wolfy1339I've got a folder with lots of sub-folers containing files i want to delete, using a specific name, is it possible to do this? if so how?00:00
ShutterBCwhen I mount the drive on my other machine here, I can see vmlinuz.efi just fine00:00
silenzis there a way to change the dpi settings in ubuntu?00:01
ShutterBCmeh -- not worth my time, I'm wiping out this image, doing a bad block test, and calling it a day00:02
ShutterBCwolfy1339, you want to delete a certain file name pattern from a bunch of subdirectories?00:02
wolfy1339ShutterBC, yes00:04
ShutterBCwolfy1339, I'm too out of practice at scripting but this is doable00:06
dcmgwolfy1339:00:06
dcmgas an example00:06
dcmg mkdir -p frogs/snake/dog ; touch frogs/cakes frogs/snake/cakes frogs/snake/dog/cakes00:07
dcmgfind frogs -name cakes00:07
dcmg for i in `find frogs -name cakes` ; do echo "${i}" ; done00:08
dcmgif you replace that "echo" with rm it would remove all the files00:08
wolfy1339ok00:09
ShutterBCnice example building up the solution :)00:12

flewphi, how can I resize default font of urxvt?00:14
dcmgflewp: I believe you specify the size in your ~/.Xresources configuration file00:16
flewpdcmg: yes, I was wondering what the default font was called, could not find it anywhere00:16
flewpalso which setting to be exact, I think it's URxvt.font: xft:monaco:size=1000:17
flewpbut it's not monaco00:17
dcmgmaybe try this in ~/.Xdefaults    URxvt*font: -xos4-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-15,xft:terminus:pixelsize:1200:21
dcmgmake a backup of the file first, and make sure your system wont get damaged00:21
flewpdcmg: urxvt: unable to load base fontset, please specify a valid one using -fn, aborting.00:22
jbates58hi all. i am looking to setup a spare machine i have as a ubuntu firewall/router for my home network. my plan is to use it like so. have the ubuntu machine as a centra backup location where all of our computer data syncs to, run my download clients on it and use it to stream media to the house (if possible). but i also want it to be able to limit both the quota and speed of data to the download00:24
jbates58clients running on the same machine. is this possible? am i able to make a virtual network adaptor, and have the downloader use that, and then limit that ip? or does it not work like that? i am interested in learning how this all works and providing an extra layer of security to my network. not that it has ever been broken into, its only a home connection.00:24
Pinkamena_Dconsistently, when I use my thinkpad t60 with a docking station, if I suspend and resume, the screen just flashes once or twice a second and will not unfreeze. cant switch to terminal, only sysrq works. Any idea what would cause this? some video driver issue?00:24

=== fedora is now known as Cydrobolt
GeoHi... I'm looking to create a login-based file sharing site a little more user-friendly/easy on the eyes than hosting something over FTP or HTTP... does anyone have a suggestion for a program that would do this?00:27
KyouReeUs4nfo_Geo: something like Dropbox?00:29
RasAlGhulIs anyone else having trouble with Flash/youtube on the latest version of Ubuntu?00:29
KyouReeUs4nfo_RasAlGhul: what kind of trouble?00:30
RasAlGhulLike it not working00:30
RasAlGhulEver since that flash player update00:30
GeoKyouReeUs4nfo_: something like that would work, yes... is there an opensource equivilent?00:30
RasAlGhulYoutube just gives an error00:31
GeoI'm not looking to install anything on the user-end computer though, it should be available via the web00:32
rspinuzRasAlGhul: Your answer is not helpful at all.00:32
EthanryanHow can I install firefox 29 beta on ubuntu?00:32
RasAlGhulrspinuz: the youtube error is not descriptive00:32
RasAlGhulit just gives me a black box where the video should be and says an error has occured, click here to learn more00:33
Sector_0is there a way to install the proprietary ATI drivers (fglrx) and still have the mesa drivers active in case I want to use my built in chipset?00:33
Sector_0basically my situation is this...00:33
pfifoSector_0: yes00:34
rspinuzRasAlGhul: What browser, have you tried a different one?00:34
Sector_0I have a built in intel chipset and a separate AT radeon 5500HD Redwood00:34
RasAlGhulI have not, but that does not really help me because this is my only browser.00:34
Sector_0I would like to be able to simply reboot and switch the vga cable on the fly00:34
rspinuzRasAlGhul: Please use nick tags when talking directly to someone00:35
Sector_0pfifo: so if I install the fglrx driver would I be able to restart, plug the vga cable to the built in graphic card and have a work properly?00:35
Doctor_N1ckubantu00:35
KyouReeUs4nfo_Geo: pastelink.me is not necessarily open-source but it doesn't need any sign-ups00:36
Doctor_N1ckwhats the ubuntu offtopic channel00:36
GeoNeed to host it locally00:36
rspinuzRasAlGhul: How do you know it does not help you?00:36
EthanryanWhat ppa should I add to get firefox beta (specifically version 29)?00:36
jak2000hi all00:36
GeoI'm finding owncloud... it looks like overkill, but I tihnk it has what I need in it00:36
KyouReeUs4nfo_Geo: looking00:36
Beldar!ot | Doctor_N1ck00:36
pfifoSector_0: no, it will keep using the fglrx driver, you would have to disable it before rebooting, but other than that, you can switch back and forth. have you considered dual monitors00:36
ubottuDoctor_N1ck: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks!00:37
jak2000i run this command rsync -avzhe ssh root@192.168.0.100:/root/install.log /tmp/   ask me a password of pc: 192.168.0.100, i want type these command in a shell script, how to put the password?00:37
rspinuzRasAlGhul: You are the one asking for help, I think you should listen to the advice given more so then question everything.00:37
jak2000put/write00:37
RasAlGhulrspinuz: I just want to know the answer to my question. Did Ubuntu break flash?00:37
RasAlGhulDid Adobe discontinue Linux flash support?00:37
Beldaryes00:37
Sector_0pfifo: but dont both monitors have to connect to the same video card?00:37
pfifojak2000: you dont. use passwordless logins ove ssh00:37
pfifoSector_0: nope00:37
rspinuzRasAlGhul: Again what browser are you using and have you tried another browser00:38
Sector_0can linux use two graphics drivers at once?00:38
EthanryanRasAlGhul they stopped releasing new feature updates, but continue to update for security.00:38
RasAlGhulFirefox00:38
Din_Weaselwhy the heck do you need a firefox beta, use a stable version00:38
jak2000pfifo, but via ssh, too ask me a password00:38
jak2000rsync -avzhe ssh root@192.168.0.100:/root/install.log /tmp/00:38
rspinuzRasAlGhul: Again with the nick tagging please00:39
EthanryanDin_Weasel I'm definitely in the power user category and would like to try out the new Australis interface.00:39

pfifoSector_0: you cant use a accelrated nvidia and an accelrated ati at the same time, but you can use one of them, and the plain VESA driver that comes with xorg00:39
Sector_0pfifo: oh ok00:40
pfifojak2000: make it so ssh does not ask for a password by http://www.linuxproblem.org/art_9.html00:41
Geopfifo: While we're talking about video cards, allow me to jump in- I have an ATI Rage XL video card which does not function on Ubuntu 12.04- how can I remedy that? I assume I need to install some driver?00:41
rspinuzjbates58: Continually asking is not going to get you help any faster.   Sometimes people are busy,00:41
Sector_0pfifo: the reason I asked the question though was because at the moment my ATI is giving troubles and I don't want to completely put it aside, so in the event I turn on my computer tomorrow and I have no output I'd like to fall back the integrated graphics00:41
pfifoGeo: isnt rage like 20 years old?00:41
Sector_0how do you suggest I work around that one?00:41
rspinuzRasAlGhul: what version of flash?00:41
jak2000pfifo thanks00:42
jbates58@rspinuz. sorry mate. just wasnt sure if it was seen,00:42
RasAlGhulhow do I find out what version I have00:42
pfifoSector_0: if it fails completly you can take it out of the box and ubuntu will automatically use the built in one00:42
RasAlGhulits the latest one, I just updated it00:42
jak2000pfifo you know about certificates and keys right? how to generate a .cer and a .key?00:42
Bashing-omSector_0: Nother option, make up xorg.conf files and set which .conf file to use when re-booting ->http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=174353500:42
Geopfifo: no clue, but its what is inside the box I'm using at this time00:42
pfifojak2000: follow the instructions in that link00:42
rspinuzjbates58: It is two large blocks of text.  Everyone sees it.  Trust me.00:42
pfifoGeo: can you run 'sudo lshw && lspci' and pastebin the results00:43
GeoWould you like me to grep out the video portions?00:43
EndymionMIs there a PDF printer built into Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS?  Or what's the best one I can install in your experiences?00:43
jak2000pfifo yes no problem, its other dude...00:43
pfifoGeo: dosent matter to me, ive seen thousands of those00:43
KyouReeUs4nfo_Geo: https://cloudant.com ; open-source development of this project underway00:43
pfifoEndymionM: I had one by default in ubuntu/unity 13.1000:44
dcmgEndymionM: in libreoffice00:44
dcmgyou may need to push it a little to convert the .pdf, but that is the idea00:44
EndymionMpfifo, dcmg: Unfortunately, that doesn't allow me to print, say, a coupon sent to me by e-mail.00:45
pfifojak2000: there is no other dude involved here, its all you, you generate the keys, you copy it to the server your sshing to and you never have to type a password again00:45
dcmgi think it may even have an ability to printf .pdf directly00:45
pfifoEndymionM: it will print it to a file00:45
Geohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/7138669/00:45
Geopfifo ^^00:45
KyouReeUs4nfo_Geo: https://cloudant.com/blog/quilter-open-source-file-sharing/00:46
dcmgGeo: look into using the PPA, for the older ATI cards perhaps00:46
Geomeh, pastebinit only took one arg, stby for the second one00:46
jak2000ok, i want generate a .cer and a key and do auth web page with this cert and key file, how to?00:46
GeoThanks KyouReeUs4nfo_00:46
pfifoEndymionM: i normally, print to pdf, ssh to my mothers box, then use 'lpr output.pdf' to print it at her house, then pick it up in my convience00:46
GeoI'll look at those in a moment00:46
EndymionMLibreOffice does a fine job of saving as PDF, certainly - I'm sure it does as well on Ubuntu as it does on XP.  But Firefox doesn't by default.00:46
Geohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/7138674/00:47
Geopfifo ^^00:47
Sector_0pfifo: but the time when the card failed I took it out and ubuntu did use the integrated one but it kept saying "running in low graphics mode" and it didn't allow me to actually use to login or anything I had to eventually fallback to console interface and disable the fglrx driver00:47
pfifoGeo: that is a 20 year old video card, it dosent support opengl 1.1 and hence cant do anything fancy. xorg's vesa drive will make it work.00:48
pfifoSector_0: that problem im not familiar with00:49
Joelis there something like xdialog that comes with ubuntu?00:49
NY6900:50
EndymionMAh, I think I just figured out my best solution to my problem; Firefox addon.00:50
pfifoEndymionM: have firefox use the pdf printer, then take the pdf to local library or print shop00:50
Geopfifo, I don't mess in this realm often- where should I start, to install that?00:50
NYsingles in nyv00:50
NYNYC???00:50
NY\DTF?00:50
EndymionMpfifo: I can print the pdf to paper from my other machine, it was creating the thing that was the issue.  'Bye.00:50
Geoheh... I'm sure he meant 'thanks' in there, too :P00:51
pfifoGeo: you dont have todo anything, it should be operating00:51
NYsup00:51
Geopfifo: I can't get a display on my screen.00:51
GeoI can do command line, but nothing GUI00:51
pfifoGeo: I dont see any other VGA adapters in your pastebin, so im a little confused here00:52
Geoand actually, I think even command line was touch and go00:52
NYill give you a nickel if you tickle my pickle00:52
Geoconfused on what?00:52
Joelahhh zenity will do it00:52
crankharderI need more creative ideas to figure out what is consuming all the space on a 94G file system.  things like... "find / -size +1000k" aren't finding whatever it is.   last time this happened I rebooted the box and it had vanished00:52
pfifoGeo: ok I see, what about on the livecd, did you get a GUI there?00:52
crankharderdf is showing this now "/dev/sda1        94G   89G     0 100% /"00:53
GeoI used the alternate installer, and did command line00:53
Sector_0pfifo: here what that error look likes00:53
Geoi couldn't use the normal live cd, the display did not work there either00:53
Sector_0http://i.imgur.com/QaP9d.png00:53
pfifoSector_0: I *think* that is unity asking if its ok to use the non-accelrated version.00:54
RasAlGhulFlash seems to work just fine in my Fedora partition00:54
RasAlGhulI don't understand00:54
RasAlGhulbut I guess I will reinstall Chrome for now00:54
pfifoGeo: does GUI work in other distro/OS Im thinking it might just be a hardware problem00:54
Sector_0pfifo: I guess you're right00:55
Sector_0but then when you select the first option here what you're greeted with...00:55
Sector_0http://i.stack.imgur.com/AiwJH.png00:55
Geopfifo: debian worked fine00:56
pfifoI need to talk to ubottu for a sec, brb00:56
pfifo!info xserver-xorg-video-r128 | Geo try installing this00:58
ubottuGeo try installing this: xserver-xorg-video-r128 (source: xserver-xorg-video-r128): X.Org X server -- ATI r128 display driver. In component main, is optional. Version 6.9.1-0ubuntu2 (saucy), package size 52 kB, installed size 171 kB00:58
dcmghe needs the legacy ATI PPA00:59
dcmgpfifo: is what I am thinking anyway00:59
pfifoSector_0: its not really unexpected that a failed video card would creat this problem, you said you had a work around. I dont know if theres a way to get it to automatically detect and correct at startup without writing some complicated scripts yourself01:00
KyouReeUs4nfo_Does anyone know a way to disable CD-drive without disabling it from BIOS?01:01
pfifoKyouReeUs4nfo_: roll you own kernel without cdrom support01:01
KyouReeUs4nfo_pfifo: let's say without recompiling a kernel, I would like to continue using current kernel01:02
dcmgactually I dont think a true minimal ubuntu install has CD support01:02
rspinuzKyouReeUs4nfo_:  You could just stop it from mounting at boot01:02
pfifodcmg: i can confirm it does01:02
dcmgif you specify no dependencies even? ok pfifo I believe you01:02
KyouReeUs4nfo_rspinuz: let's say I would like it to mount but if I insert a CD it wouldn't read it01:03
rspinuzKyouReeUs4nfo_:  What01:03
dcmgdebootstrap variant minimal might not have any cdrom software anyway. But i guess the kernel drivers are still there01:04
rspinuzKyouReeUs4nfo_:  So you want to disable it or do you want to use it?01:04
KyouReeUs4nfo_I am trying to reverse-engineer an issue actually to be honest01:04
=== S4M43L is now known as ZuluHosting
pfifodcmg: it comes with mount, umount. and the kernel has scsi cdrom, and iso9660 compiled in01:05
KyouReeUs4nfo_I want to find out the pointers where to look for if I come across issues with CD drive to troubleshoot it01:06
Sector_0pfifo: I see :(01:07
KyouReeUs4nfo_I don't clearly remember but bastile-linux had given me an option to disable it or something long ago and I did but I just don't remember what exactly it was01:07
c2tarunHi friends, can anyone please tell me a STABLE torrent client for ubuntu. I tried qbittorrent it works great for sometime and then it randomly crashes.01:07
dcmghttps://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt perhaps with a kernel boot paramters KyouReeUs4nfo_01:08
Sector_0pfifo: on that note though, is there a way to disable fglrx without removing it?01:08
KyouReeUs4nfo_dcmg: I will check thanks01:08
Sector_0all the time I've disabled it I've just removed it be cause I don't really know of any other of doing01:08
thiebaudec2tarun, you tried transmission?01:08
rspinuzKyouReeUs4nfo_:  1) Not even close to what you were asking.  B) Your question has nothing to do with ubuntu.  Please pick the correct development channel and ask there.01:09
pfifo!blacklist | Sector_001:09
ubottuSector_0: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist.conf and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u »01:09
KyouReeUs4nfo_rspinuz: will do01:10
c2tarunthiebaude, yeah, I have transmission, never tried it though, it lacks a feature of autoshutdown. Anyway its better than crashing and doing nothing. I'll try transmission.01:10
alphahawk98does any one know any conspiracy\01:11
thiebaudec2tarun, oh i c01:11
kostkonc2tarun, deluge01:11
thiebaudekttorent, but then you might not want all those kde dependencies01:11
thiebaudec2tarun,01:11
c2tarunkostkon, I am looking into deluge only, I want to check the version of deluge in repository. How can I check only version from repo and not download the application?01:12
c2tarunthiebaude, yeah, :( I used Ktorrent long time back. I really miss Ktorrent. I am seriously thinking of installing it with all dependencies01:12
Geopfifo, thanks for that. I installed it, do I need to restart or lsmod or something?01:13
pfifoc2tarun: apt-cache show <package name>01:13
kostkonc2tarun, software centre should display the version. in the terminal: apt-cache policy deluge01:13
pfifoGeo: restarting X should be all thats needed, but most users fin rebooting to be easier01:14
Geook, thanks01:14
c2tarunthanks :) pfifo, kostkon01:15
thiebaudec2tarun, there is something called qbittorrent01:15
c2tarunthiebaude, I am using it right now.01:15
thiebaudeohh,lol :)01:15
c2tarunit sometimes works great, but crashes randomly :)01:15
thiebaudethen thats no good :(01:16
c2tarunyup :(01:16
thiebaudec2tarun, how about vuze?01:16
c2tarunthiebaude, vuze, never heard about it.01:17
* c2tarun googling01:17
thiebaudec2tarun, http://www.techdrivein.com/2011/01/top-5-bit-torrent-clients-for-ubuntu.html scroll down a little01:18
c2tarunthiebaude, ohhh.. :) I remember its name azeureus :) Back when I was moving from win 98 to XP and broadband was introduced, I used it on a PC with 128 MB Ram :) It slowed my PC like hell. I am going to give it another shot in ubuntu01:20
pfifoc2tarun: java drags down ubuntu just as bad as windows, but a good multicore CPU can handle it01:21
thiebaudei ahve heard of azeureus never used it, in ubuntu it was always transmission, in windows which i use to use i used uttorrent01:21
thiebaudehave01:21
thiebaudec2tarun,01:21
c2tarunthiebaude, yeah, utorrent is awesome :|01:21
pfifoutorrent is loaded with spyware01:21
thiebaudei have tried bittorrent also01:21
c2tarunpfifo, really :O01:22
Sector_0pfifo: thank01:23
c2tarunpfifo, I thought its the lightest client ever01:23
Sector_0you were great help01:23
pfifoc2tarun: the client is great, the installer really layers on the crapware tho01:23
Sector_0guess I'll just have to keep falling back to console to blacklist the driver whenever it acts up01:24
Sector_0until I get new one that is01:24

sudormrfhey guys.  looking at installing a torrent client on ubuntu server.  the client needs to have a web ui and be rss capable.  any recommendations?01:34
sudormrfI was looking at rtorrent, but all of the guides I am finding are really old01:34
rypervenchesudormrf: deluge01:34
ksbalajiOerHeks: How to solve please?01:34
pfifosudormrf: I use transmission-daemon on my server, not sure about the rss part tho01:34
sudormrfrypervenche: rss doesn't work01:34
sudormrfnot in CLI only01:34
sudormrfyou need gui for deluge rss01:35
sudormrfpfifo: last time I tried transmission it wasn't grabbing things from my watch folder :S01:35
OerHeksksbalaji, upgrade your ubuntu to an supported version01:35
rypervenchesudormrf: It has a plugin you can use for RSS with a GUI.01:35
pfifosudormrf: ive used rtorrent in the past, but didnt like it, you might want to try it though01:35

rypervenchesudormrf: You can do it from web interface.01:36
sudormrfeverything I am finding is really old01:36
sudormrfrypervenche: it doesn't work m8.01:36
c2tarunpfifo, I am thinking about writing a script which on every 5 mins will check if qbittorrent is running or not. If it is not running then it'll start it. Do you think running this script(when required) will slow down system?01:36
sudormrfyou can't add feeds from the web ui01:37

monkwitdafunkAmigamagic. Do you wish to diffrentiate sound and display02:15
amigamagicI would be happy with another backup program too, but I haven't found nothing that does incremental backups on a NAS device with the ability to go back to previous versions of a file02:15
advx_jarkko, I m on 3.11.018-generic02:15
pfifoc2tarun: your always running the sleep command, while it dosent really take many resources, my idea literally used NO resources until the target program ended/closed... also you have no way to stop this script02:15
Ralliasamigamagic, Deja-dup/duplicity come with Ubuntu Desktop by default.02:15
advx_Linux  3.11.0-18-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 18 21:11:14 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux02:16
advx_I m re-downloading ubuntu 13.10 x86_6402:16
amigamagicRallias, yeah, and until now is the best backup app I tried, because it does incremental backups on a NAS device too02:16
OerHeksadvx_, PAE is only for 32 bit kernels02:16
advx_should I reInstall02:16
advx_ok02:16
ScaredZebraok, maybe.02:16
amigamagicI tried Back in Time, but it doesn't work well on NAS02:16
kostkonadvx_, what is your graphics card? it could be that it uses some of your ram for its own needs02:17
advx_OerHeks, y is it not showing full 4GB ram?02:17
amigamagicand I tried many other backup progs, but each one has some problem02:17
advx_O02:17
OerHeksadvx_, if your system still shows you less than 4 gb, the bottleneck is your motherboard chipset02:17
advx_no graphics card02:17
ScaredZebraOerHeks: sorry for the wrong info, thx for the correction...02:17
Ralliasamigamagic, Ok, so you're looking for one for windows or... I'm confused.02:17
advx_Hmm02:17
monkwitdafunkAmigamagic. Do you think live disk recovery is usefull02:17
amigamagicRallias, no, for Ubuntu 12.0402:17
kostkonadvx_, lspci | grep -i vga   in the terminal02:17
Ralliasamigamagic, Ok... deja-dup is packaged for ubuntu 12.04 I thought.02:18
c2tarunpfifo, but in your idea I have to touch a .run file whenever I want to start the script02:18
bessHI I am trying to install ubuntu gnome 13.10 but the installer crashes when I hit the custom partition install02:18
advx_kostkon, 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation ValleyView Gen7 (rev 0c)02:18
jarkkobess: i think its known issue02:18
pfifoc2tarun: no, the script does that for you, you delete it to get the script to end02:18
OerHeksonboard videocard-memory,cpu-cache,hdd-cache,soundcard-cache, all adds up02:18
amigamagicmonkwitdafunk, I would be fine with a clonezilla too, but I don't want to power off the PC to make a backup02:18
jarkkobess: happened to me too before02:18
ScaredZebraalmost done with the 12.04.4 d/l gotta go02:18
bessjarkko: any way to install it ?02:18
jarkkobess: just try again02:19
ScaredZebragonna burn it and update my servers02:19
amigamagicand I want incremental backup02:19
ScaredZebrabye02:19
pfifoc2tarun: and you really dont need that part, while [ "1" == "1" ] would be ok too02:19
bessjarkko: lol, trying for the third time :(02:19
ScaredZebrasorry for all the help i didn't give02:19
ScaredZebraXD02:19
monkwitdafunkI have not used clonezilla for your example. Sorry02:19
jarkkobess: autodisk allocation might work02:19
advx_So ppl, do u think its MB issue, or do I need to re-install02:19
c2tarunpfifo, okay, I agree with my "while" stupidity,  but you are also using sleep 10s so how is your sleep 10s is better than my sleep 5m?02:19
Ralliasamigamagic, I'm not infront of a machine that I can boot a 12.04 VM on, but try apt-cache search deja-dup. It should show up.02:19
advx_ne app for viewing graphics card ram02:19
amigamagicmonkwitdafunk, so what you mean02:20
amigamagicRallias, I use currently deja-dup02:20
kostkonadvx_, it's not an issue. intel systems do that, share some of the ram with the grapgics card02:20
jarkkoadvx_: i have 8gb ram and it shows 7.7 system monitor...i think you have no reason to worry02:20
bessjarkko: there is no option in the instsaller for that02:20
amigamagicbut the problem is that it shows those annoying notifications when the backup is finished02:20
pfifoc2tarun: my sleep is simply a 3 second pause to allow the target program to cleanup, it can be ommited as well wich will make the target program restart right away02:20
advx_thanks02:20
jarkkobess: the autoistalll, use all diskspace for install?02:20
kostkonadvx_, usually you can set the amount of shared ram that your graphics card can use in the bios. go check it out if you want02:21
advx_kostkon jarkka02:21
amigamagicand being that I scheduled the backup to start every minute, it's very annoying to see a notification every minute02:21
advx_ok02:21
advx_will check BIOS, btw its EFI02:21
advx_UEFI02:21
c2tarunpfifo, but while will continuosly be checking for existence of .run file, don't you think it'll take some resource of processor?02:21
pfifoc2tarun: my script is better because the restart is triggered by the target crashing, as opposed to being triggered by a check to see if the program crashed02:21
bessjarkko: I got Upgrade from 12.04, erase 12.04 and re-install, erase everything and re-install or something else02:21
jarkkoamigamagic: what are you constantly backing up?02:21
c2tarunpfifo, but while will continuosly be checking for existence of .run file, don't you think it'll take some resource of processor?02:21
advx_will Live disk to any other linux and check also02:22
Ralliasamigamagic, Deja-dup is based on duplicity at it's core. You could attach duplicity to the user crontab and use that instead.02:22
jarkkobess: can you upgrade from commandline?02:22
pfifoc2tarun: it dosent continusoly check for .run, it only loops when the target program crashes02:22
advx_btw Y does my system monitor does not have system tab02:22
c2tarunpfifo, ohhh. so you suggesting that I should also ommit & and let it loop as soon as program crashes :) nice02:22
bessjarkko: I was looking for the alternative install (CLI mode) but there wasn't any for gnome02:22
monkwitdafunkWhich system monitor02:23
amigamagicRallias, I would be glad to make that but I don't know how to do...02:23
ice9how to get the amount of the vram?02:23
pfifoc2tarun: yeah, you got it now02:23
jarkkobess: just upgrade your sourcelist?02:23
c2tarunpfifo, I really liked the idea of controlling script by deleting a file. I am going to gym now, will comeback and implement your logic. Thanks :)02:23
jarkkobess: maybe using alternative desktop for that....02:23
bessjarkko: I wanted a fresh install with gnome, now I have to go with unity :(02:24
OerHeksgrep -i --color memory /var/log/Xorg.0.log02:24
jarkkobess:  if you have working system it would be wise to do 2 different image installerss02:24
amigamagicjarkko, I'm backupping a folder where I would have many versions of the same file02:24
amigamagicso that I could go back to a previous version, if necessary02:25
kostkonbess, there is ubuntu-gnome02:25
Ralliasamigamagic, Unfortunately, I'm not sober enough to help with shell scripting... CTRL+F SomeLongGeneratedHardToCrackKey on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto should make it relatively clear on how to do though.02:25
bessjarkko: I belive there is a problem with the image02:25
besskostkon: Ye Just went there02:25
bessthanks02:25
jarkkobess: why do you believe so?02:26
jarkkobess:  i had that similar issue too when trying to install kubuntu..i quess it was 13.1002:26
RalliasIt's even got a couple scripts to do the job for you, but you've got to modify them to your personal needs.02:26
bessjarkko: I downloaded the image 2 times, one time via torrent the other from direct tried 2 different usb-sticks, I get the same result02:26
jarkkobess: its gone even worse, last time i tried to install manjaro and kubuntu, they would boot into blank screen...02:27
amigamagicRallias, I'm not used to shell scripting, but thanks for the link02:27
jarkkobess:  try linuxmint?02:27
bessjarkko: dunno if they have a gnome version02:28
amigamagicit would be nice if I could see what deja dup does with duplicity, so that I could duplicate its command and schedule directly it.02:28
amigamagicbut... Is it possible that Deja Dup it's the only GUI for duplicity??02:29

amigamagicwhy unity has a vertical bar on the left, when widescreen lcd monitors have much more space in horizontal?02:32
awesomess3terminals are better because you can change the font size.02:33
willwhI don't see why you don't just fullscreen a term?02:33
amigamagicand why you cannot move the damned bar?02:33
willwhamigamagic: because it's unity02:33
pfifowillwh: thats the work around thus far02:33
akiva-mobileamigamagic, because vertical space is more important on widescreens.02:33
willwhubuntu is the only distro using it, because it was created for it02:33
akiva-mobileamigamagic, and you can hide it if you go to settings.02:34
amigamagicthe question was why I cannot move in the bottom part of the screen, being that I could show much more icons in the bottom part of a widescreen monitor02:34
akiva-mobileamigamagic, You can. Branch it and do it yourself02:35
amigamagicakiva-mobile, I have a much more simple solution: gnome-session-fallback02:35
amigamagic:D02:35
akiva-mobileamigamagic, then you lose the power of the hud02:35
amigamagicthe power? mmmh...02:36

willwhI think it's a familiarity thing02:39
amigamagicI tried Kubuntu 13.1002:39

akiva-mobileamigamagic, and using what language?02:42
willwhI've been looking at kivy02:42
advx_what area of compiz can we fine tune?02:42
amigamagicI'm using godot engine02:42
willwhas I know python quite well02:42
akiva-mobileadvx_, you are looking to lessen the memory footprint?02:43
chroIs ubuntu the distro with more bugs? 107056 Open bugs02:44
amigamagicakiva-mobile, I don't have the time to make mods to unity... I have to develop my 2D platform-game. But I could share some ideas.02:44
akiva-mobilechro,  pardon?02:44
akiva-mobileamigamagic, maybe you should make a launchpad account, and join the ubuntu unity 8 team02:45
chroakiva-mobile: ubuntu is too buggy02:45
akiva-mobilechro, how so? I find it really stable.02:45
willwhchro: that's a silly assessment02:45
willwhit's probably the most active community of all distros02:45
akiva-mobilechro, do you need some help with something?02:45
willwhand therefore probably has the most bugs filed02:45
chrono, but I have reported some bugs02:45
chrobut they don't get fixed02:45
willwh....and?02:45
advx_akiva-mobile, yep02:45
willwhchro: did you provide a patch?02:46
pfifochro: ubuntu itself dosent have too many bugs, debian took care of most of the distro for us02:46
willwhcan you link your bug reports?02:46
willwh"waah no one fixed my bugs"02:46
akiva-mobileadvx_, Well first my pragmatic solution is just to buy more ram, as it is cheap and the amount of time you will spend configging is not worth it02:46
akiva-mobilethan if you went and instead just did a few hours overtime02:46
akiva-mobileadvx_, but if you are really determined, you might want to look into the window decorator first02:47
advx_ok02:47
advx_hmm02:47
chroI can tell you one. When I see something on full screen, and then escape, I cannot see the ubuntu launch bar anymore, neither the top bar02:47
advx_ok will do02:47
akiva-mobileadvx_, but by playing around in compiz, you are risking stability02:47
willwhchro: that is not a bug report02:47
akiva-mobileespecially with window managers.02:47
advx_thanks for Info02:47
willwhthat is a poor description of a vague problem02:47
akiva-mobilechro, what distro are you running?02:48
advx_basically I m running ubuntu 13.10 on INTEL NUC DN2820, 4GB RAM - for XBMC02:48
chrowillwh: lots of users are having the same problem. Actually it was not me that reported that02:48
amigamagicakiva-mobile, my ideas for unity are simple: the user should be able to move that bar anywhere: left, right, bottom, top.02:48
willwhchro: yep, I asked for a bug report02:48
kostkonchro, show us the bug report02:48
JCM83Is there any equivalent of Windows' "Flux" program, in Ubuntu? It seems to be a chron job to cyclically adjust monitor color and brightness to be more appropriate for the time of day. I know that I could do this myself but I'd rather just have the thing.02:48
advx_akiva-mobile, basically I m running ubuntu 13.10 on INTEL NUC DN2820, 4GB RAM - for XBMC02:48
chrothe thing is that this was reported last year, and they haven't fixed it yet02:48

willwhidk, I have 8gb, reported as 7.802:52
akiva-mobilebecause we are dealing with 8 byte02:52

akiva-mobiletype free -m in a terminal02:52
akiva-mobile3653  is my total for a 4 gig system02:53
advx_JCM83, well its just I m not able to trace where that .7GB ram is02:53

akiva-mobilechro, you said 13.1002:57
essarderp!02:57
akiva-mobilechro, those have a 6 month support cycle.02:57
advx_akiva-mobile, free -m gives total of 340902:57
akiva-mobilechro, the lts's have a multi year02:57

akiva-mobileadvx_, okay sec02:57
akiva-mobileadvx_, yah for me I have 365302:58
chroakiva-mobile: I know. But the 6month support cycle is the normal release... It should not be for testing02:58
akiva-mobileadvx_, so its not really that abnormal.02:58
advx_akiva-mobile, N e idea where our 700MB ram is??02:58
advx_ok02:58
pfifoadvx_: my 2GB laptop reports 1729 in free -m02:58
akiva-mobileadvx_, its not like that.02:58
ice9how to get the wifi card firmware from the running system?02:58
advx_pfifo, hmm who is using rest of the ram02:58
akiva-mobileadvx_, because the way that the hardware manufacturers count is strange02:58
advx_akiva-mobile, what H/W r u on ?02:59
akiva-mobileadvx_, because remember that a byte is base 802:59
pfifoadvx_: that 700MB of ram is getting lost in the math02:59
akiva-mobileadvx_, thinkpad x23002:59
akiva-mobilepfifo, ^ exactly02:59
advx_hmm02:59
advx_may be, that thought came across my mind too03:00
akiva-mobileadvx_, like sometimes, 8 bits constitutes 1 byte, instead of what is more intuitive, that 10 bits = 1 byte03:00
akiva-mobilewell not sometimes, I just mean in how they count03:00
advx_well did all that in my Engg. days..03:00
advx_may b its used up by graphics...03:00
akiva-mobileso if someone said you have 4 bytes, it will only read up as 32 bits03:01
kostkonadvx_, normally it would show 3.7, but as i said, probably the rest is used by your graphics card03:01
akiva-mobileadvx_, make sense?03:01
advx_n e way to specifically see how much is dedicated to graphics03:01
akiva-mobileadvx_, that is true too03:01
advx_on MB i have set 512MB for graphics..03:01
advx_may b thats y03:01
akiva-mobilechro, sorry getting back to you03:02
advx_Also I m having low voltage RAM 1.3volts only03:02
akiva-mobilechro, its not a testing platform in the way an alpha or beta is03:02
essarcool, turns out the odd combination of "urxvt has transparency enabled" and "$TERM is not set to the right thing" makes my home key not work; all is well03:02
akiva-mobilebut it still is testing new technologies to help them mature for stable releases.03:02
akiva-mobilethis is why mir is coming in 14.1003:02
chrook03:02
chrowhat is mir?03:03
akiva-mobilechro, its the replacement for x1103:03
chrooh yes, I heard about it03:03
akiva-mobilechro, a really important piece of software, long overdue03:03
akiva-mobileyah, wayland being its counterpart03:03
pfifoadvx_: you have too look at the gb or GB, gb means 1000000000 bytes, GB means 1073741824 bytes03:04
akiva-mobileits specifically tailor made for the unity experience.03:04
advx_pfifo, will we r all looking for GB03:05
pfifoadvx_: so hence, your chips manufacturer can omit 73741824 flipflops from the chip, and still get away with saying it is a 1 gig chip03:05
akiva-mobilechro, but anyways, if you found a bug, that is actually really important that you report it if it hasnt been done already to the unity team03:05
chroakiva-mobile: do you work for canonical?03:05
akiva-mobilechro, no03:05
advx_hmm pfifo all marketing gimmic03:05

akiva-mobilechro, this upcoming lts is extremely important that we make sure its stable03:05
kostkonadvx_, same with hard disks03:06
advx_so True, kostkon03:06
akiva-mobilechro, do you know where to report bugs?03:06
chrook, would it be easy to convert my system to a lts release?03:06

akiva-mobile14.04 will be coming out in a few weeks03:06

akiva-mobileamigamagic, few weeks03:07
cfhowlett!lts|amigamagic,03:07
ubottuamigamagic,: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04)03:07
amigamagicI'm now on 12.04 LTS03:07
pfifoadvx_: actually its not a marketing gimmick, its manufacturing process, when the die is laid out for the chip, it might not be feasable to put exacly X amount of semiconductors on it, but calling it a 1gig chip is more intutivae than calling it a 0.854374 chip03:07
amigamagicbut there are some things that don't work for my motherboard, like the suspend option that is missing03:08
akiva-mobilepfifo, what? Of course its a marketing gimmick :P03:08
pfifook its a marketing gimmick03:08

akurilinOk I'll check these options out03:40
ra4kingadding something hosts.allow will disallow everybody else03:40
kostkonakurilin, you general purposes there is also this app https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/allvideodownloader/03:41
akiva-mobileakurilin, yep, and once you have youtube-dl, test it out by doing this "youtube-dl urlofthevideo"03:41
ShutterBCra4king, you want to configure certificate based auth, essentially.  looking up sshd_config and certificate based authentication should help03:41
kostkonfor/you*03:41
akiva-mobileakurilin, if it works you can explore the numerous options of youtube-dl after.03:41

ra4kinghow is this ^^?03:42
ShutterBCra4king, pretty good.  I'd definitely run local console while testing this obviously03:43
ra4kingShutterBC: local console?03:43
ShutterBCyeah just in case you accidentally deny all ssh connections03:44
ra4kingoh yeah :D03:44
ShutterBCI've remotely configured ssh on servers before and prayed I didn't make a mistake :)03:44

dcmgShutterBC: exactly, "cruched" is the default name of the bainry ``crunchgen'' spits out03:54
dcmg"crunched" *03:55
dcmgShutterBC: generally a system uses a series of links going to it. in place of a normal set of utilities03:55

jbates58@rspinuz. sorry mate. just wasnt sure if it was seen,04:14
jbates58hi all. i am looking to setup a spare machine i have as a ubuntu firewall/router for my home network. my plan is to use it like so. have the ubuntu machine as a centra backup location where all of our computer data syncs to, run my download clients on it and use it to stream media to the house (if possible). but i also want it to be able to limit both the quota and speed of data to the download04:14
jbates58clients running on the same machine. is this possible? am i able to make a virtual network adaptor, and have the downloader use that, and then limit that ip? or does it not work like that? i am interested in learning how this all works and providing an extra layer of security to my network. not that it has ever been broken into, its only a home connection.04:14
slyrusgrumble... trying to upgrade to trusty tahr and I get "could not calculate the upgrade". I'm guessing this is because I have a locally built and installed kernel. and I purged the 13.10 kernels. is there an easy way to restore them?04:15
Flannelslyrus: You should ask in #ubuntu+1, there could be some issue with the upgrade right now.04:15
slyrusthanks flannel04:16
cfhowlettslyrus, I believe sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will pull the latest standard kernel04:16

GeekAdminI use a dedicated server for hosting my site via ssh running 3.11.0-12-generic. WHat  are your best recommendation to create automatic backups to another server (via scp of sftp or something.)?  I understand how to use cron and basic bash.05:10
akiva-mobileor bios refreshes? I mean what I think you need to do, is try it with xp, see if it still works05:11
akiva-mobileand if it doesnt then we know its an ubuntu issue05:11
rspinuzGeekAdmin: rsync over ssh05:11
GeekAdminALso  I usually just script up my local backup of site folder...what do you guys do?05:11
rspinuzGeekAdmin: rsync with ssh (sorry)05:11
lotuspsychjeakiva-mobile: xp works fine on the wifi, maybe its some weird software managing wifi for windows only?05:11
akiva-mobilelotuspsychje, but you havnt tried it since ubuntu05:11
rspinuzGeekAdmin: I do the same as you05:11
GeekAdminrspinuz ok I need to learn rsync.  You are 3rd person to recommend.  It has to be the best05:12
akiva-mobilelotuspsychje, like you may have experienced a hardware failure between now and then.05:12
GeekAdminrsync have encryption like scp?05:12
KyouReeUs4nfo_rspinuz:http://pastebin.com/6cCznmrW05:12
lotuspsychjeakiva-mobile: i dont think so mate05:12
rspinuzGeekAdmin: It keeps your files synced and only backups the new or modified files05:12
rspinuzGeekAdmin: yes that is why I said with ssh05:12
rspinuzit will use scp05:13
akiva-mobilelotuspsychje, well, if multiple kernels are not working,05:13
lotuspsychjeakiva-mobile: rfkill list shows also its softblocked and i cant get it unblocked05:13
akiva-mobilelotuspsychje, wow interesting05:13

KyouReeUs4nfo_rspinuz: much appreciated05:13
rspinuzKyouReeUs4nfo_: No problem05:14
GeekAdminrspinuz: umm so rsync fior remote backup that is like a mirror....?05:14
lotuspsychjeakiva-mobile: sudo rfkill unblock all, does nothing05:14
akiva-mobilelotuspsychje, may be worth looking at sys logs;05:14
rspinuzGeekAdmin: No05:14
GeekAdminrspinuz: This is a small site with only text changing on regular basis.05:14
GeekAdminrspinuz I like having backups liek weekly or daily05:15
rspinuzthen it will always be working05:15
GeekAdminrspinuz: for at least 6 months05:15
GeekAdminrspinuz hut this is a dedictated server. and I shouldnt have to instal  cpanel or something should I? cuz thats lame05:15
rspinuzGeekAdmin: Just to do backups?05:15
lotuspsychjeakiva-mobile: syslogs give me that ipv6 adr wifi drop warning05:16

irrodeusHello everyone, I need help on GRUB configuration, anyone might help ? The problem is : whent the computer starts, GRUB does ALWAYS launch its shell instead of showing differents choices of OS, which are correctly detected by grub-mkconfig.05:44
akiva-mobileirrodeus, which distro are you running05:45
akiva-mobileand when did you install it?05:45
irrodeusakiva : less than a week ago, elementaryOS (build on ubuntu). It's in dualboot with the pre-installed W8.05:46
akiva-mobileirrodeus, hmmmm05:46
rwwelementary OS issues go in #elementary, not here. You're probably looking for something in /etc/default/grub followed by sudo update-grub to apply changes.05:46
akiva-mobileirrodeus, ^05:46
CeninantIt's a grub issue, not on elementary one. :-)05:47
irrodeusrww : i posted in #elementary but i thought of going here as it is a GRUB problem, not elementary.05:47
irrodeusCeninant : :)05:47
akiva-mobileCeninant, distros handle grubs diferently at install05:47
akiva-mobileirrodeus, why elementry os specifically?05:47
rwwCeninant, irrodeus: doesn't matter. Our derivatives make changes to their software, and we have no way of keeping up with every change by every distro to know that they didn't change e.g. GRUB configuration.05:47
irrodeusakiva : i reinstalled GRUB multiple times with boot-repair, BTW. eOS was just a matter of interface, this is going for a non-tecchy friend of mine.05:48
akiva-mobileirrodeus,^ and maybe you might want to consider just installing ubuntu instead; Its grub configurations are extremely stable05:48
akiva-mobileirrodeus, yah if he is non techy, you would be better off giving him ubuntu imo.05:49
akiva-mobileirrodeus, and boot-repair; i have never had much luck with that.05:49
irrodeusakiva : would installing GRUB from the ubuntu liveCD, and not eOS live CD, change anything you think ?05:49
akiva-mobileirrodeus, anyways this is not the channel for it, but my own pragmatic advice is that I always save time just doing a reinstall. Grub configuration is a rabbithole of sorts.05:50
irrodeusakiva : me neither. Actually it just screwed the windows boot option from the EFI.05:50
akiva-mobileirrodeus, yah I think it would change something. If it does not, then you can get a lot of support in #ubuntu :)05:50
irrodeusakiva : i spent two hours and finally had to manually type the UUIDs of partitions on my first archlinux isntall. GRUB can be a so big pain sometimes...05:51
akiva-mobilebut in so long as its an elementry os issue, mmmmm :) politely try #grub or #elementary05:51
irrodeusakiva : okay, thanks :) I'll take a try on Ubuntu this time.05:51
akiva-mobileirrodeus, yep lol. I feel your pain05:51
akiva-mobileirrodeus, good luck!05:51
irrodeusakiva : and secondary, i also needed help on the touchscreen not being tactile at all...05:52
akiva-mobileirrodeus, when it was the old grub, it used to be a lot easier to mess around with. Since grub2 (?) - I gave up trying to manually configure.05:52
irrodeusThe proprietary driver tool found nothing; i found no driver either on internet.05:53
akiva-mobileirrodeus, on elementry os? If it was on ubuntu, that would be something we would definitely want to look in for the sake of unity05:53
akiva-mobile!autocomplete05:53
ubottuYou can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.05:53
irrodeusakiva : here only the UEFI + the need to keep a dualboot makes this a pain... otherwise it would be much simpler05:53
irrodeusakiva : yup. But even, it isn't recognized even by linux, this is a driver problem05:54
akiva-mobileirrodeus, ha ha, yah, I finally told my family members that if they want to run windows, I won't help them solve their problems. Ubuntu or bust.05:54
akiva-mobileMost just changed to ubuntu and decided libreoffice was good enough05:55
akiva-mobileirrodeus, hmmm id be surprised if there was not some project to get a open sauce driver implimented for the kernel, but I don't know.05:56
irrodeusakiva : there are, but it seems to be an hours-long process to get it working, and it'll just produce an unstable system in the end i think..05:57
* cfhowlett thinks mmmmmmm. open sauce!05:57
akiva-mobileirrodeus, are you a developer, or wanting to get into it?05:58
akiva-mobileirrodeus, you could help write the driver05:58
irrodeusakiva : i could only provide the info and tests on a specific device. I'm a bit into programming but still needs to learn much more. However, i would love to help, where should i go for this ?06:00
subscopehi all06:00
irrodeushi subscope06:01
arc12Hi. I try to tune into libreplant livestream but I get this error "No video with supported format or MIME type found. I get the same error for all 3 rooms' live stream. Please help?06:02
akiva-mobileirrodeus, great question. I am a self taught programmer, and I can tell you that the first step is a bit of a hurdle, but getting over that, it tends to be smooth sailing06:02
akiva-mobileirrodeus, and its a lot of fun.06:03
akiva-mobileirrodeus, for ubuntu, learning qt is a great start06:03
akiva-mobilebecause that gets you into gui development, you learn a bit of c++ (Which if you can learn that, you can learn anything)06:04
akiva-mobilesoe, I recomend to grab the ubuntu sdk from the software centre,06:04
irrodeusakiva-mobile: I did got into C and Python, currently studying programming but i'll shift to another school, as my actual learning program is shitty as hell06:05
akiva-mobileirrodeus, ah very nice!06:05
akiva-mobileirrodeus, what ide's are you using?06:05
ryckHi. What does a red session menu means?06:05
ryckNormally it's white.06:05
akiva-mobileirrodeus, I really like geany for python development.06:05
akiva-mobileor really general purpose.06:06
akiva-mobileand qtcreator for c, c++, and qt06:06
irrodeusakiva-mobile: code::blocks for C (haven't touched it for a while though, don't like it so much but runs good) and pycharm community for python.06:06
akiva-mobileirrodeus, mmm yah, codeblocks is... codeblocks :P06:06
irrodeusakiva : But i got into python recently and haven't test that one yet, so i'll give it a ride :)06:07
akiva-mobileirrodeus, if you want to join me and another fellow, we are currently doing the python challenge06:07
akiva-mobilecollaboratively06:07
irrodeusakiva-mobile: http://www.pythonchallenge.com/ ?06:07
akiva-mobileirrodeus, yep06:07
akiva-mobileirrodeus, the reason I like geany and qtcreator predominantly is that it works well with ubuntu's hud06:08
irrodeusakiva-mobile: I'll be hardly free before the end of the month but it would be a joy06:08
irrodeusakiva-mobile: for everyday use i'm on ArchLinux.06:08
akiva-mobileirrodeus, many ubuntu users never learn to use the hud, but it drastically increases your workflow06:08
akiva-mobileirrodeus, I know arch linux users love their distro, and for good reason, but I really suggest people try unity for programming development06:09
irrodeusakiva-mobile: maybe we should take this conversation elsewhere, or we're going to flood the chat a bit x)06:09
akiva-mobileirrodeus, good idea06:09

Bluewolfcfhowlett: In fact I wanted to ask, I have reinstalled my computer completely with Windows without a problem and Linux Mint runs well off the CD. That being said could my Ubuntu Live CD be faulty?07:07
cfhowlettBluewolf, could be.  checksum the USB07:08

Bluewolfcfhowlett: Is that how I could check the CD to make sure it is indeed the problem before I burn another?07:10
bokunocfhowlett: Ok. Thanks.07:10
cfhowlettBluewolf, first check your source ISO.  checking the burned cdrom is a different process.07:11
cfhowlettBluewolf, same page: check the CD instructions07:11
Bluewolfcfhowlett: The source was off the Ubuntu site, its installed a number of times before without a problem.07:12

MrPPSHey guys, quick question - I had an issue where I would get to Grub2, and try load Ubuntu, and it'd get stuck at loading ramdisk. I fixed it by chroot'ing from a love cd and then update-grub210:14
MrPPSThis worked, fixing Ubuntu, but, didn't have a windows boot option10:14

MrPPSBut Ubuntu won't boot again, getting stuck at initial ramdisk - thoughts as to how I could fix?10:15
llutzTopBloke: use rsync, not cp10:15

MrPPSSorry bekks - kinda got lost trying to repeat the initial one. Essentially, trying to figure out why updating grub through chroot causes Ubuntu to boot, but updating grub2 from within Ubuntu causes Windows to boot, but Ubuntu to freeze on ramdisk load10:28

But most sources I've read haven't been updated in almost two years. So I was wondering if anyone knew if they worked - AND if the S-video allowed raw/framegrabber mode.12:15

DureikenHi there, I would like to know if I can add a second argument to a daemon ? sudo service toto restart tata for example ? thanks12:37
ogra_Dureiken, see "man service"12:40
Dureikenogra_ ok thanks12:40
ogra_(and man initctl)12:41
ogra_(the latter might be more interesting)12:41
Dureikendo I have to define numbers of argfs ?12:41
Dureikenbecause $1 works but $2 seems not12:41
llutzDureiken: it depends on the init-script i'd guess12:42
ogra_yes12:42
ogra_you can pass KEY=VALUE ... as man initctl describes ... but indeed the upstart job needs to be able to do something with it12:42
llutzDureiken: example: /etc/init.d/ssh   has a line: ....  if [ -n "$2" ]; then SSHD_OPTS="$SSHD_OPTS $2" ....     /etc/init.d/ntp hasn't, it would ignore $212:43
ogra_llutz, /etc/init.d is unused12:44
ogra_the jobs live in /etc/init/12:44
llutzogra_: service is a sysV-init tools12:44
llutztool*12:44
Dureikenhum12:46
ogra_service calls initctl for nearly all jobs (there are admittedly a few coming from debian in universe that still forcefully use sysvinit and the upstart compat layer)12:46
DureikenI don't understand what you say, I'm really beginner in linux12:46
ogra_butu these are really few12:46
ogra_Dureiken, post your job to a pastebin12:46

javaholiccan someone explain to me what is meant by model in the last comment in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1524287.html12:47
ogra_so you could use a global var called "ARG2", read that in your script and parse it12:48
Dureikenogra_ where do I define ARG2 ? I don't see where ARG1 is12:48
ogra_initctl toto restart ARG2=groestl12:49
ogra_and instead of:12:49
ogra_case "$2" in12:49
ogra_you use:12:49
ogra_case "$ARG2" in12:49
compdocjavaholic, its a setting in the file12:49
ogra_something like that might work12:50
javaholicwhich file?12:50
ogra_Dureiken, but i would suggest using an upstart job instead of a sysvinit script12:50
ogra_http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/ has documentation how to write one12:51
Dureikenogra_ oh :) I have to learn a lot12:51
compdocjavaholic, the settings are mentioned: "model=basic"  "model=eeepc-p901" . The file is "/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf"12:51

Dureikenogra_ I tried ARG2, doesn't work12:52
Dureikensudo service mineur restart ARG2=groestl and case "$ARG2" in12:52
ogra_Dureiken, might not work with old sysvinit12:52

LeartSHi guys. I just wanted to say that Unity is awesome. I've just found out about the Ctrl + Alt + num (numpad) shortcut, awesome. In the middle of all the hate you got because of it, I just wanted to say that I honestly think is't the best DE Shell at the moment, period.13:33
yepoo <ogra_> can you provide me with links to learn more about using isc-dhcp-server in ubuntu ?13:34
ogra_LeartS, hold donw your windows (super) keyy for a bit on an empty screen, thne Unity lists even more key kombos13:34
LeartSogra_: yes, that's how I found out that key. Most of the others I already knew (Ctrl + SUper + up is another I didn't know though)13:35
LeartSand it doesn't need to be on an empty screen btw, it works for me anywhere13:35
LeartS*everywhere13:35
ogra_yepoo, well, there should be a manpage for dhcpd.conf ... and usually debian and ubuntu packages ship README files in /usr/share/doc/<packagename>/ with some info too13:36

LeartSheyla: ubuntu desktop can do everything that ubuntu server can15:39

k1lkatana-: dont do that. he was asking to make a more specific question. we dont know what the "best" is, since its depends on your needs16:05
WalexPinkamena_D: logging is not "automatic" in the sense that everything gets logged and then you need to find where. What gets logged and how much gets logged is a choice you make.16:05
IdleOnekatana-: because you are wrong and he isn't trolling16:06
Pinkamena_Dconsistantly, the only applications I choose to run are google chrome, chromium, irssi, and gedit. Those have been the only ones I manually started up when this error is happening.16:06

Pinkamena_DI see what you mean.16:07
WalexPinkamena_D: note that you have't asked how to diagnose why your suspend fails. You have asked how to look at the logs of what happened between resume and crash.16:07
lenzeorHey there. I have a .wv and a .cue file and I want to split it up into mp3s. What's a good (preferably GUI) program for that?16:08
Pinkamena_Dthe real issue, (because finding the logs seems to be more complicated then I at first imagined) is an IBM docking station. When the laptop is run without ever using the dock, it works fine, using the dock, seems to generate the resume freeze. Do any of you know what process would be assiocated with this?16:08
Pinkamena_DI suppose if I knew which process that was I could indeed enable the log as you suggest.16:09
WalexPinkamena_D: most logs as someone else said are under '/var/log'; if you want to expand the amount of logging that's a manual operation.16:09
WalexPinkamena_D: but those under '/var/log' are only the logs for the applications that by default enabled logs, and the default level.16:09

prainworkeri am new to linux and i would like to get my wacom tablet runnig if possible16:20
Walexhvn2: which kernel did you install?16:20
prainworkeri found allready informations about  it but i dont know how to work it of16:20
hvn2Walex: custom kernel 3.10.1816:21
Walexprainworker: the Linux philosophy is either to buy supported hardware or to write your own driver for unsupported hardware... :-)16:21
hvn2Walex: installed it using dpkg16:21
Pinkamena_Dthe only drivers I have ever had to install in linux was once a video card driver. Usually every other device I used just worked.16:21
prainworkerwalex there is a pkg called  input-wacom-0.20.0 thats all i need16:21
ogra_prainworker, what doesnt work exactly ? (there is even a gui tool shipped to configure your tablet in ubuntu)16:22
clue_hi see it in settings16:22
ogra_right16:22
Walexhvn2: if you compile custom kernels, you are a very advanced system developer and you know how to sort out the Ubuntu specific aspects of your kernel build...16:23

arcimboldoHi all, since a few days, my Ubuntu saucy cannot *see* any usb disk anymore. They don't show up even in lsblk or lsusb.16:24
Walexprainworker: there is something resembling that in the 'lts-saucy' backports of the X Window packages.16:24
hvn2Walex: i did build custom kernel (same one) for arm, which went fine. But for Ubuntu x86 it's the first time16:24
k1lprainworker: which ubuntu are you running exactly?16:25
angelo_hola16:25
prainworker12.04 lts16:25
k1lprainworker: install xserver-xorg-input-wacom-lts-saucy16:26

syadnomhi all.  got a weird issue.  I'm try to install 12.04.4 on a pair of 4TB disks in raid1.  I'm in the paritioner in the installer and when I try to create a primary partition  'physical valume for RAID', I can't mark it bootable....19:29
emrahwhen i open any music there is no sound19:29
bekkssyadnom: you have to create a bootable partition (on each disk), and a RAID partition.19:30
Beldarbkfitz, See if at that post boot cursor black screen if ctrl-alt-f1 brings up a working TTY as well.19:30
syadnombekks, a non-raid?19:30
Mungeremrah, Are you using jackd & pulseaudio?19:31
HondaJerboth browser has aw snap and crashes... is it malware in ubuntu ?19:31
bekkssyadnom: Yes.19:31
syadnombekks, so partition1 /boot as ext3 bootable....but what about if that disk fails?  I was sure I had setup a raid1 for /boot before from the installer19:31

syadnombekks, did this change?  I'm seeing guides that say doing exactly what I'm trying to do from the installer19:32
emrahmaybe but sometimes ive had this trouble although i dont run this pros i think its about os19:33
Beldarbkfitz, Cool, if you need my help, type part of my nick and complete with the tab key, that informs me of your post.19:34
Mungeremrah, Assuming you are only using one sound card, you can route pulseaudio through JACK and rewire things in patchage so that system sounds bypass your recording program19:35

ceekrytemrah:  Do you know what audio suite you are running? (pulseaudio, jackd, alsa?)  If you are running alsa you should be able to type alsamixer from the command line.19:40
syadnombekks, so, looks like a known bug in the debian installer :/19:40

trismaverage: it doesn't depend, only recommends, you don't have to install it, --no-install-recommends20:32
ActionParsnipaverage: yes the bug report lets people know about it20:32
Flannelaverage: So, couple of things.  It doesn't depend on postfix, it depends on a virtual package (actually, two of them), so if you want something else, have at it.  Second, it's a recommends anyway.20:32
niteroActionParsnip, ok i'm going to go eat some food, i'll bbs20:32
ActionParsnipawlkdjla: there is a job section on the ubuntu site like any company site20:33
averageFlannel: well, in debian there's really no (in)direct dependency on postfix20:33
ActionParsnipnitero: could try the latest mainline kernel. May help but its good to test20:33
averageFlannel: and I really don't see why ubuntu should have this dependency20:33
averageFlannel: what do you suggest as an alternative ?20:33
ActionParsnipaverage: if it is deemed superfluous it will be changed20:34
Flannelaverage: Ubuntu has decided that it's default mta is postfix.  You're free to install something else if you'd like, but if you have no preference, then postfix will be installed.20:34
averagetrism: well now, do you expect people to type --no-install-pfff for each package they install ?20:34
Flannelaverage: Any one of these: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/mail-transport-agent20:34
averageFlannel: thank you20:34
averageFlannel: I would like to suggest msmtp-mta20:34
averageI think it's a very robust and flexible mta20:34
Flannelaverage: and actualy, debian does *exactly* this same thing.  Their default-mta is exim4-daemon-light and not postfix, but other than that, these are exactly the same situation.20:35
trismaverage: no, only for the packages where you don't want recommends20:35
unixresourceshy20:35
=== gbyers[Away] is now known as g_byers
averageFlannel: well, be things as they may, postfix is quite an insanely heavy-weight dependency by default and I really think it's unreasonable20:36
=== g_byers is now known as gbyers[Away]
Flannelaverage: It's only 4x the size of exim4-daemon-light, so I'm not sure that's worth arguing over.20:37
averagethis is a typical case of http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/debian_main.png20:38
averagebut really in that comic, debian, should be replaced with ubuntu20:38
averageanyway, that's my oppinion20:38
Flannelaverage: again, it's not a dependency at all, it's recommende, so *all* MTAs could be skipped.  Even if you choose not to, you can pick any MTA not just postfix, to satisfy the recommends.20:39
averageFlannel: if I read e-mail on my laptop with mutt, would I want to install postfix ? no, I would not. That is my point20:39
bekksaverage: the point is, postfix is not a dependency, but a recommend.20:39
=== Donskoy is now known as Mameluco
Flannelaverage: If you're just reading email, you wouldn't want any MTA, so don't install any MTA.20:40
averagebekks: yes, but as I said above, --no-install-recommends is a good option, but how many people write that whenever they install a package? not many(I know I don't)20:40
bekksaverage: By default, no recommends are installed.20:40
Flannelbekks: No, that's not true.20:40
averageFlannel: you are very pedantic, of course I also need to send e-mail. but would I need postfix to do that ? I do not think so20:41

techie123OerHeks can you read me?21:19

ActionParsnipRubas: if you have the dpace on dropbox, why not...21:20
techie123I am using xchat on the linux environment but would accept advise from others with better irc clients21:20
celrocRubas: It can be.  Dropbox is a great way to back stuff up and keep it synced on a bunch of computers21:20
ActionParsniptechie123: there is no better, or best. There is just what you like..21:21
bekksRubas: Having files in those directories containing personal data like passwords, etc. - you might dont want to put them on dropbox21:21
techie123ActionParsnip you make a lot of sense!21:21

ikoniatechie123: any21:28
k1l!lts | techie12321:28
ubottutechie123: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04)21:28
ActionParsnipnitero: what is the output of: uname -a21:28
niteroActionParsnip,  i just wanted to express that concern to you, i don't know if it is or not, if you think it is or still think it'd be likely to help just let me know =)21:28
celroctechie123: Do you mean which release (13.04, 13.10, e t cetera) or do you mean the Desktop Environment (Kubuntu, Lubuntu, et cetera)?21:28
techie123ikonia, I know I had used the 12. something and had sound issues.... I also believe there is the 13.10 any comments21:29
bekkscelroc: 13.04 is EOL already.21:29
ActionParsnipsydney: there are apps for it too, ivd just do it that way21:29
techie123yes celroc21:29
celrocbekks: Oh.  Thanks, sorry, was just trying to give an example.21:29
ikoniatechie123: there should be no problem with any - as virtual platform is just virtual hardware21:29

techie123ikonia which release you using?21:30
celroctechie123: Generally the LTS release is supposed to be more stable, so basically any Ubuntu of 12.04 might be best... although the newer versions usually are still pretty stable, too, so I think you could also try 13.10 if you want.21:30
niteroActionParsnip,  and i'll brb 2 mins.....21:30

rypervencheGuest12234: You should have the Auth lines inside of your Directory directive, and the password line should be in your .htpasswd file. I would also create it using htpasswd, so that it creates an APR1 hash.22:06

Lex_anybody know why my Win7 isn't booting regularly?22:07
rypervencheGuest12234: So move the .htpasswd file outside of the public_html directory for security reasons. Can you paste what is in each of them, so we can tell exactly which file has what?22:07
niteroand... why does sudo apt-get install hexchat return "no package found"22:08

Guest12234rypervenche http://pastebin.com/nmP89kNF22:08
celrocLex_: What is it doing differently?22:08
usr13lickalott: It may be that you need another printer.22:08
usr13lickalott: (different printer)22:08
rypervencheGuest12234: So the .htaccess file needs to have the Auth lines, or you can put it in your sites-available file, which would be better. The .htpasswd file needs to have the line with "test:password"22:09
usr13lickalott: (If Cannon does not supply drivers for it, there's not much you can do.)22:09

Guest12234rypervenche where should i put the auth line un site-avaliable?22:10
usr13Lex_: How could it be only 50% of the time?  (It's my experince that an OS either boots or doesn't.)22:10
amigamagicbut if I run it from a cron job, deja-dup starts and it appear to make the backup, but after that I check the backup folder and I don't find no new file22:10

BFrankscan anyone help me restore /var/log/apache2 (ubuntu server 12.04.4 lts) default group/owner/rwx ? .. I was trying to find something that would let PHP take a read of /var/log/apache2/access.log and it looks like apache cannot write to error.log? It still writes to access.log but it's probably got an open file handle?22:12

Lex_usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7136999/22:13
Lex_usr13: maybe something to do with UEFI or 'fast boot'?22:13
celrocLex_: I was going to recommend running the command to make grub rebuild its menu entries when you boot, but now that I think about it, I guess that might just put us right back where we started.  Sorry about that, hopefully someone else has a good solution22:14
mnsiurhello22:14
usr13Lex_: Oh yea, UEFI. You might want to try legacy boot.22:14
Lex_celroc: in general though, would you deem it a better idea to manually install Ubuntu and not choose to install it 'alongside' Win7?22:15
Lex_usr13: are there any disadvantages of a legacy boot compared to a regular one?22:15
mnsiurhello22:16
clue_hLex_, legacy might help on a new machine if you have trouble with uefi locks22:16
Lex_would there be any significant difference between installing it 'alongside' Win7 and installing it manually?22:17
celrocLex_: I'm not really sure.  I like manual because it lets me customize my partitions and things like that... but since Ubuntu is supposed to be really user-friendly, the "alongside" option should work pretty well22:17
Lex_also, does the 'alongside' option use free space outside of the windows partition, or does it use free space ON the Win7 partition?22:17
mnsiurdoes anyone know how to reamove desktop from ubuntu 13...22:18
niteropretty sure 'alongside' lets you customize partitions too22:18
celrocLex_: It should use free space outside of the partition, I believe22:18
celrocnitero: Oh, cool, thanks.  I haven't done it in a while, so I wasn't sure.22:18
Lex_basically, do I need to manually create free space or would Ubuntu recognise the free space on the Win7 partition and create its own from there?22:18
usr13Lex_: line 644 is most interesting22:18
niteroLex_,  it creates a new partition, using unused space, it doesn't overwrite anything22:18
k1lmnsiur: remove the ubuntu-desktop package22:18
mnsiurk1l: thanks22:19
niteroLex_,  the latter22:19
Lex_nitero: thanks22:19
Lex_usr13: oh yes?22:19
ActionParsnipK1l: all that will do is remove the metapackage. It doesnt remove the contents.22:20
ActionParsnipmnsiur: if you remove xorg, the GUI apps will fail deps and be marked for removal.22:20
BeldarLex_, Windows has two partitions sda1 the boot and sda2 C, sda2 has all the boot files needed, however the boot flag is on sda1, grub just see both. run in ubuntu sudo update-grub to make sure sda2 is read again.22:20
k1lActionParsnip: iirc the remove of that metapackage will mark the depencies as to uninstall22:22
usr13Beldar: Looks like sda1 is the UEFI partition. (Only about 1Meg.)22:22
