[00:00] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7540201 [00:00] Guest57856: pick a username that isn't unavailable === Guest57856 is now known as am27 [00:00] thanks === am27 is now known as oops === oops is now known as aladin === dog_ is now known as hibernatehelp [00:03] yo [00:03] I just installed ubuntu on my laptop but the hibernate is missing, how do I enable it?? [00:03] andreas_: And now can you post "pastebinit /var/log/dmesg" ? [00:04] it is ubuntu 14.04 lts [00:05] also the screen brightness slider doesn't do anything [00:05] TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7540233 [00:06] Hey thankks guys im into the php channel now [00:06] andreas_: Bashing-om "[ 17.865276] init: gdm main process (1013) killed by TERM signal" ... and there are other TERMS of other services earlier [00:07] hibernatehelp: pm-suspend? [00:07] Alright. I have a question that is probably extremely simple, but its not easy for me. .-. [00:07] lol [00:07] that might have worked [00:08] andreas_: Now show us "tail -n 5000 /var/log/syslog | pastebinit" [00:08] Anyone good with windows 8? [00:09] agspy1: Ask ##windows [00:09] TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7540246 [00:10] My windows will NOT boot off of my disc. Whatsoever. Went into my BIOS menu and changed the boot priorities, and nothing came of it. Any ideas? [00:11] agspy1: What has this to do with Ubuntu? Did you install it? [00:11] agspy1: this is #ubuntu [00:11] andreas_: THat's very helpful, it identifies an issue with the drivers, bear with me [00:11] My bad. I didnt mean my windows. My computer wont boot my ubuntu disc. (I shouldve prolly said that before) [00:11] TJ: not a problem === Logan__ is now known as Logan_ [00:13] Logan_, they named an airport after you :) [00:13] Is there any way to reset internet? [00:13] sudo service networking restart kills x [00:13] No one? :c [00:15] What linux filesystem supports transparent compression? [00:15] andreas_: Bashing-om I'm looking at "[ 18.049873] NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x23:0x2f:682)" in syslog [00:16] andreas_: errors? [00:16] raub: with what exactly lol take your pick [00:16] andreas_: NVM, that was for agspy1: [00:16] raub: oh lol oops [00:17] beardtree: what do you mean by killing X? [00:17] Hi, I have 2 gpus in my system. Is there a way to tell ubuntu which to use? [00:17] raub I am not getting any errors. It just wont boot off of the disc. It will only boot my windows 8. [00:18] hi, is it possible to install ubuntu 14 from within windows 7? I do not have a cd/usb i can use atm. [00:18] Phlyrox: from within? As in a vm? [00:18] not as vm, [00:18] andreas_: TJ- Dogs lit up outside, had to go see what had them disturbed. playing catch up. [00:19] agspy1: usually you need to get your bios to accept a boot drive other than your OS [00:19] i still want to dual boot. i would of liked to use wubi but i noticed it is no longer supported === lahwran_ is now known as lahwran [00:19] Bashing-om: See line 4826 of http://paste.ubuntu.com/7540246/ [00:20] i have already looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows [00:20] I once tried ubuntu before. But I cant remember if it was while I had windows 7 or 8. I think this may by my first time booting off of something other than my normal OS. [00:21] however it seems that the page is outdated [00:22] agspy1: do you know if this disk will boot on another computer yet? [00:22] I dont own or have open access to any others. [00:22] cause that can cause a different set of problems than your computer not booting off this disk [00:22] where'd you get the disc? [00:23] A normal blank DVD that was burned with the extracted .iso files. [00:23] k. pretty tough to know which problem to try addressing. do you have any other dvd's that can boot the computer? [00:24] windows disc, rescue... hardware test... password cracker. [00:25] The only other thing I can do is make the EXACT same thing, and try to run it. The only problem I have is I only have about 1 more disc, and I would like to not use it. [00:25] Anyone using ZFS on Linux for production on limited systems? How much RAM is the minimum requirements for it? Somehow I can't find that in the documentation. [00:25] why would canonical ship a cobbler package in trusty that can't even recognize trusty? [00:25] well you got a problem then. cause you don't even know if you made the disc right and you have nothing else to test for bootability [00:26] andreas_: Bashing-om OK, I think I see why that error happened. The *wrong* version of the nvidia proprietary driver is installed. The legacy driver is installed, but the installed device needs the current driver, version 331 "NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module 173.14.39" [00:26] there's two things that can cause the disc not to boot. one is that it hasn't been made properly, with boot flag and so forth. (i use usb sticks myself) and two is that your computer is setup to allow booting from dvd's. you don't know the answer to either, nor do you have equipment to test for it [00:27] Sachiru, "If the deduplication feature is used, a general rule of thumb is 5GB of RAM per TB of storage" https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/filesystems-zfs.html [00:27] I dont see how I could make it wrong. I downloaded the iso off of the ubuntu website. I extracted all the files, burned them onto a disk, went into my BIOS, changed the priorities to boot off of a disc as top, and it doesnt even think about it. [00:28] nope. that's not right [00:28] What isnt right. [00:28] don't extract the files. burn the iso as is [00:28] I am going to do that. And if it doesnt work, I will be back in here. [00:29] we'll expect you i guess. staying here to talk more would be smarter... [00:29] Nah [00:29] No intention to dedupe [00:29] Just bare needs [00:29] I do intend to compress though [00:29] Sachiru, then 1 gb/tb storage [00:30] andreas_: Can you show us "dpkg-query -l 'nvidia*' | pastebinit" ? [00:30] come back to say thanks when it works === felipealmeida is now known as felipealmeida_AW [00:30] TJ: yerp. [00:31] TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7540323 [00:32] Ok. [00:32] Is that 1GB including OS, or just for ZFS needs? [00:33] that would be ex OS [00:35] lenswipe: isn't that brilliant? [00:36] Ok [00:36] hey so I'm partitioning a win7 hard drive to use ubuntu and I have four partitions that came with the laptop I'm using. I have SYSTEM_DRV and Windows 7, which I'm fairly confident are important, and I have a Lenovo and Lenovo_PART partitions. Does anyone know how I can combine these or get rid of one so I can have another partition? === Jules is now known as Guest95963 [00:41] TJ-: -> we had previously "removed" the Nvidia driver ( thought so !) and installed the nouveau driver. looks like I did not do my work very well. [00:41] andreas_: Sorry, I got side-tracked. Just looked, that's helpful. Can you remind which version of Ubuntu that is ("cat /etc/issue") ? === terry is now known as Guest94031 [00:42] Bashing-om: looks like the legacy driver is still there, possibly a left-over from the mobo's on-board video which is BIOS-disabled? [00:43] Look whos back. :) [00:43] andreas_: "sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-173 nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-common" [00:44] TJ: um... did you mean my version of ubuntu or what the boot_image said from that command [00:44] ok [00:44] andreas_: "cat /etc/issue" [00:44] TJ-: -> andreas_ Not to detract your mind, I am mistified why the Nvidia driver is still present, and as well why nouvuea is still blacklisted, will have to address these manually I recon. [00:44] Logan_, yes it is :) [00:44] Logan_, I fly there every christmas to see my FIancee [00:44] :D [00:44] Gallomimia I am back, [00:44] Bashing-om: which nvidia package did you delete originally? [00:45] burned another disc? [00:45] it didnt work? [00:45] Yep. Burned it. without extracting the iso. Nada [00:45] TJ-: I "think" now maybe only nvidia-current . [00:45] Bashing-om: that'd explain these legacy drivers remaining [00:46] TJ: boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-63-generic [00:47] Bashing-om: hey, whatever it takes, yeah? [00:47] And I was right, That was my last disc. [00:47] andreas_: That isn't the output of "cat /etc/issue" is it? === e is now known as e^ [00:48] andreas_: I'm expecting something like "Ubuntu 14.04 LTS \n \l" [00:49] TJ: ok that last command finished and ended with "ureadahead will be reprofiled on next reboot" shall I do that? [00:49] so is it possible to install ubuntu14 from within windows7 like wubi once did without having to use a cd/usb [00:50] TJ: I'm not running 14.04 I'm running 12.04. paste.ubuntu.com/7540201 is the cat one [00:51] andreas_: thanks, I just wanted to be sure :) [00:51] should I reboot? [00:51] andreas_: not yet, no. [00:51] TJ: ok [00:51] TJ: glad I asked lol [00:52] Bashing-om can you take andreas_ through the removal of "blacklist nouveau" entries whilst I research the motherboard in detail? [00:52] Hello I am running ubuntu 13.10 on a Dell, I can watch Amazon Prime video but if I switch tabs, the video goes blank and only audio works, what can I do? I tried restarting [00:52] andreas_: As I understand it, this is the motherboard: http://www.motherboards.org/reviews/motherboards/1801_2.html [00:53] TJ: that's the one [00:53] No one? [00:53] TJ-: an yeah .. I want to do it hands on .. show us -> ls -la /etc/modprobe.d | pastebinit <-. [00:54] andreas_: ^^ [00:54] k [00:55] Alright, thanks for ignoring me. I guess I wasted my time here. [00:55] Bashing-om: paste.ubuntu.com/7540473 [00:55] andreas_: whilst you're pastebinning, can you do "sudo lspci -nnvvv | pastebinit" for me, pretty-please :) ? [00:55] TJ: not a problem }:) [00:56] TJ: paste.ubuntu.com/7540474 [00:57] andreas_: look'n at 7540473 . === rohan_ is now known as RohanM [00:58] where do you change your username on here I've been trying to find it lol === Phlyrox is now known as Phly === Phly is now known as Phlyrox [00:59] no idea [00:59] andreas_: Thanks. That tells me that at some point in the past, you disabled the motherboard's internal GeForce 8200 graphics chipset and only used the external, PCIe, adapter, is that correct? [01:00] andreas_: All I see of interest presently is the 1 file -> cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | pastebinit <- . [01:00] username on the chat or on the paste.ubuntu.com site? [01:00] TJ: yes, because it was not displaying and I remember the first card was having trouble because of it. once I did that everything was fine [01:00] andreas_: OK, I'm just ensuring that my reading of the info you provide matches reality :) [01:00] andreas_: gives us more confidence in recommending changes [01:01] TJ: bitchin~ [01:02] Bashing-om: an aside: I suspect that this may have been why the 'correct' nvidia driver (version 3xx) failed because the older kernel version was loading first. I think it'd be high probability that now andreas has removed those older legacy drivers, re-installing the nvidia-3xx version would give him a fully working, 3D accelerated, system === fwilson is now known as fwilson|walking- === fwilson|walking- is now known as fwilson [01:03] how do you enable hibernation in ubuntu 14.04? [01:04] TJ-: You recommend the proprietary driver over nouveau ? .. I persoanally have had the better results from open source drivers ( non-gameing) . [01:04] hibernateme: If I recall correctly, hibernation option was removed because of many problems, so most systems only have access to suspend/resume. I believe there are hibernation solutions that will work though. [01:05] Bashing-om: I've never had a problem with latest nvidia drivers; I'm using v337.68 here now, on a laptop, with 3 nvidia GPUs [01:06] gallomimia: the chat. sorry, I didn't see anyone had replied to that, I'm like in 3 places at once lol [01:06] yeah [01:06] TJ-: andreas_ Nothing says we can not try the Nvidia driver and see what results, no need then to non-blacklist nouveau . [01:07] to change username in chat its simple /nick newname [01:07] so from the lack of response, I assume no one knows i maybe able to install ubuntu without a cd or usb? [01:07] how do you enable hibernation in ubuntu 14.04? [01:07] Bashing-om: it looks like precise-updates has 331.38 with package "nvidia-331-updates" from restricted [01:07] omg that damn simple lol ok, thanks much === medberry is now known as Guest40010 [01:08] Bashing-om: I don't disagree with testing with the nouveau driver first though, if you want to go ahead with that. It would give us some good confirmation the card itself works! [01:08] Phlyrox: you could via a PXE boot, but you'd need to set up a PXE/bootp/NFS environment for it [01:08] TJ: well, the card must work to some degree, since it's being used to do all this so far lol [01:09] Phlyrox: there is a way usung unetbootin [01:09] TJ-, thanks. ill look into it [01:10] google it os go to unetbootin, I believe instead of extracting iso to usb, use a partition instead, and then reboot/select from grub menu [01:10] debian_dog, ill also look into that. thanks [01:10] andreas_: I was meaning for 2D/3D graphics :p [01:10] hey everyone lenovo t61 running ubntu 12.04. today suddenly for some reason my laptop is stuck at 1.2 ghz speed although max is 2.1 . It is not going any higher and I was hoping to find out why [01:11] TJ: lol yeah Iknow [01:11] I'm not fixing that === andreas_ is now known as seer-of-void [01:12] ahh much better [01:12] seer-of-void: Better warn Bashing-om ! [01:13] Query: Is it possible to limit ZRAM on the system? [01:13] Bashing-om: it's andreas, I changed my name just so you know [01:13] Specifically set ZRAM to 1/2GB instead of some percentage?

[01:35] it is [01:36] hey guys [01:36] installing ubuntu server [01:36] i got past the keyboard detection bit [01:36] now i just have a purple screen [01:36] nothing on it? [01:36] i pressed enter a few times and it filled up with light grey [01:36] want a pic? [01:37] its not hard to imagine. just trying to figure out the problem [01:38] did you check the hash of the file before making install media? [01:38] no [01:38] i never do that either ;) [01:38] Gallomimia, this machine doesn't have an internet connection could that be related? [01:38] Gallomimia: in the BIOS settings, ensure that "legacy USB" or similar is enabled. Otherwise, the BIOS leaves it to the booted OS... which means the boot-loader and won't have keyboard. If a full kernel starts then that *should* load the correct USB HID drivers though [01:38] TJ-, the keyboard works perfectly (PS/2 keyboard) [01:39] it doesn't have a full kernel working at this point. installers only [01:39] lenswipe: he's telling me about keyboard problems [01:39] oh [01:39] TJ-: i've fiddled with that setting a lot, and i'm seeing no benefit so far. i'll try some more. i think it's my settings of legacy only or uefi only [01:39] Gallomimia: OK, I've seen that happen alot... reboot into BIOS settings... do a "load factory defaults", look for and check that "legacy USB" (or whatever it is called) is enabled, make any custom changes you know you need, save the settings, and reboot. [01:40] everything runs ontop of bios, and i have done nothing with mine. not even update it :( [01:40] Gallomimia: I think the important step, often, is to reload default settings... it seems sometimes the NVRAM config gets corrupted and sets some 'bits' it ought not [01:40] TJ-: so far the field is not titled "custom changes i know i need" it's called "custom changes i think i need" [01:40] Gallomimia: :) [01:41] yeah that's what's happened. i got a couple messages saying its reloading bios settings from a backup bios, and soon it will boot. i dunno what's changed [01:41] ah. "load optimised defaults" === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [01:42] the part i get confused with is xhci and ehci hand-off support. looking them up made the problem worse === R83034 is now known as Z32 [01:44] Gallomimia, imgur.com/0m0yx6R === Z32 is now known as N300ZX [01:45] lenswipe: as i said its easy to imagine. it's not easy to figure out whats wrong [01:45] the only thing i can suggest is that the install media is broken somehow [01:46] TJ-: trying the desktop livecd gives me a blackscreen now [01:46] i had it working with this hardware setup before [01:47] and i did not try nomodeset === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [01:47] Gallomimia: Hmmm! [01:48] odd this yes. legacyopcode or efi? [01:48] the hardware has changed since last i had this system running [01:49] Gallomimia: I prefer EFI, especially if you plan on a multi-boot setup [01:49] Gallomimia, right, i might re-download and install [01:49] Any body else have issues with Chromium being very large in ubuntu? [01:49] lenswipe: you can double check the hash of the file you downloaded [01:50] yh [01:50] brontos_, Can you define what is large, to the channel. [01:51] Gallomimia, it started working again before i got the chance to shut it down [01:51] well who kne [01:51] knew [01:51] oh well :) [01:51] now i have blackscreen. does any key work? [01:51] wilee-nilee, The UI is very large compared to all the other apps. I almost looks like it is displayed at 800x600 resolution. I can zoom out of the html but not the browser [01:52] Hi [01:52] wilee-nilee, All other apps look normal [01:52] I'm using Firefox 29 on Ubuntu 14.04 and it's painfully slow [01:52] hi guys. [01:52] I already went through the usual runaround of disabling plugins & addons [01:52] i was wondering if anyone can assist? [01:52] !ask [01:52] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [01:53] alright so i have a pentium D 2GB ram machine and i just put the latest xubuntu, did all the updates but it appears to be sluggish and crashing alot. [01:55] ashley_: Check your hard drive. [01:55] It might be on the verge of failing. I once installed Xubuntu on an old Pentium machine and it ran great at first, only to suddenly become sluggish, slow, and crashy. [01:55] When I checked the HDD with Disks, I found that it had over 200 bad sectors (not good) and that it was failing [01:56] Hey, I've got a graphics issue making my screen be solid black before login. I can't get GRUB to appear, even holding shift at startup, tried USB and PS/2 keyboards. I know it isn't a hardware issue because Windows is working fine. [01:56] what about it exactly? Its a new 80gb and it was running fine on win vista (slow for obvious reasons) but it ran ok. :/ i'll check it and see the hdd health just incase. [01:56] Bashing-om: btw I added you to the friend list, I hope you don't mind. you were just extremely nice and helpful~ [01:59] brontos_, Not me to the channel, more details was the issue. ;) [02:00] ashley_: Can't hurt to check. [02:00] If it continues acting up, I suggest checking your graphics drivers [02:01] seer-of-void: Looks like I just got back in time to accept that "friends list", OK, Hard drive not recognized. 1st to identify that hard drive -> sudo fdisk -lu | pastebinit <- with out the drive connected. [02:02] @Alfonso how do i update to the most recent drivers on linux? sorry im a newbie [02:03] Bashing-om: ok. this will be on this computer, btw. [02:03] seer-of-void: All of us ubuntu people are nice sorts, TJ- sure was a great help. [02:04] Bashing-om: yes he sure was. what was the package to install pastebin again? [02:05] nvm I got it [02:05] seer-of-void: -> sudo apt-get install pastebinit <- . [02:05] Bashing-om: yeah, I remembered it right after I asked lol [02:06] Bashing-om: paste.ubuntu.com/7540756 [02:07] seer-of-void: look'n /7540756 . [02:07] evening folks [02:08] What steps should I try to troubleshoot a failed boot if I can't get into grub, and all I get is a black screen? [02:08] 14.04, how can I remove window decoration for specified application? [02:09] JoobusJones, This a fresh install? [02:09] It was installed when 14.04 came out, so no. [02:09] Synaptic Manager is in the repository for Ubuntu, so is it save to install stuff using it as well? [02:09] seer-of-void: OK, So far there is but the one hard drive installed into that box, lets see what the system sees when the external drive is connected, Connect the drive and -> sudo fdisk -lu | pastebinit <- once more. [02:09] Things were fine, then a kernel update came out that broke my system I think [02:09] Bashing-om: k let me go get it [02:10] Is there a way to temporarily specify a second /etc/fstab? [02:10] seer-of-void: WAIT!!!! [02:10] JoobusJones, Any clue on your part. WE just had a kernel upgrade, if you are running proprietary graphics, they do not follow this upgrade. [02:10] TJ: hrm? [02:11] JoobusJones, Use nicks here as well, I don't just stare at the screen waiting for your answer, this is free help. ;) [02:11] seer-of-void: *before* you connect the drive, in the terminal, run "tail -n0 -f /var/log/kern.log | tee /tmp/kern.log" .... plug in the disk drive... let the kernel messages stop scrolling, press Ctrl+C to stop the 'tail', then "pastebinit /tmp/kern.log" [02:12] Anyone know how to configure memory limits for ZRAM on ubuntu? There's nothing in the official documentations and if there's anything on the forums about it 2 hours of googling apparently isn't enough. [02:12] TJ: ok, sec [02:12] seer-of-void: that'll let us know what is happening on the driver level [02:12] ok }:) [02:12] ashley_: Oh sorry [02:12] wilee-nilee, sorry, was on my phone which made it difficult to respond [02:12] I was on another channel === da52175 is now known as Speiros === JoobusJ is now known as JoobusJones [02:12] its ok [02:12] You're on Xubuntu, correct? [02:12] correct [02:13] 14.04? [02:13] TJ-: seer-of-void Sure has a way of cutting directly do the bone, do he not ? [02:13] wilee-nilee, I'm running proprietary AMD drivers, and I'd revert to the FOSS Radeon drivers if I could get into a shell [02:13] yes [02:13] Alright [02:13] Holding shift doesn't get me into GRUB though, trying both USB and PS/2 keyboards. [02:13] JoobusJones, Have you adjusted the grub timeout? [02:14] Go to the menu [02:14] Then open the settings [02:14] wilee-nilee, I can't even get into a place where I can adjust that; it's whatever the default is. Even if I hold shift from the second my BIOS start loading I can't get in [02:14] In the settings, look for "Software & Updates" [02:14] JoobusJones: is the keyboard USB? [02:14] TJ-, I've tried both USB and PS/2 keyboards [02:14] Had issues like that in the past, so now I keep a PS/2 keyboard around [02:14] Bashing-om: why, whatever do you mean [02:15] ok got it [02:15] JoobusJones: I've found on some systems, you have to repeatedly tap the Shift key for it to be detected - don't understand why, since the keyboard controller is supposed to set a bit when the shift key is down and leave it that way! [02:15] then go to the "Additional Drivers" tab [02:15] JoobusJones, If it is booting you can use a tty, power on wait about the time it took to get to the login than ctrl-alt-f1 login and doo the voodoo you need t do. [02:15] to* [02:15] It should tell you if any proprietary drivers are available [02:15] If it's empty, then you don't have any driver updates. [02:15] seer-of-void: I just admire the style .. direct and to the point.. to KNOW what is going on at the hardware level. [02:16] ok. seems to say "No drivers available" :( [02:16] ashley_: Is your system up to date? [02:16] wilee-nilee, Will that give me a shell? [02:16] JoobusJones, Yes [02:16] Fantastic. [02:16] what do you mean by up to date? i did do sudo apt-get update. [02:16] I came to Ubuntu from Fedora, which has the GRUB menu show up by default, even with only one OS installed [02:16] JoobusJones, TJ- has a good point on the tapping. [02:16] ashley_: After that, run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [02:17] wilee-nilee, I'll give that a try, both cases, and I'll get back to you [02:17] If you don't want to use the terminal, you can use "Software Updater" [02:17] cool [02:17] It's in your applications [02:17] Is there a method of editing my android phone through any packages on Ubuntu? [02:17] ok just did it [02:17] nothing new thou [02:17] Speiros: editing like what? [02:17] ashley_: Well, when stuff crashes [02:17] Can you tell me what exactly crashes? [02:17] resno I'd like to remove the pre-installed apps, such as facebook. [02:18] its usually only fireforx [02:18] ah. [02:18] fox* [02:18] resno also turning off the camera "click" sound [02:18] but, it freezes the whole computer [02:18] Firefox runs like crap for me too, so it might be a Firefox problem [02:18] Speiros: sure if you root it, etc. this is not an ubuntu question though [02:18] I have a Core 2 Quad & 8GB DDR3 RAM [02:18] Bashing-om: it's a specialty of mine to be as clear as possible~ [02:18] So it should run fine [02:18] ahh okay, i'll try another browser and see if that works. [02:18] But it doesn't [02:18] Speiros: the same tools that windows users have linux has always [02:18] Try Midori if you don't mind third-party browsers. [02:19] It's a little unheard of, but it's a fast and feature packed little browser. [02:19] resno Ok, any suggestions where to go? I'm very useless with this kind of thing. [02:19] Speiros: Install the Android SDK Tools and use things like "adb" see http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/tools-notes.html [02:19] Speiros, Have you been to #android ? [02:19] #android would be a great starting place [02:19] TJ- Thanks, I'll try that. [02:20] and i would suggest researching what you're intending to do.. its possible to brick you phone Speiros [02:20] seer-of-void: That too is an admirable trait, I an sadly lacking in my communications skills. Something I do try and work on. [02:20] wilee-nilee Yes, but it was another program to download to my phone when I can't find the first one [02:20] resno what does bricking it mean? [02:20] Speiros, That us a IRC channel [02:20] is* [02:20] Speiros: bricking means, to turn your phone into a brick, aka make it useless [02:20] resno lol Okay, thanks [02:20] hey guys [02:20] It's almost one already...it'll be a shattered brick soon. [02:21] when i installed ubuntu and it asked to configure the network I said "No." [02:21] Bashing-om: well thus far you've done well [02:21] is there a way to undo that [02:21] Speiros: so read guides througjly and stuff. so have fun. and thats all from us :) [02:21] i looked in ifconfig and its only showing lo [02:21] Ok, thanks for your help folks [02:21] Bashing-om: TJ: ok I feel like I may or may not have missed something, so just take this & tell me what's what. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7540846/ [02:21] anyone? [02:21] lenswipe: youll need to add some stuff to your network config [02:22] lenswipe: you going dhcp i suppose? [02:22] resno, okay, what and where [02:22] and yes [02:22] seer-of-void: Look'n at 7540846 . [02:22] resno, it bothers me that nothing except loopback is showing up in ifconfig [02:22] just crashed [02:22] * DoMPatoneS clear [02:23] seer-of-void: Nope, same same as the 'fdisk -lu' output. try again . [02:23] lenswipe: if you dont configure the network, what would you expect to show up? [02:23] it did as you asked [02:24] seer-of-void: did you also manage to capture the kern.log output? [02:25] Bashing-om: tj said to run that one tail command and something about when the lines stop running or something but when I ran it, it was doing something but it wasn't showing that it was aside from not having the command line again [02:25] Bashing-om: so I'm wondering if that's supposed to happen or if I just misunderstood something [02:25] ashley_: Strange. [02:25] @alfonso idk whats wrong everything just seems very slow [02:25] like the way windows move, the menu opening etc [02:26] resno, fair enough i suppose [02:26] resno, i added auto inhet eth0 to my config file and it seems to be working [02:26] its doing dhcp discover anyway [02:26] :) === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [02:26] lenswipe: ya, i was looking for the config file, and its not were i expected it [02:27] resno, https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/network-configuration.html [02:27] so i was slightly lost :( [02:27] i just did that [02:27] oh, 10.04 [02:27] specifically [02:27] auto eth0 [02:27] iface eth0 inet dhcp [02:27] followed by sudo ifup eth0 [02:27] i think its different in 14.04 [02:27] oh really? [02:27] im on 14.04 [02:27] seems like it to me [02:27] but that seems to be working [02:27] :/ [02:27] what version you using? [02:27] its doing lots of dhcpdiscovers though [02:27] resno, 14.04 [02:27] seer-of-void: What we are doing is trying to capture the content of the action to a file "kern.log" and relay that file to us. [02:28] seer-of-void: Did you press Ctrl+C to stop the 'tail' ? If so, check if the log was captured by doing "ls -l /tmp/kern.log" and checking the size in bytes... it should be non-zero [02:28] Fantastic, thanks for the help, wilee-nilee! [02:29] TJ: ok hang on I'll just do it again [02:29] I was able to restore my old xorg.conf and get rid of fgrlx via command line, I'll be putting ctrl+alt+F1 in my long term memory alongside REISUB [02:29] seer-of-void: if the file is 0 bytes or doesn't exist, we'll have to do it the hard way, just do "tail -n 2000 /var/log/kern.log | pastebinit" [02:29] TJ: I press ctrl+c after I plug it in? [02:29] lenswipe: so the wierd thing is, i have loopback only there too [02:30] resno, that is weird [02:30] seer-of-void: Only press Ctrl+C once the messages have stopped scrolling... Ctrl+C is the 'break' key that stops the command and returns you to the command line [02:30] resno, well eth0 is in my config [02:30] resno, or rather, its appearing in my ifconfig now [02:30] but it has no IP : [02:30] :/ [02:30] its all good then [02:30] ashley_: I have an option for you [02:30] It might not fix your problem entirely, but it should help [02:30] resno, except it cant get an IP [02:30] TJ: ok but what I was saying before was that there wasn't anything scrolling when I did it that first time. I'll do it again now & see if there is anything [02:30] resno, it just sits there sending out DHCPDISCOVER requests [02:30] do a down then an up [02:30] okay [02:31] resno, DHCPDISCOVER [02:31] seer-of-void: OK... that tells us that nothing happened then! [02:31] ...and again [02:31] seer-of-void: Are you connecting the drive via USB? [02:31] Open settings, then go to "Window Manager Tweaks" [02:31] loads more [02:31] Uncheck "Enable display compositing" [02:31] TJ: if you mean generally, yes. if you mean did I yet, I just did now [02:32] TJ: no scrolling yet [02:32] seer-of-void: You'd expect to see about 10-20 lines from the kernel as it discovers and configures the device [02:33] resno, still DHCPDISCOVER === chamunks is now known as zz_chamunks [02:33] seer-of-void: Is the device a USB external hard drive? can you tell us the make/model? [02:33] resno, this machine has 3 network cards [02:34] do you know which one is connected for usre? [02:35] TJ: it's technically an internal rigged to--AH! we have messages [02:35] resno, is there a way to check what hardware eth0 is bound to? [02:35] JoobusJones, no problem. [02:35] TJ: ok a bunch of messages scrolled, I press ctrl+c now yes? [02:35] lenswipe: sure, i dont konw how tho [02:36] lenswipe: maybe lspci might help [02:36] what is the package for kernel headers? [02:37] resno, just got No working leases in persistant database - sleeping [02:37] seer-of-void: Yes [02:38] TJ: ok and you wanted the readout of which command again? [02:40] Hey guys... got an odd question: I have WordPress installed. I have a plugin that provides sftp uploads. I created a user account, and I'm able to ssh into the box with this user account. Yet when I provide the login details to the plugin, it throws an error. [02:40] seer-of-void: did you - before pligging in the drive do terminal command -> "tail -n0 -f /var/log/kern.log | tee /tmp/kern.log <- . [02:40] seer-of-void: "pastebinit /tmp/kern.log" [02:40] The odd part is, that the plugin says username/password incorrect... yet when I check the auth.log , it actually logged in just fine. [02:40] TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7540919/ [02:40] It logs in, and within the second, logs out. That's why it leads me to believe maybe it's an environment variable of the user I creatd? [02:40] *created [02:40] Bashing-om: yes [02:41] you dont have the correct permissions on the foler tha tit logs into [02:41] Any thoughts what I could be missing? [02:41] lenswipe: "lshw -C net" will show you the hardware devices and their "logical name: ethX" [02:41] DoMPatoneS, thanks! What I did was ... this new user, I added it to a new group. Then I gave chown newUser:newGroup directory/ [02:42] if you are chrooting the base folder needs to be owned by root [02:42] seer-of-void: OK, those messages are from the wireless LAN rekeying [02:42] So I *think* I'm goog? Any idea what... Well, I'm a n00b at this. Maybe the plugin gets sent to a [02:42] oh [02:42] googling chrooting now [02:42] seer-of-void: So, tell us exactly what this hard drive is, and how it is connected to the system [02:42] TJ-, thank you [02:42] resno, i changed it [02:43] the easiest way that i can think is chown the base folder to root and link the folder u need and chown to the user [02:43] DoMPatoneS, ok... and link... a symlink of those? [02:45] if I wanted to create my own software and put it on ubuntu repositories so that others could install it with apt-get [02:45] hi [02:45] how would I do that? [02:45] when I change my brightness in system settings, it resets to max after a reboot. How can I fix this? [02:45] TJ: it's basically an internal hard drive that's plugged into a thing to make it external, so it can be used by usb. I used it plenty of times back and forth between mine and my father's laptops, and there were never any problems. one day after unmounting and unplugging it from my father's laptop, I plugged it into mine and it just never showed up. it recognizes that it's being plugged in, you feel the drive spinning and everyth [02:45] ing, but it never shows up in the menu. [02:45] SuperNoeMan: upstream is the easiest [02:45] knob -> mount --bind olddir newdir chow user:user [02:46] 10-4 [02:46] ok... === Gallomimia_ is now known as Gallomimia [02:46] holstein: upstream? [02:46] what's that? [02:47] SuperNoeMan: debian is upstream [02:47] I just started checking out launchpad [02:47] ah ok [02:47] SuperNoeMan: the quickest way to get what you are saying..quickest and easiest, is to get your software into debian upstream.. it trickles in, and you apt-get it === Gaba1_ is now known as Gaba1 [02:47] seer-of-void: " thing to make it external" sounds very suspect to me... so what I will interpret it as is this: You have a SATA drive connected to a SATA-to-USB2 adapter connected to a USB2 port [02:48] evening gents, what is the easiest way to block a website with ubuntu [02:48] holstein: how do I find out about how to do that? [02:49] DrakkenWarr, you mean like parental controls? [02:49] or in the firewall [02:49] "trickles"? [02:49] I want to be able to control it real time [02:49] DrakkenWarr: easiest is just to do /etc/hosts... but that doesnt really scale [02:49] I was trying to do it through the hosts file, but that did not work [02:49] TJ: that's the one. apologies, been at all this for like 6 hours now, I'm getting lazy with names [02:49] as in, build it tonight, push it to some apt server somewhere and then download it ASAP [02:49] SuperNoeMan: that will *never* happen.. [02:50] SuperNoeMan: unless you are already a MOTU, or a debian developer.. or part of another distro. [02:50] seer-of-void: I've experienced several of those adapters, and I've had 5 fail so far! I bet if you connect the SATA drive *directly* to the motherboard with a known-good SATA cable, power the system up, that SATA drive will appear [02:50] holstein: what about launchpad PPA's? [02:50] (I only just read about them) [02:50] SuperNoeMan: what i mean by "trickles", is, it just comes to ubuntu.. you dont need to add it to ubuntu, that would just happen [02:51] SuperNoeMan: a ppa is not what you had asked.. you had asked about getting a package into the repositories [02:51] !ppa [02:51] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [02:51] SuperNoeMan: ppa's are great. thats not going to get a pacakge in the default sources.. [02:51] holstein: oh, well I don't care about default sources [02:52] I just want to be able to apt-get my shit [02:52] SuperNoeMan: please dont curse here [02:52] TJ: it's annoying as hell because 1) that kinda defeats the purpose, 2) I've had this thing for quite a few years and have had no problems. 3) I'm a bit suspicious that my father's laptop might've done something to it because there was something going on with his computer at the time, I think it was malware. And I will cry for days if everything is gone, but I don't think it is. (this hard drive has like 12 years worth of my stu [02:52] ff on it) [02:52] SuperNoeMan: you are welcome and encouraged to do what you like with your software [02:53] seer-of-void: My first check is always cables and controllers, followed by watching the kernel log to see if the device (or its controller) shows up [02:53] seer-of-void: So I'm 85% confident a direct connection will work [02:53] seer-of-void: if it does, simply get another SATA-to-USB2 adapter [02:54] TJ: fun... guess I'm opening up the desktop again. === LinksEz is now known as LinksEz1 [02:56] 14.04, how can I remove window decoration for specified application?

[02:57] jianhe, Specific details help. === aman is now known as Guest63073 [02:57] alfonsojon: CCSM could not doing this because unity plugin conflict with window decoration plugin [02:59] jianhe: Darn.

[02:59] You can do that on XFCE [02:59] jianhe, Cool, maybe someone can help, I don't use the browser. [03:00] alfonsojon: I am using unity ... [03:01] jianhe: I know, I just don't know how to do it in Unity. [03:02] Hi guys! [03:03] I've something problem during using "apt-get update" command. [03:04] prepangolin, Run it and pastebin all of it. [03:04] wilee-nilee: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7540945/ and http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7540967/ [03:04] TJ-: still no luck getting keyboard on the fussy bios [03:04] TJ: ok I decided I'm not doin all that tonight. I'll try it tomorrow and see what happens [03:05] seer-of-void: OK, get some rest :) [03:05] hi [03:05] Gallomimia: not having it in front of me its hard to diagnose further... I'm have slapped the side of the PC *hard* by now though, just on principle :p [03:05] prepangolin, That is the sources.list [03:05] TJ: indeed. and thanks again for all your help~ [03:06] it's a good idea. maybe i'll reseat the cards and drives and cpu [03:07] prepangolin, You said apt-get update was the issue [03:07] wilee-nilee: The former is the error message after "sudo apt-get update" and later is the content of the sources.list file. [03:07] i've done apt-get dist-upgrade but because some reason i cancel it [03:08] how to delete the downloaded package? [03:08] TJ-: i did stop trying for awhile while it sat at a black screen. i found a problem elsewhere on the network and moved to look at that. i did nmap on my subnet and found a doom backdoor. and the worst part about it is i can't identify the computer that has it :P [03:08] prepangolin, I see nothing but your sources list which looks fine, hows about actually running the update and showing every single bit. [03:08] I say I saw the askubuntu's Q&A already, but still did't spot this issue. [03:09] Gallomimia: oh that's easy; just block the target's IP at the firewall and wait until someone complains [03:09] prepangolin, Ah two links hold on my mistake. [03:10] TJ-: it's my private home network. i can't figure out who knows the password to get in thru wifi and has windows [03:10] all the other computers are off :P [03:11] prepangolin, Hash sums not matching is, what it is, an apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade would help to show. I suspect it is a held package situation which is a partial upgrade which is not a good idea to run. [03:11] Gallomimia: cycle the passphrase and make it truly random "pwgen -s 16 1" [03:12] hi [03:12] ah you've tripped on my secretive problem. i changed the password for the isp-provided-router months ago and forgot it :P [03:13] right around the same time i stopped geeking out at home all the time and started working 70h per week 3 out of 4 weeks [03:13] hi [03:13] hi [03:13] hi [03:13] utopian ask your ubuntu questions [03:13] utopian: please stop that. [03:13] Alright is there anything other thatn apt-get for ubuntulog_ [03:13] ubuntu [03:13] or at least don't continue to do it [03:13] I think debian has aptitutde, does ubuntu have that also [03:14] yes [03:14] Let's me check it. [03:14] Nice [03:14] utopian: yes, and apt also :D [03:14] utopian aptitude is available, but apt is the default. synaptic is also available. [03:14] Awesome -^.^- aptitude was fairly new when I stopped using debian [03:14] My second distro I ever purchased officially was debian woody [03:14] aptitude seems very nice [03:15] !ot | utfans05 [03:15] utfans05: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[03:23] troy_cambridge: you can only use one at a time [03:23] troy_cambridge: choose the one you want to use, and close the rest [03:24] holstein, I have already tried that unsuccesfully [03:24] troy_cambridge: i suggest, if you dont understand, or know where the error is, just reboot the machine, and before running anything, open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and share errors [03:24] I'm needing actual advice. [03:24] Does anyone know what time the phone ubuntu sell? There ubuntutouch official version? What time?

Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [03:28] highlight test [03:28] highlight test dompatones [03:28] agspy1: you stated you cannot boot your windows machine.. the ubuntu live disc is not made to boot windows [03:28] agspy1: you can only boot the live environment [03:29] dompatones [03:29] DoMPatoneS ask your ubuntu questions [03:30] Theres not much to elaborate on. I have windows 8. I just downloaded the iso for ubuntu, burned it to a disc. (Actually I burned it twice, once with the extracted files, one without the extracted files) I set my priority to boot off of the disc, just so I could test it out to see if I like it. But it wont recognize either of the discs. It still jjust boots into windows 8. [03:30] I have ubuntu === johndropper_ is now known as johndropper [03:30] hey guys, i am trying to update/upgrade my server and when I login I see 7 new packages 7 are security updates. I do sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade but this is what happens : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7541117/ [03:31] agspy1 you don't "extract" files to make an ubuntu boot disc [03:31] agspy1, "extracted files" sounds really not nice [03:31] Explain what I did wrong. O.o [03:31] agspy1, also usb sticks are good for you :) [03:32] I cant find mine. D: I think my dad broke it. :/ [03:32] dauntl3ss it happens. nothing much to worry about. Held back packages generally get fixed in fairly quick time [03:32] cfhowlett: but I only see 3 packages held back the thing says there are 7 -- so that's 4 not being accounted for [03:32] nothing to worry about too? [03:32] all are security updates T_T [03:32] agspy1, http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/burn-a-dvd-on-windows [03:32] dauntl3ss run this command: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [03:33] oh yeah that's a big one [03:33] 222MB [03:33] and all 7 packages [03:33] thank you :) [03:33] is it always reccomended to update the distro? [03:34] But like I said. I tried it twice, the first time I extracted, felt kinda retarded for doing so. So I burned it again on a brand new disc as just the .iso file. [03:34] dauntl3ss well, security upgrades certainly. [03:34] you may try sudo apt-get -f install [03:34] agspy1, Assuming the disc is bootable, are you aware of the UEFI issues with W8 factory installs? [03:34] cfhowlett, thanks a mill :) [03:35] Anyone else have loooong wait before laptop brightness keys actually do anything? Every now and then it can take > 5min before scren suddenly starts to obey all those commands given before [03:35] pngo_ thank you [03:35] dauntl3ss happy to help [03:35] It wasnt a factory install. I did all possible research on this before coming here. This is a windows 7 machine, that I upgraded. [03:35] So I dont have a UEFI option in my BIOS [03:35] agspy1: i would take the media to another machine. then, you will have a more broad data point [03:36] agspy1: you dont have the option? or you have no restrictions? [03:36] agspy1, Cool, an important isue 99% of the time with W8. Are you aware of the boot menu outside the bios? [03:36] Uhhhh... I guess not? [03:37] agspy1, On the bios boot splash it tells you the keys to hit. [03:37] holstein: I have the bios for windows 7. I can set the priorities for boot. Thats it. No UEFI [03:38] wilee: 1.) Mine boots so quick you wouldnt be able to read them. 2.) From the thousands of times ive tried to see which buttons, I dont believe they say anything besides "F12 for Network Boot" [03:38] agspy1: there is no bios for windows 7, BIOS is universal for all OS's [03:38] agspy1 really suggest you stop; go to the store, buy a 4 GB or larger USB and make your bootable media. LOT less painful that burning CD's ... and NO EXTRACTION required [03:38] agspy1: if you have another machine, you can see if the media boots there.. you cant just copy the data over to the cd.. you have to do an image copy, using the iso as the source [03:39] I know. [03:39] agspy1, A menu you want to know, look it up on the web, it is a per-session boot, I have seen it listed in manuals, which are also on the web. [03:40] agspy1, This will prove whether it is the disc or not. [03:40] agspy1 look in your computer documentation or on the OEM support site to find your bios menu command [03:42] Hey! [03:42] Hey [03:42] JoobusJones ask your ubuntu questions [03:42] I'm trying to compile an OpenGL application, but ld is telling me that it can't find -lGL; I have confirmed that libGL.so exists and that I have libgl1-mesa-dev installed and updated. [03:43] Sohron: Actually there are different BIOS. On a computer that had w8 preinstalled you have the option to mess with the UEFI. On mine it does not. :) [03:43] <_2_sabrinahotgir> hi [03:43] Every article I've found about my problem (like http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18406369/qt-cant-find-lgl-error) have had solutions that are unhelpful [03:44] agspy1: you think its the iso that you downloaded? [03:44] agspy1: but the basic input/output system is the sam agspy1 [03:44] !md5 | agspy1 [03:44] agspy1: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [03:44] agspy1: you think its the DVD you have made? can you get to the integrety check? if not, have you tried booting it on other hardware? [03:45] There are so many responses I dont know where to start [03:46] agspy1: forget me then, i've got nothing musch to offer others have already stated [03:46] much* [03:46] agspy1, We all have been there, ask questions if it helps. [03:47] agspy1 start here: VERIFY your downloaded ISO. YES, verify, YES every time. THEN verify the boot media you create with the ISO. holstein sent you md5sum link. [03:47] agspy1, preface whom your asking with their nick, the tab will complete nicks, tyoe a few letters of one hit the tab. [03:47] Any ideas on why I'd be unable to locate lGL even with libgl1-mesa-dev installed? [03:48] JoobusJones: maybe something hard-coded in ubuntu that is not in the place that is expected [03:48] holstein: I am currently looking at the md5. It being extremely early in the morning, I am finding it hard to understand. .-. [03:49] holstein: I feel like I had this working not long ago; I just installed the latest fglrx driver and now things are weird [03:49] holstein: libGL.so is in a sane place and properly linked up [03:49] agspy1: you get the sum of the iso you downloaded.. and match it with the sum of the one on the site [03:50] JoobusJones: use the repo version [03:51] holstein: of fglrx? [03:51] That's stuck on like 13.x still, and doesn't even support 14.04, lol [03:51] Only the latest beta release of fglrx supports 14.04 and OpenGL 4.4 [03:52] They are the same. [03:52] Whoops. [03:52] JoobusJones: 14.04 has a version.. [03:53] holstein: AMD's proprietary drivers don't officially support 14.04 until 14.6, which is presently in beta [03:53] JoobusJones: if you want one that doesnt come from ubuntu, you have to seek support where it comes from. [03:53] holstein: "MD5 Check Sums are the same" [03:53] It's not the driver issue [03:53] It's ubuntu being silly about something [03:54] holstein so you checked BOTH the downloaded ISO and the CD? [03:54] agspy1: ok.. so, now you move on to the media you created.. can you get to the integrity check? have you tried it on another machine? [03:55] holstein: I dont own another machine. Its only me and my laptop [03:55] agspy1: can you get to the integrity check on the media you created? [03:56] agspy1: you dont have to "own" the machine to boot the media on it.. thats why i didnt ask you how many computers you owned.. i asked if you had tried the live media on another machine.. and that answer is no? correct? [03:56] holstein: Thats exactly what im saying. [03:56] agspy1: you made the DVD? correct? and *onlhy* tried booting it on your one laptop? correct? [03:56] Yep [03:56] agspy1: how about this? have you tried the integrity check? [03:57] No idea what youre talking about. :) [03:57] agspy1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/CDIntegrityCheck [03:58] agspy1: then say so.. or ask.. will you please try running the integrity check on the media and let the volunteers here know if you are not able to run it, or get to that menu? [03:59] holstein: Ok. I cant get to the menu. [04:01] agspy1: what boot orded do you have set in BIOS? [04:02] Optical drive, external, network, hard drive [04:02] okay [04:02] no problemo there [04:02] you should really checksum the dvd agspy1 [04:04] Sohron: I am looking at the BootFromCD page. How am I supposed to checksum if the files look like the first picture? [04:05] agspy1: if you don't know how to checksum a dvd in windows, i can't help, i haven't used windows for ten years [04:06] Ubuntu 14.04 - Wifi problems - Qualcomm chipset - Keeps disconnecting. [04:08] maybe this isn't the place, but the nicklist in ubuntu is huge for the nicklist buffer in weechat-curses -- any way to resolve this issue? === pantsareoff is now known as TARDISGuy [04:11] Help.

[04:44] getting some serious internal errors throughout my system too === e is now known as Guest13257 [04:45] hi fellas, can i ask a question about calibre in this channel? [04:45] calibre on ubuntu [04:45] @holstein chromium browser works. I guess thats fine. But I was having massive Keyboard lag before reinstall [04:46] ? [04:49] Radon_3, ifit is on Ubuntu, go forit [04:49] for it* [04:49] is there a reason why environment variables set in /etc/environment don't propagate anymore in trusty ? [04:51] Hello All friend [04:53] phunyguy: thank you, yes it sorta does, I have set my system proxy settings in ubuntu to use a local proxy, and I expect calibre to fetch the info using that proxy, but it seems calibre is not willing to use system wide proxy cause it is still not capable to fetche the info from some news sources [04:53] what should I do? [04:54] some apps simply cannot use a proxy without being tricked into doing so. [04:54] I can't remember the names of them, but there are some socks proxy wrapper apps out there [04:54] basically runs the app within a wrapper that redirects all traffic from it through a socks proxy of your choosing. [04:55] hey phunyguy, I just set up alpine with a zenburn theme just to read gmail... I can't decide if thats geeky or just lame [04:55] oh...k...? [04:55] yeah, I have read in the calibre manual that I should use the http_proxy switch but I just don't know how. I am trying to figure it out... [04:55] heh a text based email client [04:55] oh, so it is in the Calibre docs... [04:55] by the way I have been almost a month off windows, thank you ubuntu [04:56] <3 I am so proud this is the best day of my life [04:56] Radon_3_, typically in Ubuntu the proxy settings do all that for you [04:56] Radon_3_: *claps* [04:56] can you pastebin the output of `export | grep http`? [04:56] Bsims: have you tried mutt? [04:57] phunyguy: yeah that is whatI hoped would happen like it has happened in the past, but I think a restart might do the trick, I am goiung for it [04:57] this conversation is becoming a bit offtopic [04:57] ok [04:57] Hello All friend how r you [04:57] hello! [04:58] is ubuntu linux demage the viruse? [04:58] I don't know what that means :( [04:58] i mean other operating system need Anivirus for OS [04:59] linux need for Aniviruse Installation? [04:59] Saeedullah_, typically antivirus programs on Linux are mainly to scan windows drives. [04:59] there aren't many virus for Linux, no. [05:00] it linux Operating system demage the virus or not? [05:00] I don't know what "demage" means [05:00] demage means destory [05:01] ok, I still don't know what you are trying to asl. [05:01] ask* [05:01] my question is that [05:01] Saeedullah_, what is your native language? maybe there is a LoCo channel that would be better suited? [05:01] when some time the win xp have virus [05:02] then win xp is not working correctly [05:02] is it linux have virus? [05:02] so you want something that won't catch a virus? Or do you want to use Linux to clean Windows XP? [05:02] Not to be a grammar nazi, but it's "damage" [05:02] my native language is pashto [05:02] Not "demage" [05:02] yes [05:03] Sachiru, there is a definite language barrier here. Let's not do that. [05:03] And although linux has viruses, they are very rare and very limited in what they can damage. [05:04] Saeedullah_, I think Ubuntu is what you want. Install it and try it out! [05:05] Anyhow, viruses do not cross-infect [05:05] A virus that is designed for windows will not do anything when placed on a Linux system, and vice versa [05:06] And since 95% of all viruses out there are designed for windows, using Linux means that by default you are protected from 95% of all viruses, even without antivirus software. [05:07] Of course Antivirus software for linux exists (ClamAV), but it exists mainly for servers where data is shared with Windows machines, so that if a virus somehow gets onto the Windows share it doesn't affect everyone attempting to access the share (that and other similar use cases). [05:07] and we lost him [05:07] And yep [05:07] Must be bad afghan internet [05:07] probably. [05:08] you are 100% correct by the way. [05:08] well said. [05:08] afghan internel LOL [05:08] internet* [05:09] ok, let's move on. [05:10] WEll [05:10] I'd contend the 95% figure [05:10] I'm thinking more along the lines of 99%, but I don't have citations [05:11] unimportant in this topic. [05:11] Aargh [05:12] Two 8GB flash drives configured as RAID1 mirror, LVM on top of them, installing Ubuntu to LVM [05:12] No swap space allocated on drives [05:12] Still erroring in installation [05:12] have you checked your source media for defects? [05:13] and is 8GB enough? [05:13] RAID1 with two 8 gig drives, still makes 8 gigs of space. [05:13] Source media md5 sum checks OK [05:13] And it's Lubuntu. Source media is only 600MB in size and official documentation says that the minimum requirements is 4.7 GB [05:13] So theoretically it should work. [05:14] anyone know of any truecrypt alternatives that works across all platforms? Windows, linux, osx? [05:14] what's the problem with truecrypt again? [05:14] website got hacked [05:14] (I think) [05:14] oh, so its not real? [05:15] anyways, Sachiru not sure man. [05:15] no one knows yet. It may be hacked, or a dead-man’s switch [05:15] LOL [05:15] their website makes no sense. Telling people to use bitlocker as an alternative lol [05:15] yep, and this topic is offtopic. [05:15] :) [05:15] except for maybe an alternative on ubuntu [05:16] yea it is, but I don’t know where else to ask. [05:16] well is it for Ubuntu? [05:16] What does TrueCryot accomplish? [05:16] Crypt* [05:17] everyzone [05:17] @Barrin: Google "GnuPG" and "GPG4Win" [05:17] !truecrypt | phunyguy [05:17] phunyguy: Truecrypt is a free open-source on-the-fly disk encryption software. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TruecryptHiddenVolume [05:17] thanks bazhang [05:22] @Barrin: Anyhow the consensus is that only the 7.2 version is suspect [05:22] The 7.1 version appears to be clean. [05:22] #truecrypt vilambit [05:23] Current theories is that "We believe that there is either a power conflict in the dev team or psychological issues, coersion of some form, or a hacker with access to site and keys." [05:24] what is GNU Stand? [05:24] Saeedullah, you mean what does it stand for? [05:24] as in what is the acronym? [05:25] yes [05:25] GNU's Not Unix [05:25] GNU's Not Unix ok but what is GNU? [05:25] hey guys, im trying to install amd drivers for my card, but the catalyst control center (administrative) fails immediately after the prompt for password no matter what i input [05:26] the regular catalyst ontrol center runs fie [05:26] Saeedullah: http://www.gnu.org/ [05:26] Saeedullah, do you have an ubuntu support question? [05:26] Saeedullah: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU [05:26] Saeedullah: GNU's Not Unix [05:27] hunt, where did you get the amd drivers? [05:27] apt-get [05:27] Saeedullah: G = GNU , N = Not , U = Unix [05:27] thanx dear all of you now i am checking about GNU [05:27] hunt, hmm, maybe a bug report needs to be filed. [05:27] It's a recursive acronym [05:28] No problem :) [05:28] Kinda like PHP [05:28] Means nothing at all. [05:28] ben14 dose it right [05:28] so much offtopic.... [05:28] G = GNU , N = Not , U = Unix [05:28] As I sad [05:28] *said [05:28] phunguy: that sucks! i mean i honestly am not going to change anything at the moment but damn i wish i had the option! also the entire catalyst system is very not-unixy [05:28] Recursive acronym [05:28] can we please keep the discussion ubuntu support related? [05:29] sometimes aptitude is needed to resolve dependency issues for amd (nvidia) graphics I don't know if that applies [05:29] recursive acronym means? [05:29] Saeedullah, please, enough. [05:30] Saeedullah: lol [05:30] Saeedullah: Google is your friend, please use it :) [05:30] Saeedullah: now research WINE and you'll start to get it :P [05:30] dear i want to know about Ubuntu [05:30] i interst to learne it [05:30] so ask your Ubuntu question please. [05:30] Saeedullah: you've not asked a single ubuntu related support question yet. please keep this channel clear for that purpose [05:30] please keep in mind this is a support channel. [05:31] ok === e is now known as e^ [05:32] Everyone: There is an offtopic channel at #ubuntu-offtopic for general banter. [05:33] what is the ubuntu command syntax for command? [05:35] I want to install cadence in ubuntu [05:35] any one know that [05:35] so now that i have this new driver my games are broken :'( [05:35] the whole catalyst situation is far too sketchy [05:35] ritesh, hi [05:36] mahesh_: http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/Repositories for ubuntu sources to kxstudio having cadence and others. try #opensourcemusicians [05:36] hunt: the games are fine.. the new driver is not supporting the 3d that the games require [05:37] holstein: how is that my previously driver free computer has better 3d support then the proprietary one [05:37] holstein, i am not getting any thing on that website [05:37] where i can download [05:37] hunt: the open driver can provide 3d [05:37] mahesh_: you can download wherever the creator provides a download. but the site i linked has sources, PPA's, that have cadence and others [05:38] hi threre [05:38] holstein: 3d still works but gmod crashes [05:38] holstein: how do i get the open drivers btw? are they better than the standards? [05:38] hunt: the open ones are just in the kernel.. they are not "better" or "worse".. they are different [05:38] holstein, thanks for your copertion [05:38] am getting [05:39] holstein: the open ones are already installed? the problem with the open ones is there very inefficient and seem to run my gpu fan at max always [05:39] holstein: the problem with the proprietary one is that it fucks up a lot of the graphics [05:39] please watch the language [05:40] phunyguy sorry forgot this was an official channel [05:40] hunt: not really.. the problem with proprietary graphics and hardware that do not promise linux support is that they can be not all that great [05:40] hunt, no worries :) [05:40] holstein: im telling you based on whats happening [05:41] holstein: this is literally whats happenning [05:41] hunt: im not doubting you one bit [05:41] holstein: ... "not really" ... [05:41] hunt: im just explaining why the driver can be not providing you 3d support.. you werent promised 3d support [05:41] hunt: if the open driver works better for you, i suggest using it [05:42] Is there a way to get CPU temp in Ubuntu without installing LM-sensors [05:42] NIC isn't working so I need something built in [05:42] N300ZX, you need software to interact with the sensors. [05:43] holstein, i getting tar.xz file for Cadence how can i install in ubuntu [05:43] holstein: i dont know ... either way im getting lower fps then on windows as far as i can tell. ideally i just want a fast driver that works. how frequently are the open drivers updated? [05:43] mahesh_, read the readme that comes with the tar [05:43] mahesh_, they are all different. [05:44] hunt: sure. you were promised windows support for the hardware.. so, windows performance will likely be better [05:44] hunt: if you say the open one worked better, use it.. they are updated as needed.. and when changes come [05:45] hunt: i understand that you want a fast driver that works, and ubuntu nor linux are preventing AMD from providing you with that [05:46] holstein: if only the open driver didnt misuse my electronics!!! [05:46] hunt: you said it worked [05:46] hunt: the "gpu fan at max always" isn't true anymore [05:46] hunt, maybe you can get a full refund for what you paid for that driver :( [05:47] (the free one) [05:47] wols: how do i update it? it still sounds like its at max to me [05:47] the point is, you paid for the AMD hardware, AMD should provide you the proper driver to make it work, or the ability for the Linux kernel devs to write a proper driver [05:48] phunyguy: true, they should, but im trying to be practical here, im not going to get that from amd. im really just looking for a solution for my own problems [05:48] hunt, well, that is where we stand. [05:48] hunt: practical is the company that makes the hardware supporting it.. ubuntu is not blocking that [05:48] the drivers are closed source. That is the best we can do. [05:49] i mean personally practical, i have no influence over what amds doing, im just trying to work with what i can get [05:49] hunt: your problem is just that.. amd is doing what they promised you.. providing windows support, not linux [05:49] hunt, then you are stuck with broken 3d, or a high speed fan [05:49] side not, screen shots? [05:49] hunt: you'll routinely make compromises to run systems that are not supported [05:49] (of fullscreen processes) [05:50] or give your money to companies that provide proper support for linux [05:50] hunt: i suggest something like system76 in the future, where they take care of this for you [05:50] hunt: since kernel 3.13 it's already in the kernel. google for "radeon dpm" to see how it works or how you can enable it [05:50] wols, good suggestion if it works [05:50] wols: how do i check my kernel version? [05:50] uname -r [05:50] (at command line) [05:51] if you are on 14.04, then you are on 3.13 [05:52] i am on 14.04... it says dpm is enabled by default. why would my fans appear to me running at max or at least far higher then they are with the proprietary driver? if it changes anything the only drivers ive installed so far are the amd ones [05:52] hunt: i have several boxes like that.. [05:52] holstein: does dpm just not work properly? [05:52] hunt: i make compromises based on the situation i need [05:52] hunt: ? [05:52] hunt: its the hardware, friend.. its not intended to support linux [05:52] hunt: if you have fglrx installed then they are running and not the free ones [05:53] hunt: thats the issue.. i wasnt promised linux support for them.. nothing is broken. .everything is working as intended [05:53] hi is youtube-dl available in gui? [05:53] wols: my fglrx drivers (which are running right now) are far quieter then the free ones from before i installed this driver [05:53] hunt: one is using the openchrome driver which has gotten *much* better [05:54] !info youtube-dl [05:54] youtube-dl (source: youtube-dl): downloader of videos from YouTube and other sites.

I'm just concern is it official available. [05:55] hmmm... do you get any errors during the install? [05:55] but i'm in the middle of working on it and the damn keyboard won't work in basic installer. works fine in grub [05:55] shunya_chakra: ? [05:55] oh yeah dozens [05:55] shunya_chakra: its from the repos, install and use it if you like [05:56] the latest run of installer seemed to work out. i was shocked. i felt naked [05:56] holstein, youtube-dl gui version [05:56] shunya_chakra: i dont use it.. a web browser is a gui.. [05:56] Gallomimia, if you are asking for support, some of the errors your are getting would help a ton. [05:57] shunya_chakra: look at the source of what you are talking about and see if you trust it.. [05:57] shunya_chakra: youtube-dl allways breaks [05:57] right now, i'm in a grub commandline. i can't even get an installer to run. keyboard stops working soon as anything more complicated than bios control or grub starts [05:57] holstein, ok [05:57] pentagonpie, it works good for my unstable itnernet [05:57] Gallomimia, but what about in the ubuntu installer? [05:57] internete [05:58] phunyguy: no it never gets past language selection [05:58] i had it working yesterday [05:58] shunya_chakra: what i meant was, google updates youtube so you wont be able to use youtube-dl [05:58] then i got some bios reset error and it stopped doing that [05:59] Gallomimia, have you checked the integrity of the install source? [05:59] hi [05:59] i guess it might have gotten broken since [05:59] shunya_chakra, what about flashgot? Does it support? [05:59] pentagonpie, is there any good alternative [05:59] but i've got two different installers here that fail at the same point, and they've both worked before [05:59] weird. Wish I knew. [05:59] wigirc, flashgot, i haven't used it.. it got funny name.. :) [05:59] so thats two of us [06:00] 3 or 4 if you count the other people who have examined this problem [06:00] shunya_chakra: from what I understand, youtube-dl developers always update to fix that :) [06:00] im ready to reflash the bios [06:00] don't do that [06:00] but from all i can see, its the same version as the one i've got already [06:00] Gallomimia, it can't hurt.... unless you aren't careful ;) [06:00] yeah [06:00] then it can really hurt :P [06:00] oh well. new mobo i guess [06:00] yup pentagonpie i also read it in some blog.... always use updated youtube-dl.

[07:58] somsip: each PPA version can contain only one version of each package, as far as I see [07:58] dfrank, look closer they probably are release specific. [07:58] dfrank: no. An example of this is the deadsnakes PPA for python, like I said. [07:58] somsip: is there some PPA repository with at least two versions of the same package?

What is your real question? [08:04] somsip: I mean exactly version number. "python2.6" is a package name. Say, when I want to install firefox of version 11, I can type: sudo aptitude install firefox=11.0+build1-0ubuntu4 [08:04] dfrank: so you want to install an old version of FF?

I've already found deb package of firefox, so right now I don't need to install older firefox [08:05] it would be awesome if it did tho [08:06] dfrank: you can always find the ubuntu version that the package you want was built for and run it in a vm [08:06] dfrank i haven't followed, but here's a howto, try if it's possible http://www.ubuntuask.com/q/answers-how-do-i-create-a-ppa-71510.html [08:06] dfrank: I've never heard of such a thing, so EOT for me [08:07] dfrank: i went off on a similar tangent recently and eventually gave up and made a vm [08:07] somsip: sorry my English isn't perfect, what is "EOT"?

I like ubuntu and debian but I hate its total dislike of downgrading anything.

[08:11] np [08:12] slimjimflim: i know i can, but it is all dirty hacks. I believe it's not so technically hard to implement, say, an automatic way to undo 'aptitude upgrade', it would save a lot of time for me. but, it isn't supported and most likely never will be, because it's agains ubuntu (and debian) philosophy [08:12] *against [08:12] yep [08:12] dfrank: it's all about the dependencies [08:13] dfrank: honestly, if you really want to test an old version of ff, just do it in a vm [08:13] that's the easiest way [08:13] slimjimflim: no. It's all about philosophy.

[09:13] thecha: vim is "more improved", mostly vi is only a symlink to vim nowadays [09:13] thecha: Sometimes vi is a smaller version of vim. [09:13] when i type "vi filename" into ubuntu terminal does vim or vi open [09:13] and what is the diference [09:13] thecha: But they are infact the same application, then calling vim using 'vi' will cause it to open in vi-emulation mode. [09:14] thecha: So you get a more restricted, more compatible set of features. If you actually prefer the full functionality, then use 'vim', not 'vi'. [09:14] what does vim have that vi doesnt [09:14] thecha: Everything. :) [09:14] because i was able to work with vi out of the box [09:14] everything? [09:14] thecha: word completion. tabs for files. [09:14] can you list all things included in "everything" ? thanks [09:14] ewww [09:14] thecha: No. [09:15] word ompletion while i am writing bash files isnt that dangerous? [09:15] tabs sounds gfood though [09:15] why would that be dangerous? [09:15] I want to change the (default) theme of my ubuntu 12.04 instllation, how can i get a different look and feel out of the system without messing it up? [09:16] it might autocomplete some key command btu doing it wrong and thus creating a bash virus that will destroy the world [09:16] or maybe even my computer [09:16] thecha: honestly, thats nonsense. [09:16] thecha: You have to explicitly set word completion, it's ^p unless I'm mistaken. [09:16] :( [09:16] thecha: open vim, type ":h vi-differences", read [09:16] thecha: It also has syntax highlighting. [09:16] so no world destruction by accident? [09:16] wow [09:16] any ideas folks [09:16] thecha: No nonsense by accident. [09:16] ? [09:16] syntax highlighting sounds pretty neat [09:17] thecha: No. But it also doesn't have M-x bufferfly [09:17] thecha: (For THAT, you need emacs) [09:17] ok so now that i understand the difference between vi and copycat vim what is the difference between vi/m and emacs? [09:17] thecha: different editors. [09:17] is there an advantage to use emacs over vi/m [09:17] !atroll | thecha (not a question for this channel) [09:17] thecha: Of course. vim does not have M-x butterfly. [09:17] but whne i only code in c+++ is there any benefeit to learn emacs?

[10:21] Ubuntu which has been installed through Windows 7 suddenly stopped booting. When I choose Ubuntu and it freezes on a "purple" background. Pressing ctrl+alt+del and choosing Ubuntu again had no luck. Please help. :| [10:21] user123321 "through windows 7"... you mean wubi? [10:22] MonkeyDust: Umm, not sure what's it called. I installed Ubuntu while on Windows 7. No virtual machine. [10:22] Yes, through wubi so [10:22] Maybe it's wubi. [10:23] yes [10:23] user123321 wubi is dying, dead, no longer developed or supported. consider your options [10:24] user123321 such installation is supposed to be used for testing reasons only [10:24] user123321: but... I have doubts, user123321, whats version of Ubuntu are you using for wubi? It's strange if it is in 14.014 [10:24] sorry, 14.04 [10:25] for testing only is a dvdlive [10:25] wubi is not supported anymore, not for a while in fact [10:25] yes, but, please, user123321 are you using 14.04 version? [10:26] user123321 start windows. install virtualbox. download 32 bit lubuntu or xubuntu. Install x/l/ubuntu into the virtualbox. OR you could do a proper dual boot [10:26] It's 12.xx latest, LTS. [10:26] the latest LTS is 14.04 [10:27] Oh, maybe then it was released recently? hmm. [10:27] I recommend you install on another disk or a partition with Ubuntu 14.04 [10:27] user123321: It was released in April. [10:27] or their familiar like Lubuntu, Xubuntu, whatever you want [10:29] Oh, mine seems yo be old, downloaded around jan it seems - ubuntu-12.04.3-desktop-amd64 [10:29] to be old* [10:29] yes, it's old === adellam_ is now known as adellam [10:29] user123321 it's still supported, but current version is 12.04.4 [10:30] cfhowlett: Would it have been updated to that version through update manager? Because I make sure it's updated. That file name, I got it from what's inside my Windows. [10:31] user123321 depends on the command you gave. apt-get update would not change the version. apt-get dist-upgrade would upgrade all packages to the latest available in the distro, i.e. 12.04.3 to 12.04.4 [10:31] So, wubi is out? I should either, 1. VM, OR, 2. dual boot? [10:31] user123321: I suggest you to make a clean install, because through an update could make some problems by the sources [10:31] user123321: Use a VM. Wubi never was "in" besides for testing purposes. [10:31] user123321 yep. [10:32] cfhowlett: I did through GUI update manager :| [10:33] user123321 easiest thing to do: choose the distro you want (14.04 is LTS). download the correct ISO. choose your install method. clean install. [10:34] : I'm agree with cfhowlett, I suggest you a clean install. Is the best option [10:34] Cool. Thanks. [10:34] cfhowlett, but before backup all important stuff [10:35] user123321, but before backup all important stuff [10:35] wigirc user123321 EXACTOMUNDO! backup ^3 [10:35] yes, of course, backup is better thing to do before a clean install [10:35] Cool. Umm, if I don't have a DVD atm to write, how can I dual boot? [10:36] if you don't have a dvd, so, you can install through usb [10:36] user123321 USB? [10:37] in 12.xx, there is a USB application to make write an iso image to an usb device [10:37] Cool, I'll try. [10:37] I don't remember, I think it's called "USB Creator" [10:37] user123321, if you use windows ultraiso makes boot-usb [10:37] !usb|user123321 [10:37] user123321: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [10:37] anyone could recommend a monitoring tool to remotly monitor 40 mixed windows/linux servers?

[10:38] user123321: Not at all [10:41] Right now I have this NTFS partition on which I have installed wubi Ubuntu, so would I be able to dual-boot install Ubuntu on that partition (by formatting to Linux partition type, ofc), without messing up my Windows? [10:42] user123321: BAckup everything, install Ubuntu as dualboot. [10:42] bekks: backup even my Windows? [10:42] user123321: Sure. [10:42] And then, remove the Ubuntu installed via Wubi [10:42] or so you will get two Ubuntu [10:43] sr71black: Oh, how can I do that? [10:43] After upgrading, my gnome desktop now has this area between the bottom of my app, and the bottom bar that shows my running apps. And next to the switcher there is a number like (1) (2) etc and that shows the apps that are running that have some attention needed, but for instance xchat only flashes if i look there. how can i fix this behavior? [10:43] Wubi is like an program, you can remove it in add-remove programm of windows [10:43] like another one in windows [10:44] user123321 backup your ubuntu documents somewhere, then remove wubi in Windows 'add or remove programs' [10:44] MonkeyDust: Cool. [10:45] MonkeyDust: Oh gosh, I just realized I can't login to Ubuntu at first instance :O o.O [10:46] user123321 did you have any importants docs in ubuntu? [10:48] files, perhaps - not always docs [10:48] yes, files, rather [10:48] Hmm, it's alright. I can let them go away.

[12:50] MonkeyDust;~ but always goes to homepage [12:51] RamiC: you should turn off the indepent (I think that's the word) graphics card when you are not using it [12:51] Armag3dd0n1: congratulations ;) [12:51] I used the sensors command, it got to 88degrees so I turned it off a bit for now [12:51] indepent is the nvidia or the intel one? [12:52] is there a way to set a program to auto restart when it crashes ?

[13:19] was thinking the same thing [13:19] i seem to find differing accounts online trndr, lots of people seem to say the other way around, il try it anyway to see === sign is now known as systemd === systemd is now known as sign [13:22] Is it strange that I'm not seeing any performance difference between Unity and XFCE (Xubuntu)? [13:22] I'm running a 5 year old first gen Intel dual core laptop with 4 gb of ram. [13:23] konadr, according to man apt-get it should be -y upgrade, but upgrade -y worked for me. So the differing accounts make sense [13:23] rmoore are they both fast or both slow? [13:23] both slow [13:24] well. not horribly slow [13:24] just a bit slugish. especially with the Software Center [13:24] hi, i got youtube-dl version of 2nd month but on there site they also release the version of 5th. [13:24] how can i get htat [13:24] that [13:24] i mean update? [13:25] hmm same thing happens trndr, quite odd [13:26] konadr, you could try --yes, or piping yes into apt-get === pr4ning is now known as pr3p [13:27] Helo [13:27] shunya_chakra, the version in softwarecenter is the latest, same as the site 14.05.19 [13:31] 5/70 [13:31] OerHeks, ok I installed it from terminal is now i need to rid out old version? [13:33] shunya_chakra, what old version? how did you install the previous one? [13:33] shunya_chakra sudo apt-get autoremove [13:33] ya i was trying the pipe just now trndr to see if that ran [13:34] OerHeks, MonkeyDust nv, problem solved.. i used pip [13:34] thanks for help! :) [13:34] python is awesome it's got its on installing python packages === kat is now known as Guest7262 [13:38] any idea when ubuntu will update xbmc in the software centre? [13:38] 13.0 is out but it's showing 12.3 still :/ [13:39] Hi All, OK I just installed ubuntu 14.04, I setup a root user (yes I know but my company requires it). I can su - to the root user with the password without issue. If I ssh as the root user I get password denied even though the password is the same as when i do a su -. I have confirmed that the sshd_config is not blocking the root user and /var/log/auth.log is saying I am entering the wrong password for root. I have done this at lea [13:39] and I copy\paste the password and the password I enter via ssh is the same as when I do a su - but the ssh password does not work, any ideas? [13:40] Armag3dd0n1: it won't, you'll have to wait untill the next version of ubuntu comes out [13:40] really? [13:40] wut [13:40] Armag3dd0n1 or use a PPA with the more recent version, but that's not supported here [13:41] Ok I have Windows 7. Using a partitional manager, I have formatted one partition with Ext3 and one "adjacent" area with Linux Swap. Now, should I use automatic or manual partitionaing when installing Ubuntu (dual boot)? [13:41] Armag3dd0n1: thats the point, people work very hard to make sure the 60.000 or so packages you can install work together properly, and then again for newer versions in each release. It wouldn't be stable to continuously upgrade all programs all the time [13:42] user123321 manual if you know what you're doing [13:42] user123321: delete the swap and ext3 partition, then choose 'automatic' during install [13:42] delete the partitions? ah. [13:43] user123321: yes, the installer will automatically use the free space for ubuntu [13:43] Can I delete it using Ubuntu setup? [13:43] salut tout le monde [13:43] yes, if you select 'try ubuntu without installing', and then use gparted to delete the partitions [13:43] where is the french server? [13:43] !fr [13:43] Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [13:44] hmm, so I'll make them unallocated space then? [13:44] I'll use the same partition manager then? [13:45] does gnome not work well with ubuntu+unity 14.04 lts? [13:45] anyone on my auth issue? [13:45] neurosnap: just install the gnome version of ubuntu, it should work fine [13:45] trijntje: that seems rather counter-intuitive to a linux based system [13:46] see ya, gonna instal Ubuntu :D [13:46] but is what people keep suggesting to me === WLM|eten is now known as WLM [13:46] install* [13:47] neurosnap: I don't understand what you are saying, install the gnome version of ubuntu if you want to use gnome, what else do you want? [13:47] so basically i gotta wait? omg! oh well, I heard it's rubbish anyway :p [13:47] trijntje: i want to try multiple desktop environments, i dont want to reinstall a linux distro every time i wanna try a new DE [13:48] neurosnap: you can install them side by side if you want, or try them out in virtualbox [13:48] neurosnap: do you want to use like Ubuntu, Xubuntu and Edubuntu? [13:48] Or other unofficial distros [13:49] WLM: i just want to try multiple DEs without reconfiguring my entire setup [13:49] Okay [13:49] That's possible. [13:49] I'm doing it [13:49] smartin__: when you say you 'setup a root user' you mean you just created a password for root, correct? [13:49] WLM: the reason why im asking is because i just tried to install gnome and it didn't go so well [13:49] I'm currently using Xubuntu because Unity is broken, but I still have Ubuntu for when it may work agan [13:50] neurosnap: which package did you install? [13:50] You can just do it from the software center. Everything worked for me [13:50] yup and I ensured he was enabled as well, I have never seen anything like this and I have been using ubuntu for years. [13:50] and what version of ubuntu are you using? [13:50] I installed the xubuntu-desktop package on my 14.04 and now I can run both Ubuntu and Xubuntu [13:50] So Unity and Xfce [13:50] trijntje: gnome-shell ubuntu-gnome-desktop [13:50] What happened when installing that? [13:51] WLM: it worked but all the windows would create a "dragging" effect that stuck to the screen [13:51] the only advice i got was to reinstall gnome [13:51] smartin__: well, it's a shame to see the primary intention of ubuntu's setup be broken... but given you've already checked sshd's configuration for permitting root login and naturally you know the password and have tried combinations in case it's being picky about a given one - i've no extra ideas to add [13:51] in gnome? That sounds like you dont have the proper drivers for your graphics card [13:52] Is there a webpage explaining the meaning of each version/package in ubuntu? For example: lucid, precise, raring, saucy, trusty, utopic and each prefixes -updates, -backports [13:52] trijntje: it's possible, im running vmware [13:52] daftykins: thanks it is really wierd I have never seen a password work via terminal and not work via ssh. [13:52] hi. How to consult doc-base documentation? If I install git-doc for instance... it writes html files in /usr/share/doc-base but yelp do not see those files... [13:52] wmware fusion ontop of mac osx mavericks === ike is now known as claim === claim is now known as claimempty [13:53] wois [13:54] smartin__: and all the logs have to say is the password is wrong? :S === Progster2 is now known as Progster [13:54] !info lua [13:54] Package lua does not exist in trusty [13:54] daftykins: the auth.log says the password is correct when I do a “su -“, when I ssh in it says the authentication faiilure for my user [13:55] !find liblua [13:55] Found: liblua5.1-0, liblua5.1-0-dbg, liblua5.1-0-dev, liblua5.2-0, liblua5.2-0-dbg, liblua5.2-dev, liblua5.2-rrd-dev, liblua5.2-rrd0, libcsnd-dev, liblua5.1-bitop-dev (and 35 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=liblua&searchon=names&suite=trusty§ion=all [13:55] smartin__: ridiculous... but try ssh localhost :) [13:55] just learned about this irc is this a good place to get help fixing technical issues [13:55] ike: only if they relate to ubuntu, but yes [13:55] daftykins: same issue with ssh localhost [13:55] ike ask your question and wait [13:56] ike: If you have an Ubuntu question... yes. [13:56] best community!!! [13:56] i have an issue with pipelight (the software for for watching netflix in a native browser could i et help with that [13:56] mmm yelp seems to have nothing to do with doc-base.. Question: how to read doc-base doc in ubuntu [13:57] what's doc-base? [13:57] daftykins: http://apaste.info/fKu the log for the working su - and the failing ssh at localhost [13:57] apt-cache show doc-base [13:57] is there any way to disable google custom search on browsers in ubuntu? [13:57] it is a standard for doc in html [13:57] (Debian) [13:58] there are some clients [13:58] smartin__: i see it's using IPv6 [13:58] daftykins: would that cause this issue? [13:58] smartin__: not a clue, but something that sticks out to me is all [13:58] smartin__, have you changed PermitRootLogin and removed root from DenyUsers in sshd_config? [13:58] yelp (should) is (?) one [13:58] smartin__: yeah pastebin sshd_config i bet there's a value in there somewhere [13:59] maybe, I am not shure [13:59] maybe, I am not sure [13:59] is there any way to disable google custom search on browsers in ubuntu? can someone please give me any fix for it? [14:00] daftykins: no denyuser entrie at all permitroot is yes - http://apaste.info/9pv [14:01] saleem: click on the little arrow next to the google icon to change it to something else [14:02] trijntje, i tried these fixes already but dont work https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/959463 [14:03] smartin__, have you restarted sshd since the change in sshd_config? [14:03] yup [14:03] someone now the service of ubuntu that can shared the folder that devide by group and user? [14:03] please recommend me. [14:03] trndr: yup [14:03] trndr: even confirmed a new timestamp on the service with ps [14:04] That's service is SAMBA or Not? [14:04] smartin__, in that case it might be easier to beat common sense into your boss ;) [14:04] trijntje, your tip seems to be working thanks for it,hope it doesnt go back/revert to custome search later [14:04] trndr: I wish, but this issue still seems like a major flaw somewhere. Why on earth would the password work for terminal and not ssh? [14:04] classicthais: what language do you speak? it might be better for you to find a local channel [14:05] does it have thai channel? [14:05] !thai [14:05] that talk about ubuntu. [14:05] smartin__, security, there is no reason to allow root login, so making it as hard as possible to enable makes sense [14:06] I live in Thailand. [14:06] !th [14:06] Please type /join #ubuntu-th for Ubuntu in Thailand. [14:06] trndr: I have done everything to enable it and it still does not work. It is saying the password is bad in the auth.log even thought it is correct. That does not make sense [14:06] classicthais: ^ there you go [14:07] trndr: maybe a different error is needed if this is trully a case of root being disabled somewhere else as the error point to a bad password [14:07] Sup [14:08] trndr: WOW, I have had a bash loop in the background for testing to see if the root user can login, it just did magically even though I did not change anything since it’s failed attempt….wierd! [14:08] I don't know if this is the best place to ask. I recently bought a new graphics card for a fairly old computer (maybe 7 years old) with Ubuntu. Now the computer randomly freezes. I also get error messages while Ubuntu is loading, maybe something in the configuration may be the source of the problem? [14:08] sabbut: Which error messages?

[14:47] i am just asking to increase my knowkedge [14:48] fork() create a process and movl $2,%ebx movl $1,%eax int $0x80 aslo can do it ...but === medberry is now known as Guest71256 [14:49] deepanshu: Admirable, grub is a deep peocess. May I suggest that you start with this -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 . [14:49] *process [14:50] How do I do remote support to Ubuntu user? [14:51] There is a girl with a broken package I woudl like to help, by connecting to her desktop [14:51] nikolam: Just use ssh. [14:51] nikolam :using ssh [14:51] nikolam: Using ssh, you and her can use "screen" so you can even show her what you are doing. [14:51] bekks, dee-vee you all know that is impossible for home users with public dynamic IPS , [14:52] where ports are not open [14:52] nikolam: _And you know thats nonsense, since you can create port forwardings. [14:52] bekks, no you can not, because she is girl and dosn't know sh* about configuring her router. [14:53] besides, provider also mostly block incoming ports... [14:53] nikolam, you could try teamviewer [14:53] nikolam: Oh, I can. She cant. [14:53] yup, that was the question [14:53] hello [14:53] trndr, don't we have ANY remote support solution that works out-of-box that works o n Ubuntu? [14:54] doesnt vnc have a trial version thats easy to install? [14:54] blustarwolf: vnc is opensource. No trial version whatsoever. [14:54] blustarwolf: And it is slow and insecure. [14:54] nikolam, vino comes installed, I think [14:54] but youd have to forward a port [14:54] blustarwolf, vnc does not need trial, it just works there are packages, but not without open ports for ssh... [14:55] vino, hmm compdoc_ [14:55] nikolam: Which is wrong again. vnc itself uses different ports than ssh. === fernando is now known as Guest92088 [14:55] no, without forwarding port [14:55] bekks, yes, noone normal would use VNC without ssh tunnel, wouldn't you? [14:55] hi! we I activate the nvidia card of my laptop in prime the desktop freezes after a while. Can somebody help me?? [14:55] nikolam: vnc uses different ports than ssh. you can tunnel vnc through ssh, which doesnt change the fact that vnc isnt using port 22. [14:56] bekks, yes Know that. and I know VNC is unencrypted by default [14:56] bekks I have done the steps that you said me installing the nvidia devices, and stills freezes after a while [14:57] bekks, that also does not change we need something like TeamViewer for one-person support, installed by default [14:57] Windoze have those "request for assistance" i think [14:58] nikolam: I dont need that at all. [14:58] Has the vncviewer/vino unsupported security type ever get resolved? [14:59] bekks, but people that need support and are using ubuntu, need remote support [14:59] anyone have an idea why ubuntu is lagging with like xchat and firefox open? [15:00] nikolam: and in most cases they can use vino or ssh. [15:00] Armadillos, maybe doing update in the background, that is known to kill performance temporarely. use top to see what is acive [15:01] i have a question, is it possible to virtualize one server with different operating systems using (KVM virtualization) and then connect all of them with VNC like 10 monitors, 10 keyboards, 10 mouses so that anyone can access it's virtual machine without a computer? === graingert_ is now known as Guest41564 [15:01] bekks, in most cases, user is behind routers and firewalls, so no ssh [15:02] hi, do .deb files register themselves in the sources file? [15:02] nikolam: which is wrong at least in most of all european countries [15:02] catz`, yes. One might also use Virtualbox, because it has integrated RDP protocol for VMs [15:02] Hello. I have some custom keyboard layout rules in /etc/default/keyboard, but Ubuntu/Unity isn't taking them into account. How do I fix that? [15:03] bekks, witch is what you can not expect from random user and is mostly right in most european countries I know of. [15:03] nikolam: then you dont know much countries over here. [15:04] nikolam: and still, personally I dont need any software like that preinstalled. In case of need, just use teamviewer et al. [15:04] bekks, and you don't know much what home users use [15:04] nikolam, +1 [15:04] bekks, I think it would be of much help to any new Ubuntu user seeking help remotely [15:04] nikolam: whatever. you have no clue about my knowledge. move on. [15:05] someone might tell him he just got plonked. [15:05] bekks, I am not here to argue and to argue your personal needs, moove on [15:05] * Guest42387 with a masters degree it might be a little bit easier to open a port, yeah. [15:06] bekks, I don't understand [15:06] Guest42387: master degrees have nothing to do with reading the manual of your router. [15:06] bekks, you can not expect from ubuntu user to even have access to outer he uses... [15:07] what if he/she uses 3G internet? [15:08] bekks, and the little girl is waiting for a practical solution in the meanwhile (we know about your knowledge, but that isn't helping the normal user, if you don't share ...) [15:08] instead of UbuntuOne, Ubuntu should have some kind of remote desktop facility to help new users [15:08] Can anyone recommend a terminal mv tool that that displays transfer speeds, possibly with progress bars? [15:08] Guest42387: so ask that girl where the manual is - or help her, which I'm not going to do. [15:08] Excepting rsync, I guess [15:09] Yes, problem arised when she updated from mirror , that was pre-selected during install [15:09] and that is obviously not updated and she now have brokena package [15:09] bekks, as usual [15:09] bekks, ok, leave it to me ok [15:09] Guest42387: so be her hero then. and dont hilight me anymore. === moarrr is now known as moarrr_bitcoins [15:11] if im running spamassassin as debian-spamd like so http://pastie.org/pastes/9233203/text?key=mgz1vqlao7nfmwrnssuig, should its update files be owned by debian-spamd or root? [15:11] Also, when i run commands like a lint check, should i be doing something like so? su debian-spamd -c 'spamassassin -D --lint' 2> /tmp/lint [15:11] the reason why i ask is that i dont think the user debian-spamd has access to the sa-update files that are being created [15:11] since they are owned by root === max is now known as Guest96436 [15:16] ubuntu sucks on vmware /facepalm [15:16] it's the slowest os ever, on vmware [15:16] lol, not really [15:16] catz`: then your vm config is wrong. [15:16] yep [15:17] catz`: I'm running it right now and it's as fast as native, you may have something wrong. [15:17] catz`: try LXDE or XFCE as the session, rather than Gnome + Compiz [15:17] i have vmware 2012, running ubuntu desktop, with 3gb ram and 2 cpus at 3ghz [15:17] i have also installed vmware tools [15:17] that's hardware list - not config [15:17] catz`: there is no "vmware 2012" at all. [15:18] sorry, vmware 10 [15:18] catz`: What about the hardware VMware Player/Workstation is on? That can certainly slow down any vm (Ubuntu or not) [15:18] catz`: try the lighter sessions, it will help speed things up [15:18] catz`: how many cores and how much ram does your host have? and why are you using compiz inside a vm which is known to be laggy? [15:18] and it's the slowest thing on earth, when i boot it takes me 10 seconds to open the terminal [15:18] it's vmware workstation 10 [15:19] it's most likley the visual pass through on the video card [15:19] bekks, 8gb ram, 4x3ghz, ssd [15:19] (without doing any checking) [15:19] videocard gtx 790 [15:19] catz`: yeah, but the virtual video card is not [15:20] so what should i use? [15:21] catz`: the video card is virtualized, so you will need to tweak video settings for 3D accelleration, or easier, use a non-compoziting session [15:21] I'd suggest working through the problem, I was making a huge assumption based on common basic errors/regular lack of understanding [15:23] I am facing this issue Ign http://us.archive.ubuntu.com precise-updates Release E: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com precise-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 2 === moarrr_bitcoins is now known as moarrr_darkcoins [15:23] please suggest [15:23] * catz` suggests a suggestion [15:23] * ikonia requests catz` focus's on his own problems rather than silly comments to others [15:24] * catz` is sorry === rikut_ is now known as rikut [15:24] Hi, I'm have a problem where X will randomly freeze.

[15:25] and I can R&W to the Sunny share, but when I try to access the Public share, I get the error "Windows cannot access \\servername\Public You do not have permission to access \\servername\Public."

[15:25] this is help channel? [15:25] katiejeank: for Ubuntu, yes [15:25] ActionParsnip: Nope [15:25] sunnymolini: why are you using samba4 and not samba?

[15:29] ActionParsnip: Still the error [15:29] bishopstix: because twitter gave it's back to third party apps long ago [15:29] decci: try switching from the Indian server to the main server [15:29] the indian server has IPv6 issues [15:29] they are known [15:29] hey watssap guyz. === kremlin is now known as Guest59054 [15:29] xangua: so better use twitter with browser you mean? [15:30] anyone have any tips to stop ubuntu 14.04 lagging? [15:30] ActionParsnip: The package name I installed was Samba, 4 is just the current version. [15:30] bishopstix: you could use tweetdeck or any of the other web clients [15:30] Armag3dd0n1: install xfce4, log off, log in to the XFCE session, profit [15:30] Hey guyz I need an invite to join EFnet server.. [15:30] what is that? [15:30] sunnymolini: why did you not install the 'samba' package? Why did you install 'samba4'? [15:30] Guest59054: not here you don't [15:31] Armag3dd0n1: its another desktop instead of Gnome [15:31] under internet connections my interace are greyed out for some reason [15:31] that's why it's lagging? [15:31] ActionParsnip: I installed with the command sudo apt-get install samba [15:31] Armag3dd0n1: Compiz is teh default window manager and may be causing slowness [15:31] ikonia: how do you suppose where...I just need some assisstance.. [15:31] ActionParsnip: How to switch to Main server [15:32] sunnymolini: then you are using samba, not samba4. Or do you now have both installed? [15:32] how do I change it? I like the look of ubuntu ?(: [15:32] decci: use software centre [15:32] Guest59054: 1.) efnet server is not an invite server 2.) this channel supports ubuntu not "invites to different IRC networks" [15:32] ActionParsnip: I have just commandline [15:32] ActionParsnip: No GUI..since I installed server package [15:32] xangua: tweetdeck is a chrome app but no option for firefox?

[15:32] ActionParsnip: Any idea how to shift to main server through commanlin [15:32] ActionParsnip: Just samba I guess. I've been primarily a Windows user, so I'm used to providing version info with problem reports. [15:33] wait, how do I install unity 2d? [15:33] ActionParsnip: What shall I replace in with? [15:33] ikonia: I was just hoping someone is in here connected to the same server.. [15:33] sunnymolini: then why did you not just right click a folder and click 'share', just like you do in Windows? [15:33] Guest59054: I'm connected to it, but I don't see how that changes anything based on the information I've just given you [15:33] ikonia: so that one can be of assisstance..

That's from a while ago. [15:59] melodie isn't there a binary package for it ? [15:59] daftykins: I spent a lot of time in the samba documentation looking through parameters. [15:59] apt-get build-deps would probably help [15:59] just blindly typing that isn't wise [16:00] I have the gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi installed. how would i tell distcc to use this compiler? I know how to specify a path but not sure where the path of the compiler would be [16:00] ActionParsnip: when I wrote that, I had just come off a project where I was trying to jerryrig Samba for access from any device on the Internet and ended up with sftp. [16:01] I've since come to see the throughput light as Daftykins points out. [16:01] ikonia not for Trusty and it is discontinued since march 10th :-( [16:01] and I only need it now for Lan access.

[16:14] melodie personally, I believe depending on a dead project is unwise and it's better to find a solution that can go forward, but that's just my personal view [16:14] JimmyNeutron have you tried the safe mode boot and see what you can do from there?

[16:15] melodie looking at the reasons it died "changes in the OS", I'd guess "it's dead for a solid reason", but again, from my small research and personal opinion only [16:15] Armag3dd0n1 for what reason do you need an outdated version? [16:15] no but 14.04 is lagging too much [16:16] Armag3dd0n1: 12.04.4 is 12.04 with all updates included. [16:16] ikonia he needed to regain the time used for his personal life [16:16] so it has 2d too? 12.04.4? [16:17] Armag3dd0n1: and as soon as you (i think) dist-upgrade, it will try to go to .4 anyway, afaik [16:17] and he didn't care about the efforts done by all the people who reported bugs in his former repos at code google he just removed it without warning. His program was about to become the best of it's kind though [16:17] Armag3dd0n1: Sorry but there isn't 12.04 [16:17] SchrodingersScat: pretty much. [16:17] only 12.04.4 [16:17] which release should i get for 64bit and 32bit without lagging? [16:17] Armag3dd0n1 yes there have been [16:18] How do I enable scroll-through-tabs using mouse scroll wheel? [16:18] Mike__ yes, there have been several in between [16:18] Armag3dd0n1 several 12.04.xy [16:18] i confused [16:18] Armag3dd0n1: whichever matches your processor. === medberry is now known as Guest71557 [16:19] I have an old machine with 3gb ram and 2gb ram, I installed 14.04 but it's lagging like mad. [16:19] Armag3dd0n1: I don't know what melodie is saying either. [16:19] Armag3dd0n1 what machine do you have (proc/ram/graphics) and what programs do you use? does it lag all the time? [16:19] Pici : 12.04.1 then newer then newer then 12.04.4 [16:20] dual core, 3gb ram, 160gb hdd on an old pc, 14.04 on that. 2gb ram, 60gb hdd and single core with 14.04 on that [16:20] melodie: What? [16:20] 1 is a desktop and the other is a notebook [16:20] Armag3dd0n1: Try Crunchbang: http://crunchbang.org/ . It's very fast [16:20] Pici never mind [16:20] I like ubuntu though lol [16:20] i love it infact [16:20] so do I [16:21] 12.04 has 2d unity [16:21] Mike__: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.1/ ; 12.04.1 is down at the bottom of the list. [16:21] * Pici gives up [16:22] Bashing-om: You want to send this to Armag3dd0n1, right? [16:22] Mike__: Yeah, I got finger happy . [16:23] Armag3dd0n1: ^^ : http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.1/ . [16:23] :-) [16:23] thank you, downloading now! you think it will lag as much as 14.04? [16:24] Armag3dd0n1: I highly suggest using a 12.04.4 install over 12.04.1. You will save time downloading, and you will more up-to-date security fixes out of the box. [16:24] Has anyone noticed an attempt to pxe boot on shutdown for Trusty after the latest kernel update to 3.13.0-27? [16:24] Armag3dd0n1, We can't just answer that empirically, think about it. === michael__ is now known as Guest76554 [16:25] will 12.04.4 have 2d unity? [16:25] Armag3dd0n1: If 12.04 has it. Yes. [16:25] Armag3dd0n1: Well, from what I gather, 14.04 is "generaly" smoother and faster then 12.04 was . However, a lot depends on the graphics situation. [16:25] i haz a crap gpu it says something about an addition driver or something [16:25] idk [16:25] im new to ubuntu [16:25] melodie, Yeah...rebooting back into the old kernel and it works. [16:26] I need to read up on what the new kernel has and did [16:26] JimmyNeutron very good! what about a bug report against the new kernel? === test is now known as Guest87767 [16:27] Armag3dd0n1: IF, and I say IF you are running a legacy ATI graphics card .. release 12.04.1 has support (proprietary) graphics drivers .

[16:31] Please describe the exact issue you are having. [16:31] the)drow is the bios inaccessible? [16:31] the_drow, W8 from the factory originally? [16:31] Well the computer is now bricked. I can't boot ubuntu [16:31] wilee-nilee: Yup [16:31] the_drow: "bricked" in terms of a computer means it doesnt even get to the BIOS anymore, besides not booting. [16:31] also again, no one has seen issues with Trusty on the latest kernel (3.13.0-27-generic) with an attempt to pxe boot over ipv4/6 on shutdown? [16:32] the_drow, You aware of UEFI, and the persession boot menu? [16:32] the_drow: So insert a live cd and repair your grub installation. [16:32] forrest: The BIOS is accessible. GRUB isn't [16:32] the_drow: So it isnt bricked at all, it just doesnt boot. [16:32] then the box isn't bricked, do what bekks suggested and fix grub [16:32] bekks: dropping to the grub shell now [16:32] !grub2 | the_drow [16:32] the_drow: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[16:34] user123321: which programming language? this question is actually very subjective [16:34] C++ [16:34] And, PHP? [16:34] bakflash: the speed is determined by the source and target medium, not by the application you are using. [16:35] !best | user123321 [16:35] user123321: eclipse, kdevelop for cpp. I like jetbrains tools for PHP (I think its called phpstorm) [16:35] "best" relies on your personal opinion, not on facts. [16:35] I see. [16:35] How is netbeans? [16:35] user123321: Take a look yourself. [16:36] Cool. :) [16:36] user123321, if you speak no Chinese and you do speak good French, what is the 'best' foreign language?

[17:05] hi [17:06] pretty please tell me how to install an (x)ubuntu on a laptop without optical drive from usb stick. i did the following: [17:06] bakflash, G45 I think, here's glxinfo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7545286/ [17:06] rigo, try to put all in one post [17:06] what's a good IDE for general web programming (html, css, js, php, whatever), preferably not KDE reliant [17:06] !ide [17:06] Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, pida, monodevelop, geany - Others: eclipse, netbeans, qtcreator [17:06] Hey, people's thoughts on the truecrypt?

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [17:07] ARM9: phpstorm / webstorm [17:07] cipherboy, Yeah #truecrypt their channel. [17:07] anjuta rings a bell [17:07] Ahh apologies, wrong channel! [17:07] bakflash I don't think webstorm is within my budget, is phpstorm some sort of slim version of webstorm? [17:07] wilee-nilee: it is hard. cause i tried loads of things. however: installed from usb stick after reboot the system is there but not booting. there is /dev/sda1 sda2 and sda3 on sda1 is only EFI directory but i dont have efi bios i guess this is the problem. [17:08] ARM9: nah, webstorm is mostly JS as far as I know. But phpstorm can handle JS too. Isn't there a community edition of webstorm? When not I'm sorry [17:08] don't be, it's good to get suggestions [17:08] !bootinfo| rigo run and pastebin the script [17:08] rigo run and pastebin the script: Boot info script is a useful script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). [17:09] I'll dig for a community edition [17:09] in the matter of fact i had a working version but i reinstalled w8.1 but i tought i go back to ubuntu. no matter if gpt or mbr if i delete all the partitions or not. every time the same result. [17:09] im on it brb [17:09] ARM9: oh wow, there is no community edition of both IDE's.. Well there was one sometime ago. I use the premium edition for a long time now. I love jetbrains tools ;) [17:10] well, bakflash webstorm has a few free options, but I think you have to apply [17:10] good thing I'm planning on working on an open source project :D [17:10] http://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/buy/buy.jsp#openSource hm, a bit stricter than I had anticipated [17:11] bakflash, G45 doesn't support opengl?

[17:13] lucido: no need for bad language please [17:13] could be just a lwjgl issue [17:13] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7545318 [17:13] ikonia, sorry I ment to say sheat [17:13] lucido: please don't try to be clever, it's just a reasonable request to not use bad langauge. [17:14] i already altered some stuff. but i can reinstall the system once again if neccesary... [17:16] I'd like to bind the 'launch terminal' command to my keyboard's "Super_L" key (the Windows key). I had this on my old laptop, but when I try to bind it in the keyboard settings it just goes back to 'Disabled'. How can I do this? === tedg is now known as ted === medberry is now known as Guest45057 [17:16] rigo: I am not the smartest kid on the block, but, GPT patitioning = efi booting, and a EFI partition is required. [17:18] lucido: what version of opengl does that GPU support? [17:18] my laptop suspends every few minutes despite settings it to 'never'. i tried 'xset s off' but it's not working. any tips? [17:18] i am also not a linux god. but i tought if i erase everything and start allover from the beginning it should work. it is not. so is it a good starting point if i totally wipe out the hdd with dd? [17:19] rigo: what's actually your issue ? [17:19] is the mbr partition table ok or should i use gpt instead? === ted is now known as tedg [17:19] i cant install the system or to be more specific i cna install the sys but it is not booting up. [17:19] tgm4883, not sure, glxinfo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7545286/ [17:19] rigo, You have a gpt partition table but you are not installed with gpt, a bit hackneyed altogether. [17:19] tgm4883, 1.4? [17:20] aaand how to install with gpt? [17:20] rigo: Chance are that all that is wrong is the boot code is not properly installed to that efi partition. I have no experience with EFI, but I can probably hunt up the tutorial to install in EFI, [17:20] lucido: give me a minute to look it up [17:20] rigo, Use nicks every time you answer someone here. NOt sure never done it, I would use a msdos table myself and call it a day, if this is not a uefi computer. [17:21] wilee-nilee: it is not an uefi it has the old bios. is it ok if i create the msdos partiton with gparted? [17:22] what's a good place to put programs that require a lot of space that I want to symlink to /usr/bin [17:22] rigo, Yes this will wipe the drive however. [17:22] ARM9: you shouldn't need to symlink [17:22] and by a lot of space I mean tons of config files and other cruft [17:22] ARM9: the ubuntu packages will put them in their hardcoded package places [17:22] ARM9: just allocate space correctly [17:23] ikonia I do because I need to keep it in a sub directory lest I want to litter the place with config files [17:23] ikonia installing eclipse manually [17:23] since the version in repo is like 2 years old [17:23] ARM9: if you have a manual installer - you can put it whereever you want. [17:23] rigo, On occasion though gpt leaves remnants that need to be cleaned out so be aware if the in the install the HD does not show, if you go this route. [17:23] /usr/bin with symlink it is then [17:24] ARM9: /usr/bin is supposed to be just for binaries, however if you want it there, you can put it there [17:24] wilee-nilee: i guess i already tried to do that. nevermind i do it again. i have time :) well. that can be the point. can you tell me how to clean out the remains of the gpt? [17:25] rigo, http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/wipegpt.html is a good way. [17:25] ikonia right, so that's why I was asking for a good place to put it, how does /home/foo/bin sound [17:25] ARM9: thats your home directory, you can put it anywhere you want [17:25] ARM9: it's just a disk, the file systems are yours to use as you see fit [17:25] wilee-nilee: looks fine. i give a try and come back in 30mins [17:25] ARM9: not heard 'cruft' for a while :) [17:26] rigo, Cool, hope to see you installed and happy. ;) === rwtrecs is now known as Guest42893 [17:26] :) [17:26] ActionParsnip tis a nice word [17:26] ActionParsnip, hows about bloated. ;) [17:27] bloat and cruft, crud and thunder [17:27] lol [17:28] ARM9: When you see the white whale :) [17:29] tgm4883, it supports opengl2.0 [17:30] lucido: thanks for looking, work came up. What version of java are you using? [17:30] lucido: looks like 1.7, have you tried 1.8? [17:31] tgm4883, not likely that that is the problem [17:32] lucido: While I agree with you, Java SE 8 is listed as a system requirement of Minecraft [17:32] tgm4883, hmm, I'll try [17:32] lucido: or try an older version of minecraft [17:32] lucido: the webupd8 ppa was updated today with newer java [17:33] ActionParsnip, thanks [17:33] my wifi is connecting to wifi can i share my internet to my ethernet only desktop via ethernet [17:33] basketball: yes [17:34] like conect one end of ethernet to laptop and the other to windows desktop [17:34] !ics [17:34] If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing [17:34] and send the wireless internet [17:34] ActionParsnip, can you walk me through it [17:34] basketball: what do you think that guide does? === gloydathDE is now known as dury [17:34] it is easier to have someone say it in channel can you please [17:36] basketball: so you wnat me to copy and paste what it says in that link into the channel?

After many fiddling and checking I've found out when I copy from another drive to one of these drives (or copying from one of those drives to another) its pretty fast, the drives seems to be okay.

I dunno but this is weird for me, still not sure if it could be the drive [17:48] it's kind of.. frozen [17:48] sorry guys [17:48] HI [17:48] aww ignored, how do i delete a read only file console? [17:49] wilee-nilee: another one. depends the installation on the installation media? i mean can it be bad, if it is formatted wrong or has bad partition table? [17:49] bakflash, I just do this with local drives, under your circumstances I would not really know the issues. [17:50] wilee-nilee: na wait, this is still local! [17:50] wilee-nilee: I'm just on a server via ssh, that's all. [17:50] rigo, Install media should be good, you can check the sum of the iso and a loaded usb or cd. You can format a usb including it's partitio table. [17:51] wilee-nilee: and this 'weird behavior' is still the same with rsync. can copy from/to one of those drives pretty fast when I use a third drive as source/target [17:51] bakflash, I just use grsync, I have about the same data as backups and two HD, I use grsync. [17:51] kdz: What file are you wanting to delete ? normally a read only file - not in your home directory - is a system file. Not to mess around with.

[17:54] Bashing-om what would the command be ? === runsiter is now known as runciter [17:55] kdz: If all you are going to do is delete that file, then -> sudo chmod 777 <- will do the trick. [17:56] kdz: try: sudo fuser -vki filename [17:56] kdz: obviously change 'filename' for the actual name [17:57] chmod: changing permissions of `rtorrent.lock': Read-only file system [17:57] chmod 777 and fuser didnt work [17:58] anyone know why aticonfig command gives an error after install fglrx? I found aticonfig in a dir under fglrx but...i don't know, so confusing [18:06] kdz: " Read-only file system" means you have a system problem, most likely the system set it's self to 'ro' to protect it's self. Run a file system check and see. [18:08] my laptop is booting into some kind of root maintenance shell. in my home directory there are two files, README.txt and Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop. the README.txt says "THIS DIRECTORY HAS BEEN UNMOUNTED TO PROTECT YOUR DATA.

What is the end goal here? [19:00] :) [19:00] ysh: I don't see how you can resize the root file system while it's in use [19:01] asker345, This is a last ditch approach [19:02] wilee-nilee, i have to manipulate windows that way. so the goal is to reach recovery console. i know that u do not need grub to do it, its causing the problem, so its quite the opposite. [19:03] ikonia: this http://pastebin.com/0KRKmDy6 [19:03] unrecognized mount option "x-gvfs-show" or missing value. Root filesystem check failed. [19:03] anyone know what this means? [19:04] hello. [19:04] asker345, your reasoning is faulty, that is accessible if working and you have not broke something before you see gru, or using a recovery disc. [19:04] grub* [19:04] so, I'm trying to install GNU/Linux on a new laptop I purchased for my uncle.. but get a rather error: http://bildr.no/image/d3NjNGlJ.jpeg [19:04] asker345: windows 7 recovery console?

You need to get it by booting off the windows CD - or yu can install it from inside win7 (before it breaks of course) [19:06] asker345: Your problem is it's not aware of grub [19:06] unrecognized mount option "x-gvfs-show" or missing value. Root filesystem check failed. what is this? [19:06] asker345, Dude I know this stuff, somewhere something has been broken or your not using the correct prompts, or the menu you need is a different prompt, once you see grub you are to late. [19:07] mexi_d3, thats what i mean. i need a way to still access it. its not broken btw. i just need to access it. lets focus on that. [19:07] asker345: Can you boot into windows? [19:07] asker345, yes [19:07] asker345, Where is your winodws recovery or install disc, that is what you need if you cannot get in. [19:08] Hello! =) [19:08] asker345: Then boot into windows and install the recovery console. So now you can access it without needing to boot from CD. [19:08] asker345, Make the recovery disc in windows and use it. === YourUsername is now known as Oisin [19:08] lolok [19:08] wilee-nilee, for some reason, it gets stuck when i put in the cd ater some time. i dont know why.

[19:10] asker345: Win7 USB stick? OK that does work but how did you create it? [19:10] asker345, and where did you get the media to load the stick, what is it exactly? [19:11] mexi_d3, thats years ago. but it was a safe way, as i do things. i also installed from it successfully [19:11] Let me get this right. You used the microsoft USB boot tool to make a bootable windows 7 flash installer? [19:11] asker345, Honestly this is a windows issue, use their channel ##windows this is off topic here. [19:12] Hrm you're right it is kind of off topic but I don't want him to have to reinstall everythign :) [19:12] mexi_d3, I have been trying to help them, I know this stuff, what we want personally is not a factor. [19:12] wilee-nilee, its a grub issue in my eyes, but im on #windows too [19:13] asker345, Your eyes are clouded with assumptions.

But if you want to know to install windows from the command line (yes it can do that), i'm here :-) [19:14] ytw: again - I don't see how you can resize a mounted root file system [19:14] wilee-nilee, well, it would work without grub installed, since i did that dozen times before.. [19:15] asker345, This is a pointless circular argument. Get the right tools and help at ##windows.

[22:38] Sorry can't in recovery. I'm on a tablet ATM [22:38] well [22:39] is ur i7 sandy ivy haswell [22:39] 1 gen 2 gen [22:39] wich one [22:39] ERROR: dependencies ‘session’, ‘RMySQL’ are not available for package ‘concerto’ [22:39] * removing ‘/usr/lib/R/library/concerto’ [22:40] any1 familiar with concerto installation on ubuntu [22:40] kypor__home: "lspce" shows no other than the ATI card ? .. I can not explain then why "nomodeset" will not boot to some kind of graphics display // in the recovery mode, can you then get to the GUI ? [22:40] *lspci [22:40] any1 familiar with concerto installation on ubuntu [22:41] No, lspci | Grip VGA displays ATI card. Ya nomodeset doesn't do anything [22:41] I think its 4th gen Intel i7 [22:43] Sorry maybe 3rd [22:43] 3400 series chipset [22:43] Should I install gentoo? [22:44] guys pls [22:44] halp [22:44] no [22:44] ): [22:44] Does anyone know about why ufw doesn't at least block incoming browser connections? [22:44] Install Windows and free yourself of these plagues. [22:44] lol [22:45] Lol [22:45] Did that too. ATI has never worked [22:45] i cant go back to windows, i started out on whisky and soon moved onto the harder stuff... [22:46] If whisky ran most of the world's programs, you should have stuck with it. [22:47] arfent: Your broswer sends outgoing http requests on port 80, the responses from that server are not to port 80. [22:48] Jordan_U: To what port are those responses? Thing is ufw claims to have blocked all incoming calls, aren't those browser responses the server gives also incoming calls? [22:49] I can see on search there are others with this issue but no fixes. Just using Radon [22:49] E: man-db: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 what does this mean [22:49] Radeeon driver is the fix [22:49] arfent: Randomized. And no, since the connection was initiated by your browser it is considered an outgoing connection. Just because a connection is "outgoing" doesn't mean that data can only be sent one way. [22:50] Jordan_U: I see thanks. [22:51] kypor__home: radeon is the open source driver for ATI cards, the 5 series does have FGLRX support. As to why you can not get a graphics display, I am at a loss to explain presently. [22:52] arfent: You're welcome. [22:52] Thanks yes same [22:53] How would disk space for '/' become full when home, opt, and /var/www are all on a different partition from '/'? [22:53] I'm stumped too [22:54] kypor__home: The i7 Intel board "might" be with integrated graphics, have you looked in bios and see if integrated grahics is supported on your machine ? [22:54] I've been removing packages, but disk space only decreased and now says it's all used. [22:54] Yes and there is nothing there [22:55] No integrated [22:55] I'm running xubuntu 12.04 and have two monitors (one is touch screen, one is not). Touch screen is working OK until I connect the second display. Then the "mouse" moves from left top of one display to right lower corner of the second display, despite the fact I only "click" on one display. I've tried xinit_calibrator, but it draws itself acrosss both displays. How to solve this? [22:56] skinux: Please pastebin the output of "df -h". [22:57] skinux: There are a lot of files outside of /home/, /opt/, and /var/www/. [22:59] kypor__home: Try this boot paramater : "xforcevesa" . [22:59] skinux: You might need apt-get autoclean/apt-get autoremove to actually remove all the files; there's `bleachbit` as well, which cleans temp/old files. [22:59] simple question. I've tried doing an ifdown and up. I've tried rebooting. I've tried dhclient -r. Is there another way to release DHCP info? [23:00] greenman: release? it doesn't take a reboot. what are you after? [23:00] daftykins: I changed my ip address allocation on my router and I want my server to have the new ip address [23:00] try as I might, I can't get it to release it's old lease. [23:01] I tried dhclient -r and then a dhclient, but that gave this: [23:01] greenman: reboot the router. [23:01] greenman: but static addresses are set manually, for real network admin - not static leasing [23:01] RTNETLINK answers: File exists [23:02] your approach is bad [23:02] greenman: I would recommend you used a static address for a server. You might need to hardcode in connection info one day. [23:02] I deleted the fglrx driver and am using radeeon once again [23:02] Sucks [23:02] greenman: However `sudo ifdown eth0` should work [23:02] Ubuntu still won't work for me [23:07] Hello, how do I create a list of IRC channels I'd like to join automatically when I start XChat? [23:08] Joe_knock: this is ubuntu support, not IRC support. feel free to ask in #freenode [23:08] hmmm, okay daftykins [23:09] Joe_knock http://xchat.org/faq/#q22 [23:09] any1 familiar with concerto installation on ubuntu [23:10] Hello. I want to run a command when I press my Windows key (Super_L) but the keyboard preferences seem to INSIST that Super_L is a modifier only.

Just ask [23:13] however she has something im not famiar with on this laptop [23:13] mustafa@mustafa3113:/var/www/concerto/lib/R$ sudo R CMD INSTALL -l /usr/lib/R/library concerto [23:13] ERROR: dependency ‘RMySQL’ is not available for package ‘concerto’ [23:13] * removing ‘/usr/lib/R/library/concerto’ [23:13] mustafa_: paste your error into some text pasting tool and share here [23:13] oh man [23:14] RandyLangston: What might that thing be? [23:14] to unlock her pc she has to put her fingerprint on it [23:14] im wondering if ubuntu would work with something like this [23:14] do you know if it's built into the bios ? [23:14] no idea [23:14] mustafa_: The error is pretty clear: ERROR: dependency ‘RMySQL’ is not available for package ‘concerto’ [23:14] there is a scanner on the laptop [23:14] RandyLang: is that after it boots or before? [23:14] thats all i know [23:15] yikes, a fingerprint laptop. [23:15] good question vilabit... lol [23:15] i dont know yet [23:15] do you know the make/model of the laptop? [23:15] RandyLangston, Try to lay off the enter, consolidate info to single posts. [23:15] no synth i dont [23:15] guess i should get more info and come back lol [23:15] gotcha wilee [23:15] we would probably be able to help more if we knew that info :) [23:15] RandyLangston, Cool, thanks. ;) [23:15] RandyLangston: Is the fingerprint scan necessary to switch the laptop on? [23:16] oh that has been asked. soryr [23:16] sorry [23:16] i am not sure joe knock... i only seen it once , all i know is it is a HP laptop , and that it has that fingerprint scan on it [23:17] Hi [23:17] I am running a ubuntu12.04 server [23:17] piyush1911: Come here: #ubuntu-server. I'll help you there [23:18] and when I try to run 'sudo apt-get update' the machine throws up a lot of 404 errors [23:18] "W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/binary-armhf/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.14 80]" [23:18] piyush1911: ...

[23:20] Joe_knock: but why is the apt looking for arm packages [23:20] piyush1911, If you can a pastebin of a full update helps us help you. [23:20] piyush1911: This isn't the right channel to be asking for ubuntu-server support. I'm telling you this because an ubuntu-server support channel exists [23:21] Joe_knock, Fair point however we help the server people all the time and refer to that channel when needed. [23:21] wilee-nilee, piyush1911: My apologies then. [23:22] his error could also happen on a non server ubuntu [23:22] Joe_knock, Some problems are fairly straight forward, and there are helpers here who are working linux IT. [23:22] http://pastebin.com/ubW2AEz5 [23:23] piyush1911, maybe your server is running on an Arm machine? see lscpu [23:23] sorry joe im a newbe here...what exactly u meant by copy paste tool [23:23] # lscpu [23:23] Architecture: x86_64 [23:23] CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit [23:23] Byte Order: Little Endian [23:23] CPU(s): 4 [23:23] On-line CPU(s) list: 0-3 [23:23] piyush1911 you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted [23:23] mustafa_ http://pastebin.com for instance [23:23] mustafa_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [23:24] mustafa_: I say this because if you start a long paste, some mod in a bad mood might ban/kick you. [23:24] piyush1911, You have added a additional armf repo it looks like are you sure it has support for your release. [23:24] like piyush1911 getting muted... [23:24] http://pastebin.com/PcSGvij3 [23:25] x86_64 would mean it is a 64-bit architecture.

You require rmysql to be installed. [23:31] looks like you have the basic source list only piyush1911 [23:31] somehow the apt is looking for arm packages instead of x86_64 packages [23:32] somehow the apt is looking for armhf packages instead of x86_64 packages [23:32] piyush1911: What is the pastebin for the error output? [23:32] http://pastebin.com/ubW2AEz5 [23:33] piyush1911 can you pastebin: cat /etc/apt/sources.list [23:33] instead of sources.list.d/* [23:34] http://pastebin.com/WYxmwb1p [23:34] synth_:http://pastebin.com/WYxmwb1p [23:34] piyush1911: Ironically, I think nvidia might be the issue here. Did you try to install any NVidia packages? [23:35] haha.. [23:35] there are no nvidia packages on this machine right now [23:36] hmmm [23:36] I came across an error for somebody else who was getting these errors, because he/she installed: cuda toolkit [23:37] Joe_knock: No cuda [23:38] Is firefox updating ubuntu users to 29.0.1? [23:38] arfent: even if it isn't it doesn't matter because the .1 fixes are mostly windows related [23:38] piyush1911 what does cat /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch show? [23:38] piyush1911: This is the closest I came to discovering your error - http://askubuntu.com/questions/347945/problem-when-i-apt-get-update-precise-main-armhf-packages-404-not-found . Proceed with caution. It seems like you may be able to remove armhf [23:39] synth_: k thanks [23:39] ? [23:39] wrong guy haha [23:40] Getting thanks for the wrong thing ehh [23:40] Joe_knock, synth_: WOW that fixed it [23:40] :D [23:41] man cuda messes with some stuff [23:42] piyush1911: I think it was just that those armhf packages were specified when they shouldn't be. I can only wonder why. Also, you're using 12.04.3, try to upgrade to 12.04.4 [23:43] daftykins: few days a week i work at nvidia [23:44] piyush1911: ah, may i ask what doing? :) [23:44] Automotive [23:44] looking after cars 0o [23:45] yep! [23:45] do i have to configure the kernel in any special way to do nbdroot? [23:45] can some suggest me a good php text editor for ubuntu please? the netbeans I install is bugger alot.

[23:49] piyush1911: Have you filed a bug report? [23:49] i have a question about nic support [23:49] Jordan_U: no not yet, but will do. [23:49] Hello I am having trouble updating my ubuntu system [23:50] I need help please [23:50] is the Intel WG-I217V supported in ubuntu? [23:50] MPEREZ: Feel free to ask your question. [23:50] italiani? [23:51] MPEREZ: there are many helpers here please let us know what is your issue [23:51] Ok everytime I try to update i get an error. I have ubuntu 8.04 and I wish to upgrade to the latest version [23:51] !eol | MPEREZ [23:51] MPEREZ: 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 [23:51] MPEREZ: sorry, you're eol [23:51] lucaNapoli #ubuntu-it [23:51] tnk [23:52] 8.04!!!! [23:52] ok so i got an old one and your not allowed to help? [23:53] MPEREZ: I think what daftykins is trying to say is that you should download Ubuntu 12.04 or ubuntu 14.04 [23:53] or pay 5.5m GBP to extend support for another year [23:53] Joe_knock: i think the links spoke for themselves! [23:53] oh well i tried the disk dident work [23:54] MPEREZ: correct, unsupported is unsupported [23:54] MPEREZ: Did you recently install Ubuntu? [23:54] maybe try doing a usb thumbdrive install [23:54] yes the other day [23:54] o_o [23:54] MPEREZ: OK. Why didn't you install Ubuntu 14.04? [23:54] MPEREZ: I'm guessing you're running a 32-bit machine. [23:54] and might have downloaded 64-bit [23:55] my friend gave me a disk for 8.04 [23:55] i feel like i stepped into a time machine [23:55] MPEREZ: You should download and install Ubuntu 14.04 instead. [23:55] is ubuntu simliar to solaris? [23:56] ok ill get to it thanks [23:56] anyone also know solaris? [23:56] Is it just me, or is the Ubuntu site being hammered? [23:56] Pushy: it's an OS... so in that sense it's similar [23:56] Pushy: "similar" is a vague term. Why do you ask? [23:56] cause i use solaris 11, and don't even know how to install xchat [23:57] usually in ubuntu i do, sudo apt-get install xchat [23:57] or from the app store [23:57] ah [23:57] just google "solaris 11 package manager" [23:57] not much help for solaris [23:57] Pushy: This isn't the correct channel to be asking questions about how to use Solaris. [23:57] Pushy: you may want to try #solaris for help with that kind of thing [23:58] solaris channel is like dead [23:58] I don't blame Pushy though. Solaris?? Do people use that at all? [23:58] Pushy: That doesn't make this the right channel. This is still #ubuntu, and we only support Ubuntu here. [23:59] Joe_knock: i do, please don't encourage the seeking of support for other things in here
