Thanks for the help [00:04] kostkon: im confused will unity 8 be tablet interface be default for ubuntu in the future [00:04] tim____, 3 in 1, phone tablet and desktop [00:05] Jordan_U: Thanks for your command, now my question why update-manager doesn't work well than do-release-upgrade --mode=desktop? [00:05] tim____: it is phone and tablet focuse but will get the desktop focus too for 14.10. then all 3 desktops will have the same codebase [00:05] *all 3 formfactors [00:06] i meant to say the desktop interface we see now will it look like the tablet interface? [00:06] tim____: no [00:07] that is a relief [00:07] pdo_fn14: I don't know. Honestly I expect that you tried with update-manager again you would see the update. [00:07] tim____: it will stay a desktop interface made for mouse usage.

[00:09] I'm having problem with my keyboard, actually all the keys work perfectly, the only one that don't work is the c cedilha. Someone have a clue what could be? My keyboard is in Portoguese (Brazil) [00:09] pdo_fn14: reload and it should show the option for upgrade === _stefan is now known as _steay [00:09] it worked for me [00:09] White_Light: Ubuntu 13.10, now still progressing to upgrade [00:10] When will ubuntu 14.04.1 be out?

[00:11] umm... are there any channel operators present? [00:12] ohh sorry [00:12] KurtKraut: just nothing [00:12] What the actual buck [00:12] sorry for that bot amok run [00:12] vanderson, All other keys are properly working? [00:12] One bored op [00:12] KurtKraut, yes it is. [00:12] so... what just happened? [00:12] Big bot bug, from the looks of it [00:13] vanderson, Can you type é ã á à " ' properly?

How can you be sure it is not a keyboard malfunction? [00:14] If I stick with 12.04 till 16.04 comes out,will I be able to upgrade directly,and bypass 14.04 altogether? [00:14] sydneyJDykstra: sorry, the bot went mad. [00:15] sydneyJDykstra, nope [00:15] sydneyJDykstra: no, you will need to do 12.04-14.04-16,06 [00:15] I have to go with 14.04? [00:15] ah makes sense now lol. happens sometimes :-) [00:15] sydneyJDykstra, why don't you want 14.04 ? [00:15] not go, just stay as long as the update to 16.04 needs :) === steay is now known as _stefan [00:15] Why did unopaste kick me? [00:16] KurtKraut, I just found the problem. When I was configurating my keyboard I put ç has a "switch to next source using". [00:16] KurtKraut, I change it and now it's working ;) Thank you [00:16] vanderson, de nada. [00:16] I am nervous about upgrading to ubuntu 14.04. I Want it to be something that will take an hour or two,not two days. [00:16] sydneyJDykstra: Sorry, the bot appears to have a bug. It will be removed from the channel until we figure out what's going wrong and fix it. [00:17] Ok,thanks!! [00:17] pdo_fn14: is it showing you the upgrade? [00:17] sydneyJDykstra, you can download the alternate CD and make the upgrade from it, it will faster. [00:17] tim____: Yes. [00:17] What is the alternate cd? [00:18] behave yourself this time unopaste [00:18] Alternate cd is no more, use the mini iso instead [00:19] What is the mini iso? [00:19] sydneyJDykstra: a minimal base OS [00:19] sydneyJDykstra: gives you a command line interface and bare basics of an OS [00:20] I have a slow internet conection. I can download a gb in an hour. [00:20] that's slow? [00:20] sydneyJDykstra: Thats pretty fast. [00:21] i'm asking in #vlc as well, but does anyone know how to fix an issue where vlc goes black from resizing? [00:22] What is wrong from upgading in the live cd itself,what makes a mini iso much better? [00:22] sydneyJDykstra: it for advanced users who know what there doing [00:23] sydneyJDykstra, what is wrog upgrading to 14.04 ? any reason to wait for 16.04? === The_Doctor is now known as Adran [00:23] wrog-wrong [00:23] wrog lol [00:25] InFlames, you could try changing the output/video driver in the vlc settings, if there is such a setting. Try all the available options, e.g. opengl, x11 etc. [00:25] know I sound like a chicken but the main reason is beckause they have not fixed a problem with the noveau drivers,so when I boot from the live cd I have to use nomodeset to boot,and When I upgrade,I don't want to have to fix that. I have filed a bug report about it though. [00:25] sydneyJDykstra: The mini installer kernel and initramfs can be loaded and used via netboot, and Debian Installer also has more options than Ubiquity. [00:25] Also I am not used to procceses that take days. ;) [00:26] I'm getting an 400 URI failure when trying to upgrade to 14.04. I definitely have an internet connection... anyone have a suggestion?

[00:27] pmd: IIRC, that's a server-side error, not an error on your side [00:28] shirox: hit Ctrl-s more often [00:28] Okay, okay. So everyone says that if you're on a beta version of ubuntu 14.04 and you just keep apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade, you'll be on the final release. Is this REALLY true? Is it the SAME exact thing as installing the final release fresh? NO differences? [00:28] hi, have the cinnamon-desktop packages been removed from trusty? [00:29] guesting: sure [00:29] !find cinnamon trusty [00:29] guesting: Well, you'll have the same package versions at least [00:29] File cinnamon found in gamgi-data, mate-themes, muffin-common, openclipart2-png, openclipart2-svg, tdiary-theme [00:29] so it's NOT the same? [00:29] hm [00:29] there might be some weird setting that's bad [00:29] potentially or outdated [00:29] Nobody has an answer for me? [00:29] well obviously your pre-update config could break [00:29] hurumph [00:29] guesting: I can't personally guarantee it will be the same, but the packages won't be outdated [00:29] i have problem with chromium of 12.04, no played youtube videos say undefined errror :S [00:29] guesting: you'd have to nuke your user to get the true out-of-box experience [00:30] sydneyJDykstra, This is support, not ubuntu conjecture. [00:30] is there a way to nuke the installation but keep my music folder? [00:30] sydneyJDykstra, it would take days to answer your trolling questions [00:30] without backing up [00:30] i use pepperflash work fine in others web [00:30] guesting, upload it somewhere [00:30] Sorry. ;) [00:31] kistkon: Without backing up, I just don't want to keep writing tons of files to my ssd [00:31] guesting: The Ubuntu installer can re-install preserving /home/ (even if it's not on a separate partition). Of course, then settings stored in /home/ will be preserved. [00:32] guesting: it is good to have separate /home partition [00:32] if i install unity 8 desktop session once if upgraded and havent restarted will it break my system?

I ask because I am trying to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 and not getting anywhere prmpt is set to lts for update manager and running do-release-upgrade finds nothing [00:43] OerHeks, sorry i can help Mider_ i speak spanish [00:43] IceMage: LTS to LTS upgrades aren't enabled until 14.04.1 . [00:44] I see :/ when is that scheduled to come out? (if any time at all) [00:45] hellow [00:45] Hi [00:47] IceMage: July 24. [00:48] IceMage: you can still do-release-upgrade -d [00:48] if your mirror is up to date [00:50] damn, that's a while. ah well. I've just been messing around with some stuff in a VM [00:53] <[lutchy]> Hello, I've just installed Ubuntu Server 13.10 on a headless box and I am bit curious, how can I check for the reason why a particular package is not included with a release? [00:54] <[lutchy]> For example, 'hwinfo' is included with 12.04 but not with 13.10?

[01:00] Anyone? [01:01] <[lutchy]> Regardless of it being unmaintained, would 12.04 version of 'hwinfo' install and work on 13.10? [01:01] Anyone else using Ubuntu 14.04? [01:02] I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but when I try downloading from the website, the source is from "cloudfront.net" not Ubuntu.com [01:02] <[lutchy]> If I am not mistaken, Cloudfront can act as a CDN, some companies use Cloudfront to distribute downloads [01:03] lutchy: so cloudfront.net hasn't somehow hijacked the download link? [01:03] Isn't that like cloudflare? [01:03] I have a question: Why is Ubuntu asking for a Ubuntu 14.04 disc, and only doing a partial upgrade? [01:03] It won't install completely from Ubuntu, it asked for a dsic. [01:03] *disc [01:04] So no one is having trouble with Ubuntu 14.04's Swap partition not showing up in the "system monitor" [01:04] oh yes, I see now. coudfront is amazon [01:04] <[lutchy]> Actually, I might be wrong, Cloudfront might not be CDN but they do DDoS protection but I am not entirely sure Cloudfront provides CDN too [01:04] <[lutchy]> I know Cloudflare does provide CDN [01:05] cloudfront.net is also responsible for distributing Trojans [01:05] Can anyone help me out here? [01:05] ske1: that's ok. They use different servers to distribute the images. Some people get cloadfront, others get some other server [01:05] ske1: You can always confirm your download is official using the SHAW256SUMS and SHAW256SUMS.gpg from http://releases.ubuntu.com/trusty/ . [01:05] yes, cloudfront is amazon's cdn [01:05] <[lutchy]> ske1, Cloudfront doesn't distribute Trojans, their clients may do [01:05] wisescribe7, did you choose to do updates during install? [01:06] lutchy: is ubuntu a client -- or was the link hijacked [01:06] <[lutchy]> I has mentioned earlier, I just explained what Cloudfront is and I can't speak for Ubuntu... [01:06] lutchy: what is stranger is that when i used chromium to download ubuntu -- two downloads were initiated, one from an university and another from cloudfront.net [01:06] <[lutchy]> It could be likely that Ubuntu is using Cloundfront to distribute Images [01:06] hmm, i wonder which update broke nautilus (browse network no longer works) [01:06] <[lutchy]> Cloudfront has Data Centers all over the globe [01:07] wisescribe7, oh sorry I didn't see that you're upgrading. at what point did the upgrade stop, and what is shown in the terminal? [01:08] wisescribe7, and what command did you issue? [01:09] If you have Ubuntu 14.04 please message me, I have a question about encrypted swap.

I tried blkid, fstab, swapon -a... nothing comes up as confirming having a swap [01:11] When will do-release-upgrade begin working? (It still says "No new release found") [01:12] dmd-: when your mirror updates [01:12] Now, it could be that it is encrypted and the system monitor nor the other system things can read it other than the module reading and writing to it. [01:12] if you are impatient, use the columbia mirror https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/mirror.cc.columbia.edu [01:12] soundconjurer, did you format and recreate swap during install?

[01:16] Seven_Six_Two: Originally I did the sudo do-release-upgrade and it asked for a Ubuntu 14.04 disc [01:16] Seven_Six_Two: MeXTuX: There is no need to run cat as root unless the file "hosts" can only be read by root. [01:16] Jordan_U, oh dm u! I had to look up the append flag. I think the first sudo is needed because he won't get the second's prompt [01:16] then I used Software Updater, still asked for Ubuntu 14.04 disc, now it's doing a "partial upgrade" [01:17] somebody speak spanish?

'all the sudden', I can't suspend my sessions, it keeps creating new ones, orphaning my previous sessions that I can't get back to. Any thoughts on how to stop this? [01:57] i have a problem with monodevelop namespace gtk and gdk could not be found [01:57] any ideas? [01:58] These are my results for my my boot config: paste.ubuntu.com/7272158 Does anyone see why grub2 is not booting on my system even after clean installation of 14.04 64Bit?

Hope everything goes smoothly [02:06] me too [02:06] good luck [02:07] hehe now it is downloading new packages [02:07] it would take a while [02:07] zcheng3: exciting [02:10] zcheng3 are you lucky enough to have a fast connection? [02:11] well. it is not fast at all [02:11] now it is around 20 kb/s [02:11] you? [02:12] Mine tops out at 300 kb/s and I think it is slow. Looks like "slow" is relative! :) [02:12] These are my results for my my boot config: paste.ubuntu.com/7272158 Does anyone see why grub2 is not booting on my system even after clean installation of 14.04 64Bit? [02:13] When will the alternate installer ISO for 14.04 be available to download? [02:13] hey guys, i did an in-place upgrade 13.10 > 14.04, after it was completed looks like I messed up when trying to reinstall a binary Nvidia driver. [02:13] at first it was around 300 kb/s but not it is slowing down [02:13] to 20 kb/s [02:14] machine won't boot into ubuntu now. i've rebooted into a live session but i'm having trouble doing the necessary magic inside a chroot to fix it. [02:14] ubottu: alternative | flan_suse [02:14] flan_suse: The alternate CD has been discontinued for the main Ubuntu distro, please use and report any bugs in the !LiveCD [02:14] :( [02:14] look like a lot of trouble here [02:14] Dang. [02:14] maybe I should have waited for another few days [02:14] you could cancel and select a different mirror [02:15] zcheng3, nah it probably would've worked fine for me if i'd been more diligent about following directions with my driver :) [02:15] do you use the proprietary driver? [02:16] zalgo, yes from the Nvidia website. installable through a script [02:16] well [02:16] when i try to run the install script from chroot, i get this error: [02:16] have you solved your problem? [02:16] well [02:17] hello all. has anyone used a panasonic toughbook CF-52 specifically with ubuntu? [02:17] http://pastebin.com/LXhD59h0 [02:18] that's beyond my knowledge [02:18] sigmabeta3, I used that one as well but had a bit of trouble on upgrades etc, I now use the one in the software and updates page [02:18] 319 [02:18] zalgo, that's fair, but unfortunately i can't boot into ubuntu and make that change [02:18] zalgo, so whatever fix i do, is likely going to involve a chroot [02:18] so you don't even get a cli? [02:19] Ok, who's noticed system monitor on Ubuntu 14.04 shows "not available" for swap. [02:19] *sigmabeta3 [02:19] I would like to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04, but am unable to do so. do-release-upgrade reports that an unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. What could cause this? [02:20] Hi folks [02:20] zalgo, yeah it locks up even if i try to boot into recovery === ubuntu is now known as sigmabeta3 [02:21] Anybody here can help me with my graphic card? [02:21] Is a Radeon HD 2400 Pro. [02:21] I want to install it in my Ubuntu 12.04 [02:21] when I type free - m, my swap displays total = 0, used =0, free =0 [02:22] I created a swap partition on install... and it doesn't seem to work. [02:22] sigmabeta3, I had that problem before, i seem to remember if you modify the grub setting you can get it to boot disregarding the drivers [02:22] i'll try and find it for you [02:23] zalgo, that would be great [02:24] <[lutchy]> soundconjurer, What does "grep swap /etc/fstab" say? [02:25] johnja: if you have any PPAs installed, that might mess up the upgrade calculation. [02:25] :( [02:25] !patience [02:25] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.

[02:30] zalgo, i will try that out. give me a few minutes to see if it works. [02:30] <[lutchy]> soundconjurer, If might be the case, if it's enumerating through fstab, it might have failed to enable one. [02:30] [lutchy], I have tried adding swapoff -a, swapon -a, method in the /etc/rc.local folder [02:30] sigmabeta3, ok [02:30] is it normal for a UUID line to be commented out? [02:30] <[lutchy]> soundconjurer, Alternatively, since the one that points to '/dev/mapper/cryptswap1' that fails [02:31] I removed the comment, but it still fails to start up, I always replace it with a backup file after I see no change. [02:31] <[lutchy]> soundconjurer, You can try 'swapon -U ' [02:31] Oh, crud! I just remember that I installed dangerdeep from svn. Could that foul it up? [02:32] <[lutchy]> soundconjurer, I don't why the one with UUID is commented out unless you enabled encrypted swap... Which I presume what 'cryptswap1' appear to suggest [02:32] swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=#### [02:32] <[lutchy]> soundconjurer, UUID should look like this 'afb4910f-238c-4507-bc80-d7489da3bb1a' [02:33] Yes [02:33] I know [02:33] but I am on my laptop [02:33] and don't want to type it out [02:33] but the Ubuntu computer is my desktop [02:33] <[lutchy]> soundconjurer, Do you have swap partition ?

I have to say that's beyond my know how. I am not typically a Ubuntu user [02:39] I am a Debian user, but my family uses Ubuntu. [02:39] NosecuentA, try use others drivers.. no have open source drivers? [02:40] But Debian 7.0 has a bug that keeps them from being able to use it... the GUI software update for gnome doesn't work at all. [02:40] I don't know if anyone might need this but here's a easy install for nvidia which worked with crunchbang (a debian based distro). I'm not sure if this would directly apply to ubuntu but hopefuly it will help someone at some point. http://tclinux.weebly.com/notes.html [02:40] "Thedemon007" Yes. Actually i have the option of open source divers, but they are working at 60 fps :c === Stats_Ethan_ is now known as Stats_Ethan [02:41] 60 fps is not bad at all... [02:44] 60 FPS is the maximum most monitors will display; anything more than that isn't actually displayed. [02:44] zalgo, no dice :/ [02:44] Yes, i know it. But when i was using Windows, with the same graphic card i got 100 fps on Counter Strike (Steam) [02:45] yes :) 60fps is not bad.. NosecuentA, what graphic card have? lspci | grep "VGA" [02:45] zalgo, it's weird, on booting with the grub options "text" and "nomodeset" i get all the way to a login terminal and then my machine locks up [02:45] But now, using the open source drivers i just have 60fps and the game is annoying. [02:45] the open source drivers are a bit slower [02:45] How is the game annoying at 60 FPS? [02:45] you could try turning down the graphics settings [02:45] 60 FPS and 100 FPS will be the same on almost every monitor. [02:45] They'll both be displayed at 60 FPS. [02:46] get rid of V-SYNC [02:46] sigmebeta3, hmm can you ctrl alt F1? [02:46] I play it at the min in windows and linux [02:46] V-SYNC will ruin almost any game. [02:46] usually the issue is that if your average fps is 60, that means it might fall to 30 or below at times when lots of stuff is happening on screen [02:46] I'm running 12.04LTS now, have notify set for new LTS releases, but it's not showing up as an option to upgrade within software updater... is this by design? Was the upgrade disabled for some reason? [02:46] zalgo, when i say locks up i mean no keyboard input whatsoever works, not even numlock or magic sysrq keys [02:46] yenic run sudo apt-get update [02:46] Yes, but the valve engine in Linux felt the difference between been working at 100 (Win) or 60 (Fps) [02:46] I really wish I could fix this cryptswap stuff. [02:46] isn't the lts -> lts upgrade frozen, pending 14.04.1? [02:46] whats the cmd for the lts->lts upgrade faq? [02:46] It is upsetting me.

[02:48] !ltsupgrade [02:48] hmph [02:48] sigmabeta3, I don't mean to insult your intelligence but you did the no splash as well? [02:48] hmm there may not be a faq item about it [02:48] zalgo, no insult taken. no splash as well. [02:48] But the engine of the game feel the difference. [02:48] mikeche1en I don't recall ever seeing that factoid ... there is a wiki entry though [02:48] I can say that the game is not the same [02:49] !lts [02:49] LTS means Long Term Support.

[03:07] but it doesnt work [03:08] OSaddict, avconv and a shell script. I don't think there is a tool that lets you remove frames leaving an intact video. Yes, the same tools will let you create video from images. [03:08] cfhowlett: It's still showing up as Ubuntu for whatever reason, even the system says Ubuntu 14.04 when I go to "About This Computer". [03:08] OSaddict, I use avconv to turn images in to time-lapse videos. [03:08] hopefully this fix I found works... [03:08] OSaddict doable [03:08] *crosses fingers* [03:09] wisescribe7 aboutthiscomputer = ubuntu is normal. [03:09] Alright, I'll try that. I'm just wanting to remove those frames at those points where the game lagged, so that the final video looks smooth. [03:10] wisescribe7 I think this is the link to see; http://www.junauza.com/2012/07/how-to-customize-ubuntu-splash-and.html === Jan11 is now known as ON1 [03:10] cfhowlett: Oh OK, so since I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 why is my background Xubuntu wallpaper? [03:11] OSaddict: thats rather snapping, and proper video editor would be handy, you know hollywood style cinelerra [03:11] wisescribe7 because (you said) you installed the xubuntu artwork at some point [03:11] OSaddict, have you tried using a smaller video, or not scaling on the fly? What will it look like on a computer that is faster? [03:11] I tried cinelerra, but it crashes every time I import video. [03:12] OSaddict: my bad, kino? [03:12] kino is for raw video. [03:12] OSaddict scaledown would definitely help. on 1080, my system is practically useless. try 720 on openshot [03:12] cfhowlett: So how do I get it back to the Ubuntu 14.04 artwork? [03:12] wisescribe7 http://www.junauza.com/2012/07/how-to-customize-ubuntu-splash-and.html [03:12] yeah, I would recommend downscaling, trying different codec, or displaying at native size if its scaled. [03:12] can it be considered safe to use bleachbit to remove "dangling symlink"? === nveselinov__ is now known as nveselinov [03:13] Seven_Six_Two I think Ubuntu tweak also has login image options but I've never used it [03:13] hplc, unnecessary. symlink isn't file [03:14] cfhowlett, sorry, I was talking to OSaddict, not wisescribe7 [03:14] Seven_Six_Two, how can i best deal with those then? [03:14] What are the best permissions to give an apache php server? [03:14] What exactly do you mean by scaledown? The video itself doesn't lag. It's just that the gameplay lagged when I recorded it and my video shows it. I've already completed that part of the game, though. [03:14] tnk: Hey, did you ever get that issue sorted out with your sound? [03:15] hplc, to be clear, you're talking about a symlink pointing to a file that no longer exists? [03:15] Installing Kino right now... I'll see what it can do. [03:15] Seven_Six_Two, yes [03:15] herpderphurr, no!!!! [03:15] please help [03:15] OSaddict, oh sorry, I thought that the video was for a cutscene in a game that you're making. [03:15] hplc, just remove it with rm [03:15] tnk: Which kernel version are you running right now? [03:16] !who [03:16] As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [03:16] No, it's basically a Let's Play. [03:16] algun canal de xubuntu [03:16] OSaddict, you won't be able to edit it with kino. that's for digital camera videos. [03:16] donde me pueda unir [03:16] What do you recommend? [03:16] OSaddict, convert to mpg and edit it in OpenShot [03:16] ahhhhhh???? [03:16] can anyone help me? I am having a problem with python on 14.04 [03:16] 3 0 11 20 [03:16] herpderphurr, [03:16] OSaddict, you can split and reassemble, then export [03:17] this is hard to type out, bear with me a moment [03:17] 3 0 11 19 has sound, but then everything else breaks with it [03:17] I'm using Openshot right now, but it doesn't play it back precisely, and the first 20 seconds of my video were cut off when I imported. [03:17] I did it 3 times with the same result. [03:17] error: command '['/home/ubuntu/git/venv/bin/python3.4', '-Im', 'ensurepip', '--upgrade', '--default-pip']' returned non-zero exit status 1 [03:18] tnk: Is that 3.0.11-20? [03:18] yeah [03:18] OSaddict, then reimport, and don't judge the vid until you've reexported it. playback from within openshot can lag if its processing on the flyu [03:18] i am trying to run 'pyvenv-3.4 venv' [03:18] Just installed 14.04.... love it so far.. only question is this.. I have an nvidia card.. a good one.. and my 2d animations ... like windows motion, minimize, maximize and such are jaggy... sluggish... I've installed the nvidia propriatary drivers.. what gives? I should be smooth as silk all around.. [03:18] OSaddict, did you convert before importing? [03:18] Anyone able to take a stab at a password recovery issue? I can repeat question, just do not want to spam channel. [03:19] tnk: Hmm... can you double check by running "uname -a"? I can't find 3.0 kernels in the repos (they are quite old) [03:19] semaj81, what's the output of glxinfo | grep direct [03:19] http://puu.sh/8d9cq.png [03:19] No, I just used recordmydesktop, which by default created a .ogv [03:19] cfhowlett: The page you gave me a link to talked about installing Plymouth Manager. It's saying it's unable to locate the package [03:20] herpderphurr, i double checked [03:20] can anyone help me with ubuntu 14.04 i need to get a venv working! [03:20] 3 11 0 20 - generic herpderphurr [03:20] wisescribe7 see ubuntu-tweak [03:20] What happened to Ubuntu? [03:20] tnk: All right. thanks. Let me think here..... [03:20] OSaddict, try converting it to mpg first. It'll work better. You should be able to convert with handbrake, avconv, transmageddon, or any other video transcoder. [03:20] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272578/ [03:21] window 9 [03:21] Just a moment Seven_Six_Two ... [03:21] window/ [03:21] herpderphurr, i'm thinking of upgrading to 14.0 lts.. and seeing if that works.. or at least trying the live cd first, adn seeing if sound is good and if google chrome/chromium is stable.. which is another problem.. [03:21] you think? [03:21] Alright. So is Openshot not good at handling .ogv video? [03:22] I've never had much luck with it, except for playback. [03:22] tnk: A LiveCD wouldn't hurt. [03:22] Since upgrading to 14.04, I've seen *two* application-not-responding dialog boxes. [03:22] Is 14.04 considered stable yet? [03:22] According to https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1299080, I'm no longer supposed to see the gtk-window-decorator one. But I do. [03:22] Launchpad bug 1299080 in Unity "[UIFe] New style force-quit window dialog" [Medium,Fix committed] [03:22] OSaddict, I always do mpg, since it's essentially interleaved images, without video compression. [03:23] OSaddict, released today. It's stable for me. [03:23] (So I see both the libunity dialog thing *and* the one in compiz.) [03:23] herpderphurr, let's see if we can solve it though even without going to that extreme of installing yet another upgrade, which may have even more problems.. [03:23] OSaddict: I've had no problems with it since december other than python related >.< [03:23] OSaddict, ymmv! [03:23] Seven_Six_Two, here is the output.. https://i.imgur.com/JLLx6a6.png === zz_nhayashi is now known as nhayashi [03:24] I'll just try converting it to plain, raw, uncompressed video for editing. [03:25] Does 14.04 still use Compiz? 13.10 lagged like hell on my laptop, which made me downgrade to good ol' 12.04. [03:25] semaj81, thanks. you should check out pastebin. It's great for text. You're using the nv driver [03:25] OSaddict, yes, you want mpeg(mpg). They're just jpg flipbooks [03:25] I know.. pastebin is easier.. lol.. So everything should be fine then? [03:26] Just feels very heavy to me... [03:26] semaj81, yes. you can also check the framerate with glxgears [03:26] Said.. 300 frames in 5 seconds.. 60.006 fps.. [03:26] Can't beat that I guess.. [03:26] semaj81, in the software centre, you can try changing to one of the other nvidia drivers. I've had past luck doing that, but be warned that a problem might leave you with just a terminal to fix it with. [03:27] tnk: If I remember right, a kernel driver that should have been packaged with the kernel wasn't... well.. packaged. Can you use Synaptic or Aptitude and look up package linux-image-3.11.0-20-generic? [03:27] Yeah.. it's just hard to describe.. unity just feels.. heavy.. [03:27] Seven_Six_Two, so you mean, mpeg-1, not 2 or 3? or does it not matter? [03:28] Greetings. I am trying to run Xen but it is booting to busybox. Should Xen has an initrd file in /boot? [03:28] sure [03:28] semaj81, what desktop do you use? unity? There are settings to change those animations, so you might want to look at that. [03:28] Will do.. yes, Unity.. I actually like it.. Not sure what is popular these days.. [03:29] Did they bring back Unity 2d? [03:29] herpderphurr, what do you want to see/what's the cle to paste you? [03:29] OSaddict, mp3 is actually an extension to mpeg-1 and mpeg-2 [03:29] tnk: Sure, that can help. [03:29] What exactly is supposed to stop gtk-window-decorator from displaying that dialog? [03:30] herpderphurr ??? [03:30] stupid ecryptfs, making my swap unusable. Time to clean install without the encryption. === paulus68_ is now known as paulus68 [03:32] tnk: Sorry. misread your message. Actually, start Synaptic Package Manager, search for "linux-image-3.11.0-20-generic" [03:32] and then? [03:32] Seven_Six_Two, it actually seems to be getting better.... [03:33] FFmpeg tells me that it's deprecated and to use avconv instead, but avconv isn't found. === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [03:33] tnk: take a look at its properties, and tell me who is its Maintainer, and what section it's in [03:35] I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04 through usb made in unetbootin , I get message saying there is "too little memory" when I select any of the options [03:35] do you ubuntu already installed on one of your machines? [03:36] How long does an upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 take? I have been on ubiquity for half an hour. [03:36] notyoureverydayS you're asking if the people in the ubuntu channel have installed ubuntu? [03:37] jellow you need about 2 gb free [03:37] herpderphurr, ubuntu kernel team.. 3 11 0 20 generic [03:37] allstarsnorks2 it takes time to download ... [03:37] i would love to upgrade.. what should the most current kernel be? [03:37] notyoureverydayS, well are you asking if a certain version is is stalled? [03:38] yes, i am. because its better to set up the disk using the built in disk creator and not another open source option due to formating reasons [03:38] cfhowlett, I have 1876 memory , on a side note i get the same message in memtest [03:38] jellow try a different usb [03:38] tnk: I think the most recently released stable kernel would be kernel version 3.14, but it'll take some time before that makes it to Ubuntu's repos (You can always download and compile it yourself though. Takes me ~45 minutes to do that, though) [03:38] cfhowlett, would you recommend unetbootin ? [03:39] jellow it usually works quite well [03:39] jellow, what is the diagnosis on the usb disk? [03:39] hehe upgrade had errors [03:39] is erasing 13.10 and installing 14.04 option faster than upgrade 13.10 to 14.04 option? [03:39] herpderphurr, i'll stick with the supported deb packages.. compiling myself seems it will breed problems or not be able to reverse.. [03:40] tnk: reasonable enough. One thing that I think might lead to a solution is to downgrade the kernel version you're using (e.g. use a 3.8, 3.5, or 3.2 kernel) if you don't absolutely need the features of the newer kernels. [03:41] allstarsnorks2, I think the upgrade would be faster, but just erasing and reinstalling is way more reliable! [03:41] The older kernels might not have the same problems as the new ones, and they should still receive security updates. [03:41] tnk, herpderphurr if you have the skill then compile them, if you dont but want to like to compile use a differnce pc then you main pc [03:41] notyoureverydayS, not sure how to tell dmesg does not show any erros [03:42] herpderphurr, other ideas? [03:42] OSaddict, allstarsnorks2 yes a reinstall would be as OSaddict says [03:42] tnk: what are you trying to accomplish? [03:43] tnk: Well, we could go to -19 and fix the issues that the older kernel introduces. [03:43] i want to remove libvirt-bin and reinstall it [03:43] see http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272728/ [03:43] tnk: I can't do much with -20, since we confirmed -20 seems to not install with the snd-hda-intel.ko sound driver [03:43] i am getting some warnings [03:43] Ben64, desperately trying to fix audio problems with ubuntu 13.10.. and linux 3 11 0 20 [03:43] tnk: why do you keep posting the version like that? [03:43] idk [03:43] I've heard that there was a power-management regression in one of the kernel versions. Is that still present in 3.12? [03:44] Ben64, can you help me fix it? I've tried everything I can think of and find [03:44] How to remove libvirt completely ? [03:44] jellow, then it must be the download. it's a pain in the butt but you may just be better off deleting the disk and redownloading your disk maker and the ubuntu iso [03:44] tnk: i'd suggest upgrading to 14.04, 13.10 only has 3 months of life left [03:44] tnk sudo apt-get install --reinstall libvirt? [03:44] >make sure every bit is deleted too [03:45] what's libvirt? [03:45] Ben64, yeah, iw as thinking of testing the livecd and then installing it if it works with audio and if chromium is stable... [03:45] tnk, sudo apt-get purge --reinstall libvirt [03:45] Scan_results error (-22). What's that? [03:45] OSaddict: i don't think you're talking to the right person [03:45] tnk: libvirt is a virtualization front-end library. [03:46] i got stuck with libvirt-bin [03:46] It gives a unified interface for controlling qemu, kvm, virtualbox &etc. [03:46] I removed and reinstalled it. But i am getting an error like : TRACE nova.virt.driver ImportError: libvirt.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [03:46] hi ther [03:47] i want to run sudo update-manager from commandline, but want to detach it from the terminal, so that i can close the terminal, how ? [03:47] I think, i missed some thing while reinstalling that ? [03:48] why silv3r_m00n? [03:48] see http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272728/, purge operation showing some warnings. How to delete those files ? [03:48] jitsusama, what's it going to do? will that fix the audio? or fix all the systemd socket errors i get startup up? [03:48] Anarchic: just like that, once i was upgrading, and suddenly the system became unstable and terminal was forced to closed which took down the update manager with it [03:49] saju_m: you should use apt-get instead of aptitude [03:49] tnk: I don't know enough about your system, but I can honestly say not having libvirt shouldn't effect you if you're not aware of what it is. [03:49] silv3r_m00n, try "sudo apt-get update" in a terminal [03:49] Ben64: I already tried apt-get, no luck [03:49] I decided to reformat for this upgrade, and have been running a deja dup backup for quite some time. I'm getting an error telling me that a location doesn't exist. [03:49] The question is whether you have other apps installed that rely on it for some reason. [03:49] Is there a way to browse deja-dup backups so I can just retrieve the files I want? [03:49] tnk: ignore all the libvirt stuff, they're mistaking you for saju_m [03:49] avconv is failing on me. [03:50] saju_m: pastebin that error, please [03:50] Ben64, ok [03:50] Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height [03:50] tnk: If Chromium is breaking on kernel 3.11.0-19-generic, that seems more fixable than fixing a weird kernel package [03:50] I just did avconv -i out-13.ogv out-13.mpg [03:50] tnk: If that's the only problem, I think we can work with that. [03:51] saju_m: Are you trying to remove libvirt altogether and re-add it, or just libvirt-bin? [03:51] Ben64: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272753/ [03:51] Anarchic: apt-get update and upgrade all done, now need to run update-manager [03:52] herpderphurr, Ben64 .. ok i'm burning the new live 14.. i will try that [03:52] jitsusama: libvirt altogether [03:52] Anyone know how to use avconv? === root_ is now known as Guest78184 [03:52] Ok, I would start with removing libvirt. [03:52] saju_m: theres probably more packages installed about libvirt, remove all of them at once [03:52] jitsusama: libvirt altogether and re-add it [03:52] It should clear out libvirt-bin and everything else. [03:52] so .. upgrade said ... finished upgrade with errors .... should i assume my system state is okay to reboot ? [03:52] I believe libvirt is the library package. [03:52] silv3r_m00n, the update manager is just a GUI for apt-get...you're done === Guest78184 is now known as RahulAN [03:53] what happens when Ubuntu releases reach the end of the alphabet? [03:53] jitsusama: yes, it is a library [03:53] Hello, people im looking for Akuma [03:53] I know, I mean libvirt-bin is cli programs for the library project. [03:53] jitsusama: how to remove those type of packages [03:53] You want to delete the library, which should delete all of the apps that rely on it at once. [03:53] Join my channel its channel #1 [03:53] herpderphurr, then we go with Chinese characters. [03:53] Let me look on my boxen. [03:54] xsirh stop spamming this channel please [03:54] I can't remember all of the package names. [03:54] jitsusama: any easy step [03:54] sorry just want people to talk to [03:54] saju_m: Yeah, I think I'll be able to find one. [03:54] I love libvirt so much btw. [03:55] There is bugs with certain versions of Ubuntu with it though. [03:55] What rev are you running? [03:55] I've just tried second usb and checked the md5sum on the iso , I cannot load kernel image into memory insufficient memory when I try to boot. [03:55] Of Ubuntu. [03:55] Does anyone know how to speed up the Unity dash? Sometimes, it takes 10 seconds to find a program. [03:56] I'm having a little trouble finding documentation about ubgrading from Ubuntu 14.04 -*BETA*- to the final 14.04 release. Any takers? [03:56] !final|MaximumTimbo [03:56] MaximumTimbo: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Trusty and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 14.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. [03:58] jitsusama: see, I had libvirt0.9.8 by default on my ubuntu 12.04. Later i installed libvirt1.2 from source. And later i removed that using the command#make uninstall. Then now, I am trying to install default libvirt 0.9 back using #sudo apt-get install libvirt-bin. That got installed. But getting error when ruiing my application which using libvirt. Erro:http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272765/ [03:58] !netinstall | jellow [03:58] jellow, please see my private message [03:58] It's not loading up the dynamic library file. [03:58] curious.

[03:59] Look for any .a or .so files. [03:59] And Cinnamon's menu is instantaneous! === sz0` is now known as sz0 [04:00] MaximumTimbo, OSaddict: install SSD, get more RAM? [04:00] I'm thinking you have conflicting library files installed. make uninstall might not have done its job. [04:00] OSaddict, Mine is really fast, but I have disabbled many things === sz0 is now known as sz0` [04:00] OSaddict, Do you have tweak unity? [04:01] jitsusama: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272771/ [04:01] TDemon [04:01] MaximumTimbo, Yep. [04:01] Thedemon007 [04:01] Can I disable some of the web-based content. I think that's slowing it down. [04:02] saju_m: sudo ldconfig -v | grep libvirt [04:02] OSaddict: you can do that in 13.10. Look in the System Settings [04:02] OSaddict, well I'm not into the whole search the internet for everything that Unity pushes, so I have disabled many of these features [04:02] jitsusama: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272778/ [04:02] We are trying to find a way to store a few bytes of data in the case of an unrecoverable error, such as an uncorrectable ECC error, watchdog timeout, etc, on a standard PC platform. We have a custom platform with a small NVRAM attached that we use for this. But we aren't sure what's available on a standard PC. I looked at the NVRAM for the BIOS/CMOS, but I can't seem to find a map of "unused" bytes in that region. Any hints? Is there a way [04:03] Ah ha, changed. [04:03] That might've fixed ya. [04:03] Try loading it again. [04:03] Do you still have libvirt-bin installed btw? [04:03] If not, you might want to load that first. [04:04] jitsusama: yes, libvirt-bin is there. [04:04] jitsusama: How tol load that [04:04] Hrmm.. I use too many Linux's. [04:05] herpderphurr, which System Settings icon is it under? [04:05] I'm trying to remember the Ubuntu command for restarting services. [04:05] Ah yes, service. === blindsight|znc| is now known as blindsight [04:05] sudo service restart libvirt-bin [04:05] Then try sudo virsh [04:06] jitsusama, stop then start is how I do wit samba... maybe same for your\ [04:06] That's right, upstart. [04:07] I think libvirt is still the old rc.d setup on the Ubuntu version he's running. [04:07] jitsusama: see, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272793/ [04:07] Awesome. [04:07] Try the command sysinfo and see if you get a response. [04:07] As long as it's not an error, you should be ready for business. [04:08] I don't know if you have any VMs defined yet, if you did, I would say just use the list command. [04:08] jitsusama: sysinfo command not found [04:08] saju_m: You'd want to run that command from virsh. [04:09] jitsusama: ok [04:09] Ben64, be back in a few.. will try this live cd now [04:09] jitsusama: yes, its working [04:09] Awesome. [04:10] So, here's what happened. [04:10] jitsusama: which command got fixed this issue ? [04:10] You compiled and installed from source. [04:10] At some time your library file cache was rebuilt. [04:10] You did a make uninstall, then installed the binary. [04:10] Your library file cache didn't get rebuilt. [04:11] So, when the libvirt daemon tried to load, Linux didn't have a cache of the proper library file loaded. [04:11] So, it couldn't dynamically link it with the binary. [04:11] This caused the failure. [04:11] Running ldconfig recreated the library file cache. [04:11] jitsusama:ok, got it [04:11] Whenever you muck around with .so files, you want to run ldconfig to "refresh" your library file cache. [04:12] Otherwise, binaries won't know where to find their library files. [04:13] jitsusama:thanks, Let me try to create VM [04:13] OSaddict: I think the application for it is gnome-control-center [04:13] /61 [04:13] Sure thing, I should be around for a bit yet. [04:14] I forgot how addicting IRC was. [04:14] jitsusama: irc [04:14] jitsusama: and booze :) [04:14] herpderphurr: I opened System Settings. Now what do I click?

[04:19] clue_h, yes my friend [04:19] and one tray to bind them [04:19] haha [04:19] One launcher to rule them all, one launcher to find them, one launcher... [04:19] Darn, you beat me to it! [04:19] :D [04:19] Guest41206: sure.. i'll help you.. just install ubuntu, and use it "as-is" for a while.. dont go removing lanuchers and changing things as a "noob" [04:19] ive got ubuntu setup how i would like it with docky its nice [04:19] Yeah, that's what Mac OS X is for! [04:19] Guest41206: then, enjoy [04:20] just need to list all my installed apps [04:20] Guest41206: you can add whatevrer you like to docky to do that, or add the default setup back.. [04:20] you said [04:20] Guest41206, so you want to see all apps graphically instead of the dpkg -l way? [04:21] i like in dash home how i could see all installed apps [04:21] i need a way todo this now as i disabled unity [04:21] OSaddict: Security & Privacy -> Search tab -> Set to off [04:21] just go in /usr/share/applications and see the desktop icons [04:21] Guest41206: add that to docky, friend.. right click and add what you like [04:22] Guest41206: http://alternativeto.net/software/gnome-do/?platform=linux [04:22] when doing apt-get upgrade, sometimes it shows, The following packages have been kept back: , why does it do so ? [04:23] Sometimes because they are blocked by another package, sometimes because they require manual intervention to install. [04:23] hi. my wirless quit working after installing 14.04 [04:23] any suggestions? [04:23] aptitude is usually nice to figure out the why. [04:23] Ahmuck: fix it [04:23] Ahmuck: please share the full information [04:23] Ahmuck: the chipset, etc.. [04:23] Also whats the best way to install android on linux, as my girlfriend wants to play some games [04:23] Ahmuck, try cleaning the vinyl and placing the stylus back on [04:24] Guest41206: Android already runs on Linux. What do you mean? [04:24] Ahmuck: you are going to be looking for someone with your exact hardware to help you.. here or in a forum, or mailing list [04:24] Guest41206: do you mean an Android emulator for Ubuntu? [04:24] Guest41206: ask in an android channel. nothing about linux/ubuntu is preventing those games from running on it [04:24] herpderphurr: yes i need to know how to install games from the google play [04:24] Guest41206: there's an emulator, they call it an sdk [04:25] reisio: i see there is an sdk and some eumlators i wanted to know which will run the fastest to play the games [04:25] Anyone here familiar with ps3mediaserver that can help me configure it? [04:26] Guest41206: I bet vbox... [04:26] Guest41206: Those emulators are not going to leave a positive experience. I use those emulators for development, and they are jittery and slow. [04:26] :D [04:26] as is Android [04:26] authentic much [04:26] the controller is a Qualcom Atheros AR9287 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI Express) (rev01) [04:26] looks like my system has every possible graphic driver known to xserver [04:27] Ahmuck, try 'rfkill list' to list devices to see if any are blocked, if so, rfkill unblock wlan0 for example [04:27] Now that we are on this topic does anyone have any good gameboy emulators that i can download from the software center? i ask because the last time i did the stupid thing slowed down the performance and took up way to much space. [04:27] i have similar chipset [04:27] it's not blocked [04:27] oh [04:28] d [04:28] lagbox: the kernel is modular, with many drivers included [04:30] Does anyone know if there is a way to install fontconfig-infinality on 14.04? Once I upgraded to 14.04 it got removed. [04:33] whats the fastest android emulator .android-x86.org or genymotion? [04:33] Guest41206: none will let you do what you are trying to do [04:33] why not i read on google you can play android games on ubuntu [04:33] Guest41206: you should just start trying them.. [04:34] Guest41206: i find, as was said above a few times, they are for development, and not appropriate for what you are tring to do [04:34] Guest41206: you should ask in an android support channel [04:35] Guest41206: do you know that tablet with better performance that thoese will cost you 30 quid? [04:36] Guest41206: your gf might acctualy like gift and stop using your own box, win-win [04:36] she already has a nexus 7 tablet, but i wanted to give that to her sister [04:37] half-win [04:38] I can't click on anything on any of my virtual desktops (i.e. icons/programs). I can only run programs from the Kmenu. ubuntu 12.04 Any ideas? [04:39] apb1963: i would try as another user, and remove my user config from the equation for troubleshooting. the guest account should tell you something [04:40] holstein: sudo - randomuser ?? [04:40] apb1963: nothing sudo.. [04:40] oops [04:40] su - randomuser [04:40] apb1963: i mean, just use another user.. or the guest account [04:43] is there a way I can add a ppa from a prvious release? as it doesn't seem to like it when I do sudo apt-get update I get the following error http://pastebin.com/YqSW0cg5 [04:45] aneks: you shouldnt.. you should ask the maintainers for a version for the operating system you are using.. or you may need to build/maintain it yourself [04:48] holstein: I'm not sure what happened, but when I switched VT's, I guess I was logged out or... maybe my session crashed??? I logged back in, and the problem was gone.... at least for now. [04:48] I'm still having trouble changing my Ubuntu 14.04 desktop theme back to the default theme from this Xubuntu theme, can anyone please help? [04:49] any clues as to why changes to nofile in /etc/security/limits.conf wouldn't apply? (12.04 LTS) [04:49] i have services that run on boot, and even after a restart, when I check /proc/pid/limits I still see the default [04:49] hello! Can someone help me please? === ubuntu is now known as Guest93697 [04:50] aneks: dO ->http://ppa.launchpad.net/no1wantdthisname/ppa/ubuntu/dists/ <- And you will seethat trusty is not available. Disable the sources. [04:50] ubuntu: just ask [04:50] Alright, thanks. Wine won't install, how do I remedy this? It keeps saying it can't find wine1.7 or wine1.6 or something, despite me having the proper PPA's connected [04:51] I'm on 14.04 === robgraves1 is now known as robgraves [04:51] Guest41206: there are no "proper ppa's" [04:51] !ppa [04:51] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [04:52] Well, the one recommended by the Wine site, so I guess I should've said the "official" PPA for Wine [04:52] Wouldn't a proper PPA be a clean one? [04:52] Guest41206: purge tthem and install the repo versions [04:52] i suppose answer to my question may be that upstart/services ignore security/ [04:53] How do I purge? "purge ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa"? [04:53] @MedicalJaneParis , exactly... [04:54] Guest93697, it should be a sudo depending on what youve already done and preferences [04:55] so the service im using only has an init.d script [04:55] notyoureverydayS: Would going to the Software Center and removing the packages from there be the same thing? [04:55] do i just create a conf file with the same name, and put "limit nofile 4096 4096"? [04:56] notyoureverydayS: Also, I tried installing Wine without screwing around with PPA's at first, and that didn't work either [04:56] Guest93697: just purge and elaboarate about "didnt work" with the repo version of wine [04:57] Guest93697: otherwise, you ask the maintainers providing support fo the ppas for support [04:57] Guest93697, app purge is alot better due to it going directly off the disk and it not throwing it out of your repository via another directory command. [04:57] ah, so init is upstart, init.d traditional... [04:57] So i can't seem to install updates every time i try it says you do not have permission to preform this action [04:57] Here's the error that I got: http://i.imgur.com/jl7aJ9V.png [04:58] Guest93697, go look at some command docs and how good are you at bash? [04:58] not very, lol [04:59] ahhh got it [04:59] Guest93697: correct.. the dependencies cannot be resolved. so, either use the one that works from the repo, or let the ppa team know the ppa has dependency issues [04:59] i can just put ulimit in the init.d script :) [04:59] Can anyone help me get the default Ubuntu 14.04 theme back on my desktop? [05:00] Guest, im privating you. I'm in a helping mood tonight [05:00] Hmmm, alright. Has anyone else had trouble installing Wine in 14.04 or has it been just me? [05:00] no,neocomplete is conflicted with supertab,when supertab is enable,i can't expand a snip,but if i diable supertab, neocomplete is working propely [05:01] how cant i solve this problem.............. [05:01] Also, could the fact that I'm running off of a Live CD be the reason why it won't install? [05:01] Guest93697: correct.. i did "sudo apt-get install wine" in 14.04, and had expected performance [05:02] jitsusama:thanks, I could able to create VM vioa Horizon dashboad. [05:03] Guest, yes, thats exactly the reason. how much space is on it? [05:03] Awesome. [05:03] can anyone tell me how to fix the xfce-dusk white text bug. it turns my firefox text white [05:03] i'm on ubuntu 12.04lts [05:03] I've only done it via CLI. [05:03] Probably much easier with a GUI :) [05:03] if I change them I can see text [05:03] It says I still have over 2 GB to play with [05:04] so I don't think memory should be a problem here [05:04] only problem is I like dusk text best [05:04] hi [05:04] how areyou?? [05:05] So i can't seem to install updates every time i try it says you do not have permission to preform this action [05:07] Bray90820: in a terminal, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ...share errors [05:08] any know where 2 get themes ?

[05:21] Bray90820: you say your update manager is broken.. i dont know why.. so i would have backups and try the other option on the link i gave you [05:21] Bray90820: theres a "server" option.. try that after backing up your data [05:21] Is Ubuntu 14.04 more lightweight than 13.10?

[05:41] m000gle, what problems are you experiencing? [05:41] 1. The LiveUSB boots and installs fine; 2. Upon rebooting, the grub loader runs as expected, and once Ubuntu 14.04 is selected, I'm greeted with a blank screen; 3. Recovery mode can boot fine into a shell ... My guess is this is a video driver issue, with my legacy ATI card (HD4870) not working well with kernel 3.13 [05:41] it fixed my 3d driver and now I can actually boot [05:41] 14.04 64-bit [05:43] do only like 3 people work on ubuntu?

[07:55] bazhang: Also, I like rolling release distros so LTS would suit me like 12.04 right? :D [07:55] Is it possible that there is a problem with the Nvidia drivers for 14.04 - it seems like something is not right with OpenCL [07:55] ikonia: Haha! [07:55] ikonia: I meant I am running Ubuntu 13.04 [07:55] OpenCL or OpenGL? [07:55] My window manager disappeared while installing, anyone have ideas?

[08:17] Running 12.04 LTS, can I just go straight to 14.04, or do I need to go through every upgrade in between? [08:17] I just installed ubuntu server 14.04 and let it "use the whole disk and set up lvm" with 80gb size. It still boots after 30 minutes saying that it is "adding 4000000k swap on /dev/mapper/HOSTNAME--vg-swap_1." [08:17] wildc4rd: You can upgrade straight to 14.04. [08:17] Use the do-release-upgrade tool. [08:17] is that normally taking so long, or is something wrong? [08:17] I haven't used lvm before [08:18] 14.04 and 13.10 are like heaven and earth if we talk about speed. how did you do that? :) [08:19] Fanthomas90: I'm not that familiar with LVM, but no that doesn't strike me as normal.

[08:31] or can i make it listing failing packages? [08:32] 12.04 > 14.04 sudo do-release-upgrade No new release found, do I need new sources.list?

[09:30] PatBateman, if you are up to date, you are good [09:30] ok [09:30] PatBateman: dist-upgrade is not for 13.10 to 14.04 upgrades. please see the apt documentation [09:30] !apt | PatBateman [09:30] PatBateman: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.

[09:33] pong [09:34] so what's happening in this IRC channel? [09:34] PatBateman: yes, to get all updates. you still need that command even if you are on a final release. if you would read about apt you would already understand that [09:34] pnm123: not much [09:34] pnm123: technical ubuntu support [09:34] cool!

[10:24] salsero|2, what puzzles me is that when I use grub-install from the terminal during the LiveUSBStick boot of th 64 bits version, grub-install does not detect that it is in fact running in EFI mode, It spits out an error telling me that I should calll grub-install with the partition to install grub into as parameter.

[10:30] you got to mount /, then boot/efi [10:30] sudipto: bat battery on the motherboard? [10:31] and the do chroot into that enviornment [10:31] sudipto: *bad [10:31] snpresent, no, you need to install gufw to enable the firewall [10:31] Which name in /dev/ should i use with mkfs to make a ramdisk?

[10:34] awl, most soundcards are detected fine [10:34] Hi guy's, whazzz up?? [10:34] snpresent, the 'firewall' or IP tables are build into the kernel, is not enabled, you only need to install and setup GUFW [10:34] Ubuntu currently using unity? or gnome? [10:35] shunya_chakra: unity [10:35] snpresent, after install, gufw can be found in 'system sttings' [10:35] shunya_chakra: i have kde :) [10:35] shunya_chakra, unity on gnome3 [10:35] when will unity 8 be implemented [10:35] shunya_chakra: but you can install gnome if you want.. I think there might even be a gnome variant of ubuntu [10:35] sudipto, it is, in 14.04 [10:35] OerHeks: its not, 7.2.0 [10:35] hm.. but i want is change my icon [10:36] i want like more flat look...

I read somewhere only Samsung and Intel SSDs are supported by default [10:38] snpresent, what OS is the firewall enabled by default? [10:38] salsero|2, is this documentation still valid? (Last updated for Lucid): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot [10:38] OerHeks pcbsd [10:39] snpresent, might want to ask them why they are the only ones, i never seen a default enabled firewall [10:39] snpresent: bsd focuses on security and reliability.. ubuntu caters to a different crowd, if you ask me [10:41] Hi. I'm trying to install ubuntu-14.04-server-amd64.iso via USB drive. all works fine until "Install the GRUB boot loader". The installer executes 'grub-install /dev/sda' and fails with a fatal error. No wonder, sda is the USB drive. sdb is the SSD I install to. any way to work around this? [10:41] Quick question. I'm running 12.04, upgrading directly to 14.04 through terminal. Is that okay? (data is backed-up). Or do I have to go through 13.04 and 13.10? [10:42] Slart ok then [10:42] !upgrade | cabbage4th, you can go from LTS to LTS [10:42] cabbage4th, you can go from LTS to LTS: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [10:42] ubottu: thanks. [10:42] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [10:43] Vacuity: you can run grub-install manually [10:43] hi guys i just upgraded to 14 from 13 and get a grub error of grub term highlight color not found, it looks like i need to chroot and reinstall grub, my system is raided how do i properly mount the raid partition and do the chroot? [10:43] ruscur: so drop to a console and run grub-install /dev/sdb? or do I need to chroot somewhere first? [10:44] Vacuity: you don't need to chroot. you could install grub from another distro's live environment even [10:44] how can the lubuntu LTS only have 3 years support while the normal ubuntu has 5 years? Doesn't lubuntu use the exact same repository as ubuntu? [10:44] ruscur: ok, thanks. will give it a try [10:44] trijntje: you should ask the lubuntu people.. don't they have a channel of their own? [10:44] buongiorno [10:44] !lubuntu [10:44] lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [10:45] trijntje, it is their first LTS :-D [10:46] Hello everyone!

Otherwise, whats the point of an LTS if half of the programs a user installs are no longer supported [10:46] Anybody has the same issue? [10:46] No close, maximize and minimize buttons. [10:47] hi [10:47] riverloop, those buttons are on the top panel, it is called global menu [10:47] salsero|2, I haven't eaten yet, so I'll be lunching first, after that I'll return to the chroot. [10:47] I'd like the best estimate.. What happens if I run update, upgrade and dist-upgrade on 12.04 to 14.04 ? [10:48] riverloop: move your mouse to the top left corner of the screen [10:48] I once tried upgrading a Debian6 to Debian7 and was left out of X [10:48] jubo2: that will not upgrade to 14.04 [10:48] k1l: oh.. why ? [10:48] jubo2: ubuntu got own upgrade managers [10:48] ah.. [10:48] jubo2: dont do the debian way. [10:48] k1l: I'd like to try the upgrade [10:49] there is no data on the host machine [10:49] all is in cloud and other machines [10:49] jubo2: and 12.04 to 14.04 will be opened when 14.04.1 is released on 24th july [10:49] hi , when I run Vidalia , it got me this error: https://dpaste.de/1UPD how can I fix it? [10:50] k1l So I wasted 30 minutes on my upgrade. lol [10:51] k1l: So I need to install fresh 14.04, VirtualBox, Windows7 into the sandbox and Office 365, anti-virus software and SPSS [10:51] not a problem.. [10:51] jubo2: no [10:52] listen: if you want LTS (like in stable and long support) you dont want to hop on 14.04 direct after release anyway. you want it to settle first [10:52] so wait until 14.04 will become 14.04.1 [10:52] k1l: 'k.. I can do the upgrade / reinstallation later on.. [10:52] How can I manually call grub-install from the installer's console in busybox? (the installer wrongly calls grub-install /dev/sda, but that is the USB drive I install from. my target SSD is /dev/sdb ...). (ubuntu-14.04-server-amd64.iso) [10:53] how do i mount a raided device from the live cd? i need to reinstall grub [10:53] grub-install is neither in the PATH, nor can I find in the usual places [10:53] I can do my school work in the Win7/Office in virtual box.. then stash the disk image to cloud or vps, nuke the system and drop the disk image back in [10:53] jubo2: you can upgrade, but dont rant about not solid stable LTS [10:54] k1l: I am easily critical.. but I try to keep my critique constructive [10:54] k1l: big thanks for helping me with these things [10:54] I'v just installed, updated, and mostly configured Xubuntu 14.04. I've run into one issue. Even with the bluetooth module installed (and a reboot to be sure) for PulseAudio, the system sees, pairs, and connects to my headset - but there's no audio and no option for it in PulseAudio Volume Control. Am I missing something? Happy to RTFM, if pointed at TFM. [10:55] jubo2: no need for reinstall. if you really want to break the LTS you can upgrade with the developer parameter on do-release-upgrade [10:56] skype : Depends: skype-bin but it is not installable, The following packages have unmet dependencies: ? [10:58] k1l: I just have to keep fingers crossed that there are no problems in dropping the virtual disk image to VirtualBox between 12.04 and 14.04.1 [10:59] hi. very stupid question, how do i launch applications? [10:59] glen: press windows button, type name, press enter [10:59] i want to open terminal but can't find any of the four "buttons" providing me that fucntionality [11:00] nothing happens [11:00] glen: for terminal use the shortcut: ctrl+alt+t [11:00] oh. thanks [11:00] glen: what ubuntu are you on exactly? [11:00] precise32 from vagrant [11:01] seems search feature is not functioning, i.e the first button is some kind of search, but it doesn't work [11:01] and how to pin launched applications to sidebar? [11:01] please ask vagrant if they change that much in ubuntu [11:01] glen: drag it [11:02] or right click them in the launcher and pick , lock to launcher [11:02] k1l: vagrant is not "they"! vagrant is technology not provider! [11:02] hi [11:03] and how do i drag if i launched from terminal? what exactly do i drag? [11:03] glen: In that case, do what clue told you. right click and Lock to Launcher. [11:03] i am new user [11:04] Lock menu is not there for that app [11:04] http://askubuntu.com/questions/223912/i-can-not-install-skype-on-ubuntu-12-10 [11:04] no that no helps [11:04] maube 14.04 is a newer for skype [11:04] lock menu exists for some other apps, but not the one i need to pin [11:04] hi all! quick 14.04lts question; I installed it last night and went to install my fav. window manager and noticed there isnt a 'session-select' gear, or option in the login manager after the install. is there a way to bring that back? [11:04] it's the same problem === ed is now known as Guest77990 [11:04] does the pinning need the app was launched from .desktop file? [11:04] (fresh install btw; not an upgrade) [11:05] glen what program is that? [11:05] I think that installing proprietary Nvidia drivers automatically, from Software&updates is no go. It just sists there doing nothing. 14.04 LTS 32bit [11:06] I had to downlaod skype multi-arch and then launch the ubuntu software installer to get it going. It looked like the install failed (to my non-expert eyes), but it appeared in the menu and ran. [11:06] (Grnated, I am using 64bit) [11:06] cabbage4th: some python app downloaded from github [11:06] https://github.com/suurjaak/Skyperious [11:06] Are you sure the device for "mount -t tmpfs" is a ramdisk? [11:06] CriMeaRiver: tmpfs is ram. [11:07] and how to log out? [11:07] glen, apps that are not in the official repos usually don't supply an associated desktop file, but things like alacarte if it is still around will make one for you [11:07] hi all [11:07] glen, click the gear on the top right , then log out [11:08] cmecca: thanks [11:08] someone can say me the name os app store for xubuntu?

[11:46] hello everybody [11:46] <_zap_> do you know how that can be fixed? [11:46] and the GHCQ [11:47] __nick : not with proper encryptions and setups [11:47] nikolam, for me nividia drivers working fine [11:47] if i use xrandr to force a resolution will it ask me to confirm my settings and revert if i dont click keep [11:47] notyoureverydayS: you're under the impression they have to break in [11:47] <_zap_> the ppa for which the pinning works has a proper "o" attribute in the release line of the resp. entry in apt-cache policy [11:47] it's done behind closed doors [11:47] on ubuntu 14.04, i have no update notifications, if i run "sudo strace /usr/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloader" i see there a lot of files missing, have you got this problem ?

[11:49] and they have to comply [11:49] Guest72198, what is the problem [11:49] same with canonical [11:49] Guest72415, ^^ [11:50] ghcq would ask the london office for data [11:50] Incoorrect, its not a warrantbut a request [11:50] !ot | nick__ [11:50] nick__: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[11:52] shunya_chakra: yes, it's still using xorg [11:52] kostkon: there are update available (i've checked on aptitude) [11:52] Hi! [11:52] Guest: when did you download it? [11:53] hm givello thanks [11:53] the ubuntu.. [11:53] Pray pardon, is there a trick to getting audio over bluetooth on *buntu 14.04? Have installed the bluetooth module for PulseAudio & rebooted. Headset is seen by bluettoh, connects, but nothing shows in PulseAudo Volume Control. (Note: headset works with 13.10) [11:53] I have a problem with booting up with GRUB after upgrading from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 [11:53] ! [11:53] Guest72415, you only get notified every 7 days, unless there are security updates available. In that case, the updater will pop up right away [11:53] It says 'error: symbol `grub_term_highlight_color` not found' [11:54] new9as: for a slightly older laptop like that, i would suggest lubuntu or xubuntu. the main difference is in which desktop you prefer, i prefer lubuntu myself [11:54] Guest72415, thus to sum it up, 7 days for regular updates, zero days for security updates [11:55] kostkon: ok thanks, however "sudo strace /usr/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloader" notices that there are a lot of files missing [11:55] Guest72415, no idea about that [11:56] kostkon: ok thanks ;) [11:56] Guest72415, and it's probably safer to use apt-get than aptitude [11:56] it also appears from lsmod that the standard hid module is what enables the multitouch part of the touchscreen. [11:56] andyfied: thank you, lubuntu seems ok, it would be problem if I want to install software which need Qt GUI and you remote desktop ?

[11:59] tnk: do-release-upgrade [11:59] slit --wrists [11:59] bekks, says no new release found..? [11:59] Guest72415, ok then i guess [11:59] how do i set a list of commands to run at start up [12:00] dutchuss206: what part? [12:00] tnk: Then you have to wait until mirrors are synchronized. [12:00] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7275033/ [12:00] dutchuss206 So you had the same problem as I did? [12:00] you can add stuff to the init script [12:00] or your login script [12:00] bekks, how do i know when that is [12:00] i want that to run before the login screen comes up [12:00] then add to init script [12:00] bekks, also do you know how to get rid of all the systemd failed socket errors i get right now in startup of 13.10? [12:00] mine was worse my computer wouldent even turn on with 14.04 [12:00] I think ubuntu uses upstart or systemd [12:00] I dunno [12:01] But how do I get back to 13.10 if I have a dual boot ? [12:01] tnk: Not without knowing the exact errors. [12:01] init scripts run when ive logged in and are session based [12:01] !dualbot | fugutive221 [12:01] bekks, what's the log file you would need me to pastebin for you to know/see?

I can open a CLI and ping 91.189.91.14 [12:03] umesh_: if you wnat to start the x server, you must use startx [12:04] umesh_: if a gui session is already running, you'll have to specify another screen [12:04] umesh_: like so: startx -- :1 [12:04] umesh_: man startx and google is your friend :) [12:04] thx givello wil try installing xstart [12:04] umesh_: startx should already be installed [12:05] bekks, ? [12:05] givello, have installed ubuntu server only cli [12:05] umesh_: otherwise, if you have no gui whatsoever, you need to install a desktop environment like gnome or kde [12:05] umesh_: okay, you need something like gnome or kde or kfce then [12:05] umesh_: google those and make your choice, then install the adequate package [12:06] it'll install all the x server stuff by itself [12:06] umesh_: and add itself to startup and all [12:06] givello, i tried to install xstart it said install xtart n its downloading the package now [12:06] umesh_: yes, but you'll have no desktop environment [12:06] On a new hard drive, should I pick quick format OR full format on TrueCRypt ? what's the difference (besides time)? [12:06] umesh_: just a terminal with a mouse [12:06] hmm.. Looks like after having it recheck for updates, the number of available updates changed from 258 to 317 and now everything appears to be updating just fine. [12:07] givello, thx just a terminal with keyboard , mouse is not working! [12:07] dutchuss206: usually you only want to start services in init scripts [12:07] lists of commands sounds like something that should happen in a user acccount [12:07] umesh_: as I said, install a full-fleged DE [12:07] as opposed to system startup [12:08] umesh_: lxde or xfce or gnome or kde or cinammon or unity ... [12:08] so if you want to start a service, dutchuss206, then sudo update-rc.d defaults === TheBurgerKing_ is now known as TheBurgerKing [12:11] Aloha [12:11] Any guidance on bluetooth audio?

How can I speed this up? [12:15] hehe [12:15] disable any filters you don't need [12:16] umesh_: as I said, installing startx only gave you that, you need to install a package that's called something with gnome, but I don't remember the name [12:16] What's the name of the gnome metapackage on ubuntu?

[12:27] i mean i want my battery only charge for 80% is there any software for this [12:27] Neo31, and remove the ppa [12:27] Neo31, or disable it [12:28] it is commented # [12:28] ok,thanks!! [12:28] Neo31, you are right [12:28] shunya_chakra: I don't think so, that would require firmware in the battery itself. It should however be easy to send a notification once the charge goes over 80% [12:29] ok trijntje... my vaio got preinstalled software but it for window [12:30] xleb [12:30] здрасте [12:30] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7275262/ when i tried to open boot.local with gkso nothing happened [12:30] есть кто живой [12:31] !ru|yurezkie [12:31] yurezkie: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke. === Neo31_ is now known as Neo31` === Neo31` is now known as A7med === A7med is now known as Neo31 [12:32] hello again [12:33] kostkon: E: Unable to locate package ubuntu-touch-meta (same for ubuntu-sdk) [12:35] what is the easiest way to do a fresh install of 14.04 onto a new hard drive, from within a 12.04 environment?

What's the go with major version upgrades? is it better to do them from scratch? or are there upgrade paths for 13 -> 14? Are they significant enough to have compatibility issues with software etc? I've never had to upgrade a major version before... [12:42] Neo31, ok [12:42] solved kostkon [12:43] snufft: there is a new version every 6 months, the name reflects that [12:43] snufft: 13.10: october 2010 [12:43] Hey, can someone help me troubleshoot my wifi connection? I'm using 14.04, Virgin Media sent out a new Netgear router (capable of 5ghz) and now every time my computer suspends, it doesn't join the wireless network until I delete the settings for the network and add it again. [12:43] sorry, 2013 [12:43] snufft 13.10 has 9 months of support. 14.04 has 5 years. [12:43] snufft: and as cfhowlett, some are longer-support, called lts [12:43] snufft: 14.04 is one such "lts" release [12:43] solved kostkon, I have added the following to /etc/apt/sources.list : deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty universe [12:43] thank you [12:44] snufft, backup as always and then attempt the upgrade. it should go fine. 14.04 is lts (5y of support, until 2019) so it's a better choice compared to 13.10, for which support will end in july [12:44] Hey I need help I try to upgrade to 14.10 but there seems to be a problem It says upgrade finished but there where some errors: "sudo apt-get -f install" does not work as /var/cache/apt/archives/samba-libs_2%3a4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2_i386.deb crashes what can I do? [12:44] Neo31, np [12:45] givello, cfhowlett, kostkon thanks guys :) is there a speciic backup process for ubuntu? or are you referring to just backing up my documents/media/etc? === eric is now known as Guest57672 [12:45] snufft, your personal data yes [12:45] samba-libs is the only programm which needs to get installed. (but I dont need samba I installed it a while ago but I am not using it) [12:45] snufft: generally speaking you should backup your /home and /etc [12:45] snufft: so personal documents and configurations [12:46] Hi i'm have ubuntu installed ubuntu 13.10 on a ssd. If I update to 14.04, will TRIM be enabled by default or will I need to do a fresh install? [12:46] kostkon, givello thanks heaps :) [12:48] snufft: (then again I say backup, but I never do it. And I'm currently stuck in terminal mode while figuring out what fucked up while upgrading, so, well...) === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [12:48] givello: Please keep the language clean [12:48] IdleOne: my bad [12:48] Guest57672: just upgrade and if its not enabled (which you should have done on 13.10 anyway) enable it [12:49] givello, hahahaha! were you using something special as far as desktop environments go? [12:49] You have 2,223 seeders for the i326 iso, and 500 some for leechers. [12:50] snufft: gnome 3. [12:50] snufft: pretty sure it's because of my nvidia drivers though [12:51] givello, that's what's worrying me a little actually. i've never had a whole lot of luck with video drivers on 13.10 and they're semi-working now. don't really want to have to go through that again :( [12:52] snufft: I'm not in the same situation as you are though, I was updating from 12.04 [12:53] snufft: plus, if I were you, I'd rather have them working on an lts and stop worrying for a while than having to upgrade anyway in a few months [12:55] hey guys, I need to script something concerning pluggning in and out usb hard drives. Is there a way to easily determine the /dev/sd* from the hard drive that I just plugged in? [12:55] JO0st: use UUID [12:55] !UUID [12:55] To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [12:56] Hi I'm trying to see "init(5)" but when I enter "man init" it brings "init(8)" how to fix please?

[13:02] something else? [13:02] SteveBell, have fun [13:02] vjacob: revert your changes. [13:03] bekks I've no idea what caused this, haven't used this system in ages [13:03] vjacob: maybe you could do something like dpkg-reconfigure network-manager? [13:03] vjacob: just a wild guess though [13:03] hello [13:03] looks like eth0 is still being listed by ifconfig -a but not getting much action [13:04] I could but without a networking connection? [13:04] *tries* [13:04] vjacob: then check your /etc/network/interfaces [13:04] vjacob: you won't need one if the package is still there [13:04] I'm not sure it's the right one though [13:04] I have a qucik question after about servers/ [13:04] Hello [13:04] "network-manager is broken or not fully installed" [13:04] vjacob: well, sucks [13:04] Does anybody know if it would be possible to install an sqlite DB onto a USB stick? [13:04] I am trying to run tor hidden services on ubuntu [13:04] that last file has "auto eth0" in there [13:05] any idea on how to do that [13:05] ivvanahumpalot, [13:05] sucks a ton. [13:05] ivvanahumpalot: About ubuntu-server? [13:05] no desktop [13:05] I am running tor [13:05] but i want to run a hiddenservice [13:06] but the torrc looks different [13:06] it sucks almost so much that I want to reinstall...but not really. no way I can reinstall easily (due to data on the system). [13:06] vjacob: maybe man interfaces could be of some help? [13:06] wondering if there is a way I could just fetch the right .deb files and dpkg onward? [13:06] transferring over via usb [13:06] vjacob: you could [13:07] you could also fetch the tarballs as well [13:07] does anyone know why do-release-upgrade won't work w/ Trusty? [13:07] installing from source. [13:07] hey guys. i'm using 14.04 and can't connect to my wifi... any solutions? :( [13:07] vjacob: you dont need any debs. [13:07] vjacob: I assume you've tried simple stuff like ifconfig eth0 up or service netowrking restart... [13:08] rio_zenta any ideas? [13:08] vjacob: whats the content of the file mentioned above? [13:08] hey guys i'm using 14.04 and can't connect to my wifi... any solutions? :( [13:08] ivvanahumpalot: I've never used Tor before, sorry. [13:08] Ace___: Please don't double-post. [13:08] bekks, which file? networking-manager? interfaces? [13:08] givello, yup just tried [13:08] rio_zenta ok thanks :) [13:09] the first does not give an error, and the ltater just gives "networking stop/waiting" [13:09] vjacob: I mentioned "/etc/network/interfaces". [13:09] Ace asked for help, then left :-/ [13:10] bekks: again, it contains "auto eth0" and "auto lo", that is all [13:10] jellyfish! [13:10] vjacob: what do you get with "sudo mii-tool" ? [13:10] vjacob: -- if you have it [13:11] hey, [13:11] can someone help me using apt-get to install something on my mount path and not the default one? [13:11] vjacob: I'd also look at the log files when you try restarting network-manager [13:12] vjacob: it says stop/waiting, it'd be nice to know if it throws an error [13:12] Roy___: Go to your mount path folder, right-click, Open with Terminal [13:12] seyon is what program? [13:12] i'm actually using putty to connect [13:12] putty? What software is that? [13:12] http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/125376/how-to-create-virtual-network-for-vms [13:12] Help ?

[13:17] givello: no it's the same partition [13:17] bswartz: I'll probably wait until they update thatn... don't want this to fail. There's a reason I use LTS on that machine. [13:17] Fohlen: then what ubottu said [13:17] bswartz: my 12.04 is still 32 bit though ... do you think we can upgrade to 64bit at the same time? [13:17] hi [13:18] does anyone else had problems with ubuntu upgrade and python unicode handling ? [13:18] Fohlen: A fresh install would require you to "clean" the HDD of any data.however, if you have a partition, you could mount the partition, dump all home folder data into it and try reinstalling ubuntu. However, even with partitioning, it can get complicated. Best is to back the data up [13:18] maximCH: I would guess not... 32->64 bit would be an architecture change [13:18] okay [13:18] has anyone else had problems with ubuntu 14.04 using a resolution of 640x480 in virtual box?

Firefox v28.0 [13:25] trijntje: Have you tried checking in system settings? [13:25] linuxlite1969: Check to make sure you have the flash plugin installed too. FF requires a flash plugin [13:26] rio_zenta I'm 90% sure I have the plugin installed correctly, but where would I check to make sure? [13:27] linuxlite1969: "about:plugins" [13:27] linuxlite1969: Tools>Add ons> plugins [13:27] in FF itself. [13:27] In 12.04 I could use dconf-editor to edit the icons in the system tray for various applications (such as XChat) - this appears to be gone in 14.04. Is there any workaround?

[13:29] givello: Thats nice, but I does it store that setting in a config somewhere? [13:29] urras: I'd assume so. Can't help you much more though [13:30] I understand. Thank you for the help anyway [13:30] trijntje: It may be likely that ubuntu has it different to xubuntu, but you go to: Start>Settings>Settings Manager>Mouse and Touchpad.

[13:32] wait? then how would i install open office? if all of this are .rpm files lol [13:32] linuxlite1969, dont use the ones from the web, choose the ones provided in the driver tool [13:33] t4ng0: Use apt to install libreoffice [13:33] rio_zenta assumed this was a server given the text-based preferences ... [13:33] t4ng0: just install it using a .deb file, or simply install libreoffice from the software center [13:33] t4ng0: Is there a specific reason for needing openoffice? If not, just install libreoffice [13:33] t4ng0: sudo apt-get install libreoffice [13:33] t4ng0: If openoffice isn't already installed, you would use sudo apt-get, or better yet, go to the ubuntu software centre and install it.

Can I upgrade from a mounted ISO, or do I have to use either do-release-upgrade or make bootable media? [14:26] djpackrat so ask then ... [14:27] Lizards|Work use whatever method you prefer. all of those will work [14:27] So the latest kernel has issues?? [14:27] built a box about a few years back for my old man, (cant remember specifics about hardware) but it was as t op of the line as i could buy for an AMD box, and 10.10 was still out yeah? Well, he says in the last week, that his internet has been acting weird. Like he can browse to a few websites then it just stops responding. Network signal is strong 80-100% wifi strength [14:27] so hypothetically if i mounted the 14.04-desktop ISO, how would i go about upgrading? [14:27] looks like I'll be dropping back to 12.04 [14:28] he reboots, and it's fine [14:28] then a minute or two passes [14:28] and poof. gone again. [14:28] bad cap on the wifi adapter?

[14:28] lol [14:28] djpackrat. please don't use Enter as punctuation, try to keep it tidy on one line [14:28] pegamoose: why not [14:28] could be media saturation if he's in a populated area [14:29] I just wanted to make sure I wasn't thinking stupid or something. [14:29] intermittent issues are a beast [14:29] Meris: Sorry, On a web client, Wasn't thinking. [14:29] djpackrat: make sure to watch the logs while this occurs, could be a clear answer in them [14:29] guys [14:29] dw1 that I don;t know [14:29] djpackrat: restart router? sometimes mine breaks [14:29] Why i can't upgrade fro 12.04 if i select do-release-upgrade, i get no update available?! [14:29] Does anyone have an idea what could be the cause of the not-able-to-shutdown issue with my ubuntu 14.4 ? [14:29] WHY did you make the menu disappear in ubuntu 14.04 [14:29] djpackrat, can you switch to 5GHz instead? That band is not so crowded yet [14:29] I've installed Xubuntu 14.04 on my laptop (HP Compaq nx 8220), but i can't make the hardware switch for the wireless card to work.

[14:30] then chroot [14:30] nelas: you must do-release-upgrade -d if you want 14.04 now [14:30] pegamoose: i would google the model and/or any log msgs + ubuntu [14:31] nelas: that is what I'm doing [14:31] apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64 [14:31] nouveau have issues on 14.04 32bit. Sometimes it boots to X and sometimes don't (geforce fx5200 mobile) [14:31] Meris then apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64 [14:31] I was so liking Ubuntu 14.04LTS till now [14:31] salsero|2, no errors, but no messages either, so I guess that the module must be loaded then, using lsmod to see if that is indeed correct [14:31] need help with ekiga anyone familiar? [14:31] Lozard|work why is the policy to wait till .1 ? [14:31] nelas: to ensure stability [14:32] idk, all the bugs are worked out by first revision is my guess [14:32] salsero|2, nope, efivars is not loaded [14:32] Dave-Maydew: there may be a fix around, google some of the log msgs + ubuntu and see what comes up [14:32] Lizards|wors it means that i would have to wait 2-3 months more? [14:32] I've installed Xubuntu 14.04 on my laptop (HP Compaq nx 8220), but i can't make the hardware switch for the wireless card to work.

Besides avconv being unstable with recording screencasts. [14:32] s/all/all the easy/ [14:32] Meris: then you didnt boot under efi more [14:32] Dave-Maydew: the query i used was: ubuntu rejecting i/o to offline device [14:32] and not able to read external hard drives [14:32] nelas: no, you can get it now if you really want [14:32] Meris: nevertheless I am going to tell you the rest: efibootmgr -c --disk /dev/sda [14:33] Meris: and that should be it: efibootmgr -v [14:33] nikolam, That's whatcha get for not using Intel with Linux :P I learned that lesson years ago. [14:33] Dave-Maydew: you can paste your logs on http://pastebin.com so people can view them [14:33] hi. I also asked this on #ubuntu-nl , but they couldn't find out the exact problem, except that they suspected it was related to acpi. I have a fresh Ubuntu 14.4 install on an PB EasyNote MV46-015. When I try to shut it down, it freezes at some point during shutdown. Rebooting works OK. Changing the boot sequence with acpi=off results in crashing during the boot. [14:33] nelas, probably. you could force it with `do-release-upgrade -d` though [14:33] salsero|2, when I checked the BIOS settings just before booting into the LiveUSB it was properly set to EFI, any thoughts on that? [14:33] whiskers75, i will wait till 14.04, dont want to make my main PC unstable [14:33] I'm going to take the easy, but long route and stick to 12.04 [14:33] nelas: FYI, I'm doing it right now on this Lenovo G570 [14:33] till "The BUG" has been ironed out [14:34] Lizards|work, i know about -d switch, but i dont want to use the devel options [14:34] nelas, 14.04 was released yesterday.

[14:37] Meris: [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo "EFI boot on HDD" || echo "Legacy boot on HDD" [14:38] nelas: if you want LTS you want 14.04 to settle first.

In the settings tab "Notify me of a new Ubuntu version" is set to "For long-term support versions". [14:41] my upgrade wasnt very smooth [14:41] penthief: no [14:41] penthief, not til late july at 14.04.1 [14:41] Hello, I need some help. I need to repartion my dads computer so there's more space on linux-ubuntu side than on the windows side. Whats the best way to do this? Gpart'd or reinstall/update ubuntu? [14:41] I tried to reinstall ubuntu-desktop from terminal after reboot [14:41] My upgrade went smooth, just the lack of mounting [14:41] penthief: you will only get the option when 14.04.1 is released. to update early, open a terminal and run 'sudo update-manager -d' [14:41] it did not work [14:42] nikolam, From my understanding ATI supports Linux pretty well with their closed drivers but most distro devs don't put a lot of effort into making installation of them an easy process. Ubuntu makes it the easiest to manually install, it's just a 3 step process. Extract, chmod+x, sh install [14:42] AnAlien: resize udner windows [14:42] salsero|2, ok, thanks. Not actually on it, just updating info around the world. [14:42] my music library is on an external HDD [14:42] Thanks [14:42] so how do i go about getting flash player to work fully for every thing i wanna use it for [14:42] Dave-Maydew: this may be a solution https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/868233/comments/7 [14:42] can I disable that software centre automatically adds new packages to the launcher?

[14:42] zcheng3: sudo apt-get install -f [14:42] Luyin, yes, there is such an option in its menu [14:42] lol tht sounds like a aininthe ass to do [14:42] tried that too [14:42] lord 14.04 is absolute fail with the system tray indicators [14:43] Dave-Maydew, I've never had an issue with external hard drives, always worked for me. Maybe you've got a faulty install? Try from the live session and see if it's successful. [14:43] dutchuss2016, that's what you get with closed source [14:43] oh nvr mnd, thx guys, i think i know what i need to do. [14:43] i installed it from the software centere like the guide sayys to do im on ubuntu 64 bit [14:44] CountryfiedLinux, it is job of developers who make closed drivers to make it pleasant for consumer to install. AMD have much shorter timeframe for support of graphics hardware with closed drivers, compared to Nvidia. AMD have better open driver on other hand. [14:44] yeah, so am i dutchuss2016 ... i only got it to work by manually putting the binaries in place [14:44] since ubuntu-desktop is broken, I cannot log into the system with it. But I can still login using i3, or xfce [14:44] fail [14:44] ok Im back sorry about that, I forgot about the time.

[14:45] nikolam, Well it's a much easier process in Ubuntu than in Debian. I did it in Debian which tool FOR EVER and rebooted to a BSOD (black screen of death) with a blinking underscore in the upper left. [14:45] Luyin, View -> New applications in launcher? [14:46] what should I do next with the broken ubuntu-desktop? [14:46] CountryfiedLinux, I think it is all developers of closed drivers fault. they should do it better.

Just use do-release-upgrade [14:55] Dave-Maydew, awesome man [14:55] :) [14:55] maaan that's way less awesome than using the ISO from a mounted loop device [14:56] * psusi is disappointed that you can't do that any more either [14:56] I have a fresh Ubuntu 14.4 install on an PB EasyNote MV46-015.

The thing is when its run from .profile it will tell me the user doesnt have /dev/port open. I cannot get the script to run in .bashrc.... any help would be appreciated [15:17] also, how to use the new start menu on xubuntu 14.04?

[16:34] modprobe -r yes [16:34] salsero|2: I didn't use -r [16:34] what does that do ?

[17:00] move the old /home out of the way and mount the old /home to it's right plave I think [17:00] salsero|2, and that's it then? [17:00] melow01, use this it should be fine https://launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-snapshots [17:00] ben_g: actually you can get to root with Ctrl-Alt-F1 from login screen and Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back [17:00] ben_g: sorry wrong person [17:00] zcheng3_: ^^^ [17:00] Jordan_U: The second command asks me if some command line from menu.lst is correct.

[17:03] lapion: no, but I were you I wouldnt use btrfs [17:03] kostkon, ok will do [17:04] lapion: What problem are you having? Did you make a snapshot before upgrading? [17:04] Jordan_U: Okay, I selected /dev/sda and /dev/sdb but not /dev/sdb1, right? [17:04] zcheng3_: what did you do before it broke [17:04] melow01, do you really need both the cli and gui versions of it [17:04] Diomedes_: Correct. [17:04] If I download the skype debian package from the Skype website and install it using "sudo dpkg -i". How will I know whether the linux system knows that it has installed it? [17:04] dpkg --get-selections | grep skype [17:04] guess not [17:04] Diomedes_: Now your computer should boot properly from either drive. You can reboot now. [17:05] previously maybe i installed some other desktop environment, like xfce or something else. And I could not login using unity, but i could still log in using i3 [17:05] Jordan_U: Okay, thank you, I will reboot and report if everything is fine. :-) [17:05] than I searched online, people suggest to remove .Xauthoirty [17:05] i did [17:05] 'xinput list' says the synaptics touchpad is there and is fine [17:05] Diomedes_: You're welcome :) [17:05] kostkon, good point [17:05] and i cannot login anymore using that account [17:05] when the support of 12.04 will end ?

[17:06] yes I can login using that mode [17:06] ice9: 0600 [17:07] I should have rename .Xauthority instead of removing it [17:07] zcheng3_: how is your disk space, near full? df -h [17:07] kostkon, so handbrake-snapshots gave me a warning that those releases are unstable and recommended for developers, how do I get the last stable release instead? [17:08] kostkon, also, I tried it anyway and I still get the same error [17:08] llutz: it's like that but I get unsafe ownership on configuration file [17:08] melow01, it's fine. you can't, because the main ppa doesn't offer pacakges for saucy and trusty [17:08] ice9: and what is the ownership? [17:08] It didn't work [17:08] kostkon, I can't grab the one for Raring?

[17:27] When I upgraded to 14.04, the touchpad stops working a few minutes after i boot up. You know what to do? [17:27] No [17:28] a few people [17:28] When I connect an usb mouse, it works.

[17:28] idodeisuke, what type of touchpad? Is it a synaptic? [17:29] pmelendez, yes.

[17:30] Hmm [17:30] It does show "Failed to write bytes: broken pipe" at the top of the screen. Does that count as an error? [17:30] Ben, try typing "dmesg | less" and check for errors related to graphics card [17:30] dw1: No..

I'm not aware I connect the notebook which is also 14:04. [17:39] aliensbrah: I just installed it without connection. [17:39] hi [17:39] gbear14275: grub's boot sector always goes in the MBR (so choose the disk). [17:39] wfsdf: Hi! [17:39] why I can't mounting another partition? [17:39] someHuman, Ubuntu finishes booting correct, it's just low res? [17:39] thanks Jordan_U [17:39] aliensbrah: Exactly!

[17:48] I don't suppose there is a way to have my 4x4 virtual desktops/viewports convert to 2x2 whenever I plug in a second monitor, instead of having ubuntu jumble all my windows around. [17:48] http://askubuntu.com/questions/355515/could-not-write-bytes-broken-pipe-12-04 Seems to be a driver issue. In another post it said reinstalling 'ubuntu-desktop' solved the problem. [17:48] erm, 4x2* [17:48] my internet connection is 2mb [17:48] hi [17:48] I've installed Xubuntu 14.04 on my laptop, but when i run applications, they won't appear in the taskbar, although they are running. [17:48] Programmer_: Do you have any idea why /boot/ and many other directories are aufs mounts? [17:48] no [17:48] dont know what that even means [17:49] Programmer_: What command did you use to try to upgrade? [17:49] could be when i was trying to upgrade grub [17:49] thank you dw1 [17:49] do-release-upgrade [17:49] it works [17:49] zcheng3_: wow [17:49] !info wine trusty [17:49] wine (source: wine1.6): Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (meta-package). In component universe, is extra.

[17:50] the odd thing is that previously even I had that file, I still could not login [17:50] !isitout [17:50] Yes, it's out! Download at http://www.ubuntu.com/download | Release announcement at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2014-April/000182.html [17:50] zcheng3_: yeah and should just be regenerated normally i think [17:50] so chromium is going to be broken indefinitely? [17:50] i should have saved that file and compare it with the newly generated one [17:51] Hi, after upgrade Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04, if I install nvidia proprietary drivers (331 for my Geforce gt 640) system can't start properly. Is there any fix for this? [17:51] javier_: thanks, I'll try that [17:51] brb [17:51] I installed using "software updater" window [17:51] does 14.04 use systemd? [17:51] kenshiro: by any chance was your computer overheating due to the graphics card?? [17:51] Programmer_: Are you sure that you didn't add "-s" or "--sandbox" to the do-release-upgrade command? [17:51] i did [17:51] before i actually did it [17:51] django No, I have thermal monitor and all temperatures are ok [17:52] kenshiro: damn b/c on my laptop it gets hotter since both my integrated and nvidia graphics cards are running [17:52] django I have a desktop computer with only one nvidia card. I have to stick to nouveau driver or system can't start [17:52] Programmer_: You need to reboot between sandbox upgrading and actual upgrading (and sandbox upgrading is broken and will always fail). [17:52] Jordan_U, so what now? [17:53] Programmer_: Reboot then upgrade normally, no --sandbox. [17:53] Jordan_U, but it already upgraded a lot of stuff. without using sandbox [17:54] are you sure ill be able to boot up? [17:54] Jordan_U, after i did "do-release-upgrade -s" i then did "do-release-upgrade" [17:54] Programmer_: You never left "sandbox mode". Nothing has actually been upgraded. [17:54] Hello everyone, can someone tell me how to use boot-repair on 14.04? [17:55] the ppa only has packages upto 13.10 [17:55] dammit. that is a day ill never get back [17:55] hi!

[17:57] Programmer_: yea ...... [17:57] ok ill try it [17:57] im scared [17:58] my reinstall is looking promising [17:58] good, some positivity [17:59] onefix_work: it wont work without -d argument for development mode as i understand.. and if you want stability, should wait [17:59] bye [18:00] german please [18:00] !de | miggeli [18:00] miggeli: In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen.

[18:04] Guys, how do I change my music's properties on Ubuntu? [18:04] Jordan_U: I'm stuck at the kubuntu boot screen [18:05] something changed from 12.04 to 14.04 that I am now getting "error writing permission" on my NAS. It still writes the file but just can't set it's permissions. which I don't care if it can or can't set the permissions of the file [18:05] javier: it didn't work [18:05] allstarsnorks2: define music's properties [18:05] The first few times I booted, it even freezed before I could logg in. [18:06] Samehere [18:06] And when I finally managed to logg in, it still froze while starting the x server [18:06] does anyone have trusty working on dual monitor? [18:06] yes i do with nvidia [18:06] Hi, which is better, Ubuntu or Kubuntu? For modern PC. thanks [18:07] coke or pepsi? :) [18:07] i will say go with the real think [18:07] !poll | tyrog [18:07] finally got it booted [18:07] umm can i get some help .. my menu bar is missing [18:07] tyrog: It's really just opinion I believe. Unity is a modern UI in my opinion that would work well on a newer PC. KDE is as well, so I would say just boot the LiveCD of each and try it out and see what you think. [18:07] hi [18:08] yeats: what? [18:08] glumetu: this one? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1315949 [18:08] by music properties, I meant the artist, the album art, the name and the track.

Was this an upgrade or a fresh install? [18:09] allstarsnorks2_: you can use any tag editor from the software center I guess [18:10] in my case was the distro update [18:10] -where can i [18:10] allstarsnorks2_: It's hard to understand what you are asking. i thnk you want to change the metadata (ID3 tags) for mp3 and such like. You want an ID3 editor or tag editor. there are plenty in the ubuntu software centere [18:10] AStorm: What's going on with wine? Are you installing it from the repos/package manager? [18:10] It was already over a week old, but then it was indeed a fresh install === digilord is now known as digilord-away [18:10] Gerowen, yes, main repo [18:10] allstarsnorks2_: I missed your original question, but picard is nice for organizing music metadata [18:10] xubuntu 14.04 amd64, fresh live [18:10] Guys, what would you say is the best distro for gaming (not steam OS) [18:10] AStorm: What is it doing, or not doing?

[18:13] i can-t believe they-ve fucked up xubuntu 14.04 [18:13] albi: what specificalyl are you having trouble with? [18:13] no, says wine1.6 will not be installed [18:13] nothing [18:13] just trying to drop windows as much as possible [18:13] AStorm: Also try a "sudo apt-get autoremove", it is normally used to remove packages that were installed as dependencies and are no longer needed, and might fix this issue.

I've thought about turning it off because usually when I search Amazon I actually go to their site in my browser, but for now it is working and I've used it a time or two. [18:16] maybe it having the "cdrom" repos breaks things? [18:16] I mean, sources.list [18:17] AStorm: Maybe, but I wouldn't think so because I've installed packages on live systems before.

I'm having problems with the feature of opening applications with the middle mouse button. Unity seems to never know when an application has closed, so after I closer (and I have confirmed it was closed) I can't reopen it with a left click. Only the middle mouse works. Any ideas?

I installed package gnome-shell and tried to login via gdm but gnome shell is not listed there and unity does not start properly from gdm !!! [18:52] which one uses less data or requires less data imap or pop3 [18:52] is gnome3 supported on trusty? === megabitdragon is now known as Amahi|Megabit [18:53] ghostnik11, both are different, one pulls mail fom the server, other pulls copy from server. [18:54] OerHeks, yeah but i have to pay for data via my phone which only has access to email, so i want to know which one needs less data [18:54] OerHeks, i know imap is better but does it require more data to use it than pop3 [18:54] noooob, try ubuntu-gnome-desktop for gnome3 desktop [18:55] hello all [18:55] helllo [18:55] hi [18:55] aliensbrah: Dude! [18:55] trtrtr: HIHI! [18:55] ghostnik11, dunno if one uses more data ( few bytes) to recieve, try it? [18:56] aliensbrah: I did it! Thanks man! Mwah! Hahaha! [18:56] I'm in 14.04 bitches! [18:56] OerHeks: thanks i will try that [18:56] anyone know what the launcher is called in 14.04? I'm trying to file a bug for it, but I don't know its name. [18:56] aliensbrah: See you around! ;) [18:57] how to setup a cron job that runs every hour? [18:57] Is the 13.10 > 14.04 upgrade process reliable? I don't want take the plunge if there's significant risk to my workstation. [18:57] fisch246, that sidepanel is called unity [18:57] ghostnik11: POP is for downloading messages only. IMAP on the other hand lets your client browse headers and only download what you want. The actualy bandwith used depends on what you choose to download. [18:57] fisch246: it is called the launcher :) === sayan is now known as fedora|sayan [18:57] Well I mean as a package. [18:58] fisch246: but the bug would be filed against the unity package [18:58] would I just use ubuntu-bug unity? [18:58] ubuntu-bug unity [18:58] mmk [18:58] hey, trying to get an unprivileged clone with CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWNS in 14.04, but the NEWNS still seems to require cap_sys_admin. i'm hearing some rumors that there's something in /proc/sys/kernel to allow it, but can't find any files that seem likely. is that a thing? if not, is there another way to get unprivilieged NEWNS clones? [18:58] retentiveboy, the internet speed i have here is edge speeds for my phone, since imap downloads a full message, wouldn't pop3 be better and faster and less data intensive [18:58] thanks :) [18:58] fisch246, check your xsession-errors file for any errors related to that e.g. gedit ~/.xsession-errors [18:59] fisch246, you could also try resetting unity/compiz [18:59] ghostnik11: depends on how you use it. If you plan on downloading everything, stick with POP. If you plan to interact and choose what to download, you'll need to use IMAP. Sorry but we can be more definitive. Depends. [18:59] hi hi [18:59] It's not a graphical problem. I've also restarted many times. The problem is that I can't reopen any program. I just ran into a post of someone having the same problem. [18:59] hi eerytone [19:00] (i suppose i should mention that CLONE_NEWNS does work as root, etc) [19:00] fisch246, http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/how-to-reset-compiz-and-unity-in-ubuntu.html or perhaps reinstalling bamfdaemon. [19:00] hi there .. . could somebody help me with setting up a emu sound card 1616m with alsa on xubuntu 14.04 would be realy great :) [19:00] hi all -- is it possible with update manager to upgrade directly from precise to trusty? [19:00] hello all! [19:00] retentiveboy, i don't want to download everything i just need to find out which is faster and less data intensive as data adds up [19:01] ... and would one want to use a loop mounted ISO for the purpose? [19:01] fisch246, and obviously do a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade just to be sure [19:01] I am interested in installing Mate Desktop on top of ubuntu server, but i cannot get it to boot to the desktop like i can with 13.10 [19:01] OerHeks: thanks that seems to work [19:02] Would ubuntu 14.04 server support installing gnome-flashback? [19:02] noooob_, have fun [19:02] ghostnik11: we can't be as definitive as you seem to be looking for. testing it yourself is the only way to know for sure. Both POP and IMAP download a "full message". [19:02] exit [19:03] Imap just lets you choose which messages but you'd download the headers to know which message is available first so more bandwidth in total if you end up downloading all the messages [19:03] ATA-8-ACS revision 3b means it's SATA III? Alternatively how do I find out which HDD/SSD I can buy? [19:03] I would like to ask a question.I have ubuntu 13 and says i have lots of updates.Can i bypass all the updates and go to 14 update [19:04] james13, i'm afraid the answer is.. no [19:04] does ubuntu 14.04 repos include aircrack, reaver, metasploit, ettercap, etc?

[19:05] ok thanks [19:06] hi all -- is it possible with update manager to upgrade directly from precise to trusty? and would one want to use a loop mounted ISO for the purpose? [19:06] adminewb, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/04/upgrade-ubuntu-14-04-12-04 [19:07] thanks kostkon [19:08] sad bump: ATA-8-ACS revision 3b means it's SATA III? Alternatively how do I find out which HDD/SSD I can buy? [19:10] ruzicka, most likely google has the answer or join #hardware [19:10] OerHeks: tried google, didn't find anything helpful [19:11] I'll try ##hardware [19:11] Beldar, http://askubuntu.com/questions/440169/my-ubuntu-14-04-window-controls-dont-changes-after-setting-in-dconf-editor [19:11] you know workaround?

[19:12] yes ofc, did not work [19:13] Will I be notified to upgrade to the latest LTS if I have an LTS version [19:13] ncp, logout and login again? [19:13] Name141: not until july when the first point release is released [19:13] OerHeks, yes ofc :) [19:13] ncp, Cool, helps to have all that info, ubuntu tweak has a left to right click. [19:14] Beldar, yes iknow, but nothing happens with ubuntu-tweak either [19:14] ncp, Ah, not sure than I use the gnome shell, it's on the right there already. [19:15] fisch246: So technically there isn't anything wrong with 12.04 .. yet ? [19:15] Or some screaming "hey upgrade me now" flaw? [19:15] fisch246: yeah there were several other people complaining about that bug during testing, all using nvidia proprietary: bug 1303325 [19:15] bug 1303325 in unity (Ubuntu) "clicking on its launcher icon doesn't open it (occured after closing app before)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1303325 === Amahi|Megabit is now known as megabitdragon === phenton is now known as nessie === nessie is now known as therealnessie [19:16] but only need to know if it's possible to do in ubuntu 14.04 (unity) so i don't waste my time with the impossible :) === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [19:16] has anyone moved close,maximize.. to right corner with unity tweak, or dconf-editor? [19:17] and can confirm it work ofc :) [19:18] anyone has upgraded to 12.04.4 to 14.04? [19:19] silverf0x, most likely we are, ask your real question please? [19:19] silverf0x, It is not suggested, lts to lts is actually available in july. [19:20] hmm [19:20] but it's alreasy available [19:20] oh 12.04 -14.04 [19:21] Beldar: so right now we'd have to do a new install ? [19:21] silverf0x, In the terminal yes, ease does not mean you should, nor guarantees the correct path grasshopper. [19:21] Directly to 14.04 [19:21] trism: thanks for the bug reference. I looked for duplicates, but couldn't find any. I'll post that it might be a duplicate to that bug. [19:21] my 14.04 running in virtualbox seems to be using the gallium/llvmpipe graphics driver. how to change it to something better? [19:21] Name141, You can do what you want, lts to lts has always run this way. [19:22] Beldar: Observing that as a ys. [19:22] yes too [19:22] Name141, Reading a confirmation bias is faulty. [19:24] How can I tell if I'm on the beta build of 14.04 or the final version? I tried updating but I'm not sure if it worked. [19:24] hello community.

[19:27] !info cinnamon [19:27] Package cinnamon does not exist in trusty [19:28] sig357, cinnamon has been in the repos, not sure why it appears to not be now. [19:29] Beldar: I was thinking the same thing. 2.2 was released recently is my only guess [19:29] after updating perl 5.14.2 to 5.18.2 my C application cannot get return values from perl scripts anymore. is it a known break? [19:29] It's not on gwendal-lebihan-dev ppa either [19:30] after upgrading all i have in System Settings is 'language support, security, printers, landscape service and software updates, how do i get my other icons back please? [19:31] sig357, My guess is it will be , the 13.10 release had messed a bit with cinnamon and it took a little while to fix it, so maybe the developers are just being safe here, just a guess. === therealnessie is now known as the_google [19:32] Beldar: thanks for the info.

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 fresh install on server deployment (OVH datacenter) and am trying to install some packages but have an error, need help please. thanks :) https://gist.github.com/anonymous/e44b87e6743708cbe419 [19:45] which is the actual cause of Ubuntu not seeing windows [19:45] I use nginx [19:45] damn [19:45] I gotta learn it [19:45] hehe [19:45] Zylinx: grub's been able to cope with efi for a while now, but a very knowledgable friend just tried to do the install on a powerbook and it made a mess of the efi partition. [19:46] everyone's usin nginx now [19:46] d1rkp1tt: 14.04 is a little slow in virtualbox now too.......but I'm sure the next version of VM Tools will be more "fine tuned" for 14.04 [19:46] Zylinx: You can do BIOS emulation on some EFI systems, but I think that breaks W8. [19:46] Nginx seems simpler and has less moving parts...which I like. [19:46] i installed indicator-applet-complete but i don't see it on the top panel [19:46] what should i do ? [19:46] Is the 13.10>14.04 upgrade process recommended? Last time I wanted to upgrade vs reinstall was back in the 200X's [19:46] Zylinx: The forums probably have more discussion of work-arounds. [19:46] restart the panel ? [19:47] At which point it wasn't recommended [19:47] or logout and log back in. [19:47] jhutchins, yes the CMS or whatever compatibility mode will only work if all OS's boot from a MBR [19:47] the_google: how should i run the applet ? [19:47] Does 14.04 still use lightdm and if so, where has /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm-set-defaults moved to? [19:48] Cheekio: every system is different, if you haven't hacked a ton of stuff, shouldn't be an issue to upgrade [19:48] Great [19:48] how to change color of icon selected [19:48] ¿? [19:48] It's a month old install [19:49] can a live usb made with dd save documents between reboots? [19:49] I've edited some /etc/ files, but for the most part I should be good to go. [19:49] Zylinx: Why is your dad installing Ubuntu 12.04 instead of 14.04? [19:49] @Night-hacks, try to right click on the panel and add it if necessary [19:49] It should be in the list. [19:49] Cheekio: you're good to go then :P [19:49] [if the install was successful] [19:50] mikeche1en: No, you need to add another casper-rw partition for that, which just dding the image won't get you. [19:50] Is there a irc channel for the unity team? [19:50] how to change color of icon selected? [19:50] how to change color of icon selected? [19:51] hydruid, Just going through logs.. nothing obvious. Got one error in auth.log which is a reported bug [19:51] how to change color of icon selected? [19:51] crap. they removed it with no alternative but to edit config files. That sucks for automation. [19:51] * genio breaks things [19:51] !details > Ovetum [19:51] Ovetum, please see my private message [19:51] Jordan_U: ok thanks, ill try to get startup creator working [19:52] Jordan_U, because when he read that 14.04 was for tablets he went to have a really big drink [19:52] anyone know any good forex software for ubuntu [19:52] I want to change the color of the icon selected [19:52] how to do it? [19:53] django, I know of jstock but it just lets you keep track of stock prices [19:53] where are the header files for the kernel? === thomas is now known as Guest85076 [19:54] /usr/src/linux-headers-whatever [19:54] Ovetum: you will have to modify the theme === brad_ is now known as Guest81759 [19:54] then apparently I'm running a newer kernel than my uname says i am [19:55] how to do to modify my theme? hydruid [19:55] * fergal32 waves hello [19:55] my headers are for 3.13, but my uname says 3.11 [19:55] no wonder I'm running into issues :/ [19:56] does anybody know why in ubuntu 14.04 in this sound indicator thinggie programs like vlc, rhythmbox etc are not closeable anymore? [19:56] Sorry, but this is the first time I've signed on. Does anyone know how I can add a resolution and make that change permanent? [19:56] once they are started they stay there [19:57] fergal32: I'm pretty sure that's considered a convenience feature [19:58] Guest85076: by resolution, you mean screen resolution, yes? [19:58] fergal32: Some of those programs have a persistent mode. Most can be closed with Ctrl-Q, or by right-clicking on the minimized icon (assuming they iconize when you try to close them with Alt-F10). [19:58] Yes that's right [19:58] um... so apparently my kernel headers aren't available... [19:58] Ovetum: have you tried this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/63126/how-do-i-change-the-selected-items-color [19:58] hydruid, You might be right about vmware.. Xorg.0.log shows a few errors [19:58] Hello. I made the mistake of installing ubuntu-touch on my tablet, and now my tablet no longer boots (a quick search reveals that it's starting a light VM called LXC, which fails to load Android?!) [19:58] beginning to regret my upgrade... [19:58] fergal32: Check the drop-down menu for how to quit, it should include the shortcut. [19:58] how I want to change the color of the icon selected? [19:58] d1rkp1tt: ;) [19:58] Guest85076: what video card? [19:58] I am unfamiliar with upstart, so how do I disable that LXC thing? [19:58] AMD HD 7770 [19:59] alright so how to upgrade my kernel to the one it SHOULD be at [19:59] I tried the proprietary drivers but they cap at 1600x1200 [19:59] Guest85076: have you installed the driver for it? [19:59] oh [19:59] I've had 1920x1080 before [19:59] I'm sort of hoping for it again. [19:59] Guest85076: "before" on ubuntu? [20:00] On Windows 7 [20:00] joshad, Touch has a channel, is this an issue with it? [20:00] In particular, how do I find out what services are there in upstart? In Debian, I list /etc/init.d, but in Ubuntu I am lost. How do I get the names of the services I can disable? [20:00] How do I now disallow guest login and require username AND password for user login? [20:00] yeats: hm damn [20:00] Everything I read online talks about editing config files that do not exist [20:00] any idea on how to get *all* my system settings icons package, like a package install or something? [20:01] s/package/back [20:01] Beldar: Well, yes and no, I intended to test it, not use it. Now I want to disable it (so I don't have to uninstall it completely before testing) [20:01] joshad, However you want to word it, there is no touch support here. [20:01] jhutchins: i'm not talking about closing programms it's about programs for watching vlc they just minimize and stay there [20:02] * genio wonders if there's a lightDM channel instead [20:02] Guest85076: I think the commenter on this post is probably correct: http://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/1929jz/any_one_using_a_amd_radeon_hd_7770/c8kcue4 [20:02] Alright so apparently I'm still running the Ubuntu 13.10 kernel on 14.04 -__- [20:02] anyone played with 14.04 and xen 4.4 yet? [20:02] Beldar: So if my system is broken after apt-get install from official challens, I don't get support here? [20:02] s/challens/channels/ [20:02] in the last versions you could just close them and they were closed in volume.sound-indicator [20:02] gbear14275, yes [20:02] joshad: we can help you, but we're volunteers not employees ;) [20:02] joshad: what is wrong? [20:03] joshad, This is ubuntu support, touch has it's own channel, it is not an issue of the repo access. [20:03] Beldar: Well, it's an issue with upstart :) [20:03] So is there nothing I can do? [20:03] joshad, In touch right? [20:03] Guest85076: I had a dual head setup using ATI 6850's you have to install fglrx and xrandr and do a lot of xorg editing. [20:03] Beldar: No, in Ubuntu [20:03] alright so dist-upgrade apparently can't figure out that I'm running the wrong kernel... [20:04] Beldar: I don't think `aptitude install ubuntu-touch' replaces upstart :) [20:04] fisch246: what kernel? and is / really full [20:04] I tried that I'm afraid. I got 1920x1080 with the standard driver, but it wouldn't save even after editing Xorg.conf [20:04] did they REMOVE system settings icons?? this is after an upgrade to Trusty. [20:04] hydruid: I'm running 3.11, instead of 3.13 [20:04] joshad: what is your issue? I don't mind helping but it seems you are more interested in debating [20:04] Can anyone tell me how to change LightDM to _not_ allow guest login and to require both username and password to be typed in? All of the documentation I see is for older versions that no longer seem relevant [20:04] joshad, whatever you are in your own world. [20:04] And fglrx won't allow me to add the mode to my options [20:04] fisch246: check that /boot is not full too (if you're using LVM, it will be on like a 90MB partition by default) [20:04] thanks [20:04] Guest85076: here is an example of my xorg http://pastebin.com/e9h7V7YB [20:05] Ovetum: most welcome [20:05] TerranceWarrior: I have all mine...how many do you have [20:05] oh that is the broken one. after I installed nvidia one sec [20:05] yeats: They're on the same partition, and I have plenty of space [20:05] My headers updated, but my kernel did not [20:05] hydruid: Well, I wish to disable a service. I don't know how's it called (guesses are `lxc' or `lxc-android'), and I wish to know the directory where I can look for upstart services [20:06] But I can't change the mode anyway with the proprietary driver [20:06] hydruid: 5 [20:06] joshad: disable a service on Ubuntu? [20:06] TerranceWarrior: that's not good lol [20:06] hydruid: Yes [20:06] fisch246: what does 'dpkg -l | grep linux-image' show? [20:06] And with the X.org driver even Assault Cube dips below 30fps [20:07] hydruid: i know. [20:07] yeah that sucks. I remember it being a pain to setup. Now I am having more of an issue after installing the nvidia you can't use them together. [20:07] hydruid: what package is it? [20:07] yeah 30fps isn't much for a 7770 [20:07] looks like upstart jobs reside in /etc/init [20:07] joshad: do a search through /etc/rcX.d/ where X can be from 0-6 [20:07] Zylinx: 14.04 is no less for Desktops than 12.04, and likely has better UEFI support (along with newer software, and support for a longer period from now). [20:07] joshad: you could also just move the /etc/init.d/ script to somewhere else [20:07] look in there if possible for something that looks like LXC and rename the script to something else. [20:08] joshad: of course it's hard to say, since every package handles that differently, but those are the basic ways to do it [20:08] Still thanks for sending it dioioib === marlinc is now known as Marlinc [20:08] yeats: http://pastebin.com/9nL5YYU1 === Marlinc is now known as Simex === Simex is now known as Simex1995 === Simex1995 is now known as Marlinc [20:08] TerranceWarrior: how about I pastebin my dpkg --list and you do the same and then you can do a diff [20:08] Guest85076: just ingnor the nvidia stuff it should say xrandr and there was a line in there for xinearama or something if I was at home I would review my install notes for you. [20:09] fisch246: rc linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic - so it was installed, but removed [20:09] hydruid: no thanks. i got it. [20:09] TerranceWarrior: what package was it? [20:09] lol okay [20:09] fisch246: you could just try 'sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic' and call the issue done [20:10] where can i find open java runtime 32 bit === freanux is now known as root [20:10] Thanks :). Is there anyway get the proprietary driver to increase the maximum resolution? [20:10] yeats: running it now [20:10] hydruid, Just reinstalled vmware tools in case it was really... old. rebooted. 35 seconds from login screen to have sidebar loaded. === root is now known as Guest75341 [20:11] yeats: uname -r still says 3.11 === Guest75341 is now known as freanux [20:11] hydruid: OK, thanks very much, so it's in the usual place. (It seems that something else is starting it though, I guess I'll have to look in the package itself) [20:11] d1rkp1tt: and how long ago were the VMware tools updated by VMware? [20:11] joshad: what package is it [20:11] yeats: oh right... I assume I have to restart [20:11] fisch246: right [20:11] Guest85076: not to sure. the driver support is really lagy. I think I ended up using version 9.4 or something old just to get it to work. [20:11] mmk brb [20:12] d1rkp1tt, I was reading up on xen4.4 and thought I read that the toolchain to use was not the one in the ubuntu xen documentation, but I lost the page and am new to Xen. Any advice on guides to use or reference over others? [20:12] joshad: you could try one of the "startup managers" to see if it finds it [20:12] hydruid: lxc http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/amd64/lxc/filelist [20:12] 14.04 upgrade done :))))) [20:13] hydruid, yeah I still need to wait for the update... but was just checking anyway. I guess 35 secs is not the end of the world.. [20:13] joshad: so LXC is running a container at boot? [20:13] d1rkp1tt: it's not too bad, what resolution? [20:13] hydruid, 1680x1050 [20:14] dioioib: Ok. Thanks. I did try and edit it in Catalyst Control Centre with root privaleges, something I remembered having to do with Windows, but it won't even let me click on the max resolution. [20:14] d1rkp1tt: yea lol.....bump it down to 1024*768 and reboot, see if it logs in faster [20:15] hydruid: I would guess so, I decided to just remove it. I might have to read on these containers :) [20:16] joshad: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/lxc.html [20:17] joshad: look for "LXC startup" [20:18] hydruid: Oh, thanks very much === sarsaeol_ is now known as sarsaeol [20:19] E: Type 'n' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/langdalepl-gvfs-mtp-lucid.list [20:19] this my error [20:19] E: Type 'n' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/langdalepl-gvfs-mtp-lucid.list [20:19] zryan: can you pastebin the contents of that file?

[20:35] there aren't any release notes for 14.04 really [20:35] xangua, where can I find such shortcuts? [20:36] hey guys, is there any possibility to remove or turn off the gdm ready sound? [20:36] noiro_, You can clone yes, and you can resize / yes. [20:38] the !releasenotes factoid should probably link to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes for now since http://ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/14.04 is redirecting to ubuntu.com [20:39] Could I throw my problem back out there? Does anyone know how to increase the maximum screen resolution for AMD proprietary drivers? [20:40] yeats: i got someone to test it in 14.04 standard repos and works so will look into that as this datacenter uses a mix of their own plus ubuntus for the security [20:41] where is the recyble bin or trash in ubuntu 12.04 [20:41] how to mount galaxy s4 on ubuntu 10.04 [20:41] Guest85076: did you already try the amd control center?

[20:43] i was wondering, is it already possible to log on to root from the login screen? [20:43] I am trying to get an openvpn connection to work ... I can connect fine, but cannot ping any systems in the remote network - not with IP's nor with hostnames ... the client is running Ubuntu ... I know the server side is working because the connection and pings/sshing works perfectly from my Android phone ... I had this working in 13.10 but since installing 14.04 I cannot get it to work anymore ... [20:43] Lukas1321: why would you want to do that? [20:44] hydruid: whenever something in my account fails and i wouldn't be able to create a new account [20:44] is it somehow possible to use nvidia-331 to output sound via HDMI? worked on my hw before but in trusty it seems badly broken?? switching sinks in pulseaudio has no effect??? alsamixer wont let me adjust volume levels for nvidia???? [20:45] hydruid: i was thinking of making the root acc as a fallback one [20:45] Lukas1321: you can use recovery or just create a "utilities" account [20:46] is ubuntu 12.04 32bit or 64bit?? [20:46] django: there are both version [20:46] how do i know what i have [20:46] uname -a [20:46] zryan: please no pm, you can se supported ubuntu release in the topic [20:46] how does app updates work? like for wireshark nmap and so on?

[20:48] Ovetum: right click on an empty space on the desktop [20:49] Ovetum: and there should be a choice "change desktop background..." [20:49] nevermind nvidia-331 hdmi audio seems to work after "alsa force-reload" and "pkill pulseaudio" as usual pulse is the problem [20:49] d1rkp1tt, Which toolstack are you using? [20:50] Ovetum: and then there will be a combobox that will let you choose the color scheme [20:50] 13.10 - is there some repo I can enable to get the latest version of virtual box? [20:51] to wine or not to wine. That is the questions : / [20:51] lukas1321 not working [20:52] Ovetum: what ubuntu do you have?

[21:01] Does anyone know how to use Catalyst Control Centre to increase the max screen resolution? [21:01] hi what is the name of the standard libs for d programming language ? [21:01] in ubuntu [21:02] troulouliou_dev: http://dlang.org/download.html [21:02] Why does the Ubuntu 14.04 installer ask where to install the bootloader if it has been started in EFI mode? [21:02] troulouliou_dev: if you are havign trouble googling 'd' use 'dlang' [21:02] lpp, thanks :) [21:03] lpp, thoise have been removed from the official repos in 14.04 ? [21:03] lpp, only gdc is present now ? [21:03] yeats: well... it didn't work [21:03] yeats: that broke the system [21:03] troulouliou_dev: I am not a D developer [21:04] fisch246: broke how?

[21:24] hi all. Not very experienced with this, but am trying to follow the community how tos on ubuntu for pxe server. Want to setup a multi distro installer for ubuntu and some other test os's. Am really struggling. Anyone got any good tutorial links for this? Ubuntu one is based on 9.10 and 14.04 with EFI etc seems to have different files for kernel names etc. am just a bit comnfused [21:24] Derek_, I am using it [21:24] things I have already tried: 1) purged nvidia* and bumbleblee* and installed nvidia-319 and the latest nvidia-prime, 2) uninstalled all nvidia drivers (trying to use only intel), 3) booted on failsafe mode [21:25] hey captine. I am having some major problems with it [21:25] Oh, I mistyped something, but now I'm still getting errors. I typed: [21:25] avconv -i out-13.ogv out-13.mpg [21:25] Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height === KurtKraut is now known as kurtkraut [21:25] Derek_, I am pretty new, but post the issue/question and I am sure someone will help if I cannot [21:26] so there is a lot like my mouse works and everything but it won't click on most things like the close button and some menu buttons and also it won't connect to the internet at all with either wired or wireless [21:27] I also tried to restore the default settings from the 'low graphics mode' dialog, also using the back up option and finally when I use the low graphics mode I get a black screen and I have to reboot [21:27] Wow, there's always someone with Nvidia troubles! What is it about nVidia that causes this? [21:27] OSaddict: bad company support I guess [21:28] I am not able to extract a tar.gz file with "tar -zxvf filename" [21:28] it says no such file or directory [21:29] Derek_, did you upgrade to 14.04 or do a clean install? [21:29] macscm: you need to point to the exat route of the file. try listing with ll and copy / paste the full file name [21:29] macscm: then the filename is not correct. [21:29] i did a clean install. brand new hd [21:29] macscm: its case sensitive. [21:29] Make sure the .tar.gz is there too. [21:30] figured it out ... the filename in nautilus was different than the one showing in bash. There was a prefix that was necessary that "ls" wasn't showing me [21:30] hi, anybody knows what happened to perfctr for kernels 3.x ? [21:30] Any ideas on my ffmpeg/avconv issue? [21:30] Derek_, what mouse are you using? seems like a weird issue if the mouse works but doesnt click. [21:30] hi, tried to add i386 precise on amd64 saucy but i get this libvirt: Domain Config error : internal error: no supported architecture for os type 'hvm' [21:31] kvm [21:31] cyborg r.a.t. 9 [21:31] with ubuntu-vm-builder [21:31] it is really weird [21:31] I scheduled it for next reboot. Now it's checking itself [21:32] it can click on somethings just not everything. Can't even click on the shutdown or launcher sometimes [21:34] I use a apple magic mouse and it has some quirks. not sure on the Cyborg. did it work in a previous version? I see the internet if full of changes to xorg.conf to get the mouse working but nothing mentions your issue. [21:34] Derek_, can you see your wifi networks? [21:35] Is there any way to tell the Ubuntu installer that you want to mount an EFI partition at /boot/efi, *without formatting it*?, or should I just pop open a terminal and sudo mount it. Before the partitioning process? [21:35] yeah it worked in 12.04. and yes it can see all wifi networks but when i try to connect it just goes through connecting for a few minutes and then says disconnected you have gone offline [21:36] can someone help me with 14.04's Nvidia X Server? Whenever I try to make changes in the application, it quits upon hitting 'apply' [21:36] My desktop has some folder shortcuts (I think .lnk files) .... how to I "cd" to them [21:36] I'm running into this bug here: [21:36] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1277865 [21:36] Launchpad bug 1277865 in partman-auto (Ubuntu Trusty) "Cannot install Ubuntu 14.04 on EFI hardware" [Critical,Fix released] [21:36] I can't seem to type their name right [21:37] macscm: use tab? [21:37] Useless to say, the released "fix" doesn't work for me. [21:37] Derek_, have you checked for any additional drivers for the wifi? [21:37] perhaps there is something more stable? [21:37] help [21:37] DukeF what do umean [21:37] is it possible to watch dvb-c with gnome-dvb-daemon and totem?? i can scan and see stations but i cant convince totem to show up the dvb channels sidebar, nor will it play the scanned channels.conf directly??? [21:37] any siggestions? [21:37] macscm: type the first word and then press tab [21:37] captine, i can't connect over ethernet wither [21:37] it will auto-complete or if you press tab again list the available matches [21:37] DukeF tab does nothing [21:38] Derek_, is this straight after a fresh install? Did the installer detect the ethernet network and install updates during the install process? [21:39] macscm: do you try to access those files with the terminal? [21:39] DukeF ya [21:39] ok you need to cd to the folder where the .lnk files are [21:39] DukeF I am there [21:40] DukeF when I do "ls" I see the shortcut represented as "to Code_Lib" [21:40] captine, yes it detected the networks during install and everything but wouldn't connect there either. after just installing ubuntu it saw that it added 3 different networks with the same name of my wireless but numbered and wouldn't connect so it's like it tried to make a new profile and save it when it couldn't connect. [21:40] then just type 'to' and then tab [21:40] I need help getting openvpn connection working via network manager? [21:41] DukeF tab does nothing [21:41] or double tab if there is more than one file that starts with to [21:41] I can make the connection but cannot ping any IP's on the remote LAN [21:41] hey, anybody used perfctr kernel patches? [21:42] DukeF its not autocompleting [21:42] Derek_, I must admit I may not be the best person for this. Have you tried disabling and re-enabling the network?\ [21:42] macscm: it should... what do you want to do with the file? [21:42] DukeF it's actually a shortcut to a folder [21:43] I want to get in there [21:43] captine, yeah i tried just about everything i know. i even tried doing some terminal commands to input the network and nothing [21:43] If I am seeding a Ubuntu torrent,does my iso file get upgraded when theirs does,or do I have to re-download the whole file when they update it? [21:43] macscm: well if it's a shortcut and not a symlink you can't just 'cd' to the file, you have to open it with your file browser [21:44] DukeF ok thanks I will try and make a symlink [21:44] Derek_, sounds very weird. Sorry I cannot help more. Perhaps someone else can assist. [21:44] is totem capable of playing dvb-c in ubuntu trusty ? [21:44] captine, thanks for your help. ill figure it out eventually lol [21:44] sydneyJDykstra2: torrents don't change once they're created. To get a newer Ubuntu iso you would need to use a newer torrent (or use zsync, which will efficiently just download the changes between the old and new iso files, but via http rather than bittorrent).

[21:48] Jordan_U: i have a dvb-c Em28xx usb stick wich worked with vlc before, but i want to try native gnome apps instead. i configured it in gnome-dvb-daemon but in totem the sidebar just wont show up [21:48] I have an asus laptop with intel and nvidia (740m) graphic cards and when I upgraded from 13.10 to 14.04 i get the 'low graphic mode' screen [21:48] things I have already tried: 1) purged nvidia* and bumbleblee* and installed nvidia-319 and the latest nvidia-prime, 2) uninstalled all nvidia drivers (trying to use only intel), 3) booted on failsafe mode [21:49] in the terminal, how do I go to a folder that has a space in it's name (I made it in Windws) [21:49] macscm, either put the path in quotes, or escape the space with \ [21:49] tgm4883 th [21:49] thx [21:50] macscm, I believe if you use tab complete it escapes it for you [21:50] macscm: /path/to/path\ with\ spaces [21:50] !tab | macscm [21:50] macscm: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [21:50] nice [21:50] how do i change HDD model name? [21:51] DukeF: I think you answered you own question. Your options from here are to file a bug report - with ubuntu for the open source driver and with nvidia for the closed driver [21:51] DukeF: Did you try the drivers from nVidia's website? [21:51] Jordan_U: i installed gnome-dvb-{daemon,client} and totem-plugins-dvb-daemon and checked that plugin in totem. afaik it should show up an channels selector in the sidebar which it does not [21:51] dastardly: In what context? What are you seeing? What do you want to change it to? Why? [21:51] i'm having some issues with cedar trail graphics...can't play video full screen [21:51] bodhi_zazen: :( that's bad news but thanks, I needed confirmation for that [21:52] OSaddict: not that I don't want to try but I'd rather file a but and try to get an official fix [21:52] *bug [21:52] Jordan_U: i asked a question [21:53] DukeF: it is frustrating, "X" is going to get messier between MIR and wayland and who knows what ;) [21:53] dastardly, yes, but your question didn't make any sense. Do you want to change it's /dev/sd* letter? Do you want to change it's mount point? Something else? [21:54] DukeF: Did you get the Intel graphics to work? [21:54] dastardly, unless you actually mean what you say, in which case I'll ask WTF you would want to change the model name of a drive [21:55] OSaddict: nope :( [21:55] I will try and modify xorg.conf manually [21:55] ive hidden a partition and changed drive model name to mimc the space on the unhiden partition now i cant remember how i did it in the 1st place [21:55] else I will need to go back to 13.10 ¬_¬ [21:56] it must been almost a year ago [21:56] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVpOyKCNZYw Now, I understand about the nVidia problems! [21:57] dastardly: How are you querying the drive's model name? Why is the model name significant? [21:57] lol yeah [21:57] Hi linuxthefish [21:57] i_dun_get_it: Hi [21:57] i just want to undo it === g_byers is now known as gbyers[Away] [21:58] cant remeber how i done it [21:58] <|\n> upgraded to 14.04, lost my mate, got into gnome flashback session, how do i set up keyboard layout switching hotkey? [21:58] dastardly: I'm still not clear on what it is you did in the first place. Please answer my questions so that I can try to determine that, and thus help you reverse it. [21:59] thank you all guys, will keep trying failed attempts to fix it until I go mad and reinstall :D bye! [22:00] how much swap should I use on a system with 128mb of ram? [22:00] Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7279175/ [22:00] ive hidden a partition and changed drive model name to mimc the space on the unhiden partition now i cant remember how i did it in the 1st place [22:00] c|oneman: What desktop environment are you using? [22:00] none [22:00] i find that 14.04 is heating slightly more my thinkpad t420 than 13.10 [22:01] but maybe just an impression [22:01] i resized the partition [22:01] dastardly: What do you mean by "to mimc the space on the unhidden partition"? The OS doesn't use the model name of a drive to determine its size, it just asks the drive to tell it what size it is directly. [22:01] io cant remenber what app i used [22:01] the OS dosent be peoiple do [22:02] c|oneman: I would use 1 Gb of swap if you have the hard drive space, if not 512 mb [22:02] c|oneman: So, just command-line? I normally put 1 GB on all of my systems. Maybe 2 for you. I've never had a need for more than 2 GB, ever! [22:02] dastardly: Is there some utility in Ubuntu that you're using to view the drive's model name? [22:02] i just was bored and wanted to test if it could be done [22:02] could adding too much swap give applications the impression that memory is pleantiful and degrade performance? [22:03] <|\n> upgraded to 14.04, lost my mate, got into gnome flashback session, how do i set up keyboard layout switching hotkey? [22:03] What exactly happens if you run out of memory? Kernel panic? [22:03] I don't know, I haven't run out yet. [22:03] c|oneman: no, swap is managed by the kernel and RAM will always be used in preference [22:03] dastardly: Honestly, I've never heard of anyone checking a drive's size by doing anything other than using a tool to query the size, which will not be affected by a change in the model name. But that aside, is there a tool you're using in Ubuntu that is displaying the "fake" model you gave the drive? If so, what tool? [22:04] when you run out of RAM / Swap usually applications crash , usually not the kernel [22:04] c|oneman: /proc/sys/vm/swappiness controls how much the programs use swap. [22:04] that netbook is using xp i want to use the hidden space to install ubuntu [22:05] well the kernel kills programs to mae free ram again. [22:05] i must have folwed some online guid [22:05] guide [22:06] What gets annoying as hell is when programs like your file manager keep swapping and losing their cache. Then they make you wait forever when you unminimize them. [22:06] dastardly: Is there a tool in Ubuntu that is displaying the fake model name currently? Please answer "Yes" or "no". If Yes, please also give the name of the tool. [22:06] its the same on linux [22:07] ive booted gparted and it displays the same model and space [22:07] Jordan_U: Doesn't the BIOS setup tell you? [22:07] dastardly: Thank you. Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". [22:07] but on testdisk it found more space [22:08] im not on that machine [22:08] if only i could remeber what app i used [22:09] or the online guide [22:09] dastardly, you can't change a drive's model name [22:09] <|\n> upgraded to 14.04, lost my mate, got into gnome flashback session, how do i set up keyboard layout switching hotkey?

Does anyone know how to create a snapshot of a VPS server to be reinstalled at a later time? [22:22] So, you know how in winecfg, you can change the color/size/font of many of the widget elements? In what file is that data stored? [22:22] i think using MATE on Ubuntu is a bad ideas [22:23] Im sleepy [22:23] They do not install updates every so often for you? [22:23] off to bed [22:23] Anyone know how to get two finger scrolling working on a touchscreen? [22:23] Night guys [22:23] if you want gnome 2 usage try gnome fallback [22:23] |\n: i can see the boot menu from UNetbootin but then black screen on my TV [22:24] <|\n> SocoM, there are differences in various hdmi+display behavior, nothing is constant about it if you will try different hardware [22:24] Jordan_U, what's ubuntu's USB creator? [22:24] <|\n> SocoM, any vga option to workaround your case by chance?

[22:25] nmvictor, i prefer mate [22:25] #ubuntu-powerpc [22:25] nmvictor: Goodnight. [22:25] Mint 16 (ubuntu 13.10) [22:25] nmvictor, I use synapse, not sure how it looks in kde though. [22:26] to bind hotkey is in gnome control center [22:26] keyboard [22:26] |\n: it worked when adding nouveau.modeset=0 to the boot menu <3 [22:26] agency parameters and shortkut [22:26] alexa: Are you using ubuntu? [22:26] !mint | alexa [22:26] alexa: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [22:27] alexa: Change made by the Mint team are actually the most likely cause of the bug you're having. If you try to install Ubuntu 14.04 I expect that you will not have this problem. [22:27] <|\n> SocoM, thanks for sharing that, man! =) [22:28] Guys, I am really sorry. The thing is, Mint's support is really poor. And I always get the best support here. [22:28] mate18: mate? [22:28] nmvictor, yes MATE! [22:28] it is only cause of cinnamon 2 [22:28] not working well under pure ubuntu [22:28] as under mint [22:29] mate18: how would I install that? [22:29] <|\n> mate is the only choice, gtk3 classic flashback is still overbugged moar than any fork on earth [22:29] yeats: just upgraded my laptop to 14.04, and it updated flawlessly. Sure so the machine that matters has problems, but my junk machine works fine -__- [22:29] nmvictor, yes MATE! [22:29] nmvictor, http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/download [22:29] Beldar: last time i used synapse, 3yrs ago, it sucked [22:29] alexa: Then install Ubuntu 14.04 and get great support. [22:30] <|\n> upgraded to 14.04, lost my mate, got into gnome flashback session, how do i set up keyboard layout switching hotkey, anyone? =) [22:30] eww - I would at least look at k/x/lubuntu prior to mate , better support [22:30] |\n -> you should try to go mint IRC to have more help and support to MATE, we are noob here for help you more i think [22:30] !tmi | nmvictor lol [22:30] nmvictor lol: Um thanks... We *really* did not need to know that... [22:30] mate18: mate the desktop, ooh!I prefer KDE [22:30] Jordan_U, you believe Cinnamon would work better under 14.04? [22:30] <|\n> coolspot0, i'm not trolling, if you could answer - do it, otherwise - keep trolling me instead [22:31] I have a Xubuntu 12.04 installation with Update Manager set to notify me of new LTS releases, but it hasn't done it for Trusty yet. Is this to be expected, like a built-in delay or something (I just manually ran an update check, and it didn't make a difference.), or is something wrong? [22:31] Beldar: yea [22:31] cinnamon is removed from the repo's in 14.04 [22:31] Beldar: but now you know [22:31] nmvictor: And knowing is half the battle. G.I. JOE!!! [22:31] |\n -> i can't help you sry :( [22:32] dweez: dangerous dave > g.i. joe ;) [22:32] <|\n> coolspot0, you're saying it like you could, but ok [22:32] wheelin, The lts upgrade occurs at 14.04.1 in july. [22:32] |\n -> it's my poor english sry [22:32] fisch246: glad to hear of your partial success :-/ - I've upgraded three computers with no issues [22:32] Beldar: Ah, ok. That makes sense, in a way.

The wait for .1 to upgrade thing makes sense if you truly want stability, but I'm a little anxious to upgrade, too. So I'll have to weight the options. Thanks for letting me know the second one, though. Or third, really, since I was also gonna consider a fresh install. === t_pol is now known as moogly === moogly is now known as colimbe [22:37] alexa: You basically have two choices 1: Use Ubuntu, and packages supported by Ubuntu and get support here and 2: Use Mint and get support in Mint's support channel or generic channels like ##linux. I'm personally rather frustrated that you asked here for this particular problem, as I'm involved with the area of code that is failing and I spent a good deal of my own time just now looking through Ubuntu's code trying to find the ... [22:37] mzaza -> maybe it's because vsync activated ? [22:37] ... problem, only to find that there most likely is none. You wasted my time, which I am volunteering. That is really not a nice thing to do, and is part of the reason why we have a policy of only supporting Ubuntu here. [22:38] coolspot0: What's vsync? [22:38] mzaza vsync is an option in your nviadia panel [22:39] wheeling -> waiting is safe but for me i know i can't wait so long for proceed update :) [22:39] is any body here [22:39] sort of [22:39] mzaza -> VSync is an option to avoid tearing and limit FPS to Frequency of your screen (often 60 FPS) [22:39] coolspot0: Yeah, definitely something worth thinking about :) [22:40] so whats going on here [22:40] mzaza -> Vsync option is in nvidia-setting [22:40] s [22:40] nappy, im working on getting my 14.04 server working === Guest56218 is now known as ecook [22:40] hey there i am trying to run this command => sudo umount -t vboxsf virtualbox ~/Bureau/share but it reads that the 'disk' is occupied, the problem is that in the meantime my cpu is running at full strengh, do you know the right command to unmount the 'disk'? [22:40] instead of upgrading i did a clean install [22:40] yes am downloading mine too [22:40] Jordan_U, I am really sorry. [22:40] nappy: I am working on global domination [22:41] alexa: Please just learn from it, and ask questions in the appropriate channel in the future. [22:41] Jordan_U, I will. [22:41] oh really what name will you call it [22:42] Quick question - wanted to catch some thoughts... Keep 21 open for ftp, and 22 closed to sftp/ssh, or vice versa, allow sftp but block ftp.

[22:44] Hello. I have a problem with chrome on one of my Ubuntu machines. When I want to open google.com or youtube.com it takes often minutes of trying to load the page until I get an error msg. opening an incognito window ALWAYS works. Any idea? [22:44] nappy: in VM, things can be or seem slow [22:44] coolspot0: yes [22:44] nappy: give it more resources, or install it natively [22:45] mzaza -> so i don't know what is the problems sry [22:45] ecook, well, you know that ftp is not encrypted so if you are using a password to login, someone can sniff it right? [22:45] vlt: ideally, google provides support for their product, since its not an ubuntu application, but, i would try removing your .config.. you can just move it out of the way temporarilyl and save it [22:46] ecook: http://solderintheveins.co.uk/2011/03/ubuntu-sftp-only-account-how-to/ [22:46] vlt: its probably something to do with your saved cookies or some other configs === alexa_away is now known as alexa [22:47] Was wubi discontinued? [22:47] yes [22:48] Bray90820: yes an no, it is no longer official but can be made to work [22:48] Jordan_U, I changed my decision. Instead of installing Mint over Ubuntu, I decided to stay on Ubuntu on this PC (even though I use Mint on another PC). But there are few things that work better on Cinnamon under Mint, than on Ubuntu. For example, Additional Drivers option is missing in cinnamon settings. [22:48] how can i make cairo dock open it self when i turn my pc on [22:48] bodhi_zazen -> but wubi discontinued because it was buggy no ? [22:48] holstein: Thanks, I’ll try that. [22:49] coolspot0: depends on who you ask ;) [22:49] but I'll try to find some support for cinnamon [22:49] thanks, anyway [22:49] bodhi_zazen: i just created a usb disk of 13.04 with the official startup disk creator and it has wubi.exe on it [22:49] the wudi maintainers claim to have fixed the bugs, but I do not know all the details [22:50] hum ok [22:50] http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-downloader-for-windows-discontinued-from-ubuntu-13-04.html [22:50] !13.04 [22:50] Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) was the 18th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on January 27, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/raring [22:50] thanks bodhi_zazen - my main concern would be opening up 22 period. I understand you can create sftp only accounts, but would like to avoid opening up the ssh port altogether if I can. But, as psusi pointed out, ftp is inherently insecure, which is why I’m ambivalent. You can make an argument both ways. [22:50] Just wondering if you guys have some opinions on how they should be weighted, and decide one way or another [22:50] hey --- so in a new install of trusty i no longer have a 'session choose' in the lightdm login manager after installing another window manager from 'apt' --- is there anyway to bring it back? any help would be appreciated. [22:51] Are you found duplicate "Security & Privacy" in Dash on 14.04?. [22:51] do you know a virtual machine with which i could just copy paste files from ubuntu guest to windows host? i am currently using virtualbox but apparently i can't do that and this shared file things it eats up all my cpu whenever i activate it?! [22:51] holstein: my bad i ment 14.04 [22:51] ecook: just secure your ssh server - http://bodhizazen.net/Tutorials/SSH_security [22:52] how can i make cairo dock open it self when i shut my pc down and i turn it on again [22:52] Bray90820: no worries.. just making sure you werent using that outdated information [22:53] colimbe: you can share files many ways , I use KVM, see http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/9p_virtio , also guestfish [22:53] holstein: Alright [22:54] well anyone here who wants to be personal friend [22:54] !ot | nappy_ [22:54] nappy_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[22:57] nappy_, Startup applications. [22:57] nappy_, type !startup [22:57] yeats: my guess is during the upgrade the kernel was marked for autoremove. So it installed it as an update, the updater then thought it wasn't in need anymore, and removed it at the end. That's my guess.

Packages which presumably (for essentials anyway) [23:05] <|\n> at least link to the bug maybe to track it? can't figure out which one exactly related to this situation [23:07] bodhi_zazen, what would be the command for ffmpeg to join an mp4 vid and mp3 tune?

[23:22] software center [23:22] though when i tried terminal i also got an error [23:23] I get a large list of stuff to uninstall. Nothing to install. "0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade" [23:23] Yeah. Besides, 14.04 won't fit on a regular cd due to the large file size, plus a usb a much faster. Also, it should give you the option to upgrade from 12.04 during installation, while preserving your files. [23:23] drodriguezpadill oh incidentally, somewhere in my trouble shooting I came across a reference to the original ubuntu installation that was using (before a couple prior upgrades) why does it keep storing the original install media from so many upgrades ago and where is that stored? [23:23] adminewb, in /etc/apt/sources.list [23:24] scoffin, whats on the other boxes? [23:24] thanks bazhang [23:25] d1rkp1tt: ?? win8, fedora, mac, etc network works fine for the other machines [23:26] ciao helpers, I will check back when I find a good reference for a usb drive start disk [23:26] Guest88349: Please pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get -f install". [23:27] scoffin, same for me from win8 ... I can connect the other way.. just looking at it now [23:27] adminewb, wait. [23:27] ya [23:27] There should already be one installed on your system. [23:27] help file? [23:27] an application to make a usb disk [23:28] scoffin, I think you just have to share a folder.. then it tries to install the service [23:28] a usb disk from an arbitrary ISO image? [23:28] start disk? [23:28] scoffin, or at least thats what mine is doing right now [23:28] It should be called, Startup Disk Creator, or something like that. [23:28] d1rkp1tt: not sure I understand. You also have problems connecting in?? [23:28] admin use dd in terminal? [23:28] why does the top bar is shown on external monitor? [23:28] will look for it, but I'd have guessed it would want to install 12.04 [23:28] yes, but I have just shared a folder [23:28] if theres nothing shared theres nothing to connect to? [23:29] No, you can choose the iso yourself. It should automatically detect it [23:29] I think I did share some folders already, but I will try again now [23:29] ok thanks [23:29] you're welcome [23:29] lots of stuff in my smb.conf :-) [23:29] ice9: why not [23:30] if for some reason the 14.04 disk isn't detected automatically, just click on the other volumes button and search for it in your files. [23:30] k1l_: it's useless to have it on all screens and takes space and it's not good if you are doing a presentation [23:31] ice9: it makes a lot of sense: the mouse ways are much shorter for indicators or menue. and for a presentation you should have fullscreen anyway [23:31] Jordan_U: The command ran but nothing new was installed. [23:31] scoffin, just trying mine out too... ;) [23:32] shares are seen when I samba to the 127.0 machine, not from outside machines [23:32] ice9: libreoffice impress got an excelent presentation mode for ext. monitors [23:32] k1l_: but if you are using the second monitor for just reading a tutorial for example while doing the work on the main monitor then its really useless, and also the launcher should be on the second monitor too to make the mouse ways short right?? so there should be an option to show/hide it [23:33] ice9: yes there is a setting, see unity-tweak-tool [23:34] k1l_: there is no option for the top bar in the tweak tool [23:34] ice9: and every user got a different workflow. i am fine with the panel on every monitor [23:34] ice9: but for the launcher [23:37] k1l_: I don't see anyoptions for the top menu in the tweak tool [23:38] ice9: but for the launcher [23:41] well my 14.04 is done downloading any advice how to install it [23:42] Burn to cd and boot from cd [23:42] nappy: i'm using ubuntu gnome but in either case it's pretty straightforward...just write it to a cd/dvd/usb stick and run through the install process :) it's about as self-explanatory as windows is anyway! [23:42] (windows 7...windows 8 still deserves an explanation) [23:43] arthurfiggis: alcohol [23:44] mmmmm flambe [23:44] ooh okay i will get back here when am done installing my 14.04 [23:46] scoffin, got into mine [23:46] grrr [23:46] what you do? [23:47] scoffin, so I just redid the share, but clicked allow others to create files [23:48] then restarted samba [23:48] did you disable ufw? or open ports?
