[00:00] Tiensbakung: because, i dont have network connection in my laptop :) [00:01] !offline [00:01] If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ - See also !APTonCD [00:01] Festour: that normally is a driver issue, not a firmware issue [00:02] Festour: what is your problem exactly? your network card not recognized? [00:03] oops, okay. Then, you know how install driver? [00:03] Tiensbakung, wrong, sometimes it is a firmware package [00:03] Tiensbakung: i see in network tray, what my network card do nothing [00:03] hello! I have a problem with kubuntu 14.04, scrolling with the touchpad is always too fast and changing scroll options doesn't affect scroll speed, did anybody else find this problem? [00:04] Tiensbakung: maybye, my network card not recognized [00:04] Festour, normally you would update/install wireless driver with lancable connected [00:04] OerHeks: lancable dont work too :( [00:05] OerHeks: i write it from other pc [00:05] Festour, let me guess, intel e1000 ? [00:06] OerHeks: intel Centrino Advanced - N 6300 === akim_ is now known as akim [00:08] Festour: what does the network tray tell you then? [00:09] Festour: does it say: disconnected or something else? [00:09] Tiensbakung: nothing, like what network card removed from laptop [00:09] exit [00:10] Tiensbakung: no errors, but i cant find any Wi Fi, or check lan status [00:10] Tiensbakung: because, he dont have anything [00:10] Festour: run "lspci | grep -i net" in the terminal gives you anything? [00:12] Tiensbakung: yes, he give me name of my network card [00:12] Tiensbakung: correct name [00:12] Festour: that should mean you card is correctly recognized and have proper driver installed [00:13] Tiensbakung: okay, but how i can connect to internet? [00:13] Tiensbakung: one command in terminal? [00:14] Festour: That will be really great. ;-)I don't know what the problem really is [00:15] Festour: have you googled the web, anyone out there having same card and same problem as you? [00:16] Festour: what that command tells you is, your card should be properly supported by the linux kernel, so you have a high chance to get it working properly [00:17] Tiensbakung: problem like this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1296679 [00:17] Launchpad bug 1296679 in linux (Ubuntu) "8086:422b Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 - Packet loss/dropout using WiFi-N" [Medium,Triaged] [00:19] Tiensbakung: in top of network tray, i find what nothing network equipement avaiable === ubuntu is now known as Guest6888 [00:19] Tiensbakung: sorry, i dont see it [00:20] Festour: that bug talks about packet loss/drop, not exactly as yours, their cards are already working [00:20] Festour: is that the exactly same card model as yours? === rafael is now known as Guest80975 [00:20] yes [00:21] Centrino Advanced N 65300 [00:21] dhcp? [00:21] 6300 [00:21] what does ifconfig show [00:21] Festour: they are also talking about a workaround, maybe you can try that [00:22] funnieguy: i find 127.0.0.1, but that is not what i want [00:23] Hi [00:24] Festour: he means, how many network interfaces are shown there. lo is for localhost, anything like eth0 or wlan0 also shown there? [00:24] Tiensbakung: only localhost [00:24] the 14.04 .iso for amd64 download is 964M but I found the torrent and it is 1.01G ... whats the deal there? [00:24] Festour, ifconfig -a [00:25] Seven_Six_Two: always, onlu localhost [00:25] don't torrent? [00:26] maybe do static ip? [00:26] Festour: Oh!!! Then, is this the problem since refresh install, or after you have done something? [00:26] sudo service restart [00:26] Tiensbakung: just after fresh install [00:26] haha [00:26] probably try restarting the system [00:26] or restart if [00:26] Festour: Because according to that bug report, your card is working, it's just packet lost problem === Motoservo_ is now known as Motoservo [00:27] FunkyELF: torrent from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads ? [00:27] Tiensbakung: when i used live usb 14.04, network work correctly [00:27] funnieguy: i have try restart already, but that doent help [00:27] Festour, I missed the original question (just arrived). is this wireless? live-dvd? [00:29] Seven_Six_Two: i just install ubuntu 14.04 from live usb, and ubuntu 14.04 (not live usb) cant connect to ethernet, ni WiFi, ni Lan [00:29] Hello fellas [00:29] Seven_Six_Two: when i used live usb, i have used without problems ethernet connection [00:29] Hi im looking for something that works sort of like an audio server. [00:29] I want something like XBMC but just for audio. [00:30] Festour: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi [00:30] I want a piece of software, that lets you remotely (from smartphone) control the audio output of the server. [00:30] Does anybody know software like that [00:30] mrd_: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ [00:30] Tiensbakung: i have downloaded it, but i dont know how install it [00:30] So i can play radio streams [00:30] Festour, can you pastebin the output of lspci -v and lsusb -v [00:30] Festour: your card is supported since kernel version 2.6.30 [00:30] for example. [00:30] chromecast? [00:30] SupaYoshi, mpd [00:30] Seven_Six_Two: i write it from other pc [00:30] No, I want to connect it to a old stereo [00:30] I have an EEE pc. [00:30] SupaYoshi_: There are many VLC remote apps for Android. [00:31] That i want to use as a AUX for the stereo [00:31] k10: Hello, you have a support request ? [00:31] Seven_Six_Two: but that command show correct name of my card [00:31] Festour: no you don't have to, drivers are integrated in the kernel [00:31] Festour, try editing /etc/network/interfaces [00:31] So I can play songs to it. [00:31] mpd? [00:31] add eth0 [00:31] No for the moment [00:31] mrd_: I think I found why... it was transmission saying it was 1.01G but really it was 965M which times 1024^2 == 1011875840 which is where Transmission got 1.01 [00:31] Festour: try "lsmod | grep iwl" gives you anything [00:31] SupaYoshi, sorry, that's to control a media player from any device. [00:31] Ah ok. [00:31] auto eth0 [00:31] I just want to control the server itself. [00:32] iface eth0 inet dhcp [00:32] Being the client and server simutanisly [00:32] SupaYoshi, you want something like Icecast or tombstone [00:32] But it doesnt have a screen, well it does. [00:32] Ah i will check that. [00:32] I got plex now [00:32] but its useless [00:32] for what i want. [00:32] Tiensbakung: nothing [00:32] Festour: ok, that is your problem. [00:33] SupaYoshi, check packages named ampache icecast tombstone [00:33] Tiensbakung: then, how i can fix it? [00:33] the first is audio control and stream, the second is a proper streaming server, the third is DLNA [00:34] Festour: basically what lspci shows you is that, you card is supported, and the kernel has that driver. lsmod shows you, that the driver is not loaded, which is really odd [00:34] Festour, use sudo modprobe drivername [00:34] Festour: try "sudo modprobe iwlwifi" [00:34] How do I move Ubuntu One files to Google Drive or to some other cloud storage? [00:34] Seven SIX [00:34] Tiensbakung: and how i load that driver? [00:34] I want to stream TO the server [00:34] Seven_Six_Two: that for install driver? [00:34] And like, TO the server and ON the server. [00:34] the output has to be on the server itself. [00:35] SupaYoshi, where does the sound come from? [00:35] The audio card. [00:35] Just a 3.5mm connector [00:35] SupaYoshi, on the server? where is the media? [00:35] yes [00:35] On the server or on the phones [00:35] like airplay. [00:35] Festour: any luck? [00:35] SupaYoshi, try mpd [00:35] or like sonos. [00:35] Tiensbakung: :( some errors [00:35] I want to use it like sonos, / airplay. [00:36] Festour: what? [00:36] So someone has spotify, they can play songs on the server. / and output it automaticly to the 3.5 jack [00:36] Tiensbakung: could not instert iwlfifi : Function not implemented [00:36] MPD? [00:36] ok [00:36] SupaYoshi, mpd has different clients, including web. it's a server that plays either locally or remotely, and you use a separate client to control it. [00:36] Good Morning #ubuntu, for some reason i cant ssh in to my virtual box over hamachi but i can vnc into the virtual box host over hamachi... and ssh through my vnc client into my virtual box through hamachi.... i'm confused [00:36] And like, is it possible to have a list of like 10 radio streams? [00:36] Ok that cool! [00:36] Yeah [00:36] Tiensbakung: and that command cant open some files [00:36] i was looking for somethin like that ;) [00:37] Basically I want XBMC but thats too heavy [00:37] BEcause I only need audio [00:37] SupaYoshi, yeah, I used to use mpd on my server with gmpc [00:37] cool [00:37] gmpc? [00:37] SupaYoshi, it's a client. You need one for it to work. [00:38] Cool :D [00:38] SupaYoshi, well, you need one to start it. You can connect, add songs to playlist, press play, then disconnect, and it will continue playing since the client isn't where the sound comes from. === daninoz_ is now known as daninoz [00:39] Thats exactly what i was looking for Seven_Six_Two [00:39] :D [00:39] thanks so much ;P [00:39] SupaYoshi, you can also have multiple clients connected at the same time (that gets crazy at parties) [00:40] :p [00:40] its for the use in an pub [00:40] ;P [00:40] hehe [00:40] so this is gonna be fun :p [00:40] can i just do sudo apt-get install mpd? [00:40] because if finds somethin but it loves to intall loads of stuff [00:40] SupaYoshi, I believe so [00:40] Festour: OK. I am not sure what files are missing. But you can try downloading the driver in a pre-compiled .deb format from the ubuntu repo, so the version matches the ubuntu version. Not the source code from kernel.org. [00:40] is that it? ;p [00:41] cool mate! [00:41] Any grooveshark / spotify addons for it? [00:41] Or something a like? [00:41] for them? [00:41] and is this an issue"? Failed to load database: Failed to open database file "/var/lib/mpd/tag_cache": No such file or directory [00:41] SupaYoshi, you'll have to edit the config file to set up your audio and library. I don't know about streams... [00:41] Tiensbakung: how i can download from repo while i use windows? [00:42] np! [00:42] So, does anyone know how to transfer Ubuntu One files to a different online cloud? Kinda dumb here. [00:42] SupaYoshi, edit the config file, and point all of those to folders in the mpd user's home (likely your own) [00:42] it's running as non-root, trying to write to root ares [00:43] Seven_Six_Two: where is the config file? [00:43] linuxlite1969, I believe you will have to download it to a machine first. [00:43] Festour: doesn't matter, you can browse the repo with any modern browser, find what you want, download it, transfer to that compputer with a usb stick [00:43] I cant find it in the docs. hehe [00:43] http://www.musicpd.org/doc/user/ch03.html [00:43] Festour: Then try installing that with "sudo dpkg -i [driver name].deb" [00:43] SupaYoshi, sorry, it's been a while. I think there's one in your home, or look in /etc/ or /etc/mpd [00:43] You mean download all files to my computer first and then get them to another online storage? [00:43] SupaYoshi, the config file is documented iirc [00:43] Tiensbakung: ok, thanks for help [00:44] Tiensbakung: i will try find it [00:44] linuxlite1969, yes, unless both services have connectors [00:44] Festour: but I suspect your installation is not very complete. If it's not working, i would suggest a clean and complete reinstall [00:45] Tiensbakung: hm, okay. That is good idea [00:45] linuxlite1969, you could sign up for a free year of amazon's AWS, ssh in to a machine, and download them to that. That way its cloud-cloud-cloud [00:45] Festour: no problem;-) Now i have to go sleep. Good night. [00:46] hummm well, thanks for your input. [00:46] Tiensbakung: good night, you too:) [00:46] linuxlite1969, let me know if you find a better way. Maybe there's a website that does just that? [00:46] k thanks [00:48] Hello there! I am trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on my system with bootable pendrive but it doesnt show me on which logical drive I should install. It shows me complete 500GB HDD. Windows 7 is already installed on my system. I want a dual boot [00:50] yogesh, it's likely that windows has taken all of the available space, and you will have to partition before you can install. I'm not sure if it's still the case, but it used to be recommended that you do a full defragment of your windows partition before resizing it, so that you get the most contiguous space. [00:51] Seven_Six_Two: windows is installed on C drive only there are 3 more drives left on my system. [00:51] yogesh, once you think you're ready, you can use a utility such as gparted on a live cd to shrink your windows partition before starting the install process. [00:51] yogesh, you have 3 physical drives? or does windows show that you have c: d: and e: ? [00:52] Seven_Six_Two: yes exaclty [00:53] yogesh: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". [00:53] yogesh, NOTE: that was an "or" question, and can't be answered with yes/no [00:53] When I try to use GNU indent on file on a CIFS mount ("indent test.txt") I get the error message "indent: Fatal Error: Can't stat input file test.txt \n indent: System Error: Value too large for defined data type" I'm using mount.cifs version 6.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 and mounting with "sudo mount.cifs //Server_Name/share_name /mnt/ -o user=samba_username,uid=$UID,gid=$GID". Any ideas why this might be happening, and how to fix it? [00:53] yogesh, sorry, I suppose it doesn't have to be. please output from Jordan_U's command [00:55] Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/R1m40qfA, I guess ubuntu has overwritten my system [00:58] Jordan_U: while installing on selecting "something else" option I was getting all 500GB disk . it was not showing any partition. Then I selected "Use LVM with new ubuntu installation" [00:58] It did not warn me that it will erase all files form system, now I think it did :( [00:58] yogesh: Yes. When you told the installer to use the whole disk, it did. Do you have backups of all of the important data that was on the drive before? [00:59] no [00:59] yogesh, yes, that looks like there is no windows left. Why are you using lvm? [00:59] Seven_Six_Two: just because any other option did not help me. I dont know what the hell this LVM is? [00:59] I'm pretty sure the installer detects other operating systems, doesn't it? [01:00] yogesh: I'm very sorry then, while you may be able to recover some data, you won't be able to recover all of it and you may need to do some work with what is recoverable (it may not have the original filename for instance). [01:00] Seven_Six_Two: it didn't, and did not warn me before erase my disk [01:00] yogesh, it's if you want multiple harddrives to look like a single one, so that you can have a super-large filesystem [01:00] Jordan_U: is it possible to recover something? [01:01] yogesh: Yes, utilities like photorec may be able to recover some files. [01:01] Seven_Six_Two: thanks for the info [01:01] yogesh, you might be able to recover some if you bring it to a computer forensics pro, [01:01] Jordan_U: is it a paid utility? [01:01] yogesh: No, it's Free. [01:02] yogesh, do you only have photos to recover?] [01:02] Seven_Six_Two: yes [01:02] Seven_Six_Two: some files too [01:02] oh that's good. I believe that they are easier than other files to recover. [01:02] Jordan_U: thanks, going to try [01:03] yogesh: You're welcome. [01:03] do you guys believe that photos still exist on HDD? ubuntu installer would not have erased them? [01:04] because after installation , it did a restart [01:04] yogesh, most filesystem maintenance is just in the allocation tables. [01:04] photorec is as good as it gets, unless you *really* want to get the wallet out.. and that may not do any better [01:04] Good Morning #ubuntu, for some reason i cant ssh in to my virtual box over hamachi but i can vnc into the virtual box host over hamachi... and ssh through my vnc client into my virtual box through hamachi.... i'm confused === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [01:05] yogesh, format might have overwritten, but it would be a standard pattern. Forensics specialists can see data that's been overwritten multiple times. [01:05] holstein: wallet has nothing :( [01:05] yogesh: From now until you've recovered all that you can from the internal hard drive, do not to anything that will write to the internal hard drive (including booting from the internal drive, use a LiveCD/USB instead to rever files). [01:06] yogesh: then, try the free tool that i cant imagine anyone disagreeing with [01:06] yogesh, that's why ppl say that if you want to erase your data, put a nail through your harddrive. [01:09] Seven_Six_Two: [01:09] Do yu kno a good android client? [01:09] Andchat [01:10] SupaYoshi, sorry no. I haven't looked for a while [01:10] ok [01:10] Genymotion is a good client [01:10] supayoshi. Try andchat [01:10] I need something fool proof [01:11] and i ment a MPD client hehe [01:11] ? [01:11] :p [01:11] pratsat26, not irc client. mpd client === webdigi is now known as rubixrex [01:12] My bad :) [01:12] SupaYoshi, http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Clients === rrrre445534 is now known as the_mighty_bogan === rww is now known as rww` [01:16] Jordan_U, Seven_Six_Two : thank you guys !! Photorec seems working nice, it is saying 14 hours to complete recovery [01:17] hey guys. I'm trying to connect to AIM through XMPP, but I'm getting a connection error. Anyone here familiar with it? [01:17] well I would like to have my system dual boot system. how should I go now? [01:19] yogesh, you have to reinstall windows, and then reinstall linux [01:19] Or update grub :) [01:19] caeser, are you sure they use xmpp? [01:19] help my vlc will not open up anymore i have uninstalled and reinstalled and nothing [01:19] yogesh, did windows disk manager show unallocated space before you attempted the ubuntu install? [01:19] 762, I saw this article: http://juberti.blogspot.com/2008/01/aim-xmpp-gateway-is-now-live.html [01:20] Seven_Six_Two: while installing window I will create partitions but the same problem will come while installing ubuntu, It ignores the partitions [01:20] which suggests using xmpp.oscar.aol.com [01:20] yogesh, you have to install windows first, and then during ubuntu install, don't say "use whole disk", but instead choose "do something else" [01:21] yogesh: If you re-install Windows then install Ubuntu I expect that you will *not* hit the same issue again. The installer only considered the whole drive unallocated because you had a partition table that was invalid in some way (like two partitions partially overlapping). [01:21] install windows first, but dont use all space for windows install [01:21] mrghostman: There were 4 partitions. [01:21] leave unpartitioned space available for ubuntu to create its own partitions [01:21] Seven_Six_Two: yes I tried do something else but it showed me complete disk [01:22] yogesh: For some reason it seems like OEMs like using terrible partitioning tools that make invalid partitions tables, but Windows' own installer (hopefully) shouldn't do so. [01:22] yogesh: i have a feeling you had 4 NTFS partitions, and ubuntu did not see any available unpartitioned space available [01:23] yogesh, when you do that, you have to remove and create your own partitions before continuing. if it showed one partition, then that's what you have. [01:23] prior to the install, you would need to shrink one of those ntfs partitions which would leave unpartitioned space [01:23] dw1: Thank you and owh and others for helping me so much. Sadly, I have tried everything I know to do and Ubuntu simply does not install. I have even tried to install 12.04.04 ans it too did not work. So I have to move to an OS that will. [01:24] mrghostman: yogesh: Seven_Six_Two : The problem was an invalid partition table, which Ubuntu's installer displays to the user as a completely "unallocated" drive rather than properly reporting the actual error. It's unfotunately common. [01:24] Seven_Six_Two: does MBR, GPT partition type matter here? [01:25] Jordan_U: you are right, but how this invalid partitioning happens? [01:25] yogesh, that's beyond my depth. I haven't dual-booted since early XP [01:26] Hi, I get errors similiar to INFO: task jbd2/dm-0-8:969 blocked for more than 120 seconds ... I think this has something to do with my disk? Any ideas what a cause, or even better, a solution might be? [01:27] Seven_Six_Two: Soon will have system only for me, but for now I need dual boot :( [01:29] Hey I have been having problems with setting a static ip address in a virtual instance of ubuntu any one else run into the same issues? [01:30] yogesh: As far as I've been able to tell, there is some terribly written Windows partition software out there. The most common invalid partition table is where two partitions overlap. The partition table contains start and stop addresses, and so it's possible to have a partition table with an entry for partition one that says "starts at block 1000 and ends at block 5000", and an entry for partition two that says "starts at block ... [01:30] ... 4000 and ends at block 8000". So blocks 4000 through 5000 are considered to be owned by both partitions. This is clearly wrong, and no partitioning software should ever write such a partition table, and yet I see it about once a month. I wish I know what software was doing this and could shame them into fixing it. [01:31] s/know/knew/ [01:31] should I take my question to another server [01:31] s/docks/dicks/g [01:32] Anyone have any ideas on the issue I'm having === vito_ is now known as Guest26579 [01:33] echo "docksdocksdocks" | sed 's/o/i/g' [01:34] Jordan_U: if yogesh had run gparted from the live cd first, would it have shown the overlapping partitions? [01:35] mrghostman: No, it also would have shown a completely unallocated drive. All libparted apps, except parted itself, seem to do this rather than giving the user a useful error message :( [01:35] interesting [01:38] is there a shortcut for launching a terminal? [01:38] ctrl alt T [01:39] bazhang, thanks.... is there a list of these somewhere? [01:41] okay, potentially easier question; how would I connect to this server using xchat: http://irc.lc/freenode/xmpp/irctc@@@ [01:41] https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/OS/KeyboardShortcuts elfMobile [01:41] elfMobile: you can see unity shorcuts if you hold super(windows) key for a seconds [01:43] Is anyone else having issues with Minitube? It crashes a lot with this distro unlike others I use. === p is now known as Guest98620 [01:44] is libotr4 available in a repo somewhere, or do i have to make my own? === Guest98620 is now known as nowl [01:50] www [01:52] open stack [01:53] chillpill_: libotr5 is available in the repo, do you need 4 specifically? [01:54] teratoma: libotr5 is available in the repo, do you need 4 specifically? [01:54] Why is apt-get install git-svn trying to install everything under the sun? [01:54] where should I put my own environment variables?... in ~/.bashrc or is there some place else that gets source and doesn't already have a bunch of stuff in it? [01:54] It's trying to install weechat?? [01:55] elfMobile: I've always put stuff in ~/.bashrc [01:55] Put it at the end... [01:56] nezZario: Please pastebin the exact output of "sudo apt-get install git-svn". [01:56] nezZario: if you just do a apt-get -f install, doesn't it do anything? git-svn doesn't pull in weechat for me (14.04) [01:56] It says they're 'extra' packages... [01:57] http://pastebin.com/4Vns29fC [01:58] nezZario: And "sudo apt-get -f install"? [01:59] I'm still on 13, I haven't had the data to do the 1,400 upgrades pending until today when my cap reset (and, I just haven't done it today) [01:59] yeah, 1437 not upgraded... [01:59] I'm assuming it's trying to go from 13->14 [02:00] Am I able to upgrade HP's controller firmware from ubuntu, or do I need to boot to their live CD? It seems as though its just running a scexe file [02:00] I guess my crap is all screwed up, my guess is I have weechat installed for some reason that depends on a lib that has to be upgraded to work with the version of git-svn i'm trying to install [02:00] dependency mess [02:01] Although it specifies "installed" not upgraded... [02:01] nezZario: So apt is probably just walking the dependancies. I'd recommend finishing your upgrade. [02:02] Sigh...

[02:11] mini_iso-wireles: i dont think that comes with the wireless, but, sure.. you can always install, and move over what you need for wifi connection [02:11] you could download .debs on another box and move them over til you have wifi [02:13] holstein, how can i install 14.04 with the mini.iso if you say that the mini.iso does not support a wireless only installation. i repeat i do not have an ethernet connection. NO ethernet cable [02:13] holstein, how can i install 14.04 with the mini.iso if you say that the mini.iso does not support a wireless only installation. i repeat i do not have an ethernet connection. NO ethernet cable [02:13] mini_iso-wireles: you have *some* connection to the internet? correct? [02:14] mini_iso-wireles: you'll get the mini iso via that method.. then, install.. *then*, as i said, you go back to the method by which you obtained the iso, and download the deb's you need to facilitate a wifi connection on the new installtion [02:14] I keep getting an error when i try and connect a printer [02:15] it keeps saying "Printing service not vailable. Start the service on this computer or connect to another server [02:15] numbers: this is an upgrade?

[02:29] hello,how can I disable resolvconf? [02:32] when I set RESOLVCONF=yes in bind9 option,the /etc/resolv.conf file had been linked to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf and point the nameserver to 127.0.0.1 , how can I change it back and point nameserver to whatever I want. === Agent_Smith is now known as Guest2668 [02:40] b4ggi0: I'd recommend hooking into resolvconf; but if you'd prefer to revert to a simple /etc/resolv.conf, remove the symlink and create the file. [02:41] b4ggi0: according to the manpage for resolvconf, the symlink is created on package installation and left alone afterwards.

[03:15] Geo: From those running development installs I gather this (14.04) has been the smoothest release development yet. [03:15] chenqisuli: That likely depends on the settings in your BIOS. It may be configured to not respond to the keyboard. [03:15] Geo, There is a popup at the end on removing packages. [03:16] and another after that ;) [03:16] looks like its going now though [03:16] While that goes...

[03:23] chenqisuli: I understand. The settings in your BIOS may be preventing that. It might not respond to your keyboard. If your keyboard is connected to USB, you need to make your BIOS settings wake your computer up. [03:24] chenqisuli: You may be able to wake up your computer by hitting the Power button.

[03:42] Hello there! how can I get a bootable USB with windows 7 OS from ubuntu? [03:42] Ubuntu 12.04.4: eth0 is ipv4 plumbed/configured but the ipv6 address is not. I can configure the ipv6 address manually with ip -6 addr add ... "service networking status" shows status as stop/waiting Can never get this to be in a start state [03:43] yogesh: install 'winusb' [03:43] can't find anything in logs [03:43] lotuspsychje: No idea. Every GUI tool I've used for USB copying on any distro has been inferior to just dding it in terms of reliability. [03:43] lotuspsychje: therefore, I do not bother because I value things actually working over shiny interfaces === Mrokii_ is now known as Mrokii [03:43] rww: +1 [03:43] rww: nothing more clean from terminal :p [03:44] trying to figure out what's what .. service leads to start/stop/restart binaries which lead to initctl .. which leads to calling dbus. big blackhole for troubleshooting [03:44] log files just don't seem to capture anything [03:44] darius77: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-ipv6-networking-configuration/ [03:44] darius77: is this on a GUI system with network manager, or a server without? [03:44] rww: Fair question ;-) [03:45] yogesh: think you need the ppa add for winusb [03:45] rww: no gui - no /etc/init.d/network-manager [03:45] it's a server [03:45] darius77: what owh linked, then [03:46] someone knows a package to edit text on a pdf from ubuntu? [03:46] I don't think it's ipv6 though - "service networking status" still shows stop/waiting state when I remove ipv6 config [03:46] also - the link doesn't show you how to do dual-stack config [03:47] odd. Ipv6 seems to be broken in the 14.04 server net installer [03:47] lotuspsychje: Here are some suggestions: http://askubuntu.com/questions/162037/how-to-edit-pdfs and http://askubuntu.com/questions/72920/is-there-a-better-way-to-redact-a-pdf [03:47] hrm, that's odd. I thought my /etc/network/interfaces had an ipv6 section that I was going to copy to you, but it doesn't :\ [03:47] owh: tnx mate [03:47] lotuspsychje: No wukkas. [03:47] I have a working ipv6 config on a VM sitting right next to this one [03:48] lotuspsychje: does it work in ubuntu 14.04? I am getting E: Unable to locate package winusb [03:48] yogesh: as i said you need to add the winusb ppa [03:48] I was chasing ipv6 to start because not all of the network config with plumbing, but the service state seems to fail with or without ipv6 config [03:48] iface eth0 inet6 static address xxx netmask 64 gateway xxx [03:48] you can also do iface eth0 inet6 auto [03:49] my configuration for dual-stack has eth0 as inet and eth0:1 as inet6 [03:49] which works elsewhere [03:49] owh: that libreoffice-pdfimport looks a nice trick, tnx for link [03:50] the underlying problem seems to be that "service networking start" fails [03:50] never gets into state of start/running [03:50] darius77: Any errors in dmesg or syslog?

[03:53] is there a terminal command to launch software apps quickly [03:53] lotuspsychje: E: Unable to locate package winusb [03:53] like launch weechat or something [03:53] RubixRex: just type name of package from terminal, firefox or xchat [03:53] owh: anything I don't have to pay for? [03:54] RubixRex: Type: weechat[tab] and IIRC it will replace it with weechat-ncurses. [03:54] yogesh: and did the ppa add was successfully import key and such? [03:54] Pinkertin: Dunno.

[04:08] but I cannot make the bluetooth keyboard work properly [04:08] yogesh, works for me everytime I have needed to, yes [04:08] mlf: didnt test myself === shane is now known as Guest37670 [04:09] instead of upsplash (or whatever its called) just telling you there is a drive not setup why not give the option of setting it up [04:09] Beldar: did not get , I aksed if file type NTFS is must for FAT also works ? [04:10] robotdevil: Setting up a drive would require a user interface and user interaction, which would require access to keyboard/mouse etc. At the time of boot those modules are unlikely to be available. Mind you, I'm guessing. I don't know that this is the case. [04:10] yogesh, I don't know, why is this an issue?

Scrolling the terminal app is not ready IMO [04:13] lotuspsychje: I will. Thanks for the tip. [04:13] mlf: does scrolling work on desktop? [04:13] owh: yes just an idea lol. annoying to see. I figure it would be hard to implement [04:13] Beldar: okay [04:13] mlf: i hear trusty desktop on n7 needs keyboard and mouse to fully control [04:14] robotdevil: I'm trying to remember where the suggestion box is.

[04:24] do uuids ever change? cant figure out why ubuntu cant mount a drive I formatted [04:25] there is a mount point, and an entry in fstab [04:25] robotdevil: What is it telling you? [04:25] mount: can't find /dev/sdd in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [04:26] robotdevil: Are you trying to mount a drive or a partition on a drive? [04:26] whole drive is one partition [04:27] robotdevil: Does dmesg show that the drive is called what you think it's called? [04:28] robotdevil: does the fstab entry use the UUID or /dev/sdd? [04:29] dmesg | grep *sdd* [04:29] ? [04:29] robotdevil: I'd be grepping for usb, but yes. [04:30] * owh is assuming that this is an external drive. [04:30] no [04:30] sata internal [04:30] robotdevil: Then I'd grep -i sata [04:31] robotdevil: Also, what is the answer to the question that rww asked you? [04:33] uuid [04:33] then I don't think it's going to be able to match by device node path, is it? [04:33] try mount /mount/point/goes/here [04:33] and dmesg doesnt say anything about mount [04:34] robotdevil: Any errors in dmesg? We don't actually know if the drive is actually there. That is, it may have failed. [04:34] * owh is assuming that this used to work and isn't working at the moment. [04:35] its not failed [04:35] its there, looks like permissions might be wrong [04:35] robotdevil: Are you mounting it as root? [04:35] special device UUID=391d5f6d-ca64-464b-9a81-908a45a181dd does not exist [04:36] I setup on install but erased everything off and formatted with a partiton manager [04:36] robotdevil: At the moment you are assuming a whole lot of stuff. I'm trying to determine which of the assumptions is incorrect. I'd like to establish that dmesg can actually detect the drive before we start worrying about changed UUID's or permissions. [04:37] want a pastebin [04:37] robotdevil: Sure. [04:40] owh: so many drives, not sure how youll tell whats what [04:41] owh: I can see it in my partition manager, good enough? [04:41] robotdevil: What is the UUID? [04:44] yes its different, I think I might be able to get it now, if not ill be back [05:00] I am currently on 13.10, 32 bit. I want to upgrade, but also move to 64 bit. Is there an easy way? Or is the easy way to dump the system and load 64 bit? [05:01] jeffreyf_f: the only supported path, in fact, is dump and reinstall [05:02] rww: I'm surprised that you cannot do a dist-upgrade. [05:02] owh: note the architecture change. it's theoretically possible, but not supported here because it's a pain in the backside and not tested. [05:02] hey [05:02] :) [05:03] 13.10 -> 14.04 by itself is perfectly fine. i386 -> amd64 is not.

LOL [05:05] * owh punished the senses once, doing that on a server on the other side of the planet. It didn't end well. [05:06] jeffreyf_f: make sure you do backups first, feel free to try it but #ubuntu doesn't support it, and consider having a reinstall CD handy ahead of time ;) [05:07] rww: I have stuff backed up....Been there, lost files....Learned lesson.

[06:18] No [06:18] where can I get the 14.04 version [06:18] shramana: The instructions should be creating the deb for your version of your system. That's what the apt-get line does. [06:19] shramana: In the command the `uname -r` bit gets replaced by the kernel version you're running. [06:20] @owh, after running the apt-get command I see no deb file getting created [06:20] the steps clearly says download file [06:20] The setps are: download this file: http://jas.gemnetworks.com/debian/po...19-1_amd64.deb sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential dkms navigate to the folder you have saved the downloaded file and run this command. sudo dpkg -i wireless-bcm43142-dkms_6.20.55.19-1_amd64.deb sudo modprobe wl [06:24] shramana: Well, that's interesting.

I guess Ubuntu tries to be a little less like MS Windows. === Thubo is now known as Thubo|away [06:35] Pwnna: How are you doing? [06:35] it happens with chromium skype and vlc [06:36] vzewnrvahf: it is not a mess, but atleast drag and drop should be working [06:37] vzewnrvahf: drag and drop is working for files [06:37] but not for applications [06:38] vzewnrvahf: many times we just want to launch an application , direct from desktop, without searching and then clicking for an application, i hope you got my point [06:39] kanhiya: I received your 11:38:40 msg, although I was logged out for a few seconds before that === kevin is now known as Guest24681 === marvin is now known as Guest70681 [06:46] kanhiya: When I try dragging an application from search to the desktop, or to a folder in filemanager, I get - Error while copying.

[06:48] @owh, edited the connection details and added password instead of waiting for it to prompt for password where it was failing [06:48] now it is connecting to wireless automatically [06:48] there is some issue when selecting a network for first time, it is throwing up the libnm-glib error [06:48] the workaround is to edit the connection details via nm-applet [06:49] @ thanks a bunch for your support [06:49] shramana: I'd log a bug report and the work-around if I were you. [06:55] kanhiya: Dragging and dropping files from search to desktop works, so I'm guessing the side that's causing the error is the source of what to copy. When the cursor points to an application in search, it's not pointing at the .desktop file for that application, so the file location turns into "/" which causes an error. That's my guess. === james is now known as Guest53901 [06:55] vzewnrvahf: this was working well on 12.03 [06:56] 12.04* and these things must not happen [06:56] again [06:56] i mean, bugs must be vanished [06:56] bugs are appearing again, what launchpad engineers are doing??

[08:00] dave20: how did you revert to the free driver? [08:01] its the reason Im on 14 now? There was an open connection from java straight to google [08:02] and now this junk is back on here [08:02] robotdevil: what? do you have some conspirancy with java and google? [08:02] yeppers hahahha [08:02] m( [08:03] k1l_, via Additional Drivers, I just selected nouveau driver and clicked Apply [08:03] robotdevil: The connection is likely because you've got Chrome running, or you authenticated with a Google account and the java process that used it is still running. I cannot see a situation where Google and Oracle are colluding. Mind you stranger things have happened. At one point Apple and Microsoft were friends. Imagine that ;-) [08:04] no I just dont need java and when I uninstallled java from 13.10 connection broke and there was no open apps [08:04] forgot to strace [08:04] I dont use chrome [08:04] robotdevil, maybe chromium then [08:05] hahahaha no not it either [08:05] robotdevil: then just remove the java packages. but be aware that alot of stuff uses java and will not work afterwards [08:06] gmail account in your email client?

How do I change the screensaver to a nifty GL one, while still using the in-unity lockscreen in 14.04? [08:06] I searched screensaver in the launcher, can't find it in settings, and it doesn't seem to be hidden in the power or display settings either [08:07] Rory, you'll need to hand back your Ubuntu keys and install Windows. We don't allow questions like that here. [08:07] Rory, just kidding. [08:07] Rory, you should be able to set the screensaver in the system settings panel. [08:07] owh: yeah but what section? [08:08] I swear I remember being able to choose some natty 3d ones back in the day [08:08] Rory, that sounds odd, you mean you want both unity lock screen and a screensaver? [08:09] dave20: I want it to go to the unity lock screen after I jog the mouse to get out the screensaver [08:09] I'm not imagining this, I swear every ubuntu version I've been able to set a screensaver and then put my password in after [08:09] Rory: unity uses gnome-screensaver since some time. and not xscreensaver anymore [08:09] OK k1l_ so how do I configure gnome-screensaver? [08:10] i would say: in good gnome tradition there is no configuration :X [08:10] I am not a big fan of gnome-screensaver , purged and installed xscreensaver [08:10] Yeah but it has a fugly unlock diaglue [08:11] I don't think anybody is interested to help me... [08:11] Hello, I have to pc's next to each other sharing the same wifi network and one has low strength and very slow connection.Both linux os. [08:11] Rory, it seems that you can have any colour, as long as it's black. There are suggestions here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/292995/configure-screensaver-in-ubuntu [08:12] FakeBoost: Given the wavelength of WiFi, moving the computer 1 cm to the left or right might make all the difference. [08:12] ok.. [08:13] wow what a community :facepalm: [08:13] owh, I don't think it's a signal strength issue, maybe it's how its routed, subnet and all, do you know anything about it? [08:14] how can i make the apt-get command to list all broken packages ? [08:14] FakeBoost: You just told us that it has low strength. You cannot have it both ways. [08:14] dave20: you could pay someone to help you or dont rant about the volunteers in here. [08:15] FakeBoost: different network cards? === Ankur_ is now known as AnkurKhurana [08:16] k1l_, I know that everyone is a volunteer here, I have been helping people with Ubuntu for years now, and now when I need a simple help nobody cares... anyway let it be, I am sorry I have said that [08:16] silv3r_m00n: List or fix? [08:16] different cards, Madark [08:16] FakeBoost: that's the reason then [08:16] :-) [08:16] dave20 if nobody helps you, it means nobody has the answer to your question [08:17] FakeBoost: quite simply, 1 of your cards is inferior to the other [08:17] MonkeyDust, Ok [08:17] Madark: What a load of codswollop. [08:17] owh: nope [08:17] ok I am thinking about purging the nouveau driver, is that a good idea? [08:18] owh: just list [08:18] dave20: did you choose the nvidia driver again in additional drivers? and did you relogin afterwards? [08:18] owh: even minor differences in firmware can affect reported signal strength [08:18] dave20: which driver does lspci -vvv list? [08:18] k1l_, yes, I have rebooted quite a few times after that. [08:19] FakeBoost: Signal strength is a function of a signal to get between the sender and receiver. If they are not in the same place with the same antenna, the strength is going to be different. The wavelength of a 5.8GHz WiFi signal is 51mm. If there is concrete or rebar in the walls, you're likely to get a different result. If the signal strength is so low that communications is poor, it will affect the throughput. [08:19] I know, but they are next to each other. [08:20] k1l_, Kernel driver in use: nouveau [08:20] And when i disconnect the laptop, the other one connects, but very slow [08:20] owh [08:20] FakeBoost: I understand. One could be "hogging" the bandwidth. If you turn the good one off, does the bad one improve? [08:20] if i ssh into my sandbox with X forwarding in order to run CoolApp2k, will it be able to use that X forwarding to compromise the machine where ran the ssh client? [08:21] Yes, owh [08:21] So it might be some address conflict... [08:21] FakeBoost: it isn't [08:21] Sven_vB: Well, it shouldn't be able to do that, but I expect that if CoolApp2k does some funky stuff on your local X server, all bets are off. [08:22] owh, so it boils down to what X server exploits ship with CoolApp2k? [08:22] Sven_vB: Mind you, that's not a result of your x-forwarding, that's a result of X being drawn on your local server. [08:22] hi. how to find out which service is using which port? [08:22] Sven_vB: Yup. [08:23] krad: Where? === howto is now known as goeo_ [08:23] What's the command to chack wifi signal strength? [08:23] FakeBoost: I cannot tell from here. You'll have to investigate that. [08:23] check [08:31] FakeBoost: Did you actually try to move the computer? [08:31] I will, i have to unplug it and all... [08:31] But later. [08:31] k1l_, its "nvidia-current" ? === yokel_ is now known as yokel [08:31] look at what driver you installed there.

[08:32] silv3r_m00n: I suspect that if you did apt-get -f install it would prompt you to tell you what it was going to do. I don't know that for sure. [08:33] FakeBoost: hmm, is it just glass seperating you from the garden or something more substantial? [08:33] Yes, a wall with a window and a door... [08:33] Petazz: So, did you setup your locale? [08:33] FakeBoost: glass then [08:34] Oh, but how comes it doesnt affect this laptop?? [08:34] Madark? [08:34] I have a really good signal i this laptop.

[08:37] Petazz: I tend to fix one issue at a time. Did you start the server? [08:37] FakeBoost: the reasons people choose 5GHz, is because the 2.4GHz range, in cities, can be congested [08:37] I live in a small town. [08:37] Not many networks here. [08:37] Maybe 2 more [08:37] however in the suburbs or lesser, 2.4GHz can have better range [08:38] I'm on that range [08:38] now [08:38] FakeBoost: what's the signal strength? === zmanfx_ is now known as zmanfx [08:39] the reason i had to switch to 2.4GHz was because of a boiler and concrete piller between me and the router [08:39] *pillar [08:39] signal level on desktop 29/100 on laptop -57dbm === joshtau_ is now known as joshtau [08:40] FakeBoost: thats 7/100 better than previous, right?

[08:41] also, they removed it because 99% of firefox users never used it [08:42] Madark: Well, I could say that 100% of firefox users *used* to use it... [08:42] so? [08:42] Ben64: I searched "tabs below" but can't find anything useful [08:42] FakeBoost, do you know which card and driver you have in the problematic system?

[08:48] owh: yes, and i'm only 20m away from my router, a g card, wont cut it [08:48] Just location? [08:49] * owh wanders off to make a cup of something hot.

[10:27] Both are 8gb ones [10:27] Cholan: you have to select the usb device for installation, and also set the bootloader to install to the usb drive [10:28] There is two options 'Erase disk and INstall Ubuntu' and Something Else [10:29] I selected Something else [10:29] ciao [10:29] !list [10:29] elmatador: No warez here!

[11:42] no [11:42] 1 sec [11:44] touil76 reintall clean ubuntu 14.04 [11:45] touil76 reinstall clean ubuntu 14.04 [11:46] touil76: You don't have to reinstall 14.04!. I guess it's some old settings from the 12.04 installation for your user. [11:47] touil76;~ just logout? does shutdown go quick? [11:47] touil76: I would create a new user and check whethter that account is working ok with logout. maybe the GuestSession will even be enough. [11:47] Yes, shutdown is quick. [11:47] Just the logout process takes a long time. [11:48] sudo apt-get autoclean :) [11:49] I'm going to try to create a new user. === giovanni is now known as Guest65327 [11:51] touil76 terminal sudo apt-get autoclean [11:52] by the way, using just a text session (ctrl+alt+f1), login and logout are superfast [11:53] Hi all!

[11:56] Festour: and linux-firmware-nonfree? [11:57] Dreadlish: i dont know what that mean, sorry :(. Just, after fresh install Ubuntu 14.04, i found what my network card not running, no wifi, no lan [11:58] Well, news for the loggout process : logout when connected as a guest is super fast. [11:58] Dreadlish: other guy here say me what i do find already compilled in deb package for my ubuntu [11:58] Dreadlish: but, i cant find :( === the_bz is now known as bezet_ [11:59] Dreadlish: that can help me? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1420901 === bezet_ is now known as the_bz [11:59] mina [12:00] touil76;~ see my previous message [12:00] philinux: I'm trying it. [12:00] Festour: firmware is in those packages [12:01] No, I usually listen to project http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/ It's an ultra short wave project. [12:01] Festour: i don't really remember in which, but in one of those two [12:01] Nothing is written in the terminal. [12:01] Dreadlish: but, how i can install it? [12:02] Dreadlish: just extract in folder and reboot? [12:02] Festour: nope, install the package. [12:02] Festour: Hi. Can you do 'lsmod | grep iw' in a console. check if you see 'iwlwifi' or 'iwlagn'. Are you sure that a possible hardware switch for wifi is in position 'on'? [12:03] philinux : logout process is over and nothing has been written in the terminal. [12:04] touil76;~ was it still as slow? [12:04] Oh yes! [12:04] minimec: i dont see iwlifi anyway, i have try it with other gui, and he say what maybye driver cant run in ubuntu, then i need reinstall or install other driver for my network [12:04] minimec: and i dont have hardware swith in my laptop [12:06] touil76;~ to expedite i would just create a new admin user [12:07] Ok. But how can I keep my files without moving them for the new user ? [12:07] touil76;~ i was about to suggest moving any important data to the new user [12:08] touil76;~ i have all mine on a separate data partition [12:08] Well, it's a huge pack. [12:08] touil76;~ backup to usb stick first [12:08] Any other advice ? [12:09] It would take too long. [12:09] touil76: I guess the desktop config for your user is borked. I would logout and try the following in a terminal console logged in as that user: 'mv .config .config-bak' 'mv .compiz .compiz-bak' 'mv .gnome2 .gnome2-bak'. That will rename the most important configurationi folders and should give you a new clean session. [12:10] touil76;~ and i hope you do backups regularly [12:10] ch [12:10] Yes of course philinux, it's just lazyness ! [12:11] touil76;~ in my experience hard drives do fail [12:11] I know. My important data are stored on 3 different hard disks + dvd + cloud. [12:12] difference between xinetd,d and init,d? [12:12] I can confirm that with a newly created user, logout is superfast. [12:12] I'm going to try your advice minimec [12:12] touil76;~ try minimecs advice. use copy and paste for those commands [12:13] hey everyone, is there a way to add a user to the sudoers list via a specific group (like sudo ) without to add to /etc/sudoers? [12:14] touil76: Last advice would be to 'mv' the old user folder and create a new clean one with the same name. --> http://askubuntu.com/questions/43584/how-to-reset-main-user-account/43589#43589 [12:15] Festour: can you do 'rfkill list' in a terminal once? [12:16] new0 sudo visudo [12:17] new0 don't ruin that file, copy/backup it first [12:17] MonkeyDust, tnx. can u give me an example? [12:17] MonkeyDust, which file? [12:17] new0 of what? [12:17] MonkeyDust, like sudo visudo a-user [12:18] new0 no, open a terminal, then type sudo visudo [12:18] MonkeyDust, when i am logged with that user? [12:18] hey guys, i've been installing ubuntu minimal 14.04 and it keeps failing on the Install GRUB boot loader section [12:18] new0 if you have to asj those questions, you shouldnt continue [12:18] i get fatal error there [12:18] new0: add the user to the "sudo" group so that he can sudo. You don't need to use visudo or edit /etc/sudoers [12:19] executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed [12:19] any ideas? :/ [12:19] Minimec, you're a genius, after applying your first advice, now i can logout in less than 2 seconds. [12:20] Thank you very much. [12:20] jrib, that what i did. but still give me username is not in the sudoers file.... [12:20] touil76: No problem. [12:20] :-) [12:20] cmooon gruuuub [12:20] MonkeyDust, i am just trying to be cuasion and also. i kind of new to this. (more on windws) [12:21] hi [12:21] new0 be cautious by not changing user persmissions, if you don't know what you're doing [12:21] MonkeyDust, right :) . this is why i am asking to make sure [12:22] MonkeyDust, anyway not sure how to use what u gave me [12:22] new0 then don't and leave it alone [12:23] MonkeyDust, i got to install some packages [12:23] new0: you need to log in again for it to take effect [12:23] Grrr, I thought the problem was solved too early. [12:23] It worked only for the first logout ! [12:23] new0 and what goes wrong if you try? [12:25] touil76: If it happens now, that some of your applications 'lost' the configuration and setup you did, you might have to copy the configuration folder for that app from .config-bak to .config... Obvious... isn't it? [12:25] jrib, do what? plz i am very terible as explaining my self that sometime i am sound like a troll BUT I AM NOT [12:25] Sorry minimec, what do you mean ? [12:25] Does anyone have any recommended reading for becoming comfortable with Ubuntu? [12:26] MonkeyDust, i am not affriad to try . the Q is what to try and HOW [12:26] new0: if you added a user to a group, then you need to log in again with that user [12:26] new0 what do you want to do or achieve? [12:26] jrib, got ya. tnx [12:26] I'm not a total noob, but my experience is limited to RHEL from a few years ago.

With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [12:27] touil76: Well If you go to your .config-bak folder now, you will find a lot of configuration folders for apps like Skype, Rhythmbox, Nautilus, Chromium and so on... Maybe you want to keep the configuration for these programs. So copy that folder over to .config... [12:28] MonkeyDust, let me tell u story. after some problemsss i created new user because i couldn't use mine (setting GUI problem). the new user can't do a thing. install or any sudo procedure! but i want (NEED) it [12:28] Minimec, that's what I thought you meant. But how do you explain that the logout has gone slow again ? [12:28] MonkeyDust, got me? [12:29] Any recommendations for learning utilities? [12:29] or scripting? [12:29] Leires http://www.linuxine.com/linuxbooks [12:29] Leires: #bash see links there, especially bash hackers wiki and wooledge bash wiki [12:30] touil76: 12.04 used a different version of the unity desktop, and some 'old config stuff' caused logout problems in the new unity version. That might have been a panel applet you added or so...

Using network_manager, I can see the router and try to connect, but it keeps asking authentication (password) - the password I use is correct. I've tried the same with a different machine, and it's working fine. I've been at it for a few hours now, to no avail. Any suggestions are welcome. [13:39] ok [13:39] Are you talking about WiFi? [13:39] tcu99: yes [13:40] hi [13:40] tcu99: connecting using ethernet cable is working well. [13:40] yes1: can you pring your router and if so can you login to it [13:40] im back at least [13:40] h_hauck_: please us the #ubuntu-offtopic channel for chat.. what happens when trying to open "documents"? [13:40] yes1: look at the auth type you set when you log into it [13:40] bzz computer is dark [13:40] whoever: I'm unable to ping the router since I'm unable to connect to it. But using an ethernet cable, I'm able to ping and login to it. [13:40] like a cookie :( [13:41] yes1: both network [13:41] yes1: do you know the ip of your router [13:41] yes1: both network_manager and the router are using the same auth scheme. [13:41] Router??? [13:41] hey guys im trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 and something weird is happening. It only gives me the option to install INSIDE and not ALONGSIDE Windows 7, and it sends me back to windows 7 after i select this option. Any idea what to do? [13:41] h_hauck_ go the #ubuntu-offtopic [13:41] yes1: can you pring your router from the other computer [13:41] whoever: Basically, I can see my router using wifi, but cannot connect. [13:41] and also i like turtles [13:42] h_hauck_: If you haev a support question, ask it on one line and then wait for a response. Do not flood this channel with nonsense. === sbremner is now known as stevie_b [13:42] legrandin do NOT use the "inside windows" option. that's wubi - well-intentioned but fatally flawed testing method [13:42] legrandin: you can always manually partition.. [13:42] h_hauck: Nobody is interested in your turtles [13:42] yes1: did you unknowingly blacklist that box [13:42] yeah i know howlett, so i have to manually partition?

[13:43] h_hauck_: what specifically happens when trying to open "documents" ? [13:43] legrandin manual paritioning would do the trick [13:43] bzz computer is dark [13:43] like a cookie :( [13:43] yes1: i had a simler connection issue, and it turned out i was useing aes on the box and tpk on the router [13:43] h_hauck_ send a screenshot [13:43] that is why i am assuming that you just have a setting issue [13:43] whoever: I'll doublecheck now, just in case. [13:44] yes1: you could alway save your config of the router, then reset it and try to connect [13:44] whoever: It's sad, but I think that's the way to go. [13:45] whoever: I might have to do that. But I'll try a few things first [13:45] yes1: is your subnet correct [13:45] whoever: yes [13:45] why are default sources on a fresh install returning a 404 error? [13:45] ok, then save config and reset [13:45] Noiro: networking issues?

[14:03] Aaruni: tried renaming your vlc configuration folder then rerunning to get vanilla settings? [14:03] ok, no [14:03] its my fault [14:04] sorry [14:05] BTW, holstein, did you manage to solve that other, soundconvertor problem? [14:05] Aaruni: i think you are thinking of someone else.. i have no sound converter issues [14:06] holstein, no, you were helping me with soundconverter issues. it not accepting video files under 14.04LTS [14:06] holstein, remember this bug report ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/soundconverter/+bug/1312820 [14:06] Launchpad bug 1312820 in soundconverter (Ubuntu) "soundconverter no longer takes video input" [Undecided,New] [14:06] Aaruni: oh.. i vaguely remember that.. you'll have to remind me where we are [14:07] and, why we are doing video conversion with a sound converter ;) [14:07] holstein, you got me to convert video from one format to another using avconv [14:07] Aaruni: i remember trying to isolate if the issue was in the backend, or in sound converter.. [14:08] Aaruni: were you able to? with avconv? did you contact the developers of sound converter? [14:08] holstein, avconv worked just fine, converting video from one format to another [14:08] didn't contact developers yet, issue not very important [14:10] Aaruni: somewhere upstream will be the "best" way to get this addressed.. [14:10] i'll attach myself to the bug.. since i confirmed it as well [14:10] thanks, holstein :) [14:12] laptop over heating with ubuntu14.04 because of open source display driver form amd radean hd4000 card [14:14] holstein, I just confirmed that issue is with soundconvert, and not with gstreamer [14:15] ashish_: you can try the propriatary ones.. have you? the open source drivers are doing what they can.. if the devices dont support linux well, it can be challenging [14:15] Does anyone know of a guide to disable the unity effects. i mainly vnc into my headless sytem and the animations and effects in unity lag significantly [14:16] hopefully without the need for gnome-flashback [14:16] Kamaris, install ccsm [14:16] holstein, propriatary drivers was supported till 12.04 which i was using till now. now it doesnt support latest kernel and xorg as i found in google. [14:17] ashish_: there will be a proprietary driver in the repos.. is that the one that doesnt support your device? [14:17] Kamaris easiest: use a different desktop manager: kde, xfce4 come to mind [14:17] holstein, as amd stopped upgrading driver for 4000series. [14:17] holstein, no propriatary showing in repo [14:18] ashish_: ok.. you can ask them to provide, but, they may be letting support for the unit go.. [14:18] ashish_: you can try the vesa driver.. [14:18] holstein, can u tell how to install vesa? [14:18] ashish_: you dont.. its already installed [14:18] Kamaris, sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager [14:19] ashish_: you can use http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1270209 and put it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf "as-is", not bothering with the resolution [14:19] holstein, pls tell what i need to do. the keyborad is too hot to touch after installing 14.04 [14:20] ashish_ the KEYBOARD is hot to the touch? I call shenanigans. [14:20] ashish_: i suggest you just test with the resolution as is, and see if the overheating issue is addressed.. i would make sure all the fans are working, and the unit is clean of any hair or dust [14:20] Kamaris, http://www.howtogeek.com/101006/how-to-tweak-unity-on-ubuntu-with-the-compizconfig-settings-manager/ [14:21] cfhowlett, yess its getting very hot [14:21] holstein, all fand all clean and working. that i have alreasdy checked [14:22] ashish_: you can look in the bios, etc.. if the unit is running hot on the bios screen, then there is not much you can do about it [14:22] hi [14:23] holstein, sorry for asking. i am not aware of it. can u please tell what i need to check in bios? [14:23] holstein, also is this prob can be resolved with another DE like lxde? === cryptosolution is now known as mirelle [14:24] ashish_: your bios is just that.. differnt from ever other model [14:25] ashish_: you check literally anything that you might find relevant.. and, let it sit there on the bios screen and see if it gets hot.. if its hot on the bios screen, then you can have bad/broken hardware issues [14:25] my sound icon is missing, how can i restore that? [14:25] incidcator-sound already installed [14:25] ashish_: you should try lxde.. but, your hardware is what it is.. i find not require 3d can help.. but, you just dont know what the root cause of the issue is [14:26] holstein, means i need to reboot the system and keep the system in bios setting? === josh is now known as Guest76337 [14:26] ashish_: there is not "need" here, friend.. its all about troubleshooting.. you were never promised linux support, so you just have to test and figure out what is going on [14:26] Anyone on 14 yet? [14:26] Is it awesome? [14:26] holstein, in ubuntu12.04 also i had same prob but after installing propar. driver its file [14:26] ashish_: yes.. 14.04 has been out for a while [14:27] ashish_: ok.. so that tells us something.. 12.04 is still supported.. consider using it [14:27] am0nrahx|work: 14.04 has been out for a while ^ [14:27] holstein, i just now found that out. I've been far too busy lol [14:27] am0nrahx|work if you have a specific technical support question - ask. [14:27] okkk. i will try to find out the reason and if didnt get any solution i have to go back to 12.04 [14:28] holstein, thanks for support [14:29] holstein, i have one more issue. i installed gnome desktop in ubuntu14.04. i m using unity but when i swith user it goes to gnome desktop always. if i remove gnome, it fails to login with other user accounts [14:29] what does ubuntu use now instead of synaptic? [14:29] for package installation [14:29] raj apt [14:29] !apt [14:29] APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.

[14:30] raj ubuntu software center [14:31] ah [14:31] thank you [14:31] raj, better use synaptic, ubuntu software center or command line for apt, dgebi if u have deb package [14:31] ashish_ dpkg for .deb please [14:32] cfhowlett, dpkg from command line but we can use gdebi as gui [14:32] cfhowlett, please correct if i m wrong [14:33] ashish_ as I understand it, .deb can be processed through ubuntu software center - though I've never done so myself. command line works for me. [14:34] cfhowlett, i use command line dpkg. another great app is gdebi for installing deb package which can also download dependencies [14:36] holstein, i have one more issue. i installed gnome desktop in ubuntu14.04. i m using unity but when i swith user it goes to gnome desktop always. if i remove gnome, it fails to login with other user accounts [14:36] holstein, can u pls help in this. i have not found any solution of it till now [14:41] hi. how do i report a bug of ubuntu installation?

[15:00] Hi all, I have recently reinstalled my computer with Ubuntu 14.04 after moving of Mint 14 and now when I play some of my music through Rhythmbox there is a loud crackle to it. It's only a select few and it has nothing to do with the audio files as they were working fine in Mint. They are also hight quality? === soee_ is now known as soee [15:01] Bluewolf: have you tried messing with the different volume options, alsa and pulseaudio? [15:01] Bluewolf installed restricted-extras (codecs?) [15:04] junixbr: in Grub, when grub loads [15:05] junixbr: why do you want to boot to this mode? [15:05] ActionParsnip, because I need to run some tests in framebuffer mode [15:05] sdl programming [15:05] cfhowlett, I have installed Restricted Extras. Other audio files are working fine. [15:05] junixbr: I see, cool stuff [15:06] =) [15:06] junixbr: why not boot normally and then ctrl+alt+f1 and sudo service lightdm stop [15:06] Slart_, did you try it in 14.04? [15:06] it doesn't work [15:06] at least for me [15:06] junixbr: what part doesn't work for you? [15:07] I have no prompt after disable lightdm [15:07] Slart_: No I haven't, not sure what alsa and pulseaudio are. It seems that the problem has something to do with Rhythmbox as other media playes dont have a problem. [15:07] http://pastebin.com/Zcqb48w8 [15:07] junixbr: hmm.. ok let me try.. but it will kill my session here..

How can I remove it so I can change it to Windows 8.1?

[15:12] err [15:12] This once computer has ubuntu on it and cannot figure out how to remove it [15:12] junixbr: ok, that worked.. although I had to stop gdm instead of lightdm.. and I had to press ALT+F1 one extra time after stopping gdm [15:13] Slart, ahmmm [15:13] I have never even heard of Ubuntu until now [15:13] d7dozer: are you perhaps German? [15:13] No, American [15:13] 14.04 with gdm? [15:13] Bluewolf: try running alsamixer in a terminal and try changing settings around while playing something that makes bad audio [15:13] here is lightdm [15:13] d7dozer: just thought this "once" was a typo... ok, well [15:13] d7dozer install windows. done. [15:13] junixbr: 14.04 with gnome shell.. but regular ubuntu install.. then switched to gnome [15:13] Its not letting me [15:14] cfhowlett: it's not always that easy. [15:14] d7dozer "It's"??? [15:14] junixbr: I probably installed gdm when I switched to gnome shell [15:14] Slart, ow ok.. but with lightdm is not working for me, but it's ok, I can use textmode now =) [15:14] thank you ActionParsnip, Slart [15:14] junixbr: ah.. anything that works is good =) [15:14] Normally it does that with other programs but this Ubuntu does not even give me the option [15:14] d7dozer: we need error message or any other explanations why you can't install windows.

[15:17] Oh, that is the little battery on the inside of the computer on the motherboard, right? [15:17] yea [15:18] take a screwdriver and take it out carefully not to empty it with your fingers while grabbing them [15:19] d7dozer, if that pc has got an EFI bios, maybe it is not removable. check in ##hardware [15:20] The computer is a HP [15:20] d7dozer www.hp.com has manuals specific to your device.

So is not a sound fix [15:28] ActionParsnip, http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=b493ad3b969a6c7d81511e55ec2d6f2d2f5e3a1f [15:28] ActionParsnip, somehow i got my ubuntu-desktop package removed, and then i installed it, i had almost no icon in system settings [15:28] ActionParsnip, they're back, but the indicator is still missing [15:29] Ive been stuck with this problem for a couple days now, does anyone know why a bash script will run from terminal but not as a keyboard shortcut?

[15:32] kostkon, yes [15:32] Anyone know why a bash script runs from terminal but same command as a keyboard shortcut doesn't work? [15:32] MadLamb, then there's now an option to hide the indicator in the sound settings. [15:33] endaras: how do you run it from a keyboard shortcut? do you run bash/gnome-terminal or something as well or just the script? [15:33] endaras: perhaps it's being run in dash instead of bash which has a more limited syntax [15:33] atm it's just the absolute path to the script [15:33] i tried using bash [15:34] kostkon, thanks, that worked [15:34] MadLamb, ;) [15:34] endaras: there are parameters to start run bash with a certain script.. something like -X iirc.. check man bash for the specifics [15:37] Slart i can't seem to find that [15:37] !ops [15:37] Help!

[16:45] [Slart]: yes [16:45] now my nload display 43 as max usage [16:45] cacti only 9mbps usage [16:45] something wrong here [16:46] i dont have win 8 and i found wubi for 14.04 [16:46] and I think it's not the nload is wrong [16:46] jobarte: isn't amount transfered more interesting? I don't even know how to define what the max value is... maximum bandwidth per second? per minute? per nanosecond? these things might give you wildly different values [16:46] I think he means usage as in what is using x,y,z traffic? [16:47] link needs login [16:47] can anybody tell me whats the purpose of tasksel? [16:47] hey guys, looking for some help. i upgraded my laptop to 14.04 and when my laptop restarted, it gave me a kernel panic with the error about failing to sync. however, I am able to boot into an older kernel no problem [16:47] jobarte: I just think that the developers made different choices when it comes to this.. nload guys did one thing while cacti made another decision. [16:48] vim/xterm problem. Seems to be a problem with the terminfo settings on xterm.. If iset "export TERM=screen" the problem goes away. [16:48] [Slart]: I need to measure maximum bandwidth because today I use EC2 [16:48] and I will transfer my app to private cloud with dedicated link [16:49] then I need to know link demand of my app [16:49] jobarte: what is maximum bandwidth then? amount transfered per second? per minute? per cpu tick? I don't think you're being charged by maximum bandwidth without more information [16:49] and I do not trust the amazon measure tools [16:50] amount transfered per second [16:50] jobarte: and vnstat can't give you that? [16:51] jobarte: vnstat might be helpful [16:51] vnstat measure only total data transfered, not maximum bandwidth [16:51] it shows min/max bandwidth [16:52] just not a graph of bw/time [16:52] example, on this hou my app out 29Gb data [16:52] *hour [16:53] sec [16:53] but on this hour vnstat dont show for me if maximum bandwidth was 30mbps or 70mbps [16:53] it does [16:53] [Elfuego]: how? [16:53] sec i need to login and pull it up [16:54] okay :) [16:54] jobarte, Elfuego: the live output shows max and min.. haven't gathered enough data for the other stuff to display yet === bfiller is now known as bfiller_afk [16:55] I know you can make it display it because ive odone it before [16:55] Its something like vnstat -i eth0 and it should show tx/rx max/min === whiskers75 is now known as ^west [16:56] live will also show max/min === ^west is now known as whiskers75 [16:57] hmmm [17:02] jobarte: it seems vnstat works the same way as snmp/cacti does.. reads the counters at a certain interval [17:03] urghhh. i added ppa:n-muench/vlc because it was said to have VLC 2.0 for ubuntu 11.10. after i did that i do sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade but it tells me all packages are up to date. well that's not true because my vlc still shows as version 1.1 ... wtf?! [17:03] jobarte: perhaps iptraf can do something? [17:04] iptraf show only to display too [17:04] equal nload [17:04] jobarte: iptraf has logging.. that doesn't work? [17:04] worse is that I don't know if anyone is wrong or is nload or cacti [17:05] jobarte: cacti doesn't do maximum for each second the way you wanted it.. [17:05] Anden, i'm guessing there isn't a package for it on that ppa because 11.10 is eol [17:05] !eol [17:05] End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [17:06] well did they remove the package? that's just mean [17:06] jobarte: most of the stuff I've seen measures bandwidth per minute or per hour or so.. which I honestly feel is more interesting.. bandwidth usage every second seems like something you ask for when you don't really know what you want to do with it [17:06] because obviously it used to be there [17:06] [Slart]: probally a cacti bug? [17:06] as i find 10-20 tutorials telling me to use that ppa [17:06] I thought I'd test the observium also [17:07] Ok still can't figure this out, why can i run an executable script from terminal but not as a keyboard shortcut, script works as intended, is executable, has proper permissions yadda yadda [17:07] anything like SmoothVideo Project on ubuntu? [17:07] jobarte: not sure if it's a bug or just designed that way.. I think most people are more interested in amount of bytes transfered or perhaps bandwidth per minute but not per second [17:08] Anden, you need to upgrade to a supported version [17:08] yeah but i dont want to. i've tweaked this install so much [17:08] dont wanna start all over [17:08] endaras: what kind of keyboard shortcut are you creating? I just created a small script with the gnome keyboard shortcut thingy and that worked [17:08] Anden, i mean do an upgrade not a clean install [17:08] yeah i realise you can do that but isn't there a big risk it will get messed up? [17:09] yeah im using the gnome keyboard shortcut [17:09] [Slart]: I can also be wrong === zequence_ is now known as zequence [17:09] I may be measuring the wrong way [17:09] keyboard -> shortcuts -> custom shortcuts [17:09] endaras: yes.. that's the one I used.. do you have that pastebin link again? [17:10] how can I install the s16l codec in Ubuntu 14.04 ? [17:10] Slart : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7380297/ [17:10] Anden, i wouldn't call it a big risk, but an OS upgrade is always a risky business, regardless of the OS [17:10] Slart something worth noting is that i used chmod on the "/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness" file [17:10] so i could echo into it [17:11] yeah. well i dont wanna take that risk for one program. so you're basically telling me i should've gotten the package earlier while it was still available? [17:11] without sudo [17:11] anyone know what "button" scroll up is or how to find that out? [17:11] how can I change the default system font in gnome 3? even after gnome-tweak-tool, the title fonts are unchanged === debsan__ is now known as debsan [17:12] endaras: let me try it on my system.. see if I can get it to work [17:12] ok thanks Slart, you probably know you'll need to change the path for the brightness file [17:13] if you're not using intel [17:13] Anden, no I'm telling you to upgrade because your install has stopped receiving security updates and it's too old already === tcpman is now known as Guest55344 [17:13] endaras: I just removed all the brightness stuff and just kept the echo line.. that's a reasonable start =) [17:14] endaras: ok, it worked on my system.. created the log file and all [17:14] Anden, you can directly upgrade to 12.04 which has 3 years of support left [17:14] kostkon: yeah well that will have to be some other day when i have time to clone my disk in case it gets messed up. right now i just want vlc2 really quickly so i can watch my bluray [17:14] Slart: :S yeah i figured it wasn't a problem with the script, more to do with the keyboard shortcuts, but I have no idea why they wouldn't be working [17:14] endaras: this is the script I used.. set it to executable.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7380838/ [17:15] kostkon: browsing the ppa in http i can see a directory called oneiric so looks like he hasn't removed it after all? [17:15] but then apt-get should find it too [17:16] endaras: could it be erroring out earlier in the script? try putting the echo thing at line two.. see if that helps [17:17] cannot create packetizer output (s16l) [17:17] Anden, sudo apt-get update adn then apt-cache policy vlc [17:17] can someone please help? [17:18] vlc: Installed: 1.1.12-2~oneiric1 Candidate: 1.1.12-2~oneiric1 [17:18] Anden, you can always download it source and compile it [17:18] Kreuger: maybe ... you never know when you don't ask about what you want help with [17:18] its* [17:18] kostkon: i thought it would come to that, hehe [17:18] kostkon: i guess it might be worth it... [17:18] kostkon: if it doesnt take too long :D [17:19] Slart: same problem with your script, running it from terminal or running from gui works, running as a keyboard shortcut doesn't [17:19] Anden, unfortunately it ahs come to that yeah [17:19] endaras: nothing in /var/log/syslog? [17:19] I mentioned my issue a few mins ago. I upgraded to 14.04 and got a kernel panic failing to sync. Yet I can boot just fine into an older kernel [17:19] Slart: i'll try moving the test echo but the script does work perfectly from terminal [17:19] endaras: I am running Gnome shell.. not sure if that makes a difference [17:19] kostkon: alright thanks for the help [17:20] Anden, np [17:21] endaras: and you're not using a weird keyboard combo that is already taken? [17:21] Slart: nah I thought that might be the problem so i've tried a number of wierd ones, ctrl alt H etc. [17:22] Hi can someone help me with ubuntu and rsyslog? [17:22] endaras: if you set the command to just gnome-terminal does that work? (it does on my system) [17:22] Sorry Kreuger , guess i missed that question from a "few minutes ago" ... [17:23] its all good. [17:23] endaras: or any reasonable app.. gedit, gnome-terminal are just examples [17:23] Slart: nope gnome-terminal doesn't work either [17:23] Slart: seems the custom shortcuts just don't work at all === gnu is now known as Guest23832 [17:24] Slart: for some reason I have a feeling that ubuntu might want a reboot to assign the shortcuts [17:24] endaras: well.. that saves us a lot of bash troubleshooting.. but now I don't really know where to search any more.. [17:25] Slart: i'll try the turn it off and on again [17:25] hi. I did a boot-repair and: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7380867/ [17:25] endaras: for what it's worth the shortcuts work straight away here [17:25] what should I do? [17:25] Kreuger: But if you are asking about that kernel panic in your question from an half hour ago, I only can recommend you to do a clean install of 14.04 after you do a backup of your personal files .... === AChemeris_ is now known as Guest60930 [17:25] endaras: give it a try [17:25] how does one do xmodmap to map shift + function key? [17:25] I might as well go back to Windows for all the bullshit Ubuntu has caused over the last few yrs. [17:26] I'm using 14.04 with dual boot on windows. I restarted on windows and when I got back to ubuntu, it won't boot. [17:26] Yeah ... Kreuger ... because windows doesn't give any bullshit ever ... we all know :-) [17:26] Hi can someone help me with ubuntu and rsyslog? [17:26] davividal: error messages? what happens when you try? [17:26] Slart: lol it worked [17:27] endaras_: it needed a reboot? that was it? [17:27] hello ! [17:27] Its not the point. If Im gonna have to reinstall it, I might as well not bother to customize anything which is my biggest use for Ubuntu. [17:27] Slart: when I try... ? To boot ubuntu? http://askubuntu.com/questions/451818/ubuntu-14-04-call-trace [17:27] Slart: not sure why but yeah the keyboard shortcuts don't get implemented until ubuntu restarts [17:27] endaras_: that's insane.. well.. at least it works now [17:27] in ubuntu 14.04 if im trying to make permanent bash alias should i use .bash_aliases or .bashrc? [17:28] rawrmonster: .bashrc or you can source .bash_aliases in .bashrc and put them there [17:28] xente: ok ty :D [17:28] Slart: this is in 13.10 so maybe it was fixed [17:28] Slart: it's not *exactly* that. I took a picture, if it helps [17:28] rawrmonster: np [17:28] davividal: no idea... I can't even really see what the problem is.. sorry [17:28] Slart: but ty for all the help [17:28] endaras_: you're welcome [17:29] o_O irssi pinged me and i can't see where i got pinged [17:29] why 12.04 comes with kernel 3.13 ?? That kernel version is not LTS (is already EOL, see https://www.kernel.org/). Wouldn't have made more sense to ship 3.12 instead? [17:29] Kreuger: I only can recommend to use a seperate /home partition and not format it with a re-install ... then many personal changes are saved [17:29] Rad-: from what I can see it wasn't from this channel.. pm perhaps? [17:29] Itd be easier to just delete the kernel that isnt working from grub and try and deal with the other issue Im having [17:30] !12.04 [17:30] Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is the current !LTS release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1204 [17:30] Kreuger: True [17:30] LTS? [17:30] I thought 14.04 is LTS [17:30] Rad-: they are both LTS [17:30] Kreuger: ask yourself ... what benefit does the new kernel give you [17:30] sorry.. I mean 14.04 [17:30] Rad-: but it shouldn't say *the* current LTS =) [17:31] yeah maybe. i'm just trying to figure out why ubuntu isn't rsyslog-ing properly. honestly, i think it's PEBKAC =[ [17:31] lol Slart [17:31] hey guys is it possible to run indesign/ anything indesignesque on latest ubuntu? [17:31] the other issue Im having is that in the working kernel, I can boot to the login screen and then login but my trackpad has stopped responding. It has always worked out of the box so I dont understand what happened [17:31] basiclaser: what's indesign [17:31] basiclaser: there's always !wine and !vm but if you ask me you should run windows software on windows.. [17:32] basiclaser: i VM all my window stuff [17:32] Hey is for htop in tree mode is there a way to collapse all trees by default? [17:33] how does one do xmodmap to map shift + function key? [17:33] Sorry Kreuger ... can't help you with that ... Is there any info when you search in the output of dmesg? [17:33] Is ubuntu 14.04 really suppose to be stable at the moment. I do notice big speed improvements but i keep having the unity search function freeze and i get a send bug report menu appear. This is a fresh install of ubuntu 14.04 as of last night. I am fully updated as well [17:33] I hadnt thought of that. Let me reboot and give it a shot. [17:35] xente, good question. If you run xev in terminal you'll able to see. [17:36] zzxc: found this.. doesn't look promising https://github.com/hishamhm/htop/issues/24 [17:36] Hey I messed up and removed all the config files to my trackpad. [17:36] zzxc: I can see which key codes they use when I run xev, but how does one combine the shift key plus the key code of the function key? [17:36] rawrmonster: The release of 14.04 was on April 17th. So it is considered to be stable - but (as all software on this planet) not to be bug free. [17:36] lol TacoTacos [17:36] so open up a virtual terminal and get em back [17:37] I can't they are gone [17:37] .... [17:37] I tried generating a new xorg [17:37] open [17:37] up [17:37] a [17:37] virtual [17:37] terminal [17:37] Rad- you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted === UKn0Meh is now known as UKn0Me [17:37] Slart: Yeah thats not promising. A well. good to know I'm not just missing something obvious though. [17:37] bekks: ahh ok i guess i jumped the gun a little to early. But other than that one issue it seems to be an amazing release. I really like it for all the speed boosts from 12.04 lol [17:37] zzxc: I agree with you though.. I also want a key for that.. [17:38] zzxc: not that it helps you, but still =) [17:38] load /home/fritz/Downloads/xdcc-client.pl [17:38] you don't even need xorg to fix that TacoTacos [17:39] i'm not sure if it's called virtual terminal i forget, but you can use the ctrl+alt+number [17:39] i believe [17:39] It was in the xorg.config.d [17:39] xente: Sorry looks like I gave you the wrong tool for the usecase. Sorry I can't remeber right off how it handles that. [17:39] and you can have a shell you can install/uninstall stuff from mate [17:39] zzxc: thanks, tho [17:39] I'm using Ubuntu 14.04, and every time I use 'Alt' in Gnome-Terminal (for Emacs meta) I get a 'Command' prompt. I don't want that prompt. I've looked around in Gnome Terminal and System keyboard preferences, and I can't find any KB shortcut for Alt by itself. How can I disable this unwanted feature? [17:40] Slart: Haha, Well I can always just do a git pull request for it. But I would need the time to do that, which I currently don't have. [17:40] Hello can anyone help me with my ubuntu? [17:40] What package has the trackpad files? [17:40] codmadnesspro_: Possible? [17:40] Err check this http://prntscr.com/3fi5mq [17:40] i installed the gui and tightvnc and its got no desktop for sum reason [17:41] hi [17:41] .info [17:42] do you know what the problem is? [17:42] http://prntscr.com/3fi5mq [17:42] codmadnesspro_: You appear to have a terminal window open. [17:42] yea === daninoz_ is now known as daninoz [17:42] installed 14.04/32 on 2006 fujitsu laptop, after resorting to Vesa graphics it's ok on the VIA UniChrome video chip. but it won't shut down: it always gets stuck here, with the "wait" symbol circling forever: http://www.vaultofsages.de/~dexterf/bilder/circling_forever.png [17:42] thats what happens when i reboot it [17:42] codmadnesspro_: You have gui, looks like you are without a visble DE though. [17:42] moquist: it's not shortcuts, it's called menu key, don't remember exactly, something along the line [17:43] is there a way to fix that? [17:43] codmadnesspro_: I don't understand what you're trying to show us. [17:43] jhutchins: VNC connection is not displaying the DE. only windows from the look of it. [17:43] Tiensbakung: Hm. OK. Thx! [17:44] codmadnesspro_: I think its an issue with the vnc trying to miniumize bandwidth use. [17:44] zzxc: but how he start the terminal? [17:44] rvdv. My guess would be super+t? [17:44] any way to change the mousewheel scroll in gnome-terminal from up arrow to page-up? [17:44] zzxc: mmm ;) [17:45] it auto started when i reboot it [17:45] The terminal did? [17:45] Im back and found some interesting messages in dmesg [17:45] Kreuger: pastebin it [17:46] codmadnesspro_: Hmmm I don't know right off. [17:46] let me give you a recording [17:46] working on it [17:46] lemme record one sec [17:46] I actaully have to head out. [17:46] k [17:46] I have to finish working on the project I'm on so I can release another fix for something else. But good luck codmadnesspro_ [17:47] Hi :> [17:47] Oh one last thing though. What Envorment are you using? [17:47] codmadnesspro_: Oh one last thing. What DE are you using? (Sorry for sending this twice I forgot to mention) [17:48] hmm I wonder if this is right place for sum support question ? <,< [17:48] http://pastebin.com/UQG8sg2x [17:48] aeyesi: if you don't ask you never know if you will get support [17:48] erm i dunno i just followed a tutorial [17:49] i just did sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and sudo apt-get install gnome-core [17:49] codmadnesspro_: Alright try running unity --replace. See what that gets you. [17:49] aha k :D well anyone have idea how reinstall simply system settings window? it ducked up ._. http://i59.tinypic.com/vfvajs.jpg [17:49] codmadnesspro_: This looks relevant: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2074397&page=2 [17:49] whats the full command? :P im new to it [17:49] k ill look at it [17:49] codmadnesspro_: Its just 'unity --replace [17:49] ' [17:50] or gnome-shell --replace [17:50] codmadnesspro_: I would guess that you do not have an active GUI session on the remote since it appears to be a VM. [17:50] aeyesi: sudo apt-get install --reinstall package-name? [17:50] yeah but this is well gnome window, how it could be named ? ._. === Guest_521 is now known as daniel664 [17:50] http://prntscr.com/3fi9he [17:51] Heres a video i just recorded of it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rViAGEKtKk&feature=youtu.be [17:51] aeyesi: fire up your system monitor, you should be able to figure it out === emil is now known as Guest63904 [17:52] im on a vps btw [17:52] codmadnesspro_: SOme additional stuff here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2048543 [17:52] Ahhh so the issue is that there is not DE fully installed. [17:52] codmadnesspro_: I think by default tightvnc expects an active local session for you to connect to. [17:52] codmadnesspro_: You could try running startx. [17:52] I also installed vnc4server to see if it did a differnece [17:52] codmadnesspro_: You also might have more luck with freenx. [17:52] and it showeed the some thing [17:53] codmadnesspro_: That also expects an active local session. [17:53] codmadnesspro_: Alright what do you get if you get a sudo apt-get install unity? [17:53] ok let me try === jenny_ is now known as jo_jo [17:53] http://prntscr.com/3fialv [17:53] I can't tell you how many times I start off by typing brew now. [17:53] zzxc: That's not going to affect the fact that there's no local X session running. [17:54] Hello! when i delete a row from libreoffice calc, there's a fatal error "vector::_M_range_check" [17:54] rvdv, did you see the pastebin? [17:54] Kreuger: I did some searching on the net, and one of the souurces said that maybe a update of your BIOS would help .... [17:54] codmadnesspro_: You could try launching individual X applications instead of a full desktop. [17:54] Kreuger: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Tp_smapi#thinkpad_ec:_nhttp://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Tp_smapi#thinkpad_ec:_no_ThinkPad_embedded_controller.21o_ThinkPad_embedded_controller.21 [17:54] codmadnesspro_: Those can be forwarded to a local X server over ssh. [17:54] jhutchins: Yeah I was figuring it wasn't properly installed, forcing it to reinstall I was hoping would fix it. [17:54] hmm [17:54] rvdv, Yeah I saw that too. But if it worked before, it shouldn't just stop working. [17:55] Hi ubuntu fellows! i am using lubuntu 12.04 - and i tried to boot directly to command line instead of an login manager - it worked. But i cant startx there, and also reverse the change isnt working (i changed in /etc/default/grub the value of GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT from "quiet splash" to "text" and back again... power off and on, and its still text-login).. could anyone give me a hint? startx freezes on GLX extension by the way... thank [17:55] zzxc: Well, he installed gnome.

[17:56] @jhutchins thanks! ill try [17:56] ok [17:56] Kreuger: tech is always moving step by step forward ... now the kernel, then the firmware, then the BIOS ... maybe the system is now astep ahead of the BIOS and things are not really compatible at the moment [17:56] Alright I really need to get back to work. [17:56] Goodluck codmadnesspro_ [17:56] k ill try :3 === zzxc is now known as zzxc_working [17:57] can i have some help. im using kubuntu 14.04 and i can't seem to control my asus back light. witch i was able to on live usb same goes for the screen brightness [17:57] Unkown_ lul I figured out how fix this :D [17:57] rvdv, Im not sure if theres even an upgrade available.

[17:59] yep [17:59] !dualboot | codmadnesspro_ [17:59] codmadnesspro_: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [17:59] becuz win 8.1 is shit [18:00] aysorth: i assume, if i run virtualbox on OSX i still need normal 64 bit? [18:00] Guest63904: did you try lightdm ¿ [18:00] someone [18:00] ? [18:00] Is there a way to remove windows 8.1 and just leave it with ubuntu? [18:00] yeah [18:00] So theres no dual boot its just pure ubuntu [18:00] If u prepare ubuntu installation, it will ask you exactly what you want to do [18:00] win 8.1 is pissin me off [18:00] xD [18:00] codmadnesspro_ boot live dvd or usb, use gparted to delete partitions [18:01] k [18:01] someone know about this error? [18:01] codmadnesspro_, Keep your language clean here please. You have a gpt partiiton table even if you remove all partitions. [18:01] Also is it still possible that i can use .exe files on ubuntu? [18:01] where do i find my nivdia gefore gtx driver on kubuntu lol? [18:01] codmadnesspro_: No real need for the live CD, you can delete the windows partitions from a regular ubuntu session. [18:01] after i install ruby [18:01] k [18:01] codmadnesspro_: Run update-grub after you do and it'll clean up the boot menu. [18:02] So could i still run .exe on ubuntu? [18:02] Here is the answer to my question about HUD grabbing focus when I use Alt in Gnome Terminal: http://askubuntu.com/questions/122209/how-do-i-modify-or-disable-the-huds-use-of-the-alt-key [18:02] dont use .exe [18:02] codmadnesspro_: Not necessarily. [18:02] Any idea how to fix 5.1 sound with intel ? <,< [18:02] Is there an app that could port it maybe? [18:02] Turns out I misread the default HUD shortcut of "Alt L" as "Alt+L". Disabling that shortcut entirely in System Settings has resolved the issue. [18:02] + re-install of unity without reinstall of whole OS ? [18:02] codmadnesspro_: FInd the Linux way to accomplish whatever task the .exe was for. [18:02] lightdm worked like a charm - thank u very much xangua! wish u a great weekend. lovely community here - i will stay in freesoftware for the rest of my life =) [18:02] k xD [18:02] codmadnesspro_: Depends on the program. [18:03] codmadnesspro_: Some windows software will run under Wine, but a lot won't.

[18:11] I formatted it ext4, but I need my wife to be able to connect it to the laptop and then mount it so that she can backup her pictures [18:11] I tried like everything* but i cant make it play on all 6 speakers [18:11] currently, I cannot do that .... [18:12] cer... why..? [18:12] when I connect it, it is recognsed, but not mounted and Disks or Gparted cannot mount it [18:12] What is the most common cause of right-clicking desktop background not working? [18:12] aeyesi #ubuntustudio is multimedia dedicated, try that channel [18:12] I've already reinstalled ubuntu-desktop and reset Unity. [18:12] cool thanks [18:12] skinux i've done the same thing right now :D [18:13] aeyesi: because disks and gparted ar enot mounting it [18:13] sry i have no idea cerr [18:13] hi [18:13] It seems isolated to "Ubuntu" session option === andyfied_ is now known as andyfied [18:14] cer: can you manually mount it with "sudo mount" command? [18:16] Tiensbakung: would rather avoid to avoid destroying data [18:16] cer: gparted is for editing partitions, not mounting disks. [18:17] cer: Are you saying gparted can't see the partition? If so how did you format it? [18:17] cer: Why would the mount command affect the data? [18:18] jhutchins: yes, gparted sees the partition [18:18] jhutchins: gparted can mount partitions [18:18] jhutchins: and so can Disks [18:18] cer: Apparently not this partition. [18:18] cer: Try sudo mount /dev/whatever /mnt [18:18] anyone have any good MAAS Deployment pointers/advise [18:19] sigint88: Yes, don't. [18:19] sigint88: It's not ready for linux yet. [18:19] sigint88: Are you talking about MaaS360? [18:20] umm mentioned here http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/tools/maas [18:20] what is maas360? is it a game? [18:20] hi people [18:22] sigint88: No, MaaS360 is an auditing/security monitoring tool. [18:22] sigint88: https://maas.ubuntu.com/ [18:22] hmm [18:22] seems like the same thing then [18:22] Anyone know of a way to disable the mouse being able to interact with the application switcher? [18:22] sigint88: No, second link is to Ubuntu metal-as-a-service. [18:23] sigint88: You don't want to know about MaaS360. [18:23] ahh ok jhutchins i see here [18:23] http://www.maas360.com/ [18:24] So, I'm curious. Ubuntu has an /etc/default/keyboard, but there appears to be no man page for it, which Debian has the man page. Why would the man page have been omitted? Does it indicate that Ubuntu wants that file to be hands-off, or was it just left out in error? Or is there some other explanation? [18:24] yes, so im interested in maas [18:24] sigint88: Yep, that's the nasty beast. [18:24] s/which/while/ [18:25] jhutchins:done, it mounts OK .... it seem to show less disk available than the NTFS one I have [18:25] jhutchins: the problem is that Disks should be able to mount graphically [18:25] cer: ext reserves 15% for system use. === KnownSyntax_ is now known as KnownSyntax [18:26] cer: can be tuned with hdparm. [18:26] 15%? 5%? [18:26] with tune2fs, anyways? [18:27] 5% [18:27] not an issue, really, unless your disks are absurdly large [18:27] and even then, only when you can paradoxically afford large disks but not more of them :p [18:27] reisio: You're right, tune2fs. [18:27] :D [18:27] jhutchins: no, this is really down to the 1K blocks .... it shows 2884120800 instead of the usual 2930232316 [18:28] sigint88: You might have better luck asking in #ubuntu-server [18:28] cer: Ok. Put it in your fstab and see if it mounts when you connect it. [18:28] Hi [18:28] hi crist [18:28] Helo! [18:28] cer: Look at dmesg to see what's going on when it connects. [18:28] jhutchins: in what sense? fstab is not for automounting. [18:28] I can't delete all the files on my mp3 player [18:28] How can I solve this problem? [18:28] cristian_c: how've you tried? [18:29] So, that kind of omission makes throws me into a sort of existential quandry, as I wonder if supporting Ubuntu is really a good idea. Why would they leave something undocumented when the work has already been done for them, and only needs to be included? [18:29] Any ideas? [18:29] reisio, via file manager [18:29] jhutchins: I looked at dmesg, and it is fine. EXT4-fs (sdc1): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. [18:29] cristian_c: what happens when you try? [18:29] reisio, I get an error message [18:29] ChibaPet_: what made you choose Ubuntu over Debian in the first place? [18:29] I'm having issues installing ubuntu [18:29] cristian_c: ...which states what? [18:30] jorgevazq: what issues? [18:30] reisio, I installed the OS using the recommended settings alongside Windows 8.1 [18:30] ChibaPet_, When you find that perfect world, let us know. [18:30] reisio: Disappointment over the quality of some work in Debian from developers that seem to have no interest in supporting -stable made me start to look for alternateives. [18:30] Beldar: I'll tell you what I find. [18:30] jhutchins: oh, I created a GUID partition table instead of a MBR on the disk .... may that account for the difference? [18:30] ChibaPet_: ...and you chose a distro sourced from the unstable branch of Debian?... [18:30] ChibaPet_: sounds like you didn't quite think it all through [18:31] reisio, but when I boot I can't choose which OS to boot, it just opens Windows [18:31] jorgevazq: how many disks do you have? [18:31] One hard disk and I'm not sure about how many partitions it has [18:31] reisio: I chose an LTS edition of Ubuntu, and they've gotten some of the things right that Debian got wrong. So this is my twitching and wondering why it can't be just a tiny bit better. :P [18:31] LTS is still sourced from unstable Debian [18:32] Plus, I really like Unity quite a bit so far. [18:32] "LTS" is just a buzzword to make you feel better about irresponsibly putting off updating [18:32] hah [18:32] anyways, like the man said, little is perfect [18:32] reisio, the thing is I tried with Boot Repair using the Live USB (twice), but BR says I should enable EFI [18:32] over time you're going to collect your own personal fixes to things [18:32] jorgevazq: maybe you should enable EFI [18:33] reisio, .Trash-1000:unable to trash the file: Argument not valid [18:33] ...and you can use Unity on any distro, FYI === islandmonkey is now known as mynameisnotdave [18:33] jhutchins: what lne would you put in fstab to get autmounting? [18:33] however, if I enable EFI I can't boot neither from the USB, nor Ubuntu, just Windows [18:33] it's a fairly small modification of GNOME 3 and compiz [18:33] could you hold on for a few minutes? I have to run an errand [18:33] jorgevazq: mmm, well you could theoretically use Windows' boot manager for the time being, by running EasyBCD from within Windows [18:34] reisio, I'll check that when I come back [18:34] brb [18:34] :\ [18:34] reisio, AUTORUN.INF:Error fetching info for AUTORUN.INF File or directory not found [18:34] why i cant install in ubuntu cinch?

[20:52] jhutchins, cat /etc/resolv.conf still points to old ip [20:53] This is what I discover from exploring linux! O.O [20:53] Pessimist: skinux "running x on it" is choose the other user in the lightdm. running startx will break some file permissions and cause more trouble on ubuntu [20:53] Voyage: I would expect you'd have to stop/start networking to cycle the client and make it take effect. [20:53] k1l, we didn't say he needs to run it with startx [20:53] hm [20:55] Pessimist: yes, but unfortunately most users did see some cool howto where they use startx and they think that is the standard usage. didnt meant to judge you, just wanted to make it clear. [20:55] Voyage: You could probably kill and re-start dhclient. [20:56] Voyage: Take a look at ps ax to see what options are being passed to it. [20:57] jhutchins, I have made it nameserver 8.8.8.8 but I cant ping google.com now [20:57] k1l: startx used to be fairly common before the DM standard caught on.

[21:29] yes [21:29] innocent95, you might need to restart xchat after installing that pacakge [21:29] odife: Then there is no reason in not using a 64bit OS. [21:30] kostkon, ok, the peep sound is not working too [21:30] innocent95, just select a audio file for it in xchat's prefs [21:30] kostkon, Do i haveto ? [21:31] have to* [21:31] ok. I have a lot of things installed in my current system. I am afraid of upgrading now [21:31] kostkon, doesn't it has a default peep sound ? [21:31] odife: You cant upgrade from 32bit to 64bit. You have to reinstall. [21:31] innocent95, not anymore on ubuntu [21:31] kostkon, Thank you very much bro. [21:32] ok. Will the software I use in 32bit work in 64? [21:32] innocent95, np [21:32] odife: The most easy way would be to install the 64bit version of your software. [21:34] kostkon, can't see it after installing it :) ?

[21:52] skinux, " signon-ui's reported installation media" that doesn't make any sense [21:53] First of all, those three problem reports happen every time I login to my primary user account, but not logging into this second one I created.

[22:50] mmazing2: UEFI ? .. can be a real pain to get a different operating system to boot on some OEM's set ups. [22:50] UEFI is turned off [22:50] In session menu, I have "Gnome" and "Ubuntu", Ubuntu (Unity) is default) [22:50] hello. in ubuntu software center, can you update installed software, can you detect installed software that have new version? [22:51] I'm not sure what you mean by Gnome-Ubuntu. [22:51] mmazing2: Try with it on, as ubuntu will boot in UEFI mode. [22:51] Bashing-om: i'll try that, but i'm booting into YUMI Multiboot, so i'm not sure that would work [22:52] mmazing2: Can't sat about YUMI, I have seen that on some systems - fast boot must be turned off . [22:54] mmazing2: 'nother thing ! .. make sure Windows is not in hibernation ! === sarsaeol_ is now known as sarsaeol [22:55] Bashing-om: hmmm, fastboot is set to "thorough" so i would assume that is off [22:56] i turned off "usb boot support" so maybe that might work :\ === daninoz_ is now known as daninoz [22:57] mmazing2: Beats me what "thorough" may be also. Time to read the instructions ? === hid is now known as marchand_de_tapi === ubuntu is now known as Guest24328 [23:09] My non-USB microphone won't give out anything except Static, I can't hear my own voice when I record as well, Ubuntu 14.04 === ItsYoda is now known as ItsYoda1 [23:10] Bashing-om: ok, i enabled UEFI, it wants a target to point at to boot, is "bootmgr" incorrect? === ItsYoda1 is now known as ItsYoda [23:11] mmazing2: Humm.. think more in the line of efi-manager (??). [23:11] Bashing-om: i have to "Add Boot Option" and it is asking for a filename and gives me a file manager [23:12] mmazing2: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". [23:12] Jordan_U: I can't boot at all currently :( [23:13] hello guys [23:13] mmazing2: /EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi === Jabo` is now known as Jabo [23:13] my audio doesn't work! i've lubuntu 14.04, there's not sound icon [23:14] Jordan_U: I'm using YUMI multiboot, I found a program that makes it work for UEFI, i'll try your suggestion first and then otherwise im going to go have a beer :) === marchand_de_tapi is now known as hid [23:14] mmazing2: Well, let's think this through, booting is looking for boot code -> to a boot manager (YUMI ??) Now in UEFI there exist a separate partition to hold the boot code that loads the boot manager. Depending on where you are in the boot process is what is being looked for next. [23:15] mmazing2: For preparing the bootable USB follow the instructions on Ubuntu's website. [23:16] hi [23:16] how do i change bash $3.2 to user@localhost..can somebody tell me [23:16] anyone know how to get rid of the wifi icon on a system that is hardwired in? [23:16] rezan: how did you log in? [23:17] Jordan_U: Bashing-om: thanks for the help, im too tired from work today to mess with this, computer is fussy for some reason, ill try and do a plain burn of ubuntu onto a stick by itself, hopefully that works [23:18] mmazing2: Right, Like I have advised , I have seen that on some systems getting an alternate OS to boot can be very trying, [23:18] mmazing2: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows [23:18] jrib:- I loged in as rezan [23:19] rezan: how did you create the user? [23:20] Jordan_U: just to mention, this usb stick and another works perfectly well in 3 other computers, so it's an issue with this specific laptop [23:21] mmazing2: See jordan_u's last, also, UEFI booting, that USB stick will also have to be created with UEFI enabled to boot UEFI . [23:21] jrib:- first i log in as root then wend to system and then added username as rezan [23:21] rezan: what command? [23:22] mmazing2: It might be booting via BIOS rather than UEFI on the other laptops. [23:22] Jrib:- i didnt use any command just went on system [23:22] Bashing-om: hmm, YUMI uses pendrivelinux to do all of this, so it may be a setting in YUMI [23:22] rezan: you logged in as root into the GUI? [23:22] Jrib:- yes [23:23] Jordan_U: Bashing-om: thanks again for your help, i think i have a good starting point once i get back home, cya [23:23] rezan: that's kind of odd since ubuntu doesn't even have a password for root by default [23:23] mmazing2: You're welcome. [23:23] rezan: what's the output of "echo $0" in this shell with the prompt you don't like? [23:23] mmazing2: Maybe, If you ar creating the USB stick on that same box, make sure you do boot in UEFI mode. [23:24] Jrib:- hmm...what should i do then ,,?? and what if it is in redhat [23:25] rezan: if you are in redhat, then this channel is for ubuntu support and you should go to the redhat channel [23:25] jrib:- if i do echo $0 then it will show bash [23:25] rezan, change bash shell prompt: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ubuntu%20changing%20shell%20prompt%20to%20user%20host [23:25] jrib:- okie thanks === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon === avis is now known as Guest38749 === patrick is now known as Guest58870 [23:43] anyone experienced with triple head with nvidia sli/dual gpu cards? anytime I enable xinerama OR Base Mosaic, login screen is fine, all 3 monitors, but logging in, the system grinds to a halt with really laggy mouse movement. happened on 13.10, hoped 14.04 would fix, but didnt [23:43] guys [23:44] how can I use my scroll wheel to run "show windows" (super + w) [23:44] mozzarella: your scroll wheel? you mean mouse gestures or something?
