ash_ | anyone use netflix? | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
ash_ | there is something really basic that i miss after i install netflix-desktop | 00:01 |
ash_ | what do i do then? | 00:01 |
ash_ | do i have to use regular wine or something? | 00:01 |
xar- | It's doubtful you'll receive support for netflix-desktop here. | 00:02 |
ash_ | nevermind... | 00:04 |
ash_ | just go to the dash and search for it | 00:04 |

Drontis | would anybody here be able to help me with getting a gui running on ubuntu? I updated from 12.04 i believe and it won't appear. no side bar, no unity. just a desktop icon i had for steam | 00:27 |
jeffrey_f | linuxthefish: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2156211 Look at response #10. | 00:27 |

kostkon | Drontis, upgraded from 12.04 to where | 00:29 |
Drontis | I can still run it | 00:29 |
Drontis | to 13.04 | 00:29 |
kostkon | Drontis, 13.04 is eol we can help you. but we can help you upgrade to 13.10 i guess | 00:29 |
Drontis | I think it was from 12.04.. I don't remember. | 00:29 |
Drontis | as long as I can get a user interfaec that would be fine | 00:30 |
kostkon | Drontis, you should have waited 2 more weeks and then you could upgrade to 14.04 | 00:30 |
daftykins | Drontis: try running "unity --replace" | 00:30 |
kostkon | Drontis, 12.04 to 14.04 directly | 00:30 |
Drontis | this is ture | 00:30 |
Drontis | true* | 00:31 |

sysop2 | I cant find a list of supported firewire cards should they all work? | 01:07 |
kostkon | Drontis, try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#Installation_without_X_.2BAC8_from_the_console i'm guessing you mean the nvidia driver from the repos | 01:07 |
Beldar | Ulag2222, No dropdown from the gear nest to the login? ubuntu is unity there. | 01:08 |
Beldar | next* | 01:08 |
kostkon | Drontis, remove the driver and reboot and hopefully ubuntu will use the nouveau driver instead | 01:08 |
Ulag2222 | yes, correct | 01:09 |
Beldar | Ulag2222, Did you ever have one? | 01:09 |
Ulag2222 | one what | 01:09 |
kostkon | Drontis, but if you are really on 13.04 you definitely need to upgrade to 13.10. 13.04 is eol and its repos are down | 01:09 |

Andorin | Oh sorry, forgot I'm in the main channel. Going to #ubuntu+1 | 01:14 |
ItsMeLenny | Psil0Cybin, i get such a problem, i am unsure if it's because of adobe flash, or if it's the nvidia drivers, usually updating my nvidia drivers solve the problem | 01:14 |

sysop2 | basically what you do is assign a virtual terminal to a monitor and then tail your messages log to the tty so when the machine freezes at least you can see what the kernel messages where. it might give you an idea of what is crashing your computer. | 01:29 |

jeffrey_f | depper: ALL of the source-code is available for review. Where you MAY get spyware is where Ubuntu is used as a basis of a customized version and additional, possibly, untrusted software parts have been replaced. | 02:05 |
rww | depper: for what it's worth, Steam works fine in Debian testing. | 02:05 |
depper | jeffrey_f ok the source-code is available, but when you download ubuntu the code is compiled, right??? | 02:06 |
depper | jeffrey_f pre-compiled | 02:07 |
rww | unless you download source packages and compile them, yes | 02:07 |
depper | raw so, who guarantee they don't put a spy before compilation? | 02:08 |
depper | rww* | 02:08 |
rww | depper: nobody. if you have actual evidence of that happening, I'd be interested in seeing it | 02:08 |
rww | you can find such evidence using wireshark, debugging tools, etc. | 02:08 |
Chaorain | Hey, I'm on Ubuntu 12.04. How do I update to 13.10? or 14.04 if its out? The update manager isn't showing the latest version even when I force it to check again. | 02:08 |
ska | Has anyone installed 13.10 on a Asus Z87-Pro ? I'm having failure on "installing busybox-initrd or similar.. | 02:08 |
rww | however, this happens to be even more the case for Steam, so I expect you should direct your paranoia there first | 02:09 |
sultanselephant | lenses are not spyware in any modern sense of the word | 02:09 |
vice__ | hmm. next problem: I am not seeing my intern hdd in gparted. But I see my ssd. I am using an ubuntu-live-usb-dongle. What yould cause this bahavior? | 02:09 |
depper | rww lol | 02:09 |
rww | Chaorain: by default, 12.04 will only show updates for LTS releases. 12.04 is the current LTS until 14.04 comes out on the 17th, hence the lack of notice | 02:09 |
ska | I'm not sure how to proceed. Do I need to change the BIOS for Legacy mode instead of EFI? | 02:09 |
rww | Chaorain: do you want to change that setting, or wait until 14.04 comes out? | 02:09 |
kostkon | Chaorain, on the release day (or maube 1-2 days after, depends) ubuntu will ask you if yhou want to upgrade to 14.04 | 02:09 |
sultanselephant | just saying the bars gotta be raised on the phrase spyware in the modern day of google and social media and smartphone apps | 02:10 |
Beldar | vice__, This happen to be a W8 dual boot intended? | 02:10 |
depper | when ubuntu will support 4k resolution natively??????? | 02:10 |
Chaorain | rww: I should probably wait and only update once. I could install steam now and it would stick around right | 02:10 |
Chaorain | ? | 02:10 |
vice__ | Beldar, whats a W8 fusl boot? | 02:10 |
Beldar | ska, You seen the uefi wiki? | 02:11 |
Chaorain | kostkon: Thanks | 02:11 |
rww | Chaorain: correct | 02:11 |
Chaorain | rww: Thanks, its been a while and I'm rusty on linux. | 02:12 |
Beldar | vice__, fusl? is this dual? | 02:12 |
vice__ | Beldar, Whats a w8 dual boot? :) | 02:12 |
jeffrey_f | depper: What you say is actually plausible, but you are free to review the code, then compile from the sources, from the kernel on up | 02:12 |
MaxUx | hi | 02:13 |

MaxUx | hi can anybody help me witha problem with unity ? | 02:13 |
Beldar | !uefi | ska seems to be | 02:13 |
ubottu | ska seems to be: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS.

vice__ | Beldar, I see that device in windows. I dont think thats a hardware issue :S | 02:16 |
MaxUx | well i installed unity but it doesnt appear in the login screen | 02:16 |
jdwwatts | something very simple | 02:16 |

kostkon | depper, yes | 02:18 |
Beldar | vice__, If it's a ntfs see what gparted says about it, it may show there, run sudo fdisk -l to see if it shows. May be just a chkdsk is need to clean up to be read in linux | 02:18 |
ska | Beldar: can I install 13.10 in UEFI ? | 02:18 |
vice__ | Beldar, Maybe its connected to the mainboard as "cable select" not "slave/master". Coulkd this cause the problem? | 02:18 |
Beldar | ska, yes | 02:18 |
depper | kostkon maybe other LTS ubuntu | 02:19 |
Beldar | vice__, I'm not sure there, | 02:19 |
kostkon | depper, the next one, 16.04 | 02:19 |
jeffrey_f | depper: I worry more about closed source OS's like windows and apple, where you have no idea what happens under the covers. It has been proven that Apple can reach into your device an remove data/files if THEY, for what ever reason, decide that you are no longer allowed to have that data.....If they can reach in an remove that, they can certainly do more...... | 02:19 |
ska | Beldar: I used the 13.10 server install and made a USB installer with usb-creator-gtk.. Thats all I did.. | 02:20 |
ska | I'm not sure what else I did wrong then.. Or what I have to cahnge.. | 02:20 |
Beldar | ska, I would ask in #ubuntu-server as you have a uefi setup, they would know what's up on installing. | 02:21 |
ska | When I booted in UEFI mode, and partitioned using the UEFI, it failed just after partitioning. | 02:21 |
MaxUx | puta madre!!! | 02:21 |

jeffrey_f | depper: We're probably slipping far off-topic. But yes. You have no idea if what you do is secretly being bled-off to somewhere. Unlike spyware, doing it so slowly, you never notice. I'm pretty sure NSA is all up and through both OS's with back-doors or simple data sniffing your activities. | 02:25 |
seekncftpgethelp | !patience | 02:27 |
ubottu | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 02:27 |
seekncftpgethelp | Thank you, i've spent all day on the web looking for help, to no avail. :( | 02:28 |
depper | jeffrey_f i believe too, i have a computer with linux installed for that reason, but it isn't the solution, because the servers are saving my activities | 02:29 |
jeffrey_f | seekncftpgethelp: I think you may be getting into symlinks which may tie back to another location, hence the never-ending tree | 02:29 |
depper | jeffrey_f facebook, google, etc | 02:29 |
jeffrey_f | depper: the solution is to run your own mail-server. Also, aside from mail, you can tor | 02:30 |
seekncftpgethelp | Thank you Jeffrey, but no, there are, at this time, only text files for testing. There is also only one sub-directory with a text file. Again, for testing. | 02:31 |
jeffrey_f | seekncftpgethelp: /x/x/x/x/x is the same directory? | 02:33 |
depper | jeffrey_f i think the solution is stopping using facebook, twitter too | 02:34 |
joseph07 | the problem is trusting trust | 02:34 |
seekncftpgethelp | jeffrey_f Yes, the sub-directory is named "x" and it contains one file called test.txt. The directory is created with 50 (or until timeout) repetitions and the text file never shows up. Not that i want it after 50 sub-directories. | 02:35 |
wolflarson | seekncftpgethelp: why not just start the connection from the localdirectory? i know its not a fix but does that work? | 02:35 |

depper | jeffrey_f lol | 02:36 |
depper | jeffrey_f building the essential servers is the way, email as you said for example ... | 02:37 |
seekncftpgethelp | Thank you wolflarson. I am starting in the local directory. The ncftpget, recursive, is supposedly going to get the files and sub-directories from the remote. But instead it creates the remote sub-directory, and then does it again and again. | 02:37 |
wolflarson | and the reason you are not useing scp or rsync is? | 02:39 |
wolflarson | from what im reading this uses FTP, so no encryption | 02:39 |
ska | Beldar: do you think I should go with the LiveUSB option first? | 02:40 |
wolflarson | even if this is over the local network and you dont need to wory about sending creds over the network rsync is better for recursive afaik right? | 02:40 |
jeffrey_f | depper: Or GnuPG/PGP encrypt all communications | 02:41 |
seekncftpgethelp | Good question wolflarson! The camera, which is the remote device, does not have scp, only telnet and ftp. I don't need the security because it's a local network. What i'm trying to do is remove the files on the SD disk from the camera before it overfills. Can i delete files with rsync? | 02:42 |
Beldar | ska, I have not installed in a uefi so not really sure what you need. | 02:42 |
depper | jeffrey_f or tor web browser | 02:42 |
depper | jeffrey_f for surfing the web | 02:43 |
seekncftpgethelp | I also tried wget, but it doesn't delete the files after copying. | 02:43 |
ska | Beldar: thanks.. I once thought I knew what I was doing.. Now not so clear | 02:43 |
jeffrey_f | depper: I think that you meant AND, not or | 02:43 |
depper | jeffrey_f yes, right | 02:43 |
Beldar | ska, I think this thread is helpful. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 | 02:44 |
wolflarson | yes seekncftpgethelp --delete-after will delete the file after transfer but rsync uses ssh so sounds like you are sol as far as that goes. | 02:44 |
depper | jeffrey_m thanks for the conversation | 02:45 |
depper | jeffrey_f go sleep right now | 02:45 |
jeffrey_f | depper: So you are on here and not cloaked?? Just by your user info, you are in Brazil? | 02:45 |

wolflarson | erm ... software center | 02:53 |
=== yenic_ is now known as yenic | ||
seekncftpgethelp | wolflarson Yes i can do it with a gui, but that means i can never sleep, because i have to do it by hand every few hours, catching the build up of files, before it overflows the capacity of the sd disk. I would like this to be automated and run via a cron job. | 02:55 |
wolflarson | i see | 02:55 |
wolflarson | so a script then | 02:55 |
seekncftpgethelp | wolflarson Okay, but i lack the necessary script-fu. Do you, or anyone else, know how to write a script to copy a file from an ftp location, then remove it, and keep the file structure recursively? | 02:57 |
wolflarson | i have never created such a script however one could be made | 02:58 |
wolflarson | so does the cam create folders then put one pic in it?\ | 02:58 |
wolflarson | or one folder perhour? | 02:58 |
wolflarson | or ... how is this set up | 02:59 |
seekncftpgethelp | I have searched and searched and keep coming up with things that don't work, like the ncftpget that doesn't act as advertised. | 02:59 |
wolflarson | seekncftpgethelp: what type of camira is this? | 03:00 |
seekncftpgethelp | No, the camera makes a directory with a name like %Y-%M-%D-%H on it's own SD card. So, i want to get all the pictures in each of those directories without losing the directory name, because it is meaningful. | 03:00 |
seekncftpgethelp | I believe the camera is running a stripped down debian. | 03:01 |
wolflarson | and one picture per folder? | 03:01 |
seekncftpgethelp | No, many pictures per folder. | 03:02 |
wolflarson | how many? | 03:02 |
wolflarson | and what are the name pattern there | 03:02 |
wolflarson | so the cam has cron on it ? | 03:02 |
Phoenix_ | helppp pleaseeeeeeee | 03:03 |
Phoenix_ | ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server. | 03:03 |
wolflarson | check your login information | 03:03 |
seekncftpgethelp | I have no idea. Anywhere from 1 to 1000 i suppose. The names of the picture files are %H-%M-%S-%ID. But, i don't have access to the Debian on the camera, so i can't change anything there. | 03:03 |
wolflarson | you own it correct? | 03:03 |
seekncftpgethelp | wolflarson, was that for me? I own the camera, yes. | 03:04 |
wolflarson | just checking | 03:04 |
wolflarson | ok so ftp is going to be easyier looks like | 03:08 |
seekncftpgethelp | wolflarson Yes, that's why i looked into ncftpget and lftp. But both failed in undocumented ways… i am assuming that i did something wrong, but i don't know what. | 03:10 |
wolflarson | so you have a serve running that can run this on cron or are you going to keep your desktop on 24/7? | 03:12 |
wolflarson | you have a NAS you are going to throw this on? | 03:12 |
IcemanV9 | seekncftpgethelp: sounds like rsync will do the trick - copying the file from SD to local disk and delete file on SD | 03:13 |
IcemanV9 | good examples from http://www.tecmint.com/rsync-local-remote-file-synchronization-commands/ | 03:14 |
IcemanV9 | look at #8 & #9 | 03:14 |
seekncftpgethelp | wolflarson I only have an old laptop that i'm running ubuntu on. So it will be up and running 24/7. | 03:15 |
Compaq | My graphics are going kookoo, what was the keystroke to pull up a terminal? | 03:15 |

Compaq | tty | 03:15 |
kostkon | Compaq, ctrl+alt+f1 to f6 f7 to come back | 03:15 |
seekncftpgethelp | IcemanV9 Thank you. I thought that rsync does NOT delete a file after copying it. Am i wrong? | 03:16 |
Compaq | this is the weirdest thing I've ever had happen in ubuntu on a server | 03:16 |
Compaq | haha | 03:16 |
SchrodingersScat | seekncftpgethelp: should be an option | 03:17 |
wolflarson | it is | 03:17 |
wolflarson | however rsync uses ssh | 03:17 |
wolflarson | and he says the cam does not have ssh | 03:17 |
IcemanV9 | #8 gives an example of delete a file | 03:17 |
wolflarson | just telnet and ftp | 03:17 |
IcemanV9 | #9 gives an example of testing it first (dry run) before you actually delete it | 03:18 |
Compaq | I have one of these: https://scontent-a-sea.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/t31.0-8/1072161_10154036537465492_1250702223281170378_o.jpg the graphics are going kookoo and I can't seem to get it into terminal. | 03:18 |
SchrodingersScat | !info curlftpfs | wolflarson, should be able to mount the ftp with this then do the rsync? | 03:19 |
ubottu | wolflarson, should be able to mount the ftp with this then do the rsync?: curlftpfs (source: curlftpfs): filesystem to access FTP hosts based on FUSE and cURL. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.2-5ubuntu1 (saucy), package size 31 kB, installed size 101 kB | 03:19 |
Compaq | it shouldn't be going insane, its only an ATI RAGE graphics chip onboard | 03:20 |
Compaq | if anything it should haven't even loaded anything | 03:20 |
wolflarson | yes SchrodingersScat looks like that might work | 03:22 |
wolflarson | then cp will do the trick :) | 03:22 |
wolflarson | this is very good idea | 03:22 |
Compaq | as soon as it loads grub it goes "input not supported" on every monitor I have | 03:22 |
wolflarson | you so smart bro why you not take over from here ? | 03:22 |
seekncftpgethelp | Wow "—remove-source-file"! I never noticed that before. I will give it a try. Than you. | 03:22 |
Compaq | then when the OS loads the graphics goes insane | 03:23 |
Compaq | like switching modes constantly | 03:23 |
seekncftpgethelp | But i will also check curl. Thank you! | 03:23 |
SchrodingersScat | wolflarson: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:23 |

wolflarson | read bro pages? | 03:25 |
Compaq | I just want to play quake T_T | 03:25 |
Compaq | hahahah | 03:25 |
Compaq | If not I might have to install Windows (gasp) | 03:25 |
wolflarson | seekncftpgethelp: if you follow this then every time your computer boots it will mount your cam | 03:26 |
wolflarson | then you just need a cron as SchrodingersScat said that will rsync from one directory to the backup location | 03:26 |

rww | and every extra application on the default image is extra space used | 04:09 |
rww | and space is limited because it's theoretically supposed to fit on spinning media | 04:10 |
arul | hai | 04:10 |
qin | slinkeey: besides irc users are more fanatical about they clients than football fans about they clubs | 04:11 |
slinkeey | Okay | 04:11 |
slinkeey | Cool | 04:12 |
magicgod | cool I'm in mobile | 04:15 |
Ulag2222 | hi can anybody help me with a problem with unity? | 04:15 |
slinkeey | Well I am here for my real question... I have my touchpad turned up all the way and it is still not fast enough.. | 04:15 |
slinkeey | Is there a setting outside of the gui? | 04:15 |
Ulag2222 | hello¡? | 04:19 |

neo_ | Hello, I cannot get my Sound Blaster Recon3d to work on Ubuntu 13.10 x64. Any ideas? | 04:27 |

Ulag2222 | ?? | 04:32 |
neo_ | What's the problem? | 04:33 |
Ulag2222 | well unity option doesnt appears in login screen what can i do? | 04:33 |
neo_ | GUI doesn't show up? | 04:34 |
Ulag2222 | yes | 04:34 |
neo_ | only command line? | 04:34 |
Ulag2222 | but its installed completely | 04:34 |
neo_ | ok | 04:34 |
neo_ | type in startx and see what happens | 04:34 |
Ulag2222 | ok | 04:35 |
Ulag2222 | well .. | 04:36 |
neo_ | Did it work? | 04:36 |
Ulag2222 | and now what | 04:36 |
Ulag2222 | yes it brougt me to lxde interface, cud i had to install it to enter | 04:36 |
neo_ | are you able to see anything? Login? | 04:37 |
neo_ | GUI login that is. | 04:37 |
Ulag2222 | yes sure, it brings me to ¨another ¨ new lxde desktop | 04:37 |
neo_ | So I guess that answers your question? | 04:38 |
Ulag2222 | not really because its not entering to unity ok i dont know if explained correctly the things, for example whuen you are at the logn screen youre able to select lxde, openbox, gnome,... in this case i installed unityt bus the option doesnt appera | 04:41 |
Ulag2222 | appear* | 04:41 |
=== carlos is now known as KILL_TEH_NOIZE | ||
neo_ | are you using ubuntu 13.10? Ubuntu uses UNITY and they trademarked it. | 04:42 |
neo_ | at any rate | 04:43 |
neo_ | you might wanna download Ubuntu Unity Plugin. | 04:43 |
Ulag2222 | yes 13.10 but now after i installed gnome shell unity disasppearse, and then i purged gnome and unity but it had solved the problem | 04:43 |
Ulag2222 | compiz? | 04:44 |
neo_ | I am using compiz, yes. | 04:44 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | if i disable all of the unity internet searching lens options, and use synaptic to get rid of the un-used scopes, will that get rid of the spyware? | 04:44 |
neo_ | No idea. | 04:44 |
Ulag2222 | yes i have it , give me a sec im gonna open it | 04:44 |
Ulag2222 | ok im in the window of unity plugin | 04:45 |
neo_ | now | 04:46 |
neo_ | open Ubuntu Unity Plugin | 04:47 |
Ulag2222 | yes | 04:47 |
neo_ | and then | 04:47 |
Ulag2222 | and i have synaptic at the other side | 04:47 |
neo_ | on the left side, check "Enable Ubuntu Unity Plugin" | 04:47 |
Ulag2222 | ok | 04:47 |
neo_ | then u should be all set, hopefully that answers your question. | 04:47 |
Ulag2222 | ok im gonna try | 04:47 |
=== peter is now known as Guest56071 | ||
caskaid2 | anyone using network-manager-openvpn-gnome on 14.04 beta? | 04:49 |
neo_ | What's new on Ubuntu 14.04? Does it support Sound Blaster Recon3D? To answer your question, no. | 04:50 |
qin | KILL_TEH_NOIZE: by spyware you mean unity-scope-home? | 04:50 |
caskaid2 | neo_, just upgrades and minor improvements really | 04:50 |
Ulag2222 | man sorry but it didnt workde do you have any other idea | 04:50 |
caskaid2 | neo_, nothing spectacular that I see... I don't primarily use ubuntu however | 04:50 |
caskaid2 | no idea about soundblaster info... but that probably wouldn't be a ubuntu item, but rather a pulse or library support item | 04:51 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | i'm not sure honestly, i just heard unity had spyware so i've been trying to get rid of all of the internet serching in the dash board, so i guess that might be the home, but i'm not sure | 04:52 |
neo_ | ulag.. you're not able to see the unity bar on the left side of the screen? | 04:52 |
=== Abydon|Brb is now known as Abydon | ||
neo_ | Where all of the apps and shit are.. | 04:54 |
Ulag2222 | no because the login screen doesnt allow me to select unity in fact it doesnt appear but if i run it in terminal it starts | 04:54 |
neo_ | when you boot into ubuntu or during the installation did you accidentally select "run Ubuntu Command Line" or something like that? | 04:54 |
Ulag2222 | mm no i think so... but gnome shell changed the ubuntu charging screen | 04:55 |
neo_ | As a matter of fact, when I look at the login screen - it would not let me choose anything - it uses unity by default. I am suspecting you don't have accelerated graphic card, do you? Unity requires 3d card to run. | 04:55 |
daftykins | neo_: i appreciate you're helping but please keep language family friendly :) | 04:55 |
neo_ | Who? | 04:56 |
Ulag2222 | yea i have it | 04:56 |
neo_ | What kind of 3d card do you have? | 04:56 |
Ulag2222 | ATI radeon hd 5450 | 04:56 |
neo_ | That's old.. | 04:56 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | #rekt | 04:56 |
neo_ | but it should run nevertheless. | 04:57 |
Ulag2222 | hmm ok. | 04:57 |
qin | KILL_TEH_NOIZE: Using Gnome-Shell is elegant solution too. Or just disable scopes you do not really like: http://www.trotch.com/blog/disable-smart-scopes-in-ubuntu/ | 04:57 |
Ulag2222 | thats strange, why the login scren deleted the ubuntu option | 04:57 |
neo_ | I installed Ubuntu 13.10 by default.. I didn't chose which interface I wanted. | 04:57 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | yeah, but gnome 3 just isn't my thing right now, i switched to ubuntu because i was running gnome 2, then went on to xfce4, now i love unity | 04:58 |
Ulag2222 | right me too | 04:58 |
neo_ | did u download the image from ubuntu's website? | 04:58 |
qin | KILL_TEH_NOIZE: then there is "classic" | 04:58 |
Ulag2222 | okok listen i installed gnome shell before the installation | 04:58 |
neo_ | ah | 04:59 |
Ulag2222 | yes i have downloaded it from the official website | 04:59 |
neo_ | That's the problem. | 04:59 |
neo_ | I think you overwritten the shell interface. | 04:59 |
neo_ | You might want to reinstall unbuntu without gnome shell you speak of. | 04:59 |
neo_ | That should solve your issue. | 04:59 |
Ulag2222 | reinstall? o man.. | 05:00 |
Ulag2222 | can i fix that from synaptic? | 05:00 |
Ulag2222 | or is to difficult | 05:00 |
neo_ | probably not. | 05:00 |
aki__ | So I mucked up my main account; whatever unity or compiz settings are causing unity to not start properly, and I can't even open a terminal | 05:00 |
aki__ | how can I set it back to default | 05:00 |
aki__ | ? | 05:00 |
neo_ | open compiz | 05:01 |
neo_ | then go to | 05:01 |
neo_ | Ubuntu Unity Plugin | 05:01 |
neo_ | then tick "Enable Ubuntu Unity Plugin" | 05:01 |
Ulag2222 | i tried purging lots and lots of libraries but it didnt worked | 05:01 |
neo_ | reinstall is your best bet. | 05:01 |
Ulag2222 | hmm ok | 05:02 |
neo_ | don't install anything before installing ubuntu 13.10 | 05:02 |
Ulag2222 | ok | 05:02 |
Ulag2222 | is there an app to backup the sistem not dejadup | 05:02 |
neo_ | I am not familiar with Linux backup system. | 05:03 |
Ulag2222 | hmm ok | 05:03 |
sam_ | ok I got a question. I need to start skype through terminal I start it but then when I close terminal skype closes aswell :( how do I keep it open without having a terminal page open all the time? | 05:03 |
neo_ | I think that's because skype relies on the terminal to run the program | 05:03 |
neo_ | you kill the terminal, and it kills the subprocess - skype itself. | 05:03 |
IcemanV9 | !backup Ulag2222 | 05:03 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | @sam_ press ctrl + c while skype is opened from the terminal, see if that works | 05:03 |
IcemanV9 | !backup | 05:04 |
ubottu | There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 05:04 |
sam_ | normaly the command is on my startup but when it crashes I have to open it through termina | 05:04 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | if that doesn't then there isn't really a way | 05:04 |
Ulag2222 | is there a form or app to delete all done | 05:04 |
sam_ | so neo do you know how I can run skype from terminal but without making it dependant on it? | 05:05 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | @sam_ make a new tab in the terminal i guess | 05:05 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | @sam_ why do you need to open it in terminal though? | 05:05 |
qin | !nohup | sam_ | 05:05 |
sam_ | I use two skype account in ubuntu so can't open the second one directly (skype --dbpath=~/.Skype.first) | 05:06 |
=== od is now known as Guest97927 | ||
qin | sam_: you can: nohup skype; or Ctrl-z and detach %1; or maybe run skype in screen | 05:06 |
neo_ | M$ bought skype, so don't expect any support for Linux anytime soon. | 05:08 |
sam_ | awesome thanks qin . nohub worked | 05:08 |
dw1 | neo_: wut http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-linux/ | 05:09 |
sam_ | skype works fine on ubuntu 12.4 | 05:09 |
neo_ | im using 13.10 | 05:10 |
sam_ | there are sip alternatives for skype but they are hard to setup | 05:10 |
neo_ | like what? | 05:10 |
sam_ | ekiga | 05:10 |
caskaid2 | I never thought of ekiga as being difficult to setup | 05:10 |
qin | neo_: acctualy since skype got owned by ms you may expect to not run atavistic version anymore. | 05:11 |
caskaid2 | and that was 3 years ago | 05:11 |
neo_ | hrmm.. | 05:11 |
kostkon | qin, ? | 05:11 |
neo_ | Microsoft is becoming a problem.. | 05:11 |
sam_ | i do as instruction asks me to but then it gives me an error that the other guy is offline while the other guy is my other computer and is infact online | 05:11 |
qin | kostkon: oh, well... apparently 12.04 is latest Ubuntu from Microsoft point of view | 05:12 |
neo_ | 14.04 just got out of beta.. | 05:13 |
neo_ | looks great to me. | 05:13 |
sam_ | to: caskaid2 do you know any free sip that work for ekiga? | 05:13 |
caskaid2 | sam_, hmm don't ever really remember having issues. | 05:13 |
kostkon | qin, what?? they mean 12.04+ skype is in the 13.10 repos anyways, if you enable the partner repo | 05:13 |
caskaid2 | sam_, i used the original guide they had. Granted, this was 2-3 years ago. | 05:13 |
SeaSki | There is too damn many sparkling wiggles at this party | 05:13 |
caskaid2 | didn't have a problem with their recommendation that they had on their site | 05:13 |
sam_ | caskaid2_, it keeps telling me user not found | 05:14 |
sam_ | caskaid2_, it supports voice and webcam right?? or its just voice? | 05:15 |
leodebordo33 | hello ! | 05:15 |
david_ | exit | 05:15 |
david_ | :-) | 05:15 |
caskaid2 | sam_, weird... I wonder if there's some internal networking conflicting... as in, it not liking both accounts on same networking | 05:15 |
caskaid2 | sam_, yes | 05:15 |
caskaid2 | sam_, voice and webcam. And from what I remember the voice quality was lightyears ahead of skype when i last used it. | 05:16 |
caskaid2 | sam, let me install and test.. | 05:16 |
=== LiKE2HelPU is now known as Like2HlpU-Laptop | ||
sam_ | caskaid2_, wish we could go through installation together if you still have it | 05:17 |
sam_ | caskaid2_,and have time for it | 05:17 |
neo_ | egh.. my webcam is ugly. VLC can do it better. | 05:17 |
caskaid2 | sam_, I honestly don't remember it being complicated. I remember having to sign up for an account through whoever they recommended on their website | 05:18 |
sam_ | caskaid2_, ok will try to find a solution for it online thanks though. | 05:19 |
sam_ | caskaid2_,its good to know there is an actual alternative for skype | 05:19 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | airckrack -ng | 05:20 |
caskaid2 | sam_, there's actually something better in the works in my opinion | 05:20 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | my bad | 05:20 |
caskaid2 | sam_, look up Tox | 05:21 |
neo_ | What is the alternative skype you're speaking thereof? | 05:21 |
caskaid2 | Tox | 05:21 |
neo_ | linky? | 05:21 |
caskaid2 | wait... | 05:22 |
caskaid2 | that's not it | 05:22 |
caskaid2 | one sec | 05:22 |
caskaid2 | wrong tab open haha | 05:22 |
neo_ | http://wiki.tox.im/Main_Page | 05:22 |
neo_ | Its a pidgin plugin? | 05:22 |
caskaid2 | http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1yhp9a/tox_a_free_as_in_freedom_skype_replacement/ | 05:23 |
caskaid2 | it's just a back-end protocal so it has multiple front-ends | 05:24 |
neo_ | https://tox.im/ | 05:25 |
caskaid2 | I still continue to use skype for linux for a few clients... | 05:25 |
caskaid2 | people use it so... | 05:25 |
caskaid2 | neo_, yup | 05:25 |
caskaid2 | good stuff right there | 05:26 |
sam_ | they are all nightly build | 05:26 |
sam_ | stable enough? | 05:26 |
caskaid2 | like I said, not completed | 05:26 |
caskaid2 | but most promising in my opinion, and they make some rapid progress. | 05:27 |
caskaid2 | I first looked at them several months ago, and i don't even think they had an alpha at that point | 05:27 |
caskaid2 | probably wont be super stable, but I imagine it's usable. Granted I don't find Skype for linux stable whatsoever | 05:28 |
neo_ | Skype doesn't have encrypted communication protocol for both chat and video, unlike Venom/Tox, no? | 05:28 |
caskaid2 | neo_, to my knowledge correct | 05:28 |
neo_ | Tox supports video chat?. | 05:29 |
caskaid2 | Personally, I prefer gchat video plugin in chrome/firefox to skype for linux. Most people have that anyway | 05:29 |
caskaid2 | neo_, yes | 05:29 |
=== Abydon is now known as SleepingTheNight | ||
caskaid2 | it does support video | 05:29 |
neo_ | but it's not encrypted anyways. | 05:29 |
=== SleepingTheNight is now known as A|Asleep | ||
neo_ | for skype that is | 05:29 |
caskaid2 | neo_, correct. Which is why tox is very promising | 05:29 |
caskaid2 | neo_, tox literally happened post-snowden from what I could tell. OR was in it's infancy just prior | 05:30 |
neo_ | I notice everytime I start any apps, it goes on the top-left corner.. it's annoying. How do I fix that? I suspect compiz is to blame.. correct me if I am wrong. | 05:30 |
neo_ | indeed | 05:31 |
neo_ | I use boxcryptor to store senstitive information on Google Drive, or use File Encryption System via TrueCrypt. Either way. | 05:31 |
kostkon | neo_, what goes there? | 05:32 |
neo_ | anything | 05:32 |
neo_ | like for example | 05:32 |
neo_ | if I start a terminal, it starts GUI on the top-left of the screen, not center. | 05:32 |
kostkon | neo_, oh | 05:32 |
neo_ | I have to press alt and drag it to the center. | 05:32 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | try ctrl+alt+t and see if there is a error that sais something like "setLocationRelativeTo(null)" | 05:33 |
neo_ | sec | 05:34 |
neo_ | no error message | 05:34 |
neo_ | I won't be able to drag it back unless I press alt mouse | 05:35 |
Guest97927 | i have an almost new toshiba laptop that ubuntu runs perfect on. i have 3d games xbmc and others running perfect. windows 7 will not run at all. locks up blue screen of death. popping from speakers. even new factory fresh install wont run. | 05:35 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | oh, did any terminal pop up? | 05:35 |
neo_ | nope | 05:35 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | hmm, what desktop enviornment are you running? If it's what i'm thinking it is, it could be that it is iconized | 05:35 |
neo_ | Unity | 05:35 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | nvm | 05:36 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | it's not that | 05:36 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | so what exactly happends neo_? | 05:36 |
neo_ | the problem started when I fiddle around with compiz. | 05:36 |
daftykins | Guest97927: that makes zero sense | 05:36 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | did you try to restore everything to default neo_? | 05:36 |
caskaid2 | neo_, I think that's default. Mine does that with gnome, though I'm on 14.04 | 05:36 |
neo_ | Yeah. | 05:36 |
neo_ | caskaid2 how's 14.04? | 05:36 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | wait did 14.04 final release? | 05:37 |
caskaid2 | neo_, good | 05:37 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, no | 05:37 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | oh | 05:37 |
caskaid2 | I've been running it for past month | 05:37 |
neo_ | beta 3 | 05:37 |
neo_ | errm | 05:37 |
neo_ | 2 | 05:37 |
neo_ | 14.04 supports the latest creative sound card or no? | 05:37 |
slice | hey | 05:37 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, I always run 1-2 months their first build of latest | 05:37 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | so can someone tell me how i can reply directly to someone, so it'll be bold red on their screen | 05:37 |

ubottu | caskaid2 so what is it like: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 05:38 |
sam_ | guess I'm really liking tox. does it notify you when somone logs in or logs off like skype does? | 05:38 |
bazhang | mintled, not on topic here | 05:38 |
neo_ | Sigh.. it's a PITA to configure Sound Blaster Recon3D. | 05:38 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | oh kk | 05:38 |
mintled | ok | 05:38 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid, how is it? | 05:38 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, not much different. Gnome is updated to 3.10 | 05:38 |

KILL_TEH_NOIZE | ah, OH did anyone hear about java 8 coming out in a few days? | 05:39 |
neo_ | sam_, yes | 05:39 |
neo_ | neo_, test | 05:39 |
caskaid2 | sam_, it's still in beta, if not alpha | 05:39 |
neo_ | did it do it right? | 05:39 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, im running java 8 | 05:39 |
neo_ | I don't see the red bold myself.. | 05:39 |
caskaid2 | it thought it's out | 05:39 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2, what's it like, did they make any changes in the programming language? | 05:39 |
sam_ | caskaid2: it looks very stable though | 05:39 |
caskaid2 | sam_, yes it appears that way | 05:40 |
neo_ | When is the TBD date for 14.04? | 05:40 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, programming language? which? | 05:40 |
caskaid2 | ! 14.04 release schedule | 05:40 |
ubottu | caskaid2: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:40 |
caskaid2 | worthless bot | 05:40 |
caskaid2 | can't even do a simple query | 05:40 |
sam_ | neo_: thanks for info about tab I didn't know | 05:40 |
caskaid2 | neo_, 17th | 05:40 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | neo_, idk but they release every 6 months | 05:40 |
neo_ | caskaid2, April? (did you see the red bold font now?) | 05:41 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2, Java, did the update effect the language at all? | 05:41 |
caskaid2 | neo_, yes April and yes | 05:41 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, no idea. Haven't noticed any differences. I believe I'm using that on my Funtoo machine as well | 05:41 |
neo_ | Interesting.. how do I upgrade from 13.10 via terminal? apt-get update? | 05:41 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, this is Oracle java btw | 05:41 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2, yeah i know, gentoo was my first linux OS because i fell for all the /g/ tards saying "install gentoo" | 05:42 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | i was trolled hard | 05:42 |
caskaid2 | neo_, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:42 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, it's honestly not so bad | 05:42 |
neo_ | caskaid2, ah ok. | 05:43 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, just a different mentality. I very much like the control | 05:43 |
bazhang | dist-upgrade will not change versions caskaid2 | 05:43 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2, yeah, but for me the installation was hell, i had to use a so much tutorials. But yeah the Free As In Freedom is great too | 05:43 |
neo_ | What's Wine for? To play Windows PC game on it? | 05:43 |
caskaid2 | bazhang, yes that's step 1 | 05:43 |
caskaid2 | :p | 05:43 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | neo_, wine runs windows applications, but honestly it doesn't work the best | 05:43 |
caskaid2 | neo_, sudo update-manager -d | 05:44 |
RahulAN | Hii all | 05:44 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | RahulAN, hello there :) | 05:44 |
RahulAN | Can we install candy crush over ubuntu? | 05:44 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, it's much easier now, they don't even use stage 1 anymore | 05:44 |
neo_ | You mean peppermint? | 05:44 |
neo_ | LinuxMint is 200% friendly for newbs. | 05:44 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2, i'm gonna check that out now | 05:44 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, it IS for people who know what they are doing, however I recommend Funtoo over Gentoo | 05:45 |
RahulAN | is it possible | 05:45 |
RahulAN | ? | 05:45 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, basically gentoo, but managed via Git | 05:45 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2, ah | 05:45 |
neo_ | Candy Crush as for Linux distro or a game? | 05:45 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, daniel robbins "who made gentoo" left to make Funtoo | 05:45 |
RahulAN | neo_, game.. | 05:45 |
neo_ | doh | 05:46 |
neo_ | ok | 05:46 |
neo_ | lol | 05:46 |
RahulAN | neo_, for ubuntu.. | 05:46 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2, why'd he leave? | 05:46 |
neo_ | bah, not my style. | 05:46 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, "politics" | 05:46 |
neo_ | I have to admit tho: LinuxMint is even more user friendly than Ubuntu.. just saying. | 05:46 |
caskaid2 | KILL_TEH_NOIZE, he's a good guy, just wanted to move on to a new project. Felt that that was the best way | 05:47 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | caskaid2m, that sounds like something a FOSS supporter would do(not that FOSS is bad). | 05:47 |
bazhang | lets get back to ubuntu support please | 05:47 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | bazhang, my bad | 05:47 |
neo_ | WTF. My Time Warner is now 71.00 | 05:47 |
neo_ | 55 for reg cable, 10.00 for turbo, 5.00 for modem rental. | 05:48 |
neo_ | SMH. | 05:48 |
caskaid2 | neo_, buy a Docsis 3 modem | 05:48 |
caskaid2 | and don't have to pay that rental fee | 05:48 |
neo_ | yeah.. seriously 5.00 a month.. wth | 05:48 |
caskaid2 | or hell even a docsis 2 if you're not above 25mbps or whatever it is | 05:48 |
neo_ | Yeah.. my max speed is 3.0 MBP/s dl | 05:49 |
neo_ | more like 2.1 MBP/s | 05:49 |
caskaid2 | neo_, that's more than 48Mbps | 05:49 |
caskaid2 | so you'd need version 3 | 05:49 |
neo_ | Alias, Comcast is planning to buy Time Warner. SMH. | 05:49 |
caskaid2 | err well.. right at that mark | 05:50 |
caskaid2 | but yeah you'd want version 3 anyway | 05:50 |
neo_ | I ahve UBEE U10C18 | 05:50 |
neo_ | small b is confusing, I stick with capitalized "B". ISP is doing this on purpose to confuse customers. | 05:51 |
caskaid2 | neo_, well everyone measures in "bits" data centers, etc. | 05:51 |
* neo_ shrugs | 05:52 | |
neo_ | Which sound cards have Linux support? | 05:52 |
neo_ | for both 32 and 64 bit? Besides Creative Labs? | 05:52 |
caskaid2 | no idea, don't use a physical card | 05:53 |
neo_ | realtek should do. | 05:54 |
neo_ | :\ | 05:54 |
neo_ | So what happens to NSA right now? Are they being scrutinized for the damages they have done since Snowden left? | 05:55 |
cfhowlett | neo_ offtopic - nothing to do with ubuntu. | 05:56 |
neo_ | :( | 05:56 |

PatBateman | hi | 06:00 |
PatBateman | if I isntall the current version of 14.04, can I easily upgrade to final version if its released? | 06:01 |
PatBateman | *install | 06:01 |
cfhowlett | !final|PatBateman | 06:01 |
ubottu | PatBateman: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Trusty and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 14.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. | 06:01 |
PatBateman | thank you cfhowlett :) | 06:01 |
PatBateman | i hope it'll have better NVidia optimus support in this version | 06:02 |
neo_ | ubottu, WOOF! WOOF! | 06:03 |
cfhowlett | neo_ do you have an actual support question? | 06:03 |
sam_ | caskaid2: are you sure tox supports webcam or even sound ? I can't find any call button on gui | 06:03 |
neo_ | cfhowlett, sorry, I wasn't sure if ubottu is a human, a bot, or both. | 06:03 |
bazhang | neo_, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic Please | 06:04 |
neo_ | sam_, you have to add a user and then initiate a call from there. I think. | 06:04 |
neo_ | bazhang, I am aware of that. Thank you. | 06:04 |
mintled | Will Ubunto allow you to download porn? | 06:04 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | mintled, XD | 06:05 |
neo_ | mintled, yes. | 06:05 |
neo_ | redtube.com | 06:05 |
neo_ | simple | 06:05 |
neo_ | ;) | 06:05 |
KILL_TEH_NOIZE | yo guys subscribe to my youji- i mean youtube channel | 06:06 |
cfhowlett | !spam|KILL_TEH_NOIZE | 06:06 |
ubottu | KILL_TEH_NOIZE: Please don't spam | 06:06 |
sam_ | I did add a user but still nothing | 06:06 |
sam_ | added my other ubuntu | 06:06 |
sam_ | neo_: <sam_> I did add a user but still nothing [23:06] <sam_> added my other ubuntu | 06:06 |
cfhowlett | sam_ neo was kicked out. restate your details | 06:07 |
sam_ | any neo alt back in I asked a question please find me | 06:08 |
sam_ | cfhowlett: we were talking about a software (Tox) its skype alternative | 06:08 |
cfhowlett | sam_ sorry, I've never used it ... | 06:09 |
caskaid2 | sam_, it might not be present yet. Again, this app is very new | 06:09 |
caskaid2 | on the about page it appears to be a feature they are implementing if they haven't already | 06:10 |
cxc | Hello | 06:10 |
cfhowlett | cxc greetings. what is your ubuntu issue? | 06:11 |
cxc | I'm trying to figure out a DNS setup where if the internet is up it allows passthrough but it'f it's down it will take condtional URLs as the local server | 06:11 |
sam_ | Neozonz|Discx2: are you neo? | 06:11 |
cxc | Greetings cfhowlett ! | 06:12 |
cxc | a caching DNS should take the Domain information and pass it along unless it doesn't know it and then passes the request to a more knoweldegeable source | 06:15 |
cxc | I'm trying to ignore that for certain URLS so that it returns the information from a server on the same computer as the DNS server | 06:16 |
PatBateman | cfhowlett: if I install 14.04 how can I switch from Unify to Gnome3? afaik gnome3 is installed by default | 06:16 |
PatBateman | *Unity | 06:16 |
caskaid | PatBateman, it's not default | 06:17 |
caskaid | PatBateman, just install gnome3 separately, and you can switch on login screen | 06:17 |
PatBateman | its not the default, but installed as i read | 06:17 |
cfhowlett | PatBateman unit is the default. sudo apt-get install gnome will get you the desktop environment ONLY. for the full gnome experience, sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop | 06:17 |
cfhowlett | *gnome3* | 06:17 |
PatBateman | thanks both guys | 06:18 |
cfhowlett | PatBateman or the way: install ubuntu-gnome | 06:18 |
PatBateman | yeah I know that version | 06:18 |
PatBateman | apt --help | 06:20 |
PatBateman | ah sorry | 06:20 |
PatBateman | my refined question is, will I have gnome 3.10 if I install it with the above suggested commands? I know that "GNOME Shell 3.10 has landed in the Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Tahr repositories" | 06:24 |
cfhowlett | PatBateman don't know - ask in #ubuntu+1 | 06:24 |
PatBateman | okay right | 06:24 |
cxc | PatBateman: apt-cache policy <packagename> | 06:24 |

dnull | gtg srry | 06:33 |
caskaid | PatBateman, that's assuming you're on the 1404 beta with proper package sources | 06:34 |
PatBateman | caskaid: and your suggestion, installing a beta or daily build? if I want install it eg. today | 06:34 |
tarelerulz | I'm running code:Block 12.11 and I try loading my few lines of code and the program goes grey . One of the cpu is at 100%. What should I do | 06:34 |

dnull | cxc: nothing happened only this | 06:39 |
PatBateman | caskaid: if I have a win8/ubuntu dualboot now, possibly will remain all the same as was before right? I want to "overwrite" the current ubuntu partition | 06:39 |

ikonia | if you want help - ask for help, if you want to make a drama - do it elsewhere | 07:11 |
Daskreech | dnull: does ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ give you anything ? | 07:11 |
Daskreech | soa2ii: They probably meant #ubuntu+1 | 07:11 |
dnull | Daskreech: is that a i or 1 in Is or 1s? LOL | 07:12 |
Daskreech | dnull: L S but common | 07:13 |
dnull | ?? | 07:13 |
Daskreech | you can copy and paste the commands I can put them in <> if it makes it easier | 07:13 |
Daskreech | <ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 07:13 |

dnull | i cant copy past with this | 07:14 |
dnull | right click in this | 07:14 |
ikonia | then type it | 07:14 |
dnull | i can paste just not copy | 07:14 |
ikonia | dnull: come on - get on with it | 07:14 |
ikonia | type the command out | 07:15 |
dnull | Is is a 1,I, what? | 07:15 |
bazhang | L | 07:15 |
ikonia | dnull: you've been told a lower case L | 07:15 |
bazhang | although cat would work | 07:15 |
ikonia | bazhang: it's a directory | 07:16 |
Daskreech | bazhang: cat works on a directory? | 07:16 |
bazhang | we wanted to see the sources.lst ikonia | 07:16 |
ikonia | no, it was the sources.list.d directory he was asked to do - although why, I have no idea | 07:16 |
bazhang | I'm well aware its a dir ikonia | 07:17 |
dnull | Daskreech:playonlinux.list ubuntu-wine-ppa-precise.list | 07:17 |
dnull | playonlinux.list.save ubuntu-wine-ppa-precise.list.save | 07:17 |
ikonia | there we go..... | 07:17 |
ikonia | load of junk ppa's | 07:17 |
dnull | ikonia: !patience | 07:18 |
Daskreech | ikonia, bazhang: dnull has http://paste.ubuntu.com/7211163 as sources.list but can't seem to update due to playonlinux sources so wanted to see what third party repos were preventing the installation of Wine | 07:18 |
daftykins | there's stuff in sources.list.d/ as well | 07:19 |
dnull | ikonia: !chill | 07:19 |
rww | dnull: that's probably not helping | 07:19 |
daftykins | dnull: have you done any OS upgrades or is this a clean install? | 07:19 |
dnull | daftykins: it a chromebook i got ubuntu through terminal | 07:20 |
dnull | u can only et linux on chromebook | 07:20 |
dnull | get* | 07:20 |
daftykins | yeah i'm familiar | 07:20 |
daftykins | is it chrubuntu? | 07:20 |
dnull | took me n hour to get os installed now takin days to get it fixed | 07:21 |
dnull | no | 07:21 |
daftykins | there's one that runs out of a chroot and one that installs properly | 07:21 |
dnull | crouton | 07:21 |
dnull | i used crouton | 07:21 |
daftykins | yeah crouton is the chroot one | 07:21 |
dnull | Daskreech: sooooooo now what? | 07:22 |
daftykins | did you add playsonlinux yourself? | 07:22 |
dnull | and im having nightmares with flash too | 07:22 |
Daskreech | bazhang: would you happen to know if bind can be configured to do conditional answeres based on the network status? | 07:22 |
bazhang | Daskreech, yes my apologies | 07:22 |
bazhang | I misread the situation | 07:23 |
dnull | daftykins:THAT wont install either! | 07:23 |
dnull | or i would have gotten it | 07:23 |
daftykins | dnull: you're not answering my question | 07:23 |
daftykins | did you add its' PPAs yourself? | 07:23 |
dnull | How would i add it if i cant? what do u mean | 07:23 |
dnull | its says error needs wine:i386 | 07:24 |
daftykins | PPAs are places to get packages, one adds those before attempting to install software from them | 07:24 |
dnull | how do i get the ppa | 07:24 |
daftykins | you would've followed some form of guide that said to run some commands such as "sudo add-apt-repository..." | 07:25 |
dnull | srry bro like i said im a neeb | 07:25 |
dnull | noob | 07:25 |
daftykins | so you should remember that if you did do so yourself | 07:25 |
daftykins | or maybe the playsonlinux PPAs are just part of crouton | 07:25 |
ikonia | just re-install and be more careful in fuure | 07:25 |
dnull | i just went to USC and clicked install | 07:25 |
ikonia | future | 07:25 |
dnull | and it didnt work | 07:25 |
Daskreech | bazhang: Is that yes based on dnull's situation or on my inquiry ? | 07:26 |
dnull | im NOT going in that pain of installing this again! | 07:26 |
ikonia | dnull: re-install ubuntu cleanly on your netbook - and be more careful in future about installing 3rd party software | 07:26 |
bazhang | Daskreech, the former | 07:26 |
Daskreech | bazhang: drat :) | 07:26 |
dnull | ikonia: 3rd party software? and who said it was a netbook? | 07:26 |
dnull | im NOT installing it again | 07:27 |
ikonia | dnull: you did, you said it was a chromebook, | 07:27 |
dnull | yeah, and theres a difference between the 2 | 07:27 |
ikonia | fine - enjoy using your broken laptop/netbook that you refuse to re-install on | 07:27 |
ikonia | either way, still broken | 07:27 |
ikonia | either way you've messed up your repos with 3rd party software sources | 07:28 |
dnull | its not broken | 07:28 |
ikonia | so your choises are a.) fix it - which a clean install for your level of ability will be quickest b.) use a broken OS | 07:28 |
dnull | and why are u being a jerk? | 07:28 |
dnull | be NICE | 07:28 |

dnull | Daskreech: um does having a 32bit affect anythig? | 07:29 |
Daskreech | dnull: mkdir ~/oldrepos && mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ~/oldrepos && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine | 07:29 |
Daskreech | dnull: no | 07:29 |
dnull | all in one line? | 07:30 |
ikonia | dnull: you have repos installed that are not default - they also have a .save extensions suggesting you've done upgrades/changes | 07:30 |
dnull | yeah crouton GIVES U NOTHING | 07:30 |
ikonia | that suggests software from these repos has been installed at some point which will make the state of your machine questionable going forward | 07:30 |
Daskreech | dnull: yes | 07:30 |
ikonia | so the safest way to get you to a known good way is to re-install, because a.) we can't trust what you say as it conflictts with the status b.) we don't know what's been/installed/not installed c.) you are new to ubuntu so fixing this would be quite tricky | 07:31 |
rww | Daskreech: mv needs sudo too | 07:31 |
ikonia | the best way to resolve this cleanly is to install a trusted/clean install of ubuntu and move forward helping you from that | 07:31 |
Daskreech | rww: thanks | 07:31 |
Daskreech | dnull: mkdir ~/oldrepos && sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ~/oldrepos && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine | 07:32 |
dnull | here is what came up:mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/dhruv/oldrepos': File exists | 07:35 |
dnull | ugh ubuntu isnt soooo good for me right now :( | 07:36 |
dnull | Anyone comming to the rescue? xD | 07:37 |
ikonia | you're getting help | 07:37 |
ikonia | you're just either not following the information correctly, or you're still at a level where you are making mistakes following the insructions | 07:37 |
ikonia | which again goes back to getting you to a trusted state - which a clean install of the correct ubuntu version you want to use would be the quickest method | 07:38 |
dnull | uhh look if youre gonna criticize me u can shut up couse im doing NOTHING wrong | 07:38 |
ikonia | I'm not criticizing you - I'm stating fact, you are being given things to do / asking for information and it's not coming back with the right information, there is nothing wrong with being new to linux, but it will limit your abilities to resolve issues, such as this one | 07:39 |
daftykins | dnull: follow what Daskreech said but skip out from the start unti after the && | 07:39 |
daftykins | *until | 07:39 |
daftykins | so start from 'sudo mv...' | 07:40 |
dnull | k thanks dafty | 07:40 |
dnull | saying no such file or directory | 07:42 |
Daskreech | dnull: that's ok take out the mkdir section of the command to the first && | 07:43 |
dnull | thats what i did | 07:43 |
Daskreech | dnull: ls ~/oldrepos | 07:44 |
Daskreech | does that give you a response ? | 07:44 |
Daskreech | actually better question | 07:44 |
Daskreech | does ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ give you anything ? | 07:44 |
dnull | first one not anything | 07:44 |
dnull | second one..... | 07:45 |
Daskreech | dnull: playonlinux ? | 07:45 |
dnull | thats what i was gonna suggest to try | 07:45 |
Daskreech | dnull: sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ~/oldrepos | 07:45 |
dnull | when i try t get that, heres what comes up: | 07:46 |
dnull | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 07:46 |
dnull | playonlinux: Depends: wine-unstable but it is not going to be installed | 07:46 |
dnull | Depends: x-terminal-emulator but it is a virtual package | 07:46 |

dnull | playonlinux: Depends: wine-unstable but it is not going to be installed | 07:47 |
dnull | Depends: x-terminal-emulator but it is a virtual package | 07:47 |
dnull | well thanks for trying all i gtg now | 07:47 |
Daskreech | dnull: that's what apt-get install wine does? | 07:48 |
dnull | no play on linux | 07:48 |
dnull | Daskreech: play on linux | 07:48 |
daftykins | that's not what Daskreech asked you to do :< | 07:48 |
dnull | we moved to playonlinux | 07:48 |
daftykins | no you misunderstood | 07:49 |
Daskreech | dnull: I'm trying to remove that since it's what is blocking you. If you want that you should purge all the configs for it and start over | 07:49 |
dnull | u mean........ | 07:49 |
daftykins | dnull: ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 07:49 |
dnull | how do i remove it? | 07:50 |
Daskreech | dnull: what does ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ say? | 07:50 |
Daskreech | is it empty or does it return something ? | 07:51 |

mrtye | Han_nibal: You accuse Mr | 08:17 |
Han_nibal | i just need help that's it | 08:18 |
cfhowlett | Han_nibal state your question | 08:18 |

Han_nibal | rww: thanks, ubuntu won't start and show me this "an error occurred while mounting /." | 08:20 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: in this case the system should give you an emergency shell. do you have a shell prompt (initrd) or something? | 08:22 |
cfhowlett | Han_nibal http://www.queryinn.com/index.php/2010/12/ubuntu-an-error-occurred-while-mounting-sda-drive/ | 08:22 |
LetErikTry | does the standard not include package selection or did I miss it? | 08:23 |

cfhowlett | LetErikTry what package? | 08:24 |
Han_nibal | yes i can access a shell while show'n me this message, and now i use ubuntu live | 08:24 |
LetErikTry | package selection ... like other distros when u install, u get to choose whats installed | 08:25 |

Ben64 | Han_nibal: so you have the livecd in now? pastebin the output of "sudo blkid" | 08:34 |

Han_nibal | so i delete this line ? | 08:38 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: well, then the content of /boot will be missing in the booted system. | 08:39 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: and you will need /boot to be mounted when a kernel update happens | 08:39 |
Ben64 | Han_nibal: try mounting your root partition. "sudo mkdir /mnt/slash; sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb3 /mnt/slash" | 08:39 |

* kdz waits patiently to ask his question | 08:41 | |

Ben64 | kdz: just ask, you'll never get an answer without a question | 08:41 |
POVaddct | Ben64: oh, you are right. i missed that | 08:41 |
kdz | so like i setup a ipv6 tunnel to be able to watch netflix over it but its not working. who can advise ? | 08:41 |
kdz | the tunnel seems to be working when i got to a ipv6 test website | 08:42 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: btw, in the blkid output i see a filesystem label "h4ck" set for sda3. do you remember setting that label? | 08:46 |

stalin_mario | Is it normal for a directory created in /var/run to vanish upon a reboot ? | 08:53 |
POVaddct | stalin_mario: yes, /var/run is a tmpfs (ramdisk) | 08:53 |
Han_nibal | for trying to mounting my root partition, must do it in the live or emergency shell ? | 08:53 |
PatBateman | so when I reinstall Ubuntu and I want restore my ssh settings (eg. auto ssh into server) I just need to backup $HOME/.ssh folder? | 08:54 |
stalin_mario | POVaddct: I see, where would be a good place to store pid files running under a restricted user ? | 08:54 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: you can do that in the live system | 08:54 |
POVaddct | stalin_mario: why would you want to keep pid files across a reboot? | 08:54 |
[Gentoo] | PatBateman: yes | 08:55 |
Han_nibal | ok i did it | 08:55 |
[Gentoo] | PatBateman: you might as well backup /home and /etc and pick out configs | 08:55 |
stalin_mario | not the files just the dir and I have no permissions to create pid files under /var/run (service not running as root) | 08:55 |
[Gentoo] | in case you forget something | 08:55 |
PatBateman | [Gentoo]: yes I do :) | 08:55 |
PatBateman | ty | 08:55 |
POVaddct | stalin_mario: i don't think there is a standard location for that. you could try creating /run/shm/, but that dir is not really intended for storing pid files. | 08:57 |
stalin_mario | POVaddct: ok I'll give that a shot ! Thx :) | 08:58 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: the fstab you already pasted is the one on sdb3? | 08:58 |
Han_nibal | yeah | 08:59 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: okay. we still need to find the /boot partition. | 09:00 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: in the mounted sdb3 partition, is there something in boot/ ? | 09:01 |
Han_nibal | yeah there a lot of files | 09:03 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: so maybe you don't have a separate partition for /boot at all. but the fstab entry is referring to one, with UUID 0501a9da-162e-4a9c-b85d-30ad78517a25. | 09:04 |
Han_nibal | so / and /boot are in the same partition ? | 09:06 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: it seems so, if you have a bunch of vmlinuz* and initrd* files in boot/ | 09:07 |
Han_nibal | yeah, like i said a lot of files, much version of vmlinuz* and initrd* | 09:09 |
POVaddct | Han_nibal: try commenting out the line "UUID=0501a9da-162e-4a9c-b85d-30ad78517a25 /boot ext4 defaults 0 2". it is not the root filesystem (/) though. | 09:12 |
Han_nibal | ok, did it | 09:15 |
=== einar__ is now known as EinarLathe | ||
POVaddct | Han_nibal: i am not sure if that fixed it. you can try booting the installed system. if you still get the emergency shell, try to manually mount the root filesystem: mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb3 /root and write down error messages if there are any | 09:19 |

acesbatman | hello, I am having an issue with my install, ubuntu been having many issues, and so I ran fwts like suggested on some forums, and the report showed some failures in my ACPI, and DSDT. Now, I just formatted and re-install Xubuntu to see if the newest LTS would resolve the issues, but I am not sure if it has. I know when I boot up every time since I have started using Ubuntu, there is a K10 thermals unreliable message I get all the time on boot. | 11:57 |
bekks | Or you have to write an udev rule granting access to the user. | 11:57 |
bng | bekks: udev rule, I did that with partitions | 11:58 |

Zelgod | i had dualboot working with ubuntu, however i needed to reinstall. When i chose the reinstall option it did the entire drive whiping the windows 8 installation, currently i have ubuntu working. | 12:02 |

Zelgod | Thats understood. So the only option is whiping the ubuntu installation then using windows? | 12:06 |

Zelgod | Ubuntu is using the entire drive in lvm so i have a feeling id having to remove the ubuntu partition since i cannot resize the phsyical drive. | 12:08 |

dioioib | what is the question | 13:08 |
tim167 | OerHeks: although, it's not about the Linaro ubuntu, but the Ubuntu Studio UDOO image, which is not the same i guess... | 13:09 |
Cyberbook | =\ | 13:10 |
cfhowlett | tim167 supported neither by canoncial or the ubuntu team | 13:12 |
cfhowlett | sorry | 13:12 |
ska | I installed 13.10 on a Asus Z87-Pro using the mini.iso via usb (unetbootin)... This all was in Legacy mode.. I made sure the bios set to legacy. But when it boots, it just hangs with a single underscore cursor. No grub message or other. | 13:14 |
tim167 | cfhowlett: are you sure the issue, and therefore the solution is not the same on both? | 13:14 |
ska | I'm fixing to go into in repair mode but not sure what to repair yet. | 13:14 |
wildbill30 | hello | 13:14 |
ska | Maybe boot order. | 13:14 |
cfhowlett | tim167 we can not support you on this. go to the source; udoo | 13:15 |
lenz | Hello there! I want to remove all .png files from a big directory and all subdirectories within it. Is this possible with rm? Help me out please. | 13:15 |
tim167 | cfhowlett: why not? | 13:15 |
wildbill30 | anybody around ? | 13:15 |
Cyberbook | ubuntu and Android the kernel are the same? | 13:15 |
ikonia | Cyberbook: no | 13:15 |
cfhowlett | !flavors | tim167 these are the officially supported varieties of ubuntu. if your distro is not on this list, it's not supported here. | 13:15 |
ubottu | tim167 these are the officially supported varieties of ubuntu. if your distro is not on this list, it's not supported here.: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. | 13:15 |
milen8204 | hello, how can I make blootable USB flash drive whit win7 on Ubuntu (tried whit UNetBootin but didn`t make it) | 13:16 |
OerHeks | tim167, if linaro does not support you, there is an #udoo channel here on freenode, please don't ask here as we don't know what is your solution | 13:16 |
cfhowlett | milen8204 unetbootin works in windows | 13:16 |
milen8204 | cfhowlett, I am whit ubuntu want to make Windows 7 USB. | 13:17 |
cfhowlett | lenz if done very carefully | 13:17 |
milen8204 | ubuntu 12.04 | 13:17 |
cfhowlett | milen8204 nope. | 13:17 |
wildbill30 | i am wondering if ubuntu 12.04 would run smoothly on a computer that has a pentium 4 with 2.53ghz and 568 mb of ram | 13:17 |
wildbill30 | i got windows xp in that pc right now and its not running good at all and never has | 13:18 |
milen8204 | cfhowlett, there is no way ? | 13:18 |
lenz | cfhowlett how? rm -rv *.png only removes from the current working directory | 13:18 |
cfhowlett | wildbill30 probably better results with lubuntu or xubuntu. lubuntu is optimized for older/lower specification hardware | 13:18 |
wildbill30 | another thing im curious about i have not reformatted a computer in a long time | 13:18 |
cfhowlett | milen8204 get the windows USB creator tool and make your usb with that | 13:18 |
wildbill30 | if i was to download one of those flavors you mentioned would it more than likely recognize the drivers for the pc | 13:19 |
wildbill30 | i lost all the drivers for this particular pc | 13:19 |
milen8204 | cfhowlett, ok thank you so much | 13:19 |
cfhowlett | wildbill30 lubuntu probably | 13:19 |
wildbill30 | thanks, ill see if i can find where to dl it | 13:20 |
cfhowlett | lenz point your rm command at the directly you need to rm | 13:20 |
cfhowlett | !lubuntu|wildbill30 | 13:20 |
ubottu | wildbill30: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 13:20 |
rzx237 | lenz: combining find and rm can do that | 13:20 |
gartral | hey guys, got a netbook, need to update it too 13.10, it isn't mine, but it's running 12/04, any idea? | 13:24 |
cfhowlett | gartral wait until 14.04 comes out and direct upgrade | 13:24 |
lenz | find . -type f -iname \*.jpg -delete did the trick cfhowlett rzx237... what a powerful tool | 13:24 |
cfhowlett | !cookie|rzx237 | 13:24 |
ubottu | rzx237: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 13:24 |
gartral | cfhowlett: not an option, client needs it back in 2 days | 13:24 |
cfhowlett | gartral well, lubuntu or xubuntu then | 13:25 |
cfhowlett | for the netbook | 13:25 |
gartral | cfhowlett: what happened to UNR? | 13:26 |
cfhowlett | gartral SO gone ... :) | 13:26 |
gartral | cfhowlett: hmm, then i might need to drop Ubuntu | 13:26 |
cfhowlett | gartral but lubuntu is optimized for older / lower specification hardware. xubuntu is also pretty friendly | 13:27 |
gartral | since, well, after all, this IS an acer AOD250 | 13:27 |
gartral | cfhowlett: except for small-ass screens | 13:27 |
cfhowlett | gartral I suggest you advise your client that a new LTS releases in about 10 days and go for the 14.04 | 13:27 |
OerHeks | gartral, i would reinstall, 2 days are enough to do that | 13:28 |
OerHeks | 13.10* | 13:28 |
TeraJL | i've installed gnome-shell on ubuntu 14.04, but on login i don't get any button to switch the shell, am i missing something? | 13:28 |
gartral | cfhowlett: exxcept that I'll be 5 countries away.. and client is expecting me to have a secure, stable evironment in 48 hours | 13:29 |
OerHeks | TeraJL, type your username first, i think you can change DE | 13:29 |
cfhowlett | gartral 13.10 clean install of l/x buntu and a free upgrade to 14.04 when you return since the window for 13.10 is only 9 months | 13:29 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Hello got my mouse working :P your not going to believe what what was wrong | 13:30 |
TeraJL | my username is already set, i get something like this http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/news2/Canonical-Finally-Repairs-the-Ugliest-Shutdown-Dialogue-In-Ubuntu-399352-2.jpg and i don't find the button to choose the DE | 13:31 |
gartral | here's the issue.. the netbook has a screen res of 1024x600 it's a frigging netbook | 13:31 |
cfhowlett | gartral right ... and ? lubuntu can do that resolution... | 13:31 |
gartral | cfhowlett: comfortably? i don't think so | 13:31 |
OerHeks | TeraJL, what has a shutdown dialogue to do with login ? | 13:31 |
cfhowlett | gartral test it? sudo apt-get install lxde xfce4 | 13:32 |
TeraJL | sorry OerHeks that was the only image i found of the 14.04 login :), but the thing is that there is no button to switch the DE | 13:32 |
Indian_Boy | Easiest way to copy ssh keys to another machine? | 13:32 |
bekks | Indian_Boy: scp | 13:32 |
cfhowlett | gartral logout choose lubuntu or xubuntu session, login | 13:32 |
OerHeks | uh oh, 14.04 is supported in #ubuntu+1 until release on the 17th | 13:33 |
Indian_Boy | bekks: scp, but I am confused , which I need to paste rsa_id or rsa_id.pub | 13:33 |
gartral | cfhowlett: did that, panel is overlapped, and session isn't stable, complaining that screen space is limited | 13:33 |
bekks | Indian_Boy: The public key. | 13:33 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Hello? | 13:34 |
dioioib | tankerkiller125 hey sorry my irc crashed there | 13:34 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Ah LOL any ways guess what the problem was cause I fixed my mouse | 13:35 |
cfhowlett | gartral ow. I don't know what else to advise ... sorry | 13:35 |
Indian_Boy | I am have one client(192.168.1.15) and server key (192.168.1.21), so I generate ssh-keygen on client, Now on servr what I need to paste, pub key, so Ican make connetion with password ? | 13:35 |
dioioib | tankerkiller what was the issue after all? | 13:35 |
dioioib | don't say it wasn't plugged in. :) | 13:35 |
bekks | gartral: which desktop do you use? | 13:36 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: My mouse has a sensitive on off switch too far and the radio signal transmitter doesn't work too little and the light doesn't work I had it to far :P | 13:36 |
Indian_Boy | bekks: did I need paste pub key on server or client ? | 13:36 |
gartral | bekks: gnome | 13:36 |
dioioib | oh man.. we would have been at it for hours or days. lol | 13:36 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: I know LOL anyways now it doesn't work cause it's out of batteries | 13:37 |
gartral | bekks: asking in ubuntu+1 for who killed UNR | 13:37 |
dioioib | tankerkiller125 I am glad it is working in sofeware now though. Didn't you have an issue with the stylus not right clicking too? | 13:37 |
cfhowlett | !unr | 13:38 |
ubottu | Starting with Ubuntu 11.04, the Ubuntu Netbook Edition is no longer being offered as a separate install as Unity is now standard for all Ubuntu desktop installs. | 13:38 |
cfhowlett | gartral ^^^ | 13:38 |
bekks | gartral: Did you try using Unity? | 13:38 |
gartral | cfhowlett: what? | 13:38 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Yes but it still works the problem was in the fact that the wacom software thinks that it inly has one button that button being the down button so I had to set both of the buttons as right click to make it work | 13:39 |
gartral | bekks: client hates unity, doesn't offer the utilities deeded, namely the weather applet and HPLIP docker | 13:39 |
bekks | Indian_Boy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys | 13:39 |
gartral | needed* | 13:39 |
dioioib | tankerkiller125: ok that is a pain. | 13:40 |
bekks | gartral: Did you take a look at xfce or lxde? | 13:40 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: anyways I'll stick around if anyone else needs help | 13:40 |
bekks | gartral: If gnome is unable to operate on 1024x600 correctly, it isnt something you can fix. | 13:40 |
gartral | bekks: yes client "doesn't want to re-learn" | 13:40 |
ranit | hi | 13:40 |
tankerkiller125 | ranit: Hello | 13:40 |
bekks | gartral: Then the client has to live with the facts. | 13:40 |
Indian_Boy | bekks: thanks | 13:41 |
gartral | bekks: the fact of what, their laptop is useless? | 13:42 |
bekks | gartral: No. The fact that the world keeps turning, and that gnome isnt capable of 1024x600. And that there is no reason for being stubborn like a little kid yelling "but I want it that way that doesnt work!" | 13:43 |
dioioib | bekks: I recommend uninstalling the user, reformating and getting a new user. | 13:44 |
bekks | dioioib: Yeah. | 13:44 |
gartral | bekks: but it's 1024x900 no 1024x600 | 13:44 |
bekks | gartral: then replace that resolution in whats has been said. | 13:45 |
Dinosaurio | Would be secure to install ubuntu 14.04 today? since its features have been frozen | 13:45 |
gartral | bekks: it's a frigging netbook. you cant, dumbass | 13:45 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: whats the default ubuntu terminal based file editor? | 13:45 |
ikonia | gartral: tone it down | 13:46 |
cfhowlett | Dinosaurio u can't wait for 12 days until it's officially released and supported? :) | 13:46 |
ikonia | gartral: lets walk it through | 13:46 |
ikonia | gartral: what version of ubuntu are you using ? | 13:46 |
dioioib | vi I think. I use nano | 13:46 |
bekks | gartral: Watch your language. And dont behave like a little kid since you obviously know what I was trying to tell you. | 13:46 |
gartral | please excuse my lanfuage, i mean no disrespect | 13:46 |
Dinosaurio | cfhowlett: well, that's right :P | 13:46 |
gartral | ikonia: 12.04, UNR | 13:46 |
ikonia | gartral: ok so UNR is dead | 13:46 |
ikonia | gartral: so it seems wise to move away from that | 13:47 |
cfhowlett | gartral "It's DEAD, Jim." | 13:47 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: Never mind its nano just for future refrence | 13:47 |
gartral | ikonia: then what's suitible for a limited netbook, let alone 50 of them | 13:47 |
ikonia | gartral: it's up to you to work out what works well for your on your hardware | 13:47 |
ikonia | gartral: if there are problems with what you want to use, you need to log the bugs and push them through with the development/release teams | 13:48 |
dioioib | tankerkiller125: nano is a lot easier to use anyway. | 13:48 |
gartral | ikonia: and I can't find a DM that fits the screen, which is why i'm asking | 13:48 |
ikonia | gartral: yes, I'm half picking up on what you are asking | 13:48 |
tankerkiller125 | dioioib: I agreeto bad I can't use my IRC client to connect here and I have to use the web based one. Thanks bouncer service... | 13:48 |
gartral | ikonia: I have 48 hours, which is why i'm here.. if client isn't happy, then i'm screwed | 13:49 |
ikonia | gartral: then purchase comercial support from canonical if this is business/revenue critical | 13:49 |

gartral | and Ubuntu and Coconical are taking huge hit. if client isn't happy, they're SUING Conical for disrupting a politcal campaign | 13:51 |
ikonia | gartral: thats just a stupid thing to say | 13:51 |
humbag | gartral: claims to be tech support / can't google that UNR is dead after three years | 13:51 |
ikonia | gartral: so I suggest you focus on resolving the problem rather than threats that make you appear silly | 13:51 |
gartral | the legal team at conical already said get in contact with the irc | 13:52 |
ikonia | gartral: stop it, this is just silly - not interested in your legal threats | 13:52 |

cfhowlett | electron-beam electron-beam NO it is not | 13:55 |
ikonia | electron-beam: sorry - no | 13:55 |
bekks | electron-beam: And the mainline kernel is not supported. | 13:55 |

sydneyJDykstra | bekks: I plan on 14.04, but I have to use the nomedeset option when I boot from their live cd,beckause of their video driver. I didn't know if it would keep the same video driver when i do it though. | 14:23 |
bekks | sydneyJDykstra: Which graphics chipset do you have then, excatly? | 14:23 |
anonynimity | sudo sh -c "echo 'foreign-architecture i386' > /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch" will this command add i386 architecture to my x64 system? | 14:24 |

sydneyJDykstra | anonynimity: The graphics card works fine. | 14:31 |

sydneyJDykstra | bekks: Well, the live cd runs the Nouveau driver,which is not compatable with my card,except in nomedeset mode. | 14:34 |
bekks | sydneyJDykstra: you dont need the live cd, . | 14:34 |
anonynimity | and doesn't exatly do the same thing bekks... I've had packages that I used remove with but had to reinstall them to use the remove --purge toggle with to completely remove them | 14:34 |
bekks | syst3mw0rm: All you need to do is to check wether the graphics drivers for nvidia for 14.04 do have a version that supports your card. As I already told you. | 14:35 |
bekks | anonynimity: "remove --purge" and "purge" do exactly the same. | 14:35 |
sydneyJDykstra | bekks: the only reason i wanted to do it from a cd is beckause I wanted to upgrade to lubuntu trusty instead of ubuntu trusty. | 14:36 |
bekks | sydneyJDykstra: you dont need the live cd at all for doing that. Install "lubuntu-desktop", then upgrade. Done. No livecd needed. | 14:37 |

As well, the smaller of the two is to the right of the larger, but nvidia settings constantly reverts to incorrect positioning with the smaller one on the left instead. | 14:59 |

Zelgod | "Zelgod if you not error in any of the steps is your linux in the way" | 15:28 |
ZeuZ | Zelgod, what are the issues? | 15:28 |

Zelgod | atm, when i run the windows usb im getting \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD Status: 0x000000d | 15:29 |
aregank | Munster: I just took it out of the box and plugged it in. Haven't done anything to it yet (not actually sure what to do first, to be honest) | 15:29 |
Zelgod | which is apparently code 13 for The data is invalid. | 15:30 |

aregank | Munster: no, it's not showing up in nautilus, but I can see it as /dev/sdb in /proc/partitions | 15:31 |

cfhowlett | Zelgod if you didn't use the windows USB creator tool to make the windows boot USB ... | 15:32 |
Zelgod | i used rufus since my system is in uefi mode. | 15:32 |
Munster | aregank, then use gparted to format the drive to FAT32, that's probly your best bet | 15:32 |
cfhowlett | Zelgod NO idea what a rufus is ... | 15:32 |

Stu | it should be fairly simple right? | 15:47 |
linuxthefish | yes | 15:48 |
Stu | ubuntu seems to be the best distro right? | 15:48 |
Stu | i mean i've been a sindows user for a looooooooong time | 15:48 |
ikonia | Stu: it's personal preference, some people love it, some hate it | 15:48 |
linuxthefish | best way i think would be to disconnect the 1st drive fully to make sure it installs on the storage drive, then when booting up choose which hdd to use | 15:48 |
ikonia | Stu: if you're unsure, try a live instance to get a feel for it | 15:49 |
Stu | i got the iso...im gonna burn it to dvd and run the live instance to see if i like it | 15:49 |
IdleOne | Stu: make sure you select the correct drive to install ubuntu on, make sure to install the grub boot loader to /dev/sda. The installer will ask/offer to do this for you. Read the instructions, read them again to make, read a third time before clicking the apply button. | 15:49 |
Stu | i realize this is a ubuntu...does anyone else use any other flavor? | 15:50 |

Caleb-- | danke | 16:02 |
aregank | ikonia: wow, I don't think I've ever had a DOA disk before. if it was the controller, is it reasonable to expect /dev/sda wouldn't work either? | 16:03 |
ikonia | aregank: very reasonable | 16:03 |
aregank | ikonia: what a bummer. ok, thanks | 16:03 |

redheat | hi everyone.. | 17:10 |
vlad_starkov | QUESTION: Hi there! I'm setting up NFS4 server. Can't find "quota" service. Should I install it manually? | 17:10 |
redheat | just need a little help here if possible..this a multi-OS problem, both Ubuntu and Mint and experience the same thing... | 17:10 |
bekks | redheat: Then start with a specific ubuntu question. :) | 17:11 |
redheat | I have a new HP paviliion laptop i5-e060se here's the spec page, and you'll see I have dual graphics card...an Intel 4000 or whatever it is which comes with my new i5 processor chipset and another separate "discrete" card which is an ATI 8670m graphics card.. | 17:12 |
redheat | here's the specs page for my new laptop: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c03811316 | 17:13 |
redheat | bekks, thanks :) | 17:13 |
bekks | redheat: And whats the actual question? | 17:14 |
redheat | my problem is like, this is a problem that happened before installation, after installtion ..so please do bear me for a while..the problem is like this: first of all I hae all my linux distributions installed on an external Western Digital USB HD, 500 GB, I have, and installed the OS there using a USB flahs key...during installation and after installtion I always get a black screen unless I wrote "NOMODESET"...no video drivers work out of the box like in | 17:16 |
redheat | Knoppix, and after I installed ubuntu, still the problem persists unless I write down "nomodeset" in boot loader I always end up with a black screen which tells me my xorg doesn't work... | 17:16 |
redheat | bekks.. | 17:16 |
bekks | redheat: Can you form a specific question on one line please? | 17:17 |
=== cm is now known as Guest60552 | ||
redheat | I want video drivers for my Ubuntu installation that is all..I have tried the default and the fglrx and fglrx updated and nothing works..only the xorg drivers, the default drivers which offer nothing are the ones working.. | 17:18 |
IdleOne | bekks: my guess is he wants to know how to make the nomodeset persistent | 17:18 |
IdleOne | redheat: what graphics card do you have? | 17:18 |
redheat | unless I write down "NOMODESET" I end up with a black screen... I don't know why and I don't know how.. | 17:18 |

redheat | This problem happens with Mint too, I got Mint 16 Petra 64 bit and Ubuntu Saucy Salamander installed side by side both 64 bit and I have the same issue under both OS... | 17:22 |
Sven_vB | just "find" with mod date as criteria? | 17:22 |
TeraJL | when i run 'apt-get install oracle-java7-installer' i get that apt is going to be removed and i need to type "yes,do as i say!" | 17:22 |

Sven_vB | TeraJL, try aptitude instead of apt-get | 17:23 |
Sven_vB | TeraJL, apt-get might suggest actions that are left over from earlier attempts, unrelated to your current attempt | 17:24 |
redheat | Idle0ne, bekks, now here's the catch, Knoppix, which another Linux OS I run from my "usb key" automatically detects my graphics card, and in live mode, I made I have even installed it...it opens up with both a video driver install and compiz fusion..In ubuntu and Mint...I can't get this...can you believe this BS??!! | 17:24 |

AfraidToShootStr | I am on the verge of installing Ubuntu 13.10 on my ThinkPad X1 Carbon but before I do that, does anyone what I need to about drivers? Lenovo have no Linux-drivers for my machine on their site, so I'm worried about eventual dysfunctionalities | 17:49 |
MonkeyDust | AfraidToShootStr tip: two weeks from will be the release of the new LTS | 17:50 |
MonkeyDust | from now* | 17:51 |
AfraidToShootStr | MonkeyDust: Ok, might be a reason to hold off until then. However, how is the driver-issue resolved when putting Ubuntu on Windows-intended (?) machines? | 17:51 |
MonkeyDust | AfraidToShootStr you *could* try it with a live session | 17:52 |
AfraidToShootStr | MonkeyDust: Hm, can I really write data when testing it from, say, a USB? | 17:53 |
hmmp | that feel when clickin unity launcher again and it doesnt minimize the application | 17:53 |
melray | I just followed a guide on setting up encryption...When I created a revoke file all went well. I don't know where it defaults to writing it out at? | 17:53 |
MonkeyDust | AfraidToShootStr again: try to find out, would be the best way, i guess | 17:54 |
AfraidToShootStr | MonkeyDust: Sure definitely but I didn't at all think that downloading and installing something while running from a USB was possible | 17:56 |
MonkeyDust | AfraidToShootStr it's possible, but may not be needed. As for me, a device failed on my parent's windows pc, i attached the device to my linux laptop and it worked out of the box, no installation of anything needed | 17:57 |
cfhowlett | MonkeyDust gotta love when that happens | 17:58 |
cfhowlett | AfraidToShootStr like monkeydust, suggest you wait for 14.04 | 17:59 |
MonkeyDust | AfraidToShootStr oh, and this is 12.04 | 17:59 |
AfraidToShootStr | cfhowlett: Yeah I'll wait for it | 18:00 |
SchrodingersScat | I thought thinkpads had a good history with working with ubuntu. Not familiar with that model though. | 18:00 |
AfraidToShootStr | MonkeyDust: You mean you installed the device on an ubuntu 12.04? | 18:00 |
MonkeyDust | AfraidToShootStr not "installed", plugged in and it worked | 18:00 |
AfraidToShootStr | MonkeyDust: Right. Neat! | 18:01 |
AfraidToShootStr | SchrodingersScat: So I have heard as well but it wasn't clear to me how much one have to fiddle around with drivers | 18:01 |
cfhowlett | AfraidToShootStr also: consider going LTS installs only. why? LTS has 5 years support! non-lts; 9 months. | 18:02 |
MonkeyDust | cfhowlett yeah, was nice :) | 18:02 |
OerHeks | ubuntu gives 24/7 support, ... unless cfhowlett and MonkeyDust are sleeping | 18:04 |
AfraidToShootStr | cfhowlett: Yeah I read that. But the upcoming update in two weeks, will 14.04 be the only version and on top of that, with LTS? Or will there be an equivalent of 13.10 for the 14.04? | 18:04 |
cfhowlett | OerHeks we alternate: he takes the western hemisphere I do southeast side | 18:04 |
SchrodingersScat | AfraidToShootStr: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases#Version_timeline | 18:05 |
AfraidToShootStr | thx | 18:05 |
cfhowlett | AfraidToShootStr not quite sure I understand your question so ... 13.10 has 9 months support, so come July - no more support. 12.04 is supported until 2017 and 14.04 until 2019 | 18:05 |
AfraidToShootStr | cfhowlett: Oh ok, I see | 18:06 |
SchrodingersScat | AfraidToShootStr: have you tried a liveusb? maybe something with persistence? | 18:08 |
AfraidToShootStr | SchrodingersScat: I have 13.10 on a USB, played around about ~5 min with Ubuntu though I never installed it yet | 18:09 |
ddn | hi all, how can I run old .bas basic programs on ubunt? | 18:09 |
Doomhammer | hi, how can i grub-install to the MBR? kubuntu seems to have installed grub with only the EFI target by default | 18:10 |
MonkeyDust | ddn there's a dos emulator, i forget the name, moment | 18:10 |
MonkeyDust | ddn it's dosbox | 18:11 |
anonynimity | can someone tell me what the easiest way is to search a bunch of files for specific text? | 18:12 |
Kottizen | anonynimity: are they all in the same folder? | 18:12 |
BlueEagle | MonkeyDust: not sure if it also comes with QBasic, or if you need that separate. | 18:12 |
BlueEagle | anonynimity: find? grep? | 18:12 |
anonynimity | no kottizen, there are sub folders, and they are .mk files. | 18:12 |
SchrodingersScat | ddn: you can also check your repo's for basic, there's many packages that use 'basic' to define what they do, but there's also some like 'brandy' and 'bwbasic' that /might/ do what you want, they don't say if they read .bas files in the descriptions I see. | 18:13 |
Kottizen | anonynimity: grep -r "text" * | 18:13 |
Kottizen | anonynimity: in the root folder of the tree you want to search | 18:13 |
OerHeks | ddn, install dosbox, and download gwbasix.exe > see answer sevenmachines > http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1959486.html | 18:13 |
anonynimity | thanks Kottizen; also how do I identify "java" in the same files? | 18:13 |
ddn | MonkeyDust, installing, do you know how to start the .bas once installed dosbox? | 18:13 |
Kottizen | anonynimity: you want the specified string + "java", anywhere in the file? | 18:14 |
ddn | fine, checking gwbasic now | 18:14 |
anonynimity | just identify java (so I can comment out some stuff) | 18:14 |
MonkeyDust | ddn no, i remember ysing .bat files, but no .bas files | 18:14 |
MonkeyDust | using* | 18:14 |
Kottizen | anonynimity: what do you mean by "identify" java? | 18:14 |
anonynimity | I need to find java "apps" that are coded into these same files so I can comment them out | 18:15 |
Kottizen | anonynimity: how are they identified, if you would do it manually? would you look for a certain string, a file name, etc.? | 18:15 |
Doomhammer | any idea how to get the grub2 i386-pc target installed? | 18:18 |
Beldar | Doomhammer, What is the actual issue? | 18:18 |
Doomhammer | Beldar: i installed ubuntu alongside windows. there is no EFI partition, but ubuntu installed grub with x86_64-efi target, so it's still booting directly into windows instead of booting grub | 18:19 |
Doomhammer | Beldar: i believe just doing grub-install --target=i386-pc will fix it, but the i386-pc target isn't there in /usr/lib/grub | 18:20 |
Beldar | Doomhammer, Is windows still there? | 18:20 |
Doomhammer | Beldar: yeah, it resized it and it still works fine | 18:20 |
Doomhammer | Beldar: i can also boot into the ubuntu livecd and chroot into my new ubuntu partition, so that's working fine too - just don't have a way to boot it | 18:20 |
Beldar | Doomhammer, can you pastebin sudp parted-l from the ubuntu live? | 18:21 |
Beldar | sudo parted -l* | 18:21 |

skorasaurus-alt | my 12.04 system had crashed randomly, so I had loaded a 14.04 livecd, but my /var/syslog only contains a record of the 14.04 boot cd. | 18:23 |
Beldar | Doomhammer, No got that is good, if ubuntu is installed correctly all you need to do is chroot to if and grub-install /dev'sda than update-grub. From that chroot you can purge and reload grub if needed. | 18:24 |

satmandu | Hi all, has anybody here switched from using wpa_supplicant.conf to using network manager? | 18:24 |
satmandu | I'm trying to figure out how to import my network passwords from wpa_supplicant to network manager | 18:24 |
Beldar | Doomhammer, Sorry with an edit " No gpt that is good, if ubuntu is installed correctly all you need to do is chroot to if and grub-install /dev/sda than update-grub. From that chroot you can purge and reload grub if needed." | 18:24 |
bdavenport | skorasaurus-alt, making a guess, your looking at the livecd filesystem and not your systems drive | 18:24 |
bdavenport | you might need to mount your drive first | 18:25 |
skorasaurus-alt | ah, yes. that is obvious. | 18:25 |
Doomhammer | Beldar: i'll give it a go - thanks :) | 18:26 |

Doomhammer | Beldar: okay, so grub is now booted properly, and i'm inside my new ubuntu install, but it doesn't actually show the grub menu | 18:29 |
Doomhammer | Beldar: do i need to install os-prober for update-grub to detect windows 8? | 18:29 |
Doomhammer | Beldar: actually, i think just doing grub-mkconfig instead of update-grub did the trick; let me try | 18:30 |

jamieshepherd | Ubuntu server: I can connect to a VPN (using pptp) ppp0 connection with ifconfig.. all successful.. for some reason however I can't view websites that are under the VPN (using w3m for example) - It is my University's VPN that has websites only accessable if you are connected to the VPN, however I have software that needs to run on the VPN and I need to access from my Ubuntu server -_- Can connect to VPN, can't vie | 18:35 |
jamieshepherd | w websites. Any ideas? | 18:35 |
daftykins | default routes, DNS | 18:36 |
daftykins | check the usual suspects to see where in the chain it's failing | 18:36 |
jamieshepherd | daftykins, default routes are discussed in the tutorial I was following for VPN. I wasn't too sure what had to be set up though | 18:37 |
daftykins | jamieshepherd: well for any of your web traffic to be routed via the VPN, you'll need your default gateway to be the first-IP at the other end of the VPN | 18:37 |
jamieshepherd | How will I know what that is? | 18:38 |
daftykins | jamieshepherd: type either "ip route" or "route -n" then look at the information returned | 18:38 |
zopsi | How would I go about routing a specific priveleged user's traffic through openvpn then the rest through normal route? | 18:39 |
daftykins | zopsi: i don't think you can. try #networking | 18:40 |

daftykins | Biafra: hmm, need your hand held huh | 18:41 |
mysqloff | it only works locally and I already checked my.cnf.. | 18:41 |
Biafra | daftykins, the only thing google says is "April 2014" | 18:41 |
Beldar | brain like jello | 18:42 |
daftykins | guest-gZdlpo_: why would you be in that situation? are you trying to take over someone elses system? | 18:42 |
SchrodingersScat | Beldar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases#Version_timeline | 18:42 |
Biafra | daftykins, All I need is specifics | 18:42 |
Beldar | SchrodingersScat, If I could read that would help. | 18:42 |
daftykins | Biafra: if you're doing anything mission critical you should be using LTS | 18:43 |

ubottu | To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system" | 18:43 |
daftykins | hrmm, nope not that one | 18:44 |
DJones | Biafra: As far as I know, they generally don't set an exact cut off date, I suspect it would be after the release of 14.04, but no guarantee, in theory, it could be the 1st as a worst case, 18th would be a strict 18 months | 18:44 |
daftykins | guest-gZdlpo_: hold left shift at boot, select advanced options from the menu, select recovery or similar, then when a menu comes up ask for a root shell and then you can reset your password. | 18:44 |
Biafra | thanks, DJones | 18:44 |
guest-gZdlpo_ | Im using xubuntu tho, and i Didnt see the alternate cd. I havn't lost my password, it just wont let me use the sudo command. I'm still getting comfortable with the linux shell. | 18:45 |

jamieshepherd | daftykins, thanks for your help. THe tutorial recommends I create a routing script.. Which basically does this: | 18:49 |
jamieshepherd | route add -net 192.168.20.0/24 dev $PPP_IFACE | 18:49 |
jamieshepherd | So I replaced the IP with the one I received from route -n | 18:49 |
daftykins | jamieshepherd: so that network doesn't show up in route -n at all right now? | 18:49 |
jamieshepherd | I was wondering about the /24 part | 18:50 |
jamieshepherd | Which, the ppp0 connection? | 18:50 |
daftykins | that's a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 | 18:50 |
daftykins | yeah | 18:50 |
jamieshepherd | still shows when I do ifconfig | 18:50 |
jamieshepherd | but perhaps that means the script isn't running properly? | 18:50 |
daftykins | upon establishing the PPP link it should really update the routing table automatically with a route for the new network | 18:51 |
daftykins | can you paste 'route -n' to paste.ubuntu.com ? | 18:51 |
jamieshepherd | Sure, just a second, thanks for your help | 18:51 |

zh1 | got a user here that forgot root password on ubuntu, whats the easiest way to reset it? | 19:00 |
CarlFK | zh1: reboot, hold shift down, you sould get the grub boot menu, select "recovery" | 19:01 |
Vpex | zh1: "sudo passwd root" | 19:02 |
zh1 | ah ok | 19:03 |
k1l_ | no | 19:03 |
k1l_ | dont set a root password m( | 19:04 |
k1l_ | !forgotpassword | 19:04 |
k1l_ | !root | zh1 | 19:05 |
ubottu | zh1: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:05 |
zh1 | i dont wanna guess it lol | 19:05 |
k1l_ | zh1: there is no activated root account on ubuntu. so you cant forget your root pw | 19:05 |
zh1 | i have a user here on ubuntu and he forgot root password, what i want to do is reset it | 19:06 |
k1l_ | zh1: then you made a mistake already. ubuntu doesnt come with a root password. use sudo instead | 19:06 |
zh1 | ah ok | 19:07 |
k1l_ | zh1: please read the message the bot just gave you | 19:07 |
zh1 | k1l_, ok | 19:08 |
zh1 | k1l_, your right i forgot that i dont run ubuntu in a while | 19:09 |

daftykins | Zelgod: i can think of nothing assuming you already have another computer to make up discs/flash drives with | 19:20 |
Odd-rationale | majod: I don't know exactly why, but most likely to clearly show it's a binary file. If you want to have icons like in Windows, Linux uses .desktop files. | 19:20 |
Odd-rationale | majod: You can browse to /usr/share/applications for examples. | 19:20 |
Zelgod | daftykins, i do i simply do not know how to recreate the gpt / efi partition if i remove them all | 19:21 |
Zelgod | i am in the live ubuntu cd now | 19:21 |
daftykins | Zelgod: it can be done auto by UEFI OS installs | 19:21 |
daftykins | Zelgod: if you want 7 and ubuntu i'd recommend putting windows on first | 19:22 |
Zelgod | so assuming i remove all the partitions, insert a windows 7 image it should pickup and install the gpt partition on its own? | 19:23 |
OerHeks | gparted does not find gpt, use parted or gdisk | 19:24 |

OerHeks | Zelgod, sure, parted is installed and gdisk is in the repos | 19:26 |
Zelgod | OerHeks, is it safe to simply remove the gpt and let windows recreate it? | 19:26 |
majod | Odd-rationale: oh, thanks. i didnt even know that directory exists, always looked in /usr/bin/ | 19:27 |
zh1 | k1l_, thanks it was just a sudo su :) | 19:27 |
OerHeks | Zelgod, good questio: i am not sure it will | 19:28 |
daftykins | Zelgod: GPT is a partition table scheme, hence the name. to nuke it, i would delete partitions with any app that can manage them, then dd 100MB of zeroes to the start of the disk | 19:29 |
k1l_ | zh1: m( | 19:29 |
zongo | the xml file that gnome-tweak-tool is complaining about is in /usr/local/share/glib-2.0 but its completely empty - My guess is, this is the issue | 19:29 |

BlueEagle | sebastianstudio: This is one of the things that PulseAudio aims to resolve. Instead of letting individual apps hog the alsa resource, PulseAudio hogs it and other apps connect to the PulseAudio proxy. | 20:35 |
BlueEagle | sebastianstudio: So, the thing you need to look into is if the sound application is set to user PulseAudio, or Alsa. If it is the latter you ought to reconfigure it to use the former. | 20:36 |
hepcater | hyperbrain: He means look at the contents of the file "/etc/fstab" | 20:36 |

farouk | it cant even open on ubuntu | 20:39 |

=== Keanu73_ is now known as Keanu73 | ||
BlueEagle | farouk: Ahh I see. I do believe that PD-proxy is a very low level application, and as such running it in wine may not work. Wine will not be able to "cathc" the network traffic and route it through the VPN. (I think) | 20:43 |
BlueEagle | farouk: see also http://www.pdproxy.com/blog/pd-proxy-android-linux-version-soon-4.htm | 20:43 |

BlueEagle | farouk: Note that the 'coming soon' was posted in 2011, and there is no linux client on their home page as far as I can tell. Therefore I do see it as unlikely that it will come 'soon'. | 20:47 |

pietro10 | Hi. I played around with some desktop environment sessions, and one of them changed lightdm to use a differnet theme that I can't switch back with KDE - specifically an Ubuntu-like theme with a list of users on the left, that had a purple background at first but changed to an XFCE one after I tried that. How do I change ti back? I tried removing /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf (which wasn't there before) but that didn't work. Thanks. | 21:00 |

JCM83 | can anyone recommend a good command-line-interface client other than ubuntu's Terminal? Or alternately, a way of customizing features in the terminal? Particularly keyboard shortcuts, here. | 21:36 |
twirm_ | have you looked into running other shells like ZSH instead of bash? | 21:37 |
JCM83 | twirm that's exactly the kind of response I'm looking for. What are other shells? | 21:37 |
qin | JCM83: what keyboard shortcuts? | 21:37 |
JCM83 | And how do I get them? | 21:37 |
JCM83 | qin honestly it'd solve it if I could just ctrl+v into Terminal. | 21:37 |
dw1 | JCM83: you can set up aliases so you can run a short command and do lots | 21:37 |
dw1 | ah | 21:38 |
JCM83 | I'm not quite ready for scripting yet. | 21:38 |
dw1 | try middle mouse button | 21:38 |
qin | JCM83: Ctrl-Shift-v is too much? | 21:38 |
JCM83 | trackball. qin, is that the shortcut? | 21:38 |
dw1 | or on laptop, both mouse buttons at once | 21:38 |
JCM83 | shit no that's not too much, thanks. | 21:38 |
JCM83 | I bet in ACCELS you can change that value, brb | 21:38 |
twirm_ | JCM83, https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto that's a great way to get started with ZSH with super simple configs | 21:39 |

qin | hyperbrain: And what happens when you press "s"? | 21:47 |
hyperbrain | nothing | 21:48 |
hyperbrain | if i press m go to the shell | 21:49 |
hyperbrain | can't find a fix anywhere | 21:49 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: You've configured a mount on /temp/, or do you mean /tmp/ ? | 21:49 |
hyperbrain | /tmp/ | 21:50 |
hyperbrain | I'm a noob trying to learn linux | 21:50 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: First, identify if there is a separate file-system for /tmp/. At the shell check the file-system table that lists required mounts by doing: "grep '/tmp' /etc/fstab " | 21:51 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: Depending on what you see, we can then suggest further steps | 21:51 |

TJ- | hyperbrain: empty response you mean? | 21:56 |
hyperbrain | yes | 21:56 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: That simply means that 'grep' (GNU Regular ExPression text search) didn't find a matching line, which tells us there isn't a persistent disk-based file-system assigned to the /tmp/ mount-point. | 21:57 |

hyperbrain | thks TJ | 22:00 |
davyde | they are always on, like 60-80% each on of 4 cores | 22:01 |
TJ- | bng: "sudo" only applies to the "echo" not the following pipe. Instead, do "echo "1002 665c" | sudo dd of=/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/new_id" | 22:01 |
davyde | i used indicator-cpufreq but does nothing | 22:01 |
bng | TJ that did cross my mind, will try, thank you! | 22:01 |
davyde | ubuntu gnome 12.04 | 22:01 |

davyde | system-monitor | 22:05 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: Trying to find a default install of 13.10 here to look at | 22:05 |

davyde | and the fan always on, and the pc shutdown suddendly for warm | 22:05 |
OerHeks | !lmsensors | 22:06 |
ubottu | To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 22:06 |
OerHeks | might be an GPU-fan issue | 22:06 |
davyde | it's an ATI radeon HD 4500 | 22:07 |
davyde | should i need catalyst? | 22:07 |
hyperbrain | ok I'm trying to find something too but as noob it is a bit hard to be sure so whats the right thing. | 22:07 |
OerHeks | !ati | 22:07 |
ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 22:07 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: I don't have a default install of 13.10 here to check on, unfortunately. All my install have a file-system mounted at /tmp/ which is different to your apparent configuration. If your system doesn't have a mount-point for /tmp/ in "/etc/fstab" I'm struggling to understand why you're seeing a mount warning for "/tmp" since it is just a directory in the root file-system | 22:08 |

davyde | oook | 22:10 |
hyperbrain | do you think if i reinstall it will sort the problem out? | 22:10 |
davyde | so proprietary driver | 22:10 |
hyperbrain | cause all my files ar not in the system partition | 22:10 |
hyperbrain | TJ this isn't a dual boot | 22:11 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: Reinstall is a very drastic - that's a "Windows" approach - and generally unneeded on any Linux installation unless you've been changing things massively | 22:11 |
OerHeks | davyde, i was reading @ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2119008 to find this ppa for precise https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx | 22:12 |
hyperbrain | ok good to learn that | 22:12 |
bng | TJ-: the command seems to work, but I still cannot get my pci card assigned to qemu | 22:12 |
bng | TJ-: it reports qemu: -device pci-assign,host=01:00.0: get_real_device: /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/config: Permission denied | 22:12 |
hyperbrain | I still have access to shell so if i can find a fix it would be awesome | 22:12 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: The default installation of Ubuntu has "/tmp" as just another directory of the root file-system, just like "/usr". The message you report should only occur when you've configured a separate file-system to be mounted at the location. | 22:13 |
TJ- | hyperbrain: Does boot-up stall at that message or are you able to 'S'kip it and continue booting? | 22:13 |
TJ- | bng: Looks like a permissions issue | 22:14 |
awesomess3 | xubuntu uses 873MB for its LiveUSB image. I think it should be more like 230MB. Why is it so big? | 22:14 |

hyperbrain | TJ I haven't messed about with the partitions . what happend was one night i shutdown the system next day it gave this message | 22:15 |
TJ- | bng: Looks like a permissions issue | 22:15 |

bng | TJ-: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Apr 6 12:58 config | 22:16 |

hyperbrain | ok | 22:16 |
bng | TJ-: I need to find a guide I guess, I should not run qemu as root, right? | 22:16 |
TJ- | bng: As expected, but how about the qemu process? | 22:16 |
bng | TJ-: in htop or so? | 22:17 |
TJ- | bng: Are you working with libvirt-bin, or directly with qemu-system- ? | 22:17 |
bng | TJ-: qemu directly | 22:17 |
TJ- | bng: Then you'd need to ensure the group that qemu runs as, also has r/w permissions for that PCI config node | 22:18 |
bng | TJ-: I haven't used libvirt-bin, does it work differently? sounds like a library to me | 22:18 |

Han_nibal | when i install a nvidia driver, x won't start | 22:30 |
TJ- | bng: Yes, first step is check the dmesg log, see if it mentions IOMMU or VT-d extensions | 22:31 |
TJ- | bng see http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/How_to_assign_devices_with_VT-d_in_KVM | 22:31 |
bng | TJ-: also, I did update some apparmor rule before, if that has anything to do with the permissions | 22:31 |
bng | TJ-: you are right, it is not running | 22:32 |
TJ- | bng: It would only affect things if the qemu process should otherwise have permissions, but as the node was root:root and qemu wasn't, you'd first need to change things so the qemu process's group was allowed r/w on the node | 22:32 |

fate_ | when ziping something is deflated 1% bad | 23:24 |
lucasredsn0w | are you building a kernel? | 23:24 |
fate_ | no ziping mp3s | 23:24 |
sbluen | the key seems to be a binary file | 23:24 |
daftykins | fate_: you can't compress compressed files | 23:24 |
lucasredsn0w | try to find it | 23:24 |
fate_ | so what that means | 23:24 |
sbluen | I guess I'll have to give up on trying to get ethernet internet access on ubuntu 12.04 because it won't recognize my 8152 atheros driver | 23:25 |
simpleuser | Hi there. Someone told me he can use his mouse to interact with weechat/irssi. I can’t. He told me it could be linked to the multiplexer but it’s the same without byobu. I tried on Guake and xfce4-terminal. Any idea? Or was it an april joke? :) | 23:25 |
fate_ | it means the file not ziping ? | 23:26 |
lucasredsn0w | Try to build the latest kernel | 23:26 |

lucasredsn0w | Or update to 14.04 after a few days | 23:26 |
lucasredsn0w | both is ok | 23:26 |
sbluen | does the latest kernel have better support? | 23:26 |
lucasredsn0w | ofcourse it must be! | 23:27 |
lucasredsn0w | Devs will add new driver into it | 23:27 |
lucasredsn0w | But you need to configure by yourself | 23:27 |
lucasredsn0w | But if you did that before it's easier | 23:28 |
