| asdfasdf | When I log in, the words "Ubuntu 14.04 LTS" don't disappear from the screen, and Unity doesn't come up. | 00:00 |
| Fevix | daftykins: Okay, but how do I get that to be a bootable drive that lets me install it to a hard drive? | 00:01 |

| cerry | sdfasdf: hybrid graphics? | 00:02 |
| daftykins | Fevix: what OS are you on now? | 00:03 |
| cerry | *asdfasdf ~ sounds like my problem | 00:03 |
| asdfasdf | cerry, I don't think so | 00:03 |
| asdfasdf | I've got a GT218M | 00:03 |
| CyanBlob | holstein: Alright, I got it fixed. Resetting Unity did not work, but when I tried running pulseaudio from the terminal, it told me that it did not have proper permissions in my home directory, which I recently moved to a new partition. A 'chown' fixed that. Thank you for your help! | 00:03 |
| basketball | who here is good with printers | 00:03 |
| Fevix | daftykins: WIn7 | 00:03 |
| cerry | asdfasdf: then i think we just have driver problems in common ;) | 00:03 |
| Fevix | I'm looking to install it to a different machine, not this one. | 00:04 |
| asdfasdf | Hahah | 00:04 |
| cerry | asdfasdf: you have Nvidia? | 00:04 |
| daftykins | Fevix: ok grab universal USB installer from pendrivelinux.com to make up the flash drive ^_^ | 00:04 |
| asdfasdf | cerry, do you know what's the command for purging and reinstalling the drivers from the command line? | 00:04 |
| Fevix | daftykins: Okay, thanks! | 00:04 |
| cerry | i can help you search ^^; looking for drivers anway | 00:04 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: is that an nvidia optimus setup? | 00:05 |
| aledzadza | no one can help me with that? :( | 00:05 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, no | 00:05 |
| cerry | given the fact i have ATI and apt-get purge fglrx works for me I'd try | 00:06 |
| cerry | asdfasdf: sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-* | 00:06 |
| OerHeks | aledzadza, how is that related to ubuntu support? | 00:06 |
| aledzadza | OerHeks: i want to become a linux guru | 00:06 |
| cerry | but maybe use tab completion instead copypaste the * blindly ;) | 00:06 |
| aledzadza | and this is only irc channel i know | 00:06 |
| asdfasdf | The weird thing is that lightdm comes up, and I can log in, it just never drops to Unity | 00:07 |
| cerry | aledzadza: be water my friend :) | 00:07 |
| asdfasdf | And I can't figure out how to reset unity now that the "--reset" flag no longer works | 00:07 |
| === general_failure is now known as Guest93405 | ||
| cerry | asdfasdf: exactly my problem! | 00:07 |
| aledzadza | i dont even know were to start | 00:07 |
| asdfasdf | cerry, have you tried the open source drivers? | 00:07 |
| asdfasdf | cerry, the laptop I'm using now uses radeon, and they're pretty decent | 00:07 |
| cerry | yes, these works for logging in but dont detect my external screen :C | 00:08 |
| asdfasdf | Oh I see what you're trying to do | 00:08 |
| asdfasdf | That sucks | 00:08 |
| cerry | pretty hard :C only downer but major one ;_; | 00:08 |
| Megabyte | Hey guys | 00:09 |
| Megabyte | how do I change my username on Ubuntu? | 00:10 |
| cerry | i found some intersting stuff here: http://askubuntu.com/a/288355 but it's late in good ol' EU so maye tomorrow I'll go down that road | 00:10 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: there are guides online saying how to reset unity since the change | 00:11 |
| asdfasdf | cerry, thanks for the lead | 00:11 |
| Bashing-om | asdfasdf: I feel for you; Show us what we are indeed working with. Terminal code -> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 vga <- to provide requested advise. | 00:11 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, I can't find them, askubuntu usually has an answer but I can't find one now | 00:11 |
| cerry | asdfasdf: i thing thats for ATI… you should go for nvidea | 00:11 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: can you log in at a TTY? | 00:12 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, yes I can | 00:12 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: can you run "dpkg -l | grep nvidia" ? | 00:12 |
| Corey84 | having issues with FDE (luis with a usb /boot) on mint 17 after mounting /dev/sdd1 /mnt/boot and chroot / update-initramfs -u -k all gives a dpkg couldn't securely remove linux-image-3.13. | 00:12 |
| daftykins | !mint | Corey84 | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Corey84: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 00:13 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, I've got nvidia-310, nvidia-319, nvidia-331, nvidia-libopencl1-331, nvidia-opencl-icd-331, nvidia-prime, and nvidia-settings installed | 00:13 |
| daftykins | ugh no wonder you have issues | 00:13 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia* | 00:14 |
| cerry | ^^; | 00:14 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, done | 00:14 |
| cerry | sudo service lightdm restart | 00:15 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: reboot and see if you get in | 00:15 |
| daftykins | or that ^ | 00:15 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, I'm not going to have to reinstall the packages? | 00:15 |
| cerry | ;) got some practice today :P | 00:15 |
| daftykins | one step at a time. | 00:15 |
| Corey84 | ubottu: i have I unfortuantely am one of about 5 guys there that understands luks and we all thought here might help | 00:15 |
| ubottu | Corey84: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:15 |
| daftykins | Corey84: we don't help with Mint, sorry. | 00:15 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, I not get the default wallpaper with a cursor that I can use to select | 00:16 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, wait... something just happened | 00:16 |
| daftykins | well don't leave me in suspense, man! | 00:16 |
| asdfasdf | lol sorry, I'm on two laptops | 00:17 |
| asdfasdf | It's installing the flashplugin | 00:17 |
| asdfasdf | So it looks like the WM is up, I just don't have any window decorations | 00:17 |
| daftykins | er, what? | 00:17 |
| * cerry gets excited, popcorn? | 00:17 | |
| daftykins | ok, hrmm | 00:17 |
| cerry | can u open dash with superkey? | 00:18 |
| asdfasdf | Nope | 00:18 |
| asdfasdf | ctrl+alt+t doesn't work to bring up a terminal either, but I can use ctrl alt f1 to get one | 00:18 |
| asdfasdf | right click works | 00:18 |
| cerry | did you reboot or just restart lightdm? | 00:18 |
| asdfasdf | restarted lightdm | 00:18 |
| asdfasdf | Worth a reboot? | 00:18 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: why not | 00:18 |
| cerry | maybe daftykins was right ;) | 00:18 |
| asdfasdf | hahah | 00:19 |
| daftykins | nah i don't think it should've done anything really | 00:19 |
| daftykins | maybe it could unload any booted in with kernel modules | 00:19 |
| daftykins | not sure | 00:19 |
| cerry | who understands computers after all *shrugs* ^^" | 00:19 |
| asdfasdf | This is exactly why I love Ubuntu... I hate dealing with X so much that I went to the first distro that supported it well | 00:19 |
| asdfasdf | And even now, what used to be a multi-hour headache is like not a huge deal | 00:19 |
| daftykins | so what kind of age laptop is this thing to have a 2xx series nvidia? | 00:19 |
| daftykins | GT218M, hmm | 00:20 |
| asdfasdf | HP elitebook 8440p | 00:20 |
| asdfasdf | Circa 2010 or 2011 IIRC | 00:20 |
| asdfasdf | So yeah, X comes up and I can log in. Cursor works, it's just Unity that isn't appearing on the screen | 00:21 |
| daftykins | http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/reset-unity-and-compiz-settings-in-ubuntu-14-04/ | 00:21 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: ^ | 00:21 |
| asdfasdf | Usually I'd use "unity --reset", but that no longer works, and askubuntu doesn't seem to have a fix | 00:21 |
| asdfasdf | Oh well timed | 00:21 |
| Bashing-om | daftykins: -> asdfasdf :: dconf-tools ?? | 00:21 |
| daftykins | Bashing-om: they use a dconf command in that link above | 00:21 |

| asdfasdf | When I run the dconf command I get "error: cannot autolaunch d-bus witout X11 $DISPLAY" | 00:22 |
| magesing | Hi everyone, I just installed ubuntu desktop along-side my windows 8.1 installation. Unfortunately I'm no-longer able to boot into my windows installation. How can I fix the boot-loader so that I can boot into both ubuntu and windows? | 00:22 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: hmm, maybe it doesn't like not being run inside the GUI session | 00:22 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, that's kinda what I'm thinking | 00:23 |
| cerry | magesing: do you use BIOS or UEFI? | 00:23 |
| catalase | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5lgwopmKMw | 00:23 |
| catalase | oops | 00:23 |
| catalase | wrong channel | 00:23 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: i wonder if you can run a terminal session from the TTY and have it appear in X | 00:23 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, I can't figure out how to tell it to use the display | 00:24 |
| magesing | cerry: don't know yet, it's a Thinkpad yoga that I just got today | 00:24 |
| asdfasdf | I intentionally stay away from Xorg because I hate it so much | 00:24 |
| magesing | cerry: appers to be UEFI according to google | 00:24 |
| cerry | magesing: brand new? smells like uefi to me | 00:24 |
| magesing | cerry: yes, brand new, just off the plane from shanghai | 00:25 |
| cerry | i've only encountered it once and was only windows booted - no grub appeared | 00:25 |
| cerry | there's some pretty "hardcore" with reinstalling grub but for me it was about the settings in bios, legacy mode > no secure boot … something else bout legacy … | 00:26 |
| magesing | cerry: well, the installer correctly made a list of options including both ubuntu and windows, but the windows option does not boot | 00:26 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: hmm, can you install pastebinit from the TTY? | 00:26 |
| aledzadza | how can i make irssi make äåä? | 00:26 |
| magesing | cerry: actually, I'm going to restart again and make note of the messages I get | 00:26 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, gimme a sec and I will | 00:26 |
| cerry | if its windows 8 you need uefi support somewhat i think - heard something like it wont boot if not. also some win7 version could be affected *shooting in the blue* | 00:27 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: then look for ~/.xsession-errors if it exists ("ls -a ~/" | 00:27 |
| Cuken_ | I need some guidance around the best way to setup the filesystem for 12tb of hard drive space on a fresh new 14.04 server install | 00:27 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, I rebooted and was able to log in as a guest | 00:27 |
| daftykins | Cuken_: what's the server going to do? | 00:27 |
| aledzadza | 3 | 00:27 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: ah-har, so something funky with your user config indeed | 00:28 |
| histo | !partition | Cuken_ | 00:28 |
| ubottu | Cuken_: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PartitioningSchemes l - For partitioning programs see !GParted, or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 00:28 |
| asdfasdf | one second while I get my wife (it's her computer) to log in and see if she is no longer having the issue | 00:28 |
| aledzadza | how do i change irssis charset to swedish?? | 00:28 |
| Cuken_ | daftykins I'm mainly going to use it as a NAS, however I was hosting a few gamer servers and ran LAMP last time | 00:28 |
| daftykins | Cuken_: i tend to like to keep server OSs separate from the storage | 00:28 |
| daftykins | so the OS remains on one disk | 00:28 |
| Cuken_ | Which I've done so far, I have 4 x 3tb disks, i made a 30gig partition just for the os, made a swap partition as well even tho the server has 16gb of ram | 00:29 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, cerry, Bashing-om thank you all. I got it working thanks to your help! | 00:30 |
| Cuken_ | My last server was running ZFS, but I was wondering if pursuing a different storage solution would be worth the effort. | 00:30 |
| daftykins | Cuken_: well no because i mean separate disk :) are those disks RAID'd? | 00:30 |
| Bashing-om | aledzadza: On irssi; might get better results in the #irssi channel. | 00:30 |
| asdfasdf | My wife sends her thanks as well, she thinks 14.04 is excellent | 00:30 |
| daftykins | asdfasdf: no problem :) that'll likely be using the default driver nouveau right now, but if 3D things aren't needed much, it should be just fine | 00:30 |
| Cuken_ | ahh i follow you dafty, 3 of the discs are brand new, unfortunately this chassis only has 4 disc slots and I'm trying to maximize storage this time around. | 00:31 |
| cerry | asdfasdf: all glory to daftykins :> i just recommended purge and light-restart after that i was as lost as you ^^; | 00:31 |
| asdfasdf | daftykins, thanks for the reminder, I'll deal with that this weekend | 00:31 |
| daftykins | cerry: ;) teamwork \o/ | 00:31 |
| Cuken_ | none of the disks have been mounted or partitioned outside of the primary who has the 30gig os partition and the swap | 00:31 |
| aluchko | woo! got it booted | 00:31 |
| cerry | daftykins: \^^/ thanks for the unity reset-link though | 00:31 |
| daftykins | cerry: i can't confirm if it's useful, i don't use desktop | 00:32 |
| cerry | whats your choice if i may ask? | 00:32 |
| aluchko | turns out while I had a boot partition neither fedora or ubuntu were actually using it, they were both just installing to their own boot directories assuming the mbr would point there | 00:32 |
| cerry | for desktop | 00:32 |
| daftykins | cerry: hehe, a little off topic here really... i mostly administer ubuntu and debian servers is all... at home things are different ^_^ | 00:33 |
| aluchko | I finally got grub installed in the boot partition, pointing to the ubuntu volume, but the only kernels there were a handful of old f17 kernels | 00:33 |
| cerry | ic :] | 00:33 |
| daftykins | Cuken_: ah-har, so you're not going to RAID these disks to pool them together at all? | 00:33 |
| Cuken_ | . . . Im not so concerned about DR, I was going to use LVM or at least attempt to, but im not sure its the right move to make here | 00:34 |
| aluchko | though the f17 kernels could boot ubuntu 14.04 well enough to get a text console, from there I was able to reinstall a newer kernel which dropped the images in the boot partition had get things running | 00:34 |
| daftykins | Cuken_: i have no experience with LVM so i'm no use there | 00:35 |
| Cuken_ | Let me ask how you would go about solving it then. If you didn't care about raiding and wanted to have a 12tb nas on ubuntu, how would you partition those drives?> | 00:36 |
| histo | Cuken_: I would through freenas on it personally | 00:37 |
| Bashing-om | aluchko: To see what grub thinks -> sudo debconf-show grub-pc , sudo grub-probe -t device /boot/grub , sudo grub-probe -t fs_uuid /boot/grub ( to verify the UUIDs). | 00:38 |
| Cuken_ | I thought about that histo, but I want to be able to leverage ubuntu for other things while hosting the nas, IE servers for mumble etc. | 00:38 |
| histo | Cuken_: ahh... well how are you going to manage backups of 12tb? | 00:39 |
| Cuken_ | I dont care about the backups right now, just need mass storage for a project i'm working on | 00:40 |
| aluchko | Bashing-om, it's finally working, I'm not going to start poking it again!! | 00:40 |
| Cuken_ | I do care about data write and read speed tho | 00:40 |
| === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon | ||
| histo | Cuken_: then raid would increase rw speed, however if you will be accessing it over the network that will be your bottleneck. | 00:41 |
| === general_failure_ is now known as general_failure | ||
| aluchko | I also just finished forcing a re-install of unity and all it's dependencies because I thought the lack of multiple workspaces meant it was broken :) | 00:41 |
| Bashing-om | aluchko: Yeah, Talking to grub can be extrustiating ! | 00:41 |
| histo | aluchko: probably means your configs are jacked up | 00:41 |
| aluchko | histo, nah, they just got disabled by default :( | 00:42 |
| AraHatAnagamin | Does iTunes work well with any linux distro? | 00:42 |
| aluchko | easily fixable but dissapointing | 00:42 |
| aluchko | Bashing-om, I'm just wondering if I trust both OS's to play nice and share the boot partition | 00:43 |
| Fall | I LOVE xfce with Whisker. Awesome stuff. | 00:44 |
| whitepowder | Any ideas what happened to the tw68-v2 driver for techwell 6804s? Got it off gitorious, cant get it built | 00:44 |
| Bashing-om | aluchko: Mind ya my knowledge of Fedora is minimal, but seems I recall that Fedora installs it's boot code to the partition, ubuntu installed grub to MBR and have grub chainload Fedora ? | 00:45 |
| whitepowder | Running kubuntu 14.04 | 00:46 |
| aluchko | Bashing-om, how it worked for ages is that fedora went in first and set up with the boot partition, then ubuntu went in and rewrote the MBR to point to ubuntu | 00:48 |
| basketball | I have a usb printer (HP officejet 100 mobile printer l411) pluged into my linux laptop with the ip of 192.168.0.11. I hooked it up with cups and seleted share and the cups printer name is HP Officejet 100 Mobile Printer L411. How do I get windows 8 to connect to this printer? It doesnt matter if i use cups or another service however we can get it to work. | 00:49 |
| aluchko | the ubuntu grub setup could find the fedora images whether they were in the boot partition of the fedora volume | 00:49 |
| Bashing-om | aluchko: OK, last system installed controls the booting process. | 00:50 |
| daftykins | basketball: you're saying a USB printer has an IP address... bit confusing. | 00:50 |
| aluchko | Bashing-om, at some point fedora started installing to the logical volume as well so there were ubuntu kernels in the ubuntu lv, fedora kernels in the fedora partition, and old fedora kernels in the boot partition | 00:50 |
| daftykins | basketball: oh the laptop has the IP i get it :) | 00:51 |
| basketball | daftykins, no that is my laptops | 00:51 |
| daftykins | basketball: so you've installed and configured samba? | 00:51 |
| basketball | no | 00:51 |
| === general_failure is now known as Guest23565 | ||
| daftykins | which ubuntu is this? | 00:51 |
| basketball | 14.04 | 00:51 |
| aluchko | the only thing I'm wondering now, since /boot is now the boot partition then where are all the files in the /boot folder of the actual ubuntu logical volume??? | 00:52 |
| daftykins | basketball: this is pretty close: http://www.unixmen.com/sharing-printer-on-ubuntu-linux-with-windows/ | 00:53 |
| daftykins | basketball: the "reboot samba" line is wrong though | 00:53 |
| basketball | daftykins, do i make it look just like that | 00:54 |
| aluchko | dagnamit, the whole reason I upgraded is so I could have a lyx version as new as the one on my f20 machine | 00:54 |
| aluchko | I still can't edit it because the 14.04 lyx version is too old | 00:54 |
| Bashing-om | aluchko: When booted from ubuntu, what returns from -> ls -la /boot <- . | 00:54 |
| daftykins | basketball: yes... keep a backup copy of the original though, so before you start run "sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.original | 00:54 |
| basketball | daftykins, my printcup name is printcap name = /etc/printcap | 00:55 |
| basketball | do i need to change it | 00:55 |
| derrick13 | hi all, i am using 12.04 ubuntu on the udoo, is there a way to use all newer packages instead of the older ones | 00:55 |
| daftykins | basketball: i have no idea what that parameter means. | 00:55 |
| basketball | should i just change it | 00:55 |
| aluchko | Bashing-om, oh it's the files from the boot partition, I just don't know what happened to the files from the volumes native boot folder :) | 00:55 |
| daftykins | derrick13: "udoo" ? | 00:55 |
| daftykins | basketball: you are welcome to try anything you think seems right, it can all be changed back again. | 00:56 |
| derrick13 | raspberry pi on steroids | 00:56 |
| basketball | daftykins, that command "sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.original doesnt work | 00:56 |
| daftykins | basketball: it should. what does it say? | 00:56 |
| basketball | it give me a a line with > and a blinking _ | 00:56 |
| whitepowder | Alternatively what are the oldest kernels could go back to on 14.04? | 00:56 |
| daftykins | basketball: you need to have installed samba first... | 00:56 |
| basketball | daftykins, i did | 00:56 |
| basketball | and i have that file | 00:57 |
| daftykins | basketball: did you include the first " by accident or something? | 00:57 |
| whitepowder | 3.13.x i cant build a driver i *absolutely* need | 00:57 |
| basketball | daftykins, yes :) | 00:57 |
| daftykins | ;) | 00:58 |
| daftykins | i forgot the second one, so we're even! | 00:58 |
| derrick13 | can i use change the /etc/apt/sources.list file and change precise to tasty? Will that break anything | 00:58 |
| Bashing-om | aluchko: Sorry, I do not follow "volumes native boot folder" , ya mean the initial install of Fedora ? | 00:59 |
| Ben64 | derrick13: that will break everything | 00:59 |
| aluchko | derrick13, you can do that but not update-manager? | 00:59 |
| whitepowder | Any news on tw68-v2 driver (for techwell tw6804 capture chip) on 3.13.x? Running ubuntu 14.04 presently but about to reinstall 12.10 i guess I *absolutely* have to have this driver working | 00:59 |
| daftykins | derrick13: the pi is not supported | 00:59 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: 12.10 is EOL | 01:00 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: this isn't an official place to ask about driver support | 01:00 |
| derrick13 | daftykins: I am using udooubuntu, which is the ubuntu version for the udoo. It is based on precise, which has old packages. | 01:00 |
| aluchko | Bashing-om, nah. So both the fedora and ubuntu logical volumes have a folder called /boot that they stuffed kernels in, but now /boot is a folder that points to the actual boot partition, so I'm just curious what happened to the previous directory that used that name | 01:01 |
| basketball | daftykins, how do i renboot samba | 01:01 |
| whitepowder | daftykins: And thats a problem why? At least my hardware will work.... | 01:01 |
| daftykins | derrick13: indeed and i'm saying that that makes it unsupported i'm afraid. | 01:01 |
| Ben64 | derrick13: we only support official ubuntu releases, udooubuntu isn't one | 01:01 |
| daftykins | basketball: sudo service smbd restart | 01:01 |
| derrick13 | ok, thanks | 01:01 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: you'd be better off going back to 12.04 which *is* supported still, due to being an LTS release | 01:01 |
| basketball | daftykins, ok and what happens if windows doesnt find it automatically | 01:02 |
| daftykins | basketball: that would be Windows support. | 01:03 |
| daftykins | basketball: do you know how to add a printer in Windows? go nuts. | 01:03 |
| aluchko | derrick13, it's not trivial to port the release to a new platform, sounds like they're still working on it http://www.udoo.org/forum/ubuntu-lts-t1316.html | 01:03 |
| whitepowder | daftykins: Fair enough. My big problem with my 12.10 install was that sound over hdmi suddenly quit working. It works good on 14.4 but.. No video capture :( | 01:04 |
| Ben64 | whitepowder: drivers don't often disappear from the kernel | 01:05 |
| basketball | daftykins, do i need to join the windows workgroup or something | 01:05 |
| pooltable | help installed minitube but it keep crashing any other like programs to download from youtube? | 01:05 |
| whitepowder | Ben64: its unfortunately not in the tree. If it was, it'd stay up to date in terms of kernel interfaces | 01:05 |
| daftykins | basketball: did you even try it yet? | 01:06 |
| derrick13 | aluchko: thanks, maybe soon then | 01:06 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: what do you mean video capture? | 01:06 |
| basketball | daftykins, how do i join it | 01:06 |
| daftykins | capture with what | 01:06 |
| Ben64 | whitepowder: how did you determine this | 01:06 |
| daftykins | basketball: i'm talking about adding the printer | 01:06 |
| basketball | daftykins, yes and it wasnt listed | 01:06 |
| whitepowder | derrick13: dvr stuff. have a chinese card with 8x techwell tw6804 (bt878 wannabes) | 01:06 |
| whitepowder | Ben64: Until a while back (say 12.x) there was a supported driver | 01:07 |
| derrick13 | whitepowder, home automation development goals for the udoo | 01:08 |
| whitepowder | derrick13: wtf is a udoo? | 01:08 |
| derrick13 | minicomputer and electronic prototype platform | 01:08 |
| daftykins | basketball: you know, when i try something and i'm explaining to someone what i see, i tend to use quite a few words and pictures where possible | 01:09 |
| whitepowder | derrick13: I use spook and motion to capture/stream/record security cameras because zoneminder ate way too much cpu. But this is a quad core machine, since we do 20fps on 8 cameras | 01:09 |
| basketball | daftykins, what else do you need to know | 01:09 |
| whitepowder | Wonder if a 3.2.x kernel could be built on 14.04 | 01:09 |
| derrick13 | udoo quad is quad core also | 01:10 |
| pooltable | got splayer to work thanks | 01:10 |
| daftykins | basketball: so what were the steps on attempting to add the printer... | 01:10 |
| whitepowder | derrick13: Arm or x86_64? | 01:10 |
| derrick13 | arm | 01:10 |
| basketball | daftykins, i go to control panne devices and printers | 01:11 |
| basketball | daftykins, add a printer | 01:11 |
| whitepowder | quad core arm would choke and die dealing with this much video im fairly certain. I run quad 3.4ghz and sit around 60% CPU at peak, but either way looks like gotta track down a 12.04 iso | 01:11 |
| basketball | daftykins, it searches for availabkle printers and doesnt see the shared one | 01:11 |
| derrick13 | i agree | 01:11 |
| derrick13 | http://www.udoo.org/features/ | 01:11 |
| daftykins | derrick13: sorry but that's off topic for this channel | 01:12 |
| derrick13 | udoo has 12.04 iso available, i just wanted to use newer 14.04 packages | 01:12 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: cdimage.ubuntu.com or releases.ubuntu.com | 01:12 |
| derrick13 | daftykins: ok | 01:12 |
| aledzadza | how do i can for wireless ap's in command line? | 01:13 |
| aledzadza | scan | 01:13 |
| daftykins | aledzadza: iwlist scan, i think | 01:14 |
| whitepowder | just wondering if a better option is to try to get 3.2.x kernel running on 14.04 -- Not too sure with udev/upstart/all that madness thats come around in the last decade since i compiled a kernel by hand :P | 01:14 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: no, trying to go back with a kernel = massive breakage, then nobody would ever help you again with any issue | 01:15 |
| whitepowder | daftykins: Figured. Yet another reason to dislike upstart/udev/all that nonsense :( | 01:15 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: so anyway give 12.04 a whirl, since it's still supported - and beyond that, try to find somewhere relevant to your device, else don't buy cheap again? ;) | 01:16 |
| Cuken | sorry one more question all, im settupg LVM for the first time and my /dev/sda1/ show the system as GPT | 01:17 |
| Cuken | do i need to change it to an LVM to get it to work? | 01:17 |

| Harris_He | I logout with the "Save the session", but I can login anymore, it just show the login window time and times again. Xubuntu 14.04 LTS Xfce4. How should I do to login my computer? THX | 01:19 |
| whitepowder | daftykins: $80 vs $400 is a bit of a difference. | 01:20 |
| tony_ | can someone help with installing an nvidia driver? im having a hell of a time figure it out | 01:22 |
| daftykins | whitepowder: was the $400 worth the time spent messing with Linux support? :) | 01:24 |
| Bashing-om | tony_: What have you done to this time, that now must be undone before we can procedd to install any driver ? | 01:25 |
| Bashing-om | proceed* | 01:25 |
| tony_ | well im on a fresh install of xubuntu 14.04, so havent broke anything yet :) | 01:25 |
| whitepowder | daftykins: Considering its worked for years now until going to 14.04? Absolutely. | 01:25 |
| tony_ | ive installed the nvidia stuff from the software center and once i reboot all i get is a blank screen | 01:26 |
| tony_ | ive got the driver downloaded from nvidias site | 01:26 |
| tony_ | when i go to run that the script tells me i need to shut down X server | 01:27 |
| tony_ | when i go into the terminal to shut down X server i get the same result. a blank screen | 01:27 |
| Bashing-om | tony_: So we are looking at a fresh install, nothing attempted to change the default driver ? -> have you looked at what "Additional Drivers" recommends ? | 01:27 |
| daftykins | sounds like an nvidia optimus system | 01:27 |
| tony_ | ill check the additional drivers now. no i havent done anything yet | 01:27 |
| tony_ | additional drivers doesnt list anything | 01:28 |
| tony_ | none are available | 01:29 |
| daftykins | it would normally offer nvidia if you had nvidia hardware | 01:29 |
| tony_ | well its a pretty new nvidia 750 ti | 01:29 |
| daftykins | tony_: in Linux land, or certainly in ubuntu land, you do not download drivers like Windows | 01:29 |
| Bashing-om | daftykins: -> tony_ Always a good idea to look and see what we are working wqith ( HUH ?) .. tony_ -> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 vga <- . | 01:29 |
| tony_ | so do lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 vga in a terminal ? | 01:30 |
| Bashing-om | tony_: Last I looked ( a couple of months ??) The repositories had not caught up to that bleeding edge graphics card, Not sure what the status of the open source driver is .. lemme go look. | 01:31 |
| tony_ | http://pastebin.com/gQ2dRhVS | 01:31 |
| tony_ | thats whats list in the terminal | 01:31 |
| daftykins | yip that's a 750 Ti alrighty then | 01:32 |
| Bashing-om | tony_: lookin at gQ2dRhVS. | 01:32 |
| dimitry7 | Hey guys, which software would you recommend to me to Fully wipe a disk of a compromised server? | 01:32 |
| tony_ | bashing is that a file or something ? | 01:32 |
| tony_ | ive tried "nvidia current" in software center but once i reboot all i get is a blank screen | 01:33 |
| barlie | dimitry7, What makes you think you need to do more than reinstall? | 01:33 |
| daftykins | dimitry7: 'dd' | 01:33 |
| dimitry7 | barlie, idk, probablly an inserted malware into the boot sector | 01:34 |
| barlie | dimitry7, Make a new partition table, I doubt that is the case, you can 0 out just the mbr | 01:35 |
| daftykins | dimitry7: how big is the disk? | 01:36 |
| dimitry7 | barlie, i just reinstalled it normally | 01:36 |
| dimitry7 | 250 G | 01:36 |
| barlie | dimitry7, I assume boot sector is the mbr here. | 01:36 |
| daftykins | won't take long to dd zero fill a 250GB drive. | 01:36 |
| barlie | dimitry7, This was a linux server? | 01:37 |
| dimitry7 | barlie, yes, Debian | 01:37 |
| dimitry7 | barlie, yes | 01:37 |
| Conna | o.O | 01:37 |
| barlie | dimitry7, You might ask #debian, not much actual malware in linux, more likely a rootkit | 01:38 |
| dimitry7 | barlie, yes a rootkit | 01:38 |
| dimitry7 | I am really afraid of those shits, have hit me 4 times now! | 01:39 |
| histo | dimitry7: did you format? | 01:39 |
| barlie | dimitry7, Never had the pleasure myself, if you keep getting hit you are not setting it up right I guess, I would not know anything in this area. | 01:39 |
| Bashing-om | tony_: Still appears a driver for your card has not made it to the repos to this time -> http://askubuntu.com/questions/425140/unable-toboot-with-nvidia-gtx-750-ti-even-with-latest-beta-drivers <- I like the the ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa option best. | 01:40 |
| dimitry7 | histo, I used Gparted and deleted the partitions. Then made a normal debian installation creating a new partition table | 01:41 |
| Lorcatar | Should I use default jdk or gcj for compiling java | 01:41 |
| blade57 | hi all | 01:43 |
| blade57 | can i update from a usb drive | 01:43 |
| barlie | blade57, update what? | 01:44 |
| barlie | or is this upgrade a release? | 01:44 |
| daftykins | blade57: do you mean, use the flash drive as a repo of packages to update with? | 01:45 |
| === eric is now known as Guest76081 | ||
| === jibran|Zzz is now known as jibran | ||
| barlie | dimitry7, So why are you here rather than #debian ? | 01:48 |
| barlie | or ##linux | 01:48 |
| aledzadza | why cant i update zentyal !??! | 01:48 |
| aledzadza | im gettingt abit frustrated | 01:49 |
| tony_ | so anyone here with experience with installing nvidia drivers? | 01:52 |
| barlie | tony_, Many, share the problem and your hardware on the channel. | 01:53 |
| tony_ | did a little while ago | 01:54 |
| tony_ | i go to install nvidia driver form their website but it says i have to stop X server | 01:54 |
| infinmed | Hi guys I'm trying to install flash plugin for chromium in xubuntu and when I cp libflashplugin.so to /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins it still doesn't show up when i start chromium and do about:plugins; any idea? | 01:54 |
| tony_ | i found the command on google to stop the x server but all i get is a blank screen after that | 01:55 |
| Ben64 | tony_: don't install the drivers from nvidia's website | 01:55 |
| histo | !nvidia | tony_ | 01:55 |
| ubottu | tony_: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 01:55 |
| tony_ | ive also tried a couple drivers in software center for nvidia but after they install and i reboot, im left at a blank screen again | 01:55 |
| histo | tony_: use the hardware drivers thing in the dash to install the drivers | 01:56 |
| barlie | tony_, people come and go always just do as I suggested if you want help. | 01:56 |
| daftykins | tony_: so you need to switch to a TTY to carry on the install... so you'd hit ctrl+alt+f1 | 01:56 |
| daftykins | Ben64: do they not have support for the 750 Ti yet? | 01:57 |
| aledzadza | how come my zentyal objects always fails to install? | 01:57 |
| Ben64 | daftykins: need at least 334.21 for 750ti support | 01:57 |
| tony_ | so doing ctrl+alt+f1, that will shut down the x server thing? | 01:57 |
| Ben64 | tony_: once again, don't install from nvidia's website | 01:57 |
| barlie | tony_, Just give you a tty | 01:58 |
| tony_ | where is this dash thing ? | 01:58 |
| daftykins | Ben64: if he can't use it any other way what other option is there 0o | 01:58 |
| barlie | no shutdown tony_ | 01:58 |
| Ben64 | daftykins: a ppa | 01:58 |
| barlie | tony_ Dash is the search top button in left panel or the windows key. | 01:58 |
| tony_ | what do i put in the search box? | 01:59 |
| daftykins | tony_: i can understand Ben64's idea - if you install manually from nvidia's site, every time you get a new kernel via updates to ubuntu, it may break and require reinstalling | 02:00 |
| barlie | tony_, Whatever you are looking for, it has limitations. | 02:00 |
| tony_ | so if i dont install the drivers from nvidias website? and none of the nvidia stuff works in software center, then what? | 02:00 |
| Ben64 | tony_: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa | 02:01 |
| tony_ | k ill look | 02:01 |
| micros | hello. i am running apt-get install vsftp but getting a 403 Forbidden error. any ideas? | 02:01 |

| acanthus | hey I'm ipv6 capable, have an address thats routable etc, my resolver despite having "nameserver 2607:f2f8:a2c4::1" still gets ipv4 addresses by default how do I change this | 02:05 |
| acanthus | my bind server is capable of giving me aaaa records but my resolver doesn't request them, it requests a and is like "k I did it right" but no | 02:06 |
| acanthus | nevermind I think I found something http://askubuntu.com/questions/32298/prefer-a-ipv4-dns-lookups-before-aaaaipv6-lookups | 02:07 |
| acanthus | except this is the opposite problem I'm having | 02:07 |
| aledzadza | how come my zentyl objects always fail to install? using apt-get | 02:08 |
| dauntl3ss | hey guys, I have an ubuntu machine connected to the internet via my laptop (ethernet cable to laptop + laptop wifi) because I have no moniter cable. I'm trying to SSH into the machine via putty, is there anyway to know what the IP of that machine would be ? (internal IP) I can't get into my router | 02:08 |
| aledzadza | dauntl3ss: check your router settings | 02:09 |
| dauntl3ss | my laptop lists 2 different internal addresses 1 is the normal one -- 192.168.1.10 and but the LAN connection says 192.168.137.1 | 02:09 |
| dauntl3ss | aledzadza, can't get into my router right now | 02:09 |
| dauntl3ss | I'm at my dad's house, he's sleeping and I don't know the PW | 02:11 |
| daftykins | acanthus: zentyal? that's not ubuntu. | 02:11 |
| aledzadza | dauntl3ss: just try anything from 192.168.0.1-10 ??? | 02:12 |
| dauntl3ss | aledzadza, I have been, no luck :( | 02:12 |
| dauntl3ss | that's why I'm here asking :) | 02:12 |
| dauntl3ss | if there's a way to determine that since my connection is going thruogh my laptop | 02:12 |
| Ben64 | dauntl3ss: could you explain your network setup better | 02:13 |
| aledzadza | åöäö | 02:13 |
| aledzadza | sorry | 02:14 |
| dauntl3ss | Ben64, sure sorry. I have a wireless router. I have a laptop that is connected to it. My PC which is ubuntu server is plugged into my laptops LAN port. and my laptop is sharing my WIFI connection to the ubuntu server. | 02:14 |
| newvirus | wifi free internet | 02:15 |
| Ben64 | dauntl3ss: that is very strange | 02:15 |
| micros | anyone know why apt-get install vsftpd might return a 403 forbidden error? | 02:16 |
| daftykins | aledzadza: zentyal? that's not ubuntu. | 02:16 |
| Ben64 | micros: the repo is down? | 02:16 |
| dauntl3ss | Ben64, well the house is 2 story, and the port on the wall that goes downstairs is broken, so the only other choice is WIFI and since that PC doesn't have a wireless card, I figured I can share it with my laptop | 02:16 |
| barlie | micros, Run a regular apt-get update and pastebin it. | 02:17 |
| dauntl3ss | I did an IP config ALL and I got 192.168.137.1(Preferred) for the LAN port on the laptop. does that mean the ubuntu is sharing that IP? | 02:17 |
| aledzadza | daftykins: what should i use then? lol | 02:17 |
| daftykins | aledzadza: not this channel... since it's not your OS? | 02:17 |
| daftykins | aledzadza: perhaps to top off your evening you could go ask for some BSD support in #windows | 02:18 |
| micros | barlie - i did, no errors | 02:18 |
| Ben64 | daftykins: zentyal isn't a distro... | 02:18 |
| grimeton | if you ask for network stuff, you'll get answers | 02:18 |
| grimeton | microsoft copied the basic network stack from bsd | 02:18 |
| micros | i am incorrect. | 02:18 |
| micros | forgot sudo... 1 sec | 02:18 |

| blade57 | sorry for the delay i had my wife trying to talk to me when started this | 02:20 |
| grimeton | daftykins: look into clearos | 02:20 |
| daftykins | oh wait... yes it is! | 02:20 |
| micros | hmm... but of course this is what the image on the EC2 happens to be... would be alot of work to update it, right? | 02:20 |
| daftykins | grimeton: why are you talking to me about things, i do not have a question, i'm a helper, not a helpee | 02:20 |

| micros | can anyone recommend a replacement? | 02:22 |
| Ben64 | micros: step 1 is get a supported version of ubuntu | 02:22 |
| kostkon | micros, 14.04 | 02:22 |
| kostkon | micros, supported until 2019 | 02:22 |

| SonikkuAmerica | micros: If you're really concerned about anonymity and privacy Ubuntu isn't exactly the distro you'd wanna use... | 02:25 |
| blade57 | barlie yea but i don't like my wifi card and i have to use a cable to get on line | 02:25 |

| erratic | I say its no thanks to the lamers who bitched about the default behavior now I'll bet some idiot has hardcoded the shit to only get a records | 02:31 |
| blade57 | what i don't understand is it works intell i update my drivers then it goes down and some time the wired connection don't work ether | 02:32 |
| barlie | blade57, We wont either without the hardware info to start with. | 02:32 |
| tonyt | said screw it and disabled the nvidia card and am jsut using the onboard intel video for now | 02:33 |

| histo | Smrtz|nix: if you ifup eth0 does it then show an IP? | 03:40 |
| genii | Smrtz|nix: I think you need something more like: auto eth0 by itself. Then on NEXT line the iface eth0 inet static | 03:40 |
| Smrtz|nix | histo: nope. | 03:40 |
| Smrtz|nix | genii: let me try that... | 03:41 |
| histo | Smrtz|nix: yeah sorry auto eth0 above all the iface | 03:41 |

| arog | hi | 03:56 |
| arog | can someone help me setup NFS please? | 03:57 |

| arog | no work | 04:01 |
| arog | even nfs://ip | 04:01 |
| arog | oh hey! i dont have access that's good | 04:02 |
| arog | time to figure out that now | 04:02 |
| histo | arog: ont he nfs server expoortfs -rav | 04:03 |
| Paulus68 | lspci |grep vga no output in terminal lshw -C video gives this output http://pastebin.com/PN994z5P monitor is gonna be used as dual screen primary screen is also samsung | 04:03 |
| histo | arog: don't have access to what? | 04:04 |
| arog | on my mac when i try connecting to nfs://server | 04:04 |
| genii | Random thingy: If a service is already started by upstart it has a particular pid associated to being run from upstart. So then if you try to start the same daemon, say, by running it's /etc/init.d script manually, it will cause issues. | 04:04 |
| arog | it says: expoortfs -rav | 04:04 |
| arog | oops | 04:04 |
| arog | You do not have permission to access this server. | 04:04 |
| genii | I'll just leave that out there and go back to coffee. | 04:05 |
| histo | arog: fix your perms then and reexport with the command above | 04:06 |
| arog | yea im trying to figure out where that is stored ;) | 04:07 |
| histo | arog: ini your exports file | 04:07 |
| arog | is samba easier to setup | 04:10 |
| histo | arog: your ip addressing in there is wrong | 04:10 |
| histo | arog: just try with * inplace of the ip addresses to test | 04:10 |
| histo | arog: 192.168.1.0/24 would be more appropriate | 04:11 |
| arog | tried that too | 04:12 |
| arog | -- /home/user/media 192.168.1.*/24(ro,sync,no_subtree_check) | 04:12 |
| arog | -- /home/user/media 192.168.1.0/24(ro,sync,no_subtree_check) | 04:12 |
| histo | arog: chnage it to: /home/user/media *(ro,insecure) then save and exportfs -a | 04:12 |
| genii | arog: If I may suggest: Put a space or tab after the netmaksk and before the left parenthesis. Also, instead of trying to directly call the /etc/init.d script, use instead something more like sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart | 04:13 |
| histo | genii: that doesn't matter | 04:13 |
| arog | what does exportfs -a do? | 04:13 |
| arog | same thing | 04:14 |
| arog | ill look at this later | 04:14 |
| arog | gotta bounce | 04:14 |
| genii | histo: The space/tab may not matter. But after you install nfs-kernel-server, upstart runs it. Which means that it has a pis in /run or /var/run specific to being run from upstart. So if you directly call the old sysvinit script, it won't do much. | 04:14 |
| genii | pis->pid | 04:15 |
| histo | arog: sorry exportfs -rav will reexport all directories in /etc/exports | 04:15 |
| histo | genii: the init script is an alias | 04:15 |
| genii | histo: upstart runs all sysvinit stuff through it's own job called rc-sysinit.conf | 04:16 |
| genii | ( which pre-empts running it from the init.d ) | 04:16 |

ANy suggestions? | 05:05 |
| introom | lotuspsychje: thanks. will look that page. | 05:05 |
| bookman | I know that Ubuntu is responding because it responds to the Power button and displays the shutdown menu. I am stuck at the login screen and am unable to enter my login password due to unresponsiveness of keyboard and mouse | 05:06 |
| lotuspsychje | bookman: did you set usb support enabled in bios? | 05:07 |

| Bashing-om | bookman: -> lotuspsychje // Maybe, no usb driver for the keyboard/mouse in the kernel, have you got a ps/2 keyboard lying about to try ? | 05:16 |
| [[thufir]] | micky: thx | 05:16 |
| bookman | Unfortunately I do not have a PS/2 keyboard or mouse | 05:17 |
| lotuspsychje | Bashing-om: that might possible, as he set bios to usb mouse/keyboard support | 05:17 |
| zgeex | hmm | 05:17 |
| Sunstream | Hello, I need to know the easiest way to make a LiveUSB | 05:18 |
| zgeex | www.pendrivelinux.com | 05:18 |
| Sunstream | Or to run Ubuntu on the stick as neded | 05:18 |
| Sunstream | Oh go there Okay | 05:18 |
| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: -> bookman ;: also check that plug N play is set in bios. | 05:19 |
| zgeex | Sun: yes it's very helpful | 05:19 |
| Sunstream | Do I need to make the image into a disk first? | 05:19 |
| bookman | <Bashing-om>: The keyboard works fine with Ubuntu 12.04 up till 14.04 | 05:19 |
| zgeex | Sun: you can download an image for most distros and use that | 05:20 |
| bookman | The plug and play option is set | 05:20 |
| bookman | the motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H model | 05:21 |
| zgeex | book: did you try a different keyboard? Just to see if they somehow broke the driver for it in 14.04? | 05:21 |
| Sunstream | I got Ubu 14.04 deom the main site and | 05:21 |
| bookman | I will give it a try | 05:21 |
| Sunstream | I just want to run Ubuntu from the USB drive only I got a 16GB pendrive I do not want to mess up my Windows install | 05:22 |
| Bashing-om | bookman: Something is going on within the kernel. Bios has a driver for keyboard, grub has it's own driver, then grub hands off to the kernel, the kernel should have a driver for the keyboard. As it is not working -> a setting in bios or a ps/2 keyboard is all I can come up with. | 05:23 |
| zgeex | Sun: you should be able to get a live persistent on a 16 gb usb, but if you had a larger one it would be better | 05:23 |
| Beldar | Sunstream I would do a full install on a 16 gig usb. | 05:23 |
| Sunstream | Thats my intention | 05:24 |
| zgeex | http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows | 05:24 |
| Beldar | "excellent" Mr. Burns | 05:24 |
| Sunstream | I did not mean to make a liveusb I just wanted to install it without byorking my NT install | 05:24 |
| zgeex | http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows | 05:25 |
| zgeex | for you Sun | 05:25 |
| awpti | I hate when I Bjork my other OS installs. | 05:25 |
| zgeex | If you make a live usb you will be running the system off the usb stick and it will not mess with the NT system. | 05:25 |
| === badon_ is now known as badon | ||
| Beldar | Sunstream, You just need a bootable dvd or another usb to do a full install. | 05:26 |
| Sunstream | incidently zgeex i was gonna click that on pendive | 05:26 |
| bookman | Hi guys. Looks like the other keyboard does not work either | 05:27 |
| zgeex | well crud | 05:27 |
| zgeex | does that one fail at GRUB? | 05:27 |
| bookman | No | 05:28 |
| Beldar | bookman, Did you get to the live desktop when you installed? | 05:28 |
| bookman | yes the keyboard works in live | 05:28 |
| bookman | but after installation it does not | 05:28 |
| bookman | and zgeex the new keyboard works in GRUB like the old one | 05:28 |
| Beldar | bookman, note we preface with nicks here, the mouse worked live? | 05:28 |
| Sunstream | My first dive into the world of Linux was with Ubuntu 7.x live CD thougth it was ok put UBU on a PS3 loved it now I want to run UBU from a pen drive and now I can so I can keep my NT install safe. | 05:28 |
| bookman | Beldar: Yes the mouse worked on live | 05:29 |
| bookman | Beldar: my first time typing in IRC | 05:29 |
| Sunstream | Is flash and Java hard to install? | 05:29 |
| zgeex | Book: I'd hate to say it but I'd download a different image and reinstall and see if that fixes the issue since the other OS's work | 05:30 |
| Beldar | bookman, Chances are you can get it to work, however you might try another derivative that has more drivers built in and available as a test. | 05:30 |
| bookman | zgeex: Beldar: Looks like this is a bug, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1315073 found it after a lot of googlefu | 05:31 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1315073 in linux (Ubuntu) "Fresh Ubuntu 64-bit install boots with no keyboard, mouse, or network" [High,Triaged] | 05:31 |
| zgeex | wow | 05:32 |
| palasso | Is there a Canonical Partners Repo for 14.04 or has it been discontinued? | 05:32 |
| Beldar | bookman, No real info in that bug and only similar symptoms, not sure I would take it to seriously, very little posts. | 05:32 |
| palasso | I don't see any updates for Trusty here: http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/partner/ | 05:32 |
| Beldar | palasso, It is in your sources.list | 05:33 |
| palasso | Beldar: yes but I don't see any software in it | 05:33 |
| Sunstream | Is it important to change anything to do with step 4 (Set Presistant File Size for storing changes)? | 05:34 |
| Beldar | palasso, It has stuff in there not sure why you are looking, it has specific stuff. | 05:34 |
| zgeex | Sun: use the maximum space | 05:35 |
| palasso | Beldar: e.g. no adobe reader or skype | 05:35 |
| Sunstream | Its optional it says so if I set it to 0 it will not be good? | 05:36 |
| Beldar | palasso, the reader had a different name acroread and I don't think it is around, there is another independent repo skype may be there. | 05:36 |
| Sunstream | It maxes out at 4089MB so I will max it | 05:36 |
| Beldar | palasso, Open both run a update and run a pat-get on skype | 05:37 |
| zgeex | Sun: if you want to use the stick as the main then you need to max it out to give room for future software install | 05:37 |
| Beldar | apt-get* | 05:37 |
| Sunstream | Okay | 05:38 |
| whitepowder | So i've got 12.04 installed, and my hdmi audio (which works in 14.04) is broken. does kvm do iovirt these days? | 05:39 |
| === no_mu is now known as Nothing_Much | ||
| Beldar | Sunstream, That is not a full install, this in lieu of a full install using the usb? | 05:39 |
| bookman | Beldar: zgeex: I think I will try to chroot into my installation from live USB and do a apt update,upgrade and see if it works.. | 05:40 |
| zgeex | good luck | 05:41 |
| Bashing-om | bookman: Good thought . | 05:41 |
| Beldar | bookman, Go for it, I have to wonder if it just may be a bad install, is this the only try? Have you checked the sum on the install media? | 05:41 |
| Sunstream | I appricate the help | 05:42 |
| bookman | Beldar: Yes I have checked the md5 and reinstalled a couple of times | 05:42 |
| Beldar | bookman, Good I missed that if it was stated. | 05:43 |

| palasso | Beldar: I just confirmed. There is 0 software on the canonical partners repo for 14.04 so there is not reason to add that repo to my system. Obviously it's been discontinued. | 05:46 |
| Beldar | palasso, Seems strange it is part of install still how did you confirm this? | 05:46 |

| Ben64 | Sunstream: usb drives aren't very fast | 05:56 |
| Capprentice | Im using Ubuntu 14.04, Vmware Player 10 ! | 05:56 |
| Ben64 | Capprentice: vmware is not supported here, you'll have to consult the vmware documentation | 05:56 |
| Sunstream | or go to the vmware channels | 05:57 |
| Sunstream | Google/Bing can help | 05:57 |

| Capprentice | Ben64, Do you have any link to a guide which can help me here ? Im fedup of searching and searching ! I have been searching for 30 minuits ! All im getting is old Garbage. vmware-config.pl blah blah blah....which is obsolete and now does not exist in the version 10 installation. | 05:59 |
| Sunstream | Capperntice, you try to get on the VMWare's community site to find out? and if so you try to find a vmware irc channel | 05:59 |
| Capprentice | Thats a zombie land ! Sunstream ...I posted there before posting here :(((((( ! | 05:59 |
| Ben64 | then maybe its time to switch to virtualbox? | 06:00 |
| Sunstream | You try "Vmware 10" as part of the search term in the boolean to limit it to that version?? | 06:00 |
| Capprentice | I have tried that too :((( ! | 06:00 |
| Capprentice | Ben64, I already have VirtualBox. But if Just I could disable the Adapters, Vmware will work just fine for me. Vmware works beter with Distros like DamnSmallLinux or Slitaz.. I think .... :))) | 06:01 |

| LarsN | I've got a Lenovo IdeaPad Y510P that I'm trying to get Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop installed on but am running into a pretty significant problem. Specifically when the machine boots, the display remains purple without showing me anything. | 06:15 |
| LarsN | I do however hear the Ubuntu drums play which leads me to believe it's sitting at a login prompt somewhere. | 06:15 |
| Capprentice | LarsN, Do you had any old version of Ubuntu on it? | 06:15 |
| Capprentice | Like version 10 or 11.04? | 06:16 |
| LarsN | Capprentice: new laptop, was previously running Windows 7. | 06:16 |
| LarsN | to install it I had to use the nomodeset kernel flag. that seems to have zero effect now that it's installed (with or without just results in a purple screen) | 06:16 |
| Capprentice | Do you have onBoard Nvidia chips ? | 06:17 |
| Capprentice | It could be a driver ISSUE ! | 06:17 |
| LarsN | yes, it has a Geforce something or another onboard. | 06:17 |
| Capprentice | Then I suggest you to try the driver installation from a Rescue Console. | 06:18 |
| Capprentice | I think sudo apt-get install nvidia-current will download and install the latest drivers for you ! | 06:18 |
| LarsN | Capprentice: I'll give the rescue console a shot. | 06:18 |
| Capprentice | ok. | 06:19 |
| LarsN | It "should" be trying to use Neuveu (or whatever it is) | 06:19 |
| Capprentice | Check this LarsN - | 06:20 |
| Capprentice | http://www.noobslab.com/2012/10/install-latest-nvidia-drivers-in-ubuntu.html | 06:20 |
| LarsN | Capprentice: safe to assume x-swat has been kept up to date over the last ~ 2 years? | 06:21 |
| LarsN | (going by the date on that article :) ) | 06:22 |
| Capprentice | Is your Lappie is manufactured after 2013? | 06:22 |
| Capprentice | If its not, then I think Old drivers may perform better 1 | 06:22 |

| jerrt | so guys, I have ubuntu running inside virtualbox. Two network interfaces running. I want to get apach to serve on eth1, but I get nothing. eth1's IP can be ping'd from outside. ports.conf etc is all Listen 80 or *:80/443 | 06:24 |
| jerrt | any ideas? | 06:25 |
| Sunstream | yay | 06:26 |
| LarsN | jerrt: is apache starting? | 06:26 |
| Sunstream | Install done | 06:26 |
| [[thufir]] | am I doing this partition wrong? I want to format my mp3 player: http://pastebin.com/kKtmCWKG | 06:26 |

| jerrt | LarsN: Yup. no warnings or anything | 06:26 |
| Sunstream | now I am going to bootin | 06:26 |
| jerrt | apart from the usual hostname resolution thing | 06:27 |
| Sunstream | wish me lucj | 06:27 |
| LarsN | jerrt: and netstat shows it's listening on 80/443? | 06:27 |
| LarsN | either *: or 0.0.0.0: ? | 06:27 |
| jerrt | netstat -rn shows the two IPs | 06:27 |
| jerrt | with a .0 at the end | 06:28 |
| jerrt | isn't it supposed to show a mask? | 06:28 |
| dga | i'm trying to create per-user web directories so i added the line Include mods-available/userdir.conf to my /etc/apache2.conf but it's not working. is there anything else I have to do? | 06:28 |
| LarsN | jerrt: what's netstat -nlt show for port 80 && 443? | 06:29 |
| Kartagis | what's the Image Viewer binary is called? | 06:30 |
| Kartagis | ubuntu default that is | 06:30 |
| jerrt | LarsN: shows :::80 and :::443. proto tcp6. | 06:30 |
| jerrt | no entry for tcp. | 06:30 |
| LarsN | jerrt: check the apache2 config for the "Listen" directive. | 06:31 |
| LarsN | while you do that I'm going to log into another machine and check :) | 06:31 |
| jerrt | LarsN: just went through all the confs, no mention of Listen except in ports.conf, and it just says Listen 80 | 06:32 |
| jerrt | and a Listen 443 inside a conditional | 06:33 |
| LarsN | jerrt: adjust that.... take a look at /etc/apache2/ports.conf. Does the line above the listen have "NameVirtualHost *:80" | 06:33 |
| LarsN | jerrt: I was on a CentOS machine when I had you check the httpd.conf/apache2.conf, sorry about that :) | 06:34 |
| dga | hello, i'm trying to create per-user web directories so i added the line Include mods-available/userdir.conf to my apache2.conf file and restarted apache but it doesn't seem to work. is there something else i have to do? | 06:34 |
| jerrt | LarsN: nope. will try adding it. no worries, checked ports anyway :) | 06:34 |
| randabis | been years since I hung out in here... | 06:34 |
| LarsN | jerrt: if you want it only bound to the eth1 host.... replace the * with eth1's ip address. | 06:34 |
| LarsN | jerrt: that "SHOULD" get it listening in the right places, although I'm a bit rusty on my apache. | 06:35 |
| jerrt | LarsN: tried, apache restarted saying "namevirtualhost has no effect, deprecated" etc, and no difference :/ | 06:37 |
| LarsN | jerrt: figures. soon they'll put me in a museum exhibit. | 06:37 |
| Kartagis | what's the Ubuntu default Image Viewer binary is called? | 06:38 |
| LarsN | jerrt: looks like the new method would be.... Listen 10.0.0.1:80 | 06:39 |
| LarsN | jerrt: assuming 10.0.0.1 was one of the interfaces.. | 06:39 |
| jerrt | LarsN: haha, happens. last time I did anything was on centOS too. | 06:39 |
| jerrt | I tried Listen ip:80 earlier, no dice | 06:40 |
| jerrt | can't figure out what it's up to | 06:40 |
| LarsN | jerrt: beyond that, you've got me. I remember having this problem in the past, but it was SeLinux's fault | 06:40 |
| Capprentice | Kartagis, eog ? | 06:40 |
| LarsN | which shouldn't be a problem on Ubuntu. | 06:40 |
| Capprentice | or may be Shotwell ! | 06:40 |
| LarsN | jerrt: you don't also have nginx, or lighttpd running do you? | 06:40 |
| jerrt | nope | 06:41 |
| jerrt | gah, looks like I'll have to go back to constantly changing the network settings each time I switch between networks | 06:41 |
| LarsN | fun helpful tool finally ported to Ubuntu.... apt-get install sockstat. | 06:41 |
| Capprentice | I have soo many image viewers now...I cant remember. Few good are: Nomacs, XnView, Viewnor Kartagis | 06:41 |
| Kartagis | Capprentice: that was it, thank you :) | 06:41 |
| jerrt | LarsN: home is 192.168.x.x, work is 10.0.x.x. I used to just use a bridged adaptor on vbox and assign a static ip each time. | 06:42 |
| LarsN | jerrt: sudo sockstat -p 80 | 06:42 |
| LarsN | it's handy because it displays the package etc, not just the port bindings.. | 06:42 |
| jerrt | huh, no bindings | 06:42 |
| bookman | Beldar: It worked... The chroot and upgrade worked | 06:43 |
| Beldar | bookman, Good job. ;) | 06:43 |
| LarsN | jerrt: example.... root apache2 1952 tcp4 *:80 *:* LISTEN | 06:43 |
| jerrt | LarsN: yeah, there's nothing listed :D | 06:43 |
| jerrt | and apache is running | 06:44 |
| jerrt | well, the service is up | 06:44 |
| LarsN | that's weird... | 06:44 |
| bookman | Beldar: I think it might be the old kernel version but I am not sure how to document this bug | 06:44 |
| Beldar | me neither | 06:45 |
| LarsN | jerrt: ufw isn't preventing it from binding to port 80 is it? | 06:45 |
| LarsN | jerrt: ^ seems like something I should have asked earlier on :) | 06:45 |
| jerrt | what's ufw? | 06:46 |
| Capprentice | :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( | 06:46 |
| LarsN | "Uncomplicated FireWall" | 06:46 |
| jerrt | oh. sounds like something that might be messing things up. lemme check | 06:46 |
| LarsN | for testing only, do a: sudo service ufw stop | 06:46 |
| jerrt | also, it worked fine before I added eth1, btw... | 06:46 |
| LarsN | then, if it works...... adjust the rules. | 06:46 |
| aledzadza | What bnc server should i use? | 06:47 |
| jerrt | LarsN: nope, stopped it, retried sockstat, nothing bound | 06:47 |
| Capprentice | Which programming language has less learning overhead? Suppose if some one wants to develop a small Bike Racing game for Ubuntu, what technologies he/she needs to be familiar with ? | 06:47 |

| LarsN | fixing apache sounds easier than my stupid graphics card + uefi + secure boot woes :) | 06:48 |
| jerrt | hahaha, I'm glad I have none of that on my plate | 06:49 |
| jerrt | though this no bindings thing looks promising. to google, maybe | 06:50 |

| LarsN | Sunstream: "try ubuntu" is a live image | 06:58 |
| LarsN | Sunstream: "install ubuntu" does exactly what it says. | 06:59 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Is this the usb your going to use as you wander the world? | 06:59 |
| Sunstream | or if my NT install is first os it safe to install ubu? | 07:00 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Where are you planning to install with this boot? | 07:03 |
| Sunstream | no this usb is just for me to run linux without install it on my system afraid that i will byork my NT install | 07:03 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Then you choose try ubuntu. | 07:04 |
| Beldar | If you chose install it would just do it without you going through a set of guis | 07:04 |
| Beldar | sorry would not | 07:04 |
| Sunstream | so if i select install ubuntu alongside it will byork my NT? | 07:04 |
| Beldar | no | 07:04 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, no but you have no reason to hit install, but it would not automatically do that. | 07:04 |
| Sunstream | ok i want to really run this as a dual boot | 07:04 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, You would have to install to the HD for it to be technically a dual boot. | 07:04 |
| Sunstream | if i select install it will not mess up my windows install | 07:04 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Why would you hit install, you want to use the usb as a operating system? | 07:07 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, YOU would need another external HD or usb for an install, or the internal HD. | 07:07 |
| Sunstream | no actually i dont what i truly want to do is run Ubu as a 2nd os alongside windows | 07:07 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Can you clarify that last sentence? | 07:07 |
| Sunstream | ok what i want to do is install and use Ubuntu as my 2nd os meaning dual boot off harddrive | 07:08 |
| Sunstream | but i am uncomfortable that if i attempted it i will lose windows since windows is already inatalled | 07:09 |
| LarsN | Sunstream: then install along side "should" be fine, and "shouldn't" break windows. Provided there's enough free space. | 07:09 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, You would have to install it to the HD for that scenario, you just do not understand it seems what dual boot means. You sais earlier you wanted a full install on that usb, but yet loaded the iso to it. | 07:09 |
| Sunstream | i did this as a test | 07:10 |
| LarsN | Sunstream: if it has to resize partitions, all bets are off. Unless you've got an additional, fresh/clean/naked drive as Beldar is suggesting. | 07:10 |
| Sunstream | that was intentional | 07:10 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, a test of what? | 07:10 |
| Sunstream | if i like the look and feel | 07:10 |
| Sunstream | and i do | 07:10 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Ah, good then use the try ubuntu option. | 07:10 |
| Sunstream | which i have been for a while | 07:11 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Why don't you just install ubuntu to a virtual machine, you could have windows and ubuntu running at the same time | 07:11 |
| Sunstream | now i would like to use it as an alternative Operating system without losing windows. so what i am trying to find out is if i tried to install this now on the hdd will it kill my xp install | 07:14 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, You have to install it correctly. Do you have a image/clone of XP? | 07:15 |
| LarsN | Sunstream: do you have a second, unused drive in the XP machine? or could you easily add one? | 07:15 |
| Sunstream | no on the clone/image | 07:16 |
| Beldar | honestly running XP is a bad idea it is end of life | 07:16 |
| Sunstream | i know | 07:16 |
| Beldar | and hardly safe has not been for a long time | 07:17 |
| Sunstream | i shoukd say screw it and just change over | 07:17 |
| Sunstream | if the following is true i will chnage over | 07:17 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, I would get a supported windows release, I would never advise anyone to just switch over. | 07:18 |
| djapo | why is there no ubuntu for windows surface rt 2? | 07:18 |
| * LarsN gives up on this laptop for the night. | 07:18 | |
| Sunstream | does it fully support flash and java | 07:18 |
| Sunstream | i cant | 07:18 |
| Beldar | djapo, Ask Microsoft | 07:18 |
| LarsN | djapo: microsoft secure boot on ARM based systems is locked down. | 07:18 |
| LarsN | djapo: they opened the door for x86/x86_64, but left it closed on ARM platforms. | 07:19 |
| Sunstream | this laptop only has 512 megs ram and afaik cannot go up | 07:19 |
| Transfusion | flash has been deprecated, but it is still available for download (version 11.2), java, definitely, with sun java and openjdk | 07:19 |
| Beldar | Sunstream> does it fully support flash and java ubuntu yes | 07:19 |
| Sunstream | okay | 07:19 |
| SierraAR | Didnt flash drop support for linux? | 07:19 |
| Transfusion | ^ | 07:19 |
| djapo | so, i heard but is there a way to flash the boot loader from windows | 07:19 |
| Sunstream | does i plqy dvd video out of bo so to speak | 07:19 |
| Beldar | djapo, used to be wubi, not supported anymore. | 07:20 |
| Transfusion | if you download the restricted extras and a media player like VLC it will | 07:20 |
| Beldar | use nicks folks | 07:20 |
| Sunstream | well more along the lines does it support youtube | 07:20 |
| Transfusion | of course it does :) it's not a fisher price toy | 07:20 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, yes you can watch youtube | 07:21 |
| Sunstream | ok so i still have to download VLC which is fine | 07:21 |
| Transfusion | unless you have any windows-specific professional software you should be fine | 07:21 |
| Sunstream | ok does it support amazon video? | 07:21 |
| djapo | so if someone wrote a boot flasher that ran on rt, it would work? | 07:21 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, You don't have to have vlc to watch youtube. | 07:21 |
| Sunstream | no vlc for dvds | 07:21 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, lots of media players work bedsides vlc it is a codec issue is all, ubuntu has them. | 07:22 |
| Sunstream | ok | 07:22 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, What you should do is do a full install to a virtual machine and work with the channel and research till you understand. | 07:23 |
| Sunstream | then lets see with Wine i shoukd be fine. | 07:23 |
| Sunstream | i used ubuntu before | 07:23 |
| Sunstream | bu had issues wirh flash and java | 07:24 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, Than you are asking questions you should know. | 07:24 |
| Sunstream | then i will do the install | 07:24 |
| abhie2e | any guess on whats tho total size of the ubuntu 14.04 repos? i need to mirror it locally? | 07:24 |
| Beldar | Sunstream, If you value XP I would clone it first. | 07:24 |
| abhie2e | i need to know the size of 10.04 , 12.04 and 14.04 | 07:24 |
| === gnu is now known as Guest70240 | ||
| Sunstream | i dont | 07:25 |
| abhie2e | help please | 07:25 |
| Sunstream | it is because i cannot put any more ram in this system | 07:25 |
| Sunstream | okay | 07:25 |
| Transfusion | abhie2e: apt-mirror will show you something like " 68.6 GiB will be downloaded into archive." | 07:25 |
| Sunstream | i will go back into windows | 07:26 |
| randabis | hmm i was pinged or somethin' lol | 07:26 |
| Beldar | not sure how ram is relevant with ubuntu, Sunstream | 07:26 |
| gp5st1 | hello. I installed a fresh copy of windows 8 and then installed ubuntu. When I try to boot windows 8, I get a "error: no image found" message, and then get dumped back into grub | 07:26 |
| Sunstream | move the important files to my thumb drive | 07:26 |
| abhie2e | Transfusion, i need to know this before starting apt-mirror. i need to tell them how much vps size i need so that they can allocate it to me. i want it to know for centor and debian too. any generic way to know size of repos? | 07:26 |
| Sunstream | and do the install | 07:26 |
| randabis | sounds like you need to fix your bootloader | 07:26 |
| Beldar | !bootinfo | gp5st1 | 07:27 |
| ubottu | gp5st1: Boot info script is a useful script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). | 07:27 |
| gp5st1 | randabis: yeah, I would, but have no idea how | 07:27 |
| gp5st1 | thanks Beldar | 07:27 |
| Sunstream | as long as 512 megs runs smoothly (32 bit) i am fine | 07:27 |

| Beldar | Sunstream, 512 MB is not enough to run ubuntu, lubuntu would be more appropriate | 07:28 |

| tom___v | I seem to have hosed my .xauthority in Ubuntu 14.04 desktop, how do I login from the command line to delete it? | 07:28 |
| Sunstream | lubuntu? | 07:28 |
| randabis | did you manually partition or auto | 07:28 |
| Beldar | randabis, Do you know anything about uefi setups? | 07:29 |
| randabis | a little... | 07:29 |
| randabis | i have some asrock stuff with uefi | 07:29 |
| kaka | So few people | 07:29 |
| Beldar | randabis, than be careful here so far all I see is guessing, don't give advice that bricks there computer. | 07:29 |
| randabis | Yes, I agree | 07:29 |
| randabis | I'm trying to stay low key | 07:30 |

| Beldar | gp5st1, Very few people here know uefi completely, just be aware. | 07:37 |
| presonic | dj_ ask ur question | 07:38 |
| Sunstream_ | accordin to the system requirements i have plenty of room | 07:38 |

| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:38 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:38 |
| dj_ | thanks guys, So, when you install softwares in ubuntu, does it install in the \ partition or the \home partition? | 07:39 |
| jvaemape | jvaemape_123, hello | 07:39 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:39 |
| Beldar | dj_, A little of both depends on what ou install and how you install it. | 07:39 |
| Beldar | you* | 07:39 |
| Transfusion | dj_: somewhere under /usr/ , or /usr/local/ | 07:39 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:39 |
| Transfusion | if from apt | 07:39 |
| dj_ | I am new to ubuntu, I just installed the system today and assign 20gb for the \ partition and 70gb for the \home partition | 07:39 |
| Sunstream_ | okay | 07:40 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:40 |
| dj_ | I dont know if this is reasonable | 07:40 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:40 |
| presonic | dj_: that sounds fine. | 07:40 |
| Sunstream_ | i have good enough specs | 07:40 |
| dj_ | So when does it install in the \ | 07:40 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:40 |
| dj_ | and when in the \home? | 07:40 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:40 |
| djapo | is there a way to trick uefi locked boot loaders? say a signed kernel that loads an unsigned kernel? | 07:41 |
| Sunstream_ | i just want a os that runs smootly, and is protected | 07:41 |
| presonic | dj_: after you've finished install the distribution\ | 07:41 |
| presonic | installing* | 07:41 |
| presonic | you'll have 20 gig allocated to / and 70 to /home | 07:41 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:42 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:42 |
| dj_ | Yes presonic, for example, I am planning to install MATLAB, which is about 6gb. I don't know where it will go to | 07:43 |
| faudzan | hi ahmedaly | 07:43 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:43 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:44 |
| presonic | dj_: not familiar with that. if you're using apt-get it wont go to /home | 07:44 |
| Transfusion | dj_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB | 07:44 |
| Transfusion | the default is /usr/local/ | 07:44 |
| Transfusion | yeah, home is like your "My Documents" folder | 07:44 |
| Transfusion | configuration and dotfiles will be placed in dotfolders | 07:45 |
| SierraAR | I always figured home was like my user directory and made my own documents/pictures/etc folders xD | 07:45 |
| dj_ | So where is /usr then? I didnt set up a partition specifically for /usr | 07:46 |
| Transfusion | uhh >_> sorry, yeah, i think that's more right. Downloads, Pictures, Music goes in home too. | 07:46 |

| Sunstream_ | I played with Ubu before on a ps3 and i liked it, ran it as a virtual machine loved it but was still fond of windows 7 so i will go ahead and install it | 07:46 |
| presonic | dj_: you can reconfigure, but 20 gig for / should be enough for the core install + MATLAB | 07:47 |
| presonic | you're ok | 07:47 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:47 |
| dj_ | Thanks Presonic | 07:47 |

| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:47 |
| dj_ | Beldar, Can you explain more on that? What are the differences? Thanks | 07:47 |
| Transfusion | it's more user preference and practical issues I think. | 07:47 |
| jvaemape_123 | Hi all | 07:48 |

| Sunstream_ | thank you all. i made ny decision. Death to XP Hello Ubuntu 14.04 | 07:50 |
| dj_ | Beldar, I understand, Thanks though. I guess I need to do more reading on this | 07:50 |
| n00buntu | can i ask, if i use fstab to create a mount for /home to point 2nd partition, why when i save to /home "/" still grows | 07:50 |
| Beldar | dj_, Yeah, we want to help, but you hae to be careful here people will just answer without realizing what I just stated is all. | 07:50 |
| Beldar | n00buntu, where ever you save grows. | 07:52 |
| n00buntu | well i was thinking once i mounted to 2nd partion that the sdb1 would grow, not sda1 | 07:52 |
| n00buntu | sorry a bit new to linux | 07:53 |
| Beldar | n00buntu, That is a very jungled question does not really make sense, what is your end goal? | 07:53 |
| n00buntu | id like to as dj mentioned have "/" designated just for the os | 07:53 |
| n00buntu | so i have an ssd that id like to use strictly for the os | 07:53 |
| Beldar | n00buntu, / here means the root partition | 07:54 |
| n00buntu | and the hdd (2ndary) for games, docs, etc | 07:54 |
| yagami | hola | 07:55 |
| Beldar | n00buntu, Or if you have just one partition fr ubuntu / is the OS partition | 07:55 |

| yagami | ok ok thank u | 07:59 |
| presonic | n00buntu: games and docs installed using apt-get wont land in /home, only their config and user specific info will. might be better off using the other parititon for /usr, but i dk | 07:59 |

| priuon | abhie2e, can't find geary. Is it maybe not available for xubuntu? | 08:00 |
| Beldar | faschel, The extensions are for the gnome shell, not unity | 08:01 |
| n00buntu | tx presonic | 08:01 |
| faschel | Beldar, that's why i began with "I just installed gnome ubuntu" | 08:01 |
| priuon | abhie2e, also on 12.04.04 | 08:01 |
| Transfusion | not sure, but theoretically it is possible if you have a bootloader that loads arm linux kernel. but secureboot screws things up pretty badly. | 08:02 |

| Sunstream_ | Guys can i do a full install from the current pendrive setup or do i have to redo it as a liveusb? | 08:08 |
| cezdev | Which Linux nvidia driver for Ubuntu 14.04 is safe to use? without freezing/hiccups etc. | 08:09 |
| n00buntu | can i change the mount point for /usr && /usr/local within /etc/fstab if i currently have that mount point already set to /home? | 08:09 |
| priuon | abhie2e, apt-cache search geary -> no result | 08:09 |

| cezdev | alll the propiraty drivers are bad for my GTX 560 | 08:09 |
| abhie2e | priuon, which os and version? | 08:09 |
| cezdev | I did that | 08:09 |
| priuon | xubuntu 12.04.04 | 08:10 |
| cezdev | Beldar, all drivers there end up freezing my systems | 08:10 |
| cezdev | each one of em | 08:10 |
| Beldar | got it | 08:10 |
| cezdev | Xorg is safe to use | 08:10 |
| cezdev | I just don' t know what the problem is | 08:10 |

| NEWUSER | Guys, is there any way to build g++ manually | 08:11 |
| cezdev | 14.04 64 | 08:11 |
| cezdev | and Nvidia | 08:11 |
| Sunstream_ | i guess i will have to just wait off till i can get more info | 08:11 |
| abhie2e | priuon, maybe build from source https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Geary | 08:11 |
| arun_ | guys, is there any way to run ctrl+R through command ? | 08:12 |
| priuon | abhie2e, i have multivers excluded. Might this be the problem? | 08:12 |
| abhie2e | priuon, yes. try including it. | 08:12 |
| abhie2e | priuon, enbale it. apt-get update and then geary | 08:12 |
| Sunstream_ | i dont even know if my tezt is typing through | 08:13 |
| somsip | arun_: in what context? | 08:14 |
| priuon | abhie2e, how do i check if a pack is installed (for the dependencies) | 08:14 |
| abhie2e | "pack"? | 08:14 |
| priuon | abhie2e, package | 08:14 |
| arun_ | somsip: using terminal/bash script python will also be ok | 08:15 |
| abhie2e | priuon, just install the main software using apt-get it will install the dependencies automatically. | 08:15 |
| NEWUSER | what dependencies does g++ require and how to install it manually? | 08:15 |
| Transfusion | apt-cache showpkg package-name ...? | 08:15 |
| cezdev | Beldar, you got anything for me I can look into ? | 08:15 |
| Transfusion | will show the dependencies too | 08:15 |
| somsip | arun_: what are you trying to achieve? | 08:16 |
| priuon | abhie2e, well i still need to know. there was dpkg, but i don't really now how to use it | 08:16 |
| Beldar | cezdev, Not really there are ppa's xswat is one there is another considered unstable. Not sure really what you need, I have never had to mess with Nvidia | 08:16 |
| arun_ | somsip: for a desktop icon to refresh (f5 or Ctrl+R) | 08:16 |
| abhie2e | priuon, try apt-cache policy packagename | 08:16 |
| faschel | Beldar, in case you're interested i just found this article: http://blog.chromium.org/2013/09/saying-goodbye-to-our-old-friend-npapi.html | 08:17 |
| cezdev | Okay, thank you Beldar for helping | 08:17 |
| cezdev | I google some more around | 08:17 |
| priuon | abhie2e, that seems to do it. Thanks | 08:17 |
| cezdev | I want to play Witcher 2 on Linux | 08:17 |
| faschel | I imagine it has something to do with it | 08:17 |
| Beldar | faschel, I had heard that, I use FF primarily is all. | 08:18 |
| cezdev | but I need a stable driver for that | 08:18 |
| somsip | arun_: what desktop icon? In unity? | 08:18 |
| NEWUSER | cezdev: what dependencies do g++ require to be built manually? | 08:18 |
| priuon | abhie2e, using multiverse didn't seem to solve it for apt-cache search | 08:18 |
| cezdev | @NEWUSER let me look into that for you | 08:18 |
| arun_ | Somasis: yup | 08:18 |

| NEWUSER | cezdev: thank you, Cezdev. But since I do not have access to internet from an Ubuntu system. Is there any other way to download these packages manually from a windows platform and then build it in my ubuntu system. And please make a note (I forgot to say), I use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS | 08:21 |
| faschel | Beldar, it works in opera. thanks for the suggestion | 08:21 |

| priuon | abhie2e, is yorba a trusted source? i am depended of the system and don't want to jeopardise is | 08:23 |
| priuon | *it | 08:23 |
| Beldar | faschel, Ah, more overall support I think with ubuntu | 08:23 |
| abhie2e | priuon, they are the creator of the geary. | 08:23 |
| abhie2e | priuon, http://yorba.org/ | 08:24 |
| priuon | :) ... abhie2e well i could not find the gee and gio dependencies | 08:24 |
| abhie2e | priuon, http://yorba.org/geary/help/ | 08:24 |
| faschel | Beldar, yea, and they are diverging further from the ubuntu base, so there's not as much compatibility between them anymore. gnome 3 was essentially broken | 08:24 |
| NGC982 | Guys, i'm new into databases and such, and i'm trying to setup a Wordpress. I'm at the step of adding a user to mysql, and i keep getting this Access denied line. | 08:24 |
| abhie2e | priuon, install it manually? | 08:24 |
| cedric__ | Hello, did you go on facebook today ? | 08:24 |
| NGC982 | I have no idea how to google it, since the error message seems to spam the entire mysql application | 08:24 |
| abhie2e | NGC982, #wordpress | 08:25 |
| Beldar | faschel, The extensions are put together by 3rd parties as well and are not really keeping up with the ubuntu releases less work per up the release I go, but that is the ones I use though. | 08:25 |
| priuon | how can i revert anything done, if i do this with ppa? | 08:25 |
| abhie2e | priuon, revert what? just purge the application. | 08:25 |
| priuon | abhie2e, remove the repo for instance | 08:26 |
| cezdev | So Beldar, I add this PPA | 08:26 |
| cezdev | and then what? | 08:26 |
| abhie2e | priuon, just uncomment /delete the repo in /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:26 |
| cezdev | apt-get install ???? | 08:26 |
| abhie2e | cezdev, after adding new repo always do apt-get update first before installation | 08:26 |
| NGC982 | abhie2e: Oh, that's a thing? Thanks! | 08:26 |
| cezdev | @abhi2e ofcourse yo! | 08:27 |
| abhie2e | NGC982, :-) | 08:27 |
| Sunstream_ | okay lets try this again, do i have to change my thunb drive to a liveusb to install ubuntu or can i use the way i installed it to do the install tk the hard drive? | 08:27 |
| priuon | abhie2e, k | 08:27 |
| arun_ | somsip: so, can't I get my work done with out the Api thing? | 08:27 |
| faschel | Beldar, i meant cinnamon (they're modification of gnome 3) is diverging so far from the vanilla gnome 3 that trying to run gnome-shell conflicts too much with something and nothing really works. the app launcher couldn't find any apps. opening tweak caused some sort of graphics failure. alt tab broke everything. etc | 08:27 |
| somsip | arun_: don't know. You've said nothing about what your work is, and you don't seem to understand how to interface with running programs. Maybe you need to research a little more. | 08:28 |
| Sunstream_ | nevermind i will just make a live usb maker | 08:28 |
| thecha | Sunstream_→ i dont understand | 08:28 |
| Beldar | faschel, Ah, cinnamon was removed in trusty, but mate is there, but we are a bit off topic with this is all. ;) | 08:28 |
| faschel | Beldar, fair enough | 08:29 |
| Sunstream_ | i used uui to make th ubuntu usb drive to test it niw i want to install it | 08:29 |
| cezdev | So I updated the sources.list | 08:29 |
| cezdev | what do I install from that PPA ? | 08:30 |
| arun_ | somsip: sorry, but misunderstanding from me, the thing I am wanting to do is I have created a refresh.desktop file and I am wanting to do the refresh job which is done by pressing ctrl+R or F5 , with that .desktop file when clicked, that desktop file should refresh the desktop contents as used to | 08:30 |
| Sunstream_ | do i have to change i to a liveusb | 08:30 |
| cezdev | nvidia driver? | 08:30 |
| Sunstream_ | or do i jus run an install | 08:30 |
| faschel | is there a way to scale monitors differently? i have a 24" 1080p and a 27 1440p | 08:32 |

| Ben64 | neutralizer: this channel is for ubuntu support, not phones | 09:09 |
| faschel | neutralizer, from my experience, someone who asks a question like that in the way that you asked it has a couple years of intense self-education before they are anywhere near their original goal. | 09:11 |
| faschel | but like Ben64 said, this isn't the place for that sort of question | 09:12 |
| priuon | how do i manually check for upgrades? | 09:12 |
| priuon | or updates ... | 09:12 |
| Ben64 | priuon: "sudo apt get update" will check, but not update anything | 09:12 |
| priuon | Ben64, how do i show any updates? | 09:12 |
| priuon | Ben64, how do i show available updates? | 09:13 |
| neutralizer | Ben64: I am aware of this fact. I guessed the linux part would make it suitable. | 09:13 |
| Ben64 | priuon: "sudo apt get dist-upgrade" will do the upgrade, usually asking you if you want to proceed | 09:13 |
| neutralizer | faschel: sorry did not get you | 09:13 |
| Ben64 | neutralizer: please note that this channel is for ubuntu support only, not generic linux questions or things like that | 09:13 |

| bekks | priuon: So pastebin the requested information. | 09:32 |
| priuon | bekks: give me a second. I figured my software center config might influence aptitude | 09:33 |
| gry2_ | fyi i tried apt-cache search iwl, found nothing | 09:33 |
| gry2_ | i'm like transparent here | 09:33 |
| bekks | priuon: stop both, and pastebin the information requested. last chance to do so. | 09:34 |
| gry2_ | a lot of internet suggests to compile manually, but i don't really think it's gone from repos | 09:34 |
| priuon | bekks: i changed some settings and doing a <280MB upgrade now | 09:34 |
| mark06 | priuon: and the related packages are on an inconsistent state? ok then remove the packages with --purge and then run apt-get autoremove --purge.... (that would remove the depencies)... this should reset you to a clean state | 09:34 |

| Tii | hey guys, I have a problem compiling php on my new server... I configured as usual but the libtool that is generated by ./configure is crap... the sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec variable is totally messed up... don't know why. I pasted the first few lines in here: http://pastebin.com/28dZvfJg | 09:37 |
| Tii | i compared this to the one on my old server, and there were only (as expected) a few paths but no unicode crap | 09:37 |
| Tii | and interestingly enough this variable initialization goes from line 335 to line 151189... | 09:37 |
| Tii | so the compile process takes FOREVER | 09:37 |
| Tii | but of course failes, because of this unicode crap | 09:37 |
| faschel | i still have no idea why it is not working....this is a fresh install | 09:37 |
| Tii | does anyone know how this sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec variable gets generated? | 09:37 |

| mark06 | either way, I guess looking at what the configure does is the way to go... | 09:44 |

| priuon | for no apparent reason the scrollback is not the way i set it anymore | 09:45 |

| Tii | mark06, i336_, thats all it has found: http://pastebin.com/k0MwuhRY It takes a while to check the variables... I'll be back in touch then... | 09:53 |
| i336_ | Tii: lines like line 109534 look particularly suspicious: | 09:54 |
| mark06 | Tii: how about grep -rn 1402823441 /usr/lib* | 09:54 |
| i336_ | 109534: ys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec="/usr/lib${libsuff} /lib${libsuff}" | 09:54 |
| gry2_ | okay, give me a minute, I'll try to load the packages.ubuntu.com website to look up the terminal version in 12.04 | 09:54 |
| gry2_ | priuon: It looks like you're on the latest sadly. If you want a later version, you have to upgrade. I might suggest that you try it under another OS user (such as guest session) and see if the issue persists there. | 09:54 |
| mark06 | i336_: what's wrong there | 09:55 |
| i336_ | mark06: I'd bet a few cents that ${libsuff} is being subtituted with an actual file | 09:55 |
| i336_ | mark06: or something similar in one of the other instances in the file | 09:55 |
| mark06 | i336_: doesn't the !<arch> part look like some sort of config line? | 09:59 |
| i336_ | mark06: head -n 2 <any .deb you like> | 09:59 |
| i336_ | mark06: that's the .deb file format, AND the format produced by the historical `ar' archiver | 10:00 |
| mark06 | i336_: good, I see an ELF there so it contains an executable, I guess... I'd just grep for 1402823441 and find where the file is located... then track it down form there in configure | 10:02 |
| i336_ | mark06: I see... | 10:02 |
| Tii | why 1402823441 ? | 10:02 |
| Tii | oh ... forget about it xD | 10:02 |
| i336_ | Tii: to find the file data being included for w/e bizarre reason | 10:02 |
| Tii | mark06, i336_ nothing found | 10:03 |
| i336_ | Tii: you ran something along the lines of "grep 1402823441 -r *" ? | 10:04 |
| Tii | What mark06 posted earlier | 10:04 |
| Tii | for /usr/lib* | 10:04 |
| i336_ | oh | 10:04 |
| * i336_ boggles | 10:05 | |
| Tii | it outputs two error lines - no such file for /usr/lib/ispell/default.aff and (same directory) default.hash | 10:05 |
| Tii | Maybe I just go over each line containing sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec in configure and echo any use variable in a file :D | 10:07 |
| Tii | BUT | 10:07 |
| Tii | I just ran grep -rn 1402823441 /usr and got | 10:08 |

| Sunstream_ | okay question | 10:09 |
| mark06 | hmm no nevermind | 10:09 |
| Sunstream_ | i want to disable visual effects in 14.04 how do i do this | 10:10 |
| mark06 | Tii: how about grep -rn 1402823441 /etc ... sorry I think that's rather a config file | 10:10 |
| i336_ | mark06: .a files are static libraries packed with `ar' | 10:10 |
| i336_ | mark06: I forgot... I just discovered that the other day | 10:10 |
| i336_ | mark06: you toss them at gcc and they get statically linked into your binary | 10:11 |
| i336_ | mark06: think the static equivalent of .so | 10:11 |
| i336_ | mark06: (different file format, but practically speaking, yeah) | 10:11 |
| mark06 | i336_: so the number is part of the file? | 10:11 |
| Tii | no results on /etc, only grep: /etc/vz/dev/vzlink: Operation not permitted grep: /etc/blkid.tab: No such file or directory | 10:12 |
| mark06 | and it doesn't start with !<arch>? | 10:12 |
| i336_ | mark06: I would think so | 10:12 |
| i336_ | mark06: "!<arch>" = file produced by `ar'; ar files = used for .deb archives and static libraries | 10:12 |
| cedric__ | i've asked if somebody gone to fb site because it was crashed during sevral minutes today | 10:12 |
| i336_ | Tii, mark06: so, not a .deb file; a library something's trying to link in | 10:12 |
| mrdigital | clear | 10:13 |
| i336_ | Tii, mark06: this is my Grand Theory(TM): something's said "and all the libraries in this directory" using syntax such as "$DIR*". Somehow DIR has resolved to a single filename, so $DIR* matches that single file, not the directory, including the file in the libtool script | 10:14 |
| i336_ | Tii, mark06: vague and crazy, but that's the farthest I can go... | 10:14 |
| Tii | mark06, i336_, But isn't /usr/local/lib/libltdl.a our file? | 10:14 |
| i336_ | Tii: yes, that's the single file referenced | 10:15 |
| Tii | mark06, i336_ just for understanding... | 10:15 |
| Tii | oka | 10:15 |
| Tii | y | 10:15 |
| i336_ | I mean, it could be something completely different, but you now have something very concrete to poke the ubuntu bugtracker with | 10:15 |
| i336_ | [ some point in the future on the ubuntu bugtracker: ] "ohi, I haz the contents of /usr/local/lib/libltdl.a in my libtool script!" -> "O.o?!?! *dozens of people inspect bug report out of pure curiosity" | 10:16 |

| priuon | what email client will never display "Display Names" in a column or offer the solumns that do so? | 10:17 |
| i336_ | ah. | 10:17 |
| i336_ | priuon: what do you mean? | 10:17 |
| priuon | i336_, all emailclients i installed so far will either only or always display "Display Names" associated to an emailaddress. | 10:18 |
| i336_ | oh.. I see, a contacts thing | 10:18 |
| priuon | i336_, i don't want any contact management capabilities at all | 10:18 |
| i336_ | wow, that's a hard one | 10:19 |
| priuon | evolution seemed okay. But it doesn't offer the columns i need | 10:20 |
| Tii | mark06, i336_: So what's next? What can I do? | 10:20 |
| gry2_ | priuon: Hi. I think this column is a part of protocol, and you can make these display names empty anyway. | 10:20 |
| priuon | gry2_, how do i clear them? | 10:21 |
| gry2_ | priuon: Have you tried Thunderbird? And are these columns in address book or where specifically? | 10:21 |
| i336_ | Tii: you actually have something concrete: /usr/local/lib/libltdl.a has wound up in your libtool script. You can report that to the Ubuntu and PHP bugtrackers, and probably get a helpful result. | 10:21 |
| gry2_ | priuon: In existing messages you received, you can't clear it, if the sender included his/her name in the FROM field. | 10:21 |
| priuon | gry2_, these columns show in the inbox and folders | 10:21 |
| gry2_ | priuon: So you'd like to not see sender column at all? Or would you like to still see it, but only see his/her email? | 10:22 |
| i336_ | Tii: although I'd probably just send to the Ubuntu bugtracker. | 10:22 |
| priuon | gry2_, yeah well i don't mind seeing email context when i open them | 10:22 |
| priuon | but i don't want to see any content in the list | 10:22 |
| i336_ | Tii: one completely different approach would be to... simply download a different version of PHP. like, a version earlier or something. | 10:22 |
| gry2_ | priuon: In Thunderbird you can switch off any columns using a button at right top of the list view. | 10:22 |
| Tii | i336_, already tried that.. same problem | 10:22 |
| priuon | most of all don't i want the app to do anything with the data received | 10:22 |
| i336_ | Tii: hm :/ | 10:22 |
| Tii | i336_, or at least a related one | 10:23 |
| i336_ | Tii: ?? | 10:23 |
| Tii | i336_, I'm not sure, if it was the same error... But I think so | 10:23 |
| i336_ | interesting | 10:23 |
| gry2_ | priuon: I think Thunderbird downloads the "headers" by default (the message subject, from, to fields) but does not download any content. | 10:23 |
| priuon | gry2_, thunderbird still does not offer the columns i need by default and worst not optional behaviour is having custom view for each folder (as evolution does have as well apparently) | 10:23 |
| gry2_ | priuon: I see. What columns you need by default? | 10:24 |
| i336_ | priuon: try opera mail, included with old versions of opera for linux | 10:24 |
| priuon | gry2_, well the downloading is not that much of an issue. | 10:24 |
| i336_ | priuon: protip: ftp.opera.com :P | 10:24 |
| priuon | gry2_, sender and recipients. | 10:24 |
| priuon | gry2_, but co derived formats | 10:24 |
| i336_ | as a bonus, it doubles as a superfast browser that can sortakinda render today's websites :P | 10:24 |
| i336_ | (presto is very old now though) | 10:25 |
| mark06 | Tii: sorry I was trying to open the file, do you program? | 10:25 |
| i336_ | mark06: likely in PHP :P | 10:25 |
| lavine | superfast i think is FF :P | 10:25 |
| priuon | gry2_, i want to see the adresses used in the header. nothing else | 10:25 |
| Tii | mark06, yep, various c-like languages | 10:25 |
| i336_ | lavine: true, I think firefox is noticeably faster than chrome here | 10:25 |
| i336_ | Tii: \o/ | 10:25 |
| gry2_ | priuon: No subject? Only the sender and receiver e-mail (without display name)? | 10:25 |
| priuon | gry2_, sure subject as well ;) | 10:25 |
| lavine | it's true..! You see chrome 26 have many bug..special is shockwaves | 10:26 |
| gry2_ | I see. | 10:26 |
| i336_ | lavine: ha | 10:26 |
| priuon | gry2_, but this is almost always present as far as i can tell | 10:26 |
| i336_ | lavine: you mean flash? :P | 10:26 |
| lavine | some people tell FF is slowly..if you optimaze it..it' will running fast better than any browser | 10:26 |
| gry2_ | priuon: I think Thunderbird shows both of these by default (sender and receiver) but display names thing is something you can clear after you added these folks to address book (at best!) since if you look at message raw source, their display name sits in there. I'll see if it's configurable though. | 10:27 |
| i336_ | lavine: agreed | 10:27 |
| lavine | yup..i using backbox and have many bug before i'm fixed | 10:27 |

| gry2_ | priuon: OK. | 10:27 |
| i336_ | lavine: .au here :P | 10:27 |
| mark06 | Tii: ok then the answer is on the configure file... you have at least one file which is probably in that junk... next step to me would be see all pieces in configure related to '/usr/local/lib' and 'libltdl' | 10:27 |
| lavine | welcome ;) | 10:28 |

| priuon | gry2_, but might think about doing so. But i really don't want to see display names in the folder view (that is supposed to be global) | 10:28 |
| i336_ | agreed | 10:28 |
| usrb1n | Hello everybody. I tried to configure postfix and I guess I've did that. I can see the mail in each user home directory on the following path: /home/user/Maildir/new as a long filename (including date,some string, the hostname) but I can't get it from mail and I also don't get any notification when I get the mail | 10:29 |
| mark06 | Tii: also, can you paste /usr/local/lib/libltdl.a? paste it as text anyway | 10:29 |
| usrb1n | So the mail commands returns No mail for user | 10:29 |
| usrb1n | But the mail goes directly to /home/user/Maildir/new | 10:29 |
| usrb1n | Nothing in /var/mail or /var/spool/mail | 10:29 |
| priuon | gry2_, well i already tried everything the thunderbird gui offers but could not configure it correctly. there is an addon for the columns i need. But having to configure any folder seperately is just to much work | 10:30 |
| Tii | mark06, not sure how I should do that xD if i echo the file my console is doing strange things... | 10:31 |

| mark06 | Tii: ok man, I mean the 1402823441 is withing the assignment and if a file contains that, it would probably be the file getting inlined... but that .a file seems to have nothing more in common to the garbage than that piece.... | 10:42 |
| Tii | that means it is not the only file that gets included or it gets included more than once | 10:42 |

| i336_ | sl33k_: try to more uniquely define the "word" or pattern | 10:45 |
| Tii | mark06, i336_: two things | 10:45 |
| i336_ | priuon: I just checked and can tell you that opera mail does NOT have the features you're looking for :/ | 10:45 |
| Tii | mark06, i336_: I can't post it anywhere, cause it's too huge and secondly: The variable has multiple !<arch> in there | 10:46 |
| i336_ | hahahaha, the troll was too silly to change his IP before rejoining ^^ | 10:47 |
| * i336_ has a bash script to get himself a new IP address if he needs one | 10:47 | |
| * i336_ is also not a troll. :] | 10:47 | |
| priuon | anyways I must have an SMTP client | 10:47 |

| mark06 | i336_: I was able to link with that .a file on windows, not sure if it's just ok or just got ignored... the exe doesn't crash..... | 10:47 |
| priuon | i336_, is opera mail available for ubuntu/xubuntu? | 10:48 |

| i336_ | Tii: bash will asplode with double-quotes | 10:48 |
| i336_ | priuon: yes, I can get you the link, but I just checked, and it has absolutely no options for the kind of thing you're looking for | 10:49 |
| i336_ | mark06: huh. | 10:49 |
| mark06 | Tii: try pasting up to the second <arch>... on question.... is that junk in the configure script itself or somewhere else? where? | 10:49 |
| i336_ | mark06: | 10:50 |

| priuon | i336_, thanks ;) | 10:50 |
| Tii | mark06, this junk is in the libtool file, generated by the configure script | 10:50 |

| i336_ | priuon: ...I was kinda wondering what you meant there, yea :P | 10:50 |
| Tii | and i just figured out there are 6 !<arch> in libtool | 10:50 |
| i336_ | Tii: [20:48:45] <i336_> Tii: grep '!<arch>' /(whatever paths you like) | 10:51 |
| mark06 | i336_: is that the one he pasted? | 10:51 |
| Tii | two are the same number | 10:51 |

| i336_ | Tii: *this is the command I meant to say:* grep '!<arch>' libtool | 10:51 |

| i336_ | Tii: :D:D | 10:51 |
| Tii | i336_, I thought so ;) | 10:51 |
| mark06 | Tii: the file is called 'libtool'?? odd | 10:51 |

| i336_ | mark06: part of autoconf | 10:51 |
| faschel | im on a fresh in stall of gnome-ubuntu on a new computer build, but im not getting any sound | 10:52 |
| faschel | atm, the sound is being run into the speakers via a display port | 10:52 |
| Tii | i336_, i think this i not going to work, because all that shit is in ONE line... and grep works per line, right? | 10:52 |
| i336_ | Tii: oh, awesome... let's see now | 10:53 |
| faschel | I've never had to debug a sound problem/. can someone tell me where the logs would be for this sort of thing? | 10:53 |
| Tii | i336_, if i output it, the console is playing crazy again, can't post it to sprunge, cause it takes too long | 10:53 |
| Tii | anyway, i have the numbers of all !<arch> whatevs | 10:54 |
| i336_ | Tii: do you have a pastebin link to _some_ of the data inside libtool? | 10:54 |
| i336_ | Tii: ...or, skip grep, that's what we want then :D | 10:54 |
| i336_ | Tii: grep for those numbers in /usr or w/e :D | 10:54 |

| jrib | arun_: background the first command with "&". Example: COMMAND1 & COMMAND2 | 10:55 |

| arun_ | histo: yeah | 10:58 |

| i336_ | mark06: because that defines the size. | 11:02 |

| Ryan6578 | Hey. Having a problem installing ubuntu. Trying to install it on a laptop that has Windows previously installed on it. I mounted the .iso for Ubuntu to a 2GB flash drive, and booted from the flash drive and all I saw is a purple screen with a pixelated image at the bottom, and now it's just been sitting at a black screen with a blinking cursor for like 10 minutes. | 11:21 |
| histo | arun_: pastebin the script that doesn't work | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | arun_: have you asked in #pyton too | 11:21 |
| === arun_ is now known as arunpyasi | ||

| priuon | how do i install old versions? | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? | 11:22 |
| Ryan6578 | ActionParsnip: I don't think so. What do you mean? | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: I'm guessing by "mounted" you mean that you used unetbootin or similar to put the data from the ISO to the USB.... | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | !md5 | Ryan6578 | 11:22 |
| ubottu | Ryan6578: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 11:22 |
| Ryan6578 | ActionParsnip: Yeah. | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: you presently do not know for sure that the data you downloaded is complete or error free | 11:23 |

| Ryan6578 | I downloaded the file directly from the Ubuntu.com site not to long ago though. | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: doesnt matter where it is from | 11:24 |
| priuon | ActionParsnip, it did not do what i want either | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: that is not what you are testing. The internet is one of the most unreliable networks and data can get mangled in transit | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: TCP does a decent job of dropping and re-requesting data but it is not perfect | 11:24 |
| arunpyasi | guys, I have merged that script and bash command and got this thing out http://dpaste.com/2AXY6NZ | 11:25 |
| Ryan6578 | ActionParsnip: Okay. I'm going to check that now. I'll let you know what the results are. | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: you could get the ISO from the dodgeyest warez site owned by the Nazi's and as long as it passed MD5 check then it is fine | 11:25 |
| Ryan6578 | xD | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: so "I got it from Ubuntu.com" doesnt mean anythin g at all, if the data is bad, it won't work | 11:25 |

| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: did you seriously think you can have only one terminal open at a time? | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: dude at work I have about 12 with about 16 tabs apiece.... | 11:32 |
| Sunstream | the issue is my gpu sucks | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: press CTRL + ALT + T and you will get a new terminal, run: 'cat /etc/issue' what is the output? | 11:33 |
| mark06 | Tii: found line 113197 suspicious too | 11:33 |

| mark06 | Tii: I don't what -C will tell | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: that is your GPU, the fact it is not on a separate video card is of zero consequence to any OS | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Ryan6578: try the boot option 'nomodeset', it can help with Intel GPUs | 11:34 |
| Tii | mark06, http://dl.stevie-ray.me/config.log here you go, but it takes forever | 11:34 |

| ActionParsnip | !nomodeset | Ryan6578 | 11:34 |
| ubottu | Ryan6578: 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 | 11:34 |
| Sunstream | says Ubuntu 14.04 LTS \n \l | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: cool huh, 2 terminals.....imagine | 11:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: you could try gnome-shell, xfce4 or lxde instead of the default Unity shell + Compiz (Compiz gives the effects and uses the GPU to make them) | 11:36 |
| Sunstream | i suppose. but all i want to do is turn off the fade in out effects | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: if you use a non-compoziting session, it will give a smoother desktop experience and labour your system less | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: you can use ubuntu-tweak for that (might be unity-tweak) | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: or if they dont do it, compizconfig-settings-manager is in the repos, but may cause issues | 11:37 |
| Sunstream | of which i cannot find said options | 11:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: under ccsm? | 11:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: search on the main page of ccsm for the: close effect (i think its that) | 11:38 |

| jdo_dk | I have extended a disc in vmware, but how do i get the extra disc "into" my partition in ubuntu ? | 11:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: there is a settings tool, its not installed by default. I assumed you had installed it and tried to find it | 11:40 |
| Sunstream | i dont know what to look under in unity tweak to | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | jdo_dk: you will need to unmount the partition and you can then use gparted to grow the partition | 11:40 |
| Sunstream | nope | 11:40 |
| jdo_dk | ActionParsnip: Will try, thansk | 11:40 |
| jdo_dk | thanks even | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | jdo_dk: if you have grown the system partition you will need to down the system and use gparted in the ubuntu liveCD desktop | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Sunstream: install compizconfig-settings-manager and try that | 11:41 |
| Sunstream | so what do i need to installl? | 11:41 |
| ActionParsnip | jdo_dk: there is also a gparted liveCD which boots a bit quicker, but if you have the ubuntu CD (or ISO on your datastore) you may as well use taht | 11:42 |
| jdo_dk | ActionPArsnip: is gparted gui program ? I'm on a ubuntu server ? | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | jdo_dk: yes gparted is GUI, but you can boot to GUI liveCDs | 11:43 |

| mark06 | Tii: ok, my guess is that line 110445/113/523 (duplicated no idea why) fails because line 109560/113197 (note) fails first. That's awk but I don't really know awk... so no idea what it's doing... | 11:49 |

| mark06 | Tii: I mean, normally editing the configure file (the awk line) would not be the solution.... I'd maybe /join #awk as ask what that line means and how that could lead to an error like yours... then lucky find out "what went wrong" and think about the best fix (either a bug report or some change in your procedure).... sorry for not helping more.... these errors are as stupid as who wrote their software you know.... | 11:55 |

| bekks | histo: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch03.html#settings-usb second note section. | 11:59 |
| robotdevil | histo: I know where the setting is but I dont know what setting a filter does | 11:59 |
| bekks | robotdevil: A filter automatically passes through the filtered device to the vm. | 12:00 |
| robotdevil | I see | 12:00 |
| robotdevil | its for automagical | 12:00 |
| bekks | Which isnt needed, actually, since the USB device can be passed through manually. | 12:01 |

| histo | NewUser: it has nothing to do with ubuntu. I'm sure they are running linux on their tv but most likely it isn't ubuntu. | 12:42 |
| robotdevil | should be under my computer right? | 12:43 |
| iptable | David_, probably, if you actually ask the question | 12:43 |
| histo | NewUser: something is different between the two besides the filesystem if what you are saying that other files are working. | 12:43 |
| histo | David_: just ask | 12:43 |
| NewUser | hmm.. so is there anyway to convert ntfs to fat without losing the data? | 12:43 |
| histo | NewUser: no | 12:43 |
| iptable | NewUser, there are different versions and version supports for NTFS for all windows and linux | 12:43 |
| David_ | I have textfile containing x-lines, of which some of them end with ", THE" I would like to create another file containing all the lines ending with ", THE" | 12:44 |
| iptable | NewUser, e.g. windows xp will not work with windows 8 NTFS unless XP is SP3. | 12:44 |
| David_ | I think the grep function is what I need | 12:44 |
| iptable | NewUser, could be that, who knows. | 12:44 |
| iptable | NewUser, format to NTFS using LINUX and use then. | 12:44 |
| histo | NewUser: you'd have to copy the data out format the drive then copy the data back | 12:44 |

| iptable | David_, cat FILE |grep -P ', THE$' > NEWFILE | 12:45 |
| David_ | thanks iptable, I'll try! | 12:45 |
| histo | robotdevil: make sure the drive is unmounted on the host. create the filter and boot the guest | 12:45 |
| robotdevil | it is | 12:45 |
| robotdevil | automatically | 12:45 |
| histo | iptable: why cat to grep ? | 12:46 |
| iptable | histo, good point. I was thinking logarhytmically, sorry. | 12:46 |
| robotdevil | hey hey, reinstall driver | 12:46 |
| iptable | David_, here, making it simplier: grep -P ', THE$' FILE > NEWFILE | 12:46 |
| histo | David_: grep ', THE' somefile > newfile | 12:46 |
| iptable | histo, that won't grep ", THE" at the end of line, but anywhere. hence the -P and the $ | 12:47 |
| robotdevil | thanks | 12:47 |
| histo | iptable: yeah don't need the -p but yeah $ | 12:48 |
| robotdevil | wonder how long 3 TB 97 % full is going to take | 12:48 |
| iptable | histo, depends on version of ubuntu and grep. some grep will auto-switch to egrep, while others won't. for safety, invoke pcre grep (grep -P) | 12:49 |
| histo | iptable: isn't that perl though? | 12:49 |
| iptable | robotdevil, depends on protocol, although "damn long" would be a good estimate | 12:49 |
| iptable | histo, pcre regex | 12:49 |
| histo | yeah perl regexp experiemtnal | 12:49 |
| David_ | @histo I tried it, but I end up with an empty file | 12:49 |

| iptable | MarioMey, it's meant to be, right? | 12:50 |
| MarioMey | No,. | 12:50 |
| MarioMey | I want my keypad as a keypad. | 12:50 |
| David_ | iptable, yes I did | 12:50 |
| iptable | histo, correct, -E and -P should be used to avoid issues with different grep versions ;) | 12:50 |
| David_ | I should add -E as well? | 12:51 |
| iptable | David_, which command DID you run (since we given so many)? | 12:51 |
| iptable | David_, and are you sure THE is at the end + is it a windows-formatted file? | 12:51 |
| histo | iptable: what issues? | 12:52 |
| David_ | grep -P ', THE$' file > NEWFILE | 12:52 |
| iptable | David_, I will guess it's a windows formatted file and THE is not at the end. Run histo's alternative then | 12:52 |
| iptable | David_, grep ', THE' file > NEWFILE | 12:52 |
| David_ | There are several lines containing a ", THE" at the end of the line | 12:52 |

| MarioMey | iptable: I said that I change permanently... how should I change again permanently? | 12:53 |
| histo | iptable: and doesn't that have to do with the shell? | 12:53 |
| iptable | histo, some grep versions auto-discover regex and swiith to (-E) or egrep automatically. others don't (in which case they will take $ very personally). | 12:53 |
| iptable | histo, no, that's grep-specific | 12:54 |
| MarioMey | Or... what program does the keypad as a mouse? | 12:54 |
| David_ | iptable, it worked! | 12:54 |
| iptable | histo, we use '' (single quotes), hence everything in the grep belongs to grep | 12:54 |
| David_ | I forgot to specify my path | 12:54 |
| iptable | oh | 12:54 |
| iptable | David_, glad we could assist | 12:54 |
| David_ | I added ~/ before the filename and that did the job | 12:54 |
| histo | iptable: try grep -G $ it still works | 12:54 |
| David_ | thanks thanks thanks | 12:54 |
| David_ | :-) | 12:55 |
| iptable | David_, well yes, you have to specify an existing file | 12:55 |
| iptable | histo, on YOUR system it does, yes | 12:55 |
| iptable | histo, I'm being generic out of experience. anyways. | 12:55 |
| histo | iptable: That's what i'm asking on what system does it not? I've never seen it | 12:55 |
| histo | just curious so I know | 12:55 |
| iptable | histo, on an LFS from 5 years ago. On ubuntu 8.04 it didn't and centos 4 it didn't. Also, on all BSD systems it doesn't. | 12:56 |
| histo | k | 12:56 |
| iptable | histo, hence I am being generic as I am used to people asking this on "whatever, it's meant to be ubuntu" and struggling. Best to be generic and never have a problem. Hence the scripts with grep normally container -P or -E | 12:56 |
| iptable | histo, although, anytyhing is broken on BSD, including the way tar thinks :P | 12:57 |
| david___1 | ipnode, what command should I use to add the word "THE" as the first word of each line? | 12:59 |
| histo | david___1: ^ | 12:59 |
| histo | david___1: to add or search? | 13:00 |
| david___1 | to add | 13:00 |
| iptable | david___1, ok, now I see what you want | 13:00 |
| MarioMey | iptable: I found it in dconf, org.gnome.desktop.a11y.keyboard - mousekeys_enable | 13:00 |
| iptable | david___1, and the next question will be how to remove , THE form the end of the line | 13:00 |
| histo | david___1: sed -e 's/^/THE/g' somefile | 13:00 |
| MarioMey | But I don't know after rebooting... Thanks for your time. | 13:01 |
| david___1 | let me try that! ;-) | 13:01 |
| iptable | david___1, sed -e 's/^/THE /g' somefile (if you want the space after THE) | 13:01 |
| iptable | david___1, to remove ", THE", sed -e 's/, THE//g' somefile | 13:02 |
| histo | david___1: and if it works you can add -i to sed to do it inline | 13:02 |
| david___1 | Perfect | 13:03 |
| david___1 | It works | 13:03 |
| david___1 | I'm getting really excited about command line! | 13:03 |
| histo | david___1: so if the output is what you like then sed -ie 's/^/THE /g' -e | 13:04 |
| histo | 's/, THE//g' | 13:04 |
| histo | somefile | 13:04 |
| histo | stupid enter key Sorry | 13:04 |
| histo | sed -ie 's/^/THE /g' -e 's/, THE//g' somefile | 13:05 |
| david___1 | truly amazing! | 13:05 |
| david___1 | Another raison to get studying comand line | 13:05 |
| david___1 | Thanks a bunch! | 13:05 |
| histo | david___1: yeap save you a bunch of time hopefully | 13:05 |
| david___1 | what does the sed program do, actually? | 13:06 |
| foufou | rse$hf!101 | 13:06 |
| david___1 | ok, I'm reading man sed now! ;-) | 13:06 |
| iptable | david___1, to do everything you want to in one command (for lines that end with , THE, remove , THE and put THE at the front), run this: cat a |sed -e 's/\(.*\), THE/THE \1/g' | 13:07 |
| iptable | david___1, cat somefile |sed -e 's/\(.*\), THE/THE \1/g' | 13:07 |
| iptable | david___1, that will do all your stuff in one command | 13:07 |
| chillibite | i'm trying to use modem-manager-gui to manage my usb mobile modem that takes a cell phone sim card, it says "no devices found in system" though the modem works fine by just inserting it into a usb slot | 13:08 |
| iptable | david___1, in short, find everything that has , THE at the end, memorise that everything except for the , THE and replace with what you memorised + THE at the front ;) | 13:08 |
| david___1 | iptable, I'm afraid that is a bit to complicated for me to comprehend at this moment, But I'm copying the function and hopefully Later I'll be able to understand it :-) | 13:08 |
| iptable | david___1, will work on your file even if some lines don't container the word ", THE" at the end ;) | 13:08 |
| chillibite | i need to use modem-manager-gui for SMS messages, to load data bundles, and to check my balance | 13:08 |
| chillibite | for some reason my modem is showing up as an ethernet connection, not a usb mobile modem | 13:09 |
| iptable | david___1, i.e. the whole procedure start to end, no need to grep, sed and sed again ;) | 13:09 |
| chillibite | in the gui network manager | 13:09 |
| chillibite | the software i'm trying to use is explained here "http://askubuntu.com/questions/380650/in-ubuntu-is-there-an-application-like-huawei-mobile-partner-for-broadband-co" | 13:10 |
| chillibite | though it isn't working properly for me | 13:10 |
| chillibite | not working at all actually | 13:10 |
| david___1 | thank you | 13:10 |
| david___1 | iptable! | 13:10 |
| david___1 | I wish I could come over and shouldertap you! ;-) | 13:10 |
| david___1 | I'm leaving now to do some selfstudy!! :-) | 13:11 |
| iptable | david___1, uhm, no thanks. I only allow women to come over and touch me :P | 13:11 |
| chillibite | why would a 'mobile broadband' connection show up as a wired ethernet connection? | 13:11 |
| iptable | because you have wired your mobile to the PC | 13:11 |
| chillibite | iptable: but it isn't ethernet | 13:11 |
| * Omnipotent wonders if its worth upgrading to 14.04 from 12.04 | 13:11 | |
| iptable | maybe your phone is presenting itself as a wired connection | 13:12 |
| iptable | Omnipotent, yes, if you are using KVM, LXC or want latest kernels and goodies, definitely | 13:12 |
| chillibite | iptable: it isnt a phone, it's a usb modem that takes a phone sim card | 13:12 |
| Omnipotent | Wait there is an actual dude called iptable | 13:12 |
| Omnipotent | :D | 13:12 |
| iptable | Omnipotent, lol, yes. software is iptables though, so that's different :D | 13:12 |
| * Omnipotent hands "s" to iptable | 13:13 | |
| iptable | chillibite, so your usb modem is presenting itself as a wired ethernet connection? have you tried other online methods that don't involve network manager to pinpoint the issue? | 13:13 |
| Omnipotent | There you go. | 13:13 |
| * iptable is now known as siptable | 13:13 | |
| iptable | siptable | 13:13 |
| iptable | I like that! Go PBX! | 13:13 |
| chillibite | iptable: yes | 13:14 |
| chillibite | tried every other piece of software available | 13:14 |
| iptable | chillibite, and it's all showing as ethernet connection? in that case, your USB modem might be compatibly-with-windows-only-you-need-our-special-windows-shit-software | 13:14 |
| chillibite | iptable: yes well seems like thats it becuase it works fine under windows, works fine under ubuntu as well, i just cant use it to load data and send text messages | 13:15 |
| iptable | chillibite, well, then that would be the case. it's a limitation of the modem. | 13:16 |
| chillibite | i guess then i need to plug it into my wifes windows box to load airtime, bundles or send messages etc. FUCK | 13:16 |
| iptable | chillibite, or get a modem that works with linux. alternatively reverse engineer this one. | 13:16 |
| chillibite | iptable: i'm in a remote mining town in rural zimbabwe, not sure how soon i can replace this modem | 13:17 |
| chillibite | though i am getting a VSAT connection soon so.... | 13:17 |
| iptable | ugh, well, you could install and use windows on vritualbox with usb passthru when you want to send messages | 13:18 |
| chillibite | iptable: plus this modem does work with gnu/linux just not for USSD codes and text messages | 13:18 |
| IdleOne | iptable, chillibite: please lets stick to support and avoid bad language and/or off topic comments. Thank you :) | 13:19 |
| mhare | Is there a way to check support lifetime for a given package selection? Not for an individual package but for every package put together? | 13:20 |
| iptable | IdleOne, offtopic? | 13:21 |
| iptable | mhare, packages in main are supported as long as the ubuntu version is. | 13:22 |

| DanielaDav | iptable: I'm Mario Mey | 13:26 |
| DanielaDav | Something really strange happened in my computer | 13:26 |
| DanielaDav | (now, I'm on my girlfriend's) | 13:26 |
| DanielaDav | Suddenly... there's no keyboard input. | 13:26 |
| chillibite | IdleOne: bad language, sorry, but nothing was off topic, my location was absolutely on topic | 13:26 |
| DanielaDav | The keyboard doesn't work... THE ONBOARD KEYBOARD NEITHER | 13:27 |
| DanielaDav | So, I can't write ANYTHING on my computer. | 13:27 |
| DanielaDav | But, If I close the session, I can write the password. | 13:27 |
| IdleOne | iptable, chillibite: I did say and/or | 13:27 |
| IdleOne | :) | 13:27 |
| chillibite | Yes sir! | 13:28 |
| iptable | IdleOne, oh. that would not be to me ;) | 13:28 |
| DanielaDav | iptable: So, there's no keys input... not from keyboard, not from onboard-keyboard. | 13:28 |
| niko1990 | Hello everyone | 13:28 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, if you reboot? | 13:28 |
| DanielaDav | iptable: Twice. | 13:29 |
| jackw411 | is there anybody about thats pretty savvy with upstart? | 13:29 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, turn off, press all keys one after another, turn on. let's see if it's not sticky keys first | 13:29 |
| DanielaDav | iptable: If I close session, I CAN write the password. It is a configuration stuff. | 13:29 |
| === AEM` is now known as aem` | ||
| DanielaDav | iptable: as INVITED, the keyboard DOES WORK. | 13:30 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, can you create new user and see if problem is solved for another user account? | 13:31 |
| DanielaDav | Uh... I don't know if I can create a user OUTSIDE administrator session... | 13:31 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, I would still like to know if it's not some sticky key that after password prompt makes it not work. super key and a few other modifiers can have this effect. | 13:31 |
| niko1990 | is it possible to link a shell-Script into a folder so that i can run the script no matter in what folder i am? For example like "vncserver". I can type in ssh in every folder "vncserver" and it starts a vncserver. Is it possible to get that to work for my own shell script too, so that i don't have to navigate to the folder where it is storred all the time? | 13:31 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, also, CTRL+ALT+F1 will take you to the shell. everything works there before login? how about after login? | 13:31 |
| DanielaDav | iptable: No. CTRL-ALT-Fone doesn't work, and the ONBOARD KEYBOARD DOESN'T WORK. | 13:33 |
| DanielaDav | So... the problem isn't on key keyboard... but in the keys input. | 13:33 |
| histo | dean: sudo useradd -m -G users test | 13:33 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, CTRL+ALT+F1 to F8 are not connected to your keymap in your session per se. | 13:33 |
| DanielaDav | Well... no, they don't work in this session. | 13:34 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, and please stop using caps. it's shouting and considered rude ;) | 13:34 |
| DanielaDav | Sorry. | 13:34 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, and when you are logged out of the session, can you get to comand prompt using CTRL_ALT_F1 or F2 and login there? | 13:34 |
| DanielaDav | Teach me how to log in from that terminal (I enter there) | 13:35 |
| iptable | Does it say: username ? | 13:35 |
| DanielaDav | Sorry, I didn't understand you. | 13:35 |
| iptable | no wait, it says "login" i nthat terminal | 13:35 |
| DanielaDav | Yes, I entered with username and pass. | 13:35 |
| iptable | and did it log you in? | 13:35 |
| DanielaDav | I can use the keyboard there. | 13:35 |
| DanielaDav | Yes. | 13:35 |
| iptable | useradd -m -G users test | 13:36 |
| iptable | did that ask you to create a password btw? if not: run: passwd test | 13:36 |
| DanielaDav | Yes. | 13:36 |
| iptable | Ok, so you got password and user. now CTRL+ALT+F7 to come back to GUI and login as user test wit hthe password | 13:37 |
| DanielaDav | iptable: I did it with sudo and it ask me for entering a password for UNIX. | 13:37 |
| DanielaDav | Is it ok? | 13:37 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, choose a password | 13:37 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, wait | 13:37 |
| DanielaDav | Done | 13:38 |
| DanielaDav | Ups. | 13:38 |
| arseus__ | Hello! Happy to say I've just migrated from Windows to Ubuntu. Can anyone recommend an intro to Linux or intro to Ubuntu resource? | 13:38 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, wait, did useradd ask you for password? | 13:38 |
| DanielaDav | No | 13:38 |
| histo | arseus__: which part of linux? | 13:38 |
| histo | iptable: it doesn't ask | 13:38 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, right, then do this: | 13:38 |
| iptable | histo, it's adduser that asks, damn. I always get those mixed up | 13:38 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, sudo passwd test | 13:38 |
| arseus__ | General use of it I suppose. | 13:38 |
| DanielaDav | Yes, I did it.ç | 13:39 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, and THEN set a new password for user test doing that command | 13:39 |
| iptable | ok | 13:39 |
| DanielaDav | Done. | 13:39 |
| DanielaDav | Should I enter with that user? | 13:39 |
| iptable | CTRL+ALT+F7, login to GUI as user test with the chosen password | 13:39 |
| iptable | keybaord works? | 13:39 |
| histo | Isn't adduser a debian/ubuntu thing? | 13:39 |
| DanielaDav | Yes. | 13:39 |
| iptable | histo, I believe so, although this is ubuntu channel and it is on ubuntu. | 13:39 |
| DanielaDav | As "invited" too. | 13:39 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, invited? | 13:40 |
| DanielaDav | Sorry, as "invited" user and this "test" user, in both, the keyboard works.ç | 13:40 |
| __infinity | hey | 13:40 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, so it works for all users apart from one user on that machine? It looks like yor profile has something broken | 13:40 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, so the question is: "what have I done and where to make my profile in /home so broken that keybaord doesn't respond in the GUI for my user, while it works everywhere else" | 13:41 |
| __infinity | i have problem with ffmpeg, i am googling for a hour now, but cant figure it out http://pastebin.com/EWaUvNrb | 13:41 |
| iptable | DanielaDav, and that's the quesion you need to ask as my expertiese ends here. | 13:41 |
| DanielaDav | dconf? | 13:41 |
| DanielaDav | dconf is by user... isn't it? | 13:41 |

| DanielaDav | But I didn't change something terrible.... only mousekeys_enable... | 13:42 |
| DanielaDav | And changed again, but it didn't work. | 13:42 |
| Munster | Hi | 13:42 |
| histo | DanielaDav: did you maybe bump something else | 13:42 |
| histo | Munster: hi | 13:42 |
| arseus__ | Thanks histo! | 13:42 |
| arunpyasi | guys. what will happen if ltp will be available with the distro by default | 13:43 |

| histo | [[thufir]]: bootable usb stick of what? | 13:45 |
| DanielaDav | How do I put it into the list? | 13:45 |

The problem, ladies and gentlemen, is when I switch to or from VPN, my DNS settings do not change. I have no choice but to workaround by manually editing /etc/resolv.conf and if I don't set chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf the dns settings are REVERTED back to my default wired network, over | 13:51 |

| ubottu | Guest70237: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:51 |
| subz3r0 | --> sudo dd if=path.to.iso.file of=/dev/sdb bs=1MB | 13:51 |
| subz3r0 | you also may want to check with gparted later if it got the bootflag, if not, set it with gparted | 13:51 |

| sprung | *my network | 13:56 |
| histo | [[thufir]]: 5 maybe. | 13:56 |
| mark06 | Tii: this is all fault of these tools which aren't resistant to a simple missing quote from a config file... | 13:56 |
| histo | [[thufir]]: there is no output with dd but it's going | 13:56 |
| sprung | Munster, i like your idea but that doesn't fix my needing to switch between work, torguard and my regular wired network | 13:56 |
| hoa | hi every one | 13:56 |
| histo | sprung: restart the connection after adding them. | 13:56 |
| sprung | histo, doesn't work | 13:57 |
| mark06 | Tii: did you find the solution yourself? | 13:57 |
| sprung | i think my dnsmasq settings are messed up | 13:57 |
| histo | sprung: what happens then? | 13:57 |
| sprung | histo, it disconnects, reconnects and uses my default wired network settings not vpn settings | 13:57 |
| histo | sprung: doesn't work, doesn't do much to epxlain the issue | 13:57 |
| histo | sprung: you have your connections all messed up. | 13:58 |
| sprung | histo, okay, I type my dns ip's into the VPN settings in Network Manager, and no matter what i do or how many times i disconnect, reconnect, restart my computer, restart nm-applet, restart NetworkManager, etc, my dns settings for my vpn that i put in NetworkManager do not ever apply | 13:58 |
| sprung | histo, really? | 13:58 |
| sprung | i didn't know that! | 13:58 |
| Tii | You showed me that line, and I asked for an explanation for that awk stuff in #awk, simultaneously I saw "< /etc/ld.so.conf" and wondered what there would be in.... So I opened it up, and saw two lines | 13:59 |
| Tii | include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf | 13:59 |
| Tii | and include /usr/local/lib/* | 13:59 |
| Tii | and since the last line is exactly the directory in which all thos crazy .a files lie | 13:59 |
| sprung | upon an earlier suggestion in this channel a few days ago i discovered dnsmasq was not installed anymore, that i had somehow accidentally removed it. it is reinstalled now but i bet it is not set up right | 13:59 |
| sprung | perhaps it's not configured to work with dbus? i don't know enough about dnsmasq to verify | 14:00 |
| Tii | It was kind of oviously then... | 14:00 |
| histo | sprung: is dnsmasq a default package | 14:00 |
| sprung | histo, yes, it is | 14:00 |
| Tii | mark06, so without your research i would not have found this! Thank you for that ^^ | 14:00 |
| sprung | but reinstalling it doesn't bring back whatever default settings there were for it | 14:00 |
| Tii | mark06, and with research I mean that search in the configure script | 14:01 |
| histo | sprung: or you have some other program interfering | 14:02 |
| histo | !info dnsmasq | 14:03 |
| ubottu | dnsmasq (source: dnsmasq): Small caching DNS proxy and DHCP/TFTP server. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.68-1 (trusty), package size 14 kB, installed size 111 kB | 14:03 |
| sprung | i'm seeing forums with some other people complaining about my same issue no fixes though | 14:03 |
| histo | sprung: maybe see if networkmanager has any specific support | 14:04 |
| mark06 | Tii: you quoted out those two lines? I don't know that file but I'd assume they're not supposed to be quoted, my ld.so.conf has just "include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf" (unquoted) | 14:05 |
| sprung | Oh. That's interesting. in the /etc/dnsmasq.conf everything is commented out | 14:07 |
| Tii | mark06, Sorry, Server reboot ;) | I see we misunderstood each other... No quotes were in there.. The problem was the wildcard... | 14:07 |
| Munster | sprung, afaik NM doesn't use IPs to connect to vpn servers, only usernames and pwds are required to connect to vpn servers ...that's my experience | 14:07 |
| Tii | mark06, /usr/local/lib/* (that includes every .a file) I think it should be (like in the first line) /usr/local/lib/*.conf but I deleted the line and it worked already.... | 14:07 |
| sprung | Munster, right, but afterwards it's supposed to handle updating your DNS servers to whatever you set it to in your vpn config in NM | 14:08 |
| Tii | mark06, I've deleted it, because I think it doesn't belong there anyway | 14:08 |

| sprung | Munster, and that is the problem | 14:08 |
| sprung | Munster, my work VPN has private dns servers, you see. i can't just use 8.8.8.8 for everything | 14:09 |
| Munster | most vpns don't care what dns server you use, sprung | 14:09 |
| mark06 | Tii: ah now I get it... it should include conf files only, not *whatever* files, specially on a common location such as /usr/local/lib... I think that was a catastrophic edit to that file... I wonder who/what did... cause mine doesn't have that line of yours | 14:09 |
| sprung | Munster, This one does, we have private servers that i connect to behind the DMZ | 14:10 |
| Tii | mark06, yeah, I don't know where that came from either... but anyways.. ^^ | 14:10 |
| sprung | so i need the dns servers to update, which is a feature that is supposed to, and used to, work on my machine | 14:10 |
| Munster | ok sprung then I'm on thin ice regarding the private work type vpns. I'll back off :) | 14:11 |
| mark06 | Tii: yeah anyways... problem fixed... glad to have helped you out :) | 14:11 |
| Tii | mark06, :) | 14:11 |
| sprung | Munster, ok. just to educate you a little, when you connect to a network, if you have DNS servers (and search domains) set for that network manually in NetworkManager, which I do, NetworkManager is supposed to update those settings for you for your resolv.conf and that is what is not happening as it is supposed to. | 14:12 |
| Munster | sprung, sounds like a setting is needed in NM config that auto-updates the dns settings | 14:16 |
| gregor3005 | hi, i discovered my disk to search why my disk is getting full. i found some files under /var/tmp called sort* eg: sort43DxtM, sortMbv316, ... how can i find out who creates this files, the folder has currenty arround 16gb | 14:18 |
| alive4ever | Is it a multi user system? | 14:19 |
| alive4ever | You may find the owner by issuing 'ls -l' command | 14:19 |
| gregor3005 | alive4ever: i have some testusers but i use it only for myself | 14:19 |
| histo | gregor3005: if the files are open you can lsof searchterm | 14:19 |
| histo | * | 14:19 |
| gregor3005 | alive4ever: they are owned by root | 14:19 |
| gregor3005 | histo: this was also my first idea but the aren't open currently | 14:20 |
| alive4ever | just remove the files if you don't need them. | 14:20 |
| histo | gregor3005: who owns them? | 14:21 |
| gregor3005 | alive4ever: thats only the half solution because any process create these files, the last file was created today at 6:01 | 14:21 |
| gregor3005 | histo: root | 14:21 |
| alive4ever | If you are bothered with tmp folder getting bigger and bigger, you may safely create an entry to mount tmp as tmpfs filesystem - which is reased during system shutdown. | 14:21 |
| histo | gregor3005: they are in tmp so if you reboot they will be gon | 14:21 |
| gregor3005 | histo: at this time the nightly backup is running from another server which gets the files via ssh | 14:22 |
| histo | gregor3005: why are you backing up tmp | 14:22 |
| gregor3005 | histo: no i don't backup up the tmp folder, it was a sidenote | 14:22 |
| gregor3005 | histo: i checked the other workstations and server, i don't have these files anywhere there so i can exclude that the backup creates the files | 14:23 |
| histo | gregor3005: are they binary files? | 14:24 |
| gregor3005 | histo: "file" told me that these are "data" files but i can open it with vim. i see many wired filepath, hm it look like a problem with the backup software | 14:25 |
| zetheroo1 | does anyone know of a bootable tool which allows you to select which partition to boot the PC from? | 14:25 |
| gregor3005 | histo: i run the backup manually and check if files are created | 14:26 |
| histo | gregor3005: what 'backup' software are you using? | 14:26 |
| gregor3005 | histo: backuppc | 14:27 |

| zetheroo1 | I have a machine with a Windows recovery partition and I need something which shows me the available partitions and allows me to select which one to boot from .. | 14:28 |
| histo | zetheroo1: grub is a boot manager | 14:28 |
| histo | zetheroo1: you need an operating system installed on those partitions to boot to them. | 14:28 |
| zetheroo1 | histo: the recovery partition contains it's own OS | 14:29 |
| histo | zetheroo1: is there a reason you aren't using the regular way to boot the recovery partition? | 14:29 |

| histo | zetheroo1: What is your end goal? install windows? | 14:32 |
| histo | zetheroo1: well without the model I can't lookup the hotkey. | 14:32 |
| zetheroo1 | end goal is to restore to factory defaults from the recovery partition and then perform a dual boot with Ubuntu 14.04 | 14:33 |
| zetheroo1 | the hotkey is F11 | 14:33 |
| zetheroo1 | I already looked it up | 14:33 |

| sprung | I figured it out i think | 14:35 |
| sprung | my /etc/resolv.conf is not a symbolic link to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf | 14:36 |
| jhutchins | zetheroo1: On a properly configured dual-boot installation, grub will present a menu that will allow you to choose which OS to boot. | 14:36 |
| histo | zetheroo1: I can't think of a way. | 14:36 |
| histo | jhutchins: he wants to boot the recovery partition without usign the hotkey | 14:37 |
| histo | zetheroo1: you'd have to probably install grub and create an entry for the recovery partition then have it boot that. | 14:37 |

| Guest71827 | sprung, how do I do that? | 15:24 |
| sprung | Guest71827, sorry i read to quickly. I think you are going about this all wrong. Don't edit files remotely via SSHFS, use vim remotely, and run screen remotely so if you disconnect you can reconnect as if you were never interrupted | 15:25 |
| Guest62078 | o_O ninguém tem assunto aqui né | 15:26 |
| sprung | Guest71827, screen will soon be your new best friend | 15:26 |
| Guest71827 | sprung, yeah I'm slowly getting better at using vim. | 15:26 |
| sprung | Guest71827, or any text editor. point being, whatever you are doing, if you do it in "screen" if you get disconnected you can reconnect and reattach to the screen, uninterrupted. This is good for editing files and for processes that take a long time to complete. | 15:27 |
| ger | hi | 15:27 |
| Guest71827 | sprung, oh I see. kinda like tmux | 15:28 |
| c4i0 | Hello for everyone | 15:28 |
| nerium | Is it possible to check the status of a process? | 15:29 |
| sprung | Guest71827, tmux is screen but better. i wanted to start you off simple. If you are using tmux remotely you have no reason to use sshfs or screen | 15:29 |
| nerium | I would like to see if it's frozen | 15:29 |
| sprung | nerium, ps aux | grep whatever | 15:29 |
| nerium | sprung: How would that help=? | 15:29 |
| ger | i installed ubuntu now on vmware workstation (windows 8) and i dont see the the others partitions..how can i mount them? | 15:29 |
| Guest71827 | sprung, no I just know of tmux. I guess the conclusion is that I need to get use to vim | 15:30 |
| alive4ever | topper4125: it's better to use raspbian | 15:30 |
| sprung | nerium, you do. screen is simpler to use than tmux and is more likely to be installed or able to be installed on your remote server. | 15:30 |
| nerium | sprung: Wrong person | 15:30 |
| sprung | Guest71827, there's a little tutorial http://www.tecmint.com/screen-command-examples-to-manage-linux-terminals/ | 15:31 |
| sprung | nerium, my bad | 15:31 |
| sprung | Guest71827, or here http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_screen | 15:31 |
| alive4ever | Surely, tmux is a great terminal manager. | 15:31 |
| alive4ever | You may want to add byobu for a fancy tmux look. | 15:32 |
| sprung | alive4ever, indeed it is but it's less likely to be installed already and has more prerequisites, and is more complicated to use than screen | 15:32 |
| Guest71827 | sprung, thanks I'll check it out and suck it up and use vim | 15:32 |
| david___1 | hello everybody | 15:33 |
| sprung | Guest71827, screen or tmux if you want to get fancy is an absolutely indispensable sysadmin tool, otherwise close to 5pm i would have to stay late for a long-running process to finish. with screen or tmux i can pick up at home where i left off | 15:33 |
| ger | i installed ubuntu now on vmware workstation (windows 8) and i dont see the the others partitions..how can i mount them? | 15:33 |
| david___1 | question: What would be the command to create a new folder for each word in a file? | 15:33 |
| david___1 | is that even possible using commandline? | 15:34 |
| alive4ever | Both screen and tmux are great. Screen is the first, so it uses ctrl+a keybinding. Tmux comes later, so it uses ctrl+b keybinding | 15:35 |
| MonkeyDust | david___1 i'm sure the people in #bash know best | 15:35 |
| david___1 | ok thanks, I'll ask there! ;-) | 15:35 |
| Pici | alive4ever: theres a config that comes with tmux that allows you to use the screen keybindings. | 15:35 |
| ger | i installed ubuntu now on vmware workstation (windows 8) and i dont see the the others partitions..how can i mount them? | 15:37 |
| halberd | I have done a full installation of ubuntu to a flash drive. But now I've changed my mind and want to put it on the hard drive - dual booting with Windows. Is it possible to do this without performing a fresh installation, perhaps by copying the ubuntu image from the flash drive to the hdd? | 15:37 |
| abdeljalil | hey how can i get my lx-3000 to work? | 15:38 |
| abdeljalil | on lubuntu, sorry again | 15:38 |
| MonkeyDust | ger if you don't get an answer here, try #vmware | 15:38 |
| alive4ever | halberd: it's possible | 15:39 |
| halberd | great! how do I do it, alive4ever ? | 15:39 |
| alive4ever | just prepare an ext4 partition, then boot you ubuntu live dvd | 15:40 |

| alive4ever | when it's finished booting, launch a terminal. Mount both the usb and the new partition | 15:41 |
| alive4ever | then copy the entire usb flashdisk content using tar command | 15:42 |
| halberd | alive4ever, but that would include the usb boot sector right? | 15:42 |
| halberd | and do I not want to do that? | 15:42 |
| luisja1006 | It is possible to install MS Office 2010 using PlayOnLinux on (X)ubuntu 14.04? | 15:42 |

| alive4ever | halberd, nope. Just recreate the boot sector using grub-install /dev/sda and update-grub | 15:43 |
| mojtaba | Hi, I am running ubuntu 14.04 lts and I have installed virtualbox. Does anybody know how should I install additional guest? ultimately I want to give a try to Fedora in VB. | 15:43 |
| garheade | luisja1006, it's been a while since i've bothered but the PlayOnLinux walkthrough should be pretty straight forward. | 15:43 |
| halberd | I'm also concerned because that ubuntu on the flash drive is set up to mount the flash drive partitions in /etc/fstab as / and /home and swap | 15:43 |
| luisja1006 | garheade downloaded the required files, but everytime I try to install the setup.exe using PlayOnLinux wine crashes | 15:44 |
| halberd | so I guess I would need to change /etc/fstab running off the flash drive, so that it mounts hard drive partitions in place of the flash drive ones, before I copy the ubuntu image? | 15:44 |
| garheade | luisja1006 is it giving you a specific error? | 15:44 |
| alive4ever | the command to copy the entire usb contents is 'sudo tar -cf - -C /path-to-usb-disk-mount | sudo tar -xvf - -C /path-to-new-partition-mount' | 15:44 |

| trijntje | !als | 15:45 |
| halberd | yes but I'm saying I don't think the ubuntu image would work exactly as-is, because for one thing it's set up to mount flash drive partitions, not hard drive partitions | 15:45 |
| alive4ever | then update the grub by chrooting into new partition | 15:46 |
| hsnopi | <abdeljalil> just ask the question and people will respond fi they know | 15:46 |

| OerHeks | abdeljalil, read back please, you have been answered | 15:46 |
| Beldar | abdeljalil, Did you see the answer from OerHeks? | 15:46 |
| halberd | alive4ever, is that tar command the equivalent of using dd? | 15:47 |
| alive4ever | no, it's not performing bit to bit operation. It just copied the file exactly with same permissions through the tar stream. | 15:48 |
| alive4ever | I think it's safer than dd copy. | 15:48 |
| garheade | luisja1006 are you running 32bit or 64bit office? | 15:49 |

| luisja1006 | 64 bit | 15:50 |
| luisja1006 | garheade | 15:50 |
| huydsert | awesome, mouse is acting weird in 14.04, don't know what to do | 15:50 |
| huydsert | Are there mouse drivers or something similar i could download? | 15:50 |
| sprung | first make sure your mouse isn't dirty | 15:50 |
| huydsert | It's working fine under windows 7 | 15:50 |
| halberd | alive4ever, so I would then do that for each of the partitions on the flash drive right, and a corresponding partition on the hdd | 15:50 |
| ActionParsnip | huydsert: does the system have a make and model?> | 15:51 |
| sprung | huydsert, what mouse, and define "weird" | 15:51 |
| mojtaba | Hi, I am running ubuntu 14.04 lts and I have installed virtualbox. Does anybody know how should I install additional guest? ultimately I want to give a try to Fedora in VB. | 15:51 |
| garheade | luisja1006, POL/Wine doesnt support the 64bit version of office. | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | huydsert: isit a USB mouse or a touchpad? | 15:51 |
| halberd | and then I would update /etc/fstab before I boot into the hdd partition | 15:51 |
| luisja1006 | garheade oh, okay. | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | mojtaba: use the menu at the top of the virtualbox wndow. | 15:51 |
| huydsert | it's a 5$ mouse I got from the sop, USB, and it seems like it doesn't give priorities to windows correctly | 15:51 |
| luisja1006 | thanks ! | 15:51 |
| garheade | luisja1006, anytime. | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | huydsert: have you tried a different USB port? | 15:51 |
| huydsert | when it's working, it seems to work in only 1 window, even if I alt tab into another one | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | huydsert: have you tried setting legacy mode in BIOS? | 15:52 |
| huydsert | yeah, I've tried all 3 different ports on the laptop, and tried the touchpad | 15:52 |
| huydsert | what's legacy mode in BIOS? | 15:52 |
| sprung | yeah your mouse is probably using usb version 1 | 15:52 |
| mojtaba | ActionParsnip: I did, but it seams it did not install it! | 15:52 |
| ActionParsnip | huydsert: its a setting, in the BIOS | 15:52 |
| ActionParsnip | mojtaba: I suggest you ask in #vbox | 15:52 |
| halberd | alive4ever, ok thanks, this makes sense I think, and if it doesn't work it doesn't seem like it could harm anything. One more question: is it safe to install grub over the windows bootloader on the hdd? | 15:53 |
| mojtaba | ActionParsnip: ok, thanks | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | mojtaba: I believe if you power off the VM, then set the guest additions to be mounted at boot, it will show more readily | 15:53 |
| huydsert | would legacy mode affect anything other than the mouse? is it "safe" to try it? | 15:53 |
| mojtaba | ActionParsnip: ok, thx | 15:54 |
| alive4ever | halberd, just do it once to transfer your already-installed ubuntu to the new partition you intend to put ubuntu. | 15:54 |
| Hoihe | Ahoy! Does anyone know if it's possible to have two versions of the properitary NVidia drivers? | 15:54 |
| Hoihe | There are a few WINE based games that require an older one to run smoothly.. | 15:54 |
| halberd | alive4ever, just do what once? | 15:54 |
| Hoihe | However, the OpenGL games available on Steam run better with the newest one | 15:54 |
| halberd | install GRUB? | 15:55 |
| alive4ever | halberd, copying the files via tar command. | 15:55 |
| iceburnt | have you played a game in ubuntu? could you tell me about the simulator city games named? | 15:55 |
| Nach0z | grublife4lyfe | 15:55 |
| halberd | oh, but I have three partitions on the flash drive so I'd need to copy all three | 15:55 |
| alive4ever | Do you make separate partitions for boot, root, and home? | 15:56 |
| halberd | yes I did alive4ever | 15:57 |
| halberd | well actually the partitions are for root, home, and swap | 15:57 |
| alive4ever | No need to do it for swap | 15:58 |
| halberd | I've heard it's more efficient to have a swap partition | 15:58 |
| Beldar | halberd, If you have a place to put the clone use clonezilla to copy the usb, it save the mbr. | 15:58 |
| Beldar | saves* | 15:58 |
| alive4ever | Yes, just make a new partition and initiate the paartition using mkswap command | 15:58 |
| halberd | that's the thing Beldar , there's an existing windows installation so I can't just do a straight copy from sdb to sda | 15:59 |
| huydsert | To boot in Legacy mode all I have to do is Disable the UEFI boot? | 15:59 |
| alive4ever | s/paartition/partition/p | 15:59 |
| Beldar | halberd, That is not a straight copy | 15:59 |
| xeon123 | I have one partition that I want to mount as /opt in my ubuntu OS. I have already an /opt dir in the partition where the OS is. I want to point the /opt to the other partition. How I do this? | 15:59 |
| Beldar | halberd, from sdb to sda, but a clone | 15:59 |
| halberd | what's the difference? | 16:00 |
| alive4ever | xeon123: copy the entire content of /opt using tarthen add an entry that point to /opt in your fstab | 16:00 |
| Beldar | halberd, You have the clone on another hd or flash as packets for insertion to sda | 16:00 |
| Beldar | halberd, This is easy stuff in general you can just make a unallocated and copy and paste with gparted as well, you just have to load grub | 16:02 |
| halberd | alive4ever, instead of mkswap could I just do dd if=/dev/sdb3 of=/dev/sda6 | 16:02 |
| halberd | if /dev/sdb3 is my swap partition and /dev/sda6 is the new swap partition | 16:02 |
| Beldar | halberd, I would not move swap, just make one later | 16:02 |
| alive4ever | halberd: that's a waste of time. Swap partition doesn't need to be exactly the same. | 16:03 |
| halberd | ok | 16:03 |
| Beldar | halberd, dd can really mess stuff up if ran wrong and you loose the original I would clone it or copy and paste with gparted, both leave the usb intact | 16:04 |

| ActionParsnip | ikonia: steam is gaining pace, rapidly | 16:39 |
| ikonia | I don't believe it is | 16:40 |
| Praxi | steam is yes, but the majority of the triple A titles, or most popular games are not | 16:40 |
| ikonia | it's pretty much non-existant | 16:40 |
| bobRoss | i have looked at a few sites and it seems linux firewalls are a little out of my skillset | 16:40 |
| ikonia | so building a gaming PC for the native platform of the game you want is more advisable then trying to build a gaming PC for linux then making games work in wrappers like wine | 16:40 |
| Praxi | have more games through steam on my mac than my linux box amazingly | 16:41 |

| fernando_ | what do you? | 17:09 |
| gqgunhed | sorry, last answer was directed to bobRoss | 17:10 |
| phelix | Would anyone have an idea why when ever I do anything that makes my system work like type or move a window or a drop down or something of that nature it causes my sound to chop | 17:10 |
| bobRoss | the only thing im not sure i like yet is the ubuntu desktop. it feels very busy to me but im sure ill get used to it. | 17:10 |
| gluesniffmonkey | Why would a cd-r not appear on an apple imac slot opening DVD drive while it is fully visible to an external usb DVD drive? | 17:11 |
| gqgunhed | phelix: try "top" to see what process eats your CPU cycles. Or is your CPU idle and you have hickups? | 17:12 |
| bobRoss | that is not a slam on ubuntu I LOVE how freaking fast and so tiny it is after installing | 17:12 |
| bobRoss | more a slam on my old windows setup | 17:12 |
| phelix | gqgunhed: Well. I am running spotify through wine.. i wonder if that could be the cause? there isn't anything to high in cpu usage running | 17:13 |
| gqgunhed | gluesniffmonkey: Depends on the format used to write the data on the optical medium. Or your imac drive can't read dvd-r (MINUS R)? | 17:13 |
| plepzz | Does anyone know if a Samsung 830 SSD is considered reliable for server use? | 17:13 |
| gqgunhed | gluesniffmonkey: RockRidge extensions, Joliet, etc. | 17:13 |
| fernando_ | any corrupt police? | 17:13 |
| gluesniffmonkey | gqgunhed, burned as iso for installation. It won't boot. | 17:13 |
| ActionParsnip | bobRoss: there are alternatives. You dont have to use Gnome + Compiz + Unity shell | 17:14 |
| ActionParsnip | bobRoss: XFCE is much simpler (and uses fewer resources) | 17:14 |
| * gqgunhed was slower than ActionParsnip in typing XFCE | 17:14 | |
| ActionParsnip | gluesniffmonkey: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? Did you burn as slowly as you could? | 17:14 |
| Ryan6578 | Okay, I'm back. | 17:15 |
| gluesniffmonkey | ActionParsnip, I have another cd. I am going to try burning slowly. | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | gluesniffmonkey: check the ISO is ok first too | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | gluesniffmonkey: you can do this using MD5 testing | 17:15 |
| gqgunhed | phelix: maybe. Haven't tried that combination. Does sound choke when playing local sound files? | 17:15 |
| bobRoss | when I was researching I saw one ubuntu distro that had xfce as the default but ive already got this installed and all the software i need/want so i dont know if a reinstall of a different distro is worth the trouble | 17:15 |
| gluesniffmonkey | ActionParsnip, I have done an MD5sum | 17:16 |
| Ryan6578 | I'm having a problem where when I load something from my flash drive (Ubuntu install, DBAN, etc), whenever I make a keystroke, it "disables" the keyboard. I'm not able to type, etc. | 17:16 |

| * bobRoss | 17:16 | |
| Ryan6578 | And it freezes the Ubuntu install. | 17:16 |
| ActionParsnip | gluesniffmonkey: are you using the default Windows CD burner? | 17:17 |
| gluesniffmonkey | Ubuntu. Brassero | 17:17 |
| biledemon | bobRoss: you don't have to reinstall. You can have multiple desktop environments installed at the same time. Choose which one you want at the login screen. All files are shared | 17:17 |
| ActionParsnip | bobRoss: install the xfce4 package and log off, you can log into either session on the login screen | 17:17 |
| bobRoss | really? does it not screw up the basic setup? | 17:17 |
| Teltariat | How is everyone managing building and hosting in source control their private tree of Ubuntu packages, if you would prefer not to use Ubuntu's PPA service? | 17:17 |

| bobRoss | wow! | 17:18 |
| ActionParsnip | mish: try launching it from the terminal, the output may give clues | 17:18 |
| Ryan6578 | Anyone know what may be causing my issue? | 17:18 |
| kittykitty | anyone know why the ubuntu backup tool tries to backup the .gvfs and .cache/dconf files? lol | 17:18 |
| ActionParsnip | bobRoss: you can install all the DEs you can get hold of and store, then choose what you want at login | 17:18 |
| mish | ActionParsnip: tried that, nothing comes back...I mean it successfully runs but no useful info | 17:19 |
| bobRoss | i freakin love ubuntu! :) | 17:19 |

| ActionParsnip | bobRoss: your OS is flexible | 17:19 |
| kittykitty | mish, i had that problem with chrome once, i just made a new .desktop file for it | 17:19 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, in your opinion should we be using the Ubuntu Backup Tool or are there better solutions you would recommend? | 17:20 |
| ActionParsnip | sprung: I use a cron'd rsync job. Its as old as the hills | 17:20 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, just curious because you've helped me probably about 20 times now | 17:20 |
| sprung | fair enough | 17:20 |
| ActionParsnip | sprung: its dirty but it works | 17:20 |
| mish | kittykitty: will look into that, thank you | 17:20 |
| kittykitty | Ive actually got it ignoring the .gvfs and .config/dconf files but it still says it cant back them up... like... what??? | 17:21 |
| TuxRescue | could somebody tell me how i can find out where the popup window "enter password to unlock your key chain" comes from? | 17:21 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, yep and using the right switches will only do incremental | 17:21 |
| sprung | *differential not incremental | 17:21 |
| kittykitty | ActionParsnip, nothing wrong with using deja-dup for ssh backups though right? :P | 17:21 |
| sprung | rsync does ssh, just fyi | 17:22 |
| ActionParsnip | kittykitty: not had to use it but i'd imagine it's fine | 17:22 |
| kittykitty | i like seeing a gui tbh, i know its ubuntu but i have a screen on here :P | 17:22 |
| kittykitty | ActionParsnip, any ideas on ignoring .gvfs and .cache/dconf? | 17:22 |
| ActionParsnip | sprung: I just need a copy, just updating the changed files on a USB drive | 17:22 |

| darkblue_b | hi - I have a new 14.04 setup with several hard-disks correctly mounted.. I added a new 3TB disk and did the unthunkable, I hit FORMAT (QUICK) in gnome-disks on the WRONG 3TB disk.. so.. I admit it.. in gparted I chose "attempt data rescue" and let GPART run overnight.. any hints, pages or other info ? | 17:25 |
| kittykitty | darkblue_b, sounds like its all lost tbh | 17:27 |
| TuxRescue | darkblue_b: there are tools to recover data when you formatted the disk | 17:29 |
| TuxRescue | gparted is not the one i have in mind, hang on | 17:29 |
| TuxRescue | darkblue_b: what partition type it was? | 17:30 |
| darkblue_b | yeah good question.. I suspect it was bsd | 17:30 |
| darkblue_b | kittykitty I have a habit of keeping a text file of `ls -lR` for big disks.. not up to date, but I just looked and I do have a listing like that for this drive | 17:31 |
| TuxRescue | Testdisk | 17:31 |
| darkblue_b | ah | 17:31 |

| ActionParsnip | darkblue_b: never seen that in my life.....probably a really old BIOS..... | 17:50 |

| JustSighDudes | Can I ask about putty here? | 17:50 |
| darkblue_b | ActionParsnip: you are confusing a few things.. BIOS is not the source of this | 17:50 |
| ActionParsnip | darkblue_b: why do you not have backups? | 17:51 |
| darkblue_b | I have extensive backups | 17:51 |
| bobRoss | i second the need for putty info | 17:51 |
| darkblue_b | I suggest putty be put to a merciful death | 17:51 |

| JustSighDudes | ActionParsnip: No. I have putty on my work (windows computer). I want it to open links in my local browser instead of w3m when using newsbeuter | 17:57 |
| ikonia | no | 17:57 |
| ikonia | putty doesn't open links in external applications | 17:57 |
| ikonia | putty has nothing to do with opening links | 17:57 |
| NthDegree | TeraJL, most likely no | 17:59 |
| NthDegree | TeraJL, if it supports XP there's Hiren's Boot CD | 17:59 |
| NthDegree | that lets you boot to a minimalist Live XP | 17:59 |
| OerHeks | NthDegree, hirens is illegal, so offtopic in #ubuntu | 18:00 |
| NthDegree | OerHeks, ah, my bad. | 18:00 |
| OerHeks | better suggest freedos ;-) | 18:01 |
| NthDegree | OerHeks, if it's Windows-only, FreeDOS won't work. But there is always Windows Hyper-V server | 18:01 |
| NthDegree | they gave away 2008 free of charge | 18:01 |
| NthDegree | throw it on an External HDD and then it's a free, legal Windows | 18:01 |
| NthDegree | OerHeks, in an ideal world, I'd say camp outside the corporate office of the SSD vendor until they make a way to update under Linux ;-p | 18:02 |

| afidegnum | to use nginx and the rest can use apache | 18:13 |
| ikonia | afidegnum: you can't - you can't run two web servers at the same tim eon the same port | 18:13 |
| ikonia | bubble_beam: then re-install kubuntu-desktop and it will re-pull in the dependencies | 18:14 |
| afidegnum | like domain1.com will be on apache and domain2.com will be on nginx | 18:14 |
| ikonia | afidegnum: can't do that | 18:14 |

| Sunstream|Ubu14 | Who here was helping me with Ubuntu earlier | 18:21 |
| bubble_beam | ikonia, its showing unmet dependencies | 18:21 |
| afidegnum | ikonia: I am installing a web application on apache which seems to be very slow as well as lot of timeout | 18:21 |
| afidegnum | so I am thinking of a faster web server hence thinking of using nginx | 18:22 |
| bubble_beam | can i reinstall ubuntu without losing just my data , ikonia ? | 18:22 |
| genii | afidegnum: Conceivably you may be able to do something with a custom xinetd which directs incoming to whichever httpd is appropriate. But I wouldn't be much help for assisting with that, years since I tinkered with inetd/xinetd | 18:22 |
| ikonia | afidegnum: right, so why don't you debug that rather than make a terrible setup that you appear unable to manage | 18:22 |
| Guma | I was wondering. 14.04 Desktop I changes one of interface to static IP. This was done System Settings -> Network. After reboots it all works great but /etc/network/interfaces does not have my changes. Is there another place where such changes are stored? | 18:22 |
| afidegnum | I tuned my database configuration, even installed mariadb with TokuDB storage engine | 18:23 |
| afidegnum | I even tuned keepalive on apache | 18:23 |
| afidegnum | but it still didn't help | 18:23 |
| ikonia | afidegnum: so where is the performance being blocked ? | 18:23 |
| Pici | genii: The normal way of doing this is to use apache/nginx/whatever to reverse proxy certain requests to other internal web servers. | 18:24 |
| genii | Pici: Ah, OK. Haven't had to learn about that yet. | 18:24 |
| afidegnum | ikonia: frankly, I don't know I tried all my best but I suspect the applicaiton heavinness is also making this up | 18:25 |
| bubble_beam | ikonia, thanks i got it :) | 18:25 |
| bubble_beam | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuReinstallation | 18:25 |
| afidegnum | so i am thinking of using nginx | 18:25 |
| ikonia | afidegnum: ok, so if you don't know, making a more complex process (when you don't understand it) for no reason is not a wise move | 18:25 |
| afidegnum | but the fact is many reported performance benefits using nginx | 18:26 |
| ikonia | afidegnum: you're just being blind, if you want to do this, carry out | 18:27 |

| juliohm | What can be the source of the issue? I'm out of ideas | 19:13 |
| MarcN | juliohm, it is probably formatted as vfat all on /dev/sda (not the usual /dev/sda1). Try from the commandline: sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt | 19:14 |
| jasabella | so my understanding of the release cycle is that packages you install with apt-get will be the same version as those found on your distribution version's iso, just with updates from ubuntu? | 19:15 |
| juliohm | MarcN, it's exactly that command that doesn't work | 19:15 |
| juliohm | mount: no medium found on /dev/sdc | 19:15 |
| MarcN | juliohm, for debugging also try: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdc | 19:15 |
| MarcN | juliohm, what does cat /proc/partitions says? Maybe it isn't /dev/sdc | 19:16 |
| juliohm | MarcN, no output for fdisk | 19:16 |
| MarcN | juliohm, info also found in "dmesg" | 19:16 |
| juliohm | let me check /proc/partitions | 19:16 |
| juliohm | MarcN, it's not listed in /proc/partitions | 19:16 |
| MarcN | juliohm, I had one similar from some tradeshow swag once. | 19:16 |
| MarcN | juliohm, unplug it. plug it back and then do dmesg | 19:17 |
| juliohm | yes, this card was from an event my advisor went to | 19:17 |
| juliohm | I did it already, let me check it again | 19:17 |
| l_h_o_u | Xubuntu 14.04, i find a file in home "Core". I removed it but he comeback everytime. Thanks :) | 19:18 |
| juliohm | MarcN, dmesg output: http://pastebin.com/MF6RsiST | 19:18 |
| juliohm | The udev rule I've tried is... | 19:19 |
| juliohm | SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="090c", MODE="0666" | 19:19 |
| juliohm | As this is the idVendor showing on dmesg | 19:19 |
| MarcN | juliohm, should be /dev/sdc | 19:19 |
| juliohm | yes | 19:19 |
| juliohm | and the file is create in /dev | 19:19 |
| juliohm | I can ls /dev | 19:20 |
| juliohm | and it's there | 19:20 |
| juliohm | I just can't mount it | 19:20 |
| MarcN | juliohm, and what about sudo fdisk /dev/sdc show? | 19:20 |
| joseph07 | [A | 19:20 |
| juliohm | MarcN, fdisk: unable to open /dev/sdc: No medium found | 19:20 |
| MarcN | juliohm, I've never had to muck with udev for mass storage devices | 19:20 |
| juliohm | MarcN, I did played with udev for my cell phones | 19:21 |
| juliohm | It worked for two phones I had | 19:21 |
| MarcN | juliohm, hmm. yeah for MTP phones and android hacking... | 19:21 |

| daftykins | juliohm: hah, that's probably more down to freenode having issues today. it does get manic in here 24/7 | 19:23 |
| MarcN | juliohm, hmm, I've had USB disk present as both a CD and a HD. Both /dev/sr1 and /dev/sdx showed up when plugged in. Are there other unknown /dev/ devices? | 19:23 |
| juliohm | MarcN, let me check... | 19:23 |
| MarcN | juliohm, anything show up on the side of nautilus filemanager when plug in/out? | 19:23 |
| dj_ | Why does dropbox ask me to restart nautilus? | 19:24 |
| MarcN | juliohm, trick: ls /dev/* > x.x ; plug in the device; ls /dev/* > y.y ; diff x.x y.y | 19:24 |
| juliohm | MarcN, I'm actually running KDE | 19:24 |
| juliohm | let me do the diff trick | 19:24 |
| dj_ | anyone know Why does dropbox ask me to restart nautilus? | 19:25 |
| OerHeks | dj_, after install ? | 19:25 |
| dj_ | after turning on the computer | 19:25 |
| MarcN | dj_, probably reload some shared library | 19:25 |
| dj_ | So is it normal? | 19:26 |
| juliohm | MarcN, sg3 is also created when I plug the card | 19:26 |
| MarcN | dj_, should be one time needed (until dropbox upgrades again) | 19:26 |
| MarcN | juliohm, try mounting that. May be read only | 19:26 |
| juliohm | let me see... | 19:26 |
| dj_ | MarcN: Thanks | 19:26 |
| bekks | MarcN: srX indicates a read only device, not a cdrom in particular. | 19:26 |
| n1n0 | installing gdm on 14.04 disabled the ubuntu load | 19:27 |
| juliohm | MarcN, mount: /dev/sg3 is not a block device | 19:27 |
| Poultra | allo toi | 19:27 |
| n1n0 | had this problem with 13.10: http://askubuntu.com/questions/223501/ubuntu-gets-stuck-in-a-login-loop | 19:27 |
| n1n0 | and also now on 14 | 19:27 |

| cipher___ | I'm running ubuntu server and connecting from windows via ssh. It seems the more data streamed the quicker the connection fails. (forwarding x11 takes seconds), editing files minutes, idling: hours. | 19:28 |

| jhutchins | What tool(s) is/are used in 14.04 to control daemon startup? | 20:13 |
| aarcane | jhutchins, upstart + service | 20:16 |
| aarcane | jhutchins, the release was getting prepped too soon to switch to systemd | 20:17 |
| jhutchins | aarcane: What do I use instead of chkconfig? | 20:18 |
| jhutchins | aarcane: ...or rcconf? I installed sshd, but it wasn't in the list of Services in the GUI config menu, so I couldn't turn it off from there. | 20:19 |
| aarcane | I've heard of chkconfig, but never used it. it's an archaic and barbaric tool. You'll have to either ask someone else (they'll respond soon enough if they know) or be more specific | 20:19 |
| aarcane | try service sshd stop; or service ssh stop; | 20:19 |
| jhutchins | aarcane: chkconfig manages the symlinks in the rc?.d directories to enable/disable dameon start/stop in various runlevels. | 20:20 |

| ubottu | ThatGuy: 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%20Mode | 20:23 |
| jhutchins | ThatGuy: figure out whether you have lightdm, gdm, xdm or whatever, use the article above to disable it. Start/stop manually with the service command as required. | 20:23 |

| ObrienDave | ominomi, might try changing keyboard layout | 21:51 |
| ominomi | ObrienDave, it does that for every layout iäve tried. iäm trying the swedish layout right now | 21:52 |
| ominomi | ObrienDave: Okay, I'm using my old worn out IBM keyboard right now. It doesn't seem to have this problem like the Logitech one does. | 21:55 |

| ubottu | blade57: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 22:16 |
| MrSendova | You can also install components separatly but it depends on your needs (eg: do you need php or you will host only static content) | 22:18 |

| histo | blade57: use a proxy | 22:28 |
| MrSendova | babetyboo: I'm not a wordpress expert but if you want to add wordpress templates you have to find templates made for wordpress. Anyway, if you have more wordpress questions i suggest you to move to #wordpress or go google it | 22:29 |
| babetyboo | a proxy app? | 22:29 |
| k1l_ | babetyboo: that is not a ubuntu or chromium question, that is a wordpress question | 22:29 |
| blade57 | histo: we have most poxy blocked | 22:29 |

| histo | blade57: what is it blocking exactly that you are trying to circumvent? | 22:30 |
| blade57 | histo: some site but not most | 22:30 |
| k1l_ | blade57: i would suggest you talk to your IT department about that | 22:30 |
| babetyboo | if you can point me in the riht direction i can take it from there to ssk out | 22:30 |
| MrSendova | blade57: Is using tor an option? | 22:30 |
| histo | blade57: sshuttle is a nice way out. | 22:31 |

| histo | marknew: well you need grub then | 22:43 |
| k1l_ | marknew: then set the timeout to 0. but if ubuntu is the only install it should not display grub | 22:44 |
| CooLBALL | how long can the installer take on kernel source? | 22:44 |
| k1l_ | marknew: or run a "sudo update-grub" that will renew the grub menue and make ubuntu the nr.1 | 22:44 |
| marknew | It displayed GRUB because there was bootloader information for Windows on a second hard drive. | 22:44 |
| histo | marknew: remove the windows entry and timeout and regenerate your grub.cfg | 22:45 |
| marknew | It was placed in a "System Reserved" partition on the second drive. | 22:45 |
| CooLBALL | please i am bugging out | 22:45 |
| wolfy1339 | i checked out a post on askubuntu and they had TERM=xterm-color and mine is TERM=cygwin, how do i change that? Ubuntu Server 14.04, i added the alias ls for ls --color, uncommented the line with force | 22:45 |
| k1l_ | marknew: you need grub for booting. | 22:45 |

| kingbeowolf | histo, gnome disk utility using the benchmark funciton | 22:46 |
| marknew | Thanks. Is it safe to remove the "System Reserved" partition from the second hard drive? | 22:47 |
| kcdehimposter | kil_: Here is a paste of what happens when I try to do the uninstall: http://pastebin.com/PsL3Me6e | 22:47 |

| CooLBALL | i am bugging out please help me should the installer take 20 minutes on something kernel source? | 22:47 |
| daftykins | marknew: you don't want to boot Windows anymore? | 22:47 |
| marknew | Correct. | 22:47 |

| kcdehimposter | Does anyone know how I can switch my primary desktop environment? I think it's set as gnome, but I want to set it back to unity. | 23:30 |
| ObrienDave | should be able to select it from the logon screen | 23:31 |
| kcdehimposter | I have it switched partially over to the unity login scren, but I still get the loading gnome screen on startup. Unity is really glitchy and I can't see my desktop. | 23:32 |
| pavi45 | Deihmos: I think NTFS , the one which comes default on those windows 8 machines . I had to manually select disable uefi boot and use normal boot to boot via a live usb . but I cant access the filesystem | 23:32 |
| cody__ | A while back I installed xmonad on my xubuntu install and have been using it ever since. I'd like to use xubuntu now though but it isn't working. I try to select it at the login screen and it tries to login then takes me back to the login screen. | 23:33 |

| pavi45 | daftykins: there are some files in windows C partition , I am not sure if its actually normal NTFS partition as I was unable to access the files. | 23:39 |
