| denz_ | ok, 1 sec | 00:00 |
| trism | denz_: you don't have to install it, it comes with chrome | 00:00 |
| denz_ | meant reinstalling, my bad... | 00:00 |
| Seannie | is there a tool like the taskmanager i can see active processes and kill them if i need to? | 00:00 |

| Jordan_U | denz_: Well clearly it's disabled. Now we just need to figure out how to enable it again :) | 00:03 |
| gr33n7007h | denz_, do has trism said and enable flash in chrome://plugins | 00:03 |
| mexi_d3 | is there an appmenu indicator that shows free memory? | 00:05 |
| denz_ | problem solved! thanks folks! | 00:06 |
| denz_ | sorry to have troubled you with something so simple, but you all have my gratitude nonetheles...can't help but wonder what disabled it in the 1st place tho... | 00:07 |
| Seannie | Seannie: why yes, actually there IS something similar to windows task manager - its called system monitor | 00:08 |
| Seannie | Seannie: system monitor is available from the dash menu | 00:09 |

| csrs | Hello, i need some help creating ApacheOpenOffice launcer | 00:36 |
| schone | hello | 00:42 |
| schone | what runlevel does locale get set in the system? | 00:42 |
| schone | i have an upstart script that fails the first time it gets invoked and then when its respawned later it works fine. I believe its due to not having UTF8 as my locale set at the time it is first invoked | 00:43 |
| Jordan_U | !runlevel | schone | 00:43 |
| ubottu | schone: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 00:43 |
| schone | ubottu: i am using an upstart script to run it… im just trying to figure out the best start stanza to use | 00:43 |
| ubottu | schone: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:43 |
| ASSH0LE | yeah | 00:44 |
| Jordan_U | schone: Why does your upstart script depend on locale settings? | 00:44 |
| ASSH0LE | ubottu: will you lick my balls? | 00:44 |
| ubottu | ASSH0LE: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:44 |

| rudjgaard | Hi, can i get some help resuming wired network after sleep/suspend un 14.4 please? | 00:44 |
| schone | Jordan_U: my upstart script does not… but the code that eventually get run inside the JVM fails becuz i assume there is no locale set so the JVM doesn’t have anything and when it runs into some weird characters inside the files its reading it hiccups | 00:45 |
| elhoir-wrk | hello folks, | 00:45 |
| elhoir-wrk | i want to use real-time for audio | 00:45 |
| donofrio | hey all....is powerpc still usable like it is for upstream provider debian? | 00:45 |
| schone | Jordan_U: like i said earlier, this only happens when that upstart script is run on launch… when respawn kicks into action after the program dies and tries to run that java program again, it works just fine | 00:45 |
| elhoir-wrk | i have read thAT I MUST ADD MY USER INTO THE AUDIO GROUP | 00:45 |
| elhoir-wrk | IS IT TRUE? | 00:45 |
| schone | that happens about 5 minutes after the machine has been up and running | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | elhoir-wrk: Please fix your caps lock key. | 00:45 |
| elhoir-wrk | i read time ago that i shouldnt use the "audio" group | 00:46 |
| elhoir-wrk | Jordan_U: i did, sorry | 00:46 |
| schone | so im assuming some environment variable is missing the first time it loads… since my current start stanza looks like this start on runlevel [2345] | 00:46 |
| schone | Jordan_U: this is only a hunch… but i have nothing better | 00:46 |
| donofrio | can I get some powerpc lovein | 00:46 |
| elhoir-wrk | may anyone help? | 00:46 |
| donofrio | room got quite when I asked for powerpc love | 00:48 |
| Jordan_U | donofrio: Try asking your actual question. | 00:49 |
| schone | Jordan_U: am I missing something about those runlevels and the locale? | 00:49 |
| donofrio | ok where do I get a working desktop update that is as good as 12.04 is, cause nothing after that suppports the ati r200 | 00:49 |
| donofrio | it seems | 00:49 |
| donofrio | let alone it looks like powerpc arch is dieing in ubuntu | 00:50 |
| Jordan_U | schone: I don't know about locale specifically but start on runlevel [2345] is very ambiguous as far as defining what needs to be ready for your service to start successfully. | 00:50 |
| Jordan_U | schone: What is this service exactly? | 00:51 |
| schone | its a webservice | 00:51 |
| Jordan_U | schone: Does it depend on Apache running or similar? | 00:51 |
| schone | but thats irrelevant to the story…. the problem is that it reads some file packaged inside the jar that has some funny characters and it produces a java MelformedInputException | 00:52 |
| schone | Jordan_U: no it does not | 00:52 |
| schone | its a standalone java app | 00:52 |
| Jordan_U | schone: Does it require network connectivity? | 00:52 |
| schone | yes | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | schone: Then "start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE!=lo)" would probably be more appropriate, and may as a side effect start your service after locales have been configured (though clearly it would be better to explicitly depend on that rather than depending on what is essentially a race condition between networking and locale setup). | 00:55 |
| schone | where is locale setup? | 00:55 |

| chrissso | can someone help me with my fstab? I cant move files into trash from my home directory | 01:00 |

| donofrio | is powerpc love the same as it was in 12.04? | 01:39 |
| ikonia | donofrio: dead | 01:40 |
| donofrio | why | 01:40 |
| donofrio | hardware still good | 01:40 |
| ikonia | becuse no-one wants it | 01:40 |
| ikonia | no-one wants to maintain it | 01:40 |
| ikonia | it's a dead platform | 01:40 |
| daftykins | actually i think i've seen unsupported ISOs | 01:40 |
| daftykins | hang on let me have a gander | 01:40 |
| ikonia | there is | 01:40 |
| ikonia | it's an auto build process | 01:40 |
| donofrio | daftykins: yah let me know - that would rock... | 01:41 |
| ikonia | with a small group of community members trying to fix the autobuild failures | 01:41 |
| daftykins | donofrio: however as i say, unsupported so you can't ask about issues | 01:41 |
| gr33n7007h | bodom, what are you trying to do? | 01:41 |
| donofrio | daftykins: understandable | 01:41 |

| gr33n7007h | ah | 01:42 |
| gr33n7007h | i see | 01:42 |
| gr33n7007h | bodom, what does it say when you type `service mysql status` | 01:44 |
| gr33n7007h | bodom, mysql -V aswell | 01:45 |
| donofrio | also noticed its server only so I'd have to do apt-get diff from desktop 12.04 install to server 14.04 | 01:45 |
| bodom | gr33n7007h: status: unknown job: mysql | 01:45 |
| donofrio | why is server powerpc here if unsupported? | 01:45 |
| bodom | gr33n7007h: mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.37, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.3 | 01:46 |

| gr33n7007h | bodom, try `sudo initctl reload-configuration` | 01:48 |
| bodom | gr33n7007h: I already tried, no luck :( | 01:49 |
| darklord | gr33n7007h, i switched the proxy setting to localhost and the port number to 9050 and it's redirecting me to an alternative google, which is certainly a great sign. it's also giving me the captchas and slowing my connection so it's connected, but i'm unable to access .onion sites. i know it's nothing that i've done to break the distro because it's a fresh install. | 01:50 |
| gr33n7007h | bodom, did you try `/etc/init.d/mysql start` | 01:51 |
| daftykins | darklord: this is ubuntu support not TOR support | 01:51 |
| gr33n7007h | darklord, are using polipo aswell? | 01:52 |
| daftykins | darklord: refer to the documentation that came with what you installed. | 01:52 |
| gr33n7007h | ooops | 01:52 |
| darklord | my apologies, gentlemen | 01:52 |
| bodom | gr33n7007h: yes, it's a long story: the old init script runs but doesn't work. I have to use upstart because of the "respawn" feature | 01:52 |
| donofrio | so I gotta dpkg --get-selections on this 12.04 powerpc install (that took four hours to patch) and dpkg --get-selections it back once I install server 14.04 (why no 14.10?) | 01:54 |
| gr33n7007h | bodom, you might get better help in #mysql unless you've already been there | 01:54 |

| the_eye_ | hi all. There is any way to backup a running system ? No reboot, no shutdown services. | 02:02 |
| grimeton | the_eye_: tar cvf - / | xz -9 | nc some.server 12345 | 02:03 |
| bodom | daftykins: Yep, pretty sure, at least not in recent years | 02:03 |
| bodom | grimeton: service mysql stop gives me "unknown job" | 02:03 |
| jacob_ | Hey there | 02:03 |
| grimeton | bodom: sounds like mysql isn't running ... | 02:04 |
| daftykins | bodom: 'recent years'? that doesn't make any sense :P | 02:04 |
| bodom | the_eye_: I usually use rsync | 02:04 |
| grimeton | bodom: ps auxw | grep -i mysql | wc -l | 02:04 |
| bodom | daftykins: Honestly, I don't remember if I made any change let's say 4-5 years ago :) Let's just say it survived all the distro upgrades fine | 02:05 |
| daftykins | bodom: eww | 02:05 |
| bodom | grimeton: mysql i up and running :P 4 | 02:05 |
| mexi_d3 | I use rsync as well. The archwiki has an OK guide for doing a bootable backup with rsync. | 02:05 |
| jacob_ | Ok so i am trying to get to my schools thing not sure what it is i will send you the link if need be but I am in need of it working and it goes through a company called starfish solutions and its not working for me... what can i do | 02:06 |
| mexi_d3 | However I would recommend doing separate backups for SQL etc. | 02:06 |
| mexi_d3 | And of course you MUST test your backup | 02:06 |
| grimeton | bodom: hm, then the pid file is wrong? | 02:06 |
| grimeton | bodom: wrong pid inside the pid file so the process is unknown | 02:06 |
| mexi_d3 | If you don't test your backup, it will likely fail and I will laugh :-) | 02:06 |
| bodom | The point is that mysql is started at boot coorectly bot for some reason upstart then "forgets" about it and I can no longer stop/restart it | 02:06 |
| daftykins | jacob_: you're going to want to format a question which can actually be answered, "i tried... i expected... but instead this happened..." | 02:06 |
| mexi_d3 | Testing the backup includes testing the restore. | 02:07 |
| grimeton | bodom: i'd check for the pid file | 02:07 |
| bodom | grimeton: good idea, but /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid has the right pid | 02:07 |
| the_eye_ | grimeton, this will stream backup to some.server port 12345 ? | 02:08 |
| grimeton | bodom: another idea would be to check the upstart scripts where the error message is generated and then see what the script does before the error message line to see what could go wrong | 02:08 |
| grimeton | s/could go/is going/ | 02:08 |
| grimeton | the_eye_: yeah, just an example | 02:09 |
| grimeton | the_eye_: you also want to exclude /proc /sys /run and stuff | 02:09 |

| fridaynext | ni285533: is it you, kev? from derek on sky1? | 02:15 |
| shunya_chakra | daftykins, np, thanks | 02:15 |
| ni285533 | goatse.info | 02:15 |
| gr33n7007h | shunya_chakra, yes in terminal, sudo fdisk -l to check disks | 02:16 |
| shunya_chakra | gr33n7007h, yup I think it showing partition like in window | 02:16 |
| shunya_chakra | sda1, sda2 sda5 | 02:16 |
| daftykins | gr33n7007h: shunya_chakra is after creating a Windows USB flash drive, i told a friend recently to dd a Windows ISO onto one and it failed, so i don't think your approach is going to work | 02:16 |
| gr33n7007h | daftykins, just make sure it's formatted to fat32 done it plenty of times without fail | 02:17 |
| bodom | grimeton: if you mean /etc/init/mysql.conf it is not executable and has only pre and post start scripts inside | 02:18 |
| daftykins | ah, seems nonsensical to format a drive prior to dd'ing an image onto it | 02:18 |
| daftykins | surely the dd creates a filesystem itself | 02:18 |
| daftykins | but i guess that's it :> | 02:18 |
| grimeton | bodom: i'm talking about going through the service command scripts and check where the error message is generated exactly | 02:18 |
| bodom | grimeton: do you know where they are? | 02:19 |
| jacob_ | Hello | 02:19 |
| jacob_ | this is the error i am receiving : The application has encountered an error. We apologize for the inconvenience. If this happens again, please contact your system administrator. | 02:20 |
| grimeton | bodom: no, let me check | 02:21 |
| grimeton | bodom: it's part of the sysvinit-utils which doesn't hold lots of scripts | 02:24 |
| grimeton | bodom: you got an exact error message that you can paste somewhere? | 02:24 |
| bodom | grimeton: it looks like that "service" calls the "stop" command and "stop" communicates with init via d-bus. | 02:24 |
| bodom | grimeton: stop: Unknown job: mysql (I've translated it myself because it seems to also ignore my LC_ALL settings) | 02:25 |
| grimeton | bodom: LANG=C service mysql stop | 02:26 |
| bodom | grimeton: stop: Job sconosciuto: mysql | 02:26 |
| bodom | grimeton: it ignores LANG too | 02:26 |
| grimeton | ah great... | 02:26 |
| grimeton | but you're root? | 02:27 |
| bodom | grimeton: ofc I am | 02:27 |

| donofrio | anyone here done the 12.04 install on powerpc then http://iwtf.net/2010/01/05/list-backup-or-restore-installed-packages-on-debian-and-ubuntu/ merging that into a fresh load of 14.04 server for powerpc? | 02:29 |
| FaizalST | Hallo? | 02:32 |
| bodom | grimeton: Finally | 02:32 |
| bodom | grimeton: so, just to keep things simple, "service" command calls the "stop" command, the "stop" command calls "initctl" and "initctl" finally signals "init" via DBus that you want to stop a daemon | 02:34 |
| hh | ui | 02:35 |
| grimeton | kiss | 02:35 |
| hh | lol | 02:35 |
| bodom | grimeton: "initctl" has a "--system" option that affects how it comunicates to "init". Using it makes things work | 02:35 |

| mr-seif | How To Create a wireless network to share Internet on Ubuntu 14.04 | 02:50 |
| Jeffrey_f | Elouise: once you install some version of *buntu, you can add the desktop of your choice. | 02:50 |
| carlosqueso | Elouise: you can finish installing kubuntu, then install any other desktop flavor afterward | 02:50 |
| shawnbon206 | http://ubuntugnome.org/download/ if you want to install fresh. if not,, there are instructions on this website to add it to a current ubuntu install | 02:50 |

| LonelyDanbo | where's FireFox, that I can try to tell it to open .swf files? I'm trying to search the web for this info and I can't find it. | 02:51 |
| Elouise | Is it normal that I can't connect to other wifi connections? Like when I go to a hotel, it can detect wifi, but the problem is I can't access to the internet. | 02:52 |
| Elouise | That's the reason why I re-installing Ubuntu atm lol | 02:52 |
| LonelyDanbo | {ubuntu "open with" firefox} fails to find this. | 02:53 |
| carlosqueso | Elouise, that's not normal...does it let you connect to the network? | 02:53 |
| Elouise | Yes, it does. | 02:53 |
| Elouise | I was in a hotel yesterday, took me like 2 hours to fix it, then it worked.. When I get home, I tried connecting to my WiFi connection, it stopped working again. | 02:54 |

| Elouise | I know right :( | 02:54 |
| shawnbon206 | ghostmediapro you want knoppix | 02:54 |
| LonelyDanbo | god damnit. that doesn't work. I guess the flash player for ubuntu just can't run .swf files. | 02:55 |
| LonelyDanbo | wait, but it does. when it's in a web page. just not by itself. | 02:55 |
| mr-seif | Can you help me | 02:55 |
| daftykins | not until you ask a question | 02:55 |
| ghostmediapro | shawnbon206: why is that | 02:56 |
| LonelyDanbo | this is so retarded. I want to get rid of my Debian installation but I can only run .swf from Debian. Ubuntu is the only one with an more up to date version of WINE. | 02:56 |
| Cristiansp | I'd like to install the VMWare on Ubuntu but I don't know if it's possible. | 02:56 |
| shawnbon206 | because its designed for that ghostmediapro | 02:56 |
| Bashing-om | ghostmediapro: One may run 32 bit OS on 64 bit hardware - not the other wise, and 'boot' the os of choice. | 02:56 |
| Elouise | What does linux-firmware-nonfree do? | 02:57 |
| ghostmediapro | better question is there a big differnece in linux between 32 & 64 bit performance wise | 02:57 |
| daftykins | ghostmediapro: the relevance of the two tends to be more about how much RAM you have | 02:58 |
| ghostmediapro | my bro wants to do mobile pentesting, he has access to both 32bit and 64bit machines, so he asked me to make a bootable usb for him, and in the process learn abit | 03:00 |
| ghostmediapro | 2 to 4 gb | 03:00 |
| daftykins | ghostmediapro: are you on a windows system or...? | 03:00 |
| carlosqueso | Elouise it's firmware (kind of like drivers) for hardware that's manufacturer releases it without a free license...if you have a wireless card that uses proprietary firmware, it might help | 03:00 |
| daftykins | ghostmediapro: because YUMI allows booting multiple ISOs from a single flash drive. | 03:00 |
| Jeffrey_f | Elouise: nonfree software as in adobe flash. Non-free meaning, not open source | 03:00 |
| Elouise | Ohh okay. | 03:01 |
| ghostmediapro | makeing the usb from windows | 03:01 |
| daftykins | ghostmediapro: perfect, go grab YUMI from pendrivelinux.com | 03:01 |
| donofrio | burning alt powerpc 14.04 cdrom from 12.04 (six hour install/upgrades - found 866+ updates) then I'll reboot and start the install again | 03:02 |
| ghostmediapro | it would be better to use the iso format, than iso to usb in this case | 03:02 |
| daftykins | donofrio: i told you you can't get support for that, so there is no need for you to provide any updates in here as to your progress as you cannot ask for help | 03:03 |
| donofrio | daftykins: do they have an irc channel? | 03:05 |

| sudormrf | daftykins, no need to sigh. | 04:19 |
| daftykins | well given the answer was a google away, yeah... yeah there is | 04:19 |
| daftykins | if you have FLAC, you'll need FLAC and LAME binaries in order to transcode them on the fly so as to be able to play FLAC and hear it over the shoutcast feed | 04:20 |
| daftykins | so you'd tell your player in a remote location to play http://host:9000/stream.mp3 i think it is | 04:20 |
| daftykins | aaaaand the rest is in the docs, probably | 04:20 |
| sudormrf | daftykins, not really. you said this: "i use the software for my logitech squeezebox for that" which indicates you use something OTHER than "squeezebox". it's the "for" that caused the problem. | 04:20 |

| Al3xG0 | i install system whiout swap | 04:40 |
| Al3xG0 | i install system without swap | 04:40 |
| phunyguy | Al3xG0, if you have unpartitioned space available, just create the partition, format it as swap, add it to /etc/fstab as swap, and then swapon /dev/sd* | 04:42 |
| Al3xG0 | no have | 04:42 |
| Al3xG0 | ;z | 04:42 |
| phunyguy | then you need to do it in a livecd/liveusb | 04:42 |
| Al3xG0 | i have new ssd is possible? | 04:42 |
| phunyguy | resize your partition (shrink), and then create swap partition | 04:43 |
| phunyguy | yes a new ssd would work as swap... | 04:43 |
| Al3xG0 | ok | 04:43 |
| dw1 | or a swap file | 04:45 |
| === Willis_ is now known as Willis | ||
| ubuntuser13 | al3xG0: another way to swapon is by gparted partition manager.right click on swap partition and press swapon. | 04:46 |
| phunyguy | dw1, oooh good idea, I completely forgot I did that on my VPS! | 04:46 |
| phunyguy | Al3xG0, here is a good guide on using a swap file instead: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1042946 | 04:47 |
| dw1 | "Swappiness in the file should be set to 10. Skipping this step may cause both poor performance, whereas setting it to 10 will cause swap to act as an emergency buffer, preventing out-of-memory crashes." -- echo 10 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/swappiness; echo vm.swappiness = 10 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf | 04:48 |

How can i change that password ot find out what it was.... i have to shut computer down and start it back up | 04:57 |
| dw1 | keri: do you have disk or home folder encryption enabled? | 04:57 |
| keri | idk | 04:58 |
| keri | i am using ubuntu 10.4 | 04:58 |
| dw1 | well without encryption, you can simply boot into recovery mode as root and change the password for the user | 04:58 |
| dw1 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode | 04:59 |
| dw1 | at prompt do passwd <username> | 04:59 |
| dw1 | but with encryption, you may not be able to access your home folder files without either knowing the old password or the 32 character pass phrase when the encrypted folder was created | 05:00 |
| keri | when i start computer to do anything i enter a password, and when ideal it is a differant password. this is same password i use in comman terminal | 05:00 |

| dohzer | I just extracted a code sourcery install archive (.tar.bz2), but the contents are two .sh files, two .xml files, and a whole bunch more .tar.bz2 archives. Is that some kind of standard software archive? Is there some automated method for extracting the ~40 other archives? | 08:16 |

| herbert1 | the SECOM keys | 08:17 |
| Gizmo_the_Great | herbert1: I'm sure there is a logical answer but how does that relate to the disk not mounting? | 08:17 |

| red45923 | dohzer, maybe it is something you build with apache ANT | 08:18 |
| Gizmo_the_Great | herbert1: so it can't be mounted? | 08:18 |
| red45923 | have a look at the sh file, see what it does | 08:19 |
| herbert1 | run the 144milsim program | 08:19 |
| herbert1 | mounted to run the 144 milsim | 08:19 |
| Gizmo_the_Great | herbert1: the what? Is that in the repositories? | 08:20 |
| red45923 | still got a question, running ubuntu 12.04 - on startup get message system process crash + icon flashing - but click on it and the choices are report it or close, so i cannot see what the problem is, what is the simplest way to find that out please? | 08:21 |
| dohzer | red45923: yeah looks like I need to build it. :( | 08:21 |
| red45923 | dohzer, building software is not such a big deal if you got all the right versions of the required libraries | 08:22 |
| Gizmo_the_Great | OK, other than the riddles from Herbert1, does anyone else have any idea? Need to mount 1Tb Lacie drive formatted with ext3. Works via USB but not via Firewire. | 08:23 |
| red45923 | sometimes the latest software requires the newest libs to build though | 08:23 |
| dohzer | yeah, I'm normally pretty good with it, but I'm a bit lost if it isn't a git repo :S hehe. Will see if there is a good guide on the Code Sourcery page | 08:23 |
| Gizmo_the_Great | if I run : lspci | grep -E -i "(1394|firewire)" | 08:23 |

| bekks | *you should | 08:31 |
| avavtrouble | bekks so, sorry, i ll take care now | 08:31 |
| sm21 | I have windows 7 installed and i've booted up from a usb drive ubuntu 14.04 to install side by side with windows 7 but when I go to make the partitions for ubuntu i dont see the windows 7 partitions just the entire harddrive | 08:32 |
| gry | <bekks> avavtrouble: "on" or "blinking"? | 08:32 |
| gry | a question :) | 08:32 |
| avavtrouble | :bekks :gry , on | 08:32 |
| bekks | "< red45923> avavtrouble, sometimes i think purge can take away more than you intend, can you check what was removed?" | 08:33 |
| bekks | and a second question :) | 08:33 |
| red45923 | sm21, so win7 occupies your whole hard disk and you have no partitions? if so why are you surprised? | 08:34 |
| avavtrouble | bekks, I can but i need a usb bootable OS, i don't have one, i m downloading Ubunut's usb, download is slow | 08:34 |
| sm21 | No it doesnt windows 7 only occupies 50% of the harddrive | 08:34 |
| avavtrouble | bekks , but even if I could what after that? | 08:34 |
| robin1 | Guido1: It can be hard to find a new laptop where Linux works just out of the box. | 08:34 |
| robin1 | Guido1: Laptop makes are using all kinds of hardware in there systems what maybe not be working on Linux. | 08:36 |
| gry | I would come to a shop with a CD in my hands and see how they go about me testing that | 08:36 |
| gry | Live CD, that is | 08:36 |
| red45923 | sm21, well from what i recall there are some options on the install, something like use entire disk is one and custom partition is another, so i think there is an option before you get to that screen where you can choose to do it another way | 08:36 |
| robin1 | Guido1: For example the Wi-Fi adapter can be trickie. | 08:37 |
| sm21 | ok ill have a look | 08:37 |
| avavtrouble | <bekks> anything on it ? | 08:37 |
| wigirc | how to look from what package application came from? For example I want to know what package installed /usr/bin/chromium | 08:37 |
| sm21 | there is an option for 'something else' which is what I am doing | 08:38 |
| robin1 | Guido1: My advice, make a xubuntu live boot CD, go to a real computer shop and ask if you can test e few models. | 08:38 |
| sm21 | then it brings up the list of hard drives and it just shows the entire hard drive and not the windows parititions | 08:38 |
| Guido1 | gry, robin1: i thought about instaling with a live cd, but what is importand by the hardware? I'm just back from an excursion and my pold laptop only works if i put it on the heating, but the laptops others worked everywhere in the barn. I don't want one which stops working after a year, but it should also not be very expensive as I'm a student | 08:39 |
| bekks | avavtrouble: you cold try booting a live cd and investigate the issue further. | 08:39 |
| bekks | Guido1: hardware that is functioning is important. | 08:39 |
| red45923 | sm21, something else is the one but something is wrong there, whenever i have used it | 08:39 |
| avavtrouble | bekks, see, if i see the log file of the apt-get and see what packages were removed, would I be able to reinstall them? and then recover my grub2 then? | 08:39 |
| red45923 | it can see the partitions there and i can do stuff with them | 08:39 |
| sm21 | hmm not sure what do to | 08:40 |
| sm21 | to do* | 08:40 |
| avavtrouble | bekks, i m really in a situation of urgency, i have very less time of internet access for the next month now after today, could you help me likewise if you could, I | 08:40 |
| avavtrouble | bekks, I 'd appreciate it if you could | 08:40 |
| Guido1 | bekks: what kind of battery works long bevore charing and has no memory effect, which processor, how much and which ram, which grafic card to conect a beamer or screan, ... | 08:41 |
| bekks | Guido1: if you want a laptop for rough environments, you need to buy a "ruggedized laptop" | 08:41 |
| red45923 | cant think, anyone have any suggestions for sm21 ? | 08:41 |
| bekks | avavtrouble: you need a live cd. | 08:41 |
| bekks | avavtrouble: and you could try using nomodeset before | 08:41 |
| robin1 | Guido1: Putting your laptop on a heater is not normal behaivour, but moste laptop (and all other electronics) have a temperature range where they should work. Normaly somting from 0 to 40 degrees celcluis. | 08:41 |
| bekks | !nomodeset | avavtrouble | 08:41 |
| ubottu | avavtrouble: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 08:41 |
| robin1 | Guido1: Laptop's dont like temperatures below 0 degrees. The batterij will then fail. | 08:43 |
| nikonmx | Hi | 08:43 |
| red45923 | sm21, well i am not sure why the screen is showing you no partitions if there are partitions there, are you sure there are partitions? | 08:43 |
| bekks | And condensed water will destroy other components. | 08:43 |
| gry | hi, nikonmx | 08:43 |
| nikonmx | Hi gry | 08:43 |
| bekks | Guido1: "ruggedized" means laptops like these, e.g.: http://www.dell.com/learn/us/en/555/rugged | 08:43 |
| gry | how can i help you? | 08:43 |
| Guido1 | robin1: the range worked the first few weeks, but now it has to be about room temperature - 21 degree or what it is. a bit below and the laptop doesn't start. inm the barn it was maybe 18 to 20 degrees and that was too coold :-S | 08:44 |
| avavtrouble | ubottu I'd have to research on that and read, but to be clear even my terminal is not opening from cltr+altr+F1 , ubuntu is not booting | 08:44 |
| ubottu | avavtrouble: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:44 |
| theTroy | After upgrading to 14.04 from 13.10 I no longer get sound in wine - how to go about trying to resolve it? | 08:45 |
| Guido1 | robin1: i didn't used it below 0 degrees and i think i don't even transported it by that temperature. | 08:46 |
| robin1 | Guido1: Sounds like your laptop is defective, may be damaged by condensed water as bekks says. | 08:46 |
| avavtrouble | bekks , to be clear my OS is not booting, nomodest , i ll have to look up for, read about it, but that is the only problem, i have less time | 08:46 |
| Radon_3 | Hi every body, does anyone know a safe and secure dns lookup client which would work on port 53 for ubuntu? | 08:47 |
| bekks | avavtrouble: Read what ubotto told you about nomodeset. | 08:48 |
| bekks | avavtrouble: No need to google that. | 08:48 |
| red45923 | theTroy, have a read of this see if it helps | 08:48 |
| red45923 | http://www.unixmen.com/2012003-howto-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu/ | 08:48 |
| Radon_3 | my ISP has blocked normal dns lookups for me and I am some what irritated and scared | 08:48 |
| ubuntuser13 | radon_3: i think that is netwok tools software. | 08:48 |
| bekks | Radon_3: All DNS clients work on port 53. | 08:48 |
| Radon_3 | ubuntuser13: what do you mean? | 08:48 |
| bekks | Radon_3: And all are "safe" and "secure". | 08:48 |
| Elouise | Hi | 08:48 |
| Elouise | I have a question. Can anyone answer it for me? | 08:49 |
| Guido1 | robin1: on my room it's now working. it's from terra. i have the idea that it just isn't a good laptop. it is from the time that vista came out. i bought it with xp. after installing office 2007 it already went mad and became worthe. with x ubuntu it was better, but than it got worth again. the excursion last week now lets my finaly consider to buy a new one, but i don't want that again | 08:49 |
| theTroy | Radon_3: I get sound in ubuntu, I _only_ do not get the sound for wine applications. in 13.10 I had sound for both the OS _and_ wine apps | 08:49 |
| ubuntuser13 | radon_3: install network-tools from software center. | 08:49 |
| bekks | Elouise: you have to ask it before. | 08:50 |
| cfhowlett | !ask|Elouise | 08:50 |
| ubottu | Elouise: 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 | 08:50 |
| Elouise | So, I just got kubuntu 14.04 today. The username shown in Account details is "user." Is there any way to change this? | 08:50 |
| Elouise | Sooo? | 08:51 |
| bekks | Elouise: thats the username you choose when installing ubuntu. | 08:52 |
| Elouise | Actually I got it fixed. | 08:53 |
| Elouise | Thanks. | 08:53 |
| robin1 | Guido1: Every electonic device can become defective. But if you stay in mainstream brands you should be fine. Brands like HP or Dell have normaly a long life. | 08:55 |
| Guido1 | robin1: okee, than i will look there. i was also thinking that shops often want to make money and so maybe say that things are required which are not required | 08:56 |
| === Ihaveallthehats is now known as UKn0Me | ||

| Elouise | So cool | 08:58 |
| Elouise | lol | 08:58 |
| sm21 | Hi, I came in with a problem before , now I have more information to be able to fix it... | 08:58 |
| Elouise | Ermagud | 08:58 |
| sm21 | to give you background I am trying to install ubuntu dual boot with win7 and the install can't see my windows partitions it just shows the entire hard drive | 08:59 |
| sm21 | so i ran qparted and it gave me this error | 09:00 |
| sm21 | /dev/sda contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table. However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should. Perhaps it was corrupted -- possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition tables. Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an msdos partition table. Is this a GPT partition table? | 09:00 |
| cfhowlett | sm21 your HDD iis gpt? | 09:00 |
| Guido1 | bekks: yes, i read it. it looks good, but one problem: I'm a student and don't have the money :-( | 09:00 |
| sm21 | what is gpt? and how do i fix it? | 09:00 |
| cfhowlett | sm21 right. convert your GPT to MBR and it'll work | 09:00 |
| sm21 | oh ok, how? lol | 09:00 |
| dfcnvt | Pressing [Shift + Print Scr] doesn't seem to work. What cause this? | 09:01 |
| bekks | !uefi | sm21 | 09:01 |
| ubottu | sm21: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 09:01 |

| Radon_3 | so, can you guys probably suggest me with some dns client which would be capable of DNSSEC ? | 09:12 |
| Varun_krishna | Hi guys, recently I had installed that compiz, now my menubar and the side bar is not being displayed. I have also read some posts on SO. If I remove it will my menubar and the side bar will be back ? | 09:13 |
| b0unce | hi to all. I've a problem: when I click on "suspend" button or do "pm-suspend", it displays me a black screen and soon after it goes to the logon screen , like if I clicked "lock". Why is that? How can I suspend? | 09:13 |
| b0unce | P.S.: I have Ubuntu 14.04 3.13.0-27-generic. | 09:14 |
| Radon_3 | b0unce: not a professional but I think that you either have to change the suspend settings of your BIOS or your mother board and bios and also your RAM have to support the suspend features already | 09:14 |
| b0unce | Radon_3: but weeks ago it worked perfectly. | 09:15 |
| === nano is now known as Guest68947 | ||
| Radon_3 | b0unce: so to shoten the stuff: 1- check your BIOS settings 2- See if your system supports the suspend features | 09:15 |
| Guest68947 | #can | 09:16 |
| Radon_3 | b0unce: you mean Ubuntu 14.04 worked fine with the suspend feature and now it doesn't? | 09:16 |
| diode_logic | alt | 09:16 |
| b0unce | Radon_3: yes, may it be a kernel upgrade? | 09:16 |
| Radon_3 | b0unce: told you, I don't know anything about ubuntu, I am just a beginner here, you need some professional look up your problem man, sorry bro :( | 09:17 |
| Radon_3 | I wishI could help more | 09:17 |
| cfhowlett | b0unce easy test. reboot. choose an older kernel. | 09:18 |
| b0unce | cfhowlett: alright . I'm gonna try. | 09:18 |
| Radon_3 | can someone please tell me about a good dnssec implementation for ubuntu 12.04 please? I am dying over here | 09:18 |
| bekks | Radon_3: "dnssec implementation for ubuntu 12.04". thats nonsense. the implementation of dnssec has nothing to do with ubuntu. What is you actual goal? | 09:19 |
| Radon_3 | ok, fare enough, I want my dns lookups in ubuntu not be visible to my isp, and I want a secure dns lookup, that's all | 09:20 |
| bekks | Radon_3: dnssec is nothing that can help you with that. | 09:20 |
| bekks | Radon_3: you need a ssh tunnel to bypass your isp, and use an external dns server. dnssec has nothing to do with that. | 09:21 |
| Radon_3 | cause my ISP is interfering with my DNS choise, it doesn't allow me to use 8.8.8.8 or open dns servers, which is very irritating, it is like they know and control everything | 09:21 |
| bekks | Radon_3: they always do, regardless of the dns server you are using. | 09:21 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: ok, any suggestions for ssh tunneling business? | 09:21 |
| bekks | Radon_3: "ssh" is all you need. | 09:22 |
| bekks | !ssh | Radon_3 | 09:22 |
| ubottu | Radon_3: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 09:22 |

| Radon_3 | bekks: well I know about ssh, prtly-cloudy-ish but I don't know any free ssh providers | 09:23 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: well I know about ssh, partly-cloudy-ish but I don't know any free ssh providers | 09:23 |
| Varun_krishna | How do I fix this ? | 09:23 |
| bekks | Radon_3: thats nothing we can help you with then. you need a location outside your isp to ssh to. | 09:23 |
| bekks | Varun_krishna: which ubuntu release are you using, and what did you do before there was "no sidebar" and "no menu bars" anymore? | 09:24 |
| Romance | Radon_3: as i suggested use a free vpn like softether but configuring it on linux is a lil bit difficult, but if you want some cheapest shell so u can ssh, there are $3.99/yearly vps | 09:26 |
| Varun_krishna | bekks: I am using ubuntu 14.04 LTS. After I had installed that compiz thing the side bar and menu bar disappeared. | 09:32 |
| Varun_krishna | bekks: Do you think simply by removing the compiz will fix the problem ? | 09:32 |
| Radon_3 | Romance: actually I know of a very friendly SSH provider, but I don't want my whole traffic to be encrypted, only my dns lookup. | 09:34 |
| bekks | Varun_krishna: No. | 09:35 |
| Varun_krishna | bekks: No ? | 09:35 |
| bekks | Radon_3: which is fairly nonsense. so you isp will get the entire content, but you will be hiding the dns requests. | 09:35 |
| bekks | Varun_krishna: No. | 09:35 |
| Romance | Radon_3: how did you know your isp interfere the dns lookup, dns leak test? | 09:36 |
| bekks | Varun_krishna: You'd better start to investigate the issue but looking at the logs. | 09:36 |
| Varun_krishna | bekks: how do I look at the log, where can I find it >? | 09:36 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: i absolutely agree with you that it looks nonsense, but that's what I need, cause I am living in Iran, and you kind of are missing the point that things are done differently over here | 09:37 |
| Romance | Radon_3: since you only want to "hide" your dns lookup as is web browsing, just use ssh tunneling set in your favorite web browser | 09:37 |
| Radon_3 | Romance: yeah, a bit of that, but the fact that all the DNS lookups, even from other servers like 8.8.8.8, get translated from a similar local server which is actually the ISP's, even when I use opendns | 09:38 |
| Romance | Radon_3: and so, ssh tunnel | 09:39 |
| Radon_3 | I mean, if DNS look ups where not that big of a deal, why the hell is my ISP BLOCKING all the other DNS servers? Just let me, as a customer, have the freedom of choosing my own DNS servers... but no... | 09:40 |
| Romance | oh dont play with those word "let me as a customer have the freedom" | 09:40 |
| Romance | it is nonsense not only for u | 09:40 |

| sibi | need help in installing ubuntu | 09:52 |
| MonkeyDust | sibi let's hear it | 09:53 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: I understand your point completely, but the problem is VPNs are not working in this country, SSH tunnles will be giving me limited speeds, TOR nodes (some of them) will be logging my data so I son't be able to login to my desired websited safely. | 09:53 |
| bekks | Radon_3: and hiding dns requests but not hiding the entire results and the contents you access is pointless. | 09:54 |
| anthony_ | How do I change apt-get to use a closer mirror? | 09:54 |
| Radon_3 | son't = won't | 09:54 |
| bekks | Radon_3: and tor isnt logging any data. | 09:54 |
| Fritzendugan | Radon_3: if the website you're connecting to use ssl, then it doesn't matter if they log it, no? | 09:54 |
| Romance | how speed is limited with ssh tunnel? i always use ssh tunnel with compression and it amazes me how fast i can surf the web | 09:54 |
| Radon_3 | Fritzendugan: exactly, but not all websites use ssl | 09:55 |
| Fritzendugan | Radon_3: what website where you're entering sensitive information doesn't use ssl? | 09:55 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: some nodes keep logs of the data they transfer and if you don't use ssl over http for the transmission and that node happens to be logging your data, you are screwed. | 09:55 |
| bekks | Radon_3: then why on earth do you want to hide the dns request, but are willing to show the result to your ISP? Thats completely pointless - to use a friendly term. | 09:56 |
| Radon_3 | Fritzendugan: good point, but I can't remember them, but there are many forums out there that don't use ssl for loging in | 09:56 |
| bekks | Radon_3: you should be concerned about using those websites instead. | 09:57 |
| Fritzendugan | unity --reset says it's deprecated. What should I be using? | 09:57 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: OK, you wanna know why, because I am afraid if they mess with my dns lookups, then theywill redirectmy requests to a dummy server which is not the actuall server, and when I try updating my ubuntu, instead of getting the keys from canonical I will be getting the keys from a messed up faulty local server, and I would be screwed | 09:58 |
| bekks | Radon_3: and not hiding the actual traffic will allow them to instantly replace the traffic with faked and faulty packages, e.g. | 09:59 |
| bekks | Radon_3: so your approach is _entirely_ pointless. | 09:59 |
| Radon_3 | and when I say good morning ubuntu 'sudo apt-get update' please, it will be gettng the wrong, messed up faulty data | 09:59 |
| MonkeyDust | Fritzendugan is this useful http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/reset-unity-and-compiz-settings-in-ubuntu-14-04/ | 09:59 |
| bekks | Radon_3: either hide your entire traffic or dont. | 09:59 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: OK, I am sorry for being a totall ass, and I hate to admit, you are right. | 10:00 |
| Radon_3 | they COULD mess with the data too | 10:01 |
| Fritzendugan | MonkeyDust: thanks a ton! Yeah that worked. For some reason when I clicked the icon or pressed super, unity wouldn't do anything anymore. That fixed it thanks | 10:01 |
| Radon_3 | I think I might have to kill myself | 10:01 |
| bekks | Radon_3: so use an ssh tunnel to hide you entire traffic. as you have been told initially. | 10:01 |
| bekks | Radon_3: you have to stop talking nonsense in first instance. | 10:01 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: I am sorry man, and also I am a human and I am allowed to make mistakes I guess. | 10:02 |

| MichaelLong | trijntje, it is sluggish even on a decent USB 3.0 stick. but it is doable. I'm using such setup for diagnosing and other stuff. update can take a while | 10:06 |
| MichaelLong | note that I'm using a "proper" installation not a LiveUSB setup | 10:07 |
| trijntje | MichaelLong: yeah, I'm also gonna install to the usb. I'm thinking of using lubuntu instead of ubuntu, that should speed things up a bit | 10:08 |

| Radon_3 | OK, I give up, I can't get SSH running in ubuntu so that it will encrypt my whole Internet information, how can I do that? | 10:09 |

| MonkeyDust | !ssh | 10:11 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 10:11 |
| Radon_3 | Here is a neat new idea, why doesn't ubuntu provide its update system over SSH? | 10:12 |
| MichaelLong | trijntje, I even gone so far to partition the stick with 3 partitions. the first one (primary) 32GiB is a normal fat32 partition, second is linux and third is swap. windows only detects and uses the first partition so that stick still acts as a normal data exchange storage device | 10:12 |
| Radon_3 | I mean that way everything would be safe and sound | 10:12 |
| trijntje | Radon_3: all updates are cryptographically signed, so nobody can modify the packages without you noticing | 10:12 |
| MonkeyDust | Radon_3 that question would be for #ubuntu-offtopic, i guess | 10:12 |
| Radon_3 | what if the keys are not the keys that they are supposed to be | 10:13 |
| dualbooty | secureboot not secureboot ahh | 10:13 |
| trijntje | MichaelLong: thats a good idea actually, thanks | 10:14 |
| bekks | Radon_3: So where are you located at, actually - which country? | 10:15 |
| trijntje | Radon_3: you get a warning about untrusted packages, telling you not to install unless you know what you are doing | 10:15 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: Iran | 10:15 |
| dualbooty | does ubuntu get installed in fat 32 or ntfs | 10:15 |
| Radon_3 | bekks: why? | 10:16 |
| MonkeyDust | dualbooty ext | 10:16 |

| Radon_3 | benthew: yeah, tell me about it, it's the best | 10:21 |
| benthew | I have it running on VirtualBox | 10:22 |
| Radon_3 | benthew: I think ubuntu comes with almost everything you need, but as go on working with it, you will find your way around and get to know your own taste in things and install what you need. | 10:22 |

| Kurdistan | Hi my nvidia card is blacklisted so I can not by default run Unity 3D under Ubuntu, but for 12.04 LTS I can go around that by UNITY_FORCE_START=1 . It works well for me under 12.04 without any stability issue. Been running 12.04 over 1 year. I will move to 14.04 when the first point release will come. Have no time to install new version now. My question is does UNITY_FORCE_START=1 still work for 14.04? Anybody with experiance? | 11:00 |

| theadmin | Radon_3: As long as the website is official, the worst you can run into is dependency problems | 11:12 |

| theadmin | Radon_3: To be fair it doesn't seem to be too old, the major version is the same (1.4) | 11:15 |
| Radon_3 | lotuspsychje: I am holding my breath till july, and till the endpoint release is out there | 11:16 |
| Radon_3 | well I can see a lot of bugs have been fixed since version 1.4.16, a lot | 11:19 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: well you have 2 options, upgrade to trusty or try the 1.4.22 on your 12.04 | 11:20 |
| Radon_3 | lotuspsychje: I prefer the latest option, but I only don't know how to do it, (OMg this is embrassing)... | 11:21 |

| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: there's s tar.gz to compile yourself on their site: http://unbound.net/download.html | 11:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: but i would go for the easy way and upgrade to stable 14.04 | 11:22 |
| Radon_3 | Pupeno_: I guess after a few secondsmine usually takes some where around 7 to 10 secs, sometimes less. | 11:22 |
| Radon_3 | lotuspsychje: ok, let's do it.... how much traffic would it take for me to upgrade from 12.04 latest upgrade to 14.04 ? | 11:23 |
| Pupeno_ | Radon_3: this is ntpd running in the background, right? | 11:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: well personally i rather do clean installs, but i think about 45min upgrade | 11:24 |
| Radon_3 | Pupeno_: No I guess it is just sending and recieving some data to the time servers to calculate the latency and then give you an accurate result that's all | 11:24 |
| Radon_3 | lotuspsychje: how much bandwidth man? | 11:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: think thats hard to guess, depends on your personal installes packages too i think | 11:25 |
| Radon_3 | lotuspsychje: Well give me some numbers, your best guess please... | 11:26 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: you have broadband internet to upgrade? | 11:26 |
| Radon_3 | yeah, I got one | 11:26 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: you have bandwith limit? | 11:26 |
| MonkeyDust | Radon_3 i upgraded with do-release-upgrade and ik took over 2 hours, broadband | 11:27 |
| MonkeyDust | it* | 11:27 |
| Radon_3 | lotuspsychje: yeah bandwidth limit like you wouldn't believe | 11:27 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: lol, maybe better just download 14.04 iso and install clean | 11:27 |
| Radon_3 | lotuspsychje: damn... then I would have to download all the IDEs and games and stuff all over again, which I don't think I can afford | 11:28 |

| Radon_3 | But I guess, since many new things are available over at 14.04 (the lovely), my current p[ackages wouldn't be of use anyhows and I would have to download them all over again. | 11:30 |
| Radon_3 | maybe much newer versions are availble in 14.04 | 11:31 |
| lotuspsychje | Radon_3: it will use some bandwith afterwards yes | 11:31 |

| donofrio | gotta be some linux that had 3d graphics support for my powerpc's!!! just sayin (really anyone know any that work debian and ubuntu only good at 12.04 after that its toast) | 12:29 |
| antonio__ | oerheks: monkeydust: isn't pdf master free? | 12:29 |
| lotuspsychje | ddr90: does your brightness slide not work by default? | 12:29 |
| antonio__ | its asking for payment with software center | 12:29 |
| ddr90 | no, it can't be changed using function keys | 12:29 |
| Fritzendugan | MonkeyDust: I've been able to change basically everything but the dimming of the windows :/ anywhere else I should look? | 12:30 |
| MonkeyDust | antonio__ yes, that's possible, free as in free speech, but not as in free beer... it can be commercial | 12:30 |
| lotuspsychje | ddr90: you use the Fn button also? | 12:30 |

| Seannie | ok. so i thought i would try scanning my windows partition for viruses from within ubuntu, so i installed clamAV. But i did not like how ClamAV worked - its real time scan engine bogs my machine down causing noticeable delays in buffering on multiple tabl websessions. I tried apt-get remove clamAV and it said it only removed one file. Upon reboot i see ClamAV is one of the processes the Daemon asks to stop before turning off. so what giv | 14:30 |
| Seannie | es? how can i remove ClamAV fully? | 14:30 |

| iceburned | what is the advantage of using cinnamon? | 14:44 |
| IdleOne | there is none. Do you have an Ubuntu support question? | 14:44 |
| shunya_chakra | hi in linux we call installer a binary package? | 14:44 |
| shunya_chakra | or installer? | 14:45 |
| MonkeyDust | iceburned it warms your feet | 14:45 |
| iceburned | MonkeyDust what do you mean? I mean DE cinnamon. | 14:46 |
| MonkeyDust | iceburned simply choose a DE and use the one you like most | 14:46 |
| ez1 | shunya_chakra: you can have binary package, which are mainly a set of compiled libraries, or source package, which you have to compile or "build from source". AFAIK an installer is normally a program that installs a binary package | 14:47 |
| ez1 | (I accept corrections) | 14:47 |
| iceburned | MonkeyDust what's your opinion. which one do you prefer? cinnamon or unity? | 14:47 |
| MonkeyDust | !poll | iceburned | 14:47 |
| IdleOne | iceburned: Please don't ask for opinions on what is best | 14:48 |
| ez1 | shunya_chakra: that is why you get programs for 64 bits, or 32 bits | 14:48 |
| IdleOne | try it and decide for yourself | 14:48 |
| ez1 | they are actually compiled | 14:48 |
| ez1 | but you could also install from source ! | 14:48 |
| ez1 | hope it helps | 14:49 |
| shunya_chakra | I think now it's little bit more clear to me... about binary package and installer ez1 | 14:49 |
| iceburned | could you tell me how to install cinnamon? | 14:49 |
| shunya_chakra | binary package are not exactly installer some times we need to build it. | 14:50 |
| aarobc | So I updated to the propriatary AMD video driver to play witcher 2, but now ksp crashes whenever I try to start the game save | 14:51 |
| === brian is now known as Guest47945 | ||
| ez1 | shunya_chakra: as far as i know you never build a binary package | 14:51 |
| ez1 | because it is actually built | 14:51 |
| ez1 | let mw show you this | 14:52 |
| ez1 | http://qt-project.org/downloads | 14:52 |
| ez1 | you can see the "online installer" | 14:52 |
| Gallomimia | shunya_chakra: usually the installer is one set of programs that deal with all the packages. you can use it to update all stuff or install new programs, either from repositories or downloaded packages | 14:53 |
| ez1 | and also you can see the "source code is available..." | 14:53 |
| ez1 | Gallomimia: yes, but usually the installer manages COMPILED packages, i.e., uses the binaries | 14:54 |
| shunya_chakra | I think now I got... it.. | 14:54 |
| ez1 | *use | 14:54 |
| shunya_chakra | ez1, Gallomimia | 14:54 |
| ez1 | of course i might be wrong, im not an expert | 14:54 |
| DHE | okay, I'm running Trusty now but still can't find the 32 bit version of libX11.so.6 (64 bit package is libx11-6) | 14:54 |

| majod | how are nvidia proprietary drivers on ubuntu ?do they work without problems? im interested in buying gtx760 card to be used with nvidia drivers | 15:03 |
| ez1 | As a final note, i'd talk about the "multiplatform" programs, such as those done in Java, there is no compilation, there is instead a "middle-layer" code called Bytecode which is executed by the Java virtual machine. | 15:03 |
| ez1 | however the bytecode is treated as a binary file | 15:04 |
| === felipealmeida_AW is now known as felipealmeida | ||
| dino82 | Hmm | 15:08 |

| skinux | Sound recorder won't start recording. "Record As" menu is empty. Any advice? | 15:41 |

| Phat2 | ikonia: So everything that works on Ubuntu works on Xubuntu? I can follow Ubuntu guides and such? | 15:41 |
| Deepfriedice | Phat2, sure. | 15:41 |
| ikonia | Phat2: as long as there is no dependency on desktop tools, yes | 15:41 |
| Phat2 | ikonia: Far less people in there. :( | 15:41 |
| ikonia | Phat2: the desktop tools/libraries are different | 15:41 |
| intx | Phat2: everything that isn't dependent on gnome | 15:41 |
| ikonia | Phat2: good people in there though | 15:41 |
| ikonia | very good people infact | 15:42 |
| Phat2 | Deepfriedice: Awesome. | 15:42 |
| ez1 | Phat2: xubuntu, as lubuntu, are distributions that come from ubuntu and are specifically developed for computers with low resources/power | 15:42 |
| Phat2 | intx: And that is a lot of stuff? :P | 15:42 |
| ez1 | i have for example lubuntu installed in an old acer one | 15:42 |
| d0lph1n98 | so i should start a conversation no matter how childish the question or maybe non-technical questions and slowly move into the technical part? | 15:42 |
| ez1 | aspire one | 15:42 |
| _crypthelp | bekks: definitely have device mapper support, ahci sata, ich sata support all built into the kernel ... lvm, cryptoloop, etc. :( | 15:42 |
| Phat2 | ikonia: I don't doubt it! :) | 15:42 |
| ikonia | d0lph1n98: #ubuntu is for ubuntu technical support #ubuntu-offtopic has the same policies as #ubuntu, eg: no swearing no offensive topics, but does not do support | 15:43 |
| intx | Phat2: depends what you're using the system for, it may be nothing that affects you, or half the stuff you're going to use | 15:43 |
| Phat2 | ez1: I don't need to save resources or power, but I do love XFCE. | 15:43 |
| ez1 | Phat2: maybe not, because there is a reduced set of installed things | 15:43 |
| Phat2 | intx: Yikes! | 15:43 |
| MonkeyDust | d0lph1n98 skip the conversation and ask your question | 15:43 |
| ez1 | phat2 then use XFCE | 15:43 |
| Phat2 | ez1: Wait. Xubuntu IS using XFCE? | 15:43 |
| ikonia | Phat2: xubuntu is xfce | 15:44 |
| ez1 | i dont know, i used lubuntu time ago | 15:44 |
| Phat2 | ikonia: Phew! :) | 15:44 |
| Deepfriedice | Phat2, Don't worry about it. If you install Xubuntu you'll get XFCE. If the package manager ends up downloading a few GNOME-libraries it's not the end of the world. | 15:44 |
| Phat2 | Deepfriedice: XD | 15:44 |

| ikonia | I advise against that guide | 15:44 |
| Phat2 | ez1: Isn't it easier to just install Xubuntu? :P | 15:45 |
| ez1 | Phat2: if you install xubuntu you might have some limitations | 15:46 |
| Phat2 | "On 7 December 2012, Richard Stallman said that Ubuntu contains spyware and should not be used by free software supporters. Jono Bacon rebuked him; he said that Ubuntu responded and implemented many of the requirements the community found important." Is he talking about the search results in dash or what? | 15:46 |
| ikonia | no you will not | 15:46 |
| ikonia | Phat2: xubuntu - is fine | 15:46 |
| Phat2 | ez1: Like that? | 15:46 |
| ikonia | ez1: why would he have limitations | 15:46 |
| Deepfriedice | ez1, Huh? | 15:46 |
| ez1 | because as i said, there is a reduced set of installed programs | 15:46 |
| ez1 | yes you will | 15:46 |
| ikonia | you will have no limitations | 15:46 |
| ikonia | the core OS components are the same, the desktop tools are the difference | 15:46 |
| ez1 | Deepfriedice: what i just mean is that you will have a REDUCED set of installed programs and you will have extra work for some applications | 15:47 |
| ez1 | just that | 15:47 |
| ikonia | that is not true | 15:47 |
| Deepfriedice | You won't even have extra work - that's the package manager's job. | 15:47 |
| Phat2 | ikonia: I trust you, but it always bothers me when people are telling me different things. | 15:47 |
| ikonia | Phat2: just poor information, nothing more, | 15:48 |
| ez1 | that is true ikonia | 15:48 |
| ez1 | for example, you can have some problems when recognizing hardware | 15:48 |
| ikonia | no you cannot | 15:48 |
| ez1 | why should I lie ? | 15:48 |
| ikonia | ez1: please stop giving wrong information | 15:48 |
| ikonia | Phat2: the kernel is exactly the same in ubuntu/xubuntu - and as that contains the "drivers" for hardware it will find the hardware just the same | 15:49 |

| kaka | Hi, can anyone help me with ubuntu 14.04 + nvidia? I only can login with LXDE. | 16:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaka: do you also have an Intel GPU? | 16:28 |
| ActionParsnip | LXDE is da bom | 16:28 |
| kaka | yes. is nvidia optimus | 16:28 |
| kaka | with corei3 | 16:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaka: are you using Bumblebee or nvidia prime? | 16:29 |
| ActionParsnip | That Optimus junk is such a hack | 16:29 |
| kaka | I really just don't know what I have. I have tried many things. Can we start from the beggining? | 16:29 |
| kaka | My objective is finishes using Cinnamon if possible | 16:30 |

| ActionParsnip | Kaka: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee | 16:30 |
| ActionParsnip | bekks: its only in Saucy now | 16:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaka: you will need a PPA for Cinnamon | 16:31 |
| === david is now known as toyotapie | ||
| kaka | I have the PPA. I started my ubuntu with unity working. After installing cinnamon, then nothing worked | 16:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaka: that link is all i know. Ive seen so very many issues with Optimus that I am avoiding it like the plague and have no idea how to get it working well. Maybe others can advise | 16:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaka: well, you did add a 3rd party package source which has modified your OS. So who knows what else may hapen | 16:33 |
| kaka | ok thank you ActionParsnip | 16:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaka: its probably easier to install gnome-panel and use that instead of some PPA things | 16:33 |
| kaka | but now i have installed gnome-classic, unity and lxde, and only simple lxde works now | 16:34 |
| kaka | but it seems is driver or nvidia/blumblebee or any video related issue | 16:34 |

| mitch_reward | hi guys, I got a laptop: acer aspire V, running ubuntu 13.10. And I got a problem, the laptop is coming out of sleeping mode, alone, randomly | 16:47 |
| mitch_reward | it's really anoying cause I work with it, and sometime, I take it out of my bag, and it's running low on battery | 16:47 |
| kslt1 | Does it happen with all folders, or just this one? Maybe a loop in the file system? | 16:47 |
| mitch_reward | any idea to monitor it, to track why it comes out of hibernate? | 16:48 |
| sl33k_ | I am lost with the frequentness of desktop freeze. I have noticed this is the case while streaming videos. Any thoughts? | 16:49 |
| _crypthelp | getting the "evms_activate is not available" on boot now. crypttab and fstab both point to actual device names not UUID now as well, not sure what I'm doing wrong. :> | 16:49 |
| kslt1 | mitch_reward: if you bump the lid down too hard, it'll jostle keys on the keyboard, which cause it to wake up. | 16:49 |
| bobby_ | HI, I have a couple of ubuntu servers i run on laptops. After a while the entire screen turns white. How can i avoid this | 16:49 |
| OerHeks | mitch_reward, when you drop the bag, your touchpad recognized it as an action, i would not hybernate and carry around | 16:49 |
| rettop | ActionParsnip, it was my keyboard????? | 16:51 |
| mitch_reward | nope, cause It happens even if the laptop is idle on the desktop | 16:51 |
| ActionParsnip | sl33k_: how do you mean "lost"? | 16:51 |
| rettop | ActionParsnip, I just changed keyboards and the clicking thing on my mouse went away | 16:51 |
| ActionParsnip | rettop: ahhhh nice one | 16:51 |
| rettop | ActionParsnip, fluke, dude | 16:51 |
| rettop | ActionParsnip, what happened? | 16:51 |
| ActionParsnip | rettop: cheaper than a PSU :-) | 16:51 |
| kslt1 | Isn't there a sleep mode, and a serparate hibernate mode? Sleep mode wakes up on keyboard presses, and hibernate mode wakes up only when you hit the power button. Try the mode that requires fewer keys to be hit to wake it up. | 16:51 |
| rettop | was it maybe the wireless keyboard sending broken up signals or something? | 16:52 |
| rettop | ActionParsnip, i plugged in a wired keyboard and it's fine now | 16:52 |
| ActionParsnip | rettop: if you plug the keyboard back in, does it start again? | 16:52 |
| guesting | I have Ubuntu 12.04 and I am trying to remove ghc, but I get this error: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg received a segmentation fault | 16:52 |

| Tohsh | maybe I'm just wondering why all of a sudden on a new release I have to use this flag when I haven't all the way back to 12.04 on the same hardware | 17:22 |
| jordi_ | Is strange because in live session appears additional drivers to install but when I install ubuntu to hd dissapears the option | 17:22 |
| ikonia | because kernels change and nvidia modules change | 17:22 |
| Tohsh | so if I remove my video card I shouldn't have to use nomodeset? | 17:23 |
| harry99 | ikonia: don't understand the script | 17:23 |

| xufi | Can someone help me getting Ubuntu on a USB drive? Whenever I try to use UNetbootin, my PC reboots, I select to boot from USB, and there's a BOOTMGR (or something) error text. :( | 17:46 |
| surfer007 | i cant change my screen brightness using settings ..... anyways to fix it... | 17:46 |
| zombu2 | xufi try yumi | 17:46 |
| xufi | zombu2: You need to tell me more. | 17:46 |
| zombu2 | if your machine reboots i would say you have a hardware issue on the usb | 17:46 |
| zombu2 | or driver issue | 17:47 |
| xufi | zombu2: No, I meant that I choose to reboot. | 17:47 |
| zombu2 | oh | 17:47 |
| zombu2 | well google yumi | 17:47 |
| zombu2 | try that | 17:47 |
| xufi | :S | 17:47 |
| MonkeyDust_ | xufi what system are you in now, windows or linux? | 17:48 |
| zombu2 | write image with yumi then try to boot if you get a grub error update your bios | 17:48 |
| xufi | MonkeyDust_: Windows. | 17:48 |
| MonkeyDust_ | xufi then yes, you can use yumi | 17:48 |
| zombu2 | and make sure you do not have the usb stick in a usb 3 port during boot that won t work | 17:49 |
| xufi | MonkeyDust_: I'll try FAT32 on USB drive first. | 17:49 |
| zombu2 | it has to be fat32 | 17:49 |
| bekks | zombu2: booting from usb3 works fine here. | 17:49 |
| xufi | zombu2: Yes, I always do that. | 17:49 |
| zombu2 | yumi will take care of that | 17:49 |
| xufi | zombu2: It has to be? | 17:49 |
| xufi | zombu2: Then I'll try UNetbootin again. | 17:49 |
| xufi | No wonder it wouldn't work! XD | 17:50 |
| pickledherring | ikonia, gigolo is not what i am looking for. i want to know the location on the filesystem where, once connected in the gnome file manager, the NAS resource is mounted. | 17:50 |

| pickledherring | zombu2 - I only have ./cdrom and ./ubuntu in /media | 17:52 |
| surfer007 | that too not working. | 17:52 |
| pickledherring | ./ubuntu is a hard drive | 17:52 |
| zombu2 | does the nas show in file manager>? | 17:52 |
| pickledherring | yes, it does, it has an eject symbol next to the resource on the left window | 17:52 |
| zombu2 | you might have to mountg it in fstab and give it a location to mount | 17:53 |
| zombu2 | did you check /mnt? | 17:53 |
| pickledherring | i've tried that, i keep getting a return code of -111 in my dmesg | 17:53 |
| MonkeyDust_ | pickledherring in a terminal, type mount do you see the nas? | 17:53 |
| pickledherring | might it be a gvfsd-fuse? | 17:54 |
| pickledherring | i am running from the live dvd by the way | 17:54 |
| MonkeyDust_ | pickledherring yes, look in home for .gvfs | 17:54 |
| pickledherring | ok, thanks | 17:54 |
| zombu2 | -111 is a error in the fstab line you added | 17:55 |
| pickledherring | i haven't added any fstab lines, it's a live CD | 17:55 |

| Hiro` | Hey guys, I want to install gnugol - https://github.com/dtaht/Gnugol - and it requires the curl-dev library. Only problem is, there is no such library available with apt-get. Trying instead apt-get install libcurl-dev, I am prompted to install one of the following: libcurl4-openssl-dev 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.8, libcurl4-nss-dev 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.8, or libcurl4-gnutls-dev 7.22.0-3ubuntu4.8.

| e^ | Hiro`: i think apt-get install -y <package> | 18:10 |
| e^ | installs the dependencies as well | 18:10 |
| Hiro` | Do you mean install gnugol with that flag? Unfortunately, it must be built from source. | 18:12 |
| Hiro` | Thanks, though. | 18:12 |
| Hiro` | It also says that libcurl-dev is a virtual package, provided by the above packages, if that's significant. | 18:13 |
| trism | Hiro`: there are a couple curl dev packages: libcurl4-gnutls-dev libcurl4-nss-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev | 18:13 |
| Hiro` | trism: thanks. I guess I'm asking which one I should install or whether it matters. | 18:14 |
| altin | where do you prefer installing grub menu aside windows 8 ? | 18:14 |
| altin | should I install it on dev/sda | 18:14 |
| trism | Hiro`: it may not matter, I think there can be licensing issues using the openssl so some packages link to gnutls...or something like that | 18:15 |
| altin | or example: dev/sda6 where my root partition is ? | 18:15 |
| Hiro` | trism: great, thanks! | 18:15 |

| Armag3dd0n24 | anyone know if it's possible to restore a samsung galaxy tab 3 10.1 on ubuntu 14.04??? | 18:24 |
| daftykins | define: restore | 18:24 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | like, remove the OS that's on it (it's a custom rom) and put original firmware back on it? | 18:25 |
| qwik | only local disc C* | 18:25 |
| daftykins | Armag3dd0n24: that's totally beyond the scope of ubuntu support. | 18:26 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | so windows it is then? lol | 18:26 |
| daftykins | no, i'm saying it's an inappropriate topic for you to ask here | 18:26 |
| nimbiotics | Is there any way to sync a folder on my PC to a folder I connect via SSH? How? | 18:26 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | ?? it's related to ubuntu though :/ | 18:27 |
| OerHeks | Armag3dd0n24, if the tool is dos, use freedos. | 18:27 |
| daftykins | Armag3dd0n24: no, it's not | 18:27 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | yes it is | 18:27 |
| daftykins | you cannot argue this :) | 18:27 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | yes i can :p lol | 18:27 |
| popey | I'd say it's a valid question tbh. | 18:27 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | nah i know | 18:27 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | it's okay | 18:27 |

| Armag3dd0n24 | not sur tbh | 18:28 |

| jackarius86 | hello everyone, I am considering converting to ubuntu using the minimal install, does anyone know if the minimal provides support for wifi networking?? | 18:28 |
| popey | Armag3dd0n24: if it uses a horrid windows only thing then maybe out of luck | 18:29 |
| Armag3dd0n24 | yeah, thanks anyway. suppose i better jump on windows :( | 18:29 |
| lotuspsychje | jackarius86: wifi drivers should download if you enable updates during setup | 18:29 |
| popey | lotuspsychje: nope. not on minimal install | 18:30 |
| lotuspsychje | popey: what happens after update then? | 18:30 |
| jackarius86 | lotuspsychje: it will be too late to download the drivers if theyr not already there when i begin the install | 18:30 |
| popey | lotuspsychje: an update will update whatever is already installed, not magically add drivers | 18:31 |
| lotuspsychje | popey: so you cant enable wifi on minimal? | 18:31 |
| instrmnt | I'm a total noob with Ubuntu but very eager to learn. Can someone explain how tar.gz files work? Are they like .zip files? I recently downloaded a flash update in tar.gz format, but I'm not sure how to use it. I downloaded it and extracted it to a folder of my choosing, but I'm not sure how I apply the update from there. I know there are easier ways of going about this using GUI functions, but I w | 18:31 |
| popey | depends, you can certainly connect to open wifi on minimal | 18:31 |
| popey | might not be able to get on WPA encrypted wifi | 18:31 |
| instrmnt | want to understand the system and be able to use the terminal. | 18:32 |
| jackarius86 | instrmnt: tar.gz files can be extracted using tar -xzf foo.tar.gz | 18:32 |
| popey | instrmnt: they are "like" zip files, yes. | 18:32 |
| popey | not identical, but similar in nature | 18:32 |

| popey | instrmnt: apply? | 18:32 |
| lotuspsychje | popey: and 3rd party software | 18:32 |
| jackarius86 | popey: do you know where i can find out if i can connect to my wifi? | 18:33 |
| popey | lotuspsychje: your questions are somewhat vague and not specific, what do you mean? | 18:33 |
| instrmnt | when I extract the files I get a readme and what looks like config files | 18:33 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: why not use the adobeflash-plugin from the partner repo, does the work for you | 18:33 |
| popey | jackarius86: http://askubuntu.com/questions/461825/connect-to-wifi-from-command-line | 18:33 |

| qwik | how to send shortcut of application to desktop? | 18:34 |
| jackarius86 | thanks popey | 18:34 |
| instrmnt | jackarius: thanks! can you explain what that does? | 18:34 |
| lotuspsychje | popey: in normal setup you can choose 'update during setup', does minimal have this option too? | 18:34 |
| qwik | how to send shortcut of skype to desktop on ubuntu 14.04? | 18:34 |
| ActionParsnip | qwik: you can copy the file for the app in /usr/share/applications to $HOME/Desktop | 18:34 |
| popey | lotuspsychje: no, and that box doesn't do what you think it does. | 18:35 |
| popey | instrmnt: what is the contents of the tar.gz file? | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | qwik: ln -s /usr/share/applications/skype.desktop $HOME/Desktop/Skype.desktop | 18:35 |
| daftykins | lotuspsychje: you should probably virtualise an install with a mini.iso to see, it's a very basic text mode installer that requires internet connectivity to function. ever do a debian net install? | 18:35 |
| jackarius86 | instrmnt: ./configure checks your environment variables to see that your system is capable of compiling the package | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | qwik: or just drag it to the Unity launcher from Dash | 18:36 |
| instrmnt | popey: a usr folder, a readme, and a libflashplayer.so file | 18:36 |
| jackarius86 | make then compiles | 18:36 |
| lotuspsychje | daftykins: ill stick to regular ubuntu install, dont need minimal myself | 18:36 |
| jackarius86 | make install then applies the compiled articles to your system | 18:36 |
| popey | instrmnt: you dont want to install from that, flash player is in the repository | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | jackarius86: adobe flash is proprietary, there is nothing to compile | 18:36 |
| popey | instrmnt: as ActionParsnip said, just install adobeflash-plugin via "sudo apt-get install adobeflash-plugin" | 18:36 |
| daftykins | lotuspsychje: i meant if you want to learn, so you don't mislead anyone | 18:36 |
| instrmnt | ok | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: enable partner repo in software centre then install adobeflash-plugin | 18:37 |
| jackarius86 | oh yeah flash, just get from the repo, like most things | 18:37 |
| tt | hi | 18:37 |

| popey | instrmnt: nah, just start using it and don't follow instructions on random blogs ☻ | 18:38 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: use terminal instead of the GUI and you will get better at it | 18:38 |

| phi0x | hey guys, i have a strange issue. i installed the latest ati drivers on a fresh install of 14.04 64bit and when I rebooted after doing the amdconfig --adapters=all --initial command, xorg seems to get reset in gpu-monitor.log in /var/logs. then the file is basically very null compared to all the config settings that show up prior to reboot when I run the amdconfig command and the xorg.conf is generated. | 18:41 |
| ki7mt | May be a bit late, but we use this for teach the basics: http://linuxcommand.org/learning_the_shell.php | 18:42 |

| rtzui | black, as in monitor has no signal | 18:46 |
| rtzui | not as in empty console | 18:46 |
| rtzui | the console flashes for about half a second (i can't read anything in that time) | 18:47 |

| daftykins | ki7mt: i meant no offence, however there was actually someone that asked a question that could've done with your link just earlier | 18:47 |
| phi0x | does anyone know what would overwrite the xorg.conf changes upon boot? | 18:47 |

| instrmnt | Thanks! What does the command do? | 18:50 |
| rtzui | ActionParsnip, that does not help | 18:50 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: if you run the command like: appname & ,the ampersand will background it for you. The IRC client is a child of the terminal, so if you close terminal it will close the IRC client | 18:50 |
| instrmnt | I see! | 18:51 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: it puts the app to the background, you can use bg and fg to bring commands to the front and back as you need | 18:51 |
| ianorlin | ah cool that is how you backgroudn stuff if you don't start it in background | 18:51 |
| walmyr_ | #tallerws | 18:52 |

| instrmnt | just curious | 18:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ianorlin: yes and you can fg it too. You can bg lots of commands and bring back to the fore as you need, each thread gets a number | 18:52 |

| ActionParsnip | Ash_: look for the text "driver=" in the output | 19:03 |
| pensiero | ciao raga | 19:04 |
| ash_ | say's ath5k | 19:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: you dont need to have any idea. Its simple reading | 19:04 |
| e^ | i found a site | 19:04 |
| lotuspsychje | !it | pensiero | 19:04 |
| ubottu | pensiero: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) | 19:04 |
| e^ | xorAxAx: http://www.howtogeek.com/187774/how-to-disable-the-global-menu-in-ubuntu-13.10/ | 19:04 |
| ash_ | sorry, say's ath5k | 19:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: thats it. So you do have an idea | 19:04 |
| pensiero | ok guyz i can understand even english | 19:04 |
| ash_ | hahaha excuseme!! because Im sad for this.. :( | 19:04 |
| lotuspsychje | ash_: do you see a wifi icon in right corner of screen? | 19:04 |
| pensiero | whats the topic here | 19:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: if you run: sudo iwlist scan ,do you see wireless networks? | 19:05 |
| ash_ | yeah I see mi icon | 19:05 |
| ash_ | yeah | 19:05 |
| lotuspsychje | pensiero: this channel supports ubuntu problems | 19:05 |
| === ezhik`_ is now known as Guest21057 | ||
| xorAxAx | e^: ok, deinstalled, has no effect | 19:05 |
| ash_ | I seee | 19:05 |
| lotuspsychje | ash_: so what happens when you click a network? | 19:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: see what? | 19:05 |
| instrmnt | how to access internet router via ubuntu terminal? | 19:06 |
| === Guest21057 is now known as ezhik_ | ||
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: some routers allow telnet access | 19:06 |
| ash_ | when restart mi pc, i have problems, i cant see mi icon of wifi! | 19:06 |
| ash_ | is that | 19:06 |
| xorAxAx | e^: fixed it | 19:06 |
| ash_ | I read, its my drivers, its a problem | 19:06 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: or you may get access with links2 etc (terminal based browsers) | 19:06 |
| instrmnt | ActionParsnip: so i'd need to install telnet? | 19:06 |
| xorAxAx | e^: the xfce4-indicator-plugin still had libappmenu.so loaded | 19:06 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: i believe telnet is default installed but you can install it if you need | 19:07 |
| lotuspsychje | ash_: you have a wifi button on your laptop? | 19:07 |
| e^ | xorAxAx: nice | 19:07 |
| ash_ | I read, i need install the madwifi, but, i have xubuntu 14.04, i dont know if is compatibilty | 19:07 |
| ash_ | yeah | 19:07 |
| bekks | telnet isnt installed by default anymore. It deserves to be extincted. :) | 19:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: does 'sudo iwlist scan' show wireless nwtworks, yess or no? | 19:07 |
| ash_ | my laptop is a compaq cq50 | 19:07 |
| ActionParsnip | bekks: its a handy diagnostic tool | 19:08 |
| ash_ | yes | 19:08 |
| Nightray | Hi! I am thinking about installing ubuntu, but I have few questions before I do so. Could anyone help me? | 19:08 |
| xorAxAx | e^: now i have the next problem - xfce4-indicator-plugin doesnt let me hide elements (clicking the checkbox in the settings does nothing= | 19:08 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: shoot away :p | 19:08 |
| instrmnt | how do i use telnet to connect to my router? | 19:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: ok if you rerun: sudo lshw -C network ,do you see wlan0 as the interface name or is it something different | 19:08 |
| lotuspsychje | instrmnt: i would rather try links2 as ActionParsnip sugests | 19:09 |
| nimbiotics | Hello all. I've been reading about rsync but I cant understand whether the sync is 2-way or whether I should reverse the order of the folder for in order to do so. Please clarify this issu. TIA | 19:09 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: run: telnet 192.168.0.1 , assuming that is the IP of you router internally | 19:09 |
| Nightray | First question is which ubuntu will work best with my rig. I've been told to use amd64 version but I want to make sure | 19:09 |
| ActionParsnip | lotuspsychje: not all systems will acept connections from links2 | 19:09 |
| ash_ | says: not exisst the archive | 19:09 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: your hardware is 64bit? | 19:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Nightray: if you have a 64bit CPU use 64bit Ubuntu | 19:10 |
| zerotresBR | #2 | 19:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: use UP cursor, you got the command ok last time.... | 19:10 |
| rww | Nightray: if you're not sure whether you have a 64-bit CPU, tell us the CPU or the computer model | 19:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: it will show the last commands you ran | 19:11 |
| ash_ | can you write the command here please friend?? | 19:11 |
| Nightray | rww, ActionParsnip, lotuspsychje: Intel Core i7 2600K LGA1155 | 19:11 |
| rww | Nightray: yep, that'll work fine with amd64 | 19:11 |
| instrmnt | ActionParsnip: how do i figure out what my routers ip is from the terminal? | 19:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: sudo lshw -C network | 19:11 |
| ash_ | appaer: ed: invalid option --c | 19:11 |
| ash_ | ahh ok | 19:12 |
| ash_ | appaer: | 19:12 |
| Nightray | but 64 or amd64? as far as I can tell there are those two 64 versions | 19:12 |
| ash_ | ammm | 19:12 |
| rww | Nightray: amd64 | 19:12 |
| rww | Nightray: the architecture was developed by amd, hence the name | 19:12 |
| ash_ | AR242X / AR542X WIERELESS NETWOK ADAPTER | 19:12 |
| soveregnentity | Is this the offica | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: route -n | grep 'UG[ \t]' | awk '{print $2}' | 19:12 |
| Nightray | fair enough | 19:13 |
| michaelford89734 | amd64 arch will work on AMD or Intel procs dosen't matter | 19:13 |
| rww | Nightray: it's the one the Ubuntu website refers to as "64-bit" | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: no I asked for the interface name | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: do you see wlan0 or eth1 as the interface name? | 19:13 |
| ash_ | NOOO I DONT SEE WHERES THATA? | 19:13 |
| Nightray | second question I have ONLY (yeah, I know) 8gb ram. Should I have swap partition? | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: kill the dam caps | 19:14 |
| lotuspsychje | !swap | Nightray | 19:14 |
| ubottu | Nightray: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: we can read lowercase. Using caps does absolutely nothing | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: ok? | 19:14 |
| ash_ | says: | 19:14 |
| ash_ | wlan0 | 19:14 |
| michaelford89734 | swap, not needed sso much with 8gb of ram, but i still keep a small one around of 1GB, just to not break old apps i still run | 19:14 |
| instrmnt | ActionParsnip: How do I figure out what my router ip address is? | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: i gave a command to get it, scroll up | 19:15 |
| ash_ | interface inalambrica | 19:15 |
| Nightray | lotuspsychje: I read few guides on that and one said that I should have swap 8gb, other 16gb and another said that there is no point in having swap | 19:15 |
| Nightray | that's why I am asking here | 19:15 |
| instrmnt | ActionParsnip: sorry, my connection timed out | 19:15 |
| michaelford89734 | my main machine has 12GB of ram, havent touched the swap partition in months | 19:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: then why the need for the outburst of capitals....when you can see it? | 19:15 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: you can use the automatic partitioning also in setup, will auto assign swap space | 19:15 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: route -n | grep 'UG[ \t]' | awk '{print $2}' | 19:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: why was it necessary? | 19:16 |
| michaelford89734 | yes but will assign uneeded amount of space for swap based on actual ram. best to set yourseld | 19:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue | 19:16 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: shows just amd drivers i believe | 19:16 |
| ash_ | Ubuntu 14.04 lts n l | 19:17 |
| Nightray | ok, so last question. It seems that my headset has no linuks drivers. Is there any way (or point in doing so) to install windows drivers? | 19:17 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: wich grafix drivers came by default, before you installed latest? | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: as the system is a laptop, have you connected the system to a wired connection to get fully updated using Ethernet? | 19:17 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: not sure standard ubuntu ones? | 19:17 |
| ash_ | no | 19:17 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: yes | 19:17 |
| ash_ | i use mi wifi, because i format mi pc! | 19:17 |
| wexwimpy | I installed Xubuntu14.4 and my mouse lags tryed new mouse | 19:18 |
| ash_ | but, in some days, comes the problem the wifi | 19:18 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: maybe try a switch and see what it does? | 19:18 |
| ash_ | hmmm sorry for my english friend... im mexican... | 19:18 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: does your headset need windows drivers? | 19:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: you said you were Mexican a while back. I assumed nothing has changed in the time we have chatted | 19:19 |
| Nightray | lotuspsychje: yup | 19:19 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: to do what exactly? | 19:19 |
| michaelford89734 | get a better headset, most shoud work just fine under any linux | 19:19 |
| ash_ | ahhh oka, jaja | 19:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: connect the laptop to a wired connection and run full system updates. Then reboot the system | 19:19 |
| ash_ | only that my friend? | 19:20 |
| wexwimpy | installed Xubuntu 14.04 but starting to get mouse lag | 19:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: the updates may fix the issue | 19:20 |
| Nightray | lotuspsychje: Well.. to be awesome. Without drivers it sucks.I have sound blaster tactic 3d alpha | 19:20 |
| ActionParsnip | wexwimpy: is the system fully updated? | 19:20 |
| ash_ | ok | 19:20 |
| ash_ | thanks my friend | 19:21 |
| wexwimpy | is there a way to get mouse working ? | 19:21 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: you mean drivers of your soundcard then? | 19:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Ash_: plus its easy as the system is mobile | 19:21 |
| wexwimpy | yes | 19:21 |
| ActionParsnip | wexwimpy: what GPU do you use? | 19:21 |
| ash_ | rigth! | 19:21 |
| wexwimpy | dont know | 19:21 |
| nimbiotics | Hello all. I've been reading about rsync but I cant understand whether the sync is 2-way or whether I should reverse the order of the folder for in order to do so. Please clarify this issu. TIA | 19:21 |
| Nightray | lotuspsychje: the soundcard is in the headset | 19:22 |
| Nightray | lotuspsychje: but technically, yes | 19:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: first i hear of a soundcard inside headset, but i assume ubuntu will recognize when plugged in maybe | 19:22 |
| instrmnt | I've tried accessing my router via both links2 and telnet but i get an access denied every time. How do I go about doing this? | 19:23 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: rsync is one way. Files are updated if source is newer than dest | 19:23 |
| lotuspsychje | instrmnt: what ip are you trying to connect? | 19:23 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: you'll need to do it both ways manually to get a 2 way | 19:24 |
| instrmnt | I'm just trying my router ip. I used the route -n command to get the ip address | 19:24 |
| Nightray | lotuspsychje: headset is connected to the usb adapter which requires drivers to work some magic | 19:24 |
| ActionParsnip | instrmnt: check your router model allows telnet access and that it is enabled of it does | 19:24 |
| instrmnt | are there certain types of routers that just don't let you acces them? | 19:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: plugin your adapter and headset during ubuntu setup then | 19:25 |
| * kilab33z | 19:25 | |
| nimbiotics | ActionParsnip: Thanks a lot! | 19:25 |
| Nightray | ok | 19:25 |
| Nightray | thanks | 19:25 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: notnall routers do it | 19:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Nightray: good luck with your new ubuntu experience! | 19:26 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: although having telnet installed is handy | 19:26 |
| lotuspsychje | too late | 19:26 |
| nimbiotics | ActionParsnip: no idea what telnet is and I dont have much control over the remote server. I'm connecting via SSH | 19:27 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: did u see output? | 19:27 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: can you tell us your end goal? did you default grafix drivers not work, that you installed latest ones? | 19:29 |
| phi0x | i have amd cards so i need amd drivers. | 19:29 |
| phi0x | when running regular drivers xorg does not launch either. | 19:29 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: but did it not work out of the box? | 19:29 |
| phi0x | screen blank on computer | 19:29 |
| phi0x | can only ssh to comp. | 19:29 |
| phi0x | it only worked when i had one card in the box. | 19:30 |
| phi0x | amd worked as well with one card. | 19:30 |
| phi0x | when i plugged in the rest, it stopped. xorg then re-wrote itself every reboot. | 19:30 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: you use 2 grafix cards togheter? | 19:30 |
| phi0x | 6 | 19:30 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 19:30 |
| phi0x | i've got 6 working on an older distro | 19:30 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: you got 6 screens? | 19:30 |
| phi0x | and had 6 working in 12.04 a while back. | 19:30 |
| phi0x | no i dont use monitors | 19:31 |
| e^ | cracking? | 19:31 |
| e^ | :p | 19:31 |
| phi0x | just need to ssh into the box | 19:31 |
| phi0x | software needs the cards to work, for processing | 19:31 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: telnet is like ssh but with zero security | 19:31 |
| Taev | how can how can i tell what version of ubuntu im running? | 19:31 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: can you lshw -C video for us lolz | 19:31 |
| * lotuspsychje is curious | 19:31 | |
| ActionParsnip | Taev: cat /etc/issue | 19:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Taev: works on all GNU distributions :-) | 19:32 |
| Taev | 8.04 | 19:32 |
| Taev | is that old? | 19:32 |
| lotuspsychje | oO | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Taev: yes, its no longer supported | 19:32 |
| lotuspsychje | Taev: we have good news 14.04 is out :p | 19:32 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: when i do that cmd lshw -C it doesnt work. gives me full help output | 19:33 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: sudo lshw -C video | 19:34 |
| lotuspsychje | !paste | phi0x | 19:34 |
| ubottu | phi0x: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 19:34 |
| nimbiotics | ActionParsnip: im reading about, now, would I need to install/configure anything on the server? All I have is server name, port, user and password. Im connecting via SSH and am able to do most of what I need via Caja . How would I benefit from telnet? | 19:35 |
| phi0x | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7560925/ | 19:35 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: if your router allows telnet you may need to set it as enabled. | 19:35 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: is 6 times the same card, loaded same driver | 19:36 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: yes all 6 cards are the same type. | 19:36 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: driver=fglrx_pci seems okay | 19:36 |
| nimbiotics | ActionParsnip: I can do that on my side, not sure about the other side though but again, how would I benefit from telnet? | 19:36 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7560939/ | 19:37 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: you can configure your router using cli, like you wanted. Yes? | 19:37 |
| ggherdov | hi, is there a way to check the integrity of all files from package X? I suspect I have a package with some broken file, i'd like apt to check that for me | 19:37 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: so you have nu GUI? whats your problem for your cards then? | 19:38 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: when I run the fglrxinfo cmd it does nothing. it stalls just hangs. when i run sgminer software it doesnt do anything, hangs as well. | 19:39 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: and yes no display when i hookup monitor to just test. have to always ssh. | 19:40 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: maybe you better of with ubuntu server? | 19:41 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: this happened on server edition as well. | 19:41 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: after clean install? | 19:41 |
| phi0x | yes | 19:41 |
| LinxCat | anyone have problems setting up their BMC4352 Wireless network adapter on ubuntu? | 19:42 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: i think it has something to do with the system re-writting xorg.conf. when i do the amd cmd to build xorg for the cards, it resets to that output i posted in pastebin. | 19:42 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: you sure its not a hardware thing, cause all your drivers loaded fine so it seems | 19:42 |
| nimbiotics | ActionParsnip: Sorry I got disconnected and dont know if you answered my last question | 19:42 |
| lotuspsychje | !broadcom | LinxCat | 19:43 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: when i reload the old linux image onto the usb flash drive, that old image works just fine. | 19:43 |
| ubottu | LinxCat: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 19:43 |
| wilee-nilee | LinxCat, Have you have seen the broadcom link wiki? | 19:43 |
| wilee-nilee | above now | 19:43 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: old image isnt 64bit its 32bit. i want to get 64bit going as its needed for some of the software i need to use | 19:43 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: and what version of ubuntu did work? | 19:43 |
| LinxCat | i was looking at that page. i am confused as to which driver i should download because noone of them say that they support "BCM4352" | 19:44 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: using telnet will allow you to configue your router via cli, which is what you wanted, right? | 19:44 |
| ActionParsnip | nimbiotics: does the system you are sshing to have a desktop ui running? | 19:45 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: i once had 12.04 working | 19:45 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: 64bit as well but that ubuntu was unstable with the flash drive, always freezing up. | 19:45 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: and you upgraded or clean install 14.04? | 19:45 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: clean install of 14.04 desktop and also tried 14.04 server. | 19:45 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: thats really weird, both installs work and load your grafix drivers..not sure whats going on | 19:47 |
| phi0x | something is re-writting the xorg upon reboot | 19:47 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: maybe pastebin your xorg log from /var/log | 19:48 |
| nimbiotics | ActionParsnip: Im not sure what you meant bycoonfigure my router, guess u might be confused. The system Im sshing can run a gui, but all I really need is to be able to sync a folder reciprocally from home | 19:48 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: or some relevant errors on /var/log/syslog | 19:49 |
| OerHeks | !scp | 19:50 |
| ubottu | scp is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/ | 19:50 |
| nimbiotics | ActionParsnip: this is what I got when I tried to telnet the serer: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7561056/ | 19:51 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7561057/ | 19:51 |
| coffeedrinking | hi | 19:51 |
| coffeedrinking | exit | 19:53 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: here is the xorg.conf after i run amdconfig command to initialize all cards http://paste.ubuntu.com/7561060/ | 19:53 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: might be indeed something going wrong here: can't access /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 19:54 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: but not sure why it moves and regenerates | 19:54 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: yes i dont know. i want to just maybe make xorg read only.. | 19:55 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: maybe try a driver switch at your additional drivers list | 19:56 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: and see what it does, just to test | 19:56 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: how do i do that? | 19:57 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: software sources/last tab additional drivers | 19:57 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: then enable another grafix driver (if available) | 19:57 |
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: how do u do it from cmd line? no gui. | 19:57 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: oh my bad | 19:57 |
| phi0x | lol | 19:58 |
| Z3_ | Hi, where can I get an updated list of dell, alienware and hp laptops whose hardware is fully supported by Ubuntu? | 19:58 |
| bekks | !hcl | Z3_ | 19:58 |
| ubottu | Z3_: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 19:58 |
| bekks | Z3_: And the current hardware (besides webcams possibly, finger print sensors, and unneeded stuff like that) is supported nowadays. | 19:59 |
| Z3_ | bekks that worries me more is LAN, Wi-Fi and Nvidia video card | 19:59 |
| bekks | Z3_: that will work, but possibly you will get a nvidia optimus chipset. | 20:00 |
| keevitaja | how hard it is to swap unity with another desktop environment? | 20:01 |
| bekks | keevitaja: One command only :) | 20:02 |
| Z3_ | bekks so, if I get any laptop with intel hd graphics (hp,asus,dell,etc) I can be sure the essential hardware (audio/video,lan, and wifi) will work? | 20:02 |
| keevitaja | bekks: lol, how many options do i have? | 20:03 |
| lotuspsychje | phi0x: out of ideas here :p | 20:03 |
| phi0x | lol yes me too | 20:03 |
| keevitaja | i've been using linux for couple of month now and i think unity is nothing outstanding | 20:03 |
| phi0x | not sure why it rebuilds config | 20:04 |
| === InFierno is now known as elfuego | ||
| phi0x | lotuspsychje: is it amdcnofig that is rebuilding or xorg or something else? what is gpu-monitor.log a part of? | 20:04 |
| bekks | keevitaja: quite a couple. Unity, KDE, XFCE, LXDE... | 20:04 |
| keevitaja | gnome as well? | 20:05 |
| bekks | keevitaja: Never wanted to use Gnome, sorry :) | 20:05 |
| keevitaja | have you used xfce? | 20:06 |
| robotti^ | I love Unity. My first love was Windowmaker | 20:06 |
| robotti^ | but it feels little bit dead nowadays | 20:06 |

| bekks | asarch: you dont mount LVM partitions, you mount filesystems on LVM volumes. | 20:25 |
| LinxCat | i think that is the one that is already installed with lubuntu. if i go to my software & updates --> additional drivers, i see the broadcom adapter there which says "this device is not working". under it has an option to "use broadcom 802.11 linux STA wireless driver source from bcmwl-kernel-source" | 20:25 |

| Bashing-om | phi0x: Think'n .. what returns from terminal command -> dpkg -l fglrx-modaliases <- . Are you installing the drivers from AMD's web site or from "Additional Drivers" utility ? | 21:34 |
| nimbiotics | bekks: SORRY, for local to server did not work | 21:34 |
| bekks | nimbiotics: is rsync installed on the server? | 21:34 |
| phi0x | Bashing-om: i installed the drivers from downloading the linux 64 bit beta drivers on amd site yes. | 21:35 |

| bekks | nimbiotics: is it installed locally, too? | 21:36 |
| nimbiotics | bekks: yes | 21:37 |
| bekks | nimbiotics: and whats the rsync command you are using and whats the error message you get? | 21:37 |
| nimbiotics | bekks: now ... do I have to run rsync at server in order to update from local to server? | 21:37 |
| munderwo | nimbiotics: first step to check is that you can ssh into the remote from the local with the same credentials. Sounds like a network error/ ssh refusing you on the remote end | 21:37 |
| nimbiotics | bekks: gimme a sec | 21:37 |
| Bashing-om | phi0x: "Is fglrx enabled? no" a similar. Looks like 'fglrx' is not installed. | 21:37 |

| Jordan_U | Snowleaksange: There is no OS that you can continue using new software on without eventually updating the core components of the OS. There are GNU/Linux distros that upgrade thigs gradually as individual pieces make new releases, but I have a feeling you wouldn't particularly like that either. (If you left it for a long time without updating you'd still have a large upgrade of many components to do at once, but this large upgrade ... | 22:56 |
| Jordan_U | ... would be less well tested than if there were fixed releases). | 22:56 |

| Jordan_U | mojtaba: Please pastebin the output of "sudo blkid". This command will list information about your filesystems, including their UUID. You can run "man blkid" to get more information about blkid. | 23:10 |
| Guest4371 | Is there a way I can see the firmware of my SSD ? | 23:10 |
| Jordan_U | Guest4371: What do you mean by "see the firmware"? | 23:11 |
| Guest4371 | Firmware version | 23:11 |
| mojtaba | Jordan_U: http://paste.debian.net/102750/ | 23:11 |
| Bashing-om | mojtaba: Let's see what is: Terminal command -> sudo fdisk -lu | pastebinit <- . theis is your hard disk info. | 23:11 |
| MonkeyDust | Snowleaksange do som reading too http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 23:11 |
| MonkeyDust | some* | 23:11 |
| phi0x | Bashing-om: yes i think because i didnt do the installing of the .deb fglrx files after the amd driver | 23:14 |
| ServerSage | Guest4371: hdparm -I /dev/sdX where X is whatever drive you wanna see the firmware version on. | 23:14 |
| Guest4371 | ServerSage: Thanks! | 23:17 |
| Bashing-om | phi0x: OK, after the (RE-)install of the catalyst driver, what is not working now ? | 23:17 |
| daninoz | hi, I installed firefox through wine, after that I uninstalled wine, but now firefox keeps appearing on the menu, how can I remove it? | 23:17 |
| phi0x | Bashing-om: well fglrxinfo did not work. blank screen output from it, just hangs. then i went and installed those amd fglrx*.deb files and now amdconfig command does not work again. | 23:19 |
| Guest4371 | If I use ext4 filesystem for a SSD do I have to manually enable trim support? | 23:19 |
| === stephen is now known as Guest95214 | ||
| deans | I am having some trouble with the "tr" command. When I use cat file | tr -d '\n' the result is that all lines are removed | 23:21 |
| Guest95214 | Hello | 23:21 |
| deans | I expect only the new-line characters removed ... what am I doing wrong? | 23:22 |
| Guest95214 | Again Hello | 23:23 |
| mojtaba | Bashing-om: Jordan_U: Is it ok? | 23:24 |
| deans | Guest95214: I think we all just come here and say something ... 100+ people in the room but no one responds ... then we leave | 23:24 |
| RoyK | hi. how can I change to encrypted home? | 23:25 |
| phi0x | Bashing-om: now the /usr/share/ati folder is nearly empty. the installation of fglrx *.deb files wiped it out | 23:25 |
| phi0x | Bashing-om: yet ubuntu site says to do the install of fglrx *.deb files after doing the .run file. | 23:26 |
| deans | RoyK: I will give you a bad answer until someone gives you a good one | 23:26 |
| deans | RoyK: create some encrypted partition and mount it to your /home/royk directory every time you boot | 23:27 |
| Guest95214 | I know what you mean Deans | 23:28 |
| Guest95214 | everybody must be sleeping | 23:28 |
| deans | Guest95214: At least one of them is dead. Do you have a specific question? | 23:29 |
| Guest95214 | no | 23:29 |
| Guest95214 | lol | 23:29 |
| Guest95214 | I am just on here to check this program out | 23:30 |
| deans | Guest95214: then you can help with mine ... why does tr -d '\n' remove more than just new-line characters? | 23:30 |
| RoyK | deans: heh - doesn't make sense | 23:31 |
| Bashing-om | phi0x: Beats me, - with six cards -maybe you have to go into xorg.conf and set up which card is the primary related to the card that is driving the monitor ?? // did you run -> sudo amdconfig --initial <- ? and that commnad may not apply here with 14.04 (??). | 23:31 |
| test123123 | hello, I'm trying to mass rename files and was wondering if anyone might be able to assist me? Am wanting to do something like mv "Stargate Atlantis Season 01 Episode*.avi" "Stargate Atlantis S01E*.avi" | 23:32 |
| humbag | deans: cat file | tr -d "\n" | 23:32 |
| deans | royk: cat file | tr -d '\n' | wc -l yields 0 when the file has lots of text in it | 23:32 |
| phi0x | Bashing-om:yes ran the --adapters=all --initial | 23:32 |
| deans | humbag: still 0 characters in output | 23:33 |
| test123123 | have been attempting to read the documentation for rename but I don't understand all the ’s/\. stuff | 23:33 |
| RoyK | deans: are you full of midden or is just the impression? | 23:34 |
| jackarius86 | hello, i have installed mini ubuntu (command line only) and am trying to figure out how to get fluxbox up and running, i have done sudo apt-get install fluxbox xserver-xorg | 23:34 |
| humbag | ... wc -c | 23:34 |
| jackarius86 | what else do i need to do? | 23:34 |
| test123123 | alright, perhaps there maybe an app that can do bulk renames instead of using command? | 23:34 |
| Zooklubba | Ubuntu 14.04 LTS server. invoke-rc.d: initscript apparmor, action "reload" failed.when I try to install apparmor | 23:35 |
| Zooklubba | 2.8.95~2430-0ubuntu5 | 23:35 |
| humbag | test123123: rename works quite well, give us an example | 23:37 |
| jackarius86 | hello, i have installed mini ubuntu (command line only) and am trying to figure out how to get fluxbox up and running, i have done sudo apt-get install fluxbox xserver-xorg | 23:37 |
| jackarius86 | what else do i need to do? | 23:37 |
| Bashing-om | mojtaba: Can not say " Bashing-om: Jordan_U: Is it ok?" untill I see what we are working with, I have no idea: Terminal command -> sudo fdisk -lu | pastebinit <- so we know what we are working with. | 23:37 |
| deans | humbag: -c yields 13732 which was a surprise since I expect -l to yield 1 if -c yields anything | 23:37 |
| humbag | you took out all the newlines deans | 23:37 |
| deans | humbag: but without them I still expect 1 line, no? | 23:38 |
| test123123 | humbug: i'm wanting to rename some mv "Stargate Atlantis Season 01 Episode*.avi" "Stargate Atlantis S01E*.avi" but * does not function in this way | 23:38 |
| mojtaba | Bashing-om: http://paste.debian.net/102752/ | 23:38 |
| test123123 | need them to say S01E* | 23:38 |
| deans | RoyK: my question is quite serious | 23:39 |
| phi0x | Bashing-om: i am going to take a little break lol too many hours on this again today -_- | 23:39 |
| test123123 | example Stargate Atlantis Season 01 Episode 04 - Thirty Eight Minutes.avi needs to be Stargate Atlantis S01E04 - Thirty Eight Minutes.avi | 23:39 |
| deans | humbag: also when the output is allowed to stream to the console there is nothing | 23:40 |
| test123123 | i usually just rename with the mv command but it doesn't seem to work with multiple files | 23:40 |
| Bashing-om | mojtaba: look'n at 102752 . | 23:40 |
| humbag | so like swap the "Season 01 Episode " to "S01E" ? | 23:41 |
| Zooklubba | https://gist.github.com/davols/5d44cd0e5487d210c35a problems with apparmor install. 14.04 LTS server :/ | 23:41 |
| Zooklubba | a TL;DR being invoke-rc.d: initscript apparmor, action "reload" failed. | 23:41 |
| deans | humbag: so even if wc doesn't count output without a newline as 1 line it still doesn't answer my question as to why there is no output when it is sent directly to the console? | 23:42 |
| humbag | test123123: yes rename is ideal for this or you could put mv in a for loop | 23:43 |
| Jordan_U | test123123: 's/Season /S/' means replace "Season " with "S". Similarly you can then use 's/Episode /E/' . | 23:45 |
| test123123 | is that used with mv? | 23:46 |
| test123123 | or rename? i've been trying to read the rename documentation but have never been able to understand anything similar to reg exp | 23:46 |
| humbag | rename was kind of my entry into regex, sed etc. just make a copy of your directory before you change things, the first couple of times | 23:47 |
| Bashing-om | mojtaba: I see no reason that 'sda1' does not mount. show me once more the fstab line that you are currently using to automount 'sda1', please. | 23:49 |
| thecha | i thik i might have erased the content of my locale.gen? | 23:49 |
| thecha | how od i fix this? | 23:49 |
| thecha | i am on a ubuntu | 23:49 |
| humbag | test, so perhaps?: rename 's/Season /S/' Stargate*.avi && rename 's/Episode /E/' Stargate*.avi | 23:51 |
| mojtaba | Bashing-om: UUID=2ceb4a82-1959-42a2-94b8-b7364328d7fa /media/cooldisk ext4 rw,defaults 0 0 | 23:52 |
| Jordan_U | mojtaba: Please pastebin the output, if any, of "sudo mount /media/cooldisk/". I assure you that it's a safe command to run, but if you're worried you can run "man mount" to confirm what it does, or ask others in the channel to confirm that it's safe. | 23:57 |
| Bashing-om | mojtaba: That should mount ! .. ok -> sudo blkid | pastebinit -> , ls -la /media | pastebinit <- see if I can spot an error. | 23:58 |
