nith1210hicap: Is it a desktop ubuntu installation?00:00
hicapyes00:00
nith1210hicap: what does "echo $TERM"00:01
nith1210hicap: give you?00:01
nith1210hicap: sorry, echo $SHELL00:01
hicap echo $SHELL00:02
hicap/bin/bash00:02
nith1210hicap: so here's what I think is happening. I think the executable is trying to run bash internally and failing.00:02
nith1210hicap: type "not_a_command" into the terminal00:02
nith1210hicap: the error looks different than yours00:03

nith1210hicap: What I can tell you is that a lot of work has gone into running 32-bit applications. You can, in fact, install 32-bit apps from the repository by appending :i386 to the package name00:03
nith1210hicap: right, notice that your original error was prefixed with "bash: "00:03

rio_zentaIf I install ubuntu desktop and remove the GUI and other non-essentials, will I be able to move into ubuntu server?00:05
nith1210!multiarch | hicap00:05
nith1210wow, this isn't working for me00:05
hicapnith1210 so you don't think that makes sense?00:05
nith1210hicap: That thread indicates that dependancies for the 32-bit java they were running were missing (you still need to install dependencies)00:05
zykotick9nith1210: fyi, i never found a multiarch factoid from ubottu...  i have looked a couple of times.00:06
nith1210hicap: ia32-libs is no longer the way in 14.04, you install the package with the :i386 suffix00:06
hicapnith1210 I am open to suggestions I am so stuck00:06
hicapI am just lost00:06
koellfucking firefox crashes 100 times a day just browsing the web -.-00:07
khdsomeone wanna catck me up on the problem?00:07
hicapkhd is that to me?00:07
nith1210hicap: you may be missing a dependency which you need to install but you'll have to read the manual for that installer to figure out what y'ure missing00:07

apb1963Does anyone have a list of dirs/files to backup and/or exclude from backup they don't mind sharing?  For example I don't think I want /etc/mtab* or /var/run but I do want /etc/passwd & /etc/shadow.  I've finally decided to use BackInTime which is a GUI front end for rsync, and although it comes preconfigured with some exclusions, I've found it doesn't have a complete list.00:11
rio_zentaAny reasons why any of you think it can't be done?00:11
rio_zentaapb1963: what is the purpose of your backup?00:12
apb1963rio_zenta: To not lose data mostly...00:12
bish0p_My Skype doesn't recognize my webcam on Ubuntu 12.4, but other applications do. How can I fix this?00:13
rio_zentaapb1963: Then do a manual backup of your user-data only. You could keep 1 rsync of everything except for installs and your user-data and keep your user-data in a separate place.00:13
bmukI would like to automatically sync files/settings/etc from my desktop (ubuntu 14.04) to my phone (nexus 5, cataclysm). What are my options?00:15
nith1210!multiarch is a new approach to running programs compiled for one architecture on another. This allows you to run 32-bit applications on 64-bit systems (i386 <--> amd64). For more information, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiArch and/or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit00:15
nith1210zykotick9: Assuming I haven't botched it, that should solve that longer term (after op approval).00:16
apb1963rio_zenta: I guess I didn't really understand your question... or you didn't understand my answer... or I don't understand YOUR answer....  I want to include anything and everything that has changed, that I can't recover simply by reinstalling.  Such as /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow and anything else.00:16
rio_zentasounds like a mission, bmuk. Perhaps you can email the stuff to yourself.00:16

zykotick9nith1210: TBO, i really don'00:16
zykotick9t know how factoid get added/removed.00:16
nith1210zykotick9: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins#Adding_a_factoid00:17
SchrodingersScatbmuk: owncloud, syncthing and btsync can sync files between computer and phone..00:17
bmukI'll check out owncloud, thanks00:17
rio_zentaapb1963: That is what rsync will take care of. You backup everything excluding the install files. You can also exclude your user-data and keep it separate. The reason why I say this is for "separation of concerns". You want your user data to not be locked in to a system backup.00:18
internetisntworkI've got questions, mind if I ask them?00:18
rio_zentaSchrodingersScat: Does owncloud support ubuntu file syncing?00:18
nith1210!ask | internetisntwork00:18
ubottuinternetisntwork: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience00:18
apb1963rio_zenta: So, how do I exclude the install files?  What dir are they in?00:18
rio_zentainternetisntwork: Don't ask to ask, just ask :-)00:19
zykotick9nith1210: thanks, i don't ever recall seeing that page before ;)00:19
rio_zentaapb1963 let me consult with some of my previous info to tell you what I was told about doing an rysnc for my server backup.00:19
internetisntworkInternet suddenly went full retard after I rebooted.  14.04, no updating involved, nothing.00:19
internetisntworketh0's still alive but wired won't work.00:20
rio_zentainternetisntwork: Can you or do you know how to access logs?00:20
internetisntworkNetworks are detected by nm but can't be connected to.00:20
internetisntworkI'll learn if I don't know!00:20
SchrodingersScatrio_zenta, bmuk : not sure if the owncloud phone app will auto sync a folder actually.. but you would have access to the files00:21
daftykinsalive in what way?00:21
internetisntworkIt shows on ifconfig00:21
apb1963I love it when my IRC client crashes every 5 minutes whether I want it to or not00:21
apb1963rio_zenta: OK, thank you00:21
internetisntworkOh, also, the modules indicated by lspci -nn for my hardware aren't found.00:22
daftykinsinternetisntwork: what kind of computer? laptop?00:22
internetisntworkGateway w340ui laptop00:23
internetisntworkResults of lspci -nn:00:23
daftykinsinternetisntwork: but you're saying it's worked fine until now?00:24
internetisntworkYeah, perfectly.00:24
daftykinsinternetisntwork: have you tried to statically address the interface to see it'll still work?00:24
internetisntworkNo, I've not.00:25
daftykinsdo you know your router's IP?00:25
internetisntworkI can find it.00:25
rio_zentaapb1963: I currently don't have access to my previous info, but I can check for you. I would recommend you possibly ask the more advanced users in #ubuntu-server concerning which folders to leave out when using rsync, as that is what I did.00:25
apb1963rio_zenta: 'k.  Thank you :)00:26
skinuxDoes Ubuntu keep many previous versions of hard disk in encrypted state?00:26
rio_zentaskinux, what do you mean encrypted state?00:26
hicapthis was the answer!  www.hellotecho.com/ubuntu-extracting-sfx-no-such-file-or-directory00:26
SchrodingersScatSiebjee: what do you mean previous versions of hard disk?00:26

pngo<internetisntwork> try: dhclient eth000:26
apb1963rio_zenta: I started googling after I asked the question.  Found a list.  It doesn't look complete, but it's a heck of a start.00:27
=== brian is now known as Guest32239
skinuxWhen you logout hard disk is encrypted and user password (obtained during login) is required to decrypt.00:27
rio_zentaapb1963 for me it was 3 folders I excluded, then again, there are major differences between the packages on desktop vs. server00:27
rio_zentaskinux, AFAIK it isn't encrypted. You can possibly run a USB linux and access the files. There is an option at install to make it encrypted though.00:28
daftykinsinternetisntwork: so you should have two interfaces from 'ifconfig -a' ?00:28
pngo<internetisntwork> or: dhclient -v eth000:28
internetisntworkI do, I have an eth0 and a wlan0 along with the loopback00:29
daftykinsinternetisntwork: excellent, so you could try what pngo just suggested00:30
internetisntworkI am right now00:30
internetisntworkWhat should I report; it's still running.00:30
gryk1l or anyone: does step '4' mean 'apt-get upgrade' or something else? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/+bug/259867/comments/2200:30
ubottuLaunchpad bug 259867 in pam (Ubuntu) "[PAM] Unable to login: Cannot make/remove an entry for the specified session" [Undecided,Fix released]00:30
gryand what do I do about this? https://pastee.org/985bq00:31
rio_zentainternetisntwork: First get into router settings and test the connection itself.00:31
internetisntworkThe connection itself is functional; I'm on it right now via a different machine.00:31
internetisntworkDid I comprehend you correctly?00:31
daftykinsrio_zenta: come now, he's clearly online00:31
internetisntworkI could be on a different connection, of course. :P00:32
rio_zentadaftykins: I couldn't assume that he was using the same connection. Clearly he is though.00:32
daftykinsheh00:32
grymm, 'apt-get dist-upgrade" appears to be picking those up, will try it00:33
rio_zentainternetisntwork: There is 1 thing you "could" try. Have you tried restarting your machine?00:33
daftykinsinternetisntwork: so nothing obvious happening from the dhclient command is it?00:33
internetisntworkThe intervals (so far) that DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 are {3,6,13,11,15,11,7,12,21,20,21,17,11,9,13,13,8,12...00:33
daftykinssounds like it's not communicating at all then00:33
internetisntworkIt's trying, not sure if anything's actually happening00:33
internetisntworkYeah.00:33
internetisntworkIf this is a ping, there's no response.00:33
skinuxYes, at install I chose to use encryption.00:34
internetisntworkShould I pause the command and run it on wlan0?00:34
rio_zentaskinux, then the drive should be encrypted. As to what type of encryption, it could possibly be username/password encryption00:34
internetisntworkI mean, I've got no wlan functional in the hardware as much as I understand, but...00:34
internetisntworkIt just ented, no DHCPOFFERS recieved; no working leases in persistent database - sleeping00:35
daftykinsinternetisntwork: no, you'd have to be associated to a wireless network for DHCP to be a possibility00:35
internetisntwork*ended00:35
apb1963rio_zenta: I think I may want to exclude things like /bin /usr/bin /lib and so on.... if something gets corrupted I suppose I can reinstall from a package00:35
pngo<internetisntwork>: can you: ifconfig eth000:35
internetisntworksure00:35
internetisntworkDo you want it all?00:36
internetisntworkIt'll take a bit of typing00:36
pngoyes00:36
daftykinsthat seems like a waste of time to me00:36
internetisntworkLink encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:03:25:41:f4:cb00:36
rio_zentaapb1963 I also recall what I think is "proc" that can be excluded. Let me just check what is inside there.00:36
internetisntworkinet6 addr: fe80::203:25ff:fe41:f4cb/64 Scope:Link00:37
daftykins /proc is the kernel00:37

skinuxOh...I mean encrypted archives, not versions of software.00:38
rio_zentaFollow the instructions from a thread deemed trustworthy (like an ubuntu guide on ubuntu.com or along those lines) @ apb196300:39
internetisntworkI'm going to make gravy, but I'll keep tabs on the IRC00:39
rio_zentaFollow the instructions from a thread deemed trustworthy (like an ubuntu guide on ubuntu.com or along those lines) @ apb196300:40
skinuxI'm talking about files stored at /home/.ecryptfs/<user>/.Private/00:40
rio_zentaskinux I'm not familiar with that stuff, sorry.00:41
apb1963rio_zenta: yeah, looking at various threads...  everybody has "additional" files.00:41
SchrodingersScatskinux: afaik that doesn't copy anything, just encrypts it for you, if you deleted a file from the folder then it would be gone00:41
rio_zentaarchives would quickly fill up a system if they're backing up, unless it is smart enough to backup updates only.00:42
internetisntworkRight now, nm isn't detecting anything - a new development00:43
pngo<internetisntwork>: try this: dhclient -v -4 eth000:43
internetisntworkokay00:43
internetisntworkdhclient -v eth0 didn't work just now, but I'll run it with that option also00:44
internetisntworkIt doesn't look like it's getting anything.00:44
internetisntworkAlso, I've removed the ethernet cable from the machine.00:44
pngobut try with -400:45
skinuxWell, there are probably 50 generated files (may be directories) inside of /.ecryptfs/<user>?/.Private/00:45
internetisntworkIam00:45
internetisntworkIt's using another xid but still doesn't look very functional.00:45
internetisntworkMay I ask what that option does?00:46
pngoit uses ipv4 instead of ipv600:46
internetisntworkAh.00:46
internetisntworkOkay, it's about to finish, with no response from the (router?)00:47
SchrodingersScatskinux: generated?  Yeah, when you put a file into /home/user/Private then the system encrypts it in the .Private00:47

pngoand than sudo ifconfig eth0 up00:48
Temperdoes anyone have an example of setting up Intel's 7260 mpcie 802.11ac card in AP/Managed mode?00:48

Viking667hi all, now I'm having an issue on a 14.04-64 machine, with VLC. It can't play a particular blu-ray movie stream from MakeMKV, claiming Codec H264-MPEG4 (part 10) isn't supported.00:49
Viking667so. Where do I look to fix THIS problem?00:49
SchrodingersScatskinux: well, it's stuff you decided was worth encrypting, not sure why this seems impressive?00:50
pngostill nothing?00:51
daftykinsViking667: i'm not sure that encrypted bluray content through makemkv really constitutes a topic to be supported here00:51

internetisntworkAny theories as to what's going on behind the broken networking?  What mystifies me is no packages were modified or updated - all that happened was the machine was rebooted.  Makes me think either config issues or hardware problems.00:56
Dark_Cookiealguem do brasil?00:57
daftykinsinternetisntwork: this is going to sound ridiculous, but power off, disconnect the mains power and the battery, then put the battery back in and start up again00:57

internetisntworkI'll reboot it and shoot photos.01:03
BeldarDark_Cookie, Not to me the channel is all. I would try #android and ##linux as well, maybe even #ubuntu-touch01:03
daftykinsyeah01:03
internetisntworkIDK if it's related, but I'd had a humungous kernal panic issue about a month ago.01:04
internetisntwork*spelling01:04
nerdys0uthinternetisntwork: try, in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf  setting  [ifupdown] managed=false01:04
internetisntworkI'd already changed that to true01:04
Dark_CookieBeldar.. ok.. I am a new user in this chat.. what is the objetive?01:05
BeldarDark_Cookie, This is ubuntu-support, android sdk is not really a ubuntu issue, however if someone here knows it you may get help. I have rarely see this discussed here, the objective is getting you the right help. ;)01:07
Beldarseen*01:07
Dark_CookieBeldar ok.. thanks..01:08
internetisntworknerdys0uth: I'd set that to true before I entered the IRC01:08

Beldareskrima, If you want learn to swim you have to hit the pool. ;)01:15
eskrimabeldar daftyking how exactly i do a back up on the ubuntu 12.10... not very experienced... can you guys help please..like the steps i should take.. :)01:16
Beldar!backup | eskrima01:16
ubottueskrima: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning01:16
daftykinseskrima: is ubuntu the only OS your computer has?01:17
eskrimabeldar exactly thats what im doing. but currently im using my husbands laptop and dont want to mess it up. i have my own to play arround.01:17
eskrimabeldar i want to be sure what im doing with his. so not to mess itup :)01:17
Macerwhat th ehell01:17
eskrimadaftykins yesss01:17
Macerwhen i drag an icon on the left in the dock it won't release01:17
Macersomething is wrong with the dock01:18
eskrimabeldar will follow the links as soon as i get out of here01:18
daftykinseskrima: can you run a command in the terminal application then post its' output by copying and pasting it to paste.ubuntu.com ? it'll give you a link to share here. the command is "sudo fdisk -l"01:18
eskrimaokkk01:19
Macerok what is going on here :(01:19
Macerthe dock is just broken now01:19
Douglas.01:19
Beldareskrima, Myself if I had the feeling that was possible I would let them do it. I'm just noticing you're asking really broad unanswerable question as is and want the final answer.01:19
Macerhow do i delete the dock config?01:19
arthurfiggiseskrima: it doesn't necessarily have to be a complicated process either, it depends on what kind of backup you need...i just copy my entire home directory onto an external usb drive once a week, but that's all i need :)01:19
daftykinsMacer: i'm sorry to hear you're being surprised, but please don't let it make you press enter so much.01:19
Macerdaftykins: heh. sorry. but something broke somewhere. compiz seems broken. i don't get the menu on the top anymore either. it's like it's completely borked01:19
Macerugh i'll just rm the user and home dir and start over :/01:20
eskrimabeldar sorry what you mean by possible..to upgrade as the upgrade box popped up on  my screen?01:20
eskrimahttp://paste.ubuntu.com/7513135/01:22
eskrimaarthurfiggs ok.01:22
daftykinsah-ha, GPT01:23
eskrimabeldar my box title says "check new realease gtk"01:23
daftykinseskrima: could you do the same with 'mount' also?01:23
Beldareskrima, upgrades do brick computers especially if the user is inexperienced. This is exacerbated by not being backed up.01:23

OwnixHello everyone. I have tried Lubuntu, XBMCBuntu, Mint 16 and now Ubuntu and my PC will not shutdown fully on any of these distrobutions.01:24
guest2859275It has 2GB RAM and an Intel Celeron M (900MHz) CPU01:24
eskrimaokkk01:24
OwnixShutdown hangs on the logo of each distrobution01:24

zykotick9Ownix: notice, they're all ubuntu based01:24
daftykinsguest2859275: Lubuntu would be the lightest, followed by Xubuntu01:25
Beldareskrima, To upgrade 12.10 you have to go through another end of life release, honestly I would fresh install. This upgrade will take a long time and have a higher chance of failing.01:25
Ownixzykotick9: I know. I was just hoping id hit one that works out of the box for me.01:25
BeldarI would just install 14.04 eskrima01:25
eskrimaoh ok.... so i have to go to the website to find the install copy release of my liking (number i mean)? beldar01:26
OwnixI have no idea how to troubleshoot a failure to shutdown issue.01:26
eskrimadaftykins http://paste.ubuntu.com/7513142/01:26
Beldareskrima, NOt sure what you like I an=m just suggesting install 14.04 it is a long term release 5 years support.01:27
Beldaram*01:27
eskrimabeldar btw when i back up all my files.. will this also save all my other files in my documents pictures and the rest?01:27
guest2859275daftykins: danke01:27
Artemis3what is your question guest2859275 ?01:27
eskrimabeldar nice ok01:27
daftykinseskrima: ok your system only has one partition, you'll need to backup your /home folder by plugging in an external hard disk, if you have one?01:28
eskrimabeldar so where do i get a 14.04 installation ? on the ubuntu website? and how do i install.... should i download the installation and burn it to the disc and than do it by the disc?01:28
daftykinseskrima: assuming you have data you want to keep01:28
Beldareskrima, Depends on how you do it, honestly I feel really uncomfortable in this. I learned all this by doing the duty on computers I had no attachment to, a practice setup.01:28
Macerah well. i just wiped the home dir. no idea what broke there :/01:29
eskrimadaftykins no...... but i can do a dvd burn for back up. ?? i have 8 gb of usb,, will that help or it goes by the memory gb for how many i have saved files in the laptop?01:29
Macerseems to be some broken config01:29
daftykinseskrima: writing DVDs will be fine if you don't have too much data, you may also want to use a DVD or your USB flash drive to install 14.04 once you download it from ubuntu.com to reinstall the laptop01:30
daftykinserr, assuming it's a laptop i mean01:31

eskrimadaftykins what means that the guy that neeeds help said that got hacked? what means?01:36

BeldarGuyThatNeedsHelp, There are channel norms, you are not within them.01:36
GuyThatNeedsHelpBeldar that was rude of you01:37
gry-it's okay, you didn't get hacked, you don't need to be rude - watch what ubottu said about netflix01:37
gry-if you don't get it working just ask a slightly more specific question and someone would be with you soon01:38
eskrimadaftykins ok will go read how to back up the system and will install the 14.04.. on more quest.. im used with the xp how to work. so for linux ubuntu, is it also a procedure to install/uninstall os the same? like you uninstall one os and start installin a new one?01:40
zykotick9eskrima: you don't really "uninstall" an OS, you just install the new one overtop...01:41
gry-or use dual boot01:41
daftykinseskrima: during the installation, a screen will ask you what you want to do with the hard disk. once you know all your data is safe, you can select to erase the entire disk and use it all01:41
eskrimaokkk got it01:42
daftykinseskrima: however, you will be in a live session at this point (i recommend you select to try the new version before installing) so make sure everything you need works (e.g. you can get online, if you use Wifi etc)01:42
eskrimaand i dont like dual boot.... not for now01:42

Beldarjchaike, gnome shell or the fallback?01:54

Beldarjchaike, The exstensions are for the gnome shell01:54

Macerwow... swapping from a normal to encrypted home dir seems like a handful04:22
Macerisn't there some frontend that does this all for you? :)04:22
holsteinMacer: the installer does al that for you, but you have to know back then.. its switching after the fact that is challenging04:23
Macerholstein: yeah but the installer only does it for users you add at the time04:23
Macerbut it does seem that you can simply create a new user with a flag04:24
Macerthat does it all for you so that may work out04:24
Macersudo adduser --home /home/user --ingroup admin --encrypt-home user <- i guess adduser has a flag for it04:24
holsteinMacer: i thought there was an option in the GUI.. but, i rarely want to trade the hit in performance for encryption, personally04:25
Macerit isn't that serious so long as your cpu supports the aesni stuff04:26
Maceri'm on this whole encryption thing to see how difficult it would be to encrypt everything04:27
Macerit is actually a total pain heh04:27

Jeeves_MossI'm having some serious issues with my wvdial.conf file.  What are the steps to get to the AT+CGDCONF line?04:29
zykotick9Macer: if you're interested in security, i'd strong suggest full disk encryption, using LUKS - over "home folder encryption".  YMMV.04:29
Maceri was hoping ubuntu phones would use some trimmed down version of thunderbird with enigmail04:29
Macerzykotick9: i considered that but my issue is the mounting of 2 different partitions at boot04:29
Maceron 2 different hard drives04:29
Macerthis laptop has 2 SSDs in it04:29
Maceri'm sure it's possible but i'd have to read up on it04:30
zykotick9Macer: it's possible... but i haven't personally had to use crypttab yet... i do have a script to mount my encrypted external drive.04:30
Maceri'm not sure if anything supports unlocking the boot drive then mounting another partition using 1 common passphrase04:30

Macerbut thanks tho.. i'll look into luks and see if it is a viable option04:31

Maceri don't hibernate my system04:32

Maceri'll just put it to sleep if anything.. otherwise i'll shut it down04:32

rorI have tried a lot of methods but cant get this done. I am trying to install rvm on 12.04 ubuntu.

_abc_Boot time window manager frequently (50% of the time) starts with no window decorations on windows.10:45
Seveas_abc_: 10.04 is now four years old. Time to upgrade.10:45
_abc_Any ideas where to look? This is lts 10.04 which is distributed with linuxcnc so upgrade options are VERY limited10:45
lonsomehell1I have Ubuntu 14.04 installed in a GPT partition table i have a separate boot partition and I want to install windows 8.1 . Should i add a new EFI partition ?10:45
Seveas_abc_: well, it's out of support by now, so you're out of luck.10:45
_abc_As in, none. Therefore, any suggestions to upgrade the ubuntu, itself, will have to be ignored. So I appeal to those who _know_ how to tweak options in 10.04 to make the problems less obvious.10:46
Seveas_abc_: 10.04 is out of support, so time to go back to linuxcnc for suport.10:46
|\nsince 14.04 i have no way to use my discrete graphics with optimus, bumblebee stopped working and nvidia-prime acts like this guy describes http://askubuntu.com/questions/457446/ubuntu-14-04-nvidia-prime-is-it-supported-no (also got the same 540M here) and i confirm that nothing helps, what are my options? and/or any hints appreciated10:46

lonsomehell1I have Ubuntu 14.04 installed in a GPT partition table i have a separate boot partition and I want to install windows 8.1 . Should i add a new EFI partition (fat 32 with boot flag )?10:49
|\nSeveas, otherwise i wouldn't come, i tried various things, my own assumptions and stuff for 5 hours in a row =) but thank you for your attention to the problem10:50
ikonialonsomehell1: are you using an EFI bootloader ?10:50
lonsomehell1I am using grub210:50
Seveas|\n: maybe try the #bumblebee channel if nobody here can offer any help10:50
ikonialonsomehell1: are you using an EFI boot pocess though ? or legacy bios configuration ?10:51
lonsomehell1I don't know sorry10:51
ikonialonsomehell1: if you don't know - why are you asking if you should create an EFI partition ?10:51
lonsomehell1I installed windows 8.1 and it created a EFI partition10:52
ikonialonsomehell1: look in your bios config/motherboard documentation and confirm if you are using an EFI boot process or not10:52
lonsomehell1ok10:52
ikonialonsomehell1: that's going to be key10:52
theadminlonsomehell1: Windows 8.1 creates a boot partition regardless of whether you use EFI or legacy, it needs that so that you may encrypt the system drive easily10:53
|\nSeveas, now it is recommended to use nvidia-prime scheme, so at the current point my difficults are related to this, however, thank you, i will consider getting back to my attempts to make bumblebee working :/10:53

JerryPHello, I am installing Ubuntu next to Win8.0. I shrank the disk and now have the Unallocated space. I believe I read that you should partition it in windows to avoid potential booting issues from installing linux. Do you believe this to be true? Do I just simply create a new simple volume or any other steps that I should take? Thanks!11:07
_abc_nodedfree: /usr/bin/php5 /var/www/cron.php11:08
_abc_nodedfree: this will give an error message. If not, echo $? immediately after it11:08
nodedfree_abc_, also, new line. no result11:08
theadminJerryP: You don't need to partition in Windows, partitioning in the Ubuntu installer makes a lot more sense11:08
_abc_nodedfree: output of echo $? is?11:08
nodedfree011:08
_abc_Okay so the command DID run ok11:08
JerryPtheadmin, you havent heard of anyone having booting issues doing it that way? I thought I read somewhere that i could corrupt the windows booter, but I can't find where I ran that11:08
_abc_nodedfree: How did you decide it did not?11:09

jribedux: it's not supported anymore, you should upgrade12:27
eduxjrib, i know, but i like its simplicity,it just works,and it was slim..every release seems to be getting heavier for laptops. especially mine,who has already some years12:28
jribedux: but you're not getting security updates; it's not good to run an OS not getting support12:28
Slartedux: I seem to recall that you had to install the cpu governor stuff manually before it started working.. or perhaps it was that you had to install the tools to _change_ the governor.. not 100% sure12:29
eduxSlart,  i think it was something about a utility..a small app..aah, rcconfig or something, in the older releases, btu im not sure anymore12:30
eduxjrib, i know, it will be mostly for offline use. So im okay with that. thanks12:31
jribedux: imo, your priority should be to upgrade to a supported release.  If performance is really a concern (have you tried?), then consider using lubuntu-desktop12:31

Diplomati cant really copy and paste because im using ipmi13:43
Diplomati can make a picture13:43
Diplomatone moment13:43
IdleOneDiplomat: you can use the pastebinit package13:44
GlitchyGadgetI have a strange issue myself, but it's not a serious one, so it can wait.13:44
GlitchyGadgetI just got my wireless bug resolved a few hours ago, so I know how frustrating it can be13:44
MonkeyDustDiplomat  type   sudo apt-get install pastebinit;ifconfig | pastebinit    and paste the url here13:45
Diplomatokay thanks one moment13:45
=== tcpman is now known as Guest72355
Diplomatehehe i cant do it13:46
Diplomatbecause eth1 is my internet13:46
Diplomathttp://puu.sh/90y2r.png that's my ifconfig13:46
HaaPutsl33k did you try with -t iso966013:47
Diplomathttp://puu.sh/90y8t.png and this is my interfaces file13:48
GlitchyGadgetDoes anyone know why a splash screen might no load during boot, even if no proprietary image drivers were installed?13:49
no1[away]@Diplomat: why do you have both "auto" and specify a static IP?13:49
GlitchyGadgetmight not*13:49
Diplomatbecause they are all static ips13:49
Diplomatand i have no idea honestly13:50
MonkeyDustDiplomat  i guess 'gateway' is simply missing for eth0:113:50
Diplomatbut eth1 is failing to come ip13:50
GlitchyGadgetYeah. It's really strange. When I go into the software updates section, it does tell me that certain things won't be installed - likely because of either "incomplete installs, or proprietary installs" - so it might be a conflict somewhere. Still, it's pretty minor, since I've seen linux builds with splash screens disabled13:51
Diplomatcome up *13:52
GlitchyGadgetI don't NEED a splash screen, but it would be nice. Still... pretty aesthetic13:52
sl33k_HaaPut: Good that it mounts now. However, I can't write to it it seems13:52
sl33k_mount: block device /dev/sdb1 is write-protected, mounting read-only13:52
sl33k_How do I copy files to it?13:52
Diplomatwhen i do ifup -v eth1 then that's the result: http://puu.sh/90yth.png13:54
HaaPutsl33k_: i am not sure if you can copy files directly to an iso image..13:55
JerryPhi, installing ubuntu for the first time (alongside win8), as of now my personal files are gonna stay on my win8 partition (pics, music, movies) the instructions i am following state to put 50gb for ubuntu, 12gb for swap and the rest for home. if i only have 100gb, does this sound like a good setup?13:55
HaaPutsl33k_: if you want a bootable ubuntu 14.04 iso there are for that13:55

I'd used it before with gifs without problem, so I'm guessing it uses another program to draw the graphics and it needs fixing... I just don't know what.13:59
DeihmosOh yea? And you expect better results with wine? Lmao13:59

Trudkostwbay: 42GB != 39GB16:22
OerHeksknob contact your VPS vendor, there is no such standard password16:22
knobThe setup gave me the password... yet not the login account name16:23
SchrodingersScatknob: did you try 'root'? some vps will use that, despite !root16:23
stwbayTrudko: It's close enough allowing for the fact that one might be 1024K per M and one might be 1000K per M, and in any case you can size it manually should you wish to16:23
knobSchrodingersScat, yes, I tried   root    and    Root16:24
knobI am doing this right now through VNX16:24
knobVNC16:24
SchrodingersScatknob: have you tried ssh?16:24
stwbayknob: Ubuntu has no root account by default, use your user account. Your vps provider should be able to tell you what it is.16:24
stwbayOk pedants wil say it has but login is disabled .. /care :-)16:25
knobSchrodingersScat, haven't tried ssh.... going to do that now.16:25
stwbayTrudko: Ubuntu will be fully operational in under 16GB anyway16:26
knobSchrodingersScat, ssh... I get the login prompt... yet.... using root??16:27
knobroot and Root... and the provided password does not login16:27
knobnot sure wth is up16:27
stwbayknob: 3rd time now. Ubuntu has no default root password (root login is disabled). Ask your VPS provider what credentials to use16:27
SchrodingersScatknob: then if you don't have any user name with your provider, and there isn't setup instructions when you signed up, you probably need to contact your provider.16:27
OerHeksknob, your vendor knows16:28
knobOk16:28
SchrodingersScatknob: could also look through the control panel and look for password options, might give you some clues16:29
knobYeah... clicked on everything, yet... it's pretty baren16:29

ikoniacertainlg a lot of errors/warnings on disks there16:49
ethan_I  am new to ubuntu and I had to do a reinstall so i used the dd commmand and now when i plug in my usb it does not show it on the file manager, but it shows it on gparted with no partitions. I was wondering how do i fix it16:49
Theory``Why does "sudo apt-get update" find nothing to update, but the software update center finds things to  update...do this two things look for different software?16:49
SanoSso when I get there I can type things, but it doesn't really do anything16:49
SanoSI just want to be able to get to a terminal so I can start lightDM16:49
jribTheory``: update just updates your cache.  Do "dist-upgrade"16:49
ikoniaethan_: what has dd got to do with a a reinstall ?16:49
Theory``jrib, ok thanks16:49

SanoSso any idea how I might go about getting a prompt?17:00
ikoniadon't start X17:01
ikoniasort your disk errors out17:01
ikoniaI don't know if there is a panic happening that's scrolling off screen17:01
ikoniathose disk errors don't look healthy though17:01
SanoSyeah it's a storage drive that's the problem, so starting X is the reason that I'm not getting a prompt or lightdm on boot?17:02
ikoniait could just be panicing17:02
ikoniahowever starting X seems another thing to go wrong17:02
stwbaySanoS: Can you boot from  a liveCD, and then copy off the storage drive?17:02
SanoSbecause I can get a desktop if I use and X client, and I can access the machine that way17:02
SanoSit's just unrealiable to try and do a large file copy that way17:02
ikoniawhy do you need X ?17:03
ikoniaget the data off it quick and fix the disk problems17:03
SanoSI have it because I was running it as a headless server and I wanted a way to access the machine and fiddle with my server settings and the like as well as install software17:03
SanoSI haven't tried a livecd, that is a good idea17:03
bdchatleaving17:04
stwbaySanoS: you can also just copy the data off with terminal, rsync etc17:04
ikoniaSanoS: why are you installing software if your disk is screwed17:04
ikoniaget the data off it17:04
SanoSthat's what I'm trying to do17:04
SanoSthe drive that is screwed is a separate media storage drive, my system drive is healthy17:04
stwbayit should boot then. are you sure it's the right way around?17:05
SanoSstwbay: I would do that but I can't get a terminal prompt when the machine starts17:05
ikoniaSanoS: sounds like the kernel is panicing17:06
SanoSstbway: yeah I'm sure because all the servers are running and I can get a remote desktop by using X from another computer17:06
ikoniaSanoS: boot into single user mode - get your data off, fix the problem17:06
stwbaySanoS: Well i think the "easiest" but not necessarily the "best" way, would be to boot a liveCD and copy, or just take the drive out physically17:06
shunya_chakraIs there any option to set new color to panel icons... icons come's at right side of panel17:06
SanoSI just can't get a terminal or lightDM on the local computer17:06
ikoniacan you connect via ssh ?17:06
SanoSyup17:06
SanoSso just ssh and then do the copy there you figure?17:07
ikoniaSanoS: checking the logs for what's going on seems a good start17:07
ikoniabut I wouldl focus on backing up that disks data ASAP17:07
ikoniarather than messing around with X1117:07
SanoSoh for sure, I just want to be able to get a terminal/lightdm on the local machine to do it, maybe I'll try the livecd17:08
SanoSI think it's because I did something to make it headless and now I can't figure out how to go back to getting things to start at boot17:08
ikoniawhy do you need X to back it up ?17:09
ikoniait's just another thing to go wrong17:09
SanoSI'm not sure I understand17:09
SanoSyou mean why not just use SSH and then do the backup?17:10
ikoniacorrect17:10
ikoniawhy the desire for X11 on the console17:10
SanoSI can certainly give that a shot17:10
stwbaySSH+rsync etc would indeed be the 'best' solution but requires you to actually know how to use the terminal, which I assumed you were having trouble with, hence suggested a livecd, which requries less technical expertise17:11
edude03hmm I figured it  out it seems - my drive mounts automatically as /media for some reason? umount /media fixed that17:11

Jordan_UMIke11123: Compiling and installing such a basic low level part of the OS outside of the package manager was not a good idea, and was not needed for what you're trying to do either.

Beldarrustyrazorblade, That would be an opinion, this is support.19:57
Lannisterbekks: chown -r Lannister /opt/lampp/htdocs/   ??19:57
bekksrustyrazorblade: Upgrade to a supported release, then ask again please.19:57
Jeeves_Mossbekks, sure, I have a BeagleBone Black and a 3G shield.  I can get wvdial to work, but I can't get an IP address.19:57
bekksLannister: thats a correct syntax for chown19:58
sl33k_bekks: Just wanted to copy some files to my kingston usb stick. Turned out it was not auto mounted. Then mounted physically after taking some advice from a fellow channel member. Ended up with an empty stick with read only permission.19:58
icsuhello19:59
bekkssl33k_: so mount it and own the mount to the user, whicch can be done without chmod at all.19:59
sl33k_bekks: also used this command: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=51219:59
bekks!mount | sl33k_19:59
ubottusl33k_: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount19:59
Lannisterbekks: I'm not sure what my username is. is it what is shown on ubuntu login page or the one writen right beside command line??19:59

bekksLannister: type: "id" without ""20:00
icsudoes someone know if I encrypt my harddrive it makes it more secure against attack from online? Or is it only more secure if it get stolen irl?20:00
bekksicsu: Yes. It doesnt help you at all against online attacks.20:00
Beldaricsu, If your booted and online the encryption means nothing20:00
icsuthank you bekks20:00
Lannisterbekks: chown -r sam /opt/lampp/htdocs/ chown: invalid option -- 'r' Try `chown --help' for more information.20:00

icsuguys*20:00
sl33k_bekks: Is there some switch for the command to own the mount to the user?20:01
Beldaricsu, Encryption is a good way to loose all that it contains, so be sure you know what your doing.20:02

Beldarmitas, This a dual boot and if so with what?20:07
sl33k_bekks: fired up gparted. Is there a recommended partition table type?20:08
mitasBeldar, actually this is a multi-boot system (Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit, Win7 Prof. 64Bit and Arch Linux)20:08
Beldarerr intention of anyway20:08
Beldarmitas, msdos?20:09
=== Guest14730 is now known as Dragnslcr

mitasBeldar, the partition table? yes, msdos/ MBR type20:09
Beldarno gpt is the point mitas20:09
bekkssl33k_: use MB unless your USB device is larger than 2TB.20:09

Beldarmitas, Cool, I'm not familiar with btrfs, is it different than just dropping the bootloader to the mbr, with a chroot?20:10
BeldarIs there a boot partition?20:10
sl33k_bekks: I am ignorant about these but could not find MBR. There are msdos and gpt among others20:11
Beldarmitas, I have 4 OS here. ;)20:11
bekkssl33k_: MBR is msdos.20:11
mitasBeldar, it is much different than dropping the bootloader to MBR within chroot and no,  there is no boot partition right now20:11

szyszynkahi, adjusting the brightness in my Sony Vaio VPCM12M1E on Ubuntu 14.04LTS doesn't work. What can i do?20:14
mitasBeldar, I tried installing Win7 to gpt, it is a nightmare. That's the only reason why I stuck with MBR on the disk that will contain the bootloader. btrfs subvolumes are a bit like LVM subvolumes, but they are no block devices, they are a POSIX namespace20:14
Beldarmitas, All on the same setup? I believe it all has to be the same partition table same, could be wrong however.20:15
MojtabaHi, Do you know how can I format my external HDD to exfat?20:15

Beldarsounds like gpt is gone now?20:16
bekkssl33k_: Did you create a filesystem on your newly created partition yet?20:16
sl33k_bekks: creating...20:16
MojtabaI have a mac and ubuntu and I would like to be able to use my 2TB external HDD in both. Any other solution?20:17
szyszynkahi, adjusting the brightness in my Sony Vaio VPCM12M1E after update Ubuntu 14.04LTS (from 13.10) doesn't work. What can i do in this case?20:17
shapeMojtaba: it's really easy20:18
shapeMojtaba: lsblk, do you see it there?20:18
Mojtabashape: Yes20:18
shapeMojtaba: what filesystem do you want20:19
mitasBeldar, I have 4 "HDD" 's within that particular system; one of them is an SSD. sda is my main disk, containing both GRUB2 and the Win7 ntloader, sdb and sdd are merged into a btrfs RAID1 array, sdc is my SSD which contains the root partition for my Ubuntu installation, but there is still plenty of space left on that device.20:19
Mojtabashape: I guess I need exfat to be able to use in both mac and ubuntu.20:19
=== LmL-Laplet is now known as LjL-Laplet
mitasMojtaba, exfat taints the kernel20:20
Mojtabamitas: What should I do then?20:20
sl33k_bekks: It was defaulted to ext4 which I did not touch previously in gparted GUI. But the information tab shows file system as unallocated. And I could not find any suitable option in menu. Am i missing anything?20:20
bekkssl33k_: Any suitable option for _what_?20:21
shapeMojtaba: apt-cache search exfat, then see if there is a package exfat utils, then all you have to do is mkfs.exfat /dev/partition20:21
Beldarmitas, Thing about gpt is it will leave remnants not seen without running an app like the bootinfo script, might be an issue, hard to tell, from here is all.20:21
sl33k_bekks: For allocating file system20:21
BeldarIf you had gpt is all20:21
bekkssl33k_: you have to click on that button in gparted which actually executes your changes.20:21
shapeMojtaba: or just try mkfs.exfat /dev/partition and see if it works the exfat utils might be already avail20:22
Beldarmitas, Anyway, I'm not really helping you. ;)20:22
Mojtabashape: I guess I should install it first. But I don't know how20:23
Mojtabamitas: Do you have any suggestion?20:23
sl33k_bekks: great! had missed it entirely. Was also wondering why it warned 1 operation remaining while quitting.20:25
shapeMojtaba: I already told you how to install it. apt-get install exfat-utils then mkfs.exfat /dev/partition20:27

storyI was told not to do that, that it should always remain a link in 14.0420:47

storyhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization20:48
storyIt's in the Prepare and chroot Section20:49
Jordan_Upoz: Don't ever run a command as root unless you know that A: It is designed to be run as root (which Matlab almost certainly is not) and B: You know that the command actually needs to be run as root.20:49

Jordan_U!gksudo | poz20:50
ubottupoz: 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)20:50
pozJordan_U: Yes, sir. I understand20:50
storyshape: my hosts file is exactly as the one I'm using now to talk to you as the one in chroot20:51
pozJordan_U, I guess the problem is that neither gksudo or not having sudo does not work at all. Nothing happends20:51
Jordan_Upoz: As for why the terminal isn't closing, it's because screen is not exiting (which is expected), but since you don't need the terminal for sudo any more, you should no longer have that problem and can just use Terminal=false20:52
storythis is the warning that is confusing me, I don't understand what file it refers to edit: WARNING: If you do this in 14.04 LTS, you will lose network connectivity (name resolving part of it). /etc/resolv.conf is and should remain a symlink to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf nowadays. To enable name resolving, temporarily edit that file instead. If you need the network connection within chroot20:52

Beldarrio_zenta, What issue?22:03
k1l_rio_zenta: can you be more specific?22:03
rio_zentaSorry, I meant the "black screen" issue. Found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132&p=10089820#post1008982022:03
rio_zentathe 1 where you have to use nomodeset22:03
Beldarrio_zenta, The only thing grub has to do with that is the insertion of nomodeset, that is a graphic driver issue.22:04
k1l_rio_zenta: that is not a grub issue. its a kernel bootparameter that the kernel and the video driver needs22:04
rio_zentaokay, so the issue was with the graphics driver?22:05
Beldarrio_zenta, Not every driver gets installed, is available on a live, or in the repos.22:06
k1l_yep22:06
rio_zentaDid everyone on 12.04 experience it?22:06
rio_zentaoh!!! that makes a lot of sense Beldar22:06
k1l_rio_zenta: no. its not everyone. it depends on your specific hardware22:06
rio_zentanow I understand why the linux folks sometimes complain about graphics drivers. The hardware companies dont like releasing access/info about it.22:06
Beldarrio_zenta, I figured you would get that, some are reversed engineered, or provided by manufactures....etc.22:07
k1l_rio_zenta: yes. linux doesnt get the support like windows does22:07
rio_zentaokay this makes a lot of sense now. My newer laptop successfully installed without trouble, but my older systems all experienced the grub issue.22:08
Beldarrio_zenta, Not a grub issue, don't say it that way.22:08
k1l_rio_zenta: its a solution that is entered in grub. the issue is on the video driver side22:09
rio_zentaI've used the nomodeset solution. But the final step is to install the drivers?22:10
Beldarrio_zenta, If they are in the repos yes.22:10
Beldarrio_zenta, There are other driver possibilities, however here we start with the open source in the repos.22:11
rio_zentaBeldar and if not, then nomodeset is the final solution.22:11

lannisterrio_zenta: how can I fix this??23:08
rio_zentalannister, have you ever installed joomla before?23:08
lannisterrio_zenta: no havn't tried joomla23:08
designbybeckI was a fan of joomla back in the day, but I haven't tried all the new improvments in years so I know they have come a long way23:09
rio_zentalannister: http://www.webantix.net/2009/11/installing-dvwa-damn-vulnerable-web.html23:09
fabkiushi, driver for amd videocard ati hd 6310 not work on ubuntu 12.04, driver amd is supported by ubuntu since version 12.04?23:10
rio_zentadesignbybeck: I like that they made it responsive, but what I was trying to point out to lannister is that even when using joomla, you normally have to "fill" the DB with some pre-data, which i assumed DVWA might need too.23:10
mitasbekks, I got around using debootstrap. My method was to install normally, using a temporary /home drive. Afterwards, I dropped into rescue mode, remounted / readwrite, created a btrfs raid1 array and a subvolume ubuntuhome_sv on top of it. I edited /etc/fstab to comment out the old /home and made my new /home point to the subvolume I had just created. This corrupts my original user, but after creating another user I used that one to log23:10
mitasin on the system that finally meets my demands. Evrything works now.23:10
Jordan_Ulannister: Why didn't you install LAMP normally, via the repositories?23:11
designbybeckah23:12
YuLinkickstart config for ubuntu 13.10 server, anyone?23:12
rio_zentaJordan_U: Xampp is too easy for win guys to want to install a lamp server23:13
wheresmypaaantsk1l_: ping23:13
wheresmypaaantsk1l_: NVIDIA binary driver - version 337.19 from nvidia-337 - (open source)23:13
rio_zentaI know, cause I also wanted to use xampp for linux once upon a time.23:13
k1l_!xampp23:13
ubottuWe do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information.23:13
Jordan_Urio_zenta: Installing LAMP normally is easier than installing xampp or lampp IMHO.23:14
k1l_wheresmypaaants: is that a ubuntu driver? did you try the ubuntu drivers from the repo?23:14
rio_zentaJordan_U: that might be true, but inertia is the reason why so many people will still use something when something else is available.23:14
LuthaPowaholla laura23:14
wheresmypaaantsk1l_: I assumed open source drivers in the additional drivers page are ubuntu drivers23:15
Ben64nvidia binary driver is not open source23:15
lannisterJordan_U: didn't know it makes any difference. like if you install virtualbox from software centre it will install a very old unstable version so I kind of stoped using default repo23:16
k1l_wheresmypaaants: no. there is something wrong. which ubuntu is that exactly? the latest 14.04 nvidia driver is 33123:16
wheresmypaaantsk1l_: Haven't updated for a while23:16
wheresmypaaantsk1l_: I'm on pure ubuntu23:17
rio_zentalannister you don't actually need the repo version of lamp either.23:17

ReptiliaI used to have Xubuntu 13.10 installed on my laptop, and i've decided to format everything, and do a fresh install of Xubuntu 14.10. After that, i notice that the overall performance has decreased, whether in browsing the net, opening apps, etc. What could the problem be, and is there a way to fix this? Thanks in advance.23:21
Ben64Reptilia: 14.10 is not released yet, and therefore not supported in here, try #ubuntu+123:21

hroihi23:23
Ben64Reptilia: kind of a generic question. try using system monitors to see what is taking resources. atop, htop, top, ps....23:24
hroiIm getting a little tired of short support ubuntu23:24
hroiis it possible for me to switch to ubuntu stable?   in an apt command?23:24
k1l_hroi: which ubuntu are you on?23:24

hroik1l_, ehm I think 131023:25
hroilets see23:25
k1l_hroi: lsb_release -r23:25
ReptiliaBen64:Anyone else has reported that they've noticed this?23:25
hroik1l_,  the lates short support23:25
Ben64Reptilia: not that i've seen23:25
hroi13.1023:25
hroisorry not latest23:25
k1l_hroi: upgrade to 14.04 then, that is a LTS version23:26
hroik1l_,  does that mean it has more things ironed out?23:26
SarseoHm... Lack of an answer must mean it's either pretty bad or not a valid question to ask. :\23:26
k1l_hroi: it got 5 years support23:26
hroik1l_,  like ibus input ?23:26
k1l_!lts | hroi23:26
ubottuhroi: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04)23:26
Ben64Sarseo: its a very subjective question, and not really a support question.23:27
k1l_hroi: it got some new versions than 13.10 so mybe there are some bugs already fixed23:27
hroik1l_,  Im not sure, but basically.... LTS should age well!  right?23:28
Jeffrey_f1hroi: LTS is meant for enterprise systems where you can't afford to be on the bleeding edge, where you have stable software instead of fixes as soon as they are avail.23:28
hroik1l_,  only get better with time... more bugs fixed23:28
hroik1l_, instead of constantly going for latest versions23:28
hroiJeffrey_f1, ok good23:29
Ben64LTS is good for people who don't want to upgrade every 6 months23:29
SarseoBen64, subjective questions aren't allowed here? :\  And how well games run / how well supported / performance compared to other OS's sounds pretty support-related to me.23:29
Jeffrey_f1hroi: The downside, you don't have immediate fixes or new stuff until the next LTS23:30
Ben64Sarseo: i'm sure it'd be a good topic for #ubuntu-offtopic23:30
hroiJeffrey_f1, k1l_, Ben64 :     yeah... im not intersested in bleeding edge... mostly in stability and minimizing bugs...23:30
hroiJeffrey_f1, k1l_ , Ben64 :  Now... does a very "new" LTS... have many bugs... as many as a short term support?23:30
=== Sway is now known as Sway|away
=== Guest85471 is now known as esde
hroiJeffrey_f1,  right... I wont have latest version... that normally means new features... but not bug fixes so much23:31
Ben64hroi: it is possible, but 13.10 loses support and bugfixes entirely in about 2 months23:31
=== CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away
Jeffrey_f1hroi: LTS is the way then.  LTS is enterprise grade and there WILL be bugs, but the software tends to be tried and true versions with the exception of security fixes23:32
DANtheBEASTmanhow do I enable multiarch in 14.04?23:32
hroiJeffrey_f1, ok... thanks!23:32
hroiJeffrey_f1,   security is good... but what bugs me most is desktop related bugs... especially chinese input23:32
hroiJeffrey_f1,  I'd be happy with an older version of my desktop, so long the input method system works like charm23:34
Jeffrey_f1hroi: not sure about specific bugs, if you have a problem, document and report the bugs at Launchpad.net23:34
hroiJeffrey_f1, funny thing is, when it comes to chinese input... you almost dont bother reporting it, there are already hundreds of reports23:35

{asimov}SchrodingersScat: did it work23:37
Jeffrey_f1hroi: Not sure what to tell you.  The only way to get stuff fixed is either fix it yourself and submit it as a bug fix or keep reporting23:37
hroibut I gather, version 14. is LTS, but not necessarily emphasising desktop stuff23:37
hroiJeffrey_f1, yeah... but thanks... I have a better view of what LTS is.   It doesnt necessarily mean older desktop than 13.1023:38
Ben64hroi: 14.04 is LTS, everything is supported in it for 5 years, there will also be a 14.10, which is only supported for 9 months23:38
Guest9949ciao23:38
hroiBen64, great, I might as well go to 14.04   and see how things improve with time23:38

hroiBen64, btw. is 12.04 LTS still in support?23:38

Reptiliaianorlin:Thanks23:39
hroiBen64, great!  I imagine if 12.04 has been around for a couple of years it might have aged passed some bugs already23:39
Ben64hroi: it's getting old though23:40
hroiJeffrey_f1, Ben64,   maybe old is good --- kinda of what I was getting at... is older LTS better and more stable than brand new LTS :)23:40
