Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* [00:00] eam, Are talking about like -Wl, --as needed on flags ? If so, I have issues with that as well,, particularly on Python apps (F2PY), leaving it out on Ubuntu builds is ok, as it prevents dupes anyway, whereas Debian build servers will complain. [00:00] eam: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment there is also this [00:00] ki7mt: yes exactly [00:01] eam, You dont need it on Ubuntu build servers. [00:01] ki7mt: it appears the linking strategy was designed around eventually linking a C program, but I don't see how it works with perl/python dlopen()ing a stub [00:02] ki7mt: the thing is, the resulting object won't link because some of the libraries it requires aren't added as DT_NEEDED [00:02] eam, I've not narrowed down the exact root cause, but the work around for me is to leave it out on the linker for Ubuntu servers. [00:03] I think I have a handle on exactly what's going on, but what I can't understand is the intent behind the change (that Natty doc is where the change occured) [00:03] eam, I like all the libs ins ${LIBS} lin -lpthread -lportaudio etc etc, then let call ${LIBS} on the target line, [00:03] I link .. .. [00:04] ki7mt: yeah, the specific toolchain change (from that natty doc) is that -lfoo is now ignored in certain cases [00:04] the doc recommends simply reordering the args to gcc, but that's less than useful when dealing with a large project with generated builds [00:05] eam, All the dupe links are ignored in Ubuntu, not so in Debian and it moans about it. [00:05] yeah, the problem is these aren't dupe links in this case [00:05] I end up with a so that never links my library [00:06] eam, That sounds like a different problem then. [00:06] ki7mt: for example cc -lfoo bar.o -o something.so # on debian, won't put foo in DT_NEEDED === george2 is now known as george2_ [00:07] but cc bar.o -osomething.so -lfoo # will === george2_ is now known as george2 [00:07] passing in --no-as-needed turns off the weird ubuntu linker behavior [00:07] eam probably need ${LDFLAGS} in that line as it's a direct call v.s. an ${OBJ1} call or something. [00:07] but the docs say not to do it so I'm trying to understand why :) [00:08] eam of couse,, the lib.so need to be built before hand. [00:08] ki7mt: the thing is, this is output from perl's MakeMaker [00:08] I don't control the argument ordering [00:09] (and it works on literally every other unix in the world :) [00:09] eam, I can't speak to the Docs, and why they say what they do, only what I do on the different buod servers to get around the issue. [00:09] ok [00:09] .. build servers .. [00:09] yeah I have a workaround of -Wl,--no-as-needed [00:09] it's just ... ubuntu docs say explicitly "don't do it" [00:09] but if not that, what? [00:10] I'm trying to understand if there's something more to this policy, or if it's just kinda broken [00:10] eam: I think the fedora doc does a slightly better job explaining than the debian one http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UnderstandingDSOLinkChange [00:10] Yes, as ity's not neeed, but on Debian it is, but breaks apps like F2PY [00:11] trism, Be careful with Fedora, they have lots of issues still with LFS convensions, particularly with /lib /lib64 v.s. native and so on. [00:12] ki7mt: yes but in this instance it is the same sort of change as made in debian a while ago [00:13] trism: great doc, thanks. I think I understand the intent. In this case, what I need to do is ensure the right DT_NEEDED fields are populated in my shared object [00:13] normally -lfoo means your shared object will need libfoo [00:13] trism, Was just a data point, using ldconfig is the only way to get that right cross platform. [00:14] but in ubuntu, -lfoo no longer causes DT_NEEDED to need foo [00:14] eam, exatctly, the .so version not static [00:14] ki7mt: well, the problem is the .so must do the loading for interpreted languages that dlopen stubs [00:14] like python, perl, ruby [00:15] for example you have mysql.so which backs the rubygem, and that mysql.so does the DT_NEEDED to libmysqlclient.so [00:15] because "ruby" itself can't link everything, of course [00:15] know what I mean? [00:15] eam, Yes, but I dont have a solution infortunately :-) [00:15] unfortunately [00:16] fair enough, thanks for pitching in. I think a decent enough answer might be to revert to the normal linker behavior for all interpreted language modules [00:16] as best I can see that's what existing ubuntu packages do [00:17] eam, Yes I'd agree. As a general rule, I've been build to make Debian servers happy, then Ubuntu omits what they don't need, seems to work ok. [00:19] eam, You could do some fancy foot work in the debian/rules file but not much need it it's not failing on UBuntu servers. [00:19] I don't even usually do ubuntu platform, but I want to build this project on travis-ci ... you guys got a huge win by getting them to build on ubuntu :) [00:19] fancy footwork [00:20] is there a help file for the unbuntu packages of software how to compile them into zipes [00:22] hello! any help for wlan on Xubuntu 14.04? [00:28] I knew I would have a problem with UBUNTU eventually [00:28] hi, i installed LXC and it's networking works without extra work via lxcbr0, but i can't find where it is defined, /etc/network/interfaces has no entry for lxcbr0. [00:28] How the bloody heck do I get Oracle Java to work (since DSLREPORTS favor them) [00:29] Whats your problem? Sunstream [00:29] I cannot get it to install and I do not want to mess with rpms/tars [00:30] Nevermind I will just go do a google search and figure it out myself thank you anyways [00:30] * Sunstream walks away [00:31] Sunstream, What does your project require, that's a better place to start, then go to the repos and find out if it's available. [00:31] Sunstream, there is a oracle-java-installer in the webupd8 ppa. But you can use the deb, you don't have to enable the whole ppa. [00:32] → http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/02/install-oracle-java-6-7-or-8-ubuntu-14-04/ Sunstream [00:32] Sunstream, Building from source or especially rpms should be considered a last resort. [00:33] yep that is why I DON [00:33] T want ot mess with that [00:33] Sunstream, just grep the .deb of the installer for the Java version you need: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/java [00:34] Ubuntu server question: I am new to ubuntu server. I setup a dokuwiki on gentoo easily manually. Ubuntu seemed to do it automatically, but now there is no documentation on how to fix the errors. [00:34] Sunstream, Well like ia said, you ned to determine 1), What project / Applications needs, 2). Is it available in the repos, then proceed from there. [00:34] the problem UNLESS I have oracle installed DSLReports sucks [00:34] Where can I find documentation on the the "automatic" install? [00:35] Or where can I find logs for the dokuwiki failures. [00:35] ? [00:35] perlon, As in UBuntu auto install ? [00:35] I can't find lxcbr0 in if-pre-up.d/ either. :( [00:35] apt-get install dokuwiki, and then dpkg-reconfigure [00:36] thanks anyways daswort I found this out before your reply. From this point on unless I have a real problem I will do searching on the wiki and google for my fixes ...

[01:27] everytime i start synaptic it locks up totally unresponsive and frozen for either several seconds or completely and i have to kill it Is this a known bug in Trusty? [01:29] syntroPi: yes, synaptic does take several seconds to start up; I have one VM configuration where it takes much longer but I can't explain it [01:31] it takes way longer than several seconds everytime i change the smallest setting i get the "nonresponsive" window...

Today I switched out my router with a different one with the same wireless settings (security, access point name, etc). My Ubuntu laptop connects to it and works ok for awhile (10-20 minutes?) and then the wireless stops responding. I have to disable/enable wifi, or unplug/replug the usb wifi card to get it to reconnect and continue working until it happens again. Any suggestions on where to start [01:52] looking? Log files? [01:53] Locke2002, look at "dmesg" in the terminal maybe? [01:56] Locke2002, I would check the routers signal, must have a adjustment on board. [01:57] Beldar: All the other household wifi devices are working perfectly, if that helps. [01:58] Locke2002, Just saying where I would start. [01:59] find out why you time out. (look in the router error logs, as well on the machine that times out.) [01:59] wirless is a tricky biz, it can be all kinda of crazy stuff that makes you lose connection [02:04] k, I'll see what I can find. Thanks people. [02:22] alright, I'm at the point where I will give 1/4 of my money to whoever helps me solve my problem [02:23] x9: yes ping [02:23] :) [02:25] basically, I can connect to my Wi-Fi access point, but I don't get internet access. Router says I'm connected and active, but I'm not getting any access. Firefox fails to connect, Xchat doesn't connect. Router is set properly, Wi-Fi adapter settings set properly (probably), but still a fail. could it be drivers? [02:25] ...could rebooting the gateway solve this problem? [02:26] ehh.. yea;) [02:26] are you able to connect using cable? [02:26] x9: have you tried connecting with another PC/phone? [02:27] bdbear: yes, ethernet works. Foxhoundz: I'm using the same computer on Windows to talk right now, everything works except XUbuntu [02:27] ok [02:27] good [02:27] this is a clean install of xubuntu [02:27] My guess is a misconfiguration with your DNS settings [02:28] how would I go about configuring it properly? [02:28] how far can you ping, when your connected (wifi) [02:29] bdbear: as in distance from the access point? [02:29] can you ping google (8.8.8.8) the gateway? your self? [02:29] hi guys, there's a problem that's bugging me for a while now... my fan keeps activating in waves, each 10s more or less.. during its activation my ubuntu (14.04) lags, this is more frequent when I'm watching a movie... it seems that after the installation of the bumblebee (nvidia) the lags are less powerful... I was wondering if anyone would have ANY idea for me to start searching about this problem...

I was just wondering if it might be the cause [02:31] try pinging the IP of the router itself [02:31] should be something like 192.168.0.1 [02:32] bdbear: taking notes of as many things as I can before rebooting and attempting a fix [02:32] hi all , I am using a TL-WN821N_V4 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and i can see other networks apart from my own but i can see it on windows fine , anyone got any idea how i can solve this please ?

[03:45] catalase: you really should be doing things in your home directory [03:45] ok will try tthis [03:45] Perf samples todo long [03:45] Ben64, how come [03:45] catalase: because thats your home directory... [03:46] catalase: you own it, it's your directory to do whatever in.

[03:49] is this chat good for Linux mint 17 [03:49] so now I gotta look for a way to fix that [03:49] Guest93334: no [03:49] !mint | Guest93334 [03:49] Guest93334: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [03:49] Sunstream: what desktop environment are you in? [03:49] lubuntu [03:50] the question is, why can't i access the .ssh folder in my home directory? [03:50] it is set as drwx [03:50] i have low sys specs (old Dell Ispiron 1100) [03:50] oh, it says owner is root root [03:50] Sunstream: update-alternatives --config x-www-browser [03:50] no its xchat [03:50] catalase: that's why [03:50] I gotta find the right handler [03:51] Sunstream: did you try the update-alternatives command? [03:51] histo, do i just chown user /directory/? [03:51] catalase: chown username:groupname /some/directory [03:51] catalase: should match the perms of your /home/username username and groupname [03:51] catalase: so the .ssh folder in your home directory was owned by root? [03:52] ya, fixed that [03:52] thx u [03:52] catalase: why are you trying to put files in .ssh directory anyways? [03:52] catalase: you should be much more careful with permissions and sudo in general [03:52] catalase: especially on a server, bad permissions could end up with your box compromised [03:52] histo, not trying to put them. i generated my rsa keys and they went into root/.ssh [03:53] then randomly some folder was created in my home directory called .ssh [03:53] hello i cannot update my xubuntu completely ,how to fix it [03:53] but is empty [03:53] catalase: did you use sudo to generate your keys? [03:53] how come I can't send files from cell phone to laptop via bluetooth? on my cell phone it said that device not supported.... yet I can send stuff from my laptop to my cell phone via BT just fine. [03:53] Sunstream: try in #lubuntu [03:53] histo, probably [03:53] am I missing something? [03:53] catalase: well dont' do that. [03:54] getting closer to fixing it [03:54] oh and when I try to 'Browse' the cell phone after connecting it via BT, I can't... Nothing happens when I click 'Browse' on the BT menu under System Settings [03:55] When the number of windows of a program changes.. the number of dots in the launcher don't change inmediatly.. I have to click on the icon in order to see it change.. happens when opening new windows and closign :/ [03:56] Linot: Why are you pinging me? [03:56] ~ [03:56] Linot: ~? [03:57] home? [03:58] i should probably make the root password different from my user password then [03:58] catalase: you shouldn't have a root password set === Jan11 is now known as ON1 [03:58] !root | catalase [03:58] catalase: 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 [03:59] histo: sorry [04:00] i first used this software [04:01] histo, thanks for this link [04:01] histo, should one set a password for their RSA keys? [04:05] catalase: it's up to you. Think of it this way. If someone gets your private key they won't ahve to crack password [04:07] catalase: I don't use pass on mine, if I lose my private key I can just pull the plug... [04:07] catalase: also check out ssh-copy-id for transfering your keys. [04:13] i have now copied your link about root accounts and stapled it into my ubuntu complete refference book [04:19] I wish I can get it to work but XChat refuses to let me open urls in firefox [04:20] Sunstream: did you update-alternatives yet? [04:20] I did [04:21] wait === nexus_ is now known as Linot [04:21] Sunstream: what does xdg-open http://www.ubuntu.com use to open that link? [04:21] what do you mean update-altern [04:22] histro [04:22] its xchat [04:22] not firefox or anything [04:22] Sunstream: open a terminal and type 'xdg-open http://www.ubuntu.com' without quotes... What browser gets opened? [04:23] oh epiphany-browser I am going to uninstall that POS [04:23] is there a root user group in ubuntu? [04:23] Sunstream: Stop uninstalling and just set the right one up. [04:23] Sunstream: when you click on a link in xchat which browser gets opened? [04:23] I told you [04:23] evanvarvell: yes [04:23] epiphany [04:24] the default to system browser? [04:24] Sunstream: K try 'update-alternatives --config x-www-browser' without quotes [04:24] gosh [04:24] Sunstream: gosh what? [04:24] this is stupid I have it set to firefox but it loves epiphany [04:24] Sunstream: because of lxde [04:25] lxde? [04:25] its forcing me to use that POS thing [04:25] Sunstream: was update-atlernatives set to firefox or not? [04:25] ... I am not superman I need time to type that [04:25] Sunstream: copy and paste [04:26] it outputs selections 0 1 2 3 [04:26] Sunstream: yeah which one has a * [04:27] it is on 0 [04:27] and says permission denied when I try to select firefox [04:27] Sunstream: which browser is on the 0 line? [04:27] again [04:27] epiphany [04:28] I told you earlier the same thing that epiphany is being a forced default [04:28] Sunstream: use sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser [04:28] and change it to firefox [04:28] so if i am a part of root user group then all messages and mail sent to root group i will receive? [04:29] hi [04:29] okay it is say manual mode does this mean epiphany can take over again [04:30] In ccsm, I've been able to change some of the switcher settings for when I press alt-tab, but is there some way to make Unity show a window's live preview as I'm switching through them all? this way I can get a faster sense of the app I want to use (like on Windows 7) [04:30] Sunstream: no [04:30] Sunstream: it should work now [04:30] Now [04:30] lets see [04:31] Okay [04:31] That makes it a bit simpler it is now opening it but [04:31] I want to double click a link now it should work but it is so [04:31] slow [04:32] What is slow? [04:32] I should be able to left click it twice and open the url like I can in mIRC however I can right click and click open in browser and it opens fast [04:33] I do not want epiphany on my system [04:33] I just Chrome and gmail [04:33] Sunstream: So what is slow then if it's working? The right clicking part. I'm confused [04:34] It is faster if I right click the link and click on open link in browser it opens faster [04:34] Xchat is wierd [04:35] Sunstream: opens faster compared to what? [04:35] ... [04:35] Am I the only one that is not following this? [04:35] double clicking [04:35] y ou a r e be i n g h ac k ed if i t i s sl o w [04:35] Sunstream: No idea. I don't forsee there being a difference in the code [04:35] How do you open a link in your irc window? double click right? [04:36] Sunstream: no. Don't have that feature in my client [04:36] evanvarvell: your text was f'd up; i think your spacebar is broken [04:36] well in most gui clients it is double left click like you open a desktop shortcut [04:37] Epiphany removed because it sucks as a brower [04:37] chrome [04:37] Chrome sucks because it does not allow Java [04:37] wrong [04:38] okay tell me how to get it to work [04:38] http://tinyurl.com/q4hyjtz [04:38] Step 1. Install Windows [04:38] should work then [04:39] also, don't use java [04:39] no [04:39] yes [04:39] I am NOT going to install Windows [04:39] Gorroth: please stop [04:39] I just left windows [04:39] don't use java then [04:39] Sunstream: so when you double left click a link in xchat it opens slower than if you right click and select open link? [04:39] * Sunstream boggles at Gorroth wondering if he is trolling. [04:39] a bit [04:40] yep [04:40] but really, dnt' use java [04:40] then what should I use? [04:40] C++ [04:40] Mocha? [04:40] -_- [04:40] Now silly, I cannot control what websites use [04:40] its not a big deal [04:40] Chromium has its use so does firefox [04:40] You can send them the "Do Not Use Java" packet. [04:41] I hope it works [04:41] I could? I suppose I could send "shut off java so I can use your bloody site?" packet too? [04:41] wait nevermind I am done feeding trolls for the day [04:41] yeah [04:41] send all the anti-java packets we have [04:41] why would you not want to use java ? Java is the most awesomest best ! [04:42] Sorry, Gorroth you exceeded the troll feeding for the day thank you. [04:42] I only trust Steve Gibson's websites; they use HTML only [04:42] SirLagz, no Java actually sucks. [04:42] lol [04:42] it is about as secure as Flash [04:42] Sunstream: did you not notice the tag ?

[04:43] same here SirLagz [04:43] Thankfully, Java is not something I have to use. [04:44] wait [04:44] nevermind [04:44] I do Android dev work [04:44] but [04:44] I do it in C++ [04:44] Gorroth: lol [04:44] in chrome go to settings the scroll to bottom then click advanced settings then under privacy click content settings then it is allow java script [04:44] hey, man, how can i use QQ in ubuntu? [04:44] some of it is in java, but the game engine is C++, thankfully [04:44] Gorroth: how do you do it in C++ ? [04:44] The android NDK [04:44] Gorroth, Actually I like android [04:44] Gorroth: ooh right. [04:44] Gorroth: forgot about that :D [04:44] :-) [04:44] is there anyone here that could possible help a linux noob get linux installed on my desk top [04:45] It's like a stripped down linux system... very stripped down [04:45] the NDK portion, I mean [04:45] I've always wanted to play with the NDK, but never had a reason to [04:45] The only apps I've made for Android, I've just used Java for [04:45] yeah [04:45] Trever, What is it you don't understand? [04:45] Trever: have you downloaded the iso? [04:46] we ported our game engine to android. it has been running on pc, mac, and ios, and now androidt oo [04:46] took me and another guy 3 months to do it [04:46] nice nice [04:46] Gorroth: what game / game engine ? [04:46] ROBLOX [04:46] actually, I did predict that Linux smart phones would take off. [04:46] Android is close to it [04:46] Gorroth: ah k. haven't heard of that yet [04:46] Gorroth, This is support can you take that to #ubuntu-offtopic [04:46] I cannot waitr till ubuntu smartphpnes [04:47] smartphones* [04:47] SirLagz: just an mmo sandbox game :-) check it out sometime (doesn't run on linux though): http://www.roblox.com [04:47] alright, i'm going to go chillax for a while [04:48] what in the world is this 'chillax' is it some cool nerd way of saying chilling [04:48] chill / relax [04:48] i have already built a usb for it and installed it on my laptop but when i try on my desktop i keep getting unable to find a medium containing live file [04:48] Trever: do you have your desktop set to boot from usb? [04:49] ahh [04:49] yes [04:49] CHILl reLAX I get it [04:49] Sunstream: bingo [04:50] like how Square and Enix merge named them (saracastically) Squeenix (due to they used to be rival rpg game makers) [04:50] lol [04:51] I didn't realise Square Enix used to be two different companies [04:51] learn something new everyday [04:52] You..... did not know... are you a teenager /young adult?

I fixed it [04:56] ok im back so back to getting this desktop to take ubuntu [04:57] Trever_: insert cd/dvd/usb, follow installer? [04:58] tried that keep getting unable to find meldium containing live file system [04:59] *medium === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [04:59] how can i fix it so acl settings are applied recursively [04:59] Trever_: Is this the same usb you used to install the laptop? [04:59] yes [04:59] Trever_: how old is the desktop? [05:01] Trever_: make sure the thumb drive you created still boots on the laptop, just to be sure something didn't happen to it. [05:01] desktop is brand new i have had it since Jan. [05:02] and i am currently rebuilding it to try a 32 bit version [05:02] the usb [05:02] Trever_: how much ram does the desktop have? [05:03] 8gb [05:03] ddr3 1600 [05:04] i know i shouldnt need the 32 bit version but im just trying it [05:04] Trever_: a quick boot test in the laptop would be sufficient. [05:06] alright il be back [05:12] yep that worked on the laptop === vivek is now known as Vivek_VC [05:12] I am getting the following warning message http://paste.ubuntu.com/7724785/ [05:12] how do I change the priority of my default browser higher using that update-alternative? [05:13] What's the fix to the issue ? === abdul is now known as Guest59147 [05:15] Trever_: interesting... Try booting something else from usb on the desktop I suppose. Or a different port [05:15] Sunstream: There is no priority. Its either the default or it's not [05:16] Vivek_VC: where are you getting it, and what are you trying to do when you receive it. [05:16] Sunstream, update-alternatives --config x-www-browser [05:16] histo: I am getting this when I try an apt-get update [05:17] Vivek_VC: any ppa's enabled? [05:17] i hate my network adaptor on this laptop i dc [05:17] Trever__: what chipset? [05:18] like my mobo? [05:18] Vivek_VC: pastebin the full output of "sudo apt-get update" [05:18] it is ok I was wondering why one browser had a 85 priority and another had 40 [05:19] hi guys im not sure what exactly to do i formatted my ubuntu setup [05:19] histo, How do I check if ppa's are enabled or not ? [05:19] and i dont know how to bring my fakeraid setup [05:19] Vivek_VC: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PackageManagerTroubleshootingProcedure [05:19] bring back* [05:19] Vivek_VC: do you know what a ppa is? have you ever used one? [05:20] hi guys, does anyone know how to fix the ugly ubuntu bootsplash after installing the prop. nvidia drivers? [05:20] alexjr__: what's wrong with it? [05:20] Ben64, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7724816/ [05:21] well hallelujah i figure it out [05:21] Vivek_VC: that's not "apt-get update"... [05:21] histo, Yes, I think ppas are enabled. The puppet enterprise reposiotries are enabled. [05:21] sudo mdadm --assemble --scan [05:21] I've noticed some difficulties typing parentheses over VNC, but it's inconsistent: sometimes the parens type just fine, other times it takes several presses to make a paren [05:21] Ben64, it's upgrade [05:21] and sometimes I press once but I get a repeating string of parens [05:21] update and upgrade [05:21] Vivek_VC: ok... but i asked for update? [05:21] what can I do to diagnose this problem? [05:22] I don't have that text, it has scrolled up. [05:22] Ben64, I don't have that text as it has scrolled up. [05:22] the desktop is using the 990fxa-ud3 rev3 [05:22] Vivek_VC: then use pastebinit or output to a file or use sprunge or something else [05:23] Vivek: nano /var/log/apt/term.log [05:23] bdbear, Thanks [05:23] what happens if you do apt-get install puppetmaster-common ? [05:24] @histo it looks all messed up. it's low-res and the usual ubuntu dots etc. don't show up, but some text with OK checkmarks at the end. [05:24] you might fix this by installing the missing packages. unless you get more errors. if thats the case then you might have some corrupted files. [05:25] xev doesn't really tell me much beyond what I already know - sometimes it fails to report a keypress event for the paren key, sometimes it reports repeating events for a single press [05:26] alexjr__: you could disable the splash. No idea why it'smessed up though. [05:27] Ben64, bdbear, histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7724830/ [05:27] vivek_vc did you try to apt-get install puppetmaster-common ? [05:27] histo, ppa is a personal archive. Yes, I've used it. [05:28] hey #ubuntu, my system appears to be idling at 3.5 GB of ram used... is this normal? should i be concerned? [05:28] scrath taht 3.9 GiB [05:28] out of 8 [05:28] hunt: yes normal, no concern [05:28] additionally 2 GiB of my swap is being used [05:28] bdbear, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7724832/ [05:28] why is so much memory being used without any processes running? [05:28] or with minimal running [05:28] It says package is already installed. [05:29] hunt: pastebin "free -m" [05:29] !atemyram | hunt [05:29] hunt: If you are wondering why some tools report your system has very little free memory, have a look at http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ | A short primer on Linux memory management can be found here: http://sourcefrog.net/weblog/software/linux-kernel/free-mem.html [05:29] I think while trying to uninstall Puppet enterprise manually some time back, I had deleted the files.

[05:30] histo you have no idea? [05:30] histo: the second link is broken [05:30] Ben64: ... :'| [05:31] Ben64: how do i diagnose why so much is being used [05:31] Trever__: I told you I would try a different bootable usb or different port [05:31] hunt: the first link will explain your issue/ lack there of [05:31] histo: Ben64 says my free -m looks strange though [05:31] Ben64, bdbear, histo: Now puppet master common is installed. [05:31] hunt: take a look at mine for comparison http://sprunge.us/gCeB [05:31] histo: yea i read it im just saying i think someone ought to fix the second link [05:31] bdbear, now puppet master-common has got installed. [05:32] vivek_VC do that for the 3 other packages and then try to do an apt-get upgrade [05:32] Trever__: try/test [05:32] Should I do the same for the other packages ? [05:32] ok [05:32] tried both also tried xubuntu and linux mint all have the same issue [05:32] Ben64: why does mine look strange? youre using even more memory then me [05:32] hunt: its weird that 1) you have so little cached and 2) your swap is so used [05:32] Ben64: i see... why would there be very little cached? [05:32] and yea i dont understand my swap usage [05:32] Ben64: could it just be relative to the total swap size? [05:33] hunt: cache is what the links that histo gave you are about. linux uses unused memory for cache to speed things up, its a good thing, and usually where memory goes to [05:33] !who > alexjr__ [05:33] alexjr__, please see my private message [05:33] hunt: oh maybe, didn't notice that you had a 8GB swap [05:33] Ben64: yea i read the links but why would i under-cache [05:33] hunt: have you used anything designed to free up memory [05:33] Ben64: nope, should i? [05:33] hunt: no [05:34] Ben64: are you thinking those programs move it to the swap? [05:34] hunt: they do often times, yes [05:34] Ben64: ah what a clever trick [05:35] Ben64: the only reason i ask is because i was getting wierd lags opening new tabs and such in firefox, it was using 1.3 GB of memory at the time [05:35] weird [05:35] also is there a reason people still use firefox besides fear of google? [05:35] hunt: was there pages with flash content? [05:35] hunt: pastebin "ps aux | sort -b -k 4 | tail" [05:35] i find the chrome environment mostly much more comfortable, and for some reason javascript always runs faster in chorme [05:35] bdbear, I have done that. [05:35] histo: the second one just 404sa [05:36] vivek_VC did you manage to upgrade your system now? [05:36] Yes. [05:36] I did not get those warning messages. [05:36] cool, then it were some corrupted files. its most likely fixed. [05:36] bdbear, Yes, I did not get those warning messages. [05:36] histo if responded to me i might have missed it i dc again sorry [05:36] bdbear, Thanks. [05:37] vivek_VC yw [05:37] Trever__: I was saying to try a different port or different bootable thumb drive. [05:37] Ben64: idk if i want to share that data publicly, but if you want to know it loks like the only significant user of memory is X, which is taking ~30% cpu and memory [05:37] anyone who know how you can force FilePermissionsACLs to automatically update subfolders? [05:37] hunt: the command i gave you has the big memory users on the bottom [05:38] Ben64: right, weirdly firefox is listed below X despite only running at 1.6% MEM, while X is a hefty 30% [05:38] sorry, 3.3% [05:38] Ben64: i think the sort algorithm is actually not comparing the floats [05:39] Ben64: and just doing the dictionary style sortiung [05:40] bdbear: They should be by default. What is happening? [05:41] it seems that X11 forwarding is much faster for text programs like GUI emacs than vnc is [05:41] but much slower for graphical programs like a browser [05:42] bdbear: what are you trying to accomplish [05:42] histo: Apache, userdir. file permissions. [05:42] bdbear: for which user or group? [05:44] bdbear: do you have acl turned on ? [05:44] yes [05:44] bdbear: mount | grep acl [05:45] no its not turned on [05:45] bdbear: well kind of hard to use if it's not enabled [05:45] bdbear: edit your fstab and add acl as a mount option [05:46] histo: I did that, but i think i did something wrong there. [05:46] bdbear: what do you mean? [05:47] histo: mount: /home not mounted or bad option [05:47] histo: when doing sudo mount -o remount /home [05:47] bdbear: pastebin your fstab [05:49] histo: http://pastebin.com/4JwsUgS3 [05:49] so many /homes [05:49] one are removed.

I, again, apologize for earlier [08:56] Braden`: no problem [08:56] btw, don't try running 14.04 in a vm with 512MB of ram and 12MB video card [08:57] lol [08:57] Ben64: full blown desktop? [08:57] ouch [08:57] yeah... [08:57] Ben64: yeah unity is a little fat [08:57] had to up to 2048MB and 128MB to get unity running smoothly [09:00] hi all [09:01] i am re-installing Ubuntu 14 without formating the partition. Will the /home/myusername directory remain with its content? [09:01] vak, Why would you not install this way? [09:02] i do understand, that some ".*" files will be rewritten, but what about Documents, Desktop, etc? [09:02] Beldar: what way?.. [09:02] vak: do you have a separate /home partition? [09:02] vak, I meant why would you install that way [09:02] why i am not having rename package in my Repo [09:02] Ben64: no, /home resides in / partition [09:02] and also i am getting Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [09:03] vak: then that doesn't sound like a great idea [09:03] after update [09:03] rahul_: pastebin what you're talking about [09:04] rahul_, rename package? [09:04] yes [09:04] Beldar: my installation became unbootable because of RAID/mdadm. I tried to fix it, giving up now. But data in /home/myusername is needed [09:04] i tried to install apt-get install rename [09:04] rahul_, The ? means what is that? [09:05] rahul_: rename is not a package [09:05] vak, You can separate home [09:05] !separatehome | vak [09:05] vak: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving [09:05] http://code.linuxnix.com/2013/01/shell-script-remove-spaces-in-file-names-in-linuxunix.html here it is showing to how to install rename . ] [09:06] I pressed Ctrl+Alt+S (shade windows I think) for some of my open Chrome windows, and they disappeared into the background leaving only their edges slightly prominent. [09:06] rahul_: well thats not in ubuntu [09:06] vak, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving As suggested the reinstall way is not a good idea. [09:06] How can I get them back into their normal state? [09:06] They don't show up in the app switcher. [09:06] Beldar: but why not good?.. [09:07] vak, Ubuntu is not designed to be used this way. [09:07] Seriously, I'm freaking out not being able to interact with the windows at all [09:08] Beldar: i am 15 years with Linuxes... just am trying to understand why it is not good. [09:08] A Chrome tab management extension still see the windows. [09:08] vak: you are going to reinstall to / without formatting after 15 years with linux? good luck with that. [09:08] Because your /home is inside /? [09:09] vak, Honestly 15 years should tell you why,.... [09:09] And you have a single partition, meaning if you wipe / then /home will go away with it? [09:09] vak: what do you think is going to happen to all the files that are in / now? [09:09] I find it difficult to believe that you have 15 years of experience with linux. 15 minutes is more believable. [09:10] histo: no need to press on my self-esteem. Are you talking about binaries that will be lost orfans not referred in package repos? [09:10] Guys, I shaded some of my Chrome windows accidentally with the keyboard shortcut on Ubuntu 14.04. Unlike on prevous versions where the title-bar remained, I can't interact with the window at all; only see its outline. [09:11] We're talking about the fact that your /home is inside your / partition. [09:11] And that wiping / will wipe out /home as well. [09:11] Since your (puported) goal is to recover /home, then what you're doing is counterintuitive. [09:12] vak: just move /home to a separate partition and leave it there. Youc an format / and use your new /home partition without formatting. [09:12] Sachiru histo Beldar: Sorry for mentioning you, but do you have any idea how I could unshade those windows? [09:13] Sachiru: it is fully on behalve of the *installer* what will be done with my home/ . That's why i am here asking. It may just put needed files in my home dir, it may fully re-create home dir -- it's more about decisions done around the *installer* [09:13] Ack, it seems to be an open bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1313446 [09:13] Ubuntu bug 985430 in compiz (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1313446 Can't unshade windows" [Medium,Triaged] === Sachiru is now known as Guest23675 [09:14] vak: What? === Sachiru_ is now known as Sachiru [09:15] Some idiot marked the bug a a dupe of a different issue. [09:15] * YatharthROCK sighs [09:15] vak: what is your question? [09:17] sass in not working [09:17] histo: i've figured out that re-install without formating is not a good idea, but am trying to figure out why exactly... [09:17] @histo: He lost /home, which resides on / [09:17] Sachiru: he didn't lose /home [09:17] And wants to reinstall ubuntu because somehow that will make him get /home back [09:18] histo: i see only one reason -- plenty of potentially lost files (orfans) not refered in repo anymore [09:18] vak: I'd venture to believe the installer won't even let you do that. [09:18] Sachiru: i didn't lost home. at least yet))) [09:19] histo: i did this before and the content was preserved. But now we are with Ubuntu 14, so, the installer migth have changed its nice behaviour... [09:20] sass in not working.......when i installing all the ruby gems after that i used compass watch but i am facing so much problem [09:21] Sachiru: what i have lost -- is "bootability" of my Ubuntu 14. mdadm loops in initrd/initramfs premount phase reporting exit code 0, where no changes to the system state is done. I can't fix it on my own in a day [09:23] hello I have added deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ondrej/php5/ubuntu lucid main to my sources list, did update, upgrade, but apt still says there are no newer versions avilable... [09:24] vak: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuReinstallation [09:25] histo: so, it should work?... [09:25] vak: apparently but they also recommend backing up your data. [09:26] histo: that's understood... [09:26] vak: I would imagine that would create all sorts of config hell in /etc, and wonder how they are handling the overwriting of files. [09:27] ddv: did you do "apt-get dist-upgrade" ? [09:27] hateball: yes [09:27] hi, i installed 14.04 on my HDD and put it into my laptop but it doenst start [09:27] ddv: PPA belong into the sources.list.d folder. add them with add-apt-repository [09:27] k1l: yeah I did that also [09:28] histo: iirr, no questions, they'll be just overwritten and i'm ok with this [09:28] vak: iirr?

[10:58] hyper320: if you can mount the drive in another machine you can edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg to use the correct UUID [10:58] hyper320: you can also edit the GRUB boot parameter at runtime, to see if it wants to boot [10:59] hyper320: ... also, the wrong UUID might be in /etc/fstab as well, so you should check there [10:59] what will be the right UUID?

But yea, if you deleted sources entries, you need to fix that and try to let apt fix itself again. [13:10] cristobal: So get your sources back as they should be and do; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f install [13:12] cristobal: By removing those ppa's, you will pull the plug on the apps you installed from them and you'll no longer be able to maintain those packages. (I know I'm stating the obvious, but... FYI). [13:13] cristobal: So, it can be said that you can get into trouble with ppa's but you can also cause trouble by removing them as well, (in some ways). [13:14] Abhijit: That page is blank [13:15] usr13, too much i will do a fresh install XD i did an distro upgrade and i remake source.list was well nothing is working thanks anyway :) [13:15] better start fresh :P [13:17] :-D [13:18] Could someone please tell me why when I add 'auto wlan0' and 'iface wlan0 inet dhcp' to the interfaces file the network config on boot takes nearly two minutes and my wifi does not enable ort connect to the network? [13:21] Blinky_: no [13:21] Blinky_: Are you using network-manager? [13:21] usr13: Yeah [13:22] Blinky_: Why then do you edit /etc/network/interfaces ? [13:22] Blinky_: (I assume that is what you were saying, right?) [13:23] usr13: Network manager will not connect to my wireless network on boot. It wont even enable my wireless on boot. I have to click on the network icon on the system tray and enable wireless everytime it boots [13:24] Blinky_: Then fix network-manager === luckybunny is now known as lbaway [13:24] Blinky_: Or ditch it and use wicd [13:24] usr13: It is a fresh install today [13:24] Blinky_: Is it fully updated? [13:24] usr13: I tried wicd yesterday and could not get it to work, when I then removed network manager I lost connection completely [13:25] yeha [13:25] yeah* [13:26] Blinky_: They both work for everyone else. Not sure why wicd did not work for you, but you would, in fact, need to remove network manager first. With wicd, there is a separate option to click on to tell it to automatically connect to a network.

[13:30] Blinky_: Ok, turn off the encryption untill you fix the problem with network-manager and/or wicd.

[13:34] :-Dmy bluetooth not working in ubuntu 14-04.need help [13:34] usr13: In the additional drivers section there are some proprietary drivers from broadcom [13:35] Blinky_: Did you install the non-free firmware package yet?

When it works, it's lovely, when it doesn't, you want to put your machine in a chipper shredder. [13:35] Be aware that non-free firmware could compromise your system [13:36] hoe to make my file exceutable? [13:36] IceBot3000: I know, I know. Although that's pretty unlikely. [13:36] tushar: chmod. It changes modes. +x is adding the execute permission [13:36] Blinky_: Hybernate and / or suspend are often problematic when it comes to WiFi connection. [13:36] IceBot3000: be aware, your cpu might compromise your system ;) [13:36] tsimpson: So chmod a+x will tell it EVERYONE can execute the file. [13:37] s/tsimpson/tushar [13:37] usr13: So I have found out, I have had nothing but issues with suspend. I have to use a previous kernel to maintain suspend at the moment as well as not installing the drivers for the wireless [13:37] Thor: True, best to trust no-one [13:37] usr13: so am I doomed to have to manually start my wifi on boot? [13:38] IceBot3000: let's make our own x86 cpus! [13:38] Blinky_: No, I wouldn't say that. [13:38] Open source x86 architecture, would be kinda cool [13:39] Blinky_: When it boots, (and is not yet working), what do you see in the output of iwconfig [13:39] (too bad it's not possible since x86 is owned and licensed by intel...) [13:39] I believe the Russian government is looking to start using their own ARM implementation to replace x86, so the security is indeed an issue [13:39] usr13: two secs and I will reboot and find out [13:39] 8.04, team viewer, .deb file says "The package is of bad quality" then there's these details .. http://pastebin.com/CMLp6qbj [13:39] <_Crash_Laptop> anyone know how i can uninstall ffmpeg even though i ran "dpkg -r ffmpeg" and "sudo apt-get remove --purge ffmpeg" which says it cannot be found?

[13:41] Blinky_: Also: rfkill list [13:41] tushar, use 'cd new/dir/' [13:41] tushar: What is a search engine... [13:41] I need to go to the Software drive [13:41] tushar, look for it in /media [13:41] empty [13:42] nothing in or inside of /etc/issue [13:42] guideX, Did you run the command I gave you?

[13:46] bdbear: what you playing [13:46] usr13: soft-block both hp-wifi and hp-bluetooth (although the wifi card I recently install has no bluetooth) and hard-block phy0: wireless lan [13:46] even though, there's no support, is there perhaps an older version of team viewer which will still work with 8.04? [13:47] guideX: Negative [13:47] Blinkey_. wargame: european escalation. Did you manage to get your wlan to start on boot? [13:47] _Crash_Laptop;~ what does sudo apt-get purge ffmpeg give? [13:47] guideX: I'd suggest you wipe Natty off and do a fresh install of Trusty. Trusty is LTS and supported til April 2019 [13:48] Blinky_: Ok, it says "hard-block" on the phy0: wireless lan? [13:48] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, The following packages will be REMOVED: [13:48] <_Crash_Laptop> ffmpeg* - i accepted [13:48] ActionParsnip: Oh, I'd really like to, but I have a web application I keep failing to setup on other newer ubuntu's, something in one of the required components isn't working in the newer ubuntu's [13:48] Blinky_: "hard-block" indicates the hardware switch is turned off. [13:48] bdbear: No we are still working on that. I did what you suggested and it didn't work, did make the boot very slow when the screen told me it had waited more then 60 seconds for the network configuration to finish [13:48] usr13: yep [13:48] ActionParsnip: So I'm stuck in this older, unsupported version [13:48] guideX, you could use 12.04LTS [13:48] Blinky_: What kind of switch is it? [13:48] Blinky_: F-key? [13:49] guideX, 12.04LTS is still supported and is older [13:49] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, now i got - http://pastebin.com/6YkZNHGx [13:49] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, when purging [13:49] usr13: push button just above the keyboard [13:49] guideX: you can reinstall the newer version. You aren't stuck [13:49] guideX: a little rewrite and you'll be groovy [13:49] Blinky_: So, was it off? (Is there an indicator light? [13:49] oh I'm stuck, I keep trying to move this thing, and it wont work on anything except 8.04 [13:49] guideX, what is it? [13:50] it's a php zend framework 1 webapp [13:50] guideX, install Zend Server then [13:50] it's OS-independent and certified backwards-compatible [13:50] _Crash_Laptop;~ what does apt-cache policy ffmpeg say now [13:50] hmm I'm not really sure, something fails during setup on newer versions [13:50] I've tried to upgrade, or switch numerous times [13:51] guideX, http://www.zend.com/en/products/server/free-edition <-- test it under that [13:51] Blinky_: I'm confused as to whether it's "hard-blocked" or "soft-blocked". If it is hard-blocked, nothing we can do but to manually switc it on. If it is soft-blocked, we can use rfkill unblock to turn it back on. (You could put a line in /etc/rc.local ). [13:51] hmm ok, i'll check it out [13:51] i cant start ubuntu on my laptop [13:51] guideX, if you can get it running under Zend Server then you're safe to use any Ubuntu version =] [13:51] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, http://pastebin.com/6wKxkYbr [13:51] i put my HDD in the laptop but it doesnt start [13:51] guideX, also notice they have all the ancient PHP versions still supported too ;-) [13:52] usr13: Just as it starts the os the wireless button turn blue, which is on, then when you enter the password to go to the desktop it turns itself off, orange. [13:52] usr13: I tried to turn it on using the button but it does not work [13:52] _Crash_Laptop;~ i guess you could manually remove those 2 directories in the warning [13:53] hmm I don't know, i've already tried 12.10, 14, fedora 20 and debian, and in each case, my php webapp has a white screen, and no error is reported [13:53] _Crash_Laptop;~ me i'd just leave em [13:53] usr13: even now sitting here after a boot it is orange, If I press it nothing happens. [13:53] only when I use 8.04, can I get it working at all [13:53] how can i adjust my settings to get it running on my laptop? [13:53] Blinky_: If it is a softblock problem you can use rfkill phy0|type (where type is really what it is). [13:53] I'm not really sure why [13:53] usr13: it is like ubunut has stopped the button from working?! [13:53] guideX: why dont you issolate that application inside an vm? and then run everything else outside it. [13:53] Blinky_: See if it is blocked with rfkill [13:53] hmm that's a good idea, I should try that [13:53] You need to turn on error reporting in the PHP config or the top-level index.php of the website if you just get a white screen. Errors are most likely being surpressed by default [13:54] _Crash_Laptop;~ i have nothing in /user/local/share/man at all [13:54] usr13: phy0 is still hard blocked [13:54] Blinky_: Orange and Blue light may also tell us whether it's connected or disconnected. (Not sure...) [13:54] well I get through gthe real errors, like pdo drivers, memcache, other things, then there's just no error, and white screen [13:54] aljo ? [13:54] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, hmmmm, what do you think i should do?

You have hard-block and soft-block and it's a bit hard to figure out what to do, you just have to tinker ... [13:55] X2 i can enter Gnome2 [13:55] Blinky_: Ok that is good info. [13:56] usr13: So how would I stop something being hard clocked on boot? [13:56] blocked even [13:56] Blinky_: That would be a BIOS issue. [13:56] usr13: Bios? [13:56] Blinky_: But, usually, if it's turned off when you shut down, it will be off when you boot up again. [13:56] _Crash_Laptop;~ do a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade to see if all is well [13:57] usr13:If it was a BIOS issue would that not present itself in Windows? [13:57] Blinky_: I don't know. Does it? [13:57] usr13: No [13:57] Blinky_: So this is a dual-boot system? [13:58] usr13: Only ever had this problem when I install Linux [13:58] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, thanks, the locate ffmpeg showed a lot of directories with relevance to ffmpeg, but i'm running the upgrade now [13:58] hyper320: any reason you're not installing it on the system it's supposed to be in? [13:58] usr13: Yeah, Win 7 and Ubuntu [13:58] Blinky_: Ok so it's dual-boot. Ok. sometimes that is an issue. ... [13:58] my DVD drive is broken and my BIOS doesnt support USB legecy [13:58] Blinky_ : I've just joined, but from what I've read so far, you had installed a linux on a laptop that had an UEFI boot partition (and probably Windows) and now your wifi cannot start, and rfkill help, right?

[13:58] no [13:59] St_Marx: Nearly, it does not have a UEFI Bios [13:59] Blinky_: Try turning it off and on with rfkill [13:59] hyper320: is it a desktop PC? [13:59] _Crash_Laptop;~ in 14.04 ffmpeg package does not exist. replaced with fork called avconf [13:59] a install over LAN would be to much afford [13:59] no its a laptop [14:00] St_Marx: Its an old HP Mini 311, I do have a dual boot, wifi will start IF I select to enable it, then it works fine. [14:00] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, yeah i'm having to compile ffmpeg for something else [14:00] _Crash_Laptop;~ if left over stuff small i'd just leave em [14:00] St_Marx: For some reason I have both hard and soft blocks stopping it on boot. Network-manager is told to auto connect to the network without success [14:00] good, for it would be a bad news, from my experience: I had to open a U310 Lenovo, and thus void the warranty , just to re-insert the battery, in order to be able to access the BIOS [14:01] Hyper320: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1599293 [14:01] Hello [14:01] _Crash_Laptop;~ i prefer a gui these days for converting stuff [14:02] <_Crash_Laptop> philinux, its on ubuntu server, for SErviio [14:02] besides VirtualBox and vmware, what other virtualization software exists, and is available in the ubuntu repos?

[14:05] Blinky_: So put it in /etc/rc.local [14:05] Blinky_: after installing linux, I played with the wifi for a while, and turned it off, through OS... my point is that after that switching, wifi wasn't functional at all, even though Network manager reckognised it [14:05] tushar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions (maby that will help) [14:06] Blinky_: But again, rfkill is kind of that way, if turned off, it will be turned off on next reboot, if on, it will be on next reboot, (at least, it seems to have worked that way for me once, not positive but...) [14:06] bdbear thank you, but its hard to follow for a newbie [14:07] hyper320: it arent that hard. Ill PM you and assist you. [14:07] Blinky_: But again, if you put the rfkill unblock command in /etc/rc.local, it *should* fix it for you, I would think.

[14:09] Blinky_: ... to make it permanent. [14:10] usr13: OK I placed rfkill unblock all into the rc.local just before the exit 0 and it has not worked.... As for the log does ubuntu not write the boot report to a log that you can view later?

How may I run the script after screen starts? [14:39] dweez: hmm, i don't think so... I just ran 'ls' in a terminal window in that directory, and Austin Powers III still comes before Austin Powers I and II :P [14:39] btw apologies for my poor taste in movies [14:40] lol, I love the AP movies [14:40] not sure then. So it shows up like this both in the GUI and cli?

When booting it appears to me in the boot.log to hang because it can write to the screen dir, as it hasn't loaded yet. If I copy the contents of the script and put in rc.local, it start fine. Can I somehow make the init.d file start after screen? [14:49] Rohan_: does it need to run as root? [14:49] ActionParsnip: I added a line in the sudoer that gives this user the permission to run this as root no password I beleive [14:50] ActionParsnip: here is the script site: https://github.com/superjamie/minecraft-init-script [14:50] Rohan_: if you make a script and add it to /etc/rc.local but backgrounded it will work [14:51] Rohan_: in the script, have 2 commands. One is a sleep (to allow the screen to load), then the command itself [14:51] ActionParsnip: I did do that and it did work, however I emailed the script writer, and I was told that was very bad form [14:51] Rohan_: with the script backgrounded, the boot will continue but the execution of the command will be delayed [14:51] Rohan_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1860295&page=3 [14:52] Is it possible to overclock a Radeon HD 6450 inside of the free drivers?

I have a problem with my laptop wireless card in linux (xubuntu or kali, you choose). It is a wifi(abgn)+BT4.0 miniPCI-E half module from Atheros. FCC ID is PPD-AR5B22 (wikidevi have info about it: https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Atheros_AR5B22 ). The problem is that loading to linux (e.g. xubuntu 14.04 livecd) somehow disables BT at all, even Windows can't see it after loading to Windows. [14:56] What helps return back bluetooth work at least in Windows is insert back my BCM943228HMB ( https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Broadcom_BCM943228HMB ) and again load to linux, because only linux enables back BT (I tried to load Windows after I inserted Broadcom module and Windows did not see the BT). [14:58] Is it possible to overclock a Radeon HD 6450 via the free drivers? [14:58] I have no useful data on my laptop so I can provide acces to it, if it is needed. [14:59] ActionParsnip: I tried sleep 20. It gives me the line that lets me know the script started, then probably hit sleep, then nothing else in the boot.log, and still no server running. Where can I find more details to what may have happened? [15:00] Rohan_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1860295&page=3 that was for you. This is how I launch x11vnc in xubuntu. Just a script in /etc/init with "start on login-session-start script [content] end script" [15:01] Rohan_: x11vnc should be launched when screen is initialized, so that thing helped me. [15:02] denixx: Got it. This server runs as its own user, and the script handles other items like backing up the server etc. [15:05] good morning. i'd like to stop a service from starting on boot [15:05] it's not upstart, i know that much [15:08] Have someone any ideas about AR5B22? [15:09] I want to use both WiFi and bluetooth in linux :'( [15:09] why cant you? [15:10] Or at least make linux not disable BT at all. [15:11] tonyt: When I insert AR5B22 and start xubuntu livecd - BT disappears. [15:13] I think it is somewhere in kernel, but I don't know precisely where to ask for help.

[16:00] hi denixx, nope but it's not only a wow issue. recent changes to the linux kernel in ubuntu 14.04 have broken compatibility for some wine/crossover apps, or so it seems. wow works just fine in vanilla wine, but i'd like to stick to crossover bc i purchased it some time ago.

[17:15] good [17:15] Beldar: I have an image of the devices, so I can restore if I hose something. [17:16] Soltis, Why would you just use the image? [17:16] not* [17:16] A1Recon maybe you have to set the keyboard shortcut manually [17:17] nm i found it. in kase this is logged its sudo apt-get remove pkgname for removing the packaged and then sudo apt-get autoremove [17:18] Beldar: Don't worry about the details; let's just say if I destroy the data I can restore it. [17:18] A1Recon: it is ctrl + super + d, (that shows the desktop) [17:18] Beldar: So I want to know how I can force-mount to try and recover any data, if it still exists. [17:19] Soltis, No problem, but myself I have limitations on how far I will go on a dubious situation, I don't enable in other words, others may. [17:20] Beldar: Basically I have an EBS snapshot of the devices in question [17:20] hello all [17:20] Beldar: The snapshot is itself dubious, but it means I can recreate the volumes if something breaks. [17:20] eeee: I remember I used to get the all the K/B shortcuts on one page if I held the Super key for a few seconds.... It doesn't work for me anymore.... Does this work for you?

[17:35] I am trying to change my mysql data directory (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), but am encountering an error that I do not understand. Here are the directions I'm following: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1795176/how-to-change-mysql-data-directory Here is a pastebin for the error that occurs on step 8 when I restart AppArmor: http://pastebin.com/925GDxVi and here is the apparmor file I just edited: http://pastebin.com/A4R9AD5S [17:37] brasileiro, You're using a Iomega screen play device, right? [17:37] At this point I've actually changed the data location back to the original location and it still won't work [17:38] wheatthin: what do u mean panned? [17:38] if I have a server with spaces how can i get to it from console? [17:38] fodler* not server [17:38] this game requires the folder name be the displayed name of the game.. and it has spaces so putty doesnt know how to get to it [17:38] Trudko, do you get an error in dmesg when you plug it in? [17:39] z1haze: either using or with quotes, or escaping\ each\ space [17:39] z1haze, yup backslash [17:39] brasileiro, Try this: http://screenplayprohd.wikia.com/wiki/Drive_not_detected [17:40] if the foldername was 'Folder Name' you'd use Folder\ Name [17:40] zling_, maybe something like: $cd my-special\ folder [17:40] trism, wheatthin: i have this [1dacd6]TGC-PVE\ NO\ !RAIDING! but its not working [17:40] z1haze: you have to escape the ! too [17:40] it's not recognizing the ! [17:40] oh so just / after each !? [17:41] backslash [17:41] not forward [17:41] ok my mistake [17:41] z1haze, backslash for the spae seperator [17:41] gotcha [17:41] space [17:42] ugh , stupid thing i still think i messed up [1dacd6]TGC-PVE\ NO\ !\RAIDING!\ [17:42] z1haze, or you can try using quotes :) [17:43] z1haze: the backslash goes before the thing to escape, but in this case I agree, '[1dacd6]TGC-PVE NO !RAIDING!' would be easier [17:43] z1haze, cd "Folder Name" [17:43] deception, the only thing would be update the firmware =/ [17:43] wheatthin: no everything is working ok [17:43] oh ok so just surround the whole thing witha single quote [17:44] geez that was easier, lol [17:44] thanks all [17:44] Trudko, can you pastebinit? [17:44] z1haze, If there's not paqrameter expansion needed, yes single quotes, if you need to expand something, like $HOME or $USER/ .. .. then you need double quoted "... ..."

How can i access the encrypted ubuntu partition from that img file? [18:09] ki7mt: no, I just softlinked mine local user to dman777_a: why is there terminal colors in my root user but not in my non root user? they are using the same /etc/bash.bashrc [18:09] eeee: I have ASUS K55VM [18:09] ki7mt: sorry [18:09] ki7mt: no, I just softlinked mine local user to /etc/bash.bashrc [18:09] i guess lubuntu don't have shortcuts or a way to set that stuff up [18:09] is your screen resolution 1024x768? [18:09] dman777_alter, I dont know, but each user has their own .bashrc file, I suspect that file, when logging in overrides the link, which you should need to do. [18:10] should not need to do [18:10] <^Lestat> I have been able to access the site in my browser via sitename.local But in the past 2 weeks I have not been able to view files via explorer as \\site.local\localweb [18:10] A1Recon: after you install compiz and check that box it should work [18:10] <^Lestat> which I am sharing via samba [18:10] <^Lestat> I can access it however by \\ip-address\localweb. [18:10] dman777_alter, As a test, enable color in the normal user .bashrc file [18:11] force_color_prompt=yes? [18:11] dman777_alter, I believe so yes, was just going to look at mine. [18:11] Sunstream: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Keyboard [18:12] <^Lestat> Also while editing files in my local editor(sublime) it sometimes takes a moment to catch up, as if the server or samba has fallen asleep? [18:13] Beldar [18:13] dman777_alter, Yes looks liek the correct list, you'll need to source that .bashrc also: source ~/.bashrc and may need to open a new terminal to take affect. [18:13] "looks like the correct line" [18:15] <^Lestat> would there be a better channel to ask in? [18:15] eeee: I get the numbers on the Launcher icon, not the Shortcut list even after I tweaked the setting in Compiz [18:15] Thre is no way for me to find shortcut keys Ido not have anything in systemtools or preferences [18:16] Sunstream: no "keyboard" in system settings ? [18:17] The WIKI page cleare states that: "There is no automatic way to create new keyboard shortcuts or hotkeys in lubuntu." [18:17] eeee: I think I will reinstall Ubuntu 14.04 and see how it goes....Too many bugs for me to handle .... Ubuntu Freezing....Nvidia GPU/Battery Backup only of 2 hrs..... [18:17] I do not see "system settings" i am in a lubuntu sesion [18:17] Followed by: ou will either have to edit Lubuntu's openbox configuration file (~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml) and edit, or alternatively install xbindkeys. [18:17] A1Recon: it might be a bug [18:18] shame on you lubuntu [18:18] A1Recon: do you need workspaces?

[18:19] Stupid question, and my google-fu isn't working: Can you overload keys in terminfo? For example, can I assign two different sequences to key_down? [18:19] eeee I have the workspaces... the four sort of parts of the screen? [18:19] because it doesn't seem to be loading env data i have configured in /etc/profile.d/secret_credentials.sh [18:19] A1Recon: yeah, i dont know if disabling them might get it to work, or changing the resolution. [18:20] I am trying to change my mysql data directory, but I am having a problem with apparmor, can anyone help? Here is a full description of the problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/490075/error-restarting-apparmor-while-changing-mysql-data-directory [18:20] cuz it says: "This is also known to affect 14.04 (without compiz) when workspaces are enabled and screen resolution is 1024x768." [18:21] eeee: Can I marry your brain? [18:21] lol, it worked ? [18:22] eeee: It works!! [18:22] great:D [18:23] eeee: Just disabling the workspaces worked!!

[18:27] even though the user doesnt exist in /etc/passwd, id $user shows the right path "/exports/home/$user" and ive logged them off and deleted /home/$user [18:27] Sunstream, that's part of the trade off, running on minimal hardware, with a minimal distro, you don't get every feature that the full disto enjoys. [18:28] BUT i started in unity [18:28] eeee: Is Unity tweak Tool the same as Compiz? [18:28] I thought it will still be installed [18:28] is there some cache file or something i need to delete [18:29] A1Recon: yeah pretty much [18:29] hello i was able to boot from an ubuntu live cd,now it prompts me for a username and password.i tried username ubuntu: pass: blank .but it was incorrect [18:29] usermod -d says no such user.. hmm [18:30] A1Recon: a feature of compiz i like is the click once on a launcher icon to minimize the window [18:30] you can check something and click on the icon again to minimize it [18:31] Hi everyone. I can't choose my language when I log in with lightdm. There isn't a language selector. Someone could help me plase ? [18:33] geekstay, Try Dash >> System >> Language Support, you may need to install the preferred Language set. [18:34] ki7mt : I installed my language set (French), and it's checked in the install menu. [18:35] geekstay, Have you logged out / bask in since the install ? It should not required a re-boot. but you could try that also. [18:36] ki7mt : I rebooted, and nothing changed. [18:36] -_- I guess I cannot mess with shortcuts oh well [18:36] I tried to add in the lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf, the following line : "show-selector-language=true" [18:37] Sunstream: i dont think theres anything you cant do..

[18:42] snuggles08 lm-sesnors is for monitoring, it can't do much [18:42] ki7mt : I can't selecting my language. French is not in the list.

If that doesn't work you file a bug. [18:46] geekstay, What Ubuntu are you using? [18:46] ki7mt : XUbuntu 14.04 [18:47] ki7mt : I come back, I log out. [18:48] ki7mt : nop, nothing changed. [18:48] codephobic, all those files are optional, system wide config applies in the absense of these. [18:48] geekstay, sudo apt-get install language-selector language-pack-fr language-support-fr [18:49] geekstay, After that, if no joy, Im out of Ideas, and you should ask others, or file a bug, as that should work.

[18:51] geekstay, You may want to ask in #ubuntu -fr also [18:51] #ubuntu-fr [18:51] Artemis3, anyway I can get them reinstalled? I want to write some custom aliases and have them apply to just this account. [18:51] codephobic, make them [18:52] codephobic, just copy them from /etc/skel .. then add the alias(s) to .bashrc file, and souroce it. [18:53] ah, wow. [18:53] or you could use .bash_aliases .. which is sourced by .bashrc if you have many aliases set up, I do that for pbuilder routines. [18:53] sorry, ki7mt what do you mean by "source it"? [18:54] codephobic, Log out / in or, in a terminal: source ~/.bashrc [18:54] ah [18:54] thanks! :) [18:54] codephobic, source is tells the shell to re-read the file. [18:54] ah, cool ... learned a little more linux today :D [18:55] now to sort out my compass/ruby permissions issue with samba ... fingers crossed. [18:55] thanks Artemis3, ki7mt [18:55] codephobic, Some things require a log out / in, but alias additions do not, simply source the file you add them too.

[19:33] kurtwp, if you mean Netboot ISO: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/netboot/trusty/ [19:33] yes [19:33] but what file should I download [19:33] kurtwp, What hardware do you have ? [19:34] 32bit [19:34] i386 then [19:34] I think I see it minit.iso - right [19:34] !Mint [19:34] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [19:34] it says permission denied, failed to retrieve directory listing, [19:34] but i have full ownership of it [19:34] ki7mt: mini not mint. [19:34] catalase:catalase i think [19:34] nvm [19:35] LOL mini :-) sri [19:35] ooos [19:35] oops [19:36] kurtwp, I suppose, they are "mini" iso's, you'll end up downloading allot of files in the end. [19:36] that is fine === reed_ is now known as reed [19:36] You can also use the Server ISO, and F4 to Minimal, which is a good foundation to work from. [19:38] catalase, sri lost my train of though there, so you mounted the the usb device and now cant access it? What Ubuntu version are you using? [19:39] ki7mt, nvm, i had to change ownership of usb from root to catalase === dfgas_off is now known as dfgas [19:40] catalase, yes, that was my next suggestion [19:40] thx u ki7mt [19:40] catalase, It should auto-mount though, so you should look into why it's not doing that. [19:41] ki7mt, not sure. but i added it to fstab [19:41] and now it automounts every time on boot === fiete is now known as Guest97105 [19:43] catalase, that works I suppose, as long as you dont change USB ports. [19:43] ya [19:47] Does anyone know how to edit gmc user settings [19:48] I meant gdm [19:48] catalase, You test it, by running: sudo blkid on port-A, then umount, add to a different port-B, adn sudo blkid again see if the UUID changes, then add the UUID to FSTAB [19:48] you can test it by .. [19:49] sri if it does not change .. but I suspect it would change [19:49] cemotyz09 is this useful https://people.gnome.org/~shaunm/admin-guide/gdm-2.html [19:51] ki7mt: it shouldn't change according to the comments in /etc/fstab [19:51] hi [19:51] cemotyz09, Linke-1: https://help.gnome.org/admin/gdm/stable/configuration.html.en .. Linke-2: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/en/man1/gdm.1.html [19:51] "# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a device" [19:52] eeee, Yeah, I've not tested that in a while, that's why I suggested the test first. [19:57] vsftpd - refusing to run with writable root inside chroot() [19:57] What do I do? [19:57] I don’t want my users to see all home dirs [19:58] ajf, What version of Ubuntu? === YuviPanda|food is now known as YuviPanda [19:58] ki7mt: Ubuntu Server 12.10 [19:58] ajf: whats the actual error [19:59] ikonia: The above [19:59] ajf, Fist off you should get off of 12.10 on a server, Currently supported: 10.04 LTS (server) 12.04 LTS, 13.10, and 14.04 LTS [19:59] ok [20:00] ajf, I would suggest 13.10 either, as that is EOL Next month. [20:00] sri would nto suggest. [20:00] How can i tell if a chip is supprted by ubuntu? RTL 8139 in my case. That's a chip for networking by (i am guessing) realtek. Is there some HCL for ubuntu? 12.04 in my case but soon -when 14.04 update is available - i will use 14.04 [20:00] !hcl | Daghdha [20:00] Daghdha: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [20:00] ki7mt: What’s the proper command to upgrade distro? [20:01] !upgrade | ajf [20:01] ajf: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [20:01] ajf: If this is a VPS, look at your provider's documentation as well. [20:01] OK [20:01] hey guys, I was wondering whether you would know if there was a way to install Pantheon in Ubuntu 14.04? I tried adding the stable PPA and I got a 404 error. I followed the ppa link and it seems there's no directory for Tahr included in the PPA. [20:01] Thank you Jordan_U [20:01] Daghdha: You're welcome. [20:02] Alpha-Omega maybe you should contact the maintainer [20:02] ajf: And in the future, for servers you may be running for a long time (which is most, even if long use isn't "planned"), you should try to stick to LTS releases, which have much longer support periods. [20:03] I know [20:03] Alpha-Omega it says here, pantheon is elementary-os thingy [20:03] is an* [20:04] MonkeyDust: Yes, it's basically the DE of the elementaryOS distribution, but I want to use it under Ubuntu [20:05] im trying to create a bootable usb with windows 7 on it. I tried unetbootin but it does not detect NTFS drives. so i downloaded unetbootin 494 but i can't get it to run [20:05] is there any way to get it to run or some alternative? [20:05] wsfsdf: format the drive [20:06] wsfsdf methinks you have to ask in #windows, how to make windows live bootable [20:06] ajf: i have it formatted to fat32 which unetbootin recognises but windows installer need ntfs [20:06] Oh, right. You also can’t make Windows bootables w/ UNetBootin [20:06] UNetBootin isn’t magic sauce [20:06] it only really works with certain Linux distros [20:06] While I'm having a problem with WINE, I suspect this is a more general Ubuntu problem. My WoW updater updates itself, but when I quit and run it again it's the old version. I suspect this is a file permission issue because I copied the files from a Windows installation of WoW. Is there a simple way to check and fix this? [20:07] it can’t make any ISO suddenly become bootable on a USB [20:07] wsfsdf: maybe try this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/289559/how-can-i-create-a-windows-bootable-usb-stick-with-ubuntu === jowi_ is now known as jowi [20:07] LonelyDanbo: Sure [20:07] Go to your wineprefix [20:07] Use Ctrl+H to show hidden files in your home dir [20:07] go into .wine [20:07] I made a new wineprefix for this. [20:07] Ah [20:07] go into it and have a look at the files, I suppose? [20:08] ls -l might be clearer than manually looking with Properties in the GUI [20:08] Alpha-Omega: ill try that thanks, i was trying to get winusb to install but the repo was out of date, but that fix might work thanks [20:08] Hey how come when I do `sudo apt-get install rubygems` it says `Package rubygems is not available, but is referred to by another package.`? [20:08] Guys some good tool which would create image from my ubuntu installation so I can easily reinstall it? I am returning laptop I own for repair and I want to remove ubuntu from it and easily recovery it [20:09] wsfsdf: np [20:09] hello everyone. I hope you're doing well. I'm looking for a remote administration tool (gui) for BIND similar to Windows RSAT. RSAT works well but it's on a XP machine that will be scrapped and wish to go full Ubuntu. [20:09] Blaster type apt-cache search rubygems to what packages they mean [20:09] all the "-rwxrwxr-x" means full permissions, I'm guessing. :| then I gotta figure out what's wrong. [20:09] Blaster to know what packages they mean* [20:09] it is the last win machine on my network and i wish to get rid of it :) [20:10] MonkeyDust: It seems that the 404 may be because it cannot find the Tahr folder on the PPA server, I wonder if I change sources to check for the previous Ubuntu release and use that if the installation may complete. [20:10] Alpha-Omega: that instlled thanks again dude [20:10] wsfsdf: yeah np, hopefully it works [20:11] Hi folks - I have a problem with LightDM. It "just doesn't work" when root is over NBD, but works fine when root is over NFS. [20:11] Unsuccessful lightdm startup: http://bpaste.net/show/422671/ --- successful startup: http://bpaste.net/show/422771/ [20:11] "doesn't work" doesn't cut it [20:11] explain the problem, if you are netbooting nfs, you should be able to explain a problem clearly [20:12] ikonia: Relax, hombre, we're getting there. :P [20:12] jowi, Looking into Samba4 IS AD, though I've not used the implementation myself, there's plenty of resource documentation. [20:12] ckindley: so straight away http://bpaste.net/show/422671/ [20:12] oops [20:12] ikonia: The difference is that gnome-settings-daemon has a fatal IO error. (gnome-settings-daemon:1415): Gdk-WARNING **: gnome-settings-daemon: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0. [20:12] ckindley: [+0.07s] WARNING: Failed to open sessions directory: Error opening directory '/usr/share/lightdm/remote-sessions': No such file or directory [20:12] what do all the letters mean in the ls -l results? [20:12] it looks like your nfs is not stable [20:12] I tried to man ls and didn't see it mentioned there. [20:13] ikonia: That's superfluous. [20:13] this also appears to be gentoo - not ubuntu [20:13] LonelyDanbo, type: man ls [20:13] ikonia: Well, you at least noticed something... [20:13] I did type man ls [20:13] I noticed your nfs is unstable [20:13] My NFS is fine. [20:13] Can anybody help setup a bonded network card. It claims to be up, but no traffic will flow. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7728111/ [20:13] LonelyDanbo, then you shoudl have seen: -l use a long listing format [20:13] doesn't look like it [20:13] ki7mt, yeah, I have samba/kerberos/bind/etc all set up with a domain, domain controllers and clients. just need a remote gui for bind [20:13] ckindley: I suggest you take this to the gentoo guys [20:13] Maybe I shouldn't have come here - I figured that a few folks might know a thing or two about LightDM. [20:14] ki7mt, yes, but it doesn't list what all the letters are for. [20:14] ikonia: Suggestion duly noted. Where do you think I started, being a 'gentoo guy?' [20:14] LonelyDanbo, Yes it does, -l == long format [20:14] no, I mean all the drxrwrw stuff [20:15] ki7mt, the "drwxrwxr-x" stuff it spits out when I actually type "ls -l" [20:15] jowi, I suppose, you could look at the web-based Samba Admin tools, [20:15] directory - read - write - execute - read - write - execute - read - write - execute [20:15] user|grp|others [20:16] hm... what's the 3rd repetition of those for? [20:16] others [20:16] oh. [20:16] rwx|rwx|rwx = user|group|others [20:17] rwx = 7 [20:17] r = 4 [20:17] w = 6 [20:17] thanks. [20:17] LonelyDanbo, More Info: http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/309527-understanding-linux-file-permissions [20:17] x = 7 [20:17] its 421 [20:17] unfortunately it means I didn't find the problem with the file not updating itself. :( [20:17] all together = 7 [20:18] understood? or need other example? [20:18] its pretty easy when you realized how it works [20:19] ki7mt, my DC's are Zentyal and there is no plugin for that. Which is why I'm looking for remote administration tool for DNS [20:19] ok how the hell do I turn off chat bubbles in Xchat [20:20] ki7mt, something like gadmin-bind but for remote server [20:22] ki7mt, perhaps RSAT for Ubuntu simply doesn't exist (I've been searching). It just feels wrong keeping a Win box to administer Linux servers and clients :) [20:24] jowi, No I dont RAST equal for Linux exists inf the OS domain, I think there's commercial apps available though, but cost allot of $$ [20:24] jowi, That's why I thought maybe Samba IA AD but if that doesn't work not sure where to go from there. === randall is now known as Guest75516 [20:25] .. Samba IS AD .. .. [20:25] ki7mt, thank's for your time. If I don't find anything else I'll see if I can fix something up in Python [20:25] anyone here seen an issue with 14.04 running on ESXi and networking just stops and even setting a static address in /etc/network/interfaces does not work...however if I manually enter IP info from cli it will start working [20:26] Finally [20:26] once I do "sha256sum some-file.tar.bz2", is there a way I can send that line to "grep" to check if the line is inside a file that indexes a bunch of signatures? [20:28] Genitrust: sha256sum -c cheksumfile filetocheck [20:28] done [20:28] Genitrust, save the shasum to a var, then do a loop through the file bu line and pattern match [20:28] testing [20:28] ahh lemme try both [20:29] what-s the apt-get command to dump the cache? (I need some space) [20:29] man apt-get [20:29] apt-cache tab tab [20:29] ahh cool, i find that just "sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS.asc" does the job [20:30] CarlFK: apt-get clean [20:30] ...as long as all files are in the same directory [20:30] Pici: thanks [20:30] There it nowjoins freenode and the 2 channles now to figure out how to shut off the chat bubb;es [20:30] does anyone speak french ? [20:31] Genitrust, checkout LFS, they have a nice tutorial using popd / pushd for lots of files to test after download, to much to type here. [20:31] i write with a girl and dont know what she is saying [20:31] brazzo1, maybe in #ubuntu-fr [20:32] thanks ki7mt :) [20:32] brazzo1: https://translate.google.com/ [20:32] brazzo1, so you are not sure it is a girl? [20:33] writing it to a var is just waste of time, since you can handle it with the tool itself... anyways :) [20:33] OerHeks: You may not be sure, but brazzo1 apparently is. [20:33] Genitrust, Here's the page I was thinking about: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter03/introduction.html [20:33] @OerHeks im sure she is a girl but i did not no that she doesn't speak english :D [20:33] How is this anything to do with ubuntu support? [20:34] oooo awesome... ki7mt you rock! [20:34] Genitrust, Which uses the method subz3r0 recommended: md5sum -c md5sums [20:34] OerHeks: My assumption has been confirmed. [20:35] ki7mt: i just like it simple :) [20:35] does anyone know how to view raw file thumbnails in the file explorer? [20:35] like .cr2 files. [20:35] ubuntu 14 [20:36] think so [20:36] tomengland: google: " ubuntu cr2 files" [20:36] first entry: http://www.madox.net/blog/2008/11/25/how-to-open-canon-cr2-raws-in-ubuntu/ [20:36] ? [20:36] no [20:36] not open a cr2 file [20:37] view their thumbnails in the file manager [20:37] google: ubuntu cr2 nautilus [20:37] http://ubuntuguide.net/raw-cr2-image-preview-in-gnome-nautilus-using-gnome-raw-thumbnail [20:37] this one? [20:38] yeah gnome-raw-thumbnail is very slow in ubuntu 14 [20:38] or just: sudo apt-get install gnome-raw-thumbnailer && sudo nautilus -q [20:38] ohh, okay [20:38] never used it. so that was my first guess to search for it :) [20:39] is there a way to replace the native file manager in ubuntu? [20:40] what's the proper format for this command? Exec=wine "C:\\Program Files\\WoW\\Launcher.exe" [20:40] I know of a gnome based file manager that does this natively [20:40] tomengland: Yes [20:40] tomengland: Your choice [20:40] it's for a .desktop file. === dfgas is now known as dfgas_off [20:40] damnn it I cannot get the chat bubbles to go away [20:41] LonelyDanbo: long time agon since i started an app from the cmd line. wasnt it just wine path/to/exe? [20:41] LonelyDanbo, You probably want something like: wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Wow.exe. [20:41] tomengland: thunar konqueror nautilus dolphin ...... [20:42] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DefaultFileManager [20:42] or use playonlinux. you can easily create desktop icons with it [20:42] Sunstream: try irssi [20:42] is that still the course of action? [20:42] Sunstream: xchat? you can turn them off in the options [20:43] Sunstream: You can also ask in xchat's channel, which is #xchat [20:43] Pici: Very cleverly named channel! [20:43] lol === step21_ is now known as step21 [20:43] not to state the obvious ey :-) [20:44] I was trying to avoid the full path and using a relative directory from inside the fake Windows directory, but I'm not sure if it really matters. [20:45] I changed my mysql data directory. I got it to work initially, but on restart I can no longer get the the database to start. Here are the directions that I followed: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1795176/how-to-change-mysql-data-directory [20:45] LonelyDanbo, Create an alias in .bashrc .. then Ctrl+Alt+T .. WoW job done [20:45] * nuno_nunes boa noite, goedenavond, goodnight [20:46] pythonirc101: dont you think its better to ask in #mysql? [20:46] pythonista: #mysql === dfgas_off is now known as dfgas [20:47] hm. beyond me. maybe I'll go with your first suggestion. [20:48] LonelyDanbo, You shoudl really look at Linux Aliases they are == Windows Shortcuts, and make live very easy [20:48] but the syntax changes whether it's in double-quotes or not? [20:48] make life .. .. [20:48] Hold on one. === dw1 is now known as dw2 [20:49] somehow it works one way but not the other. [20:49] "" or '' [20:49] both should work [20:49] LonelyDanbo, type: echo >> wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Wow.exe ~/.bachrc [20:50] LonelyDanbo, sir my bad, updated: echo >> alias WoW='wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Wow.exe' ~/.bachrc [20:50] source ~/.bashrc [20:50] then: WoW [20:50] I gotta modify it somewhat, since it's .wine_WoW [20:51] LonelyDanbo, Sure, edit as needed, was just an example. [20:52] command not found. :D [20:52] hello [20:52] huh I wonder which command was not found... [20:52] LonelyDanbo, what command did you run ?> [20:53] ki7mt: The command you provided is not correct. It should be echo text >> filename not echo >> text filename [20:53] I ran echo >> alias WoW='wine ~/.wine_WoW/drive_c/Program\ Files/WoW/Launcher.exe' ~/.bachrc [20:53] and then typed WoW [20:53] ~/.bachrc ? :D [20:53] :P [20:54] was supposed to be bashrc? [20:54] oh boy. [20:54] LOL sri, yes ~/.bashrc whoops\ [20:55] nope. still can't find WoW [20:55] WoW: command not found === JimFenton_ is now known as JimFenton [20:56] LonelyDanbo: that only adds that to .bashrc [20:56] Someone say hi [20:56] type alias, do you see it there? [20:56] LonelyDanbo, Pici Was correct, im dislyexic :-): echo >> ~/.bashrc alias Wow='wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Wow.exe' [20:56] ki7mt: you did it wrong again. === dw2 is now known as dw1 [20:56] Ok fix it then.l [20:56] what does it do if I typo it as .bachrc ? do I need to go delete a mutant file? [20:56] LonelyDanbo: echo alias Wow='wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Wow.exe' >> ~/.bashrc [20:56] yay fixed it [20:57] lool [20:57] :D [20:57] No more screen filling up [20:57] LonelyDanbo: or just open up ~/.bashrc and manually put that as the last thing in the file. [20:57] LonelyDanbo: yes, since you echoed it in the wrong file [20:57] I can't even find .bashrc [20:57] ls -lah | grep bachrc [20:57] yes, becaude its hidden [20:57] Pici, This also works: echo >> ~/.bashrc alias Wow='wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Wow.exe' [20:58] hidden files start with a . [20:58] I got hidden files shown [20:58] I just tested it, twice. [20:58] open a terminal and do ls -lah [20:58] or just ls -a [20:58] but i like -lah more... anyways :) [20:59] ohhhh. for some reason I was expecting a folder, not a file. I'm... really tired. I should have checked more carefully. [20:59] no typoed .bachrc though. [20:59] :) [21:00] oh, probably because the command didn't create the file. oh man... I bet it overwrote my Update.exe instead of the .bashrc [21:00] Hoever, you need double quotes though: echo >> ~/.bashrc alias "Wow='wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Wow.exe'" [21:04] did it mess up my updater.exe file with that command? do I have to go plug in my dying external HD to get the original file? >> adds to the end of a file, doesn't it. [21:05] LonelyDanbo, No it should not mess with your updater.exe .. and yes ">>" is append to [21:05] oh. I guess that bad command wrote... absolutely nothing to... "alias" [21:06] but no alias file [21:06] LonelyDanbo: go sleep a bit and try it tomorrow again. :) [21:06] LonelyDanbo, Edit the file manually then, add the alias as desired, then source your .bashrc [21:06] will be a lot easier :P [21:06] yeah. I'm getting insanely retarded. [21:06] was just trying to make sure I didn't have more mess to clean up. [21:06] also just an advice... dont work as root in the bash when beeing tired ;) [21:07] It's not a mess, it's just what it is [21:07] weird things can happen :P [21:07] I thought it might have caused a mess. [21:07] worst case you would have created a useless file, which could be deleted. [21:08] LonelyDanbo, echo is fairly safe :-) rm -R or rm -F on the other had, things can go wrong in a hurry. [21:08] guess I just... in the file .bashrc, I add alias Wow='wine ~/.wine_WoW/drive_c/Program\ Files/WoW/Launcher.exe' [21:09] LonelyDanbo, Loog reasonable, yes [21:09] looks [21:09] bleh. tell me about it. I wiped a partition with all my backup data on it a few months ago thinking it was a USB drive. T_T I still gotta get around to trying to recover that. [21:10] bleh. still doesn't work. [21:10] very strange. [21:10] " LonelyDanbo, echo is fairly safe :-) rm -R or rm -F on the other had, things can go wrong in a hurry." [21:11] and whats about rm -rf? [21:11] ;P [21:11] subz3r0, Yeah, that's really bad [21:11] hehe [21:11] LonelyDanbo, After adding the alias, did you source ~/.bashrc [21:12] no idea atm about the us keyboard ... but on ours on the numpad is /* directly next to each other [21:12] and rm -rf /* as root wont be good :) [21:12] source? no. how do you do that? [21:12] subz3r0, is Sht+8 so pretty safe here on that one. [21:13] ki7mt: you dont have them on the numpad? [21:13] uhg. I gotta add in the option to launch this WINE app without a terminal! it keeps spitting out text while the game is running in another window. :P [21:13] LonelyDanbo, After adding an entry into your ~/.bashrc file you have to log out / in or, in the terminal: source ~/.bashrc [21:13] the .desktop installation instructions had something for that. [21:13] subz3r0, DOnt use the numpad [21:13] ahh okay [21:13] but /* are next to each other there for sure. [21:14] What ubuntu version would you recomend it you dont like unity? [21:14] ki7mt: since i need to type a lot of IPs, i use the numpad instead... a lot faster [21:14] I would think so yeah [21:14] qwart: ubuntu gnome 14.04, lubuntu, xubuntu [21:14] i prefer ubuntu gnome [21:14] I really like the windows manager in fedora [21:14] but it depends of the own taste ofc [21:15] no idea whats used in fedora [21:15] Youtube is offically crap now [21:15] but you can install almost any DE in ubuntu [21:15] qwart, UBuntu with Mate, LDXE, Cinnamon Razor-QT, gosh there's loads of them. [21:15] Is there something similar for ubuntu?

[21:24] any thoughts as to where to start troubleshooting this? [21:24] ki7mt, just to run into the problems before the DD does [21:25] bing, Why can you use pbuilder / pbuild-dist and build it yourself ?

[21:39] Thank you :) [21:40] I mean, the first time I tried to get my Linux installation working, or WINE, it took DAYS. [21:40] LonelyDanbo, for me, it's usually the things "not to do" that stick, but still have to go look for "what to do" :-) [21:41] wine sucks [21:41] yeah. not formatting your HD instead of your USB stick.

[21:53] YokoBR, How about the previous kernel? Has this been always the panic? [21:54] nope, just this kernel Beldar [21:54] I was here yesterday [21:54] i was able to boot blacklisting it.

I've shared my ubuntu dropbox folder within the lan and chmod 777 on it. The other computers (Windows 7 machines) can see and read/write to it on the lan. However, if a remote non-lan pc creates a file and that file is downloaded by ubuntu dropbox, that file only has Read permissions (hence nobody on the lan can write to it. They get Access Denied when trying to mak [23:54] raspberrypifan: on ubuntu there is none [23:54] If in Ubuntu I chmod that said file to 777 then it allows writing from the lan again. So I guess I'm asking how I can have newly created files by ubuntu dropbox inherit the 777 permissions [23:54] what if i try to do su [23:55] raspberrypifan: dont do that. is this a rpi? [23:56] no [23:56] on a vm === morenoh153 is now known as morenoh149 [23:56] raspberrypifan: to gain root privileges, use sudo and your normal user password [23:56] raspberrypifan, You might research admin options in ubuntu, it has it's own setup, all the same access as others just differing commands than other OS's.
