[00:00] heh. It does seem to connect into the 14.4 machine IF i give the IP address. But the windows "network" menu does not show the machine [00:01] the sound server isn't running, i check the sound settings and my device is not there. [00:02] that means that the ubuntu box is not advertising its presence [00:02] scoffin, same... at least with ufw on I can see the log.. [00:03] scoffin, mines not quite connecting with ufw one still [00:03] the sound server isn't running, i check the sound settings and my device is not there. [00:03] this might just be a 14.4 bug ??? [00:04] Modify these entries: [00:04] Network security: LAN Manager authentication level Send LM & NTLM responses [00:04] Minimum session security for NTLM SSP Disable Require 128-bit encryption [00:04] I did do that in Windows... [00:04] security policies [00:04] Is there any reason I would want to use BTRFS over EXT4? [00:04] electricprism: no [00:04] Is there any reason I would want to use BTRFS over EXT4? [00:04] electricprism: no [00:05] lol bot [00:05] electricprism: lol repeating yourself [00:05] d1rkp1tt: where should I do these changes? in the 14.4 network mgr? [00:05] your response was so quick, i assumed you were a bot [00:06] Good night, I'm going to sleep, thank you for contributing to the community [00:07] scoffin, I did those in windows 8 [00:07] ... not sure if it made a difference, but I changed the local security policy [00:07] I think it allows samba handshake [00:07] "I think" [00:08] hi, I am planning to but a AMD Radeon 7750 DDR5 GPU, but just a little concerned about past experiences with AMD/ATI cards with Ubuntu, I am curretly using a Nvidia card without any problem, so should I consider buying 7750 by AMD or look at Nvidia alternatives, any help would be appreciated. also do I have to use Closed-source fglrx drivers? [00:08] but still that doesnt explain other devices not seeing it [00:08] *buy [00:08] I have tested from a Fedora 20 box, same behavior, so probably not a win8 config error [00:08] scoffin, what happens if you do sudo apt-get install samba [00:08] yeah, I installed that. now says "already installed" [00:08] the sound server isn't running, i check the sound settings and my device is not there. [00:09] the sound server isn't running, i check the sound settings and my device is not there. [00:09] time [00:12] scoffin, this firewalls annoying me.. cant connect with it on [00:13] I'm beginning to think this is just a 14.4 bug, maybe wait a few weeks :-) [00:13] *14.04 [00:15] hi, I am planning to buy a AMD Radeon 7750 DDR5 GPU, but just a little concerned about past experiences with AMD/ATI cards with Ubuntu, I am curretly using a Nvidia card without any problem, so should I consider buying 7750 by AMD or look at Nvidia alternatives, any help would be appreciated. also do I have to use Closed-source fglrx drivers? [00:16] well mines fine with firewall off [00:17] I wonder if yours is shares permissions [00:17] but then I can see the print service etc [00:18] yeah, I can connect using the IP address and "map network drive" (win8) and with "smbclient" (Fedora 20) with the firewall disabled [00:18] but no joy using the "browse network" GUI from either win8 or Fedora [00:20] could also be caused by a nmbd config error so that the machine name is not advertised [00:20] BillyBag2: Did the "sudo dpkg --configure -a" command at least seem to take some time? [00:20] scoffin: nmbd is the culprit. [00:21] d1rkp1tt: this seems like a very helpful discussion.... thanks! learned a lot [00:21] nmbd is what advertises your computer name via broadcast to the network. [00:21] Without that, other computers can't automagically discover your fileserver. [00:21] oh wow, so i looked up how the backup is doing... apparently I have over 3600 volumes... Well at least it's almost done, and I'll be able to get a system back soon ;-; [00:21] I know nmbd is running, but I did not get to the smb.conf yet [00:21] nmbd used to have its own config file. [00:22] nmbd.conf or something. [00:22] I did do something with nautilus just now [00:22] .. hmm now what did I do [00:22] If you run Wireshark on your Windoze box you should be able to sniff out whether any NetBios broadcast packets are being sent out. [00:22] I'm guessing not. [00:22] oh just attempted to set perms as root, not my user [00:22] gksudo nautilus [00:22] I got a problem, the sound server isn't running, i check the sound settings and my device is not there. [00:23] jitsusama: yeah, my network is fine, its just the 14.4 box that is ill [00:23] I'm more meaning, running Wireshark will tell you whether nmbd is advertising anything. [00:24] I will try that, good advice [00:24] Packet captures is where I spend my work-days, so I always look at the packets first :) [00:25] You can also look at netstat -ul on your server. [00:25] hello guys, how to remove unity on 14.04 and use MATE? [00:25] You should see some LISTENing ports opened for nmbd. [00:25] Anyone know how to modify mime-types or whatever so I can drag/drop swf-files to my firefox window again? [00:26] If not, then it's probably not binding right. [00:26] netstat -pul actually. [00:26] That'll show which pid owns it. [00:27] jitsusama: now I'm running with ufw disabled, so should be open [00:27] so 14.04 was released early? [00:27] solid_liq: no [00:27] I got a problem, the sound server isn't running, i check the sound settings and my device is not there. [00:27] rww, it's released, right? [00:27] ufw will just filter packets, netstat -pul will show you if you have an application listening. [00:27] it was released on the 17th, which was its scheduled release date === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [00:27] rww, oh, I thought it had be scheduled for the 21st [00:28] nmbd listens for broadcasts from other computers, and sends out its own broadcasts. Using netstat will verify whether he's listening or not. [00:28] If he's not listening, its a good sign that he's not sending either. [00:28] How do you enable the click to minimize in unity 14.04 [00:28] t4ng0, i suggest install using the ubuntu-minimal iso with the command line only option, and then sudo apt-get install mate-desktop [00:29] Hi all! I need some help with my Java IDE on Ubuntu 13.10 64 bit [00:30] jitsusama: I'm definitely thinking the broadcast [00:30] OMG, so much better [00:30] scoffin, im gonna have to watch this on wireshark to figure out what to open in the firewall [00:30] scoffin, Ive opened tonnes of ports lol [00:30] Either I don't have the right click menu or the top (file menu) does not work [00:30] wts [00:31] hey guys! :) Can I have a quick question? What type of package should I choose for compiled gcc with bazaar? (ingle binary, indep binary, multiple binary, library, kernel module, kernel patch?) [00:31] I guess single binary, but I'm not sure... [00:31] I really don't mind keeping the firewall off, since I'm behind a regular firewall also [00:33] jitsusama: do you know what options in smb.conf are used to set the nmb broadcasts? [00:33] artemis3, does ubuntu-minimal.iso is 14.04 pakage? [00:33] and... backup fails from running out of space... [00:34] not even a warning [00:34] *Switches unity icons to 26. Creams on self [00:34] reminds me of an upgrade i did in the past [00:34] no notifications [00:35] deekej: I don't understand the question. Could you please try to rephrase it? [00:35] sudo ufw allow samba worked.. but I dont know the scope of what that just did... doh [00:36] d1rk: that is documented, try google [00:36] hello folks [00:36] looks like its just allowed from everywhere [00:36] but it is the preferred way to open the right ports IIRC [00:37] Jordan_U: ok, I will try. I compiled the latest gcc-4.8.2, which I need. And I want to create a .deb package from it using bazaar (bzr), taken from this tutorial: http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/getting-set-up.html [00:37] I dont want that... should at least limit to hosts on the LAN, even though my firewall blocks others [00:37] hi guys [00:38] Jordan_U: Now I'm at the part where I started creating the package. And the bazaar (bzr) asks me, what type of package am I creating. (Type of package: single binary, indep binary, multiple binary, library, kernel module, kernel patch? [s/i/m/l/k/n]) [00:38] d1rkp1tt: yeah, there is an option in smb.conf to restict access to a set of IP addresses. I use 192.168.0 and 192,168.1 [00:38] Can I mention I've found a memory leak in Ubuntu 14.04?? [00:38] scoffin: I'm pretty sure it's a separate config file. [00:38] scoffin, found the correct command to reduce scope [00:38] every thing seems to go well with installation [00:38] ;) [00:38] Jordan_U: I guess it should be single binary (s), but I'm not sure. [00:38] Hi! I have a nagging problem with my Java IDE - either I don't have the right click menu or the top (file menu) does not work [00:39] jitsusama: OK, I will look into that [00:39] Jordan_U: huh, sorry, wrong link, this one is the correct: http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html [00:39] but when when i start it up i get : could not load /lib/modules/3.11.0-12-generic/modules.dep no duch file directory [00:39] So on top of the auto mounting USB device Bug, there's a memory leak [00:40] hi all any have problems with resolution on integrated graphic card, intel i5-4670 ?? [00:41] jitsusama: the nmbd man page specified smb.conf as the config file for nmbd also [00:42] did they ever remove the hardcoding from Chromium Tab UI for font size yet ? [00:42] thanks for nothing. [00:42] I know that feeling [00:42] deekej: What are you packaging? [00:42] Ok scoffin, I'm obviously outdated. [00:43] scoffin, done.. [00:43] no, you gave some useful ideas [00:43] d1rk: everything working now? [00:43] scoffin, yes [00:43] cool [00:43] scoffin, I am in the windows workgroup.. [00:43] cant get ubuntu to load after an install anyone willing to help a newb??? [00:44] scoffin, also, same user on the other machine? [00:44] not loading the modules.dep [00:44] yeah, same user [00:44] no such file directory [00:44] everything said it installed correctly [00:44] Jordan_U: latest stable gcc (4.8.2) [00:45] So, scoffin, I'm not sure exactly where to look. I haven't messed with Samba in a coons age. [00:45] I would try turning on as much debugging as you can though to see why it isn't loading right. [00:46] So what can be done about - no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory [00:46] its ok, I got enough to work with; and d1rk got it working so its probably a bug in my config [00:46] thanks to both of you; samba always give me grief [00:47] scoffin, I could share my config? [00:48] sure, put it on a pastebin? [00:48] scoffin, also, I assume they are all plugged into the same router, switch, hub? [00:48] Hi! I have a weird problem with my Java IDE - either I don't have the right click menu or the top (file) menu does not work [00:48] yeah, simple network [00:48] ok, wheres the smb.conf lol [00:48] /etc/samba [00:49] que informacion tienen de nueva [00:50] does ubuntu has an offtopic channel? [00:50] koell, #ubuntu-offtopic [00:50] I did chmod 700 on my home folder, it's not good. What can I do to undo it? [00:50] wonderful is moment very important for world [00:51] Isn't it a good job I have patience [00:51] waiting for a reply to my last question and the UAS issue [00:51] aidrocsid1, you'd have to chmod it to something else [00:52] i can see underworld.. [00:52] aidrocsid1, default is 755 [00:52] scoffin, sent pm [00:53] got it, thanks for your efforts [00:53] ty tgm [00:53] XD [00:53] XDd [00:53] jejejejeje [00:55] Ah well, looks like one more re-install of 14.04 then it's back to 12.04 [00:55] i like need more cash and time and live [00:55] way to many bugs it seems in an LTS [00:56] scoffin, sweet good luck [00:56] harascho panimaesh? [00:56] Anyone else experience a GUI that gives a cursor but nothing else after updating? [00:56] Dave-Maydew, I'd point out that you are before the first point release [00:56] Switching to console gives me absolutely everything, but the GUI is worthless [00:57] first point release?? [00:57] t, you too... got to go now [00:57] Dave-Maydew, in 3 months, there will be another 14.04 iso, eg. 14.04.1 [00:57] how would I enable system sounds? [00:57] which will have a bunch of fixes in it [00:57] so we have to wait 3 months for UAS Automounting and the memory leak to be fixed?? [00:58] I'm definitely going back to 12.04 then [00:58] no [00:58] He Regresado no fue facil [00:58] no to which one? [00:58] Dave-Maydew, the fix will be in the regular repos. I'm just pointing out that you are expecting stability from a brand new OS [00:59] Any ideas on the Eclipse IDE menuitems and right click ? [00:59] Arcantos: something we can help you with? [00:59] Dave-Maydew, while that may be the ideal we're shooting for, I don't know believe it's realistic to expect that of any OS [00:59] I'm just perplexed to why Canonical shipped an OS that the UAS didn't work from the word go [01:00] Dave-Maydew, I'd bet that it works for quite a few people. Can you link to your bug report? [01:01] Hi I'm trying to set up a dial-up modem (yes I know who still uses that) its one of those sound card modems, I'm having some issues setting it up, anyone willing to help, its Ubuntu 12.10 again old but it was what I had I'll have to take it somewhere and update it at some point [01:02] !eol | dark_samus [01:02] dark_samus: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

[01:03] Yeah don't have the internet speed atm, but I'm pretty sure it'll be the same procedure even on newer versions [01:03] Imrael, no, you'd need to reinstall [01:03] Hey guys on 14.04 and I'm having issues, I tried to create the packages for the ati drivers but it gives me an error that I can't tell which package I'm missin http://paste.ubuntu.com/7280170/ some help? [01:03] Imrael, 13.10 -> 14.04 or 12.04 -> 14.04 [01:04] I was afraid of that. :) Thanks for the help. I appreciate it! [01:04] Imrael: depends. do you find upgrading 12.10 to 13.04 to 13.10 to 14.04 possible? [01:04] Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

[01:09] isn't there a secondary chromium package for the dev version ? [01:09] I have looked at the eol page, but it doesn't show anything about upgrading from 12.04 LTS. I have the feeling I am missing something really simple, but being half-asleep isn't helping much. :) [01:10] Imrael: 12.04 isn't EOL. [01:10] Imrael, you said you were on 12.10 [01:10] Sorry. Mistyped. Was trying to read as I typed. [01:11] Imrael, if you are on 12.04, then wait 3 months for the first point release and you'll be offered the upgrade to 14.04. If you are on 12.10, activate the EOL repos and upgrade to 13.04, then 13.10, then finally 14.04 (but IMHO, it would be easier to do a clean install at that point) [01:12] Oh yeah, for some reason I can't run .run as a program from nautilus after changing the permission for it, it actually kept trying to open it with gedit until I selected execute as program app or whatever is called from the menu , the mouse pointer spins but it won't load, had to use teminal at the end. [01:12] Ok. Thanks for the info. I appreciate it! [01:17] Good night, and thank you all for the new 14.04, so much wished ! [01:18] I'm running 13.10. Is there a way to disable this function: When I click an app icon in the sidelauncher, and that app happens to have more than one window, the windows get all movey and transitiony and they eventually end up next to each other. Which would be great, if my hardware could handle that kind of a transition. Can I disable it, so that they just auto-snap in one "frame"? [01:18] Iam sad, because this http://paste.ubuntu.com/7280245/ dont work with 14.04 as still work with 13.10 , lubuntu and ubuntu ? why ? please give me a slution that i cant find no where in the internet ! [01:19] Seems like it wasn't devscript http://paste.ubuntu.com/7280249/ I think is the same error [01:19] slut ion? :D [01:19] solution [01:20] * litropy wants me some of them ions [01:22] * litropy returns to family mode === Unismurfhedgehog is now known as SonikkuAmerica [01:28] So I had Windows 8.1 and (a semi-working version of) Ubuntu 13.10 dual booting on my computer. I decided to upgrade it to 14.04 so I could get Ubuntu working. But, now, I cannot boot into Windows! Previously, GRUB used to provide my a screen with choice to boot between either Ubuntu or Windows. Now, I don't even see the GRUB Window on startup. [01:28] Im really worried, and I don't want to destroy my system anymore than it has been until now. So, does anyone have detailed steps on what I should do? I can provide output on pastebin of any commands required. [01:29] that seems pretty bad [01:30] @b13 yeah Im like panic mode right now [01:31] confused by indicators -> can one "minimize to indicators" as one would "minimize in the tray" [01:32] cannotbootintowi: do you have RAID enabled? [01:32] I dont think so [01:32] what command can I do to check that? [01:32] what h/w are you using [01:32] Im using Lenovo Y410p laptop [01:32] does it have an SSD and an HDD? [01:33] no, only 1TB HDD === peter is now known as Guest87665 [01:33] cannotbootintowi, do you have an EFI partition? [01:33] I'm running 13.10. Is there a way to disable this function: When I click an app icon in the sidelauncher, and that app happens to have more than one window, the windows get all movey and transitiony and they eventually end up next to each other. Which would be great, if my hardware could handle that kind of a transition. Can I disable it, so that they just auto-snap in one "frame"? [01:34] I think so. Thats how I used to boot previously I think [01:34] cannotbootintowi, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [01:35] does anyone know how long we have to wait until we can do-release-upgrade trusty? [01:35] thought Im not sure on the details. What I did previously was make space for ubuntu, load live cd for 12.04, install 12.04, repair grub. That did not help, so I installed rEFInd boot manager. Then I had problems with 12.04 andmy graphics card so I upgraded from 12.04 to 13.10 [01:35] bswartz: are you on 13.10 or 12.04? [01:35] cannotbootintowi: did you remove the Lenovo recovery partition etc earlier? [01:35] cannotbootintowi, also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [01:35] this fixed GRUB but I could not see anything [01:35] rww: 12.04.4 [01:35] I did not remove anything [01:36] bswartz: until 14.04.1 comes out, in July. sudo do-release-upgrade -d will work right now (only because there is no 14.10 yet), but if you're using LTS for stability reasons, I'd wait. [01:36] cannotbootintowi, you don't need refind anymore. [01:36] See the reason Im a little worried about using boot-repair is because the last time I tried it it broke my computer even more (used to be able to boot into ubuntu, after repair grub just gave some error, and hence I had to use rEFInd) [01:36] rww: ty [01:38] rww: I was under the impression that -d upgraded you to trunk, not the latest non-LTS release [01:38] bswartz: it upgrades you to the latest devel release, which is currently aliased to 14.04 because there is no 14.10. [01:38] * rww pats ubottu [01:39] cannotbootintowi, I'm not sure. Just keep in mind your data is very likely safe. So it might help to set up/zap a new EFI partition at the beginning of your HD and follow that link to set up EFI, then do boot repair. It's what worked for me. [01:39] how can I check the different partitions existing? [01:39] cannotbootintowi, if you're very worried, you can always boot from a liveusb/cd and back up your data before you do anything [01:39] cannotbootintowi, gparted === SonikkuAmerica is now known as Unismurfhedgehog [01:41] OK so right now im on the ubuntu 14.10 installation, and I have a liveusb of that. I don't have any data on ubuntu installation that Im on right now, so thats not a problem [01:41] can someone ban ubottu for flooding :( [01:41] Left_Turn: no, because she's removing bans under the direction of a chanop (me) [01:41] oh :) [01:42] what Im worried about is messing up boot sequences and not being to boot into even 1 OS [01:43] hi, how can I disable system beep sound in gnome and ubuntu 14.04? thanks. [01:43] OK, more info from gparted: I see 3 partitions: 512 MB /boot/efi, 923 GB ext4 /, and 8 GB swap [01:43] does that mean my Windows installation was overwritten? [01:46] does anyone know about chromium not using gtk preference for fonts in the UI ... 14.04 [01:46] is anyone familiar with 14.04 + x11vnc not displaying anything when you remote in? you can interact with the desktop so the connection is made, but the remote session is just a black screen [01:47] http://hastebin.com/jufurariga.vhdl [01:47] I am having problems installing or uninstalling any package. (14.04) [01:47] What is the best way to fix this? [01:47] Anyone has any idea why I can't build the ati packages in 14.04 http://paste.ubuntu.com/7280249/ ? or run .run or files without extensions as a program in nautilus after changing the permission? [01:48] Kamaris: my first thought would be to try the -noxdamage argument, used to need it a long time ago, although I just checked my script on 14.04 and don't have it enabled [01:50] trism: already using that flag :( [01:51] Is Ubuntu-desktop suitable for server use if the server has an active monitor? [01:51] hi [01:51] Kamaris: what desktop out of curiosity [01:51] unity [01:51] plase I'm new in the maas [01:51] Kamaris: same here, hmm [01:52] the only additional caveat is that i'm running this in virtualbox [01:52] could some body explain a little about maas [01:52] so not sure if that might be the limiting factor [01:52] Diamondcite: Any Linux is suitable for server use, but a desktop oriented release usually takes a lot more work to secure, and runs a lot of processes that might slow down server processes. [01:52] Diamondcite I keep reading that "true" servers are command-line driven but that may just be neckbeard talk ... [01:52] !maas|jf__ [01:52] jf__: Metal as a Service is a dynamic server provisioning service for scalability. See more about it at https://maas.ubuntu.com. [01:52] yes [01:52] i wanted to get a base install up and see what issues i had before i put it in my main system [01:52] Hello [01:53] I just install ubuntu server14.04 lts [01:53] but I dont understand some concept [01:53] !server|jf__ [01:53] jf__: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Thar 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server [01:53] jitsusama: it like to say any car can do la Manche [01:53] jf__: just ask [01:53] I am settign up an ubuntu 14.04 desktop from disk image adn it didnt detect that I have windows 8. So what now? How can I install ubuntu along side of my windows 8 if Ubuntu doesnt detect windows duting the install? [01:53] qin: lol, they could, just might not win any races :) [01:54] I read all documents [01:54] but I have a troubbles specific [01:54] sorry for the typos [01:54] Sonikku [01:54] !uefi | JohnDory [01:54] JohnDory: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [01:55] well I want to know what is exactly a cluster [01:55] we are talking about maas [01:55] johndropper, That was for you the bots uefi info. [01:55] jf__: a cluster is a group [01:55] jf__: yeah, a group of servers that generally share information. IE: Memory, disk, processors... [01:55] ok i wll check it out [01:55] a group by what [01:55] Sonikku you helo doesn it work at all ! See the rsult alive : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7280359/ [01:55] ok [01:56] but this are virtual machines [01:56] ? [01:56] jf__: a computer or server cluster is a group of computers [01:56] jf__: https://maas.ubuntu.com/ [01:56] VMs could be a cluster. [01:56] Kinda weird to do that, but possible. [01:56] ^ a cluster of virtual machines [01:56] jf__: its relevant to whatever you are using them for [01:56] jf__: if you want/need a cluster of machines (or whatever) then its relevant [01:56] Generally a "true" cluster is a bunch of servers that synchronize their memory, have access to the same disk space, and are able to share process load amongst themselves. [01:57] :-D [01:57] It's like having lots of CPUs on one computer, but instead of on one, they are on many. [01:57] jf__: i suggest *not* going and finding a bunch of terms to try and define about or around linux, but rather, just try and get a task, or a problem, and address or solve it for yourself [01:57] ok, so I have virtual box on my ubuntu server 14.04 [01:57] and is running centos [01:59] so Must I have setting a dhcp servers in my vm centos [02:00] could you describe the topology about the network [02:00] for maas work [02:01] ? [02:02] Uhhmmm.. What does maas mean to you? [02:02] metal as a service is like to get servers on the cloud [02:03] Are you wanting to setup a maas controller on a VM? [02:03] not [02:04] I have installed on laptop [02:04] Are you trying to setup a server to speak to a maas controller? [02:04] I'm new in this [02:04] but I have a lot questions [02:04] jf__: just ask, with details [02:04] jf__: and please read https://maas.ubuntu.com/ [02:05] I'm not really familiar with maas myself, but I do understand distributed architectures fairly well. [02:05] ye I read that, thats right I'm here [02:05] Funny enough, Ubuntu maas is exactly like a product I was planning on developing. [02:05] jf__: ok.. just ask.. are you trying to setup a server to speak to a maas controler? [02:05] Stinko that they beat me to it :) [02:05] yes [02:06] I have 0 nodes [02:06] jf__: then, elaborate about that, and try the #ubuntu-server community [02:06] what is nodes [02:06] nodes are servers that are a part of the cluster. [02:06] I'm eating an instance cup noodle and it tastes good. [02:07] From a quick skim-read, it looks like maas allows you to have a bunch of servers that you can dynamically load apps on to. [02:07] The servers end up not being customized entities, and more like resources that you can put apps onto and move apps around on without worrying about the individual server details. [02:08] So, to use maas, you want a group of servers, set them up with the basic middle-ware, setup a separate maas controller, and then use that controller to push out application services dynamically. [02:09] hello, I have installed ubuntu 14.04 on my new laptop, toshiba satellite M50D A 103. Every thing is working gr8 and I'm really excited. But FN keys are not working. Any idea!! [02:09] and I'm new on ubuntu. [02:09] ok [02:09] jf__: Is that making much sense? [02:09] in this moment Iam configuration [02:10] Do you have a bunch of servers laying around? [02:10] kamalk: they may not work.. you can try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LaptopSpecialKeys [02:10] Anyone know by chance where I can change the php zend opcache settings on 14.04? [02:11] I dont have anything [02:11] Then maas isn't really for you. [02:11] just i want to learn about cloud computing [02:11] and I install ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop [02:11] Ahh... maas isn't really cloud computing. [02:11] jf__: then, you dont want to try and control a bunch of servers with it [02:11] It's a way to treat physical servers like a cloud, without them being a cloud. [02:12] jf__: you can run a server, and learn about hosting.. a physical one ^ or one in virtualbox [02:12] and I am try out [02:12] jf__: start simple.. read about, and setup something like wordpress for yourself locally [02:12] Cloud computing is the idea of being able to setup a server without having any physical assets. [02:13] maas is the idea of being able to easily setup servers with the flexibility of the cloud, while using real physical assets. [02:13] For either option, you really need cashola. [02:14] Listen to holstein; if you can learn server administration, cloud stuff will come naturally when you're in a situation to use it. === Anarchic` is now known as Anarchic [02:15] and, listen to jitsusama .. has obvious first hand experience with the services you are trying to learn about.. [02:15] anybody have this same problem ? Tab doesn't focus search results anymore when ur logged in with chrome/chromium [02:15] jf__: start simple.. try and setup something you need,a nd learn about it [02:16] ok, but in the page ubuntu, say [02:16] I'll just leave this here for anyone wondering. I upgraded 12.04 to 14.04 a few hours ago and everything works perfectly. I lost VLC, nd nothing else that I can notice. [02:16] ubuntu 14.04 is cloud server [02:16] cabbage4th reinstall vlc ? [02:16] with maas and juju [02:16] jf__: ? [02:17] jf__: dont worry about terms and names.. "cloud" is nothing you need to worry about [02:17] jf__ ubuntu is NOT a cloud server, it can be deployed as a cloud server with MAAS [02:17] A really nice way to start thinking virtually is VMs. [02:17] cfhowlett: reinstalling now. Just informing the channel just in case someone asks later. :D [02:17] jf__: just try and setup a server you need.. a file server.. ssh.. wordpress.. photo management.. [02:17] anyone have an issue using windows rdp in ubuntu 13.10 [02:17] no issue in 12 [02:17] Setup your box as a VM host. [02:17] Have it run next to nothing. [02:18] Have everything else run as VMs. [02:18] Create separate VMs for different purposes. [02:18] ok, but the idea is to get an experience with cloud computing [02:18] A router VM, a web server VM, a fileserver VM, ... [02:18] jf__: ? [02:18] so I need install and configuration a cloud server [02:18] jf__: ok.. setup a server, friend.. that *is* cloud computing [02:18] You can't get experience with cloud computing without paying for cloud services. [02:19] AWS &etc cost bucks. [02:19] jf__: "cloud" is just that.. not there. but, "up in the cloud" on a server [02:19] anyone familiar w/ xrd [02:19] xrdp [02:19] And honestly, they aren't all that sexy anyways. [02:19] jf__: you'll start with what you have, learning about a server [02:19] or remote from win [02:19] the idea is become a provider cloud computing [02:20] Ok jf__, that's a whole different story then. [02:20] or what do you think about owncloud [02:20] You'll need to get a hold of some physical services. [02:20] jf__: you need a server community.. [02:20] blah, servers. [02:20] jf__: owncloud is just a server [02:20] owncloud doesn't use cloud computing. [02:20] Yeah, owncloud is a way to synchronize files to a single server. [02:20] jf__: it does what it does.. and thats all. its not "cloud computing" or serving [02:21] I think we need a cloud jar. [02:21] jf__: owncloud is a dropbox competitor, with other featuers.. and you can run it, for free, and see about it, firsthand [02:21] jf__: setting up an owncloud server would be a *great* way to learn [02:21] !berg | linuxnoob5 [02:21] Everytime a company comes up with a new "cloud" service, they need to put $1,000,000 into the jar. [02:21] Because they are muddying the waters! [02:22] sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-plugins-extra compiz-plugins-main [02:22] is this safe for the latest 14.04? [02:22] jf__: cloud services are 1,001 different concepts called by the same name. [02:22] yes [02:22] There is cloud storage, cloud computing, cloud blah. [02:22] They are all completely different from each other. [02:22] yeah? [02:22] it wont break anything will it? [02:23] "cloud" is just "up in the cloud".. not local [02:23] so maas is like cloud servers [02:23] jf__: no [02:23] jf__: maas is what it said it was [02:23] Ok, let me try to find a better way to explain cloud servers. [02:23] And just to re-iterate, cloud servers and cloud computing are different ideas as well. [02:23] jf__: it makes it easier to configure machines [02:24] jf__: you dont want maas. you want to choose a task and run it. like, and owncloud server === sync is now known as sync350 [02:24] Cloud servers makes it easy to roll out an application without having to worry about server stuff. [02:24] jf__: have you setup an owncloud server? [02:24] jf__: have you setup wordpress? [02:24] jf__: have you setup just a simple LAMP stack? [02:24] Say, you want to start up a web server, you order a cloud service from Amazon, and they give you a web portal where you can roll out your service to "x" virtual servers. [02:24] yes I did [02:25] You configure your application, with its software and data files, and then tell Amazon how much computing power to give it. [02:25] jf__: these are a little offtopic here, but, i learned a lot from using them http://www.turnkeylinux.org/ ..you can run them live, and see how they are configured [02:25] just a owncloud server [02:25] They have an architecture that will spread out your load across multiple physical servers. [02:25] They just clustering technology, and fancy software to make this transparent to you. [02:26] Now, maas allows you to present that kind of interface to your own customers. You have a bunch of physical servers, and you can provide a slick interface to dropping application services unto them. [02:26] jf__: Have you thought about installing devstack on your system? [02:26] anyone know what this is http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-make-your-dual-boot-better-with-burg\ [02:27] I was watching [02:27] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1XH0SQARgo [02:27] Hello [02:27] jf__: Yeah, I saw that one too. [02:28] linuxnoob5, Burg is grub 2 with graphic loader choices [02:28] You still need the servers. Someone buys them, installs them, and then you can dynamically load services on to them. At least, that's how I understand it. [02:29] jf__: yeah, maas is something that helps you when you want to set up a "cloud" on several servers. It is essentially a way to quickly install an OS on a hardware box, so something like juju can come along and set up other services on it [02:29] ok [02:29] jseutter: Yeah, exactly. [02:29] well [02:30] DHCP, PXE & what not allow you to load OS images fast. [02:30] if you want create a entermprise [02:30] Then you use juju to dynamically allocate services. [02:30] jf__: so in this case, mass would install ubuntu on some hardware, juju would install the openstack services like nova, mysql, horizon, etc. Then at the end of it you would have your own running cloud [02:30] that offers iaas or saas [02:30] what will you do [02:31] Or you could use openstack or something instead of juju. [02:31] Beldar, how well do you know if it going to break my system -also i have just ubuntu installed [02:31] I would be thankful if anyone could answer my question. It's urgent at the moment. Ok, I have a project. I'm going to have a server with Ubuntu installed, and there will be another backup server identical to the main server. The clients initiate connections to the main server and get services, ideally using web requests. (static IP or domain name). If the main server goes down, the requests should be redirected to the backup serve === Unismurfhedgehog is now known as SonikkuAmerica [02:31] saas and iaas are another different concept. [02:32] Could someone give me an idea? :| [02:32] yes I know what do you need about saas or iaas [02:32] They can utilize the same technologies I guess, but it's not necessary. [02:32] SaaS just means that you host software for a company on your server. [02:33] Technically, a web site is SaaS. [02:33] Instead of the company needing a server running software X, you run it on your server, and give them access to it. [02:33] linuxnoob5, Depends on your skill set really, this area I know, others I don't, I work accordingly in each area. [02:34] That way, all they need to do is remotely access your server to use the software. Nothing (well sometimes a light client) needs to be installed on their machines. [02:34] jf__: you could use maas to unstall a specially configured os on real hardware and offer non-virtual hardware as a service, but at that point it doesn't fit what most people think of as "cloud computing" [02:34] Is anyone with networking/server background? Need help. :| [02:35] me desmotivaron [02:35] lol [02:35] user_____: sorry, you didn't really ask a question. Are you asking for input on what tools to use to make a setup like you described? === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [02:35] Yes, basically, is that supposed to be solved by ISP? [02:36] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing has a good run-down on a lot of this. [02:36] Clients will have the IP address of the main server. [02:36] If the main server goes down, clients have no way of communication to the server. [02:36] user_____: You want a load balancer in front. [02:36] hola [02:37] So the load balancer redirects the requests to the backup server if the main server is down? [02:37] A good load balancer can use various means to discern if a server is available or not, and if it isn't, it can redirect the request to another identical backup server. [02:37] Exactly. [02:37] Ah I see. Is that the only solution? [02:37] It can use something as simple as pings to detect if the remote server is down, a simple HTTP request, or be even craftier. [02:37] That's the solution that a service provider would generally use. [02:37] anybody have this same problem ? Tab doesn't focus search results anymore when ur logged in with chrome/chromium [02:37] The problem with load balancers is what if the load balancer fails. [02:37] somebody speak spanish [02:37] any ideas ? [02:37] Cool, so the clients connect to the load balancer right? [02:38] Yeah. [02:38] no spanish for me [02:38] They never know about the real servers. [02:38] The SSL certificates would be installed on the load balancer as well, if you're doing HTTPS. [02:38] who speak spanish [02:38] Hi All, recently I bought my HP Envy with Windows 8 preloaded. I have 1TB(sda) HDD and 32GB(sdb) SSD. For fast I installed my ubuntu on my sdb. Howcan I tell to my bios to bootfrom sdb? [02:38] ubottu: es [02:38] En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. [02:38] Cool [02:38] It would act as a proxy server basically. [02:38] And proxy your request appropriately depending on what server is available. [02:39] Is DNS resolution a solution as well? Could ISP handle that issue? [02:39] It can be. [02:39] But it depends upon the application. [02:39] Because what would happen if my load balancer goes down :| [02:39] For HTTP, not really. [02:39] Any one here? [02:39] It all depends how redundant you want to be. [02:39] Load balancers are pretty simple to cluster. [02:39] !patience > kumarat9pm [02:39] kumarat9pm, please see my private message [02:39] I see. [02:40] You could have them use VRRP upstream and when one fails, the other would take over the IP. [02:40] kumarat9pm: you'll as the bios maintainer [02:40] user_____: for an example of a load balancer, you could look at HAProxy. It is fairly simple by today's standards, but works well [02:40] Yeah, HAProxy supports a VRRP like operation. [02:40] I believe it does at least. [02:40] Noted. [02:40] holstein: thanks for reply. what is bios maintainer [02:40] unity bar intellihide? [02:41] http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45567380/how_to_install_Ubuntu_on_HP_Envy-4_ultrabook.pdf [02:41] hello everybody!!!! [02:41] By the way, how can I approach the DNS resolution method? [02:41] holstein: I followed above link and I am struk with step3 [02:41] Don't. [02:41] Is it something to do with ISP? [02:41] kumarat9pm - when u boot up, you should be able to press a key to enter the BIOS setup [02:41] DNS resolution was tried, and failed. [02:41] mse: I can go in to bios [02:41] then? [02:41] Ah I see [02:41] cool - then you wanna find the boot options [02:42] Ideally SRV records would be used, but I don't think any browsers support it. [02:42] bueno gracias a todos [02:42] And even then, you get nasty delays when the client is responsible for detecting a service as down. [02:42] thanks to all [02:42] jf__: You're welcome. Hopefully I was of some help. [02:42] Aha. [02:43] I am looking for an application like Geoenzo (or to get Wine play it) [02:43] kumarat9pm: elaboarate [02:43] user_____: don't worry about DNS, that is not part of the problem you want to solve. You want to have 1 ip address for the service, and if you have 2 proxy servers, have them sort out who has the ip address. [02:43] Try HAProxy, or even nginx with some VRRP in the back-ground. [02:43] Do I need to get a service from a third party for a load balancer? I [02:43] You can, but you don't have to. [02:43] So I have to install the load balancer in my premises? [02:44] You can roll your own, find a vendor, or find some SaaS provider ;) [02:44] Juju: how about some details on what it is? and what you are tyring to do? so i dont have to research that applications.. you can check in wineHQ about it [02:44] Ideally. [02:44] !wine [02:44] WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [02:44] hello :) [02:44] A10 Networks makes a nice load balancer. That's what my company uses. [02:44] Ok so, I will have to consider that my load balancer will have 100% availability? [02:45] If you make a pseudo cluster, you'll have pretty good availability. [02:45] Who is this for? [02:45] Some big company that can't deal with any down-time? [02:45] If so, use a load-balancer that is scalable and has super-quick failover. [02:45] It's for a research project, with 0 downtime. [02:45] with minimal cost maybe :) [02:45] hi question.. i use videos 3.10.1 do i need to download a file to play 720 hd mpeg? [02:46] holstein» geoenzo is an application to show in school-backgrounds how to draw with lines (geometry...). Wine doesn't support it yet, but it is an application really simple.. like PAINT... http://geoenzo.com/geoenzo/geoenzo.htm [02:46] I haven't seen anything that gives 0 downtime, but I think HAProxy would be a good cheap bet. [02:46] user_____: yes, if your service needs to be up all the time, your load balancer is a single point of failure. So you deal with that by having redundant load balancers. [02:46] Juju: how about tux paint, or gimp then.. or inkscape [02:46] user_____: the closer you get to 0 downtime, the more complex and expensive the solution gets [02:47] Yeah, get 4 machines, 2 load balancers and 2 servers. [02:47] Is load balancer costly? [02:47] Have the load balancers HA, and have the servers use a shared cache/database if possible. [02:47] An Open Source solution would cost you the price of a couple of cheap servers. [02:47] Ah ok, for the testing, I'm going to install in a laptop :) [02:47] holstein» i mean a simple application like Paint, not a simple tool like paint. I need to show how to do it with the rules... the compass.. etc [02:47] A 99.999% uptime solution would probably cost you a whole family of heart transplants. [02:48] Aha. [02:48] Juju: and you've tried inkscape? and gimpe? [02:48] holstein» yes, they don't show you the RULE and the Compass [02:48] I have never had an experience with a load balancer, let me google :) [02:49] Just remember, if you're application servers don't have shared memory, you could have web sessions broken. [02:49] It depends on whether you are using cookies for session tracking or not, and whether it's your database or memory cache that's keeping track of user sessions. [02:49] Ah, that's a good point. [02:49] user_____: commercial ones can be had for a few thousand each, if they don't need to handle much traffic. For starting out, you can try using a vm and set up the 4 machines in virtualbox or vmwore [02:49] Lol. [02:49] libvirt/qemu. [02:50] holstein» https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaqEm1GafTo <---- with the rule and the compass... step by step [02:50] VirtualBox is for whimps ;) [02:50] What I initially thought was, to shyncrhonize the backup server with the main server realtime. [02:50] Juju: should be lots of plugins for both.. they are well suppoerte.d. [02:50] jitsusama: heh, good point [02:50] user_____: Yeah, that's a start. [02:50] PHP likes to keep sessions in memory. [02:50] That will kill sessions if you have a server failover. [02:50] Juju: in not interested in watching a video, but, i would just try it in wine... have you tried it in wine? you can run windows in virtualbox/vm or ask them for a native linux app [02:51] Oops. Lol. [02:51] If you can keep your sessions in the database, and the databases are replicated, then you have a shared memory store in effect. [02:51] That way you should be able to survive a failover, unless they were right in the middle of a transaction [02:51] To handle transaction failovers, you need literal shared memory. [02:51] I am booting in legacy mode but ubuntu will still not detect my operating system so I can install along side windows [02:51] holstein» this was i just asked the first time!!! have you read me at all?? [02:51] Once again, it depends how resilient you want to be. [02:51] Perhaps I might be able to initiate a session again. [02:51] Redundancy and resiliency are separate concepts. [02:52] Yes, you could. [02:52] I am looking for an application like Geoenzo (or to get Wine play it) [02:52] What type of traffic will it be handling? [02:52] greetings. what does /etc/pam.d/common-sessions do? [02:52] By the way, what company do you work for? If you don;t mind. :) So I could tell my supervisor ;) [02:52] Like, what sort of application. [02:52] Juju: as a volunteer, i did read what you posted.. have you tried it frist hand yoursefl in wine? [02:52] Lol, I'm a VoIP specialist. [02:52] any help? [02:52] Aha. [02:52] I work for a major Telco in Canada. [02:52] holstein» yes, I tried it. It doesnt work. [02:52] But I've done a lot of server work in past lives. [02:52] It's for a tracking systemm. Say, taxi companies could send coordinates of vechiles to a central system. [02:53] Juju: well, try here of the wine channel with specific questions, if you like [02:53] company can see the vehicles realtime. [02:53] what causes cryptsetup to go into the initramfs [02:53] it's an example. [02:53] holstein» ok. [02:53] Juju: otherwise, try adding a rule to gimp, inkscape or libreoffice draw [02:53] for some reason it refuses to open my encrypted partitions [02:53] I lost access to the GUI while upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04, will I be able to finish without being able to see any prompts (such as the keep or overwrite ones)? I still have access to the other tty sessions, but can't get the GUI back up. [02:53] Ok, so resiliency isn't as important as redundancy I'd say. [02:53] Not a lot of transactional content, mostly just read only access. [02:53] holstein» ok. thanks for the suggestions [02:53] Load balancers should be enough for you. [02:54] Juju: i realize it can be frustrating, but, linux is not doing anything to prevent that application from running natively.. [02:54] Juju: you might also find an online server, or html5 type thing that you could pull up in any web brwoser that would address your needs [02:54] Yep, oh I forgot, we plan for 1 million trackers. [02:54] Hokey. [02:55] Ideally, 1 million trackers will send coordinates etc. within a minute. [02:55] How will they update your system? === STiK_ is now known as STiK [02:55] They send data through tcp or http. [02:55] Right from the Taxi cab? [02:55] Yep. [02:55] Ideally, 1 million taxi cabs? :) [02:55] holstein: my system is uefi boot.. so I do not see my SSD(sdb) in boot order [02:55] holstein» ... i know the fault is of Linux... what the hell? [02:55] So they'll use satellite to give live GPS coordinates straight to your server? [02:56] Or will they just use a smartphone app? [02:56] holstein» hahaha.. it's a joke [02:56] Not just taxi cabs,, anything, as long as there is a tracker. [02:56] . [02:56] oh no no, [02:56] !uefi | kumarat9pm [02:56] kumarat9pm: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [02:56] hm, I managed to get apt get into a loop where it can't upgrade initscripts, upstart and ifupdown because they are each waiting for the other to be configured. Is there some way I can fix it without trashing my system? [02:57] We don't consider the hardware side. As long as a tracker, say, a smartphone app, a hardware tracker could send data through internet to our server, it should work. [02:57] kumarat9pm: i try and purchase with linux support in mind, so i havent had to deal with it personalluy, but you should have an option to disable what is giving you trouble.. though, that might "Break" windows [02:57] Groovy. [02:57] Once again, you won't have to worry about keeping state. [02:57] They send an update, it's acknowledged, and it's done. [02:57] holstein: I am least bother about windows.. [02:58] Yep, only thing is I will uniquely identify who sent it. [02:58] so no problem if I break M$ windows.. [02:58] If an update fails because you were in the middle of transitioning servers, then it will work on the next try. [02:58] cool. [02:58] I just upgraded to 14.04 and I am having an issue with flash on chromium and was wonder if there is a fix for it [02:58] You just don't want them to have to change their config everytime a server changes activity due to maintenance or catastrophy. [02:58] So load balancing is the way to go? [02:58] jitsusama: I see what you mean, like the system will fix itself quickly when there is a failover... [02:58] RedGod: i use flash from chrome.. not the linux flash that is older [02:58] Yeah, geo-diverse, with geo-diverse application servers. [02:59] Yeah. [02:59] RedGod: Are you using flashplugin-installer or the pepflashplugin-installer from the PPA? [02:59] I'm telco, so we always think about this sort of stuff. [02:59] I blow up a building, telephone services keep working. [02:59] Cool, ok. [02:59] hey guys quick question: i installed 14.04 in VirtualBox to mess about with the ubuntuSDK but openGL is not installed / is not working. How should i go about getting that up and running? [02:59] Cheap servers, at 2 sites with a decent internet uplink. [02:59] Load Balancer 1 and Application Server 1 at location A. [02:59] RedGod: switch to system flash if the included is broken [03:00] Load Balancer 2 and Application Server 2 at location B. [03:00] SonikkuAmerica: flashplugin-installer [03:00] Database could run on a third pair of redundant servers, or not. [03:00] I just got motivated :) [03:00] Actually, I'd use 2 physical servers. [03:00] And use VMs. [03:00] That way you're cheap, simple, and flexible. [03:01] 3 VMs each. One for load balancing, one for web server, one for database server. [03:01] RedGod: Make sure you [ sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ] after you install. [03:01] RedGod: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/install-pepper-flash-player-for.html [03:01] That way, on OS upgrades &etc, you don't have to mess up any more than one service. [03:01] Ah. [03:01] Any suggestions for this: I lost access to the GUI while upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04, will I be able to finish without being able to see any prompts (such as the keep or overwrite ones)? I still have access to the other tty sessions, but can't get the GUI back up. [03:01] The host OS should do nothing but NTP, Syslog and Libvirt. [03:01] The guest OS's do everything else. [03:02] That way, you should almost never have to upgrade the host. [03:02] SonikkuAmerica: everything is up to date [03:02] Jammerx2: as any user? no GUI? no unity? gnome? what? [03:02] holsteinve it a shot: thanks I will gi [03:02] That means I have only one database that both the main and backup server connect to? [03:02] holstein: thanks ill give it a shot [03:02] 2 databases. [03:03] one on each server. [03:03] Replicated. [03:03] They will be your main "data" store. [03:03] Ah good, same as I thought. The main server will syncrhonize with the backup server in real time, right? [03:03] Yeah. [03:03] Postgresql is supposed to be really good for that. [03:04] Using their slon replication daemon. [03:04] Nice. [03:04] holstein: Can't start unity when I try, unity-panel-service job doesn't exist [03:04] Postgresql is what we've thought already :) [03:04] Good thinking then :) [03:04] We were thinking about big data as well. [03:05] Analytics? [03:05] What time of research project is this? :) [03:05] blah, type. [03:05] Jammerx2: i would be looking into the graphics drivers that maybe were not removed before the upgrade.. i would even consider vesa driver temporarily if i need/want a GUI to fix [03:05] is there any security vulnerabilities if you don't encrypt the root partition? [03:05] Oh well, we should be able to view reports :) [03:05] assuming home/swap are encrypted [03:06] morning to all [03:07] morning [03:08] user_____: Do I have you on the right path now? [03:08] does the hide guest account and usernames hide trick on lightdm.conf still work on trusty? [03:08] How exactly would I do that holstein, I'm currently on my phone as I don't have a computer nearby (with anything other than a shell) [03:08] Yes, I copeid the chat for further analysis :) [03:08] Groovy. [03:09] Btw, thanks a lot, I don't think I thought of load balancers before ;) [03:09] Jammerx2: well, you woudl confirm that you had proprietary drivers in place that could be broken.. and remove them.. you can add a custom xorg.conf.. you'll need to be at the box to try these things === Jan11 is now known as ON1 [03:09] Load balancers make it so that users don't have to re-config when servers change. Shared data-stores means that whichever back-end server is active, it doesn't matter, they can still handle traffic. [03:09] Jammerx2: as some point, a fresh install would be an option for me.. since it wouldn not take long [03:09] The other benefit to load balancers is in the name, you can spread your load across both servers. [03:10] Yep, thanks a lot. [03:10] Btw, when are you available here? [03:10] Randomly. [03:10] I just started up IRC again in the last few days. [03:10] I can PM you my email though. [03:10] Oh ok, that would be cool. [03:11] Is it difficult to recover from an interrupted upgrade? I have no idea how far along it is and want to attempt a restart [03:11] If you end up going public based upon my help, I'll expect kick-backs ;) [03:12] i need som ehelp [03:12] we all do [03:12] I am trying to install ubuntu along side windows 8 and it will not detect my windows8 [03:12] any help? [03:13] I tried this and it still doesnt work https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [03:13] i really want this to work [03:13] any help? [03:14] Jammerx2: Is it a release upgrade? [03:14] JohnDory: did you disable secureboot? [03:14] yes [03:14] Upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04 [03:14] johndropper: and ubuntu 14.04 doesnt see your win8 partition? [03:15] correct [03:15] ubuntu 14.04 yes [03:15] doesnt see windows 8 [03:15] johndropper: any other options in bios could prevent it? [03:15] I loked adn I dont see anything === Garheade is now known as Garheade|AFK [03:16] I am now botting legacy [03:16] booting [03:16] still doesnt see it [03:16] johndropper: maybe ask in ##hardware first, what steps to take for your computer to disable secureboot [03:16] Hello. Anybody up at these hours? [03:16] HI there how are you I got ubuntu lts4 this system i install it few time.. I can not find what is the reason off limition off virult port [03:16] dipseydoodle: this channel hekps worlwide at any times :p [03:16] i can not connect more then 5 device [03:16] Cool! [03:17] any help? [03:17] johndropper: if ubuntu doesnt sees w8, something prevents it from bios [03:18] I am looking at creating a flavour based off Ubuntu, specifically for myself but I will give it to anybody who wants it. So far I have the current stable amd64 iso mounted and just looked at all my installed packages. This is gonna be fun and I have a few questions, that I could use some help with. [03:18] hi [03:18] so I guess my bios wont allow it huh? [03:18] Any idea where do i need to go and icnrease the tty port limition [03:18] johndropper: you need to take a deeper look i think [03:19] ive gone balls deep with no luck sir [03:19] johndropper: i would erase w8 once and for good, and single boot ubuntu :p [03:19] quick question, i was going to edit the grub2/images page because there is a syntax error in the one command, but it is locked, who should i contact about this? [03:19] g thanks [03:19] johndropper, This thread gives some good info. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 [03:19] anyone use awk_ [03:19] ? [03:20] lucarg: best is to shoot your issue on it [03:20] I'm sure this is a simple question, but I simply want to remove the GUI, from the cd, how do I go about doing that? [03:20] it is just a simple "-V" versus a "-v" but one gives you the version, what they meant, and one compiles with verbose. [03:20] dipseydoodle: you want an ubuntu cd without unity to install for other users? [03:21] i have a .txt that have text and number i need extract number and save in another file [03:21] dipseydoodle: or you mean a textbase setup? [03:21] lotuspychje No I want a graphical setup I just don't want a gui at boot [03:22] I just installed 14.04 on an asus laptop and I am getting no sound out of my laptop. if I load up pulse volume it says that internal speakers are unavailable and that headphones are plugged in. If I select the speakers it works until I reboot. any idea what I should do to fix this? [03:22] dipseydoodle: well unity comes in by default, not sure if there's a trick to that [03:22] wont work guys sorry. mark this as solved [03:22] Ok. Is there a way to remove a package completely? [03:22] i gave it my all [03:22] lol [03:22] !sound | jc_ [03:22] jc_: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

[04:24] davidrsmorris, thanks for the reply [04:24] NosecuentA [04:24] u should still be able [04:24] i have a stock 14.04 with unity [04:24] to ssh to ur box [04:24] even if the ui is dead [04:24] (I say 2.0 because I remember Chrome only changed its appearance when I messed around with the 2.0 part of my theme) [04:24] mmm [04:24] check ur router's clientlist [04:24] yea [04:24] to find the ip of ur box [04:24] and then ssh to it [04:24] i spend two hours [04:25] i know there are some issues ... but i thought they were resolved in this version [04:25] trying to recover the graphic system [04:25] i will change theme and see what happens [04:25] now I installed the Ubuntu 12.04.1 version [04:25] Version of chromium or GTK? Does the new chromium use the 3.0 theme? [04:25] but i don't know how to install the ati driver in order to make it run properly [04:25] anyone have any suggestions? [04:26] This is my Graphic Card: [04:26] 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV610 video device [Radeon HD 2400 PRO] [04:26] davidrsmorris, i was hoping so [04:26] to what? [04:26] any one ever had issue with Issues with multiple USB card readers attached .. in ubuntu [04:26] i know they made changes with how they get fonts from gtk [04:27] D: [04:28] Ha, fonts can be evil. one time I tried to install DIN fonts and broke my Unity. Switched to Awesome. [04:28] hmm [04:28] u may have to manually install the driver [04:28] as in, compile the kernel module [04:28] but, this is assuming uv exhausted all options [04:28] and failing that [04:28] it could be indeed that the version of ubuntu u installed doesnt work with it [04:28] use lxde [04:28] in which case u should submit a bug report [04:28] yikes [04:29] well when i change font through dconf or unity tweak .. it doesn't change chromium [04:29] unity is a disaster [04:29] so is gnome3 [04:29] so my global menu just disappeared [04:29] everything was fine with gnome2.3 [04:29] anybody here can help me? [04:29] and everything gui related is lagging [04:30] NosecuentA: just try the open driver first then.. [04:30] !ati > NosecuentA [04:30] NosecuentA, please see my private message [04:30] any idea how i can find what's responsible? [04:30] lagbox, I got tired of limited tweaking in chrome and ended up installing firefox with slimmish... if you like webkit, you might want to look at uzbl-tabbed. [04:30] i like chromium ... just this font issue and url bar issue is like a ... really bad addition that is unneeded [04:31] marlencrabapple [04:31] i assumed the terrible lag had something to do with my gpu, but since the global menu disappeared i'm thinking its software related [04:31] sometimes gui lag [04:31] i think they are trying to make this nicer on high dpi screens or something and touch interfaces ... but that just ruins my desktop experience [04:31] occurs because [04:31] graphics drivers r not installed [04:31] u should check dmesg [04:31] to see if graphics drivers r loaded [04:31] i'm using the proprietary drivers [04:31] what r the specs of ur computer? [04:31] is it old? [04:31] not at all [04:31] Ubottu, i did it but i don't see anything [04:31] NosecuentA: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:32] NosecuentA: ubuntu is a bot [04:32] this is definately a software issue [04:32] it only appeared after over 24 hours of usage [04:32] holstein, i tried it [04:32] NosecuentA: ok. [04:32] but i need the propietary drivers [04:32] !nomodeset | NosecuentA [04:32] NosecuentA: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [04:32] i had a similar issue on windows a year ago on the same GPU [04:32] isn't there like a gtk2 pref util ? [04:32] Hello. Is the an easy way to install Cinnamon 2.2 in Ubuntu 14.04? [04:32] NosecuentA: no, you are assuming you need those [04:32] nop [04:32] i came from Windows xp [04:33] but i'm pretty sure it had to do with chrome canary leaking memory [04:33] i use the same pc to play counter strike and i always get 100 fps [04:33] gpu memory to be exact [04:33] with the open source driver, i just got 60 fps [04:33] hmmm [04:33] NosecuentA: windows support is irrelevant [04:33] but yeah, my global menu went missing, so i think this is a unity bug [04:33] is not the same, the engine of the game isn't so smooth [04:34] you can't play [04:34] NosecuentA: the manufacturers are always welcome to support linux, and are more and more these days.. but, you will need to be comfortable with compromise, or use what the manufacturer intendes [04:34] https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx [04:34] Look [04:34] I have ubuntu 12.04.1 [04:34] I use 3.2 kernel [04:34] and Xorg 1.11.3 [04:34] davidrsmorris, where specifically is the gtk2 font set compared to gtk3 ? [04:34] the last driver of ati was legacy 13.1 (that supports my card) [04:34] NosecuentA: sure. use it then [04:35] and i fill all the requirement. [04:35] i'm using Ubuntu GNOME, and i noticed there are no longer icons by default on the desktop. how do i get them back? id like my desktop files to appear on top of the wallpaper. [04:35] NosecuentA: but, you should try the open one first [04:35] for once in my life i'm pissed off that htop isn't showing any processes using an abnormal amount of cpu [04:35] NosecuentA: you may have to run 12.04 for that [04:35] or memory for that matter [04:35] everything seems fine on paper [04:35] marlencrabapple, lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' [04:35] what does that tell you? [04:35] in 12.04 i had 3.11.0.9 kernel [04:35] Kernel driver in use: nvidia [04:35] and Xorg 1.14 :/ [04:36] trust me, the problem isn't between the chair and the keyboard [04:36] NosecuentA: so, you have all the facts there, friend [04:36] this is definitely a software issue [04:36] lagbox, ~/.themes/[theme]/gtk-2.0/gtkrc [04:36] howabout trying to regenerate a new xorg.conf (and yes, I know technically you don't nead one anymore) [04:37] me? [04:37] Well honestly, i have my doubts with it. [04:37] i already know rebooting will "fix" the issue [04:37] Can you check the website and tell me if 'will' work for me? [04:37] NosecuentA: ask the manufacturer what driver is "best", and use whatever the driver requires [04:37] i just want to know whats causing this so i can file a bug report or something [04:37] my english is not so good and maybe i'm missing some importan information [04:38] NosecuentA: i just use what works first hand.. i try the open ones first, then go from there [04:38] hallo [04:38] I updated to 14.04 but my bootloader still says beta. Is there a reason for that? [04:38] strangely enough i did not have this issue on 12.04 [04:38] was geht :) [04:38] NosecuentA: you are just expecting it to work like it did in windows, and it may not do that.. you were not promised that [04:39] yeah offcourse not, but will work better than the open source driver [04:39] german bro [04:39] would it help if i said that i'm experiencing 10-15 second freezes during certain transitions [04:40] like unminimizing a window [04:40] or opening a dialog [04:40] during which i can't move my mouse onto my second screen [04:40] davidrsmorris, im using the ambiance from 14.04 [04:40] NosecuentA: not necessarily, friend.. try the open one first [04:40] Just installed 14.04, what a buzz-kill [04:41] looks the same to me. But it's great that you now can have the menu in the windows instead of on the top of the screen. [04:41] right now i'm haphazardly killing chrome background processes [04:41] no mention of font in that gtkrc file [04:41] any reason why the bootloader still says beta with 14.04? [04:41] When it comes to UI, windows still has it. [04:41] and each time the "are you sure" dialog pops up [04:41] i'm stuck for ~10 seconds [04:41] !ot | shirox [04:41] shirox: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[04:47] he logs in and just gets background nothing else in unity [04:47] holstein my unity is broken [04:47] lagbox, is that a gtk theme? Either way, you should install one to your .icons before you start changing (and breaking) it. [04:47] i rebuilt from source and fixed what needed change, was fine [04:48] hey bro, I have the ISO file for the virtual box have the [04:48] then i shutdown and power up and now unity doesnt load [04:48] MaxSan: undo the changes you made [04:48] how? [04:48] the changes work fine [04:48] they reloaded right away and were fine [04:48] MaxSan, Is compiz running? [04:48] I need the iso file for virtualbox?

[04:55] Ah nope. Here's the hypothetical scenario: I have a main server machine with ubuntu installed. I have another backup server machine which is identical to the main server. I need the requests made to the main server be redirected to the backup server if the main server is down. jitsusama suggested the use of Load Balancers. Just got a question related to it. [04:55] MaxSan: use the default build of unity, in the official repos [04:55] MaxSan: otherwise, you need to ask whoever is maintaining your version for support [04:56] nobody is fixing this lol [04:56] i changed a single line [04:56] Anyone has an idea?

[04:56] MaxSan: right.. thats why i suggested changing it back.. undo what you did that broke your system [04:56] must I do that make once, or running the later even without usb stick [04:57] tnk: hope its not a hard drive failure.. whats the system doing now? [04:57] i know what I done has not caused the issue im around 98.5% sure [04:57] its a config thing with unity being confused on what its loading [04:57] holstein, i'm still in the 13.10 initial session.. [04:57] and bails out [04:57] user_____, ubuntu doesnt come with anything like that that im aware of. therefore third party or general #linux [04:57] i want to reset it basically [04:57] holstein: [04:57] ^^ [04:57] ^^ [04:57] MaxSan: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/how-to-reset-compiz-and-unity-in-ubuntu.html [04:58] next-generation: you can install virtualbox guest additions from the repo. no usb or iso needed [04:58] user_____: or google, load balance ubuntu ;) [04:59] holstein, i tried dpkg --configure -a but it went error unable to access dpkg status area.. read only file system..

[05:02] user_____: its a very niche issue so prob no experts here [05:03] holstein, what is the error with the readonly? why's it doing that? why'd those two p ackages fail first? [05:03] tnk: sometimes i consider that setup and reconfig easier, and the files need be backed up regardless,.. since that drive *will* fail. they all do [05:03] holstein, didn't understand that.. ?? [05:04] tnk: i mean, a resintall takes about 8 minutes.. i might fight with that error for hours [05:04] I'll try it first with a USB stick [05:04] tnk: otherwise, just take them in order [05:04] tnk: what exact errors and when.. from what..

[05:27] shirox: you do *whatever* it takes to get "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to complete without error [05:27] alright, thanks for the help :) [05:27] so i installed 14.04 on my win 8 64bit machine. it installed fine, i booted to windows to get some files, and my computer rebooted and now grub2 will not recognize the windows loader. ubuntu reads the information, however not being able to get into the windows drive is not an option. [05:28] shirox, holstein is on the right track, I'm just checking what's in the sources.list and sources.list.d the .d is the ppa's. [05:28] !uefi ? emmetea [05:28] holstein: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:29] !uefi > emmetea [05:29] emmetea, please see my private message [05:29] maybe its related to secure boot, and something windows is expecting that is not in place anymore, emmetea [05:29] emmetea: did windows *ever* boot with grub? [05:29] thank you. i'll check that out, certain explains why it booted once fine [05:29] yes, once, right after the install [05:31] Hello all, I have Ubuntu 13.10. I want to disable touchpad while typing, I tried the system setting "Disable touchpad while typing", but it does not work. I also tried syndaemon, but it locks the touchpad, I can only control the pointer and cannot scroll or tap using touchpad (http://www.webupd8.org/2009/11/ubuntu-automatically-disable-touchpad.html), any idea? [05:32] Hello I just installed ubuntu 14.04 and was wondering what typed of "antivirus" or "firewall" type stuff I should generally be using when downloading, surfing or torrenting? [05:32] other than gufw [05:32] !av > shahan [05:32] shahan, please see my private message [05:33] ok guys i really screwed up [05:37] how do I refresh unity in 14.04? [05:37] the scaling option is being weird, the one for window controls, i like it a lot, but it won't change after the first time i set it [05:38] shahan: try http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/how-to-reset-compiz-and-unity-in-ubuntu.html === Damian is now known as Guest90620 [05:42] is upgrading the system while in xfce a problem? [05:43] holstein: thanks [05:44] still can't get this chromium issue worked out [05:45] So I managed to the upgrade finished, it seems to have corrupted some of my user config files though (couldn't even login at first). I reset the .Xauthority and .config/dconf/user, and can now login but any changes I make to settings are instantly reverted. [05:47] holstein: I don't have that error message any more. But how do I make sure I've updated the system fully to 14.04? [05:47] apt-get upgrade does nothing [05:48] shirox: thanks, i now know it's out [05:48] just delete your life [05:48] sudo apt-get update [05:48] sudo apt-get upgrade [05:48] shirox: "lsb_release -a" in terminal will show you your version [05:48] If I want my system to execute a script every bootup is /etc/rc.local the place to specify it?? [05:48] johndropper: sorry, i can't believe you after you asked to delete life and gave wrong advice [05:49] johndropper: apt-get upgrade alone doesn't update to a next major release, iirc [05:49] it says 14.04 trusty .. but as I understood it, my version upgrade canceled in the middle [05:49] shirox: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade should bring you current [05:49] holstein: better :-) [05:50] sudo apt-get upgrade life [05:50] "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." <--- I don't believe it :p [05:50] gry: :) [05:50] jk [05:50] I did the holstein thing. [05:50] shirox: check your pakages manually, if you like [05:51] should I take its word for it when it says "0 not upgraded"? [05:51] shirox: not if you dont want to.. check manually if you swant [05:51] want* [05:51] what am I looking for? [05:51] what's the current xorg version? [05:52] shirox: whatever you think isnt done [05:52] !info xorg [05:52] xorg (source: xorg): X.Org X Window System. In component main, is optional. Version 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 (trusty), package size 3 kB, installed size 80 kB [05:52] shirox: yes, then do what johndropper said to upgrade packages within that release [05:52] !info firefox [05:52] firefox (source: firefox): Safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2 (trusty), package size 24500 kB, installed size 59477 kB [05:52] holstein, any suggestions with my issue? I don't notice any permissions issues [05:53] Jammerx2: remind me [05:53] "So I managed to the upgrade finished, it seems to have corrupted some of my user config files though (couldn't even login at first). I reset the .Xauthority and .config/dconf/user, and can now login but any changes I make to settings are instantly reverted." [05:53] Using the guest account works fine, so I feel like it has to be a permissions issue or some file is corrupted in my home directory, but I can't find anything that seems wrong [05:54] howdy... having some upgrade troubles, 12.04 to 14.04 via the upgrade manager... [05:54] first issue: "hwmatch command not found" when grub loads, then file not found [05:54] Jammerx2: find ~ -not -uid your uid most likely = 1000 [05:55] how do I know what xorg version I have [05:55] Ubuntu splash screen comes up for a bit, then it goes to a black screen with a blinking underscore, and nothing else happens [05:55] shirox: apt-cache policy xorg [05:55] if I switch to a vt, I can "sudo start lightdm" and get into X, but when the screen saver comes on, everythin glocks up again... ? [05:55] Jammerx2: just blow them all out.. just move them, and try the user [05:55] Ah, ~/.cach/dconf [05:55] cache* [05:55] ty [05:58] if i install php5-fpm on 12.0.4 will it override my php with fastcgi running? the end goal is to set up php5-fpm with nginx, right now i have php fastcgi running with apache2... i want to know if i install php5-fpm, will it bring down my site that's running, since it's two different php's? [05:59] chipotle: by default, yes. [05:59] by default yes what? [06:00] chipotle: it may or may not ask you to replace your current config file. But the installation comes with a configuration file that will replace the current one. [06:00] c [06:00] shirox: so how do i install fpm on a server that doesn't have it, without downtime? [06:00] chipotle: sorry, I misunderstood the question (thought you mean whether it's going to override your configuration files) [06:01] what's fpm? [06:01] shirox: no, my question is: how do i instlal fpm on a server that's already got php fastcgi installed [06:01] PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation with some additional features useful for sites of any size, especially busier sites. [06:02] idk \o/ [06:03] hello everyone, how i install driver intel for ubuntu 14.04....???? [06:03] Well that seems to have fixed it, sucks that I had to reset my dconf settings but at least those shouldn't be too hard to fix [06:05] Jammerx2: get old settings back from backup (you made one before, didn't you?) [06:06] Hafiz: should be required to [06:06] Where can I find an Ubuntu software IRC channel? [06:06] Yeah, but it seems to have the same problem (unity doesn't start), I think something must have happened after I last logged off before the backup [06:06] Not a huge issue though [06:07] As long as all my application settings are fine (which they are) it doesn't matter [06:09] Can someone help me with audio issues in Avidemux? [06:11] I get no sound on playback and going into Preferences > Audio, the only output device is "Dummy". [06:11] PupUsereb2f67: nothing for pulse? [06:11] PupUsereb2f67: have you tried pavucontrol? [06:11] PupUsereb2f67: do you have audio otherwise? [06:13] Every other app has sound. I don't use Pulseaudio. [06:13] just ALSA [06:13] PupUsereb2f67: thats not default. what did you do to deviate from default? [06:14] PupUsereb2f67: could be, avidemux reqires pulse these days.. [06:14] Pulseaudio kept having choppy playback. [06:14] PupUsereb2f67: "dummy" is all you see for output? [06:14] Yes. [06:14] PupUsereb2f67: choppy may be preferred === Guest897643 is now known as Guest786535 [06:16] How can I get the internet usage for the past month on Ubuntu? [06:17] I guess I'll try reinstalling it. Sound is an absolute must with video editing. [06:17] someone tested ubuntu-tweak yet on trusty? [06:17] BlueShark: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMonitorInternetTrafficTotals [06:17] BlueShark: likely have to plan for the future now [06:17] BlueShark: some routers keep track [06:18] Is unity any faster on Ubuntu 14.04 than 13.10? [06:18] PupUsereb2f67: try it and see [06:18] lotuspsychje, The stable has not released a trusty yet [06:18] Beldar: tnx [06:18] vnstat looks cool but it says it doesn't have enough data yet. [06:19] So, there's no way I can get the usage statistics for the past month, right? [06:19] PupUsereb2f67: all the trusty reviews say 14.04 is very fast [06:19] BlueShark: you can look at your gateway/router [06:19] holstein: how do you mean? [06:19] BlueShark: otherwise, you will implement something now [06:19] I just want to know before I install. Ubuntu 13.10 lagged like hell on my netbook, so I switched to Xubuntu. [06:19] PupUsereb2f67: check the omgubuntu website for the video review [06:19] I'm new to Ubuntu.. How many Ubuntu viruses are there? [06:19] BlueShark: your router.. some routers keep track. so, maybe your router has a log of your data usage [06:20] !virus | Guest786535 [06:20] Guest786535: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [06:20] BlueShark, ISPs also often have a way to check usage, but if there's no way via that or the router than you're out of luck. [06:20] then* [06:21] PupUsereb2f67: also depends on your hardware, i would try trusty clean install [06:21] Guest786535: Almost none. You can get some Windows viruses in Wine (never happened to me), but it will only affect your Wine prefix. [06:22] Is there a Unity 2d or a way to disable compositing in 14.04? [06:23] Could a virus not easily get in by installing an app (as root) using a 3rd-party PPA or infected program? [06:23] I was just wondering because software center told me to only install things from trusted sources. [06:23] !ppa | dw1 [06:23] dw1: 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 [06:23] I believe that was discontinued PupUsereb2f67, might be better off with xfce [06:23] PupUsereb2f67: you can use something like xfce [06:24] dw1: there is always a danger, for untrusted software, rootkits, malicious banners in browsers [06:24] Where would you look for some info about volume of donations from 14.04 download page? [06:24] holstein: That's what I'm using right now, but I like Unity better. [06:24] dw1: but there are security tools to tighten your system [06:25] lotuspsychje: yeah. personally i haven't used anti-virus for at least a decade and haven't been infected because I don't click on stupid stuff or install obscure programs :) [06:25] PupUsereb2f67: it requires 3d [06:25] !security | dw1 [06:25] dw1: Security Updates are dealt with here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Security - See also !root, !firewall and !server [06:25] Guest786535: Theoretically, yes, but getting a virus is just incredibly rare. I've installed tons of ppa programs and never got malware. [06:25] you can have issues with malware while running antivirus programs, and using them improperly [06:26] yeah the problem with anti-virus programs is the virus has to be first detected before the program can find it.. so if you're up against any good programmer, you won't detect it [06:26] dw1: i like snort, rkhunter,nmap and complex passwords [06:26] lotuspsychje, there is definitely always a danger but you are significantly less likely to run into a virus on Linux and accidentally running it [06:26] Hello! [06:26] How do I take a screenshot? [06:27] PrintScreen [06:27] someHuman: PrtSc key [06:27] Via keyboard shortcut? [06:27] It's such a shame. Unity's interface is designed to be good on netbooks, but it's so resource hungry that it lags like hell. [06:27] qin: Then? [06:27] Jammerx2: thats true its more secure, but on not-updated browser i would be still carefull fro pcbanking malicious banners [06:27] How do I configure the screenshot program to automatically save the screenshot instead of popping up the dialog? :-/ [06:27] someHuman: You should have some silly effect and info than file was saved [06:27] Does Hand of Thief still exist? [06:27] qin: I don't get any. [06:27] dw1: did you try kazam? [06:28] dconf on gnome-screensaver entries didn't do anything :( [06:28] lotuspsychje: no.. it used to work how I want it in 13.10 but changed on upgrade [06:28] !info kazam | dw1 [06:28] dw1: kazam (source: kazam): screencast and screenshot application created with design in mind. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.4-1 (trusty), package size 732 kB, installed size 2052 kB [06:28] very handy [06:28] also lightweight to record desktop to video [06:29] lotuspsychje, I wouldn't consider blocking malicious sites to be necessarily part of an antivirus, I'm sure there's addons for browsers to cover that [06:29] I am stuck with this, trying to set up my HP wireless printer. http://imgur.com/LNkHRWE [06:29] I was stuck in that step. [06:29] I've found recordmydesktop to be less intrusive. [06:29] yeah, lot of third party apps out there but i just want it to save without the dialog like it was in 13.10 [06:30] someHuman: did you install hplip tools? [06:30] oh i meant dconf on gnome-screenshot, not screensaver [06:30] lotuspsychje: That's what am doing lol, then I gut stuck. [06:30] someHuman: what happens when you press connect? [06:31] lotuspsychje: I am literally stuck lol, it doesn't do anything. I tjust shows me this loading mouse pointer whenever I hover over the window. [06:32] someHuman: maybe start the hplip from a terminal, to see errors? [06:33] bbl === ori_ is now known as Guest38442 [06:37] Hi all: I have 14.04 and a HP EliteBook 2170p - I cannot change the brightness of the screen [06:38] Any ideas? [06:39] Multbrelch, there is a way, which may work, in the grub menu config, appending a line to say backlight=vendor, google that term [06:39] k [06:39] bizarr since under 13.30 it worked out of the box [06:39] Multbrelch, it happened with my intel [06:40] omg [06:40] o_o [06:40] helloo? [06:42] Q: There are not many updates (sudo apt-get update/dist-upgrade) in 14.04, is that normal? [06:44] Multbrelch: it's been out for all of two days, so there's not going to be many updates yet [06:47] hallo, how can i hog all the bandwidth in shortest time possible [06:47] ping with big packets and -f ? [06:49] Ah === root_ is now known as Guest40914 [06:49] asdfguest: usually it is number/volume/quality of connections factor, but #networking will certainly help you. Why would you want to hog it? [06:49] So that's why am stuck with HP wireless printer setup haha! I removed the USB cable, I thought it wasn't needed because I was I thought it only needed wifi haha! [06:49] Oh well lol! === Guest40914 is now known as RahulAN [06:50] because someone uses it extensively, and i wish to hog it from the start to teach a lesson for a whole month [06:52] @holstein. What is the proper way of installing amd drivers? [06:52] asdfguest: if you have access to router, there is crude macfilter, if not - ask admin. for wi-fi arp poisoning should be better, wont kill your own connection but disconnect unwanted peer. [06:57] hi [06:57] on ubuntu gnome, how can I change the ... "depth" of the dash search? [06:57] it doesn't find all files :/ [06:59] henrylinux: not all files in your /home/ ? [06:59] Hey, I changed DNS servers but after restart they were gone. How can I prevent this? [06:59] volkan: how did you change them? [07:00] llutz, via resolv.conf [07:00] volkan: edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head or base and add them there, run sudo resolvconf -u after [07:01] qin, yes, they are [07:01] qin, just not only in the typical xorg-user-dirs, I've created some folders of my own. or is that a problem? [07:03] henrylinux: where are xorg-user-dirs ? [07:03] llutz, Thanks, I'll try. What is the difference between /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head ? [07:03] qin, in my home of course... :) [07:03] volkan: /etc/resolv.conf will be created from those files in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/* [07:03] henrylinux: do "locate" see them? [07:04] qin, yup it did [07:04] llutz, OK, thanks! [07:04] qin, wait no I didn't try that. I used gnome-search-tool and that saw them [07:07] Any suggestion for torrent? [07:07] 64bit [07:09] hi. can anyone compare notebook battery life on 14.04 vs windows 8? [07:11] majod: Since Linux kernel is monolithic, unlike Windows hybrid's one, it will drain battery faster, comfort yourself that Ubuntu is fairly more stable. [07:11] Ubuntu One said I can no longer use it or backuo. [07:11] backup* [07:11] What else can I use for backup? [07:11] does anyone use eclipse? i was wondering do you get more screen real estate with the menu being in the titlebar? [07:11] someHuman: dropbox? [07:11] someHuman: google drive, dropbox [07:11] eutheria: Thanks! [07:11] someHuman: Google Drive, Dropbox, many more, or own box with unison or rsync... [07:12] is google drive easy to get working? [07:12] i've seen some over the top ways to get it working [07:12] Just installed Ubuntu (Gnome). Now I can't boot onto Windows (no, I did not overwrite my windows partition) [07:12] eutheria: not sure if drive is that easy to get integrated with ubuntu, dropbox works very well though. [07:13] does anyone here have two Windows/Super keys on his/her keyboard and they working ootb on UBuntu? [07:13] eutheria: grive is fairly simple. [07:13] Hi! I have a weird problem with my Java IDE - either I don't have the right click menu or the top (file) menu does not work [07:13] andyfied: for me too [07:13] it says something like EndEntire ... error cannot load image [07:13] (asking baout vanilla ubuntu) === wycats___ is now known as wycats__ [07:13] i like dropbox a lot, so quick to get working [07:15] i am debating about going back to ubuntu [07:16] ok [07:18] eutheria: dropbox does work great on ubuntu, i had no prblems, installed quick and worked immediately, plus works fine on android (does need an additional app to auto-sync) the only issue is privacy, but you can always encrypt things into archives [07:19] spideroak! [07:21] eutheria: for gdrive, there is syncdrive which looks easy enough to install. i've not tried it myself, but i may do later today [07:21] andyfied: i wouldn't use any cloud service for a backup, i would normally use a local nas [07:22] andyfied: it was someone else who asked the question, i was just commenting on that gdrive isn't easy to get working [07:22] Is there anyone here using a 4K display with Ubuntu? perhaps Seiki for regular computer usage like programming/reading? [07:22] and has anybody been able to find a font that is not terrible? [07:22] jaggy etc? [07:23] *jagged [07:23] eutheria: good plan, local backups are quicker but cloud is obviously good for high availiablity. i have noticed syncdrive is no longer supported :/ nevermind! good luck [07:25] what is the consensus of the channel on moving from 13.10 to 14.04, upgrade or fresh install? [07:26] elroy freshest is bestest [07:26] go to arch linux for the real stuff [07:26] !behelpful|henrylinux [07:26] henrylinux: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. [07:26] andyfied: well you can get a lot of those nas devices to push backups to a cloud provider [07:26] elroy: a clean install is preferable ;) [07:27] just so tempting to click that Upgrade pop up button :) [07:27] where in the file system are programs like vlc or qbitorrent installed? like when i say "qbitorrent" into the terminal and it runs, what and where is it linking to? [07:27] does anyone here have two Windows keys and can use them ootb on vanilla Ubuntu 14.04? [07:28] shahan: "dpkg -L packagename" shows you [07:28] not having synapse on Xubuntu 14.01 makes me want to migrate [07:28] henrylinux don't let us stop you, but please keep the off-topic commentary to yourself or the off-topic channel [07:29] elroy: if you're prepared to do a full install, then you've nothing to lose by clicking upgrade. What's the worst that can happen? [07:29] no I'm serious, I didn't manage to get the right one working on UBuntu Gnome. [07:29] llutz: thanks [07:30] I just don't want to use the left super key to open the dash / search window, whether it's in unity or gnome [07:30] what would be the command to search my entire file system for a file with "some string" in it? 'find "string" /" with '/' being root directory? [07:30] cfhowlett, http://askubuntu.com/questions/450022/ [07:30] find and grep [07:31] shahan: sudo grep -ri "some string" / [07:31] llutz: thanks you rule [07:31] Ubuntu Gnome seems like a rising star [07:32] If I was gonna switch someone from XP, that would be my choice [07:35] IM LOVING UBUNTU 14.04......yayyyyyyyyyy....lol [07:36] Is anyone there???

[08:11] riverloop: i am facing the same problem with firefox [08:11] hi. i use 14.04 it came with kernel 3.13 but there is already 3.14.1 when will this 3.14 be available officially? (i mean with apt-get dist-upgrade) [08:11] lalalalala: firefox is okay for me. [08:11] and alt+left-click to move the window [08:13] rigo: canonical provides patches for the 3.13 [08:14] im just not sure how this works. it clear it must be tested etc etc. but how long? i mean v3.13-trusty/ was releasee 20-Jan-2014 04:02 and 3.14 non rc is 31-Mar-2014 05:20 [08:14] stupid keyboard i cant type sry. [08:15] Darn, I just found an annoyance in 12.04. If I doubleclick a shell script that I'd given a desktop icon, it only opens it for editing in gedit, rather than asking whether I want to run it. (and yes, the executable bits are still set) [08:15] s/12.04/14.04/ [08:16] When I had it in 12.04 it gave me the option [08:17] penth: open Files then edit > preferences and behaviour tab and check executable text file to ask it's time [08:18] skype and 14.04 can't be installed now [08:18] There it is, perfect.

I tried changing the size to 512x512, 256x256, 128x128 but no luck! The default one had an icon, so i disabled the shortcut I created but still it didnt work.

[11:31] I can't seem to open local swf-files in any of my browsers any more.. might have something to do with an updated mime-type for flash but I haven't really found a good solution...

[12:51] MonkeyDust: yes, this is very inconvenient for me [12:52] kristenbb you can also get familiar with the new position of the close button [12:52] MonkeyDust: and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Not to mention all those XP users (the xp support just ended) that will want to go to ubuntu, just to find out that the close button is not where it's supposed to be [12:53] MonkeyDust: that's not how ergonomy is supposed to work, the software should adapt to the user, or give the option to do as the user wants, not the opposite [12:54] kristenbb: then file a bug, help the maintainers to solve the problem. [12:54] MonkeyDust: why do you think the windows 8 didnt work that well ? just because microsoft just made the same assumptions about users adapting to new software [12:54] !bug | kristenbb [12:54] kristenbb: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [12:55] kristenbb: so help the community instead of demanding stuff and others to do the work [12:56] I am helping, by saying that this is wrong [12:56] BW^-: yes, the network thingy. click on it and you will see the settings. its quite easx [12:56] kristenbb: then stop saying. or help and file a bug. your acall [12:56] kristenbb yes, you're entitled to that opinion [12:57] how do i download a package in the terminal including it's dependencies? [12:57] MonkeyDust: usually when there are different opinions about a user experience, the best way to answer that is to give the user the option to choose. That's how it was in ubuntu 13.10, 12.04, and all the others before, but now this feature is broken. [12:57] is this right: sudo apt-get -d packagename [12:57] is this right: sudo apt-get -d download packagename [12:58] kristenbb: did you file a bug and help the maintainer? [12:58] k1l_,kostkon: so the network manager tool is supposed to work out of the box, or needs some daemon running without saying so? [12:58] BW^-: that works out of the box. except there are driver issues with the wifi card [12:58] euryale i guess it's either sudo apt-get download foo *or* sudo apt-get -d install foo [12:59] hello everyone, gimp pisses me off..the page I opened a file goes up out of the display. only tool windows appear, and I cant make the main file window come back [12:59] i tried this in ubuntu restricted extras, but downloaded only a few kb [13:00] the file is about 70mb [13:01] I think it happens when I switch windows by alt+tab === g00fy is now known as g00fy|BNC [13:05] k1l_: it seems difficult to create a bug report.

It works well but the download of the additional packets (e.g. language) is very slow (approx. 30kB/s). Is it possible to change the download mirror usednin the installation? [13:06] !bug | kristenbb [13:06] k1l_: this page is quite long, I don't understand it all [13:07] Franky333, sure, you can change the mirror in software sources, but the servers are smokin' because of the release [13:07] kristenbb: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [13:07] Franky333, open your updater, click on settings [13:07] k1l_: it mostly seems to be talking about crashes and so on, but in my case, what am I supposed to do ? [13:07] the bots message mentiones the command [13:08] use that command, that collects data and opens the launchpad site. there you say what is not working [13:09] I already tried that but it did not change the mirror uswd during installation. installing something in the live system using apt-get is fast as usual.

There's no option to select 1600x900 at the display monitor selection . Using nouveau , and my graphic card is nvidia GC. [14:44] i can give you the details [14:44] i've the report [14:44] how [14:44] MonkeyDust: even with -d it will be the actual release from the 17th then? [14:44] ovrflw0x: Im not sure. There can be many causes. Just pastebin and someone might help [14:44] johndropper: ouch.. reinstall/restore win8 then install ubuntu :-/ if you have important files... well they might be lost if the partition is gone [14:44] NightTrojan: the basic system doesn't use much memory.. it's the gui stuff that matters most, in my experience.. just changing from gnome to something like XFCE can make a big difference [14:45] kupo_: The maintainer of the ppa has to make a package available for the 14.04 distro. So doing apt add-repository ppa will do. If it is not working correctly, you can try to modify the repo entry manually and change trusty to saucy for the repo. [14:45] testing1209347 i did it that way, works like a charm [14:45] kroson, i can't copy the report [14:45] ive installed 14.04, VLCSub not working anymore [14:45] kroson, it is asking me if i want to send it or not [14:45] MonkeyDust: cool beans thx [14:46] testing1209347 but i repeat, it takes up to 2 hours and you must stay present, to confirm some changes [14:46] ovrflw0x: whats your graphics card and laptop model [14:47] kroson, Envy14 hp notebook, graphics card - discrete Radon HD5650 and intel integrated i915 [14:47] 2010 model Kromaz [14:47] kroson, ^^^^ [14:47] has anyone had issues with software center on 1404 [14:47] hi [14:48] chucky: yes [14:48] chucky what kind of issues? [14:48] ovrflw0x: I dont know, maybe theres some sort of problem with dual graphics AMD plus Intel on that machine. Maybe googling could help [14:48] Kroson it deosn't happen always only sometimes [14:48] i've experienced it only 1 time [14:48] Slart: when trying to install software which requires popup during install I get a grey screen and everthing freezes with no popup [14:49] very weird. Maybe it only suspends with one, integrated or discrete [14:49] how can I configure the unity panel to show the option to reboot? [14:49] how do I view fan speed ? [14:49] kroson, integrated is OFF i'm only using Discrete radeon card [14:49] chucky: same thing here.. it just hangs, probably waiting for that popup to finish, until you kill the process [14:49] chucky: installing the offending package in a regular terminal worked for me [14:49] gast__1 !ccsm has a lot of tweaks, maybe it's one of them [14:50] apt-get appears to be only fix [14:50] !ccsm [14:50] To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' (or 'simple-ccsm' for pre-Oneiric). If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz [14:50] ovrflw0x: I know. I mean that it might only suspend correctly with one but not the other [14:51] kroson, to verfiy that what info do you need? [14:51] verify* [14:51] newb_ubuntu: with psensor [14:52] Im not really into that, sorry. I think you should repost your question here and see if anyone comes with an idea [14:52] kroson, it says "Problem Type - Kernel Oops" [14:52] 14.04, VLSub not working anymore? [14:52] Hi, I'm learning Bittorrent protocol now. I sent handshake to peers, but I got nothing, why? what the response look like? [14:53] one23 try sudo apt-get install --reinstall vlc-plugin-vlsub [14:53] @Slart it Gnome looks so good, i'd rather buy more ram than change to xfce [14:54] NightTrojan: ram is pretty cheap.. I would do the same in your position [14:54] @Slart i've considered using lubuntu, tryed the 'live' version, but can't seem to get wifi working [14:55] Hi there [14:55] Is there a channel specially for the server? [14:55] q [14:55] q [14:55] quit [14:55] RealKillaz #ubuntu-server [14:55] does an external usb wifi dongle work the same as an internal wifi card? when i type "ifconfig" or "iwconfig" will it appear as if inside? [14:56] thank you MonkeyDust [14:57] one23 thanks [14:57] does anyone knows how to make "Audigy FX" to work in ubuntu ? [14:57] Anyone know how to manually set the display setting ? to 1600x900 ? [14:57] RealKillaz: #ubuntu-server --> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [14:57] !find audigy [14:57] File audigy found in ld10k1, oss4-base, oss4-dkms [14:58] i'm looking for an app that can bulk xmp tag my images? [14:58] aligator: I think so... just tried it here with an old d-link usb wifi stick [14:58] Audigy FX sorry but this sound card is based on realtek chipset and sound as default in ubuntu is just noise [14:58] aligator: I got a wlan0 interface and everything seems to be working as far as I can tell [14:59] can anyone tell by looking at this http://pastebin.mozilla.org/4861707 <-- why did computer hanged while trying to resume after suspend? [14:59] Slart: thank you very much [14:59] every single time i try ubuntu something doesnt work [15:00] Raider_: get a mac. *runsforcover* [15:00] armin and what is audigy fx? [15:01] audigy fx need internal PCI-PCIE driver to work i think [15:01] The site is loading pretty good now but on browser its not [15:01] you think [15:01] Raider_: on a similar note.. everytime I try to use anything made by creative I run into problems.. linux or windows doesn't matter =/ [15:01] i'm just surprised to see we still have to deal with tearing under X [15:01] Anyone here having trouble with 14.04 and php5/php5-fpm/mcrypt ? "php --ri mcrypt" shows it enabled, but phpinfo() doesn't, only showing the authors. roundcube can't log in, and phpmyadmin claims it's not enabled. [15:01] the /etc/resolv.conf has one entry [15:01] nameserver 127.0.0.1 [15:01] is it correct?? [15:01] Raider_ and what is it supposed to do? [15:02] one should think that should finally not be an issue anymore [15:02] MonkeyDust it didnt work [15:02] oh well i stick to wiindows and wait another 5 years maybe then it will work properly [15:02] one23 what didnt work? [15:03] sound card should play sounds not static [15:03] Raider_ other things don't work in windows, or in mac, that happens [15:03] Raider_ ah, ok, so the sound card [15:04] everything works in windows for my whole life [15:04] MonkeyDust VLSub reinstalled [15:04] not including broken hardware [15:04] I'm thinking of building a dedicated ubuntu machine, i need help with the build [15:05] one23 maybe try reinstalling vlc, then [15:06] ok now how do i remove grub ? [15:07] i know how but reinstalling windows takes like 2 hours [15:07] MonkeyDust: there's a warning about vlsub not working with vlc 2.1.0 because of some lua problem.. what version of vlc are you using? [15:07] NightTrojan: I would take some motherboard with an intel chipset and some i5/7 CPU. If you need a dedicated GPU, I would tend to Nvidia. [15:08] Raider_: you can restore the boot sector with a windows install/repair cd I think.. you might be able to get better help in something like ##windows [15:08] Slart address one23 , s/he's the one with the vlsub issue [15:09] MonkeyDust: ah.. sorry bout that [15:09] one23: there's a warning about vlsub not working with vlc 2.1.0 because of some lua problem.. what version of vlc are you using? [15:09] Hi all [15:09] @minimec what if i add nvidia 660 and 1tb hard drive with 120gb ssd for ubuntu [15:10] Using google chrome remote desktop on Ubuntu 14.04 and not getting anything . [15:10] NightTrojan: ... then you are a 'power user' ... ;) [15:11] tarelerulz: any errors? or just not getting any connections? [15:11] No connecting [15:11] tarelerulz: try reinstalling.. try pinging the machines to make sure they have connection. try letting firewalls down to test.. report to the creators [15:11] @minimec whats a ''poweer user''? [15:11] ''power''* [15:11] I turned off the firewall at one point and still the same hting [15:12] tarelerulz: well, turn it off, and confirm that you can ping the machine,and that they have access to each other [15:12] NightTrojan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_user [15:12] I'm trying to use my android device as the control and the host is my Ubuntu computer which I'm writting this now [15:12] one23: read this thread about vlsub not working in vlc 2.1.x especially the reply from exebetche https://github.com/exebetche/vlsub/issues/28 [15:13] tarelerulz: try from computer to computer, to rule out the mobile control [15:13] Good call [15:14] How do I change display resolution ubuntu 12.04 custom using 1600 x 900 ? There's no option to select 1600x900 at the display monitor selection . Using nouveau , and my graphic card is nvidia GC. [15:15] newb_ubuntu: use xrandr to add new modes and switch to them if the GUI isn't cooperating [15:15] alo [15:15] co fajnego [15:15] ?

Anyone here having trouble with 14.04 and php5/php5-fpm/mcrypt ? "php --ri mcrypt" shows it enabled, but phpinfo() doesn't, only showing the authors. roundcube can't log in, and phpmyadmin claims it's not enabled. [15:19] NightTrojan: I mean this will be quiet a good machine with these specs. I guess you would take 8GB RAM, maybe 16GB if you are doing heavy media work, like cutting a 2hours HD video recording... [15:19] Nukien: perhaps there is a channel for php or web development where you might find more answers? [15:20] yay all ubuntu users! [15:20] Nukien: make sure mcrypt is set to load in php.d or php.ini [15:20] @minimec ill go with 8gb for 5 weeks, see how fast it goes, then go for 16gb [15:20] Yeah, I'm looking. Thing is, it works fine in 13.10 - with a tweak, 13.10 puts mcrypt.ini in wrong dir, simple symlink fixes that [15:20] @thanks mini appreciate it! [15:21] @minimec [15:21] 14.04 puts it in right place. [15:22] module000: Yup, it's enables, link is in /etc/php5/fpm/conf.d pointing to mcrypt.ini in /etc/php5/mods-available. mcrypt.ini has correct "extension=mcrypt.so" [15:22] php --ri mcrypt shows that it's enabled, what ciphers etc. [15:23] Yet a page with phpinfo() doesn't show it, only the line stating the authors - it's supposed to have it's own section showing ciphers [15:23] Nukien: and you don't see it mentioned in apache(or whichever http daemon you are using)? if it's only partially loading you should get some output there [15:23] Nukien: in the logs for your daemon i mean [15:23] using nginx [15:24] NightTrojan: Some people say, that you should buy the RAM in 'one block', as some manufactors do change little things during production batches. So the 'new' 8GB does not work well with the 'old' 8GB. Maybe ask your retailer... [15:24] Can someone help me with site not getting loaded properly problem [15:24] DestinyAwaits: probably the creator of the site.. otherwise, you'll need more details [15:24] NightTrojan: You're welcome ;) [15:25] throwing error net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED [15:25] holstein: its working now on my mobile [15:25] DestinyAwaits which site?

[15:29] whanna dual-boot 14.04 with W8 (oem installation on thinkpad x1), but 14.04 doesnt recognise te other os [15:29] holstein: nameserver 127.0.01 is it correct?? [15:29] in /etc/resolv.cong [15:29] DestinyAwaits: can you use the internet normalling from the machine? you are implying that only this site is problematic, and, is just not loading some elements [15:29] conf [15:30] what is normalling?? [15:30] DestinyAwaits: this doesnt imply a networking issue, but, an issue loading those elements [15:30] DestinyAwaits: ? its a typo [15:30] lots of elemets are not coming up [15:30] DestinyAwaits: i meant, normally.. [15:30] hi everyone [15:30] DestinyAwaits: "lots" on other sites? or just this site? [15:30] DestinyAwaits: if so, its not a networkgin issue, or an issue with that site [15:31] DestinyAwaits: above is a typo, that is intended to be "networking"* [15:31] holstein: Well this is showing the issue but am not sure but others will be effected too [15:31] can anyone help me, be searching all day, tried everything and i cannot get my hdmi monitor working connected to my n46v asus laptop [15:31] holstein: nameserver 127.0.01 is it correct entry in /etc/resolv.conf ??

I installed it on Windows 7 and control it with my note 3 just fine. It would seem Ubuntu don't work [15:34] OerHeks: bro I said it css but many others are not coming up [15:35] not just css [15:35] tarelerulz: well, it would seem that chrome on ubuntu is not working [15:35] its like raw html getting loaded and rest are error [15:35] tarelerulz: let them know.. in my testing, i read that the linux version is limited in features [15:36] Really limited as it don't work [15:36] DestinyAwaits which browser? maybe it's a setting you have to un/check [15:36] tarelerulz: works for me.. how is it as another user? [15:36] holstein: one more thing the sites are loading pretty slow [15:36] its like dead slow [15:36] even google [15:36] DestinyAwaits: the speed of loading is not related to DNS>. but, if you like, use the opendns settings i linked [15:36] Well, You mean The normal user on Ubuntu or you mean different Google account [15:37] holstein: even the opendns site is not getting loaded fully [15:37] DestinyAwaits: you can then rule that out, and move on to user config [15:37] only html [15:37] 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 [15:37] ^ open DNS name servers, DestinyAwaits [15:37] holstein: where is that?

[15:38] /etc/resolv.conf?? [15:38] what is the value for nameserver [15:38] if not 127.0.0.1 [15:39] DestinyAwaits: i just gave a linke to them, and listed them above [15:39] DestinyAwaits: no one thinks you have a DNS issue, but if you want to try the openDNS nameservers, it wont hurt [15:39] what does doing "Suspend" from Ubuntu 14.04 do? suspend to RAM or DISK? [15:39] D0minat0r: Installing gnome-shell, did it also install 'gdm', and did you have to choose the login manager during install? [15:40] ovrflw0x suspend = to ram, hibernate = to disk [15:40] ovrflw0x: "suspend" should be ram.. hibernate is to disk.. [15:40] minimec: yup i did get to choose login manager [15:40] DestinyAwaits: get DNS name servers from your ISP. [15:40] holstein: this is my /etc/resolv.conf [15:40] # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) [15:40] # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN === thomas is now known as Guest91354 === Guest91354 is now known as ProhibitedUser [15:40] nameserver 127.0.0.1 [15:40] DestinyAwaits: i saw it above.. and i dont think its a problem.. i agree with the message that is linked there, and above.. but, if you want to set them to openDNS, go for it [15:40] Sorry, but has anyone had trouble with Steam since installing Ubuntu 14.04? [15:41] DestinyAwaits: you can at least rule that out, and move on.. since you seem to want to address the DNS server settings [15:41] DestinyAwaits use !pastebin for long pastes [15:41] ah ok [15:41] MonkeyDust: thx [15:41] So holstein What do you mean try a different user ? [15:41] D0minat0r: So which one did you choose lightdm or gdm? [15:41] how to add the enteries in /ect/resolv.conf [15:42] minimec: tried both [15:42] holstein: this site is also not coming up on raw html is loaded http://www.opendns.com/home-internet-security/premium-dns/ [15:42] i am installing 14.04 on a disk already containing windows 8.1, i have selected 'something else' but how do i know which of the partitions are the efi partition? i have a 300mb recovery so it's not that, but also a 100MB flagged boot and a 128MB flagged msftres? [15:42] so its a system wide problem [15:42] DestinyAwaits: sudo echo nameserver x.x.x.x > /etc/resolv.conf [15:42] tarelerulz: i mean, the issue could be with your users config.. by loading up the guest user, you get to remove that config from the equation. if things are the same as the guest user, its system wide.. if things are fine as the guest user, the issue is in the user config (tyipcally) [15:43] gHo: do I have to append? [15:43] my laptop on docking station doesn't recognise the two connected monitors as separate monitors and only offers a resolution to span the view on both of the monitors. Is there a way to detect the monitors as separate monitors instead of one? [15:43] Could somebody provide me with information about openssl http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/utils/openssl [15:43] or overrite? [15:43] D0minat0r: If you temd to use gnome-shell as primary desktop manager, I would switch to gdm. I think it is better in combination with gnome-shell.

[15:44] DestinyAwaits: test it, and rule out that the issue is dns related [15:44] @holstein, Is this vulnerable version? Should I upgrade to trusty? [15:44] DestinyAwaits: overwrite all DNS nameserver to DNS from your ISP (from ROUTER?) [15:44] holstein: no refresh or restart needed [15:44] debianto1user: supported versions will get security patches [15:45] DestinyAwaits: ? is that a question? [15:45] @holstein, I'm especially talking about heartbleed I'm under attack [15:45] DestinyAwaits: if i were you, i would reboot. but, yes, you can restart networking, or relog, or reboot [15:45] minimec: i tried that already three times [15:45] I don't actually mind the view being on two monitors, but it's really annoying that maximising a program maximises it on both monitors [15:45] debianto1user: you should confirm you have the patched version [15:45] can anyone tell by looking at this http://pastebin.mozilla.org/4861707 <-- why did computer hanged while trying to resume after suspend?

[16:56] even thats a slim description [16:57] xubuntu215, is it a game that you download on your pc or do yhou play it online [16:57] cool [16:57] Does anyone here have any experience with 14.04/Unity running x11vnc showing a black screen to the client connection? The mouse is active and you can interact with the host screen, but nothing displays. I'm running it on Virtualbox at present, and I'm unsure if that is the limiting factor and there would be no issue on a prod, headless system. x11vnc also has the -noxdamage flag used.

Now I can't play OpenArena. My graphic card, radeon HD 4670. [17:04] Haswell: they have not been banned [17:04] xubuntu215, is this the download page http://ygopro.de/de/?page_id=12 [17:04] I tried it with 14 but it would recognize my windows 8 [17:04] I did every said from every forum [17:04] ikonia: do you know where I can read about "diskfilter writes are not supported" ? [17:05] @kostkon yes bro!!! [17:05] what do you mean read about it ? there are a ton of bugs logged about it [17:05] johndropper: are you drunk? :) [17:05] johndropper: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". [17:05] Lol [17:05] I dont have ubuntu [17:05] Lol [17:05] ikonia: I cant find much. I am getting that error each boot. deleting "/boot/grub/grubenv" fixes it for 1 reboot only. [17:06] robbie: there are LOTS of bugs logged about it [17:06] xubuntu215, ok, then add the wine ppa, install wine1.7 and wine-mono4.5.2 [17:06] ikonia: Im not looking for bugs Im looking for documentation - if the error is in there there aught to be documentation about it somewhere [17:06] xubuntu215, and hope that it will work [17:06] Thanks tho [17:06] johndropper: Please boot from an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB and pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". [17:06] robbie: documentation about the error ??? that is a bug [17:06] xubuntu215, chances are slim imo [17:07] ikonia, the drivers have not been banned. ok. Then what explanation do you have for losing the drivers in an update? [17:07] kostkon I tried it. but it does not so [17:07] Haswell: no idea what you're talking about [17:07] ikonia: I am looking for documentation about the error code that is reported. An error code should be documented somewhere. [17:07] robbie: yes, it's documented in the bug reports [17:08] ikonia: no I mean documentation for ubuntu [17:08] hi there, i want to install ubuntu in the root partion and keep the home partion seperate..i want to know if again want to install another version of ubuntu the home partion will be intact right?? :) [17:08] xubuntu215, then there's not much you could do, other than using windows [17:08] robbie: It's a bug with an Ubuntu specific patch relating to the recordfail feature. [17:08] robbie: yes, there are ubuntu bugs [17:08] I've update to 14.04 and the Xorg server is eating all CPU. How can I debug it? [17:08] kostkon, that must function but [17:08] Jordan_U thank you [17:08] as I keep saying it's documented in the bug [17:08] (bugs) [17:08] well a bug report isnt documentation at all [17:08] SRI_nazi: if you don't format it, yes it will be intact [17:08] kostkon, winetricks ? [17:09] SRI_nazi: asuming your /home is on a separate partition [17:09] Yeah guys I quit [17:09] an error code without documentation is useless, they should jsut remove it [17:09] xubuntu215, oh yes, give it a try [17:09] robbie: what part of "it's documented in the bug report" can you not grasp [17:09] xubuntu215, will it automatically mount on startup [17:09] robbie: That feature requires writing to /boot/grub/grubenv from grub, which isn't safe to do from grub when said file is on a RAID array (diskfilter). [17:09] robbie: the error is VERY useful, as it explains the proble and allows people (as Jordan_U has just shown) to find the problem [17:09] ikonia: don't pick a fight with me, jsut listen and try to understand, or do something else [17:09] I hope not :34 [17:10] robbie: no - you listen, it IS documented, so complaining that it's not documented is wrong [17:10] Jordan_U: looks like it also hits LVM [17:10] ikonia: I'd like to see documentation then. Not ambiguous references to unspecificed bugs [17:10] or any layer between device - $something - filesysstem [17:10] kostkon, with winetricks maybe I could trick the program or as [17:10] xangua, yes in a seperate partion...will automatically mount on startup [17:10] bypass ???' [17:10] robbie: if you read the bugs it explains it in pretty good detail [17:11] xubuntu215, no, use it to install the .net libs [17:11] Anybody want to help me real quick? [17:11] what if I write myself tion program? and thus net to bypass?$ [17:11] I tried to upgrade Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 and messed something up where it doesn't boot. I made a 14.04 USB drive to reinstall but first I want to back up my home folder but whenever I try that I get an error saying permission denied [17:11] yes -> NET-Bibliotheken installieren [17:11] dee_, ask your real question and be patient [17:11] that's what makes problems [17:11] xangua, will it automatically mount at the startup [17:11] ikonia: yeah? that's great. But I mean the software itself as to have documentation including error codes. That is what I imagine I need. [17:12] robbie: what software ? [17:12] ikonia: it is the recordfail feature, I hear [17:12] @dee_ make sure you enter "/" [17:12] SRI_nazi: just remember to use your same user (and password if it is encypted) [17:12] robbie: it's a patch [17:12] robbie: and it's documented in the patch === NightTrojan is now known as NormalGoose [17:12] ikonia: are patches software? [17:12] robbie: which the bugs I keep telling you to read point at [17:12] well what is the patch? if that is where the documentation is, I just need its url [17:12] robbie: depends how you want to word it, patches contain "code" but on their own, software, no [17:13] this is pointless [17:13] When I use the cp command to coppy it, the terminal says "ommitting /home" [17:13] it will work, and if I have to write a program itself, the only thing I have to do is to bypass net, "to deceive" [17:13] ikonia: if you can, I'd appreciate the url to the patch so I can read the documentation... [17:13] robbie: it's not that simple [17:13] if you read the bugs as I keep telling you - it explains the problem [17:13] ikonia: that's why I needed some help [17:13] robbie: what do you want to happen ? [17:13] ikonia: you never gave a url to anything specific [17:14] robbie: do you want a fix ? [17:14] @Dee_ make a fresh drive install and re-download through ubuntu's website [17:14] xangua, i not sure wheather i understand, will it auto mount at startup or should i do manually mount it [17:14] ikonia that would be nice .. but Im kinda doubting it is that simple [17:14] robbie: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1274320 [17:14] Launchpad bug 1274320 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "Error: diskfilter writes are not supported" [Medium,Confirmed] [17:14] robbie: ok, so at the moment there is no "fix" for it, it looks like a fix will be released [17:14] I already have a flashdrive ready, I just want to backup my home folder first [17:14] robbie: so sit tight and wait for the fix to be pushed out [17:14] I wonder. Will my 8600GT continue to work if I upgrade from (X)Ubuntu 13.10 64bit to 14.04 LTS? I use Nvidia proprietary driver distributed by Ubuntu and I failed in installing Nvidia driver manually, previously. [17:15] since I have trouble with FX5200 on one 32-bit laptop with 14.04 , it works only with nouveau and sometimes it fails to boot right. === NormalGoose is now known as NightTrojan [17:16] fuck it [17:16] Jordan_U: thanks again. I actually read that before coming here but it is nice to see t again. Notice that that problem is for raids? in the thread there, someone suggests changing and for raid partitions to 0 1 from 0 0 ... and another thread suggest that it worked for them. But I don't have any raid [17:16] robbie: it's not just raid [17:17] robbie: tht's why I keep saying there are "many" bug reports for it [17:17] rather than just one that suggests just one situation [17:17] hey if i create a seprate partion for home dir in my ubuntu system will it automatically mount at the startup [17:17] robbie: Do you use LVM or btrfs? [17:17] ikonia: the bug report Joran_U gave me was a problem specific to raids [17:17] Jordan_U: LVM [17:17] robbie: That is the issue then. === denysonique_ is now known as denysonique [17:18] robbie: this is why I didn't link you to 1 bug - and keep saying "there are MULTIPLE" bugs for it [17:18] robbie: because there are various situations that can trigger it [17:18] having install issues with ubuntu - can install from dvd but on reboot get verifying DMI pool data failure insert system disc [17:18] I'm running ubuntu server on a spare machine at home [17:19] Jordan_U: okay. looking at comment #5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1274320/comments/5 ¥ do you think that this might work for LVM as well as raids ¥ like changing UUID entries that way? [17:19] Launchpad bug 1274320 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "Error: diskfilter writes are not supported" [Medium,Confirmed] [17:19] I just inserted a windows 7 disc and it launced ubuntu [17:19] i'm having problems with permission with a CMS that I'm using [17:19] Hi [17:19] primary bios boot device is the HDD [17:19] i have preoblem with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS [17:19] any pointers? [17:19] I know my apache server is using user www-data and user group www-data [17:19] i have blur effect [17:19] .. [17:19] @suore Welcome [17:19] I've just noticed that my /var/www is displaying my username for both owner and group [17:19] Jordan_U: there is another page elsewhere where someone points out that the solution in comment#5 worked for them. thats why I ask [17:19] is this correct? [17:19] yeah, uppgrading messed up my apache installation too, i'll have to figure it out... [17:19] shouldn't it be www-data? [17:20] alaing: change it [17:20] robbie: I don't see how that could have an effect either way. [17:20] I've noticed the /var/www/ files and folders mainly have my username:group and some have root:root [17:20] i have global blur effect i usualy all is not readable i uplaoding video [17:20] drwxrwxrwx+ 20 thelaings thelaings 4096 Apr 18 20:50 www [17:20] robbie: Do you realize that the error message doesn't actually prevent booting? [17:20] i hope its recorded corectly [17:21] Jordan_U: yeah. Honestly I dont use Linux much anymore, Im doing this for my dad. He sees the error message and wants it fixed. [17:22] and i have 2 times nvidia-settings xD === sz0 is now known as sz0` [17:22] @suore you don't think it's because you have 2 settings for Nvidia do you? [17:23] I'm booted off of a Ubuntu flashdrive right now and I'm trying to copy the home directory of my broken Ubuntu install. When I copy and paste is says "permission denied!" [17:23] dee copy to where ? [17:23] @dee_ don't copy it then? [17:23] NightTrojan, nope at dashboard i have 2x NVIDIA X Server Settings [17:23] dee_, we need more information to give any answer [17:23] @OerHeks to my other HDD that I have Windows installed on [17:23] robbie: If you add the following to /boot/grub/custom.cfg (create it if it doesn't already exist) it should "disable" recordfail and stop the error, but this is entirely untested: function recordfail { true; } #Suggested as a work around by Jordan_U in #ubuntu, remove once the bug is properly fixed. [17:23] but only 1x its installl nvidia-settings -.- [17:24] @OerHeks what other information [17:24] @suore I recommend reinstalling [17:24] NightTrojan, reinstalling of what? [17:24] think I've found my problem boot repair says that 'The boot files of [The OS now in use - Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS] are far from the start of the disk. Your BIOS may not detect them.' how would I resolve this? [17:24] dee_, doe you see files in your windows partition? is it encrypted ? [17:24] I'm booted into ubuntu now [17:25] Jordan_U: that is condensing Quesar's idea right? I was just looking at that. thank you [17:26] what about bluring after install of nvidia drivers? [17:26] robbie: your best option is to just wait for a fix to be pushed out [17:26] NF19, Post a link from the bootinfo summary generated by using the bootrepair app. [17:26] So Ubuntu 14.04 didn't recognize my A10 APU so after installation it went to low-graphics mode and I wasn't able to pick options or chose anything, the solution was to go to the terminal (ctrl+alt+f1) and install fglrx [17:26] OerHeks, neither partition is encypted. From what I read the /home folder has a special permission of 000 but don't know how to get past that [17:26] Beldar, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7285477/ [17:26] robbie: you may end up doing damage putting work arounds in [17:27] robbie: Someone else may have had the idea also. I haven't looked at the bug report recently and came up with this fix on my own. The nicw thing about it is that (unlike modifying anything in /etc/grub.d/) it shouldn't cause any problems with upgrades. [17:27] @suore drivers! [17:28] NF19, Is the sda HD the first read in the bios? [17:28] yeah [17:28] ikonia, Jordan_U: thank you both [17:28] dee_, dont copy your /home/* but cd /home// and copy * [17:28] even when I try F12 to bring up primary boot menu and select sda drive it still doesn't work - only way to boot in seems to be to put any disc in the usb disc drive I have [17:29] however I'm wanting to move this PC back into the cupboard (away from monitors - managed via rdp) once setup so this won't be possible [17:29] !bootinfo | NF19 [17:29] NF19: Boot info script is a usefull script for diagnosing boot problems.

[18:38] no [18:38] this is just a desktop environment [18:38] test [18:38] do you have a web browser? [18:39] yes [18:39] Hello. How can I update 14.04 to 14.10? [18:39] i downloaded chromium [18:39] Janusz, There is not a 14.10 [18:39] go to launchpad.net and register. When you have done that, send me a private message in launchpad (my username is the same there as it is here) [18:39] Beldar, but I would like to test pre-release [18:40] launchpad.net is one of the support channels for ubuntu. [18:40] Janusz - looking to break stuff again? [18:40] Janusz, you have 6 months to do that. [18:41] fballem, when there will be an option to test 14.10? [18:41] when they build it. I think if you are on the daily build, you will get it when it's done. I think they usually wait about a week or two before switching versions. [18:42] Janusz: ubuntu 14.04 just cam out, calm down [18:42] xangua, in past there was an option to test even very early build of upcoming release [18:43] Janusz: I think they take a 2 weeks break before they merge the debian experimental branch and start over again. [18:43] popcorn, are you still there. [18:43] yes [18:43] im logged into launchpad [18:43] were do i go now [18:44] minimec, So, You think that in beginning of May there may be an option to test 14.10, or it will take place later? [18:44] fballem [18:44] yes [18:44] ^^^^^ [18:44] sorry, my launchpad name is flavelle.ballem [18:44] Janusz, best thing to do is joining #ubuntu+1, this channel is for next release support [18:45] were do i go to start a privet massage [18:45] there is an option to search for a user. Once you find me, there is an option to contact this user. [18:45] have you registered on launchpad? [18:45] OerHeks, constructive advice. TU [18:45] Janusz: That is exactly what I think. ;) === sz0` is now known as sz0 [18:46] I've installed bunblebee. How do I check which drivers are active? [18:46] there is no !14.10 factoid yet. [18:47] i sent it fballem [18:47] Janusz: You can always check the release schedule here... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReleaseSchedule [18:48] minimec, constructive advice. TU [18:48] how to get the damned trayicons whitelisted on trusty? [18:48] 14.10 does not even have a name yet [18:49] fballem [18:49] g!0@r#D$oN === coinsen is now known as coin3d [18:50] Hi === cheesecakes is now known as pinklips212 [18:50] I have installed Xubuntu 14.04 Trusty Turd [18:50] And it runs good!!! [18:51] hmm, I just dist-upgraded a maverick (1865.02) ubuntu all the way up to 12.04 LTS and now it says there are no never versions, but according to topic here there's a 14.04 version too? [18:51] hey guys, i have 3 screens powered by 2 video cards. i can't drag windows from the 2 screens to the third?? [18:54] xMopxShell: Are they all visible in the 'Display' GUI? what does xrandr give you as output in a terminal? [18:54] Hi [18:54] is any one there??? [18:54] lol [18:54] gustavo: Please use the correct name [18:54] hi [18:54] popcan - check your e-mail. [18:54] how do i set up google public dns from gui settings [18:54] minimec: display gui or nvidia settings? [18:55] Judas-: yes, there is a 14.04 LTS version out.. not sure why you're not seeing it.. you've updated all the repos and such? === Stmeter- is now known as Stmeter [18:55] xMopxShell: In your case nvidia settings, if you use the nvidia restricted driver. [18:55] yeah, theyre all visible. ill get xrandr output.. [18:56] xMopxShell: So xrandr wount give you some info either I guess.

[18:58] Or do trustys still work [18:58] phao: if you have the optimus then most probably intel :P [18:58] xMopxShell: I guess that's the internal GPU of your (probably) Intel i3/5/7 CPU. [18:58] Hi! [18:58] saucy i mean [18:59] I have installed ubuntu 14.04, a clean installation [18:59] minimec: i have the internal GPU from my CPU disabled via the bios. [18:59] but my usb 3.0 doesn't work on this port. only in the usb 2.0 port [18:59] slart: I think so - it is hitting de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu according to the sources.list [18:59] Popcorn - are you still here? [18:59] could you help me?? [18:59] kupo_: ask the ppa maintainer to upload 14.04 packages to their ppa [18:59] kupo_: You'#ll get them from the same place you got the earlier release's, but, whoever created the ppa you used may not have got round to making one for 14.04 or may have abandoned their project [19:00] so eventually they'll just show up in launchpad most likely? [19:01] ztane, lshw shows both drivers... [19:01] Judas-: well.. not sure what to suggest then.. sorry [19:01] ztane, how do make an app run with the nvidia card? [19:01] maybe I should try change precise to whatever 14.04 is called manually [19:02] nobody know about my problem?? [19:02] !ppa | kupo_ see the list there for PPAs [19:02] kupo_ see the list there for PPAs: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

[19:02] ok. thanks [19:02] Judas- sudo do-release-upgrade -d works, but it takes at least 2 hours and you must stay present to confirm some changes === pinklips212 is now known as cheescakes [19:02] My friend says Linux is not capable of such things. [19:02] minecraft [19:02] lol [19:02] And I want to prove him wrong. [19:02] when i boot my laptop it boots to a black command line that says ttyl [19:03] phao: i had the optimus chipset, it basically never uses nvidia unless you do tricks [19:03] xMopxShell: Ok... Somehow two monitors DVI-I-2 and DVI-I-3 are seen and handled by xrandr, but not the third one. [19:03] 0Saddict - do you use Steam in Windows? [19:03] Yes. [19:03] you can kill your comp with minecraft plus all those texture packs and mods [19:03] minimec: i dont even know what that means :) [19:03] Besides minecraft. [19:03] OSaddict there's also #ubuntu-steam [19:03] OSaddict: tf2 [19:03] many of those games have been ported to Steam in Linux - which does run in Ubuntu. [19:03] OSaddict: there's left 4 dead 2, Metro 2033... not sure what else [19:03] l4d2 [19:03] xMopxShell: They should show up in the 'Display' GUI (not nvidia-settings) [19:04] do you want to stress test your hardware or what [19:04] anyone [19:04] MonkeyDust: ok trying with the -d option then - here goes nothing.. :) [19:04] minimec: i dont think i even have that [19:04] OSaddict: not that I'd call that top of the line graphics.. but still [19:04] OSaddict: or you can run that benchmark.. with the floating islands.. can't remember the name at the moment [19:04] Something along the lines of BF4 [19:04] hi how can i change the sidebar in nautilus (14.04) from places to tree like it was possible in 12.04? [19:04] 0Saddict - do a google search for Steam and Linux. [19:04] you will get some more information there. [19:05] minimec: ive got nvidia settings and arandr [19:05] its heaven benchmark [19:05] Judas- let me know if it works for you too [19:05] popcorn [19:05] xMopxShell: Check the system settings... -> gnome-control-center in unity or gnome-shell [19:05] this is what it shows me the output of dmesg | grep usb http://paste.ubuntu.com/7286114/ [19:05] are you still here? [19:05] OSaddict: i dont think you will get something like this working on linux well [19:05] minimec: i have nothing related to unity or gnome. [19:06] OSaddict: this was the benchmark I was looking for http://unigine.com/products/heaven/ [19:06] MonkeyDust: so far it seems to have started the upgrade [19:07] xMopxShell: We are talking about the default system settings gui of a gnome based desktop manager. You should have that. It's installed per default. [19:07] I've got a high-powered comp. I just want to demonstrate some intense 3d gaming on Linux. [19:07] minimec: ive removed it to use the LXDE window manager. [19:07] 0Saddict - best to checkout Steam for Linux and go from there. [19:08] arandr "is" the default monitor gui. [19:08] OSaddict: yup, agree with fballem.. go with steam [19:08] 0Saddict - what type of graphics card do you have in your system? [19:09] I just upgraded to 14.04, and it appears that GRUB was broken. I get dropped into the rescue prompt with the message "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found." [19:10] hi [19:10] when i turn on my laptop it boots to a black terminal that says tty1 [19:10] sudo launchpad-getkeys doesnt work in 14.04 yet it seems. [19:11] xMopxShell: http://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXDE:Questions#Which_tool_is_used_for_configuring_screen_resolution_in_LXDE.3F [19:11] !games | OSaddict [19:11] OSaddict: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://www.penguspy.com/ [19:11] xMopxShell: http://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXRandr [19:11] minimec: Lxrandr only supports mirroring. which is why i have arandr. [19:12] minimec: which looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/5XQYjO8.png [19:12] xMopxShell: So you configured your xrandr for two screens only and were successfull at least for these two... [19:14] minimec: lxrander lists only the 2 screens that arandr shows as well. [19:14] hi guys [19:14] minimec: i think the 3rd screen is in a separate x session…? [19:14] ubuntu on SSD works nice [19:14] very fast. [19:14] i got the samsung evo 240GB...fast shlt [19:14] Hi. I've installed bumblebee and when I try to "optrun firefox" I get http://pastie.org/9093946 ... any clues on how I fix it? I can post more info of course... but idk what to post. This is ubuntu 14.04 [19:15] xMopxShell: You would then have to login seperately to that session [19:15] hi phao [19:15] Pushy, heya [19:15] minimec: thats not an option. it should work as a normal screen. [19:15] okie [19:16] hey guys, any improvement on 14.04? [19:16] minimec: i can move my cursor to the other screen. but not windows, and theres not another way to login? [19:16] i've been updating it but i have no idea why so [19:17] Pushy, http://www.techdrivein.com/2014/04/15-ubuntu-1404-lts-new-features-changes.html [19:17] hi [19:17] * leuApodo2 jumps [19:17] kostkon, come on man, all improvement on sound wall paper , background and shlt like that/ [19:18] you got to be kidding me [19:18] Pushy, don't use it then [19:18] kostkon, more like the look. [19:18] hmm [19:18] * leuApodo2 everything ok? [19:18] I just upgraded to 14.04, and it appears that GRUB was broken. I get dropped into the rescue prompt with the message "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found." [19:18] who care about the appearance...so basically nothing really new [19:18] is there a way to make a live cd where when i install buuntu it automatically installs my apps liek dropbox and gimp runs commands like to add b43 driver [19:19] xMopxShell: Do you have the restricted nvidia driver installed? I you removed that once? Check /etc/X11/Xorg.0.log once to see what driver you use. The opensource driver would be 'nouveau' for a nvidia card. [19:19] is new linux low on ram [19:19] there is more new than ou think [19:19] i don't use unity though. xubuntu master race [19:19] kostkon, they should improve technical shlt...not just the appearance [19:19] minimec: would nouveau be the one that's enabled by default? [19:20] xMopxShell: for nvidia yes. === XDS2010__ is now known as XDS2010 [19:20] minimec: that one did not allow me to use the 3rd screen entirely. [19:20] xMopxShell: I guess you are using it at leaast for the GPU with the 'working monitors' [19:21] Pushy, they did, e.g. http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2014/04/docker-in-ubuntu-ubuntu-in-docker.html [19:21] minimec: if i remove the nvidia restricted driver, the 3d screen doesn't power on. [19:22] Alright, Left 4 Dead 2, it is! [19:22] hi all [19:22] leurian how are you? [19:22] MonkeyDust: "The upgrade has completed but there were errors during the upgrade process" [19:22] xMopxShell: Maybe you have to activate it in arandr. [19:22] minimec: how? it's not listed. [19:23] Hey [19:23] I read somewhere that some of the Linux Steam games use a native port of DirectX. Is that true? [19:23] leurian hi all [19:23] Guys, iḿ new to Linux.. Anyone has any tips for me? [19:23] Hey, After restart by brightness level is not the previous value. How can I fix this problem? [19:23] OSaddict, no. They use opengl [19:24] Judas- yes, i guess it's harmless, fonts or so === matthew is now known as Guest95137 [19:24] Senza: Learn basic terminal commands. You'll get some stuff done faster in the terminal than with a GUI. [19:24] volkan: is this on a laptop? === Guest95137 is now known as MHodge [19:24] Do you have a good website or something to learn the basics? :) [19:25] Senza: Don't be afraid of the command line. [19:25] The command line if your friend. :) [19:25] Senza click here and there, see what's where, what it does, how it's called etc [19:25] MonkeyDust: besides this it seems to be running some form of 14.04 LTS now :) [19:25] and yes, seemed to be mostly something latex thai stuff and such [19:25] Senza: I don't. But google "linux terminal basics" to find some helpful pages. [19:25] Judas- yes, rings a bell ;) [19:25] Senza: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/Bash-Beginners-Guide.html [19:26] Thanks guys, i'm looking forward to my new adventures in Linux [19:26] how to install .bundle ? [19:26] xMopxShell: So the 2nd GPU is not well supported by randr. Other way would be to run them all with the restricted driver, but I have no experience with two GPU's. I have a dual monitor setup with a Intel i5 internal GPU. [19:26] with commandline ? [19:26] Pushy: Whats ".bundle"? [19:26] Senza: And Linux software is handled in packages. Some packages depend on others, which depend on others. [19:26] minimec: how is it that an 8 year old, very common GPU, isn't supported? [19:27] Yeah i knew about that, was also planning on setting up a test-network whitin Linux Red Hat servers (Domain Controller, File Server and stuff) [19:27] I'm studieing System engineer and i feel ashamed that i know NOTHING about Linux... [19:27] xMopxShell: probably due to poor driver support for a gpu [19:27] xMopxShell: You're right. That should work. [19:27] is there any easy way to get notify-send to respect timeout values? I'm aware that notify-osd has deliberately decided to ignore such timeouts, but I really need the ability to change display timeouts! [19:28] isaacdownlow, notify-osd ignores them yeah [19:28] isaacdownlow, by design [19:28] So my Hardrive has been chugging away for awhile now and I have nothing but this IRC open [was doing it before IRC also] any idea of a GUI i can use to tell me what's causing it? [19:29] kostkon: is there any notify-osd alternative that I could plug notify-send into for special cases? I don't think it's a good idea to completely get rid of notify-osd (I'm assuming it's been well designed for most stuff), but I'd like to be able to pop a notification with a timeout in a very specific case [19:29] xMopxShell: Do you use nVidia? [19:29] OSaddict: yes, both cards [19:29] isaacdownlow, there are some, search in the repos [19:30] right now im trying removing nouveau entirely [19:30] is there a way to make a live cd where when i install buuntu it automatically installs my apps liek dropbox and gimp runs commands like to add b43 driver [19:30] xMopxShell: DOn't do that! [19:30] xMopxShell: nVidia is a nightmare on Linux. Very hit-and-miss. You should try both the open-source drivers and nVidia's own drivers. [19:30] xMopxShell: If your nvidia drivers screw up, nouveau is what you will use while you're troubleshooting it. [19:31] hi [19:31] ah. how should i use the restricted driver for all present gpus/ [19:31] is it possible to install pidgin-otr? [19:31] ?* [19:31] I've been having an issue with GRUB since I updated. I get the rescue prompt on boot. === DalekSec_ is now known as DalekSec [19:32] okay19: Boot up your live CD and run: sudo grub-install /dev/sda [19:32] is new ubuntu highly optimized ? [19:32] sharefree meaning? [19:32] isaacdownlow: the notification daemon needs to own org.freedesktop.Notifications on dbus so you can't really have two running at a time [19:33] OSaddict, That will not work, and you do not know it is sda. [19:33] OSaddict: I'm using EFI, and grub-install refuses to run. [19:33] OSaddict: But it actually is sda. [19:33] xMopxShell, what does that mean? [19:33] okay19: Assuming that your hard disk is called sda. If you've got a legacy IDE drive, it's hda. [19:33] there are restricted drivers only for AMD and Nvidia GPUs (and some other rare ones) [19:34] AStorm: minimec suggested running both cards with the restricted driver, instead of nouveau. [19:34] most machines now have an additional iGPU [19:34] which cards? [19:34] 9400 GS and GTX 560 Ti [19:34] i cant enter #ubuntu+1 because it's invite only ... can anyone help with the issue of changing volume in 14.10 skipps the audio [19:34] both nvidia. [19:34] 9400 GS won't work with new nvidia-driver I think [19:34] Hi all. Problem in 14.04 64Bit on HP EliteBook 2170p: The brightness toggle does not work. This didn't work: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2136133&p=12606489#post12606489 [19:34] but it's worth a shot [19:34] what does that mean? [19:34] it's *old* [19:35] OSaddict: I can use a live CD to get a GRUB command line, and then use the configfile command to load the boot menu. [19:35] okay19: try this: grub-install /dev/sda --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --recheck --debug [19:35] AStorm: installing nvidia-331 is the only way ive gotten the 9400GS to even power on it's monitor [19:35] MonkeyDust, meaning ubuntu can bear old shitty hardware now [19:35] hi [19:35] OSaddict: What does the --debug switch do? [19:36] bombshell [19:36] is it just me or the ubuntu mirror are overloaded ? [19:36] trism: bah humbug [19:36] helllo i have lost my password and i have tryed all tactacs exept one. and i need someones help with that. [19:36] orogor, yes, mirrors are smokin' due the new release [19:36] Any idea? under 13.10 it worked out of the box [19:36] xMopxShell the 9400GS is only supported with the nouveau driver, while the GTX560 only seems to work with the restricted driver right now, as it looks. bad situation... [19:36] !password | zsw__ [19:36] zsw__: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes.

If that company would share the knowledge with the community, they would run... ;) [19:38] volkan, and location ( some ISP block torrents) [19:38] OerHeks, I tried different sources. [19:38] does canonical run freenode? didnt know [19:38] Hello, I'm having trouble with cobbler on ubuntu 12.04. I am running into bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cobbler/+bug/1000219 [19:38] minimec: so it sounds like it's impossible to use both cards under ubuntu? [19:38] Launchpad bug 1000219 in cobbler (Ubuntu) "cobbler does not recognise 12.04 server iso" [Medium,Confirmed] [19:38] dw1: It doesnt. [19:38] dw1: It's a fake.

[19:38] bekks: ah k [19:38] dw1, that's just a notice, anyone can send it [19:38] DalekSec: yea figured that, just wondered if it was semi accurate [19:39] anyone is going for a spin?

I took me 4 hours jut to download the crunchbang iso! [19:39] AStorm: yeah [19:39] I've already tried changing $suite to precise, but I get this error "mirror does not have any suite symlinks" [19:39] I also get release precise not found. [19:39] Can anyone help me out? [19:40] anybody know how to make a custom folder icon? like i have an image, need to get it to icon format [19:40] so what i did is i downloaded ubuntu 14.04 just now and someone told me if i delete the hash for my pass that i could axscces my account without a pass [19:40] macscam1: You mean for a specific folder? [19:40] G [19:41] OSaddict yea [19:41] zsw__: is your home folder encrypted? [19:42] zsw__: if not, just boot into repair prompt and run passwd as root [19:42] multbrech, nice jesture but no [19:42] zsw__: or ctrl-alt-f1 from login screen, alt-f7 to get back [19:42] macscam1: Just click the big folder icon in "Properties" [19:42] zsw__: if you can login there...... [19:43] xMopxShell: That I cannot tell you for sure, as I don't have experience with nvidia anymore. I used to have one but right now I stick with my internal GPU. And if you activated the internal Intel GPU and used it with the GTX560? [19:43] macscam1: PNG format is the one that's always used. IDK if others would work also. [19:43] really,dwl i have no idea [19:43] OSaddict surprisingly simple thanks [19:44] give me a sec [19:44] if I run an application with optirun, it'll necessarily use my nvidia driver, right? [19:44] hi [19:44] minimec: id rather not, the internal GPU isn't set up for windows / OSX on the same hardware, and i'd rather not need to change plugs every time i boot to a different partition.

[19:46] OSaddict: of the nvidia driver? [19:46] xMopxShell: You could search on the internet whether there is some experimental support of the gtx560 with the nouveau driver. That might be a solution. I guess the official 14.04 only ships a stable driver, not an experimental one. [19:46] I've had computers that couldn't run 13.10, but could run 12.04. [19:47] any proper documentation on the ubuntu terminal commands anywhere?

How do I do that? When I try to edit my EFI partition, I can't set the mountpoint [21:00] xtjacob: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [21:00] s7x, so do it. install pavucontrol and seen if guitar rig appears in recording [21:01] so it says I have to set the /boot/efi mount point to the EFI partition. How do I do that? When I try to edit my EFI partition, I can't set the mountpoint [21:03] I see in recording tab, guitar rig stream #6 === xubuntu is now known as Guest1107 [21:03] s7x, can you select a device for it? [21:04] kostkon, not sure what you mean...in the device tab? [21:04] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/eUPeO6Ic [21:04] input device tab i mean [21:04] k1l_: === kroson_ is now known as kroson [21:05] adam_____: that is a lot of 3rd party repos [21:05] yup [21:06] adam_____: the chances are high that some PPA causes that error (like its mentioned in that askubuntu thread) [21:06] for example, I need latest 2.9.x GIMP for 16-bit colour chanel [21:06] apt-get is complaining about unmet dependencies and apt-get -f install refused to fix them, but aptitude looks like it is working though. I might be okay. [21:07] k1l_: so, here's thing. How do I disable most of them or exclude them from upgrade and then re add them? [21:07] is there a way to tell where is command running from? I want to replace firefox with nightly, so I thought about replacing symlink somewhere (dont know where yet) :D [21:07] ewooy: use who [21:08] s7x, in recording i mean. [21:08] only works if the command is currently running though [21:08] !ppa-purge | adam_____ [21:08] dioioib: how would who help me? Isn't this showing only who is logged in?

I'll give that a go [21:09] with that user [21:09] so many ppa's, i hope for you that ppapurge can handle it [21:09] would that stop those programs from working? [21:09] What is the url for the xubuntu iso please ? i cannot find it at ubuntu.com [21:09] or just leave them out from the updates? [21:10] adam_____: that will revert to official ubuntu versions [21:10] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/14.04/release/ [21:10] and why has ubuntu decided to make it so hard to choose whether or not you want the xubuntu or educational iso etc ? [21:10] hmm [21:10] you could readd them afterwards [21:10] hello, where can i ask questions about linux installing?:D [21:10] ewooy: or you might want to run this if the command is not running $ history [21:10] localg0d: xubuntu.orgedubuntu.org google.com [21:10] localg0d, xubuntu.com ? [21:11] adam_____: the problem is that those modified packages can make the upgrade to stop [21:11] ok.. say gimp as an example [21:11] dioioib: Command is not running, when I type firefox into terminal I want to know where is it ran from [21:11] ewooy: that will only show your user though [21:12] ewooy: oh you just want to find the dir. just use $ find firefox [21:12] that's easy because I can just install from downloaded executable until they update the developer ppa that has the version I need === btree_ is now known as btree [21:12] i tried xubuntu.com but thank you xangua [21:12] I would like to clean it up anyway. how do I remove one of the ppas?

[21:13] I did the sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop on the other system already and it is running as we speak.. already done downloading and installing [21:13] ewooy: `which firefox` will tell you the path of 'firefox'. === Guest66118 is now known as odd_perfect [21:13] like find . firefox [21:13] what I would really like to see is which ppa it choked on when doing the upgrade [21:13] Hello, I am trying to get Guitar rig to work under wine. It loads up just fine, but I cannot seem to select any other input device other than pulseaudio which doesnt channel into Guitar rig and work..so I need to fix this from a wine standpoint? I tried installed jackd server but still can only select pulseaudio in wine as the audio device (sound card) [21:13] ewooy: If you want to use a different version that you installed, add it to your /usr/local/bin, and that'll be founf before the package version. [21:14] what is LTS stand for? [21:14] hi [21:14] dioioib: not quite [21:14] !lts | Pushy [21:14] Pushy: LTS means Long Term Support.

[21:15] ''type firefox'' is better [21:15] i've never used type [21:15] Pushy: do you have a technical ubuntu support issue? [21:15] run ''help type'' to read about it [21:15] doing that now [21:16] dioioib: No, his question was "what's being run when I type 'firefox'" not "where are firefox(es) on my system" [21:16] Helloo Linux World, I am the Novice :) [21:16] k1l_, can microsoft 2010 install in ubuntu? [21:16] dioioib: Anyway, as for find, it would be find . -name firefox to look for a file named firefox from the current directory [21:16] hello, ive done today my first linux install and ive got some problems. it worked fine at first, then ive installed the upgrades popping up. now it hangs when booting up. can anyone help? [21:17] Flannel: And which does not answer that; type does [21:17] geirha: why in the world would you need to use find for something in the current directory [21:17] in that case you would know where it was [21:17] dioioib: are you kidding me? [21:17] Nějaký Čech tu asi není, což? [21:17] Pushy: last chance: do you have a technical ubuntu support issue?

[21:18] that is not much different then using grep to find all files with the tag firefox including any scripts. [21:18] !cz [21:18] České uživatele žádáme, aby mluvili v kanále #ubuntu anglicky. Česky je možno se domluvit v #ubuntu-cz. Děkujeme. [21:18] Flannel: If firefox was an alias or function, type would say so, which would not === nsh_ is now known as nsh [21:19] xangua: do you mind telling me how i might change the bootlist to boot windows first ? for some reason i cannot find that setting in the administrative settings section.. [21:19] geirha: sounds like type is the way to go then [21:19] type is a shell builtin, which is a pointless and badly written shell script [21:19] geirha: does it have a shorter run cycle. I can't use it on my current system [21:19] If I were to format my partition, then install 13.03, install some 3rd party software, then update to 14.04, would my 3rd party software still be there? [21:19] LostMyMind: 13.04 is EOL. Do not install it anymore. [21:20] LostMyMind: In addition, you would have to upgrade to 13.10 first, before you can upgrade to 14.04 [21:20] dioioib: shorter run cycle? [21:20] LostMyMind: why dont you start with 14.04 in first place? [21:20] geirha: well using find . firefox | grep Firefox takes a long time to run. hence it's run cycle [21:21] LostMyMind: ... and yes 3rd party software would still be present, but the repositories fpr updates would be disabled [21:22] dioioib: find is useless for it, use locate to have some flying expirience in terminal, and why would you have 2 versions of same browser installed, and how did you managed to do it? [21:22] well, I'm new to linux. The 3rd party software has a PPA for 13.03, but not for 14.04. It's one peice of software that is must-have for me. They have a downloadable file for manual installation, but apperently it's hard to install since certain dependancies aren't available on 14.04 [21:23] LostMyMind: Chances are good it wont run on 14.04 then. And 13.04 (not 13.03) is EOL - so you are out of luck actually. [21:23] qin: a I didn't install it. 2 if you compile from source you could. And find with a pipe to a grep works for finding almost anything in your system [21:23] LostMyMind: and what piece of software is it? [21:23] LostMyMind: that is not usable on 14.04 anyway [21:24] LostMyMind: which program is that? [21:24] Playstation3 media Server [21:24] ah, you again [21:24] dioioib: compile from source is bad idea, mozzilla will overwrite itself, unless you change installation paths [21:24] qin: firefox is easy to have on multiple versions, either the tarball or compiling, and each is pretty much standalone, however they have to be launched directly from their own folders [21:25] dioioib: find with exec makes sense with pipe little less [21:25] qin: I know. I am just giving you examples here. [21:25] dioioib: piping find to grep just shows that you don't know how to use the find command. But don't fret, it *is* a very complicated command. === kdsebastian is now known as djlanz24 [21:25] can anyone tell me how i get away from the default desktop settings ? turn off all the transitional effects etc ? [21:26] dioioib: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/UsingFind [21:26] localg0d, basically ... use another desktop [21:26] SofS: linky, since last time almost broken keyboard installing old fox ;) [21:26] lxdeskip or whatever [21:27] I install xubuntu but unfortunately when I selected xfce it will not run that desktop .. it runs the same looking desktop [21:27] :/ [21:27] I got it to install on my last distro, but that was linuxlite which was based on 13.03. Then randomly the whole system froze up. I had to push and hold power to turn it off. When I turned it back on, grub was gone. Wouldn't load anything. I reinstalled via dvd for 14.04, and now everything works again. But now I'm finding problems with ps3 media server, and flash on firefox. [21:27] can t choose another thing at the session login ? [21:27] Hey guys, I can't open libreoffice because it says I don't have access rights to ~/.config/libreoffice/4 How do I go about fixing it? [21:28] LostMyMind: talk to that PPA maintainer to make a package for 14.04 [21:28] Chuo, that s weirdo [21:28] Can anyone offer any advice on wireless for 14.04? My PCIe card (Ralink RT5392 using stock rt2860.bin) has stopped connecting to my home WPA2 network. It will connect to the network unsecured, and I've tried my phone as a hotspot and connected unsecured and with WPA2 there. I can scan for networks fine. Yesterday night I had Internet fine again, today it's back to no connectivity. [21:28] qui: well, it really only works if each is in its own folder, mixing with systemwide settings/folders would be sad [21:29] I'm not going to look for the individual topic again, but basically he wrote on his forum that there is a certain dependancy that isn't on 14.04. So the installation will be harder. Me being new to linux I couldn't even figure out how to install a tar.gz [21:30] geirha: the whole name search portion of find is really nice. thanks. [21:30] i have a problem with automounting of a partition ext4 [21:30] I'm not sure why the distro update doesn't have an option to ignore the optional sources I've included if their dependencies can't be satisfied [21:31] SofS: Sad is a bad word to discribe it. ;) Well for a moment using separate vbox for every ff ;) [21:31] I'd like to have to rebuild that myself if I really want to use it [21:31] how do I change the permissions to ~/.config/libreoffice$ using terminal [21:31] yi [21:31] hi [21:32] is it a file [21:32] or a directory SI [21:32] adam_____: that is the usual way. but what the installed packages cause is up to the packages. [21:32] r [21:32] sory for typos [21:32] im a lil drunk [21:32] and thinkk i screwed a rabit [21:33] this is my /etc/fstab http://pastebin.com/HiUsdrJJ [21:33] AP-: dont drink and irc. :) if you want to chat talk in #ubuntu-offtopic [21:33] qin: would not different profiles do the job instead of a full vbox? [21:33] Chuo: example 'chmod 660 ~/.config/libreoffice' [21:33] AP-: please leave the animals alone. [21:34] k1l_: so what you're saying is that the installed packackages may have changed the systems files? or what is part of the official distribution? [21:34] what would ubuntu-offtopic talk about? Sounds like a catch 22 [21:34] minimec: are those the permissions it needs 660? [21:34] adam_____: yes [21:34] !ot | LostMyMind [21:34] LostMyMind: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [21:35] ok.. so when I disable all the extras in sources, is there a way to revert the distro-affecting files (who cares if the stuff I added stops working)? [21:35] Chuo: http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/introduction_to_linux/linux_The_chmod_command.html [21:36] SofS: I dont know, ff is no bigge right now. No worries about it. [21:36] adam_____, ppapurge [21:36] Hey I am getting ready to begin a youtube channel. I am looking for a quallity webcam program. I love cheese but all its outputs are only webm and not mp4. is it recommended to record in webm and if so is there a way to increase the bitrates? I can go up to 720p on it but the output always has a bit of compression in the picture [21:37] So i am trying to install ubuntu on my mac i can boot from 13.10 usb drive i made but i cant from 14.04-mac [21:37] somebody? [21:38] Michael87: vlc? [21:38] eventho i can boot 14.04-mac on my pc [21:38] minimec: the problem is I don't know what permissions it needs and don't even know why is blocked, I only installed base and it wouldn't run, I have the feeling that if I uninstall it it won't change the permissions. [21:38] ubuntu-mac [21:38] qin, vlc? never thought about tryying that thanks [21:38] bray90820, i have fedora 20 in my Mac [21:38] what differences in performance can i expect when enabling unity 8 and mir? [21:38] sharto: it is a preview. [21:39] i need help with auto mount a partition ext4, somebody? [21:39] fedore guy do you have any experience with ubuntu on a mac [21:39] Chuo: 'mv ~/.config/libreoffice ~/.config/libreoffice-bak' would rename it (backup). Launching libreoffice would then create a new one with the according rights you need. [21:40] Bray90820, use a ubuntu iso for mac [21:40] bray90820: what are you looking for? [21:40] qin, thank you for the advice. its a start wither or not vlc is the best choice [21:40] k1l_: so it doesn't actually install unity 8 and mir? [21:41] Chuo: 660 should do, I guess... [21:41] Well i made two usb installs one of 13.10 and one of 14,04 mac edition i can't seem to boot the 13.10 boot fine on my mac but 14.04 won't boot [21:41] 14.04 boots on my pc tho [21:41] sharto: it does. but its like a trailer comparing to a full movie [21:42] minimec: 660 didn't work. How do I delete the folder? is not rm is it [21:42] sharto: please read the whole new and not just the headlines [21:42] e.g. the Unity 8 desktop UI is not finalized yet, so it's very tablet-y right now [21:42] bray90820: so these are both bootable usb keys or HDs? [21:42] k1l_: okay.. :[ [21:42] Bray90820, mmm use https://scottlinux.com/2011/06/14/how-to-dual-boot-os-x-and-linux/ [21:42] Michael87: probably not best, but its all rounder and well documented and tested [21:42] k1l_: thank you [21:42] dioioib: usb keys [21:43] rtorrent [21:43] bray90820: and how are you booting them now [21:43] Well on my mac i am holding down option key when i boot [21:44] Chuo: 'mv' is better as it does rename the folder and you have a backup. 'rm' would indeed delete the file. 'chmod 777' would give full acces to everyone... [21:44] bray90820: for 14.04 how is the key formated? [21:44] C or D key to boot [21:44] Chuo: Wait! 'chmod -R 660 ~/.config/libreoffice. [21:45] minimec: yeah but it doesn't matter because libre should create again, rm didn't work though [21:45] dioioib: do you mean partition type [21:45] yes [21:45] dioioib: fat 32 [21:46] Chuo: '-R' apply changes to all the files in the folder. As I told you... 'mv' is always better. [21:46] Hello, I am trying to get Guitar rig to work under wine. It loads up just fine, but I cannot seem to select any other input device other than pulseaudio which doesnt channel into Guitar rig and work..so I need to fix this from a wine standpoint? I tried installed jackd server but still can only select pulseaudio in wine as the audio device (sound card) [21:46] bray90820: the only thing I could suggest trying are remake your key or try a boot manager like this http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ [21:47] dioioib: this is teh second time i am making the key [21:47] what program did you use? [21:47] I had someone in here the other day that ran into an issue using one of the programs that auto makes your usb keys [21:48] minimec: I used rm -r -f, it opens now [21:48] minimec: thanks [21:48] Chuo: No problem ;) [21:48] dioioib: first i tried the one that came with ubuntu and then i tried Universal USB Installer on windows [21:50] Hi I got a new computer with ubuntu. i had 13.10 but couldn't get my network to work. i went out and got an intel card but that doesn't work either. no ip address. I now upgraded to 14.04 and I got an IP address. I can ping but I get around 12000ms to google com and 56% packet loss. The site itself won't load. I tested the computer with windows and that works just fine. [21:50] just ubuntu doesn't work [21:50] bray90820: let me go over my chat logs. brbr [21:50] other computers work just fine, also on that cable [21:51] http://users.ninthfloor.org/~brutus/faillog.txt [21:52] http://users.ninthfloor.org/~brutus/dmesg.txt [21:52] http://users.ninthfloor.org/~brutus/syslog.txt [21:52] dioioib: could it be that i am using the mac iso of 14.04 [21:54] to make your key? Well if you have tried both programs to burn the ISO at this point that would be the only difference between what you did and what he did. [21:55] dioioib: so should i just use the desktop version on my mac [21:55] what version were you trying cloud or server? [21:56] dioioib: sorry i misspoke i am using the desktop version what i was asking is if i should use the non mac version [21:56] it depends on your apple machine, check the mactel pages > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages [21:57] bray90820: do you know where to get your mac version code? [21:58] dioioib: do you mean like 8,1 or whatever [21:58] ye [21:58] s [21:58] I will find it hang on === freeman__ is now known as FreeWin [22:00] hi ppl [22:01] having so many packages, I'd like to know which ones are making the upgrade to 14.04 choke [22:01] dioioib: It's 8,1 [22:01] this was not such a big headache going from 13.04 to 13.10.. grrrr [22:01] hey guys, I'm having trouble using my mic [22:01] adam_____, backup your data and fresh install will be the fastest option, i guess [22:02] Could somebody help me get ubuntu to recognize it? [22:02] ugh.. [22:02] i have problems with live usb 14.04.4 [22:02] bray90820: the support matrix says there really isn't a version that best supports your hardware. [22:02] it's just one of those little audio jack mics, not usb [22:02] 12.04.4 [22:02] my bad :) [22:02] dioioib: so does that mean i shouldn't install ubuntu on it? [22:02] too many things installed to just blast the whole machine [22:02] adam_____, we warn especially for PPA's, as these things can happen [22:03] I would expect that with windows [22:03] adam_____: one more reason to nuke it ;) [22:03] Don't blaim ubuntu., [22:03] I don't have windows [22:03] bray90820: well if you do you might run into the odd issue with hardware. Just try your live boot and see what you can and can't do before you install it. [22:03] 12.04.3 and 12.04.2 live usb works great but not 12.04.4 [22:03] I'm not dual booting [22:03] OerHeks: I'm blaming ubuntu that my netowrk isn't workin but if I install windows on it it works out of the box [22:03] hmmmm [22:03] it's like a reversed world on my pc [22:03] :S [22:04] dioioib: Well on 12.04 i could do pretty much everything [22:04] Brutus, wired or wireless? [22:04] wired [22:05] bray90820: then you might want to stick with that version for now. [22:05] i reinstalled with 14.04 now (was on 13.10 with no wired) and I finally get an ip [22:05] Bray90820: 12.04 is still supported... and 14.04 just came up, good habit to give it dry run before deploying [22:05] when I ping google: 46% packetloss, time 12037ms [22:05] dioioib: Well i could just install 13.10 and upgrade to 14.04 but won't me the mac iso [22:05] everything else is working fine, windows on that same box works fine [22:06] I'm getting so annoyed with this :S [22:06] so apparently I can change the IP address on my router and not get disconnected? [22:06] bray90820: looks like 13.04 is supported. [22:06] dioioib: 13.04 is EOL. [22:06] OerHeks: enig idee? [22:06] bekks: that sucks [22:07] no listing for 13.10 [22:07] dioioib: are you telling me not to upgrade to 14.04 from 13.10 [22:07] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro [22:07] OerHeks: I posted the dmesg, syslog and faillog a few minutes ago [22:07] Brutus so it works? [22:07] Brutus: is that a wired network or wifi. Internal device or USB? [22:07] no it doesn't [22:07] i can't do anything [22:07] minimec: pci intel gt1000 pro card [22:08] bray90820: I am saying that I wouldn't right now. qin's advice would be what I would do. Try it on live CD/DVD/USB and see if it works well before installing. [22:08] Brutus: does ping 8.8.8.8 works any better? [22:08] i get an ip, i can ping (with half of the packages being lost, huuuuuge ping) but can't reach anything [22:08] Brutus, ah that problematic intel 1000 NIC [22:08] qin: already tried, same problem [22:08] but seeing as it doesn't even boot on your mac I think I would avoid it. [22:08] OerHeks: getting the same problems with the internal card [22:08] actually, not even getting an ip on that [22:08] :S [22:08] Brutus: Can you give me the complete line of lspci for that card? [22:08] minimec: i'm sorry? [22:08] dioioib: i can't really boot a live usb of ubuntu 14.04 [22:09] oh wait that's a command [22:09] bray90820: do you have CD/DVD? [22:09] dioioib: the download is over 700MB and i don't have any free dvds [22:10] http://pastebin.com/esySLgyP [22:10] minimec: that's the lspci [22:11] dioioib: i will just use 13.10 and upgrade to 14,04 if it doesn't work for me i will just remove it [22:11] bray90820: that sounds like a plan. [22:11] livecd gives the same problems for me [22:12] 13.10 no ip address, nothing at all. 14.04 an ip address, just can't do anything with it [22:12] dioioib: what even is the difference between the mac and non mac iso [22:12] bray90820: have you thought about installing it to a VM? [22:12] manually set 8.8.8.8 as dns, doesn't work, huge package loss, huge latency === Kitar|st_ is now known as Kitar|st [22:13] bray90820: not much just some low level hardware and drivers mostly. There are limitations on bootable partitions that the OS sees too. you need special bootloaders to run on mac as well. With ufi booting things are supose to be easier though. [22:13] hi [22:14] dioioib: A vm a possibility but it just emulates the hardware from osx so it won't really tell me if something like bluetooth works or not [22:14] minimec: any idea? [22:14] bray90820: yeah that was the problem for me to I needed hardware access for some electronics work. [22:14] I've got a small problem with ubuntu 14.04: sometimes the sound gets a little distorted for a few seconds [22:15] I don't exactly know what's "triggering" it [22:15] it occurs every few minutes [22:17] Brutus: Well I see that that special card is making problems for years now. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1003512 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/309211 [22:17] Launchpad bug 309211 in linux (Ubuntu) "Intel Gibabit Ethernet NIC (82541PI) operating at 100Mbps instead of 1000Mbps after upgrading to Hardy" [Medium,Invalid] [22:18] well 100mbit would be an upgrade at this moment :S [22:18] Hi, was upgrading ubuntu on server by ssh an the terminal froze, I managed to ssh back into the server but it was half way through a upgrade how do I get it to carry on with the server upgrade? [22:19] Brutus: Some suggested to use a driver provided by Intel, but that was some years ago. I guess by now the linux kernel uses the best available module. You may be able to tune the card settings in a file in /etc/modprobe.d/82541PI.conf [22:19] roy_: apt-get dist-upgrade? [22:20] minimec: that file doesn't exist [22:21] Brutus: you would need to create it, if you need it [22:21] and you shouldnt [22:21] oh [22:21] Brutus: the kernel module is likely the "best" option [22:21] holstein: i don't understand that last sentence [22:21] Brutus: then, you would read about, and learn to tune from there, such as that file referenced [22:21] I suppose I shouldn't change the IP address while I'm rsyncing stuff to the server should I? [22:22] cknox: no you shouldn't [22:22] Brutus: I know. If there are some config options for the driver, you would have to place these options there. [22:22] Brutus: the driver that is *already* in the kernel.. likely the "best", minimec is suggesting [22:23] ok this starts making less sense to me [22:24] guys need help for installing amd apu driver in ubuntu. [22:25] i want to install the proprietary drivers for it. [22:25] euryale: want or need? how are the open ones? they are usually "best" [22:25] !ati | euryale [22:25] euryale: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [22:25] I want to upgrade to 14.04 from 13.10, but is the upgrade going to break PPA packages? [22:26] kostkon: wont let me, says its locked [22:26] PPA packages include graphic card driver. [22:26] crocket: ppa's are not supported officially so, yes [22:26] crocket: likely [22:26] hell [22:26] crocket: you upgrade, then add what you want/need back [22:27] I guess I want to upgrade after ensuring PPA packages don't break. [22:27] @holstein. i don't it seen kind of not laggy, the is not fluid? [22:27] what i mean was, the animation for window spread is not fluid, but it's not laggy. [22:27] euryale: the proprietaru one could be worse.. dont expect it to fix anything [22:27] euryale: try it and see [22:27] Brutus: Some suggested to load the driver like this "modprobe e1000 AutoNeg=0x28" [22:27] ok [22:31] Brutus: Try the following command ... [22:31] Brutus: echo "options e1000 TxIntDelay=0 TxAbsIntDelay=10 RxIntDelay=0 RxAbsIntDelay=10 InterruptThrottleRate=0 SmartPowerDownEnable=0" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/e1000.conf [22:31] minimec: that last one did something. i can now after the modprobe reach my internal network! [22:31] website of my router just loaded [22:31] Brutus: That creates a config file with some settings that might work... [22:32] Brutus: Source in german... at the end http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/netzwerkgeschwindigkeit-instabil-nur-rmmod-mod/ [22:32] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcuqxj5YTA8 [22:33] anyone knows which channel is for kali linux? (its not kali or backtrack) [22:34] huh [22:34] Does ubuntu come with vdpau support? [22:35] ok i tried that minimec. my german is a bit rusty though [22:35] took a while but google was loaded. progress has been made! [22:36] Does ubuntu 14.04 come with vdpau support for nouveau? [22:36] i did the line but it doesn't appear to have effect or should I do a reboot? [22:36] Brutus: Now reboot or simply unload/load the driver without any option. Maybe check that the e1000.conf file was created in /etc/modprobe. [22:36] starting to see that libmono and anything that depends on it may be something to remove before upgrading to 14.04 [22:37] i'll just reboot, just as fast [22:37] logy: #kali-linux [22:38] Hi, I have some problems with perf : Failed to find path of kernel module. I did figure out that I need to set some soft links ... but from where ? [22:39] I have installed the kernel sources and the debug packages [22:39] minimec: did a reboot but didn't work. can't reach my internal network anymore either [22:42] Brutus: So delete that e1000.conf file again or try just to put 'options AutoNeg=0x28' in there instead of the 'junk' we have in there. [22:43] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/HzaDizjO [22:43] anything in here that looks fishy? [22:43] I still can't upgrade to 14.04 [22:44] there is an nvidea in there [22:44] but I thought that would be disabled by disabling 3rd party sources on the update [22:45] minimec: done, reboot and still the same [22:45] Brutus: ... or add that option to the other options? [22:45] there is an nvidea in there [22:45] takes a while before I can pin ganything [22:45] can do that as well [22:45] one moment [22:45] Bray90820: is that you, Tim? [22:46] adam_____: what did i do? [22:46] lol.. nothing [22:46] adam_____: why did you ping me [22:47] just wondering if it's you [22:47] adam_____: did you run ppa-purge against all third party repository you have as you were told? [22:47] you were trying trusty earlier [22:47] adam_____: If what is me [22:47] adam_____: you might want to purge cinnamon, that's gone in 14.04, could be breaking on newer libs [22:47] Brutus: Well I guess that is all I can do for you. You know the mechanism now, how to put some driver options for a driver. Maybe search the for other options like 'e1000 /etc/modrobe.d/ options'. Arch and gentoo forums are a good source besides the ubuntu forums. [22:48] Bray90820: wondering if you're Tim Bray [22:48] My name is Aaron [22:48] trism: that's my next try [22:48] xangua, he had so many ppa's, i wonder if ppapurge could handle that, reverse to original packages [22:48] adam_____: my name is Aaron not Tim [22:49] would it help buying a better network card? [22:49] Bray90820: no worries.. thought it would be an odd coincidence if it was [22:49] I would like ubuntu users to check out my site http://www.freemysql.org if you are new to linux and databases. [22:49] Ok [22:50] ubuntu is what i usually recommend to new linux users [22:50] ...zapping cinnamon [22:51] ouch [22:51] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/MKoiPfkn [22:51] adam_____: what service is that? [22:51] cinamon doesn't want to go [22:51] Brutus: it surely does, but verify linux support :) [22:51] i will [22:51] thanks for the help minimec [22:51] cnnx: ? [22:52] Brutus: No problem. [22:53] hey all [22:54] aptitude was able to make my interrupted upgrade from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 complete. There seem to be some missing parts. I no longer have a Gnome session (I can deal with that later) but I have no network connection. [22:55] I have been using the onboard wired ethernet provided by my (possibly broken) ASRock 990FX Extreme3 as eth0. I now don't seem to have an eth0. Is this a software issue or a hardware issue? [22:56] johnja: what sais "lspci"? [22:56] does your nic appear there? [22:57] So I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 and cannot get it to auto-login my account. I've noticed that if I create a second, that new account has the option to auto-login but not my primary account. I've also tried manually editing lightdm.conf but no luck. Anything else I can try? [22:58] lspci finishes off by telling me I have Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM57781 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 10) [22:58] ok, hardware is responding, try something like "ifconfig eth0 up" [22:58] as root [22:58] why does watching videos or css3 animations in firefox peg my cpu usage at 100% [22:59] eth0 ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device [22:59] eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device [22:59] strange [23:00] cinamon was the problem [23:00] Does anyone know the status of Cinnamon for 14.04? [23:00] if you want an easy upgrade to 14.04, get rid of cinamon [23:00] Hi, how do I upgrade my installation of python and python-twisted? [23:00] thanks for the help everyone [23:01] I apologize if came late to an already discussed topic. [23:01] I did a clean instal [23:01] i tried to do the update but it said i had apt-get open and it couldnt continue.. on a fresh boot :\ [23:01] johnja: does "lsmod | grep tg3" output something? [23:01] got rid of kde dependent stuff just in case and it zapped a whole bunch of stuff [23:01] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/DHU9VFJT [23:02] got rid of my digicam and hugin :/ [23:02] hey i just gotta say compiz annotations are pretty neat [23:02] how do I upgrade the version of python and twisted installed on my box? [23:02] Tunix: yes [23:02] you can just draw on the screen anywhere, put notes or reminders for yourself [23:02] tg3 166442 0 [23:03] ptp 18933 1 tg3 [23:03] I only wish the eraser was a clean eraser instead of a spraycan eraser [23:03] johnja: does "dmesg | grep -i tg3" output something? [23:04] johnja: Did you try software&updates GUI and check for additional drivers. There seem to be a driver provided by Broadcom... http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2020496.html [23:04] and why no 256 color capable terminal as default yet? [23:05] how do I upgrade twisted? I'm still using a very dated version. [23:05] minimec: is Broadcom still that secretive regarding their specs? [23:06] minimec: no, I'm currently without any network connectivity on this machine. [23:06] Tunix: Let's say it like this. I never understood why they use a bradcom chip in the raspberry pi... ;) [23:07] anyone had any luck getting autologin to work with the primary account (the one setup during installation)? [23:07] minimec: if I don't neet network for that, please give me instructions in as much detail as possible. I'm in an xubuntu desktop and not used to it. [23:07] it could be worse...realtek anyone? ;) (those nics work on linux, though) [23:07] I'm using compiz annotations to just draw on my screen which terminal windows are what [23:07] so I can find them again easily [23:07] johnja: You may be able to do the check even without network connection. You would at least know, if there is a driver available... [23:08] ok.. doing the upgrade [23:08] I'll add my missing stuff again after [23:08] Hi all, I just upgraded to 14.04 and the launch bar doesn't display the number of windows correctly. For example, if I start Firefox and then open a new window (for two total windows), there is only one white "tick" mark to the left of the firefox icon. If I then click on the firefox icon the two windows are shown and two ticks appear. If I select a window for focus and then close it, the two ticks are still there. Anyone else have this problem or a know [23:08] a solution? [23:09] toothe, ubuntu 14.04 got 13.2.0 http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/python-twisted looks pretty recent [23:09] heh, I'm there right now :-) [23:09] I guess I don't know how to translate that into an apt-get command. [23:10] So I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 and cannot get it to auto-login my account. I've noticed that if I create a second account, that new account has the option to auto-login but not my primary (first created) account. I've also tried manually editing lightdm.conf but no luck. Anything else I can try? [23:10] toothe, compared with http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads [23:10] minimec: I would like to try it, but don't understand how to do it. [23:10] * Tunix is sipping from his third cocktail, is actually quite fun following this channel :P [23:10] hi, how to check if my laptop is 64 or 32bit - to know which version of linux to install? [23:10] ugh.. this download will take 1 day and 17 hours [23:11] is there a better way to get this upgrade done faster? [23:11] so I did a strait distro upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 with plans to do a clean install later. For the most part it runs fine but since upgrade its frozen on me like 5 times today. is this 14.04 itself or becuase I did the distro upgrade? [23:11] adam_____: essentially no. [23:11] ziew, do you know which CPU model you have? [23:11] adam_____: try using a mirror near you? [23:11] wow.. pretty crazy [23:11] johnja: Go to the system settings -> Software&updates. Check the additional drivers tab... [23:11] adam_____: or upgrade your downlink ;) [23:11] Tunix: in hawaii right now [23:11] tylerburtonca: dont know that (my laptop is ~3years old) [23:12] at the mercy of the router here at the condo :) === xubuntu is now known as Guest55590 [23:12] adam_____, type less, save bandwith [23:12] ziew, based on the age you very likely have a 64-bit processor. Which OS do you currently have installed? [23:12] I just downloaded the latest ubuntu. Haven't used Ubuntu for a while, and can not for the life of me work out how to get a terminal open [23:12] har har [23:12] anyone know? [23:12] zube, Ctrl+Alt+T [23:12] tylerburtonca: kubuntu 14.04 32bit [23:12] hi everyone [23:12] hi all [23:13] thanks tylerburtonca [23:13] tylerburtonca: but it runs quite slow so i startet to think why... [23:13] zube: Ctrl-T [23:13] minimec: This only lists display drivers, nothing for ethernet. [23:13] oops cttl-alt-t is, thanks tylerburtonca [23:14] Hey if anybody is nice enough to help me with an issue can you please help me? im trying to boot Ubuntu from GRUB 2.0 but i honestly dont know what to do xD [23:14] ziew, apparently if you run "grep flags /proc/cpuinfo" without quotes and it says "lm" (long mode) that is an indicator of 64bit CPU [23:15] tylerburtonca: it says "lm" amongst others, "tm" is also there [23:15] "do-release-upgrade" or "do-release-upgrade -d"? [23:15] I just now did the hotcorner option that I get with unity tweak tool and it stuck in the spreadsheet window. I'm all thinking what the hell. Hit the windows button on my laptop got out of it. pain in the ass [23:16] ziew, you should be at least able to install 64bit, however it may not be the best choice. How much RAM does your system have? [23:16] tylerburtonca: 4GB od RAM [23:16] johnja: So nothing available for your Card... The broadcom site might help for a driver. I guess I cannot help you further. http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/netlink_k57.php [23:17] tylerburtonca: will 64 kubuntu 14.04. work faster than 32bit? [23:17] so I did a strait distro upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 with plans to do a clean install later. For the most part it runs fine but since upgrade its frozen on me like 5 times today. is this 14.04 itself or becuase I did the distro upgrade? [23:17] johnja: There is indeed a tg3 driver for linux... [23:18] Due to force of habit I have upgraded all my boxes via "apt-get dist-upgrade". Don't know what "do-release-upgrade" does better... [23:19] did it without the developer option [23:19] Hey all....having trouble installing conky-manager. Terminal says it cant be found? I tried the conky irc, but is dead... [23:19] ziew, its hard to say. Depending on the CPU chip 64bit *can* be faster but its not a sure thing. Also something to keep in mind is that running 64bit programs will use slightly more memory and may require more trips to RAM as a result (its very technical but I'm trying to make it as simple as possible). Long-story short YMMV [23:19] how do I install mono on 14.04? [23:19] It'll do it's thing over the next 2 days I guess [23:20] Leo_Verto: best to build it [23:20] mkay [23:20] thanks, I'll try that then [23:20] Tunix: do-release-upgrade upgrades Ubuntu to the next version. [23:20] assuming I'm able to resolve this dual-boot situation [23:20] Leo_Verto: mono is always updating stuff, so better to be able to work off the source for it [23:21] SonikkuAmerica: so does apt-get dist-upgrade [23:21] Leo_Verto: why do you need dual boot? I'm running Windows in virtualbox with no issues [23:21] !dist-upgrade | Tunix, I beg to differ [23:21] Tunix, I beg to differ: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [23:21] adam_____, I installed Windows first and use both OSes actively [23:21] Leo_Verto, you may also be able to just install mono-runtime and have it pull in the rest for you. Not sure which version ships with 14.04 though [23:21] Leo_Verto: I use both as well [23:22] that bot is wrong...14.04 it is ;) [23:22] ubuntu is much better as base os [23:22] had it the other way around before [23:22] Anyone able to get auto-login to work. I've noticed that if I create a second account, that new account has the option to auto-login but not my primary (first created during install) account. I've also tried manually editing lightdm.conf but no luck. Anything else I can try? [23:22] folder shares work well, etc [23:22] pass-through USB, etc [23:23] would you recommend virtualbox over vmware? [23:23] i think i have to inspect do-release-upgrade's source to detect any REAL differences [23:23] yes [23:23] Leo_Verto: I tend to vmware [23:23] tylerburtonca: i think i'll try to install 64bit ubuntu and figure out which one runs better [23:23] I support free stuff and opensource if possible [23:23] was meaning to switch to the linux one anyway [23:24] for the last 2 years this set up has been golden [23:24] * Tunix looked at the unity-greeter source and cringed [23:24] btw. how to enable java in chromium? (i've installed java-7 already and it works with firefox, but not with chromium) [23:24] the amount of reboots that windows forces, it's better for it to be in the vm [23:25] it's really good to have both running [23:25] I usually move over to ubuntu side to do git commands [23:25] way quicker [23:25] so best of both worlds if running side by side. Long deserted the dual boot thing [23:26] I used to have a dual-boot installation before, kinda broke my graphic drivers back then and used only win with linux in vms for a while [23:26] although I'm actively moving to where I'm not using Windows at all [23:26] but 14.04 has made some pretty cool changes which made me go back to ubuntu again [23:27] Ubuntu One gone, automatic TRIM support and all those handy unity changes [23:28] I'm wondering if full disk encryption/LVM is best practice? I'm just trying to figure out what is most common. I'm installing on a laptop. Need to be able to share files with others. [23:28] TRIM is just a cron job now :) [23:28] Leo_Verto: think about the fact that you don't need to defrag [23:29] I also like xubuntu [23:29] I got my SSD only recently [23:29] Ubuntu One was way too slow anyway [23:29] but this setup is pretty nice, except for that orphaned mint installation I found today [23:29] jamesmcveity: There was an article on www.phoronix.com recently. Full encryption is much better than only encryption of the /home partition. Much better performance. [23:29] ziew, good luck! [23:29] used xubuntu on one of my other machines.. very nice although didn't have some of the window stapping shortcuts I wanted [23:30] jamesmcveity, what do you by "share files with others"? [23:30] Leo_Verto: I highly recommend trying an all ubuntu install with Windows quaranteened to a VM [23:30] adam_____: you can configure that pretty well [23:30] I decided to assume my 2 month old ASRock POS motherboard is dead and plugged in an old PCIe ethernet card. This seems to work just fine. What package do I need to install to get gnome back? [23:30] you can snapshot, turn off network [23:30] adam_____, will probably do that the next time Windows requires a reinstallation [23:31] really good for running iffy software [23:31] windows is full of viruses [23:31] speed boost is great too [23:31] linux flies on modern hardware [23:31] tylerburtonca: thank you [23:31] tylerburtonca: I just what to make sure that if I create a file on an encrypted drive that the data will be editable on another user's system. [23:32] Leo_Verto: I've never looked back.. being free of windows as the ultimate OS is amazing [23:32] Hi people, I was wondering should I stick with 12.04 for the while until more how to's come out as I'm finding it a struggle to get things working like vnc and shared folders with windows [23:32] no advice on conky manager not installing? [23:32] minimec: Thanks. I'm tracking the article down. [23:32] guys i want to record my desktop as video, what software do u recommend for ubuntu? [23:32] windows 8.x runs pretty smooth, too, but that metro stuff is awkward [23:33] !info recordmydesktop [23:33] recordmydesktop (source: recordmydesktop): Captures audio-video data of a Linux desktop session. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.8.1+svn602-1ubuntu3 (trusty), package size 54 kB, installed size 148 kB [23:33] eurryale: simple screen recorder, vokoscreen, record my desktop [23:33] ok thank ubottu, will try. [23:33] jamesmcveity, once you've logged in and 'unlocked' the encryption its smart enough to know that any file you copy away from your PC (to a USB stick or whatever) should be copied without the encryption so you shouldn't have any trouble there [23:33] Tunix: no deal.. giving up an OpenSource platform for no gains (in my view) [23:34] oh is this a command line program? [23:35] tylerburtonca: Thanks. I've always overlooked the option and I've been having troubling finding novice level info on why and how it works. [23:35] jamesmcveity: I am just digging it again. Just have a look on page 4 of the article for example ... ;) http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_1404_encryption&num=4 [23:36] jamesmcveity, the easiest way, if perhaps not the most correct way, to think about it is that anything you configure to be encrypted when you configure the encryption will stay encrypted, but anything else (i.e. an external drive, an e-mail attachment, etc.) won't be [23:36] brand new trusty! [23:36] hi everyonee!! [23:37] hi [23:37] helo l! [23:37] adam_____: i develop for windows during work time, for linux during free time [23:37] hello [23:37] Tunix: yep.. same [23:37] minimec: Great! thanks. [23:37] but changing that asap [23:37] minimec, yeah that was a good article unfortunately for my home server I ended up just doing home directory encryption because I wanted it to autologin... which kind of defeats the purpose of encryption in the first place but whatever haha [23:37] hence my vm for windows [23:37] total PITA for how heavy the dev env is [23:38] tylerburtonca: It definitely does ;) [23:38] #golang is a great gateway away from .net to linux [23:38] minimec, hey at least I get the swap encryption which I think gets a new key every boot [23:38] tylerburtonca, If you set a password for the disk encryption, is it also necessary to have the user login option as well? [23:39] with intellij CE and golang plugin, it's the same experience as in VS [23:39] but all on Linux [23:39] jamesmcveity, entirely up to you. At that point you have some options based on how you prefer things to be :) [23:40] I just installed Ubuntu on a Thinkpad T540p. Facing many issues: Touchpad barely works (kind of shaky, can't right click or middle click)... Doesn't stay connected to wifi or can't connect to it. The boot selection menu doesn't let me boot into windows (I need to change BIOS options to switch back and forth)... [23:40] i just got kicked out of ubuntu-release-party and ubuntu+1 ... its like.. once a new ubuntu comes out.. theres all this love.. then no love :p [23:40] tylerburtonca, thanks. Much appreciated. [23:40] jamesmcveity, np [23:40] snadge: you will get used to it :) [23:40] minimec, thanks again. [23:41] hello can i have back wine1.4 ? [23:41] tylerburtonca: I do not encrypt until now, but after having read the article... I might... [23:41] jamesmcveity: No problem. [23:41] I failed to upgrade ubuntu because PPA packages overrode ubuntu packages. [23:41] damn [23:41] glumetu: install wine1.4 package [23:41] so the period of time between a stable release.. and the next release announce.. there's all these ubuntu addicts.. who are cast out onto the street.. homeless, with nowhere to go [23:41] :P [23:42] snadge: we got #ubuntu-offtopic for that :) [23:42] ppas and upgrades...fun...all night... [23:42] Should I manually install ubuntu 14.10 and reinstall packages? [23:42] Hola Gente soy nuevo alguno habla español. soy de Argentina [23:42] !ar | edgardo [23:42] edgardo: La comunidad local de Argentina se puede encontrar en #ubuntu-ar y en su canal de offtopic: #ubuntu-ar-cafe [23:42] crocket: just dealt with that today [23:42] Does anyone have experience with bad packet loss on a ralink 5390? I'm running 14.04. [23:42] need a hand? [23:42] adam_____, How did you do it? [23:43] you can see the log [23:43] crocket: use ppapurge to get rid of that ppas and packages. that will reinstall the oroginal ubuntu pakcages [23:43] good evening people so who is using 14.04 lts [23:43] !ppapurge | crocket [23:43] crocket: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [23:43] tux_: a lot of users are. but better ask a real support question :) === Thor|Away is now known as Thorium220 [23:44] minimec, the performance impact is so little I don't see why not. Also on SSDs where the drive controller does automatic wear leveling if you ever don't use encryption you can't be 100% sure that you'll ever be able to override that old data. [23:45] is the code name of 14.10 already out? [23:45] Tunix: not that i am aware of [23:46] tylerburtonca: As I told you... I might ;) You're absolutely right... I have a Intel 240GB msata SSD in my Lenovo x230... [23:46] * Tunix favors Unuoccupied Unicorn [23:46] Would anyone know what causes Ubuntu 14.04 to crash after waking? [23:46] MHodge: best is to see the logs and not to guess :) [23:47] k1l when i do apt-get install wine1.4 it installs 1.6 [23:47] crocket: i did it without ppa purge [23:47] glumetu: Umm... that's a good thing. [23:47] it should be but it doesn;t work for me [23:47] !info wine [23:47] wine (source: wine1.6): Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (meta-package). In component universe, is extra. Version 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu4 (trusty), package size 0 kB, installed size 21 kB (Only available for i386; amd64) [23:47] I'll do that. :) [23:47] glumetu: And why not? [23:48] adam_____, How? [23:48] glumetu: well yes, just saw it redirects to wine 1.6 in trustsy [23:48] MHodge: You might be able to check that yourself. Try to disable bluetooth & wifi for a try and then suspend. The two are often the source of problems. Also some USB devices like DVB cards might be the cause... [23:48] crocket: do the install with "sudo do-release-update" [23:48] let's say they did sommeting with connection and 1.6 doesn't let my app connect to internet [23:48] it will error out after a bit [23:49] press 'x' to exit [23:49] how does 1 host a website with ubuntu 14.04 [23:49] i would like to stick with the old realy stable wine1.4 [23:49] I disable wifi and unfortunately I lost the drivers for my bluetooth. :( [23:49] anyone know of a guide/how to for shared folders on windows that will work in 14.04? [23:49] then paste the output of "grep Broken /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log" using pastebin [23:50] We'll take a look and see if you have any fishy stuff installed [23:50] we'll "sudo apt-get remove" them [23:50] adam_____, I have overriden graphics driver and some system packages. [23:50] adam_____, I think ppa-purge would be faster. [23:50] ok [23:51] then do that.. for me it was cinnamon [23:51] if you don't purge and just remove, when you reinstall, the settings should still be there [23:52] anyway.. it seemed ppa-purge wasn't enough for me [23:52] well, cinnamon is put out of the debian and ubuntu repos. === KD9AUS is now known as chiburbs_KD9AUS === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [23:53] k1l_: Cinnamon is gone? For good? === chiburbs_KD9AUS is now known as KD9AUS [23:53] there was a few others I removed [23:53] Could someone help me? I follow this guide: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx , but my stick doesn't appear in the list of bootable devices when I boot my Mac. It will work on a regular PC though. And I am using the 14.04+Mac version of the iso. [23:53] did a chunk of them by gettingrid of kde [23:54] SonikkuAmerica: not for good it was moved to debian unstable, might see it in 14.10 [23:54] SonikkuAmerica: yep. mate is now in the repos, iirc [23:54] need to reinstall a few things now [23:54] * minimec just wants to share his happiness with you. Playing and chatting on a Toshiba ac100 KitKat/14.04 dual boot. Thats an ARM/Tegra2 device with 512MB RAM! e17 is running really well. Cool little baby. OK... It's offtopic ;) [23:54] hi guys! [23:54] can i get google desktop version in ubuntu [23:55] installed the amd 13.4 driver in ubuntu [23:55] minimec: grats [23:55] i got an error log. but havent read that because it needed to reboot, and so i did, but now can't login to gui. [23:55] congratulation ubuntu team .. verry fast boot time [23:55] Can anyone help me with my Mac installation problem? [23:55] * adam_____ happy about never buying into the Apple hype [23:55] e17 is strange though [23:56] Anyone able to get auto-login to work? I've noticed that if I create a second account, that new account has the option to auto-login but not my primary (first created during install) account. I've also tried manually editing lightdm.conf but no luck. Anything else I can try? [23:56] Tunix: The 'linux community' is just great. We use uboot instead of android fastboot now and I can use 3.14 or even 3.15 kernels on ubuntu. Android is stillon 3.1... [23:56] @Holstein. Can u help me remove the proprietary driver for amd? [23:57] tylerburtonca, was the Auto Login enabled when you installed the OS? [23:57] euryale: sudo apt-get purge fglrx [23:57] euryale you can do that from software center [23:58] im currently at tty, i have no access to desktop since intalling the amd driver.
