[00:00] minimec: the purge is now working :) now I get the syntax in ppa-purge [00:00] NightmareLord, what? [00:01] well I did install grub on an sd card once [00:01] NightmareLord, What, can you simplify that? You would just boot one into live, and use a manual install to the other, making sure grub goes to it's mbr. [00:02] Goles, It is a bit confusing, good job. ;) === logan is now known as Guest24083 [00:02] k, so no grub on harddrive, [00:03] Beldar: yeah, I'm purging the 'staging' ppa now, that actually prompted me about choosing a window manager, I selected gdmlight (instead of gdm) , I think that's ubuntu's default right? [00:03] NightmareLord, Not if you do it correctly, if that is your goal. You are not really being contextually clear. [00:04] Goles, Not sure om gdm. [00:04] on* [00:04] Goles: gdm is a login manager and is not default on ubuntu. Ubuntu uses lightdm. [00:04] I want all the install on the usb, I will have to pass by the bios to boot on the usb before getting to grub [00:05] minimec: yeah I chose to stay with lightdm, sorry it wasn't gdmlight [00:05] I just got 'confused' about the names, :) [00:05] I'll see what happens when the server finishes working === UbuntuWarrior is now known as windowsEmbedded [00:06] does gnome come installed by default in ubuntu? [00:06] ok, ppa was purged successfully :) [00:06] not with vanila ubuntu [00:07] Beldar? [00:07] minimec: can I now remove the files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gnome3-team-gnome3-next-trusty.* ? [00:07] anyone familiar with ubuntu mini? [00:07] Goles: They should be gone now, as you purged the ppa. [00:08] hey [00:08] minimec: :S they are not... haha, this is really weird (I got a ppa purged successfully message and all ) [00:08] my dad's computer messed up while updating to 14.04 [00:08] guest98765, Many, tell the channel the issue. [00:08] when he boots, it goes directly to the desktop, but there is no WM running [00:09] When I get to the choice for desktop choices, is lubuntu the lightest on memory or xfce? [00:10] NightmareLord, What does "pass by the bios to boot on the usb before getting to grub"mean? [00:10] indeed [00:10] guest98765, Use others nicks every post if conversing, you can tab complete nicks. [00:11] minimec: I think gnome was purged though, I see a 'login screen' (doesn't go directly to shell...), and when I try to log-in through that I get 'Failed to start a session', which could be a good thing? [00:11] benzrf, I smell an opportune moment to spin up a live cd [00:11] Squarepy: how do i figure out the issue though? [00:11] NightmareLord, Use others nicks every post if conversing, you can tab complete nicks. [00:11] Beldar: When I get to the choice for desktop choices, is lubuntu the lightest on memory or xfce? [00:11] guest98765, Soory not for you. [00:11] oops [00:12] guest98765, That is an opinion, I don't have one. ;) [00:12] Goles: Well now i would switch to a console and install 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' or 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop' [00:12] trying to compress my bitcoin folders into a file and save it but the gui doesn't see . folders?? [00:12] minimec: what's the difference between the dpkg option and just using apt-get? [00:13] how do i do this by command line or fix the gui? [00:13] ( just curious ) [00:13] wickedheadache: ctrl+h [00:13] how do i set up my cpu fan [00:13] Beldar: those 2 choices would be the smallest... correct? [00:13] wickedheadache: it hides . files by default, you can make it show them [00:13] !ping [00:13] pong! [00:13] Chrome works right [00:13] hello everyone, i have succesfuly booted v12.04 on my old machine, but i still cannot mount my jfs partition. anyone a clue? thanks! [00:13] benzrf, try starting x-server from the cmdline (to see possible errors), persponally I would suggest reinstalling preferably with a separate home partition [00:13] Beldar: ok, the grub will be on the usb stick? I wont have any stuff on the harddrive, also will the usb persistent install be able to boot on other computers? [00:13] omg ty [00:13] Goles: dpkg-reconfigure pretends, that the package is already installed. [00:13] wickedheadache: you're welcome [00:13] why did selecting show hidden stuff in the drop out menu work like ctrl h? [00:14] not work [00:15] when i try fsck.jfs i get this: [00:15] hi [00:15] minimec: just double checking here, but this is an ubuntu server install I guess, and I just want to be able to vnc into the machine while using an 'older' Gnome WM... should I proceed and install ubuntu-desktop? [00:15] sorry, I don't want to screw up :) [00:15] Unrecoverable error reading M from /dev/sda3. CANNOT CONTINUE. [00:15] NightmareLord, disconnect the hard drive on the computer that you use to do the install to the USB [00:16] NightmareLord, You asked for a full install as a end goal. A persistent is on an ISO loaded usb. [00:16] a full install on usb [00:16] Goles: You don't have to.. Maybe installing the 'gnome-session-fallback' package will be enough for you now... [00:16] that sounds right [00:17] will give that a try [00:17] NightmareLord, Okay, than what is your definition of a full install, we are going in circles here. [00:18] Beldar: a full usb install that can boot on multiple [00:18] NightmareLord, Yes I understand it is a full install on the usb, you do not want this on the HD. [00:18] Beldar: computers [00:19] NightmareLord, In general a full install or a iso loaded usb, persistent or not will boot on other computers. [00:20] minimec: I installed gnome-session-fallback and then tried to 'startx' , got a black screen... maybe it's related to my ~/.xsession file containing 'gnome-session --session=classic-gnome' ? [00:20] Goles, startx is incorrect [00:20] Beldar: I like that [00:20] haha, [00:20] Goles, I love the ignore. [00:20] lol no free cloud storage with 50gb free [00:21] haha [00:21] Beldar: not trying to ignore :) haha [00:21] Goles: Try to start it with 'sudo service lightdm start', to get the normal login manager. === default_ is now known as newdefault [00:21] thanks, will give it a shot [00:21] Do anyone know how install the sismedia driver on 14.01 ? [00:21] lets see how big the 21gig folder gets compressed to [00:21] Beldar: ok, I just wanted to be sure, thabk you [00:22] minimec: I got 'job is already running: lightdm' [00:22] hmm [00:22] NightmareLord, What might help you is knowing the iso load with the persistent has limitations on updates and filling the persistent up. The full install is cleanable and fully usable. [00:27] Goles: I am keeping up / some what // for the current desk top identification, what returns with terminal command -> echo $DESKTOP_SESSION <-. [00:28] Bashing-om: hey there, I was able to get the gnome-session-flashback running... however when I connect through my vnc I get a black screen (as if the lightdm hasn't automatically started) [00:29] Locally I can log-in with the Gnome Flashback (Compiz) or (Metacity) [00:30] I may try with xfce4 [00:32] Goles: could use teamvieer instead [00:33] Goles: teamviewer [00:33] I would preffer to stick with freenx [00:35] Goles: "I had this same problem and solved by making ~/.vnc/xstartup executable" --some guy on a forum [00:36] dw1: will check that out === joshtau_ is now known as joshtau [00:38] Goles: I guess you tried http://google.com/search?q=vnc+black+screen+gnome+ubuntu :) [00:40] Anyone know how to set up a static ip within a vm in ubuntu server? [00:42] I tried setting up a static Ip in ubuntu server like you would normally, I changed the /etc/network/interfaces/ portion to reflect a static IP Address [00:48] What channel should I connect to to talk about ubuntu server? [00:48] here or #ubuntu-server === chalcedny` is now known as chalcedony` [00:50] rww, Thank you sir would you by chance know anything about setting a static ip address up on a virtual instance of ubuntu server 14.04 [00:53] Kawaiola: man interfaces ? [00:53] mgolisch, I changed the interface /etc/network/interface [00:54] Kawaiola: and it doesnt work? [00:54] mgolisch, No it keeps falling back to dhcp [00:55] Could it be conflicting with my domain controller It is a vm on one of my servers that also happens to be my dc [00:55] how you mean that? [00:55] mgolisch, Also should my virtual nic be briged or nat I made it bridged [00:56] youd use bridged if you want to be accessible from your network [00:56] mgolisch, I mean I built the virtual instance of ubuntu server on my dc server. [00:57] mgolisch, Yeah okay that is how I have it set up but no matter how I set it up it won't be static [00:57] you probably do it wrong then [00:58] what does your interfaces file look like? [00:58] mgolisch, Uhhh hold on [00:58] paste to paste.ubuntu.com [00:58] # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system [00:58] # and how to activate them.

[01:02] Anyone know the command to restart the network interface? [01:02] so my question is why wouldn't these ubuntu folders be visibile within mint, and how might i be able to save them? ubuntu boot discs/usbs keep freezing so this is the best i could do to boot [01:03] wrb123: 'ls -a' in a terminal [01:03] Kawaiola: ifdown name && ifup name ? [01:04] Kawaiola: 'sudo service networking restart' [01:04] minimec for some reason they still aren't showing up... they could be found if navigating to / in ubuntu, which i assume is just the same main area where you also have /usr /home /etc ... they were called /.files, etc. [01:06] Kawaiola: and no i didnt see all you got muted, like i said paste your config to paste.ubuntu.com [01:07] wrb123: Check /home/.

[01:16] chmod -R, nevermind! [01:16] thanks everyone :) [01:21] mgolisch, Okay hold on posting it now [01:24] mgolisch, Did you see it? [01:24] Kawaiola: you didnt post the url [01:24] or am i blind?

[03:45] (yes I tried #gnunet) [03:46] i almost tried .. wait. how do you try gnunet [03:46] Tilo15: http://bit.ly/1mtD7Da [03:47] owh: I tried that [03:47] owh: wait. that's for my earlier question [03:48] owh: never mind [03:48] * owh nods [03:48] wow. thats a lot of singles adds tilo15 [03:48] since when does google have half naked girls on the front page? [03:48] I downloaded a new legacy driver for my wireless card and put it in /lib/firmware. How do I tell the OS that I want to load that one now? [03:49] hello [03:49] eny: I downloaded gnunet-gtk as well as the server and client metapackage and I don't know where to go from there [03:49] Liquidedge: I'm not familiar with that method of installing drivers. Where are the instructions that you followed to do that? [03:49] how do i join a irc as a registered user with a password? [03:49] ie #python [03:49] sophocles: /join #python [03:49] i think [03:50] yeah but it says i'm unregistered user [03:50] owh, I downloaded it because it is an older chipset, so it's not part of the repository. [03:50] i had already registerd and did the email verification and all [03:50] sophocles: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml [03:50] owh, Now I need to tell ubuntu to use this one. [03:50] Tilo15, sorry, i havent done that in years [03:50] owh, But it's not showing up in "Additional Drivers." [03:50] eny: Thats okay, just thought I'd ask [03:51] sophocles: /msg NickServ ident [03:52] sophocles: But i'm not 100% sure that's right [03:52] yes yes i just came upon that same line [03:52] in the faq [03:52] where you guys from if you don't mind [03:52] i'm in lost angeles [03:52] lol [03:52] Southland, New Zealand [03:53] oh nice, i have a friend from auckland [03:53] Liquidedge: The firmware is not the same as the driver if I understand correctly. You also need to install a driver that uses the firmware. AFAIK it's driver dependent. [03:53] he's here looking for jobs in hollywwod [03:53] i remember a day when it wasn't polite to ask people where they are from :) [03:53] boys,is there some better tools to download ed2k resourse? [03:53] sophocles: plz keep it ubuntu support related mate [03:54] :) [03:54] Krishnamurti: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/natty/amule/ [03:54] What would this command do [03:54] ls -l|sed -n '/^.....w/p' [03:55] what firmware are you trying to fix? owh ? [03:55] eny: Not me, Liquidedge [03:55] im so confused [03:55] /server irc.abjects.net [03:55] Trying to fix my Intel Wireless card firmware/driver. [03:56] Bray90820: ls -l, returns the long listing of a directory. sed changes some stuff and outputs the result. [03:56] Goes really, really slow. Figured the first step was to update to the latest. [03:56] what stuff does it change tho [03:56] owh: [03:57] /msg NickServ identify sophocles ifapougwsllw [03:57] owh,em,i have tried amule and mldonkey,but not so wonderful [03:57] Bray90820: Just the output to the terminal of the ls command. Nothing on your file system. In what context are you coming across this? [03:57] sophocles: change to a new password, everybody saw it :p [03:57] now i want to go to new zealand. see what you did sophocles? [03:57] :T [03:57] owh: this is actually homework [03:57] Liquidedge, What ubuntu release? [03:57] Bray90820: Then I've told you much more than I should ;-) [03:58] Beldar: 14.04 [03:59] Liquidedge: did you upgrade or clean install 14.04? === mcl0vin_ is now known as mcl0vin [03:59] Upgrade [03:59] Liquidedge, In 13.10 the down loadable intel app worked for updating, have you looked for one on 14.04? [03:59] Liquidedge: maybe a clean install with network cable on might solve the wifi === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [03:59] Beldar: Nope. I didn't even know that was a thing. [04:00] Would prefer not to clean install as things are set up pretty nicely. [04:00] Liquidedge: i understand [04:00] Beldar: Can you point me to the 13.10 version? [04:00] I had a heck of a time getting my A2600 to work, not using network cable [04:00] Liquidedge, just curious, why do you think its the firmware of your intel chip on the nic and not your drivers for wireless connection? [04:01] Liquidedge: maybe the intel drivers website can get you updated? [04:01] Liquidedge, https://01.org/linuxgraphics/ [04:01] eny: Covering all bases. I'm not sure what it is. [04:01] Dvorovoi: so you fixxed it at the end? [04:02] yeah the A6200 [04:02] netgear [04:02] Liquidedge: You could boot a Ubuntu LiveCD and test the setup on that. It would tell you if it works out of the box, or if there is an issue with your specific setup. [04:02] Dvorovoi: how if i may ask? [04:02] owh: Pretty good idea. [04:02] owh: good idea [04:03] yes. mines slow but its because my isp throttles me and other stuff. slow wifi could mean a whole lot of htings [04:03] found an older set of drivers. mine came with bcmhlhigh6, upgraded to bcmwlhigh63, the older version i foudn on the net was bcmwlhigh5 in a zip fole labled A6200 for Linux [04:03] Dvorovoi: sounds like a real quest :p [04:03] about 10 hrs of fiddling with ndiswrapper [04:03] It's the only computer on my network that's slow, I know it's no my isp. [04:03] my first linux experience [04:04] Dvorovoi: lol those are the best, self finds :p [04:04] ok worktime, cheers guys [04:04] now im questing to gifure out how to make my desktop icon font and launcher font larger. its too small after switching from native driver to my nvidia drivers [04:05] i tried fiddling with ndiswrapper once. i lost. [04:05] it took some time [04:05] i didnt really get the hint until i learned about dmesg [04:06] what does this do? [04:06] that's fun [04:06] вхат ис цыриллиц ? [04:06] it shows some info from the kernal ring buffer [04:06] w/e that is [04:06] i found the right click button [04:06] i just know it showed me errors from ndiswrapper failing [04:07] how do i filter everyone that is leaving and joinging and leaving and joining? i cant find the conversation. [04:07] eny we need to know which irc clinet you are using [04:12] xchat-gnome [04:12] CTCP VERSION reply from eny [~eny@24-119-100-82.cpe.cableone.net]: xchat 0.3.0 Linux 3.2.0-60-generic [i686] [04:12] is what i got lol [04:12] sorry but this is too funny >>> Your_Dog has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [04:16] http://wiki.xkcd.com/irc/hide_join_part_messages [04:16] check that eny [04:17] although if you are helping people out and staying that can be confusing as you end up talking to people that have left [04:18] * owh shows the leaving messages, not the rest. [04:21] i did not know xkcd had a wiki help page. i learn something new every day [04:22] i usually just went for the comics [04:22] Dvorovoi, thanks [04:22] no problem === jason576 is now known as ys0serious [04:24] i sometimes laugh till i cry at xkcd comics, and then someone will come by and I show them and they always say "i dont get it" makes me feel strange. [04:25] sorry but sometimes i think i come to chat rooms just to see this .. <-- SweetMuffin has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [04:25] okay i'll be serious. anyone have a hard time checksum their ubuntu? [04:26] i checked mine from windows prior to install [04:26] is there a way to eneable the middle mouse button [04:26] !md5 | eny [04:26] eny: 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 [04:26] i dont think i even know how to do that in windows. or do you mean cmd/ [04:27] i used a program from the web [04:27] eny: the link i gave gives examples in windows [04:27] i do try to verify them. i guess i should have been more clear. the md4 checksum fails. [04:27] md5* [04:27] lol i think i found it by following the HowToMD%SUM links [04:28] eny: That means that the file on your computer isn't the same as the one on the website. [04:28] the muffins dead [04:28] right. why is that happening all of the sudden? [04:28] eny: the link i gave should share ideas about what to do if the sum fails [04:28] omg. muffins are never dead. [04:28] okay thanks. i will go read holstein . [04:29] eny: your internet.. or, your drive... please use the #ubuntu-offtopic channel for chat.. thanks [04:29] md5 is off topic ubuntu? [04:29] oh. the other chat. [04:29] ok [04:30] eny, there are windows apps to check md5sums you have to search for one [04:30] Artemis3: http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [04:31] ok. i dont have windows. well, i have a broken windows. [04:31] http://www.winmd5.com/ [04:31] is what i use [04:31] so i need to install windows to check my ubuntu checksum? [04:31] is there a way to enable the middle mouse button [04:32] eny: no [04:32] eny: What are you currently using to talk to us? [04:32] eny: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM [04:32] ubuntu [04:32] md5sum ubuntu-11.10-dvd-i386.iso is the example from http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM [04:33] it works for me when i supply a valid file [04:34] i'm having an issue with make [04:34] i've set up PATH to a directory make needs to find a bin file [04:34] i can type the name in bash [04:34] and it runs the program [04:34] however when running make [04:34] it can't find it [04:35] anyone have idea's? [04:35] in order to install irc server on my ubuntu-server, I just need to install ircd-irc2, configure it, and add a irc.domainame.com DNS record for my server? [04:35] anxiety: so when you actually 'make' it cannot find the directory? [04:37] Dvorovoi: i'm building newlib. I run make. It tells me it can't find arm-none-eabi-ranlib [04:37] Dvorovoi: but if type arm-none-eabi-ranlib in bash, i get ranlib giving me output [04:39] holstein, thanks for the second link. it has more in depth info. i'll try that again. [04:39] hi there [04:40] i installed the nvidia drivers, and now the terminal that comes up with ctrl+alt+f1 is in low resolution, how to fix this ? [04:40] since i wrote a very strange partition table to my harddisk, my live system from USB kernel panics at startup, shortly after printing an insanely long list of "sda"+numbers, looking like it tried to list partitions. i remember cfdisk warning me that there were too many partitions, too. is there a way to make the USB live system ignore the partition table in sda and still let me write to the device as a whole? [04:42] i tried the "check disk for errors" option in the live system startup menu, but it also panics [04:44] Sven_vB: You could probably boot into DOS and use fdisk to "fix" it. [04:45] owh, so i should make a DOS (freedos?) live USB? [04:46] my pc is unable to make sound ive tried evrything i can [04:46] Sven_vB: If you cannot boot, that would likely work. You might also be able to start a linux stick in rescue mode. [04:47] owh oh right, i'll try that first [04:47] ive tried installin uninstalling ulsa but on typing alsamixer it says no directory found [04:48] silv3r_m00n: I'm not so sure you should.. I vaguely seem to recall something about nvidia not supporting higher resolutions in tty.. but that was some time back and my memory might be faulty [04:48] nd, If you start from a LiveCD, does it work? [04:48] even i installed alsamixer from software centre in gui [04:49] butit wont start [04:49] yaaa === ashok is now known as Guest71549 [04:49] hai [04:49] can anyone help please [04:50] nd: open a terminal and run alsamixer What happens? [04:50] it says no directory found [04:51] nd, If you start from a LiveCD, does it work? [04:51] nd: is that the full error message? [04:51] yeah it works from live pendrive [04:52] its working in live puppy slacko [04:52] nd: it's not something like cannot open mixer, no such file or directory? [04:52] nd, try typing its full path: /usr/bin/alsamixer [04:52] yeah it says no file or directory [04:54] cannot open mixer [04:55] nd: can you pastebin the results of cat /proc/asound/cards [04:55] !pastebin | nd [04:55] nd: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [04:56] sometimes ubuntu lock up. How do I find out why? [04:56] it once again say no such files or directory [04:57] Deihmos: sometimes you get information in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/kern.log but other times theres almost no trace of what caused it to crash/hang [04:57] I see [04:58] nd: ok, pastebin this then ls /proc [04:58] ok im new here can take sevral minutes [04:59] Deihmos: usually you try to force the system to hang.. to see what might affect it.. can be things like overheating, bad memory, bad graphics drivers etc [05:00] nd: try running this command sudo apt-get install pastebinit enter your password and let it finish.. then write ls /proc | pastebinit give us the url it prints out [05:00] nd: saves you the copying/pasting by hand [05:02] ok thanx installing paste bin [05:03] is there a way to get an automated eclipse unstall on Ubuntu 14.04 that will not install OpenJDK? [05:03] install not unstall [05:05] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7396811/ [05:05] nd: what version of ubuntu are you running? [05:06] its saucy salamnder [05:06] 13.10 i guesss [05:06] when i uninstall firefox things lock up [05:06] can't i uninstall firefox? [05:06] nd: it seems you either don't have alsa installed or it's not running.. [05:07] Deihmos: sure you're supposed to be able to uninstall firefox [05:07] thunderbird locks up [05:07] no i have alsa it says alsa is already latest version [05:07] but its not running i guess [05:08] Ubuntu Vs. Red Hat for maximum customization flexibility: Anyone biased towards one more than the other? [05:09] wait i typed sudo apt-get install alsamixer it says unable to locate package [05:10] macgyverfever: That's like emacs vs vi. Horses for courses. [05:13] nd: there might be more problems behind this.. not sure why you can't install alsamixer.. but I have to go to work now, try asking about it again in the channel [05:13] ok thanx :) [05:14] saucy is full of bugs any one who too thinks it is ? [05:14] nd, the package is called alsa-utils [05:15] ok [05:15] nd. so the command should be apt-get install alsa-utils [05:15] yeah its installing it [05:16] nd, i had that problem once. it turned out that when i updated my drivers it erased my alsamixer. [05:16] it says alsa utilis is already the newest version [05:16] at the command line the program was not found but it was listed in the software centre. did you check the centre for alsamixer? [05:16] u mean purge alsa and then again reinstall it [05:17] it was working before but i install mpg123 player command line player from softwre centre [05:17] and since then its not makin sound [05:18] and also,, no one is offtopic chattin gin ubuntu=offtopic. why do i always get banished to the quiet room? [05:18] owh [05:19] eny: That would be because you're in the wrong room. #ubuntu-offtopic, not #ubuntu=offtopic. [05:20] nd, did you have a question? [05:20] owh should i purge alsa and rinstall it again? [05:21] eny [05:21] nd, I seem to recall a compatibility issue. Something about OSS and ALSA not playing nicely if you install a legacy application. I suspect, but don't know, that mpg123 is based around OSS, not ALSA. I may be wrong. I am not sure, it's been a long while. [05:22] is there a way to force the launcher to reload without logging off? [05:23] i changed something with Unity Tweak and all my launcher icon disapeared [05:23] owh so wt should i do [05:23] what did you change, Dvorovoi ? [05:24] not sure. i changed quite a few things. disabled webapp content and how workspace switching works and that switching between apps happens across all workspaces. [05:24] now unity tweaks tool wont launch lol [05:24] strit [05:24] Dvorovoi, You can reset unity, look for one on your release. [05:25] ok [05:25] Dvorovoi, sure it's not on another workspace? :) [05:25] thanks [05:25] it might be hidden behind my eclipse which is busy doing some work [05:25] Dvorovoi, You can do the commands form a tty if needed. [05:25] from* [05:25] nd? [05:26] strit can you help me ? about no sound issue [05:26] Beldar: yeah i tried that tty thing someone mentioned earlier and got stuck in a fullscreen terminal. had to reboot lol [05:26] nd, what sounddriver du you use? [05:27] ive hp 431 notebook [05:27] nd, ALSA, PULSEAUDIO or JACK? [05:27] strit ive hp 431 notebook [05:27] its alsa [05:28] strit how can i know about my sounddriver [05:28] nd did you try restaring ALSA? [05:28] Strit: I just typed unity and its all fixed with changes applied [05:28] strit you mean force reloading [05:28] nd yes. [05:28] strit yeah ive tried that [05:28] Dvorovoi, Great. :) [05:29] strit it says none loaded none reloaded [05:30] what if you start ALSA or PULSEAUDIO then?

[07:13] ferz: If your guide tells you to run that command, assume the people making it are idiots, and find a different one. [07:13] ferz this ^^^ [07:14] bazhang: the ultimate goal is not to learn a workaround and be able to follow instructions ( https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt )to add that repository [07:15] Flannel: I dont' think that postgresql guys are idiot [07:15] ferz: that's not a command only repo line...

What does it provide that the postgres in the official repositories doesn't? [07:17] qin_: thank you, I've not understood that it has to be inserted in the file [07:18] ferz: Why are you trying to add that repository? What does it provide that the postgres in the official repositories doesn't? [07:18] Flannel: the latest postgresql 9.3.3 [07:18] ferz: SO we determined that PostgerSQL people are nor idiots, now Flannel question, what is so wrong with installing it from Ubuntu repos?

[07:19] ok [07:20] sorry, I was looking for 9.3.4 some days ago and it was not available from official ubuntu repository while it was on apt.postgresql.org [07:21] ferz: According to the changelog, 9.3.4 has been available since March 18th. It could be wrong, or your mirror may have been grossly out of date or something, but postgres will definitiely get timely updates [07:21] (available in the Ubuntu repositories) [07:22] Flannel: thank you [07:25] Can anyone help me with desktop customization?

[07:52] is it just checking whether the partition start byte offset is divisible by 4096? [07:52] Artemis3, thx. there's another mssql problem.. [07:54] How comes i cannot edit vpn in network connections? [07:54] Sven_vB, its good, you don't really need to worry :) not only they use 4k its usually like 1024k boundries [07:54] Sven_vB: I'm not sure what you're asking. [07:55] is there anyone use lmule? [07:55] ???????????? [07:56] Codmadnesspro:I don't know how to use vpn either [07:57] Its so frickin hard [07:57] Artemis3, well, can't see how it is "good"; to fix pre-seeded auto-install, i have to predict partition tables that won't make ubiquity ask me to re-align them [07:57] Im banned from a site i wanna get into lol [07:57] Codmadnesspro, it might be edit-locked due to being currently connected [07:58] Its got nothing in it [07:58] no one use lmule? [07:59] at first it seemed so easy, ubiquity didn't want the / partition within the first 3072 bytes, so i put another partition in front, but now it claims that / is 512 bytes in front of the minimum even though /tmp is in front with entire 512 MB assigned to it [08:00] Sven_vB, that doesnt make much sense, did you install something and then want ubiquity? ubiquity will make the partitions using at best parted, and parted uses 1m boundries. [08:01] Artemis3, my auto-install script makes ubiquity re-use the existing partition table (prepared manually with gparted, restored in auto-mode with with sfdisk) [08:02] ubiquity is launched after sfdisk has managed the PT [08:02] so i'd like to check right after sfdisk, before ubiquity, whether ubiquity will like it [08:03] and if not, call an admin before ubiquity even starts (because some other bug prevents it from exiting when asked to) [08:03] Sven_vB, not sure about sfdisk, at least cfdisk and gdisk align at least at 2k [08:05] aligning at 512bytes reminds me of old fdisk, do start your partition at 4k if its your recipe [08:05] How comes i cannot edit vpn in network connections? Its not connected to anything. [08:05] sfdisk just writes whatever i tell it to, and i use it to restore the PT that i made with gparted. i tried cfdisk as well, no luck in aligning.

[08:06] Sven_vB, also you might as well pre-seed using debian installer, you know the thing that is launched by ubuntu-minimal using the very same preseed file using the standard recipes there [08:07] <[gnubie]> given the above information, i'm wondering why my system is already swapping when i still have around 50% of physical memory that is still free..

[08:07] last time i checked, preseed options for partitioning had to replace the entire partition table, that's no good in my use cases. [08:08] no the recipes allow keeping previous partitions [08:08] could somebody point me towards some free security tools for ubuntu? [08:09] wow, they really grew better then. [08:09] i'll just give that 4k divisible approach a try, and if it works, just assume it's what ubiquity wanted me to do [08:09] Sven_vB, the recipe thing is documented somewhere but can't recall atm you gotta search a bit [08:10] What is a terminal command to eliminate the first line in a text document? [08:11] Artemis3, maybe some time. for now i try and get the existing installer script to work. it has some other neat features as well (like avahi detection) for which i'd probably keep it anyway ;) [08:11] Sven_vB, well you might as well do that, just the first partition start at 4k and you are done (the sizes will match 4k (or more) boundries using proper partiioning tools such as cfdisk) but check the docs just in case [08:13] Hi folks. I'm wondering why on the upgrade page there is no information to upgrade from one LTS to another. Do I need to go through each upgrade individually? [08:13] I currently use 12.4LTS [08:14] im on 13.04 and i need to know how to disable ubuntu one, i think uninstalled it but the cloud icon keeps showing up on the bar [08:15] Sven_vB, even if you miss, and fdisk uses 512bytes or 1k or 2k, only at the border youll get some ineficiency, ie read 512bytes but drive has to scan 4k because thats the min its not terrible as there are only few borders between partitions 2k, 1k, halfk will land nice inside 4k sectors [08:16] Artemis3, i'm not even worried about efficiency, mostly just about ubiquity asking about it. which makes me think, maybe i can preseed the answer as ignore. === davidcalle_ is now known as davidcalle [08:16] Sven_vB, but the ideal is to tell your partition tool to use 4k as min, tho parted uses 1024k so you are pretty much covered [08:17] Sven_vB, yes but don't start your first partition at some odd place like windows xp at byte 63 or such [08:18] Hello, can someone tell me what the channel for idle talk is? :) [08:18] #join centos [08:19] lol sjd_zeus [08:19] <[gnubie]> anyone?

[10:10] imdea: man 5 tzfile probably [10:11] Ben64: pastebin.com/kyxPYR8h [10:12] owh: basically I have a server in Chile and for some reason chile's government seems to choose arbitrary dates for DST, and I'm not sure whether official Chile's NTP server is propagating the right time. So I was wondering whether it was possible to create a custom tz with "custom rules" in the sense that once DST changes are announced I'm sure the time will change effectively and not be doubting whether the NTP server is giving the right time [10:12] sgronblo: what version of ubuntu? [10:13] imdea: how about using a different time server? [10:13] uh let me see if I remember which file to check for that [10:13] sgronblo: cat /etc/issue [10:13] 12.0.4.4 LTS \n \l [10:13] does sudo apt-get upgrade works both for ubuntu and debian ? [10:14] innocent95: yes [10:14] imdea: I get it. Western Australia did a similar thing. The best way is to lodge a bug report when the times are known. The NTP server will continue to give out UTC. [10:14] Okay [10:14] innocent95: depends how sudo is confiured on your debian. but debian works with apt-get , too [10:14] llutz, and both do an upgrade for the system, right ? [10:14] innocent95: read "man apt-get" [10:14] k1l_, Yes [10:15] innocent95: not of all packages, see the manpage. and see apt-get update first [10:15] owh: sorry for my ignorante, but to ledge a bug report to whom? to the owners of the official NTP server or to whom? could you please give me more info about this? [10:15] ignorance* [10:16] !apt | innocent95 [10:16] innocent95: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) [10:16] k1l_, Ok, i'll read it because i still can't differ between update and upgrade [10:16] So 4GB is not enough to unpack these kernel files? [10:16] :D [10:16] imdea: No, the bug report goes to Ubuntu. The NTP server gives out UTC time. Your local server translates that into local time. [10:17] Is there something weird with my apt-get or should I be trying to figure out a way to increase the size of the partition I'm using for Ubuntu? [10:17] innocent95: apt-get update just gets a list with new packages. but doesnt change anything. but that list is needed for the upgrade [10:17] imdea: Here's an example of such a report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/+bug/1031836 [10:17] Launchpad bug 1031836 in tzdata (Ubuntu Hardy) "Wrong timezone data for Port-au-Prince, Haiti: DST offset is ignored" [Undecided,Fix released] [10:18] k1l_, hmm, But i see it takes a long time working some times, what it does ? [10:19] innocent95: it asks the repos you activated in your system if there are new packages available [10:20] k1l_, and if there is they'll be installed in the next upgrade command, right ? [10:20] with apt-get upgrade. but that doesnt install all packages. see the docs there is explained what and why [10:20] okay :) [10:21] owh: but how does solves my problem? [10:21] there's a way to make the side buttons of my Mouse Logitech G600 work in ubuntu? === spinx is now known as spinx^ === Guest93442 is now known as hdtune2k [10:29] err [10:33] does anybody having problem setting grub2 timeout to 0? [10:33] juju, it's very easy, just edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg [10:34] but should not it be done by editing /etc/default/grub? [10:34] juju_, you can do that too [10:34] I wanted to know the offtopic channel.. [10:35] juju_, don't forget to do sudo update-grub [10:35] I'm on a fresh install of 14.04 and my resume-from-suspend I think always doesn't work. I get back a screen, but it usually chokes on some video-related thing.. sometimes it's just opening a drop down in chrome. Or opening Totem to play something. I google around but didn't notice anything particularly helpful. I have an nvidia card, but I'm using standard nouveau.. ideas? [10:35] and that should be it [10:36] can i ignore unmet depdendencies when doing apt-get install? === Jackson is now known as Guest31021 [10:36] . [10:37] ix_ i have done the same, but when setting to 0 it still countdown to 10 but when i set it 1 it takes 1 second correctly, is it bug introduced in 14.04? [10:37] sgronblo: That'll get messy quicker than you can say "oops!" [10:38] well, i wanted to try to increase the size of my partition so i can retry running apt-get -f install, but i dont have gparted and cant install it because of unmet dependencies [10:39] juju_, I haven't tried it myself, but it should work, it works on other distros [10:39] sgronblo use a live cd to use gparted [10:39] sgronblo: boot from livecd? [10:39] wouldnt it be so much easier to just install it? [10:40] sgronblo, why would it have unmet dependencies? [10:40] ix_: i got no clue [10:40] sgronblo: You dont have to reinstall, just boot and use the tools [10:41] well first i need something to boot [10:41] and i dont really have any unused usb drives lying around [10:41] ix_, I checked /boot/grub/grub.cfg, it also updates the value to 0, but its still not working, also can't find any related bug filling === TyzzyT is now known as TyzzyT2 [10:42] juju_, I don't know, sorry, maybe it's a "feature" === TyzzyT2 is now known as TyzzyT [10:43] hi, what is x-terminal-emulator on ubuntu? Is it a script or binary? [10:43] sgronblo, if you want to increase the size of your / partition, that's a bad ideea without reinstalling [10:43] idea [10:43] ah, it is running a script [10:44] ix_, well i am filling a bug report [10:44] ix_: without reinstalling what? [10:44] hello, how do I create a partition with parted to use all drive? [10:44] when i run wine in 14.04, it brings up the app behind other windows. so i have to like.. minimize it, or select it to brintgit forward. anyone know anything about this? === dv__ is now known as dv_ [10:44] sgronblo, if you want to increase the size of the / partition, I suggest reinstalling Ubuntu [10:45] ix_: ah its that bad? [10:45] anything about 14.04 resume from suspend? [10:45] sgronblo: can you do this? sudo dd bs=1M count=100 if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/test [10:45] sgronblo, but I don't understand, why would you need a bigger / partition? [10:45] sgronblo: He means resizing the OS partition is unsafe. Sometimes it will break in a weird way. In my personal experience it's worked when I've done it, but perhaps I am was lucky [10:45] did you install too much software? [10:45] because apt-get -f install fails because "No space left on device" [10:46] Well what is too much software [10:46] I have 4.2GB available [10:46] dont see how that is not enough [10:46] sgronblo, it should be enough [10:46] sgronblo: try the command i suggested. if that says no space left on device you have a problem [10:46] check disk? fsck? [10:48] Ben64: the dd invocation worked fine [10:49] sgronblo, so, basically, your problem is that apt-get -f install gives an error [10:49] ix_: this is correct [10:50] ok i was able to sneak in gparted by installing it using synaptic [10:50] Hello [10:50] i got the same error the linux-generic and headers packages but at least it installed gparted before crapping out [10:50] is there a way to keep the menubar always visible, and not just when the mouse is over it? [10:50] sgronblo, ok, so synaptic works fine, but apt doesn't [10:50] sgronblo: then why do you need to do -f [10:51] no synaptic also gets the same "No space left on device" [10:51] delt, can't confirm but try unity tweak, may be it has this in option [10:52] juju: thanks [10:52] Wait, do I have to unmount a partition to resize it in gparted or something or why is the option greyed out? [10:52] sgronblo, you obviously have to unmount a partition to resize [10:52] :) [10:53] yeah it would probably be quite difficult without doing that, but i wont be able to run ubuntu without mounting / right? [10:53] sgronblo, if you have enough space on it, you don't need to resize it [10:53] sgronblo: can you pastebin all of "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [10:53] well apparently "No space left on device" [10:53] you can run df -h in the terminal [10:53] ix_: already been done. http://pastebin.com/kyxPYR8h [10:54] thanks Ben64 [10:54] shouldnt i be doing upgrade instead of dist-upgrade? [10:55] sgronblo, ok, you should have enough empty space, unless you're trying to install anything bigger than 4 GB, which I doubt [10:55] dist-upgrade does a bit more [10:55] yeah but why would i try more if i already fail when trying to do less? [10:55] sgronblo: dist-upgrade is not a ubuntu version upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 [10:55] !apt | sgronblo [10:55] sgronblo: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) [10:56] !dist-upgrade [10:56] A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [10:56] sgronblo, ^ [10:57] wow, so dist-upgrade does not mean distro upgrade? [10:57] yeah, that factoid is better [10:57] sgronblo: it means, but that doesn't mean VERSIO upgrade [10:57] sgronblo: nope. ubuntu uses update-manager or do-release-upgrade fo that [10:57] +N [10:58] Artemis3, thanks, partitioning works now. i use gparted to arrange a draft, add 1 sector to partitions after which gparted had left a hole, and apply it with sfdisk as always. i just wonder, is there a reason why gparted would leave one sector unused at the end of only some partitions? it looks like a rounding error in determining the number of sectors to use. [10:58] llutz: what would be different between a version upgrade and a distro upgrade? [10:59] sgronblo: package Version upgrade. [10:59] if distro upgrade didnt mean upgrade the version of the distro what would it mean? upgrade from debian to ubuntu? [10:59] sgronblo: distro is what you already have, new version is different [10:59] (most partitions are n*8 sectors, but some are 8*n+7) [10:59] What is the console available at ctrl-alt-f1 called? [11:00] sgronblo: dont mix debian into that, they use that differently [11:00] I'm just trying to make sense of how these apt-get subcommands are named [11:00] sgronblo: apt-get does in no way make a 13.10 to 14.04 upgrade on ubuntu. [11:00] !tty | Cheekio [11:00] Cheekio: To get to the TTY terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login). To change the resolution for your TTY, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution [11:00] ooh [11:00] thanks! [11:00] k1l_: no they don't. they just use different version schemes and longer cycles [11:00] sgronblo: they are named back in the days when apt-get was used to make all upgrade. now its only used for the packages. [11:01] sgronblo, dist-upgrade cannot install a new version of Ubuntu unless you modify the repositories [11:01] Sven_vB: the extra sector allows for tnermal expansion of the disk platter when it gets hot [11:01] LambC: don't make stuff up [11:01] LambC, haha! :D [11:01] mm, yeah actually i knew that, but i had somehow always in my head equated dist-upgrade with upgrading the version of the distro [11:01] sgronblo, may install new packages or remove installed packages if that is necessary to satisfy dependencies. [11:02] sgronblo: not on ubuntu. there are other distros that use that way. but again: not ubuntu (explained some minutes ago already) [11:03] LambC, i don't think that's needed however, as i'm using really cool labels on all my ext3 FSs :o [11:04] hello [11:04] anyway, sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade seems to be installing a ton of packages [11:04] sgronblo: don't use -f [11:04] so for ubuntu do i basically always want to run dist-upgrade instead of upgrade? [11:05] llutz: dist-upgrade told me to use -f [11:05] Is there any way to create a ddable disk image file with various partitions and filesystems, without having to have a real partition first? [11:05] sgronblo: if so, it told you to use apt-get -f install not -f dist-upgrade, didn't it? [11:05] Actually it gave me slightly conflicting advice [11:06] dell laptop not working after hibernate [11:06] is there any known proper solution for xrdp usage already provided? I mean using gnome, without any additional window systems [11:06] Both "You might want to run 'apt-get -f install to correct there' and at the end 'Unmet dependencies. Try using -f' [11:06] jpentland: dd if=/dev/zero of=disk to desired size, then "fdisk disk" t create partitions inside that image file [11:07] sgronblo: put the output into a pastebin [11:07] jpentland: for size, you use bs=xxxM count=yyy option (man dd) [11:08] k1l_: For -f install? [11:08] llutz, ah so i can use fdisk on my new file like it was a block device? [11:08] jpentland: yes [11:09] sgronblo: for all. we dont see what you see there [11:09] llutz, hmm, is it possible to mount the partitions afterwards? [11:09] jpentland: sure, needs losetup for the offset [11:10] llutz, ok I will try to google this [11:10] http://www.andremiller.net/content/mounting-hard-disk-image-including-partitions-using-linux jpentland [11:11] pastebin.com/MWBHXqq3 [11:11] http://madduck.net/blog/2006.10.20:loop-mounting-partitions-from-a-disk-image/ better jpentland [11:11] llutz, thanks! this should really help [11:12] This shows the output of -f install that shows the offending No space left on device part [11:13] sgronblo, it basically says that it cannot create the directory [11:14] sgronblo, what version of ubuntu do you have, anyway? [11:14] sgronblo: what could "no space left on device" mean? :) [11:14] sgronblo: "sudo touch /forcefsck" then reboot, "sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" after reboot [11:15] sgronblo: give a "df -h" and a "df -i" in a pastebin please [11:15] k1l_: well what could it mean when df -h shows that there is ~4GB available? [11:15] k1l_, he has enough space [11:15] ix_: space, yes but inodes? [11:15] Tons of inodes, 1220608 [11:16] oh wait [11:16] sgronblo: please pastebin [11:16] that was the total column [11:16] 2582 free [11:16] that doesnt sound like a whole lot? [11:17] sgronblo, what version of ubuntu do you have? [11:18] 12.0.4.4 LTS \n \l [11:18] sgronblo;~ if no one has posted this take a look. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoverLostDiskSpace [11:21] guys anybody uses rdp/vnc with 14.04 and gnome?

[11:28] demoz: yes [11:28] does the command apt-get dist-upgrade upgrades ubuntu to the next release ? [11:28] innocent95: no [11:28] D'oh [11:28] Okay [11:29] llutz, What's the command line to upgrade it ? [11:29] llutz if i change that to 728 is throws me an error "chown: invalid user: `perica:728'" is 728 valid group number? [11:29] innocent95: do-release-upgrade [11:29] innocent95: use: do-release-upgrade for that [11:29] good [11:29] demoz: getent group 728 [11:30] that throws me nothing :o [11:30] demoz: so there is no group gid=728 on your system [11:30] demoz: as chown already told you [11:30] llutz thank you very much,i appreciate your help :) [11:31] hello, good morning [11:31] I have two network cards with two separate networks'm trying to make a routing (http://pastebin.com/0sqcsKzq) but unfortunately it shows this error (http://pastebin.com/cyxBDg2k). I believe I am not by setting the variable that is link1 and link2, could help me telling me where I can put these variables? [11:31] llutz, I got 'No new release found' message [11:31] innocent95: which ubuntu are you on? [11:31] innocent95: you try 12.04 -> 14.04? [11:31] 12.04 [11:31] innocent95: do-release-upgrade -d [11:31] hmm [11:31] and why is that happening ? [11:31] innocent95: the 12.04 to 14.04 upgrade will be opened on 24th july [11:32] innocent95: or wait until june, when 14.04.1 is out [11:32] july? ooops, july then [11:32] innocent95: that is when 14.04.1 will be released and the stable LTS upgrades are opened [11:32] trying to run some command now to figure out which dirs use all the inodes [11:33] llutz, it works when adding -d flag, what the d stands for ? [11:33] innocent95: development [11:33] aha [11:33] innocent95: as stated befor, the official LTS upgrade is opened in july [11:34] Yes [11:34] it's not official then [11:35] innocent95;~ have a read. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/04/upgrade-ubuntu-14-04-12-04 [11:36] philinux, Okay [11:38] what's the alternative for debian users, i mean do-release-upgrade ? [11:38] innocent95: change sources.list, run update/dist-upgrade [11:38] usualy chage sources [11:38] innocent95: more info in #debian [11:38] ^^ [11:40] i think " sudo apt-get install update-manager-core && do-release-upgrade " should work for 12.04 lts to 14.04 lts, or am i wrong? [11:40] innocent95: please ask in debian for their specific upgrade solutions [11:41] k1l, Yes i do [11:41] OerHeks: its opened in july when 14.04.1 is released. [11:42] OerHeks: until then there will be no new LTS version offered [11:42] k1l, i know, but for those who cannot wait? [11:42] OerHeks: do-release-upgrade -d [11:42] OerHeks: they can use the development LTS upgrade path [11:42] but if you want a stable LTS system that should not be the way to go.

[13:16] is a flashing caps lock an indication for a kernel panic?

You'll see a window that says "network connections", click on "add", select "Mobile Broadband" a [13:29] Somaya: you can find out the values from your windows setup as well, but I don't know how, exactly [13:29] somewhere in network configurations, I assume [13:31] lacrymology : tnx [13:34] Hi, I've got a USB issue.

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS make that if it installs ok, since I also don't feel like upgrading a distro version every 18 months or so on there. However I haven't installed Ubuntu for quite a while, but if I remember correctly the installer will even detect settings from Windows such as for example email account setitngs for Outlook 2007?

[15:50] does antone know why this distro went out of support end of life what ever maverick 10.10 ubuntu [15:50] lonedog: i'm afraid that version is unsupported and we won't be able to assist with any problems regarding it [15:50] is there any way to hook on to the installer and get a frontend using ssh as the conduit ? [15:50] lonedog: why == time [15:50] lonedog: because times move on and the focus must be kept on current things [15:50] lonedog: because non LTS releases are only supported for 18 months. [15:51] Pici: well 9 months now :d [15:51] slart: not haveing any problems other then if I go to another computer with a diff harware config if wont work [15:52] lonedog: and you're probably not getting updates [15:52] sebsebseb: yep, but it was 18 when Maverick was released. [15:52] oh ok [15:53] that seems kinda silly and contricting to move to somthing els and forget aboutn others imho [15:54] seems kind of silly to pentest with such old ubuntu [15:54] lonedog: it's actually not in software development terms. however unfortunately this channel is for support questions only, so i'm afraid you'll have to join #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like to discuss the pros and cons of OS support further. [15:54] is there another ubnutu version that is current and simalar to it [15:54] lonedog: you may get on with xubuntu or lubuntu [15:54] ok thanks [15:54] lonedog: not quite, but you can intall things that look similar to the old GNOME 2, XFCE/Xubuntu , Lubuntu/LXDE etc [15:55] anyone ? [15:55] sebsebseb: I realy need the funtionality not the look I dont care what it looks like [15:55] wmv video file not open ubuntu 14.4 but why? [15:55] lapion: you might be able to X-forward the installer from another system i guess [15:56] daftykins, the installer is allready running. [15:56] sharif_, some .wmv are encrypted, some are not [15:56] slove help me [15:56] I need interactivity with the install from remote mid-install [15:57] for now all I have is the log file. === wycats___ is now known as wycats [15:57] but agaisn thanks [15:57] everyone [15:57] lapion: has something gone wrong with the actual host installing? [15:58] the xserver had a hang-time-out and crashed.. however the upgrade is still well on itś way. === No is now known as Guest55747 [15:58] anyone help me [15:58] sharif_, sorry, no go, if the wmv is encrypted with drm [15:59] lapion: i think you're out of luck - i'd have thought the update processes died with X though [15:59] when i install a program in ubuntu it says you can allocate the program , how can i? [15:59] daftykins, only the frontend is not available.. the dpkg logfile is at full swing [16:00] can you answer me? [16:00] Somaya: what do you mean 'allocate' the program? [16:01] daftykins, I am quite content to have it finish this way, however the interaction at the end is going to pose a problem. [16:01] hi, how do i solve errno 5 - input/output while installation ? [16:01] i am unable to install ubuntu on my pc [16:01] I have formatted a drive with MBR and FAT but Windows 7 is seeing it as unknown primary partition. I know this probably a windows thing BUT is there anything I forgot to do on the Ubuntu side? [16:02] lapion: you've already answered user details etc though no? [16:02] I used the ubuntu disk admin tool to do the job. [16:02] why no one replying me [16:02] daftykine: it means i should save my program , my question is , which command should i write? [16:02] !patience | dukecore [16:02] dukecore: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [16:03] Somaya: sorry but your question doesn't make any sense. upon installing a program, it's there - there is no allocation needed, unless you're not running a proper installation? [16:03] it is an upgrade the only question is if you agree witht the upgrade.. however after the upgrade finishes it will ask if I want to delete the leftover files.. and sometimes it should also ask if I want to stop certain processes [16:06] daftykins, I am upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04 [16:07] lapion: i'm sure once it stops doing things you can just reboot and do those manually if need be [16:07] I have some boot problems with linux on my mac http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/129419/how-do-i-get-my-dual-boot-to-behave-correctly [16:07] lapion: you'll just have to watch patiently for disk activity to die off! :) [16:07] daftykins, I need to know if I can start the frontend and hook it to any pipe used by the upgrader [16:07] lapion: well if you can, that's beyond me i'm afraid. but as i say i don't think you're in any danger. [16:08] daftykins, ok I am allready doing so.. I am logged in through ssh and I can use X over ssh and tail the dpkg logfile [16:08] sorry i was wrong when i install the program it says : unable to locate the package [16:09] the X over ssh is unrelated to the tail of the dpkg.log [16:09] Somaya: can you open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" ? [16:10] daftykins: ok i will [16:11] Hi guys, I am experiencing a somewhat serious problem, simply put I can't update, and here is what happens: [16:11] http://tny.cz/82d96a70 === lukas_ is now known as Guest89437 [16:11] Also there is a red circle sign in the righ upper corne of the screen telling me about an error asking me to run apt-get update [16:12] is there anything I can do to correct this problem? [16:12] Radon_3: looks like you've added a repo that's non-standard there - mirrors.us.kernel.org , any thoughts? [16:13] Radon_3: Unsure but have you tried a different mirror? [16:13] hello , /home/tasab how i can change tasab folder to any name without any defect to my home folder , thanks [16:13] not really, ok, I am going to try a different mirror [16:13] Radon_3: i'd recommend reverting to the main ubuntu one if issues are being had [16:14] Radon_3: you are aware you are using a 3rd party repo? [16:14] Radon_3: and that 3rd party repo changed their key. so run" sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 40976EAF437D05B5" [16:15] what the.... I wanted to change my mirror using update manager I get this error: http://tny.cz/c8cca715 [16:16] k1l: think it's worth nuking the file mentioned in the above? [16:16] k1l: is it safe to do that? [16:17] and for the other error: "sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -rf" and then "sudo apt-get update" [16:17] daftykins: i don what you said but again it says unable to locate the package [16:17] Radon_3: i dont know if that 3rd party repo is safe for you. its your choice to use that [16:17] Somaya: what did the first half of the command output? can you paste it to paste.ubuntu.com and share a link? [16:18] k1l: what is 3rd party repo guys???? [16:18] Radon_3: that repository is not from ubuntu. so we dont know what packages you get there. [16:18] i can't share a link [16:18] then what repository should I be using? [16:18] Somaya: is that system offline? :) [16:19] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#Third-Party_Software_Tab [16:19] I have 7 USB Pen Drives that are now read only after plugging them into my USB Ports to copy information back to a hard disk and then to load them with more information to use in class [16:19] Radon_3: you should know why you added that 3rd party repo to your system. it doesnt come included [16:19] maheanuu: i'd have given up after the first 3 times myself [16:20] no it is online [16:21] Somaya: how come you can't share a link though? [16:21] daftykinsI had no idea that they would automatically be refigured as read only, how do I get out of this mess? [16:21] daftykins, the above was for you [16:22] maheanuu: well if you'd like to pop one in and open a terminal, could you run "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "mount | pastebinit" and share the link? [16:25] k1l: which repository did I add to my system? kernel.org you mean? [16:25] Radon_3: yes [16:25] Radon_3: yes [16:25] well it is listed in the list of update-manager [16:26] Radon_3: right, which means it was added. [16:26] oh, I see, I am a totall dummy, ok so how can I use an official one? === max is now known as Guest11352 [16:27] daftykins:paste.ubuntu.com/7399607 [16:27] daftkins, I did the sudo apt-get installpastebininit then tried the mount | pastebininit and ittells me command not found [16:28] Radon_3: ubuntu ships own kernels. why do you want/need the kernels form kernel.org? [16:28] hi all, I had a 160Gb drive that i made an image of using clonezilla, the drive died and i replaced it with a 1tb, and restored an imaget to it, now gnome thinks it is a 160GB drive not the 1tb that it is. is there a wab i can expand the partion so thatit is the 1tb that it should be seen as without loassing my data [16:28] dafykins: is it ok? [16:29] k1l: no reason, I was actually just thinking that kernel.org was also hosting ubuntu files. [16:29] ;( [16:29] I need these for a class that I am teaching in basic electricity today [16:29] Somaya: ah, you are running 11.10 which is a very old unsupported release. you should upgrade to a newer version for things to work again, you can't find programs as the repositories are no longer available to get software [16:29] ubuntu software center started crashing suddenly, although it's not active... O.o [16:30] whoever: sure, boot a liveCD and use a program like gparted to resize the partition to the full size of the disk [16:30] how can i upgrade my ubuntu? [16:30] brb off for a cuppa coffee, I cannot think without caffiene [16:30] daftykins: ah, gparted, and expand ? [16:30] somaya, what version do u have? [16:30] 11.0 [16:30] whoever: yes sir [16:30] !eolupgrades | Somaya [16:30] Somaya: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

I use gnome flashback, i don't like unity or gnome 3x... [16:34] joao: what version are you on [16:34] joao: depends what file manager that uses [16:34] joao: i am using 14.04 and the option is there [16:34] Whoever - i use ubuntu 14.04 and gnome flash back metacity [16:34] joao: so it is possable in the unitity === bfiller is now known as bfiller_afk [16:35] it's because i don't like unity, my computador is old [16:35] and the unity is slowly [16:35] joao: if you have't screwed with unity, it should be there in the top right corner there a view icons [16:35] whoever: he's running a gnome fork, so that won't be relevant [16:35] joao: did you just do an upgrade [16:36] Yes, i use a fork [16:36] i was wondering btw, can't u create program shortcuts to desktop? [16:36] joao: you could just change your file manager. [16:36] but i don't like the news desktop interface [16:36] Devrim: thx , i just realizd he may have upgraded [16:36] daftykins: joao fallback mode is not a fork [16:36] and i had the same speed issue he is complaining of [16:36] ohh... but i don't see the option [16:37] Is there anyway to change these USB pen drives back to read/write? === kiall_ is now known as Guest5223 [16:37] Using Ubuntu 12.04.2 [16:37] xangua: i was referring to gnome flashback [16:37] joao: your using a gnome fork ? [16:37] xangua: however the distinction of whether it is or not does not help the question asker [16:38] No, i install a gnome flash back metacity [16:38] it's my default interface === Guest5223 is now known as Kiall2 [16:38] joao: so try a different file manager! [16:38] joao: have you tried to restart just for the hell of it [16:39] Will Ubuntu continue to make all my pen drives read only???? [16:39] maheanuu: did you link me to the output of the previous commands yet? [16:39] rs i will try... but i don't like the news interfaces [16:39] the old is best [16:39] joao: try xubuntu or lubuntu instead then [16:40] I cant I tried and wrote to you above that it would NOt work [16:40] I can install xfce ou lxde no? === Codmadnesspro is now known as CodmadnessproAFK [16:40] joao: or lightdm change your ui there [16:40] maheanuu: ah yes i see it now, it did not highlight me. so what does this do? "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebininit" [16:40] Yes, is a good ideia, i will try [16:40] daftykins It told me command not found [16:40] Thanks guys [16:41] daftykins, I will try it again [16:41] maheanuu: ty [16:41] jsamuel: may the windows 8 disk be with you B-) [16:42] i have not been ablet to get hibernation to work on 14.04. even after adding the file /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla [16:42] any suggestions? [16:43] anyone can suggest good dc++ client except linuxdc? [16:43] daveeejr: is your swap partition equal to or greater than your RAM size? [16:43] Hello (: [16:43] daftykins: yes, pm-hibernate does work === Brian is now known as Guest42083 [16:43] Someone earlier was asking for support for C++ on IRC. I found this on freenode ##c++ in case you are still looking. Sorry if too late [16:43] daveeejr: ah ok, that's me out of ideas then [16:44] thanks for trying daftykins [16:44] np :) [16:44] Iam not an exp user of any linux versions, i would like to host my own ircserver and be able to use my own .com domain for it. What roles do i need to install on the box? [16:44] let's see if the bot has something useful [16:44] !hibernate [16:44] nope seems not [16:44] darn [16:45] it was working a little while ago, but after an update, just stopped appearing. the update had deleted that file. so then i added it back, but it didn't do anything [16:45] Guest42083: you need to pick an IRCd and install it. the rest will be down to your home networking and registering a domain to point to your home IP address. however, i'd advise you that you'll need to be quite experienced to keep an IRCd running well, it'll be a big undertaking [16:46] I want to use irc as a chat channel from in-game to outgame, i will use it for a gameserver. But these things are kinds new to me [16:46] hello can i ask for help? [16:46] Guest42083: do you own a domain [16:46] Yes i do [16:47] Do i need such thing as bind9 ? [16:47] Guest42003: I looked into that awhile ago as I was interested also and found out what daftykins was saying, it is a big undertaking and mostly takes a lot of disk resources the more channels you host. A good one though if you just want to learn. [16:47] Guest42083: ok do you have your mail accounts configured [16:47] who help me ? [16:47] Yep via outlook [16:47] daftykins, when I try to to the sudo apt-get install pastebininit, it tells me "Unable to locate package pastebininit [16:47] I added the records in the table of my domain [16:47] Guest42083: not BIND no [16:47] maheanuu: what about the "sudo apt-get update" before it?

But, i like the gnome 2x. So... it's boring don't have a column view option, only list and icon view [16:50] Yes, but then im not using my own domain. Or can i CNAME it or something?

If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [16:59] daftykins, I must leave here, I have 2 Dr.s appointments and bill paying as it is the first of the month here in French Poly and Bills MUST be paid [16:59] daftykins use driver for atiradeon site [17:00] Can u run scripts on freenode ? [17:00] speaking to everyone in general [17:00] Guest42083: yes [17:00] Guest42083: no offence but if you are struggling with the setup stage, an IRC server will be a serious headache. [17:00] k1l: no I did nothing by hand to the file, I just changed it using GUI version of update-manager [17:00] rezzur2292, This is not chat state your issue, and do not keep commenting. [17:00] I will be back later, and would dearly like to have this pen drives usable for my class tonite [17:00] Hello hello [17:00] Guest42083: look for config of your client and there will be info how to run scripts [17:00] Radon_3: well, then revert back to the main servers [17:01] I am having some volume notification issues. Can not seem to find out what it is. Even got a new keyboard just in case. [17:01] I want to share this computers internet via ethernet cord to my windows machine. How do I do this? [17:01] Guest42083: whein i join deamoniz, i am the only one there [17:01] well all im asking is, does anyone know how i would go about updating or checking my video driver so i can see if it needs updating ... [17:01] k1l: ok I have done that in update-manager now, and I want to run the exact set of commands you gave me earlier, will that do it? [17:01] The notification shows that the volume is full but I can not seem to find out why it would want to display it once every 10-15 minutes or so. [17:01] Hi. Just wanna say hi. My friend wanna see how does an IRC looks like [17:01] for some reason, my computer seems to only use one core. does anybody know how to fix that? [17:01] DrGrov, "volume notification" meaning exactly what? [17:02] gimme me "hi" back [17:02] aiFrantz: Hi [17:02] Beldar: It keeps popping up in the upper right corner as a notification showing the current volume [17:02] Radon_3: if update-manager works again just run "sudo apt-get update&& sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [17:02] thanks dtigue. see ya later [17:02] DrGrov, That is a bit strange, sorry I missed your description while typing. ;) [17:02] Beldar: No worries :) [17:03] DaRRk0: you may want to update, which ubuntu are you on? [17:03] Beldar: It sure is strange. Got a new keyboard today, a Logitech k320 wireless just in case if it would have been a keyboard issue. [17:03] daftykins 14.04 [17:03] k1l: but after running apt-get update the last time in terminal (cause i removed the folders you told me to) it downloaded a huge set of files from kernel.org, will it be alright to just change to main servers in update-manger and just run apt-get update? [17:04] daftykins maybe someone driver missing [17:04] and yes update manager works again thanks to you man [17:04] Radon_3: yes [17:04] daftykins how chek this [17:04] Beldar: I did check the HDMI cable between the computer and TV and it seemed fine. But the issue has been missing before and coming back from time to time. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot it? [17:04] DaRRk0: well, like i say, try updating to a newer version [17:04] !ati | DaRRk0 [17:04] DaRRk0: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [17:04] k1l: thank you a billion times. [17:05] DrGrov, Not really myself, kinda a strange one to try and find on the web, not sure the foo [17:05] Beldar: Could it be some sound settings interfering due to the HDMI setup I have? That it keeps picking up the "wrong" HDMI and checking it again and again? [17:06] daftykins Is not this the latest version? [17:06] daftykins 14.04 [17:06] DrGrov, I have not messed with hdmi, I have the TV, but the computer is to old. [17:06] Beldar: Ok :) [17:07] Does anybody know why Ubuntu might not recognize all the cores of my computer? [17:07] Beldar: I just got a strange feeling that I did some volume setting changes last time it occured and got rid of the notification popping up. [17:07] Beldar: The problem is... I can not remember :) [17:08] Beldar: Is there any way to completely disable keyboard shortcuts like volume buttons and such? [17:08] daftykins VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Turks XT [Radeon HD 6670/7670] [17:08] Beldar: But I can not imagine it is due to that either to be honest. [17:08] tailcalled: Running 32-bit or 64-bit? [17:08] DrGrov: 64 [17:09] DrGrov: 13.10 [17:09] tailcalled: Then that is truely strange. What processors you got? [17:09] DrGrov, I see this controller from a ppa, probably not the best answer. Both have up to trusty support. http://www.webupd8.org/2011/05/configurable-notifyosd-bubbles-for.html [17:10] DrGrov, Just a guess here, just a heads up. [17:10] DrGrov: AMD FX something something which I will look up [17:10] Beldar: I have managed to get the notification to show up just for one second. Can that really disable it completely or? [17:10] Has anyone got the Windows key working in Ubuntu? [17:10] tailcalled: You have tested if the cores show up while running htop from a terminal? [17:10] lolmaus, For? [17:10] DrGrov: AMD FX 8150 [17:10] DrGrov: yes. they don't seem to [17:10] Beldar: being able to use it as a modifier for custom shortcuts. [17:10] DrGrov: cat /proc/cpuinfo says I only have one [17:11] tailcalled: Been checking up in the BIOS if there are any restrictions set on some of the cores? [17:11] For anything. The Windows key just won't work by default, it can't be mapped to. [17:11] lolmaus, Ah, Windows key looked like running say word in wine to me, not sure on your actual issue. [17:11] DrGrov: well, I got it working some time ago [17:12] Beldar: I mean, is that bubbles configuration able to get certain notifications completely disabled? Might be an XFCE bug as well perhaps. Will have to look into the possibility that it might be XFCE causing it. [17:12] DrGrov: do you have anything I should look for? [17:12] DrGrov: also, cpuinfo in case you want to know http://pastebin.com/anUDj1jG [17:12] DaRRk0: sure that's just a card model though, doesn't say anything about the driver [17:12] How do i change the apt-get install location? [17:12] tailcalled: Not directly but I will look into that pastebin you posted.

Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [17:13] William88, Why and your end goal would be helpful. [17:14] hey, does anyone know if aptana studio support is on freenode [17:14] ? [17:14] tailcalled: Unfortunately that pastebin did not share any light on me on what might be the issue. [17:14] !alis | anonynimity you could also check the site web [17:14] anonynimity you could also check the site web: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* [17:14] Beldar: Would it be a good time now to switch already from 13.10 to 14.04? [17:15] I have installed ubuntu on my ssd and its now full and i wounder how i can change the apt-get location to a other disk [17:15] DrGrov, Depends on what you need I suppose, I can't say what you need, it goes eol in july I believe. [17:15] Beldar: Yes, that is my main concern. That I will not be able to get it installed as fast as I need before 13.10 reaches the end of line. === Ricardo^ is now known as El_Gallo_May0 === El_Gallo_May0 is now known as Ricardo^ [17:16] William88, Not really a logical process. How big is the ssd, what all is there as in other OS..etc. [17:17] My ssd is on 120gb [17:17] If I remove ubuntu-desktop, will it remove "Gnome" session as well? [17:17] Beldar: I think I might have figured it out. The Analog Output is still acting like a ghost there even though I am not using it all. Perhaps that is the key. It was acting as a fallback,. I hope it is gone now. Monitoring and analyzing what is going on. [17:17] DrGrov, I never upgrade, I save app lists and repos and keys and fresh install load these and have a upgraded install in less than an hour, not the 4 for an upgrade. [17:17] skinux: ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage, so it won't remove anything [17:18] skinux: why are you doing this? [17:19] I've been having problem(s) referenced http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=849089&page=2, and so far I haven't found a way to resolve it. If I login to "Gnome" session instead of "Ubuntu" then system works fine except for no desktop icons. [17:19] Beldar: Okay, then I will just wait a bit and see how 14.04 evolves :) Still got a few months. === brat197 is now known as brat|away [17:19] Beldar: And knowing myself it will be at the last second I manage to install it ;.) [17:19] William88, So ubuntu is tiny compared to that, any other OS? read the questions please, and use nicks when responding to a person. [17:19] hi. spellcheck doesn't seem to be working for me on ubuntu 12.04 [17:19] Beldar: Now I think the issue is resolved. I managed to completely turn off the Analog Output profile to "Off" in the Sound Settings. [17:20] i have hunspell, aspell and lang.pack isntalled [17:20] is it safe to use visiblepw for sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified when using ssh -A user@server 'bash -s' < myscript.sh [17:20] DrGrov, cool, be backed up is all if you ride the 3rd rail. ;) [17:20] William88: "sudo apt-get clean" would remove all downloaded package files. what's taking up your space is likely elsewhere or in your /home directory [17:21] Beldar: Yes, backup is a must for me. I can not take any certainties since I know myself. Everything I touch goes sideways eventually :) [17:21] skinux: were you the person who removed python3 earlier? [17:22] not sure why ssh doesn't pass my agent/creds with ssh -A option when running the above command: ssh -A user@server 'bash -s' < myscript.sh [17:22] is there any driver for turtle beach headsets? [17:22] Beldar: Is it easy to set up a virtual machine so I can give 14.04 a test spin? The hardware I have is plenty so I thought why not use it to some good? [17:23] DrGrov, Sure I use virtualbox when needed, it has it's own drivers in general. I find ubuntu to run a bit clunky in a virtual is all, maybe my older computer. [17:24] DrGrov, If you have the room I would dual boot iit. [17:24] Beldar: Do I need any pre-earned skills to get it spinning? [17:24] Beldar: The dual boot that is. [17:24] DrGrov, vbox has it's quirks but there is this chanel and #vbox === jake is now known as Guest44116 [17:25] Beldar: Luckily then I would not be left completely alone ;-) === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [17:25] Beldar: That could end up as a complete disaster ;-) [17:25] Hey all. Total newbie. I read an article before, but lost it know. To do an update, whats the best command for that? apt-get install && apt-get upgrade ? [17:26] DrGrov, Multibooting has it's issues, but a image/clone of what you have will save any bad mistakes from being catastrophic [17:26] squeakytoy: secutiry updates will appear in the update window when they are aviable === dummy is now known as Guest87488 [17:26] Beldar: So multiboot vs. VM? What is the more sound choice of these two? [17:27] xangua, im on server [17:27] ciao a tutti! [17:27] squeakytoy, This a in the release update/upgrade yes those commands work with a sudo, or the upgrade gui [17:27] squeakytoy: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade to install Secutiry Updates [17:28] oh its update, then upgrade, ok [17:28] dist-upgrade [17:29] squeakytoy, there is also sudo apt-get dist-upgrade for kernels. Always check if any packages are held, this is a partial upgrade and not a good idea to run. [17:30] DrGrov, Either are as sound as the user, I prefer multibooting. [17:30] Beldar: Roger that Mr. Multiboot :) I will need to gather some courage before I step out in the wilderness and attempt such a bold move. [17:31] DrGrov, I have been multi booting for years though and know grub pretty well, so that helps. [17:32] I also clone all installs === brat|away is now known as brat197 [17:32] How do I install a driver which was lost during updatation?? [17:32] I just created a droplet at DigitalOcean, and I notice the keyboard layout its not (obviously) not Swedish. I am really new at Ubuntu server editions. How can I check what language keyboard layout the server has? [17:32] Beldar: Wow, hold on now. I skip the whole procedure now. This will take ages it seems, care not to make a terrible mess out of the whole setup ;-) [17:32] Alex_______, THe same way you did originally [17:33] "sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration" maybe === kiall_ is now known as Guest13963 [17:33] I have downloaded it via update manager but am unable to install it.

[18:04] Is there a way to install other packades to other disks with apt-get? [18:05] Debian is on top, followed by windows 7 followed by ubuntu14.04 [18:05] the ban said checking ident no ident response banned from server i have a host listing in EFNET RBL check it [18:06] kulus, So what hapens when you just pick ubuntu, not it's recovery? [18:06] kulus, Use nicks here, you can tab complete them. [18:06] there is a jumble of colours in the top left corner and some ascii letters but no login screen [18:07] Beldar, thanks for the tip [18:07] kulus, So the recovery option does what exactly? [18:07] with what choice from it's menu? [18:07] It boots me into Ubuntu but when I reboot it goes back to the Debian Grub [18:07] hi [18:08] Closing link politkovskaja.torservers.net [18:09] Beldar, All of the options are there, Win 7 boots to a black screen with cursor in top left corner === bfiller_afk is now known as bfiller [18:10] excuse me, how many headers are there??

What do you choose in the recovery menu that gets you a good boot to ubuntu? === andrew__ is now known as PixelSmack [18:11] Beldar, recovery options are too many to remember, one option is recover grub , but that goes back to a Debian BI upon reboot === christian is now known as Guest82364 [18:12] kulus, Well, a straight boot does not work, but the recovery does, however you can't tell us what you choose in that recovery, not much info to help you with. We in general need just the facts. [18:12] I may try it again and see what it says. #debian suggested the #ubuntu forum because the grub2 is more advanced than debians [18:13] kulus, You can have ubuntu control the grub boot if you like. [18:13] Beldar, I think the option is called recover grub, I will try again just to make sure. [18:13] would love it if anyone with ssh experience could have a look http://askubuntu.com/q/461283/33859 [18:14] Beldar, how do I do that,,, (very interested)!

Until today i was using su successfully without any prob forst i had to set a root password using sudo passwd and then it was all ok. Today however its saying authentication failed everytime i try to run su. Sudo and ssh and login from console mode all work fine but the su command is not working. So i tried to change the password using sudo passwd but didnt make a diff. Any suggestions? [18:43] Helloooo?? Can someone guide me??? [18:43] !su [18:43] sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [18:43] can you tell us what you need guiding for === xubuntu is now known as Guest49847 [18:48] vanishing: my sudo is workng fine just not su [18:54] Why are all computer geeks so left-wing when it comes to politics? [18:54] Hi, can someone help me with wine please ? [18:56] Jayl: no politics. Channel rules [18:56] Anyone know how to force Nautilus to refresh e.g. ~/Desktop from shell? [18:56] Zta: killall nautilus [18:57] Zta: you can also use nautilus --quit, but i usually just kill it (it will restart a moment later) [18:57] is there any way of making ubuntu look more "polished"? It kinda looks tacky atm [18:57] module000: -q never restarts here. [18:58] I often use a soft rag to polish === stew_ is now known as Guest90974 [18:59] module000: There's no other more elegant way? Perhaps send it SIGUSR or something? [18:59] Zta: not that I know of, but the man page is really short...doesn't list much [19:01] how does ssh-askpass work? [19:02] can it ask for sudo password from ssh connection initiator? [19:02] How are you? [19:02] please help me.

[19:08] I'm having issues installing ubuntu 14.04 server from USB. I created the usb drive using usb-creator (for some reason unetbootin didn't work). After I select the keyboard language, I get a blank (purple with one gray line at the bottom) screen. [19:08] I dropped to busybox and found out in /var/log/syslog that "modprobe: invalid option --'l'" [19:09] and "mount: mounting /dev/sdc on /cdrom failed: Invalid argument" [19:09] ldiamond: did you create it on an ubuntu system? [19:09] daftykins, yes [19:10] ldiamond: check the MD5 hash of your download to confirm it's good, then remake the flash drive using "dd if=/path/to/file.iso of=/dev/sdx" where sdx = sdb or whatever you flash drive device is [19:10] yes I did that and the md5 is correct [19:10] I tried using dd, widn't work [19:10] it's not possible for it not to work [19:10] it'll need sudo in front [19:10] yea well, the command worked and all [19:10] just not the resulting drive [19:11] and it was definitely the main device not a sub partition such as /dev/sdb1 or so on? [19:11] yes [19:11] of course [19:11] ldiamond: ok, well you could dd zeroes onto the first couple of hundred MB and try again [19:11] but i'd definitely say that one sounds sketchy. or you could try it with another computer i guess [19:12] hi [19:12] i've problems with audio, i don't listen anything [19:13] daftykins, yea well, that's the one I need ubuntu on :p [19:14] hello [19:14] I remember having an issue like this before, the drive wouldn't mount properly for the installation. I guess I could ctrl-alt-f2 before choosing the keybd language and mount to /cdrom manually === wessly is now known as Guest98893 [19:15] alex____, This post does not have all the info, did it finish okay? http://paste.ubuntu.com/7400290 === WLM|weg is now known as WLM|eten [19:17] ldiamond: right, but this is called 'diagnosis' :) === calimero8282 is now known as nonsonoalpc-cali [19:22] daftykins, actually, I just tried again and /cdrom is properly mounted this time [19:22] still freezing though [19:22] (not entirely freezing, I can press keys and they show up at the bottom) [19:22] clear all [19:23] oh well, it just randomly started now. [19:23] ldiamond: worth memtesting the machine? [19:23] could do. it's an old piece of junk [19:27] I have installed ubuntu mini and apparently lightdm is not working. How do I uninstall --purge lightdm and install gdm? I have no desktop but I have alt + F2 terminal up. [19:27] hey, where do i found my apache conf files and the vhost? [19:27] g.evening everyone [19:28] need some help installing ubuntu server 14.04lts on HP Proliant ML310 G5. It seems ubuntu cant find embedded raid controller :( [19:30] guest98765: Minimal install -> did you install xorg ? === WLM|eten is now known as WolfLambert [19:31] Is it possible that my machine supports 4 slots of RAM but only have an actual slots of 2?

[19:35] Bashing-om: Xorg does not show up in top [19:35] guest98765: Terminal command -> dpkg -l xorg <- . [19:35] Drake_: it doesnt see your disks or what? [19:35] hi [19:36] magicflakes: I read it as 16 gigs could be installed (max) and that presently one of those 4 slots has a 2 gig chip installed. [19:36] i have array configured in controller, but ubuntu setup cant find any disk to install to or create partition [19:37] is echo -n supoosed to be valid in an init script in ubuntu? [19:37] Drake_: what controler is that? [19:37] Bashing-om: I opened the machine and it has only 2 slots. I wonder where the other 2 are... [19:37] Bashing-om: last line says >> ii xorg 1:7.7+ubunt i386 xorg window system [19:38] magicflakes: maybe it doesnt have more [19:38] magicflakes: it might be that the chipset supports more but your specific board doesnt [19:38] magicflakes: maybe look at the user manual to find out how many slots it actualy has [19:39] magicflakes: 2 slots with double capcity ( side by side) to give ya a total of 4 (??). [19:39] Okay I'll check the manual.. [19:39] Thanks guys. [19:40] guest98765: OK, xorg is installed, What Desktop invironment ( again) did you install ?? > see what it takes to start that gui from terminal. [19:42] Bashing-om: All I selected was the lubuntu minimal install. I caught lightdm using top in terminal. [19:42] spec says only that it is a HP embedded sata raid controller (chip is adaptec) [19:42] Hello, is anyone on? [19:45] guest98765: OK, Lubuntu mimi is somewhat different than a "minimal" install. Any way, presently you have lightdm and GDM installed ? correct ? [19:46] guest98765: What do you mean by "lightdm not working"? What happens when you try to boot? [19:47] Drake_: can you do a lscpi? [19:47] Drake_: no sure if the installer has that [19:47] Bashing-om: Do you want me to try startx? No GDM as of yet. I want to try and remove lightdm >> sudo apt-get purge lightdm* and install GDM without reloading. [19:47] Jordan_U: Hello, A besst of day to ya ! Good to read ya once more. === Shane is now known as Guest5227 [19:49] Hi all, just an update, I got all 3 OS's back up and running on my main desktop [19:49] kulus, Cool, what worked? [19:49] Bashing-om: I get to the screen that says "Lubuntu" then the dots appear under lubuntu it tries to go to the desktop, blinks for about a quarter of a second then goes back to the lubuntu splash screen and does it all over again. [19:49] bel [19:50] Beldar, the program I downloaded to repair boot disks [19:50] kulus, bootrepair? [19:50] guest98765: That's most likely a problem with X starting rather than a problem specific to lightdm. I expect that GDM will therefore have the same problem. Please pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log . [19:51] Beldar, boot-repair-disk-64bit.iso http://sourceforge.net/projects/boot-repair-cd/files/ [19:52] guest98765: you might want to login from console (ctrl+alt+f1) and do "ls -l .Xauthority" if it's owned by root, that might be your problem (this can be caused by using sudo, instead of gksudo, with GUI apps) [19:52] guest98765: Now that sounds like it is hunting for a Display Manager, and not finding one.... do you know how to boot "text" mode from the grub menu ? Let's see what results with starting the GUI from terminal. [19:52] Beldar, It isn't perfect, there is still a bit of static when booting Ubuntu but Win7 and Debian also boot fine now [19:52] kulus, Great tool, I never need it bit we suggest it all the time, or just the bootrepair app to ubuntu, it kicks out a bootinfo summary that is quite helpful, good job. === The is now known as Guest48248 [19:53] Beldar, thanks, 6:30am til now...whew! [19:53] ;) [19:54] 13.10 - will it not start init scripts with echos in them on boot? [19:54] mgolich: lspci found that i have intel 82801 controller in raid mode [19:54] Beldar, L8R Beldar, I'll recommend this channel to other Ubuntu users! [19:54] kulus, This is a great place for help. [19:55] Beldar, Agreed! :) [19:55] Beldar, Bye now! [19:55] Bashing-om: All I selected was the lubuntu minimal install. I caught lightdm using top in terminal. [19:57] guest98765: Understood - see Jordan_U 's request also - good to know ! // Have you ever had this Lubuntu minimal install booting to the desk top ? - are we installing, or repairing for this issue ? [19:57] mgolisch: and when i go to detect disks it says: "one or more drives containing SATA RAID configurations has been found. do you wish to activate these RAID devices?" at this point it doesnt matter will i say yes or no i get partiton disks screen but no disks to partition [19:58] Drake_: you might want to consider using linux software raid instead [19:59] Drake_: this page might contain some more tips on using such a fake raid controler : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [19:59] Jordan_U: I only have terminal up on this machine, so if I do the command and >> >info.txt >> send it to a file. I only have one USB slot on this machine and I do not know if it will work. [20:00] Hi [20:00] guest98765: Can you connect this machine to the internet via ethernet? === brad_ is now known as sencha [20:00] WTF_ [20:01] zykotick9: no such file or directory [20:01] Hi again, I have just installed clamav and now I don't know if 'freshclam' is running in the background or not, how can i check for that? [20:02] guest98765: and you're in your home directory? you can type "cd" by itself to get there quickly [20:02] mgolisch: thanks for help, even though hp website states that ubuntu is supported, there is no driver for it. looks like im gonna use ubuntu raid instead. [20:02] zykotick9: They've never started X as their user, so it's not surprising that they have no ~/.Xauthority. [20:03] radon 3 - ps aux | grep freshclam [20:03] Jordan_U: if Xorg isn't even starting, then nomodeset might be an issue... [20:03] Bashing-om: boot to the desktop.. no... I have done everything for installation. Removed CD and rebooted never getting to the desktop. [20:04] chromium browser disappears when you switch workspaces on xubuntu [20:04] anyone else have problems with chromium [20:04] NapoleonWils0n: I got this : http://tny.cz/584cada3 what does it mean? [20:05] Jordan_U: connected by WIFI . [20:05] How do I dual boot Windows and Ubuntu? [20:05] I already have them both installed. [20:05] guest98765: // Jordan_U .. graphics driver ? // we do need to look at your "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" file. [20:06] hi radon the first line means clam is running freshclam [20:06] radon 3 so freshclam is running [20:06] sorry, hi [20:06] someHuman, sounds like a grub problem. [20:06] what does the second line mean? === WolfLambert is now known as WLM|zzzzz [20:06] zykotick9: i am in the root directory... VMLinuz is the last entry in the list [20:06] Nightwalkerkg: IKR. [20:06] But how do I do it though? [20:06] guest98765: do you mean / or /root? who are you logged in as? [20:06] the second line is showing what you just searched using - ps aux | grep freshclam [20:07] Because if you already had one of them and installed the second one after,when you boot the pc it should give you an option to select which one you want to boot. [20:07] *turn on the pc [20:07] Bashing-om: I can get there but I do not know how to get it off the machine? [20:07] Nightwalkerkg: I have to press F9 just to boot into Ubuntu. [20:07] NapoleonWils0n: thank you so much man [20:07] Loads Windows by default(if I just leave it). [20:07] radon 3 you can stop fresh clam by using the number next to clamav [20:08] if you want to stop freshclam make a note of the number next to clamav [20:08] I want it to update, I don't want to stop it, I was actually asfraid if it was running two process and just wasting my bandwidth [20:08] then run - sudo kill 3308 [20:08] someHuman, Try to reinstall it,but when you get to the partition part,on the botom there is an option for grub,just make sure to select the right one. [20:08] I mean updating twice [20:08] zykotick9: I am in the root directory with no SU or SUDO... just regular me. [20:08] Or you can try the boot-repair. [20:09] someHuman: did you install boot to the MBR of the first drive, or did you change it's location? I'm assuming F9 on your machine is a "boot selection" of some sort, which would suggest - grub isn't installed in the right place, for _normal_ dual-booting. [20:09] zykotick9: Yeah. [20:10] zykotick9: Nope I haven't done anything with boot. [20:10] guest98765: sudo apt-get install pastebinit , cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit : relay the resulting url back to us. As you have internet connectivity, the file will be uploaded to our pastebin. [20:10] guest98765: well, .Xauthority is in your home directory, not root. but, by what Jordan_U said, if Xorg has never been started, then he's probably right - you wouldn't have the file yet... [20:10] zykotick9: Hopefully I don't have to reinstall either OS. [20:10] someHuman, try the boot-repair then. [20:11] radon 3 heres a list of all my tips - https://github.com/NapoleonWils0n/cerberus [20:11] Nightwalkerkg: I am in Windows by the way. [20:11] someHuman, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows [20:11] NapoleonWils0n: wow [20:12] bless you man [20:12] cool radon you can download all the files with git [20:12] someHuman: sorry, i meant to type, "did you install grub to the MBR of the first drive.." [20:12] NapoleonWils0n, cerberus. I think there is a RAT with that name. xD [20:12] thank you,I am going to bookmark the page [20:13] cerberus is the dog that guards the gates to the underworld - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerberus [20:13] zykotick9: I'll try the link, sounds legit. [20:14] someone: fyi, whatever link you are talking about, it wasn't my suggestion... so i can't confirm/deny it's legitimacy === jake is now known as Guest76892 [20:14] ok, thank you everyone, I have to go sleep now [20:14] Bashing-om: pastebinit is there a colon after it? pastebin : with a space?

Any pointers? [20:17] NapoleonWils0n, lol,i know who Cerberus is. I am talking about the RAT Cerberus. :P [20:17] only rat i know of is is roland rat from back in the 80s [20:18] xD [20:18] :-) [20:19] hello [20:19] chromium brower windows dissapear when i switch workspaces [20:19] NapoleonWils0n, RAT - Remote Administration Tool. xD Cerberus is a client used to make a backdoor. [20:19] i have heard of ratting [20:20] also heard of dogging [20:20] lol [20:20] xD [20:21] no one else have problems with chromium [20:21] guest98765: "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" is one command to get the tool ; "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit" uploades the file. [20:21] I am going to download windows8.1 [20:21] half the window disapear when i switch workspaces [20:21] Hi, I installed the fglrx driver using the ATI .run installer, without using the distro-specific package option. [20:22] seems to be a year old bug, must be a fix by now surely [20:22] but wtf//so large. 3.4GiB? [20:22] I had an issue, and tried to uninstall it using /usr/share/fglrx-uninstall.sh [20:22] OperaGhostkv: Ask ##windows [20:22] !ot | OperaGhostkv [20:22] OperaGhostkv: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [20:22] NapoleonWils0n: I run lxde... .and windows are workspace-specific, unless launched otherwise, so in lxde if I want a google-chrome window to show on the other workspaces, I'd set that in the window-title-context menu [20:22] And now I'm stuck on llvmpipe, and unable to reinstall the open-source driver for Trusty. [20:22] Bashing-om: i can not download it... I tried update but it is not going anywhere. [20:22] I can't really purge fglrx as I never installed via apt or dpkg [20:23] em sorry [20:23] NapoleonWils0n: so.... what you described, is normal window behaviour [20:23] I'd appreciate assistance if anyone is knowledgeable with ATI video drivers [20:23] bprompt no its not [20:23] I know [20:23] I use ati card [20:23] hexafraction: i believe there is an ##ati or #ati channel for support of their foo.run driver (it isn't here)... [20:23] i mean the chromium window only shows bits of the window [20:24] and then the desktop underneath [20:24] ohh.... half-chromium window....hmmm [20:24] close source driver? [20:24] zykotick9: I am not trying to use that driver. I'm tring to get Xorg to use the FOSS one now [20:24] guest98765: Serious problems ? What results from terminal command -> sudo apt-get update <- ?? [20:24] NapoleonWils0n: sounds like videocard drivers issue [20:24] yes bprompt - i have to mouse over the page to make it redraw [20:24] hexafraction: IMO, once you installed that foo.run you broke your install - my suggestion, reinstall, and don't make that same mistake again. best of luck. [20:24] im trying to make a shell script in ubuntu. i made a script called my_script in ~/bin and used chmod on the script. how do i run it globally [20:24] open sources drive in auto configured when you install ubuntu [20:25] seems to be a bug that goes back a year [20:25] Bashing-om: failed to fetch? Can I check WiFi at command line and turn it on? [20:25] driver [20:25] zykotick9: Logically, there should be a config file that selects which driver to load, that will then leave the other driver as a bunch of non-loaded files. Where is it? [20:25] in /etc/X11 [20:26] I have doubts that Xorg just "decides" to permanently use fglrx and doesn't have some config file it reads. [20:26] NapoleonWils0n: are you running stable version? maybe if you changed versions [20:26] And I do not have xorg.conf at all, as it seems Trusty didn't need it to load the open-source driver [20:26] nathanesau1: "my_script". Note that if you have not logged in since you created ~/bin/ then it hasn't been automatically added to your $PATH, but will be added to $PATH the next time you log in. [20:26] guest98765: Sorry, I have never used WIFI, I have not the experience to advise. Definitely the 1st priority ( if you have no wired ability !). [20:26] just regular version via apt-get [20:27] OperaGhostkv: Yes, I know. I tried to install another one and wish to go back. The original never got uninstalled [20:27] Bashing-om: The light is green/on on the router? [20:27] Is there a way to reinstall the Ubuntu system over an existing set of user directories/configurations? [20:27] ok thanks jordan_u. i guess it hasn't been added to the path yet [20:27] Bashing-om: for the NIC [20:28] hexafraction. there is a script to uninstall close source driver [20:28] OperaGhostkv: Which I have run already. [20:28] It completed "normally" but did not actually put me back at the previous configuration. [20:28] guest98765: what does "iwconfig" say? [20:28] hexafraction: Yes, Ubuntu's installer can re-install preserving /home/, but not preserving "system" directories (basically, anything outside /home/). [20:28] ok ..you need to configure your open sources driver again. [20:28] /home is on the same partition as / [20:29] OperaGhostkv: Yes, I know. I'm asking how to do that. [20:29] I'm not on fglrx now. I'm on llvmpipe. [20:29] hexafraction: Ubuntu's installer doesn't require /home/ to be on a separate partition to preserve it during install. [20:29] hexafraction: Though you need to be explicit about doing so. [20:29] Bashing-om: no lo and no eth0 extensions [20:29] Jordan_U: really? that's kinda cool... TIL [20:29] Explicit at which stage? [20:29] guest98765: One can look at "networks" -> sudo lshw -C network , lspci | grep Ethernet . Get an idea of what is not taking place. [20:30] I'd also back up and restore the set of installed packages but I'm afraid video drivers will get dumped into there. [20:30] I'm trying to first salvage this install. [20:30] did you get a mesa error or something? [20:31] No, I'm simply normally running, but on llvmpipe which is stuck at a pathetic screen resolution and does not offer acceletaion [20:31] *acceleration [20:32] I really need some help, all my USB Pen Drives are being set read only when I plug them into a USB socket on the computer or the hub, I am running Ubuntu 12.04.2, and this all seems to have happened in the past month since I did an extensive update [20:33] maheanuu: Please pastebin the output of "dmesg" after inserting a USB drive.

[20:44] hmm, i got an email with an invoice for an ubuntu 13.10 vps that i didn't buy. it has a zip file attached with a pdf inside [20:44] guest98765: probably "fluxbox" in that minimal lubuntu install, as the display manager. [20:45] cyphase: ubuntu doesnt sell vps [20:45] guest98765: Well, I tell ya like this, I run a true minimal install, with xfce4 as my DE and install only the application here I do so want. === root is now known as Guest68376 [20:45] !rootirc [20:45] It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. [20:46] k1l, it's a vps with ubuntu as the OS (supposedly). i didn't mean it was from canonical [20:46] * zykotick9 notes Fluxbox is a Window Manager, and not a Display Manager... as Bashing-om states above... guest98765 [20:46] cyphase: so what is the ubuntu support issue there? [20:47] guest98765: xfce4 is a complete desktop, lacking only a web browser. [20:47] who using irc as a root?I thought irc client wouldnt start in you are root [20:47] gg [20:47] OperaGhostkv: thats a wrong assumption. [20:48] why ? [20:49] guest98765: I happen to run Lubuntu on the wife's graphic station, and I must say it runs well. [20:49] is there an app out there that can move my notify box around? [20:50] Did something recently happen with the precise-security mirrorset? [20:51] Bashing-om: zykotick9 I know there is a windows manager and a display manager. I am trying to put linux on a p2 300 with 512 megs of ram using the minamal disk. do far not happening... I was thinking lightdm did not jive with the install but it might be openbox or what ever you call it... [20:52] Oop, nevermind, apparently when they published https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/1.0.1-4ubuntu5.13 they removed 5.12 [20:54] Jordan_U, do I need to put anything in front of "/proc/mounts" [20:54] bmhatfield: see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-2192-1/ [20:55] Bashing-om: maybe using this web site and installing nothing... Then installing the stuff after the install might work. >>http://www.maketecheasier.com/install-a-minimal-ubuntu-on-old-laptop/ [20:55] guest98765: oh my, that's a retro system. i wonder if that supports PAE even (which might be an issue with *buntu)? BEST of luck, you'll probably need it. [20:55] Does ubuntu-desktop package include Unity or is it only Gnome? [20:55] skinux: it includes the ubuntu standard. that is unity [20:56] Can it be removed and installed again while Unity is being used? [20:56] skinux, Heh, that is unity, which is a plugin compiz which sits on gnome 3 === SPQN is now known as AndreiCurelaru [20:57] good day [20:57] Can I remove and reinstall ubuntu-desktop while Unity is being used? [20:57] k1l: thanks! [20:58] skinnymg1, the ubuntu-desktop is unity [20:58] zykotick9: PAE is not needed until after 2 Gig is reached. My Lappy that croaked had 4 Gigs on it and yes I needed to DL the PAE version. [20:58] i am new to ubuntu, and have been searching google like its no body's biz, i cant seem to get my printer (canon) to work, i followed all the instructions but when i click print no print page [20:58] skinux, the ubuntu-desktop is unity, what is your end goal here. [20:59] guest98765: i'm just not sure if *buntu supports non-PAE systems... i suspect it does not, but could be wrong! [20:59] I want to restore to default configuration settings. [21:00] skinux, You can reset unity, look for the commands for your release [21:00] zykotick9: I had 10:04 in this machine. [21:00] I already reset Unity specifically. [21:00] greetings [21:00] skinux, Did you reboot than? [21:00] i have ubuntu 13.10 [21:00] i want to upgrade to 14.10 [21:00] skinux, use nicks. [21:00] anyone :) help printer issue [21:00] but it always fails claiming too many 3rd party packages [21:00] i have nvidia drivers [21:00] steam [21:00] playonlinux [21:01] !ppa-purge | partitionissues [21:01] partitionissues: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [21:01] and owncloud installed [21:01] i have full disk encryption [21:01] but no seperate home partition [21:01] how do i seperate my home partition on an full disk encryption [21:01] i tryied searching google [21:01] partitionissues, YOu mean 13.10 tp 14.04 right? [21:01] and all of it is either while installing [21:01] or without encryption [21:01] Beldar: yes [21:02] Bashing-om: does lightdm also have network support built in like gdm? [21:02] partitionissues, STOP, slow down and read answers, and don;t just post away!!!! [21:02] partitionissues: fyi, also you can't skip releases, so you'd have to upgrade twice, 13.10 -> 14.04 then 14.04 -> 14.10. YOu might want to _consider_ fresh installing... [21:02] i am considering a fresh install [21:02] but i have an full disk encryption [21:02] without a seperate home partition [21:02] !enter | partitionissues [21:02] !enter [21:03] * zykotick9 suddenly realizes partitionissues would need a time machine to get to 14.10 ;) [21:03] partitionissues, Don;t use the enter as punctuation, and read the posts to you. [21:03] partitionissues: i would backup all my files and stuff in home (if it wasn't already backed up ) and then do a fresh install and make sure I set /home to a seperate partition [21:04] sorry i see now, im looking to partition a seperate home dir on my full disk encryption [21:04] what do i need to back up , i read i need to copy sources and my home folder and do something to get a list of already installed stuff [21:04] Okay, I've reset Unity (and rebooted), however, desktop background is still black, still no icons, and still no right-click. [21:05] also is it possible to move my home partition to a fresh install of fedora and have it work out? [21:05] skinux, Any history leading up to this and what you did already to fix missing here? [21:05] I upgraded to latest Ubuntu version [21:06] skinux, Did you reload any graphic drivers you had loaded before? [21:06] partitionissues: IF your home is on a seperate partition then you could theoretically move it to any distro that supports the filesystem, you might need to weed out some distro specific config files but I've done it many times [21:06] I didn't have any custom graphic drivers to reload [21:06] what does the Ubuntu default desktop look like these days... haven't used it in a while [21:07] Unity. :D [21:07] no im sadly not on a seperate partition that is what im trying to do but i use full disk encryption [21:07] skinux, use nicks here it is how we know your talking to us or whom you are talking to. Did the upgrade go okay, was the desktop broken on the reboot? [21:07] look ubuntu 14.04 screenshot in google images Lingo_ [21:07] Lingo__, search for screenshots or try the live iso [21:07] Is there some place on the internet that shows what windows manager goes with what desktop manager for ubuntu mini? [21:08] guest98765, THe mini just loads a basiv cli setup, you add what you want. [21:08] ubuntu mini iso has no desktop, just a text installer [21:08] Beldar: Actually, upgrade was stopped half-way through because ran out of disk space. I had to do apt-get clean and remove some other files to finish it. [21:08] guest98765: the whole point of a DM is to select from multiple windows managers/destop environments. they shouldn't be "linked" really... [21:08] partitionissues: if I were you I would back up all of my important files and all of my important config files (if any) and do a fresh install, when doing that install make sure you set the home on a seperate partition this time, and then tell the installer to encrypt your home partition [21:09] Hey how do I stop an application to stop going to a emulator terminal and make it goto a terminal? [21:09] skinux, Ah, hmm sounds like more than I can help with. In the future that is pertinent info include it from the git go. ;) [21:09] zykotick9: I was trying to eliminate lightdm to troubleshoot. [21:09] dtigue: what do i need to backup? [21:09] how do I evaluate a function in bash in an if statement? [21:09] Beldar: It is stupid that desktop background, icons, and right-click functionality are only issues, yet seem to be so difficult to fix. [21:10] aarobc: maybe ask in ##bash? [21:10] Beldar: mini gives you a choice to install an enviornment. >> http://www.maketecheasier.com/install-a-minimal-ubuntu-on-old-laptop/ [21:10] Hey how do I stop an application to stop going to a emulator terminal and make it goto a terminal? [21:10] Codmadnesspro: Can you be more specific please? Which application does what exactly? [21:10] skinux, Not sure your point, sounds more like a rant of frustration to be honest, and a comment on your skills. [21:10] hi there, I have a HP tc4200 and for whatever reason i can't get the headphone jack to work, no matter what I've tried. Yesterday I reinstalled the entire os because changes I made crashed something. [21:10] Codmadnesspro: a "terminal emulator" _is_ a terminal? what are you asking? can you phrase it differently? [21:11] Ok so theres 2 terminals for some reason [21:11] Ones called terminal emulator and the other is just terminal [21:11] Codmadnesspro: you can have even more if you really wanted to [21:12] How do i make the app to only goto the terminal and not the emulator [21:12] Codmadnesspro: which app? [21:12] partitionissues: really all you shuld need to backup is any files you want to keep, so stuff like, documents, pictures, music, videos, any thing you've put on your desktop, if you want to keep them, and if you have done a lot of application specific configuration setup then grab that apps .config file, it will be hidden, generally most people that I deal with have no need to back up even there config files. If they do n [21:12] brom [21:12] guest98765, There is no window manager on the mini it is a cli net install, I have used it many times. What you seem to need to know is what will be installed when you choose from the many options. [21:12] Wait no [21:12] bmon [21:12] Its bandwith monitor [21:13] dtigue: what about my sources [21:13] and all my apt-get checked items [21:14] Codmadnesspro: And why is that vital which terminal emulator application is used? [21:14] Can someone help me with Ubuntu and Praat? For some reason I get PortAudio cannot open sound output: Device Unavailable. It worked a few minutes ago on the same file. What happened? [21:14] partitionissues: I would suggest you install the application aptik and use it, i've heard it is really easy to use and can restore all your installed apps quickly after a fresh install [21:14] I don't know ill screenshot it [21:14] partitionissues: check out http://www.tecmint.com/aptik-a-tool-to-backuprestore-your-favourite-ppas-and-apps-in-ubuntu/ and/or http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/01/reinstall-apps-on-ubuntu-fresh-install [21:15] Hi, how do I install recent ffmpeg in Ubuntu 14.04? [21:15] Codmadnesspro: are you sure they aren't the same already? try "echo $TERM" in each of them, which one do you want to use? [21:16] Heres the screenshot [21:16] http://prntscr.com/3gjxn6 [21:17] Beldar: ok... you are correct... Is there a place where this is documented? [21:18] !ffmpeg [21:18] Codmadnesspro: So when you open "Terminal" or "Terminal Emulator" and start bmon in it, it will stay in exactly that window. [21:18] can someone please assist me setting up my printer [21:19] maheanuu: /proc/mounts is a file, not a command. [21:19] Codmadnesspro_: yes, that is the xfce terminal emulator, if you don't like it displays direfent names in the menu you can edit it [21:19] No when i goto apps>internet>bmon then it opens up terminal emulator but i want it to goto the real terminal [21:19] Codmadnesspro: are you sure they aren't the same already? try "echo $TERM" in each of them, which one do you want to use? [21:19] Codmadnesspro: Both are real terminals. Why do you want that - why is it important to you? [21:20] No i find the emulator just stays blank [21:20] I cannot type anything in it [21:20] Just rebooting my vps one second im still here [21:21] I don't know why the emulator shows nothing [21:23] guest98765, Only in the sense of what you choose on the mini, you have choices of servers....etc, desktop....etc. You would need to find the exact package list on any of the specific choices. [21:23] Codmadnesspro_: what does "echo $TERM" say in "terminal" (the working one)? [21:23] One sec [21:24] it says xterm [21:24] guest98765, The link you showed was a "REMOVE THE BLOAT" which is a joke to me, however is that the issue here? [21:24] Codmadnesspro_: if xfce has a menu editor of some sort (i don't know if it does or not), then just change the command for bmon to be "xterm -e bmon" instead of what's there now... [21:25] Do i just type that in terminal? [21:25] Codmadnesspro_: no, is there an xfce manu editor? [21:25] It worked lol [21:25] xD [21:26] XD [21:26] I typed it in terminal and it came up perfectly [21:26] xD [21:26] Thank you [21:26] Okay. I've posted my problem to UbuntuForums with detailed information. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2221710 [21:26] right, but that doesn't change the menu! [21:26] idc ll [21:26] lol [21:26] long as it works i dont mind [21:26] thanks [21:27] wassup ubunties [21:27] maheanuu: Either "pastebinit /proc/mounts" to pastebin it directly, or "cat /proc/mounts" to display it in the terminal, or "gedit /proc/mounts" to display it in a text editor. [21:27] Codmadnesspro_: fyi, you could just start "terminal" then type bmon as well... [21:27] give me tips to make thumbnails appear with nautilus 3.10 in 14.04 [21:27] I tried rm ./thumbnailcache [21:27] guest98765: I am playing catch up here, Also active other places, back to you as soon as I have read up.

I tried removing configuration files and it wouldn't even start. thenk I reinstalled nautilus but it's still slow and freezing up. I'm geting 100% and even 115% (?)

It weird to me too [21:42] Can some one tell me how i can change the snappshot folder from virtualbox to another hard drive? :) [21:42] guest98765: Hey, I agree with bekks , the link you followed does not build you an "unbloated" system. Would you like to build ligh and fast ? I truely like xfce, and is what I am accustomed to using now. Start all over ? [21:42] light* === blindsight is now known as Guest23751 [21:44] Flada: you can change it per vm in Virtualbox gui [21:45] Derp, I think i've found an answer http://askubuntu.com/questions/319091/why-do-i-have-to-sign-into-ubunto-one-in-order-to-install-steam [21:45] Bashing-om: yes ... light...

[21:46] Bashing-om: trying to troubleshoot and thought to try the easiest... Change lightdm to gdm. [21:47] Bashing-om: if that worked then great... [21:47] guest98765: waht makes "light" is the Desktop Environment and the applications one installs, the kernel is the kernel is the kernel. I have buildt light on both boxes, and I can attest it is FAST . [21:47] Installing 14.04 64bit on a Dell Studio 17 laptop Core Duo2 4GB RAM...

[21:48] designbybeck: i'd think that error is suggesting it can't find your HD... ? [21:48] hmmm [21:48] this system dualboots win7 [21:49] it had 13.04 on there just fine [21:49] we have 12 of these laptops like this zykotick9 I was going to try to update them all to 14.04 [21:49] Bashing-om: it was trying to load the desktop, blinked, and then went back to trying to load the desktop. [21:50] Bashing-om: i figured it was either the DM or the WM. [21:50] guest98765: p2 should fly, it ran 10.04, and with the wifes station from 10.04 ubuntu -> lubuntu 12.04 was much faster. I propose to you to start over, all we will install from that basic install is xorg, xfce, and your choice of a web browser. BUT you must have a wired internet connection to do this. [21:51] designbybeck: you realize, you'd need to first upgrade 13.04 -> 13.10 then 13.10 -> 14.04 right? perhaps trying a fresh install on one (with data backed up) would be interesting?!?! Best of luck regardless... i certainly don't have any insights... [21:51] Bashing-om: allready reloading. [21:51] guest98765: a DM is needless overhead ! [21:52] Bashing-om: while _i_ personally agree, i doubt many others would... [21:52] Bashing-om: doesn't lightdm and gdm have networking inside these packages? [21:52] zykotick9, was trying to do a clean install on this [21:52] but thank you [21:53] designbybeck: ahhh, well, i'll repeat - best of luck! [21:53] ;) [21:53] zykotick9: Yeah, ain't open source wonderful. Build it like ya want it ! [21:53] Bashing-om: ok... I am listening. but only WIFI right now. [21:53] Who had been trying to help me ~30mins ago? [21:53] Bashing-om, I think it is more to do with the ATI card in these things [21:53] Bashing-om: 100% agree :) [21:54] on these laptops [21:54] Bashing-om: well, s/open source/free software/ and i'd 100% agree ;) [21:55] guest98765: NO can do with WIFI, must have a wired connection, and will work right out of the box, maybe a real pain to get WIFI up and working ! [21:55] guest98765: OLD ati card no problem, I run an old ATI card here also. [21:55] Bashing-om: that is how I am installing the packages right now... [21:56] guest98765: WOW, outstanding, if it works it works .. who am I to knock it .. surprise surprise surprise. [21:58] Bashing-om: this USB WIFI network card has worked on all linux distros when plugged in... [21:59] guest98765: Most often WIFI is a problem getting a driver installed. As the kernel can not support every driver known. Generally must install the proper wireless drivers. [22:00] Bashing-om: when I get to the place where I choose a choice of desktops. you want me to choose XFCE? [22:01] guest98765: I do not expect from a minimal install disk that there are any options ! I expect us to have to make every decision. [22:02] does anyone know the nano channel? i have a very specific nano editor question [22:02] guest98765: We are building light - I thpoght - from a "core" install, all else must be added in this type of install, - I like it ! - [22:02] !alis | mitch-_ [22:02] mitch-_: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels.

[22:06] petrov: ZFS [22:06] Bashing-om: yes... 14.04 i386 [22:07] but itsn't supported out of the box, but is easy to add but booting off ZFS is more work, best to have another smaller drive to boot === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [22:07] Where does Ubuntu store its firewall configuration? I need to set up a computer for SSH access, and it has no keyboard, so I have to mount the filesystem on another computer and fiddle with it. [22:07] jamesd: why not ext4 of xfs? [22:07] Bashing-om: did you go to my link? [22:07] guest98765: Your source is good, same same as I have been using. [22:07] SSH appears to be active, but it doesn't even respond to pings, so I'm thinking there's a firewall involved. [22:07] finally got minerd working in ubuntu [22:08] guest98765: Yes I have been there see mu XX:13 response. we want to choose nothing. [22:08] petrov: silent data corruption, snapshots, clone, in-line compression.... [22:08] naptastic: ahhh, you can't ping ssh... just sayin' [22:08] zykotick9, right, I mean telnet 22 of course :-) [22:08] Bashing-om: Manual package selection ? [22:08] naptastic: ok, just checkin' [22:09] Bashing-om: last thing on the list. [22:09] :) [22:09] jamesd: ok, it's for in raid 1. what's better software raid or bios raid :d [22:09] 'tis a good thing to check. [22:10] petrov: zfs does raid handles it all.. one command to configure... zpool create mydisk mirror disk1 disk2 [22:10] naptastic: you checked for /etc/ssh/ssh_config ? [22:10] done [22:10] guest98765: Maybe "manual" is what is on my mind. should be same same. Let's try it and see. [22:10] naptastic: may not be that one.. [22:10] viper474, yeah; it says it should listen on port 22. There's also an appropriate symlink in rc5.d. [22:11] S20-sshd or like [22:11] Bashing-om: manual package selection is checked, and we are off and running. [22:11] viper474: i believe it's sshd_config for the server isn't it? naptastic [22:11] jamesd: ok, thx for the info ! [22:11] it's /etc/ssh/sshd_config [22:11] :) [22:11] zykotick9: naptastic sounds more correct. [22:12] guest98765: OK ! We are in control, It is on us what gets installed, 1st up is -> sudo apt-get install xorg <- . [22:12] I do this for a living, but mostly on CentOS. [22:12] naptastic: did you restart the service or pc after making changes? [22:12] naptastic, make sure that you have the port forwarded / open in your router too. [22:12] Bashing-om: I do not know what I am looking at but i got something. [22:12] viper474, I haven't actually made any changes yet, and I can't attach a keyboard to the computer. [22:13] guest98765: should be at a teminal, log in, and password , [22:13] Guegs, yeah, I'm inside a trusted network, so I know it's not an internal firewall. It has to be in the OS someplace. [22:13] * naptastic thinks [22:13] Maybe I need to scan differently... [22:13] also, in terminal, type do you have ufw enabled? [22:13] sudo ufw status [22:13] and if you need it enabled, try sudo ufw allow 22 [22:13] naptastic: could you ssh localhost? I'm guessing not since you have to mount the drive. [22:14] Guegs, I can't attach a keyboard to this computer, and I can't SSH in. I have no terminal. [22:14] Is there a way to check what version of ubuntu I will end up on if I do `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`? [22:14] I'm on 10.04 now [22:14] Bas nope... installed packages on the top level... packages on your computer 272 installed. [22:14] :-/ [22:14] I have a monitor, that's all :) [22:15] Bashing-om: nope... installed packages on the top level... packages on your computer 272 installed. [22:15] a mouse? [22:15] looking at it now, I think I might be scanning wrong. Lemme try this again. [22:15] Guegs, no input devices other than the network. [22:15] naptastic: nmap would list if open, right? [22:15] heh, shot. :-P [22:15] If I wanted to run two versions of Firefox on my PC (current and older) where is the best place in the filesystem to put the older version? /usr/bin ? [22:15] guest98765: are you now at a terminal ? [22:15] It sounds like a contrived interview question for an admin position, eh? [22:15] viper474, unless I was doing it wrong, which is possible. I'm going to boot the machine and try again. [22:16] Lax: /opt/firefox or $HOME/firefox are options [22:16] kbrosnan: Thanks. [22:16] guest98765: reading the tutorial prior to step 13, see if I can see where there might have been a problem, brb. [22:16] Bashing-om: console... yes ... ls works [22:17] How do we set Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart X? I put 'setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp' in .xinitrc, but it still isn't working. [22:17] Bashing-om: F2 thingie... [22:18] Bashing-om: my opinion is the default install when you make the choice in 13... the Blue screen. [22:19] Bashing-om: at console [22:20] ya did the step 15, installation is complete, and have rebooted into a terminal, and have now logged into the ystetem .. all yes ?? [22:21] HAH! I was just scanning it wrong! ssh WAS open! [22:21] They need DELPHI Programmer / VB / JAVA / PHP for Blackhat Hackers group of ARMAGEDDON.

Interested contact by Skype: NioCollHacker [22:26] Dracker: Please stop spamming. [22:27] Bashing-om: nope... I can quit this screen... I can take a picture of it and post it... [22:28] guest98765: Yeah, a picture might tell me something, but to be honest, I have yet to encounter a failed minimal install. [22:29] How do I configure GTK applications to read from ~/.XCompose in Trusty? [22:30] Bashing-om This is not failed...I do not think... [22:31] is there a command to show the desktop? [22:31] guest98765: I just can not imagine where you are in the install process. should be do it, wait, will complete the core install, and -> installation is complete, remove disk and reboot. [22:32] hey folks I got box with many ips 1 system ip, how I can bind server to some spare ip? [22:32] I get socket.error: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address [22:32] :D [22:32] Bashing-om: http://imagebin.org/309247 [22:33] hehe: /etc/network/interfaces [22:33] hehe: make some new eth0:1, eth0:2, etc [22:33] cool [22:33] then restart box or not needed? [22:33] no, just restart networking [22:34] guest98765: Looking at '47 . [22:34] probably service networking restart, or /etc/init.d/networking restart [22:34] ObsequiousNewt, maybe this page is any help http://askubuntu.com/questions/305706/some-entries-in-xcompose-are-ignored-how-can-i-fix-that [22:34] hehe: I jsut figured this out for myself the other day doing some new IP's for SSL cert purposes on my linux box. [22:34] cool [22:34] do I auto eth0-1 iface eth0-1 inet static ? [22:35] i did iface static [22:35] but to be honest, I don't know the difference [22:35] I also did auto [22:35] oki [22:35] OerHeks: That's oudated. I've used it in the past, but the process changed in trusty. [22:35] hi, i have a sansa fuze+, when i go to eq it doesn't go back to menu. [22:35] auto eth0:1 eth0:2, and the on the individual IPs, iface eth0:2 inet static [22:36] guest98765: Looks like the installer is awaiting an input. with the "installed packages (272)" highlighted, hit the enter key, let's see what results. [22:37] hi, i have a sansa fuze+, when i go to eq it doesn't go back to menu. [22:37] Bashing-om: I say q: quit and see what happens [22:37] Bashing-om: a small list... Admin (50) [22:38] Bashing-om: and more. [22:38] fridaynext: done, yet to show [22:38] nice [22:38] did u restart something? [22:38] :) [22:38] just networking [22:38] krt47: A sansa fuze is a music player. This is the support channel for an operating system. [22:38] guest98765: Welp, nothing lost if we have to try something else. However, the goal is to get to a completed install. [22:38] service networking restart [22:38] no need for reboot. You only need to reboot if you're running Windows :) [22:39] sorry [22:39] great thing about linux is you just reboot services. only need to reboot for kernel updates. [22:39] LOL [22:39] windows is mad [22:39] but nice [22:39] Linux is like windows but without the dows. [22:39] hehe: meh - i'm a mac / *nix guy. [22:39] how to kill these pid [22:39] 30 ? S 0:00 [rcuob/21] [22:39] 31 ? S 0:00 [rcuob/22] [22:39] Bashing-om: ok I went down to x11 and hit enter... Plymouth and xkb-data are listed. [22:40] windows is quite possibly the same, except no one bother doucmenting the service restart thing... they just do the full box out of force of habbit, and why not reboot it may cover up other bugs in windows core. [22:40] only thing i'd love to figure out some day is how to forward X to X11 on my Mac running 10.9. That would be awesome. [22:40] jamesd: true. [22:40] guest98765: HUH ?? none of that should even be installed ! .. [22:41] windows u can to cmd - then winsecret help show all [22:41] :D [22:41] the winsecret = use a mac or linux :) [22:41] or both [22:42] or hackintosh. [22:42] Bashing-om: let me see if I can get out of this screen... [22:42] 131 ? S 0:00 [rcuos/57] [22:42] 132 ? S 0:00 [rcuos/58] [22:42] 133 ? S 0:00 [rcuos/59] [22:42] 134 ?

[22:43] #/sbin/ifconfig shows 1 ip so far [22:43] Can anyone tell me what the mysql-client package adds? I've read the package description, but it's not clear what it actually provides. [22:43] hehe: need to use a colon - not a dash. so eth0:0 and eth0:1 [22:44] Giddeon: the mysql command so you can commicate with the server backend... perhaps others. [22:44] Bashing-om: ok q = quit... It said it was Aptitude so I guess I could hav installed software there. [22:44] hehe: and where you've got auto eth0 at the top, you need to put 'auto eth0 eth0:0 eth0:1' etc. [22:44] Bashing-om: installing 27 packages... [22:44] guest98765: Aptitude is good, but, my experience is with apt . [22:44] jamesd: Thank you [22:45] hehe: use eth0:0 instead of eth0:1 for the first one after eth0 [22:45] rarrr [22:45] :D [22:45] soo messy linx! [22:45] :D [22:45] well i'm glad to help, as i remember how frustrating it was figuring it out my first time. [22:46] hehe: if that doesn't work for you, i'll pastebin my working config [22:46] yes what would be good [22:46] :) [22:47] Gotdman it google better this place [22:47] Fure is kinda like Furer lol [22:48] Fure, that odd service looks like ipays - exploit? [22:48] hehe: http://pastebin.com/JLtkua2z [22:49] hi guys. I want to buy a phone that I can install ubuntu for android on. has anyone been following this at all? is there a list of u4a developer-approved android handsets? === geowany_ is now known as Geowany [22:51] !phone [22:51] Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch . Support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [22:51] daniel31: what i'd like to do is install ubuntu on a phone with verizon LTE, and then run a web server off of it and serve sites at LTE speeds. that would be awesome! [22:51] Hullo; 12.04 LTS used to have ia32-libs so I can run standard 32-bit elf applications. Seems there may not be a replacement for 14.04 - someone throw me a bone? [22:52] ubuntu touch is not ready for primetime yet as I understand it; developer builds only. I want a useable u4a phone now, which means I wont be getting ubuntu touch. you know, what last years crowdfunded phone was supposed to be. I suppose I could ask in #ubuntu-touch if that would be a better place hto.. [22:53] fridaynext: cool idea but couldnt you do this already, minus the the ubuntu-touch-ness of course.. [22:53] I guess I could. [22:53] Would be even cooler to have a CLI only phone. [22:53] but not really. :) [22:54] nearly works it shows extra ip and then when i want to bind it sayings socket.error: [Errno 98] Address already in use [22:54] lol [22:54] btw if u want to be happy never listen to parents, gf, wife [22:54] I find my mates are best at advicing [22:55] hehe: The only other thing I can think is that you need to actually have the IP address. [22:55] ubuntu way better than android [22:55] I have my host (Linode) provision the IP to me, but I don't knwo what your setup is. [22:55] I see it the IP [22:56] hehe: works? [22:56] #/sbin/ifconfig shows it [22:56] I have to see whats uses it [22:56] :d [22:56] Bashing-om: getting to the end... installing Grub [22:57] hehe: yes well of course I would snap my fingers and get an ubuntu touch phone if I could but I need a new phone just now and ubuntu touch isnt shipping yet! :-P [22:57] yes ubuntu! [22:57] and fck google [22:57] : [22:57] hehe: I love my Nexus 10. Recently got rid of my iPad mini for it. [22:57] I can imagine google stock goes down when ubuntu touch is out [22:58] they cant save all u data easily then [22:58] :D [23:00] maheanuu: So "New\040Volume", "Kens\040BU", and "Kens_BackUp2" are all labels from USB drives? [23:00] Bashing-om: rebooting... What next? [23:01] maheanuu: Please pastebin the output of "touch /media/New\040Volume/test_file" (if any). [23:01] how i can see what is using my box spare IP? [23:02] netstat -a wont do [23:02] no idea really... I thought /etc/network/interfaces took care of IP's [23:02] i need help getting my 3g Modem to work in backtrack 5 [23:02] I will pay 0.05 BTC to whoever that can get it working [23:03] Jordn_U, I get "No such file or directory" [23:03] they did fridaynext but now soft i want to use saying new ip is been used already [23:03] :D === FreezingAlt is now known as FreezingCold [23:03] 0.05 BTC not enough to get help with something this small?
