| daftykins | then type it in | 00:12 |

| _PlayMCPENetwork | Ik im trying to setup xenforo :P | 00:16 |
| Krenair | kr4m3r, you want to have an HDMI input that VLC displays? | 00:16 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | And you need database for xenforo | 00:16 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | !xenforo | 00:16 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | O theres no info :P | 00:16 |
| daftykins | !info xenforo | 00:16 |

| kr4m3r | _PlayMCPENetwork: yes | 00:18 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | Mysql is so frickin hard xD | 00:18 |
| daftykins | but if you're creating a db, you won't be logging into it as root | 00:18 |
| daftykins | you'll create a new user exclusively to manage that db | 00:19 |
| Krenair | _PlayMCPENetwork, I hate to say this but... have you tried googling it? :p | 00:19 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | Nah ill use phpmyadmin much eaier | 00:19 |

| _PlayMCPENetwork | Whats the difference between apache2 and lighttpd? | 00:25 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | !apache2 | 00:25 |

| _PlayMCPENetwork | hmmm | 00:25 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | !xenforo | 00:25 |
| Krenair | they're two different pieces of software. they are both http servers | 00:25 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | Which one would you recommend the most? | 00:25 |
| Krenair | Have only used apache2 on my local machines. | 00:26 |
| Krenair | so can't really comment | 00:26 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | k | 00:26 |
| _PlayMCPENetwork | It says something :/ http://prntscr.com/3fyduk Whats the best option? | 00:28 |

| Tin_man | does your sound card work beyound win.. | 00:45 |
| mgolisch | [[thufir]]: hows your monitor connected? | 00:45 |
| mgolisch | does it have speakers? | 00:45 |
| [[thufir]] | the speakers plug into the back with a jack. They are powered and vol up. it worked on 13.x, but with the same physical setup, now clean install -- nothing. no speakers on monitor. | 00:46 |
| mgolisch | is the monitor connected via hdmi? | 00:48 |
| [[thufir]] | I dunno, I fiddled all yesterday, now, seconds after asking here, it works. thanks for fixing it ;) | 00:48 |
| mgolisch | maybe it asumes that it supports sound via hdmi | 00:48 |

| mgolisch | it should work just well | 01:00 |
| kostkon | mm_, openoffice or libreoffice | 01:00 |
| mm_ | libreoffice | 01:00 |
| mm_ | text is messed up alitte. | 01:01 |
| srock | openoffice or libreoffice are better than microsoft office | 01:01 |
| mm_ | libreoffice is not. | 01:01 |

| ominomi | Hello, is there a way to change Compiz window borders to anything other than Ambiance and Radiance without having to disable Unity? I wish to use the Orchis theme from the Moka project. I can change the window borders to this in ccsm by enabling "Window Decorations", but it says it conflicts with the Unity plugin and if I go through with it, it disables the launcher dock and the top menu bar entirely. | 01:01 |
| mgolisch | they fail to provide an alternative to access | 01:01 |
| mgolisch | base is realy not ready for anything | 01:01 |
| mm_ | ubuntu has open office by default | 01:02 |
| kostkon | mm_, libreoffice | 01:02 |
| mm_ | kostkon: libreoffice isopen office | 01:02 |
| mm_ | ? | 01:02 |
| kostkon | mm_, it's a fork of openoffice | 01:02 |
| mm_ | not opening my files in decent way. unfortunately | 01:03 |
| larry | bfmersion | 01:03 |
| mgolisch | generaly it shouldnt have much problems with doc format | 01:03 |
| trism | ominomi: should be able to change it with unity-tweak-tool | 01:03 |
| vfw | mm_: What is wrong with libreoffice? | 01:03 |
| mgolisch | it may not support some stuff from the newer xml baes docx format | 01:04 |
| === larry is now known as Guest89687 | ||
| mgolisch | though | 01:04 |
| mm_ | its .doc | 01:04 |
| mm_ | Microsoft Word Document | 01:04 |
| vfw | mm_: Define "decent way". | 01:04 |
| mgolisch | but then again its like 0eur vs 300 eur or whatever the prof version of office is | 01:04 |
| ominomi | trism: I'll try that now. Thanks. | 01:04 |
| mm_ | Some text format is not correct. | 01:04 |
| mgolisch | so it still good for a completely free product | 01:04 |
| mm_ | some text below where it should be | 01:05 |
| vfw | mm_: Oh, fonts are different? | 01:05 |
| vfw | !fonts | mm_ | 01:05 |
| ubottu | mm_: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "ttf-mscorefonts-installer" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". For the official ubuntu font, see: http://font.ubuntu.com/ | 01:05 |
| mm_ | and some text below the line | 01:05 |
| vfw | mm_: below what line? | 01:05 |
| vfw | mm_: Lines in a table? | 01:05 |
| mgolisch | if you want stuff to look the same have a look at pdf/a standard | 01:06 |
| mm_ | kind of | 01:06 |
| vfw | mm_: You probably just need some fonts. | 01:06 |
| mm_ | so? | 01:06 |
| sporkius | I have a monitor. When 12.04 boots it I can see the bios and post screen. I am loosing the monitor once it gets to ubuntu | 01:07 |
| sporkius | I can see it in the displays section of systems tools | 01:07 |
| sporkius | ergh system settings | 01:07 |
| sporkius | any suggestions? | 01:08 |
| mgolisch | sporkius: enable it there? | 01:09 |
| sporkius | what do you mean mgolish | 01:09 |
| mgolisch | like when your in syszem settings - displaydevices or whatever its named in english enable that display | 01:10 |
| mgolisch | and it should display something | 01:10 |
| sporkius | I have done that. IT still isnt showing anything | 01:10 |

| lmbeta8 | hi guys need little help with samba and automouting ntfs hard drive to have read/write access for all samba users | 01:13 |
| cuyotte | Has anyone had any luck with working with plex on a linux machine? | 01:13 |
| sporkius2 | sorry got disconnected | 01:13 |
| sporkius2 | I am not sure how to tell what driver I am using | 01:14 |
| mgolisch | cuyotte: no idea never used plex | 01:14 |
| mgolisch | lmbeta8: whats your problem? | 01:14 |
| mgolisch | lmbeta8: just make the share use whatever user the ntfs is mounted with | 01:15 |
| lmbeta8 | if mount ntfs hdd using admin account only admin can login and write to that drive others user can authenticate but are unable access the share | 01:16 |
| html | how can i know whats installed on my ubuntu server with the terminal? | 01:17 |
| Bashing-om | sporkius2: To see your graphics card and some related info , Terminal command -> sudo lshw -C display <- . | 01:17 |
| mgolisch | lmbeta8: just make the share use whatever user you mount the ntfs as | 01:18 |
| mgolisch | lmbeta8: or set the guid option when mounting the ntfs to a group that your samba users use | 01:18 |
| sporkius2 | PCI (sysfs) is what I get | 01:19 |
| lmbeta8 | i want ntfs hdd to be mounted startup with read/write but not sure of what should put /etc/fstab | 01:20 |
| Bashing-om | sporkius: Give it time to complete. takes a bit to look at the hardware. | 01:20 |
| mgolisch | lmbeta8: as ntfs doesnt support the posix permission model youd have to specify a user/group to mount it as, adjust your share accordingly | 01:20 |
| mgolisch | or dont use ntfs | 01:21 |
| mgolisch | :) | 01:21 |
| lmbeta8 | not using ntfs is not possile should use something like this dev/sdb1 /windows/C type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other,blksize=4096) | 01:22 |

| sporkius2 | I have 2 monitors. One is an actual monitor the other is a hdmi tv | 01:27 |
| sporkius2 | during post both displays work. Once ubuntu starts to load only the monitor displays. The tv doesnt display | 01:27 |
| Bashing-om | sporkius2: Humm, the card does support 2 monitors. Have you tried the GUI settings in "display" . | 01:28 |

| Wug | I seem to recall having to do weird things like restarting X in order to get new displays to function, have you tried logging out and back in again | 01:30 |
| mgolisch | sporkius2: how is that tv connected? | 01:30 |
| mgolisch | hdmi? | 01:30 |
| sporkius2 | yes it is hdmi | 01:31 |
| mgolisch | hm | 01:31 |
| Wug | the spare monitor you tried was also HDMI, correct/ | 01:31 |
| sporkius2 | and I have bounced the machine a couple times trying to get it to play nice | 01:31 |
| Wug | ? | 01:31 |
| sporkius2 | yes | 01:31 |
| sporkius2 | everything I have tested is hdmi. Only thing the card supports | 01:31 |

| === MistaMike is now known as MikeMista | ||
| Wug | signal out of range or something similar perhaps? | 01:31 |
| sporkius2 | resolution is right based on what worked for the windows machine | 01:31 |

| Wug | my experience is that TVs are invariably horrible for use as monitors | 01:32 |
| sporkius2 | oh I dont argue | 01:32 |
| Wug | the colors are all wrong, and the resolution is never right either | 01:32 |
| sporkius2 | I only wanted to use it for movie watching | 01:32 |
| Wug | TVs like to advertise 1080p, and then actually only be like 1050p | 01:33 |
| mgolisch | so it displays as active/enabled mintor in systemsettings - displaydevices? | 01:33 |
| mgolisch | and still doesnt display anything? | 01:33 |
| sporkius2 | yep | 01:33 |
| django | how do I install xchat? | 01:33 |
| kostkon | django, use the software centre or just do sudo apt-get install xchat in the terminal | 01:34 |
| sporkius2 | It was a long shot anyway | 01:34 |
| pdo_fn14 | django: sudo apt-get install xchat | 01:34 |
| sporkius2 | The fact that a video card works at all is a minor miracle | 01:34 |
| does | django: Ubuntu Software center has it to. | 01:34 |
| mgolisch | i heard that atis driver became better over the time | 01:34 |
| Wug | sporkius2: you could probably try dist-upgrading, to see if it's something a newer release has fixed | 01:35 |
| mgolisch | i never had issues with nvidia so i nevertried any ati cards | 01:35 |
| sporkius2 | oh well this machine is a monster into itself | 01:35 |
| sporkius2 | If has a pcie x16 in a x8 slot | 01:36 |
| sporkius2 | and it is a old poweredge server as a desktop | 01:36 |
| sporkius2 | the fact that it hasnt popped I can handle the tv not working | 01:36 |
| mgolisch | wow dont want your powerbill | 01:36 |
| sporkius2 | oh its only on when I am using it | 01:37 |
| Bashing-om | sporkius2: ; Wug , mind yall, I do not know, but monitor #2 -> *-display UNCLAIMED , capabilities: pm vga_controller cap_list , configuration: latency=32 mingnt=8 . No driver is loaded - is any available ? Connect the TV and see if there is anything in dmesg log file ? | 01:37 |

| Jordan_U | Odd0002: What drivers/firmware did you install? | 02:00 |
| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: lspci says broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g | 02:02 |
| Odd0002 | connecting to WEP network | 02:02 |
| Jordan_U | Odd0002: Please pastebin the output of "lspci -vnn -d 14e4:" . | 02:02 |
| Odd0002 | uhh, I can't... it's a minimal install... | 02:02 |
| Jordan_U | !pastebinit | Odd0002 | 02:02 |
| ubottu | Odd0002: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 02:02 |
| Odd0002 | well I guess I have to reboot it then... | 02:03 |
| Jordan_U | Odd0002: It's better to have an open network than one using WEP. At least with an open network you will hopefully not act like the network is in any way secure. | 02:03 |

| Odd0002 | or do you do "command > pastebinit"? | 02:05 |
| Jordan_U | Odd0002: What does ubottu's message say? | 02:05 |
| Bashing-om | sporkius2: Hate to say but I do not know, only drivers avail per lspci is open source, recon open source on the 2nd output does not play nice with FGLRX on the 1st output ? | 02:05 |

| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: sort of... I have openbox and installed network manager and let it manage interfaces, but it doesn't connect to it either after it disconnects | 02:24 |

| mumersidd | 14:10 15:04 15:10 16:04 will be LTS | 02:34 |

| Jordan_U | Odd0002: As much as I don't like suggesting proprietary drivers over open ones, wl is another option that should work for your card. | 02:36 |
| kostkon | mumersidd, mir will be ready for 16.04, that's the plan anyway | 02:37 |
| Jordan_U | esterleigh: Yes, though #xubuntu might have more people familiar with XFCE. | 02:37 |
| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: well, it's worked fine since ubuntu 9.10 with a full DE... | 02:37 |
| kostkon | mumersidd, it's already in 14.04 but only for testing | 02:37 |
| esterleigh | ok thanks, nobody's responding over at #xubuntu so I'll try here | 02:37 |
| mumersidd | hmm thanks for the update guys | 02:38 |
| Jordan_U | Odd0002: Can you try testing with a 14.04 LiveCD to see if you can reproduce the problem? | 02:38 |
| esterleigh | with mint xfce I could right click in thunar for root access | 02:38 |
| kostkon | mumersidd, if you want to test it out, http://www.olli-ries.com/doing-more-with-your-unity8-preview-session-in-ubuntu-14-04/ | 02:38 |

| esterleigh | is it possible w/o terminal? | 02:38 |
| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: live cd? I won't be able to install the wifi drivers then... | 02:38 |

| mumersidd | thanks for the url kostkon | 02:39 |

| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: I'm confused about this problem as well: without networkmanager I couldn't connect the the university wifi (open network), but with it, I can without disconnecting; without networkmanager it seemed to stay connected? | 02:49 |
| Odd0002 | wicd didn't work either | 02:49 |
| Jordan_U | Odd0002: But the network being at capacity doesn't sound like a WPA specific problem. Why is this network using WEP anyway? | 02:49 |
| === Th3U1timat3 is now known as UltimateNate | ||

| Jordan_U | Odd0002: Why not make it open, since it effectively is already? | 02:50 |
| Odd0002 | and there's a lot of stuff like printers and etc that I'd have to reconfigure | 02:50 |
| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: because no one's tried to get on it before (I can tell by the DHCP table) | 02:51 |
| Odd0002 | and my wifi doesn't extend very far past the walls of the house | 02:51 |
| Jordan_U | Odd0002: Try making it open and see if the problem goes away. | 02:52 |
| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: the thing I want from the distro is really short boot times on an HDD, so I went with a minimal install | 02:53 |
| Jordan_U | Odd0002: "without networkmanager I couldn't connect the the university wifi (open network), but with it, I can without disconnecting; without networkmanager it seemed to stay connected?" This comment is confusing and seems possibly self-contradictory. Could you please rephrase it? | 02:53 |
| Odd0002 | and I have nothing on the computer, so if you want to recommend a distro for it, please do | 02:54 |
| Odd0002 | Jordan_U: without networkmanager: couldn't connect to open university wifi that required signing in, but could connect to WEP and (I think) didn't disconnect;;; with networkmanager: finally connected and registered to open wifi, but then started seeing "you were disconnected" message after 5 minutes of being connected to WEP network | 02:57 |

| viper474 | Lac3rat3d: everything in quotes after = | 03:53 |
| viper474 | Lac3rat3d: but they could run the command that alias is pointing to without the password | 03:53 |
| viper474 | Lac3rat3d: and run alias to list the defined aliases(sp?) | 03:54 |
| Lac3rat3d | viper474: i don't know what those commands do, but it may be of note that it's not just a straight up alias, it's an alias function. as in function sample() { program -args ; } | 03:54 |

| phix | ok I will try that | 04:16 |
| lotuspsychje | !info unity-tweak-tool | 04:16 |
| ubottu | unity-tweak-tool (source: unity-tweak-tool): configuration tool for the Unity desktop environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.0.6ubuntu1 (trusty), package size 325 kB, installed size 2549 kB | 04:16 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: yup, installed | 04:16 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: ummmm can't see anything for clock or location settings | 04:18 |
| lotuspsychje | phix: hmm lemme check | 04:18 |
| jhutchins | god, it's the windows tool to tweak the registy reborn. | 04:18 |
| jhutchins | We're supposed to be better than that. | 04:19 |
| lotuspsychje | phix: launcher/panel are the clock settings | 04:19 |
| sh1457 | #vlc | 04:19 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: yes but nothing about extra locations though | 04:20 |
| lotuspsychje | phix: no indeed | 04:20 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: The issue I am having is adding in extra locations in the clock settings. It seems to not know what PST, colorado or denver is | 04:20 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: I was having issues with London too, but that is working now | 04:21 |
| lotuspsychje | phix: not sure mate, this should be going by default..try a reboot maybe? | 04:21 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: I Am using ubuntu not Windows | 04:21 |
| lotuspsychje | phix: some settings might need a logout/reboot even on ubuntu | 04:22 |
| holstein | jhutchins: you think? the registry tweaking wasnt for issues with the UI, though.. usually.. also, there are more options than just the one | 04:23 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: ok seems like I need to type in Denver very fast or copy and paste it from another application (like gedit) for the auto complete to work | 04:24 |
| dyu | I just mounted postgres home(/var/lib/postgresql) with ecryptfs. After rebooting the machine, it is mounted for me automatically, but if I try to do any writes it tells me that it's a read-only filesystem. It's very weird coz mount shows it mounted as read/write. Here's some logs/output: http://pastebin.com/PsqkAv9Y | 04:24 |
| phix | lotuspsychje: Still, it is buggy | 04:24 |

| lotuspsychje | uncle_ben: did you try starting firefox from terminal? maybe show usefull error | 05:21 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: not seeing a image | 05:21 |
| lotuspsychje | ghostx562: its right ontop, url bar | 05:21 |
| ghostx562 | got it | 05:21 |
| ghostx562 | might be a theme addon you installed | 05:22 |
| lotuspsychje | uncle_ben: or a grafix driver issue | 05:22 |
| ghostx562 | lotuspsychje: if you google, says most common problem is a theme or add-on | 05:22 |
| lotuspsychje | ghostx562: i never said you was wrong :p | 05:23 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: it's a cropped image | 05:23 |
| ghostx562 | lotuspsychje: i know you didn't, im just saying before he starts messing with drivers, might just be an issue with the program itself | 05:23 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: i saw the image, try updating or disabling add-ons one by one to see which is the conflicting add-on | 05:24 |
| lotuspsychje | ghostx562: were are trying to help users from all different points, at the end a solution will come | 05:24 |

| Ryan___ | Hi all....bit annoyed,....just upgraded from 13.1 to 14.04 and all these graphical glitches now appear everywhere and I cant even operate ubuntu because it's almost impossible to see what I'm clicking on | 05:26 |
| lotuspsychje | uncle_ben: did you try another browser to see if black box comes up there? | 05:26 |
| uncle_ben | lotuspsychje: it doesn't seem to be a problem in chromium | 05:27 |
| uncle_ben | but this is a friend's computer and they like ff | 05:27 |
| lotuspsychje | uncle_ben: and you fully upgraded to firefox 29 right? | 05:27 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: check your settings on firefox | 05:27 |
| uncle_ben | yes, ff 29...fully updated system | 05:27 |
| ghostx562 | Ryan___: how did you upgrade OS? | 05:27 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: which settings in particular? | 05:27 |
| Ryan___ | software upgrade | 05:28 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: try disabling all add-ons on firefox then restart browser see if it fixes it | 05:28 |
| uncle_ben | ok | 05:28 |
| ghostx562 | Ryan___: i know I personally had trouble in the past upgrading using software upgrade, for best results I would do a wipe and upgrade | 05:29 |
| Ryan___ | i also loaded a version of 14.04 onto bootable USB, and ran that, same issue there too | 05:29 |
| gry | what issue? | 05:29 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: i disabled and restarted...problem is still there | 05:29 |
| ghostx562 | Uncle_ben: any theme changes? | 05:30 |
| Ryan___ | <gry> graphical glitches all over the screen causing ubuntu to be inoperable | 05:30 |
| ghostx562 | Ryan___: maybe driver issue? | 05:31 |
| gry | Ryan___, hi. Thanks. I'll send you a screenshot in a moment. | 05:31 |
| gry | Ryan___, http://www.lcvdata.kinghost.net/captured_2014_05_03.jpg - like this or not? | 05:31 |
| gry | Please also give your hardware details. | 05:31 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: yeah, i was tweaking a bit, but then changed back to default themes, so idk | 05:31 |
| Ryan___ | worse than that | 05:32 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: maybe a theme is still active? | 05:32 |
| gry | I'm looking at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/998416 and nobody of the 3 people I asked gave hardware details. They'd be pretty useful. | 05:32 |
| uncle_ben | yeah, i think that's my next troubleshooting step...just change the themes and see which ones render correctly in ff | 05:32 |
| uncle_ben | keep in mind this is an old, crappy box with integrated intel...dimension 2400 | 05:33 |
| ghostx562 | it ok | 05:33 |
| ghostx562 | have you tried starting firefox in safe mode? | 05:33 |
| uncle_ben | but everything else looks great...just this one issue | 05:33 |
| uncle_ben | no...how do i do that/ | 05:33 |

| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode#Linux | 05:34 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: ok...trying that now | 05:34 |
| ghostx562 | Uncle_ben: let me know what happens :D | 05:34 |
| ghostx562 | firefox location should be in usr/lib/firefox | 05:36 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: safe mode didn't solve the problem either :( | 05:36 |
| uncle_ben | wtf | 05:36 |
| ghostx562 | screen shot please | 05:36 |
| uncle_ben | actually it's /usr/bin/firefox | 05:36 |
| uncle_ben | there was a prompt and i clicked "start in safe mode" button | 05:37 |
| ghostx562 | yes | 05:37 |
| ghostx562 | and url bar still black? | 05:37 |
| wisescribe7 | Does anyone in here know of a Zorin OS IRC channel? | 05:38 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: unfortunately, it's still black | 05:38 |

| uncle_ben | you think it's really a theme issue? | 05:38 |
| uncle_ben | i'm using lubuntu | 05:38 |
| uncle_ben | lxde | 05:38 |
| ghostx562 | maybe | 05:38 |
| ghostx562 | what you can do is delete the firefox profile | 05:38 |
| ghostx562 | see if that fixes it | 05:38 |
| uncle_ben | why not | 05:39 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: try running this in terminal: apt-get purge firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox | 05:40 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: how do i get to profile manager? | 05:40 |
| uncle_ben | let me try the profile thing first | 05:40 |
| thomedy | i followed the ubuntu help page and opened update manager... and confirmed that the new versions of ubuntu will be notified and after that i get no notification im trying to update to 14 from 13.1 | 05:41 |
| thomedy | please help | 05:41 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: ok | 05:41 |
| thomedy | so i can get the newest lts and also so my vlc will work because im stuck in 2.08 and it isn't working | 05:41 |

| uncle_ben | ghostx562: i ran mv -v ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla.backup and then started ff | 05:46 |
| uncle_ben | it didn't solve the problem | 05:46 |
| thomedy | i dont see one... | 05:46 |
| thomedy | im trying a new tutorial | 05:46 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: i think you need to delete the profile then open firefox | 05:46 |
| thomedy | i think i got it | 05:47 |
| thomedy | this other tutorial worked fine | 05:47 |
| ghostx562 | awesome any other questions check back in here :D | 05:47 |
| thomedy | cool | 05:47 |
| thomedy | after i do this ill update everything software wise again | 05:48 |
| thomedy | and i should be top notch | 05:48 |
| ghostx562 | great :) | 05:48 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: that command does "delete" the problem by way of renaming it...when i started ff i lost all the tabs i had open | 05:48 |

| thomedy | i just opened a store mens wear is on the way... this will be short but if your looking for good fashion www.nicepiranha.com | 05:49 |

| thomedy | i really did come in here for ubunut | 05:49 |
| thomedy | ubuntu | 05:49 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: i can't purge and reinstall ff because it's a dependency of lubuntu-desktop | 05:49 |
| ghostx562 | thomedy: coincidence, i work for a place that has piranha in its name :D | 05:49 |
| thomedy | really | 05:50 |
| thomedy | is it piranha3d | 05:50 |
| ghostx562 | no, Piranha Bay | 05:50 |
| thomedy | thats a movie and probably not it | 05:50 |
| thomedy | let me google piranha bay | 05:50 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: let me see what i can find | 05:50 |
| dgarstang | for the love of god, where can I download the Live CD?? I can't find it | 05:50 |
| ghostx562 | dgarstang, its on the ubuntu main page | 05:51 |
| thomedy | you know there a re a couple listings of different varieties which one are you .... are you in california or the uk | 05:51 |
| thomedy | that might be weird | 05:51 |
| ghostx562 | CA | 05:51 |
| thomedy | cool you work for piranha bay | 05:51 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562: Server? Desktop? Something else? | 05:51 |
| ghostx562 | dgarstang: which version you looking for? | 05:52 |
| ghostx562 | desktop | 05:52 |
| ghostx562 | then scroll down | 05:52 |
| dgarstang | cghostx562: 12.04 | 05:52 |
| thomedy | i used to live in ventura where is signal hill | 05:52 |
| thomedy | i live in iowa now | 05:52 |
| thomedy | blech! | 05:52 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562; Well then I get taken to a download for 14, which I don't want | 05:52 |
| ghostx562 | one sec, ill fetch a link for ya | 05:52 |
| ghostx562 | Signal hill is near long beach, seal beach | 05:53 |
| thomedy | cool i gots family out there | 05:53 |
| thomedy | what do you do | 05:53 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562: and then if I go to alternate downloads... again... i dunno what to download. | 05:53 |
| ghostx562 | dgarstang: here ya go | 05:53 |
| ghostx562 | http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ | 05:53 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562: ok, but nothing there says 'live' | 05:53 |
| ghostx562 | then click on desktop depending whwat you want | 05:53 |
| ghostx562 | "live" cd is the same as the regular ISO | 05:54 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562L So Desktop == live? Ok | 05:54 |
| ghostx562 | when you boot it will ask if you want to install or use as live cd | 05:54 |
| ghostx562 | thomedy, silk screen printing | 05:54 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562: Well in that case, if I boot from The desktop/Live, the grub menu has no ooption for a 'boot from cd'. there's only install | 05:54 |
| thomedy | theres an error in the setting of new software channels... my first thought is i could easily remove all software i can find | 05:54 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562: live would imply it boots off cd and gives you a prompt./ | 05:54 |
| thomedy | but it said taht it coudl be because i have unsanctioned software as an option | 05:55 |
| thomedy | any suggesstions other than remove everything | 05:55 |
| ghostx562 | dgarstang: when you boot from the usb/cd it does give an option | 05:55 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562: Nope... I have 'install' and ... err, something else I cant remember. lemme see | 05:55 |
| ghostx562 | thomedy, honestly just backup to an external and wipe for a clean install | 05:56 |
| thomedy | okay that is definately not something i am doing tonight | 05:56 |
| ghostx562 | dgarstang: it should give you install and try option | 05:56 |
| thomedy | i dont need 14 that bad | 05:56 |
| ghostx562 | maybe just let it delete. | 05:56 |
| thomedy | i just want it | 05:56 |
| ghostx562 | it might be talking about the restricted extras? | 05:56 |
| dgarstang | ghostx562: I got it , thanks | 05:56 |
| ghostx562 | dgarstang: no problemo | 05:56 |

| ghostx562 | Radon_3: it should leave java installed and working, just no updates im thinking | 06:30 |
| maxh76 | Somewhere in the keyboard settings under "system settings" | 06:30 |
| maxh76 | I believe. | 06:30 |
| Radon_3 | sorry for the take off | 06:30 |
| Radon_3 | anyone answered me while I was gone? | 06:30 |
| ghostx562 | yeah | 06:30 |
| maxh76 | I appear to not have a launcher or top-bar anymore.. Upgraded to ubuntu 12.10 and some stuff broke and I think I accidentally removed quite a few necessary packages. | 06:31 |
| ghostx562 | Radon_3: download the x64 java from the java site, and try using the instructions provided to install it? i thought you would like the PPA approach as it has a detailed how to | 06:31 |

| hanasaki | I have built a custom kernel for a kvm based linux guest. I works fine with the rt and e1000 nic emulation however does not find the NIC when using paravirt. what needs to go in the kernel to get it to recognize a paravirt network card in qemu-kvm? | 06:32 |
| geowany | download the tarball, create and install deb packages with java from oracle | 06:32 |
| Radon_3 | geowany: that won't install openjdk? | 06:32 |
| maxh76 | ghostx562: terminal works, I just don't know what packages to isntall or anything like that.. | 06:33 |
| ghostx562 | maxh76: sudo apt-get upgrade? it should install missing packages | 06:33 |
| uncle_ben | ghostx562: i just forced a reinstall, but that didn't do anything either | 06:34 |
| geowany | Radon_3: the package can be created by make-jpkg command, after install java-package | 06:34 |
| maxh76 | 'sudo apt-get install unity' that worked, I think. It seems like it's installing the same deleted packages. | 06:34 |
| maxh76 | How to I update from 12.10 to 13.10 I keep getting errors, and I'm not sure what to do about them. | 06:35 |
| ghostx562 | maxh76: what errors? | 06:35 |
| ghostx562 | uncle_ben: you might be SOL | 06:35 |
| uncle_ben | nah...just need to hit the forums...but thanks for your help | 06:36 |
| Beldar | maxh76, 13.10 is eol, you would be best backing up and installing 14.04 fresh in my opinion. | 06:36 |
| maxh76 | ghostx562: 'Error: Marking the upgrade (E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.)' I do not see any held packages. | 06:36 |
| geowany | Radon_3: Don't need openjdk. | 06:36 |
| llutz | Beldar: 13.10 has couple of weeks support left, its not EOL yet | 06:36 |
| maxh76 | I don't know if I have the space to back up anywhere, or the time do to that. | 06:37 |
| maxh76 | 13.10 runs out in july I believe, maybe june. | 06:37 |
| Beldar | llutz, Ah, thanks. | 06:37 |
| Radon_3 | geowany: so correct me please if I am wrong: to install java jre from oracle in ubuntu I will have to run these commands: | 06:38 |
| ghostx562 | maxh76: try this in terminal sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 06:38 |
| ghostx562 | then check for update again | 06:38 |
| Radon_3 | sudo apt-get install java-package | 06:38 |
| Radon_3 | then | 06:38 |
| ghostx562 | also seems like you have broken packages maxh76 | 06:38 |
| Radon_3 | sudo make-jpkg | 06:38 |
| Radon_3 | am I right? | 06:38 |
| geowany | make-jpkg <jre downloaded from oracle> | 06:39 |
| geowany | a deb file will be created, so u'll use dpkg to install it. | 06:40 |
| Radon_3 | ok, so there are two packages available,Linux x64 RPM * and Linux x64* which one should I download? | 06:40 |
| geowany | Linux x64* | 06:41 |
| geowany | Don't use RPM. | 06:41 |
| llutz | Radon_3: the tar-file | 06:41 |
| Radon_3 | ok, I am downloading it | 06:42 |
| Radon_3 | one more question | 06:42 |
| django | anyone know where i can find mvoie links | 06:42 |
| Radon_3 | I have downloaded a .run file from nvidia website which is the driver to my grapchics card for linux, would this command install it correctly in ubuntu: | 06:42 |
| Radon_3 | sh ./nvidi-linux-x86_64-331.67.run | 06:43 |
| geowany | $ chmod + <Nvidia file.run> | 06:43 |
| llutz | Radon_3: why don't you use the drivers from repos? | 06:43 |
| ghostx562 | django: ?? mvoie? | 06:44 |
| Radon_3 | oh, by the way I have tried installing all the drivers provided by the repository and I always endup getting a black screen with a blinking cursor | 06:44 |
| geowany | I found problems with kubuntu 14.04 'cause it's use nouveau drivers | 06:44 |
| Radon_3 | geowany: instead of 'sh' just 'chmod + ' right? like this: "chmod ./nvidi-linux-x86_64-331.67.run"? | 06:45 |
| geowany | So I tried to install kubuntu 12.04 and upgrade to 14.04 | 06:45 |
| Radon_3 | geowany: or it should be "chmod + ./nvidi-linux-x86_64-331.67.run"? with a plus sign? | 06:46 |
| geowany | $ chmod +x nvidi-linux-x86_64-331.67.run | 06:46 |
| geowany | to give permission for run | 06:47 |
| geowany | after, run with "$ sudo ./nvidia-linux-blablabla.run" | 06:47 |
| geowany | I had to do this, but after I killed graphical mode with a "$ sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm stop" on tty (Ctrl + alt + F1(or F2-F6)) | 06:49 |
| helmut_ | hi | 06:53 |
| Gallomimia | still having difficulty installing onto a raid5. do i need to put /boot on a separate partition which is not involved in the raid?? | 06:53 |
| alfonsojon | geowany: An easier way is to boot into a GUI-free mode (recovery mode) and just run it as root | 06:55 |
| alfonsojon | No problems there | 06:55 |
| laigualdad | when installing a bunch of games, i seem to have filled up my root directory... i cant figure out what caused it. https://lut.im/kuii0SdX/Q2EOyfi9 | 06:56 |

| geowany | alfonsojon: you're right | 06:57 |
| alfonsojon | geowany: But if the way you did it works too, great. | 06:58 |
| alfonsojon | That's just safer :P | 06:58 |
| Seveas | laigualdad: sudo du -shc /* should tell you where most space is. I'm betting on /usr/share and/or /usr/games | 06:58 |

| geowany | but I don't like to do startx and I have been changed runlevel | 07:01 |

| webgen | Seveas, thanks ! | 07:03 |
| alfonsojon_ | If it can be tweaked, CCSM has it. | 07:03 |
| laigualdad | i cant seem to scroll up in the terminal for some reason (even though i set the scroll to unlimited) so i'll just highlight that i see /usr takes up 9.2G and /var takes up 3.4G | 07:04 |

| jellow | laigualdad , are you on a remote host ? btwyou can use | less to scoll up and down output | 07:05 |
| lnx | I am using ubuntu 12.10 is ther any good way to setup a work around to escape the sudo thing ......... everytime I go to creat a directory copile and program or somthing I run inito access denied I am used to creating a root acount and rebooting into it to do all my programing and this sudo thing is really getting anoying I realize that it is a very good security feature and is has its advantages but ????????? do I have too relearn prog | 07:07 |
| lnx | raming techniques or am just stupid or somthing or should I get another os | 07:07 |
| bazhang | lnx, sudo -i for a root shell | 07:09 |
| laigualdad | not on a remote host, im not familiar with the command. hm, but i think i can piece the output together. yes, that works, got it: http://pastebin.com/QMHCeabq | 07:09 |
| lnx | should I do sudo for eery shell that I chang to for dif tasks | 07:10 |
| bazhang | lnx, sudo -i the once | 07:10 |
| lnx | ok I will do that thanks | 07:11 |
| laigualdad | i suppose if i moved usr and var to separate partitions, this would help? | 07:11 |
| llutz | lnx: if you think to need root-rights for everything you do, you should re-think your workflow first | 07:11 |
| Seveas | laigualdad: as I suspected, /usr is getting quite big - games can be quite big and install into the root partition, you should have made it larger :( | 07:11 |
| laigualdad | annoying that it does! | 07:12 |
| Seveas | laigualdad: /usr shouldn't be on a separate partition, /var can but that doesn't help much. I'd just use one big partition and not separate /home | 07:12 |
| laigualdad | ok, so if i want the games, i need to extend my / ? | 07:12 |
| Seveas | laigualdad: indeed. There may be some easy wins like doing sudo apt-get clean | 07:13 |
| Seveas | but that'll be a few 100 mb at best | 07:13 |
| laigualdad | tried that xD | 07:13 |
| laigualdad | yeah | 07:13 |
| laigualdad | thanks! why should i not keep /home separate? | 07:13 |
| Seveas | laigualdad: why should you? | 07:14 |
| django | can someone please help me..i have a lpatop with nvidia and intel graphics card | 07:14 |
| django | it gets hot with ubuntu | 07:14 |
| django | what do I do? | 07:14 |
| InFierno | Seveas, it is possibly mroe secure if you do | 07:14 |
| Seveas | InFierno: nope. | 07:15 |
| InFierno | but that said any hacker who puts enough time and effort in will break in | 07:15 |
| larrypg | laigualdad, it does make upgrades easier | 07:15 |
| Seveas | larrypg: nonsense | 07:16 |
| InFierno | Side note on ubuntu is t possible to configure shorewall as a first firewal (permanent blocklist) to then goto iptables + fail2ban (temp) blocklist | 07:16 |
| laigualdad | i see | 07:16 |
| Seveas | InFierno: shorewall and fail2ban are both "just" frontends to iptables, so yes, that can be done. | 07:16 |
| larrypg | Seveas, would have to disagree but thats ok | 07:17 |
| InFierno | I figured - how fiddly would it be? | 07:17 |
| InFierno | Seveas, I can only guess he means if he wants to upgrade userdrive separate from OS drive (like in my case I use a 64gb ssd for boot drive, and an HDD for userdrives) | 07:17 |
| Seveas | though if you only want permanent blocklists, why use shorewall. iptables -A INPUT -s ip.to.block -j DROP is enough | 07:17 |
| InFierno | fail2ban clears permanent blocklists on restart | 07:17 |
| InFierno | IIRC | 07:17 |
| === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob | ||
| Seveas | InFierno: if you use separate drives, that's a different thing. But not separate partitions on one drive. (and if the drives are the same, so not ssd and hdd, I'd use LVM to turn them into one big blob) | 07:18 |
| laigualdad | well i had to jog my memory but one thing is it allows for a reinstall without losing my personal files and settings | 07:18 |
| InFierno | ^^ this is trie | 07:18 |
| Seveas | InFierno: fail2ban maintains its own chain in the filter table and adds a pointer to it from the INPUT chain. not too fiddly. | 07:18 |
| InFierno | I spent 4hrs yesterday chasing down an "issue" that is just a lovely feature of hyperV | 07:19 |
| Seveas | laigualdad: with reinstalls it helps, but I've rarely doen one of those. Last one was in '05 or '06 :) | 07:19 |
| Seveas | InFierno: oh, you mean where iptables rules don't work under hyperv? :) | 07:19 |
| InFierno | Ubuntu detects hyper-v with integraton as having a max-link speed of 100mbit - on a 10gbit port | 07:19 |
| InFierno | but actually connects at 10gbit lol | 07:20 |
| Seveas | nifty | 07:20 |
| laigualdad | i see :) | 07:20 |
| InFierno | Ill probably come poke you when I get new server up -> you got any recommendations for freebie ubuntu web controlpanels (i could do vhosts etc manually, but for 100+ domains its far easier to use a control panel for the vhosts) | 07:21 |
| Seveas | and for new machines, I just install Ubuntu and rsync -av old-box:/home/dennis/ /home/dennis/ :) | 07:21 |
| laigualdad | okay, thanks for that! | 07:21 |
| Seveas | InFierno: I hate control panels. Learn puppet. | 07:21 |
| Seveas | InFierno: that said, http://thenubbyadmin.com/2014/04/22/definitive-list-of-web-based-server-control-panels/ | 07:22 |
| laigualdad | ciao | 07:22 |
| InFierno | I basically just need something that can do the dns and vhosts - because large numbers of those are fooking boring | 07:23 |
| Seveas | InFierno: that's where puppet comes in, create one template, make N vhosts and zonefiles. | 07:24 |
| InFierno | How much does puppet cost? | 07:24 |

| larrypg | rimal, to be honest I am not positive as I always have used it to do a fresh install and I don't remember if that option is there | 08:24 |
| rimal | larrypg, okay. if i go with fresh installation and something else option and leaving /home partition unformatted will retain all of my files in home directory. | 08:29 |

| cfhowlett | rimal only once. I don't remember the details but it must have been sub-optimal as I've only done fresh installs since. FWIW I also install only lts, so my advice might not be overly useful to you. | 08:35 |
| rimal | cfhowlett, okay.. | 08:35 |
| rimal | cfhowlett, i tried to upgrade using update-manager but it required about 1.8 GB to be downloaded. I have limited bandwidth. Can i do that on multiple sessions? | 08:37 |
| cfhowlett | rimal inadvisable! once that upgrade starts you want it to complete and release your apt-lock! Suggest you torrent the ISO instead. then you can use the ISO as upgrade source or do a clean install. | 08:38 |
| SunilJoshi | rimal: yes you can do that n multiple sessions, while the packages are getting downloaded you can discontinue and next time it will resume from there.. | 08:38 |
| SunilJoshi | But i agree with cfhowlett too!! | 08:39 |
| rimal | cfhowlett, SunilJoshi , larrypg , ubottu : Thanks Every one ....:) | 08:40 |
| cfhowlett | rimal best of luck to you. | 08:40 |
| rimal | cfhowlett, Thanks a lot. | 08:42 |

| Ascavasaion | Newbienewb: Then you need to put that harddisk into another machine, or into an external hard disk casing for laptop harddisks. | 08:53 |
| cfhowlett | Newbienewb actually, that makes sense. go sudo and change the properties and you should be able to access | 08:54 |

| zxy_64 | hi, im having problems doing do-release-upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04. I get the following : https://paste.lugons.org/show/49GliICAdudMtYsVg9ea/ Is there a way to see what is bothering the script, some logs perhaps | 10:00 |
| cfhowlett | zxy_64 release-upgrade won't work until point release. do-release-upgrade -d (development) is the correct command - I think. | 10:01 |
| cristian_c | Hi | 10:02 |
| MonkeyDust | zxy_64 what cfhowlett says, but it takes about 2 hours and you have to stay present to confirm some changes -- i tried it | 10:02 |
| zxy_64 | cfhowlett, with -d i get the same | 10:02 |
| cristian_c | I've to delete all the files on my mp3 player | 10:03 |
| MonkeyDust | zxy_64 try disabling the backports, first | 10:03 |
| cfhowlett | zxy_64 sorry, then. don't know what to do with that | 10:03 |
| cristian_c | It remains one file, yet | 10:03 |
| cristian_c | but I don't know how to delete it | 10:03 |
| cfhowlett | cristian_c sudo rm filename | 10:03 |
| mm_ | libreoffice seems not fine with .doc files | 10:03 |
| mm_ | many indenting is not correct | 10:04 |
| mm_ | many lines be their correct place | 10:04 |
| mm_ | is it something Ican fix in libre office | 10:04 |
| === fly_ is now known as Fly80 | ||
| MonkeyDust | mm_ true, it's not 100% compatible, similar issues with presentations | 10:05 |
| mm_ | MonkeyDust: so what shall be done? | 10:05 |
| cfhowlett | mm_ imported documents often have errors. fix line by line in writer and save it | 10:05 |
| MonkeyDust | mm_ i have windows in vbox, for ms office alone | 10:05 |
| zxy_64 | MonkeyDust, the same with backports disabled | 10:05 |
| mm_ | soi shall install vbox for windows? | 10:06 |
| MonkeyDust | zxy_64 then I don't know | 10:06 |
| zxy_64 | is there a log to see what bothers the upgrade script | 10:06 |
| mm_ | hfff | 10:08 |
| MonkeyDust | mm_ it's an ugly workaround and i don't like it myself, but i need it, ms office is the standard | 10:08 |
| cristian_c | cfhowlett, ah, ok | 10:08 |
| cfhowlett | MonkeyDust indeed. | 10:08 |
| mm_ | Isee | 10:08 |

| DestinyAwaits | nah I downloaded smplayer, banshee, totem all stuck and the file it plays first stuck a lot of frames since beginning and then it freezes and finally self restart the audio doesn't match the frames at all | 10:12 |

I can't seem to get anywhere | 10:12 |
| cfhowlett | cristian_c that is NOT a music file. | 10:12 |
| cfhowlett | linuxlite1991 sorry but LL is not supported here | 10:12 |

| mm_ | virtualbox contain office by default? | 10:13 |
| DestinyAwaits | I will try to follow the instructions | 10:13 |
| cfhowlett | DestinyAwaits pretty much low end of the capability. suggest you install lxde or xfce4. logout, choose a different windows manager and login. | 10:14 |
| cfhowlett | mm_ of course not. | 10:14 |
| DestinyAwaits | its not happening with every mp4 file but this one | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | DestinyAwaits: then it sounds like a problem with that one file | 10:14 |
| linuxlite1991 | should still be relevant , based on 12.04 | 10:14 |
| wrongplace | whats is it called the system checke any OS does when booting? | 10:14 |
| mm_ | so after installing it. I need to launch windows | 10:14 |
| mm_ | and figure a way to install it. | 10:14 |
| cfhowlett | DestinyAwaits ah, I BET that's a HD file. won't play - don't play | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | linuxlite1991: sorry, but no. only official ubuntu is supported here | 10:14 |
| DestinyAwaits | maybe the problem can be its a 1 GB file and others are just in MB's | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | DestinyAwaits: unlikely. what is the file? can you upload the first 10MB somewhere? | 10:15 |
| cfhowlett | DestinyAwaits a 1 gig file and you have only 2 gigs ram total. thank about that | 10:15 |

| Ben64 | h264 with software decoding takes a lot of cpu. cpu you seem to not have | 10:27 |
| DestinyAwaits | Ben64: You said "at a lower quality sure " is the same thing possible with ubuntu OS.. I don't see Daum Player for Ubuntu | 10:27 |
| Ben64 | yes. it shows you how to do it in the message you posted | 10:27 |
| DestinyAwaits | cfhowlett: yep but the same file works without a problem on Windows Daum Potplayer | 10:28 |
| cfhowlett | DestinyAwaits so play in windows. done. | 10:28 |

| kandinski | I just rebooted because unity was misbehaving. Now I can't log on to the graphical session (I'm on a terminal). This is 13.10. Can anybody help me diagnose and fix the problem? | 10:31 |
| Gouou | hey guys i'm trying to install ubuntu minimal on lenovo thinkpad ..and i cant get ubuntu to detect wireless so i can download packages :/ | 10:31 |
| junka | DestinyAwaits, try gnome-mplayer | 10:31 |
| junka | or parole | 10:31 |
| Gouou | yesteday i installed ubuntu on emachines laptop..and it worked nicely | 10:31 |
| Gouou | is it somehow possible to help ubuntu detect wireless adapter while installing ubuntu? | 10:32 |
| cfhowlett | Gouou get a hardwire connection fix wifi afterwards | 10:32 |
| Gouou | i dont have a lan cable.. | 10:32 |
| kandinski | when I say "I can-'t log in", I mean that I see the password promt, It starts to show me the desktop, but kicks me out to the login manager again. | 10:32 |
| Gouou | funch: :) no freaking lan cable at home..its weekend ..and i need computer fixed for tomorrow morning :D | 10:32 |
| organicanarchy | Gouou, download the drivers on a machine thats connected and load them into your laptop? | 10:32 |
| Gouou | organicanarchy: but ubuntu isnt installed yet | 10:33 |
| organicanarchy | then download the drivers for your card, put it on a thumbdrive and load it after installation | 10:33 |
| junka | install it. get your wifi working. update | 10:33 |
| junka | ah he uses ubuntu minimal | 10:34 |
| DestinyAwaits | junka: Ok. I will try them as well.. YOu think they can make it work?? | 10:34 |
| junka | DestinyAwaits, i cant say. It worths a try | 10:35 |
| DestinyAwaits | junka: ok downloaded parole | 10:35 |
| DestinyAwaits | let see | 10:35 |
| DestinyAwaits | there is a shortcut to close the programs when the system freeze?? what is that | 10:36 |
| DestinyAwaits | ?? | 10:36 |
| Ben64 | what cpu do you have? | 10:37 |
| DestinyAwaits | Ben64: Me?? | 10:37 |
| Ben64 | yes | 10:37 |
| bekks | DestinyAwaits: There is no such shortcut. You can use xkill to kill unresponsive X applications. | 10:37 |
| junka | a prompt to kill it should appear | 10:38 |
| kandinski | I'm using 13.10. I rebooted because unity was misbehaving. I can't log onto X now (though the system still works, I'm on IRC from a tty). "I can't log in", I mean that I see the password promt, It starts to show me the desktop, but kicks me out to the login manager again. | 10:43 |
| kandinski | Can anybody help me diagnose and fix the problem? | 10:43 |
| gry | check logs, dmesg probably | 10:43 |
| bekks | and check free space, as well as the ownership of ~./Xauthority | 10:44 |
| kandinski | yes, I had managed to make ~/.Xauthority a root:root file | 10:46 |
| kandinski | thanks, gry and bekks | 10:46 |
| Ben64 | kandinski: be careful with your usage of sudo | 10:47 |
| bekks | kandinski: That happened because you used sudo on a graphical program. | 10:47 |
| Ben64 | don't sudo graphical programs | 10:47 |
| bekks | kandinski: Usegksu oder gksudo instead, for graphical applications. | 10:47 |

| FoSi | hi all, can someone please clarify if i install ubuntu-desktop task on a ubuntu 14.04 server will the network-manager works or it will be incompatible? | 11:40 |
| cfhowlett | FoSi it won't be incompatible but there's nothing in the gui that you can't configure in the server via CLI | 11:41 |
| FoSi | i have two apps that the system admin needs to use often and also the firefox | 11:42 |
| FoSi | i really need a stable desktop env | 11:42 |
| FoSi | but yes.. no argues on that cli does the job just great | 11:43 |
| cfhowlett | FoSi you can install desktop and add the server packages ... | 11:43 |
| trijntje | FoSi: do you need a desktop or a server? Running desktop apps on a server is a bad idea | 11:43 |
| FoSi | trijntje: thats not really an issue! most of servers run desktops and you now that :) | 11:44 |
| FoSi | cfhowlett: hm.. like tasksel ... ubuntu server something like that? | 11:44 |
| trijntje | FoSi: most servers run desktops? Thats not true at all. You can run a desktop on a server if you want, but that is generally considered a bad idea for security reasons | 11:45 |
| cfhowlett | FoSi I believe so. also, check the #ubuntu-server channel | 11:45 |
| user____1 | quit | 11:47 |
| FoSi | trijntje: i know all that.. but look at windows server and redhat.. and some more | 11:47 |
| FoSi | there are tasks that need gui | 11:47 |
| === tcpman is now known as Guest75673 | ||
| FoSi | custom apps and webapps, etc | 11:48 |
| bekks | FoSi: redhat kickstart doesnt need a gui, neither Widnows Core has a GUI. | 11:48 |
| FoSi | i dont say its a bad idea to have a server only with cli! im saying there are need for all things | 11:48 |
| cfhowlett | FoSi I think we can agree to that. question is how best in your case. | 11:49 |
| FoSi | yeah.. but i dont see very often kickstart beeing used and core also | 11:49 |
| limbo_ | My display server seems to have frozen. everything except for the mouse cursor. Clicking still works, but nothing on the screen is being updated. any suggestions? | 11:49 |
| bekks | FoSi: Then you have not much to do with server business. | 11:49 |
| FoSi | but thats in my universe experience | 11:49 |
| FoSi | bekks: be nice to people... im only saying that in this case i need a gui | 11:50 |
| bekks | FoSi: I am nice. If you take a fact that personal, I cant change it. | 11:50 |
| FoSi | and in my experience... windows server and redhat is used with a gui.. im not saying its bad or good | 11:51 |
| bekks | FoSi: Can we move on to Ubuntu support issues then? | 11:51 |
| FoSi | i trully know that having a server its better without all the junk | 11:51 |
| FoSi | i ill try cfhowlett idea on installing server task under the desktop version.. or install a bare ubuntu gui with the no-recommends | 11:53 |
| bekks | Doesnt your admin have his/her own desktop PC? :) | 11:53 |
| FoSi | yes | 11:54 |
| bekks | Then you dont need any gui on your server. | 11:54 |
| limbo_ | restarting Xorg brought it back, but it's super slow on the desktop now. Anyone kneo what I'm talking about? | 11:54 |
| FoSi | that would be great if the apps worked on his desktop.. well they work under rdp | 11:56 |
| bekks | On linux, you dont have a RDP server ;) | 11:56 |
| FoSi | lol | 11:57 |
| bekks | Thats no joke. | 11:57 |
| Gamex | hello | 11:58 |
| lblume | bekks: xrdp? | 11:59 |
| bekks | lblume: thats a mess, but not a reasonably sane application :) | 11:59 |
| cfhowlett | Gamex ask your ubuntu questions | 11:59 |
| bekks | lblume: It's even worse than plain vnc, not tunneled through ssh. :) | 12:00 |
| lblume | bekks: Okay, I was just going to ask that, I wanted to give it a try to compare to VNC :-) | 12:00 |
| bekks | lblume: I'd just use nxclient/nxserver from nomachine. | 12:01 |
| FoSi | vino vnc isnt working as expected on 14.04 | 12:01 |
| FoSi | at least for me | 12:02 |
| bekks | Then use a sane vnc server, not that vino crap. :) | 12:02 |
| FoSi | dont need it.. but vino could do the job for some situations | 12:03 |
| bekks | It requires a desktop - which is unwanted on a server. Everything you need can be achieved through ssh -X and a X server on the client. | 12:04 |
| lblume | bekks: Mostly so far I tend to run a regular VNC server when I need it and start what's needed inside. | 12:04 |
| ansic | I get black screen after I wake up my notebook and login, I'm using xubuntu 14.04,dell inspiron 1121 | 12:04 |

| WolfLambert | Not me, I'm sorry | 12:07 |
| lotuspsychje | i downloaded gpointing-device-settings to enable scroll un left mouse button on a logitech trackball, but cant get it working | 12:08 |
| manel | hi | 12:08 |
| manel | :D | 12:08 |
| WolfLambert | lotuspsychje: does the program launch? | 12:08 |
| WolfLambert | Or is it just not applying the setting? | 12:08 |
| WolfLambert | Hi manel | 12:08 |
| EmsY | Maybe you know how to help me WolfLambert? I have an error " Dependency is not satisfiable: fpc (>=2.6.4)|fp-compiler (.=2.6.4) | 12:09 |
| lotuspsychje | WolfLambert: it doesnt want to config the scroll | 12:09 |

| EmsY | I downloaded only one package llutz | 12:15 |
| crocket | But, it has additional stroke. | 12:16 |
| Ben64 | not really, just a different style | 12:16 |
| llutz | EmsY: why dn't you use the repo-version? | 12:16 |
| J84y5u | hi! do i need to download a specific .iso for the full disk encryption options or do i get that on all of them? | 12:16 |
| EmsY | llutz: the repo version? | 12:16 |
| llutz | EmsY: sudo apt-get install lazarus | 12:17 |
| cfhowlett | crocket look at a different kanji site. if the error is there, maybe it's a font issue. if not, it's your kanji practice app | 12:17 |
| EmsY | llutz: lol thanks :D | 12:17 |
| EmsY | llutz: Do you know pascal then? | 12:18 |
| crocket | cfhowlett, It is jisho.org | 12:18 |
| cfhowlett | crocket ??? check multiple sources ... | 12:18 |
| llutz | EmsY: i never really used it | 12:18 |
| Ben64 | crocket: its just different styles... if you're trying to learn kanji you should already know this | 12:18 |
| J84y5u | hi! do i need to download a specific .iso for the full disk encryption options or do i get that on all of them? | 12:19 |
| cfhowlett | crocket OH! ben64 is right! | 12:19 |
| EmsY | llutz: but have you learned pascal? | 12:19 |
| Ben64 | cfhowlett: of course i am :) | 12:19 |

| bekks | h3r1: I guess you just want backups. | 12:42 |
| cfhowlett_ | h3r1 note: note supported post-precise | 12:43 |
| h3r1 | trijntje thx are they similar to remastersys? as i realized before, i am searching for a remastering tool and not for a backup tool | 12:43 |
| trijntje | h3r1: no, dd and clonezilla can be used to create a backup of your system that you can restore. They do not generate an installable image with all your files on it | 12:44 |
| dukeraj | hi | 12:44 |
| dukeraj | anyone can help me | 12:44 |
| cfhowlett_ | !ask|dukeraj | 12:45 |
| ubottu | dukeraj: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 12:45 |
| dukeraj | I was trying to install ubuntu 14 desktop - 32 bit, then there is some error while installing it | 12:45 |
| bekks | dukeraj: Which error? | 12:45 |
| nadav | whats a better ssh management tool than putty? | 12:46 |
| dukeraj | i think the iso file is corrupted because i tried in virtual machine, similar error, i am not sure, the installation closed | 12:46 |
| bekks | dukeraj: Without a specific error, all these are just assumptions. | 12:46 |
| trijntje | dukeraj: hold the shift key during boot and select 'check cd for defects' | 12:46 |
| cfhowlett_ | !md5sum| dukeraj verify the ISO then verify the bootable USB/CD | 12:47 |
| ubottu | dukeraj verify the ISO then verify the bootable USB/CD: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 12:47 |

| dukeraj | when i try to install ubuntu again, i could find ubuntu is already installed along with my windows xp, i am really confused, when i restart it boot into windows xp | 12:48 |
| dekatch | oh wait. i fixed the overscan issue myself. i actually had amdccc installed. it just doesnt display an icon in taskbar | 12:48 |
| h3r1 | does anybody know how to fix the following? The following packages have unmet dependencies: plymouth-x11 : Depends: libplymouth2 (= 0.8.2-2ubuntu30) but 0.8.2-2ubuntu31.1 is to be installed Depends: plymouth (= 0.8.2-2ubuntu30) but 0.8.2-2ubuntu31.1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. | 12:48 |
| trijntje | dukeraj: that means the installation failed late in the process, when most files were already written to the harddisk. Check the cd for defects and try installing again if there are no errors | 12:49 |
| dukeraj | i use usb stick | 12:49 |
| bekks | h3r1: Yo have been told multiple times on how to fix it. Do you actually listen to advises? | 12:49 |
| bekks | h3r1: It isnt supported on your system anymore, and ou have to manually compile it if you want to use it. | 12:49 |
| trijntje | dukeraj: then check the usb stick for defects ;) | 12:50 |
| dekatch | can i change the bevahior for double click in a titlebar? | 12:50 |
| dekatch | i want to minimize that way | 12:51 |
| slikts_ | why is the unity launcher and app bars in front of fullscreen windowed games? it's impossible to play because of this shit | 12:55 |
| trijntje | slikts_: because a game is not fullscreen if its windowed? | 12:55 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: it's supposed to be in front anyway | 12:56 |
| dukeraj | the MD5 check sums are different, my iso is corruped | 12:56 |
| dukeraj | how now? | 12:56 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: it's called borderless windowed mode | 12:56 |
| bekks | dukeraj: Download the ISO again. | 12:56 |
| trijntje | slikts_: no it isn't. Just play the game in fullscreen mode if you want fullscreen mode | 12:56 |
| dekatch | dukeraj, redownload would be my guess :) | 12:56 |
| cfhowlett_ | dukeraj delete those bad iso. torrent the iso from ubuntu | 12:56 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: yes it is you stupid noob | 12:57 |

| dukeraj | i think i want to go for mint now....since ubuntu giving prob | 12:59 |
| cfhowlett_ | dukeraj your choice. | 12:59 |
| trijntje | slikts_: all windows keep the top and left bar visible, and in the latest ubuntu none of the windows have borders. | 12:59 |
| ronaldsmazitis | hello everyone I have been using ubuntu for 2 years and last week ubuntu got problems with not opening skype at all | 12:59 |
| bekks | dukeraj: hopefully your mint iso download will not be corrupted. :> | 12:59 |
| ronaldsmazitis | also qt applications fail on copy/paste keys | 13:00 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: it actually works… sometimes, but now it suddenly stopped working | 13:00 |
| dekatch | bekks, he probably goes windows then := | 13:00 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: and non-maximized windows have borders | 13:00 |
| bekks | dekatch: Hopefully. | 13:00 |
| ronaldsmazitis | can somebody help find a problem | 13:01 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: also things like video players or browsers in fullscreen also aren't proper fullscreen | 13:01 |
| ronaldsmazitis | skype works on virtual machine | 13:01 |
| ronaldsmazitis | where I run it on xubuntu | 13:01 |
| dekatch | but btw. linux mint. installed the latest version yesterday. v16. wasnt able to install fglrx.. | 13:01 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: but are in front anyway | 13:01 |
| trijntje | slikts_: I dont know what that page is about, but it says that what you are trying to do is buggy, messy, and no longer supported | 13:01 |
| ronaldsmazitis | anybody can read | 13:01 |
| dekatch | there were non available on mint. | 13:01 |
| basiclaser | hey guys how come latest ubuntu is not picking up devices? I see that bluez is installed, i also installed blueman packages. Nothing seems to spot my headphones | 13:01 |
| ronaldsmazitis | what I just wrote | 13:01 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ? | 13:01 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: its in the partner repo, or grab the deb from skype website | 13:01 |
| slikts_ | trijntje: no, you have NO CLUE what you're talking about. try pressing F11 in a browser, it's supposed to be in front too, so this behavior from unity is BUGGED | 13:01 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ActionParsnip I have it installed | 13:02 |
| ronaldsmazitis | it doesn't work suddenly | 13:02 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: ok are you using Unity shell? | 13:02 |
| ronaldsmazitis | just as qt apps fial to start | 13:02 |
| ronaldsmazitis | etc | 13:02 |
| trijntje | slikts_: f11 works for me, and I'm bored of being insulted by you. Good luck figuring out whats wrong | 13:02 |
| bekks | slikts_: Nope. F11 is fullscreen, not "fullscreen and modal on top of everything else". | 13:02 |
| ronaldsmazitis | qt creator designer doesn't starts at all | 13:02 |
| dukeraj | which ubuntu desktop 32bit is best ? | 13:02 |
| ActionParsnip | basiclaser: if you run: sudo iwlist scan ,do you detect the headphones? | 13:02 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I'm on ubuntu unity | 13:03 |
| bekks | dukeraj: The one that you like the most. | 13:03 |
| cfhowlett_ | dukeraj matter of opinion | 13:03 |
| ronaldsmazitis | 12.04 LTS | 13:03 |
| dukeraj | i am new | 13:03 |
| slikts_ | bekks: but that ALSO doesn't work for me, browser in F11 and videos are under the unity crap | 13:03 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: if you run it from terminal. Do you get any useful output? | 13:03 |
| ronaldsmazitis | Aborted. | 13:03 |
| dukeraj | i think i will go for version 12.04 | 13:03 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I reinstalled it several times | 13:03 |
| bekks | dukeraj: Just use 14.04 | 13:03 |
| basiclaser | ActionParsnip: nah nothing intelligable | 13:03 |
| dekatch | dukeraj, 12.04 here works fine for me :) | 13:03 |
| ronaldsmazitis | deleted configurations, and etc | 13:03 |
| ronaldsmazitis | nothing helps | 13:03 |
| cuyotte | Why not 14.04? | 13:03 |
| dekatch | with amd 5350 kabini + radeon r3 apu | 13:04 |
| dukeraj | how about backtrack linux, did u guys use that ? | 13:04 |
| dekatch | this hardware was releaed april/2014 | 13:04 |
| ActionParsnip | basiclaser: then i'd start by checking bluetooth works with other devices to verify its working ok | 13:04 |
| dekatch | last month | 13:04 |
| cfhowlett_ | dukeraj not supported here. | 13:04 |
| dekatch | mp3, video, 3d accel. amdccc all is working | 13:04 |
| ActionParsnip | dukeraj: that is supported in #backtrack-linux | 13:04 |
| slikts_ | bekks, trijntje: the point is that there are more kinds of fullscreen than just the typical exclusive fullscreen | 13:04 |
| cfhowlett_ | dukeraj if you really want to learn linux choose a distro and stick with it! | 13:04 |
| dukeraj | ok | 13:04 |
| ActionParsnip | cuyotte: Precise is rock solid and mature :-) | 13:04 |
| basiclaser | ActionParsnip: and if one has no other such devices? | 13:05 |
| ronaldsmazitis | KDE apps get segmentation fault | 13:05 |
| slikts_ | typically game fullscreen is exclusive, and borderless windowed is fullscreen as well, just not exclusive | 13:05 |
| ronaldsmazitis | WHY | 13:05 |
| slikts_ | and browser f11 and video fullscreen isn't exclusive either | 13:05 |
| ActionParsnip | basiclaser: not got a mobile phone with bluetooth? | 13:05 |
| === slikts_ is now known as slikts | ||
| dekatch | how it comes anyway that ubuntu 12.04 upgraded from ubunutu 11livecd supports all that stuff but linuxmint v16 doesnt? | 13:05 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I haven't installed nothing, as this Ubuntu 12.04 was working for long time | 13:05 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: so when youbrun skype in terminal it just says 'aborted'? | 13:05 |
| dukeraj | ok what do i do after i got new .iso , what do i do with the corrupted installed ubuntu 14, its there? | 13:06 |
| slikts | it's just a yet another instance in an endless stream of unity bugs | 13:06 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ActionParsnip, YES, you ask questions without any usable answers | 13:06 |
| ActionParsnip | dekatch: its a different distro so will behave differntly | 13:06 |
| cfhowlett_ | dukeraj if it's corrupted DELETE | 13:06 |

| === anonymous is now known as Guest16786 | ||
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: i cant see your system and you havent told us much so i need to ask questions about the system dont i? | 13:07 |
| slikts | ogramobile: there obviously is one, but I have no idea how to replicate it | 13:07 |
| dekatch | ActionParsnip, yea. but afaik mint is based on ubuntu | 13:07 |
| ronaldsmazitis | K3B, qt designer, qt creator all GET segmentation fault. | 13:07 |
| dekatch | so | 13:07 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: i have no idea what you have tried or anything, do I | 13:07 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ActionParsnip, I told everything | 13:07 |
| slikts | ogramobile: and I'll bet that it's been known since a long time ago | 13:07 |
| cfhowlett_ | !md5sum|dukeraj as far as an installed OS, verify 1. the ISO you downloaded and 2. the BOOT USB/CD. then install. | 13:07 |

| dekatch | the very basics should work | 13:07 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: then i need more info or i wouldnt be asking, would In | 13:07 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: why the attitude? | 13:08 |
| slikts | ogramobile: I was right — it's been known about for years | 13:08 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ActionParsnip, I have i5 INTEL, hd 3000, ubuntu 12.04 LTS, running unity | 13:08 |
| ronaldsmazitis | what would you do if you would loose connection with other people | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip | dekatch: depends on the distro. Some hardware wont run in Windows but run in Linux. This is also basics. | 13:08 |
| ronaldsmazitis | + couldn't BURN dvdS OR design QT apps | 13:09 |
| dekatch | ywell. but i am happy that it installed everything flawlessly. | 13:09 |

| ronaldsmazitis | I haven't installed nothing when these problems appeared | 13:10 |

| dekatch | i want to miminize application windows with a double click on titlebar | 13:10 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ActionParsnip, I have no idea where my 500 gb | 13:11 |

| ronaldsmazitis | are used by ubuntu | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | dekatch: that is a compiz setting if you use compiz | 13:11 |
| ronaldsmazitis | my backup would be 100 gb | 13:11 |
| ogramobile | sliktss, hiw can it be "known for years" if developers didnt get notified about it on the bugtracker ? | 13:11 |
| ronaldsmazitis | which is alot | 13:11 |
| dekatch | ActionParsnip, is that a package i can install? | 13:11 |
| ronaldsmazitis | no help on skype | 13:12 |
| ronaldsmazitis | still | 13:12 |
| ronaldsmazitis | do I have to call microsoft | 13:12 |
| slikts | ogramobile: it's probably in launchpad, I just haven't found it yet | 13:12 |
| ronaldsmazitis | on this one | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: but have you got a backup copy of your 'important' data on a removable drive, like a USB storage or clioud storage? | 13:12 |
| basiclaser | ActionParsnip: yeh ok i guess its not working then. It says bluetooth is on, and searching for devices, but does not detect my visible phone or headphones | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | dekatch: unity-tweak i believe, or compizconfig-settings-manager | 13:12 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ActionParsnip, WHY you give such questions , I don't want to reinstall or something, my system was perfect | 13:12 |
| ronaldsmazitis | license ended or something, or what | 13:13 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ? | 13:13 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: its a simple question, you say your data is important | 13:13 |

| ubottu | Krishnamurti, please see my private message | 13:15 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I am no noob to ubuntu, cause I know where those configs are stored, I have no idea why KDE apps and skype keeps crashing | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | me-1: no its no needed, you can even upgrade by booting to the 14.04 install CD | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: after completely removing skype and deps? | 13:16 |
| ronaldsmazitis | nothing helps | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: how did you install skype? | 13:16 |
| ronaldsmazitis | 2 years ago | 13:17 |
| ronaldsmazitis | package | 13:17 |
| me-1 | ActionParsnip, what about the apps I have already installed | 13:17 |
| ronaldsmazitis | why on earth it would stop working | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: yes its _always_ in a package. Is it from the Ubuntu repos or from the skype website? | 13:17 |
| ronaldsmazitis | one that was working | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Me-1: those will be updated | 13:17 |
| ronaldsmazitis | for long time | 13:18 |

| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: how did you install skype? | 13:18 |
| ronaldsmazitis | debian package on skype.com | 13:18 |
| dekatch | wow thanks ActionParsnip . that compizconfig tool offers alot. have to figure somezhing out now :) thanks brb | 13:18 |

| ronaldsmazitis | ++ qt designer, creator + k3b | 13:19 |
| ronaldsmazitis | and most kde apps | 13:19 |
| ronaldsmazitis | suddenly errors | 13:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: ok then try using the version from the Ubuntu repos. Its in the partner repo. You will need to run: sudo apt-get clean ,so that old debs are not used | 13:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: because there are two ways to install it, so trying the other way is intelligent, yes? | 13:20 |
| ronaldsmazitis | http://pastebin.com/PWmK4jzZ | 13:20 |
| Krishnamurti | ronaldsmazitis,why not look for skype in the software center? | 13:20 |
| ronaldsmazitis | what repo | 13:20 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ? | 13:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: the partner repo, second time | 13:20 |
| ronaldsmazitis | do I have to gradually know what is url of it | 13:20 |
| ronaldsmazitis | partner repo could be any | 13:21 |
| xangua | !partner | ronaldsmazitis | 13:21 |
| ubottu | ronaldsmazitis: Canonical's partner repositories provide a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 13:21 |
| xangua | ronaldsmazitis: I told you twice yesterday I believe | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: no its the partner repo. Its been in ubuntu forever | 13:21 |
| llutz | ronaldsmazitis: and that apt-get-thing is called "autoremove", not aurltoremove | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: as you are not a new ubuntu user i thought you'd know that | 13:21 |
| cfhowlett_ | ronaldsmazitis might be a good time for a coffee break - or anap | 13:21 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I might not have these problems at all if not mistery | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: also run: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: its a proprietary application so who knows. | 13:22 |
| ronaldsmazitis | 0 modernizētas, 0 instalētas no jauna, 0 tiks noņemtas un 0 netiks modernizētas. | 13:22 |
| ronaldsmazitis | nothing happened | 13:23 |

| Munster | !vm | zubuntu | 13:31 |
| ubottu | zubuntu: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 13:31 |
| zubuntu | i tried vm | 13:31 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: 2.2Gb for swap as you have 2Gb RAM | 13:31 |
| zubuntu | better to use multi boot | 13:31 |
| zubuntu | ActionParsnip ok then | 13:31 |
| zubuntu | is there anybody using thinkpad laptops here ? | 13:32 |
| zubuntu | i newly purchased my laptop and it has preinstalled windows | 13:32 |
| Munster | zubuntu, agreed, dual booting is less troublesome IME | 13:32 |
| zubuntu | if i format everything will go | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: for less than 2Gb RAM use double size for swap, 2Gb RAM or more use the same amount of swap as RAM. I use 1.1x | 13:32 |
| zubuntu | ActionParsnip so i will creat 2.2 or not ? | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: lots of people use thinkpads with Ubuntu | 13:33 |
| zubuntu | can u tell it in megabytes pls ? | 13:33 |
| cfhowlett_ | zubuntu small ram: I suggest lubuntu or xubuntu | 13:33 |
| zubuntu | cfhowlett_ i prefer native ubuntu | 13:33 |
| loa | can't understand function of swap and why i need do it twise as ram. | 13:33 |
| cfhowlett_ | zubuntu unity is a resource hog - your choice | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Zubuntu: 2252Mb | 13:33 |
| cfhowlett_ | !swap > loa | 13:33 |
| ubottu | loa, please see my private message | 13:33 |
| loa | always when pc start using swap it become unusable | 13:33 |
| zubuntu | loa i experienced that if u dont create swap partition ubuntu doesnt work stable | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: does your OS not have a calculator or something? | 13:33 |
| loa | for what reason then swap i needed. | 13:34 |
| zubuntu | ActionParsnip :p | 13:34 |
| zubuntu | thx dude | 13:34 |
| loa | zubuntu, dunno about swap, but on server there no swap at all and he is working non stop for years. | 13:34 |
| loa | about ubuntu * | 13:34 |
| zubuntu | hm | 13:34 |
| loa | desktop * | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Loa: When RAM fills your system will take data from RAM and put it in swap. Then when data in swap is needed it will switch it with data in RAM. Its like the pagefile in Windows | 13:35 |
| ronaldsmazitis | KDE applications get segmentation fault | 13:35 |
| ronaldsmazitis | and skype doesn't works | 13:35 |
| ronaldsmazitis | help me | 13:35 |
| roel | if you need your swap often youd better upgrade your memory | 13:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Loa: its why your drive goes crazy when you run lots of apps | 13:35 |
| loa | ActionParsnip, i understand for what swap used for, | 13:35 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: does it run in lxde? | 13:35 |
| roel | and when you use SSD then swap destroys it fairly quickly | 13:35 |
| ronaldsmazitis | no | 13:35 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: sounds like a bug then | 13:36 |
| zubuntu | which one do u suggest ? ubuntu 12.04 lts or 14.04 lts ? | 13:36 |
| compdoc | roel, thats not true | 13:36 |
| ronaldsmazitis | my system got f**** without notice | 13:36 |
| loa | i am about totally unsuble system when you run out totally phisical ram and become using swap. | 13:36 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I didn't install anything | 13:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: updates can do that. Calm down | 13:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: you must have, or another admin user | 13:36 |
| compdoc | dont worry about swap. if you cant use an SSD like any hard drive, then whats the point? | 13:36 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I hate this situation | 13:36 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I am the overlord here | 13:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: where? | 13:37 |
| ronaldsmazitis | planet earth | 13:37 |
| ronaldsmazitis | whatever | 13:37 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: if you say so, billions would disagree | 13:37 |
| zubuntu | i will upgrade to 8gb ram and SSD later :S | 13:37 |
| loa | compdoc, can you rephrase your point, i don't get it. | 13:37 |
| zubuntu | i need some money for that :S | 13:37 |
| loa | didn't get it * | 13:38 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ActionParsnip, I would say, don't write if you can't help | 13:38 |

| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: ok and one weekends crazy drinking costs...? | 13:38 |
| ronaldsmazitis | reporting bug for such wicked bug | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: use the CLI method then. | 13:38 |
| zubuntu | ram is cheap but SSD is still expensive to me | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue | 13:39 |

| ronaldsmazitis | I don't want to loose files filmed with 900 dollar worth camera | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: 12.04 is much more stable | 13:39 |
| zubuntu | i wanna try 14.04 | 13:40 |
| ronaldsmazitis | Ubuntu always bring issues | 13:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: what does skype have to do with images? | 13:40 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: then use it | 13:40 |
| ronaldsmazitis | system trashed by itself | 13:40 |
| ronaldsmazitis | thanks ubuntu | 13:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: reinstall and restore data from backup. Easy days | 13:40 |

| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: sure i'll send you a few 32Mb EDO SIMMs :-) | 13:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: again, reinstall and restore data from backup | 13:42 |

| ronaldsmazitis | this is messy | 13:42 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ubuntu suuuuuuucks | 13:42 |
| ronaldsmazitis | whatever | 13:42 |
| ActionParsnip | This is why we have backup | 13:43 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: if ubuntu sucks, dont use it if you like. | 13:43 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I wish I could switch without loosing something | 13:43 |
| ronaldsmazitis | always | 13:43 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: so you dont have baclup? | 13:43 |

| ronaldsmazitis | +++ | 13:44 |
| ronaldsmazitis | because I can't | 13:44 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: why do you not have backup if your data is sooooo important? | 13:44 |
| ronaldsmazitis | once damn account got locked | 13:44 |
| ronaldsmazitis | couldn't backup because data was crypted | 13:44 |
| ronaldsmazitis | now again | 13:44 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: and you can afford a 900$ camera but not a 100$ USB backuo drive.... | 13:44 |
| ronaldsmazitis | this is messs | 13:44 |
| llutz | trolling, ranting etc go somewhere else pls , this is support | 13:44 |
| ronaldsmazitis | not mine | 13:44 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: dont you think its hilarious | 13:44 |
| ronaldsmazitis | hell with you | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: no backup = data is disposable | 13:45 |
| alfonsojon | ^ | 13:45 |

| alfonsojon | ronaldsmazitis: Let's be a bit rational here. Just tell us your problem (as in what happened), and we'll see what we can do | 13:46 |
| alfonsojon | I severely doubt it's broken to the point it's irrecoverable | 13:46 |
| ronaldsmazitis | skype is Aborting. | 13:47 |
| alfonsojon | Unless you have a hardware problem | 13:47 |
| ronaldsmazitis | kde apps are segmenting failing | 13:47 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I have one DVD | 13:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: go do what you should have done ages agao. Buy a USB drive and boot to live CD. You can then access your data and put it on the USB. This is what is called a 'backup' you can then reinstall and reinstate the data. This is called a 'restore' | 13:47 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I will take movie files and system can go it's wat | 13:47 |
| ronaldsmazitis | way* | 13:47 |
| === AAchi||es is now known as zubuntu | ||
| alfonsojon | ronaldsmazitis: Sounds like a bad install | 13:47 |
| beilby | Using Ubuntu 14.04 I have a password set on my user but I can logon to desktop without a password. How do I enable password? | 13:47 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I use it for long time | 13:47 |
| alfonsojon | Install a fresh copy over your current copy | 13:47 |
| DusXMT | ronaldsmazitis: And if you hate ubuntu so much, you should try out a different distro. Debian likes to boast with stability, so you might try that | 13:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: doesnt matter | 13:48 |
| alfonsojon | It should take care of problems. | 13:48 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ubuntu sucks to have issues for no reason | 13:48 |
| alfonsojon | ronaldsmazitis: Most problems are user error... | 13:48 |
| ronaldsmazitis | It was working until one momment | 13:48 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: not worked in IT have you | 13:48 |
| ronaldsmazitis | like what? | 13:48 |
| alfonsojon | ronaldsmazitis: Were you doing anything when the issues cropped up? | 13:48 |
| ronaldsmazitis | how can f skype quit for reason? | 13:48 |
| alfonsojon | Anything in particular? | 13:48 |
| ronaldsmazitis | nothing | 13:48 |
| alfonsojon | ronaldsmazitis: Ask Microsoft, they develop Skype | 13:48 |
| ronaldsmazitis | i DID | 13:48 |
| alfonsojon | Skype on Linux has a bad history for stability | 13:48 |
| ronaldsmazitis | 13:48 | |
| alfonsojon | You can't really blame Ubuntu for that. | 13:49 |
| ronaldsmazitis | why | 13:49 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: you can connect to skype using pidgin but text only | 13:49 |
| blah123 | uvbuntu 14.04 for some reason the tab autocomplete/list doesn't work in my terminal.... | 13:49 |
| ronaldsmazitis | kde apps segmenting fault | 13:49 |
| ronaldsmazitis | for no reason | 13:49 |
| alfonsojon | ronaldsmazitis: Can you send us an error log? | 13:49 |
| dekatch | damn. ubuntu 12.04 is bought for now... ill stick to it till there are more drivers for my hardware avail.- everything works for now | 13:49 |
| ronaldsmazitis | I did nothign | 13:49 |
| alfonsojon | If they segfault, you should have a "Report a Bug" dialog appear | 13:49 |
| ronaldsmazitis | no KDE error report crashes | 13:49 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: is the ram healthy? | 13:49 |
| ronaldsmazitis | aswell | 13:49 |
| alfonsojon | Report said bug | 13:49 |
| alfonsojon | Done. | 13:49 |
| DusXMT | ronaldsmazitis: That might be filesystem corruption, we had such case yesterday, reinstalling the corrupt packages helped the person | 13:49 |
| alfonsojon | Actually, that's a good idea | 13:49 |
| dekatch | could you recommend me a tool to connect my samsung note 3? is there even a kies version? | 13:49 |
| alfonsojon | Run memtest-x86 | 13:49 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: you can test ram using memtest in Grub | 13:50 |
| alfonsojon | Restart while holding SHIFT, then select memtest-x86 with your arrow keys and hit enter | 13:50 |
| ronaldsmazitis | ok | 13:50 |
| zubuntu | how much space for windows and ubuntu do u suggest for 250 gb harddisk ? | 13:50 |
| alfonsojon | zubuntu: 125/125 | 13:50 |
| alfonsojon | :) | 13:50 |
| ActionParsnip | ronaldsmazitis: hold SHIFT at boot and Grub will show | 13:50 |
| dekatch | zubuntu, 60GB for windows | 13:50 |
| zubuntu | lol dekatch | 13:50 |
| alfonsojon | zubuntu: Depends on what you use each for, actually | 13:50 |
| xangua | dekatch: a recent version of ubuntu should have not problems using mtp for android devices | 13:50 |
| zubuntu | maybe 10 gb ? :p | 13:50 |
| zubuntu | alfonsojon windows will be for office and games | 13:51 |
| alfonsojon | zubuntu: Then give it around 65-70% | 13:51 |
| trijntje | zubuntu: the minimum for ubuntu is 8 Gb, but then you'll have to keep your data somewhere else, and don't install too many big programs | 13:51 |
| zubuntu | hm | 13:51 |
| alfonsojon | zubuntu: Give Windows around 175 | 13:51 |
| alfonsojon | And Ubuntu 75 | 13:51 |
| zubuntu | i see | 13:51 |
| dekatch | xangua, i am on 12.04 | 13:51 |
| alfonsojon | I'm sadly on Windows and stuck to it | 13:51 |
| zubuntu | thx alfonsojon | 13:51 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: my desktop OS is 4Gb used of 8Gb without /opt or swap or /home | 13:51 |
| alfonsojon | zubuntu: No problem. | 13:51 |
| zubuntu | why alfonsojon ? | 13:51 |
| alfonsojon | I have a 360GB hard drive | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | And it's mostly full | 13:52 |
| zubuntu | hm | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | I have no room for Ubuntu and no second hard drive. | 13:52 |
| zubuntu | u can use external hdd | 13:52 |
| zubuntu | bad | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | "and no second hard drive." | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | If I had one, I would use one | 13:52 |
| xangua | dekatch: then upgrade to a more recent version or try this (it worked for me when I was on precise) http://www.webupd8.org/2013/01/upgrade-to-gvfs-with-mtp-support-in.html | 13:52 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsojon: cleared the temp files out fully? | 13:52 |
| zubuntu | i wouldnt use windows but games and office needs it :S | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | ActionParsnip: CCleaned to crap | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | I have around 50-something GB free | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | I give Windows at least 32GB of head room, cause y'know | 13:52 |
| alfonsojon | Windows | 13:52 |
| ActionParsnip | zubuntu: office 365 runs in web browser :-) | 13:53 |
| alfonsojon | Google Docs > Office | 13:53 |
| lotuspsychje | guys, lets stick to ubuntu support plz | 13:53 |
| alfonsojon | Sorry lotus | 13:53 |
| dekatch | xangua, i am so happy that everything is working. i am feared of upgrading and lose 3d accel and such | 13:53 |
| WLM|weg | Someone knows a good alternative to OS X's Garageband? | 13:53 |
| alfonsojon | WLM|weg: Audacity | 13:53 |
| WLM|weg | I know Audacity | 13:53 |
| alfonsojon | That's not really an alternative | 13:53 |
| alfonsojon | But it's still good | 13:53 |
| WLM|weg | But does that have the built-in instruments? | 13:53 |
| dekatch | xangua, had linuxmint v16 installed yesterday. there nothing worked. no drivers avail | 13:54 |
| alfonsojon | Hmm... | 13:54 |
| alfonsojon | Well, that's not currently possible, BUT | 13:54 |
| WLM|weg | I can mix using Audacity, but I'd like to create music with it, like with instruments | 13:54 |
| WLM|weg | And I haven't got a real keyboard | 13:54 |
| alfonsojon | There's always this | 13:54 |
| alfonsojon | http://www.darlinghq.org/ | 13:54 |
| alfonsojon | Not currently working, but it's a good idea to keep an eye on it | 13:55 |
| alfonsojon | It's basically Wine, but for Darwin instead of Microsoft NT. | 13:55 |
| alfonsojon | = run OS X apps on Linux | 13:55 |
| WLM|weg | I found it two minutes ago. I was excited until I saw "At this point, it is unlikely that Darling will run your favorite OS X application." | 13:55 |
| alfonsojon | The day GarageBand works in that, your problem is solved | 13:55 |
| alfonsojon | Until then, fingers crossed. | 13:55 |
| WLM|weg | Well it doesn't need to be an exact copy of GarageBand though, just something that's able to do the same thing | 13:55 |
| dekatch | xangua, bookmarked the page. thanks | 13:56 |
| alfonsojon | WLM|weg: I'll crawl the internet in search for something of the like | 13:56 |
| alfonsojon | WLM|weg: I'll let you know if I find anything | 13:56 |
| WLM|weg | Okay, thanks! | 13:56 |
| zubuntu | Lenovo Recovery Partition will be delete :s | 13:56 |
| zubuntu | after i format | 13:56 |

| alfonsojon | I'm a follower of that blog and I just remembered that post. | 13:57 |
| alfonsojon | Not sure if you'll like that program, but it seems to get the job done. | 13:57 |
| alfonsojon | WLM|weg: There's also the other route of buying a Mac | 13:58 |
| alfonsojon | You can pick up a good Power Mac G5 on eBay for around $100 | 13:58 |
| alfonsojon | They're still good, although you'll be on an outdated architecture. | 13:58 |
| alfonsojon | I have a Power Mac G4 that I bought for $75 equipped with the iLife '09 suite, GarageBand included. | 13:59 |
| alfonsojon | I can tell you it does work very well for the job, considering it's 11 years old. | 13:59 |
| alfonsojon | I can also tell you that Kubuntu also runs quite well on this Mac. | 13:59 |
| Krishnamurti | have anyone use bcloud? | 13:59 |
| alfonsojon | Krishnamurti: Nope. | 13:59 |
| dekatch | what irc clients do you guys use? the preinstalled xchat looks weird. font and such. are the good alternatives you guys could tell? | 14:00 |
| Odd0002 | does anyone have any suggestions for a fast-booting ubuntu based distro for a decently old netbook? (1 GB RAM) with a gui? | 14:00 |
| epsilon | I have a Samsung 710N monitor of 17 inch. Its optimal resolution is 1280 x 1080 at 60 Hz. | 14:00 |
| epsilon | I have Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my laptop. | 14:00 |
| epsilon | I want to use only the Samsung monitor as an external monitor and I want laptop's screen be dark (turned off). | 14:00 |
| epsilon | In Displays application I chose Mirror Displays: unchecked. Resolution: 1280 x 1080. Launcher placement: Samsung. Sticky edges: On. Rotation: Normal. | 14:00 |
| epsilon | Questions: | 14:00 |
| epsilon | I can't find the frequency anywhere in Displays. How can I be sure that Ubuntu chose 60 Hz, the correct frequency for my monitor? (My laptop supports the optimal resolution and 60 Hz frequency of the monitor). | 14:00 |
| unopaste | epsilon 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 | 14:00 |
| alfonsojon | Odd0002: Elementary OS | 14:00 |
| Odd0002 | alfonsojon: does it have the ubuntu repos? | 14:00 |
| alfonsojon | Yep. | 14:00 |
| alfonsojon | It's based on 12.04 at the moment, however | 14:01 |
| alfonsojon | It's very stable though. | 14:01 |
| Odd0002 | oh | 14:01 |
| alfonsojon | epsilon: I believe it should be using the correct frequency automatically | 14:01 |
| Odd0002 | I want one that I won't have to reinstall for a long time... | 14:01 |
| Krishnamurti | <alfonsojon,why not? | 14:01 |
| alfonsojon | Krishnamurti: What do you mean? | 14:01 |
| alfonsojon | Odd0002: It's stable, I can tell you that. | 14:01 |

| dekatch | Odd0002, i am on 12.04 | 14:02 |
| dekatch | works flawlessly | 14:02 |
| philinux | dekatch;~ xchat looks fine here | 14:02 |
| alfonsojon | Ubuntu itself should actually run well | 14:02 |
| Krishnamurti | i install one just now,great | 14:02 |
| alfonsojon | Anything will run better than Windows on a netbook, just putting that out there | 14:02 |
| daftykins | not anything ;) | 14:02 |
| Odd0002 | well it has ubuntu 14.04 minimal with openbox right now | 14:02 |
| epsilon | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7392916/ please | 14:03 |
| alfonsojon | Odd0002: That sounds a bit restrictive. | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Odd0002: xpud boots superfast but is not ubuntu based | 14:03 |
| blah123 | my god ... this nautilus thing is so crap... how the hell do I move up folder when I'm in ssh connection? the left and right buttons just take me to my localmachine home folder. | 14:03 |
| Odd0002 | but the network disconnects exactly 5 minutes after it connects, and I can't reconnect afterwords | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Odd0002: minimal + openbox = my favourite | 14:03 |
| alfonsojon | blah123: Try Dolpin, if you're not a fan of KDE, then try Pantheon Files | 14:03 |

| dekatch | guys, no joke. i spent 2hours yesterday on linuxmint channel. they really helped me out trying to get my hardware running. but it turned out that there is currently no driver avail. since my hardware was released 04/2014.. amd apu | 14:04 |
| alfonsojon | ...and countless others. | 14:04 |
| Odd0002 | ActionParsnip: I would use it, but I'm having all sorts of problems with networking (wireless). How do you do it? | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | blah123: mount it as a local folder and it will be managed | 14:04 |
| dekatch | and now 12.04 has anything preinstalled :) | 14:04 |
| alfonsojon | dekatch: You'll need to wait for AMD to throw something our way | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Odd0002: are there lots of networks on the same channel? | 14:04 |
| dekatch | yep true alfonsojon | 14:05 |
| Odd0002 | ActionParsnip: no, it worked really well with all other versions of ubuntu (from 9.10) | 14:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Odd0002: can you pastebin the output of: sudo lshw -C network; lsb_release -a; uname -a | 14:05 |
| alfonsojon | dekatch: I had the same situation with a Windows PC | 14:05 |
| epsilon | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7392916/ | 14:05 |
| alfonsojon | It was perfectly functional, but the person wanted to update to Windows 7 | 14:05 |
| alfonsojon | I did a clean install, got all the drivers | 14:05 |
| blah123 | ActionParsnip: that's what I did. problem is I'm usually put into my users's home folder upon connecting. and now for some reason I can't go out of my home folder , I'm not jailed or anything, just nautilus refuses to move up the directory structure.... | 14:05 |
| alfonsojon | Turns out the driver didn't exist for Windows 7 and the Vista one was horribly broken | 14:05 |
| Odd0002 | ActionParsnip: 1 sec, it's on another machine | 14:05 |
| dekatch | alfonsojon, well, windows runs on it. but i wont afford another license | 14:06 |
| blah123 | nevermind, jjust had to reconnect and it magically fixed itself | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip | blah123: i use pcmanfm, kicks ass | 14:06 |
| alfonsojon | ...there are ways | 14:06 |
| * alfonsojon is innocent | 14:06 | |
| dekatch | i want to use this nettop as a enery saving HTPC | 14:06 |

| alfonsojon | There's always the i3-4130T | 14:06 |
| alfonsojon | It's a great CPU with a TDP of only 35W | 14:06 |
| Odd0002 | what about ARM? | 14:07 |
| alfonsojon | There's that route too | 14:07 |
| dekatch | true. but i already bought the amd shit :) i know intel is better for linux | 14:07 |
| dekatch | but luckily 12.04 does its job :P | 14:07 |
| Odd0002 | ActionParsnip: pastebinit doesn't work with those commands... | 14:09 |
| dekatch | pastebin.org picpaste.org | 14:10 |
| dekatch | those the ones i usually use | 14:10 |
| Odd0002 | dekatch: for a computer without a graphical interface? | 14:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Odd0002: copy the text and use a web based pastebin manually..... | 14:10 |
| dekatch | Odd0002, oh sry :) | 14:11 |
| epsilon | I posted my question at http://paste.ubuntu.com/7392916/ as you said. | 14:11 |

| django | ronaldsmazitis, right I have a lenovo ideapad with nvidia/intel graphics..i want to know how i can disable my nvidia in bios so my computer doesnt get hot when i run ubuntu | 14:49 |
| ronaldsmazitis | well, you should try NVIDIA drivers | 14:50 |
| dekatch | django, no you wont disable your internal gpu | 14:50 |
| ronaldsmazitis | but linus once said fuck you nvidia (sorry for quete ) | 14:50 |
| django | I updated nvidia drivers through the update manager and ubuntu died | 14:50 |
| sgo11 | django, if your bios provide that option, then go ahead and disable it. if not, you are out of luck. | 14:51 |
| ronaldsmazitis | *profanity (amazing word) is not allowed so I'm sorry | 14:51 |

| DGJones | django: It has been for me, I've not had any issues since I started using it while it was in development | 14:55 |
| ronaldsmazitis | via more testers will find more bugs | 14:55 |

| StupidDanbo | I did this like half a dozen times a couple months ago and didn't think I'd make such a stupid mistake. | 16:14 |
| bekks | StupidDanbo: You have to figure out whats your USB and whats your disk. | 16:14 |
| StupidDanbo | how? | 16:14 |

| dgarstang | Ubuntu 14, NVIDIA GK106... what drivers should I use? a) NVIDIA ones, b) Ubuntu ones, c) proprietary ones? | 16:53 |
| redmaniac | ogra_ I assume it doesn, since I can manually make it work with PAUV | 16:53 |
| ogra_ | then it most likely is just a "stereo out" one | 16:54 |
| redmaniac | ogra_, my problem is that the switching is done incorrectly | 16:54 |
| StupidDanbo | I wish i knew what to do. I always make these mistakes. and I go "oh god, how do I stop doing this?" I can't rely on my mind to do it, because my mind keeps fucking it up like that. I need like a checklist or something. | 16:54 |

| hexacode | anyone know how to install openssl from source? i downloaded the latest version that wasn't heartbleed vulnerable and i did a configure, make , make install...but when i type openssl version -a i still have the affected 1.0.1e version instead of the 1.0.1g version i just downloaded from the openssl website | 17:01 |
| llutz | !sslbug | 17:01 |
| ubottu | A fix for the recent OpenSSL vulnerabilities (2014-0076 & 0160) has been pushed to the Ubuntu repositories, see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-2165-1/ and http://heartbleed.com/ for more information. | 17:01 |
| llutz | hexacode: you want to read that, instead of building your own version | 17:02 |
| Voyage | hi | 17:03 |
| SchrodingersScat | hexacode: have you tried 'which openssl'? | 17:03 |
| StupidDanbo | just mounting a HDD could mess up data recovery? or is that only for ones with hardware failure? | 17:03 |
| Voyage | In crontab. how to run a command ever 1 minut? 01 * * * * curl 'http://google.com' > /homt/moez/temp.txt ? | 17:03 |
| SchrodingersScat | hexacode: and compare that to where you installed your compiled version of openssl | 17:03 |
| llutz | Voyage: "* * * * * cmd" your 01 * * * is on h+01 every hour | 17:04 |
| squeakytoy2 | Can I ask a very newbie question? Given I have an Ubuntu server edition (no GUI/Window management) is the prefered way to have multiple terminals, is by creating them with the ALTF-kyes? | 17:04 |
| hexacode | http://pastebin.com/McEvqYzV SchrodingersScat llutz check this pastebin out...its my openssl version reported by aptitude...im using a kali repo so im not sure the post will help, since im not going straight up ubuntu | 17:04 |
| llutz | Voyage: man 5 crontab | 17:04 |
| Voyage | llutz, sorr? | 17:04 |
| squeakytoy2 | ALT-F-keys?* | 17:05 |
| SchrodingersScat | !info screen | squeakytoy2: I would use screen | 17:05 |
| ubottu | squeakytoy2: I would use screen: screen (source: screen): terminal multiplexer with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation. In component main, is optional. Version 4.1.0~20120320gitdb59704-9 (trusty), package size 613 kB, installed size 936 kB | 17:05 |
| llutz | hexacode: and we don't support kali | 17:05 |
| Voyage | llutz, ok. so 01 * * * will runn on every hour:01 ? | 17:05 |
| llutz | Voyage: 01 * * * * yes | 17:05 |
| squeakytoy2 | SchrodingersScat, i have no idea what you just said | 17:05 |
| ogra_ | cron: "m h dom mon dow command" | 17:06 |
| StupidDanbo | does CrunchBang typically use ext3 filesystem? | 17:07 |
| SchrodingersScat | squeakytoy2: once you are logged into the machine you can run 'screen' and then you are running things within screen, and then you can do 'ctrl-a c' to create new screens and move between them with 'ctrl-a n', 'ctrl-a p' etc. | 17:07 |
| ogra_ | StupidDanbo, better to ask that in a crunchbang channel ... how would we know ? | 17:07 |
| squeakytoy2 | SchrodingersScat, is that better then the ALT-F solutions? | 17:07 |
| SchrodingersScat | !best | squeakytoy2 | 17:08 |
| StupidDanbo | well what does unbutu typicalloy use? | 17:08 |
| ogra_ | ext4 | 17:08 |
| squeakytoy2 | SchrodingersScat, i will rephrase. Whats the drawback of using the ALT-F way? | 17:08 |
| SchrodingersScat | squeakytoy2: up to you, but worth looking it up to sound if it's something you want, there's alternatives as well. first drawback I can think of with the alt-f keys is what happens when you want to do that remotely? also how many of those f windows do you have? | 17:09 |
| StupidDanbo | I still can't tell from the link provided on file recovery which program is best used for my purpose. I'm guessing only Gpart is good for this? | 17:10 |
| squeakytoy2 | SchrodingersScat, i have multiple F-windows. and i am using digital ocean, so.. itsounds like its a good enough solution | 17:10 |
| squeakytoy2 | SchrodingersScat, thanks | 17:10 |
| StupidDanbo | since it says it does it based on "guesses" and Testdisk seems to just be an alternative to GNU Parted... which don't describe anything complicated. but I'm not sure omission is sufficient information. | 17:11 |

| Armag3dd0n1 | not sure how to check that on ubuntu :( | 17:26 |
| llutz | Armag3dd0n1: i'd guess they mean the same ratio. | 17:27 |
| llutz | Armag3dd0n1: 0% i'd guess windows cannot read the values correctly at all | 17:27 |
| Armag3dd0n1 | yeah, probably. | 17:27 |

| v0lksman | uhg...anyone know how to get the startup disk creator to actually work? | 17:40 |
| david1 | I believe it only works with ubuntu ISOs, and derivatives. | 17:40 |
| david1 | I personally find that the only consistant way to make a startup disk | 17:40 |
| v0lksman | david1: xbmcbuntu | 17:40 |
| david1 | is by using dd | 17:40 |
| david1 | huh... IDK then. | 17:41 |
| david1 | try using DD to manually write the image to the partition | 17:41 |
| v0lksman | david1: got docs? | 17:43 |
| david1 | ? | 17:43 |
| v0lksman | trying unetbootin cause I like to be lame...but if that doesn't work I'll go the DD route | 17:43 |
| v0lksman | is it just dd if=foo.iso of=/dev/sdg1 | 17:44 |
| v0lksman | ? | 17:44 |
| v0lksman | don't I need some fancy MBR stuff? | 17:44 |

| david1 | nope | 17:45 |
| llutz | v0lksman: make sure to use the correct device, dd won't ask before writing. you may add bs=4M | 17:45 |
| v0lksman | well why the hell am I messing with the GUI then? hahaha | 17:45 |
| david1 | the way I remember it | 17:45 |

| v0lksman | :) | 17:46 |

| v0lksman | if it's just a matter of extracting the ISO to the device that's too easy | 17:47 |
| drewd | is there a package for xdirectfb in ubuntu? | 17:47 |
| david1 | set it to a boot flag | 17:47 |
| david1 | using gparted | 17:47 |
| llutz | v0lksman: the iso just has to be a hybrid-iso (*buntu-iso are) | 17:47 |
| whoever | david1: you could also setthe boot flag with fdisk | 17:48 |
| v0lksman | llutz david1: if it's not you would dd to the device then use gparted to mark the partition as bootable? | 17:48 |
| whoever | and then no need for gparted | 17:48 |

| veryhappy | hey guys, please perhaps can someone tell me if i do something wrong or if it's possible that GRUB can't be installed on a hard disk due to unknown reasons. GRUB is telling me every time i try to install it "Installation finished. No error reported." and i tried to start GRUB also with another notebook by swapping the hard disks of my notebook and my netbook, no GRUB was installed. What can... | 18:39 |
| veryhappy | ...i do to install GRUB in my MBR of /dev/sda? Please help | 18:39 |
| bekks | EmsY: Did you check /dev/dvd1 exists? If not, check it. | 18:39 |
| schmee | I'm having a real hard time with grub myself | 18:39 |
| EmsY | bekks: how? I'm a newbie at ubuntu | 18:40 |
| OerHeks | ronaldsmazitis, i guess 'Y' is fine | 18:40 |
| ronaldsmazitis | tnx | 18:40 |
| bekks | EmsY: ls -lha /dev/dvd1 | 18:40 |
| schmee | I keep using boot repair and it works for only one reboot | 18:40 |
| veryhappy | EmsY: might be you first have to execute "/usr/share/docs/libdvdread4/install-css.sh" | 18:40 |
| EmsY | bekks: never mind, I don't need to play that disk anymore... | 18:40 |
| beltorak | hi all; i am trying to patch an ubuntu package, following the guides as best I can. I am stuck with how to add an option to the build's ./configure invocation. | 18:41 |

| benz50 | EmsY, I had to choose /dev/cdrom/ and not /dev/dvd1 | 18:41 |
| schmee | could multiple instances of grub cause a the grub rescue prpompt to keep coming up? anyone? | 18:41 |

| schmee | sdc3 is my linux partition, which im having a really hard time trying to mount | 18:45 |

| bekks | sudormrf_: What does "isnt working right" mean? | 18:45 |
| schmee | i just had to chkdsk my windows partition, so maybe the ext4 file system needs repair? | 18:46 |

| schmee | so a multiple instance of grub on sda could be it | 18:48 |

| schmee | at one point i did boot repair and i think i hit install grub on all drives | 18:48 |
| Beldar | schmee, Grub is on the sda HD, you only have one gpt hd sdd | 18:48 |

| guest-ZIlnzx | iam having a problem with login i had set my login for my user name to do not ask on login now when i boot up and it shows login my user name comes up in login box and when i try to use the password it will not let me login | 18:50 |
| snpfte | join #finland | 18:50 |
| schmee | but im really thankful for your looking | 18:50 |
| Slart | Con: family friendly channel.. even for spanish speakers | 18:50 |
| schmee | that bootinfo might be a few bootrepairs behind | 18:50 |
| guest-ZIlnzx | How do i fix this | 18:50 |
| Beldar | schmee, gpt is a partitioning type, your sdd is a hard drive showing in the script, sdd has a gpt partition table. | 18:50 |
| Con | guest-ZIlnzx, have you tried resetting the password? | 18:51 |
| skinux | I have video+sound using "Unity" desktop, but not "Ubuntu" desktop, any tips for troubleshooting? | 18:51 |
| schmee | thats right, i remember trying to install it there to bypass all the issues I had been having | 18:51 |
| Beldar | schmee, Run a fresh bootinfo summary, you can do kit only from the bootrepair app. | 18:51 |
| doomlord_ | is there anything that will run on a linux desktop that can function as an apple airplay video receiver , i saw a totem plugin claiming to do this but unfortunately it didn't seem to work | 18:51 |
| Beldar | it* | 18:51 |
| schmee | and now i may have too many instances? | 18:51 |
| guest-ZIlnzx | can not do it in the user setting will not allow me | 18:51 |

| pkug | hi there, anybody experienced the extreme slowness *beyond belief* with software-center ? i clicked on a downloaded package and for more than 5 minutes it's still freezing the netbook, looks like a complete xubuntu reinstall took less time.. | 18:52 |
| OerHeks | guest-ZIlnzx, sounds like this .Xauthority issue, http://askubuntu.com/a/281969 | 18:53 |
| Beldar | !details > kazbek | 18:53 |
| ubottu | kazbek, please see my private message | 18:53 |
| schmee | sure i gotcha | 18:53 |
| Beldar | schmee, Cool, ;) | 18:53 |
| xangua | pkug: you can try synaptic or lubuntu software center for software management | 18:54 |
| schmee | should have it in a sec | 18:54 |
| schmee | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7394436/ | 18:54 |
| xangua | pkug: if you aim for low resources, ubuntu software center is not the best solution | 18:55 |
| schmee | so im on the livecd now, I could run boot repair, and it would work, but once I go to windows it seems it breaks grub. | 18:56 |
| pkug | xangua: i understand, will definitely do that.. but with pretty new netbook with 2gb ram which i bought just 1 year ago should this behavior be expected ? it seems like a bug to me.. | 18:56 |
| srock | distrowatch | 18:56 |
| schmee | although i cant say linux would work more than once | 18:56 |
| schmee | cuz it usually breaks before i can run linux a second time Beldar | 18:56 |
| kazbek | Beldar: i have 4 partitions on my hdd, sda1 has grub on it, sda2 has 14.04 (using sda3 as swap), and sda4 has a LUKS-encrypted set of two virtual disks (running a debian-based install with a custom kernel and a swap). both installs have sda1 mounted as boot. the problem is, the encrypted needs special options for grub for it to open the drive correctly, and it's trying to add those to the boot instructions for 14.04 too. | 18:57 |
| bekks | schmee: So what are you doing to "break" it? It doesnt magically break on its own. | 18:57 |
| Beldar | schmee, Grub is on the sda HD in it's mbr put it first in the bios | 18:57 |
| pkug | xangua: it doesn't look it should be doing cosmic computations, it's just a software center, doesn't even have a nice GUI :) | 18:57 |
| Beldar | kazbek, I know nothing about luks, so the channel will be better for details. ;) | 18:57 |
| kazbek | Beldar: #grub then? | 18:58 |
| Beldar | kazbek, Would not hurt, from your description, but this is not outside this channels help, just info. | 18:59 |
| schmee | ok, I'll try that. bekks, after bootrepair finishes, i reboot succesfully to the grub menu, boot into windows, reboot again, and grub loads into that rescue modes, saying it cant find some crazy long alphanumeric code, which i think links to my linux partition | 18:59 |
| Beldar | schmee, The bootrepair app has a bootinfo summary button on it's opening gui, this run the script only, no repair, lets see it. | 19:00 |
| guest-ZIlnzx | thank you Derheks and con had to move a desk but i am back | 19:00 |
| Beldar | runs* | 19:00 |
| schmee | but i remember one of the times using boot repair and selecting "install grub on all drives" so maybe multiple instances messing with each other? | 19:00 |
| whoever | for hd in /dev/disk/by-id/ata*; do | 19:01 |
| whoever | 3 echo awk '{print $2} '$hd | 19:01 |
| schmee | Beldar i think thats what i gave you before, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7394436/ | 19:01 |
| schmee | thats what i did to get that url at least | 19:02 |
| bekks | schmee: There arent "multiple instances". | 19:02 |

| slikts | Frag-O-Byte: you realize that your link is utterly useless? | 19:36 |
| Frag-O-Byte | why? | 19:37 |
| Random832 | Beldar: the symptom is the same one everyone's reporting everywhere - error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found. | 19:37 |
| bagindov | Slart: i dont know the command | 19:37 |
| slikts | Frag-O-Byte: my problem is that the mic gets disabled automatically, and I have no idea why | 19:38 |
| Random832 | i'm able to boot by using the bios boot menu | 19:38 |
| Slart | bagindov: hmm.. but you can change it using the standard keys on your laptop? | 19:38 |
| slikts | I issue a challenge for anyone to tell me what could be turning my mic off | 19:38 |
| slikts | the reward is 5 dogecoins | 19:38 |
| bagindov | yeah, but when reboot, it come back again, it hurts my eyes | 19:38 |
| OerHeks | Frag-O-Byte, some issues are solved by installing pavucontrol >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure#Step_6 | 19:39 |
| Beldar | Random832, That bug seems easily fixed by reloading the mbr, in the first post here. My self I would just purge grub and reinstall it from the desktop or a chroot from a live cd. | 19:39 |

| Slart | bagindov: not really sure.. if you knew the command you could run that at login or system startup | 19:40 |
| Random832 | i can workaround by pressing f9 at boot to get a menu, but i have no way to boot to windows | 19:40 |
| Beldar | Random832, Ah, besides here the ubuntu forum has several users focused on this area that are really good at this, you may be familiar with them and the use of the bootscript. | 19:40 |
| Random832 | who? where? | 19:41 |

| foofoobar | Hi. Is there a good way to sync specified folders with google drive? | 19:44 |
| foofoobar | I found a lot of small tools, but they all look premature | 19:44 |
| OerHeks | !info grive | 19:45 |
| ubottu | grive (source: grive): Google Drive client for GNU/Linux. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.2.0-1.1 (trusty), package size 147 kB, installed size 535 kB | 19:45 |
| foofoobar | OerHeks, but grive only allows to sync one folder, I want to backup a few folders (/foo/bar, /foobar, /barfoo) | 19:47 |
| OerHeks | foofoobar, see this url for more info and screenshots > http://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/ubuntu-google-drive-client-grive-and-grive-tools but dont use that ppa, use the regular one in the repositorys | 19:47 |
| OerHeks | if that is not an option, put it in one folder? cronjob can do that or watch utility | 19:48 |

| foofoobar | OerHeks, copying all files in one folder just for backup? My disk is not big enough for this.. | 19:50 |
| foofoobar | Does grive work with symlinks? | 19:50 |
| OerHeks | foofoobar, never tested that | 19:51 |
| foofoobar | There are a few things that Grive does not do at the moment: - symbolic links support | 19:51 |
| foofoobar | so it does not :/ | 19:51 |
| mikey__ | Anyone know if a .deb file is coming out soon for elixir? | 19:51 |

| Codmadnesspro | So wait if im on the software centre and i like a application how do i know the package name in terminal? | 20:20 |
| Slart | Codmadnesspro: it should be a gui program.. start it and it will fetch package lists.. you can search for packages and so on.. it's not that hard | 20:20 |
| bekks | Slart: I have non clue what you are talking about - synaptic is a package manager, synaptics is a touchpad software. | 20:20 |

| Slart | Codmadnesspro: actually.. if you press the "more info" button in the software center and check the Version field.. I think the first part there is the package name | 20:25 |
| Shadow365 | 2 days and I still haven't figured out how to get samba and permissions to work in Ubuntu. I'll try my luck with CentOS tomorrow though I doubt that it'll help. | 20:26 |
| aguitel_ | when will be available mate desktop in ubuntu repos? | 20:27 |
| Slart | Shadow365: samba is a weird beast.. I don't think it will be very different on other distros.. it's still samba | 20:27 |
| bekks | aguitel_: It is. | 20:27 |
| Shadow365 | I know | 20:27 |
| aguitel_ | bekks, no working | 20:27 |
| trism | aguitel_: it is working in 14.10 only missing a few things | 20:27 |
| trism | aguitel_: the theme is fixed now that mate-settings-daemon is working | 20:28 |
| aguitel_ | trism, ok | 20:28 |
| Shadow365 | Slart: Weid too. When I share a desktop directory it works without a hitch but when I try to share anything from my second drive (internal, ext4, automounted) it shows the folder but you can't open it | 20:28 |
| Shadow365 | I've googled so much into it that whatever I enter related to samba into Google all the results are purple lol | 20:29 |

| slikts | I have ubuntu installed currently, and I want to also install windows on a separate hdd for dual booting, what's the best approach for this? installing windows and then reinstalling grub? | 20:31 |
| Shadow365 | Slart: The deal here is…we have 2 Macs in our office, 1 windows workstation and the rest are windows computers that need file sharing but only very small stuff. I considered just installing Windows server on the fucker and being done with it BUT for some stupid reason I thought that linux - mac might have some special protocol for sharing stuff instead of just samba again | 20:31 |
| trism | DzAirmaX: 99-footer was dropped in 14.04 from /etc/update-motd.d/ | 20:31 |
| trism | DzAirmaX: basically all it did is check if /etc/motd.tail is readable and cat it | 20:32 |

| Shadow365 | slikts: I've had trouble with it before and I've been trying to set it up to work for 2 days on Ubuntu but that's probably due to me being a stupid fucker and not knowing how to workaround the issue I'm having as compared to a flaw in itself. | 20:35 |

| trism | mitch_reward: maybe, anyway you are getting that error because you have a version from -updates installed but now you are trying to install something older from -release because -updates is disabled | 21:11 |
| trism | mitch_reward: technically an old version from -updates because it is now at 1.4, if you use software-properties-gtk it should be easy to enable otherwise add a line like I had above for saucy-updates | 21:12 |
| mitch_reward | not sure to really get you.. and what would you suggest | 21:12 |
| mitch_reward | trism, ok | 21:12 |
| trism | mitch_reward: you should also enable security since you probably have that disabled too | 21:12 |
| Bashing-om | Fatalnix: The number of 'inodes' is dependent on the size of the partition. When the partition is created one may speicify the number of 'inodes' from that of the default. | 21:13 |
| mitch_reward | trism, thanks mate, am gonna check it right now | 21:13 |
| Bashing-om | Fatalnix: 'IF' -> df -i <- says no more inodes, all you can do at that point is start removing files. | 21:16 |
| Weez | another question, i am on 12.04.4 probably wont upgrade until 14.04.1 maybe even .2 comes out just to be on the safe side but "typically" is it a safe upgrade from LTS-LTS releases.

| svemirko | i have installed and working ubuntu 8.04 and the most i can get out of the machine, and i have a partition which contains very important data on jfs and i cannot access it | 23:06 |
| svemirko | anyone knows how do i do this? | 23:07 |
| innocent95 | svemirko, 8.4 is not supported | 23:07 |
| fermulator | svemirko: what OS are you currently running? (do you have any other systems with newer operating systems that you could move the hard drive to?) | 23:08 |
| innocent95 | svemirko, update your Ubuntu version to one which is supported | 23:08 |
| linus | @svermirko if you have 08.04 running you should be able to mount you partition | 23:08 |
| Beldar | svemirko, Generally you would use a live environment, describe the cannot access, how are you trying? | 23:08 |
| svemirko | i cannot mount the drive, it says that it has a wrong fs... the well known error msg | 23:08 |
| svemirko | i tried fsck but i lack fsck.jfs | 23:09 |
| fermulator | svemirko: what is the mount command you're using? -- see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=951409 for some examples | 23:09 |
| Beldar | svemirko, and the file system is a? | 23:09 |
| svemirko | for installation i have ext3 | 23:09 |
| svemirko | and cannot mount jfs | 23:09 |
| nonya | how do i fix the firefox problem I have reset it still the same http://imagebin.org/309054 | 23:10 |
| Beldar | svemirko, Pastebin a sudo fdisk -l and identify the partition your trying to get to. | 23:10 |
| fermulator | Suggest: creating a quick pastebin: with;; "sudo fdisk -l", and whatever other commands you've tried that present the error message | 23:10 |
| linus | ok then you need to get that drive on a newer system | 23:10 |
| svemirko | i tried through the graphic interface as well as mount with help of man | 23:10 |
| linus | you are probably missing the packages to mount that type of file system, and with such an old distro you will have difficulty adding them | 23:10 |
| _[myth | svemirko, i'm not sure you read the replies to your question :/ | 23:10 |
| svemirko | yeah, the system is not supported, i tried apt-get but to no avail | 23:11 |
| svemirko | i also manually downloaded the package of jfsutils | 23:11 |
| svemirko | but cannot install them because of the compiler error | 23:12 |
| _[myth | svemirko, your ubuntu version is not supported on this channel. | 23:12 |
| _[myth | Try upgrading to 14.04 LTS | 23:12 |
| svemirko | which again i cannot fix due to apt=get not working | 23:12 |
| linus | @myth really? you think hes running 08.04 on a system and it will update to 14.04? | 23:12 |
| svemirko | yeah i know it is not supported, i noted that the 8 is the most i can get out of the machine to work with because its 15 years old | 23:13 |
| nonya | plus i have no sound events working on here and I have allready check the box in the sessions for event sounds | 23:13 |
| svemirko | so i cannot ugrade further | 23:13 |
| _[myth | Fresh install might help | 23:13 |
| svemirko | this machine cannot run 14.04 i guess... | 23:13 |
| svemirko | that is why i dont have it | 23:13 |
| * Beldar notes jfs is a file system, doh | 23:13 | |
| fermulator | nonya: This topic describes a similar problem: https://support.mozilla.org/ta/questions/998416 | 23:13 |
| linus | if you want you could try running a newer version from cd or usb but i dont think 14.04 will work | 23:14 |
| linus | id use 12.04 ive had good results using it with older systems | 23:14 |
| _[myth | You may use Live CD to test whether it works on your device or not | 23:14 |
| fermulator | svemirko: agree with linux, if you can't get JFS utils installed, and can't upgrade, definitely you'll want to boot off a live CD/USB, even on older systems should load fine for you to get your job done | 23:14 |
| Codmadnesspro | How comes i cannot edit vpn in network connections? | 23:15 |
| linus | if you still cant get a live session running from a disc or usb, id try xubuntu or lubuntu | 23:15 |
| svemirko | i can boot live... the 8.04 version | 23:15 |
| svemirko | i can try newer but i doubt it will work | 23:15 |
| Beldar | svemirko, I would boot a more up to date live and make sure it has jfsutil and try. | 23:15 |
| svemirko | can i do this from a live cd? | 23:15 |
| nonya | This is becoming more and more unstable | 23:15 |
| svemirko | ok | 23:15 |
| svemirko | i will download a newer one | 23:15 |
| svemirko | you suggest 12? | 23:15 |
| linus | yes 12.04 | 23:15 |
| svemirko | can give it a shot | 23:16 |
| nonya | i did safe mode fermulator | 23:16 |
| nonya | same problem | 23:16 |
| linus | thats where i would start | 23:16 |
| _[myth | svemirko, download iso from Ubuntu official website, write it into your CD/USB, plug it into your computer, and reboot | 23:16 |
| Bashing-om | Goles: I am back, got off into other places. Server with a gui ? Many I see say go as light as possible // And it is advised that a GUI in a server invironment is a security risk, big time. | 23:16 |
| daftykins | svemirko: how much RAM does this ancient machine have? | 23:16 |
| Beldar | svemirko, You know how to turn off the live cd/usb and access the repos if needed for the jfsutil? | 23:16 |
| svemirko | tnx myth, i know the process :) | 23:16 |
| Goles | Bashing-om: I use freenx to startup a gui when I really need it (it's a home server) | 23:16 |
| _[myth | GUI is option, and you may turn on/off or install/uninstall it at any time | 23:17 |
| Codmadnesspro | How comes i cannot edit vpn in network connections? | 23:17 |
| Goles | the problem is that with the new gnome unity thing freenx seems to fail | 23:17 |
| Goles | ( vnc too AFAIK) | 23:17 |
| svemirko | can i try to save data to usb from a live boot? | 23:17 |
| fermulator | nonya: when did it start happening? any ideas/hints as to what could have changed? | 23:17 |
| daftykins | svemirko: yes | 23:17 |
| linus | 12.04 still has three years left on the cycle so it will have all the necessary packages available, and you can install them while running a live session even if they wont be permanent | 23:17 |
| fermulator | nonya: (that URL I linked doesn't even have a solution, sorry) | 23:17 |
| Bashing-om | Goles: Welp, now you know more than I, So, now what is at issue with your server ? | 23:17 |
| dweez | Bashing-om: And knowing is half the battle. G.I. JOE!!! | 23:17 |
| svemirko | does the 12.04 support jfs out of the box? | 23:18 |
| nonya | It happened after xubuntu update | 23:18 |
| nonya | fermulator, | 23:18 |
| nonya | Be back in a few minutes gota go potty | 23:18 |
| Goles | Bashing-om isn't there a way to change my default window manager to the 'classic & old' gnome? | 23:19 |
| Goles | Bashing-om: that would solve the remaining issues for sure. | 23:19 |
| fermulator | nonya: Well I guess it could be one of many problems... ; I'm no expert here, but I might guess: 1) some random packages got upgraded that broke something 2) perhaps the newer versions are trying to "draw" in such a way that your graphics driver doesn't support ... | 23:19 |
| Goles | I would try to install xfce4 but don't really have the time :( | 23:19 |
| linus | yes i think jfs will work on a default install of 12.04 | 23:20 |
| Bashing-om | Goles: I am aware of a couple of ways. One is install a Windows manager ( I would not and don't ) the other is to install the desk top you want and start it from the terminal. | 23:20 |
| linus | have you checked out this thread? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=951409 | 23:20 |
| minimec | Goles: 'sudo apt-get install gnome-session-flashback' gives you to additional 'classic' gnome sessions. One with metacity, one with compiz. | 23:21 |
| === 7JTAAOQU8 is now known as asturel_ | ||
| Goles | minimec: it's crazy but it appears that session-flashback doesn't play well with Ubuntu 14, this is the output that I get https://gist.github.com/Goles/b9750f139397c81db714 | 23:22 |
| Goles | ( when trying to install it I mean ) | 23:22 |
| acx111 | i am a desktop newbie and i managed to install 14.04 on my old PIII laptop. My laptop has 1 usb port which is damaged so i can only my PCMCIA slots to access the internet wirelessly. | 23:22 |
| svemirko | linus yeah i have seen this thread | 23:23 |
| fermulator | nonya: other discussions (recent) show that the issue may be theme related https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/997900 -- again, likely due to some packages upgrading/changing to break support for some part of your Firefox theme | 23:23 |
| svemirko | but i lack fsck.jfs in my system | 23:23 |
| fermulator | nonya: does reverting to the default theme resolve the issue? | 23:23 |
| Goles | it -seems- that installing gnome-panel also installed session-flashback (not really sure), if it's the case, how can I set the classic gnome to be my default desktop environment ? (instead of this new Gnome with the 'activities' thing?) | 23:23 |
| nonya | looking into it | 23:23 |
| minimec | Goles: Are you using gnome3 as primary desktop? That would explain it. Gnome3 uses gnome-settings-daemon, while in 14.04 unity switched to unity-settings-daemon. | 23:23 |
| nonya | not | 23:24 |
| fermulator | nonya: note I'm running FF v28.0 , w/ Ubuntu 12.04 | 23:24 |
| fermulator | (no problems) | 23:24 |
| linus | once you have a new live session running you will probably need to run sudo apt-get install jfsutils | 23:24 |
| whoever | is there a good way to get a list of all hardes ? i have tried fdisk -l |awk '{print $0}' | grep /dev but that will list sda1, sda2 ... , but i just want sda | 23:24 |
| Goles | minimec: Yeah I think so, I think it was installed by default when I updated from 13.04 to 14.04 :( | 23:25 |
| fermulator | whoever: sudo lshw -c disk | 23:25 |
| whoever | and i do have other drives othher then sda , sdb, sdc | 23:25 |
| svemirko | ok, i am downloading the 12.04 | 23:25 |
| Goles | minimec: how could I switch back? | 23:25 |
| svemirko | the dl is 731mb, my mac says | 23:25 |
| svemirko | i hope i could be able to burn it on a cd cause im out of dvd right now | 23:25 |
| svemirko | fingers crossed | 23:25 |
| minimec | Goles: If you try to install unity-settings-daemon, does it conflict with gnome-settings-daemon? | 23:26 |
| svemirko | but i cannot use usb cause the old machine does not support usb boot | 23:26 |
| Goles | minimec: let me see what happens | 23:26 |
| fermulator | svemirko: brutal no USB :o | 23:26 |
| acx111 | however my pcmcia wireless card is not recognized by 14.04. lspci says tha | 23:26 |
| svemirko | yeah i know... | 23:26 |
| acx111 | however my pcmcia wireless card is not recognized by 14.04. lspci says: 06:00.0 Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 111 54Mbps Wireless Interface | 23:27 |
| Goles | minimec: I think you're correct https://gist.github.com/Goles/14786544dad42e1e5039 | 23:27 |
| svemirko | its an old machine that my friend passed to me to save some data from it | 23:27 |
| acx111 | how can i make it work under 14.04? | 23:27 |
| svemirko | it represented a challange so i took it :) | 23:27 |
| fermulator | svemirko: NOTE: another idea; is that you can move the hard drive from the old machine to a new machine, boot the NEW machine w/ live CD, and then access the drive that way | 23:27 |
| Goles | minimec: any clue about how te proceed ? | 23:27 |
| fermulator | svemirko: er, USB boot that is | 23:27 |
| svemirko | fermulator: thanks, i had that idea in my mind but i own only a laptop | 23:27 |
| svemirko | but i will try that if everything else fails | 23:28 |
| svemirko | i will go to someone to occupy the machine for a while :) | 23:28 |
| fermulator | nonya: the last reply from you was "not", not sure if my suggestions surrounding changing your theme back to default has resolved your issue? | 23:29 |
| nonya | looking into some other suggestions | 23:29 |
| === asturel- is now known as asturel_ | ||
| minimec | Goles: You seem to have some gnome3 ppa on that machine, because gnome-settings-daemon-schemas areon versoin 3.8.6.1 in trusty... http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all§ion=all&arch=any&keywords=gnome-settings-daemon-schemas&searchon=names | 23:31 |
| minimec | Goles: I cannot help you there. I try to avoid ppa's, and as you see I have some reasons to do so... ;) | 23:31 |
| Goles | minimec: Maybe it would be cool to remove them, I just want the old gnome working again so that I can vnc to the machine | 23:32 |
| acx111 | ubuntu is based on debian and found instructions for debian: https://wiki.debian.org/acx BUT where are the instructions for Ubuntu/Lubuntu 14.04??? | 23:32 |
| === francesco_ is now known as monkey-d-luffy | ||
| === D is now known as Guest2549 | ||
| Goles | minimec: you're right I found the following ppa gnome3-team-gnome3-next-trusty in sources.list.d, | 23:34 |
| minimec | Goles: ppa-purge might help there... | 23:34 |
| Goles | minimec: shoudl I run sudo apt-get remove gnome3 first? | 23:34 |
| OerHeks | !ppa-purge | 23:35 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 23:35 |
| NightmareLord | hiya | 23:36 |
| minimec | Goles: Do you have an alternate Window manager installed? IN that case you can. Otherwise you might only be able to do further installatioins on terminal. | 23:36 |
| Goles | minimec: don't really have a problem by using the terminal, at all. | 23:36 |
| Goles | So I could just do a sudo apt-get remove gnome3 , purge the ppa's, and start fresh (don't know how to install the classic gnome though ) | 23:37 |
| NightmareLord | is anyone proficient with usb stick installs? | 23:37 |
| minimec | Goles: So I would purge gnome3, then ppa-purge the repo, then 'sudo apt-egt install ubuntu-desktop' to get the default 14.04 package selection. | 23:37 |
| Goles | ok, will do that in 1 sec | 23:38 |
| Beldar | NightmareLord, Many, describe the issue to the channel | 23:38 |
| OerHeks | Goles backup your data first | 23:38 |
| Goles | minimec: I think the package is actually called gnome-session (since it didin't find gnome3) | 23:38 |
| Goles | OerHeks: don't have any data :) | 23:38 |
| NightmareLord | i want to install the boot cd on usb and then install the full on a parrition of that usb while keeping a big syorage partition | 23:39 |
| Goles | minimec: so it would be sudo apt-get purge gnome-session, | 23:39 |
| daftykins | !persistent | NightmareLord | 23:39 |
| ubottu | NightmareLord: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 23:39 |
| Beldar | NightmareLord, You need a install medium and the usb for the full, using one is not really an option per-say. | 23:40 |
| Goles | minimec: damn, tried to do a 'sudo apt-get purge gnome-session' and got a conflict again :( https://gist.github.com/Goles/431c71821bb733e44e6f | 23:41 |
| minimec | Goles: first remove 'gnome-session-fallback' | 23:42 |
| Beldar | NightmareLord, Do you have a ubuntu or linux install now, and are using grub to boot? | 23:42 |
| Goles | purging gnome-session :) | 23:44 |
| Goles | I don't seem to get the ppa-purge syntax though... how do I get the <repository-name> and <subdirectory> (where can I get that info?) | 23:45 |
| Goles | is it visible in /etc/apt/ ? | 23:45 |
| minimec | Goles: ppa's are in /etc/apt/sources.list.d probably. Otherwise you could check it in software&updates in the gnome settings I guess. | 23:47 |
| === teja is now known as Guest23704 | ||
| Goles | minimec: I see the gnome3 ppa there, it's called gnome3-team-gnome3-next-trusty.list | 23:50 |
| Goles | looks like this, 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnome3-team/gnome3-next/ubuntu trusty main' | 23:51 |
| Goles | so I should do ppa-purge ppa:X/Y ? :S | 23:51 |
| Beldar | Goles, read the bots info | 23:52 |
| minimec | Goles: 'sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3' | 23:52 |
| Goles | Yeah I read that the bot said, 'sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory>' | 23:52 |
| === teja__ is now known as swag | ||
| Goles | I was just a bit confused about what's repository-name and subdirectory Beldar | 23:53 |
| === swag is now known as teja__ | ||
| Goles | minimec: got 'Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: gnome3-team gnome3' ... took a while to Update the package lists though | 23:54 |
| Beldar | Goles, read the "read about installing" the purge is the same ppa info, only using the purge commands. https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3 | 23:55 |
| Beldar | Has to still be there though. | 23:55 |
| Goles | sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 | 23:55 |
| NightmareLord | Beldar, I can only use usb sticks for the install | 23:56 |
| Goles | Yeah, in the ppa's dir I see the gnome3-team-gnome3-next-trusty.list , .save etc | 23:56 |
| Goles | oh and staging | 23:56 |
| minimec | Goles: 'sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-next' then.... https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3-next | 23:56 |
