| Maltahl | ZZRMike yes i tried with the normal user on the server. but when it asks for the password it says: 80:localhost:80@myip's password | 00:00 |

| Maltahl | ZZRMike i have root for the server so if you have any ideas how to fix this, i would be very grateful | 00:03 |
| === Guest63527 is now known as Pesinn | ||
| Pesinn | How can I gain write access to /var/lib/gems? - I am trying to install compass | 00:04 |
| ZZRMike | Maltahl: I'm honestly not even sure what you're trying to do, I just took a shot in the dark in hopes that I could get you moving in the right direction. | 00:06 |
| Maltahl | okay ZZRMike i tried changing the command so it was "sudo ssh -M username@ip" instead of "sudo ssh -M username@ip -l 80:localhost:80" and then my password worked | 00:07 |
| Maltahl | so for some reason i cannot create an SSH Tunnel | 00:07 |
| ZZRMike | Maltahl: Is sshd listening on port 80 on the server? | 00:08 |
| Maltahl | nah default | 00:09 |
| ZZRMike | Give "sudo ssh -M username@ip -l 80:localhost:22" a go? | 00:09 |
| Maltahl | same deal :( 80:localhost:22@10.0.6.52's password: Permission denied, please try again. 80:localhost:22@10.0.6.52's password: | 00:10 |
| greenman | Hi. Could use some help | 00:11 |
| ZZRMike | oh whoops, try "-L" not "-l" | 00:11 |
| greenman | I recently did an apt-get update upgrade | 00:11 |
| greenman | My machine wouldn't boot after restart | 00:11 |
| ZZRMike | if you check the man page for ssh it shows that -l specifies the user to log in as, -L specifies the port to use | 00:11 |
| greenman | I finally got it to boot by going into failsafe, then booting normally | 00:11 |
| greenman | (I'll investigate that later) | 00:11 |
| greenman | But now, my HFS formatted external drive refuses to mount read/write | 00:12 |
| greenman | which makes, well a lot of the stuff this server does kinda pointless... | 00:12 |
| DemonJester | Hey guys, I was wondering if there is a command I can use to get current power consumption on my usb devices? I use lsusb -v | egrep "^Bus|MaxPower" to see obviously max draw, but is there a way to see current draw. | 00:12 |
| Maltahl | Ahhh ZZRMIKE that makes so much more sense gonna try it out | 00:12 |
| Maltahl | It works ZZRMike !! | 00:13 |
| Maltahl | Thanks! | 00:13 |
| Maltahl | i switched out -l with -L | 00:13 |
| greenman | Anybody have any clues as to what I can look for? | 00:13 |
| ZZRMike | Yeah, that definitely wasn't helping you. I'm glad you got it sorted out. It always helps me to double check the help info to make sure I'm using the right flag. | 00:14 |
| BarnacleBob | greenman, what does it say when you try to mount it? | 00:15 |
| HHG | Hi, I have a problem when installing ubuntu version 14.04.1 from a usb drive. when i am installing a screen comes up with the title:'installation type'. the list on it is empty, and if i click install now it says no root file system is defined. if i click anything else the launcher crashes. Also, i am a new user, and i dont understand technical terms very well. | 00:15 |
| greenman | BarnacleBob: mount: warning: /media/BigDrive seems to be mounted read-only. | 00:16 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: How did you create the USB drive? | 00:16 |
| azizLIGHT | How come there's no alternate iso for 14.04? | 00:16 |
| azizLIGHT | The text mode install | 00:16 |
| HHG | linux live usb creator. i have used it once to install linux on another computer, and it worked then | 00:17 |
| BarnacleBob | greenman, mount -o remount,rw /media/BigDrive | 00:17 |
| wil114m | - buffer | 00:17 |
| almamaa | k | 00:17 |
| BarnacleBob | greenman, you should look through your dmesg/syslog to find out why it mounted readonly on boot tho | 00:17 |
| almamaa | hi | 00:17 |
| nano | help to install broadcom drivers for a dell d430 uubuntu 14.04 | 00:17 |
| fancyfetus | ZZRMike, what do you think of the Yoga 2 Pro? | 00:18 |
| daftykins | nano: which broadcom? | 00:18 |
| daftykins | !broadcom | nano | 00:18 |
| ubottu | nano: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 00:18 |
| fancyfetus | I'm not really fan of this new "convertible" or "multi-use" laptop fad going around right now | 00:18 |
| nano | correct | 00:18 |
| greenman | BarnacleBob: yeah, I tried that, same message. I'll check logs | 00:18 |
| greenman | it just sucks that it was working before... :( | 00:18 |
| BarnacleBob | greenman, i expect it wants a filesystem check or something | 00:18 |
| nano | taking time to load | 00:19 |
| greenman | hmm... | 00:19 |
| greenman | I do believe you are right. | 00:19 |
| Maltahl | ZZRMike it works with connecting but it times out the connection when i try to use it in my browser as a SOCKS proxy | 00:19 |
| BarnacleBob | greenman, just try unmounting it and doing an fsck_hfs on it | 00:19 |
| nano | daftykins | bcm43** | 00:20 |
| daftykins | nano: see abve then | 00:20 |
| OerHeks | greenman, do not mount hfs+ drives read/write, unless you disable journaling ( and you don't want that) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/hfsplus | 00:20 |
| ZZRMike | fancyfetus: I've seen it and I'm not particularly fond of the whole "3/4" thing they've going on with the display range of motion. I've also heard bad things in general about Lenovos hinges and subsequent support on that. | 00:21 |
| nano | very new at linux. tried a few things but none have work. right now the system has no internet | 00:21 |
| nano | so far the page is not loading | 00:21 |
| fancyfetus | ZZRMike, grrr. I'm looking for something ~1299 hat is <2cm thick and has a 256GB SSD with an at least 1080p screen. | 00:22 |
| greenman | BarnacleBob: hmm.. i didn't unmount it and it said it was fine, so I unmounted it and now it says: fsck_hfs: Volume is journaled. No checking performed. | 00:22 |
| greenman | fsck_hfs: Use the -f option to force checking. | 00:22 |
| ZZRMike | Maltahl: You're beyond me at this point, have you looked at this http://straightedgelinux.com/blog/howto/socks.html ? | 00:22 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: also, it has no OS | 00:22 |
| greenman | OerHeks: unfortunately, I don't have a chance until I can get a loaner HD from someone | 00:22 |
| Maltahl | ZZRMike no but i was using this tuto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iwm2jbjnO88 | 00:22 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: I've never used that application, have you tried using a different image or usb installer? Are you making it on windows? | 00:23 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: i am making it on windows, and i tried doing it manually, but that didnt boot | 00:24 |
| mmazing2 | i know burning isos to usb is supposedly extremely easy, but i always manage to fuck it up, over the weekend was trying to burn kali linux on xubuntu, unetbootin and startup disk creator both yielded unbootable usb sticks, what is everyone's preferred way to "burn" a bootable usb ?? | 00:24 |
| Avryn | HHG - have you seen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 00:24 |
| Avryn | few other things to try in there... | 00:24 |
| mmazing2 | two birds with one stone ffs | 00:25 |
| Avryn | although amusingly the first one it lists is in fact what you tried - i usually use unetbootin | 00:25 |
| Avryn | hahahah | 00:25 |
| HHG | Avryn: yes, it mentioned using linux live. | 00:25 |
| somsip_a | !text | 00:25 |
| ubottu | To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 00:25 |
| nano | daftykings. any other? I am trying to get a more detailed setup from a USB becasue i have no CD drive | 00:25 |
| greenman | woohoo, read/write! | 00:26 |
| greenman | thanks! | 00:26 |
| mmazing2 | yumi-multiboot is amazing and always works for me, but i couldn't install from the usb drive since debian couldn't find the "cdrom" | 00:26 |
| ZZRMike | Maltahl: I would take a look at the link I sent ,it's fairly short and may prove to be an easier approach. | 00:26 |
| daftykins | nano: none of what you just said makes sense | 00:26 |
| Maltahl | ZZRMike yeah i noticed. its pretty good. only problem is that i get stuck after typing the password for the server. it just hangs | 00:26 |
| nano | meaning. I am trying to get a better article to install the drivers via USB | 00:27 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: Have you tried using universal usb installer? That's what I've used and had fairly good luck with. | 00:27 |
| nano | thought you were following me | 00:27 |
| mmazing2 | dd is sure as hell not my preferred way to make a bootable usb | 00:28 |
| mmazing2 | dd cost me around 2500 dollars last time i screwed up | 00:28 |
| mmazing2 | maybe more | 00:29 |
| Avryn | mmazing2 - on windows when nothing else works my fallback has always been http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ | 00:29 |
| Avryn | although i usually have to re-partition the usb stick from linux after using that... | 00:29 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: The usb drive worked installing one computer. using a second time, this screen came up that didnt on the first computer. Also, this screen is part of the linux install, so i dont think its the usb creator. | 00:29 |
| mmazing2 | Avryn: i don't use windows :( just linux flavors | 00:29 |
| Maltahl | hmm | 00:29 |
| Avryn | mmazing2 must be nice! I'm a windows sysadmin for the most part by day... so its a bit unavoidable | 00:30 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: So you wrote the image to the USB and tried it on two computers and one didn't work? Or did you write the image for each computer? | 00:30 |
| === Schnabel- is now known as Schnabeltierchen | ||
| mmazing2 | Avryn: nearly everyone else at my office uses windows, but i refuse, it infuriates me so much every time i have to do anything in it | 00:30 |
| daftykins | nano: what i don't understand is when you bring a CD drive into this | 00:30 |
| ZZRMike | Maltahl: Did you try supplying -L to the command in that howto? I can't imagine that will make much of a difference but I suppose it's worth a go. | 00:30 |
| mmazing2 | Avryn: and not just my bitter hatred of microsoft, actually *using* windows is a terrible experience | 00:31 |
| nano | ok daftykins thanks sir. | 00:31 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: yes, i tried it on two computers with one time writing the image. also, the computers are similar. | 00:31 |
| daftykins | this is not a channel for general chat, take your windows talk to another channel. | 00:31 |
| nano | becasue that is what I saw on the article | 00:31 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: Can you use the USB to boot the installer on the first computer? I'm wondering if there wasn't some corruption that happened along the way. | 00:31 |
| mmazing2 | nano: why are you thanking him, he didn't answer your question at all | 00:31 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: the installer boots on both computers. the problem is, this screen, 'Installation type', comes up. | 00:33 |
| daftykins | nano: i was helping but you gave up, ok no worries | 00:33 |
| nano | mmazing2. being sarcastic | 00:34 |
| nano | great help daftykins | 00:35 |
| Maltahl | ZZRMike no luck it still hangs. it even hangs with the old command. It connects fine via putty and also tells me on the terminal if the password was wrong. but if i enter now the right password it just hangs forever | 00:35 |
| daftykins | nano: yeah i'm not a substitute for google. drop the attitude. | 00:35 |
| nano | lol | 00:35 |
| nano | did not ask you to be | 00:35 |
| Myzza | hola | 00:36 |
| mmazing2 | sooo, back to bootable usb drives, i've been making them for years and still have no idea why it fails sometimes. if i have a drive that i know *can* be bootable, and *has* been bootable with various distros on a particular computer, and sometimes unetbootin works (rarely in my experience), sometimes DD works, sometimes (insert other tool name) works, nothing ever seems to be consistent | 00:37 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: this might be of help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2151755 | 00:38 |
| mmazing2 | what gives, #ubuntu | 00:38 |
| pavlos | mmazing, always used unetbootin, never had an issue | 00:39 |
| mmazing2 | pavlos: in windows or linux? | 00:39 |
| daftykins | mmazing2: you might want to stop buying rubbish cheap drives :) | 00:39 |
| pavlos | mmazing, linux | 00:39 |
| mmazing2 | daftykins: i would agree, except the latest failure is on a drive that i know for certain works | 00:39 |
| nano | mmazing2, have you tried: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ | 00:40 |
| daftykins | mmazing2: right but that doesn't rule out reliability | 00:40 |
| CharlieTheCabbie | any news on the bash loophole yet dudes? | 00:40 |
| daftykins | there has been plenty of news, including multiple patch releases | 00:41 |
| daftykins | !usn | 00:41 |
| ubottu | Please see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn for information about Ubuntu security updates. | 00:41 |
| daftykins | naturally only LTSs are getting patched. | 00:41 |
| CharlieTheCabbie | Is Tahr an LTS? | 00:41 |
| ObrienDave | yes | 00:41 |
| mmazing2 | nano: yes, i use yumi-multiboot regularly, and it always seems to work, i think mainly because of their bootloader | 00:41 |
| Maltahl | ZZRMike im an idiot... its not hanging its just connected and stays connected until i stop it | 00:42 |
| somsip_a | !ppa-purge | 00:42 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 00:42 |
| mmazing2 | nano: but the problem with yumi is that you can't install from it sometimes | 00:42 |
| mmazing2 | nano: or at least i couldn't figure it out the other day | 00:42 |
| nano | ahh | 00:42 |
| ZZRMike | Maltahl hah! We've all been *there* before, no worries. Were you able to get your browser working with it? | 00:42 |
| Maltahl | Yeah using foxyproxy to connect to it :) | 00:42 |
| nano | see im very new to this | 00:42 |
| nano | just trying to find my way | 00:42 |
| Maltahl | gonna test it with my phones connection instead sitting locally | 00:43 |
| mmazing2 | daftykins: maybe i need to dd the drive several times and see if the data matches up properly | 00:43 |
| michael_j_p | I'm running 12.04 on an Intel Core 2 Duo (about 2.8ghz). Will upgrading to 14.04 lts slow me down ? | 00:43 |
| reisio | michael_j_p: why would it | 00:43 |
| daftykins | mmazing2: format it as FAT then dd perhaps, presuming your ISOs are md5'd and known good | 00:43 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: This is the same problem i am having, but there is no answers on the page there is no solutions. | 00:43 |
| mmazing2 | daftykins: although, this isn't just with one drive, i have like 5-6 that aren't the cheapest drives in the world and just doesn't work sometimes | 00:43 |
| daftykins | mmazing2: oh well. | 00:43 |
| pavlos | michael_j_p, I upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 on a duo -- did not see slowdown | 00:44 |
| mmazing2 | daftykins: yeah, i've checked the md5s, i don't really care if i get *the answer* to this right now, just trying to have a discussion | 00:44 |

| bus | Hi guys, I am having a hard time with Ubuntu getting VMware tools to install. I was on the Vmware irc and they told me to come here. Can someone help me please? I'm a noob and have been at this for hours. | 00:44 |
| mmazing2 | daftykins: how often do people come in here asking about creating a bootable usb disk? | 00:45 |
| daftykins | i never bother installing tools. | 00:45 |
| mmazing2 | daftykins: seems relevant to me | 00:45 |
| daftykins | mmazing2: we always get them running, we don't have chats about the pros and cons of one drive and do the topic to death | 00:45 |
| lxf_ | i have lost my network icon from the main menu on 12.04 can anyone offer any help how to get it back | 00:45 |
| mmazing2 | daftykins: we've been talking about this for approximately 8 minutes, not quite done to death yet | 00:46 |
| daftykins | mmazing2: arguing the policy in this channel is a sure fire way to get ignored, anyway good luck. | 00:47 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: Can you boot into "try ubuntu"? Have you tried zeroing out the drive? | 00:47 |
| reisio | bus: what's the trouble | 00:47 |
| bus | reisio, I followed all of the instructions from vmware, then when it told me to reboot all these checks started coming up saying [OK] but then the machine was frozen with a flashing _ | 00:48 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: yes i can boot that. i just stuck the usb drive in my windows computer and it said something is wrong with the drive. im re extracting the iso onto it. | 00:49 |
| reisio | bus: and? | 00:49 |
| bus | reisio, I was not able to press anything until I randomly hit the right arrow key, then Ubuntu started to load the interface, but it was frozen loading, so I rebooted then it came to the desktop | 00:49 |
| reisio | bus: so... all good? | 00:49 |
| bus | reisio, then it tells me to install vmware tools again....so I have been trying but it tells me the directories are not there when following the instructions but it shows it mounted | 00:49 |
| bus | reisio, I am not sure...I do not know how to tell if it is working correclty | 00:49 |
| daftykins | share more detail about what you mean by "it tells me..." | 00:50 |
| michael_j_p | ok. I think I'll upgrade to 14.04 lts. How long does it take to do so on say a 50 speed download | 00:50 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: now that i think about it, i just pulled the drive out of the first computer i installed linux on. Maybe this corrupted it? | 00:50 |
| === Sir_Lestaty is now known as Dumbledore | ||
| reisio | if you're not sure how to tell if it's working correctly, then you don't even need it | 00:50 |
| daftykins | michael_j_p: 50 what? 50 apples per second? | 00:50 |
| daftykins | michael_j_p: ultimately if your system is working, don't bother. | 00:51 |
| diddledan | daftykins: 50 speeds - like oomphs. | 00:51 |
| diddledan | :-p | 00:51 |
| bus | resio, then how do I make my dispays resolution 4k? | 00:51 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: That's why I asked if you just used the one copy for both computers. Since you're already rewriting it, I'd give that a go. If that doesn't work I would try booting into "try ubuntu" and try to format the drive from there, THEN try to install it. | 00:51 |
| tafa2 | does anyone here use jq? I've got trouble pulling something out of an array... | 00:51 |
| azizLIGHT | Anyone want to help me install a encrypted / and swap that uses 1 passphrase? The guide I found makes you use 2 passphrases, one for each partition | 00:54 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: ok, that didnt work. How do i format the drive using try ubuntu? | 00:54 |
| tafa2 | azizLIGHT why not whole disk encryption? | 00:55 |
| bus | daftykins it says dir does not exist | 00:55 |

| carlos_ | hola estoy probando ubuntu | 00:55 |
| daftykins | bus: although i'm concerned about your intended goal. why on earth are you trying to get a VM running at 4K? | 00:56 |

| ubottu | carlos_: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 00:56 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: Boot into try ubuntu, then http://askubuntu.com/questions/476589/format-disk-in-14-04 I don't know off hand as I use Kubuntu exclusively at this point, so I couldn't find my way around Unity to save my life. | 00:56 |
| carlos_ | no hablo ingles | 00:56 |
| bus | daftykins ok I will get a pastebin together for you. well my new computer is a 4k monitor, so I was trying to get the resolotion of ubuntu to run the same settings as my host | 00:56 |
| daftykins | bus: what do you VM? | 00:57 |
| azizLIGHT | tafa2: because I'm dual boot | 00:57 |
| bus | daftykins what do you mean? | 00:57 |
| daftykins | bus: what is the purpose you VM ubuntu? | 00:58 |
| quietone | hi, I can't boot to ubuntu on an lvm encrypted partition (Debian Jessie laptop). grub returns "premature end of file on file /boot/vmlinuz ..." | 00:58 |
| bus | daftykins for a development platform, I am learning to program | 00:58 |
| bus | daftykins and learning to use terminal for one of my classes | 00:59 |
| GJdan | azizLIGHT: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Encrypted_Root_Filesystem | 00:59 |
| azizLIGHT | Hm ok | 00:59 |
| GJdan | archwiki is good resource for most linux distros | 00:59 |
| daftykins | bus: you should SSH into the VM from your host OS. | 00:59 |
| azizLIGHT | I was hoping it could be done via the installer gui | 00:59 |
| quietone | searching for solutions hasn't helped much. if you know where I should be reading, please tell me | 00:59 |
| azizLIGHT | Oh well | 00:59 |
| GJdan | most things aren't done with installer gui in linux | 01:00 |
| cgili | u can use aptitude | 01:00 |
| cgili | it's an ncurses gui | 01:00 |
| cgili | to instal/deinstall/reinstall software | 01:00 |
| cgili | i use it to admin my servers | 01:01 |
| bus | daftykins windows command prompt can connect to ubuntu> | 01:01 |
| daftykins | bus: no you download PuTTY / KiTTY | 01:01 |
| cgili | PuTTY is better | 01:01 |
| daftykins | no it's not | 01:01 |
| bus | and then I have to install everything through there? | 01:01 |
| cgili | for win i mean.. i rather linux ssh command | 01:02 |
| GJdan | oh no wonder there's linux questions, this is #ubuntu, ha. (I got lost) | 01:02 |
| cgili | together with sshpass | 01:02 |
| daftykins | cgili: KiTTY is a forked project from PuTTY with URL parsing and other improvements :) | 01:02 |
| cgili | and gossh | 01:02 |
| cgili | are cool yopu don't even have to remember the password to your servers | 01:02 |
| daftykins | bus: ... think of SSH like remote cmd | 01:02 |
| bus | daftykins here you go, I typed 'mount /media/VMware Tools' then it returns 'only root can do that' | 01:03 |
| gkatsev | hey, any ideas why chrome would just always keep crashing the tab ("aw, snap" page). I used to have a problem where I didn't have enough file descriptors but I increased them and still have an issue. | 01:03 |
| HHG | ZZRMike: thank you so much. this worked. thanks for spending so much time helping me with this. | 01:03 |
| daftykins | bus: you need to prefix the command with "sudo" but that is not a full command | 01:03 |
| cgili | he he... not if you access as 'root' | 01:03 |
| daftykins | bus: if you selected to install Tools, the disc should already be inserted (virtually) | 01:03 |
| bus | daftykins I believe it is mounted, I can click it and see the contents | 01:03 |
| daftykins | cgili: we do not condone running as root in here, please don't mislead users into doing so | 01:04 |
| ZZRMike | HHG: Reformatting the disk helped? | 01:04 |
| daftykins | bus: so there's no need to mount. it's already mounted | 01:04 |
| cgili | ok | 01:04 |

| cgili | or "developpers" one? | 01:07 |
| daftykins | bus: yes it will be, so now you need to browse onto the disc contents via the terminal, by changing to its' mounted path (look at 'df -h' 's output and run "cd /path/to/CD" | 01:07 |

| gkatsev | hey, what's the best way to diagnose issues with browser chrases? I previously had issues with firefox crashing and did a fresh install and it's crashing again for the same reasons. At first increasing ulimit -n helped (at least with chrome) but still getting same crashes now. Could it be my hardware getting old or something (it's from 2009)? | 01:20 |

| gkatsev | I guess I should also look for my other HDD firmware updates but I guess the SSD is most important. | 01:34 |
| daftykins | gkatsev: you don't do HDD firmware like you do SSD firmware :) | 01:35 |
| gkatsev | yeah | 01:35 |

| navetz | hey can someone help me figure out how to disable ubuntu behaviour of using the alt key | 01:36 |
| Tam5 | Would anyone happen to know of Free Software that I could use to 1. OCR a billion or so PDF files, then 2. Organize those files by search keyword? For example I would use a keyword like say , "GNU Linux" and it would pull up all the pdf files that contain "GNU Linux" in the pdf somewhere. I could then take those files and put them into a directory | 01:36 |
| Tam5 | * ##linux :Cannot send to channel | 01:36 |
| gkatsev | daftykins: once I update the firmware, my next step would be to run memtest? | 01:36 |
| navetz | i disabled the hud, but now where I press something like alt + s it opens the search menu for xchat | 01:36 |
| navetz | i don't want alt to be mapped to anything | 01:36 |
| daftykins | gkatsev: make sure you read the firmware update carefully, i have no idea if it'll be a destructive update (wipes the drive) or not. i'd image the SSD up to an HDD as a backup just in case. yep, i'd move onto memtest then resume kicking the tires on my browsers. | 01:37 |
| bus | daftykins: I guess you are right...now a screen popped up again asking me to install vmware tools..sigh | 01:37 |
| gkatsev | daftykins: cool, thanks for your help. | 01:37 |
| daftykins | np | 01:38 |
| gkatsev | daftykins: also, I don't really care if it's a destructive update. I keep my data and OS separate. | 01:38 |
| gkatsev | but I'll be careful | 01:39 |
| daftykins | :) | 01:39 |
| daftykins | good stuff | 01:39 |
| gkatsev | for some reason though, I haven't gotten in the habit of having ~/ be on a separate drive/partition, though. | 01:39 |

| war10ck | hello | 01:39 |
| gkatsev | but all my dotfiles are on github, so, it's easy to start up again :) | 01:39 |
| daftykins | gkatsev: the best SSD combo is to have the entire OS install on the SSD, then symlink media folders in ~/ to your mechanical storage, e.g. ~/Music -> HDD | 01:40 |
| === PsiOmega is now known as AlphaBeta | ||
| gkatsev | yep,thats what i have | 01:41 |
| daftykins | gkatsev: that way dot folders stay on the SSD and benefit from the speed improvements | 01:41 |

| OerHeks | Nosophorus, maybe your videocard/driver is the bottleneck | 01:50 |
| Nosophorus | daftykins: I haven't tried that. Do you think there will be any chances of this problem vanishing after memtest? | 01:50 |
| daftykins | Nosophorus: memtest is diagnostic, it does not fix bad RAM | 01:51 |

| Kwaku | hey, I keep trying to open things in gedit using the gui or with Bluefish and both programs freeze. This also happens when I try to save sometimes. | 02:40 |

| lakitu | hi, i am helping my disabled ex-neighbor get a screencast to video minecraft on his new kubuntu machine. he is not allowed internet (stupid grouphome), so he has to download e.g. Kazam (http://pkgs.org/ubuntu-12.04/ubuntu-universe-i386/kazam_1.0.6-0ubuntu1_all.deb.html) onto a sd card or whatever, & trasnfer it to computer | 02:56 |
| lakitu | to his offline kubuntu desktop | 02:56 |
| bus | daftykins sorry I did not hear the sound notification I will do the fdisk right now | 02:56 |

| daftykins | bus: i really don't know why parted isn't running for you, perhaps your system is EFI capable but it hasn't booted in EFI mode. | 03:02 |
| Erto | I have got a bad sector on my HDD. Currently running ubuntu 14.04 . Do I have to get a new HDD right now? | 03:02 |
| daftykins | Erto: wasn't i talking to you earlier and didn't i tell you exactly what to do? | 03:03 |
| Erto | daftykins I lost some messages from you due to a blackout last night... | 03:03 |
| Erto | sorry | 03:03 |
| bus | daftykins weird...I really do not know myself. so is it a good thing that fdisk can read it? | 03:03 |
| daftykins | bus: well kinda, but as it says it thinks it sees sda is GPT | 03:04 |
| eeee | bus: confirm with gdisk | 03:04 |
| daftykins | Erto: backup, use the HDD manufacturer's software to zero fill the disk (or zero fill it with 'dd') then restore your data. if the disk is in warranty though, just RMA it | 03:05 |
| bus | eeee how do I do that sudo gdisk -l ? | 03:05 |

| Erto | daftykins: If I do nothing, the bad sectors will increase and any data i write may be lost? | 03:07 |
| eeee | bus: yeah it should kill the program | 03:07 |
| Erto | right? | 03:07 |
| bus | eeee ok done. | 03:07 |
| daftykins | Erto: they might, iirc your bad sector is in 'pending' and hasn't been reallocated yet. | 03:07 |

| casteador | the first time i install i use internet but give the same problem | 03:22 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: thanks but doesn't seem to have the information I wanted. I guess my question was too general. Wanted an overview of features and how to use them. Also, what the output in the display means. How to read it, etc | 03:22 |

| Snake2k | Humans | 03:28 |

| casteador | lotuspsychje: this is a laptop | 03:28 |
| eeee | does it mention legacy mode anywhere? | 03:29 |
| lotuspsychje | casteador: how about you disable intel crad in bios, and reinstall ubuntu with cable | 03:29 |
| lotuspsychje | casteador: see if ubuntu chooses correct nvidia driver automatic | 03:29 |
| casteador | lotuspsychje: ok i will try thanks | 03:29 |

| bus | eeee I went through all the menus I can't find anything else..weird | 03:31 |
| ghosTM55 | hi all | 03:31 |
| casteador | lotuspsychje: but the drivers for nvidia is more easy install not ? | 03:32 |
| eeee | bus: ok i guess uefi is enabled | 03:32 |
| bus | eeee very odd | 03:33 |
| eeee | bus: boot the liveusb, if there's a tiny man at the bottom it means it's either booting in legacy mode, or it's a 32bit iso | 03:33 |
| bus | I did download the 64bit | 03:34 |
| eeee | ( it's 64bit though right? ) | 03:34 |
| eeee | ok | 03:34 |
| bus | but ok, I will try | 03:34 |
| bus | eeee no tiny man, it asks me to try/install/oem install/check for defects | 03:35 |
| lotuspsychje | for all those who are interested: developers have released RTM version of ubuntu-touch, and still need all the help they can for more info: #ubuntu-touch | 03:35 |
| eeee | bus: ok | 03:35 |
| jjacklin | Good Morning, just a quick question as google isnt being very helpful. Is there a way to view what packages need installing on an update without carrying it out. | 03:36 |
| Aaraigathor | I get this error on boot: "Error: diskfilter writes are not supported. Press any key to continue..." then it continues to boot normally. I found the fix online, it is at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=754921 I do not understand how to apply this fix, what do I do? Thanks | 03:36 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 754921 in grub-common "[PATCH] grub-mkconfig: Disable recordfail on non-writable LVM or RAID partitions" [Important,Open] | 03:36 |
| jjacklin | would apt-get --no-act upgrade do this? | 03:39 |
| bus | eeee - should I go back into ubuntu or do I need to fix the partition in windows? | 03:39 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: sudo apt-get upgrade --assume-no | 03:40 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: It should say no to the upgrades, -y for insta-yes lol | 03:40 |
| eeee | bus: usually it's supposed to contain a gpt partition + a protective mbr ( so that fdisk doesn't think that there's free space it can use ) | 03:40 |
| Bashing-om | jjacklin: There is the option to decline the upgrade prior to pressing 'y' . The advisory of what the package manager will do is given. | 03:40 |
| bus | I partitioned the 20gb as fat32, that is wrong right? | 03:40 |
| eeee | bus: i guess that's fine, as in i dont think it's causing the problem | 03:41 |
| bus | eeee; really, wow, ok. | 03:41 |
| eeee | bus: you can't install ubuntu on it, but it won't cause parted to not see anything | 03:42 |
| eeee | bus: try to see stuff from windows | 03:42 |
| jjacklin | yeah I assumed that however I have read that sometimes apt-get upgrade does not query whether you want to commence with the installation or not. I was worried because I dont actually want to run the updates yet as I am scheduling them for one of our engineers | 03:42 |
| bus | eeee: ok I will boot back into windows | 03:42 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: --assume-no will force a no, so it definitely won't hit the upgrade | 03:43 |
| bus | eeee - I have my c drive which is nfts healthy, then ubuntu 15gb fat 32 healthy | 03:44 |
| jjacklin | cool thank you Snake2k | 03:45 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: Np | 03:45 |
| eeee | bus: if you want you can delete the 15gb fat32 | 03:45 |
| eeee | if you have no data on it | 03:45 |
| jjacklin | Snake2k, just to clarify am I putting in the command like this sudo apt-get upgrade --assume-no | 03:45 |
| bus | eeee: deleted, no there is no data I just made it when I got on here so I could install ubuntu | 03:46 |
| eeee | bus: does it mention anything to do with gpt or mbr ? | 03:46 |
| bus | it says 14.65 gb unallocated now | 03:46 |
| jjacklin | I have ssh'd into this via terminal and just tried to run command however I recieved an error so just wanted to make sure that I have entered it correctly | 03:46 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: Yep, you can try it and see if that's what you're looking for | 03:46 |
| jjacklin | see I recieve back Command line option --assume-no is not understood | 03:46 |
| bus | eeee: no nothing about gpt or mbr | 03:47 |
| eeee | ok | 03:47 |
| eeee | try to boot into ubuntu | 03:47 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: That's weird, I'd try it right now but my system is updated | 03:47 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: I tried it but it didn't give me "that" error | 03:47 |
| bus | eeee: just leave the 15gb partition unallocated? alright | 03:48 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8463221/ | 03:48 |
| eeee | bus: yeah | 03:48 |
| bus | eeee: alright, install ubuntu not try right? | 03:49 |
| eeee | no, try ubuntu | 03:49 |
| eeee | then sudo parted -l | 03:50 |
| eeee | if parted can't see anything most likely the installer wont | 03:50 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: There is also the "--dry-run" flag | 03:50 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: so "sudo apt-get upgrade --dry-run" | 03:50 |
| eeee | bus: wait a sec, in the windows partition, did you see a bunch of partitions? | 03:51 |
| jjacklin | yeah that worked, cool thank you. Its not registering any updates at the moment so nothing to schedule | 03:51 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: "-s, --simulate, --just-print, --dry-run, --recon, --no-act" anyone of those | 03:51 |
| eeee | as in a first EFI partition ? (fat32) and others? | 03:51 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: Awesome np | 03:51 |
| jjacklin | with the dry run does it just kind of run it in a pretend mode then | 03:51 |
| eeee | or you literally meant a ntfs partition and the ubuntu one? | 03:51 |
| gkatsev | hm... seems like memtest is saying Pass: 0, Errors: 78848, 90% through a single pass. | 03:51 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: I think it just goes through without caring about the input, it just prints and does nothing, dry run | 03:51 |
| bus | eeee: I rebooted to the usb. But yes it literally said NFTS for my windows partition then FAT32 for the ubuntu partition | 03:52 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: I'm just reading the man page for the flags lol | 03:52 |
| gkatsev | daftykins: thats probably bad, right? :P | 03:52 |
| eeee | bus: if you're using uefi, you should have a fat32 efi partition | 03:52 |
| jjacklin | cool thank you, learn something new everyday lol | 03:53 |
| bus | eeee; I understand what you are saying, but it did not say that in the properties | 03:53 |
| eeee | bus: that's quite odd, if you are using mbr, and you have left over gpt data it would cause ubuntu to not see partitions correctly | 03:54 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: The beauty of Linux Distributions! lol | 03:54 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: Np :) | 03:54 |
| bus | eeee; I am not sure of what then, should I go back to windows and examine further? | 03:55 |
| bus | eeee: quite frankly I am wishing I still had a solid os x machine, never had such frustration installing a guest os before | 03:55 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: still there? | 03:56 |
| eeee | bus: you can check in windows if the disk options are set to dynamic | 03:56 |
| gkatsev | yes | 03:56 |
| eeee | and if any options indicate if it's using mbr or gpt | 03:56 |
| eeee | if it's using mbr, then all you have to do is remove the stray gpt data | 03:56 |
| bus | alright back to windows I get | 03:57 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: I am. | 03:57 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: your memory is borked, or possibly your motherboard. memtest is pretty much go/no go. Either you get a clean run, or you get errors. | 03:58 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: ok. Thanks. What step should I take next? | 03:58 |
| bus | eeee: it literally says nothing else other than the storage properties and the drive name in disk utility | 03:58 |
| gkatsev | for example, to see whether mobo is still good | 03:58 |
| eeee | bus: open a command prompt | 03:58 |
| eeee | type diskpart | 03:59 |
| jjacklin | Snake2k, thats interesting just ssh'd into a different ubuntu server and used the --assume-no flag and worked perfectly | 03:59 |
| bus | actially my mistake, for "type" it says basic | 03:59 |
| jjacklin | just a server being a douche lol | 03:59 |
| bus | eeee; ok one sec | 03:59 |
| bus | eeee: opened | 03:59 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: change each RAM stick in turn until the error goes away. I think you can identify which bank is bad from the memtest output, but you'll have to rtfm for that. | 04:00 |
| eeee | ok type list | 04:00 |
| Snake2k | jjacklin: Lmao probably | 04:00 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: ah, so, if memtest returns error for only one slot with any memory, it means the mobo is bad (perhaps in addition to memory)? | 04:00 |
| bus | eeee: ok few options, disk, partition, volume, vdisk | 04:01 |
| eeee | type disk | 04:01 |
| eeee | list disk | 04:01 |
| RustyShackleford | how do you swap caps and escape in unity? | 04:01 |
| bus | eeee: disk 0 online 232gb free 14gb / disk 1 online 7980 mb free 0gb | 04:02 |
| eeee | under GPT does it say anything ? | 04:03 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: that's the idea. But a bad mobo is less common and much more hassle, so we change ram first. What model mobo, what model ram? | 04:03 |
| eeee | that's your usb btw | 04:03 |
| eeee | nevermind, i mean disk1 | 04:03 |
| eeee | does it say anything under gpt for disk 0? | 04:04 |
| bus | DYN and GPT have no values | 04:04 |
| eeee | ok, i found something on google | 04:04 |
| bus | for both ssd and my usb | 04:04 |
| eeee | go back to the disk utility | 04:04 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: looking | 04:04 |
| bus | ok | 04:04 |
| eeee | right click on the disk | 04:05 |
| eeee | select properties | 04:05 |
| eeee | check the partition style | 04:05 |
| bus | done | 04:05 |
| bus | MBR | 04:05 |
| eeee | ok | 04:05 |
| eeee | then i guess you're using MBR | 04:05 |
| eeee | and you need to remove the stray gpt data | 04:05 |
| bus | this is for the 15gb partition | 04:05 |
| eeee | hrm | 04:06 |
| eeee | it should be for the whole disk | 04:06 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: ASUS P7P55D LGA 1156 Intel P55 ATX Intel and CORSAIR XMS3 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMX8GX3M2B1600C9 | 04:06 |
| eeee | try clicking on the first partition if you want | 04:07 |
| bus | eeee: when I right click properties for the 15b there is a Volumes tab that tells me it is MBR, when I go to my main partition of windows, there is no volumes tab | 04:07 |
| eeee | it should say the same | 04:07 |
| eeee | ok, this is what i found on google However, if you go into Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management, select the Disk Management screen, right-click on the disk part (little box on the left, not the volume part) of the picture of the drive, and select Properties, you can read the "Partition Style" | 04:08 |
| bus | eeee: MBR | 04:10 |
| eeee | ok | 04:10 |
| eeee | great | 04:10 |
| eeee | boot into ubuntu | 04:10 |
| bus | eeee: install ubuntu or try? | 04:11 |
| eeee | try | 04:11 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: I see one hit on google where the guy has a similar setup to yours and notes that corsair is not on the QVL. You've tried each 4GB module in slot 1, presumably? | 04:11 |
| bus | eeee: ok it is loaded | 04:12 |
| gkatsev | Nope. | 04:12 |
| eeee | ok | 04:12 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: ok, try a single 4GB module in slot 1. Run memtest overnight. | 04:13 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: ok. What should I look for in the morning? | 04:13 |
| eeee | bus: type sudo fixparts /dev/sda | 04:14 |
| eeee | that should search for stray gpt and remove it | 04:14 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: You want zero errors. Anything else is bad. If it's clean, your mobo and 4GB unit are good. If it's not, repeat with the other 4GB module. | 04:14 |
| bus | eeee; it asks me to delete them that is ok then | 04:14 |
| eeee | yeah | 04:14 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: Then why would I get a bunch of errors in a general test? | 04:15 |
| bus | says warning 0xEE partition doesn't start on sector 1 this can cause problems with some os's, MBR command: | 04:15 |
| eeee | it's ok | 04:15 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: memtest writes patterns to memory & reads them back again. If they don't match, it's an error... | 04:16 |
| eeee | don't change it | 04:16 |
| bus | what do I do just press enter? it's asking for an input | 04:16 |
| eeee | press w i think | 04:16 |
| eeee | or h for help | 04:16 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: you already have errors. We're trying to narrow it down to a particular piece of RAM, or your mobo. | 04:17 |
| eeee | bus: you mean the warning? | 04:17 |
| bus | eeee: i think so | 04:17 |
| eeee | press enter | 04:17 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: oh, I see, I misread what you meant. | 04:17 |
| bus | when I press enter it just says MBR command (? for help): | 04:17 |
| eeee | ok | 04:18 |
| eeee | press ? | 04:18 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: you meant that particular stick is good and the mobo is good. Then I can look to see if any other sticks are bad. | 04:18 |
| eeee | if there's a write to disk, | 04:18 |
| eeee | press the command | 04:18 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: what if they all end up coming up bad? | 04:18 |
| bus | gives me commands for toggle the active boot flag, recompute all chs values, set partition as logical, etc. | 04:18 |
| eeee | is there a write to disk? | 04:18 |
| bus | yes, W is write the MBR partition table to disk and exit | 04:19 |
| eeee | ok, press w | 04:19 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: then it's probably the mobo. Depending on prices, you might decide to beg/borrow a known good RAM card to make absolutely sure. | 04:19 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: any history on this system? Did it ever work? | 04:20 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: I may have my old RAM sticks still, since I upgraded to these later on. | 04:20 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: yep, been working for 2 years | 04:20 |
| gkatsev | the mobo is from 2009 | 04:20 |
| bus | ok it is done eeee | 04:20 |
| eeee | ok, great | 04:21 |
| eeee | try to reboot | 04:21 |
| bus | to windows or just back to ubuntu | 04:21 |
| eeee | check if windows is still there :P | 04:21 |
| bus | omfg | 04:21 |
| eeee | and then boot the live cd | 04:21 |
| bus | lol ok | 04:21 |
| eeee | lol, i'm j/k :) | 04:21 |
| bus | I hope so hahaha | 04:21 |
| bus | ok so don't reboot then? | 04:21 |
| bus | XD | 04:21 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: ok, so you know what to do for now? | 04:21 |
| eeee | lol, no reboot | 04:21 |
| eeee | i mean, reboot | 04:22 |
| bus | ok thank god windows is still there lol | 04:22 |
| eeee | and do check windows, it wont harm, just incase | 04:22 |
| eeee | ok, good | 04:22 |
| bus | it is there | 04:22 |
| bus | back to linux? | 04:22 |
| eeee | boot the live cd | 04:22 |
| eeee | yup | 04:22 |
| bus | live cd meaning the installer this time? | 04:23 |
| eeee | yeah | 04:23 |
| eeee | installer should see the partition now | 04:23 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: I think so. Run each stick through memtest. If all fail, try a known working RAM stick. Otherwise, probably mobo is busted in addition to RAM | 04:23 |
| bus | before the options came up it said cannot see header | 04:23 |
| bus | then it loads | 04:23 |
| eeee | where? | 04:23 |
| bus | just after my Asus logo for bios | 04:24 |
| eeee | weird | 04:24 |
| eeee | did it do that the first time you rebooted ? without the livecd? | 04:24 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: can I ping you tomorrow if I have more questions? | 04:24 |
| bus | only when it was booting to theu sb | 04:25 |
| bus | usb, not windows | 04:25 |
| gkatsev | (in here) | 04:25 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: of course. I'm usually on about this time. | 04:25 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: alright, thanks! :D | 04:25 |
| eeee | ok | 04:25 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest89076 | ||
| eeee | bus: it's not a big deal i guess | 04:26 |
| bus | eeee; it seems to be frozen at the preparation stage where you select to download updates while installing | 04:26 |
| bus | I can move aroudn with the keyboard but the mouse is just spinning | 04:27 |
| eeee | bus: hmm | 04:27 |
| eeee | did it see the partitions yet | 04:27 |
| eeee | bus: try to exit the installer | 04:28 |
| eeee | then sudo parted -l | 04:28 |
| bus | eeee: it won't exit the installer, it allows me to pull up the window but when I press quit nothing happens, the cursor just keeps spinning | 04:29 |
| eeee | ok reboot | 04:29 |
| eeee | try ubuntu | 04:29 |
| eeee | i think cause you're using mbr and booting in uefi it would be a problem | 04:30 |
| bus | alright I had to just use the reboot button | 04:30 |
| bus | failed image | 04:31 |
| bus | failed to load header | 04:31 |
| bus | then it goes to the grub options | 04:31 |
| eeee | i think the image got corrupt | 04:31 |
| bus | there were a few more lines but couldnt catch them all in time | 04:31 |
| eeee | i think you'll have to make the live usb again | 04:32 |
| eeee | did you checksum the iso before writing it btw ? | 04:32 |
| bus | no I did not | 04:33 |
| bus | its virtually unusuable now | 04:33 |
| bus | the keyboard shortcuts window is frozen ontop of the installer | 04:33 |
| bus | lol | 04:33 |
| eeee | heh | 04:34 |
| bus | ok so boot back to windows and recreate this usb isntaller? | 04:34 |
| eeee | yup | 04:35 |
| bus | ok | 04:35 |
| eeee | if you feel like checksumming you can use this i guess http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11533 | 04:36 |
| eeee | never tried it though | 04:36 |
| bus | I think the iso was ok, it worked for virtual box | 04:36 |
| eeee | ok | 04:36 |
| eeee | what im thinking about is how is this going to work | 04:37 |
| eeee | if the bios is set to uefi | 04:37 |
| eeee | and you are using mbr for windows | 04:37 |
| eeee | and ubuntu installer is loading in uefi | 04:38 |
| eeee | it'll try to install grub-efi | 04:38 |
| eeee | but there's no efi partition | 04:38 |
| eeee | unless your bios is set to uefi | 04:39 |
| eeee | i mean mbr | 04:39 |
| bus | so do you think the technician from canada computers installed the wrong version | 04:39 |
| bus | I am using the installer should I format the usb too? | 04:39 |
| eeee | i think it was a uefi/gpt machine | 04:39 |
| eeee | and he installed windows without efi/mbr | 04:39 |
| bus | http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows | 04:40 |
| bus | I guess I should format it since it has the old one on there right? | 04:40 |
| eeee | efi/ with mbr | 04:40 |
| bus | there is no way to specify that with the usb installer | 04:40 |
| eeee | yeah you could format it | 04:41 |
| eeee | in step 3 it says format | 04:41 |
| Akayllin | hey guys i have a problem trying to compile glibc-2.20 on ubuntu 14.04. it keeps failing at elf/tst-xmmymm :\ I don't know how to fix it but I need to install it for the header files for other programs | 04:42 |
| bus | ok it is writing the information to disk | 04:42 |
| Akayllin | any advice? | 04:43 |
| bus | eeee: don't remember it taking this long before, says 7 hours remaing wtf? lol! | 04:44 |
| eeee | lol | 04:45 |
| bus | now its gone up to 8 hours wtf? | 04:45 |
| bus | it was literally 20 seconds the first time | 04:45 |
| eeee | ok | 04:45 |
| eeee | hold on | 04:45 |
| bus | 10hours haha , alright | 04:45 |
| eeee | cancel it | 04:45 |
| bus | done | 04:46 |
| bus | now its gone to the first installer and says done | 04:46 |
| bus | lol | 04:46 |
| stangeland | wauw.... the dist upgrade worked flawlessly :) kudos to ubuntu folks | 04:47 |
| Akayllin | is there anyway to get a compiled version of glibc that i can just install to the system without having to compile? | 04:47 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: hm... either I'm putting the memory in the wrong slot or my machine won't boot with only one of the sticks inside. | 04:48 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: apparently it was a wrong slot. Apparently slot 1 is labeled B1 on my mobo | 04:49 |
| gkatsev | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 04:49 |
| stangeland | Akayllin, what is glibc used for ? | 04:50 |
| eeee | bus: still there? | 04:51 |
| bus | eeee: yessir | 04:52 |
| eeee | sorry, i got dc | 04:52 |
| bus | no problem, i canceled that long part and the original installer says complete | 04:52 |
| guideX | I heard there's a way to get ubuntu 14 with gnome2, is it true? | 04:53 |
| bus | eeee: should i try to go back to the installer with this or do we have to do it again? | 04:54 |
| Akayllin | strangeland: it is the c library headers basically | 04:56 |
| eeee | bus: did the liveusb finish? | 04:57 |
| bus | yea | 04:58 |
| eeee | ok try to boot it | 04:58 |
| eeee | and click on try ubuntu | 04:58 |
| bus | ok | 04:58 |
| bus | eeee: ok I am clicking the something else button for installation type | 05:01 |
| eeee | ok | 05:01 |

| __unik | Is there any Linux viruses ? | 05:02 |
| bus | now it shows everythinf properly, sd1 367mb sda2 234gb and freespace 15gb | 05:02 |
| zenlike | __unik, yes, you can write one yourself if you want :) | 05:02 |
| bus | eeee; so freespace 15gb is obviously what we want I can install now there right | 05:02 |
| eeee | zenlike: you'd have to put them in the /etc/rc?.d/ | 05:02 |
| eeee | zenlike: put them in your ~/.profile | 05:03 |
| zenlike | eeee, oh, what's the difference between then? | 05:03 |
| zenlike | will ~/.profile run on start even if a terminal isn't opened? | 05:03 |
| eeee | yeah it will | 05:03 |
| eeee | it will run right after you login via lightdm | 05:04 |
| __unik | zenlike: I have never heard about viruses in Linux. Haven't been fixing problem occurred by viruses in linux, too | 05:04 |
| __unik | either | 05:04 |
| eeee | bus: yeah | 05:04 |
| bus | eeee; no root file system defined please fix this from the partitioning menu | 05:04 |
| eeee | bus: click on the freespace and press on the + | 05:04 |
| eeee | format to ext4, mount at "/" | 05:04 |
| bus | ah ok | 05:05 |
| eeee | (assuming you don't want a swap partition) | 05:05 |
| zenlike | __unik, Sure, they're more rare, but naturally there are viruses, rootkits, etc. on every OS | 05:05 |
| bus | mount point is greyed out for me | 05:05 |
| eeee | what are the options before it | 05:05 |
| eeee | did you select ext4? | 05:05 |
| bus | type = logical, location beginning, use as ext4 journaling | 05:06 |
| eeee | make the type primary | 05:06 |

| eeee | if you have low RAM it's useful, and it's also required if you want to use hibernation ( you'd have to make a swap partition as big as your RAM and a bit more ) | 05:09 |
| bipul | I hope Virtualbox version 4.3.10 is the latest version. | 05:09 |
| bus | I have 16gb ram DDR3 do you think it is necissary | 05:09 |
| gkatsev | Loshki: looks like only one of my RAM sticks is bad. At least, one got errors instantly and one got no errors for a while. Going to run the "good" one overnite and also buy a new set of RAM. | 05:09 |
| eeee | no it's not | 05:09 |
| eeee | unless you want to hibernate | 05:10 |
| Loshki | gkatsev: here's hoping... | 05:10 |

| eeee | bus: why is it sda3 ? | 05:10 |

| bus | yes I am not sure but when I was reading up on windows because it was a digital download from the microsoft store they install the recovery files i think | 05:12 |
| eeee | bus: i thought you said windows disk manage said theres only ntfs? | 05:12 |
| eeee | bus: that 360mb sounds like an efi partition... | 05:12 |

| eeee | maybe caps lock is pressed? | 05:21 |
| eeee | or numlock or something | 05:21 |
| bus | man I am certain I didn't make a type like I typed them both and it verified | 05:21 |
| eeee | cause you have to type the pass twice | 05:21 |
| eeee | yeah | 05:21 |
| bus | OMG caps lock | 05:21 |
| bus | gg | 05:21 |
| eeee | did grub show up when you booted? | 05:22 |

| taaviz | Hi, Im using kubuntu 14.04. The problem i am facing is that whenever i minimize my windows to tray, the tray dissapeeaars | 07:46 |
| ikonia | kimse: and now /etc/nsswitch.conf | 07:46 |
| kimse | http://pastebin.com/35EPxEvn | 07:47 |

| taaviz | anyone? | 07:49 |
| ikonia | kimse: perfect | 07:49 |
| aul | Is it good or bad to create symlinks to your home folder, so that you can edit files, that apache2 for example needs, with a custom user? | 07:49 |
| ikonia | taaviz: saying "anyone" is pointless | 07:49 |
| taaviz | Yeah i pretty much assumed that, but my problem is really simple | 07:50 |
| kimse | ikonia: works now! | 07:50 |
| ikonia | aul: doesn't seem a good idea, doesn't seem "bad" but just seems to be a bit sloppy | 07:50 |
| ikonia | kimse: ok, so change it to "files dns" | 07:50 |
| taaviz | Ive used ubuntu 100 times i just forgot how to enable trays back | 07:50 |
| ikonia | kimse: as in "hosts files dns" | 07:50 |
| kimse | ikonia: still works | 07:51 |

I can get rid of it by exiting the graphical environment (ctrl+alt+f6) and re-entering with ctrl+alt+f7. It is quite annoying though and I'm not sure how to solve this problem.

| knosys | they say: No!! dont do it, its bad!! | 08:48 |
| knosys | but there are the instructions to do it | 08:49 |
| knosys | so i guess there is some reason why people do it | 08:49 |
| knosys | i wonder why, and if i should remove them too | 08:49 |
| |\n | you primary goal is to disable one of them, will you remove it or not - on your choice, until packages list each other as conflicting ones, so thos howto reasonably mentiones `apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau` | 08:49 |
| hateball | knosys: you have a gui to do all of this | 08:50 |
| |\n | in general, next stage is doing what is written in there or getting nvidia-current package installed | 08:50 |

| barath | Hi I really need help, yesterday I installed Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 14.04 but now my desktop is ghosting and moving slow please help I tried to remove it been search the web for help since yesterday but no luck as of yet. | 10:25 |
| nomic | maybe re-install | 10:26 |
| nomic | or just remove iwth apt-get? | 10:26 |
| nomic | or remove package how you installed it | 10:26 |
| barath | I've tried to but no luck desktop is still ghosting | 10:26 |
| nomic | i would re-install | 10:27 |
| nomic | cos you've screwed the window manager | 10:27 |
| Monotoko | Yeah... this is why Gnome3 isn't recommended with unity | 10:27 |
| nomic | rather than figure out how to reset your system to normality | 10:27 |
| adriennbox | the command for get cursor on ubuntu 14.04 is "sudo mod probe -rv psmouse" then "sudo modprobe -v psmouse" | 10:27 |
| nomic | better to start with blank slate (reinstall) | 10:27 |
| barath | @nomic I am not great with terminal would you be so kind to help guide me through an clean install | 10:27 |
| nomic | ????? you need a live disk | 10:27 |
| nomic | or a live usb | 10:27 |
| Monotoko | barath: put a disk in... | 10:28 |
| nomic | to install -- installation is obvious | 10:28 |
| nomic | you need to reboot | 10:28 |
| barath | shall I download ubuntu 14.04 to a cd or dvd | 10:28 |
| nomic | f9 to get selection of boot from cd or usb | 10:28 |
| nomic | etc | 10:28 |
| nomic | yes | 10:28 |
| nomic | 14.04 will only fit on a dvd | 10:28 |
| nomic | now | 10:28 |
| Monotoko | barath: how did you get Ubuntu on your system in the first place> | 10:28 |
| Monotoko | *? | 10:28 |
| nomic | bbl | 10:28 |
| barath | I had an earlier vision by CD then just upgraded | 10:29 |
| barath | will I need to back up all my files | 10:29 |
| Monotoko | you should have backups anyway | 10:29 |
| Monotoko | >.> | 10:29 |
| nomic | files? | 10:30 |
| nomic | there are plenty of methodologies for backing up your files | 10:30 |
| nomic | I would use either a cd or a usb key | 10:30 |
| nomic | preferably a cd | 10:30 |
| nomic | always check that the files have written to the media (read them back) | 10:30 |
| barath | I have used backup but their is nearly 700Gb of media which will take a long time to put back on. | 10:31 |
| barath | will the CD let me repair or will I need fresh install | 10:32 |
| Monotoko | fresh install | 10:32 |
| barath | :( ok thank you | 10:32 |
| Monotoko | you could change your partition layout when you do it | 10:33 |
| Monotoko | leave your old one (shrink it) | 10:33 |
| Monotoko | then install the new one alongside it | 10:33 |
| Monotoko | that way you have your files... but if the partitioner screws up they're gone | 10:33 |

| adriennbox | hello everyone, i want to execute command when ubuntu 14.04 boot | 10:56 |
| adriennbox | how can i do so? | 10:56 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: depends when you want to execute it during the boot | 10:57 |
| adriennbox | hmm | 10:57 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko after i enter the user password | 10:58 |
| george___ | What is that thing with [Act: 1,2] at ht e bottom | 10:58 |
| george___ | 2 | 10:58 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: in that case you can do it from the GUI | 10:59 |
| Monotoko | find the "Startup Applications" in the menu | 10:59 |
| george___ | clear | 10:59 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko startup applications? | 10:59 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko but i want to execute these command when ubuntu start, because im tired of type them everytime i boot | 11:00 |
| k1l | adriennbox: what commands? | 11:00 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: If you add them to the startup items they will start after you login (type your password) | 11:00 |
| OerHeks | adriennbox, there is a diff between "when ubuntu boots" and "after login" | 11:01 |
| adriennbox | MonotoOerHeks ah yes you're right, so after login | 11:01 |
| adriennbox | OerHerks ah yes you're right, so after login | 11:01 |
| === 17SAAFHEU is now known as smllmp | ||
| === smllmp is now known as samuell_ | ||
| Monotoko | adriennbox: so add it to "Startup Applications" which will start things as your user after you login | 11:02 |
| adriennbox | k1l "sudo modprob -rv ps mouse" "sudo modprobe -v psmouse" and "sudo modprobe -v ath5k" | 11:02 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i dont want to start applications, i want to execute command | 11:03 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: add those to a .sh script | 11:03 |
| Monotoko | and just put that script in as an application | 11:03 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko a .sh script? can i do it with text editor? | 11:03 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: yeah | 11:03 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i make a .sh file then tell me how to execute after login | 11:04 |
| Monotoko | it's just a script with .sh after it... you'll need the hashbang (#!/bin/bash) | 11:04 |
| Monotoko | at the top | 11:04 |
| Monotoko | and you'll need to make it executable from the properties | 11:04 |
| Monotoko | now just go into "Startup Applications" click "Add" and for command choose "Browse" and browse to your .sh file | 11:05 |
| atomx | in which file should I add a call of xmodmap that initializes the keyboard ? | 11:06 |
| george__ | How do i disconect myself ? | 11:06 |
| Monotoko | george__: from IRC? | 11:06 |
| Monotoko | from the internet? | 11:06 |
| Monotoko | from the world? | 11:06 |
| george__ | yes | 11:06 |

| OerHeks | ph88, that would be a OSX theme, unsuitable for ubuntu i guess | 11:21 |
| ph88 | OerHeks: yes how can i make it a ubuntu theme | 11:22 |
| OerHeks | ph88, don't know, not sure that is possible? | 11:23 |

| knosys | Guys, im trying to create a launcher. I made the item with a text editor, and saved it name.desktop. I gave +x permissions to it. now with ls -l i can see this: -rwxr-xr-x | 11:24 |
| knosys | but i cant Run it. What i am doing wrong? | 11:24 |
| ph88 | OerHeks: you don't think ubuntu can have colors in the terminal ? | 11:24 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: good luck! | 11:24 |
| Ben64 | ph88: find a unity/gnome/kde/lxde/xfce theme, depending on what you're running | 11:24 |
| OerHeks | ph88, sure ubuntu can, but you cannot put a apple thing in ubuntu and expect it to work | 11:25 |
| ph88 | Ben64: gnome 3 | 11:25 |
| Ben64 | ph88: yeah so find one for that | 11:25 |
| Ben64 | knosys: how are you trying to run it | 11:26 |
| knosys | By double click | 11:26 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko it dont work :( the commands didnt run after i login... | 11:27 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko where is the problem? | 11:27 |
| ph88 | Ben64: i would like exactly this theme | 11:27 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i did startup program and choes the .sh but it dont do nothing :( | 11:27 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: did you set the script to be executable? | 11:27 |
| knosys | Ben64: By double clicking on it. Why? | 11:27 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko yes, i chosed "allow executing file as program" | 11:28 |
| Ben64 | knosys: pastebin the contents of the file | 11:28 |

| adriennbox | Monotoko ok | 11:29 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i was on terminal and type "boot.sh" but "command not found" | 11:29 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: where is boot.sh? | 11:30 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko on the desktop | 11:30 |
| Monotoko | you'll need go to that directory | 11:30 |
| Monotoko | "cd ./Desktop" | 11:30 |
| Monotoko | then "./boot.sh" | 11:30 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i did! | 11:30 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ? ./boot.sh ? ok | 11:30 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: your desktop isn't in your environment... you'll need to run ./ so it knows where to look | 11:30 |
| knosys | Ben64: There http://paste.ubuntu.com/8465409/ | 11:31 |
| Monotoko | so yeah, ./boot.sh | 11:31 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko allright the script is runned but what about the startup applications? | 11:31 |
| Ben64 | knosys: why are you using that with sudo | 11:32 |
| knosys | its an mmorpg | 11:32 |
| knosys | if i dont use sudo it closes | 11:32 |
| knosys | automatically | 11:32 |
| knosys | dont know why | 11:32 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: interesting.... try to add "sleep 10" to the top of the script (after the #!/bin/bash) so it waits 10 seconds after you log in | 11:32 |
| Ben64 | knosys: you should solve that problem. running java as root is a bad idea | 11:32 |
| knosys | i m ean from terminal... i must run that .jar with sudo... otherwise it close itself | 11:33 |
| Monotoko | Ben64: depends if it's an old mmorpg | 11:33 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko now i reboot | 11:33 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: yupp | 11:33 |
| Ben64 | knosys: also, mixing sudo with graphical applications is a Bad Idea™ | 11:33 |
| Ben64 | Monotoko: its java though | 11:34 |
| Monotoko | make sure it's ticked in srtartup applications | 11:34 |
| Monotoko | to actually run | 11:34 |

| adriennbox | Monotoko oh ok, but why my commands sudo modprobe -rv psmouse dont work? | 11:44 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: ah... | 11:44 |
| Monotoko | sudo | 11:44 |
| Monotoko | there are two approches here | 11:44 |
| adriennbox | ? | 11:44 |
| Monotoko | we can run it from somewhere else as root... or we can allow your user to run modprobe without a password | 11:44 |
| OerHeks | ResupineEarth, intall ubuntu, start dejadup and put the backup back? | 11:45 |
| OerHeks | and reboot, i guess | 11:45 |
| Monotoko | second option is probably easiest | 11:45 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ok, so how to do so? | 11:45 |
| ResupineEarth | oh ok does that mean copying all the backup files in deja-dup folder and then simply putting it back in # | 11:45 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: run visudo from the terminal | 11:46 |

| ResupineEarth | thanks oerheks | 11:46 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko it work | 11:46 |

| Monotoko | adriennbox: without | 11:49 |
| adriennbox | ok | 11:49 |
| Monotoko | just so you know... your user can now use modprobe (but nothing else) as root without a password - so the script can work without a password | 11:49 |

| creature | Hello. Ubuntu has *completely* stopped acknowledging my "Alt" key. It still shows up as an Alt_L in xev, though. I am baffled, as I don't think I've changed anything. Help? | 12:01 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ok | 12:01 |
| creature | I have tried turning it off and on again. | 12:01 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko then? | 12:01 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: run "EDITOR=/usr/bin/nano visudo" | 12:02 |
| Monotoko | sorry | 12:02 |
| Monotoko | "sudo EDITOR=/usr/bin/nano visudo" | 12:02 |
| * Monotoko is too used to being given root on his servers | 12:02 | |
| adriennbox | ok | 12:03 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: go that line to the bottom (is it already there?) | 12:03 |
| * eeee is curious why visudo is being opened with vi in the first place | 12:03 | |
| adriennbox | Monotoko nope, the text isnt there | 12:03 |
| Monotoko | eeee: I forgot you could use environment variables | 12:03 |
| eeee | in ubuntu it's default nano | 12:04 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: readd it | 12:04 |
| Monotoko | then I believe it's Ctrl+Q (together) and yes to save | 12:04 |
| eeee | Monotoko: no i mean, sudo visudo would open in nano, not vi | 12:04 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ok | 12:04 |
| Monotoko | eeee: maybe he did open with nano originally and I thought it was vi? :s | 12:04 |
| eeee | lol | 12:04 |
| eeee | adriennbox: is it the same editor as before? | 12:05 |
| Monotoko | :| | 12:05 |
| === gnu is now known as Guest41788 | ||
| adriennbox | Monotoko ctrl+Q dont work! | 12:07 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko so how to save it? | 12:07 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: sorry... ctrl+x | 12:07 |
| Monotoko | I haven't used nano for a while :P | 12:08 |
| BluesKaj | adriennbox, ctl+o, enter then ctl+x | 12:08 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i did it | 12:08 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: great, sorry that took so long on account of me :P | 12:08 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: go to your script and run it | 12:09 |
| Monotoko | you shouldn | 12:09 |
| Monotoko | *shouldn't be asked for your password | 12:09 |
| adriennbox | Blueskaj crlt+o isnt neded the file was save with ctrl+x | 12:10 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: yeah, it will confirm with you before closing | 12:10 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko and now the script will work? | 12:10 |
| BluesKaj | adriennbox, that sequence has always been successful for me | 12:11 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i reboot now | 12:11 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: good luck | 12:11 |
| Monotoko | BluesKaj's method works too | 12:11 |
| Monotoko | it's just a save and close in two steps | 12:11 |
| Monotoko | I prefer one | 12:11 |
| Monotoko | but his is probably safer :P[6~ | 12:11 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko oh ok | 12:11 |
| * BluesKaj shrugs ...to each his/her own | 12:12 | |
| adriennbox | Monotoko it dont work :( still nothing happened :( | 12:13 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: try running the script manually again | 12:13 |
| Monotoko | does it ask for your password? | 12:13 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ok | 12:13 |
| ukzz | Is there on channel someone who talk in polish lang? | 12:13 |
| eeee | !poland | ukzz | 12:14 |
| ubottu | ukzz: Na tym kanale używamy tylko języka angielskiego. Możesz uzyskać pomoc w języku polskim na #ubuntu-pl. | 12:14 |
| ukzz | !poland | 12:14 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko no it dont ask me password, so where is the problem? | 12:14 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: as far as I know... there shouldn't be a problem | 12:14 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko u dont know where is problem? damn | 12:15 |
| eeee | adriennbox: what's going on? | 12:15 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: run "ls /tmp | grep test.txt" | 12:15 |
| adriennbox | return: test.txt | 12:16 |
| Monotoko | eeee: he's trying to get a script to run on his login... he has the script, it's executable and it touches a file in /tmp called test.txt after running the other commands (just to make sure it runs) | 12:16 |
| adriennbox | eeee i try to run commands in a script when ubuntu start but nother happen | 12:16 |
| eeee | adriennbox: where are you putting these commands? | 12:16 |
| eeee | and what do they do | 12:17 |
| Monotoko | eeee: so we know the script runs... we know he can run it manually | 12:17 |
| adriennbox | on a .sh file in the dektop | 12:17 |
| eeee | adriennbox: no i mean how are you getting them to run? | 12:17 |
| Monotoko | eeee: I told him to use the startup apps gui in Ubuntu | 12:17 |
| adriennbox | eeee with startup applications | 12:17 |
| eeee | ok | 12:17 |
| eeee | does it need root privileges? | 12:17 |
| adriennbox | eeee yes but no more now, we modify a file for prevent to ask password | 12:18 |
| Monotoko | eeee: it was using sudo for some modprobe commands... we added an entry into sudoers to allow modprobe to run without a password | 12:18 |
| eeee | ok, that's what i thought | 12:18 |
| Monotoko | I suppose the next thing to try would be to make the script run earlier | 12:19 |
| Monotoko | in the boot process | 12:19 |
| Monotoko | as root | 12:19 |
| eeee | if it doesn't need to start after login, you could add it to /etc/rc.local ( it runs as root ) | 12:19 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i have to put a sleep,? | 12:20 |
| eeee | ( i dont like the idea of a script in sudoers, it's a huge security hole ) | 12:20 |
| Monotoko | he did specify he wanted it to run after login... but I believe modprobe should work earlier | 12:20 |
| adriennbox | AAH! | 12:20 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko it ask me password again! so i think the problem is tehere | 12:20 |
| eeee | adriennbox: what did you add to sudoers? | 12:20 |
| adriennbox | eeee so we have to remove the need of a password | 12:21 |
| eeee | yes i know but what did you add there | 12:21 |
| Monotoko | and put: user_name ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/modprobe | 12:21 |
| eeee | type sudo -l | 12:21 |
| eeee | and paste the line you added | 12:21 |
| Monotoko | that's what I told him to add... with his username | 12:21 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko but the file was writed very well | 12:21 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: let's see what you added to the bottom? | 12:22 |
| Monotoko | make sure it's right | 12:22 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko with user_name ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/modprobe but still ask password | 12:22 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: you wanted to replace user_name | 12:22 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko Adrien ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/modprobe | 12:22 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i puted that | 12:22 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: with a capital A? | 12:22 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko yes | 12:22 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: usernames can't contain capital letters | 12:23 |
| eeee | type whoami | 12:23 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ooh | 12:23 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko so adrien without capital letter? | 12:23 |
| eeee | type whoami | 12:23 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: do what eeee said, that will show you your username | 12:23 |
| adriennbox | eeee my user name is adrien | 12:23 |
| adriennbox | eeee without capital letter | 12:23 |
| adriennbox | very well we found the problem | 12:24 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: once you have changed it and saved the file... type "whoami" into the termianl window | 12:24 |
| Monotoko | it will just confirm for us :) | 12:24 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i typed whoami, my user name is adrien | 12:24 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko without capital letter | 12:24 |
| Monotoko | awesome | 12:25 |
| Monotoko | so that's the problem | 12:25 |
| Monotoko | did you correct it? | 12:25 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko yes i did | 12:25 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: alright... moment of truth | 12:25 |
| Monotoko | reboot | 12:25 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko noo it still do nothing :( | 12:26 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko i will try if ask password still there | 12:26 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko yes, they still ask me a password | 12:26 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko so the problem is there | 12:26 |
| eeee | adriennbox: if you type the modprobe command | 12:27 |
| eeee | it asks you for a password? | 12:27 |
| cetex | so. i have an issue, ifup isn't setting interface lo to state "up" even though it should. (but when i run ifup --no-loopback it configures it properly) | 12:27 |
| cetex | any ideas? | 12:27 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: sorry I need to leave :( you should copy the script into pastebin and let someone guide you on how to add it to /etc/rc.d to try running it earlier | 12:27 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko aah the file wasnt change!! | 12:27 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko oh damnit | 12:27 |
| cetex | i guess it's a bug. | 12:27 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: quickly, change the file and reboot again! | 12:27 |
| Monotoko | :P | 12:27 |
| adriennbox | eeee and Monotoko in the file still a A capital letter | 12:27 |
| Monotoko | change it to lower case... and make sure it's saved | 12:27 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ctrl+x then close? | 12:28 |
| Monotoko | adriennbox: do the two step method | 12:28 |
| Monotoko | ctrl+s then ctrl+x | 12:28 |
| adriennbox | Monotoko ctrl+q then ctrl+x? | 12:28 |
| adriennbox | ok | 12:28 |

| knosys | Do you see necesary to install Lubuntu on this machine? : Intel celeron 2,7MHZ x2 , 4GB RAM DDR3, gforce g210, fsb its 1333 ? | 12:35 |

| Monotoko | sss_: g++? | 12:38 |
| sss_ | Monotoko: I mean after compiling, a.out is created. Which can be executed from ntfs partition | 12:39 |

| root____1 | Hello, can anyone suggest a easy to follow tutorial on ubuntu server firewall commands? Thanks in advance | 12:39 |
| cfhowlett | !ufw | 12:40 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 12:40 |
| knosys | BluesKaj: sorry i dont know what File indexer is. I though it could be a service, let me check how to see active services | 12:41 |
| === matthew is now known as Guest87193 | ||

| __unik | what? | 12:44 |
| __unik | don't ask to ask | 12:44 |
| __unik | go straight ahead | 12:44 |
| BluesKaj | knosys, ok , perhaps the new ubuntus don't use a file indexer, sorry I assumed they do, I;m on KDE so I naturally turn it off whenever I upgrade to a new release | 12:44 |

| Guest87193 | New to ubuntu, trying to use proprietary driver but games arent opening | 12:45 |
| Guest87193 | such as flightgear | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | knosys, you can use system monitor or top to check what's using resources | 12:45 |
| knosys | performance its really bad. My computer cost 200euro. the pc only, so i think its not very good. Celeron processor, and the graphic card its really bad.. gnome 14.04 its very attractive so... its possible i should switch to a lighter one | 12:46 |
| quantumpants | can anybody tell me how to get a full list of Terminal commands for 14.04 ?? | 12:46 |
| __unik | sss_ Compile and excute them in NTFS, that's easy | 12:46 |
| BluesKaj | Guest87193, games as in .exe/windows ? | 12:47 |
| philinux | Guest87193;~ which graphics card have you | 12:47 |
| sss_ | __unik: no, then output executable file (a.out) throws error on execution "./a.out" | 12:47 |
| sss_ | permission related error | 12:47 |
| Guest87193 | GTX 680. | 12:47 |
| geirha | sss_: then the filesystem is mounted with the noexec flag, meaning you cannot execute any files on that filesystem | 12:48 |
| philinux | Guest87193;~ have you installed a driver from system setting> software and updates? | 12:48 |
| sss_ | geirha: yes, what can I do to mount it to exec such that along side window faces no problem | 12:48 |
| geirha | sss_: It's been so long since I touched NTFS that I don't think it's wise for me to even guess. Why can't you just put the binary on a local ext4 filesystem and run it from there though? | 12:50 |
| sss_ | ok that I can do | 12:50 |
| Guest87193 | philinux, thats where I installed the proprietary driver yes | 12:51 |
| quantumpants | can anybody tell me how to fix my grub2 bug ??? | 12:52 |

| philinux | Guest87193;~ good ok, as BluesKaj said is flightgear a windows game i.e. a .exe file | 12:52 |

| philinux | Guest87193;~ not at all if it says its in use thats ok. did you rebboot after installing the driver | 12:55 |
| Guest87193 | No i didnt. | 12:55 |
| Guest87193 | I will try that | 12:55 |
| philinux | Guest87193;~ check in software and updates that it is in use | 12:56 |
| quantumpants | k1l well im told i have a bug that has been giving both my laptops trouble. i understand its all connected to Grub 2. i need to find the root cause | 12:56 |
| Guest87193 | Yes it is. ill restart | 12:57 |
| BluesKaj | Guest87193, I'm assuming you don't have Wine installed | 12:57 |
| Guest87193 | i dont | 12:57 |

| k1l | quantumpants: you need to specify that issues. there is nothing like "the grub bug". | 13:03 |
| k1l | quantumpants: and not charging sounds like some acpi missmatch. charging should be done by the bios at all. | 13:03 |

| === root is now known as Guest54812 | ||

| quantumpants | k1l ok, Ill come back on IRC later with a list of Issues, could it be one thing that is causing all the trouble? I ask as it all started to happen on both laptops around the same time? | 13:05 |
| k1l | quantumpants: pure guessing so far | 13:05 |
| quantumpants | k1l re dead battery, could that happen over night? | 13:06 |

| pinumbernumber | 14.04 Unity: How can I control the top panel with the keyboard? | 13:10 |
| smithzv | BluesKaj: I think you (and TJ-) were helping me last week trouble-shooting my MacBook Pro install which couldn't use the Nvidia drivers. With your help, I eventually figured it out and it is working now, it turns out that the issue was the boot method. If you boot with Apples non-standard EFI, the video cards are in a weird state, but if you boot in emulated BIOS mode (by holding option on boot and selecting the Ubuntu drive, how I | 13:11 |
| smithzv | have always run Ubuntu previous to Trusty), the video card works as it always has. So, thanks, and if it comes up again you can have people investigate this. | 13:11 |
| philinux | pinumbernumber;~ what do you want to do with top panel | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj | smithzv, thanks for the heads up, that UEFI certainly can muck things up even on macs :) | 13:12 |
| pinumbernumber | philinux, like, select and interactive with them with the keyboard. So I can shut down or interact with my CPU monitor, etc | 13:13 |

| CodeGosu | i use transmission as torrent client, unfortunaly it has guite a few issues, for example if files are changed/damaged on hard drive it wont enable you to simply rehash data as utorrent, you will have to download torrent file again. i have external usb drive, setting download location to it often lead to nothing after client restart, it just starts to load stuff on default partition. | 13:14 |
| pinumbernumber | philinux, okay but that was just an example really. There's no way to use the panel with they keyboard? | 13:14 |
| CodeGosu | is there uttorent like client for ubuntu? | 13:14 |
| pinumbernumber | CodeGosu, I recall Transmission handling that fine. Maybe try the move option? Alternatively, check out qBittorrent. | 13:15 |
| weirdcaveman | CodeGosu: use qbittorrent. | 13:16 |
| philinux | pinumbernumber;~ not sure what you want to do | 13:17 |

| somsip | Hardtail: I had this for a long time. 4 years actually. A new mouse sorted it. | 14:56 |
| Hardtail | somsip: It is a brand new mouse, but ok. | 14:56 |
| Rallias | Hardolaf: Plug it in somewhere you can reach easily? | 14:56 |
| cfhowlett | andy_wfc, apt-cache show packagenamehere gives useful info | 14:56 |
| Hardtail | Rallias: That is fine I guess, I can plug it into the front of the box. What is it though, just no driver support? | 14:56 |
| Snake2k | Hardtail: Different usb port maybe? | 14:56 |
| somsip | Hardtail: I think I did some early research and found it was a dongle that was not recognised and just got used to unplugging/replugging it. It died last weekend, and the one one is recognised fine. Nice surprise really | 14:57 |
| Hardtail | Snake2k: I tried both USB ports on the back of the machine and rebooted, still the same issue | 14:57 |

| Hardtail | Michael_ No it is a MadKatz Rat 5 gaming mouse. | 14:57 |
| Hardtail | Somsip: Yes there are 2 front usb ports I can use | 14:58 |
| Snake2k | Hardtail: Weird, well there is a fix to it..... you can write a startup script to unmount and mount the usb port lol | 14:58 |
| somsip | Hardtail: less than ideal, but maybe you'll learn to live with it if you don't find a solution | 14:58 |
| michael_ | It could be that the module is not being loaded at boot. | 14:58 |

| ROPA | hi all, I tried to use my ubuntu 14.04, and can't. It has a weird problem, When I try to run firefox or libre office, everything I type is interpreted as a command of some sort. So, I can't type into the google search box or enter a new url in firefox. Any ideas??? | 17:10 |
| HoNgOuRu | punkgeek, try sudo ip route add default via 192.168.1.1 | 17:10 |
| punkgeek | aha its works thank you | 17:11 |
| HoNgOuRu | ok | 17:11 |
| sid_ | k1l :update command http://paste.ubuntu.com/8467295/ | 17:11 |
| punkgeek | so now i should enter: apt-get install kde-workspace ? | 17:11 |
| HoNgOuRu | next time you reboot you should face the same problem | 17:11 |
| HoNgOuRu | so, are you connected now? | 17:11 |
| punkgeek | yes | 17:11 |
| k1l | sid_: "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 17:11 |
| HoNgOuRu | great! | 17:11 |
| sid_ | k1l :wait a min its running | 17:12 |
| Gregor3000 | well that doesn't make much sense | 17:13 |
| k1l | sid_: ok. in best case that already solved the issue | 17:13 |
| punkgeek | HoNgOuRu: try apt-get install kde-workspace ? | 17:13 |
| HoNgOuRu | I'm not sure about that | 17:13 |
| HoNgOuRu | punkgeek, what do you want to do ? | 17:13 |
| sid_ | k1l : Thank you so much for support , i'll get back if that problem still exist and i think it'll be taking more than 5 min to upgrade | 17:14 |

| HoNgOuRu | I am setting a web kiosk, I want only chrome and openbox, I created a script that runs chrome, but I want openbox to control chrome's window... how do I launch openbox and chrome from a script ??? | 17:16 |
| felon | i got it working... | 17:17 |
| punkgeek | HoNgOuRu: veru thank you ;-) | 17:18 |
| HoNgOuRu | punkgeek, you welcome... just try to persist the change | 17:18 |
| k1l | HoNgOuRu: i did that with another program some years back. put openbox to start with chromium fullscreen on startup and remove all the menu settings from openbox | 17:18 |
| sid_ | k1l : another problem i faced a lot is that , i am not able to go to other tabs (eg :: if terminal , chrome , movie are my present applications i am not able to get to other one using keyboard) . I click on alt+tab but its not working and i dont know why . Can you solve that | 17:18 |
| punkgeek | okay | 17:18 |
| HoNgOuRu | k1l, yeah, I disabled openbox popup menu, but my problem is that I cannot get both programs running at the same time from a script | 17:19 |
| HoNgOuRu | dont know why | 17:19 |
| HoNgOuRu | if I do openbox & chromium-browser then only openbox fullfill the screen and after closing it it runs chrome | 17:20 |
| k1l | HoNgOuRu: both programs? start openbox and that will start chromium | 17:20 |
| HoNgOuRu | k1l, I created a user, with an empty session... no lxde, just runs a script, in this script I call openbox and chromium | 17:21 |
| k1l | HoNgOuRu: openbox is not a "program" in that sort of way | 17:22 |
| HoNgOuRu | k1l, first I only executed chrome, but it didnt have any window bar, so I thought that If I run openbox it will wrap the chrome window | 17:22 |

| trism | killer: just using lightdm-gtk-greeter | 18:57 |
| iceroot | chris_99: latest = not tested very good, beta releases and so on | 18:58 |
| chris_99 | true, i'll try it anyway and report back | 18:58 |
| iceroot | chris_99: but for vga driver, yes sometimes its better to have the newest because of performance | 18:58 |
| iceroot | chris_99: sure, good luck | 18:58 |
| trism | killer: you can switch it back to unity-greeter or whatever other greeter you have installed in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf | 18:58 |
| killer | trism: I want the default login manager that ubuntu 14.04 shipped . Is it not lightdm ? | 18:59 |
| killer | I tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm | 19:00 |
| trism | killer: yes it is lightdm, but lightdm has several greeters (the login screen you actually see is drawn by the greeter) | 19:00 |
| trism | killer: default is unity-greeter, but you currently have lightdm-gtk-greeter which is default for xubuntu | 19:00 |
| trism | killer: switch back to unity-greeter by editing /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and changing lightdm-gtk-greeter to unity-greeter | 19:01 |
| trism | killer: assuming you didn't accidently remove unity-greeter, might want to: sudo apt-get install unity-greeter; too | 19:02 |
| Raver | are | 19:02 |
| killer | trism: No , but the file you pointed me to , is empty file \ | 19:02 |

| Quantumpants | My laptop will not charge, it does not seem to be a hardware issue, can anybody advise please??? | 19:08 |
| reisio | Quantumpants: why does it seem to not be a hardware issue? | 19:08 |
| Quantumpants | <reisio> the battery was fine one day and did not charge the next, the laptop is also getting alot of error codes etc... | 19:10 |
| miq-w | How can 'not charging' Not be a hardware issue? | 19:10 |
| reisio | Quantumpants: I see no reason to think that isn't a hardware problem | 19:11 |
| miq-w | How old is the battery? | 19:11 |
| reisio | Quantumpants: if you call the support line for the manufacturer, they can tell you how to distinguish definitively if it's hardware or not | 19:11 |
| Quantumpants | <reisio> oddly it all started with another load of problems | 19:12 |
| reisio | like what? | 19:12 |
| Quantumpants | I have a netbook and a laptop running 14.04 lts 64bit and 32bit....... | 19:13 |
| Quantumpants | they have just started to do add things at the same time, i think it may have been a dodgy update??? | 19:13 |
| CyberGabber | Quantumpants: temporarily remove the adapter/powercable from the laptop, then remove battery for 30 seconds. Put back battery, check if laptop start with only battery. Then connect adaptercable again. | 19:15 |
| CyberGabber | Some battery have a small 'button' on it, with a few leds. if pressed it will show the charge-level | 19:16 |
| Quantumpants | <CyberGabber> ill give that a go. | 19:16 |
| nyktovus | running ubuntu server 12.04. looking for someone to help walk me thru adding a swap file on a system. | 19:16 |
| CyberGabber | Quantumpants: Better to remove all extern devices like extra Harddisk, mouse etc while testing | 19:16 |
| CyberGabber | Quantumpants: Check if battery is extreem hot etc. | 19:17 |
| Quantumpants | <CyberGabber> checked and no heat, the charger is fine and it worked perfectly up untill a few days ago when i did sudo apt-get update etc... | 19:19 |

| Quantumpants | <CyberGabber> I was told on this IRC chat room it may be a problem with Grub2 | 19:21 |
| Quantumpants | Guys what does this mean? " com.ubuntu.apport-gtk-root " | 19:23 |
| CyberGabber | Quantumpants: Something about acpi=nolapic ? | 19:23 |
| jhutchins | Quantumpants: It is extremely unlikely that it has anything to do with the OS at all. It would normally charge with the system shut down. | 19:24 |
| jhutchins | Quantumpants: It sounds very much like a hardware failure. | 19:24 |
| CyberGabber | Quantumpants: Give this a try, seems to be somwhat like your problem; http://askubuntu.com/questions/427560/ubuntu-battery-not-charging-or-not-detected | 19:24 |
| sipb | autorun run/hilightwin.pl | 19:26 |

| Hardtail | Hi guys, do I have to worry about antivirus programs or anything like? Anything to do for security? | 19:26 |
| chris_99 | iceroot, just tried the latest ver, still got the freeze :( | 19:26 |
| nyktovus | whats the best channel for help with ubuntu server? | 19:27 |
| bekks | nyktovus: #ubuntu-server | 19:27 |
| nyktovus | thanx. | 19:27 |
| Quantumpants | <Hardtail> just a firewall will do :) | 19:27 |
| nyktovus | @Hardtail : no, its linux :) | 19:28 |
| Hardtail | So it's safe to do banking and all that jazz? | 19:28 |

| carbon13 | Hardtail, no worries mate | 19:29 |
| CyberGabber | Hardtail: Always check SSL secure site etc. don't save password in browser etc. Never | 19:29 |
| john_doe_jr | how do you restart the network services after changing the ip address? | 19:29 |
| carbon13 | Hardtail, never open phishing emails | 19:29 |

| carbon13 | especially there is a lot of PayPal crap underway | 19:29 |
| jhutchins | Quantumpants: It's possible that the link CyberGabber posted might be related, but if it's not charging when it's shut down I doubt it's software. | 19:29 |
| Hardtail | If I wanted to learn about system security what should I look into, networking? | 19:29 |
| jhutchins | Quantumpants: Please read the link, it explains what to do with grub. | 19:30 |
| Hardtail | Are there anything I can monitor with Terminal and things like that | 19:30 |
| Martinjo84 | Hardtail: htop | 19:30 |
| carbon13 | hardtail, go the other way around: learn to hack a system, then you know how to secure it | 19:30 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: first you should learn the user/right management. i think most of the security issues are coming from that (and of course missing security updates) | 19:30 |
| Hardtail | I am just taking a Console Foundations course. | 19:30 |
| carbon13 | Hardtail, install an IDS (intrusion detection system) | 19:30 |
| Hardtail | Martinjo84: thank you I am looking that up. | 19:31 |
| Quantumpants | <jhutchins> sure, ill try that now, i may need a little guidence as im a newb | 19:31 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: so why there is a root user and a normal user, why using sudo instead of all the time the root user, what is this rwxr-xr-x and so on. i think that is a good way to understand a UNIX or GNU/Linux system and the security about it | 19:31 |
| carbon13 | Hardtail, close all outgoing ports linked to services (like inkjet, samba etc.) | 19:31 |
| jhutchins | Quantumpants: To make permanent changes, edit /etc/default/grub | 19:32 |
| CyberGabber | Quantumpants: as the links tells you: When you boot, the crub screen appears. edit your GRUB entry and add acpi=nolapic | 19:32 |
| CyberGabber | TO edit it, select the entry (or keep the default one) and press "e" | 19:32 |
| Hardtail | carbon13 thank you very much I am writing this down in gedit so I can google all this information to learn | 19:32 |
| Hardtail | iceroot thank you, noted as well to research | 19:33 |

| iceroot | sipb: ubuntu, kubuntu, lubuntu, xubuntu, knoppix, systemrescuedisk | 19:34 |
| Hardtail | carbon13 I understand what you said about learning hacking, when I searched it up I found white hat EC-council and the like | 19:34 |
| earthrocker | sipb, what are the specs on the computer | 19:35 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: and the most important think, please dont use the word "hacking" for breaking into a system, hacker does mean something else and is not related to break into systems | 19:35 |
| earthrocker | ram ghz ? | 19:35 |
| CyberGabber | sipb: When you boot, the crub screen appears. edit your GRUB entry and add acpi=nolapic | 19:35 |
| carbon13 | hardtail, there is some good stuff about hacking from ccc (chaos computer club) ... there are even presentations taped and posted in youtube | 19:35 |
| CyberGabber | sipb: Sorry, wrong line, PUPPY linux puppylinux.org | 19:35 |
| Hardtail | iceroot yes sir, it has to do with much more than just penetrating a system correct, reverse engineering, programming, understanding all systems, etc | 19:36 |
| sipb | BAM KNOPPIX ISO IT IS.Good day bye now. | 19:36 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: right, Kernel Hacker is a very good example of what hacking really means | 19:36 |
| Quantumpants | <CyberGabber> I have the Grub screen up | 19:37 |
| CyberGabber | sipb: Wow, thats a quick decision.. | 19:37 |
| Hardtail | iceroot thank you I am taking a look at CCC right now. I want to learn as much as I can | 19:37 |
| swift_fan1 | In "$PrivDropToGroup adm" in /etc/rsyslog.conf, what exactly is the group "adm", and what are their privileges? what users are in adm? | 19:37 |
| swift_fan1 | (initially) | 19:37 |
| swift_fan1 | :) | 19:37 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: ccc is also a good source | 19:38 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: but for learning a GNU/Linux system the best is to try it by yourself :) | 19:38 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: just using the system will have a big learn effect, all this user stuff, how to start applications, how different ditributions are working (deb, rpm, source-based) | 19:39 |
| Raver | whats | 19:39 |
| Hardtail | iceroot thank you, currently I am working on this course http://teamtreehouse.com/library/console-foundations-2 | 19:39 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: the best course and support i got is in #bash | 19:40 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: they have a wiki with a very good explanation | 19:40 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide | 19:40 |
| Hardtail | iceroot bookmarked, thank you! | 19:41 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: but sounds good that you are interested and i whish you luck on your GNU/Linux and Bash stuff | 19:41 |
| Hardtail | iceroot thanks, my background is in design but I want to learn everything I can about systems and programming | 19:42 |
| asxetoss_ | i run wamp in win7 for run php,mysql,myphpadmi for test local my site and other test.. | 19:42 |
| swift_fan1 | genii : What users are in the group "adm" in "$PrivDropToGroup adm" in /etc/rsyslog.conf, and what privileges do those users have ? | 19:42 |
| swift_fan1 | :) | 19:42 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: you will see, gnu tools dont have a nice design like other tools from this strange fruit :) | 19:42 |
| asxetoss_ | in linux what need 2 run ? | 19:42 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: the most important think about GNU/Linux is that is is free (as in free speech) | 19:43 |
| k1l | !lamp | asxetoss_ | 19:43 |
| ubottu | asxetoss_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 19:43 |
| iceroot | asxetoss_: sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 phpmyadmin i would suggest for a lamp system | 19:43 |
| Hardtail | iceroot :D my main computer was an Apple MacBook Pro, it has died on me due to graphics overheating. I just built a new computer with Windows 8.1 but I hate it. Feel much more comfortable on Ubuntu | 19:43 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: yeah, apple and windows 8... | 19:44 |
| Tuna | Ubuntu rocks, I just ditched windows 7 for the same reason :) | 19:44 |
| Hardtail | iceroot I see that I can build native applications with HTML5 too! | 19:44 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: ubuntu is a good start, i think there are better systems for learning but it is a good start into GNU/Linux | 19:44 |
| asxetoss_ | ok thank iceroot | 19:44 |
| genii | swift_fan1: adm is the admin group | 19:44 |
| iceroot | Hardtail: the issue about ubuntu is that is is doing some things there "own way" which is not always the best but that should not be imnportant now for learning | 19:45 |
| Hardtail | iceroot I just ordered an Asus Transformer BOok T100 it has windows 8 on it but I am going to take it off and put Ubuntu | 19:45 |
| Tuna | Actually that's sort of why I'm here, would anyone be able to point me in the direction of an idiot proof way to upgrade my GPU drivers? Last time I did that I put my computer into low graphics mode. | 19:45 |
| jhutchins | Tuna: Did you order something with decent open-source drivers? | 19:46 |
| Hardtail | iceroot I will brb in 10ish. | 19:46 |

| frainfreeze | 30mb? open source , bds licence | 19:48 |
| Tuna | iceroot: yeah, I've come across this page before, do I have to remove my already used drivers that I'm using then install the new drvers? Or just install the new drivers | 19:48 |
| frainfreeze | c++ and python | 19:48 |
| Pici | frainfreeze: Is there a already a .deb out there for it? | 19:49 |
| iceroot | frainfreeze: there is also the quake3 engine available | 19:49 |
| iceroot | frainfreeze: but the easiest is if it is in debian already | 19:49 |
| frainfreeze | There is deb indeed, it is panda 3d | 19:49 |
| iceroot | frainfreeze: if not you have to maintaine it by your own and its always easier to move something from debian to ubuntu instead of having an own package (security support 5 years lts and so on) | 19:49 |
| CyberGabber | Tuna: check: sudo /usr/bin/jockey-gtk , its for onfigure third-party and proprietary drivers, maybe it works | 19:50 |
| Pici | !newpackage | 19:50 |

| dreamcat4 | miq-w: don't think so. at least today the quickboot and everything worked properly. and i don't have any UEFI, just old BIOS + MBR | 20:24 |

| g0th | how do I paste some text in a terminal? | 20:24 |
| === Guest53972 is now known as luckybunny | ||
| Devial511 | Press CTRL + SHIFT + V ;) | 20:24 |
| Devial511 | Or RMB + Paste | 20:24 |
| lonewulf85__ | I want to prank my Windows fan brother with the virus and I figure "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" will work great because he does not read. | 20:25 |
| k1l | g0th: ctrl+shift+v | 20:25 |
| Luyin | mateusz__: it works in xfce, don't know about lxde. but I'm sure there are settings for keyboard shortcuts somewhere. | 20:25 |
| g0th | it didn't work | 20:25 |
| g0th | I use xterm | 20:25 |
| g0th | I have a touchpad, no right mouse | 20:25 |
| Devial511 | Why you use xTerm? | 20:25 |
| g0th | I prefer the look | 20:26 |
| g0th | font e.g. | 20:26 |
| k1l | g0th: ctrl+shift+v? | 20:26 |
| Devial511 | Can you use the standard terinal? | 20:26 |
| miq-w | <dreamcat4>: In that case, you shouldn't have too many problems. Surprises me though; Windows 8 pretty much insists on UEFI... | 20:26 |
| Devial511 | Try to use CTRL + SHIFT + V on standard terminal | 20:26 |
| g0th | what's the name of the standard terminal? | 20:26 |
| Devial511 | Konsole | 20:26 |
| Devial511 | Konsole aka Terminal xD | 20:26 |
| k1l | gnome-terminal | 20:26 |
| reisio | g0th: what k1l said | 20:26 |
| g0th | ok thanks | 20:26 |
| g0th | gnome-terminal is installed | 20:27 |
| g0th | and ctrl + shift + v works | 20:27 |
| Devial511 | It's normal by default | 20:27 |
| k1l | but why should ctrl+shift+v not work in xterm? | 20:27 |
| Devial511 | ;) | 20:27 |
| g0th | k1l: seems it doesn't | 20:27 |
| Devial511 | Because xterm have different shortkeys | 20:27 |
| g0th | I never had to use ctrl+shift+v before | 20:27 |
| k1l | g0th: ok, seems like its shift+insert in xterm | 20:27 |
| g0th | normally I use the middle mouse | 20:27 |
| miq-w | <dreamcat4>: Don't know your level of expertise; how are you with GParted & partitions? | 20:27 |
| g0th | thanks for the help | 20:28 |
| Devial511 | g0th | 20:28 |
| Devial511 | With Xterm you must press SHIFT + INS | 20:28 |
| Devial511 | For paste | 20:28 |

| Devial511 | I understand you | 20:30 |
| dreamcat4 | another issue is my wired realtek eth0 is 'cable disconnected'. not sure why that is | 20:31 |
| dreamcat4 | miq-w: yeah maybe. i guess i should have backed up the windows mbr first too (to save having to re-install windows again if it mucks up) | 20:31 |

| dbear | I have a lenovo w520 -- it works great with ubuntu -- most of the time. There are cases when the kernel will just hang on boot however. I believe the hardware is working perfectly. I think what is at issue is the kernel loads in a different way -- or perhaps certain parts of the hardware are not ready when the kernel attempts to activate things. To be clear, ubuntu runs fine after boot. The system also runs perfectly fine with windows 7 | 20:38 |
| dbear | -- no boot issues there whatsoever. Can anyone recommend a way to control how the kernel loads ? or perhaps how to troubleshoot why the kernel hangs on boot occasionally ? | 20:38 |
| dreamcat4 | compdoc: lspci does show it. maybe this same gigabit cable is bad for this notebook but not for my mac mini? | 20:40 |
| miq-w | <dreamcat>: That's normal; Ethernet ports are CONSTANTLY running & doing something. As compdoc says, what does lspci show in the terminal? | 20:41 |
| compdoc | dreamcat4, cable should work, but you never know. there are files in /etc/ that you can check to see if they are set properly | 20:41 |
| dreamcat4 | compdoc: ah it was just the stupid gigabit cable. for some nics/computers the DHCP handshake works, others it doesn't | 20:42 |

| swift_fan1 | genii : Thanks, but what exactly does the adm (admin group) entail? | 20:43 |

| swift_fan1 | genii : by default | 20:43 |
| dreamcat4 | yet that same (the longer) cable works fine on my 2007 mac mini. stupid things | 20:43 |
| lonewulf85_ | How can I do an if and statment that stops the bash script if the "if= The Shinning" | 20:44 |
| miq-w | <dreamcat>: Yeah, ethernet cables CAN be funny like that. The longer they are, the fussier they are... | 20:44 |
| swift_fan1 | genii : And what sets apart the admin group, from other groups, in terms of privileges, attributes, etc ? | 20:44 |
| genii | swift_fan1: The root user ( which has no login on Ubuntu) and the first user which was created at install time and has admin/sudo rights | 20:44 |
| miq-w | <dreamcat>: Ethernet's safer by far while you're installing, anyway; worry about your wireless connection when you're up and running... | 20:45 |
| k1l | swift_fan1: the users in that group are able to see the systemlogs | 20:45 |
| swift_fan1 | genii : What's the name of that first user, usually? | 20:46 |

| === roberto is now known as Guest42260 | ||

| dreamcat4 | can i enable the hibternation on 14.04 ? | 20:53 |
| lonewulf85 | hello | 20:54 |
| miq-w | <dreamcat>: Not a good idea. Suspend works FAR better? | 20:54 |
| miq-w | Hibernation tends to mess things up royally. | 20:54 |
| miq-w | ThereIS a workaround for it, but it's a bit of a hack... | 20:55 |
| cetex | a big reason is to save battery? :) | 20:55 |
| miq-w | And I can't remember where I saw it, now... | 20:55 |
| miq-w | <cetex>: Yah. Depends, of course, if you're on a PC or a lappie. | 20:56 |
| miq-w | Haven't used a lappie for several years! | 20:57 |
| dreamcat4 | miq-w: thanks. i'll try suspend instead then or is it automatic ? | 20:57 |
| miq-w | Not sure what you mean by 'automatic'. You select it from the drop-down on the gear symbol, top right corner. | 20:58 |
| k1l | suspend and hibernation is the same. there are suspend2disk and suspend2ram. hibernation is suspend2disk. standby is suspend2ram | 20:58 |
| jhutchins | ...although nothing actually says that and the terms are used somewhat sloppily. | 20:59 |
| miq-w | Mind you, lappies have problems I don't tend to get with a PC. All that batery conservation malarkey, ACPI and all that. | 20:59 |
| jhutchins | dreamcat4: Do you mean to ask if the system will suspend after being idle? | 20:59 |
| dreamcat4 | miq-w: ah right - thanks. perhaps i should be a little clearer because i need to save state, but reboot into windows | 20:59 |
| dreamcat4 | i mean if i wake from suspended state - i need it to present grub bootloader for booting into windows 8.1 | 21:00 |
| miq-w | Suspend's what you want, then....depends how long you'll be leaving the system idle, really. | 21:00 |
| dreamcat4 | yeah - didnt work :/ | 21:00 |
| miq-w | Ah, no...you really want either hibernate, or shut-down, then. Suspend won't give you GRUB. | 21:01 |
| jhutchins | dreamcat4: suspend to ram won't work - you need suspend to disk, which is hibernate. | 21:01 |
| blaaa | How can I hibernate with an encrypoted swap partition as hibernation target? | 21:01 |
| miq-w | But I know hibernate doesn't work under Ubuntu like itdoes in Windows. | 21:01 |
| jhutchins | dreamcat4: I think that will work though - the system doesn't look for a suspend file to reload until after it's loading linux. | 21:02 |
| dreamcat4 | great! :) except for the probelm of me being on 14.04 and the hibernate isn't really ready yet? | 21:02 |
| miq-w | Give it a try; I don't think you'll break anything. It'll either work or it won't. | 21:02 |
| k1l | dreamcat4: its disabled by default | 21:03 |

| Ben64 | linuxR: you need to do "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 21:24 |
| gabry_ | theseb, be sure on your youtube settings you're not trying some new youtube features like html5 videos | 21:24 |

| k1l | !dist-upgrade | linuxR | 21:25 |
| ubottu | linuxR: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 21:25 |
| squinty | miq-w, also sometimes even though password is entered correctly, it doesn't always return the user to the desktop but just keeps repeating "this session is locked blah blah...". quicker for me to reboot than muck around trying to find some hack around it. Kinda miffed that this obvious irritating problem hasn't been fixed as of yet....not like lubuntu was just released last week. | 21:25 |
| linuxR | Ben64, that would upgrade my 12.04 to 14.xx, right? | 21:25 |
| Ben64 | linuxR: nope | 21:25 |
| miq-w | Tell me about it! I get that maybe 1 out of every 5 restarts... | 21:26 |

| linuxR | k1l, didnt yet understand this :/ | 21:27 |
| miq-w | Squinty: It IS annoying; Lubuntu's a nice system, but it DOES have some super-annoying glitches still. The devs just don't have Canonical's budget is the top and bottomof the matter. | 21:27 |
| k1l | linuxR: ok, scroll back and re-read the conversation including the bots messages | 21:28 |
| theseb | gabry_: firefox doesn't have this problem | 21:28 |
| theseb | gabry_: basically the solution is to use flash everywhere...firefox does that but not chromium | 21:28 |
| gabry_ | theseb, maybe it manages html5 videos better? I don't know | 21:28 |
| gabry_ | theseb, maybe you should switch to chrome, I guess | 21:28 |
| k1l | linuxR: if you still got questions just ask | 21:29 |

| k1l | linuxR: apt-get upgrade (lets preface apt-get to make sure we dont talk about 13.10 to 14.04 upgrade) just installs new version of packages that are already installed. | 21:33 |

| devhen | do i need to enable beta releases somewhere ? | 21:33 |
| k1l | linuxR: apt-get dist-upgrade is the same as apt-get upgrade, but it can install even new packages. that is needed for some packages like kernel packages. the kernel meta package linux-image gets updated but it will need to get the linux-image-3.13...... package to be new installed | 21:34 |

| largefarva68 | what irc client are you guys using? | 22:07 |
| geetar | miq-w: sane lists the support for my model as "complete". | 22:08 |
| k1l_ | largefarva68: hexchat or irssi (cli) are some famous ones | 22:08 |
| largefarva68 | is hexchat any better than xchat? | 22:08 |
| largefarva68 | i'm using xchat now | 22:08 |
| geetar | largefarva68: pidgin | 22:09 |
| k1l_ | largefarva68: its the new xchat | 22:09 |
| largefarva68 | oh that makes sense | 22:09 |
| dreamcat4 | largefarva68: i use irssi in a customized version of Terminal.app, on mac os x | 22:12 |
| largefarva68 | yeah irssi seems to be popular but i used to use mirc back in the day so i'm used to a gui | 22:13 |
| daftykins | hexchat has made advances i think, try it, it won't kill you :) | 22:13 |
| largefarva68 | i'm on it right now ha | 22:13 |
| dreamcat4 | the only thing i don't care for with irssi is that all the 3rd party scripts/extensions are written in Perl (and don't know / like perl) | 22:13 |
| largefarva68 | looks pretty nice so far | 22:13 |
| k1l_ | hexchat is a fork of xchat while xchat is not in active development, iirc | 22:14 |
| miq-w | geeter: Can't always go by that. Give me a little bit.....I'll see what I can dig up. I had no END of fun making my Epson all-in-one work! | 22:14 |
| dreamcat4 | use an irc client that has good keyboard shortcuts, ones that you are familiar with | 22:14 |
| largefarva68 | oh i iddn't know they stop developing xchat | 22:14 |

| miq-w | geetar: Have a look at this; I don't know whether it'll help. You'll need to install the g2scanpdf with 'sudo apt-get install g2scanpdf', I would imagine. Then I guess you just follow the instructions for setting it up via the front-end... | 22:21 |
| miq-w | Sorry: http://www.micahcarrick.com/scansnap-1500-adf-scanner-in-linux.html My mistake! | 22:21 |
| miq-w | Let me know how you get on. | 22:21 |
| geetar | miq-w: I assume you mean gscan2pdf. g2scanpdf was not recognized. I tried that before and it would not communicate with the scanner. I think that is the app that briefly recognizes the scanner immediately when I plug it in. Then it loses it and claims that it cannot find a scanner. | 22:24 |
| geetar | The odd thing is that I can see the scanner with lsusb. "sane-find-scanner" sees it, but "scanimage -L" does not see it except when I unplug it and plug it back in; for a few seconds "scanimage -L" will see it. | 22:25 |
| miq-w | largefarva68: I'm in hexchat right now. It's a lot easier to setup than some of the others, and the config for auto-identification using SASL is pretty easy, too. | 22:25 |
| miq-w | geetar: Hm! Sounds like you might have one of those 'awkward' ones, I'm afraid... | 22:26 |
| dreamcat4 | great! got hibernate working on both windows 8.1 and ububtu 14.04 simultaneously! (although not by the 'pm-hibernate' cmd) | 22:27 |
| geetar | miq-w: I am wondering if the firmware is missing. Supposedly I can put the firmware path in /etc/sane.d/fujitsu.conf, but I dont know if I can find the firmware. | 22:27 |
| dreamcat4 | so i can dual-boot the same disk and it resumes either one | 22:27 |
| dreamcat4 | networking comes back up too | 22:27 |
| miq-w | geetar: My mistake on the gscan2pdf. It's been a long day..! | 22:27 |
| largefarva68 | miq-w not to sound stupid but SASL? | 22:27 |
| k1l_ | !sasl | largefarva68 | 22:28 |
| largefarva68 | what's that do? | 22:28 |
| geetar | miq-w: NP. bbl. I am going to make sure that I can get the installed windows on this machine to use the scanner to eliminate the possibility that this computer itself is incompatible. | 22:28 |
| k1l_ | largefarva68: well, some secure connection to freenode stuff. see the freenode page for howto | 22:29 |
| geetar | miq-w: thanks. | 22:29 |
| miq-w | largefarva68: Sorry. I'm pretty new to this IRC stuff myself, but it's a way to set up your IRC client to identify yourself to the network without needing to do it manually everytime you log-in. | 22:29 |
| largefarva68 | thanks miq-w | 22:30 |
| largefarva68 | i'll check it out | 22:30 |
| bjpenn | how do i see the network settings of the server? when i edit the file /etc/network/interfaces, it shows me the two physical interfaces, and what IPs they occupy | 22:30 |
| bjpenn | but therea re a lot of other IPs that it occupies | 22:30 |
| bjpenn | how do i see where those are configureD? | 22:30 |
| miq-w | If you follow kll's advice, the freenode page will tell you all about it.....and there's an example on there for how to set it up for Hexchat. | 22:31 |
| daftykins | bjpenn: can you explain yourself in better detail? | 22:32 |
| bjpenn | yah | 22:32 |
| bjpenn | for example when i edit /etc/network/interfaces, i see eth0 , and lets say its 192.168.1.100 | 22:32 |
| miq-w | geetar: Doubt it's the 'puter itself, especially if it's worked under Windows before. It'll definitely be software that's tripping you up... | 22:33 |
| bjpenn | but i can also get to the server via 192.168.1.1 | 22:33 |
| bjpenn | i can also get to the server via 192.168.1.2 | 22:33 |
| bjpenn | where are these other interfaces, 192.168.1.1, and 192.168.1.2 configured? | 22:33 |
| daftykins | hmm, pastebin "ifconfig -a" and the interfaces file | 22:34 |
| bjpenn | ok | 22:34 |
| hhhh | i have a cronjob to suspend and wake my pc except as soon as the pc sleeps the clock stops working so it never wakes up and i have to manually wake it | 22:35 |
| hhhh | when i wake it it still has the time that it slept at | 22:35 |
| dreamcat4 | hi again. is there some way to auto-hide background windows when alt-tab switching ? (like old mac system X ways) | 22:37 |
| daftykins | it's not a mac. | 22:37 |
| dreamcat4 | daftykins: i know, even macs don't do this anymore either | 22:37 |
| bjpenn | daftykins: http://www.hastebin.com/ebesewidax.sm | 22:38 |
| === jack- is now known as Guest45880 | ||
| bjpenn | daftykins: /etc/interfaces/network only shows eth0 and eth1 | 22:39 |
| daftykins | bjpenn: no, it's every $interface:x - you see eth0 is itself, then it has multiple IPs by having eth0:1 and so on | 22:40 |
| bjpenn | in /etc/network/interfaces | 22:40 |
| bjpenn | i only see eth0 and eth1 | 22:40 |
| daftykins | oh right yeah, now i get you | 22:40 |
| AlexQ | Hi. What should I do when Ubuntu installer and GParted both see partitions on my disk in a different way than they really are? The partition table is created and managed by Windows. I really don't want to backup all data, reinstall windows etc. | 22:40 |
| daftykins | bjpenn: who is your server from? | 22:41 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: you should backup before installing anyway. provide more detail though, what are they saying? | 22:41 |
| bjpenn | daftykins: its not from any cloud places | 22:41 |
| bjpenn | like | 22:41 |
| bjpenn | amazon or whatever | 22:41 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Well, I have my most important data on Dropbox, so I am safe. | 22:42 |
| daftykins | bjpenn: maybe contacting whoever it is from or reading their support/FAQ would make sense | 22:42 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: I made some strange things with my disk - at some point the second usable partition (D:) wasn't a continuous space on HDD, but was split into two halves separated by empty space I left for something | 22:42 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: what OS are you in now? | 22:43 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Win7 | 22:43 |
| daftykins | boot ubuntu media and install "pastebinit", then share "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" | 22:43 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Okay. And how should I save how Windows sees it? | 22:44 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: screenshot diskmgmt.msc | 22:45 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: or run cmd, run "diskpart" within that, "lis dis" to list the disks, "sel dis #" where # = your HDD, then "lis par" and pastebin that | 22:46 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Wow, nice to know that command to go directly there. It will be in Polish though, but shouldn't be a problem | 22:46 |
| daftykins | nah i think all windows shortcuts for the run dialogue are english | 22:46 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: I mean the description on output. Wow, I had no idea that windows has such options now. You're both Windows and Unix hacker :D | 22:47 |
| daftykins | heh | 22:47 |
| daftykins | don't tell anyone but i don't even use Linux on the desktop *whistle* | 22:48 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Neither had I, so that's why I didn't have my disk prepared | 22:48 |
| daftykins | which windows version is it? do you know whether it was installed EFI or legacy? | 22:49 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Win7. No idea, the partition table is OEM, never recreated by me | 22:49 |
| daftykins | oic | 22:49 |
| daftykins | probably legacy and so MBR | 22:50 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: oic? | 22:50 |
| daftykins | oh i see | 22:50 |
| bazzzb | Any advice on how to sync two or more webservers. | 22:51 |
| daftykins | rsync? :) | 22:52 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: So I removed that strangely divided D partition and recreated it and it looks like that now: https://www.dropbox.com/s/debatfpvt7tpob0/Zrzut%20ekranu%202014-09-30%2023.52.47.png?dl=0 | 22:53 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: But Xubuntu installer and GParted both see it in a different way. What is strange, though, is I was able to mount both those Win partitions. | 22:53 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Give me a sec to boot into Xubu and save that infos | 22:54 |
| Zerock | I've encountered a situation on Ubuntu GNOME where X goes nuts and maxes out 2 cores of the CPU. | 22:54 |
| bazzzb | daftykins: was hoping om something more complex. Databases. Files. Server configs. All need to be synced. | 22:54 |

| Demon_Jester | hey guys, For some reason I cannot telnet, and was wondering if I need to manual configure ethernet port to telnet to a device? | 22:55 |
| bjpenn | daftykins: are you saying all interfaces should be on etc/network/interfaces? | 22:55 |
| bjpenn | even the virtual interfaces? | 22:55 |
| daftykins | bazzzb: have you not ever looked into rsync before? :P | 22:55 |
| bjpenn | like :0, :1, :2 | 22:55 |
| daftykins | bjpenn: well, that's what i'd expect at least | 22:55 |
| bjpenn | yah thats what i expected too | 22:55 |
| bjpenn | but i dont think thats the case | 22:56 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: i don't think that pic finished uploading yet | 22:56 |
| bazzzb | daftykins: I did. Looking at docker now | 22:56 |
| ahklerner | yeah it just says 'this file is uploading' | 22:56 |
| daftykins | bazzzb: bit confused as to why you don't think it's appropriate then. nevermind! | 22:57 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Sorry, something broken with Dropbox then :O | 22:57 |
| Demon_Jester | nevermind I had ot manual set up config for my eth port. | 22:58 |
| daftykins | Demon_Jester: what on earth are you using telnet with? that's an ancient insecure protocol | 22:58 |
| Demon_Jester | daftykins: on openwrt in failsafe mode you have to telnet in | 22:59 |
| daftykins | ah right | 22:59 |
| Demon_Jester | but I got it working now. | 22:59 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Geez, that's realy broken, even if I move the file, duplicate it etc. it's still not appearing online, but Dropbox says it's synced :D Uploading via webinterface | 23:00 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5984182/harddrivescreenshot.png | 23:00 |

| === Granis` is now known as Granis | ||
| AlexQ | I'm back | 23:09 |
| daftykins | hey | 23:09 |
| daftykins | so that's a bit of a messy disk! | 23:09 |
| daftykins | #1, it's got that wasted recovery partition at the start, stealing 13.67GB from the fastest part! | 23:09 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: You've seen the paste already? :D That's even 'messier': http://paste.ubuntu.com/8469175/ | 23:10 |
| daftykins | #2, your disk i can tell is in 'dynamic' mode, which is a lot riskier of a state to run it than the standard 'basic' mode. the good news is you can convert it to basic in Windows with two clicks | 23:10 |
| daftykins | whaaaaat they're all primary 0o | 23:10 |
| AlexQ | yeah :D | 23:10 |
| daftykins | heh yeah that's not going to work | 23:10 |
| daftykins | do you definitely not have any other storage devices to backup? | 23:11 |
| AlexQ | not now ;( | 23:11 |
| AlexQ | what is risky? Those two clicks converting it back to basic? | 23:11 |
| === solarfly_ is now known as solarfly | ||
| AlexQ | well, so that is using some strange MS proprietary technology that is not supported by Linux at all? | 23:12 |
| daftykins | nah leaving it as dynamic is a risk | 23:12 |
| daftykins | it's just not a good idea to use, at all | 23:12 |
| daftykins | it's a setup designed to let you 'pool' drives together i think | 23:12 |
| AlexQ | yeah, you can do it | 23:12 |
| Guest29213 | :) | 23:13 |
| AlexQ | when I was looking for settings you can actually have a partition spread over multiple disks :O So, how to change it back to basic? | 23:13 |
| === jonathono_ is now known as jonathono | ||
| daftykins | AlexQ: run diskmgmt.msc again then just right click on the left where it says 'disk 0' | 23:14 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: heh, or Dysk 0 ;) | 23:14 |
| AlexQ | and then? | 23:15 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: should say 'convert to basic' right there | 23:15 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: All options are grayed out except for Properties and Help | 23:15 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: It says, but it's inactive too :< | 23:16 |
| daftykins | hrmm | 23:16 |
| AlexQ | maybe that's because I have to many primary partitions? | 23:16 |
| daftykins | 4 is the correct limit | 23:16 |
| AlexQ | and what's that 100MB"System reserved" space for? | 23:16 |
| daftykins | that's windows 7's kinda boot partition | 23:16 |
| daftykins | it's normal for all win7 installs | 23:17 |
| AlexQ | what's there? | 23:17 |
| daftykins | what's weird is that Linux saw yet another one before that, even | 23:17 |
| daftykins | windows boot files and so on | 23:17 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: i'll be back shortly, need to take care of a couple of things | 23:19 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: So what should I do now? Even if I could get an external drive or sth large enough to backup all data, it seems scary to remove the whole partition table | 23:19 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: As I have no idea how that recovery system works - that you press a button in BIOS and it boots that recovery stuff up | 23:19 |
| AlexQ | okay | 23:19 |
| starlight_ | hello | 23:20 |
| bjpenn | in linux i can define interfaces using ifconfig right? but the problem is it doesn't become persistent? | 23:21 |
| starlight_ | How do I make my desktop manager remember where windows are when I close them (so that they appear in the same place I closed them when re-opening)? I use Ubuntu 14.04 with Unity | 23:22 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: did you say you deleted and recreated D: earlier? | 23:25 |
| daftykins | starlight_: tried ctrl+clicking close? | 23:27 |
| starlight_ | daftykins: doesn't work | 23:28 |
| daftykins | no idea then! | 23:28 |
| karex | starlight_: I think there's no way for it | 23:28 |
| karex | (until now) | 23:29 |
| starlight_ | it seems like something so simple | 23:29 |
| daftykins | i don't know anyone who would ever be that picky. | 23:29 |
| starlight_ | i have issues | 23:29 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Yeah, I did. That's why it's a single block of data now. That was the only way to join it apparentlly | 23:30 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: what i would do is delete that again, create a partition in the nieprzydzielone space ;) and select "extended partition" and select the entire area - then in the extended partition, create your D: as a logical drive. that'll leave space to install xubuntu | 23:31 |
| karex | starlight_: because window size and position is defined in the program. if it's developed by using GTK+, as I know, there's no options such LAST_USER for position, so the program should remember manually where the last position if it wants to | 23:31 |
| failfarm | if i were looking for a linux equal to say unity3d would this be the place to ask or somewhere else ? | 23:32 |
| starlight_ | karex: so even if there was a solution it would be on an individual-program basis? | 23:32 |
| daftykins | failfarm: the game engine? | 23:32 |
| failfarm | daftykins: yea, was looking for a native linux game engine | 23:33 |
| karex | starlight_: yes (I think, but not 100% sure) | 23:33 |
| daftykins | failfarm: odd, i thought it was cross-platform | 23:34 |
| failfarm | daftykins: it will port games to linux but will not install to my knowlege with out wine | 23:34 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Yeah, but I don't think Xubuntu will see the space and the whole disk correctly then, 'cause it's dynamic and I can't convert it back to basic parttable now | 23:35 |
| kostkon | daftykins, the unity3d IDE does not have a linux version currently | 23:35 |
| daftykins | kostkon: ah ok ty | 23:36 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: hmm, i'd play more with partitioning utilities in a xubuntu live session before giving up - but i would personally like to reclaim that disk space from the recovery partition :) | 23:36 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: i think a full backup is your best bet i'm afraid | 23:36 |
| failfarm | i guess ill wait for ue4 to get their stuff together, thanks for the help | 23:37 |
| guest-lkajdf_431 | just testing - thank you. Can someone say hi if they see this?? | 23:38 |
| daftykins | do not use this channel for that in future | 23:39 |

| ubottu | Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use /join #test ) | 23:39 |
| Loshki | bjpenn: you can usually configure the /etc/network/interface file, or, if all else fails, add ifconfig commands to /etc/rc.local... | 23:39 |
| guest-lkajdf_431 | thx | 23:39 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Why do you say it's the fastest space? The physical location on the HDD matters? | 23:40 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: yes indeed, a hard disk storages data on concentric 'circles' called tracks, starting from the outside edge of the platters and moving inwards (the opposite of CD) so the start of an HDD is the fastest part. | 23:41 |
| daftykins | *stores data | 23:41 |
| Matt___ | How do I disable nouveau nvidia in Ubuntu? | 23:41 |
| bjpenn | Loshki: thanks! | 23:41 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: I know it does that, but I had no idea that it influences the reading and writing speed. | 23:42 |
| Matt___ | So I can active 331 | 23:42 |
| daftykins | Matt___: your question doesn't make sense. if you have an nvidia optimus laptop you have to use bumblebee or nvidia-prime | 23:42 |
| daftykins | or do you mean you want to use nvidia drivers instead of nouveau? because that's automatic once you install nvidia-331 | 23:43 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Why is this piece faster? The data density is the same, right? And how could I back-up that partition? I can't even make a proper image of it since parted doesn't see it probably, can I :D? | 23:44 |
| AlexQ | properly* | 23:44 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: If I want to keep the installation partition for Windows I have licence for | 23:45 |
| Matt___ | daftykins: I want to do that yes. Install nvidia-331 instead. My problem is, running something like lsmod | grep -i nvidia brings up nothing, while nouveau brings up a response. I have nvidia-331 enabled too. | 23:45 |
| daftykins | Matt___: distro? version? | 23:45 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: i would nuke the entire disk without a worry. you can obtain windows DVD media to install from, no need to keep the recovery partition at all | 23:46 |
