| gac | i'm assuming there's a driver as that BT chipset is included in several certified laptops - potentially an rfkill issue, or something to do with the hardware switch. that'd be my guess, but it's just a guess | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| [Saint_] | ditched grub2 for grub, grub2 install errors out. Reboot required, wish me luck. | 00:00 |
| lagbox | the results i am seeing seem to imply you need to build the driver | 00:00 |
| Guest28273 | Curious I am wondering what is the oldest version of linux that has a firefox browser that supports the current website technology I am using this old lucid version 10 ish and this computer is 512 MB , AMD Athlon XP 1500+ processor , with 80 GB HD | 00:00 |
| lagbox | Guest28273, well you would have to look into firefox and find when they implemented html5 | 00:01 |
| lonewulf85 | lagbox, any ideas or sites that I can use as a reference? | 00:01 |
| Guest28273 | The browser I am trying to get to work with the newest web sites the only way to do this is install a new version of ubuntu but I don''t want to install a to new version that would run to slow for this slow computer already | 00:01 |
| Guest28273 | No , I just want to know what ubuntus repo support what firefox versions quickly without have to look it up | 00:02 |
| lagbox | lonewulf i just googled "ubuntu Ralink corp. RT3290 Bluetooth" | 00:02 |
| bazhang | !info firefox | 00:02 |
| ubottu | firefox (source: firefox): Safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 33.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.10.1 (utopic), package size 36030 kB, installed size 87366 kB | 00:02 |
| gac | Guest28273: packages.ubuntu.com | 00:02 |
| bazhang | Guest28273, ^ | 00:02 |
| lonewulf85 | lagbox, I did and got an ubuntu forms site http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2115570.html should that work? | 00:02 |
| OerHeks | Guest28273, the bottleneck is your videocard, ram and cpu, not an older firefox | 00:02 |
| OerHeks | Guest28273, get Xubuntu for such ancient hardware | 00:03 |
| kojakzito | k1l: ok now I removed everything and was able to move forward. Now im getting this (After sudo apt-get install ... apache2-prefork-dev): | 00:03 |
| kojakzito | The following packages have unmet dependencies: apache2-prefork-dev : Depends: libaprutil1-dev but it is not going to be installed | 00:03 |
| lagbox | idk i suppose its worth a try | 00:03 |
| gac | kojakzito: try installing the lib manually - it could be that the 12.04 version can't be installed because it conflicts with the 13.10 software you've probably got on your system now due to your sources.list mishap | 00:04 |
| Ben64 | kojakzito: yeah, looks like a broken system to me. you should remember this for future reference, and install 14.04 | 00:04 |
| gac | kojakzito: at this point, if you need this box to be reliable, it wouldn't be a terrible idea to just rebuild it | 00:04 |
| [Saint_] | Just wanted to come back and say thank you to those who attempted to assist me through this | 00:07 |
| Guest28273 | forget it normally I have to figure it out anyway | 00:07 |
| [Saint_] | I have it "fixed" | 00:07 |
| [Saint_] | Swapping out grub2 for grub "Just Worked(TM)" | 00:07 |
| kojakzito | yeah | 00:08 |
| kojakzito | ill just go ahead and reinstall the system | 00:09 |
| kojakzito | brb! | 00:09 |
| lagbox | lol | 00:12 |
| lonewulf85 | lagbox, I tried to make the drive and still no luck | 00:12 |
| lagbox | http://askubuntu.com/questions/324115/ralink-bluetooth-not-working-in-ubuntu-13-04 that is the one i was reading | 00:12 |
| lagbox | i would imagine that there may be a driver already and that driver needs to be blacklisted | 00:13 |
| lonewulf85 | lagbox, I will give that a shot | 00:13 |
| lagbox | but im just kinda guessing my friend | 00:13 |
| lagbox | i haven't had a need for my bluetooth so i haven't tried to enable it yet | 00:13 |
| dj | i am having problems setting up OpenVPN on my system. I have downloaded the pkg and ran command dpkg -i openvpn-as-2.0.10-Ubuntu14.i386.deb and it gives me dpkg: error processing archive openvpn-as-2.0.10-Ubuntu14.i386.deb (--install): cannot access archive: No such file or directory. How do I install the package | 00:14 |
| Ben64 | dj: why are you using the deb | 00:14 |
| BlackDalek | Is there any way to get the people in the #libreoffice channel to become active? They are always asleep ;) | 00:14 |
| dj | Ben64: I downloaded it from the openvpn website. I was trying to follow their instructions | 00:15 |
| lonewulf85 | lagbox, I want to transfer files from my pc to my tablet with out the usb cable. | 00:15 |
| Ben64 | dj: it is in the ubuntu repositories, use that. Ubuntu Software Center or open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install openvpn" | 00:15 |
| lagbox | well that is a good use for it :) | 00:15 |
| lonewulf85 | lagbox. lol yeah i thought so | 00:15 |
| lagbox | actually my bluetooth used to be enabled .. atm in 14.10 it isn't even accesible | 00:15 |
| lonewulf85 | lagbox, nice | 00:16 |
| BlackDalek | Does anyone in here know anything about working with video clips in Libreoffice Impress? | 00:16 |
| Buzhang | !ops | bazhang | 00:17 |
| dj | Ben64: Thank you. I got it from the repository now, but how do I access it? i am fairly new to Linux | 00:17 |
| lonewulf85 | BlackDalek, I have not even tried but thumbs up why not use dalekcon | 00:17 |
| lagbox | okie dokie then | 00:18 |
| Ben64 | dj: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN | 00:18 |
| dj | Ben64: Thank you for your help | 00:18 |
| BlackDalek | I have a problem with Impress where I inserted a video clip into a slide, but then I needed to edit the video clip, and when I re-inserted the NEW video clip, the old (I assume cached) version of the clip is inserted instead. It just refuses to update to the current version of the video clip. :( | 00:20 |
| Guest28273 | firefox build 33.0 for ubuntu 14 ish and precises 12 ish has the same version of firefox about , lucid update has say firefox 20.0 so I big leap I would say either uses 13 or 14 don't know how much performance hinderness is between 13 to 14 but not sure I even care to look it up | 00:20 |
| BlackDalek | I am hoping someone knows how to or if it is possible to delete Libreoffice Impress' cache for video files (if such a thing exists). | 00:21 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: 13.04 and 13.10 are both out of support | 00:24 |
| FilthyMacNasty | then I guess I should do something about my dapper mail server | 00:24 |
| [Saint_] | Sooooo - the path back to sanity was kinda weird. | 00:25 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: you should install either 12.04 or 14.04, 12.04 is supported until 2017, which hopefully you can get a better computer by then, or if not, 14.04 is supported until 2019 :D | 00:25 |
| [Saint_] | uninstall grub; purge the excess kernels; reinstall grub; update grub; install grub2, update grub | 00:26 |
| [Saint_] | Now to see if I can replicate that success on a real machine. | 00:26 |
| Ben64 | [Saint_]: got grub and grub2 installed? doesn't sound like a good idea | 00:26 |
| [Saint_] | Ben64: no...that's impossible. | 00:26 |
| Ben64 | that is what you said | 00:26 |
| [Saint_] | It is, but one should know that grub2 will remove grub. | 00:27 |
| Ben64 | who knows man, you could get around that | 00:27 |
| Guest28273 | O wait firefox and html5 not even sure they implemented the complete standards for it but most of it so I guess the equation is the browser that will last the longest for new site in the future so I don't have to upgrade .... hmmm maybe just uses/try ubuntu 14 and forget everything else it is for another computer guy but he only really uses the browser sometimes so I could go with a new distro but why complicate things | 00:27 |
| [Saint_] | You actually can't...but, whatever. | 00:28 |
| lagbox | no single version of a browser will be current | 00:28 |
| lagbox | they are constantly updating | 00:28 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: you should really use the whole version. there is no "ubuntu 14" there is 14.04 and 14.10 | 00:28 |
| [Saint_] | grub(2) has quite some protection from stupidity, for exactly this reason. | 00:28 |
| kojakzito | just re-installed the box, 12.04 LTS | 00:28 |
| [Saint_] | Its not possible to have both installed unless you do some _extreme_ manual fuckery. | 00:28 |
| Ben64 | kojakzito: why not 14.04? | 00:29 |
| Ben64 | [Saint_]: watch the language here | 00:29 |
| Guest28273 | well I would like an operating system of linux that supports the 99.999% of websites without having to reinstall another OS in a couple of years or do updates every 3 to 6 months | 00:29 |
| kojakzito | Ben64: I'm forced to use this one. | 00:29 |
| kojakzito | i' d choose 14.04 no questions | 00:29 |
| lagbox | you can't | 00:29 |
| lagbox | as websites are built using newer technologies that 99% number will become impossible | 00:29 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: i've explained this already. 12.04 is supported until 2017, 14.04 until 2019. pick one | 00:30 |
| jayar | anyone use/recommend Artillery? | 00:30 |
| Guest28273 | Plus I need new internet capablities on a limited hardware old machine so if not ubuntu what other linux one would you recommend that would run fast and not be like tinylinux or some other archic hard to uses linux for the nonlinux user... for me i don't have any problem with any version ... not for me and tell me something I don't know | 00:31 |
| [Saint_] | With the slow and broken adoption of HTTP2 draft, it'll be impossible to obtain that 99.999% number for a LOOOOOOOOOOONG time. | 00:31 |
| [Saint_] | The Internet is always, constantly, being broken. | 00:31 |
| lagbox | i would imagine there is some backporting going on in those versions | 00:31 |
| daftykins | Guest28273: i'm a little lost as to why you believe an OS is holding back websites | 00:31 |
| [Saint_] | Always has been, always will be. | 00:31 |
| OerHeks | jayar that would be more a backtrack or kali question | 00:32 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: this is an ubuntu support channel, this is not the place to get distro recommendations | 00:32 |
| Guest28273 | Ok for the major sites like yahoo , google , sports fantasy football ,...etc sites | 00:32 |
| lagbox | hehe | 00:32 |
| lagbox | google is the site that uses bleeding edge | 00:32 |
| [Saint_] | I was just going to say. | 00:32 |
| lagbox | atleast for parts of it | 00:32 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: for the 42nd time, 12.04 is supported until 2017, 14.04 is supported until 2019. pick one of them, or pick another distro. stop asking the same question over and over | 00:32 |
| [Saint_] | Google is _constantly_ failing to correctly apply SSL2/TLS | 00:33 |
| [Saint_] | As is Mozilla, rather hilariously. | 00:33 |
| lagbox | even facebook is a super heavy demand on your browser | 00:33 |
| Guest28273 | because the OS only can have certain versions of firefox install only updates so high until it get ridiculous to install stuff plugins break and all kind of other shit that would be a waste of time for me to even try to figure out how to fix | 00:33 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: for the 42nd time, 12.04 is supported until 2017, 14.04 is supported until 2019. pick one of them, or pick another distro. stop asking the same question over and over | 00:33 |
| [Saint_] | lagbox: that's mainly because its trying to suck your history out of every other site you've got an active session cookie for. ;p | 00:33 |
| lagbox | hehe | 00:34 |
| lagbox | i would imagine the older versions are getting some backporting | 00:34 |
| [Saint_] | said user seems to be missing the point of what LTS means entirely. | 00:34 |
| [Saint_] | And/or inventing reality | 00:34 |
| Guest28273 | If I uses 14 will it run or be to slow on an AMD Athlon XP 1500+ . memory 512 MB | 00:35 |
| OerHeks | Guest28273, get Xubuntu for such ancient hardware | 00:35 |
| lagbox | dont use unity | 00:35 |
| lagbox | and dont use a 3d desktop | 00:35 |
| [Saint_] | Anything'll run slow on such hardware, really. | 00:35 |
| Guest28273 | if not will 12 do anything significantly better ... I mean 10 lucid seems to be medium speed already | 00:35 |
| [Saint_] | You'd have to have some form of VERY minimal setup for that to not run like a bag of crap. | 00:35 |
| lagbox | there are ways to gain performance on older systems but that is a process | 00:35 |
| [Saint_] | LXDE+openbox, or even perhaps solely openbox. | 00:35 |
| lagbox | lots of tweaking | 00:35 |
| [Saint_] | Even LXDE is probably too heavy for 512MB RAM | 00:36 |
| lagbox | window maker :) | 00:36 |
| Guest28273 | Well of course I will turn off monitor features to speedup things but other then that I cann\t manipulate much more even if I in large swap space it is not going to speed anything up :) | 00:36 |
| [Saint_] | On a system with that little CPU and RAM, I wouldn't even consider trying to run a GUI. | 00:36 |
| lagbox | yea you will hit a limit | 00:36 |
| Guest28273 | will the monitor toning it down be enough | 00:36 |
| lagbox | make sure it has a decent graphics card if your worried about video | 00:37 |
| lagbox | that processor wont handle software decompression very well i would imagine | 00:37 |
| [Saint_] | With an Athlon XP 1500+ and 512MB RAM, I sincerely doubt it has decent graphics capabilities. | 00:37 |
| lagbox | i mean video decoding | 00:37 |
| [Saint_] | Likely some embedded chipset cruft. | 00:37 |
| lagbox | i have boxes that have those specs but they are headless | 00:37 |
| Guest28273 | fuck this old hardware shit I have had enough mucking with and fixing this shit to the point of ridiculousness I still have more then 10 year old computers running fine but laptops suck my dick | 00:38 |
| lagbox | laptops can be a pain because they are already slower | 00:38 |
| Guest28273 | right | 00:38 |
| Ben64 | Guest28273: hey, that language is not appreciated in this channel | 00:38 |
| Guest28273 | well I am going to give it a try at least | 00:38 |
| lagbox | i literally bought a refurb 2 years ago this time for $300 that is a beast of a laptop | 00:38 |
| [Saint_] | If you buy a crap laptop...it'll be a crap laptop. | 00:39 |
| [Saint_] | A craptop. | 00:39 |
| lagbox | when i mean beast i mean good | 00:39 |
| [Saint_] | There are, however, laptops that vastly excede most consuer desktops of the day. | 00:39 |
| [Saint_] | You get what you pay for. | 00:39 |
| Guest28273 | At the vary least I can at least download the newest tar of firefox and uses that with out the plugin features most of the other features will work just not video/flash things | 00:40 |
| [Saint_] | *consumer | 00:40 |
| lagbox | exactly | 00:40 |
| lagbox | Guest28273, hopefully | 00:40 |
| lagbox | i guess it cant hurt to try | 00:40 |
| lagbox | turn off all services you dont need, etc | 00:40 |
| [Saint_] | Guest28273: is the expense prohibitive, or...what? | 00:40 |
| Guest28273 | You get what you pay for well how about i get access to all the companies and make everything from scratch with a few people helping here and there don't need much just access and time to thing | 00:41 |
| [Saint_] | There's very little good reason to be running hardware that is a decade old in this day and age. | 00:41 |
| lagbox | Guest28273, would be nice | 00:41 |
| [Saint_] | Well...there's nothing stopping you from doing that. One can buy generic laptop cases the same as they can PC cases. | 00:42 |
| [Saint_] | I've built all my laptops based on requirement. | 00:42 |
| [Saint_] | You can too. | 00:42 |
| lagbox | yes you can build your own .... it just doesn't seem to be cheaper | 00:42 |
| Guest28273 | I still don't get how people define a persons worth by money smarts strength "NATURAL" will I have to say pound for pound nobody comes closes | 00:42 |
| [Saint_] | Oh, no, certainly not. | 00:42 |
| Guest28273 | well except maybe a few | 00:42 |
| * [Saint_] fails to parse that | 00:42 | |
| [Saint_] | It was just a random jumble of words | 00:42 |
| lagbox | Guest28273, yes we have a crazy society where our self worth is skewd | 00:42 |
| lagbox | but back to ubuntu | 00:43 |
| gac | i don't think anyone here is defining you based on money - we're just curious why you're persevering with such old hardware which is already frustrating you right now, and is only going to get worse | 00:43 |
| Guest28273 | ya if I had access to everything then maybe people would see that I can do there work just as good as them | 00:43 |
| lagbox | Guest28273, and i would like to see you have that oppurtunity | 00:43 |
| [Saint_] | gac: well said | 00:43 |
| gac | if computing is important to you, as it seems to be, it's worth investing a little in | 00:43 |
| [Saint_] | no one is defining you as anything, Guest28273. | 00:44 |
| [Saint_] | We're just wondering why you're keeping decade old hardware alive for seemingly no reason. | 00:44 |
| gac | i wish I could run the same computer I had 10 years ago - if I want a good experience then I can't, and I have to deal with that with occasional upgrades | 00:44 |
| [Saint_] | Which is a valid question. | 00:44 |
| gac | "such is life" | 00:44 |
| lagbox | im not better because i have a newer laptop, that would be silly and immoral | 00:44 |
| FilthyMacNasty | I got a cloud of old crap computers people dropped off at ny computer shop | 00:44 |
| Ben64 | can you move this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:44 |
| [Saint_] | ...a please would be nice. | 00:45 |
| lagbox | i know this has been answered im sure ... is it possible to test out mir yet on 14.10 ? | 00:45 |
| Guest28273 | well working when I am at my best not when I am pissed off or using 10/20% ish of my ability | 00:45 |
| lagbox | or are we still that far off | 00:46 |
| [Saint_] | lagbox: its been possible for roughly a year | 00:46 |
| [Saint_] | longer, I think. | 00:46 |
| Guest28273 | the whole point of this question is irrelevent I had the means to figure it out if I really wanted to hell I have computers that are like 13 years old running fine I don't think I would have to much problems figuring this out problem is it gets as boreing here with nothing to do | 00:47 |
| lagbox | gotcha | 00:47 |
| FilthyMacNasty | don't feel bad, my mail server still runs dapper drake | 00:47 |
| Guest28273 | so I like getting the people going lol | 00:47 |
| gac | 6.06; that seems...brave | 00:48 |
| lagbox | noice | 00:48 |
| FilthyMacNasty | it's never been blacklisted for getting pwned | 00:48 |
| OerHeks | lagbox, the closest thing you can get to even trying the Mir/Unity 8 combination is a special ISO build called Ubuntu Desktop Next. http://www.techrepublic.com/article/is-mir-and-convergent-desktop-hampering-the-development-of-ubuntu/ | 00:48 |
| lagbox | OerHeks, thanks | 00:48 |
| lagbox | and i love that title | 00:49 |
| [Saint_] | errr, that's not even remotely true. | 00:49 |
| [Saint_] | We've been able to run a Mir preview you an age. | 00:49 |
| [Saint_] | bah. damn autocomplete | 00:49 |
| OerHeks | it is pointing to http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-desktop-next/daily-live/current/ and should seek support in #ubuntu+1 | 00:49 |
| [Saint_] | see: http://unity.ubuntu.com/mir/using_mir_on_pc.html | 00:50 |
| [Saint_] | that's been a possibility since...jeez, 13.04? | 00:50 |
| lagbox | i would rather them have had mir ready for desktop instead of worrying about mobile | 00:51 |
| [Saint_] | lagbox: makes more sense for them to work out the kinks on the smaller platform | 00:52 |
| [Saint_] | it'll get there. | 00:52 |
| [Saint_] | slowly. | 00:52 |
| [Saint_] | As most things Ubuntu do. | 00:52 |
| FilthyMacNasty | it will either work or die | 00:53 |
| [Saint_] | Many would argue it is dead already but Ubuntu is just overly persistent with flogging a dead horse. | 00:53 |
| * [Saint_] shrugs | 00:53 | |
| lagbox | indeed | 00:53 |
| lagbox | thanks for the info | 00:53 |
| FilthyMacNasty | they dumped that ubuntu one idea like a hot rock | 00:54 |
| lagbox | now back to playing with drivers to get off of fglrx | 00:54 |
| [Saint_] | Well, in all seriousness, Ubuntu One was largely irrelevant. | 00:55 |
| [Saint_] | No reason to concentrate on a cloud storage platform when many other players are vastly better at it than you are. | 00:56 |
| [Saint_] | One of the few times Ubuntu seems to have admitted an irrelevancy instead of forcing it and beating it into the ground. | 00:56 |

| zykotick9 | Michael_: /etc/network/interfaces is your friend | 01:22 |

| FilthyMacNasty | videowhisper and red5 | 01:24 |
| nownot | plex works good but i can hide folders | 01:24 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ also to shutdown network-manager has been tricky at times with service network-manager -stop ; | 01:25 |
| Michael_ | daftykins: Once I tried that with help of people in this forum. I can't exclude that something was done wrong. For the time being I am killing the processes in order to see which are actually responsible for networking. Perhaps I will examine the source codes later. | 01:25 |
| Michael_ | sacarlson: I want to have networking starting automatically without NetworkManager, that's the whole point. | 01:25 |
| Michael_ | automatically at boot, of course. | 01:25 |
| daftykins | Michael_: may i suggest that it'd make a lot more sense to share the config file with us so we can see if it was made wrong? also you don't volunteer any info as to why it went wrong? | 01:25 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ you don't need network-manager to autostart networks that can still be done in /etc/network/interfaces | 01:26 |
| Michael_ | I have DHCP/NAT. I will share this configuration, where's this page where I should paste the links? | 01:27 |
| Michael_ | As to why it went wrong, I don't exactly remember. | 01:27 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ to override auto you can use ifdown eth0 ; ifup eth0 ; or setup scripts to change things after boot | 01:27 |

| gjo | restarted pc ... logged on ... System program problem discovered | 01:29 |
| Michael_ | aha, but why it went wrong, the point is that I need authorization, but I don't want to have X-es running, I want to start networking in purely console environment, I didn't know how to do that, I tried to call NetworkManager applets from fluxbox to be nearer the approach, but it was of no use | 01:29 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ if you want a full example you can look at my software that is published https://github.com/sacarlson/mini-isp.debpackage that set everything with no network-manager | 01:29 |

| TheRoaringGirl | I need som help with setting up the audio | 01:35 |
| EriC^^ | gjo: remove the fglrx one first | 01:35 |
| daftykins | Michael_: this'll still be lacking DNS too, so you would need resolvconf removed and to hardcode DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf | 01:35 |

| gjo | i see several lines after that | 01:36 |

| EriC^^ | gjo: anything that stands out? do they all start with fglrx? | 01:36 |
| Triple1Truth | If someone named Atrius ever joins any server, stay away from him | 01:36 |

| Michael_ | daftykins: I don't understand you. I don't know if it's complete or not. The config's just like that and networking works (with NetworkManager). | 01:38 |
| Michael_ | daftykins: and I didn't create it. | 01:38 |
| EriC^^ | gjo: ok, try sudo apt-get purge fglrx* | 01:38 |
| sacarlson | michael_ first error: you didn't add auto eth0:0 to autostart network | 01:38 |
| daftykins | Michael_: yeah i'm not quite following you either. can you pastebin "ifconfig -a" ? | 01:38 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ next I'm not sure why you are using eth0:0 as a device as that's virtual but I guess that's optional but I think you still need to bring up the real one before a virtual can be added. | 01:39 |
| Michael_ | Hey. *I didn't change the configuration yet*. | 01:39 |

| gjo | ok, removing fglrx code now | 01:40 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ next: you don't have a gateway setting in your network. unless you don't plan to have wan access and you have no other subnets, you will need one. see here for an example http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 01:40 |

I'm gonna be careful cause once I uninstalled NetoworkManager and there was no way to have it back and running. For the time being I'm gonna kill almost all pids , see which ones relate to networking, then examining their source code and see what's actually going there. I will be then | 01:52 |

| Ben64 | Michael_: this is a wireless network you're trying to connect to without a network manager? | 01:53 |
| daftykins | Michael_: never mind, never asked if it was wireless. | 01:53 |
| Michael_ | yes, it's wireless. | 01:53 |
| EriC^^ | gjo: ok, what does the error say btw? | 01:54 |
| daftykins | Michael_: so if you want to use a static IP, use network manager to specify it, it'll be hair-tearing-out-painful to try and use the interfaces file | 01:54 |

| gjo | there is much more ... not sure what is helpful | 01:57 |
| Ben64 | Michael_: why do you want to not use network manager | 01:57 |
| Michael_ | Ben64: because I don't know how to have it running without X-es | 01:57 |

| Michael_ | daftykins: it must be possible. If it's possible to start it in GUI, then it must be possible to do it with cli. And the only thing which we need is the ability to read the source code, which is, thankfully, open, and I have this. | 02:00 |

| MDTech-us_MAN | is there a "preffered" way? | 02:39 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | I am mainly worried about bandwith here | 02:39 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | so it would be nice if it compresses stuff before sending | 02:40 |
| daftykins | i think you mean throughput, not bandwidth | 02:41 |
| daftykins | and why does it matter so? | 02:41 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | one of the VPS that will have a bandwidth limit | 02:41 |
| kahtahs_ | does Ubiquity in trusty put the bootloader automatically in the mbr when one manual partitions or should one explicitly leave space unallocated in the beginning? | 02:41 |
| sacarlson | MDTech-us_MAN: sorry I've never really compared bandwidth much. I've used ssh and samba that seem to be about the same | 02:41 |
| daftykins | get a better allowance on that VPS | 02:41 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | I am planning to move away from that VPS company entirely | 02:42 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | they are too expencive | 02:42 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | and they have service interruptions | 02:42 |
| Ben64 | MDTech-us_MAN: if you want stuff compressed you can do that over a compressed ssh session | 02:42 |
| Ben64 | not going to have much of an effect on most files though | 02:43 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | why? | 02:43 |
| sacarlson | MDTech-us_MAN: I just prefer ssh as it provides easy access to any point of a system | 02:43 |
| Ben64 | most stuff is already about as small as it can get | 02:43 |

| MDTech-us_MAN | first install the tools | 02:47 |
| linus_s | yes I am on VMware workstation | 02:47 |
| Ben64 | linus_s: then you'll need to check the vmware documentation | 02:47 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | I know | 02:47 |
| linus_s | ok I'll check out the tools | 02:47 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | the tools will help alot with all stuff | 02:47 |
| sacarlson | linus_s: oh vmware I never tried but on virtual box it's cool with the added guest extra package you can share bettween host any directory and cut and paist is integrated | 02:48 |
| Avic | all the work customizing the desktop unviornment... and cant copy paste... | 02:48 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | they sacarlson, its the same for vmware | 02:48 |
| sacarlson | MDTech-us_MAN: cool but virtualbox is free and vmware is $$ | 02:48 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | true | 02:48 |
| sacarlson | I be pooe boy | 02:49 |
| Ben64 | Avic: get a remote desktop client that supports that | 02:49 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | I bout ESX | 02:49 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | *bought | 02:49 |
| linus_s | MDTech-us_Man just to clarify | 02:49 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | yes | 02:49 |
| linus_s | do you remember if it was tools installed INSIDE of the linux VM or outside in my windows OS? | 02:49 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | tools are ofcourse installed on the guest OS | 02:49 |
| linus_s | ok just checking | 02:49 |
| linus_s | thanks again | 02:49 |
| Avic | vnc viewer... dont suport it... | 02:50 |
| after_r | I have this problem where sometimes my mouse wheel scroll event is ignored for the first "click" ... like when switch from firefox to another app, and switch back to firefox, the first mouse wheel click is ignored?? | 02:50 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | no problemo | 02:50 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | he left... | 02:50 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | back to my question | 02:51 |
| MDTech-us_MAN | what is the best and easiest way and most efficient resource wise | 02:51 |
| Ben64 | rsync | 02:51 |
| daftykins | i think you should just get a decent VPS | 02:51 |
| after_r | it seems the problem is not only with firefox but with other apps like nautilious | 02:52 |
| sacarlson | MDTech-us_MAN: oh yes rsync that would be best if you have parts already on the other side | 02:52 |
| reisio | MDTech-us_MAN: tar -cJf foo.tar, then copy it over | 02:52 |
| reisio | well, foo.tar.xz :p | 02:52 |
| reisio | or tar -czf foo.tar.gz for not quite so nightmareish a time compressing | 02:52 |
| after_r | anyone? i will just post in the forums | 02:54 |
| reisio | ? | 02:54 |
| after_r | I have this problem where sometimes my mouse wheel scroll event is ignored for the first "click" ... like when switch from app to another app, and switch back to app, the first mouse wheel click is ignored?? | 02:55 |
| sacarlson | after_r: I don't use that center mouse wheel botton so never missed it | 02:55 |
| SchrodingersScat | could the first wheel click be giving the window focus? | 02:56 |
| sacarlson | after_r: oh the scrool, well then I just keep spinning it until it moves | 02:56 |
| SchrodingersScat | not on my machine | 02:56 |
| after_r | :/ | 02:56 |

| dale_ | hi, how do I use clamTk to scan folders in folders as well as files in folders? | 03:00 |
| SchrodingersScat | dale_: check the manual, -r should be recursive, ie directories of directories | 03:00 |
| sacarlson | dale_: I would think that would be the default recursive | 03:01 |
| dale_ | thanks | 03:01 |
| === Jaggie is now known as SkyWolf | ||
| sacarlson | SchrodingersScat: darn you beet me ha ha | 03:01 |
| SchrodingersScat | sacarlson: also, that doesn't seem to be default | 03:03 |
| igoryonya_ | hello, why, when I do sudo ifup p6p1, I get: Ignoring unknown interface p6p1=p6p1. | 03:03 |
| fantumcoidex | hey anyone know of a way to get feagrouter to install | 03:04 |
| Ben64 | igoryonya_: what are you trying to do | 03:04 |
| sacarlson | SchrodingersScat: see bad info from me AGAIN. lucky I said I would think, but I didn't think | 03:04 |
| igoryonya_ | Bend64, bring up the interface p6p1 and bring it down, when I need it, using ifdown | 03:05 |
| SchrodingersScat | sacarlson: you can test, I made a /tmp/test and then populated it with empty files, including directories with empty files. clamscan seems to go at least one directory deep if you glob with * | 03:06 |
| === Malsasa- is now known as Malsasa | ||
| Ben64 | igoryonya_: well it seems you don't have a p6p1 interface | 03:08 |
| sacarlson | SchrodingersScat: I am confident and trust you are correct | 03:08 |
| Michael_ | It's me again, thank you for your help, I've managed to set up console networking with wicd-curses, it's awesome ! :) | 03:08 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: what did they do change your ifconfig's | 03:09 |
| igoryonya_ | Ben64, but it shows up in 'lshw' in network section, also in 'ifconfig -a' and in 'ip addr' | 03:09 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ I didn't even know there was a wicd-curses sounds cool | 03:10 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ does it save after reboot? | 03:10 |
| Michael_ | sacarlson: saved me debugging at least :) | 03:10 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ well lucky you didn't listen to me then it would have taken longer | 03:10 |
| Michael_ | sacarlson: yes, I checked that. Just it is necessary to service network-manager down. And you have to configure your wireless and save the password in this program, otherwise it won't run. | 03:11 |
| igoryonya_ | sacarlson, because, since, in ubuntu 14.04, (service or /etc/init.d/) networking (stop|start|restart) stopped working, I have to resort to using ifdown -a; ifup -a, but p6p1 shows that error, when I try to bring it up. | 03:11 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ this is what my plan was http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=263136 would have been way more complicated | 03:11 |
| Michael_ | (by configuring your wireless I mean that you just have to press C - which is key for configuration in wicd, and then you type the password in the appropriate field, at least it worked for me). | 03:12 |
| Mightcould3 | hello everyone, offtopic channel seems dead :( | 03:13 |
| Michael_ | sacarlson: I once tried that and it worked on Slackware but it didn't want to work on Ubuntu. I don't know why. Perhaps I was doing something wrong. | 03:13 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: oh does sudo ifconfig p6p1 up ; bring it up then? | 03:13 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ I have used that method with success but later just setup scripts to do it so I didn't have to make permanent changes to my system as wifi was always changing | 03:14 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ but next time I need it I will look at your wicd method as I've always liked there wicd gui | 03:15 |
| Michael_ | sacarlson: do you have a link to this script? I like reading such things, so if you're willing to share... | 03:15 |
| igoryonya_ | sacarlson, it does, so, but then is there a way to do a it by a wildcard to restart all interfaces, similar to ifdown -a; ifup -a, I don't want to restart a server every time I change some network config. | 03:15 |
| sacarlson | Michael_ I think it's in my older mini-isp files on github if you want to take a look at them | 03:16 |
| Michael_ | sacarlson: thanks | 03:16 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: I don't know, I've never done it that way, again I just wrote scripts to bring all the nics up and set them as needed | 03:17 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: ifup and ifdown was developed after I learned stuf. I did try ifup ifdown but it conflicted with my old ways so held back on using them | 03:18 |
| ubuntuaddicted | test | 03:18 |
| kahtahs_ | fdisk -l /dev/sda shows three partitions. even tho i only configured 2 in ubiquity. unknown new partition is the same size swap and positioned just before swap but id 5 not 82 | 03:19 |
| kahtahs_ | s/same size swap/same size as swap | 03:19 |
| igoryonya_ | maybe anyone knows, why ifup doesn't work for that interface, it works for others. | 03:19 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: I think it's best to work on using ifup ifdown correctly if you don't have conflicts like me | 03:19 |
| morsing | Hey guys, so - my system hangs on login and I am now forced to use "tty"? to do anything. I am pretty sure the problem is that I installed the ati-graphics thing from the software center, can anybody help me fix this? I am on 14.10 | 03:19 |
| lagbox | you installed the fglrx drivers ? | 03:20 |
| ubuntuaddicted | im trying to join another channel but it says can't join i need to be idetified by services | 03:20 |
| morsing | @lagbox Yeah | 03:20 |
| lagbox | ubuntuaddicted, you need to register your nickname more than likely | 03:20 |
| ubuntuaddicted | lagbox, my nickname has been registered for forever | 03:20 |
| ubuntuaddicted | lagbox, how do i register again? guess i'll try again | 03:21 |
| lagbox | /m nickserv help | 03:21 |
| lagbox | says it isn't registered | 03:21 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: there is also this newer method to bring up devices ip link set dev eth0 up | 03:22 |
| lagbox | they do get released if you dont identify for awhile | 03:22 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: oh it could also be some need to edit preup scripts | 03:22 |
| morsing | I am thinking I can just remove the package, but i am a bit hindered when only using tty to do stuff. (googling is a bit difficult) | 03:22 |
| === Owner__ is now known as Guest41706 | ||
| lagbox | ill see if i can get you the packages you need to reinstall | 03:24 |
| igoryonya_ | sacarlson, I need a wildcard method, that will bring up or down all cards at once, without listing all interfaces individually, like ifup -a or ifdown -a does or mount -a for disks, for example. | 03:24 |
| morsing | I might also have forgot to remove the old ones, which I assume probably caused some problems too. But thanks! | 03:25 |
| igoryonya_ | as it does while starting the computer | 03:25 |
| lagbox | morsing, seems like a common issue | 03:25 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: yes and those should work if /etc/network/if-up.d/upstart is setup correctly | 03:25 |
| morsing | oh okay. | 03:26 |
| lagbox | you can try purging fglrx and reinstalling it ... but i imagine you want to go to the open source drivers ? | 03:26 |
| edition | is there a stable graphics driver for the AMD/ATI cards? | 03:27 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: maybe the scripts aren't setup to support that strange name of your device. you will have to look at both scripts for up and down | 03:27 |
| lagbox | edition, depending upon the card and what features you need there are open source drivers and proprietary drivers | 03:27 |
| morsing | Yeah, that will be fine now. I just couldn't get "direct rendering" when try to play games, so I wanted to try another driver. | 03:27 |
| morsing | I am on HD4890 | 03:27 |
| lagbox | morsing, so you had a desktop before with fglrx working ? | 03:28 |
| edition | lagbox, OpenGL applications like flightgear have serious problems. The 'generic' driver isn't suitable for gaming. | 03:28 |
| igoryonya_ | sacarlson, so ifup looks in /etc/network/if-up.d/ folder for bringing up interfaces? | 03:28 |
| edition | lagox: Would the non-free drivers be a better option? | 03:28 |
| morsing | I upgraded from 14.04 to 14.10 using the built in thing, but suddenly steam complained about direct rendering. | 03:28 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: yes and the script looks at all process that need to use nets when it does connect | 03:29 |
| lagbox | honestly i can't stand fglrx | 03:30 |
| lagbox | i think its a pile of crap | 03:30 |
| lagbox | but besides that ... you may need to use them depending upon the card | 03:30 |
| lagbox | and will probably have better results than me | 03:30 |
| morsing | How do i purge it? dpkg? - but the oss drivers worked fine before, so I will just go back to those. | 03:30 |
| lagbox | morsing, you can purge fglrx then you would have to reinstall xorg stuff and libmesa and that stuff | 03:31 |
| igoryonya_ | lagbox, edition, opensource drivers for ati cards are to slow yet, they are still playing catch up to be feature complete as the proprietary drivers, so no time for speed optimization yet. so, for now, have to use proprietary drivers, if looking for performance. | 03:31 |
| edition | thanks | 03:31 |
| igoryonya_ | edition, on amd.com site, you can download the ati drivers for linux. | 03:31 |
| lagbox | i have always had better results with the open source drivers | 03:31 |
| lagbox | but then again i dont play games | 03:31 |
| edition | well its more to do with graphics performance. | 03:32 |
| edition | but gaming is important. | 03:32 |
| igoryonya_ | lagbox, even gnome/unity and video players lag, when I tried to use opensource | 03:32 |
| lagbox | not for me | 03:32 |
| lagbox | its the opposite | 03:32 |
| lagbox | fglrx is laggy | 03:32 |
| lagbox | open source drivers were smooth as silk | 03:33 |
| morsing | @lagbox, i am pretty sure the mesa drivers are still there. Which might be the cause of my problems, unless fglrx uninstalled them. But they might have conflicted and now it is all fucked? | 03:33 |
| lagbox | morsing, its possible | 03:34 |
| igoryonya_ | sacarlson, thank you, I will look inside those files. | 03:34 |
| sacarlson | igoryonya_: ok good luck and have fun | 03:35 |
| morsing | I think i will just try removing the fglrx drivers and see what happen, can't be worse than tty. Can you help me with the command? | 03:35 |
| lagbox | morsing, yea i will find it ... just recovering from a graphical glitch that likes to lock up unity / compiz / chrome with these drivers | 03:36 |
| morsing | @lagbox Alright, thanks a lot. | 03:36 |
| igoryonya_ | morsing, you might also have some nvidia drivers installed that conflict with ati drivers, I've had that problem before. Checked and uninstalled nvidia drivers and it started working. The reason, because I had an nvidia card before, the drivers left over. | 03:37 |
| lagbox | morsing, did you see a message like this Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0 ? | 03:38 |
| morsing | Can't remember, but it said some errors. | 03:38 |
| morsing | Can i find them again somewhere? | 03:39 |

| xangua | bray90820: there are several PC on stick that comes with ubuntu if that is what you are looking for | 03:43 |
| igoryonya_ | bray90820, I think you can install ubuntu on rasberry pi, if you install wayland instead of xorg., I might be wrong. | 03:43 |
| bray90820 | I was actually gonna turn my raspberry pi into a tablet | 03:44 |
| somsip | igoryonya_: there is no version of ubuntu that runs on a pi. It's to do with the instruction set supported by the pi (arm6) and that required by arm ports of ubuntu (arm7) IIRC | 03:48 |
| === xubuntu is now known as Guest82961 | ||
| igoryonya_ | somsip, what about the phone version of ubuntu? | 03:54 |
| [Saint_] | somsip: that's plainly untrue | 03:55 |
| [Saint_] | If you go back far enough, of course you can run Ubuntu on a pi. | 03:56 |
| [Saint_] | FWIW, I'm taking issue with the "no version" statement. | 03:56 |
| [Saint_] | As that is demonstrably untrue. | 03:56 |
| [Saint_] | No /current/ version, sure. I'll accept that. | 03:57 |
| [Saint_] | No version /period/, is quite wrong. | 03:57 |
| somsip | [Saint_]: give me one link | 03:57 |
| somsip | igoryonya_: it's a phone version, not a pi version | 03:58 |
| [Saint_] | somsip: jaunty and karmic will run on a pi. | 03:58 |
| [Saint_] | In theory. | 03:59 |
| [Saint_] | Ubuntu /did/ support ARM not so long ago. | 03:59 |
| [Saint_] | Ubuntu pissed and moaned about the raspberrypi and asked them to specifically stop staing it had compatibility. | 03:59 |
| [Saint_] | It was hilarious. | 03:59 |
| somsip | [Saint_]: so that's 9.1 which has been EOL for..how long? I disagree that is a solution. | 04:00 |
| [Saint_] | It still invalidates your claim, does it not? | 04:00 |
| [Saint_] | Saying otherwise is demonstrably untrue. | 04:00 |
| somsip | [Saint_]: but next time I say this to anyone here, I will add 'no current and supported version' - you're right on that | 04:00 |
| minashokry | hi everyone, after upgrading to 14.10 none of apps is able to use the laptop webcam, any clues where to start debugging or what to do? | 04:03 |
| daftykins | [Saint_]: i think you're failing to see the wood for the trees. the channel doesn't support EOL releases so your point is moot. | 04:03 |
| sacarlson | you can install ubuntu on rasbarry pi if you want to compile a system for arm6, and that can be done. but easier to just port an app to debian and compile just your app if not already suported on debian | 04:03 |
| [Saint_] | daftykins: I think you're just being assinine, the point is valid. | 04:04 |
| [Saint_] | The statement "no version of Ubuntu for raspberrypi" is wrong. Period. | 04:05 |
| daftykins | [Saint_]: there's no need to get so personally attacking in here. this is a friendly channel meant to connect volunteers with people that have questions. rather than second guessing other volunteers, perhaps you could focus on actually helping people? | 04:06 |
| sacarlson | [Saint_]: I think there are just no supported binarry repository at this time, but you can compile it and we will support a none EOL compiled on rasberry pi | 04:06 |

| lickalott | gents, for some reason I can't map my wifes laptop to any of my NFS shares and I can't figure out what it is that's preventing it. | 04:13 |

| lagbox | mine is 51 C at the moment | 04:14 |
| edition | anyway. How can i assess the damage? | 04:14 |
| lagbox | if i run it full with full graphics it will hit 90C | 04:14 |
| edition | (to my laptop cpu) | 04:14 |
| lagbox | probably not really easily | 04:15 |
| [Saint_] | edition: assuming the reported temperature is correct, its largely capable of looking after itself. Unless you've diabled thermal limiting/shutdown at a BIOS level. | 04:15 |
| lagbox | to me its more about heat damage over time at that rate | 04:15 |
| [Saint_] | It'll take care of itself if it thinks its in danger. | 04:15 |

| edition | :) | 04:18 |
| lagbox | some of those will disable the fan | 04:18 |
| edition | \o/ | 04:18 |
| edition | fire hazard. | 04:18 |
| lagbox | if there is software that will control that i would use that before playing with boot params | 04:19 |
| [Saint_] | install lm-sensors and run 'sensors' to get a wider view of what's ahppening with fan speed, C|GPU temp, chassis temp, disk temp, etc. | 04:19 |
| [Saint_] | its also your freind, and required, for fancontrol. | 04:20 |
| [Saint_] | But there's a great many ways to do this. | 04:20 |
| lickalott | sacarlson, yes. My account works fine (from anywhere) | 04:20 |
| lagbox | plus the computer should be able to regulate the fan itself | 04:21 |
| lagbox | more than likely you probably need to blow out the vents and make sure the laptop isn't directly on a surface | 04:21 |
| [Saint_] | Placement of the box can make a huge difference as well. | 04:22 |
| [Saint_] | If its just sucking the hot air its blowing out back in, you're gonna have a bad time. | 04:22 |
| lagbox | plus there is actually a different between notebooks and laptops | 04:22 |
| lagbox | difference | 04:22 |
| lickalott | sacarlson, http://paste2.org/GPy6sMEF | 04:22 |
| edition | I blame HP. | 04:22 |
| lickalott | you want FSTAB also? | 04:23 |
| lickalott | btw: thanks for taking the time | 04:23 |
| [Saint_] | Really? I thought notbook/laptop was largely interchangeable, and netbook was the one that should be differentiated against? | 04:23 |
| [Saint_] | But I suppose the usage varies by locality. | 04:23 |
| JordanJ2 | Hi all, All my menu's text seemed to have turned black, can I reset this to white text? | 04:23 |
| lagbox | some are not made to be directly put on surfaces that they can't easily vent | 04:24 |
| cfhowlett | JordanJ2, settings > appearance | 04:24 |
| reisio | the only netbooks anyone sells anymore are chromebooks, and they don't call them netbooks | 04:24 |
| reisio | all some kind of laptop | 04:24 |
| lagbox | not netbook | 04:24 |
| edition | ok. Thanks for the help everyone. I'll have to shutdown the system for a while... | 04:25 |
| lagbox | i would recommend blowing out the vents | 04:25 |
| edition | lagbox: continue this conversation at #ubuntu-chat? | 04:26 |
| JordanJ2 | cfhowlett: Where in there? | 04:26 |
| [Saint_] | Clean her out, sure. But its largely capable of looking after itself if you've not specifically disabled thermal limiting. | 04:26 |
| lagbox | sure | 04:26 |
| cfhowlett | JordanJ2, should be a selection of themes which = appearance. experiement | 04:26 |
| cfhowlett | *experiment* | 04:26 |
| JordanJ2 | cfhowlett: Don't see that.. | 04:27 |
| cfhowlett | JordanJ2, might be a xubuntu thing ... I've never used unity ubuntu so I *could* be in error. but you should have an appearance reset button somewhere. | 04:28 |
| JordanJ2 | I have "Reset behavioural settings" | 04:28 |
| JordanJ2 | But doesn't touch that | 04:29 |
| SchrodingersScat | JordanJ2: appearance settings refuses to always on top, but I'm in xubuntu 14.04 if that helps you at all. | 04:30 |
| JordanJ2 | SchrodingersScat: Fixed | 04:31 |
| sacarlson | lickalott: yes the fstab might help also, I don't see anything outstandingly wrong in exports but it's been some time since I've played with nfs | 04:31 |
| cfhowlett | SchrodingersScat, as am I. he said his colors reversed so I thought it must be "appearance": ... | 04:31 |
| SchrodingersScat | oops, i reversed that somehow | 04:31 |
| lickalott | k. wait 1 sacarlson | 04:31 |
| sacarlson | lickalott: also I'm already getting ready to go fly and go cook and eat breakfast so don't have much time but with that added info there should be others here that can also help | 04:32 |
| lickalott | http://paste2.org/ndzphtbn | 04:32 |
| lickalott | i ensured that the NFS client package was installed for windows. | 04:33 |
| sacarlson | lickalott: more on the client side is needed fstab on the client or the method used to connect to nfs from client | 04:34 |
| lickalott | sorry... | 04:34 |
| lickalott | mount -o <IP>:/media/wolverine (for example) | 04:34 |
| sacarlson | lickalott: oh clients on windows, can you test a client from a linux system? I have no knoledge of windows setup for nfs | 04:35 |
| lickalott | it makes the connection fine. Shows up under my computer, but when I double click on it from her computer it says permission denied | 04:35 |
| lickalott | yes sacarlson. All my other clients work fine: With my account. | 04:35 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| sacarlson | lickalott: other clients being on linux? | 04:35 |
| lickalott | both flavors (*nix and winblows) | 04:35 |
| === root is now known as Guest33420 | ||
| sacarlson | lickalott: then the problem is on the windows client side so I can't help you | 04:36 |
| lickalott | ok. thanks anyway! | 04:36 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| lickalott | have a good flight | 04:36 |
| sacarlson | lickalott: thanks and a good one to you | 04:37 |
| [Saint_] | lickalott: its UID based, do the client names on both sides match? | 04:38 |
| lickalott | yes | 04:38 |
| [Saint_] | (recalling from hitting this issue myself a few moons ago) | 04:38 |
| lickalott | and same password | 04:38 |
| [Saint_] | Ah - well, that's my extremely short list of ideas exhausted. Sorry bud. | 04:38 |
| lickalott | thanks thought | 04:39 |
| lickalott | *though | 04:39 |
| lickalott | i'll keep mashing on the keys til it works. :P | 04:39 |
| * [Saint_] recently discovered what a hilariously bad idea UID based external storage for multi-user machines is | 04:40 | |
| [Saint_] | I managed to go the better part of a decade without hitting an issue, because I'm very predictable, and use largely identical setups across my machines. | 04:40 |
| [Saint_] | I shook that up a bit, and changed the users around, and _everything_ fell over. | 04:40 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| [Saint_] | Easy to fix. But, annoying. | 04:41 |
| marni | hi | 04:42 |
| marni | Anyone there ? | 04:42 |
| marni | hey | 04:42 |
| reisio | hi | 04:42 |
| marni | can you help me | 04:43 |
| marni | ive been stuck on this simple thing all day :( | 04:43 |
| [Saint_] | No one can help you until you tell them what's wrong. :) | 04:43 |
| kalyani | hello when i am xchat it is showing there was an error loading keybinding.confg message is coming and it is not loading previous messages | 04:43 |
| marni | I've done a whole days work of researching how to install a program on ubuntu.. so first I downloaded python.. unpackaged it from .tar.xz now its just python-3.4.2 then I navigated to the dir in terminal.. then ran the ./configure make make test sudo make install commands which took like 10 minutes on my ultra fast broadband .. scanning all the files etc.. now thats all finished how do I open python? it seems like nothing has changed ? | 04:43 |
| kalyani | sorry when i am opening xchat* | 04:44 |
| reisio | marni: what program? | 04:44 |
| marni | python | 04:44 |
| somsip | marni: you want to install a non-standard version of python? Try the deadsnakes PPA | 04:44 |
| marni | ive downloaded like 4 things and done the same thing .. but i dont know how to open any of them ? | 04:44 |
| [Saint_] | 'python' | 04:44 |
| marni | i just need to know how to open a program on ubuntu haha | 04:44 |
| reisio | marni: what version of ubuntu? | 04:44 |
| marni | 14.0 i think | 04:44 |
| marni | the latest one | 04:45 |
| lagbox | 14.10 ? | 04:45 |
| [Saint_] | marni: open a terminal, and type 'python' | 04:45 |
| marni | okk | 04:45 |
| [Saint_] | Press Enter. | 04:45 |
| marni | haha that was easy | 04:45 |
| [Saint_] | Yep. :) | 04:45 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| [Saint_] | Easy to miss, though. | 04:45 |
| marni | but how do i create a new python IDLE? | 04:45 |
| marni | yeh haha ive been looking for an answer all day | 04:45 |
| lagbox | ide ? | 04:46 |
| lkthomas | guys, is there have a way to force chmod 777 on any new directory created on specific folder ? | 04:46 |
| lagbox | sticky | 04:46 |
| marni | Like how do i create a new text editor for python | 04:47 |
| marni | so i can make my own script yknow / | 04:47 |
| lkthomas | lagbox: example ? | 04:47 |
| kalyani | Please help me.....when i am opening xchat it is showing error loading keybinding.confg and also when i am connecting to apertium it is not loading my previous messages | 04:47 |
| reisio | marni: a GUI editor? | 04:47 |
| marni | yehh | 04:47 |
| reisio | marni: gedit | 04:47 |
| lagbox | you can download one | 04:47 |
| marni | gedit? | 04:47 |
| lagbox | gedit is a text editor | 04:47 |
| marni | for python ? | 04:48 |
| lagbox | im sure you can get idle | 04:48 |
| marni | http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9b/Idle_gui.png | 04:48 |
| marni | like that | 04:48 |
| marni | i want that | 04:48 |
| ObrienDave | kalyani, install hexchat. xchat is not maintained | 04:48 |
| marni | but all i have is python in terminal -_- | 04:48 |
| lkthomas | lagbox: is it like chmod 1777 test ? | 04:48 |
| [Saint_] | marni: from the terminal 'idle python_project_name.py" | 04:49 |
| [Saint_] | where python_project_name is something you're supplying. | 04:49 |
| lagbox | idle is in the repo | 04:49 |
| marni | so i just enter idle python_project_name.py into terminal ? | 04:49 |
| marni | says syntaxerror: invalid syntax | 04:49 |
| marni | whats repo ? hahah | 04:50 |
| marni | just got ubuntu confused shitless | 04:50 |
| lagbox | are you in a virtual terminal or do you have a desktop at the moment ? | 04:51 |
| marni | im in terminal | 04:51 |
| [Saint_] | Hmmmm...as far as I'm aware, that /should/ work. It works here. But my setup may be slightly different. | 04:51 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| marni | why cant i just double click an exe for python ? | 04:51 |
| [Saint_] | "idle project_name.py" will either launch project_name, or create it if it doesn't exist. | 04:51 |
| marni | is it like this for everything i download ? | 04:51 |
| SASDOE | could someone highlight me please? | 04:52 |
| ObrienDave | marni, exe are for windows. this is not windows | 04:52 |
| lagbox | which idle | 04:52 |
| [Saint_] | No. There's almost certainly a way to do this via a GUI, I just don't use any form of GUI, so I can't answer that. | 04:52 |
| lagbox | sorry ... command which idle | 04:52 |
| marni | yeh i know so i have to do all this command shit for every program ? | 04:52 |
| lagbox | no | 04:52 |
| [Saint_] | No. | 04:52 |
| marni | :O | 04:52 |
| marni | im using this to learn btw | 04:52 |
| marni | im interested | 04:53 |
| marni | but i just dont get it yet | 04:53 |
| lagbox | is idle even installed | 04:53 |
| [Saint_] | What I'm saying is it almost certainly is possible, I'm just not aware of it, as I don't use a desktop environment. | 04:53 |
| marni | should be | 04:53 |
| lagbox | type which idle | 04:53 |
| marni | ooh i was running script in python .. hold on | 04:53 |
| [Saint_] | heh. | 04:53 |
| marni | what do i type for idle again | 04:53 |
| [Saint_] | 'idle name_of_the_project_you_want_to_open.py" | 04:53 |
| [Saint_] | It'll be created if it doesn't exist. | 04:54 |
| marni | the program idle is not currently installed lol | 04:54 |
| marni | ill sudo install hold up | 04:54 |
| lagbox | which version of python | 04:54 |
| marni | 3.4.2 | 04:54 |
| kalyani | ok obriendave thank you | 04:55 |
| [Saint_] | You could also try pressing the Winkey to open the HUD and then search "IDLE" | 04:55 |
| lagbox | sudo apt-get install idle-python3 and hit tab to complete it | 04:55 |
| marni | oooh haha idle name_of_the_project_you_want_to_open.py" is just a variable | 04:55 |
| marni | ok thanks it worked | 04:55 |
| marni | idle opened | 04:55 |
| marni | so ubuntu is all command based? | 04:56 |
| [Saint_] | No. | 04:56 |
| lkthomas | lagbox: sticky bit 2777 will cause all new subfolder as 777 permission ? | 04:56 |
| lagbox | good old sticky bits | 04:56 |
| marni | but the only way to open something is in terminal right ? | 04:56 |
| [Saint_] | No. | 04:56 |
| ObrienDave | marni, there are 1000's of gui programs and 1000's of cli programs available | 04:57 |
| marni | i dont want them id rather use terminal | 04:57 |
| marni | so to open python every time i have to type into terminal right ? | 04:57 |
| [Saint_] | No. You can create a .desktop link for it if you desire. | 04:57 |
| marni | how ? | 04:58 |
| lagbox | sorry im fighting my system locking up because of these pos fglrx drivers | 04:58 |
| [Saint_] | marni: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles | 04:58 |
| marni | how do i download gedit ?? | 04:59 |
| [Saint_] | It is already installed. | 04:59 |
| marni | oo | 04:59 |
| eronides | "Adobe Flash Player Settings" dialog does not respond to mouse clicks | 04:59 |
| [Saint_] | Open the HUD and type 'gedit' | 04:59 |
| marni | so when it says this | 04:59 |
| marni | Open your favourite text editor, like Gedit or nano, and type in (copy and paste): [Desktop Entry] Version=x.y Name=ProgramName Comment=This is my comment Exec=/home/alex/Documents/exec.sh Icon=/home/alex/Pictures/icon.png Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=Utility;Application; | 04:59 |
| marni | do i just open terminal ? | 05:00 |
| marni | oh right i see | 05:00 |
| marni | gedit is just a text editor | 05:00 |
| lagbox | eronides, common issue | 05:00 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| [Saint_] | You will obviously need to edit the example .desktop file to suit your personal requirements | 05:01 |
| marni | Under program name what do i right ? | 05:01 |
| marni | just Python | 05:01 |
| [Saint_] | If you simply copy and paste the content as is, it will not work. | 05:01 |
| marni | i know i changed the names to my user | 05:02 |
| marni | and i changed program name to Python | 05:02 |
| marni | now do i just save ? | 05:02 |
| [Saint_] | The page describes the function of each entry. | 05:02 |
| lagbox | eronides, theres all kinds of fun issues with flash in linux | 05:02 |
| lagbox | i cant wait for the day flash finally just dies and gets it over with | 05:03 |
| lagbox | ive been waiting since the day it was released | 05:03 |
| [Saint_] | Slow adoption of HTML5 makes it unlikely to happen in the near future. | 05:03 |
| lagbox | i know | 05:04 |
| lagbox | it stinks | 05:04 |
| [Saint_] | The thing I'm really waiting for widespread adoption of is the celt/opus variable codec. | 05:04 |
| [Saint_] | But that's even more of a joke than HTML5 is. | 05:04 |
| [Saint_] | Its sad. | 05:04 |
| marni | path is just to the python folder ? | 05:04 |
| [Saint_] | The amount of network throughput that would be saved by widespread adoption of opus and HTML5 is phenominal | 05:05 |
| [Saint_] | You'd think carriers, ISPs, and telcos, would be jumping at the opportunity to adopt opus and HTML5 | 05:06 |
| [Saint_] | But...nope. | 05:06 |
| [Saint_] | Its weird. | 05:06 |
| marni | [Desktop Entry] Version=3.4.2 Name=Python Comment=Scripting..for noobs Exec=/home/marni/Downloads/Python-3.4.2 Icon=/home/marni/Downloads/Python-3.4.2/Pc/pycon.ico Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=Utility;Application; | 05:07 |
| marni | is this right | 05:07 |
| [Saint_] | That almost certainly isn't the executable directory of the python binary | 05:07 |
| [Saint_] | "which python3.4.2" | 05:08 |
| [Saint_] | That should give you the exact path to the executable | 05:08 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| lagbox | nah they dont mind ... it lets them claim they need to raise their prices | 05:08 |
| marni | oh what is the executable directory, thanks | 05:09 |
| [Saint_] | see above. | 05:09 |
| [Saint_] | I already answered that for you. | 05:09 |
| eronides | lagbox, how? | 05:11 |
| lagbox | how what my friend ? | 05:12 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| marni | Exec=/home/marni/Downloads/Python-3.4.2/python | 05:13 |
| marni | done thanks saint !! | 05:13 |
| marni | cya everyone | 05:13 |
| lagbox | good luck | 05:13 |
| [Saint_] | o/ | 05:13 |
| lagbox | eronides, what version of ubuntu ? | 05:14 |
| lagbox | and besides there may or may not be a solution to that problem | 05:15 |
| eronides | lagbox, ubuntu 14.04 | 05:15 |
| lagbox | i will have to load my browser up again and see if i have that issue as well | 05:15 |
| it_ | anyone here | 05:15 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| lagbox | it_ nope | 05:16 |
| it_ | m new to ubuntu.. using it live.. i wanted to know how could i customize it.. | 05:16 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| sacarlson | it_: there are tools to make custom iso files for ubuntu to add presinstalled packages or remove unneeded ones. I'm not sure that's a good step for a beginner | 05:20 |
| sacarlson | people must think I'm a speed typist or something?? | 05:21 |
| l0rdn1x | eh? | 05:21 |
| l0rdn1x | sacarlson: use 'remastersys' | 05:22 |
| === notzopsi is now known as zopsi | ||
| sacarlson | l0rdn1x: ya but it_ already left the room 20 secounds after asking the question not awaiting the answer | 05:23 |
| sacarlson | l0rdn1x: don't you hate that? | 05:23 |
| l0rdn1x | sacarlson: yes | 05:24 |
| Sachiru | Query: For some reason, sudo apt-fast autoremove does NOT remove old kernel headers from my machine. Why is this? | 05:24 |
| l0rdn1x | sacarlson: they are worse in #elementaryos | 05:24 |
| l0rdn1x | sacarlson: they will stick around maybe 25 35 seconds | 05:24 |
| Sachiru | Add to that my inode count was 99%. Manually removing old headers and rebooting made that go down to 37%. What gives? | 05:25 |
| sacarlson | l0rdn1x: they think we are computers like google that return requests in 1.2 secounds | 05:25 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest97025 | ||
| l0rdn1x | sacarlson: yeah I know what you mean lol | 05:26 |
| ObrienDave | and remastersys has gone bye bye afaik | 05:29 |
| === abb is now known as Guest78159 | ||
| l0rdn1x | ObrienDave: I still have remastersys | 05:30 |
| l0rdn1x | I will have it forever ;) | 05:30 |
| ObrienDave | yea, but the author quit developing it | 05:30 |
| l0rdn1x | Yeah I know he kept getting trolled | 05:31 |
| siloxid | how do I prevent "System Problem detected. Do you want to report this problem now?" dialogs from popping up? I get three every time I log in | 05:31 |
| lagbox | siloxid, well you could fix the problem, that is one way | 05:31 |
| lagbox | but i have a feeling as updates roll out that issue might get resolved | 05:32 |
| * l0rdn1x has a sneaking suspicions that siloxid is using the unicorn lol j/k | 05:33 | |
| siloxid | they have been popping up for six months now. I just want the dialog to go away. | 05:33 |
| lagbox | look at the details and find out what is causing the problem | 05:33 |
| siloxid | the system isn't doing anything horrid so I don't really see a point in the nagware-style dialogs | 05:34 |
| lagbox | because there was a problem | 05:34 |
| siloxid | reminds me of the early nineties shareware trend | 05:34 |
| lagbox | if we dont report software problems how do the developers know there is an issue ? | 05:34 |
| siloxid | you report them silently without a stupid dialog popping up three times on login | 05:34 |
| lagbox | how about you find the problem and fix it | 05:35 |
| lagbox | then it will stop popping up | 05:35 |
| l0rdn1x | siloxid: they have to let you know when your sending a bug report or it's a privacy violation. | 05:35 |
| lagbox | or do something crazy like remove apport or something | 05:35 |
| siloxid | l0rdn1x: yes.. you have a dialog that says "report system problems" with a yes or no button. not rocket science | 05:36 |
| lagbox | that is what we have | 05:36 |
| ObrienDave | so, send the reports. not rocket science either | 05:36 |
| l0rdn1x | siloxid: you have to be notified 'every' time they send data or it's a privacy violation. | 05:36 |
| lagbox | maybe if you sent the damn report they may have fixed it by now ??? | 05:37 |
| siloxid | no. you have three dialogs that pop up saying "system problem detected". if you click on "report problem" it takes you on a wild goose chase. not nearly the same thing | 05:37 |
| siloxid | l0rdn1x: no, it isn't. take a look at how iOS handles the same thing. and chrome. and everything else | 05:37 |
| lagbox | then use a mac | 05:38 |
| ObrienDave | *no feeding trolls* | 05:38 |
| l0rdn1x | siloxid: just remove apport then | 05:38 |
| siloxid | lagbox: use a mac? are you serious? | 05:40 |
| lagbox | no im not .. im just done arguing with you | 05:41 |
| siloxid | lagbox: well that's good. you weren't contributing anything to the conversation | 05:41 |
| l0rdn1x | siloxid: we told you the solutions, you can try and fix the error by looking at the details, or you can remove apport | 05:41 |
| fidelity | hello | 05:43 |

| ObrienDave | Shunya, length or duration is fine :) | 06:05 |

| maven | hello | 06:12 |
| lagbox | hi | 06:12 |
| maven | any Ubuntu expert? need help | 06:12 |
| lagbox | ask away | 06:12 |
| kelvinella | hello, can I create a windows7 bootable USB with this command? dd if=~/xxx.iso of=/dev/sdb1 ?? | 06:13 |
| maven | I am planning to install Ubuntu in over 150 systems in our office. We only use VLC for videos and local network(browser and network file) which distro would you recommend? | 06:14 |
| lagbox | really | 06:14 |
| maven | Yes | 06:14 |
| kelvinella | Do I need sudo dd if=~/xxx.iso of=/dev/sdb1 ?? | 06:14 |
| lagbox | hehe i guess you mean like what flavor of ubuntu ? | 06:14 |
| wallyp | yes | 06:14 |
| Ben64 | maven: whichever you prefer | 06:14 |
| l0rdn1x | I found this guys, http://gentoovps.net/video-length-from-command-line/ then we just make a script that does that recursive for all file names in your folder wham | 06:14 |
| l0rdn1x | lol | 06:14 |
| lagbox | nice | 06:15 |
| maven | Yes :) i asked couple of my friends and they said Lubuntu would be good? | 06:15 |
| l0rdn1x | kelvinella: no | 06:16 |
| sqwaw | maven: you'd probably want something like ubuntu desktop and a kickstart file. you could completely customize the packages that come pre-instaled and tweak as needed | 06:16 |
| sqwaw | http://askubuntu.com/questions/122505/how-do-i-create-a-completely-unattended-install-of-ubuntu | 06:16 |
| l0rdn1x | kelvinella: you can try it though, for fun ;) | 06:18 |
| maven | sqwaw: I checked the link, that is actually good. I was checking SuseStudio, is that any good? | 06:18 |
| edition | basically, I want VLC to stream from the SE401 camera. | 06:19 |

| miandonmenmian | I have installed a software, but it is not showing up on my installed software right after the installation. Is there any command to update the software information without rebooting the computer? | 06:48 |
| akaWolf | someone here used tightvncviewer? | 06:49 |
| lagbox | miandonmenmian, where are you seeing this listed of installed software ? | 06:49 |
| siloxid | ok, my machine finally finished processing files. I rebooted to make it bring up the "report problem" dialogs and submitted the problem. one admin password and five dialogs later it submitted the bug. I'm not seeing any more dialogs now when I log in. awesome! | 06:49 |
| lagbox | sweet only 6 months in the making | 06:49 |
| miandonmenmian | lagbox: not actually seeing, just installed an updated version of a software, and when i call it on the terminal it still shows the old one. But i've had similar issues before. I believe i heard there is a command that refreshes this | 06:50 |
| siloxid | lagbox: the last time I tried to report the problem it went into an infinite loop of dialogs and I gave up | 06:50 |
| edition | lagbox: I need to find a way to get this SE401 camera to work as video1. My laptop webcam by default is video0. | 06:50 |
| lagbox | siloxid, ah ... yea that would be very very annoying | 06:51 |
| lagbox | understandable | 06:51 |
| lagbox | edition, what ever software you are using should be able to see all the devices so you can pick which one | 06:51 |
| edition | I need to install the driver first. | 06:52 |
| edition | somehow. | 06:52 |
| lagbox | miandonmenmian, for fun type which your-command-here | 06:52 |
| lagbox | edition, it is entirely possible that after you get the driver and reboot that that device may become video1 | 06:52 |
| edition | yes. But I need to install the driver first. Any suggestions? | 06:53 |
| lagbox | usb webcam ? | 06:53 |
| akaWolf | someone here used tightvncviewer? | 06:54 |
| miandonmenmian | lagbox: more explicitly I'm talking about cmake. which cmake : /usr/local/bin/cmake then the installer says: -- Installing: /usr/local/bin/cmake | 06:54 |
| Ben64 | akaWolf: ask your actual question | 06:54 |
| miandonmenmian | cmake version says its the old one. | 06:54 |
| lagbox | miandonmenmian, your not installing it from the repo ? | 06:54 |
| miandonmenmian | no | 06:55 |
| lagbox | edition, is it aox, philips, or kensington | 06:55 |
| Ben64 | miandonmenmian: what version of ubuntu do you have, and which version of cmake do y9ou have | 06:55 |
| lagbox | miandonmenmian, do you know where the correct version is located atm ? | 06:55 |
| miandonmenmian | well, i tried with #updatedb and looks like got something | 06:55 |
| miandonmenmian | nah | 06:56 |
| edition | lagbox, according to the hardware description: "Endpoints, Inc. SE401 Webcam", so probably AOX. | 06:56 |
| edition | or not. | 06:56 |
| lagbox | isn't it an external webcam ? | 06:56 |
| miandonmenmian | tried on a new terminal, cmake --help shows the new version. old terminal shows the old version :S | 06:56 |
| edition | yes, its an external webcam. | 06:57 |
| Ben64 | miandonmenmian: ok so close the old terminal? | 06:57 |
| lagbox | ah i guess it has no identifiers on it | 06:57 |
| edition | it was bought more than several years ago; I doubt it. | 06:57 |
| miandonmenmian | Ben64: yeah, well. I tried with #reset before, i was hoping to find a command that refreshes this. but i suppose close the old terminal does the trick | 06:58 |
| lagbox | it could be endpoint | 06:58 |
| lagbox | they make the se402 | 06:58 |
| akaWolf | I can't grab all keyboard events in the fullscreen mode in tight vnc viewer. | 06:58 |
| akaWolf | Ben64: | 06:58 |
| edition | yes, thats the endpoint, but definitely the correct driver. | 06:58 |
| l0rdn1x | lol, it said to run sudo youtube-dl -U , then to run it again and here is what I get when trying to run it the second time.. /usr/bin/youtube-dl: 1: /usr/bin/youtube-dl: Not: not found | 06:59 |

| l0rdn1x | streulma: for real if your going to buy a brand new notebook, send me your Macbook if your gonna toss it lol | 08:06 |
| l0rdn1x | instigator: It makes for better compression. | 08:07 |
| streulma | nooooooooooo | 08:07 |
| l0rdn1x | Goodnight all | 08:07 |
| streulma | I sell it | 08:07 |
| mobyduck | no takers on my keyboard layout problem... I guess I'll try again later | 08:07 |
| instigator | l0rdn1x: from what I read tar does not compress files, only archives a number of files into one file, while gzip and compress a number of files in one file. So I dont see the point of using tar with gzip, since tar does not further compress the file | 08:08 |
| instigator | *while gzip can compress | 08:08 |
| instigator | sorry for typo | 08:09 |
| nick___ | hey | 08:09 |
| nick___ | KTorrent 9 kibs/s wtf.. when my speed test shows 100mbps download speed | 08:09 |
| andreasss | Hi need some help, i need mailutils without postfix. | 08:09 |
| ViaNocturna85 | instigator, you are quite right. Tar is just an archiver, whilst gzip and bzip would be better for your needs | 08:09 |
| andreasss | or use the command mail i need | 08:10 |
| nick___ | anyone suggest a better torrent ? | 08:10 |
| mobyduck | nvm. Solved it. | 08:10 |
| blaaa | instigator: you use gzip to compress and tar to archive | 08:12 |
| lagbox | gzip is normally used to compress single files, tar to take multiple files and create an archive tar.gz .tgz tarball | 08:12 |
| WizardGed | anything i should know before spinning up the plasma 5 tech preview up in a vm | 08:13 |
| lagbox | i have no idea but it sounds cool | 08:14 |
| WizardGed | hmm it will not start up in virtualbox by default or with nomodset enabled | 08:21 |
| andreas | hello, just installed Geany. it used to work with the 'debugger' (red sign on the line number when fault in code), but it stopped, how do I turn it on again? Coding in PHP, I know next to nothing ye.t | 08:21 |
| WizardGed | have you saved the file as a .php file yet :) | 08:21 |
| andreas | yes | 08:22 |
| andreas | I am running it in xamp, I have syntax highlighting and all | 08:22 |
| WizardGed | ok have to start somewhere that's all | 08:22 |
| andreas | http://bildr.no/view/VnA2dXA1 | 08:23 |
| andreas | screenshot of my geany | 08:23 |
| WizardGed | andreas: wait you want php debugging in geany | 08:28 |
| WizardGed | andreas: that's not possible at the moment | 08:28 |
| WizardGed | andreas: you can use xdebug in eclipse though | 08:29 |
| WizardGed | andreas: just don't download eclipse through your package manager it's outdated and mangled in the default repositories | 08:30 |
| SohamG | How do i change my resolution to 1920x1080 in ubuntu studio? | 08:31 |
| andreas | WizardGed: not full debugging, just red flags when I forget things like ;. It used to work | 08:32 |
| andreas | but it stopped, I probably broke something, tried purging it to no effect | 08:33 |
| andreasss | Oh,,t hanks. | 08:35 |
| andreasss | thanks. | 08:35 |
| andreasss | the only thing i want is to use the mail command but with ssmtp insteed | 08:35 |
| WizardGed | well all the stuff that has to do with syntax highlighting is in View menu > Highlight Mode > Scripts > PHP | 08:36 |

What is being run to get the multimedia keys working? Apparently this use to be handled by gnome-setting-daemon (now unity-settings-daemon), but I am not sure this explains why it doesn't show up in lightdm when it use to. | 08:50 |

| Itachi | for cd/dvds | 09:26 |
| Itachi | hello could someone help me with a problem im having | 09:30 |
| vineet_ | how to install gparted | 09:33 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: i bet someone could help if he knew what your issue is | 09:33 |
| vineet_ | gparted | 09:33 |
| k1l_ | vineet_: "sudo apt-get install gparted" | 09:33 |
| Itachi | i dont think anyone could but ok | 09:33 |
| Itachi | having problems with read/write permissions on cd /dvds | 09:33 |
| Itachi | trying to copy an iso to a disc | 09:33 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: how do you try that? | 09:34 |
| Itachi | i've tried copy paste and just right clicking the iso | 09:34 |
| Itachi | and going write to disc | 09:34 |
| Itachi | when i copy past | 09:34 |
| Itachi | or move | 09:35 |
| Itachi | it says | 09:35 |
| Itachi | the destination is read only | 09:35 |
| k1l_ | is it a RW cd/dvd? | 09:35 |
| Itachi | ill check | 09:36 |
| Itachi | ive tried 3 different cs | 09:36 |
| Itachi | ones a cdr | 09:36 |
| Itachi | ones a dvd r | 09:36 |
| Itachi | tried both | 09:36 |
| Itachi | they have files from a windows computer | 09:36 |
| k1l_ | what ubuntu is that exactly? which program do you use(the filemanager?)? | 09:37 |
| Itachi | told you its such a difficult problem :/ | 09:38 |
| Itachi | kinda puts me off ubuntu | 09:38 |
| Ben64 | can you explain what you want fully in as much detail as possible | 09:38 |
| Itachi | yup | 09:39 |
| Itachi | Okay so i have an iso | 09:39 |
| Itachi | that i downloaded | 09:39 |
| Itachi | i want to put it on a disc | 09:39 |
| Itachi | but the disc says read only | 09:39 |
| Ben64 | if you explain it on one line it will really help people read it | 09:39 |
| k1l_ | i cant crosscheck since i dont have a cd/dvd device anymore. but last time i tried on a differen device it worked as expected. so please put more details in your question (best in one line) | 09:39 |
| Itachi | ive tried 3 differen t discs and searched the problem | 09:39 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: <k1l_> what ubuntu is that exactly? which program do you use(the filemanager?)? | 09:40 |
| Itachi | ubuntu 14.0 | 09:40 |
| Itachi | filemanger ummm | 09:40 |
| Itachi | how do you find out that | 09:40 |
| k1l_ | 14.04? "lsb_release -d" give the full number | 09:40 |
| Itachi | pretty new to ubuntu only got today | 09:40 |
| Itachi | 14.04 yeh | 09:40 |
| Ben64 | Itachi: do you want to write the iso to the disc as an image? or as a file on the disc? normally you'd write it as an image so you can use whatever it is supposed to be | 09:40 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: yes which program do you use for that task? | 09:41 |
| guest-GpmPnd | h | 09:41 |
| Itachi | its an operating system so an image | 09:41 |
| k1l_ | is it the filemanager or something else? | 09:41 |
| Itachi | 14.04 lts | 09:41 |
| Ben64 | Itachi: ok so open up your favorite burning software (mine is k3b) and write it as an image to a blank disc | 09:41 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: can you start the program "brasero" its like nero burning on windows | 09:41 |
| Itachi | ok | 09:41 |
| Itachi | create a new project | 09:42 |
| crypto_guy | hello, how i can disable the LAN input like "blacklist uvcvideo" disable the webcam ? | 09:42 |
| Itachi | seems to not want to do the iso | 09:42 |
| Itachi | it says please replace the disc with a supported cd or dvd.. | 09:43 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: is it a proper image? | 09:43 |
| Ben64 | if you're in brasero, choose "Burn image" | 09:43 |
| Itachi | yeh | 09:43 |
| Itachi | friend used jsut before | 09:43 |
| Ben64 | is the disc completely empty? | 09:43 |
| Itachi | no | 09:43 |
| Ben64 | then you can't burn an image to it | 09:43 |
| Itachi | but it has space | 09:43 |
| Itachi | i think | 09:43 |
| Itachi | how can i delete stuff off it ? | 09:43 |
| Itachi | cause i only have a mac | 09:43 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: no. a iso needs to use the whole disc. | 09:44 |
| Ben64 | so? an image is a full disc image of a disc, and it has to be written fully | 09:44 |
| Itachi | ohh | 09:44 |
| Itachi | is there any way of fomating the disc | 09:44 |
| Ben64 | not if it isn't a cdrw/dvdrw | 09:44 |
| Itachi | oh okay i think i have some cdrws upstairs | 09:45 |
| Itachi | if i grab one will i be able to re write it on ubuntu | 09:45 |
| Ben64 | or you can get a blank cdr | 09:45 |
| Itachi | might not be one | 09:45 |
| Itachi | ill see | 09:45 |
| Itachi | back | 09:48 |
| ppf | hi | 09:48 |
| Itachi | hopefuly not scratched found some cdrws | 09:48 |
| Itachi | hi | 09:48 |
| ppf | i made some modifications to the ubuntu kernel | 09:49 |
| mcphail | Itachi: a cd will be too small for the standard Ubuntu image, I think | 09:49 |
| Itachi | not im trying to put windows 8 | 09:49 |
| Itachi | its 3.6 gb i think | 09:49 |
| ppf | how can i prevent apt from "upgrading" the packages i generate and install when building my kernel? | 09:49 |
| Ben64 | Itachi: yeah, a cd is 0.7GB so that won't work | 09:49 |
| Itachi | really | 09:49 |
| Itachi | it says 4.7gb | 09:49 |
| Ben64 | then that is a dvd | 09:49 |
| Itachi | yeh it is | 09:50 |
| Itachi | dvd rw | 09:50 |
| Itachi | dvd and rw | 09:50 |
| Itachi | ill insert now | 09:50 |
| brainwash | !pinning | ppf | 09:50 |
| ubottu | ppf: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 09:50 |
| Ben64 | cool, have fun | 09:50 |
| Itachi | no wait | 09:50 |
| Itachi | it says this | 09:50 |
| Itachi | you have just inserted a blank dvd choose what to do | 09:50 |
| Itachi | nvm ill see if it works | 09:50 |
| ppf | brainwash: so whenever i build and install a new version of my kernel i should pin it in dpkg/apt? | 09:51 |
| Itachi | sweet looks like its working :) | 09:51 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: its the same task as if you want to burn a iso to a dvd on windows or mac. it may be have other program names or other colors but the task is the same. just dont let you distract because its a linux. | 09:51 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: good. | 09:51 |
| Itachi | yeh i understand now | 09:52 |
| Itachi | only had ubuntu for few hours getting the hang of it now | 09:52 |
| brainwash | ppf: I guess you could pin the ubuntu linux packages by setting the priority to a low value, maybe even 0 or -1 | 09:52 |
| Itachi | does anyone know how much space ubuntu OS takes up ? | 09:52 |
| Itachi | \ | 09:52 |
| mcphail | ppf: you can simply remove the linux-image-generic package and things won't get updated (I think that's the package name...) | 09:53 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: like minimal install? or on a full desktop isntall? | 09:53 |
| Itachi | full desktop install | 09:53 |
| ppf | why does apt try to update my custombuilt packages anyways? is it because of the name and version? | 09:53 |
| Itachi | are you using apt update ? | 09:54 |
| ppf | mcphail: i did that already, and that successfully prevents major version updates, nontheless it still tries to upgrade the individual packages if there is a change within a version | 09:54 |
| brainwash | ppf: take a look at "apt-cache policy <package>" | 09:54 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: i would say 7-15 GB for / (system. depends on what amount of software you want to install) and then /home as much of you need for your files like media, hotos etc. | 09:54 |
| mcphail | ppf: how are you building and installing your kernel? The simple way or are you making a .deb? | 09:54 |
| Itachi | oh okay do you know if you can partion ubuntu whilest running win8 ? | 09:55 |
| Itachi | because i remember when i installed it there was a partion option but thats when i had no OS | 09:55 |
| hariom | Hey guys, any body expert on ubuntu sound issues? I am facing problem: http://pastebin.com/Et5mh77F | 09:55 |
| k1l_ | ppf: apt will install any version that is newer than the one installed, when it finds one in the active repos. | 09:55 |
| ppf | i use the git sources at kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-trusty.git, and i build it using the debian/rules script | 09:55 |
| Ben64 | Itachi: you can't really do anything with ubuntu partitions in windows | 09:55 |
| ppf | and that generates .debs | 09:55 |
| Itachi | o okay | 09:55 |
| mcphail | ppf: Aah. I find it much easier to do a simple make install. I don't like to use the package manager for kernels | 09:56 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: of course you can manually change partitions in the installer. or in the live-ubuntu | 09:56 |
| Itachi | yeh | 09:56 |
| Itachi | I want to learn some more about ubuntu before i move back to windows do you have any suggestions ? | 09:56 |
| Itachi | i know some simple terminal commands | 09:56 |
| ppf | mcphail: that doesn't sound like the worst idea, i think i can give that a shot | 09:57 |
| mcphail | ppf: if you make a deb, it will be updated by the package manager unless you do pinning as above | 09:57 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: just start using it. | 09:57 |
| Itachi | yeh i have but i'm still a bit confused with the installing stuff offline thing | 09:57 |
| ppf | mcphail: or could i somehow make it generate packages with a different name? | 09:57 |
| k1l_ | ppf: use apt pinning to prevent updates | 09:57 |
| mcphail | ppf: probably but I don't know how ;) | 09:58 |

| k1l_ | ppf: but be aware of the updates you need to do manually then | 09:58 |
| Itachi | okay thanks :) | 09:58 |
| bazhang | !rute | Itachi and this | 09:58 |
| ubottu | Itachi and this: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com | 09:58 |
| ppf | yes, i understand that | 09:58 |
| Itachi | what do the names in red mean btw? | 09:58 |
| mcphail | ppf: the only problem I've had with "make install" is the nvidia driver tends to get into a muddle. I always run "apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-whateverversion" afterwards | 09:59 |
| k1l_ | Itachi: its called "highlight". when somebody names your nick | 09:59 |
| ppf | first i'll try to find out how to change the -generic to something more distinguishing, maybe that'll throw apt off it's course! | 09:59 |
| mcphail | ppf: Ha! subterfuge will win! | 10:00 |
| ppf | I hope! | 10:00 |

| boriseto | For some reason, unity on 12.04 doesn't always load the applications. My guess was that it had something to do with the zeitgeist service, but I'm unsure of it. Can anybody point me to a quick fix for loading times? | 11:52 |

| SohamG | OerHeks | 14:01 |
| hateball | aneks: is it a removable media with NTFS filesystem | 14:01 |
| SohamG | thats not working | 14:01 |
| cfhowlett | Samuraicat, I know. on the upside: she's already got partitions. resinstalling *might* not be overly complicated if you are very patient ...and have a good skype/phone line ... | 14:01 |
| hateball | aneks: and what are you trying to acheive/solve | 14:01 |
| aneks | hateball: it's a hard drive that I use for data | 14:01 |
| aneks | hateball: I'm trying to change permissions on it, but for some reason root is the owner and it shouldn't be | 14:02 |
| hateball | aneks: Well is it an ext* filesystem? | 14:02 |
| tony_psy | Hey guys, I just installed ubuntu 14.04 server and when I log in as root and "ls" it doesnt show a home folder. When I adduser it also doesnt show a home folder like my ubuntu desktop. Am I doing something wrong? | 14:02 |
| aneks | hateball: it's an ntfs file system | 14:02 |

| Samuraicat | Thanks all! | 14:03 |
| hateball | aneks: Yes, and you cant change perms on ntfs with chown. As you can see it is mounted with 777 so everyone can alter it. Still not sure what problem you are trying to solve | 14:03 |
| aneks | hateball: how can I change permissions on it or change user and group owner from root to my own username? | 14:04 |
| Surendil | chgrp | 14:05 |
| hateball | aneks: you can mount it with options that set it to your user. it is already 777 so anyone can edit stuff on it anyhow | 14:05 |
| hateball | aneks: if you want to apply linux permissions, you need a linux native filesystem | 14:06 |
| aneks | hateball: the reason being is that my torrents download into a folder on that drive and they won't save, saying permission denied. If it's 777 should be able to work | 14:06 |

| revan | selam | 14:07 |
| ThePendulum | Is there any way to get it back properly or would a complete reinstall probably be the most effortless at this point? | 14:08 |
| Surendil | aneks: as hateball said, you can mount the drive with wr options, if you want to change permissions chgrp user.user -R /mountpoint | 14:08 |
| Surendil | ThePendulum: if you have /home on other partition, yes | 14:09 |
| BSzalai | hi | 14:09 |
| ThePendulum | Surendil: I don't, but there's nothing interesting in /home for me | 14:09 |
| BSzalai | anyone can help why my Krusader file manager runs only in root mode? in normal mode it hangs out | 14:09 |
| ThePendulum | In fact, I could back up if there is any | 14:09 |
| Surendil | sorry, misread the question.. | 14:10 |
| ThePendulum | It's just the GUI and a ton of applications that are gone | 14:10 |
| Surendil | ThePendulum: try apt-get install -f | 14:10 |
| aneks | Surendil: I know how to change group ownership but chgrp igor -R doesn't fix it, it's still owned by root | 14:10 |
| Surendil | might do the trick, if not, reinstall is your bests option | 14:10 |

| Surendil | aneks: then check your /etc/groups file and use the right one | 14:12 |

| webb1wd | hello guys.I have a problem which i think is small for you.I installed a new hdd on my ubuntu pc.I changed the sata ports of the hdd,on the motherboard.The first time i power on the pc i got stuck on the listing pci devices screen(its an old cpc) | 15:24 |
| daftykins | *GUI not UI ;) | 15:24 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: change them back | 15:24 |
| webb1wd | then i went to bios and changed order to boot from and it worked allright | 15:24 |
| AlexPortable | also i don't mean window animation | 15:24 |
| AlexPortable | i mean animation poping up in the left bar | 15:24 |
| webb1wd | thanks daftykins for your answer,i have already slolved this problem and i thought i might be important for the upcoming problem. | 15:25 |
| webb1wd | now i get to ubuntu to startup and i get "Gave up waiting for root device error" | 15:26 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: ok, i shall wait for the actual question | 15:26 |
| msingh_ | #zinc | 15:26 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: so did you have adisk with an old install, then you plugged in the new one and installed a clean ubuntu to that new disk? | 15:26 |

| webb1wd | <daftykins i did so i could get the cables better organised. | 15:30 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: if you boot a live session you can check your UUIDs versus what's in your /etc/fstab file to see if they need updating | 15:30 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: there's no reason they should have changed though | 15:30 |

| daftykins | AlexPortable: maybe you can take pictures, i don't understand what you mean at all, nor does anyone else it seems | 15:32 |
| acerspyro | It's an art style. So is Ubuntu's fade effects. | 15:32 |
| webb1wd | daftykins: my computer is too old for that :S.i have tried it im not sure why it doesnt boot it,its a 2005 pc. | 15:32 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: ah - do you remember which ubuntu version you have on there? | 15:33 |
| AlexPortable | hmm i need something i can compare | 15:33 |
| webb1wd | daftykins: yes 14.04 | 15:33 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: good stuff. | 15:33 |
| daftykins | webb1wd: i'll be back shortly, if you're ready in the meantime just ask the channel that you want to compare UUIDs to /etc/fstab if you need more assistance :) | 15:34 |
| squinty | webb1wd: fwiw, if your unit won't boot from usb then you might consider burning a "plop" cd which when booted first will allow the computer to boot from usb. http://www.plop.at/en/home.html | 15:34 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | hi guys, having problems with sama | 15:35 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | samba* | 15:35 |
| webb1wd | squinty: wow!thanks very much i never knew about that ill certainly try it. | 15:36 |
| SchrodingersScat | my problem with samba is normally windows | 15:36 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | i think it's ubuntu in this case actually | 15:36 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | i have a share set up using the built-in nautilus local network share tool on my LAN | 15:36 |
| acerspyro | Pinkie_Pylon: Ask a real question, not an affirmation | 15:36 |
| AlexPortable | daftykins: http://img.nl.eu.org/EiYUpW.png | 15:37 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | well, can I link my askubuntu question? | 15:37 |
| AlexPortable | left = ubuntu, right = windows | 15:37 |
| AlexPortable | there is some blur over ubuntu | 15:37 |
| acerspyro | AlexPortable: Emulator? | 15:37 |
| acerspyro | You could have said it, that's why, it's in no way Ubuntu'S fault. | 15:37 |
| ansivirus | AlexPortable, not gonna lie, I don't really see blur.. | 15:38 |
| acerspyro | Neither do I | 15:38 |
| AlexPortable | what do you mean emulator? | 15:38 |
| daftykins | AlexPortable: it's a different level of sub pixel rendering, look into whether you can tweak it. i have no idea | 15:38 |
| AlexPortable | the left it's not sharp | 15:38 |
| acerspyro | If you like, you can change the antialiasing style for the font | 15:38 |
| AlexPortable | while the text on the right is | 15:38 |
| acerspyro | Depends on your monitor. | 15:39 |
| bahax | hi, is there a way to make apt-get tell me from which source it's going to install a specific package? | 15:39 |
| AlexPortable | acerspyro: well, i made a screenshot on windows, and one on ubuntu, and then moved them to the same machine | 15:39 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | here is my question http://askubuntu.com/questions/543634/problems-with-folder-permissions-using-samba | 15:39 |
| AlexPortable | so how does that depends on my monitor or system? | 15:39 |
| OerHeks | i guess that window is buzy, AlexPortable, just be patient | 15:39 |
| AlexPortable | buzy? | 15:39 |
| acerspyro | AlexPortable: Ok, still, all you have to do is change your font antialiasing style | 15:39 |
| daftykins | AlexPortable: myself and acerspyro have already told you what's up. | 15:40 |
| AlexPortable | acerspyro: how? | 15:40 |

| acerspyro | look at that GUI, it's in the Compiz settings menu | 15:41 |
| daftykins | Pinkie_Pylon: did you create this other user prior to creating an smb password for it? | 15:41 |
| P-NuT | Anyone getting this? http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7801 | 15:42 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | shouldn't have to on 14.04 IIRC but yes, it's a unix user with the same password as the smb user | 15:42 |
| daftykins | Pinkie_Pylon: and none of these systems are in homegroups on Windows? those break things | 15:42 |
| OerHeks | P-NuT, CentOS is not supported here. | 15:42 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | checking the logs for the second user I'm getting permission denied when they tried to access the folder, which is hosted in /media/james/shared | 15:43 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | what command can I use to give everyone read and write access to that folder? | 15:43 |
| daftykins | Pinkie_Pylon: you've added both users to a group, chown'd that path to the group and allowed relevant permissions yes? | 15:43 |
| AlexPortable | acerspyro: greyscale / rgb doesn't really matters | 15:44 |
| acerspyro | AlexPortable: try other options | 15:44 |
| acerspyro | *checks what Windows is using* | 15:44 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | daftykins, i'm a bit crap with unix so bear with me. the unix user is in the group sambashare | 15:44 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | i'm just wondering if there is a unix command I can give to allow everyone access to the /shared folder | 15:44 |
| daftykins | Pinkie_Pylon: pastebin the output of "ls -al /path/shared" | 15:45 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | this is on a home LAN anyway so not much risk | 15:45 |

| geirha | Pinkie_Pylon: add all users you consider "everyone" to that group. Do NOT make it world writable | 15:45 |
| daftykins | first off stop saying unix :P, second - it'd be samba that can share as guest only, not permissions | 15:45 |
| rashkov | Anyone know what purpose dnsmasq serves in Ubuntu? It seems like it could be used as a DHCP server or for DNS caching. However DHCP isn't configured and its DNS cache is turned off.

| AlexPortable | when installing ubuntu, do i have to choose UEFI or BIOS? | 15:48 |
| daftykins | Pinkie_Pylon: yeah so you've got a permission and group mess there | 15:48 |
| acerspyro | AlexPortable: Depends on your BIOS type | 15:48 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | thought as much, resulted from failed attempts to grant access | 15:49 |
| acerspyro | Newer computers usually use UEFI | 15:49 |
| acerspyro | if you don't pick the right one, it usually won't boot | 15:49 |

| acerspyro | average: lol | 15:49 |

| OerHeks | !uefi | 15:53 |
| ubottu | 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.

| acerspyro | OerHeks: ty | 15:54 |
| daftykins | Pinkie_Pylon: what i just said above. | 15:54 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | daftykins, so do I leave the user blank? just do sudo chown -R :sambashare /path | 15:54 |

| AlexPortable | yes | 16:34 |
| AlexPortable | but it asks me for mount point | 16:34 |
| lancelot_of | no suggestions for me? | 16:34 |
| jee1mr | AlexPortable: Select the type as swap. And give it as 2-4 fb | 16:34 |
| AlexPortable | why only 4 gb? | 16:35 |
| jee1mr | AlexPortable: It's swap. | 16:35 |
| AlexPortable | I have 8 gb internal ram | 16:35 |
| jee1mr | Ok.. Then select 8gb. It doesn't matter, I guess. | 16:36 |
| sacarlson | frodopwns: microsoft exchange can be imported into gmail, ms exchange uses standard imap or pop3 format that gmail can handle | 16:37 |
| jee1mr | AlexPortable: After swap is done, create a new parition with filesystem type ext4 and mount point as "/" | 16:37 |

| sacarlson | Pinkie_Pylon: seems I see the permisions of what is insided shares but not what the directory it self is set to | 16:45 |

| sacarlson | Pinkie_Pylon: ok | 16:46 |
| sacarlson | Pinkie_Pylon: and no user can see it from samba? | 16:47 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | sacarlson, one user can see the shared folder and access it and write to it etc | 16:47 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | the other one can only see it and can't access it through windows without getting permission denied | 16:47 |
| sacarlson | Pinkie_Pylon: I'm not sure. makes more sense if windows could read it but not write it, but it an view directory but can't read or write files | 16:50 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | no | 16:50 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | it can't view the directory either | 16:50 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | it can see it in Network>\\SERVER in windows explorer | 16:50 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | there's a folder in there called "shared" | 16:50 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | and I can access and have full perms from one account on one machine | 16:51 |
| Pinkie_Pylon | and i can still see it, but can't open it or write to it on the other machine using the other user account | 16:51 |

| Guest53052 | My situation in case anyone might care: I bought a GTX970. It needed a new driver to function. I installed the Nvidia one. After that, I could no longer get Xorg to show anything but a black screen. Tried lots of things. Gave up. Upgraded to 14.10. Installed latest Nvidia driver right away. Good for one boot, worked as it should. Shut down, started up, black screen. I took the card out and tried to use the onboard, still black screen. | 17:12 |

| lotuspsychje | sacarlson: tnx for checking | 17:13 |
| fux8989 | hi everyone :) | 17:13 |
| Guest53052 | But I'm not sure if Xorg even knows it's supposed to use the onboard graphics. I don't know how to tell it to do that. I tried editing xorg.conf, but I'm not sure it does anything. Changing the driver to intel or vesa does nothing it seems. | 17:13 |

| lotuspsychje | sacarlson: makes sense | 17:14 |
| sacarlson | lotuspsychje: yes and I also note that the cups app is seen in /etc/init the new upstart method | 17:15 |

| squinty | webb1wd: maybe bring up Disks and see if it will mount from there | 17:48 |
| bubbasaures | webb1wd, From a live if still there it should show in it's home, you would have to chroot to it, or root the fstab mount to change, easier done on a booted OS, does it boot? | 17:49 |
| webb1wd | bubbasaures: it is booting but then im getting something that http://i.stack.imgur.com/hTLuo.jpg except that dev/mapper/... isnt there on my it says something with uuid which is the hdd id. | 17:49 |

| ki7mt | hello all, I'm at remote locate trying to fix a dualboot laptop Debian 7 / Ubuntu 14.04 Debian boots ok, but the Ubuntu image keeps dumping into a low graphics error screen. Whenever I try to update grub ( I suspect the UUID is hosed up in fstab), fsck just hangs up. Theres also an error on the boot splash stating the UUID is not mounted yet. Any Ideas how to resolve this? | 18:15 |
| haidora | help how to launch network-manager from terminal? | 18:16 |
| bubbasaures | ki7mt, Updating grub wont change the graphics. | 18:16 |
| webb1wd | bubbasaures: i will have quick access the other pc is slow with mozilla cause it live cd. | 18:17 |
| ki7mt | bubbasaures, Yes, I know, but I can't get into a r/w partition as the fsck keeps hangin up, so I thought updateing grub may fix that, but wasn't sure. | 18:17 |
| daftykins | ki7mt: are you fsck'ing from a live session? | 18:17 |
| daftykins | ki7mt: have you checked the disk is ok from its' SMART info? | 18:18 |
| ki7mt | daftykins, No, I dont have access to a CD here. | 18:18 |
| daftykins | ki7mt: ok i would not try and fsck via this means. you need bootable media | 18:18 |
| daftykins | or do it from debian | 18:18 |
| ki7mt | daftykins, ok, well I can boot int the Debian side just fine if that helps. | 18:19 |
| daftykins | ki7mt: ok, it'd be nice to confirm the disk is healthy before proceeding with the fsck. | 18:19 |
| Filthy | if you are going to fsck with debian wear a jiffy | 18:20 |
| ki7mt | daftykins, Ok, how to proceed ? /dev/sda1 is Debian, sev/sda3 is ubuntu and /dev/sda5 is swap | 18:20 |
| daftykins | that's not helpful, Filthy. | 18:20 |
| ki7mt | .. /dev/sda3 .. | 18:20 |

| givello | I finally found a way to get the system to output the errors encountered during boot | 18:21 |
| AlexPortable | Why isn't screencloud in the repos anymore? | 18:21 |
| givello | Which necessitated a removal of $vthandoff and adding text --verbose nomodeset nosplash in the boot line | 18:21 |
| givello | And the result is that it stops right after printing loading initial ramdisk | 18:22 |
| ki7mt | daftykins, Ok, installing | 18:22 |

| zymm | Ello Ubuntu. Anyone got any time to help me with wineasio? | 19:13 |
| Seveas | they can take the battery out, or press the power button | 19:13 |
| nuke1989 | anyone familiar with cssh ? Or generally with operating many VMs with different passwords? | 19:14 |
| bekks | nuke1989: Whats the problem with that? | 19:14 |
| Seveas | nuke1989: try salt instead of ssh | 19:14 |
| kasunbg | bubbasaures, ok.. i probably don't have to do `apt-get autoremove`.. since it asks to remove some packages i love dearly. | 19:15 |
| nuke1989 | well i am controlling around 18 VMs and i loging 3 times each day typing the exact commands. Problem is every VM has different password. And it takes time.... | 19:15 |
| nuke1989 | i will check salt | 19:16 |
| bekks | nopf: Use key based auth then. | 19:16 |
| pdcmoreira | hello | 19:16 |
| AlexPortable | Seveas: battery can't be taken out. power button does nothing | 19:16 |
| nuke1989 | bekks, i cant....Big story... | 19:16 |
| bekks | nuke1989: So you have to type in the passwords. | 19:17 |
| nuke1989 | i wonder if cssh or something similar can take passwords from a file | 19:17 |
| bubbasaures | kasunbg, Sometimes they are removed, if 3rd party...etc, problem here is that really you have not provided enough detail to really help. Had you come on here before, mots would say fresh install. | 19:17 |
| OerHeks | zymm, for wine issues you better join #winehq | 19:17 |
| nuke1989 | bekks, yes | 19:17 |
| bubbasaures | most* | 19:17 |
| bekks | nuke1989: Taking the password from a files is "key based auth". | 19:17 |
| kasunbg | bubbasaures, yea.. i don't which error log i shud point u to.. the /var/log/dpkg.log doesn't seems to be useful :( | 19:18 |
| nuke1989 | bekks, doesnt key based auth need changes on the VMs ? | 19:18 |
| nopf | bekks: yes, that's best in most cases :) | 19:18 |
| bekks | nuke1989: you need to tell each VM to accept your specific key, yes. | 19:18 |
| bubbasaures | kasunbg, I can't really sieve out the truth here on your issues, ;) maybe others can. | 19:19 |
| kasunbg | bubbasaures, i will probably try a restart tomorrow, and do a fresh install if it giving me trouble at the cost all my configurations | 19:19 |
| nuke1989 | bekks, problem is that the VMs reset every day... | 19:19 |
| kasunbg | bubbasaures, sure thing.. thanks anyway.. | 19:19 |
| bekks | nuke1989: So change the template where those vms are recreated from. | 19:19 |

| noobieneedshelp | I need to use 8.10 | 20:10 |
| noobieneedshelp | I don't want anything else | 20:10 |
| bekks | noobieneedshelp: It is unsupported. | 20:11 |
| noobieneedshelp | I just want to move the drivers from my live usb to my system | 20:11 |
| noobieneedshelp | how can I do that? | 20:11 |
| noobieneedshelp | which folders? | 20:11 |
| Sheepolution | Hey there. I screwed up my Ubuntu quite a lot and stuff isn't working that I want to work. And reinstalling is probably the easiest and fastest way to fix all this. | 20:11 |
| DJones | noobieneedshelp: That won;t happen, 8.01 isn't supported for about 2-3 years | 20:12 |
| Sheepolution | Now the reinstallation page says: it is possible to reinstall Ubuntu without losing the content of the /home folder | 20:12 |
| noobieneedshelp | ffs | 20:12 |
| bekks | Sheepolution: Only if /home is on a separate filesystem. | 20:12 |
| noobieneedshelp | If I wanted to move drivers from my live usb to my system in 14.04 | 20:12 |
| noobieneedshelp | how would I do that? | 20:12 |
| noobieneedshelp | would I move a folder? | 20:12 |
| noobieneedshelp | is there an application for it? | 20:12 |
| bekks | noobieneedshelp: You dont have 14.04. And you cant "move drivers" that way. | 20:12 |
| bekks | noobieneedshelp: You have to install a supported release. | 20:13 |
| noobieneedshelp | why? | 20:13 |
| Sheepolution | bekks: Oh? The page doesn't say that: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuReinstallation | 20:13 |
| bekks | noobieneedshelp: Because 8.10 is unsupported. | 20:13 |
| noobieneedshelp | I have to use 8.10 because the drivers have not been updated for a supported release | 20:13 |
| noobieneedshelp | there is no other option | 20:13 |
| OerHeks | drivers for what? | 20:13 |
| noobieneedshelp | my 56k modem | 20:13 |
| noobieneedshelp | the last supported kernel was 2.6.27-7 | 20:14 |
| Sheepolution | But it's a bit vague for me what files I keep and not. | 20:14 |
| DJones | noobieneedshelp: You'll nedd to contact your modem supplier | 20:14 |
| noobieneedshelp | doesn't exist anymore | 20:14 |
| Sheepolution | And I'm afraid that I will keep files that might be the ones causing the problems. | 20:14 |
| noobieneedshelp | they merged with another company | 20:14 |
| noobieneedshelp | and no longer offer support | 20:14 |
| noobieneedshelp | the driver works on my live usb | 20:14 |
| noobieneedshelp | I just want to move it | 20:14 |
| bekks | noobieneedshelp: Thats too bad, but it doesnt make your 8.10 being supported. | 20:14 |

| solars | hi, does anyone know how to get more than 30hz with 2560x1440 over HDMI with an intel graphics hd 4400? | 20:54 |
| popey | solars: dont you need dual dvi for that? | 20:54 |
| solars | popey, well I got 30hz working | 20:54 |
| solars | popey, but I have no clue and it's a laptop with only hdmi | 20:54 |
| popey | solars: pretty sure it needs dual dvi to get higher bandwidth.. i may be wrong | 20:55 |
| popey | solars: from googling it looks like that video card doesn't support it | 20:55 |
| popey | solars: e.g. https://communities.intel.com/thread/30360 | 20:55 |
| solars | popey, I found this: http://www.notebookcheck.net/2560x1440-or-2560x1600-via-HDMI.92840.0.html | 20:56 |
| popey | "Intel graphics does not support dual-link, therefore 1920x1200 is the maximum for DVI and HDMI, 2560x1440 is only possible with a displayport port" | 20:56 |
| solars | well I currently run 2560x1440@30hz | 20:56 |

| solars | popey, there is also the option with 50 as written in the link I posted | 20:57 |
| solars | but I'm not sure if that's only for the hd 4000 | 20:57 |
| popey | Xaphod2: sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic | 20:57 |
| Xaphod2 | thanks will try that | 20:57 |
| popey | np | 20:57 |
| popey | Xaphod2: the upgrade _should_ have updated to that | 20:58 |
| popey | Xaphod2: you may want to also run "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^" to see if there's anything else missing (assumiung you use unity based ubuntu and not kubuntu/xubuntu etc) | 20:58 |
| Xaphod2 | I think i might have uninstalled the generic, in favor for a specific 3.14.x, because there was some 3.14.x update that didn’t work for me | 20:58 |
| popey | Xaphod2: note that hat ^ | 20:58 |
| popey | that might have done it, yes | 20:59 |
| Xaphod2 | thanks ok will check that. What does the carat mean? | 20:59 |

| Logicwrath | im confushed about hostnames, should i use ubuntu or ubuntu.domain.net when i am asked during installation, i plan on having it resolve from an A record | 21:05 |
| popey | you can use either and modify it later | 21:05 |
| popey | its not crucial to set the hostname in stone during install | 21:05 |
| Faultier | i'm just wondering why ubuntu hasn´t xchat pre-installed like Mint | 21:06 |
| popey | Faultier: most users dont use irc | 21:06 |
| bekks | Logicwrath: the hostname is "yourhostname" and the full qualified domain name is "yourhostname.domain.tld" | 21:06 |
| popey | (strange though that seems) | 21:06 |
| Logicwrath | to be clear, during installation it is requesting hostname and not fqdn | 21:06 |
| Logicwrath | so i should skip the fqdn during install? | 21:07 |
| popey | Logicwrath: i generally just put hostname, and modify after. | 21:07 |
| popey | Logicwrath: you can, yes. | 21:07 |
| bekks | Logicwrath: Actually it is just requesting a hostname. | 21:07 |
| popey | it will work fine, you can modify it after | 21:07 |
| compdoc | is it better to define a fqdn during install? | 21:07 |
| popey | it doesnt matter | 21:07 |
| bekks | compdoc: It doesnt matter :) | 21:07 |
| Faultier | Popey What do you mean most users dont use irc in ubuntu, what do they use instead? | 21:07 |
| popey | takes 2 mins to change later | 21:07 |
| popey | Faultier: most Ubuntu users don't use IRC at all | 21:07 |

| needhelp | Hi | 21:48 |
| needhelp | I need some help with this tutorial: http://askubuntu.com/questions/113588/install-from-persistent-liveusb-including-files-changes-on-casper-rw | 21:48 |
| Semajnad | del_: I've put them in a group called server-admins, then chmod 774 /home/shared-files, but they still can not create directories inside shared-files. Should server-admins be those users primary group? | 21:48 |
| quitte | RaMcHiP-Mobile: how do you do the testing? here i see that it reacts to touch but i have no idea if the coordinates match anything | 21:48 |
| Semajnad | If I do chmod 777 they can, so to me that seems like they are not part of the group? | 21:49 |
| needhelp | I can't figure out how to move my persistent usb's files onto a new install | 21:49 |
| quitte | i think iut even got worse after putting the snippet in the config file | 21:49 |

| a4 | hi guys, I've started aptitude and I saw 40 security updates. I would like to perform only security update, but after I press u, the amount of security updates keeps the same. What I'm doing wrong | 21:50 |
| a4 | ? | 21:50 |
| blaaa | a4: you need to install them | 21:51 |
| quitte | Nothing_Much: the psu powers more than just the gpu. and the wattage is combined of all rails. so unless you have plenty... | 21:51 |
| OerHeks | it does what you want, security update only, so install those 40 | 21:51 |
| a4 | I know, and I also trying. but somehow I do something wrong. I press u, but that doesn't help | 21:52 |

| Nothing_Much | So I can assume either 65W or 120W | 21:56 |
| jcgs | del_: yeah but that was 12.04 :P | 21:56 |
| quitte | Nothing_Much: if someone tells you that you need "at least this" it means any less and you're screwed | 21:56 |
| Nothing_Much | That the Core i7 would take up | 21:56 |

| Semajnad | del_: Does KRDC have server software then? | 22:00 |
| === MeltedDed is now known as MeltedLux | ||
| Semajnad | del_: KRDC just seems to connect to the server, doesn't actually let you login with multiple sessions or does it? | 22:01 |
| === testBOT is now known as Guest83027 | ||
| del_ | Semajnad: You may just want vnc (session based?) If so you can use tightvnc and/or x11vnc | 22:02 |
| Semajnad | del_: I thought VNC wasn't session based? It just connects to whatever the server is on at the time of connecting? | 22:03 |
| RaMcHiP-Mobile | Grrrr | 22:03 |
| RaMcHiP-Mobile | all I need to do is swap axis on this and its perfect | 22:03 |
| Semajnad | del_: I want it so when you login, it asks for your ubuntu login details and then creates a session for you? | 22:03 |
| Semajnad | del_: So more then one person can be logged in at once. | 22:03 |
| RaMcHiP-Mobile | when I touch middle of screen its dead on but goes exact oppisite of whatever direction I go so its 180' out of phase | 22:03 |

| del_ | omosoj: We hope you remember it. | 22:06 |
| Semajnad | del_: So will x11vnc let users connecting have their own sessions, and ask for linux login details? | 22:06 |
| del_ | Semajnad: Or not... | 22:06 |
| omosoj | del_, never set one | 22:06 |
| del_ | Semajnad: default for x11vnc is no password, but you set it up as you see fit. | 22:06 |
| Semajnad | del_: But doesn't VNC just haave a general VNC password, or can you set it up so it asks for a ubuntu username and password? | 22:07 |
| del_ | Semajnad: Choice is yours | 22:07 |
| jcgs | omosoj: what is the error message? | 22:07 |
| del_ | omosoj: Password recovery is not something we can help you with. | 22:08 |
| Oxymore | hello there, i have an issue when updating some php packages, here is my dpkg output https://gist.github.com/anonymous/0c93ada6ecc3d4086b88 , does anyone have a clue | 22:09 |
| Nothing_Much | I really need help with my gpu | 22:10 |
| omosoj | unlock private key. enter password to unlock private key. an application wants access to the private key '<email address>' but it is locked. | 22:10 |
| omosoj | jcgs ^ | 22:10 |
| jcgs | omosoj: what were you expecting? just to be asked the plain text password for the user account? | 22:10 |
| del_ | Semajnad: x11vmc will let anyone connect. (So it is best to only turn it on when you need it, and yes, it is best to set a password, but if there are no untrusted users on your network, just leave it open. Again, the choice is yours. | 22:11 |
| omosoj | jcgs, not sure what i was expecting. i'm not an expert... i was trying to clone a repo from bitbucket... created a key etc, then got this error. (never have a problem with github) | 22:12 |
| Semajnad | del_: I think I'm not explaining myself well. I want a way to connect to the Ubuntu GUI, so multiple users can be connected to the server at once. I want it so when you connect, it asks for your Ubuntu Login, not a general password. It will then load the user into their account. | 22:12 |
| popey | Nothing_Much: you need to be more specific | 22:12 |
| del_ | Semajnad: You can ssh in and run it for one session, connect and after that it goes away. x11vnc by itself is for only one session, x11vnc -forever is for continued use. | 22:12 |
| omosoj | jcgs, but instead of downloading into the terminal, a window pops up with that message | 22:12 |
| Semajnad | del_: But will it ask you for your ubuntu login, or just a general password. And can more then one person be connected to x11vnc at once?> | 22:12 |
| Semajnad | del_: Doing different things? | 22:13 |
| omosoj | there are lot of people on google who have the problem, but haven't found a solution | 22:13 |
| del_ | Semajnad: Linux Terminal Server may be more like what you are looking for. | 22:13 |
| Oxymore | omosoj it's because your key is password protected, when you created it you must have set a password and forgot it | 22:14 |
| Semajnad | del_: I'll look that up thanks. | 22:14 |
| Semajnad | del_: So that would be like virtualisation? | 22:14 |
| del_ | Semajnad: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP | 22:14 |
| Oxymore | omosoj if you don't use your key for anything else that github, just remove it and create a new one, if you set a passphrase don't forget it :) | 22:15 |
| del_ | !ltsp | 22:15 |
| ubottu | LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project, which adds thin-client support to Linux servers. See chapter 3 of the !edubuntuhandbook, http://www.ltsp.org and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Terminal_Server_Project | 22:15 |
| omosoj | Oxymore, are you sure? | 22:15 |
| Oxymore | 99.5% | 22:15 |
| omosoj | heh. i was going to say i was 99% sure i didn't put a password | 22:16 |
| del_ | omosoj: That is because there is no solution. | 22:16 |
| Oxymore | osomoj save your old key somewhere, and generate a new one, pay attention if ssh-keygen ask you to set a passphrase | 22:17 |
| jcgs | omosoj: this gnome-keyring thing sounds like a pain in the butt (pardon my french)...here is a suggestion grabbed from internet forum: sudo gconftool-2 --set -t bool /apps/gnome-keyring/daemon-components/ssh false | 22:17 |
| del_ | omosoj: If you use keyring and set a password and do not remember it there is not much we can do about it. (Nor you for that matter.) | 22:17 |
| omosoj | jcgs, what's that do? | 22:17 |
| Oxymore | anyway, does anybody can help me with that crazy apt-get who won't upgrade my packages? :( | 22:17 |
| jcgs | omosoj: look here...http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1008797 but i haven't tested it | 22:17 |
| del_ | Oxymore: sudo apt-get -f install | 22:18 |
| Oxymore | del_ already tried, same problem | 22:18 |
| omosoj | del_, thank you for your help but i'm skeptical of you and your dour attitude. | 22:18 |

| cristian_c | Hello | 22:19 |
| Oxymore | del_ https://gist.github.com/anonymous/0c93ada6ecc3d4086b88 | 22:19 |
| cristian_c | I've got a multimedia keyboard | 22:19 |
| cristian_c | either /lib/udev/findkeyboards and sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/eventX commands, pressing multimedia keys does nothing | 22:19 |
| Oxymore | that's a dpkg output, but it's the same as the apt-get one | 22:19 |
| cristian_c | same situation with sudo evtest | 22:19 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 22:19 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: can you try just configuring php-cli on it's own as that is the one which is failing...are you even interested in that package? | 22:20 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: correction there are three that are failing | 22:20 |
| omosoj | jcgs, didn't work :/ | 22:21 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: unfortunately, all the log says is that a subprocess exited with status 1. That could mean absolutely anything... to find out what's actually wrong you'll need some more detail | 22:21 |
| Oxymore | jcgs indeed, but I can't put my finger on why they are failing, I even purged them, no difference | 22:21 |
| Oxymore | jcgs yeah, that's kind of the issue, I can't find any logs anywhere | 22:22 |
| Oxymore | i know it's in the postinst scripts, but no idea what's actually crashing | 22:22 |
| del_ | Oxymore: sudo dpkg-reconfigure libapache2-mod-php | 22:23 |
| del_ | Oxymore: (in other words, try doing them individually...) | 22:24 |
| Oxymore | del_ i'll try that | 22:25 |
| del_ | Oxymore: I left off the 5 (libapache2-mod-php5) | 22:26 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: apparently the script lives in /var/lib/dpkg/info/<package>.postinst | 22:27 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: you can run it manually from there and see what it says | 22:27 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: in theory all postinst scripts are required to be written in a way which means that runnning them multiple times is not harmful, but it might be worth trying to undertand what it is attempting to do first by reading it | 22:28 |
| Oxymore | jcgs I already tried that, but I've some dpkg related error poping up when I do | 22:29 |
| Oxymore | I fully purged php5 packages again and I'm trying to install from a ppa, maybe that'll do it | 22:29 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: anything helpful? did the script exit with status 1 (the status can be checked by running echo $? after the script in bash) | 22:30 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: you will have to run <script> configure btw | 22:31 |
| Oxymore | jcgs sorry i went dark, full purge + reinstall from ppa:ondrej/php5 fixed the problem | 22:36 |
| omosoj | Oxymore, if i want to remove and create a new key, i should just delete the files in .ssh and redo the process? | 22:36 |
| omosoj | ssh-keygen etc... | 22:36 |
| obounaim | Is there a good tool to manage updates for multiple Ubuntu/debian serveurs? | 22:36 |
| obounaim | thanks | 22:36 |
| Oxymore | omosoj yes, but don't hard delete the old one, save it somewhere, just in case | 22:37 |
| omosoj | k, thanks | 22:37 |
| jcgs | Oxymore: no worries | 22:38 |
| jcgs | my sound has magically fixed itself somehow so I'm all set :) | 22:38 |

| === photon1 is now known as Demon-Terminal | ||
| solsTiCe | hi. Anyone knows why I have 2 entries called ubuntu in grub2 ? one is with a capital Ubuntu and boots windows (yeah !) and the other one ubuntu without capital boots ubuntu. | 23:12 |
| k1l | newASonline: its a AGP card? | 23:12 |
| === Gr1zzly- is now known as Gr1zzly | ||
| newASonline | yap | 23:12 |
| ki7mt | Airbander, Also: https://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 23:12 |
| k1l | newASonline: well, i think that old cards are not supported by amd anymore. so i suggest to use the free driver as you do now | 23:13 |
| newASonline | yes.. that would be ok.. but.. than i may not restart :-S and use only live version from now on? | 23:14 |
| newASonline | seriusly?? | 23:14 |
| k1l | newASonline: what? | 23:15 |
| k1l | why that? | 23:15 |
| newASonline | exactly.. | 23:15 |
| newASonline | i use live version.. | 23:15 |
| k1l | newASonline: can you please describe the whole issue? | 23:15 |
| newASonline | right now.. fresh install | 23:15 |
| Bashing-om | newASonline: AMD has dropped support for that card, you are running the open source driver that does support that grahics card. Is there a specific problem now ? | 23:16 |
| newASonline | after update.. black screen.. i understand no more support for graphic's.. but.. is there a way to get update's, but to not update graphic's? | 23:16 |
| AcIdBaTh | hey guys im trying to create a mac os usb with ubuntu 14.10. | 23:16 |
| solsTiCe | ... and the windows entry does not boot windows. it gives an error ! | 23:16 |
| newASonline | running 12.04.4 lts.. live version - fresh installed | 23:17 |
| newASonline | i fi reboot got black screen.. "updates" | 23:17 |
| k1l | AcIdBaTh: see mac support if they actually allow to be macOS run on usb. | 23:17 |
| newASonline | if i* | 23:17 |
| AcIdBaTh | yeah cause converting the .dmg to .img and using unetbooting dont work | 23:18 |
| k1l | newASonline: so to sum that up: after installation you get a black screen while it works on live-system? | 23:18 |
| newASonline | yap | 23:18 |
| k1l | AcIdBaTh: that is more a problem of the OS (mac OS) instead of ubuntu | 23:18 |
| k1l | !nomodeset | newASonline try that one. | 23:19 |
| ubottu | newASonline try that one.: A 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 parameter | 23:19 |
| newASonline | because.. no more support for graphic's as i understand.. | 23:19 |
| AcIdBaTh | ive been searching and cant find anything. The hdd messed up n the only other computer i have is on ubuntu | 23:19 |
| k1l | newASonline: no more support for the propritary driver from ati/amd. but there should be support from the open-source community driver | 23:19 |
| k1l | newASonline: so: fglrx=nono, radeon=yes | 23:19 |
| k1l | AcIdBaTh: sorry, but we cant help you with thet macOS issue. | 23:20 |
| newASonline | em.. engleash? | 23:20 |
| newASonline | k1l | 23:20 |
| AcIdBaTh | thats cool. Thanx anyway. | 23:20 |
| k1l | newASonline: you have 2 different drivers. fglrx is the amd one, radeon is the free community one. radeon sould work. | 23:21 |
| newASonline | em.. ok? can u guide me to the process? | 23:22 |
| newASonline | please? | 23:22 |
| newASonline | sorry, 4 being complete newb.. | 23:22 |
| newASonline | one question.. | 23:22 |
| k1l | i dont know amd cards. but i would suggest to try nomodeset as kernel parameter. which the bot told you | 23:23 |
| newASonline | nevermind | 23:23 |
| newASonline | so what exactly do i need to do? | 23:24 |
| Mendax1 | what is the deal? | 23:24 |
| Mendax1 | havent been on this channel in a long time | 23:25 |
| Blaster | Anyone here done VT-d with QEMU and KVM? | 23:25 |
| ikonia | Mendax1: it's exactly the same as it always is, ubuntu support discussion | 23:25 |
| k1l | !nomodeset | newASonline | 23:25 |
| ubottu | newASonline: A 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 parameter | 23:25 |
| Mendax1 | what do you think about ubunut over all? | 23:25 |
| Mendax1 | i think that it maybe likened to spyware | 23:26 |
| ikonia | then you are wrong | 23:26 |
| ikonia | and if you think that don't use it | 23:26 |
| manuelperrotta | hello everybody | 23:26 |
| Mendax1 | why shouldnt i think that if i look at the OS objectively? | 23:27 |
| ikonia | you can think that | 23:27 |
| ikonia | and the best answer is to use a different OS | 23:27 |
| k1l | Mendax1: do you have an actual support issue? for chatting we hav #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:27 |
| ikonia | not really anything to do with this channel, | 23:27 |
| Mendax1 | why the millitancy> | 23:27 |
| newASonline | k1l.. ? sorry, but what? grub is boot, right? | 23:27 |
| ikonia | there is no millitancy | 23:27 |
| ikonia | you're miss-informed | 23:28 |
| Mendax1 | ill-informed rather | 23:28 |
| ikonia | you're welcome to change that opinion, however if you don't want to, the best answer is to use a different OS | 23:28 |
| ikonia | ok, you're ill-informed | 23:28 |
| ikonia | but the situation is the same | 23:28 |
| k1l | Mendax1: because you start with a lie? you have been here 3 days ago. | 23:28 |
| FreeStyle | How can I change the icon size of notification area in gnome 3.4? I'm in a fallback session. | 23:28 |
| Mendax1 | excuse me | 23:28 |
| k1l | Mendax1: so dont spoil this channel. stick to the rules. keep it clear for ubuntu support. thanks | 23:28 |
| Mendax1 | this is a valid point with reasons.. | 23:29 |
| ikonia | Mendax1: there is no valid point | 23:29 |
| ikonia | Mendax1: you think it's spyware, thats your opinion, fine, don't use it, | 23:29 |
| ikonia | nothing more to say on it | 23:29 |
| k1l | newASonline: yes. see the bots message and the link in it. it describes that | 23:29 |
| Mendax1 | this channel dose not give justice to IRC | 23:29 |
| Mendax1 | for what it means | 23:29 |
| ikonia | Mendax1: what do you want from this channel ? | 23:29 |
| manuelperrotta | yesss | 23:30 |
| newASonline | so.. do i need to reboot to fix that issue? | 23:31 |
| diegoaguilar | I stopped it as soon as I could and the writing zeros count was on 0% when I stopped it how could I try recover the partition and some files? | 23:31 |

| stikikko | nooooo | 23:41 |
| daftykins | stikikko: do you have a question? | 23:42 |
| xfy | I want to run a simple web server to debug http GET requests. I need the entire GET header request but using "python SimpleHTTPServer" and the like type of solution is only outputting certain request headers. How do I deal/display them all? | 23:43 |
| CCCFire | if i load ubuntu on usb stick, will i still be able to use the other files on the stick? | 23:43 |
| xfy | I need the RAW packet | 23:43 |
| daftykins | xfy: tcpdump | 23:44 |
| k1l | CCCFire: it will format that usb stick | 23:44 |
| xfy | daftykins, There is no verbose mode with any inbuilt httpd that I could display the raw packet? :P | 23:44 |
| daftykins | might be, but i'm just saying what i know for sure | 23:45 |
| xfy | I know. That is an ption hah | 23:45 |
| CCCFire | so will it still be usable as a flash drive? | 23:45 |
| xfy | I was just expecting to see the output | 23:46 |
| k1l | CCCFire: afterwards you can put files on it, too. yes | 23:46 |
| CCCFire | ok. | 23:46 |
| CCCFire | is it possible to switch my OS back and forth? | 23:47 |
| k1l | CCCFire: what do you mean? | 23:48 |
