luckybunnynow I'm curious, becauseI found out it wasn't exactly ok without gfx drivers, and because I still get that brief flash of a CLI login before blackscreen, I'm really curious what the fix was00:00
luckybunnysomething about VGA modes00:01
SenorSenpaihey guys how can I make my home/documents home/pictures etc become home/dropbox/documents etc?00:02
luckybunnybasically, ubuntu boots, pretty much completely. However, where it would normally go to lightdm or a CLI login, it usually briefly flashes up a CLI login before blackscreening00:02
luckybunnyand trying ctrl-alt-f1/2/3/etc does nothing00:03
wilee-nileeSenorSenpai, Make a folder in the dropbox folder and point what you want when adding to it.00:03
luckybunnyI have to hit the power button before anything else will appear.. the shutdown sequence scripts00:03
wilee-nileeadding to thiose folders00:04
TJ-luckybunny: That sounds like a kernel mode-setting driver is taking over the consoles00:04
SenorSenpaican you define better "point what you want when adding to it" wilee-nilee?00:04
luckybunnyI'm booting with nomodeset00:04
wilee-nileeSenorSenpai, Sure if you have a save of a picture for example make sure it is going to the folder in dropbox.00:05
SenorSenpaiwell that would be great but I was looking for better integration00:05
luckybunnybut yeah... I'm leaning in the same direction, that something pretty basic is either starting and not working, or failing to start00:05
TJ-luckybunny: if a proprietary driver is still in-place, it might not honour the nomodeset parameter.00:05
SenorSenpailike if I opened /home/pictures it shows my files from dropbox's dropbox/photos00:05
wilee-nileeSenorSenpai, I'm not sure you can do else really, dropbox is a 3rd party so integration would be in the configs or a syslink maybe.00:06
SenorSenpai^ is what i want00:06
SenorSenpaii see00:06
wilee-nileeSenorSenpai, Those extra clicks wearing you fingers out. ;)00:06
wilee-nileeyour*00:06
robotdevilwould someone be able to assist me for a moment, it requires someone that has libdvdcss and vlc installed, need them to just test for two minutes if vlc will backup a dvd, http://www.wikihow.com/Rip-DVDs-with-VLC scroll down to method two, it will start the file soon and you can check it in the directory you select00:06
robotdevilits crashes here steady00:07
wilee-nileeSenorSenpai, I meant symlink, my mistake. ;) Just a guess though.00:09
SenorSenpaisymlink might do it actually00:11

CorvetteI'm having an issue with Skype in 14.04. Everything works but the chat window, which does not appear no matter what. I cannot look at what people are sending me or sending me back via the chat window. I can only do video calls.00:22
wilee-nileerobotdevil, Cool, however there are a number of rippers, one installed already brasero00:22
wilee-nileeCorvette, This a ubuntu repos install of skype?00:24
Corvettewilee-nilee no it isn't I suppose I should install that one00:24
Corvetteit's the official one00:24
wilee-nilee!skype | Corvette just info00:24

Corvettewilee-nilee would you suggest I apt-get purge skype and then reinstall from the software center00:25

MertenNorhm.. can anyone help ? xD00:25
wilee-nileeCorvette, I would purge it yes.00:25

Corvettelol wilee-nilee00:27
Corvetteskype is not in the repos00:27
wilee-nileeCorvette, You need the canonical partners repo olpen.00:27

wilee-nileeCorvette, Go to software and update 2nd tab and make sure it's ticked, run an update then install.00:28
Neo31hellopat, i have a blank screen when logging into unity. i can see only the background wallpaper. Any help please?00:28
wilee-nileeNeo31, Any info leading to this E.g fresh install, drivers added...etc.00:29
cristobalguys you can use webrtc just give the link to the person intended to talk with faster and more secure  one sample you can use is this: https://apprtc.appspot.com00:29

wilee-nileeNeo31, Cool, just getting your info on the channel, not an area I can really help with.00:31
Corvettelol I think it's kinda funny how canonical calls microsoft 'partners'00:32
cristoballol00:32
Neo31thanks anyway wilee-nilee I hope someone could help. it worked perfectly on 13.04 before i'm not sure what is the problem with 14.0400:33
wilee-nileeCorvette, At one time MS was one of the largest contributers to the linux kernels00:33
CorvetteReally? Did they intend to make windows unix based?00:33
wilee-nileeNeo31, I think so, for this area it is pretty straight forward, I just have always had intel hardware.00:34
Neo31what is the intel driver to install ?00:34
wilee-nileeCorvette, No, it was just part of the deal I guess I don't know the exact reasons.00:34
Neo31i can get rid of the nvidia driver for now wilee-nilee00:34
Corvettewilee-nilee when I installed from the terminal after having enabled the right ppa it opened skype immediately (like it hadn't ever closed) I was already signed in, and I'm having the same problem00:34
cristobalwilee-nilee, no just they want their programs to run on linux servers00:34
wilee-nileeCorvette, Skype idles if not shut down I believe.00:35
Corvettewilee-nilee but I purged it00:35
wilee-nileeCorvette, if idling a purge does not shut down the running of it, kill it than open it.00:36
wilee-nileeif running , not running of*00:36
wilee-nileeCorvette, YOU can remove your whole desktop and it will run till you reboot or logout.00:37
energizerHi! After upgrading to 14.04, my computer often can't connect to wifi even though it sees the network. Thoughts?00:37
robotdevilOK SO... if using vlc to backup a dvd you must have the cache high (im using 5000) (in more options) and disable dvd menus <---------------grrr00:38
robotdevilalways a 600KB file till disabled00:38
wilee-nileeenergizer, Yes, run lspci in the terminal find the wifi info and tell the channel what it is.00:38
Corvettewilee-nilee I did a killall skype, then purged it again, then reinstalled, then started it and I'm still logged in... why does it remember my user info00:38
wilee-nileeCorvette, Probably a skype config file in homes .config00:39
Corvettewilee-nilee should I delete that00:39
wilee-nileeCorvette, I would.00:39
Corvettebecause I'm still having the issue00:39
energizerwilee-nilee: it's a usb adapter, so i ran lsusb, and got Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0bda:8178 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8192CU 802.11n WLAN Adapter00:40
wilee-nileeCorvette, I Never use skype so for me it is just a google search exercise beyond this, others may be better help.00:40
wilee-nileeenergizer, mmmm realtek in the words of David Letterman "I would not give it to a monkey on a rock" Can't help you myself, but important info for the channel to help.00:41
energizerwilee-nilee: oddly enough, i switched to the realtek usb adapter after recurrent problems with pci adapters. i could plug one of those in instead if you'd be able to give more info?00:42
wilee-nileeenergizer, Every wifi stick I have tried plugged and worked, I would not mess with any other, they are cheap and lots on amazon confirming linux/ubuntu use.00:43
wilee-nileeenergizer, In my mind this is an important issue that should just work, or it is a waste of time, unless that is all you can afford in the end.00:45

wilee-nileeCorvette, This a s a guess seems more like a graphic issue, Try to see if it run in the guest, as a comparison, maybe even install lubuntu, and copy paste the lubuntu packages to a gedit, so you can remove if wanted.01:13

e^/whois e^01:16
wilee-nileeCorvette, The channels has basic parameters, and using out of release packages is not one of them.01:16
CorvetteSo wilee-nilee you would just suggest I use gnome shell and get over it?01:16
wilee-nileeCorvette, Not exactly, I can't every remember saying get over it on the channel, just muttering it to my cat. ;)01:17
wilee-nileeCorvette, I would say patience is the key is all.01:18
wilee-nileeCorvette, And not assuming it is the unity desktop itself but a part of it, or the underlying base.01:18
Corvettewilee-nilee I would not have ever presumed you'd have told me to get over it, I was asking if you would indeed suggest I do01:19
wilee-nileeCorvette, Heh, not really, it can probably be resolved, many use skype in unity, and I doubt your hardware is so exotic or old it is not possible.01:20

wilee-nileeSenorSenpai, Was this a config modification, used to be you had to do it this way?02:17

SenorSenpaii used super + alt + right click on the top bar02:19
DanielConvissori've been using ubuntu for several years.  done several 14.04 beta installs.  downloaded the latest installer from ubuntu.com (ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso) a few minutes ago.  usually, the install routine gives a few options: install on the whole disk, (overwrite existing installation if one exists), something else.  but this installer goes direclty to manual partitioning.02:19
SenorSenpaiclicked properties02:19
SenorSenpaiticked auto hide, and it hid itself02:19
SenorSenpaibuilt into the panel02:20
dw1SenorSenpai: scroll down on that last thread 2 more suggestions02:20
SenorSenpaiok02:20
wilee-nileeDanielConvissor, run in the terminal sudo parted -l and pastebin it02:20
dw1SenorSenpai: if youre in compiz mode its probably taking over the screen edge02:20
SenorSenpaiohhh02:20
dw1SenorSenpai: thats why that suggestion to enlarge the panel to 5px worked for people02:21
dw1SenorSenpai: to enlarge the hidden panel02:21

cfhowlettDanielConvissor you won't have uefi but you could have GPT - when I hackintoshed my 2009 Dell, that's the default.  later attempts to install ubuntu ran into the GPT issue you're showing02:44

cjw907@flay, if you edit your .bashrc or .bash_aliases file, you could permanently create that alias, or you could just use the command in the terminal and have the alias only for the current session. Either way, the command you want to use is -- alias alias_name='~/Desktop/file_name'02:51

wilee-nileekirankumar, I'm not sure what "input not support" this means exactly, but I'm concerned that windows was not overwritten when you installed ubuntu.04:27

wilee-nileekirankumar,  I suspec it is just a resolution problem at the boot menu window.04:33
kirankumaryes sir ecaxt04:33
kirankumar@wilee-nilee   sir can we can change this resolution problem?04:34

farsonicno idea who teh vendor is for this thing05:48
lacrymologyresetting to older kernel did not help. There is another MUCH older kernel installed, but that'd be sort of silly05:49

ethermonkright but you have to understand and comprehend the words06:13
holsteinlacrymology: sure.. good luck..06:13
ethermonkwhich i dont, and most people i have seen you give that advice to do not understand either06:13
ethermonkit seems so simple, even when reading it, but it doesnt work06:13
holsteinethermonk: works as advertised for me.. if you have an error, let a volunteer here know06:14
ethermonki have given exact PPAs and you wont give me a working command to at least understand the syntax that you have so laxly described06:14
lacrymologyholstein: just a note, it is impossible to work with just supported packages. Sorry, I understand there's no support, but it *is*. Stok node.js version is old, python version was outdated for *years* psql version was old too, just to name my most basic toolbox06:14
holsteinethermonk: thats all there is to it.. that is the syntax above, friend06:15
lacrymologygit was outdated as well, last time I checked06:15

Jordan_Ulacrymology: ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/06:15
holsteinlacrymology: sure.. but, we dont support ppa's here, and cant.. they can break the system, or go out dated.. and cause the breakage you see06:16
ethermonkholstein, can you PLEASE (i am really begging) the EXACT verbatim command to remove http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/xorg-edgers so that i can at least stop complaining to you about this?06:16
Jordan_Ulacrymology: Please also pastebin the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the output of "dmesg".06:16

SachiruFor instance if I set a group to have read access to a file via setfacl, if I share the file over samba can group members see the shared file?06:20
lacrymologyJordan_U: I can't pastebin, I don't have a desktop environment. Well, there's a desktop environment, but no window manager, so pretty useless. And also I've killed and rerun X several time this session, but if I end up rebooting, I'll do that06:23

sudormrfbekks: I believe you that it isn’t a bind issue, but I would like to know why.06:43
bekkssudormrf: It is a reason. If you cant ping 8.8.8.8 it isnt a bind issue because bind isnt even involved.06:43

bekksethermonk: whats that "most common enmbedded video processors in business most common enmbedded video processors in business" actually? Which application?07:09
cfhowlettethermonk THIS ^^^07:09
bekksrobotdevil: a human eye can just resolve about one million colors, so even 24bit cant be seen by a human eye :)07:09
ethermonkcfhowlett, you are more qualified to understand that the intel ICH9 chipset is still in use on a vast number of business machines07:10
helmut_hi07:10
PxlVisionthose underwater creatures have better sensors than us :(07:10
bekksethermonk: ICH9 is not a graphics chipset at all. So your complaint is invalid.07:10
ethermonkich9 was commonly paired with the g31/g3307:10
cfhowlettethermonk "business machines"  ... I'd say such are not the preferred machine in ANY graphics studio.07:11
ethermonkand GMA310007:11
bekksethermonk: which is a wrong assumption. ICH9 is the successor of PIIX.07:11

Oogwill running aptitude upgrade fix the newest ssl issue?07:11
cfhowlettOog sudo apt-get dist-upgrade07:11
Oogwhat does that do vs aptitude upgrade07:12
bekksethermonk: And the Intel GMA chipsets were used by several chipset manufacturers and were added to the mainboards, by per design, the ICH9 is not a graphics chipset. As you said yourself, the Intel GMA is.07:12
ethermonkany one who has spent a lot of time working with business systems w/ embedded graphics should be familiar with the g31/g33 / GMA3100. these are common chipsets in the workplace07:12

Oogi dont know what all that will have in it07:12
ethermonkphp is common in webservers and the mcrypt is common to php installations07:12
bekksethermonk: And it is wrong that those chipsets are limited to 1024x768, as well.07:13
ethermonkyou ppl are being more rediculous than me. this is not good.07:13

slax0rwould it help with the speed if I somehow disabled compiz? is this doable in ubuntu?08:34
wilee-nileeslax0r, Unity is a plugin in compiz, no compiz no unity08:35
slax0rthat I know, I supose ubuntu doesn't come preinstalled with any other DE right?08:35

I am running 13.04 which I think is no longer supported? triggered the update process. packages downloaded successfully and installed successfully then I rebooted my computer. all well. then at the login screen there was a power cut. now ubuntu loads fine but there my primary monitor is black with a faint blue rectangle at the top. secondary is fine. when I type my password it log10:18
daniel311one23 - sorry for the stupid question but Have you tried looking for apps to do this in the app store? there should be plenty there, along with install instructions.10:19

vorburgerhello - what's the best / correct IRC channel to get help with an UEFI dual boot mess?10:37
daniel311reaper are you all on DHCP? you can probably solve this problem with using permanent IP address allocations from your router.10:37
reaperi already thought of that step and i have that already configured in the router10:38

daniel311reaper are your machines obeying10:38
daniel311?10:38
luckybunnyI have a GUI.... but no actual environment10:38

daniel311ifconfig is the easiest if you're happy using terminal. other wise click on the network icon thingy10:39
dohzerit's beer'o'clock!10:39
daniel311vorburger here I guess? talk about your problem. someone might be able to help.10:40
reaperdaniel311 yes its verified that they ARE using the predefined ip config in the router10:41
daniel311reaper - both of them? could it be that the windows machine (which is complaining) simply hadn't had time for the permanent assignment to take effect? iirc that wouldnt take effect until the next time the DHCP lease comes up for re-assignment…10:42
daniel311*renewal, sorry10:42
reaperdaniel311 this event/issue has been ongoing for over 4 or 5 days10:42

daniel311reaper: so if I understand correctly you've told your router tha tthe MAC address used by your windows machien should get such an such an IP - say 192.168.1.10 and your ubuntu machine should get say 192.168.1.11. and you've verified that your windows machine gets e.g. 192.168.1.10 and your linux machine gets e.g. 192.168.1.11. Yet your windows machine complains that it cant register its network name with IP address 192.168.1.11????10:45
grylal: hi.10:46
reaperdaniel311 here is the verbatum error in windows log10:46

reaperdaniel311 The name "WORKGROUP      :1d" could not be registered on the interface with IP address 10.0.0.2. The computer with the IP address 10.0.0.8 did not allow the name to be claimed by this computer.10:46

vorburgerI'm doing a fresh 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) install on a new laptop that had Win 8 with UEFI on GPT pre-installed, and I'd like to dual boot. Because I want to use encryption, I did Installation type Something else, created the crypt container etc. and a /boot partition. I've put grub 2 into my /boot. Now it keeps booting Windows, with no option for Linux, which is probably normal? Some posts suggest the use of some Windows tool called Eas10:47
vorburgeryBCD, which I've tried and gotten it to add a Linux menu entry to the UEFI menu, but selecting that leads to some AutoNeoGrub0.mbr 0xc000000f.. :( How do you do such a set-up correct? I don't really care about EasyBCD obviously, and other solution that works (and allows me to dual boot into the existing Windows 8 UEFI..) would be MUCH APPRECIATED!  I could post Linux Boot Repair tool info, if that helps to proceed?10:47
reaperdaniel311 *.2 is the windows pc and *.8 is the linux10:47
bekksreaper: which ip does your ubuntu have?10:47
daniel311reaper: can you just confirm to me that your router is assigning 10.0.0.2 to windows machine's MAC address and 10.0.0.8 to your linux machine's mac address?10:47
reaperdaniel311 yes10:47

daniel311yes, but its the windows machien which is the one we care most about since its the one thats complaining. ipconfig on windows.10:48
reaperits the same ip10:48
reaper*.210:49
daniel311try changing your windows machine's network name - right-click my computer, properties, go from there.10:49
reaperso take it onto a different workgroup if im understanding correctly10:50
bekksreaper: are the names identical on windows and linux?10:50
reaperbekks No10:50
reaperbekks one is named reaper the other mobile10:50
daniel311no, I wouldnt nessesarily suggest going that far. you could if you think it would help but you might hve problems with file sharing. just change the computer's network name for now. e.g. your linux machine is named reaper (since your prompt is reaper@reaper). my windows machine is named durandal after an AI in a computer game. many peoples windows machines are named e.g. DanielPC or something. thats what you want to change since its part of your error.10:51
daniel311if it still doesnt help then yes change the workgroup too. its the same tab in windows system properties iirc, unless theyve changed it.10:52
reaperits all the same area10:52
daniel311yes it is10:52
daniel311if that still doesnt work, change your linux machine's IP address and DHCP lease settings on the router. see if the windows machine follows your linux machine's address with the error. like that annoying kid at school who always wants to sit in your seat on the bus just to be annoying. "but I want THAT ONE!"10:54
daniel311*change to something random I should say, like 10.0.0.9910:54
reaperok 1 sec going to reboot the windows pc and see if it helps10:54
bekksipconfig /release /all; ipconfig /renew; <- in windows.10:54
daniel311and then wait an age because apparently renewing an IP address is a Very Hard Task in windows.. :-(10:55
reaperi know all that bekks i changed the workgroup domain as well10:55
bekksIf you changed the workgroup as wll, you will have no change to access another netbios workgroup.10:57
reaperbekks personally that doesnt matter since the ubuntu install is being used as a shell box for a standalone teamspeak voice server ONLY11:00
bekksreaper: Personally, it DOES matter, since you need to be in the same netbios workgroup for accessing a share.11:02

reaperdaniel311 The name "WORKGROUP      :1d" could not be registered on the interface with IP address 10.0.0.2. The computer with the IP address 10.0.0.8 did not allow the name to be claimed by this computer.11:08
bekksreaper: i did. but I cant figure out a big picture yet.11:08
reapersorry repost with wrong name11:08
reaperwhen that is happening i am getting errors on the windows that causes my net to stop and restart every 8 hours for 5-10 seconds11:09
daniel311reaper - you've changed windows' network name, right? and workgroup, right? (so its not WORKGROUP). and you've changed ubuntu's ip permanent ip address to somehting new, and random, on the router and verified that the change has taken effect via ifconfig?11:09
reaperwhen i am gaming on the windows pc its quite annoying11:09
bekksso your windows is misconfigured.11:09
reaperno my windows is fine11:10
reaperits been fine for over 3 years11:10
bekksyou just stated it isnt.11:10
reaperlinux is the issue11:10
bekksit isnt.11:10
daniel311now now, children. reaper, have you taken those steps I mentioned? :-)11:10
reaperthis all started when the shell was brought online11:10
bekksthe error clearly states that linux is inhibiting your wrong windows configuration.11:10
reaperand daniel all but changing the server ip11:10
reaperbekks u clearly are not understanding11:11
daniel311reaper: do that now. :-)11:11
reaperok daniel31111:11
daniel311dont argue with bekks. just go and change the IP address. I'll wait. :-)11:11
bekksreaper: if you think so. good luck.11:11

mexi_d3I think reaper's problem is that his dhcp server is seeing the same mac address twice, doesn't understand that someone might be dual booting, and falling over. He could probably fix it with a static IP.11:33
histoThat's interesting we can generate errors on windows boxes now.11:33
mexi_d3Quite a few cheap routers used to do that: In the UK, BT (the largest ISP) gave out routers that did that for a while11:34

sergey_I just installed Ubuntu server 14.04 32bit. My system freezes while shutting down or reboot. Last message on screen: "Stopping System V runlevel compatibility". How to fix it?11:41
daniel311reaper didnt you just come back from changing th elinux machine away from 10.0.0.8? to something new and random to see if the windows error followed it?11:41
reaperdaniel311 i was posting the original error11:42
reaperand now its a waiting game to see if i get d/c or not in 8 hours11:42
mexi_d3reaper: You don't actally need the network browser service on windows network. Make network mapping for your drives with 'net use'. But your problem is a windows networking misconfiguration and not really relevant here.11:43
reapermexi_d3 i love how everyone says its a windows misconfigure yet its worked just fine for 3 years. it just started as soon as i made this particular linux box11:44

reaperwhos dual booting?11:45
historeaper: these are two different boxes?11:45
ikoniamy apologis ,I've missunderstood, I thought you meant you where dual booting11:45
reapermexi_d3 becuase its been on multiple networks that i have made with ubuntu with no issues11:46
mexi_d3ikonia: I thought that too, which would be an easy fix, but he isn't :-)11:46
reaperhisto yes 2 diff computers11:46
ikoniathe descrpition of the problem/setup is not complete enough to actually work through the problem11:46
mexi_d3reaper: Why not just disable being master browser on samba?11:47
reapermexi how do i do that11:47
ikoniathe key there is "master" you can't have 2 master browser11:47
reaperwindows by default is set to act as one and is dumb11:47
mexi_d3reaper: It's a setting in the samba conf. It's probabyl "domain master browser = no" but you'd need to look it up11:48

lamrzevon, the trash is much smaller..13:21

lamrzOerHeks, it says also that 58% and 68% are used (I have the problem with two partitions)13:24
lamrzbut the folder is empty, trash is only 3GB..13:25
lamrzI mean both partitions are empty13:25
OerHekslamrz, so what is the issue, you formatted/partitioned a disk, and now missing 99 gb?13:26
varunendralamrz, just give us pastebin link of 'df -h'13:27

varunendra:)13:33
varunendralamrz, let them stop, the largest files/directory would be listed at the bottom.13:33
lamrzvarunendra, if you mean at the end of the output, it is not so, they are arbitrarily listed, not in ascending or descending order of size13:34
lamrzvarunendra, but I'm trying using | less13:35
varunendralamrz, it means you didn't pipe the output to 'sort'. The full command was - "du -h | sort -h"13:35
lamrzah ok13:35
lamrzsorry13:35
lamrzvarunendra, the largest file is 458MB, and there are only a handful of MB-size files..13:36
lamrzvarunendra, I dont know how it might have affected, but this happened after I deleted dd image files from these partitions13:37

ubuntuboxoh yes a better question may be, is anything related to "qemu" is preinstalled with ubuntu?14:13
dw1ubuntubox: its not installed by default so shouldnt touch anything too important i dont think14:13
varunendralamrz, or you can run the gui program "Disk Usage Analyzer" (command - sudo baobab) to do that via GUI14:13

OerHekslamrz, an hdd shows 'free space', i guess your hdd has got a buffer of 8 gb14:15

wolsikonia: it will. there are many pages which are allocated, loaded but then never ever touched again. you can swap out those and use the memory for better purposes15:03
tbtptbIn some cases, I won't be able to use partitioning15:03

AsterisksI know right, it's insane15:08
AsterisksI've been planning an ubuntu LTSP cluster for a local grade school, going to present it on tuesday15:08
edge226I am having an issue mounting a .img file in ubuntu. It seems to get pissed @ /dev/loop115:08
edge226Asterisks: LTSP?15:09
AsterisksLinux Terminal Server Project15:09
mcnesiumcan i make an ext4 partition on the new drive that will be mounted to a raid1, where the corresponding partition on the old drive is ext3?15:10
edge226Asterisks: is there a difference between a LTSP and just running servers?15:10
Asterisksbasically you can boot a computer off the network with a minimal OS (think a really thinned down ubuntu liveCD) and the programs run on the LTSP application servers15:10
Asterisksall the hardware the school currently has is old (we're talking 8+ years old still running windows XP)15:10
Asterisksand can't run a full ubuntu by itself, and either way installing ubuntu 100 times isn't exactly expedient15:10
holsteinAsterisks: you can image as you please15:11
OerHeksAsterisks, sounds like you need Edubuntu15:11
Asterisksprobably will install the edubuntu packages15:11
cym2hi :-)15:11
Asterisksall edubuntu is is some theming and a couple software packages, i cal install it on normal ubuntu15:11
Asteriskssudo apt-get install ubuntu-edu-primary15:12
holsteini found it was too much of a change from the XP work flow.. the school i was working with didnt even understand a networks share, and how to leave the power on to a server.. so i did seperate machines15:12
tbtptbI thought XP days had networking too.  I remember FTPing stuff and sharing an internet connection15:13
AsterisksTrue, it will be a change, but at the same time so would windows 7/815:14
edge226Anyone have any idea why I am getting this? http://celps.org/p3un615:14
Asteriskswhich would be the other director15:14
Asterisksdirection*15:14
Asterisksand it would cost 3x as more, if not more than that15:14
daftykinsAsterisks: just reading back on some messages there, that school is in a really bad way =|15:14
AsterisksIt's an illinois school, the budget in IL atm is in the shitter.15:14
john_ramboHow to solve this mail issue ? http://pastebin.com/w5NDYQ5c15:14
AsterisksIt's where I went to grade school, the current computer lab they have was istalled when I was in kindergarten (I'm 17 now) and hasn't been upgraded once15:15
daftykinsjohn_rambo: use the correct binary...15:15
Asterisksdaftykins: pretty much, I'm hoping to bring them at least to a workable level15:15
ikoniajohn_rambo: stop following blindly commands from the internet15:15
holsteinxp is workable.. i find you really need to address major changes in work flow and habits15:16
Asterisksholstein: you forget that windows XP is not longer supported by microsoft, it's a security black hole now15:16
Asterisksno longer*15:16
Asteriskssorry about the typing mistakes, I just woke up :L15:17
holsteinAsterisks: and, please note, im not suggesting its use.. im just stating it *is* workable15:17
john_rambodaftykins: ikonia I am trying to test psad's mail delivery as suggested here http://www.cipherdyne.com/psad/docs/faq.html#sendmail15:17
holsteinAsterisks: they (microsoft) actually *are* providing updates to some who want to pay..15:17
tbtptbedge226: that looks similar to what I've seen when mounting a still-used windows 8 partition.  Can't mount rw.15:17
ikoniajohn_rambo: that guide is nothing to do with yoursetup15:17
edge226tbtptb: its a .img file. Usually you get the error and it mounts RO. All good thats all I need. But it just fails.15:18
holsteinAsterisks: but, i am only wishing you well.. nothing about ubuntu or linux is preventing you and your school from using and benefiting from its use15:18
sydneyXP is unsupported,but 27% of people(something around there) are still using it. :D My mom is using it yet,and it is still going strong.15:18
tbtptbIs the image on such a partition?15:18
jack-weird...should be downloading from archive.ubuntu.org or so, but netsat says likho.canonical.com15:18
jack-and that host/box is crap slow :/15:19
holsteinAsterisks: i found, when i have migrating individuals and schools and companies *before* xp was EOL that trying to give the same experience as the manufacturer did with xp helped15:19
daftykinsjack-: so pick another mirror15:19
varunendrajohn_rambo, the 'mail' program is in /usr/bin directory by the way..15:19
Asterisksholstein: elaborate on the "same experience" comment?15:19
zoltankodalyhi everyone15:19
ikoniajohn_rambo: VERY important, do NOT blindly copy commands from the internet15:19
holsteinAsterisks: sure.. moving schools from xp to ubuntu15:19
edge226tbtptb: I downloaded the image, decompressed it and tried to mount it. It is not already mounted. I am unsure why it is freaking about /dev/loop115:19
ikoniaedge226: it needs a loop back device to mount an image15:20
sydneyzoltankodaly: Hi!!15:20
Z_ikaChanfm15:20
edge226ikonia: meaning?15:20
ikoniaedge226: that's why it's trying to use loop115:20
jack-daftykins, you mean editing sources.list?15:20
zoltankodalyi can't install ubuntu on my pc, i put the image on an usb key with unetbotin, but when i start the install the screen goes black15:20
edge226ikonia: I know why, I dont know why its failing.15:20
zoltankodalyi've got 2 ati radeon r9 280x15:20
holstein!nomodeset | zoltankodaly15:21
ubottuzoltankodaly: 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 parameter15:21
daftykinsjack-: only if your system is pure CLI, there is a mirror testing and picking function in the software sources program i think15:21
ikonia16:19 < edge226> I am unsure why it is freaking about /dev/loop115:21
ikoniaedge226: that susggests you don't know why15:21
holsteinzoltankodaly: i would consider testing the usb stick on other hardware as well... so you know its working or not15:21
zoltankodalyalready used nomodeset15:21
zoltankodalyit's not effective15:21
holsteinzoltankodaly: ok.. then, what is?15:21
jack-ok, i'll check15:21
holstein!md5 | zoltankodaly15:21
ubottuzoltankodaly: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows15:21
Asterisksholstein: what kind of experience is generally given by the manufacturer that you suggest I should try to give.15:21
holsteinzoltankodaly: try and test the stick on a other machine, otherwise, you are assuming its working15:21
zoltankodalyalready checked the hash15:21
edge226ikonia: I know why it needs it, I dont know why its not just mounting. I've never had this issue before. Although usually it is an iso instead of a img.15:21
tbtptbI'm not sure about this, but mount something else as RO /dev/loop1 and that as loop2 or later to see if the issue is actually /dev/loop.15:21
zoltankodalyit seems a problem of my pc15:22
zoltankodalyor at least, of my configuration15:22
ikoniaedge226: so "invalid argument" seems a key bit of information as /dev/loop1 is being passed as an argment....15:22
daftykinsjack-: 14.04 desktop yeah? i can guide you to where it is now as i've booted my VM15:22
ikoniaedge226: "NTFS" suggests it's trying to mount it as NTFS15:22
holsteinAsterisks: when that hardware was purchased, a company such as dell spent lots of resources making sure windows was supported and ran on the hardware they sold them.. i find you have to emulate that process in linux.. not just wiping and dropping off a machine, but testing everything and making sure all is well15:22
edge226ikonia: so what 'should' it be. It is a linux image I would normally write to a USB drive or something.15:23
jack-daftykins, linuxmint17-mate ;) sorry15:23
holsteinAsterisks: also, support.. where do they get it? do they call you? make sure they know where you intend they ask...15:23
daftykinsjack-: ok, you're aware Mint is not supported in here?15:23
daftykins!mint | jack-15:23
ubottujack-: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org15:23
Asterisksholstein: I'll be working with their current hardware, but I'll also be on site and plan on testing thoroughly.15:23
zoltankodalyive got an asus maximus vi extreme mobo, intel cpu, 2 ati r9 280x and 2 hd15:23
zoltankodalymemory is ok15:23
ikoniaedge226: I don't know what that image is, I'd have to research what format its in15:23
zoltankodalyhd are ok15:23
arcskyhello i have here a laptop with ubuntu livecd.. how can i install vlc since apt-cache search vlc gives nothing..15:23
Asterisksholstein: and as far as support, I'll be the one they'd have to call, and I do plan on setting that up15:23
zoltankodaly(tested)15:23
holsteinAsterisks: then, you need to re-consider the install per-machine, unless al the hardware is identical15:24
krauserhello there15:24
jack-bla, sure :) i'm only here because of stuff related to ubuntu15:24
edge226ikonia: it is used on an embedded arm device, I just wanted to grab some files off the ISO to get another partition working.15:24
ikoniaedge226: that tells me nothing about the format, I'd have to look at what format/data storage is being used15:24
Asterisksholstein: the key will be to ensure the image the clients boot includes any drivers they require, which isn't hard15:24
pakairarcsky, couldnt you do sudo apt-get install vlc?15:25
holsteinAsterisks: it actually can be impossible15:25
arcskypakair: nope15:25
holsteinAsterisks: you were not promised linux support for likely any of that hardware.. which can be challenging if soemthing is not supported out of the box well15:25
arcskypakair: i need source list?15:25
holsteinAsterisks: but, regardless, i need to run.. i will PM you my email if you have any questions.. cheers and good luck15:25
daftykinsjack-: anyway, in *real* ubuntu, the system settings program has a 'software and updates' section, which lets you look at other 'download from:' sources, which in turn has a "select best server" option, by testing mirrors for speed and so on. perhaps you have something similar15:25
Asterisksholstein: you're almost never promised linux support, I've yet to find hardware that flat out would work with linux15:26
varunendraarcsky, are you connected to internet?15:26
arcskyvarunendra: yes15:26
=== BinaryMcAwesome is now known as McAwesome
arcskyvarunendra: apt-get update works fine15:27
jack-daftykins, i already found the option (configure software sources) in muon15:27
edge226ikonia: could I just explode the img file?15:27
holsteinAsterisks: i have found *plenty". and its not the resposibility of linux to support the hardware.. and in a corporate enviironment, you may find hardware or software that is not supporting linux well, and i am only suggesting you be prepared for that15:27
varunendraarcsky, is 'universe' repository enabled while doing update?15:27
ikoniaedge226: how would you "explode it" ?15:27
ikoniaedge226: surly you'd need to know if/how it was compressed and how it's data is stored15:27
edge226ikonia: so im pretty much screwed as of getting the stuff off without having to dd it somewhere?15:28
ikoniaedge226: who said anything about dd ?15:28
Asterisksholstein: all the hardware they have is (as I said) old and mass produced.  Both suggest that linux would have drivers floating around15:28
tbtptbedge226:  can't you read the data as ro?  you can still copy the files then?15:28
ikoniaedge226: if you know the type of file it is, you can probably just mount it as a loop back device15:28
edge226ikonia: it would contain two partitions a fat and a ext4.15:29
ikoniaedge226: if it's something like squashfs you'll need to mount it then unsquash the file system which normally happens as part of the boot process15:29
edge226ikonia: nope its not that.15:29
arcskyhttp://pastebin.com/MC4zQ75G15:29
ikoniaedge226: it's not what ?15:29
arcskyvarunendra: there u can see[5~15:29
edge226ikonia: its an image for an imbedded device, squashfs has nothing to do with it. I would be doing dd to a sd or emmc to get the img working.15:29
clevasMy computer supports neither sucureboot nor uefi and ubuntu still wont boot up dual boot15:30
tbtptbI can remember a method in the distant past of mount individual partitions within a .img file15:30
tbtptbit involves offsets15:30
ikoniaedge226: how do you know squashfs has nothing to do with it, squash FS is used in embeeded systems to save space15:30
daftykinstbtptb: sounds nasty15:30
ikoniaedge226: you seem to be sure of what it is not, whithout having any idea of what it is15:30
tbtptbyeah, but that long ago, much was15:31
ikoniathat doesn't seem possible15:31
daftykinsarcsky: so the question comes to mind - why do you want to install VLC in a live session? :)15:31
edge226ikonia: I've done a scratch install. Pretty much the only piece I am missing is what command they used to write the image...15:31
varunendraarcsky, please check - Alt+F2 > "software-properties-gtk" > make sure "Universe" repository is enabled15:31
pakairarcsky, what error do you get when you  sudo apt-get install vlc?15:31
arcskyunivserse did the trick15:32
ikoniaedge226: a scratch install ? I have no idea what this is / what you're doing15:32
ikoniaedge226: basically try to mount it as a loop back device15:32
ikoniaedge226: see what errors you get and work it through15:32
edge226ikonia: isnt that what it does by default for a .img file? It was complaining about /dev/loop1 lol...15:33
ikoniaedge226: you just typed "mount" and hoped it would work out15:33
ikoniaedge226: no, you offered no arguments/commands15:33
varunendraarcsky, in the channel here, you can use "!info <package name>" trick to find which repo it belongs to :)15:33
edge226ikonia: so what syntax do you suggest. Because I have tried a few things already...15:34

edge226a .img file.15:34
edge226http://celps.org/p3un6 < you can get the error there.15:34
ikoniaedge226: I'd suggest you try to mount it as a loop back image, or fully understand the format of the image file and mount it correctly15:35
ikoniaedge226: what version of ubuntu is this you're trying to mount it on ?15:35
edge226ikonia: and I asked systax. I've looked on the net. tried what people said for loopback devices and I get the exact same message.15:35
ikoniaedge226: what syntax have you used15:35
edge226ikonia: 14.0415:35
daftykinsedge226: what do you hope to achieve by mounting the image of an ARM architecture OS?15:36
edge226mount -o loop .img place; someone else said mount -R loop .img place.15:36
ikoniaedge226: run file against the image file15:36
edge226daftykins: its a prebuilt funtoo, My funtoo isnt booting so I was going to snag the kernel stuff off of there and see if that worked.15:36
maddawgare you actually writing word "place"15:37
daftykinsedge226: you've made your own somehow?15:37
maddawgalso what's the error you are getting15:37
edge226maddawg: lol no, I just said that so I did not have to type a bunch of stuff.15:37
edge226daftykins: There was a funtoo img available that I tested and it worked. It contained Mate and I wanted a fresh install so I built one. It doesnt boot so in order to test the kernel that I built I want to grab the one I know worked.15:38
tbtptbbootable?  There should be a way to make another bootable image file.15:38
daftykinsedge226: seems like a totally backwards approach :)15:39
edge226daftykins: yeah I never figured it would be this difficult, I think I may have to backup my current ubuntu install from the SD, write the funtoo image over, pull the kernel, rezero the drive and then reflash the ubuntu lol.15:41

phirexi didnt notice my laptop wasn't charging and my computer turned off16:17

phirexwhat are we looking for?16:27
ActionParsnipskinux: no the commands are different in function16:27
daftykinsphirex: post the output to paste.ubuntu.com16:27
skinuxWell, 'su16:27
ActionParsnipskinux: su is used to become or run commands as a different user16:27
phirexhow do i post output to a file?16:27
skinux'su' is disabled isn't it?16:27
varunendrascrubfest, try the 'manual' (no internet) method. Although the commandline method also works here..16:27
luckybunnyI have beaten the black screen (hallelujah) but still can't get unity going16:27
holsteinluckybunny: try something that doesnt require 3d..16:28
ActionParsnipskinux: sudo is used to grant admin access to specific users.16:28
holsteinluckybunny: if only for testing, try lxde or xfce16:28
skinuxI know we cannot login as root user.16:28
ActionParsnipskinux: yes, thats a good thing too16:28
wilee-nileeluckybunny, You at trusty now?16:28
phirexbecause the internet client i got with this live cd crashes after a second16:28
varunendraphirex, (command) > (file)16:28

luckybunnyyes16:28
phirexthank you16:29
varunendranp :)16:29
wilee-nileeluckybunny, Have you tried a nomodeset boot as a test?16:29
daftykinsphirex: you could try installing "pastebinit" then simply run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit"16:29
phirex760867316:29
luckybunnyI thank my lucky stars I stuck a folder on my desktop at some point. I can use it to open nautilus, which I can then use to get a terminal16:29
ActionParsnipskinux: su isnt disabled, you can use it to become any user you know the password of16:29
phirexhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/7608673/16:30
daftykinsreading now16:30
phirexthanks16:30
daftykinsphirex: what kind of system is this? laptop?16:30
skinuxWell, if I try to login to root using 'su' it says authentication failure16:30
phirexyeah16:30
ActionParsnipluckybunny: pressnCTRL + ALT + T and you will open a terminal16:30
luckybunnyActionParsnip: tried that a few times. nada16:31
ActionParsnipskinux: yes because the root account is disabled and has no password16:31
jack-skinux, what you want is "sudo su -"16:31
skinuxOh! Cool! I thought we couldn't do anything as root directly.16:31
ActionParsnipskinux: that doesnt mean su is disabled in any way16:31
luckybunnygoing to try the onmodeset boot, but I think I already have done so. worth checking out, still16:31
daftykinsphirex: ok, i'd carry on making up the flash drive with true desktop ubuntu please - the disk is fine in hardware terms, just very weird in software terms16:31
ActionParsnipskinux: sudo -s ,root console is yours16:31
phirexok16:31
phirexthat makes me happier :)16:31
phirexit should, right?16:31
wilee-nileeskinux, how did the memory test go?16:31
skinuxIn early version of Ubuntu and other distros, 'su' and root password would become root.16:32
skinuxWhat memory test?16:32
ActionParsnipskinux: if you have multiple users you can use su to become them using su16:32
wilee-nileeskinux, sorry I meant another user my mistake. ;)16:32
ActionParsnipskinux: yes because su without a username is efeectively 'su root'16:32
daftykinsphirex: should...?16:32
phirexdaftykins: make me happier?16:32
skinuxActionParsnip: how do we login to another user desktop instead of just shell?16:33
ActionParsnipskinux: and the account is disabled, so you will get an authentication failure16:33
daftykinsphirex: oh yes16:33
skinuxIs it disabled in Ubuntu kernel or is there a setting somewhere?16:33
luckybunnynomodeset boot makes no difference (apart from the lack of splash screen)16:33
ActionParsnipskinux: you'd need to log out to log in as another user on the desktop16:33
luckybunnyat least I'm getting a desktop now though16:33
ActionParsnipskinux: its a setting on the sccount16:33
docmur_Does anyone know any good PCB design tools for Ubuntu?  I'm use to Altium / Orcad on Windows16:34
ActionParsnipskinux: its not needed, you have sudo16:34
skinuxHow about restarting graphical desktop using keyboard combination? How do we do that these days?16:34
ActionParsnipskinux: killall -u $USER ,will do it16:34
wilee-nileeluckybunny, Thanks, use nicks here to preface those you answer please,16:34
luckybunnywilee-nilee: ok16:34
skinuxHow about if system is being too laggy to type anything into a shell?16:34
skinuxCtrl+Alt+Backspace used to restart Windowing system, but doesn't do anything anymore.16:35
ActionParsnipskinux: maybe ALT + K + PrintScreen maybe16:35
SchrodingersScatActionParsnip: did it always use to work like that? I seem to remember being able to lock one user's session and log in as another?16:35
wilee-nileeluckybunny, ctrl-alt-t gives you a terminal as well.16:35
ActionParsnipSchrodingersScat: could use the switch user function I guess16:35
luckybunnywilee-nilee: I know, but it's not working16:36
ActionParsnipskinux: i believe there is a switch user feature in Ubuntu...16:36
skinuxSometimes my system gets bogged down so that all I can do is move cursor, but clicking things doesn't do any god.16:36
wilee-nileeluckybunny, Really strange you can install synapse it is a small search gui that would help you here,16:36
SchrodingersScatActionParsnip: it's greyed out on mine, maybe thats because I only have one user with login?16:36
ActionParsnipSchrodingersScat: could make a new user to test ;)16:37
daftykinsskinux: zapping has been disabled for 4+ years16:37
skinuxNot switch user....just restart desktop environment16:37
ActionParsnipskinux: try the key combo16:37
skinuxWhich one?16:37
skinuxALT+K+PrintScreen16:38
ActionParsnipskinux: ALTGR + K + PrintScreen16:38

daniel31i'm not entirely sure that changing your mac will nessesarily have the effect you desire, unless what you desire is some sort of penetration or intrusion test, but thats your call...16:58

daniel31yeah, what they said. if someone has your mac it wont make it easier to hack into yur computer. if youre using linux and have good passwords youre already ahead of the game. the only time people need to know their mac addres is on some private networks, e.g. soe university residential networks only work with a list of known mac addresses. the only time you'd want to change it that I can think of is if you want to hack into those networks.17:00

Guest35114All you would need would be a working grub, and then, revert upgrade17:10
Guest35114(or rollback, etc)17:10
wilee-nileeGuest35114, wrong17:10
phirexdaftykins: hehehe. ok so what do i do? :)17:10
daftykinsphirex: got it all plugged in and can see it's nice and empty?17:11
Guest35114wrong17:11
Guest35114why17:11
daniel31I wonder if somekind of locked grub partition with recovery might be the answer, like with phones. they were talking about it over at the debian security mailing list earlier today, who knows, might be the way forwards.17:11
wilee-nileeGuest35114, There is no rollback.17:11
conall2wilee-nilee, I understand. but I cant seem to remember what I did. I think it was just in my home dir. Do you know of the important files in the home dir that lightdm would need17:11
Guest35114That is my point17:11
habananyOerHeks whats the command17:11
Guest35114I WISH there was17:11
phirexdaftykins: yep.17:11
dirty__hi all just curious if there is a good compiler editor for objective c on ubuntu i have a mac but want to learn ob c on my ubuntu system as the mac isnt my fav any guidance welcomed17:11
wilee-nileeconall2, Not really, If I had a clue in this ( what you did) I would suggest.17:12
daftykinsphirex: ok see if 'clonezilla' is available17:12
phirexdaftykins: just a few files coming with it17:12
wilee-nileeGuest35114, than if it is a want don;t suggest something that is not there, that is not helping.17:12
conall2I was playing around with chmod but as far as I can tell all the permissions are the same as on my other user account17:13
Guest35114wilee, that is not helping why, exactly17:13
phirexdaftykins: no, will install now17:13
Guest35114Just because it`s not there, is that it17:13
wilee-nileeGuest35114, That is a basic problem, I am not going to argue with inane questions.17:14

arw132yes yes17:18

daftykinsthat'd be more personal than channel ;)17:18
daniel31lol17:19
wilee-nileedaftykins, a continued diatribe of dis help and name calling is an issue.17:19
wilee-nileeit will only get worse17:19
phirexdaftykins: i cant seem to find that repo17:22
wilee-nileeChogyDan, Have you summed checked the iso or the burn/load of the install media?17:22
varunendrametaphysician, who was your msg directed to? The info is useful by the way, how did you discover that?17:22
daftykinsphirex: do you see the tickboxes in the software and updates part of system settings?17:22
phirexyes17:23
daftykinsphirex: so the second one, universe should be ticked?17:23
ActionParsnipChogyDan: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?17:23
phirexgot it17:23
phirexticked it17:23
daftykinsphirex: ok, close out and re-run apt-get update17:23
phirexwas easier than i though, i was looking to add a specific repository17:24
ChogyDanwilee-nilee: yes, ironically I ran into another media issue that the built in medium checker doesn't pick up, so I don't think it is a media issue17:24
wilee-nileeChogyDan, What you think is an opinion, a sum check is empirical.17:24
daniel31Hmm. So I'm on a mac and just finished dd'ing my usb install media. "Disc was unreadable, would you like to initialise." is this likely to be a  problem? download is from torrent.17:24
phirexdaftykins: ok, installed it17:25
wilee-nileegotta check variables ChogyDan17:25
daftykinsphirex: alrighty, so run 'sudo clonezilla'17:25
phirexdone17:25
daniel31disk utility is refusing to mount or interact with it much...17:25
ActionParsnipdaniel31: did you unplug the usb at any point, or did you keep it in and reboot?17:25
daftykinsphirex: it'll run a ghetto text mode program, asking several questions in sequence17:25
daniel31haven't unplugged it all. i'm installing it to a different system tho; havent tried booting it yet.17:25
ActionParsnipdaniel31: can you mount the usb partition in MacOS ok?17:26
ChogyDanwilee-nilee: sum check passed on a usb that I may have installed multiple times to.  It was failing.  I reinstalled same iso, wiping the usb, and then it worked more.  But yeah, I agree in principle to make sure to check the sum17:26
daftykinsphirex: so i'd select device-image17:26
phirexdaftykins: done17:26
daniel31no actionparsnip, I can't.17:26
wilee-nileeChogyDan, Ah cool, it helps to know process you have tried. ;)17:26
daftykinsphirex: then local_dev17:26
phirexok17:27
daftykinsphirex: so at that point it breaks out to terminal again and says blah blah make sure the device is plugged in...17:27
phirexyes17:27
daniel31both my .img and .iso files: "no readable mountable filesystem" when mounted thru finder. balls. does that mean my download is buggered?17:27
wilee-nileeChogyDan, You might try the mini netload.17:27
phirexdone that, back to ghetto, now it shows sda117:27
daftykinsphirex: sorta like - http://b2b.cbsimg.net/blogs/clonezilla_select_source.png ?17:28

daftykinsphirex: does it have the same message text? as that appears to be asking to mount the device to backup to, not the partition to backup17:28
angelicahow can I fix the unstable wifi?17:29
ChogyDanwilee-nilee: yeah, I just sum checked again.  Passed.  I'm worried it is a real kernel bug.  The problem is the system crashes before I can do very much.  I certainly can't file a bug report17:29
phirexdaftykins: yea. thats not good right? we need to choose the usb for that, right?17:30
daftykinsphirex: indeed17:30
phirexok it did show something like "usb busy" let me go back to that17:30
daftykinsphirex: ah maybe the USB was auto mounted and the program wants to do it, tell you what quit the program and unplug the drive17:30
daftykinsphirex: yeah i think it's because it was auto mounted17:31
phirexoh ok17:31

bekksSquall5668: you find it at the scrap dealer.18:25
ActionParsnipgrimeton: have you tried chrooting to the installed OS and running fully updating?18:26
MrCleanWithHairvarunendra-- http://pastebin.com/QJe40Yva18:26
grimetonActionParsnip: how does that help me booting it?18:26
ActionParsnipgrimeton: it will update Grub which may help18:26
ActionParsnipgrimeton: are the drives SATA?18:26
grimetonActionParsnip: i updated it several times and it always works ...18:26
grimetonActionParsnip: yeah18:26
Squall5668bekks: It could be a g818:26
ActionParsnipgrimeton: have you tried setting IDE compatibility mode in BIOS?18:27
ActionParsnipgrimeton: what GPU do you use please?18:27
bekksSquall5668: then he would have mentioned it to be g8, assumably. However, I'm not interested in his issues anymore, let's move on.18:27
grimetonActionParsnip: it's practically this problem: http://mergy.org/2013/04/ubuntu-server-on-an-hp-dl320e-gen8/18:27
grimetonActionParsnip: difference is i'm using 14.0418:27
ActionParsnipgrimeton: what GPU are you using?18:28
grimetonActionParsnip: eeer what?18:28
ActionParsnipgrimeton: the video chip.....?18:28
grimetonhow is that involved in booting?18:28
ActionParsnipgrimeton: graphical processing unit18:28
ActionParsnipgrimeton: because if there is a driver issue that needs a boot option then it may stop the boot18:29
grimetonActionParsnip: before grub is even launched? don't think so18:29
ActionParsnipgrimeton: then i'd try and get the version of grub updated in chroot18:30
grimetonActionParsnip: from 14.04 to what?18:30
ActionParsnipgrimeton: or use a different boot loader.18:30
grimetoni think it's more a compatibility issue here18:30
ActionParsnipgrimeton: no, the version of grub.18:30
grimetonActionParsnip: and what grub package should i install to upgrade?18:31
ActionParsnipgrimeton: grub is a package. It is installed using the deb on the install media, however it will get updated on the online repos and you would pull this down in regular updates18:31
grimetonActionParsnip: yeah, but running 14.04 with the latest updates, what package could is use to get a even newer grub version installed?18:31
ActionParsnipgrimeton: so if you chroot, you can run updates and it may resolve the issue, right18:31
ActionParsnipgrimeton: thats not ansentance18:32
ActionParsnipA sentence*18:32
grimetonah18:32
ActionParsnipgrimeton: when you install the grub packages the postinst tells the OS to run: update-grub which may also help18:33
grimetonActionParsnip: yeah, tell me something i don't know18:33
grimetonActionParsnip: tell me how to upgrade grub18:33
grimetonActionParsnip: i'm running 14.04 with the latest updates18:33
grimetonnow point me to an even newer grub package18:33
ActionParsnipgrimeton: sudo update-grub18:33
* grimeton gives up18:34
ActionParsnipgrimeton: if you have the latest updates then you have the latest version of grub for Trusty18:34
ActionParsnipgrimeton: you could also ask in #grub18:34
rvdvActionParsnip: update-grub will not install a newer package of grub .... which was the question18:35
ActionParsnipgrimeton: i'd try the IDE compatibility in BIOS. Could even try Burg.18:35
ActionParsniprvdv: yes that's why I wrote 'if you have the latest updates then you have the latest version of grub for Trusty'18:36
grimetonyeah whatever, thanks for the help...18:37

biaHi, I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop (new installation). I have a problem with the USB 2.0 ports. When I use my USB mouse in the 2.0 port it is extremely slow, while in the USB 3.0 ports it works perfectly. Due to a HDMI->DVI adapter, I can however not use the 3.0 ports. Any help appreciated!18:53
grimetoni wonder if 480mbit/s isn't enough for today mouses18:54
biagrimeton: hehe, got the same problem if I put the keyboard in a 2.0 port :/18:55
grimetonbia: check the bios if there is some usb 2.0 setting, maybe ehci offload or something that could be a problem18:56
mojtabaActionParsnip: It is working now. But what was the problem? ( I am confused.) But the problem is that I lost everything from before. Can I add them to this one?18:56
ActionParsnipmojtaba: the config was causing the issue. Maybe something updated and the config you had was slightly off.18:56

angelicaActionParsnip: I guess I have some reading to do... do you recommend some sort of super basic manual for definitively non computer savvy mortals like me?19:48

joseluis64Hello, I can't make the gtk applications to show its menubars in plasma-widget-menubar20:05
joseluis64I could before20:05
mlabbezykotick9: bummer. is there some permission I could give a standard user to do this?   If you want to know why, it is because I am using a buildbot (remote build server) to wake and put a build slave to sleep to save power/heat.  The buildbot user just cannot be root.20:06
zykotick9mlabbe: it would be possible to configure sudo to NOT require a password for the specific pm-suspend command - but don't ask me how ;)  best of luck.20:07

ubottutheperfectpunk: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode20:39

ubnoobtuheyall. I am having a issue. If someone could help, thatd be neat. I recently begun using ubuntu, but I messed somewhere21:47
zykotick9ubnoobtu: providing details often helps21:47
zykotick9ubnoobtu: all on one line, and don't include my nickname in it21:48
phirexredlance: Well not really, its a dell laptop and i dont have any cables to try and connect it externally to another laptop or something.21:48
ubnoobtuOkay, Just making sure I was heard. This is my problem. I am using ubuntu 12.04, Its a fresh install. I want to connect my wireless card to it, but the card doesnt come with any linux drivers.21:49
phirexredlance: but why would this machine not be able to mount it..?21:49
ubnoobtuSo how do I get the card turned on?21:49
redlancephirex, I was thinking about ruling out any hardware problems.21:49
zykotick9ubnoobtu: find out what card it is "lspci | grep -i net" _might_ show you.  AND, you may find using 14.04 your card works OOTB.21:50
phirexredlance: I see, well no thats not an option but i dont think this machine is the issue... what else can i try?21:50
ubnoobtuI'd like to install then, huh.21:51

redlancephirex, Open a command line window, and type "cd /media"21:52
phirexredlance: ok21:52
zykotick9ubnoobtu: is that USB?  or in a laptop?  try "lsusb | grep -i net" perhaps.21:52

jcstarkenReally looking for some help with printer sharing 12.0422:57

braindrophey I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04 server and it hangs at the "detecting network hardware" dialog22:58
helpyits good to be back on ubuntu after years, lots of improved. still it takes heck of a time to figure out things :) which can also be fun22:58
* zykotick9 notes backtrack is dead22:58
braindropcan anyone help?22:58
braindropThis is on hardware that has been running 10.04 for 3 years without an issue22:59
wheatthinbraindrop, is it console based?22:59
ubnoobtukali seems pretty cool22:59
braindropwheatthin: yes, server22:59
wheatthinkali is backtrack just renamed :P by that's offtopic22:59
helpyubnoobtu,  is it ? is that any better with hardware?22:59
helpyi know. i have it loaded in downloads :)22:59
zykotick9wheatthin: is ubuntu just debian but renamed... i hardly think so.23:00
helpysee how it works. Backtrack is a pain with hardware atleast or lets say for a noob like me23:00
ubnoobtuhelpy: I dont know stuff about it other than my ethical hacker course mentioned it23:00
wheatthinlol.. a customized distro isn't always coded by the distributor .. lol23:00
wilee-nileehelpy, I would get a usb wifi that plugs and plays, amazon has many listed with works in linux, many are less than 10$23:00
helpyit does exactly that in windows wilee-nilee23:00
varikonniemiwheatthin, what does it mean?23:01
helpyit should do that in linux also? :)23:01
wilee-nileehelpy, windows working is not relative here is all. ;)23:01
cmdswitchhelpy: ubuntu != windows23:01
helpytrue that.23:01
helpywhat i probably wanted to say that it IS plug and play23:01
ubnoobtuAnyone familiar with Nvidia? I want to my a config file and adjust the screen, but I dont remember/know how23:01
wilee-nileehelpy, Tell that it should work to the manufacturers so the actually make drivers.23:01
wheatthinvarikonniemi, could be a prompt that you're not seeing.. like  NTP when they set the clocks and region23:01
wilee-nileethey*23:01
Marduk666hi everyone.... lately I've been experiencing weird issues detecting my USB drives.. I have the external HD plugged into the usb port also a USB stick.. but the computer is not recognizing any of them..... here is the output: http://bpaste.net/show/Kz6SPBikSf8KfXp3Cdg9/23:02
helpywilee-nilee, actually it does have a unix folder staying on my desktop23:02
helpydoes install it though23:02
Marduk666or pastebin if you prefer: http://pastebin.com/ByznH19823:02
helpyubuntu installed the same usb without a hitch23:02
helpybacktrack didnt.23:02
wilee-nileehelpy, You are making very little sense, but it is not my issue, best of luck. :)23:02
helpyso i guess backtrack 5 < ubuntu23:02
cmdswitchubnoobtu: try http://askubuntu.com/questions/302518/how-to-get-an-nvidia-control-panel23:03
jcstarkenwhy does cups keep dropping printer, so what should I use instead23:03
wheatthinhelpy that's a really not so good way to look at things lol.23:03
helpyumm what :s23:03
wheatthinsaying one is greater.. I believe we have much better, active support than any other distro (just about) ;).. so saying a dead distro is greater is not so good23:04
helpyi just said that i am connected with my usb wireless device in ubuntu without a problem. it ran out of the box. in backtrack it didnt23:04

braindropI saw that, but it doesnt talk at all about what you lose by disabling them23:09
dhaval2712Hello?23:09
braindropalso, I never had to disable these things when I installed 10.04, same hardware... so I'm confused23:09

blindragei'm having a strange issue. i'm running linaro on an arm device (udoo)23:12
wheatthinlinaro?23:13
blindragea few weeks ago, all was good and perfect, the internal sata drive went bad. just replaced it, put linaro back on23:13
blindrage12.0423:13
blindragei have a 4x sata to usb enclosure, works on windows, and it worked with this before i replaced the internal drive23:13
blindragesince the reload, the drive won't show up23:14
blindragenot sure where to start troubleshooting...sudo fdisk -l doens't show the drives in the enclosure, just my internal sata and the memory card that boots the arm device23:14
wheatthinblindrage, did you make sure the drive device is correct in fstab?23:14
blindragedesktop ubuntu and my windows box show up fine23:14
blindragethere's nothing in fstab23:15
blindrageexcept my swap partition23:15
wheatthindoes it show up while using 'sudo fdisk -l'23:15
wheatthinwithout the quote23:15
claudioi've got a cinnamon in ububtu it's great23:15
blindragenope, just mmcblk0 and sda23:15
wheatthinand it's an esata or usb to sata?23:16
blindragesda is the internal drive, mmc is the memory card that starts the boot process (uboot)23:16
blindragesata to usb23:16
blindrageprobox4 to be excat23:16
wheatthintry upgrading kernel?23:16
blindrageand i know the udoo supports port multiplication since it worked before23:16
blindrageapt-get upgrade shows no eligable packages23:17
dw1claudio: why not ask in #debian23:17
wheatthinfor 12.04 release?23:17
blindrageyea, arm version23:17
wheatthinhmm..23:17
blindragei could always try their version of arch and see if maybe there's something missing from when they made their version arm compat23:18
blindragei'm trying to avoid doing it over and over again23:19
wheatthinhttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/04/upgrade-ubuntu-14-04-12-0423:19
claudiothaks!!!23:19
blindrageupdate-manager not found, assuming it's not possible with this one23:20
blindrageit's not a pure ubuntu distro i'm guessing since ubuntu doesn't support arm out of the box23:20
wheatthinumm it should be installed either way23:20
wheatthinthen check coninical repo and upgrade23:21
wheatthincanonical sorry23:22

OerHeksuse paste.ubuntu.com for multiple lines23:38

rvgateHello, i was wondering if all the hardware in this desktop is fully supported: http://tweakers.net/gallery/121456?inv_id=299449#tab:inventaris (click Desktop) my main concern is the webcam (C525), the videocards (2x HD6950) running in crossfire and the 5.1 headset that connects using SPDIF and USB... would this all run flawlessly or are there some expected issues?23:41
