| bennypr0fane | hello, is it normal that my sudo password does give me permission to su? | 00:17 |
| rww | bennypr0fane: yes | 00:18 |

| === deimos_ is now known as deimos | ||
| bennypr0fane | rww: but I'm trying to switch to root | 00:18 |
| rww | bennypr0fane: then use sudo... | 00:19 |
| bennypr0fane | it won't cd with sudo | 00:19 |
| rww | oh. | 00:19 |
| rww | sudo -i | 00:19 |
| bennypr0fane | rww. thanks. just curious: what does the -i option do, and why do I need it to cd? are there any other everyday-commands that don't work with sudo? | 00:20 |
| rww | bennypr0fane: runs a new copy of bash with root privileges | 00:21 |
| rww | as opposed to sudo cd whatever, which runs cd and then exits (and doesn't affect your current shell) | 00:21 |
| bennypr0fane | isn't that much the same as becoming root? | 00:21 |
| bennypr0fane | through su | 00:22 |
| rww | yes | 00:22 |
| bennypr0fane | why does my password not work for su? I don't recall ever setting any other one | 00:23 |
| rww | because it's asking for the root password, and there isn't one | 00:23 |

| ivan``` | hey, i have a problem, chroimium freezes after some time of using it, it happens after scrolling tabs with mouse wheel, after freezing if i press alt-f4 it will tell something about closing unexpectadly. It happens on my Ubuntu 14.04 since i updated it from unknown version to version 37, and then to 38-dev | 00:26 |
| coolstar | hi, I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my Acer C720 but every so often the screen freezes. Clicking does nothing but the cursor still moves around. | 00:27 |
| bennypr0fane | t0ntin, do you know if the update was completed? | 00:27 |
| t0ntin | yes, the update was done. I restarted, and it was all screwed up | 00:27 |
| bennypr0fane | t0ntin, did it tell you it needed to restart before the update was complete? | 00:28 |
| t0ntin | I can't remember for sure, but I think it didn't tell me. | 00:29 |
| bennypr0fane | ivan```, sounds like too little RAM. how much you got? lots of tabs open? | 00:29 |
| ivan``` | no, bennypr0fane, it happens even with small numbers of tabs | 00:29 |
| ivan``` | i have 4 gb | 00:29 |
| bennypr0fane | t0ntin, I would do sudo apt-get update, and then sudo apt-get -f install | 00:30 |
| spearhead | ivan```, sounds like a chromium development issue, maybe try asking in #chromium-support | 00:30 |
| t0ntin | will that give me the latest updates? | 00:30 |

| bennypr0fane | t0ntin, apt-get -f install checks if you have held back packages and tries to fix missing dependencies | 00:32 |
| t0ntin | I'll try it. Thanks. | 00:33 |
| spearhead | ivan```, I'm showing 497 users in the #chromium channel | 00:33 |
| ivan``` | spearhead: yea but last time i asked there no one was answering or just chatting | 00:34 |
| bennypr0fane | ivan```, do you really need your chromium to be a dev version? bcs otherwise jsut rolling back to 37 might solve yr problem | 00:36 |

| === tortib is now known as Guest85546 | ||
| bennypr0fane | coolstar, that is very little information to go. try to find out if a specific action triggers the freeze. If you only just installed, maybe the installation didn't go well. | 00:37 |
| coolstar | bennypr0fane: I noticed it also happens on my friends' C720's as well. They're also on Ubuntu 14.04 | 00:37 |
| coolstar | it happens mainly when playing flash video | 00:38 |
| bennypr0fane | then I don't think there's reason to believe it's a development issue. so how many tabs you got open? | 00:38 |
| coolstar | 3 | 00:38 |
| coolstar | in firefox | 00:38 |
| coolstar | happens a lot when playing youtube videos | 00:39 |
| bennypr0fane | coolstar, mainly or only? the tabs question was actually for ivan``` , sorry | 00:39 |
| coolstar | bennypr0fane: mainly | 00:39 |
| bennypr0fane | for how long have you been using this install before running into this problem? | 00:40 |
| bennypr0fane | coolstar | 00:40 |
| ivan``` | bennypr0fane: it happens with any number of tabs, i have lots of unused RAM when this happens | 00:40 |

| bennypr0fane | ivan```, any other browsers installed? they work fine? | 00:41 |
| coolstar | bennypr0fane: I don't think there are any proprietary GPU drivers for the Haswell Intel graphics | 00:41 |
| ivan``` | bennypr0fane: yes, but they are slow, so i dont want to use them | 00:42 |
| bennypr0fane | coolstar, maybe that's the problem. have you cehcked? | 00:42 |
| ivan``` | bennypr0fane: and they don't support scrolling tabs with wheel | 00:42 |
| paulkass | hello | 00:42 |
| bennypr0fane | coolstar, if not, run Jockey ("additional dirvers" or similar) and see if it gives you a choice to try some other driver | 00:43 |

| netameta | what is tcl 8.5 ? | 00:47 |
| ivan``` | bennypr0fane: i mean switching between tabs with wheel. can't live without it once used to it | 00:47 |
| ivan``` | bennypr0fane: especially when having mouse with fast wheel like g500 | 00:48 |
| Caramoan | is there live stream for ubuntu topic? | 00:49 |
| bennypr0fane | ivan```, scrolling tabs works fine in ff here. If you think the speed is the problem, maybe tuning it down in system settings could help? | 00:50 |
| ivan``` | bennypr0fane: switching between tabs with whell when you move pointer on the title of one of the tabs and scroll wheel, tab will switch | 00:52 |
| eedeep | hi there...just upgraded to 14.04 LTS from 12.04 LTS and went fine except now I can't see my clock in the menu bar! http://askubuntu.com/questions/371374/where-did-the-menu-bar-clock-go | 00:52 |
| eedeep | these suggestions don't seem to work: http://itsfoss.com/fix-date-time-missing-menu-bar-ubuntu-1310/ | 00:53 |
| eedeep | frustrating thing is I can see the time in the menu bar *before* I log in | 00:53 |
| eedeep | but then when I'm logged in proper, it's not there | 00:53 |
| eedeep | any ideas? | 00:53 |
| coolstar | bennypr0fane: also one more thing, the brightness keys on the keyboard seem to actually be the F6 and F7 keys. Is there a way I can get ubuntu to actually change the brightness when they're pressed? | 00:55 |
| daftykins | eedeep: maybe a unity reset would do you some good | 00:55 |
| coolstar | (I already mapped the F8, F9 and F10 keys to their respective volume keys in the keyboard settings) | 00:56 |
| eedeep | daftykins: oh yeah? /me googles how to do that | 00:56 |
| bennypr0fane | coolstar, everything in due time.. :-D have you solved the freeze issue? It might not even be the graphics driver, but it would be my first guess with this kind of problem | 00:57 |
| coolstar | bennypr0fane: nope, still haven't yet. I'll try seeing if I can re-create it | 00:57 |
| coolstar | let me see if the syslog/dmesg would reveal anything (let me set up SSH on it, one sec) | 00:58 |
| bennypr0fane | coolstar, other than web-searching for linux driver problems with your specific hardware (especially if you know a guy with the same laptop has the same problem), I'm out of ideas. sorry mate. but dmesg also seems like a good one | 00:59 |
| eedeep | daftykins: hmm, no luck | 01:00 |

| SchrodingersScat | LtDan: the part I'm confused about is I don't know what a ubuntu bookmark is, but if it's the firefox bookmarks then there should be a hidden folder in your home directory that stores your firefox settings, bookmarks, etc. that you can potentially copy and have the same profile on multiple machines. | 01:24 |

| SchrodingersScat | LtDan: ok, either open up your file manager or open up a terminal. If you use a file manager then turn on viewing of hidden folders and look for .mozilla , if you use terminal then you should be able to cp the folder using cp -r .mozilla /foo/bar/usbstick/ | 01:26 |

| quatrox | usr13: he wrote that he connected his USB printer to his router | 01:37 |
| cymrutree | FailFarm: so can I look it up or something? | 01:38 |
| samthewildone | usr13, Yes, I assume it's networked because its connected to the WiFi router. | 01:38 |
| cymrutree | I didn't change it from the default if that helps any | 01:39 |
| cymrutree | except I put in some stupid code I found on a help forum that probably caused the problem | 01:39 |
| cymrutree | let me find it | 01:39 |
| usr13 | samthewildone: So, what IP address did you assign to it? | 01:39 |
| quatrox | samthewildone: I would assume you need driver support in your router as well | 01:39 |
| samthewildone | usr13, Didn't assign anything to it. Matter of fact we just reset the router to defaults. | 01:39 |

| quatrox | then restart skype | 01:42 |
| Bashing-om | OldSkoool: Though confusing, pretty straight forward. post #10 is the surer solution method. -> sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc <-; we can step throgh that one. | 01:43 |
| cymrutree | I don't see the option | 01:43 |
| usr13 | samthewildone: Are you seeing anything that looks like that printer at localhost:631/admin ? | 01:44 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: it is there, but I cannot help you locate it, as I do not use skype anymore | 01:44 |
| cymrutree | yeah lemme look it up | 01:44 |
| OldSkoool | Bashing-om: I can try that. I have the live USB running already. So type that command into a terminal and cross my fingers? Is that right? | 01:44 |
| === RedDeath is now known as zz_RedDeath | ||
| Bashing-om | OldSkoool: No, a bit more complex than just that. We have to SHange Root into the install to make the commannd effective to the install. | 01:45 |
| Bashing-om | CHange* | 01:46 |
| cymrutree | somewhere it says you can't disable it | 01:47 |
| cymrutree | without editing the files or something | 01:47 |
| cymrutree | and I can't find the files just the application... | 01:47 |
| cymrutree | does skype even keep files? | 01:47 |
| === zz_RedDeath is now known as RedDeath | ||
| Bashing-om | OldSkoool: IF you are not comforable with a CHange Root routine, we can try a simpler method to gain access to the installed system and from there ( if we can gain entry) perform the "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" routine. | 01:47 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: I believe it is a menu in skype called options or preference | 01:48 |
| * RedDeath Back | 01:48 | |
| OldSkoool | Bashing-om: I don't mind doing it this way if you don't mind helping me. :) | 01:48 |
| OldSkoool | K. I did that. A window came up asking for a linux command line. Says it's allowed to be empty (it is empty) | 01:48 |
| samthewildone | usr13, http://www.hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/install/index.html | 01:49 |
| usr13 | OldSkoool: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub | 01:49 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: in there, you find a setting with a description similar to "allow skype to automatically adjust "... | 01:49 |
| samthewildone | usr13, looks promising. | 01:49 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: disable that and restart skype | 01:49 |
| Bashing-om | OldSkoool: Are you presently in the CVHange Root .. NOT in the liveDVD ? .. IF CHange Rooted, then yes, allow to be empty is OK . | 01:50 |
| cymrutree | not under General | 01:50 |
| cymrutree | not under Advanced | 01:50 |
| cymrutree | not under Sound Settings | 01:50 |
| cymrutree | i checked bout everywhere else too | 01:50 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: it should be under Sound | 01:51 |
| OldSkoool | Bashing-om: It's a small purple window that popped up when I typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc It says "package configuration" at the top. The "configuring grub-pc" then a bunch of words and a place to type a Linux command line (that is empty currently). So just hit enter with no command? | 01:51 |
| cymrutree | sound devices that is | 01:51 |
| cymrutree | ok found it | 01:51 |
| cymrutree | nothing different | 01:52 |
| cymrutree | i checked if that box was still checked after restarting skype and it was | 01:53 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: did you restart skype? | 01:53 |
| Bashing-om | OldSkoool: Well, IF you have not mounted the installed root partition to work on the installed grub, you will have NO effect. I ask again, where are you ? | 01:53 |
| cymrutree | yeah, i quit and logged back in | 01:53 |

| cymrutree | somewhere I found how to go to alsa mixer | 01:53 |
| OldSkoool | Bashing-om: Sorry. Let me reread all you wrote. Maybe I missed something. | 01:53 |
| cymrutree | it just shows one 00 box with no bar over it, not sure what that means but the website doesn't say what to do with it | 01:54 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: if skype is adjusting your mixer settings automatically, there is not much you can do. You need to make sure skype stops doing that | 01:54 |
| cymrutree | maybe it's not skype | 01:54 |
| cymrutree | idk | 01:54 |
| samthewildone | brb | 01:55 |
| cymrutree | what about alsa, all it says under default soundcard is one track called "S/PDIF" | 01:55 |
| cymrutree | what the... i'm not even using S/PDIF | 01:55 |
| Bashing-om | OldSkoool: Wee must mount the installed root file system to work on the installed grub, we can try an easier way to mount the root file system, ot take the lomg sure way .. It does not mater to me which way we go . I Think we will arrive at a solution either way. | 01:55 |
| Bashing-om | lomb/long* | 01:56 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: sound card controls are often misnamed | 01:56 |
| cymrutree | ok | 01:56 |

| HikaruBG | guys | 01:57 |
| OldSkoool | Bashing-om: OK I read about chroot a minute ago. No I did not do that yet. Ubuntu is installed on a drive with a bunch of partitions (home, boot, cache, something else I don't remember) I can see all them file systems but none of them are mounted. | 01:57 |
| HikaruBG | is there a blueray player for Ubuntu? | 01:57 |
| cymrutree | so if skype is totally shut off it should still be able to mess with the volume settings? | 01:57 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: Sound Blaster Audigy had 1000 different hardware editions and there were no way to detect which one in software. Therefore, do not always trust the names on the ALSA controls | 01:57 |
| Bashing-om | !change root | 01:57 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: no | 01:57 |
| cymrutree | ok | 01:57 |
| cymrutree | well there's the same problem when skype is off | 01:58 |
| sjohnson | why doesn't apt-get remove take out "service --status-all" entries? | 01:58 |
| HikaruBG | Guys - anyone on the blueray player for ubuntu? is there one? | 01:58 |
| quatrox | cymrutree: then I have no idea | 01:59 |
| LtDan | Still confused. Thank you anyway. | 01:59 |

I have the ‘ruby1.9.1’ package installed, but 'ri' doesn’t have documentation for the language classes.

| samthewildone | usr13, So I have to assign IP to printer through router. | 02:01 |

| OldSkoool | Bashing-om: OK let's try it the easier way. I just want to be up and running so I can do my work. I am going to format everything in a month anyways and rejigger some stuff. | 02:02 |

| quatrox | HikaruBG: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=blueray+ubuntu+howto | 02:15 |

| OldSchool | Bashing-om: This used to be a Windows 7 Dual boot computer but I haven't used Windows in months, so I unplugged the disks that Windows ever touched to keep things simple and help with troubleshooting. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with these GPT partition tables. | 02:23 |
| OldSchool | Like maybe Windows put it on there at some point or something. | 02:24 |
| html | HikaruBG, how did you resovle your issue? | 02:24 |
| Bashing-om | OldSchool: A bit concerned with that out put. Let's use a more indepth tool -> sudo apt-get install gdisk , sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda | pastebinit <- . | 02:24 |

| t0ntin | yeah, I have a few programs I use: skype, chromium, thunderbird. Do I use the same command for those? | 02:31 |
| html | OldSchool, XD | 02:31 |

| quatrox | samthewildone: not sure | 02:35 |
| t0ntin | quatrox, I had it on the one that stopped working | 02:35 |
| OldSchool | That is what started this mess in the first place, but that was before I unplugged the Windows harddrives. | 02:35 |
| quatrox | t0ntin: strange. Maybe it saved it preferences under .mozilla or something | 02:36 |
| quatrox | t0ntin: are you sure you spelled it correctly? | 02:37 |
| t0ntin | yes, I tried skype and thunderbird | 02:37 |
| Tex_Nick | samthewildone: your router dhcp list should show your workstation unless you have it assigned a static ip other that your router | 02:37 |

| t0ntin | quatrox, I don't | 02:38 |
| quatrox | t0ntin: then I don't know | 02:38 |
| Bashing-om | OldSchool: This situation is fixable, just beyond what I have done - I have no direct experience with GPT, and you really would rather have the GPT partitioning. | 02:38 |

| t0ntin | quatrox, Oh, yes, that's not a problem | 02:39 |
| OldSchool | Bashing-om: Well...before I tried to upgrade, I copied my home directory and made a list of all software installed. Do you think I should just format / repartition everything instead of beating my head into the wall? It sounds like there is no good answer. BTW, thank you for all your help regardless. | 02:40 |

| PCworker | hello all, I am trying to remember how-to update the "clamTK" using the terminal. Who can tell me the proper command to use to do that? | 03:02 |
| OldSchool | eeee: You mean this one? http://pastebin.com/75vDdqDQ I control-C it because I didn't know what to do | 03:03 |
| SchrodingersScat | PCworker: might be freshclam | 03:03 |
| PCworker | that's right, thanks. | 03:03 |
| TylerE | How can I make audio stay active all the time? I am outputing sound via DIgital Out and Ubuntu keeps deactivating the connection when it's silent for a while - the problem is it can take as long as 5 seconds for my stereo receiver to start playing audio again. | 03:03 |
| TylerE | So if it's something like an alert sound I *never hear it* | 03:03 |
| Kristie23 | You can find funny videos here. http://tinyurl.com/ozfvxy3 | 03:04 |
| SchrodingersScat | very doubtful, also this is ubuntu support not your spam board | 03:05 |
| eeee | OldSchool: so you had a mbr ? and you used gdisk? and it converted it to gpt? | 03:05 |
| OldSchool | eeee: I have no idea. html or Bashing-om may be able to answer that question. | 03:05 |
| OldSchool | eeee: When it asked if it's a GPT partition table, I just hit control C because I got scared. | 03:06 |
| eeee | i mean the earlier paste | 03:06 |
| gasull | does dpkg automatically install dependencies? | 03:06 |
| eeee | or later paste, i dont know | 03:06 |
| eeee | when you used gdisk | 03:07 |
| OldSchool | eeee: http://pastebin.com/mwdNra5W http://paste.ubuntu.com/8347311/ those are all my pastes. | 03:07 |
| OldSchool | plus the other one I jst repasted. | 03:07 |
| eeee | yeah, i mean the 2nd one | 03:07 |
| darius93 | how do i disable vsync with the opensource radeon drivers? | 03:08 |

| Tex_Nick | Kristie23 : that's NOT funny ... you need to NOT make post's like that ... this is a family oriented channel !!! | 03:08 |
| OldSchool | eeee: I am sorry I do not understand the question. | 03:08 |
| Bashing-om | eeee: OldSchool // To this time all "we" have done is look, and "parted -l" says the partition table is hosed . | 03:09 |
| OldSchool | eeee: It says: "Found invalid GPT and valid MBR; converting MBR to GPT format in memory. " So I guess it just converted it in RAM but did'nt write to disk | 03:09 |

| html | OldSchool, what is the raid set up like? | 03:16 |
| OldSchool | html: At this point, all RAID disks are unplugged. It used to be 1 HDD for Windows 7 and a motherboard-controlled RAID sort of thing thta used a solid state drive as a Windows cache disk. | 03:17 |
| OldSchool | html: So any of the pastes that I put up I did AFTER I unplugged the RAID disks. | 03:18 |
| OldSchool | It was some fancy motherboard chipset that Intel had out a few years ago. More trouble than it's worth, IMO. | 03:18 |
| html | OldSchool, ok well i need you to do a full write up on this so we are not using more time then need by asking faq and rehased questions. something we can use as a great starting point | 03:19 |
| OldSchool | I can do that I guess before just saying screw it and nuking everything. Where should I post it? | 03:20 |
| html | OldSchool, that means what your raid setup? what kind is it ? what os did you install first then the next one? | 03:20 |
| TylerE | I swear PulseAudio is the mode confusing blasted thing ever. How hard is to downmix everything to 44.1/16, output via a specified device, AND DON"T TRY TO DO ANYTHING FANCY BECAUSE PULSEAUDIO IS LOBOTOMIZED AND CLUELESS | 03:21 |
| eeee | OldSchool: ok, just read the stuff you posted earlier, i had just seen the link you pasted | 03:21 |
| html | OldSchool, pastebin? [you can edit the old ones | 03:21 |
| TylerE | god this crap was so much easier 15 years ago with OSS | 03:21 |
| OldSchool | Well that's the thing. I set it up years ago and have been running Ubuntu 12.10 then I tried to update it last night and the trouble began. So I don't remember a lot of things from 3 years ago. | 03:21 |
| html | OldSchool, well the easiest and most reckless way is to wipe the linux side and do a fresh install to 14.04 | 03:23 |
| html | TylerE, what do yo mean? | 03:23 |
| Bashing-om | eeee: OldSchool //Nuke the raid meta data ?? and try and fix the partition table ?? | 03:23 |
| OldSchool | html: I just verified that the files in my home directory are safe, so I don't have a problem with that. Can I do anything cool with a 64 GB solid state disk since I don't need it for a Windows cache drive anymore? | 03:24 |
| TylerE | html: I want to output 44.1/16 via my SP-DIF. I don't want Pulse to try to idle the connection (because that causes my receiver to make an annoying click) I don't want pule to muck with volume I don't want pulse to redirect anything | 03:24 |
| OldSchool | like maybe put the /boot partition on it or something? | 03:24 |
| html | TylerE, oh.. well hang around for a bit someone may know what to do. during that time try to google it.. | 03:26 |
| sydney | OldSchool: Yes,you could | 03:26 |
| OldSchool | what is the best way to get max performance using the SSD? use it as /boot? or is there a better idea? | 03:27 |
| sydney | OldSchool: us it as / | 03:27 |
| html | OldSchool, well using a ssd as the boot drive would have many positives, then the raid and handle your data, which is meant to do. | 03:27 |
| OldSchool | html: I give up on RAID. from what I hear, Ubuntu hates motherboard-based RAID. Last time, people on IRC made fun of me and said my RAID was fake. | 03:28 |
| html | OldSchool, you have to do things[configure] a bit differently when you install something/store data | 03:28 |
| OldSchool | I wound up segregating my dual-boot so only Windows 7 used the raid | 03:28 |
| html | OldSchool, huh? fake.. its doable... | 03:29 |
| OldSchool | I had a bunch of people say the same thing, then they eventually all gave up. | 03:29 |
| OldSchool | they were hooking into my computer with X11VNC and all sorts of stuff | 03:30 |
| OldSchool | So I don't want to put myself through that again. This was back in 2012 since Ubuntu 12.04 was out. | 03:30 |
| html | OldSchool, x11vnc? ------teamveiwer ??--- | 03:34 |
| OldSchool | yes. The linux version that does the same thing. | 03:34 |
| html | OldSchool, well i need your hardware setup | 03:34 |
| html | yes oh course.. | 03:34 |
| html | i use teamveiwer on everyting | 03:35 |
| html | amlost anything i can. | 03:35 |
| html | OldSchool, would you want to voip chat with me? | 03:36 |
| OldSchool | html: I am typing up my hardware setup now. I would VOIP chat, but my internet sucks. I am lucky to get 35 kB/second downloads | 03:36 |

| html | lol then mumble would work fine | 03:37 |
| Blaster | Hey guys. | 03:38 |
| Blaster | I have an external HDD which automatically mounts itself as fuseblk, but I need the www-data to be able to read data from it. | 03:38 |
| Blaster | How can I remount it so I can allow that to happen? | 03:39 |
| teward | Blaster: maybe this will help? http://askubuntu.com/questions/11840/how-do-i-use-chmod-on-an-ntfs-or-fat32-partition | 03:43 |
| html | ahhh bacon and groups? | 03:43 |
| Blaster | teward: Touche. Thanks. | 03:44 |
| Blaster | Now I just need to figure out what “-o rw,auto,user,fmask=0022,dmask=0000” means. | 03:44 |
| royadev | Hi everyone!! | 03:47 |
| sydney | I don't understand it,my keyboard acts like i don't type correctly. its forgets halfof the kes i type? | 03:47 |
| sydney | keys* | 03:47 |
| teward | Blaster: rw = read write, auto = automatic mount, user = mounting by users is permitted, fmask = umask applied to regular files, dmask = umask applied to directories. umask = bit mask of the permissions that are NOT present. (i.e. 0022 = 755 basically) | 03:48 |
| teward | Blaster: courtesy of the manpage - http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/mount.8.html | 03:48 |
| sydney | it just makes no sense.Or is it fixed now? | 03:48 |
| Blaster | teward: You da man! | 03:48 |
| teward | Blaster: helps when you're in the right channels ;) | 03:48 |
| Blaster | I just have to get the UUID of that external so I can add an fstab entry. | 03:48 |
| teward | Blaster: FWIW though, the manpages are useful :) | 03:49 |
| Blaster | Yeah I was reading it, I'm looking at the Mount options for ntfs right now. | 03:49 |
| sydney | hmm,i think its fixed. :) | 03:50 |
| Blaster | My device is located at /dev/sdc1 but `blkid /dev/sdc1` doesn't give an output. | 03:51 |
| Blaster | Trying to get the UUID. | 03:51 |
| Blaster | Okay I could see it by doing `ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid` and it says it's like `10408FCA808FBA54`. | 03:52 |
| Blaster | That doesn't even look like a UUID to me teward. | 03:52 |
| gr33n7007h | Blaster, just blkid, see what pops up | 03:53 |
| Blaster | Read ^. | 03:53 |
| Blaster | I did blkid and nothing came up. | 03:53 |
| teward | Blaster: sudo blkid | 03:53 |
| Blaster | Wise. | 03:54 |
| Blaster | So apparently that is the UUID. Doesn't look like any of the ones I have seen before though. | 03:54 |
| Blaster | teward: The man pages don't even mention the fmask and dmask options, all I see is uid, gid, and umask. | 03:59 |
| teward | Blaster: true i was answering your question earlier ;) | 03:59 |
| teward | uid = user id, gid = group id, umask = permissions mask of what isn't present (like before) | 04:00 |
| Blaster | That askubuntu answer says to use those. | 04:00 |
| Blaster | fmask and dmask. | 04:00 |
| teward | Blaster: use whichever, but before making an fstab entry try just providing them as mount options | 04:00 |
| teward | note experimentation sometimes bricks drives | 04:01 |
| Blaster | teward: What do you mean by "permissions mask of what isn't present". | 04:01 |
| teward | (NTFS and UNIX file permissions are always going to be problematic like this) | 04:01 |
| teward | Blaster: did you see my initial answer to your first question of what the arguments meant? | 04:01 |
| Blaster | There is sensitive data on this drive. | 04:01 |
| Blaster | Yes. | 04:01 |
| teward | [2014/09/14 23:48:02] <teward> Blaster: ... umask = bit mask of the permissions that are NOT present. (i.e. 0022 = 755 basically) | 04:01 |
| teward | and with that, sleep time, it's late | 04:02 |
| Blaster | I just don't get what you mean by not present. | 04:02 |
| Blaster | Okay. | 04:02 |
| Blaster | Thanks for the help! | 04:02 |

| DonkeyHotei | found active blur under dash blur, no effect | 06:01 |

| wafflejock | SP33D: maybe something like tail -f /var/log/*.log | 06:33 |
| wafflejock | or even tail -f /var/log* | 06:34 |

| rcmaehl_webchat | How do I use bluetooth for things OTHER than file transfers on Ubuntu? | 06:34 |
| wafflejock | rcmaehl_webchat: not sure just been fiddling with the bluetooth audio but it doesn't do everything I want it to | 06:35 |
| sjoshi | Hello, I am getting Kernel panic! where i can find and provide more information on this | 06:35 |
| wafflejock | rcmaehl_webchat: what are you trying to do in particular | 06:35 |
| Mathuin | rcmaehl_webchat: it "just works" with PS3 controllers and Steam if you install qtsixa and pair the controllers. | 06:35 |
| rcmaehl_webchat | wafflejock: mainly tethering over bluetooth | 06:35 |
| wafflejock | rcmaehl_webchat: oh that actually just seems to work out of the box on Ubuntu Gnome, I just go to the settings panel open bluetooth and paired my phone it asked if I wanted it to add it as a PAN device for data I said yes and now it's an option in my wifi panel | 06:36 |
| rcmaehl_webchat | So I need ubuntu gnome :| | 06:36 |
| rcmaehl_webchat | or whatever package it uses | 06:36 |
| wafflejock | rcmaehl_webchat: don't think so | 06:37 |
| wafflejock | yeah | 06:37 |
| wafflejock | maybe some packages | 06:37 |
| rcmaehl_webchat | which is like 1 out of a couple hundred | 06:37 |
| wafflejock | yeah PAN is just a toggle button in my bluetooth settings panel | 06:37 |
| wafflejock | er checkbox whateves | 06:37 |
| wafflejock | rcmaehl_webchat: it's in the gnome-control-center | 06:39 |
| wafflejock | but not sure if that automatically includes all the bluetooth parts needed or that panel in particular | 06:40 |
| waykool99 | i'm testing Lubuntu v14.04.4 both amd64 and i386. in GUI can Xfce and/or Gnome 2 or 3 co-exist with LXDE? | 06:44 |

| === Omicron is now known as Guest22647 | ||
| waykool99 | gr33n7007h thank you. | 06:50 |
| gr33n7007h | waykool99, to choose your default use update-alternatives --config x-session-manager | 06:52 |
| waykool99 | i love this Lubuntu. reminds of years ago using knoppix live cd/dvd. has the same look and feel. can multi-task many programs at once. pound swappiness = 10 keeps crashes down. | 06:52 |
| waykool99 | *keeps crashes down | 06:53 |
| waykool99 | really? thx again | 06:53 |
| waykool99 | i have to ask... where is the real Swappiness setting? spent hours looking. no luck. | 06:54 |
| neredsenvy | Is there a way to rename all files in folder from terminal ? I have bunch of files randomly named and would like to name them 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,.... | 06:57 |
| neredsenvy | I really don't want to thinker in C right now | 06:57 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest56505 | ||
| somsip | neredsenvy: write a bash script. something like COUNT=1; for file in ./ do; mv $file $COUNT; done; That probably won't work but gives you the idea | 06:59 |
| === FlannelKing is now known as Flannel | ||
| wafflejock | I typically default to Java with stuff like that but yeah bash is probably the easiest way | 07:01 |
| pooky | I'm trying to recompile the php5 package to include some additional flags, but after it finishes it tries to run some mysql tests which fail. When I've looked into the issue online it says it's related to app armor. I tried adding the path to apparmor but it has not cleared up the issue. Any suggestions or advice? | 07:02 |
| waykool99 | does "freshclam" normally have giant downloads, 100% CPU, 98% RAM, 20% Swap, pc lag? | 07:04 |
| waykool99 | yet freshclam doesn't use much CPU cycles. | 07:06 |
| wafflejock | waykool99: not sure about all of that but clamav definitely takes a lot of memory | 07:07 |
| waykool99 | in Task Manager, trying to figure out what's "Nice", "Priority"? | 07:08 |
| waykool99 | waffle yes you're correct | 07:08 |
| === Guest22647 is now known as Omnicron | ||

| neredsenvy | when i do sudo ./rename.sh | 07:10 |
| neredsenvy | well command not found to be correct | 07:10 |

| === quark is now known as Guest31408 | ||
| waykool99 | waffle, again thx. after typing my brains out, you just answered my question. lol | 07:11 |
| wafflejock | waykool99: np there is a nice explanation of it on wikipedia too http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix) | 07:13 |
| damccull | so I want to do a fresh install of 14.04. I backed up my home folder, but now I want to back up my software selection so I can tell it to automatically reinstall somehow on the back end. I would like to do this without a gui. Can someone point me in the right direction? | 07:13 |
| waykool99 | again thank you Wafflejock. BTW kool name. :) | 07:13 |
| wafflejock | damccull: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17823/how-to-list-all-installed-packages | 07:13 |
| wafflejock | waykool99: hehe thanks so like it some don't been using it for like 17 years though so probably won't change :) | 07:14 |
| damccull | why dpkg instead of apt-get or aptitude? | 07:15 |
| wafflejock | damccull: apt-get uses dpkg anyhow I'm pretty sure | 07:15 |
| damccull | oic | 07:15 |
| wafflejock | there's quite a few ways to go about it in that SO post though | 07:16 |
| waykool99 | so Nice Processes started from France beautiful land and fine wine. no offense to California wine, which i love. | 07:16 |
| wafflejock | typically I just do it myself I don't have a million packages and it gives me a chance to clean up | 07:16 |
| wafflejock | damccull: also if you just backup your .config folders in your home folder you can usually see what you had installed and just get the latest of that | 07:17 |
| damccull | what .config folder? | 07:17 |
| wafflejock | damccull: if you have a NAS or external drive use clonezilla to get a full snapshot or rsync to copy your home folder and whatever else you might want first | 07:17 |
| wafflejock | damccull: just mean general dot files in your home folder | 07:18 |
| damccull | ah i see | 07:18 |
| waykool99 | years ago apt-get autoremove -or- Janitor used to trash libcssdvd2. (spelling) | 07:18 |
| wafflejock | damccull: the hidden files for various programs like .filezilla or whatever | 07:18 |
| damccull | actually i can't NAS this :( It's a remote server | 07:18 |
| damccull | aside from my home dir, where else might i want to save configuration from? | 07:18 |
| wafflejock | damccull: ah well you should be able to still rsync, is it a VPS? if so usually you have a snapshot option | 07:18 |
| wafflejock | damccull: /etc/ will have other config stuff at a system level | 07:19 |
| damccull | it's a vps yes. I have taken a backup, but I still have to download my stuff cause my provider doesn't have a way to mount backups as readable | 07:20 |
| damccull | and i need to image the vps with their 14.04 template | 07:20 |
| wafflejock | damccull: ah gotcha, can't just spin up an extra instance for transferring things? | 07:20 |
| damccull | wafflejock: i spose if i wanted to pay for another instance this month ;) | 07:20 |
| waykool99 | i have lots of spare ATA/SATA drives. is it possible to create an "image" or DVD ISO or even save a great install to another empty HD? | 07:20 |
| wafflejock | damccull: well shouldn't be for the whole month you using DO or AWS? | 07:21 |
| damccull | some magic with 'dd' does it waykool99 but i don't know how | 07:21 |
| damccull | wafflejock: togglebox | 07:21 |
| neredsenvy | Anyone able to help me with my bash script to rename all my image files to 1,2,3.jpg ... ? https://gist.github.com/anonymous/3b91660307755df1f9f8 I get command not found error trying to call ./rename.sh | 07:21 |
| waykool99 | hm. ok. | 07:21 |
| damccull | it's not that it would cost the hwole month | 07:21 |
| wafflejock | just sayin it's good to have a plan for how you can get stuff back that you forgot to back up, it's all good I like to save money too :) | 07:21 |
| damccull | it's just annoying to do. they don't have an automatic "clone this machine" button, and to create a new instance I'd have to purchase more resources, spin up a new one, then move everything, shut down this one, release these resources... annoying :) | 07:22 |
| wafflejock | yeah gotcha | 07:22 |
| damccull | but they're CHEAP | 07:22 |
| damccull | AWS wants ALL my monies :( | 07:22 |
| damccull | also MS and google | 07:22 |
| wafflejock | haha just googled it says Cheap cloud hosting :) | 07:22 |
| damccull | i pay like 9 bucks a month | 07:23 |
| waykool99 | yes, i know in ubuntu studio v10.04 Terminal lets you Rename new tabs and/or windows. in this Lubuntu, can't find one so far. sorry, | 07:23 |
| wafflejock | damccull: yeah that's around digital ocean prices | 07:23 |
| damccull | whos' that | 07:23 |
| wafflejock | damccull: AWS is definitely more I pay around $30 a month | 07:23 |
| wafflejock | http://digtalocean.com/ | 07:23 |
| damccull | oh my bad. 19 bucks amonth | 07:23 |
| wafflejock | https://www.digitalocean.com/ | 07:23 |
| wafflejock | misspell | 07:23 |
| damccull | 10gb space, 2gb ram. know a better place for me? | 07:24 |
| wafflejock | DO you can get for $5 a month check the last link might be good | 07:24 |
| damccull | k | 07:24 |
| damccull | i like togglebox's capabilites but i don't really use it to the extent it's useful for | 07:24 |
| wafflejock | eh yeah same with AWS for me, it can do way more than I need most of the time | 07:25 |
| wafflejock | but I like the ability to scale things relatively easily, expanding the box size and starting a new instance wasn't too bad when I needed it | 07:25 |
| damccull | wow DO is nice | 07:25 |
| wafflejock | started with a micro instance for free for a year | 07:25 |
| wafflejock | yeah DO is pretty decent | 07:25 |
| wafflejock | if I didn't setup AWS first I would have probably gone DO | 07:25 |
| damccull | AWS seems hard. Don't you ahve to write scripts and use APIs to do all the stuff? | 07:25 |
| wafflejock | no their interface is okay once you get used to it you can do most things there | 07:25 |
| wafflejock | the scripts are nice thing though if you want to automate the backup, upgrade process | 07:26 |
| damccull | hmm | 07:26 |
| wafflejock | it's just a lot of AWS specific terminology | 07:26 |
| wafflejock | EBS EC2 S3 etc. etc. | 07:26 |
| damccull | what about storage? i thought you had to have a separate storage plan from the main box | 07:26 |
| wafflejock | I have an EBS backed instance, so it's all under one account and I basically created a volume that lives beyond the life of the EC2 instance | 07:27 |
| wafflejock | it is more complicated for sure | 07:27 |
| damccull | hmm | 07:27 |
| damccull | yeah sounds lame. :) | 07:27 |
| damccull | definitely not what i need | 07:27 |
| wafflejock | haha yeah if I had the option of DO at the time I would have done it instead | 07:27 |
| malkaunsn | hi | 07:27 |
| === malkaunsn is now known as malkauns | ||
| damccull | does DO do windows if i need it? | 07:28 |
| wafflejock | actually don't know about that | 07:28 |
| wafflejock | not something that came to mind for me since I never use IIS servers | 07:28 |
| waykool99 | i messed up the Cylinder count in GParted/Testdisk. when you do a clean install, does it automatically fix the CHS? | 07:28 |
| Tex_Nick | guess i'm just old-school, but seems to me that archiving locally is just so simple ,,, so inexpensive & so fast ... why do it on the cloud | 07:28 |
| damccull | wafflejock: i don't anticipate ever needing widnows, and if I do, I always have azure | 07:29 |
| damccull | which i like anyways | 07:29 |
| wafflejock | Tex_Nick: well I use it for a web/email server | 07:29 |
| cfhowlett | Tex_Nick, 3 level archive??? one local / close at hand, one remote and one ... elsewhere? | 07:29 |
| damccull | i use it for a mumble/teamspeak server, minecraft, mud | 07:31 |

| cfhowlett | Tex_Nick, true true. how about "owncloud" ? | 07:32 |
| waykool99 | "iconify". thats a new word to me. says "left click to iconify all windows. middle click to shade(???) | 07:32 |
| wafflejock | still have to run the owncloud somewhere | 07:32 |
| waykool99 | thinks Shade is like the old Roll Up in gnome 2. | 07:33 |
| wafflejock | yeah linux guys just make up words :) valmorfinize your iconified windows | 07:33 |
| waykool99 | lol | 07:33 |
| wafflejock | shade is a relatively typical term though | 07:33 |
| wafflejock | just roll up the window into the titlebar | 07:34 |
| waykool99 | new words started with that Unity thingy. | 07:34 |
| damccull | I like DO's prices better atm | 07:34 |
| damccull | i'm just gonna spin up a new server there and transfer | 07:34 |
| damccull | i wonder how their support it | 07:34 |
| damccull | is | 07:34 |
| wafflejock | damccull: yeah if you want a promo code for $10 they have em at jupiterbroadcasting.com I think | 07:34 |
| wafflejock | damccull: they are one of the advertisers for the shows there | 07:35 |
| wafflejock | that's how I know about em at all | 07:35 |
| waykool99 | thinks my Netgear router firmware got trashed somehow. SSID used to say Netgear or Netgear-Guest. now it says NTGR_E | 07:36 |
| waykool99 | did 4 factory resets with the pin. | 07:37 |
| Tex_Nick | cfhowlett: I hear ya man & you make a good point ... however cloud just freaks me out ... how do I know who has access to it ... I know it's encrypted but ??? | 07:38 |
| waykool99 | just got a oboom account. i worry also. | 07:39 |
| wafflejock | Tex_Nick: there is a service that encrypts it locally with a key you only have before sending it I'm having trouble remembering it | 07:39 |
| gr33n7007h | neredsenvy, does it have to be in bash? | 07:39 |
| wafflejock | Tex_Nick: the guys on BSD Now talk about it one of the shows on the site I put above too | 07:39 |
| neredsenvy | gr33n7007h: Fixed alreayd | 07:39 |
| cfhowlett | Tex_Nick, these days I assume all data and internet services are completely compromised ... excuse me. must adjust hat foil. | 07:39 |
| gr33n7007h | ah, ok | 07:40 |
| wafflejock | cfhowlett: best policy | 07:40 |
| waykool99 | best i know of, sendspace.com off an island in country of Greece. paid them for 10 years until Snowden/NSA story broke. | 07:40 |
| Tex_Nick | cfhowlett: ^5 man ;))) | 07:40 |
| wafflejock | but same can be said for data in a computer | 07:40 |
| trijntje | wafflejock: I ended up using lightdm to run the script on logout, as explained here http://askubuntu.com/questions/293312/execute-a-script-upon-logout-reboot-shutdown-in-ubuntu . bash_logout only works when you logout from the command line | 07:40 |

| wafflejock | trijntje: ah good to know | 07:41 |
| wafflejock | trijntje: so you got it solved then though eh? | 07:41 |
| wafflejock | trijntje: how'd you configure lightdm to trigger it on logout? | 07:41 |
| damccull | that was WAAAAAY too easy to spend money on a server :D | 07:41 |

| abc-phone | sorry | 07:46 |
| waykool99 | good on-the-fly task manager | 07:46 |
| Vladimir_ | my boss says I shouldn't run crontab in a nevending loop and instead use crontab just to execute ?:/ | 07:46 |
| laul | get the process name and then type `pkill junkscript.sh` | 07:46 |
| abc-phone | i have never met cases like this | 07:47 |
| === mist__ is now known as mist | ||
| abc-phone | laul, yes | 07:47 |
| Vladimir_ | I van' | 07:47 |
| Vladimir_ | I can't understand the difference between loop and executions by Crontab? | 07:47 |
| Vladimir_ | doesn | 07:47 |
| Vladimir_ | doesn't crontab always loop | 07:48 |
| somsip | Vladimir_: crontab executes at a set time, or interval. The script it calls can either run once, or loop | 07:48 |
| Vladimir_ | u set crontab to execute a script or wharever at a specific time | 07:48 |
| Vladimir_ | oh you mean like that | 07:49 |
| Vladimir_ | yeah I understand | 07:49 |
| damccull | ok...how can I scp my entire home folder to a new machine? :) | 07:49 |
| Vladimir_ | oh yeah, the script it runs is a while loop... I should just get rid of the loop | 07:50 |
| somsip | Vladimir_: so if you call a looping script every minute, after an hour you have 60 instances of the script running | 07:50 |
| somsip | Vladimir_: probably | 07:50 |
| somsip | damccull: -r for recursive | 07:50 |
| damccull | thanks | 07:50 |
| wafflejock | damccull: should be pretty straightforward scp -r /home/myuser your_username@remotehostip:/home/myuser | 07:51 |
| Dan``` | Hey guys. I am having immense trouble with trying to get Ubuntu to recognise my screen. As it is, it boots and LightDM shows in a lower resolution (1024x768), I can login and it will stay with that resolution until I manually use xrandr to resize to the appropriate resolution (1920x1080). This occurs no matter the driver I use, nvidia or (preferably) nouveau. I have tried configuring X to no avail. Please help, thanks! | 07:51 |
| Vladimir_ | this is what it looks like somsip : http://pastebin.com/AtUPsLQw | 07:51 |
| damccull | sweet. | 07:51 |
| damccull | seems to be working. | 07:51 |
| === sR is now known as Guest98201 | ||
| damccull | i spose it won't keep execute perms though will it? | 07:52 |
| Dan``` | I should also mention that when I log out, LightDM will resize to 1024x768. | 07:52 |
| wafflejock | damccull: not sure how the permissions stuff moves over exactly you might have to chown some stuff | 07:52 |
| damccull | username is the same so i hope not | 07:52 |
| somsip | Vladimir_: remove the loop in the script and run the cronjob every 10 mins will probably do what you are trying to achieve | 07:52 |
| Vladimir_ | somsip: like this: http://pastebin.com/x2wSZPhc | 07:52 |
| wafflejock | damccull: well think it's based on the user id possibly not just the name itself but really not sure how scp handles that | 07:53 |
| damccull | aside from putty, what's the favored (free) ssh term? | 07:53 |
| damccull | for windows | 07:53 |
| somsip | Vladimir_: yes, but with better formatting and maybe a comment | 07:53 |
| wafflejock | putty | 07:53 |
| wafflejock | haha | 07:53 |
| damccull | no tabs in putty :( also stores sites in registry :( | 07:53 |
| wafflejock | damccull: I suppose you can use cygwin | 07:53 |
| damccull | mainly it's the registry i hate | 07:53 |
| wafflejock | damccull: I've always just used putty though | 07:53 |
| damccull | i use mobaxterm atm but looking for a better one | 07:54 |
| wafflejock | yea dunno been out of Windows as a main environment for a while | 07:54 |
| damccull | yeah i can't do that | 07:54 |
| laul | run a vm? | 07:54 |
| damccull | until i can run ALL my games and also C# in linux | 07:54 |
| damccull | and by C# i mean visual studio | 07:55 |
| * damccull hugs C#. Hugs it real good | 07:55 | |
| wafflejock | damccull: well that'll never happen I just have another box for gaming stuff, but that's changing over some | 07:55 |
| Vladimir_ | somsip: better formatting? | 07:55 |
| damccull | steambox is really making a huge push into linux | 07:55 |
| damccull | i like that | 07:55 |
| wafflejock | yea it's nice | 07:55 |
| somsip | Vladimir_: if you are coding for someone who is paying your wages, at least try to make the code be well formatted and informative (use comments) | 07:56 |
| damccull | ok is there a way to do winodws-like ACLs on files in linux? the linux permissions just seems so old and not granular enough | 07:56 |
| damccull | rwx you know? that' sit? | 07:56 |
| Vladimir_ | somsip: alright=) thank you | 07:56 |
| wafflejock | damccull: well the permissions in windows files are the same really it's just the AD part that's missing I think | 07:57 |
| damccull | Vladimir_: if you are coding, at least try to make the code be well formatted and informative (use comments) | 07:57 |
| Vladimir_ | somsip: it's an internship, I should do it as proffesionally as possible=) | 07:57 |
| wafflejock | damccull: also you can use something like this http://windowtabs.com/ there are a few variations of this out there to add windows inside of tabs that are running whatever | 07:57 |
| damccull | wafflejock: sorry, i didn't mean rwx really. I meant how you can do 'me, group, everyone' only | 07:58 |
| damccull | instead of individual users and principles | 07:58 |
| === ogra_ is now known as ogra | ||
| wafflejock | damccull: right that part is just different, I mean you still have rwx for owner group and others but the groups part doesn't seem to have any GUI management | 07:59 |
| Tex_Nick | damccull: you could also use nautilus for such transfers ... nautilus sftp://userName@nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn/path ... nautilus will open on the remote box | 07:59 |

| wafflejock | damccull: right yeah I follow, aside from making a group for those users and giving the directory ownership to that group you don't have a way to directly say this user has permission | 08:02 |
| damccull | but i don't know how to...or how well it would perform | 08:02 |

| wafflejock | I haven't messed with this but am interested in AD alternatives | 08:11 |
| damccull | hmmm | 08:11 |
| damccull | wafflejock: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO | 08:12 |
| wafflejock | I think AD and exchange are two things that keep people locked into the windows server ecosystem | 08:12 |
| damccull | and MS office | 08:12 |
| wafflejock | postfix is alright but doesn't cover everything exchange does with regard to calendar sharing | 08:12 |
| wafflejock | I think MS office isn't as big a deal with Google Docs and LibreOffice | 08:12 |
| damccull | neither gdocs nor libreoffice truly compete :( | 08:13 |
| damccull | gdocs is less | 08:13 |
| wafflejock | yeah it depends on the use case | 08:13 |
| damccull | and libre is ugly | 08:13 |
| === Owner_ is now known as Guest80966 | ||
| cfhowlett | wafflejock, I suspect msoft is equally concerned. | 08:13 |
| damccull | and users are like "EWW 1970s!" | 08:13 |
| cfhowlett | wafflejock, the ONE thing that users seems to fixate on is the MS Outlook integration with the suite and ease of use/familiarity | 08:14 |
| damccull | i hate outlook | 08:14 |
| damccull | give me gmail every da | 08:14 |
| damccull | y | 08:14 |
| wafflejock | cfhowlett: yeah I've been using Thunderbird and it's pretty good but like damccull is saying about the looks it just isn't there | 08:14 |
| cfhowlett | outlook is in the corporate blood. | 08:15 |
| wafflejock | still requires someone willing to tweak things and add plugins to do the same stuff, but can do a bit more it seems | 08:15 |
| wafflejock | yeah | 08:15 |
| damccull | the advantage MS has over linux, and always will, is a single, unified brand. They can integrate everything with everything else, make it work out of the box, and transparently to users. It's like the Apple of OS/Office | 08:16 |
| damccull | too bad they can't seem to get IE right | 08:16 |
| wafflejock | eh I dunno I really think Linux distros are getting better and better at creating a complete experience | 08:16 |
| wafflejock | I just switched between Unity on 12.04 and the Kubuntu using all the KDE stuff in 12.04 and now in Gnome on 14.04 and have played with Mint and some other distros/DEs and there's some pretty complete toolsets | 08:17 |
| damccull | they are, but they are still using programs written by 3rd parties, or having to write their own. Their teams, being much smaller, take much longer to write quality software that is super integrated | 08:17 |
| wafflejock | yeah it takes a long time but it's been like 22 years or something | 08:17 |
| damccull | haha | 08:18 |
| cfhowlett | damccull, that's the linux/unix development mantra ... each tool does ONE thing and does ONE thing well. kind of works AGAINST any meaningful/workable integration. | 08:18 |
| damccull | cfhowlett: i know :( but users generally don't want that. They want to click, drag, and copy/paste from anything to anything | 08:19 |
| wafflejock | cfhowlett: yeah but I don't think that's a problem we have lots of little tools that do one thing and do it well and if GUIs are built to wrap those tools that do one thing well together then you have outlook | 08:19 |
| wafflejock | Outlook started off as 4 separate applications in MS | 08:19 |
| wafflejock | they just smashed them together | 08:19 |
| damccull | i want libreoffice to look pretty like MS office, be completely integrated, and NOT HAVE OUTLOOK | 08:19 |
| damccull | god i hate outlook | 08:19 |
| damccull | it pisses me off that you HAVE to install it with office 2013 | 08:20 |
| wafflejock | that's pretty funny I don't think I've met someone who hates outlook so much, I always thought it was fine but I haven't used any of the recent versions | 08:20 |
| damccull | here's my linux wishlist: I want all my games native, ms office native (no outlook), and a super-quick snappy UI that looks REAL sharp and isn't hard to get to know or understand. it must be simple and elegant, but give me the tweak power I want under the hood. | 08:21 |
| wafflejock | cfhowlett: I have hopes that Qt or something like it will help to make building widgets that can be integrated into larger applications so we can more easily share and create robust GUIs using all the little underlying parts | 08:22 |
| damccull | wafflejock: lol yeah it's cause it's bloated, slow, ugly, and until VERY recently, did not organize my conversations | 08:22 |
| damccull | wafflejock: also i only use the 1 part of it: email | 08:22 |
| wafflejock | damccull: yeah it is kind of a heavy beast for email, though all the e-mail clients I've run are pretty heavy duty in terms of memory usage | 08:23 |
| Ben64 | this probably belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:23 |
| damccull | wafflejock: gmail is very light | 08:23 |
| damccull | ther's an offtopic channel? | 08:23 |
| wafflejock | damccull: yeah we can move the conversation there this should just be support, I just got chatty | 08:23 |

| atmosx | can I lock users from installing software? | 08:24 |
| damccull | and conversation | 08:24 |
| cfhowlett | atmosx, no need to lock. unless your user has sudo privilege, no installing software is permitted | 08:25 |
| atmosx | cfhowlett: okay | 08:25 |
| Ben64 | although that doesn't stop them from bringing or making their own binaries | 08:25 |
| atmosx | Ben64: hm, that's not an issue. They can't tell a windows from a linux laptop. It's just 2 installation for an office, windows 8 was kinda hard to come by (for avg users). | 08:26 |
| Tex_Nick | cfhowlett: re : 'that's the linux/unix development mantra ... each tool does ONE thing and does ONE thing well' ... hey what's deal with 'systemd' ? | 08:26 |
| cfhowlett | Tex_Nick, don't put me on the spot! :) | 08:27 |
| Tex_Nick | lol sorry sir ;) | 08:27 |
| cfhowlett | Tex_Nick, eeeeh, no you're not. But, it's OK. | 08:28 |
| damccull | one more quesiton before i go...how to add user to sudoers? also, where does "this incident" get "reported" to when you're not in it? | 08:29 |
| atmosx | damccull: root's email. You should set an alias from your admin to your user. | 08:29 |
| damccull | atmosx: what you mean by alias? | 08:30 |
| atmosx | damccull: well, you must have a sendmail-like system in your server | 08:30 |
| damccull | probably. I see what you're saying. It's just me on the server, no other, and I don't know how to read the mail anyway s:D | 08:31 |
| atmosx | damccull: this sends email, instead of sending emails to user 'root', you could re-direct the emails to your a predefined user using aliases | 08:31 |
| atmosx | lol | 08:31 |
| atmosx | it's your server? | 08:31 |
| damccull | yes | 08:31 |
| atmosx | apt-get install mutt | 08:31 |
| atmosx | sudo su - | 08:31 |
| atmosx | mutt | 08:31 |
| atmosx | hm, that goes better as: sudo su - ...then apt-get install mutt && mutt | 08:32 |
| atmosx | or just type 'mail' | 08:32 |
| atmosx | thse HDD laptops are slow to death | 08:32 |
| damccull | why sudo su - instead of sudo install? | 08:33 |
| wafflejock | atmosx: yeah after SSD HDD feels like molasses | 08:34 |
| wafflejock | damccull: thanks for the AD Samba link too just browsing through it now | 08:34 |
| damccull | wafflejock: np. i remember reading about that like a year ago in some obscure place or other. never thought I'd need it :D | 08:35 |
| wafflejock | damccull: yeah would be good for a non-profit I do some IT work for that is currently paying way too much for a remote IIS server for exchange and has a DC in house that is going to die one of these days | 08:36 |
| atmosx | Now I want the admin to have the menu in English, becuase it's easier while the users (2 of them) need Gnome translation Greek. Do I enter their accounts and just switch language? | 08:37 |
| damccull | does git-svn need subversion installed? | 08:37 |
| Tex_Nick | cfhowlett: I loved the mantra you phrased 'One Tool does One Thing Well' ... my concern is that 'systemd' is about to combine all those simple tools into a single Monolithic tool :( | 08:38 |
| atmosx | damccull: nope, but you're making this kind of question you're in the wrong distribution :-) SVN is a dependancy in order to be able to convert SVN repos to git | 08:38 |
| atmosx | IIRC git can read svn repos | 08:38 |
| damccull | HEH sorry I clicked the #git channel but i guess i didn't click hard enough | 08:39 |
| wafflejock | Tex_Nick: any resources I can check out about what you're saying about systemd rolling things together? | 08:39 |
| damccull | doesn't busybox already roll everything together? | 08:40 |
| wafflejock | Tex_Nick: just did some googling but it only looks like it combines two tools from what I can see on the surface at least | 08:40 |
| Tex_Nick | wafflejock: give me a minute or two ... brb | 08:40 |
| Tex_Nick | http://www.infoworld.com/d/data-center/systemd-harbinger-of-the-linux-apocalypse-248436 ... two pages | 08:42 |

| samthewildone | How do I remove a | uninstall a .run file and its packages... | 08:45 |
| samthewildone | I recently downloaded a .run from hp..open source and the drivers didn't work. | 08:45 |
| samthewildone | I did the "file name.run --help" but there isn't a removal option. | 08:46 |
| damccull | wtf is a .run? | 08:47 |
| wafflejock | damccull: sometimes vendors package scripts and give them a .run extension | 08:48 |
| wafflejock | damccull: nvidia does the same | 08:48 |
| damccull | werid | 08:48 |
| wafflejock | samthewildone: not sure you'd have to check out the README with the run file, for HP though I used mostly their open source stuff and it worked I just needed a script from HP for wireless scanning | 08:48 |
| samthewildone | damccull, windows equivalent to .exe | 08:49 |
| samthewildone | wafflejock, problem is I'm just connected my printer to my router but, router does not show printer in the devices configuration. | 08:49 |
| wafflejock | samthewildone: hmm strange typically the hplip package has all the stuff needed for wired printing | 08:50 |
| samthewildone | Printer works fine with direct connection to computer but, not when it is connected to the router. I contacted HP and they said pretty much all plug in play printers work with their EA6300 model. | 08:50 |
| damccull | samthewildone: so a .run is a binary file with a program entry point? | 08:50 |
| atmosx | Easiest way to connect to an Ubuntu computer remotely using a mac? :-) | 08:50 |
| samthewildone | damccull, something like that. | 08:50 |
| damccull | dumb | 08:50 |
| damccull | needs to be an exe then ;) | 08:50 |
| damccull | everyone knows what exe is | 08:51 |
| samthewildone | damccull, to uninstall that binary file they usually have a param like "--uninstall | --remove" | 08:51 |
| samthewildone | I know the nvidia installer has the function. | 08:51 |
| samthewildone | wafflejock, Again, once the printer is connect directly to computer, works like a charm. Once its connected directly to router its a ghost. | 08:52 |
| wafflejock | samthewildone: yeah not sure about the router based printing, I have the option on my router but I got a wireless printer anyhow so never used it | 08:52 |
| samthewildone | Earlier people were telling me that in order for this to work the printer has to be assigned a address. | 08:52 |
| wafflejock | samthewildone: probably not if it's being used via the USB on the router | 08:53 |
| wafflejock | it should be like a shared printer from the router | 08:53 |
| samthewildone | wafflejock, yeah... | 08:53 |
| samthewildone | wafflejock, that's what I thought. Once the router verified the printer it will automatically append the MAC / IP address. | 08:53 |
| samthewildone | So probably could be the cable ? | 08:53 |
| wafflejock | no idea really on that one... can you ssh into the router and check lsusb | 08:54 |
| samthewildone | nope | 08:54 |
| samthewildone | I don't even fully understand ssh yet. | 08:54 |
| samthewildone | why would I ssh into router ? | 08:54 |
| wafflejock | well if you ssh in then you can run lsusb and see the USB connected devices | 08:55 |
| wafflejock | yea dunno then... I went with a DDWRT based buffalo router last time in case I wanted to mess with that stuff but so far have just been happy with how it works :) | 08:55 |
| wafflejock | DDWRT has the option for SSHing in but I don't think it's a standard thing on home routers | 08:55 |
| samthewildone | ah Ha | 08:55 |
| samthewildone | found the uninstaller ! | 08:55 |
| samthewildone | it was "hp-uninstall" | 08:55 |
| wafflejock | ah nice | 08:55 |
| samthewildone | reason I'm uninstalling, ubuntu has one in their software repo. | 08:56 |
| Ben64 | should always check there first :) | 08:56 |
| wafflejock | yeah there is a hplip package for basic stuff and some hp toolbox gui parts | 08:56 |
| samthewildone | Ben64, now... I figured that out my friend. | 08:56 |
| samthewildone | First things first is I gotta figure out whats going on with the connection. | 08:56 |
| samthewildone | I think the only sensible thing to do is reset the router to fact default and try from there ? | 08:57 |
| wafflejock | samthewildone: yeah would need the manual for the router to help remotely any more I think | 08:57 |
| samthewildone | completely unrelated atm but, http://pastebin.com/KhfmBPcU | 08:58 |
| samthewildone | figured to post it to my account as archive... | 08:58 |
| Fuchs | hmm, any idea why lightdm would not display my prefered language / keyboard layout? It only displays de_DE, but I want ch (de_CH). The local is there and generated, every application is perfectly fine with it, only lightdm not. | 08:59 |
| samthewildone | If I'm going to reset the router I'm going to have to wait later in the day. | 08:59 |
| samthewildone | wafflejock, another problem I'm having is that my desktop does not show up in the router config. | 09:00 |
| samthewildone | Everything else in the house connected; except printer & my desktop, shows... | 09:00 |
| wafflejock | samthewildone: that's strange you mean you don't see it in the DHCP list? | 09:00 |
| samthewildone | nope | 09:00 |
| samthewildone | So thinking that the router must be reset anyway. | 09:00 |
| samthewildone | I'm able to see other wifi devices and my dad's hardline cable connected but, not mine. | 09:00 |
| wafflejock | yea assuming you didn't set any static IPs it should generally be in the list | 09:01 |
| samthewildone | At first I thought it was because I had encrypted my drive. | 09:01 |
| wafflejock | yeah shouldn't matter regarding the network/IPs though | 09:01 |
| wafflejock | the router should know what addresses it gave out | 09:01 |
| atmosx | I can create users without passwords! Awesome. | 09:02 |
| samthewildone | wafflejock, Yeah once the house is cleared of rodents (parents) I'll commit the hard reset. | 09:02 |
| samthewildone | atmosx, one kernel mod for you ! | 09:02 |
| * samthewildone passes atmosx a tasty kernel mod. | 09:02 | |
| damccull | a way to copy and chown at the same time? | 09:03 |
| samthewildone | wafflejock, I'm wondering though, should I install the drivers first or let the default ubuntu drivers do the work. | 09:03 |

| smart_developer | I was able to get logrotate to rotate my_log.log just fine (at the top of the hour), but it seems that my new (fresh, 0 Bytes) my_log.log isn't being written to. | 09:20 |
| smart_developer | I'm using rsyslog to direct log output to my_log.log. | 09:20 |
| smart_developer | Does anyone know what is going wrong here? Thanks. | 09:20 |
| ikonia | smart_developer: depends how you are logrotating the physical file | 09:20 |
| ikonia | smart_developer: if the file is closed, you'd need to hup syslog | 09:21 |
| smart_developer | hup syslog ? | 09:21 |
| smart_developer | and what do you mean "if the file is closed"? | 09:22 |
| ikonia | smart_developer: if you zero an open file syslog will keep logging, if you close and replace a file, syslog can't log to it as it's not opened by syslog | 09:22 |
| smart_developer | I'm using rsyslog to direct output to my_log.log, not syslog. | 09:23 |
| ikonia | I know | 09:23 |
| ikonia | please read what I said | 09:23 |
| wafflejock | Tex_Nick: yeah I've heard chatter about this thanks for the links | 09:23 |
| smart_developer | O | 09:23 |
| smart_developer | that O was a typo. | 09:24 |
| smart_developer | What I'm trying to say is that I'm confused because you kept mentioning syslog. | 09:24 |
| ikonia | syslog is the process that logs system messages | 09:24 |
| smart_developer | then what's rsyslog? | 09:24 |
| smart_developer | in relation to all of this. | 09:24 |
| smart_developer | thanks. | 09:24 |
| ikonia | rsyslog is the binary | 09:24 |
| smart_developer | So how would you "hup" syslog ? | 09:25 |
| smart_developer | and what do you mean by hup? | 09:25 |
| smart_developer | Let me post a link to my logrotate file for my_log.log. | 09:25 |
| ikonia | don't bother | 09:25 |
| ikonia | you ned to restart rsyslog | 09:26 |
| ikonia | normally this is part of the logrotate definition | 09:26 |
| smart_developer | From the man pages for logrotate, I'm not sure where in this logrotate definition file I would specify restarting rsyslog: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8349201/ | 09:27 |
| ikonia | smart_developer: then read the docs | 09:27 |
| smart_developer | (more specifically, what I would type there). | 09:27 |
| ikonia | first manually restart the syslog to prove it works/that is the problem | 09:28 |
| smart_developer | ok | 09:28 |
| ikonia | then read the logrotate docs about restarting a service as part of the definition | 09:28 |
| smart_developer | other than the man pages (which I've already read most of), which docs would you be referring to? | 09:29 |
| ikonia | the project documentation | 09:29 |
| smart_developer | ok | 09:29 |
| smart_developer | And also, I'm not sure about this approach of restarting rsyslog each time logrotate rotates my_log.log, since I don't know what impact it would have on the other logs (for instance, the system logs).... | 09:30 |
| smart_developer | would it fail to write some important log output while rsyslog is being restarted? | 09:30 |
| smart_developer | during that (brief) period of time...? | 09:31 |
| smart_developer | and if so, is there a more prudent method? | 09:31 |
| smart_developer | of rotating a log | 09:31 |
| ikonia | it will have the same impact | 09:31 |
| smart_developer | ikonia : okay, I see. | 09:32 |
| smart_developer | you mentioned something about how just zero-ing out a log would allow rsyslog to keep writing to it, without having to restart rsyslog. | 09:32 |
| ikonia | I think you need to read the documentation | 09:32 |
| smart_developer | Should I do this with logrotate? | 09:33 |
| ikonia | you appear to be trying to do this without the information | 09:33 |
| smart_developer | I'm reading them right now. | 09:35 |

| Slart_ | palci: just ask your question, if someone knows the answer they will hopefully answer | 11:01 |
| palci | My ubuntu freeze when I dont move with mouse / type any key. Video and sound freeze in loop. | 11:01 |
| palci | I tried reinstall ubuntu or install drivers but it wont help | 11:02 |
| nomic | does caps lock key still work | 11:02 |
| nomic | ie. . is completely rfrozen | 11:02 |
| Slart_ | if this was 15 years ago I would say it's a problem with interrupts... but not now | 11:02 |
| nomic | video on what | 11:03 |
| nomic | chrome / firefox -- what | 11:03 |
| palci | everything. Flash videos, Music palyer (audacious..) | 11:03 |
| nomic | since when -- have you always had the problem | 11:04 |
| Monkey_b | hey guys, i have a virtualbox with a service listening on port 7474 (verified this via netstat --listen), that doesn't respond to telnets from the host machine... other services (ssh, web, etc) respond, but not this one | 11:04 |
| Monkey_b | any thoughts? | 11:04 |
| nomic | moneyb : firewall | 11:04 |
| nomic | either on router or buntu | 11:04 |
| Monkey_b | nomic: its internal though, i dont have any software firewalls to my knowledge | 11:04 |
| nomic | if you haven't set one up on ubuntu it won't be that | 11:04 |
| Monkey_b | yea its mistifying me heh | 11:05 |
| palci | Since i changed old Pentium Dual Core for Core 2 Duo... Windows works properly | 11:05 |
| nomic | is telnet installed .. server | 11:05 |
| Monkey_b | yes, i can telnet to other ports | 11:05 |
| Monkey_b | i suppose i'll try to nmap it real quick see what shows up | 11:05 |
| Monkey_b | maybe i get a hint | 11:05 |
| nomic | why use that port | 11:06 |
| Monkey_b | its neo4j's (db) default port | 11:06 |
| nomic | palci -- check that there are no "hardware drivers" to install | 11:06 |
| nomic | you maybe need pinhole on router | 11:06 |
| Monkey_b | nmap from host box only shows listening on port 22/80/443... that's suspicious lol | 11:07 |
| Monkey_b | far too perfect i think | 11:07 |
| nomic | routers will not allow ports by default | 11:07 |
| Monkey_b | there must be iptables or something at play | 11:07 |
| ikonia | forget nmap | 11:07 |
| ikonia | unless you know how to use nmap - it can be missleading | 11:07 |
| Monkey_b | ok | 11:08 |
| Monkey_b | i dont know if its worth mentioning the machine in question is a vagrant ubuntu64 | 11:08 |
| nomic | vagrant? | 11:08 |
| Monkey_b | i suppose i'll ask the vagrant guys if the setup blocks ports by default | 11:08 |
| nomic | it lives in a cardboard box? | 11:08 |
| Monkey_b | well, for agility of deployment yes :P | 11:09 |
| ikonia | ughh vagrant, this explains a lot | 11:09 |
| TJ- | Monkey_b: Is the service listening on all interfaces (0.0.0.0) or an external interface (not 127.*) ? | 11:10 |
| Monkey_b | mmm TJ- thats an excellent question | 11:10 |
| Monkey_b | does netstat tell me or what might be a way to find that out | 11:11 |
| TJ- | Monkey_b: netstat shows the listening address; use "-n" to ensure you see numbers not names | 11:12 |

| hillary | ok thanks good people | 13:23 |
| MarkedOne | Bobbo: I had swap.. but after restart.. it is gone again.. | 13:23 |
| wheatthin | MarkedOne, did you define a swap partition in /etc/fstab? | 13:23 |
| wheatthin | and is it correct? | 13:23 |
| Bobbo | MarkedOne: I can't really help you with that. :3 | 13:23 |

| MarkedOne | cfhowlett: gimme a sec | 13:24 |
| MarkedOne | wheatthin: yes i did | 13:24 |
| wheatthin | So, it might be defined wrong.. cause it should automatically be entered. | 13:24 |
| MarkedOne | wheatthin: maybe. is there remote access in ubuntu ? | 13:25 |
| minimec | prawny: And... You would have to change to that mode afterwards in the monitors GUI... ;) I forgot to mention that... | 13:25 |
| wheatthin | MarkedOne, can you cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit | 13:25 |
| wheatthin | MarkedOne, Hmmm that's like saying is there SSH access available on linux.. .. most definitely there is. ) | 13:25 |
| wheatthin | :) | 13:26 |
| MarkedOne | cfhowlett: yes there is sda2 | 13:26 |
| prawny | minimec, good idea, but 60.30 failed too | 13:26 |
| MarkedOne | cfhowlett: sda2 8:2 0 4G 0 part | 13:26 |
| cfhowlett | MarkedOne, .... check the size - it should match the size you set for /swap | 13:26 |
| prawny | did i mention i'm on the proprietary nvidia drivers? not sure if it makes a difference | 13:27 |
| MarkedOne | wheatthin: is there something like online support.. so somebody can look at this ? | 13:27 |
| MarkedOne | cfhowlett: size should be 4,3GB and is only 4 | 13:28 |
| MarkedOne | i will do print screen | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | MarkedOne, actually with linux rounding that's likely correct. | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | yes please | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | MarkedOne, so if the partition is there, you just need to set and enable that partition as /swap per the ubottu /swap factoid | 13:29 |

| prawn | minimec i'm a bit rusty when it comes to x: how do i restart it quickly? i guess i'll have to get to a lower terminal with ctrl+alt+f2, then what? | 13:47 |
| minimec | prawn: I would stop or restart the lightdm service 'sudo service lightdm stop/start/restart' | 13:48 |

| minimec | MarkedOne: Can you unmount /dev/sda2? In that case I would then format it to swap... | 13:48 |
| prawn | really | 13:48 |
| prawn | REALLY | 13:48 |
| prawn | the f2 terminal thingy (I'm good with my linux vocab) shows up on the new monitor | 13:49 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: how to do it ? | 13:49 |
| enkilil | the links/icons are in the side menu but when I click on them...nothing happens :( | 13:49 |
| minimec | MarkedOne: mouse right click... ? | 13:50 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: i followed this tutorial.. http://punygeek.blogspot.sk/2012/10/ubuntu-1204-how-to-solve-disk-drive-for.html it help... but after restart swap has gone | 13:50 |
| minimec | prawn: I read you ;) | 13:50 |
| minimec | MarkedOne: Oh I see. You have crypted swap. Well I cannot helo you then... | 13:51 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: do you mean in gparted ? i dont have acces to sda2 in gui.. | 13:51 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: i want only crypted home folder.. not swap | 13:51 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: i dont need crypted swap.. i just want it to work.. | 13:52 |
| prawn | minimec adding the modes and extending the refresh rates in the xorg.conf didn't do the trick. | 13:52 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: i am running on 32bit cpu might that be problem ? i heard it cant work with more than 2 GB.... so 2GB RAM and 4 GB swap ? | 13:53 |

| === MrAlexanB is now known as MrAlexandro | ||
| minimec | MarkedOne: That is indeed a good question... | 13:55 |
| prawn | MarkedOne a 32bit CPU, or rather the 32bit operating system that runs on it, can use up to 4GB of RAM | 13:55 |
| prawn | or was it 3.2? | 13:55 |
| prawn | definately more than 2GB though. | 13:55 |
| minimec | MarkedOne: Should not be a problem. I agree... | 13:56 |
| MarkedOne | prawn: doesnt matter.. question is.. if it will handle 2GB ram and 4 GB SWAP ? | 13:56 |

| prawn | ah, good question then. | 13:57 |
| bajin-lee | how to install .tar software | 13:57 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: i just want encrypted home not swap.. dont know why is swap encrypted.. | 13:57 |
| === lborda is now known as lborda_ | ||
| minimec | MarkedOne: You seem to have '4GB unknown' on /dev/sda2. I you can unmount that drive, you might be able to format it again as swap. mouse right click in the gparted gui. | 13:58 |
| prawn | MarkedOne because some of the encrypted data from home might end up in swap one way or another... kinda breaks the concept | 13:58 |
| prawn | so, minimec, any more pointers for me? :/ | 13:59 |
| === sleipnir is now known as TLoFP | ||
| minimec | prawn: Is there a nvidia linux #channel on freenode? We are 'close and yet so far'... Hardware debugging can be crucial... | 14:00 |

| === lborda_ is now known as lborda__ | ||
| MarkedOne | prawn: hmmm you are right | 14:01 |
| MarkedOne | prawn: can i ask you ? is there a need to have encrypted home ? | 14:01 |
| prawn | minimec i'll look for one. | 14:01 |
| prawn | MarkedOne a need? depends on whether you suspect someone might want to look at your hard drive and what you want that person to (not) find | 14:02 |
| prawn | in general, there's no requirement for this. if you don't care about your privacy, leave away the encryption. the encrypton does not stop malware or people figuring out your password. | 14:03 |
| prawn | it only protects from people reading out the data from the harddisk via an alternative operating system. | 14:03 |
| minimec | MarkedOne: When it comes to 'speed', people will tell you to encrypt either the whole harddrive or 'nothing'. Only enrypting parts of the drive wil slow it down. | 14:03 |
| hillary | sorry give again the command for new release upgrade | 14:03 |
| prawn | and even then, you need a good password. | 14:03 |
| MarkedOne | minimec: so should i try to reinstall ubuntu without encryption ? | 14:04 |
| prawn | minimec i'll try #nvidia, which is unofficial but might be worth a shot | 14:04 |

| dupingping | can you help me? | 15:08 |
| cfhowlett | dupingping, because the great chinese firewall is getting better at blocking VPN's. | 15:08 |

| dupingping | but I manage the servers remotely. | 15:10 |
| dupingping | and the servers are in uk. | 15:11 |
| cfhowlett | dupingping, hmm. if you've got incoming traffic from VPN, best believe the BJ and CN authorities are tracking and / or throttling it. VPN's are becoming increasingly ineffective over time for that reason. proxy is also being strangled. | 15:11 |
| BluesKaj | so why aren/t you using the servers/ | 15:11 |
| dupingping | BluesKaj: the servers connect each other via VPN | 15:12 |

| jeffreylevesque | will latest ubuntu run on 32 bit, 4GB ram virtualized? | 15:33 |
| unclescratchie | eeee, use Broadcom 802.11 linux from bcml-kernel-source or Dont use device | 15:33 |
| eeee | supNow: releases.ubuntu.com i guess | 15:33 |
| eeee | !minimal | supNow | 15:33 |
| ubottu | supNow: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 15:33 |
| unclescratchie | eeee, tried that and lost wifi,,, had to revert and reboot | 15:33 |
| supNow | thanks, I'm going to try this as for some reason 3 dif USB sticks have been a fail even though they have worked in the past... | 15:34 |
| unclescratchie | eeee, very strange, and I dont know what to do......it is causing major lag | 15:35 |
| supNow | and I'd like to get a clean install rather than install 12.04 and upgrade | 15:35 |
| eeee | unclescratchie: lag you mean internet-wise ? or like apps take time to open? | 15:35 |
| eeee | unclescratchie: i thought you were talking about apps | 15:35 |
| unclescratchie | I use Blender and Inkscape... they are s l o w ..... also having a problem with chrome.....hard to scroll pages | 15:36 |

| mark__ | Struggling to install KVM offline, I'm getting a message saying "GCC is not present or not working", can anyone help with this? | 15:47 |
| ikonia | kvm should not need gcc | 15:48 |
| mark__ | Ikonia, it's when I'm trying to compile it | 15:48 |
| ikonia | why ? | 15:48 |
| ikonia | just use the packaged version | 15:48 |
| ikonia | it's proven/tested | 15:48 |
| YalBren | Hello I have a 10.04 fresh install server we want to upgrade to 12.04. But when we do do-release-upgrade with or without the -d it just says "No New releases found" any ideas.? | 15:49 |
| ikonia | why not install 12.04 or 14.04 if its a "fresh install" | 15:49 |
| ikonia | just install the version you need straight away | 15:49 |
| mark__ | Ikonia: I'm confused, I can't get the package if I'm disconnected to the internet can i? | 15:49 |
| ikonia | mark__: you obviously manged to get the kvm tar ball to compile it, so get the kvm package | 15:50 |
| mark__ | ikonia: sorry I'm confused, I downloaded from here http://sourceforge.net/projects/kvm/files/ then put it on usb to transfer, and then unpackaged, now I'm trying to configure. | 15:51 |
| mark__ | ikonia: I don't know any other way | 15:51 |
| Boltious | I had a quick question about some DNS settings in Ubuntu | 15:52 |
| micky_ | Hello all | 15:52 |
| ikonia | mark__: so do the same with the deb files | 15:53 |
| mark__ | ikonia: sorry, there's two sets of files? | 15:53 |
| ikonia | what ? | 15:53 |
| ikonia | mark__: do you understand how to use the ubuntu package manager ? | 15:53 |
| mark__ | Ikonia: no, | 15:53 |
| mark__ | ikonia: would that work offline? If it will I'll try and learn it | 15:54 |
| YalBren | ikonia: because it's a custom made distro and we haven't made the new one yet | 15:54 |
| TJ- | mark__: The kvm modules are part of the Ubuntu and mainline kernels - for the userspace packages, KVM has merged with QEMU, so you need to install package "qemu-kvm" : "sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm" | 15:54 |
| YalBren | Hello I have a 10.04 fresh install server we want to upgrade to 12.04. But when we do do-release-upgrade with or without the -d it just says "No New releases found" any ideas.? | 15:55 |
| mark__ | TJ: I understand that, and on a copy of ubuntu with a net connection, I can and have done this. I've got a server offline, not connected to the outside world, so I'm really confused as to how that will work. | 15:55 |
| TJ- | YalBren: d-r-u relies on the repostory hosting the meta-release files; if you operate a custom repo, you'll need to host the meta-release files too | 15:56 |
| Boltious | Hey guys, fresh install of 14.04 and I have users having issues with DNS. I have not set any DNS settings myself. Can anyone maybe shine some light on this? | 15:56 |
| micky_ | Question: My Ubuntu virtual machine crashed. Is there any sanity check I can / should do? | 15:56 |
| TJ- | mark__: See the package "apt-offline" | 15:56 |
| ikonia | YalBren: if it's a custom made distro it's not ubuntu | 15:56 |
| YalBren | TJ-: we don't host a custom repo, we have always had the ability to do-release-upgrade before it's just for some reason now it's not working | 15:57 |
| YalBren | ikonia: it's just scripts ran at the end | 15:57 |
| ikonia | YalBren: so then install 12.04 | 15:57 |
| ikonia | YalBren: or 14.04 | 15:57 |
| mark__ | TJ: looking now, sorry if I'm spamming this place. I'm quite new to linux. | 15:57 |
| YalBren | we can't | 15:57 |
| ikonia | if it's just scripts | 15:57 |
| ikonia | YalBren: why ? | 15:57 |
| ikonia | YalBren: if it's "nothing" as you say, then you can use 12.04, if it's not nothing as you say, you shouldn't be doing the upgrade process | 15:58 |
| YalBren | ikonia: because there's a whole process that needs to be done to approve it first and that takes months. | 15:58 |
| ikonia | YalBren: then the upgrade process is a risk | 15:58 |
| ikonia | and will still break | 15:58 |
| daftykins | Boltious: not until you explain the issue better, nope | 15:58 |
| ikonia | 12.04 by an upgrade is 12.04 as a clean install | 15:58 |
| ikonia | so if your scripts don't work on 12.04 - they won't work on 12.04 upgrade | 15:59 |
| YalBren | ikonia: either you can help or just stop. | 15:59 |
| ikonia | YalBren: ok - custom ubuntu spins are not supported here | 15:59 |
| ikonia | YalBren: if you want an official line | 15:59 |
| YalBren | ikonia: the same happens with a vanilla install | 15:59 |
| ikonia | YalBren: no it won't | 16:00 |
| ikonia | YalBren: as you can install 12.04 | 16:00 |
| YalBren | ikonia: it did | 16:00 |
| warsoul | im running ubuntu on virtualbox i only have resoultion 640x480 and can get a bigger one? | 16:00 |
| ikonia | YalBren: right because you need to point at the archive repo | 16:00 |
| ikonia | as 10.04 is eol | 16:00 |
| ikonia | !eolupgrade | YalBren | 16:00 |
| ubottu | YalBren: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 16:00 |
| YalBren | ikonia: I tried that and got the same result unfortunately | 16:00 |
| ikonia | YalBren: that's either a.) incorrect b.) something to do with your custom repo | 16:01 |
| minimec | warsoul: http://askubuntu.com/questions/22743/how-do-i-install-guest-additions-in-a-virtualbox-vm | 16:01 |

| Boltious | Hey guys, fresh install of 14.04 and I have users having issues with DNS. "/etc/resolv.conf" says my dns is 127.0.1.1, but DHCP is giving the correct dns servers. (and yes, /etc/resolv.conf is a symlink to ../run/resolvconf/resolv.conf) The output of netstat -an shows a representative system listening on tcp/udp 53. | 16:05 |
| pngl | I'm having touchpad issues since upgrading to 14.04. Despite being enabled, tap-to-click and 2-finger scrolling don't work. I've noticed that after a reboot, everything worked, and on the next boot it was gone again. I wasn't able to tie that to any particular configuration change before the 1st reboot. | 16:05 |
| tischendwarf | Jef91: There should be many guides for that online, just look up reinstalling grub or lilo or whatever boot loader you were using. | 16:06 |
| Jef91 | tischendwarf: there is something specific that needs to be done in terms of partitions I'm not finding in any guides | 16:06 |
| compdoc | tischendwarf, how many drives in the system, including usb drives? | 16:06 |
| Jef91 | Windows refuses to simply install to the open primary partition I made - so something else needs to be done apparently | 16:06 |
| tischendwarf | compdoc: 1 hard drive, 1 optical drive, 1 usb drive | 16:06 |
| ikonia | Jef91: it wants a small partition at the start of the disk | 16:07 |
| ikonia | assuming it's windows 7 | 16:07 |
| compdoc | you sure its not trying to write to the usb? | 16:07 |
| tischendwarf | Jef91: You might have to manually resize or repoisition some partitions, windows puts a small 100ish MB partition at the start of the drive | 16:07 |
| Jef91 | ikonia: Windows 8 so likely the same | 16:08 |
| testinguser1234 | Hello everybody | 16:08 |
| Jef91 | that is a PITA. Have several hundred gigs of data on the first partition | 16:08 |
| === PsiOmega is now known as AlphaBeta | ||
| Jef91 | Thanks for the heads up | 16:08 |
| tischendwarf | compdoc: absolutely. i've been selecting the option to manually partition and making sure to nuke the existing failed ext4 partition and reformat it as ext4 with a mountpoint of /, i'm sure its right because it has my win 7 partitions ahead of it | 16:08 |
| ikonia | Jef91: talk to the guys in ##windows - there maybe ways around it | 16:08 |
| testinguser1234 | I download Ubuntu14.04 and I mount it to a directory and I see that there is no netboot directory. Why is ubuntu-14.04 not having it? I want it for PXE server configuration. | 16:09 |

| YalBren | ikonia: same issue actually. Now my sources.list is as that site says and it still says No new releases found | 16:09 |
| ikonia | YalBren: works for many many many other people | 16:09 |
| ikonia | YalBren: if you do "sudo apt-get update" what happens | 16:09 |
| YalBren | ikonia: it updates | 16:10 |
| YalBren | the repos | 16:10 |
| YalBren | it just doesn't find an update release with do-release-upgrade | 16:10 |

| YalBren | ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8351391/ | 16:11 |
| ikonia | YalBren: ok, that looks good, so if you do apt-get distr-upgrade what happens | 16:12 |

| raub | And it then runs a local dns server that then talks to whatever dns server you are connected to | 16:28 |
| ikonia | mahem1_: /dev/random | 16:28 |
| raub | I believe the idea is so it looks transparent to your applications | 16:28 |
| pngl | Hi, i'm having trackpad issue since upgrading to 14.04. 2-finger scroll and tap-to-click don't work despite being enabled. It worked on 13.04. | 16:28 |

| sixwheeledbeast | having trouble with a fresh ubuntu install on a dell laptop. The odd thing is I have a unetbootin version that works fine booted on the USB. However, the installed version has no network devices. Any ideas? | 16:31 |
| daftykins | sixwheeledbeast: you probably installed with updates, try booting the older kernel as it may've installed another | 16:31 |
| sixwheeledbeast | daftykins: I did, is that a problem. AFAIK there is only one kernel option available | 16:32 |
| daftykins | sixwheeledbeast: yes, that'll explain why the installed version doesn't work but the live session does | 16:33 |
| sixwheeledbeast | is there a way to repair the installed version? | 16:34 |
| daftykins | sixwheeledbeast: you need to confirm the above first. | 16:36 |

| mahem1_ | ikonia: Hmmm, /dev/random kinda works but it seems to be constantly spewing random bits, so the file isn't static. Anyway around that? | 16:37 |

| sixwheeledbeast | daftykins: there is only 3.13.0-32 options available | 16:38 |
| daftykins | sixwheeledbeast: confirmed how? | 16:39 |
| sixwheeledbeast | daftykins: in grub | 16:40 |
| mahem1_ | ikonia: I could assign it to a variable, but what I really want is just a temp file without me having to create a temp fie. So if I did something like cat /dev/random it would print a number of random bits and then end. | 16:40 |
| daftykins | sixwheeledbeast: and is that the same as the live session kernel? | 16:40 |

| boriseto | Xcrox, you don't need it much. ;) I think it's disabled by default in Ubuntu (not sure about the 14.04 though). | 19:19 |
| debuser | i just want the computer to build my homeworks (programming in lazarus) | 19:19 |
| Xcrox | boriseto, i read somewhere in internet, is better to have swap than not to have xD | 19:25 |
| boriseto | Xcrox, well there you go. I use it because of low ram and that I use hibernation. | 19:25 |
| Xcrox | boriseto, do u use laptop? | 19:27 |
| boriseto | Xcrox, yeap. And I use it for gaming as well. :) | 19:28 |
| Xcrox | but hibernation for for pc really good? | 19:29 |
| boriseto | Xcrox, depends. For example whenever I go on long trips if I work on something and didn't quite finish it, I hibernate the laptop and continue when I get a power source. It basically stores everything from my RAM memory on the hard drive (the swap partition). And when I turn it on, it gets everything from swap and puts it in RAM, so I continue where I left off. | 19:32 |

| nusr | hi i'm trying to flush my dns on ubuntu. i did it for my winxp but i can't do it for 14.4. i did /etc/init.d/nscd restart but i'm getting command not found | 19:42 |
| ikonia | thats because nscd isn't installed | 19:42 |
| nusr | ok | 19:43 |
| nusr | is it sudo aptitude install nscd? | 19:43 |
| nusr | or sudo apt-get install nscd | 19:43 |
| tinkerbot | either or | 19:43 |
| ikonia | why do you want to install it ? | 19:43 |
| ikonia | you've just said you want to flush it, yet you didn't even know it wasn't installed | 19:43 |
| nusr | ok | 19:43 |
| ikonia | so if thats the case why do you want it ? | 19:43 |
| nusr | i'm trying to switch over the openDNS | 19:44 |
| ikonia | you don't need nscd for that | 19:44 |
| sfdebug | hi, i would like to install postfix package without run the config script that is prompted on the shell... does any one have idea how to do this? | 19:44 |
| nusr | i've configured opendns and the guide on opendns site say i should flush my dns cache | 19:44 |
| ikonia | nusr: right, so you don't need nscd | 19:44 |
| ikonia | as you don't have a caching daemon running | 19:44 |
| ikonia | so why do you want to install something you don't need/is't applicable | 19:45 |
| nusr | ok so there is not cache running so i don't need to flush anything | 19:45 |
| nusr | maybe just flush mozilla cache? | 19:45 |
| ikonia | nusr: right, it would not make sense to install a caching daemon to flush it | 19:45 |
| ikonia | nusr: no | 19:45 |
| ikonia | that's web cache, nothing to do with dns | 19:45 |
| nusr | ok i thought i set openDNS by following some instructions on the net but i checked my settings and it is still my isp dns | 19:46 |
| nusr | openISP has instructions for everything but linux | 19:46 |
| nusr | and i'm just getting info from websites | 19:47 |
| nusr | how can i set openDNS in ubuntu? | 19:47 |
| ikonia | what do you mean "set it" | 19:47 |
| nusr | to the openDNS settings | 19:47 |
| nusr | i want to change ipv4 to 208.67.222.222 | 19:48 |
| ikonia | you want to point your ubuntu machine to use 208.67.222.222 as a dns server ? | 19:49 |
| nusr | i did this from linuxquestions.org cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf save | 19:49 |
| nusr | yes | 19:49 |
| Dastada | Hi all :) | 19:49 |

| Dastada | Where is general Ubuntu chat? | 19:49 |
| ikonia | Dastada: this is for chat about ubuntu | 19:50 |
| nusr | ikonia: ok so do i need open DNS? | 19:50 |
| ikonia | nusr: you need it ? | 19:50 |
| ikonia | thats up to you if you need it or not | 19:50 |
| nusr | ikonia: yes | 19:50 |
| ikonia | I don't believe you do - but I don't know your situation | 19:50 |
| nusr | i probably don't but it would be nice to know how to do it | 19:50 |
| ikonia | then research setting dnsmasq servers | 19:51 |

| nusr | as an alternative...can't i use openDNS on my router? | 19:52 |
| ikonia | nusr: sure | 19:52 |
| nusr | then ubuntu will go through that and use DNAmasq? | 19:52 |
| Bashing-om | ikonia: Sheesshh, do not recall the specific for ubuntu-offtopic for the general chat channel .. | 19:52 |
| Pici | Bashing-om: its just #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:53 |

| BluesKaj | nusr, if you have access to your router/modem software thru a browser then you can usually set your dns server to manual and enter the opendns server IPs, for example, in the field provided | 19:54 |

| diederik_ | is that a host problem , or my vps setting | 19:55 |

| nusr | i don't know what masqDNS is | 19:55 |
| ikonia | nusr: ubuntu uses dnsmasq by default | 19:56 |
| nusr | dnsmasq is some privacy thing? | 19:56 |
| nusr | to stop dns leak? | 19:56 |
| nusr | as in masking? | 19:56 |

| vegaserrana | Hello, I am trying to create a symlink from Apache's var/www directory to a directory on a Windows NTFS drive. The web browser states that the files do not have permission to be accessed. However, when trying to change permissions of either the symlink or the NTFS directory using sudo nautilus, nautilus crashes. I also cannot seem to edit the permissions of either the symlink or the NTFS directory using Thunar either. I a | 20:13 |

| wheatthin | is there still an hfsprogs or hfsutils ? | 20:14 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: i would recommend manually specifying mount options for the drive that give the correct user/group access for the web server | 20:14 |
| expunge | wheatthin: ask apt-file | 20:15 |

| expunge | MB or mbit? =) | 20:16 |
| wheatthin | megabyte :) | 20:16 |
| vegaserrana | @grove0ba I am not sure how to do that, the drive is mounted though, I can navigate the directory on the web browser, it just cannot display any of the files due to not having read permission | 20:16 |
| grobe0ba | man mount and man fstab | 20:17 |
| grobe0ba | ntfs drives are mounted with uid/gid of the person who mounted them | 20:17 |
| grobe0ba | in the case, you. changing the permission will have no effect | 20:17 |
| grobe0ba | since it's not a real file system, it's ntfs | 20:17 |
| m3n3chm0 | hello, i've no sound on sopcast-player and vlc :S any clue ?? | 20:17 |
| grobe0ba | the drive will have to be unmounted, the correct options specified either on the command line for an ephermal mount, or in fstab for a more permanent setup | 20:18 |
| grobe0ba | in all likelihood, you will be better off in the long run simply migrating the files off of said ntfs drive | 20:18 |

| vegaserrana | would it be easier to move Apache's default directory to the NTFS drive instead of using a symlink from var/www to the NTFS drive? | 20:19 |
| wheatthin | big M big B :P | 20:19 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: you will still have permissions problem unless you deal with mounting it correctly | 20:19 |
| grobe0ba | that's why i'm saying it's better to migrate them off | 20:20 |
| vegaserrana | that would be better for me I think, I do not want to have all the files duplicated on two drives, I want them just on NTFS so they can be accessed by both Linux and Windows | 20:20 |
| expunge | wheatthin: ambiguous! =P | 20:20 |
| grobe0ba | so, read the manpage for mount, and the manpage for fstab | 20:21 |

| pale3 | hi I am trying to build firehol latest stable package. which I will afterall put in ppa. Issue is, that firehol now consist of two bin file (firehol,fireqos). Both binary files needs to have its init scripts for start,stop.. In firehol/debian/ i created two init and two default files, but I am not able to add them upon building package. Can anyone help | 20:22 |
| wheatthin | :) | 20:22 |
| wheatthin | my server be jammin :P | 20:22 |
| vegaserrana | I don't think I want to change the permissions for the entire drive though, just the one directory | 20:23 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: is not possible with ntfs | 20:24 |
| baumberg | Hi. I just upgraded to 14.04 and now I have WiFi issue. I believe the firmware is ok because it detects the time capsule router I'm using. I think something could be wrong with the DHCP but I'm not sure. Any helpful advice what to investigate next? | 20:24 |
| grobe0ba | the permissions system is not compatible | 20:24 |
| grobe0ba | another option though, is mount it with your uid, the web server group gid, and mode 770 | 20:24 |
| grobe0ba | that'll let you and the web server get to the drive | 20:24 |

| vegaserrana | yes but changing the permission of the entire drive so it can be accessed by the webserver is a terrible idea, very unsecure, I only want the one directory accesible | 20:26 |
| vegaserrana | can I just put the default directory for localhost on the NTFS drive instead of using a symlink? | 20:27 |
| grobe0ba | NO | 20:27 |
| grobe0ba | the webserver will still have no access | 20:27 |
| wheatthin | Umm you should use the www-data group for changing permissions on specific folders needed for apache2 | 20:27 |
| grobe0ba | you will get the same errors | 20:27 |
| grobe0ba | wheatthin: it's an NTFS drive | 20:27 |
| grobe0ba | unless something has changed radically, permissions are still not compatible | 20:27 |
| grobe0ba | and never bloody will be | 20:27 |
| nym-j | hi, how in the world i can change to the classic view on ubuntu 13.10 | 20:28 |
| wheatthin | it doesn't matter. After permissions are enabled in /etc/fstab, and then it's mounted, then it's a specific folder via group | 20:28 |
| grobe0ba | wheatthin: you walk her through it then. last time i used ntfs from anything not windows it was all or nothing | 20:29 |
| vegaserrana | what about a fat32 drive? I suppose I could create a new fat32 partition to hold the files I want hosted by Apache, I just need them on a filesystem that can be read by both Windows and Linux | 20:29 |
| === derkopf is now known as derk0pf | ||
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: once again, you'd have to specify the correct uid/gid for mounting | 20:30 |
| grobe0ba | other option is to read ext4 from windows | 20:30 |
| grobe0ba | which is quite possible | 20:30 |

| expunge | vegaserrana: what was the ln stuff you tried? | 20:34 |
| vegaserrana | yes I need free, not paid software ;-) | 20:34 |
| grobe0ba | expunge: the problem is the ntfs mounted drive and permissions | 20:34 |
| grobe0ba | afaik (which apparently has changed) is that you have to mount the entire drive with a set uid/gid | 20:35 |
| grobe0ba | someone said you can change individual directories now | 20:35 |
| grobe0ba | i have no clue though, so | 20:35 |

| vegaserrana | hm, Paragon ExtFS is freeware it says, but would it allow IIS 8 on Windows to host files from an ext4 partition? | 20:38 |

| ikonia | ext file systems on windows systems = problem | 20:38 |
| vegaserrana | *Windows 8.1 | 20:39 |
| vegaserrana | I would that with Linux usually being the more versatile system, it would be easier to keep the files on the Windows partition and have Apache on Linux access them from there, rather than vice versa with Windows IIS accessing the files from the Linux partition | 20:40 |
| ikonia | vegaserrana: how does this relate to ubuntu | 20:40 |
| expunge | he's trying to get apache to do something | 20:41 |
| vegaserrana | I am trying to figure out how to get Apache on Ubuntu Studio to display files from an NTFS Windows partition, or to get the default Apache directory on Ubuntu changed to a location on a Windows NTFS drive instead | 20:41 |
| expunge | but he ignores people's questions =P | 20:42 |
| ikonia | vegaserrana: this is not a wise thing to do | 20:42 |
| ikonia | vegaserrana: the ntfs file system has no permissions available so the web server would be exposed | 20:42 |
| vegaserrana | *she; it seems messy trying to get IIS to host files from the Linux partition even if that is possible, I would think it'd be easier for Apache to host the files from the Windows partition instead | 20:43 |
| ikonia | vegaserrana: not interested in hosting IIS servers | 20:43 |
| ikonia | vegaserrana: however I strongly advise you not to proceeed trying to host files on NTFS on linux | 20:43 |

| vegaserrana | it is for LAN/local use, not a public webserver | 20:44 |

| TLoFP | expunge, id like to store the images I create on the same usb stick that I boot from | 20:44 |
| ikonia | vegaserrana: I still strongly advise against it | 20:44 |
| ikonia | not clonezilla | 20:44 |
| ikonia | TLoFP: we deal with ubuntu here | 20:44 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: run your windows partition in a virtual machine whilst in linux | 20:44 |
| wheatthin | vegaserrana, IIS is too much overhead for hosting anything really. Good luck | 20:45 |
| TLoFP | ikonia, I am trying to clone a Ubuntu machine (loophole :P) | 20:45 |
| ikonia | TLoFP: no loop hole | 20:45 |
| ikonia | TLoFP: please use the clonezilla support services | 20:45 |
| expunge | TLoFP: what're the images for? | 20:46 |
| vegaserrana | @grobe0ba that might work, VirtualBox on Ubuntu can mount NTFS directories to a webserver on a virtual PC yes? | 20:46 |
| TLoFP | expunge, just makeing images of preconfigured ubuntu machines, instead of doing a dirty dd i thought id give clonezilla a try (but sounds like I am in the wrong channel, don't wanna getmyself or you in trouble) | 20:47 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: not what i was saying | 20:48 |
| expunge | TLoFP: pretty sure clonezilla also makes big images, like dd | 20:48 |
| grobe0ba | boot the entire windows partition, with that other drive also attached to the VM | 20:48 |
| expunge | only more ambiguously, not less | 20:48 |
| vegaserrana | I'll try to see if it works, that might be the quickest and safest solution, instead of using two servers on two OS's, have one server on VirtualBox that be run from either OS... | 20:48 |
| grobe0ba | so there is not cross-contaminating shenanigans | 20:48 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: i assure, it's a better route | 20:48 |
| expunge | TLoFP: I use sfdisk and a tarball or rsync -apv copy for Unix clones, personally; bit like this http://mark.koli.ch/howto-whole-disk-backups-with-dd-gzip-and-p7zip | 20:49 |
| smart_developer | How do I make it so that logrotate only checks a certain file on an hourly basis, while it continues to check the rest of the system files on a daily basis? | 20:49 |

| ikonia | smart_developer: this is not log rotate support | 20:49 |
| ikonia | smart_developer: you're not doing the home work - this is not an ubuntu issue | 20:49 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: since all you'll be needing it for is letting it serve http, you won't need that much | 20:50 |
| grobe0ba | i'd call it 1gb max, just enough to get it to boot, basically | 20:50 |
| grobe0ba | it should be able to serve http after that without too much trouble | 20:50 |

| vegaserrana | @maestrojed that is what I logged in to get help with, is it on NTFS? I got the same error with sudo | 20:57 |
| smart_developer | Could anyone point me to some channels for questions regarding the logrotate utility? | 20:57 |
| ikonia | smart_developer: we are not a yellow pages | 20:58 |
| ikonia | smart_developer: this channel is for ubuntu discussion, | 20:58 |
| expunge | smart_developer: logrotate or cron man pages should suffice | 20:58 |
| smart_developer | Basically, I want to know whether it's possible to set up logrotate so that it will check certain files hourly, and all the rest of the system files on the normal (default) daily basis. | 20:58 |
| maestrojed | vegaserrana no, its not NTFS | 20:58 |
| maestrojed | vegaserrana well... | 20:59 |
| maestrojed | vegaserrana its nfs. I thought it was ext. but nfs is not ntfs, correct? | 21:00 |
| vegaserrana | according to @grobe0ba, permissions don't work the same on NTFS as with ext4, dunno about NFS | 21:01 |
| grobe0ba | nfs is the network file system | 21:01 |
| grobe0ba | it has been part of *nix since the 80s | 21:02 |
| grobe0ba | ntfs is the NT File System | 21:02 |
| grobe0ba | specific to microsoft | 21:02 |
| grobe0ba | completely different | 21:02 |
| grobe0ba | nfs4 supports both traditional permissions as well as ACLs | 21:02 |
| grobe0ba | whereas ntfs on *nix supports zilch in the way of permissions for ntfs, because they are almost entirely imcompatbile | 21:02 |
| grobe0ba | *incompatible | 21:02 |
| grobe0ba | vegaserrana: also, on irc, we do not preface people's nicks with an @ | 21:03 |
| grobe0ba | save it for twitter | 21:03 |
| vegaserrana | I don't suppose Microsoft will ever roll over and start using ext4 to install Windows 9+ on? lol :-p | 21:03 |

| sqpat | im running a mysql ubuntu server on a VM and ive got 100% cpu utilization, i'd like to determine if it's due to disk I/O, what commands might i look this up with ? | 21:10 |
| grobe0ba | i dont use them, so ive no clue. | 21:10 |
| maestrojed | grobe0ba ok, thx | 21:10 |
| sqpat | I made some changes to mysql and my VM console reported a drop from 4.5 MB/S to 1.7 MB/S in disk write I/O but the CPU utilization is still 100% so i want to make sure i'm actually bottlenecked by I/O.. | 21:11 |
| ikonia | sqpat: top/iostat/vmstat | 21:11 |
| superkuh | sqpat, I use "io" from http://kernel.embedromix.ro/us/ | 21:11 |
| superkuh | It is like all the other io top programs but better. | 21:12 |
| sqpat | ok, thanks, I'll try those | 21:12 |
| superkuh | Part of 'pwatch' | 21:12 |
| sqpat | im aware of top | 21:12 |
| sqpat | but i don't think it's clear why the CPU% is what it is and if its due to I/O? | 21:12 |
| ikonia | use the tools | 21:12 |
| ikonia | you'll either see io locking the cpu, or the cpu causing a wait on io | 21:13 |

| linux-user_ai | I tried version 12 and 14 | 21:54 |
| Beldar | linux-user_ai, Is there more than one HD, is this a raid install...etc? | 21:54 |
| linux-user_ai | Yes, but I removed the second hard drive and it still gives the error... | 21:55 |
| linux-user_ai | The install is on the first hard drive | 21:55 |
| Beldar | linux-user_ai, another OS, a dual boot? Did you remove the HD before the install? | 21:55 |
| linux-user_ai | Yes there is windows on the second hard drive... | 21:56 |

| trism | cortexman: -lfreetype needs to go after the objects referencing it | 22:34 |
| gr33n7007h | cortexman, that'll be better asked in #c also all links at the end of the command | 22:34 |
| trism | cortexman: same for the rest of the -llibrary args, so pretty much just move the .o files to the beginning of that command | 22:34 |
| cortexman | that does seem to have fixed most of the problems thanks. although that link command was generated by autoconf.. | 22:36 |
| derFiet | good evening (or whatever time it is at your locale) | 22:36 |
| geirha | that means configure.ac has the bug | 22:36 |
| cortexman | ugh.. i can't wait to edit the configure.ac of a 7 y/o package | 22:37 |
| cortexman | and try to run autoconf on it.. and watch it barf everywhere for three days | 22:37 |

| geirha | cortexman: With a 7 year old gcc, that command would've worked | 22:38 |
| cortexman | hmmm | 22:38 |
| cortexman | i don't think that will work though. i'd have to setup a vm with an ancient ubuntu | 22:38 |
| cortexman | cant just plop it onto my current dist | 22:38 |
| geirha | it means that gcc at some point turned options into operators | 22:39 |
| geirha | with options, the order of them does not matter. With operators, order matters. Don't know why they would break backward compatability like that though | 22:40 |
| cortexman | afaict this configure.in is extremely short and vanilla | 22:40 |
| cortexman | there is no room for the author to have made the error | 22:40 |
| pocheche | Hi | 22:41 |

| pocheche | Truecrypt can't do it _jack_ | 22:54 |
| pocheche | Sorry | 22:54 |
| thoonai | pocheche: if you have your system already installed, its no good I think | 22:54 |
| cortexman | remarkably, i managed to hack configure.ac and Makefile.am into submission and run autoreconf and fix the prob | 22:54 |
| pocheche | I guess | 22:55 |
| rww | it's doable, but annoying enough that you're better off backing up and reinstalling | 22:55 |
| rww | and the installer has an option for full-disk encryption | 22:55 |
| thoonai | pocheche: you can mark an partition as encrypted in the installation process | 22:55 |
| thoonai | and then configure the encrypted volume to be mounted at / | 22:55 |
| pocheche | I know | 22:55 |
| cortexman | geirha trism gr33n7007h tx | 22:55 |
| thoonai | pocheche: so its possible :) | 22:55 |
| pocheche | But don't want to reinstall | 22:55 |
| rww | then you're going to spend longer figuring out how to do it manually than you would spend reinstalling and re-setting stuff up | 22:56 |

| pocheche | I see | 22:56 |
| pocheche | Well | 22:56 |
| Dastada | oi | 22:56 |
| thoonai | pocheche: so I think you have to copy all the stuff out of / to an external hdd, recreate the partition, configure the kernel mount stuff, copy back ... | 22:57 |
| thoonai | pocheche: I'd suggest a reinstall too | 22:57 |
| pocheche | Yes | 22:57 |
