xubuntu_userfreedomrun, my problem is only with the authentication. I set correctly the proxy server14:38
xubuntu_user"407  Proxy Authentication Required"14:40
xubuntu_userhow can i input user and password of the proxy server? i've written it on  /etc/environment, but it seems to be uncorrectly14:42
koegsxubuntu_user: did you use "export http_proxy=http://USER:PASSWORD@SERVER-IP_ODER_NAME:PORT"?14:44
xubuntu_userin the same file? i write another file, located at /etc/apt/apt.conf14:49
xubuntu_userAcquire::http::proxy "http://proxy.example.com:8080/"; with this text14:50
koegsxubuntu_user: there is no user :D14:53
xubuntu_userkoegs, i need to write user and pass at etc/apt/apt.conf ?14:55
xubuntu_useror export in /etc/environment before  http_proxy=http://USER:PASSWORD@SERVER-IP_ODER_NAME:PORT"?14:56
koegsboth14:58
xubuntu_userso "Acquire::http::proxy=http://USER:PASSWORD@SERVER-IP:port" ?14:59
koegsAcquire::http::proxy "http://[user]:[password]@[proxy]:[port]";15:02
xubuntu_userok thanks :) i'll reboot now, so i can see if it's setted correctly. Thanks again :)15:05
xubuntu_userkoegs, last quest: :315:31
xubuntu_userE: syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf:1: characters extra at the end of the file15:32
holsteinxubuntu_user: i would look at that file, and see the syntax15:33
holsteinhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/88976/407-proxy-authentication-required15:34
xubuntu_userthis is the text Acquire::http::proxy "http://922496:nkby7f9K@10.250.54.250:3128"15:34
holstein"Acquire::http::Proxy "http://username:password@proxyhost:port/";"15:34
holsteinxubuntu_user: i already see differences..15:34
xubuntu_useryes, i'll try15:34
holsteinxubuntu_user: you'll just have to match the syntax *exactly* and keep trying til you get it.. this is specific to your setup15:35
xubuntu29fHi there , can anyoine help me with a problem with my Ubunto 12.4.4 system ?15:36
xubuntu29fI cannot start the session , it is always displaying a message that "no irq handler for vector ïrq-115:37
xubuntu_userok holstein, thank you, i'll reboot and try again15:38
holsteinxubuntu_user: 12.04.4? xubuntu?15:38
xubuntu29fno matter what i do , restart the system , enter my details , sudo apt-get update , it installs the updates but hangs in the black window with that message at the bottom15:38
xubuntu29fYes Holstein , 12.4.415:38
xubuntu_user14.04, xubuntu15:38
xubuntu29fno , i have 12.0415:38
holsteinxubuntu_user: lets break these up, please.. are you runinng 12.04.4 xubuntu?15:38
xubuntu29fyes i am15:38
holsteinxubuntu_user: you cant login to the graphical environment?15:39
holsteinxubuntu29f: ^^ you cant login to the graphical environment?15:40
xubuntu29fi can login using my username and password , and then i only get the normal user@user-desktop; window to enter anu command15:40
xubuntu29fi am never able to get the Desktop15:40
holsteinxubuntu29f: you can try logging is as a guest user, or a new user.. if you are able to login, then the username and password are good. and if other users can start the desktop, then the largers system is likely not broken..15:41
holsteinxubuntu29f: i would then, start renaming or moving the hidden user .config files, and see if i can get to the desktop.. and *then* address the update issue..15:41
xubuntu29fno holstein , i am the only user of that machine15:42
holsteinxubuntu29f: i understand that.. i am specifically referencing user accounts.. not physical actual users15:43
holsteinxubuntu29f: please try logging is as the guest user, or *create* a test user.. if you can login as those users, then, as i stated, you likely *dont* have a problem with the system.. but, with your current user account's configuration files15:44
xubuntu29fhow could i do that ? When i start the computer it jumps automatically to the login information , i enter username and password , it accepts , but then keeps the black screen just with the user@user-desktop; waitying for something15:44
xubuntu29fHolstein : how can i then create a guest user ? To try to login with ?15:45
holsteinxubuntu29f: you mean, you hit the power button? and you are *not* presented with the graphical greeter? but, you are presented with a text console only?15:45
holsteinxubuntu29f: the guest user is *already* there.. but, i am asking additionaly questions to determine details..15:46
xubuntu29fi only get the screen with the Ubunto logo , and get imediately after the text console only15:46
holsteinxubuntu29f: what caused this breakage?15:47
xubuntu29fso only the text console is displayed , nothing else15:47
holsteinxubuntu29f: what did you do before this happened? has it always been this way? what occured right before you started seeing only the text console at boot? or did it do that after fresh install?15:48
xubuntu29fHolstein : it happened some months ago and since then i never tried again , i believe i got an invitation to update from 10.4 to 12.4 and since then it no longer works15:49
holsteinxubuntu29f: i would suggest backup and fresh install of 14.04.. i would consider this the path of least resistance for you15:49
holsteinbest case, we waste a lot of energy repairing 12.04 while its nearing EOL15:50
xangua12.04 still has 2 and a half years of support ;)15:50
xubuntu29fand to do that i need an instalation CD right ?15:51
holsteinxangua: not xubuntu.. but, the 12.04 repos will be up, yes15:52
holsteinxfce/xubuntu only provides 3 years.. so, 6 more months of official support.. that plus the fact that this is an older install and xubuntu29f is not sure what has cause what specific issues makes me think reinstall of 14.04 is the best solution..15:53
xubuntu29fi mean i don't have any data in that machine , so i could fresh install the system , can you please guide me on how to do it ?15:54
holstein!install15:54
ubottuUbuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate15:54
xubuntu29fyou probably realized already , i am a rooker with Linux :(15:54
holsteinxubuntu29f: i would get the 14.04 live installation media, and "try" the desktop15:54
holsteini do this to make sure all the hardware components support linux well15:55
xubuntu29fi will check it and will let you know , many thanks for now15:55
xubuntu29fHolstein , can i fresh install 14.04 from the text console ( since i don't have the desktop , i don"t have a way to jump out from the text console ) or can i download the 14.04 to a USB stick on this computer i am now ( XP ) and install it in the Linux machine ?16:03
holsteinxubuntu29f: the link i gave should provide instructions about how to create the live USB stick you are asking about making from a windows machine16:04
holsteinxubuntu29f: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows for example16:05
xubuntu29fmany thanks :)16:05
FatSpitfirehi guys :)16:27
Anom01yhi, I have just purchased a brand new Toshiba Laptop, and I am attempting to run the live-CD of Xubuntu on it.18:10
Anom01yThe CD appears to start working as I see the Xubuntu logo and the scrolling progress bar as it is booting / loading18:11
Anom01ybut then it drops me straight into a command line prompt with no GUI / interface18:11
GridCube!uefi | Anom01y18:12
ubottuAnom01y: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI18:12
GridCubebooting from non-uefi partitions, like usb or cds, its considered a legacy boot and you have to enable that on the uefi settings18:12
Anom01yGridCube, thanks for your help,18:15
Anom01ythe CD is booting18:15
GridCube:)18:15
Anom01yas I am on the live CD, however, I believe that the radeon graphics driver is preventing the XFCE  UI  from loading as I am stuck here in the command line18:15
Anom01y(live-CD    trying Xubuntu before installing)18:16
Anom01ybrings me to the linux command line18:16
GridCubehaven't had that problem on a long while18:16
GridCubeare you sure you got the iso correctly?18:16
Anom01yyes18:16
GridCube!md5 | Anom01y18:17
ubottuAnom01y: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows18:17
Anom01yI will try the 32 bit version that I have downloaded and see if that works18:17
Anom01yGridCube, I am using Xubuntu 12.04  by the way.18:17
Anom01yshould I maybe try 14.04 ?18:17
GridCubeyes18:17
GridCube12.04 is almost out of support18:18
Anom01yok18:18
Anom01yI thought it was long term support until 2018 or something18:18
GridCubethats mainbuntu18:18
GridCubexubutnu only 3 years18:18
Anom01y201718:19
Anom01yok18:19
Anom01yalright let me try 14.0418:19
GridCubefor 14.0418:19
GridCubebut still, regular upgrades are not as bad as they where back in the days18:19
GridCube:)18:19
Anom01yyeah my PC GridCube is still running 12.0418:21
Anom01ymy problem is that I have it so customized that I am worried about upgrading18:21
Anom01yit works 100% perfectly the way it is18:22
GridCube:) good then18:22
Anom01yyes but time is running out for support for it18:22
Anom01ywhat is the end of support date for Xubuntu 12.04 ?18:23
PiciAnom01y: 201718:26
GridCube?18:26
GridCubeno18:26
ElderDryasAnom01y: If you have a heavily customized install of 12.04 and are afraid of upgrading, then I'd sit down with paper/pencil and document just what you have done to customize the install.  If there are customized config files (and such) you can just save them off to a USB stick and drop them in on the new (14.04) install.18:26
PiciGridCube: sorry, you're right.18:26
GridCubeAnom01y, support for 12.04 ends in 15.04, by then you should have had to upgrade to 14.04 at least, 14.04 has support until 17.04, where 16.04 will be the current LTS18:29
GridCubeXD its really weird thinking that far into the future18:30
Anom01yis there a flavour of Linux that does not have upgrades as much as Xubuntu or Ubuntu ?18:31
GridCubeAnom01y, you don't need to upgrade if you don't want, but i guess that debian has a low upgrade sequence18:32
Anom01yGridCube, ok what if I do not upgrade, then no more updates ?18:33
GridCubeor slackware, or any heavily focused on servers production where uptime is relevant18:33
rwwDebian releases come out about every two years, same as Ubuntu18:33
rwwit's just less scheduled18:33
GridCubeAnom01y, eventually uou stop recieving updates and your system lags away from current technology, you are more open to attacks because your software is old and any security issue will not be adressed18:33
GridCubefor machines that dont connect to the internet, you very rarely ever need to upgrade18:34
Anom01yalright I guess I will just have to upgrade eventually18:34
GridCubechange is scary, believe me, i know, but once you make changing to be a thing you do, then not changing is scary P:18:35
Anom01yso I have until 2015 April to upgrade my Desktop18:35
Anom01ybummer18:35
GridCubeain't that bad18:36
GridCubejust backup your sensitive data as you should regularly do and go with it, you will have a chance to reset your desktop, make it pretty again18:36
Anom01yyeah my problem is this customized installation of Compiz Fusion that is tied in with XFCE18:36
GridCubewell, you can forget about that18:37
GridCubecompiz is dead18:37
Anom01yI am running 0.8.818:37
Anom01yit is working perfect18:37
Anom01yand I love it18:37
GridCubewell, good luck with that then :)18:37
Anom01yheh thanks18:37
GridCubeP: we dont provide support on compiz settings in this channel in general basis because its a real pain to make it work18:38
Anom01yyes I understand that18:39
Anom01yI am pretty sure I can re-install it after I upgrade18:39
Anom01yGridCube, if I use the "upgrade" feature built in with 12.04, perhaps that will allow me to upgrade without re-installing all of my software ?18:40
GridCubeit should if you dont have any ppa or external software18:41
Anom01yok cool18:41
GridCubeyou are still recommended to save all your sensitive data before doing anything, its better to have the it and not need it than need it and not having it18:42

xnoxpleia2: that's the root cause for no desktop baground - xsettingsd is defunct.19:58
xnoxalternative is to ship something like feh on xubuntu image and make that paint the background instead.19:58
