[01:16] yes i did installed this firewall oerheks [01:16] At worst, he finds out what OS you're running and what client you're using [01:16] i was very extreme then [01:16] CTCP him back :-D [01:16] ...

This would be so I don't have to right click the title bar and select it, but could just press a key combo. [02:30] It doesn't seem to be a shortcut in "System Settings->Keyboard->Shortcuts->Navigation" and I can't find it in compiz config. [02:32] I'm in the default unity. I know KDE has a hotkey for this I could set but I'd rather not switch. [02:34] riobe, You have to right-click on the title bar, when the window is not maximized and select Always on visible workspace [02:35] Can I not map a hotkey to that? [02:35] no idea [02:35] Ah, ok. That's what I'm trying to figure out how to do. [02:44] Is there a functional difference between "rm -r" and "rmdir"?

[02:53] CountryfieldLinux: look for the Unity Tweak Tool I think [02:53] No ivaldi I mean window dodge. A window covers it and it moves out of the way, then reveals when moused over to it or when the window moves out of the way [02:53] I meant IVBaker sorry ivaldi [02:53] IVBaker, like with docks [02:54] like with mac? [02:55] CountryfiedLinux maybe look at: cairo-dock [02:55] I meant add the same functionality to Unity launcher panel [02:55] IVBaker, I'm currently using Docky [02:57] CountryfieldLinux there is the Unity Tweak Tool, you can auto hide the panel, I think that's the closest of what you need that I can find [02:57] the launcher panel* [02:58] Hi, I have a minor issue since a recent update, my terminal doesn't follow the profile I set. It's always background black/purple with white writing [02:58] even if I edited the profile in the preferences [02:59] IVBaker, In that case Docky it is then :P thanks [03:00] CountryfiedLinux: you're welcome [03:01] IVBaker, And set the unity launcher panel to autohide and reveal sensitivity all the way down so I never have to see it pop out. That is unless I visit the dash, which is almost never. [03:02] Oh gotta recommend something here. www.fixubuntu.com if you want your privacy :) [03:03] CountryfiedLinux, Don't post that garbage it can be turned off in the OS. [03:03] I know Beldar but it's a nice shortcut [03:03] CountryfiedLinux, No it's not and offtopic. [03:04] It's definitely Ubuntu related Beldar but I digress.

[03:05] IVBaker, YOur problem will be taken care of by someone who knows, do not demand help. [03:06] -part [03:06] fine [03:06] Well the IP logs are encrypted but encryption is never 100% secure. I agree there's no real reason for alarm though, but just thought that would be helpful for some. And I did say I digress, so let's digress :) [03:06] hi i am trying to make a UEFI bootable ubuntu usb in UBUNTU. I have tried unetbootin and restore disk image no offense to ubuntu but it formats my USB Drive to UDF [03:07] Weird issue IVBaker the terminal here saves settings. [03:07] optrusty_, UEFI is in the iso, it is not the lodaing of the usb [03:07] loading* [03:08] !uefi | optrusty_ might help [03:08] optrusty_ might help: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [03:08] Additional info on my problem, I use a gnome flashback session with ubuntu 14.04 [03:09] Beldar: well i have a different issuse even if there is ""UEFI"" on the iso i cant boot up i even disabled secure boot [03:09] optrusty_, what is can't boot from your point of view? [03:10] Beldar: i shouldve bought windows 7 [03:11] optrusty_, Is this a UEFI computer? W8 can be msdos installed if that is what you have. [03:11] beldar: I said UEFI bootable [03:12] optrusty_, YOU are not making any sense nor answering questions.

Both lighttpd and nginx have webdav modules (and I imagine other servers do too) (although nginx may not have the webdav module in the repos, I don't know) [03:30] trap_exit: Webdav appears to be "a method for allowing remote access to local folders via an HTTP-based web browser." So you need something to serve pages over HTTP, which is a web server. Hence, apache (or others as Flannel has said) [03:31] trap_exit: ^ yup and if you're dealing with setting up a web server probably good to learn a bit about the web server itself if you expect things to be at all secure === blabla is now known as blablabla [03:31] damn it [03:31] apparentlhy I need https too [03:32] * trap_exit curses at omnifocus === blablabla is now known as blabla` [03:32] off to learn how to do https with apache [03:32] trap_exit: it's not too bad [03:32] trap_exit: just a matter of getting/making a certificate and pointing to it in the apache config [03:32] https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-create-a-ssl-certificate-on-apache-for-ubuntu-14-04 here we go [03:34] !lamp [03:34] LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

[04:12] Distributor ID: LinuxMint [04:12] Description: Linux Mint 14 Nadia [04:12] Release: 14 [04:12] Codename: nadia [04:12] !mint | hosiah [04:12] hosiah: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [04:13] Hello [04:13] Um, well, yeah, but when I check the package download progress, the Mint servers are loading but the Unubuntu packages aren't [04:13] hosiah, Might be an eol, but never the less not supported [04:13] Come on, surely this would be a simple yes/n if there's a problem with the server end reported? [04:14] k thanks anyway [04:15] hosiah, If the ubuntu link does not say precise or trusty it is eol [04:15] I had Ubuntu on my laptop's HDD. The one and only OS on it. I accidently deleted the partition that had important Ubuntu stuff on it like root, etc. No I am unable to boot into Ubuntu. I've tried Live booting it via DVD, USB booting it, but it doesn't read them at all. [04:15] can anyone please help me? [04:15] Current Mint version is 17. Seems that your Ubuntu it works on is too old. [04:15] I do not mind losing the data. I just want to boot something, thats all. [04:16] (hosiah) I can update with Ubuntu 14.04 w/o problems. [04:16] Ashinu, are you on a live cd? [04:16] err dvd/usb [04:16] no, now I am on a desktop running windows 8.1. [04:16] k, what is 'eol'? end-of-life? [04:16] can anybody help me with making a boot-able usb stick on mac [04:17] I have also tried live booting both via usb as well dvd things and tools like rescatux, Gpart, Slitaz... but all are ignored. [04:17] Ashinu, all we can do is have you boot a live and run some commands [04:18] like i get to the last step (the sudo command) and i type it in and it asks for my password but it it like frozen and it won't let me type anything [04:18] Beldar, but the thing is... neither the DVD nor the USB are being detected, To make matters worse, I cannot access the BIOS anymore. But the last BIOS config had USB, followed by CD/DVD and then HDD [04:18] this has happened like 3 times [04:20] Ashinu, Make sure the usb and or disc is bootable on another computer, have you changes anything in the bios between the dlete and not being able to access it? [04:20] changed* [04:20] J A M E S F O L E Y [04:20] L #_O_/,#|,#|\ G [04:20] M /,\__..|~O|, O [04:20] A #,/#,#,|#,|# A [04:20] O -----,#,#,|# L [04:20] ROLLS PAST THE GOALIE [04:20] incog you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted [04:20] Beldar, they are bootable. I checked both on a separate desktop as well as another laptop. [04:21] Suppose I disconnect my corrupt harddisk of my laptop, insert a live CD and boot into Ubuntu. Then I connect the corrupted harddisk... will Ubuntu detect it? [04:21] Ashinu, No idea, maybe. [04:22] Beldar, any idea why any of the dvd nor usb are getting detected? [04:23] Ashinu, Not really only uefi setup I have messed with was no problem, a friends. [04:24] Beldar, the way I see it, there's only one way to fix it. That is, to completely format it the right way, which will remove all the corrupt partitions. Do you happen to know some tools that would allow me to do it? Either a tool in Ubuntu or a Linux flavor? [04:24] Ashinu, Try shutting it off remove the battery and the power cord than try again [04:24] Beldar, oh yeah....I haven't tried that... gimme a minute... I'll try that now. [04:25] anyone know why xf86explorer key not work as shortcut? [04:27] -.- [04:28] bentinata, Not every keyboard will have one, not mapped probably [04:29] Beldar, nope... still not booting from it. [04:30] how well does an iphone work with ubuntu nowadays? [04:30] i'd love to be able to sync music using it :/ [04:30] Ashinu, Are you shutting down the computer completely? Did you change the bios before this happened? [04:31] Macer: the fast answer is you can't count on apple [04:31] count with apple* [04:31] Yes, the laptop is shut down completely. I'm positive. And no, I've never changed the BIOS. I've tried updating it eons ago, but it said it was the latest one, so no changes at all to it. [04:31] Beldar, can we map keyboard manually? [04:31] Beldar, xev show it was pressed [04:31] bentinata, somewhat yes. [04:31] xangua: haha [04:31] xangua: well i know it can be mounted nowdays [04:32] but i'm sure the sync is jacked up :? [04:32] :/ [04:32] Beldar, Yes, the laptop is shut down completely. I'm positive. And no, I've never changed the BIOS. I've tried updating it eons ago, but it said it was the latest one, so no changes at all to it. [04:33] Ashinu, If it were me I would look at the manual, and google that computer with the issues, and maybe ask in ##windows, and last call the manufacturer help on getting to the b ios. [04:34] Beldar, okay thanks, will go for research a bit [04:34] Beldar, yes that is the last resort that I have. I just wanted to fix the problem on my own. Because now that my laptop is out of warranty, who knows what they'll charge... [04:34] Ashinu, There may be some key combo you hit at some point which changes this, just guessing really. [04:34] Bedlar, I'm trying the same thing too lol [04:34] Morning :) [04:35] Ashinu, Give it another description here [04:36] the access issues [04:38] Auferstanden aus Ruinen [04:38] Beldar, a question.... what format does a USB have to be, in order to be detected in the BIOS itself? Is it NTFS, exFAT, or FAT32? [04:39] Ashinu, Ubuntu would go on a fat32 [04:39] !gr | OERIAS [04:39] OERIAS: #ubuntu-gr και #kubuntu-gr για Έλληνες χρηστές / #ubuntu-gr kai #kubuntu-gr gia Ellhnes xrhstes [04:40] err OERIAS Can you speak english [04:40] haha [04:40] !ger [04:40] Ashinu: For Floppy-disk emulation mode, no partition-table and FAT12/16; for HDD emulation mode, MBR P.T. + 1 active primary partition (possibly GPT + 1 EFI SP) [04:40] Beldar: !de [04:40] and OERIAS is perfectly capable of speaking English :) [04:41] I thought so [04:41] I speak Canadian ENglish [04:41] I was just sharing a beautiful phrase.

[05:55] 12 what Voidwalkr ? [05:55] Voidwalkr: 12 it's not eof [05:55] Voidwalkr: why do people still run xp? [05:56] ubuntu what else [05:56] i don't know, xp is dead [05:56] i was thinking maybe because when you upgrade the whole thing hits the fan [05:56] lol [05:56] like i upgraded to version 14 from 13 and it won't boot [05:57] now i have to fresh reinstall it [05:57] can't even just reinstall, i have to delete the partition first before it would allow a fresh install from the usb [05:57] which means i had to get into windows to run a partition program [05:58] lol [05:58] Voidwalkr: usually the fix is simply to identify the cause of the boot failure and solve that [05:58] how would i do that? [05:58] i couldn't even get to a terminal session [05:58] just some text and a dead cursor [06:00] Voidwalkr: Identifying that "just some text" would probably help fix the boot issue since it would show at what stage the boot failed === White_Wolf is now known as WhiteWolf|AWAY [06:12] can show you [06:12] (19:46:30) The topic for ##unix is: UNIX(R) and Unix-like operating systems support | Don't ask to ask; just ask | Stay on-topic | Be polite, considerate, and patient | Specify your OS name and version | No bots [06:12] (19:46:30) Topic for ##unix set by Snader_LB at 15:48:41 on 29-06-14 [06:12] (19:46:33) Welcome to ##unix -- support channel for UNIX(R) and Unix-like operating systems.

[07:55] browsing with lynx is a pain [07:55] izabera: try elinks [07:55] it's not a realistic solution [07:55] websites expect proper browsers these days [07:58] Ex-Chat [08:01] i search PID of imagemagick with ps -ef | grep ImageMagick but i kill PID but don't close imagemagick [08:01] ubunt: what is that grep actually returning [08:02] aukun 31392 31357 0 09:58 pts/4 00:00:00 grep --color=auto ImageMagick [08:02] yeah, thats the grep command you're trying to kill, which had already ended by the time you see that [08:03] ubunt, that would be the search /grep command you just ran [08:03] yes [08:04] i want a window with imagemagick open but i don't find the PID for kill this [08:05] i have a window with imagemagick open but i don't find the PID for kill this [08:05] ubunt: can you not hit the close button on the window? [08:05] no don't close [08:06] i hit but don't close imagemagick [08:06] the problem is "imagemagick" isn't an executable and cannot be grepped as such. it really depends on what executable you have running [08:06] you could use xkill, and just click in the imagemagick window [08:08] xkill yes but i don't know how is the PID imagemagick [08:08] why do you need the pid if you can use xkill [08:08] hi [08:09] i put in terminal xkill ImageMagick and need PID [08:10] no, just "xkill" then click in the imagemagick window [08:10] ok killed [08:10] why do you use imagemagick? [08:13] hey, i'm trying to SSH into a remote server through the file explorer, which is working fine [08:14] but i can't access specific directories like i can through the console, ie. i can SSH into the home directory for the user, which is fine, but i can't access /var/www/... === tcpman is now known as Guest22711 [08:14] is there a way to navigate to other dirs like that through the file explorer?

[08:15] yes, i use cd /var/www/... to get there in the shell [08:15] but im talking about the file explorer (GUI) [08:15] the files explorer cannot do that [08:15] eracoon: systemd ? [08:15] use thunar instead [08:16] is thunar an extension of files explorer? [08:16] no [08:16] or is it like a FTP client? [08:16] !thunar | prohobo, [08:16] prohobo,: thunar is a file manager for !Xfce. It is a lightweight alternative to !Nautilus and is quite similar. More info at: http://thunar.xfce.org/index.html - Want to Replace Nautilus with Thunar? See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease [08:17] or use pcmanfm it is an other file manager [08:17] thanks [08:17] blackyboy > sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0 [08:17] where eth0 is your interface, change accordingly [08:18] hello friends!

[08:22] Hi, I hsve just installed ubuntu 14.04 and there is problem. I am using two monitors and the resolution of the left monitor is not good. and, the display setting doesn't recognizes it. Do you know how can I fix this? [08:23] volkan: try pressing the button on the laptop [08:23] eeee, its not a laptop [08:24] volkan: open a terminal and type xrandr [08:24] eeee, http://pastie.org/9488358 [08:25] what's the resolution that you want? [08:25] eeee, 1920x1080 [08:26] xrandr --newmode "1920x1080" 172.80 1920 2040 2248 2576 1080 1081 1084 1118 -HSync +Vsync [08:26] blackyboy: I took that info from askubuntu: http://askubuntu.com/questions/441619/how-to-successfully-restart-a-network-without-reboot-over-ssh [08:27] additional drivers installed/ [08:27] ? [08:27] eeee, http://pastie.org/9488365 [08:30] guest683, did you say to me? [08:30] y [08:31] volkan do you have installed them? [08:31] volkan: I think he means did you check the box when installing ubuntu that said "Install third party software" [08:31] guest683, AcousticDan: http://i.imgur.com/HMZ6Rg2.png [08:32] when they say open it in the "unity dash" what are they talking about? [08:32] volkan: xrandr --output DVI-I-0 --same-as DVI-D-0 [08:32] nvidia-311-update maybe [08:33] eeee, Didnt work, === TheRealHades is now known as Guest39388 [08:34] guest683, E: Unable to locate package nvidia-311-update [08:35] installed linux-firmware-nonfree? [08:35] guest683, maybe this can help: http://i.imgur.com/zo1d1Kd.png [08:36] guest683, I only installed nvidia-331 [08:36] volkan: can you not change the configuration? [08:37] AcousticDan, I can change, there are 3 options: Disabled, X Screen 0 and New Xscreen [08:38] the resolution part... [08:38] Ben64, there are only 640x and 320x [08:38] what screen is it, and how is it connected [08:39] Ben64, same as the other monitor [08:40] There is a small device in the computer I guess it converts something to VGA [08:40] I don't know what exactly it is [08:40] you're going to need to be a lot more specific [08:41] explain which monitors they are and how they are connected to the card [08:42] Ben64, they are both Philips 226V4 and connected via VGA [08:42] both vga? [08:43] or one with vga and other dvi /hdmi [08:43] yes one them is directly connected and the other is connected via a small converter [08:43] dvi to vga [08:43] which one is not functioning properly [08:43] ah sorry [08:44] does monitor 2 not have dvi inputs? [08:44] why not dvi directly? [08:44] 1. monitor = vga [08:44] 2. monitor = dvi [08:44] so remove converter [08:44] he can't [08:44] why? [08:45] then he can't use his second monitor (I'm assuming) [08:45] hello folk! [08:45] it's vga [08:45] gpu has dvi+vga output? [08:45] uhhh, not a GTX760 [08:45] i have a 560 and it has 2dvi and 1hdmi [08:45] one screen with vga other with dvi [08:46] i use 1 dvi and 1 hdmi [08:46] I am trying to get acpi shutdown to work on a libvirt VM... as far as I can tell the event doesn't occur ... acpid is running ... what could be wrong? [08:47] looks like GTX760s have .... 1xHDMI 1xDP 1xDVI-I 1xDVI-D, which would explain why you can't have two VGA monitors [08:47] AcousticDan, guest683, My GPU: GeForce GTX 760/PCIe/SSE2 [08:47] yeah, I saw volkan [08:47] in the images you sent [08:48] I was explaining to guest, that if you have a vga monitor, you need that dvi converter to plug into your card [08:48] so the solution is - drop VGA altogether. its old, lame, and not good. Also, it is bad. [08:48] if you're not playing games, try using the X.Org X server in additional drivers, see if that works [08:48] if you haven't already [08:49] does anyone have a Thinkpad T440s under 14.04? [08:49] I just can't make the wifi work [08:49] AcousticDan: won't help [08:49] so the mon doesnt support hdmi or dvi or dp? [08:50] AcousticDan, Can you explain a bit more? [08:50] How can I install? [08:51] volkan: the card does not physically support multiple analog connections, its not going to work. use hdmi or displayport or dvi [08:51] rim-k: What does lspci say about it? [08:51] rim-k looks like bad news... as of feb 24th that is. http://askubuntu.com/questions/425604/there-is-a-known-bug-for-the-wireless-card-for-my-lenovo-thinkpad-t440-running-1 [08:52] 03:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8192EE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter [08:52] cc vfw [08:53] volkan, what are the model numbers of your monitors? [08:54] Ok, I learnt. It has one diigital dvi and one analog dvi. I use a small device to convert the analog dvi to cGA. AcousticDan, Ben64 [08:54] VGA* [08:55] rim-k: Is this a fresh install of 14.04? [08:55] vfw: yes [08:55] I took the Ubuntu Gnome one [08:56] rim-k: Fully updated? [08:56] yes [09:03] rim-k: What kernel are you on? uname -r [09:03] rim-k: Are you 64 bit?

[09:17] vfw: the apple devices and linux are just not compatible [09:17] not on topic here, can continue that in #ubuntu-offtopic though [09:18] hi. my 14.04 desktop is currently showing the Software updater icon as if it's running. If i click it however there is no window shown. There is a process called upate-manager running. And a process called update-notifier. But like i say, no window to be found. :( Is that normal behaviour?

I'm not an apple fan either, wouldn't own one myself, I don't want to use Itunes or any of that stuff. We are a lot better off with android for sure. [09:20] i quit it and restarted it.. that seems to have fixed it. [09:20] cu [09:21] was Daghdha on ubuntu or windows? [09:22] popey: i would but because of this fact an "ancient" nexus4 is too overpriced [09:22] cynicallemon: 14.04 desktop sounds a lot like ubuntu [09:22] Macer: ok, wait for an ubuntu phone later this year then ☻ [09:22] yeah heh [09:23] but then again ill believe it when i see it [09:23] but im game if one comes out [09:23] vfw: yeah, just that he said he fixed it by a reboot...

(/etc/init.d/.. & service foo bar do not work anymore :/ ..) [11:03] what do you mean by "do not work anymore"? [11:04] popl: the commands "/etc/init.d/networking restrat" and "service networking restart" simply do nothing. [11:04] what's the returned code? [11:04] wait, do you use network manager? [11:04] ktosiek: server installation [11:04] so, no network manager [11:05] phaidros: they don't give you an error message or anything at all? [11:05] popl: no error message at all for init.d/script. [11:05] sounds sensible, then do you have any non-manual interfaces in /etc/network/interfaces? [11:05] popl: for service command i get: stop: Job failed while stopping / start: Job is already running: networking [11:06] ktosiek: ah, manual keyword triggers something .. what was that about? [11:06] interfaces marked with "manual" are not managed by init script [11:06] ktosiek: lo is uninteresting, and eth0 is: iface eth0 inet static [11:06] so, no manual [11:06] hm, thats not that [11:07] the heck, networking should be restartable without wooes .. it is 2nd decade od 21st century .. lol :) [11:08] can you stop eth0 with ip? [11:08] ktosiek: not wanna try, I am in screen :D [11:08] While installing ubuntu I accidentally chose "install security upgrades automatically". What exactly does that do? How do I switch it off? [11:08] so, I wanna restart [11:08] phaidros: :-D [11:09] ktosiek: tho, I believe that should work, ip is a different layer [11:09] remote network configuration? mmm, lovely :-P [11:09] ktosiek: sure :D [11:09] then again, I have virt-manager access as well .. I try. wait a sec [11:10] AFAICT it creates /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades, but does it do anything else?

[11:11] ok, and ifup eth0? [11:11] ktosiek: tho, that one with "up" doesnot trigger the re-reading of network/interfaces. [11:11] * ktosiek hopes you didn't accidentaly fix it [11:11] right, as the "ip" command is not debian-specific :-) [11:12] ifup/ifdown are the ones that use /etc/network/interfaces [11:12] ktosiek: ifup anserser: interface eth0 already configured ..

[11:13] just use network manager [11:13] thats what it's there for [11:13] shouldn't be messing with the interfaces file [11:13] ikonia: NM is hard to manage [11:13] ktosiek: this is my one: simple as anything: http://codepad.org/69RWGV2k [11:13] ktosiek: no it's not [11:13] barely manageable, I'd say [11:13] it's a simple gui with text boxes to fill in [11:14] ikonia: well, how can I integrate it with Ansible? [11:14] ikonia: network manager is *never* been intended to use on servers, as well as it is not reliable there ..!! [11:14] (hint: we are talking about server environment ;-)) [11:14] phaidros: it is intended to use on servers [11:14] although I can see why you would not to [11:14] ikonia: rly? it is not installed with a basic server install .. tell me why? [11:14] not want to [11:14] phaidros: looks ok [11:15] phaidros: it is installed on the server install, it depends on the distro [11:15] henk: try dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades [11:15] ikonia: maybe nm got better in the last years, but in the beginning it was unbearable on servers .. [11:15] ikonia: hm, maybe I did debootstrab, so can't remember :/ [11:16] geirha: Thanks, that did it [11:16] ikonia: then again, nm is yet the only useful method to restart networking via ssh? [11:16] sounds like a regression for me .. [11:16] phaidros: I have no idea what you are rambling about [11:17] phaidros: it should work [11:17] but wait a minute [11:17] what's the environment? Are you in a container by any chance? [11:17] ok, ogra from #ubuntu-server suggested: ifdown/ifup .. that works somehow [11:17] ktosiek: kvm [11:18] tho, ifdown rambles about : RTNETLINK: no such process, but then ifup brings eth0 up with freshly read network/interfaces. [11:18] * subhojit777 is away: AFK [11:19] * subhojit777 is away: break [11:19] ktosiek, ikonia: thanks! tho I am not happy with the state of affairs yet :) [11:19] ohh, you broke the bug :-< [11:20] now we'll never know :-< [11:20] :-P [11:23] ktosiek: #ubuntu-server states: never use /etc/init.d/networking directly. it was not (never) intended for direct use. [11:23] even with service networking {start,stop}? [11:25] ktosiek: trying to find that out atm :) [11:26] ktosiek: 13:20 < ogra_> phaidros, calling that upstart job is like if you would remove and re-add the engine of your car every time you want to switch gears baffle [11:26] killing the networking service will kill a lot more ... dbus, firewall setups etc [11:27] phaidros: I'm on that channel too, now [11:27] thanks for showing it to me :-) [11:31] sharing folders using Virtualbox.

I am interested in a program that backups my files by partitioning them into chunks and then saving them to an external disk. [12:18] what's a nice program that does this? [12:18] partitioning? as in split archives? [12:19] if that's what you mean, you should try duplicity/duply [12:19] I don't know what "split archives" is. [12:19] I will check those out. [12:19] I just want it to group my files into chunks and then save those chunks to disk. [12:19] well instead of one big archive file you get 100mb parts [12:19] I don't want it to zip the chunks or do anything but save them to disk and remember what the chunks were. [12:20] that's not what I want. [12:20] ? so just copy them? [12:20] yes. [12:20] enter Backup in the ubuntu store [12:20] i meant, that's you solution. just copy them === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa [12:20] *your [12:20] typ: incredibly time consuming for an operation that would easily be automated. [12:21] then save the commands you used to copy and put them in a script [12:21] I also want the program to be able to search through the chunks, look for updated files, and then update those specifically. [12:21] your solution for a "backup" is incredibly bad too [12:21] Deja Dup is a nice saver [12:21] it is not. [12:21] well then maybe i misunderstood what you want [12:21] Xer_: thanks, I will look at this. [12:22] ok [12:23] typ: it's simple. I have a storage unit, I just want a program that will take everything on this unit, fill up external drives until everything is backed up, keep the overview of where things are saved, and then let me quickly update new files as they change. [12:23] ph1ll1p, in 100mb chunks?? [12:24] cfhowlett: no. [12:25] i don't know of any software that would split it on different harddrives [12:25] it also sounds more like an archive than a backup [12:25] well, archive then. [12:25] duply can restore a specific folder from your backup [12:26] the problem is that the storage unit I am backing up is on a closed network. [12:26] but you cant search it by hand [12:26] and it also just backups to a single location [12:26] and I need a backup that I can store off-site. [12:27] external disks are relatively plentiful and inexpensive so I use that, but I'd rather not manually copy the files and it would be nice to be able to back up incrementally. [12:27] sorry. I should have mentioned the situation in the beginning. [12:27] yes duply does all that, but i don't know of any automated solution that would split it on different drives [12:27] you would need to raid them [12:27] I am unable to start the Live CD. [12:27] or script something yourself [12:28] It says losetup cannot find a free device. [12:28] or maybe get a layer between it, e.g. lafs [12:28] !md5sum | yecril71pl, 1. verify the ISO you downloaded. 2. verify the CD [12:28] yecril71pl, 1. verify the ISO you downloaded. 2. verify the CD: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [12:28] but you won't be able to choose where something goes [12:29] The ISO worked all right until I created two logical volumes. [12:29] And then it stopped working. [12:29] The loop map is weird, like /dev/sdaX is connected via /dev/loopY [12:29] I guess I can script something. thought there might be some fancy robust tool. [12:29] I have a problem, i have type sudo apt-get upgrade, but ubuntu information say, i have !4.04 LTS [12:29] It does not make any sense to me [12:30] So it kicks me out to initramfs and I cannot do anything to get out. [12:30] ph1ll1p: most probably not [12:31] Xer_: what do you expect? [12:31] rsync is great for incremental backups, but is not logical layer like dd or something [12:31] it also does not store different versions [12:31] Xer_, apt-upgrade does nothing. apt-get dist-upgrade will bring all currently installed distro files to new latest available repo versions [12:31] I have a problem, i entered sudo apt-get upgrade, but the ubuntu information dialog say i have 14.04 LTS [12:31] or split your content up on diff disks [12:32] !find libmysql-ruby [12:32] Xer_, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [12:32] Package/file libmysql-ruby does not exist in trusty [12:32] ok [12:32] yecril71pl, this is LVM?? [12:32] ph1ll1p, you can use rsync across a network or to external discs [12:32] metaspike: he has multiple single external drives [12:32] Xer_: we have a german channel at #ubuntu-de if you would like to talk in german [12:33] and want's to choose which content goes where [12:33] Am i supposed to report to the developers, that i am missing this file for my software compilation. [12:33] oh wow... a bunch of rsync scripts? :) [12:33] ph1ll1p: you could make different backup jobs for different folder to different locations [12:33] metaspike: it only stores one version [12:34] i think he wants backup, not mirror [12:34] typ, is cloud backup not an option?? [12:34] i don't know... ph1ll1p? [12:36] typ: this could be a solution. I would have to manually make sure new folders get backed up, but I guess letting me do incremental backups is worth it. [12:38] rsync b1 > b2; rsync src > b1; incrimental mirroring with rsync? [12:38] metaspike: rsync = mirror != backup [12:40] it's a backup if you mirrior backup 1 to backup 2 before mirroring the source with backup 1 [12:40] backup 2 becomes the backup [12:41] Does sort have an option to take into account human-readable (-h) output from du? I tried "du -hs ./* | sort -rn", but it only sorts numerically, not G > M > K, etc. [12:41] Hey guys, can someone point my to the correct place in launchpad to file a bug against the ubuntu.com website?

[14:17] s4ge: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [14:17] ActionParsnip, i've just noticed, that Spotify playbacks normally [14:17] grant_: what is the ouput of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; apt-cache policy wine1.6 [14:18] s4ge: then it sounds like your application [14:18] hum... ok.. but I don't have any way to copy paste all the packages list... [14:18] I mean to be able to apt-get remove all the depends... [14:18] booh: rdespends will let you do that, you can awk and grep to carve out package names [14:19] booh: if you want to just get a text based OS, just remove xorg and the others will fail deps and be marked for removal [14:19] ActionParsnip, here's the output, thanks http://paste.ubuntu.com/8098346/ [14:19] ActionParsnip, the test sound feature of ubuntu itself outputs the destroyed sound also. [14:19] grant_: are there any bugs reported? [14:19] The cat output seems to be empty. [14:19] s4ge: try: lsb_release -c [14:20] ActionParsnip, I'm pretty noob, where would I check that? [14:20] grant_: http://launchpad.net [14:20] how do I remove a partially installed package that I downloaded? [14:20] ActionParsnip, Codename: trusty [14:20] downloaded not from the repositories [14:21] s4ge: all I can suggest is log off and on, if spotify is ok then the sound sub-system is operational [14:21] causative: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename [14:21] ActionParsnip, yeah, it's really strange. I've already restarted my system. Still the same. I will try it again BEFORE I launch skype. [14:21] ActionParsnip, it says E: The package dropbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it [14:22] ActionParsnip, did a search for wine 1.6 ubuntu 14.04 but i'm not seeing anything that appears relevant [14:22] It removed only xserver-xorg related... [14:22] I still have the package on my hard disk, but it's not from a repository [14:22] vbox website advises to not use the repos to install vbox anyone care to make me believe otherwise? [14:22] TimeVirus, see dropbox for why. news to me [14:23] ok [14:23] is there a way to point apt at the package on my hard disk, that would let it remove the package? [14:24] would you guys suggest me a small+cheap usb dongle for my netbook running xubuntu 13.10 [14:24] wifi dongle that is [14:24] not usb :D [14:25] apt-get doesn't even work with -m [14:26] TimeVirus, because official repos lag behind current stable release for Vbox [14:26] ok thats srta what i thought thx [14:26] TimeVirus: sudo apt-get install virtualbox done [14:26] kk [14:28] booh: use wget http://eeee.bshellz.net/eeee [14:28] that's the list of unity related stuff [14:28] yes!!! :) :) ok, don't know why but I didn't have the i386 repositories, as soon as they were added wine started installing :) :) [14:28] booh: for i in `cat eeee`; do apt-get remove $i; done [14:29] then use that [14:29] hi my hdd is 750 gb, however ubuntu shows as 712 why is that? [14:29] <- thinking how many other problems that could have caused... [14:29] okay I fixed it, ActionParsnip the fix was to say dpkg -i /path/to/my.deb [14:30] which reinstalled it and now apt-get will install other packages again [14:31] ActionParsnip, still the same after reboot without launching any "other" audio application. The Spotify playback through the headphones is also still correct, on the speaker output both devices running as expected. [14:31] This is strange... [14:31] pasbara, because ubuntu uses the proper binary interpretation of GB [14:31] booh: apt-get purge is better i guess [14:32] Normally, downloaded packages are kept in /var/cache/apt/archives. You can manually delete partially downloaded package there. [14:32] anyone use crashplan?

[15:02] there is like 100 gb of videos, but other space is used by nothing [15:02] sougata you need a router between those 2 networks--surely you know that, yes?

[15:10] ronaldsmazitis;~ see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoverLostDiskSpace [15:10] that kindof thing would require application layer config I would think sougata [15:10] I found /root/.local/share/Trash contains 400 GB [15:10] Akiva-Thinkpad: try /memoserv help [15:11] sorry sougata I have to run for now [15:11] heh [15:11] :'( [15:11] would like to help you out though [15:11] darn lol === sergio_ is now known as Guest53316 === Guest53316 is now known as ivan43 === fred_ is now known as Guest95146 [15:15] is there a way to put your home folder on a different partition?

[15:18] flyingfisch2: that's if you have an already installed ubuntu [15:18] if you're fresh installing, and don [15:18] ok [15:18] sorry, don't have a /home you want to copy [15:18] just make a /home partition during the installation [15:19] oh also, is there a guide for installing ubuntu without external media in ubuntu instead of windows?

But now I am trying xubuntu [15:26] !info palaver [15:26] Package palaver does not exist in trusty [15:26] Hm. [15:26] But I have a problem with xubuntu on my laptop [15:26] I can't turn it off or suspend it [15:26] ! [15:26] Linux Speech Recognition [15:26] genii, found it, some sort of speech recognition [15:27] ubunt it is not in the repository's how did you install it? [15:27] how big should I make the /home partition? can i change it later with gparted, or is it like a boot partition where changing the begin point can break things? [15:27] https://github.com/JamezQ/Palaver [15:27] ubunt: http://www.muktware.com/2013/03/how-to-install-linux-speech-recognition-in-ubuntu/4158 [15:27] flyingfisch2: try to set it right first time [15:27] I tested 2 different nvidia drivers: 1. NVidia Properietary 2. Nouveau But this problem persists with both drivers [15:27] flyingfisch2: think about all the userdata and config data you're going to keep in there [15:28] Any idea? [15:28] ikonia: right now it is 20GB [15:28] my current home folder [15:28] i am a web developer [15:28] and i save all my web dev stuff in my home directory [15:28] flyingfisch2: try to apply some thought and planning then [15:28] which means images, etc. [15:28] so would 60GB be a good bet? [15:29] i have a 750GB HDD [15:29] ubunt, ActionParsnip has a better howto, even on that page it says "Please keep in mind that it’s in early stage of development. " and "Now, let us know if you were manage to get it to work." [15:29] yes i put the way for install palaver but when i put ctrl+L for run hotkey don't workit [15:30] " This palaver uses the Google API" not sure it the development uses some extra stuff [15:31] it-if [15:32] Ehhhm [15:32] ubunt, ah, read this, the maker says it is a dead project > https://github.com/JamezQ/Palaver/issues/104 [15:32] Am I on a right channel? [15:33] i want some similar that dragon speaker [15:33] but for ubuntu-linux [15:34] Hello [15:34] Do you hear me? [15:34] ubunt sorry buddy, can't help you with this. [15:34] digitsm: yes we hear you [15:34] cant wait for ubuntu windows edition [15:35] TaZeR: what's that? [15:35] its ubuntu for windows [15:35] and that's a thing? [15:35] ActionParsnip: Oh! I thought I entered a wrong password for my nickname in IRC [15:35] it installs like a program and integrates like a virtual machine seamless mode [15:35] TaZeR: so, virtualbox then... [15:36] TaZeR: yeah, virtualbox does that [15:36] yea pretty much [15:36] TaZeR: so why wait, when its already achieved [15:36] ActionParsnip: I can't shut down my xubuntu [15:36] because its going to be special [15:36] I guess it's not because of VGA driver [15:37] TaZeR: its already a thing, there is no "going to" about it [15:37] But I have no other idea [15:37] digitsm: if you run: sudo shutdown -h now does it turn off [15:37] but people dont know wtf virtualbox is, now they will install ubuntu the way they know how on windows [15:37] ActionParsnip: Wait, I will test it now and then report you the result [15:38] TaZeR: and they will know even more about this ficticios "ubuntu for windows" more huh? === veronica is now known as Guest39482 [15:38] i assume [15:38] TaZeR: exactly, you are waffling [15:39] its because i need tina [15:39] ActionParsnip, It doesn't shutdown! It says: "shutdown: time expected" [15:39] Can anyone please help me with Wine Anti-aliasing? [15:40] ActionParsnip, Do you suggest to try "sudo halt" instead? [15:40] digilink: sudo shutdown -h now [15:40] TaZeR: what's tina [15:41] hello === phuh is now known as Sunsetting [15:41] christina a magical lady of the evening [15:42] is there any one from egypt ? [15:42] YOUR ARE NOT WORTHY!!! [15:42] !ot | TaZeR [15:42] TaZeR: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [15:42] recieving tina into your heart is the most rewarding expiernece you can have [15:42] your from egypt ?? [15:43] its like jesus x1000 [15:43] Jesus is my LORD [15:43] :) [15:43] chuck norris [15:43] omar_, this is an ubuntu support channel, so you want the egyptian ubuntu channel? [15:43] TaZeR: Please remain on topic for this channel, or risk being removed. [15:43] yes !!

[15:47] ActionParsnip: I am back [15:47] And the result [15:48] I could not shutdown my xubuntu even by command "sudo halt" [15:48] Gatis: sudo aptitude -P remove ~nkde [15:48] digitsm, sounds like an ACPI setting issue in your bios. [15:48] It took forever to shutdown and I had to hold power button for 3secs to shutdown my laptop manually [15:48] genii, what does "~nkde" mean? [15:49] When I press shutdown button, it also takes forever to shutdown [15:49] digitsm: then its a permissions thing. [15:49] Gatis: http://algebraicthunk.net/~dburrows/projects/aptitude/doc/en/ch02s03s02.html [15:49] OerHeks, But I had LMDE before and I had no problem with shutting down [15:49] digitsm: what is the output of: groups [15:49] genii, alright thanks === amphibian is now known as Guest56580 [15:50] ActionParsnip, Output of command "group": [15:50] sinau adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare [15:51] ActionParsnip, After installing xubuntu, I only enabled Broadcom STA proprietary driver. May it be root of my problem? [15:51] Wine Anti-aliasing help please... [15:51] auro #winehq for that [15:51] auro: Wine has its own support channel [15:52] Thank you bazhang. I will try. === Pupeno_ is now known as Pupeno [15:54] ActionParsnip, How could it be a permissions problem when I try running "sudo halt"? sudo will run it by root, the most permissive user available [15:56] digitsm: yes but you said it works with sudo....right> [15:57] ActionParsnip, No! It even doesn't shut down with sudo [15:57] I had to manually hold physical power button for 3 secs [15:57] P.S. I installed root partition on a btrfs partition [16:00] So I'm sure I'm just being stupid and missing something obvious here, but unity-tweak-tool won't save anything I do. Nothing happens when I try to change a setting. [16:01] look up for error messages in the dmesg log (in the hope it got flushed before the shutdown) [16:02] <_1_Alfredo> klk [16:03] werd [16:03] How do I configure Ubuntu to foreground web browsers when links are clicked in other applications (e.g. Chrome and Xchat)? [16:03] autoconnect, jeje [16:04] preyalone: should check settings for window 'focus' [16:05] digitsm sounds like this old bug, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1088185 [16:05] Launchpad bug 1088185 in linux (Ubuntu) "kernel hangs on boot with btrfs" [High,Confirmed] [16:05] see last post, no shutdown [16:05] SchrodingersScat: Where would this preference be? In Xchat settings? Or Unity settings? === Sunsetting is now known as phuh [16:07] will the ubuntu iso fit on a 1GB flash drive? [16:07] preyalone: system settings, so maybe that's what you mean by unity settings? [16:07] flyingfisch2: yes, its 700Mb [16:07] preyalone, in xchat, it was right click open link in browser, also ask in #xchat [16:08] ActionParsnip: it is? the iso i am downloading is 981MB... [16:08] but anyway, if the iso fits on the drive then it is fine? [16:08] i mean, i can use it as a liveUSB? [16:08] Hey any idea what would cause my LCD monitor to spontaneously go from native resolution of 1440x900 to 1024x768? === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa [16:09] I tried the online documentation and stuff... and I set something in xorg.conf that almost seems to work for the first 30 or so seconds on rebooting it runs at full resolution then drops back down [16:09] flyingfisch2: what is the filename? [16:10] ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso [16:10] ActionParsnip: ^ [16:10] flyingfisch2: does it pass MD5 test? [16:10] !hashes | flyingfisch2 [16:10] flyingfisch2: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of all downloadable Ubuntu releases [16:10] i am still downloading it [16:11] flyingfisch2: when it finishes, MD5 test it. if the hashes match then the file is good [16:11] ActionParsnip: ok [16:11] back [16:12] how do I get RDP to work on Ubuntu 14.04 [16:13] I am trying to setup an RDP server [16:13] any tips? [16:13] lots of tips online, mostly tips even [16:13] penis tips O . o [16:14] is there any reason to install ubuntu in EFI mode? does it boot faster? [16:14] right now i just do legacy boot [16:14] bazhang: Xchat was just an example, hyperlink left clicking is actually broken :P [16:15] guys interfaces.d is just for putting in eth1...2 3 and so on ? [16:15] xchat you need to right click and open in browser :) [16:15] flyingfisch2 EFI mode gives the kernel direct access to some memory regions which may increase hardware support of your OS [16:15] flyingfisch2: Generally UEFI is neater for handling multiple operating systems, and provides the OS with useful services [16:15] bazhang: so this behavior configuration is specific to the application from which the user clicks the hyperlink, not a global setting in Unity? [16:16] flyingfisch2 for instance, booting using GRUB on a macbook pro will not let Linux get the Video ROM so Radeon init fails [16:16] TJ-: can i use the same iso for either one? [16:16] preyalone, always has been, in my experience [16:16] use EFI boot whenever possible for maximum compatibility [16:16] cool [16:16] nszceta: ok [16:16] so would i just set UEFI mode in BIOS and then boot from the LiveUSB? [16:17] preyalone, if you press ctrl and then click left mousebutton it will open too [16:17] flyingfisch2: Yes, the ISOs have UEFI and Legacy boot combined, so its up to the firmware and user to ensure it starts in the required mode [16:17] ok [16:17] flyingfisch2: some firmware's boot menus will list the boot device twice, with a cryptic indication that one is EFI mode and the other Legacy. [16:18] TJ-: ok [16:18] hi there, against what package should I file a bug or feature request regarding shut down order? Problem is openvpn gets shut down before remote mounted fs will get umounted... that causes a 120 second timeout delay for non-responding shares [16:19] flyingfisch2: If the ISO boots in UEFI mode it'll start a GRUB boot-loader with a text display menu, if in Legacy mode it'll start the isolinux boot-loader that display a graphical screen with a keyboard graphic bottom-center [16:20] TJ-: gotcha [16:24] hi [16:25] crap my backlog was capped at 500 lines. not sure if someone responded... going to reask. [16:25] anyone use CrashPlan on Ubuntu? I'm having issues on 14.04, seems java related. [16:25] http://hastebin.com/potulirebo.vhdl ^^^ to my java issue [16:25] i have downloaded a text file which is 15 GB, but when I try to open this file, the text editor (gedit) freezes, which text editor should i use to open this file? [16:26] newarch, that's a gigantic text file... any editor is going to choke trying to open it. should eventually get it open tho. have you tried a cli editor like nano or vim? [16:26] newarch: vim [16:26] ninja'd [16:27] arrrghhh, nano simply crashes [16:27] arrrghhh, that paste is empty, try paste.ubuntu.com [16:27] flyingfisch2, i will try vim [16:27] OerHeks, weird not empty for me. let me repaste thar. === vidplace7_ is now known as vidplace7 [16:27] What is the proper way to logout using the terminal? Not shutdown but logout. [16:27] hi there, against what package should I file a bug or feature request regarding shut down order? Problem is openvpn gets shut down before remote mounted fs will get umounted... that causes a 120 second timeout delay for non-responding shares [16:27] ryan_46, exit [16:28] Hello [16:28] ryan_46: logout, exit, ctrl-d [16:28] I am reinstalling xubuntu to see whether it corrects my shutdown issue? [16:28] Apt is offering me only a partial upgrade. I'm not sure when this started or why. I dont see any way to find the offending package/PPA that is stopping me from upgrading. Where should I start? [16:28] SCHAAP137: Pici thanks [16:29] OerHeks, this one work? http://paste.ubuntu.com/8099185/ [16:29] arrrghhh, yes, thanks [16:29] ActionParsnip: I thought maybe reinstalling xubuntu on a newly formatted btrfs partition may help [16:29] OerHeks, thank you for any thoughts on how to fix it :). tried oracle 7&8 as well as crashplan's prebuilt java... [16:29] arrrghhh, there has been an jdk7 update today, or do you use the oracle one? [16:30] Question : im in a library and im afraid someone here might be hacking me.. what can i do to see and prevent this [16:30] sere, wireshark [16:30] OerHeks, I've always tried the oracle version from webupd8team's ppa [16:30] sere: run out of the library screaming [16:30] lol [16:31] SCHAAP137: thanks i forgot about that :o [16:31] TheLemonMan: haha i thought about it [16:31] or, sere, just log out / shut down, and read a book [16:31] to completely prevent it [16:31] :P [16:32] I think i know who it is with..using a hude directional wifi booster [16:32] huge* [16:33] OerHeks, I am purging oracle's java and trying openjdk7... [16:34] OerHeks, similar fatal SIGSEGV with openjdk7 :/ [16:34] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8099252/ [16:37] Someone should update the hash files page with 14.04.1's hashes since that's what it's getting people to download atm [16:41] Apt is offering me only a partial upgrade. I'm not sure when this started or why. I dont see any way to find the offending package/PPA that is stopping me from upgrading. Where should I start? [16:41] Xantara: see http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/MD5SUMS [16:41] Hello [16:41] EsoRotica: try "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [16:42] Any idea how to fix this please? http://www.hexstreamsoft.com/tmp/ubuntu-14.04-intermittent-graphical-glitches.png Stuff keeps disappearing or being too pale or having a white background. Nautilus window contents keep disappearing, etc. [16:43] yeah I found it :) gonna try the live CD and see if it can see my screen in proper resolution [16:43] k1l, I have no problem doing that, but is there a way to see the offending package. ( the command is installing the missing 111 packages) [16:44] EsoRotica: some packages need the apt-get dist-upgrade since they are actually installing new packages and not only updateing. so apt-get update cant "install" them [16:44] see !apt for more info [16:45] !apt [16:45] 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) [16:45] I added a scope for Ubuntu 14.04 and it does not show up, it is the scope for PirateBay [16:45] what's a scope? [16:46] expunge: The filters in Unity [16:46] Are linux users increasing? [16:46] netlar: the dash thing? [16:46] Gatis: yes of course [16:46] Gatis, The human population is increasing. [16:46] expunge: yep [16:46] ah === lbaway is now known as luckybunny [16:48] !offtopic | Gatis [16:48] But I added a scope or filter and it did not show up [16:48] netlar: did you restart compiz? [16:48] arrrghhh it's with a dash [16:48] ActionParsnip: I restarted the computer [16:48] orly I thought it was pipe :/ [16:48] netlar: how'd you add it, exactly? [16:48] netlar: oh [16:48] netlar: do you need to manually enable it in configs? === h is now known as Guest67895 [16:49] sudo apt-get install unity-scope-piratebay, that is how I added it [16:49] hi all, my ubuntu will only boot to a command line shell lately. I'm pretty sure this is because my RAID10 array is degraded. Can someone tell me how to force it to boot normally despite the degraded array? Unfortunately I do not have a replacement drive at the moment. [16:49] so anyone a crashplan user in here? ever have issues with java ? [16:49] ActionParsnip: How do I do that? [16:49] TriBeCa99, raid0 is your boot disk? [16:50] TriBeCa99 raid is server technology... is that a server? if yes, it's normal it does not have a gui [16:50] o sorry I misread you said raid10 [16:50] hej [16:51] k1l: Thanks again for the command. Its not that I'm hesitant to resolve the issue, but I'd like to understand which package is placing the dist-upgrade hold. is there a way to do that? [16:51] netlar: not sure, I dont use Unity [16:51] I succeed to remove x11 and all related... and now I've done apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and desktop-base. I go in graphic UI with startx, I have my mouse and background but no environnement like menu and bar...? [16:51] my boot disk is a standalone 60GB SSD, but md127 is a RAID10 array that normally mounts to /home [16:51] evolutionx [16:51] netlar: may be a thing though [16:51] it's linux software rade btw, created in mdadm [16:51] hey guys, i have a quick question.. if i make a cron job that runs every second.. does it creates a new thread everyt time? for example if 1 execution takes 20 seconds [16:51] TriBeCa99, have you tried failing the disk in mdadm or physically pulling it? [16:51] ActionParsnip: May be a thing?? [16:51] MonkeyDust: trust me this box normally has a GUI [16:52] arrrghhh: mdadm -details /dev/md127 reports only 3 drives physically present [16:52] --details, that is [16:52] tpb === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [16:55] Ciao [16:55] !list [16:55] Fra: No warez here!

[16:57] can you mount it in cli mode? is it mount-able? [16:57] yeah [16:57] hello alla [16:58] haven't tried mounting it. doing some googling and i think typing 'exit' in the shell will allow the system to boot [16:58] Kali_Linux: Just ask your question and somebody may be able to help you :) [16:58] hi all. i find myself needing to serve some in-house packages to our intranet. all the tutorials i've seen on the wiki are about setting up simple locally-hosted servers. can someone point me to a resource on setting up secure package repositories on an internal network? should it be a PPA or just a Debian-style repo? thanks. [16:58] guys help me to install themes [16:58] i actually have a cold spare here for another system. it's a completely different 4TB drive instead of the 3TB drives in this box, but I may swap it in and rebuild the array just for data security [16:58] TriBeCa99, I would replace that disk ASAP. I think you can force the array to run in a degraded state [16:59] yeah i'm going to use this 4TB spare and RMA the dead drive [16:59] linux 18 install [17:00] hi [17:01] heya [17:01] wich is more fast and lite ?, linux lite or lubuntu ? [17:02] aszender, try them both [17:03] ashoka: never heard of linux lite [17:03] so does anybody knows does cron job makes a new thread when it executes something ? [17:03] ashoka: they're both Ubuntu deep down, so both Debian deeper down [17:04] ashoka: Lubuntu should be trivially "lighter" at the outset, as LXDE is lighter than Xfce, a tad [17:04] Diplomat: what does it matter [17:05] Because I must run it every second and sometimes execution can take time more than 1 second [17:09] how do I start a gnome session on another display (:1) with a given resolution [17:09] I am trying to setup several independent displays for users to VNC into [17:09] x11vnc works well for existing X servers [17:09] but I can't change the resolution [17:11] Diplomat, I think you need a "real time" kernel... [17:12] but I am not an expert on such things. [17:12] hi === newbee is now known as Guest5602 [17:12] Hi everyone, I'm running 14.04 and I need to install OpenSSL 0.9.8 to debug a handshake failure I'm getting with 1.0.1, what would be the best way to do that? [17:13] Diplomat: cron will run multiple copies of the job. it's a process, not a thread, that gets started, but that likely doesn't matter to you. [17:13] nszceta: what are they going to do on the remote system when they connect? [17:13] Diplomat: if you wish to prevent this, the standard method is to use a lock file [17:13] ActionParsnip use programs remotely [17:13] within their account [17:14] nszceta: why not use SSH and X forwarding, bit easier [17:14] Or, if no one is quite sure, what is the process for installing a source package such as this? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl098 [17:14] nszceta: plus if its a Linux client it will look seamless on the desktop, like in Citrix [17:14] hi im using xubuntu 14.04 buy the sistem couldnt find my graphics card i have a gforce 4 mx but it say the it wasnt a privateve controler for my card [17:15] helpp [17:15] nszceta: setup SSH keys per user and you can make pretty shortcuts that run: ssh user@server "firefox" [17:15] dalmiro: gforce 4 mx!? Wow! that brings back memories [17:15] dalmiro: that will use the nouveua driver, if you run: sudo lshw -C display is it unclaimed? [17:15] yes it appears [17:15] hi. Is there any way to set fan speed of non pwm fans in ubuntu ? [17:16] i mean that it recongnice my video card but i cant instal my controler [17:16] i have been usin a vercion 96 in ubuntu 12.4 [17:16] TankC, you can download that .tar.gz and install from source. I like using checkinstall [17:16] how do i add something to my home path? [17:16] Soo.. lets imagine I have cron job that runs every 5 seconds and downloads something.. if this download takes more than 5 seconds.. does it still starts another download process while that first process runs? [17:16] hej [17:16] Just to be clear [17:16] ActionParsnip clients are using Windows [17:17] TankC, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo [17:17] compiling and easy? I'm not buying it! [17:17] :D [17:17] hi [17:17] well, as easy as installing from source can be :P [17:18] TimeVirus, checkinstall is seriously nice. makes a package suitable for dpkg to just install like any other in the end ;) [17:18] arrrghhh: Thanks [17:18] ya I'm reading now [17:19] I'm not scared of compiling, I just don't know the idiomatic ubuntu way to do it [17:19] I used to run Gentoo :) [17:19] TankC: at least use checkinstall [17:19] ah I see. You are very familiar with it. [17:19] a friend of mine wants me to do a gentoo [17:19] heh [17:19] basically instead of make install, use checkinstall [17:19] !compile | TankC [17:19] TankC: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall [17:20] arrrghhh: what does checkinstall buy me over apt-get -b source ? [17:20] TankC, if it's available in apt-get that is obviously easier/preferred method [17:20] but you were asking about how to compile something specifically from source... [17:21] Ah, ok.. so will checkinstall even work for packages that don't have explicitly defined deb layouts? [17:21] which I think my link is better MonkeyDust :P [17:21] it has the 'newbie' guide all the way at the bottom in the comments [17:21] TankC, exactly. checkinstall replaces make install and builds a .deb for dpkg so you can easily remove it later. [17:21] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall === graingert_ is now known as Guest93030 [17:21] TankC there's also #ubuntu-app-devel [17:21] arrrghhh: that's amazing :) Thanks!

[17:22] heck, I'm having more difficulty getting Ubuntu to boot from my external, thinking maybe i should beat that before ai try and build from source [17:22] arrrghhh, also a !factoid [17:23] heh [17:23] bazhang, I see that thank you :) [17:23] !alis | bipul [17:23] bipul: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels.

[18:06] ok arrrghhh It worked! once disabling the internal from boot sequence did it, I was able to boot Ubuntu! AND when grub came up there was an entry for windows 7 listed 7 being on the internal [18:07] TimeVirus, good [18:07] pbx: Yes, concerning the filters. Do those need to be reset everytime? [18:07] I have an update of some kind but my wifi needs firmware so [18:07] netlar, one thing that helped me was holding down super and reading that whole "keyboard shortcuts" window [18:08] netlar, for filters the nicest thing i discovered was that ctrl-tabbing rotates through them (icons show at bottom of results window) [18:08] Looking for a good application for making diagrams, any ideas? [18:08] I wanted to boot into 7 again to say thx, then run to the house and connect eth0 and get that firmware but when it reboot BIOS said there was no Boot device detected [18:08] sup? [18:09] pbx: thought those were lenses? [18:09] TimeVirus, connect it to a different USB port? [18:09] did you* [18:09] lol [18:09] no [18:09] strange happenings [18:09] I dunno. Booting the OS from a USB port is not really a good idea mainly because it's slow (unless 3.0) [18:09] pbx: I am talking about those filters on the right [18:10] some BIOS don't handle it that well either. Again, check the BIOS. [18:10] yes but its my best option on [18:10] perhaps there's a key you can press (F12?) to pick a drive to boot from [18:10] jhutchins: Using this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo and starting with the section titled "Using the command Line", the command "ip link set" fails with "Not enough information: "dev" argument is required."... however, moving past that, I followed the remaining commands in that section, and although it just "stops", I presume that at the end of that section, I should have a working wireless connection. I don't. [18:10] for now [18:10] export, no [18:10] does wget do a good job of not corrupting downloads? [18:10] hello, where is the preferences in Ubuntu 14.04.1? mi System dont have preferences [18:10] I did: "export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/android-studio/bin" but still cant run ./studio.sh if i am not in android-studio/bin. what am i doing wrong? [18:10] help [18:10] where is the PATH file so i an edit it by hand instead? [18:10] arrrghhh: hrrm I boot linux from USB2 raid1 ok on laptop [18:10] arrrghhh: p.s. like the name =) [18:11] smitzer: ./command means CURRENT directory command, drop the ./ and run just studio.sh [18:11] netlar, yeah, the general categories of those filters are represented by the icons at the bottom of the window also. and as you ctrl-tab they are activated in sequence [18:11] well I feel as though I'm closing in on the problem maybe when I shut down and disable internal again it'll come up --- maybe i need ot boot into bios all the time [18:11] ? [18:11] closing in thanks to your help possibly [18:11] maybe [18:11] pbx: No those are lenses [18:11] netlar, if you really need the granularity of the little buttons i don't have any special tips. i found that part fussy and not that useful [18:12] jhutchins: I had this going several months ago, sadly I can't find my notes on the subject... so I know it's possible, I just don't remember how I did it. [18:12] netlar, ok then, it's clear i'm not a good mentor on this :) [18:12] hola, alguien sabe donde pueden estar las Preferencias en mi Ubuntu 14.04.1, no estan en Sistem, ayuddaaa please [18:12] pbx: So you do not use those filters on the right? [18:12] I'll keep in mind f12 idea too [18:12] export: thanks a lot, it works. [18:12] netlar, i do not. [18:13] how do I remove stuff from the path? where is the textfile located? can i edit it by hand instead? [18:13] I'ma try it again [18:13] finners crossed x [18:13] smitzer: you probably don't want to remove paths that are already there. [18:13] export, i added a wrong path [18:13] and the same path 5 times [18:14] smitzer: just re-set the path, export PATH= [18:14] or exit the shell if you didn't add the path to .profile or anything like that. [18:15] smitzer: ". /etc/environment" [18:15] oh i didn't even know Ubuntu used that [18:16] jhutchins: I believe the relevant issue can be seen here: wlan0: as I'm able to ping the wlan0 interface [18:17] Хм...

[18:25] you might have to tell it what partition space to use/avoid [18:25] the rest is about the same, IIRC [18:25] Oh [18:26] Oh. I'm not completely comfortable with that, but OK [18:27] Flerb_: you should see your Windows partitions [18:27] there'll be two or three, at the start of your disk [18:27] wait fuck. did I just [18:27] oh ok [18:27] don't tell the system do delete or overwrite them, and they'll be fine [18:27] Oh shit [18:27] Flerb_ mind your language [18:27] I just deleted my entire windows installation somehow [18:27] Sorry [18:27] also any changes you tell it to make probably won't apply until you click next or whatever [18:27] hi [18:27] Oh well [18:27] uiuiuiui: ohio [18:27] There wasn't much on there [18:27] hey hey [18:28] good bye [18:29] But the permissions in the "Group" and "Others" keep defaulting to the "None" immediately after I switch to "create and delete files"!

[18:32] could anyone help me out? [18:32] Nothing_Much please, watch your language [18:32] jhutchins: The first thing that page fails to mention is the fact that iwconfig does not support WPA/WPA2 negotiation & authentication when connecting to a wlan network.

Due to Oracle's reputation, the LibreOffice fork is maintained by the Document Foundation. [18:49] eeee: Sorry. Don't mean to be testy. I just don't like "try this command", especially when it involves words like reset. [18:50] I'm more interested in why it vanished when I haven't changed anything. [18:51] Despite a few warnings and errors in the console, it seems to have worked. [18:52] guys I am having a very weird issue with Ubuntu server 14.04.1 [18:53] !server | Kenjiro [18:53] Kenjiro: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server [18:53] I have two servers, both with 14.04.1. In one, if I issue "apt-get install dovecot-postfix" it finds the package and install it. In the other, it says suck packages doesn't exist [18:53] *such [18:54] so to constantly add something to path, how do I do? [18:54] smitzer: you mean append? [18:54] smitzer: per-user or per-system ? [18:55] per user [18:55] Kenjiro: (a) check for differences in /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d -- did you add a PPA on one or something ? (b) check for errors when "sudo apt-get update" [18:56] 14.04 when I do "startx" I have only a big cross for the mouse and the screen is black... [18:56] it was an upgrade [18:56] enyc: I checked /etc/apt/sources.list and they are identical. I will check the rest, hold on [18:56] booh: maybe 'xterm' isn't installed? [18:57] booh: i recall you deleted some xorg packages earlier? [18:57] yes [18:57] eeee, enyc : per user. append. [18:57] smitzer: look in your .profile file -- notice it adds to the paith.. . I would expect you can add a new line e.g. PATH="$PATH:/something/else" on the end [18:58] Guys, someone here knows how to work with BISON++? [18:58] smitzer: then logout login etc... -- need to check it works for all contexts you need, it might not get to the panel/desktop/etc. only 'terminals' -- depends... not sure... =) [18:59] guys [19:00] enyc: nope, no errors when running "apt-get update", sources.list and source.list.d are identical [19:00] Hey out of curiousness if ur wanting to host a website is this a good stepping progress website? https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts [19:01] Kenjiro: compare 'apt-cache show PACKAGENAME' and 'apt-cache search PACKAGENAME' on them ...? [19:01] Kenjiro: is one a different architecture to the other? [19:02] they are both x86_64 [19:02] let me compare that [19:02] Kenjiro: i tried to apt-cache show and it seems the package is obsolete or something [19:02] Package dovecot-postfix is not available, but is referred to by another package. [19:02] This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or [19:02] is only available from another source [19:02] However the following packages replace it: [19:02] mail-stack-delivery [19:02] eeee you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted [19:03] Kenjiro: hrrm packages.ubuntu.com/dovecot-postfix both suggest it is in 12.04 but not 14.04 [19:03] eeee: ^^ not in 14.04 [19:03] hmmmmmmmmm wait a minute.... [19:03] one of them was upgraded from 12.04.4 to 14.04.1 [19:03] oops [19:03] so that could be the difference [19:04] but since the sources are identical, why one can install it, the other can't? [19:05] let me see if that 'mail-stack-delivery' packages does the trick [19:06] kill a guy [19:06] hey, can anyone recommend a fast (but not LTE) 3g usb stick that just works under ubuntu and does not require mode switch etc? [19:07] but there must be a really simpel way to just add things to your path..??? people do this all the time. how do YOu do it?

[20:03] in an old ubuntu distro, I was able to detect and load some proprietary drivers. How to do that in 14.04 ? [20:03] timevirus, if you use the per-session boot you should be able to choose the external usb, an external is a bad option anyway. [20:04] I know it always worked before [20:04] ok I thought of trying that but thought surely there must be no diffeance [20:05] differance* [20:05] booh, only drivers supported here are the ones in the repos. [20:05] bad option or not its my only option if I'm going to run linux [20:06] and i want to run linux host virtualbox and GNS3 [20:06] I mean for graphic cards? [20:06] and learn linux in the mean time while I'm sitting aruond doing nothing else [20:06] timevirus how so you have an internal hd?

[20:07] not me Scunizi [20:07] sorry [20:07] no prob [20:08] timevirus, no you have stuff there that could be on the internal, no windows install needs 80 gigs, use your brain. [20:08] booh: look in the menus for "Restricted Drivers".. should be there. [20:08] lol k [20:08] External [20:09] windows only see windows fs [20:09] so it got some of the external as well as all but 14GB of the internal [20:10] timevirus - and it sometimes has trouble seeing its own fs...LOL [20:10] lol [20:10] timevirus, and by the way, i'm the one who got that mess working for you, when I was not on my phone and using my registered nick.

Anyone have idea how to fix this? So I hit alt to get the HUD, but now I can only access the running program's menues. In 12.04 I could hit Alt and write "Shutdown" or "Suspend" or "Available" (to get online) or "Offline" to get offline. Now it doesn't work. [20:23] I'm having problems with Linux kernel 3.2 in Ubuntu 14.04. I installed linux-image 3.13, but when I boot I get no USB keyboard. Any suggestions? [20:23] (Yes 3.2 is an old kernel) [20:23] ajalkane: can you CTRL+ALT+F2 to get to CLI? [20:23] I boot back into 3.2 so I can at least type, I look at the syslog. It seems there are USB disconnects every 3 seconds or so [20:23] timevirus :http://lifehacker.com/5760551/grub-customizer-makes-it-super-easy-to-edit-your-linux-boot-menu [20:24] not sure if that will help but you can def look at grub and make changes [20:24] thanks vyper [20:24] I'll look into it though [20:24] linagee: what hardware do you have? [20:24] Scunizi: sure [20:24] ajalkane: you can reboot, shutdown whatever from there. [20:24] linagee does other usb work in 3.13? or all usb broken [20:24] Scunizi: of course, but that's kind of slow way to do it [20:25] ianorlin: a regular USB keybaord. I think this might be the problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/362402/usb-keyboard-does-not-load-after-13-10-upgrade [20:25] ronin: yes [20:25] Scunizi: might as well move the good old mouse to the menu to do it [20:25] I'm just looking for a way to fix the behaviour so that it works as in 12.04 and the HUD becomes really great feature like it once was [20:25] mozgiii_, that's not cool :D [20:26] I'm actually okay with modifying Unity source codes if that's the only way to do it and there's not some underlying technical reason why it's no longer feasible [20:27] ajalkane: so something broke on the upgrade.. I've forgotten the exact command but sudo apt-get -f install or similar will look for broken packages. [20:27] linagee that question is involving the keyboard for full disk encryption envetinr gpassphrase [20:27] ronin: yeah, that's a very old problem, you can google something like "linux hdds order" for more info [20:28] we're zeroing in on this...maybe it cant be fixed and I'll just have to go with the work-around -- I didnt realize there was any difference tween flash and magnetic memory other than the obvious -- Thought to the OS, memory is memory or to the BIOS [20:28] meh [20:28] linagee are you using full disk encrypion [20:28] ajalkane: or do a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to see if there is anything else that needs to be pulled in. [20:28] Scunizi: you sure about that? I've googled about this and seen some complaints that this was changed on 13.10 so that only current running application menues are available to HUD? Would love to get it fixed with some simple apt-get magic. [20:29] ajalkane: that could be. I went kde when unity hit. [20:29] Scunizi: heh okay, thanks anyway [20:29] sure.. good luck :) === fred_ is now known as Guest1111 [20:30] anyway you guys got me able to boot the external and I perciate it :) [20:31] ianorlin: not using full disk encryption [20:36] hello, I have 2 hdd connected in raid 0 (motherboard controller) in my two sata 6.0gb connectors.

There is something that seems rather common problem with Linux version of VLC(All hits on this problem lead to either Ubuntu or Fedora forums): The picture is randomly skewed and distorted, like, you're zoomed in a funny house mirror image of the actual video [21:19] http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=252357 <- This thread seems to have a visual representation of said bug [21:19] did you try xine? [21:20] I've never had that tho with vlc [21:20] (Also, all the color channels seem to distort separately. That means, black&white channel goes distorted one way, then red channel goes another, blue does another thing and green is off the screen or something [21:20] Jonii: Could be an issue with your video. Have you tried other players? [21:20] jhutchins: this happens only in VLC(I use Totem as a backup), for many videos but randomly not all [21:21] Jonii: never had this issue with vlc [21:21] Jonii, do you have a Intel GMA 965 X3100 too? [21:21] jhutchins: to make it weirder, you can randomly get usually-bugged video to work if you fiddle with settings. Restarting the playback resets the problem most often [21:22] Jonii: might be some codec/decoder issue? in comparison with the driver? some drm issue? you could start vlc from terminal and see wht it gives there when the error happens [21:22] k1l: no idea. I don't actually know much about video files [21:23] Jonii: start vlc from terminal, let it run and see what it gives when the error comes up [21:24] Ok, so, at least it gives problem "Failed to resize display" [21:24] Also, "Failed to initialize VAAPI device" [21:26] Aww, man. Turns out VLC misplays every video :( [21:26] hello people, I have a question about running the bluetooth service. I have 2 usb bluetooth devices on my system and I would like to run the normal bluetooth service on one dongle and the sixad service on another dongle. can someone tell me how to run these 2 services on seperate bluetooth dongles?

If I start another instance, that instance will have distorted funny house mirror style playback on every video [21:27] OerHeks: Radeon HD 7850 [21:28] Jonii: well, i dont know if vlc can use several times the same vaapi stuff of one card.

[21:33] arrrghhh: yeah. The weird thing is, repeatedly trying can get them videos working. Also, I get random distortion images to stay on top of future videos even if these videos by themselves usually work [21:33] Jonii: Some people have had problems with it, nearly all users have no trouble at all. [21:34] what kind of videos? what codec [21:34] arrrghhh: Doubt if it's a codec issue, that is a yes/no kind of thing.

[21:35] 14.04 [21:35] Jonii: There are at least four that will play almost anything. [21:35] Soooo. I encountered a strange bit of behavior. And I'm wondering if there's a reason.

[21:35] donbeo: please run a "sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to make sure you got the latest state [21:36] Jonii: It's also possible your video files are corrupt, or that your hard drive is not reading them back correctly.

[21:37] Ubuntu MATE looks lovely :) [21:37] the installeer works but then dropbox does not sync [21:37] good ol' times [21:37] Jonii: You can try reseating cards and dimms, running memcheck, installing and running smartmontools and watching the logs for disk errors... [21:37] I accidentally removed my user from all groups but my primary one. Then I dropped to root shell and added myself to the sudo group. However upon reboot, I was not in the sudo group, despite having the appropriate entry in the /etc/group file. Sudo would not work (despite the appropriate entry for the sudo group in the sudoers file). So I dropped to root shell again. Added my self to the adm group. Then I appeared in the sudo group and could sudo. Anyone hav [21:38] Ive download btsync at tar.gz at my computer - Xubuntu 14.04. How can i open of extract that ?

[21:39] the alttaber [21:39] Jonii, they are just throwing out ideas to rule out hardware issues [21:40] Hello everyone. I'm trying to install 4.2 and am having problems. Can anyone help me out please? [21:40] unfortunately Compton unlike Compiz does not provide a replacement :/ [21:40] memtest86 (part of the ubuntu livecd) is a great tool which will rule out any issues with memory [21:40] Just to be clear, I don't know how to do any of the things you listed, meaning it's gonna take at least a full day for me to complete that list [21:40] sarah-21: 4.2 of what? [21:40] I'm sorry Digikam [21:40] arrrghhh: Yeah, I got it fixed. I'm just wondering why it happened. I didn't appear in the sudo group until adding myself (via root shell) to the adm group. [21:40] sarah-21: 14.04 got 4.3 in the repos. [21:40] Thanks ! [21:41] Jonii: Ok, reseating just means to open up the case, unplug the video card and plug it back in firmly, unplug the memory modules and plug them back in. [21:41] sarah-21: oh weit, its 3.5 [21:41] Jonii: memcheck is a standard program often installed by the ubuntu installer, but you can install it like any other package. [21:41] sarah-21: easiest way is to see if there is a PPA. but we cant guarantee for the PPAs [21:42] k1l: It attempted to install 4.2 but there are unmet dependencies [21:42] Jonii: smartmon tools is another package, and it comes with directions on setting it up (I don't remember how far it gets set up in Ubuntu). It will log any disk errors so you can tell if your disk is having problems. [21:42] K1l: there is a ppa but the same problem happens [21:42] sarah-21: that is the issue with PPAs. if the maintainer did not make a good job there are unmet depencies. try to talk the PPA maintainer if he can solve that and make a better package [21:42] Jonii: You can also reseat the hard drive cables, just un-plug and plug back in; make sure you get it plugged back in right. [21:42] hello,new ubuntu user..ok so i installed gnome and i still have unity...how can i remove unity forever and keep gnome without crashing my system ?ty [21:43] jim_: choose gnome on the login screen [21:43] !puregnome [21:43] If you want to remove all !Kubuntu packages or !Xubuntu packages and have a default !Ubuntu system, follow the instructions here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/pureubuntu [21:43] i need to remove unity [21:43] k1l: I wouldn't know how to contact the maintainer. I got the ppa info from the Digikam web site [21:43] jim_: It's probably not worth the effort for unity, it uses lots of gnome components. [21:43] digikam appears to be part of the repo's. sarah-21 are you just doing "apt-get install digikam"? [21:43] jhutchins: i dont think that will work with unity and gnome since they share pakcages [21:44] oh I see you want 4.2 [21:44] jim_: its not that easy since gnome and unity share gnome base packages. [21:44] trusty only has 3.5... well you could update to utopic if you're brave :P [21:44] k1l: Yeah, I wouldn't bother, disk space is cheap. Just ignore it. [21:44] brave you say? [21:44] sarah-21: see on launchpad.net for that ppa [21:44] arrrghhh: yes after adding the repo [21:45] I'm running an alpha version of Utopic MATE [21:45] will sudo apt-get purge unity work? [21:45] sarah-21, which repo? [21:45] jim_: again: that will not help [21:45] sarah-21, did you also install all the dependences?

It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!

[22:11] arrrghhh: The only option the software center offers is 4.2 [22:11] sarah-21, what version of ubuntu are you on!? === graingert is now known as Guest22041 [22:11] arrrghhh: 14.04 === Brandon__ is now known as bblindy [22:11] sarah-21, you need to remove that repo that you added then [22:12] and just install it from ubuntu's repo's [22:12] arrrghhh: I didn't know that it can be done [22:12] digikam is in the repo's from what I can tell [22:12] v3.5 in trusty (14.04) [22:13] http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=digikam&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all [22:13] sarah-21, so remove that repo you added... philip/extra or w/e and apt-get update, then try just apt-get installing digikam [22:14] arrrghhh: Ok, I'll read up on how to do that. Thank you for all your generous help [22:15] sarah-21: Sometimes the dependencies make backporting not worth it. [22:16] i did `cat /etc*-release` [22:16] i get DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS" [22:16] does that mean i have desktop [22:16] or server? [22:16] VERSION="14.04.1 LTS, Trusty Tahr" [22:17] jeffreylevesque: that does not tell if you have desktop or server edition installed. [22:17] jeffreylevesque: It doesn't mean either. [22:17] how can i tell? [22:17] jeffreylevesque: The difference between a "desktop" and a "server" is what packages are installed by default. [22:17] jeffreylevesque: there is no difference in the server or desktop install anymore, besides the server install doesnt ship with a Desktop [22:17] jeffreylevesque: What is it you want to do with ths system? [22:17] oh [22:18] well, i can't get my python script working. I just installed what i thouth was server on vmware [22:18] i have the python script working on server as dual boot on another machine [22:18] so even if it was a server install, the moment you install a desktop its a desktop :) [22:18] !python [22:18] python is a popular Object Oriented scripting language included in Ubuntu. For more on Python please see http://www.python.org/ or #python [22:19] so i was thinking maybe it was because i accidentally installed the desktop [22:19] jeffreylevesque: so you are looking in the wrong direction to solve a totally other issue. [22:19] i installed server, then gnome [22:19] jeffreylevesque: So probalby the specific error you get makes a difference. [22:19] yes, [22:19] thank you! [22:20] jhutchins: What is the best way to get the latest version of the software then? [22:23] sarah-21: It depends on the software. You may be able to build it on your system so it uses your current libraries, or the developers may have decided they don't care about backward compatibility. [22:23] sarah-21: Usually the latest available in Ubuntu is the latest that is tested and known to be stable. [22:23] sarah-21: Is there some new feature you really want? === Bercik_ is now known as Bercik [22:24] jhutchins: Yes, stability. Point "0" versions often times need some help as bugs exist. This seems to be the case with 4.0 of Digikam [22:26] sarah-21: File bugreports, work with the maintainers to get them fixed. [22:27] jhutchins: Since 4.2 is the only version available in the Software Center, how do I do this. I'm very new with Ubuntu [22:28] !bugreport [22:28] Bah, what good is a bot that doesn't know that? [22:28] !bug [22:28] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.

I am not having any success finding the answer on google [22:35] there is a version of uTorrent client to ubuntu?

I send it to my ipod nano 5g and the video shows, but it will not play. The screen goes black and then it goes back to the video menu, as if the video was half a second long. Any solutions? [22:46] why cant archive manager open a .rar file? [22:47] !rar [22:47] rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free [22:47] theborger: sorry, no. and i dont think that a "site" will force you to use that version. that is not how torrent works [22:47] timevirus, install rar from the software centre [22:47] ok [22:47] mint was able [22:47] thought non mint would too [22:48] kostkon: pm?

[23:08] Glorfinde|: there's probably a preset for WinFF, or HandBrake [23:08] Glorfinde|: which probably amounts to a simple set of specific params for ffmpeg, which you could also use [23:09] Glorfinde|: alternatively, if you have a video you know works on that device, it's easy enough to duplicate its specifics [23:09] so it will not work in banshee? [23:10] Glorfinde|: I doubt it has to do with banshee, but the way the video was _created_ (or transcoded) [23:10] hello, wondering if anyone might be able to assist me in an issue i'm having installing ubuntu, or using it at all... when loading i see the ubuntu splash screen and then the screen dies and there is no response at all from the system, i have tried using the install option as well as the live option and attempted command prompt only with the same result each time. anyone familiar with this issue and have a work around ? or could [23:10] Glorfinde|: banshee is probably doing its job fine [23:10] dyinginstall: your very long msg was cut off at 'or could|' [23:10] ok, does it convert it? because I didn't convert it at all. [23:11] dyinginstall, Have you checked the sum of the iso or install media, or done a nomodeset boot"? [23:11] or could this be a problem with my system? [23:12] Glorfinde|: no I wouldn't think banshee attempts that at all, hence your problem [23:12] using ubuntu 14.04 in ec2, trying to make package update completely noninteractive... which grub keys must I set in debconf-set-selections? I believe it should just be: grub/update_grub_changeprompt_threeway and grub-pc/install_devices multiselect ... [23:12] ah, that makes sense. how would I convert it? [23:12] Glorfinde|: as I said, with a preset from winff, or handbrake; or by using ffmpeg directly [23:12] no... though i did check the disk for errors and the check came back with no problems @ beldar [23:13] so I should get one of those? which would be best? [23:13] dyinginstall, A md5sum, or just the disc check option, read questions carefully and answer all inquiries. [23:13] Glorfinde|: they all use ffmpeg, I would just use that, but it's a commandline app so you'd have to be comfortable with that [23:14] Glorfinde|: a preset might well come with winff or handbrake, and it might "just work" [23:14] havn't tried checking the sum [23:14] dyinginstall, You can tab complete nicks no @ needed [23:14] !md5sum | dyinginstall always use nicks and check the iso and install medium.

If so, check your X11 or xorg logs for errors - could be an old or unsupported graphics card, or a bug in a graphics driver [23:14] ok, I will try handbrake [23:15] Beldar: oh ok sorry, not used to IRC , has been a long time since i have been on an IRC channel [23:15] !nomodeset | dyinginstall if sum is good try this. [23:15] dyinginstall if sum is good try this.: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [23:16] dyinginstall, You're doing fine it is just nice to get the whole thing consolidated for efficiency. ;) [23:16] Glorfinde|: chances are this will suffice after you install libfdk-aac(0) and libx264(-142) ffmpeg -i input.file -vcodec libx264 -preset ultrafast -acodec libfdk_aac output.mp4 [23:17] Glorfinde|: if it's a very large video file, you can make it smaller with -s FOOxBAR, that gets complicated the more perfect you want =) [23:17] ok, that looks way to complicated. [23:17] I have no idea what all that means [23:17] rcampbel3: haven't tried logging in that way, how do i view the logs? it's an onboard video card...

If you are just not sure on what we suggest state that. [23:22] I have a dedicated pc running a special java app in full screen all the time.

[23:22] standard ubuntu 14.04 so... unity [23:23] booh, There is no auto hide for the top bar.

[23:23] I need a solution... [23:23] I thought ubuntu used gnome [23:23] booh, there is a full screen with f prompt [23:23] by default [23:24] what is f prompt?
