| Keba | In XFCE after pluggin in an external drive an icon is added to my desktop. After double clicking that icon, the drive is mounted at /media/$name. How to mount this drive in a terminal instead of double-clicking? | 00:11 |
| Keba | one obvious way would be to add the drive to my fstab, but that does not work for the "usb drive a friend just gave me" scenario | 00:13 |
| Chaser | Keba: do a dmesg and look for the block device name (like sdb1, sdc1 etc) and then mkdir -p /tmp/disk; sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /tmp/disk | 00:14 |
| Chaser | or you already knew that :D | 00:15 |

| R0b0t1 | Hello, my sound is not working. Anything to try? | 00:21 |
| matt45785633 | is anyone an expert with partitioning? | 00:21 |
| R0b0t1 | ... sure. What is it? | 00:21 |
| R0b0t1 | Don't ask to ask a question, by the way. | 00:21 |
| matt45785633 | i got a non-existing raid | 00:21 |
| matt45785633 | 2 1000gb partitions on a 500gb disk | 00:21 |
| R0b0t1 | Okay so now this is RAID, not partitioning, but keep going... | 00:21 |
| R0b0t1 | Ehm? | 00:21 |
| matt45785633 | when i try to delete them it says cant delete partition outside the disk | 00:22 |

| matt45785633 | nope | 00:22 |
| drfoo | yes thanks Chasrer; | 00:22 |

| R0b0t1 | Do you know them? | 00:25 |
| matt45785633 | 1 sec | 00:25 |
| R0b0t1 | If you can find them then that's the last thing to do - double check they are absolutely correct. | 00:25 |
| R0b0t1 | If you do what I say, note you will have to recreate the array. | 00:26 |

| rose | I am having a bit of a problem. I am on an Hp notebook 2000 and I am tryying to install an AMD file from the site since the flgrx-updates doesn't fix the graphical problems. problem is its a .run file. Told ubuntu to read it as an excuteable and it freezes up. please help | 00:45 |
| Chaser | drfoo: sorry I don't know why it wouldn't generate the 70-persistent-net.rules. The reason it may skip it is if the mac address is being ignored (see /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules). For example it ignores virtual interfaces etc. | 00:45 |

| daftykins | skjones: pretty sure you can't install ubuntu on a browser...? | 01:25 |
| wilhelm1 | Yelu: Using Ubuntu and a custom iptables rules file and I found the firewall wide open as if iptables-restore had not run. | 01:25 |
| Yelu | wilhelm1, you already found the root cause for this? | 01:26 |
| skjones | daftykins, running chromium on 14.04 and icedtea doesn't work any longer? | 01:27 |
| daftykins | skjones: doesn't work for what? | 01:28 |
| Yelu | wilhelm1, sorry I mis-read your line | 01:28 |
| skjones | daftykins, running java type content on websites | 01:28 |
| BabyGodzillaIV | I FIND FAT PEOPLE TO BE RATHER FAT............. | 01:28 |
| wilhelm1 | Yelu: what is the extra "Hello World" for, is this line to be placed in the script itself or the line running the script? | 01:29 |
| Yelu | wilhelm1, this "<text>" will be logged into syslog | 01:29 |
| Yelu | wilhelm1, it is just a one-liner in your script (rc.local et al.) | 01:30 |
| daftykins | skjones: do you see icedtea listed in the plugins/extensions of chromium? | 01:31 |
| wilhelm1 | Yelu: RE: "you already found the root cause for this?" , unsure as of yet the iptables-restore may not have run , the files are in place. | 01:31 |
| Yelu | wilhelm1, this is strange, indeed | 01:32 |
| skjones | daftykins, no, but it installed and works in firefox. wondering if the news chromium went to aura had an effect on icedtea? | 01:32 |
| wilhelm1 | Yelu: The security policy here requires blocking https. | 01:33 |
| geovane | Legal este chat em! | 01:33 |
| daftykins | skjones: i don't know anything about chromium or what aura is, but perhaps you're lacking symlinked plugins | 01:35 |
| daftykins | skjones: in the grand scheme though, i am never surprised that a non-official oracle java has issues | 01:35 |
| elfMobile | is there a reason I can't log in as root over ssh with a password? | 01:36 |
| wilhelm1 | Yelu: Due to the security policy blocking https the previous https help link is not allowed. Is Yelu helpful enough to send the file? | 01:37 |
| somsip | elfMobile: maybe disabled in /etc/sshd.conf. Like NoRootLoginALlowed true | 01:37 |
| Yelu | wilhelm1, I'm not very savvy with iptables and your security policies, but is there a chance just to activate ufw and add a rule like "sudo add deny in from any port 80" (or deny out ... to any ...)?) | 01:37 |
| daftykins | elfMobile: you can't login as root at all with ubuntu | 01:38 |
| Yelu | wilhelm1, service delivery ongoing in your direction, 1 sec, pls. | 01:38 |
| somsip | elfMobile: actually. /etc/ssh/sshd_config PermitRootLogin no | 01:38 |
| daftykins | elfMobile: if you've set a password for root, then you're breaking the entire purpose of running ubuntu | 01:38 |

| ubottu | scp is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/ | 01:50 |
| JimJon476 | tried to ssh and ftp to no avail thought I could access a shared usb device and copy | 01:50 |
| holstein | JimJon476: assuming they are on a bridged network | 01:50 |
| holstein | JimJon476: if you cant ping the machine, you wont "share" anything over your network like that | 01:50 |
| JimJon476 | holstein: Thank you | 01:51 |
| holstein | JimJon476: get the machines networked on your main network, both with an IP from your router (if thats acceptable).. and use ssh | 01:51 |
| JimJon476 | ubottu: Thank you | 01:52 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 01:52 |
| holstein | JimJon476: you use scp via ssh | 01:52 |
| JimJon476 | is scp on osx? | 01:52 |
| night0w1 | yes | 01:52 |
| holstein | JimJon476: you can use the terminal from osx to do the same | 01:53 |

| kcj | Ben64: http://i.imgur.com/CIqLGt8.png | 02:26 |
| Ben64 | kcj: ooh, ok... hit "write all metamodes", output to some temporary file and take out modes you won't need, then finally use that as the real xorg.conf | 02:27 |
| cusoma | how to use this? | 02:31 |
| kcj | Ben64: is there anyway I could just break it up over a few lines? | 02:32 |
| Polm | Hi, I'm having some issues with my network card after upgrading to 14.04. I always seem to get corrupted downloads with large files, details on the card are in this post (not by me, but the network issue is the same, please ignore the graphics one while responding to me) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2220960 . Is there anything I could do? | 02:32 |
| maestrojed | I typically VNC to my ubuntu box. Its been a while but I think I use Ubuntu's built in "screen sharing" options as the server software. I recently removed the connected monitor planning on only using vnc. Now the vnc won't connect "Connection Refused". Any suggestions? FYI I can ssh to the box. | 02:37 |
| === karstensrage_ is now known as karstensrage | ||
| maestrojed | I see others asking the same question but no solution online so I guess this is a thing... | 02:40 |
| whoever | maestrojed: what is the question | 02:43 |
| maestrojed | whoever connecting to remote desktop (vmc) when a monitor is not connected (headless). | 02:43 |
| daftykins | maestrojed: X could fail to start and configure properly without a monitor to sync up with, preventing VNC... what happens if you plug a monitor in after boot? | 02:44 |
| whoever | maestrojed: it will capture what is on the server screen , if it is headless there is nothing to capture | 02:44 |
| maestrojed | daftykins :) I don't have one available at the moment. | 02:44 |
| maestrojed | whoever yeah. I was not expecting that | 02:45 |
| whoever | maestrojed: then you need to ssh in, what prob are you trying to solve | 02:45 |
| maestrojed | yeah, I can ssh no prob. | 02:45 |
| whoever | maestrojed: hince, you cannot startx on a headless box | 02:46 |
| maestrojed | Seldom do I need the GUI, but I needed to access a program real quick. | 02:46 |
| maestrojed | gotcha | 02:46 |
| maestrojed | thanks, I will deal :) | 02:46 |
| daftykins | you don't have X starting auto at boot? | 02:46 |
| whoever | so what where/are you tring to do | 02:47 |
| minimec | maestrojed: Can you 'ssh -X'. You could then launch the program remotely, if the server is running. 'ssh <server> -X' | 02:47 |
| maestrojed | well. :) I was going to play music via Google Play. Then I was going to install mine craft server. | 02:47 |
| whoever | minimec: but there isn't a head so x would fail | 02:47 |
| maestrojed | I can still install mine craft I imagine. | 02:47 |
| maestrojed | Going to google that now | 02:47 |
| whoever | maestrojed: ssh and access and pull data that way | 02:48 |
| minimec | whoever: That's what we try to see, right? | 02:48 |
| whoever | you don't need a gui | 02:48 |
| apb1963 | I need to get some pix off an old phone... any ideas how to do that? ubuntu 12.04 | 02:48 |
| apb1963 | It's to a usb port | 02:48 |
| whoever | apb1963: the phone has usb right ? | 02:48 |
| apb1963 | whoever: yes | 02:49 |
| maestrojed | minimec what does the "-X" attribute do? I tried it, looks like I shelled in as normal. | 02:49 |
| apb1963 | whoever: it shows up with lsusb | 02:49 |
| whoever | apb1963: then hook the phone up and ubuntu will detect it, and you access it that way | 02:49 |
| Guest71153 | how do you get flash working in #ubuntu ? | 02:49 |
| Guest71153 | 12.04 lts | 02:49 |
| maestrojed | I have no idea how to control graphical programs via a command line (ssh). Though I am very interested to learn :) | 02:49 |
| whoever | APLU: then find out what device it is and mount it | 02:49 |
| minimec | maestrojed: Ok. Now try to launch 'gnome-terminal'. If you are lucky, you get a terminal from the remote computer. | 02:50 |
| apb1963 | sorry,,, irc client crashed... again. | 02:50 |
| xangua | Guest71153: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-adobe | 02:50 |
| apb1963 | whoever: so the hardware is recognized... but... how do I actually access the phone? | 02:50 |
| whoever | gyaresu: flash plug-in | 02:50 |
| maestrojed | minimec I shell into the ubuntu box and then run 'gnome-terminal' in that shell (on the ubuntu box)? | 02:50 |
| Guest71153 | xangua, not a valid package | 02:51 |
| whoever | apb1963: does it have an sd card | 02:51 |
| xangua | Guest71153: sorry, it's adobe-flashplugin | 02:51 |
| apb1963 | whoever: no... it's an OLD phone... | 02:51 |
| whoever | apb1963: can you connect to wifi from it | 02:51 |
| apb1963 | whoever: samsung sch-360 | 02:52 |
| maestrojed | minimec running 'gnome-terminal' on the ubuntu shell returns an error https://www.refheap.com/85709 | 02:52 |
| minimec | maestrojed: exactly. You 'ssh <server> -X' from a running xsession to the other computer, and try to run 'gnome-terminal' | 02:52 |
| apb1963 | whoever: OLD. I don't think wifi existed back then . lol | 02:52 |
| Beldar | apb1963, is this an android phone, and what release of it? | 02:53 |
| minimec | maestrojed: ok. You are "headless". Can you 'sudo service lightdm start' ? | 02:53 |
| Chayce | Hi, I am ssh with a a server and installation is going on ubuntu 14.04 server. It is going to take a long time for the installation process, and before the installation completes...the terminal ends saying broken pipe. How do I stop terminal to deactivate before its installation completes. It is something related with screen command. | 02:53 |
| apb1963 | Beldar: android definitely did not exist back then. | 02:53 |
| maestrojed | minimec ightdm start/running, process 2059 | 02:54 |
| BlackWeb | Is anyone here familiar with HP Printers? | 02:54 |
| Beldar | apb1963, Fpr 12.04 you need a ppa to access android, however the release matters, I will get you the link. | 02:54 |

| whoever | apb1963: ya thats why i suggested it | 03:03 |
| hikaruBG | I have no problem running it on my Vaio Laptop | 03:03 |
| minimec | maestrojed: So in that case you should have a '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' on the remote machine with the nvidia configuration. if you 'sudo mv /etv/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.back' and 'sudo reboot' it would then probably fallback to the 'nouveau' driver. But I am not sure if that solves your problem. It's worth a try... You can always 'mv' the config back to its place to get the original state back. | 03:03 |

| hikaruBG | same thing! :( | 03:12 |
| holstein | ndy: yes | 03:12 |
| holstein | ndy: clonezilla is a nice easy way to create those | 03:13 |

| hikaruBG | before the message I have posted | 03:15 |
| hikaruBG | let me research that | 03:15 |
| ndy | holstein :) actually i messed up with my output sound before it was workin well my ubuntu was functioning well but i messed up | 03:16 |
| maestrojed | minimec no, :). switched gears. Installing minecraft server. :). Trying to figure out "screens" cause it was recommended | 03:16 |
| maestrojed | "screen" not plural | 03:16 |
| minimec | maestrojed: ok. | 03:16 |
| ndy | whoever clonezilla clones our whole os ? | 03:16 |
| hikaruBG | Be right back guys... | 03:17 |
| psusi | ndy, or rather than back up everything that can be reinstalled with clonezilla, you can just backup your home directory, which covers your files and settings, maybe /etc for any system settings, and dpkg --get-selections will dump a list of all packages you have installed, so you can use dpkg --set-selections to reinstall them all later | 03:17 |
| psusi | saves a lot of disk space that way | 03:17 |
| sisterFister | so how might I go about executing gcolor2 with a shell script and then getting the selected color into a variable in that shell script? | 03:18 |

| holstein | ndy: sure.. just dont bother with that.. just keep a copy of your data, and be ready to reinstall.. or fix issues with commands that you'll learn | 03:26 |
| psusi | holstein, or use raid ;) | 03:26 |
| whoever | ndy: to clone or restore you probably want to use clonezilla se... simuler to norton ghost | 03:26 |
| * psusi picked up 3 1tb wd blue drives at xmas for a mere $70 each ( think they are only $60 each now ) and built himself a nice fast raid10 that can handle any one drive failing and has the speed of 3 drives | 03:27 | |

| BlackWeb | HP Printer is set to Default | 03:47 |
| holstein | BlackWeb: i have had to work with work arounds like that, with products that dont support linux | 03:48 |
| BlackWeb | On other releases 10.10 everytime my system booted up, The printer would spool - 14.04 nothing | 03:48 |
| holstein | BlackWeb: you said, 12.04? | 03:48 |
| holstein | you can always look back at 10.10 and see what was going on in there | 03:49 |
| BlackWeb | I upgrade from 12.04 hoping that 14.04 would fix current problem, But ever since I left 10.10 I've had this problem, So like 2yrs now | 03:49 |
| holstein | BlackWeb: sure, have you looked at 10.10 to see what is facilitating the support? i can gurantee you, there was no ubuntu meeting where it was decided that your hardware should not work properly | 03:51 |
| BlackWeb | Maybe different HPLIP versions is all I can think of | 03:52 |
| apb1963 | ok... so my phone has bluetooth... how can I access it over bluetooth? I know zero about blue teeth. I met a guy from TX once that had green teeth (nasty), but that doesn't help obviously. | 03:52 |
| Beldar | BlackWeb, I had a HP printer that had a model with the same except for like later releases, and the ubuntu drivers that actually were for the printer did not work but the later did. Same basic name, but a additional letter....etc. | 03:53 |
| holstein | BlackWeb: try them, though, some could have requirements that make the older version that provided your support not work with a more recent kernel | 03:53 |

| kcj | lotuspsychje: This isn't a very old install. | 04:04 |
| Seven_Six_Two | kcj, or don't have any metamodes, and add them as needed. | 04:04 |

| gu3rr3r0 | quit | 04:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | kcj, Do you have programs that change your modes? | 04:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | kcj, in my experience there aren't very many. Some games, but if you set it to native resolution you should be fine. | 04:10 |
| kcj | Not at the moment. Truncated it to only the modes neded. | 04:11 |
| kcj | Going to do a restart and hopefully it'll work and xorg won't catch fire. | 04:11 |

| c4rt3r | there is specialised distros RubixRex | 05:01 |
| c4rt3r | but the more lightweight the better obviously so maybe lubuntu | 05:01 |
| c4rt3r | if you want ubuntu ofcourse | 05:01 |
| RubixRex | yeah i do | 05:02 |
| RubixRex | i have a 32bit version of win 8.1, but i have 8gb of ram i want to utilize | 05:02 |
| trijntje | RubixRex: you can use both 64 and 32 bit ubuntu, 64 is probably better on a new system. However, you dont need much RAM to mine coins anyway | 05:03 |
| rww | bitcoin mining isn't RAM bound, it's GPU bound, so that probably isn't going to get you anything | 05:03 |

All other devices connected to the same network are able to browse without issue, but this Ubuntu machine is unable to do so. nslookup and ping both fail, in addition to browsing on Mozilla.

| Typhoon_ | randomlinux - resolv.conf has nameserver 127.0.0.1 | 05:37 |
| randomlinux | try adding google's resolvers | 05:37 |
| randomlinux | and comment outt the localhost one | 05:38 |
| Typhoon_ | yeah, was going to do that.. | 05:38 |
| Typhoon_ | so that would be | 05:38 |
| Typhoon_ | nameserver 8.8.8.8 ? | 05:38 |
| randomlinux | yea 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 | 05:38 |
| Typhoon_ | randomlinux - It opens as read only. I did sudo chmod +rw resolv.conf | 05:41 |
| Typhoon_ | but still doesn't let me save to the file | 05:41 |
| randomlinux | odd. it should let you. try doing chmod 755 resolv.conf | 05:41 |
| randomlinux | it shouldn't matter | 05:41 |
| Typhoon_ | randomlinux - (not to mention the fact that there's a line that say "DO NOT EDIT BY HAND" lol | 05:41 |
| randomlinux | but it's worth a shot | 05:42 |
| randomlinux | yea, normally you do it in network manager | 05:42 |
| randomlinux | but i figured that'd be an easy way to test first | 05:42 |
| randomlinux | network manager will overwrite it when it restarts if you edit it manually | 05:42 |

| randomlinux | energizer: I don't see anything that looks like that in the usb device list. Are you sure it was found when you plugged it in? | 05:57 |
| Ben64 | Typhoon_: because you don't have permissions to edit that file. why are you trying to edit it? didn't you notice the "DO NOT EDIT" part? | 05:57 |
| randomlinux | Typhoon_: do you use ssh or the gui? | 05:58 |
| Typhoon_ | randomlinux - the Gui. | 05:58 |
| randomlinux | i'd use ssh | 05:58 |
| randomlinux | then you can make sure it works, then set it up in the network manager if it does | 05:58 |
| Typhoon_ | randomlinux - ok.. how do I do that? | 05:58 |
| randomlinux | open terminal under your apps | 05:58 |
| randomlinux | then type sudo su to become root | 05:59 |
| Ben64 | do not type that ^ | 05:59 |
| randomlinux | or | 05:59 |

| Ben64 | "sudo -i" if you absolutely need a root shell, which in almost every case you don't need | 06:00 |

| Ben64 | Typhoon_: yeah, makes sense | 06:07 |

| Typhoon_ | I'm not sure, but I think I won't be allowed to even connect to 8.8.8.8 until that's done. | 06:11 |
| Typhoon_ | I guess I could add the login page into the resolv.conf file as well.. | 06:12 |
| randomlinux | you may want to try leaving theirs as the first nameserver and google as the 2nd and 3rd | 06:12 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) was the 19th release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.10 - Read the release notes at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucySalamander/ReleaseNotes | 07:31 |
| rww | hrm, I should add that date | 07:32 |
| roninn | is there a way to avoid writing grep x */*/*/ | 07:32 |
| abak | so basically i should go an update? | 07:32 |
| Beldar | abak, I would before the eol if you want support is all, and updated security. | 07:33 |
| rww | (EOL is in July) | 07:33 |
| abak | ok let's go then | 07:33 |
| gipzo | Could somebody help me with my problem? I have remote linux server and it has practically no free memory (i suppose something is leaking). When I try to connect via ssh it show me something like "-bash: fork: cannot allocate memory" | 07:33 |
| rww | abak: Once you get to trusty, I'd recommend sticking with the LTS cycle (trusty/14.04 is LTS), which is every two years and supported for fie years. | 07:34 |
| rww | five ** | 07:34 |
| geirha | roninn: why do you want to avoid that? | 07:34 |
| abak | is there an advanced mode for upgrading | 07:34 |
| gipzo | But now I connected somehow, but shell is -bash-4.2$ | 07:34 |
| abak | e.g. no messing with my kernel? | 07:34 |
| gipzo | I trying to "reboot now" but it says -bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory. What the smallest command to reboot system? | 07:34 |
| Beldar | abak, This a compile or what? | 07:35 |
| abak | oh fuck | 07:36 |
| Beldar | sigh | 07:36 |
| abak | apparently, the upgrade cant be applied | 07:36 |
| abak | i get an error message | 07:36 |

| AlexPortable | dmiller309_: is it also possible to get rid of ctrl? | 07:41 |
| dmiller309_ | BlackWeb: I don't know, but you could open Synaptic, look under "installed files", and look for one of the commands in the path (it has "bin" in it). | 07:41 |

| abak | Why is it impossible to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 if i have unofficial packages, not provided by ubuntu? | 07:43 |
| owh | abak: That would be because they likely depend on versions of things that are going to be uninstalled and because they themselves don't have an upgrade path. Likely your best bet is to uninstall the unofficial packages, upgrade and then install them. Note that this is not a supported activity. | 07:45 |
| === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away | ||
| abak | owh, is there a fast an easy way to get the list of unofficial packages on my machine? | 07:45 |
| dmiller309_ | abak: Can't you just filter by source in Synaptic? | 07:46 |

| dmiller309_ | I wrote an application on 13.04/13.10 that used the org.gnome.ScreenSaver ActiveChanged signal, but I've noticed that it's not being emitted in 14.04 when I lock the screen. Is there a new way (D-Bus)to know if the screensaver state has changed? | 07:51 |
| dmiller309_ | The org.gnome.ScreenSaver SetActive method does lock the screen and causes the ActiveChanged signal to be emitted, but using Super+L doesn't cause the signal to be emitted. | 07:52 |
| dmiller309_ | Sorry, I figured it out. | 07:57 |
| BlackWeb | HPLIP wont Recognize Printer unless I Unplug it EVERY time I Boot | 07:59 |
| BlackWeb | good god | 07:59 |
| dmiller309_ | Looks like the new method is on the service com.canonical.Unity, com/canonical/Unity/Session/, com.canonical.Unity.Session signal Locked. | 07:59 |

| BlackWeb | Has anyone ever had any luck with HPLIP | 07:59 |
| abak | owh, would it be enough to disable the ppas, or should i remove the packages also? Alternatively, does it make any difference if i use a proper install dvd ? | 08:00 |
| dmiller309_ | BlackWeb never used it. I always check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters before purchasing a printer. | 08:01 |

| owh | abak: Did you only install packages using PPAs? | 08:03 |
| abak | owh, nope, | 08:04 |
| owh | abak: So you installed stuff from source, from .debs, from official locations and from PPAs? | 08:04 |
| abak | owh that's about it | 08:05 |
| owh | abak: That's a big hole you dug yourself into. | 08:05 |
| geirha | murosai: because you need to run jar -tf onefile.jar | 08:05 |
| abak | well, that's one way of putting it, I need to install some of the stuff i develop, and not everything is supported by ubuntu | 08:06 |
| geirha | murosai: one file as opposed to many files. anyway, don't use xargs. find . -name "*.war -exec jar -tf {} \; | 08:06 |
| owh | abak: Did you make everything into .deb files before you installed them? | 08:06 |
| murosai | okay now it works with find . -iname "*.war" | xargs -n 1 jar -tf | grep main | 08:06 |
| geirha | *sigh* | 08:06 |
| murosai | but how could i also know the file the grep belongs to? | 08:06 |
| abak | owh, nope, | 08:07 |
| murosai | geirha: why the sigh? | 08:07 |
| murosai | something wrong with xargs? | 08:07 |
| dmiller309_ | abak: I periodically nuke Ubuntu for the same reason, so I keep my /home in a separate partition and use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.softwarebakery.drivedroid to reinstall. | 08:07 |
| abak | is there a way for do-release-upgrade to tell me what are the packages/ppas that he doesnt like? | 08:07 |
| abak | dmiller309_, me too, but there are things outside /home i'd like to keep | 08:08 |
| owh | abak: Not sure. Let me have a look. | 08:08 |
| geirha | yes, xargs is broken by design. Anyway, getting the archive name in there is a bit more tricky. | 08:08 |

| ipg | Hello | 08:20 |
| ipg | Is quagga in ubuntu's package enable snmp ? | 08:20 |
| stevenm | When on apt-get you get... "The following packages cannot be authenticated!" - Can you somehow ask apt which keys it thinks are missing? | 08:21 |
| ServerSage | stevenm: Have you tried updating the keys? "sudo apt-key update" | 08:22 |
| stevenm | ServerSage, yup no effect - i know i'm missing the key but I want to know which one | 08:22 |
| stevenm | ServerSage, i think the packages are signed with a different key to the repo - so apt-get update works... but apt-get install doesn't | 08:23 |
| ServerSage | Usually apt-get update will tell you if any repos have bad keys though. | 08:23 |
| stevenm | ServerSage, again - it's not the repo, it's the packages | 08:23 |
| ServerSage | It's been a while since I saw this error, but if I'm not mistaken it lists the packages right after the error, correct? If so, what packages? | 08:25 |
| stevenm | i'll take that as - you don't know how to do what I'm asking | 08:25 |
| pocata | drowning ask ATT to new ubuntu but I want to go back and menu CLASSIC what was written in the terminal | 08:26 |
| ServerSage | I'll take that as you don't want help. *shrug* It's not going to say "The following packages..." without listing packages. | 08:26 |
| stevenm | the names of the packages are irrelevant | 08:26 |
| pocata | ? | 08:26 |
| pocata | you ask with ATT new ubuntu but I want to go back and menu CLASSIC what was written in the terminal :) | 08:27 |
| ServerSage | stevenm: Run an apt-get clean ; apt-get update and you should probably be set. But, I don't know what I'm doing. I'm ignorant. | 08:29 |
| rahul___ | shubh, hii | 08:29 |
| stevenm | yes, yes you are. | 08:29 |
| ServerSage | :P | 08:29 |
| ServerSage | Try it. | 08:30 |
| pocata | ServerSage: help me pls | 08:30 |
| ServerSage | pocata: I'm not sure what you are asking. | 08:31 |
| strigga | Morning. I have an issue with a file I cannot read. The files permissions/user/group/size/date are displayed as ????? - any idea how to handle this? I checked a couple of forums and outting the directory to +x did not do the trick | 08:31 |
| strigga | outting=setting | 08:31 |
| ServerSage | stevenm: I'm sure you have run apt-key list and didn't seen anything. You can reinstall the keyrings, that will often solve it. Or you can try what I suggested, which will fix it. | 08:32 |
| ServerSage | stevenm: Or, you can ignore me, which is also fine. | 08:32 |
| pocata | I want to get back classic menu on ubuntu | 08:32 |

| stevenm | ServerSage, you have ignored the question, so I ignore your irrelevant answers | 08:33 |
| makara | pocata: google classic-menuindicator | 08:33 |
| ServerSage | stevenm: Sounds good. | 08:33 |
| makara | strigga, can you open a terminal and navigate to the folder | 08:33 |
| strigga | makara: Yes, I'm right there. | 08:34 |
| strigga | makara: -????????? ? ? ? ? ? .csync_journal.db-journal | 08:34 |
| makara | ls -al | 08:34 |
| ServerSage | strigga: Have you tried changing the owner of the file? Does it allow it? | 08:34 |
| ServerSage | strigga: Woah, never mind. That is pretty funky. | 08:34 |
| makara | strigga, make a copy of the file, rename is something short and decent | 08:34 |
| strigga | ServerSage: mmh depends on the point of view :P | 08:35 |
| ServerSage | strigga: Have you run an fsck on the drive? | 08:35 |
| geirha | strigga: you should run fsck on that filesystem | 08:35 |

| ServerSage | strigga: That's a pretty good indicator that the drive is fubar. :) fsck it | 08:36 |
| makara | strigga, what geirhar said, the fs is prob corrupt | 08:36 |
| ServerSage | strigga: And cross your fingers. | 08:36 |

| strigga | Thanks for now | 08:36 |
| ServerSage | RustyShackleford: Do you mean UEFI? | 08:36 |
| RustyShackleford | yeah i guess thats it | 08:37 |
| RustyShackleford | a year ago, the advice was to turn off UEFI | 08:37 |
| ServerSage | RustyShackleford: GRUB2 knows all about UEFI, don't think ubuntu uses it. But, it should work fine with GRUB2. | 08:38 |

| lotherk | is it just me or is syslog-ng install in ubuntu 14.04 broken? | 08:44 |
| lotherk | if so, is there any reason? | 08:44 |
| RustyShackleford | do most of you use Unity? Or do you install something else? | 08:44 |
| t16h | < kubuntu | 08:45 |
| RustyShackleford | personally I don't hate unity that much | 08:45 |
| jlmarks | I don't hate Unity, but I am loving playing with i3 | 08:45 |
| lotherk | I hate ubuntu 14.0.4 | 08:45 |
| lotherk | 14.04. | 08:45 |
| t16h | will maybe use unity when it's more polished | 08:45 |
| ServerSage | RustyShackleford: I use Kubuntu on my work machine, xfce on my media center, and unity on my laptop in the garage. | 08:45 |
| RustyShackleford | they are definitely doing some things right | 08:46 |
| ServerSage | jlmarks: i3? | 08:46 |
| t16h | but, actually, probably not, unity is too opinionated in its interfaces | 08:46 |
| t16h | i like choice | 08:46 |
| jlmarks | ServerSage: http://i3wm.org/ it is a tiling window manager | 08:47 |
| RustyShackleford | in particular, I like the keyboard shortcuts for window management | 08:47 |
| lotherk | could anyone with ubuntu 14.04 please run 'apt-get install syslog-ng -s' and tell me if it's broken there, too? (note -s, it actually won't install anything) | 08:47 |

| ServerSage | RustyShackleford: I don't use a window manager much to be honest. My main machine is a Mac Pro. | 08:48 |
| jlmarks | lotherk: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. | 08:48 |
| RustyShackleford | ServerSage, you get your linux fix on servers mostly? | 08:48 |

| ServerSage | fidel: Yes, it is. | 08:49 |
| ServerSage | RustyShackleford: Mostly. | 08:49 |

| lotherk | ServerSage: yea, didn't know that I had to remove rsyslog by hand. | 08:51 |

| Hsaka | I have a question about ubuntu 14.04, what does the application "Online Account"? Does it gives you notifications? | 09:17 |
| Harry8906 | i did that, it only shows win 7 | 09:17 |
| lotuspsychje | Hsaka: you can online accounts to ubuntu, so they show in left bar | 09:17 |
| ubilli8 | hi gues | 09:17 |
| strigga | ServerSage: Oh dear. I am doing a lot with automatized timelapse photogeaphy - there a literally millions of files - seems that my working day just came to an end :D | 09:17 |

| ServerSage | strigga: Some would call that a win. | 09:18 |

| Harry8906 | where does it come | 09:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Harry8906: during setup of ubuntu, you can choose setup along side windows 7 | 09:23 |

| Abhishek_ | Is it normal for remaining battery to dip when I connect an external screen to my laptop. If a screen isn't connected it shows 3 hrs remain, but only 2 hrs with screen connected! | 09:24 |
| ubilli8 | i am trying to install gnome this is mycode http://pastebin.com/embed_iframe.php?i=3Z0RY7XV | 09:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Harry8906: loose w7 once and for good mate, make your life easy with clean install 14.04 | 09:25 |
| Pricey | Abhishek_: Sounds sensible to me? It takes electricity to drive a display? | 09:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Harry8906: ill help you with ubuntu alternative software afterwards | 09:25 |
| Abhishek_ | Shouldn't it be the opposite if I switch off the laptop's own LCD and connect an external screen? | 09:25 |
| Pricey | Abhishek_: Only stands to reason that power is saved if there's no display connected. | 09:25 |
| Harry8906 | can't loose win 7 | 09:25 |
| Pricey | Abhishek_: Ah so you're questioning why using an external display uses more power than the built-in one? | 09:25 |
| Abhishek_ | yes | 09:26 |
| Harry8906 | i am not only user to use it, i wanted it for development | 09:26 |
| strigga | Abhishek_: Same resolution? | 09:26 |
| Abhishek_ | Pricey: yes | 09:26 |
| Abhishek_ | 1920x1080 , laptop's 1366x768 | 09:26 |
| strigga | Well: More pixels, more power to the graphics card (that's a wild guess, but is logical, isn't it?) | 09:27 |
| Abhishek_ | In Windows, I remember getting more backup with lid down and external display connected. The laptop (has hybrid graphics ATI/Intel, I force to Intel) | 09:27 |
| Abhishek_ | strigga: Okay, I agree to the points but why Windows shows more available battery life? | 09:29 |
| Abhishek_ | with internal screen off? | 09:29 |
| ubilli8 | i am trying to install gnome this is mycode http://pastebin.com/embed_iframe.php?i=3Z0RY7XV | 09:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Abhishek_: you could doublecheck dconf-editor settings for energy | 09:30 |
| lotuspsychje | ubilli8: is gnome-shell what you trying to install? | 09:30 |
| strigga | Abhishek_: It's probably a driver issue. Most Graphics windows drivers are very well optimized (more customers) | 09:30 |
| k1l_ | ubilli8: do you have PPAs enabled? | 09:31 |
| ubilli8 | gtk+ 3 | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | !info gnome-shell | ubilli8 | 09:31 |
| ubottu | ubilli8: gnome-shell (source: gnome-shell): graphical shell for the GNOME desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.10.4-0ubuntu5.1 (trusty), package size 298 kB, installed size 1039 kB | 09:31 |
| ubilli8 | <k1l_> please what are the PPAS | 09:32 |
| k1l_ | ubilli8: please pastebin the output of "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" | 09:32 |
| strigga | Abhishek_: I have the same issue with my laptop - on windows the battery lasts a lot longer than on ubuntu. As I am hardly working off a power plug, I found it worth it | 09:32 |
| ubilli8 | on gtk-3 manual they said i shoud do this jhbuild sanitycheck | 09:32 |
| ubilli8 | <k1l_> http://pastebin.com/embed_js.php?i=qjzAdhrE | 09:34 |
| Abhishek_ | strigga lotuspsychje : yes, I understand. I'm currently running ATI/Intel fglrx driver and forced it to Intel mode. I installed dconf-editor but it gives me an error: (dconf-editor:2858): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display | 09:34 |
| Ugb3 | Hey guys, I'll maybe sound stupid but I just can't fill a bug repport on lauchpad, the only "report a bug" link take me to the wiki but I don't have any way to actually fill a report exept from ubuntu itself... anyone could point me the right direction ? | 09:35 |
| ubilli8 | on GTK+ 3 manual they said i sould install jhbuild | 09:36 |
| k1l_ | ubilli8: seems like one of those PPAs interfers with another libwebkitgtk package. so it blocks your install | 09:36 |
| Abhishek_ | never mind, I was trying that on an SSH to my board, so that warning | 09:37 |
| Abhishek_ | lotuspsychje: Where to look in dconf-editor? | 09:38 |

| jonny | Sounds like the downloaded package is potentially corrupt. | 10:11 |
| ubilli8 | <jonny> yes libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 | 10:11 |
| jonny | apt-get clean should remove all cached downloaded .deb package. | 10:12 |

| IdleOne | bitbuzzer: or like deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty multiverse | 11:05 |

| lmat | I just upgraded to 14.04, and I'm having some trouble with my desktop environment. There area few things, and I'm hoping they're all related and have the same fix ^_^ | 11:53 |
| IdleOne | Kovica: as far as I can tell it seems they will, things can change there too | 11:53 |
| lmat | When typing into the console, I often get artifacts, specifically, missing characters. This happens if I type while the cursor is absent (it blinks on and off, when I type when it's off, the characters don't show up, but they really are typed) | 11:54 |
| lmat | Also, I use cairo dock and compiz (unity). I turned on "Negative" plugin. When I negate the entire screen, the area around cairo-dock shows a white background (covering everything else up) | 11:55 |
| Kovica | IdleOne: OK, thanks for now :) You've been a great help | 11:55 |
| IdleOne | Kovica: you're welcome | 11:55 |
| lmat | The pixels placed by cairo-dock are transparent. I'm guessing that negate is negating the alpha channel, too (making them opaque, and white) :( | 11:55 |
| lmat | Also, I used to have the ubuntu bar on the top of the screen (without the launcher on the left side) when running cairo-dock | 11:56 |
| lmat | It was an option on the login screen. Now it's not an option, and I don't have the bar. | 11:56 |
| lmat | Any suggestions? ^_^ | 11:56 |
| rafaelement | Imat: you hould try going to system settings -> screens and see whether there is a ssecond, invisible screen there. if yes, disable it | 11:56 |

| wilhelm1 | Something is forwarding all of the http connections to https and it is likely firefox, what is an alternate browser for quantal? | 13:19 |
| wilhelm1 | Is there a package for mosaic? | 13:20 |
| Seveas | wilhelm1: firefox doesn't automatically do that. Maybe if you use something like the https-everywhere extension, but not vanilla firefox. | 13:20 |
| Seveas | there's no package for mosaic, given that it's utterly obsolete. You can try chomium though | 13:21 |
| wilhelm1 | Seveas: it looks to be compiled in to this local firefox version. | 13:21 |
| Seveas | wilhelm1: well, if you're not using ubuntu-provided packages, there's not much we can do to help | 13:22 |
| wilhelm1 | Seveas: Ubuntu provides 'vanilla' firefox? | 13:23 |
| wilhelm1 | Seveas: no | 13:23 |
| aaa801 | mhm, https://gitorious.org/xf86-video-sis671 | 13:24 |
| wilhelm1 | Seveas: Where is the Ubuntu 'vanilla' firefox package? | 13:27 |
| Seveas | wilhelm1: there is no such thing. | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | wilhelm1 its in the repositories. use software center | 13:28 |
| wilhelm1 | Seveas: Where may one obtain a 'vanilla' software cd | 13:28 |
| Seveas | cfhowlett: a 'vanilla' firefox? I thought Ubuntu only shipped firefox with its own patches and extensions? | 13:28 |
| Seveas | wilhelm1: nowhere. | 13:29 |
| ikonia | what's not vanilla about it / | 13:29 |
| cfhowlett | Seveas ah, THAT >>> download from mozilla.org | 13:29 |
| wilhelm1 | Agent Smith is a lie | 13:29 |
| ikonia | whitenite: ? how is that anything to with ubuntu ? | 13:30 |
| ikonia | what's not vanilla about the firefox package the ubuntu ships ? | 13:30 |
| cfhowlett | ikonia apparently he objects to the Ubuntu branding ... | 13:30 |
| ikonia | what ubuntu branding ? | 13:30 |
| cfhowlett | ikonia "ubuntu help > ubuntu shop > ubuntu community and the logo | 13:31 |
| Seveas | ikonia: vanilla in this context usually means unchanged | 13:31 |
| Seveas | and Ubuntu applies some patches during build | 13:31 |
| ikonia | but most of them are bugfix patches ? | 13:31 |
| ikonia | and things to change the default web page | 13:31 |
| ikonia | it's not really an issue unless they do some well hidden stuff that I've not seen | 13:32 |
| Seveas | ikonia: and the Ubuntu-provided extensions | 13:32 |
| ikonia | that's a seperate package though isn't it ? | 13:32 |
| ikonia | rather than in the firefox base package | 13:32 |
| Seveas | looks like they're in the base package | 13:33 |
| ikonia | dissapointing | 13:33 |
| ikonia | not the end of the world though | 13:33 |
| whoever | so what is the issue of the day | 13:33 |
| Seveas | anyway, none of this causes what wilhelm1 is seeing, so we're wasting our time with him :) | 13:33 |
| Seveas | whoever: global warming | 13:33 |
| wilhelm1 | Seveas: it is possible that something like https is added to the package | 13:34 |

| ez1 | hi | 14:33 |
| ez1 | Please, has someone installed XEN under ubuntu ? | 14:34 |
| ActionParsnip | ez1: many have | 14:34 |
| ez1 | Id like to make a question | 14:34 |
| ez1 | Suppose I install XEN under ubuntu, and I also create a VM for windows xp and I install all the software. Now, I go to another PC with different hardware, I also install XEN under ubuntu: can I copy the VM and it will work?? | 14:35 |
| cfhowlett | !details|ez1 | 14:35 |
| ubottu | ez1: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 14:35 |
| ActionParsnip | ez1: yes | 14:35 |
| ez1 | this is because I would like to make a hardware abstraction of an image i will have | 14:35 |
| bah_ | holstein, I use to do that as well but the reason I ask is that I want to remap some keys and need somthing I can remap. Do you use the alt-right+something to get the symbol map ? | 14:35 |
| ez1 | because i will have several computers and I would like to has only one guest per machine | 14:36 |
| ez1 | as far as i understand ActionParsnip: with XEN i need to deal with hardware drivers but only for the HOST | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ez1: does it use abstracted / virtaulized hardware? | 14:37 |
| holstein | bah_: i had no issues, on that hardware, mapping as needed.. but, my needs may not be the same as yours | 14:37 |
| ez1 | ActionParsnip: I dont understand sorry, can you give me some detail ? | 14:38 |
| ez1 | i would do this to avoid to install all the software in different hardware | 14:38 |
| bah_ | holstein, so if I understand you correctly you can type for example right-alt+g and you get some kind of symbol printed ? | 14:39 |
| ActionParsnip | ez1: is the video card fake and not reported as the one you actually have in your system? for example | 14:39 |
| ez1 | so the idea would be, for the first computer: install ubuntu --> install XEN 32 bits --> create a virtual machine for windows XP and install all the software, boot from grub the VM. In all the other machines --> install ubuntu --> install XEN 32 bits --> COPY THE IMAGE i previously created. | 14:40 |
| ez1 | ActionParsnip: i dont know because i did not make anything yet | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ez1: if the hardware is virtualized then it doesnt matter what host it is on | 14:41 |
| bah_ | yes I guess I need to find somebody with a mac using a US keyboard...nobody here ? | 14:41 |
| ez1 | ActionParsnip: the hardware would be virtualized, but XEN need to be installed in a specific hardware | 14:41 |
| ez1 | would it be possible to simply clone it ? | 14:42 |
| StR | hi everyone!! Is it possible to change the engine used as browser for the webapps? the webapps are launched in a different browser, not allowing me to right click, copy texts, paste, spellchecking or nothing I can do with firefox.. how do I change that "ubuntu browser" for firefox? | 14:42 |
| bah_ | * US keyboard US mac-keyboard | 14:42 |
| holstein | bah_: its a *much* older macbook that i dont have in front of me.. so, i have no way of testing that specific scenario.. but, yes, i was able to map as needed | 14:44 |
| holstein | bah_: try mapping to other combos.. try mapping other simpler things.. | 14:44 |

| wheatthin | sorry, losing concentration.. my dog was just poisoned.. but you can edit the /etc/skel with any text editor like gedit using gksudo | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip | wheatthin: in Trusty you can use sudo with GUI apps. They fixed it with polkit | 14:57 |
| wheatthin | ahh sweet :) thanks for the info ActionParsnip | 14:58 |
| te_ | So, gksudo is no longer used? | 14:59 |
| holstein | !gksudo | 15:00 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 15:00 |
| holstein | te_: i use it, when i need/want it | 15:00 |
| imdea | Hi i have an ubuntu server 14.04 box that has a NIC with 4 ports. When I do 'ifconfig' I see: p4p1, p4p2, p4p3 and a fourth one called "rename5" that I suppose it's the other port, but why isn't it named like the other ones? | 15:00 |
| te_ | I'm just wondering if it is no longer installed by default. | 15:00 |
| holstein | te_: check and see.. i remember installing it recently | 15:00 |
| te_ | " Package gksudo does not exist in trusty" | 15:01 |
| holstein | !info gkso | 15:02 |
| ubottu | Package gkso does not exist in trusty | 15:02 |
| holstein | !info gksu | 15:02 |
| ubottu | gksu (source: gksu): graphical frontend to su. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.2-6ubuntu2 (trusty), package size 26 kB, installed size 172 kB | 15:02 |
| holstein | te_: so, "sudo apt-get install gksu" | 15:02 |
| te_ | holstein: r, just use sudo | 15:02 |
| holstein | te_: there is no package "gksudo".. the package to install is "gksu".. that package provides the gksudo command to you.. if you want/need it | 15:03 |
| mobiGeek | morning folks! | 15:04 |
| imdea | anyone? | 15:05 |
| te_ | So, are we to assume gksudo has been deprecated? And that gksu has taken it's place? (But why not just use sudo?)--(from thursty forward...)? | 15:05 |

| mobiGeek | I have a system running in a VirtualBox. but it is PAINFULLY slow. Any suggestions on how I can benchmark or profile the system to determine where slowdowns are (disk, cpu, memory, etc.)? | 15:06 |
| mobiGeek | (BTW: my system is a headless server) | 15:06 |
| ndf | isn't there a specific channel for ubuntu server? | 15:06 |
| ndf | I was just looking for it but it seems I can't find it | 15:06 |
| Fuchs | ndf: alis finds it | 15:07 |
| miqui | quesion: any here uses a keepass equivalent? | 15:07 |
| ndf | ? | 15:07 |
| Fuchs | ndf: you can search for channels with alis, see /msg alis help list. /msg alis list *searchterm* looks for channel names containing searchterm. /msg alis list * -topic *searchterm* looks for channel topics containing searchterm., you are looking for #ubuntu-server | 15:07 |
| imdea | holstein, yes but it's a bit annoying to refer to it as "rename5" instad of p4p5 for instance. I have searched in google but the web pages I've found say something about editing an udev persistent configuration file, but in my machine that file doesn't even exist. | 15:07 |
| holstein | mobiGeek: well, you can give the guest more/less ram, and test.. the cpu shouldnt be an issue.. the disk is usually not an issue either, but, just set up some tests to isolate.. maybe a live CD on the same virtual environment | 15:07 |

| Fuchs | miqui: kwallet can't do everything keepass(x) can, also note that there are keypass(x) frontends available for linux. But for what I need it is sufficient. | 15:08 |

| miqui | Fuchs: k, thanks....is there an ubuntu pkg for keepassx? | 15:11 |
| te_ | fellayaboy: It is probably due to the way it is mounted. The use has to have permissions for those files r or rw etc.. | 15:11 |

| fellayaboy | yeah i do have ntfs-3g | 15:14 |
| fellayaboy | i can access the drive | 15:14 |
| te_ | fellayaboy: If you rsync regularly from this drive, you may look into perminately mounting it with a fstab entry. | 15:14 |
| wheatthin | did you write permission entry in fstab? | 15:14 |
| imdea | holstein: the question is, _where_ do I do that? | 15:14 |
| te_ | fellayaboy: A fastab entry will allow you to customize mounting of the drive to suit your needs. | 15:15 |
| wheatthin | then remount the drive, then you'll have full permissions | 15:15 |
| te_ | fellayaboy: There could also be a problem with the drive. Sometimes a HD defect will cause it to only mount in certian way | 15:16 |
| holstein | imdea: http://rbgeek.wordpress.com/2012/05/13/change-the-network-card-name-in-ubuntu-12-04/ should stil be relevant.. though, i would ask in a server channel, or mailing list. or just use them "as-is".. the labels are just that.. labels | 15:16 |

| te_ | Dlabz: Ok. We assumend that you may not have known that your version of Ubuntu had reached End Of Life, (so we informed you). LTS means long term support (5 years worth). Most of us that run servers use LTS. It is a good practice to use LTS. | 15:39 |

| holstein | Dlabz: i would argue, by running a non supported operating system, its already broken | 15:42 |
| te_ | ActionParsnip: (... not that I understand the issue about metapackage....) | 15:43 |
| holstein | Dlabz: its a "good" practice to run a supported opterating system, because keeping up with security and kernel patches by one's self can be challenging | 15:43 |
| Dlabz | works just fine, holstein ... but thanks for a helpfull advice | 15:43 |

| chemist^ | holstein, this? | 15:44 |
| te_ | Dlabz: The motivation for not breaking something is good but can be carried to extreme. | 15:44 |
| holstein | chemist^: thats what has met my personal needs | 15:44 |
| chemist^ | holstein, will audacity now read mp4 files? | 15:44 |
| igor_ | sorry i crashed its a galium | 15:45 |
| igor_ | i think | 15:45 |
| igor_ | galium 0.4 on NVAF | 15:45 |

| te_ | Dlabz: I have upgraded Ubuntu systems many times online and have never had a failure. Maybe I'm just lucky, but.... one thing to consider is that if you are too afraid of breaking something, you will limit your options toward development and advancement. | 15:46 |
| Dlabz | te_: I see no point in risking breaking something, and loosing a week figuring out what got broken... I'll update on my terms. I'm the only person using this server, so I don't see the point in worying about security | 15:46 |

| chemist^ | holstein, right | 15:49 |
| ActionParsnip | igor_: try the boot option: nouveau.blacklist=1 | 15:49 |
| Lsama | I have installed a full install on usb stick and forgot to make it bootable | 15:50 |

| holstein | Lsama: it works anywhere you want/need to install grub, and can | 15:51 |
| te_ | Dlabz: We welcome you to upgrade on your own terms and in your own time, but if you upgrade to 13.10 and then to 14.04, you will probably not encounter any problems, (or not many). By all means, take your time. What I would do is upgrade to 13.10 and then make sure it is fully updated, (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade), make sure everythig is ok and working good, (fix what may be broken, if anything. Then, (at your leisure), upgrade to 14.04. | 15:51 |
| igor_ | how would i do that? | 15:51 |

| igor_ | so what do i do | 15:52 |
| Lsama | holstein, I will try that. Thanks | 15:52 |
| igor_ | im on the ubuntu right know | 15:52 |
| holstein | igor_: choose how you want to proceed, and go for it | 15:52 |
| igor_ | but it keeps crashing i cant dowwnload anything | 15:53 |
| holstein | igor_: what i found i needed was reFit.. or, you can refer to the graphics drivers, and just try a proprietary graphics driver | 15:53 |
| holstein | igor_: i understand.. mine did the same, but, apple didnt promise me linux would work on the machine, so i worked with it, troubleshooting | 15:53 |
| te_ | Dlabz: See: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS | 15:53 |
| holstein | igor_: i used another machine to create a reFit iso.. but, it may be simpler for you to try the GPU driver first.. | 15:54 |
| igor_ | so do i need to use bless it refit or something | 15:54 |
| igor_ | i herad that works | 15:54 |
| holstein | igor_: it worked for me.. but, i dont have your hardware | 15:54 |
| igor_ | so basically i have to get refitt onto my computer then redownload ubuntu? | 15:55 |
| igor_ | reinstall* | 15:55 |
| Dlabz | te_: thanks, i get what you're saying. I had to abandon 12.04 due compatibility issue... | 15:55 |
| holstein | igor_: no.. only apple would be able to tell you want to definitively do.. they pay professionals to make sure OSX will run on that hardware.. you need to take that role on, and make sure linux will work | 15:56 |
| te_ | Dlabz: What compatability issue did you encounter? | 15:56 |
| igor_ | ok thx alot i will try thankyou | 15:56 |
| holstein | igor_: tring reFit *reallY* helped me, on my hardware.. i cant speak for your hardware.. though, the grahphics driver would be easier | 15:56 |
| nicferrier | ActionParsnip: yeah, but I wanted to do it without awk. | 15:57 |
| nicferrier | ActionParsnip: that's exactly what I was asking. | 15:57 |
| Dlabz | te_: so, seen you have time, you could have simply helped me, you know. | 15:58 |
| deadmund | nicferrier: Why not use awk ? This is the sort of job awk was designed for? | 15:59 |
| nicferrier | deadmund: it is but it's also fragile because it has no way of knowing when the input changed format. | 15:59 |
| te_ | Dlabz: What compatability issue did you encounter? | 15:59 |
| Dlabz | If I remember right, I had to update JRE and tomcat, and one of those didn't work on 12.04 | 16:01 |
| Dlabz | If I remember right, I had to update JRE and tomcat, and one of those didn't work on 12.04, te_ | 16:01 |
| holstein | Dlabz: 12.04 is supported, and those issues may be addressed.. | 16:01 |
| Dlabz | holstein: ok, let me downgrade real quick :P | 16:01 |
| holstein | Dlabz: upgrading it whas has been suggested | 16:02 |
| v0lksman | hello all! I have a system that has been crashing a lot. I believe it's the vid drivers causing problems and I'm likely going to replace the vid card to try to fix that. My question is around a drive attached to the system. I have a 1T USB drive connected. Everytime it crashes the drive refuses to mount and I need to fsck it before I can mount it. Is this an indication that the drive might be dying? | 16:02 |
| gatchi | i dont understand why its so not intuitive to customize desktop environment settings | 16:03 |
| te_ | Dlabz: I see. But if you were ok with upgrading 12.04 to 13.04, why is it that you are so afraid to upgrade to 13.10 and then to 14.04? | 16:03 |
| gatchi | other than changing wallpapel | 16:03 |
| gatchi | or to a premade theme | 16:03 |
| gatchi | even windows gives you some flexibility | 16:03 |
| Seus | question: I'm running 13.10, and am interested in swapping out my NVIDIA gfx card for an ATI R9 280X...is there a procedure I should follow? Or is it just swap out GPUs and the OS takes care of the rest? | 16:04 |
| holstein | Seus: i would remove any proprietary drivers i have installed | 16:04 |
| ActionParsnip | nicferrier: not sure how then, awk is by far the easiest way to get what you want from nmcli | 16:05 |
| Dlabz | te_: ubuntu is not reccomending to update from ssh. | 16:05 |
| nicferrier | ActionParsnip: yeah. I'd just hoped I could ask it to just print the specific variable that I wanted without parsing. never mind. | 16:05 |
| deadmund | Seus: Just swap sir! Let's see if there is good support for that card | 16:05 |
| te_ | Dlabz: At any rate, you have been given advise, take it or leave it. The choice is yours. | 16:05 |
| holstein | Dlabz: you can.. you can input the commands as you need. .you should have your server backed up regardless | 16:06 |
| Seus | Going to give it a go...lets see what happens | 16:06 |
| holstein | Seus: there are recovery kernel options.. if you have problems | 16:06 |
| Dlabz | te_: so, I'll do-release-upgrade. What happens if my upgrade failed? do I get support for trying, or am left alone? | 16:06 |
| te_ | Dlabz: How did you do with the upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04? | 16:07 |
| holstein | Dlabz: you *should* have backupds, regardless of this upgrade.. so, plan for total failure for just safety sake, and procede as you please | 16:07 |
| v0lksman | further, does anyone have any good docs on installing the nvidia driver from the nvidia site in 14.04? | 16:07 |
| Pa^2 | Cursor changes to huge in app windows, back to small on the desktop. Any ideas why? | 16:08 |
| te_ | v0lksman: You just need to turn off X before the install, other than that, Nvidia's instructions are sufficient. | 16:09 |
| Dlabz | te_: I ran the update, it crashed, i lost access to the server, had to pay $50 for reinstall of a fresh, updated OS, and started from scratch. | 16:09 |
| te_ | v0lksman: What version of Ubuntu are you running? | 16:09 |
| holstein | Dlabz: you may not be running ubuntu, but a vendor version of ubuntu | 16:09 |
| te_ | Dlabz: What kind of server is it? | 16:10 |
| holstein | Dlabz: you should seek support from them,a nd see if they are applying patches to 13.04 for you | 16:10 |
| AcidRain2012 | hmmm | 16:10 |
| AcidRain2012 | how do i get chanserv into a channel? | 16:10 |

| Dlabz | te_, holstein so, you might now understand my hesitation about upgrade | 16:11 |
| AcidRain2012 | dw1, thx | 16:11 |
| v0lksman | te_: 14.04...I've dropped to shell killed lightdm and run the Nvidia package. When I reboot I get the dreaded black screen with blinking cursor... | 16:11 |

| holstein | Dlabz: not really.. i would have no hesitaion in having a complete backup, and control over them, and the restoring of them | 16:11 |
| te_ | v0lksman: You have to do the config, (and ultimately create the xorg.conf file). | 16:11 |
| v0lksman | te_: I let the installer create the config...is there more than that? | 16:12 |
| dw1 | Dlabz: some providers offer console/recovery access and re-imaging free. :/ | 16:12 |
| Dlabz | te_, holsteincheers, guys... I have work to do | 16:12 |

| te_ | v0lksman: Do you have an xorg.conf file yet? | 16:13 |
| dw1 | BARACKEFELLER: way out of date | 16:13 |
| te_ | v0lksman: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:13 |
| daftykins | BARACKEFELLER: natty is an *ancient* dead release, it is EOL and so no longer supported - remove that entry from your sources | 16:13 |
| v0lksman | te_: I had one but removed it when rolling back to the Ubuntu provided driver | 16:13 |
| daftykins | BARACKEFELLER: what version are you running? "cat /etc/issue" | 16:14 |
| BARACKEFELLER | is there a way to update it | 16:14 |
| BARACKEFELLER | 11.04 | 16:14 |
| te_ | v0lksman: nvidia-xconfig | 16:14 |
| v0lksman | daftykins: because the ones provided by Ubuntu suck, and the proprietary drivers listed in the additional drivers tool also suck (tearing and I believe it's leading to X crashing) | 16:14 |
| BARACKEFELLER | i also have a 9.10 box with a simbilar errors | 16:14 |
| daftykins | BARACKEFELLER: that release is also ancient and unsupported, it would take a lot of effort, so i would recommend you just backup your data and clean install 14.04 | 16:14 |
| daftykins | BARACKEFELLER: same situation for both then | 16:14 |
| te_ | v0lksman: Wait, you installed the Nvidia driver from Ubuntu repo? | 16:14 |
| BARACKEFELLER | @_@ | 16:14 |

| te_ | v0lksman: Maybe you need to start over and tell us what you've done, (and in the order in which you have done these things). | 16:15 |
| daftykins | BARACKEFELLER: because you'd have to upgrade multiple times and it'd take hours, so you're best off just clean installing. | 16:16 |

| v0lksman | Hrm. Well I installed from scratch. nouveau is default but there is tearing. Added the xorg-edgers ppa and installed nvidia-331. still tearing and random crashes (usually after watching vids). installed 337 from nvidia, got the black screen, rolled back to 331 from PPA and sit with it in that state | 16:17 |
| daftykins | v0lksman: there is no reason to be using xorg-edgers on 14.04 | 16:18 |
| te_ | v0lksman: Bottom line is, that if you have installed Nvidia proprietary drivers from Ubuntu repositories and you want to install from Nvidia and use Nvidia's installer, you would first need to un-install the ones you installed from Ubuntu repositories, (using the apt package manager). | 16:18 |
| v0lksman | by tearing I mean videos show tearing, the desktop shows tons of weird artifacts seemingly at random | 16:18 |
| v0lksman | daftykins: base doesn't come with any does it? | 16:19 |
| te_ | v0lksman: Sounds like it may be a hardware issue. | 16:19 |
| daftykins | nvidia packages? sure it does | 16:19 |
| daftykins | but you have to install them | 16:19 |
| v0lksman | daftykins: I thought it was just nouveau...non-proprietary | 16:19 |
| daftykins | nope | 16:19 |
| daftykins | sounds like you've been led astray by a very bad guide | 16:19 |
| v0lksman | hrm...yeah looks like 331 is in the repo | 16:20 |
| v0lksman | wonder why I went back to edgers | 16:21 |
| daftykins | but you're going to want to ditch that repo | 16:21 |

| v0lksman | te_: well I now know that edgers is not needed (not for 331 at least). but I don't think I've solved my problem yet | 16:26 |
| te_ | v0lksman: You should have uninstalled those packages before installing the ones you downloaded from Nvidia. | 16:26 |
| v0lksman | now that I have stock 331 installed should I remove those too before trying nvidia's again? | 16:27 |
| te_ | v0lksman: Yes | 16:27 |

| ubottu | RustyShackleford: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. 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 | 16:59 |
| BLZbubba | i can't believe i have to rebuild the systemd package just to get systemctl | 17:00 |
| RustyShackleford | uh, not really | 17:00 |
| wilhelm1 | What is the most efficient way, efficient meaning the least downloading and extra steps and code, to install packages in apt-cache on another machine? The concern is with apt-get being used primarily for Internet transfers satisfying dependencies so if the files are copied and dpkg is used to install them doing dpkg -i on each individual packageg causes more work. | 17:00 |
| trism | BLZbubba: what do you need systemctl for when we aren't using systemd? (just curious) | 17:00 |
| deadmund | BLZbubba: systemctl is part of systemd, a lot of people are upset that systemd is not modular enough. It's a hugh point of contention | 17:01 |
| RustyShackleford | i can't get the liveusb to boot when my laptop uses eufi mode | 17:01 |
| === sz0` is now known as sz0 | ||
| BLZbubba | deadmund: well the worst piece of sh!t init system ever made is upstart, so it is an improvement | 17:01 |
| BLZbubba | trism: sshd on 14.04 has a systemd init file | 17:02 |
| trism | BLZbubba: yes but we do not use it | 17:02 |
| trism | BLZbubba: /etc/init/ssh.conf | 17:02 |
| BLZbubba | i thought ubuntu was switching to systemd finally | 17:02 |
| te_ | RustyShackleford: Check bios settings, its different for different macines. Sometimes you hit F10 for boot menu,.... | 17:02 |
| trism | BLZbubba: you can use systemd in 14.10 but it isn't default yet | 17:02 |
| RustyShackleford | te_, yeah I know that part. I can get it to boot in BIOS mode | 17:02 |
| te_ | RustyShackleford: So what is the problem? | 17:03 |
| RustyShackleford | but if I select boot from usb under UEFI, it chokes | 17:03 |
| BLZbubba | ok well those idiots just put upstart into 10.04 without any warning, they should have done the same with 14.04 and systemd | 17:03 |
| RustyShackleford | and windows boots instead | 17:03 |
| deadmund | wilhelm1: This may be helpful : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=564301 | 17:03 |
| te_ | RustyShackleford: You might try legacy boot | 17:03 |
| te_ | RustyShackleford: Or just install to the HD | 17:03 |
| BLZbubba | oh i see, openssh has both a systemd and an upstart file | 17:03 |
| wilhelm1 | Is there a quick way to use apt-get to install them locally? Does specifying the path in the url of apt config work? | 17:04 |
| gatchi | so im a little confused to what things control the window environment on linux | 17:04 |
| BLZbubba | but why TF would ubuntu build the systemd package but leave out systemctl? that is just stupid | 17:04 |
| RustyShackleford | te_, yeah legacy boot might be the way to go. But then I'll have to reinstall windows | 17:04 |
| gatchi | like i know gnome has "themes" | 17:04 |
| RustyShackleford | i need my netflix | 17:04 |
| BLZbubba | gatchi: you mean besides the window manager | 17:04 |
| trism | BLZbubba: we use parts of systemd like logind | 17:04 |
| BLZbubba | ? | 17:04 |
| gatchi | BLZbubba, uhhhh | 17:05 |
| deadmund | BLZbubba: Have you tried using apt-file search "systemctl" to find what (if any) package provides that file? | 17:05 |
| BLZbubba | deadmund: yes, it is not there | 17:05 |
| gatchi | BLZbubba, wait is gnome a window manager | 17:06 |
| gatchi | or something else | 17:06 |
| BLZbubba | gatchi: this gets confusing, sorry in advance | 17:06 |
| Roxana18 | Here some videos. I hope you like them! http://bit.ly/1gPNuyO | 17:06 |
| gatchi | xD | 17:06 |
| deadmund | gatchi: gnome incorporates a window manager called "metacity" gnome is a "Desktop Environment" | 17:06 |
| gatchi | ohhhhhhhhhhh | 17:06 |
| BLZbubba | gnome is just a set of gui development libraries really, there is a dedicated program called a window manager to do the window borders & such | 17:07 |
| deadmund | gatchi: :) | 17:07 |
| BLZbubba | and there are a zillion to choose from | 17:07 |
| gatchi | ok | 17:07 |
| gatchi | so | 17:07 |
| Beldar | gatchi, gnome is to vague, depends on the desktop, or how you set it up yourself. | 17:07 |
| gatchi | im using gnome with openbox | 17:07 |
| gatchi | so openbox is the wm | 17:07 |
| deadmund | gatchi: ok | 17:07 |
| deadmund | gatchi: yeah | 17:07 |
| gatchi | hmm | 17:07 |
| gatchi | so heres the weird thing | 17:07 |
| BLZbubba | trism: so is it a bug that systemctl is missing, or intentionally left out? | 17:07 |
| gatchi | i have a control panel for openbox | 17:08 |
| gatchi | but it seems to only control some of the elements.... | 17:08 |
| gatchi | like, with the theme i have now, | 17:08 |
| BLZbubba | if you're going to systemd, it is probably a bad idea to make it difficult to get used to it.... I was trying to use it by default wherever possible | 17:08 |
| Beldar | gatchi, Try to keep your posts consolidated, don't use enter as punctuation. | 17:08 |
| deadmund | BLZbubba: If you have opinions about ubuntu, go to ubuntu-chat if you need tech support, ask questions here | 17:09 |
| gatchi | oh, ok | 17:09 |
| trism | BLZbubba: it is not included because we don't have the systemd binary, it is disabled since we still use upstart in 14.04, in 14.10 it is reenabled | 17:09 |
| trism | BLZbubba: but not installed by default yet | 17:09 |
| Beldar | gatchi, Cool, just makes it more difficult to keep the info together is all. ;) | 17:09 |
| GrandMaster | HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA - http://bit.ly/1pd993r. Not a chance!! | 17:10 |
| GrandMaster | Is Mint based on Ubuntu? | 17:10 |
| nnjpp | yes | 17:10 |
| Beldar | GrandMaster, Has been there is s debian based version, none supported here. | 17:10 |
| BLZbubba | ok thanks. this is painful but whatever it takes to get rid of upstart is worth doing. my 8.04 servers are just about end of lifed, and there is no way i will run 10.04, 12.04, or 14.04 | 17:10 |
| gatchi | So for example the theme i have now makes some context windows grey with a darker grey highlight, but the start menu, and other application menus look like the default metacity theme | 17:10 |
| GrandMaster | Debian based mint? | 17:10 |
| gatchi | Its not possible both are running at the same time, is it? | 17:11 |
| Beldar | GrandMaster, Honestly ask them. | 17:11 |
| Beldar | !mint | 17:11 |
| ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 17:11 |
| wilhelm1 | This http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=564301 is exactly what my question specified against, that is downloading a bunch of packages adding code and steps. | 17:11 |
| GrandMaster | I hope Linux renders Windows obsolete one day. Have a good evening folks! | 17:12 |
| rahuL__ | citrix | 17:12 |
| RustyShackleford | GrandMaster, keep hoping | 17:12 |
| GrandMaster | RustyShackleford: Or keep spreading the word:) | 17:12 |
| GrandMaster | Ha ha bye! :) | 17:12 |
| te_ | GrandMaster: Won't happen ;0 | 17:13 |
| wilhelm1 | Is there a quick way to use apt-get to install them from local files? Does specifying the path in the url of apt config work? | 17:13 |
| Beldar | wilhelm1, what is this install in the local files? apt-get calls the repos | 17:13 |
| RustyShackleford | well these workarouunds are disapointing | 17:14 |
| RustyShackleford | One is to install ubuntu in BIOS mode, then convert the install to UEFI later | 17:14 |
| te_ | wilhelm1: dpkg | 17:15 |
| daftykins | RustyShackleford: workaround to what? | 17:15 |
| Beldar | wilhelm1, I see from your link what you basically mean, I missed that. | 17:15 |
| RustyShackleford | daftykins, i can't get my laptop to boot this liveusb in UEFI mode | 17:15 |
| TJ- | wilhelm1: see apt-offline http://www.debian-administration.org/article/648/Offline_Package_Management_for_APT | 17:15 |
| RustyShackleford | it does however, boot if I turn on legacy mode | 17:15 |
| daftykins | RustyShackleford: is there a reason you feel compelled to use an EFI install? | 17:15 |
| holstein | RustyShackleford: let the manufacturer know you are having an issue with the way they have left it configured for you | 17:15 |
| RustyShackleford | yep, windows is already installed and configured | 17:16 |
| daftykins | RustyShackleford: did you make the drive with unetbootin? | 17:16 |
| RustyShackleford | daftykins, no, dd | 17:16 |
| te_ | RustyShackleford: What is the dissapointing part? | 17:16 |
| RustyShackleford | te_, it doesn't just work automagically | 17:16 |
| daftykins | RustyShackleford: cool, does your system's setup not list boot devices on either the boot or exit page? | 17:16 |
| DrDuck | Hello. I'd like to setup my Ubuntu so that I can simply type scala and be prompted by the interpreter. Is this the proper thing to add to my .bashrc? http://pastebin.com/VgYvZN3z | 17:16 |
| daftykins | RustyShackleford: for the separate entries of the flash drive as legacy and EFI mode | 17:17 |
| RustyShackleford | daftykins, it lists boot from usb. For example, I can boot a windows usb installer | 17:17 |
| Beldar | RustyShackleford, Besides the UEFI wiki, I like this for info on this. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 | 17:17 |
| daftykins | RustyShackleford: right but usually there are two entries for each device when a system is EFI capable | 17:17 |
| RustyShackleford | when I try to boot the ubuntu live usb, it chokes and then boots from hard disk instead | 17:17 |
| TJ- | RustyShackleford: Is the USB ISO image 32-bit or 64-bit Ubuntu? | 17:18 |
| daftykins | RustyShackleford: please forgive the idea, but you did dd to the root device and not a partition? | 17:18 |
| Peekay | Be sure to have the right bios configuration to boot via the usd driver | 17:18 |

| [S^K] | Hello, I have a python application that uses urllib2 to retreive a HTTP response from a remote server URI. If I use curl on the URI the response is quick as expected. However, urllib from my python script hangs for 60 seconds before completing. The script does not hang on my ubuntu development machine. What configurations could be causing this to happen? | 17:20 |
| te_ | RustyShackleford: The best advise I can give is just wipe the HD and istall with Ubuntu and be done with it. | 17:20 |
| RustyShackleford | yeah that is looking like the easiest thing unfortunately | 17:21 |
| te_ | RustyShackleford: (It's what Iwould do. | 17:21 |
| Beldar | te_, That your opinion, keep it to yourself here. | 17:21 |
| TJ- | [S^K]: probably DNS resolution is failing | 17:21 |
| te_ | Beldar: Why? | 17:21 |
| RustyShackleford | te_, don't worry, *I* appreciate your opinion! | 17:22 |
| Beldar | te_, Really, that is beyond your comprehension? | 17:22 |

| te_ | Beldar: Just offered the easiest solution. Not sure what the problem is. | 17:22 |
| Beldar | worded as an opinion is different than how you posted te_ | 17:22 |
| Beldar | eg In my opinion.............. | 17:23 |
| te_ | Beldar: Advise is given as is. It is always a take-it-or-leave it option. | 17:23 |
| Beldar | te_, sorry not here this is support, not your opinions without wording as such, this is basic communication. | 17:24 |
| te_ | Beldar: Advise - to give an opinion or suggestion | 17:24 |
| te_ | Beldar: Thank you for your constructive criticism. I will take your advise. | 17:25 |
| TJ- | RustyShackleford: Does the system have an AMI Patio firmware? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFIBooting#Live_CD_is_not_a_Boot_Option | 17:26 |
| RustyShackleford | nope I don't think so | 17:26 |
| TJ- | s/Patio/Aptio/ | 17:26 |
| RustyShackleford | Intel hardware | 17:26 |
| te_ | rapitivo: Just load them into a script that will run as needed. | 17:27 |
| On | hi | 17:27 |
| [S^K] | TJ-: Why would this only occur for an executable and not for curl / wget? Also the response does return eventually but it just takes a long time | 17:27 |
| === On is now known as Guest37482 | ||
| te_ | rapitivo: You can do it manually, or use ufw | 17:28 |
| Guest37482 | does anyone tell me ..how can i add $HOME/npm/bin to $PATH?? | 17:28 |
| rapitivo | te_: I'd like to load them on startup. | 17:28 |
| te_ | rapitivo: Correct, a startup script. | 17:29 |
| TJ- | [S^K]: You'd need to profile the Python application to identify where it is stalling | 17:29 |
| SCHAAP137 | Guest37482: export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/npm/bin should do the trick | 17:29 |
| Guest37482 | SCHAAP137:thinks. | 17:29 |

| SCHAAP137 | Guest37482: yq | 17:30 |
| SCHAAP137 | *yw | 17:30 |
| rapitivo | te_: I was thinking that way would be not "right". I'm gonna try. Thanks | 17:30 |
| [S^K] | TJ-: I have already profiled it, it stalls on the urllib2 request | 17:31 |
| te_ | rapitivo: Startup scripts are kept in /etc/init.d/ see man update-rc.d | 17:31 |
| te_ | rapitivo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBootupHowto | 17:32 |
| TJ- | [S^K]: Then I'd profile urllib2, and I'd monitor the network connections with tcpdump to check timings of the packets | 17:32 |
| rapitivo | te_: Tks | 17:32 |
| Beldar | rapitivo, 12.10 is eol. | 17:32 |

| te_ | cederfjard: Try hard-wire | 17:35 |
| holstein | fabio_: i would fresh install | 17:35 |
| wilhelm1 | Does cyagnus need hardware layer support? | 17:35 |
| Beldar | !eol | fabio_, look for the upgrade info. | 17:36 |
| ubottu | fabio_, look for the upgrade info.: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 17:36 |
| Beldar | fabio_, THere are eol releases between those releases. | 17:36 |
| wilhelm1 | If dpkg is like the 'brain' of the project what is the goal? | 17:36 |
| cederfjard | te_: I'll have to do some drilling in that case, so I'll leave that as final option :) | 17:36 |
| te_ | fabio_: You weren't offered 12.04 some time ago? | 17:36 |
| cederfjard | te_: It's a known issue with WiFi then? | 17:37 |
| TJ- | [S^K]: Maybe the server has IPv6 configured and is trying it first? | 17:37 |
| te_ | cederfjard: Well sure it is. | 17:37 |
| cederfjard | te_: Sounds like I should've googled better... Thanks for the nudge in the right direction. | 17:38 |
| te_ | fabio_: tail -1 /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades | 17:38 |

| igor_ | hey | 17:39 |
| igor_ | my ubuntu is completely zoomed in | 17:39 |
| te_ | cederfjard: If your signal to noise ratio is out of wack, you will have intermitten problems. | 17:39 |
| cederfjard | te_: Alright, makes sense. | 17:39 |
| te_ | *intermittent* | 17:39 |

| FreeMac | i was wondering about something: when you are on a page that use infinite scrolling, such as Flickr or Google image search, and you have to restart the browser for whatever reason and you have the browser set to start where you left (session restore), how do you get back to the place you were in the list of pictures? | 17:41 |
| te_ | FreeMac: I dono, maybe Alt-LeftArrow? | 17:41 |
| igor_ | hello, my whole screen is zoomed in and everything is bigger but still fits to screen | 17:41 |
| cederfjard | te_: The thing that's given me a moments pause is that I've found people who's wifi has hung when torrenting, but never seen them mention any of the other side effects, like that I can't reconnect or do anything "sudo" after this has happened. | 17:42 |
| SchrodingersScat | if it has to reload the js/etc. then it might not | 17:42 |
| te_ | FreeMac: Oh, you restart the browser? Well, you would have to search through cache I guess. Right? | 17:42 |
| Beldar | igor_, This a resolution issue, has it been this way always? | 17:43 |
| wilhelm1 | What is the goal? | 17:43 |
| te_ | cederfjard: Your situation may be different, I dont know. I only guessed that it might be an issue with radio(s). | 17:44 |
| igor_ | no i just did something with my nvidia to get it to work propally and it became like this | 17:44 |
| cederfjard | te_: Thanks for help man, I'll figure it out | 17:45 |
| Beldar | igor_, Thanks, be sure to give a cause and effect here is all, nvidia is not an area I have messed with. | 17:45 |
| te_ | cederfjard: (may or may *not* be RF related) | 17:45 |
| igor_ | no after i rebooted it and its zoomed in how do i change resolution | 17:45 |
| holstein | igor_: is it zoomed? or is it just set at the incorrect resolution? if you installed the nvidia driver, there is an nvidia config tool.. try setting the resolution, and saving the xorg.conf | 17:46 |
| te_ | igor_: What is zoomed? | 17:46 |

| HelloWorld321 | I'm trying to create a grub2 menu loopback entry, so I have to figure out the drive/partition of an ISO file. I typed: "mount|grep ^'/dev'" and got "/dev/sda6 on /home type ext4 (rw)", so I think my grub2 menu entry shuold include "loopback loop (hd0,6)$isofile". Is that right: sda6, (A)(6) implies partition 6 on harddrive 0: "(hd0,6)"? | 17:48 |
| [S^K] | TJ-: How could I check if IPv6 is configured? I certainly did not configure it but I guess it could be | 17:48 |
| te_ | igor_: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf (Does the file exist?) | 17:48 |
| dw1 | [S^K]: in ifconfig you might see an ipv6 address applied to interface | 17:49 |
| igor_ | no such file in the directory | 17:49 |

| igor_ | so what do i do know | 17:51 |
| holstein | igor_: now? you look for the invidia config tool that will allow you (potentially) to use the resolution you are trying to use | 17:52 |

| te_ | igor_: You may just need to run nvidia-xconfig | 17:56 |
| holstein | ^ thats the gui that i was referencing | 17:57 |
| Jonii | One of these is, one of the parameters is by default 0.0, which man page tells is display.screen format. I tried to change that to make one of my desktops the screen i stream | 17:58 |
| igor_ | how do i run it te | 17:58 |

| Jonii | Next, my streaming seems to run into trouble because my audio sample rate is too high or low or something, and as a result the video file will rush through itself, so that 5 minute long media file plays in less than 30s | 17:59 |
| te_ | igor_: cat /etc/issue #What does that say? | 17:59 |
| Jonii | Any ideas or help? | 18:00 |
| holstein | igor_: did you install the nvidia driver? or just add a PPA for bumblebee? if you dont need bumblebee, you shouldnt use it | 18:00 |
| subterfugium | I'm trying to stream my desktop by using this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1767488 . ffpmeg works now fine but it cannot find the desktop device /dev/video0 ... Any hints how to figure out /dev/ path for desktop or is there any? | 18:00 |
| Beldar | Jonii, Ubuntu? You mention other places is all. | 18:00 |
| igor_ | no such file in directory | 18:00 |
| holstein | igor_: right.. so, do you have the driver installed? | 18:01 |
| holstein | igor_: what did you install? and how? | 18:01 |
| Jonii | Beldar: I don't understand the question | 18:01 |
| igor_ | how do i check | 18:01 |
| te_ | igor_: Install ubuntu and come back and we will help you. | 18:01 |
| Beldar | Jonii, Is this issue on a ubuntu release, and if so what release? | 18:01 |
| holstein | igor_: look and tell me what you did | 18:01 |
| igor_ | ubuntu is insalled | 18:01 |
| igor_ | i am on it right know | 18:02 |
| holstein | igor_: what did you do? what commands did you run? from where? what have you done? | 18:02 |
| HelloWorld321 | bbl | 18:02 |
| te_ | igor_: lsb_release -a | pastebinit #Send us URL | 18:02 |
| igor_ | i purge bumble bee and nvidia | 18:02 |
| holstein | igor_: so, you need to revert whatever bumblebee sources you added, and install the stock ubuntu nvidia driver.. that will give you the config that is suggested, that i referenced | 18:03 |
| Jonii | Beldar: 14.04. It's not really version specific issue, more about, "How do I stream on Ubuntu". The only version specific problem is that ffmpeg is not in 14.04 libraries, so I had to use libav instead | 18:04 |
| Jonii | I don't know if I should be trying to get ffmpeg instead... I figured that it's better to try to use default libraries and all that | 18:05 |
| Beldar | Jonii, Thanks, it was just hard to teel if you were using ubuntu, that is al that is supported here, just wanted to make sure you were in the right place; you seemed unsure is all. ;) | 18:05 |
| te_ | Jonii: ffmpeg is not a library | 18:06 |
| Jonii | te_: see, i didn't know that | 18:06 |
| Beldar | tell* | 18:06 |
| subterfugium | I compiled ffmpeg for ubuntu 14.04 yesterday, works fine | 18:06 |
| subterfugium | https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu | 18:06 |
| Jonii | I'm just trying to browse through different scripts and trying to read through their 1000 page long man pages :/ | 18:06 |
| te_ | !ffmpeg | Jonii | 18:06 |
| te_ | !info ffmpeg | Jonii | 18:06 |
| ubottu | Jonii: Package ffmpeg does not exist in trusty | 18:06 |
| te_ | Jonii: What version of Ubuntu do you have? | 18:07 |
| Jonii | 14.4 | 18:07 |
| te_ | I am suprised that ffmpeg has been dropped. | 18:08 |
| Jonii | That's the reaction many people seemed to have in comments to scripts I read of | 18:08 |
| holstein | i havent had any trouble, or need to go out of repo yet | 18:08 |
| Jonii | But anyhow, since avconv seems to mostly work, I don't know if I should change from it | 18:08 |

| Progster | just installed ubuntu, and put in admin as sudoers, and somehow that blew out my previous sudoers, which means my account is no longer a sudoer. Is there a way I can reover? | 18:09 |
| te_ | Jonii: Maybe that ffmpeg will come to 14.04 later... (after or at the first point release). | 18:09 |
| Jonii | The problem I'm having might have something to do with audio sample rate or something. Basically, resulting video file runs too fast. | 18:09 |
| holstein | Progster: recovery console | 18:09 |
| Progster | k | 18:09 |
| Jonii | te_: all sources seem to indicate it's not coming back, since libav succeeded it | 18:10 |
| vik1231 | i am using ubuntu 12.04 , once i login i get back login screen again :( | 18:10 |
| te_ | Jonii: Oh I see. | 18:10 |
| holstein | vik1231: not following.. if you are looping back to the login screen, try another user, and you'll know if the issue is on your users' config | 18:10 |
| te_ | vik1231: again? | 18:11 |
| te_ | vik1231: You are in console mode? | 18:11 |

| TheSov | I have an ubuntu server with a new xeon core, how would I install the appropriate version of openssl that will utilize the on die AES encryption? | 18:13 |
| holstein | vik1231: then, its not an issue with the user config, likely.. have you tried booting an older kernel? have you tried a live CD to see that the hardware is "ok"? have you tried forcing the vesa driver? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1270209 ? | 18:13 |
| te_ | vik1231: Can you describe any events that may have led to this issue? | 18:13 |
| vik1231 | te_: actually its my friends system , i dont know what he did with it | 18:13 |
| te_ | vik1231: Anything in the log file that gives a clue? | 18:14 |
| holstein | vik1231: on my "friends" system, i would just backup, and reinstall.. could be anything,a nd for me, thats the shortest path to a fix | 18:14 |

| Jonii | https://gist.github.com/brodul/3178130 | 18:18 |
| Jonii | @ te_ | 18:18 |
| TheSov | is there a openssl package that enables the intel AES instruction set? | 18:19 |
| te_ | Jonii: http://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-howto/en/ch04.html | 18:19 |
| Jonii | And there are problems with that stream. It works almost completely, but I need to understand that script better to fix the problems in it :p | 18:19 |
| vik1231 | l3rg: i type the password and it gets back to login screen | 18:19 |
| holstein | vik1231: with the older kernel? | 18:19 |
| holstein | vik1231: how about with vesa driver? | 18:19 |
| vik1231 | te_: i am in commadline how do i pastebin it | 18:19 |
| Jonii | Which is the reason I'm struggling to read 6300 lines of man files | 18:19 |

| te_ | vik1231: tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit | 18:21 |

I'm using the Nvidia proprietary drivers (latest) and I've never managed to fix the vertical tearing issue.

| HelloWorld321 | RustyShackleford, yvnu: that's actually pretty reasonable. I'm surprised how many USB ports are flakey. | 18:53 |

After installing the ATI driver from the control panel, either fglrx or fglrx-updates, scrolling in Firefox becomes laggy. Scrolling in other applications, like XChat or Chromium, is not affected. I have a strong preference for Firefox, so I'd like to fix this issue. | 19:06 |

| a_ | is anyone here? | 19:09 |

| HickoryDickory | Bashing-om, I am using a R9 290 graphics card. I am running ubuntu 14.04 64 bit desktop. | 19:09 |
| OneWithWaves | Or, at least Ubuntu (advanced options) | 19:10 |
| Beldar | Bashing-om, Kinda strange there was a bug around precise times, but was fixed. | 19:10 |
| daftykins | a_: yes you can tell by all the speaking... if you have a question ask away on one line | 19:10 |
| Beldar | !nomodeset | OneWithWaves same thing basically | 19:10 |
| ubottu | OneWithWaves same thing basically: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 19:10 |
| Beldar | a_, Many post the issues for help. ;) | 19:10 |
| OneWithWaves | Excellent. Thanks everyone. | 19:11 |
| Beldar | OneWithWaves> Beldar and I are having issues with the same graphics chipset :) I have no problems, just a confirmation. | 19:12 |

| a_ | i have a dell inspiron n5110 laptop that comes with a sandy-bridge intel core i processor with integrated graphics card and a dedicated nvidia card, i was attempting to boot ubuntu 14.04 interminal mode, changing the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub to "text" or "acpi = force" or even "nomodeset" would result in excessive use of the dedicated nvidia card, any advice on what parameters work best for optimus technology? | 19:13 |
| Bashing-om | HickoryDickory: I guess we can look and see if there is even a driver loaded; pastebin -> sudo lshw -C display <- to see what we are working with. | 19:14 |
| daftykins | a_: you need to look into running nvidia-prime or bumblebee | 19:14 |

| OneWithWaves | Beldar, is doing a dist-upgrade a bad idea now then? | 19:21 |
| Beldar | OneWithWaves, be careful dist-upgrade has a specific meaning, and it is not a release upgrade. I never upgrade so I can't really say. | 19:22 |
| Bashing-om | HickoryDickory: Says " configuration: driver=fglrx_pci" you are running ATI card with a proprietary driver, how did you install the driver ? | 19:22 |
| OneWithWaves | Beldar, my mistake for not having a good concept of the difference between the terminal and GUI upgrade routes. I was planning on using the automatic GUI updater to upgrade to 14.04... I have several Xubuntu systems and this one has been out of commission for a while. | 19:23 |
| bekks | OneWithWaves: I'd use the terminal way, since X might be restarted, crashing the gui, crashing the update. | 19:23 |
| HickoryDickory | Bashing-om, I installed the driver using the control panel. I found the option in "Software & Updates" under the "Additional Drivers" tab. | 19:24 |

| fellayaboy | brb | 19:35 |
| bekks | wilhelm1: Ask an ubuntu support question and find out. | 19:35 |
| HickoryDickory | Bashing-om, deselecting smooth scrolling in Firefox removes the lagginess. Scrolling is now responsive. The Hardware Acceleration option has no perceptible effect on the scrolling. Of course, the scrolling is now choppy. I am wondering if and how I can make smooth scrolling work under Firefox while maintaining the responsiveness that Chromium and other applications have, all while using the ATI driver. | 19:36 |
| rww | HickoryDickory: Doubtful. fglrx is not as good at 2D acceleration as the open-source drivers, and it's closed-source so we can't improve it, so you get fun problems like that. | 19:37 |

| Beldar | kvess, Technically polling is not allowed here, might get some answer though. | 19:38 |

| Beldar | rww, looks that way to me, but I like seeing people get support in general. | 19:40 |
| rww | Beldar: If it had been "which of these brands should I go with" or "which chipset should I get", it would be. Asking if Ubuntu cares which brand he gets from a driver POV isn't really. | 19:40 |

| Jonii | avconv has many settings and 6300 lines long man page which I'm still in the process of reading.

| wilhelm1 | There is also python 2 on Ubuntu so it was a specific question. | 19:50 |

| Guest80578 | is it possible to install xcode in ubuntu?? | 20:50 |
| alsetema | hello | 20:52 |
| alsetema | is anyone willing to help me? | 20:52 |
| bekks | alsetema: you have to ask a support question first :) | 20:52 |

| sudormrf | Guest80578, someone was working on an OSX wine type emulator, but I don't think that thing was even close to ready last time I read about it. | 20:55 |
| alsetema | so, i have this printer the canon pixma mp140 and I want to install its drivers as its instructions say in this webpage http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-drivers-for-canon-printers-pixma-mp-series-on-ubuntu-14-04-trusty-tahr-linux-mint-17-qiana-and-their-derivative-systems/ but when I try to install the last command the sudo apt-get install (printer driver here) terminal says: | 20:55 |
| alsetema | Los siguientes paquetes tienen dependencias incumplidas: | 20:56 |
| alsetema | cnijfilter-mp140series:i386 : Depende: libtiff4:i386 (> 3.9.5-3~) pero no es instalable | 20:56 |
| alsetema | E: No se pudieron corregir los problemas, usted ha retenido paquetes rotos. | 20:56 |
| alsetema | well, it is in spanish but in conclusion it says those packages are broken | 20:56 |
| === Ilyes512 is now known as Ilyes512|Away | ||
| trndr | alsetma, I don't understand spanish, but it seems like the driver depends on libtiff4:i386 (> 3.9.5-3~), which probably can be installed with sudo apt-get install libtiff4:i386 | 20:59 |
| alsetema | let me try that wait a second | 21:00 |
| l3rg | alsetema: or you can do `sudo apt-get install (printer driver here) -y` | 21:01 |
| alsetema | trndr, it doesnt work it says the package doesnt have a candidate for installation | 21:02 |
| alsetema | or at least that says my bad translation of it | 21:02 |
| alsetema | l3rg, It doesnt work , the thing is it needs libtiff4:i386 to work and i cant manage a way to make it work | 21:03 |
| alsetema | i just can't make it run , It says the package is broken | 21:04 |
| alsetema | let me google translate that+ | 21:04 |
| trndr | alsetema, this might help http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1857025.html | 21:05 |
| alsetema | trndr, the terminal says this The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 21:05 |
| alsetema | cnijfilter-mp140series: i386: Depends: libtiff4: i386 (> 3.9.5-3 ~) but it is not installable | 21:05 |
| alsetema | E: They could not fix the problems, you have held broken packages. | 21:05 |
| === raja is now known as Guest15211 | ||
| l3rg | alsetema: on my box it says it is referred to by another package, is obsoleted or only available on from another source, so it likely exists, you just have to find out what source it's from | 21:07 |
| alsetema | l3rg, is that it? | 21:07 |
| alsetema | let me try | 21:08 |
| jhutchins | alsetema: Rather than having to translate, try something like LC_ALL=C apt-get -f install | 21:08 |
| jhutchins | alsetema: Do you have ppd's installed? Do you have global/universal enabled? | 21:09 |
| alsetema | jhutchins, | 21:09 |
| alsetema | i have | 21:09 |
| alsetema | but I would like to know a way of checking out | 21:09 |
| jhutchins | alsetema: Is cnjfilter-thingie a third party package? | 21:10 |
| alsetema | i'm not shure jhutchins but the ppa is this sudo add-apt-repository ppa:michael-gruz/canon-trunk but im quite a newby to ubuntu | 21:11 |
| alsetema | jhutchins, if you want to know the steps I am following are from this webpage http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-drivers-for-canon-printers-pixma-mp-series-on-ubuntu-14-04-trusty-tahr-linux-mint-17-qiana-and-their-derivative-systems/ | 21:12 |
| BananaManLinux | clonezilla is too hard to use, norton ftw. | 21:14 |
| BananaManLinux | and out! ;) | 21:14 |
| jhutchins | alsetema: Ok, I think the problem is probably that Cannon is only providing a driver for Debian, and possibly for an older release at that. | 21:14 |
| l3rg | alsetema:Y | 21:14 |
| jhutchins | alsetema: There is a native CUPS driver for it, use that with the gutenprint option and see if it works. | 21:15 |
| jhutchins | alsetema: It does for some people. | 21:15 |
| alsetema | jhutchins, let me try it | 21:15 |
| jhutchins | I don't see the source code from Cannon, so you can't recompile for your platform. | 21:16 |
| jhutchins | alsetema: That page says http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-drivers-for-canon-printers-pixma-mp-series-on-ubuntu-14-04-trusty-tahr-linux-mint-17-qiana-and-their-derivative-systems/ | 21:17 |
| jhutchins | Grr... | 21:17 |
| jhutchins | "The Canon drivers are available via Michael Gruz.s PPA, but unfortunately they require the libtiff4 library, which is not available via the default repositories of Ubuntu 14.04". It explains how to work around that. | 21:18 |

| minty | hey my resolution is messed up only one exits around 640 x 480 | 21:32 |
| justme123 | So I managed to successfully install Ubuntu server on server. There are still one issue to solve... | 21:33 |
| justme123 | I het a "this video mode is not supported" when grub is displayed. | 21:33 |
| justme123 | Actually geub is not displayed bit the error is. | 21:34 |
| minty | hey my resolution is messed up only one exits around 640 x 480 | 21:34 |
| jhutchins | minty: Which release are you on? What hardware do you have? | 21:34 |
| l3rg | justme123: is it in VirtualBox? | 21:34 |
| justme123 | By oressing rNdom keys on the keyboard it went on to boot into command prompt. I was able to sudo upgrade and update etc | 21:34 |
| minty | 14-04 | 21:34 |
| minty | ubuntu | 21:34 |
| minty | i have a mac book pro | 21:35 |
| jhutchins | !mac | 21:35 |
| ubottu | For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages | 21:35 |
| jhutchins | minty: You may not have the correct video driver for some reason. | 21:35 |
| justme123 | It is 14-04 that I installed straight onto the server. | 21:35 |
| minty | so how do i get the right one | 21:35 |
| daftykins | minty: download the ISO with 14.94, 64-bit mac in the name | 21:36 |
| daftykins | *14.04 | 21:36 |
| minty | wait so i redownload ubuntu ur saying | 21:36 |
| justme123 | I then went on to download and install desktop but the GUI caused the same error message. | 21:37 |
| justme123 | I am thinking to dona clean install but specifying video=257 for vesa 640x480 256 color so that perhpas I can at least see the geub options. | 21:38 |
| justme123 | grub* | 21:38 |
| justme123 | I dont know if it will work. | 21:38 |
| Joe_knock | Hello | 21:39 |
| Joe_knock | Hello | 21:39 |
| justme123 | I am also searching for a pci or pci-x video add-on video card and see if that will give better results. | 21:39 |
| justme123 | I wish there was a way to bypass grub from a clean install so that the server boots straight into command line | 21:40 |
| Bashing-om | justme123: One has to have a boot loader to load an operating system, grub is better than most. | 21:41 |
| minty | so what do i do to fix my screnn resolution | 21:41 |
| minty | only one exists | 21:41 |
| Joe_knock | I have 2 ubuntu 12.04s installed on 2 PCs. My internet is a bit slow, so updates can be a headache, does anyone know how I can download the update once only? | 21:42 |
| Bashing-om | Joe_knock: You have a support question ? | 21:42 |
| justme123 | I know, I am not saying dont use grub, I am saying let there be one option in grub wgich is the default Ubuntu but that the boot process runs straight through, selecting that default and giving me the command prompt. I need this because I cannot see grub due to a video issue so I cannot do a manual selection. | 21:42 |
| daftykins | Joe_knock: sure i do that all the time | 21:42 |
| Jordan_U | minty: Did you get any error messages at boot? Have you already installed Ubuntu or are you currently using the Ubuntu LiveCD/USB environment? | 21:42 |
| daftykins | Joe_knock: download and install on one, then scp /var/cache/apt/archives/ from the first to the second | 21:43 |
| minty | i am currently usimng the ubuntu no errors and boot | 21:43 |
| minty | just only one exsting resolution | 21:43 |
| Jordan_U | minty: Did you have the same resolution issue when you were installing? | 21:43 |
| minty | no | 21:43 |
| justme123 | I find solutions of editing grub but that is only once you are already in the system. | 21:43 |
| wilhelm1 | Hi | 21:44 |
| minty | i used to have errors and it would freeze which i fixed by reintsaling nvidia and bumble bee but know i have a resolution problem | 21:44 |
| justme123 | I tried to do a system reacue to get to a shell and I can get to the grub file, but I cannot edit and save it📄 | 21:44 |
| minty | everything else is fine | 21:44 |
| Joe_knock | daftykins: Do I just copy whatever is in that archive folder to the other PC or is there a more sophisticated way of doing things? I don't mind installing smaller updates, but it is the chromium, FF and x86 updates that are over 30MBs that trouble me | 21:44 |
| wilhelm1 | rc.local doesn't seem to be running | 21:44 |
| Jordan_U | justme123: If you don't press any key at the grub menu it will boot the default entry. | 21:45 |
| wilhelm1 | firewall is wide open and the rules are set to restore in rc.local | 21:45 |

| justme123 | Jordan_U really? After how long? | 21:45 |
| wilhelm1 | then there was an electrical storm | 21:46 |
| daftykins | Joe_knock: then on the other machine, SSH in and "sudo mv *.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/" then run your upgrade | 21:46 |
| Joe_knock | okay so I need to SSH into the other machine | 21:46 |
| Jordan_U | justme123: If you only have one OS installed, immediately. | 21:46 |
| Jordan_U | justme123: For changing the resolution of the grub menu, see http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Simple-configuration | 21:46 |
| Joe_knock | daftykins, | 21:46 |
| Joe_knock | daftykins: what does scp do as a command? | 21:47 |
| minty | so is anyone gonna help me fix my resolution prblem????? | 21:47 |
| wilhelm1 | support | 21:47 |
| Slamd64 | hello. I have strange issue with nautilus. it shows me menubar in old style instead of being in titlebar, doesn't matter if I change appearance to show menus in window title or unity bar. here's screenshot http://imgur.com/ayOD4FX | 21:47 |
| justme123 | Thanks for that link. Is there a way to edit grub before you log into the system? | 21:47 |
| Joe_knock | minty: what is the actual problem? more details help | 21:48 |
| wilhelm1 | firewall rules need to be able to be set | 21:48 |
| larrypg | well e | 21:48 |
| trndr | Joe_knock copy through ssh | 21:48 |
| wilhelm1 | support | 21:48 |
| justme123 | Or an alternative way like going through a rescue option. | 21:48 |
| Joe_knock | I think I could also just copy the files using usb and open them with software centre. | 21:48 |
| broeisi | hello... how can i check in ubunut 14.04 if someone is port scanning me? ... it used to be in /var/log/messages.. but this files doesn exist anymore | 21:49 |
| wilhelm1 | dell actually sold ubuntu? | 21:49 |
| Jordan_U | minty: How did you "re-install nvidia and bumblebee"? | 21:49 |
| minty | i purged | 21:49 |
| minty | and then installed | 21:49 |
| wilhelm1 | set the firewall rules | 21:49 |
| Joe_knock | wilhelm1: yes, they're 1 of the few PC companies that sell ubuntu-based laptops | 21:49 |
| minty | it was long process but got things fixed | 21:49 |
| minty | only one existing resolution | 21:49 |
| wilhelm1 | is it possible for the firewall rules to be added to rc.local? | 21:50 |
| l3rg | minty: did the link the bot give you not help? I am not familiar with a mac. Have you tried any xrandr commands? | 21:50 |
| minty | i have tried most of them they do not help | 21:50 |
| wilhelm1 | raytheon and northcom | 21:50 |
| Joe_knock | minty I'm confused, you're not being clear with what your problem is. | 21:51 |
| minty | i only have one resolution way too close | 21:51 |
| minty | cant run sum aplications cause they do not support this resolution | 21:51 |
| Joe_knock | minty is it 400x600 resolution? | 21:51 |
| wilhelm1 | this system is not secure | 21:51 |
| daftykins | Joe_knock: secure copy over SSH | 21:51 |
| minty | 640 x 480 | 21:51 |
| daftykins | Joe_knock: please use 'man scp' | 21:52 |
| Joe_knock | minty did you try adjusting resolution in settings manager? | 21:52 |

| Joe_knock | Deihmos, it's complex, but you could use a command that moves server-data. I think it's called rsync | 22:10 |

| k1l | Deihmos: use dd. then extend the partitions if the 2nd drive is bigger than the first | 22:11 |

| quadHelix | ataloss, did you install ubuntu or are you trying the live CD? | 23:08 |
| ataloss | I downloaded ubuntu 14.04 and attempted to install it. this is the result. I am not tech savvy so yeah | 23:09 |
| yolo` | does javascript and jquery works offline on ubuntu ?? | 23:11 |
| yolo` | where can i download the lib ? | 23:11 |
| aarobc | yolo`: um yeah... | 23:11 |
| quadHelix | ataloss, if you have not installed ubuntu previously, your best bet will most likely be to "try Ubuntu" and verify that all your hardware works | 23:11 |
| yolo` | um yeah ? | 23:11 |
| yolo` | aarobc, ? | 23:12 |

| trndr | ataloss, did you download a iso and burn it to a cd? | 23:14 |
| ataloss | nope. i just downloaded it, unzipped it, and attempted an install that way. | 23:15 |
| ataloss | guess i need to burn it to a disc first, huh? | 23:15 |
| trndr | ataloss, then this will help: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/install-ubuntu-desktop | 23:15 |

| daftykins | ataloss: it sounds like you used WUBI...? you don't unzip ISO's, you either burn them to DVD or put them on a USB flash drive and boot from them | 23:21 |
| ataloss | i did use wubi. obviously i have no idea what i'm doing. so should i just transfer the download .zip file to a usb drive? | 23:23 |
| daftykins | ataloss: ubuntu doesn't come in a .zip, it's just that windows archive programs like 7zip, winzip, winrar can extract .ISO images | 23:24 |
| daftykins | ataloss: yep if i were you i would plug in an empty flash drive and download Universal USB Installer from www.pendrivelinux.com | 23:24 |
| ataloss | gotcha. sorry i'm so ignorant to all of this, but i really appreciate all of the help. | 23:24 |
| daftykins | ataloss: don't worry, it's exactly what we're here for :) | 23:25 |
| TJ- | ataloss: See the "Easy ways to switch" ... "From Windows" section of this page http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop | 23:25 |

| mitas | I tried to clone my home partition with a sudo cp -Rp /home/* /home2. No problems there, but when editing fstab to mount the new partition as /home, I can start my desktop, but none of the programs requiring access to my homedrive (i.e. firefox) will start. | 23:26 |
| ataloss | i have a 1tb external hd with 17gb empty space left, would i be able to use that? | 23:26 |
| daftykins | mitas: check permissions | 23:27 |
| cyborgcygnus | qin, It's for my sister, but no. She has her own account though & I prefer her to be able to have her own. SHe tends to log onto the pc when I'm not home which creates armageddon when she's not supposed to be on & my mother catches her. | 23:27 |
| daftykins | ataloss: that's a bit too tight really | 23:27 |
| mitas | daftykins, copying with the -p flag should copy both ownership and permissions, or am I missing something important here? | 23:27 |
| Bashing-om | ataloss: 17 gigs will do for a starter, but will get tight .. see 30 gigs most recommneded. | 23:27 |
| daftykins | mitas: 'should' being the operative word :) | 23:27 |
| daftykins | ataloss: what i would do if i were you, is just boot into the live session from the USB once it's made up - and see if all your hardware works (wireless networking being the main sticking point if it's a laptop etc) | 23:28 |
| trndr | ataloss, if you want it to be the install drive, then yes, but you might whatch out to make sure to partition the drive before | 23:28 |
| mitas | daftykins, so does that mean that this flag does not work as I think it does. The manpage for cp claims that all attributes and rights will be copied as well. | 23:29 |
| ataloss | ok. I have to admit I'm feeling a little bit overwhelmed, but I believe I have somewhat of an understanding on what to do. Thanks again everyone for all of the help. Asta | 23:30 |

| trndr | ataloss, just to check we are on the same page, what install/try instructions are you using? | 23:31 |
| Bashing-om | trndr: ataloss has wonderon on his (sic) merry way. | 23:32 |
| xxxDSSxxx | is there any good WYSIWYG HTML- editor in unbuntu repository? | 23:33 |
| xxxDSSxxx | or RDF-editor, like Protege? | 23:34 |
| trndr | Bashing-om, saw that after I hit enter | 23:34 |
| mitas | daftykins, permissions seem to be in order, yet upons starting firefox, I get this error message: "Can't create de Gnome-shortcuts folder '/home/$USER/.gnome2/accels' : Access denied... | 23:34 |
| mitas | daftykins, "de" should have been "the" here | 23:35 |
| daftykins | mitas: can you pastebin your fstab along with the output of "ls -al /" ? | 23:38 |
| mitas | daftykins, what's more, even after swapping both partition names in /etc/fstab again (home <=> home2) I still get the same error message. This is on a new Trusty 64 bits install, that was unable to find my LVM pv "Home-Home_Raid1" during install. I removed the pv, and the vg and recreated them after installation. | 23:39 |
| mitas | daftykins, of what directory do you want the ls -al? , my /home drive? | 23:40 |
| cyborgcygnus | I keep getting "Requires installation of untrusted packages" when installing software from the ubuntu software centre & when I click the ok or repair option it just keeps popping back up without installing the missing stuff. I just install the missing stuff from the terminal | 23:40 |
| daftykins | mitas: my command was complete: "ls -al /" | 23:40 |
| daftykins | mitas: oh i have no experience with LVM | 23:40 |
| daftykins | cyborgcygnus: do you get any errors when running "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get -f install" in a terminal? | 23:41 |
| cyborgcygnus | daftykins, yes | 23:41 |
| daftykins | cyborgcygnus: can you pastebin? :) | 23:42 |
| cyborgcygnus | fo shizzle just give me a sec | 23:42 |
| mitas | daftykins, sorry, missed that part..., Hmm, I can't fire up a browser here (neither firefox or chrome will start ), so I can't use pastebin... | 23:42 |
| cyborgcygnus | daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7499490/ | 23:43 |
| mitas | daftykins, I know it's normally not done, but could I please start a PM with you and paste the output there? Unless you know a web browser that does not require write access to my home drive, that is... | 23:44 |
| daftykins | mitas: install pastebinit, the CLI app, then pipe it to pastebinit | 23:44 |
| daftykins | e.g. "pastebinit /etc/fstab" and "ls -al / | pastebinit" | 23:44 |
| mitas | daftykins, will do, just a moment. | 23:44 |
| daftykins | cyborgcygnus: neither of those look like legitimate repos | 23:45 |
| mitas | daftykins, , thanks for your help, these are the pastebins of /etc/fstab and ls -la / respectively: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7499498/ , http://paste.ubuntu.com/7499503/ | 23:47 |
| mitas | daftykins, /home22 was a typo, but that was easily corrected. | 23:50 |
| javanic | hello all | 23:52 |
| mitas | daftykins, Home-Home_Raid1 is a LVM logical volume containing part(propery striped of course) of a RAID1 array /dev/md0 | 23:53 |
| TJ- | mitas: Can you pastebin "lsblk" ? | 23:55 |
| === owner_ is now known as Guest8928 | ||
| daftykins | mitas: ok, permissions of the root /home folder looks fine, unfortunately i don't understand LVM to understand if anything's going on with your fstab | 23:55 |
| mitas | TJ, sure | 23:55 |
| * nevyn understands lvm | 23:55 | |
| mitas | TJ, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7499526/ | 23:56 |
| javanic | any installation pros here? | 23:57 |
| TJ- | mitas: That looks strange; it doesn't show the mountpoint for / ... is this the bare-metal running system, or from a liveISO recovery session? | 23:58 |
| daftykins | javanic: just ask | 23:58 |
| mitas | TJ, it's a live system | 23:58 |
| javanic | I installed 14.04 on a new samsung laptop.. ran fine, came back and all i had was a black screen ( this is a couple of days later) won't even boot from dvd now | 23:59 |
| javanic | not sure if it's something with software, in bios or the hardware | 23:59 |
| mitas | TJ, SSD_Statisch-Root (dm-5) 252:5 0 28G 0 lvm <= this is mounted as / | 23:59 |
| nevyn | how do I set skype to use a non-default audiohow do I configure pulseaudio to send skype call audio to my usbt headset but ring on spethe defautlcurrent 'main' pa output? | 23:59 |
| TJ- | mitas: OK, so the "/etc/fstab" you showed is from the failed environment... that explains the missing parts of the "lsblk" output :) | 23:59 |
