[00:01] All done, now, if I reboot it should boot from my HDD Installation and not have to worry about booting into this USB LIVE, right? [00:02] right [00:02] Alright I am gonna give it a reboot [00:03] ok [00:03] Thank you [00:03] you're welcome === gad is now known as Gadd [00:06] !java [00:06] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [00:06] why is joining a wpa2 network so hard from commandline, using 14.04 ? [00:07] rickylm_: did it work ? [00:07] eeee: Hey man, one thing, I think I use to rename that bootmgfw.efi.backup to its original name because m windows 8 will not boot [00:07] But yes my ubuntu booted from the HDD [00:07] *think I have to rename [00:08] alright try that out [00:08] what is windows 8 saying [00:08] It said [00:08] Failed to find bootmgfw.efi [00:08] lol [00:08] Haha [00:08] yeah, i think that might be it [00:08] haha [00:09] Yea I think so to lmao. Im gonna rename it to the original and reboot again [00:09] Ill pop back in and let you know [00:09] ok [00:09] I have this weird thing going on with my laptop when I play videos(either with an application or on the web) where the playback is a low fps. If I make the video fullscreen it goes to the expected fps. Any ideas how I would go about figuring out why this is doing this? [00:12] Works now. [00:12] cool [00:13] So in the future if I was to repeat this process I just essentially re install ubuntu and over write the two boot files and I should be ok [00:13] Any thing I should be doing with a new installation eeee ? [00:13] yeah [00:14] well lots of stuff [00:14] hello [00:14] do official ubuntu kernels have debug info? [00:14] add the universe repository, apt-get update [00:14] Im assuming snatching updates [00:14] The universe repos ? [00:15] yeah type in the dash software [00:15] and go to software and updates [00:16] Alright [00:17] compizconfig settings manager is pretty cool [00:17] it lets you minimize programs by clicking on their icon in the launcher [00:18] I have the 'Trusty' Version if I am saying that right so I would need to add the trusty universe repo right [00:20] i have all repos enabled, like if you need flash it's in the restricted extra's [00:22] daftkyins_: I managed to solve the technical problem which took me the whole day. It was because my hard disk was full. solved it by deleting programs and files [00:22] selam [00:22] türk varmı [00:22] eeee: In software center [00:22] right [00:23] !tr | X_[name] [00:23] X_[name]: Turk ubuntu kullanıcıları, Türkçe yardım ya da geyik için /join #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde. [00:23] rickylm: yeah [00:24] Ok one more question, as far as updating the system itself and all my apps, how would I do that [00:25] well when important upgrades are released you get notified, [00:26] And as far as apps [00:29] i think synaptic checks for updated versions [00:29] it's like software center [00:29] you have to install it via software center [00:30] Cool I appreciate it man, thanks for your time and not being a dickhead. [00:30] for updates you can check settings > details > check for updates [00:31] sure any time [00:31] The separate partitions /home and / [00:31] Is that necessary or ? === jibran|afk is now known as jibran [00:32] Hey guys, thanks for your support. I managed to fix the issue and now Ubuntu is running fine. It was a pure disk hard space limit issue. [00:32] And for a partition manager I can use Gparted [00:32] rickylm: not really it's more if you have many os's installed [00:33] and you want to access /home from another one [00:33] And by many I assume you mean like 3 [00:33] I can combine that partition in Gpart right [00:33] yeah other linux distros [00:33] or if you want to keep your settings after a fresh install [00:34] So, all my settings are stored in my /home part [00:35] well like the settings of apps [00:35] But the apps themselves will of course be gone with a new install right [00:35] always safe to specify /home manually [00:36] rickylm: that's correct [00:36] If I wanted to say learn Ubuntu from a complete beginners stand point as far as how the system works and all that stuff you showed me. What website could I rely on? [00:37] How can i tell what driver my wireless card is currently using? [00:37] i don't know really, almost everything i learned about ubuntu was from this channel [00:38] tinfury, lsmod will show which modules are loaded, ifconfig will show you the interfaces (wlan0) so make an educated guess [00:39] tinfury, dmesg | grep wlan0 would give you info (if wlan0) is your wifi interface [00:39] rickylm: and i just google something, no particular website [00:40] Ah ok, alright thanks again man, ill check back here if I run into an issue [00:40] pavlos, thanks i think i found it with nm-tool [00:40] pavlos, it says ath9k does that mean it's using backports driver? [00:40] rickylm: just use the [SOLVED] threads that show up in google [00:41] And as far as a swap area, some threads I read say its needed some said it wasnt [00:41] if you need something and you can't come here [00:41] Wil do, thanks again man. [00:41] tinfury, not sure what you mean ... this is the atheros driver [00:41] *Will [00:42] swap is needed if you want to hibernate [00:42] pavlos, ok thanks [00:42] tinfury, np [00:42] rickylm: btw did you turn off fast boot in windows? [00:43] I tried to find that option on my system, I am pretty familiar with Windows and didnt find the option, but I did find fast boot in Toshibas power settings, inside its application. [00:43] hi, i'm having an issue where chrome browser and spotify do not display properly on my secondary monitors [00:43] has anyone had this issue? [00:56] Anyone know how to reload the interfaces file on 14.04 without rebooting? the up and down commands do not work. [00:56] hello [00:57] why a symlink has red color ? [00:57] quick question. I'm running kubuntu 14.04 LTS, though this issue might apply ubuntu-wide. How would I go about making sure that SSL is up to date? I'm using openssl btw. [00:59] entering openssl version -a in the terminal displays 1.0.1f 6 JAN 2014 [01:01] actually, brb. [01:02] oh dear...

[01:08] Not sure why I didn't do that immediately upon reinstalling (k)ubuntu on this machine. :/ [01:08] DJ_Unibob: Make sure the "built on" date is after the bug fix [01:09] DJ_Unibob: The version will still display something old... [01:09] built on is "Fri Jun 20 18:54:02 UTC 2014" [01:09] anyone know what the best way to disable caps lock on Ubuntu 14.04 is? I want to use it for tmux. [01:09] Right. It's ok then [01:10] thanks. :) [01:10] With me spending about 50-50% between both windows and linux on this machine, I am making sure both have everything, including third-party programs up to date.

[01:13] HOLA [01:14] nm i'm an idiot, even tho i was root i needed to sudo it [01:14] you're not supposed to use sudo as root [01:15] anarchos: i don't follow, when you killed it with sudo, it didn't restart?

[03:28] ( you will need to revisit your iptables setup if it does ) [03:29] K standby.. 3 mins [03:29] if that doesn't work, then the only other thing is either a.) you don't have the correct gateway set, or the provider is blocking you.

Xorg and nautilus will jump to 25% each, compiz jumps to 15% [05:55] moving around windows uses even more, and resizing them even worse [05:55] furkan, file a bug [05:56] actually i did [05:56] and it's even worse than what i initially thought [05:56] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1337749 [05:56] Ubuntu bug 1337749 in xorg (Ubuntu) "High CPU usage after resizing a window" [Undecided,New] [05:56] i didn't notice the thing before about even moving the mouse around causing high CPU usage [05:56] scrolling through Firefox even, ~70% [05:57] Abhijit: are you running 14.04? could you test to see if you get similar behaviour? i'm really curious whether this is only affecting a few people or if it's a widespread thing that nobody's noticed [05:59] furkan, yes. but right now i am using lxde. [06:00] furkan, which DE are causing you promlems? [06:00] Abhijit: i think it's an Xorg problem because it happens in Unity and I also tried KDE and Cinnamon === K7JKZ is now known as k7jkz [06:01] 205% CPS [06:01] What is this? [06:02] firefox is using 200% CPU and 11% RAM on 4gb ram? [06:02] so you're getting the same issue? well the RAM part is normal, firefox can use quite a bit of RAM [06:02] furkan, but it does affect any actualy performance. like i opened other applications and they are running fine. [06:03] "does not"** [06:03] i can not see any visual lag. and no performance issue in any computing task. [06:03] well for me i get a lot of lag with multiple windows open [06:04] especially scrolling down a page in firefox, uses 70% CPU [06:04] so it gets extremely choppy [06:04] ubuntu guys have done a great job in unity desktop env [06:04] rihbyne, yeah. thanks to unity dev. explored lxde.

[06:06] can anyone help with the name of it please [06:06] k7jkz: you can just dd it if you're ok with the terminal [06:06] guys you have any idea on how do I remove unity.currently I have enabled autohide option. the unity app bar takes lots of place on the screen.One thing I like about ubuntu is its global menu bar. [06:06] k7jkz, type usb in dash [06:06] k7jkz: sudo dd bs=4M file.iso /dev/sd[letter corresponding to USB drive] [06:07] yikes, i formerly used a program that required no command line [06:07] k7jkz: looks like OerHeks's trick does it, cool, i didn't know about that tool [06:08] k7jkz, unetbootin [06:08] okay, thanks OerHeks i found it by typing usb in dash [06:08] :-/ [06:09] if i can do a thing the easy/dumb way, i will :-) [06:09] Abhijit: if you're experiencing the same issue, would you mind hitting "this bug affects me" on my bug report? :) [06:09] i already did. [06:09] awesome, thanks :) [06:09] k7jkz, you should be using windows then. [06:09] dumb way.

[06:17] SpeicalEd: we installed that on our server box, and the setup tool asks you if you'd like to create a RAID array, it's pretty user-friendly [06:17] Abhijit: just switched from fedora gnome,kde. gnome 3 has gone all the way from classic to a toy [06:17] furkan: Yeah, but it doesnt appear to work with disks larger than 2TB [06:18] furkan: How large were your disks? [06:18] SpeicalEd: well actually we installed 12.04 on our server box, so as long as they didn't remove that in 14.04 [06:18] SpeicalEd: 3TB i believe, but i think you might have a BIOS issue if it's not seeing disks larger than 2TB [06:18] i think that's a limitation on older mobos/BIOSs [06:19] rihbyne, ok. then you should really try elementaryos. [06:19] no thanks I am best on ubuntu. [06:19] furkan: Yeah your off the mark on that, should read up on 2TB sector size limitations [06:19] Can anyone point me in the right direction for installing Ubuntu 14.04 Server on a server with mdadm RAID5 that has 4x3TB HDD's? [06:20] rihbyne, that is ubuntu only. just interface is elementary. not a complete different os.

I'd recommend a virtual machine with an older Ubuntu version if you want to test an older gcc version, since libraries are also affected.

I want some modifiers (xmodmap, specifically - I swap AltGr and left Alt keys) to be applied to my keyboard layout. I have created file with them, but it works only until I switch keyboard layout. May I have modifiers work properly with specific layout? [08:51] i hadnt realized but it did something else as well. ill pastebinit [08:51] It does type in, so if I do "ls{enter}", it does show me a file list, but I can't see where I've typed "ls" if that makes sense. [08:53] MacroMan: try running "reset" [08:53] it should reset your bash session so formatting problems should disappear, if this is the case [08:54] * MacroMan is trying "reset" [08:55] im waiting for it to finish w/e its doing [08:55] i had to install pastebinit [08:55] clear [08:56] and than restart the process, and it just finished and im using the pastebinit command but so far it hasnt done it [08:56] Morgawr, Thanks, that'll do for now. Upon further investigation, it actually seems to be mysql, but only when I pipe from pv. [08:56] I think it's because mysql hides the characters for entering the mysql password, but doesn't unhide them again. [08:56] MacroMan: sometimes some non-printable characters can mess up the output mode of bash/terminal and it starts displaying jumbled stuff etc etc [08:56] oh, that might be a reason [08:56] but yeah, "reset" makes sure it goes back to how it was when you opened it, formatting wise :) [08:57] That's great.

I really need to copy that syslog to another server so i can look at it better (not [09:17] fun reading large logs in a java console). Anyway, scp and rsync dont seem to be available, so how can i get this log file to another server? [09:18] can't write to /smack/access [09:18] ?!

[09:28] it seems it is possible, just need the right ppa [09:28] MACscr, if you can get to another console, then try to install scp from that terminal [09:28] MACscr: got any writable media. Got *any* networking at all? [09:29] leeyaa: if you can find one, go for it, but like i said, not supported here [09:30] squeakytoy: Did you do an "export PATH" in your .profile?

There was a powercut, but we were all on laptops, so no worries. When the power came back and wifi started up again, the sound of my colleague's Macbook pro was somehow being diverted into my Ubuntu laptop. Totally freaked me out and I could not explain it at all.

[09:50] cry0g3n, it basically work with mobile phones. just try to add your dongle in it. [09:51] okay... [09:51] Guest7827, so you are serious about learning programming? find out how to register a nick in freenode, register it, identify to it then come. we can talk then. [09:51] Abhijit: i saw this line, which is great for daily backups, but i need one for hourly as well. day=$(date | awk '{ print $2"-"$3"-"$6}') [09:51] backuppp, ask in #awk [09:52] i wan learn hacking...what i must do first...? [09:53] Guest7827, learn c and python [09:53] i saw this line prints the format i want, but i don't know how to get it in a var date +%H [09:53] backuppp, are you not reading my messages? [09:53] Guest7827: this topic is not suitable for this technical support channel. you were given other channels to discuss that. now you are muted.

I search an application that would allow me to remote desktop (Xorg) Android from my Linux box (Linux->Android), because I absolutely need to help my parents located in other country with their Samsung Galaxy Tab sometimes. [09:57] Abhijit: i do not think you are nice, it was a small question and not related specifically to awk. if i were you i would have just answered, i am sure for you it is not hard, but for me to get the answer is not easy - i allways search google for some time before asking for help. if you do not want to help i will just find a solution myself. but i thought this is a place people help each other [09:57] hmm, so here are some of my syslog errors that are happening because of my preseed finish template. http://pastie.org/pastes/9377395/text?key=vd3vohzuy5xhtxtfuslmhq . I am wondering if maybe i should just say screw it this finish template and just make them puppet modules [09:57] iplon-india, LibreOffice...there are many tools for that....nano will work too....;-) [09:57] cx405 teamviewer? [09:57] mjayk: u kittink? the mac install is fucked up so i have to edit some files [09:57] Abhijit: Only paid [09:57] backuppp, if i knew i would have answered, instead of redirecting you to bash and awk channel. [09:58] backuppp, this channel is for ubuntu help. not bash and awk. [09:58] ok have a nice day [09:58] Abhijit: Besides only on windows/mac. Not for Linux. Tried starting windows version from Wine and it said I need to purchase license for that. Which is stupid. [09:58] cx405, teamviewer works fine here in my ubuntu. it has linux .deb package too .free for personal use. [09:59] Krauzi: did you install hfsprogs? [09:59] Abhijit: Try control an Android phone from your Linux teamviewer. Do that. [09:59] * Abhijit dont have android phone. [10:00] but if you can gift me one .... then i can test cx405 :-p [10:00] Ben64: is there a group called mythtv? in which your usename is added\ [10:01] neo1691: if you have mythtv there is [10:01] ok [10:02] backuppp: Don't be offended. It's nothing wrong with your question. No one here knows the answer, but you got suggestions for other channels to try [10:02] Abhijit: you don't have an android phone, but you answer the question how to control android from linux?..... -______- You can get Android emulator, set it up over VM, then passthrough the network out, then setup some proxy for relocating IP to specific port where your VM emulator recides to skip IP collisions, and then try and understand it does not work this way. [10:02] Hello! I search an application that would allow me to remote desktop (Xorg) Android from my Linux box (Linux->Android), because I absolutely need to help my parents located in other country with their Samsung Galaxy Tab sometimes. [10:03] I added my username to all the groups that you were a part of but still not able to connect to the internet [10:03] cx405: tried teamviewer ? [10:03] cx405: go the other way around. ask for android apps that suit that task and then see what you need on ubuntu to connect to that app [10:05] kll_: there is a lot of apps that allow to control Linux box from Android, but not a single one free for vise-versa. I need free, because I would connect like 1x in month for 10 minutes. Already tried VNC server, but it only allows again, to control Linux from Android. Without jailbreaking nothing is possible, and that means I loose device warranty. And the device is ~800$ [10:06] cx405, so why not use paid apps for a device of 800$? [10:06] cx405: "rooting" would do nothing to help you here [10:06] cx405: just pay and be done with it [10:06] Abhijit: please "help" no help. [10:06] how is any of this ubuntu support? [10:06] its not [10:06] hi room [10:07] Abhijit: please no such "help". [10:07] hi joshua__ [10:07] Ben64, the app should work on ubuntu. [10:07] mjayk: there some applications that allow that, but they DO require rooting of device. [10:07] and there are apps that dont #android if you need any more help with your phone [10:07] function9: Because I do not support proprietary. I am perfectly okay to donate to open project that implements that functionality as usual. [10:08] Abhijit: that doesn't matter, this is an android issue [10:08] thats difference of opinion. [10:09] Ben64: I have ubuntu installed on 3 of 5 my machines. The rest is debian. I need an application to control Android box from Ubuntu. Clearly, this is a Linux application with android backend. [10:09] cx405: again #android for any help with your phone [10:09] not really. cx405 wants to control android from ubuntu. there needs to be an app for that for android, so it is an android issue, QED [10:10] QED indeed [10:11] What is the issue with installing Android SDK and asking in #android or #android-dev (the latter being for app edvelopment)? [10:11] cx405: if your tablet doesnt allow that without rooting and you dont want to do that you have your answer. [10:11] Ben64: this is called ping-ponging and is not professional behavior. It has to do with Ubntu [10:11] Ben64: Ubuntu [10:11] cx405: there is nothing ubuntu could do about that. its an android issue [10:11] It is an Android issue indeed. [10:12] If the SDK tries to query the phone and doesn't get the informtion it needs, it's a question for an Android channel. [10:12] hi [10:12] It /does/ belong here if there are installation issues with the SDK however. [10:12] Hi, jess44. [10:12] hi [10:12] hello [10:12] cx405: (With its installation.) [10:12] k1l_: just wanted to ask if someone knows that. Because from windows this is not a problem. I would heck pay, but one can only control android from windows, not from linux. linux->android version of teamviewer is not available at all. [10:13] cx405: why teamviewer? You want to see graphics live? [10:13] anyone knows easy app to resize and save mass of images? [10:13] *sigh* [10:13] cx405: why do you need to see phone screen from a computer, exactly? [10:13] gry: no, just fix the mailbox or help select application from time to time if my parents get lost. nothing more. [10:14] karab44: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/135477/how-can-i-scale-all-images-in-a-folder-to-the-same-width [10:14] cx405: you should be able to query its app store for remote control applications different than teamviewer itself. === Guest92964 is now known as Vampire0 [10:14] cx405: or use Wine (if you didn't already) with teamviewer. [10:14] karab44, use python and make it urself.... [10:14] cry too long to take === Vampire0 is now known as Guest28997 [10:15] gry: imagine I already did that plus extensive research on google. Hence I waste people time here, because other options have been used. [10:15] cx405: you are really looking at the wrong end of the line. look out for an android app that allows your task in first place. === Guest28997 is now known as Vampire0_ [10:15] imagemagick sounds good [10:15] thank you [10:15] cx405: OK. I see. === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [10:16] по русски говорит кто? [10:16] gry: don't want to pay for a propretary application that may even not work in wine. when I started it, it claimed it needs license but never got past this for a "trial", so even if I purchase, I cant guarantee it will work. I think Google just requires some sort of application signing key for such applications then granting them screen access and control, and this signing costs money, this is why there are free applications that do that...

[10:17] thx u [10:17] cx405: Did you try downloading TeamViewer linux package from its website? They say it's free for private use. [10:18] gry: Teamviewer Linux package does not support remote control of Android phone. [10:18] Lsergej: Добрый день, я на том канале, просто задавайте Ваш вопрос на #ubuntu-tu. [10:18] Lsergej: #ubuntu-ru [10:18] I decided to use phatch for resizing multiple images [10:19] cx405: last time now: ask android how to control the android screen in first place. if you have a working solution come back and ask how to connect to that from ubuntu. [10:20] k1l_: Man, if you have no idea, state that. This isn't hard. Stop ping-ponging please, this is very dirty. You already mentioned that channel with several other members, I am already asking there. === shafox_ is now known as shafox [10:22] cx405: really last time now: you were told several times now that this is not a ubuntu issue. and it will not become an ubuntu issue no matter how often you ask again and again and again. ask the android guys which apps support screen control and come back if you have choosen an app that allows to be connected from ubuntu. [10:22] Could anyone point me to an article that helps describe Ubuntu packaging help when my build process does not* follow the traditional "./configure, make, make install" ? Thank you.

[10:24] I read over the guide a few times [10:24] But I can check the main development article too [10:24] ProfessorKaos64: maybe you get more help for PPAs in #ubuntu-packaging [10:24] oh ok, didn't know that channel. Thank you [10:25] ProfessorKaos64: but read the topic in there. i dont know how active that channel is [10:28] does anyone here know anything about hackintosh? [10:29] jess44 not in this channel and completely offtopic. google is your friend [10:29] lmgtfy.com [10:30] jess44, hackintosh like charles manson on crack - debian just pure stable [10:30] jess44: better ask in the #ubuntu-offtopic channel for not ubuntu support related topics. thanks [10:30] sorry cfhowlett, couldn't resist ;P [10:30] ObrienDave yeah, that was my first thought too, but I'm trying to crack down on sarcasm [10:31] jess44 already got shooed away from offtopic [10:31] and for the other users: please dont advise purele on "google yourself" or lmgtfy. we try to help in here and stay friendly, thanks :) [10:31] jess44 try wikipedia and see the links from there [10:31] i have, i just cant get the kexts to work [10:32] could have been worse, he could have asked about ubuntu :) [10:32] jess44 and it is STILL not a topic for this IRC - sorry [10:34] jess44, ask in the mac forums - sure they would help you... [10:34] can someone help me here to get hashcrack brutforce to work on a salted hash? [10:35] jess44 no. NO. NO! stop asking, we're not helping with hackintosh. [10:35] this isnt hackintosh, dummy [10:35] jess44 insults get you /ignored [10:37] lol....:D [10:37] hmm asks about bruteforce cracks but doesnt cloak his ip.... [10:37] jess44: we dont support password bruteforcing in here. users who really need this have the time to read themselves into the documentation. [10:38] one day hashes from database leaked (ya i know i am skilled) and i want to know how fast somebody can bruteforce them) [10:40] loa, ask an openbsd dev im sure they will find out how fast :) [10:45] hi [10:45] hi [10:45] hay [10:45] is there any BM showing the speed deference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu? [10:46] what will run faster for me [10:46] In /etc/network/interfaces I can only see the first 3 lines "The loopback network interface auto loiface lo inet loopback" <---- what has happened to the rest? [10:46] demoneye I don't know of any online comparison, but the load is definitely lighter in xubuntu. depending on your ram, it can be noticeably different [10:46] http://laurentbel.com/2012/04/04/simple-failover-cluster-on-ubuntu-using-carp/ <--- according to this link, I should have more lines. [10:47] demoneye, the core OS is the same, Xubuntu is a lighter DE, therefore, subjectively, faster [10:47] demoneye the lightest (presumably) fastest would be lubuntu. it's optimized for older, slower hardware and is super light [10:47] or a net install :) [10:47] user123321: u have to add more lines to add ur interface...... [10:47] i have 4 core (core 2 duo) pc with 4 giga ram .... hat will suit me best? [10:48] *core 2 quad [10:48] demoneye ubuntu will run , xubuntu and lubuntu would run faster ...

[10:48] demoneye but test for yourself. install ubuntu then install the DE's xfce4 and lxde. logout, switch DE, login, test [10:48] majaK : Ubuntu . but speed count more for me [10:49] demoneye: I would suggest xubuntu as it's relatively incomplicated (the extra DEs are not much different, mind, though; I tried them in turns and the memory and cpu usage differences were minor) [10:49] hello, I have an issue when mounting optical disks or USB flash disks. When I click on the device in dolphin it says "could not enter folder /media/username/disk/" The only way I can access is if I start dolphin as root. Any idea how to change this so that my user account can get access? [10:49] XFCE is the best lightweight DE [10:49] Is there an easy way, if I am in a folder with many files, to [tab] one at random (or the first one) - instead of getting a list of suggestions? [10:49] cynicallemon ... "best"? debatable ... [10:50] * ObrienDave runs Xubuntu [10:50] cfhowlett, best usable one [10:50] gry, u say no big cpu usage and ram between Ubuntu and Xubuntu ? [10:50] still debatable [10:51] cfhowlett, lxde is not integrated like xfce [10:51] user123321: see this https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=linkto%3A%22NetworkConfiguration%22 [10:51] cynicallemon and that is NOT true. lubuntu is very well integrated with LXDE [10:52] cfhowlett, i dont to do that , install than erase and start testing which faster , i just ant to know from first place :) [10:52] cfhowlett, debatable [10:52] cry0g3n, thanks. [10:52] user123321: if you want to manually connect to Internet then u use this file..... [10:52] user123321: NetworkManager does that for you.... [10:52] cry0g3n, My VM's can already connect to the internet. [10:53] demom !! nobody said "erase" you can easily switch DesktopEnvironments for testing [10:53] user123321: then no need to edit that file.... [10:53] demoneye my suggestion was to iinstall a core system and test the various DE's. If you find one you like, consider that ubuntu flavor [10:53] !flavor | demom [10:53] demoneye, you get all 3 DEs Unity, XFCE, LXDE installed at the same time. when you log on you can select which one you want to run. for testing pruposes [10:53] demom: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity.

[11:30] cfhowlett: I will have to move everything to xubuntu then [11:31] I've raid0 and ive just installed ubuntu and it failed to install grub on my /boot partition. ive done: sudo mount /dev/mapper/isw_ficcheggb_Vol5 /mnt , sudo mount /dev/mapper/isw_ficceggb_Vol3 /mnt/boot , then bind dv, proc and sys , then tried to update-grub in chroot but am getting "unable to resovle host" a list of old OS entries having invalid characters. but then i unmount the boot partition and nothing has changed the old entires a [11:31] re still there. What am i missing? [11:32] Nodd: is this a fakeraid device ? [11:32] cfhowlett: getting xubuntu would be a better choice, won't be it? [11:32] yeah i think [11:32] Nodd: you're just going to have problems with this [11:32] Nodd: I'd advise against doing this [11:32] ^^ [11:33] bolearten for now: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop. at next upgrade, get xubuntu and clean install. my free advice and worth every penny. [11:33] fake raid = disaster iminent [11:33] it was working in fedora but i decided on a change hoping ubuntu had updated itself === Guest70019 is now known as ikonia [11:34] Nodd: even in fedora - I'd advise you against this [11:34] Nodd: you are of course free to ignore this [11:34] cfhowlett: alright :) [11:34] yeah ok, just i never have to grub install/updates fine [11:34] Nodd get yourself a cheap perc6i controller from ebay or amazon [11:34] cant im on a laptop [11:35] uh [11:35] Nodd: no your using raid on a laptop ? [11:36] yeah its designed for ot [11:36] yeah its designed for it [11:36] if it s fake raid it s not designed for it [11:36] it's going to be a crappy onboard on e [11:36] which is fakeraid [11:36] forget the fake raid [11:36] fakeraid 0 + linux = bad call === luckybunny is now known as partyboob [11:37] plus it prolly hgs your cpu [11:37] yeah fakeraid blows [11:37] hogs* [11:37] Nodd survey says = bad idea. but hey, what do we know??? [11:37] Nodd might want to ask ##linux [11:37] well after the last few months with it working fine in fedora i never thought it was that bad [11:37] Nodd: it will work, it's just not a stable platform on a lot of linux situations [11:37] would you drive a chinese mercedes? [11:38] do they exist? [11:38] yeah [11:38] crash test said it s a rolling coffin [11:38] * cfhowlett says, "I'm in Beijing. They do. and I wouldn't." [11:38] you mean a fake mercedes?

Is this a known xrandr bug or something? [12:22] "grub.cfg will be overwritten"... so, how could i update the partition UUID that wrongly set in grub.cfg?? [12:23] !grub2 [12:23] 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 [12:26] I installed squid-deb-proxy on all my *buntu machines and while they appear to work as intended, 'apt-get update' which previously took like 60 seconds now takes on the order of 30-40 minutes. Is that supposed to happen? [12:26] I've got a logitech mouse with horizontal scroll on the wheel, but it doesn't scroll in Google Chrome... any ideas? [12:27] bgardner: no, that's not meant to take 30-40 minutes. [12:28] SirLagz: Any thoughts on how I can fix? The research I've done seemed to implicate 'pipelining' in apt-get, but the documentation seemed to indicate that was fixed many versions ago. [12:28] bgardner: unfortunately not. sorry [12:28] bgardner: I normally just stick with normal squid to do my caching [12:29] vak;~ sudo update-grub [12:29] SirLagz: I actually had squid before, and decided all I was using it for was deb caching so I tore it all out and replaced it with squid-deb-proxy. Buyer's remorse... [12:29] philinux: and UUIDs will be automagically updated?.. [12:30] when i change my network/interfaces file, whats a reliable way to apply those new settings? Its a big pain when you have interface name changes, etc. I need to do this in an automated way, so having to ifdown/ifup everything is a huge pain [12:30] vak;~ as far as I can remember yes [12:31] especially when i have about different interfaces [12:31] er, 7 different interfaces [12:31] bgardner: haha. if it aint broke, don't fix it :P [12:31] vak;~ it regenerates grub.cfg [12:32] SirLagz: No doubt. Lesson learned, I'll back it out and go back to vanilla squid. [12:32] SirLagz: Thanks for the comments [12:32] philinux: worked for me! thanks philinux! [12:33] bgardner: no problems, sorry I couldn't help more [12:33] vak;~ from grub.cfg > It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub [12:33] philinux: and if i want to rename an entry what should i do? [12:35] philinux: i have two boot-entries that are named equally -- not good... [12:35] vak;~ you should never edit grub.cfg. Edit /etc/default/grub or /etc/grub.d then run update-grub [12:35] vak;~ you need to read up on grub2 [12:35] everytime the mouse clicks or scrolls, the disk spins [12:36] philinux: did already. One pass doesn't look enough )) [12:43] I just set swappiness to 10 and my disk is still accessed when the mouse clicks or scrolls === azharh_ is now known as test095 [12:43] scrolling up or down on a web page causes a disk access... what could be wrong? [12:44] kind of applies to any command line but I need to add a proxy to my ubuntu server along with authentication credentials. I modified /etc/environment and added in: http_proxy=http://user:pass@proxy.com:80 -- however my username is active directory based and needs the domain listed. How would that work? [12:44] I cant use user@domain.com because of the @ sign [12:45] but page up/page down does not cause disk access!!!??? [12:46] Xorg goes crazy on the CPU each time the mouse clicks or scrolls === cydrobolt is now known as Cydrobolt [12:51] does vpn disable itself after a certain amount of idle time? [12:51] this mouse problem is burried hopelessly deep in xorg... [12:51] what mouse problem are you experiencing? [12:53] every time the mouse is clicked or scrolls, the disk is accessed, e.g. scrolling up and down in firefox or any app. Page/up/down does not do this. [12:54] Anyone who know's how to fix this: http://pastebin.com/Mzi37sKa [12:55] Foorack, sort of looks like your /ect/sudoers file is missing or corrupt. did you edit it by hand? [12:55] Beldar [12:55] compdoc no... [12:55] compdoc could it be somehting wrong with the file permissions? [12:55] quick question [12:55] is it possible to watch cat towards the end of a file? [12:56] Foorack, that file shouldnt just go missing. something went very wrong [12:56] Foorack, hmmm, if you changed permissions, possibly [12:56] microm, i can't say that I'm experiencing that, are you low on memory by any chance? [12:56] Sasha: tail -f filename? [12:56] compdoc do you know how? [12:56] stevecam depends on your settings - by default, mine did not. [12:56] hmm but it only shows the last few lines [12:57] also does it update itself every few seconds? [12:57] Sasha: it updates as the file is written to. [12:57] ok but how do I make it show more lines? [12:58] Foorack, these are the settings for mine: -r--r----- 1 root root 724 Jul 6 2013 sudoers [12:58] use the command: ls -al [12:58] compdoc -r--r----- 1 root root 901 Jul 11 14:39 /etc/sudoers [12:58] Sasha: add -n 20 (or however many lines you want to see at the start), see man tail for more info [12:58] compdoc what's the 724 (in my case 901) for something? [12:58] cfhowlett, i find that my vpn is coming into these idle moments where it can not wake itself up from im just trying to see if there is something im missing, it will say its connected but will not communicate with anything [12:59] so the file is there and the permissions are right. must mean theres a bad entry in the file [12:59] stevecam just guessing here but ... China? [12:59] cfhowlett, australia, got a cheap modem that cant handle torrents very well [13:00] stevecam better than me. All my torrents are blocked except ubuntu's [13:00] Pici doesn't seem to automatically update though? === Guest17521 is now known as ezhik`_ [13:01] cfhowlett, i dont see how that works [13:01] how do you allow only a specific torrent?

Version 3.3.99.beta1.2.really.3.3.2-0ubuntu2.1 (trusty), package size 5 kB, installed size 46 kB [14:08] Caroga i guess you can set grub's time out to 0 (zero) [14:08] MonkeyDust, that's wat i would like to avoid [14:08] Caroga then what exactly do you want? [14:09] MonkeyDust, on first bootup after a clean installation of ubuntu without dual boot it detects that ubuntu is the only selection and already chooses this. === ariscop_ is now known as ariscop [14:09] But if you press any buttons during this second then it pauses, shows you the menu and waits for input, i now have that. [14:09] Caroga and is there any other system installed? [14:09] nope [14:10] Guest83141, have you seen this ? http://askubuntu.com/questions/33605/can-i-move-the-unity-launcher [14:10] Caroga obviously, it chooses the only system that is available, i'm not getting you [14:10] oke I will try to explain it better [14:11] MonkeyDust, on first boot, you will get a purple-ish screen of Grub, without selection menu and it will instantly boot ubuntu [14:11] How would I quickly find and delete an annoyingly long and complicated line of code from a number of files? (Recursively) [14:12] MonkeyDust, I accidentally pressed a button during this and it now shows the menu [14:12] As it stands it fails because the code I want to search for has a load of characters that need escaping [14:12] Could I put the text in a separate file and have sed refer to it? [14:13] MonkeyDust, it does this now every time, and i would like to reset it to the prior state [14:14] Caroga prior state? frankly, i have never seen a purple menu screen here [14:14] Caroga just the b/w grub menu === MadsRC_ is now known as MadsRC [14:15] MonkeyDust, hmm oke. I will do some more internet searching then, if i found it ill show it to you xD [14:20] rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* did not fix my problem, hash sum mismatch during apt-get update [14:21] what can i do?

Need a fast help here. Fuc*ed up resolution here and I can't change it. [14:40] EmsY: first of all, please watch your language. [14:40] EmsY: please control your language [14:40] EmsY: aside from that: what does "can't change it" mean? Does xrandr not work? [14:41] How would I quickly find and delete an annoyingly long and complicated line of code from a number of files? It's got characters in that would need escaping. Could I load the text from a file to get around that? [14:41] maybe giving us the output of xrandr in a pastebin and a tad bit more information (what gpu, what driver, what monitor) would make it easier to help you. [14:41] Dave404: use sed if the pattern is the same [14:41] ikonia: I can't, the text string contains characters that break the syntax [14:41] Fuchs: I'm really sorry, that's why I put * there. Well, I did a restart, there was an error, I removed monitors.xls, there's no error but resolution didn't change [14:42] break the syntax ? [14:42] what syntax ? [14:42] The error was ehmm, wait, gonna find the error [14:42] EmsY: I don't care much about the error, but the output of xrandr and what gpu and driver would be interesting [14:43] Fuchs, sorry. I'm kinda newbie in ubuntu, what should I do? [14:43] EmsY: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; xrandr | pastebinit should give you a link, give us that [14:43] Fuchs: by the way, error was Could Not Apply The Stored Configuration For Monitors [14:44] EmsY: in addition to that: tell us what graphic card you have and, if you know it, what driver you are using [14:44] ikonia: Well say I use this: grep -rl snippet-of-string somedir/ | xargs sed -i 's/string/replacement-string/g' [14:44] because depending on that we can tell you what logs we need [14:44] Dave404: what's the issue [14:45] ikonia: The string I want to replace is nearly 14,000 characters long [14:45] Dave404: is that longer than the shell will allow ? [14:45] Fuchs: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7780477/ [14:45] ikonia: and it contains /s which signify the end of the string in the syntax [14:45] Dave404: you can change the seperator in sed to be anything you want [14:46] ikonia: I'll give it a shot :D [14:46] Fuchs: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7780482/ [14:46] EmsY: are you sure you did xrandr | pastebinit [14:46] better [14:46] okay, this looks bad [14:46] oh oh [14:46] xrandr /var/log/Xorg.0.log please [14:46] err [14:46] pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log please [14:46] is gnome flashback still supported? [14:46] this [14:47] AlexPortable: supported by who ? [14:47] ubuntu [14:47] like updates n stuff [14:47] AlexPortable: what version of ubuntu [14:47] Fuchs: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7780488/ [14:48] okay, so you have an ati/amd graphic card. Hang on [14:48] yes [14:48] Hey guys, ... got a n0b question. I am installing cyanogen mod on a Nexus device, using my Ubuntu PC. One of the steps in the instructions state: "Make sure the fastboot binary is in your PATH or that you place the recovery image in the same directory as fastboot. " Can I copy over the fastboot to where my recovery image is? I prefer that, rather than dropping the image into the fastboot location [14:48] ikonia: 14.04 [14:48] wait, what ... it also loads the nvidia driver ... this sounds very wrong [14:48] EmsY: lspci | pastebinit [14:49] hi, i'm installing jenkins, and, i just want to understand what "-" means on this line command (that appears twice, first after -O and second after add): wget -q -O - http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/debian/jenkins-ci.org.key | sudo apt-key add - [14:49] Fuchs: I have nvidia [14:49] ikonia: I just get "-bash: !: event not found" [14:49] Is it safe to install virtualbox on a production server?

And pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf as well [14:50] Okay good, I saw openvz but saw I had to change the boot kernal and stuff [14:50] It's only for a single VPS for something small [14:50] Fuchs: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7780496/ [14:50] cuddylier: kvm is already built in, you might want to have a look at that [14:50] Urgent: please help me to connect to wifi in LUbuntu, im in phone now.

[14:51] AlexPortable: for the duration of the release. [14:51] EmsY: well, lovely [14:51] ikonia: So is there a way to get it to check for the text of a file instead? [14:51] Fuchs: what? [14:51] EmsY: your configuration is set for an amd/ati card, while you actually have an nvidia [14:51] ikonia: 5 years right [14:51] Dave404: not sure why that would change anything [14:51] AlexPortable: yes [14:51] Fuchs: haha! [14:52] Fuchs: how to fix it? [14:52] EmsY: did you recently change graphic card or copy some files from an old system or something? [14:52] ikonia: It seemed like a way to solve an input problem [14:52] EmsY: I'd say move the /etc/X11/xorg.conf out of the way, go to system settings -> additional drivers (or similar, no ubuntu at reach) and install the nvidia drivers properly, after that: reboot [14:52] Fuchs: I didn't do nothing, I had an upgrade, ubuntu asked me to restart computer and then the problem started [14:52] EmsY: odd [14:53] is this the help channel [14:53] Dave404: you'll still need to use the shell to pipe the data between commands. [14:53] EmsY: well, rename the /etc/X11/xorg.conf (e.g. with sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.faulty) and then go to the driver manager and make sure it installs the proprietary nvidia drivers for your card [14:53] EmsY: after that it should tell you to reboot. Do so, then it should work [14:54] Ubuntu_User: Sometimes [14:54] Fuchs: ok, thanks [14:54] EmsY: you're welcome [14:55] is this where i can get help [14:55] Ubuntu_User: Try to ask a question [14:55] Ubuntu_User: This is the official Ubuntu support channel.

[18:00] john_doe_jr: you need to download the website to do that [18:00] john_doe_jr: as wget follows the links and it won't know the tree until it follows the links and creates the dynamic content [18:01] hello [18:02] john_doe_jr: does --spider give you something like you need? [18:03] SchrodingersScat: that's an option I didn't even notice [18:03] SchrodingersScat: will that actually work as a tree ? [18:05] I was just thinking maybe you could take output from that and work with it, not sure. [18:05] SchrodingersScat: does that actually hit all pages though ? [18:05] is there a problem called web spider that does this in linux or something? [18:05] I didn't think it did, I thought it only showed the layout [18:06] Unless the page is published a sitemap file somewhere, you don't really have a choice about downloading the pages (even if it doesn't display them to you) [18:06] Hi, does canonical provides internship opportunities? [18:06] Pici: that was my understanding also [18:06] aleo: this is a volunteer channel, not official. [18:06] Hello. How do I add a inet addr to a usb interface? I've done ifconfig usb0 , but it doesn't show up when I do ifconfig usb0. [18:06] aleo: you'd probably need to contact their HR folks about that/ [18:06] (##linux told me to use distro-specific scripts) [18:07] daftykins: sorry I didn't know that. my bad, any idea which is official channel [18:07] Glycan, does ifconfig -a list the interface ? [18:07] yes [18:07] !channels [18:07] A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist and !alis - See also !Guidelines [18:07] aleo: ^ staff maybe [18:08] bert_the_fish: plain ifconfig also [18:08] daftykins: thanks :) [18:09] bert_the_fish: (it's connected to a CDC Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget/Device, AKA a kindle) [18:10] a kindle ? [18:10] thats not a usb network card [18:10] ikonia: it's in usbnetwork mode [18:10] dmesg and lspic call it those names [18:10] isn't it hard coded to their 3g network [18:10] thats how they offered the free 3g service [18:10] yes, and...? [18:11] Glycan: so you won't be able to set an IP address on it if it's hardcoded to their network [18:11] It's not the wireless interface, just the usb one [18:11] what usb one ? [18:11] wireless is turned of on the kindle itself [18:11] there isn't a usb interface on it, it's an Ebook [18:11] Glycan, have you tried running dhcp against it ? [18:11] my laptop's usb interface [18:12] what ??? [18:12] the kindle is an ebook reader, not a network card [18:12] I'm trying to SSH into my kindle over usb [18:12] it doesn't run an ssh server [18:13] no, but I installed one onto it [18:13] bert_the_fish: what do you mean, exactly? [18:13] this is out of my interest range, [18:14] Glycan: you have come in here asking this before. 1) you are modifying your device to do things it's not meant to. 2) This makes it outside of official support we can give here. [18:14] I'm not asking about my kindle, I'm asking about ubuntu [18:14] presumably its a newer onem and you're using an OTG cable ? [18:14] That is, configuring interfaces. [18:15] I don't see how what's on the other end of the cable or what I'm doing with it is relevent. [18:15] bert_the_fish: I don't understand. it's a reletively old kindle (K3, from 2008 or so) [18:16] bert_the_fish: what did you mean about dhcp? [18:16] daftykins: is that alright? [18:16] Sounds like Glycan is trying to use his kindle fire or similar as a network adapter. [18:16] I've not tried this before, but if lsusb is bringing it up as a network interface it sounds interesting. [18:17] Glycan: no [18:17] bert_the_fish: no, he's not [18:17] daftykins: why?? [18:17] s/??/?/g [18:17] bert_the_fish: he's brought up a usb interface on his laptop and trying to put a tcp stack on it to ssh over the usb cable into his kindle device running a hacked firmware with ssh on it [18:18] it's not hacked firmware as such [18:18] Glycan: oh, is it an official firmware from amazon then with an ssh server in it ? [18:18] ikonia: no, it's just not firmware [18:18] So you've got your kindle plugged into the USB socket of your ubuntu box ? [18:18] As a result, it presented you with a usb0 network interface that you're trying to configure. [18:18] Presumably you have intentions of trying to talk to your kindle via an IP stack, use your kindle as a network device. [18:19] to talk to across its 3g network ? [18:19] Glycan: is usb0 present when the kindle is not plugged in [18:19] No; teathering is agaisnt Amazon's TOS, which I am not violating [18:19] tethering* [18:19] ikonia: no [18:19] Glycan: right, so you are trying to configure your amazon kindles interface [18:19] Glycan: which I've already told you doens't work as it's locked [18:20] Glycan: usb0 the kindle device [18:20] yes.... [18:20] right, [18:20] so you can't configure that [18:20] ... [18:20] ..... you can't configure that [18:21] I've managed to get to the sshd login prompt (which would freeze). I don't think we're talking about quite the same thing. [18:21] Hi! Do you know why Ubuntu 13.04 installer, after having followed all steps, keeps doing nothing?? Even # fdisk -l two hours later gives pre-install layout!!! [18:21] tonikasch: 13.04 is EOL, unsupported and dead. [18:21] Hey guys, just installed Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 LTS on an OOOOOOOOOLD machine with a Pentium 4. When you scroll over 'activities' to open the menu the whole machine freezes. Think it's because it's trying to do compositing, etc. any way I can shut that off? [18:22] nevermind, I'll go back to debian, it's far better [18:23] raven00: no idea what version of gnome comes in that, but lubuntu and xubuntu would be best. you'd need a minimum of 1GB RAM for sanity's sake - also, i have just heard that Mint's xfce is lighter than xubuntu. [18:23] Glycan, so you're able to ssh to your kindle but it freezes ? [18:23] try the -v parameter on the ssh command, so how far its getting [18:23] also consider reducing the MTU on the network interface [18:24] bert_the_fish: this is not kindle support. please do not enable this. [18:24] daftykins: surely ssh is within the scope of the channel? [18:25] bert_the_fish: was, now I can't even ping, and I don't know why. [18:25] daftykins I appreciate it. Problem is it's a POS computer (point of sale... although both terms apply lol) and xubuntu and kubuntu kinda look aged, archaic [18:25] raven00: I'm currently using lubuntu on 750KB of RAM, and it works just fine. [18:25] raven00: that's what keep them running. [18:26] Glycan: not to a modded device, no. [18:26] lol [18:26] what about using MATE === step21_ is now known as step21 [18:26] raven00: i'm not familiar with that one's footprint in terms of light/heavy, i'm afraid [18:26] daftykins: but this isn't a question about the modded device at all, it's about the networking/ssh/ip/ifconfig on *ubuntu* [18:27] technically someone may be sharpening a spear for me, for even mentioning Mint - so it may be worth firing by their channel too [18:27] Glycan: i can guarantee you that attempting to argue your point will only make things worse here [18:27] I used to use Mint, it was okay, but then they updated it, and then it got all buggy and sucked. [18:28] glycan I think I'll install mint 11 or something [18:28] daftykins: okay, where would you direct me to seek support for ip configuration, then? [18:28] raven00: tell me how that turns out [18:28] Glycan: i wouldn't know [18:29] anyone know how I can limit what websites it can browse to? It's a computer specifically intended for my company's customers to leave us google reviews [18:29] Glycan: you are trying to configure usb0 - that is the kindle, that won't work [18:29] Glycan: I'm guessing that's why it keeps resetting [18:29] raven00: for low specs, I'd go with Lubuntu, or some older version of *buntu, linux mint is a rebranded version of ubuntu that's also meant to be lighter [18:30] raven00: if you want lightweight look at Lubuntu [18:30] ikonia: i think that the idea is the device has been modified for USB networking by being put into a kind of 'debug mode', however i think that we're still right that it's far beyond the scope of this channel [18:30] all the cool kids use mint. [18:30] daftykins: even in debug it would still be locked unless he's changed the firmware, which he's confirmed he's not changed the firmware, so it's locked, discussion done [18:30] daftykins: yes, that's accurate [18:31] thus it's a modified device. [18:31] ah ok - i didn't read that far :) [18:31] soshould he mod the firmware? [18:31] ikonia: since daftykins has asked me to stop talking about this, I answered you in pm [18:32] how do i view that? [18:32] Technik: I'm too scared of bricking it to actually mess around with firmware [18:32] wait what did you just do [18:32] guys you are off topic, take it elsewhere please. [18:32] i thought you said you ANSERED me [18:32] ok srry daft [18:33] so... if this is xchat help, may you please tell me how to view pms?

I make it all the way through the install process. When I go to reboot into the newly installed VM it boots me back into the intall steps [19:38] nick07 I had that too, here's what you do: install TLP and then sudo service tlp start [19:39] When I first start VBox with the VBoxHeadless --startvm command it hangs and I have to place it in the background. [19:39] how do you disable ipv6 in sendmail? [19:40] I have a feeling this could be the source pf my problem but not sure how to fix this. any ideas [19:40] let me try that [19:41] Say I have an arbitrary number of files ending with .part1, .part2, .part3, and so on. How do I merge all the files ending in .part[some number] into one? [19:41] cat *.part > merged but how do I account for the number at the end? [19:41] is tlp in the resporitory? [19:42] ablegreen: if its .rar unrar makes that on its own [19:42] nick07 this command is useful too, use it before and 1 hour after you started the service watch -n 1 -d sensors [19:42] k1l: Let's say it's not a rar file [19:42] cannot find tlp in softcenter [19:44] nick07 true, i used this site, apologies http://linuxg.net/tlp-the-new-jupiter-install-tlp-on-ubuntu-13-04/ [19:45] tlp started.. i must wait ?

I have a private key file I u sed to connect (from aws). Using the ubuntu terminal to ssh with the -i to the file, it works, from paramiko, it does not [20:07] hey all, 100% new to ubuntu (virtualbox 13.10 32bit fresh install).. anyone have a sec to explain a best practice way to install an app (eclipse)? [20:07] but if I ssh-add and use paramiko, it does work [20:07] what difference would this make? [20:07] andreipath: it worked until you hardware switched it off while running ubuntu? [20:07] apt-get install eclipse [20:08] hi all [20:08] it worked fine untill i went to xubuntu 14.04 from 13.10 [20:08] with the upgrade, my wifi broke [20:08] andreipath: that's one of the approaches I tried but it "appears" to install under /usr/shared/apt-install and is owned by root.. in the GUI, it never has permission to do anything and acts erratically (i.e. cannot download updates, no permission) [20:09] so...someone here Knows "Kernel Panic" Game? [20:09] do sudo apt-get install eclipse [20:09] sinious: put sudo before command [20:09] and enter your password [20:09] bigbastirs: I did [20:10] I just sudo su'd so it'd all be as root, whoami showed root [20:10] sinious: don't it install it from the software center if you want to be able to grab updates for it in-app. Use the downloadable version from eclipse's website and don't install it. [20:10] andreipath: did you try setting up WiFi in settings again [20:11] yes i did [20:11] Hi everyone. Got a cifs-error at boot, that slows down boot time by 40 secs.: CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation [20:11] Does it at least recognize your WiFi device [20:12] Pici: that'll mean I also need to install a Java JRE/JDK.. can I use openJDK for that or do I also need to install that similar to eclipse [20:12] Does it at least recognize your WiFi device andreipath [20:12] Pici: I had previously tried it that way and just export JAVA_PATH to the JDK, but couldn't get eclipse to launch [20:13] sinious: I think you can use openjdk for that. If not, then install one of the other implementations from the repos, or from the following link. [20:13] !java [20:13] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [20:13] thanks for the lin [20:13] *link [20:13] sinious: It is just eclipse itself that cannot be updated using the built-in updater due to the way that permissions work. [20:13] !ubuntu [20:13] Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com [20:14] Pici: right, the permission issue seems to make sense since Ubuntu's built in GUI doesn't seem to let me be root [20:14] thanks for the tips :) [20:15] hello [20:15] Hello guys, I met a problem trying to install ubuntu via daemon tools. I mounted Wubi.iso, clicked on "try ubuntu" or something like that and restarted the Pc as asked. On boot, I have this error message : error : no such device : (here my device code). grub rescue> Your help would be greatly appreciated, thanks a lot ! [20:15] can someone help with a cifs error? [20:16] Neroon: You booting from usb [20:17] bigbastirs: nope. just normal harddisk. And I don't remember ever setting up any network mounts [20:17] Neroon: is it starting? Just the delay? === nick2 is now known as rezzyrez [20:18] Neroon: it's probably checking all your empty usb ports [20:18] bigbastirs: it is starting just fine (with a cifs error), but the 40 secs delay is really starting to annoy me [20:19] since apt-get was used a bunch, is there an easy way to see what has been installed or might be lingering (unused) via apt-get? openJDK and eclipse seemed to have installed 9 million things but autoremove/clean/purge only removed a few (maybe delete is just faster?) [20:19] thinknig of building a mame box with a ubuntu frontend. what is a suggested frond end gui? [20:19] bigbastirs: if that were the case, shouldn't there be as many error messages regarding cifs as there where free usb ports? [20:20] Neroon: do you have network attached storage [20:21] compdoc, what would looking @ the disk utiility do [20:21] sorry i never ended up geting back to you [20:21] bigbastirs: nope. [20:21] Neroon: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently [20:21] tell you if the drive is having problems [20:21] bigbastirs: I'll have a look, thanks [20:21] Evening! I was trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, but unlike Mnajaro, Ubuntu is unable to recognize my wlan card on this laptop. Could it help, if i install Ubuntu alongside Manjaro, THEN Ubuntu would pick the drivers (or whatever the cause is) ? [20:22] it is Broadcom wlan card === h8 is now known as Guest32188 [20:23] Neroon: are you running Windows machines on same router. Even a tablet or cell phone on WiFi sharing may be the causr [20:24] bigbastirs: well, there is another linux machine and sometimes two mobile phones [20:25] bigbastirs: but even then, there must be a way to deactivate my machine trying to mount something, or what else does cifs do? === xet7_ is now known as xet7 [20:25] Neroon: turn them off and see. Maybe just turning off firewall on both machines might fix it [20:26] Hello guys, I met a problem trying to install ubuntu via daemon tools. I mounted Wubi.iso, clicked on "try ubuntu" or something like that and restarted the Pc as asked. On boot, I have this error message : error : no such device : (here my device code). grub rescue> Your help would be greatly appreciated, thanks a lot ! [20:26] Hello? Why Ubuntu does not recognize my Broadcom wlan-card? But other Linux distro does? I'm confused [20:26] hmm, on a new ubuntu install does anyone know why the "Files" app never has permission to extract .gz files? (I know I can use tar, just curious why permissions are always an issue) [20:27] bigbastirs: no can do right now. But isn't there any way to check where exactly my machine is trying to mount via cifs? nothing in fstab so far [20:28] hi all, sometimes when I boot Xubuntu 12.04 it doesnt go to the login manager but just a black screen where pressing keyboard buttons makes wierd symbols appear [20:28] alt-sysrq+K makes the login screen appear though. then it works fine [20:28] Any idea what the issue could be ? Is X failing to start or its the login manager to blame here ? [20:29] Mobile internet using USB, is that a problem with linux? [20:31] thinknig of building a mame box with a ubuntu frontend. what is a suggested frond end gui? [20:33] How can you find progams to install with sudo apt-get "program name" or any direction on how this works ? [20:34] warfox: apt-cache search foo [20:35] awesome thanks :) [20:36] Broadcom wlan, how to get it work? Anyone? [20:37] Hello guys, I met a problem trying to install ubuntu via daemon tools. I mounted Wubi.iso, clicked on "try ubuntu" or something like that and restarted the Pc as asked. On boot, I have this error message : error : no such device : (here my device code). grub rescue> Your help would be greatly appreciated, thanks a lot ! [20:38] Mobile internet using USB, is that a problem with linux? [20:38] Montcalm89: WUBI is a really really bad idea, don't do it. [20:39] tux: If i remember right I had a broadcom, found the fix by searching software center, search broadcom. [20:39] Montcalm89: and no i'm pretty sure you can't use daemon tools to do it even if we would let you use such a nasty program :) [20:39] tux: or the broadcom+model [20:40] LostNva: thanks, but how can i do it, as i don't have a possibility to plug the laptop to normal ethernet? [20:40] Pici: for the latest eclipse, do I really still want JDK6 or can I use 7 or 8? [20:40] tux_: not even temporarily? you really should find a way to make life easy [20:40] sinious: you use whatever java you want to develop for === David_LoKo is now known as Guest40274 [20:41] tux: i guess if ethernet isnt an option borrow a common usb adapter, they work out of the box [20:41] daftykins: what I mean is, what does the eclipse app itself require to run (JRE) [20:41] sinious: their website will say [20:41] Watkins: I promise I won't do it again:) any idea about how to solve the problem ? I can't even start windows now [20:41] No, the ethernet plug seems broken. But for example Manjaro recognizes that Broadcom card right away, i wonder why not Ubuntu? [20:43] tux_: probably down to licensing and the law with what firmware can be shipped with an OS [20:43] daftykins: so it is about not breaking a law? Manjaro then, breaks the law? :/ [20:44] tux_: for some regions in the world, possibly - i'm only guessing really :) [20:44] Montcalm89: hmm, well i wouldn't solve the problem as WUBI is definitely a bad idea... with boot broken, if you power off and back on it might go back to Windows [20:44] tux: you can get it to work, just borrow a common usb wifi adapter, plug it in then search package-manager and software center to setup [20:44] daftykins: i think there should be an option to "break a law" while installing Ubuntu... It would be on user, not Canonical. [20:45] tux_: maybe, sadly discussing that here won't get anywhere :( so it's best just to deal with the here and now :) [20:45] tux:and install hardware jocky if available [20:46] is Canonical aware of this Broadcom issue though? [20:47] Montcalm89: did you try the power off and back on thing i mentioned? [20:48] I have terrible screen tearing on 14.04, I've done many things, messing with enabling vblank, or increase drawing rate to 50, 60, 80 on ccsm, I even installed a lib that I forgot now what I did, so what now ? I use OpenBox [20:48] Nvidia too [20:49] hello why on a mac you can preview dae files and not in ubuntu? [20:50] daftykins: you mean restarting the pc ? [20:51] Stable DSL now...;) [20:51] hi! i have a small home server where i want to change one disk. its /dev/sda. The root partition is on /dev/sdb though. so i try and change it, but the server refuses to boot. what could be the cause? unfortunately i have no monitor so i cant see the terminal:) [20:52] Montcalm89: yeah, with powering off though [20:52] and i commented out /dev/sda in fstab. and the entries for the root and swap partitions use UUID... [20:52] Is there any utility that can make multiboot USB by using direct iso images from usb..? [20:52] MagicSud: http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/dae [20:52] specially for ubuntu + win-7 [20:53] AndChat|268400: yes, pendrivelinux.com [20:53] ugh highlight fail [20:53] ANub: yes, pendrivelinux.com [20:53] "YUMI" [20:54] the problem with YUMI is.....it burns the image.......i want boot from direct iso files [20:55] ANub: look into installing GRUB onto the flash drive and configuring it with a menu to run ISOs. you will need to do this from a Linux host most likely though [20:55] xboot has this functionality and it does the job well......the problem is win-7 after booting gives error" no device drivers found bla bla" [20:56] if anybody else here experiences high CPU usage in Ubuntu 14.04 when dragging/resizing windows or scrolling down a page, I'd appreciate it if you could +1 my bug report to see how widespread it is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1337749 [20:56] Ubuntu bug 1337749 in xorg (Ubuntu) "High CPU usage after resizing a window" [Undecided,Confirmed] [20:56] daftykins: I tried a clear cmos and it didn't solve the problem. [20:56] i have the same issue on 2 totally different systems, so i have a feeling this is widespread but people just haven't noticed it yet [20:57] AndChat|268400: try holding left shift just after BIOS but just before it first reads from the hard disk, to see if you get a menu [20:57] argh! [20:57] G [20:57] daftykins: :-) [20:57] Montcalm89: assuming that was you, try holding left shift just after BIOS but just before it first reads from the hard disk, to see if you get a menu [21:01] hey ubunters, I am trying to install cuda kit 5.5 to a usb live edition of 14.04, and when I check df -h it tells me I have 2+ GB of free space, but when I try to run the install script from nvidia it tells me I don't have enough space as it requires 1.8 GB [21:01] any idea on another way to check available disk space? [21:01] or free up a bunch of space ? [21:02] daftykins: nothing happens. Is it bootmenu you want me to reach ? [21:02] how do I do this: [21:02] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/S3rlXSMg [21:03] Montcalm89: if everything else fails, you might try: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [21:05] Montcalm89: the GRUB boot menu ideally [21:05] Montcalm89: if you have a Windows disc you can just repair the bootloader though [21:05] Neroon: thanks! I hope this works from a USB key because my DVD reader is broken [21:06] Montcalm89: it did here [21:06] jwinterm: you cannot do that in a live session, you'd have to create a persistent USB to make that work [21:06] Neroon: nothing is going to fix WUBI attempt installs ;) [21:06] yes, it is [21:06] sorry for wrong terminology [21:07] I've already installed nvidia proprietary drivers from download script [21:07] daftykins: I wish I had one but I'm on Windows loader... [21:07] daftykins: ;-) [21:07] jwinterm: ah, perhaps run the installer from a second drive to save space? :) [21:08] excellent idea, daftykins :D [21:08] Montcalm89: as in the illegal win7 activator? i see [21:08] will give it a shot in a little whiles [21:09] Montcalm89: your system is pretty much toast right now without a windows disc to fix up that install [21:09] I'm not sure how that even matters, don't they offer the disk images for free online? relying on their precious key system [21:10] SchrodingersScat: you're right, you can download the windows isos (at least until w7) [21:10] SchrodingersScat: how which part matters? [21:11] daftykins: I think he meant the missing windows disc for repairing the boot mess... [21:11] last i checked, which was every second of every day, our policy wasn't to hand out downloads of windows :) [21:11] Neroon: yeah i'd have to disagree with that if that were the case, he's gotta fix Windows somehow [21:12] daftykins: I see... and is boot-repair going to work in my case ? [21:12] daftykins: well, wouldn't he be able to with a full windows dvd (iso)? [21:12] not to fix Windows boot i don't think, no [21:12] Neroon: yeah, that's why i suggested it's needed [21:12] Neroon: yes he can access i think the command line [21:13] daftykins: yes, and SchrodingersScat said, they can be downloaded for free as long as you have a working key [21:13] there's a win8 iso on google docs [21:13] yeah it's not technically legal though [21:13] daftykins: afaik it is... [21:13] and this isn't Windows support so we can't go handing out download links [21:13] daftykins: I thought it was, I agree that this topic isn't support here though [21:14] daftykins: amen to that [21:14] however yes, if i were to say to Montcalm89 to google digital river download links for win7 ISOs that may be posted to my digital life forums i'm sure he or she could find them. [21:14] daftykins: rotfl [21:15] Montcalm89: *hint hint* [21:15] histo, I am trying to scp from remote to local host but it's giving me a blank line as the output [21:15] friends don't let friends WUBI. [21:15] *Hi [21:15] JasonO: can you show us the command you're running? [21:16] daftykins: never understood why someone would try that... [21:16] Montcalm89, Use the bootrepiar app to run just the bootinfo summary not a repair and post the url to it, there is a bootloader called lilo that can be used to fix the windows boot if it is in order, we need to see the the bootinfo summary to confirm the windows boot however [21:16] JasonO: are you adding :. to the end ? [21:16] (after the hostname) [21:16] Sorry I was disconnected. [21:16] Beldar: as i see it, he doesn't get any boot loader at all [21:16] "scp /path/to/file user@hostname:." is a simple example [21:17] AndChat|268400: do you have a working computer you can use right now? [21:17] daftykins: scp -r user@host.com:/home/jason/Backup/u1-downloader/u1-files/Pictures /home/jason/ [21:17] eeee: Yes [21:17] Neroon, Not really concerned how you see it, I want to see the boot script empirical evidence. [21:17] . [21:17] Then I get this: ___ _ _ ____ ___ ___ __ __ _ [21:18] JasonO: the file you're trying to download should be before the hostname [21:18] scp filetoupload user@host.com:/path/in/host/where/it/will/be/saved [21:18] Not uploading. I'm downloading. [21:19] I'm grabbing a folder from remote to local [21:19] daftykins: is there nothing I can write in grub rescue to make it boot correctly ? [21:19] JasonO: huh? [21:20] histo: Sorry, it was a mistake. I meant to type: "Hi" [21:20] JasonO: what command are you typing? [21:20] Montcalm89: even if you could, it'd still be WUBI - which as mentioned before needs to be led out into the back garden and put out of its' misery [21:20] histo: scp [21:20] I'm not sure if it's UFW I tried this on another machine and it worked [21:20] JasonO: the full command please, the one you typed above had no file to be copied [21:21] histo: scp -r jason@host.net:/home/jason/Backup/u1-downloader/u1-files/Pictures /home/jason/ [21:22] Montcalm89: check neosmart.net, they have tiny recovery isos for win, it's like 50-100mb and you can recover the pc [21:22] I'n not planning to use it anymore, I just want to remove it and forget it forever. I'll make a clean ubuntu install after that. [21:22] JasonO: try adding -v option [21:22] JasonO: and pastebin the output [21:23] histo: Can I please PM you the link? [21:23] histo: isn't he still not putting the file to be downloaded ? [21:23] eeee: thanks. I hope it works from a USB key. [21:24] or it can be after the user@host? [21:24] eeee: no i had my terminal resized he has /home/jason as the file [21:24] eeee: using -r it should copy the directory [21:25] JasonO: yeah I don't care. [21:25] oh ok [21:25] daftykins: I copied it off to another usb, but now when I go to /media/ubuntu/otherusb I can't change the permissions of the file to make it executable [21:25] it freed up another GB, but I can't run it now :/ [21:25] hi guys [21:25] i have an issue with grun [21:25] grub* [21:26] i installed 14.04 alongside with windows7 and the only os i can boot is ubuntu [21:27] chmod or sudo chmod 755 cuda_script.run don't change anything [21:27] jwinterm: is it a non-Linux file system? [21:27] i see windows7 when i start my pc but it doesnt start at all [21:27] JasonO: try removing the trailing slash on /home/jason/ <----- [21:27] jwinterm: if it's FAT or NTFS you won't be able to set +x [21:27] yea it's fat [21:27] son of a gunhole [21:27] thx again tho daftykins [21:27] :) [21:28] i tried to fix it with grub rescue but it doesnt do anything [21:28] daftykins: if I buy a dvd reader and use a windows install DVD, will I at least be able to re-install windows ? [21:29] Montcalm89: of course [21:29] sorry not grub rescue , but boot repair [21:29] histo: It didn't work. It still gave me: ___ _ _ ____ ___ ___ __ __ _ [21:30] here is the summary http://paste.ubuntu.com/7782149/ [21:31] Montcalm89: you can fix Windows if you have access to a Windows machine to download and put a windows ISO onto a USB flash drive [21:31] eeee: ok thanks, I'm glad I had my data professional data stored on a separate bed :) [21:31] JasonO: it doesn't even prompt for the password ? [21:32] eeee: I'm using an SSH key === Guest24266 is now known as nesthib [21:32] JasonO: can you ssh normally? [21:32] daftykins: ok thanks, so I use a tool to make a bootable USB drive ? [21:33] histo: Yes [21:34] calma, Did you save the url to the bootinfo summary provided when you use the bootrepair app? [21:34] yeap [21:34] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7782149/ [21:34] JasonO: No idea on that one. try adding -vv [21:35] histo: Alright [21:36] how do i get the process id of the following command? inotifywait -mr /foo | while read dir; do echo $dir; done; … $! doesn’t return back immediately and i’m trying to put this in a startup script [21:36] rsumiwork: ps -ef | grep inotifywait [21:37] calma, Did you resize W7 from the front of the partition, or with the ubuntu installer when you installed ubuntu? [21:37] ikonia: what if there is another inotifywait task? [21:37] then ignore it [21:37] beldar with the ubuntu installer [21:37] rsumiwork: pgrep inotifywait [21:37] rsumiwork: if you want the full command add -f option [21:37] ikonia: i won’t know which one to ignore [21:37] there should only be one doing what you've told it to do [21:37] beldar, with the ubuntu installer [21:37] I'm trying to get vsftpd to work, and I can't for the life of me seem to get it to get past "entering passive mode, list" before timing out. I have everything open on the firewall to the box, can anyone help me to debug this? [21:37] calma: sudo update-grub [21:38] rsumiwork: there should only be one [21:38] i tried that [21:38] rsumiwork: others will be doing other things [21:38] calma, Not a good idea, on occasion this happens, Do you have an image/clone of windows. [21:38] eeee: is there a way to wrap my current command in a variable so i know which to pgrep for? [21:38] ikonia: ^ [21:38] Beldar, nope [21:38] rsumiwork: just grep for inotify and pick the one you need [21:38] yes [21:39] rsumiwork: you know what it's doing so just look for the one doing what you know it's doing [21:39] i am gonna need to format it? [21:39] rsumiwork: pgrep -f "command here and here..." [21:39] it doesn't have to be the full command [21:39] calma: what happens when you try to boot windows? [21:39] just a beep sounds [21:39] calma, Do you have a windows recovery or install disc? the script shows it to be fine as far as the bcd boot. [21:40] If, i fix the mbr via boot repair then, i lose access to ubuntu and grub [21:40] it boots windows directly [21:41] calma: when you try to boot windows from grub what happens? [21:41] When I go to install Wine, I get this: http://i.imgur.com/M8brMQf.png does anyone have any ideas on why? [21:41] histo, i get a beep sound. then it stays at the grub [21:42] calma, bootrepair is not made to repair broken file systems, can you answer my questions? Use nicks of whom you answer to preface posts. [21:42] piovstein: package conflict [21:42] histo: why would Wine conflict with Nvidia? [21:42] still no dice daftykins, I have 2.9 GB free on primary usb and I'm still getting not enough space needs 1.8 GB from cuda installer [21:42] :[ [21:43] calma> it boots windows directly has it since the ubuntu install? [21:43] Beldar, i dont have any windows discs [21:43] jwinterm: weird, i can only imagine it has some installer bug or some extremely impressive compression that'll inflate to immense proportions [21:43] Beldar, its not like that [21:44] calma: looks fine to me no idea what it wouldn't be booting windows from that grub entry [21:44] yea, could be very compressed, someone have me a tar.gz file of boost libraries for windows, and it was 600 MB to download, but 6 GB uncompressed :o [21:44] guess I gotta break out the real disk drives [21:44] or get a 16 or 32 gb usb [21:44] calma> "Beldar, its not like that" It's not like what? Has windows directly booted since the ubuntu install? [21:44] Beldar, now i am on ubuntu i have no access to windows [21:44] thanks for help tho, really appreciate it :) [21:45] "calma> Beldar, now i am on ubuntu i have no access to windows" Be exact here this could mean it does not boot or you can't access it from ubuntu by opening it's partition [21:46] Montcalm89: yep there are Microsoft tools available which will put an ISO on a USB, or YUMI from pendrivelinux.com will also do it [21:46] cannot remount block device /de/md2 read-write, is write-protected -- what can I do? [21:46] Beldar, are you havin fun with me [21:46] ? [21:46] calma, NO trying to get you to give exact info. [21:46] i dont try to access the partition [21:47] piovstein: http://askubuntu.com/questions/449507/nvidia-libopencl1-331-has-to-be-removed-before-installing-wine [21:47] calma, Than say it does not boot, we have to know exactly what you mean, no assumptions. [21:47] histo: a god amongst men. [21:47] thank you [21:48] i thought that was obvious, i said that i have grub2 problem [21:48] sorry [21:48] calma, All it takes is one miss read line to get off into never never land. [21:48] Beldar, kk [21:49] piovstein: looks like a package bug to me. [21:49] Does anyone know the proper syntax for changing the boot order of a VM under VBox Headless? [21:49] calma, So has windows directly booted since the ubuntu install? [21:49] Ploy: when are you receiving that error? [21:49] Yeah, I'll read about it. I might also just boot windows from a large flashdrive [21:49] * piovstein brb [21:49] daftykins, Neroon, eeee: thank you all for your help, now I know for sure I did some real crap by trying Wubi:) [21:49] Beldar, yes [21:50] OneEyedWill: /join #vbox [21:50] histo: thanks [21:50] OneEyedWill: have you asked in their channel? [21:50] calma, Have you run a sudo update-grub in ubuntu to see if you can boot windows? [21:50] daftykins: didn't know it was there [21:50] just joined [21:51] I think I will buy a DVD reader and burn windows on a DVD. [21:51] Beldar, i can boot windows if i restore the mbr via the boot-repair app\ [21:51] Beldar> calma, Have you run a sudo update-grub in ubuntu to see if you can boot windows? [21:52] Beldar, a lot of times [21:52] Montcalm89: you can install windows from usb if you are worried [21:52] Beldar, i will try something new then i will return. give me a sec [21:52] calma, Lately I assume lots of times is to vague. Did windows do a auto chkdsk since the ubuntu reload and you changes the windows partition? [21:53] daftykins: Have asked in #vbox channel and no one is responding or chatting in there [21:53] Beldar: I think he means he runs the fixmbr from the windows side and then can boot windows. [21:53] changed* [21:53] I checked the VBox manual here https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch08.html [21:53] histo, If he had a windows disc yes. [21:53] OneEyedWill: yes patience is required sadly [21:53] haha [21:54] daftykins: indeed [21:55] OneEyedWill: how are you starting the machines?

I've tried restarting the xserver to no avail [23:20] Neroon: remove the boot splash too [23:20] ikonia: which one? /var/log/messages?

[23:25] but its useless in xubuntu [23:26] it only works on windows [23:26] andreipath: Maybe reinstalling the wireless drivers could help [23:26] bigd: sudo pkill lightdm [23:26] the thing is that it works on recovery mode just fine [23:27] andreipath: have you run "sudo rfkill unblock all" ? [23:27] i think that's the command [23:27] i understand hardware switch vs. software, but it doesn't hurt [23:27] did reinstalling drivers, rfkill, hard switch, bios reset [23:27] and so on [23:27] but none worked [23:27] andreipath: What chip is it?
