[00:06] <jrm2k6> Hi guys, any advice to create a bootable image of ubuntu from a mac targetting an install on a pc. For some reason using unetbootin from my mac, my pc is not botting from the usb key containing the image (i changed the boot order in my bios also to boot from the usb key)
[00:07] <EiriksScrewed> ok, I tried to use ctrl-alt-f1 and i got the terminal :D
[00:07] <reisio> jrm2k6: you could use dd, but do be careful
[00:07] <reisio> jrm2k6: are you calling it 'pc' because Windows is on it?
[00:08] <jrm2k6> no right now a non-working debian is on it
[00:08] <jimi> hello
[00:08] <jrm2k6> I never had issues installing ubuntu before, but i remember i was always creating my bootable images from a windows machine.
[00:08] <reisio> jrm2k6: non-working in what sense?
[00:08] <reisio> jimi: heya
[00:08] <EiriksScrewed> how do i reset root user settings from the terminal?
[00:08] <reisio> EiriksScrewed: settings?
[00:09] <jrm2k6> reisio: not working in the sense that grub got messed up and i dont have any sudo rights :/
[00:10] <reisio> jrm2k6: and you have no other live images?
[00:10] <jrm2k6> nope :/
[00:10] <EiriksScrewed> yeah i turned off unity from compiz and cant get it back
[00:10] <jrm2k6> only one usb key and a macbook
[00:10] <jrm2k6> :D
[00:10] <reisio> jrm2k6: how's grub messed up?
[00:11] <jrm2k6> the installation failed somehow, so i had to remount one of my partition to make it boot
[00:11] <reisio> EiriksScrewed: you can't turn it back on the way you turned it off?
[00:11] <jrm2k6> i thought it was fine but after that, when trying to install some drivers, sudo is not working
[00:11] <postmodern> how do i configure gnome to mount an encrypted partition, to a specific directory instead of /media/...?
[00:12] <reisio> postmodern: udev rules
[00:12] <EiriksScrewed> no with unity off i can't even hotkey to the terminal
[00:12] <postmodern> reisio, do you have an example you could point me to? i was looking at udisks2 earlier
[00:12] <summerleave> Anyone done anything with collation? the definition files how to sort I mean
[00:13] <summerleave> in /usr/share/i18n/locales/iso14651_t1_common there is a denfition of how things (including filenames in the file manager I believe?) is sorted, but I don't exactly understand the format
[00:13] <EiriksScrewed> is there a way to reset compiz, or get rid of it?
[00:14] <bubbasaures> EiriksScrewed, If 14.04 in the tty run http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/reset-unity-and-compiz-settings-in-ubuntu-14-04/  than reboot
[00:15] <jrm2k6> reisio: ah, for some reason my bios was using legacy instead of eufi
[00:15] <jrm2k6> not it boots using the key
[00:15] <jrm2k6> and i should be able to install ubuntu
[00:16] <OerHeks> EiriksScrewed, dconf reset -f /org/compiz/  [only if you have installed dconf]
[00:16] <EiriksScrewed> bubbasaures can i do that from terminal on guest?
[00:17] <bubbasaures> EiriksScrewed, Do it from the tty from the desktop or log in gui with ctrl-alt-f1-6
[00:17] <OerHeks> Guest does not have sufficient rights, you need to login with ctrl alt F2
[00:17] <reisio> jrm2k6: gj
[00:18] <EiriksScrewed> ok
[00:20] <shrunson> How to I block the joined/quit messages?
[00:22] <zykotick9> shrunson: ;) if you're using irssi as your client, ubottu can tell you "/msg ubottu quietirssi", for xchat it's in the menu...
[00:22] <shrunson> Roger.  Sorry, new to linux/irc/anything.  Not even sure how to reply back to you :) thanks!
[00:23] <reisio> shrunson: there's an icon at the top left
[00:23] <reisio> shrunson: for options
[00:24] <reisio> I usually set them to be less opaque for webchat.freenode.net
[00:24] <reisio> but that's involved
[00:24] <shrunson> Got it!
[00:24] <shrunson> thank you
[00:26] <shrunson> it's strange that the CTCP message popped in 'archlinux-offtopic' and not here...
[00:27] <OerHeks> i  think it popped up in the window you were focused on
[00:27] <reisio> shrunson: yeah
[00:27] <EiriksCLOSER> hey guys i do have dconf, but i need the command one more time pls
[00:27] <reisio> shrunson: it's tradition, though
[00:27] <reisio> EiriksCLOSER: what command?
[00:27] <OerHeks> EiriksCLOSER, scroll back, as you didn't leave
[00:28] <EiriksCLOSER> the dconf -f /???/compiz
[00:29] <EiriksCLOSER> i am in guest, no scrollback
[00:30] <Bashing-om> EiriksCLOSER: dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ .
[00:30] <EiriksCLOSER> trying it again
[00:31] <shrunson> What's the point of the 'gopher' user?
[00:36] <reisio> shrunson: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gopher_%28protocol%29
[00:36] <shrunson> read that first
[00:36] <shrunson> didnt make sense to still include a gopher user
[00:36] <shrunson> if it's so old
[00:41] <incognito> hello. i am wanting to compile a kernel in ubuntu that is ran through crouton on a chromebook. i am thinking that I will need to clone a kernel into the directory where my original kernel resides and do a make config. Then, I can install it using the sudo dpkg -i "name of kernel here".deb once i am finished. Is this correct?
[00:42] <zykotick9> !kernel | incognito
[00:44] <incognito> Thank you. I will check it out. The reason I am doing it is so i can run virtualbox in crouton. Virtualbox wont pick up my chromebook kernel through crouton.
[00:45] <zykotick9> incognito: fyi, if it's something virtualbox specific, you might want to ask in #vbox...  YMMV
[00:46] <incognito> ok. ty again.
[00:46] <Mike9863> I'm trying to get more multitouch features for my touchpad on 14.04. I have tried using easystroke and touchegg but neither seem to detect my touchpad input. Ubuntu's default multitouch features work like 4 finger swipe to reveal unity bar, so I should be able to get more to work. Any help?
[00:46] <truepurple> Is there a flash throttling/slowing program that works on ubuntu and is known to be trustworthy?
[00:53] <brokebit> Hi Everyone. Would this be the place to ask questions about user upstart jobs?
[00:53] <compdoc> might as well
[00:54] <brokebit> ok. So we had setup some user upstart jobs in ~/.init/ on Ubuntu Server 12.04 and they worked just fine.
[00:54] <brokebit> We upgraded to 14.04 and they nolonger work. I did some research and it seems like they should go in ~/.config/upstart
[00:54] <brokebit> So I moved them but they aren't being recgonized.
[00:55] <brokebit> Obviously Im' missing something.
[00:55] <trism> brokebit: .config/upstart is the correct place, do you have an example that isn't working?
[00:57] <trism> brokebit: although, I'm not sure if that is true on ubuntu server
[00:57] <brokebit> Sure. give me one second
[00:58] <truepurple> Is there a flash throttling/slowing program that works on ubuntu and is known to be trustworthy?
[00:59] <brokebit> trism: http://pastebin.com/bjYhNKnQ
[01:00] <simonjr45> hello everybody
[01:00] <trism> brokebit: so the jobs in ~/.init/ would be run whether your user was logged in or not?
[01:00] <brokebit> yes.
[01:00] <simonjr45> can somebody help me why is that in the ubuntu software centre the search bar is missing
[01:00] <trism> brokebit: yeah that's not really how the upstart user sessions work now
[01:00] <brokebit> We used to stop/start them by using /sbin/stop webapi and /sbin/start webapi
[01:01] <simonjr45> i had it after installing and a few days back but it is missing now
[01:01] <trism> brokebit: an init --user process is spawned when the user logs it and it manages the session, and the user can add jobs to ~/.config/upstart/
[01:01] <brokebit> Basically we need these process running as a particular user and that user needs to be able to start/stop them without sudo.
[01:02] <brokebit> They will continue to run regardless of them being logged in or not.
[01:02] <simonjr45> i am not able to get the search bar in ubuntu software centre
[01:02] <brokebit> It's on a server so there is no X installed
[01:02] <simonjr45> how to bring it back
[01:02] <simonjr45> I hope some can help me though
[01:03] <brokebit> trims: ok. I guess I'm a bit confused on the new way upstart works.
[01:03] <trism> brokebit: there is a stanza for that: setuid username
[01:03] <trism> brokebit: so you could just put the jobs in /etc/init and set the user in the job conf
[01:04] <brokebit> ok. But will a non root user be able to start/stop them without sudo?
[01:04] <simonjr45> ubuntu software centre how to bring back the search button
[01:04] <trism> brokebit: hmm, not sure let's see
[01:04] <netlar> Where additional lenses for the Dash taken out of 14.04? I remember being able to have additional lenses in 13.04
[01:05] <netlar> Were*
[01:05] <truepurple> Ok, if no one can help me with that, this is as close as I can find on my own, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=996155 can someone please help me with these instructions?
[01:06] <trism> brokebit: nope doesn't look like it
[01:07] <brokebit> trism: That's what I thought. That's why we ended up with them in ~/.init in 12.04. That worked really well.
[01:10] <truepurple> Could I please get some help?
[01:11] <Bashing-om> truepurple: What is the problem ? scanmem looks simple to install ...
[01:12] <c3vin> is it possible to use bash script to add current user to lpadmin group on login?
[01:12] <truepurple> the instructions in the middle get me lost, like, pause and unpause what, how?
[01:13] <truepurple> and how do I find the variable I need?
[01:13] <truepurple> What does the variable I need even look like?
[01:13] <truepurple> Is it another PID number?
[01:15] <truepurple> Bashing-om, ?
[01:17] <Bashing-om> truepurple: Got me, With out seeing that interface I can not advise.
[01:18] <truepurple> bashing, don't you use ubuntu?
[01:19] <truepurple> Anyway, the "interface" is a command line, unless I did something wrong
[01:23] <truepurple> Bashing-om, ?
[01:25] <truepurple> trism?
[01:26] <ph0x> Hi
[01:26] <ph0x> i am installing ubuntu server
[01:26] <ph0x> is this the right channel?
[01:26] <Bashing-om> truepurple: Well, the way I read it is that you start the application 'scanmem' and in the application give it the pid of the "game" that is running.
[01:27] <truepurple> Bashing-om, , its a flash game, I put in pid of the browser, but thats not enough
[01:27] <truepurple> The instructions let me know it's not enough too, I need to narrow it down, but I don't understand how
[01:27] <zykotick9> !ubuntu-server | ph0x for server specific questions there is also this...
[01:29] <Bashing-om> truepurple: " find the process you want (Ex. firefox) " Now I would myself find that pid from the output of "ps aux" .
[01:29] <ph0x> i have a question about ubuntu server
[01:29] <ph0x> specificlly
[01:29] <ph0x> I h ave a server i run rutorent on
[01:30] <zykotick9> ph0x: as the above factoid says Support in #ubuntu-server
[01:30] <truepurple> output? I already put the pid in for that browser Bashing-om, I don't understand what tod o after that
[01:30] <ph0x> I also have a screen and speakers hooked up to it, and I run vlc and I use the http interface to interact with it, is ubuntu server for me?
[01:30] <scarrz> hi all... I am customizing an app on ubuntu 14.04 and lost the icon in my menu and the sound indicator. the app is gmusicbrowser and I am using a custom icon. can anyone help?
[01:31] <truepurple> Bashing-om, , btw, Im looking at the memory stuff from system monitor, but it keeps updating and knocking scroll back to the top, is there a way to stop this?
[01:31] <ububu> Hi. Can't install Skype on 14.04 after release-upgrade from 12.04. The upgrade removed my skype. Now I get this: http://pastebin.com/zAH7dRnm
[01:31] <OerHeks> truepurple, try 'man scanman' ?
[01:32] <truepurple> OerHeks, no good, but I have looked at its help information, doesn't help
[01:32] <truepurple> Mostly just gives a list of commands
[01:33] <truepurple> which is useless when I don't know how I need to do this in the first place
[01:34] <Stinky_Feet> truepurple: You need the process tree. The parent process. Try "ps axjf" or "ps -ejH".
[01:34] <martin_r> hola
[01:34] <kieppie_> I have an issue whereby windows clients get disconnected randomly. full details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2244650
[01:35] <kieppie_> hi folks
[01:35] <OerHeks> truepurple,  a little google search, gui for scanmem >https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/gameconqueror/ also for current trusty 14.04
[01:35] <kieppie_> there's a correlation with disconnects & NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER
[01:35] <truepurple> Stinky_Feet, I tried ps axjf, it gave me a list, not sure if this list is useful or not, or how to use it if it is
[01:37] <truepurple> Is there a way/how do I pause the autoscrolling up of memory profile in system monitor?
[01:38] <Stinky_Feet> truepurple: Well, the first process forked the next and so on. You need the PID of a perticular process you want to manipulate. The output should hopefully give you some ideas....
[01:39] <truepurple> Stinky_Feet, I didn't understand that. Is that reply related to stopping the memory profile from autoscrolling up?
[01:41] <Stinky_Feet> truepurple: No sorry, CLI stuff.
[01:41] <kieppie_> I suspect it could be having an issue with dns or routing
[01:42] <truepurple> Lets start with the smallest of things, how do I stop this autoscroll up?
[01:43] <truepurple> surely there must be a way
[01:44] <truepurple> OerHeks, Stinky_Feet ?
[01:46] <truepurple> and that scanmem frontend might be more confusing to use then the command line
[01:50] <twml> anyone active here?
[01:50] <truepurple> good question
[01:51] <truepurple> Been trying to get help, two people were sorta helping me earlier
[01:51] <twml> no one was talking on the xubunutu channel and i gots a question
[01:52] <twml> im trying ot install net framework 3.5 trough wine, as its needed for a few windows programs i need to run on my xubunutu 14.04
[01:52] <Stinky_Feet> truepurple: Yes. You need to find the PID. Stop using the GUI, and find it out. Example (if you have ack-grep installed): ps axjf | ack-grep --passthru chrome
[01:52] <twml> but install is talking 3 hours so far and only 3/4 done, is it doing ok or is something wrong
[01:52] <EiriksUbuntu> well, now I know not to turn off unity again... when i turned it off i couldn't even go into failsafe
[01:53] <Stinky_Feet> truepurple: Will highlight all procs started by chrome
[01:54] <EiriksUbuntu> i had to login as normal, right click, make a folder then open it to search for compiz config then turn unity back on... now it's all good
[01:57] <truepurple> Stinky_Feet, is there no way to pause the memory maps autoscroll up?

[02:01] <Unix-Dude> I heard its optimization
[02:02] <Scoo-> it removes junk files
[02:02] <doom> u have t put sudo infront of it noob
[02:02] <Stinky_Feet> truepurple: I'm just trying to find out what scanman is :-) But it sounded like it needs the PID of the process you want to mess about with...
[02:02] <Unix-Dude> Pipe everything to /dev/null
[02:03] <doom> RandomGuy928 is a nub
[02:03] <Unix-Dude> dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/sda bs=512

[02:07] <Stinky_Feet> truepurple: I have no idea. I have still not found the software you are talking about. Was just trying to help you out on how to find the PID of the forked/child process...

[02:23] <EiriksUbuntu> trupurple it's a good thing i looked into it, gnome breaks unity
[02:25] <truepurple> EiriksUbuntu, I know that isn't a complete truth
[02:26] <truepurple> Some version of gnome even exists in unity. And I have heard of people who switch over to older gnomes with unity as a background option.

[02:27] <Mike9863> Bashing-om: Unfortunately this isn't showing anything when I do three/four finger swipes on my touchpad.
[02:28] <somsip> Mike9863: that would suggest multi-touch swipes aren't supported by the driver. Have you found anything to say they should be?
[02:28] <Bashing-om> Mike9863: ; Sorry, only thought I had.

[02:48] <squinty> truepurple:  added you to ignore list where you obviously belong
[02:49] <reisio> draammmaaa
[02:49] <truepurple> Good, because I could do without such rudeness
[02:50] <truepurple> ObrienDave, Are you able to answer either question then?
[02:50] <truepurple> Or help me progress on either subject
[02:50]  * ObrienDave loves a good ignore command
[02:50] <princedastan> Hi Bro, i want to ask something... i have installed ubuntu 14.04 desktop and change into gnome-core environtment, but my network applet was gone, how to fix it bro? i have search on many sites but not solved yet...
[02:51] <reisio> princedastan: network-manager-gnome ?
[02:51] <EiriksUbuntu> truepurple thats telling me in order to use the cheat you will need to know the variable that is the cheat
[02:52] <dillion> hello, can someone help me with a ubuntu installation problem
[02:52] <truepurple> EiriksUbuntu, I didn't understand that. And it isn't a cheat code. It manipulates memory somehow for slowing stuff down
[02:52] <truepurple> near as I can tell
[02:52] <reisio> dillion: someone can indeed
[02:53] <dillion> im trying to install ubuntu onto a laptop formatted with NTFS, i have already shrunk the partition to allow room for the ubuntu partition but once inside ubuntu and installing it it shows the whole hard drive as free space
[02:53] <dillion> what should i try or do
[02:54] <br_oken> Hello. How do I install multiarch so that I can run this "32-bit LSB executable" file in 64-bit mode in Ubuntu Server 14.04 ?
[02:54] <br_oken> dillion : are you sure this is not the Ubuntu partition it shows as free ?
[02:55] <reisio> br_oken: for what?
[02:55] <dillion> no its showing the full 1TB hard drive as free space, its as if it doesnt recognize that there is a partition of any kind there
[02:55] <reisio> dillion: you trying to dual boot?
[02:55] <reisio> sounds like RAID nonsense
[02:55] <dillion> yeah im trying to dual boot, ive previously had a working dual boot on a desktop,
[02:55] <Bashing-om> dillion: I suggest you look at that hard drive from the liveDVD with GParted once more, if still shows "unallocated" time to try the utility 'testdisk' and see if you can recover the Windows partition.
[02:56] <reisio> dillion: does the extant OS still work?
[02:56] <dillion> and i dont have any raid setups on this computer
[02:56] <reisio> erm, make sure the windows partition is actually gone first...
[02:56] <dillion> the windows 7 installation still works on it, its not currupted, its just ubuntu doesnt see that its already partitioned
[02:56] <Unix-Dude> hi
[02:56] <dillion> im not trying to delete windows, if i was it wouldnt be a problem
[02:56] <Unix-Dude> how can i ubuntu?
[02:57] <somsip> Unix-Dude: ops will be summoned if you start to misbehave again
[02:57] <reisio> Unix-Dude: properly
[02:57] <reisio> dillion: laptop?
[02:57] <dillion> yeah its a lenovo laptop
[02:58] <br_oken> How do I multiarch ?
[02:58] <dillion> gparted also displays that the whole hard drive is unallocated space
[02:58] <reisio> dillion: check your BIOS/etc. for sata compatiblity mode nonsense
[02:58] <dillion> funny story there
[02:58] <reisio> br_oken: generally you don't choose server if you want that
[02:59] <dillion> im kinda locked out of hte bios because the password was lost, and unplugging the cmos wont help with it, ive tried
[02:59] <phunyguy> yeah you cannot reset the cmos on most lenovos without special hardware
[02:59] <reisio> dillion: it's 'abc123'
[02:59] <reisio> dunno why they bother, password protecting the bios is pointless
[03:00] <dillion> ive trtied all  the defualts reisio, even my general goto passwords, nothing, even the supposed "manufacturer" passwords, and yeah lenovo are awful for htis
[03:00] <ObrienDave> passwords, like locks, only keep honest people out
[03:00] <reisio> dillion: okay, then you might have to look up strange kernel parameters
[03:00] <dillion> you lost me reisio
[03:00] <reisio> noncurious honest people =)
[03:01] <dillion> no im very curious about this, im just being completely honest
[03:01] <phunyguy> dillion: do you potentially have any windows encryption on that device?
[03:01] <dillion> no, not that i know of anyway
[03:01] <phunyguy> but I am leaning towards what reisio said
[03:02] <phunyguy> I do not know the kernel params though.
[03:02] <dillion> i dont know what kernal params are or how to set them so yeah
[03:02] <dillion> and to humor you i tried abc123, and also 123abc, neither worked
[03:02] <phunyguy> it's as good a time as any to learn!
[03:02] <dillion> it seems like it lol
[03:03] <reisio> so now only professional criminals can get into your BIOS, not you =)
[03:03] <phunyguy> ok let's stay on the support topic. :)
[03:04] <phunyguy> So reisio, do you know what kernel parameters are needed?
[03:04] <princedastan>  @reisio you're right, network manager gnome
[03:04] <princedastan>  @reisio i still can accessed internet via ethernet but i want it like normal ubuntu with applet
[03:04] <princedastan>  so how could i put back the network applet?
[03:04] <reisio> princedastan: dpkg -L network-manager-gnome | grep bin
[03:04] <phunyguy> and dillion when you boot the livedvd, you have to press a key to get to the grub menu, and you can edit that to add parameters to how ubuntu loads
[03:05] <phunyguy> princedastan: you don't need the @ symbol.  This isn't twitter.  :)
[03:05] <princedastan> ok
[03:05] <dillion> yeha i actually figured out how to get into that prior to you saying the params reisio, thanx
[03:05] <princedastan> i would give the result on paste bin
[03:05] <truepurple> How do I stop memory map from autoscrolling up?
[03:06] <princedastan> this is the result Mr. Reisio http://paste.ubuntu.com/8376789/
[03:06] <phunyguy> truepurple: what is memory map?
[03:07] <truepurple> phunyguy, In system manager if you right click a process there is a memory map option
[03:07] <phunyguy> how often does it "autoscroll"?
[03:07] <truepurple> It gives you memory information about the process
[03:07] <truepurple> every few seconds
[03:07] <phunyguy> Mine isn't....
[03:07] <phunyguy> odd.
[03:08] <truepurple> which makes reading from it or copying from it near impossible
[03:08] <truepurple> try scrolling down
[03:08] <truepurple> Scroll down to the bottom of the list, see how long it stays there
[03:08] <phunyguy> I did.
[03:08] <princedastan> how reisio about this result? -->  http://paste.ubuntu.com/8376789/
[03:09] <truepurple> phunyguy, It doesn't move for you?
[03:09] <reisio> princedastan: -L
[03:09] <phunyguy> truepurple: I wish I could help with that as I am on Gentoo with gnome-system-monitor.... might be a bug that got fixed in a later version
[03:09] <phunyguy> truepurple: nope
[03:09] <truepurple> phunyguy, Can you help with this then? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2244812
[03:10] <princedastan> reisio, oh sorry i misstyped... wait...
[03:10] <pombreda> Hola sounds like there is linking issue on package pages for copyright files: Take for insatnce http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libc6 the link there is a 404: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/e/eglibc/eglibc_2.19-0ubuntu6.3/libc6.copyright and should be http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/e/eglibc/eglibc_2.19-0ubuntu6.3/copyright  ... the same applies to all the package pages
[03:10] <phunyguy> truepurple: no, sorry
[03:11] <princedastan> reisio : this is the result http://paste.ubuntu.com/8376803/
[03:13] <truepurple> phunyguy, Know of any program or method to throttle/slow down flash?
[03:13] <phunyguy> no, sorry.
[03:15] <princedastan> then how about it reisio? should i put /usr/bin/nm-applet to startup?
[03:15] <reisio> princedastan: just run it, your session manager will do the rest
[03:17] <phunyguy> truepurple: let me boot to ubuntu real quick and see if the memory map refreshes weird there
[03:17] <phunyguy> brb
[03:18] <princedastan> reisio, i run with terminal rooter /usr/bin/nm-applet but result nothing bro
[03:19] <princedastan> and also put in on startup and give nothing result too...
[03:19] <reisio> help hilight
[03:20] <phunyguy> truepurple: it does indeed do it with ubuntu.
[03:20] <phunyguy> strange....
[03:21] <phunyguy> version in ubuntu is 3.8.2.1..... brb
[03:22] <phunyguy> 3.12.2 in Gentoo.   truepurple so there is your answer.  It is a bug that is fixed in a later version.  Not much we can do here with that.
[03:27] <firstqy> ...
[03:28] <truepurple> phuny, what version of ubuntu is that?
[03:28] <truepurple> phunyguy,
[03:29] <phunyguy> truepurple: 14.04
[03:30] <truepurple> So your answer is to switch to another distro, damn
[03:30] <phunyguy> that wasn't my answer at all.
[03:30] <phunyguy> my answer was "there is nothing we can do about that here"
[03:30] <truepurple> gentoo isn't another distro?
[03:30] <phunyguy> I would appreciate it if you didn't put words in my mouth.,
[03:31] <truepurple> gentoo is a distro, right?
[03:31] <phunyguy> I would tread lightly if I were you.
[03:31] <truepurple> ?
[03:31] <blackangelpr> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gentoo_Linux
[03:31] <phunyguy> yes, it is a distro.
[03:31] <blackangelpr> there you go
[03:32] <phunyguy> I wasn't suggesting that you use Gentoo.  I was suggesting that the "bug" is fixed in a new version of the package.  The latest supported version of Ubuntu in this channel doesn't have said package.
[03:32] <phunyguy> said package version*
[03:33] <phunyguy> you are more than welcome to give 14.10 a try if you want to try prerelease software.
[03:33] <truepurple> So I can't install this package (package of what program?) in 11.04, but I can in gentoo?
[03:33] <phunyguy> yes.  (14.04)
[03:34] <phunyguy> package being the gnome-system-monitor package.... where you are getting the process list.
[03:34] <phunyguy> !info gnome-system-monitor
[03:34] <truepurple> even under unity, still useses gome system monitor?
[03:34] <m_anish> Is this the right place to talk about in.archive.ubuntu.com repos not working?
[03:34] <m_anish> for raring
[03:35] <phunyguy> yes.
[03:35] <OerHeks> !info gnome-system-monitor utopic
[03:35] <m_anish> phunyguy, well, they aren't working ;)
[03:35] <phunyguy> m_anish: sorry, that was to truepurple
[03:35] <m_anish> who should I bug
[03:35] <m_anish> oh okay sorry
[03:35] <m_anish> carry on
[03:35] <OerHeks> !raring
[03:35] <phunyguy> m_anish: no worries.... you can try to ask here but not sure who can answer.
[03:35] <m_anish> okay
[03:35] <OerHeks> m_anish, those repos are long gone, upgrade
[03:36] <m_anish> OerHeks, ha. okay
[03:36] <phunyguy> OerHeks: hence archive.ubuntu.com
[03:36] <phunyguy> :)
[03:36] <OerHeks> i wouldn't advise you to do the oldversions trick, you wouldn't be safe
[03:36] <phunyguy> ^
[03:36] <ObrienDave> hence old-releases.ubuntu.com ;P
[03:36] <m_anish> today is Software Freedom Day .for us here atleast .I'm getting 14.04 lts installed in a bunch of machines...
[03:36] <m_anish> maybe i should upgrade myself
[03:37] <truepurple> Is there another DE that doesn't use gnome system monitor, but something else?
[03:37] <phunyguy> ObrienDave: oh right, I got archive and old-releases confused
[03:37] <Ben64> m_anish: you definitely should. no security updates since january
[03:37] <m_anish> (i'm a fedora guy 80% of the time) so was looking for unetbootin
[03:37] <phunyguy> truepurple: you can probably use something else to get your memory maps, maybe somewhere in /proc
[03:37] <phunyguy> truepurple: I am sure that is all gnome-system-monitor is doing
[03:37] <m_anish> Ben64, yeah I don't use this a lot . mostly am on f20. but needed to create liveusbs
[03:37] <reisio> truepurple: what is it you want to monitor?
[03:37] <ObrienDave> phunyguy, just keeping you honest :))
[03:37] <phunyguy> hehehe
[03:37] <m_anish> if the repos for 14.04 work, then there's no problem
[03:37] <m_anish> :)
[03:37] <m_anish> thx
[03:37] <Ben64> m_anish: well thats a perfect reason to use 14.04
[03:38] <Ben64> m_anish: 14.04 will work until 2017
[03:38] <Ben64> 2019*
[03:38] <m_anish> yes I know. it's LTS :)
[03:38] <truepurple> reisio, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2244812 I was hoping I could figure out something from memory map to help with that, thought doubt even that would help
[03:38] <phunyguy> Ben64: 2019*
[03:39] <reisio> truepurple: with what?
[03:39] <m_anish> Ben64, I was turned off, probably like many by early unity releases and switched to fedora gnome3 long ago... but people switching to linux these days prefer ubuntu ... :)
[03:39] <truepurple> reisio, With the issue listed there
[03:41] <phunyguy> Ben64: sorry for correcting you... I failed to see your correction.  :)
[03:41] <Ben64> phunyguy: no worries
[03:41] <alexosaurus> hello. having an issue with display in 14.04. after some time the screen 'rearranges' itself so it starts and ends in the wrong place (my crappy paint job: http://i.imgur.com/EPXbnyy.png). im not sure where to even begin googling, does anybody know what this is called? only fixes with reboot
[03:41] <truepurple> reisio, With getting scanmem or some other program to slow down flash. Though gameconquerer is locked up even and I can't even figure out which system monitor listing it belongs to, to force close it
[03:41] <Guest62772> does ubuntu support waacom tablets?
[03:42] <reisio> Guest62772: yup
[03:42] <OerHeks> Guest62772, sure, see system settings > wacom tablet
[03:42] <truepurple> I got a locked up program, how do I determine which process listing in system monitor is the locked program for forced shutdown?
[03:43] <reisio> truepurple: 'top' would show what's using the most resources
[03:44] <eeee> truepurple: you can type xkill in the terminal, and then click on it's window to kill it
[03:44] <phunyguy> alt+f2 works to type xkill into as well
[03:44] <truepurple> ah thanks
[03:51] <loudaslife> How can I view the fan speed of an ATI card under open source drivers? Normally it'd be aticonfig, but open source doesn't have that.
[03:51] <truepurple> What search perimeters should I use for wanting to slow a program down? My search results often come back for the opposite, of people who want to speed it up
[03:51] <alexosaurus> v
[03:53] <reisio> truepurple: slow it down why
[03:53] <phunyguy> to cheat in a game...
[03:53] <phunyguy> :(
[03:54] <truepurple> reisio, Because I'm struggling in a flash game that has something go by way too fast
[03:54] <reisio> truepurple: heh
[03:54] <phunyguy> sounds like more effort than it is worth :(
[03:54] <truepurple> hey, I don't normally cheat, and don't judge, so can you help?
[03:55] <reisio> are you supposed to hit something that zooms by or somethign?
[03:55] <truepurple> It doesn't matter for helping me
[03:55] <reisio> it doesn't?
[03:55] <reisio> silly me
[03:55] <reisio> good luck helping yourself then :p
[03:55]  * reisio clears buffer
[03:55] <loudaslife> On windows the best way to slow down games would be software called "Cheat Engine"
[03:56] <truepurple> Ok, explain relevance on how knowing the details of the game will help me slow down flash
[03:56] <truepurple> yes, but I am not duel booting
[03:56] <phunyguy> ....not really the purpose of this channel.
[03:56] <loudaslife> Just thought that was a starting point
[03:56] <truepurple> I need help with ubuntu
[03:56] <reisio> I will explain the relevance
[03:56] <reisio> just as soon as it's you helping me and not the other way 'round :p
[03:57] <phunyguy> again, not really the purpose of this channel.
[03:57] <truepurple> Sure, what do you need help with?
[03:57] <reisio> that's a good question
[03:57] <OerHeks> that is what gameconqueror is, cheatengine-like interface+ scanmem
[03:58] <phunyguy> I don't really get a warm and fuzzy helping someone cheat in a game, so good luck to you, sir.
[03:58] <OerHeks> still need a lot of research per game to control it.
[03:58]  * OerHeks thinks more windows cheaters than linux
[03:59] <reisio> on linux we call it hacking
[04:00] <ObrienDave> oooooo, the "H" word ;P
[04:00] <truepurple> OerHeks, yeah, except I can't get gameconqueror to work, and I thought maybe  the people here could help me with the technospeak instructions I found
[04:01] <loudaslife> gameconqueror doesn't have a slowdown feature like cheat engine does last time I checked
[04:02] <truepurple> I see, so I am barking up the wrong tree in the first place, good to know, except you don't sound for sure
[04:02] <loudaslife> I just haven't used it for a few years, so that might have changed
[04:03] <alexosaurus> '
[04:04] <truepurple> Is there a alternative? Maybe a command method to slow down a program under ubuntu?
[04:04] <reisio> if only there were an alternative
[04:06] <Melar> another initramfs problem with 14.04 livecds seems lubuntu xubuntu suffered from the same.  best workaround ive found is using 12.04 lts and do-release-upgrade to 14.04 lts
[04:06] <truepurple> What would be a good search perimeter for slowing down something?
[04:07] <reisio> "drugs"
[04:07] <Melar> truepurple like internet?
[04:08] <Melar> truepurple if it is internet you could use a trafficshaper like tc
[04:08] <truepurple> I mean in a search engine
[04:08] <phunyguy> truepurple: you are getting pretty far from the support objective of this channel
[04:08] <truepurple> to search for a program in ubuntu for slowing down flash
[04:08] <truepurple> or method
[04:08] <phunyguy> truepurple: no sorry. That is not what this channel is for.
[04:09] <loudaslife> So, to repeat my question, how can I monitor fan speed with ATI open source drivers?
[04:10] <reisio> loudaslife: what driver is that?
[04:10] <gogh> truepurple: Why do you want to slow down a program? You can set the niceness at least..
[04:10] <loudaslife> The open source ati drivers, not the proprietary ati drivers.
[04:10] <loudaslife> As in, NOT fglrx
[04:10] <Melar> truepurple there used to be a program for windows called dos box search for a related program for linux.  an additional idea is you could sand box it with apparmor or there is another linux program like cheatengine you might be able to do the same
[04:11] <truepurple> dos box is for dos games, not flash browser games
[04:11] <Melar> truepurple in otherwords you will have to sandbox flash so that it runs slower if your system is too fast.
[04:12] <Melar> truepurple your mind seems one pointed.  that is just an objective observation.
[04:14] <truepurple> Melar,  I searched apparmor, all the information on it is technospeak, I am not sure how I'd use it to sandbox something, much less slow down within that sandbox
[04:14] <reisio> are you supposed to hit something that zooms by or something?
[04:15] <Melar> truepurple then learn.  how do you expect to accomplish greatness without even trying?
[04:17] <truepurple> learn technospeak? I don't want to spend years learning that just to do this, and I wouldn't know where to start anyway
[04:18] <Melar> truepurple I am merely stating that sandboxing flash is an enduser concept not supported by ubuntu.  Some things in life we have to come up with our own solutions for.  Enduser means it is a unique "development" type concept.
[04:19] <Melar> truepurple ok let me give it a quick look one sec
[04:25] <Melar> truepurple what is the speed of your processor?
[04:28] <truepurple> i5 760 I think
[04:28] <truepurple> which is a 4 core little under 4k speed
[04:29] <truepurple> intel
[04:29] <truepurple> What difference does that make?
[04:29] <truepurple> maybe its a 560
[04:31] <Melar> ill msg you
[04:41] <jimi> Hello
[04:48] <ebook1> hi
[04:50] <blocky> any reason not to upgrade from 14.04 (as opposed to a clean install)
[04:52] <DanTurtle> Does any one use or know someone that uses an HP Desktop DC7100 SFF for Linux?  I am trying to see if I can get the internal speaker to work.
[04:52] <rwp> blocky, I always upgrade. But it depends upon your system and what you have done to it.
[04:55] <rwp> DanTurtle, Not I. But see /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf for blacklisted modules.
[04:55] <DanTurtle> Do I need to run that as norml or super user rwp?
[04:55] <rwp> Run that? No. Look at it. "less /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf"
[04:56] <rwp> See the two blacklisted internal speaker sound modules?
[04:56] <DanTurtle> Okay
[04:57] <rwp> I would think that to get the internal speaker working you would need snd_pcsp loaded.
[04:57] <rwp> But that is just a guess. The rest is as they say left as an exercise for the reader.
[04:58] <DanTurtle> I see 4 items related to sound listed.
[05:01] <DanTurtle> None mention "Internal Speaker" but one does mention pcspkr
[05:03] <rwp> I guess it depends upon your hardware but isn't the PC speaker the only speaker inside the box?  Maybe I am out of touch with newer random hardware though so check it twice.
[05:04] <LFS> I'm wondering how did Arabic ubuntu menus won the uggliest font prize! and how to change it?
[05:05] <LFS> settings > appearance has nothing to do with fonts
[05:11] <veek> is the software for ubuntu forums available for free?
[05:11] <veek> the stuff they use for posting questions etc
[05:18] <DanTurtle> is there a way to find out if I am using alsa or pulseaudio for sound?
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> !sound | DanTurtle
[05:20] <DanTurtle> Thank you I shall check those out.
[05:22] <hephaestus_rg> hello, is there a place where i can tweak the behavior of alt+tab/alt+`
[05:22] <hephaestus_rg> i'd like it to work like osx
[05:23] <DanTurtle> My issue is this desktop has an internal speaker and it isn't working in Linux but worked fine in XP before I switched to Linux.
[05:27] <squinty> DanTurtle:  system settings > sound > sound effects > alert volume may be turned down
[05:28] <DanTurtle> Everything is not down.  Been through those already.
[05:28] <malkauns_>  blocky: upgrade has never worked properly for me
[05:28] <DanTurtle> When I run "aplay -l" I get a list of 2 devices.
[05:29] <DanTurtle> Could it not have the drivers for the internal speaker installed?  I don't have any external speakers to hook up.
[05:30] <DF3D2> What is a great looking desktop setup anymore?
[05:30] <DanTurtle> May I post a list of both devices?
[05:31] <hephaestus_rg> holy crap why is the default alt-tab behavior so hard to change
[05:36] <peterrooney> hephaestus_rg: pardon my shallow imagination, but how is there even more that one behaviour?
[05:38] <hephaestus_rg> the problem is that if i alt-tab quickly, it goes between apps, but if do it somewhat slower, it goes between windows of the same app peterrooney
[05:39] <hephaestus_rg> and i'm on a 1.6ghz atom, so random lag creates frustrating alt-tabs peterrooney
[05:39] <hephaestus_rg> i would prefer it worked like OSX where alt-tab is always between apps, and alt+` is always between windows of the same app
[05:42] <squinty> DanTurtle:  might also want to try   alsamixer   in a terminal.   there is also   pavucontrol (install via the repo's) you could use to cross reference what your desktop sound settings are telling you    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alsamixer  for alsamixer docs
[05:43] <DanTurtle> OKay.
[05:43] <DanTurtle> Don't know if ya saw, but I have 2 items listed under playback and thinking one is for the front internal speaker.
[05:44] <StarOnD> how can I copy ubuntu iso from my DVD drive to a directory on the hard disk?
[05:45] <Ben64> StarOnD: is the iso on the dvd as a file?
[05:51] <silv3r_m00n> hi there, one machine had asus nvidia card, and another had zotak nvidia card and both ubuntu, after around 1 year, the machines refuse to boot, nothing comes up on the monitor, and then i have to remove the graphic cards to make them normal
[05:51] <silv3r_m00n> why do graphic cards fail so much ?
[05:53] <truepurple> Because of me
[05:53] <truepurple> I'm so awesome, they just give up
[05:57] <squinty> silv3r_m00n:  if they work again after reseating, it more than likely is due to "creep" due to thermal expansion/contraction in their slots.  Early computer chips were notorious for this behaviour...once reseated properly they functioned as normal
[05:57] <djinja> I don't know how uploaded the djangocon.us videos. but KUDOS!!! (for those interested: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE7tQUdRKcybbNiuhLcc3h6WzmZGVBMr3)
[05:57] <somsip> djinja: no spam here thanks
[05:57] <djinja> s/how/who
[05:57] <djinja> somsip: are you kidding me :D
[05:58] <somsip> !topic | djinja
[05:58] <djinja> somsip: check the link out, they are the video
[05:58] <djinja> somsip: ow sorry
[05:58] <silv3r_m00n> squinty: i see, i havent tried that, i was just thinking of throwing the cards away
[05:58] <RoBo_V> silv3r_m00n: yesterday I watched interview with Linus, they say "Fuck you Nvidia" nvidia has worst support with linux...
[05:58] <djinja> somsip: wrong channel
[05:58] <djinja> somsip: wanted to be in #django
[05:58] <djinja> somsip: my mistake, apologies
[05:58] <silv3r_m00n> its too much of effort to open the cabinet and fit things in and out
[05:59] <silv3r_m00n> RoBo_V: the drivers work fine, just that problems pop up after some days
[05:59] <somsip> silv3r_m00n: FWIW, my video cards seats badly and every once in a while I have to take it out, clean the contacts, and it works fine. But I leave ina  very humid place so I'd expect this
[06:00] <silv3r_m00n> on one machine i was converting a video with openshot when suddenly the computer rebooted itself and nothing came on screen until i removed the card
[06:00] <silv3r_m00n> somsip: oh, well humidity is here too, but .... such thing never happens with RAM, they too are like card into slots
[06:00] <somsip> silv3r_m00n: agree - I don'
[06:01] <somsip> 't have the problem with RAM, but have had this with 2 different video cards. Could always be a dodgy mobo though
[06:01] <silv3r_m00n> mobo ? these are usual gigabyte and intel mobos, what better can i get
[06:02] <somsip> silv3r_m00n: a branded mobo can stil be faulty, or get that way in a humid environment. Anyway, this is OT so no more from me on this
[06:02] <silv3r_m00n> okay
[06:02] <squinty> silv3r_m00n: it can happen with ram modules too but less these days I suspect because of the lock down tabs.
[06:04] <silv3r_m00n> i will need to fit it back in to see if it gone bad, or just needed cleaning
[06:05] <silv3r_m00n> i read somewhere that wrong software can burn the graphics card
[06:06] <Necromancerkts> nnnn
[06:06] <malkauns_> silv3r_m00n: prolly a myth
[06:07] <renno> hello
[06:08] <renno> for some reason I managed reproduce the issue described at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnumeric/+bug/570836 with Xubuntu 14.04
[06:09] <renno> according to bug report, it is fixed
[06:10] <renno> has anyone ideas how to fix it_
[06:10] <renno> ?
[06:14] <DF3D2> I am not understanding what is going on, When I pick a different session in lightdm it simply "blinks" then goes back to the login screen, I'm not sure how to debug this. I'm on Lubuntu but I wanted to try "gnome" it just doesn't seem to work. Even the standard Lubuntu session doesn't work unless I use "lxdm", "gdm" doesn't work at all the error message indicates a syntax error in the init script.

[06:20] <DF3D2> I fixed the gdm issue, had an extra "fi" on line 79
[06:20] <DF3D2> gonna reboot and see if that will work
[06:20] <DF3D2> well, kill x that is
[06:23] <shellox> hi
[06:24] <shellox> is it possible to obtain a url of the apt repos in their current state?
[06:30] <squinty> shellox:  not quite sure exactly what you mean but you may want to check out the following  http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[06:32] <shellox> squinty: amazon linux for example takes snapshot of a repo in it's current state. was thinking ubuntu also does that?
[06:33] <shellox> it means like i update QA to the latest packages, can get a URL of the repo in it's current state on friday, point production to this url, and it will have exactly the same versions like the QA server
[06:33] <shellox> one week later i update QA again, get a new url for the repo, point production there and update again
[06:35] <somsip> shellox: you just update them at the same time.
[06:36] <shellox> somsip: hmm..that's not really an option.
[06:36] <shellox> our devs need to review QA etc. so it takes some time
[06:36] <somsip> shellox: and probably just for security updates, which are pretty safe to do. Hence the availibility of unattended upgrades
[06:37] <shellox> somsip: i manage the server with chef so i need to be sure it works :P
[06:37] <Alderzan> Any of you excited for 14.10?
[06:37] <somsip> shellox: I run about 70 EC2 instances with unattended upgrades (security only) with no problems. Dev and production
[06:39] <shellox> somsip: how do you trigger the install point?
[06:39] <shellox> using that: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticSecurityUpdates ?
[06:39] <somsip> shellox: what do you mean 'trigger the install point'. I build from a common AMI using Ansible, but kept specific AMIs of some servers that need spinning up ad hoc. And yes, for security updates
[06:41] <shellox> i mean which package does the automatic security update for you? the "unattended-upgrades" package?
[06:42] <somsip> shellox: yes. Installed by default IIRC, but enabled in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic
[06:48] <shellox> somsip: How are you upgrading packages, which are not managed by your ansible configuration?
[06:50] <somsip> shellox: get a base ami. Upgrade everything. Enable security upgrades. Save as base AMI. Create Chef Recipe to build a server from the base AMI. Say, one for webserver, one for DB. Whatever. Each build will then have the same packages with only security upgrades applied. If you decide to apply a minor upgrade to a specific package, rebuild your base AMI and test in QA before rolling out to production
[06:51] <shellox> somsip: i guess that works if you use just amazon, which we don't :)
[06:51] <somsip> shellox: I use Rackspace too. It's not a willy waving competition here...
[06:51] <shellox> somsip: we host locally on real hardware
[06:52] <somsip> shellox: super. So what's your base problem?
[06:59] <shellox> somsip: enabling security updates isn't part of your ansible recipe right
[06:59] <somsip> shellox: currently it is, but as it applies to every server it would be better being saved in the base AMI
[07:00] <shellox> somsip: yeah, i guess you could also just make a bootstrap shell script when starting a new ec2 instance from the base image
[07:00] <shellox> so you don't need to save your own base image
[07:01] <somsip> shellox: that's pretty much where it is now. Having it all in a recipe/script allows flexibility. Having too much 'hardcoded' in the base AMI can be less flexible
[07:01] <truepurple>  can you install flash under wine?
[07:02] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:02] <trijntje> truepurple: what are you trying to do?
[07:04] <somsip> shellox: I suppose the main one I can think of is package upgrades. If tht's in a script, each server could be different. If a base AMI includes the packages that you want to upgrade, then each server just has security upgrades on top.
[07:04] <truepurple> run flash game on browser under wine
[07:05] <Ulrik> With regards to dash scopes. Clicking the "applications" scope shows a few entries even with no search term entered. Is there any way I can get that same functionality for the "home scope"? I want some pinned apps to appear there instead of the "no search results" message.
[07:05] <truepurple> I download flash, but its not working
[07:05] <trijntje> truepurple: isn't it easier to install flash in ubuntu instead of wine?
[07:05] <truepurple> Nothing comes up, when I try again it says only one instance but first instance won't work
[07:06] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:06] <truepurple> except I am trying to get a program called cheat engine to work to slow down a flash game
[07:06] <truepurple> and cheat engine is a win program
[07:07] <somsip> truepurple: sourcecode is available, but you've beat this one to death in this channel already today
[07:07] <truepurple> goals the same, but I am asking about a completely different method
[07:07] <somsip> truepurple: good luck
[07:08] <truepurple> And I never got help with that, so don't berate me
[07:08] <trijntje> truepurple: wine is complicated, and not guaranteed to work. So install flash in ubuntu and install the cheating thingy from source
[07:08] <shellox> somsip: i see. currently i have on vmware fusion vm and in the future i will add one ec2 instance for prod. currently i used the base image, run chef against the server and the aptitude full-upgrade after a week to update stuff
[07:08] <somsip> truepurple: a few people tried to help. Just because they didn't give you the answer you were hoping for.
[07:08] <truepurple> another reason to run flash under wine is, flash stopped updating for ubuntu
[07:09] <truepurple> no, that is wrong somsip
[07:09] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:09] <truepurple> again, help if you like, but get off my case if you can't or wont
[07:09] <somsip> shellox: and when I saw your first message it seemed like the full update was causing the problem for you - between QA and production. So you need to move that to a different part of the process. Like to the base image.
[07:10] <truepurple> trijntje, What do you mean, install it from source?
[07:11] <trijntje> truepurple: http://www.cheatengine.org/downloads.php
[07:12] <shellox> somsip: hmm, the base image was my idea first, but EC2 and vmware are different products, so i would need to maintain two i guess
[07:12] <somsip> shellox: possibly. Or you're getting into a lot of pinning which seems ugly.
[07:13] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:13] <shellox> somsip: yeah, so the solution with a unique url like in amazon linux seemed cool hehe
[07:13] <shellox> some people also seem to run their own mirror
[07:13] <shellox> but that seems like a lot of work for 2 servers ;)
[07:14] <somsip> shellox: I think that is a bigger solution...you've said it
[07:14] <truepurple> trijntje, and? I need wine or windows to run it
[07:15] <trijntje> truepurple: how do you know? Have you tried compiling it on ubuntu?
[07:15] <truepurple> trijntje, no, because I barely know what compiling even is
[07:16] <trijntje> truepurple: ok, then your chances of getting wine to work are not very good, if its *possible* at all. Just use windows if you want to cheat, or don't cheat at all
[07:16] <shellox> somsip: so you would still go with the image solution in my case?
[07:17] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:17] <somsip> shellox: go with the one workable solution you have, which is two base images. Then you can get on with producing the result needed by your boss/client/company while you come up with something better
[07:18] <somsip> shellox: better in terms of being easier to maintain. KLike I nearly suggest Docker, then winced and thought not.
[07:18] <truepurple> trijntje, So you won't help me to get this to work?
[07:18] <bacteria> whatup
[07:18] <bellow> hello
[07:18] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:18] <trijntje> truepurple: no. I don't really know how to help you, plus helping someone to cheat isn't really worth my time
[07:18] <shellox> somsip: what would be something better in your opinion :)?
[07:19] <shellox> somsip: don't really have a time limit for that thing, so should be ok :P
[07:19] <somsip> shellox: I've given you my advice. I don't know your needs inside out, like needed local hardware, so I can't really offer all-encompassing advice.
[07:19] <Ulrik> Is there really no way to pin apps to the home scope? Seems so strange to have a "no results" screen as the first thing that appears.
[07:19] <truepurple> trijntje, got any ideas on how to slow down a program in ubuntu?
[07:22] <shellox> somsip: i see. thanks, i will try to create two base images and see how it goes from there
[07:22] <somsip> shellox: np
[07:23] <TheHighestFive> hey guys. I'm having a bit of trouble using Ubuntu 14.04 anyone know it well enough to try and help?
[07:23] <shellox> somsip: i guess just running ec2 would be easier, just it's much more expensive here in asia ;)
[07:23] <somsip> !details | truepurple
[07:23] <shellox> so that's why QA is local
[07:23] <somsip> TheHighestFive: We need more details
[07:23] <TheHighestFive> Whitelist systray apps
[07:23] <TheHighestFive> sorry, let me start from the beginning.
[07:24] <somsip> shellox: I'm in Asia. Our market is in US so we use US servers. If your market is SEA, then I suppose you'd need to run HK or Singapore regions
[07:25] <shellox> somsip: indeed we do. EC2 will be in singapore.
[07:25] <somsip> shellox: fair enough
[07:25] <shellox> somsip: just we use rails and have a 8 core box in the office for QA, because it's much faster for our devs than having a server on EC2 ;)
[07:26] <TheHighestFive> I'm tyring to access crytpkeeper in 14.04 that worked fine in 12.04. It won't allow me to access it because it always was dependant an icon in the panel. I've found multiple askubuntu threads saying the issue is com.canonical.unity.panel has been removed. I've found a ppa that apparently helped everyone else, but when I did what it said I go into both gsettings in the terminal and dconf editor and panel is still missing. So I can
[07:26] <TheHighestFive> 't whitelist systray apps. any ideas?
[07:26] <somsip> shellox: there's another solution then. Everything on EC2 and one base image.
[07:28] <shellox> somsip: yeah, but that's quite expensive :)
[07:28] <somsip> shellox: or local hardware for testing, and a staging server on EC2 so you can test before rolling to production. Doesn't really matter if dev is different as long as staging and product are built on the same AMI
[07:28] <somsip> shellox: then you only spin up the staging server for short periods before a release. Not much extra costs. Tada
[07:29] <somsip> shellox: sorry - my typos are bad. Hope you see what I'm getting at
[07:29] <shellox> somsip: good thought, thanks.
[07:29] <shellox> would be better to have exactly the same instance type as later in production
[07:30] <somsip> shellox: yes, but stop it when not needed. Anyway, I think this has gone away from a question about updates and onto one about server infrastructure and cloud services. We're off topic...
[07:31] <shellox> somsip: still tahnks :P
[07:31] <somsip> shellox: np :)
[07:33] <TheHighestFive> simsip: did you read my issue yet and have any ideas?
[07:33] <somsip> TheHighestFive: I don't use unity and have no idea.
[07:33] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:34] <TheHighestFive> damn. okay. thanks anyway. Anyone in here that is giving answers also?
[07:34] <TheHighestFive> that knows unity
[07:42] <trap_exit> anyone found a good 17" laptop alternative to the 17" mbp ?
[07:44] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:48] <user1234> please tell me how to upgrade ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04
[07:49] <user1234> do-release-upgrade will work?
[07:49] <tasslehoff> I am connected to an embedded target via ethernet, and have setup a link-local connection. When said target reboots, it takes Ubuntu a long time to find it again. Is it possible to speed up (lower timeouts?) Link Local connections?
[07:51] <Ben64> !eolupgrade | user1234
[07:51] <user1234> thanku
[07:52] <tasslehoff> guess that is an avahi question, so never mind
[07:55] <Matsy> Hey everyone
[07:55] <Matsy> I am looking for an Exchange client for ubuntu
[07:55] <helmut_> hi
[07:55] <Matsy> That is not Thunderbird
[07:55] <Matsy> But at least has a decent interface
[07:55] <ikonia> Matsy: you're going to struggle
[07:55] <Matsy> I figured as much
[07:55] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[07:55] <ikonia> evolution is the only real one, but that is basically doing the imap thing
[07:56] <Matsy> Yeah, I don't want that
[07:56] <Matsy> I need to open shared folders and the likes
[07:56] <Matsy> Which Thunderbird also can't do
[07:56] <ikonia> Matsy: I don't think there is anything that does that
[07:56] <Matsy> Do I really need Outlook in a VM for that?
[07:56] <ikonia> Matsy: I often use the web client for that
[07:56] <Matsy> ikonia: How, after all these years, is there nothing that does this
[07:56] <ikonia> Matsy: because it's not open source.
[07:56] <Matsy> Airplay isn't OS either
[07:56] <ikonia> Matsy: so people can't / struggle to develop a solution
[07:57] <Matsy> Hm, sounds reasonable
[07:57] <Matsy> Time to open up VirtualBox then
[08:01] <Matsy> Thanks, ikonia
[08:05] <slyboots_> Good monring
[08:06] <slyboots_> Im curious, is anyone aware ofa guide on installing E19 on Ubuntu 14.04 that does NOT use the Bohdi linux repo (since its no-longer maintained)
[08:06] <slyboots_> So that seems like something of a bad idea using it
[08:06] <ikonia> the concept would be the same, but using a different supported repo
[08:09] <slyboots_> Are there any supported Repo's?  All the guides I find just say "Oh use Bohdi linux's repo"
[08:10] <ikonia> #ubuntu doesn't support any non-ubuntu repos
[08:10] <ikonia> in terms of support by their maintainer, no idea, that can change by the hour/the way the wind blows
[08:12] <slyboots_> Mmm, I was just pondering if there was a PPA or.. something
[08:12] <slyboots_> the standard gnome install is way to resource heavy
[08:24] <sobczyk> is there a way to install regular ubuntu on a flash drive? startup disk creator only handles fat fromatted drives, I'd like full ext4
[08:25] <Ben64> you can install it using the installer
[08:25] <sobczyk> that would require to reboot my pc
[08:25] <Ben64> correct
[08:25] <sobczyk> and have installation media
[08:25] <Ben64> indeed
[08:26] <Ben64> but that is the only way of installing ubuntu
[08:26] <sobczyk> is there any way to do it live?
[08:26] <ikonia> live ?
[08:27] <Ben64> might be able to boot the iso with virtualbox and have the usb on that, but i'm not sure if that'd work
[08:27] <k1l_> use a vbox
[08:27] <sobczyk> from a running ubuntu to an ext4 formatted pendrive
[08:27] <ikonia> not really
[08:27] <ikonia> why don't you want to reboot/use install media ?
[08:27] <sobczyk> I have work to do, except the ubuntu
[08:28] <ikonia> then install it later, after the work
[08:28] <sobczyk> I'll try the vbos one
[08:28] <sobczyk> VBox
[08:28] <ikonia> and a reboot takes what, 90 seconds ? can't you burn 90 seconds
[08:29] <Thumpxr> Ben64: sobczyk: The VBox method works. Did it like 20 mins ago :)
[08:33] <truepurple> BTW, found a way to slow down program
[08:37] <vitimiti> hi
[08:39] <Pencil_> hello
[08:40] <trijntje> truepurple: how? other people might have the same problem one day
[08:41] <shellox> I've installed the unattended-upgrades package and did 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow unattended-upgrades'
[08:42] <shellox> how frequently does it install automatic updates now?
[08:47] <lonix> Anyone know of a way to check if a new package version is avalible for a script, like if [ $(apt-get install package) ]; then echo package "$package is out of date"; fi
[08:49] <somsip> lonix: use -s or --dry-run and parse the output?
[08:49] <Pencil_> I click on my home folder and nothing happens.  Reboot didn't help.  I Would like to reload if I could move my files over.
[08:50] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[08:50] <lonix> somsip: i guess i could do that
[08:52] <s5fs> Ubuntu 14.04 on a dell xps 15 is acting weird. When I resume from a suspend (ie, open the lid), sometimes my lock screen is not present and I'm just sitting at the desktop. This seems wildly insecure, how can I fix?
[08:59] <Pencil_> How do you learn ubuntu well enough  to help others on here?
[08:59] <taruti> What is the correct place to save a "iw dev wlan0 set power_save on" on 14.04 /etc/network/interfaces? somewhere else?
[08:59] <ikonia> Pencil_: experience
[08:59] <taruti> (the machine keeps crashing without that so enabling it early in bootup seems good)
[09:00] <slyboots_> Pencil_: Practice.
[09:01] <Pencil_> Where do you look up the answers.  Would like to at least get started self training.
[09:02] <pork-upine> is it possible to disable middle click pasting stuff?
[09:02] <Jango87> hy
[09:03] <Jango87> Can someone help me a little?
[09:03] <Steve_Jobs> anyone notice that ssh -X u@s messes up know hosts?
[09:04] <Steve_Jobs> After I do that, I get prompted for a password when I try to ssh
[09:04] <Steve_Jobs> any idea why?
[09:04] <Jango87> no, im new here, and in ubuntu too
[09:04] <ikonia> it doesn't mess up known hosts
[09:04] <somsip> Jango87: if you have a problem, just explain what it is and maybe someone can help
[09:04] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: what does it do?
[09:04] <Jango87> only am here for some help :)
[09:05] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: nothing
[09:05] <Jango87> want to install amd r7 250 2gb ddr3 on trusty tahr
[09:05] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: ok.. so why does ssh now require a password?
[09:05] <k1l> Steve_Jobs: you know what ssh -X is for?
[09:05] <Jango87> but am new in the terminal do's :D
[09:05] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: no idea, could be any reason
[09:05] <Steve_Jobs> I've ssh-copy-id the public key
[09:05] <TheBigDeal> Morning everybody.
[09:05] <Steve_Jobs> k1l: yes.
[09:06] <ActionParsnip> Jango87: more than i've got, go for it
[09:06] <k1l> Jango87: and where is the problem?
[09:07] <Jango87> that im a new user, only used windows before, and doesnt know how to
[09:07] <TheBigDeal> I did some wrong modifications on my boot.ini file windows, can i use some kind of linux distro like DSL, to edit that file and restore my windows?
[09:07] <Ben64> probably a better question for ##windows
[09:07] <somsip> TheBigDeal: this isn't windows support. It also isnt' DSL support. You could use ubuntu live DVD to get access to the drives.
[09:07] <k1l> Jango87: make a ubuntu-cd or ubuntu-usb-pendrive and start the installer
[09:07] <pork-upine> is it possible to disable middle click pasting stuff?
[09:08] <TheBigDeal> somsip, Ubuntu is huge.
[09:08] <somsip> pork-upine: what do you want middle click to do?
[09:08] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: any better room than this to find out why my ssh is reverting to passwords after the '-X' sessions?
[09:08] <somsip> TheBigDeal: then maybe asking in the ubuntu support channel is not the best idea
[09:08] <Damien> TheBigDeal, try lubuntu.
[09:08] <k1l> TheBigDeal: if you dont like ubuntu better ask in ##windows
[09:08] <TheBigDeal> somsip, This problem doesn't need a big linux distro afaik
[09:08] <Jango87> i have ubuntu. just doesnt know how to install the video card on it
[09:08] <k1l> TheBigDeal: this is the _ubuntu_ support.
[09:08] <TheBigDeal> :D thanks guys
[09:08] <Mr_Quist> @ TheBigDeal yes just boot up a live CD / DVD
[09:08] <TheBigDeal> I got that
[09:09] <k1l> Jango87: is there a issue with the grafics?
[09:09] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: I suspect it's nothing to do with -X
[09:09] <Mr_Quist> you can open up NTFS drives and you can edit files
[09:09] <Jango87> yes k1l
[09:09] <pork-upine> somsip: i don't mind using it to open new tabs and such in browsers but middle click pasting by accident in the wrong window such as irc has given me problems
[09:09] <Mr_Quist> Jango87, try windows. AMD has good driver support for windows.
[09:09] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: what else could it be?
[09:09] <k1l> Jango87: then tell us details! we dont see what you see
[09:09] <Mr_Quist>  ~ Don't feed the troll ~
[09:09] <Jango87> yeah, but i dont want win anymore, just learn ubuntu
[09:09] <Mr_Quist> Good job
[09:09] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: why don't you debug it to find out why, then look at what appene to change that
[09:10] <Mr_Quist> but what issues are you having exactly?
[09:10] <Mr_Quist> and what did you try?
[09:10] <benedikt> is it possible to upgrade from raring to the latest lts in one go?
[09:10] <ikonia> benedikt: it's not
[09:10] <Jango87> if a start a video, it is like used some lsd :D
[09:10] <k1l> benedikt: no
[09:10] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: I did. googling only showed the typical chmod 600 and 700 on the files
[09:10] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | benedikt,
[09:10] <Mr_Quist> okay, but only if you're watching a video?
[09:10] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: googling is not debugging it
[09:10] <Jango87> yes
[09:10] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: nothing there was helpful. I have the proper permissions
[09:10] <k1l> Jango87: that could be a codecs issue
[09:10] <Mr_Quist> not if you're just using the PC ?
[09:11] <cfhowlett> benedikt,  you can clean install directly to 14.04.1
[09:11] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: I ran ssh -vvvv -i myidfile ...
[09:11] <benedikt> great.. i should updae more frequently..
[09:11] <Mr_Quist> k1l probably not, it has to do with the videocard decoding something
[09:11] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: I googled the anomilies
[09:11] <Mr_Quist> if a software codec doesn't work it wont show anything in 99% of the cases
[09:11] <k1l> benedikt: if you dont want to upgrade that often stay on LTS in first place
[09:11] <Steve_Jobs> all suggested permission issues
[09:11] <slyboots_> me sighs.. this is annoying
[09:11] <Mr_Quist> so sounds like the GPU tries to decodel, say, an MP4, but the drivers are crap
[09:11] <Jango87> google say, i should install catalyst, i know it, i used it before on win, but doesnt know how to get it here
[09:11] <pork-upine> so theres no way to disable middle click pasting?
[09:11] <Mr_Quist> Welcome to the wonder world of Linux, Jango87!
[09:11] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: run ssh -vv in the connetion and see why it's not using keys
[09:12] <k1l> Jango87: "sudo apt-get install fglrx"
[09:12] <Mr_Quist> ...
[09:12] <Mr_Quist> or that
[09:12] <Mr_Quist> http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/latest-linux-beta-driver.aspx
[09:12] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: what anomilies ?
[09:12] <k1l> Mr_Quist: stop that
[09:12] <slyboots_> Installed Ubuntu server, and installed Enlightement but .. I think its missing like requirments
[09:12] <Jango87> Mr Quist, thx, i like it, just dont know a lot
[09:12] <k1l> Jango87: dont load anything from websites. use the drivers that are shipped from ubuntu and made work with ubuntu
[09:13] <Mr_Quist> Jango87, sure, its quite a hassle if you're from windows in the beginning, but once you get to know your little pinguin he's allright
[09:13] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: it said it couldn't present the file
[09:13] <k1l> Jango87: sudo apt-get install fglrx
[09:13] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: which file
[09:13] <somsip> pork-upine: lots of solution available, but you'll need to check to see what might suit your needs http://is.gd/4BF2PG http://is.gd/9IckHH
[09:13] <pork-upine> thanks
[09:13] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: it didn't specify in that message
[09:13] <cfhowlett> slyboots_, server + enlightenment? ask #ubuntu-server
[09:13] <geksong> ubuntu support rtl8192ee~?
[09:13] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: it really does
[09:13] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: it doesn't just say "can't offer the file"
[09:13] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: there are lines before/after that to show you what it's talking about
[09:14] <Jango87> okay, it says, fglrx runs with  the newest version
[09:14] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: I'll check the logs and pastebin
[09:14] <somsip> pork-upine: and another collection here http://is.gd/nZ569f
[09:15] <k1l> Jango87: so you got the fglrx already
[09:15] <Jango87> videos are still crazy
[09:15] <Jango87> yes, got it for 30 minutes :D
[09:15]  * slyboots_ mmms
[09:17] <Steve_Jobs> ikonia: found this in the auth log:  pam_succeed_if(lightdm:auth): requirement "user ingroup nopasswdlogin" not met by user "me"
[09:18] <Steve_Jobs> me is me
[09:18] <Steve_Jobs> that didn't show up in the vv output obviously
[09:18] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: that's lightdm
[09:18] <ikonia> Steve_Jobs: that is nothing to do with ssh
[09:18] <Steve_Jobs> hmmm
[09:18] <ikonia> it doesn't show up in the ssh -vv output because it's nothing to do with ssh
[09:18] <Jango87> where can i ask questions as a newbie?
[09:18] <k1l> Steve_Jobs: what is your ssh command? (you can make xxx instead of the ip/url)
[09:18] <Jango87> pls
[09:19] <Steve_Jobs> k1l: it's just ssh main
[09:19] <ikonia> Jango87: just ask
[09:19] <Steve_Jobs> I have a host entry for main
[09:19] <k1l> Jango87: just ask here. but you need to give as much infos as possible. we dont see what you see
[09:19] <k1l> Steve_Jobs: so you dont start a program with -X?
[09:20] <Steve_Jobs> k1l: I did
[09:20] <Jango87> so got the newest fglrx, but videos are still s..t
[09:20] <Steve_Jobs> so at one point I did ssh -X main
[09:20] <Steve_Jobs> so that I could launch a gui app locally
[09:20] <ikonia> Jango87: there is no need to try to swear, just be polite please.
[09:20] <k1l> Steve_Jobs: what? -X is for single programs.
[09:20] <k1l> Steve_Jobs: please show the real command!
[09:21] <Steve_Jobs> k1l: ssh -X main
[09:21] <rdz> hey all..how to clean dns cache on ubuntu 14.04?
[09:21] <reversiblean> Is it safe to do updates while using a mainline kernel? won't they conflict with my default non-upstream kernel?
[09:21] <k1l> Steve_Jobs: ssh -X u@s program
[09:21] <ikonia> rdz: why do you think it's caching
[09:21] <k1l> Steve_Jobs: that is what it looks like
[09:21] <Steve_Jobs> k1l: then when I'm in there I'll do something like gedit &
[09:21] <rdz> ikonia, because i checked on the dns server directly and there i get different results
[09:21] <Jango87> ikonia, it wasnt a swear, it was the describe about the videos quality, im not the type with this
[09:22] <vitimiti> Steve_Jobs, they are telling you to use ssh -X u@s gedit
[09:22] <Steve_Jobs> k1l: and that works as expected
[09:22] <ikonia> rdz: the dns master or a slave ?
[09:22] <Steve_Jobs> vitimiti: sure
[09:22] <rdz> ikonia, but yes, i also would like to know how to find out what is my dns server.. i am using dhcp and resolv.conf says 127.0.0.1
[09:22] <ikonia> Jango87: description using swearing is not acceptable, please be polite and define things clearly
[09:22] <Steve_Jobs> vitimiti: I'm wondering why ssh requires a password now
[09:22] <rdz> ikonia, slave
[09:22] <ikonia> rdz: so the slave has probably not updated yet due to the expire record/time to live
[09:22] <rdz> ikonia, i don't get how things work on ubuntu desktop nowadays.. seems all hidden in network-manager somehow
[09:23] <Jango87> still more answere, than for the question, but thx for doing right :D
[09:23] <rdz> ikonia, i checked on the slave and there it is ok
[09:23] <ikonia> rdz: you just said you don't know what dns servers you are using ?
[09:23] <Jango87> kedvesek ezek az angolok is
[09:23] <ikonia> rdz: how are you checking these things if you don't know what you're using
[09:23] <rdz> ikonia, it's only my box that has old entries.. windows boxes in the same network show actual results
[09:24] <rdz> ikonia, i know what the dhcp is configured to give clients as dns server, but i wasn't able to confirm that on my ubuntu system
[09:24] <ikonia> Jango87: this is getting tedious now let me try to make the way this channel works
[09:24] <ikonia> Jango87: 1.) please talk in clear english 2.) explain your problem as clearly as possible 3.) no swearing/bad language for any reason
[09:24] <Jango87> trusty tahr, video card: amd r7 250, videos look like someone used lsd
[09:25] <rdz> ikonia, how can you check on ubuntu 14.04 desktop what dns you have?
[09:25] <ikonia> rdz: ok, so if you do "nslookup" and then set "server $whatever" and then check the domain from within that session, what do you actually get
[09:25] <rdz> ikonia, and how can you clear dns chaches? are you saying, there is no cache?
[09:25] <reversiblean> rdz: nm-tool
[09:25] <ikonia> rdz: I'm saying it's very very unlikley it's a local cache problem,
[09:26] <ikonia> rdz: not impossible, but unlikely
[09:26] <Jango87> ikonia, thanks for the help, hope once you come to my land, and i will be your doctor :)
[09:26] <Skizu> Hey I'm trying to mount a share folder, and I get /sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: Protocol error
[09:26] <Steve_Jobs> k1l: it's not asking me for the password anymore. I'm connected from another terminal though. I wonder if that's something to do with it
[09:27] <rdz> ikonia, *** Can't find host: No answer
[09:27] <Steve_Jobs> after years of connecting via ssh with no password, this is the first time I've had this happen
[09:27] <ikonia> rdz: so.....that means that dns server isn't being resolved
[09:27] <rdz> ikonia, when i ping the same hostname on the said dns server, i get a response..
[09:27] <ikonia> rdz: ping is not dns
[09:28] <rdz> ikonia, true
[09:28] <ikonia> rdz: the host is there, but it's not responding
[09:28] <rdz> may i privately send you the whole ouput?
[09:28] <ikonia> rdz: just use a pastebin
[09:28] <ikonia> then paste the url in the channel
[09:29] <rdz> ikonia, http://pastie.org/9574935
[09:29] <rdz> dns is found, but when asked about the host in question, there is no answer...
[09:30] <ikonia> rdz: why are you typing "host"
[09:30] <ikonia> just type the name of the host you want to resolve
[09:30] <rdz> ikonia, sorry.. i'm not familiar with interactive nslookup
[09:30] <Jango87> tried google...find nothing helpful, tried amd and ubuntu homepage, found nothing helpful, tried homecountry irc, everyone said, dont care on newbies, tried this irc, no one cares on the question but if say s...on the video quality, have 3 issue...nice community, sympatic ubuntu :)
[09:31] <ikonia> Jango87: your complaining/attitude is possibly why you are not getting help
[09:31] <ikonia> it's certainly why I don't want to walk through a problem with you
[09:31] <ikonia> try just asking the question clearly, and waiting for a response, then responding when asked with that same clarity
[09:31] <rdz> ikonia, ok, this looks like what i'd expect:
[09:31] <rdz> http://pastie.org/9574940
[09:31] <ikonia> people are busy and don't drop everything
[09:32] <Jango87> all that without see me or know me? genius...
[09:32] <ikonia> Jango87: </attitude>
[09:32] <ikonia> rdz: ok, cool, so you know that dns server is working
[09:32] <ikonia> rdz: so look at dnsmasq cache
[09:32] <matty1234> HI, anyone here know about server security?
[09:32] <ikonia> rdz: ubuntu uses dnsmasq now
[09:32] <ikonia> matty1234: just ask, what's the issue
[09:32] <rdz> ikonia, i figured, but didn't find out how to restart
[09:32] <cappe> can't download flash plugin from software center... Failed to fetch http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-installer_11.2.202.394ubuntu0.14.04.1_amd64.deb 404  Not Found [IP: 130.239.18.173 80]
[09:32] <cappe>  what shall I do?
[09:33] <k1l> Jango87: i tried to help you, but you were not able to tell details. i cant just guess what you use and what you see for errors. so i stopped.
[09:33] <Ben64> Jango87: it's really hard to follow what your actual problem is. take the time and energy you're spending on complaining and put it into describing
[09:33] <matty1234> Is it wise to install: iptables, psad, tripwire, mod_security, and artillery on one server?
[09:33] <k1l> Jango87: maybe you weill find a better way on askubuntu.com or ubuntuforums.com
[09:33] <matty1234> Or does it overlap one another?
[09:33] <ikonia> matty1234: it can be, you need to really asses what you need and how you want to use them,
[09:33] <Jango87> k1l, your right, but what else details should i give? i do if you say wich
[09:33] <ikonia> matty1234: look at your expectations, and work out what products and how to use them
[09:34] <Ben64> Jango87: as much as possible
[09:34] <typ> cappe: http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-installer_11.2.202.406ubuntu0.14.04.1_amd64.deb
[09:34] <typ> use that?
[09:34] <matty1234> ikonia, i want to build a very secure server.  However from the vague descriptions of each module I'm worried that they might conflict with one another
[09:34] <k1l> !details | Jango87
[09:34] <ikonia> matty1234: if you want to build a very secure server, you need to understand the security risks AND the tools very well
[09:34] <ikonia> matty1234: just putting things on blindly will not help
[09:35] <matty1234> ikonia i know right?
[09:35] <reversiblean> cappe: Open software and updates; then switch to ubuntu main server
[09:35] <ikonia> matty1234: sorry what /
[09:35] <k1l> Jango87: so which video card, which driver, what actual issue? any errormessages? maybe try other video file? etc etc
[09:35] <rdz> ikonia, is 'restart network-manager' supposed to restart dnsmasq as well?
[09:35] <ikonia> rdz: http://pastie.org/9574940
[09:35] <ikonia> oops
[09:35] <ikonia> sorry not that
[09:35] <matty1234> That I can't just put in things blindly :)  I was hoping to get some wisdom as to the best practices people use.  What do they install to have a hardened server
[09:35] <ikonia> rdz: --clear-on-reload
[09:36] <pepec> !ciao
[09:36] <ikonia> rdz: that appears to be the dnsmasq flag for clearing the cache
[09:36] <cappe> reversiblean where is that setting?
[09:36] <ikonia> rdz: -c 0 will disable future caching/use of cache
[09:37] <cfhowlett> matty1234, ask #ubuntu-server channel??
[09:37] <reversiblean> cappe: software and update > choose 'Main Server' from the drop down menu under 'Download from'
[09:37] <ikonia> rdz: it looks like dnsmasq has a lot of caching options available, making it a lot more advanced than I thought it was
[09:37] <Jango87> so there 3 new things in the pc...new ram, new video card (amd r7 250 2gb ddr3) and new system (trusty tahr), internet is fine, games doesnt know yet, but videos are full of colors sometimes not even standing picture. fglrx installed
[09:37] <rdz> ikonia, it seems like dnsmasq is started by network-manager, is that correct? if so, how/where can i pass those flags?
[09:37] <ikonia> rdz: yes, it is loaded by network manager
[09:37] <matty1234> okay thanks
[09:37] <ikonia> rdz: normally something like /etc/NetworkManager
[09:37] <Jango87> never used linux before
[09:38] <Ben64> Jango87: explain these "videos"
[09:38] <rdz> ikonia, ah, i see
[09:38] <ikonia> rdz: that directory normally contains a list of modular config files
[09:38] <k1l> Jango87: ok, so you did run ubuntu and then changed the video card?
[09:38] <ikonia> rdz: I'm working from memory, so you'll need to check that
[09:38] <rdz> it's empty here.. but now i am on the right track
[09:38] <Jango87> Ben64: tried with more player, more tipe, mp4, xvid...and so on
[09:38] <rdz> ikonia, thousand thanks for all your help
[09:39] <k1l> Jango87: are the codecs installed?
[09:39] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[09:39] <Jango87> k1l, yes, ubuntu run, and then video card changed
[09:39] <rdz> i guess, now i figured how things work on recent ubuntus, i might be able to figure out the rest on my own
[09:39] <k1l> Jango87: can you pastebin the output from "dmesg" in terminal into a pastebin
[09:39] <Jango87> doesnt know how to run codecs on ubu
[09:39] <k1l> !codecs | Jango87
[09:40] <ikonia> rdz: it's not hard, network manager is modular
[09:41] <Jango87> thanks ubottu, will read it, just try first what k1l said. dmesg in the terminal
[09:43] <reversiblean> cappe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu , check under 'Download Server'
[09:43] <Jango87> tried dmesg, happened a lot, and it says: Changing the local hostname might make it unresolveable. Please install nss-myhostname!
[09:44] <k1l> Jango87: install the package"pastebinit" and then do "dmesg | pastebinit" and then copy the url into here
[09:46] <Jango87> k1l, okay, thanks :)
[09:48] <Jango87> installed pastebinit, but what does mean the second half? dmesg pastebinit
[09:49] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[09:50] <k1l> Jango87: put "dmesg | pastebinit" into terminal
[09:51] <Jango87> done, but it gives just this:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/8378704/
[09:53] <k1l> Jango87: fglrx: module verification failed: signature and/or  required key missing - tainting kernel
[09:53] <matty1234> I think Artillery overlaps with psad and tripwire except for its honeypot feature.  Is there a standalone honeypot?
[09:53] <Jango87> sorry, but doesnt understand anything from that
[09:54] <Jango87> means this a problem?
[09:54] <k1l> Jango87: hmmmm, but that should not be a problem, iirc
[10:01] <k1l> Jango87: i am not too familiar with amd grafix. but reading some posts this should not be an issue. if no one else knows on that issue you could try removing the fglrx and try the free driver or look if the codecs are right
[10:05] <Jango87> k1l, thanks for your lot of help
[10:05] <Layke> What's that toolbar project called for ubuntu? icvf or something?
[10:07] <sp3ck> Hi, i'm running an Ubuntu 12.04 vps as webserver and mail server. I found out that known_hosts file has about 60 lines of known host fingerprints which basically means there is a backdoor running reverse ssh and i'm sure because i havent used this box for outbound ssh connections. How can i trace back which file/s are invoking ssh outbound connections, so i can gather some info for the backdoor? thnx.
[10:08] <ikonia> sp3ck: rebuild the server
[10:08] <ikonia> sp3ck: nothing else matters
[10:09] <szysz> HEY
[10:09] <szysz> anybody know anything about 3d printers ?
[10:09] <szysz> to help me to chose one
[10:09] <Ben64> not in this channel
[10:10] <sp3ck> ikonia, well that's what i'm gonna do but i'm afraid the backdoor is somewhere in php of the websites so it will infect the server again.
[10:10] <shellox> how would i let run unattended-upgrades hourly instead of daily?
[10:10] <ikonia> sp3ck: at this point a.) you've got no reason to suspect that (unless you've not shard something) b.) on a potentially exploited platform, so can't trust anything of your debugging
[10:10] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[10:13] <EiriksUbuntu> i had a backup error that said it couldn't backup /home/goodin/.cache/dconf
[10:13] <EiriksUbuntu> /home/goodin/.dbus
[10:13] <EiriksUbuntu> /home/goodin/.gvfs
[10:14] <EiriksUbuntu> what should i do?
[10:15] <k1l> EiriksUbuntu: show the exact error in a pastebin.
[10:16] <sp3ck> ikonia, ok thank you.

[10:22] <dolanor> Hi
[10:22] <Guest27499> hi
[10:23] <dolanor> I can't create samba usershare with 14.04
[10:23] <Guest27499> we sciampagno
[10:23] <k1l> !it | Guest27499
[10:23] <dolanor> I try to access locally, or from other computers, and it always fail
[10:23] <Guest27499> ok grazie
[10:24] <k1l> EiriksUbuntu: ok, that is not a problem. that is just stuff that gets deleted on reboot anyway
[10:24] <Ben64> dolanor: you do need to set a smbpasswd
[10:25] <EiriksUbuntu> phew, thats awesome thank you k1l
[10:26] <kblin> hi folks
[10:30] <dolanor> Ben64, but I don't want to do that, I want to use the unix user for the rights
[10:30] <Griz64> Good Day gang. I want to install to two (2) identical hard drives, using RAID 1 but I don't see a way to do this via the standard installer. Am I missing something?
[10:30] <dolanor> Ben64, it was working super on 12.04. Why do we need to create smb user now ?
[10:30] <EiriksUbuntu> hi kblin
[10:32] <EiriksUbuntu> Griz64 you might be looking for apt-clone
[10:34] <Griz64> EiriksUbuntu, well, this is a fresh install so 'apt' isn't even installed. is there NOT a way to set this up via the installer?
[10:34] <Layke> How do I stop ubuntu from sending me to login every time I step away to make a coffee for 5 minutes? :)
[10:34] <kblin> so, if I have a touchpad that's not responding to input while I'm logged in, but works just fine when the screen is locked, where do I start looking to debug this?
[10:35] <jlo1234> Hi
[10:36] <EiriksUbuntu> Griz64 i wish i could help you more but i don't know enough to give you reliable advice
[10:37] <Ben64> Griz64: http://askubuntu.com/questions/505446/how-to-install-ubuntu-14-04-with-raid-1-using-desktop-installer
[10:37] <nullbyte_> hi all
[10:38] <EiriksUbuntu> Layke go to system settings then display and there is a lock option
[10:38] <EiriksUbuntu> awww
[10:39] <shellox> anyway figured it out
[10:39] <AleksejsHome> Hi, I have a problem with connecting dr-btn200 headphones to my PC with kubuntu: BT manager just doesn't find them. Any help?
[10:39] <Griz64> Ben64, that's what i needed! Thank You! Too bad the installer isn't able to do this on it's own. Especially since it DOES allow for LVM.
[10:40] <Ben64> Griz64: the mini installer might, or server, but i'm not sure
[10:41] <BobBall> Hi... I can't do dist-upgrade on Trusty - I constantly get an error from kmod / update-initramfs at http://paste.openstack.org/show/113213/ (at the bottom).  Any ideas?  I need to do this automatically and I've been consistently getting failures similar to this for weeks (probably since upgrading our infrastructure to Trusty)
[10:43] <queeq> Hello everyone. I need your help. After upgrading (do-release-upgrade) from Ubuntu server 12.04 to 14.04 I lost WiFi connectivity. I had custom 3.14 kernel which worked fine on 12.04. Currently wifi card (ath9k) works fine in monitor mode but it's impossible to run it with hostapd. Log says kernel: [   32.048770] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready. Tried latest 3.16 kernel - no difference.
[10:45] <queeq> Tried numerous solutions like changing ath9k module properties - nothing changed.
[10:47] <queeq> ip link shows the following: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
[10:47] <queeq> This "state DOWN" is impossible to change. Manual ifup wlan0 would lead to NO-CARRIER indication
[10:48] <queeq> rfkill shows no blocks
[10:52]  * ubunut has been trying find something useful for BobBall but can't.
[10:55] <cappe> what is wrong with this command? cappe@silver:~$ sudo debootstrap --variant=buildd --arch amd64 trusty /var/chroot/ http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.4/release/ubuntu-12.04.4-dvd-amd64.iso
[10:55] <bellow> I was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)
[10:56] <oina> hello
[10:56] <oina> is anyone here?
[10:56] <cappe> all of us
[10:56] <cfhowlett> oina, ask your ubuntu questions
[10:56] <queeq> Yep, but everybody just asking :)
[10:57] <oina> ok
[10:57] <oina> i need help with installing dependencies
[10:57] <cappe> I'm trying to get chroot working... in a howto found on google... the dude tells me to run a command like this: sudo debootstrap --variant=buildd --arch i386 lucid /var/chroot/ http://mirror.url.com/ubuntu/ <-- what mirror address shall I change to (living in Sweden)
[10:57] <oina> im trying to play warzone 2100
[10:59] <queeq> cappe: lucid must be the wrong version unless you are playing with very old system
[10:59] <cappe> yeah, ment trusty
[11:00] <cappe> i'm still confused about the mirror address
[11:00] <oina> so what do
[11:00] <luc4> Hello! Anyone who knows of a simple and quick way to switch between different ubuntu OS on the same computer remotely? Which means reboot and select in grub another partition?
[11:00] <queeq> cappe: according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors it's http://<country-code>.releases.ubuntu.com/
[11:01] <cfhowlett> oina, what is the output of terminal:  cat /etc/issue
[11:01] <queeq> luc4: instant dirty hack is to rename /boot/vmlinuz-... that you DO NOT WANT to boot and run update-grub
[11:02] <luc4> queeq: but isn't that simply making it fail to boot?
[11:03] <queeq> luc4: update-grub will show you which other kernels it found
[11:03] <luc4> queeq: ok, which is more or less the same as changing the default item to select in grub...
[11:03] <cappe> so I have tried issuing this command... cappe@silver:~$ sudo debootstrap --variant=buildd --arch amd64 trusty /var/chroot/ http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/trusty/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[11:04] <cappe> still it doesn't work
[11:04] <cappe> I: Retrieving Release
[11:04] <cappe> E: Failed getting release file http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/trusty/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso/dists/trusty/Release
[11:04] <queeq> luc4: I just don't remember how to select the default item...
[11:04] <luc4> queeq: I'm currently doing that. I was hoping for a better way.
[11:04] <luc4> queeq: I see it is possible to run a kernel from another, but I always encounter issues with that.
[11:05] <queeq> cappe: shouldn't it be just the domain, without full path?
[11:05] <queeq> luc4: well, you will need to reconfigure grub anyway
[11:05] <luc4> queeq: thanks then
[11:06] <cappe> don't know since... sudo debootstrap --variant=buildd --arch amd64 trusty /var/chroot/ http://se.releases.ubuntu.com
[11:06] <cappe> didn't work either
[11:06] <minimec> luc4: queeq: Modify 'Grub_Default' in /etc/default/grub, then sudo update-grub and reboot.
[11:07] <cappe> could it be something with this: E: Failed getting release file  ??
[11:08] <queeq> cappe: I guess it's due to incorrect path...
[11:08] <cappe> local or remote?
[11:08] <queeq> try  http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[11:09] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:09] <queeq> hi
[11:10] <ubunut> cappe: Try http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[11:12] <cappe> the program is trying to access http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/trusty/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso/dists/trusty/Release which doesn't excists?
[11:12] <anonymous_> hey
[11:13] <cappe> damn, got it working now
[11:13] <cappe> cheers!
[11:13] <Wryness> How can I disable encryption of my home directory without reinstalling or doing an rm -rf?
[11:13] <ubunut> np :)
[11:15] <cappe> maybe a program configuring jail for desktop and servers should be invented?

[11:20] <cappe> I'm following a guide online, telling me to install xhost, but I can't find it in apt-get ???
[11:21] <cappe> it's for my jajil
[11:22] <Eduard_Munteanu> Hi. Where can I get the Ubuntu CD signing key (fingerprint) securely?
[11:23] <cappe> nvm seems to work anyway
[11:24] <ubunut> cappe: xhost is in the x11-server-utils package
[11:24] <ubunut> too slow :)
[11:25] <k1l> Eduard_Munteanu: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/MD5SUMS
[11:26] <Eduard_Munteanu> k1l, I mean the GPG key, not the hashes. The idea is to check the SHA256SUMS which aren't available on the wiki.
[11:27] <Eduard_Munteanu> Besides that's not "securely".
[11:29] <cappe> ubunut: sudo apt-get install x11-server-utils doesn't exist?
[11:29] <ubunut> Eduard_Munteanu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto might have what you need.
[11:30] <rodrigograca31> Hi?
[11:30] <Eduard_Munteanu> rodrigograca31, hi
[11:31] <rodrigograca31> How do I send a "job" back to the foreground?
[11:31] <ubunut> cappe: sorry x11-xserver-utils
[11:31] <rodrigograca31> I used fg and now I want it to go back again without stoping it
[11:32] <Eduard_Munteanu> rodrigograca31, CTRL+Z, then 'bg' isn't enough?
[11:33] <levo> i need a software which i can put my daily tasks on it, prioritizing tasks, group them and so... planner didn't look good to me... do you know some other good choices?
[11:34] <Eduard_Munteanu> ubunut, hm, not sure if that page is protected and/or uptodate, and I don't have an account.
[11:34]  * Eduard_Munteanu wonders why it has to be so hard
[11:35] <cappe> inside the chroot environment.. this command doesn't seem to work very good... cappe@silver:~$ export DISPLAY=localhost:1
[11:35] <rodrigograca31> Eduard_Munteanu: CTRL + Z says "Stopped" and I don't want to stop ip...
[11:36] <Eduard_Munteanu> rodrigograca31, 'bg' will resume it in the background... or you'd like to avoid stopping it even temporarily?
[11:36] <pzn> using ubuntu 14.04, how can I set a specific window to not be "elegible" for alt-tab switches? dont want alt-tab to reach this specific window
[11:36] <cappe> got it working with export DISPLAY=0:0
[11:37] <cappe> nice to be a jailbird! :D
[11:37] <rodrigograca31> Oh, ok, that's it, I dont mind if it stops for 2 seconds...
[11:37] <rodrigograca31> Thanks Eduard_Munteanu
[11:37] <cappe> joing again from the chroot
[11:38] <cappe> back on track
[11:38] <Eduard_Munteanu> rodrigograca31, sure... you can use 'fg <job>' to place it back into foreground if you need to. Use 'jobs' to list available jobs.
[11:38] <cappe> In case you guys wanna be running programs inside a safe-pseudo-environment... check out this guide!! https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot
[11:45] <Eduard_Munteanu> Bleh, probably no way. Pretty stupid in 2014.
[11:45] <smart_developer> Does anyone know how to use rsyslog to set a max size on a log that is being written to?
[11:45] <k1l> Eduard_Munteanu: well, check the md5sum. i dont understand what you want to check other than that?
[11:46] <ikonia> smart_developer: you control that with log managment software
[11:46] <Eduard_Munteanu> k1l, I was looking to check the SHA256 or similar hash, being stronger security-wise.

[11:56] <ikonia> EiriksUbuntu: you don't use dd
[11:56] <ikonia> EiriksUbuntu: use clonezilla, and make the required manual changes
[11:57] <buitre> sfds
[11:59] <Eduard_Munteanu> ikonia, or partition, simply rsync your files and reinstall the bootloader.

[12:06] <stoogenmeyer> hey anybody here knows his stuff with regex?
[12:06] <ikonia> many people do
[12:06] <ikonia> why don't you just explain your problem
[12:06] <Eduard_Munteanu> stoogenmeyer, you can only find out by asking directly about your issue
[12:06] <stoogenmeyer> im trying to extract from this: <msg timestamp="20140919 14:50:46.809" level="INFO">Test teardown</msg>, just the text 'Test teardown'
[12:06] <cappe> what's the name of a basic texteditor (supposing you don't have vi) ??
[12:06] <stoogenmeyer> but can't get the right regex pattern for it
[12:07] <ikonia> stoogenmeyer: just grep it
[12:07] <ikonia> stoogenmeyer: or use cut or awk to field seperate
[12:07] <ikonia> cappe: nano ?
[12:08] <cappe> cool
[12:08] <cappe> i'm so used to vim
[12:08] <stoogenmeyer> i have a log that i grep for <msg> elements, which gives me several lines of that format, and i'd like to get the message alone fromt hat. i was looking into sed but i cant get the right regex pattern
[12:08] <Eduard_Munteanu> stoogenmeyer, you can use an xpath/xslt processor to extract stuff from XML in scripts if it's not very straightforward otherwise.
[12:08] <ikonia> stoogenmeyer: cut or awk for field seperation
[12:08] <Romance> free scots !
[12:09] <ikonia> Romance: please don't
[12:09] <ikonia> Romance: this channel is not interested
[12:09] <stoogenmeyer> but still, what would be the correct regex pattern
[12:09] <ikonia> stoogenmeyer: look at cut and the field seperate options or awk and column seperator
[12:10] <stoogenmeyer> Romance: there you go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej9B99P3lq0
[12:10] <Eduard_Munteanu> stoogenmeyer, consider   <msg[^>]*>\(.*\)</msg>
[12:11] <Eduard_Munteanu> stoogenmeyer, consider   <msg[^>]*>\(.*\)</msg>
[12:11] <Eduard_Munteanu> ikonia, what was that for?
[12:11] <Eduard_Munteanu> Oh.
[12:11] <Eduard_Munteanu> Nevermind.
[12:12] <cappe> I have updated the replist with deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main
[12:12] <cappe> and I still can't update xnest ??
[12:12] <cappe> E: Unable to locate package Xnest
[12:12] <ikonia> cappe: update ?
[12:12] <ikonia> cappe: it's in the UNIVERSE repo
[12:12] <cappe> done
[12:12] <ikonia> cappe: what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[12:13] <cappe> Trusty
[12:13] <cappe> Â14.04
[12:13] <ObrienDave> !info xnest
[12:13] <ikonia> cappe: so why have you added  http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main
[12:13] <ikonia> cappe: it should already be there
[12:13] <cappe> well it had a swedish mirror in it
[12:13] <ikonia> cappe: and I told you abour 5 minutes ago, it's in the universe repo, so why have you added another line without the universe repo
[12:14] <cappe> oh. sorry, could you please tell me what line that would be?
[12:14] <ikonia> cappe: get rid of that line, find the line with universe in it, and uncomment it
[12:20] <cappe> cool, nice, got it working. cheers!
[12:21] <slyboots_> Hm, anyone here running Enlightment over VNC
[12:22] <slyboots_> When I Start, I get "Enlightenemnt error" blah blah.. "your display server does not support Composit or ECore-X was built without XComposite support"
[12:22] <__zug__> I'm mirroring two monitors, my laptop being the "main computer". (the monitor I'm using though is my desktop monitor, a Samsung 20", I guess you can say it's the slave). When not mirroring, I love the higher resolutions I get on my desktop monitor, unfortunately it's not *mirrored* so I can't boot anything up on the screen (browser, terminal..etc..) . The most i can get is 1280 x 720 when mirrored, which sucks. Not mirror is like 1440 x 900, 
[12:22] <slyboots_> Anyone uh.. any idea how to enable XComposite support in vnc4server ?
[12:23] <cappe> Xnest tells me (EE) Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running(EE) ... what should be the next command?
[12:23] <cappe> that's inside of a chroot environment
[12:25] <cappe> so the error is this: Fatal server error:
[12:25] <cappe> (EE) Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running(EE)
[12:25] <cappe> when I try to run Xnest as root in chroot
[12:25] <erikk> I've got a question about our research server
[12:26] <erikk> If free -m shows a lot of ram being used when people are doing stuff and then it stays high even when they aren't, is that an issue?
[12:26] <erikk> Or is it just something to do with free -m
[12:26] <erikk> ?
[12:26] <erikk> Or does it mean that the server should reboot?
[12:28] <regex101-7420> echo "<msg time="123">Test teardown</msg>" | sed 's|[^>]*>(.*)<|&|'. This just outputs the whole input string
[12:28] <yeats> erikk: are you seeing performance issues when the RAM is high?
[12:29] <erikk> yeats: Not that I can tell. It is hard to tell. But the value on free -m is remaining approx constant (it is changing a bit) but should be changing more than it looks
[12:29] <erikk> yeats: I am not the server admin but was wondering if this would be a problem such that I should ask for someone to look into it
[12:30] <slyboots_> This is.. very fustrating
[12:30] <yeats> erikk: also - the system keeps objects cached in RAM for re-use, so "free RAM" isn't the only thing to watch
[12:30] <slyboots_> What is the nicest way to remote control a ubuntu box?  since VNC does not support the Composit extension (itseems)
[12:30] <slyboots_> What other options are there?
[12:31] <yeats> erikk: 'top' would give you a better view of what's free, cached, in swap, etc.
[12:31] <erikk> yeats: Thanks
[12:31] <yeats> erikk: I wouldn't assume there's a problem unless you start seeing performance drop or see OOM killer messages in the logs
[12:32] <yeats> erikk: OOM killer = the kernel starts killing things off when they don't have enough RAM to function
[12:33] <yeats> slyboots_: SSH?
[12:34] <slyboots_> yeats: Pretty sure tahts not graphical ;)
[12:34] <slyboots_> I was rather hoping to rn a vnc sever wth the Enlightenemnt WM, but its just not working
[12:35] <yeats> slyboots_: if you have an X server running locally, you can do 'ssh -X' and run graphical programs from the command line
[12:36] <yeats> slyboots_: is there a reason you need a full blown GUI to remotely adminster a linux box?
[12:36] <slyboots_> yeats: will that work if Im on like.. Windows, or a chorombook or something?
[12:36] <slyboots_> Its supposed to be a VDI,  Im on a chromebook and wanted a remote linux machine for more "full" desktop tasks
[12:36] <yeats> slyboots_: on Windows, yes, but you have to install X for windows
[12:36] <yeats> slyboots_: chromebook may Just Work™
[12:37]  * slyboots_ give it a try..
[12:38] <slyboots_> Error: Unable to open display
[12:38] <slyboots_> Thats on a chromebook
[12:39] <yeats> slyboots_: looks like it's hit and miss for X forwarding on Chromebook: http://superuser.com/questions/708811/can-i-use-a-chromebook-as-a-ssh-workstation
[12:40] <yeats> slyboots_: have you considered running ubuntu in a VM? (or dual booting for when you need to admin your box)?
[12:40] <AAmit> HI
[12:40] <slyboots_> yeats: well you cant really..like run vm's on a chromebook..
[12:41] <slyboots_> I have ubunut on a VM right now, its .. accessing and using it tahts the problem
[12:41] <yeats> slyboots_: I don't really know Chromebooks - I run Ubuntu exclusively
[12:41] <slyboots_> Yea well this is why I was looking at VNC
[12:41] <slyboots_> But because it doesnt spport compositing.. (although Im confused now if it does or not..)
[12:41] <yeats> slyboots_: depending on what you need to do, you might do better learning some command line skills
[12:42] <slyboots_> the WM I chose doesnt work
[12:42] <slyboots_> If I just wanted to run the cli I would ^^;
[12:42] <slyboots_> Its like Windows "Sure you can do everything via powershell..." but.. that's not exactly what yo wan to do at the end of the day
[12:43] <yeats> slyboots_: speak for yourself! (but point taken ;-))
[12:43] <cappe> I don't understand what Xnest is and what it does?
[12:43] <cappe> oh. now I know
[12:44] <cappe> is Xnest possible in chroot environment? :S
[12:45] <szsocial> soon
[12:45] <cappe> that's why it doesn't work :P
[12:46] <slyboots_> I think the trick is I just need a remote viewer application that supports Composite
[12:49] <renan> Is it correct to say that ondrej, Ondřej Surý, is the primary Debian PHP maintainer?
[12:49] <k1l> renan: well, ask the debian guys :)
[12:49] <renan> s/Debian/Ubuntu
[12:49] <renan> :P
[12:50] <ObrienDave> no substitute ;P
[12:50] <Skizu> Hey looking to make a UDS, is there a manual or something for this?
[12:51] <slyboots_> Or are their other options than vnc4server that *do* support Composite
[12:52] <only_the_bear> slyboots_: have you tried ssh -X from crosh?
[12:52] <slyboots_> Nah, I use uh.. secure shell
[12:53] <slyboots_> But to be honest, I dont want to run it as applications on the chromebook
[12:53] <slyboots_> Its supposed to acti as a psyudo-vdi solution, so Im going to want to be able to disconnect and keep the desktop and whatever I have going running
[12:53] <only_the_bear> you could tunnel Xnest through ssh if x forwarding to your chromebook works
[12:54] <slyboots_> if I use ssh -x that's not going to work is it?  as soon as I disconnect the applciations would close?
[12:54] <Skizu> Hey looking to make a UDS, is there a manual or something for this?
[12:55] <BluesKaj> Skizu, tell us what a uds is
[12:55] <Skizu> BluesKaj: unix domain socket
[12:56] <cfhowlett> UDS http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23436&highlight=Ugly+Drum+Smoker
[12:56]  * ubunut was thinking Ubuntu Developer Summit
[12:56]  * ikonia would like ubunut to stop doing /me commands please.
[12:57]  * Skizu wonders if anyone knows how to use the socket command
[12:58] <BluesKaj> Skizu, what does UDS have to do with Ubuntu ?
[12:59] <ikonia> nothing, it's pointless /me commands which is why I'd like them to stop
[12:59] <Skizu> I'm using ubuntu and trying to create a socket
[13:00] <BluesKaj> ikonia, ok, i'll stop asking :)
[13:04] <michel_> good afternoon
[13:05] <michel_> I need help
[13:05] <madlatvian> don't we all
[13:05] <michel_> I've just install Xubuntu and I have any ploblem with my graphic card
[13:06] <michel_> Only 10 FPS
[13:06] <Thumpxr> michel_: Which card? Latest XUbuntu? Which GPU driver?
[13:07] <michel_> ATI graphics 2.8ghz
[13:07] <madlatvian> yeah best to give us a dump of what your have tried
[13:10] <madlatvian> what drivers have you installed ?
[13:12] <michel_> before I was using windows XP and I was installing ATI catalyst driver
[13:12] <michel_> My computer is an compaq pentium4 2.8ghz
[13:13] <madlatvian> mate a there is no easy answer for you here
[13:13] <michel_> I have installing nothing drivers on Xubuntu because I dont know how to do
[13:14] <wangwei> #ruby
[13:14] <wangwei> join #ruby
[13:14] <madlatvian> yeah definitely a learning curve
[13:15] <k1l> michel_: which video card exactly? for old cards ati and nvidia drop support so you need to run the free drivers anyway.
[13:16] <michel_> Wait I 'm looking for ...
[13:16] <linux_unix-10> hi\
[13:17] <linux_unix-10> ubuntu won't display a res for my vga monitor beyond 640x480
[13:17] <k1l> linux_unix-10: which video card? what driver?
[13:17] <slyboots_> Fuck it, Im going to just spin up a windows server
[13:17] <slyboots_> Use RDP x.x I've been at this for a DAY and I've bairly got the damn thing even functional x.x
[13:17] <linux_unix-10> GPU: Nvidia GT630 Driver: nvidia-proprietary
[13:18] <michel_> ok
[13:19] <linux_unix-10> how can i make ubuntu detect all of my monitor's resolutions?
[13:19] <k1l> linux_unix-10: what does "lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use'  "  give you?
[13:19] <michel_> Just want install driver ATI radeon for Xubuntu ...
[13:19] <michel_> How to do?
[13:19] <k1l> michel_: which card?
[13:20] <linux_unix-10> i'll try, i'm running in windows 8.1 at the moment
[13:21] <michel_> My graphic card is intel radeon 9200
[13:21] <slyboots_> Sigh, I can do that either though
[13:21] <slyboots_> I supposeI could use.. xfce?
[13:22] <k1l> !paste | michel_ please put the output of "lspci" there.
[13:22] <slyboots_> There has to be a way of doing this, I cant believe that remote access on linux could be *this* bad o.o
[13:22] <michel_> ok  thanks Kllubottu
[13:22] <slyboots_> OK, If I want to access my ubuntu desktop remotly, via  GUI, what are my options
[13:23] <slyboots_> Other than VNC, which does not seem to support compositing and thus is a bit awful
[13:23] <trijntje> slyboots_: I use this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC?action=show&redirect=VNCOverSSH
[13:24] <trijntje> ah, no vnc, sorry
[13:24] <slyboots_> well I dont mind VNC. but since it does not *appear* to support the Composit extension no WM seems to work in it
[13:25] <slyboots_> trijntje: What is your WM that you use via that method? (Just to make sure I've not done something rather silly)
[13:25] <trijntje> slyboots_: lubuntu, so lxde I think
[13:26] <foo357> Hello, I would like to have every command I enter into the terminal to be remembered by the history function. Presently there seems to be a limit to how many commands it stores.
[13:26] <slyboots_> Hm, looks a lbt like xfce?
[13:26] <slyboots_> I was rather keen on trying enlightenment
[13:26] <slyboots_> But.. that looks like its just *not* going to work
[13:35] <Linux_unix-10> hi
[13:35] <Linux_unix-10> how can I make Ubuntu detect more resolutions beyond 640x480?
[13:39] <slyboots_> Right, XFCE works
[13:39] <slyboots_> Which is OK..
[13:39] <slyboots_> Still though x.x
[13:39] <Linux_unix-10> how to force Ubuntu to display at 1920x1080? Linux won't give a result above 640x480
[13:40] <MasterOfDisaster> Linux_unix-10: console or X?
[13:41] <huigegood>  
[13:42] <Linux_unix-10> MasterOfDisaster: X. Console being low-res is of no matter to me
[13:43] <balfour> Ok, so I added a line to xorg.conf that apparently X doesn't like. It boots into a black screen now. ctrl+alt+f1 does not drop me to shell, so I have no way of editing th file and removing the line. am I completely screwed?
[13:43] <balfour> also, shuft furing boot does not bring up a grub menu
[13:43] <fish_> hi
[13:43] <evil_dan2wik> Something just happened while I was watching youtube, I heard the bongo drum noise thing and the video stopped but the audio kept playing for about 10 seconds, It seems to be frozen now. what happened?
[13:43] <balfour> is there any other way of getting a login shell at boot ?
[13:43] <typ> livecd?
[13:44] <vitimiti> hi
[13:48] <fish_> I'm upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04 right now and I'm stuck setting up bonding. I used this config (actually it's a template, but so imaging real values where {{ }} is: https://gist.github.com/discordianfish/b2f14bc2bf4231586062 <- is there any reason that doesn't work like that? on boot it waits but can't bring up the bonding but the individual interfaces look healthy
[13:50] <fish_> one thing I realized is that I can't do ifup int because it says that interface doesn't exist
[13:50] <mehdi__> hey guys i installed my font in /usr/local/share/fonts and now my firefox doenst show anything how can i fix this issue?
[13:51] <fish_> but that might be expected..?
[13:51] <Linux_unix-10> is there a way to force display a resolution
[13:56] <michel_> hello how there is my graphic card :michel@Xubuntu:~$ lspci -nn | grep VGA

[14:00] <luc4> michel_: then why asking here in english?
[14:00] <MasterOfDisaster> Linux_unix-10: posting your Xorg.log would help, some data about the hardware in question, etc.

[14:22] <Mixx> hi all
[14:22] <Mixx> can anyone tell me how to kill rsyslogd
[14:22] <Mixx> it keep starting back up
[14:23] <digitsm> Hello
[14:23] <digitsm> I use xubuntu 14.04 and I usually use Ubuntu Software Center to install programs. How could I write comments in Ubuntu Software Center? It is impossible for me now
[14:24] <MasterOfDisaster> digitsm: come again?
[14:24] <MasterOfDisaster> Mixx: why would you? rsyslogd is supposed to run...
[14:25] <digitsm> MasterOfDisaster: I didn't understand your meaning
[14:25] <Mixx> well im running logger -t test "test" and nothing is going in messages
[14:25] <cfhowlett> !details | digitsm
[14:25] <Mixx> i think rsyslog is broken
[14:26] <MasterOfDisaster> Mixx: it's /var/log/syslog IIRC...
[14:26] <Mixx> i checked that also but nothing goes there either
[14:26] <digitsm> OK! I am new to Ubuntu Software Center. I can install apps with it by I can't write comments in it
[14:26] <digitsm> What should I do?
[14:27] <MasterOfDisaster> digitsm: what comments? What are you talking about?
[14:27] <calimero_82> hi guys, how can i print only odd pages? thanks
[14:27] <cfhowlett> calimero_82, printer properties, print pages 1, 3, 5, ...
[14:28] <calimero_82> hem... are 257 :)
[14:28] <calimero_82> there's an easy method?
[14:28] <digitsm> There is a link in each app's comment section named "Write your own review", but after pressing it, it pops a windows up saying "Signing in", but it can't sign in at all. It takes forever to sign in
[14:28] <ifireball> Mixx: depending on your configuration it might be that the facility and level of the message you're generating does no get directed to messages
[14:28] <digitsm> MasterOfDisaster: There are some social features in Ubuntu Software Center app
[14:28] <digitsm> e.g. rating
[14:28] <Mixx> i added *.*                                                     /var/log/syslog
[14:28] <Mixx>  
[14:28] <Mixx> to my syslog
[14:29] <Mixx> i mean rsyslog conf
[14:29] <digitsm> e.g. comments of others about a particular app
[14:29] <Mixx> but that made no difference :(
[14:29] <ifireball> Mixx: also I've seem rsyslog get congested, are you routing something massive through it like audit data?
[14:29] <digitsm> MasterOfDisaster, I can't write comments nor rating an app
[14:29] <Mixx> nothing at all
[14:29] <MasterOfDisaster> digitsm: aaaaah. I get it, but I can't help you with that, sorry.
[14:29] <digitsm> MasterOfDisaster, :))
[14:30] <ifireball> Mixx: are you routing anything to some unreliable destination like the network or a DB?
[14:30] <digitsm> MasterOfDisaster, I love these features of Ubuntu Software Center. It help us choose programs better. I want to be able to write comments to help others in their decision
[14:30] <Mixx> its on a default configuration
[14:31] <MasterOfDisaster> digitsm: yeah, I'm antisocial in that regard. That reminds me too much of the Google Play Store.
[14:31] <digitsm> :))
[14:31] <MasterOfDisaster> digitsm: I install my software with 'sudo apt-get install package'
[14:32] <digitsm> MasterOfDisaster, I know that way too. But I use Ubuntu Software Center to e.g. find which media player best fits my needs
[14:32] <ifireball> digitsm: I don;t have any machine with it installed here right now, so I can't refresh my memory, but there is a way to run it in debug mode in the foreground so you can see what is going on internally
[14:33] <FourFire> Hello, is there a simple GUI application which shows you network tree for Ubuntu/Mint ?
[14:33] <ifireball> Mixx: I don't have any machine with it installed here right now, so I can't refresh my memory, but there is a way to run it in debug mode in the foreground so you can see what is going on internally
[14:33] <digitsm> hmm
[14:33] <ifireball> digitsm: sorry I didn't mean you, I typed the wrong nick
[14:33] <FourFire> I just need something which will show what ip adresses are occupied on my subnet
[14:33] <digitsm> ifireball, Yeah I noticed it
[14:34] <ifireball> FourFire: nmap
[14:34] <Mixx> thats why i wanted to stop the service
[14:34] <uRock> FourFire, Zenmap
[14:34] <Mixx> so i could test that
[14:34] <FourFire> ok
[14:35] <__zug__> I'm trying to increase my screen resolution for my external, mirrored monitor. Right now, I'm stuck with 1280 x 720 when mirrored.
[14:35] <BluesKaj> iproute, seems to be the newest, replaces ifconfig etc
[14:36] <BluesKaj> FourFire, ip address show in the cli
[14:36] <Mixx> ok i loaded rsyslogd up but its just blank
[14:36] <Mixx> i tested logger and nothing is showing on the console
[14:36] <ifireball> Mixx: just make sure / or /var aren't full, I found myself debugging for hours in more then one occasion, before I finally ran 'df' to find the simple root cause...
[14:37] <Mixx> nothing full
[14:37] <FourFire> BluesKaj, what is cli?
[14:37] <BluesKaj> FourFire, terminal
[14:37] <uRock> FourFire, Zenmap is a GUI for namp
[14:37] <BluesKaj> cli = command line interface
[14:38] <FourFire> yeah I've used that, but I don't know which numbers are which so it's essentially useless to a noob like me
[14:38] <BluesKaj> FourFire, it will show which ip adresses are occupied on your subnet
[14:39] <ifireball> Mixx: well good luck, this is as far as I can go based on memory alone
[14:39] <Mixx> ok thanks
[14:40] <uRock> FourFire, Solar Winds may offer an app that can do what you want, but it won't be free and I am not sure if how well it will run in Linux.
[14:41] <__zug__> I'm trying to increase my screen resolution for my external, mirrored monitor. Right now, I'm stuck with 1280 x 720 when mirrored. Any ideas on how to do this?
[14:45] <sammy007> Why there is still no nodejs security update?

[14:55] <Skizu> So I'm looking to get apache 2.7.9 onto my ubuntu 14.04, the latest package seems to be 2.4.7, how do I go about doing this? I was forwarded here from #httpd
[14:56] <ifireball> Skizu: if its a one time thing, you can just d/l the tar.gz from the Apache websote and compile it
[14:56] <Skizu> ifireball: Define 1 time thing?
[14:57] <somsip> Skizu: you would need to find a PPA. See !PPA
[14:57] <ifireball> Skizu: you are doing this to test/dev something not as a production deployment strategy
[14:58] <Pici> sammy007: It looks like some of those don't even have patches in debian. Some do however, but since nodejs is in universe in Ubuntu, security updates are not guaranteed.  You may want to file bugs for each of those CVE as well. #ubuntu-motu and/or #ubuntu-bugs might be able to provide some more guidance on how to proceed.  (also see http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2014/CVE-2014-3744.html )
[14:58] <Pici> er, http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/pkg/nodejs.html rather
[14:58] <Skizu> ifireball: I mean, there is a bug with apache where I can't use UDS' for php-fpm
[15:02] <Pici> Skizu: do you know the ubuntu bug # for that?

[15:07] <Sputnikk23> can anyone tell me how to configure a member samba4 instance on ubuntu in such a way that I can robocopy files from a Windows connected fileserver and keep the permissions (they are joined to the same domain)?
[15:13] <Skizu> Does this not mean that I should be able to apt-get udpate apt-get upgrade and get apache 2.4.9? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/1324828
[15:13] <somsip> !info apache2
[15:14] <Skizu> somsip: So how would I go about finding out when it will have the fix?
[15:14] <Pici> Skizu: no, it means that it will be available in the next release of Ubuntu.  You might be able to find an (unsupported) PPA that includes it.
[15:15] <Skizu> Pici: I'd rather wait :)
[15:15] <somsip> Skizu: It states that this feature is not available in 2.4.7 which is the current version for trusty. It also states that 14.10 uses version 2.4.9. It seems like you need a PPA that will give you 2.4.8+ on Trusty, like I said a while back
[15:16] <digitsm> At last I found a better app than Ubuntu Software Center to integrate with Ubuntu One: App Grid

[15:22] <somsip> Guest35155: top will give you an ongoing summary
[15:22] <Guest35155> I can see CPU usage right now in resources on the system monitor but I can't see what is using it that way
[15:22] <Guest35155> top?
[15:22] <somsip> Guest35155: open a terminal and type 'top'
[15:23] <Guest35155> oh alright
[15:23] <Guest35155> hm apparently it's just root using most of that
[15:23] <Guest35155> it's weird, I can't even read videos properly
[15:23] <Guest35155> it's an old laptop but things were fine yesterday
[15:24] <truepurple> My system manager tells me cpu usage, though it doesn't quit fit, the number it gives
[15:24] <somsip> Guest35155: any changes since yesterday? Updates or new installs? Any hardware tests you can do, like memory or HD checks?
[15:24] <digitsm> App Grid is really wonderful. It provides an equivalent of Google Play for Ubuntu by combining a package manager with Ubuntu one comments and ratings
[15:25] <digitsm> :D
[15:25] <digitsm> I am happy
[15:26] <Guest35155> somsip no new install or updates, what kind of checks? like the "memory test" option in the grub menu?
[15:26] <asakapab0i> Alright back to the my problem..see we have this server that the fan is so loud. Any idea how to configure fan speed in ubuntu?
[15:26] <Xtreme> back.. what the hell?
[15:26] <derFiet> asakapab0i: shouldn't you do this in the bios?
[15:27] <Xtreme> what did i paste?
[15:27] <somsip> Guest35155: yes, but maybe one for later. When you run top is there anything using the HD a lot (next to "wa")
[15:27] <Xtreme> unopaste, gone crazyy
[15:27] <Xtreme> am i still muted?
[15:27] <derFiet> Xtreme: no, i can see you :)
[15:27] <Xtreme> :)
[15:27] <Xtreme> unopaste is crazy :)
[15:28] <Guest35155> somsip nope, wa is near 0
[15:28] <asakapab0i> derFiet: Last time we fixed it by rebooting the server but now it wont work.
[15:28] <somsip> Xtreme: it did something weird earlier so maybe it's ill. I mentioned it to an op.
[15:28] <Xtreme> :)
[15:28] <somsip> Guest35155: worth checking if it was thrashing for any reason.
[15:29] <Pici> somsip: looks like it was a lag issue... anyway, folks should probably avoid using enters as commas.
[15:29] <somsip> Pici: fair enough
[15:29] <Guest35155> somsip my GPU has two cores and root is using 50 to 60% of one of them, got nothing open except chat. how can I check for thrashing?
[15:30] <somsip> Guest35155: by looking at the wa figure on top, like you just said you did
[15:30] <Guest35155> somsip oh ok, it's close to 0. 30 us, 70 id and the rest is near 0
[15:31] <Sputnikk23> can anyone tell me how to configure a member samba4 instance on ubuntu in such a way that I can robocopy files from a Windows connected fileserver and keep the permissions (they are joined to the same domain)?
[15:31] <Xtreme> and freenode is back...
[15:32] <albert_> wow
[15:32] <albert_> it's the first time to be here.
[15:33] <somsip> Guest35155: I'd like to try to help more, but I need sleep. If you repost your problem maybe someone else casn help. Good luck
[15:33] <Guest35155> somsip thanks anyway
[15:33] <pilikeits> Hmmm. Im doing video editing with kdelive and now that window has been 10min grey. I didn't save the project. Can i do something to speed up the prosessing or? i think kdenlive crashed, maybe.
[15:36] <SchrodingersScat> albert_: have a question?
[15:37] <albert_> nope
[15:37] <albert_> I am curious about it
[15:38] <albert_> this web is not stable
[15:38] <albert_> I get off line sometimes
[15:38] <k1l> !netsplit | albert_
[15:39] <Sputnikk23> can anyone tell me how to configure a member samba4 instance on ubuntu in such a way that I can robocopy files from a Windows connected fileserver and keep the permissions (they are joined to the same domain)?
[15:40] <albert_> what is bumbar?
[15:41] <milios> anybody can recommend the best scanner for ubuntu 14
[15:41] <albert_> yeah
[15:41] <blackangelpr> milios, i have hp printer and they work no issues
[15:41] <Skizu> I just noticed that the default pool for php5-fpm doesn't work on 14.04 as it uses a socket
[15:42] <milios> thanks
[15:42] <kostkon> !scanner
[15:42] <kavya> join #nitk-ectf
[15:43] <aktarus> ciao a tutti
[15:43] <milios> thanks again
[15:43] <aktarus> !list
[15:44] <blackangelpr> milios, any issue let us know :)
[15:44] <stevie> Hi!
[15:45] <stevie> I just installed Ubuntu yesterday
[15:45] <kostkon> stevie, hi
[15:45] <blackangelpr> *Welcome*
[15:45] <aktarus> ciao
[15:45] <stevie> How is your computer going? Mines is so fast since I installed Ubuntu
[15:46] <aktarus> !list
[15:46] <SchrodingersScat> stevie: that's good to hear, this is a support channel though
[15:46] <pilikeits> hmm...can i adjust nice level or something to make kdenlive to work smoothier?
[15:46] <stevie> hi
[15:46] <SchrodingersScat> stevie: #ubuntu-offtopic is more for general chat
[15:49] <pbx> how do i get gnome terminal to see alt as meta instead of a menu shortcut?  (i hit alt-f to jump forward a word and get the file menu instead)
[15:56] <asakapab0i> ping
[15:57] <Xtreme> :( "Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA GPU at"
[15:57] <Xtreme> installed bumblebee just the way they said
[15:59] <__zug__> I'm having to press "e" and add "acpi_backlight=vendor" to the end of my linux line everytime I restart or shutdown. How do I make that permanent so I don't have to enter it in everytime?
[16:00] <__zug__> what I meant was at the boot menu, I'm having to press "e" and enter the command.
[16:00] <trism> __zug__: /etc/default/grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
[16:01] <__zug__> trism: Cool, I'll try that now. Thanks!
[16:05] <Xtreme> guys, i have a question. I might sound fucking stupid, but ...I have two nvidia packages in repo, 1: nvidia 319 and nvidia 331.. the thing which confuses me is both have version "331"
[16:05] <Xtreme> whats the difference?
[16:06] <__zug__> trism: So, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor"
[16:06] <__zug__> ugh, sorry
[16:06] <trism> __zug__: yep then: sudo update-grub;
[16:06] <k1l> Xtreme: please pastebin "dpkg -l |grep nvidia" and show the link here
[16:07] <Mike9863> How can I configure Unity's default multitouch features? For example, I'd like to make four finger swipe change workspaces rather than unhide the unity bar.
[16:07] <__zug__> trism: Ok, will do that now.
[16:07] <Xtreme> k1l,  http://apaste.info/h14
[16:08] <jrm2k6> hey, since i upgraded to 14.04, I cannot connect to the wifi (yes i have the right password) :) Any idea how to proceed? could be related to my wireless drivers maybe?
[16:08] <__zug__> ..now will reboot and see. Thanks for the help1
[16:09] <milios> what's best :mysql or maria?
[16:09] <Xtreme> k1l, should i run "sudo apt-get install nvidia-331-updates" or "sudo apt-get install nvidia-319-updates nvidia-settings-319-updates"
[16:09] <k1l> Xtreme: wait. what do you want to do at all?
[16:09] <Xtreme> this is what i am trying to understand.. dont want to try it and see coz messing up graphic will be nightmare..
[16:10] <Xtreme> k1l, i have hybrid graphics. so installing bumblebee
[16:10] <Xtreme> !bumblebee
[16:10] <Xtreme> this guy
[16:10] <k1l> Xtreme: on 14.04 the nvidia-319 package is symlink to the nvidia-331 package. and the nvidia-310 and nvidia 313 packages link to the 319 driver.
[16:11] <Xtreme> :) thanks
[16:11] <k1l> Xtreme: wait
[16:11] <k1l> !prime
[16:12] <Xtreme> :| armm.. i ran sudo apt-get install nvidia-331-updates .. should i stop? its still downloading
[16:12] <k1l> ....
[16:12] <k1l> bumblebee seems some kind of deprecated. nvidia-prime is the way to go iirc. and that is another setup
[16:13] <k1l> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics  <<---
[16:13] <dubfej> hi. my monitor has a shadow in the shape of a triangle at the bottom of the monitor. it's not there at bootup, it appears at some point after the desktop loads. sometimes half of the screen "shadows up" as well. any ideas what it could be?
[16:13] <dubfej> the shadows come and go randomly
[16:13] <Xtreme> k1l, checking :)
[16:14] <dubfej> it's as if the monitor is screwed, if it wasn't for the fact that it appears/disappears...
[16:14] <Xtreme> k1l, interesting.. and cool!
[16:14] <Xtreme> i will do one thing. i will let this update finish coz its same at both places.
[16:15] <Xtreme> then i will purge bumbebee and use price
[16:15] <reisio> dubfej: does it show up on a screenshot?
[16:17] <dubfej> dubfej, good question, brb
[16:18] <dubfej> reisio even ;) nope it doesn't show on a screenshot
[16:18] <reisio> dubfej: maybe your backlight/s are dying :/
[16:19] <dubfej> reisio, right... i guess that sounds plausible. could it be something like electrical interference from power cables etc?
[16:19] <reisio> dubfej: I don't think so
[16:19] <reisio> dubfej: you could ask #hardware, though
[16:19] <dubfej> gotcha, thanks
[16:19] <bcvery1> I'm using conky with i3wm, gett an JSON parse error "object key and value must be separated by a colon", as far as I can tell they all are: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8380863/
[16:20] <reisio> fluorescent bulbs lose parts of their lighting over time, I'm sure you've seen it
[16:20] <dubfej> reisio, yup, is it easily fixable or is it better to just chuck it and buy a new one?
[16:20] <reisio> even LEDs aren't infallible
[16:20] <reisio> it can be easily fixable
[16:21] <reisio> you can probably find the manual/instructions for opening up your screen
[16:21] <reisio> then you could visually confirm if it's the bulb
[16:21] <reisio> then you could price out a replacement
[16:21] <reisio> which might be affordable or might not
[16:21] <dubfej> ok cool. thanks reisio, you've been a great help
[16:21] <reisio> more at #hardware
[16:21] <kostkon> dubfej, or that shadow could be a burned-in/stucked pixels area. you could try the various fixes e.g. on youtube
[16:21] <dubfej> kostkon, the shadows go away
[16:22] <jrm2k6> hey guys, i cannot connect to a wifi network (even with correct password) and I suspect it could be an issue with my wireless board or something, as i just moved to the US
[16:22] <jrm2k6> frehs intall of 14.04
[16:22] <dubfej> dubfej, bit like a slightly dodgy light in a horror movie
[16:22] <kostkon> dubfej, yeah, it can happen
[16:22] <dubfej> damnit, i meant kostkon  :P
[16:22] <dubfej> oh really?
[16:23] <kostkon> dubfej, yes. but you could also try asking in #hardware as already suggested
[16:23] <jrm2k6> any idea what I should do? :(
[16:23] <dubfej> thanks, i will chase this up another time, have to go, thanks guys
[16:23] <dubfej> bye :)
[16:24] <Xtreme> k1l, i installed nvidia-prime
[16:24] <Xtreme> but i dont have it in my menu
[16:24] <chowder> jrm2k6, what have you tried so far?
[16:24] <tafa2> hi guys, ive got a script im trying to run on a remote server - it runs perfectly when i manually ssh in but when i try and run it remotely it's complaining about $TERM. Specifically "put: No value for $TERM and no -T specified" I've been trying to get around it for ages... Anyone have any ideas?
[16:25] <Xtreme> k1l, neither Nvidia x-server settings
[16:25] <reisio> tafa2: what's it for?
[16:25] <jrm2k6> chowder: modifying the region where I am located - /etc/default/crda with REGDOMAIN=US
[16:25] <tafa2> reisio: my script?
[16:25] <reisio> yeah
[16:26] <ghindo_> I keep updating my 14.04 server install to get a fix for that apt vuln but no updates are showing up--do I have to add the package manaually or something?
[16:26] <jrm2k6> chowder: also some of those http://askubuntu.com/questions/465848/frequent-deauthentication-from-wifi-reason-6-in-ubuntu-14-04
[16:26] <chowder> hmmm...and you moved from the US to where?
[16:26] <jrm2k6> i moved from europe to the US
[16:26] <jrm2k6> but the laptop was bought in Canada
[16:26] <reisio> jrm2k6: silly :)
[16:27] <jrm2k6> was working fine in Europe though
[16:27] <jrm2k6> reisio: :D
[16:27] <reisio> democracy works better there, too
[16:27] <tafa2> reisio: it logs in and configures a server on first boot
[16:27] <jrm2k6> reisio: got that right!
[16:28] <jrm2k6> i am kinda stuck now :(
[16:29] <reisio> tafa2: welcome to the internet: http://www.google.com/search?q=%22put%22%20%22no%20value%20for%20term%22
[16:30] <chowder> I'm not sure off the top of my head if europe has different standards for wifi. Usually wifi operates on the 2.4 and 5 ghz bands.
[16:34] <tafa2> reisio: i googled before coming here cmon
[16:38] <reisio> tafa2: hrmm?
[16:39] <reisio> chowder: metric wifi
[16:39] <jrm2k6> seems to be because of my wireless card
[16:44] <Han__> hi!
[16:45] <Han__> someone knows differences between desktop and server for a local network?
[16:45] <mn2010> Besides bundled applications, kernel and services. Nothing
[16:46] <Han__> in a small network is recommended the server option, or with desktop is enough?
[16:48] <frog> hi... how can i remount my sd-card rw? i get this error: mount: cannot remount block device /dev/sdb1 read-write, is write-protected
[16:48] <rww> Han__: do you want a graphical user interface on it?
[16:49] <reisio> frog: mount -o remount,rw /foo
[16:50] <Han__> is not necessary, but is more easy to work for the owner from the network
[16:51] <frog> reisio: this was, what i already tried: sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdb1
[16:52] <reisio> frog: and?
[16:53] <frog> @reisio as i wrote i got this error: mount: cannot remount block device /dev/sdb1 read-write, is write-protected
[16:53] <reisio> frog: does it have a hardware slider on it for write protection?
[16:55] <quantibility> why the FUQ does ubuntu have no control over the faqin volume? you lower it, and open a new video the fuqing thing gets so dam loud it hurts ears.. never had that problem with windows
[16:55] <LucasTT> if i install Java 8 with this http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html
[16:55] <frog> reisio: yes.. but i already double checked it
[16:55] <LucasTT> will it auto remove my jre 6?
[16:56] <reisio> frog: try flipping it then
[16:56] <LucasTT> or should i remove it before installing Java 8?
[16:57] <quantibility> like i should sue for my ears going deaf
[16:57] <jrm2k6> My issue seems to be pretty common http://askubuntu.com/questions/524088/is-this-a-bad-wireless-card
[16:57] <frog> reisio: doesnt change anything
[16:58] <reisio> frog: sounds like imperfect hardware
[16:58] <adrian1908> I have an odd problem. When compiling a simple C++ program and trying to execute it, I get "bash ./example: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error". I did chmod it, and I doubt that's the problem. Any ideas?
[16:58] <reisio> adrian1908: 'example' is probably a placeholder
[16:58] <reisio> adrian1908: not an extant file
[16:58] <jrm2k6> i thought ubuntu was becoming mainstream but I guess not. I didnt have any issues before but having to fight two days to have wifi, and still not having a solution is highly frustrating.
[16:59] <reisio> jrm2k6: oh you've tricked me into helping you with your threat of using Windows!
[16:59] <reisio> so clever
[16:59] <reisio> oh wait you haven't :p
[16:59] <adrian1908> reisio: I'm not sure I understand. I can chmod it and "file example" prints "example: ELF 64-bit LSB  relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped".
[17:00] <reisio> adrian1908: oh okay
[17:00] <trism> adrian1908: sounds like you created an object file and didn't link it, did you compile it with -c? you shouldn't need to chmod the actual binary once produced
[17:00] <reisio> how'd you chmod it?
[17:00] <jrm2k6> ahah
[17:00] <jrm2k6> no i dont want windows, i just want wifi!!
[17:00] <yitz_> Is there a way to specify a package name and use an apt/dpkg tool to map that back to which source/repo it's from?
[17:00] <reisio> jrm2k6: so get it
[17:00] <adrian1908> g++-4.9 -m64 -std=c++11 -c example.cpp -o example
[17:00] <adrian1908> maybe my gcc syntax is wrong?
[17:00] <jrm2k6> reisio: i have been trying since yeterday :) none of the "workarounds" found works
[17:01] <jrm2k6> work*
[17:01] <MonkeyDust> yitz_  apt-cache show [pkg] shows the source
[17:01] <trism> adrian1908: yes, -c just produces a .o file but then you told the compiler to rename it to example, drop the -c
[17:01] <raub> yitz_: if you installed it, you can get where ti came from
[17:01] <yitz_> Thanks MonkeyDust, raub
[17:01] <trism> adrian1908: or alternatively drop the -o example and then link the .o with a second command
[17:02] <adrian1908> reisio, trism: That's it guys, thanks! :)
[17:02] <yitz_> MonkeyDust: that has the package's homepage and the path to the deb file. No indication which repo it got pulled from
[17:03] <trism> yitz_: apt-cache policy packagename
[17:03] <yitz_> Sweet. Thanks a ton, trism
[17:04] <MonkeyDust> yes, it's policy, not show
[17:05] <skippezot> anybody knows something bout midori???
[17:06] <MonkeyDust> skippezot  ask to find out
[17:06] <reisio> skippezot: little too sweet for my taste
[17:06] <reisio> but you're supposed to mix it with something
[17:07] <skippezot> whenever i do a search with google pics and cick a link I go to http://www.google.com/false
[17:07] <reisio> skippezot: what version of midori?
[17:07] <skippezot> 0.5.8
[17:08] <reisio> mmm
[17:08] <reisio> it's always not known how to parse google's terrible markup, IME
[17:08] <reisio> try something else
[17:08] <reisio> like duckduckgo.com :)
[17:09] <skippezot> can do that for now
[17:09] <skippezot> but stil would like to see it resolved
[17:09] <reisio> don't see that happening, it's been like that for years
[17:10] <skippezot> i get no answer on midori channel
[17:10] <skippezot> is there a forum for midori?
[17:11] <reisio> skippezot: this is kind of my point
[17:11] <reisio> they don't know or don't care or both
[17:11] <reisio> it's not going to get fixed
[17:11] <MonkeyDust> skippezot  just tried it, midori works fine here, shows pics while i'm still typing
[17:11] <skippezot> strange I kinda like the browser though
[17:12] <tomasm-> hi, i just installed xubuntu 14.04, on a new hp laptop (3 gigs ram, dual amd cpu) and it is SNAIL SLOW.... I go to the logout menu/button and it takes forever to actually prompt me, potentially several minutes... any idea what could be causing this? i dunno if it's xfce or ubuntu as a whole or my graphic driver or what
[17:12] <skippezot> yeah but if click it it what happens?
[17:12] <skippezot> I also see the pics but can not go to the page itself
[17:12] <reisio> tomasm-: wrong graphics driver maybe
[17:13] <charta> hello, did anybody set up ctdb under ubuntu 14.04LTS ?
[17:13] <reisio> charta: probably someone has
[17:13] <tomasm-> reisio, how do i figure that out?
[17:14] <charta> looks like ubuntu ctdb port doesn't work correctly with nfs
[17:14] <charta> if anybody has experience setting that up, I would like to discuss
[17:14] <reisio> IME little works with nfs :)
[17:15] <MonkeyDust> what's IME ?
[17:16] <squinty> in my estimation
[17:16] <reisio> in my experience
[17:17] <squinty> tomasm-:  check in Additional Drivers to start.
[17:18] <skippezot> reisio thanks I'm out
[17:19] <frog> hi... how can i remount my sd-card rw?
[17:19] <frog> on entering of: "sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdb1"
[17:19] <frog> then i get this error: "mount: cannot remount block device /dev/sdb1 read-write, is write-protected"
[17:20] <gyre007> guys, is there any way how I can find out from the sys/proc what bridge interface is a particular network interface "slave" of ?
[17:22] <yitz_> Woot. Got dwm working again. Thanks!
[17:22] <squinty> frog:  maybe checking it with Disks will give you some information
[17:23] <Mupi> hi
[17:23] <reisio> hi Mupi
[17:23] <reisio> what is oscillating?
[17:24] <Mupi> can anyone tell me how to create hotspot through ubuntu for windows phone?
[17:24] <reisio> Mupi: a hot spot is a hot spot
[17:25] <Mupi> that i know
[17:25] <k1l> Mupi: the ubuntu is connected with lan cable?
[17:25] <Mupi> no, usb internet
[17:26] <k1l> ok, so you want to connect the windows phone with usb to the ubuntu pc and tether?
[17:27] <Mupi> no, i want to create wifi network through my laptop i.e. use my laptop as wifi router
[17:27] <Mupi> using ubuntu
[17:27] <reisio> then the OS on the phone is irrelevant
[17:28] <k1l> Mupi: just use the network-manager. easy as that
[17:28] <k1l> Mupi: http://askubuntu.com/questions/60980/how-to-share-a-wired-internet-connection-via-wifi
[17:29] <Mupi> thnx but that is for wired connection
[17:29] <k1l> nope
[17:29] <Mupi> and i am using wireless internet
[17:30] <k1l> Mupi: stop
[17:30] <k1l> Mupi: you said you use "usb internet" on that ubuntu pc
[17:31] <Mupi> yes
[17:31] <k1l> Mupi: you cant recieve internet on wifi on ubuntu pc and make a hotspot on wifi on the same time
[17:31] <Mupi> but windows allows that
[17:31] <lunaphyte_> hi.  given this: http://dpaste.com/1VQ84NW.txt - is apt-get dist-upgrade really to correct way to install the held back packages?
[17:32] <rmdir> lol
[17:32] <rmdir> quit
[17:32] <k1l> Mupi: where is the "usb internet"?
[17:32] <k1l> lunaphyte_: yes
[17:33] <Mupi> where?
[17:33] <lunaphyte_> k1l: ok, thank you
 no, usb internet     << where is the usb connection?
[17:34] <k1l> internet to ubuntu pc? or ubuntu pc to mobile?
[17:34] <Mupi> it is a mobile internet
[17:34] <Mupi> connected through usb dongle
[17:34] <k1l> Mupi: ok, so did you actually try the solution i linked you?
[17:34] <Xtreme> hey k1l got prime working. you got to see this :) 1 sec
[17:34] <Mupi> yes

[17:58] <frog> i somehow can't get any sd card rw on my system... doesn't matter, if i connect my camera with an sd card in t, or an card reader with a sd card in it
[17:58] <frog> any ideas?
[18:00] <SchrodingersScat> that's weird, does it have that write protect tab on the side?  did I just invent that in my head?
[18:02] <frog> SchrodingersScat: yes, they have such a thing, but i double checked that on all my various sd cards, but none works
[18:02] <dmitry-rasputin> question guys.  I installed cairodock and wine now my computer will not respond when I click shutdown, it never pops up the shutdown gui and empathy also never pops up when I click on it
[18:06] <frog> i somehow can't get any sd card rw on my system... doesn't matter, if i connect my camera with an sd card in t, or an card reader with a sd card in it. no ideas?
[18:06] <amaya90> sex
[18:06] <renzo> frog:
[18:06] <frog> yes?
[18:06] <SchrodingersScat> stumps me, I would try to see what dmesg says when putting it in, maybe gnome-disks, gparted, etc. but i'm not good at this
[18:09] <frog> t always says protect is on, also when the hardware switch is really turned on/off
[18:20] <Planchet> Hi guys - trying to get /home/username/public_html to serve on a user I've just added. I used the same the same procedure as for earlier successful attemps but I get a permissions error - could someone help me troubleshoot this?
[18:21] <gregtom6> hy all
[18:21] <reisio> hy
[18:21] <gregtom6> how can I use the serial ports with Ubuntu?
[18:22] <gregtom6> I have plugged a bluetooth adapter into the PC and I want to send a string throught serial port
[18:26] <parser_> hi, is gnome stable on ubuntu?
[18:27] <rww> yes
[18:27] <SpaghettiCat> parser_:  what is gnome specifically?
[18:27] <parser_> SpaghettiCat: a ui manger?
[18:28] <reisio> SpaghettiCat: a desktop environment, everything you see together
[18:28] <SpaghettiCat> reisio:  I never knew GNOME was a DE. Unity is a DE
[18:28] <reisio> Unity is a DE
[18:28] <reisio> it's about 98% GNOME
[18:28] <reisio> different window manager, different configuration of the front-end
[18:29] <SpaghettiCat> oh right
[18:31] <Jeeves_Moss> I'm getting a 404 on raring, what's hte next release for the ARM CPU?
[18:31] <SpaghettiCat> Jeeves_Moss:  what is raring?
[18:31] <rww> ...
[18:31] <OerHeks> Jeeves_Moss, one digit more > 14.04
[18:32] <Jeeves_Moss> OerHeks, deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ raring main universe multiverse
[18:32] <OerHeks> Jeeves_Moss, what do you want me to do with that?
[18:32] <Jeeves_Moss> nm, figured it out
[18:33] <gregtom6> somebody?
[18:33] <gregtom6> anybody?
[18:33] <SpaghettiCat> Jeeves_Moss:  you ask a question in hope that someone will help you, but when I ask you a question you do not wish to help?
[18:33] <Jeeves_Moss> well, I'm trying to upgrade this beaglebone
[18:33] <OerHeks> gregtom6, maybe this page is any help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialConsoleHowto
[18:35] <Chacusie> hello
[18:36] <parser_> what to choose except unity? gnome kde xfce is there anything else ?
[18:36] <SchrodingersScat> lxde is an option, lubuntu
[18:37] <SpaghettiCat> parser_:  you could go without a desktop environment altogether. Pick a window manager like AwesomeWM or Xmonad
[18:37] <OerHeks> ... or mate cinnamon openbox, lots of choise
[18:38] <henry_> Has anyone passed an $array to bootstrap-datepicker for bootstrap-datepicker's input?
[18:38] <gregtom6> 0erHeks: I'm very beginner in Ubuntu
[18:38] <gregtom6> OerHeks: ^
[18:38] <gregtom6> OerHeks: I don't really know what this do or what this isn't do
[18:39] <Planchet> Anyone able to help with permissions on /home/user/public_html?
[18:40] <OerHeks> gregtom6, me too, what do you want to deo exactly?
[18:40] <kubuntu> rg
[18:40] <gregtom6> OerHeks: I have two bluetooth adapters and I want to accept on one of them the serial communication
[18:41] <gregtom6> OerHeks: and the other one should send something on another serial communication
[18:41] <gregtom6> OerHeks: (on another port)
[18:41] <SpaghettiCat> Planchet:  don't ask to ask, just ask the question
[18:41] <gregtom6> OerHeks: that would be all, but it seems to be a plane exam for a person who not knows Ubuntu or Linux world
[18:42] <Linnak> Hi Guys, There was a remastersys for Ubuntu 12.xxx. Now how can I make a Live USB with all the applications and setting that I want on it? Is it a GUI or I need to know the commands for that?
[18:44] <sudormrf> has anyone in here used this successfully in ubuntu? http://www.asus.com/us/Networking/USBAC56/
[18:44] <OerHeks> gregtom6, It should be possible using the serial profile. Install all the Bluez tools, such as Blueman. Then it is a matter of discovering the other computer (pairing) and go from there.
[18:45] <OerHeks> gregtom6, never tried myself
[18:45] <gregtom6> OerHeks: the other devices won't be computers
[18:46] <OerHeks> gregtom6,yhou said you have 2 BT adapters ... tell us more please, you are confusing
[18:48] <gregtom6> OerHeks: I need to pair with one of the bluetooth adapter to a bluetooth module connected to a robot and I need to pair with the other bluetooth adapter to the other robot
[18:48] <gregtom6> OerHeks: after that I get datas from one robot and send messages to the other robot from this PC
[18:49] <gregtom6> the communication are done with serial ports
[18:49] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  so what do you want from us? what problem are you facing?
[18:50] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: how to use bluetooth in ubuntu? I'm not familiar with ubuntu really
[18:50] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: how to get communication from a serial port?
[18:50] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  Install "bluez". Then google for a "bluetooth ubuntu tutorial" to pair and setup your bluetooth stuff
[18:51] <Planchet> Need some help with userpermissions for /home/username/public_html - I followed the same method that worked for 5 previous users and am getting a permissions errror
[18:51] <SpaghettiCat> Planchet:  just ask your real question
[18:51] <Planchet> How do I troubleshoot it
[18:52] <Linnak> Can I make custom LIVE USB with a GUI?
[18:52] <Planchet> If I knew what was wrong I would knoe how to fixc it ;)
[18:52] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: I wanted to get a simple string from an other device (for now it would be an android phone)
[18:52] <gregtom6> but I don't know what serial port has the bluetooth adapter
[18:53] <SpaghettiCat> Planchet:  so you don't know what the problem is? so how do you know there's a problem?
[18:53] <OerHeks> Linnak, no, it is all manually https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[18:54] <Planchet> SpaghettiCat: I do know what the problem is - its a permissions thing what the cause of it is is unknown
[18:54] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  I'm not sure that bluetooth communication is serial. Are you sure it is?
[18:54] <Planchet> though it could be a vhosts thing
[18:54] <SpaghettiCat> Planchet:  if there's no problem; there's nothing to fix. So i'm not sure why you're here
[18:55] <Planchet> spaghetticat, you are being obtuse.
[18:55] <Planchet> I told you what the problem is: I get a permissions error when trying to serve /home/username/public_html
[18:55] <SpaghettiCat> This is a support channel. If you don't have a problem or you're not solving other people's problem there's nothing for you here.
[18:55] <Linnak> OerHeks: Thank you
[18:55] <Planchet> Spaghetticat, do check yourself
[18:56] <Planchet> I am explaining the best I know how what the problem is
[18:56] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: I'm totally sure
[18:56] <SpaghettiCat> Planchet:  would be useful to have the full error message
[18:56] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: I used serial communication with bluetooth adapters before on Windows, but windows fucked me
[18:57] <SchrodingersScat> Planchet: purposefully obtuse though, to illustrate that if you're treating us on a 'need-to-know' basis and also telling us what we need to know, then we're at a stop
[18:57] <BluesKaj> gregtom6, language please
[18:57] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  I'm not sure how to do that. If no one here, then the people in #bluez-users could help you
[18:57] <gregtom6> BluesKaj: sorry
[18:58] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: and blueman simply doesn't start...
[18:58] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  run it from console and post the error message
[18:59] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: and how to run that from console? :)
[18:59] <Planchet> You don't have permission to access / on this server. / AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /home/ipt/public_html/ - though it seems to be pointing at the wrong place - it should be /home/shd/public.html
[18:59] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  that's very basic. google "introduction linux terminal"
[18:59] <xmodr> Hi, I have connected an external montior via VGA to my 14.04 laptop. I had to set the resolution for the external montior using xrandr manually as it wouldn't detect it. Once I set the montiro to the correct resolution I have a large 3 inch black vertical bar at the left side of the monitor. Its like the display only starts 4 inches from the left size. Anybody any tips or hints on how to resolve this?
[19:00] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: can't you just tell me?
[19:00] <mchang_> i installed ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I had trouble to ping .local doman.  I searched this problem online and it looks like related to avahi-daemon. I tried anyway i can to disable it but no success.  I still could not ping .local.  Does anyone in this room have any idea?
[19:00] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  do you know how often people ask how to do this? teach a man to fish...
[19:00] <daftykins> xmodr: hit the auto button to sync the image?
[19:01] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: I have wrote blueman into the console, and nothing happens
[19:01] <BluesKaj> gregtom6, open the terminal, type blueman
[19:01] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: I tried to use sudo blueman, but nothing
[19:01] <gregtom6> so what?
[19:01] <xmodr> daftykins: I have done the auto-adjustment on the montitor itself. Is there an auto sync within Ubuntu?
[19:01] <gregtom6> it says: command not found
[19:01] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  does it return to the prompt? i.e. you can type in the next command? Or does it hang?
[19:01] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: just command not found
[19:01] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  well, sir, you need to install the program before you can use it.
[19:02] <gregtom6> SpaghettiCat: don't you think it is installed?
[19:02] <daftykins> xmodr: no, no extra stage. not unless you've not positioned the monitors beside one another correctly (for multi monitor use)
[19:02] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  that's not for me to know; it's your machine
[19:02] <daftykins> xmodr: are you sure you didn't need to just fully boot from powered off with this display attached, for it to be set correctly?
[19:02] <BluesKaj> it should have launched or given errors why it didn't, gregtom6
[19:04] <BluesKaj> gregtom6, command not found means it's not installed or you are trying to open the wrong application
[19:04] <xmodr> daftykins: this is a multimonitor setup. I will try a reboot like that - I need to remember how to save xrandr settings first :)
[19:04] <daftykins> xmodr: well you will already be overriding the settings via your method
[19:04] <apoplexy> hello there :3 if you're into internet marketing, affiliate marketing, SEO, programming, etc there's an internet marketing community channel that was just made. if you're genuinely interested in the topic or are looking to have your skills outsourced feel free to pm me for the channel name or whois me, it's pretty common sense via whois :3
[19:04] <daftykins> xmodr: unless you're just running them after boot?
[19:05] <xmodr> daftykins: yep, after boot
[19:05] <SchrodingersScat> apoplexy: spam is off-topic on freenode
[19:05] <apoplexy> is that not allowed?
[19:05] <SpaghettiCat> apoplexy:  to spam?
[19:05] <daftykins> apoplexy: no. never has and never will be
[19:05] <apoplexy> im not direct linking?
[19:05] <apoplexy> hmm
[19:05] <SchrodingersScat> apoplexy: this is for ubuntu support
[19:05] <apoplexy> ah ok
[19:05] <apoplexy> my mistake
[19:05] <SpaghettiCat> what a polite spammer :3
[19:06] <apoplexy> well im not a mean guy, trying to build a beneficial community in my fav network :3 its just hard to populate because the searches are so competitive
[19:06] <apoplexy> sorry doe :3
[19:07] <reisio> he's spamming all over
[19:07] <daftykins> apoplexy: leave now please
[19:07] <daftykins> reisio: has it been reported?
[19:07] <apoplexy> well i did 2 channels in 2seconds rofl
[19:07] <apoplexy> then i was informed it wasnt allowed
[19:07] <tony__> can anyone point me to a faq on how to fix screen tearing?
[19:07] <apoplexy> allover is kind of a stretch
[19:08] <daftykins> apoplexy: do not talk about this anymore, leave now please.
[19:08] <reisio> daftykins: not by me
[19:08] <reisio> bit pointless to deal with spam manually
[19:08] <reisio> the server should be able to detect (near/)simultaneous messages in multiple channels
[19:09] <daftykins> off topic.
[19:09] <gregtom6> BluesKaj: that's weird, because it is already installed...
[19:10] <gregtom6> BluesKaj: blueman is already the newest version...
[19:10] <gregtom6> BluesKaj: but if I enter that into the terminal, it still can't find the command
[19:10] <gregtom6> so what?
[19:10] <degva_> Hello
[19:10] <degva_> I have a problem with my hard drive
[19:10] <BluesKaj> gregtom6, then try dbus-launch blueman
[19:11] <gregtom6> BluesKaj: it says no such file or directory
[19:11] <degva_> I think is because a couple days ago it fell it to the floor
[19:11] <daftykins> degva_: please ask a complete question on one line
[19:11] <degva_> anyway, Linux cannot mount it
[19:11] <degva_> Oh D:
[19:12] <daftykins> degva_: sounds like you could do with checking that disks SMART status, do you have it plugged into an ubuntu computer right now?
[19:12] <degva_> Linux cannot mount a hard drive, it has some badblocks. Can I do something like a formatting? or it has become a piece of plastic?
[19:12] <degva_> I have it mounted, it is running: sudo badblocks -v -b 4096 /dev/sdc1
[19:12] <BluesKaj> gregtom6, or alt +F2, blueman in the run command
[19:13] <daftykins> degva_: well you probably can't run what i would suggest to run at the same time, but you can try - install the packages smartmontools and pastebinit then run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdc | pastebinit" and share the link here
[19:14] <degva_> ok, give me a minute
[19:14] <qwerkus> Can anyone help me out setting up a simple samba share ? WINS  server is ubuntu 14.04 running smbd. I shared a folder set to nogroup, but can't access it with windows 7. Share shows up, but when I click it, I get access denied.
[19:14] <daftykins> qwerkus: password auth? did you create a samba password for the user?
 no, the share is supposed to be guest only
[19:15] <gregtom6> BluesKaj: it is appeared, clicked on the icon of this and nothing appeared...
[19:15] <daftykins> qwerkus: hmm, did you restart smbd after specifying that share?
[19:15] <daftykins> qwerkus: also confirm your config formatting is correct with 'testparm'
[19:15] <gregtom6> I'm an unhappy starter ubuntu user now
[19:16] <SpaghettiCat> gregtom6:  if you google for a "bluetooth  ubuntu tutorial" I bet you will find all the info you need to connect your device
 yes. http://paste.ubuntu.com/8381918/
[19:16] <degva_> daftykins: here you go: http://pastebin.com/3GTsd6Uk
[19:16] <Planchet> SpaghettiCat: Telling people to "RTFM" or to "just google it" is not very polite. Ideally, you should find them a link, or at least give them some directions to documentation they can use. Please use official Ubuntu documentation (help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com) wherever possible. Try to avoid outdated resources, such as from previous releases, or possibly wrong information such as for
[19:16] <Planchet> other distributions. While we encourage everyone to offer Ubuntu support to other users, the channel operators will try to ensure that the advice given is sound and safe, and they will use their best judgement to ensure that the channel as a whole follows the recommendations of developers, official support staff and ultimately the Ubuntu Technical Board. Please also read the more comprehensive
[19:16] <Planchet> guide for supporters.
[19:17] <Planchet> :D
[19:17] <SpaghettiCat> I even gave the search terms to google, how is that impolite?
[19:17] <reisio> SpaghettiCat: it isn't
[19:17] <SpaghettiCat> I can help him once and he'll learn little. Or I can teach him to help himself and he can help himself every time by himself from now on
[19:17] <Planchet> If you have to ask why you come across as obtuse, you should spend some time in self reflection
[19:18] <daftykins> degva_: there are 48 'current pending sector' - your badblocks process might make it workable, otherwise i would attempt to mount using a different superblock, backup the data, then zero fill the disk to restore it to working order
[19:18] <reisio> lot of lecture for someone who... helped even less?
[19:18] <SpaghettiCat> I reflected, but I cannot find the answer. I hope that the people who call me obtuse would tell me why in clear language
 awseome line. Gonna reused it :)
[19:18] <reisio> SpaghettiCat: 'cause look how wide of an angle you are! :p
[19:19] <degva_> daftykins: then I should let the badblocks finish, right?
[19:19] <SpaghettiCat> hoho!
[19:19] <daftykins> degva_: yeah, although i don't think it's going to help you
[19:19] <SpaghettiCat> Sorry for trying to help you, I guess...
[19:20] <degva_> Ok, I'll let it finish. If it doesn't work at all, how can I mount it so I can get the data?
[19:20] <degva_> daftykins: just using the regular mount?
[19:20] <daftykins> qwerkus: hmm it doesn't look too bad, though i don't like the _ or the capital 'S' in the share path. what do logs say on the server end when you try to connect from your client PC?
[19:20] <daftykins> degva_: one sec i'll see if i can find the guide
[19:21] <daftykins> degva_: out of interest, had attempts to mount via command line actually given you an error?
[19:21] <degva_> daftykins: thank you
[19:21] <Guest13877> Hello
[19:21] <reisio> 'lo guest
[19:21] <degva_> daftykins: nope, I haven't tried via command line.
[19:22] <reisio> SpaghettiCat: don't worry about it, it's not as if it's his own sentiment anyways
[19:22] <reisio> he just read the rules of the channel and wants to be an op one day or something
[19:22] <Guest13877> Hello norm
[19:22] <reisio> :)
[19:23] <daftykins> degva_: ah, ok once badblocks finishes, try a manual mount and share the output (if any errors are displayed) or the output of "dmesg | tail" with someone in here to see if they can assist further. i'm afraid i'll be off shortly :)
[19:23] <daftykins> Guest13877: do you have a support question? that is the purpose of this channel. you may chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:24] <intrader> Anyone, I am on ubuntu 14.04, have backed using the provided backup utility named Backups, the backups are in a 32GB drive that shows when mounted as /media/intrader/3729-B90D/Backup. How do i look in Backup what files are stored there?
 can't find anything in the log file
[19:24] <crypto_guy> hi, how i can "cp file /x/y/z/", but i don't know if /x/ or /x/y/ or /x/y/z/ is exist
[19:24] <qwerkus> which one should be relevant here ?
[19:24] <reisio> crypto_guy: pardon?
[19:24] <degva_> daftykins: Thank you, you have helped me a lot actually :)
[19:24] <daftykins> qwerkus: there would definitely be some output of the client's test connect, so you might need to find the right file
[19:24] <reisio> crypto_guy: you can mkdir -p the dir path first
[19:25] <daftykins> qwerkus: i'm afraid i can't remember off hand
[19:25] <degva_> daftykins: This is the file of the "dmesg | tail" http://pastebin.com/RUbF6gMV just after the error I've got via GUI.
[19:25] <crypto_guy> reisio: thanks
 one logfile says I should be using winbind ?
[19:26] <daftykins> degva_: hmm ok, not hugely conclusive for the time being. once badblocks is done i'd do a typical manual mount via "sudo mkdir /mnt/test && sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/test" (if it's ext4) and report back with errors :)
[19:28] <degva_> daftykins: Great, I'll do that once badblocks finishes. Thank you! :)
[19:28] <daftykins> good luck!
[19:29] <qwerkus> it can't be THAT difficult to set up a simple share, can it ?
[19:29] <SpaghettiCat> qwerkus:  is it easier on windows?
[19:29] <daftykins> qwerkus: nope, i think you've already gone way further than i would have. i tend to jump into the .conf, add a simple share and a password to the user then it's available within seconds
[19:29] <daftykins> haha SpaghettiCat raises a fair point
[19:31] <qwerkus> dunno, never tried to share anything under windows. Isn't it against the whole point of running windows ? No, when I mean "that complicate", it's in comparison with a simple nfs share. Took me 2mins, and works like a charm.
[19:31] <mchang> I had trouble to ping .local domain with ubuntu 14.04 LTS.  Does anyone have any idea?
[19:32] <Jordan_U> mchang: Is the domain in /etc/hosts? Is the domain in the DNS server your machine is configured to use?
[19:33] <mchang> Jordan_U: the domain is not in /etc/hosts
 let's go for an auth version. What command do you use to set a user and pw for a folder ?
[19:33] <daftykins> qwerkus: "sudo smbpasswd -a username" <-- create a password for 'username' which is the user existing on the system already, not one you make up)
 how about a user not existing on the system ? Can't samba manage it's own users ?
[19:35] <daftykins> qwerkus: don't know.
[19:35] <daftykins> qwerkus: if you're going to start applying those users to file system permissions, they need to exist :)
[19:35] <mchang> Jordan_U: i need to access a remote server with .local in its name.  for example, www.foo.local
[19:38] <Jordan_U> mchang: I asked two questions. You've only answered one.
[19:38] <mchang> Jordan_U: I don't quite understand your second question :)
[19:39] <Jordan_U> mchang: Next time please say so rather than just not answering it.
[19:39] <arkapravo> Hello Ubuntu-ers
[19:40] <maheanuu> Just finished partitioning and formatting a 500gig external 2.5 in sata drive now when I try to open it it tells me that I am not the owner and do not have permission to open it???
[19:40] <daftykins> greetings arkapravo - ask away if you have a question
[19:40] <daftykins> maheanuu: perhaps you did so with sudo and so your user has no rights :)
[19:40] <mchang> Jordan_U: sorry for that.  bascially I need to access www.foo.local and I can access it with my macbook but it does not work from my ubuntu
[19:40] <Jordan_U> mchang: By default Ubuntu is configured to resolve hostnames via two sources only, /etc/hosts, and DNS, (Domain Name Server resolution). Windows by default additionally resolves netbios names, so I'm thinking that's what you're wanting Ubuntu to do as well.
[19:40] <daftykins> maheanuu: where did you mount it to? what path?
[19:41] <maheanuu> How do I corect this and yes  did use sudo
[19:41] <arkapravo> well ! daftykins this is my fist time on irc ..... just installed Irssi .... so giving it a shot ! :-)
[19:41] <wad> A certain percent of the time, when I scroll down with the mouse wheel, it actually scrolls up a notch. Driving me nuts.... anyone know a solution?
[19:41] <daftykins> arkapravo: ok, please join #ubuntu-offtopic as this channel is for support only
[19:41] <arkapravo> okay daftykins
[19:42] <mchang> Jordan_U:  i googled this issue and it looks like it is related to avahi-daemon
[19:42] <daftykins> wad: that happens for me due to an aged mouse, could this be true for you as well?
[19:42] <wad> daftykins, an aged mouse?
[19:42] <trijntje> wad: old dell mouse, i've seen that before?
[19:42] <wad> Hmm, I'll switch to a different mouse and see what happens.
[19:43] <mchang> Jordan_U:  I tried anyway i can but the problem persists
[19:43] <daftykins> wad: yes, one that is old, had lots of use.
[19:43] <arkapravo> by the way daftykins - is there any other irc terminal based client in Ubuntu ? other than Irssi ?
[19:43] <rww> weechat
[19:43] <arkapravo> thanks rww
[19:43] <maheanuu> I switched it to anotherr 14.04 computer that I use for a guest unit but I am logged in as owner on it
[19:46] <wad> Hey, I switched mice, and this some seems better so far... thanks, daftykins!
[19:46] <wad> Why didn't I think of that? Assumed it was an OS issue. *facepalm*
[19:46] <arkapravo> screen
[19:46] <daftykins> wad: hehe, my pleasure. enjoy.
[19:47] <feriorulum>  hey m 19 suche jungen der lust hat mit mir zusammen abzuspritzen ^^ hey m 19 suche jungen der lust hat mit mir zusammen abzuspritzen ^^
[19:47] <feriorulum>  hey m 19 suche jungen der lust hat mit mir zusammen abzuspritzen ^^
[19:48] <daftykins> arkapravo: i'm guessing you're learning to use screen, so you'll want to "/quit" irssi, then re-run irssi within a screen session by e.g. "screen -U irssi" then detach from it with "ctrl+a, then d" and reattach to it with "screen -raAd"
[19:48] <rww> feriorulum: cut it out.
[19:49] <foreriulum>  hey m 19 suche jungen der lust hat mit mir zusammen abzuspritzen ^^
[19:49] <daftykins> rww: could we get a +q please?
[19:50] <Farva> jhutchins: yesterday you helped me with my DNS, it worked for the day, today it is not working again
[19:50] <DJones> http://www.midori-world.com//remove foreriulum
[19:51] <Farva> jhutchins: the DNS info is still in the file, nslookup shows that the DNS is resolving correctly, but people still cannot connect and it is only to the teamspeak address
[19:51] <japro> hmm, so i can change screen brightness in the settings but not with the hotkeys (acpi_listen doesn't show any events for the brightness keys but does for the volume keys)
[19:52] <japro> do the settings have a command line interface so i can bind them to a custom hotkey
[19:53] <Farva> jhutchins: if I attempt to connect to the DNS via its numeric IP I am also unable to connect to the team speak, it is a vIP. The only way I can connect to the teamspeak process is via the system IP
[19:54] <foreriulum> hodor?
[19:54] <foreriulum> hey manu? hast du lust mit mir zusammen abzuspritzen? :)
[19:54] <daftykins> !english | foreriulum
[19:55] <DJones> foreriulum: Bye Bye
[19:55] <foreriulum> oh
[19:55] <daftykins> DJones: yay :)
[19:55] <japro> hilarious that given what he said he was kicked for using the wrong language
[19:57] <japro> hmm, seems the only command line options gnome-control-center knows are help options
[19:59] <daftykins> japro: that was not the reason for the kick, however this convo is off topic
[20:01] <frodopwns> once i put a shell script in /etc/cron.hourly what do i have to do to make it start?
[20:02] <intrader> Anyone, I am on ubuntu 14.04, have backed using the provided backup utility named Backups, the backups are in a 32GB drive that shows when mounted as /media/intrader/3729-B90D/Backup. How do i look in Backup what files are stored there?
[20:07] <tgm4883> intrader: I don't think you can look in the backup. Are you trying to restore missing files?
[20:07] <Thete> Is there a way to do-release-upgrade to nightly?
[20:08] <intrader> tgm4883: yes - I have gone through the "Restore missing files" and found no files in the folder where the files were.
[20:08] <xangua> Thete: there is no 'nighty' in ubuntu, what do you mean
[20:08] <Thete> what?
[20:08] <tgm4883> Thete: why would you want to do that?
[20:08] <Thete> there is too nightly images
[20:08] <DJones> Thete: There is the development release
[20:09] <Thete> nevermind I'll just clean install
[20:09] <tgm4883> intrader: hmm, not sure then. That is where I was going to send you
[20:09] <DJones> !utopic ! Thete
[20:09] <tgm4883> Thete: if you aren't going to provide us with what you ultimately want to accomplish, then we can't help you
[20:09] <DJones> ok, bye
[20:10] <tgm4883> DJones: he probably thinks he needs to do that to get to the latest nightly build is my guess
[20:11] <NotTurbid> Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this, but whenever I hover my mouse the minimise or maximise buttons in Unity while a window is maximised, they become obscured by the name of the application, thus preventing me from using them. Does anyone know a possible cause or fix for this?
[20:11] <intrader> tgm4883,  there is another posssibility, the drive has several ubuntus - the last one I am sure had the file. How do I find the /home/Documents folders in thoser ubuntus?
[20:12] <tgm4883> intrader: it would really depend on how you installed/partitioned. Are each of them a single partition install or did you share your home partition between them?
[20:12] <s5fs> I have a weird issue, when I close my laptop lid (suspend), sometimes when I reopen it (resume) my desktop is just right there, no password needed. This is WAY uncool obviously :)
[20:12] <s5fs> Anyone else seen this, is there a fix?
[20:13] <japro> what determines how the fn key on laptops work?
[20:13] <intrader> tgm4883: I think single partitions. How do I look in the drive - I recall gparted or something like that?
[20:14] <reisio> japro: the physical hardware, the kernel, your keymap
[20:14] <tgm4883> intrader: not gparted. You can mount them to a folder, but you would need to know the drive partition letter/number
[20:15] <japro> so i guess figuring out why the fn+brightness keys don't work will be rather hard :/
[20:15] <tgm4883> japro: http://askubuntu.com/questions/24916/how-do-i-remap-certain-keys-or-devices
[20:15] <reisio> japro: did they work on the install media?
[20:15] <gcl5_cp> how can i configure 7 button mouse?
[20:16] <squinty> intrader:  try  Disks
[20:16] <intrader> tgm4883: that is the rub, since I upgraded to 14.04 I no longer see them. How do I see the partition letter/number?
[20:16] <reisio> s5fs: if all else fails, you can have pm-utils manually lock it on resume
[20:16] <mc2> hello
[20:16] <reisio> s5fs: or even on suspend
[20:16] <reisio> mc2: heya
[20:16] <japro> reisio, you mean when booting from the iso? i never actually tried since i just installed straight away
[20:17] <tgm4883> intrader: you could take a look at /dev/sd* or load up gparted and just look at the partition letters and see what size they are
[20:17] <tgm4883> intrader: or use fdisk
[20:17] <reisio> japro: give it a try
[20:17] <pegamoose> I need help with laptop wireless
[20:17] <Ilmen> Hello; I've recently changed my default input method to XIM (by setting GTK_IM_MODULE="xim") for being able to use a custom .XCompose; however now my Anthy input method for Japanese doesn't seem to work anymore. Is there a way to fix this?
[20:17] <mc2> speaks spanish?
[20:17] <japro> i had to create some backlight.conf file for the brightness change stuff working from the settings. but it seems acpi_list doesn't give events for th brightness keys
[20:18] <japro> it does for the others (volume) though
[20:18] <intrader> tgm4883, I will look, then I need to mount the other home to get at the file
[20:18] <reisio> mc2: /msg alis list *ubunt*es
[20:18] <jellow> !es | mc2
[20:18] <tgm4883> intrader: mounting the other partitions is pretty easy once we know the partition type
[20:19] <s5fs> reisio: i think you're right, but i'm also wondering if maybe it's just not suspending? although when i open the lid i can see the lock screen for a moment and then the desktop appears
[20:19] <s5fs> plus dude, i'd rather not hack around if there is a real solution, you know?
[20:19] <mc2> thank you :)
[20:19] <intrader> tgm4883, Disks not found, I will try gparted - I recall it is easy if you know how to do it >)
[20:20] <dc46> Any solution to MAC Cloning problem in Network Manager..?
[20:20] <alami> hello, can i know wich cpu model do i have, lscpu doesn't show..
[20:21] <intrader> tgm4883, gparted not found
[20:21] <pbx> dc46, if this is a known problem, give us a URL for reference. if it's particular to you, give specific details.
[20:21] <japro> alami, try less /proc/cpuinfo" maybe
[20:21] <xmodr> hi, I have a laptop with a 16:10 display and an external montior with a 16:9 display. When I set the output of the monitor to be 16:9 the screen is cropped. At a 16:10 resolution it isnt (but it isnt the correct resolution). Any idea?
[20:21] <tgm4883> intrader: you'll have to install it
[20:21] <dc46> pbx, wait.. I'll get you an URL.
[20:21] <squinty> intrader:  gparted is not part of the default install... you will have to install it.  suprized you can't find Disks though
[20:22] <SchrodingersScat> !info gnome-disks
[20:22] <alami> japro: thanks :-)
[20:22] <intrader> tgm4883, neither of them here - how do I install gparted or Disks
[20:22] <squinty> alami:  or install   inxi     gives lots of info about your system and saves a lot of messing around
[20:22] <reisio> s5fs: you could tell that by the lights/power/indicators
[20:22] <tgm4883> !info gnome-disk-utility
[20:22] <dc46> pbx, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/787192
[20:22] <reisio> s5fs: fairly common bug with xscreensaver/window manager
[20:23] <reisio> probably more the window manager's fault
[20:23] <tgm4883> intrader: SchrodingersScat it's gnome-disk-utility
[20:23] <SchrodingersScat> tgm4883: thanks
[20:23] <reisio> indeed with Unity/GNOME, I'm not sure xscreensaver is even used by default anymore
[20:23] <reisio> some nascent locking replacement
[20:23] <reisio> so you might just try using xscreensaver
[20:24] <squinty> alami:  https://code.google.com/p/inxi/
[20:24] <intrader> tgm4883, gnome-disk-utility not found
[20:24] <c3vin> can anyone help explain why the following steps to assign local groups to LDAP user broke Unity?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAPClientAuthentication
[20:24] <s5fs> reisio: will do, thanks again!
[20:24] <tgm4883> intrader: are you just typing that into the command line?
[20:24] <c3vin> after implementing PAM changes, desktop fails to appear
[20:25] <jellow> intrader: To install gparted either use ubuntu software center ( search gparted) , Or "sudo apt-get install gparted" from terminal it will ask for you password.
[20:25] <c3vin> tailing logs suggests authentication succeeds, but perhaps an issue with PAM
[20:25] <SchrodingersScat> intrader: sudo apt-get install gnome-disk-utility
[20:25] <tgm4883> intrader: the package name is gnome-disk-utility, to launch it from the command line you would type 'gnome-disks'
[20:26] <intrader> tgm4883, yes, on terminal - I will install - be careful not to deflate the universe SchrodingersScat
[20:26] <SchrodingersScat> intrader: no warranty
[20:29] <intrader> tgm4883, jellow, SchrodingersScat  uhm, it says that gnome-disk-utility is alredy there!:'sudo: gnome-disk-utility: command not found'
[20:29] <tgm4883> intrader: to launch it from the command line you would type 'gnome-disks'
[20:32] <jellow> intrader: on a side note if you install an application you can list all it's files with sudo dpkg -L some-package-name, useful in finding the executable name to launch
[20:34] <intrader> tgm4883, jellow, SchrodingersScat  'gnome-disks' works, who would have guessed - by the way, it looks that I must have done something wrong when I upgraded to 14.04 or installed 12.04
[20:34] <SnakeTrailSteve> So I just installed 14.04 and have no sound and very little evidence why.  It's not ALSA itself: aplay -Dhw blah works just fine.  Other apps (including paman) report everything is fine, but no sound is coming out.  Any ideas?  The only log entry is a couple liens of "Default and alternative sample rates are the same"
[20:35] <Ilmen> Well, I just checked; as soon as I start Ubuntu with the environment variable GTK_IM_MODULE="xim" in .gnomerc, Anthy doesn't work anymore. When I unset it and restart, Anthy works again. Is there a way to fix this?
[20:35] <xmodr> anyone currently have an external monitor at a different aspect ratio than their connected laptop?
[20:35] <Ilmen> (Anthy is using ibus as an input method if I understand correctly)
[20:36] <intrader> tgm4883, jellow, SchrodingersScat  I recall there used to be a partition 5,now there is only partition 6 within extended partition 3. no luck - I must go to older drive with backups
[20:37] <jellow> Internet13: sorry to hear that, lucky you have backups at the very least.
[20:37] <intrader> tgm4883, jellow, SchrodingersScat  thanks guys - wish me luck as I need some old files inside Documents folder
[20:39]  * SnakeTrailSteve tweaks switches at random, suddenly hears sound, still has no idea why.  PulseAudio bah
[20:40] <SnakeTrailSteve> Hah just some stupid commercial auto-playing on another box that shares the speakers, still no joy with PA.
[20:42] <guite> hi all, I have a problem when launching unity-tweak-tool on ubuntu 14.04
[20:42] <guite> an error says: “The following schema is missing com.canonical.Unity.Files Lens”
[20:43] <tjbiddle> Anyone know if I can further compress a .tgz file? I have an 11GB file I need to put into S3 but S3 only supports up to 5gb it seems
[20:43] <vbgunz> does anyone know why some applications allow a backslash but others show \
[20:43] <reisio> tjbiddle: S3?
[20:43] <vbgunz> in fact, I'm seeing \ everywhere now
[20:43] <vbgunz> why?
[20:43] <tjbiddle> reisio: Amazon Web Services S3
[20:44] <reisio> ah
[20:44] <reisio> tjbiddle: you could gunzip it and try xz or lrzip
[20:44] <reisio> tjbiddle: how much was it uncompressed?
[20:44] <reisio> vbgunz: allow?
[20:45] <vbgunz> allow is a stupid word, my terminal sees a backslash correctly but every other app doesn't, at least most that I'm in. a backslash becomes \
[20:45] <tjbiddle> reisio: It's already compressed into a .tgz file. I'm just curious if I can compress that even further (Like tar czf a .tgz file). Not familiar enough with tar's compressing algorithm to see if that would even help
[20:45] <reisio> vbgunz: becomes what now?
[20:45] <reisio> tjbiddle: there are more efficient compression formats than gz, yes
[20:46] <vbgunz> do you not see it? it's a W with a strikethrough
[20:46] <reisio> tjbiddle: dunno if they'd be 6GB more efficient, depends on what the uncompressed size was if you'd have a chance
[20:46] <reisio> tjbiddle: tar -tvf will give you the uncompressed size in bytes
[20:46] <tjbiddle> reisio: ~80gb uncompressed
[20:46] <japro> so it seems the fn+brightnes keys are not reported by xev, evtest or acpi_listen :/
[20:46] <reisio> tjbiddle: can it not take 11 GB in total, or not as a single file?
[20:47] <tjbiddle> reisio: I think if I do a multipart upload then it will - but haven't been able to figure out how to get that to work with their api yet. Sec - have a google hangout to attend for a few
[20:47] <reisio> tjbiddle: use 'split' to get it in manageable chunks
[20:48] <Superbob97> Hi guys, I was told to come here after someone thinking my system is borked.  I'm running kubuntu, I'm a beginner to Linux, and I can't seem to install irssi
[20:48] <tgm4883> Superbob97: what is the output when you try to install it?
[20:49] <guite> still nobody for my question ?
[20:49] <Superbob97> When I run 'sudo apt-get install irssi' I get 'E: unmet dependencies. Try 'apt get -f install' with no packages'
[20:49] <guite> I repost, just in case :)
[20:49] <guite> I have a problem when launching unity-tweak-tool on ubuntu 14.04 => an error says: “The following schema is missing com.canonical.Unity.Files Lens”
[20:50] <tgm4883> Superbob97: and did you try that?
[20:50] <air_ie3> hi
[20:50] <Superbob97> Yes, I get the same output
[20:50] <reisio> hi air
[20:50] <air_ie3> antone here?
[20:50] <air_ie3> anyone
[20:50] <air_ie3> hi si
[20:50] <air_ie3> sir
[20:51] <air_ie3> how come therres so many in chat but not many speak?
[20:51] <tgm4883> Superbob97: odd, do you have a bunch of PPA's active or something? Can you pastebin the full output when you run both commands?
[20:51] <tgm4883> air_ie3: if you have a question, ask it
[20:54] <Superbob97> tgm4883: Hold on, I ran the apt-get -f install command as root, and some crazy things are happening
[20:54] <Superbob97> it seems to be removing EVERYTHING
[20:54] <tgm4883> Superbob97: so you didn't read what it was trying to do?
[20:54] <tgm4883> Superbob97: or it's asking you to remove everything?
[20:56] <squinty> guite:  http://askubuntu.com/questions/449943/com-canonical-unity-webapps-schema-is-missing-what-does-this-mean   maybe that will help
[20:56] <Superbob97> tgm4883: It runs a bunch of things than stops and gives me a bunch of options to type in because of unknown media
[20:57] <vbgunz> looks like the strikethrough W from putting in a backslash was a font problem
[20:57] <guite> squinty: thanks, but unity-webapps-service is already installed
[20:58] <SnakeTrailSteve> No pulseaudio gurus on hand?
[20:58] <guite> squinty: but thanks for answering :)
[20:58] <tgm4883> Superbob97: I'm not sure where you are at this point, but I'd probably do an apt-get install of the desktop you want, eg. kubuntu-desktop
[20:59] <george> Hello there can i ask someone for a problem i have on ubuntu?
[21:00] <Farva> I am having a problem connecting to my vIP for teamspeak. When I nslookup the DNS resolves correctly, but I cannot connect to it via DNS or vIP. I can however connect to the process via system IP I don't know what to do about this
[21:00] <guntbert> !ask | george
[21:00] <reisio> george: I could give you a problem, if you ask
[21:00] <george> I download and install the latest version of 64 bit. at the login screen i put my password and it takes ages to take me to the desktop i show my desktop background with mouse pointer for 40 seconds then lauches unity.
[21:01] <Ladon> How do I resolve this error?:
[21:01] <Ladon> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[21:01] <Ladon>  lib32gcc1 : Depends: gcc-4.9-base (= 4.9-20140406-0ubuntu1) but 4.9.1-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[21:01] <ozooner_> !patience
[21:03] <tgm4883> Ladon: did you try installing that specific version of gcc-4.9-base?
[21:04] <xmodr> anyone currently have an external monitor at a different aspect ratio than their connected laptop?
[21:05] <spearhead> xmodr, I do, but the computer it is on is runing mint
[21:05] <Ladon> I... might actually not know how to downgrade, tgm4883
[21:05] <Ladon> ozooner_, what are you trying to send me?
[21:06] <Jolianne23>  Here some videos. I hope you like them! http://tinyurl.com/ozfvxy3
[21:06] <ozooner_> Ladon, Sorry, getting used with irc client...
[21:06] <xmodr> spearhead: and does it just work? I can only get my exrternal montior to display somewhat correctly in 16:10 - but its bad because its actually meanto be be 16:9 - using 1920x1080 causes the screen to be cropped.
[21:06] <Ladon> holy shit a spam bot?
[21:06] <arch> LOL!!!
[21:06] <utopiabel> Alooo
[21:06] <k1l> dont mind the spambot
[21:07] <arch> that is porn am 12 yold
[21:07] <guntbert> !askthebot | ozooner_
[21:07] <arch> omg what are they doing¿?
[21:07] <tgm4883> Ladon: you can install a specific version of a package by doing 'apt-get install gcc-4.9-base=4.9-20140406-0ubuntu1'
[21:07] <arch> they are naked!!
[21:07] <k1l> arch: dont mind that, lets stick to technical ubuntu support in here
[21:08] <rww> k1l: I suggest that continuing to ban random numbers is not working :P
[21:08] <Ladon> that's so easy that I feel bad
[21:08] <spearhead> xmodr, yeah, it just works, just make sure the resolution that the screen is set to is supported by the screen
[21:09] <xmodr> spearhead: setting it to the correct res at aspect ratio 16:9  - black bars at side.. setting it to 16:10 same as laptop - fine but fuzzy due to wrong AR
[21:09] <Ladon> wait, tgm4883 if I have gcc-4.9-base=4.9-20140406-0ubuntu1 installed but need 4.9.1-0ubuntu1 how do I downgrade?
[21:09] <Ladon> using apt-get install for a downgrade just tells me it's the newest version
[21:10] <tgm4883> Ladon: that command should have downgraded it for you, did you put in exactly what I wrote?
[21:10] <spearhead> xmodr, are you sure the screen is a 16:9?
[21:10] <squinty> guite:  do you have  unity-lens-files   installed?   or maybe try reinstalling it
[21:11] <Ladon> uhhhhh
[21:11] <xmodr> yep - the resolution is 1920x1080

[21:11] <dunpeal> Hi. How do I list all my currently active repositories on the command line?
[21:11] <guite> squinty: \o/
[21:12] <guite> squinty: you’re the boss :)
[21:12] <guite> squinty: thank you so much
[21:12] <squinty> guite:  :)  good to hear
[21:12] <Ladon> !pastebinit
[21:12] <spearhead> xmodr, how big are the black bars at 16:9?
[21:13] <xmodr> spearhead about ~1.5inches
[21:13] <Ladon> Sorry for flooding, I'll use the paste.ubuntu if I need to do that again.
[21:13] <Ladon> but tgm4883 that command will bork me
[21:15] <dunpeal> How do I list all my currently active repositories on the command line?
[21:15] <spearhead> xmodr, ummm then something isn't setup right... either the display is not configured to support 16:9 or you haven't selected the correct resolution in the Display settings. does your monitor have an adjust/auto button?
[21:15] <Ladon> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8382660/
[21:15] <Mike9863> How can I configure Unity's default multitouch features? For example, I'd like to make four finger swipe change workspaces rather than unhide the unity bar.
[21:16] <k1l_> dunpeal: "cat /etc/apt/sources.list" and "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d"
[21:16] <xmodr> spearhead: on an older laptop - everything worked fine (also ubuntu). I had to manually add these resolutions via xrandr. I tried the auto adjust on the montior but it does very little to help./
[21:16] <dunpeal> k1l_: thanks.
[21:17] <spearhead> xmodr, are you set to mirror the display to the second monitor or extend the desktop onto the new monitor
[21:17] <xmodr> spearhead, it's set to extend
[21:18] <spearhead> xmodr, what is the resolution set to in the Display Settings window?
[21:18] <xmodr> spearhead, only after adding it via xrandr, its now set to 1920x1080 in Display Settings
[21:18] <squinty> dunpeal:   one way is to install  inxi   and then issue the command   inxi -r    in a terminal.
[21:19] <xmodr> spearhead, and the info screen on the actual monitor confirms it
[21:19] <spearhead> xmodr, what version of ubuntu are you running? 14.04?
[21:19] <squinty> dunpeal:  see  https://code.google.com/p/inxi/
[21:19] <xmodr> yes, actually just insalled today - and done a update after install to.
[21:20] <spearhead> what is the actual monitor manufacture/model?
[21:21] <xmodr> spearhead, the monitor is a HP Pavilion 23xi
[21:24] <spearhead> hmmm, I don't know. it's native resolution is 1920x1080 and that is what you have it set to on your laptop then it should just work unless you are mirroring your display... have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in?
[21:24] <xmodr> spearhead, yep - and rebooting etc. this is very strange. I am using a cheap VGA cable, possible cause?
[21:24] <sheap> what commands do the indicator-session run?
[21:25] <spearhead> possible, but not very probable... I really have no idea.
[21:25] <sheap> s/do/does/g
[21:26] <xmodr> spearhead, I just tried it on another monitor and same outcome
[21:27] <spearhead> xmodr, possible wrong settings on the laptop... I haven't ever used xrandr
[21:27] <xmodr> on other laptops (nvidia GPU) it just worked - never had to manually add resolutions before.
[21:27] <postman|> My lightdm acts up about 5% of the time when I lock my desktop.  See here: http://imgur.com/uRHNSbp  No option for password entry and no power button in the upper right hand corner.  Logging back in requires restarting the lightdm service (losing the current session in the process).  Any idea what's going on here?
[21:28] <qwerkus> still struggling with my samba share. I just can't access the folder with windows. log level 100 gives me this sequence: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8382728/
[21:28] <Farva> I am having a problem connecting to my vIP for teamspeak. When I nslookup the DNS resolves correctly, but I cannot connect to it via DNS or vIP. I can however connect to the process via system IP I don't know what to do about this
[21:29] <Farva> can anyone tell me where to start on problem solving this?
[21:31] <daftykins> Farva: what's this "vIP" you speak of?
[21:31] <dartie> hello!
[21:31] <Farva> virtual ip
[21:32] <daftykins> Farva: yes but in more detail, i am used to a server having a real IP address on the internet - what makes it virtual?
[21:32] <Farva> I have each of my processes running on its own ip under my system IP
[21:32] <dunpeal> What's the most user-friendly way to check the local HDD for errors?
[21:32] <squinty> xmodr: if you have nvidia graphics, and the nvidia drivers (not nouveau) installed, check nvidia X Server Settings
[21:33] <Farva> so my server has a system IP, then I have a range of IPs, so each IP besides my system IP is a virtual IP
[21:33] <daftykins> Farva: so... two IPs on your home LAN?
[21:33] <Farva> no, through my data center
[21:33] <Farva> I work off a dedi
[21:33] <daftykins> oh ok, so this feature is something your provider offers?
[21:33] <Farva> no, its just something I can do in Ubuntu
[21:34] <tgm4883> Ladon: sorry had to run to the business office. yea don't run that command in this instance, looks like too much depends on that particular version. What are you trying to install that requires that specific version?
[21:34] <daftykins> Farva: odd, i've never heard of it before - unless this is just mutli-homed hosts
[21:34] <Ladon> graphics drivers lol
[21:34] <squinty> qwerkus:  if you haven't tried it already maybe install and give   system-config-samba   a look see
[21:34] <qwerkus> EDIT: Turns out that samba is working fine, if I create a folder in my home dir.
[21:35] <k1l_> Farva: usually you have the real ip and then the specific port for the TS service
[21:35] <qwerkus> ergo: something wrong with the mountpoint. Where should one put samba shares ?
[21:35] <squinty> dunpeal:  Drives (in menu)  check the smart settings   for bad blocks etc
[21:35] <Farva> k1l_: I bound the TS IP specifically, maybe its just not taking?
[21:35] <Farva> daftykins: http://www.alkia.net/index.php/faqs/144-setting-up-second-ip-address-or-virtual-ip-address-in-ubuntu
[21:36] <k1l_> Farva: i dont understand what you are doing at all!
[21:36] <daftykins> Farva: yeah, it is then - but this is unnecessary, ports exist to allow multiple programs to work at once on a single IP
[21:36] <Farva> well, I setup TS on its own IP on my server. Each of my games I host run on their own IP on the server as well
[21:36] <daftykins> yeah you're just complicating life :)
[21:37] <intrader> tgm4883, jellow: I have rebooted - even after reboot deja-dup insists on wanting the backup on '31 GB Volume' - yet the new volume is 15GB and with different name - Unable to scan since it is not recognized by the backup program
[21:37] <Farva> daftykins: I figured it could be useful at some point
[21:37] <dunpeal> squinty: I have a bunch of bad sectors. what do I do?
[21:37] <Farva> but I guess I have not considered rebinding the IP to the system
[21:38] <Farva> good advice!
[21:38] <Farva> I am gonna take that and run lol
[21:38] <Farva> <3
[21:38] <Neozonz|Disc2> anyone know what 'set'  on bash does?
[21:38] <Neozonz|Disc2> i can't find any info on it
[21:38] <k1l_> Farva: are the ips working on that machine?
[21:38] <Neozonz|Disc2> yet when I type it I get alot of code back
[21:39] <Ladon> sorry, I forgot to tag. tgm4883 , graphics drivers lol
[21:39] <evgenius123> Well, hi all
[21:39] <squinty> dunpeal:  one thing you can do is see if the drive manufacturer has hd software testing program (most are windows based though) to see if the drive is dying on you
[21:40] <evgenius123> can somebody help me with my videosystem? if somewhere can help me in russian, please, prompt.
[21:40] <daftykins> !ru | evgenius123
[21:40] <k1l_> !ru | evgenius123
[21:41] <evgenius123> ok thanks
[21:41] <Neozonz|Disc2> nm found my answer http://askubuntu.com/questions/105728/anomalous-result-using-bash-set-command
[21:45] <tgm4883> Ladon: graphics drivers from the repos, or from the manu website?
[21:46] <Ladon> from the repos, fglrx-updates + ccc.... cccccc
[21:46] <YokoBR> hi guys
[21:47] <YokoBR> i had an ubuntu system, then i've used it's hdd on other laptop, and used an image on it. The problem is that i've lost files i shouldn't lose... is there anyway to get them back after using this image?
[21:47] <tgm4883> hmm
[21:47] <qwerkus> right. This has something to do with folder permissions. How can I share a folder outside /home ?
[21:48] <YokoBR> nope, not that
[21:48] <YokoBR> i've used clonezilla to put an image on my hdd, but i need some old files
[21:48] <usr13> qwerkus: Why not just have it somewhere in /home ?
 mainly in order to avoid accidentally deleting it. My /home is quite unstable.
[21:50] <qwerkus> Still, it would be nice to know how this works.
[21:51] <usr13> qwerkus: I'm late to the conversation, (just got here), probably should not have made the comment but, really?  You think you will accidentally delete a directory?  (Not likely.)
[21:51] <Ladon> I just discovered that terminal has autocomplete
[21:51] <Ladon> lol
[21:51]  * Ladon is idiot
[21:51] <usr13> Ladon: Very handy... right?
[21:51] <Ladon> insanely so
[21:52] <Ladon> another step closer to command-line input only
 it's about samba sharing. I keep getting "permission denied" errors under windows. The best I could do was to share a folder within /home, and I would very much like to understand why.
[21:52] <Ladon> although I like having ubuntu basically virtualized
[21:53] <Wryness> Hey guys. I am looking for a tool, script or w/e that might do the following and maybe you could help me find it or point me to a direction: I need manipulate a textfile in a way that all lines are deleted that do not show up so and so often. Or, alternatively, the tool/script needs to order the file by amount of occurrences of the respective line. Do you have any ideas how to achieve that?
[21:54] <usr13> qwerkus: Ok, so I am just learning that this is about samba, but again, it should not matter where you put it and I usually find /home is the best place for samba or nfs shares, (it is just easier and more convienient).
[21:54] <Ladon> Wryness, so you're looking for a count-and-sort style tool?
[21:54] <asakapab0i>  /mnt
[21:55] <jaequery_> hi guys, i have this server where i messed up my /etc/fstab so i am trying to single user mode into it.  but when i get into grub selection screen, my keyboard just seem to not respond.  i have tried it with another keyboard and same thing!  wtf could be causing this?
[21:55] <Wryness> Ladon: yes, exactly.
[21:56] <Ladon> Wryness, not exactly sure but try this
[21:56] <Ladon> http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/textproc.html
[21:56] <Jordan_U> jaequery_: Please watch your language. Does your keyboard work in your boot firmware menus? grub (by default) relies on your boot firmware for input and output, so if your boot firmware can't access the keyboard, neither can grub.
[21:56] <Wryness> Ladon: thanks, I will check it out
[21:57] <jaequery_> kb works fine inside bios
[21:57] <Raven-6> I'm on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04, how do I prevent the screen from shutting off on the login screen? The power options are all set to always on
[21:57] <Wryness> seems like it will do the job, great :)
[21:58] <Jordan_U> jaequery_: And you can see the grub menu?
[21:58] <jaequery_> yes
[21:58] <usr13> qwerkus: pastebinit /etc/samba/smb.conf  #Send url
[21:58] <Jordan_U> jaequery_: Does your BIOS have an option for "legacy USB support"?
[21:58] <eeee> Raven-6: gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter idle-timeout 0
[21:59] <jaequery_> hm, checking now
 sec
[21:59] <eeee> Raven-6: try that out ^^
[21:59] <sheap> does anyone know what commands/interface the "indicator-session" uses/calls?
[21:59] <Ladon> Is... okay, going out on a crazy limb, is it possible to "format" ubuntu if I do-release-upgrade? only preserve /home/ and stuff?
[21:59] <Raven-6> eeee Thank you. But it's not using the Unity Greeter, it's using the gnome greeter. I did however install lightdm, and unity-greeter, so how can I Switch to unity greeter?
[22:00] <eeee> Raven-6: no idea
[22:00] <eeee> Raven-6: i guess you could uninstall gdm..
[22:00] <jaequery_> jodrdan: i dont see it
[22:00] <qwerkus> usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8382950/
[22:01] <Raven-6> eeee are display managers and greeters synonymous
[22:01] <k1l_> Raven-6: yes
[22:01] <Jordan_U> Ladon: Why are you trying to install drivers from outside the repos?
[22:01] <Jordan_U> !tab | jaequery_
[22:01] <Raven-6> k1l_ so if I do sudo apt-get purge gdm that will uninstall gnome greeter?
[22:01] <k1l_> Raven-6: see the conf from lightdm to see which greeter to set
[22:02] <Ladon> Jordan_U, I was using the repo earlier and ran into problems with gcc-4.9-base
[22:02] <Ladon> so I went rogue
[22:02] <Raven-6> k1l_ can you help me with that?
[22:02] <qwerkus> NEVERMIND, it works.
[22:02] <Raven-6> k1l_ I'm not exactly sure how to do that
[22:02] <k1l_> Raven-6: gdm is a dm. the greeter is just "look" of lightdm
[22:02] <usr13> qwerkus: http://paste.linuxassist.net/view/a8999824
[22:02] <jaequery_> jordan_u: ok so what do you think?
[22:02] <Jordan_U> Ladon: What problem did you have with the drivers from the repositories exactly? How did you try to install these drivers?
[22:03] <trism> sheap: it calls a variety of dbus methods depending on the situation, if you are in unity I believe these days it just calls the ones on com.canonical.Unity.Session, you can play around with d-feet to see the various methods available
[22:03] <usr13> qwerkus: What I should you would be for no security
[22:03] <Raven-6> k1l_ if you could tell me how to access the conf for lightdm I'd appreciate it
[22:03] <Ladon> It's too far back in my history to resend, Jordan_U. It wanted me to downgrade gcc to "sudo apt-get install fglrx amdccle(?)"
[22:03] <trism> sheap: you can also use the gdbus command to call them from the command line, but its hard to explore them there
[22:03] <Jordan_U> jaequery_: I'm not exactly sure, but using grub's "ata_keyboard" might allow you to access the grub menu, the catch of course being that you'd have to either interact with grub or edit root owned files to achieve that. Can you boot from a LiveCD/USB?
 nah. The problem was indeed fil permissions. Those are inherited. To share the folder, I had to chmod the root folder of the disk. Don't know why.
[22:04] <k1l_> Raven-6: so does lightdm start or gdm?
[22:04] <Raven-6> k1l_ I'm not sure. I did select lightdm as default dm in the dialog.
[22:04] <k1l_> Raven-6: and i am not sure if the gnome-ubuntu needs the gdm
[22:05] <sheap> trism: thanks for your help. I installed 14.04 with tasksel "ubuntu-desktop" and "xubuntu-desktop" and I'm in the xubuntu session where the indicator-session shows up. When I try to logout from that indicator nothing happens and I'm guess that that com.canonical.unity.session might be the culprit since I'm in a xubuntu session?
[22:05] <usr13> qwerkus: ls -ld /home/qwerkus/Democratic\ HDD/share
[22:05] <sheap> and logging into the Ubuntu session and logging out with the indicator-session works fine...
[22:06] <usr13> qwerkus: So /home/qwerkus/Democratic\ HDD/share is a mount point?
[22:07] <mo0p> hello
[22:07] <Timoty>  Hello you
 no. /hom/qwerkus/Dem. HDD is the mount point, and share the shared folder. As soon as I chmodded the mount point, it worked. Trying to move it outside the home folder again.
[22:07] <mo0p> Anyone had issues with Virtualbox + usb 2.0 passthrough ?
[22:08] <usr13> qwerkus: Ok
[22:09] <trism> sheap: that could be the issue, you could try running dbus-monitor to see which methods are actually getting called, or if you can figure out how to get logging output from indicator-session in xfce see if any method failure errors pop up
[22:10] <sheap> trism: thanks for that dbus-monitor. lots of output! :)
[22:11] <Jordan_U> Ladon: What version of Ubuntu are you using? Do you use any ppas?
[22:12] <qwerkus> pffff. It just won't wort outside the /home dir. So be it.
[22:12] <qwerkus> *work
[22:14] <jimi> ubuntu update?
[22:15] <jimi> version 14.0
[22:19] <k1l_> jimi: what?
[22:20] <jimi> version 10.10 is version 14
[22:21] <k1l_> !th | jimi
[22:21] <k1l_> jimi: or try to make english sentences or questions that describe your issue
[22:23] <jimi> KIl:Thank you very much.
[22:25] <wudo> What does "I am getting sold on this no sugar business" mean?
[22:26] <k1l_> wudo: is this a technical ubuntu issue?
[22:29] <jimi> kIl:What time is it?
[22:30] <k1l_> jimi: type "date" into terminal
[22:31] <qwerkus> man. As always in my xp with linux: a pain to set up, but than it's amazing how well it works. File permissions with samba are just awesome.
[22:31] <jimi> kIl:Thank you.
[22:36] <squinty> qwerkus: not sure if you saw this first time around (please ignore if you did)  system-config-samba    (gui for setting up samba shares and users)   you can use it to set up shares outside of your home directory too
[22:36] <smart_developer> For anyone who has used OpenStack Swift before, does anyone know why a "swift ..... stat" command may yield the # of objects stored in the cluster to be x-1, when you've actually uploaded x objects? (all x are downloadable, as well)
[22:37] <smart_developer> Moreover, for a time being, it really did claim that there were x objects, but then later it dropped down to x-1.
[22:37] <smart_developer> But I can still re-download all x objects.
[22:38] <jimi> What is compiz?

[22:42] <ezio> how do i install mysql 3.5 instead of 5
[22:44] <cwex> hello
[22:44] <Tyr-> hi
[22:46] <cwex> i have a server solely for mysql and memcached, 2GB of RAM and 100GB of SSD storage. The databases won't be resource intensive and nor will memcached. Is there any need for a swap file?
[22:46] <cwex> If so, how much should I use because 100GB of storage is going to waste :P
[22:48] <chrisss123456> hey guys, some stupid questions. started with the real basic, id like to use the alt-gr key on my laptop, but if i assign it in keyboard shortcuts (to swap workspaces) then it doesnt accept it. what gives?
[22:48] <cwex> Never mind - High RAM and high disk space With 2 GiB RAM and 100 GB hard disk, use 2 GiB for swap since hard disk space is plentiful.
[22:48] <cwex> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq
[22:49] <sam__> fuck yall
[22:55] <jimi> squinty:Thank you.
[22:55] <dunpeal> I'm trying to repair the laptop's only HDD from an ubuntu 12.04 LiveDVD, and badblocks says it can't do that because the disk is in use. How can I boot in such a mode that the disk won't be in use?
[22:58] <ObrienDave> you should be able to unmount it from the desktop icon or gparted
[22:59] <squinty> dunpeal:  or Disks (should be in menu)
[22:59] <ezio> how do i install mysql 3.5 instead of 5
[22:59] <stefanauss> dunpeal: if the drive has a swap partition, it is automatically used by the live envinoment. you have to unount the swap before acting on the drive
[23:01] <stefanauss> you can use the swapoff command that is specific for unmounting swap partition/files
[23:02] <dunpeal> stefanauss: thanks.
[23:03] <dunpeal> stefanauss: instead I just deleted all partitions on the drive
[23:03] <dunpeal> and rebooted in text mode
[23:03] <dunpeal> now badblocks runs well.
[23:03] <dunpeal> squinty: Disks gave me "Error synchronizing after initial wipe" for some reason.
[23:09] <Loshki> dunpeal: sounds like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-disk-utility/+bug/1318954
[23:10] <Loshki> Did I just inadvertently trigger the bot?
[23:10] <dunpeal> Loshki: yeah, I saw that one too. unfortunately, there's no kind of solution in that thread that can help me.
[23:10] <ubunut> Yes, well done. :)
[23:11] <dunpeal> Loshki: basically, it's a bug. I don't see anything that can solve it.
[23:11] <qwerkus> Anyone running ubuntu on a usb stick here ? What should I be looking for (hardware) ? Some sticks out there come with awesome read values, but poor write ones.
[23:11] <Loshki> dunpeal: can't you use a different disk utility?
[23:11] <stefanauss> no other graphical disk utility has ever worked reliably in my experience, apart from gparted
[23:12] <mzaza> I am trying to download a file through google chrome, but I have unstable download so Google Chrome download manager is no good at resuming interrupted downloads. I used to work with wget and it worked as expected, however when I try to download certain file now wget doesn't work, any ideas? The file URL is http://dl.sammobile.com/OlBZQ1krLD0hICBDLCZRRERYJisoNzotUTEhNSdGEx0EUlNAWUFHXA../N8000XXUDNE4_N8000OXADNE4_DBT.zip
[23:13] <maurer> Is there an easy way to simultaneously mirror ubuntu and debian?
[23:13] <OerHeks>  mzaza thosedots in  ~A../N8~ looks wrong
[23:13] <maurer> The archvsync from debian seems to not want to
[23:13] <stefanauss> mzaza: wget it's not logged in, unlike chrome, so it can't download that file
[23:13] <mzaza> I guess it doesn't work because I have to be signed in to the site, how can I save login details for wget to use, or open session for wget?
[23:13] <mzaza> stefanauss: Is it possible to open session for wget?
[23:14] <OerHeks> looks like it is shortenend
[23:14] <stefanauss> mzaza: yes. it's like snowden did what he did :)
[23:14] <mzaza> OerHeks: The link works, as stefanauss mentioned the problem is with not being logged in
[23:15] <Loshki> you can supply username/password to wget. See the man page for --user and --password etc. Might work...
[23:15] <mzaza> stefanauss: Snowden?
[23:15] <dunpeal> Loshki: I think I'm good with badblocks
[23:15] <mzaza> Loshki: I'll give it a try
[23:16] <Loshki> dunpeal: I haven't used badblocks in years. With modern drives, it doesn't do much, since they map out bad blocks automagically...
[23:16] <stefanauss> mzaza: Snowden used wget to retrieve the million documents he retrieved. and he could do that because wget support logins, even complex ones
[23:16] <stefanauss> mzaza: i don't know about user/pass, but wget has an option that lets you use cookie from your browser. you have to export/identify the correct cookie beforehand.
[23:17] <mzaza> stefanauss: Ah, that guy from CIA :D
[23:17] <squinty> dunpeal:  and that is why I suggest you use your manufacturer testing sofware to see if the drive is salvageable or not.  once the drive starts going bad, more bad blocks will occur.
[23:18] <mzaza> Loshki: --http-user=user --http-password=password don't work
[23:20] <Loshki> mzaza: try --load-cookies next, I guess....
[23:27] <mzaza> Loshki: I am not able to locate the cookies folder, I tried .cache/google-chrome/Default but no cookies there and neither in .local/google-chrome
[23:28] <JtRip> google
[23:29] <Loshki> mzaza: now I look at the man page, I don't know where chrome keeps its cookies, or if the format is compatible. Sorry. If it won't work from a browser, I'm not convinced it will work with wget.
[23:30] <stefanauss> if it works life firefox, chrome stores cookies in a sqlite database. so you need to export them from the app itself. probably you'll need an extension for that.

[23:35] <samthewildone> What's the deal with the errors ?
[23:36] <Guest11388> um. I need help restoring my grub menue
[23:37] <Guest11388> It seems I anaged to screw it up some how. Is this the right place for this?
[23:37] <Guest11388> I was attempmting to dual boot with another linux disrto and it trashedmy bootloader
[23:39] <squinty> Guest11388:   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting   Boot-repair usually works
[23:40] <Alanbitsch> hi
[23:40] <Alanbitsch> i want to change from ubuntu 13.04 to 14.04
[23:41] <Alanbitsch> can someone guide me?
[23:43] <Guest11388> squinty, I have no grub and installing grub rescue in14.04 failed
[23:44] <JtRip> no
[23:44] <Alanbitsch> JtRip: ._.
[23:44] <JtRip> :D
[23:44] <samthewildone> I'm trying to read my .xsession-errors, how do I fix the errors ?
[23:44] <Alanbitsch> JtRip: xD
[23:44] <squinty> Alanbitsch:  might want to look around the ubuntu site for similar to this tut  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TrustyUpgrades
[23:45] <Alanbitsch> if i make a backup in 13.04 it will work in 14.04?
[23:45] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | Guest11388
[23:45] <dunpeal> squinty: you are probably right. I'm trying to save this old laptop of my friend.
[23:46] <dunpeal> it's a laptop, so replacing the HDD will probably be very expensive, and I don't think she can afford it right now.
[23:46] <Jordan_U> Alanbitsch: You have (at least) two options. 1: Upgrade to 13.10, then to 14.04 or 2: Install 14.04 over 13.04 with an install DVD/USB, optionally preserving your /home/.
[23:47] <Alanbitsch> Jordan_U: if i make a backup in 13.04 it will work in 14.04?
[23:47] <squinty> Guest11388:  notice the bit about  "Boot-Repair"
[23:47] <Adam_Dobrawy> I have problem with file permission. I have file /webapps/rownosc_info/app/rownosc_info/assets/js/bootstrap.min.js (-rw-r--r--). I think everybody should can read it - no matter which user, no matter which group. Unfortunately not. Why?
[23:48] <Guest11388> yes squinty. It wont install with those insrtuctions in 14.04 live boot
[23:48] <JtRip> yes
[23:48] <Alanbitsch> JtRip: Ty
[23:49] <Jordan_U> Alanbitsch: It depends on what you mean specifically by "make a backup", and "work". Any documents and other stand alone files will of course be fine, and 95% of user settings copied from your home directory in 13.04 will also probably work in 14.04 if copied back to the new home directory, but system wide settings are stored in /etc/ rather than /home/, and can't simply be all copied from your 13.04 install to your ...
[23:49] <Jordan_U> ... 14.04 install.
[23:49] <ph0x> I need help with wpa_supplicant
[23:50] <squinty> Guest11388:  then your courses of action are to make a separate Boot-Repair DVD/usb or use the instructions on the page.   all the information you need to repair your system is contained in that tutorial.
[23:50] <ph0x> i get CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=(0s here) reason=3
[23:50] <Guest11388> okay.
[23:50] <Jordan_U> Guest11388: Did you see my request for boot info script output?
[23:50] <ph0x> authentication timed out
[23:51] <squinty> Guest11388:   you could also check out Rescatux (supergrub 2) but it also uses boot-repair these days.
[23:51] <dc46> ph0x, did you try mac cloning?
[23:51] <Guest11388> Jordan_U, I need to run t. hang on a sec
[23:52] <ph0x> dc46: why would i need to?
[23:52] <Jordan_U> ph0x: Why are you using wpa_supplicant directly?
[23:52] <ph0x> if i tell you, you will send me to #ubuntu-server and its dead in there
[23:52] <ph0x> :(
[23:52] <ph0x> im trying to build a computer that will boot into openbox and connect to wii
[23:52] <ph0x> wifi
[23:53] <ph0x> when i start it up
[23:53] <squinty> catch 22
[23:53] <ph0x> so i can run vlc and play videos
[23:53] <Jordan_U> ph0x: No, server questions are perfectly fine in #ubuntu. It's just that #ubuntu-server often has more people familiar with server administration subjects.
[23:53] <dc46> ph0x: because there was a bug in Network Manager related to wpa_supplicant, that won't allow mac cloning,,
[23:53] <ph0x> its a little cart i push around
[23:53] <ph0x> i cant get the wireless to work at all
[23:53] <ph0x> been woking for 24 hours
[23:53] <ph0x> i want to cry
[23:53] <Jordan_U> ph0x: Can you use network-manager or ifupdown to connect?
[23:54] <ph0x> network manager works
[23:54] <ph0x> but
[23:54] <ph0x> i have to disconnect from the wii
[23:54] <ph0x> wifi
[23:54] <ph0x> then econnect to it
[23:54] <ph0x> for it to work
[23:54] <ph0x> at first it SAYS connected
[23:54] <ph0x> but it wont connect to anything
[23:54] <ph0x> then i disconnect and reconnect
[23:54] <ph0x> and it works
[23:54] <squinty> ph0x:  please stop using your return key for punctuation
[23:54] <ph0x> squinty: do you pay by the line?
[23:55] <ph0x> send me the bill
[23:55] <Ben64> ph0x: you're flooding the channel with many unnecessary lines, put all the information on one line and explain your issue thoroughly
[23:55] <ph0x> Ben64: that was a much nicer what to put that
[23:55] <squinty> ph0x:  try reading the channel rules  and lose the attitude
[23:55] <ph0x> squinty: you irst
[23:55] <Guest11388> Jordan_U, Output here http://pastebin.com/ehaSu9Mi
[23:55] <ph0x> first
[23:56] <ph0x> you are disparaging me, which is against freenode rules
[23:56] <ph0x> :/
[23:56] <Pici> Lets move on, please.
[23:56] <Guest11388> ignore sdb. it's the licve run
[23:57] <ph0x> does anyone have ANY idea what the problem could be
[23:57] <ph0x> have to disconnect and reconnect to wifi before i can connect to anything, even local addesses
[23:58] <dc46> ph0x: (noob suggestion) is your ip config okey? I mean the DHCP or Static IP.
[23:58] <Jordan_U> ph0x: Please pastebin the output of "dmesg" after the initial (failed) connection, then again after re-connecting.
[23:58] <ph0x> my router runs a DHCP server
[23:58] <ph0x> Jordan_U: I have already removed  network_manager
[23:59] <ph0x> i actually reformatted my entire system
[23:59] <ph0x> and tried again
