lotuspsychjeAvenger: you can hide left unity bar and use docky or something03:01

kevivMy laptop has 2 hd slots. Can I make some sort of dual boot that way, yet still have each hd an independently bootable system?04:53
kevivDid that even make sense?04:53
daftykinskeviv: yep04:54
kevivdaftykins: do I just specify the second hd's partitions during setup?04:57
daftykinskeviv: what i would do, is pull the disk and install to the second as the only drive in there... then i'd use the laptop's boot menu to switch between.04:58
kevivAh ok04:58
kevivAlso, if I have a live persistent USB, will saving in /home persist, or do I have to save in he casper fs?04:58
daftykinswhere's /home?04:59
daftykinsi don't know much about persistent ones to be honest04:59
kevivOh wait sorry not home04:59
kevivI don't know. I just shit it off05:00
kevivShut05:00
kevivBut it might've been /ubuntu?05:00
daftykinshmm doubt it, but no clue05:01

Aceultra noob here how do i install a hardrive05:02
Ben64Ace: like physically install it?05:02
Acei hooked it up to the sata cables05:03
Aceand power05:03
Acebut windows doesnt recogonize it05:03
Acei wanna put ubuntu on it and run it on another machine05:03
Ben64this is an ubuntu support channel, you should head over to ##windows for windows support05:03
Aceok will do05:04
=== ohm is now known as Guest46445
Aceis it possible though to put ubuntu on a hardrive and then boot a machine from that05:04
Ben64or if you want to install ubuntu on it, put it in the computer you want to install it on, download the iso and write it to a dvd/usb05:04
Aceyou can do it with a usb?05:04
Ben64indeed you can05:04
Acehow many gigs is it?05:05
Acesry if these are stupid questions05:05
Ben64need probably at least 1GB free on the usb to put the installer on it05:05
HikaruBGanyone runnig ubuntu web Server?05:05
HikaruBGhi all05:05
Aceso just download the installer and put it on the usb stick and boot from that?05:05

HikaruBGhow to configure apache web server virtual hosts to be accessed from another computer? to be visible from the network?05:06
Aceben64 the complicated part is that im salvaging hard drives from an old windows machine to install on a different machine with a fried hard disk that i want to put ubuntu on05:07
Aceis #windows on freenode?05:09
Ben64its ##windows and yes.05:09
Ben64but why cant you put the drive into the actual computer where you want it to be?05:09
Acedont i need to wipe it clean and reformat it?05:09

Tim_Milleri know she prefers the front end05:20
daftykinsTim_Miller: are you stuck on something?05:21
Tim_Milleri would keep getting a black screen during different parts of the install and the computer would lock up05:22
daftykinsbad ISO? bad RAM?05:22
dw1why is launchpad.net so picky.. https://pastee.org/d687e https://pastee.org/6evyv - I copied the request directly from Chrome web developer.. every other SSL site works fine. Weird.05:23
Tim_Milleri think it was the graphics card (knock on wood)05:23
daftykinsfor a server? aren't you installed server? :)05:23
daftykins*installing05:23
AR45Would a TITAN Z GFX card perform on linux equally as it would preform on windows? does the same go for cpu?05:24
daftykinsthat's task dependant05:24
daftykinsor rather, application dependant05:25
Tim_Millerno i am not installing server, i wanted to play with the gui version05:25
daftykinsTim_Miller: did you try nomodeset ?05:26
Tim_Millernope05:26
daftykins!nomodeset05:27
ubottuA common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter05:27
dw1AR45: prob too specific and noone knows the answer05:27
dw1AR45: but it likely works fine05:27
Tim_Millerafter pulling and reseating the graphics card and setting the bios to the correct vram size and agp speed it seems to be working05:28
AR45dw1: yes works fine but at its best? what if the developers at intel for the i7 cpu do more driver updates for windows05:28
daftykinsTim_Miller: hah, AGP - nice.05:29

daftykinsTim_Miller: DVD boot? what RAM?05:39
Tim_MillerHDD boot, i think around 400Mb of PC133 LOL05:40
daftykinsoh so you installed already.05:40
daftykins400MB? i'm amazed that booted the live session. that thing is barely good enough for a headless server.05:41
Tim_Milleryep i got it installed, the problems seems to of been the graphics card05:41
Tim_Millerlol, it met the minimum requirements exactly05:42
daftykinsmaybe for Lubuntu05:42
Tim_Milleris there a way to turn off the menu fades05:43
daftykinsyou should try lubuntu and xubuntu instead05:44
daftykinsunity is just not going to happen on that thing05:44
Tim_Millerlol05:44
Tim_Millerso click and wait 5 minutes is not normal05:49
daftykinslol no.05:49
daftykinshonestly, i tell people with old dual core processors and 1GB RAM to consider xubuntu first.05:50
daftykinsUbuntu just isn't that lightweight anymore05:50
Tim_Millerobviously05:50
daftykinsit's probably mostly graphics with your situation right now though05:50
Tim_Millerits been a while since i used it but it used to be you could install it on anything05:50

daftykinsthe Unity desktop being 3D is just too much for that spec05:52
Tim_Millerprobably not05:52
daftykinswipe it and try xubuntu or lubuntu instead :)05:52
daftykinsbut really i have a headless web server with more than twice the RAM05:52
Tim_Millerbut i just got it working :(05:53
Tim_Millerlol05:53
daftykins5 minute delays is working? :)05:54
Tim_Millersure better than looking at a black screen05:54
Tim_Millerit doesnt want to shut down lol05:55
Tim_Millerany preferences on xubuntu or lubuntu05:58
daftykinsTim_Miller: xubuntu will be middle of the road, lubuntu will be the absolute lightest06:01
daftykins(though i find lubuntu sacrifices too much in looks, personally)06:02
Tim_Milleri enable 4x AGP its a bit faster now LOL06:02

theruehey guys, i'm interested in downloading ubuntu and getting more familiar with it.. i'm currently running windows 7.. what do you guys would be the better way for me to install ubuntu? can i set it up so i can use both windows and ubuntu simultaneously? i remembered back in the days there were software i belive called wine or something that allows the user to switch between os06:05
hateball!dualboot06:05
ubottuDual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot06:05
daftykinstherue: if you mean at the same time, look into virtualbox06:07
therueoh i see. so once i installed virtualbox i can just switch between at the same time06:08
theruei still need to dual boot though right?06:08
Ben64no06:08
Ben64virtualbox allows you to have a virtual computer, with any os on it you wish06:09
theruefor someone who is simply learning linux and not yet completely switching from windows to linux06:10
theruevirtualbox would be the way to go then? instead of dual boot... since there's no hassle of logging out and signing on to the other os?06:11
daftykinstherue: correct06:12
therueah ok :)06:12
theruehave you tried other linux distros?06:13
therueway back in the past i've tried slackware 3.506:13
theruethen i think redhat got pretty popular06:13
therueand alot more user friendly06:13
theruethen ubuntu made it even more user friendly for people i believe06:13
theruebut what are the differences between the various distros that are available these days06:14
theruelike opensuse, arch, fedora, redhat, ubuntu, etc06:14
daftykinstherue: plenty to be learnt on distrowatch.com or online in general06:16

sacarlson1fortynine: being the code is open with all the world to see,  there is no easy way to hide a snooper06:40
fortynineim gona give it a try, i just hate unity ;(06:40
sacarlson1fortynine: there are other options than unity like mate that is more like the old windows XP or ubuntu 10.X06:41
__unikI am using LXDE. very good.06:42
__unikunity sucks in every dam nway06:42
__unikdamn06:42
sacarlson1fortynine: there is also Linux Mint that is a directly connected dirivitive of ubuntu that has a defaulted Mate envirnment06:43
vozzAll my sound is playing at about a semitone and a bit higher pitch than it should be. I thought it might be something to do with sample rate, so I worked out 48000/44100 = 1.088 = 8.8%, one semitone is 5.95% difference, two is 12.25% percent, so the ratio is indeed a semitone and a bit different. How do I fix this?06:44
__unikI use 16:9 monitor so... two panels make my screen a gnome ... lol06:44
sacarlson1vozz: what are you using to play the sound with and what format is the sound file?06:45
fortynineoh god, so much input lag ubuntu in VM06:45
vozzsacarlson1: It happens with everything, youtube, tuxguitar through fluidsynth, and vlc playing mp3s06:46
sacarlson1fortynine: ya with the added eye candy that unity has it takes some power to display.  you might find that mate envirnment runs a bit faster as it has less eye candy to run06:47
rommel092079hello. can I ask how to update a package like if I want to update chillispot, what is the command line for updating that?06:48
sacarlson1vozz: I never heard of this happening before.  I assume sound driver then maybe alsa06:48
hip2theehopsudo apt-get install chillispot06:48
sacarlson1vozz: sure it's not hardware.  does it do this on other platform?06:49
Tim_Miller was playing with some settings on my sound card the other day and there was a pitch shift setting06:49
Tim_Millernever knew it was there06:49
sacarlson1hip2theehop: if your interested in chillispot you might be interested in this https://github.com/sacarlson/mini-isp.debpackage06:50
vozzsacarlson1: i fixed it! put default-sample-rate = 44100 in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf and restarted pulseaudio06:50
vozzi wish I'd known that 5 years ago, i remember troubleshooting it with completely different hardware when gnome2 was the default, and never solved it so i gave up on linux ;_;06:51
rommel092079I have error sub-process: /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)06:51
rommel092079it is when I install freeradius06:51
sacarlson1vozz: oh cool, I guess my card just happens to default at the correct number06:52
rommel092079or anything after I update my 9.04 to lucid06:52
vozzit's strange, when I first had the problem i was on a crappy laptop with pretty standard audio hardware, this time i'm on a desktop using a usb pro audio interface06:53
sacarlson1rommel092079: I recall some time back I couldn't get the freeradius package to work,  I had to compile a fresh copy from the developers.  not sure that is still the case as that was over 1 year ago06:53
fortyninemy goodnes, the unity interface is hideous06:54
fortyninethis reminds me of vista06:54
rommel092079sacarlson1: i cant uninstall it too using apt-get remove06:54
rommel092079i get the same error when removing.06:54
sacarlson1rommel092079: I use freeradius and you can see examples of my using it at https://github.com/sacarlson/mini-isp.debpackage06:55
sacarlson1rommel092079: or maybe more detailed uses of freeradius can be found here in my other less updated git https://github.com/sacarlson/mini_isp06:56
Tim_Millerlol i'm wiping unity and installing xubuntu06:57
Tim_Millersee how this works06:57
sacarlson1Tim_Miller: that should run much faster  or lubuntu06:57
Tim_Milleri figured i'd try xubuntu first if its still slow then i will go withe lubuntu06:57
rommel092079sacarlson1: thanks for the links. anyway can I ask something? which software manages the download and upload speed for the users? is it the chillispot or the freeradius or none of them?  I am utilizing easyhotspot as my experiment.06:58
__unikTim_Miller: had you done apt-get update && apt-get upgrade06:59
__unik?06:59
sacarlson1rommel092079: as far as I know it's none of them.  on my system I have two different methods of bw control the new being in the package  git06:59
Tim_Millerno06:59
__unikyou have to do that after installing any new desktop enviroment06:59
Tim_Milleractually i did07:00
Tim_Millerwent to settings then get update07:00
fortynineok, so whats the best replacement desktop envir for ubuntu?07:01
sacarlson1rommel092079: my present release uses this as part of bw control in the package edition https://github.com/sacarlson/mini-isp.debpackage/blob/master/mini-isp-1.0-1.debpackage/usr/share/mini-isp/bwc.sh07:01
sacarlson1rommel092079: my script should easily port into openwrt router to run there also if needed.07:04
fancyfetushey guys07:05
fancyfetushow come when I theme everything, nautilus doesn't change?07:05
fancyfetusI'm changing my close, minimize maximize buttons, but nautilus stays the same.07:05
sacarlson1rommel092079: the new versions of chillispot or it's dirivitives might also add methods to control bw as it's not hard to do07:05
fancyfetusterminal changed.07:05
rommel092079sacalson1: are you familiar with easyhotspot?  I dont know how they control bw but on their gui, when you create an access for user, their is this download and upload rate that you should set also. but I dont know what manages it.07:13
sacarlson1rommel092079: if they added the data to the freeradius link then they probly use it at the router point in easyhotspot.  they are all dirivitives of chillispot.  I"ve tried many of them but presently don't use any of them.  easy just to plug in any access point on my system without the need to flash them07:17
=== Stu| is now known as Stu|[A]
rommel092079ok thanks. can you suggest me any package for bw control that I incorporate ?07:18

ankkBen64 is there a way to make linux detect network devices from beginning and set it?09:46
ankklike fresh linux installation09:46
Ben64could you describe your issue09:46
ankki'm using ubuntu in a virtual machine and i changed network connection type. but i want it to detect that changes automaticly09:47
ankki don't want to install linux again or manually change settings09:47
Ben64you might need to restart for it to take effect09:47
ankk:s09:48
ankkthere must be a tool to do this without reboot09:48
Ben64ankk: when you change the settings of a virtual machine, its like changing hardware09:49
Ben64which you normally can't do while the computer is on09:49

pnglHi everyone. I'm having an issue with my touchpad on Ubuntu 14.04. Some time after reboot, it stops working. I have a trackpoint, so I can still use my laptop, but I need to reboot for the touchpad to work again. I looked at the system logs and saw nothing suspicious. What should I try to investigate?10:01

hydeHi, is there an official way to install Ubuntu as read-only on HD? Ie. basically same as booting live CD from HD partition.10:26
hyde...official, or just documented unofficial, actually10:26
RoryDoes anyone know of any good resources for learning about and implementing the "acct" tool? Google throws up plenty, but I'm sure most is just blogspam10:29
sacarlsonhyde: I've installed ubuntu in this manner that boots the same as you see from a live cd by adding an entry in grub210:31
kailashi guys, if i am developing applications for Ubuntu, how can i submit them, or what is the procedure to follow after development is done?????10:31

kailassacarlson: The reason I ask is, I have to present in class, and state what the development procedure for Ubuntu looks like, so is there a certain procedure, like an end to end description of how changes are incorporated or how ppas are added to the official repos10:36
sacarlsonkailas: oh I'm not sure but my guess is that ppa is involved at one point before anything is certified into the standard repo http://developer.ubuntu.com/publish/apps/other-forms-of-submitting-apps/ppa/10:38
kailassacarlson: perfect, that sounds good, thanks10:39
sacarlsonkailas: many times there will be mirrors of github and ppa and branches that never get published direct10:39
kailassacarlson: ok10:40
sacarlsonkailas: I think I've found what you are looking for and it does involve ppa in the steps as seen here http://developer.ubuntu.com/publish/scope/application-states/10:52

Ben64the default ubuntu repositories contain a huge amount of software, probably everything that you could need. PPAs add unnecessary complexity and usually problems11:26

And I'm not sure if it includes a pseudo-terminal emulation like telnetd. Curses has strange glitches if its stdout is connected to a pipe/socket, and not to a terminal.11:58

squintyanuvrat:  no expert on this topic but you many want to google for   mtpfs, android and see if your phone is set to mtp (in your phone settings)15:21
Alphakaremmnr_, it's a bug but as stated on the page you shared, seems like it's a bug, future updates will hopefully fix it. in the meantime you can use terminal or the method mentioned in the link.15:21
mnr_Alphakarem:  ok i wanna install vlc through terminal... what would be the code for ubuntu repo15:23
mnr_Alphakarem: donta wanna do it via ppa15:23
squintymnr_: he already said  <Alphakarem> sudo apt-get install vlc15:24
mnr_squinty: ok15:24
squintymnr_:  if you haven't updated recently then you might also want to run  sudo apt-get update  first before  sudo apt-get install vlc15:25
mnr_squinty: yea  i just updated 10 mins ago15:25

OerHeksjust keep it with our repos15:29
mnr_OerHeks:  i just did sudo apt-get install vlc .... is that ok?15:29
AlphakaremOerHeks, he was looking for the syntax of the command this is a syntax of how to get from a repo15:30
Alphakaremmnr_, yes that ok and perfectly fine because you are using ubuntu's offical repos15:31
OerHeksmnr_, that is fine15:31

squintymnr_:  point is you shouldn't be encountering such problems after a fresh install ... period.  yes try switching servers after purging your vlc install and then try installing again17:02
geniinuntwo: Most likely you have some PPA which installed a newer version17:02
nuntwogenii: no i dont. this is a clean setup which was just installed17:03
nuntwoi did the dist-upgrade and i tried several mirrors17:03
nuntwothe problem persists17:03
mnr_squinty:  yeah... that skkks...  even nothing installed just vlc is the single programme17:03
geniinuntwo: Have you done first: (sudo) apt-get update   ...to get the lists current?17:03
nuntwoyes17:03
geniinuntwo: Please pastebin contents of your sources.list and result of cat /etc/issue17:05
ActionParsnipmnr_: is there no scope to use a different player, like mplayer17:05
nuntwogenii: i need to know where to report my problem. i am not a clueless beginner17:06
mnr_ActionParsnip:  yes i can... but point is im having some problem that should not happen after fresh install ... even install button is not enable in software center17:06
geniinuntwo: If it's actually a bug, it would be with ubuntu-bug <packagename> and it will go to bugs.launchpad.net17:06
ActionParsnipmnr_: then report a bug, like I said earlier. You can start this process with:    ubuntu-bug vlc17:07
mnr_ActionParsnip: what would be the code for skype ' sudo apt-get install skype'?17:08
nuntwogenii: this is not a bug related to a package. it is related to the package archive as it seems17:08
mnr_ActionParsnip:  even i need to install virtual box17:08
geniinuntwo: Since it comes when you try to install for instance audacious, it would be against that package.17:08
geniinuntwo: If it needs to be refiled under some other category, whoever reviews the bug after you report it will do that.17:09
nuntwook, thanks17:09
Avengeri want to learn about virtual machines17:11
lotuspsychje!vm | Avenger17:12
ubottuAvenger: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications17:12
ActionParsnipmnr_: you need the partner repo enabled to install skype17:12
ActionParsnipmnr_: virtualbox is in the repos17:12
Avengervirtual machines are used to run other programs like those for windows right?17:14

jimmy51v_thanks19:26
Jordan_Ujimmy51v_: I would recommend almost never echoing y, and only slightly less rarely using --force-yes. The nice thing about a command having a -y option is that you know that the developer thought about what might happen in an unattended situation, and tried to avoid the possibility of -y doing really bad things. That is not true of --force-yes (which implies that the developer didn't think it was a good idea to just ...19:27
Jordan_U... blindly always choose yes) and is also not true of echoing y, where the developer didn't plan for it at all.19:27

alexglI need to figure out a way to create and deploy images of windows 7 drives and I would like to use an ubuntu virtual machine as the server. VM issues aside, so far trying to setup clonezilla on 14.04 lts is just plain old agravating as the packages do not mach instructions I can find. Has anyone had success with this combo ubuntu 14.04 lts and clonezilla drbl for win7?20:16

alexglarubi: the live clonezilla cd?20:18
arubiover pxe-tftp from hiren's bootcd20:18
arubiI clonezilla is a major part of drbl so.. but I didn't try running that20:19
arubi(sorry for the typos, I'm not on my native keyboard)20:20
alexglarubi: that's part of the problem, when configuring drbl on 14.04 it says i'm missing a bunch of packages20:20
arubilike which?20:20
JarliAnyone out there familiar with Gnome Nanny?20:21
alexglarubi: mkswap-uuid drbl-chntpw mkpxeinitrd-net freedos20:21
arubiyou should probably run some type of dhcp server and tftp server20:22
arubialexgl, is the ubuntu setup only there to host the win7 image? maybe use the drbl image and that's it?20:23
alexglarubi you don't need a full ubuntu server running drbl?20:24
alexglarubi could you point me to a link where i can see how to set it up?20:24

alexglJordan_U arubi i am actually a bit stuck at Server Setup for clients step on that last link I sent20:33
alexglJordan_U arubi I thought I added it with a command, it was last week...20:33
Jordan_Ualexgl: You thought you added what with a command? The instructions about editing your sources.list are only for 6+ year old versions of Ubuntu, so you really shouldn't have followed them.20:35
alexglJordan_U: I did notice that so I wasn't able to follow that step20:35
arubialexgl, on that live image, two scripts are on the desktop. one for setting up drbl (for pxe booting iso's or for thin clients), and the other for setting up a clonezilla server. both pretty much automatic20:35
Jordan_Ualexgl: Good. Did you run "sudo apt-get install drbl" to install drbl?20:36
alexglJordan_U: i found it in the Ubuntu Software Center and installed it through that20:37
alexglJordan_U: it says drbl is already the newest version.20:38

alexglJordan_U arubi so is 14.04 LTS just too new for drbl?20:53
alexglon drbl page they say instructions work for 14.04 but... they don't seem to20:53
bekksalexgl: They dont see to what? :)20:54
alexglbekks: at the bottom of this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8606249/ and this http://paste.ubuntu.com/8606374/20:55
arubialexgl, I think you might not have all the needed repositories, take a look at this : http://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl/pool/drbl/stable/20:56
arubiall those missing packages are found there20:56
miss_sunshined20:58
miss_sunshinestr(round(1,7)) in Python, then how can I make it return 1,70?20:58
trismmiss_sunshine: round(1, 7) would round the number 1 to 7 digits, which is still 1, also #python is more appropriate to these sorts of questions21:01
alexglarubi: how would i ad them to sources?21:03
bekksalexgl: Described here: http://drbl.sourceforge.net/installation/02-install-required-packages.php21:04
bekksalexgl: As you can see the URL for the packages is the same for 12.04 to 13.10, so a quick look at the URL content should reveal that they will work on 14.04 as well.21:05
JCTwhat's that unity3d webplayer fork being called on ubuntu again? i sitalled it and forgot it's name, but i'm running xubuntu and chromium, and the unity3d web games won't launch even though i installed it21:08
JCTit uses wine and i have wine already21:09
JCTdo i have to start a program for it to work?21:09
trismJCT: you should check if it works in firefox, it is probably an NPAPI plugin and so won't work in chrome/chromium anymore21:09
arubialexgl, I can't find that repo's gpg key, but technically you'd need to create a file "drbl.list" in "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/", and in it paste the line "deb http://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl/ drbl stable"21:09
JCTyea, i noticed chromeapps that use NPAPI don't work almost at all...21:10
JCTokbai21:10
arubialexgl, then `sudo apt-get update`, and those packages should be found next time. if they're compatible with 14.04, I can't really tell...21:10
MagicSpudhello why Terminal is not among the options to open a script in shell? using ubuntu 14.04 hre21:11
MagicSpudand how could I bring it up21:12
alexglarubi bekks ok i got it to pull them from drbl repository, i think21:13
OerHeksJCT go for PPAPI  versions, like pepperflash21:13
arubialexgl, you can try running `apt-cache policy <package-name>` for each of the packages that were not found. if you're getting a sane output out of that, then you have a source for those packages.21:14

tgm4883MagicSpud: I believe that is incorrect. You have a ~/.wine/ folder that contains all of your windows programs and stuff. You would need to install Wine after the upgrade, but it should automatically see everything you previously installed22:12

zenman11_bean1020: tried killdisk - couldn't do it either. i'm almost convinced now that this drive is still encrypted. i'm guessing my best play is the Live USB route then22:39
zenman11_when I do get that going, squinty, ObrienDave, how can I erase/decrypt if it ever becomes visible again?22:39
zenman11_these were the commands i ran previously: http://www.logilab.org/blogentry/2915522:40
ObrienDavezenman11_, kill the partition, make new one22:40
bean1020ObrienDave, I am using xchat, and i don't see it in the settings22:40
bean1020zenman11_, agreed, kill the partition22:40
ObrienDavebean1020, right click channel, settings, hide22:40

zenman11_ohhh, squinty, ObrienDave - i just booted the drive back up in the old machine...no idea why it let me boot. now is there a way to decrypt this drive from within itself?22:58
zenman11_interestingly when it booted this time it didn't report the encrypted swap being mounted, it mounted the new swap i made up in /dev/sda523:00

Avenger_Hiw do i change my computers hostname?23:28
Bashing-omAvenger_: edit " /etc/hosts , /etc/hostname " .23:30
Avenger_Bashing-om : do i type that in terminal?23:30
zenman11_anyone know why i can't wipe this drive that had ubuntu server 12.04 lts installed on it?23:31
Bashing-omAvenger_: no will have to activate a text editor with the privileges to edit a system file.23:31
Avenger_Bashing-om : i am too new to try this. that sounds too scarry and my dad said not to listen.23:32
Avenger_thank you very much for the responce though friend.23:32
_temp_hi, i'm trying to follow steps from a bug report, but I don't know how to do the following steps23:34
_temp_4. loaded firmware version 22.24.8.0 op_mode iwlmvm23:34
_temp_5. linux-firmware 1.127.723:34
_temp_how do I get a specific version of firmware and how do I check if ti's loaded23:34
celrocAvenger_: Typing "gksu gedit /etc/hostname" in a terminal without the quotes and pressing enter, then inputting your password at the prompt and pressing enter again should open it in a GUI editor with proper privileges23:34
_temp_(and finally what does op_mode iwlmvm" mean23:34
Avenger_celroc : i will try that.23:35
Avenger_celroc : i think you are a nice man. thank you very much for being friendly.23:35
celrocAvenger_: Thanks, I give credit to Bashing-om for listing where the files were located, too.  I sort of springboarded off of his response, so to speak23:36
zykotick9!hostname | Avenger_23:36
ubottuAvenger_: 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.23:36
zykotick9Avenger_: careful, i think celroc's suggestion, by itself, will break sudo on your system!23:36
celroczykotick9: It will?  I'm sorry, I didn't hear about that23:37
Avenger_celroc : (gedit:3800): Gtk-WARNING **: Calling Inhibit failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files23:37
Avenger_i tried to name is Tobasco and press save23:37
celrocAvenger_: Um, I might have messed up, apparently.  I was not aware of the issue zykotick9 brought up.23:38
Avenger_zykotick9 : i have done something terriable!23:38

unopasteAvenger_ you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted23:40
celrocAvenger_: It looks like sudo is still working23:41
Avenger_celroc what is sudo?23:42
ObrienDaveAvenger_, Super User DO23:42
celrocAvenger_: It is a tool commonly used in the linux command-line to run things as the root ("super") user23:42
Avenger_i wanted to change my host name to TobascoSauce23:43
celrocObrienDave: I may be wrong, but I believe it is actually "Switch User Do" as you can actually use sudo to run commands in accounts other than the root, too.  Root is just the default :-)23:43
zykotick9ObrienDave: actually "switch user" i believe...23:43
kaddibleh23:45
kadditgm4883: did everything that's in that list.. still having problems23:45
celrocAvenger_: If you open a new terminal, does it list the hostname you typed in that file earlier?23:46
Bashing-omAvenger_: MY file -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8607982/ , see where " 1404mini", change in your file to " TobascoSauce " -> gksudo gedit /etc/host <- ; next is to change "/etc/hostname" .23:46
Avenger_Bashing-om : what file do i open on my computer sir?23:48
celrocAvenger_: Try "gksu gedit /etc/hosts" to get the file he lists23:49
Bashing-omAvenger_: In terminal do:  -> gksudo gedit /etc/host <- opens the file for editing, make the edit and save the file.23:50
Avenger_okay i pressed save23:51
Avenger_now exit the editor?23:51
bellawhen updating ubuntu, the computer froze and now the computer is extremely slow and the font on the desktop changes and then changes back to the original font, its weird. also my external usb drives dont work so i cant backup files. please help23:51
Avengerbashing-om : my host name did not change23:52
Bashing-omAvenger: Well, did you 'save' the file after making the edit ( changing whatever was in that field to TobascoSauce ) ?  - easy does it !23:53
squid22hello23:53
zenman11_can anyone help me get ubuntu off a hard drive so i can install windows on it?23:54
AvengerBashing-om yes sir i changed it to tobascosauce and clicked save. terminal still says a big host name from before23:54
squid22@zenman11: all you have to do is format the hard drive23:54
Avengeri like tobascosauce and i hope i can name my computer it.23:54
celrocAvenger: You may need to open a new terminal to see the change in hostname23:54
Avengercelroc : i did that too my friendship and it still says brandon-HP-Pavilion-TS-Sleekbook-14:~$23:55
Avengermy name is brandon23:55
Bashing-omAvenger: I said above, we must edit 2 files .. right ? .. so next is -> gksudo gedit /etc/hostname <- .. where the old name was, change to "TobascoSauce", save the file and exit. Log off and back on to see the change.23:55
OerHeksyou need to logout/login to let it take effect23:56
Avengerokay friends i will try.23:56
bellawhen updating ubuntu, the computer froze and now the computer is extremely slow and the font on the desktop changes and then changes back to the original font, its weird. also my external usb drives dont work so i cant backup files. please help23:57
celrocbella: Sorry, I don't know a direct fix.  If you can open a terminal, try "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" to run the updater, maybe it will help fix whatever broke23:58
squid22bella: you can also try "sudo apt-get -f install"23:59
