| fhenning09 | Hey guys anyone know how to pull all zip files from this site: http://video.udacity-data.com/zip/cs101/ | 00:02 |
| aramil | anyone? | 00:04 |
| Caroga_mint | Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/314951 | 00:06 |
| Jeruvy | aramil why not just install virtualbox and install xp in that on the second hdd? The preferred way to dual-boot is to install Windows first, then Ubuntu. | 00:06 |
| Caroga_mint | Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/314952 | 00:06 |
| funtable | i like virtualbox option | 00:07 |
| aramil | because from what i read i will need to do something with hardware profiles with a virtualbox install | 00:07 |
| Jeruvy | aramil then I would start over. | 00:08 |
| aramil | meaning uninstall lubuntu? | 00:08 |
| Jeruvy | Meaning install Windows XP, then install Ubuntu. | 00:09 |
| Caroga_mint | also, you could just install windows to the second partition/hdd and then boot up a live cd to install a new grub bootloader. aramil Jeruvy | 00:09 |
| Jeruvy | Caroga_mint thats aalso a decent option. | 00:09 |
| Caroga_mint | grub would pick up ubuntu as well and you'd have a nice dual boot without uninstalling ubuntu | 00:09 |

| Caroga_mint | takes less time and there is plenty of good documentation on how to install grub to 'recover' ubuntu | 00:10 |
| aramil | i cant get the windows install to work it needs to install some startup files but it only chooses the linux partion | 00:10 |
| OerHeks | imagebin contains malware (again) | 00:10 |
| Jordan_U | aramil: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 00:11 |
| Caroga_mint | Jordan_U: u received screenshots? | 00:11 |
| Jordan_U | Caroga_mint: Please file a bug report about this. | 00:11 |
| Jordan_U | !bug | Caroga_mint | 00:11 |
| ubottu | Caroga_mint: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 00:11 |
| Caroga_mint | Jordan_U: GPT vs. MsDos partition table, what is a wise choice? | 00:12 |
| Jordan_U | Caroga_mint: In your case, the ideal would be to run "ubunut-bug ubiquity" while this error is showing. | 00:12 |
| Jordan_U | Caroga_mint: GPT allows for much more flexibility. | 00:12 |
| Caroga_mint | ty | 00:13 |
| Caroga_mint | Also, installing the bootloader to the Volume0 would be recommended right ? | 00:13 |
| aramil | what happens is when i select the partition that i used gparted to format for windows it says it needs to install files to the linux partition which it cant with out deleting it | 00:14 |
| bryan | hello I installed macbuntu on my ubuntu 14.04 but when it loads to the lockscreen it stays black anyone can help? | 00:19 |

| bryan | hello I installed macbuntu on my ubuntu 14.04 but when it loads to the lockscreen it stays black anyone can help? | 00:21 |
| OerHeks | bryan, macbuntu is not supported here. | 00:21 |
| bryan | oh then where? | 00:22 |
| Caroga_mint | OerHeks: dutch ? | 00:22 |
| pooriya | what is the best download manager for ubuntu? | 00:22 |
| OerHeks | bryan, look at the page where you found macbuntu | 00:22 |
| OerHeks | Caroga_mint, jups | 00:22 |
| Caroga_mint | isnt macbuntu EOL ? | 00:22 |
| Caroga_mint | you can always pick the dutch people out of a crowd, wherever you go xD | 00:23 |
| pooriya | what is the best download manager for ubuntu? | 00:24 |
| funtable | pooriya, i like to download with 'wget' software | 00:25 |
| chreuben | pooriya: There are some excellent plugins for Chrome or Firefox. | 00:25 |
| Caroga_mint | lol funtable | 00:25 |
| funtable | =) | 00:25 |
| chreuben | pooriya: DownThemAll is popular. | 00:25 |
| pooriya | i like some app like idm , | 00:25 |
| OerHeks | pooriya, that is a matter of opinion, http://askubuntu.com/questions/32850/what-download-managers-are-available-for-ubuntu | 00:25 |
| OerHeks | there is no single best. | 00:26 |
| aramil | so will i need to wipe lubuntu to install windows xp? | 00:26 |
| Caroga_mint | Jordan_U: I've created the bug report. | 00:26 |
| aramil | to dualboot | 00:26 |
| pooriya | tnx , any one have idm for wine? | 00:27 |
| OerHeks | aramil, the official guide says: install windows, then ubuntu | 00:28 |
| Caroga_mint | aramil: no, if you want a side2side installation with an existing ubuntu install then you could also just install windows where you want it and later use a livecd to "recover" the ubuntu installation | 00:28 |
| Caroga_mint | the livecd will need to install a new grub bootloader, which will pick up Windows and Ubuntu alongside each other. | 00:28 |
| OerHeks | aramil, but xp is worthless without updates :-D | 00:28 |
| Caroga_mint | XP is worthless, your sentence should have ended there. | 00:28 |
| aramil | but the windows install wants me to delete the linux partition even though there is a 30gb free hard drive | 00:29 |
| OerHeks | oke, forget the ":-D" | 00:29 |
| aramil | i want winxp for some games like the sims 1 | 00:30 |
| pooriya | any one have idm for wine? | 00:30 |
| aramil | cant i create a new partition on the hard drive with linux installed with out destorying the whole thing? like /dev/sda2? | 00:32 |
| Caroga_mint | aramil: you can choose what windows should install and where, search for any advanced installation setup. | 00:32 |
| Caroga_mint | OerHeks: lol | 00:32 |
| Caroga_mint | aramil: why not run it in wine, use some program that installs the sims for u, or even create a virtualbox for it. | 00:32 |
| aramil | sims cant run it wine :-( | 00:33 |
| aramil | and i tried vb lagg | 00:33 |
| Caroga_mint | aramil: have you looked here? http://www.playonlinux.com/en/supported_apps-1-0.html | 00:34 |
| aramil | yes | 00:34 |
| Caroga_mint | ah bummer | 00:34 |
| aramil | sims 1 never could run in wine i tried | 00:35 |
| Caroga_mint | oke | 00:35 |
| Caroga_mint | Well I know that WinXP can be configured on different partitions as well, just search for it in the installation setup | 00:35 |
| OerHeks | aramil, is it a SATA hdd ? | 00:36 |
| aramil | i have no idea | 00:36 |
| Caroga_mint | smoke-break! | 00:37 |

| OerHeks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot#Installing_Windows_After_Ubuntu | 00:38 |
| OerHeks | still the best way is windows first, then ubuntu | 00:39 |

| Caroga_mint_afk | srro frobware | 00:41 |
| aramil | its on /dev/sda | 00:41 |
| Caroga_mint_afk | Frogging101: ^^ | 00:42 |
| greggo | and you have a 2nd physical drive? | 00:42 |
| greggo | like a /dev/sdb | 00:42 |
| Frogging101 | Caroga_mint_afk: Unfortunately I could not find it there | 00:42 |
| Frogging101 | Those are all the current ones, I'm looking for past releases | 00:42 |
| aramil | yes /dev/sdb | 00:42 |
| greggo | are you trying to share the 2nd drive with Ubuntu and Windows? and leave /dev/sda dedicated to Lubuntu? | 00:43 |
| greggo | what's the desired end result? | 00:43 |
| Caroga_mint_afk | greggo: he wants to have a dual boot with winxp and lubuntu, separated over 2 hdd's | 00:44 |
| aramil | to have lubuntu on 1st hd and windows xp on hard drive 2 and boot ether one from grub | 00:44 |
| greggo | ok... i have similar set up, what problems? | 00:44 |
| greggo | oh grub | 00:44 |
| greggo | i never set up grub i just use my bios to select booting to either drive | 00:45 |
| aramil | grub is not whats wrong | 00:45 |
| greggo | but i'm set up exactly like that except i have 2 separate drives with Ubuntu on one and (unfortunately) Windows on the other | 00:45 |
| OerHeks | Frogging101, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 00:46 |
| greggo | your bios have like a quick menu to pick drive to boot from? | 00:46 |
| Frogging101 | OerHeks: Does this include mainline (i.e. not stable) kernel releases? | 00:46 |
| aramil | the windows installer complains about /dev/sda being not windows compatible because it wants to put some startup files there even though i select /dev/sdb | 00:47 |
| OerHeks | Frogging101, those are the kernels released, why do you want to know ? | 00:47 |
| Frogging101 | Or is there a way to tell the difference | 00:47 |
| OerHeks | Frogging101, so some research yourself, if you do not believe that list. | 00:47 |
| CavemanSean | got another samba share question for you guys, I finally got it working how-ever now I see all these tdb files, is it possible to remove them without 'breaking' anything? | 00:47 |
| OerHeks | + | 00:47 |
| greggo | hmm. never run into that before, you have multiple Windows flavors to try out? | 00:47 |
| Frogging101 | OerHeks: I do believe that list, but some releases are not "stable" | 00:48 |
| aramil | no | 00:48 |
| OerHeks | Frogging101, any old kernel is not stable anymore, so what is the use of your search ? | 00:48 |
| greggo | shooting in the dark but it sounds like a strange release of Windows.. got me kid. | 00:48 |
| Frogging101 | Not stable anymore? But it was at one point marked as stable. | 00:49 |
| greggo | since when does windows refer to drives as /dev/sda though? i'm a lil fuzzy but i thought Windows called drives by some other naming scheme | 00:50 |
| aramil | it calls them hd0,0 i think or something like that | 00:50 |
| greggo | absolutely sure you're picking the right drive then? | 00:51 |
| aramil | yes | 00:51 |
| usr13 | CavemanSean: I don't know what "tdb" files would have to do with anything. Are "tdb" files for some sort of database? | 00:51 |
| CavemanSean | no idea, heh' I just reboot the file server and seen them >_> figured Ubuntu created them because they all have samba in their name | 00:52 |
| greggo | aramil: have you tried unplugging one drive? | 00:52 |
| usr13 | CavemanSean: So, if you get rid of some "tdb" files, I suppose you might break some sort of database system... | 00:52 |
| greggo | install separately with just one drive plugged in, then plug them both in | 00:52 |
| OerHeks | CavemanSean, no > https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/tdb.html | 00:52 |
| aramil | maybe that will work | 00:52 |
| usr13 | CavemanSean: Just move them or rename them and see. | 00:53 |
| aramil | i could try installing xp with just one hd plugged in | 00:53 |
| greggo | yes | 00:53 |
| aramil | ok i will go do that then thanks for the help :-D | 00:54 |
| usr13 | OerHeks: Oh, ok. Thanks for the info. | 00:54 |

| gartral | SuperBawlz: ok, there are a few options.. seeing as you mainly want a "mail sink" server, setup is easier.. | 02:06 |
| SuperBawlz | I can deal with changing the port later if I need to. I'm more concerned with getting it set up. | 02:06 |
| SuperBawlz | mail sink? | 02:07 |
| gartral | SuperBawlz: kinda my own term.. basicially a machine dedicated as a mail client | 02:07 |
| SuperBawlz | that's a term that I haven't heard. | 02:07 |
| SuperBawlz | No. | 02:07 |

| SuperBawlz | ok. | 02:12 |
| SuperBawlz | is it postfix and courier? | 02:13 |
| SuperBawlz | or is it postfix or courier? | 02:13 |
| gartral | SuperBawlz: Dovecot is the most widely used MDA, but Courier has facilities to do more or less what your looking for | 02:13 |

| jay_ | hey friends. i am trying GNOME. the exact program name from ubuntu software manager is Full GNOME Desktop Environment, with extra components | 02:17 |
| jay_ | how do i remove this safely and entirely when i'm done with it? | 02:17 |
| jay_ | holstein, i'm looking at you | 02:18 |
| jay_ | or anyone else with a good answer for me lol | 02:18 |
| usr13 | jay_: You want to remove what? | 02:20 |
| Beldar | jay_, sudo apt-get remove "package name as installed" | 02:20 |
| usr13 | jay_: Can't you just go into the package manager and find it? | 02:21 |
| jay_ | ok Beldar here's my question. what exactly do i type for the package name? | 02:21 |
| usr13 | jay_: How did you install it? | 02:21 |
| jay_ | it's name is "Full GNOME Desktop Environment, with extra components" | 02:21 |
| jay_ | through the ubuntu software manager | 02:21 |
| usr13 | jay_: Then go there and uninstall it. | 02:22 |
| Beldar | jay_, Never heard of the extra component's but ubuntu-gnome-desktop is the de name | 02:22 |
| jay_ | ah but see, i did that with KDE usr13 and it didn't uninstall like 30 freakin' KDE programs. just the desktop | 02:22 |
| jay_ | i want it ALL removed when i'm done | 02:22 |
| usr13 | jay_: You found it once, you can find it again. | 02:22 |
| Beldar | jay_, Be careful gnome 3 underlies unity and other desktops. | 02:23 |
| Jordan_U | jay_: Does "sudo apt-get autoremove" prompt you to remove anything now? If not, then after you remove the metapackage it will, and those things that it prompts to remove will be everything that was installed when you installed that package. apt-get autoremove removes all pacakges that were automatically installed as a dependency of a package that has since been removed. | 02:23 |
| usr13 | jay_: But why? Are you running low on disk space? | 02:23 |
| jay_ | oh neato Jordan_U ! that's exactly what i need! | 02:23 |
| Roey | usr13: I don't see it advancing when I do that command | 02:24 |
| Roey | it is just frozen there | 02:24 |
| Roey | doesn't respond to input | 02:24 |
| usr13 | Roey: What command? | 02:24 |
| jay_ | no usr13. because i'll never use it again. i'm just checking out different DEs and it's annoying to have 30 "K" programs to sift through after i uninstall it | 02:24 |
| usr13 | jay_: Ok, so uninstall it. | 02:25 |
| jay_ | Jordan_U, i assume there is a website for this, but could you direct me to where i can get a list of how to use apt? | 02:25 |
| Roey | usr13: play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/* | 02:25 |
| jay_ | and it's commands of course | 02:25 |
| Beldar | jay_, If you use apt-get to install a desktop you might remove later copy paste those install packages to a text doc for a removal list. | 02:26 |
| jay_ | usr13, uninstalling doesn't get ride of all the extra K programs it installs | 02:26 |
| usr13 | Roey: Oh ok. Sorry... | 02:26 |
| === mint is now known as epurasha | ||
| Roey | heh | 02:26 |
| usr13 | Roey: Well, does it give an error message? | 02:26 |
| jay_ | Beldar, i don't know how to use apt yet | 02:26 |
| jay_ | i do everything through the software centre | 02:26 |
| Roey | not that I see, usr13 | 02:26 |
| Roey | it doesn't even respond to ctrl-c | 02:27 |
| Roey | I have to ctrl-z and kill %1 | 02:27 |
| usr13 | Roey: Does it show progress on playing the files? | 02:27 |
| Roey | usr13: it does not | 02:27 |
| jay_ | so i'm not sure what you mean by copy and paste those install packages. i dunno what the packages look like to recognize them | 02:27 |
| Roey | usr13: it just sits at 00 | 02:27 |
| usr13 | Roey: What does it do? (Can you pastebin what you see there in the terminal?) | 02:27 |
| usr13 | !paste| Roey | 02:28 |
| ubottu | Roey: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 02:28 |
| Roey | it shows me the sox play command. I'll paste it | 02:28 |
| usr13 | Roey: Ok | 02:28 |
| Beldar | jay_, Fairly straight forward apt-get install for install apt-get remove for remove apt-get purge for purging, purging takes configs out. all these with a sudo. This is what you would have used here | 02:28 |
| Bashing-om | jay_: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html#_debian_package_management_prerequisites , debian, completely applies to ubunt package management system. | 02:28 |
| jay_ | Beldar, the problem with the software centre is that it doesn't uninstall all of the items it installed. so i need to learn apt but don't know it yet | 02:28 |
| usr13 | jay_: Did you see what Jordan_U said? | 02:29 |
| Beldar | !apt-get | jay_ | 02:29 |
| ubottu | jay_: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) | 02:29 |
| Roey | usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7745031/ | 02:29 |
| jay_ | yes. Jordan_U gave me the answer i was looking for | 02:29 |
| usr13 | jay_: "apt-get autoremove removes all pacakges that were automatically installed as a dependency of a package that has since been removed" | 02:29 |
| gartral | SuperBawlz: you still here? | 02:30 |
| jay_ | do i have to use sudo in from of that command Jordan_U ? | 02:31 |
| === HPZ is now known as HPZ1 | ||
| SuperBawlz | Ok, I got postfix set up but I think its messed up. I emailed it from my gmail account and I see where it looks like it received it, the folder exists for the user under /var/mail but I have no messages and the size of the mailbox is 0 | 02:31 |
| usr13 | Roey: alsamixer | 02:32 |
| holstein | jay_: generally, you'll be aware if you need sudo or not. permissions error | 02:32 |
| usr13 | Roey: (un-mute what is muted and / or turn up what is turned down.) | 02:32 |
| jay_ | """"""Full GNOME Desktop Environment, with extra components"""""" <--- that's the name of the program i'm installing from ubuntu software manager. what would be the apt command to uninstall it? | 02:32 |
| gartral | SuperBawlz: hmm.. you find the totorial? | 02:33 |
| holstein | jay_: i suggest trying live CD's or a VM. an installation in virtualbox, where you can take a snapshot and install what you like and easily revert to the snapshot | 02:33 |
| jay_ | holstein, that was way over my head | 02:33 |
| holstein | jay_: just ask a support question, then.. or, use the #ubuntu-offtopic for chat | 02:34 |
| jay_ | i don't know anything about virtual machines or virtual box or snapshots and whatnot | 02:34 |
| Roey | usr13: I just did | 02:34 |
| Roey | still no sound | 02:34 |
| Roey | and neither in headphones nor spdif output. | 02:34 |

| holstein | jay_: you would have had to have used the live CD, however.. which was my first suggestion | 02:34 |
| usr13 | Roey: Is this a laptop or desktop we are working on? | 02:34 |
| Roey | desktop | 02:34 |
| holstein | !virtualbox | 02:34 |
| ubottu | Virtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 02:34 |
| Jordan_U | jay_: The package name is "gnome". | 02:34 |
| usr13 | Roey: Are the speakers plugged into correct port? | 02:35 |
| jay_ | how did you find that out Jordan_U ? how can i find out package names from ubuntu software centre? | 02:35 |
| moghingold | Hi all, I'm having a problem where I have to manually reassemble my mdadm array after each boot cycle. can anyone help me diagnose why it isn't assembling automatically? | 02:35 |
| holstein | jay_: you can search with the search function.. or use synaptic, or the terminal.. "apt-cache search gnome".. or, you can do a package search on the internet | 02:35 |
| ulkesh | I have a ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad on my Samsung Series 9 ultrabook...I'm running Ubuntu 14.04...it works pretty well except that I want to disable the right side of the touchpad such that it will no longer right click. I want to keep two-finger touch to right click (and of course one finger left click and two finger scroll)...how would I go about disabling the right click on the right side of the touchpad? | 02:36 |
| Jordan_U | jay_: I did a google search for "GNOME Extra components". It's also possible to use "apt-cache search", or search http://packages.ubuntu.com. I'm sure that Software Center also displays the package name somewhere, but I don't ever use it so I can't help you there. | 02:36 |
| jay_ | wait a minute. i see the word gnome under the main title. is that how they're all organized in the software centre? | 02:37 |
| jay_ | i think that's how they do it Jordan_U | 02:37 |
| holstein | jay_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter | 02:38 |
| SuperBawlz | fixed it | 02:38 |
| neldogz | So i setup a share on my Ubuntu 14.04 desktop.. and from another ubuntu 14.04 machine I am simply trying to map that share.. Every time i try I am prompted to enter a user name domain and password.. What do i enter for domain if i dont have a traditional domain setup? all systems are simply .local | 02:39 |
| usr13 | neldogz: I just use nfs | 02:40 |
| Jordan_U | jay_: So if you run "sudo apt-get remove gnome" then "sudo apt-get autoremove" it will remove all of the components you installed as part of installing KDE and gnome *but* it might also install other components that are similarly "orphaned", so if you're worried about losing an app you like accidentally you should check the list carefully (though, it will be *very* long). | 02:40 |
| jay_ | Jordan_U, apt-cache search worked perfectly. then i used the find feature and found it quickly! | 02:40 |
| neldogz | usr13.. I am trying to follow how Ubuntu implements it.. | 02:41 |
| jay_ | check what list carefully Jordan_U ? | 02:41 |
| fdfdjdjdjdj | guys, on lubuntu 14.04 i'm finding that the graphics card is not properly set up because the whole screen and text is slightly unclear, how do i sharpen it? | 02:41 |
| holstein | jay_: go ahead and check *all* lists carefullly | 02:41 |
| neldogz | I just right clicked on the folder and selected local network share | 02:41 |
| neldogz | But cannot map to it for the life of me | 02:41 |
| usr13 | fdfdjdjdjdj: xrandr | 02:42 |
| Jordan_U | jay_: The list of packages that "sudo apt-get autoremove" will give you when it prompts you to confirm that you really want to remove all of those packages. | 02:42 |
| moghingold | Hi all, I'm having a problem where I have to manually reassemble my mdadm array after each boot cycle. can anyone help me diagnose why it isn't assembling automatically? | 02:42 |
| usr13 | neldogz: I've never figured out what "map" means in conversations about network shares. | 02:43 |
| jay_ | oh ok i didn't know it'd prompt me first. if i see a program i want in the list, then what do i do to exclude it? | 02:43 |
| neldogz | usr13, basically under Network I am selecting Connect to Server.. the entering smb://machine.local/share | 02:43 |
| fdfdjdjdjdj | usr13: i did xrandr and it already on native resolution and at native refresh rate. | 02:44 |
| neldogz | then i am prompted for a username domain and password.. but none of the credentials work.. I wonder if I am missing something? | 02:44 |
| === cy is now known as Guest78850 | ||
| usr13 | neldogz: I just use nfs | 02:44 |
| Jordan_U | jay_: Cancel and run "sudo apt-get install packagename", since it's already installed, that will mark it as "manually installed", meaning you chose to install it directly rather than it being brought in by something else. | 02:44 |
| usr13 | fdfdjdjdjdj: What kind of monitor is it? | 02:45 |
| neldogz | usr13, why would Ubuntu implement this feature if its fundamentally broken | 02:45 |
| fdfdjdjdjdj | i have two monitors, a 23 inch 1920x1080 monitor, and a 17 inch 1280x1024 monitor, it looks unsharp on both of them. | 02:45 |
| jay_ | ohhhh snap. you're a smart cookie Jordan_U | 02:46 |
| cfhowlett | neldogz ask in #ubuntu-server or in ##linux | 02:46 |
| jay_ | that makes sense to me. :) | 02:46 |
| jay_ | Jordan_U, is there a way to look at a package i'm unsure of to see it's description in terminal? | 02:47 |
| jay_ | that way, i know what it does before i uninstall it? | 02:47 |
| holstein | jay_: yes.. you can read the list, and parse what its going to do | 02:47 |
| jay_ | parse? | 02:48 |
| holstein | jay_: yes.. by reading, | 02:48 |
| jay_ | i realize i could go to synaptic and check the package there, but it'd be easier to check in terminal but a quick command | 02:48 |
| holstein | jay_: "easy" is relative.. | 02:48 |
| Jordan_U | jay_: apt-cache show packagename | 02:49 |
| jay_ | perfect! damn you're good! | 02:50 |
| jay_ | exactly what i wanted to know man | 02:50 |

| xjkx | Bashing-om: Wow, they're not supporting 13.10 ? Before releasing 14.10 :o | 03:39 |
| holstein | 14.10 is not an LTS, though.. if that means anything | 03:39 |

| holstein | xjkx: i mean, if you want to stay current, use the current versions.. if you want long term support, use the long term support | 03:41 |
| cfhowlett | xjkx this ^^^ | 03:41 |
| xjkx | I kinda like being current, but its been said 13.10 is out of date, and 14.04 is the newer, so, I kinda dont have a choice if I need to install now, seems the smart way to go is 14.04 | 03:42 |

| histo | xjkx: 13.10 isn't eol yet | 03:42 |
| cfhowlett | !13.10 | 03:42 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) was the 19th release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.10 - Read the release notes at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucySalamander/ReleaseNotes | 03:42 |
| holstein | xjkx: this is all open, and you *always* have a choice.. you can support 13.10 and/or use it as long as you please | 03:43 |
| histo | xjkx: but will be soon | 03:43 |
| holstein | xjkx: 14.04 will be support for *5* years | 03:43 |
| xjkx | Hmm | 03:43 |
| xjkx | Very helpful, thank you all | 03:43 |
| histo | xjkx: every even .04 is long term. like 10.04 12.04 14.04 etc... | 03:43 |
| holstein | xjkx: 13.10 is not going to be deleted from your machine.. its just not getting updates automatically sent from volunteers or paid persons from ubuntu | 03:44 |
| histo | !releases | xjkx | 03:44 |
| ubottu | xjkx: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 03:44 |
| xjkx | histo: they went from 12.04 to 14.04 right ? I dont remember 13.04 | 03:44 |
| histo | xjkx: the first number is the year 14 << the second number is the month .04<<< April | 03:45 |
| xjkx | Hmm | 03:45 |
| histo | xjkx: xjkx every six months there is a relase. | 03:45 |
| histo | xjkx: you can upgrade from Long Term Support to Long Term Support like 12.04 > 14.04 every other release in between is a point release and has to be ugpraded in order 12.10 > 13.04 > 13.10 > 14.04 | 03:46 |

| lastarms | gr33n7007h: sorry, I left to do something | 03:47 |
| lastarms | gr33n7007h: I had 4 partition. 2 shows up and the other 2 does not. exfat format | 03:48 |
| lastarms | gr33n7007h: and it should still be MBR as it shows up in fdisk | 03:48 |
| gr33n7007h | lastarms, what does lsblk show? | 03:48 |
| histo | lastarms: sudo parted -l /dev/of/disk | 03:49 |
| gr33n7007h | lastarms, ls /dev/saX* | 03:49 |
| gr33n7007h | lastarms, ls /dev/sdX* | 03:50 |
| lastarms | gr33n7007h: lsblk shows the partition just fine. I can mount it via the mount command | 03:50 |
| gr33n7007h | lastarms, but they don't show up using blkid? | 03:50 |
| lastarms | gr33n7007h: nope | 03:50 |
| gr33n7007h | lastarms, hmm... strange | 03:51 |
| lastarms | histo: that will take me to parted no? what is that command supposed to show? | 03:51 |
| lastarms | histo: Backtrace has 0 calls on stack: | 03:51 |
| gr33n7007h | lastarms, basically the same as fdisk -l | 03:51 |
| lastarms | I have a few hdd attached and they showed up fine. And 2 partition shows up fine, just the last 2 does not have uuid.... is that possible? | 03:52 |
| CharlesIC | hello | 03:53 |
| CharlesIC | anyone around? | 03:53 |
| histo | lastarms: it will print out the partitions | 03:53 |
| atheist | yeah | 03:53 |
| cfhowlett | CharlesIC only a few thousands | 03:53 |
| cfhowlett | !ask|CharlesIC | 03:53 |
| ubottu | CharlesIC: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 03:53 |
| histo | lastarms: are you going to need to recover the missing partitions? | 03:54 |
| CharlesIC | i want /foobar/media/video accessible to webserver.webserver | 03:54 |
| CharlesIC | but not /foobar/media/ | 03:54 |
| lastarms | histo: nope, it's just that the HDD likes to mix about. hence instead of /dev/sda in fstab, uuid will be more reliable no? | 03:54 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: .htaccess | 03:55 |
| CharlesIC | hmm | 03:55 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, well, /foobar is a dir i share through sshfs generally | 03:55 |
| CharlesIC | mounting it remotely, etc | 03:55 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: hence .htaccess | 03:55 |
| nabil | hey guys | 03:56 |
| nabil | where can i get help about linux | 03:56 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, ok, so i can leave /foobar and /foobar/media 770? | 03:57 |
| nabil | grub bootloader more specifically | 03:57 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: yeap | 03:57 |
| holstein | nabil: maybe a linux channel.. you can ask for support for ubuntu here | 03:57 |
| lastarms | nabil: grub channel? | 03:57 |
| holstein | !grub | nabil | 03:57 |
| ubottu | nabil: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 03:57 |
| mjessome | Hello; Just giving Ubuntu a try, but I want to stick with a tiling wm. Everything works great with unity (function keys for volume, etc, etc) but when I launch just dwm, nothing works -- not even audio itself. I've been looking into the xdg autostart, but it seems like things such as indicator-power-service require Unity in order to run. Is there any way around this? | 03:57 |
| nabil | no I actually installed mint 17 alongside windows 7 | 03:58 |
| holstein | !mint | 03:58 |
| ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 03:58 |
| nabil | and id like a better boot | 03:58 |
| nabil | something that looks nicer | 03:58 |
| holstein | nabil: you are free to read the ubuntu grub wiki, though.. | 03:58 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, i dont need to +x /foobar and /foobar/media? | 03:58 |
| nabil | holstein: where can i find that | 03:59 |
| holstein | nabil: i say, think about how much you *actually* see that screen, and what is happening there.. things are just working fine | 03:59 |
| holstein | nabil: i linked the grub documentation above ^^ | 03:59 |
| nabil | holstein: ya thats true | 04:00 |
| nabil | holstein: i tried to do it a while ago and ended up ruining my whole pc lol | 04:01 |
| x9 | there are two realtek wireless chips on my computer right now, one of them isn't connecting to the internet and the other just drops randomly | 04:01 |
| holstein | nabil: correct. thats why i say, leave it be.. and enjoy the functionality.. | 04:02 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, can you help me a little more? | 04:03 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: I don't remember the limitation for sshfs | 04:03 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, it's not related to that | 04:04 |
| holstein | mjessome: consider something in the middle, like lxde | 04:04 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: just make sure that your intended folder is accessible from the web, and then use .htaccess to limit the access of the previous folder | 04:04 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, well, im trying to avoid anything more than 770 for /foobar and /foobar/media | 04:05 |
| CharlesIC | so at the moment, the web can't access /foobar/ or /foobar/media | 04:05 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: +x is for executable. I don't think you need +x for them, unless you have a script that needs to be run by php | 04:05 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, i know, i just kept having some guy arguing with me about that in another chan | 04:05 |
| CharlesIC | he didn't like that i didn't want to do it that way | 04:05 |
| lastarms | ? | 04:05 |
| CharlesIC | it's for plexmediaserver | 04:06 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: try using 777 and see i it's accessable from the web | 04:06 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: after that, try back to 770 | 04:06 |
| CharlesIC | lastarms, all 3 dirs? | 04:06 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: if 777 works, and 770 doesn't that means the problem is in the ownershio | 04:06 |
| lastarms | ownership* | 04:06 |
| lastarms | CharlesIC: yup | 04:06 |
| mjessome | holstein: It's not that I don't know how to use dwm, I have set it up on many machines before. My question is more about whether or not I am able to have these services that are started and used with Unity used in dwm, or do these specific tools (indicator-power-service, etc) require Unity to be running in order to work? | 04:07 |
| histo | Why not ls -l and find out what the perms are now and just fix them, rather than just throwing perms at it and guessing? | 04:07 |
| lastarms | histo: sshfs is a little tricky sometime... is what I think. | 04:07 |
| histo | mjessome: yes, no | 04:07 |
| histo | lastarms: not really | 04:08 |
| holstein | mjessome: you can start what you need.. i built it up like that in 12.04 using openbox.. and started everything.. spent a few days.. and hours straight tracking it all down, and researching and man paging.. now? i just use lxde | 04:08 |
| histo | lastarms: does nobody:nobody here | 04:08 |
| CharlesIC | yeah, 777 did it | 04:08 |
| CharlesIC | now i can see everything | 04:08 |
| CharlesIC | from my web app | 04:09 |
| CharlesIC | the issue is that i don't want anyone except root.foobar to have access to /foobar and /foobar/media | 04:09 |
| mjessome | alright, thanks holstein, histo. I'll keep at it, then :) At least I know I'm not trying to do the impossible. | 04:09 |
| histo | CharlesIC: Via a web browser??? What are you trying to do now? | 04:10 |
| histo | mjessome: it's not hard. | 04:10 |
| CharlesIC | histo, im using plexmedia server | 04:10 |
| CharlesIC | i have /foobar/media/video that i store my shared videos in, but they are only shared with foobar.share | 04:10 |
| CharlesIC | well, /foobar and /foobar/media | 04:10 |
| CharlesIC | is 770 for foobar.share | 04:10 |
| CharlesIC | err | 04:10 |
| CharlesIC | root.foobar | 04:11 |
| histo | mjessome: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dwm | 04:11 |
| CharlesIC | but i want /foobar/media/video accessible to webserver.webserver | 04:11 |
| CharlesIC | if i chmod 777 /foobar and /foobar/media, then it becomes accessible to webserver.webserver | 04:11 |

| x9 | ~~connecting~~ | 04:13 |
| holstein | mjessome: i found the arch wiki's that histo suggested helpful, as well as copying from other distros that were using what i was using.. if you can find one close | 04:13 |
| x9 | so I have this TP-link USB wireless adapter... it randomly freezes and drops the Internet connection | 04:14 |
| x9 | someone please help... it's getting to the point where I want to smash it with a hammer | 04:14 |
| histo | CharlesIC: what? | 04:15 |
| histo | CharlesIC: that would let root have the user permissions on videos and the group webserver have permissions | 04:15 |
| CharlesIC | histo, im trying to keep .webserver from any perms for /foobar and /foobar/media, though | 04:15 |
| CharlesIC | and ONLY have access to that subdir | 04:15 |
| histo | CharlesIC: Yeah I understand | 04:16 |
| histo | CharlesIC: we didn't change foobar or media just videos | 04:16 |
| CharlesIC | right now, i just set /foobar and /foobar/media back to 770 root.foobar | 04:16 |
| histo | k | 04:16 |
| CharlesIC | and after i did that, webserver lost access again | 04:16 |
| histo | CharlesIC: no chown root:webserver /foobar/media/video | 04:16 |
| histo | CharlesIC: now not no | 04:17 |
| CharlesIC | no go | 04:18 |
| CharlesIC | only when i change /foobar and /foobar/media to 771 will it works | 04:19 |
| CharlesIC | work | 04:19 |
| histo | CharlesIC: yes it will | 04:20 |
| CharlesIC | ? | 04:20 |
| histo | CharlesIC: what's wrong with that? | 04:21 |
| CharlesIC | i didn't want webserver having any access to /foobar or /foobar/media | 04:22 |
| histo | CharlesIC: it doesn't | 04:22 |
| CharlesIC | it has +x | 04:22 |
| histo | CharlesIC: to enter the directory that's it | 04:22 |
| CharlesIC | doesn't it provide execute perms? | 04:23 |
| CharlesIC | say if there were a binary in /foobar? | 04:23 |
| histo | CharlesIC: yeah directories need execute perms to go into them | 04:23 |
| CharlesIC | k | 04:23 |
| histo | CharlesIC: why would the binary be 771? | 04:23 |
| CharlesIC | i just meant to keep users from any access | 04:24 |
| histo | CharlesIC: test as a 'user' and see then | 04:25 |
| CharlesIC | ok thats odd | 04:26 |
| histo | CharlesIC: x is the minimum permissions to access a directory | 04:26 |
| CharlesIC | i now have 771 for /foobar and /foobar/media | 04:26 |
| histo | CharlesIC: you need that to get to the sub directory | 04:26 |
| CharlesIC | oh i see | 04:27 |
| CharlesIC | i have to do 775 for video | 04:27 |
| CharlesIC | if i want everyone having read access | 04:27 |
| histo | CharlesIC: not if webserver is the group owner of video | 04:27 |
| CharlesIC | right | 04:27 |
| histo | CharlesIC: define everyone ? | 04:27 |
| histo | CharlesIC: if you just want everyone to have read 444 | 04:28 |
| CharlesIC | well, i honestly want root.sharegroup to have ownership | 04:28 |
| CharlesIC | and 77? | 04:28 |
| histo | CharlesIC: 774 | 04:28 |
| CharlesIC | not 5? | 04:29 |
| CharlesIC | i dont need x? | 04:29 |
| histo | CharlesIC: 774 is user will have read write execute; group will have read, write, execute; others will have read only | 04:29 |
| CharlesIC | k | 04:29 |
| histo | CharlesIC: if you are talking about the video directory then yes they still need x | 04:30 |
| histo | CharlesIC: do 775 and all files inside can be 774 | 04:30 |

| ChrisPartridge | I've updated an 12.04 lts box using upgrade and dist-upgrade (went from 12.04.3 to 12.04.4), notice i have several kernel versions installed above the current active one, yet they are not being used, should it be using the latest? | 05:19 |
| Beldar | ChrisPartridge, Have you rebooted? Do you have more than one linux OS on the computer? | 05:20 |
| louisdk | I wonder why my Ubuntu 64-bit installation (upgraded from 10.04 -> 12.04 -> 14.04) feels so slow. It runs on a 7200 rpm hdd, however Arch with Unity on a 5400 rpm hdd (and same hardware) is way more snappy. Some tips for cleaning/speeding up Ubuntu? | 05:21 |
| ChrisPartridge | Beldar: yep, rebooted twice since upgrading - and no, only the single linux install | 05:22 |
| chreuben | louisdk: Turn off the fancy graphics in unity – e.g. , Animations, Fading Windows, Window Decoration, Blur Windows, water Effect, Wobbly Windows | 05:22 |
| Beldar | louisdk, In general ubuntu is set up to run as fast as the DE allows, arch is a lighter install> same desktops? | 05:22 |
| Beldar | ChrisPartridge, Have you modified the grub menu? try running sudo update-grub. | 05:23 |

| louisdk | chreuben: not using anything but default compiz effects. | 05:26 |
| ChrisPartridge | Beldar: Hm strange, update-grub only picks up current running kernel (only one that appears in /boot) - however dpkg shows more installed, here's some ouput: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/fb9335a731e2de31b158 | 05:27 |
| Like2HlpU-Laptop | i think you can easily put on the desktop later so I will have a more compact install | 05:28 |
| Beldar | louisdk, The ubuntu a vanilla install in general? | 05:28 |
| Beldar | ChrisPartridge, This a full install or a iso on a usb? | 05:29 |
| louisdk | Beldar, Almost. Well having things like teamviewer deamon, skype etc. running but that does not seems to take that much either memory or cpu. I could be that this is just an old install. | 05:30 |
| Guest8440 | can anyone tell me how to change the gtk theme, and the window theme individually in Ubuntu 14.04 running Unity | 05:30 |
| Beldar | ChrisPartridge, Are you running the update-grub in a rooted terminal with sudo? | 05:30 |
| Alpha-Omega | How would I go about installing virtualbox without the interface? | 05:30 |

| Alpha-Omega | Jordan_U: The machines will be launched with scripts. | 05:34 |
| Beldar | ChrisPartridge, Your update-grub is in root and you are using sudo, can you explain? | 05:34 |

| ChrisPartridge | Ben64: my apologies, see here: http://pastebin.com/kSGbpPnA | 05:45 |
| punkgeek | so what should i do? :-? | 05:45 |
| kans | Can you guys recommend a good PXE setup tutorial link or something? | 05:45 |
| Ben64 | ChrisPartridge: as i thought. see all the "rc" at the beginning? that means they aren't installed, but have residual config. why that is though, no idea | 05:45 |
| Ben64 | punkgeek: use sudo whenever you need root for something, and forget about having a root password or sending it anywhere | 05:46 |
| somsip | punkgeek: get a better solution. what are you trying to achieve? | 05:46 |

| Ben64 | ChrisPartridge: i'd recommend installing "linux-generic-lts-trusty" "linux-headers-generic-lts-trusty" and "linux-image-generic-lts-trusty" that will bring you to the latest kernel available for 12.04, which is from 14.04 | 05:49 |

| === benonsoftware is now known as Guest69253 | ||
| ChrisPartridge | Ben64: we have plan to move to 14.04 lts by end of year anywho (infrastructure change), I think cause of issue in this case was order of events (and bad script), update ran -> maintence cron job (cleaned unused kernels) -> reboot, so it did not have chance to move to new kernel before maintence cleaned it up | 05:58 |
| roasted | Does anybody know if it's possible to save your session in 14.04 so when you log in next time everything is back? | 05:59 |
| ChrisPartridge | Ben64: Beldar: thanks for your help, much appreciated | 06:03 |

| stangeland | Hello, i need to install python 3.4 from source. I have downloaded and built using configure and make. when i then run checkinstall i get this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7746106/ I cannot install because already installed.

| reyt | I'm having trouble with tplink TL-WN821nv3 usb wifi dongle and qbittorrent. I'm on 14.04. Randomly my usb wifi dongle will, for lack of a better word, "hang". The flashing LED on it goes stable, network manager reports that I'm still connected to the internet, but I am unable to load webpages. Oddly however is that whenever this occurs, qbittorrent freezes as well and refuses to respond to any clicks or input. As soon as I unplug my dongle, qbittorrent immedi | 09:05 |
| reyt | ately unfreezes like there never was a problem. Upon replugging the dongle it connects flawlessly to my network. I noticed this issue started just a little bit after i installed qbittorent, I'm using qbittorent 3.1.9.2 direct from the PPA, I tried downgrading to 3.1.8 from the official repo but to no avail. Also when my dongle is in this hanged state, and attempt at ping or inputting command iwconfig will result in the output never coming, seemingly taking fo | 09:05 |

| sarkie | hi, my friend has this laptop. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201307-13932/ when installing via boot from live usb, everything works, once installed, wifi, touchpad don't work, 12.04 and 14.04 do the same, he has tried installing packages with the install and still the same, anyone any ideas? | 09:10 |
| janihhh | reyt: ok, then probably not a weak signal problem | 09:11 |

| cfhowlett | longshot question here: I just learned why Dropbox won't connect; Great Firewall of China now blocks it. Other than VP, does anyone have a working solution? | 09:18 |
| janihhh | sarkie: did you try to install any drivers for wifi or touchpad? maybe they need some restricted drivers etc. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/ | 09:19 |
| DJones | cfhowlett: This is old & quite possibly out of date, but maybe it will resolve that http://eastasiastudent.net/china/dropbox-no-vpn | 09:19 |
| cfhowlett | DJones I'll take a look. thanks. | 09:20 |
| reyt | somsip: I've been doing just that for quite a while, I can confirm that the problem doesn't occur if qbittorrent isn't running. I'm not sure what logs to check, but if you direct me I'm sure I can provide the necessary information. | 09:21 |
| DJones | cfhowlett: It might not be that good a page, have a read of this which also refers to that page https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?59148-Dropbox-in-China | 09:21 |
| somsip | reyt: dmesg would be the first suggestion. Can you use a different torrent program as a work-around? | 09:21 |
| cfhowlett | DJones will do. Strangely, DB worked for YEARS but suddenly went dark last month. Quite irritating, that is. | 09:22 |
| DJones | cfhowlett: From what I was just reading, seems like it depends on which side of the bed somebody gets out of bed on, sometimes it gets blocked, others its allowed | 09:23 |
| sarkie | janihhh: but they work during install, so trying to figure out why they work on live install, but not actual install? | 09:23 |
| cfhowlett | DJones yeah. there is a workaround for FB that intermittently works, but I always "ass - u - me -d" that my Dropbox was reliable. mea culpa | 09:23 |
| janihhh | sarkie: yes that is weird, but maybe worth to check that the drivers are enabled also on actual install | 09:24 |
| reyt | somsip: here is my dmesg http://pastebin.com/8QJrw636 , you want me to test whether the problem occurs for another client? Or switch clients in the long run. I'd rather not switch from qbit because of it's simple RSS functionality. I tried Deluge, but couldn't really make sense of it for the purposes of RSS. | 09:25 |

| histo | ridders24: what is pv? | 10:00 |
| ridders24 | pipe viewer | 10:00 |
| ridders24 | its so I can see the progress of the copy | 10:00 |
| histo | ridders24: ahh well try without pv | 10:01 |
| ridders24 | histo, well its doing something haha, I know just can't see its progress | 10:02 |
| histo | ridders24: you can find the pid of the dd and send a kill -USR1 to-that-pid to get status | 10:02 |
| ridders24 | ah ok cheers | 10:03 |
| dfb | hey is sbuild still the standard way for .deb packinging? | 10:03 |
| ridders24 | histo, just a quick one before I go, earlier when I was trying to do dd, I managed to start the progress but the output file as sda1 which is my external hdd, I cancelled the process but term did say 6gb had been copied. But i cant see that 6gb of data anywhere | 10:04 |
| ridders24 | just concerned it may cause a problem when i play the hdd back into windows | 10:05 |
| histo | ridders24: where was your out file specified? | 10:05 |
| ridders24 | dev/sda1 | 10:05 |
| histo | ridders24: yeah you hosed the first part of the sda1 file system | 10:05 |
| ridders24 | meaning? | 10:06 |
| Ben64 | you overwrote the first 6GB of sda1 | 10:06 |
| histo | ridders24: the first 6GB of data on that disk is gone and you will probably have to repair the file system or reformat the drive | 10:06 |
| ridders24 | :s | 10:06 |
| ridders24 | i can still see all the data and file structure in ubuntu though | 10:06 |
| Ben64 | and this is why you should be careful with sudo | 10:06 |
| Guido1 | histo: in the list of available drivers if i want to install it via the printer manager. yes and it isn | 10:06 |
| Guido1 | histo: itś an broother DCP 110C (als working is the newer brother DCP 115C) | 10:07 |
| histo | Guido1: what printer manager? | 10:07 |
| Guido1 | histo: i mean this tool to manage and add printer which comes with ubuntu | 10:08 |
| ridders24 | if Ive damaged the first 6gb of sda1, why is the external hdd still accessable in ubuntu? | 10:08 |
| Ben64 | ridders24: well you wrote to a mounted partition, i wouldn't be surprised if everything starts exploding | 10:08 |
| histo | ridders24: probably hasn't sync'd yet | 10:09 |
| Guido1 | histo: and itś not in the data base. i have to installl it manualy | 10:09 |
| histo | ridders24: are you sure you went ot sda1 ?? check your .bash_history | 10:09 |
| ridders24 | oh here we go, cant access drive | 10:09 |
| histo | ridders24: yeah hosed | 10:09 |
| histo | ridders24: be carefull with dd. How much stuff was on the drive? | 10:10 |
| ridders24 | everything | 10:10 |
| ridders24 | was my backup drive | 10:10 |
| histo | ridders24: how much space did 'everything' take up prior to you overwriting it? | 10:10 |
| ridders24 | hard to say, but it was a 1TB drive and I hadnt filled it | 10:11 |
| histo | ridders24: 6GB is quite a bit of 'everything' though. You may be able to recover anything after the first 6GB | 10:11 |
| histo | s/anything/some things/ | 10:11 |
| ridders24 | ok, how do I get the drive viewable again? | 10:12 |
| histo | ridders24: do you want to try and recover the data? | 10:13 |
| ridders24 | yeah lol | 10:13 |

| sveta | jass: lts usually is more stable and is released every 2 years (10.04, 12.04, 14.04). there are releases every 6 months inbetween which are also stable, but they evolve into something more comprehensive and tested by the time of a next lts release. -- my opinion after some ~5 years of looking at it, but it may or may not be accurate | 11:37 |

| iceroot | jass: amd64 is not related to vga cards and not related to amd cpus, its just the name of a specific 64bit technik which is used by most desktop cpus now | 11:39 |
| sveta | *I don't think they're interchangeable | 11:39 |
| Honvai | Need help. skyrim not work | 11:39 |

| Mithrildar | Good afternoon | 11:42 |
| johnflux | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/13.10/release/ | 11:42 |
| johnflux | For a 64bit intel system, do I want "amd64" ? | 11:43 |
| Mithrildar | I used Boot-Repair to get my computer to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows. It works fine at the moment (I get a boot window in which I can select Ubuntu or the Windows boot something), but during the execution of Boot-Repair it did give me an error message with a paste2 link. Anything that I should do or is everything fine? | 11:44 |
| sveta | johnflux: hi. | 11:45 |
| johnflux | sveta: hey | 11:45 |
| sveta | johnflux: with the tiny understanding I have, I perceive intel and amd as mutually exclusive. | 11:46 |
| johnflux | I can't get 14.04 working - so I'm going to try 13.10 and see if it's any better | 11:46 |
| Mithrildar | So should I post the paste2 link with the log of Boot-Repair or does it contain sensitive information> | 11:46 |
| sveta | johnflux: does it give you any error message? | 11:46 |
| dw1 | often one tap on my touchpad starts dragging something when i dont want it to. what should i adjust? | 11:48 |
| sveta | johnflux: I would personally use the i386 image, but I wouldn't mind hearing out someone else's opinion in here. if my understanding of the meaning of these things is correct, then that distro doesn't support intel64bit or amd32bit, which I would find crazy; suggests I probably misunderstand something. -- there is #kubuntu channel too. | 11:48 |
| sveta | johnflux: if you find it out from there, please also share here. | 11:48 |
| johnflux | sveta: It crashes when I start X. I don't know if it's related, but in dmesg I see a crash | 11:48 |
| sveta | pastebin it? | 11:48 |
| johnflux | I can't really copy and paste.. | 11:48 |

| jass | do we have utorrent in ubuntu? | 11:49 |
| johnflux | sveta: also google says that yes, amd64 is fine on 64bit intel systems :) | 11:49 |
| sveta | histo: they told me the key is not at ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg, but somewhere else, from the specific maintainer of that software. It looks like I'm getting some sort of hints at their channel | 11:49 |
| johnflux | jass: I use transmission which I like ( doesn't answer your question directly sorry) | 11:49 |
| sveta | johnflux: then go with it and please don't forget to yell at me when it works | 11:50 |
| jass | okay | 11:50 |
| Honvai | how to install ubuntu 14.04 iso to USB virtual cd? | 11:52 |
| sveta | jass: mu torrent appears to be not open-source and they didn't package it, but you can download a package from their website (you will have to update it manually as the software center will not know about it) | 11:52 |
| === jottr_ is now known as jottr | ||
| sveta | *didn't package it for ubuntu | 11:52 |

| Honvai | how to install ubuntu 14.04 iso to USB virtual cd in ubuntu? | 11:54 |
| sveta | jass: tramsmission and qbittorrent are couple alternatives (unless there's a feature they're missing, they may be a bit less of a pain to maintain as the software center will update everything out there for you; otherwise you'd have to click 'help -> check for updates' or download it manually when you like) | 11:54 |
| sveta | Honvai: hi! how virtual is the cd? | 11:54 |
| Honvai | a lot | 11:55 |
| sveta | jass: which panel? (I'm presuming you mean unity, which I only tried about a year ago) | 11:55 |
| Mithrildar | I used Boot-Repair to get my computer to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows. It works fine at the moment (I get a boot window in which I can select Ubuntu or the Windows boot something), but during the execution of Boot-Repair it did give me an error message with a paste2 link.

| jass | sveta: but I heared that other ones are bit slow in comparision to others | 11:55 |
| jass | sveta: that side dockpanel I guess | 11:55 |
| sveta | Honvai: I mean: I haven't ever worked with virtual cds so I might need you to rephrase it or mention how you made it. I _really_ hope someone else picks up this question as it's a blank area to me | 11:55 |

| shwaiil | Q: I'm running out of space and I'd like to resize my partitions. I've got unallocated space. I can resize the partition preceding the unallocated parttition but not any other apparently. Can some one provide me some hints or advice on this please ? Here's a screenshot http://img42.com/rvzLd Thanks for your tim! | 11:57 |
| sveta | jass: I don't see how torrent client could be faster -- would be motivated to test, personally, as I thought it is the internet! is the side dock panel filled with big monstrous icons/launchers of applications? | 11:57 |
| bcvery | Honvai, so you're using Ubuntu, and you want to create a bootable USB using the Ubuntu 14.04 .iso? Or have I misunderstood | 11:58 |
| jass | sveta:yes, that one | 11:58 |
| johnflux | \o/ | 11:58 |
| sveta | shwaiil: I would use gparted, but make a backup of both partitions first (I think this is the case when the resize is harder) | 11:58 |
| johnflux | sveta: I disabled the intel graphics card | 11:58 |
| johnflux | sveta: in the bios | 11:58 |
| johnflux | sveta: now it works | 11:58 |
| Honvai | yes i want make bootable USB | 11:58 |

| sveta | bcvery: thank you so much | 11:59 |
| bcvery | !unetbootin | Honvai, try this | 11:59 |

| shwaiil | sveta: PinFloyd thanks for looking. I found the UUID that helped. I'm resizing paritions, so I'd like to unsure which one I'm resizing. In my case I can only increase one partition from the unallocated space. Is there a way to increase the ones further left ? Some how ? Thanks http://img42.com/rvzLd | 12:11 |

| * sveta doesn't like "fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":1"", but if it's not recent, it's completely irrelevant. | 12:59 | |
| MetalqueerNope | finally a channel without metaleer in it | 13:00 |
| sveta | MetalqueerNope: we don't know who this is. It is a support/discussion room. | 13:00 |
| Caroga | lols | 13:00 |
| sveta | hopefully you're not going to tell us how "lovely" metaleer is now. thanks :) | 13:00 |
| MetalqueerNope | i am :) | 13:00 |
| sveta | no, you're not :) | 13:00 |
| MetalqueerNope | oh i see | 13:01 |
| MetalqueerNope | you're staffer | 13:01 |
| alphydan | sveta: thank you for the suggestion, but there are only 2 files: .xsession-errors.old and .xsession-errors (which I put on the pastebin) | 13:01 |
| sveta | alphydan: I see. could you please paste the one which is not old separately? | 13:01 |
| alphydan | (the one which is not old is http://paste.ubuntu.com/7747001/ ) | 13:02 |
| sveta | MetalqueerNope: today, I'm "breaking things in this {directory,vm}", so it's a bit different. and I end up reading other things in here a bit :) | 13:02 |
| sveta | alphydan: does the desktop show up for a small time, or does it instantly take you back to the login screen? | 13:03 |
| alphydan | sveta: I don't see the desktop at all. when I do "lightdm restart" and try to login, it goes back to login screen almost immediately | 13:04 |
| alphydan | (the guest user however can login fine) | 13:05 |
| Glorfindel | what is the website for pasting images? | 13:06 |
| sveta | alphydan: I see. | 13:06 |
| DJones | !imagebin | Glorfindel | 13:06 |
| ubottu | Glorfindel: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. | 13:06 |
| sveta | Glorfindel: I tend to use www.imgur.com or commons.wikimedia.org, depending on how reusable you expect it to be. | 13:06 |
| alphydan | sveta: should I try to restart, see if the .xsession gets re-written? (would I do it with sudo halt?) | 13:07 |
| sveta | alphydan: in what language is this? I am not following about 60% of what it's saying (a lot of things are trying to start, and then it says "Resource temporarily unavailable" (a thing usually happens to me when there's too many things running), but I have trouble identifying the main problem. -- a language channel might help you, or someone else here. | 13:08 |
| sveta | alphydan: it gets written to the .old one, and a new one gets created. probably during each login anyway -- xsession doesn't know when you rebooted and when you didn't | 13:08 |
| Glorfindel | thanks :) ok, how do I get partitions out from under a differant one in gparted? http://imagebin.org/314986 I want to get all the unalocated space to the bottom ov the view so I can make a bigger partition. Any ideas? | 13:08 |
| alphydan | sveta: yes, sorry, it's spanish. | 13:09 |
| sveta | alphydan: if you could post this to #ubuntu-es while also staying here it could be an interesting thought. tell them that you're also discussing this here. to join, type /join #ubuntu-es | 13:09 |
| alphydan | sveta: thank you. will ask over at #ubuntu-es and report any solution | 13:10 |
| sveta | alphydan: I would probably start with clearing session for that user, if it has session save enabled (so that all the programs re-open after reboot automatically). does it? | 13:10 |
| === soeren is now known as Guest52831 | ||
| k1l | Glorfindel: you need to resize eeach partition to move the unallocated space to the end of the disk | 13:11 |
| alphydan | sveta: how do I "clear session"? (session save should not be enabled. Programs don't re-open after reboot as far as I know) | 13:11 |
| === Caroga is now known as Caroga_afk | ||
| k1l | Glorfindel: start with resize/move sda7to the front of the extended partition sda4. then resize sda8 (swap) to the size you want so you can remove the second swap (sda6) anyway. | 13:13 |
| daviator | hello. my laptop Toshiba Satellite L305 have ubuntu 12.04 and its rebooting randomly or screen becomes white | 13:13 |
| Glorfindel | k1l: I have been just using move/resize option | 13:14 |
| Glorfindel | that is fine though, right? | 13:14 |
| k1l | Glorfindel: which partition do you want to extend? | 13:15 |
| Glorfindel | I want to make a new one that is 100 gig for data recovery | 13:15 |
| Glorfindel | so I'm not extending any | 13:15 |
| sveta | alphydan: there are two distinct concepts. one of the is session, something people can clear to stop any optional programs from opening automatically which they left open when logging out. another concept is "autostart", which is a set of programs considered necessary under any circumstances, such as various applets. -- how to clear or manage either of those depends on the desktop you're using and requires someone who's more experienced | 13:16 |
| sveta | than I to help out, as I've not been using the default desktop and I'm personally out of the loop. sorry. please wait. | 13:16 |
| Glorfindel | I would like to get sda7 sda5 sda8 and sda6 out of the sda 4 extended partition | 13:16 |
| k1l | Glorfindel: you need to "move" the unallocated space to the end while moving the other partitions to close the gap | 13:17 |
| k1l | Glorfindel: that doesnt work | 13:17 |
| alphydan | sveta: ok. thank you for all the advice. learnt a few things this morning! Let me check on the spanish version, see if somebody can interpret the session errors and I'll get back | 13:18 |
| k1l | Glorfindel: you can only have 4 primary partitions. and you already have 3 (the xosl114, the ntfs and the extended (including sda7 sda8 sda5 sda6) | 13:18 |
| Glorfindel | ah, so if I deleted the xosl I could make a new one? I'm not using it anyway | 13:19 |
| k1l | Glorfindel: move sda7 to the beginning of the extended one. | 13:19 |
| sveta | alphydan: their channels is smaller; you'll have no issues staying in both; look forward to hearing about your next things | 13:19 |
| k1l | Glorfindel: there is no need to. ubuntu is fine in the extended | 13:19 |
| sveta | alphydan: good luck :) | 13:19 |
| Glorfindel | k1l I can't move sda7 any further than it is | 13:21 |
| Glorfindel | and I want the unallocated space to be moved, the ubuntu partition is fine | 13:21 |
| Glorfindel | nevermind | 13:21 |
| Glorfindel | I solved it | 13:22 |
| Glorfindel | I just resized the sda4 partition so that all the free space was on the outside :) | 13:22 |
| Glorfindel | thanks for the help :D | 13:22 |
| daviator | hello. my laptop Toshiba Satellite L305 have ubuntu 12.04 and its rebooting randomly or screen becomes white | 13:23 |
| k1l | Glorfindel: i would suggesting to remove the small swap partition. there is no need for that | 13:23 |
| Glorfindel | ok, will do that too | 13:23 |

| alphydan | sveta: I tried again to startx, and saw that xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/user/.Xauthority | 14:04 |
| k1l | dont use startx. | 14:05 |
| k1l | start the lightdm | 14:05 |
| alphydan | k1l: no. lightdm was not showing any messages. so we were trying to troubleshoot by using startx on purpose | 14:05 |
| alphydan | k1l: I'm explaining how we solved the problem I was asking about above | 14:06 |
| k1l | messing with startx will break the permissions in your home. make sure that everything in the home belongs to your user. especially .Xauthority etc | 14:06 |
| jass | vorsprung: changed the file but no change | 14:06 |
| alphydan | sveta: so we looked at the user rights, ls -lh .xsession-errors | 14:06 |
| alphydan | ls -lh .Xauthority | 14:06 |
| alphydan | and they were only root, -rw------- 1 root | 14:07 |
| alphydan | sveta: so we $ sudo chown username.username .Xauthority | 14:07 |
| jass | brb | 14:08 |
| alphydan | $ sudo chown username.username .xsession-error | 14:08 |
| sveta | alphydan: i see | 14:08 |
| alphydan | sveta: then stoped and started lightdm and it was all fine | 14:08 |

| qknight_ | does the ubuntu 12.04 not support ext2 filesystems? my boot fs ist ext2 and i accidentally uninstalled all kernels | 14:35 |
| holstein | qknight_: yes.. 12.04 has ext2 support | 14:36 |
| qknight_ | holstein: ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso <- this is what i have | 14:36 |
| holstein | qknight_: 12.04 supports ext2 | 14:36 |
| qknight_ | holstein: but yet mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/boot tells me: mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext2' | 14:36 |
| holstein | qknight_: id say, you have other problems.. first thing i would do is make sure i have my data backed up.. that will be a good use of time since *all* drives fail.. then, move on to repair.. chroot or reinstall or whatever | 14:37 |
| holstein | testing the hard drive would be on my list.. | 14:38 |
| qknight_ | holstein: no, the disks are alright, i just removed the kernels and did a apt-get upgrade | 14:38 |
| qknight_ | which then installed the new grup (with no kernels) and rebooting will then start memtest86 | 14:38 |
| jhutchins | ext2 has been supported since kernel 0.99 in 1993 | 14:39 |
| qknight_ | probably my rescue stick is broken, it also tells me: SQUASHFS error: unable to read page, block 273737, size a802 | 14:39 |
| qknight_ | ok, thanks | 14:39 |
| qknight_ | i replace my stick now | 14:39 |
| holstein | qknight_: you'll not assume the disks are "alright".. test them to be sure, and have your data backed up regardless.. | 14:39 |
| holstein | qknight_: a lack or ext support is *not* the issue.. thats not the only thing that message can indicate.. | 14:40 |

| holstein | jass: it'll save where you save.. in the directory you are or specifiy | 14:45 |
| jass | jass: I see. then it would dump everything in home directory | 14:46 |
| jass | which is bad | 14:46 |
| holstein | jass: its not "bad".. its just whats happening, and you can do or specify otherwise | 14:46 |
| jass | hmmmm | 14:48 |
| sveta | azkaban: you mentioned that you uninstalled kernels accidentally and you're getting an error; please give a full description of the error messages. I personally think that a system /can not boot/ without a kernel. | 14:50 |
| jass | holstein: i can create some directory and stop the sshd | 14:51 |
| kagumu | hi | 14:51 |
| jass | and then go to sshd and start it in that directory, will that do, holstein ? | 14:51 |
| holstein | jass: sshd is not moving any files.. its just ssh | 14:51 |
| holstein | jass: you will be use scp to move.. and ssh to facilitate the connection | 14:51 |
| jass | holstein: yeah | 14:52 |
| holstein | jass: what is the goal here? an ongoing connection between windows and ubuntu? or a one time move? | 14:52 |
| jass | holstein: one time move of some 300G data | 14:52 |
| somsip | jass: use rsync so you can resume | 14:52 |
| jass | moving the backup to ubuntu from windows | 14:52 |
| jass | somsip: but rsync would work from windows? | 14:53 |
| somsip | jass: no idea. This is an ubuntu channel | 14:53 |
| holstein | jass: there is a GUI.. grsync | 14:53 |
| somsip | jass: fair question though :) | 14:53 |

| holstein | jass: ssh is *not* moving the files, friend.. its just making the connection | 14:56 |
| yuiibe | ... | 14:56 |
| holstein | jass: you would specify when moving where you want the files to go.. in the GUI for rsync, grsync, there are easy ways to specify the destination | 14:56 |
| jass | holstein: gotcha | 14:56 |
| holstein | jass: you just get ssh running, which you dont need to do, since ssh client is already in ubuntu.. and you done need the ssh server there.. you can run a server on the windows side to faciliate the transfer.. ftp for example | 14:57 |
| jass | holstein: Ohkay | 14:59 |
| jass | holstein: so I don't need to give any settings of my ubuntu into windows | 14:59 |
| jass | I would do everything from my side | 14:59 |
| xlrg | \join #c++ | 14:59 |
| holstein | jass: i wouldnt overthink this, since its a one time transfer.. | 15:00 |
| holstein | jass: you would setup a server on one machine or the other, and access with a client on the other.. and copy the files | 15:00 |
| jass | holstein: yeah, just starting it. Need to know the local address | 15:00 |
| holstein | jass: yes.. but, you'll need local addresses and connections *regardless*.. those are given.. you'll want IP's and firewalls down or access granted.. what would i do? pull the windows firewall down and make sure the machines can ping each other | 15:02 |
| jass | pfft | 15:03 |
| jass | going to use fileZilla | 15:03 |
| holstein | jass: sure.. thats an option on both ubuntu and windows.. so, ftp server on windows? or ssh on ubuntu? you can connect to ssh server on ubuntu from sftp client in filezilla on windows | 15:04 |
| jass | ftp on windows | 15:04 |
| jass | with freeSSHd | 15:04 |
| holstein | jass: i would want resume, as somsip suggested | 15:04 |

| Bosi | E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/repository.spotify.com_dists_stable_non-free_i18n_Translation-pt%5fBR | 15:04 |

| holstein | jass: openssh is what you would use on ubuntu | 15:05 |
| Bosi | The software is working fine... but these error messages are kind of annoying | 15:05 |
| holstein | jass: but, you dont use a server on both sides like that.. you dont need ftp server on windows and ssh on ubuntu.. or ftp and ssh servers.. you only need one server and one client in the scenario | 15:05 |
| Bosi | any ideas on how to fix them? | 15:05 |
| jass | holstein: I am going to stop sshd I have started with sudo service sshd stop | 15:06 |
| jass | and then start ftp on windows | 15:06 |
| holstein | jass: you need not do that, friend | 15:06 |
| jass | using filezilla on ubuntu | 15:06 |
| jass | and transfer it all | 15:06 |
| jass | holstein: Oh | 15:06 |
| bcvery | Bosi, yes this: http://forum.pinguyos.com/Thread-Few-Problems-with-Pinguy-New-to-Linux?pid=33166#pid33166 | 15:06 |

| jass | okay, got it | 15:07 |

| krabador | what vga mode i can use on ati radeon 9200 on lubuntu 14.04 ? | 15:09 |
| krabador | it seems slow | 15:09 |
| holstein | krabador: it really depends.. are you using the proprietary driver? | 15:11 |
| krabador | holstein, i can't. the latest for 9200 its supported only until xorg 1.13 | 15:12 |
| holstein | krabador: that would be the "best" likely for linux support | 15:12 |
| krabador | holstein, only mesa radeon driver | 15:12 |

| krabador | holstein, 9200 haven't one for xorg > 1.13, right? | 15:14 |
| krabador | i must use only opensource driver | 15:14 |
| holstein | krabador: you can meet the specifications needed and test | 15:14 |
| holstein | krabador: otherwise, i might temporarily use the vesa driver to make sure the issue is driver related | 15:15 |

| MonkeyDust | sdafd indeed, vbox has its own share settings | 16:17 |
| sdafd | Yup I understand that vbox has it's own however the performance seems to be pretty slow. | 16:17 |
| sdafd | Running a git status on a laravel project it takes like 30 seconds for it to show anything | 16:17 |

| sdafd | somsip, It's ok :). Any help is better than no help :). | 16:36 |
| sdafd | holstein, thank you for just saying the right thing. I thought about changing the networking type but never did anything until you started talking about those two different types whether it was network or virtualization related | 16:37 |
| holstein | sdafd: sure.. hope you get the performance you seek | 16:38 |
| jass | holstein: when I try to ssh to windows it stuck at connecting to ip-address step | 16:38 |

| Demonhat | well the problem is that ubuntu 14.04 hangs alot in my dell | 16:58 |
| puskihilaer | Demonhat: have you used any other distros | 16:58 |
| Demonhat | no | 16:58 |
| Demonhat | i am just using ubuntu for now | 16:58 |
| puskihilaer | jass | 16:59 |
| theadmin | Demonhat: If you're new you may want to stay with Ubuntu. What is your hardware like? | 16:59 |
| Demonhat | i have 4 gb ram, intel core i5 processor | 16:59 |
| Demonhat | 1 gb graphics and it is of RADEON | 17:00 |
| jass | puskihilaer: yeah? | 17:00 |
| theadmin | Demonhat: That should work well, but try installing the AMD driver | 17:00 |
| Demonhat | where should i install them from | 17:00 |
| theadmin | Demonhat: System Settings -> Software & Updates -> Additional Drivers -> Check the AMD one | 17:00 |
| Demonhat | i mean i looked at additional drivers and it showed me that it had installed AMD | 17:01 |
| theadmin | Ah alright, so that's installed | 17:01 |
| puskihilaer | theadmin: he has Intel why and. | 17:01 |
| theadmin | puskihilaer: He did say Radeon... That's an AMD brand | 17:01 |
| puskihilaer | Intel i5 probably better than catalyst in linux | 17:02 |
| theadmin | puskihilaer: uwot? The core i5 is a processor, Catalyst is an app, how do you even compare the two | 17:03 |
| ilovelinux | hello | 17:03 |
| theadmin | Demonhat: Does it freeze when you do something in particular, or just randomly? | 17:03 |
| puskihilaer | I5 has its own built in graphics hw | 17:03 |
| Demonhat | yeah it freezes when i do something particular | 17:04 |
| theadmin | puskihilaer: Oh, that's what you're talking aboot -- yeah, but using the integrated graphics usually gives worse performance than a dedicated GPU | 17:04 |
| theadmin | Demonhat: so what is it, then? | 17:04 |
| Demonhat | yesterday i created a new account in my computer and i opened it up. I felt like why was i even using ubuntu | 17:05 |
| Demonhat | because more than funtioning properly it was always freezing | 17:05 |
| Demonhat | but when i use it from the account that i am using now, it doesn't behave like that | 17:05 |
| Demonhat | it seems like after some hours, ubuntu gets familier with the account hahhaha.. | 17:06 |
| Demonhat | and so it runs smoothly | 17:06 |
| Demonhat | so no one has experienced a problem like me | 17:08 |
| jhutchins | Nope | 17:11 |

| holstein | Demonhat: sounds like you know where the issue is.. | 17:15 |
| ilovelinux01 | hello | 17:15 |
| Demonhat | can you teach me about ubuntu | 17:15 |
| Demonhat | i am pretty new to this | 17:15 |
| Caroga | hi all | 17:15 |
| ilovelinux01 | hi Caroga | 17:15 |
| Demonhat | i feel ignored | 17:16 |
| holstein | Demonhat: i would say, not generally like that.. but, if you have a more specific question, the volunteers here can easily address them | 17:16 |
| ilovelinux01 | which distro you use? | 17:16 |
| === tcpman is now known as Guest4081 | ||
| Demonhat | well i had | 17:16 |
| Demonhat | but no one answered my question | 17:17 |
| ilovelinux01 | which distro you use? | 17:17 |
| holstein | Demonhat: about the user accounts? i just stated, at least you know where the issue is | 17:17 |
| holstein | ilovelinux01: this is the ubuntu support channel.. please dont poll | 17:17 |
| himself_ | 'Teach me about ubuntu' Hard to get more vague than that on an ubuntu irc while staying on topic | 17:17 |
| Demonhat | i know where the issues are but you still haven't told me how to fix it. | 17:18 |
| Caroga | himself_, he could have just said "teach me some stuff" | 17:18 |
| Caroga | bringing it to a whole new level of vagueness | 17:18 |
| holstein | Demonhat: have you tried just simply applying updates? | 17:18 |
| Demonhat | yeah | 17:19 |
| OerHeks | Demonhat, you haven't told us what you do when "it freezes when i do something particular" | 17:19 |
| Demonhat | i have installed all updates while was intalling | 17:19 |
| kindomcome | :) | 17:19 |
| holstein | Demonhat: yeah? whay? you have applied updates? how? when? will you please open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade", even if you have already.. thanks | 17:19 |
| Caroga | hi OerHeks | 17:20 |
| Demonhat | i have told you. 1) it freezes whenever i create a new account or open the ubuntu software center for installing some software | 17:20 |
| holstein | Demonhat: please open a terminal and copy paste "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and paste errors.. | 17:20 |
| Demonhat | yesterday i installed dropbox and after 5 second, my whole computer froze for more than 10 minutes | 17:20 |
| holstein | !paste | Demonhat | 17:20 |
| ubottu | Demonhat: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 17:20 |
| holstein | Demonhat: if you need dropbox support, i would ask the creators of dropbox.. otherwise, try disabling and/or removing it to isolate it from the issues you are having | 17:21 |
| OerHeks | Does syncing take 10 minutes? | 17:21 |
| OerHeks | hi Caroga | 17:22 |
| holstein | Demonhat: my dropbox account is quite large, and took over a day to sync, and the machine was quite (expectedly) laggy during the process.. | 17:22 |
| Caroga | dropbox syncing has always been very slow, imho | 17:22 |
| holstein | Demonhat: what i will do, if i have access to the files, is manually put the files or most of them in place, with a network connection or USB drive.. then, the dropbox needs not pull down the files like that. it can index what i have manually synced | 17:23 |
| Caroga | holstein, what i usually do is download everything from the dropbox website, this is faster. Unpack it, and place it inside the dropbox folder. | 17:24 |
| Caroga | and then dropbox does the rest. | 17:24 |
| holstein | Caroga: hey, thats not bad.. if you dont have a copy locally.. i like that | 17:24 |
| Caroga | holstein: ;-) | 17:24 |
| Caroga | Jordan_U, I eventually ended up using MSDOS tables instead of GPT. Somehow this didn't worked well OOTB | 17:25 |
| Demonhat | now how do i paste my problem here | 17:28 |

| === dfgas_off is now known as dfgas | ||
| holstein | Demonhat: please open a terminal, and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 17:31 |
| holstein | Demonhat: after that, please disable and/or remove dropbox til you get your graphics issues stable | 17:33 |
| Demonhat | why | 17:33 |
| holstein | Demonhat: why, what? | 17:33 |
| Demonhat | why should i remove or disable dropbox? | 17:33 |
| holstein | Demonhat: why disable dropbox? its irrelevant, and just complicating your troubleshooting of your grahpics hardware | 17:33 |
| Demonhat | well listen up, i have looked at system setting and it shows that graphic driver is properly installed. Even if the graphic driver is the problem, how will i fix it? You haven't told me the solution | 17:35 |
| Caroga | Demonhat, Please explain exactly what your problem is, people have been posting several commands for you to execute already. | 17:35 |
| holstein | Demonhat: the solution would be, for the creator of the hardware to provide you linux support, as they have provided you windows support.. but, since that is not likely, its just you and me right now.. and i need more data and have suggestions for you to do | 17:36 |
| holstein | Demonhat: have you removed dropbox? and/or disabled? have you ran the update command in the terminal? sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 17:36 |
| Caroga | holstein, what is the problem he is facing actually? I havent been tracking it. | 17:37 |
| Demonhat | i am doing it. Downloading takes whole lot of time man. | 17:37 |
| holstein | Caroga: looks like graphics driver support.. probably just needs a proprietary graphics driver installed.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7747953/ | 17:38 |
| Caroga | hmm | 17:38 |
| Caroga | Demonhat, how much RAM do you have? | 17:39 |
| Demonhat | and <holstein> ask me anything that you want to know. i will provide you the information but i want to get this problem fixed. But lets just wait till the download completes | 17:39 |
| holstein | Demonhat: there is not "fix" though, friend.. nothing is broken | 17:39 |
| Demonhat | I have 4GB RAM | 17:39 |
| holstein | Demonhat: you can just try other driver options.. and updates to address the lack of support for your hardware | 17:40 |
| Demonhat | i wanted to be greatest computer scientist of the world and this problem is kicking my butt. | 17:40 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: "my admin account" What is that? | 17:41 |
| Caroga | hi usr13 | 17:41 |
| usr13 | Caroga: Hello :) | 17:41 |
| Demonhat | the account that i created at the time when i installed the ubuntu for the first time. | 17:41 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: So just keep using that one. (You said it runs fine on that one, right?) | 17:42 |
| Demonhat | yeah | 17:42 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: (not sure why it would be different from one account to another but...) | 17:43 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: So just keep using that original account. | 17:43 |
| Demonhat | i would do the same but you see i will have many private things in my account. i dont want others to see it. So i have to open a new account for other ultimately | 17:44 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: What happens when you run from one of the other accounts? | 17:45 |
| Demonhat | well the problem is that it only freezes alot when i open a new account and use it for 4 or 5 day. After that, it becomes completely normal and runs smoothly like the account i am using now | 17:46 |
| Caroga | usr13, you happen to know what module i have to blacklist to disable my fingerprint reader ? | 17:48 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: You say that you can not use software center on the other account. Right? Well, that is because it does not have sudo (admin) priviledges. Unless you afford those special rights to the other user, it will not have access, (it is suppose to be that way). | 17:49 |
| high_fiver | is there a bug with cs:precise/mysql being unable to start? | 17:49 |
| Demonhat | usr13: i am the only one who uses this computer for now and i have installed the ubunutu my self. why would it not have priviledges? | 17:50 |
| high_fiver | the mysql service that is | 17:50 |
| usr13 | Caroga: No, I don't. But should be fairly easy to find out. | 17:50 |
| holstein | Demonhat: the other users you have added dont have permissions to manage software | 17:50 |
| Caroga | high_fiver, I would rather ask in a mysql irc channel | 17:51 |
| holstein | Demonhat: you can grante them permission.. but, then they will have rights to manage your files | 17:51 |
| Caroga | if there is any | 17:51 |
| high_fiver | Caroga, it's a ubuntu charm | 17:51 |
| Demonhat | well when it ask for permission to enter the password of the admin, i have always entered it. | 17:51 |
| high_fiver | Caroga, I'll head over there if you think it will help | 17:51 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: Because if you add a new ueser, that new user will have only limited privileges until shuch time as you afford more rights to more devices and / or services. (It is suppose to be that way.) | 17:52 |
| holstein | Demonhat: if you are asking a quesiton like "why cant users i add install software?". its becuase they are not granted permission | 17:52 |
| Demonhat | oh okay | 17:52 |
| Caroga | high_fiver, Asking around in there wouldnt hurt, if they have the same problem they may already have a solution. If so, maybe add bug to launchpad and report possible solution. | 17:52 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: It is that way by default. It is pretty easy to change it though. But why do it? (If you are the only one using the computer, you can just use the original account.) | 17:53 |
| usr13 | Demonhat: I can tell you how to change it if you like,. | 17:53 |
| holstein | if you give the new user sudo access, they can access your files.. | 17:53 |
| high_fiver | Caroga, cool I'll give it a shot | 17:53 |
| === dfgas is now known as dfgas_off | ||
| Demonhat | <holstein> whatever. I want to ask this as well, how to make a new LoCo Team? I read the documentation is which is the website but i haven't understood a word. Can you help me? | 17:54 |
| holstein | Demonhat: is there no loco team where you are? | 17:55 |
| Demonhat | holstein: no | 17:55 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Do LTS versions (i.e. 14.04 LTS) get kernel updates? I am referencing https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1326725/comments/52 and my PS3 USB controller support would be fixed, but if it won't I guess I need to do this manually. | 17:55 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1326725 in linux (Ubuntu) "PS3 Sixaxis controller/joystick usb stopped working, regression in linux-image-extra-3.13.0-27-generic" [Medium,Confirmed] | 17:55 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: you get choice | 17:56 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: you can use different Ubuntu branch kernels with it | 17:56 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | As part of standard install? well will that kernel get upgraded if I just wait? | 17:56 |
| holstein | Demonhat: you can try #ubuntu-locoteams | 17:56 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | rather than force users of my project to upgrade the kernel | 17:56 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: as part of standard install it stays with oldest Canonical can maintain | 17:56 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: you can switch to using latest Ubuntu kernel with LTS any time though | 17:57 |
| NthDegree | for example I'm rocking 3.11 on 12.04LTS | 17:57 |
| NthDegree | :D | 17:57 |
| NthDegree | (I could be on 3.13 but it's broken for some things) | 17:57 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | ah ok, NthDegree , so to do that, should I just install the deb like this: http://www.sysads.co.uk/2014/04/installupgrade-linux-kernel-3-14-trusty-ubuntu/ | 17:57 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: there's a built-in package for it | 17:58 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Where can I find that? Thank you for helping | 17:58 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: there should be virtual packages like linux-headers-generic-lts-saucy | 17:59 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: and linux-image-generic-lts-saucy | 17:59 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: it should be the case that when LTS+1 is out, that those official packages will be made available | 18:00 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: for now, you can use saucy LTS if you still need security updates and the kernel is new enough for your hardware =] | 18:01 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Hmmm never heard about LTS+1 and all that, I'm mainly an Arch guy. Is there a mailing list of page I can follow those releases? | 18:01 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: by LTS+1 I mean next Ubuntu release (sorry... nerd lingo) | 18:01 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | oh np | 18:02 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I chose 14.04 since it was stable and I could hit a slow moving target for my git project | 18:02 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Stinks that the hid-sony kernel module regressed | 18:02 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: well you should be able to throw on the 13.10 kernel by apt-get install linux-image-generic-lts-saucy | 18:03 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: that'll let you keep 14.04 LTS with the older kernel with security patches still =] | 18:03 |
| NthDegree | ProfessorKaos64: when 14.10 is out, you can then throw on the newer kernel by apt-getting that ;-) | 18:04 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | hhmmm interesting | 18:04 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I'll have to decided if I want to make people do that in my install script or just note it in the wiki | 18:04 |
| NthDegree | coolest part: Proprietary drivers still work, they're not dependant on a specific branch | 18:05 |
| NthDegree | I use saucy kernel with 12.04LTS because 3.13 won't work with some proprietary software | 18:05 |
| Blocker | Hi everyone. I am attempting to upgrade Ubuntu 11.04 - the Natty Narwhal to a supported release but the automated system wants to upgrade to 11.10 but I get a "failed to fetch" error every time. | 18:06 |
| holstein | !eol | 18:06 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 18:06 |
| NthDegree | Blocker: you're best off installing a newer release cleanly | 18:07 |
| NthDegree | Blocker: but you might be able to upgrade to 12.04 if you manually change the apt sources | 18:07 |
| oniMaker | I'm running into "Abort pclzip.lib.php : Missing zlib extensions" | 18:08 |

| oniMaker | it looks like zlib is installed though | 18:08 |
| oniMaker | and there are config options set for it in php.ini | 18:08 |

| iceburnt | could you tell me why uget didn't work well? | 19:25 |
| Beldar | !kali | gaspyr | 19:25 |
| ubottu | gaspyr: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 19:25 |
| gaspyr | thanks beldar | 19:28 |
| Beldar | gaspyr, NO prob, don't go there in root. | 19:28 |
| TJ- | _Crash_Laptop: first you need to identify where the excess space is being used, with something like "du -xd 1 / | sort -n" | 19:29 |

| bekks | craigbass1976: Did you set a password to the user "not working"? | 19:33 |
| lyda | ok. weird. killing the wpa_supplicant process will allow wlan0 to reconnect. | 19:34 |
| bekks | lyda: Actually wpa_supplicant is used to connect. | 19:34 |
| TJ- | _Crash_Laptop: According to that, root file-system is only using close to 10GB, whereas your 'df' output shows 100% of 20GB used. That suggests some process that is still running right now has unlinked (deleted) a file but its space will not be released until the process terminates. | 19:35 |
| lyda | yes. i'm aware. but killing the one that was running prior to suspend will then result in networkmanager spinning up a new one. | 19:35 |
| TJ- | _Crash_Laptop: You can check for unlinked but still-taking-space files using "sudo find /proc/*/fd/ -type l | grep deleted" and figuring out if any of those file-descriptor sym-links might be pointing to *large* files... in your case, files making up around 10GB | 19:37 |
| TJ- | _Crash_Laptop: correction to that command: "sudo find /proc/*/fd/ -type l -ls | grep deleted" | 19:38 |
| craigbass1976 | bekks: yes. I can su - to the user (and get prompted for the pass) but can't ssh in as them. | 19:39 |
| _Crash_Laptop | TJ-, i'm unsure if they are large files | 19:40 |
| TJ- | _Crash_Laptop: Is it a large list? | 19:40 |
| bekks | craigbass1976: Thats not an answer to my question. "su -" needs the root password, not the user password. | 19:40 |

| TJ- | _Crash_Laptop: You might be able to free up some space without touching those unlinked files, at least enough to let you get the system stable so you can do a reboot.

| SinnerNyx | *apt-get | 19:58 |
| bekks | SinnerNyx: Which application is it, actually? | 19:58 |
| SinnerNyx | pycharm | 19:58 |
| Beldar | SinnerNyx, Technically 3rd party apps/software is not supported here. | 19:58 |
| holstein | SinnerNyx: it depends on the application as to how it is intended to be installed.. | 19:58 |
| SinnerNyx | Beldar: I'm not asking for support on the application. I'm asking where applications are normally stored in Ubuntu. | 19:59 |
| holstein | SinnerNyx: http://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/installation_instructions.jsp?os=linux | 19:59 |
| Beldar | SinnerNyx, depends on the app and how you install if 3rd party | 19:59 |
| holstein | NOTE: PyCharm on Linux doesn't need special installation or running any installation script. It runs out of the pycharm-*.tar.gz ..specifically | 19:59 |
| holstein | SinnerNyx: you can just run it from where ever you unpack.. you dont need to move it into any system location, and ideally, i suggest *not* putting it in a system location that requires root.. | 20:00 |
| SinnerNyx | holstein: Ya I saw that. But I still want to put it alongside where apps are normally stored? I can't imagine every app installs to a different place... | 20:00 |
| SinnerNyx | holstein: fair enough. | 20:00 |
| SinnerNyx | Out of curiousity where are apps downloaded through apt-get usually installed to? | 20:01 |
| holstein | SinnerNyx: applications install packages where needed | 20:01 |
| holstein | SinnerNyx: when using repo packages, the software managment system manages all of that.. different things different places, depending on needs | 20:01 |

| genii | Glorfindel: You can make images of an entire disk, or a partition with the dd command. For example: dd if=/dev/sda of=/somewhere-on-local-disk/filename.img would image sda to a file. To resore, you just reverse the if= and of= parts. | 20:17 |

| Guest63224 | Hello. Which virtual machine do You recommend to run Ubuntu Server inside Ubuntu Desktop? | 20:55 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest63224 virtualbox | 20:55 |
| Guest63224 | MonkeyDust: Why? | 20:56 |
| holstein | yeah, i agree, virtualbox, or, just dont virtualize like that at all | 20:56 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest63224 because it's in the repos and supported here | 20:56 |
| Guest63224 | MonkeyDust: Fair enough :) TU | 20:56 |
| Ben64 | Guest63224: why would you need to run server in a vm? desktop version can be a server as well | 20:57 |
| Guest63224 | Ben64: I want to run dangerous commands, and want to keep my real machine safe. | 20:57 |
| Ben64 | Guest63224: sounds good | 20:58 |
| nightdemon | agreed, no point in virtualizing the server when all the services can be run on non-virtual host. running vm would actually be more overhead | 20:58 |
| Guest63224 | nightdemon: It will be "playground" without influencing real machine. | 20:59 |
| nightdemon | nevermind... i just read the last message Guest63224 | 20:59 |
| Beldar | mepuq, So what is the core issue and what is it you want, and what OS's are on the computer? | 20:59 |
| RageLtMan | Has anyone done a net install of 12.04 x64 in the last few days? Seems to be broken | 20:59 |
| nightdemon | then i would agree with virtualbox... do you not have another computer to run these commands on? | 20:59 |
| holstein | RageLtMan: what iso are you using? mini? | 21:00 |
| Beldar | RageLtMan, A mini install? be exacting if you have a problem. | 21:00 |
| Guest63224 | nightdemon: It's like that: Something terribly wrong goes in virtual machine - nothing serious happens. Something terribly wrong goes in real machine - You are screwed ;) | 21:01 |
| mepuq | Beldar, as I wrote at the beginning, I am just curious how the boot order could change by itself after an update. or whether the changes applied via grub customizer might have taken effect only after the referred updates. yet even in that case, the changes saved in the application are not fully adopted. | 21:01 |
| RageLtMan | Using net install as a xen vm | 21:01 |
| RageLtMan | on different clusters, hangs right after network detect | 21:01 |
| RageLtMan | diff hardware, diff xen versions | 21:01 |
| RageLtMan | will try in vbox next | 21:01 |
| RageLtMan | getting full DVDs to make sure | 21:02 |
| Beldar | mepuq, The grub customizer is a ppa not supported nor do we know what voodoo you did with it nor if done correctly, so unanswerable from us. | 21:02 |
| holstein | mepuq: you stated that you updated, and the boot order changed | 21:02 |
| anshul | hello | 21:02 |
| hem | hi its seems a libreoffice/unity bug is effecting with my nvidia geforce go 7400 card. The libreoffice menu is greyed and I cannot read it. Anyone with a solutionen that works? Tried a few but none works. This does not effect if I install cinnamon DE. | 21:02 |
| holstein | mepuq: you can refer to the grub wiki, and address the config and order, and share errors | 21:02 |
| hem | It only effects libreoffice under Unity | 21:03 |
| Beldar | hem, What ubuntu release? | 21:03 |
| hem | Beldar, 14.04 | 21:03 |
| Beldar | hem, Cinnamon is a ppa in 14.04 so not supported. Choose one issue that is supported at a time please. | 21:04 |
| mepuq | holstein, yes. after update it happened. I was just curious if that is possible to happen. I | 21:04 |
| hem | Beldar, yeah but I use libreoffice daily, I cannot use it under Ubuntu with unity because cannot read the menu. | 21:04 |
| mepuq | Beldar. I am not mainly asking about things I did with grub customizer, if you read my questions | 21:05 |
| holstein | mepuq: if you added packages that facilitate that change, then, it'll happend.. its possible if you specifically add something that is supposed to do so | 21:05 |
| Beldar | hem, Honestly with you including two problems together you need to restate the libreoffice issue clearly. | 21:05 |
| hem | Beldar, I have read in launchpad that this bug supposed was fixed in 12.10. I can say it is not. | 21:06 |
| Beldar | hem, Have you added the libreoffice ppa as well or is this stock release fro the ubuntu repos? | 21:06 |
| hem | Beldar, how is that 2 problem togheter? | 21:06 |
| holstein | hem: check as another user.. make sure you have no issue with your particular config.. | 21:06 |
| Beldar | hem, never mind you cannot understand. | 21:06 |
| hem | Beldar, I have tried libreoffice from there site, openoffice and all gives same result. | 21:06 |
| hem | Beldar, :) If you think I am noob you are mistaking. | 21:07 |
| dotDeb | what's the problem? | 21:07 |
| holstein | hem: use the version in the repos.. the supported version from the repos and try as the guest user | 21:07 |
| hem | Beldar, I know Cinnamon is PPA and not best solutionen. Do you have a better? | 21:07 |
| holstein | hem: have you tried as another user? | 21:08 |
| hem | holstein, I use the version from the repo and its stil accours. | 21:08 |
| holstein | hem: as another user? | 21:08 |
| Beldar | mepuq, No but you stated you used it and it did not work, than have not clearly stated the issue, try to ook at it from out point of viewing in understanding your issue. | 21:08 |
| Obiwantje | guys got a silly issue and not sure how to resolve - executing this command: | 21:08 |
| Obiwantje | find -L . -type f -name '*.gz'|head -32000|xargs mv -t /mnt/roms00/12 | 21:08 |
| Beldar | look* | 21:08 |
| hem | holstein, I have delete libreoffice directery in home and that did not help. So I do not think new user or guest account will help. | 21:08 |
| Obiwantje | I get this error on several files: | 21:09 |
| Obiwantje | mv: cannot remove ‘./uncategorized/7634225269096ac762a6480cbd0b8866afbed79a.gz’: Read-only file system | 21:09 |
| holstein | hem: i suggest doing that *again* with the supported repo version.. | 21:09 |
| Obiwantje | now if I by hand type: rm ./uncategorized/7634225269096ac762a6480cbd0b8866afbed79a.gz | 21:09 |
| hem | holstein, but I can try and I will come back. If you are in the channel I will write to you. | 21:09 |
| Obiwantje | it deletes the file no probs | 21:09 |
| mepuq | holstein, I manually didnt add any package. but I saw that multiple grub-related packages were included in the update. the reason for mentioning my own effort with grub customizer was to know whether the system might have recognized my attempt at changing grub, and automatically added packages (that made the changes take effect now, if the system works that way, of course) | 21:09 |
| Obiwantje | what might I be doing wrong? | 21:10 |
| holstein | mepuq: you stated you installed grub customizer.. | 21:10 |
| mepuq | holstein, yes, but somehow the changes I made using it werent applied. and I didnt try further back then..this was a while ago. and today, before this session, I ran the update manager which included the grub updates I mentioned. | 21:11 |
| Beldar | mepuq, You are looking for a yes or no answer, it does not really work that way in linux sometimes, getting more acquainted with grub so you can ask exact questions with evidence will get you better help. | 21:12 |
| === STiK_ is now known as STiK | ||
| holstein | mepuq: sure.. and you already said that changes were made during that update, so you dont need to ask if changes can be made.. as for why they were made, i would look into the 3rd party, unsupported package | 21:12 |

| holstein | mepuq: if you want to change something, refer to the docs, and try changing the config file, and running "sudo update-grub" and share any errors.. | 21:13 |
| mepuq | holstein, now I see you probably misunderstood that I was trying to do more with grub at this point. no, I dont want to. as I said, I just found it strange that all of a sudden after the update my grub order changed. and you just replied that if I installed an external application and did something with it to grub, then it is well possible that the changes would take effect with an update. this was all I wanted to know. if I didnt get you wrong with the latt | 21:17 |

| qballer | Hey Guys, can anyone help with this http://askubuntu.com/questions/491719/graphics-hdmi-driver-not-defined ? | 22:02 |
| usr13 | qballer: Did you install kubuntu-desktop ? | 22:07 |
| qballer | it's the distro of kubuntu ... the actual os usr13 | 22:07 |
| usr13 | qballer: So, you installed kubuntu from scratch? | 22:08 |
| qballer | usr13: yep | 22:08 |
| qballer | 14.04 | 22:08 |
| usr13 | qballer: Just to get the KDE Desktop? | 22:08 |
| qballer | performance wise it works better. | 22:08 |
| usr13 | qballer: Well, ok. But for FYI (and future reference), you can just install [package] kubuntu-desktop | 22:09 |
| usr13 | !info kubuntu-desktop | qballer | 22:09 |
| ubottu | qballer: kubuntu-desktop (source: kubuntu-meta): Kubuntu Plasma Desktop/Netbook system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.308.1 (trusty), package size 4 kB, installed size 56 kB | 22:09 |
| qballer | I did that first usr13, that how i tested kde | 22:09 |
| usr13 | qballer: So before that, you had regular Ubuntu? (With Unity)? | 22:10 |
| qballer | still something wasn't smoth. It was better than unity but would slow down a bit. this is far better. | 22:10 |
| qballer | Yes | 22:10 |
| qballer | Which was slow... | 22:11 |
| qballer | terminal was fine but the UI would sometimes kill me. | 22:11 |
| qballer | so any ideas on point? | 22:11 |
| usr13 | qballer: "kill me"? | 22:11 |
| usr13 | qballer: I suppose you could install [package] ubuntu-desktop | 22:12 |
| qballer | it's a figure of speech from where I'm from which was poorly translated. | 22:12 |
| * ubuntu___ | 22:12 | |
| qballer | Why? I don't want unity. | 22:12 |
| usr13 | qballer: So what package do you need? | 22:12 |
| usr13 | qballer: Or what package do you *think* you need? | 22:13 |
| qballer | I need the HDMI video card to work AKA intel graphics | 22:13 |
| RudyValencia | Hi, how do I upgrade the Linux kernel if /boot (on a separate partition) is full? | 22:13 |
| usr13 | qballer: (Because I don't know.) (It is obviously something you had before but not now.) (so.....) | 22:13 |
| RudyValencia | (it has about 5-6 other versions of the kernel) | 22:13 |
| k1l_ | qballer: the hdmi stuff is not related to the desktop you run | 22:13 |
| Beldar | RudyValencia, clean out extra kernels | 22:13 |
| MonkeyDust | RudyValencia remove obsolete kernels | 22:14 |
| qballer | no common way to troubleshoot? | 22:14 |
| dbb | if /boot is full you have other probels ;-) | 22:14 |
| usr13 | qballer: Maybe it is compiz | 22:14 |
| RudyValencia | Not sure how to remove the old kernels? | 22:14 |
| qballer | k1l_: I know, it' | 22:14 |
| k1l_ | RudyValencia: remove old linux kernel packages | 22:14 |
| k1l_ | RudyValencia: see what linux kernels you got installed and remove some of them | 22:14 |
| qballer | k1l_: I know, it's a driver thing probably. But what changed. It worked by default last time. This is the same OS with different flavor. | 22:14 |
| MonkeyDust | RudyValencia synaptic and a few 3rd party tools can do that | 22:14 |
| RudyValencia | this is a textmode server | 22:15 |
| k1l_ | qballer: same exact ubuntu version? | 22:15 |
| MonkeyDust | RudyValencia there's also #ubuntu-server | 22:15 |
| qballer | k1l_: 14.04 in both. | 22:15 |
| JSnewbie | Hi | 22:15 |
| k1l_ | RudyValencia: dpkg -l |grep linux-image | 22:15 |
| qballer | k1l_: one os kubuntu (not working ) the other ubuntu | 22:16 |

| k1l_ | JSnewbie: well, ask the centos support? | 22:17 |
| usr13 | !centos | JSnewbie | 22:17 |

| MonkeyDust | utzouyfsi Kali is not supported here | 22:20 |
| utzouyfsi | <MonkeyDust> I had this problem before in ubuntu thats why i moved to debian , I already asked the question kali chan , | 22:22 |
| MonkeyDust | utzouyfsi yes, then wait for their answer | 22:22 |
| utzouyfsi | <MonkeyDust> I am trying to create a custom linux distro | 22:22 |

The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 23:47 |
