| hahuang65 | I'm trying to get ndiswrapper to recognize my Netgear A6200 wifi adapter. I've got the .inf file from the CD for the drivers and I've installed it with ndiswrapper, which says it's installed and that the device is present. Also lsusb shows the device, but it looks like in dmesg that the driver wasn't able to be loaded. | 00:10 |

| === delphi is now known as Guest19474 | ||
| Liam- | Alright. I'm having some quite large problems on my dedicated server. It wants to crash after running for a minute, (running in recovery mode, then root shell works fine) then it wants to do this: http://i.imgur.com/gvM7hd7.png | 01:02 |
| Liam- | It did it while it was running before, and made the HDD read-only | 01:02 |
| Bashing-om | Liam-: If running in recovery mode, the drives are mounted Read Only - one cn alter this, however. | 01:06 |
| Bashing-om | cn/can | 01:07 |
| Geo | What tool can I use to expand a partition to fill the remainder of the disk, without losing data? Is it possible to use fdisk? | 01:10 |
| Bashing-om | Geo: It is my understnsing that anytime a partiton is manipulaed there is always that chance of "loss of data" . | 01:16 |
| Geo | Bashing-om, chance of, sure, but there are some methods that are flat out 'this will blow away your data' | 01:23 |
| Geo | I think by deleting a partition with fdisk, you lose it all | 01:24 |
| dforthman | you can use a tool like testdisk (available on most diagnostics livecds) to recover the partition table | 01:28 |

| HappyNewYear13 | kostkon, i did that, and as i said, i know the site is up | 01:56 |
| HappyNewYear13 | it's a very simple question | 01:56 |
| IdleOne | well then your IP is probably banned. nothing we can do to help with that | 01:56 |
| HappyNewYear13 | IdleOne, but i don't get any error message | 01:56 |
| susy_ | hola | 01:56 |
| HappyNewYear13 | it just keeps looping | 01:56 |

| HappyNewYear13 | i'm using ubuntu now | 01:58 |
| HappyNewYear13 | so it's related | 01:58 |
| IdleOne | no it isn't | 01:58 |
| HappyNewYear13 | it says ubuntu 12.04 | 01:59 |
| IdleOne | it isn't a problem with ubuntu if your IP is blocked | 01:59 |
| Geo | HappyNewYear13: You're using elecricity as well, may want to ask i #electronics | 01:59 |
| HappyNewYear13 | i cant upgrade because it demands highier HW | 01:59 |
| HappyNewYear13 | Geo, that was plan B | 01:59 |
| IdleOne | HappyNewYear13: Do you have a specific Ubuntu support related question, or you just here to waste time? | 01:59 |
| HappyNewYear13 | IdleOne, why so serious? i was expecting to find a webmaster who uses an Ubuntu server | 02:00 |
| IdleOne | HappyNewYear13: because the problem you described has nothing to do with Ubuntu. If you just want to chat you can try #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:01 |

| xbr568 | here's a question. are modules somehow tied to the kernel version? i had the wl wifi module working but updated the kernel and when i do modprobe wl on the new one it can't find it, but it can on the older one | 03:05 |
| jpds | xbr568: Some are. | 03:07 |

| trevor-preston | what is the most secure and fastest browser to run on ubuntu 12.04? | 03:12 |
| trevor-preston | and what is the difference between google chrome and chromium? | 03:13 |
| k-rad | google is closed source and more secure | 03:15 |
| trevor-preston | k-rad, but I've been told that open source is more secure than closed source | 03:16 |
| k-rad | open source means that the code is available with the exception of something left back. if you can compile it from git its open source | 03:17 |
| trevor-preston | k-rad, so do people choose google chrome on linux for its security? | 03:19 |
| xbr568 | kostkon: what do you mean by dkms status? | 03:20 |
| kostkon | xbr568, that command to find out if wl has been rebuild for your latest kernel | 03:20 |
| Wug | trevor-preston: chrome and chromium are very similar and security fixes get crossported between the two. I use chromium because it's in the repo and I'm lazy | 03:22 |
| Wug | and people will fight endlessly about browsers | 03:22 |
| Wug | "what is the best browser" will basically get you nothing except religious viewpoints | 03:22 |
| Wug | that said, chrome[ium] is clearly superior to all others | 03:23 |

| kikiohime | hi | 04:46 |
| henryC | kikiohime, I can only assume, is sympathetic | 04:46 |
| henryC | nothing has changed on my system other than upgrading, but even after upgrade, it was working when I left the house six gd hours ago. | 04:48 |
| donofrio_ | henryC, you need to relax and understand things break and need attention, this is why its normally called work and not play, unless it is play and then its a hobby | 04:49 |
| kikiohime | sorry i new in here | 04:49 |
| donofrio_ | henryC, keep in context I have no idea of issue just saying | 04:49 |
| henryC | I'm sorry. It just couldn't have happened at a worse time. I googled and all I'm getting is "dummy output". I read 3 or 4 of the old articles about that to no avail. | 04:50 |
| henryC | sorry. I didn't mean to lose it but I lost it. | 04:50 |
| kikiohime | is in here , there are indonesian people ? | 04:51 |

| kikiohime | ok thx bazgang :D | 04:52 |
| donofrio_ | like that is going to help | 04:52 |
| donofrio_ | so what is issue? | 04:52 |
| donofrio_ | besides upgrade, something like checked dmesg and my sound card listed in lspci is not working | 04:52 |
| donofrio_ | someone wanna poke the +1 group and wake em up (-: | 04:53 |
| henryC | ok. I'll try to calm down. My last chance to use the card is over for today anyway. I left the house 6 hours ago and it worked. I'm a web guy. When it comes to hardware drivers, and how an ubuntu update affected those, I'm lost. | 04:55 |
| donofrio_ | ah the power of linux is you have the power | 04:56 |
| henryC | did | 04:56 |
| donofrio_ | so what did you upgrade besides something 6hrs ago | 04:56 |
| qin | !sound | henryC also pavucontrol | 04:57 |
| ubottu | henryC also pavucontrol: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

| henryC | pavucontrol says everything is fine | 04:57 |
| henryC | system settings says nothing but dummy, no soundcard | 04:57 |
| donofrio_ | soundcard how does apache use a soundcard? | 04:58 |
| henryC | I'm not using apache in any way. Even when I run webservers, I run nginx. That's neither here nor there. | 04:58 |
| qin | henryC: oh, no hardware listed. | 04:58 |
| henryC | right | 04:58 |
| qin | donofrio_: apache does not usualy | 04:58 |
| donofrio_ | my thought just leveling the context | 04:59 |
| henryC | Is it possible to find what my last "sudo apt-get upgrade" library ruined my life? | 05:00 |
| qin | henryC: would it be ok to scan logs for mentions of your card? Logs also hold info about all instals, /var/log/ | 05:00 |
| donofrio_ | henryC, lspci returns what? | 05:01 |
| henryC | donofrio_: thx, I will try this. I am letting another upgrade happen now, in blind hope. then I will check lspci | 05:02 |
| Jordan_U | henryC: /var/log/dpkg.log specifically. | 05:04 |
| henryC | which is the preferred pastebin for the lspci, and the dpkg.log? | 05:05 |

| henryC | I guess I should reboot and try to go to grub or anybody have ideas? | 05:14 |
| pancaker | will it just send public out of that file? | 05:14 |
| bazhang | pancaker, I use seahorse for that | 05:14 |
| bazhang | henryC, what version of ubuntu | 05:15 |
| henryC | bazhang: 14.04.... I've been running kubuntu 14.04 since alpha without prob. | 05:15 |
| pancaker | bazhang: im scared | 05:15 |
| bazhang | henryC, support for that is in #ubuntu+1 | 05:16 |
| henryC | bazhang: ok thanks, but so I should start over again there? | 05:16 |
| bazhang | henryC, it would be wise, others in the beta might have same/similar issues | 05:16 |
| henryC | bazhang: that is reasonable. thanks. | 05:17 |
| KyouReeUs4nfo | Is it fair to ask for a password to the individual providing support to protect the pasted text of system data by the individual asking for support? If so, https://www.pastee.org/ is worth checking out, not only it uses https but it also encrypts pasted data with a password and it provides various TTL times. | 05:18 |
| henryC | unfortunately 1523 / 197 is nearly zero... | 05:19 |
| henryC | It only took me having a minor heart attack, and spending an hour, and your kind attempts to help, to find, that the new kernel is at fault. | 05:33 |
| henryC | I dunno who best to report this atrocity to. | 05:34 |
| qin | henryC: Alpha trills. | 05:34 |
| henryC | thanks for bearing with me and sorry I was out of my head crazy but I get that way. | 05:35 |
| bazhang | np | 05:35 |
| henryC | still, I would like to make the knowledge useful so that nobody else jumps off a roof. | 05:35 |
| bazhang | file a bug then | 05:35 |
| bazhang | and keep it in the proper channel please | 05:36 |
| qin | henryC: launchpad is a place to report bugs | 05:36 |
| JCM83 | what's a good CNC controller? | 05:36 |
| henryC | any particular site to file a bug for a kubuntu pre-release? well see I'm sorry about that too. I don't know there's a specific place for kubuntu 14.04 pre-release. | 05:36 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu+1 covers them all | 05:36 |
| henryC | ok thx | 05:36 |

| HomelessSanta | ikonia, Not even one package from say 13.04 or 13.10 can be used in my version? | 07:14 |

| Gallomimia | can anyone suggest to me what is best way to get catalyst 14.3 installed on my system with ubuntu 13.10 | 07:14 |

| Gallomimia | there's a game i have that the support forums recommend them for | 07:18 |

| kostkon | HiMaX, yeah. it should | 08:11 |

| KyouReeUs4nfo | ocooel: once grub file changes were made, sudo update-grub needed to be run | 08:28 |
| ocooel | KyouReeUs4nfo: yes, booted grub and pressed "e" and nomodeset was included in the text | 08:28 |

| mzaza | Does Ubuntu perform better than Fedora, in terms of UI response? So basically the question is Unity faster than Gnome-Shell? | 08:39 |

| mzaza | Does Ubuntu perform better than Fedora, in terms of UI response? So basically the question is Unity faster than Gnome-Shell? | 08:44 |
| ocooel | KyouReeUs4nfo: they install automatically as dependencies of fglrx-updates | 08:44 |
| KyouReeUs4nfo | ocooel: I thought you removed all fglrx packages, nvm | 08:45 |
| cfhowlett | mzaza get virtualbox, install and test it yourself. | 08:45 |
| ocooel | KyouReeUs4nfo: yes so I could reboot and login with GUI | 08:45 |
| mzaza | cfhowlett: Well, I did install both and tested myself. I noticed Unity is faster in General, however when doing some hard work gnome-shell tends to perform better when opening virtual machine for example. | 08:46 |
| KyouReeUs4nfo | ocooel: so what is the current situation in terms of video driver packages, do you have them installed or not? | 08:46 |
| mzaza | cfhowlett: I was thinking for more explanation :D | 08:46 |
| cfhowlett | mzaza so then you've already answered your own question. | 08:46 |
| cfhowlett | mzaza suggest you choose the windows environment that works best for you. if you like gnome, there is the ubuntu-gnome | 08:47 |

| stemid | I just installed 13.10 and after startup I waited a few moments and the screen adjusted to 2560x1440 for my monitor. but then after a reboot it was back to 1024x768 and would not change. so I checked xrandr and added the newmode. then it worked. until I started steam and it suddenly went back, so I did addmode to my output and it came back to 2560x1440. how can I make this persistent in ubuntu? is it safe to just add it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d? | 11:01 |

| StefanHelp | I installed windows 8 on not gpt, and I installed ubuntu on ext4 with efi partition just in case | 14:53 |

| usr13 | StefanHelp: Lines 707-715 are of particular interest. | 14:54 |
| StefanHelp | usr13: yes I removed gpt | 14:55 |
| StefanHelp | while I was installing windows 8, run select disk 0 and then: clean | 14:55 |
| StefanHelp | which removed gpt from it. | 14:55 |
| usr13 | ... which is a repeat from 681-689 | 14:55 |
| StefanHelp | because I could not install windows 8 on gpt nor I could format partition to be ntfs. | 14:55 |
| StefanHelp | so what to do? | 14:56 |
| cfhowlett | StefanHelp I would bet it did NOT remove gpt. If it didn't specifically notify you of reformatting to a different format, the format remains the seame | 14:56 |

| movedx | Hello. Has anyone here successful got 12.04 LTS booting and installing, automatically, using PXE/DHCP and Preseeding? I have everything practically setup, but using 'url=http://10.1.1.2/preseed.cfg' in the boot prompt isn't triggering anything. Any advice? What could I be missing? | 17:28 |
| bekks | alfredo: Define "it" and provide the eyact details representing your specific issue please. | 17:28 |
| bekks | movedx: I setup a kickstart script yesterday :) | 17:28 |
| movedx | bekks: Kickstart would also be good. I started out with Kickstarting, but found limited assistance on some options. Do you have a copy of your KS file I can see? | 17:29 |
| alfredo | When I tried to embed a swf file in libreoffice impress under linux dont work, but when I embed a swf in libreoffice impress under windows it works great. | 17:29 |
| bekks | movedx: Sure, it's not black magic :) | 17:30 |
| movedx | bekks: Indeed. I understand the concept, but just not why the 'auto url=...' options aren't working. | 17:30 |
| alfredo | when I embed a swf file in Lo impress under linux it show a rectangular area in blue that dont work | 17:30 |
| wrongplace | huá | 17:30 |
| movedx | bekks: If I do 'ks=...' it triggers, but obviously a Preseed file isn't a KS file, so it bombs out, as expected. This verifies my networking and everything is fine. I just need this one last step hehe | 17:31 |

| superlou | IdleOne, fair enough. I've had similar symptoms on an older ubuntu 12.04 install, so figured I'd start here. | 18:49 |
| superlou | (after having forum scoured) | 18:50 |
| IdleOne | superlou: I understand, but Mint may have changed something. Similar is not equal to. | 18:50 |
| sultanselephant | the only thing they changed were the rules the GUI and some corny apps | 18:50 |

| ubuNoob | yes i did | 18:52 |
| sultanselephant | ubuNoob: are you trying to recover windows or get rid of it or what | 18:52 |
| ubuNoob | dont u like the quality? | 18:52 |
| sultanselephant | ya nice | 18:53 |
| sultanselephant | ubuNoob: youre trying to dual boot right | 18:53 |
| ubuNoob | i am trying to dual boot | 18:53 |
| ubuNoob | ubuntu will be for me and windows for my kids | 18:53 |
| sultanselephant | ubuNoob: when you say 'i did a partiton of 80 gb for ubuntu' wht exactly are you referring to, the partition manager in the install or befroe hand | 18:53 |
| ubuNoob | before hand in windows 7 "disk management" | 18:54 |
| sultanselephant | ubuNoob: im guessing you cant boot into windows anymore | 18:54 |
| sultanselephant | ? | 18:54 |
| ubuNoob | i can boot into windows i am using it right now | 18:54 |
| ubuNoob | i didnt get the "free space" as I already have 4 partitions | 18:55 |
| ubuNoob | thats why i need to delete D drive | 18:56 |
| sultanselephant | ubuNoob: that partition table is a mess | 18:56 |
| sultanselephant | dunno this stuff is messy, how bummed would you be to lose windows | 18:56 |
| ubuNoob | lose windows? | 18:57 |
| sultanselephant | shouldnt it partition it for you automatically? | 18:57 |
| dioioib | I just intalled to a second HD and used EFI boot | 18:58 |
| ubuNoob | you are not listening. Because my pc already have 4 partitions already thats why i ubuntu cant see the 5th partition i created | 18:58 |
| dioioib | oh you have 5 partitions on one drive. | 18:58 |
| tankerkiller125 | OK a little help I installed the xorg server for mouse and aiptek but now my noral mouse doesn't work how do I fix this! | 18:58 |
| sultanselephant | work with dioioib i help people on here to learn stuff myself. we're all just users like you, ubuNoob , so no need for attitude man. i know this stuff is stressful | 18:59 |
| dioioib | sultanselephant I think you miss read what I type in no way did I intend it to come off like that. I was just asking questions and offering alternatives. | 19:00 |
| sultanselephant | dioioib: ? | 19:00 |
| ubuNoob | sorry | 19:00 |
| tankerkiller125 | Can anyone help me with my mouse issue?? | 19:00 |
| sultanselephant | was just addressing ubuNoob | 19:01 |
| dioioib | oh ok. sorry. | 19:01 |
| dioioib | Yeah it can be frustrating when things go wrong that is for sure. | 19:01 |
| sultanselephant | anyway ubuNoob im not pro enough to steer you right with a partition table however i always thought that the ubuntu installer dual booted automatically | 19:01 |
| sultanselephant | honestly there are better resources than here for more tricky stuff -- like askubuntu.com or ubuntuforums.org or help.ubuntu.com etc | 19:02 |
| ubuNoob | sultanselephant alright sorry if i offended you | 19:02 |
| sultanselephant | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot for ex | 19:02 |
| sultanselephant | ubuNoob: no no some ppl just think like this chat is paid support | 19:03 |
| sultanselephant | nevermind its all good | 19:03 |
| rdz | hi all. is there a channel specific to the upcoming release 14.04? | 19:03 |
| sultanselephant | #Ubuntu+1 | 19:03 |
| rdz | sultanselephant, thanks | 19:03 |
| dioioib | you might need to go into Grub and manually set your other partitions device hooks. pointing to like /dev/sda0 - sda1, ... | 19:04 |
| xentity1x | az4z3l, it finds a shell script (which is marked as executable) but when i run it just opens in emacs | 19:04 |
| xentity1x | Hi, so I have a bit of a weird problem. I installed google hangouts for chromium, and now ubuntu seems to thing google hangouts is my default browser. When I type in chromium in the dash, it shows the chromium icon but it says hangouts underneat. I uninstalled the hangouts plugin, and now when I click on the icon in the dash nothing happens. I tried reinstalling chromium, but no luck. I can't seem to find the chromium executable anyw | 19:04 |
| xentity1x | here. Anyone know what happened? | 19:04 |
| ubuNoob | I have deleted my D drive and will try install ubuntu to see if i get the free space option | 19:04 |
| dioioib | this might help.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1014708 | 19:05 |
| === ubuNoob is now known as emily_walker | ||
| dioioib | xentity1x did you run it with ./filename or sudo ./filename | 19:06 |
| sultanselephant | xentity1x: google provides the plugin right within chromium | 19:07 |
| sultanselephant | or do y ou have to get a .deb | 19:07 |
| tankerkiller125 | Hi can anyone help me here?? I have a HP wireless mouse and it worked fine up untill I tried to get my aiptek touchpad working. When I followed the tutorial found here:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AiptekTablet it stopped working but now the aiptek does work. However I would like my mouse to work as well so that I can perform normal task on it. | 19:08 |
| xentity1x | dioiob, ok i got it to run with ./chromium-browser | 19:08 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 can you post you xorg.conf file to paste bin for me | 19:08 |
| dioioib | xenitty1x great news | 19:09 |
| xentity1x | dioiob, any idea how i can get the icon in the dash to run that script? | 19:09 |
| dioioib | um you could make a symlink on your desktop i think. Or maybe it is right click on the desktop.. I have been running in server no gui for a while so i am a little rusty on that one | 19:10 |
| xentity1x | dioioib, also ubuntu seems to think hangouts is my default browser. http://imgur.com/Bdf1DPe | 19:11 |
| xentity1x | weird right? | 19:11 |
| xentity1x | it doesnt give me the option for chromium anymore | 19:11 |
| dioioib | humm. yeah that is a little wierd. I only use chrome or firefox (proxi) if I am using GUI. Never tried hangouts. | 19:11 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Here's the code http://pastebin.com/4Pp3JAsG same as the one in the tutorial and if it help I'm running ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 19:12 |
| xentity1x | dioioib, haha its not a broswer. it's the google chat client. | 19:12 |
| dioioib | let me see what I can find xentity1x. Tankerkiller125 I'll take a few min to look at your xorg and see if I can figure it out | 19:12 |
| dioioib | xentity1x strange. is it any good? | 19:12 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: OK then | 19:12 |
| xentity1x | dioiob, it's good as a chat client. It is sadly lacking as a browser. | 19:13 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 can you run a sudo find Aiptek and let me know if there is any file related to Aiptek like an .so driver or .ko | 19:14 |
| sultanselephant | xentity1x: i looked the best i could for a bug report -- im not sure. have you tried full uninstalls | 19:18 |
| xentity1x | sultanselephant, yep | 19:18 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: no such file or directory but at the same time I just removed the package I installed to see if that would work but I havn't rebooted yet to try it | 19:18 |
| sultanselephant | xentity1x: what about installing chrome | 19:18 |
| xentity1x | sultanselephant, could always do that | 19:18 |
| sultanselephant | i know | 19:18 |
| sultanselephant | sorry | 19:18 |
| sultanselephant | its just the kind of stuff my intermediate self would do | 19:18 |
| dioioib | try a reboot and if it does work we will take a look in your /dev/input/ to see if the device is there | 19:19 |
| xentity1x | sultanselephant, thanks | 19:19 |
| sultanselephant | see if like http://askubuntu.com/search?q=chromium+hangout | 19:19 |
| sultanselephant | similar to ur prob | 19:19 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: OK then it is thier or should be since the keyboard is working and it runs on the same USB input as the mouse | 19:19 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: But PC is still rebooting so I'm just waiting | 19:20 |
| dioioib | ok. | 19:20 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Mouse doesn't work at all even after the uninstall of the one package | 19:20 |
| sultanselephant | going to superstitiously restart router | 19:20 |
| dioioib | so both your mouse and stylus do not work now? | 19:21 |
| === evil is now known as Guest83145 | ||
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: No sylus still works I think linux is detecting it as a wamcom or whatever now. I didn't however delete the file that I made should I? | 19:22 |
| qengho | xentity1x: What? ./chromium-browser makes no sense if you don't tell us what directory you are in. Why "./" ? | 19:23 |
| dioioib | can you give me a list of what is in /dev/input ok and could you do an lsusb for me too. It makes sense the stylus is working your xorg config only has the one device listed | 19:23 |
| xentity1x | qengho, /usr/bin/chromium-browser | 19:23 |
| qengho | xentity1x: why ./ ? | 19:23 |
| xentity1x | qengho, that runs it from the current directory | 19:24 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Lots of stuff in dev/input/ event0 - event9 js0 and mice and mouse0 - mouse1 | 19:24 |
| dioioib | ok good. one sec | 19:24 |
| qengho | xentity1x: Perhaps you do not know of "hash -r"? | 19:24 |
| tankerkiller125 | and of course the by-id and by-path | 19:24 |
| xentity1x | qengho, i do not care to explain it? | 19:25 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: I have the lsusb as well and the mouse is not their. I'll pastebin the output for you | 19:26 |
| qengho | "help hash", or try it. You shell doesn't search path. It's the only reason I can think of you needed to specify the full path to chromium-browser program. | 19:26 |
| qengho | ^doesn't^doesn't always | 19:26 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 can you add this to the end of your xorg.conf make sure to make a cp to xorg.bak first. http://pastebin.com/7UhsPRGk | 19:26 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: whats the path to get to the xorg.conf file? | 19:28 |
| dioioib | good question. :) one sec.. I am on a mac right now | 19:28 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: OK becuase I have a folder called X11 and no xorg.conf file exist | 19:29 |
| dioioib | I think it is /etc/x11 | 19:29 |
| dioioib | yeah that is it | 19:29 |
| kolan | HI , I burned ubuntu iso in a CD , but when i boot from the bios , I got " messing operating system " , do i have to burn the iso image only or the content of the iso ??? | 19:29 |
| dioioib | just sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.bak | 19:29 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: OK found it | 19:30 |
| kolan | ?? | 19:30 |
| sultanselephant | kolan: did you run checksum | 19:31 |
| tankerkiller125 | UH problem. sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.bak yields xorg.conf No such file or directory | 19:31 |
| kolan | sultanselephant ; sorry what is it ?? first time heard of it ?? | 19:31 |
| sultanselephant | kolan: whatd you use to burn it? did you 'burn image to disc' | 19:31 |
| dioioib | are you in /etc/x11 | 19:32 |
| dioioib | type pwd | 19:32 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: yes I am I did it not and then cd /etc/X11 | 19:32 |
| tankerkiller125 | and looking at the folder tells me its not their as well | 19:33 |
| dioioib | humm. where did you find that other xorg.conf then. :| | 19:33 |
| dioioib | try fine xorg.conf | 19:33 |
| dioioib | find | 19:33 |
| dioioib | or find / -name xorg.conf | 19:33 |
| tankerkiller125 | That no such file or directory should I try reinstalling the xorg server? | 19:33 |
| kolan | sultanselephant ; can you show me the right way to install ubuntu using cd , i have already downloaded the iso , but i dontknow how ? | 19:34 |
| sultanselephant | kolan: you on windows now? | 19:34 |
| kolan | yes | 19:34 |
| dioioib | no you can run withtout an xorg.conf or we can rebuild it with your old post in paste bin and the new information I just gave you. | 19:34 |
| sultanselephant | kolan: ill PM ya | 19:34 |
| tankerkiller125 | Need sudo hold on | 19:35 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 it could also be under /usr/lib/xorg | 19:35 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: when I did that it found nothing or at least didn't tell me | 19:35 |
| dioioib | ok | 19:35 |
| dioioib | if it isn't under /usr/lib/xorg just go into /etc/x11/ and type touch xorg.conf and paste your old paste bin info and my info in and reboot. | 19:36 |
| sultanselephant | super user doo | 19:37 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: x11 folder has nothing and the xorg folder only contains protocol.txt and a folder called modules and I'll try that how do I delete a file using terminal? | 19:37 |
| dioioib | delete lets not delete anything just yet | 19:38 |
| dioioib | but to answer your question rm filename | 19:38 |
| tankerkiller125 | and just to let you know it seems to me that each device as a diffrent conf file | 19:39 |
| sydneyJDykstra | Can I upgrade the ubuntu video driver before I install ubuntu, so I don't have to when I install? | 19:39 |

| sultanselephant | sydneyJDykstra: why would you do that? | 19:41 |

| dioioib | Jtmcflea what system are you running it on? | 19:41 |
| Jtmcflea | what, boot from a drive? | 19:41 |
| Jtmcflea | oh i have this crappy laptop that runs windows xp | 19:41 |
| Jtmcflea | anyway im having trouble connecting to wireless from ubuntu 13.04 | 19:42 |
| sultanselephant | Jtmcflea: its the wifi adapter it wont find right | 19:42 |
| sultanselephant | anyway of plugging directly into the modem | 19:42 |
| dioioib | Jtmcflea you might be able to use an older version which might include the drivers for your hardware or you could install the driver if it exists | 19:42 |
| Jtmcflea | nope, my modems in my garage and theres a wall seperating my computer from my garage | 19:43 |
| dioioib | sultanselephant is right try ethernet jacks. | 19:43 |
| sydneyJDykstra | beckause, I have to use nomodeset to even load the cd. So I didn't know if i upgraded the driver before installing from the live cd,if I could get around doing it after installing. | 19:43 |
| Jtmcflea | well is there a way to like find avalible wifi connections? | 19:43 |
| sultanselephant | sydneyJDykstra: atre you talking about upgrading | 19:43 |
| Jtmcflea | and not hav to manualy type the ssid | 19:43 |
| sultanselephant | the os | 19:43 |
| Jtmcflea | no | 19:43 |
| sultanselephant | 'upgraded the driver before installing the live cd' | 19:43 |

| sydneyJDykstra | sultanselephant: ok,Thanks!! :-D | 19:50 |
| sbluen | I think I did it wrong by downloading it from the website | 19:50 |
| sbluen | because it seems that after downloading, making, and running install.sh on python 2.7.6, PIL no longer works | 19:52 |
| tankerkiller125 | ?? this is intresting still no mouse but now my camrea is detected as the Aiptek device and the tablet a waltop device. However after looking at the camrea agian it is indeed a aiptek device | 19:52 |
| rcampbel3 | sbluen: if you upgrade python, you'll have to reinstall all your python modules | 19:52 |
| Jtmcflea | do you remember me? | 19:53 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 wow that is different. | 19:53 |

| [Gentoo] | CryptoSiD: what do you mean when he-ipv6 is up? | 19:56 |
| rcampbel3 | sbluen: once you leave the safe confines of package management and build things from source... you can't really go back to package mgmt. Did you follow this? http://pip.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installing.html | 19:56 |
| kish_ | I want old gone | 19:57 |
| kish_ | gnome | 19:57 |
| kish_ | I don't like this new unity junk | 19:57 |
| Beldar | kish_, this is support can we link this? | 19:58 |
| kish_ | my 2007 atom cpu cant run | 19:58 |
| kish_ | link all you want | 19:58 |
| Beldar | !ot | kish_ | 19:58 |
| ubottu | kish_: #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! | 19:58 |
| kish_ | what the junk happened to shuttle worth | 19:59 |
| kish_ | how do I get old gnome back | 19:59 |
| [Gentoo] | kish_: eh? | 20:00 |
| DJones | kish_: You'll have to ask the people that deveop Gnome, they're the ones who dropped it | 20:00 |
| [Gentoo] | gnome 2? | 20:00 |
| [Gentoo] | or 3 | 20:00 |
| rcampbel3 | kish: live with OSX for a while, and unity makes a bit more sense. Take a mac user and have them use unity and they'll get it. I agree though, it's disconcerting to a techie because it's abstracted away from what's really going on on the computer, what's installed, etc. | 20:00 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: OK I'm back what do you suggest we try now | 20:00 |
| kish_ | the one people went back to when unity was forced upon them | 20:00 |
| sultanselephant | take unity discussions to -offtopic | 20:00 |
| sultanselephant | mang | 20:00 |
| kish_ | no its just too slow!! | 20:01 |
| DJones | !notunity | kish_ | 20:01 |
| ubottu | kish_: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, 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. | 20:01 |
| [Gentoo] | kish_: xubuntu is quite gnome2 like | 20:01 |
| sultanselephant | kish_: why not install a diff flavor | 20:01 |
| kish_ | oh thanks | 20:01 |
| kish_ | that's what i need | 20:01 |
| [Gentoo] | kish_: or lubuntu, or ubuntu-minimal with some quick de/wm | 20:01 |
| kish_ | ah xubynti | 20:01 |
| [Gentoo] | if you're moaning about speed | 20:01 |
| kish_ | what's minimal? | 20:01 |
| kish_ | how do i install minimal | 20:02 |
| [Gentoo] | just a pretty basic install where you can choose stuff | 20:02 |
| kish_ | I mean, I have to remove all other things | 20:02 |
| [Gentoo] | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 20:02 |
| sultanselephant | kish_: what happened exactly | 20:02 |
| [Gentoo] | just install that and it walks you though | 20:02 |
| kish_ | how do i remove everything | 20:02 |
| kish_ | oh okay | 20:02 |
| [Gentoo] | kish_: the ubuntu you currently use? | 20:02 |
| kish_ | yeah i want to purge | 20:03 |
| sultanselephant | kish_: yeah what caused you to lose the gui you liked | 20:03 |
| [Gentoo] | just either delete the partition, or install over the top using entire disk | 20:03 |
| Zelgod | Hi, i did a reinstall of ubuntu and it wiped windows 8, iw ould like to try an get windows back but my understanding is that i can't shink a lvm partition taking up the entire disk, And i dont know how to go about reinstalling confidently with this ufei Bios stuff. Any recommendations? | 20:03 |
| dioioib | tankerkille125 I am back too | 20:03 |
| sultanselephant | Zelgod: wiped windows 8 or the boot loader cant find it | 20:03 |
| kish_ | thanks | 20:03 |
| sultanselephant | Zelgod: oh | 20:04 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 do you have that lsusb pastebin link yet? | 20:04 |
| Zelgod | i chose reinstall ubuntu cause i was have some grahpical issues and it removed the windows partition. | 20:04 |
| di_giorgio | Mp3player [1 Fogo] CeBoLiNhA 2014 | 20:04 |
| [Gentoo] | Zelgod: maybe you chose the entire drive | 20:04 |
| [Gentoo] | to install to | 20:04 |
| dioioib | sultanselephant windows 8 might need you to boot using uEFI booting. | 20:05 |
| JennyBlueBird | hi guys, is there any way to allow several programs to access the webcam at once ? | 20:05 |
| Zelgod | i dont remember choosing the drive. i simply slected to reinstall ubuntu, | 20:05 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Uh no I can't my stylus doesn't do right clicks for some reason :P | 20:05 |
| dioioib | damn. | 20:05 |
| sultanselephant | Zelgod: is your whole hd recognized sizewise | 20:05 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, Can you boot to ubuntu, and run some commands for us? | 20:06 |
| hmmp | JennyBlueBird: are you trolling again in chat roulette :( | 20:06 |
| Zelgod | Im in ubuntu now. | 20:06 |
| dioioib | probably that xorg config I sent you needs adjusting. | 20:06 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, pastebin sudo parted -l | 20:06 |
| JennyBlueBird | hmmp, nope, just having a chat run in the background and want to be able to activate the camera to take a picture with cheese at the same time | 20:06 |
| tankerkiller125 | MM Well I reinstalled the xserver-xorg package I just haven't rebooted let me try that really quick | 20:06 |
| JennyBlueBird | as it is I have to turn off the cam in the chat to take a picture, which is annoying | 20:07 |
| Zelgod | Sure Beldar | 20:07 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: MM Well I reinstalled the xserver-xorg package I just haven't rebooted let me try that really quick | 20:07 |
| dioioib | yeah it should auto detect everything for you now at least | 20:08 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Or at least it should well find out | 20:08 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 I had similar issues setting up my wacom a few years ago. | 20:08 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Uh yah no go mouse still not working | 20:09 |
| tankerkiller125 | Yet everything else works | 20:09 |
| Zelgod | Beldar, http://pastebin.com/gczauL3i | 20:09 |
| dioioib | check the xorg.conf again and see what is there. if they didn't make it again then we are going to need to try that default mouse but maybe with mouse1 or something else. | 20:10 |
| dioioib | that is why I need to look at your lsusb. | 20:10 |

| dioioib | java filename.jar | 20:11 |
| Jtmcflea | im trying to run a .jar file. i marked it as executable. now what | 20:11 |
| xar- | you shouldn't need to chmod a .jar file to interact with it. | 20:11 |

| Jtmcflea | im just tyring to run minecraft | 20:11 |
| tankerkiller125 | bekks: Inless he installs Java | 20:11 |
| bekks | Jtmcflea: All you need to do is: java -jar myshiny.jar | 20:11 |
| dioioib | yeah forgot the -jar | 20:11 |
| Jtmcflea | and myshiny should be called minecraft | 20:11 |
| xar- | Minecraft installations are pretty well documented; I recommend #ubuntu-offtopic or #minecraft. | 20:12 |
| tankerkiller125 | bekks: Or right click and select Java :P | 20:12 |
| bekks | tankerkiller125: Even then an executable jar is nonsense. :) | 20:12 |
| Jtmcflea | wut? do i type tyhat in terminal? | 20:12 |
| xar- | ( or #java ) | 20:12 |
| bekks | Jtmcflea: Yes, you do. | 20:12 |

| torpet | Will there be a lot changes from 14.04 beta to 14.04? | 20:13 |
| Zelgod | Beldar, it was from Dell, i have the key but its not going to woiwithout recovery media. Id like to install ubuntu for a third time leaving space for windows when i decide to get it back, | 20:13 |
| Jtmcflea | typed that got this: The program 'java' can be found in the following packages: * default-jre * gcj-4.6-jre-headless * gcj-4.7-jre-headless * openjdk-7-jre-headless * openjdk-6-jre-headless (You will have to enable component called 'universe') Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package> | 20:13 |
| torpet | meaning if i installed beta today, would i have to reinstall on releaseday? | 20:13 |

| ubottu | Jtmcflea, please see my private message | 20:13 |

| Jtmcflea | what? | 20:13 |
| xar- | torpet: that's a nebulous question; "changes" are hard to quantify as all users are not the same. | 20:13 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, You have any recovery IE a image/clone of W8, and a recovery disc? | 20:14 |
| torpet | daftykins: so beta is more or less already stable, maybe just a few package changes? | 20:14 |

| Zelgod | Beldar, unfortantly i dont, im in europe my discs are in canada. | 20:14 |
| daftykins | torpet: if you're deciding whether or not to install it now, the answer is yes if your requirements are not mission critical | 20:14 |
| torpet | daftykins: ok thanks. just want to play around with unity | 20:15 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, Ah, I'm not sure myself how you would do that myself, I have not had to mess with a uefi/gpt W8 setup. | 20:15 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: It just says it is a directory | 20:16 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, I have W8.1 but in a msdos setup | 20:16 |
| dioioib | anything inside of it? | 20:16 |
| tankerkiller125 | Uh let me do a list right? | 20:16 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: How do List whats inside of it? | 20:17 |
| torpet | should i try a beta or the live cd image? | 20:17 |

| dioioib | do a sudo ls /<dir path>/ | 20:18 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, The issue here at least for my helping is the gpt partition, or remnants in the table still there. I would not have a clue with a lvm as well. | 20:18 |
| dioioib | it could be either the default condig directory or some sort of service daemon. | 20:19 |
| Zelgod | Beldar, Some way we can view it? | 20:19 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, view what? | 20:20 |

| dioioib | yeah so probably the default xorg configs for those devices. | 20:20 |
| dioioib | is that under the path /usr/ ? | 20:20 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: could the 50-.conf~ be the problem like and yes /usr/share/X11 | 20:21 |
| Zelgod | Beldar, lets just see.. | 20:21 |
| dioioib | do a sudo cat /usr/share/X11/50-.conf~ | 20:21 |
| tankerkiller125 | Its a file thats all it gives | 20:21 |

| Beldar | Zelgod, This W7 image you have from a msdos install? A clone? | 20:23 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 so when you run cat there is no output? | 20:23 |

| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: No such luck Should I try backing up my data and doing a fresh reinstall of ubuntu? | 20:26 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Be back in a bit | 20:26 |
| dioioib | yeah if you have time. just make sure all devices are plugged in | 20:27 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, Yep, gpt, I would ask in ##windows about using the W7 OEM here, and how, if install is possible. It's better answered by them, in the end you want both, that is the best place to start, windows installed first. | 20:28 |
| xar- | Should have simply used virtualbox, and avoided this mess entirely. | 20:28 |

| WASH_JONES | Hey everyone - quick question about wireless cards, or at least I think it's about wireless cards. I recently reinstalled Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and before that, in iwconfig, I'd get wlan0 as an option, but now all I see is eth0. Still able to connect to the internet obviously, but it's making some specialized tasks difficult. Any idea how to fix this? | 20:31 |
| Zelgod | Beldar, Resources are cloud saved. So it doesnt matter what happens so long as i dont brick the system and prefer to keep the efi in tact | 20:32 |
| Voyage | ? | 20:32 |
| daftykins | it makes me laugh greatly how laptops that are coming without optical drives now, still have programs that want to burn CDs or DVDs for backup | 20:32 |
| Voyage | can anyone hear me? | 20:32 |
| daftykins | WASH_JONES: you might need to provide more detail than "specialised tasks difficult" else, why care about an interface name? | 20:33 |
| Beldar | Zelgod, I would have no clue in this area. | 20:33 |

| Beldar | Zelgod, I would see if the W7 is a possibility in ##windows, than go from there. | 20:34 |
| Zelgod | Beldar, No porlbem thanks for the help anyways. I might just toss the windows 7 image in and see what happens | 20:34 |
| hmmp | Im running unity and when I click "1TB drive" icon on the left side bar it opens the files in imageviewer and not in file manager? where can I change that | 20:37 |

| MonkeyDust | hmmp i had that too, with others apps, moment... | 20:38 |
| Beldar | hmmp, An external? | 20:38 |

| dioioib | tankerkiller125 it might if you have all devices plugged in at the time of install. | 20:46 |
| tankerkiller125 | OK well the only problem is that installing ubuntu on this machine is a major pain. I'll see if thiers anything else I can do first | 20:47 |
| hmmp | MonkeyDust: yes that did the trick! thanks again :) | 20:47 |
| dioioib | well the alternative is the xorg config. | 20:47 |
| MonkeyDust | hmmp great, glad i could help | 20:47 |
| dioioib | it is a pain in the butt to setup but that is all you really need to do. | 20:47 |
| tankerkiller125 | Is their away to completly remove the xorg system and then reinstall it? | 20:48 |
| dioioib | find the device under /dev/ or /dev/input/ and add the proper config for that device | 20:48 |
| dioioib | yes but you have to do that in terminal and you don't have gui for a bit. | 20:48 |

| dioioib | well basically in the xorg config you need a device for each input device, and you can also setup more monitors if you want dual head. that is another pain all together. but I will post my full xorg conf so you can see what it looks like with a trackball and a wacom tablet. | 20:52 |
| simpleuser | Hi there. When using an external usb keyboard on a laptop, is there a way to deactivate the original laptop keyboard ? | 20:52 |

| dioioib | http://pastebin.com/e9h7V7YB | 20:53 |

| dioioib | chaotix no tankerkiller125 | 20:54 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: I'm ok with not using a GUI I use a terminal for alot I don't use the software store or whatever it is at all | 20:54 |
| dioioib | chaotix oddly enough your issue relates somewhat to my xorg config. you need to redirect your monitor output to the correct Identifier. | 20:55 |
| chaotix | are you guys also talking about getting dual monitors working? | 20:55 |
| chaotix | dioioib, can you tell me how i can redirect my monitor output? | 20:56 |
| === RickyB98 is now known as rickyb98 | ||
| tankerkiller125 | chaotix: No we are working on my mouse not working but it's in the same overall drivers | 20:56 |
| dioioib | that xorg config is a dual head monitor setup with ati cards using xinerama and gnome. | 20:56 |
| === anon is now known as sdafa | ||
| dioioib | chaotix you need to edit your xorg.conf file under /dev/x11/xorg.conf and let me tell you it is a huge pain in the butt. if you are using a wacom tablet don't even bother with it. | 20:57 |
| chaotix | no i am using an hp laptop, and a polaroid 32 inch hdtv | 20:57 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Can we try a complete reinstall of Xorg? | 20:57 |
| chaotix | why does vga work fine but if i try to do the same thing using hdmi it wont fit the screen right? | 20:58 |
| tankerkiller125 | chaotix: Try changing the display settings | 20:58 |
| dioioib | chaotix you will need to run hwinfo and find your PCI:#:#:# for the right port of the video card then create the devices in the xorg. But you need your drivers installed first and xinerama. you have to do it all from terminal as you will have no gui. | 20:59 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 yeah I would say try a reinstall of the xorg before you do though install lynx web browser in terminal just in case you get stuck you can still search the web from terminal. | 20:59 |

| dioioib | yeah that was the page I used to set my xorg up. Just didn't remember where the link was. | 21:02 |
| chaotix | i mean xorg | 21:02 |
| chaotix | dioioib, ok | 21:03 |
| dioioib | chaotix so you are running on default xorg config. | 21:03 |
| dioioib | follow the link that tankerkiller125 just posted that will get you started on your setup. | 21:03 |

| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: it did /usr/include/xorg and a some more | 21:13 |
| armando | Does some had this error in the booting ? | 21:14 |
| armando | ata2.00 exception emask 0x0 sact 0x1 serr 0x0 action 0x0 | 21:14 |
| dioioib | ok take a look at that dir and let me know if there are any .so or .ko files in there? | 21:14 |
| [[a] | the file has no extension, it says octet/steam | 21:16 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: No just some with .h files | 21:16 |
| dioioib | ok they are just include files then nothing to worry about xorg is gone. | 21:17 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: But some of the other directories contain ,so files | 21:17 |
| dioioib | oh ok. | 21:17 |
| dioioib | what directories were they? | 21:17 |
| tankerkiller125 | like /usr/lib/xorg | 21:17 |
| tankerkiller125 | can I just rm the folders? | 21:18 |
| dioioib | ok. well try the next command in the sequence to apt-get the new versions. | 21:18 |
| dioioib | I wouldn't remove them just try installing over them if it doesn't work then we might need to remove them. | 21:18 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Ok so now the files that were deleted match the file size that were added and I did all the commands now how do I start xserver? | 21:19 |
| Voyage | http://pastie.org/8997133 any help for scanner? | 21:20 |
| olskool | Hello | 21:20 |
| dioioib | sudo startx | 21:20 |
| thoonai | ok I', still stuck | 21:20 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: package not installed | 21:20 |
| thoonai | +m | 21:20 |
| olskool | how can I enable root login on UBUNTU server 13.10 | 21:21 |
| dioioib | did we run the configure on it? | 21:21 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Yes we did | 21:21 |
| dioioib | damn. | 21:21 |
| tankerkiller125 | or at least reconfigure | 21:21 |
| dioioib | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg yeah that one | 21:21 |
| dioioib | um maybe we need to launch ctrl it. | 21:22 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Yep and when I run the command now it says Fatal server error: server is already running on that display | 21:22 |
| [[a] | hello, is it possible to check if a file has been encrypted? | 21:22 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: should I restart the machine? | 21:22 |
| dioioib | ok just reboot | 21:22 |
| dioioib | yeah | 21:22 |
| thoonai | I'm getting psql: FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user "postgres" | 21:23 |
| thoonai | when I try to modify the database | 21:23 |
| ikonia | thoonai: sounds like your username/pass for your postgress database is wrong | 21:23 |
| olskool | how can I enable root login on UBUNTU server 13.10 | 21:24 |
| yeyeman | I'm trying to build geany from source. It says to do ./configure as the first step, but there is "no such file or directory" | 21:24 |
| ikonia | olskool: you shouldn't do that | 21:24 |
| ikonia | yeyeman: then you shouldn't be building it | 21:24 |
| Logan_ | !sudo | olskool | 21:24 |
| ubottu | olskool: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 21:24 |
| olskool | I know the risks | 21:24 |
| ikonia | olskool: you still shouldn't do it | 21:24 |
| ikonia | olskool: more so if you don't know how to do it | 21:24 |
| yeyeman | ikonia, what do you mean? | 21:24 |
| thoonai | ikonia: If I installed postgresql, then the user postgress should be default configurated? or? | 21:25 |
| ikonia | yeyeman: I mean if you a.) can't deal with that basic error message b.) don't seem to grasp what you are doing - you shouldn't be doing it | 21:25 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: when it booted it gave and erro screen really quick but that was thier before I lost mouse input and mouse still doesn't work. I guess I'll backup and reinstall | 21:25 |
| ikonia | thoonai: no, you have to setup the users/accounts at the first start up | 21:25 |
| joseph07 | Hello. I'm having trouble with X starting up | 21:25 |
| joseph07 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7209665/ | 21:25 |
| ikonia | thoonai: can you cannot as an admin user to the postgres instance | 21:25 |
| yeyeman | ikonia, "if you don't immediately know how to do everything forget it and don't come here asking for help" | 21:26 |
| joseph07 | It seems like there's a segmentation fault occurring during startup, in libxfont | 21:26 |
| ikonia | yeyeman: no, but you are doing the equivilent of trying to do brain surgery before learning to write your name | 21:26 |
| ikonia | yeyeman: you move in steps - forward | 21:26 |
| ikonia | yeyeman: not jump to the end goal | 21:26 |
| thoonai | ikonia: I executed pg_createcluster 9.1 main --start | 21:26 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 well worth a shot to see if it would work. | 21:26 |
| [[a] | hello, is it possible to check if a file has been encrypted? | 21:26 |
| joseph07 | I was troubleshooting this a few days ago, just getting back to it now. But the error seems to have been triggered by a libxfont update | 21:26 |
| ikonia | thoonai: I have no idea what that command does., | 21:26 |
| ikonia | thoonai: that wasn't the question though, can you connect to postgres as an admin user ? | 21:27 |
| ikonia | [[a]: try to edit the file ? | 21:27 |
| thoonai | ikonia: psql -d postgres -U postgres ? | 21:27 |
| ikonia | [[a]: or read the file | 21:27 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 lets hope the fresh install detects the new hardware and installs it by default. | 21:27 |
| dioioib | sorry I couldn't get it working for ya | 21:27 |
| ikonia | thoonai: well, thats connecting to the database postgres with the user postgres. | 21:27 |
| ikonia | thoonai: so if that is your admin account/db - yes | 21:27 |
| xauth | [[a]: Try the "file" command on it? If it says "data" good chance it's encrypted. | 21:28 |
| joseph07 | [[a]: I'd suggest using the file command, especially if you're not sure what type of file it might be | 21:28 |
| xauth | [[a]: Try to decrypt it? | 21:28 |
| [[a] | ikonia, I tried everything thats why I came here (I googled, tried all the available) | 21:28 |
| ikonia | [[a]: tried what ? | 21:28 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: It did in the beggining. Only problem now is installing it. the reason being is becuase I have a AMD based video card | 21:28 |
| ikonia | [[a]: if you can read the file - it's not encypted, if you can't, the error message should tell you why | 21:28 |
| dioioib | yeah. I am having issues with my AMD cards too. I just bought nvidia and am going to try and set that up. right now I only have terminal access. I am finding out that mixed video is next to impossible to setup. At least I have my two ati cards working. But I can't switch back it is a dual boot and I need all the cards. | 21:29 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: And I always get the probel just got..... which is the screen freezing and the computer doing nothing | 21:30 |
| dioioib | damn. and you need to use this stylus? | 21:31 |
| dioioib | or is it more the monitor not working that is the issue | 21:31 |
| yenic | What is the standard Python version going to be in 14.04LTS? | 21:31 |
| dioioib | I remember when I was installing the drivers for my 7850's I went back to a really old driver to get it to work. like CCC 9.7 or something. | 21:31 |
| thoonai | ikonia: I have no clue | 21:32 |
| thoonai | ikonia: I can't login as any user | 21:32 |
| ikonia | ok - so you've not setup your users | 21:32 |
| joseph07 | [[a]: did you get your problem solved? | 21:32 |
| [[a] | ok, I have a file of 1GB, no extension (by typing on terminal : file : myfile => octet/stream). 1) tried to extract it but failed, 2) cat myfile => got unusual characters, 3) tried to join the file => join myfile => got the same file. MY problem is >> I couldn't even know what type is this file (of course I googled about that) , and I thought maybe it is encrypted, so I came to ask if anyone could possible know how to check if a file has been encrypted or not | 21:33 |
| joseph07 | [[a]: where did you get the file? | 21:33 |
| ikonia | [[a]: what is the file | 21:34 |
| ikonia | [[a]: or what are you expecting it to be | 21:34 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: LOL the mouse is the issue atm I could care less about the graphics | 21:34 |
| thoonai | ikonia: thanx I'm on it | 21:34 |
| dioioib | yeah.. I am just wondering why the system is crashing from an input device. | 21:34 |
| sakul | hey ubuntu people :) | 21:35 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: It doesn't it crashes from the graphics card I just never cared enough to fix it becase it takes it awhile to crash inless I'm doing somthing really stupid or somthing thats intensive | 21:35 |
| [[a] | I am expecting to be a folder and inside that folder im exptecting to find brushes of photoshop and wallpapers (maybe, .jpg, .png and also .abr for brushes) | 21:36 |
| ikonia | [[a]: where did you get this file | 21:36 |
| [[a] | from my friend , he is a designer | 21:37 |
| [[a] | he said, extract it | 21:37 |
| ikonia | [[a]: talk to him then | 21:37 |
| xauth | [[a]: Did you try the "file" command on it yet? | 21:37 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125. ok yeah then we are just looking at the xorg.conf issue again. I wish it was easier to setup but xorg config editing is a pain | 21:37 |
| [[a] | yes I did | 21:37 |
| ikonia | [[a]: ask him the status of the file | 21:37 |
| joseph07 | xauth: result was octet stream | 21:37 |
| thoonai | ikonia: how do I change the user passwort for postgres user, if I don't know it and can't login? | 21:38 |
| thoonai | ikonia: o.O | 21:38 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: couldn't I install the server edition and then install only the things that I want? | 21:38 |
| ikonia | thoonai: you have to do it with the database running in exclusive mode, I'e not done it for a long time so would need to get the process | 21:38 |
| [[a] | example in terminal : checkfile "myfilePSD" ==> encrypted (or type of file....) | 21:38 |
| ikonia | [[a]: talk to your friend and ask him | 21:39 |
| [[a] | lol | 21:39 |
| Ntemis | hi | 21:39 |
| ikonia | [[a]: he can tell you if he encypted it and how he encypted it | 21:39 |
| Ntemis | any1 knows how to fix this? error: found two disks with the index 1 for RAID md/0 | 21:39 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 yes that is exactly what I do. | 21:39 |
| [[a] | ikonia, thank you my friend , yeah I'll ask him | 21:39 |
| ikonia | Ntemis: it means it doesn't know which one is the "primary" with the sane data | 21:40 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Only problem is that I'm not ubuntu smart and I would need lots of time I don't have | 21:40 |
| dioioib | it makes for a really small install. And I prefer gnome so I tend to use this install method based on my own tastes. | 21:40 |
| Ntemis | ikonia: now what? | 21:40 |
| ikonia | Ntemis: what do you mean, now what ? | 21:40 |
| dioioib | yeah it takes a little while to install that way. | 21:41 |
| Ntemis | needs fixing? | 21:41 |
| ikonia | Ntemis: up to you | 21:41 |
| tankerkiller125 | If I had the time and I knew C or whatever it is I would make my own desktop but I don't | 21:41 |
| Ntemis | i must remove and re add every hdds back ? | 21:41 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: If I had the time and I knew C or whatever it is I would make my own desktop but I don't | 21:41 |
| ikonia | Ntemis: you've not said your setup, so I do'nt know | 21:41 |
| Ntemis | raid 5 | 21:41 |
| ikonia | that's just the raid level | 21:42 |
| ikonia | if you can't describe a basic raid setup, I'm not going to spend time on it | 21:42 |
| Ntemis | 4x2tb | 21:42 |
| Ntemis | mdadm | 21:43 |
| Ntemis | software | 21:43 |
| dioioib | you don't really need to know C but you do need to know how to use apt-get and sometimes make depending on what your needs are. But you would need a knowledge of PPA resources and what packages you need. The desktop is probably your easiers install. Followed by xorg config. either method you are still going to need to edit the xorg. :( | 21:43 |
| Ntemis | ikonia: can i safle ignore it? | 21:45 |
| ikonia | Ntemis: up to you | 21:45 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: I never HAD to edit xorg I choose to edit it in order to try to better understand it and in the proccess I broke it :P | 21:45 |
| Ntemis | is the array ok? | 21:45 |
| ikonia | as I said, if you can't describe your raid system - I'm not interested | 21:45 |
| dioioib | tankerkiller125 story of my life. | 21:46 |
| Ntemis | you need mdstats? | 21:46 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Same | 21:46 |
| Ntemis | dont know what you need from me | 21:46 |
| dioioib | lol | 21:46 |
| dioioib | I write everything down now in an 80 page notebook. every step so I can fix it if I break it. | 21:46 |
| dioioib | xorg is by far the hardest thing I have had to setup. | 21:46 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: ok i might need help installing just to let you know | 21:46 |
| Ntemis | ikonia: md0 : active raid5 sdd1[2] sde1[4] sdb1[0] | 21:46 |
| Ntemis | 5860145664 blocks super 1.2 level 5, 512k chunk, algorithm 2 [4/3] [U_UU] | 21:46 |
| dioioib | sure. I might not be on for a bit I need to go home and make something to eat | 21:47 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: OK thats fine as long as this part goes through I'll be fine other wise I'll need help although it appears that it worked :P Thanks nomodeset | 21:48 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Problem mouse still doesn't work.... | 21:48 |
| dioioib | yeah xorg for sure.. what brand of mouse is it? | 21:49 |
| Scriptonaut | hey guys, I downloaded this package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/smlnj-runtime | 21:49 |
| tankerkiller125 | HP not sure really | 21:49 |
| Scriptonaut | then I dpkg -i it | 21:49 |
| Scriptonaut | however I still can't use the sml command | 21:49 |
| Scriptonaut | why is installing smlnj so impossible? | 21:49 |
| joseph07 | anyone have any insight regarding my X startup issue? | 21:49 |
| ikonia | Scriptonaut: why are you using dpk | 21:49 |
| ikonia | Scriptonaut: you should be using apt-get/software center to pull in packages+dependencies | 21:50 |
| Scriptonaut | what else would I use? It's apparently in teh universe repo, but I can't | 21:50 |
| Scriptonaut | I apt-get install smlnj | 21:50 |
| Scriptonaut | doesn't exist | 21:50 |
| tankerkiller125 | dioioib: I'll install using the stylus and see if the reinstall resets the xorg server | 21:50 |
| Scriptonaut | for 12.04 apparently | 21:50 |
| ikonia | Scriptonaut: ok, so either a.) the package name is wrong b.) you have the wrong repo | 21:50 |
| ikonia | Scriptonaut: saucy isn't 12.04 | 21:50 |
| ikonia | so why are you trying to install saucy packages - you will break your system | 21:50 |
| Scriptonaut | wait what? | 21:51 |
| dioioib | ok. let me know how it goes though I am interested to see if we can get it working. | 21:51 |
| ikonia | 12.04 is precise | 21:51 |
| ikonia | you are trying to install a package for saucy | 21:51 |
| dioioib | I have to get going talk to you soon | 21:51 |
| Scriptonaut | it seems to only exist for lucid, quantal, raring, saucy, and trusty | 21:51 |
| thoonai | ikonia: ok, thanx it worked ^^ | 21:51 |
| ikonia | thoonai: nice job ! | 21:51 |
| joseph07 | Scriptonaut: what is the output of dpkg -L smlnj-runtime | 21:52 |
| joseph07 | Scriptonaut: or whatever the package was called, that dpkg -i'd | 21:52 |
| Scriptonaut | oh | 21:52 |
| Scriptonaut | says it's not installed | 21:52 |
| Scriptonaut | even though I apparently just installed it | 21:53 |
| ikonia | probably because you try to install a package from the wrong distro | 21:53 |
| ikonia | so it didn't install | 21:53 |
| thoonai | ikonia: now only owncloud itself is not working xD | 21:53 |
| Scriptonaut | so what option to do I have to get this software? | 21:53 |
| joseph07 | Scriptonaut: what was the output of dpkg -i? | 21:53 |
| Scriptonaut | reading database ... some files installed\nPreparing to replace smlnj-runtime\nUnpacking replacement\nSetting up smlnj-runtime | 21:54 |
| Scriptonaut | no error messages | 21:54 |
| joseph07 | Scriptonaut: this might be a dumb question but I'm assuming you ran dpkg as root? | 21:55 |
| ikonia | you're missing the point | 21:55 |
| ikonia | you shouldn't be using dpkg because that package is not meant for your distro | 21:56 |
| Scriptonaut | yes | 21:56 |
| ikonia | so stop doing that - remove any reference to it | 21:56 |
| Scriptonaut | ok how do I remove it | 21:56 |
| Scriptonaut | and then, after I do that, how do I get the software? | 21:56 |

| Beldar | Scriptonaut, I see a ppa with a backport to precise. | 21:58 |
| Scriptonaut | ah, sorry I'm a bit of a noob | 21:59 |
| Scriptonaut | how do I add those | 21:59 |
| Beldar | Scriptonaut, Generally ppa's are not supported or suggested here, however on occasion that is the only option, not sure that is the case here. | 22:00 |
| kriskropd | gparted only seems to see 1.64TB of a brand new 4TB WD green hdd - this remains true even after I set the partition table to gpt as I did for my other drives that exceed 2TB - thoughts? Think it's bad and needs a refund? | 22:00 |
| joseph07 | Scriptonaut: a third option would be to build from source http://www.smlnj.org/install/index.html | 22:00 |
| OneDeadPixel | Holy shit! | 22:00 |

| Scriptonaut | beldar, could you link me the ppa you were talking about | 22:03 |
| Beldar | Scriptonaut, https://launchpad.net/~hrzhu/+archive/smlnj-backport it tells you the install, If needed the re is a ppa-purge that removes all installed and the ppa, supposed to anyway, if needed. | 22:05 |
| Beldar | the purge is a convert the ppa downloads to the ubuntu repos basically | 22:06 |
| kriskropd | Voyage: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=scanlite&searchon=all&suite=all§ion=all I don't think scanlite is available in ubuntu repos - can you build the source or install a .deb file for it? | 22:06 |

| Matriks404 | question of the year | 22:25 |
| ikonia | Ulag2222: did you remove the lock file as you where told to | 22:25 |
| sbluen | ikonia, because some software and drivers don't appear to support 64 bit operating systems. Meanwhile, it is more difficult to adddress large amounts of memory on 32 bit operating systems. | 22:26 |
| ikonia | sbluen: again - what does that matter | 22:26 |

| Smackbook | i don't know what for certain it means, but something is messed up and google doesn't have much info and if you don't know how to do lots of troubleshooting yourself, youd be safer to just back everything up and do a clean reinstall to be sure you don't end up losing data down the line to some weird thing no one can find info about | 23:16 |

| amagee | Hey I'd like to copy my /home partition to a new partition on another drive, and then update the fstab to refer to the new partition. What's the best way to do this? In particular what's the most appropriate way to copy the files? | 23:44 |
| Beldar | amagee, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 23:46 |
| === proletariat is now known as unchosen | ||
| amagee | ah cool, that makes sense, thanks | 23:47 |
| amagee | oh actually | 23:47 |
| Smackbook | VincentVonDarkne: did you ever get you deal working? | 23:47 |
| amagee | so rsync is how people usually do it? | 23:47 |
| VincentVonDarkne | nope.... | 23:47 |
| Smackbook | there is a program called "UNetBootN" i didn't say it earlier because i couldn't find the name of it | 23:48 |
| Smackbook | its been the only way i've ever gotten an ubuntu OS install to work on an external drive like that | 23:48 |
| amagee | Beldar: for step 2, it seems the reboot there is unnecessary? just to mount the new partition? | 23:50 |
| VincentVonDarkne | I have done that... I have a copy of ubuntu live on a pendrive and DVD... I was trying to do a full working install on an External HDD so that I could dual boot and use that for gaming other then use windows | 23:50 |
| Beldar | amagee, No idea, I have never done this, the wiki should have all the info there. | 23:50 |
| amagee | ok np | 23:50 |
| VincentVonDarkne | Smackbook I was thinging of just taking out my HDD of the laptop and try to installing it that way so that it will not even see the other HDD and see if that will help then set up the dual booting after I get it installed | 23:53 |
| Smackbook | that might work, but the UNetBootN is pretty easy | 23:54 |
| VincentVonDarkne | from what I could tell it was having an I/O error with block 46 | 23:54 |
| Smackbook | orly | 23:54 |
| Smackbook | fsck that ho | 23:55 |
| VincentVonDarkne | Smackbook I will give it a try... if not I will be back on here later.Thanks :D | 23:56 |
| Smackbook | np | 23:56 |
