Thing is i have unllocated space but i cant add it to the partiton. [00:44] srdjan_: how are you trying? [00:44] Also i think i lost like 40 Gbs of space cuz i fucked something up in windows [00:44] Im using GPArted [00:44] I had 3 partitons on my comp. i used the second one to install ubuntu on. On C is windows. [00:44] please don't use that language in here, keep it family riendly [00:45] *friendly too [00:45] Im a first time user so please excuse me [00:45] Oh sorry will watch my lang.

Nice lappy but the mouse pointer disapears (mouse doesn't work) and the keyboard does not work either. This is happening with "try ubuntu" on ubuntu 14. I already know I want to install ubuntu on it (first thing I do w/ every computer I own) but this worries me. [00:49] srdjan_: the command was "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit" [00:49] yes and i got the result [00:49] Has anyone heard of other issues as well [00:49] And what is the soln to the keyboard/mouse issue? [00:50] srdjan_: which should've been a URL. you probably didn't install pastebinit [00:50] guest-lkajdf_431: maybe it's broken. [00:50] well i did sudo apt get install pastebinit [00:51] Ohh sorry [00:51] i didint pastebinit.. [00:51] daftykins: the hardware you mean? [00:51] guest-lkajdf_431: yes. [00:51] em im terribly sorry but i dont know how to put the | on my keyboard [00:52] It has win xp media center (2007) on it and everything works fine under that os [00:52] paste it [00:52] ah yes [00:52] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8482628/ [00:52] guest-lkajdf_431: install it alongside then perhaps [00:53] daftykins: not gonna happen - I'll throw a computer in the trash can before I allow winblows on it [00:53] srdjan_: can you also do "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" [00:53] there is a soln and I need to find it [00:53] guest-lkajdf_431: right, so have you installed it yet? are you dealing with a native install of 14.04? [00:53] because that's what i was getting at. [00:54] yes i can do [00:54] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8482630/ [00:54] daftykins: have not installed yet bc I wanted to test for just this sort of thing as I did [00:54] hi all [00:54] I'd prefer to find at least some kind of soln before going for the gusto [00:55] guest-lkajdf_431: but you don't care for Windows on there, so... [00:55] well [00:55] srdjan_: i don't see any unallocated space [00:55] its just my way I guess [00:56] guest-lkajdf_431: i think full ubuntu would be a mistake on such a machine anyway [00:56] well i allocate any yet. when i allocate it and try to enter the command to merge it with ext4 linux i cant do it [00:56] should i first do the resize of new volume D and then try to merge it with ext4? [00:57] srdjan_: ok so there isn't free space, you're wanting to shrink Windows first [00:57] yeah no, that's not going to end up very well [00:57] So what should I do? How will i add more space? [00:58] I tried googling but nothing really helps.. [00:58] srdjan_: i'd backup ubuntu, delete and recreate after adjusting windows [00:58] so youre saying i should just do it all again? [00:59] srdjan_: yep [00:59] damn [00:59] there aint no way? [00:59] i mean i have 3.64 gib on here [00:59] it should be enuff for documents or streaming a movie..right? [00:59] srdjan_: also, you may want to read up on partitioning, as you have 3 primary partitions there that are NTFS. that's not how it's done [00:59] how do i fix that? [01:00] starting again [01:00] wiping the hard drive? [01:01] srdjan_: well you don't have to murder the very first one, Windows' C: [01:02] Damn mate. How do you propose i do all that? [01:02] I mean I have tons of files on there [01:02] Maybe just buying a new disk? [01:02] Also what are the consequences? [01:02] do you not have another drive? [01:03] srdjan_: where do you do your backups to? [01:03] I had some backups [01:04] My files go to a dropbox and i got pictures on my laptop and some usb. [01:04] I mean D and E are mostly games and shit that i can afford to lose [01:04] srdjan_: stop with the language, please [01:04] Sorry again [01:05] I know I'm going to look like a complete idiot (no suprise here)....

[01:09] wizechatmgr: can you use paste.ubuntu.com to show output of "sudo apt-get -f install" please [01:09] would be more than happy to :) [01:10] Is there any chanche that i leave it like this?

[01:11] memory is not disk space [01:11] sorry. disk space. [01:12] wizechatmgr: do you have any PPAs added that you've used to install other software? [01:12] hate to sound like an idiot... but what's a PPA?

[01:14] the last thing I've done in recent months was attempt to add GUI to it, it got stuck, and I atttempted to back out, but I think it didn't go as well as it could have [01:14] srdjan_: nope [01:14] wizechatmgr: you probably aren't meant to do that with a digitalocean droplet [01:14] jurzdevil [01:15] I've done far worse successfully... [01:15] Okey. Theres a big question here? [01:15] Can i do this [01:15] wizechatmgr: try "dpkg -r libqtcore4" [01:16] srdjan_: do you still have the USB flash drive or DVD you installed ubuntu from? [01:16] Can i got into windows and delete the partitons and not remove grub? [01:16] Yes of course [01:16] go* [01:16] dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove libqtcore4:amd64, only the config files of which are on the system; use --purge to remove them too [01:17] so I'm guessing next command should be a purge "? [01:17] apt-get purge yip [01:17] srdjan_: yeah you can do it that way too, then resize your D: as you planned to do [01:17] srdjan_: just beware that Windows likely won't boot until you reinstall ubuntu beside it [01:18] So the plan is. Boot into Windows. Delete the ubuntu partitons. Then put that space again on D. Then restart. Then install ubuntu form boot menu? [01:18] no resize D: as in shrink it [01:18] because you wanted to make more space for ubuntu, right? [01:19] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8482750/ [01:19] looking like no dice... [01:19] I wann add the unlocated space that will be left after deleting ubuntu to D. And then in the install of ubuntu il add more space memory? [01:20] srdjan_: no [01:20] I've done the apt-get -f install a few million times... [01:20] So what do i do :( [01:20] wizechatmgr: nah that's just the result of you previously having tried to install the desktop probably [01:21] seems like it is half-in, half-out... [01:21] srdjan_: first off, there is nothing to be gained by resizing D: to use up the entire disk again - because you want to put ubuntu back on, yes? [01:21] wizechatmgr: yeah so you need to commit to a full removal or something [01:21] I want to install ubuntu on D again [01:22] it can't go *on* D [01:22] more than willing to do that, any easy command line? [01:22] But what will happen with the space that will be left after ubuntu? [01:22] it'll happily sit there unused [01:22] What can i do with it? [01:22] but you need to *shrink* D: if you want to reinstall ubuntu but make it larger [01:22] only reason I really care is I want to make sure the bash/etc gets updates [01:23] wizechatmgr: do you have much installed and configured on this VPS? [01:23] not enough that I can't roll her back without too much of a headache... you think that's the best way? [01:23] So i cant do anything with those 10 Gibs of space? [01:23] Which are now used by the ubuntu which im runnin. [01:24] wizechatmgr: you have a snapshot from before you attempted putting the desktop on? [01:24] of course :) [01:24] I'm only half dumb :) [01:24] heh, yeah i'd just roll back, it looks like you have some kind of xdg software installed that's conflicting [01:24] [hellome]: what is the best mirc client for linux? [01:25] srdjan_: i'm sorry but you're making me go around in circles by not understanding simple concepts, i can't help you anymore. [01:25] [hellome]: what is the best mirc client for linux? [01:25] ops [01:25] helloww, what is the best mirc client for linux? [01:25] VictorVR: stop repeating yourself [01:25] VictorVR: look into xchat and hexchat [01:25] VictorVR: there is no "best" client for anything. MIRC is a client. There are other IRC clients. Find one that suits your needs [01:25] I just dont understand what will happen to the unnlocated memory which will be left by the Ubuntu uinstallation. [01:26] someone I know it. you understand my question [01:26] srdjan it will sit unused [01:26] !best | VictorVR [01:26] someone I know it. you understand my question [01:26] so thats like wasted 10 gibs of memory which i cant add anywhere? [01:26] srdjan_: it's not memory. [01:27] disk space [01:27] space.. [01:27] sorry, can't assist you anymore. [01:27] somsip What IRC client do you use?

The issue is, i go to 'source vars' I then run sudo ./clean-all and then it tells me I must source var first [01:36] any ideas? :O [01:37] ubuntu is awesome, love it!!! [01:37] heh [01:37] i've tried . vars [01:37] i've tried source ./vars [01:38] had it with windows when they came out with 8 [01:38] Still gives me the same error when i run sudo ./clean all [01:38] Still gives me the same error when i run sudo ./clean-all* [01:40] Cloudka82: a possible solution/clarification http://is.gd/L3bb1z [01:41] :O thank you [01:42] Cloudka82: and if you've done . vars it will load the vars to your current environment. When you use sudo, you don't use your current environment (IIRC). So that might also be a failure point [01:44] Nope, still nothing :( [01:45] I guess I'll just go back to Debian Lol [01:45] it plays nicer [01:45] Cloudka82: still nothing when you do what> [01:45] When i attempt to source vars [01:46] Cloudka82: there will be no output [01:46] i ran . /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/vars [01:46] then i ran [01:46] sudo /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/clean-all [01:46] Cloudka82: why are you running clean-all as sudo? [01:46] I then tells me, please source the vars script first (i.e. source ./vars) [01:46] which i've also tried [01:47] and because if I don't i get a shitload of permission denied [01:47] Cloudka82: follow the official guide. It does not mention sudo https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN [01:47] Cloudka82: and keep your language family-friendly please [01:47] apologies [01:47] Just slightly confused O_o I know it's due to the fact that I'm a rookie [01:47] rawr [01:47] anyone else experiencing awful slowness mounting up a remote directory with curlftpfs? [01:48] how can I execute a .sh file with double click? [01:48] Cloudka82: then try not to blame ubuntu and find a realiable guide and follow it carefully [01:48] Hmmm, I do appreciate the advice. that's the exact guide I'm following, however Ubuntu is forcing me to run everything as sudo [01:49] There might be a default sudo account I should try accessing [01:50] Cloudka82: In Step 3, there are two commands which should allow any members of the admin group to source vars and run clean-all. Your default user should be in admin. Have you run those 2 commands (sudo chown... and sudo chmod...)

[02:57] how come the answer changed? [02:57] nusr: share a pastebin or screenshot of 'top' running? [02:58] Okay, a related question. If my motherboard conks out, I can just swap in a new one, right? Ubuntu shouldn't freak out the way Windows does? [02:58] redlance: correct [02:58] daftykins, Okay, thanks. [02:59] redlance: wouldn't hurt to backup anyway :) [02:59] daftykins, True, I have all my data rsync to a USB drive nightly...I should just add the system drive too. [03:00] daftykins: i'll try the next time it freezes, but i don't think i can take a screenshot when the system is unresponsive. there is nothing i can do to kill an application to free up ram? [03:00] wow USB flash is not a backup [03:00] daf Not flash, external spinning disks [03:00] ah ok [03:00] nusr: you could try SSH'ing in from another box, but it sounds like you've just... not set that one up quite right. definitely no swap? very unwise [03:01] daftykins, I don't trust flash drives any more then I do floppy disks [03:01] :D good to hear [03:02] daftykins: live and learn daftykins...next install will have a swap [03:02] daftykins: sda1 swap, sda2 ubuntu, sda3 some other is correct? [03:03] no, be having them sequential you're saying they're all going to be primary partitions [03:03] that's not right [03:03] *by [03:04] nusr: how much RAM does this box have and how much was allocated to the VM? [03:05] daftykins: this one has 4. 2 to host and less than 2 to virtual...(emm but i had 2 virtuals running :p) [03:05] What the fuck is with Apache? Just installing it changed system load average from 0.39 to 3.16 on a dual-core box [03:06] Nobody accessing the server yet. [03:07] daftykins, So.. [03:07] it worked. [03:07] However, I screwed up and installed a 32bit distro instead of x64. [03:07] So back at it again now that I tried to deploy our software and failed lol [03:08] Sachiru, This is supposed to be a 'family friendly' chat from what I've been told so I'd avoid cusing. [03:08] nusr: lol. my maths isn't ace but... yeah. [03:09] Sorry for offending your sensibilities, PermaNull [03:09] Sachiru, I said from what I've been told. [03:09] As In I did the same and got told the same. [03:09] But when you've spent 36 hours on getting nfSen to work on a dual core box that's supposed to handle only one netflow sender [03:10] Easy, don't use nfSen. [03:10] lol [03:10] And get unexplainable spikes on apache that render it unusable, and some form of integration conflict crap with Perl and Lighttpd and nfSen, you'd be just as pissed as I am [03:10] Sachiru: this is a channel for ubuntu support, not whining [03:10] You don't know what nfSen is, do you, PermaNull [03:10] Sachiru, I've dealt with a lot of different linux related complications in my life. [03:10] stop that. [03:10] daftykins: thanks..i'll watch youtube for the swap install and get more ram [03:10] And otherwise. [03:10] @daftykins yes, I am asking for support [03:11] I've been there and I still didn't whine about it. [03:11] Sachiru: yet to see a question, just whining. [03:11] Regarding why just _installing_ apache2 is causing load to spike [03:11] Also that's apache support not ubuntu. [03:11] With nobody acccessing the server [03:11] go to apache and ask your question. [03:11] Ah crap [03:12] Did not see that this was #ubuntu and not #ubuntu-server [03:12] And I do know what nfSen is... [03:12] guys, stop it [03:12] fight! [03:12] nusr: don't. [03:12] nusr, no fight. [03:12] just an arrogant prick. [03:13] thanks guys. see you later. [03:14] daftykins, what do you do for work? [03:14] I'll trade you. [03:14] it's not a chat channel [03:14] http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view7/4909151/fight-club-o.gif [03:17] test [03:17] !test [03:17] Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3...

[03:23] permanull iptable was helping me with setting up fakeraid vols on ubuntu couple of days ago [03:23] Ahh, I didn't realize there was someone named iptable I thought you were asking for assitance with iptables. [03:24] PermaNull he said my controller does not support linux hence i am only able to see 3.2TB instead of of the full 8TB. but it works in fedora now, so wanted to check [03:24] PermaNull :) it happens [03:29] pak101: that sounds like a bold claim on their part [03:29] pak101: anywho what's the point in coming in here running fedora XD [03:29] daftykins about the fakeraid support? [03:29] sounded more like a driver issue to me [03:30] pak101: what fakeraid [03:30] daftykins i dont want fedora i want to come back to ubuntu and wants to make it look full size [03:30] oh right [03:30] good luck then :D [03:30] pak101: is this cluster computing [03:30] also #ubuntu-server [03:30] whoever fakeraid - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto#What_is_fakeRAID.3F [03:31] cluster has nothing to do with fakeRAID [03:31] whoever no its a individual desktop [03:32] can I resize my ubuntu partition from Windows 7 side? [03:33] I want to make a small iso to use on VirtualBox [03:33] sargas: sorry can you rephrase? [03:33] sargas: you can try as long as you don't screw up the boot sector you should be fine [03:34] hmmm [03:34] I have a dual boot computer [03:34] ok [03:34] I want to resize my Ubuntu partition and make an image off of it [03:34] pak101: why would you want to use fake raid, it sounds like a dirty trick that is just that dirty [03:34] so I can virtualize it on my Windows side [03:35] whoever i need data volume separately so i can sustain OS crashes [03:35] daftykins: does it make sense? [03:35] sargas: yeah, i think you can actually VM a physical disk install directly though [03:35] oO [03:36] daftykins: really? [03:36] daftykins: from virtualbox and all [03:36] sargas: pak101 its sounds like what you realy want to do is datamine on a micro level to minimize downtime ? [03:36] whoever: go troll elsewhere [03:37] ignore this user, guys [03:37] pak101: here is what i did, get a 3Tb external, and put images there and or data [03:37] lol [03:37] sargas: i think it was vbox yeah, check in their channel [03:37] I didn't even understand the question...... [03:37] daftykins: not trolling [03:37] daftykins: ok I'll give it a shot [03:37] that would save a lot of time setting stuff up [03:38] whoever i have external copies as well but i want to keep downtime to minimal [03:39] pak101: you would be bettr suited(if you got the $$ to throw at some hds) to use the linux raid then that crappy fakeraid [03:40] pak101: is this a production or home enviroment [03:40] whoever ya i agree but linux raid does not work in case of OS crash. its home environment [03:41] pak101: yes it does work, set up you os, with the raid software, then make an image of that [03:41] gnustep-gui-runtime, I love this.. can speak through terminal :0LOL [03:41] daftykins: from vbox documentation: [03:41] daftykins: Raw hard disk access is for expert users only. Incorrect use or use of an outdated configuration can lead to total loss of data on the physical disk. Most importantly, do not attempt to boot the partition with the currently running host operating system in a guest. This will lead to severe data corruption. [03:41] pak101: or if your mobo has raid then you could use that [03:41] whoever hmm ya that makes sense i will ponder over it [03:41] daftykins: which means "no, I'm good" haha [03:41] sargas: :) [03:42] daftykins: Maybe I'll transfer my Ubuntu image to an external drive and call it good :) [03:43] daftykins: Use it anywhere [03:43] pak101: incase you where wondering the question of home, production, is because with home you usually don't need a downtime to be under an hour , so unless you want to you don't need to spend the cash [03:43] sargas: of course Linux OSs are based on a file orientated system, so you could create a VM, then just scp all the files onto it and it'd match [03:43] whover s i get that. thanks for the idea [03:43] pak101: also i keep an extra hd or 2 just for quick swap if one dies [03:44] whoever ack [03:45] daftykins: so a secure copy on fresh ubuntu install would bring my machine back? [03:45] daftykins: that's sweet! [03:45] pak101: ack ? [03:45] knowledged [03:45] whoever acknowledge your suggestion :) [03:45] pak101: thx [03:49] What units does default file manager use to describe file sizes? Kibibyte kilobyte megabit giga [03:50] azizLIGHT: bytes [03:50] Are they the 1024 kind or 1000 kind [03:50] azizLIGHT: what are you tring to do ? get a more human readable output ? [03:50] 1024. [03:50] Make nice partition sizes [03:51] I don't want 200.1 [03:51] Wanna even number lol [03:51] Round [03:52] azizLIGHT: then use 100M or 10000G [03:52] whoever: you see I'm in Windows 8.1 setup right now, partitioning [03:52] I gonna dual boot with ubuntu [03:52] azizLIGHT: is this your first rodeo ? [03:52] But I want nice disk/partition size in ubuntu [03:53] azizLIGHT: well that is your first mistake using windows [03:53] And don't care about win8.1 sizes [03:53] I need it for games [03:53] there are serveral docs on how to do that [03:54] On how to get nice round numbers for disk partition via the windows 8.1 setup? Please link [03:54] you want a good game for windows ... pull the plug take the box to a cliff, and throw it over [03:54] OK... [03:55] azizLIGHT: you never gonna get nice round numbers because of overhead [03:55] What is overhead [03:56] you harddiski is say 100G, it will report smaller because after it is partitions some of it is use to store info about the sectors and fs that is used [03:56] * LeoDee laughs [03:58] How much is used [03:59] lol such misinformation. [03:59] Windows says I got 232.9 GB (238474 MB)... And gparted says I got 232.89 GiB [04:00] azizLIGHT: that all depends on tha hardrive who made it, what size the drive is, and what fs is used [04:01] It's a "250" gb samsung 840 EVO ssd [04:01] azizLIGHT: for all intents and purposes that is the same size [04:01] azizLIGHT: you have to try it and find out [04:02] * whoever thinks this is azizLIGHT first rodeo [04:02] I have to try and find out what? [04:03] how much of the hardrive you actually get to use [04:04] azizLIGHT: just pick an fs, set it , check the size, if not repeat previous, till you find one that you like , just use ext2/3 [04:05] or get a pen and a few pads of paper for all your computing needs [04:06] Ok [04:06] I'll do it [04:06] Thanks [04:06] the pads of papper [04:07] hello [04:07] problem [04:07] or if your afaid what you write will get lost over time and degrade due to the ink, may i suggest a slab of grannit and a chisel [04:07] MDTech-us_MAN: hello, solver [04:07] I have a IPv6 address connected to pfsense [04:08] I set a static IP aad I can ping google.com [04:08] the problem is that on the console I get "ICMPv6 RA: ndisc_router_discovery() failed to add default route" all over the place [04:08] what does resolv.conf say [04:09] the router has both Router advertisements and DHCPv6 enabled [04:10] MDTech-us_MAN: can you pastebin it [04:10] its 3 lines [04:10] can I paste here?

[04:17] xangua: how big is your ubuntu now [04:17] I do get nameserver 8.8.8.8 [04:19] and yes I did restart the service [04:20] azizLIGHT: time to do some reading http://is.gd/bt5YZe http://is.gd/n7mCpy [04:20] MDTech-us_MAN: so can you browse the web [04:22] * whoever bed time [04:23] somsip: how to tell my bios is efi [04:24] Or legacy [04:24] azizLIGHT: no idea. Search your mobo spec maybe [04:24] And therefore whether I need efi portion or bios-boot [04:24] look for efi setting in bios setup configuration [04:24] Mine has both [04:24] It says I can choose [04:25] 3 options [04:25] then your mobo supports both and you pick one or the other [04:25] Uefi only, legacy only, or Uefi and legacy [04:25] Ok [04:25] the last one will let the os decide [04:25] it'll install to the mode that you boot the install media in [04:25] !uefi | azizLIGHT [04:25] azizLIGHT: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware.

[05:53] jorenl_, inconsistent display can often be solved by proper display configuration for the GPU [05:53] Abhijit_: dunno if this helps (search for journalctl) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers [05:54] somsip, okey. will check. [05:54] cfhowlett: My GPU graphics are fine, the issues I have are purely aesthetic. The default ubuntu unity tray icons are monochrome (and become colored when a notification pops up, say) but a lot of smaller applications that add notification area functionality have inconsistent theming. I am looking for a way to override that with my own icons. [05:55] jorenl_, so this is really custom theming? [05:57] cfhowlett: if you want to call it that, yes. Although I'm trying to integrate non-matching, 3rd party apps with the default theme. (I know this might seem like a rediculous detail, but these icons *are* always visible.) [05:58] jorenl_, not ridiculous. in fact, fairly typical *buntu user behavior :) [05:59] jorenl_, this seems to be a likely start point http://sourcedigit.com/8704-customize-ubuntu-install-ubuntu-14-04-themes/ [06:01] cfhowlett: so I'm perfectly fine with the default ubuntu theme. It's changing 3rd party apps' icons (not included in the default theme) that I'm looking into. (say, skype, calendar-indicator, alarm-clock, notification history, ...) [06:02] jorenl_, sorry, I've no suggestions beyond this. ask around some more. [06:02] I wouldn't mind if this was a little involved, if I need to write some software to do it I could just share it for whoever else is bothered by the incosistency. [06:02] Thanks a lot for the help so far! [06:04] jorenl_, happy2help [06:04] i'd just switch to xubuntu. [06:05] daftykins: well, that's a little intense [06:05] ;) [06:05] honestly something's wrong if you're worried about the colours of icons [06:06] daftykins: that's so invalids, there's a reason designers care about things like that in all software [06:06] unbuntu-fr [06:06] !fr | louis__ [06:06] although when you say they're black and white, that suggests there is something wrong [06:06] louis__: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [06:07] jorenl_: yeah designers, but not users. [06:07] daftykins: we;; I care, I'm a user [06:07] well* [06:07] them only occasionally having colour does sound a bit like a graphical problem [06:08] daftykins: I can assure you I'm not having any graphical issues. [06:09] then how come you have that affect when it's not the norm? [06:09] daftykins: what I'm seeing is perfectly standard behavior. All default icons are in white unity theme, but some apps that I've installed aren't and I'd like to change that. [06:10] i see [06:10] good luck [06:12] Hm, the http download for latest ubuntu-desktop 64bit gives me 32bit no matter how many times I redownload it and install it. So I finally went alternative downloads and used torrents. This time it finally actually installed 64bit ubuntu! Something wrong with the link to regular download? It does say amd64 in the iso name but that doesn't seem to be correct... [06:12] Mattias, what is the link you tried to use? [06:15] ObrienDave: from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download I go to ubuntu desktop -> choose 64bit, press download -> then I get this iso: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04.1/ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso [06:16] ObrienDave: I downloaded the same one a month ago, but I never noticed I had 32bit OS until... I had to use my 64bit virtual machines. Which totally failed. so I thought I missdownloaded the wrong iso, downloaded this one again yesterday and it still installed 32bit... [06:16] I have a 32-bit ubuntu (12.04) - I have lots of data in my home directory. What is the easiest way of upgrading to a 64-bit machine without backing up the home directory(I dont want ubuntu installer to erase my home directory) [06:17] you should backup regardless [06:17] by the way, i have a 64-bit machine. I want to upgrade to a 64-bit machine [06:17] rsv: What I do is, just zip down the entire home directory with permissions. I actually have my home on its own harddrive. Then I just mount it after install [06:17] rsv: Do you have /home on a separate partition? Otherwise you will need to backup. And as daftykins points out, backing up is good regardless [06:17] rsv, you must clean install 64 bit. backup. torrent the 64 bit. make a !home and install [06:17] mount it in /etc/fstab that is [06:17] daftykins: i dont have any backup media which is more than 100GB [06:17] !home | rsv [06:17] rsv: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving [06:18] hateball: my home is part of "/" [06:18] rsv: I'd suggest get a dedicated home drive :) format it to ext4 and just move all files there [06:18] ubottu: i knew that. But unfortunately, my home is part of the "root" directory and i have only one partition [06:18] rsv: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [06:19] rsv: Do you have spare space on the drive? You could re-partition and move the data, using gparted-live for instance [06:19] rsv: And then reinstall 64-bit, mounting the new partition as /home [06:19] hateball: no i dont have spare space [06:19] I'd hate it if the install-script accidently erased the entire disk :P which is why I would never have /home on its own partition like that [06:20] hateball: i guess i know what i need to do. i will borrow a harddrive from a friend or someone and copy the home directory [06:20] rsv: buy a good ssd for the actual system install, then buy a cheap large regular drive for /home [06:21] Mattias: i dont have money to buy an ssd. I have a 1TB of usb drive. But i cant touch it as it is full of movies and images [06:21] rsv: It's a pain, but so it goes === jack- is now known as Guest46538 === Guest46538 is now known as jack [07:01] Has Ubuntu added support for AMD Based Drivers for gpu's ?

I'm booting from USB3. I'd like to report the issue. how can I find the previous boot log on my system? (I booted back into the 3.14 kernel) [07:46] Lope: uh, the latest kernel in 14.04 is 3.13 [07:46] hey guys, would anyone know if I can make custom username in ncat [07:46] instead of user* [07:47] Ben64: yeah, but these kernels have been compiled for trusty: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.15-rc2-trusty/ [07:47] Lope: no support is provided for those, you're on your own if you choose to use them [07:49] Ben64: I'm not asking for support, I want to report the issue so that when they work on the release candidate they know about it. I want to help. [07:50] Lope: i don't believe there is method of doing so [07:53] yeah it looks kind of complicated, hopefully they'll find it. https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/lkml/reporting-bugs.html [07:53] I was hoping a new kernel will solve my issue. Lately I can't shut down or reboot. When I try to do that, my PC goes to sleep instead. [07:53] How much space for root partition for ubuntu 14.04 desktop? [07:53] Recommendation? [07:54] Root partition separate from /home [07:54] azizLIGHT: you did this for hours earlier... [07:54] Yes [07:54] Yes I did [07:54] then why ask again? [07:54] azizLIGHT: whoever gave you lots of advice and I gave you links to the ubuntu FAQs/guides [07:54] Lope: the kernel version already moved to 3.16. 3.15rc2 is just a kernel release candidate from 3.15 which was used by the person who packaged the ppa. it is outdated now and should not be used. [07:55] I read all the links too [07:55] I learnt about gpt [07:55] Lope: using packages from ppa repos is not always a good idea [07:56] azizLIGHT: no one can give you a "right" answer. It all depends on your system and your use case. You *have* to make your own mind up once you've read the guidelines [07:56] But they didn't mention sizr [07:56] Ok [07:56] Oct 02 2014 21:20:08 azizLIGHT: time to do some reading http://is.gd/bt5YZe http://is.gd/n7mCpy [07:56] Is 10gb a good size [07:56] azizLIGHT: that's why. There is no right answer. Just lots and lots of lots of answers that will work [07:56] read that again [07:56] Ben64: those are good links [07:57] azizLIGHT: so accept responsibility for your build and make a decision based upon what you have learned [07:57] Ok [07:58] I am scared because it says your system will be locked [07:58] If full [07:58] POVaddct: thanks, I can't see any trusty kernels beyond 3.15rc2? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [07:58] azizLIGHT, so ... make it more than 10 gb [08:00] Lope: of course. distro makers usually pick a kernel version existing at the time of the distro release and keep that version. they only make bugfixes and security fixes for that version. [08:01] Lope: so it is normal the upstream kernel version moves away from that. the distro makers decide which parts of newer kernel they backport into their older version. [08:02] Okay. Lately my system suspends instead of shutdown/reboot. Any ideas how to find out the issue? [08:04] gonna try reboot again [08:07] Lope: how do you shutdown/reboot? with some button? (i don't use the default desktop here) [08:07] just from the main menu [08:07] it used to work :/ [08:08] brb [08:09] Can lvm resize / and /home === quem_ is now known as quem [08:10] If its inside a fixed luks container [08:17] hi [08:17] hay [08:17] question: how can I make a shortkey on my keyboard that switches "synclient HorizTwoFingerScroll" to 1 and 0? [08:18] right now I use two shortcuts for both 1 and 0 but I'd rather use one [08:22] every day, i boot up my PC (ubuntu 14.04) open up all my dev software, and write code the whole day. In the last week, when I try shut down or reboot, my PC suspends instead. Then I press the power button, it powers up, and then shuts down/reboots (depending which I asked for). Now as a test, I've done a fresh boot, got my dev environment going and then rebooted (without any trouble), 2x. It seems to only happen after extended use. Any [08:22] ideas? [08:22] Hello world! [08:23] Lope, did you check your power options? [08:24] Any networking gurus around at the moment? [08:24] I own a CCNA certificate but I wouldn't call myself a guru [08:25] Quatroking: my options are all fine, they haven't changed in the last month, and as I said, I've just tested a quick boot, starting up my dev environment and then rebooting without any problems, so the options are fine. [08:27] I wonder if it's because my hard drives have gone to sleep when I shut down. I boot off the SSD, but my sda (working, but unused) is a mechanical hard drive. [08:27] Because after a fresh boot the mechanical drive is probably spinning for a few mins. [08:27] cleane installed ubuntu 14.04, replacing a working 13.10. now I can't open system settings. tried reinstalling, but same again. system settings does not open via gui or terminal. any ideas please? [08:27] try it out, lope [08:28] boot the machine, wait until the hdd spins down, object it to your tests [08:28] I'm trying to get a solid answer one way or another if bridge_fd, bridge_hello and bridge_*age* in /etc/network/interfaces do nothing if STP is off, anyone know? [08:28] I'm jealous though, at least you can suspend, my laptop has a dead GPU and my nouveau driver won't resume :( [08:30] Quatroking: how can I know if the HDD is spinning or not? (it's inside a laptop) [08:30] I've actually got the option "spin down hard disks when possible" unticked. [08:30] There goes that theory. [08:31] I can also try shutdown -p instead of -h [08:32] hey guys [08:33] just want to say that it's been a couple of days with 14.04 and my nvidia heating problem that i had has been gone ever since i turned down all my bios intel turbo and sata performance modes [08:33] Lope, well, a good ear would help you with detecting if it's spinning or not [08:33] :P [08:33] max heat ive seen so far is 61C but it's a heck load better than 89C [08:34] Morning [08:34] What's linux firmware?

[09:13] sudosh is a shell [09:13] exactly ^ [09:13] not in ubuntu [09:14] http://sourceforge.net/projects/sudosh/ [09:14] sudosh is a sudo shell, filter and can be used as a login shell. Sudosh records all keystrokes and output and can play back the session as just like a VCR. [09:14] ok? [09:14] Guest15257, so .. it's definitely not in ubuntu by default. suggest you ask the packagers/programmers for support [09:14] Guest15257: ask the maker of that program. its not ubuntu ones [09:15] okay === arif-ali is now known as arif_afk [09:15] the point is I was looking for the answer to my problem...

[11:30] hateball: pardon my ignorance but why doesn't piping one command to another work instead of the -exec option? [11:30] yep now i'm on live cd and kiwi irc hoping that i find solution here [11:31] hi [11:31] jishjish: because you'd have to use a for loop converting the results of find into a variable to push into rm [11:31] hi [11:31] hateball: but doesn't find -type d find a list of directories and RM take as input a list of directories to delete? [11:32] jishjish: I think find would just send the first result to the piped command, or something garbled [11:32] borsoko: how is your graphics on your live cd?

[11:32] very good everything works [11:32] That is, switching between instances of a program too? [11:33] jishjish: if for some reason you want to pipe, you'll need to use xargs [11:33] hateball whats that [xargs] all about? [11:35] jishjish: it takes what you feed it and sends to the command after, so rm doesnt go nuts. anyhow, using -exec is better imo... only spawns one command and it's simple enough [11:36] i think maybe was some update or something like that, i suppose it's software issue or driver [11:38] hello people [11:38] i need help [11:39] cfhowlett: I booted from CD to my ubuntu to change the fstab file, but grub still looks for a device not listed here. leading to grub rescue [11:39] why my usb 3.0 is not recognized by vmware / kali linux ?

[15:04] it is [15:04] MagicSpud, login to the one you keep, delete the one you don't want [15:04] iptable ... it is working better than the new one.

[15:06] and.. a lot of packages are installed/deleted [15:06] tykayn-ubuntu: which mount points does it say dont exist? [15:06] iptable cfhowlett the new admin wont. the program works but I only see the default ubuntu wallpaper..and I thought that if this happens with this app it could happen to anyother so this new admin is a crap compared with the old one...there must be something missing...some group or permission... [15:06] tykayn-ubuntu: try sudo mount -B /sys /mnt/sys [15:06] all of them [15:07] mount: mount point /mnt/sys does not exist [15:07] MagicSpud, i recall you stating you did a bunch of strange configurations, right? [15:07] cfhowlett do you think downgrading it would do?¿ would that give more skills to the new admin? for it is kind of handicapped now [15:07] cfhowlett ? [15:07] cfhowlett like what? [15:07] MagicSpud, downgrading to desktop users removes all the admin privileges [15:08] eeee: i guess these mountpoints are not there because the live cd has another root [15:08] tykayn-ubuntu: you are in the root of the livecd [15:09] cfhowlett and upgrading an account to admin gives it all the privileges? I just used the users menu under configuration...I mean no shell commands just gui [15:09] tykayn-ubuntu: type ls -ld /sys /mnt/sys [15:09] eeee, ..

[15:24] tykayn-ubuntu: that's a bios-boot partition, it's cause you're using bios (not uefi) with gpt [15:24] Is there a way to limit the mic-boost a little bit ? [15:24] tykayn-ubuntu: it's just a 1mb partition [15:24] hold on.. [15:24] 38 kib is used on it [15:24] I'm seeing apache2 in my /etc/init.d/ and in my /etc/rc1.d and rc6.d directories.. I assume that means it's running on boot?

[15:38] brb [15:39] i guess this is not the windows disk [15:39] tykayn-ubuntu: not so good at french [15:39] yeah sorry [15:39] i think it's complaining that it's a gpt with no bios-boot partition [15:39] so it's not possible to install or something [15:40] yes thats it [15:40] eeee, unable to locate that package.. .:-S [15:40] hi, using ubuntu 14.04. at boot time my system hangs on errors "I/O error on device /dev/sdb". this is a secondary hard drive. i would like to just disable it, i removed the mount lines from /etc/fstab but it still hangs on the same errors. how can i prevent this from happening? my primary (boot) drive is fine but my secondary drive's problems prevent me from booting correctly.à [15:41] tykayn-ubuntu: i dont know if you can easily create a bios-boot partition and get it to work [15:41] john_doe_jr: you could make a batch in a text file of 5Gb of data, then tell rsync to sync that batch selection [15:41] i have gparted [15:41] tykayn-ubuntu: alternatively you could have the bios boot /dev/sde and that would load grub, and maybe you could boot windows from there [15:41] so i guess i can create a partition [15:41] tats: I'm not an expert or anything, but have you looked at your grub settings? [15:41] tats: soumds like a dying drive. Id replace it asap [15:41] mh [15:42] tykayn-ubuntu: do you want to try that? [15:42] tykayn-ubuntu: would be easier than creating the bios-boot [15:42] ActionParsnip: any tips on how to recover my data? [15:42] tats: use your backups. You do make backups right? [15:42] ActionParsnip: good idea…I wish there was a way to do it just as a command line option though [15:42] i should know where is windows 7 located [15:42] ActionParsnip: I have some but for that drive they might not be up to date [15:43] tykayn-ubuntu: give it a shot, sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sde [15:43] eeee, ... [15:43] john_doe_jr: you'll need to make a text file of names in cli, then feed it to rsync [15:43] eeee: i have windows on /dev/sdb [15:43] ActionParsnip: is ddrescue any good? [15:43] NewAss: are you sure you typed it correctly? [15:43] no.. i am stupid.. remember?? [15:43] ubuntu is on /dev/sde4 [15:43] tykayn-ubuntu: which disk are you booting? [15:43] yes i am sure [15:43] #koumbit [15:44] tats: you could try mounting it once you are booted, ddrescue may do it, the image may be partial but you will need a drive of equal or larger size to spit the image to [15:44] tats: can you see why backups are a good idea? [15:44] eeee: i am on the live cd [15:44] not sure i understood your question [15:44] tats: and keeping them decent is important [15:44] NewAss: it's not that, it's that you said it was giving an error before, ( it was located ) [15:45] NewAss: that's why i ask if you typed it correctly [15:45] tykayn-ubuntu: are you absolutely sure win7 is on /dev/sdb ? [15:45] ActionParsnip: yes these are less important data actually (big data like movies and stuff). my priority stuff is backed up in like 4 different places. :) [15:45] yes, there is the windows folder and programs in it [15:46] ok [15:46] i did typed in correctly..

[15:46] \o/ [15:46] tykayn-ubuntu: update-grub [15:46] tats: try ddrescue, it may work but its a lot more effort than keeping backups good. If you did you would just get a new drive and restore. Now you have to do a lot of messing around to maybe get some data..... [15:46] ActionParsnip: but right now i need to focus on something else i can't deal with that. is there any way to tell the system to ignore that drive so i can get through the day? [15:46] i was promissed user firendly OS, not nerv destroyer.. :-------S [15:47] puting in command [15:47] tats: there maybe a grub option to ignore the drive [15:47] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8486651/ [15:47] NewAss: no OS is faultless [15:47] not sure if good output [15:47] ActionParsnip: good, ill try that. thanks!

[17:46] the package [17:46] tirengarfio: to install a new package, its the same command. [17:47] but what did you say "only"? is there something else to update the app? [17:47] tirengarfio: what do you want to install? [17:47] I want to update virtualbox [17:48] tirengarfio: then run standard updates with: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [17:48] tirengarfio, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [17:49] i just want to let you guys know you look pretty good today [17:49] yoloswag420, thank you <3 [17:49] <3 [17:50] tirengarfio: is the virtualbox you current run not working ok? [17:51] well, Im having a problem trying to run Windows 7 guest [17:51] Im getting The VM session was closed before any attempt to power it on. when trying to run.. [17:51] tirengarfio, Yes I was about to ask if you had installed by some other means than the Ubuntu repos, i.e. manually installing a .deb package [17:51] No, i installed it using apt-get [17:51] tirengarfio: and what did the virtualbox people tell you? [17:52] tirengarfio: the version from the repos will install Win7. Just remember to mount your CD before launching virtualbox === derk0pf is now known as derk0pf|NA [17:53] ActionParsnip, I dont understand, I had installed Windows 7 running ok, but now when I try to boot it I get that error [17:54] tirengarfio: I suggest you ask in #vbox then [17:55] I set up ubuntu on a vps recently. The first thing I did was remove root's access to login via ssh and set up enforced pub key auth for all users using ssh. [17:55] recently some chinese IP has been pounding my sshd w/ attempts on root [17:56] should I worry at all? [17:56] CaffeineAddict: No. [17:56] easy, pound them harder [17:57] CaffeineAddict: you can set your sytem to block the IP or if you can, block the IP at your router [17:57] ActionParsnip: fail2ban yes? [17:57] just ddos them, i dont see what the big problem is [17:57] hello, i have file /etc/init/pulseaudio.conf how i can start this service automaticly? [17:57] CaffeineAddict: Without your *private* keys, the most that they can do is: not much. [17:58] loa: Read the file, it has a "start on" section. [17:58] and the bandwidth and proc power they are wasting is trivial yes? [17:58] CaffeineAddict: Yep. [17:58] k [17:59] jpds, thx. [17:59] CaffeineAddict: And if they could do anything, the reaction from the global community would be something on a scale larger than shellshock and heartbleed combined. === Caffeine_Gir is now known as Taquito_Gir [18:03] but jpds, what if they hack the mainframe [18:03] yoloswag420: Shut.

[18:18] * s4my AM OUT BITCHES [18:18] j0hnskot: I dont' use twitter.. ... but if it works on one browser and not the other.... a probability is a web-standard feature being used at the page is supported in chrome but not in firefox, which for a service like twitter I'd find it very unlikely for them no to test for [18:19] bprompt: it seems that i'm able to login using a private session.

[18:21] bprompt: as i said , i can login with firefox but only on private session (meaning no cache or saved passwords). Something is messed up with firefox cache. I'll try some things [18:21] j0hnskot: a private session disallows certain info from the browser to be send over..... so the browser look like without any previous history or cookies...., that may mean twitter if finding something in your offline storage for firefox, DOM or cookies or else, and acting accordingly [18:21] daftykins, yeah, he was pretty rude [18:22] Hi, I wanna use obfs bridges.

Propose as a backport? [18:28] daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8487540/ [18:29] acovrig: lol, the user literally *IS* 777 [18:29] acovrig: you messed up [18:29] how? [18:29] dpkg created the user [18:29] look at your paste [18:29] look at the owner and group of transmission [18:29] drwxrwxrwx 3 777 debian-transmission [18:29] the user is 777. [18:30] acovrig: "sudo chown -R debian-transmission: /var/transmission" [18:30] wow, it took me a *long* time to realize I did a chown 777 somewhere instead of a chmod 777 *sigh* [18:31] acovrig: also your 777'ing behaviour shows a lack of understanding, you really shouldn't be doing this [18:31] i'm half willing to bet that's actually debian and not ubuntu, too [18:32] acovrig: never ever use 777 [18:32] it is technically ubuntu (lsb_release -a returns Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS), and I'm using 777 for troubleshooting, I plan to have it be 774 when I get it working [18:32] lol. [18:33] acovrig: sounds also wrong [18:34] daftykins, I bet I installed a debian transmission-daemon in ubuntu, sources.lst reveals several mirrors.digitalocean.com/ubuntu entries, interesting [18:35] iceroot, how? I'm the only human using this system and its a temp dir... [18:36] acovrig: even if you are the only human, its always good to do it the save way [18:37] acovrig: and "the only human" was valid before all this us/nsa stuff. you are not alone :) but i guess this is off topic here [18:37] I have a weird problem. For some reason, after a while, one of the cores of my processor is always working 100%, causing heating. It wasn't like that before. I'm using 12.04.5 [18:37] iceroot, what would you recommend I use? 700? === CoreIT84 is now known as Corey84 [18:38] acovrig: 750 normally, so you can edit it, the group can read it and no others can read/write/execute it, which should be the default for nearly everything [18:41] daftykins, oddly it still isn't working... http://paste.ubuntu.com/8487622/ is my updated permissions [18:42] acovrig: you're running commands with sudo that don't even need it, this is really bad practice [18:42] acovrig, I think umask needs to be 022 [18:43] sudo make me a sandwich [18:43] CaffeineAddict: take the XKCD references elsewhere thanks [18:43] sorry [18:50] good evening you all [18:50] Mornin'!

[19:33] but only in that program won't work [19:33] i tried to format it in FAT32 still unlucky.

[19:58] Version-wise? Ubuntu 12.04. [19:58] ckildegaard, Who installed it? [19:58] He sent it to me clean, except that there was a user-account already set up. [19:58] hey you know what i just thought about? with a live 14 cd you might be able to just upgrade [19:58] that MIGHT fix it [19:58] ckildegaard, Someone you know and trust? [19:58] The person the machine came from. [19:59] eBay. Had good feedback, though. [19:59] ckildegaard: read what i jus said^^^ [19:59] ckildegaard, I would install a new OS period. [20:00] i agree^^ [20:00] brb ck [20:00] I actually wanted to go to Elementary OS, which is based on...I believe 14.04. It doesn't like my machine because of the apparent lack of pae. [20:00] Because Ubuntu has decided that everyone MUST be able to use more than 4GB of RAM...even people who don't have any need or desire for it at all. [20:01] Bleh I am stuck with an error that is blocking up installing app, my software center and system updates [20:01] ckildegaard, Scant support for elementary, I would consider an OS with help that is readily available like ubuntu....etc [20:01] Can anyone help me with this type of error [20:02] ubuntu or debian is deff your best option [20:02] ckildegaard, There is no 4 gig memory limit needed. [20:02] basically same OS [20:02] The package system is broken: Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them, since they are a common source of problems. [20:02] Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f [20:02] you can also create SWAP [20:02] its apt-get -f install [20:02] thats for dependencies [20:02] yes but that gives me this error [20:03] Radical_3dward, Pastebin errors.

[20:03] bubbasaures: as I understand pae, the idea is to allow 32-bit computers to run more than 4GB of RAM. I don't want t, nor need to, but apparently I cannot install any recent version of Ubuntu because my computer does not support pae and it just won't run otherwise. [20:04] ckildegaard, Install xubuntu or lubuntu, than install the ubuntu desktop if needed. [20:04] I know what i was installing when it snagged up [20:04] ckildegaard, Not a pae ubuntu is probably a bit busy, the other DE are lighter. [20:05] i will get error msges for all that too [20:05] ck: im using xubuntu right now as we speak [20:05] its a good distro [20:05] ckildegaard, what's the message you are getting? what's your cpu [20:05] bynarie, You can tab compete nicks.

[20:08] i love ubuntu [20:08] i just dont like unity [20:08] thank you. all joking aside, i actually have a question about twinview [20:09] hahaha [20:09] palms, Details to the channel help.

[20:10] hi [20:10] Okay I'm done. [20:10] lol [20:10] are there any linux tools in the repo, that I could use to verify the existence of a remote email address? [20:11] not even sure the mail transfer protocols support this? [20:11] Sounds like spam database building tools to me. I doubt it. [20:11] litropy, -- not my bag! [20:12] hroi, the only way to determine if a mail-adress exist is to try to send a mail to it [20:12] can someone help me please? I have a lenovo b570 and ubuntu 14.04.1. I can restart it just fine but not shut down - when I try the latter it hangs in the shut down screen after two seconds. would a reinstall help? [20:12] hroi, you could set up a listener for the mail daemon's response. [20:13] suik, have you visited http://askubuntu.com/questions/236476/how-do-i-diagnose-hang-on-shutdown [20:13] maybe that will help? [20:13] suik: Did the shutdown work properly at any point before this? [20:13] no, it was a fresh installation [20:14] and also how are you shutting down? thru gui or command line? try both and see if any difference, suik [20:14] suik: Then reinstalling isn't likely to fix it. [20:15] hroi: smtp sort of supports this. You can ask it to verify an address as deliverable. This doesn't guarantee delivery however, just that the next hop *thinks* it can be delivered, not the same thing. [20:16] hello [20:16] For forcepae, can I use stock Ubuntu, or does it have to be a community version (lubuntu, xubuntu)? [20:16] reboot works from gui and terminal, shutdown -h now from neither [20:17] suik: Is there any informative message from shutdown -h now as to why it can't, or just nothing [20:17] ckildegaard: I'm guessing they'd be the same, since it's all the same kernel, just different apps... [20:17] okay [20:18] ckildegaard: it's just a guess, you'll need to confirm... [20:18] it hangs in the shutdown screen with the dots which go from left to right stopping moving [20:18] ckildegaard, about the ram issue? do you know if making a swap file will help? [20:18] ckildegaard, The mini net would be another, in the end it is how hard you want to work and what you understand [20:18] Hmm...well Unity will run like crap on this, I'm sure, but I'm going to use a different DE anyway. [20:19] suik: can you login at shutdown and see what's left running? [20:19] I have enough RAM, Ubuntu just won't install because my processor doesn't support pae. And since I now can't boot the version I have, people want me to install 14.04 [20:19] how do I do that? [20:20] suik: you can sometimes get a console session using alt-f2 or something similar. Then you run ps ax and tell us what you see... [20:21] oh ok i see what you are saying [20:21] id just stick with 12 and reinstall [20:21] use livecd to backup [20:22] or go with another distro(debian) [20:22] is console session the right term? I can't google for it. alt f2 just opens the system search [20:22] and BTW... if you have a crappy inet connection and need a physical CD i can mail you one, ckildegaard [20:22] in /var/log/auth.log I have a bunch of lines of ` pam_unix(cron:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0)` [20:23] like 50 in a row of open and closed in the same second [20:23] suik alt+f2 is run command. If you are looking for a console try ctrl+alt+f1 [20:23] what might be causing that? [20:24] CaffeineAddict, maybe bg proceesses? [20:24] It is pretty crappy, although it doesn't look like it'll be TOO bad today.... [20:24] ok well pm me if you want me to mail you one... i can dl w/e distro you want... i got 50mbps connection [20:24] (sorry, that was to bynarie) [20:27] how can you tell if a reboot is required after running apt-get upgrade? [20:28] rubick, It will inform you. [20:28] rubick: Yes, no reboot is required, in noc case but installing a new kernel package. [20:28] *no === AlphaBeta is now known as PsiOmega === PsiOmega is now known as AlphaBeta [20:29] Afternoon [20:29] Hi, i'm trying to install the flash plugin in chromium, i already asked my question on #chromium-support but no one has answered me [20:29] I've never noticed a message stating a reboot was required, hence the reason I was asking [20:29] soulisson, Chromium has its own flash [20:30] TheBigDeal: No, it doesnt. [20:30] TheBigDeal, I don't think so chrome has its own flash not chromium [20:30] Chromium does not ship with the PepperFlash API - chrome does. [20:30] soulisson, you can also use apt-get install flashplugin-installer [20:30] bekks, PepperFlash [20:30] bekks, I didn't talk about PepperFlash [20:30] does apt-get restart services automatically if required after an upgrade? security or otherwise? [20:30] TheBigDeal: Chromium does not ship with PepperFlash - chrome does. === Hobbyboy|Sleep is now known as Hobbyboy [20:31] bynarie, i alredy tried [20:31] oh ok [20:31] soulisson, did you try the one of webupd8? [20:31] I tried also to download the tar file for the Adobe web site [20:32] soulisson, try this http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/install-pepper-flash-player-for.html [20:32] the tty session or whatever is called ends before the shutdown screen starts, it stops at two orange dots again [20:32] I copied libflashplayer.so in /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins and /usr/lib/chromium-browser [20:32] I also did a cp -r usr/* /usr [20:32] Loshki: the tty session or whatever is called ends before the shutdown screen starts, it stops at two orange dots again [20:33] soulisson, this 14.04? [20:33] soulisson: That cp command pretty much messes up things. [20:33] bubbasaures, yes, 14.04.1 LTS [20:33] soulisson, then apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree for chromium [20:34] soulisson, check the 3rd party repos are ticked on. [20:34] ok fuck that piece of shit. I am getting centos [20:34] kostkon, i already did that :( [20:35] soulisson, The partners and independent repos. [20:35] thanks for the help though [20:35] soulisson, i suffered from these problems too [20:35] soulisson, what's your CPU. flash requires SSE2 support which even some recent AMD cpus lack [20:35] soulisson, did you update your ubuntu and chromium to the latest versions? [20:36] TheBigDeal, yes [20:37] soulisson, How are you checking your flash? [20:37] soulisson, yotube? [20:37] TheBigDeal, on the Adobe Web site as well with chrome://plugins [20:37] chip-maker AMD added support for SSE2 with the introduction of their Opteron and Athlon 64 ranges of AMD64 64-bit CPUs in 2003 [20:38] Also i'm following an online course which requires flash [20:38] soulisson, your flash works well in firefox? [20:38] My CPU is the following Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3230M CPU @ 2.60GHz [20:39] TheBigDeal, to be honest, i didn't try on FF [20:39] TheBigDeal, I don't use much firefox [20:40] soulisson, sudo apt-get autoclean/autoremove/upgrade restart :D [20:40] TheBigDeal, should i restart my system after the upgrade ? [20:41] soulisson, if that is required ys [20:41] soulisson, that's a bug as far as i can tell, and it should be reported [20:42] TheBigDeal, ok, i did the upgrade but it was already up to date, so i guess it's a bug ...

You can possibly find some other options here: http://alternativeto.net/software/synergy/ [20:49] apparently it does [20:49] neat [20:50] wait, how old is this? [20:50] the website is talking about windows 95 [20:50] lol [20:50] Quatroking: You have to pay to use Synergy now? If it's open-source, couldn't you still use it for free? [20:51] rypervenche, I can access the nightly builds but I'd have to compile if I wanted the latest stable [20:51] Quatroking: Then that's you're answer :) [20:51] either way I'd prefer to run something completely different now, as a useless protest that won't affect anything [20:51] it just feels wrong now :( [20:52] Quatroking: I'm still confused as to how they make you pay for it. If it's in the repos, do they make you pay for it before you can use it? [20:53] the version that's in the ubuntu repo is outdated [20:54] Ah, I see. [20:54] apparently, because only 0.002% of users donated, they think that forcing users to pay $5 will make them earn more [20:54] I don't get it [20:55] I'm sure someone will eventually fork it and make it easier to install the latest version. That's how it always happens. [20:55] why make open source software if you're concerned about money [20:55] ciaoo [20:55] rypervenche, no kidding, just look at xchat on windows [20:56] running hexchat 2.10.1 happily over here on my win8.1 desktop [20:56] Even changes that we don't like are being shunned. MariaDB becoming the standard and everyone leaving MySQL, for example. [20:56] what's wrong about mysql? [20:56] other than oracle [20:56] We should probably take this elsewhere.

You would need for it to write to a file, probably in /tmp to keep track of which one it's on, or there is probably a way to find out which one it is currently set to and have it check that. [21:01] what am i doing wrong [21:01] chmod +x [21:01] mega1 [21:02] I have zero experience writing scripts [21:02] have you tried that? [21:02] for ubuntu that is [21:02] Mega1: You are probably not using the correct path. [21:02] it's a bug in JDK that has been there since 2010 and oracle is too lazy to fix it, so switching this off and on is the only solution :/ [21:02] Mega1: What is the exact command you are trying to run? Your shebang may be off as well. [21:02] Mega1, try using chmod +x file, or make sure you are using the correct path/exact path [21:03] bynarie: If it's 755, then it's executable already. [21:03] rypervenche, thank you i did not know that [21:03] im just trying to help [21:03] ^^ It's all good. 7 = rwx and 5 = rx [21:03] oh ok [21:04] 3 = read only?

[21:08] am in the dir of the file and can see it [21:08] Mega1: Did you type ./myscript.sh ? [21:09] Mega1: making sure to use the ./ in front of the name of your script? [21:09] rypervenche, whats the diff between using "exec bla.file", "./file.file" and "sh file.file" === CoreIT84 is now known as corey84 === corey84 is now known as Corey84 [21:10] ./ =current directory. [21:10] azizLIGHT, ubuntu cannot answer that [21:11] So what you're telling me sounds like is that Netflix is enforcing the limitation, it's not because of my computer or Internet [21:11] ./ executes any type of file? [21:12] azizLIGHT: take it up with them, it's their service [21:12] when i do ls the file is green [21:12] bynarie: Don't use "exec". Use either the path to the file (either full path: /home/user/myscript.sh, or relative path: ./myscript.sh) or you can type the name of the interpreter of the script before it (if it's a bash script, "bash myscript.sh", if it's a sh script, "sh myscript.sh", python script, "python myscript.py", etc.) [21:13] azizLIGHT, maybe your ISP, who knows? http://blog.netflix.com/2013/09/highest-quality-hd-now-available-to-all.html [21:13] ah gotcha [21:13] thank you rypervenche [21:15] Anyone know if there is a way to get fail2ban to send email from a particular address by default?

[21:19] I've got all the displays running, but the desktop only shows on two [21:20] mynaras: install the driver for your cards then use their software to configure the displays [21:20] (proprietary driver) [21:20] I have the proprietary drivers from nvidia, I've configured the X Server as well [21:20] via nvidia-settings? [21:20] tgm4883: They don't. I wasn't aware that anyone used fail2ban for anything aside from SSH. [21:21] yeah [21:21] I can move my cursor to the third monitor, but no windows or desktop on it [21:22] tgm4883: at one time fail2ban was a honking big script, so you could edit it. Is that still the case? === __TheDodd__ is now known as thedodd [21:23] tgm4883: For what it's worth, if you are using fail2ban for SSH, on fail2ban's main site, they say "Fail2Ban is able to reduce the rate of incorrect authentications attempts however it cannot eliminate the risk that weak authentication presents. Configure services to use only two factor or public/private authentication mechanisms if you really want to protect services." [21:23] How do I make window occupy left half of screen using keyboard shortcut? In Windows it's winkey+left arrow [21:23] Loshki: I actually just figured it out. It was working on one server and not the other. Apparently in 12.04 is configured in every sendmail conf file (there are 5), in 14.04 it's a much smarter setup configuring it in only 1 file [21:24] Loshki: for fail2ban that is [21:24] tgm4883: excellent work! [21:24] I think all I need to do is get my desktop manager to utilize Screen 1, but I'm not sure how to do that [21:24] Loshki: heh, I've been comparing these two systems for like an hour :/ [21:25] can someone in here help me install ADB/FAstBOOT (android sdk)?

[22:33] Trick question - you can't [22:33] ok i go to write my problem in pastebin [22:33] Tam5: So I guess you just want to rant then. === dpham is now known as dpham_ [22:33] tam5 then why you ask us. [22:34] Nope, just want to help make sure people are aware of it. You see Goggle does not really advertise what it is they do, and to what extent they do it. If 1 person here doesnt know, and watches the video, then that helps [22:35] Remember the best part starts at the 40:30 mark [22:35] !ot | Tam5 [22:35] Tam5: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [22:35] Ah, the threat of censorship [22:35] no you're just in the wrong channel thats all [22:35] If I dont leave..censored === oleg is now known as Guest33689 [22:36] How stable is the latest version of Ubuntu? I want to know before I make the switch from windows once and for all [22:37] CrazyM4n: 14.04 is released and thus can be considered as "stable". [22:37] Tam5, you don't have to leave but keep your personal rants to offtopic [22:37] CrazyM4n: Maybe try in live mode before formatting your drives ;) [22:38] I am not ranting [22:38] Sounds good! Two more questions: Will it support my hardware? http://prntscr.com/4ssrfo and is there still that cool feature to keep all your files from windows from like ubuntu 11? [22:38] Sorry you felt the need to label it that way [22:38] crazyM4n I'd stick with the long term support releases, (LTS) [22:39] tam5 if you talked about how it related to ubuntu it might not have been offtopic [22:39] Ok, do you want me to talk abou tthat? I can [22:39] CrazyM4n: If there is no additional special hardware, I dont think there will be any problems ;) [22:39] na, I think I'm good. [22:39] Ok [22:39] theguy312: Last time I used ubuntu, the graphics drivers were really meh. Was that all sorted out? [22:41] CrazyM4n: I am using nvidia graphics (with bumblebee) and cant complain [22:41] odin: sorry, dunno. Keep asking, perhaps someone else will. [22:41] CrazyM4n: I expect it (still) depends on your hardware... [22:42] crazym4n, depends on your chipset, some are only ok, some are great and some not so [22:42] It´s ¨NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti (EVGA) 3¨ [22:42] One very, very last question, has anyone had any luck with League of Legends on ubuntu through wine? :) [22:43] CrazyM4n: their channel will help [22:43] (wine) [22:43] CrazyM4n: I got mobile and desktop nvidia graphics with intel cpu's and cannot complain [22:43] crazym4n, see: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=19141 [22:43] TTN: I´ve looked at that [22:44] There were no tests with ubuntu iirc [22:44] Just some instructions at the bottom [22:44] I don't know then sorry. [22:44] Never mind, I missed the ¨more tests¨ button [22:44] It got a platinum rating on 14.04 [22:44] There are now negative reasons for me staying on windows :P [22:45] CrazyM4n: maybe there are entries at LoL forums also [22:45] from 2012 [22:45] anyway there are many great games (out and comming) on linux [22:46] Found one from not too long ago [22:46] Also I never doubted that there are great games, all I need is TF2, KSP, Dota 2, and LoL [22:46] And only one of those isn´t native [22:46] ;D [22:47] And CS:GO, but that´s native too IIRC [22:47] : D that's progress [22:47] CrazyM4n: Take a look at Strife, also great [22:47] and cross platform()() [22:48] I´ve seen videos of it, but never bothered to try it. Maybe I will, it looked like fun [22:48] Only 15 minutes left on the download :D [22:48] ;) [22:48] Is skype still really, really unupdated? [22:50] install it and see [22:50] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/08/install-skype-linux-4-3-ubuntu-software-center [22:51] hello ubuntu! i use firebird 0.7 and flash doesnt work. any idea? === quem_ is now known as quem [22:54] akkku: Where is flash used? browser? Thought firebird is a sql db === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [22:57] Has wine´s performance been improved much? [22:57] better to talk to the wine channel about wine things [22:57] #winehq [22:57] sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree [22:58] Sounds good [22:58] exit [23:00] sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer [23:00] theguy312: firebird is my browser. I dont like to upgrade to firefox [23:03] same thing [23:03] ;D [23:03] *Fail. :D [23:05] ok i write down my problem my english is not the best but I hope that as I wrote legibly http://pastebin.com/XuqTZUyh [23:07] crocko: Your english isn´t that bad! [23:07] hey guys does actually anyone knows when flash is gonna die? coz this chromium pepperflash hack is not really sustainable. i mean WTF chrome/chromium only? does anyone know to get flash working on non-google browsers in amd64 linux? [23:08] akkku: maybe really consider to upgrade browser ( I would really have security concerns ) [23:08] firebird is non google browswer? [23:08] akkku: flash is dead [23:09] I don´t remember the last thing that I saw using flash [23:09] that's a matter of opinion :) [23:09] CrazyM4n: thx but trust me i must think long time to wrote something and i use spell check [23:09] may be my firebird :-P [23:10] Actually, I do remember the last thing that I saw using flash. It was some virtual autopsy thing from a university from around 2005 [23:10] no seriously there are so many news streaming sites expecting flash >15 or so === Nimbus_ is now known as igno818 [23:10] Really? [23:10] and linux is AFAIK stuck at 11.x [23:10] so what do u do? [23:10] apart from pepperflash [23:10] Hasn´t adobe stopped their support for flash on everything but chrome, FF, and IE on windows? [23:10] Yea [23:11] yeah but adobe has this deal with google, thats why chrome works [23:11] but chrome is a freaking data collecting engine [23:11] but it´s a *coooool* data collection engine! [23:12] akkku: i try to avoid site with flash [23:12] akkku: I avoid such services, and dont think I really visit (or need) flash based pages as of now [23:12] you can use chromium of you want [23:12] *if [23:12] chromium = chrome [23:12] isn´t chromium the open-source version? [23:12] or is my perception kinda screwed up [23:12] yes [23:12] Chromium is not Chrome. Google adds things to Chrome. [23:12] pdf [23:13] akku: maybe look at palemoon browser [23:13] point is: it sucks! lots of news site won't stream coz of the old flash [23:13] oh never heard of that [23:13] is there any notable non-open source software for ubuntu? [23:13] already got WPS office, which is awesome by the way [23:14] a notable non-OS software? oracle, db2 [23:14] :-D [23:14] akkku: http://www.palemoon.org/ [23:15] Well [23:15] I burnt ubuntu to a disk [23:15] Now to backup my pictures folder, then wish me luck :P [23:16] 'pictures' [23:16] and i waiting to some one to help me [23:16] I wonder if celestia runs on my laptop === CoreIT84 is now known as Corey84 [23:16] I'd like to create an ubuntu install that resets on reboot or startup for security reasons. Is there a good tutorial out there? [23:17] There´s this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Freeze_(software) [23:17] Maybe look for an ubuntu equivalent [23:18] doesn't have to be ubuntu [23:18] anyone know how to receive an invite from #ubuntu-beginngers? [23:18] beginners [23:19] Haunt_House, a live usb/dvd [23:19] crocko: maybe try fgrlx drivers [23:19] theguy312: are u a dev of palemoon? [23:20] akkku: no [23:21] crocko: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD [23:21] theguy312: fgrlx when i install i can't do start lightdm [23:21] just curious: why do u recommend it? seems to be a one man show from sweden [23:22] i mean no prob with one man shows but something important as this needs at least >5ppl IMHO [23:22] akkku: You said you dont like to upgrade to firefox nor to chrom/ium [23:22] Anyone know what the problem is when you try to boot a live distro from a USB and choosing shell EFI just refreshes the screen and when I choose syslinux EFI bloody windows 8 just boots. [23:23] i don't understand i do not have proprietary drivers for graphic and every thing was ok [23:23] crocko: what happend? or what did you do? [23:24] Bonzo: FIrst u have to find out in what mode windows (if at all) was installed... [23:24] uefi [23:24] theguy312: i do nothing only update [23:24] hi [23:24] akkku: UEFI [23:24] u sure about that u checked in windows? coz i thought so as well and it turned out to be legacy [23:25] how do I continiously show the content of a file which increases in size by added lines at the end? [23:25] crocko: okay, maybe updater installed some driver updates, maybe theres no X-Config? [23:25] akkku: I checked in bios...and also, when I switched to Legacy, windows no longer worked =p [23:25] Do I need to check within win 8? [23:25] !info watch | g0th [23:25] g0th: Package watch does not exist in trusty [23:25] g0th: watch is a command, refreshes every 2 seconds by default i think [23:26] Bonzo: No fuckin idea. Install debian :-P [23:26] !language | akkku [23:26] akkku: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [23:26] lol [23:26] theguy312: update of ubuntu components of course [23:26] crocko: try to remove open-source drivers and install the other ones [23:27] man ubuntu does strange things sometimes [23:27] theguy312: i think there is no x-config [23:27] crocko: but I am more used to nvidia graphics, maybe someone else can tell you more then [23:27] ha the the whole fun is gonna start with systemd [23:27] Bonzo: might want to see if any of the info applies to your system https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [23:27] I used to mess around with linux more but I'm out of practice =/ I told my friend he needed a better pw on his Wifi, he told me it was fine. So I'm trying to boot up wifislax and show him it's not fine,he doesn't think I can do it. He's right! Because I can't boot the damn thing haha [23:28] uefi sux [23:28] yeah [23:28] SchrodingersScat: what would be the command in my case? [23:29] haven't messed with any linux related anything on anything with uefi =( [23:29] crocko: try propitary (remove other graphic drivers before) the wiki has some really good documentation [23:29] g0th: maybe watch tail /path/to/file [23:29] that doesn't seem to work [23:29] it will just execute tail every 2s [23:29] crocko: aticonfig --initial will create a x-config file if you need it [23:29] it might show duplicate text [23:29] or it might skip parts [23:30] hey bonzo just boot without splash and quite [23:30] akkku: I'm sorry I do not get your meaning [23:30] theguy312: x-config should be on /etc/x11/ ? [23:31] when booting keep pressing the shift key to get into the grub thingy [23:31] then remove the quite/splash [23:31] so its more verbose [23:31] quiet [23:31] crocko: yeah, /etc/X11/xorg.conf [23:31] I've tried just using wifislax in a vmware...but I can't get my wireless card to even scan in that...so I'd prefer to boot to the OS [23:32] SchrodingersScat: found it [23:32] SchrodingersScat: tail -F [23:32] theguy312: i have only xorg.conf.failsave [23:33] shift doesn't seem to do anything differently. I have to hold f12 to get to my boot options [23:33] SchrodingersScat: actually I knew this once (I just remembered it now) [23:33] crocko: same here ;) [23:34] crocko: really, try other drivers, I think that will solve your problem [23:35] theguy312: hmm i'm noobish i don't know where to start but i try [23:36] Bonzo: first you have to read that link I sent you to see if anything in there applies to your setup. then when trying to boot and accessing the grub screen you hold down the shift key *after* your computer splash screen [23:36] Bonzo: Choose the disk u want, then quickly press the shift button in order to get into grub [23:36] ubuntu hides a lot of stuff by default in grub so people dont get scared :-) [23:36] crocko: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Grafikkarten/AMD/fglrx / https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD [23:37] once u are in grub (choosing the kernel blablabla), hit edit (old grub 'e'), delete the splash and quite entry) [23:38] and boot and tell us what happens [23:38] Bonzo: if it is a live dvd/usb that you are trying to boot, then when the Keyboard/Access icons appear on your screen, press the enter key to access the Optional boot menu [23:39] hmmm http://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/23gcr0/if_youre_using_1404_dont_install_the_radeon/ i found this is this true ? [23:39] ok, I choice my USB and then it takes me to the GNU grub loader [23:39] squinty: I used linux while u were still peeing in your pants blublbulbubblu!!! :P [23:39] holding shift but nothing yet =p [23:39] do you need the kernel module nf_conntrack fot ip forwarding still? as sysctl.conf does [23:41] i can get to a command line [23:41] akkku: i am 62 and have been using computers' since the '70's and linux since '92... now leave the off topic chatter alone please [23:41] !guidelines | akkku [23:41] akkku: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [23:41] squinty: I'm 85 and i programmed the enigma! [23:42] not so successfully though :-) [23:42] man get some humour [23:42] grow up [23:43] die laughing [23:44] Bonzo: Whats the status? [23:45] eh just trying stuff on the link he sent me [23:45] Hmmm [23:46] In my boot manager it says " Boot mode is set to: UEFI with Legacy OPROM; Secure boot: OFF [23:47] nada mas? [23:47] ? [23:47] nothing else? [23:47] u have the iso link? [23:47] u dd'ed the stick? [23:48] uhhh on my laptop lol hold on I'll find it for ya [23:48] dd bs=4M if=dasdsada.iso of=/dev/sdx? [23:48] http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=wifislax [23:48] which version? [23:48] 4.9? [23:48] 4.9 [23:49] and Ive tried this with every boot loader I could think of [23:49] Even tried Sardu's new beta [23:49] let me try in virtualbox [23:49] I can boot it in VMware [23:49] Just can't actually boot to it [23:50] but vmware isn't working right or something, Idk...I dl'd the compat wireless file [23:50] hmm [23:50] and make unload make load [23:50] cant download this thing [23:50] http://www.wifislax.com/descargas-depositfiles/ [23:50] and my wlan0 and wlan1 shows but they won't do anything [23:51] you telling me to use that version? [23:51] hey what are u actually trying to do with this? [23:52] no i mean i get an error that the dowload limit has been reached or something [23:52] As I said earlier. Friend of mine has a weak wireless pw. He doesn't believe I can crack it. So I'm on a mission to test his wireless with wifislax and prove to him he needs to change it [23:52] He caught someone on his wireless that shouldn't have been [23:52] this is not a channel for support of other distros [23:52] but doesn't believe people can do that lol [23:52] Yeah but I don't really want help with the distro [23:52] if you want to talk about something else, you can take it to another channel or private message [23:53] I want help booting =/ [23:53] if it isn't booting ubuntu then it's off topic [23:53] and I don't see a wifislax room [23:53] well u can achieve the same with ubuntu [23:53] make one [23:53] I see, well thanks for offering me help and pointing me in the right direction? [23:53] install kismet to get the wifis [23:53] sarcasm isn't cool. [23:53] then install aircrack-ng [23:54] same thing [23:54] all distros have these packages [23:54] Niether is whatever it is you're doing daftykins [23:54] enforcing channel policy [23:54] So again, I'll thank for helping? [23:54] guys relax [23:54] Or are you just not going to help [23:55] and continue to crap on me until I leave? [23:55] please don't take it personally, the channel has rules. i'm done now. [23:55] i have no intention of helping with non ubuntu issues. [23:55] It's one thing to enforce, it's quite another to behave that way and just be like LOL YOU SUCK NOOB in a nutshell. [23:55] Bonzo: Start an ubuntu cd (so everyone is happy), then install kismet, aircrack-ng and inject...) [23:55] All you had to do was say, "go here" [23:56] sigh, so butthurt. [23:56] goodbye [23:56] oh dear [23:56] Okay, I'm officially on Ubuntu now. Every one unbunch your panties. [23:57] okay, now that that colossal waste of time and space is over with. I can look back at what the helpful people were trying to tell me =) [23:57] .. or caine even better [23:58] http://www.caine-live.net/ === thehavanacodes is now known as havanamint [23:59] yo bonzo u know the protocol used by your buddy?
