, "vm-server" has a default route to 192.168.0.openwrt | 22:56 |
| bitvilag | thats working | 22:57 |
| bitvilag | so if I traceroute | 22:57 |
| TJ- | bitvilag: all other hosts will use their default route to openwrt for 10.9.0.0 traffic, which will then send it to vm-server | 22:57 |
| bitvilag | it does actually reach 192.168.1.22 | 22:57 |
| bitvilag | exactly | 22:57 |
| bitvilag | but the problem is that 192.168.1.22 is actually a bridged interface (sorry) its actually not a vm but the host that is keeping the vms. Is that a problem? | 22:58 |
| TJ- | bitvilag: does the VM guest have a default route to its host? or to the openwrt? does the guest know about 192.168.1.0/24 at all? | 22:58 |
| bitvilag | i answerd ur question before you wrote it haha | 22:59 |
| bitvilag | I was planning to create the vm but I ended up just installing it on the host. I forgot | 22:59 |
| TJ- | bitvilag: layer 2 bridge shouldn't affect it, each segment sees the traffic | 22:59 |
| VarmVaffel | If there's any iptables experts here, what does the numbers after ":INPUT DROP" mean in the rules? | 22:59 |

| daedeloth | I've installed ubuntu on my laptop but for some reason it keeps botting windows | 23:00 |
| daedeloth | no grub2 | 23:00 |
| daedeloth | I'm pretty sure I've installed grub2 on the master boot record | 23:00 |
| TJ- | VarmVaffel: where are you seeing those? | 23:01 |
| daftykins | daedeloth: UEFI installs? | 23:01 |
| gomi | How do I get Syanptic to open from the Dash? I can run it from the command line. Any suggestions? | 23:01 |
| daedeloth | I don't really know what uefi is to be honest | 23:01 |
| daedeloth | I also didn't see any options | 23:01 |
| VarmVaffel | TJ-, they are part of the rules generated by iptables-save | 23:01 |
| OerHeks | gomi, first type it right > synaptic | 23:01 |
| daftykins | daedeloth: go into your 'BIOS' setup and check the boot device is the disk and not 'windows boot manager' | 23:01 |
| daedeloth | I can only select the hard drive | 23:02 |
| TJ- | VarmVaffel: "man iptables-save", see the "--counters" option | 23:02 |
| daedeloth | CSM is enabled, when I disable it my hard drive boot options dissapear | 23:02 |
| VarmVaffel | TJ-, alright, thanks | 23:02 |
| daedeloth | I understand this CSM thing is "the old way"? | 23:02 |
| daftykins | daedeloth: ok, so you're in legacy mode - is it win7 then? | 23:02 |
| awesomess3 | ice9, did you read the various manuals/instruction-guides? https://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+joystick | 23:02 |
| daedeloth | daftykins, no, it's windows 8.1, but I think I had csm enabled while installing windows | 23:02 |
| TJ- | daedeloth: CSM means if it can't find an EFI system partition, it'll try an old fashioned BIOS/MBR style boot from sector 0 | 23:02 |
| daftykins | daedeloth: still, check an option sometimes called 'Hard Drive BBS properties' for which disk is considered primary | 23:03 |
| bitvilag | TJ I sent you pm so its cleaner | 23:03 |
| daedeloth | I can only select the drive, not the partitions | 23:03 |
| daftykins | i'm not talking partitions | 23:03 |
| daftykins | but ok, sounds like it's not there | 23:03 |
| daedeloth | ok, the one drive that's in there is selected as first boot device :) | 23:03 |
| gomi | Okay, how do I get Synaptic to open from the Dash? I can run it from the command line, but if I click on it in the Dash or launcher, nothing happens? | 23:03 |
| daedeloth | just now I reinstalled ubuntu with csm disabled, but it still couldn't find any efi system partitions | 23:04 |
| Gasseus | So I'm having troubles getting ip forwarding working. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7127841/ <- Details I think are relevant. What can I try to figure it out? | 23:04 |
| daedeloth | (I guess I should have created such a partition on windows install?) | 23:04 |
| VarmVaffel | TJ-, so do you know if I can just put whatever I want in there if I alter the iptables config? Is it just a counter for users to see? | 23:05 |
| TJ- | VarmVaffel: No, it's iptables internal packet counters so that some modules that use rate limiting can figure things out accuratelyt | 23:06 |
| daedeloth | so should I start from scratch and install windows with CSM turned off? | 23:07 |
| VarmVaffel | TJ-, right I see, thanks | 23:07 |
| TJ- | daedeloth: If it is Win8 then it'll be UEFI | 23:08 |
| daftykins | daedeloth: you're not going to be able to fix it after the fact, you'd have to reinstall to change to EFI installs but i'm not convinced that's the only course of action | 23:08 |
| daftykins | TJ-: not if he installed 8 with CSM on | 23:08 |
| daedeloth | alright, I'll go for a reinstall then | 23:08 |
| daftykins | heh | 23:09 |
| TJ- | daftykins: usually, with CSM, it only kicks in if there's no EFI alternative | 23:09 |
| daftykins | i think it's fair to say there's no 'usually' across any of this stuff XD | 23:09 |
| kazoo | I need help with nginx | 23:10 |
| daedeloth | is EFI really such a big step forwards? because in my opinion it's a pain. | 23:10 |
| kazoo | it reads my .php file as if its a .txt file | 23:10 |
| daedeloth | ah, yes, which points me to why I enabled CSM in the first place: the windows installer doesn't start without it. | 23:10 |
| TJ- | daedeloth: It's great... when it is done properly, but like everything, it takes time to get used to because it is a different way of handling boot | 23:10 |
| kazoo | Any ideas why it does that | 23:10 |
| daftykins | daedeloth: sounds like your windows media is iffy. | 23:11 |
| robotboy | hi | 23:11 |

| robotboy | got some kind logdba tool | 23:12 |
| JFranks | Okay.. If you installed LTS 12.04.4 on a Sun X4100 off disc, and every boot attempt results in a brief black screen followed by the "Mode not Supported" message the LCD farts out.. You've uncommented all the lines in /etc/default/grub .. doesn't change anything.. posted on #ubuntu .. nada.. now what? | 23:12 |
| daftykins | kazoo: i wonder if there's an nginx channel | 23:12 |
| daedeloth | daftykins, it's serious. is it possible? | 23:12 |
| kazoo | Daftykins there is but they take to long to respond | 23:12 |
| daftykins | daedeloth: where did you get the win8.1 image exactly? is it official? | 23:12 |
| daftykins | kazoo: sounds like you don't have php installed or enabled | 23:13 |
| kazoo | Its installed and enabled | 23:13 |

| gomi | So, is there a way to find out why Synaptic won't open from the Dash or launcher? | 23:13 |

| gomi | 'gksudo synaptic' runs synaptic, and it functions normally, but it shows a bunch of GtkNotebook warnings. Uninstalling and reinstalling Synaptic doesn't help. | 23:18 |
| daedeloth | the program I use to "burnt" the iso gives me 3 options: mbr for bios or uefi, mbr for uefi and gpt for uefi | 23:18 |
| daedeloth | the default is mbr for bios or uefi | 23:18 |
| daedeloth | I guess I'll pick GPT now and give that a try? | 23:19 |
| Beldar | gomi, What does a apt-get update and upgrade show? | 23:19 |
| === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon | ||
| gomi | I've been running apt-get update a lot lately. Just now, it doesn't show any errors, just lots of hits, gets, and igns. | 23:21 |
| Beldar | gomi, I see numerous bugs with 'GtkNotebook ubuntu synaptic' on google | 23:22 |
| urda | ... whelp figured it out. It was a hanged internal company python program | 23:25 |
| urda | thanks? :p | 23:25 |
| dgarstang | why would the <insert curse words> unity desktop suddenly not let me log in any more? ssh works FINE | 23:29 |
| gomi | Beldar: ok after looking into that and fixing an option in Synaptic, now it's giving me an error that it can't load canberra-gtk-module, but that module is included in libcanberra-gtk3-module, which I already have. | 23:30 |
| TJ- | dgarstang: stale "/home/$USER/.Xauthority" ? | 23:30 |
| dgarstang | TJ-: Moved it. same problem | 23:32 |
| TJ- | dgarstang: can Guest or other users connect? | 23:32 |
| jojoa1997 | is there a way i can permantly set the priority of a process to high? | 23:32 |
| dgarstang | TJ-: Guest can login via the UI. | 23:33 |
| dgarstang | TJ-: when I try and log in via UI, the screen changes for a moment and then goes back to tge unity login screen | 23:33 |
| TJ- | dgarstang: Check for a stale lightdm too, "/var/lib/lightdm/.Xauthority" | 23:34 |
| dgarstang | TJ-: removed him too... same thing | 23:35 |
| === anna is now known as Guest45413 | ||
| TJ- | dgarstang: did you stop/start the lightdm whilst removing that authority file? | 23:35 |
| dgarstang | tj: no.. and my /var/log/auth.log logs 'lightdm: pam_succeed_if(lightdm:auth): requirement "user ingroup nopasswdlogin" not met by user "doug"' on each failure. | 23:36 |
| gomi | jojoa1997: make sure it is always run from a script with nice, using the settings you want. | 23:36 |
| dgarstang | TJ-: restarted lightdm service. same thing | 23:36 |
| TJ- | dgarstang: check the "/home/$USER/".xsession-errors" | 23:37 |
| TJ- | dgarstang: Also, check the various logs in "/var/log/lightdm/" | 23:38 |
| dgarstang | oh... /usr/sbin/lightdm-session: 29: /home/doug/.profile: Syntax error: Bad function name | 23:38 |
| gomi | jojoa1997: If the process in question is already running all the time before your script can run, then use renice to change its priority instead. | 23:38 |
| dgarstang | hm that line has 'knife-hub() { knife $* -c ~/.chef/hub/knife.rb; }'. dunno whats' wrong with that | 23:38 |
| trism | dgarstang: you can't use a - in the name | 23:40 |
| dgarstang | TJ-: ok, that works. Why on earth would lightdm bitch that knife-hub() { knife $* -c ~/.chef/hub/knife.rb; } is not a valid function and totally fail the login? | 23:40 |
| dgarstang | trism: it works tho... from bash | 23:40 |
| trism | dgarstang: yes but lightdm sources .profile with dash | 23:40 |
| dgarstang | trism: oh ffs. well thanks | 23:40 |

| Gambit- | what's the correct way of telling a script in /etc/init.d to autostart? | 23:45 |
| Gambit- | or rather, start on boot? | 23:45 |
| brandon9 | I'm trying to setup some custom keyboard shortcuts on 12.04, and they only seem to work if I include a modifier key (shift, ctrl, alt, super). I don't want to use a modifier key with my shortcut. Is there any way to accomplish this? | 23:45 |

| eeballik | hello i have a cine raid dual HD usb enclosure with 1tb when i use ubuntu 12.04.4 alternate and try and manually setup partitions it detects drive as only 160gb | 23:50 |
| Jordan_U | eeballik: How big are the individual drives in the array? | 23:51 |
| awesomess3 | Gambit-, I believe you add a shortcut/symbolic-link from /etc/rc2.d/apache2 to /etc/init.d/apache2 (I used apache2 as an example) (I'm 19% sure this method works for all GNU/Linux distributions) | 23:51 |
| RBZ157 | sup | 23:52 |
| eeballik | 1TB | 23:52 |
| Gambit- | awesomess3, fyi, update-rc.d is the command you're looking for. Now I'm trying to determine how to get that to run from dpkg :) | 23:52 |
| eeballik | two 1TB hard drives | 23:52 |
| TJ- | Gambit-: "man update-rc.d" | 23:52 |
| Gambit- | :) | 23:52 |
| RBZ157 | Im a linux noob :/ | 23:52 |
| Gambit- | ah looks like I need a postinst shell script. | 23:52 |
| rww | awesomess3: "I'm 19% sure this method works for all GNU/Linux distributions" => it doesn't | 23:52 |
| awesomess3 | my probability checked-in! triumph! | 23:53 |
| rww | :) | 23:53 |
| Jordan_U | eeballik: Why are you using the alternate install image? Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" and "ls -l /dev/disk/by-path/" . | 23:53 |
| eeballik | because i want to use lvm encrypted drive | 23:54 |
| rww | the desktop CD can do LVM encryption | 23:54 |
| gomi | in 13.10, is there an easy way to get a 3 finger tap on the touchpad to register as a middle-click? | 23:54 |
| cornfeedhobo | is there an easy way to apply patches to packages? I realize it would need to be recompiled, but i have no clue if there is a way to make sure the process happens everytime a new version comes out | 23:55 |
| === jz is now known as Guest26805 | ||
| gomi | corndfeedhobo: run 'sudo apt-get update' regularly | 23:55 |
| Jordan_U | cornfeedhobo: What are you patching? | 23:56 |
| Guest26805 | how do I find out what package depends on a specific version of another package? | 23:56 |
| cornfeedhobo | Jordan_U: networkmanager-openvpn to add ipv6. ref: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/networkmanager-openvpn-ipv6/ | 23:57 |
| cornfeedhobo | i am not sure how to do it... but i want ipv6 | 23:57 |
| Bashing-om | Guest26805: Terminal command -> apt-cache depends <name> | 23:57 |
