| Finetundra | i am now in recovery mode, it seems that it's having trouble reading the drive | 00:08 |
| bennypr0fane | jayar, for me it's just right-clicking a file that'S located on the server, then say "edit", it opens your default editor, you edit it, save it, and filezilla makes sure the changes are saved directly on the server - pretty neat | 00:08 |
| jayar | bennypr0fane, i'll look through filezilla, right now i'm kinda doin that, but when i "edit file" it just opens in gedit, then when i save it, it uploads automatically, but im still using 2 dif programs | 00:08 |

After an automatic (security) update, and the setting of reboot after finshed installing updates is ture, by default how long does ubuntu give as a notice to logged in users, is there none (hard) or is there some grace time...

| Yrie | http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/?PageSpeed=noscript | 03:57 |
| Yrie | these instructions might help | 03:58 |
| lenarhoyt | Yrie: I saw several tutorials describing this, but they always mention this happens when reinstalling windows or installing it as the second system. I installed windows first, however. | 03:58 |
| Yrie | mozzarella: screenlocker similar to gnome's on what gui? ubuntu's unity? | 03:58 |
| lenarhoyt | Yrie: but I didn’t choose "Install alongside Windows" during installation | 03:59 |
| coofly | hello? | 04:00 |
| lenarhoyt | (because I thought it would install it on the same partition then) | 04:00 |
| monkwitdafunk | hi ubuntu 12.04.1 did not work well with my 2010 zotac but it works well with my 2008 acer aspire | 04:00 |
| daftykins | lenarhoyt: what did you do? nuke Windows entirely? | 04:00 |
| Yrie | lenarhoyt: ah, you'd need it to install alongside windows me think, and they would never install on the same partition, it wouldn't even work | 04:01 |
| lenarhoyt | daftykins: no, windows works fine | 04:01 |
| monkwitdafunk | 14.04.1 i mean. sorry | 04:01 |
| monkwitdafunk | trust | 04:01 |
| monkwitdafunk | trusty | 04:01 |
| daftykins | lenarhoyt: so you just need to reinstall GRUB to the main SSD device e.g. /dev/sda | 04:01 |
| lenarhoyt | daftykins: does it need a separate partition? | 04:02 |
| daftykins | lenarhoyt: no that's not how it works | 04:02 |
| daftykins | lenarhoyt: boot your live install media again and install GRUB to the SSD device, then chroot your install and run update-grub | 04:02 |
| lenarhoyt | daftykins: but I installed linux as the second OS | 04:02 |
| daftykins | !chroot | 04:02 |
| ubottu | A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 04:02 |
| lenarhoyt | thanks, I will try that. windows didn’t overwrite it however | 04:04 |

| Yrie | daftykins: why would he need to chroot and update? | 04:06 |
| daftykins | i dunno, might have that part wrong | 04:06 |
| Yrie | haha, I am pretty sure a reinstall should do the trick | 04:07 |
| daftykins | that's avoiding the problem, not solving it | 04:07 |
| hadees | I’m trying to understand the output of ‘apt-cache policy mountall’ http://pastie.org/private/s84sexn7nhhiapndplzihq | 04:08 |
| hadees | I want to be using the zfs version but for some reason it doesn’t seem to be working | 04:08 |
| Yrie | well, if it doesn't work, tweaking grub will end up working | 04:08 |
| hadees | I can’t figure out why | 04:09 |
| hadees | how do i make the Candidate the Installed | 04:10 |
| hadees | i’m so confused as what is going on with it | 04:11 |
| Noah_AT | Hey guys! I’m trying to connect to my SSH on my ubuntu server using my external IP. I'm port forwarding through two routers, but I still can't hit the SSH server via the external IP | 04:11 |
| Dr_Dan | Yrie, he will most likely come back in 20min and say he cant boot into windows | 04:12 |
| Yrie | Dr_Dan: yup, I am almost 100% sure of it | 04:12 |
| * Dr_Dan sighs | 04:13 | |
| Yrie | at least we can most likely fix that | 04:13 |
| Dr_Dan | yessir | 04:13 |
| Dr_Dan | we can however change the title of that in grub to 'winblows' haha | 04:15 |
| * Dr_Dan strikes an evil grin | 04:15 | |
| daftykins | now now, be sensible | 04:15 |
| Dr_Dan | lol | 04:15 |
| Dr_Dan | j/k | 04:16 |
| osieln | /quit | 04:16 |
| daftykins | Noah_AT: *two* routers? why. | 04:16 |
| Noah_AT | daftykins: We have a lot of computers hard wired, so we need the ports, but its mostly because comcast just upgraded our modem from modem to modem / router | 04:17 |
| Noah_AT | So our old router is like a splitter | 04:17 |
| daftykins | so you're using double NAT? | 04:17 |
| Noah_AT | Yup | 04:17 |
| daftykins | that's really stupid | 04:17 |
| Noah_AT | daftykins: Bahhaha thanks haha | 04:17 |
| daftykins | why not just plug the cable into a switch port instead of the WAN port, then disable DHCP | 04:17 |
| daftykins | = instant switch, no longer a router. | 04:18 |
| Dr_Dan | good idea. probablu want to turn any wi-fi too since its just noise | 04:19 |
| Yrie | hadees: you've tried updating right? | 04:19 |
| hadees | Yrie: yeah, i’ve reinstalled 3 times | 04:19 |
| hadees | and apt-get update | 04:20 |
| hadees | Yrie: i might have figured out something, hold on | 04:20 |
| hadees | i don’t think reinstalling zfs actually reinstalls mountall which is weird because it needs it | 04:21 |
| Yrie | hmm, try apt-get upgrade? | 04:23 |
| daftykins | Noah_AT: was that enough info? do you need more? | 04:24 |

| lionroars | lol | 04:51 |
| somsip | lionroars: that's one to ask the Trisquel people | 04:51 |
| lionroars | but we must have some installation repo or instructions | 04:51 |
| lionroars | or is it confined to Ubuntu only ? | 04:51 |
| somsip | lionroars: the software is available for anyone to use | 04:52 |
| lionroars | ok how can I use it ? | 04:52 |
| somsip | lionroars: download the source and compile it to work in Trisquel. Not an ubuntu issue. | 04:52 |
| lionroars | someone, so no direct installation via repos ? | 04:52 |
| somsip | lionroars: I doubt Trisquel qorks with ubuntu repos, so, no | 04:53 |
| somsip | *works | 04:53 |
| lionroars | someone, no but we are talking about Unity here not Ubuntu | 04:53 |
| somsip | lionroars: so what is your real, ubuntu related question? | 04:54 |
| lionroars | somsip, the question which all repos of ubuntu have free software in it ? and does Ubuntu install any non-free softwares by default without asking for users permission ? | 04:55 |

| lionroars | somsip, so the main and Universe are completely Free Software ? | 05:00 |
| Noah_AT | daftykins: Hey! So I've been in a tornado since I tried to switch the settings | 05:00 |
| Noah_AT | daftykins: The modem / router that comcast gave us has a really bad interface and doesn't seem as capable of handling things as our netgear (which I've now turned into a switch) | 05:01 |
| somsip | lionroars: yes. More info here for 12.04 but I would imagine it's still relevant http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Precise_Repositories | 05:02 |
| Noah_AT | daftykins: In any case, same problem. Now there is only one router, all the internal IP addresses have been updated and ports forwarded. I tried to reach the SSH server, but no luck using the external IP | 05:02 |
| blubberbop | So I have a new ASUS G750J laptop with an nvidia graphics card. lspci lists 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM107M [GeForce GTX 860M] (rev ff) for it. I went to nvidia.com, downloaded the generic driver, installed it under a root shell (did not allow me to do this while X was up), I reboot the system, and nvidia-settings tells me the driver is not loaded, maybe I should run nvidia-xconfig. Did so, reboot, still same result. What could I | 05:03 |
| blubberbop | be doing wrong? anything else I coultr y | 05:03 |
| Noah_AT | ^^ If anyone could help with this issue, I would really appreciate it | 05:03 |
| daftykins | Noah_AT: ok so you're forwarding TCP port 22 presumably in your router's web admin? | 05:03 |
| Noah_AT | yup | 05:06 |
| Noah_AT | and the ubuntu server is on a reserved static IP, so no issues there | 05:06 |
| Noah_AT | daftykins: Connecting via internal IP works instantly which is really frustrating too | 05:07 |
| daftykins | Noah_AT: good stuff, just backspaced what i typed. i would actually use a non-standard port, as you will start seeing bots and script kiddies trying to bruteforce your box in the access logs, but lets start simple | 05:07 |
| Noah_AT | K, I can easily change that later | 05:07 |
| daftykins | Noah_AT: ok, if you check out grc.com you can have it check your ports so you can watch for when 22 becomes available | 05:07 |
| daftykins | can you screenshot the appropriate settings page on your router? | 05:08 |

| nano_ | I do but I dont think that I am getting that either | 05:59 |
| nano_ | wired network either | 05:59 |
| mmizgier | mortal_: that didn't work either | 06:00 |
| mortal_ | mmizgier: Check the volume. Is it pushed past the 100% limit? That tends to distort the audio. | 06:00 |
| xeru | nano_: One way or another it is likely that you will need the linux-firmware-nonfree package, or the firmware-b43-installer package. | 06:00 |
| nano_ | ok. I saw that on some research | 06:01 |
| mmizgier | mortal_: no, even with sound muted there is still some noise | 06:01 |
| nano_ | but I am having difficulty installing | 06:01 |
| mortal_ | mmizgier: What is the sound running to? | 06:01 |
| mmizgier | mortal_: what do you mean by that? | 06:02 |
| mortal_ | mmizgier: What is the output?* | 06:02 |
| mortal_ | mmizgier: Speakers, headphones etc | 06:02 |
| xeru | nano_: Try this command: "lspci -nn | grep net" | 06:02 |
| mmizgier | mortal_: headphones | 06:02 |
| mmizgier | mortal_: as i've said, tried two different ones | 06:03 |
| nano_ | xeru still did not return anything | 06:03 |

| nano_ | do i need to be in an elevated mode | 06:04 |
| xeru | nano_: No | 06:04 |
| trupheenix | lotuspsychje, the file system is encrypted. I am on the system so how do i get testdisk to work? | 06:04 |
| mortal_ | mmizgier: Im not sure. If it isnt hardware related then its out of my scope. Im sorry but ive never encountered that problem | 06:05 |
| mortal_ | mmizgier: id say check pulse-audio or alsa | 06:05 |
| Surendil | nano, hhhmm.... dmesg | grep eth ?? or net? | 06:05 |
| xeru | nano_: You should be able to download the required packages from packages.ubuntu.com and transfer them to the device via USB. I've had to do this in the past, except mine was a MacBook. | 06:07 |

| trupheenix | lotuspsychje, will this photorec be able to recover documents as well? | 06:09 |
| nano_ | xeru I have tried but my difficulty is getting it to work or going through the steps to make it work | 06:10 |
| mortal_ | I absolutely can not get my multi-monitor setup to display full screen properly. I have twi monitors and each are a different size. One is a laptop and the other is just a monitor. I am using them in extended desktop mode | 06:11 |
| mortal_ | xrandr output here | 06:11 |
| nano_ | Surendil? | 06:11 |
| mortal_ | paste.debian.net/125480 | 06:11 |
| Surendil | nano, try to follow what xeru said, not ideal but "software center" might help you install what you need | 06:11 |
| nano_ | is it windows based or script | 06:12 |
| Surendil | gui | 06:13 |
| nano_ | ok. thanks | 06:14 |

| Doc-Saintly | Those commands don't seem to exist in the shell I can start up during the installer | 06:33 |
| Doc-Saintly | and the server ISO won't let me install because it can't connect to the archive | 06:36 |

| somsip | Fou2: what is 'exchange' in this context? | 06:39 |

| Anuska | Kartagis, :* | 06:41 |
| Kartagis | is it possible to mount a samba share with my username rather than uid on the server, and have the files with proper permissions, ie. 644 for files and 755 for directories? the only permissions I can write currently with is 777 | 06:41 |
| squinty | Doc-Saintly: ahh..ok. couldn't remember if that options was availabe for the server edition or not but thought I'd mention it just in case | 06:41 |
| * Kartagis waves to Anuska | 06:41 | |
| Fou2 | i know there is open xchange, sogo, zarafa but still trying to find a more painless install | 06:42 |
| somsip | Fou2: I've got no experience of this, and searches are giving the same names. I can't help | 06:42 |
| Fou2 | ok thanks | 06:42 |
| Fou2 | i just wanted to host my own email server | 06:43 |

| ropeus | hi | 06:45 |
| ropeus | wazz up ? | 06:45 |
| Quatroking | Surendil, sorry about that, had a guy walk up and start whining about a project. I only have one wifi network that I use at home and it auto-connects to that with ease | 06:45 |
| ropeus | is anybody who need help in linux ditributions ? | 06:45 |
| Quatroking | the only difference between the wifi at my university and the wifi at home is that the uni wifi uses enterprise authentication and requires me to login with my student account | 06:46 |
| Surendil | totally offtopic, if someone like psychedelic goa, msg me, wiiiii....psyradio is playing my set (sorry) | 06:46 |
| squinty | Doc-Saintly: <squinty> Doc-Saintly: might want to check in #ubuntu-server which is on this (freenode) irc network. | 06:46 |
| Quatroking | if it helps anything, the uni wifi is part of the eduroam network | 06:46 |
| Anuska | Kartagis, yes | 06:46 |
| ropeus | I just try la lastest distrib under linux lite kernel ubuntu 12.04 LTS is more leak like before | 06:46 |
| Kartagis | Anuska: yes what? | 06:47 |
| ropeus | verify the firewall under your wifi network and u see if u can break it | 06:47 |
| Anuska | Kartagis, http://pastebin.com/SBebcqqM | 06:47 |
| Kartagis | Anuska: I'm not creating the share, I'm mounting it | 06:48 |
| squinty | Fou2: someone mention the following today http://www.zentyal.org/ afaik, it is modular (check in synaptic package manager if you have it installed. ) | 06:48 |
| Anuska | aa | 06:48 |
| Fou2 | ooow | 06:48 |
| Anuska | use fstab | 06:48 |
| ropeus | Anuska wich distribution U use ? | 06:49 |
| Anuska | ubuntu and debian :) | 06:49 |
| Anuska | Kartagis, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 06:50 |
| Kartagis | Anuska: I use fstab, but I can't find the proper switches | 06:50 |
| Quatroking | so yeah, my laptop won't auto-connect to the uni wifi with wpa2 enterprise auth, but it auto-connects to my home wifi with wpa2 regular auth just fine | 06:50 |
| Quatroking | what do | 06:50 |
| ropeus | U can break wpa2 using Backtrack 5 R3 | 06:51 |
| Anuska | example: //192.168.1.5/my/folder /home/mounts/localmount cifs user=admin,password=123,rw,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 | 06:51 |
| Quatroking | ropeus, that's great, but I don't need to break wifi auth, I need to auto-connect | 06:52 |
| Quatroking | a classmate's ubuntu laptop, also running 14.04, auto-connects just fine while mine doesn't | 06:52 |
| Doc-Saintly | any ideas squinty ? | 06:52 |
| Anuska | add: dmask=0777 | 06:52 |
| Fou2 | i have a few things installed already i hope it does not mess with it but ok lets give it a shot | 06:52 |
| Quatroking | it requires me to perform 2 clicks every login and it's pretty annoying | 06:52 |
| Kartagis | Anuska: may I pm? | 06:53 |
| Anuska | yes | 06:53 |
| squinty | Doc-Saintly: other than asking in #ubuntu-server, not right now | 06:54 |
| levo | hi, how can i set up a voice server so that my friend and I could talk to each other, conditions: no internet access (or any routers) it's just my laptop with ubuntu 14.04 and his android phone | 06:59 |
| Rory | levo: You would both need to be connected to the same network | 06:59 |
| levo | Rory: my laptop's wireless network | 06:59 |
| Rory | levo: You wouldn't need internet access, but you would need a router | 06:59 |
| Doc-Saintly | ah ok, didn't know they had their own channel :) | 07:00 |
| Doc-Saintly | thanks | 07:00 |
| levo | Rory: it's possible to create a local network using my laptop network card (wireless) | 07:00 |
| Rory | levo: If you can get the Android device connected to some sort of hotspot created by the laptop, something like Dragon remote mic on Android might work? | 07:00 |
| trupheenix | any one know how to use testdisk with an encrypted home directory? | 07:01 |
| Rory | trupheenix: You can't recover encrypted data like that... the whole point is to prevent that sort of thing :) | 07:01 |
| trupheenix | Rory, I'm logged in. I lost files in my home directory. How do I get them back? | 07:02 |
| ikonia | trupheenix: do you REALLY need encyption ? | 07:02 |
| levo | Rory: phone connecting to laptop's hotspot network is possible, so you say dragon remote mic on android, and what should be installed on ubuntu? | 07:02 |
| trupheenix | ikonia, no but the installer prompted me when I installed the last time and the home directory got encrypted. I totally forgot about this and kept using the system for almost 9 months now. | 07:03 |
| ikonia | trupheenix: yeah, I guess it's too late now, the damage is done | 07:04 |

| snpresent | hello everyone! | 09:32 |
| kip | hi | 09:33 |
| kumarat9pm | I am looking for a good screen recorder for teaching my students online. | 09:38 |
| kumarat9pm | I have two options one is bestscreenrecorder and recordmydesktop(others are welcome). | 09:39 |
| kumarat9pm | Can I know which is best for quality, not that much heavy on machine etc? | 09:39 |
| DJones | !screencast | kumarat9pm (I think this info has been recently updated), maybe it'll help, | 09:40 |
| ubottu | kumarat9pm (I think this info has been recently updated), maybe it'll help,: Some programs to capture your screen are Kazam, Vokoscreen & Simple Screen Recorder. Also ffmpeg/libav with x11grab option on the command line. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. | 09:40 |
| kumarat9pm | Thanks Djones | 09:40 |
| DJones | kumarat9pm: I've not used them so I can't say which is better, but hopefully gives you a starting point | 09:41 |
| kumarat9pm | ya.. DJones | 09:41 |
| kumarat9pm | I used recordmydesktop but some one suggested me best screen recoder as well | 09:42 |
| joey_ | I just tried kazam as it was listed above worked reeealy well. no lag and easy to use | 09:43 |
| shai | Hi :) I downloaded the Network installer (mini.iso) and want to install it on a Virtualbox machine .. after the base system installation, I already ended up with a 1.8GB virtual hard disk ... how can I lower that size? prehaps choose the packages that are being installed...? any thoughts? | 09:45 |
| shai | In comparison to CentOS, this is a huge increase whereas the latter is only approx. 400mb at base installation | 09:46 |
| shai | or maybe 700mb .. don't recall but still ... | 09:46 |
| Anuska | Question: is posible to install photoshop on ubuntu x64 ? | 09:47 |
| Johncarper | Hello, If i set a static ip on my ubuntu server for example 192.168.0.107 on my ubuntu server , i won't have any troubles with my ip's changing at all? Or do i have to request a static ip from my ISP also so my public ip adress doesn't change either? | 09:47 |

| joey_ | 192. is internal ip and not really affected by you isp | 09:47 |
| lionroars | Anuska, Why do you want to use Photoshop ? | 09:48 |
| lionroars | on GNU/Linux ? | 09:48 |
| marlo_ | is there a package for installing my own pastebin on my own server? | 09:48 |
| joey_ | although you could request and pay for a static ip which is the one that can change when u reboot your server | 09:48 |
| joey_ | router sorry not server | 09:48 |
| Ben64 | joejc: actually, 192.168.* is internal | 09:49 |

| N3T-D3v1l | can anybody help me to get an registration code for linux mint community | 10:00 |
| N3T-D3v1l | ? | 10:00 |
| Ben64 | !mint | N3T-D3v1l | 10:00 |
| ubottu | N3T-D3v1l: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 10:00 |
| tobyink | OK, so I recently got a new laptop, but the Pause and Delete keys are in the "wrong" place (i.e. swapped around from where they were on my old laptop). | 10:01 |
| N3T-D3v1l | thanks | 10:01 |
| tobyink | Easy solution: remap them with xmodmap, and lever the physical keys off the machine, and swap them around. Fixed. | 10:01 |
| Ben64 | laptops aren't easy to pop keys on and off | 10:02 |
| tobyink | One problem though, holding down the delete key doesn't delete lots of text. If I want to delete 10 characters, I need to press it 10 times rather than pressing and holding down. | 10:02 |
| tobyink | Ben64: this one is. Trust me. I've already done that part. | 10:02 |
| tobyink | But does anybody have any idea about how I can get the holddowniness working? | 10:03 |
| kwek | hi.. does anyone know why this doesnt give me the expected fqdn 'virtualix.office'? http://pastebin.com/019z0Krz - ubuntu 12.04 | 10:05 |
| tobyink | It might just be a hardware limitation I suppose. The keyboard still thinks that button is Pause, and why the hell would anybody want to hold down Pause? | 10:06 |
| Surendil | tobyink: settings - keyboard? | 10:08 |

| Strikesbac | i think that we might have an issue though... | 10:38 |
| Strikesbac | i tried to use apt-get autoremove to get rid of them | 10:38 |
| Strikesbac | but it appears that there is one missing a dependancy | 10:38 |
| Strikesbac | using apt-get install -f didnt work, think that there is insufficent space on the/boot to be able to do this | 10:39 |
| mesaboogie1 | I'll be back soon, I got some family stuff to do, .. dead keen to get this install finalized though | 10:39 |
| eeee | try apt-get purge linux-image-2.6.32-33-server | 10:39 |

| eeee | Strikesbac: ok, you can manually remove the kernel config file to make some space | 10:45 |
| pcchou | My graphics card is a NVIDIA GT730 from EVGA. | 10:46 |

| mesaboogie1 | can I use legacy bios (csm) and no secure/fast boot and then install trusty in an "old" way then? (I'd love that) | 10:50 |

| Anuska | I want to personalize/customize my desktop / theme what i need to do? | 10:53 |
| AR45 | mesaboogie1, Like this `apt-get --purge remove project-neon5-session project-neon5-utils project-neon5-konsole -f` | 10:53 |
| eeee | Strikesbac: ok, try apt-get purge linux-image-2.6.32-33-server | 10:54 |
| Surendil | Anuska: compiz i think | 10:54 |
| AR45 | eeee, okay | 10:55 |
| eeee | AR45: huh? | 10:55 |
| mesaboogie1 | --ignore-deps | 10:55 |
| eeee | AR45: that was for Strikesbac , don't run anything. | 10:55 |
| mesaboogie1 | force would do about the same, in a dirty bway lol | 10:56 |
| AR45 | mesaboogie1, this command doesn't execute I'm afraid. | 10:56 |
| Strikesbac | so afraid cant purge as still an unmet depenacy | 10:57 |
| AR45 | mesaboogie1, `sudo apt-get --purge remove project-neon5-session project-neon5-utils project-neon5-konsole --ignore-deps` | 10:57 |
| jandro | Hi folks, I have just noticed that Ubuntu 14.04 has created a third partition which parted denominates is with a ‘msftdata’ flag.

| k1l_ | Zephyr1139: typically that blank screen after login is a sign for a not working video driver. | 13:41 |

| not_roasted | Hello friends. Question - is there a way to scale up the icons in Ubuntu? I'm talking the icons you see within certain applications, such as Open, New, Save, etc. I have a special case here at work (school district) where a student could benefit from much larger text/icons. The display scaling (system settings >> displays >> scaling) doesn't seem to cut the butter for this in particular. | 14:22 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: Ah, and I'm guessing it shouldn't be using that much :) | 14:22 |
| jarek_pjar | dunno | 14:22 |
| jarek_pjar | 12G/var | 14:22 |
| jarek_pjar | 6,7G/usr | 14:22 |
| jarek_pjar | so probably only those 2 locations can contain those ram-to-disk dumps | 14:23 |
| farva | can some one help me understand visualvm? I need to install it to help debug a .jar and I am not certain where or how to do this. Do I install it onto my home pc? or do I install it on my remote server where the jar file is running? I am very inexperienced and have no idea what I am doing >.< | 14:23 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: Well I doubt it's hibernation causing this. I'm just guessing something "ate" the disk at around the same time | 14:24 |
| jarek_pjar | and why it's possible that those '500kb low disk space' warning popups nad gparted showing 1gb unused space at the same time? | 14:24 |
| * AR45 yawns | 14:25 | |
| jarek_pjar | maybe there is some indicator broken? | 14:25 |
| geirha | gparted might be including the reserved space | 14:25 |
| geirha | not sure though | 14:25 |
| ASHER1 | someone | 14:25 |
| ASHER1 | can please help to me? | 14:25 |
| jarek_pjar | so I guess there is no one location for those ram-to-disk files? | 14:26 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: it gets stored to swap, unless there's some new linux feature I haven't heard about yet | 14:27 |
| jarek_pjar | geirha, yeah, this is what I read in manual... so probably it's not the hibernate issue | 14:28 |
| eeee | jarek_pjar: if it hibernates it gets stored to swap | 14:28 |
| geirha | 9G sounds like an aweful lot of space for a mysql database to take. What are you using it for? | 14:28 |
| yeats | ASHER1: what's the issue? | 14:28 |
| eeee | jarek_pjar: if it was in suspend, i don't think it writes anything to disk. | 14:29 |
| jarek_pjar | so maybe - there is some clean way to find recently stored files | 14:29 |
| jarek_pjar | ? | 14:29 |
| eeee | jarek_pjar: as i said earlier, man find, look into the ctime stuff | 14:29 |
| jarek_pjar | ok | 14:29 |
| jarek_pjar | the thing is it cuts my output due to low space | 14:29 |
| jarek_pjar | :/ | 14:29 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: something like sudo find / -xdev -type f -mtime 0 -ls | 14:30 |
| jarek_pjar | so I can see only last screen of output | 14:30 |
| geirha | will show all files modified today | 14:30 |
| jarek_pjar | ok - will try | 14:30 |
| geirha | if you change -mtime 0 to -mmin -60 you get within the last 60 minutes instead | 14:31 |
| uboth | Hi. Could anyone help me to fix my black screen problem, plz? Details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2246704&p=13134476#post13134476 | 14:32 |

| frew | I suspect I can use .asoundrc but I don't know how to get a list of the cards alsa knows about | 14:34 |
| bajin-lee | hi ,how to solve the problem like this bellow? Compiling some other packages against libsndfile may require | 14:34 |
| bajin-lee | the addition of '/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig' to the | 14:34 |
| bajin-lee | PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. | 14:34 |
| frew | I was thinking I could do something like pcm.!default = $card_to_disable | 14:34 |
| BluesKaj | frew, aplay -l | 14:36 |
| fajung | how can I do to change the default por on vino-server on my ubuntu14 ? | 14:36 |
| BluesKaj | lists the soundcards | 14:36 |
| jarek_pjar | find / -xdev -type f -mtime 0 -l - could this be sorted by size? (man find does not have word 'sort') | 14:36 |
| frew | BluesKaj: ok, thanks, I see two HDMI and two PCH | 14:37 |

| razieliyo | is there any way to have libgl-mesa1-dev of 32 and 64 bits installed? | 14:37 |
| BluesKaj | frew, could you pastebin it pls | 14:37 |
| frew | BluesKaj: http://paste.scsys.co.uk/429137 | 14:37 |
| frew | I guess I miscounted, 5 things. | 14:38 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: you can filter by size, to omit files smaller than 100M for instance | 14:38 |
| frew | BluesKaj: maybe I can use http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Asoundrc#The_default_plugin and card 1? | 14:39 |
| geirha | find / -xdev -type f -mtime 0 -size +100M -ls | 14:39 |
| frew | BluesKaj: yeah that worked, at least for alsamixer | 14:39 |
| jarek_pjar | geirha, ok will try. btw its weird that it doesn't show files for -mmin 120 or -cmin 120 (my 1gb dissappeared 1.5hr ago) | 14:40 |
| === shadowRAM is now known as lnikon | ||
| geirha | jarek_pjar: -mmin 120 means files that were modified at a one minute interval 120 minutes ago | 14:41 |
| jarek_pjar | geirha, I think I've found them: 521845256 oct 10 15:52 /var/log/kern.log | 14:41 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: you want -mmin -120 | 14:41 |
| jarek_pjar | 521376575 oct 10 15:28 /var/log/syslog.1 | 14:41 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: ouch, that's a big log file, yes | 14:41 |
| jarek_pjar | so they are 1gb | 14:41 |
| jarek_pjar | should I delete them? | 14:42 |
| IceBot3000 | Just truncate the file | 14:42 |

| jarek_pjar | geirha, could be :) will check | 14:43 |
| sixequalszero | Is it ill-advised to store my IRC pass in .irssi/startup? | 14:43 |
| IceBot3000 | farva: Have you read all the documentation? | 14:44 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: but removing the file will not help as long as syslog has the file open, so truncate it like IceBot3000 suggested if you want to free the space | 14:44 |

| anonymus-mouse | and if i did bad for me because i didnt backup. | 15:00 |
| bodie_ | imbezol, no, I figured apt-get would take care of updating the version. `which google-chrome` is a symlink to /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome, which reports the correct version as well | 15:00 |
| bodie_ | er, "updating the version" = overwriting or replacing the binary | 15:00 |
| imbezol | bodie_: try "dpkg -l | grep -i chrom" | 15:01 |
| imbezol | bodie_: remove the old one if it's there | 15:01 |
| bodie_ | okay, let me give that a shot | 15:01 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: Maybe the logrotation got one of the files first? | 15:01 |
| B0bsF1sh | To boot to console/text only, should I put this in /etc/default/grub (GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text") or should I remove the lightdm line from /etc/X11/default-display-manager ? | 15:02 |
| bodie_ | imbezol, old one's not there. just beta and unstable, neither of which are v. 34.x. it reports v.38 for google-chrome itself | 15:02 |
| imbezol | bodie_: how are you starting it? command line or clicking an icon? | 15:02 |
| jarek_pjar | geirha, but in /var/log the biggest file now weights 1.4M | 15:02 |
| bodie_ | imbezol, both give the same result | 15:02 |
| geirha | jarek_pjar: hm, what did you do to truncate them exactly? | 15:03 |
| bodie_ | imbezol, ah, this might be fruitful... /usr/bin/google-chrome -> /etc/alternatives/google-chrome | 15:03 |
| bodie_ | nope, alternatives/google-chrome also gives v. 38 from the command line | 15:04 |

| imbezol | jarek_pjar: the rules are in /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog | 15:21 |
| drmagoo | phr3d13: then you just need to point Apache to that drive | 15:22 |

| geirha | jarek_pjar: You can run logrotate more often by moving it from /etc/cron.daily/ to /etc/cron.hourly/ might help a little in the future | 15:22 |

| B0bsF1sh | Ok I changed /etc/default/grub to use both GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text" and rebooted. It showed me the startup details, but then it still launched Unity. So then I removed the lightdm line from /etc/X11/default-display-manager and rebooted - now it's stuck at the 4 dots startup and won't go any further. Control+Alt+F1 doesn't do anything, Esc doesn't do anything. But services are still running, I can SSH in, etc. | 15:28 |

| streulma | hello, when someone types his/her sudo password in Terminal, then there are strange characters in the terminal. But he/her types it in normal. What can it be? | 15:37 |
| drmagoo | phr3d13: if it was a private webserver, the easy fix would be to add the apache/www-data user to the phr3d13-group and that should resolv the issue. The problem there is that any visitor to your website could possibly gain access to all your files | 15:37 |

| === ehya1 is now known as Guest27131 | ||
| phr3d13 | drmagoo, like having the apache user chown the folder? | 15:42 |
| streulma | what do you mean compdoc? | 15:43 |
| drmagoo | phr3d13: since it is a fat32-filesystem, changing permissions might break something on the windows side. | 15:43 |
| phr3d13 | drmagoo, it's not the system disk or the boot disk for either OS | 15:44 |
| drmagoo | phr3d13: I'vent tried a setup like this, and since its a public system I would be very careful. Why dont you get a cheap vps and run the system on ? | 15:44 |

| Guest33431 | tgm4883, they've been working on that for a long time. not blaming. | 16:01 |
| tgm4883 | adsc: honestly, I'm not even sure how to approach that question | 16:01 |
| adsc | what about the other way around? | 16:01 |
| adsc | install an ubuntu as app on the iphone? | 16:01 |
| tgm4883 | Guest33431: out of curiosity, what model was the Dell? | 16:02 |
| tgm4883 | adsc: I'm going to guess that english is not your first language, and that I'm not understanding what you are trying to say. Both IOS (Iphone) and Ubuntu are operating systems, not programs. | 16:02 |
| OerHeks | adsc, they are not compatible | 16:03 |
| adsc | an operating system is not a program? | 16:03 |
| tgm4883 | adsc: from a high level overview, no | 16:03 |

| tgm4883 | adsc: what are you trying to accomplish | 16:03 |
| OerHeks | adsc, nope, no linux on iphones | 16:04 |
| tgm4883 | adsc: are you just trying to transfer files/music/pictures from ubuntu to your iphone? | 16:04 |
| adsc | no, i can already do that | 16:04 |
| tgm4883 | adsc: then what are you trying to accomplish? | 16:04 |

| tgm4883 | adsc: you can't do that | 16:05 |
| adsc | yeah, I see, thanks | 16:05 |

| Flannel | unstable: Looks like that hasn't made it into Trusty yet, you may want to file a bug report just to nudge them, as it seems like the last update was in March. | 18:39 |
| Flannel | unstable: It'll be fixed in 14.04, but giving a nudge is always a good thing. | 18:40 |
| yuriks | Jordan_U: hm, it seems that message is happening in the initramfs, since I changed the fstab and forgot to update it and didn't get the error | 18:40 |

| metallic | Hello all, I am in Kubuntu 14, I have an USB which is set to "read only" mode. I do not know how turn it to "read and write" mode. The chmod does not seem to work, also the KDE partition manager does not recognize the partition table of the USB. Any Ideas? | 18:44 |
| ijwow | hello everyone, I just had a narrow escape from a week's work go in ashes..so I am looking for an alternative to ftp or filezilla now to edit remote files..could you recommend me any? | 18:44 |

| ijwow | I am using ubuntu, hence thought I could ask you here | 18:44 |

| Anuska | :P | 18:46 |

| eeee | metallic: sudo parted -l , shows nothing? | 18:50 |
| ijwow | genii, I dont know the OS, since the edited files are going to the hosting company's server | 18:50 |
| Jordan_U | metallic: How did you create the partitions and filesystems on this USB drive? | 18:50 |
| Anuska | What recommanded in ubuntu: gnome or xfce? | 18:50 |
| genii | ijwow: Ah. Becuse if it was some similar *nix system, I would recommend just ssh in and edit the files there and not your local box | 18:50 |
| metallic | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8534772/ | 18:51 |
| metallic | eeee, | 18:51 |
| Surendil | kmkfs.ext4 partition or use gparted | 18:51 |
| Surendil | Anuska: xfce | 18:51 |
| metallic | Jordan_U, I typed "cp debian.iso /path/to/usb" | 18:51 |
| Anuska | Surendil, how i install xface ? | 18:51 |
| Surendil | Anuska: better download xubuntu | 18:52 |
| Anuska | :( | 18:52 |
| ehya1 | is there any way to install gnome 3.10, 3.12 or 3.14 on ubuntu 12.04? | 18:53 |
| Jordan_U | metallic: OK, that is where the problem arised then. The partition table on debian.iso is for a drive with 512 byte sectors, where your drive has 2048 byte sectors. I would recommend using GParted to partition this drive with a new partition table (which will wipe all existing data). | 18:53 |
| metallic | gparted? ok, I am giving it a try :D:D | 18:54 |
| Surendil | Anuska: i've tried installing xfce, not worth installing going crazy if there's already a distro | 18:54 |
| === bob is now known as Guest17941 | ||

| ijwow | genii, I almost lost my work for half of my file was opened for edit (due to bad connection) and I didnt notice it, and saved this file while editing. luckily, I had the original file in /tmp, and was given this hint by my saviour :) | 18:58 |
| ijwow | I am curious if there is another way to edit files where this wont happen | 18:58 |
| genii | ijwow: What program are you editing them with? | 19:00 |
| metallic | Jordan_U, Gparted fixed my USB, I created a new msdos partition table. KDE partition manager and Gparted are not supposed to be based on the same libraries, that is, why did KDE partition manager not work? | 19:00 |

| requiredfield | I'm SSH'd into a VPS my friend gave me. "uname -a" is reporting an old kernel so I installed the linux-image-generic package and rebooted, but uname still reports the old kernel. Tried to see if I could choose the new one in /boot/grub/grub.conf but that file isn't there. Tried running update-grub to generate one and got /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `/var/lib/vz/private/102'. | 19:48 |
| requiredfield | any ideas? | 19:48 |
| Jordan_U | requiredfield: Many times your "virtual server" is just a container, meaning that you have no control over what kernel is being used. | 19:50 |
| yuriks | Jordan_U: ".../vz/..." means it definitely a container | 19:51 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: so you have to live with the kernel you have | 19:52 |
| guest1877 | hello.. i am unable to use synaptic package manager for some reason. i first noticed this problem today. when i try to open it, i get the password prompt, and then nothing happens.. i tried to launch it from the terminal. when i just use the command 'synaptic', without running it as root, it is able to open, but if i try to run it as root, or with sudo, i get the following output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8535148/ | 19:52 |
| Jordan_U | requiredfield: Be aware that upgrading your userland without being able to upgrade your kernel could lead to issues, so you're probably stuck with the release of Ubuntu they give you as well. | 19:52 |
| guest1877 | can someone help me to diagnose this? i am using the vanilla ubuntu 14.04 | 19:53 |
| yuriks | indeed, it's a pain in the ass, especially for distros with newer systemd, which requires a 3.something kernel | 19:53 |
| guest1877 | sorry, i mean just regular ubuntu 14.04 with regular unity | 19:53 |
| Jordan_U | !gksudo | guest1877 | 19:53 |
| ubottu | guest1877: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 19:53 |
| Jordan_U | !hostname | guest1877 | 19:53 |
| ubottu | guest1877: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one. WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 19:53 |
| requiredfield | thanks yuriks and Jordan_U. i actually dist-upgraded to 14.04 from 12.04 without any trouble, fortunately. the kernel is 2.6.32-6-pve. know off the top of your head if that's so old it will give me a bad time? hoping to use this server to host redis instances and a python web application i'm building. | 19:54 |
| requiredfield | which could get a high volume of traffic | 19:54 |
| Jordan_U | requiredfield: That's asking for trouble. | 19:55 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: it's a custom OpenVZ patched kernel | 19:55 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: I think they backport a lot of stuff to it | 19:55 |
| bazhang | !info linux-image-generic | 19:55 |
| ubottu | linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 3.13.0.37.44 (trusty), package size 2 kB, installed size 28 kB | 19:55 |
| requiredfield | yuriks: what's asking for trouble? | 19:56 |
| yuriks | (which I don't understand, isn't it easier to forward-port your OpenVZ patches instead of backporting the rest of the kernel?) | 19:56 |
| guest1877 | ok... i still got the same output though | 19:56 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: dist-upgrading, I think | 19:56 |
| guest1877 | sudo was not the problem | 19:56 |
| CrazyM4n | How do I install the newest sdl libraries? I need version 2.0.3 but I have 2.0.2 from apt-get | 19:56 |
| ikonia | I doubt you "need" 2.0.3 | 19:56 |
| requiredfield | yuriks: oh no, and now i've done it already. should/can i dist-downgrade? | 19:56 |
| ikonia | what's the issue with 2.0.2 | 19:56 |
| CrazyM4n | ikonia: Helm requires it | 19:56 |
| guest1877 | my problem is that synaptic will not open.. can someone help me? | 19:56 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: check on the internet if ubuntu 14.04 is fine with that kernel version (specifically the openvz one) | 19:56 |
| Jordan_U | guest1877: Did you read both messages from ubottu? Have you recently changed your hostname? | 19:57 |
| CrazyM4n | Never mind, I just found a ppa for it | 19:57 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: if it is then you shouldn't have to worry, if it isn't then random things that depend on kernel features might fail to run | 19:57 |
| guest1877 | Jordan_U, i recently changed my computer name | 19:57 |
| Jordan_U | guest1877: That's your hostame. How did you change it? | 19:57 |
| guest1877 | Jordan_U, i did sudo nano /etc/hostname | 19:58 |
| Noah_AT | Hey guys! Originally my issue was trying to connect to my ubuntu sever via SSH using my external IP. Initally I had two routers with double NAT configured. Last night I turned off the DHCP server of the second router and now NAT is handled by the first and the second is just a switch. Problem now is that the second router (switch) drops all connections every 20min and I have to power cycle to reconnect | 19:58 |
| guest1877 | and changed the name that way | 19:58 |
| requiredfield | yuriks: first couple google hits for "ubuntu 14.04 2.6.32-6-pve" are http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Roadmap and https://github.com/proxmox/pve-kernel-2.6.32/blob/master/changelog.Debian but neither seem to say whether ubuntu 14.04 supports that kernel | 19:58 |
| guest1877 | i will chech the hosts file now | 19:58 |
| guest1877 | thanks | 19:58 |
| requiredfield | thanks so much for this info by the way, super helpful | 19:58 |
| requiredfield | i guess i should uninstall linux-image-generic | 19:59 |
| Noah_AT | So, why is my router which is acting as a network switch going down so often? How do I stop it from happending | 19:59 |
| OerHeks | !info hostnamectl | 20:00 |
| ubottu | Package hostnamectl does not exist in trusty | 20:00 |
| requiredfield | yuriks: anywhere else i can check if 14.04 supports this kernel? | 20:01 |
| ikonia | use the kernel provided by ubuntu | 20:01 |
| Jordan_U | OerHeks: hostnamectl is part of the systemd-services package (in Ubuntu 14.04). And yes, we should consider changing that factoid to mention it as it's a great tool :) | 20:01 |
| Jordan_U | ikonia: They can't, they're using a VPS and only have a container. | 20:02 |
| guest1877 | Jordan_U, how do i include both the old and the new hostname? | 20:02 |
| guest1877 | in the hosts file | 20:02 |
| ikonia | so their VPS provider should be supporting them | 20:02 |
| ikonia | it's up to the VPS provider to make sure the user space will work | 20:02 |
| Finetundra | hello everyone | 20:02 |
| ikonia | the guest is outside the user control | 20:02 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: don't know, sorry. I know some of this stuff because I researche if I could run Arch Linux on OpenVZ, but don't know about any Ubuntu specifics | 20:03 |
| requiredfield | yuriks: gotcha, thanks | 20:03 |
| ijwow | Jordan_U, hello back! :) you'd just recommended me to use git last time we were talking an hour or so ago.. | 20:04 |
| ijwow | so I can start by downloading git from repos? | 20:04 |
| ijwow | installing, I mean | 20:05 |
| requiredfield | yuriks: last question then, is there a mailing list you can recommend i ask on? | 20:05 |
| Sunstream | Forget it I am going to try Unity since I have a stand alone dvd player. the reason I am using lubuntu was for playing DVDs | 20:05 |
| yuriks | requiredfield: not sure either. You might want to try asking your provider's support | 20:05 |
| Noah_AT | Hi guys, I need help figuring out why is my router which is acting as a network switch is going down every 30min or so and how to I stop it from happending. Thanks! | 20:06 |
| Jordan_U | ijwow: Yes. | 20:06 |
| guntbert | Noah_AT: what OS is your router running? | 20:06 |
| Finetundra | after i go past grub, i just get a screen with a blinking cursor. what do i do? | 20:07 |
| requiredfield | yuriks: unfortunately it's a friend who's busy and already doing me a favor giving me this free container so i want to limit how much i bug him. think i should just dist-downgrade, if that's possible? | 20:07 |
| === JanC_ is now known as JanC | ||
| Finetundra | oh, it's better now | 20:08 |
| ijwow | Jordan_U, it seems command-line only? | 20:08 |
| Noah_AT | guntbert: So I just got the new comcast “upgrade” router and then turned off the DHCP server on my netgear3800. (The comcast router now connects to a LAN port of the netgear3800) The OS on which router? The comcast or the netgear working as a switch? | 20:08 |
| Jordan_U | guest1877: Edit /etc/hosts with "sudo nano /etc/hosts" and add a new line containing "127.0.0.1 your_new_hostname_here". That is assuming that you can manage to successfully run "sudo nano /etc/hosts", which you probably can't. | 20:09 |
| guntbert | Noah_AT: neither the comcast nor the netgear are running Ubuntu, are they? | 20:09 |
| yuriks | ijwow: git is a version control system, not an FTP client. You probably want to read up on it | 20:09 |
| Jordan_U | ijwow: There are a few GUI front ends for git. And as yuriks said, it's not an ftp client, it's a system for keeping track of changes you make to files (generally human readable and human written text files). | 20:10 |
| ijwow | yuriks..I think the same :) | 20:10 |
| Finetundra | can someone give me the command to install xfce? | 20:11 |
| Jordan_U | requiredfield: Downgrading is not possible, you'll have to re-install / ask for a new container. | 20:11 |
| ijwow | Jordan_U, it eliminates the risk to lose files that way, to have the files always at hand and be able to retrace what was done, I guess | 20:11 |
| Noah_AT | guntbert: Negative. This whole problem started when I was trying to forward ports to SSH into my ubuntu server externally. My network was working great, but I was behind double NAT and someone suggested I disable DHCP and use the second router as a switch. Now it fails every 30min | 20:11 |
| ijwow | or, rather, to lose the data in the files | 20:11 |
| yeats | Finetundra: 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop' | 20:11 |
| Jordan_U | ijwow: Exactly. | 20:12 |
| Finetundra | yeats, i just want the desktop, none of the extras that'll give me | 20:12 |
| ijwow | Jordan_U, I will read upon it, thank you very much for recommending! | 20:12 |
| guntbert | Noah_AT: sorry, I cannot make any sense out of your statement | 20:12 |
| Jordan_U | ijwow: You're welcome :) | 20:12 |
| bazhang | Noah_AT, tried ##networking yet? | 20:13 |
| yeats | Finetundra: then do 'apt-cache search xfce' (or use the software center) and pick the packages that look right to you | 20:13 |
| Bashing-om | Finetundra: ^^ or just 'xfce4' -> sudo apt-get install xorg , sudo apt-get install xfce4 <- . | 20:13 |
| bazhang | Finetundra, apt-cache search xfce | 20:13 |
| bazhang | !info xfce4 | 20:14 |
| ubottu | xfce4 (source: xfce4): Meta-package for the Xfce Lightweight Desktop Environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.10.1 (trusty), package size 4 kB, installed size 31 kB | 20:14 |
| Noah_AT | bazhang: Negative. I’ll do that now. Initially this was a problem SSHing into my ubuntu server via my external IP, so thats why i’ve been on #ubuntu | 20:14 |
| bazhang | Noah_AT, understood, but it sounds like an issue more suited to that channel | 20:14 |
| ijwow | I was recommended by the great guy (whom I owe the rescue of today) to connect from nautilus directly to the server..could this be a good replacement to filezilla (sorry if the question is not fully sensible, I never edited remote files in the mentioned way before) | 20:15 |
| ijwow | ? | 20:15 |
| yeats | ijwow: not a replacement, but yeah, it can do some of the same tasks | 20:15 |
| yeats | ijwow: filezilla is one of those magical swiss army knife programs that just does what you need | 20:16 |
| ijwow | yeats, I am just wary of ftp/filezilla after today's incident (and upon that heard some 'disrecommendation' of them)..that's why considering finding an alternative | 20:17 |
| Finetundra | Bashing-om, thanks that's what i was looking for | 20:17 |
| yeats | ijwow: not familiar with any incidient | 20:17 |
| Bashing-om | Finetundra: :) ,,, what have you done ? .. wipe the SATA disk and start all over ? | 20:18 |
| ijwow | yeats, I was at a bad public connection and half of the remote file was opened for editing when I called it via filezilla..I didnt notice it and saved upon the half-text. the full initial remote file would be almost gone if I didnt find it in the tmp | 20:18 |
| ijwow | the connection was intermittent, it wasnt filezilla's fault, I guess..but I'd prefer a program/method that wouldnt allow it to happen.. | 20:19 |
| yeats | ijwow: well, that doesn't sound like it's filezilla's fault - I would assume the same thing could happen with any similar program | 20:19 |
| yeats | (including nautilus, fwiw) | 20:19 |
| Finetundra | Bashing-om, no, i accidentally typed a program int the command line and it went a ta off | 20:20 |
| MrMan | hello there does anyone know how to remove the text that is presented at login for tty ? | 20:20 |
| MrMan | not the motd ^^ | 20:20 |
| Jordan_U | MrMan: What is your end goal? | 20:20 |
| ijwow | yeats, how about auto-saving while editing? I also was informed that text editors do it, but apparently gedit doesnt, am I right? | 20:20 |
| MrMan | just to have a <hostname> login: | 20:20 |
| MrMan | Jordan_U, ^^ | 20:21 |
| ijwow | I mean making it possible to always have some archive copy somewhere in the text program | 20:21 |
| yeats | ijwow: vi/vim does that - the original isn't touched until you write to it explicitly | 20:22 |
| ijwow | yeats, about ftp I was told that the thing that happened to me was what ftp was notorious for | 20:23 |
| yeats | ijwow: well, it doesn't autosave | 20:23 |
| ijwow | otherwise I was only happy with ftp/filezilla until now | 20:23 |
| yeats | ijwow: I would just take precautions to backup anything before editing - problem solved, right? | 20:23 |
| MrMan | Jordan_U, I think I found it under /etc/issue | 20:23 |
| ijwow | yeats, yes, sure, it is always possible | 20:23 |
| wildwind | ijwow: i'm sure there is plugin for gedit that do autosave every x minutes or so | 20:24 |
| === wolf is now known as Guest22814 | ||
| yeats | probably on for vim too ;-) | 20:24 |
| yeats | s/on/one/ | 20:24 |
| wildwind | ijwow: but your problem (accidental overwrite) can't be solved that way | 20:25 |
| ijwow | wildwind, yes, it cannot..only maybe if each autosaved copy is retained.. | 20:26 |
| wildwind | ijwow: having a habit to always edit file locally then upload is one possible solution | 20:26 |
| ijwow | wildwind, yes, that goes as the surest bet | 20:26 |
| wildwind | ijwow: using VCS (git for example) is another solution | 20:27 |
| wildwind | ijwow: each has it's pros and cons | 20:28 |

| Finetundra | Bashing-om, so what was the command that i needed to use to get it to switch to the desktop gui? | 20:34 |
| ijwow | wildwind, it seems that's how they restore websites when they crash or DDoSed ? :) | 20:34 |
| sparr | my boot is hanging at "* Starting set console keymap [OK]" what might cause that? | 20:35 |
| ijwow | wildwind, thank you for the link! | 20:36 |
| Finetundra | anyone know the command to switch from command line interface to desktop gui? | 20:36 |
| pchero1 | Finetundra: Alt+Ctrl+F7 ? | 20:37 |
| Finetundra | pchero1, well that did something | 20:37 |
| wildwind | ijwow: sometimes yes. usually sites got restored from backup (another wiki keyword ;) ) | 20:37 |

| Finetundra | pchero1, i just rebooted, so lets go from there | 20:40 |
| B0bsF1sh | So I don't have to reboot totally to get it usable at least. | 20:41 |
| pchero1 | ok | 20:41 |
| === shin_ is now known as Surendil | ||
| Finetundra | pchero1, what's the exact description of that command? | 20:42 |
| B0bsF1sh | Can anyone tell me why when I do "sudo service lightdm stop" - I get an unusable console? I just found out that I can "sudo service lightdm start" in an SSH session to make the console go back into Unity (the "don't have to reboot to get it usable comment") - but I can't make the console get to a usable text terminal. it looks like this when I stop lightdm: http://imgur.com/zMAI0Tt | 20:42 |
| pchero1 | Finetundra: Can you run Desktop gui? like startx? | 20:42 |
| Finetundra | i'm trying | 20:42 |
| pchero1 | ok. When you done to login to desktop gui, | 20:43 |
| pchero1 | then press alt+ctrl+F1 ~ F6 | 20:43 |
| pchero1 | then you will know what's that commands. | 20:43 |
| Jordan_U | B0bsF1sh: Have you tried just chvt'ing to a tty with some content? | 20:43 |
| pchero1 | Alt+Ctrl+F1 ~ F6 means it changes to command line interface. | 20:44 |
| pchero1 | But Alt+Ctrl+F7 changes to Desktop gui like gnome. | 20:44 |
| Finetundra | pchero1, i just got past grub, so i'll keep you posted | 20:44 |
| vaskozl | Hey, I'm using ubuntu without unity and as of recently notify-send has started showing a blue line with white text on the top left of the screen. | 20:44 |
| B0bsF1sh | Jordan_U: over my head - I see there's a chvt cmd. I'd need to do that on a remote SSH session though because as soon as I stop the lightdm service the console is unusable. Is that what you mean to try? | 20:45 |
| vaskozl | This happened sometime after the update to 14.04 | 20:45 |
| vaskozl | before it used to show a tranparent black block with white text that looked nice a bit below the top right of the screen | 20:45 |
| pchero1 | Finetundra: ok just go ahead. Pass the grub and wait until gdm shows up. | 20:45 |
| vaskozl | anyone know what could've caused the change in look of notify-send and how I might be able to change it back? | 20:45 |
| Finetundra | pchero1, back to the command line gui | 20:46 |
| Jordan_U | B0bsF1sh: chvt changes the virtual terminal that is currently active. It's the command equivalent of ctrl+alt+F#. | 20:46 |
| pchero1 | command line gui? | 20:47 |
| Finetundra | yes | 20:47 |
| pchero1 | Finetundra: did you logged in using gdm? | 20:47 |
| genii | Finetundra: Is it the grub boot prompt again, or a linux system prompt? | 20:47 |
| Finetundra | pchero1, no. logged in via the command line gui. | 20:48 |
| pchero1 | Finetundra: What version of linux did you install it? | 20:49 |
| Finetundra | genii, it's like what you'd be working in by opening terminal on your desktop only this is the desktop | 20:49 |
| Finetundra | pchero1, ubuntu 13.10 | 20:49 |
| B0bsF1sh | Jordan_U: no matter what number arg I send to chvt on my SSH session, I get this: "Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console" - I tried in my unresponsive console window, but I saw no difference (no feedback, it appears locked up) | 20:50 |
| genii | Finetundra: So linux prompt. I recall yesterday your grub was stuck, so progress seems to be made. | 20:50 |
| Jordan_U | B0bsF1sh: Did you try ctrl+alt+F1? | 20:50 |
| B0bsF1sh | Jordan_U: Yes, same thing (no apparent change) | 20:50 |
| B0bsF1sh | But, if I do sudo service lightdm start in my SSH session, my console window springs to life and I get back into the GUI | 20:51 |
| Finetundra | -genii, yes i'm past the grub problem now | 20:51 |
| pchero1 | Finetundra: ah.. I think your problem is your linux can not run gnome/de.. | 20:51 |
| genii | Finetundra: Can you run startx from there? | 20:52 |
| pchero1 | type "startx" | 20:52 |
| vaskozl | ping on the notify-send issue? | 20:52 |
| k1l | well, better start the lightdm instead of startx | 20:52 |
| Finetundra | that did something, but i don't know what yet | 20:52 |
| AR45 | sudo service lightdm start | 20:53 |
| bekks | pchero1: startx is deprecated. | 20:53 |
| Finetundra | bekks, now you say that | 20:53 |
| vaskozl | bekks: how else would you run without a DM? | 20:54 |
| bekks | vaskozl: You wont run it without a DM, thats what a DM is for. | 20:54 |
| vaskozl | I do and I see no reason why a DM is necessary. | 20:55 |
| vaskozl | infact a lot of people do | 20:55 |
| xubuntu | hi there | 20:55 |
| Timoty | what's a DM ? | 20:55 |
| k1l | vaskozl: the standard ubuntu is build around using a dm. | 20:55 |
| === xubuntu is now known as Guest20707 | ||

| Guest20707 | hi there | 20:55 |
| AR45 | !Desktop Manager | 20:55 |
| vaskozl | I'm just saying that startx is good if you don't want to run a DM. | 20:55 |
| Finetundra | pchero1, "xinit: connection to X server lost" | 20:55 |
| AR45 | !DesktopManager | 20:56 |
| k1l | vaskozl: of course you can run without dm, but you could also build everything from source. but that is not the ubuntu way, which makes sense on ubuntu | 20:56 |
| Timoty | I would like to know what is actually a DM | 20:56 |
| vaskozl | I'm not arguing with that | 20:56 |
| k1l | vaskozl: startx will mess with permission because ubuntu is build to use sudo and no root account. | 20:56 |
| vaskozl | sorry it's DE | 20:56 |
| bekks | vaskozl: a DE is different from a DM. | 20:56 |
| vaskozl | you have a WM and a DE | 20:56 |
| k1l | vaskozl: so, starting the dm that will handle the xserver etc for the user | 20:56 |
| bekks | Timoty: DM = display mamager, DE = desktop environment | 20:57 |
| AR45 | DM = xorg bro | 20:57 |
| vaskozl | oh, I'd confused it | 20:57 |
| bekks | AR45: that not true. | 20:57 |
| vaskozl | sorry then | 20:57 |
| Timoty | Okay. thanks | 20:57 |
| AR45 | bekks, uhuh | 20:57 |
| vaskozl | DM = login manager accoring to arch wiki | 20:57 |
| k1l | vaskozl: that is the part you see. but it starts the xserver in the background. | 20:58 |
| Finetundra | lightdm: unrecognized service | 20:58 |
| Jordan_U | AR45: Xorg is the Display Server, not the Display Manager. | 20:58 |

| Finetundra | pchero1, do you mean the OS or the actual machine | 20:59 |
| k1l | Finetundra: is lightdm installed? | 20:59 |
| pchero1 | Actuall machine. | 20:59 |
| AR45 | Once he does sudo apt-get install xorg he can it installs a dm called xinit no? | 21:00 |

| B0bsF1sh | Any other ideas on how to get a usable text console after stopping lightdm? | 21:04 |

| jflory | Hello all, I am looking for some advice about running Ubuntu on a rather... challenging device. I have an iMac desktop, specifically, the 7,1 2007 model, which seems to be renowned for having issues with Linux in general. I had tried installing Fedora before and ended up being unable to run X on it. So... | 21:16 |
| jflory | I was looking at the Ubuntu Documentation, and I found info for running 10.04 / 10.10 on my iMac, but I couldn't find anything about more recent versions. | 21:17 |
| Sunstream | that is a CLI? | 21:17 |
| Sunstream | Ubuntu 14.04.1 | 21:17 |
| jflory | Does anyone know if an iMac desktop can support more recent versions of Ubuntu than 10.04 / 10.10? | 21:17 |
| k1l | Sunstream: just run the updates | 21:17 |
| jflory | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iMac7-1/Lucid / https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iMac7-1/Maverick | 21:17 |
| Sunstream | Okay | 21:17 |
| k1l | Sunstream: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" that will install all updates | 21:18 |
| jflory | My information is based off of those two help pages in terms of trying to decide which version of Ubuntu to use on my iMac. | 21:18 |

| jakesyl | Hey guys, why am I getting a syntax error on : for %f in (*.docx) do w2m %f | 21:20 |
| Jordan_U | jflory: Start by just trying to boot from an Lubuntu 14.04 LiveCD/USB (Lubuntu since this is an older machine), if the Live environment works well then you'll probably be fine installing normally as well. | 21:21 |
| jakesyl | it says '(' was unexpected | 21:21 |
| bekks | jakesyl: Because thats an invalid syntax. | 21:21 |
| jakesyl | why? | 21:21 |
| Sunstream | lubuntu rules. Unity is just all purdy (pretty) :) | 21:22 |
| Jordan_U | jflory: There were so many odd ugly hacks for macs in those days that I don't recommend trying any suggestsions from years ago on a modern system without a lot of consideration. And I don't recommend just running an old version of Ubuntu either :) | 21:22 |
| bekks | jakesyl: Because it is invalid. Valid syntax would look like: for i in *.docx; do ...; done | 21:22 |
| eeee | jakesyl: for f in *.docx; do w2m $f; done | 21:22 |
| Jordan_U | eeee: jflory for f in *.docx; do w2m "$f"; done # Don't forget to quote your variables either. | 21:23 |
| eeee | ^^ yeah | 21:23 |
| jflory | Jordan_U: Noted! In that case, I will see if I can get an Lubuntu 14.04 USB booted off my iMac and see where that takes me. | 21:24 |
| jflory | If Ubuntu doesn't work, I'm going to just abandon hope at running Linux on my iMac at this point, hahah | 21:24 |
| Jordan_U | jflory: Also, you will likely have much better luck booting from CD than from USB. | 21:24 |
| jflory | I have a few CDs lying around | 21:24 |

| bekks | marianne: The macimum number of monitors depends on your graphics adapter(s) and their drivers. | 21:26 |
| turova | I just got an MSI GT70 and it's struggling with dual displays through the built-in graphics. When I connect a second display, it black screens for a second, shows the login screen, black screens again, shows the login screen again, etc. | 21:27 |
| turova | Is this the right channel and can anyone help me figure out why? | 21:27 |
| marianne | bekks: ok that makes sense... so as long as my hardware and drivers support it, 14.04 has no limitations? | 21:27 |

| meatmanek | right; kernel packages got all shuffled around between lucid and precise, I think; and I'm wondering whether there's something along the same lines as linux-image-extra on lucid; i.e. some package that includes common drivers | 21:34 |

| danostrowski | k1l: it wants to remove postgresql and postgresql-9.1 which is what it apparently tried to install, for a security update. | 21:45 |
| danostrowski | I'm guessing since I have version 9.1.9-0ubuntu12.10 installed it will be OK, but I'm worried about it removing the "postgres" package. | 21:45 |
| k1l | danostrowski: its hard to tell for us without seeing any messages/errors you see. but running 12.10 is a mess, since you did not recieve any security upates since ages. and not only shellshock but all the other big ones before that are still unfixed | 21:47 |

| Fillipe | Hi, how to update MySQL from 5.5 to 5.6 on Ubuntu 13 using command line? | 22:00 |
| k1l | Fillipe: i strongly suggest you first make sure you run a ubuntu release, that get security updates. which actually is 12.04 or 14.04. | 22:01 |
| snoop | ever since i updated ubuntu , its been acting really slow and the font seems like it changes and then changes back to the original font right away, its wierd. and also i cannot access external usb drives anymore. please help | 22:02 |
| Fillipe | k1l: I agree, the point is I need to try to run mysql first to test a specific app then run it | 22:03 |
| sokoll | snoop: have you updated your graphics driver? | 22:03 |
| snoop | also when i was updating, the comp froze | 22:03 |
| Fillipe | this is a server so I need to pause everything and do it durint overnight | 22:03 |
| OerHeks | Fillipe, but the 13.04/13.10 repos are down | 22:04 |
| k1l | Fillipe: that would mean you need to build from source or get a .deb package. | 22:04 |
| Fillipe | well that mean I have no idea how to do it | 22:05 |
| Fillipe | lol | 22:05 |
| jhutchins | snoop: Upgraded from what to what? | 22:05 |
| bekks | Fillipe: Then you should setup a testserver using 14.04 and test your app. | 22:05 |
| k1l | Fillipe: i think you should make a 14.04 setup (virtualbox etc) and test the app and then make a new start on a 14.04 reinstall after that. and for the future: stay on LTS for servers | 22:05 |
| Fillipe | that make sense | 22:06 |
| Fillipe | upgrading from 13 to 14.04 will stop my online apps? | 22:06 |

| yeats | loa: not sure I understand | 22:08 |

| turova | I got a msi gt70 and when I connect a second monitor it logs me out and keeps showing the login screen and blacking out everyone 1-2 seconds | 22:09 |
| Fillipe | k1l: gonna do it but it is a regular apache+php+mysql server, basic stuff | 22:09 |
| jhutchins | loa: Essentially the two X sessions are running on vtty7 and vtty8 | 22:11 |
| loa | jhutchins, i run into problem, that when i change tty when game is loading it's just silent crash. | 22:12 |
| loa | jhutchins, how do you it can appear or it is game bug? | 22:12 |
| jhutchins | loa: Actual tty sessions don't run there, if you kill X they go away. It's possible to have more or less than six virtual consoles, wich can sometimes affect where X starts, it can take whatever the next number tty is, or it can be forced to 7 (which I think most distros do now). | 22:12 |
| loa | how to change ttys actuallY | 22:12 |
| loa | is it bad? | 22:13 |
| jhutchins | loa: Something about how the game is handling graphics. They often do things that they're not supposed to do with hardware. | 22:13 |
| loa | hmm. such behaviour is only in one game, other work just fine. | 22:13 |
| loa | jhutchins, maybe you know, what actually compoziting systems do? for examaple compton? | 22:18 |
| loa | they somehow intercept frames from all applications? | 22:19 |
| loa | and combine them into one frame? | 22:19 |

| schnittchen | hi! i have a weird problem in a very special setup... testing system provisioning in our CI, the recent rsyslogd upgrade hangs when restarting the service | 22:58 |
| schnittchen | BUT only when executed from the provisioning script, not when I do that by hand. | 22:58 |

| Doc-Saintly | Is there an easy way to connect to wifi through comand line? :( can't I just say SSID / Pass? All the guides I see online are more complex than that | 23:37 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: if you want it easy use the network manager gui | 23:38 |
| Doc-Saintly | ikonia: don't have the GUI, seems like there has to be a method between a GUI and typing my password in binary ;) | 23:38 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: it's not as simple as "ifconfig wlan0 SSID=blah pass=boo" | 23:38 |

| ikonia | or even better, just use a desktop install | 23:40 |
| ikonia | zteam: no problem with it, just not the norm | 23:40 |
| ikonia | more so if configuring the wireless card outside of network manager it outside of your current knowledge range | 23:40 |
| Doc-Saintly | ikonia: I'm not opposed to learning, but that doesn't mean I won't ask the question "Why are we forced to do ti this way" | 23:41 |
| zteam | ikonia, maybe not, but why using a a ethernet cable if you don't have to | 23:41 |
| zteam | ikonia, :-) | 23:41 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: because there is more to confiugring a wireless card than a username and password | 23:41 |
| ikonia | and a sid | 23:41 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: and linux splits the interface configuration and wireless stack into two seperate processes | 23:41 |
| Doc-Saintly | ikonia: I'm well aware of that, and yet somehow, a GUI can do it with just that - which shows that it's possible to figure it out | 23:42 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: yes, the gui does the 2 processes for you | 23:42 |
| Doc-Saintly | but apparently enough people don't complain about it or just deal with it, and use these cumbersome config files | 23:42 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: and network manager can do it on the command line | 23:42 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: it's not cumversome, it's 3 lines on top of the additonal network config | 23:42 |
| ikonia | which considering it's managing two processes is nothing | 23:42 |

| Doc-Saintly | ikonia: well, it wouldn't be the first time you've made lots of assumptions that I've seen today ;) | 23:46 |
| acerspyro | Oh, man, I am so happy this install crashed. | 23:46 |
| acerspyro | That fricking disk drive. | 23:46 |
| zteam | ikonia, threre is lxde too, if RAM is your issue | 23:46 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: it would be | 23:46 |
| ikonia | Doc-Saintly: I've not made any assumptions | 23:47 |
| joseki | looks like the uuid might have somehow changed. is there a way to modify BOOT_IMAGE and then tell initramfs to try and boot? | 23:47 |
| k1l | Doc-Saintly: lubuntu hp works fine | 23:47 |
| Doc-Saintly | zteam: I was the one mentioning wanting the thinner client. | 23:47 |
| acerspyro | Btw, imma DD the .iso on my iPod shuffle | 23:47 |
| zteam | ikonia, sorry that was meant to Doc-Saintly | 23:47 |
| Doc-Saintly | yep, it seems to be up just fine now | 23:47 |
| ikonia | zteam: not a problem | 23:47 |
| zteam | Doc-Saintly, sorry, that was meant for you :-) | 23:47 |
| Doc-Saintly | zteam: yep, figured ;) | 23:47 |
| Doc-Saintly | zteam: the reason I didn't go with LXDE is I want a newer kernel | 23:47 |
| k1l | Doc-Saintly: http://askubuntu.com/questions/417935/what-are-the-command-line-alternatives-to-network-manager-nm-cli-wicd-wicd-c http://askubuntu.com/questions/493888/how-can-i-configure-network-manager-via-command-line-to-only-ever-connect-to-a | 23:48 |
| ikonia | lxde is a desktop | 23:48 |
| ikonia | it has nothing to do with the kernel | 23:48 |
| zteam | Doc-Saintly, I'm a little bit tired now :p | 23:48 |
| Doc-Saintly | ikonia: er, yea sorry - i was thinking linux mint LXDE | 23:48 |
| ikonia | that makes no sense | 23:48 |
| k1l | Doc-Saintly: but you seem to be mixing a lot of things here. | 23:48 |
| Doc-Saintly | thanks k1l , looking into it | 23:48 |
| zteam | Doc-Saintly, how do you mean? the kernel hasn't anything to do with desktop enviroment | 23:49 |
| joseki | ok | 23:49 |
| Doc-Saintly | zteam: indeed, but as I said, I was mixing up Linux Mint LXDE with the idea of installing my own desktop environment | 23:49 |
| joseki | so now i've mounted the proper root partition in /root | 23:49 |
| Doc-Saintly | and when I looked at LM LXDE it was using an older kernel (IIRC, but it was 2 am) | 23:50 |
| k1l | Doc-Saintly: or get your Lubuntu iso here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/ | 23:50 |
| k1l | Doc-Saintly: and since you seem to want to customize a lot you should think about making a minimal install and then install your DE | 23:50 |
| zteam | Doc-Saintly, okey, otherwise you can just ran sudo apt-get install tasksel and then run sudo tasksel and choose lxde desktop | 23:51 |
| Doc-Saintly | yea, or the site appears to be working now. Well, honestly, all this is more pain than I feel like putting up with thus far. The whole point of getting a newer kernel is so I can use the wireless card in the cases I don't have a hard connection | 23:51 |
| eeee | joseki: you have a seperate /root ? | 23:51 |
| joseki | yes | 23:52 |
| Doc-Saintly | and I don't want to install a GUI just to do the wireless because it's just a once or twice thing, I just expected it to be easier | 23:52 |
| monkwitdafunk | Will ubuntu trusty always be using kernel 3.13? | 23:52 |
| joseki | i have mounted / into /root (as this seems to be what initramfs does | 23:52 |
| Doc-Saintly | anyway, thanks for the suggestions all. I'm going to step away from this before I do something stupid like start using Hyper-V | 23:52 |
| k1l | monkwitdafunk: you can get a new kernel with the enablement stack | 23:53 |
| joseki | mdadm is available in initramfs and shows my array with the failed drive | 23:53 |
| monkwitdafunk | Trusty uses kernel 3.13 right? what if i wanted to stay with.kernel 3.13? | 23:53 |
| k1l | monkwitdafunk: just stay on 14.04 | 23:53 |
| monkwitdafunk | no. Trusty is r | 23:54 |
| joseki | i'm not sure what to do next now i guess | 23:54 |
| monkwitdafunk | Using 3.13 | 23:54 |
| eeee | monkwitdafunk: you could look into apt_preferences ( man apt_preferences ) | 23:54 |
| monkwitdafunk | precise uses 3.5 | 23:54 |
| joseki | but /root is what i want to be booting off of | 23:54 |
| k1l | monkwitdafunk: please get the facts straight. you asked for 3.13 | 23:54 |
| monkwitdafunk | i want my lan to have a homogenious kernel and grml in addition to knoppix is great | 23:55 |
| littlebrillo | I'm trying to use VNC with vino-server on utopic beta, UltraVNC client. The client connects but the screen doesn't update after the first paint. | 23:56 |
| === SirAndroo2 is now known as J-Blanchard | ||
| acerspyro | is it alright if I simply DD my 64-bit ISO to my USB drive? | 23:58 |
| littlebrillo | I can click on things though there's nothing apparently happening, but if I close and reopen the connection, it shows the windows I opened. Inputs are working, it just isn't showing any changes. | 23:58 |
| zteam | Doc-Saintly, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo#Using_the_command_Line | 23:59 |
| Ben64 | littlebrillo: #ubuntu+1 until release | 23:59 |
| littlebrillo | ah, thanks | 23:59 |
