[00:01] SimonJ[Tense]: hmm [00:01] SimonJ[Tense]: bin is probably a SHAR archive [00:01] (lolredundancy) [00:02] TheFakeazneD525: Would it help if I told you it is "Revenge of the cats: Ethernet" I downloaded the Linux version before you ask. [00:02] SimonJ[Tense]: you'll want to open konsole, cd to the directory of the .bin and then run bash ./the_filename.bin [00:02] TheFakeazneD525: I'll try that, cheers! [00:02] SimonJ[Tense]: hmm, for an install I think [00:02] you should also include sudo [00:03] like, sudo bash ./the_filename.bin [00:03] if it is going to install into /usr/bin or wherever [00:06] TheFakeazneD525: I did sudo su, Trying to use "bash ~/home/simonj/Downloads/rotc-ethernet-p.5.4-linux/rotc.bin" No dice, No such directory error. I tried it without the Root squiggle too. [00:06] ah, when in root, ~/ will be the /root directory, not your home dir [00:13] Still throwing up "no such file etc". [00:15] TheFakeazneD525: Cheers for helping, I'll see if I can find other 3D games to punish my VM. === CrazyBonz__ is now known as CrazyBonz === rutt is now known as abc515 === frogonwheels_ is now known as frogonwheels === root is now known as Guest26521 === mkumar is now known as mkumar_ === mkumar_ is now known as mkumar === kevin is now known as Guest92890 === mkumar is now known as mkumar_ === mkumar_ is now known as mkumar [06:34] On a fresh 14.04 install, I have LC_* env variables set to the wrong language.

Since 14.04 came out I've been unable to upgrade my 13.10 install. Every time I run the upgrade tool I get an error message "Could not determine the upgrade - An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade." etc etc etc. [12:32] ay hints on how I might track this down and fix it [12:37] rcw2: well, you need the pepper flash since npapi is gone in chromium now [12:38] rcw2: pepperflashplugin-nonfree sorts that for you on 14.04 [12:40] hateball, it still doesn't work on some sites in FF tho [12:55] BluesKaj: That's npapi flash, in Firefox. Not Flash for chromium (which now has to be pepper) which is what rcw2 asked about [13:01] hateball, ok, chromium does work well on on most sites with pepper flash, but prefer FF due to it's configurability [13:20] i have pepper flash installed [13:21] already [13:22] so what can it be [13:24] chrome or chromium, rcw2 ? [13:25] BluesKaj, chromium [13:26] rcw2, can you give an example site where pepper doesn't work ? [13:27] kongregate.com asks me to update flash [13:28] and chessfriends.com [13:31] rcw2, what does chrome://plugins/ in the addressbar show [13:33] chromoting viewer and google talk [13:33] only [13:34] so the plugin isn't installed on chromium then [13:36] how can i remedy that [13:36] rcw2, try installing pepperflashplugin-nonfree [13:36] but it is already installed into kubuntu [13:36] can anyone tell me about this error "edd: error 8000 reeading sector ..." while booting from flash disk [13:36] install it as an extension? [13:40] so pepperflash is installed, but it didn't seem to integrate with chromium [13:40] why could that be [13:43] rcw2, open krunner, do you have this file /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree [13:46] sorry how is krunner used [13:46] once i have it running [13:46] rcw2: alt+f2 [13:46] by default [13:47] i type '/usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree' into the command line in krunner? [13:48] i'm trying to boot live from usb flash, using this image kubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso. checked md5sum. tried several times three different ways make bootable flash with it, but always get an error list of this type "edd: error 8000 reading sector ..." while booting, plz explain me what am i doing wrong [13:48] rcw2,yes [13:49] it shows two files [13:49] pubkey-google.txt [13:49] is one [13:50] vndtta, is this a fairly new pc/laptop, less the 3yrs old? [13:50] yes [13:50] pc is about 1.5 years old [13:50] Всем привет! [13:51] rcw2, but is pepperflashplugin-nonfree there? [13:51] Нужна помощь! [13:51] Как установить флеш плеер?

It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [13:52] BluesKaj, i see /usr/lib/pepperflash-nonfree then two files inside that dir [13:53] rcw2, is there libpepflashplayer.so ?

[13:54] oops [13:54] not inside /usr/lib/pepperflash-nonfree dir no [13:54] should i download it and move it there? [13:59] rcw2, reinstall it , you might have installed it before you installed chromium [14:00] rcw2, reinstall pepperflashplugin-nonfree [14:01] the package is supposed to add those lines in the text file to the chromium-browser launcher script [14:03] hateball, I've heard of this problem before, obviously the plugin doesn't always add the lines [14:04] ok , gotta do some errands ..bbl [14:05] ok, it didn't add the lines again, perhaps [14:05] after reinstalling [14:06] bug report? [14:08] rcw2: you can copy it manually to /etc/chromium-browser/default [14:08] but yeah, bug reporting doesnt hurt [14:08] the so file? [14:08] if my pc is using EFI boot, and grub instlled on flash drive is of efi version [14:09] what else could be problem [14:09] rcw2: nah. it should look like so http://paste.ubuntu.com/7467958/ [14:09] rcw2: the default file that is [14:10] rcw2: the package should push that from /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/etc-chromium-default.txt but I guess it didnt in your case [14:12] what do i copy to /etc/chromium-browser/default [14:16] rcw2: the text I linked you [14:17] rcw2: open it with text editor of choice [14:17] exactly that? [14:17] rcw2: assuming you've not added any other options yourself [14:17] options where? [14:18] the... chromium_flags [14:18] actually I see I have some legacy from an old installer in my config [14:18] what should i call the file [14:18] anyhow. the contents of /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/etc-chromium-default.txt is what should go in /etc/chromium-browser/default [14:22] /etc/chromium-browser/default.txt ? [14:22] i dont have a directory /etc/chromium-browser/default/ [14:23] It's a file [14:23] ok what i have now is /etc/chromium-browser/default.txt with the contents of the lines you pasted inside default.txt is this correct? [14:24] rcw2: No. It's /etc/chromium-browser/default not /etc/chromium-browser/default.txt [14:29] hi, has anyone else noticed that file-choosing dialogs differ in whether it' single or double click to open a folder? [14:31] It's different each time, sometimes single click goes into the folder, sometimes it just selects it. I don't understand what causes that. I'd like to have single click open folders always [14:32] after that change to default i see '/usr/bin/chromium-browser: 6: .: Can't open /usr/lib/pepflashplugin-installer/pepflashplayer.sh' [14:33] rcw2: no that's because you used my paste which had some old shit in it. Just use /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/etc-chromium-default.txt instead [14:34] rcw2: easiest is probably: "sudo rm /etc/chromium-browser/default && sudo cp /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/etc-chromium-default.txt /etc/chromium-browser/default" [14:35] contents of /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/etc-chromium-default.txt is in /etc/chromium-browser/default now, but the plugin doesnt show still in chromium [14:35] rcw2: did you restart the browser [14:35] yes [14:37] rcw2: what if you launch it like so: "chromium-browser --ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/libpepflashplayer.so" [14:37] bennypr0fane, system settings>input devices>mouse>choose "single click to open files and folders" [14:38] quick bash question please. how do i go from sudo to a user [14:38] rcw2: exit [14:38] rcw2: or su [14:39] exit exits the terminal program [14:39] if you're in a root session it should return to the user that started it [14:39] I assumed that was what you meant [14:39] Running something with sudo does exactly that, runs it. Once. [14:40] i have it setup to start as root [14:40] not a user [14:40] well, running that command didn't load the plugin [14:40] very well, then what bennypr0fane [14:40] said [14:40] ugh [14:40] I'd just purge the pepperflash and chromium-browser packages and start anew [14:41] BluesKaj: if it's just a matter of changing this global setting, then why do some apps already behave the way i want [14:41] ? [14:41] can i download chrome [14:41] I think google has debs you can just install [14:41] someone asked me which of the two i was running. so i can install chrome? [14:42] not sure if chrome is in partner repos [14:42] bennypr0fane, good question, but I don't know why that behaviour persists === DeadS0ul is now known as spawn57 [14:43] chrome won't help [14:43] BluesKaj: maybe bcs i already have this setting in place. then the question truns into why don't all the apps behave that way? [14:44] bennypr0fane: Are you using GTK apps maybe [14:44] note that I'm talking about the file choosing dialogs, not what Dolphin does. e.g. in any app, when you go file>open, and then a dialog comes up [14:44] bennypr0fane, so you already had the single click setting enabled before this problem showed up ? [14:44] BluesKaj: is the behavior consistent for all apps on yr system? [14:45] bennypr0fane, yes [14:45] BluesKaj: yes, I did. Technically, the problem never "showed up", it was always there from installation [14:47] have you never seen different apps bring up file-choosing dialogs(FCDs) that looked entirely different from the usual system layout, like generated by some other window manager? [14:47] bennypr0fane: Are you using GTK apps maybe [14:48] but for me even the ones that look completely normal don't all behave the same [14:48] bennypr0fane, hateballh [14:48] hateball: maybe. How can I tell if an app is gtk? [14:48] bennypr0fane: well, give us the name :p [14:48] has a point about gtk [14:49] KDE has ways to skin and change fonts for GTK apps so it looks "native" but it wont change the mouse behavior [14:50] hm, so you're also syaing, all kde apps should exhibit the single-click-to-open behavior if that's how I choose it in my settings, yes? [14:51] yes [14:52] or in other words that behavior is governed by whether it's kde ot not? what if it's neither kde nor gtk? e.g. Xfcburn [14:53] Xfce uses GTK for most things, you sure xfcburn doesnt? [14:53] anyhow, you can tell quite easy [14:53] ldd /usr/bin/gimp|grep gtk [14:53] libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 (0x00007fa06027e000) [14:53] hateball: no, that was just of the top of my head [14:53] just check whatever app that troubles you with ldd [14:53] hateball: um, waht? [14:54] ldd shows that gimp depends on gtk libs [14:54] ok [14:54] dependencies, yes? [14:54] e.g. [14:54] chrome is running with Adobe Flash Player (2 files) - Version: 13.0.0.214 but should i see pepper somewhere? [14:55] as in, if you don't have GTK it wont run. Which means it uses GTK. Which means the mouse behavior wont be like in KDE [14:55] rcw2: No, it *should* say Adobe Flash [14:55] clementine is not a standard KDE app, but it behaves the way I want [14:55] clementine uses qt iirc [14:55] wheres a good place to submit a bug report if i wanted to [14:55] hateball: yes it does [14:55] for chromium [14:55] Should say Qt instead of KDE in this case I suppose [14:55] !launchpad | rcw2 [14:55] rcw2: Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [14:56] bennypr0fane, so which desktop is default on your system? [14:56] KDE [14:56] all standard KDE apps are Qt? [14:56] anyhow, you can change GTK behavior using gconf iirc, but I dont recall what values etc. It is surely googlable [14:56] bennypr0fane: Yes [14:57] Note that KDE != Kubuntu [14:57] Firefox for instance is not Qt [14:57] appears to me like you have a mismash of apps from different desktops [14:57] bennypr0fane,^ [14:59] BluesKaj: probably, but don't you? I mean it's very likely to have some "foreign" apps in the mix for anyone, once you start customizing yr system adding software [15:00] bingo, Firefox doesn't do it the way I want it [15:00] bennypr0fane, no i prefer a fairly consistent KDE content [15:01] except for firefox [15:02] I would too, actually, but there are things I can't find a kde app for [15:03] but it's good to know that any qt app will fit in [15:03] now for my other browser, can anyone tell me why firefox seems to make xorg use nearly half of my processing power, which is odd [15:04] and it'S kind of a bummer other apps won't fit in. there should be a way to make them, i.e. force them all to use the default window manager for these things. I hate it when my shortcuts are gone and I ahve to sift through a whole tree in search for stuff on the windows partition [15:05] ...using double clicks all the way! [15:06] rcw2, how many tabs do you have open? [15:07] well that time many [15:07] 10+ [15:07] but chromium can do that [15:09] and my firefox could once do that versions ago [15:17] rcw2, probly depends on many things , but I suspect the flash content on many sites constantly loading ads etc is part of it. [15:18] BluesKaj, yeah flash stuff seems to trigger it. [15:20] but this is a new issue with the same processor [15:36] Having trouble making bootable usb stick for 14.04. Startup Disk Creator keeps giving me an error fault 5. I used unetbootin and it seems to have created the usb, but it boots directly to grub> prompt [15:47] should sudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/70debconf. have that period at the end of 70debconf.
