[00:09] Seems a lot like the ol' Puppy version. Nice. [00:12] i didnt [00:12] puppy version for puppy peoples [00:12] lol [00:14] Now on some kind of Ubuntu in a n Apple. It works. [00:14] FAST. === Guest52547 is now known as jamesbdev [00:18] which parts get backported to lts releases? will the nex X and mesa get backported? if so, when? [00:19] Naphatul: kernel and x-stack. on the next point release [00:19] k1l, is there a schedule for that? [00:19] Naphatul: see enablement stack wiki page. the schedule is the schedule for the LTS release [00:20] !14.04 [00:20] Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Thar) was the 20th release of Ubuntu and is the latest !LTS version.

[00:23] ok graie [00:26] k1l, im using 12.04 [00:27] why didnt you upgrade [00:27] because Im on a VM [00:27] why do i need to upgrade? [00:27] upgrade what? [00:27] 12.04 is still in support. no need to joelmo dopie [00:27] VM? [00:27] I'm having trouble booting the LiveUsb, when I select either 'Install Ubuntu' or 'Try Ubuntu before Installing' it goes to a grey terminal without continuing. I've tried both 14.04 and 14.10. [00:29] k1l, so why in the world wont it install! [00:29] :( [00:29] dopie: i told you why [00:29] dopie: ok universe should be working [00:29] dopie: no, not that line [00:30] dopie: if you dont even read the answers, why do you even ask in here? [00:30] I did [00:30] hold on [00:30] dopie: is universe enabled? [00:30] dopie: see in system-settings -> software and updates [00:31] but ngrok is included in the ubuntu repos since 14.04 [00:31] im in 12.04 [00:32] If itsincluded in 14.04 im in 12.04 [00:32] I've installed 12.04 on the machine just fine before, and the USB works on other machines so I'm pretty lost as to where to go now [00:32] dopie: its included _since_ 14.04. you run 12.04 which is _before_14.04 [00:33] sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) universe" [00:33] ugh [00:33] dopie: .... [00:34] dopie: ok, maybe some other one can make it more clear to you. seems like i cant. good luck [00:34] k1l, thank you [00:38] i need to know what configuration are read by startx how do i do that? [00:39] CoC_towlie: dont use startx on ubuntu. start the lightdm, that will handle the xserver stuff for you [00:39] CoC_towlie: man startx [00:39] kil i don't even have lightdm installed [00:40] CoC_towlie: please explain your system and what you want to do [00:41] i started with ubuntu minimal i have xserver installed, also have xfce installed [00:41] then install lightdm [00:41] i want to try some other desktops... light xomonad [00:41] kil i am just starting with startxfce to go in to xfce [00:42] CoC_towlie: the man page for startx lists the config files it uses === ubuntu is now known as Guest22727 [00:44] somsip, yeah i was there, but /etc/X11/xinitrc only invoke the global Xsession file [00:45] somsip, then i followed it it sources all the session files in "$SYSSESSIONDIR" [00:45] CoC_towlie: I'm guessing the ~/.xinitrc can invoke the ~/.Xsession file? But you're into detail I can't help you with... [00:46] somsip, however I try to print that variable but get nothing === logan is now known as Guest89944 [00:46] just need you guys to give me a starting point. im trying to get the touch buttons on my 2in1 monitor/pc) (dell) to work. === That_random_guy is now known as plshelp [00:53] k1l, rofl what can i be doing wrong?! [00:53] http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/ngrok-client [00:54] dopie: i have answered that this will not work. but since you dont listen at all you can try the whole night [00:55] 14.10 package in 12.04 .. awesome [00:55] ok [00:55] so it doesnt work for me to install using packages? [00:56] exit [00:56] *all in one* i guess. [00:57] dopie: You have searched for packages that names contain ngrok-client in suite(s) precise, all sections, and all architectures. >> Sorry, your search gave no results . === tt_ is now known as Guest96951 [00:57] So I can install it using package manger [00:57] i downloaded the file [00:58] can sort of understand the nick [00:58] thats why i have it :) [00:58] dopie, you 'could try' sudo dpkg -i /path/to/your/downloaded/package.deb but sure it will get errors [00:59] dopie just upgrade, and you'll be fine [01:01] Hi all. [01:02] Anyone fancy letting me pick their brain quickly with some simple linux admin issues? [01:03] zeon98: just ask. [01:03] as long as it's ubuntu! [01:03] okay so here goes... [01:04] Im trying to allow acsess to a few users via ftp [01:04] but only allowing them read acsess. [01:04] why FTP? [01:04] meh i got it to work [01:04] thanks guys [01:04] :0 [01:05] would be better if i could allow dir1, dir2, dir3 as read only without full acsess. [01:06] no ideas? not touch screen, but the touch buttons like volume up down etc built into it [01:07] Whenever I plug in a (any) flash drive, it gets mounted read-only. How do I fix this? [01:07] zeon98: you would make the directories RO to the the user that the ftpd is running under [01:07] dm7freek: if you find the mount point, prob. /media/???/ [01:08] dm7freek: see dmesg why that is [01:08] k1l: just run 'dmesg' ? [01:08] zeon98: I've found it [01:09] once you have found the location, sudo chmod 775 -r /mount/location/* [01:09] should do it [01:10] zeon98: ahhh, if it's fat/ntfs then chmod isn't going to do anything... [01:10] zeon98: it's fat [01:10] dm7freek: i expected [01:11] 'FAT and annoying' ...not a good way to go thru life [01:11] Ah! really? you cant set permissions on fat file systems? [01:11] surely you can [01:12] FAT cannot have permissions [01:12] neither can NTFS [01:12] zeon98: I ran into an error trying to run your command before zykotick9 chimed in [01:12] dm7freek: so have you unmounted the device and tried a manual mount? [01:12] anyway [01:12] daftykins: no, think that will help? [01:12] Infact im sure i've done it. Depends on the user that mounted the drive in the first place? [01:13] dm7freek: yup [01:13] zeon98, not like linux permissions. [01:13] Whats the mount all command that newbies can use to get out of trouble? [01:14] is it something like [01:14] sudo mount -a [01:14] ??? [01:14] hi [01:14] zeon98: sorry, but you dont sound like you understand the things you say. please dont do advice where you dont know if it harms the user asking for help. thanks. [01:15] zeon98: mount -a re-reads the fstab. [01:15] zeon98: that reparses /etc/fstab , has nothing to do with getting out of trouble though [01:15] guys, how to get rid of this 3.13.0-39-generic [01:15] when i boot up with 3.13.0-39-generic , my screen won't come up [01:15] Sorry for that. [01:15] but when i boot with lower version, it is okay [01:15] can somone tell me how to get rid of 3.13.0-39-generic ? [01:15] you can't get rid, it'll just want to reinstall it constantly [01:15] i would prefer back to 3.13.0-37-generic [01:15] you can change your default [01:16] how to change the default? [01:16] i want this : 3.13.0-37-generic [01:16] !grub [01:16] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [01:16] daftykins: no go [01:16] just tell me man, i dont know much linux [01:16] dm7freek: what did you do specifically? [01:16] hulio: sorry, i can't hold hands. [01:17] hulio: sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.13.0-39-generic [01:17] EriC^^, superb, thanks man [01:17] big help [01:18] daftykins, your're such a * [01:18] it is done, let me reboot [01:18] lol. [01:18] not until next update surely? [01:19] kids today, no patience to learn. [01:20] daftykins: umount /path/to/mount then sudo mount /dev/sdg /path/to/ and i got: block device /dev/sdg is write-protected, mounting read-only then I did sudo mount -t fat /dev/sdg /path/to/ which didn't work neither did fat32 nor vfat [01:21] dm7freek: what about "sudo mount /dev/sdg /mount/path -o rw" [01:23] same result as sudo mount /dev/sdg /path/to/ [01:24] Hola! [01:24] hello? [01:24] hi [01:24] * sloantothebone wonders if anybody is alive [01:25] quit wondering ;P [01:25] I installed ubuntu a month ago [01:25] sloantothebone, the ask-to-ask protocol uses more bandwidth than the ask protocol. Please do not ask to ask. [01:25] I love it [01:26] what is ask-to-ask? [01:26] !ask [01:26] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [01:26] sloantothebone: very outdated proto [01:26] ok i hope i am not using too much bandwidth by chatting [01:27] sloantothebone: great [01:27] it prioritizes feelings over efficiency and induces vomit [01:27] * dm7freek lols while crying uncontrollably about stupid flash drives [01:28] * sloantothebone welcomes himself to ubuntu, since no one else will. [01:28] Have you ever heard of orbiter space flight simulator? [01:29] sloantothebone: nope === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i [01:30] daftykins: mount -w gives a different error, but doesn't fix anything [01:30] fwiw === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [01:31] dm7freek: what's the problem? [01:31] I followed this guide: http://www.namhuy.net/3106/install-vnc-server-ubuntu-14-04.html however the vncserver service doesn't start on boot. :\ When I run `sudo update-rc.d vncserver default` found here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/9382/how-can-i-configure-a-service-to-run-at-startup it says "System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/vncserver already exist." What am I doing wrong? [01:31] sloantothebone: is it a game? [01:31] it is more than a game [01:31] is a realistic space flight simulator, as in flying to the moon among other things [01:32] EriC^^: any flash drive I put into my comp gets mounted read-only === notzopsi is now known as zopsi [01:33] eric: delete the partition and add a new one with gparted, then your problem will be fixed [01:33] wait... all of your usb drives?? [01:33] sloantothebone: that's the funny part.... gparted won't run on my system [01:33] sloantothebone: ? [01:33] it installed fine, but won't run [01:34] sloantothebone: I only have 2 w me, but ya [01:34] dm7freek: all your usb drives though? [01:34] Weird. [01:34] dm7freek: ah well, bar a switch on the device that's write-protecting it, i'm out of ideas! [01:34] dm7freek: try fixparts on your usb [01:34] dm7freek: i recall it had a gpt error yesterday and maybe had stray gpt [01:34] * sloantothebone looks up usb problem on google [01:34] got it to mount! but operation not permitted and permission denied when sudo mv [01:35] EriC^^: I think that's exactly what tht error referred to, but I cn't get parted to bring it up again [01:35] * dm7freek sighs [01:35] dm7freek: sudo apt-get install fixparts [01:36] unable to locate [01:36] !info fixparts [01:36] Package fixparts does not exist in utopic [01:36] nevermind [01:36] it's already installed [01:36] type fixparts in a terminal === jq-_ is now known as jq- [01:37] that produced a warning, and now it wants an MBR command [01:37] As much as im a huge linux fan sometimes i fall on my face with it. [01:37] dm7freek: what was the warning [01:38] dm7freek: type sudo parted -l [01:38] 0xEE partition doesn't start on sector 1. This can cause problems in some OSes. [01:38] ok [01:38] And google just doesn't have the answers. No matter how hard you try. [01:38] runs fine [01:39] zeon98: irc pwns [01:39] dm7freek: what's it say about the disk? [01:39] zeon98: documentation does, though [01:39] EriC^^: pretty much normal, looking for anything in particular? it has an lba flag [01:39] Whats irc pwns dm7freek? [01:40] dm7freek: what's the partition table type [01:40] EriC^^: msdos [01:40] ok [01:40] zeon98: irc kicks ass [01:41] documention is only as good as your own knowleadge in my experience. [01:41] EriC^^: what if I write MBR partition table to disk and exit (w) in fixparts? [01:41] dm7freek: yeah give it a shot if it's an empty disk [01:42] Yeap, dm7freek, i've learnt more talking to people in irc than i could of ever done reading etc about linux. [01:42] EriC^^: Warning: the kernel is still using the old partition table. The new table will be used at the next reboot. [01:42] the kernel? [01:42] is that actual reboot or is it next mount? [01:42] must mean the OS [01:43] nevermind [01:44] dm7freek: try partprobe [01:44] Prob my knowleadge is BS with this stuff, but when it comes to mbr records. Theres a ubuntu boot disk designed to fix mbr boot issues [01:44] get that downloaded and burnt to a cd before your play with it. [01:45] dm7freek: try to create partitions [01:45] EriC^^: ok, well idk what's going on, but the file I needed to be on the flash drive got put there at some point, and I was able to copy it to my laptop (mbp which could read and write to the drive fine) [01:45] This link? [01:45] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [01:45] sudo cfdisk [01:46] I'm ok with that for now, and I need to go... I'll try a reboot and retry tomorrow [01:46] Does need net connection to work though. [01:47] EriC^^: thanks for all your help [01:47] everyone actually :) [01:48] Whilst im talking to people that really know what they are talking about, Im after a linux backup system. Not so much for data just for os imaging. === CoreIT84 is now known as corey84- [01:50] zeon98: clonezilla [01:51] Few different scenes, but mostly to backup a raspberry pi running a cups server. Every time it brakes i have to build it from scratch and it hurts reading the walk through guides each time [01:51] zeon98, clonezilla most definitely [01:51] oh so from an SD card [01:52] Yes, [01:52] zeon98, heck, you could just dd into a raw image [01:52] that wouldn't be very healthy for an SD card [01:52] then when it breaks, just dd the image back onto the sd card [01:52] to dd the image do you need to remove the sd card [01:52] yes [01:52] but it's a bad approach, don't do it [01:53] daftykins, why?> [01:53] because when you'd write back, you'd write the entire drive each time even if it were only 10% used [01:53] dd isn't good for any flash media? [01:53] that'd reduce the lifespan of the media. [01:53] daftykins, ah i see [01:53] not to mention take far longer [01:54] With one of my back up issues, the one with the Rpi. [01:54] Hi there. I'd like to get an up-to-date version of the ruby-build package for 12.04 LTS. How might I go about that ? [01:54] zeon98: It's dataless, so just write yourself good enough notes that you can restore the thing from scratch in your sleep. [01:54] all it does is run a cups server so my family can print from their ipads [01:55] to many steps Loshki. [01:55] And one small mistake in the build stops the cups server working. [01:56] there has to be some method for duplcating ssd cards === plshelp is now known as Bill_Nye_The_Sci [01:57] If i could build it, check that it is working and then image the sd card. tbh they are so cheap i could have a few built and next time it goes wrong i could just switch them out. === Bill_Nye_The_Sci is now known as plshelp [01:57] yeah SD cards don't cost anything [01:57] I'd love to understand why it sometimes breaks, but thats another issue in its self i guess. [01:58] zeon98: something like http://lifehacker.com/how-to-clone-your-raspberry-pi-sd-card-for-super-easy-r-1261113524 [01:58] I followed this guide: http://www.namhuy.net/3106/install-vnc-server-ubuntu-14-04.html however the vncserver service doesn't start on boot. :\ When I run `sudo update-rc.d vncserver default` found here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/9382/how-can-i-configure-a-service-to-run-at-startup it says "System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/vncserver already exist." I also put `vncserver` in rc.local before the `exit 0` line. What am I doing wrong? [01:59] 14.10's pretty solid at this point, right? [01:59] thanks Loshki, that would do it, you don't have any ideas how to do it using linux by any chance? [02:00] teaearlgraycold: it's non-LTS so that's the main deal changer vs. 14.04.1 [02:01] zeon98: look closer, there are tiny instruction sections for osx/linux on that page. [02:01] daftykins, right, well I don't really need LTS on my laptop :P === zopsi is now known as notzopsi [02:01] But I've had bad experiences with updates on launch day [02:01] anybody able to point me in the right direction to be able to get a more recent version ( like the version from utopic ) of ruby-build for use on precise ? [02:01] zeon98, it says for linux use dd [02:01] вы говорите по-русский?

[02:03] Hey guys. Really new to Ubuntu and IRC. Is there a new user channel? [02:03] lyle: this channel here will do. [02:03] lyle, you're looking at it [02:03] teaearlgraycold: really? You don't mind your laptop spontaneously rebooting or whatever? [02:04] Loshki, I've never had that issue with a non-LTS [02:04] I don't know the protocol for posting. I want to know which virtual machine software would be easiet to setup on my Windows machine to test distros [02:04] why is vnc slow for you Wulf? [02:05] zeon98: because it's vnc [02:05] lyle: VirtualBox is pretty easy to use. [02:05] zeon98: or were there any noteworthy improvements that I might have missed? [02:05] lyle, I agree that VirtualBox is the best optino [02:06] It's free, crossplatform, easy to use [02:06] s1 [02:07] what about the USB how to site said to not load usb when installing Virtual Box. Why not? I promise not to bug anymore ... Tonight. Ha ha [02:07] Whats your reasoning for using vnc to a linux box Wulf? [02:07] lyle, many people are here to be bugged. They want to help you [02:08] lyle: nothing wrong with USB under vbox on Windows. just try it. please direct questions for that product toward #vbox though, as that's not technically ubuntu support. [02:08] Not hear that before lyle. [02:08] What your trying to do lyle? [02:09] Thank you guys. I'm going to go give it a try. Since I downloaded Ubuntu I want to quit work and just play computer. Ha ha [02:09] Thanks [02:09] Does anyone know why my youtube player keeps having a error [02:09] teaearlgraycold: what? Not even a whatever? You're a lucky man. [02:09] so, can anybody help with my challenge ? [02:09] !manual | lyle there is also this: [02:09] lyle there is also this:: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [02:09] Loshki, what do you mean "Not even a whatever"? [02:09] On linux NotTobuscus1? [02:10] Yeah. On luna [02:10] Alphakarem: your question is more that for ruby developers i'd think. no channels for that? [02:10] LTS ruby-build only supports definitions up through 2.0.0-p0 ... I'd very much like to have options for ruby versions up through 2.1.4 ... which *are* supported on the version of ruby-build available on utopic. So, how might I get to use that version ... I'm not wanting to grab them manually and making maintenance a nightmare. [02:11] No, it's a package question for Ubuntu. === aj_ is now known as aj-x [02:11] Can you stream youtube at all [02:11] or will it not work full stop [02:11] daftykins: but I do appreciate your opinion. [02:12] a1ph4g33k i mean they'd have more experience [02:12] lyle, just get a job with plenty of time to screw around on computers :P [02:12] Like IT [02:12] Im new to linux, does anyone know how to download and make minecraft work on a .tar file? :/ [02:12] gotcha, really the question is how can I ( or even just "Can I" ) use package versions from the latest version of Ubuntu on my older LTS installation ? [02:13] NotTobuscus1, what do you mean? [02:13] a1ph4g33k: not really, the mixing of versions would cause much brekage [02:13] *breakage [02:13] Is that a typo for .jar? [02:13] teaearlgraycold: sorry, I'll just say it here: in my opinion, 12.04.4 is the most stable release. Software stability decreases with newness. [02:13] yeah [02:13] .tar by i meant .jar [02:13] NotTobuscus1, not 100% sure on the package name but run [02:13] NotTobuscus1: tonnes of ubuntu minecraft guides out there [02:13] daftykins: ok, thanks [02:13] sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [02:13] Or java7 [02:14] a1ph4g33k: if you can find them in a repo though, for your existing version, that'd be fine. [02:14] forget it [02:14] On the youtube issue, if its a bandwidth problem you can use: sudo apt-get install youtube-dl [02:14] NotTobuscus1, okay it's default-jre for me [02:14] Is there an ubuntu guide to using a dedicated MUSH client without having to install a VirtualBox or KVM? [02:14] then: youtube-dl %linkpath% [02:14] Yeah, I can go grab the .deb from precise. [02:15] NotTobuscus1: on their download page, they kind of give an example, java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar Minecraft.jar [02:15] to download and save to your local pc. [02:15] anyone got some SAS 8807 > 4x SATA cables to recommend? [02:17] what's mush basil1x? [02:18] MultiUserSharedHallucination [02:18] It's quite popular with blind/poorly sighted gamers.

[02:19] is that right basil1x? [02:20] It is. AlterAeon is a popular one. Google it if you wish. [02:20] ls [02:20] They claim to have a linux client, but it segfaults. [02:20] which better web browser opera or chrome [02:21] and the windows one doesn't do anything on WINE === darren is now known as Guest50574 [02:40] you guys see war thunder was released today for linux? [02:41] this is not a chat channel. [02:45] hi [02:46] How to close the channel list window of xchat？ [02:47] any people？ [02:49] yes [02:49] skh_: press the "x" at the top left [02:49] -_o [02:51] I'm guessing if a kernel is installed off of kernel.ubuntu.com we no longer want to dist-upgrade on that machine === That_random_guy is now known as plshelp [02:59] jiffe, kernel sets run independently, I don;t see why not, you can have grub default the boot you want. [02:59] jiffe: I would still do dist-upgrade, as the kernel is not the only thing that gets updated from it. If you want, you could set your apt preferences to not install newer kernels if that is what you want. bubbasaures's option is also valid. === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [03:14] so, i appear to have two login screens, one that i get first and then another that overrides it. any thoughts? [03:15] Finetundra: encrypted home dir? [03:15] nope [03:16] 2nd login keyring ? [03:16] I'm presented with a login screen then after i type in my password it throws up another weather the prior was successful or not [03:16] having trouble getting proftpd working... anyone familiar [03:17] 0erHeks, what's that? [03:17] Finetundra: exactly the same screen? [03:17] keyring would be shown clearly [03:17] aeon-ltd, yep [03:17] can somebody point me to the icon set in use for Ubuntu 14.04? the name would help me google that for me... [03:18] speckmade1, webupd8 has tons of articles about icons and fonts, numix is populair [03:18] Hey folks, made a recent post on Ask Ubuntu about $DISPLAY being cleared, wondering if you guys might have advice on the subject: http://askubuntu.com/questions/546626/display-env-var-gets-cleared-at-random-times?stw=2 [03:19] speckmade1, the defasult is ubuntu-mono, or something like that [03:19] aeon-ltd, any idea? === tex is now known as Guest81609 [03:21] Finetundra: seems that was what I was looking for. Thanks. [03:22] speckmade1, anytime [03:24] Finetundra: if there is some kind of blip between the screens it could be possible that it's actually crashing out, then automatically restarting X/login manager [03:25] aeon-ltd, what could be causing that? there is a blink but that can occur even if it logged in [03:26] Finetundra: heh, now if this is true then we'd have to identify a login item or something scripted to launch at login that only or mostly works on second launch [03:26] i am having trouble allowing flash to use my webcam on firefox 33 on ubuntu 14.04.1 [03:26] i can't click 'allow' [03:27] InFlames, How did you install flash? [03:27] aeon-ltd, oh what fun. what needs to be done? [03:29] InFlames, use this settings manager http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager06.html worked for me [03:29] Finetundra: other than eliminate all current login items, i don't really know. but really this is based on whether this is actually the cause [03:29] aeon-ltd, i'm guessing that's a bad thing to have to do? [03:31] seems the ffmpeg package is now gone. I think they replaced it with something else. what name is the new package? [03:32] Finetundra: no, but if you rely on a lot of stuff at login it's a hassle. the bigger hassle is that if this is true you need to go through each individual item to find the offending application [03:32] bubbasaures: installed via sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer [03:33] Finetundra: make note of the current set up though so you can restore it later [03:33] aeon-ltd, do you mean startup applications? [03:33] OerHeks: the settigns manager 4 and 6 never finish loading for me [03:34] sacarlson1, ffmpeg is replaced by avconv, you'll need libav-tools [03:34] how is everyone [03:34] InFlames, sorry to hear that, it is the only settings manager i know [03:34] i don't know why it doesn't finish loading, seems like a css file gets stuck [03:34] OerHeks: yes that's what I just learned from this http://askubuntu.com/questions/432542/is-ffmpeg-missing-from-the-official-repositories-in-14-04 [03:35] does anyone know how to make hdmi via an nvidia gtx make sound work? [03:35] aeon-ltd, one question outside of this issue. does ubuntu save the way a particular etwork is setup? [03:35] i have a gtx 560 that's connected to my monitor via hdmi and I have the sound going through the monitor [03:35] OerHeks: now I looking at what I should do as the alternative. I guess I'll try to port my jpg to video converter to this avconv and see how it goes first [03:35] but ubuntu does not recognize it [03:35] skylar: i have the same issue actually [03:37] Finetundra: what? also yes the startup application [03:37] skylar: exact same, gtx 860m to hdmi [03:37] #python [03:37] skylar: are you using the nvidia proprietary drivers? [03:38] skylar: i am reading http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1866977 it might help you as well [03:38] aeon-ltd, well good thing that none of my applications should be startups. what i meant was, the way the router is configured, like it's ip and stuff that controls the routers functions? [03:39] @InFlames, yes i am [03:39] i will look at the link [03:39] thank you! === Joshua^Dunamis_i is now known as Joshua^Dunamis [03:40] skylar: if if helps you, please let me know, i have to deal with that issue later [03:41] Finetundra: i'm not entirely sure what you mean, but the routers ip and its configuration should be on the router itself unless your pc is acting as a access point [03:41] @InFlames, I am using the propriatary driver and I still can't figure out how to configure the issue via the sound control panel. [03:42] I've tried every output device and playing a sound file, and it still isn't working for me yet, although I haven't tried the command line as i'm not sure how to use it for an issue like this [03:47] aeon-ltd, well i don't know a very good way to describe it, but it seems that my computer has carried one routers settings over to another [03:48] aeon-ltd, i realize thats probably beyond the scope of this channel but its just very odd [03:50] I have a newer hp laptop with ubuntu 14.04 installed, and I installed the proprietary radeon HD kabini video driver to get X windows to be responsive, but now going into sleep mode becomes unrecoverable when I open my laptop lid..... the caps lock responds but even ctrl+alt+f1 does nothing and then makes the caps lock unresponsive... any idea where to start? [03:56] hi [03:57] How can I install the latest kernel in ubuntu? [03:57] 3.17.2 [03:58] anyone know what this means when I try to ftp into my server [03:58] ubuntu 421 service not available [03:58] Ubuntu bug 421 in gnome-session (Ubuntu) "Lithuanian translation for "Suspend" and "Hibernate"" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/421 [03:58] use pacman [03:59] I've tried proftpd and vsftpd and neither seem to be working right [03:59] sudo pacman -S linux [03:59] ps ax doesn't show anything listening on 21 [03:59] oops, wrong distro === lyle_ is now known as lyle [04:03] anyone know how to really remove/uninstall something [04:03] junkanoo: apt-get purge [04:03] i've tried apt-get remove, apt-get clean, apt-get --purge [04:03] junkanoo: on the ftp thing, check your firewall, and check ftp logs [04:04] i still see somethign under /run [04:04] hi all [04:04] hi [04:05] hi there [04:05] iptables definitely has 21 open [04:05] but vsftpd and proftpd suck [04:05] they both are just a pain to get running... [04:06] hi [04:06] the info command is really uncomfortable to use, any substitute? [04:06] junkanoo: you have to stop the service before you purge it ;) [04:06] I just joined, but why are you using FTP instead of SFTP? [04:06] daftykins, it was never running [04:06] checked with ps ax [04:07] proftpd wants to start using xinetd instead of init.d [04:07] ugh [04:07] DevilToo, becuase i have a dev that doesn't understand sftp [04:08] junkanoo: ahh ok [04:08] ok... i'm going to start from scratch [04:08] sudo apt-get install proftpd [04:08] resorts to proftp-basic?? [04:08] but ok [04:09] giving me standalone or inetd... i tried inetd before so I'm going to try standalone this time [04:09] junkanoo: I'd just take some screenshots of it configured with Filezilla [04:09] SFTP that is [04:09] true i could do that [04:10] DevilToo, it's an amazon instance... will have to pass in a pem file [04:11] DevilToo, can you do that w filezilla [04:11] Anyone familar with the pricing for Amazon glacier ? [04:11] I know it's off topic but I am confused on the pricing [04:12] ps ax | grep ftp doesn't show anything [04:12] ok. I found pinfo. [04:12] if is there any better interface program then pinfo, do tell me guys. [04:13] Junkanoo: ahh how I set it up for designers and the devs was to create folders chowned to their username with a bash script they can run to update their changes with rsync/bash script [04:13] but that has to be more of a pain than setting up proftpd [04:13] DevilToo, yeah [04:13] i just installed proftpd [04:13] but it's not running [04:14] so i did sudo service xinetd restart [04:14] still no dice [04:14] !!! its so annoying [04:14] junkanoo: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:15] xine log says 21 already in use... great [04:15] Junkanoo: any reason you're using xinetd? nagio NRPE or something? [04:15] proftpd defaults to xinetd [04:15] no longers users init [04:15] smh [04:16] Junkanoo: I use CentOS at work and Ubuntu at home so didn't know. [04:16] DevilToo, just frustrating bc it used to work great... under init.d [04:16] now they screwed it all up [04:17] so where is it failing exactly? [04:18] 21 is already in use according to xinetd logs... so i'm rebooting. [04:18] could have been opened from previous attempts before removes [04:19] steam doesn't work [04:20] try creating a config file nano /etc/inetd.d/ftp [04:20] put this in there [04:21] DevilToo, still says 21 in use [04:22] what does netstat -lp show [04:22] feel free to PM it [04:23] i did netstat -pant and it does show something locking 21 but no description [04:23] lp shows the same [04:28] Hey [04:28] Howdy [04:28] When doing `sudo rndc reload`, I'm getting the error 'rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused'. [04:28] What could be the reason? [04:30] BlueShark: that port isnt opened [04:30] cryptodan: How do I fix it? [04:31] by running the software that opens that port or by checking your firewall [04:34] Well, I was trying to configure a forwarding resolver. I edited /etc/bind/named.conf and this is how it looks like: https://bpaste.net/show/f5ef90f93ba8 [04:34] But when I reload rndc, it shows the above error. [04:35] My computer is artifacing is ubuntu planning on releasing a newer stable version of Nvidia graphic cards???? [04:35] BlueShark: http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/networking_2ndEd/dns/ch07_01.htm [04:36] cryptodan: thanks. Any where specific I should be looking at? [04:36] I had to switch to older version of nvidia [04:36] read that entire page [04:38] Anybody know if their releasing stable version of nvidia [04:39] cryptodan: ... and? [04:39] BlueShark: and understand how to make bind listen on port 953 [04:40] john38: nvidia drivers are stable [04:40] hi all, I could use a bit of help, i seem to have created some knots in apt-get [04:41] cryptodan, well my computer starting artifacting i had to manually restart it to safe mode [04:41] cryptodan, i had to revert to older version it was working fine since release of pangolin [04:41] john38: time to replace video card [04:42] cryptodan, noooo [04:42] cryptodan, the video card??? [04:42] cryptodan, its a gtx470 [04:42] john38: video card artifacting is an indication that the video card is in pre-failure mode [04:42] cryptodan, oh yeah [04:43] john38: also try cleaning it out [04:43] Ubuntu on a LiveUSB doesn't work for me. I've tried both 14.04, 14.10 and Linux Mint (just to verify) with no success. [04:43] It works on my other machine though [04:43] cryptodan, the dust right [04:43] john38: yes [04:43] cryptodan, get right on it [04:43] now the software center keeps saying "New software can't be installed because there is a problem with the software currently installed. Do you want to repair this problem now?" [04:44] the grub menu pops up when I boot, but it just goes to an unresponsive grey terminal no matter what option I choose [04:45] when i click repair, i get "package operation failed" with these details: http://pastie.org/9701890 [04:45] can anyone tell me how to fix what i seem to have broken? [04:46] pretty please? [04:46] hitting F6 on the GRUB screen just seems to refresh the screen [04:47] so I can't try 'nomodeset' mode [04:50] Hi everyone, I have issue with chrome: http://i.imgur.com/5zVoXxK.png [04:50] Whenever I launch chrome it doesn't display chrome [04:51] it displays Joan of Arc..... and I want it be chrome and not a page [04:51] any here can help? [04:51] I tried complete removal and resetting and nothing works [04:52] * jasonjang is away: away [04:53] OERIAS: what? looks like chrome [04:53] Ben64, it is chrome but chrome was renamed [04:54] check the top left bar [04:54] notice how it is treated like a different program? [04:54] that's the problem [04:54] took me a second as well, but when I saw it [04:54] that it says "Joan of Arc [04:54] OERIAS: close that, open a terminal and type "google-chrome" [04:54] when it isn't [04:55] google chrome launches like it should [04:55] now I want to remove the "Joan of Arc____________" [04:55] did you do what i asked [04:55] yes [04:55] and? [04:56] how do you change it to "Google Chrome" when the menu bar reports it as something else [04:56] this is part of the process, answer the questions [04:57] Ben64, I did type the above command [04:57] * jasonjang is back (gone 00:04:44) [04:57] jasonjang: don't do away messages here [04:57] Hi wanted to know how to setup printer on ubuntu 14.04 [04:57] ^ no one cares, please stop that jasonjang [04:58] Ben64, what do I do? [04:58] sram, Try the 'printers' app [04:58] someone pls give me a working link for printer setup on ubuntu 14.04 [04:58] Ben64, BlueShark, OK i C, I'll check and update, I'm soory [04:58] !printers | sram [04:58] !printer | sram [04:58] sram: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu [04:59] sram: if its an HP run the following in a terminal as a regular user hp-setup [04:59] Ben64, when i type google-chrome it show they it is suppose to be shown [04:59] OERIAS: can you say that again in english [04:59] but i'd like to know if i can remove the instance in question [05:00] Ben64, i am speaking in English [05:00] I don't supose there is a method or a tool that will make find . "*.jpg" output the list of files in last modified order is there? [05:00] OERIAS: "it show they it is suppose to be shown" makes no sense [05:00] opps that's find . -name "*.jpg" [05:01] Ben64, okay, what i meant was that when i type the above, command Google Chrome is launched with the correct name [05:01] but when I click the one on the launcher it launches "Joan of Arc _____" [05:01] OERIAS: great, then it is the way you normally launch chrome which is the problem [05:01] sacarlson1: Why not `ls`? [05:02] Yes Ben64 it is problem. [05:02] sacarlson1: ls -halt [05:03] so can someone tell what might the cause of this? [05:03] #ubuntu-ops [05:03] sorry [05:03] OERIAS: i just did, your launcher === nha_ is now known as nha [05:03] Okay Ben64 what do you suggest? [05:04] OERIAS: add a new launcher or change your current one [05:04] Ben64, it doesn't fix the issue [05:04] you didn't try it [05:04] i did [05:04] BlueShark: I first tried ls -t but it's looking a a link of a link from what the script does so ls only provides the time of when the link to the link was made [05:05] Ben64, same issue [05:05] again [05:05] not possible [05:05] yes [05:05] if google-chrome works from terminal, then a new launcher will too, you're doing something incorrectly [05:05] I typed the above command [05:05] sacarlson1: I don't understand what you're saying [05:06] BlueShark: filea > link to file a > link to link of file a [05:07] BlueShark: the task is to group 10 directory with jpg images in them into one big list then convert that list into a video that needs to be in time sequence order [05:08] sacarlson1: put them all into one directory... [05:08] Ben64, I understand that part, i typed google-chrome in a terminal, but when launching the application from the launcher or unity lens [05:08] OERIAS: right, so make a new launcher [05:08] BlueShark: at present I could instead copy the files instead of links but then the needed space will be over 10gb in size and would take a long time to copy [05:08] Ben64, tell me the command [05:08] OERIAS: i don't use unity [05:09] Who does? [05:09] who uses unity here? Help?? [05:09] BlueShark: the final conversion will also scale the images to a smaller size [05:09] OERIAS: be patient [05:09] how do I do on the command line what paprefs does with a GUI? (*still* trying to get Skype working) [05:10] on join spam from ciclopee [05:10] Ben64 I did consider moving all the files into a single directory but then that also messes up the way the files are organized [05:10] sacarlson1: if you're going to combine them all based on time, how would it mess anything up [05:11] Ben64 it only combines them as a video, the images are not moved or changed in any way [05:11] sacarlson1: ok, so i don't see how having them in one directory would mess anything up [05:12] Ben64 well the files are organized in a manner like "beach_with_jane" "new_years_eve_2013" ..... [05:13] So? Just put them in a single directory, perform the sorting, and use them however you want. What's wrong with that approach? [05:13] sacarlson1: ok? [05:13] Ben64 at this point I could copy all the 10+gb and I have not totaled all the images sizes yet but that will take time and resources [05:15] BlueShark: at this point I may just end up doing that with the copy method. but I'm not sure with only 40gb of free space I have left that I will be able to get it done [05:16] oh the final video also takes space as it's being made so I didn't count that space used [05:17] OERIAS, browsers have resets and new user options along with cleaning the history, cache and cookies, I would start here, https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/3296214?hl=en [05:25] this looks like I'm getting close, I think all I need is to strip out the file name out of the lines of this find . -printf "%T@ %Tc %p\n" | sort -n [05:26] some kind of pipe into sed I guess === edition is now known as ahconerf [05:26] Are you hungry? === ahconerf is now known as edition [05:34] what am I doing here? [05:35] bubbasaures, I did do a clean and reset [05:35] The issue is what launches the browser: bubbasaures [05:42] I think I found my solution with this method find . -printf "%T@ %Tc %p\n" | sort -n | grep -oE '[^ ]+$' [05:42] great. [05:42] what time is it sacarlson1? [05:43] 12:45pm by my clock why do you ask? [05:44] because i thought it was TIME FOR YOU TO SHUT THE FUCK UP [05:48] L1THiuM: why? when you find a solution that you asked about, don't you tell others what the solution was? or do you keep it a secret so others will never learn that answer? [05:48] ooooooooo, nice === curiousx is now known as Chuck_Norris [06:05] Hey, I've found people! :D [06:05] Hi mala [06:06] Feels kinda weird being able to talk to people. [06:07] Do you need any help with Ubuntu, or have any questions? [06:09] I did crontab -e and added "0 0 * * * * cp -r ~/FolderA ~/FolderB" to the top of the file but below the comments. It says the command is invalid. [06:09] Just a general linux question I guess, Whats up with the lack of installers for free software? Everyone seems to distribute it as terminal package commands, or tarballs? [06:11] mala, that's how linux works in general. this ain't windows ;P [06:11] mala: That's a sort of broad question. A lot of software can be installed in Ubuntu through its package management system. Other distributions usually have their methods of installing, too. That being said, there are a few installers that work separately from a package manager. For example, www.planeshift.it has installers for their client that are basically distro-independent. [06:11] ObrienDave, even Mac OS X has .app [06:12] Yeah, just wish it was more idiot friendly for me. [06:12] so? it isn't a mac either [06:12] mala, give it time, you'll soon appreciate the lack of M$ garbage [06:13] mala: Is there software that you are looking for that isn't available in Ubuntu's package manager? If so, you may want to check with the people who wrote the software and see if they offer a .deb installer. It should install by double-clicking generally. [06:14] !releases [06:14] Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [06:15] Nvm, I got it. [06:15] Nothing in particular celroc, just one of those thing's I've found irritating since installing. I should also probably be on the Mint IRC as well. [06:18] . [06:22] Hey guys i am really new to linux, wondering if you could help me out. [06:23] anyone? lol [06:23] What do you need help with? [06:24] christian_: Please post your question, and someone may be able to help you :-) [06:25] thank you sir, so anyone ever heard of software manager? im running peppermint. It stopped working i think other ubuntu users use it too. [06:25] isn't there a paistbin app to send a text file to some paistbin site? or do I just suck at spelling ha ha [06:26] sacarlson1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Pastebin [06:26] good morning to all [06:26] kahtahs: ha ha yup I suck at spelling thanks [06:27] so im going to guess no one know, im prolly crazy. any good ways to get wireshark on peppermint? [06:27] christian_: Does it give you any error messages? [06:27] It goes to download it but never completes. [06:28] what is going on [06:29] christian_: Hmm... I don't know much about software manager. You can try running "sudo apt-get install wireshark" in a terminal to get it if you want to try the command-line tools. [06:30] christian_: [06:30] oh my god. I need to get wireshark. Some kid is DDOSing. [06:30] me [06:30] peppermint isnt supported here [06:30] Oh crap, Forreal lotus? my bad dude. [06:30] christian_: you can install ubuntu, and install wireshark from there if you like [06:30] I have installed sphinxsearch from pkg, there is no init script under /etc/init.d related to sphinx search but whenever i call "service sphinxsearch restart" it works, any idea how it does ? [06:31] try ##linuxmint [06:31] Theres no way im getting a whole new distro for that.. i was just wondering if anyone could help me. i cant get into mint it says error [06:32] christian_: If you want to try the commandline way of installing it, try running "sudo apt-get install wireshark" in a terminal. That should install it for you [06:32] I can give that a try real quick give me like 5 minutes [06:32] calvados: try jobs-admin maybe to see if your service show there?

There were controversies over logging in that way, IIRC [06:37] calvados: its not installed by default [06:37] Im just trying to figure out how to get wireshark because this kid got my ip off a sniffer on psn. Im going to make him cry. [06:38] i think it may be skeleton under init.d finding sphinxsearch though [06:38] calvados: so your script doesnt show under ls /etc/init? [06:38] whats wrong with logging in as root? [06:38] Vulnerabilities I think [06:38] christian_: please stop asking support for peppermint [06:38] lotuspsychje: no it is not there is a file called skeleton under /etc/init.d , maybe its a generic thing [06:39] Mint support is silent Lotus, and mint is ubuntu derivitive anyway. === h4kriX_l is now known as h4kriX [06:39] calvados: pstree shows your script running?

Remember, you didn't hear it from me, lol [06:40] lotuspsychje: its not script its binary of sphinxsearch [06:40] ok :p [06:40] Where else am i supposed to go? i tried peppermint. No one is there i cant get in linux mint. I am seriously being screwed in the ass rn please someone help.

[06:47] corax, i just tried it on my wifi. but even at more than 3,00,000 IV's its not cracking [06:48] christian__: to be able to help you here, its important its ubuntu related to find a good solution === Shogun_ is now known as Shogun [06:48] corax, any idea ? [06:48] lotuspsychje: To be fair, peppermint is actually based on Ubuntu [06:49] Celroc is being nice and not caring why do you have to be so uptight. Hes helping me. Why cant you? [06:49] celroc: it is just not supported here. [06:49] celroc: so many flavors are based on ubuntu, its still not supported [06:49] skyfall for me it works fine ... do remember that at least one unit has to be connected wirelessly to the access point you are trying to crack [06:49] christian__: feel free to ask helpers to deal with this in PM with you, but the discussion about Mint does not belong in this channel [06:49] celroc: if he just installed ubuntu, he could install wireshark without trouble...its in repos [06:50] !info wireshark [06:50] wireshark (source: wireshark): network traffic analyzer - GTK+ version.

It previously booted fine, but has started hanging up on reboot now... the last message printed to the screen is "Started Bridge socket events into upstart [ OK ]" ... where do I start to find out what is wrong?

[06:51] skyfall could you eloborate on the steps you are taken during the crack attempt ? [06:51] ? [06:51] corax, from the first ? [06:51] Ip where else am i supposed to go to get help? ask random people on PM and be a little creep? I came here for simple help not to argue with anyone. Lets just keep it nice and have celroc help me like the good person he is. Its still going right now. [06:51] eslam: this is the ubuntu support channel, not a place for chat. Do you have a support question? [06:51] christian__: not here. Simple as that. Chat with celroc on PM by all means. [06:52] corax, i did "aircrack-ng mon0 [06:52] and lets not discuss aircrack wifi hacking here neither guys..

Just please take it out of here. [06:53] *two [06:53] Man, sometimes. This used to be an easy way to get help. Now look at it. Is aircrack any good? i need a decent sniffer. [06:53] corax, i did "aircrack.ng " [06:53] hi [06:54] corax, i did "aircrack-ng " [06:54] skyfall did you make sure that the .cap file includes "the handshake" ? [06:54] christian_: Would you be interested in moving over to ##linux, or some other channel? [06:55] corax, by what you meant "the handshake " [06:55] skyfall, corax please take wifi cracking elsewhere [06:55] Can anyone suggest a foss mock up tool for linux? I need something I can use to do web site/page mock ups. [06:55] If i knew how to Pm i would pm you. But i have no idea how to sadly. Now we cant talk about aircrack? Killjoy.

[06:57] assuming Xchat or HexChat [06:57] Pidgin actually, but almost the same :-) [06:57] celroc: christian__ just type "/join #christian_mint" and you'll both be in a channel together [06:58] hexchat is an IRC client? Wish I'd known that before I installed XChat >.< [06:58] Xchat is unmaintained. HexChat is a maintained fork [06:59] wonderful.... I've downloaded the obsolete when the cutting edge came bundled [06:59] so, install hexchat. no biggie [07:00] already have it, comes preinstalled with my distro. === map is now known as mapps [07:00] I am booting a VM off a NFS mounted drive...

[07:01] Mala what disro are you on? if i can ask. [07:01] mint iirc [07:01] im not the only one running mint. Thats good. [07:02] * ObrienDave is sure there are more than 2 mint users out there ;P [07:02] lol [07:02] None on irc at this hour though it seems [07:02] can't help that [07:02] Everyone seems so against it though. i dunno, i read some people wrong. [07:03] We're in their channel talking about our distro is the issue [07:03] we're not against it, we can't support every distro out there [07:04] No one else is in the other channel and celroc is willing to help me why cant they? its not just me right? I swear im just good at pissing people off. [07:04] lotuspsychje: err, never used it before but what i've heard is you can basically create a representation of what a web page is supposed to look like when it's done (ends up being an image or something). [07:04] what is the default video player that will work from the command line or is there even one? [07:05] mplayer [07:05] I mean preinstalled prefered [07:05] sacarlson1: none [07:06] lotuspsychje: would show logos, text, background and foreground colors, dimensions, etc - end up looking like a picture of what the page will looklike once it's built.

[08:48] For cuda computing [08:48] karab44: afaik SLI on Linux remains broken [08:49] No, it just requires enabling.

[08:57] Surendil: tnx was just on apt-cache myself :p [08:57] lotuspsychje: =) [08:58] karab44: well you could tryout some drivers or other ubuntu flavors to test, like xubuntu or lubuntu [08:59] I use nvidia proprietary drivers on fresh install where it works as well as on old system where it doesn't [08:59] karab44: did you setup ubuntu with internet cable on? [08:59] karab44: and download updates during install? [08:59] Listen [09:00] It works on fresh install ok? [09:00] I doesn't on old one [09:00] karab44: that wasnt my question mate [09:01] karab44: other hardware/bios layouts can react different on fresh install with internet/updates [09:01] Yes but you're investigating something that works [09:01] I had internet connection while install [09:01] kk === curiousx is now known as Chuck_Norris [09:02] karab44: can you pastebin lshw -C video? [09:02] karab44: what is the version of the old ubuntu? [09:02] Old copy is system taken from PC with single gpu [09:03] Chuck I need to recover system image again so pls wait [09:04] I am here all the time BTW because I am on tablet [09:04] system image? [09:04] what is the version of the ubuntu that doesn't boot? [09:05] 14.04.1 [09:06] karab44: and the version of the ubuntu that boots is 14.10 right? [09:06] I had i7260k with 780ti now I have i7 5960x with 2x 780ti. I moved my ssd from old to new one [09:07] ok ok, i know what you got [09:07] Chuck no, it's 14.04.1 [09:08] Chuck_Norris: I just assembled new PC and installed old ssd drive with 14. 04 since it works fine with single GPU it doesn't boot with two pcie active [09:08] If you ask me to reinstall nvidia drivers just provide detailed description because it always ends up with kernel panic [09:09] well, it could be a kernel related issue so, check the version of the kernel on both system, and check "/etc/default/grub" on both systems, there you may find the solution i think -.- [09:09] WTF [09:09] st0x: please keep the channel language polite [09:09] Chuck kernel is always up to date [09:10] karab44: how are you installing nvidia [09:10] well. the system thats boot may have the parameters in "/etc/default/grub" compare them [09:12] Ben in fresh it comes from repository with update postfix. Old system has manually installed latest drivers from nvidia but I don't know how to wipe them out [09:12] From nvidia website* [09:13] not sure exactly what you mean by that, but the nvidia.com drivers are not recommended or supported here [09:13] I have no neouveue drivers installed and distro drivers are wiped out for good. [09:14] histo, anybody knows what to install to have kvm guest tools installed on a vm [09:14] Ben just advice how to get rid of them and install standard ones [09:14] karab44: i don't know, you'd have to check the documentation for them [09:15] And I tried to Nvidia-xxx.sh --uninstall but after reinstalling drivers to supported it didn't help much [09:16] I need step by step instructions [09:17] karab44: if you still have the "nvidia.run" over there you have to stop "lightdm" then i think you have to run the nvidia nibary like so: sudo nvidia.run --uninstall [09:17] I did that and it said success [09:17] karab44: thats what i do with amd's binary to get rid of it [09:17] But no cigar [09:18] I can only try when I boot in recovery mode. Normally it gives me no chance because of kernel panic [09:19] karab44: maybe a reinstall with nomodeset? [09:20] More Precisely please? [09:20] !nomodeset | karab44 [09:20] karab44: 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.

This is how I start with fresh install what works [09:24] karab44: normally you can try recoverymode failsafeX from grub aswell, or fix broken packages [09:25] Failsafe x doesn't work [09:25] karab44: but i would try a fresh reinstall, with nomodeset on first, see how it reacts [09:25] It freezes pc [09:26] Fresh reinstall of what? [09:26] Drivers or system? [09:26] karab44: ubuntu 14.04 fresh, with nomodeset option [09:26] Why? [09:26] It works fine without it [09:26] anyway bbl [09:27] I am not sure do you understand the problem [09:31] Give me a second [09:32] I have an idea [09:32] It may be lack of nvidia prime that causes the problem. I have to be sure [09:34] karab44: only if you have an optimus type system, which i doubt with two gtx780s === floown_ is now known as floown [09:36] Hello [09:37] I have a SOA problem with my Ubuntu server http://pastebin.com/8dE3rsk2 [09:38] What can I do?

[14:19] JC_Yang: you installed openssh then, right? [14:19] yes [14:19] Surendil, afa i can tell [14:20] JC_Yang: really weird, should be there [14:20] is there a jpg viewer that comes as default on Ubuntu Desktop?

[14:37] Surendil, nice, that's handy within the terminal. [14:37] To be more accurate though, I'm looking for a way to highlight without using the mouse. [14:38] Or cut would be fine. But Ctrl+k only copies within the terminal context. [14:38] catcher: nope, you got me there, i have no clue [14:38] ObrienDave: Are you ok for a pm [14:38] Hello, anyone know any general computer hard/software channels here on irc?

I am able to perform a guest login without issue. Any suggestions on debugging? [14:55] hello all [14:57] k [14:58] Hi everyone [14:58] Any idea why I'm getting extra text when pasting a block of text to a heredoc... http://pastebin.com/mUgZiAen? [14:59] hi [15:01] My question involves disk drives and software RAID... I have 'heard' that setting up a RAID array can really speed up disk access and I would like to do this, however Im a little skeptical about weather this is true or not. I have 2 sata 80gb 7200rpm drives that i can setup as raid 0 or 1 and would like some input on weather or not this would be worth the trouble. [15:02] pfifo: if you've only got two drives, I wouldn't [15:03] reisio: can you elaborate a little on why [15:03] not unless you're truly happy to wake up one day and have to replace them both, for the sake of increased access :) [15:03] increased load on the drives? [15:03] pfifo: 80gb spinning drives? They must be pretty old, maybe invest in one new SSD instead [15:04] (i have 3 80gb sata 7200's actually) [15:04] 80gb is quite small indeed [15:05] Wulf: yes, these come from recycled computers. [15:05] you can do it, you should just be aware that raid is hard on drives [15:05] you should also already have extra disks to drop into the array === gthank is now known as zz_gthank [15:05] 80gb is quite a bit for me, i dont keep lots of large media files anymore [15:05] and the smaller the array, the less reliable it will be [15:06] I think SSDs start at $30-40 ? [15:07] reisio: SSD is an option for me, but i just spent my budget on the new build, and the new build allows for addition of extra drives, I have these laying around doing nothing, and dont need any more storage space [15:07] * reisio shrugs [15:07] i have a zoomed screen in virtual box please help [15:08] dezoom [15:08] np [15:08] reisio: I guess the time spent in administration and frustration will out weigh the time saved in disk access then? [15:09] pfifo: it either will or it won't :) [15:09] ha [15:10] pfifo: buy a cheap ssd 2nd hand, and use magnetic drives for storage [15:11] lotuspsychje: my entire data storage needs total to less than 32gb anyway [15:11] Hey guys, I'm having an issue updating and I could use some expert help === Bob is now known as Guest85253 [15:12] Hello World [15:13] hello world [15:13] My Software Updater is erroring out, telling me Not enough free disk space.

[15:14] WvuSoldier, purge old kernel files for starters. not sure if that would help with /boot space [15:14] WvuSoldier: remove old kernels [15:15] hey [15:15] kk [15:18] *crosses fingers* attempting now. If I don't survive this, it's been nice! [15:18] don't delete your current kernel LOL [15:19] WvuSoldier: dont delete the one that matches the ouput of `uname -r` its the one you actually use [15:19] I think I did it right... [15:20] yep, looks good [15:20] WvuSoldier: also try `sudo apt-get autoremove` [15:20] always get special tense when messing with this level of things [15:20] sudo apt-get autoclean [15:20] also [15:20] very cool. I'll run that after the software updater finishes its business [15:21] hello, I migrated from KDE to Unity, and Unity looks ugly.. how to repair [15:21] suore: keep hitting your head on the screen to add an interesting red pattern [15:22] WvuSoldier: just for future reference, you likely didnt need /boot top be on a seperate partition [15:22] I have Xubuntu running on an old Dell, but it's been a bit slow, any recommendations for for a faster version?

[16:00] Okay thanks for the help [16:03] Hello all. I just installed Lubuntu. I have a thing. I want to increase my mouse speed(but without acceleration). I remember there was additional application for that, but forgot the name. [16:07] I know Ubuntu is derived from Debian, but how similar are the two exactly? [16:07] hi there.....I wanna filter tcpdump for all traffic to and from mydevice through ports <1024.......when I do "portrange 1-1023" I get data going to port 22 of the other ip......I want the portrange only for my ip [16:08] the packages are the same and the command similar or same [16:08] Leonidasxxx, What about the packages? [16:09] I mean does ubuntu stick with debian stable packaqes, or does it have it's own package release schedule/etc === jeremy_ is now known as Guest78649 [16:10] Hello people [16:11] iveevue: while ubuntu is mainly unmodified debian packages, the distros are very different [16:11] hi there (I was linux earlier, so repeating my question).....I wanna filter tcpdump for all traffic to and from mydevice through ports <1024.......when I do "portrange 1-1023" I get data going to port 22 of the other ip......I want the portrange only for my ip [16:12] :-) [16:12] zykotick9, Can you elaborate? [16:12] iveevue: yes, but it's offtopic here. [16:12] well u see I need to monitor to and from my ip that uses ports <1024 [16:12] I thought Ill use filter tcpdump [16:13] oh cool [16:13] wait me off topic? *confused* [16:13] any suggestions on which channel I should loolk? [16:15] iveevue: Ubuntu is based on Debian Testing, not Stable. We take a snapshot of the packages in Debian testing, import them, issue normal updates until "feature freeze," then security fixes for the remainder of its lifecycle. [16:15] Ah [16:15] So you do your own bug fixes ? [16:16] debian is a beta of ubuntu [16:17] i work with debian and here in ubuntu is so easy install and configure many things of server configurations [16:17] Leonidasxxx: debian is NOT a beta of ubuntu... the opposite would be closer to the truth... [16:18] its similar of beta [16:18] ubuntu is based off of debian.... [16:18] debian is not reliant on ubuntu at all [16:18] Why use Debian testing, rather than stable? [16:19] More features! idk to tell you the truth [16:19] You know, I use Debian a lot, I love it's stability but I have just install xubuntu and I am loving that too. [16:19] then when i use debian is very very inestable , i don't tell that debian are worse than ubuntu [16:20] I'm looking to move from Debian to something with more up-to-date packages and whatnot === Owner__ is now known as Guest45756 === Surendil_ is now known as Surendil [16:20] iveevue: Ubuntu is a pretty good choice. after all, it's Debian based, and every release it's got more updated software than Debian Stable... [16:21] the version now of debian is 6? [16:21] iveevue: Ubuntu's not reliant on Debian either for its release cycle, although it does nab some packages from Debian Unstable around release times [16:22] teward, How well does Ubuntu handle KDE? Feels like KDE Ubuntu is a side project... [16:22] teward: s/some packages/most packages/ [16:22] Hi there does anyone know of a way I can force a resoloution using xrandr? [16:22] Also, does Ubuntu do its own bug fixes? [16:22] resolution* [16:24] teward: sorry, i see your point. some packages from unstable... i thought you just meant ubuntu takes some packages from debian. [16:25] hello. I am on a xubuntu trusty thar i386 installation. parole, mplayer nor vlc will play a dvd I have. It worked with an older ubuntu derived installation before. How can I fix this? [16:26] zykotick9: they sync *some* packages from Unstable -> Ubuntu for new releases, but it's version-locked as usual after release. Power users like myself keep nabbing what we need from Debian Unstable though [16:27] zykotick9: some of the packages do come from Debian, if you go hunting at the packaging history [16:27] zykotick9: but no, Ubuntu is not controlled by Debian in any way. It's just debian-derived [16:27] The DVD is recognized and mounted. The folder hierarchy shows. [16:27] xbuntu0: you need to install some codecs probably [16:27] Are LTS releases always on even years and 4th month, e.g. 10.04, 12.04, 14.04, etc?

[16:55] hello! [16:55] inerkick, you need to read that link [16:55] but it only says upgrade upto 12.10 [16:55] isn't bazhang [16:55] sacarlson1: yeah it would say unknown interface - i’m restarting now ill give exact message when i restart [16:56] anywho knows why when I finish to install packet tracer on ubuntu don't run? [16:56] dcohen613: you might try sudo ifconfig eth1 up [16:56] sacarlson1: i tried all the way to 5 [16:56] lol [16:56] inerkick: you need to set the old-releases sources. since your waited so long with the upgrade ubunut shut the repos down [16:56] Hi [16:56] !eolupgrade | inerkick [16:56] inerkick: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [16:57] can't I directly upgrade to newer version bazhang [16:57] dcohen613: I'm not sure what you might have done to it then. maybe modified some kernel modules? [16:57] exit [16:57] inerkick: and dont mind if the wiki page says some old numbers. just make the steps and put in there your actual release number [16:57] sacarlson1: i dont think so :O [16:57] inerkick: no. you could have if you had stayed on 12.04, but not on 12.10 [16:58] ok [16:58] dcohen613: well then I guess at this point you might want to modprobe -r ????? and modprobe ???? to reload the needed module for the ethernet device you have [16:58] ok [16:58] inerkick: the bot gave you a wiki page which explaines all. so please read it, yes read it, and come back if you have specific questions to the upgrade procedure [16:59] dcohen613: you should also be able to see in /var/log/syslog for when it inits or tries to init lan devices and maybe find out what they named it [16:59] sacarlson1: ifconfig says no such device [17:00] whats the chipset dcohen613 [17:00] dcohen613: what lspci device is it you see as the wired lan device? [17:00] Hey again. I've tried restarting ibus, the whole distro collapsed(only the terminal remained operational), the languages still can't be changed. [17:00] the log sees the eth0 [17:00] sacarlson1: intel pro 1000 network connection [17:01] dgx what languages do you wish, what packages do you have to support those [17:01] sacarlson1: in the log it says: error getting hardware address for eth0 but it says a bunch of other stuff [17:01] It even deactivated my second monitor.. [17:01] bazhang: intel [17:01] dcohen613: is it on an plug in card? [17:01] bazhang, i need bulgarian and english, i see them listed in language support, with bulgarian being in gray, and english in black [17:01] dcohen613, intel makes many chipsets, please pastebin output of lspci [17:01] sacarlson1: i dont understand [17:02] dcohen613: does it plug into a slot on your computer [17:02] dgx, then you need to install the bulgarian support packages === tcpman is now known as Guest26969 [17:02] dcohen613: yes and I like bazhang idea show us the pastebin of lspci [17:03] bazhang, right, clicking on Install/Remove - I see that bulgarian is checked, therefore installed? [17:03] sacarlson1: bazhang seeing as i cant get the machine on a network, i cant pastebin it, but its : Ethernet Controller: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 04) [17:03] sacarlson1: yes it plugs in [17:03] dgx, what is the package you installed for that, apt-cache search bulgarian [17:03] sacarlson1: directly to mobo [17:04] dcohen613: oh ok is there another slot you can try? [17:04] sacarlson1: ill check lol [17:04] sacarlson1: nope [17:05] would my /network help? [17:05] err /interfaces [17:05] dcohen613: does the computer also have a built in ethernet device? [17:05] sacarlson1: thats what im talking about, thats what it’s plugged into [17:05] bazhang, what do you mean? [17:05] sacarlson1: it only has one ethernet plug and it’s in there [17:05] dcohen613: oh then it's not a pci slot card [17:06] bazhang, I installed them with the lubuntu installer :? [17:06] sacarlson1: bazhang - my /interfaces: auto lo iface lo inet loopback #i added this next part myself auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp [17:07] Hi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8870081/ I am facing problem with update . [17:07] kindly help [17:07] inerkick, did you change the repos? [17:07] what repos [17:08] sources list? [17:08] inerkick, the ones from the link we have given you to read, twice now [17:08] ok [17:08] sure will read it again thanks bazhang [17:08] dcohen613: I'm almost out of ideas. on some kernel modules you can add params to remape interupts and things. we might find that as the next thing to try. or at least reload the module [17:08] sacarlson1: how do i do that? [17:09] dcohen613: we would have to find the name of the module maybe with lsmod [17:09] sacarlson1: ok if this doesn’t work ill just reinsall LOL [17:09] dcohen613: with the error you see in init it may not even be loaded [17:10] dcohen613, the driver is the e1000e [17:10] dcohen613, http://askubuntu.com/questions/201441/wired-internet-not-working-with-an-intel-82579lm-nic [17:10] bazhang: oh cool dcohen613 so now you even know what you should see and what we can reload [17:10] bazhang: the issue with that is they see the eth0 interface [17:11] dcohen613, getting the drivers will allow that [17:11] Surendil: I restarted ....its working fine for now...let me see if it starts acting up... [17:11] bazhang: dcohen613 yes but it sounds like it doesn't have some needed resorce at init time like maybe an interupt address or other [17:11] bazhang: how do i install drivers via terminal? i can try connecting to wifi [17:12] futterwacken: let's hope not [17:12] hello [17:12] OK tomorrow... [17:12] dcohen613: the driver is already installed we are just going to unload and reload it into mem [17:12] sacarlson1: how do i do that? [17:12] Surendil Thanks for the help.. [17:13] futterwacken: that's why we are here! =) [17:13] after some headache, I've succeeded in installing and configuring ubuntu (lubuntu, to be precise) as I want it on an office machine which used to run windows xp, now I have a question [17:13] dcohen613: first we need to take a look at lsmod to see if we see the e1000 module installed [17:13] $lsmod [17:13] I'd like to install the same os with the same configuration on other identical machines [17:14] MaxFrames: do they have same hardware? [17:14] is there some equivalent to sysprep in the ubuntu world, to clone a machine and restore the image on an identical machine, and just enter some parameters like hostname, etc? [17:14] sacarlson1: i see something named e100e [17:14] hey, so is the ubuntu default to have it not ever perform an automatic filesystem check at boot time? [17:14] dcohen613: that must be it [17:14] sacarlson1: whats next step? [17:14] also considering these machines will be members of an active directory domain, the machine which would serve as the image is already joined to the domain [17:15] Surendil: exact same [17:15] dcohen613: sudo modprobe -r e100e [17:15] MaxFrames: then use Norton ghost and be happy for eternity [17:15] dcohen613: sudo modprobe e100e [17:15] GlenK, it's automatic after a certain number of boots, iirc [17:15] but wouldn't this create a machine with the same hostname and other individual parameters? [17:15] sacarlson1: no output for either :| [17:15] Someone known with nginx? [17:15] GlenK, if you mean fsck [17:16] sacarlson1: thats with sudo modprobe e1000e (not 100 [17:16] ) [17:16] MaxFrames: it will clone the computer, just change name host and parameters you need, that's i [17:16] GlenK: its n-times of starts or if it reached a specific timeframe [17:16] it [17:16] I'd like something like sysprep, where you enter these unique values the first time you boot the clone [17:16] Jeroen1, try #nginx [17:16] Thanks dude :) [17:16] bazhang: a filesystem check, yes. odd then. max mount count was set to 0 on this system and time thingy was off too. [17:16] if I change the hostname, I will have to do that offline, or it will rename the source machine in the domain, right? [17:16] !clonezilla [17:16] I missed the link from bazhang sent I haven't read that yet [17:16] kde4 and ubuntu how? [17:17] kde5 [17:17] install kubuntu-desktop nullbyte_ [17:17] k1l: if we're talkign ext4 or whatever yes. I'm wondering what the ubuntu default is. [17:17] sacarlson1: no output :O [17:17] dcohen613: there is no output from modprobe unless something goes wrong [17:17] nullbyte_, then check the topic of #kubuntu on getting kde5 [17:17] if it's zero, why, or if someone turned it off on my end then I'm wondering why the heck they would do that. [17:17] MaxFrames: not really, you would have conflict ip first, but changing host and reboot will do the trick [17:17] sacarlson1: ok awesome so whats th enext step [17:18] hi I need one software that can make usb booable. I am using ubuntu 14.04 [17:18] GlenK: what ubuntu and what filesystems? [17:18] ok [17:18] Nady: whats your current operating system? [17:18] dcohen613: see if ifconfig eth0 up ; works [17:18] I'm a bit surprised by the suggestion of norton ghost [17:18] k1l: 12 LTS upgraded to 14 LTS, ext4 [17:18] being it is linux, wouldn't clonezilla be more adequate? does norton even run on linux? [17:18] Ubuntu 14.04 [17:18] and isn't it payware anyway? [17:19] MaxFrames, norton ghost? skip that [17:19] GlenK: the ubuntu standard is set to a specific count number, not 0 [17:19] MaxFrames: i use norton from hireboot [17:19] sacarlson1: no such device :X [17:19] dcohen613: I assume you did both lines of sudo modprobe -r e100e ; sudo modprobe e100e ; [17:19] yes [17:19] Surendil, thats not good advice at all [17:19] do you mean hiren's bootcd? [17:19] bazhang: it's all your then [17:19] dcohen613: look in the /var/log/syslog to see what our reload did [17:19] Does anyone knwo a good tutorial of setting cronjobs? [17:20] Surendil, there are linux specific packages for that [17:20] !cron [17:20] cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto [17:20] dcohen613: also we should read that link that bazhang sent as it sound related to your problem [17:20] if there are no gotchas in just renaming the machine, and it will be seen like a totally different machine, no conflicts with the source machine, I guess I will clone with clonezilla [17:20] MaxFrames: yeap, but anyway, bazhang surelly have better ideas than me [17:20] sacarlson1: i see tons of stuff for e1000e when i grep [17:20] help please... I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and I need bootable usb creater [17:20] sacarlson1: nothing look sbad though [17:21] hello - I am runnign xubuntu 14.04, and trying to connect a projector (benq pe7800) through dvi cable.. nothing shows up in configuration settings.. Intel integrated graphic chipset. Any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting? In might be the cable for all I know (altough it should be ok) [17:21] Nady: you’re currently running ubuntu and want to make an ubuntu flash inside of ubuntu, correct? [17:21] and what if the destination hardware is slightly different? or even not so slightly? any chance ubuntu will work anyway, is it hardware agnostic like windows is? [17:21] yes [17:21] dcohen613: I'm going to take a read http://askubuntu.com/questions/201441/wired-internet-not-working-with-an-intel-82579lm-nic that bazhang sent [17:22] sacarlson1: ok thanks [17:22] Nady: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu [17:22] was there some compiz update pushed out recently? [17:22] all of a sudden compiz is chewing through cpu and making my desktop sloooooowwww doooowwwnn [17:23] I appreciate friend ... Thank you so much [17:24] dcohen613: no it's not the same as they still see there interface with ifconfig. I don't understand if the module loads ok why it can't be seen [17:25] dcohen613: what verison ubuntu is this any way? [17:25] dcohen613 I appreciate it [17:25] GlenK: since 13.10, its maximum count -1 for ext4 partitions [17:26] GlenK: but it should not make a check every boot. do you have hardware errors in the logs that trigger that checks? [17:26] sacarlson1: ubuntu server 14.04.1 [17:26] dcohen613: can you boot a live cd to see if it also has the same problem? [17:27] dcohen613: or usb [17:27] Is there any way I can install Visual studio in ubuntu 14.04 [17:27] check the appdb nady [17:28] !appdb | Nady [17:28] Nady: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [17:28] sacarlson1: not easily, but ill format the server as a last resort [17:28] then join #winehq Nady [17:28] dcohen613: you can boot an iso from grub also [17:28] ok baddy let me see [17:30] sacarlson1: the only bootable media i have access to is the usb drive i installed with [17:30] dcohen613: that's fine [17:31] sacarlson1: ok i can try that in a minute - but do you know what interface em1 is? [17:31] dcohen613: nope [17:31] dcohen613: why is it on the ifconfig list? [17:32] sacarlson1: great question [17:32] How do I read errors in a logfile? I know where it is located (/var/log/nginx) but what do I've to type to read it? [17:33] dcohen613: you can name an lan interface anything you want. they just default most the time to ethX and wlanX [17:33] sacarlson1: this is a default install i didnt change it lol [17:33] Hello. The command "lpinfo -m" return "lpinfo: Internal Server Error" and I have problems with the cups... Someone have some idea about the cause of this problem? [17:34] Jeroen1: "less /var/log/nginx" is one way, or "cat /var/log/nginx" [17:34] dcohen613: you should have told me there was something else on the ifconfig list then that may be the working device [17:34] bleh gives back that it is a directory :/ [17:34] sacarlson1: ok well thats there sorry [17:35] dcohen613: oh ok then lets try it. does it have an IP address? [17:35] Jeroen1: so look inside the /var/log/nginx/ directory for the logs [17:35] sacarlson1: no. [17:35] how could I do that zykotick9? :P [17:35] sacarlson1: im just gonna reformat LOL [17:35] I'm a noob [17:36] Jeroen1: try "cd /var/log/nginx" then "ls" then "less filename" [17:36] dcohen613: ha ha ok ya after this much time I would at least boot the live cd to see if the net device works and find out the name with ifconfig [17:37] Is LXLE a good distro for Squid Server? [17:37] Jeroen1: fyi, once you are in less, use q to quit [17:37] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2150517 dcohen [17:37] ach quit [17:38] Capprentice, what is lxle [17:38] Capprentice: ask ##linux of lxle support (whereever that is) [17:39] (and for server i would not use a desktop) === morpheus is now known as Guest7526 [17:41] Salut les gens !

[19:48] Nady, having partitions numerically out of order left to right looking at gparted is an issue when doing resizing....etc [19:48] gauravz99: what is the exact error you get for ubuntu, and what is the exact error you get for windows? [19:49] OerHeks: It seems to be related to how Ubuntu is passing the link to firefox [19:49] Not an issue with Firefox. [19:49] trijntje: you mount the nfs by mtab and fstab?

[19:58] Kira9204: so I just went with 64K because it was the default selected ... :P [19:59] but I sure would like to know whats the story with this ... [19:59] gauravz99: create right partitions for ubuntu, try not to delete any other windows partition, install GRUB on right partition. [20:00] Surendil: i am noob here, can you please refer me to some article ? [20:00] Surendil, You are giving really broad not really helpful, be careful here, there are many here who know this stuff exactly. [20:00] join #ubuntu-discuss [20:01] gauravz99, Run that bootinfo script from the bot prompt on the live cd and pastebin all the data in the script to a pastebin [20:01] http://i.imgur.com/mW2dY5I.png === jasonjang is now known as hl1sxa [20:02] gauravz99: bubbasaures will help you [20:02] Surendil: ok thanks :) [20:02] zetheroo1: intresting, i have always thought of it backwards :O The more you know(tm) [20:03] Nady, Is sda1 unmounted, right click it and check if there is a unmount option [20:03] Kira9204: yes .. ha ... now I am totally confused :D === testBOT is now known as Guest97259 [20:03] zer [20:03] bubbasaures: i am trying to run - sudo bootinfoscript, it's giving an error - command not found [20:04] zetheroo1: most sites seems to suggest the same, smaller is better for large files [20:04] bubbasaures yes unmount option is active [20:04] Nady, as well sda1 has to be at the start of the HD, you do not want anything in front of it. [20:04] gauravz99, You have to unzip the download than run the command [20:05] slightly confusing when you thinks in chunks per read but...Ok... [20:05] gauravz99: do you have a backup of all data you had on windows? In that case its probably easiest to remove the ubuntu partitions and just start the installation again [20:05] https://www.google.gr/maps/@37.984591,23.6477967,3a,22.1y,212.08h,100.29t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sPAtMSgv5zIm5oJt67xJbYQ!2e0?hl=el [20:05] Nady, Why would you want to move the left side of sda1? [20:05] gauravz99: see http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/install-ubuntu-desktop [20:06] trijntje : no :( [20:06] bubbasaures I want to make some space free so I can install other operating system [20:06] 14.10, hibernate doesn't resume anymore (it says PulseAudio). did a fresh install but the same thing happens now [20:06] haven't changed any of the audio hardware on this laptop [20:06] trijntje: i can still access the drive that has windows, but not the sda2 which had the usefull stuff [20:07] Nady, That is fine, What other OS's? [20:07] Kira9204: ok, so I guess 64K was an ok choice then .... I could have gone to 4MB ;) [20:07] windows 8.1 [20:07] gauravz99: why do you think sda2 has your files? That partition is only 100MB in size [20:07] bubbasaures windows 8.1 [20:08] Nady, Ah cool, you actually want it first on the HD, can you just wipe the disk and install W8 now than ubuntu? [20:09] bubbasaures I will lose the data in that case [20:09] Nady, your not going to be good with windows after ubuntu on the HD is all, that is a no no. Backup your ubuntu data,install W8 than ubuntu again. [20:10] im not into this particular case but should't a grub-install /dev/sdX fix any mbr issues? [20:10] why reinstall when you only need to repair grub [20:10] Nady, If you had more skills I would say just resize sda1 and clone it and load it in a logical partion after install W8. [20:12] bubbasaures i can do that and have done it before on other computer. but this time i want to try from ubuntu to windows [20:12] Kira9204, can you identify exactly what your referencing, rather than just commenting,we all like good help. [20:13] Nady, Try what? You have made a fundamental mistake putting ubuntu in sda1. You could have made a extended and installed ubuntu, leaving a unallocated at the front of the HD for windows. [20:13] bubbasaures: the above post, i know windows->linux is usually the way to go but a grub install after windoes is installed should fix it [20:13] bubbasaures i want to install visual studio on ubuntu ... is that possible [20:14] Kira9204, This is not a boot isuue. [20:14] bubbasaures: - still unable to run - http://pastebin.com/xqNnxLr2 [20:14] Nady: I would not recommend it [20:15] ah, ok. I just usually see the "reinstall both" option way to often [20:15] bubbasaures I understand , you are right . I am new to ubuntu [20:15] Nady: see https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=892 [20:15] gauravz99: sudo ./bootinfoscript [20:15] gauravz99, Unpack the zip of the bootinfo download in Downloads and run this command. sudo ~/Downloads/bootinfoscript [20:16] Nady: seems not to be supported that well. that well meaning doesnt run in most cases [20:16] gauravz99: basically, the current directory in not in your PATH by default [20:16] zerowaitstate: thanks :) [20:17] Nady: better see alternatives that focusing on the exact app. see http://askubuntu.com/questions/6588/is-there-a-visual-studio-style-tool-ide [20:17] gauravz99: you should make a backup of your important files before doing anything else [20:17] Nady, All fixable, easiest would be reinstalling in my world, but I am set uup for that sort of thing to be done fast, however a clone of the ubuntu is okay and a reload. Clones though generally have to have equal partition sizes at the least for a reload, the reload can be resized. [20:18] trijntje: :( , don't have spare disk, only small usb [20:18] bubbasaures: - bootinfoscript output - http://pastebin.com/hHMxedxe [20:19] bubbasaures I am going to install windows 8.1 now. appreciate your help [20:19] gauravz99: its foolish to have no backups in any case. If you are going to change partitions or install another operating system you should ALWAYS have a backup of all important data [20:19] is Qt in Ubuntu by default? [20:19] k1l Thank you [20:19] gauravz99, open the "RESULTS.txt" and copy and paste all the info to a pastebin [20:20] gauravz99, THe issue trijntje has been addressing backups is a real pertinent missing detail, that insures you are covered no matter what. [20:21] anyone here know how to move a home folder's contents to another account in the same partition [20:22] bubbasaures: - correct bootinfoscript output - http://pastebin.com/67dEQWMb [20:22] Nady, NO problem, I have W8.1/W10 and 3 other OS on my computer [20:22] hope, it works out [20:22] Is there a way for udev to pass a environment variable (like the KERNEL device of a connected USB drive) to the called script? [20:22] heyho, I have trouble with this Regex: if [[ $1 =~ ^-{1,2} ]]; [20:22] it should get everything starting with - or -- but it allows --- too [20:23] Is there option to make full HDD backup after Ubuntu instalment to just write this "template" on disk if there will be a need for that? [20:23] Novice201y: you can use clonezilla for that [20:23] bubbasaures I tried windows 10 [20:24] gauravz99, That is a dynamic HD you can't install ubuntu, without that being changed. [20:25] bubbasaures: - you mean i need to change my hd ? [20:26] Nady, I like W10 better that W8.1, but I'm a 99% open source user, just need word for writing grad papers. [20:26] bubbasaures are you a student ? [20:26] OERIAS yes ... simply copy the home folder as root and change the ownership to the new group and user [20:26] gauravz99, Well not exactly, you need to look up dynamic setups is all, a little research, it can be converted. [20:27] Nady, Off topic here but on occasion yes I work on a my masters grad work, heheh. [20:27] bubbasaures: - ok, can you please help me fix my partitions & windows, i will fix dynamic hd later ? [20:27] corax: you can always use 'cp -p' and preserve perms [20:28] nvmd, got some hint [20:28] gauravz99, Do you have the recovery or install disc for windows? [20:29] bubbasaures I understand this is off topic. You seem to be pretty helpful. is there any way we can chat later too ? maybe on yahoo or facebook ? [20:29] i have windows iso & a usb, but the disk creator in ubuntu fails to detect the iso [20:29] Surendil but you wanna switch to the new username ... and not preserve the old one used in the original home folder .. i presume [20:29] gauravz99: that doesnt work with windows. [20:29] gauravz99: please ask the windows guys how to get a windows bootable stick. [20:30] Nady, It just seems I'm helpful, in this instance I just stuck with your issue to conclusion, many here are much higher qualified. I don't really use those services but tanks for the thought. ;) [20:30] I see the word windows a lot in this chat room ... which is called ubuntu [20:30] thanks* [20:30] how can i fix, once i have windows usb ? [20:31] GRUB doesn't want to be installed during Minimal installation. What can I do? [20:31] bubbasaures it does not matter , but you have will to help thats what most important . [20:31] gauravz99, There are a couple of commands you would run from the booted windows disk and it's terminal reached, to reload the mbr with the windows loader. [20:32] Novice201y, Always has when I have done it, are you familiar with this install? [20:32] bubbasaures:any reference tutorial ? [20:32] bubbasaures, I'm new to Minimal. [20:33] friends my windows 8.1 virtual machine is so close and i can't zoom out [20:34] haidora: virtualbox? ask in #vbox [20:34] bubbasaures Can we be friends ? because I am going to close this chat and install windows but I would like to chat with you later . [20:35] corax2, but i get folder permission issues when i copy the file as root [20:36] gauravz99, All over the web, I would ask in ##windows for a good mbr reload link and let thewm know grub is there at the moment in the mbr, has to be fixed with commands, not a autorepair. [20:36] OERIAS: then, change folders permissions for users with 'chown' [20:36] http://raw.pro-chan.com/Raw/t/674_1382207920 this virtual box [20:36] Nady, I have not one friend via the net to be honest, and rather few personally, I'm a bit over the top- in general. lol. [20:37] bubbasaures: ok [20:37] Surendil, how? [20:37] OERIAS that is why you use chgrp and chown to set all the folders and files to the correct username [20:37] thank you everyone, especially bubbasaures :) [20:37] gauravz99, I'm in ##windows I will keep an eye on the help, you know peer review. [20:37] bubbasaures okay no problem... bye and thanks again [20:37] OERIAS: chown -R user.user /path/to/folder [20:38] bubbasaures: thanks :) cya [20:38] Whenever I change my volume, the music skips. Does anyone know how to fix this? [20:38] OERIAS: but anyway, you should also read 'man chown' to understand the command [20:39] open terminal go to the home directory ( cd /home ) write chown USERNAME USERNAME -r [20:40] Novice201y, So is this a dual boot install or just ubuntu? [20:41] bubbasaures, Just Lubuntu. I tried to install Lilo instead of GRUB, but now it searches for /dev/sbd1 to boot === uwishununoware is now known as uwishuno [20:42] Novice201y: any reason for lilo? [20:42] Novice201y, Why lilo? Is there an install at this time of ubuntu? [20:42] Do I have to speak in code? I don't understand why people ignore this question wherever I ask it. [20:43] k1l, bubbasaures, becauase I need to have this operating system operational today. [20:43] hey i am installing a .deb file and did a dpkg --info filename.deb... [20:43] OniInu, Never heard of this happening to start with, you have to have some patience. [20:43] it said ther eare some dependencies [20:43] OniInu: see what command the multimedia key sends to the system. maybe that is the problem. [20:43] should i instll the file using dpkg -i filename.deb [20:43] and if so will dpkg take care of all dependencies [20:44] Novice201y: grub is well integrated in ubuntu and should work ootb. so why lilo? [20:44] How do I see what command the multimedia key sends to the system? [20:44] Novice201y, Is ubuntu installed as of now? [20:44] eb0t: where did you obtain it? [20:44] k1l, Cause installation of GRUB throws critical error. [20:44] from a reputable website that makes the tool [20:44] daftykins [20:44] eb0t: why the .deb file? what program is that and is this not in the repos? [20:44] bubbasaures, Not now - during actual installation, all HDD has been wiped. [20:44] eb0t: repos are more appropriate than package downloads [20:45] okay.. Have a good day. [20:45] Novice201y, Can you use a regular live disk to install? [20:45] yes but its not in the repo daftykins so how do i handle it [20:45] Novice201y: i would work out the grub error instead of changing to the next program that will have another errors [20:45] i could just install using dpkg -i filename.deb [20:45] the question is does dpkg take care of any dependencies or do i have to do that manually [20:45] !bootrepair | Novice201y that is for grub repair [20:45] Novice201y that is for grub repair: Boot-Repair is a simple tool to repair frequent boot issues you may encounter in Ubuntu. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair for more info. [20:46] eb0t: i'm saying *they* probably provide a repo you can add [20:46] bubbasaures, I use pendrive with Minimal .iso [20:46] ah good point [20:46] but if they dont [20:46] eb0t: its better to add that repo to yours /etc/sources.list in that case so you will get updates and whatnot from it, but yes, sudo dpkg -i will install a deb packuage [20:46] Novice201y, It may be that the HD and the USB have gotten switched, so you grub install needs to be in the HD where ubuntu is put, sdX no partition [20:46] eb0t: cross that bridge if and when you come to it ;) [20:46] eb0t: it cant magically solve depency issues. it can install depencies but not solve them if the .deb conflicts with other [20:47] */etc/apt/sources.list [20:47] ah ok k1l [20:47] bubbasaures, The same with Lilo. [20:47] Novice201y, When you boot with a usb it can become the sda rather thyan the internal being sda. [20:47] eb0t, if it is "from a reputable website¨ why not tell what package? [20:47] and if you install a .deb package how do you keep it updated [20:47] Kira9204: dont put 3rd party stuff in the souces.list. ubuntu got sources.list.d for that [20:47] bubbasaures, Exactly. [20:48] i dont think the package matters ..im really just tryingto learn how to deal with .deb files derhe [20:48] derheks [20:48] eb0t: you can't [20:48] foobar.deb [20:48] eb0t: you have to keep manually downloading newer packages, which is why you should find a repo for this program :) [20:48] eb0t, manually installing a .deb gives no updates, ubuntu does not know where to look. [20:48] who cares what its called ...everyone was asking in linux ...and when i told them it didnt help [20:48] ah thanks daftykins ...didnt know that [20:48] bubbasaures, How can I set correct folders in /dev for HDD and pendrive? [20:49] Novice201y, Honestly all ubuntu installs are pretty straight forward with a few skills, so your issue here seems more like an user of software error, the lilo use is a waste of time. [20:49] of=or* [20:49] bubbasaures, I can install GRUB now. [20:49] eb0t: some programs are known to break the system. and for some there are packages in official ubuntu repos. or known PPAs that dont break the system [20:49] is there a cloud solution (file, calendar and other shizzle) for ubuntu? [20:49] Novice201y, IN what context? [20:49] eb0t: so actually you are on the path to shoot yourself in the foot. that is why we ask [20:49] nice one k1l [20:50] this is the info i really wanted [20:50] bubbasaures, Can I replace LILO with GRUB now? And what about exchanged sdX for HDD and pendrive? [20:50] emx: like owncloud? [20:50] emx, use more words. if you're asking if there's an app like product X for ubuntu, name product X [20:50] all the pros and cons of installing a deb [20:50] trijntje, yes [20:50] emx: there is owncloud. but use the one from owncloud PPA, the ubuntu packages are quite outdated [20:51] Novice201y, Dude lilo is a waste of time. [20:51] !owncloud [20:51] k, thanks [20:51] Novice201y: did you even bother to take a look into bootrepair? [20:52] Novice201y, Problem here is you have a goal and methods you think will work, and are ignoring my comments on this, so we are just running in cirsles. [20:52] k1l, I'll do it now. Sorry [20:52] circles* [20:52] Novice201y: since you dont seem to know what you are doing (no pun intended) i would really suggest you try bootrepair, since it got automated scripts to solve known issues with grub [20:52] +1 bootrepiar on this === MeltedLux is now known as MeltedDed [20:56] lilo is excellent for windows boot when the mbr is broken and no MS repair is available === MeltedDed is now known as MeltedLux [20:57] Hi, I'm tryting to connect my computer via ethernet instead of wi-fi and I don't think my ethernet card is being recognized properly [20:58] Guest36991, This an internal?

[21:18] shiggitay, Please don't just post anyone, the channels askes for 10 min intervals and details and patience. [21:18] I didn't ask my question again... I was just wondering if anyone had any idea @ bubbasaures [21:18] marko-_- The linux version is older is all, not the latest, adobe is not exactly linux friendly. [21:19] oh i see [21:19] adobe reader plays the video for a milisecond and then shows an codec error [21:19] shiggitay, The point is "anyone" means nothing but to you, and is a waste, stick with the issue when you post. [21:19] i guess i'll have to move to windows for this one [21:20] I had the same issues with adobe reader long ago, I had to have a DRM module that nothing on linux supports. [21:20] marko-_-: what is the issue that you are having?

[21:22] marko-_-: a pdf with a video embedded you mean? [21:22] Every installation guide insists it run as root for some reason. [21:22] bprompt, yes [21:22] ohh...hmmm [21:22] So just install adobe reader 9 marko-_- [21:22] marko-_-, Just a guess on my part is all, sounds like you have some options with file types and media players. [21:22] sudo dpkg -i adobereaderfile [21:23] After you d/l it of course.

[21:27] Is your aspergers acting up today bubbasaures? === Owner__ is now known as Guest54731 [21:27] Snofroe: No problem. I'm not doing anything fancy, just outputting motion to AVI so YMMV. [21:27] Snofroe, lol I'm not a aspie, but thanks for asking. [21:28] Then calm yourself down already [21:28] Plenty of things work horrible on linux, others work great. [21:28] Ignoring the things that don't work as if they don't exist will never make Ubuntu or *nix any better. [21:29] Snofroe, Heh, I am calm is why I ask you to like actually add to the channel, and not pick stupid fights based on your lack of self ego support; you moron. [21:29] Besides, you don't seem to understand what rhetoric is. Name calling, nice.

[21:36] how about WINE? https://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=847 [21:37] what tools are there to monitor transfer speeds? [21:39] emx, Generally the transference shows the speed, what is the actual end goal? [21:40] and what transfer? [21:40] bubbasaures, i want to estimate how long it takes to write a file to a usb drive. [21:41] emx, Heh, good luck depends on a few outliers/variables...etc [21:41] Kira9204, you might want to read about acrobat reader instead of pro https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=27093 [21:41] there is ano mean emx [21:41] bubbasaures, i said estimate, not calculate :P [21:41] no* [21:42] emx, I would like to estimate the first landing of the aleain overlords to. ; [21:42] ;)* [21:43] emx, well usb1/2/3 have specific speed min and max, within that are file or types of transfer...etc, is this a personal thing an assignment? [21:45] bubbasaures, i just want a monitor like vmstat. nothing fancy. [21:45] doesn't have to be accurate [21:45] ciao [21:47] emx, Cool have you tried man vmstat [21:47] I'm assuming that info might be there [21:47] bubbasaures, i found the overall io. i prefere io per device [21:48] emx, Ah, I guess this is really beyond my real help, sorry to have not just gotten this detail to start with. [21:48] I missed most of this conversation but, what about iostat? [21:48] bubbasaures, no problem [21:49] ildefonso, checking [21:49] ildefonso, something like that, yes [21:49] thanks [21:52] Opensuse just seems faster [21:53] what the fuck is going on [21:53] what the everliving fuck [21:53] is going on [21:53] i mean, what in the world [21:53] what in the fuckin' world [21:53] is happenin' [21:53] is it goin' alright [21:53] haha [21:53] is it? [21:53] or is it goin' ain't alright [21:53] what drugs do to apes... [21:54] "has left"... how decent :) [21:54] emx: no need to comment === sins-_p is now known as sins- [21:56] long time not seeing something like that on an IRC channel. [21:58] ildefonso: what did i miss? by ignoring stati? [22:01] nopf, some guy (or was it a bot?) entered the room and started to repeat variations over a phrase, using language that was just not nice (and that I won't repeat). [22:01] I did something dumb while migrating to trusty and now the migration tool is invisible, along with the unity panel. I don't want to reboot for fear of interrupting the process, so how can I check if it is finished? [22:01] chunkymonkey, check process list (ps uaxwwf) [22:01] right, ildefonso but which one do I look for? [22:01] chunkymonkey, and I bet the upgrade tool runs "screen", which means you should be able to attach to it. [22:04] chunkymonkey, something like "dpkg" or "apt" or maybe "SCREEN" (yes, uppercase) [22:04] ildefonso: well, care about pasting me 2 lines in private? and why didn't i see it? was it in quit messages? [22:04] ildefonso: do-release-upgrade said "no new release found" Does that mean it is finished? [22:05] chunkymonkey, I wouldn't bet my life on it. [22:05] ... i thought the ignored things were in the irssi logs here still, but they aren't :/ [22:07] nopf, no idea why you didn't see them... but the nick was "johnson5" [22:09] nopf, anyway, here you go: http://pastebin.com/XR9XqvZT [22:10] ildefonso: oh my.... *now* i see it. i thought that already was johnson5's reaction to something even weirder that i did miss :O .... thanks for clearing that up :) [22:10] ildefonso: yeah, now it really wasn't necessary. thanks though :) [22:10] nopf, yeah, after you made me read it again, select it, and even copy it! :P [22:11] ciao [22:11] ildefonso: i'm just not a fast typer today, sorry :/ [22:11] salut à tous ! [22:12] seb__: salut ! [22:12] chunkymonkey, were you able to spot the process? [22:12] salut @william101 ;-) [22:13] ildefonso: I also see its tmp folder, but I don't know what files to look for [22:14] chunkymonkey, you are stretching my memory, I have not used do-release-upgrade for quite some time (I didn't use it for 13.xx -> 14.04 upgrade). [22:14] chunkymonkey, maybe, take ps uaxwwf output and paste it somewhere, if I see the process I will recognize it. [22:15] chunkymonkey: what is your issue? [22:16] k1l, he lost access to the pts where he was running do-release-upgrade, and now he doesn't know if it finished or not. [22:18] k1l, I am not sure, but I believe do-release-upgrade would fire a "screen" session, if so, he should be able to attach to that session. [22:18] hello every one [22:18] chunkymonkey: was it the gui updater or the cli command? [22:18] I am here with my qt3.14 gf [22:19] hello o3, is your name related to some blue-coloured gas?

[22:32] * ildefonso wonder how many people comes here daily speaking in whatever language? [22:32] * ildefonso wonders if someone came here writing in Japanese... [22:33] 誰？ [22:33] ildefonso: the channel is for ubuntu support dicussion in english [22:33] ildefonso: if you need alternative language support the loco channels can offer that [22:33] ikonia, I know that :) [22:33] ok, then why are you making silly "wondering" comment [22:34] .. [22:34] ikonia, I just noticed a lot of people comes into the channel writing in.. whatever language. [22:35] and I was curious if that was really common. [22:35] but why on earth did you speaketh it out loud as it was obviously silly in ikonia's opinion [22:36] probably best to drop it [22:37] is it actually allowed to wonder here? [22:37] it's not really the channel for it [22:38] what if they wonder about ubuntu related things [22:38] onla, don't be rude, it is not necessary. the comment was off-topic, it seems. [22:39] no i'm saying the wondering was ubuntu related [22:39] onla, also, some people don't like to have fun from time to time. [22:39] guys, come on. since this channel is sometimes crowded with people seeking for help we have a seperate channel for all the chitchat. there you can talk, wonder or discuss things: #ubuntu-offtopic [22:39] but actually no one is asking for help right now [22:39] k1l, you have to admit that ikonia was a bit rude, and onla didn't like that, I can also understand that. [22:41] onla: that doesnt matter, because if someone asks for help and you are asked to stop offtopic you will say: but the other person was allowed. so i muted you now since you have no interests to follow the guidelines. [22:45] sigh... I thought this was a good place to hang around and help people in need (I don't have a need to be here, you know?, 20 years of Linux experience are enough to be self-sufficient), but with that attitude, I will use my talent at helping people somewhere else. [22:45] k1l : I think you abuse your power, you force things upon people instead of negotiating: that's being a dictator, not a moderator. Don't bother to kick me out, I am leaving now.
