| timClicks | I'm not sure where I should report this ... but upgrading to 14.04 if you have an NVIDIA graphics card can lead to being unable to boot. I was affected by this bug (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2218019) which prevents LightDM from starting, although I have an NVIDIA 4200M | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| timClicks | I've needed to disable hybrid-power in the LightDM config | 00:02 |
| nith1210 | timClicks: My guess would be https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm | 00:08 |
| bluezone | My folder icons in nautilus look like empty file icons instead of folder icons (14.04) | 00:19 |
| organicanarchy | Im having trouble installing my gfx card drivers | 00:22 |
| organicanarchy | I get the error message Errors were encountered while processing: | 00:22 |
| organicanarchy | nvidia-331 | 00:22 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | bluezone: did you upgrade Ubuntu to 14.04? | 00:23 |
| organicanarchy | No I did not yet | 00:23 |
| bluezone | no it was a clean install | 00:23 |
| bluezone | to ubuntu 14.04, and the folders were working initially | 00:23 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | bluezone: very strange | 00:24 |
| bluezone | yep :P | 00:24 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | bluezone: Is this problem in every folder' | 00:24 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | ? | 00:24 |
| === james is now known as Guest66114 | ||
| bluezone | yes all folders look like empty files | 00:25 |

| Joshua^Dunamis | bluezone: How work with the Guest account? | 00:25 |
| bluezone | Joshua^Dunamis, okay the problem was i was using the Icons theme: Tango instead of Ubuntu-mono-dark | 00:27 |
| Joshua^Dunamis | bluezone: okkk | 00:27 |
| bluezone | Seems to be a problem with the folder icon in the tango Theme | 00:27 |

| sasha| | yop just wondering, is it possible for tr to remove a specific phrase? | 00:28 |
| sasha| | like for example, the thing that I want to clean is like "tv":"http://.... and I only want the http://... part | 00:28 |
| sasha| | ok nvm found that, now I'm wondering, is it possible to wget the output of grep? | 00:35 |
| reisio | wget $(grep foo) | 00:36 |
| sasha| | no but I mean after piping | 00:36 |
| uskerine | hi | 00:37 |
| reisio | sure, or you could just use wget $(grep foo) | 00:37 |
| === marvin is now known as Guest31084 | ||
| reisio | or foo=$(grep foo); wget $foo | 00:37 |
| reisio | uskerine: ohio | 00:37 |
| uskerine | this is a bit offtopic, but there might be someone to share, does anyone use uvnc? is it still safe to use it? | 00:37 |
| reisio | sasha|: I guess you want | wget -i - though | 00:38 |
| reisio | uskerine: I use tigervnc | 00:38 |
| sasha| | oh oups the first one worked too... my apologies | 00:39 |
| === LarrySteeze|Away is now known as LarrySteeze | ||
| reisio | VNC has never really been safe without tunneling through ssh, also | 00:39 |
| uskerine | does it support one click? | 00:39 |
| reisio | sasha|: pipes are cool, you don't have to go backwards :) | 00:39 |
| reisio | uskerine: one click? | 00:39 |
| uskerine | single click | 00:39 |
| reisio | uskerine: single click what? | 00:39 |
| uskerine | it is a feature of uvnc for remote support | 00:39 |
| reisio | ...a feature that entails...what? | 00:40 |
| uskerine | you give away an exe which connects to the server | 00:40 |
| reisio | ah | 00:40 |
| uskerine | and the remote user does not have to open any port or do anything | 00:40 |
| sasha| | just wondering reisio, if I do a bash script, will I still need pipes or will every new line be the same as pipe? | 00:40 |
| sasha| | like, not just command but a .sh script | 00:40 |
| reisio | uskerine: I'm sure it does, a vnc viewer is no special thing | 00:40 |
| === scott is now known as Guest28950 | ||
| reisio | sasha|: newlines aren't pipes :) | 00:40 |
| uskerine | sasha| you have to pipe lines, otherwise outputs and inputs are not linked | 00:40 |
| organicanarchy | alright, now I installed the Nvidia driver, and im in a command line only system using irssi | 00:41 |
| reisio | sasha|: you can use \ to escape to a new line to keep it readable if you want | 00:41 |
| uskerine | BUT the first command receives .sh input | 00:41 |
| sasha| | reisio: k thanks | 00:41 |
| reisio | so | 00:41 |
| reisio | grep foo \ | 00:41 |
| reisio | | wget -i - | 00:41 |
| reisio | etc. | 00:41 |
| organicanarchy | anyone know how I get get back to booting in X? | 00:41 |
| reisio | or you can use variables and it'll be even more readable | 00:41 |
| reisio | foo=$(grep foo) | 00:41 |
| reisio | wget $foo | 00:41 |
| reisio | organicanarchy: back? | 00:42 |
| organicanarchy | reisio: I'm in a command line only system after trying to install an Nvidia driver | 00:42 |
| reisio | organicanarchy: ah | 00:42 |
| Jordan_U | reisio: wget "$foo" # Don't foget to quote expansions! | 00:42 |
| reisio | organicanarchy: what happens when you try to run X? | 00:42 |
| sasha| | that sounds great reisio, I'll check it out. I'm currently writing a script to download videos from my local news site that dosen't get picked up by any browser extensions or youtube-dl, so it's quite exciting | 00:42 |
| === ethan is now known as Guest80453 | ||

| moritzs | is there a way to apply ubuntu 14.04's HiDPI-screen capabilities to XMonad? | 00:43 |
| organicanarchy | reisio: You mean when I type startx? | 00:43 |
| reisio | organicanarchy: mmm, sure | 00:43 |
| organicanarchy | just get errors then back to the CLI | 00:43 |
| reisio | sasha|: :) | 00:43 |
| reisio | sasha|: you have it all figured out and just on the script finalizing part now? | 00:43 |
| organicanarchy | during the repo installation and (any other) install, I get an error saying error occured with Nvidia 331 | 00:44 |

| === joshtau_ is now known as joshtau | ||
| sasha| | reisio: basically I've found the 'playlist' file location, they use the same ID in the URL as the video ID | 00:44 |
| reisio | sasha|: so you'll just fetch the real URI from the playlist value and download it? | 00:44 |
| sasha| | ?so say the video URL is http://mainsite.com/014958190354-video.html, which is what I want to paste as my input, and the video playlist file is at http://cdn.mainsite.com/014958190354.html?something | 00:45 |
| organicanarchy | reisio: any clues on whats up? | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | moritzs: Only to applications, and not to anything displayed by Xmonad itself. Which, being what it is, probably shouldn't be a problem for Xmonad :) | 00:45 |
| sasha| | I've got the part past going to the second URL and actually wgetting the video figured out | 00:45 |

| codepython777 | when does ubuntu keep back packages? | 01:51 |
| reisio | thurstylark2: if you can find where another "command" is, you should largely be able to substitute in another | 01:51 |
| reisio | codepython777: keep back? | 01:51 |
| codepython777 | reisio: apt-get update/upgrade: The following packages have been kept back: | 01:52 |
| zykotick9 | codepython777: try "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 01:52 |
| thurstylark2 | probably means "under what circumstances does apt-get hold a package back" | 01:52 |
| codepython777 | zykotick9: does that always happen with kernel updates? | 01:52 |
| zykotick9 | codepython777: "apt-get upgrade" can't install new versions of stuff, that requires dist-upgrade | 01:53 |
| thurstylark2 | reisio I found my mistake. I was trying to run a bash command using the exec prefix, when I needed to use a script | 01:53 |

| zykotick9 | munzmania: basically, if you run "aptitude -o DPkg::Options::='--force-confmiss' reinstall $packagename" replacing $packagename with apache2, it should reinstall the missing config files you manually deleted | 02:04 |

| Seven_Six_Two | yeah. First kernel panic since I think manual ati driver installs of yore | 02:07 |

| Beldar | Seven_Six_Two, 13.04 is end of life and not supported. | 02:08 |

| zykotick9 | jasabella: that's why you have eth0 and eth1 then... ? | 02:09 |
| Seven_Six_Two | jasabella, even better. That's why. I don't remember what it's called, but they are automatically created. | 02:10 |
| jasabella | it idnt automatically create it when i commented out the lines for eth0 | 02:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | jasabella, you can disable it with sudo ifconfig eth1 down | 02:10 |
| jasabella | pug and play? | 02:10 |
| jasabella | plug and play | 02:10 |
| jasabella | hmmm | 02:10 |

| jasabella | (im having trouble setting it up and want to disable things and re-enable piece by piece) | 02:11 |
| jasabella | ok | 02:11 |
| Seven_Six_Two | jasabella, you can do with it as you wish. Your internet connection will only go through one of them by default, if that's what you're concerned about. | 02:11 |

| mdih | by the way Beldar, even if i restarted the machine, the application still do exist | 02:30 |
| zykotick9 | i've forgot how to check for versions of programs with ubottu... anyone who knows, can you check for libcelt-dev? | 02:30 |
| ghostx562 | SuperNoeMan, so you need the source code? | 02:30 |
| ghostx562 | !libcelt-dev | 02:31 |
| nith1210 | Jordan_U: Makes sense, I've suggested it to sasha|. I've never frequented #bash - yet | 02:31 |
| ghostx562 | zykotick9, ubottu doesn't recoginze it | 02:31 |
| ghostx562 | recognize* | 02:31 |
| SuperNoeMan | ghostx562: yes | 02:31 |
| zykotick9 | ghostx562: that's not the right syntax ;) | 02:31 |
| Beldar | mdih, Not really an area common for this operating system or linux to be honest, my guess is cleaning the browser, and temps etc will work. | 02:31 |
| ghostx562 | SuperNoeMan: let me see | 02:31 |
| ghostx562 | zykotick9: you sure? | 02:32 |
| veryhappy | hey guys, what is going on, i installed the new ubuntu version 14.04 on my netbook and i seem not to be able to start gnome, do i first have to activate Xorg and my graphics drivers for that? | 02:32 |
| mdih | okay Beldar, ill try..thanks for the info | 02:32 |
| zykotick9 | ghostx562: yes. | 02:32 |
| ghostx562 | zykotick9: darn it, gotta read up on xchat commands again :( | 02:32 |
| Beldar | mdih, If you are running a derivative in root, that is a whole different matter. | 02:33 |
| ghostx562 | SuperNoeMan: looks like the source code is available here :http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libcelt-dev | 02:33 |
| zykotick9 | ghostx562: !foo _is_ how to call regular factoids, but there is a check versions command... | 02:33 |
| ghostx562 | zykotick9: i've gotta brush up, haven't been on this in a while | 02:34 |
| ghostx562 | zykotick9: google seems to have good answers :) just looked it up, but its too much to paste and im tired. | 02:36 |
| zykotick9 | ghostx562 s/google/duckduckgo|startpage/ for results without tracking ;) | 02:37 |
| SuperNoeMan | ghostx562: right | 02:37 |
| SuperNoeMan | I just made a lot of progress now that I understand the install file better | 02:37 |
| SuperNoeMan | but now I'm running configure on the daemon subdirectory | 02:37 |
| SuperNoeMan | and I get this error: | 02:37 |
| SuperNoeMan | configure: error: Missing sndfile development files | 02:37 |
| ghostx562 | SuperNoeMan: what would the sndfile dev files be? | 02:38 |
| SuperNoeMan | idk? | 02:38 |
| veryhappy | zykotick9: do you have an answer perhaps? | 02:38 |
| veryhappy | zykotick9: i installed the new ubuntu version 14.04 on my netbook and i seem not to be able to start gnome, do i first have to activate Xorg and my graphics drivers for that? | 02:38 |
| ghostx562 | zykotick9: is that run from Terminal? | 02:38 |
| ghostx562 | Veryhappy: does your netbook have good enough grafx card to run gnome? | 02:39 |
| ghostx562 | you might need a watered down version | 02:39 |
| wickedheadache | dam why does a cdrw not hold data in ubuntu....i see that its written but when i reboot its blank again | 02:39 |
| veryhappy | ghostx562: it ran before on ubuntu 12.04, i should know it | 02:39 |
| zykotick9 | veryhappy: i'm not sure... do dyou know what graphics card(s) are there? if you have a terminal "lspci -v | grep -i vga" do you see two listed? | 02:39 |
| zykotick9 | ghostx562: sorry, that was a joke - don't use google... | 02:40 |
| wickedheadache | its more likely drivers need installing | 02:40 |
| organicanarchy | I seem to be having this problem | 02:40 |
| ghostx562 | zykotick9: lol nice, i was going to try it | 02:40 |
| organicanarchy | anytime I install my Nvidia driver X fails and I boot to black screen | 02:40 |
| wickedheadache | new drivers may also nee to be updated when you update | 02:40 |
| ghostx562 | veryhappy: might need drivers installed? google your card and install linux drivers | 02:41 |

| wickedheadache | i ran active iso to burn a boot cd to recover win7 and its stuck at 99% verify failed | 02:43 |
| wickedheadache | is there a help room for active software? | 02:43 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: Possibly try again with another disk. These things just error sometimes. | 02:43 |
| wickedheadache | =/ | 02:43 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: also make sure your ISO is good, errors occur duing downloading as well. | 02:43 |
| wickedheadache | fracking hell | 02:44 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: you should be able to check your ISO file against an MD5 or SHA hash. | 02:44 |
| peanuts | sounds like a faulty medium to me. | 02:44 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: It happens; I just had a PC-BSD install fail because it turns out the file I downloaded was slightly off. | 02:44 |
| veryhappy | ok i'm gonna try it | 02:44 |
| wickedheadache | hmm if iso was bad it would mess up boot | 02:44 |
| wickedheadache | wow | 02:44 |
| veryhappy | can i actually choose Xorg over normal X? | 02:45 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: It might work, it might now, but if you're verifying the burned data then it will probably get caught during that process. | 02:45 |
| wickedheadache | so it burned fine but did not boot? | 02:45 |
| wickedheadache | ah | 02:45 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: The purpose of 'verify after burn' is to overcome the many failings of physical media. | 02:45 |
| wickedheadache | i'll erase and do without verify | 02:45 |
| Beldar | wickedheadache, Can you get to a question, not a play by play? | 02:45 |
| bluezone | ideally whenever you burn an iso you should verify it with the program and also check the hash for the file after downloading it | 02:46 |
| === win is now known as Guest2562 | ||
| ancap | wickedheadache: Don't skip the verification. bluezone has it right. | 02:46 |
| bluezone | also try burning at lower speeds | 02:46 |
| wickedheadache | Beldar: others have the context and original question^^^ | 02:46 |
| peanuts | what's the worst that could happen by ignoring the verify stage? D: | 02:46 |
| veryhappy | zykotick9: can i choose Xorg instead of normal X? | 02:46 |
| Beldar | wickedheadache, Your posting way more than needed, have some respect here. | 02:46 |
| wickedheadache | so failed verification indicates a bad disk more so | 02:47 |
| wickedheadache | Beldar: hush you | 02:47 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: Likely a bad disk. Could be a problem in the source file that's being revealed by the burned disk. | 02:47 |
| wickedheadache | ty | 02:48 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: If you have persistent problems burning to CD, a USB boot may be an option as well for the tool you are using. | 02:48 |
| wickedheadache | yea i'm considering this | 02:49 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: remind me what you're trying to burn? Microsoft has a utility that makes boot USBs from ISO files. | 02:49 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: You can make a Windows install/recovery CD with taht. | 02:49 |
| wickedheadache | right but i'm burning from ubuntu utilities for recovery | 02:50 |
| ancap | wickedheadache: my misunderstanding | 02:50 |
| wickedheadache | then i need to migrate files | 02:50 |

| holstein | eric45644: make sure you can ping the machines.. and try pulling down firewalls locally to connect | 03:13 |
| ancap | eric45644: Presumably you're browing to a network share on a nother computer. | 03:13 |
| wickedheadache | the linux pc must run a windows vvm | 03:13 |
| eric45644 | I'm just trying to see shared folders on the workgroup. | 03:13 |

| wickedheadache | a router should be visible | 03:14 |
| holstein | wickedheadache: its not true that windows must be running in a vm | 03:14 |
| eric45644 | what is gigolo? what is vvm? | 03:14 |
| ancap | eric45644: You'll need the user/pass combination to the computer that has the shared folder. Domain can probably just be "WORKGROUP" for a Windows system. | 03:14 |

| nbros652 | I'm looking to set up a lab running Ubuntu. Is there a way that I can deny access to a list of specific programs (like nm-applet) that I don't want users (or users in a given group) to have access to? | 03:30 |
| ancap | nbros652: Disable execute permissions for a certain user group? | 03:31 |
| nbros652 | ancap: yes | 03:31 |
| nbros652 | or rather, for everyone not in a particular group | 03:31 |
| nbros652 | I guess everyone in a given group would work just as well. | 03:32 |
| ancap | nbros652: No, that's exactly what you need to do, I think. File permissions in Unix/Linux have User:Group:Other permissions, so you could create an admin group, set execute for root:Admin, with no permission for 'others'. | 03:32 |
| ancap | nbros652: something like "chmod 770 root:Admins $filename" | 03:33 |
| nbros652 | ancap: I was afraid that might be my only option. | 03:33 |
| ancap | nbros652: Not an expert here, though. | 03:33 |
| ancap | nbros652: I think it's a great option. I love Unix permissions. | 03:34 |
| nbros652 | ancap: I thought maybe there might be a policy where I could simply list programs by path and then specify a list of users or groups for whom that policy woudl apply. | 03:34 |
| holstein | nbros652: yup.. with permissions.. thats a policy | 03:35 |
| thurstylark2 | I'm having some trouble with my upstart script. can anyone help me out? | 03:35 |
| nbros652 | holstein: true | 03:35 |
| ancap | nbros652: I'm sure there's a tool to manage it. I'm only used to my home server, which is entirely terminal. | 03:35 |
| kenetik | thurstylark2: Explain? | 03:36 |
| nbros652 | ancap: what happens if you have, say 5 groups and you want 5 different policies? | 03:36 |
| ancap | nbros652: There are ACLs for more advanced policies. You can also create lots of Groups, with sub-groups, so things can get pretty heirarchical fast with only Unix permissions. | 03:36 |
| ancap | nbros652: I've only done ACLs through FreeBSD on Windows clients, though. | 03:37 |
| nbros652 | ah, ACLs ... that's what I wasn't googling. That should get me where I want to be. | 03:37 |
| ancap | nbros652: ACLs/Unix permissions coexist, and I'm not entirely sure what happens when they disagree. | 03:38 |
| nbros652 | ancap: I'll give it a go and see. Looks like the acl package is installed by default on my system. | 03:38 |
| nbros652 | ancap: thanks | 03:38 |

| rchavik | how to show the bottom 'status bar' in gnome-shell? (14.04 desktop) | 03:51 |
| rchavik | i accidentally get it to show but unable to reproduce | 03:51 |
| Beldar | rchavik, cursor in the bottom right corner is the trigger | 03:52 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest73484 | ||
| rchavik | Beldar, it's touch and go | 03:54 |
| rchavik | sometimes it shows... | 03:54 |
| rchavik | i had to minimize all windows too | 03:54 |
| rchavik | it's also a bit difficult because the pointer sometimes go the second monitor | 03:55 |
| Beldar | rchavik, I use the shell, but don't like that panel, so I have a cairo-dock there. | 03:55 |
| rchavik | ohhh.. ok.. got it working | 03:57 |
| rchavik | need to 'force' down the screen | 03:57 |
| rchavik | weird usability | 03:57 |
| yeyeman | how do I do "match all of the same words as the highlighted one" in the new version of code::blocks? | 03:58 |

| nbros652 | ancap: any idea how I would add a guest user to a group? | 04:04 |
| nbros652 | holstein: ^ any ideas? | 04:06 |
| xWolfz | What's a group? | 04:07 |
| Diamondcite | nbros652: That would depend on which user the guest runs as | 04:07 |
| ancap | nbros652: I'm not the one to ask on that, sorry. | 04:07 |
| nbros652 | xWolfz: pertaining to permissions | 04:07 |
| xWolfz | ahh, not too sure. | 04:08 |
| Diamondcite | nbros652: But you could always add the name to /etc/groups under the correct group? | 04:08 |
| nbros652 | Diamondcite: logging in as guest from the login screen. | 04:08 |
| ancap | nbros652: I'm a nix beginner, mostly, and just like looking at the pretty colors on my termina. | 04:08 |
| xWolfz | I just installed Linux today. | 04:08 |
| holstein | nbros652: i gave up on trying to use the guest account as you are suggesting | 04:08 |
| Diamondcite | nbros652: If guest can login, login, open up a terminal, do a 'whoami' to find the username | 04:08 |
| Diamondcite | If it has one at all | 04:09 |
| holstein | nbros652: i ended up just read-only most everything.. and having an autologin user | 04:09 |
| nbros652 | Diamondcite: that would require that a script with root priviledges run after the user is created which happens on the fly after choosing to log in. | 04:09 |
| xWolfz | whoami | 04:09 |
| Diamondcite | nbros652: I never had a guest user before, hence I don't know how it works | 04:09 |
| xWolfz | !whoami | 04:09 |
| ubottu | use @whoami | 04:09 |
| xWolfz | @whoami | 04:09 |
| unopaste | xWolfz: I don't recognize you. | 04:09 |
| kenetik | @areyousureyouwannaknow? | 04:10 |
| Diamondcite | The 'whoami' thing is a Linux terminal command | 04:10 |
| Diamondcite | Not an IRC channel command | 04:10 |
| xWolfz | Ahh. | 04:10 |
| ancap | > "saymyname" you're damn right | 04:10 |
| kenetik | lol | 04:10 |
| nbros652 | Diamondcite: yeah, but I want to automate it for purposes of permissions. | 04:10 |
| Diamondcite | nbros652: Why not just give 'others' permission? | 04:11 |
| Diamondcite | Since if you are giving guest access, then anyone should be able to access? | 04:11 |
| nbros652 | I'm going to have more than 2 types of accounts on the computer. | 04:11 |
| Diamondcite | And you control guest types.. how? | 04:11 |
| xWolfz | How does the Linux filesystem work? It's like Windows where windows segregates drives, such as C:/ or D:/ | 04:12 |
| holstein | xWolfz: no | 04:12 |
| nbros652 | Diamondcite: I'm saying "other" might not be enough. I'll likely need to use ACL with more groups. | 04:12 |
| Diamondcite | xWolfz: Mount points are like the C:\ D:\ Drives | 04:12 |
| xWolfz | Mount points? | 04:12 |
| Diamondcite | nbros652: Why not make specific users then? | 04:12 |
| holstein | you can mount something anywhere though | 04:12 |
| holstein | !mount | 04:12 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 04:12 |
| xWolfz | Ahh | 04:13 |
| xWolfz | So by default, your HDD is mounted to /> | 04:13 |
| xWolfz | ?* | 04:13 |
| holstein | you can mount a drive to a location in the filesystem.. you can mount a network attached share or drive and make it seem as though its part of the filesystem | 04:13 |
| xWolfz | That's cool | 04:13 |
| xWolfz | Way cooler then windows | 04:13 |
| nbros652 | Diamondcite: because I want the account to reset on each login (lab setup) | 04:14 |
| xWolfz | !mount | 04:14 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 04:14 |
| xWolfz | Needed the URL sorry | 04:14 |
| rchavik | Beldar, they seem to remove the cable connectivity indicator as well? | 04:14 |
| nbros652 | Diamondcite: guest account erases changes and logs in with my setup each time. | 04:14 |
| holstein | xWolfz: thats what the bot is for :) ..you can always query the bot, as well | 04:14 |
| xWolfz | hahahah | 04:15 |
| nbros652 | Diamondcite: ah well, gotta run. It's lunch time, and I'm being called away. | 04:15 |
| xWolfz | This is gonna be a tough journey | 04:15 |
| Diamondcite | It's bed time, I am going to sleep | 04:15 |
| holstein | xWolfz: migrating from windows? you mean? | 04:15 |
| xWolfz | yup | 04:15 |

| jellow | CiSense, Unless you have external modules compiled into kernel then I see no reason not to upgrade to the latests and greatest could potentially offer enhancements | 04:50 |

| CiSense | Beldar, oops that should have been 13.10 | 04:54 |
| Beldar | CiSense, Kernel upgrades should show with a sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 04:56 |
| CiSense | Beldar, I used the gui "upgrade" option | 04:57 |
| DrewsephA | i need a lot of help, is there anyone who can dedicate a chunk of time (30 min or more) to helping me? | 04:57 |
| jellow | CiSense, Unrelated but you can view the changelog with apt-get changelog linux-image-3.13.0, although it is not in layman terms | 04:57 |
| CiSense | Beldar, jellow so i should just do this "sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" ? | 04:58 |
| A-Ubuntu-User | greetings. is this the help channel for ubuntu? | 04:58 |
| Beldar | CiSense, the gui software update is fine | 04:59 |

| jellow | CiSense, yes or sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade the latter will never remove installed packages however is more likely to fail if you're using as a desktop should not matter. | 05:04 |
| jellow | CiSense, I do not mean to confuse your both are valid commands and will upgrade your system and kernel included | 05:05 |
| Beldar | upgrade only wont upgarde the kernel | 05:06 |

| CiSense | jellow, Beldar ok i did: sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade it upgraded the software center | 05:10 |
| Beldar | jellow, A kernel upgrade within a kernel will, upa version needs dist-upgrade | 05:11 |
| oneof3 | hello. when i click the suond icon the "sound settings" does not open. | 05:12 |
| jellow | Beldar, is that because it is considered as a new package ? | 05:13 |
| Beldar | jellow, Heh, not sure, I am not real clear on the dist-upgrade parameters, not ever having a problem there basically. | 05:14 |
| Beldar | At least since understanding partial upgrades, lol | 05:14 |
| CiSense | no harm done apparently and now I have an upgraded softer center running on 14.04 with a 3.11 kermel | 05:16 |
| Beldar | CiSense, You have to reboot if you had a kernel in that upgrade, was there any there? | 05:17 |
| jellow | Beldar, ah well thanks anyway nice know always used upgrade up to now. | 05:17 |
| oneof3 | installed xfce4-mixer and it worked | 05:17 |
| kurtqiao | hi guys, may i confirm that Ubuntu already support secure boot enable since 12.04? | 05:17 |
| kurtqiao | i notice "Microsoft signs Canonical's 'shim' 1st stage bootloader with their 'Microsoft Corporation UEFI CA'." on wiki web site | 05:18 |
| Beldar | jellow, Are you rooting the terminal for updates and upgrades? | 05:18 |
| CiSense | Beldar, nope only 325 kB | 05:19 |
| jellow | Beldar, yes | 05:19 |
| Beldar | CiSense, Something is up, if you are running 14.04 you should be getting a later kernel. I have to go to work, others would be better in this area really. | 05:20 |

| netyire | Seven_Six_Two: the options here are (1) troubleshoot xorg and reinstall nvidia drivers (2) determine if graphical corruption is due to hardware | 06:01 |
| Seven_Six_Two | netyire, the 428CA is a regional model. It was sold in Canada. Those suggestions are why I'm trying to boot from usb, but for some reason it's not being detected. | 06:01 |

| netyire | Seven_Six_Two: Ubuntu has tried & tested support for Nvidia hardware, can you obtain installation medium through other means? | 06:05 |
| Seven_Six_Two | netyire, unfortunately not. I have 2 computers only, and this one doesn't have a burner in it. Maybe another day... | 06:05 |
| Gr4cchus | can anyone help me trouble shoot a problem with a ppa for numix? | 06:07 |
| netyire | Seven_Six_Two: make sure to verify the integrity of the installation media at boot, and boot failsafe first to determine it isn't the hardware just to be sure | 06:08 |

| wickedheadache | all netbooklaptop desktop devices can be accessed or monitored or just load un used stuff into memory and cycles | 06:13 |
| Seven_Six_Two | mwally_, I believe that there are special software packages for that chipset. | 06:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | mwally_, look in synaptic package manager. | 06:14 |

| energizer1 | Chromium lags *heavily* on amazon and other sites, but it doesn't when I'm incognito. Help? | 06:18 |
| Seven_Six_Two | netyire, interesting, additional drivers says I'm using nvidia binary 331.38 but glxinfo | grep direct doesn't show direct rendering (shows extension GLX missing on display :0.0 | 06:19 |
| Seven_Six_Two | energizer1, remove excess plugins | 06:19 |
| netyire | Seven_Six_Two: try removing the nvidia drivers, this will cause X to fallback on vesa drivers. You'll lose advance rendering , but it should be more stable | 06:20 |
| netyire | Seven_Six_Two: perhaps the wrong nvidia-fglrx package was installed | 06:20 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest29563 | ||
| Seven_Six_Two | netyire, I was considering installing the 173 version. I've used it before iirc. I'll check the package that you mentioned too. | 06:20 |
| netyire | Seven_Six_Two: I'm looking up the package for the 8200M, one moment | 06:21 |

| Seven_Six_Two | netyire, thankfully I know how to use bash when this all goes wrong ;) | 06:22 |
| energizer1 | is there any way to speed up chromium even with my extensions on (i like them)? | 06:22 |
| Seven_Six_Two | energizer1, get more memory, faster pc, shut down other programs that aren't needed. | 06:22 |
| Seven_Six_Two | energizer1, it might only be 1 plugin. you could disable them incrementally to see which is giving the issue. | 06:23 |
| energizer1 | Seven_Six_Two: i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz × 8 with 16gb ram... so ya maybe there's just one culprit | 06:23 |
| Seven_Six_Two | energizer1, lol. likely. what about internet speed? could a plugin be sending/receiving data? | 06:24 |
| igoos | need help | 06:25 |
| netyire | Seven_Six_Two: the wire reports rampant difficulties with the 8200 M, it's supposed to be solved with the 173 package. 2 threads mention compiling from a specific source package, 1 references this ppa: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa | 06:25 |

| Rickkk | So I was wondering whether you have encoutered such problem in Ubuntu, given that it's the most common distro | 07:57 |
| DQSII | so im really liking the final release of 14.04 i run a dual boot of ubuntu and win 7 and i did a fresh install tonight of 14.04 so i could get it in and be good for another 5 yrs or so xD | 07:59 |
| cson | ubuntu only recognizes 3 out of my 4 gigs of memory (according to free -m). Anybody else notice this? | 07:59 |
| cson | ubuntu 14 that is | 07:59 |

| Tex_Nick | Rickkk: well in the sound settings manager, Pulse is set by default to 100%, however you can enable it to "allow louder than 100%(may distort sound)" ... not really if that answers your issue though ? | 08:02 |

| theukdave | Hiya, I have a system that's deployed in an Ubuntu (12.04) VM (multiple installations across the world) and we need to update the system to disable the recovery mode on the grub menu. We have a way for users to send an encrypted package into the VM to perform updates. I have created such a package to do this update but sometimes when running it during testing, it would completely nerf the grub of a VM, and the VM would only boot to the grub command li | 08:48 |
| theukdave | The package we send in, contains a simple script (http://paste.ubuntu.com/7328354/), which replaces the standard grub file in our VMs (http://paste.ubuntu.com/7328269/) with the new one (http://paste.ubuntu.com/7328274/), there's only 1 line difference between the 2 files, and that's the uncommenting of the GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true" line. | 08:48 |
| theukdave | If anyone has any ideas why this might sometime break the grub config, I'd be really appreciate for your help. | 08:48 |
| sta7ic | rvraghav93: there might be, i cant check every thread on the error in the make.log for you heh =] | 08:48 |
| onca | do I have to turn cron on some how or will my cron script run at it's scheduled time automatically with ubuntu magic | 08:49 |
| onca | ??? | 08:49 |
| rvraghav93 | sta7ic: haha :) no problem ... Thanks a lot though ;) | 08:49 |
| sta7ic | onca: each user has a crontab (crontab -l) to list, in that list you can submit jobs at different intervals (crontab -e) for edit i believe | 08:50 |
| cfhowlett | !broadcom > cfhowlett | 08:51 |
| ubottu | cfhowlett, please see my private message | 08:51 |
| onca | okay, I hear you, but I thought all I had to do was create say /etc/cron.d/renew and in it write the line | 08:51 |
| onca | 26 4* * *user/home/user/craigslist/CraigsRenewer/renew.sh | 08:51 |

| onca | I personally wouldn't | 09:05 |
| sta7ic | i dont! always takes me at least 10 times to get it to boot | 09:05 |

| mikecmpbll | anyone know how I can determine whether the hard disk is an SDD? | 10:05 |
| mikecmpbll | SSD* | 10:05 |
| mikecmpbll | bought a VPS recently which is meant to be SSD but it just feels slow doing IO intensive tasks. | 10:06 |
| mikecmpbll | :/ | 10:06 |
| k1l | Mike9863: sudo lshw | 10:07 |
| k1l | hmm well. i dont know if that will tell the real hardware of that host | 10:07 |
| netyire | mikecmpbll: gnome-disk-utility also has the information you want | 10:07 |
| k1l | Mike9863: but on a vps you will always have speed-blockers because other vps on that same machine will cause performance | 10:08 |
| DarkKnightCZ | mikecmpbll: you can see what harddrive is it -> sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda|grep "Model Number:" | 10:08 |
| DarkKnightCZ | but in case of VPS, it will be probably emulated | 10:09 |
| zetheroo | trying to setup my NFS mounts in 14.04, so I added the fstab entries which I used in 12.04 but when I do 'mount -a' I get a bunch of these messages: mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking. | 10:09 |
| zetheroo | mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd. | 10:09 |
| zetheroo | do i need to reboot after having install nfs-kernel-server ? | 10:10 |
| bekks | zetheroo: No. | 10:10 |
| Kartagis | I've got two kernel entries in GRUB; 3.8.0-19-generic and 3.13.0-24-generic. when I select 3.13.0-24-generic, keyboard and mouse render useless. any ideas? | 10:11 |
| mikecmpbll | k1l, netyire, DarkKnightCZ: thanks guys, anything that can be determined from https://gist.github.com/mikecmpbll/3cc849c61987ec68fb81 ? | 10:13 |
| zetheroo | bekks: ok - do you have any idea why this is not working for me? | 10:13 |
| bekks | zetheroo: Define "not working". Tell us what you did, what you expect to happen and what happened - and which Ubuntu release you are on. | 10:14 |
| zetheroo | bekks: as I said "I added the fstab entries which I used in 12.04" and then did 'mount -a' - the desired result would be for the NFS exports to mount successfully on my machine - as they have been doing for years under 12.04 using the identical method. This method is no longer working for me .. perhaps something to do with the 'mount.nfs' messages I pasted!? | 10:17 |
| DarkKnightCZ | mikecmpbll: probably nothing... but you can try read test (sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sdX) to see, if it's slow | 10:18 |
| zetheroo | bekks: The lines I have added in fstab look like this: tank:/mnt/tank/shares/scratch /media/scratch nfs rw 0 0 | 10:19 |
| mikecmpbll | DarkKnightCZ: great, will do thanks! | 10:19 |
| DarkKnightCZ | no problem | 10:19 |
| mikecmpbll | Timing cached reads: 5324 MB in 2.00 seconds = 2657.37 MB/sec | 10:20 |

| ztane | guest acco, other users work, no xsession errors... any ideas? | 10:22 |
| DarkKnightCZ | mikecmpbll: well, it's definitelly not ssd :) (or heavily loaded ssd), mine gives me ~220 MB/sec (the second param)... there are usually many VPS on single hw, so the performance won't be great | 10:22 |

| lucidau | hi, how can I hibernate my 14.04 desktop? | 10:24 |
| DarkKnightCZ | lucidau: try https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html | 10:25 |
| bekks | zetheroo: Well - the kernel _server_ is running on the server, not the client. So why do you try to mount nfs shares on your server? | 10:26 |
| zetheroo | bekks: I am not trying to mount nfs shares on the machine serving out the shares ... this is on a client ... | 10:27 |
| ztane | so any help for debugging, xsession errors is empty | 10:28 |
| zetheroo | bekks: 'tank' is where the NFS shares are being exported from - I am trying to mount those shares on my laptop | 10:28 |
| bekks | zetheroo: So it is a zfs tank? | 10:29 |
| zetheroo | bekks: yes, I believe 'tank' is using ZFS | 10:30 |
| bekks | zetheroo: Well, you should know that ;) | 10:30 |
| davison | Having an issue with aliases. Have updated both .bashrc and .zshrc, and 'source'd, however my alias does not seem to be changing. Wondering if there are any other locations that bash or zsh might have modified? | 10:31 |
| davison | Particular alias, that is. I can add new, so I know that both files are fine. | 10:31 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: is tank an ubuntu server ? | 10:31 |
| ikonia | (sorry if I've missed the backlog) | 10:32 |
| zetheroo | bekks: do I have to install some package on my laptop to be able to use the mounts from an NFS server using ZFS? | 10:32 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: no, it's FreeBSD | 10:32 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: ok, so zfs is an option then, cool | 10:32 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: you can just use the NFS client libraries on your desktop | 10:32 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: from the client zfs is not visible/doesn't matter | 10:32 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: yes, 'tank' is using ZFS | 10:32 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: ok, but it's not working as it did in 12.04 | 10:33 |
| zetheroo | :( | 10:33 |
| ikonia | ok, so expand on that | 10:33 |
| === one is now known as Guest36370 | ||
| zetheroo | expand? | 10:33 |
| bekks | zetheroo: No. All you need is a nfs client - and not a nfs kernel server. | 10:33 |
| zetheroo | bekks: I like having the possibility to also export my own shares ;) | 10:34 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: keep in mind your shouldn't export exports | 10:35 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: this is what I get when I try 'mount -a' : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7328913/ | 10:35 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: is rpc.statd running? | 10:36 |
| ikonia | you need rpc for nfs | 10:36 |
| ikonia | instead of using mount -a, try to mount the individual share manually to get better output, but first fix the rpc problem | 10:36 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: I don't know ... would I see it with 'top'? | 10:36 |
| ikonia | no, top only shows the busy processes | 10:36 |
| zetheroo | oh ok | 10:36 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: what packages did you install for your nfs client ? | 10:36 |
| zetheroo | ps aux ... something? | 10:37 |
| zetheroo | uhm ... | 10:37 |
| zetheroo | nfs-kernel-server ... and it grabbed a few others with it | 10:37 |
| ikonia | ok, nfs kernel isn't the client | 10:37 |
| ikonia | you need the nfs client | 10:37 |
| === G is now known as Guest98481 | ||
| zetheroo | I looked for nfs-client and couldn't find it ... | 10:37 |
| zetheroo | is that the wrong name for the package? | 10:38 |
| lucidau | DarkKnightCZ, that does nothing, lots of hdd noise them I'm at t | 10:38 |
| lucidau | the login screen | 10:38 |
| ikonia | no idea without looking myself (not on ubuntu at the moment) but search for "nfs" and see what's available | 10:38 |
| DarkKnightCZ | lucidau: well, it was worth a try (i don't use hibernation)... anything in dmesg / syslog? | 10:39 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: nfs-common, nfs-kernel-server, nfs4-acl-tools, nfswatch | 10:39 |
| ikonia | I'd assume nfs-common are the basic libs and dependencies enough to use the client | 10:40 |
| ikonia | I'm not on ubuntu at the moment so can't confirm | 10:40 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server are installed ... | 10:41 |
| ikonia | so check if rpc is running | 10:41 |
| ikonia | (any rpc daemons) | 10:41 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: is this it? http://paste.ubuntu.com/7328948/ | 10:44 |
| speiros | Hello people. Does ubuntu require java and flash updates? | 10:45 |
| bekks | speiros: What do you mean by "require" in that context? | 10:45 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: well, that's useful | 10:46 |
| speiros | bekks I was on a site that I can't access without going into a loop and a mac user said they required a java or flash update. | 10:46 |
| ikonia | but that's not statd | 10:46 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: remove the locking option/try to mount it manually without the looking option | 10:46 |
| speiros | I used to be able to access it | 10:46 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: apologies it's hard to be %100 clear as I've not got an ubuntu box to verify to hand | 10:46 |
| bekks | speiros: If some website requires java or flash, that not an Ubuntu requirement. :) | 10:47 |
| speiros | Ok thanks bekks. Also, how well established is the new 14.4 upgrade? | 10:47 |
| bekks | speiros: 14.04 is officially released. | 10:47 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: I am not sure where this "locking option" is | 10:47 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: is it in fstab? | 10:48 |
| speiros | bekks thanks. I'll give it a whirl:) | 10:48 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: yes it's a mount option, best thing to do is to try to mount it manually - forget fstab for now | 10:48 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: this is the fstab line "tank:/mnt/tank/shares/scratch /media/scratch nfs rw 0 0" | 10:48 |
| zetheroo | oh ok | 10:48 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: just try to mount on /tmp/nfs or something like that | 10:48 |
| speiros | Best wishes to you all, and I hope your life is 100% at least better than mine at present. | 10:48 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: so something like this directly in the terminal? "mount tank:/mnt/tank/shares/scratch /media/scratch" | 10:49 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: mount -t nfs tank:/mnt/tank/shares/scratch /media/scratch | 10:50 |
| rolo | Hi all. Serious stuff here. Just setting up some new 14.04 servers with my Ansible playbooks, and it seems that somewhere since 12.04 there's been a change so 99-footer is no longer in /etc/update-motd.d and therefore motd.tail no longer gets displayed so I don't get my glorious/ridiculous over the top custom welcome banner. Sure I could just put my motd.tail msg in that dir at 99-motd.tail, or reinstate the 99-footer script, but I just want to | 10:50 |
| rolo | check if there's some new preferred way of doing this, what with this setup needing to last another 2 years until next LTS and all. :) | 10:50 |
| Bundestrojaner | when installing ubuntu on a ssd, would you store /tmp on hdd or ramdisk? | 10:50 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: ok, I tried that and for the identical 3 lines of 'mount.nfs' messages in return | 10:50 |
| ikonia | Bundestrojaner: depends how much you need and what you need | 10:50 |
| ikonia | I'd certainly remove atime,mtime, etc | 10:51 |
| bekks | Bundestrojaner: Isnt a question of SSD or HDD, but a question of space available and RAM size. | 10:51 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: ok, so either a.) get rpc.statd running or find the option to remove the nfs locking requirement (not recommended) | 10:51 |
| sharkpoofie | hello, i have a custom kernel installed and upgraded to 14.04, but want to revert to the default kernel, which one to install? linux-image-generic-lts-trusty or linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic ? | 10:52 |
| Bundestrojaner | my ram is 16gb, this should be enough. are there any advantages of not loosing /tmp on reboot? | 10:52 |
| ikonia | you always lose /tmp on reboot | 10:52 |
| bekks | Bundestrojaner: data in /tmp is temporary. Loosing it will cause no issues. | 10:52 |
| Bundestrojaner | i know it is temporary - i didn't know it is removed on every reboot | 10:53 |
| bekks | sharkpoofie: linux-image-generic-lts-trusty is the lts enablement kernel for saucy and earlier releases. You are on trusty already, which ships linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic | 10:53 |
| ztane | so how to debug why does not my xsession start | 10:54 |
| Bundestrojaner | following this manual (http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/SSD/Auslagerung) i will set firefox' cache also to /tmp. so the cache will also be lost on reboot | 10:54 |
| ztane | I do not want to recreate my home directory just because | 10:54 |
| sharkpoofie | bekks, uname -a gives me Linux p092 3.14.1 | 10:54 |
| k1l | ztane: are the file permissions right in your /home folder? | 10:54 |
| sharkpoofie | don't know why the default kernel was not installed | 10:55 |
| k1l | ztane: ls -al in home folder should show everything with user:user | 10:55 |
| bekks | sharkpoofie: "uname -a" gives you much more. | 10:55 |
| sharkpoofie | Linux p092 3.14.1 #1 SMP Thu Apr 17 11:53:56 CEST 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 10:55 |

| sharkpoofie | aah ok, then i'll install the linux-image-generic one | 10:56 |
| sharkpoofie | thank you! | 10:56 |
| Bundestrojaner | ok, so i would mount the ssd as /, a 500GB hdd as /home and a ramdisk as /tmp. | 10:56 |
| Bundestrojaner | does muon downloads the package files also to /tmp? | 10:56 |
| bekks | Bundestrojaner: you can configure every application where to store downloads. | 10:57 |
| Bundestrojaner | ok, great | 10:57 |
| bekks | Bundestrojaner: And the package manager frontends dont store any files, thats done by the package management system, which uses /var/cache/apt/archive/ | 10:57 |
| ztane | k1l: solved, surprisingly I had .Xauthority owned by root since... 2012... | 10:58 |
| ztane | k1l: wonder why it worked before... | 10:58 |
| sharkpoofie | k1l & bekks : i was just not sure which one to install :D thanks | 10:58 |
| === seren is now known as sarin | ||
| k1l | ztane: that means you fiddeling with startx as root or running gui with sudo. | 10:58 |

So I started a root terminal session and did 'mount -a' and they all mounted. Then I rebooted again, opened nautilus and, bingo, all the mounts are there and accessible right away! | 11:08 |

| Myhrlpko | im in it now., | 12:39 |

| IdleOne | foo357: the upgrade-manager will automatically disable any PPA's you have enabled before upgrading. You will then need to enable them again after the upgrade finished. Know that 12.04 LTS won't be offered an upgrade until the 14.04.1 point release in July | 12:40 |

| Rory | Myhrlpko: You don't need to be booted into the newer kernel version to do so (someome please correct me if I'm wrong) | 12:42 |
| Myhrlpko | why would I when on 19 driver works. | 12:42 |
| foo357 | IdleOne: and that doing a 'sudo dist-upgrade' will be available in july? | 12:42 |

| === ikonia is now known as Guest8168 | ||
| netyire | Myhrlpko: kindly be specific, are you trying to recover data from an encrypted partition in your live session or setup graphic drivers on a new installation? if you are trying to perform both, please focus on recovering/backing-up your data prior to setting up your new system and configuring your graphic card :-) | 12:43 |
| Rory | Myhrlpko: If it were me, I would completely uninstall the fglrx (AMD) graphics card driver, boot into the newer kernel, and then re-install it | 12:43 |
| IdleOne | foo357: I mean that the recommend path is to wait until July 24 when 14.04.1 is released. | 12:44 |
| foo357 | IdleOne: hm, ok. That work too. | 12:44 |
| Rory | Myhrlpko: Another option is to just always have Grub boot into a working kernel version, if you want to do that, there's instructions here http://askubuntu.com/a/216420 - you can follow them from .19 | 12:44 |
| Myhrlpko | Rory: I am afraid that after uninstal of driver in 19 | 12:44 |

| aysorth | designbybeck: had the same issue with one of the kernels while 14.04 was unstable | 12:52 |
| aysorth | designbybeck: turned out to be a problem with non-proprietary graphic drivers | 12:53 |
| aysorth | Try checking that | 12:53 |
| designbybeck | aysorth, now that you mention that ....I haven't tried to install any video driver yet | 12:54 |
| designbybeck | was thinking i't run with stock first | 12:54 |
| designbybeck | I've got a NVIDA Quadro Pro 2000..... it is horrible | 12:54 |
| designbybeck | it's all they'd let me order with this system | 12:55 |
| aysorth | Well I'm stuck with Optimus now, it's a choice - hot or slow. NVIDIA and Linux = pain. :P | 12:55 |
| bekks | aysorth: nvidia non-optimus works like a charm for me, for a decade now. | 12:56 |
| designbybeck | aysorth, it's got much better though....just not this card | 12:56 |
| [nitro] | my friend had problem with asus laptop with hd radeon graphics from 2009 series..fan was working really hard after 15 min and probably graphic was heating .. can someone tell me how is now with new version ? any amd experience from card from 2008 or 2009 .... i tried fglrx but didnt work but maybe i didnt do correctly wirh fglrx on 13.10 then i move back and heating was present | 12:56 |
| mikhael | I just created a partition "Linux File System:8300" using gdisk, however, It doesn't seem to be listed when using blkid | 12:57 |
| bekks | [nitro]: you have to know the exact graphics chipset. | 12:57 |
| aysorth | bekks: Yeah, I know. But try buing an efficient notebook without Optimus and not priced like HP ink :P | 12:57 |
| bekks | aysorth: then get some Dell. | 12:57 |
| [nitro] | bekks: just a sec i will check if i still have model here at home | 12:57 |
| goneeuro | netyire: So no go. to clarify. I am on xubuntu 14.04. and when I hit the volume up button on the headset wire controls its like it gets stuck and continues to increase. Same with mute and volume down. If I click the mute button it will mute on and off over continusly until i unplug the headset. | 12:57 |
| aysorth | I'd love to. BUt funemployment doesn't pay enough :P | 12:57 |
| bekks | aysorth: then you are stuck with low-end optimus ;) | 12:58 |
| [nitro] | bekks: i dont have history anymore . but if i correctly remeber it was radeon hd 3470 | 12:58 |
| netyire | goneeuro: am I correct to understand the nature of the problem has changed from controlling an incorrect audio device to maladjusting the correct audio device? | 12:58 |
| [nitro] | series 3 or 4 for sure | 12:59 |
| bekks | [nitro]: 3 or 4 is not "exact" :) | 12:59 |
| [nitro] | 3470 | 12:59 |
| goneeuro | No, sorry. I was to vague with my initial explination. The controls have worked like this the whole time. | 12:59 |

| mikhael | yeats: It only says EXT4-fs (sda4): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem | 14:20 |
| yeats | mikhael: what about 'sudo fdisk -l' - does that show the partition? | 14:20 |

| troulouliou_dev | hi where can i get more information for this error when migrating from 13.10 to 14.04 -> Could not calculate the upgrade . An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. .. | 14:46 |
| ActionParsnip | troulouliou_dev: disable all PPAs | 14:46 |
| jon_c | Rory: "killall unity" told me no "no process found", "pgrep unity" give 10 processes, i killed them all. one keeps restarting itself. logout prompt still there | 14:46 |
| Dave8503 | ActionParsnip, yes | 14:46 |
| kostkon | Dave8503, search in the software centre, there are some e.g. https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/allvideodownloader/ https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/vulgry/ etc | 14:46 |
| troulouliou_dev | ActionParsnip, it is not done automatically ? | 14:47 |
| becker_11 | troulouliou_dev: have you done an apt-get update apt-get upgrade? | 14:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Dave8503: then why not use youtube-mp3.org | 14:47 |
| troulouliou_dev | ActionParsnip, im using do-release-upgrade on laptop | 14:47 |
| Dave8503 | I need some deep house remixes as mp3's on my phone | 14:47 |
| jon_c | rory: any unity-world ideas? or flags i should've put on killall? i tried the obvious like case insensitive | 14:47 |
| ActionParsnip | troulouliou_dev: no idea, I always clean install | 14:47 |
| Dave8503 | vimeo too | 14:47 |
| troulouliou_dev | becker_11, yes but no reboot . maybe related as it installed latest 13.10 kernel | 14:47 |
| becker_11 | troulouliou_dev: reboot then try again | 14:47 |
| troulouliou_dev | ok will try to reboot | 14:47 |

| sasuke | thanks | 15:16 |
| mynameisdeleted | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/3.13.0-19.40 should that compile a compatible chagned kernel module? | 15:18 |
| mynameisdeleted | I'm makign the dm raid module give read errors, but not fail drives when it reads bad blocks | 15:19 |
| mynameisdeleted | so I can use fsck.ext2 witha bad blocks list on an md device | 15:19 |
| bekks | mynameisdeleted: Thats a new kernel package release, not a single kernel module. | 15:19 |
| nestle20 | im having to install the OS myself on this new remote dedicated server.. it has two 2TB drives and im trying to do raid1.. if the machine has 16 GB of ram do i need to still create swap? | 15:20 |
| nestle20 | or is 16 enough | 15:20 |
| bigred15 | Depending on what it is used for, nestle20. | 15:20 |
| bekks | nestle20: If you want to avoid the out of memory killer killing random processes in case of being out of memory: create swap. If you want to use hibernation: create swap as large as your RAM. | 15:21 |
| nestle20 | okay well this box has 2x2TB so im wanting to do raid1 and if i want to create a 8 GB swap would i be setting both /dev/sda and /dev/sdb to 1992 GB? or am i making this too complicated | 15:22 |
| Kritta | Actionparsnip and several others helped me with a graphics card issue and a pipelight installation, thank you very much for all of your help. Everything is running quite smooth now | 15:22 |
| salsero|2 | nestle20: if you raid device doesnt ocupy the entire disks, you can have swap on 1 only | 15:23 |
| bekks | nestle20: much too complicated ;) just create 16.1G (a bit larger than 16G RAM for hibernation) on each disk, so you can use hibernation even if one disk dies. | 15:23 |
| bekks | salsero|2: then he wouldnt be able to use hibernation if the disk with the swap device dies. | 15:23 |
| mynameisdeleted | I can compile a built in module by compilign the entire kernel right? | 15:24 |
| mynameisdeleted | and then if its patched to match I should be able to modprobe it | 15:24 |
| === Rynofear is now known as Rynomster | ||
| salsero|2 | ye, but one disk failing seems more serious to me than not having hibernation | 15:24 |
| bekks | mynameisdeleted: Just install the binary package for that source package - you dont have to compile anything on your own. | 15:25 |
| bekks | salsero|2: and 16G out of 2x2TB is - not much :) | 15:25 |
| nestle20 | when i create the swap | 15:26 |
| nestle20 | is it primary or logical ? | 15:26 |
| nestle20 | and beginning or end ? | 15:26 |
| nestle20 | or does it not matter | 15:26 |
| mynameisdeleted | I just want to chagne 1 line of md.c to prevent it from failing a raid array on the first read error | 15:27 |
| mynameisdeleted | instead it just returns read error | 15:27 |
| mynameisdeleted | if most drives read the sector and one fails it can still spit it out but if different ones have different read errors at different positions then that can result in multiple drives being listed as failed | 15:27 |
| mynameisdeleted | an dmake it hard to read an entire array | 15:27 |
| mynameisdeleted | ext4 on a signle drive handles bad blocks gracefully.. just do a bad-blocks scan | 15:28 |

| lostmymind | bekks are you knowledgeable in flash on linux? | 15:31 |
| bekks | lostmymind: Why dont you ask your actual support question instead? :) | 15:31 |
| holstein | lostmymind: no one is really allowed to be.. its closed source, and not supported any longer | 15:31 |
| holstein | lostmymind: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ i use either chrome or the chrome flash in chromium when i need flash support | 15:32 |
| bigred15 | Does anyone know how to configure rxvt-unicode to use right-mouse click as paste, as opposed to middle-click? | 15:33 |
| lostmymind | bekks well, when I DON'T install flash, youtube works semi-ok. It freezes up/lags, but videos DO play. They ask for flash to be installed, but they play anyways. Once I install flash and the restricted extras, the box that would be the video is now just either a grey box, or a white box. No video, no sound. | 15:34 |

| mynameisdeleted | scsi drives read , chekc for and remap bad sectors in firmware | 15:34 |
| bigred15 | lostmymind: I had that issue, but I thought it was a difference between HTML5/Flash. | 15:34 |
| mynameisdeleted | sata depends on the userspace utils to do that | 15:34 |
| bekks | lostmymind: native flash for linux is deprecated by Adobe. Use chrome and the built-in flash module. | 15:35 |
| mynameisdeleted | how well does chrome flash work.. is that open source? | 15:35 |
| lostmymind | bigred15 did you get it fixed? | 15:35 |
| bekks | mynameisdeleted: all those wheels are already invented. On filesystem level. | 15:35 |
| bigred15 | lostmymind: I had the issue on 12.04, ever since moving to 14.04, the issue has not existed. | 15:35 |
| mynameisdeleted | yeah.. but 3 bad blcoks on different drives in riad6 can fail the array | 15:36 |
| bekks | mynameisdeleted: every raid can fail. | 15:36 |
| holstein | lostmymind: sure. let youtube know of your issues.. otherwise, try the latest supported flash using what adobe provides via chrome or the chromium pepperflash.. or, html5, where available | 15:36 |
| bekks | mynameisdeleted: a raid is not intended to be failsafe at all use cases. | 15:36 |
| lostmymind | bekks can you extract just the flash portion of chrome and apply it to firefox? | 15:36 |
| bekks | lostmymind: No. | 15:36 |
| holstein | lostmymind: you can apply that to chromium | 15:37 |
| bigred15 | is chromium 64bit? | 15:37 |
| mynameisdeleted | so the proper action woudl be to read the entrie array withotu failign any disks.. recreate waht you can and back up onto antoher medium | 15:37 |
| holstein | lostmymind: the latest supported verison of flash for linux in firefox is, as stated at https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ an older version | 15:37 |
| mynameisdeleted | not top stop the backup half way through | 15:37 |
| lostmymind | Is there a such thing as an open source flash alternative? | 15:38 |
| bekks | bigred15: Yes. | 15:38 |
| bekks | lostmymind: There are, but none of them are compatible with all flash version requirements. | 15:38 |
| lostmymind | bekks so basically they don't work yet? | 15:39 |
| tzvi | lostmymind: they all suck :-) | 15:39 |
| tzvi | pretty much | 15:39 |
| bekks | lostmymind: They do work, but none of them is compatible with all versions requirements. | 15:39 |
| holstein | lostmymind: the latest provided by adobe for chrome, that works with chromium is the latest, and "best" for recent flash content | 15:40 |

| holstein | lostmymind: i think some consider a lack of flash support a "feature" ;) | 15:43 |

| Seven_Six_Two | [nitro], mine is stable, although I have an older laptop with nvidia and had to downgrade my nvidia driver because of really bad instability with the newest one. | 15:56 |

| [nitro] | what about amd radeon laptop .. and 14.04 .. my previous question round 15:00 and later so was about asus x50sl laptop with older hd radeon 3470 model graphics .. something is making fan very fast... would be better to try with 14.04 and amd fglrx or native ???? | 16:00 |
| junka | holstein, does ubuntu-bug require to have a lanchpad account? | 16:00 |
| holstein | junka: not sure about the requirements.. i have an account and havent tried without | 16:01 |
| bekks | [nitro]: First check wether fglrx supports your card. | 16:01 |
| bekks | [nitro]: And thats why you have to be absolutely sure which device it is. | 16:02 |
| [nitro] | on label said hd radeon 3470 thats for sure i called owner he cheked | 16:02 |
| nestle20 | so i just got done installing raid1 (2x2TB). box is 2 mins fresh online (uptime).. i ran cat /proc/mdstat and it says resync = 1.6%.. so does this mean i should wait until i start throwing on my 600gb of files? or can i just go ahead now? [>....................] resync = 1.6% (31443072/1945569088) finish=612.9min speed=52048K/sec | 16:03 |
| depesto | Hello | 16:03 |
| Aaruni | [nitro], lspci | grep VGA ? | 16:03 |
| nestle20 | software raid of course* | 16:04 |
| depesto | Can someone help me with a boot error im getting on a new install? | 16:04 |
| bekks | nestle20: you can continue. Just wait for rsync to finish before rebooting. | 16:04 |
| Aaruni | holstein, "Requesting support: there are a multitude of ways you can get help using Ubuntu, such as the Launchpad answer tracker, the Ask Ubuntu site, the Ubuntu forums, the #ubuntu channel on the Freenode IRC server, and the ubuntu-users mailing list. " | 16:04 |
| Aaruni | so, does this go into bug, or support, ? | 16:05 |
| [nitro] | RV620/RV635 Radeon HD 3410/3430/3450/3470/3650/3670 .. this is fully suported 3470 is inside | 16:05 |
| moparisthebest | where is the trusty alternate cd? | 16:05 |
| nestle20 | thank you bekks | 16:05 |
| holstein | Aaruni: cheers.. im not seeking support avenues at this time.. | 16:05 |
| depesto | support I think | 16:05 |
| [nitro] | i will try again to install fglrx | 16:05 |
| Dreadlish | eh | 16:05 |
| Dreadlish | fglrx is unsupported for hd3xxx | 16:05 |
| Aaruni | holstein, no, I meant my problem., soundconverter refuses to take video input (haven't tried audio input yet) | 16:06 |
| holstein | Aaruni: OH.. i see.. you stated there was a bug.. i would look for an already existing bug report, and if there is not one, start one, and try and get the issue duplicated | 16:06 |
| holstein | Aaruni: soundconverter is just that, though.. i use it often.. its not for video | 16:06 |
| [nitro] | dreadlish: thats that | 16:06 |
| Dreadlish | cards up to hd5xxx are unsupported iirc. | 16:06 |
| depesto | anyone have any idea what to do with error attempt to write outside of hd0? I tried everything in the docs | 16:07 |
| Aaruni | holstein, the website claims that it will take anything gstreamer can handle, and video files worked back in precise (12.04) | 16:07 |
| [nitro] | Dreadlish, and i can't use fgrlx right ? | 16:07 |
| holstein | Aaruni: i never tried, but you'd need to make sure you are running the claimed version | 16:07 |
| Dreadlish | yup. | 16:07 |
| Dreadlish | it won't be working | 16:07 |
| Aaruni | holstein, "it used to work in precise pangolian" | 16:07 |
| holstein | Aaruni: the repo version will be locked, potentially, before that feature | 16:07 |
| STPI | guys, I just installed NVIDIA binary driver (proprietary) instead of "Nouveau display driver" open source. Now when I start my computer, at the password screen for the encryption passphrase, it's all pixelated and oldschool (that was normal when using default open source driver). Any idea? | 16:07 |
| [nitro] | yes beaucse i tried and then needed to restore back | 16:08 |
| holstein | Aaruni: did it work in 12.04 for you? | 16:08 |
| Aaruni | yes | 16:08 |
| holstein | Aaruni: ok.. then, file a bug if you feel you have one.. try and get someone to confirm | 16:08 |
| holstein | Aaruni: i would want to be using similar "known good" video files to test with | 16:08 |
| [nitro] | Dreadlish, and what now ? what about 14.04 and basic driver should i try ? | 16:08 |
| Aaruni | holstein, some videos downloaded via youtube-dl | 16:08 |
| Aaruni | half a minute videos | 16:09 |
| holstein | Aaruni: sure.. try *known* *good* video.. not illegally obtained ones | 16:09 |
| Dreadlish | [nitro]: you should stay with open radeon driver | 16:09 |
| Aaruni | :/ | 16:09 |
| [nitro] | another important question for that case .. is better to do do-release-upgrade in terminal either on gui because of this problem of fan and laptop is hot after some not so big time | 16:10 |
| Kartagis | hi | 16:10 |
| Aaruni | holstein, the video "how fast.ogg" works, but when it is converted to .mkv via handbrake, it no longer works.. | 16:11 |
| Kartagis | I have a problem with my video | 16:11 |
| Kartagis | any video plays in slow motion | 16:11 |
| holstein | Aaruni: sure, so maybe you dont have a soundconverter issue, there.. but mayb e a source video issue | 16:11 |
| Kartagis | what do I do? | 16:11 |
| holstein | Kartagis: *any*? or just flash? | 16:11 |

| [nitro] | and this my friend dont use batery he use without battery in maybe something with that ? | 16:11 |
| Kartagis | holstein: any | 16:11 |
| uueslewhy | quit | 16:12 |
| Kartagis | holstein: yea, confirmed. any | 16:12 |
| holstein | Kartagis: i might start simple with just making sure i have applied all upgrades available. then, i might try live CD's to isolate an issue with my installed system. then another user, such as the guest user to isolate my user config | 16:12 |
| [nitro] | this is core 2 duo machine is battery need for more power maybe ? | 16:13 |
| holstein | Kartagis: then, maybe move on to video driver.. i would be also using a known good, simple ogg video to test. in something like vlc, or something im comfortable using | 16:13 |
| aPpYe | When I run do-release-upgrade, it wants to uninstall a metapackage that I use to install most of my systems along with most, but not all of its dependencies. | 16:13 |
| aPpYe | Can I do something to the metapackage to make do-release-upgrade "like" my metapackage? | 16:13 |
| aPpYe | Perhaps there is some configuration set somewhere to make do-release-upgrade not mess with my metapackage? | 16:13 |
| aPpYe | All machines were originally built from ubuntu mini 13.10. The same metapackage installs fine on a fresh 14.04 ubuntu mini install. | 16:13 |

| Aaruni | holstein, is this satisfactory for a bug report : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/soundconverter/+bug/1312820 ? | 16:17 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1312820 in soundconverter (Ubuntu) "soundconverter no longer takes video input" [Undecided,New] | 16:17 |
| moparisthebest | so how can I use the installer that used to come with the alternate cd? | 16:18 |
| holstein | Aaruni: its a good start, id say | 16:21 |
| holstein | Aaruni: keep in mind, it doesnt ship with 14.04, so, you might want to be more proactive upstream if you want this to be addressed | 16:21 |
| Aaruni | holstein, I don't really know how to report bugs. I found trusty, and then I found soundconverter, and then I filed a bug. | 16:22 |
| holstein | Aaruni: i would appreciate it if you wouldnt refer to the whole of 14.04 as "buggy" due to this action you have found | 16:22 |
| holstein | Aaruni: i use soundconverter routinely, and had no idea it was created or intended to make audio from video | 16:22 |
| gr33n7007h | Are most joypads plug and play in linux? | 16:22 |
| nestle20 | On this dedicated server that i remotely had to install ubuntu 13.10, my interface is p6p1 instead of eth0 ? when running ifconfig.. is this normal ? lol | 16:23 |
| holstein | Aaruni: als, whhat you said above was, another tool didnt create the audio from the video either.. so, you may want to look at what soundconverter is using and see if that is broken.. gstreamer.. for example | 16:23 |
| Aaruni | holstein, I used to use it a lot, and it works like a charm, converting anything you throw at it to .ogg in precise | 16:23 |
| Aaruni | holstein, I am trying to read about that | 16:23 |
| Kartagis | holstein: okay, it's the driver | 16:24 |
| Kartagis | holstein: the driver in my current installation | 16:25 |
| holstein | Aaruni: i would be interested in helping you confirm it.. but, i want the *same* files to be used. so, you find a known good video, not from youtube, and try it.. if it fails, share that video with me, and i'll test | 16:25 |
| dusf123 | this pastebin mount /dev/vg/shared at boot, along with /dev/vg/ubuntu-root, /dev/vg/home, and /dev/vg/swap, but i am unable to create files in shared. i have tried replacing the command 'sudo mount /dev/vg/ubuntu-root /mnt' with 'sudo mount /dev/vg/shared /mnt' but then when i go onto the next command 'sudo chroot /mnt mount /proc' it gives me the error 'chroot: failed to run command ‘mount’: No such file or directory'. can anyone tell me how i should | 16:25 |
| holstein | Kartagis: so, maybe there is an alternative closed source driver you can try | 16:26 |
| Aaruni | holstein, in your home folder, there is an Examples folder, inside that there is "How Fast.ogg" | 16:26 |
| Aaruni | convert that to .mkv, and try using soundconverter, to see the bug | 16:26 |
| holstein | Aaruni: nah.. you'll give me *exactly* the same file you have | 16:26 |
| holstein | Aaruni: you can PM me for email, or whatever you like | 16:26 |

| moparisthebest | so no one knows what happened to the alternate cd? | 16:36 |
| starrats | goode afternoon everyone! | 16:36 |
| OerHeks | !alternate | 16:36 |
| ubottu | The alternate CD has been discontinued for the main Ubuntu distro, please use and report any bugs in the !LiveCD | 16:36 |
| Beldar | moparisthebest, been replaced by the mini. | 16:37 |
| moparisthebest | mini? | 16:37 |
| yeats | !mini | moparisthebest | 16:37 |
| ubottu | moparisthebest: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 16:37 |
| OerHeks | alternate is no longer needed, use the live cd or just the ubuntu iso to make lvm/encrypted lvm | 16:37 |
| OerHeks | or mini | 16:37 |
| OerHeks | yeats + 1 | 16:37 |
| moparisthebest | so the problem is I want an encrypted root without an LVM | 16:38 |

| junka | hello i need help to fill a bug report | 16:46 |
| chowder | does anyone know how to uninstall all of unity without destroying the desktop setup? I'm using Gnome. | 16:46 |
| junka | chowder, there is ubuntu Gnome you know | 16:47 |
| chowder | junka, I'm not going to reinstall Ubuntu just so I can have gnome. All I had to was apt-get install gnome-shell. | 16:47 |
| nestle20 | if my raid1 is doing a resync and im throwing files on there wont that prolong the resync time ? it says finish=648.6min right now | 16:47 |
| ubernoob | quick question: does installing gnome-shell also install gnome-session-fallback? | 16:49 |
| junka | ubernoob, no | 16:49 |
| skinnymg1 | chowder, then just make sure you log in using gnome and leave unity alone. it isn't going to hurt anything. | 16:49 |
| blocky | can someone explain the difference between smb/gvfs/cifs? i am having trouble mounting a windows share from the command line | 16:50 |
| ubernoob | junka, thanks for the answer. Since I have an old computer, I should also install that right? | 16:50 |
| holstein | Aaruni: please try "sudo apt-get install libav-tools" then, "avconv avconv -i How\ fast.mkv -acodec libvorbis output.ogg | 16:50 |
| junka | ubernoob, it's optional | 16:50 |
| ubernoob | actrually I'm looking at the "the following extra packages will be installed" and it's in there, I just didn't see it | 16:51 |
| chowder | skinnymg1, I have a SSD. I'd like to uninstall as many things as possible to reduce writes to my SSD. If I do a system update and it updates software I'm not using then those are unnecessary writes. Why even question my motives? Can't you just tell me how to do it? | 16:51 |

| junka | chowder, google it | 16:52 |

| Aaruni | holstein, it just made another video. I want video -> audio | 16:54 |
| chowder | moparisthebest, yeah that's what I'm saying but because of dependencies removing unity also removes the ubuntu-desktop metapackage. I don't want that to wreak havoc on my desktop | 16:54 |
| holstein | Aaruni: sure, friend.. what i am doing is troubleshooting | 16:54 |
| holstein | Aaruni: im not interested in getting your youtube videos you have stolen into audio files.. i am willing to volunteer some time to you to help determine what this issue is | 16:55 |
| teapotcliff | So ibus keeps going insane with cpu and memory usage after resume. It completely destroys my computer performance - is there a way to 'reset' ibus past dpkg-reconfigure? | 16:55 |

| Guest94534 | it runs and it never reads it | 17:03 |
| holstein | !firewall | gr1sha | 17:03 |
| ubottu | gr1sha: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 17:03 |

| bekks | wheresmypaaants: there is no "337.12 open source", since the official nvidia drivers are closed source - nonetheless, just pastebin. | 17:09 |

| STPI | guys do you know how to tweak ubuntu gnome appearance ? like no having thumbnails for all image, videos icons etc.? | 17:13 |
| wheresmypaaants | i might have "asked" for it when i reinstalled terminal. you see, it keeps randomly uninstalling, so when i reinstalled it i rebooted, and thats when it mustve asked | 17:13 |
| wheresmypaaants | cause this reboot caused it | 17:13 |

| thaumiel | good evening! I have a big problem. my canon pixma mg3500 printer drivers were succesfully installed and working. scanner drivers do install but when using simple scan no scanner is found... :( | 17:16 |
| wheresmypaaants | okay, now unity isnt even launching | 17:16 |
| wheresmypaaants | i switched to system default | 17:16 |
| reisio | DQSII: they're two separate things | 17:16 |
| reisio | DQSII: a mixer adjusts levels of audio channels and hardware ports | 17:17 |
| wheresmypaaants | i really dont want to stay on GNOME | 17:17 |

| DQSII | that is what i want the equalizer to adjust bass and treble pulse sounds flat to me by default xD | 17:18 |
| skinnymg1 | desktop* | 17:18 |
| wheresmypaaants | okay, weird thing. its not installed, at all. i didnt uninstall it... | 17:18 |
| wheresmypaaants | the ubuntu desktop, that is | 17:18 |
| Tales | short beginners question: i've started a mini python(flask) webapp thats now running on localhost. how can i stop/end the application/process? | 17:19 |
| wheresmypaaants | so i'll reinstall it, but i want to find out why this happened | 17:19 |
| skinnymg1 | install it and uninstall gnome-shell | 17:19 |
| Tales | tried it with ctrl Z but nothing happens | 17:19 |
| wheresmypaaants | may i note that my desktop loaded | 17:20 |
| wheresmypaaants | but not unity | 17:20 |
| wheresmypaaants | should i reboot for the changes to take effect? | 17:20 |
| thaumiel | okay, so no mg3500 scanner knowledge atm here :) | 17:20 |
| thaumiel | tried google but meh | 17:20 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: logging out and back in should suffice | 17:21 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: logs in /var/log/ | 17:21 |
| wheresmypaaants | reisio: Want my logs? | 17:21 |

| daftykins | thaumiel: are you running said scanner program with sudo? | 17:23 |
| wheresmypaaants | whats the terminal command to logout? i dont have any option do without unity | 17:24 |
| anon95 | 17:25 | |
| thaumiel | daftykins dunno about sudos and stuff. downloaded two zips. other for printer and other for scanner. ran ./install.sh on both. worked on terminal i quess | 17:26 |
| wheresmypaaants | resio: What terminal command to log out of account. No option to do so without unity | 17:26 |
| thaumiel | after that printer asked something like usb or wlan etc. and it worked after that | 17:26 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: just to the login screen? | 17:26 |
| wheresmypaaants | Yes | 17:26 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: sudo service lightdm restart will probably suffice | 17:26 |
| daftykins | thaumiel: is simple scan the command line program or a GUI program? | 17:27 |
| reisio | thaumiel: downloading zips is a good sign you've done something wrong | 17:27 |
| reisio | thaumiel: what model scanner? | 17:27 |

| lostmymind | task manager (lxtask) shows my CPU usage at 100% even though the highest percentage app is at about 3%. How can I figure out whats eating all my CPU usage? | 17:27 |
| thaumiel | those files were in finnish ubuntu forums :) and other worked just fine. simple scanner is GUI | 17:28 |
| reisio | lostmymind: check with 'top' | 17:28 |
| reisio | a lot of inferior approaches to things can "work" | 17:28 |
| lostmymind | reisio is that the name of a program? | 17:28 |
| reisio | lostmymind: yes | 17:29 |
| daftykins | lostmymind: run it in a terminal (top) | 17:29 |
| thaumiel | reisio: well it's scanner/printer machine actually | 17:29 |
| lostmymind | just open a terminal and type "top"? | 17:30 |
| reisio | thaumiel: you did something like this? http://home.arcor.de/wittawat/pixma/ubuntu-howto.html | 17:31 |
| reisio | lostmymind: you could have answered that question yourself by now :) | 17:31 |
| wheresmypaaants | Okay | 17:32 |
| wheresmypaaants | It worked, had to do a reboot | 17:32 |
| wheresmypaaants | Now, | 17:32 |
| lostmymind | Im getting different readings....lxtask is showing different highest readings then top, but neither one them would equal up to 100%. Maybe 30% at the max. | 17:32 |
| wheresmypaaants | Can we figure out WHY this happened | 17:32 |
| lostmymind | mount.ntfs is taking 15-20% by itself. | 17:32 |
| anon95 | exit | 17:33 |
| DQSII | i found a .deb file for my equalizer online :D | 17:34 |
| bekks | lostmymind: Thats because of NTFS. Thank MS :) | 17:34 |
| junka | pressing super button does not make the key shortcuts to appeat | 17:34 |

| skinnymg1 | junka, hold it down | 17:35 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: sure | 17:35 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: not sure it'd be worth the effort, though | 17:35 |
| junka | skinnymg1, i do. only the numbers for the apps appear | 17:35 |
| lostmymind | but I still don't get whats causing 100% The other processes are mostly 0% or 1-5% and there aren't many. | 17:36 |
| wheresmypaaants | reisio: Then lets figure something else out. My terminal is constantly getting uninstalled. Is there a way to figure out why? | 17:36 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: which terminal? | 17:36 |
| wheresmypaaants | built in | 17:36 |
| wheresmypaaants | not the xterminal | 17:36 |
| wheresmypaaants | the Terminal | 17:36 |
| bekks | lostmymind: Then pastebin "top -n 1" please. | 17:36 |
| Pici | !enter | 17:36 |
| wheresmypaaants | the one with the pink background | 17:36 |
| wheresmypaaants | i dont like xterm or uxterm | 17:36 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: gnome-terminal? | 17:37 |
| thaumiel | reisio: no i didn't do that! i'll try that now but that's mp150 does it work with mg3500 also? | 17:37 |
| reisio | thaumiel: I'm pretty sure that's the driver you want, the instructions are old but they should serve as a pretty decent starting point | 17:38 |
| thaumiel | i'll go with that then | 17:38 |
| reisio | check on http://www.sane-project.org/sane-supported-devices.html | 17:38 |
| reisio | 's'where I got the link, IIRC | 17:38 |
| wheresmypaaants | reisio: Yeah, that | 17:39 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: what makes you think it gets uninstalled? | 17:39 |
| wheresmypaaants | it doesnt show up in the search? | 17:39 |
| wheresmypaaants | and it doesnt question me when i try to install it | 17:39 |
| lostmymind | bekks http://pastebin.com/i3wTmi79 | 17:39 |
| wheresmypaaants | wouldnt it say its already installed? | 17:39 |
| wheresmypaaants | if i did sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal | 17:40 |
| wheresmypaaants | and it was installed | 17:40 |
| davidrsmorris | wheresmypaaants, yes, it would say 0 of 0 packages updated. | 17:40 |
| bekks | lostmymind: And where do you see 100% cpu usage? | 17:40 |
| wheresmypaaants | well, thats not what i ever get | 17:40 |
| lostmymind | bekks in task manager | 17:40 |
| wheresmypaaants | it always does a full install | 17:40 |
| wheresmypaaants | now, since its currently installed, it said 0 out of 0 | 17:41 |
| reisio | wheresmypaaants: what doesn't show up in the search? | 17:41 |
| bekks | lostmymind: dont use that thing, it takes up to 30% for itself. | 17:41 |
| wheresmypaaants | gnome-terminal, or Terminal | 17:41 |

| wheresmypaaants | and when that happens | 17:41 |

| thaumiel | reisio: usb.c:31:28 then? | 17:55 |

| v0lksman | nvidia 331 driver in 14.04 how to? | 18:04 |
| v0lksman | is bumblebee still an issue? | 18:04 |
| thaumiel | holstein: this http://support-sg.canon-asia.com/contents/SG/EN/0100552102.html | 18:04 |
| bekks | v0lksman: Do you have an optimus chipset? | 18:05 |
| holstein | thaumiel: you should need to , as i said.. the kernel is modular and usually contains all that can be supported | 18:05 |
| v0lksman | bekks: not sure...GT220...how would i know? | 18:05 |
| shubhamjain | reisio, I am thinking mint. Would the whole filesystem be duplicated? | 18:05 |
| reisio | v0lksman: issue? | 18:05 |
| bekks | v0lksman: Thats not optimus. :) | 18:05 |
| thaumiel | holstein: well, the usb only scan sounds kinda what the situation is... | 18:05 |
| holstein | thaumiel: if they provide a package, they'll have to provide support.. could be that its not supporting the kernel in 14.04 | 18:05 |
| reisio | shubhamjain: mint is ubuntu | 18:05 |
| reisio | shubhamjain: it'd be a total waste of time to dual boot those two distros | 18:06 |
| reisio | shubhamjain: moreso even than dual booting any two OSes, which is already arguably quite a waste of time | 18:06 |
| thaumiel | holstein: what's the quickest way to see my system's version? | 18:06 |
| reisio | thaumiel: cat /etc/*release* /etc/*version* | 18:06 |
| Mikerhinos | any skype compatible app on ubuntu ? Installed Mint on my sons pc yesterday, and he says that windows was better because skype won't work when he tries to call friends...that s*x lol (tried running it in terminal, but when the app launches terminal goes on a brand new line so no error display possible... :s | 18:06 |
| reisio | or was it /etc/issue | 18:07 |
| reisio | Mikerhinos: skype | 18:07 |
| v0lksman | bekks: yeah it's old and clunky | 18:07 |
| v0lksman | hahaha | 18:07 |
| jobarte | hi guys | 18:07 |
| thaumiel | reisio: no such category XD | 18:07 |
| jobarte | ubuntu 14.04 dont support smbfs? | 18:07 |
| thaumiel | reisio: oh man this is getting annoying | 18:07 |
| reisio | Mikerhinos: launching gui apps from terminal is a little tricky sometimes | 18:07 |
| shubhamjain | reisio, Actually I have gone fan of cinnamon (replacing unity) but there are few quirks I am unable to solve. Tried hard but can't solve them. | 18:07 |
| reisio | Mikerhinos: try nohup skype > /dev/null & | 18:07 |
| holstein | thaumiel: i read nothing at http://support-sg.canon-asia.com/contents/SG/EN/0100552102.html that states it supports network scanning | 18:07 |
| kman | hi guys, I have done some space in my HD from Windows, now that space is 50 Giga and it is Non Allocated, it is Ok to install ubuntu or i need to format it? if yes I have to do it from Ubuntu cd live or Windows? windows disk management allow me to format it just to NTFS or exFAT. Let me know please | 18:07 |
| reisio | shubhamjain: that's irrelevant to dual booting | 18:07 |
| thaumiel | holstein: okay that's it then! thank you! no wonder it doesn't find the scanner then... | 18:08 |
| reisio | kman: installation includes formatting | 18:08 |
| holstein | thaumiel: they likely didnt promise you they would, at purchase time, support linux | 18:08 |
| thaumiel | holstein: this is solved then. now i need damn long usb cord! | 18:08 |
| reisio | kman: best done from Ubuntu environment | 18:08 |
| bekks | !nvidia | v0lksman | 18:08 |
| ubottu | v0lksman: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 18:08 |
| holstein | thaumiel: i specifically purchase with webscan in mind, so i can not only scan from linux, but any web browser.. phones, tablets.. etc | 18:09 |
| thaumiel | holstein: this was cheap ;) | 18:09 |
| reisio | webscan? | 18:09 |
| kman | reisio, so I just need to install xubuntu into that NON ALLOCATED space? | 18:09 |
| reisio | kman: sounds like a plan | 18:09 |
| shubhamjain | reisio, No I was explaining why I want to install Mint but installing everything again won't be worth the effort anyway. | 18:09 |
| reisio | shubhamjain: mint is ubuntu | 18:09 |
| reisio | there is nothing mint has that ubuntu has not | 18:09 |
| holstein | reisio: you can, with many network printer/scanners, navigate to the ip address, and scan from that utility into the system you are on | 18:09 |
| reisio | holstein: just save the file via a webui? | 18:10 |
| holstein | thaumiel: price is not the issue.. only official support. cannon paid folks to make sure that piece of hardware worked with some operating systems.. linux was not one of those | 18:10 |
| reisio | that doesn't seem particularly useful :) but whatever | 18:10 |
| holstein | reisio: correct | 18:10 |
| AshenPhoenix | hi | 18:11 |
| reisio | hi ashen | 18:11 |
| holstein | reisio: it allows network access to scan from linux, without driver support.. quite handy, relevant, and useful | 18:11 |
| shubhamjain | reisio, yup you are right. but I hate unity and replaced it with cinnamon. It works great but I can't get to solve some problems with it: http://askubuntu.com/questions/441576/firefox-shows-no-text-after-installing-cinnamon. | 18:11 |
| AshenPhoenix | I just did a dist update from 13.10 to 14.04, I had a 3proxy configuration set up that was working flawlessly (I have multiple ips assign to a single adapter and have 3proxy accept to connect out on the various ips) since the update it doesnt work | 18:12 |
| reisio | holstein: yeah but so does anything with ssh | 18:12 |
| holstein | shubhamjain: you have issues after installing cinnamon from the repos in 14.04? | 18:12 |
| holstein | reisio: document scanning, friend | 18:12 |
| holstein | reisio: scanning a document from a printer/scanner | 18:12 |
| reisio | yeah | 18:12 |
| kman | reisio, it will install grub2 as well if I am right, where it will be installed? will be all automaitic or I need to to other space to it? | 18:12 |
| reisio | you can send commands via ssh | 18:12 |
| thaumiel | holstein: oh that sucks. it is stupid how some manufacturers refuse to support linux when linux in whole is really popular... gotta choose my next brand more carefully then | 18:12 |
| reisio | no need to reimplement a security layer | 18:13 |
| kbotc1 | I'm attempting to set up a net boot installer image, and use a script to set a static IP on the VMs I'm creating. Ubuntu 14.04 is blowing away my changes to /etc/network/interfaces. Any ideas on how to tell it to start doing that? | 18:13 |
| holstein | reisio: thats irrelevant, and doenst get you a document scanned | 18:13 |
| thaumiel | holstein: and when i need to scan i can go to windows side... ugh the horror and slowness and not respondingness! | 18:13 |
| AshenPhoenix | Im goin gthrough the update log and the only things I can see that could have cuased the issues are: ifupdown, iproute2, iptables, iputils, ufw, tcpd | 18:13 |
| shubhamjain | holstein, No I added the cinnamon repos. It seemed to work fine for everyone. I can't get a hint to why this happens. | 18:13 |
| AshenPhoenix | Iv tried disabling ufw to test, thats not the problem | 18:13 |
| holstein | thaumiel: i have installed headless xp machines to address this issue for folks.. machines that do nothing but basically print/scan server | 18:13 |
| holstein | shubhamjain: you added cinnamon ppa's? | 18:14 |
| shubhamjain | holstein, yup. | 18:14 |
| holstein | shubhamjain: you'll need to ask the ppa maintainer for support | 18:14 |
| reisio | holstein: sure it is, and does :) | 18:14 |
| thaumiel | holstein: sounds like a plan... i got 3 xubuntu laptops. one with only xubuntu, one with win7 also and another with xp :) | 18:14 |
| reisio | but more to the point | 18:14 |
| holstein | reisio: ssh doesnt provide document scanning | 18:14 |
| reisio | how do you end up remotely scanning a document that just _happens_ to be in the scanner :p | 18:15 |
| reisio | holstein: it does if a remote system does | 18:15 |
| holstein | reisio: and, it doesnt.. | 18:15 |
| reisio | if it doesn't, then it doesn't via a webUI, either | 18:15 |
| holstein | reisio: hence ths support query | 18:15 |
| thaumiel | holstein: checking out pixma printing solutions for android... would be ok if i could scan to phone then it's easy share to dropbox or whatever :) | 18:15 |
| Mikerhinos | reisio: ok tried it myself on his pc, when i click on the call button nothing happens, and no error message in terminal :s forwarded the port on my router, still the same | 18:15 |
| holstein | reisio: linux is not scanning remotely on the network.. but, webscan (if available) requires no driver support | 18:15 |
| thaumiel | holstein: can you open a little about that webscan. i tried google without satisfying results... | 18:16 |
| holstein | reisio: the webgui is just a webpage, and reqires no drivers, or ssh.. | 18:16 |
| reisio | holstein: ssh requires no drivers | 18:16 |
| holstein | reisio: i didnt imply that it did, friend | 18:16 |
| AshenPhoenix | super frustrating :| | 18:16 |
| reisio | holstein: no I did | 18:16 |
| reisio | AshenPhoenix: ? | 18:17 |
| holstein | reisio: but, ssh-ing into the scanner doesnt get you a scanned document | 18:17 |
| v0lksman | any ideas how to exclude a window from window decorations with Unity? | 18:17 |
| holstein | reisio: sshing into a supported host machine could.. | 18:17 |
| AshenPhoenix | reisio: <AshenPhoenix> I just did a dist update from 13.10 to 14.04, I had a 3proxy configuration set up that was working flawlessly (I have multiple ips assign to a single adapter and have 3proxy accept to connect out on the various ips) since the update it doesnt work | 18:17 |
| leyla_ | nossa | 18:17 |
| reisio | holstein: what's the difference? | 18:17 |
| holstein | reisio: the webgui can let anything with a webrowser navigate to the ip address and scan.. sshing in does that.. just ssh in.. no document scanned | 18:18 |
| leodebordo33 | hello there ! i am from Bordeaux France any there here from ..to ? | 18:18 |
| reisio | AshenPhoenix: ah :/ | 18:18 |
| holstein | reisio: the difference is, sshed in, vs document scanning capability | 18:18 |
| reisio | leodebordo33: probably, big place | 18:18 |
| reisio | ssh can be used to run a command | 18:18 |
| reisio | I'm sure you know :p | 18:18 |
| holstein | reisio: sure. but *not* scanning from that printer | 18:18 |
| holstein | reisio: you cant ssh into that cannon printer and issue the scan command, and recieve a scan.. but, if there is webscan, you can connect to the webgui and get a scan | 18:19 |
| holstein | thaumiel: i just navigate to the ip address and see what options are available on the actual unit | 18:19 |
| bergelmir | is it possible to add a --geometry argument to a keyboard shortcut? i am using "Launch Terminal" from the keyboard shortcuts menu | 18:19 |
| holstein | thaumiel: i have seen many HP's with webcan, and a few other brands | 18:20 |
| thaumiel | holstein: problem solved. i can use scanner wireless with my lg g2 phone :) | 18:21 |
| holstein | thaumiel: cheers!. i think that is the ideal solution, when available | 18:21 |
| holstein | thaumiel: now, anything with a web browser can scan | 18:21 |
| leodebordo33 | cooll... the evening course is about ssh & printer ? | 18:21 |
| holstein | leodebordo33: no.. just web scan included on some network printer/scanners.. nothing to do with ssh | 18:22 |
| daftykins | !fr | leodebordo33 | 18:22 |
| ubottu | leodebordo33: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. | 18:22 |
| jhutchins | Strange. XFCE's default terminal is hanging after I exit an ssh session. Takes a minute or two to come back to the local prompt. | 18:22 |
| thaumiel | holstein: where computer ends smartphone starts! | 18:22 |
| leodebordo33 | many tanXX for the ad english is my father | 18:23 |
| reisio | holstein: sounds the same to me | 18:23 |
| reisio | except that ssh is properly secure | 18:23 |
| holstein | reisio: we can continue discussing this offtopic matter in the offtopic channel... otherwise, im sure we are just misunderstanding each other.. | 18:23 |
| reisio | I'm sure we are :p | 18:23 |
| holstein | reisio: you cant access that feature over SSH.. but you can with any web browser.. ssh is not needed | 18:23 |
| waller | hi all, how do I download and open programs ? Then I for example go here "http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer" to download flash I get a popup window asking for what app to use to open the file | 18:24 |
| holstein | !flash | 18:24 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 18:24 |
| kostkon | waller, use the software centre to install it | 18:25 |
| leodebordo33 | that mind is the device who scan is lan ? | 18:25 |
| reisio | holstein: sure you can | 18:25 |
| bekks | waller: you dont download and install stuff like in windows - ubuntu uses the software center, most likely. | 18:25 |
| holstein | reisio: its like accessing a router admin page, friend.. you dont need ssh | 18:25 |
| starrats | waller just use sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 18:25 |
| holstein | reisio: you access the page from the printer/scanner in *any* web browser, and scan a document | 18:26 |
| reisio | holstein: and ssh doesn't need a web page | 18:26 |
| quem | ubottu: what | 18:26 |
| ubottu | I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:26 |
| holstein | reisio: the printer doesnt have ssh.. but it does have web server | 18:26 |
| holstein | reisio: ssh is not needed, or supported | 18:26 |
| fizbin | Is there a channel for discussing upstart, and how to write upstart scripts? | 18:27 |
| reisio | ssh is better :) | 18:27 |
| reisio | fizbin: /msg alis list *upstart* | 18:27 |
| leodebordo33 | smb | 18:27 |
| holstein | reisio: its quality is irrelevant.. im only continuing this for clarity.. | 18:27 |
| reisio | holstein: nah | 18:27 |
| quem | i'm disappointed by ubuntu gnome 14.04. :( | 18:28 |
| holstein | reisio: please join in the offtopic channel for further discussion.. the device *does* *not* support ssh | 18:28 |
| reisio | quem: so don't use it | 18:28 |
| quem | does xubuntu have any social integration? | 18:28 |
| quem | reisio: i don't, i installed it for my wife. | 18:28 |
| reisio | holstein: I'm not interested in off topic discussion | 18:28 |
| reisio | quem: :) | 18:28 |
| bergelmir | if i am launching a new terminal window, the window is behind my top bar. i can add a --geometry argument to my quick launch icon, but how to add the --geometry argument to a keyboard shortcut? | 18:28 |
| quem | reisio: tried to spruce up her laptop a bit.. lubuntu is not exactly eye candy. :) | 18:29 |
| reisio | bergelmir: what's stopping you from adding it? | 18:29 |
| bergelmir | reisio: where? i am using the "Launch Terminal" shortcut from the keyboard shortcuts menu | 18:29 |
| reisio | bergelmir: you know how to change a keyboard shortcut? | 18:29 |
| waller | hm,, In the software center it say flash is already installed but "http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html" I get ", your computer does not have the latest Flash Player installed" | 18:29 |
| thaumiel | holstein: well, i am off. thank you for your insight! | 18:30 |
| xangua | waller: chromium? | 18:30 |
| leodebordo33 | preferences>keybord | 18:30 |
| bergelmir | reisio: in this case: no. i can only define a shortcut, not the command what will be executed | 18:30 |
| reisio | waller: did you install flash only through the software center, or did you try from something you downloaded from adobe.com? | 18:30 |
| waller | xangua, I run firefox | 18:30 |
| reisio | bergelmir: ah | 18:30 |
| reisio | bergelmir: does it at least tell you the command? | 18:30 |
| holstein | waller: please make sure the package is installed, then restart firefox, and try https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ | 18:30 |
| xangua | waller: did you restart firefox then¿ | 18:30 |
| thaumiel | reisio: thank you too! i gotta go now do something else :) | 18:30 |
| bekks | waller: Adobe Flash for Linux is at version 11.2, which isnt the latest available. | 18:30 |
| reisio | thaumiel: adios | 18:30 |
| bergelmir | keyboard > shortcuts > launchers > launch terminal | 18:31 |
| bergelmir | i can only specify the shortcut, not the command | 18:31 |
| reisio | bergelmir: mm, this is for gnome-terminal? | 18:31 |

| speaker1234 | need some help with vsftpd. I need to chroot users in individual directories and prevent them from seeing anything above their home directory | 18:32 |
| speaker1234 | aparently the writable local chroot option did not make it into 12.04 | 18:32 |
| reisio | bergelmir: just run 'gnome-terminal' and see if that's the terminal you're talking about | 18:32 |
| bergelmir | reisio: yep, it is | 18:32 |
| bekks | speaker1234: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/vsftpd | 18:33 |
| leodebordo33 | reisio > what about upgrading to the next ? | 18:33 |
| reisio | bergelmir: k, the first thing I'd do is run this: find ~/ -iname '*.desktop' | grep -i term | 18:33 |
| speaker1234 | is my only options installing a .deb from a "reputable" site or building vsftpd from scratch | 18:33 |
| reisio | bergelmir: and see if any of those files can be edited to get what you want | 18:33 |
| VlperX | ahoy, I'm having issues connecting to my vpn using ubuntu - http://paste.ubuntu.com/7331711/ | 18:33 |
| bekks | speaker1234: Your first option is to read the link given. | 18:33 |
| reisio | bergelmir: if that doesn't work, a quick hack would probably be putting whatever you want into a file named 'gnome-terminal' in /usr/local/bin/ | 18:33 |
| bekks | speaker1234: for user chroots, you do not need a writable chroot base dir. | 18:33 |
| JoelDaMole | If my Windows BSoDs were a hardware problem, should I expect an equivalent on Ubuntu? | 18:34 |
| waller | I actually don't know what version of flash I have installed, can I run something like "flash -v" ? | 18:34 |
| reisio | speaker1234: just use ssh, it's more secure and more easily configured | 18:34 |
| lvleph | I try printing a PS to PDF using 'lpr -P PDF <PS File>' but nothing seems to be created in ~/PDF. I have installed cups-pdf and can see the pdf printer in print settings. | 18:34 |
| reisio | JoelDaMole: I would not | 18:34 |
| bergelmir | reisio: found a file named "gnome-terminal.desktop" | 18:34 |
| reisio | JoelDaMole: BSOD is also usually a software problem, IMO | 18:34 |
| STPI | hello | 18:34 |
| reisio | bergelmir: try adding your --geometry stuff to the command in that file | 18:34 |
| reisio | bergelmir: it's just a text file | 18:34 |
| leodebordo33 | hello U .about html5 | 18:34 |
| bekks | JoelDaMole: BSOD are software failure indicators. | 18:35 |
| reisio | leodebordo33: hrmm? | 18:35 |
| reisio | STPI: 'lo | 18:35 |
| JoelDaMole | reisio, I've kept swapping out versions of windows and loads of components, I got it down to CPU and mobo but I can't really swap those out | 18:35 |
| reisio | lvleph: what for? | 18:35 |
| JoelDaMole | Surely BSoDs can sometimes be caused by dodgy hardware | 18:35 |
| bergelmir | reisio: added --geometry [...] to both "Exec=..." lines but it doesn't work | 18:35 |
| STPI | is there any way to customize gnome desktop rather than "Tweak Tool"? Like for disabling thumbnail for every icon on the desktop etc.? | 18:35 |
| bergelmir | reisio: ah mom, there is another Exec | 18:35 |
| speaker1234 | bekks: I get "vsftpd: refusing to run with writable root inside chroot() | 18:35 |

| bekks | speaker1234: Then please read the link given. | 18:36 |
| reisio | STPI: sounds like you want nautilus' prefs, though | 18:36 |
| leodebordo33 | lvleph > about perl | 18:36 |
| STPI | yes reisio | 18:36 |
| reisio | lvleph: more like a book in what way? | 18:36 |
| JoelDaMole | Sod it then, I'm staying Ubuntu | 18:36 |
| STPI | its more nautilus pref I guess | 18:36 |
| waller | holstein, sorry, yes I open " https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/" and it say I have version "11.2.20.350" installed | 18:36 |
| bergelmir | reisio: nope, adding it to TryExec=... isn't working | 18:36 |
| reisio | waller: is that a problem? | 18:36 |
| holstein | waller: cheers. enjoy | 18:36 |

| bekks | speaker1234: And this is the first result on how to fix it: http://askubuntu.com/questions/239239/ubuntu-12-04-500-oops-vsftpd-refusing-to-run-with-writable-root-inside-chroot | 18:37 |
| leodebordo33 | mem blem ;( | 18:37 |
| lvleph | leodebordo33, what are you suggesting about perl? | 18:37 |
| reisio | lvleph: mmm, I'd configure the viewer to do that, rather than altering the PDF file itself | 18:37 |
| reisio | lvleph: but if I _were_ to alter the PDF file, I believe the pdfjam package can give you an arbitrary "n-up" layout | 18:37 |
| waller | reisio, no, I guess I have the latest version | 18:37 |
| lvleph | I want to print it that way reisio and afaik no viewer in Linux can do this. | 18:38 |
| STPI | reisio: do you know what nautilus editor I should install? | 18:38 |
| holstein | waller: you have the latest available to linux | 18:38 |
| reisio | waller: ah, cool | 18:38 |
| reisio | STPI: Nautilus has a menu at its top with prefs, IIRC | 18:38 |
| JoelDaMole | reisio, I have no idea how to find out, I havent used ubuntu much before | 18:38 |
| reisio | JoelDaMole: k | 18:38 |
| reisio | JoelDaMole: see if it happens twice, then? :) | 18:38 |
| reisio | lvleph: mmm, well I know evince does two pages at a time if you want it to, but if you want to print it, sure, just use pdfjam | 18:39 |
| gazarsgo | how do i fix a hash sum mismatch with an apt mirror ? i'm having trouble with us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com trying to grab trusty packages | 18:39 |

| leyla_ | olá? | 18:39 |
| lvleph | reisio, two pages at a time doesn't give the right page ordering. | 18:39 |
| reisio | gazarsgo: try another mirror | 18:39 |

| Guest19236 | I'm using Preseed with 14.04 LTS. I am using d-i preseed/late_command string in-target to pull a network configure script. For some reason in 14.04 the /etc/network/interface keeps being overwritten. Can anyone assist? | 19:00 |
| Guest19236 | Only gets overwritten on first boot. | 19:01 |
| leodebordo33 | guest this is about dhcp | 19:01 |
| leodebordo33 | no matter, is normal way | 19:02 |
| Guest19236 | Bergelmir, the network script is removing the isc-dhcp-client resolvconf with late_command | 19:03 |
| Guest19236 | Still overrides | 19:03 |
| leodebordo33 | yes | 19:03 |
| Guest19236 | How should I resolve this? | 19:03 |
| leodebordo33 | just tap the ip adress | 19:04 |
| leodebordo33 | the right | 19:04 |

| leodebordo33 | that a net install u wanth too have | 19:05 |
| jhutchins | Guest19236: Are you trying to say your resolv.conf gets overwritten, or something else from the interfaces file? | 19:05 |
| [twisti] | does anyone know where i could get that version of that library ? maybe someone has the old version of it somewhere ? | 19:07 |
| Guest19236 | jhutchins, The /etc/network/interface file gets overwritten. Basically, the script that get's called is echoing the configuration to interfaces. On first boot only the interfaces file basically get's set to default with dhcp. Even though I purged the dhcp client before first install. | 19:07 |
| jhutchins | Guest19236: Perhaps you have another dhcp client installed, there are several. WHat does dpkg | grep dhcp show? | 19:08 |
| jhutchins | Guest19236: Sorry, I meant dpkg -l | grep dhcp | 19:09 |
| leodebordo33 | or is about chroot | 19:09 |

| thinknow | my purpose is so i dont have to change the nameservers automatically each time the network cable fall out or my computer goes offline or so | 20:16 |
| thinknow | since then the vpn doesnt work | 20:16 |

| thinknow | a config file | 20:30 |

| onizo | sorry, I wasn't trying to be funny. I was being serious | 20:32 |
| onizo | I think it's possible. but for some reason my scripts aren't running. maybe there is a global .bash_profile that is being used. | 20:32 |
| thinknow | could just make a script and make it do it when the computer gets notified about a new lan connection | 20:32 |

| torbock | Acid_wales_uk: minimal installer doesn't include packages, just a lightweight installer... it will still download and install ubuntu-standard | 20:45 |
| Acid_wales_uk | but then your precented with package manager to install what you like. | 20:46 |

| SharkMa-san | who wants to have useless desktop "crap" on their server? | 20:54 |
| Jordan_U | torbock: There should be an option for "command line install" or similar in d-i. | 20:54 |
| SharkMa-san | I know having a gui is nice, but it really doesn't help in this case | 20:55 |

| === Stu| is now known as Stu|[A] | ||
| Psil0Cybin | i have tried googling :P i am not just bothering you guys for no reason aha | 20:58 |

| Psil0Cybin | same thing with md5sum -c owncloud-6.0.2.tar.bz2.md5 | 21:02 |

| OSaddict | I'm starting to develop a javascript multiplayer game based on node.js. Anyone know a way to quickly set up a home web server for testing the game? Can I use Ubuntu server in VirtualBox for this purpose? | 21:05 |
| SharkMa-san | I have completely forgotten about the issue I've been having... I have two monitors connected to a docking station at work and getting both monitors working isn't a problem, the problem is that Ubuntu doesn't recognise them as separate monitors. I can set a resolution that is double the width of one of the monitors and have a single virtual monitor that spans on both monitors | 21:05 |
| SharkMa-san | so is there a way to get the monitors to be recognised as separate monitors? | 21:06 |
| === Stu|[A] is now known as Stu| | ||
| Squarepy | SharkMa-san, define separate? | 21:06 |
| SharkMa-san | Squarepy: that's a good question... let me put is this way, if I maximise a window, I want it to be maximised on one monitor and not on both | 21:07 |
| Squarepy | SharkMa-san, so do you see two displays in the display manager? | 21:08 |
| munzmania | OSaddict : yes , i used to use that approach in web development but with lamp server , i think with node.js it would be pretty much the same | 21:08 |
| incognito | OSaddict yes of course you can. Just install virtualbox and run an ubuntu server appliance. Then install nodejs. you should be able to run your game in an express server. | 21:08 |

| [diecast] | trism yes | 21:12 |
| bekks | Acid_wales_uk: Ask your actual question please. | 21:12 |
| trism | [diecast]: remove the user, that's probably where the postinst is failing, though usually it gives a better error message | 21:12 |

| bekks | OSaddict: Sure. | 21:12 |

| dipseydoodle | actually | 22:26 |
| dipseydoodle | That isn't a bad idea. Hmm | 22:26 |

| OSaddict | If I'm setting up a static IP address, what should I put for the DNS servers and my IP address. Can just anything work? | 22:26 |
| dipseydoodle | I could throw old linux on it but that wouldn't give me what I need | 22:27 |

| bekks | OSaddict: You should use a DNS server valid for your network. And you should use a valid IP address for your network. | 22:27 |
| reisio | dipseydoodle: I'm sure you can find an image that supports it out of the box | 22:27 |
| OSaddict | bekks: How do I find that out? | 22:27 |
| dipseydoodle | Well see | 22:27 |

| bekks | OSaddict: How do you connect to the internet - using a router? | 22:28 |
| skirlet | reisio: Thanks! so, in a new tab, run that command? and then in the grub message choose: install the package maintainer's version? Thanks dude! | 22:30 |
| OSaddict | Well, I'm running an Ubuntu server in Virtualbox which is connected to the host via NAT. The host is running on a laptop which connects through my Wi-Fi router. | 22:30 |
| bekks | OSaddict: And where do you try to setup a static IP? | 22:30 |
| reisio | skirlet: yeah | 22:31 |
| reisio | skirlet: chances are you won't need the backup whatsoever, but it's good practice | 22:31 |
| reisio | it might even make its own backup for you, but it's also good practice not to assume such things :p | 22:31 |
| skirlet | reisio: Thanks sooooooooo much!!!! | 22:31 |
| OSaddict | In the guest OS (Ubuntu server). I believe the /etc/network/interfaces is the file that controls that. | 22:31 |
| bekks | OSaddict: Did you read chapter 6 of the vbox manual yet? | 22:32 |
| reisio | bekks: course, didn't we all | 22:33 |
| reisio | I sleep with it under my pillow :) | 22:33 |
| bekks | reisio: I can memorize it :P | 22:33 |

| kolya | медведи тут? | 22:35 |
| Jordan_U | skirlet: reisio: In this case it's /etc/default/grub that we need to back up. So "sudo cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub-bak", then choose to install the package maintainer's version of /etc/default/grub. | 22:35 |

| OSaddict | bekks: I've got an IPv4 router, so it looks like it should work. If I'm understanding this correctly, with bridged networking, the guest and host will share the same IP address? | 22:40 |
| bekks | OSaddict: No, thats totally wrong. | 22:40 |
| skirlet | Jordan_U: reisio: well, i just did "cp -r /boot/grub ~/grub.backup.01" in a seperate tab in the terminal and then chose the "install the package maintainer's version" and the installation continued. Hope that's all good. This stuff is really over my head still | 22:40 |
| bekks | OSaddict: Using bridged, your vm behaves like a physical computer in your network - do not use duplicated IP addresses. | 22:40 |

| Maltahl | Hey! im having some trouble with 14.04 Ubuntu Server. after rebooting i get stuck on a black screen. this happens after grub says: "starting up..." | 22:42 |
| OSaddict | bekks: So it's as if the host and guest were two separate computers? Networking is one area that I know little about. I just need to know how to set up my IP addresses for my guest to behave as a normal web server. | 22:44 |
| reisio | Maltahl: ask ubottu about 'nomodeset' | 22:44 |
| Maltahl | how do i add that to grub ? | 22:44 |
| reisio | Maltahl: as a test you can hold SHIFT during boot up, then press 'e' I think to edit the menu as a one-off | 22:45 |
| Maltahl | Thanks reisio! i can get in via recovery but i really just want this server to be able to boot without me being present | 22:45 |
| bekks | OSaddict: Yes, thats correct. I suggest not changing the networking mode, and leaving it at NAT, since the DHCP address your vm will get will stay the same all the time. Thats sufficient. | 22:46 |
| reisio | Maltahl: servers don't usually need graphics :) | 22:47 |
| Maltahl | reisio: i know :) im running it with terminal only :) | 22:47 |
| jasabella | does ubuntu not like having two network cards on the same computer connected to the same router? | 22:48 |
| Maltahl | reisio: its because i a few scripts to run when it boots, for instance connect to vpn, ping duckdns so it updates with the vpn ip, mount network usb harddrive. so all i need for it to do now is to boot :P | 22:48 |

| skirlet | reisio: coool, will do! | 22:53 |
| reisio | Maltahl: the 'nomodeset' bit in grub's config should do it | 22:53 |
| bekks | OSaddict: As I already said: according to the vbox manual chapter 6 and the description of NAT you can just use DHCP because the lease will not change. | 22:53 |
| reisio | some people use 'obsolete' when they mean "I prefer something else", but that is incorrect :p | 22:54 |

| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell, I don't know about anyone else but I had problems recently with 12.04........ and I think it depends, in part, on your hardware :-) | 23:36 |
| Maltahl | reisio: It shows something about clocksource and then it goes to either blackscreen or tells that the cpu is stuck/stalled | 23:36 |
| reisio | Maltahl: clock skew? | 23:36 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell, theoretically yes, they are supposed to be "better" | 23:36 |
| leodebordo33 | yes the cpu | 23:36 |
| LukeMaxwell | This desktop is shit | 23:36 |
| LukeMaxwell | It's a dell Optiplex GX260 | 23:36 |
| leodebordo33 | go to red hat | 23:36 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell, there is a no foul language policy | 23:36 |
| Maltahl | reisio: after blackscreen it shutdown | 23:37 |
| Exsquire | Anyone know a good #software channel? | 23:37 |
| gmachine_24 | for the chat room | 23:37 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: my b | 23:37 |
| leodebordo33 | :) | 23:37 |
| Exsquire | Hello? | 23:37 |
| gmachine_24 | it's ok; I think we've all done it at one point or another | 23:37 |
| Doc_Fowling | Hey. I'm trying to stream an audio source like Pandora to my vent server using Mangler (vent client). On my Mac, I use Soundflower to make a virtual Jack. Any program ike this on Ubuntu? Can't find any :/ | 23:37 |
| gmachine_24 | Exsquire, we don't do warez | 23:37 |
| Exsquire | I asked for a #software channel fucktard. | 23:37 |
| Maltahl | reisio: nomodeset is not in effect since i was stupid and forgot to do: sudo update-grub | 23:37 |
| Exsquire | Where the fuck did you see me say warez? | 23:38 |
| gmachine_24 | Exsquire, congrats on your vocabulary | 23:38 |
| xangua | !language | Exsquire | 23:38 |
| ubottu | Exsquire: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 23:38 |
| LukeMaxwell | leodebordo33: are you saying to switch to the red hat distro? I want to use ubuntu or zorin because my partner isn't used to linux | 23:38 |
| pwy3 | I'm interested in preserving my running windows. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 with full disk encryption. I'm considering looking into adding hibernation, or some tool that will work with the window manager to remember my applications and window locations. Has anyone done this ? | 23:38 |
| Exsquire | Congrats on your psychic powers how much you making with it? | 23:38 |
| willwh | Exsquire: please temper your speech | 23:38 |
| willwh | there is no need to be inflamitory | 23:38 |
| Exsquire | Please fuck off and die alright? | 23:38 |
| leodebordo33 | that is clear | 23:38 |
| reisio | :) | 23:38 |
| Exsquire | I am not talking to you. | 23:38 |
| gmachine_24 | bybye | 23:39 |
| reisio | pwy3: sure, but | 23:39 |
| Maltahl | reisio: it get stuck at: buffer i/o error on device sda logical block 0 | 23:39 |
| reisio | pwy3: presumably you mean full OS encryption :) since you'll have two OSes | 23:39 |
| leodebordo33 | retry | 23:39 |
| reisio | pwy3: you probably need only make partition space for Ubuntu, install Ubuntu and choose the encryption options you want, done | 23:40 |
| reisio | Maltahl: mmm, i/o errors are bad | 23:40 |
| LukeMaxwell | I ran dmesg leodebordo33 | 23:40 |
| leodebordo33 | and ? | 23:40 |
| LukeMaxwell | Last output was associated but wifi still won't work | 23:40 |
| Maltahl | reisio: how bad ? cause it could only boot before using usb | 23:40 |
| gmachine_24 | pwy3, are you saying you want to remember all the software you've installed...... because I believe there are simple commands for that.......... | 23:40 |
| reisio | Maltahl: in that case potentially no bad-der, but still bad | 23:41 |
| DarkAceXtreme | does anyone have any linux program recommendations for editing media tags/metadata? specifically MP3 and OGG files' | 23:41 |
| pwy3 | resio, yes, I did that in order to encrypt the OS volume. My challenge now is getting Unity to restore my applications. I'm looking for a way to - manually with a config file, or automatically - get my apps to spawn where I leave them | 23:41 |
| gmachine_24 | DarkAceXtreme, there is easytag | 23:41 |
| leodebordo33 | pffffffffffffffffffffff | 23:42 |
| gmachine_24 | DarkAceXtreme, I'm not sure exactly what you want to do | 23:42 |
| leodebordo33 | are u Cm | 23:42 |
| DarkAceXtreme | installed easytag | 23:42 |
| gmachine_24 | DarkAceXtreme: didn't like it? | 23:42 |
| reisio | pwy3: manually is easy, but not dynamic :) | 23:42 |
| Maltahl | reisio: now i insert the usb i used to install ubuntu server with... and now it just boots no problem! | 23:42 |
| DarkAceXtreme | I mean I installed it just now, going to try it now | 23:42 |
| pwy3 | reisio, I suspect that ;( ... what's the best way to do this manually ? | 23:43 |
| gmachine_24 | DarkAceXtreme: ah, ok. There are CLI programs to change metadata but i think the problem is if you're only doing a few at a time it takes forever | 23:43 |
| reisio | pwy3: I wouldn't :) try this: dconf write /org/gnome/gnome-session/auto-save-session true | 23:43 |
| Maltahl | reisio: in other words its like grub went on the usb instead of my hdd :((((( | 23:44 |
| DarkAceXtreme | easytag seems like it's what I was looking for at a quick glance, thanks | 23:44 |
| dw1 | so ive got a server with root partition on software raid. after a kernel upgrade, do I need to do anything manually with grub? | 23:44 |
| pwy3 | reisio: LOL, thanks. I'll check that out | 23:44 |
| reisio | 'exfalso' from quodlibet is a nice GUI audio metadata editor | 23:44 |
| gmachine_24 | DarkAceXtreme: always good to keep in mind programs such as easytag are merely nice guis on linux cli programs....... | 23:44 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: No. | 23:45 |
| reisio | usually* | 23:45 |
| DarkAceXtreme | yeah, I figured as much | 23:45 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: im still scared. there are some horror stories around the net. but thats reassuring | 23:45 |
| leodebordo33 | rhytmbox | 23:45 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: are you still here? | 23:45 |
| leodebordo33 | h | 23:45 |
| gmachine_24 | leodebordo33: that would be rhythmbox but wehat the heck | 23:45 |
| gmachine_24 | horror stores around the net? do tell . . . | 23:46 |
| LukeMaxwell | yes gmachine_24 | 23:46 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: That said, as Ubuntu's installer doesn't handle configuring grub-pc well for RAID, please pastebin the output of "debconf-show grub-pc". Configuring grub-pc properly comes into play when grub get upgraded (rather than just your kernels), but it's good to prepare for the future. | 23:46 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: so I came in late on your problem, are you running Ubuntu from a live CD? | 23:46 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: on the machine you want to get the network going? | 23:47 |
| gmachine_24 | *on the machine on which you want to get the network going? | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: Basically, we want to make sure that grub-pc is configured to install grub's boot sector to the MBR of any of the drives your BIOS might decide to boot from (meaning at least the two drives that are hosting the RAID array). | 23:47 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: that command has no output :/ | 23:47 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: Last night I had 10.04.3 installed and today I updated via the software updater to 12.04 LTS | 23:47 |
| leodebordo33 | yes as i am Jesus Christ ;) | 23:47 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell . . . and your network won't connect | 23:47 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: However, now my alfa awus036h card won't work | 23:47 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: yes | 23:48 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: it just says establishing connection and then nothing | 23:48 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell, so you are connected how running what os? | 23:48 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: on a diff computer? | 23:48 |
| guest-DGHblp | i fucking hate this i wish i bought windows 7' | 23:48 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: I am on my windows 7 laptop. SLowly but surely trying to download ubuntu 14.04 | 23:49 |
| gmachine_24 | so do we | 23:49 |
| guest-DGHblp | well its not that bad but | 23:49 |
| leodebordo33 | http://askubuntu.com/questions/178009/how-do-i-install-drivers-for-the-alfa-awus036h-usb-wireless-adapter | 23:49 |
| guest-DGHblp | just i like it alot better | 23:49 |
| leodebordo33 | ! | 23:49 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: Is this a BIOS based or UEFI based machine? That not giving any output means that grub-pc is not installed, which is fine if this is a UEFI based machine. | 23:49 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: debconf-show grub says: * grub/update_grub_changeprompt_threeway: install_new | 23:49 |
| guest-DGHblp | and not only that but now i can even go on my normal account | 23:49 |
| LukeMaxwell | leodebordo33: I tried that but when running the make install command I kept running into issues | 23:50 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: umm.. ls /boot shows some bins for memtest and stuff | 23:50 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: OK, at some point you removed grub2 and installed grub legacy. | 23:50 |
| gmachine_24 | guest-DGHblp: you're not making sense | 23:50 |
| LukeMaxwell | leodebordo33: I also tried making and installing the driver via the cd included in the box. no luck | 23:50 |
| kupo_ | oh man. i went through that grub legacy stuff | 23:50 |
| joep | I'm using powerline and tmux and my shell within tmux looks different than it looks regularly. WHY? | 23:50 |
| kupo_ | the grub program helped but i ended up just formatting and reinstalling heh | 23:50 |
| guest-DGHblp | do any of you know how to make some thing on xfce turn exutable | 23:51 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: its a brand new 14.04 LTS server, but after install i did apt-get update and upgrade and yeah it prompted me twice about grub/kernel and the first prompt i said 'keep current config' and second prompt i said 'use package version' | 23:51 |
| joep | guest-DGHblp, in console or in xfce? | 23:51 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell, this is what I do in situations such as you are in; try a newer version of ubuntu (which is what you're doing); if that doesn't work, I try a live version of either linuxmint or just straight debian as i seem to have fewer glitches with those | 23:51 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: Please pastebin the output of "dpkg -l | grep grub". | 23:52 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: and whatever works, I use that | 23:52 |
| kupo_ | just make sure you behind ethernet if you try debian. | 23:52 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: That makes sense. Thanks. I was hoping to stick with ubuntu because my partner will be using the desktop as his personal computer. | 23:52 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: think youre onto something http://pastebin.com/f3mJ4zTF | 23:53 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: I kind of think you'll have luck with 14.xx.......... 12.04 seems to have become a pita, as I mentioned before | 23:53 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: i have rebooted the server and it came back up which is good :) | 23:53 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: I also liked how the zorin distro looked. They keep linux looking very close to windows so it should be easier for him to understand and grasp. | 23:54 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: At some point you or someone/something else ran "sudo apt-get install grub", which is wrong. | 23:54 |
| LukeMaxwell | gmachine_24: but zorin distro download is very Gbs and my connection would take too long to get it up and running. | 23:54 |
| leodebordo33 | right | 23:54 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: yeah, for most people all the techno mumbo-jumbo is just that...... they don't care they just want something that works | 23:54 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: i might have. not in .bash_history but maybe I cleared it ..... | 23:54 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: yeah i think i did after that confusing upgrade prompt stuff | 23:55 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: Is this a BIOS based or UEFI based machine? | 23:55 |
| leodebordo33 | wipe it | 23:56 |
| dw1 | Jordan_U: any way to check when booted up and logged in? this is /boot http://pastebin.com/S0v1uCtQ | 23:57 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: I am not familiar with Zorin but maybe you can just install their desktop | 23:57 |
| LukeMaxwell | what do you mean gmachine_24? | 23:57 |
| pression | hello ppl! A noob consquestion, what is the most complete language for 2014, I doubt between perl or ruby | 23:57 |
| LukeMaxwell | The file that is 2. something gigs is the one that is their desktop client | 23:57 |
| pression | or is other? | 23:57 |
| leodebordo33 | python | 23:57 |
| Jordan_U | dw1: You had grub-pc installed before, so let's install it again. "sudo apt-get install grub-pc". | 23:58 |
| leodebordo33 | on rail | 23:58 |
| leodebordo33 | startx | 23:59 |
| gmachine_24 | LukeMaxwell: Zion runs atop Ubuntu; which means there might be a package or software which you can add to an ubuntu distibution to give it the zorin desktop - ie the look and feel of windows which you desire | 23:59 |
| LukeMaxwell | that makes sense now gmachine_24. Thanks. I'll take a look and find out. | 23:59 |
| leodebordo33 | zorin is app repo | 23:59 |
