[00:09] Sachiru, and when the SSD dies in 6 months, you have to reinstall everything. buy a cheap HDD, years of reliability [00:09] v: got a question? [00:10] SSD dies in 6 months? [00:10] very dubious claim, that. [00:10] There will be very few writes done to it [00:10] is xubuntu based on debian? [00:10] Due to once-a-week-three-hours-at-that usage, and, well, SSDs have come a long way [00:10] When it comes to endurance [00:11] xubuntu is based on ubuntu is based on debian [00:12] xubuntu is ubuntu with a different DE [00:12] Is Chromium web Browser of Google? Or google stealed it? [00:12] yea thats what i meant [00:13] google took chromium and made chrome from it [00:13] and they took linux and made android [00:13] not really the same thing.

[00:21] xpcjx87: me too, what is your question? [00:21] we won't know until you ask ;) [00:21] Regarding Ubuntu Studio, how do I easily change the computer name? -OR- What is the root password on a fresh install? [00:22] The root password should be whatever you made it when you installed it. [00:23] !root | xpcjx87 [00:23] xpcjx87: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [00:23] I didn't set any root password. [00:23] I have a lot of questions, Is Universe finite? What happens when we die? Does alien inteligent life exist? If universe has an end what happens when we reach that? How Universe started? [00:24] Just do $ sudo -s [00:24] v, one answer for you, of course it makes a noise, it's a FRIGGIN tree ;P [00:24] i found this https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html is a little diferent from what i did doesn it? [00:25] !42 | v [00:25] v: 42 is the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. [00:25] 42 / [00:25] ? [00:26] 1 [00:26] 42 / 1 [00:26] 21*2 [00:26] why 42 [00:27] ecause, Minecraft [00:27] Cuz, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. [00:27] "so long, and thanks for all the fish" [00:27] xpcjx87: to chnage computer name edit the files " /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname" change the field that has the current 'name' to what you desire . [00:28] Hiya [00:28] Yes, I know to change the hostname file, but I need root privilege. [00:29] !sudo | xpcjx87 [00:29] xpcjx87: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE).

[00:31] xpcjx87, you can open the text editor as root with gksudo gedit [00:31] I have this inside my Fstab http://paste.ubuntu.com/8555976/ so where i should put my UUID 47773e3b-0e01-464e-8b9f-c1fab63f1646 [00:31] I think it is already there doesn it ? [00:31] spearhead, aha, now we're getting somewhere. [00:32] normally in ubuntu the root user is disabled, is there a way to "see" if the root user is enabled or disabled? [00:32] wxl : [00:32] !root | unkn-error [00:32] unkn-error: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [00:32] if a user will use "sudo su" the root user will be enabled? === codethou_ is now known as codethought [00:32] sudo -s; takes you into root. [00:32] aha, sudo su worked. [00:32] so does sudo -i [00:33] yes [00:33] Where i should put the new line new line UUID=a6d4c93d-85f2-4c08-9a80-a1e18264846e none swap sw 0 0 ? at the text end ? [00:35] but for example I have this user "U" and user U will do "sudo su" in terminal/konsole. Now, normally the Display Manager will NOT allow a root login, but if that user will do a "sudo su" will the root be enabled, and if the Display Manager is configured to accept root logins will do a root login into the Desktop Env? [00:35] Aladiah: see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 <-bodhi.zazen-Understanding fstab . [00:36] unkn-error, sudo less /etc/shadow and see if there is anything after the first colon on the root line [00:36] unkn-error: 'sudo su' shouldn't ever be used in Ubuntu [00:36] If by "root enabled" you mean logging in as root, IIRC you can't do that. Ever. === blubberbop is now known as phoenixz [00:37] Switching into root, sure. Logging in as root? No. [00:38] Where's the ubuntu chat irc? [00:38] spearhead, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556006/ [00:38] Sachiru, yes you can... [00:38] garrie: #ubuntu-offtopic [00:38] so root is enabled in my box? [00:38] garrie: support questions in here [00:38] I have a support question, worry not. [00:39] unkn-error, no, if there was a long random character line like on the ui line then the root user would be enabled [00:39] Okay. Done. I did [sudo su] put in my password, typed [hostname X551MA] then typed [hostname] to check. [00:39] oh, so here is the sublime difference, " Switching into root, sure. Logging in as root" [00:39] I'm in the UK, and therefore us a UK keyboard layout. However, during boot up (i.e. while logging in and while putting in encryption pass), the keyboard defaults to US [00:39] See? A Simple answer like that can be done easily. [00:39] This makes my password, etc, a pain in the ass to enter. [00:39] spearhead, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo <-- Apparently you cannot log in as root directly [00:39] How to make it recognise uk layout at all stages? [00:39] Allow me to correct my statement, you cannot log in as root directly [00:39] Sachiru, I have done it many times... [00:40] right [00:40] I'm wrong then [00:41] on standard ubuntu root account got no password so you cant login. on ubuntu you use sudo if you need root rights. [00:41] ok spearhead enlighten us as to how you login as root [00:41] after you enable the root password you can then at the login screen choose to type in a user name and password [00:42] spearhead: and that is not the ubuntu way. so it doesnt matter in here [00:43] k1l_ whether or not it is the ubuntu way, it can be done, I do not recommend it... but it can be done [00:43] *sigh* [00:46] k1l_, one thing I am frustrated with the ubuntu community about is not informing people about stuff that can be done... whether or not it is recommended... let people make their own decisions [00:46] spearhead, that is a dangerous thing to do [00:47] they can find that info out for themselves, we stick to policy so that people don't break things. [00:47] I.E. I can inform a user that if he wants to uninstall a program he can do rm -rf /usr/bin [00:47] then at least done tell people that something can't be done... just ignore it [00:47] It's not recommended [00:47] *dont [00:47] spearhead: ok, then stay in here and help every beginner who messed with the rootaccount. but since you (like the other linux-gurus before) will not do this please stick to the ubuntu way in here.

I am on 64bit 14.04 [00:48] I only wish that Ubuntu fixed it so that running sudo -s is not necessary for manipulating KSM parameters [00:48] I tell everyone I talk to about it that using the root acount is not recommended and they should use sudo for everything...

[00:49] sudo echo "2500" > /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/sleep_millisecs does not work, I actually have to sudo -s and echo from there [00:49] Reload reloads the configuration.

[01:41] That is up to you I guess [01:41] cause i'm not really sure what to do with ubuntu right now [01:41] But you really can do a lot in Ubuntu, as well as any other linux distro [01:41] well, what do you want to do with it? [01:41] Run ubuntu in a VM first. [01:41] like what? [01:41] Linux is much better than windows [01:42] I mean, you can use it for office work, development, browsing the web, etc [01:42] http://whylinuxisbetter.com/ [01:42] there are a lot of advantages to using linux. [01:42] +1 @ooloo [01:42] looks like the page has been removed [01:42] ooloo, run it in a VM. [01:42] I think the worst part is just dealing with compatibility with things that weren't intended for a linux OS in the first place, which is actually a weird complain to have [01:42] Use it for a while before replacing Windows. [01:43] so do windows and ubuntu in vmware? [01:43] Sa[i]nT, and there are always virtual machines. [01:43] Yeah. I use Virtualbox [01:43] cause right now i dont know what am i suppose to do with ubuntu...unless u name 1 good thing about it. [01:43] i use vmware workstation [01:43] http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:org9q5jF9okJ:www.whylinuxisbetter.net/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=in [01:43] hulio, again, what do you want to do with ubuntu? [01:43] You may want to use Ubuntu for a while before abandoning windows. [01:44] ok tell me what do you like about ubuntu? [01:44] something u can do ? [01:44] I use Ubuntu x64 to make custom android roms for my devices [01:44] oh [01:44] And I make kernels too [01:44] what else is important to u? [01:44] i see [01:45] Linux esp. ubuntu provides many sets of tools req. for development [01:45] how about for regular normal person? [01:45] hulio, okay, I like that fact that the environment is intuitive, I can customize a lot more of it, it feels sleeker, and other things [01:45] hulio: if you don't have an actual problem with Ubuntu that we can help you with, try #ubuntu-offtopic [01:45] After using linux, you will find the crappiness of windows [01:45] Well, the customization of the OS is an outright understatement [01:45] Sorry had a call [01:46] can ubuntu get virus? [01:46] or spyware? [01:46] !viruses [01:46] Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [01:46] Not to mention the community for support of ubuntu/other linux distros is just so much better than windows. It's ridiculous. [01:46] hulio, I've never actually had spyware or viruses running linux [01:46] ever [01:46] Going to Linux from Windows is an almost impossible move for someone who is not accustomed to Linux already. [01:46] ubunut is only susceptible to low-level exploitations like Ebola [01:46] You'll have it a day and be reinstalling Windows. [01:46] Windows is closed source, no possible development and modifications and even no support [01:47] Sa[i]nT: I just did it [01:47] Sa[i]nT, yes, that is exactly i feel [01:47] i have it a day then reinstall windows lol [01:47] Use other Distros, really feel it out. [01:47] Sa[i]nT, i made the jump 3 years ago. only keep Windows because of 2 programs i need to run occasionally [01:47] Sachiru: same error, it cannot find the UUID of my sda4 which is where i installed lubuntu, sudo blkid says it is the UUID but grub2 cannot find [01:47] Because there is no point in using Linux for just the sake of using Linux. [01:47] hulio, you might notice that most linux distros don't come prepackaged with virtually any anti-spyware or virus anything, because it just isn't as necessary [01:47] How do I get a remote GUI session on my Windows box? I have. I have Xming installed. "X11Forwarding yes" in sshd_config. In PuTTY I have Enable X11 forwarding on with my IP address in the X display location box. I launch XLaunch, select one window, start a program, enter "xeyes -display localhost:0" - and then nothing happens. [01:48] That's like buying a ferrari and never going over 45mph [01:48] Its the right of every user to choose their own linux distro :P [01:48] distrowatch.com [01:48] I frequent distrowatch. [01:48] hulio, that being said, ubuntu is actually not my favorite linux distro, but it's a really good place to start for someone who hasn't used linux. [01:48] hey, anyone knows of a lubuntu or xubuntu spinn good for a 12 year old kid? [01:48] Sa[i]nT, i use Linux because i loathe Windows, 'nuf said ;P [01:48] Arch linux, epicness [01:48] @ForTheWin, are you in a livecd? [01:48] My main choice is Gentoo, lol. [01:48] larsantos, edubuntu [01:48] larsantos, yeah, that sounds fine. [01:49] Sachiru: yes the same one i used to install lubuntu [01:49] Dunno if trolling or really does not know the use of Ubuntu [01:49] arch linux is pretty great. [01:49] Ubuntu is an OS, just like Windows. It does what Windows can do, just in a different way and with different tools. [01:49] great, thanks ObrienDave and ooloo [01:49] Arch is good. [01:49] pacman breaks all the time for me. [01:49] !ot [01:49] #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! [01:49] arch is unstable [01:49] Sachiru: oh i need help please, im mostly selftaught but still largely a noob [01:49] Sa[i]nT, and that's why I favor slackware over arch [01:50] Well, arch is for core linux users [01:50] I'll go back to the Ubuntu topic. [01:50] jesusaurus, it does emphasize that it's "bleeding edge" [01:50] ooloo, i'm going to use linux for few more day [01:50] ooloo, i do have vmware for linux to have windows [01:50] old != stable [01:51] hulio, all right. I mean, it's your call. If it's not right for you, then it's not right for you. If it's the desktop environment you don't like, you should try different linux distros and see if there is one that is more your style. [01:51] @ForTheWin: How did you install? Direct to HDD or under Wubi? [01:51] http://distrowatch.com is a great resource for hunting down that sort of thing [01:51] Is wubi still around? lol. [01:51] Sachiru: direct to HDD with this liveusb [01:51] Sa[i]nT: it isn't officially supported these days [01:51] hulio, but I do wonder what you want out of Ubuntu, or any other OS for that matter. [01:51] I haven't seen it in a while. [01:52] ForTheWin, Please run the following command, then paste the links you get here: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit [01:52] the UUID is supposed to point to where i put the primary ext4, right? which i mounted to /? [01:52] Sachiru: ok [01:53] Sa[i]nT, WUBI is still included in the ISOs [01:53] And the following as well: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid | pastebinit [01:53] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556288/ [01:53] ooloo, i love the nero burner 4 for linux [01:53] If you're not planning on doing work, coding, graphics, running servers, or scraping pages, you're not going to like linux lol. [01:54] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556290/ [01:54] * ObrienDave loves my Xubuntu ;P [01:54] hulio, that is good. There are many great native programs for linux. [01:54] ooloo, name a few good one? [01:55] I see linux as one giant built in C++ compiler. That's what brought be to it. That and Perl. [01:55] Plus, it runs like a scalded dog. [01:55] -Unless- it's OpenSUSE. [01:56] lol [01:56] when i install lubuntu am i supposed to create primary ext4 first(mount /) then logical ext4(mount /home) then logical swap? in that order? [01:56] it matters not the order. [01:56] nero burner 4, $20? right. k3b works for me, free [01:56] I do SWAP, then ROOT, then HOME [01:56] would have loved to be able to get Sabayon on here, or even on my laptop, but on the laptop I have two vid cards and it gets confused [01:56] Make the root part bootable. [01:57] Sa[i]nT: because when i created ROOT first, the rest of my free space kept becoming UNUSABLE [01:57] ouch [01:57] doesnt the installer make it bootflagged automatically? [01:57] anyway I just said: [01:57] Sa[i]nT, I wouldn't say that is accurate. My wife does none of those things, and loves linux. She runs elementary. [01:57] @ForTheWin Order doesnt' matter but it would have been nice if you put /boot in a separate partition [01:58] for some reason my hd has 3 partitions, a 100mb partition(made by windows?), the main windows partition, and the recovery partition [01:58] ooloo, I was using it in context from someone moving from Windows to Linux. [01:58] I have numerous friends who use linux and aren't developers or anything special. They don't seem to have problems. [01:58] Okay, can you please run the following commands: mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt/ubuntu [01:58] ForTheWin, standard Win setup [01:59] Sorry, sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt/ubuntu [01:59] Then sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda7 /mnt/ubuntu/home [01:59] Then sudo mount -t proc none /mnt/ubuntu/proc [02:00] Then mount -o bind /dev /mnt/ubuntu/dev [02:00] Sorry, sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/ubuntu/dev [02:00] Message me via private message when you're done [02:00] mount point /mnt/ubuntu does not exist [02:00] And we can continue this via pm [02:00] Sachiru: ok [02:01] hey guys, remind me plz, how can I compare the file sizes of all files in 2 directories? should be = for each pair and I want a confirm [02:02] MrMonkey31: du -sh /path/to/directory [02:02] How do I get a remote GUI session on my Windows box? I have. I have Xming installed. "X11Forwarding yes" in sshd_config. In PuTTY I have Enable X11 forwarding on with my IP address in the X display location box. I launch XLaunch, select one window, start a program, enter "xeyes -display localhost:0" - and then nothing happens. [02:06] ooloo, will photoshop work on linux? [02:07] hulio, that's a windows program, but it can run under WINE or windows VM. Gimp is a native alternative. === paefa is now known as arcangelblanco [02:09] there are other alternatives as well, like inkscape, pixlr (for browser), and Krita if you use KDE [02:10] ooloo, is it good idea to run adobe photoshop in wine? any performace or betterrun it on windows? [02:10] hulio, I've actually never tried. I run it in VM, as well as flash [02:10] https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=25607 but here's the WINE page for photoshop CS6 [02:11] but I don't use photoshop very often. I use aseprite, flash, and inkscape. [02:12] lol photoshop 7 has a platinum WINE rating... not like that's a big help [02:13] I use GIMP all the time ... and that's on Windows [02:13] oh wow [02:13] yeah, gimp is pretty powerful. I like photoshop's IDE better, but I've heard some people who say they prefer gimp's [02:14] So hard to help a person with ADD to troubleshoot [02:14] i like GIMP in single window mode [02:14] "Yeah I did that it did not work", "Do it again", "Yeah now it works". [02:14] Obviously you didn't do it [02:14] I'm sorry what were you saying? I wasn't paying attention === charles_ is now known as Guest97944 [02:15] wait.. you can run gimp in a single window? [02:15] ooloo, yes, sec [02:16] I think I'd actually use gimp a lot if I did that... [02:16] GIMP, windows, single window mode [02:16] thank you ObrienDave, I found it [02:16] that is so much better [02:16] Yeah, they just added that I think. [02:17] yes, last release [02:17] fantastic! [02:17] I've been a user of gimp for years. [02:17] ooloo cool I've had confusion with that single window mode as it sometimes comes up that way for uknown reasons [02:17] or the one before, don't remember [02:18] anyway hulio, gimp is like photoshop and is is supported natively. [02:18] I'm really happy about this single window mode... [02:18] it's the little things [02:18] Well, I wouldn't call it 'photoshop' lol. [02:18] that was seriously my least favorite thing about gimp [02:18] But it's pretty good. [02:18] Sa[i]nT, yeah, I guess it depends on what you're trying to do with it [02:18] it's fine for my purposes [02:19] i have a question [02:20] Mugen_Deutsche: I think the answer is 44 [02:21] Do NOT use Paypal. Paypal is dangerous. Scammers use Paypal, Paypal can freeze accounts and steal your money at any moment. AVOID Paypal. See here: http://imagebin.org/321672 [02:21] i am using ubuntu 14 and when i click the envelope at the upper right corner i cannot see Ubuntu One, Broadcast, Update Status, Available, Away, Busy. How can i put all of them there ? [02:21] uh... thanks Paypal_Warning [02:21] Oh by the way i am a linux newbie. i just installed ubuntu last night === havanamint is now known as havanamint_out [02:26] Any good solutions for soundcloud integration? [02:27] integration with?? [02:27] anything? [02:27] I'm new to linux. I just installed ubuntu two nights ago. I figure there has to be something out there [02:28] what are you trying to accomplish? [02:28] well, I'm not sure what you mean? Soundcloud works normally. [02:28] I guess I want an application or widget type thing [02:28] This could be of some use http://help.soundcloud.com/customer/portal/articles/1392540-how-can-i-listen-to-soundcloud-on-linux-without-flash- ?? [02:29] I actually haven't had a problem in firefox but I want something I can control it with from my side bar or taskbar [02:29] or, nevermind, that's probably not what you're looking for [02:29] i am using ubuntu 14 and when i click the envelope at the upper right corner i cannot see Ubuntu One, Broadcast, Update Status, Available, Away, Busy. How can i put all of them there ? [02:30] hm, I wonder if there is a soundcloud plugin for rhythmbox [02:30] I know there's a soundcloud app for ubuntu, but I've never used it [02:31] Mugen_Deutsche: you mean ubuntu files¿ [02:32] Mugen_Deutsche, it's something about editing indicator plugins, iirc. [02:35] uniquedepiction, this might help you http://askubuntu.com/questions/92592/are-there-any-desktop-clients-for-soundcloud [02:37] My laptop's touchpad stopped working. The buttons on the touchpad work (right click and left click), but I can't move the cursor. How do I debug this? [02:39] camtron, don't be mad at me, but have you tried rebooting? [02:40] Yes. The issue persists after rebooting, even with my external usb mouse unplugged. [02:41] is it listed when you type "xinput list" in the terminal?

[03:17] ok [03:21] hey gang - first time here. I've been reading for about 20 min to make sure I'm in the right place. [03:21] I love ubuntu, but one thing drives me nuts. I wonder if anyone knows how to fix it? [03:21] prime2_: you reader you [03:21] prime2_: no, but many ones do [03:22] prime2_: If you have an ubuntu support question, you are indeed at the right place. [03:22] The nautilus window locks the name column to a very narrow width when in window mode. [03:22] So narrow, in fact, that I can't read the name, especially for long files [03:23] I can add or subtract columns as a workaround, but it's not ideal... [03:23] i've heard there's a really weird rule as to whether a column in Nautilus is resizable, something like the column beside it needs to have extra width [03:24] i don't remember though. try another file manager. [03:24] mmm, I know how wto fix that in Thunar :) [03:24] how_to* [03:24] I installed nemo, but random crashes ensued [03:24] I prefer dolphin to nautilus [03:24] I really like nemo, but it doesn;t seems to get along with unity === |Aerides| is now known as Aerides [03:25] dolphin works fine in unity [03:26] which distro uses dolphin? I'll try it out [03:26] any [03:26] great! I'll try it. Thanks! [03:26] if that's your only problem with nautilus though, I'd just fix that [03:26] changing everything over one issue is not reasonable [03:26] you will spend your entire life changing everything if that's how you operate [03:26] every waking moment [03:27] problems don't fix themselves [03:27] most distros use dolphin... [03:27] I'd rather tweak that one thing, if possible, but I'm open to a new one [03:27] ooloo: uh, nope [03:27] I mean, most distros *can* use dolphin [03:27] I should have said [03:27] I am dumb [03:27] all distros, in fact :) [03:27] lol [03:27] I'm running the latest live CD in memory and seems all SysRq events besides sync are disabled.

I am trying to do the following. 1) Install Ubuntu. 2) Enable auto login to desktop 2.5) enable particular mac address 3) enable networking 4) pick up dhcp address 5) enable SSH 6) install vncserver 7) put password on vnc server 8) start vncserver 9) disable screen saver 10) wait for remote connection 11) run completely from ram [03:32] step 2) make sure it runs under wine. wait, that should be step #1 [03:33] ObrienDave: part of 1 :p [03:34] reisio, i'm a bubble burster. that's what i do best ;P [03:34] oh and 12) disable sleep mode === Abhijit is now known as Guest31224 [03:35] hikenboot, +1 ;P [03:35] +1 ? [03:36] livebuild [03:36] SolarisBoy, should the things I listed be possible with livebuild? [03:37] it wont make a copy of a current - but it will use debootstrap to start from a base debian (or whatever) chroot [03:37] then you build up from there that + a preseed should allow you to what you want - you may even be able to use a preseed for the majority of it [03:37] hikenboot, sorry, thought you were commenting on the wine question === s0meone is now known as someone [03:42] hikenboot: another thing you may want to look at constructing a custom initramfs - but that also may be a little more difficult as im not sure of any applications that build them out for you, so you'd be responsible for making sure any services running in initramfs have the proper libs/drivers loaded [03:44] thanks SolarisBoy, I was hoping I might get away with this being not too difficult or time consuming. I am doing this so I can recover partially failed bios installs that prevent the video from working properly [03:44] so i have headless machines I am trying to connect to [03:44] interesting - livebuild may save you time then - they even have a CGI web page that will build out your iso based on data you put in a web form lol [03:45] ok I will give it a shot [03:45] cool [03:52] anyone have an idea as to why ubuntu locks up when playing a game for a long period of time?

[04:11] File sha256.h found in gnulib, libapt-pkg-dev, libbeecrypt-dev, libbg1-dev, libcrystalspace-dev, libnacl-dev, libpolarssl-dev, linux-headers-3.13.0-24-generic, linux-headers-3.13.0-24-lowlatency, linux-headers-3.13.0-27-generic (and 19 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=sha256.h&mode=&suite=trusty&arch=any [04:12] daftykins: yay, death of learning, gj [04:12] obrienDave, thanks for the welcome message [04:12] I ran both apt-file search sha256.h and apt-file search sha256.h (I did run apt-file update first) [04:12] take your snide remarks elsewhere reisio. [04:12] ?join #debian [04:13] reisio, go to #defocus [04:13] er, one of those was alg/sha256.h [04:15] Right, there are plenty of sha256.h headers, but not one in the "alg" folder, whatever that may be. [04:16] How do I know which one is correct? [04:16] any BitchX users here? [04:17] daftykins: will do === sins-_m is now known as sins- [04:23] kris__, cleaning hardware is almost always a GOOD idea. [04:24] cfhowlett, sounds good [04:25] Any idea why NetworkManager runs /sbin/dnsmasq on ubuntu 12.04 ? [04:26] is there a way to use the 127.0.0.1 as localhost instead of 127.0.1.1, you know, like Linux has done for 25 years just fine until canonical decided to put DNSmasq in there for whatever reason? [04:26] It seems to not cause problems, but is totally pointless, I just went though installing an actual dhcp server to provide internet to a subnet on my eth0, and here I have this dnsmask running for no reason [04:26] Hey guys. How do I partition using terminal? [04:26] jr_, parted [04:26] ObrienDave: it's just called, 'parted'? [04:27] yes [04:27] jr, is that disk partition ? [04:27] short for PARTition EDitor [04:28] kris__: yes [04:28] vexati0n: as far as I know any ip with 127.x.x.x will still be localhost [04:28] jr, interesting [04:29] kris__: why is that? [04:31] sacarlson1: "localhost" is a hostname just like any other hostname, and it can only resolve to a single IP address. in Ubuntu, that IP is 127.0.1.1, which breaks various programs that bind to 127.0.0.1 (because that's what localhost has been since IP was invented a billion years ago) [04:31] a billion??? thought it was only a million or so [04:32] a bit ago [04:32] ObrienDave: Al Gore invented them a few years back [04:32] no it's fully a billion. new carbon dating techniques, etc. [04:32] Jr, never did partition using command line [04:32] oh yea, forgot about Al Gore ;P [04:33] kris__: ah [04:33] I did it befoore -but I forgot how [04:33] 2 million, at least [04:33] they found cave paintings done by cavelizards where they were calculating subnets the hard way. [04:33] vexati0n: well if I put 127.3.3.3 in my browser I still end up at the same place that localhost takes me, I guess you can still track the ip usage in iptables to verify what took you there [04:35] sure, but what i mean is... i have a program (brackets editor) that listens specifically on 127.0.0.1, but then points requests to "http://localhost:9234" for various things. as a result, its process runs fine but those requests fail because they're heading to 127.0.1.1, not 127.0.1.1 [04:35] oddly, on my (safely old pre-spyware ubuntu installation)... I have localhost resolving correctly to 127.0.0.1... *and*, I have my actual hostname resolving to 127.0.1.1 [04:35] * gtristan would like to get rid of this network manager completely [04:36] jr_: See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive , it has terminal method. [04:37] jr, the link is neat :) [04:38] vexati0n: I guess you can open up the listen so that it will listen on all address of an interface like we do on apache, I'm not sure if you can add masks so you can listen on a mask of addresses [04:39] i'm trying to run apt-get update on my ec2 instance and have: W: Failed to fetch http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/universe/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.200 80] [04:39] the image is very fresh, i don't know why that happens [04:40] vexati0n: also I'm not sure that a hostname can only point to a single ip address as you do a dig yahoo.com and I see it points to 3 A ip addresses === dave is now known as Guest23115 [04:43] Is there a way to automatically mount an external hard drive on boot? [04:43] I am looking for a "libscrypt" which seems to be in "sid" according to google but it is not available in my repo. Is there something I can do to gain access to it? [04:44] bookpage: Earlier we had reports of similar errors, differnt mirror, changing the mirror resoloved the problems. [04:44] bookpage: is that missing ip going to make the package you need fail to install? if so maybe you could try another mirrored distribution [04:45] so... conclusion, there is no way to disable this annoying dnsmasq process from running ? [04:45] sacarlson1: hosts files don't do round-robin DNS (which is what you see when you lookup yahoo.com) and nothing but your hosts file resolves "localhost" [04:45] jr, are you trying to install ubuntu in externel HDD ? [04:45] I need help making my Netgear WNDA3100v1 wireless adapter work with ubuntu 14.04 [04:45] Bashing-om: how can I test it? I don't think the address that the error gives should be resolvable anyway (adding .gz to the end makes it so) [04:45] jr_: automounting can be done in fstab file : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 <-bodhi.zazen-Understanding fstab . [04:46] * gtristan does not need a dns server, and already has a proper dhcpd running for his needs, no reason for network manager to try to control everything [04:46] jr_: /etc/fstab [04:46] sacarlson1: Nope, it's making my script fail though, because it expects apt-get update to work [04:46] kris__: no [04:47] The device is listed under lsusb, but it isn't working === Daemoen_ is now known as daemoen === rrrre445534 is now known as the_mighty_bogan [04:50] jr, so why you want to use HDD while booting, just curious? [04:51] Sorry, dc'd - how can I test that my mirror is working? [04:52] gtristan: I would assume you could stop it as I'm not running it but I've also stoped network-manager, maybe service dnsmasq stop [04:52] jr_: You're looking for `udisks`. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions [04:52] this url seems to work fine: http://91.189.92.200/ubuntu/dists/precise/universe/binary-i386/ [04:56] !eol [04:56] End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [04:56] !preload [04:56] sacarlson1, eh, yeah then I have to setup networking manually on wan0, I was sort of hoping to rely on the automated network manager stuff just to get the internet on wan0, and have my manual thing that works to host the internet on eth0 (laptop and I have a little device that plugs in and needs internet) [04:56] bookpage: ya I'm not sure, but maybe you could bypass that your script must see update work instead but this is probly not what you want command > /dev/null 2>&1 [04:56] How do I find what kind of filesystem is on my external disk? [04:57] jr_: gparted [04:57] Ben64: thanks [04:57] but hey, things are kinda working so I can live with it, the disturbing thing is that it seems to run a dns server [04:57] Ben64: I mean using terminal [04:57] Is there anybody here using preload ? [04:58] jr_: parted [04:58] like, my resolv.conf says: nameserver 127.0.0.1... really weird [04:58] gtristan: I think there is another wifi manager that overrides or replaces network-manager that might work better for you [04:58] sacarlson1, I'll look into that anyway thanks [04:59] !swappiness [04:59] jr_: Or fdisk... `fdisk /dev/sdX -l` [05:01] gtristan: I think I used to use wicd as my wifi manager that used to work better than network-manager but since network-manager has improved [05:01] gtristan: i think the localhost nameserver has to do with a dns cache, but cant recall the specifics [05:08] How do I create a shortcut that opens gnome-terminal and automatically runs a command, holding the terminal open when the command exits?

[08:40] drlimbo: i think Yrie was proposing to check if the files have already been processed ( as in after processing you send them somewhere ) [08:41] drlimbo: you could, make a file list of the processed files, and use grep to see if it's there [08:41] <|m0nk|> working [08:41] <|m0nk|> hahaa im on ubuntu [08:42] <|m0nk|> does stuff like msi afterrburner work on ubu?

[11:46] I enter "env", putty fills up with a bunch of "▒" to as far as scroll back can see and then the terminal session times out after a while. [11:46] What could be casuing this? [11:47] yep [11:48] I'm receiving a gzipped archive through netcat, but when I pipe it into gunzip it just prints to stdout instead of disk. How do I make it do the latter? [11:49] evil_dan2wik: maybe you did not specify to use utf-8 in putty [11:49] hateball, I ran "env" [11:49] it normally doesn't do this. [11:50] evil_dan2wik: Normally as in the other times you connect in the same way running "env" ? [11:50] yes. [11:50] Normally, it displays a normal environment. [11:51] I'll try to jam the output into a file so I can pastebin it. [11:52] tixz: try adding " > filename" at the end (without "") [11:52] irth: What if it's recursive on the sender end, so that there's a whole tree being sent? [11:52] oh [11:53] it is a gzipped archive? [11:53] can you show me the command you use on the receiving end [11:53] ? [11:53] and the sending one too [11:54] am I screwed?

[12:12] back box is ubuntu or debian? [12:12] yeah makes sense [12:12] ttyX: What was your goal in compiling it from source? Surely there is already a binary that is patched for your version. [12:12] pajeroooooooos [12:12] it's maverick [12:12] yo [12:12] Hola [12:12] anyone know tachyon? or infiniband [12:13] Do you speak spanish? [12:13] zx, I know of tachyon.

[12:14] bonjour [12:14] salut [12:15] do you know chine? [12:15] ttyX: AH ok, then you can reinstall the binary that was created from checkinstall. [12:15] chinese [12:16] but I dunno what went wrong [12:16] i did make uninstall first [12:17] I hope I can fix my mess this weekend [12:17] ttyX: Then you may want to see where it installed it to. Perhaps in /usr/local/bin/bash or something. Run "dpkg -L bash" when you get a chance. [12:17] when the server isn't under a lot of load [12:18] yeah I'll do that when I get the chance [12:19] till then fingers crossed [12:19] youre doing experimental work on a production server?

Why controlling Mopidy with media keys doesn't work, despite me being able to control it via volume control applet?\ [14:30] Ahad: http://askubuntu.com/questions/325560/multiple-wireless-adapters-which-is-under-using [14:30] Ahad: you can turn off whichever device you want with ifconfig and such [14:31] Hi All, I am having a really weird problem on an Ubuntu 12.04 server that has been working correctly for weeks. I have a /22 subnet (A) this server is on. All servers on this subnet have access to another /22 subnet (B) and /22 subnet (C). For some reason this server on A randomly does not connect or want to talk to servers on B or C. If I restart the networking or change it’s IP to another IP on A it works for a few seconds, then stops [14:31] also randomly for a few seconds allows communications to B and C and then stops. All other servers on A can communicate to B or C without issue. Now the real kicker is the traceroute. If I traceroute to a server in subnet C which is allowed from all servers it shows me going through an IP on subnet B. But if I tracroute that IP on subnet B directly it does not work and will not allow me through it. See the results - [14:31] http://pastebin.com/N6F35Suv [14:32] thanks FilthyMacNasty and EriC^^ :D [14:34] smartin_: I believe my head just sploded [14:34] Hi. Why controlling Mopidy with media keys doesn't work, despite me being able to control it via volume control applet?\ [14:35] FilthyMacNasty: tell me about it, I have never seen this and it is driving me crazy. I am very competent at networking usually but this one has me stumped and blown away! [14:35] turn them all off, bring up one machine at a time and see where it dies [14:36] FilthyMacNasty: The fun part is that randomly although very infrequent it works traceroute, ping eveyrthing works then stops... [14:36] have you put your hand on top of the router lately? [14:37] FilthyMacNasty: maybe it always "has a headache" ? :P [14:37] FilthyMacNasty: no but it works for every other server, and to kick it all off, sorry I should have mentioned this. This is a VM in a VmWare DRS cluster which uses a DPortGroupSwitch which is a link of 4 physical NIC’s to 1 NIC for all VM’s to use. No other VM on Subnet A in the same VMware infrastructure using the same switch, host, etc is having an issue. [14:39] I'd say shut them all down, and bring them up one by one till it fails [14:39] FilthyMacNasty: Only one VM is in a failed state, everything else works [14:40] Is there a way to see a lot of package updates available in the ubuntu repositories as they become available? [14:40] FilthyMacNasty: so you want me to restart the one failing VM? Or the rest of the working infrastructure? [14:40] just the broken one I'd say [14:40] I had a conflict between a couple packages, and now I'm not receiving many updates at all, which is surprising, so I want to compare that against what packages have been published to the repositories [14:40] FilthyMacNasty: I have already done that, on reboot it works for a few seconds [14:40] FilthyMacNasty: I will reboot it again :) [14:41] what is the last thing it says when it fails? [14:41] FilthyMacNasty: It doesn’t say anything. You just cannot access those subnets. [14:41] Hi. Why controlling Mopidy with media keys doesn't work, despite me being able to control it via volume control applet? [14:41] Nothing in dmesg, nothing is syslog... [14:42] thats peculiar [14:43] FilthyMacNasty: I know :( [14:45] hello [14:45] why do I need xine player? [14:45] I haven't used xine since like 2006...

Perhabs by using the PPA of Rico Tzschichholz? [19:52] !ppa | RobBurkeOne in the ubuntu repos for support [19:52] RobBurkeOne in the ubuntu repos for support: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

See also !addppa and !ppa-purge === AlphaBeta is now known as PsiOmega [19:54] bubbasaures: I quite know what a ppa is, thanks ;) What I did not know is that there is in fact 3.14 in the official 14.04 repos [19:54] sound odd to me [19:54] +s [19:55] RobBurkeOne, 14.04 is 3.10 [19:55] hi [19:55] I'm trying to install steam [19:56] did some search and found some one saying to use this command to found missing libs... [19:56] LANG=C LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${HOME}/Steam/ubuntu12_32 ldd ${HOME}/Steam/ubuntu12_32/* | grep 'not found' [19:56] I got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8560854/ [19:56] do I really need to install all those? [19:56] I have "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcups.so.2" [19:56] bubbasaures: So, what was your point for the official support repos then? [19:57] RobBurkeOne, You miss read 3.14 is not in the repos we support what is however. [19:57] Hey [19:57] Can someone explain how I can run virtual machines using KVM [19:58] For my personal use, not as a server. [19:58] If that makes any sense. [19:58] bubbasaures: FWIK 14.04 comes with 3.10, 14.10 will ship 3.12. So, in order to use 3.14 I have to use a ppa, like Ricos, right? [19:59] jhutchins: tried "apt-get install anything" and get "packages held" errors, but no packages are held! [19:59] RobBurkeOne, This is all not supported, unity8 is the end goal however. This channel is straight actual issue support. [20:00] What does unity 8 have to do with Gnome 3.14? [20:01] RobBurkeOne: Unity is about 90% GNOME [20:01] it's a different window manager and very-front-end configuration [20:02] But I will nethertheless be able to use Gnome 3.14 and Unity7. Or is Unity7 somehow dependant of Gnome <3.14? [20:02] + < 3.14 [20:03] RobBurkeOne: you can use whatever you like [20:03] the "Ubuntu" version of Ubuntu by default installs Unity [20:03] you can change it if you like [20:04] My initial question was whether someone has tried gnome 3.14 from a ppa like Rico's in 14.04. So I indeed consider changing it. [20:05] But before I upgrade my system to an unsupported version of gnome I wanted to hear some experiences before :) [20:06] RobBurkeOne: unsupported? [20:06] 3.14 is not officially supported in 14.04 [20:06] RobBurkeOne: PPA's are not supported so you are on your own, also notice the gnome PPA breaks unity [20:07] So there is no way to use Unity and another gnome ppa in parallel? [20:09] So one of my internal hard drives isn't mounting on boot. I have to go to Nautilus and press the icon for the drive in order to read / write from it. What's that about? [20:11] Corvette: check /etc/fstab [20:11] !fstab [20:11] The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [20:12] Corvette: you could also check in "Disks" > highlight drive > adjust mounting options (click on the two little gears icon) [20:13] squinty let me check if that worked [20:16] What do you think are the biggest determining factors, of bringing down the price of cloud object storage ? [20:16] not being off topic [20:16] smart_developer: 'cloud object storage' is meaningless, it has no definition and never will have [20:17] the biggest price factor of anything however is always demand [20:17] and besides is off topic [20:18] smart_developer: amount of a cloud objects that producers and firms are willing to sell [20:18] Hi. I am typing a document and have a brazilian keyboard with dead (compose) keys. Actual behavior is ^+a = â, ^+space = ^ but ^+* = nothing. Since there is no accent over *, it just does nothing. I like to get ^+* = ^+*. What should I do? [20:18] the amount we can mine from the earth :p [20:18] reisio : What do you mean that the term is meaningless ? [20:19] frasson, buy a new keyboard [20:19] frasson: is that what you expect from a layout based on experience, or just something you want? [20:19] smart_developer: it has no definition, it is not quantifiable, it is a series of buzzwords === aaearon_ is now known as aaearon [20:19] smart_developer, This is offtopic, all the answers were just not needed. [20:20] reiso, that is whay I expect. Windows does this, for example [20:20] reisio, [20:20] Hi [20:20] frasson: okay [20:20] frasson: what's the output of setxkbmap -query ?

[20:24] well yes but support not related to ubuntu [20:24] frasson: you might want br,en_US instead [20:24] or maybe it could be ubuntu related [20:25] Guest21488, This is ubuntu support, so it sounds not relevant. [20:25] frasson: or in addition to -layout us,br you might also want -variant intl [20:25] Guest21488, probably asking if yo are not able to tell is a good start. [20:25] you* === Carlos is now known as CarlosEnBits [20:26] reisio, thanks. How do I set such things? [20:26] what I want help with is finding a useful research topic [20:26] frasson: well you can do quick tests with setxkbmap itself [20:26] I have been looking into cloud computing [20:26] Guest21488: Try #ubuntu-offtopic [20:26] ah ok [20:26] thank you [20:26] Guest21488, Try #ubuntu-offtopic [20:27] reisio, ok. I think I can do it. Thanks for the advises. [20:27] frasson: setxkbmap -model 'pc105' -layout 'br,us' -variant 'intl' [20:27] stuff like that [20:27] frasson: I've also read that -variant 'intl,nodeadkeys' can help, as counter-intuitive as that might seem... no harm trying it if you run out of things [20:27] presumably you could also explicitly say 'intl,deadkeys', or 'deadkeys', I'd have to look it up [20:28] frasson: once you figure out what's right, there are a number of ways to make it "permanent", ask the channel about Ubuntu's preferred way === epzil0n is now known as Guest14390 [20:30] reisio, I started trying the layouts and still no luck. I would like to keep deadkeys, because I am tiping brazilian text, with lots of accents, but with several X^* for example, so `like ^+a=â and ^+*=^* (and the same for all chars without accent). [20:31] Hello, I just install ubuntu 14.04 and uname gives me a kernel 3.13.0-32-generic, shouldn't it be >= 3.8.0? [20:31] reisio, but it is already a start. I will google a bit for it. If I succed, I tell the solution. [20:32] :) [20:32] Bastianb, nope, 3.13 is right ( after install) now upgrade to 3.13.0-37 [20:33] frasson: it's hard to imagine it isn't just the wrong layout/combination of layouts, but I don't really know [20:33] Okay thanks ! [20:33] frasson: you might query the channel that /msg alis list *ubunt*br spits out [20:33] frasson: they'd probably know about such things [20:34] reisio, good idea. I will go there as well. [20:36] I made the terrible mistake of plugging headphones into my computer :( [20:36] Now, when I unplug, it still tries to play as headphones, so I get no sound. [20:37] What should I do? [20:37] I'm wanting to use the laptop speakers, not the headphone jack. [20:37] I think the sound settings used to say something to the effect of Laptop Speakers or Default Audio or something. [20:37] When I plug in a USB headset, that device shows up as well. [20:38] lmat: might try restarting the alsa service [20:38] and/or pulseaudio one [20:38] reisio: Thanks for the suggestion. I did sudo service pulseaudio restart; [20:39] lmat: work? === guntbert_ is now known as guntbert [20:39] reisio: And the response was "stop: Unknown instance: pulseaudio start/running, process 14793" [20:39] reisio: I don't see a service for alsa, what should it be called? [20:41] lmat: alsa, alsasound, something like that [20:41] reisio: yeah, nothing like that. [20:41] oh wait, I just restarted pulseaudio. [20:41] lmat, could be that the phug switch is stuck [20:41] reisio: The sound for the meeting in which I am never stopped. [20:41] ObrienDave: So I need to roughly draw out the plug? [20:41] *plug [20:42] ObrienDave: or maybe ram it a bit? [20:42] or clean it out [20:42] dirt and/or lint might be in there [20:43] if it is not a laptop, maybe you can see inside the machine and see if the switch is lame [20:43] ObrienDave: that's happened to you before? [20:43] OerHeks: it's a laptop :) [20:43] ObrienDave: Believable. I never use that plug. [20:44] ObrienDave: I tried insertion and withdrawal to no avail. Perhaps I'll fetch some compressed air.. [20:44] reisio, i've seen many strange things happen over 40 years of dealing with computers ;P [20:44] Of course, I am in a meeting... [20:44] ObrienDave: is that a yes? :p [20:44] lmat: if you're pressed for time, you might try rebooting first :p [20:44] reisio, a definite maybe ;P [20:44] reisio: I'm in a meeting! ^_^ [20:44] ObrienDave: plbbb :p [20:44] lmat: fire everyone and start a new meeting [20:44] rofl [20:45] reisio: Good idea, just a sec [20:46] you like that fake version? 's'nice, right? :) [20:46] lmat: right click on sound icon > settings > output > speaker/headphones try unplugging in the headphones and see if "headphones" changes to "speakers" [20:46] lmat: or vica versa [20:46] squinty: I see the list, and only headphones is in the list. [20:46] squinty: When I unplug, nothing changes. [20:47] squinty: My symptoms match ObrienDave 's suggestion: the plug switch may have some debris in it. [20:47] I just moved Saturday, and these tinted windows are awesome [20:47] lmat: sounds like it then [20:47] I always think it's rainy and overcast. [20:48] But it might actually be sunny or balmy [20:48] doesn't mean it isn't :p [20:48] reisio: Right now it happens to be muggy ;) [20:49] today is overcast, but not cold like yesterday, so I'm happy [20:49] I don't like having to have the windows closed [20:49] gives me cabin fever [20:49] This new house has an attic fan :) [20:50] This last summer, we only had our air conditioner on for about 3 weeks or so (Indiana, USA). Next summer, perhaps we won't turn it on at all :-O [20:50] on topic please [20:50] (We just moved here [20:50] right [20:50] yeah attic fans are good [20:50] my friends need one, they're on the top floor [20:51] !ot [20:51] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

I think I have the Centrino Advanced-N 6205 network controller. I'm not sure how to replicate the issue here at home, but at two different wireless spots where the connection was working for my phone, it lost access to the wireless network and wasn't able to get it again before rebooting. [20:54] I do notice, though that sudo service networking stop results in : stop: Job failed while stopping , and a message in dmesg: init: networking post-stop process .. terminated with status 100 [20:55] The driver used is iwlwifi. [20:56] hi, does anybody know how to use the repeater mode on a wifi adapter? [20:57] Since upgrading (from 12.04) to 14.04.1, when I resume from sleep, my USB headset does not work right. It won't show up in volume controls. I have to fiddle with pavucontrol to even get it to do that. But when it does, it thinks it's an input-only device (or maybe an output only device, depends on the day). Once I reboot, I again have to fiddle with pavucontrol to tell it the right kind of device (duplex stereo) and to not use the [20:57] monitor, but the actual device for input. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot/fix this? [21:00] Network doesn't work after my computer goes offline, and trying to stop the networking service fails, so does starting it and restarting. Anyone's got an idea of what's going on? [21:01] Uh [21:01] after my computer goes offline and back online* [21:01] So much join and go... [21:02] acerspyro: I think I've got the same issue. I have a Intel Advanced-N 6205 on a Thinkpad T520. You? [21:02] I have a VIA chip [21:02] acerspyro: Do you use IPv6? [21:02] stormzen: Not that I know of. [21:03] ( I've never disabled IPv6 on my machine, but I see messages about it dmesg. No idea if that's the norm or not. ) [21:03] I didn't disable it either [21:03] acerspyro: Rebooting allows you to connect again, right? [21:03] But IPv4 IPs are given thru DHCP [21:03] stormzen: yep [21:03] Otherwise, it just keeps failing and my system somehow ends up... [21:03] lagging. [21:03] Until I disable the network. [21:04] My keyboard ate bread crumbs for dinner... Crunchy. [21:04] When I carry it around, it ends up on my screen :D [21:04] But that's O-T [21:09] Seems to be pretty dead here today. Is this the best place to get help on wireless issues? [21:09] stormzen: It's wired here. [21:09] Does it work fine with a wired connection for you? [21:09] stormzen: what kind of wifi issues? [21:09] Yes, acerspyro. Doesn't use the same controller. [21:10] Weird. [21:10] I'm having an issue with wireless networking on 14.04. I think I have the Centrino Advanced-N 6205 network controller.

[21:10] But [21:10] Why can't I restart the service? [21:10] the network service [21:10] sudo service network restart [21:10] Stopping fails, starting fails. [21:10] I do notice, though that sudo service networking stop results in : stop: Job failed while stopping , and a message in dmesg: init: networking post-stop process .. terminated with status 100 [21:11] here too === ravigehlot is now known as catuca [21:11] reisio: After a restart, the problem persists :( [21:11] Now I will never have music from my laptop again :'( [21:11] does anyone use xmonad? [21:12] lmat: Sorry, I came in too late, what's your issue? [21:12] i have alot of problem getting xmobar to show up after login [21:12] it shows up after i open a second workspace thou [21:13] Huh.

[21:15] heh, just switched to kvirc and had to figure out how to do that here too [21:16] oh. [21:16] Well, I don't want to hide them, I want to know if the guy I was talking to is gone. === ubuntu is now known as Guest7867 [21:16] acerspyro: irccloud FTW [21:16] hi guys.. is it "safer" to store a password in a bash expect script than to input it as a command ? [21:16] nu||: Anyone can get the file and see it. [21:16] nu||: why would that be safer? === UseTheSourceLuke is now known as LuckUseTheSource [21:17] putting a passwd in a file/script is not safe at all === LuckUseTheSource is now known as LukeUseTheSource [21:17] nu||: entering the password when prompted would be the most secure solution === gthank is now known as zz_gthank [21:17] nu||: "SETUID" [21:17] nu||: putting it in the command line would be safer than putting it in a script I think [21:18] i use various applications that lets me reference a file containing my credentials for services rather than input it or have it in say, fstab [21:18] hello, anyone falimiar with jack and alsa? [21:18] lemme try something different [21:18] So I have no USB Drives or DVD/CDs and want to get Ubuntu on this crappy laptop but I keep getting a permissions error when i use wubi to try and install it? [21:18] tell nu|| about SETUID [21:18] what, no snarpy bot? [21:19] when you use wubi do you just extract Wubi from the iso and put them in the same folder and run it? [21:19] Or should I be extracting some other files as well? [21:19] LukeUseTheSource: dont use wubi [21:19] !SETID [21:20] If I had another choice right now I would [21:20] I have no way to get a USB drive or DVD [21:20] or CD [21:20] LukeUseTheSource: you could try to setup a pxe install. or a debootstrap. but its way easier to just use a usb or a cd/dvd [21:20] anyone familiar with ALSA or JACK? [21:20] nu||: well that isn't putting it directly in the script, but if the script was sufficientlly secured, I don't see why that would be an issue. That said, I still prefer to keep credentials in a credentials file so I don't accidently upload it to github [21:21] LukeUseTheSource: k1| is right [21:21] acerspyro: Thanks for asking! [21:21] aethersis: probably someone is [21:21] K1rk: Obviously it is easier.. like I said I have no way to get a dvd/USB I live 40 Miles from a store and my car is broke down lol [21:21] acerspyro: I made the mistake of plugging something into the headphone jack. Now Ubuntu doesn't acknowledge that there are other ways of playing sound. [21:21] acerspyro: If you will, it's "stuck" on headphone mode :) [21:22] lol, how many times have I faced this one :) [21:22] From what I have read wubi is still working and supported just not for Windows 8 [21:22] I have a problem in linux with clicking noise when I record with ALSA or play with JACK [21:22] lmat: did it "suddently" started happening? [21:22] acerspyro: ObrienDave suggested that something was stuck in te jack. [21:22] acerspyro: yes. [21:22] wubi working, right [21:22] So any help with wubi or am I just gunna get herp derp use a dvd? [21:22] LukeUseTheSource: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot [21:22] lmat: is there something stuck in the jack? [21:22] acerspyro: So I stuck a toothpick down there and fished around for a bit. I blew in it (not with an air canister or anything), and I stuck in and out the headphone jack. [21:23] Jacked in the jack? :P [21:23] acerspyro: All to no avail [21:23] Is there a way to install libgmp.so.3 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS? [21:23] acerspyro: I looked a bit and saw the metal thing at the end, and didn't see any obstructions (although I didn't see well) [21:23] !find libgmp | mietek_ [21:23] lmat: Got PavuControl? [21:23] mietek_: Found: libgmp-dev, libgmp10, libgmp10-doc, libgmp3-dev, libgmpxx4ldbl [21:23] acerspyro: yup I think so. [21:23] I don't know why the hell it's not installed along with Pulse... === mietek_ is now known as mietek [21:24] squinty: That requires I have grub installed [21:24] lmat: Try checking what device is the default. [21:24] acerspyro: hey, hey! [21:24] lmat, worse case is the switch actually broke off. turn OFF laptop and see if you can hear anything rattling around inside [21:24] acerspyro: it says "Port: Speakers (unavailable)" [21:24] ... [21:24] xangua: thanks, I did actually try doing that before asking [21:24] Try changing it? [21:24] acerspyro: and "Headphones (Plugged in)" [21:24] Can anyone just help me with wubi instead of deciding there is a better way when i have tried the others ways already, trust me [21:24] LukeUseTheSource: wubi will break your installs. and is very hard to support. so you are most times on your own then [21:24] Huh, strange. [21:25] xangua: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/libgmp3-dev/filelist [21:25] Is WUBI even supported anymore? [21:25] I have used wubi many times,it doesnt break anything.. its fully supported.. [21:25] IIRC, WUBI was pulled from the ISOs [21:25] tgm4883: iirc no. [21:25] Yes wubi is still active for BIOS setups [21:25] LukeUseTheSource, WUBI installs are not supported here [21:25] Here, it says "Headphones (unplugged)", but the speakers are not unavailable. [21:25] !wubi [21:25] Wubi allows you to install or uninstall Ubuntu 12.04 LTS from within Windows ( version 7 or earlier ) in a simple and safe way.

File wubi bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug [21:26] No wubi was not pulled from the ISO [21:26] I can't believe that noone can find a solution for my problem [21:26] tgm, WUBI is still in the 14.04.1 ISO [21:26] LukeUseTheSource, did you try to install ubuntu via ethernet? [21:26] acerspyro: hmm [21:26] If I plug something in, the speakers do become unavailable. [21:26] Wubi is supported here actually. [21:26] you need 2 computers for that but should be easier than with wubi [21:26] hi [21:26] acerspyro: yup, it's stuck :( [21:26] wubi never worked for me [21:26] anyone using mouse MX518 got the buttons + and - working?

[21:27] Either something is physically stuck in there, the port shorted or Pulse is going nuts. [21:27] acerspyro: I think the former, maybe the second, probably not the last. [21:27] Why do you keep triggering that wubi factoid? [21:27] acesypro, do you have realtek chip on your mobo? [21:27] lmat: do headphones work when you plug them in? [21:27] aethersis: tab please [21:27] Yes it doesnt work with uefi we all know that [21:27] LukeUseTheSource: WUBI is only supported here if someone is here that can support it. [21:27] acerspyro: yes! [21:28] It is still supported for BIOS setups and still comes on ever Ubuntu Desktop ISO [21:28] aethersis: On my laptop? [21:28] LukeUseTheSource: again: most supporters dont support wubi since its a mess. you are on your own there. if you dont like the answer doesnt change the supporters mind and experience [21:28] So quit telling me it isnt supported here [21:28] I have an Intel HD audio chip [21:28] acerspyro, I mean where does the problem persist [21:28] aethersis: I do not have the sound problem [21:28] there's a program called HDA jack retask or something like that - it lets you control inputs and retask them [21:28] lmat does [21:28] WUBI is NOT in the Xubuntu ISO [21:28] LukeUseTheSource: relax, we were just looking for clarification on status and we got it [21:28] If you can't help with WUBI then just dont try, quit trolling [21:28] LukeUseTheSource: so if you want to use wubi go ahead. but dont force the supporters to help you against their will. [21:29] I already told you the status [21:29] lmat: which means... Uh. [21:29] * acerspyro thinks [21:29] I am not forcing anyone [21:29] acerspyro: ;-) [21:29] ...Nothing? Sadly, I think it means nothing. [21:29] LukeUseTheSource: calm down [21:29] yeah lmat the program is called HDAJackRetask [21:29] acerspyro: I'll get rough with it later. [21:29] LukeUseTheSource, if you can't get wubi working try installation over lan [21:29] I was just informing this arrogant guy that he is incorrect. [21:29] LukeUseTheSource: calm down now. last warning. [21:30] Bios doesnt support network boot [21:30] LukeUseTheSource: Don't be an acerspyro [21:30] :) [21:30] -- Pro tip from achernya [21:30] acerspyro* [21:30] LukeUseTheSource: k1l acerspyro ok, lets get beyond all that and actually support stuff OK? [21:30] LukeUseTheSource, then remove hard drive from the laptop, create separate partition for ubuntu boot and install it from hdd to the same hdd, It can be done [21:30] I also tried it and it worked :D [21:30] LukeUseTheSource: can you please restate your original questions [21:31] Why are you warning me? This guy continues to tell me WUBI will break stuff it isnt supported, use other methods, etc.. if he cant help please just let other people ry instead of making up stuff [21:31] tgm4883: Oh please, don't start, that's not how we stop such a discussion, as it lets both participants raging. [21:31] And that only makes it worse. [21:31] aethersis: I dont have another machine [21:31] can't someone do that for you? [21:32] wubi actually works sometimes and sometimes it does not. That's a sad fact about it [21:32] acerspyro: it clogs up the chat for others looking for support and it isn't actually support (it's arguing whether something is supported or not) [21:32] This place is as useless as always, full of elitists who always think they know your situation and are usually wrong. Ill goto the forum where actual help can be gotten [21:32] tgm4883: it is. Don't suddently stop smoking, you'll get health problems. [21:33] LukeUseTheSource: im not an elitist but i am never wrong ;) [21:33] lol rage quit [21:33] LukeUseTheSource, you don't have USB, DVD/CD or Net install. removing HD and installing in another computer seems to be the only way [21:33] geez [21:33] Nevermind! ^.^ [21:33] the solution I advised him would actually work lol [21:33] I wanted to say get a new laptop but I stopped myself xD [21:33] it would be fun to go back through the logs and see his previous questions since "This place is as useless as always" [21:34] :D [21:34] is anyone pro with alsa and jack? [21:34] So I have no USB Drives or DVD/CDs and want to get Ubuntu on this crappy laptop but I keep getting a permissions error when i use wubi to try and install it? [21:34] I must solve this problem and they can't help me even on the forums lol [21:34] guys no need to make more drama out of it. please help to calm the situation down and focus on support again. thanks [21:34] ObrienDave, Luke already quit [21:34] is there a channel for Xubuntu? [21:34] aethersis: sucks when that happens. [21:34] lista [21:34] yes, join #xubunut [21:34] I'm using UCK to customize an installation.

[21:35] Google hasn't indexed anything for "LukeUseTheSource" on irclogs.ubuntu.com [21:36] and I beg you on my knees is anyone familiar with jack or alsa? It seems like it's something so arcane that even the best linux pros don't understand it hahah [21:36] tgm4883: its enough now. let it go [21:36] aethersis: Well, I use my computer, then I put my router offline (connectionless, not powered down). When I put it back on, the network won't work. [21:36] Trying to restart the network service errors and I have to reboot. [21:36] seems like a problem with DHCP maybe === kandinsk1 is now known as kandinski [21:37] Also, when it tries to connect, my computer starts lagging terribly. [21:37] have you tried to simulate similar event by disconnecting and then connecting LAN wire? [21:37] *cable [21:37] hang on [21:37] see what happens - it may be a problem with your router as well lol [21:38] aethersis: nope [21:38] it doesn't happen? [21:38] Not a problem with my router [21:38] let me reboot [21:38] yeah reboot and then disconnect and connect LAN cable again and see if it's the same as if you put the router in connectionless state [21:39] -sigh- I really wish I could fix my Plymouth boot screen. Looks like some sort of BSOD when it shuts down :P [21:39] Purple screen with words going over the Ubuntu text and the four dots [21:40] if it will behave differently, then I don't know the solution, if it behaves the same , then you should see if it gets message from DHCP [21:40] acerspyro, I love this purple screen :D but mine is even better - it's BLUE :D [21:40] aethersis: lol, but I want plymouth to be graphical [21:40] for what [21:41] aethersis: Because it looks better [21:41] if everything goes as it goes, we will soon have BIOS written in java hahah xD [21:41] Hang on, imma time out === climbup is now known as zz_climbup === Cimelide is now known as Cimelide_ [21:41] odos como estan [21:42] anyone familiar with JACK or ALSA? === Cimelide_ is now known as Cimelide [21:42] vvvvv [21:43] aethersis: back [21:43] welcome back :D [21:43] The trigger is human [21:43] so connecting the wire worked as it should? [21:43] Nothing happens when I 1. Disconnect the wire 2. Put the router offline === Cimelide is now known as Cimelide_ [21:43] Network still works [21:43] You know what makes the network not work? [21:43] no lol [21:44] Me, disabling the network via the "disable network" button because the network error messages are annoying. [21:44] When I re-enable it, it doesn't work. [21:44] apparently there's a hardware switch for that and when you reenable network, the switch is still in off mode [21:44] .-. [21:45] I doubt there's anything you can do about it because it's most likely on the hardware side [21:45] but, but... [21:45] but is it hard to reconnect the wire? :D [21:45] Anyone who is going to tell me not to compare Ubuntu to other distros, shut up. [21:45] Ahem... It worked on Arch :) [21:45] you can always buy a LAN extension cord and put it in an easily accessible place [21:45] whaaa [21:46] aethersis: Thing is, it's going to nag me because the network is offline [21:46] aethersis: fwiw, seems the noise problem is a know situation according to the following http://jackaudio.org/faq/ "How do I stop JACK from creating pops, clicks and other artifacts?" only problem is there is no further information (no link) to be had... if there was a solution, you would think that the main jack site would present one [21:46] My router is only a router connected to another router acting as a gateway. [21:46] wait I think I misunderstood you [21:46] my system hard-crashed in the middle of an upgrade, and now I've got some screwed up dependencies... Looking for suggestions on how to resolve. [21:47] On ArchLinux, I could disable the network and re-enable it with no issues. [21:47] squinty it's impossible there's no solution :'( [21:47] libgcc1 is the one that's showing up when I 'apt-get install -f' [21:47] aethersis: maybe you are right...then again. seems though it is not a ubuntu support question [21:47] but that won't install because of a pre-dependency on multiarch-support, which is not configured. 'dpkg --configure multiarch-support' gives me an error with libc6 not configured [21:48] but squinty, I also have problem when I record with alsa - there's clicking too! [21:48] acerspyro, what if you do sudo service networking restart [21:48] 'dpkg --configure libc6' won't run, because it says that it's got a dependency on libgcc1, which brings me back to the top of the list :) [21:48] Hi, when I take a screenshot it's just a black image [21:48] aethersis: fails [21:48] I'M in virtualbox [21:48] XD that's impossible [21:48] start fails, and stop fails. [21:48] aethersis: it is. [21:48] what does it say [21:49] what if you do sudo ifconfig eth0 down and then up? [21:49] stop: Job failed while stopping [21:49] XD [21:49] Fail at failing. [21:49] that's insane it never happened to me [21:49] what about ifconfig? [21:50] no problem [21:50] how about trying sudo service network-manager restart [21:50] I bet you have this $#@$@! installed [21:50] aethersis: oh [21:50] Any thoughts on resolving a broken circular dependency on (libgcc1, libc6, multiarch-support)? [21:50] network-manager didn't show up in tab completion [21:50] Ok, that works, tho my network isn't failed right now. [21:50] hi [21:51] HA [21:51] try to fail your network and do that thing! [21:51] wait, I ned to unplug the wire AND disable the network for it to fail. [21:51] anyone using MX518 got the DPI buttons working? [21:52] remember, network-manager is an evil beast! If you mess up with your etc/network file and use network-manager, everything will EXPLODE! it has its own lovely settings and it doesnt like you playing with etc/network! [21:52] huh. what the (we all know it but I don't know why I can't say it, but apparently I can't.)? [21:52] ??? [21:52] It won't fail. [21:53] Straaaaaange. [21:53] hahah I sent you good vibrations through the wirez :D [21:53] who should i ask now [21:53] I think I need to wait for it to notice it's offline for it to fail. [21:53] I hope it got automagically fixed :D [21:53] dear all guys, anybody knows how to change port or max connections in peerflix command line ? [21:53] aethersis: however, restarting network-manager works, so that will probably fix it. [21:54] If it still happens, I'll see you tomorrow since I do have crap to do on it right now ^.^ [21:54] alright [21:54] I will be here tomorrow I hope [21:54] probs lol [21:54] or you can send me an email [21:54] peerflix -link -c 300 -p 60000 seems dont' work [21:59] Hello, just got an error in my PC ubuntu 14.04 64bit "Executable path> /usr/lib/upower/upowerd --------package upower09.23-2ubuntu1 -------------------- problem type> Crash"does anyone know what exactly that issue?

If someone says they will, there is a 95% chance that they won't actually do it. [22:02] So, yeah. [22:02] But since you won't take that as a good excuse because who knows, I will read them.

[22:54] hey guys, how well does a macbook pro retina 2014 run ubuntu? === kat is now known as Guest80566 [22:54] are there any incompatibilities? [22:55] not to dual boot. === cowboy is now known as cowboykid [23:08] hi guys, i have 3 external hd disk NTFS full of files. how can my ubuntu read my external hard disk ? [23:08] Mugen_Deutsche: plug in, done [23:08] but it doesnt work [23:08] Mugen_Deutsche: sure it does [23:09] i mean there is nothing i could see [23:09] Mugen_Deutsche: where'd you look? [23:09] do i have to type anything from the terminal ? [23:09] in the desktop [23:09] Mugen_Deutsche: open your file manager and look on the left side [23:10] i could only see 1 [23:11] i had him install ntfs-config [23:11] yeah but i can only see 1 hddisk [23:11] Mugen_Deutsche: which one? [23:11] which one ? the external hdisk [23:12] ...which one can you see [23:13] Mugen_Deutsche, If they are not all showing in the left side panel in home than you might need to run a chkdsk on them from windows, linux can be pick on file systems being in good shape [23:13] picky* [23:13] the 1 external hddisk. but i still have to see the other 2. [23:13] Mugen_Deutsche: are they plugged in? [23:13] yeah [23:13] Mugen_Deutsche: to a desktop? [23:14] they are plugged in [23:14] !who | Mugen_Deutsche [23:14] Mugen_Deutsche: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [23:15] oh ok. got no idea. thanks for the info hehehe [23:15] especially hard to see who you're talking to between the noise of bot spam [23:15] hi everyone [23:15] Mugen_Deutsche: is it a desktop? [23:15] chui: hi [23:15] reisio, yes it is a desktop [23:16] i got a quick question i have a HP 500 slate any ideas on whether ubuntu would work [23:17] chui: should give you an idea: http://www.google.com/search?q="hp+500"+site%3Aubuntuforums.org [23:17] my guess is it works fine [23:17] Mugen_Deutsche: you can try ntfsresize -fi /dev/foo# if you haven't got a Windows chkdsk handy [23:17] chui, Standard answer is boot a live and see. [23:18] hmmm [23:18] ok, reisio. i will try your suggestion [23:18] which is the latest flavor? [23:19] chui: ubuntu.com [23:20] cos the win 7 it comes with is ugh!!! slow as heck!!! it was a free unit so figured might as well try something else [23:20] @reisio thanks [23:20] #reisio [23:23] how do you ping somebody [23:24] does ubuntu 14.0 support tablets [23:24] chui, Looking at that tablet I would look at lightweight linux like xubuntu or lubuntu myself, lubuntu is the lightest. [23:24] chui, I have an aceraspire with the same basic hardware, runs ubuntu okay with a SSD. [23:25] lubuntu? @bubbasures [23:25] !lubuntu [23:25] lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [23:25] aaah cool [23:25] free, nice [23:26] which lubuntu would it be for 32 bit Processor [23:26] the one that says i386 [23:27] chui, I have run lubuntu on my nexus 7, touch screen friendly it is. [23:28] chui: sure you have a 32-bit processor? [23:28] aaah just hope it works on HP 500 slate...it was a unit that was about to get trashed [23:28] intel atom processor z540 [23:30] reisio, it says failed to check /dev/foo# [23:30] Mugen_Deutsche: right, that's a placeholder [23:31] Mugen_Deutsche: see lsblk -f output to find the right replacement [23:31] chui: ok :) [23:31] 32-bit with vt-x [23:31] far out :p [23:32] hahaa #reisio [23:33] Hi all. Does Ubuntu still have spyware installed by default? I just watched Richard Stallman's video and am concerned. [23:34] Guest32814: it was removed IIRC [23:34] @reision far out ahead of its time [23:34] So there is no more Amazon and dash search spyware now? [23:34] Guest32814: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_%28user_interface%29#Privacy_controversy [23:35] thanks [23:35] chui: I think they just flip a coin to decide whether or not to include vt-x on each individual processor [23:35] there appears to be no rhyme or reason to it [23:35] should I kill myself? [23:36] haha its a selling point @reisio and at the time 2011 was award winning [23:36] suicide, nevermore ? [23:36] yea [23:36] But why? [23:36] Hey guys, i need to disable automounting on usb for an ubuntu live cd which doesn't ship with dconf-editor. any way i can remove this without requiring dconf-editor? I need to plug in about 1500 usb devices for a marketing campaign [23:36] i have my own script that will take care of mounting/unmounting [23:36] your choice, nevermore [23:37] So spyware is still on by default. [23:37] I am not using the OS. [23:37] reisio, i already did the lsblk -f [23:38] what do u want me to check ? [23:38] it says sda 1, sda 2 and sda 5 [23:38] sdb 1 and sdd1 [23:39] 15 more minutes before i install it last time i install any ubuntu flavor was when it was 8.0 @reisio [23:41] i dont even know how they sold these thingy with Win7 its slow and laggy as helll @bubbasaures [23:41] this serious [23:41] I am considering to kill myself [23:41] nevermore, why not talk to your gf hehehe [23:42] nevermoreraven: what do you accomplish if you kill yourself [23:42] um nothingness [23:42] complete bliss === Ubuntu is now known as druzenje36bg [23:42] and killing yourself is a sign of weakness. a weak and loser person :) [23:43] hmmm so I am a loser [23:43] another reason to die [23:43] nevermoreraven, leave now or get banned. your choice [23:43] nevermoreraven: you're not a loser, but anything is better than nothing [23:43] This channel is not the place to discuss this topic [23:44] if u haven't accomplished anything then try to make something that u can be proud of, something that the person who will bury you will be proud of u. [23:44] do that before u die :) [23:44] it's a cliche but suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem [23:44] Please get back to supporting Ubuntu. [23:45] no, this fool come on here every 2 weeks to see how much they can stir up [23:45] back to regular programming [23:45] anyone know any multithreaded programs offhand other than gimp? [23:46] pzkpfw: lot of server software [23:46] anything where performance comes up [23:46] wondering about arm versions of linux... I know ubuntu has one, or two.. one is a server version, and the celly version is still in beta.. [23:47] would the celly version work on a tablet [23:47] or is there still issues with processor/kernel [23:47] Mugen_Deutsche: Are you telling a person who wants to commit suicide that committing suicide is a sign of weakness..? [23:47] How German. lol [23:48] m{a}zel: celly? [23:48] just wondering because i am getting a Surface2 tomorrow and at some point would like to try and get something else on it [23:48] Cellphone reisio [23:48] nevermoreraven: no point in doing something that accomplishes nothing :p [23:48] m{a}zel: ah [23:48] m{a}zel: you're getting a non-pro surface? [23:48] Mugen_Deutsche: No offense though, but it is kind of ironic. [23:49] yes, don't have a choice, its what is offered through my school [23:49] m{a}zel: those are locked up, there is no guarantee you will ever be able to replace the OS on an arm surface [23:49] nevermoreraven: How old are you? [23:49] you can with a pro, though [23:49] and I am already awre that it's tightly locked down.. fort Knox couldn't hold a candle to it if I understand correctly right now [23:49] well, there's an encrypted key you need or something [23:50] I know XDA is working on it with limited success [23:50] been reading about it [23:50] I don't think the efi shim even works around it, but I forget [23:50] Guest32814: please drop it. [23:50] I can't imagine there is too much motivation, the non-pro surface is still very expensive for a table [23:50] I encrypted my SSD during installation of Ubuntu. How do I encrypt my storage disks? :/ [23:50] tablet* [23:50] phuh: Ahh, ok, fair enough. [23:50] I know [23:50] Guest32814: what [23:51] he tab commpleted the wrong name. [23:51] sorry, phuh [23:51] wth [23:51] phunyguy: that was [23:51] he meant me. [23:51] you woke up a tiger [23:51] relax :P [23:51] lol [23:51] phunyguy. my name is trademarked. [23:51] you stole 3 characters from it [23:51] lol [23:51] anyways, was just wonderin if there was a version that would work on it.. as I understand in most things there is still the issue of the drivers as well [23:51] * Guest32814 grabs popcorn. [23:52] That is way more than 10% :3 [23:52] I encrypted my SSD during installation of Ubuntu. How do I encrypt my storage disks? :/ [23:52] they were saying they may have to tear it down (the os that is) and rebuild it to get all that info.. if they can figure it out === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i [23:52] guess they will cross that bridge when or IF they get there [23:52] I honestly don't care, and it was an off topic indeed. [23:53] hall72: You encrypted the entire drive, what else would you like to encrypt? [23:53] Guest32814: My older storage disks. [23:53] oh [23:53] k [23:53] hmmm [23:54] Good question. [23:54] :o [23:56] hall72: I honestly do not know, however maybe this will help: http://www.howtogeek.com/115955/how-to-quickly-encrypt-removable-storage-devices-with-ubuntu/ [23:56] hall72: also, remember to enable TRIM on your SSD [23:56] Guest32814: Is that easy to do? [23:57] i had windows xp installed -- wanted to dual boot -- it gave me an option to install an lvm (no side by side option) -- windows is now gone. How should I have done this? [23:57] hall72: what exactly? [23:57] Guest32814: Enabling "TRIM" on my SSD. [23:57] Blue1: "Something different" and set partitions manually? [23:58] hall72: No, it's not difficult, google is your friend. [23:58] Google is NOT my friend. Google spies on me. [23:58] :/ [23:58] Guest32814: I tried that initally - but it would not let me resize the parition. [23:58] Google spies on all of us. [23:58] not me [23:58] hall72: Fine. Duckduckgo.com is your friend. [23:58] Guest32814: Better! [23:59] :) [23:59] Ugh. I have so much stuff to do. [23:59] because one cannot simply use a web site without committing to being its friend or not... [23:59] hall72: Duckduckgo over TOR and Hong Kong servers is your friend. Use that to find TRIM command. [23:59] hall72: Remember to connect via VPN. [23:59] Guest32814: That's exactly what I'll do!
