| cornfeedhobo | i just installed it | 00:08 |
| cornfeedhobo | one sec | 00:08 |
| awesomess3 | I wonder how kubuntu is doing these days | 00:08 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: I have: network-manager-openvpn 0.9.6.0-0ubuntu4~tj1, which has some patches of my own (not IPv6!) | 00:08 |

| === Spec_ is now known as Spec | ||
| cornfeedhobo | yes | 00:13 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: I say that because the IPv6 tab isn't part of the openvpn extension,it's part of the core NM interface, so if you don't see that, it would suggest NM or the system has IPv6 disabled in some way | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | cornfeedhobo: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 00:15 |
| cornfeedhobo | Jordan_U: 13.10 | 00:15 |
| cornfeedhobo | TJ-: the tab exists for non-vpn connections, like... my wifi has it | 00:16 |
| cornfeedhobo | TJ-: this pertains to openvpn plugin only | 00:16 |
| cornfeedhobo | i even get a ipv6 address... the interface just doesnt konw about how to present that | 00:17 |
| cornfeedhobo | you know, command line "ip -6 a"... i get an address in the subnet i expect from the openvpn pool | 00:17 |
| cornfeedhobo | its just... the interface that hasnt been updated yet | 00:18 |

| sebastian | how do I install tor? | 00:26 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: probably best you just download the bundle if you ask a question like that here | 00:26 |
| minimec | sebastian: https://www.torproject.org/download/download | 00:27 |
| sebastian | thanks, getting it from synaptic | 00:27 |
| sebastian | assuming that should be safe | 00:27 |
| sebastian | is it | 00:27 |
| sebastian | is the respository version properly kept up to date | 00:27 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: unless things have changed from back in the day, the difference is really about the level of configuration and security that the auto-provide for you vs what you must create yourself | 00:28 |
| jjavaholic | how can I make sure that the video work is being handled by the nvidia GPU processer and not system CPU? | 00:28 |
| sebastian | synaptic says I downloaded it but when i type it in dash it doesn´t show up | 00:28 |
| cornfeedhobo | hmm things have changed since back in the day. I would uninstall it and follow the link someone pasted above | 00:29 |
| sebastian | I cannot open tor by typing tor into synaptic | 00:30 |
| jjavaholic | unity-lens-applications or whatever it is called is installed? | 00:30 |
| awesomess3 | sebastian, perhaps `apt-get update` is your ticket. | 00:31 |
| awesomess3 | sebastian, and then reopen synaptic | 00:32 |
| Jordan_U | !tor | sebastian | 00:32 |
| ubottu | sebastian: Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 00:32 |
| sebastian | just did sudo apt-get update | 00:32 |
| sebastian | and typed tor in dash | 00:33 |
| sebastian | still not showing up | 00:33 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: its a service | 00:33 |
| cornfeedhobo | i think | 00:33 |
| sebastian | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7128141/ | 00:33 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: it doesnt depend on and gtk or qt libraries... i bet its a service | 00:34 |
| sebastian | cornfeedhobo what do you recommend to open it then | 00:34 |
| cornfeedhobo | TJ-: i just went through the source available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/network-manager-openvpn and the panel doesnt apper to have mentions of ipv6 | 00:35 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: its not something you "open" | 00:35 |
| cornfeedhobo | !daemons | 00:35 |
| cornfeedhobo | hmm thought that would have something | 00:35 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: its a daemon that runs in the background and runs a proxy. you then configure various clients to use it | 00:36 |
| cornfeedhobo | OR, you could just get the bundle... which in the *recommended* way unless you know what you are doing | 00:37 |
| sebastian | cornfeedhobo, I want to GET the bundle | 00:38 |
| sebastian | i thought that´s what sudo apt get would do | 00:38 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: As I said earlier, the IPv6 tab isn't part of the VPN, it's part of network-manager-gnome ... see "/usr/share/nm-applet/ce-page-ip6.ui" | 00:38 |
| sebastian | as that´s what i get when i download it on windows | 00:38 |
| cornfeedhobo | oka | 00:38 |
| sebastian | so what i need to find out is how to get the bundle from ubuntu | 00:38 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: yes. okay. i am going to wriet out the steps to be clear.. just follow them blindly... please | 00:38 |
| cornfeedhobo | "sudo apt-get remove tor" | 00:39 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: open your browser and goto https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html.en | 00:40 |
| cornfeedhobo | click the link that matches your system | 00:40 |
| cornfeedhobo | (32-bit vs 64-bit) | 00:40 |
| cornfeedhobo | make sure to save and not just open | 00:41 |

| sebastian | i downloaded it | 00:42 |
| Wtalk2 | Best ubuntu version to use for a webserver? | 00:43 |
| sebastian | cornfeedhobo, what do I do with it? it´s a set of folders, when i click on browser it doesnt go anywhere | 00:44 |
| TJ- | Wtalk2: Which web server? what do you want it to do? do you want full support for PFC? SNI? etc etc | 00:44 |
| minimec | Wtalk2: Any LTS version, as once you have a working setup, you want it to run without upgrading your system after 9 month... | 00:44 |
| sebastian | do I extract it? | 00:44 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: download the file. dont open it | 00:44 |
| sebastian | ok done, next | 00:44 |
| Wtalk2 | TJ-: LAMP, Cloudserver | 00:44 |
| cornfeedhobo | the use "tar xf ~/Downloads/tor-browser" to extract it | 00:44 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: the use "tar xf ~/Downloads/tor-browser*" to extract it ** | 00:45 |
| TJ- | Wtalk2: That doesn't help; what features are required? If you want PFC then you need Apache 2.4, so that'll dictate the minimum Ubuntu version | 00:45 |
| sebastian | cannot open no such file or directory | 00:45 |
| cornfeedhobo | you can also right click the file and exract everything | 00:46 |
| cornfeedhobo | sebastian: ^ | 00:46 |
| cornfeedhobo | then just double click "start-tor-browser" inside the extracted folder | 00:46 |
| sebastian | cannot open no such file or directory | 00:46 |
| mikodo | I right clicked a .pdf from a website to open with "Printing", and printed it and closed the file and shut off my printer. I tried to open some .pdf's I have in a launcher on the Xfce panel in Xubuntu, and they would only open to print , with no option to right click and change to open with "Document Viewer". I put a new .pdf on the desktop and when I clicked on it, it too wanted to open it with "Printing", though I could right click it | 00:47 |
| mikodo | , and change it and open it with "Document Viewer. After doing that, the .pdf's in the panel launcher open with "Document Viewer" again. Weird? | 00:47 |

| marcusmoore | minimec It's windows home server if that makes a difference. I'll have to pop back into my windows machine to check that out. | 01:33 |
| cornfeedhobo | TJ-: the file "ce-page-ip6.ui" does not exist on my system | 01:34 |
| daftykins | glenzo: you can't install an OS from within Windows | 01:34 |
| minimec | marcusmoore: It's probably case sensitive, so 'Winmachine' is not equal to 'winmachine' | 01:34 |
| cornfeedhobo | TJ-: this is clearly kubuntu specific.. thanks for all the help | 01:34 |
| glenzo | daftykins, I've done it before | 01:34 |
| glenzo | Multiple times | 01:34 |
| glenzo | With multiple OS's | 01:34 |
| daftykins | glenzo: using WUBI huh - that thing is a seriously bad idea | 01:35 |
| Theory2 | Can I use rdesktop from .... a windows computer connecting to my ubuntu computer? | 01:35 |
| daftykins | i would never knowingly allow anyone to install ubuntu that way | 01:35 |
| glenzo | Why not? | 01:35 |
| glenzo | I see nothin' wrong with it. | 01:35 |
| daftykins | lol. | 01:35 |
| daftykins | glenzo: because of being in here when someone with a WUBI install comes in to say it's broken | 01:36 |
| marcusmoore | minimec, still not pinging. This is frustrating. Thanks for the help though. Time to take the girlfriend to dinner. I appreciate it. | 01:36 |
| glenzo | The reason I use wubi is because I'm too lazy to go out and buy a DVD | 01:36 |
| glenzo | that I can burn the OS to | 01:36 |
| daftykins | glenzo: don't own a flash drive huh? | 01:36 |
| glenzo | I do | 01:36 |
| glenzo | But they all have a bunch of other OS's | 01:36 |
| Theory2 | Can I use rdesktop from .... a windows computer connecting to my ubuntu computer? | 01:36 |
| glenzo | Actually... | 01:36 |
| daftykins | glenzo: ... | 01:37 |
| glenzo | I could use YUMI | 01:37 |
| glenzo | Hmmm, why didn't I think of that before? | 01:37 |
| daftykins | well, i hope you overcome your laziness | 01:37 |
| daftykins | i'm off o/ | 01:37 |
| minimec | marcusmoore: Ok. 'Bon appétit' as we would say here... | 01:37 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: Yes, you need "network-manager-gnome" | 01:37 |
| glenzo | Bai bai | 01:37 |
| marcusmoore | minimec again. Much appreciated. I'll have to hack away at this later. | 01:37 |

| sergio_msl | hi again.. i did another reboot.. and the problem persists.. | 01:39 |
| sergio_msl | System Settings, About this Computer, Change Desktop Background.. | 01:39 |
| sergio_msl | and others menus dont work, dont open.. | 01:39 |
| Theory2 | What is the simplest way to control my ubuntu desktop computer from my windows xp laptop...I dislike VNC viewer, and putty, having to use both together each time. | 01:39 |
| === Guest35054 is now known as karstensrage | ||
| sergio_msl | i reset compiz/unity and reboot.. but didnt work.. i use 13.10 x64 | 01:40 |
| leoleo11 | how can i decrease the brightness in a tty? | 01:40 |
| cornfeedhobo | TJ-: so it turn out that it is installed already | 01:40 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: Thought it would be :) | 01:41 |
| cornfeedhobo | that is the only one. the package "network-manager-openvpn" is the core package. not the gui | 01:41 |
| cornfeedhobo | but... i mean you saw the screen shot... what gives | 01:41 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: yes, network-manager-openvpn-gnome is the GUI | 01:41 |
| daftykins | Theory2: how do you feel another remote application will succeed where those failed you? | 01:41 |
| Theory2 | I have Vinagre installed on my Ubuntu machine. Now I just need to know how to connect to it using Windows Xp. | 01:41 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: Like I said, it makes me think network manager thinks IPv6 is disabled so doesn't provide the UI | 01:42 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, Well, when using it this way I have to login with Putty each time before hand, and then use VNC viewer to login using localhost:5902...using tunnels through ssh | 01:42 |
| cornfeedhobo | Theory2: i have ipv6 working (i use cjdns and can route ipv6) and i see an ipv6 tab on the wifi and ethernet networks. but not openvpn | 01:42 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, I just wish there was a simpler way. | 01:42 |
| cornfeedhobo | TJ-: i have ipv6 working (i use cjdns and can route ipv6) and i see an ipv6 tab on the wifi and ethernet networks. but not openvpn | 01:42 |
| cornfeedhobo | Theory2: sorry | 01:42 |
| TJ- | cornfeedhobo: Best to read through the source-code I guess! | 01:43 |
| Theory2 | np | 01:43 |
| jo_ | This might be a strange question, but is it possible (or necessary) to cross compile an application from Ubuntu to RHEL6? | 01:43 |
| jo_ | I have a nightmarish application which I need to run on my school's supercomputer, and I can't get it to build there. | 01:43 |
| daftykins | Theory2: this is over your network or over the internet? | 01:43 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, its over my own home wifi network | 01:43 |
| daftykins | Theory2: and you don't trust it? | 01:44 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, Uh,I trust it. I just was looking for a simpler way. | 01:44 |
| daftykins | Theory2: right but you're SSH tunneling your connection to protect the plaintext auth, presumably? | 01:44 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, Because I never know the damn i.p of my system, I have to get up and look for it each time using ifconfig | 01:44 |
| daftykins | so in which case you don't trust the LAN? | 01:44 |
| misingnoglic | Hi, I can connect to unprotected wifis fine but the wifi at my college won't take my username/password (keeps bringing up the authentication required popup), any idea how to fix this? | 01:44 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, No, I trust it. Its just the same its setup..is there an easier way? | 01:45 |
| daftykins | Theory2: mistake #1 is to run services on a machine with a dynamic IP, you could set that static and always know the IP to remote to. #2, teamviewer could be installed on either end as an alternative | 01:46 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, Connecting to from a windows computer to a windows computer is pretty simple. I just use teamviewer. | 01:46 |
| sergio_msl | Hi, i have a trouble, some menus dont work in my installation 13.10 x64, for example System Settings dont open, About this Computer, and many other dont work.. | 01:46 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, Okay. so teamviewer will work between different operating systems? | 01:46 |
| daftykins | correct | 01:46 |
| Theory2 | I was unaware of that. | 01:46 |
| Theory2 | I'll check that out. | 01:47 |
| minimec | leoleo11: first try 'cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness'. See if you get some values. For a Intel HD4000 it might be 'cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness' If you get some values, do 'sudo echo <new_value> > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness' | 01:47 |
| daftykins | Theory2: i must sleep now, good luck | 01:47 |
| Theory2 | daftykins, I guess sudo apt-get install teamviewer doesn't work | 01:47 |
| daftykins | Theory2: it's third party, download the .deb from their website | 01:47 |
| Theory2 | ok | 01:48 |

| minimec | leoleo11: 'sudo echo 77 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness' or similar... | 01:52 |
| minimec | leoleo11: Ok. 'sudo' is not working. You first have to 'sudo -i', then 'echo 77 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness', then 'exit' | 01:55 |
| kostkon | wah993, delete the .pyc files in your project's folder | 01:55 |

| Guest44019 | dont work many menus and settings | 02:07 |
| minimec | leoleo11: somsip: Yeah. So the command would be: 'echo 77 | sudo tee -a /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness' | 02:07 |
| leoleo11 | minimec: it worked with echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness | 02:08 |
| Guest44019 | System Settings, dont open, About this Computer dont open, Change desktop background.. and many options dont work on the ubuntu interface and on some apps | 02:08 |

| minimec | leoleo11: You can add the 'echo line' to /etc/rc.local just before the 'exit 0' | 02:09 |
| kostkon | JungleJim, paste the output on paste.ubuntu.com | 02:09 |
| thoonai | I need soem help with a script: It should be run by a usera but owned by user b. user a should not be able to change it. Is there a simple and neat way to realize that? | 02:10 |
| Guest44019 | ok im gonna remove ubuntu and install again! | 02:10 |
| minimec | leoleo11: so... 'echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness' | 02:10 |
| TJ- | thoonai: Yes, make the script executable by group, and put user a in that group, or have it executable by others and then everyone can execute it | 02:11 |
| leoleo11 | minimec: this line has already been here echo 300 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness | 02:12 |
| leoleo11 | should i delete it first? | 02:12 |
| thoonai | TJ so the user just can execute it but not move it or change it? | 02:12 |
| JungleJim | kostkon: output pasted | 02:12 |
| minimec | leoleo11: No. Just modify it, I guess... | 02:12 |
| seednode | Trying to max brightness on boot? | 02:13 |

| kostkon | JungleJim, now paste the url here | 02:13 |
| JungleJim | kostkon: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7128472/ | 02:13 |
| leoleo11 | seednode: No i want to start at 50 but there was a line in the init file that states 300 so i dont know if i should modify it or have two different commands | 02:13 |

| seednode | leoleo11, if they're both echo # > /sys/class/etc... | 02:14 |
| seednode | Then you can comment out the 300 | 02:14 |
| thoonai | TJ-: then I have one more question: the machine is connected to a server providing user login on all machines, does the creation of a 'local' group interferes with the domain group system? | 02:14 |
| kostkon | JungleJim, why with --install-recommends ? | 02:15 |
| leoleo11 | seednode: i just modified it, thats ok right? | 02:15 |
| seednode | Yeah; I just recommended commenting out so you know what to change back to if something goes wrong | 02:15 |
| JungleJim | kostkon: I was using instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 02:16 |
| seednode | Though I can't think of why it would, if you've already tested "echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness" and it worked | 02:16 |
| leoleo11 | seednode: Youre right. Ill reboot now to try | 02:16 |
| TJ- | thoonai: as long as the group name/number don't conflict, no, but it might be best to have a domain group assigned for the purpose | 02:16 |
| kostkon | JungleJim, yeah ok | 02:16 |
| JungleJim | kostkon: doing 'sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep hold' does not show any held packages | 02:18 |

| minimec | Datz: I would NOT comment it out, but set the value to '0'. Then do a 'sudo update-initramfs' -u ALL | 03:28 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, if all else fails, reinstall grub should get you back to grub's default | 03:28 |
| Datz | minimec: I'll try that first, thanks | 03:29 |
| minimec | Datz: 'sudo update-initramfs -u all' | 03:29 |
| Datz | ok, me me comment it back in, if that's the term | 03:29 |
| Datz | uncomment it | 03:29 |
| minimec | Datz: 'sudo update-initramfs -u ALL' I have to go to bed I think. getting tired... | 03:29 |
| Datz | thanks minimec | 03:29 |
| Datz | minimec: the value was already set to zero | 03:30 |
| Datz | I think I actually tried setting it to one, before | 03:30 |
| minimec | Datz: Also 'sudo update-grub' cannot be a bad thing. | 03:30 |
| minimec | Datz: Your windows partition should reappear then... | 03:31 |
| Datz | it's asking me about usage for that command you gave | 03:31 |

| minimec | Datz: 'sudo update-initramfs -u -k all' | 03:33 |
| Datz | ok thanks | 03:34 |
| Datz | I should also note I've reordered the numbers of the files in /etc/grub/ (I think) to get windows 1st in grub boot order list | 03:36 |
| Datz | which I've heard I shouldn't do | 03:36 |
| Datz | minimec: I still get that warning after running that command | 03:37 |
| Datz | also, windows is still gone | 03:37 |
| Datz | in /etc/grub.d | 03:37 |
| minimec | Datz: I would not do that. You should have an option in the boot config, to choose the 'default boot number' | 03:37 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, and yet you did it anyway ? | 03:38 |
| * Datz feels a finger shaking coming up | 03:38 | |

| Datz | 01_os-prober | 03:38 |
| * Datz doesn't know what's what anymore | 03:39 | |
| Datz | so, what was that about uninstalling, and re installing grub, somthing I should do? | 03:39 |
| Datz | I should also note, that I'm booted to windows, and running ubuntu in a VM | 03:40 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, I suggested reinstalling - NOT uninstalling. reinstalling should reset you back to defaults | 03:40 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, virtualbox? | 03:40 |
| Datz | yes | 03:40 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, so you are NOT dual booting then | 03:40 |
| Datz | No, I am | 03:40 |
| Datz | I'm using a RAW DISK | 03:41 |
| Datz | or whatever | 03:41 |
| Datz | it's a separate drive | 03:41 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, windows/wubi install? | 03:41 |
| Datz | cfhowlett: nope | 03:41 |
| raub | Datz: a raw disk would not make it dual boot if you are inside vbox | 03:41 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, what you've described is not dual booting ... | 03:42 |
| demophobia | Why isn't Google Maps in the Ubuntu Software Center? | 03:42 |
| Datz | I have two installs, Windows, and Linux. They are on separate drives. I can boot to either at startup through grub, or I can boot to windows and boot ubuntu through vbox | 03:42 |
| Datz | ubuntu is not a file on windows | 03:43 |
| raub | Datz: so you are saying is you have vbox runnign windows. | 03:43 |
| Datz | yes | 03:43 |
| raub | And a vm in vbox that dual boots | 03:43 |
| minimec | Datz: Instead of 'GRUB_DEFAULT=0', you choose the number of the grub entry, you want to boot first. That's all. Afterwards you do 'sudo update-initramfs -u -k all' again | 03:44 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, which is NOT dual boot - so we need not mention it | 03:44 |
| kostkon | demophobia, you can download it from google | 03:44 |
| Datz | well, it just catches the regular grub boot loader | 03:44 |
| Datz | minimec: ok thats nice | 03:44 |
| Datz | I guess I don't the the true definition of dual boot then | 03:44 |
| kostkon | demophobia, google maps or google earth? | 03:45 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, booting windows on hdd and linux on the other hdd is dual booting | 03:45 |
| Datz | ok.. that's what I thought | 03:45 |
| minimec | Datz: ... and 'sudo update-grub' too ;) | 03:45 |
| * Datz runs it again | 03:46 | |
| cfhowlett | so fixing the virtualbox ubuntu will have NO effect on dual HDD booting | 03:46 |
| Datz | it will, it should | 03:46 |
| Datz | I get the same grub boot menu I do at start up | 03:46 |

| Datz | oh probably not | 03:52 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, changes to the VM system will ONLY be valid in the VM system thus my suggestion that you exit virtualbox and windows and work on the actual dual HDD system | 03:52 |
| Datz | cfhowlett: I've said it's a RAW drive setup, it boots my physical drive | 03:52 |
| cfhowlett | Datz, ok. over my head then. stay in channel and re-state - no doubt someone here will be able to guide you properly | 03:53 |

| Jordan_U | [styx]: Only the machine hosting a samba share needs to support the filesystem stiring the data in question. | 04:45 |
| qin | kostkon: kinda hoped there will be neat mechanism to bring eol to lts. | 04:45 |
| [styx] | Well it is my ubuntu server. | 04:46 |
| [styx] | I have exfat-fuse installed and its mounted fine. Just can't seem to change ownership | 04:46 |
| Jordan_U | benkillin: Feel free to join #ubuntu-ops if you wish to discuss your quiet. | 04:46 |
| Jordan_U | [styx]: So you have files on an exfat partition which you want to share via samba, correct? | 04:48 |
| [styx] | They share and read fine. I just can't seem to be able to write to the hard rive from my connecting machine | 04:48 |
| thoonai | I have the problem, that I want to restrict a user to execute virtualbox only through one script, which is not editable, but Im stuck | 04:49 |
| kostkon | qin, unfortunately there isn't. and since you are fortunate to be on an non lts release that has reached eol only just recently you will only need to dist upgrade twice, if you attempt it that is | 04:49 |
| qin | kostkon: fresh install seems good enough reason for thorought back up, on other hand "only need (...) twice" is very tempting. | 04:52 |
| kostkon | qin, if you are patient enough.. | 04:53 |
| evilbug | is there a way to upgrade to a specific version from command line? | 04:57 |
| Beldar | qin, You can make a install dpkg list, save any 3rd party repos and keys and reload the fresh install. | 04:57 |
| Beldar | save some configs in, and files from home as well | 04:57 |
| killer | Hey , I need to know my wireless card name in ubuntu, any way to do this using commmad | 04:58 |
| Beldar | qin, You can also separate home to it's own partition now and use it in the install. | 04:59 |
| thoonai | killer: lspci or lsusb will help you | 04:59 |

| Kungr | how do i automount a drive to a specific user? i have the UUID set. i'm just not sure about the mount point or uid & gid settings | 06:18 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: what filesystem? | 06:19 |
| Kungr | ext4 | 06:20 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: you use chown/chmod for permissions, not uid/gid which are invalid mount-options for unix-fs | 06:20 |
| evilbug | Jordan_U: i installed nm-applet | 06:20 |
| llutz_ | !permissions | Kungr | 06:21 |
| ubottu | Kungr: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 06:21 |
| Kungr | llutz: k | 06:24 |
| Kungr | but how does this work in fstab | 06:26 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: its not done in fstab, | 06:27 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: "UUID=abcde.efghi /mount/point ext4 defaults 0 2" is an example fstab entry. you use chown/chmod once, when the filesystem is mounted to set permissions as you need | 06:28 |
| Kungr | My goal is to have a two drives automount to two users | 06:28 |
| Kungr | i currently have my drives mounted | 06:29 |
| Kungr | automounting | 06:29 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: welcome to the limited possibilities of unix permissions. i'd guess you should read about ACLs to setup permissions for that. | 06:31 |
| Kungr | ACLs? | 06:31 |
| llutz_ | !acl | 06:31 |
| llutz_ | no factoid for it, | 06:31 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: yes, posix acl (man getfacl/setfacl) | 06:32 |
| Kungr | I'm familiar with it but i didn't know that you couldn't set permissions in Fstab | 06:34 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: you might put both users into a common group and chgrp the filesystem to that group. you will still have problems with write-access because of the default umask. so either you change the umask for those users, or, easier(!?), you use acl | 06:34 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: setting permissions n fstab only works for non unix-fs, because they don't allow the usage of normal tools like chown/chmod. they canot handle unix-permissions | 06:34 |
| Kungr | Can't i just mount them in /mnt or /home/user | 06:37 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: yes but that won't affect permissions | 06:38 |
| Kungr | this kinda sucks | 06:39 |
| Kungr | so now what, format too an NTFS filesystem and use the uid and gid sets | 06:43 |
| explorer13 | does anyone know about LEX and YACC programming | 06:43 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: use chown/chmod, where is the problem? | 06:43 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: put both users into a common group, chgrp the filsystem to that group and define an ACL which allows g+rwx and inherits that on all subdirs | 06:44 |
| Kungr | ok sorry a little slow | 06:44 |
| Kungr | so if I set the permissions that way they will apply everytime i reboot? | 06:45 |
| llutz_ | Kungr: permissions are stored in the filesystem. so ,yes | 06:45 |
| Kungr | k sweet | 06:46 |

| netsky | using minimal bandwidth is the idea | 07:23 |
| ikonia | you'll still need to download | 07:23 |

| Rixute | Having trouble with Ubuntu Software Center not finishing downloads | 08:23 |
| Bman_ | Would someone be able to help me with installing ubuntu touch on nexus 7 (2013)? | 08:23 |
| Rixute | Typically 25% completion and what I would describe as a stall until system reboot | 08:23 |
| cfhowlett | !touch|Bman_, | 08:24 |
| ubottu | Bman_,: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch | 08:24 |
| Bman_ | Thanks | 08:24 |
| Rixute | I then attempted to download via terminal and got a strange error | 08:24 |
| Rixute | Can someone please help? | 08:25 |
| cfhowlett | !details|Rixute, | 08:26 |
| ubottu | Rixute,: 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) | 08:26 |
| onborad | ? | 08:27 |
| Rixute | @ubottu: I pasted the error in pastebin | 08:33 |
| Rixute | Essentially ubuntu software center is taking too long | 08:33 |
| Rixute | And terminal is producing the aforementioned error | 08:34 |
| Ben64 | Rixute: you do need to give us the pastebin in order for us to be able to see it | 08:34 |
| cfhowlett | Rixute, you have to poste the pastebin url so people can actually see the output | 08:34 |

| cfhowlett | Rixhute, is the usb-modeswitch-data package the one that failed on your machine? | 09:06 |

| Rixhute | @cfhowlett: Says to modify main.cf, 'if needed'? | 09:18 |
| Rixhute | @cfhowlett: specifically modify what in main.cf? | 09:18 |
| cfhowlett | Rixhute, only if you know what you're doing. I've run ubuntu since 2005 and NEVER had to edit postfix. no idea what it is/does | 09:18 |
| Rixhute | @cfhowlett: I'm not familiar with post configuration utility | 09:19 |
| cfhowlett | Rixhute, so then you don't actively use it? ignore the error message and drive on. | 09:19 |

| Alarm | when do those error occur ? | 09:37 |
| minimec | Dramors: you're welcome. I use it in combination with enlightenment. Unfortunately for some reason, there is no package for 14.04. You will have to use the 13.10 package in 14.04 too. | 09:37 |
| cfhowlett | Alarm, when dpkg fails for some reason. | 09:38 |

| m4l0 | has anyone here installed ubuntu on a M$ Surface Pro2 and can give me some pointers before I get started. I am mostly worried about the wlan, since the article i find on google says that is a problem to get it working | 09:38 |
| Alarm | cfhowlett: well.... i have a weird problem. sure its not 100% ubuntu related. i use vagrant, a tool to automaticaly configure a virtual box. inside the configuration i have an apt-get install command to install some packages. if i run it through this tool (vagrant) , the apt-get update works, and also the installation starts but then it fails with such errors | 09:39 |
| irenicus09 | hi guys can anyone tell me if ubuntu has support for nvidia 820m out of the box? | 09:39 |
| Alarm | if i manualy run the command inside the box (the same command) , it installs the packages with success | 09:40 |
| irenicus09 | ubuntu 13.10 | 09:40 |
| cfhowlett | Alarm, never used vagrant so - can't advise. sorry. | 09:40 |
| cfhowlett | Alarm, so you have the fix then ... :) | 09:40 |
| cfhowlett | !nvidia | 09:40 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 09:40 |
| Alarm | cfhowlett: no that is not the fix :) i must do that automaticaly :) | 09:41 |
| cfhowlett | Alarm, see if vagrant has a support channel/forum | 09:42 |
| Alarm | it does :) but i wanted to see if there is a specific reason why those errors appear so that i can troubleshoot :) | 09:42 |
| Alarm | cfhowlett: thank you :) | 09:43 |
| Dramors | from what I understand, it installs but leaves the deps out, is that correct? | 09:43 |
| Dramors | if so, can't you add apt-get install -f after whatever it is you install? that might do it | 09:43 |

| Ben64 | alex_r08: libreoffice is in the repositories, it is suggested you do that instead of doing whatever you're currently attempting | 10:02 |
| cfhowlett | alex_r08, use software center to install. problem solved | 10:02 |
| alex_r08 | oh ok so I have to find software center | 10:03 |
| alex_r08 | thanks ! | 10:03 |
| Ben64 | find? it should be very prominent | 10:04 |

| Ben64 | xavious: what does "dmesg" say? use a pastebin | 10:07 |
| cfhowlett | Ben64, can with narrow that? grep "discdrive" ?? | 10:08 |
| Ben64 | not really | 10:08 |

| Ben64 | xavious: ok, whats the disc its not seeing | 10:13 |
| ciarly | #ciarly èuscito! | 10:14 |
| xavious | Ben64: Any disc. Audio CD to DVD. At first I figured I was lacking 'dvdread4 but recalled I had restricted areas installed, so that was there. Upon a double check that was confirmed. Tried auido CD...the drive failed to recognize it also. It will spin up and down without result, or endlessly until I manually eject (using switch). | 10:15 |
| Ben64 | xavious: put in a cd, not audio, and run this "sudo dd if=/dev/sr0 | file -" | 10:17 |
| xavious | Ben64: No medium found | 10:19 |
| Ben64 | sounds like a hardware problem then | 10:19 |

| xavious | Ben64: Before I try again, to prevent another noob fail, is " file - " a variable for another target? | 10:25 |
| Ben64 | xavious: just type it, one line, no quotes, exactly like this -- "sudo dd if=/dev/sr0 | file -" | 10:26 |
| Ben64 | but i'm fairly sure you're going to get the no medium error again, because the drive can't find a cd | 10:26 |
| xavious | Ben64: Slightly different result. No cammand found followed by "no read permission" | 10:28 |

| Tom1 | raub: i want to download software for ubuntu , for storing them permanently. | 10:45 |
| raub | And then, say, access it? | 10:45 |
| raub | But, this software will be updated every so often | 10:45 |
| raub | even for a given release | 10:45 |
| clue_h | Tom1, apt-get download | 10:45 |
| raub | clue_h: I was more going to suggest creating a repo | 10:46 |
| Tom1 | yes raub | 10:46 |
| clue_h | oh my bad | 10:46 |
| raub | clue_h: you answer might work better; I dunno what he wants to do ;) | 10:47 |
| Tom1 | raub: how about using synaptic paackgae manager, and then click the option "download only" | 10:47 |
| raub | Tom1: that is what clue_h suggested | 10:47 |
| raub | Just a diff way to do that | 10:48 |
| Tom1 | ok | 10:48 |
| raub | I have never done it that way, so clue_h might, well, clue you in ;) | 10:48 |
| clue_h | :) | 10:49 |
| Tom1 | raub: its a simple thing, just download the software and not install, so that u get the software and its dependencies. | 10:49 |
| clue_h | Just try it with some package of no consequence and see where it is downloaded to it will usually say in the terminal with 'apt-get download' | 10:50 |
| Tom1 | clue_h: how;s synaptic package manager? | 10:50 |
| Tom1 | it even downloads the needed dependencies too. | 10:51 |
| clue_h | Tom1, not sure i use apt for my things. oh nice. | 10:51 |
| Tom1 | clue_h: do u downoad and keep the software or just install it directly via software manager? | 10:52 |
| clue_h | however if you do it the apt way you can then look in /var/cache/apt/archives | 10:52 |
| clue_h | i keep it for myself mwahaha | 10:52 |
| clue_h | not really i install what i need | 10:52 |
| Tom1 | clue_h: exactly , the downloaded software from synaptic manager are also stored in that directory. | 10:52 |
| clue_h | Tom1, cool. have you tried either method | 10:53 |
| andromeduck | so i'm not sure what just happened | 10:53 |
| Tom1 | clue_h: i have tried the synaptic method and it works for smaller softwares with less dependencies | 10:53 |
| andromeduck | but my intel sound thing stopped working and alsamixer isn't reporting it | 10:53 |
| andromeduck | like the device | 10:53 |
| andromeduck | it was working like an hour ago... | 10:54 |
| Tom1 | clue_h: though will try with larger softwares like gimp and openjdk | 10:54 |
| clue_h | Tom1, there's also this http://www.tuxradar.com/answers/517, | 10:57 |
| Tom1 | clue_h: thanks for the link, i appreciate | 10:59 |

| cfhowlett | emrah, is there something specific you're trying to do now? | 11:24 |
| DJones | emrah: It should take less than a minute or so to install wine using the official software repositories, "sudo apt-get install wine" | 11:24 |
| emrah | it takes too long to install , why ? | 11:24 |
| cfhowlett | emrah, how should we know? your system, your ISP, your connection? | 11:25 |
| emrah | it is not a problem i just wonder why | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | emrah: depends on system spec and dive type, also internet connection speed for downloading debs | 11:26 |
| emrah | its size not so big connection rate is 800b/s | 11:27 |
| cfhowlett | emrah, is there something specific you're trying to do now? | 11:27 |

| cfhowlett | emrah, you're trying to use win8 apps in ubuntu? no.l | 11:31 |
| cfhowlett | no | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | emrah: the apps will need installing in Wine | 11:31 |
| emrah | okey thank | 11:32 |
| cfhowlett | emrah, and they may or may not work ... | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | emrah: if that worked, piracy would be rife | 11:32 |
| emrah | im very grateful to u | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | emrah: there are registry files created when you install apps as well as files in the Windows folder and so on | 11:32 |

| andromeduck | it's weird... when I installed it the speaker/headphones came muted - so I fix that and it pops up as analogue stuff in the profile tab... so weird it should be gone without any notice... | 11:49 |
| andromeduck | or reboot | 11:49 |
| andromeduck | or installs | 11:49 |

| fidel_ | to be honest - i even disabled the entire nv part on the linux install to save some energy - knowing i would never need that performance mode anyways - and saving energy on the mobile device would be a nice sideeffect | 12:25 |

| po_ | DJones, I haven't heard of prime...how do I get that installed? | 12:31 |
| po_ | personally it's my first time trying to troubleshoot an nvidia driver | 12:31 |
| DJones | po_: As far as I know, its only in 14.04 development release at the moment | 12:31 |

| sydney | Will lubuntu be suported for 3 or 5 years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lubuntu#cite_note-omgubuntu2-83 Acording to this it is 5 years? | 12:38 |
| ikonia | ok the first thing to do is always look at the official site | 12:38 |
| ikonia | rather than untrusted sources | 12:39 |
| k1l | sydney: from now on LTS do have 5 years support | 12:39 |
| ikonia | the desktop is 3 years though | 12:39 |
| ikonia | which makes it a complicated mess | 12:39 |
| k1l | ikonia: no. 5 sears for both since 12.04 | 12:39 |
| sydney | Thats the point. :) | 12:39 |
| ikonia | what ? is that just lubuntu or ubuntu too ? | 12:39 |

| k1l | ikonia: no ubuntu. dont know the other variations | 12:40 |
| sydney | speco6: Whats the problem? | 12:41 |
| IdleOne | ikonia: the derivatives could be different but if they chose to make an LTS release it makes sense for those such as L X K Ubuntu to be 5 years also | 12:41 |
| ikonia | there was discussion on lubuntu 3 years two days | 12:41 |
| ikonia | 2 days ago | 12:41 |
| speco6 | printer recognized and installed. files are beeing sent to printer, and he shows the sent files as finished, but it doesnt print nothing... | 12:41 |
| k1l | the derivates decide themselves how long they can manage the support with community help | 12:42 |
| IdleOne | ikonia: hmm, maybe I need to check into it again. afaik it is 5 years for all LTS, but yeah the derivatives can change that if they want. Ubuntu is 5 years for sure | 12:42 |
| NobodyInPerson | Sorry, is this the right place to ask questions about packaging .deb files? | 12:43 |
| IdleOne | NobodyInPerson: #ubuntu-packaging would be better | 12:43 |
| NobodyInPerson | Okay thanks! | 12:43 |
| IdleOne | sure thing | 12:43 |
| sydney | speco6: are you sure it is installed correctly? also are you selecting the correct printer when you print? | 12:44 |
| ikonia | IdleOne: as I understood it was anything in the "base" repos that was 5 years | 12:44 |
| speco6 | only one printer is in our network, and its the one i use and i have installed :) | 12:45 |
| ikonia | IdleOne: this suggests you're right for the actual base product https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS but I'm not sure how that sits with the derivatives packages | 12:45 |
| IdleOne | ikonia: right, the derivatives have the option of shortening the support period if the choose to as I understand it. | 12:45 |
| ikonia | IdleOne: so that may explain the 3 / 5 year confusion I saw a day or two ago | 12:46 |
| IdleOne | yup | 12:46 |
| sydney | How did you install it? did you use the program called printers. | 12:46 |

| tdannecy | batmuffino: You should skip the first part and go down to the sextion that edits "/etc/default/keyboard" and paste in the applicable layout that you want. | 13:10 |
| rabbitnightmare | krizoek, if you created it with DD you have to mount each partition seperately | 13:10 |

| krizoek | i tried so with the offset yes | 13:11 |
| rabbitnightmare | you still have to specify the partition number | 13:11 |
| krizoek | how so? | 13:11 |
| rabbitnightmare | you need to find the start sectors | 13:11 |
| krizoek | 0b. i tried that with offset, but it didnt work | 13:11 |

| Kekai | I installed Lubuntu a while back, but wasnt happy, so I installed Xubuntu Via the terminal. | 16:02 |

| tgm4883 | ActionParsnip, couldn't we just check if his DNS is responding with the right IP address rather than just switch to Google's? | 16:03 |
| ActionParsnip | tgm4883: as you wish, just wanted to get things goin | 16:03 |
| OerHeks | rahulkrai_, contact your vendor | 16:03 |
| kiatz | Do a nslookup 'Website Name' | 16:04 |
| bgardner | matthias__: That change won't bestow new rights, it just skips the password prompt for a user that already has the ability to call sudo. | 16:04 |
| tgm4883 | ActionParsnip, maybe I'm old fashioned, but I think checking that the website is up and that he's resolving the right IP address are better starts than changing his DNS and making him install a new browser | 16:04 |
| rahulkrai_ | Hey , I made it clear that it is not my vendor fault , the same website , yes the same website on the same ISP runs fine on windows machine , It worked fine before update , I have come to ubuntu chat help for a reason , that it is the update bug | 16:05 |

| ActionParsnip | tgm4883: the resolv.conf file is generated, so undoing the change is easy | 16:05 |

| rahulkrai_ | I can browse the web , just not some parts of it after I updated | 16:06 |
| rahulkrai_ | The program 'nslookup' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 16:06 |
| matthias__ | bgardner: is there a way to do this only for the specific script, because many users are using this workstation | 16:06 |
| tgm4883 | ActionParsnip, it's just quora.com and udacity.com | 16:07 |
| ActionParsnip | tgm4883: the dns used now may have old IPs, so a switch to a different one may help diagnose this | 16:07 |
| tgm4883 | rahulkrai_, can you pastebin /var/log/apt/history.log | 16:07 |
| rahulkrai_ | It is not just quora.com ,I can open quora.com , I cannot read the full answers on it , same thing with udacity.com , I can open it , but after update the chat widget is gone | 16:07 |
| bgardner | matthias__: Does the script start if you call it without 'python'? e.g. Just '/opt/lampp/share/xampp-control-panel/xampp-control-panel.py' | 16:08 |
| tgm4883 | rahulkrai_, that is very very different than what you told us in the beginning | 16:08 |

| tgm4883 | rahulkrai_, that isn't the full log | 16:10 |

| tgm4883 | !pastebinit | rahulkrai_ | 16:10 |
| ubottu | rahulkrai_: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 16:10 |

| FapFlop | On the site, it says I need wine:i386, but THAT won't install. | 16:18 |

| cfhowlett | !saucy | 16:44 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.10 - Read the release notes at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucySalamander/ReleaseNotes | 16:44 |
| sandman13 | cfhowlett: here's what i have been upto, remove Unity completely and install Cinnamon | 16:44 |
| cfhowlett | !nounity | 16:44 |
| ubottu | 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 Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 16:44 |
| cfhowlett | sandman13, great. good luck. | 16:44 |
| anshulk | !unity | 16:45 |
| ubottu | Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity | 16:45 |

| raj__ | llutz: I did exactly that but since oracle jre wasn't installed via apt-get(as there is no package for oracle java) hence manually installed oracle jre is not being recognised by apt-get & when I remove openjdk it assumes there is no other jdk/jre .. though I properly configured via update-alternatives.. | 18:50 |

| raj__ | llutz: ppa is there.. webupd8 ppa but that is for jdk not for jre... I think thus I am only left with the "dpkg --force-depends --purge" option as atleast it does not remove tomcat7.. I hope that wont anyway lead my system into some bad state as unsatisfied dependecies if left may be sorted by apt-get -f install no ? | 18:53 |
| awakecoding | Walex: don't do it is not very helpful. I'm setting up a single VM to build for both 32-bit and 64-bit | 18:53 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: yes, the swap too | 18:53 |
| awakecoding | I already managed to do that correctly on Fedora | 18:53 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: continue | 18:54 |
| llutz | raj__: apt-get -f install should correct most of any problems. still, good luck | 18:54 |
| Wizar | i removed geforce 650, and switched pc to sandy bridge, however i have trouble booting, kdm logins to black screen, logining with gdm results in revert to login screen, is there a command in ubuntu to udate GPU config as if i have a new system? | 18:55 |
| ScarClaw | The_Evil: How much to swap? (3GB) And for / can I go lower than 10GB? | 18:55 |
| Walex | awakecoding: you have the right to do what you want, but using non-".deb" packages is something that has numerous disadvantages. | 18:55 |
| raj__ | llutz: thanks... or what do you think should I be installing a jdk when jre is enough for me just for the sake of using a ppa ? any idea on jdk/jres ? :) | 18:55 |
| Walex | Wizar: yes. Boot in recovery mode first. | 18:55 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: yes, to swap 1GB and / you can 7 or what you want (the standar is 10) | 18:56 |
| Walex | Wizar: but note that the black screen may be due to a kernel too old wrt to the GPU chip in your Intel CPU. | 18:56 |
| otherflow | Walex, i need a "tip of the day" on gnome startup | 18:56 |
| awakecoding | Walex: I am perfectly aware of this, and yes, this is still what I want to do. | 18:56 |
| llutz | raj__: the ppa would install a lot of useless stuff with the jdk but has the benefit of a clean installation. its your choice, hdd-space vs comfort | 18:56 |

| awakecoding | I'm in the early stages of a beta of my proprietary application I am shipping with its own build of Qt5. I do intend to come up with proper packages later on though | 18:57 |
| awakecoding | this is why I'm using prebuilt Qt5, as I'm using the very latest version of Qt5. my stuff can run on Ubuntu 12.04 | 18:57 |

| raj__ | llutz: yes.. thanks!! | 18:57 |
| Walex | awakecoding: to manage well the perils of non-".deb" packages one needs a level of sysadm under which one does not have to ask questions about dependencies. For example, are you aware of 'equiv' pseudopackages? | 18:57 |

| Walex | ScarClaw: the Linux kernel can use several swaps in parallel. | 18:59 |
| === bfiller_afk is now known as bfiller | ||
| otherflow | Walex, "fortune" ? | 18:59 |
| llutz | raj__: ^^ see ubottu , maybe that is a way to get a clean jre | 18:59 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: ok, then leave one | 18:59 |
| The_Evil | not two | 18:59 |
| Walex | otherflow: an ancient UNIX traditions. As always you can use 'apt-cache search ....' | 19:00 |
| The_Evil | if won't delete, leave | 19:00 |
| awakecoding | Walex: while you are at it, how would one properly ship Qt5 with an app for distribution on the ubuntu software center with compatibility back to 12.04, which didn't have Qt5? | 19:00 |
| ScarClaw | The_Evil: Then perhaps I should format or is it fine as is? | 19:00 |
| Walex | otherflow: try for example 'apt-cache search fortunes' | 19:00 |
| otherflow | Walex, ok ok | 19:00 |
| Walex | awakecoding: with a PPA.... | 19:00 |
| raj__ | llutz: thanks will have a look | 19:00 |

| gazzwi86 | why is my chrooted ftp user not able to login? I'm getting a -203 error | 19:01 |
| Walex | awakecoding: with a PPA. and a backport. | 19:01 |
| awakecoding | Walex: is there a "proper" Qt5 ppa backported to 12.04 that I could rely on? | 19:01 |
| ScarClaw | The_Evil: Sorry what I meant was Format the swap that does not allow me to delete it or leave it as it is? | 19:01 |
| awakecoding | and by Qt5, I mean the latest, 5.2.1 | 19:01 |
| Walex | awakecoding: you could create ones... | 19:01 |
| awakecoding | or I can just bundle a custom stripped build with my app | 19:02 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: no, is not neccesary format it | 19:02 |
| Walex | awakecoding: it is entirely possible for example to create a '.deb' from a binary | 19:02 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: leave as it is | 19:02 |
| awakecoding | I know | 19:02 |
| Iznougoud | I've recently upgraded from Ubuntu Server 13.04 to Ubuntu Server 13.10. After the upgrade I can't access password protected web directories on the Apache2 server for some reason. Any info on that? | 19:03 |
| Walex | awakecoding: some applications like Firefox ship their own set of '.so' files in their own little directory, this might be a somewhat dirty option. | 19:03 |
| ScarClaw | The_Evil: Okay so I have a / - 10GB, Swap - 3GB and the rest /home. Is that it? | 19:04 |
| awakecoding | right now what I have is a script that builds all my stuff, fixes rpaths, copies binaries dependencies in an isolated prefix. for Qt5, I decided I could probably just install them in lib/<myapp> to avoid conflicts with the rest, and have my own stripped down build of Qt5 used only by my app | 19:04 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: yes | 19:04 |
| awakecoding | so I could eventually build a proper .deb that would have dependency information and all the rest that could be installed on a system without conflicting with the rest | 19:04 |
| luckydb | what to learn python 2.x or 3.x ? :) | 19:05 |
| Walex | awakecoding: that would be nice. | 19:07 |
| ScarClaw | The_Evil: okay then we can proceed. The 3GB Extended partition is of use or not (It won't delete ether?) | 19:07 |
| Walex | awakecoding: probably you can scavenge an existing Qt5 source package and just replace the souces with the latest wiht some tweaking... | 19:07 |
| The_Evil | ScarClaw: yes, is in use, but after you cant resize :) | 19:08 |

| exstasea | alex116: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook | 19:15 |
| bekks | madghost: Of course it will work on that scale. Just ensure your hardware is capable of the load. And if you want reserved IP adresses for every user - why do you want DHCP at all? Why dont you just use static IPs then? | 19:17 |

| madghost | sorry for my bad English ( | 19:21 |
| bekks | madghost: Just use DHCP, and a very long lease time. No need to write mac adresses to any configs. | 19:21 |
| madghost | billing has to know IP address of any users at any time, for intelligence agency | 19:23 |
| madghost | it is condition. | 19:23 |

| RealKillaz | I will* | 19:25 |

| madghost | for example | 19:25 |

| madghost | bekks: out billing is very stupid program ( and tech support are lazy for doing this. ( | 19:26 |
| bekks | madghost: Then script the log analysis instead, not the server configuration. | 19:26 |

| bekks | xtbman: Which status in particular? | 19:34 |
| RealKillaz | bekks, that's why I think it is related with this specific server | 19:34 |

| RealKillaz | ohhh | 19:35 |

| xtbman | bekks ok I'm going to check a few more devices | 19:37 |
| bekks | xtbman: use a usb3 device, in first instance. | 19:38 |
| xtbman | bekks is there a certain command I can issue in Ubuntu to check whether the USB ports are functioning properly? | 19:39 |

| xtbman | bekks strange. It's possible in Windows. Oh well | 19:40 |
| bekks | xtbman: No, it isnt. Windows just shows you the driver state, nothing else. | 19:40 |

| cyberalex4life | ? | 19:44 |
| bekks | cyberalex4life: which "other trusty distros" do you mean? | 19:45 |
| madghost | bekks: can I ask you one more question? | 19:46 |
| bekks | madghost: Sure. | 19:46 |
| jjavaholic | how can I find out which application is causing higher than normal CPU usage calls to xorg? | 19:46 |
| cyberalex4life | xubuntu, kubuntu, lubuntu, ubuntu gnome, and maybe mint distros | 19:47 |
| bekks | cyberalex4life: We dont know anything about Mint, as it isnt supported in here. And the others will support exactly the same hardware as ubuntu does. | 19:47 |
| xtbman | yep, just tried 4 more other devices. Appears the port is dead | 19:47 |
| madghost | bekks: every user has their own tariff, and NAT do channel bandwidth by networks for example 172.19.x.x has 20Mb/sec 172.20.x.x has 40Mb/sec | 19:48 |
| cyberalex4life | yup, but nvidia-prime used to need lightdm and compiz, | 19:48 |
| bekks | madghost: Can you rephrase that please, I didnt undestand what you wrote. | 19:48 |
| cyberalex4life | i use now ubuntu gnome, and it has to be related to gdm | 19:48 |
| bekks | cyberalex4life: gnome does not require gdm, it will work with other DM too. | 19:49 |
| madghost | if I will use matching MAC with IP in dhcpd.conf I will can give some users their IP from some networks and their will have their bandwidth by tariff | 19:49 |
| bekks | madghost: How is that related to a dhcp server? | 19:49 |
| madghost | dhcp server give ip for users. | 19:50 |
| cyberalex4life | so I have to install lightdm instead of gdm and hope things will be ok? | 19:50 |
| madghost | And if I will write ip and mac in conf I will be control which user will get some IP address. | 19:50 |
| bekks | madghost: Use static IP adressing then. Static leases for 20k users is just nonsense. | 19:51 |
| madghost | sorry, but it is very difficult to me to describe what I want to say :( | 19:51 |
| norm | i've got isc-dhcp-server installed, but i don't want it to start automatically at boot. how can this be disabled? | 19:51 |
| madghost | :) I agree but in that case we have to setting up every modem with their own IP address. It's difficult. | 19:52 |
| bekks | madghost: It is fairly easy, and can be done within minutes before shipping the modem to the user. | 19:52 |
| jjavaholic | you can normally set your dhcp range with some spare slots for static Ip adresses | 19:53 |
| bekks | madghost: Or use infinite lease times. But dont use static leases. | 19:53 |
| trism | norm: looks like it uses upstart, so you can probably just use override files to disable the two jobs in /etc/init/ http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#override-files | 19:53 |
| llutz | madghost: you'll have to use a database with all the info (mac, ip, subnets, tarif etc.pp) and some scripting generating the dhcp-config from that database | 19:53 |
| madghost | We did it, and I like it, I wrote software for it. But our admins wants to use PPPoE. But I don't like PPPoE | 19:53 |
| bekks | madghost: you dont have to like it, you just have to use it :) | 19:53 |
| trism | norm: the two I see are /etc/init/isc-dhcp-server.conf and /etc/init/isc-dhcp-server6.conf | 19:53 |
| madghost | llutz: I want it | 19:53 |
| madghost | but I'm not sure, will be work dhcp with so huge database of ips and macs ? | 19:54 |
| llutz | madghost: i'm sure it works, i'd worry about performance | 19:54 |
| madghost | PPPoE is sucks :((( | 19:54 |
| bekks | madghost: Sure, why not. Just ensure your hardware is capable of the load - which was my first answer to your questions. | 19:55 |
| madghost | If I would to know what is hardware to need for it :) | 19:55 |

| xoexoe | hello everyone, I am trying to create a sub-partition under an extended partition, and getting this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7132435/ | 20:29 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: What command did you run to get that error? | 20:31 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, I was using ubuntu disk utility. I selected the free block, and then clicked on "create partition" | 20:32 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: What is the actual name of the utility? (gnome-disks, GParted, something else). You should see it in an "about" menu somewhere. | 20:34 |
| sandGorgon | http://www.geek.com/apple/ubuntu-14-04-drastically-improves-gaming-on-a-macbook-1588526/ ... so it's official. a macbook is the best linux machine out there. | 20:35 |

| daftykins | sandGorgon: lol. | 20:35 |
| daftykins | _no_ | 20:35 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, it is gnome disk utility | 20:36 |
| sandGorgon | daftykins, so which one ? a similar specced thinkpad is way more expensive. | 20:36 |
| daftykins | sandGorgon: i don't know what you're looking for | 20:37 |
| elcuco | sandGorgon: wtf? most of the macbook is not supported HW. No wifi our of the box, hotplug of thunderbolt displays... | 20:37 |

| === Havenstance is now known as Haven|Weekend | ||
| daftykins | elcuco: off topic. | 20:39 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, before it finished the output, it warns like this : "Error: Invalid partition table on /dev/sdc -- wrong signature 0. Ignore/Cancel?" | 20:39 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, shall I ignore and paste the output? | 20:39 |

| Jordan_U | xoexoe: Interesting that parted and gnome-disks complain about different device names, sdb vs sdc. Have you rebooted since you saved your gnome-disks error message? | 20:44 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, no. but I connected the disk to another machine before the current one. | 20:45 |

| lorenzo_ | Good afternoon. I have problems with intel graphics (module i915) on ubuntu 13.10. Is this the right place to ask for help? | 20:51 |
| Jordan_U | lorenzo_: Yes. | 20:51 |
| lorenzo_ | HW is an Acer V5-472 with HD 4000 graphics. When I boot with nosetmode only the internal display works, without nosetmode only the external display | 20:52 |
| lorenzo_ | and my kernel log is spammed with [drm:intel_dp_i2c_aux_ch] *ERROR* too many retries | 20:52 |
| lorenzo_ | Would be awesome if I could get both to work at the same time. | 20:53 |
| lorenzo_ | The i915 shows up in lsmod with or without the boot option | 20:53 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, I am a bit worried about other partitions on the disk. maybe I can just reinstall everything. I have some bad memories while fixing disks. | 20:53 |
| Jordan_U | lorenzo_: For an intel card, for full functionality you're going to need the Kernel Mode Setting driver, so I would start there and try to get the external display working. Please pastebin the output of "dmesg" and the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log after booting without the nomodeset kernel parameter (or any other special kernel parameters). | 20:54 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: Are you saying that you're considering wiping the entire drive and starting over instead of trying to fix what you have? | 20:55 |
| lorenzo_ | Jordan, Thank you. Will do and come back. | 20:55 |

| bododo | hi all | 21:09 |
| alphahawk98 | sup guys | 21:10 |
| bododo | I have a usb laser printer that I can't make work on any nix* system but that works fine on windows (yeah a driver thing) so I have this old PC and I thought to myself that I could share this printer with CUPS over the LAN. Is it doable even without a CUPS driver knowing that the windows machines have the driver installed? | 21:11 |
| JFranks | Installing Ubuntu Server 12.04.4 LTS from disc.. All good till I hit the GRUB install .. The default in the prompt is "/drive/mapper/" ?? I chose the LVM option for the whole disk (2 x 500gb RAID Mirror) and I swore it said it was sda1 ? ... but none of my guesses work.. /drive/sda/ /drive/sda1/ and the default /drive/mapper/ all fail? | 21:11 |
| Jordan_U | bododo: Windows printer sharing requires the remote machine to have a driver for the printer as well, so no. | 21:12 |
| bododo | Jordan_U: I'm not talking about SAMBA, just plain cups | 21:12 |
| bododo | still not doable? | 21:12 |
| Naphatul | is ubuntu juju supposed to fit a similar role to ansible? | 21:13 |
| Jordan_U | JFranks: Do you have a partition table on the disk, or only LVM? | 21:13 |
| === cmagina is now known as cmagina-away | ||
| === marcello1 is now known as Guest36209 | ||
| JFranks | Jordan_U: Just now during the install I told the installer to use the entire disk with LVM | 21:13 |
| Jordan_U | bododo: How do you plan to share the printer over the network from the Windows machine? | 21:13 |
| bododo | this: (windowsmachine)----LAN--->(NIX machine and CUPS)---USB-->(laser printer) | 21:14 |
| JFranks | Jordan_U: Which was 498mb or something.. | 21:14 |
| Jordan_U | JFranks: That leaves no place for a bootloader. So you'll either need to re-do that with a partition table, or install grub's boot sector and core.img to another drive that does have a partition table. | 21:14 |
| bododo | Jordan_U: the printer will be attached to a nix machine, not to a windows one | 21:14 |
| JFranks | Ahhh nice.. I do have 2 spare hot-swap bays.. but I don't want to start the install all over.. Waah. ;) | 21:15 |
| Jordan_U | bododo: Ahh, I don't know if that would work or not. My suspicion is not though. | 21:15 |
| madghost | Who knows, should I restart ISC-DHCP-SERVER after modify dhcpd.conf ? | 21:15 |
| bekks | madghost: Yes. | 21:16 |
| Smilex | I installed a kernel from git that I just compiled and the Nvidia driver is failing. How can I switch between my driver options via command line? I did it using Software Updates before | 21:16 |
| bododo | Jordan_U: ok, thanks anyway :) I'll try and report back.In fact I'll be using openbsd as a nix machine | 21:16 |
| bekks | madghost: The config is read once, not continously. | 21:16 |
| bododo | just wondering about CUPS setup and whether a driver is required on the server | 21:16 |
| AfraidToShootStr | Does the driver support for Ubuntu 12.04 differ from 13.10? I recently got an X1 Carbon on which I wish to install Ubuntu. However I wonder which version has the "best" support for the required drivers belonging to the X1 Carbon | 21:16 |
| madghost | bekks: So, If I added some host { mac; ip;} I have to restart server? | 21:16 |
| madghost | hm | 21:16 |
| bekks | madghost: Yes. You can see, your approach with static leases is pointless. | 21:17 |
| madghost | yes, but I have no see other method :( | 21:17 |
| bekks | madghost: Then you havent read what I told you. | 21:18 |
| bekks | madghost: I told you how to solve your design issue. | 21:18 |
| madghost | dinamic ip without mapping mac and ip ? | 21:18 |
| bekks | madghost: DHCP without static leases but using inifinite lease times. | 21:19 |
| bekks | madghost: And evaluating the logs instead to script the server setup. | 21:19 |
| madghost | but how I can give users bandwidth into Internet? | 21:20 |
| madghost | static ip isn't variant :( | 21:21 |
| bekks | madghost: The same way. After evaluating the logs, you know his IP since you know his MAC. Then just modify bandwidth for that IP. | 21:21 |
| madghost | in realtime? | 21:21 |
| Beldar | AfraidToShootStr, the later the release the more updated drivers, theoretically, of what's there or added. Try it from a live dvd/usb and see. This is a uefi computer so just be aware. | 21:22 |
| bekks | madghost: For 20k, nothing will happen in realtime. | 21:22 |
| bekks | madghost: 20k clients. | 21:22 |
| bekks | madghost: And your NAT approach will not give a user more bandwidth at all. | 21:22 |
| madghost | I admit that one time per day I can load data from log into database of billing. But how I can control NAT for bandwidth with logs? | 21:23 |
| bekks | madghost: NAT has nothing to do with bandwidth. | 21:23 |
| bekks | madghost: NAT is Native Address Translation not "Magically give more bandwidth". | 21:24 |
| madghost | I think it to do one server. | 21:24 |
| madghost | the same server | 21:25 |
| madghost | NAT + bandwidth | 21:25 |
| === lysobit is now known as yoloOppenheimer | ||
| bekks | madghost: So you have three requirements: DHCP without static leases but infinite leasetimes, NAT and bandwidth control. | 21:25 |
| madghost | yes | 21:26 |
| bekks | madghost: So how do you want to control bandwidth, using Ubuntu? | 21:26 |
| madghost | I don't remember, through iptables ? | 21:26 |
| bekks | madghost: With 20k rules in iptables, only for the bandwidth control? That will be a monster server, with quadrillions of CPU and cintilliards of MB of RAM. :) | 21:27 |
| madghost | http://www.linuxcenter.ru/lib/articles/networking/qos_linux.phtml | 21:29 |
| madghost | I did it by this article | 21:29 |
| madghost | :) | 21:29 |
| bekks | madghost: Yeah - did you ever try that for 20k clients at once? | 21:29 |
| madghost | actualy not, I use it for small count of wifi users. | 21:30 |
| bekks | madghost: It works for a small number of clients, but it will perform bad for 20k clients at once. | 21:30 |
| madghost | I just find the way to do same in Internet users instead of PPPoE | 21:30 |
| afief | Hello, my PC has windows7 installed, it has two NTFS partitions, one is 100MB and the other is quite big, I assume the 100MB is the EFI partition, but the Ubuntu installer expects efi partitions to be vfat not ntfs | 21:31 |
| bekks | madghost: I ont see a single reason to raise more problems than benefits just for the sake of getting rid of PPPoE. | 21:31 |
| bekks | *dont | 21:31 |
| ekarlso | any reason Trusty aka 14.04 gives device names aka "renameX" ? | 21:31 |
| bekks | afief: The 100M partition is the Windows 7 rescue partition. | 21:31 |
| madghost | oh. | 21:31 |
| madghost | 90% of users have Dlink DSL-2500 | 21:32 |
| madghost | and this modems don't work in Router mode more then 3-4mb/sec. | 21:32 |
| bekks | madghost: That doesnt matter actually. The design you are going to implement will fail. | 21:32 |
| madghost | sad ( | 21:32 |
| afief | bekks: So all I need is a partition for Ubuntu and grub will manage to find both windows and linux? | 21:32 |
| bekks | afief: Thats how it should work, yes. | 21:33 |
| Jordan_U | afief: You have a BIOS based Windows installation, which has a small "System Partition" used by Windows, which is not the same as an EFI System Partition. | 21:33 |
| Jordan_U | bekks: afief: The 100 MiB partition is *not* a rescue partition, it is the Windows "System Partition" as I explained above. | 21:34 |
| bekks | Jordan_U: Despite the naming (which you are correct with) - afaik just a bunch of files used for rescueing a system is stored on that partition. | 21:35 |
| BitStick | can somebody assist me with something? | 21:35 |
| vladimir | hello. i have a problem trying to upgrade ubuntu due to boot sector full | 21:35 |
| Jordan_U | bekks: No, completely wrong. That partition stores most of the bootloader, and removing it will prevent Windows from being able to boot at all. | 21:35 |
| Smilex | How do I change my video driver from terminal? | 21:36 |
| BitStick | i downloaded the drivers from amd for my apu, and it gives me a zip file. and if i extract that i get a run file | 21:36 |
| madghost | isc-dhcp-server is restarting fast | 21:36 |
| BitStick | but nothing ive found on google is of help, so i dont know how to actually install it | 21:36 |
| Jordan_U | vladimir: "boot sector full" doesn't make sense. What are command are you running / what are you doing to try to upgrade and what is the exact error message you're recieving? | 21:36 |
| bekks | madghost: Much too slow for regular activities with 20k clients. | 21:36 |
| madghost | so, i need to add about 20k records into dhcpd.conf and will try to restart | 21:37 |
| BitStick | and i cant right click and open with terminal because its not in the list | 21:37 |
| bekks | Jordan_U: Thanks for the clarification :) | 21:37 |
| Jordan_U | bekks: You're welcome :) | 21:37 |
| bekks | BitStick: Why dont you use the driver from the ubuntu repos? | 21:37 |
| bekks | BitStick: Which GPU do you have actually? | 21:37 |
| vladimir | @jordan - thanx 4 your response | 21:37 |

| Jordan_U | rymate1234: Then XFCE is probably a good choice for you. | 22:05 |
| rymate1234 | no it isnt | 22:05 |
| rymate1234 | xfce is not gnome 2 | 22:05 |
| kart | bekks: any other suggestions ?? | 22:06 |
| Guest13890 | well pc appears to be broken lol. no display. but ill go ahead and switch over to 12.04 and retry. | 22:06 |
| madghost | so, I have to find other DHCP server, with external database with dynamic load ip/macs | 22:06 |
| Guest13890 | thank you for the help, i shall be back! | 22:06 |
| madghost | Who know it ? | 22:06 |
| Jordan_U | rymate1234: MATE may be more to your liking then, though it isn't officially supported in Ubuntu (yet). | 22:07 |
| rymate1234 | ok | 22:07 |
| rymate1234 | thnx | 22:07 |
| Jordan_U | rymate1234: You're welcome. | 22:07 |
| Guest13890 | oh wait a minute. my hdmi is working | 22:09 |
| Guest13890 | nice | 22:09 |
| Guest13890 | but no sound. bah brb 12.04 it is. | 22:11 |
| Jordan_U | Guest13890: Hopefully you are using 12.04 now. If not, I remind you that the OS you're using is *insecure*. It has known vulnerabilities which have not been patched. If you value security, or any support (like help from this channel), then you need to upgrade. | 22:11 |

| sudormrf | hey guys. I am trying to understand something. I am using ubuntu 12.04.4 I have the latest updates. I use apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade to perform these, however my kernel version is still 3.8.0-37. Shouldn't it be 3.11? | 22:21 |
| root_Frankd | hollo guys,i'm using backtrack linux and i have some problem using it cause i'm new to this distro,how do i go in backtrack chat room so that i can ask some quetions about it? | 22:21 |
| OerHeks | root_Frankd, you have been told, BT is not supported here, thanks | 22:22 |
| OerHeks | type /join #backtrack-linux | 22:23 |
| root_Frankd | how do i get in backtrack 5 chat room? | 22:24 |
| OerHeks | !repeat | root_Frankd | 22:25 |
| ubottu | root_Frankd: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 22:25 |
| kart | hello teammm. any suggestion of ways i could send input to multiple servers/screens/shellsat the same time? i used to use a mac program called csshX before to acheive that, but recently made a switch to ubuntu, and am looking for a program that does similar stuff. | 22:25 |
| Jordan_U | root_Frankd: Backtrack has been discontinued, you're not likely to find support for it anywhere. | 22:25 |
| seednode | root_Frankd, can I PM? | 22:26 |
| OerHeks | Jordan_U, great, we need to update that factoid :-D | 22:26 |
| root_Frankd | PM what? | 22:26 |
| seednode | Private message you | 22:27 |
| root_Frankd | ok.. | 22:27 |
| root_Frankd | wer? | 22:27 |
| seednode | What IRC client are you using? | 22:27 |
| root_Frankd | hey seednode,wer u from? | 22:30 |
| Jordan_U | root_Frankd: This channel is only for Ubuntu support. seednode would like to help you figure out how to continue in a PM I'm OK with that right now, but that is all (other than Ubuntu support). | 22:31 |
| lorenzo_ | I am new here and I don't know much about etiquette on IRC. As users constantly join and leave, is it OK to resend one's question if nobody could answer so far? | 22:32 |
| seednode | lorenzo_, within reason, yes, you can re-ask questions; however, I'd personally recommend waiting half an hour at least between them | 22:33 |
| seednode | someone else might know better | 22:33 |
| magoody | hi | 22:38 |
| seednode | lorenzo_, as for your question; have you tried hitting F6 at boot and selecting the "NOMODESET" option? | 22:38 |
| seednode | Try that and let me know if it boots properly | 22:38 |
| lorenzo_ | It boots properly. With nomodeset ONLY the internal display works. without nomodeset ONLY the external works and i get the flood of drm errors in dmesg | 22:38 |
| lorenzo_ | therefore Jordan_U suggested that pastebin dmesg and xorg.log which I did. Only that I don't understand those files. | 22:39 |
| seednode | Well, reading through it, nothing is jumping out to me as making sense | 22:39 |
| lorenzo_ | I don't like the [drm:intel_dp_i2c_aux_ch] *ERROR* too many retries, giving up. | 22:40 |
| JFranks | So 3 weeks ago we got a bunch of old servers.. I took a Sunfire X4100 and tried to get Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS onto it with both USB key and CD.. but I couldn't get it to boot. So I tried another, this one just installs and then reboots to "Video Mode not Supported" .. Tried a 3rd.. "Video Mode not Supported" .. Pulled out a spare PC, installed off the same disc, works fine.. get everything setup.. try another server in the pile, this time a | 22:40 |
| BitStick | can someone walk me through installing network manager? | 22:40 |
| JFranks | workstation MB in a 4U chassis with ICH7 chipset.. Install goes fine.. reboot.. "Video Mode not Supported" .. I've tried taking the KVM out of the setup, tried a Samsun 2243 LCD which says "Video Mode not Optimal" but doesn't display either.. :p | 22:40 |
| BitStick | err uninstalling | 22:40 |
| lorenzo_ | My kernel should NEVER give up. ;-) | 22:41 |
| BitStick | anyone know how to unistall network manager in 13.10 | 22:41 |
| seednode | lorenzo_, if this is a laptop, what model is it? | 22:41 |
| lorenzo_ | It is an Acer V5-472 with intel HD 4000 graphics chipset | 22:41 |
| seednode | And the external monitor is using HDMI? | 22:41 |
| lorenzo_ | VGA | 22:42 |
| seednode | Hm | 22:42 |
| lorenzo_ | old ray cannon monitor | 22:42 |
| seednode | And has this happened on older kernels, if you've tried? | 22:42 |
| JFranks | That's what I want.. I want an old CRT to hookup and see WTF video mode isn't supported.. | 22:42 |
| lorenzo_ | yes, on older too and on both 32 and 64 bit | 22:42 |
| lorenzo_ | i tried 3.8, 3.10 and some other | 22:43 |
| JFranks | I'm tempted to drive to a storage locker and pickup an old 19" CRT I have buried because I cannot see how 3 installs could all be bad.. | 22:43 |
| lorenzo_ | 3.11 now same behaviour | 22:43 |
| JFranks | Hmmm.. What are the odds that SSHd is running.. ? I wonder if I can get the IP of the box and shell in.. ? | 22:44 |
| BitStick | can someone help me uninstall network manager please? | 22:44 |
| daftykins | JFranks: sorry only just read a couple of scrollback messages, you've tried nomodeset i take it? | 22:44 |
| seednode | BitStick, well, to uninstall it, apt-get remove network-manager might work, however | 22:44 |
| seednode | I'm not sure if that will break other things, honestly | 22:44 |
| BitStick | well i got wicd | 22:44 |
| lorenzo_ | Another detail: without nomodeset the Fn-keys like brightness, sound, mirror screen work. with nomodeset they dont. ACPI? | 22:44 |
| afief | Hello, I just install Ubuntu as a dual boot, but after setup finished and restarted I'm still getting Windows (no grub to pick from) | 22:46 |
| JFranks | daftykins: Sorry don't know what you mean. I have very little experience with Ubuntu install issues.. up till now it WORKS. At one point on one of the 'video mode not supported' sunfire x4100 attempts I booted off the install disc, went to the rescue option, edited /etc/defaults/grub .. I uncommented the nogui .. didn't change anything.. I uncommented the 640x480 video mode line.. changed nothing.. I even uncommented the beep tone.. didn't notice | 22:47 |
| JFranks | a difference.. I was probably editing the wrong file.. It was only an hour or so wasted.. | 22:47 |
| Beldar | afief, What OS is up on the computer now? | 22:47 |
| Beldar | running | 22:47 |
| afief | Beldar: Windows 7 64bit | 22:48 |

| ubottu | afief: Boot info script is a usefull script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). | 22:48 |
| daftykins | !nomodeset | JFranks | 22:48 |
| ubottu | JFranks: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 22:48 |
| Cheekio | We're up to T with Trusty, what happens when we get to Z? | 22:48 |
| Beldar | afief, Look at that bootinfo link, that is what I was getting to in the end. | 22:48 |

| KeOps | this one | 22:55 |
| KeOps | is it official another version of Ubuntu ? | 22:56 |
| daftykins | ubuntu with gnome as the default DE obviously | 22:56 |
| joustin | It's Ubuntu with the Gnome x-windows interface | 22:56 |
| JFranks | daftykins: Sure. I can tell you anything.. I could take a video.. Power on the machine.. the ATI bios on the ancient PCI video card shows.. then the Intel BIOS screen .. F2 to enter setup.. Then the Intel ICH7 Raid config comes up.. spots the 2 x sata disks in a raid mirror.. then I get some bios #s at the bottom right 0E, 0F, then the screen goes blank, then "Video mode not supported" or whatever | 22:56 |
| JFranks | This is on the 4th machine, not the Sunfire x4100s | 22:56 |

| daftykins | JFranks: this is post-install? what did the liveCD do? | 22:57 |
| JFranks | Going to check and see if it's pulling an IP from DHCP and see if I can SSH into it | 22:57 |
| JFranks | daftykins: post install .. "live cd"? | 22:57 |

| daftykins | else the spam bots will silence and/or kick you. | 23:00 |
| daftykins | JFranks: if you reinstalled without that, it'd be the same packages as on the live session and so things would work | 23:01 |

| sudormrf | daftykins, yeah. I was expecting to see 3.11. I update the box pretty aggressively. the initial installation was 12.04 (no number). | 23:05 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, it asks me something there. should I go on, or just quit? | 23:06 |

| afief | Jordan_U: For some reason it didn't give me the option of "side by side" in the selection, so I had to go with manual or have it delete windows | 23:11 |
| afief | Jordan_U: I'm pretty sure I didn't | 23:11 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Well grub's boot sector doesn't appear to be installed anywhere, and Ubuntu's installer installs it to the MBR by default, so unless there was an error message from the installer or you changed a setting related to grub I'm not sure how this situation came about. | 23:13 |

| JFranks | So what could I do now I'm on the shell, to make sure this machine never tries to use graphics.. no 1080p grub.. just VGA? | 23:25 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Not according to boot info script it's not. sda5 has your /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/. | 23:25 |
| limac | rommel, Bashing-om, no it's on the same on as the linux partition | 23:25 |
| rommel | limac it would be easier to back it up and just reinstall | 23:26 |
| nomine | Does anyone have any ideea why cerbere fails to load its watched processes? | 23:26 |
| limac | rommel: oh I see. Ok, thank you! | 23:26 |
| Bashing-om | limac: Then so far as I know, you back up your impotant data (should be done anyway) and (re-)install to get 64 bit. | 23:26 |
| limac | Bashing-om: got it! thanks! | 23:27 |
| Jordan_U | afief: for dir in dev proc sys dev/pts; do sudo mount --bind "/$dir/" "/mnt/$dir/"; done | 23:27 |
| JFranks | Going to try and uncomment line 20 of /etc/default/grub "GRUB_TERMINAL=console" | 23:27 |

| Bashing-om | limac: good luck . | 23:27 |
| Jordan_U | JFranks: Remember to run update-grub afterward to have the change take effect. | 23:28 |
| afief | Jordan_U: I did a reinstall after I sent you that one to eleminate the chance of me having changed the grub target by mistake | 23:29 |
| JFranks | Jordan_U: Wait wat? | 23:29 |
| netameta | i'm getting 504 Gateway Time-out on my server, i am running an ec2 small server , that has nginx/node/php5-fpm/mysql install on it. | 23:29 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, what can I do now? http://paste.ubuntu.com/7133245/ | 23:30 |
| Jordan_U | JFranks: What part of my comment don't you understand? | 23:30 |
| JFranks | Jordan_U: I spent 3 days trying to fix boot issues editing that file and not one fracking document said I had to run a util after.. OMFG | 23:30 |
| afief | Jordan_U: Here is what it looks like now: http://pastebin.com/YPWf51Ad | 23:30 |
| Jordan_U | JFranks: The first line of the file is "# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update /boot/grub/grub.cfg". | 23:32 |
| === cmagina is now known as cmagina-away | ||
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: Enter 'p', and confirm that you see all of the partitions you care about listed. | 23:32 |
| netameta | Anyone with a slight lclue on my question ? | 23:33 |
| xoexoe | yes, all the partitions are listed. | 23:33 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Did you run the mount and bind mount commands I gave you? | 23:34 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, yes, all the partitions are listed. | 23:34 |
| JFranks | Jordan_U: Ahhh I can barely read that blue on black font.. yeeeesh.. yep there's the info that would have been so handy. ;) | 23:34 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: Great. I expect that if you enter "w" to write the partition table to disk and exit that it will fix the problem. | 23:34 |
| afief | Jordan_U, should I do that after mounting sda5 or sda8? (sda8 holds the current root) | 23:35 |
| canty | hola gente | 23:35 |
| Jordan_U | JFranks: Note that if you're modifying it from a LiveCD/USB you'll need to chroot into the system to run update-grub, or for a temporary fix you can just "echo terminal_output console | sudo tee /mountpoint/boot/grub/custom.cfg" (be sure to delete /boot/grub/custom.cfg once you're done configuring the sytem properly). | 23:36 |
| Jordan_U | afief: sda5 certainly contains a root filesystem, as evidenced by the /etc/fstab in it. | 23:37 |
| afief | Jordan_U, ok I ran the mount and mount --bind | 23:37 |
| JFranks | Jordan_U: Lucky for me I went with SSH installs so I can still get into the systems when I get the IP right.. ;) | 23:37 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, to make sure..I now enter w at the below command here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7133295/ ? | 23:37 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: Correct. | 23:38 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, this is the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7133314/ | 23:41 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: Great. Please pastebin the output of "sudo fixparts /dev/sdc" again, which will hopefully no longer have any error messages. | 23:42 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, now I can delete the partitions, problem solved..thank you so so very much for helping me all along from the start! | 23:43 |
| afief | Jordan_U, I executed the commands you gave me, what should I do now? | 23:43 |
| xoexoe | I am pasting it | 23:43 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: You're welcome. | 23:43 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Your prompt should now end with '# ' rather than '$ '. Does it? | 23:44 |
| Jordan_U | afief: If it does, please pastebin the output of "debconf-show grub-pc" from that shell. | 23:45 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, this is the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7133330/ | 23:45 |
| afief | Jordan_U, no it's still $ | 23:45 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Ahh, I forgot "sudo chroot /mnt/". | 23:45 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: Great, you now have a completely valid partition table :). 'q' to quit fixparts. | 23:46 |
| afief | Jordan_U, now it's # | 23:46 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Great. Please run "debconf-show grub-pc" and pastebin the output. | 23:46 |
| xoexoe | Jordan_U, many many thanks! | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | xoexoe: You're welcome :) | 23:47 |
| xoexoe | good night! | 23:47 |
| xoexoe | or day :) | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | afief: I'll be away for a few minutes. | 23:48 |
| afief | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/Cd7T25Yq | 23:48 |
| afief | Jordan_U: Take your time, and thanks in advance for all the help | 23:48 |
| Guest13890 | hey Jordan. just wanted to say thank you for the help earlier with my gfx related issue | 23:49 |
| Guest13890 | 12.04 really did solve all issues | 23:49 |
| Jordan_U | afief: That's an impressively odd bug you've hit there. Please file a bug report including that output. "upgrade-from-grub-legacy" should get you a bootable system (assuming it doesn't report any errors installing grub). | 23:50 |
| afief | Jordan_U the installation finished smoothly, no issues at all. Could you explain what the output of the last command you gave me means? I don't understand it | 23:51 |
| sennin | algun server voip gratis | 23:51 |
| afief | Jordan_U: Where do I find the upgrade-from-grub-legacy? | 23:52 |
| rww | !es | 23:52 |
| ubottu | En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 23:52 |
| Jordan_U | afief: It's a command that should be available. Run it. | 23:53 |
| Jordan_U | afief: It means that the grub-pc package thinks you're in a transitionary state between grub-legacy and grub-pc, which is clearly not the case as this is a fresh install. | 23:53 |
| kiezr | Jordan_U> Would https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair help in this situation? | 23:54 |
| afief | Jordan_U: It's not available, says I can get it from grub-pc, which according to apt-get is replaced by grub-efi-amd64, grub2-common, grub-common | 23:54 |
| Jordan_U | afief: apt-get install grub-pc | 23:54 |
| Jordan_U | kiezr: Possibly. | 23:54 |
| kiezr | I have this issue all the time on the builds here at work | 23:55 |
| kiezr | Only ever see it on the HP Z620's | 23:55 |
| afief | Jordan_U: This is what I get when I try to apt-get it: http://pastebin.com/3im9cDUu | 23:55 |
| sacrelicious | is there another program for making a live bootable usb drive? For some reason the startup disk creator is not working | 23:56 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Now I'm really confused. What version of Ubuntu did you install? | 23:56 |
| afief | Jordan_U: Kubuntu 13.10 | 23:57 |
| sacrelicious | it keeps crashing part way through the process | 23:57 |
| k0fee | how do i stop system-wide any kind of "sessions" tried, sessions and startup, clearing cache, so whatever service is doing this like to disable it | 23:57 |
| Beldar | sacrelicious, unetbootin is another, there are handfulls. | 23:58 |
| sacrelicious | Beldar, thanks I will give it a shot, not too sure whats going on, i've tried it with a couple different distros and usb keys. | 23:59 |
| kiezr | sacrelicious, What OS are you building the bootable from? | 23:59 |
| Jordan_U | afief: Try running "grub-install /dev/sda". | 23:59 |
| sacrelicious | kiezr, the latest version of tails | 23:59 |
