[00:00] <Beldar> dante123, Here is a link along the lines of TJ-'s help. http://www.paulscode.com/forum/index.php?topic=1271.0
[00:01] <dante123> okay last time I used 40_custom and added the entry there, then reran grub and upon reboot it shows up
[00:03] <TJ-> dante123: Yes, you can do 40_custom too. 41_custom avoids having to edit the system scripts themselves
[00:05] <dante123> ok
[00:08] <dante123> whats the command to rerun grub2 configuration?
[00:08] <dante123> sudo update-grub i remember now\
[00:21] <snadge> im not sure how a synaptic touchpad is supposed to behave these days.. whether emulate middle mouse button is still a thing etc
[00:22] <snadge> in any case.. I don't seem to have a middle click.. i've got a physical left and right button at the bottom of the pad.. and the pad itself clicks when you press down on it
[01:44] <blocky> I just upgraded a bunch of packages from the last few months and I can no longer login to unity... i3wm is working
[02:51] <blocky> actually just realized unity is completely missing from my DE picker
[02:51] <blocky> i3 is the only one left
[02:53] <blocky>  /usr/xsessions/gnome.desktop is still there
[02:55] <Beldar> blocky, run a reinstall the ubuntu desktop and se what the terminal says, gnome underlies unity.
[03:08] <blocky> Beldar: thanks, that sort of worked... it's back in the menu now and i can login to it, but my wallpaper loads and nothing else. no unity panel
[03:08] <blocky> heh, and an error report
[03:11] <blocky> is there a way to restart gdm from terminal? service gdm restart doesn't work anymore
[03:11] <Beldar> blocky, Do you have a proprietary graphic installed?
[03:12] <Beldar> or any heh?
[03:12] <blocky> Beldar: nope, it's a sandy bridge laptop with intel
[03:13] <blocky> i forget what it's called but i set up an app to display system performance stats overlaid on the wallpaper, similar to gkrellm, and that's working too
[03:13] <blocky> and i think redshift is working, cause the desktop has a pink hue
[03:14] <blocky> oh its not gdm, its lightdm
[03:14] <Beldar> blocky, There is a compiz unity reset for 13.10, I assume it is fine for 14.04, that would be my first try, needs a reboot generally to set. I start at the easiest first is all.
[03:16] <blocky> Beldar: trying that next
[03:19] <blocky> Beldar: no luck
[03:21] <Beldar> blocky, you reboot?
[03:21] <blocky> Beldar: yeah
[03:21] <Beldar> blocky, Hmm, not sure beyond that without guessing really, not an area I have had issues in is all.
[03:22] <blocky> Beldar: okay thanks, i can still watch netflix in i3wm
[03:23] <Beldar> the errors you had on the reinstall should give some info, I would use that to search or in inquires here. At least to rule it out, if you wanted to mess around.
[03:25] <Beldar> you could install a minimal like lxde and save the install info to purge it later if needed, just ideas, sounds like tiling wm works for you though.
[04:01] <onca_> Is there a "skype" for ubuntu?
[04:02] <onca_> how do I install it?
[04:02] <onca_> apt-cache search skype yeild only pidgin plugins
[04:02] <onca_> and empathy ones
[04:11] <`Fibz> sudo apt-get install skype
[04:11] <`Fibz> oh wait, this PC isnt running trusty
[04:13] <`Fibz> yup, just sudo apt-get install skype
[04:19] <Beldar> onca_, skype is in the canonical partners repos if in trusty, make sure it is open and your updated.
[04:20] <Beldar> It's installed here, heh I have just not used it.
[07:22] <Dudytz> hi all, hi all ... I use the Ubuntu 14.04, I have a user with the default groups (adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare) and encrypted home. Everything works well, but I have error in nautilus to mount a FAT32 partition (in another disk [sdb] or mount of usb pendrive FAT32 formatted). The error message is 'You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "[UUID OF PARTITION]"'. Can anyone helpme to identify the root caus
[07:22] <Dudytz> e?
[07:23] <Stanley00> Dudytz: do you have any setting for this partition in /etc/fstab?
[07:24] <Dudytz> no, no settings in fstab
[07:27] <Dudytz> my partition configuration is: /dev/sdb1 = boot | /dev/sdb2 = root | /dev/sda1 = home ... I have a /dev/sda2 FAT32 formmated and a /dev/sdc1 (usb pendrive) ... the sda2 and sdc1 have the error of permission
[07:29] <Dudytz> my boot and root are in the sdb because is a flash memory of 16GB .... the sda is a hard disk and sdc is assigned to the usb
[07:29] <Stanley00> Dudytz: can you open Terminal, type *mount* to see the option of the mount point of sda2 and sdc
[07:36] <Dudytz> /dev/sda2 on /media/eduardo/MULTIBOOT type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks2)
[07:37] <Dudytz> the sdc not mount and not appear in the mount list
[07:37] <Dudytz> but the error in nautilus is the same
[07:38] <Dudytz> sda2 only appears in the mount list after a try of mount in nautilus, the partition not mount and I give the permission error ... but the partition is visible in the mount list
[08:19] <Oli> What happened to Jockey? Seems it was deleted from the release a month ago... Has it been replaced with something else?
[08:21] <Oli> ubuntu-drivers-common!
[08:28] <lordievader> Good morning.
[10:16] <berg__> Challenge: Kubuntu 14.04, has anyone experience or working dual GPU (2 x AMD Radeon 290X) or similar working with second GPU also working properly? lspci finds them both, aticonfig sees them both. xorg autodetection does not find the displays in second GPU.
[10:16] <berg__> I can create simple xorg.conf which activates both GPUs and the displays attached, but infortunately it leaves errors to KDE.
[10:24] <TJ-> berg__: Check the Xorg log-file, maybe the EDIDs aren't being handled correctly. Also, see what "xrandr -q" reports
[10:25] <berg__> Reports just the displays in the "active" gpu.
[10:26] <berg__> Should xrandr --listproviders report something? Now it reports ... nothing.
[10:26] <berg__> Just Providers: number: 0
[10:27] <berg__> Still the "primary" GPU and displays work fine and with OpenGL and OpenCL. The second GPU is invisible.
[10:37] <berg__> Can I turn the my question around. In Ubuntu/Kubuntu should one rely on GPU and display autodetection or should user provide perfect xorg.conf. It affects whether I report bug to xorg/xrandr autodetection or KDE side.
[10:44] <zokiDimovski> Hi
[10:45] <zokiDimovski> anyone with Kubuntu 14.04 with akonadi/baloo problems?
[10:45] <zokiDimovski> the akonadi folder is growing and shrinking all the time. Jups up to 3.6GB then shrinks to 500MB and start all over again
[10:46] <zokiDimovski> and akonadiserver, akonadi_baloo_indexer and mysqld are working all the time and eating my CPU
[10:50] <junka> will 14.04 lts have the newest kernel 3.14?
[10:50] <k1l_> junka: no
[10:50] <k1l_> see the kernel freeze and the 3.14 release date.
[10:51] <junka> 3.14 released today while the kernel freeze is on 3rd of april
[10:53] <k1l_> ah wait, the kernel freeze is in april? but they told they will not change to 3.14 because its to near to the release of 14.04. they will backport important stuff
[10:54] <junka> well since they have a schedule why not follow it?
[10:56] <k1l_> kernel freeze means the sub-version of the kernel. not the main version of the kernel, imho
[10:56] <junka> pitty
[10:57] <k1l_> like i said: important stuff gets backported and with the enablement stack you can get a 14.10 kernel afterwards, too
[10:57] <junka> ok thanks
[11:10] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[12:40] <odium> okay, I messed up and now everything I try to install says this http://paste.ubuntu.com/7184625/ - basically I tried to install skype

[16:26] <vlad_starkov> TJ-: Hello there! :-)
[16:31] <SuperLag> Are there any apps that will let you view Visio diagrams?
[16:59] <qengho> Does anyone else's screen re-blank ~1sec after unlocking a Trusty machine that was sitting?
[17:00] <qengho> Here, pressing a key, Shift e.g., un-blanks it.
[17:31] <vlad_starkov> TJ-: Ping
[17:35] <toyotapie> is there a torrent to download 14.04 32-bit desktop daily?
[17:51] <TJ-> vlad_starkov: pong
[17:52] <vlad_starkov> TJ-: I'm here again
[18:11] <odium> I'm trying to install skype but to no avail, can anyone push me in the right direction?
[18:59] <streulma> hello, bluetooth works on 3.14 kernel which is 14.04. Should I run 13.10 for the moment without bluetooth or change to 14.04, or wait for the release?
[19:20] <HateYoFace> people still use bluetooth?
[19:34] <rohan> streulma: does 14.04 work well enough for you?
[19:41] <krux> mine works is on a testing old box with lubuntu
[19:54] <onca> I'd like to install skype, but I can't find the proper process for it. I've tried numerous times to follow skype communities efforts to explain how to do it, but no avail. I am on a freshly installed system now though.
[19:58] <jack> is there a nice visualizer for xmms2 or abraca?
[20:15] <onca> hai, could someone halp install the dependencies for this app, I get the following error when I try to install skype - http://paste.ubuntu.com/7186644/ - it says lib32asound2 and ia32-libs are not installed, but I don't know where to find them
[20:15] <onca> plz
[20:16] <onca> neither has installation candidates
[20:17] <onca> plz ignore that pastebin, I'll produce one with the errors I encountered
[20:19] <onca> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7186672/ is my error
[20:20] <onca> I think this involves something to do with ia32-libs:i386 but I am a novice
[20:22] <onca> wait, I found a tutorial
[20:22] <rww> trusty doesn't have ia32-libs, it uses multiarch instead
[20:22] <onca> okay - i understand
[20:23] <onca> I think I found a tutorial, it's processing now
[20:23] <rww> nice
[20:25] <onca> while I have your attention. I installed a sd card reader and it turns on but even with a card in it I don't know how to access it
[20:25] <rww> no idea, I just spoke up because I'm good at APT stuff :P
[20:28] <onca> hmm - I want to play with my new beagle-bone buuut I can't write to it's sd card
[20:29] <onca> you guys are awesome
[20:30] <onca> skype works
[20:30] <onca> yays
[20:31] <wolfy1339> has anyone successfully paired a surface edition arc touch mouse with the surface pro running ubuntu14.04
[21:12] <xagaba> Any workaround about cgroup-lite autoremoval in 14.04 ?
[21:18] <Artemis3> is it just me, or when you install any of the quantal or raring (kernel/xorg) upgrades into 12.04 the thing won't ever upgrade to 14.04?
[21:35] <MonkeyDust> FYI: 14.04 is still too unstable for my laptop, i switched bach to 12.04
[21:35] <MonkeyDust> back*
[22:01] <tgrego> hi
[22:02] <tgrego> can someone point me in the right direction on how to use dual graphics?
[22:02] <tgrego> i have an amd apu, and a dedicated ati card, but only seem to be able to use the integrated
[22:03] <tgrego> i can however see both devices in hardinfo...
[22:06] <tgrego> is there a way to switch to the dedicated?
[22:10] <tgrego> the hardware is a AMD A10-5750 with a HD 8650G + HD 8570M
[22:20] <Daekdroom> tgrego, if you are using the opensource drivers, you should set DRI_PRIME=1 as an env var when starting the app you'll need the dedicated for.
[22:21] <Daekdroom> I'm not sure however whether Ubuntu needs you to do some setting before you can do that.
[22:22] <tgrego> thanks, that will be a good start
[22:22] <Daekdroom> tgrego, I found this page http://xpressrazor.wordpress.com/2013/10/08/enable-and-use-open-source-radeon-drivers-in-a-muxless-hybrid-graphics-intelamd-setup/
[22:23] <Daekdroom> Mind you that when using 14.04 you can skip Step 1, as you already have the necessary drivers and kernel versions.
[22:25] <tgrego> i actually installed the proprietary drivers when it did not work with the open source ones, but the 8570M is not corrently detected in amd control center... will give a try with that open source possible fix
[22:26] <atreus_> Hello, is it worth upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04 if I dont use unity and upgrade the kernel myself?
[23:02] <darklight_> the latest kernel kinda broke the intel driver
[23:04] <darklight_> multiple applications fail with  ../../../../../../../src/mesa/drivers/dri/i965/brw_reset.c:43: brw_get_graphics_reset_status: Assertion `brw->hw_ctx != ((void *)0)' failed.
[23:05] <darklight_> happens with i915 too
