| chriys | daftykins I'm the only one who is going to access to the vps but it will host a public website | 00:04 |
| daftykins | chriys: i would definitely say that FTP is a dangerous service to run | 00:04 |
| daftykins | in fact i'd go so far as to say it's a really bad idea | 00:05 |

| chriys | ok but How can I access my file from Dreamweaver | 00:06 |

| chipotle | ok,thxs | 00:06 |
| elroy | in 13.10 I don't have the screen brightness adjustment in Brightness and Lock | 00:07 |
| elroy | how do I adjust screen brightness? | 00:07 |
| daftykins | chriys: i hear it supports SFTP access | 00:08 |
| elroy | no additional software drivers available | 00:08 |
| vonsyd0w | chriys, sorry had to take a phone call (im on-call) :( | 00:10 |
| vonsyd0w | chriys, the only two changes that are needed are local_enable=YES and write_enable=YES. The rest of the conf file can stay default. | 00:11 |
| vonsyd0w | Regardless, this won't give you access to /var/www until you alter permissions | 00:11 |
| vonsyd0w | ilhami, did you enable "3D acceleration" in the display tab for the VM? | 00:12 |
| vonsyd0w | and install vbox gAdditions? | 00:12 |
| ilhami | Yes and that crashed Unity. Seriously I need something else than Unity. | 00:13 |
| vonsyd0w | try gnome-shell! thats what i use | 00:13 |
| wolflarson | KDE FTW | 00:13 |
| daftykins | elroy: best idea is to google your laptop make+model | 00:13 |
| vonsyd0w | i need to install KDE and play with it. I'm afraid I'll like it | 00:13 |
| vonsyd0w | lol | 00:13 |
| wolflarson | lol | 00:13 |
| extravagantdrake | My PC is too old to run Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS with Unity 2D | 00:14 |
| wolflarson | it does take some config but when you get it to a good spot ... i never have gone back | 00:14 |
| stef1a | Out of the blue, my laptop can no longer connect to wireless networks, though it can view them. I am using Ubuntu 13.10. Help? | 00:14 |
| ilhami | vonsyd0w Gnome is much nicer but also requires a lot I think.. I need something lightweight | 00:14 |
| extravagantdrake | The mouse takes several minutes to respond briefly | 00:14 |
| jasabella | iam loving kde but hate the sheer amount of built in keyboard shortcuts | 00:14 |
| wolflarson | you can change them | 00:14 |
| jasabella | i know, still a pain | 00:15 |
| wolflarson | yea | 00:15 |
| wolflarson | i guess ... | 00:15 |
| bekks | extravagantdrake: then your pc is too old for Ubuntu, briefly. | 00:15 |
| daftykins | extravagantdrake: try lubuntu or xubuntu | 00:15 |
| jasabella | oh and the kmenu doesnt pop up with the windows key by default | 00:15 |
| wolflarson | yea | 00:15 |
| daftykins | jasabella: if it can be configured, it's not a problem | 00:15 |
| wolflarson | jasabella: its not the windows key its the super key | 00:16 |
| jasabella | meta key :D | 00:16 |
| wolflarson | heh | 00:16 |
| jasabella | kind of confusing for newbies i found but ya | 00:16 |
| ilhami | it's almost as my VM is faster without the virtualbox additions :D | 00:16 |
| jasabella | is tere a package that will ease the transition from windows? | 00:17 |
| vonsyd0w | ilhami, what are the specs of your PC? | 00:18 |
| vonsyd0w | specifically RAM and CPU | 00:18 |
| ilhami | 4 GB | 00:18 |
| ilhami | RAM | 00:18 |
| ilhami | I5 CPU | 00:18 |
| chriys | vonsyd0w I see but how can I access /var/www from the ftp | 00:18 |
| ilhami | i5 | 00:18 |
| ilhami | I have optimus :D | 00:19 |
| vonsyd0w | chriys, you'll need to change the permissions on /var/www - the sysadmin in me wont allow me to walk you through the unsecure method. sorry. | 00:19 |
| Sommerpils | Hi! How can i upgrade my distrol from 12.04 to 14.04? I know the LTS is not out until 16.th but I want to try it anyways | 00:19 |
| vonsyd0w | ilhami, so you can switch between intel gfx and nVidia gfx, right? | 00:20 |
| ilhami | yes :D | 00:20 |
| vonsyd0w | i think thats what that is | 00:20 |
| rww | Sommerpils: update-manager -d; #ubuntu+1 for 14.04 support | 00:20 |
| witheld | wait extravagantdrake seriously why did you give that "advice" | 00:20 |
| witheld | why wouldn't you just install ubuntu server | 00:21 |
| Sommerpils | thanks | 00:21 |
| Sommerpils | Il try it | 00:21 |
| vonsyd0w | I'm running a thinkpad 430 dual core w/ 16G and have 5 VMs running (windows and gnome shell) and it runs great w/ intel HD 4000. Graphics are disabled in the win box but not gnome-shell | 00:21 |
| chriys | ok ok vonsyd0w do you think there's a way that the content of public_html shows inside of /var/www | 00:21 |
| Sommerpils | sweet thanks rww | 00:21 |
| witheld | vonsyd0w: what virtualization tech/software? | 00:22 |
| vonsyd0w | virtualbox | 00:22 |
| ilhami | in the Linux channel they suggested that I should call Canonical :D | 00:22 |
| vonsyd0w | i have a home lab running kvm and VMware sitting next to me | 00:22 |
| vonsyd0w | love me some virtualization | 00:22 |
| vonsyd0w | chriys, is public_html in your home directory? | 00:23 |
| chriys | yeah | 00:23 |
| betabertus | hey | 00:23 |
| chriys | i'm root of the vps | 00:23 |
| vonsyd0w | oh, wait your root account is enabled and you're using it for FTP? | 00:23 |
| * vonsyd0w watches everyones eyes open wide | 00:24 | |
| chriys | actually that's the only way I can access it | 00:24 |
| vonsyd0w | i'm not seeing the problem then, unless root doesn't have write access to /var/www | 00:24 |
| vonsyd0w | which it should | 00:24 |
| ilhami | I am going to use this VM for development so it better be fast vonsyd0w or I will call canonical :D haha | 00:24 |
| chriys | vonsyd0w I can disable ftp when I'm done | 00:25 |
| Yelu | CS | 00:25 |
| vonsyd0w | plot twist: chriys is running CentOS, lol | 00:25 |
| ilhami | CentOs has its own channel? | 00:26 |
| ilhami | right? | 00:26 |
| vonsyd0w | ilhami, they do. im joking tho' | 00:26 |

| vonsyd0w | oh nice | 00:28 |
| chriys | vonsyd0w when I try to log using a username except root it shows 500 oops cannot change directory /incoming | 00:28 |
| ilhami | and then installed the virtualbox guest addition after | 00:28 |
| vonsyd0w | chriys, you need to update the vsftpd.conf file as stated earlier and restart th vsftpd service | 00:29 |
| ilhami | enabled 3D... It's so fast now :D:D:D | 00:29 |
| betabertus | how do i remove ubuntu option from boot on lenovo z500? | 00:29 |

| Beldar | !nomodeset | vern boot this and reload the graphics | 00:39 |

| k1l_ | cisconinja: for this channel see in #ubuntu-ops | 00:45 |
| cisconinja | daftykins: thanks | 00:45 |
| k1l_ | betabertus: well, you need to configure the grub scripts to not mention one of your ubuntu installs | 00:46 |

| akurilin | Quick question: is there a recommended location for me to place static assets (pictures in my case) to be served either through a web server or read locally from disk by various web apps? Currently all of my apps run as www-data and most custom applications go under /var/www. | 00:56 |

| akurilin | I'm ok with placing everything under /var/www, just wanted to know if there's a more idiomatic place in linux/ubuntu. | 00:57 |
| wisescribe7 | cyphase: Could it be a flash issue? | 00:58 |
| cyphase | wisescribe7, not likely if it's not a flash video | 00:58 |
| daftykins | akurilin: it's purely down to your apache config really | 00:58 |
| wisescribe7 | cyphase: I am using an old video card, I might add. Dell Dimension 9100, 3GB RAM, and an ATI Radeon X300 | 00:59 |
| foo_ | hi | 00:59 |
| Sommerpils | hi foobar | 00:59 |

| wisescribe7 | Processor is P4 2.8 GHZ w/Hyper-Threading | 00:59 |
| vern | .. | 01:00 |
| wisescribe7 | cyphase: The problem is with HD video being out of sync and choppy, otherwise, it works fine. | 01:00 |
| cyphase | wisescribe7, is the correct video driver installed? | 01:00 |
| wisescribe7 | cyphase: No, I didn't install the video drivers specifically for the card after installing Ubuntu. | 01:02 |
| Yelu | akurilin: You are in control with defining that for you, but see https://duckduckgo.com/?q=apache+where+to+place+static+web+content+best+practices&kj=ct&kl=us-en&kn=1&kx=o | 01:02 |
| cyphase | wisescribe7, that may be why then. or possibly the video card can't handle HD video; i don't know | 01:02 |

| vern | yes but no graphics | 01:26 |
| Beldar | vern, That is a low graphic boot, so that you may get a desktop to load drivers from. | 01:27 |

| Guest30661 | laptops are bad with suspend | 01:41 |
| Beldar | Guest30661, #ubuntu+1 is the 14.04 channel until release. | 01:41 |
| Guest30661 | i used to have to drain my battery to get it to turn back on | 01:41 |
| Guest30661 | well. doesnt have to be in 14.04 i guess. 13.10 as well | 01:41 |
| Guest30661 | my hibernation option is always faded out. | 01:41 |
| Beldar | !14.04 | Guest30661 | 01:41 |

| Guest30661 | 13.10 as well | 01:42 |

| ljsoftnet | this is from cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep "\ install\ " http://pastebin.com/aKW8J7En how do i purge all of this? | 02:21 |
| Beldar | ljsoftnet, That was from a wine install right? And you want it all gone or the record of it's install? | 02:24 |
| nf7 | Is there a way to get the mouse to disappear when typing like it does in Windows and OS X? | 02:28 |
| ljsoftnet | Beldar yeah just want to purge all of them | 02:29 |
| Beldar | ljsoftnet, What ever the install command was run it as sudo apt-get purge "app name" | 02:30 |
| ljsoftnet | Beldar theres to many of them | 02:30 |
| Beldar | ljsoftnet, If you want to purge you do this with the main apps you installed, the dependencies are removed generally. | 02:32 |
| luanpab | daftykins: hi, i'm not sure if u will remember me | 02:33 |
| ljsoftnet | Beldar dont know where the main apps are | 02:34 |
| luanpab | but I came here earlier to ask about accessing the bios when the i've full disk encrypted | 02:34 |
| luanpab | i just like to share the solution, so if anyone have the same issue | 02:35 |
| luanpab | it is just install grub | 02:35 |
| luanpab | sudo apt-get install grub-pc | 02:35 |
| Beldar | ljsoftnet, So you don't remember what you installed within a couple hours today? Or how? | 02:35 |
| luanpab | restar the computer and I could acess the bios | 02:35 |

| melt7777 | ninjaaron u could get on pkgs.org i believe and get it | 02:51 |

| Bitwise | Hello. Does anyone have any experience with streaming? I'm trying to use VLC as an RTSP server but I can't access the stream, even on the LAN. I've already asked in #videolan Here is my stream output string: :sout=#duplicate{dst=rtp{sdp=rtsp://:8554/},dst=display} :sout-all :ttl=128 :sout-keep | 02:52 |
| melt7777 | ninjaaron, if u dont have apt-get u probably dont have apt-cache :) | 02:52 |
| Thanos | GOT crashed HBO GO last week too. | 02:53 |
| Guest7686 | my flash looks wonky http://i60.tinypic.com/6nzipi.jpg | 02:53 |
| tab1293 | Thanos no I think it has something to do with playing drm content | 02:53 |
| Guest7686 | someone suggested turning off hardware acceleration, which i did in both flash and firefox settings, but it didn't make a difference | 02:53 |
| Guest7686 | obviously, my hardware is old | 02:54 |
| ninjaaron | melt7777: oh crap. you're right. Looks like I don't have dpkg either. Looks like this install is probably toast. | 02:54 |
| Guest7686 | intel845g chipset | 02:54 |

| cs618_ | and the way i use xhat? | 02:55 |
| jellow | ninjaaron, are you positive it is not an issue with sudo and nothing to do with apt-get ? | 02:55 |
| melt7777 | cs618_ Yes, google "xchat howto" | 02:55 |
| melt7777 | cs618_, it even has pictures so u can read it! | 02:56 |
| xangua | Guest7686: not really a solution but you could try the html5 player youtube.com/html5 | 02:56 |
| ninjaaron | jellow: yeah. I tried it as root also. | 02:56 |
| cs618_ | thanks telt7777 | 02:56 |
| Guest7686 | xangua, the problem is that other uses of flash, like yahoo mail and other online tools and services will still be broken | 02:57 |
| ninjaaron | melt7777: yeah, it's probably a hardware failure. I got this computer used. I think it's like 12 years old. | 02:57 |
| melt7777 | ninjaaron, yes $50 might be a good investment on a new SSD :) | 02:57 |
| marellact | I am using Ubuntu server 12.04, Virtualbox 4.3.10, & SABNZB to download files. I can download files correctly but cannot 'stat' the files and move them to post download directories on the server. SABNZB runs on a virtual machine on the server, and downloads to mounted directories on the server. | 02:58 |
| melt7777 | marellact, sounds like a terrific questions for the author of that software, http://sabnzbd.org/ | 02:59 |
| marellact | I thought it was more of a permissions problem | 02:59 |
| melt7777 | most likely on their faq page | 02:59 |
| marellact | melt7777: I was wondering if anyone had some experience with permissions on a virtual machine and ubuntu server. | 03:00 |
| gassed | Trying to do an apt-upgrade and getting errors: Errors were encountered while processing: | 03:00 |
| gassed | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 03:00 |
| ninjaaron | melt7777: I've been thinking about getting an arm-based mini PC to replace it anyway. better power consumption and beter specs too. Timely also, now that we're almost to 14.04 Everything important is on external drives. | 03:00 |
| marellact | The downloads happen correctly, just cannot 'stat' the files, whatever that means. I cannot move them in the virtual machine but the files exist, can be executed, and I can move them on the server | 03:00 |
| melt7777 | ninjaaron, try #raspbian | 03:00 |
| pedrucho | j #ubuntu | 03:00 |
| gassed | marellact: that is still not likely a permissions problem | 03:01 |
| gassed | that would be a sabnzb setup issue -- and would need to be asked there | 03:02 |
| marellact | Hmm, I will check their irc channel then. But can someone tell me what 'stat' means? The permissions in 'ls -al' comes up as all question marks (???????) | 03:03 |
| ninjaaron | melt7777: oh. I am such an idiot! I ssh'd into the wrong host. I was trying to use apt-get on an arch-based desktop box, not my ubuntu server. Sorry for wasting your time! All is well | 03:03 |
| melt7777 | Facepalm | 03:03 |
| ljsoftnet | how do i purge multiple packages? | 03:03 |
| melt7777 | marellact sounds like a hard drive issue | 03:03 |
| melt7777 | ljsoftnet name them all | 03:04 |
| melt7777 | ok i am way too burned out here | 03:04 |
| melt7777 | later bitches | 03:04 |
| ninjaaron | melt7777: should still probably replace the box before this happens for real. | 03:04 |
| ljsoftnet | melt7777 there to many of them | 03:04 |
| betabertus8899 | how do i install office 2013 in ubuntu? | 03:04 |
| betabertus8899 | is it even possible with wine? | 03:04 |
| Beldar | betabertus8899, I don't think so . | 03:05 |
| betabertus8899 | i got office 2010 to run well but not 2013 | 03:05 |
| betabertus8899 | can you open libre office documents in office and vice versa? | 03:06 |
| ariscop_ | if you save them to office compatible formats yeah | 03:06 |
| ariscop_ | i think either 2010 or 2013 added .odf support as well | 03:06 |
| Beldar | betabertus8899, Yes, however in some circumstances the rendering is not identical. For my grad papers emailed for grading I use ms word only just to be safe. | 03:07 |
| gassed | dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/gnome-media_3.4.0-0ubuntu3.1_amd64.deb (--unpack) | 03:08 |
| betabertus8899 | ok cool thanx, i also have some work to hand in very soon all completed on libre | 03:09 |
| gbear14275 | Files in hidden folders have suddenly started showing up in dash... I turned it off before but can't seem to find the setting... | 03:09 |
| gbear14275 | How can I keep files in hidden folders from showing in dash results? | 03:09 |
| Beldar | gbear14275, what release and desktop? | 03:10 |
| betabertus8899 | yes i also want to know how to hide all the dash resluts | 03:10 |
| jellow | betabertus8899, I do not recommend using libre for .doc support there many issues with tables that may prevent you from saving | 03:10 |
| gbear14275 | 13.10 | 03:10 |
| betabertus8899 | ok i see | 03:10 |
| Beldar | gbear14275, Might be a preferences in nautilus, or use dconf-editor | 03:11 |
| marellact | Looking for someone with experience with virtual machines and permissions on ubuntu server. Permissions come up as question marks (???????) on the virtual machine, but look normal from the server. I've set all permissions on the server and in the virtual machine to '777' but permissions still show up as question marks | 03:13 |
| marellact | Hard drive working normally | 03:13 |
| jellow | betabertus8899, settings > Security and privacy > Search tab > and there is an off on button. | 03:14 |
| gbear14275 | Beldar, in dconf-editor... what would I change to ensure hidden folder contents are not shown in dash? | 03:15 |

| lotuspsychje | for the users who like to browse an android device from ubuntu i found some handy packages: go-mtpfs and go-mtpfs-unity | 03:54 |
| Miplo | Hi, do I need to permit root login on an Ubuntu server using SSH? Wouldn't the actual admin user be enough? (using sudo) | 03:55 |
| lotuspsychje | pedrucho: could you open ardour from terminal, to see what errors you get? | 03:56 |
| lotuspsychje | !ssh | Miplo | 03:56 |
| ubottu | Miplo: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 03:56 |
| Miplo | I'm not sure it matters but I'm considering Ubuntu 10.04 | 03:56 |
| lotuspsychje | !10.04 | Miplo | 03:56 |
| ubottu | Miplo: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) was the twelfth release of Ubuntu. Desktop support ended May 9 2013. Server support continues. See http://ubottu.com/y/lucid for more details. | 03:56 |
| pedrucho | lotuspsychje, i found out, ty | 03:56 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I think that's more of a security question, Miplo. Depends on your environment | 03:56 |
| Miplo | lotuspsychje: none of that seemed to say anything about that. | 03:57 |
| lotuspsychje | Miplo: whats you end goal? | 03:57 |
| mumixam | is there a page that tell the standard settings for software compiled for ubuntu? (eg. --prefix) | 03:57 |
| Miplo | EpicCyndaquil: as far as I know root user is disabled on Ubuntu, isn't it? So I guess I could just log in as the administrator and sudo my way out, right? | 03:57 |
| Miplo | lotuspsychje: having the ability to do administrative tasks on my server without having Root login enabled, if possible. | 03:58 |
| lotuspsychje | !compile | mumixam | 03:59 |
| ubottu | mumixam: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall | 03:59 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I think you should do some more reading, Miplo. If you're going to put up an SSH server, you should know this already. (Or even better- set up a test environment and try it yourself.) | 03:59 |

| rww | the latter breaks a lot ime | 04:40 |
| rww | gshmu: yes, I answered you | 04:40 |
| gshmu | rww: thanks | 04:41 |
| gshmu | can't turn off | 04:41 |
| rww | correct | 04:41 |
| ubuntufan2014 | ok one last question i want to use the christian edition of ubuntu becasue of the parental controls and the filters for porn and such. on the site there is onlt iso there isnt usb stick version do i need to convert? | 04:42 |
| gshmu | My firefox Mouse Wheel can't work, but Mouse Wheel it's ok | 04:42 |
| lotuspsychje | ubuntufan2014: you can parental control on regular ubuntu aswell | 04:43 |
| gshmu | sometimes can't work on firefox | 04:43 |
| rww | ubuntufan2014: Use the instructions I linked, they have you supply an ISO. | 04:43 |
| ubuntufan2014 | oh wait I think unetbootin site just answered that question..thanks | 04:43 |
| JBViewerr_007 | As far as I recall, the Christian Edition isn't being made any longer. Your version would be out of date. | 04:43 |
| ubuntufan2014 | I appreciate everyones help | 04:43 |
| ubuntufan2014 | it's on 12.04 right now for christian edition | 04:44 |
| JBViewerr_007 | the 12.04 version is two years old now... maybe you could install, then apply updates? | 04:46 |
| gshmu | My system Ubuntu 12.04 firefox 28.0 (Mouse Wheel can't work sometimes) | 04:47 |
| rww | assuming that works, which we don't know. which is why Ubuntu derivatives aren't supported in here :\ | 04:47 |
| Beldar | I don't use that edition, but I thought it was grandfathered. | 04:48 |
| rww | Beldar: elaborate on "grandfathered"? | 04:48 |
| Beldar | supported | 04:48 |
| Beldar | I'm not concerned necessarily, just thought it was | 04:49 |
| rww | Beldar: Nope. We don't have a grandfathering clause in here. Everything that's supported in #ubuntu is on the top part of http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/derivatives | 04:49 |
| Beldar | ah, cool, thanks | 04:49 |
| Flannel | rww: 12.04 is still a thing. But, Beldar, all it does is have different default programs, so you can install the filtering software (dansguardian, I believe, or at least used to be) on a regular Ubuntu install, etc. | 04:50 |
| Beldar | Flannel, That makes sense, thanks. | 04:51 |
| JBViewerr_007 | I think that it was Dansguardian and some Christian study guides, wallpapers, etc. | 04:52 |
| gshmu | not mouse wheel can't using on firefox, the blank can't work on webpages too | 05:00 |
| snufft | does anyone know how to escape semicolons in strings? I'm doing a comparison to say if my string = "$databases = array();" but the script aborts because it interprets the semicolon as the end of the line | 05:03 |
| snufft | this is for bash btw | 05:03 |
| snufft | I've tried backslash, but it sitll does it | 05:04 |
| somsip | snufft: use ' not " | 05:04 |
| somsip | snufft: eg, http://www.serverwatch.com/tutorials/article.php/3898896/Single-vs-Double-Quotes-in-Bash.htm | 05:04 |
| linux_ | hi everybody. I want to issue this command: dpkg -i kerio-control-vpnclient-###-linux.deb but I dont know the version to replace ### somebody can help me? | 05:05 |
| snufft | somsip, that yeilds the same error unfortunately :( syntax error in conditional expression: unexpected token `;' | 05:06 |
| ljsoftnet | is there a root wine mime file, i want to remove notepad from right click when i run pcmanfm as root | 05:06 |
| snufft | regardless of that's with or without the backslash as well | 05:06 |
| snufft | that's with or without the backslash as well** | 05:07 |
| somsip | snufft: Oh. I expected that to work. Well, maybe #bash would be a better place to ask then | 05:08 |
| snufft | somsip, no worries. i'll go check them out :) thanks for the reply! | 05:08 |
| codygman | How can I make my Alt_R key an extra Ctrl_R? Keysym? Do I need to unlock it first? I don't fully understand xmodmap. | 05:10 |
| snufft | somsip, you were right, the quotes did it :D I just forgot the space after the last single quote. I had if [[ $DBCRED == '$databases = array();']]; then instead of if [[ $DBCRED == '$databases = array();' ]]; then | 05:12 |
| somsip | snufft: ah. glad you found it | 05:12 |

| Bray90820 | Would there be a legal way to backup a bluray disc you own with ubuntu | 06:27 |
| ikonia | Bray90820: dd it | 06:29 |
| Bray90820 | dd? | 06:30 |
| ikonia | Bray90820: that will take a block by block copy of the disk, including encyption | 06:30 |
| ikonia | that way you are not breaking any encyption | 06:30 |
| ikonia | thus just a media backup | 06:30 |
| Bray90820 | I was hoping without encryption so I could play it back with my media center | 06:30 |
| ikonia | then it's not a backup | 06:30 |
| ikonia | you want to make a copy - which is illegal. | 06:31 |

| ikonia | Ascavasaion: look in network manager if there is an option for celular connection or wording to that meaning | 06:35 |
| Ascavasaion | ikonia: Nothing there, hence me wondering how to see if Linux even detects it. I have enabled it in the laptop's CMOS as well. | 06:36 |
| Bray90820 | ikonia: does handbreak also convert it to something like mp3 or wav without loosing quality | 06:36 |
| === ole_ is now known as ole_oz6oh | ||
| ikonia | Bray90820: "without losing quality" ?? the whole point of re-encoding it is it will change the quality based on the settings/container you use | 06:37 |

| ole_oz6oh | Help me Help me please | 06:39 |
| ikonia | ole_oz6oh: are you saying you can't install "micro" ? | 06:39 |

| Bray90820 | ikonia: i have a bluray disc with some music videos on it and i wanted to convert thoes music videos to audio without loosing audio quality | 06:39 |
| ikonia | Bray90820: then just re-encode the audio steam only, but use a lossles codec | 06:39 |
| ole_oz6oh | no i don't have problem with install only by running | 06:40 |
| Bray90820 | ikonia: does handbreak support that | 06:40 |
| ikonia | ole_oz6oh: what's the actual issue with it running | 06:40 |
| ikonia | Bray90820: you can just encode the audio to a seperate file, yes | 06:40 |
| Bray90820 | Alright | 06:40 |
| Bray90820 | That seems to be all the info i need | 06:40 |

| ole_oz6oh | ikonia i can se miro but when u go to thepiratebay and try vidio all stop | 06:42 |

| lukes- | hello. how can i include string in find command? like - find ./ -name *binary*.file -exec string word {} \; | 06:42 |
| ole_oz6oh | ikonia no ffor 3 dayes ago there was no problemes | 06:43 |
| ikonia | ole_oz6oh: that doesn't change what I just said | 06:43 |
| ikonia | lukes-: find doesn't search the contents of the file, you'd have to do something like a recursive grep | 06:43 |
| xar- | catsAre: could always install chkconfig; chkconfig --list | 06:44 |
| lukes- | yes but it's binary, and the output is way too long | 06:44 |
| ikonia | that's for redhat | 06:44 |
| lukes- | so grep wont do | 06:44 |
| ikonia | chkconfig = redhat | 06:44 |
| xar- | nope | 06:44 |
| ikonia | and that doesn't show running services | 06:44 |
| ikonia | that just shows the jobs | 06:44 |
| ole_oz6oh | ikoni i think my question is bad because my english is bad | 06:44 |
| xar- | i mean sure it's available on redhat, but there's an ubuntu package for chkconfig | 06:44 |
| catsAre | xar-: There is one command to do it | 06:44 |
| xar- | proof: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/admin/chkconfig | 06:45 |
| ole_oz6oh | ikonia can you speak on skype ?? | 06:45 |
| ikonia | XCoder2K_: yes, and it still does what I said it does | 06:45 |
| ikonia | ole_oz6oh: I have no wish to talk about pirate software with you | 06:45 |
| xar- | eat dem words :D | 06:45 |
| ikonia | xar-: "them" words | 06:45 |
| ikonia | or "those" | 06:46 |
| ikonia | xar-: and again - it doesn't show what's running | 06:46 |
| ikonia | xar-: it doesn't do any interaction with upstart either, and as ubuntu doesn't use systemV it's not really worth much | 06:46 |
| ole_oz6oh | ikonia its not forbitten to get a bbc movie | 06:46 |
| ikonia | ole_oz6oh: it is | 06:46 |
| xar- | you can always pipe chkconfig to service, one liner *shrug* | 06:47 |

| xar- | here's my process when i put linux on my laptop: fedora cd/dvd. did it work? nope. try mint. did it work? nope. try ubuntu. did it work? yes it worked! :D | 07:59 |
| andromeduck | also my pannel indicator appelt is gone :/ | 07:59 |
| andromeduck | lol | 07:59 |
| ikonia | xar-: any chance you could try to offer help rather than just random things | 07:59 |
| andromeduck | my problem is I've run into similar issues like 20 times already and every time it seems to be a diffrent issue | 08:00 |
| foolsgold | Restart and hold tab key just before ubuntu is loading. This will bring you into boot menu. | 08:00 |
| xar- | im not saying those distros are bad, im just incapable of troubleshooting weird issues, like audio for example | 08:00 |
| andromeduck | and it always pops out of the blue | 08:00 |
| andromeduck | no installs/configs or anything | 08:00 |
| ikonia | xar-: then don't help | 08:00 |
| andromeduck | it just stops working | 08:00 |
| foolsgold | Restart and hold tab key just before ubuntu is loading. This will bring you into boot menu. MCaveira | 08:00 |
| MCaveira | foolsgold, ok thanks. Will try that. Cheers. | 08:00 |

| ubottu | Baako: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 08:04 |

| ktosiek | wh-hw: I know there's something called that | 08:08 |

| freeman__ | hi guys how I can set my brightness level that it works on my Lenovo T510 with Nvidia drivers, the bar changes but not the brightness :( | 08:09 |
| wh-hw | ktosiek, do you know how to monitor multi process with same name ? | 08:09 |
| ktosiek | no clue, I've only used supervisord for custom process monitoring. But maybe others can help (and isn't there an IRC channel for monit?) | 08:11 |
| wh-hw | no | 08:11 |
| ktosiek | bummer :-< | 08:12 |
| wh-hw | can supervisord do that ? | 08:12 |
| andromeduck | freeman__, tried xbacklight? | 08:13 |
| lintguy | How do i fix the issue that suspend doesn't work and it doesn't wake up? | 08:13 |
| ktosiek | well, supervisord only monitors things it has spawned. But it can spawn a configured amount of one thing, and even has some support for sharing a socket | 08:13 |
| lintguy | I've got an Intel Q77 chip, so not an old motherboard | 08:13 |
| ktosiek | OTOH it doesn't have m/monit, and I'm not sure if it has much of notification support | 08:14 |
| wh-hw | ktosiek, ok, thanks | 08:14 |
| foolsgold | lintguy: that's Linux weak spot | 08:14 |

| k1l | lintguy: that depends on your specific hardware. try to look out if there are known issues with that hardware regarding suspend | 08:16 |
| Rory | PatBateman: locate searches an index, find goes through all the directories in real-time | 08:16 |
| Rory | PatBateman: You can update the index with the "sudo updatedb" command, see how long it takes to actually build a list of all your files | 08:16 |
| PatBateman | Rory: i see, thanks, and if the file isnt indexed, result is none right? | 08:17 |
| lintguy | hateball: Yeah, i tested 3.13.3 but no go. | 08:17 |

| lintguy | but shouldn't they be in the kernel already? | 08:20 |
| ktosiek | lintguy: I'd start with grepping through kernel changelog | 08:20 |
| ktosiek | but the names kernel guys use are othen different from marketing names, so that might be a problem :-< | 08:21 |
| lintguy | ktosiek: Ok, i'll start with that then. Maybe yank some usb's | 08:21 |
| k1l | most times its missing modules to load after resume | 08:21 |

| Ascavasaion | If I installed an application after extracting it into a folder and using ./install How do I uninstall it again? I no longer want it on my system. | 10:32 |
| Rory | keevitaja: Open Software Sources program, go to Other Software, and untick the relevant repository from the list | 10:33 |
| Rory | Ascavasaion: You would have to look at what ./install did, and manually remove each file | 10:33 |
| Rory | Ascavasaion: Assuming the program doesn't come with an uninstall utility | 10:33 |
| Ascavasaion | Rory, then I am screwed. | 10:33 |

| m0e42 | what is the prefered method of runnin win7 in an vm on an root server. os is ubuntu 12.04 lts | 13:29 |
| m0e42 | i use promox here on a local machine. but it's only available as an iso so i can't use it on the server | 13:29 |
| m0e42 | the thing is i will not admin the system, i need an web/x based setup for an unexperienced user. cli wont do the trick for him ;). the problem is i can't install an own image so i had to set it up by hand | 13:29 |
| ActionParsnip | m0e42: what is a 'root server'? | 13:29 |
| m0e42 | you know hosted servers like server4you or hetzner? no vserver, it's a bare xeon maschine | 13:31 |
| ActionParsnip | m0e42: then what is 'root' about it? | 13:31 |
| ActionParsnip | m0e42: do you mean like an ESX host? | 13:31 |
| bekks | ActionParsnip: basically an abbreviation for full access. | 13:31 |
| m0e42 | yep | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | m0e42: then that's not a 'root server', it's not even a thing | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | bekks: dude is basically making up words | 13:32 |
| Archos | Hehe | 13:32 |
| OnkelTem | Hi all | 13:32 |
| bekks | ActionParsnip: I just read his backlog. Indeed he is. | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | m0e42: you can run ESX in headless mode and manage it using the virtual infrastructure client | 13:33 |
| m0e42 | esx is also only available as an iso. so it won't work. i can only install a few os on the server. Ubuntu12.04/centOS and windows2003 | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | m0e42: virtualbox then (maybe) | 13:35 |
| m0e42 | o.O | 13:35 |
| bekks | m0e42: Install the hypervisor of your choice and create a vm. | 13:35 |
| m0e42 | yep thats workin for me. but i also need a DAU safe interface, prefered webbased | 13:37 |
| bekks | m0e42: Then installed the webbased solution for your chosen hypervisor. | 13:38 |
| bekks | m0e42: And letting people access and deal with the hypervisor is a BAD idea when they have no clue about it. The best example is a Windows 7 VM on a publically reachable server on the internet. Dont do it. Dont. Do not. | 13:39 |
| guest32424343 | i have to use terminal to access /var/www/ is they any where i can access it without using terminal? the "files" application(default ubuntu files) doesnt have an upper level | 13:40 |
| m0e42 | thats what i thought too. thing i will setup a webvirtMgr on this machine and setup the neccessary vms myself. | 13:40 |
| bekks | m0e42: You just shouldnt setup a Windows desktop on the internet. | 13:40 |
| m0e42 | i won't set the vm public accessable. only from our VPN | 13:41 |
| === Guest44070 is now known as deb | ||
| bekks | m0e42: As long as the server is reachable on the internet, it is reachable on the internet. | 13:42 |
| === deb is now known as Guest99360 | ||
| ActionParsnip | bekks: unless you set access rules in iptables etc ;) | 13:42 |
| m0e42 | not if i set an internal ip and set my iptables right | 13:43 |
| m0e42 | the windoze machine won't get an public IP. only a VPN ip | 13:43 |

| ikonia | Guest94072: there isn't an ubuntu.exe | 13:46 |
| ikonia | Guest94072: you need to download an ISO image | 13:46 |
| Guest94072 | I know, but the last image I downloaded was the windows installer version, where can I get a bootable version | 13:46 |
| ikonia | Guest94072: you need to get an iso and burn it to a bootable media (dvd/usb stick etc) | 13:47 |
| Pici | Guest94072: they all are bootable versions. | 13:47 |
| Touhou11 | Guest94072: It's possible to make a Linux distribution show a Windows "installer" in addition to being bootable, they're not exclusive | 13:48 |
| glambert | what is this RTNETLINK answers: file exists message supposed to mean when trying to do an ifup? | 13:48 |
| Guest94072 | No, I downloaded an image from the ubuntu website and when I burned it, there was a file called Wubi.exe on it | 13:48 |

| Felishia | how do I install ubuntu in a computer that has kubuntu?... | 14:16 |
| Felishia | without deleting anything... specially my dev-libraries | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: install the ubuntu-desktop meta package, the OSes under the hood are identical | 14:16 |
| Felishia | I was thinking about sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 14:16 |
| Felishia | ActionParsnip, is it as I said?... sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 14:17 |
| Felishia | I don't want to take risks! | 14:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: where is the risk? | 14:17 |
| Felishia | ActionParsnip, my dev libraries overriden, including qt dev libraries | 14:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: if you are worried thenrun a full backup of your data and you'll be fine | 14:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: the libraries will not be touched by adding the new session | 14:18 |
| Felishia | ActionParsnip, and will the jvm work properly then? | 14:19 |
| Felishia | I mean I have a problem with the jvm on kubuntu | 14:19 |
| Felishia | suddenly fails | 14:19 |
| jhutchins | The fix for the heartbleed bug confused a lot of people because most distributions simply patched the specific code and incremented the least significant value of their version number, leaving the primary version number matching the upstream version that still had the problem (1.0.1e), while upstream OpenSSL incremented the major version to 1.0.1g. | 14:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: yes, you will just have another option to log in to in the login screen, nothing more | 14:19 |
| Felishia | specially when saving a file, which is totally ridiculous, sometimes I can't save my file on eclipse neither do recover | 14:20 |
| Felishia | ActionParsnip, I think you're not getting me, I want to install ubuntu-desktop because I'm having trouble with the jvm on kubuntu | 14:20 |
| Felishia | and I wonder if they'll be solved | 14:21 |
| john_doe_jr | is there something like yast on ubuntu? | 14:21 |
| jhutchins | Felishia: kubuntu is the same java packages as ubnutu. | 14:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: how will a new desktop sort your issue? | 14:21 |
| jhutchins | Felishia: kubuntu is just ubuntu with the KDE desktop. | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: ^ | 14:22 |
| Felishia | but when I run with fluxbox everything goes well and the jvm works amazingly, but on kde it like explodes all the time, suddenly the process terminates | 14:22 |
| Felishia | specially when saving the file | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: all you are doing is changing the ffront end to the same OS | 14:22 |
| Felishia | so I think it's a bug with KDE | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Felishia: maybe its a bug with KDE | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | zing | 14:22 |
| Felishia | ActionParsnip, because it's only with new dialogs... | 14:22 |
| Felishia | it says something about ulimit -e ulimited | 14:23 |
| jhutchins | Felishia: That's possible, simply install unity or gnome, or even xfce, and see if you have the problem when you use those desktops. | 14:23 |
| jhutchins | Felishia: The underlying code is the same. | 14:23 |
| Felishia | jhutchins, I don't have the problem with fluxbox | 14:23 |
| GraemeLion | Felishia: Then there is something else going on. | 14:23 |
| Felishia | however on KDE the jvm works if I run it as root | 14:23 |
| jhutchins | Felishia: Then it sounds like you have solved your problem. | 14:23 |
| jhutchins | !next | 14:23 |
| GraemeLion | I would highly not recommend running anything as root that does not need to be run as root. | 14:23 |
| Felishia | GraemeLion, the jvm doesn't work properly on KDE if I don't run it as root | 14:24 |
| slikts | GraemeLion: but then you have to waste time entering the password | 14:24 |
| seanbright | i have a dell r420 with an equallogic HBA installed and i would like to install 12.04 directly to an iscsi volume and use that as a root partition. is that possible or am i wasting my time? | 14:25 |
| slikts | GraemeLion: running everything as admin worked for windows xp, so why is ubuntu so insecure that you need to bother about it? | 14:25 |
| GraemeLion | slikts: ... | 14:25 |
| slikts | that's what an antivirus is for anyway | 14:26 |
| GraemeLion | Felishia: as I said, then something else is going on here. | 14:26 |
| GraemeLion | slikts: It's way too early for sarcasm for me :D | 14:26 |
| Felishia | GraemeLion, I believe it's a bug in KDE | 14:26 |
| Felishia | Gonna get back to Ubuntu, I've found too many bugs in KDE | 14:27 |
| Felishia | even when it looks amazing | 14:27 |

| Pici | jamar: the multimon package description looks like it might be able to do that... but I really have no idea what I'm looking at. (also you may want to check out #ubuntu-hams and ##hamradio, although again, I know next to nothing about such things myself) | 15:20 |

| john_rambo | I cant boot with the latest kernel after update http://paste.ubuntu.com/7249801/ | 15:32 |
| wheatthin | MDTech-us_MAN_, sounds like it's not recognizing DKMS with your installed driver (quick hunch) .. check dmesg for further detail | 15:32 |
| Rory | john_rambo: Can you boot with another kernel? | 15:32 |
| john_rambo | Rory, Yes | 15:32 |
| Rory | john_rambo: My recommendation is to boot from a LiveCD (or USB) and run the "boot repair" tool. This tool fixes 90% of the grub related issues we see in this channel. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 15:32 |

| bekks | MDTech-us_MAN_: "wheatthin: ha! try to guess the ip address!" - thats what I refer to. | 15:40 |

| MDTech-us_MAN_ | bekks: of the problematic computer | 15:43 |
| dusf123 | bekks: i have read the !uefi documentation, but even at that i am not clear on whether it is possible ubuntu and windows 8.1 uefi gpt will just work *without* disabling fast boot and secureboot, or anything else in windows? have you any experience? i can disable those features if i must, but if i can dual boot without doing so i would prefer to | 15:45 |

| sdegutis | Can I just do `dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sdb1` to create a portable version of my linux installation (assuming my linux is on /dev/sda1 and a USB is on /dev/sdb1)? | 16:32 |
| cybrNaut | i had to run hybridiso before copying the iso. any idea why? is there a reason they distribute a non-hybrid iso? | 16:32 |
| JCM83 | slart in syslog? | 16:33 |
| JCM83 | let me watch it | 16:33 |
| Slart | JCM83: never had that happen to me... is it a normal fs? NTFS? FAT? | 16:33 |
| cybrNaut | sdegutis: that may not be enough... why not copy the whole drive? | 16:33 |
| Slart | JCM83: have a look and see if you can get some more information out of it | 16:33 |

| cybrNaut | sdegutis: also make sure both devices are unmounted | 16:35 |
| sdegutis | cybrNaut: so that may be not necessary right? | 16:35 |
| cybrNaut | sdegutis: well your boot records won't get copied if you just copy the partition | 16:35 |
| sdegutis | cybrNaut: Oh wait, they have to be unmounted? I was hoping to do this while booted into /dev/sda1 | 16:35 |
| Slart | JCM83: mm.. looks like something is using sudo.. perhaps for emptying trash.. nothing else? | 16:35 |
| cybrNaut | sdegutis: so if you just copy the partition, then you'll need to run grub or something to make it bootable | 16:36 |
| sdegutis | cybrNaut: Oh, I didn't know where the boot records are stored. Thanks. | 16:36 |
| cybrNaut | sdegutis: it's best to boot a live dvd/stick, and then use dd | 16:36 |

| sdegutis | cybrNaut: Ah. Thanks. | 16:36 |
| cybrNaut | sdegutis: if you boot a live distro, then you can have all devices unmounted except the live one | 16:37 |
| sdegutis | cybrNaut: Ah so then I'd need 2 USBs. | 16:37 |
| sdegutis | cybrNaut: One for the live USB to boot, and one for the target USB. | 16:37 |
| cybrNaut | sdegutis: yes. although there are other ways.. it's easier if you boot a live disk | 16:38 |

| hackal | Hello, I am running wordpress on ubuntu 13.04. It is on digitalocean VPS. I bought domain and changed dns records so it redirects to my ubuntus IP (apache2). However upon visiting from browser with domain name it sends me to server but changes domain name to IP. How could I avoid that and only showing domain name in url? | 17:22 |
| lotuspsychje | !13.04 | hackal | 17:22 |

| ActionParsnip | gmachine_24: nmap your subnet | 17:26 |
| CatKiller | hackal: Sometimes when you run a VPS you share the same IP with many other "tenants". The VPS company then runs a http proxy at the frontend to redirect requests to the appropriate tenant. If that's not configured correctly that could affect these URLs | 17:28 |
| cr33p | sup | 17:28 |
| CatKiller | also, if apache is misconfigured this could happen | 17:29 |
| CatKiller | But technically if apache is configured with the defaults it doesn't rewrite the target urls | 17:29 |
| hackal | CatKiller: DigitalOcean has option to build VPS with installed latest wordpress so I think apache was reconfigured | 17:30 |
| CatKiller | hackal: So it sounds like they might be able to help | 17:30 |
| hackal | It is pre-configured ubuntu for wordpress | 17:30 |

| ActionParsnip | Randomguy9900: ok remove the '--upload' from the command and select to not upload, then pastebin the generated file | 17:36 |
| bekks | zzxc: Add a bind mount entry in your fstab. | 17:36 |
| zzxc | bekks: Yeah I was debating on that, but I have 12 mount points, which makes it much easier to mount. Also since this is on AWS. I don't exactly have an easy was to fix this go in wrong. | 17:37 |
| zzxc | easier to mount using a script* | 17:38 |
| bekks | zzxc: Then add 12 entries to your fstab. | 17:38 |
| bekks | zzxc: Add the entries, check wether they work fine using "mount -a", and you are done. | 17:38 |
| zzxc | Don't I have to unmount everything to use mount -a? | 17:39 |
| ActionParsnip | zzxc: mount -a doesnt unmount anything | 17:39 |
| === tcpman is now known as Guest61663 | ||
| zzxc | ActionParsnip: Right, but it reads through the fstab entry and mounts all of the points. Wouldn't that case an issue since all of the devices are already mounted? | 17:41 |
| bekks | zzxc: It mounts them if they arent mounted. | 17:42 |

| bekks | chowder: Yes, but I have no clue. Until now, no one managed to make me use encryption :) | 17:53 |
| dupingping | Hi | 17:55 |
| chowder | bekks: ah ok. I use it in case my machine gets stolen. I have a lot of important information. Basically I'm booting but its not decrypting my main data partition. | 17:56 |
| dupingping | Can you help me? | 17:56 |
| dupingping | Ah, my mistake. | 17:56 |

| dupingping | sorry. | 17:56 |
| Randomguy9900_ | Action Parsnip: My computer died on me suddenly, though now I have power. What should I enter in the command line again? And what ouput/file should I copy paste here? | 17:56 |

| Randomguy9900_ | Nevermind. He's gone. Could someone please help a linux beginner get his sound working on his laptop loading with Lubuntu? I've tried messing around with alsa stuff, and can get the alsamixer in terminal, but never get sound out. Thanks | 17:58 |
| Randomguy9900_ | *loaded with | 17:58 |
| chowder | Randomguy9900_: Do you know how to use the command line at all? | 17:59 |
| Randomguy9900_ | I know "how" to use it. But not very well | 17:59 |
| chowder | Randomguy9900_, I need you to type this without quotes: "sudo lspci" it'll ask for your password but nothing will appear. Rest assured that your password is being typed. Hit enter. This will display things like networks cards and sound cards. You'll want to paste the output at paste.ubuntu.com. Then paste the link to that here. | 18:02 |
| gmachine_24 | ok.... so... got the Brother DCP-J140W printer/scanner set up so the (wireless network) printer works fine in Ubuntu saucy; also d/led the scanner drivers from Brother - they seemed to install OK - sane-utils are installed; the scanner is SUPPOSED to work by just pressing the "Scan" key - but it does not . . . so I'm wondering if there is alternate access to the scanner from my Ubuntu desktop | 18:04 |
| chowder | Randomguy9900_, the output should have quite a few things. The relevant line(s) will say "Audio Device:" at the beginning | 18:04 |
| Randomguy9900_ | chowder: I have used lspci before. Though thank you very much for the walkthrough | 18:04 |

| chowder | Randomguy9900_, oh ok. I didn't realize that you were experienced. I'm fairly certain that particular sound card works out of the box. What version of Ubuntu are you running? | 18:05 |
| server_ | && ./install.sh | 18:05 |
| gmachine_24 | I tried "simple scan" but it says no scanner is found | 18:06 |

| Randomguy9900_ | I've tried both the headphone jack and regular speakers, and have messed with different levels in the mixer | 18:06 |
| Randomguy9900_ | Although I have been testing it using youtube on the included firefox. If there may be an issue in between that and drivers, are there test files somewhere possibly? Or should I download a sound file? | 18:07 |
| chowder | Randomguy9900_, you could download a sound file. Is pulseaudio running? | 18:09 |
| Randomguy9900_ | chowder: I'll go download some file to use. I'm not familiar with pulseaudio | 18:10 |
| hje841 | I have a disk with full disk encryption that I want to access files on. It is from another laptop that is faulty so I want to recover the files.

| Randomguy9900_ | chowder: Using a test file, and messing with alsamixer levels I still get no sound through speakers or headphones | 18:14 |

| bradsguitar | what should i enter as the device URI on an epson xp-310 i have installed | 18:14 |

| daftykins | bradsguitar: whatever the guide to set it up says to | 18:15 |
| bradsguitar | i dont have a guide | 18:15 |
| bekks | bradsguitar: then you should download it from the epson website. | 18:16 |
| Randomguy9900_ | chowder: It is not in there (I do have to go in a minute so please post any last minute ideas before I leave if you can) | 18:16 |
| chowder | Randomguy9900_, pulseaudio does the bulk of the sound work. Messing with alsa might not be it. My suggestion would be to research pulseaudio. It might be something simple like a kernel module thats not loaded too. Google your sound card and search for the appropriate kernel module | 18:17 |
| r3s | Randomguy9900_, have you tried alsa force-reload ? | 18:17 |
| chowder | use lsmod to list the kernel modules | 18:17 |
| chowder | rmmod will remove a module | 18:17 |
| chowder | insmod (I think) will insert a module | 18:17 |
| chowder | Randomguy9900_, your card is VERY common. I'm sure that this issue is out there in google. Don't give up! | 18:18 |
| chowder | Randomguy9900_, google your sound card and write something like "no sound" "ac97" | 18:18 |

| daftykins | Baako: anyway my point is that you're using the channel for 'how do i learn to administrate apache' and it's kinda wearing thin now :) you need to learn a bit more by yourself. as my last input though, you're going to want to double check all is well by restarting apache, then look into the access logs for whether your browser connection is successfully being permitted to read whatever index is in your newly defined site. also, file pe | 18:25 |

| bekks | scrubfest: which may happen if the usb port is inapproriate for charging. | 18:42 |
| BradPJ | Hey quick question regarding kernels. Ubuntu stores all old kernels in /boot and doesn't remove them when new kernels are released right? When removing these kernels, removing everything using the version number of the kernel is the way to do it? Including abi-* config-* etc? | 18:43 |

| mferranti | Hey everyone. Is anyone using rsync in production? I'm doing some research about backup tools and would like to ask you some questions. | 18:44 |
| bekks | BradPJ: USe your package management system to uninstall old kernel versions. Do not remove them manually. | 18:44 |
| bekks | mferranti: Then ask your questions. Thousands of people use rsync productively. | 18:44 |
| scrubfest | I lost internet connection for a few seconds, did what I write pop up? | 18:44 |

| BradPJ | scrubfest: I know nothing about iOS on Ubuntu, I gave up years ago, but checking out that link you posted - it was written last year. iOS has changed since then so it may not work anymore. It MAY work, it just also may not. That would NOT effect the ability to charge however, that appears to be a different problem. | 18:48 |

| bekks | mferranti: "what do you like about it" is totally irrelevant in every support channel. Do you have specific support related questions about rsync? | 18:49 |
| daftykins | melkor: partition the SSD, then copy the whole data over from a live session | 18:50 |
| BradPJ | melkor ; I do backups frequently using RSync and restoring them using RSync. RSync will allow you to move the installation to new drive, if you know how to repair the FStab and install a bootloader on the new drive. | 18:50 |
| daftykins | melkor: you'll need to look into the man page of 'cp' to maintain all permissions etc. | 18:51 |
| yelu | hackal: yes you can create it manually | 18:51 |
| chowder | melkor: I would use dd to copy it over | 18:51 |
| daftykins | hackal: if it's a clean install it may be named something else. is a website working from http://localhost/ ? | 18:51 |
| BradPJ | melkor ; Using rsync with the -aAXV options keeps permissions correct. | 18:51 |
| chowder | melkor, but be very careful with dd. make sure you read the man page | 18:51 |
| BradPJ | melkor -aAXv sorry | 18:51 |

| melkor | chowder: I was curious about dd when I have an ssd and an hdd. Do you know if that will cause an issue? | 18:52 |
| BradPJ | chowder ; I know how to use RSync as I got my daily cron job using it and my disks are different sizes. | 18:52 |
| chowder | daftykins: good point. | 18:52 |
| daftykins | dd is a bad idea | 18:52 |
| chowder | melkor: daftykins has a good point. with dd you would be copying empty space and if you have a limited amount of space then rsync would be best. | 18:53 |
| melkor | The disks are the same size. | 18:54 |
| daftykins | you want to minimise writes to SSDs | 18:54 |

| k1l | quantanamera: check if the hardware is ok. then: what happend as there was no sound the first time? | 19:14 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: One, I haven't tried this application under Ubuntu before. Installing it now, I'll let you know on something. | 19:14 |
| BradPJ | one sec* | 19:14 |
| vaskozl | Hey lovely people! | 19:14 |
| === Jordan_U_ is now known as Jordan_U | ||
| quantanamera | BradPJ, thank you! | 19:15 |
| JuneBUG | Guarira Guatanamera.........Quantanameraaaaaaaaa, Guarira Quantanamera... | 19:15 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: Right try installing pavucontrol - It gives better control over audio devices then sound settings does. | 19:15 |
| rww | JuneBUG: have an Ubuntu support question we can help you with? | 19:16 |
| vaskozl | I have a quick question anyone should be able to answer: If I've uninstalled unity, lightdm, music players and such, replacing them.. What happens when I sudo dist-upgrade to 14.04 when it comes out? | 19:16 |
| quantanamera | k1l, the hardware is ok. this happens occasionally after inserting headphones. there is still sound with headphones. | 19:16 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera When changing between headphone it is possible it changes the type of device. You can configure this under pavucontrol, you can also tell where to make the output come out of. | 19:16 |
| Jordan_U | !upgrade | vaskozl | 19:16 |
| ubottu | vaskozl: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 19:16 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera : Yeah sounds like under pavucontrol, go to output devices and changing the port to speakers will fix it. | 19:16 |
| vaskozl | Jordan_U: ehh I was looking for an answer to my question | 19:17 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, ok, installing pavucontrol now | 19:17 |
| vaskozl | not how to upgrade | 19:17 |
| vaskozl | especially considering I don't have unity | 19:17 |
| vaskozl | what would happen if I were to upgrade with all the packages that I have uninstalled? | 19:17 |
| vaskozl | would they be installed again? | 19:18 |
| rww | vaskozl: hrm. Do you have any *-desktop metapackages installed? | 19:18 |
| vaskozl | will check | 19:18 |
| Jordan_U | vaskozl: In the past, upgrade notes have recommended that you have at least one ubuntu- metapackage installed when you upgrade. I expect the same advice will be given for upgrading to 14.04. | 19:18 |
| vaskozl | Jordan_U, rww: how do I check please | 19:19 |
| scrubfest | Is there a command in terminal to escape the current action? | 19:19 |
| bekks | scrubfest: which action? | 19:19 |
| scrubfest | bekks like installing a program | 19:20 |
| rww | vaskozl: apt-cache policy ubuntu-desktop | 19:20 |
| bekks | scrubfest: you dont terminate such actions. | 19:20 |
| vaskozl | thx | 19:20 |
| Jordan_U | vaskozl: dpkg -l | grep -- '-desktop ' | 19:20 |
| rww | vaskozl: oh, Jordan_U's is probably better | 19:20 |
| * urda is so excite about 14.04 | 19:21 | |
| rww | (I use aptitude and know how to do it there, but... aptitude.) | 19:21 |
| scrubfest | What do you mean? I can force quit terminal, that would do the trick. | 19:21 |
| vaskozl | rww, Jordan_U : http://pastie.org/private/ohmhoryosshipub26shfq | 19:21 |
| bekks | scrubfest: And it will leave you with broken packages. Thats not what you want. | 19:21 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, when you said pavucontrol I'd thought this was another software. I already have pulse audio, and the output is set to speakers. but still no sound | 19:22 |
| scrubfest | So if I regret installing something midway I should wait | 19:22 |
| scrubfest | and then remove it? | 19:22 |
| rww | scrubfest: correct | 19:22 |
| rww | vaskozl: okay, so not installed | 19:22 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: pavucontrol is similar to Sound Settings, but gives more control. | 19:22 |
| vaskozl | so what happens when I dist-upgrade when 14.04 comes out? | 19:22 |
| rww | vaskozl: I *think* it won't install ubuntu-desktop and its packages again. It will tell you what it's going to do before it does it (at least do-release-upgrade on the command-line does), and I'd recommend checking that carefully before saying OK. | 19:22 |
| scrubfest | Does ubuntu multi-task so to speak. I can install a program, minimize the installtion and it will keep going. Right? | 19:23 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera What does it say the device is under Configuration ? | 19:23 |
| vaskozl | rww: thx, you answered my question perfectly | 19:23 |
| scrubfest | I feel like it's only unpacking when I have the window open | 19:23 |
| === AntiSpamMeta2 is now known as AntiSpamMeta | ||
| quantanamera | BradPJ, it says Analog Stereo Duplex | 19:23 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera : That sounds all correct. And sound works with Headphones still but not speakers? | 19:24 |
| Jordan_U | vaskozl: So you don't have any of the -desktop packages installed. I don't remember if the old recommendation of re-installing ubuntu-desktop was there to avoid upgrade dependency issues, or just to ensure that you have a completely functional (GUI login with expected functionality) system post-upgrade. I expect it was the latter, in which case it would be safe to not install ubuntu-desktop as long as you're aware of what ... | 19:24 |
| Jordan_U | ... packages you actually need, and are OK with the prospect of possibly not being able to login graphically after upgrade if you forget something important. | 19:25 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, that's how it is | 19:25 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: Is anything muted under pavucontrol? This is really weird. I get the same issue (rarely but still occurs) and all whats happened is that my output is set to headphones. | 19:25 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, no, all sounds are on. | 19:26 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: I'm not sure what else to say. Have you checked alsamixer? Speakers could be muted there I guess but I don't see why it would be. | 19:27 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, solved. | 19:27 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: Ah that's great news! What was the problem? | 19:27 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, the sound symbol on system tray is not shown as mute, so I never thought of checking the sound button on the hardware. | 19:28 |
| === thewisenerd is now known as thewisenerd_away | ||
| quantanamera | it had been turned off | 19:28 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, strange, I'd expect the sound to be shown "off" when the hardware button was pressed | 19:29 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: Ahh at least it was something simple I guess. Glad you got it sorted. Yeah that is rather weird though. | 19:30 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera : Don't forget to uninstall pavucontrol if you don't need or want it :) | 19:31 |
| Chewy64 | Is there an effective way to mirror drives on the desktop version of 12.04? | 19:31 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, sorry for taking your time in vain! | 19:32 |
| Anton-Vidovich | how i can install spoonwep on ubuntu 13.10 | 19:32 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, pavucontrol is useful, I use it from time to time | 19:32 |
| bekks | !info spoonwep | Anton-Vidovich | 19:32 |
| ubottu | Anton-Vidovich: Package spoonwep does not exist in saucy | 19:33 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera : No problem at all! I'm sure I've done similar things to people in the past haha. | 19:33 |
| Anton-Vidovich | ubottu thanx bro | 19:33 |
| dusf123 | small /home partition and a large data partition or just one large /home partition? | 19:33 |
| quantanamera | BradPJ, thank you very much for your kind help! | 19:34 |
| k1l | Anton-Vidovich: wifi hacking is not supported in this channel, thanks | 19:34 |
| Jordan_U | Chewy64: Are you trying to RAID existing partitions/volumes or are you wanting to create a new array? Or alternately, are you just reffering to backups rather than RAID? | 19:34 |
| BradPJ | dusf123 : My personal set up is to have a storage folder in /home and one large home partition. Especially if you use Steam, by default games are installed in your home folder and so you may need more space than you imagine. | 19:34 |
| Anton-Vidovich | ok i want just information for that | 19:35 |
| BradPJ | dusf123 ; I then symlink my Music, Document folders etc to my home directory. | 19:35 |
| BradPJ | quantanamera: No problem at all. | 19:35 |
| k1l | Anton-Vidovich: see the projects documentation | 19:35 |
| DammitJim | does ubuntu normally ask for what services need to be restarted after upgrading openssl? | 19:35 |
| Anton-Vidovich | ok bro thanx | 19:35 |
| wences | hola | 19:36 |
| Anton-Vidovich | hola too | 19:36 |
| quantanamera | hola three | 19:37 |
| Anton-Vidovich | hola four | 19:37 |
| dusf123 | BradPJ: interesting. i thought one advantqnage of a small home would be that it could be easily backed up and restored with all our settings | 19:37 |
| quantanamera | Anton-Vidovich reminds me of Anton Pavlovic (Chekhov) | 19:38 |
| Jordan_U | dusf123: You only need to disable fastboot (or otherwise set your Ubuntu install CD/USB as a boot device) once to install. Once Ubuntu is installed, you can re-enable fast boot. And I generally recommend against having a separate /home/ partition at all. The main reason I can think of for having a separate data partition is if that data needs to be shared between Ubuntu and Windows. | 19:38 |
| Anton-Vidovich | i proud on my name | 19:38 |
| BradPJ | dusf123: If you kept a storage folder and your home directory you would still get that benefit. You could backup home /home/dusf123 which would NOT have any music, documents etc in as they could be in your /home/storage folder | 19:38 |
| quantanamera | yes, sounds like a classical novel hero. | 19:39 |
| dusf123 | BradPJ: also, having a separate data partition would allow easy sharing of data betweeen windows, ubuntu, debian etc | 19:39 |
| dusf123 | Jordan_U: that is great news re fast boot, thank you :) see my previous on sharing data. i like a separate home for reinstalling and clean vinstalling | 19:39 |
| Anton-Vidovich | thanx quantanamera | 19:39 |
| BradPJ | dusf123: If you are dualbooting with Windows then I do recommend a seperate data partition. If sharing data between multiple Linux's then one big home is probably better. You could still share the /home/storage between all Linux distro's. | 19:40 |
| * dusf123 digests | 19:40 | |
| BradPJ | My home folder looks like .. /home/arch/brad, /home/ubuntu/brad and /home/storage. Both distro's have access to my /home/storage and are symlinked to it. | 19:41 |
| quantanamera | call me Dimitry Ivanov Ivanovich | 19:41 |
| quantanamera | my pleasure | 19:41 |
| dusf123 | you have different linux distros using one single /home partition? | 19:41 |
| Jordan_U | dusf123: Ubuntu's installer can handle re-installing while perserving /home/ even when /home/ is just a directory within your root filesystem. | 19:41 |
| BradPJ | dusf123, Yes, but with different home directories | 19:42 |
| dusf123 | Jordan_U: i was not aware of that. also, clonezilla can only back up partitions | 19:42 |
| === FreezingAlt is now known as FreezingCold | ||
| dusf123 | Jordan_U: i feel there is less chance of me breaking something if /home is separate | 19:43 |

| jhutchins | dusf123: Clonezilla can do several things besides partclone. | 19:46 |
| dusf123 | BradPJ: i never saw an option in the ubuntu installer to select /home as a directory of a partition rather than just a partition? | 19:46 |
| dusf123 | jhutchins: it also diskclones | 19:46 |
| BradPJ | dusf123 : Oh yeah that's right. I moved my directory after I installed. | 19:46 |
| dusf123 | jhutchins: it can backup single directories? | 19:46 |

| quantanamera | could you please help me as to how can I make itunes work on 12.04. (64bit) ? I already installed wine | 19:48 |
| Chewy64 | jhutchins, I only have one OS sitting ontop. Everything else sits in VMs, so I'm not sharing HOME with anything, | 19:48 |
| BradPJ | jhutchins: That's why I've recommened my set up .. /home/storage /home/arch/brad /home/ubuntu/brad . I then symlink in both home directories to /home/storage. Keeps my settings and files seperate. | 19:48 |

| ikonia | quantanamera: correct | 19:49 |
| quantanamera | dear Anton-Vidovich, I'd requested you to call me Dimitry Ivanov Ivanovich | 19:50 |
| BradPJ | dusf123 : usermod -md /my/new/home would move your home directory and files if you was ever interested in doing it. | 19:50 |
| jhutchins | quantanamera: iTunes wants low-level acccess to hardware that can't happen in Linux, even with Wine. | 19:50 |
| quantanamera | I don't disclose personal details on public channels, Anton-Vidovich. | 19:51 |
| Chewy64 | Beldar, Well, lokos liek "shit" is define by Merriam-Webster, so I'll consider it within the english language. And as used as a description-modifier, it can't be considered impolite. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/shit | 19:51 |
| ikonia | Chewy64: tone down the language please. | 19:51 |
| ikonia | Chewy64: there is no need for it, and it's not welcome | 19:52 |
| quantanamera | jhutchins, I see..thank you for your information! | 19:52 |
| Chewy64 | Jordan_U, Hmmm, interesting. Bacula 1 2 looks like it'll service my needs. I'd prefer "real-time" or as close to for the mirroring. | 19:52 |
| phasip | I am trying to install steam from the software center but when I do I get "Depends: libc6 (>= 2.15) but 2.17-93ubuntu4 is to be installed" | 19:53 |
| ikonia | phasip: so the version you are using in ubuntu is too new | 19:54 |
| Anton-Vidovich | thanx bro | 19:54 |
| rww | odd, 2.15 is >= 2.17-93ubuntu4 | 19:55 |
| phasip | ikonia: Oh, I thought it needed a version more or equal to 2.15 =/ | 19:55 |
| ikonia | phasip: that's how it should be, but it's not working that way | 19:55 |
| quantanamera | but earlier when I connected the hardware,it at least used to be recognized by ubuntu, and I could skip the need to use itunes and directly add or remove songs from nautilus. this time the mp3 player isnt recognized. can I enable it somehow? | 19:55 |
| ikonia | quantanamera: itunes does not work | 19:55 |
| ikonia | quantanamera: ipods - do not work (stable) | 19:56 |
| phasip | Allright, thanks ikonia | 19:56 |
| quantanamera | ikonia, it used to, before, meaning modifying songlist on nautilus | 19:57 |
| quantanamera | now it doesnt even get detected as hardware | 19:57 |
| ikonia | quantanamera: they are not stable enough to use/depend on | 19:58 |

| someHuman | Hello! | 20:02 |
| someHuman | So I just installed 13.10 | 20:02 |
| someHuman | I am stuck at a prompt wherein it tells me to remove disc and press enter. | 20:03 |
| daftykins | someHuman: hit reset | 20:03 |
| bekks | someHuman: So remove the disc and press enter. | 20:03 |
| Chewy64 | Removed the disk/USB key and restart. Just a generic message. | 20:03 |
| Randomguy9900 | Hey guys. I finally got some sound working on my laptop, just loaded with lubuntu. To do so I just installed pulseaudio. Although now, my sound only works on headphones, and even then it's extremely quiet. (I have checked and maxed out levels in alsamixer) Thanks | 20:03 |
| someHuman | bekks: That's what I did. | 20:03 |
| someHuman | daftykins: I've done that many times already and haven't even able to boot into Ubuntu itself installing 13.10 via disc. | 20:04 |
| daftykins | someHuman: you removed the disc before resetting, yes? | 20:04 |
| someHuman | For sure I'll be unable to boot into it again. | 20:04 |
| someHuman | daftykins: Yes. | 20:04 |
| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, just had exactly the same problem. did you check the output device at pulseaudio? | 20:04 |
| daftykins | someHuman: so what does it do? | 20:04 |
| daftykins | black screen? | 20:04 |
| someHuman | I just left it stuck with the prompt. | 20:04 |
| someHuman | daftykins: What should be my PC be doing anyway? | 20:04 |
| bekks | someHuman: which is impossible when restting your computer. | 20:04 |
| someHuman | I've already removed CD and pressed enter already. | 20:04 |
| bekks | someHuman: Restart it. | 20:04 |
| Randomguy9900 | quantanamera: Where would I do that? (Probably noob question but I'm just picking this up) | 20:05 |
| someHuman | Ok? | 20:05 |
| quantanamera | passing on the solution I got from BradPJ.. | 20:05 |
| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, among pulse audio tabs you have "output device" tab | 20:05 |
| Randomguy9900 | quantanamera: .... haha yeah I where do i find these pulse audio tabs? | 20:06 |
| someHuman | Dammit I wiped my Windows 8.1 Pro wtf?! | 20:06 |
| someHuman | I knew it. | 20:06 |
| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, maybe first check (if there is any) the sound buttom on your computer | 20:06 |
| quantanamera | check if it is turned off | 20:06 |
| someHuman | Am again running in low-graphics mode. | 20:06 |
| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, button* | 20:07 |
| someHuman | Telling me to configure screen, graphics card and device settings by myself. | 20:07 |
| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, if there is nothing turned off there, start pulse audio, and you'll see titles as that go on as "playback, recording, output devices.." | 20:08 |
| Randomguy9900 | quantanamera: Would I start it by typing "pulseaudio" into terminal? Because when I do so, it says Daemon is already running | 20:08 |
| quantanamera | go to output devices, and check what is selected as "port". | 20:08 |
| lapor | hey | 20:09 |
| lapor | i have a huge problem and would kindly ask for some help | 20:09 |
| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, I haven't tried to start it via terminal, but if you get that message probably it is about to open or has already opened at the background | 20:09 |
| lapor | Is there a way to get prevoious files from ubuntu one? | 20:09 |
| Randomguy9900 | quantanamera: Treat me like I'm a five year old on how to start it hah. If you were to start pulseaudio to do what you're telling me, how would you do that? | 20:10 |
| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, otherwise you can type pulseaudio as search word | 20:10 |
| dreaser | hi | 20:10 |

| quantanamera | Randomguy9900, typing pulseaudio gives the same error on my terminal. | 20:13 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900 : pavucontrol is like sound settings, just with more options, which is why it is not installed by default. If there is any problem with pulseaudio regarding sound levels you should be able to fix it here | 20:14 |

| JoeyJoeJo | How can I change the order that apps start? I want gpsd to start before ntp | 20:22 |
| lapor | but I have the same files on my laptop and on my ubuntu one | 20:22 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: I've been messing with that volume, and alsamixer. The non-alsa one can let me bump the volume much higher, but it doesn't make it louder, just more sound clipping at like a pin drop volume | 20:22 |
| xangua | lapor: ubuntu one doesn't backup previous versions of your files and you should think to migratin since sync files will shut off | 20:22 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: I'm starting to run out of ideas. What does it say under Configuration ? What type of device is it set too? | 20:23 |
| lapor | ok, so there is no way to get those files back? | 20:23 |
| lapor | i think my world just collapsed... | 20:23 |
| bekks | lapor: so you have no backup copies of your data? | 20:24 |
| alex72gr | hello everybody! does anybody know if the optical output (s/pdif) of the on board sound card is supported on linux? the on board sound card is a RealTek one... | 20:24 |
| lapor | no | 20:24 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: I've tried all of them. I only get response on Audio Stereo Duplex and Audio Stero Output | 20:24 |
| bekks | lapor: Then your files were not worth to be kept. | 20:24 |
| DarkStar1 | which is more stable 13.04/13.10 | 20:25 |
| DarkStar1 | ? | 20:25 |
| Pici | DarkStar1: 13.04 is no longer supported, so I wouldn't go with that one. | 20:25 |
| DarkStar1 | ok | 20:25 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: Audio Stereo Duplex is what mine is set too. Are you sure you can't change the port? It should say speakers when headphones are unplugged. | 20:26 |
| Slart | JoeyJoeJo: there's probably a clever way of using upstart/systemd or whatever to do this.. but you could always do a little loop checking for the gpsd process before launching ntp | 20:26 |
| novice | Hello - what is the preferred and easiest way to issue a few simple ifconfig commands upon system startup? | 20:27 |
| Slart | JoeyJoeJo: or create a script you run at boot/login where you first start one.. then the other | 20:27 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: I get best results by slamming up the ALSA Playback volume and down on the Output device. Though it's still completely unusable and no speaker sound. I'm positive it does not change. No change in text anywhere when I plug or unplug | 20:28 |
| Randomguy9900 | Never the word speakers, just headphones | 20:28 |

| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: You can change the port yourself though if pulseaudio recognises it. | 20:28 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: You can try resetting PulseAudio if it was working earlier. In the terminal type 'pulseaudio --kill' (no quotations) and then type 'pulseaudio' (again no quotations)(this may fail if pulseaudio has already started up again on its own - it sometimes does that). | 20:29 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: Entering the two commands separately of course. | 20:29 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: Okay. Well now there's no devices available and no sound is coming out -_- Damn this stuff | 20:30 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: Correciton, there are the same headphones/amplifier thing available. But levels are missing that show the current sound that should be outputting, and ALSA and all that stuf is gone from the main tab | 20:31 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: After resetting pulseaudio? Wow, sorry. That must be the problem though. At the moment Pulseaudio doesn't recognise your Sound device. | 20:31 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: No reason to be sorry haha. Helps figure something out.... hopefully | 20:32 |
| alexxa20 | j #floss-magazin | 20:33 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: In the terminal does typing 'pactl list cards' list your sound card? | 20:34 |

| DarkStar1 | whenever I attempt a release upgrade from 13.04 I get the following error http://fpaste.org/94142/13975076/ | 20:35 |

| DarkStar1 | anyone know what’s causing this? | 20:35 |

| tfh | hi, I got a lenovo ideapad, with ubuntu 13.10 on it, how can I use the select text (to copy) and then paste ? on my old laptop I used to select, and click both buttons and it used to paste, any ideas? | 20:35 |
| Slart | Randomguy9900: checked all the settings you get by running alsamixer in a terminal? | 20:35 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7251726/ | 20:35 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: Okay how are your speakers attached to your PC? | 20:36 |
| Randomguy9900 | Slart: I've been messing with audio levels in both alsa and pavu and changing every device I can in pavu. It just had ALSA on there, last occurence of pulseaudio, and I got very weak, clippy signal. Now nothing in the first tab | 20:36 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: They're built in to the laptop | 20:37 |
| DarkStar1 | can anyone help? | 20:37 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: I can't see any port for speaker output in that output. I can only see SPDIF, Headphone with Amp, Headphones without Amp. It doesn't seem to recognise your internal speakers. | 20:38 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: Alright, good to know. Just haven't the first clue as to how to get it to recognize that. If possible | 20:38 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: On my external sound card, sometimes it doesn't get recognised as a 5.1 card but only a stereo card. The only thing that fixes that is a reboot unfortunately. If you haven't tried that and are doing nothing important I guess a reboot could be a good thing to try. | 20:39 |
| Randomguy9900 | BradPJ: See ya in a few :) | 20:40 |
| tfh | can someone mention my name please, I want to check if the chat client is notifying me when someone does | 20:40 |

| DarkStar1 | Can anyone help with my release upgrade problem | 20:46 |
| Randomguy9900_ | BradPJ: Though still in the same place as we left off before I killed pulse | 20:46 |

| foobar33 | I have the latest version of ubuntu installed, I have problems with ALT + TAB, it groups my programs of the same type together, which makes it really hard for me to select the window I want. | 20:47 |

| Randomguy9900_ | BradPJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7251807/ | 20:48 |
| scrubfest | bgardner, I just did sudo apt-get install eclipse-platform | 20:48 |
| scrubfest | And when I went to java to install it, it had already been installed probably by the previous install | 20:49 |
| jareddlc | hey guys, i have this upstart config, but im new to linux, where do i put it and how do i install? | 20:49 |
| jareddlc | https://github.com/papertrail/remote_syslog/blob/master/examples/remote_syslog.upstart.conf | 20:49 |
| jareddlc | linux upstart* | 20:49 |
| Randomguy9900_ | BradPJ: The Analog Mono Outputs don't seem to be attached to anything. No speaker sound, no headphone sound. Doesn't matter plugged in or not | 20:50 |
| bgardner | scrubfest: What does 'update-java-alternatives -l' give you? | 20:50 |
| trism | jareddlc: it would go in /etc/init/ although I think you may have to drop the .upstart part or upstart may not recognize it properly | 20:51 |
| scrubfest | java-1.6.0-openjdk-amd64 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-amd64 | 20:51 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: Well that's even more weird. Sorry I don't have any other ideas, your speakers should be listed under ports. | 20:51 |
| jareddlc | thx trism ill do just that | 20:51 |
| Randomguy9900_ | BradPJ: Alright :/ If you've got nothing else, I'll just save it for a later day. I got this lubuntu together just to write some code. So it's not a huge issue, but it's nice to have sound on a laptop | 20:52 |
| Guest4562 | hello | 20:52 |
| trism | jareddlc: oh just tested, having a . in the name is fine as long as you want the job to be called "remote_syslog.upstart" instead of "remote_syslog" | 20:53 |
| jareddlc | i'll remove it, thx | 20:53 |
| Guest4562 | helo ubuntu any one can talk to me plz | 20:53 |
| jareddlc | it thats how it was named in the example | 20:53 |

| DarkStar1 | Ok new q. generate the locale I want? locale-gen doesn’t seem to work in the sense that after generating the locale, the output of locale is still the same as before | 20:53 |
| jareddlc | next restart, it should load it and work properly? | 20:53 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: It appears that PulseAudio doesn't even recognise you have speakers. If you have an application that you can change the output from Pulseaudio to ALSA then you may be able to get sound going straight through ALSA instead of Pulseaudio -> Alsa. | 20:54 |
| Guest4562 | hello Mr Jaredd how is u | 20:54 |
| Randomguy9900_ | BradPJ: One last thing. Would you have any idea why in my system info it claims I have battery? I'd like to check the level and all, but cant | 20:54 |

| MaterialDefender | SHITLOADS | 20:55 |
| DarkStar1 | I looked under the /var/lib/locales/supported.d/ and the new locales aren’t there | 20:55 |
| trism | jareddlc: you could try starting it with: sudo start remote_syslog; to see what happens | 20:55 |
| BradPJ | Randomguy9900: Not got any clue where to even start looking at that one sorry. | 20:55 |
| Randomguy9900_ | BradPJ: I did think about that too. Though I wouldn't know how to reroute it or whatever. We'll see | 20:55 |

| chris11 | That looks helpful. I was actually refering to something else. $ has been replaced with > after running a find command. The find command has also not executed. I think I got all of the ; | 21:03 |
| chris11 | So is there any way to cancel the find command? | 21:03 |
| bekks | chris11: press ctrl c | 21:03 |
| Jordan_U | chris11: That means that the shell is expecting more input. | 21:03 |
| EpicCyndaquil | Ctrl+C should end just about any process, chris | 21:03 |
| chris11 | Thanks, that worked. | 21:03 |

| usr13 | someHuman: Get connected to internet. Do updates. Reboot. See what you have after that. | 21:24 |
| Baako | if i wanted to run this ssh in ubntu i have set up a conf file in .ssh do i type this "ssl host" e.g. if the host was like this "Host myhosts" | 21:24 |
| someHuman | usr13: How do I connect? | 21:24 |
| bekks | Baako: no. | 21:25 |
| usr13 | someHuman: Connect to internet. Do: sudo apt-get && sudo apt-get upgrade | 21:25 |
| someHuman | I am in ttyl. | 21:25 |
| someHuman | I can only type stuff for stuff to happen. | 21:25 |
| someone12345 | are you on a laptop? | 21:25 |
| someHuman | No GUIs. | 21:25 |
| someHuman | someone12345: Yes | 21:25 |
| bekks | someHuman: then start to type. | 21:25 |
| usr13 | someHuman: Ok, so you are in console mode. I got that. | 21:25 |
| Baako | bekks its something then the hostname e.g. ssl tunnel | 21:25 |
| bekks | Baako: Thats sounds wrong pretty much. | 21:25 |
| someHuman | bekks: I don't know what to type. | 21:25 |
| usr13 | someHuman: Scroll up... read. If you have problems ask question(s). | 21:26 |
| bekks | someHuman: You've been told multiple times. | 21:26 |
| Jordan_U | someHuman: What did you mean when you talked about a "config. box"? | 21:26 |
| Baako | bekks i did something like that but i forgot | 21:26 |
| usr13 | someHuman: Are you logged in? | 21:26 |
| usr13 | someHuman: If not. Login. Okay? | 21:26 |
| bekks | Baako: you can create a ssh_config file, but you dont type things like "ssl tunnel" in there. | 21:26 |
| Johnny_Linux | D`oh! | 21:26 |
| usr13 | someHuman: supply user name, and then password. | 21:26 |
| someHuman | Jordan_U: You know, after you've been told that your system is running in low-graphics mode. You get this options which to configure. | 21:27 |
| someHuman | The ones in radio buttons. | 21:27 |
| Baako | bekks i might in tunnel | 21:27 |
| someHuman | usr13: I am logged in already. | 21:27 |
| bekks | Baako: What does that sentence mean? | 21:27 |
| usr13 | someHuman: So what options did you get to configure? | 21:27 |
| Jordan_U | someHuman: OK. What were those options? ctrl+alt+F7 will probably return you to that dialog. | 21:27 |
| Baako | bekks will show you a pastebin of my config | 21:27 |
| someHuman | Wait | 21:28 |
| someHuman | I'll tell you alphabetically. | 21:28 |
| usr13 | someHuman: iwconfig | 21:28 |
| scrubfest | I cant move my cursor | 21:28 |
| someHuman | Run in low-graphics mode for just 1 session | 21:28 |
| someHuman | Reconfigure graphics | 21:28 |
| scrubfest | Is there some linux hotkey that disables cursor movement? | 21:28 |
| someHuman | Troubleshoot the error | 21:28 |
| someHuman | Exit to console login | 21:28 |
| scrubfest | Everything works as it should I just cant move my cursor all of a sudden | 21:28 |
| someHuman | That's it. | 21:28 |
| Jordan_U | someHuman: Select the first option, to run in low-graphics mode for just 1 session. | 21:28 |
| someone12345 | scrubfest: modprobe -r psmouse & modprobe psmouse | 21:29 |
| Baako | bekks http://pastebin.com/VcpVY7k5 | 21:29 |
| someHuman | It doesn't show my cursor. | 21:29 |
| someHuman | I don't think I can even choose? | 21:29 |
| usr13 | someHuman: In console mode? | 21:29 |
| bekks | Baako: Thats a stock ssh_config file. | 21:29 |
| scrubfest | some12345 are those terminal commands? | 21:29 |
| someHuman | usr13: No, I am in the dialogue box now. | 21:29 |
| Jordan_U | someHuman: You likely need to use arrow keys to move between options, and enter to continue with your selection. | 21:29 |
| someHuman | Fomr ttyl I pressed ctrl+alt+f7 | 21:29 |
| usr13 | someHuman: So, what are your options? | 21:29 |
| Baako | bekks how i want to call "tunnel" and the host will start without me having to do all that | 21:30 |
| someHuman | Neither works. | 21:30 |
| someone12345 | scrubfest: yes, you need sudo assess | 21:30 |
| usr13 | someHuman: Tab key? | 21:30 |
| someHuman | In cases like this I just restart | 21:30 |
| someHuman | usr13: Nope | 21:30 |
| Jordan_U | someHuman: Neither what works? | 21:30 |
| nuclearbob | o/ | 21:30 |
| scrubfest | I didnt write anything in terminal to disable it | 21:30 |
| bekks | Baako: "man ssh_config" | 21:30 |
| scrubfest | so that cant be it | 21:30 |
| === julien is now known as Guest58389 | ||
| someHuman | Jordan_U: Trying to choose from the options. | 21:30 |
| someone12345 | scrubfest: Are you in gui? | 21:30 |
| someHuman | usr13: I just restarted. | 21:31 |
| someone12345 | scrubfest: Are you in login? | 21:31 |
| scrubfest | That command outputted [1] 10914 | 21:31 |
| usr13 | someHuman: So go to console mode, get connected to internet, do updates, and see what you have after that. (May be easiest to connect via cat5 cable.) | 21:31 |
| Jordan_U | someHuman: So pressing tab multiple times, using the arrow keys multiple times, and pressing "Enter" all don't have any effect on what is displayed on the screen. Correct? | 21:31 |
| someone12345 | scrubfest: sudo modprobe -r psmouse & sudo modprobe psmouse | 21:31 |
| someHuman | usr13: Yeah I'll just get the cable lol. | 21:31 |
| usr13 | someHuman: Good. | 21:32 |
| someHuman | Jordan_U: Yeah, but I just restarted my PC. | 21:32 |
| usr13 | someHuman: Good. | 21:32 |
| someone12345 | scrubfest: do you know what sudo is | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | No I am logged in. I was just browsing chromium when suddenly I couldn't move my mouse | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | :P | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | I can restart that will probably fix it | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | Right now I am just using hotkeys to open programs and navigating with tab | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | Its kind of fun | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | Apparently its super user access? | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | That's how I've understood it | 21:32 |
| scrubfest | Does sudo modprobe -r psmouse check for hardware block on cursor? | 21:34 |
| someone12345 | scrubfest: If can get to the termal type sudo modprobe -r psmouse & sudo modprobe psmouse. It will reload the mouse drivers. | 21:34 |
| bekks | scrubfest: no. | 21:34 |
| scrubfest | I wrote both | 21:34 |
| scrubfest | nothing happened | 21:34 |
| scrubfest | I think I'll just reboot :) | 21:34 |
| scrubfest | Oh nvm | 21:35 |
| scrubfest | now it works | 21:35 |
| scrubfest | coolio | 21:35 |
| someone12345 | That will work | 21:35 |
| jhutchins | scrubfest: You very rarely have to actually reboot Linux. | 21:35 |
| chulis | How can I change the color of my nick in xchat-gnome? | 21:36 |
| jhutchins | scrubfest: You might, if that hadn't worked, just restart X. | 21:36 |

| scrubfest | Back to the skype thing though | 21:36 |
| scrubfest | To install skype I just did | 21:36 |
| scrubfest | sudo apt-get install skype | 21:36 |
| scrubfest | Should I have done it some other way? | 21:37 |
| Baako | bekks what? | 21:37 |
| Beldar | chulis, https://toxin.jottit.com/xchat_text_events | 21:37 |
| bekks | Baako: type "man ssh_config" to see a in-depth explanation of how to configure your ssh_config file | 21:37 |
| Baako | bekks no manual entry | 21:38 |
| bekks | Baako: So what are you typing then? | 21:38 |
| Baako | bekks man ssh-config | 21:39 |
| Baako | bekks dont matter will find out | 21:39 |
| bekks | Baako: Thats not what I told you to type. | 21:39 |
| bekks | Baako: I told you to type: "man ssh_config". Not the underscore, which is not a minus. | 21:39 |
| bekks | *Note | 21:39 |
| chulis | Beldar: its for all versions? | 21:41 |
| hroi | hi! | 21:42 |
| Beldar | chulis, Who knows, probably not is my guess, in this area, a gui. | 21:42 |
| hroi | Im wanting try out xfce on my ubuntu 13.10 | 21:43 |
| ice9 | is there a library for ubuntu for geoip service? | 21:44 |
| Beldar | chulis, I meant without the "not" the same per release. | 21:44 |
| Beldar | hroi, What is stopping you? | 21:44 |
| OerHeks | !find geoip | 21:45 |

| ubottu | hroi, please see my private message | 21:47 |
| hroi | Beldar, thanks! | 21:48 |
| Glycan | Hello, I'm using lubuntu with more or less defaults, keyboard layout switiching doesn't really work properly | 21:48 |
| bekks | Baako: I am not. The command for the man page of ssh_config is "man ssh_config". | 21:48 |
| Glycan | I have to go manually open lxkeymap every time I want to switch | 21:48 |
| hroi | Beldar, only I've had a slight inkling that xfce conflicts with ubuntu | 21:48 |
| hroi | Beldar, is that even remotely possible? | 21:48 |
| hroi | Beldar, corrupting some library dependencies? | 21:48 |
| Glycan | There's a "Keyboard Layout Switcher" widget, but it only shows me having one keyboard layout at any given moment | 21:49 |
| hroi | what would be the most stable "lightweight", non-opengl desktop for ubuntu? | 21:50 |
| usr13 | hroi: They are all stable, take your pick. | 21:51 |
| Baako | bekks this is what i was looking for "ssh -f -N tunnel" | 21:51 |
| Glycan | lubuntu is lightweight | 21:51 |
| Glycan | can anyone help me out? | 21:52 |
| hroi | usr13, I get the feeling they are not "as" stable as the ubuntu unity setup - at least on 13.10 | 21:52 |
| hroi | usr13, I guess it is conceivable that 13.10 distro doesn't wait for anyone | 21:52 |
| usr13 | hroi: I get the feeling they are ;) | 21:52 |
| Jordan_U | hroi: LXDE and XFCE both get a lot of testing as their are official Ubuntu flavors for them, Lubuntu and Xubuntu respectively. | 21:53 |
| ice9 | ubuntu GeoIP can be used as service? | 21:53 |
| usr13 | hroi: I use xfce | 21:53 |
| hroi | Jordan_U, usr13 , ok good to know! | 21:53 |
| hroi | so long as i dont try anything funny, like installing chinese support --- right :) | 21:53 |
| usr13 | hroi: (I consider xfce to be most user-friendly, easily configurable and feature-rich.) | 21:54 |
| hroi | usr13, and xfce is 100% framebuffer right? | 21:54 |
| Glycan | guys? | 21:54 |
| usr13 | hroi: But the choice is yours, just try one then another until you find one *you* like. | 21:55 |
| Beldar | hroi, xfce=less gui more configs | 21:55 |
| bekks | Glycan: We are still waiting for your support question :) | 21:55 |
| usr13 | hroi: xfce is best (in my opinion). | 21:55 |
| hroi | oh, I see that 13.10 xubuntu xfce is Xfce4 | 21:55 |
| usr13 | hroi: You are correct. | 21:56 |
| Glycan | bekks: I would like to be able to switch keyboard layouts with a shortcut. | 21:56 |
| hroi | usr13, Beldar : my main concern is opengl -- I dont want any fancy graphics card stuff :) | 21:56 |
| Glycan | I can't; it shows me having as one keyboard layout at a time, I have to go open lxkeymap every time I want to type accents | 21:56 |
| hroi | usr13, Beldar : reason being I run a lot of stuff on my gpu | 21:56 |
| bekks | Glycan: Then define a hotkey for it. http://askubuntu.com/questions/94902/how-can-i-switch-between-keyboard-layouts-by-pressing-a-keyboard-shortcut-like-o | 21:57 |
| hroi | usr13, Beldar : gpu interupts do horrible things to my desktop performance | 21:57 |
| Beldar | hroi, There are even lighter de, but starting with xfce is as good as any. ;) | 21:57 |
| Glycan | bekks: I cannot add another language | 21:57 |
| usr13 | hroi: Maybe you need more system resources for what you do? | 21:57 |
| bekks | Glycan: why not? | 21:57 |
| hroi | usr13, basically in the past I have found that light weight desktops dont get bothered so much by my gpu load | 21:58 |
| Glycan | It doesn't work. Hang on, I'll go try to do it again and tell you what exactly happens. | 21:58 |
| hroi | usr13, Beldar : I guess because they dont use opengl , or didnt used to | 21:59 |
| hroi | usr13, Beldar : unity is pura opengl I think | 21:59 |
| Glycan | Well, for starts, I don't have a system settings menu. | 21:59 |
| Glycan | starters* | 21:59 |
| bekks | Glycan: it isnt a menu, it is a starter button on the left. | 21:59 |
| Glycan | (I am using Lubuntu) | 22:00 |
| usr13 | Glycan: Maybe you would like xfce better. | 22:00 |
| Glycan | not really, I've used xfce before | 22:00 |
| bekks | Glycan: even xfce has system settings :) | 22:00 |
| usr13 | Glycan: Ok | 22:00 |
| Glycan | and I have other things I want to do this next couple of days than figuring out why my new OS doesn't work | 22:01 |
| Glycan | these* | 22:01 |
| Glycan | I have system tools and preferences | 22:01 |
| bekks | Glycan: Define "doesnt work" please. | 22:01 |
| Glycan | bekks: what, you've had new installs work exactly the way you want them to, immediatly? | 22:01 |
| bekks | Glycan: Yes. | 22:01 |
| bekks | Glycan: Thats what I expect from a new install, honestly. | 22:02 |
| ice9 | what package does config.h belongs to? | 22:02 |
| Glycan | well, I mean, not work in general | 22:02 |
| bekks | Glycan: "doesnt work, in general" is to generic to actually fix it. | 22:02 |
| bekks | ice9: you can look it up on packages.ubuntu.com | 22:02 |
| Glycan | I suppose I should say, "figuring out where and how to configure everything so it works the way I want it too, and then figure out fix <problem XYZ> that will inevitably arise" | 22:03 |
| Glycan | but that doesn't anything to do with the problem at hadn | 22:03 |
| Glycan | hand* | 22:03 |
| Glycan | My root menu has system tools and preferecnes | 22:03 |
| Glycan | preferences* | 22:03 |
| idiot_ | Glycan, does this help you http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Change_keyboard_layouts | 22:05 |
| trism | ice9: what are you building? usually config.h is generated from the configure script in the source | 22:06 |
| Glycan | [huh, something with my wifi...] | 22:07 |
| Glycan | oh, cool, this works! "echo '@setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle "us,il"' | sudo tee -a /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart" | 22:07 |
| ice9 | trism: an app that uses geo and geoclue and dbus | 22:07 |
| idiot_ | Glycan, btw: type lxkeymap to open the Keyboard-layout-options, if you can't find it in the menu | 22:07 |
| Glycan | I know, but I have to do that every time | 22:08 |
| jhutchins | Glycan: One trick is to learn to use the default configuration rather than spending a lot of time customizing it. | 22:08 |
| Glycan | (had, this new thing works) | 22:08 |
| jhutchins | Glycan: If your customizations are limited and relatively simple, it's easier to deal with a new install. | 22:09 |
| Glycan | jhutchins: that basically defeats the point of using linux | 22:09 |
| Glycan | (imho) | 22:09 |
| idiot_ | Glycan, Why? If you have to configure that much, you have to use another distro. That's the reason for distributions btw. | 22:10 |
| Glycan | huh | 22:11 |
| Glycan | I've never been able to find a distro that satisfies me properly | 22:11 |
| bekks | Glycan: So find the distro where you waste the least time with configuring it. | 22:12 |
| Glycan | huh | 22:13 |
| hayer | Anyone know of a commandline tool to convert a .iso of a movie to a mkv? | 22:16 |
| bekks | there is none. | 22:17 |
| hayer | bekks: well, I doubt that. | 22:17 |
| bekks | an .iso is a data container. you have to extract the actual movie data out of it, and then convert your movie. | 22:17 |
| hayer | same shit, different wrapping ;) | 22:18 |
| hroi | ok definately nothing wrong with doing apt-get install lubuntu-desktop xfce-desktop in one go? | 22:18 |
| hayer | hroi: no. gn | 22:18 |
| quantanamera | hello back :) do you recommend to switch from 12.04. to 14.04. ? | 22:19 |
| quantanamera | presuming some have been using 14.04. already | 22:19 |
| usr13 | *you*? | 22:19 |
| usr13 | quantanamera: I don't.... | 22:20 |
| usr13 | quantanamera: Not yet anyway.... | 22:20 |
| jhutchins | quantanamera: How important is the system? Just for fun or production? | 22:20 |
| usr13 | quantanamera: but that is my opinion. | 22:20 |
| quantanamera | jhutchins, yes, I do some productive work | 22:21 |
| jhutchins | Glycan: No, it doesn't defeat my reason for using linux. I use it because it works best for what I need. | 22:21 |
| jhutchins | Glycan: I've also literally built hundreds of linux systems. | 22:21 |
| quantanamera | usr13, why do you think so? | 22:21 |
| jhutchins | quantanamera: Then I would stick with 12.04 for a while. 14.04 should be done later this month but it's not quite done yet. | 22:22 |
| jhutchins | quantanamera: In particular there are problems with the installer (possibly limited to efi installs but still). | 22:22 |
| quantanamera | jhutchins, so you mean it just isnt ready yet, but once it's ready, better to switch? | 22:22 |

| quantanamera | usr13, that's true, but just wondering if upgrading would bring advantage in any way. | 22:25 |
| vaskozl | can anyone help me? | 22:25 |
| quantanamera | usr13, you mean, in other words, never interfere with a working system. | 22:26 |

| minimec | afflicto: Take this as a start. You have to create a 'null-sink' and 'loopback' the devices you want to merge to that 'null-sink'... http://askubuntu.com/questions/257992/how-can-i-use-pulseaudio-virtual-audio-streams-to-play-music-over-skype | 23:10 |
| quantanamera | good night/day ! | 23:10 |
| scuzzy123123 | hi there | 23:11 |
| scuzzy123123 | i'm having a really annoying issue | 23:11 |
| scuzzy123123 | when i open my sound settings, this happens: http://imgur.com/4C2YeFu | 23:11 |
| === seren is now known as sarin | ||
| bekks | scuzzy123123: close your chromium tabs then :) | 23:12 |
| scuzzy123123 | the window extends waaaay below my screen, i think because it populates the list under "applications" | 23:12 |
| scuzzy123123 | i'm not trying to use the applications tab though | 23:12 |
| scuzzy123123 | i just want to change the volume on a specific device | 23:12 |
| bekks | scuzzy123123: So close your chromium tabs. | 23:13 |
| scuzzy123123 | besides, why would it EVER be a good idea to extend the window below the screen | 23:13 |
| scuzzy123123 | i'm not looking for advice on my workflow, just a way to force change the window size | 23:13 |
| Slart | scuzzy123123: I can't change the window size for that window on my system.. even though it fits on screen.. perhaps it's configured to be not-resizable? | 23:17 |
| scuzzy123123 | Slart: yeah, i found this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/908650 | 23:17 |
| bekks | scuzzy123123: the way to change the window size: close the chromium tabs, so the window will not extend the screen border. | 23:17 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 936257 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #908650 the system settings grid shouldn't use a fixed geometry" [Medium,Triaged] | 23:17 |
| Slart | scuzzy123123: I can't change the window size of any of the settings windows =/ | 23:17 |
| scuzzy123123 | which makes me think they some how decided to make the window size fixed and not resizeable | 23:18 |
| scuzzy123123 | bekks: you're not really being helpful | 23:18 |
| === mjs2 is now known as mjs0 | ||
| scuzzy123123 | i can have 20 tabs open if i want | 23:19 |
| bekks | scuzzy123123: the window size is determined by the number of items in the list. If you want to ignore that fact, ignore it. | 23:19 |
| Slart | scuzzy123123: sounds like extremely bad programming/design.. if you check the pulseaudio volume control it has a scroll bar to the right | 23:19 |
| Slart | scuzzy123123: not really sure how to help you further besides voting on that bug | 23:20 |
| Slart | scuzzy123123: and that bug is from 2012.. don't think they're going to change it now.. but who knows | 23:21 |
| scuzzy123123 | Slart: I think the bug report is for 11.10, which tells you how long this has been there | 23:21 |
| afflicto | minimec: thanks, I actually found a youtube video tho and got it sorted :D | 23:21 |
| scuzzy123123 | Slart: yeah, lol | 23:21 |
| scuzzy123123 | Slart: I appreciate you looking into it though, good to know I'm not the only one who finds this "design decision" to be crazy and nonsensical | 23:22 |
| Slart | scuzzy123123: I'm running gnome shell at the moment.. bad design choices don't really upset me any more.. there are so many of them | 23:23 |
| scrubfest | Is there a CTRL+ALT+DELETE equivalent in ubuntu? | 23:24 |
| Slart | scuzzy123123: but we're drifting offtopic.. I hope they fix this somehow.. I'm going to vote for the bug.. | 23:24 |
| Slart | scrubfest: what are you looking to do? | 23:24 |
| scrubfest | Terminate process | 23:24 |
| scrubfest | allocate CPU | 23:24 |
| scrubfest | memory | 23:24 |
| scrubfest | stuff like that | 23:25 |
| minimec | scrubfest: Well... some kind of... http://blog.kember.net/articles/reisub-the-gentle-linux-restart/ | 23:25 |
| Slart | scrubfest: there is a REISUB.. and ctrl+backspace (if enabled) | 23:25 |
| usr13 | Slart: If you are running a DE that you think is not designed properly, why don't you switch to another? | 23:25 |
| scrubfest | I am having trouble with windows going dark | 23:25 |
| Slart | scrubfest: well.. you can always drop to a tty.. ctrl+alt+f1 should do that.. (note!! alt+F7 to get back) | 23:25 |
| scrubfest | Trying to turn off the Lock after 10min | 23:25 |
| scrubfest | And I go into the windows that manages it | 23:25 |
| scrubfest | Turn the option off | 23:25 |
| scrubfest | and X it | 23:25 |
| scrubfest | and it just stops working | 23:26 |
| scrubfest | and I have to force quit it | 23:26 |
| scrubfest | and the changes are discarded | 23:26 |
| scrubfest | happens every time | 23:26 |
| Slart | usr13: I've tried several.. gnome seems to be the lesser evil at the moment.. although they are working their way down =) | 23:26 |
| srx20022 | hello | 23:27 |
| scrubfest | What is tty? | 23:27 |
| scrubfest | Prompted me with ubuntu login, not sure what to do there | 23:27 |
| Slart | scrubfest: a terminal | 23:27 |
| srx20022 | have a quick question, about xbmc and saucy | 23:27 |
| Slart | scrubfest: type in your username and password | 23:28 |
| Slart | scrubfest: then you get a terminal prompt... and from there you can kill processes or whatever | 23:28 |
| srx20022 | trying to run XBMC on 13.10, however as soon as I run the hub wizard, xbmc crashes | 23:28 |
| __dan__ | any filesystem junkies here? wondering what the state of btrfs / zfs on linux is with 14.04 | 23:29 |
| __dan__ | im running freebsd 9.1 atm and looking at replacing with 14.04 | 23:29 |
| scrubfest | What do you call it when windows go dark and you cant use them? | 23:29 |
| bekks | scrubfest: "they are unresponsive" | 23:30 |
| scrubfest | kk | 23:30 |
| scrubfest | Is it a common problem that windows go unresponsive frequently? Like... every 2 minutes | 23:30 |
| scrubfest | :-/ | 23:30 |
| Slart | scrubfest: you could try running the application from a terminal.. see if you get any errors when it dies | 23:30 |
| ice9 | ubuntu geoip can be used as service? | 23:30 |
| Slart | scrubfest: nope.. not really a common thing.. at least not on the systems I run into | 23:31 |
| bekks | ice9: ? | 23:31 |
| scrubfest | This computer is really bad. It's probably that. | 23:31 |
| scrubfest | It has... single core 1.3 ghz CPU | 23:31 |
| ice9 | bekks: geoip.ubuntu.com/lookup | 23:32 |
| ice9 | bekks: can be used to send IP forexample and get info about it? | 23:32 |
| bekks | ice9: I strongly doubt that | 23:33 |
| bekks | ice9: you can use "geoiplookup" which is in the package "geoip-bin" | 23:34 |
| whoever | hi all | 23:42 |
| whoever | I am runing 12.10 and have a usb 3 port need help testing, can someone assist, i can't tell if it is fuctioning as it should | 23:42 |
| daftykins | plug something in, does it work? | 23:43 |
| whoever | if i plug a usb 3.0 cable in to it and the othere end into a wall adapter, shouldn't the battery of the notebook charge | 23:43 |
| whoever | ie : show the charging status on the battery icon | 23:44 |
| bekks | whoever: No. | 23:44 |
| whoever | bekks: why not | 23:44 |

| Ivis | Hi | 23:44 |
| bekks | whoever: From what you told us, I get that you have a 3 port USB hub, right? | 23:44 |
| Ivis | i have asus laptop with hybrid video card and when i run lspci | grep VGA i see only one intel card | 23:45 |
| whoever | be i contacted the manufacture and they said if it is usb 3 and you plug one cable to wall adapter and the other to the usb 3 port it should charge, without a special config | 23:45 |
| whoever | bekks: no usb 3.0 port | 23:45 |
| Maluku | when will hibrid AMD grafics work? | 23:46 |
| whoever | bekks: and that I am tring to charge my notebook via that port vsa the standart wall plug | 23:46 |
| bekks | whoever: so if you have a notebook, it should charge the battery whenever you plug in a cable into the power connector. | 23:46 |
| whoever | since the usb 3.0 standart supports charging | 23:46 |
| bekks | whoever: and you cant charge your laptop with your builtin usb3 port. | 23:46 |
| __dan__ | whoever: 12.10 is quite old, dont think you're getting security updates anymore :/ and usb 3 they changed the way power works | 23:46 |
| Runemoro | Hi, could anyone help me? | 23:46 |
| bekks | whoever: Unless you have a perpetuum mobile. | 23:47 |
| __dan__ | whoever: so maybe you could try a 14.04 live cd and see if that's any better? | 23:47 |
| littlegirl | whoever: You can charge other things with the USB port - like if you were to plug a camera into it, for instance, your laptop would charge the camera - but not the other way aroumd. | 23:47 |
| littlegirl | *around | 23:48 |
| minimec | !ask > Runemoro | 23:48 |
| ubottu | Runemoro, please see my private message | 23:48 |
| qin | whoever: What laptop is it? | 23:49 |
| whoever | bekks: how i understand it if if the notebook has a usb 3.0 connector, as long as one end is connected to a power source, and the other to the usb3.0 port, the laptop should charge | 23:49 |
| bekks | whoever: That is not true. | 23:50 |
| whoever | qin: hold on i'll find you a link | 23:50 |
| Runemoro | minimex, I recently set up a DNS server (bind9) on my ubuntu server, but it's not working properly | 23:50 |
| whoever | bekks: basterds lied then at acer | 23:50 |
| bekks | whoever: you cannot charge your laptop with your builtin usb3 port. | 23:50 |
| bekks | whoever: I stringly doubt they told you you could actually do that. | 23:51 |
| bekks | *strongly | 23:51 |
| littlegirl | whoever: That is true of a USB device. If I have a USB camera and my USB cord is plugged into a connector that is plugged into the wall, my camera will charge. However, your laptop is not a USB devide. It's a laptop with a USB port. It's a bit of a different creature. (: | 23:51 |
| minimec | Runemoro: Well I cannot really help you there. This is not my topic, sorry. ;) | 23:51 |
| daftykins | obviously some wires were crossed when you phoned in | 23:51 |
| qin | whoever: year ago it was introduced, but did not see any product yet. | 23:51 |

| Runemoro | Whenever I do dig @199.127.226.65 (my server's IP) rebornlegend.tk, I get the correct response, but doing "dig rebornlegend.tk" doesn't return anything. I've checked with whois that the DNS server name is correctly set up | 23:52 |
| Dbugger | Hi guys. I have a problem with "sendmail". It is a little long to explain, so I put it here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/447795/configuring-sendmail-in-12-04-server | 23:53 |
| ETtheGreen | How come Ubuntu escape the massive backdooring which Debian, *BSD, RH, openSUSE could not avoid getting? | 23:53 |
| littlegirl | whoever: Huh: "PORTS : 1 USB 3.0 (with Sleep and Charge)" - you might be right and the thing might actually be able to charge via its USB port. (: | 23:53 |
| bekks | Dbugger: I suggest uninstalling sendmail and using a more userfriendly MTA. All MTA packages will ship a "sendmail" binary. | 23:54 |
| whoever | so now i am confused why they lable PORTS : 1 USB 3.0 (with Sleep and Charge) | 23:54 |
| daftykins | whoever: it charges the DEVICE you plug in | 23:54 |
| Dbugger | bekks, do you have something in Mind? | 23:54 |
| bekks | Dbugger: postfix or exim4 | 23:54 |
| Dbugger | I need something that works well with php out of the box | 23:54 |
| bekks | Dbugger: every MTA does. | 23:55 |
| littlegirl | whoever: http://www.toshiba.com/us/sleep-and-charge | 23:55 |
| Dbugger | Could you maybe ref me a tutorial or something? | 23:55 |
| whoever | daftykins: but usb 2 and 1 do that why would they label 3.0 as chargeing then | 23:55 |
| littlegirl | whoever: It can charge your devices while it is sleeping, so you can put the laptop to sleep and it can still charge something. That's what it means. | 23:55 |
| ETtheGreen | Or is Ubuntu backdoored as well? | 23:55 |
| bekks | Dbugger: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix | 23:56 |
| bekks | ETtheGreen: Which backdooring? | 23:56 |
| minimec | Runemoro: There is a #ubuntu-server irc channel. Maybe the people there know more about your topic/problem. | 23:56 |
| ETtheGreen | bekks: NSA backdooring | 23:56 |
| whoever | littlegirl: damn it, .. so its sleep | 23:56 |
| Runemoro | thank you | 23:56 |
| littlegirl | whoever: Yeah, sorry about that. Do you have a regular power cord for it? | 23:56 |
| Dbugger | bekks, I will try. To remove sendmail, should I apt-get purge sendmail? | 23:56 |
| whoever | littlegirl: damn it, .. so its sleep-and-charge !sleep and charge | 23:56 |
| qin | whoever: It do not looks like Acer V5 have capabilities to be charged via usb. | 23:57 |
| bekks | ETtheGreen: Do you actually mean "the openssl bug found recently"? | 23:57 |
| bekks | Dbugger: yeah | 23:57 |
| whoever | littlegirl: i do i was just tring to make the weight i carry a few pounds less | 23:57 |
| littlegirl | whoever: Sorry about that! But at least now you know, and it's still cool that it can charge things while it sleeps. (: | 23:57 |
| daftykins | whoever: ok, mystery solved, we don't need to have a discussion all around it now | 23:57 |
| daftykins | this is ubuntu support not the shopping channel | 23:57 |
| ETtheGreen | bekks: seems there are others besides. | 23:58 |
| Dbugger | bekks, Im looking through the tutorial, and in the configuration section, it talks stuff about mail servers... I dont have such thing | 23:58 |
| bekks | ETtheGreen: this channel is about support, not fear, doubt and uncertainty. | 23:58 |
| srock | ubuntus backdoor has a password | 23:58 |
| bekks | Dbugger: you do. when you install sendmail, postfix whatever to send mails with your php, you have a mailserver. | 23:59 |
| bekks | srock: key auth based ;) | 23:59 |
| whoever | daftykins: ya, thx guy , and for what its worth that is a verry crappy labeling, since you can have your hardrive and whole pc go to sleep and still charge the whatever is plugged in | 23:59 |
| littlegirl | whoever: Agreed on the labeling. (: | 23:59 |
| Dbugger | bekks, but can I use whatever I want, for example, for step 3 of configuration? | 23:59 |
