owhrookie211: That is likely to depend entirely on the hardware you're using and the workload you're attempting to push through. An under spec. machine will always lack performance. Most modern hardware spends most of its life idling.06:23

owhknight`: Look at the /etc/skel comment.06:52
knight`owh: i have just checked that. funny thing is that the guest account doesn't have this problem at all06:53
nf7owh: Cool. I find that Windows 8.1 runs a lot better inside a virtual machine with OSX as the host. Ubuntu was really slow for me when I tried it in a VM.06:53
owhknight`: That's a sure sign you borked something in the account ;-)06:53
PolishPickerWiredSlash i just cannot stand the interface plus i cannot tweak my hardware the way i want to06:53
owhnf7: You need to turn on the Direct X stuff on the VM and you need to install the guest tools. I tend to use the open source ones, rather than the complex stuff supplied by VMware.06:54

joepack411where can i find out how to configure an ubuntu server to allow remote access from other computers with out need of ethernet and through ssh?07:28
owhjoepack411: Without the need of ethernet? Is this going to be a telepathic connection?07:29
exportedjoepack411: you mean over WAN?07:29
joepack411owh: no we want to get remote access through wifi but connect through ssh with username and passwords. we have users set up and passwords we just need to gain access via wifi.07:30
exportedjoepack411: if you want a password less login you could generate pub/private keys and not have passwds on the keys. that is up to you though.07:30
owhjoepack411: If the server is online via wifi, then install openssh-server and it will respond to ssh connection requests.07:31
joepack411owh: is using openssh the best in regards to security cause that's pretty important for us?07:32
=== CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away
wheatthinjoepack411, openssh-server comes with lots of encryption algorithms.. if you need to further protect your access, limit which ip/mac address's can actually connect to the server.07:33
exportedjoepack411: openssh is as secure as you make it. but that is with anything you use. a service on a server is never 100 percent secure but the way you run it and secure it will affect that.07:34
wheatthinit's called obscurity I believe.. the more lines of protection you have, the better :)07:35
wheatthinjust as long as the intended people can access the intended services07:36
joepack411wheatthin & exported: okay that makes sense. We're in the process of setting up the firewall so this will help. Yeah with the higher security the lower ease of use but we're all decently tech savy so ease of use isn't a big deal, we just arent all ubuntu pro's. Would a general search for configuring an openssh give me good tips for configuring it?07:37
exportedyeah since using linux i've gotten the " Security through obscurity is not security " line in many different styles. it's best to just do you best.07:37
exportedjoepack411: tbh after generating the pub and priv keys it's much easier07:37
joepack411exported: From talking with my friend who set up server he said that he has the pub and private keys up so it shouldn't be too much work to get the remote access.07:38

joepack411exported: well it's running on a seperate network and we have people going seperate ways for a little while and we want to allow them to have access whereever they are, all they need to is plug in the ip address their username and password and they'll have access after that. Is that possible?07:42
exportedjoepack411: yes just set the gateway/router to forward packets to your server.07:43
exportedto the correct port obviously.07:43
joepack411exported: so once we set the gateway to forward the packets and they send it to the right port they'll have access to drop info into the server?07:44
exportedjoepack411: precisely. they will enter the external ip address and then the router will tell their client to go to the server's lan ip and port.07:45
exportedexternal ip and port*07:45
exportedthe server will welcome them with open arms assuming the firewall is okay with it and they will be able to use sftp and the like.07:46
joepack411exported: okay awesome. how complicated is the process of setting up the gateway's? My friends are working on the firewall so i just need to get the remote access up asap?07:47
exportedjoepack411: it should be fairly easy. it is just dependent on their knowledge of networking and their understanding of routers. i think there is a site that can tell for specific models07:48
=== xubuntu is now known as Guest40847

ring3my fglrx driver is setting 1920x1080 (Full HD)  but i need 2560x1440 (WQHD) any clue?08:09
DaleusTinCan_Assassin, Probably fine then, might be worth having a search online to see if the software exists in the version you are upgrading to (most likely it does).08:09
ring3d1323: what is font smoothing??08:09
ring3d1323: tweak-tool08:09
Daleusring3, subpixel hitting, probably.08:10
rvdvTinCan_Assassin: apt-cache search keepassX says it's in 14.04 too08:10
ring3Daleus: yes yes, I have to click under the buttons to click them08:10
ring3Daleus: how to fix this?08:10
d1323ring3, it goes by different names.. it blurs the font pixels to make them appear less sharp, for whatever reason.. and it is on by default08:11
Daleusring3, that probably isn't the problem - not sure how to disable it in Ubuntu as I run Xubuntu and it has a little bit of a different interface.08:11
ring3d1323: I use gnome3, but after the upgrade my resolution was lower and the butons are dificult to click08:12
Daleusring3, have you tried changing your resolution manaully?08:13
d1323i am using unity DE. is gnome-tweak-tool what i want for this?08:13
ring3xrandr doesnt show higher resolution08:13
Daleusring3, could be a driver compatability issue - on your previous install (i.e before upgrade) had you installed any custom drivers for your video? i.e AMD or Nvidia?08:14

MaxFramesit's not bad luck really, what I did was just grab the lubuntu 14.04 iso and install it09:42
MaxFramesI chose Italian whenever asked during the install. I did nothing "strange"09:42
MaxFramesI should just get an Italian keyboard layout like I chose to, period.09:42

andybrineA quick question in regards to 14.04. A times when I use ubuntu effects to see 4 desktops it wont allow me to then select which screen I want to use and gets stuck. Has anyone experienced this and knows how to fix this?11:38
ActionParsnipring3: if you make a new user, is it the same there?11:38

Yerstany ideas why?11:39
k1lnumberto: please ask the arch specialists, arch is not in the scope of this channel. thanks11:39
ActionParsnipring3: ah ok, that moots my idea.11:39
andybrineIf my question makes sense. lol11:39
ring3ActionParsnip: same resolution on kde and gnome, on gnome windows & fonts big11:39
Yersti don't mean shuttting down11:39
ActionParsnipring3: so the issue is purely the login screen?11:39
Yersti mean clapping down the display11:39
ring3ActionParsnip: gdm and gnome seems like less resolution, but hight resoluttion is setted11:39
LiiyesActionParsnip: I'm sorry but I'm french and I havn't understood anything about what you said here ^^'11:39
ActionParsnipLiiyes: in the desktop you right click and select extract, yes?11:40
MaxFramesjust to be clear, I downloaded the 32 bit pc iso from here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu11:40
ring3ActionParsnip: kdm and lightdm displays well the resolution11:40
ActionParsnipLiiyes: but in terminal there are lots of different commands for different types of archive11:40
ActionParsnipring3: ok then make a new ubuntu user and log in, if the sessions are ok, you know it is settings and not the applications themselves11:41
LiiyesActionParsnip: Oh yes ! I know that ^^11:41

ring3ActionParsnip: gdm is displayed before the log-in and has same problem11:41
ActionParsnipLiiyes: it looks at the data and uses the right method11:41

ActionParsnipring3: possibly, is the new user ok?11:45
ActionParsnipLiiyes: makes sense, although you'll have issues with systems without unp and you want to extract11:45

ActionParsnip?12:08
ActionParsnipmojtaba: NTFS cannot hold Linux file permissions, so you will need to precisely chmod and chown files on restore12:08

YeluLucax, it depends. The downloaded software could come as a .deb file. then you install it by clicking on the .deb file. Or it has a install.sh ("like" .bat) shipped with it, which you run from a shell. or it is a ppa, which has to be added to your packages list (see there "source.list" "adding a ppa"). Finally, There are other manual possibilities.12:32

skinuxFor some reason, my desktop background is black. How do I fix this?15:13
sudormrfodd issue that I am trying to work on here.  I added a repo but it cannot connect to it.  If I browse to the page it works just fine, just when using apt-get update or even wget it fails.  this *is* being done in a VM.  I started off with it NAT'd, but now it is using a bridged connection and it still isn't working.  Any ideas guys?15:14

ActionParsnipvirtualista: when you last unplugged it, did you use the safe removal feature?15:17
holsteinvirtualista: for your fat32 usb stick?15:17
virtualistayes, there is no error or any blabla on windows15:18
holsteinvirtualista: blabla?15:18
skinuxWhich log do I need to check???15:19
ActionParsnipvirtualista: run a chkdsk on the partition in Windows, then use the safe removal feature in the system tray and only unplug it when you are told15:19
reis_hi15:19
holsteinskinux: i would check my system.. usually i start with hardware testing15:19
virtualistaActionParsnip okey15:19
skinuxIt doesn't seem like any hardware problem.15:20
skinuxBut, which software should I run to check hardware?15:20

WereCatfI just updated my Ubuntu to 14.04 and all of a sudden my Samba-shares stopped working, trying to access them from Windows 7 just keeps asking for username and password. Before this it worked just fine without any usernames or passwords, so what changed?15:20
holsteinskinux: i would run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" in the terminal and report errors15:20
skinuxI just did that a couple of days ago15:20
holsteinWereCatf: permissions, likely15:21
shaydayHello is anyone using Ubuntu on a macbook?15:21
skinuxAnd, dist-upgrade isn't recommanded anymore15:21

WereCatfholstein: permissions on what?15:21
skinuxdo-release-upgrade is recommended now15:21
holsteinWereCatf: samba server15:21
holsteinskinux: im not asking you to do a release upgrade15:22
Slartskinux: dist-upgrade isn't the same as upgrade to the next release of ubuntu.. never was15:22
WereCatfholstein: Uh, why would they suddenly change? The smb.conf is exactly the same15:22
holsteinWereCatf: i dont read they changed suddenly.. you stated you upgraded15:22
skinuxTrying it now15:22
WereCatfholstein: Yes, I upgraded the system, but kept the same smb.conf15:22
shaydayCause I was just wondering would it be possible to install Ubuntu alone w/o refit I never use mac osx anymore anyways I've backed up my home dir and was hoping to o clean install for full space usage anyone know if its possible?15:22
holsteinWereCatf: i would start with the basics.. pinging the mmachines from each other.. checking samba is installed and running..15:23
daftykinsshayday: it makes more sense to keep OS X around for any potential firmware updates etc.15:23
daftykinsshayday: you could just leave a bare install on and shrink the partition down to the smallest you can get away with15:23
skinuxSo far, no errors...it's unpacking about 2MB of packages.15:23

WereCatfholstein: Considering the fact that I am using the machine over SSH I'd say network is working quite fine. Also, the shares can be accessed just fine from another Linux-system, but Windows 7 no longer can access it. So something changed and I need to know what.15:24

holstein!av | Guest9340115:26
ubottuGuest93401: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus15:26
ActionParsnipOliverUK: nothing in "man mail"15:26
daftykinsXip: what's on your disk already?15:26
ActionParsnipGuest93401: unless you run a fileserver or a mailserver you won't need it15:27
Xipdaftykins: files in the home directory, about 600 gb of content I want to preserve15:27
OliverUKActionParsnip: No, nothing relating to bcc, read that already15:27
Xipdaftykins: I can't back it up because I dont have anything to move it to15:27
Xipdaftykins: it's a former Ubuntu install that is whacky15:27
daftykinsXip: ok, so then in manual partitioning you want to set the /home partition up as your mount point, then set your original / as your EXT4 / and tell it to format it so you have a clean 14.04 install (assuming that's what you're doing)15:28
Xipdaftykins: Yeah it's a 14.04 install15:28

s1991ya, ofcourse15:57
holsteinbigred15: keep in mind, the drivers you are using for your audio are doing usually the best they can, and you were not guaranteed linux support for your hardware by the manufacterer15:57
s1991Rory: ya, ofcourse15:57
Rorys1991: If that directory doesn't exist it means you installed mysql manually somehow and set it up in a non-default location, so you will have to back up that location15:57
holsteinbigred15: sometimes, testing with live CD's to use a different alsa and/or kernel version can be very helpful15:58
s1991Rory: ok, i'll find out15:58
bigred15this occurs on gentoo/arch as well15:58
bigred15so i assume hardware15:58
holsteinbigred15: well, it could be hardware support. that could be the "best" alsa can do with that device15:58

ubottus1991: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo16:03
s1991Rory: no, I know about sudo, but how do I "cd" to that folder16:04
Rorys1991: You ought to back up the entire folder "sudo cp /var/lib/mysql/ /path/to/destination"16:04

Rory|JZ|: Speed of internet connection, and choice of mirror16:06
ActionParsnip|JZ|: busy server, contended connection16:06
MaxFramescan anyone confirm if, when installing 13.10 from scratch and choosing any language _other_ than english for the keyboard layout, the keyboard layout in the logon screen is correct/matches the chosen one?16:06
ActionParsnip|JZ|: if you use apt-fast it can help16:07
|JZ|i tried switching mirrors didnt help much16:07
MaxFramesI need someone who's running 13.10 and has any keyboard layout other than en-us or en-uk16:07
RoryMaxFrames: You ought to use 14.04 really, but yes, that is what happens16:07
ActionParsnipMaxFrames: 13.10 is EOL in June, you may want to use 14.04 which is LTS16:07
RoryMaxFrames: That is, indeed, the entire point of that option16:07
MaxFrameswell I installed 14.04 from scratch and chose Italian layout, but the logon screen wants to use en-us16:08
MaxFramesso I want to use 13.10 until this bug is fixed16:08
MaxFramesbut only of course if 13.10 doesn't have this issue16:08
RoryMaxFrames: If you change the keyboard layout on the login screen, you will only have to do it once16:08
MaxFramesI tried to (not to mention it-it was already selected) to no avail16:09
RoryMaxFrames: I have never encountered this bug, and I would have done because I have a # character in my password which always breaks if it is in a US layout16:09
daftykinsMaxFrames: why not just change it on the login screen?16:09
MaxFramesRory: are you on 14.04?16:09
RoryMaxFrames: Are you sure you selected Italian keyboard layout and not just language?16:09
RoryMaxFrames: Yes16:09
MaxFramesRoryHughes: absolutely positive16:09
BrianHAnyone else getting terrible performance from 14.04 in VB with Unity?16:09
MaxFramesI even repeated the install process twice16:10
RoryMaxFrames: You're asking if I'm sure what release I'm using?16:10
RoryMaxFrames: Oh16:10
RoryMaxFrames: Why not change the keyboard layout on the login screen? You would only have to do it once?16:10
MaxFramesRory: ubuntu or lubuntu? the problem might be only with lubuntu or only with the italian layout16:10
Roryah16:10
emxis this still valid for 14.04?16:10
RoryAsk in #lubuntu it's almost certainly specific to that, which uses different display technologies16:10
emxhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/434732/reinstall-ubuntu16:10
MaxFramesRory: as I said, I changed it, but it did not actually change (the gui said "Italian" but the actual layout was English)16:10

MaxFramesYelu: except this is not a live session, I've installed it16:14

daftykinsvedic: lubuntu-desktop16:14
Roryvedic: Popular options include Unity, Gnome, KDE, Mate, Cinnamon, XFCE, LXDE, Openbox+Tint16:14
MaxFramesadditionally, manually reapplying the layout preference did not fix anything16:14
YeluMaxFrames, you didn't mention (no live session)16:14
vedicdaftykins, Rory: Thanks16:15
MaxFramesok, so those are alternative login managers16:15
RoryMaxFrames: Those are alternative desktop environment and/or window managers16:15
RoryMaxFrames: I was answering vedic's question specifically16:16
MaxFramesI was talking about slim (not slime, I presume) and gdm which ActionParsnip suggested I tried16:16
vedicRory, daftykins: I would prefer the one which is not like Win 8 where you have categories to choose and then go to program etc. Prefer the old desktop without default recommended packages (don't need office, audio players etc but do need audio working)16:16

albeitHey all, I have four monitor connected and showing as active in the display manager, but two of them show no output (are in power save mode). But the mouse moves into the space as if they would be there... any ideas on how to get them running? Using open-source radeon driver.16:21
daftykinsalbeit: how are they connected?16:22
albeitThe two that are not working are connected via Displayport. The two that are working are DVI.16:22
albeitThe "main" video card, Radeon HD 6790, has one connected via DVI, which works, and the two non-working displayport ones.16:23

albeitxrandr shows the two non-working monitors as connected, and display manager says they are "ON".16:24

EleanorEllisjnj: I also had this issue on Ubuntu 12.04 but never managed to fix it16:41
rAg3Giddeon, i have a server in digital ocean, i dont think you need hostname to be fqdn. you can put it to whatever you like16:41
GiddeonrAg3: yah I'm seeing multiple opinions. It LOOKS like the hostname file is supposed to contain the short name and then the /etc/hosts file is used to determine the FQDN16:43

rAg3Giddeon, you require that if you are trying to set it to be a public rechable domain16:48
rAg3Giddeon, you can set so in /etc/hosts as well to point to your server16:48
vedicbigred15: openbox tint2 and obmenu didn't bring gui. Still in text mode16:49

vedicRory:^16:49
ljunggrenvedic, what are you trying to do?16:49
GiddeonrAg3: good point16:49
vedicljunggren: install gui for ubuntu 12.0416:49
vedicI have installed it as minimal system16:49
ljunggrenvedic, you installed from ubuntu minimal?16:49
rAg3Giddeon, it also depends on servers that you wish to run on the server, there are some servers that require that they are reachable on the domain that u r hosting in a public way16:49
ljunggrenAh, vedic you have a display manager?16:50
ljunggrenlightdm etc?16:50
vedicI don't think so. Terminal is suggesting me to install xinit16:50
ljunggrenyes16:50
rAg3Giddeon,  that is when the servers have methods that make use of the fqdn to interact with your system or register some services etc.16:50
ljunggrenvedic, http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.1/doc/xinit.1.html16:51
Atomos26I updated to 14.04, now compiz is consuming 1.5 GB ram, which I think is rather high.16:51
HidemeAm I better going with AMD or Nvidia videocard (support for latest drivers/performance) ?16:51
rAg3Giddeon, if you change your /etc/hosts it should suffice !!16:51
ljunggrenDoesn't just installing a display manager do the job? like lightdm16:52
ljunggrenHideme, Ive heard nvidia16:52
OerHeksAtomos26, check the driver tool for additional drivers for your videocard, that could solve the high use of your CPU to do that task16:52
vedicljunggren: I have installed now xinit but os boots in text mode. I need to type startx which just shows the mouse pointer and blank black screen16:52

vedicxfce I used 30 min back but it doesn't boot the os in gui. I had to write in bashrc to start startxfce416:55
ljunggrenvedic, lxde or xfce, lxde is openbox-based so it's pretty more liughtweight16:55
ljunggrenwell you have to install a login manager16:55

rimdekerholstein, unfortunately the repo version does not work for me. I end up getting a blackscreen and have to go into console to uninstall it again17:25
user124141holstein: nothing, I just wondered why Gnome integrates well with self-hosted thing (specifically owncloud) and unity not17:25
hikaruBGkostkon, i get dbus[755]: [system] rejected send message (and then a looong message with parameters)17:25
Sven_vBuser124141, meant you with the screensavers; also, have you tried emacs planner mode?17:25
hikaruBGand still won't login17:25
rimdekerHideme, according to the dates of the releases, the non-beta is newer, though... plus why have a beta 14.4 if you already have an actual 14.4?17:26
holsteinuser124141: it is owncloud that is likely providing the gnome support.. ask them about unity support.17:26
user124141Sven_vb: No, didnt tried that, but would be awesome to see upcoming events / unread messages onto screensaver17:26
user124141holstein: ah, ok17:26
kostkonhikaruBG, is this the first time booting ubuntu after install?17:26
holsteinrimdeker: the beta version of the driver.. not the operating system..17:26
Beldarrimdeker, This is ubuntu support, 3rd party apps ask them.17:26
Beldaror drivers17:27
trinodeI'm running 14.04 and I had wireless problems, so I installed mainline kernel 3.14.1 and that resolved my issues, is there somewhere I can get an "ubuntuized" 13.14.1 kernel?17:27
rimdekerholstein, I know, maybe I misworded it17:27
rimdekerBeldar, alrights17:27
holsteintrinode: the mainline kernel is not from ubuntu?17:27
trinodeholstein: it's a vanilla kernel, no ubuntu patches17:28
holsteintrinode: you can look for a bug, and make sure its reported for the kernel.. seems like you are implying the fix is already released.. maybe you can just use the kernel you have til the "Fix" trickles in17:29
Beldarrimdeker, The channel does not in general disregard helping where it may be the only option though. ;)17:29
trinodeholstein: that's the plan, I was kind of hoping there would be a ppa that kernels end up in before they make it into the normal trusty sources, since they need testing before entering a LTS repo17:30
trinodein theory, it _could_ be ubuntu patches that break it17:30
holsteintrinode: ppa's are just as unsupported as the kernel you are currently using17:30
rimdekerBeldar, I understand. I'm just a bit frustrated, because I was looking forward to upgrade to 14.04 after 12.04 has served me faithfully, but I'm not all that eager to install a closed source beta driver, because the stable ones doesn't support the kernel in 14.04 yet17:31
kostkontrinode, you asked for "ubuntuized" mainline kernel, here's how you may get it https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds17:31
pietro10_Hi. Is there a way to fake extra mouse buttons? I have a touchpad on a laptop and I'd like to test whether my software can detect buttons 4, 5, etc. - such as the navigation buttons on the sides of Microsoft mice. The BUtton3Emulation is not an option in this case. I do not need mouse wheel simulation. What can I do? Using KDE as the desktop environment right now. Thanks.17:31
Sven_vBpietro10_, xdotool17:31
Sven_vBpietro10_, there's also ways to re-assign mouse button numbers17:32
trinodekostkon: read the first paragraph on the page17:32
pietro10_thanks17:32
trinode(that's where I got my vanilla kernel)17:32
kostkontrinode, hmm yeah17:33
Maxi20Hay alguien por acá?17:33
Maxi20Oh... in english...17:33
Beldarrimdeker, Ah, There is in late july an update, 14.04.1 that opens the update manager, maybe you will be supported than, just guess here.17:33
trinodebasically I want to see if after ubuntu patches 13.14.1 kernel still works, if not I need to report a but to ubuntu17:33
loadisk priorities will not work if current shelduer is deadline?17:33
Maxi20I have a question, how to reverse the "login without password"?17:34
rimdekerBeldar, Alright, thank you. I'll just wait it out then. In the worst case, I'll just get a different and more compatible GPU17:34
OerHeksMaxi20, go into 'accounts' and edit your account settings17:35
BeldarMaxi20, the users gui app can turn that off17:35

niftylettuce_This problem is regarding Bluetooth/Alsa/PulseAudio on Ubuntu 13.10 (Linux Mint 16 Petra).  Per AskUbuntu threads at http://goo.gl/ITef0v, http://goo.gl/GdylZk, and http://goo.gl/Vb3Uz4 (among other forum threads I've found) -- I cannot get A2DP bluetooth working at all.  For starters, the only way my Bluetooth device/adapter will even show up on my computer17:42
niftylettuce_(so that I can "Scan" for bluetooth devices) is by running this script http://goo.gl/wQFJ6Q.  After my adapter shows up, I can then scan and connect to my Bluetooth headset (RFMAB-2 by RocketFish).  My Bluetooth adapter is Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter with built-in Bluetooth.  After connecting to the headset, I am able to see services17:42
niftylettuce_"Input", "Headset", and "Audio".  I am able to connect to "Headset" and "Audio", however it gives me Mono sound and does not let me change profile to A2DP (high quality) -- instead it says "Failed to change profile to A2DP".  Per the earlier linked AskUbuntu threads, I've tried changing my `/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf` file in every possible way to try to get17:42
niftylettuce_this to work -- but unfortunately every time I change it and restart bluetooth, my sound manager seems to freeze up and crash, and no matter if I do `pulseaudio-k` or `sudo alsa force-reload` or `sudo killall pulseaudio` or `sudo pkill pulseaudio`; the only way for my laptop's speakers even to start working again is if I completely restart my computer17:42
niftylettuce_(otherwise Sound Manager doesn't display any devices at all).17:42

salvatore_ciao a tutti. ho installato su acer aspire one a0751h xubuntu ma non riesco a fare funzionare il suono in maniera decente. va a scatti. i video, utilizzando gxine funzionano. ci sono suggerimenti?17:45

Jordan_U!gksudo | hikaruBG17:46
ubottuhikaruBG: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)17:46

pietro10_not sure how I skpped that in the man page, ti shows up in help17:48
niftylettuce_This might be my last straw before I switch from Ubuntu/Linux Mint to Macbook Air... lol17:49
niftylettuce_I tried posting my above comments as an issue on StackOverflow/AskUbuntu but it restricts me from posting more than 2 links and doesn't let me add all the tags I want (more than 5), so I'm just not going to bother, that's not user-friendly at all.17:50
pietro10_Sven_vB: ok, thanks - and that reveals the issue with xdotool earlier17:51
holsteinniftylettuce_: could be as simple as, you were not promised bluetooth support for your device in linux by the manufacturer..17:51
pietro10_apparently it's ont receiving down/up17:51
pietro10_:S17:52
pietro10_it does get registered as a modifier17:52
niftylettuce_holstein: it worked before in Ubuntu 12.0417:52
holsteinniftylettuce_: you will need to be very flexible, and proactive to help track that issue down, and realistically, there may not be a resolution17:52
codestationI have some question about ppa (not sure is this is the correct channel for that): i uploaded a package to my ppa so it can be built but used an incorrect orig tarball. dput doesn't let me upload the correct tarball (rejects it because it has different contents than the first one that i uploaded). I deleted the package from the ppa and dput still tells me that message. I cannot get the orig tarball that uploaded first because i don't have that entry in17:52
codestationmy ppa anymore. What can i do?17:52
mheinkeniftylettuce_, if it worked in 12.04 did it work in 13.x?17:52
niftylettuce_holstein: if there are some more things that I can do to look into this problem, please let me know.  I've checked into syslog, dmesg, lspci, etc17:53
holsteinniftylettuce_: 12.04 is still supported.. you may choose to use it, if the support is ideal in 12.04, and you need that functionality.. is that an option?17:53
Anomie21root@ns317368:~# service plexmediaserver start17:53
Anomie21start: Job is already running: plexmediaserver17:53
Anomie21But I can't access it via the port?17:53
niftylettuce_mheinke: doesn't work in 13.x at all17:53
niftylettuce_holstein: i don't want to just downgrade b/c i can't figure this out, i want to figure this out.17:53
mheinkeniftylettuce_, so its probably a package that was removed from 13/1417:53
niftylettuce_holstein mheinke it appears that DOZENS of other people have this same issue.17:53
holsteinniftylettuce_: its not something to "figure out", though. its something your manufacterer should figure out17:53
niftylettuce_mheinke: how is it a package that was removed?  that doesn't many any sense -- the problem is that Sound Manager completely freezes and that I can't switch to A2DP17:54
niftylettuce_Manufacturer? wtf, since when do manufacturers build in support for linux,17:54
niftylettuce_thats why we are open source17:54
holsteinniftylettuce_: many do.. and thats the way you adress this, ideally17:54
niftylettuce_holstein: i know that, but this worked in 12.04 LTS and I feel it's a configuration of /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf17:54
mheinkeniftylettuce_, manufacturers have to most of the time because they have binary drivers and provide 0 support17:54
holsteinniftylettuce_: otherwise, you are always going to be at a compromise of developers trying to support things they are not able to, or encouraged to support17:55
niftylettuce_mheinke: i can connect my bluetooth adapter to my phone just fine, and i can connect it to my touchpad just fine, it is simply the audio that isn't right with 13.x17:55
holsteinniftylettuce_: the reason it worked in 12.04 could be as simple as the alsa version. could be the kernel.. could be something that you could add back in..17:55
niftylettuce_holstein: yeah this is what i want to look into ^17:55
mheinkeniftylettuce_, hmmmm could be alsa17:55
niftylettuce_holstein: any pointers as to where I should start?17:55
mheinkeniftylettuce_, id be less inclined to think that its the kernal...17:56
niftylettuce_i mean my audio works with mono HSP or whatever but not A2DP as it did before17:56
holsteinniftylettuce_: start by identifying the alsa versions.. filing bugs as far upstream as possible..17:56
niftylettuce_audio via bluetooth headset -- just won't let me switch to A2DP -- it shows it as an option but when i select it doesn't stay and "Fail to switch" err17:56
mheinkeniftylettuce_, look at what version alsa is for 12.04 and install it on your machine (probably will need to compile it)17:56
holsteinniftylettuce_: you can try pavucontrol for routing17:56
Jordan_Uniftylettuce_: Please file a bug report (if one hasn't already been filed).17:56
Jordan_U!bug | niftylettuce_17:57

nateman264Good morning all... Can someone help me with getting ulimate edition onto an external hardrive?17:57
niftylettuce_Jordan_U: Just do a simple google search "A2DP failed to switch", "Ubuntu 13.10 bluetooth not working", etc17:57
niftylettuce_Jordan_U: ZERO of them are solved.17:57
mheinkeniftylettuce_, looks like alsa 1.0.24 might do the trick17:57
Jordan_Uniftylettuce_: Would you mind linking to one of them?17:57
holsteinniftylettuce_: then, follow them, and stay current on the development.. it can be challenging, as we all know, since the manufacturers may or may not be helpful17:57

daftykinsEleanorEllis: graphics hardware and driver?18:34
sluidfoeHowdy, all. After an update from 13.04 to 14.04, uname -r seems to be reporting the wrong kernel. When I run uname, it tells me that I'm on 3.11.*, but my boot directory has images for 3.8 and 3.13, with menu.lst configured approriaptely. I've rebooted several times and not having any luck. any ideas?18:34

dtcrshrbut I bet amazon has more bandwidth / hardware resources than your pc at home / resident broadband18:35
kostkonsluidfoe, you could run update-grub18:36
Jordan_Usluidfoe: Ubuntu hasn't used grub legacy by default in many years. The fact that you mentioned a menu.lst (which is grub legacy) suggests to me that you accidentally installed the "grub" package, and now have a broken combination of grub legacy and grub2.18:36
Beldarsluidfoe, menu.list this legacy grub?18:37
OerHekssluidfoe, ubuntu uses No /boot/grub/menu.lst. It has been replaced by /boot/grub/grub.cfg18:37
EleanorEllisdaftykins: lspci | grep VGA gives this      "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)".  How do I find which driver is in use?18:38

RootSethHey, have an issue I've never seen before just crop up. Have a laptop with Kali, debian, arch and ubuntu. Ubuntu when selected in grub (the new one) just goes to a black screen with a small white underscore in the top left corner. Stays like that until i Ctrl+Alt+Del then it flashes something about it not being on /dev/sda6 which is the partition it has been working fine on. Most recent change: installed Kali. After i installed, 19:03
EleanorEllisRootSeth: Check in gparted whether the partition ubuntu is on is still /dev/sda6. I have had the issue where I deleted an earlier partition and all the following partitions renumbered themselves19:05
BeldarRootSeth, Is kali at the top of the grub meanu?19:05
EleanorEllisRootSeth: Your message was truncated at "Most recent change: installed Kali. After i installed, "19:06
RootSethYes Sir! I remember reading about it screwing up installations awhile ago.19:07
RootSeth[15:05] (Beldar), it is at the top.19:08
EleanorEllisRootSeth: The other thing you could try is updating grub from within Kali. It sounds like your grub config is pointing to /dev/sda6 but not finding ubuntu on that partition. Maybe if you update grub, it will find whatever the ubuntu partition is now19:08
RootSethEleanorEllis, partitions are the same.19:09
BeldarRootSeth, update-grub in kali and make sure fstab is correct19:09
EleanorEllisRootSeth: Although I thought grub used UUID rather than /dev/sdxy now19:09

m1dnight_hey guys, which folder should I use to place scripts I want to be in my path ?19:12
giginalist!19:12
BeldarRootSeth, Kali has the grub menu control, so check it's fstab, " same page here"19:12
m1dnight_on the leiningen website they talk about ~/bin, but that folder doesn't exist?19:12
EleanorEllisBeldar and RootSeth: I don't see what difference fstab in Kali will make to Ubuntu. Grub doesn't see where an operating system mounts partitions since grub happens before the OS is loaded.19:13
EleanorEllisAnd it seems the problem is that grub is not finding ubuntu where it expects to find it. This would seem to be purely a problem of the grub config19:13
awesomess3m1dnight_, you'd have to create the 'bin' directory in your home directory. Then in .bashrc you add it to your path with something like: PATH="$PATH;~/bin"19:14
awesomess3m1dnight_, I'm only 17% sure that's right.   It might be something like:  export PATH="$PATH;/home/whatever/bin"19:15

direpis one method more thorough than the other? is there perhaps another, superior method?21:27
koelljohnny_: in /etc/apache2/sites-available/ you can edit the settings for a vhost, to change the DirectoryIndex21:28

Vooloois it possible to run ubuntu off a USB? I mean is it powerful enough? It will only sit and show a browser 24/7 for a HTML/javascript dashboard. Nothing else. I was thinking raspberry pi first, but if there is a USB stick that can do it that saves me a lot of space.22:16
mikelAre there commands I should run to get my partitionig information shared with you all?22:16

mikelholstein: So the problem is that I need a swap partition. I've managed to shrink the root partition (which is inside the luks partition, sda6), but I can't figure out how to add the swap partition or how to shrink the luks partition to make room for it.22:24
holsteinmikel: gparted.. i would want to have all my data backed up.. and personally, i may just not add swap..22:25
holsteinmikel: how much ram do you have?22:25
mikelholstein: I need swap to run virtual machines.22:25
YeluTeraJL, that is your system's graphics server (X-Sever) and should not be killed. => black out ...22:25
mikelholstein: I only have 4GB of RAM...and gparted doesn't support luks.22:25
holsteinmikel: i dont think thats a good idea22:25
holsteinmikel: but, do what you like22:26
TeraJLYelu: thanks... i'm using ubuntu gnome, and i can't install some extensions, but i get no feedback, where can i find the logs?22:26
mikelholstein: you don't think ading it is?22:26
VoolooJordan_U: can it work with just a monitor and put the usb stick into a usb port on the monitor? or do you actually need a computer too?22:26
holsteinmikel: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=72672422:26
holsteinmikel: correct.. i dont think its a good idea to add and expect swap to facilitate virtual machines22:26
Jordan_UVooloo: You still need a computer.22:26
john125just installed java ADT on 13,10.... And fixed the menu bugs!!22:27
YeluTeraJL, as a start => https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxLogFiles22:27
mikelholstein: yeah, I was looking at that post. I get stuck though when I get to: sudo cryptsetup status crypt1. Instead of telling me about the partition, it just says, "/dev/mapper/crypt1 is inactive"22:27
mikelholstein: only reason I mention the VMs is because they take a lot of RAM and 4GB won't be enough to run them reliably. I at least need swap on the off chance that I use up my RAM so things don't just start crashing all over the place.22:28
holsteinsurgemcgee: control alt delete takes me out to the login manager, if im running qtcreator or not22:29
holsteinmikel: sure.. so go for it.. im just going on record as saying, i would want backups, and i think its a bad idea22:30
mikelholstein: well yeah, it's a new laptop, so I don't have a lot of data on it or anything.22:30
holsteinmikel: you need to backup anything you may lose by breaking the disk doing the resize22:30

k1l_aguitel: install the ubuntu-desktop package22:46
EleanorElliswisescribe7: You need to give yourself write permission on the folder you want to save in. You should already have this for your home directory. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions22:47

pollicinoti ringrazio22:47
aguitelJordan_U, k1l_  10.04 works fine in my old laptop this is my reason to install it22:48
EleanorElliswisescribe7: Don't just give yourself write permission on any old directory anywhere though. Those permissions are there for a reason, to prevent you overwriting files that are used by the system. You should only be saving files to your home directory or sub directories anyway.22:48
k1l_aguitel: that is no reason to go with insecure softwrae22:48
k1l_aguitel: see Lubuntu. that is made for older/slower hardware22:48

sudormrfhey guys, serious question, how could I completely remove a DE from ubuntu desktop?22:50
Jordan_Uaguitel: Not for GUI packages it doesn't.22:50
sudormrfmeaning I want to strip it back to basically be like ubuntu server22:50
k1l_aguitel: the server programs get security updates. but not the desktop and GUI stuff.22:50
ikoniasudormrf: just remove the packages22:50
aguitelJordan_U, k1l_  ok22:51
sudormrfikonia, yes, so would that be like apt-get remove unity*22:51
sudormrfor something else?22:51
sudormrfI have a feeling it is going to be tedious22:51
ikoniasudormrf: open the package manager click the desktop packages, and click remove22:51
ikoniasudormrf: yes, it probably will be tedious22:51
sudormrfwell darn.22:51
EleanorElliswisescribe7: If the disk you are talking about is formatted with NTFS (if it's an external hard drive then it probably is), then you will have to mount it read/write. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions22:53
Jordan_Usudormrf: You should be able to misuse http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ to make a list of all packages that you would need to install from a minimal system to install ubuntu-desktop. You can then remove them all instead.22:53

holsteintheLadder: i would keep troubleshooting and make sure the resolution change is what is the trigger.. and try other resolutions/drivers, if available23:26
theLadderholstein, tried it multiple times with both Xubuntu and ubuntu...23:27
holsteintheLadder: you tried it?23:27
holsteintheLadder: tried what? chaging resolution? and that is the trigger?23:27
theLadderholstein, yes, the default resolution is 720p but 1080p is the correct resolution for my display, whenever i change, i get the prompt that ask me to keep or revert the new settings23:29
theLadderholstein, and it counts down, after 2 seconds, screen freezes, then after a few more seconds, the computer reboots itself23:29
TiensbakungtheLadder, check your log files, may have some error infos23:29
theLadderholstein, i do not have this problem with 13.1023:29
holsteintheLadder: the "correct" may be what you can get working with linux.. since linux seems to not be that well supported by your hardware23:30
holsteintheLadder: in those situations, i do as i stated, and try other graphics drivers, when possible, or compromise on resolution settings.. or try other ways of forcing resolution settings23:31
sergio-br2hello23:31
holsteintheLadder: there are the PPA's from the xorg edgers.. they sometimes help provide more support23:33

holsteini think it would take much less time, and not risk carrying over an error from the 13.10 install23:44
k1l_holstein: a generic clean source.list should be fine23:45
