| CarlFK | conky looks neat. um.. how do I make it run on boot, or when x starts, or what ever so I don't have to type anything :p | 00:01 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: add it to the startup apps | 00:01 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: open the dash and type startup | 00:01 |
| CarlFK | EriC^^: er.. I need to do this as part of a script. any idea what cli way? | 00:02 |
| CarlFK | google got me to ~/.config/autostart except what goes in there is daunting | 00:03 |
| EriC^^ | add it to ~/.config/autostart as a .desktop file | 00:03 |
| CarlFK | lol | 00:03 |
| CarlFK | yeah, what's a .desktop file? | 00:03 |
| EriC^^ | add a command from the startup apps | 00:03 |
| cryptodan | You can also install Conky Manager | 00:03 |
| EriC^^ | and you'll get a skeleton | 00:03 |
| OerHeks | Why cli way? conky does not run in terminal | 00:04 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: use cat << EOF in your script to write it | 00:04 |
| CarlFK | OerHeks: so I can make this part of a setup script that runs at the end of the os install | 00:04 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: install Conky Manager and you can set it to auto-start that way | 00:05 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan .. i hate to ask.. but does set it to auto-start involve clicking? | 00:06 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: yes it does | 00:06 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: cat << EOF is your friend | 00:06 |
| EriC^^ | cat << EOF > ~/.config/autostart/conkystart.desktop | 00:06 |
| EriC^^ | get a skeleton from any command you add | 00:07 |
| EriC^^ | ( a template ) | 00:07 |
| cosmos_ | amarok doesnt play MPEG-1 layer 3 (mp3) and cant install plugin for that, it says: | 00:07 |
| cosmos_ | Package dependencies cannot be resolved | 00:07 |
| cosmos_ | This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Furthermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time | 00:07 |
| cryptodan | ConkyManager is the easier way to do it no CLI needed | 00:08 |
| EriC^^ | cryptodan: he wants to incorporate it into a script | 00:08 |
| cryptodan | A start up script? If so Conky Manager can do that | 00:08 |
| CarlFK | https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/var/www/lc/late.sh#L42 | 00:08 |
| EriC^^ | cryptodan: a script that runs after the os installs | 00:08 |
| CarlFK | that script if it helps with context | 00:08 |
| cryptodan | So a script to install conky? | 00:09 |
| EriC^^ | cryptodan: i asssume so, and to set it to autostart | 00:09 |
| EriC^^ | cryptodan: unless he intends to hand out high tech robots with his os installs i think cat << EOF will have to suffice | 00:10 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: do you intend to hand out high tech robots with your os install? | 00:10 |
| CarlFK | EriC^^: I like the sound of that... I'll add that to my TODO | 00:11 |
| EriC^^ | :D | 00:11 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: what is the purpose of this? | 00:12 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan - um.. this late.sh, or this conky or ? | 00:12 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: your script what does it do or what are your intentions | 00:13 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan there are lots of comments in the script. like the first bit ## ssh greating: cpu, ubuntu ver, firewire guids # add the cpu name/speed and ubuntu flavor to login greeting | 00:14 |
| CarlFK | pretty much imagine running it once you were done installing ubuntu | 00:14 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: I get that, but what for? | 00:15 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan - setting up boxes to record talks at conferences | 00:15 |

| ted_ | i have a partition that is showing up on my desktop which is an old partition that does not exist anymore (and not in my fstab file either). I cant mount it, it is just an annoying icon. Any idea of how to get rid of it? | 00:16 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: why not just install a webcam and a microphone and have it telecast to YouTube for a live stream or use twitch.tv I believe | 00:17 |
| bubbasaures | ted_, Must be a link send it to the trash or delete | 00:17 |
| dominic1134 | Hello! Is it possible to build multiple packages using ONE recipe in ONE ppa. I am trying to build three packages (not arch dependend) but I just can't find the information on how to tell launchpad (or the bzr-builder) to use three different subdirectories to start building. The project im working on is: https://code.launchpad.net/~open-as-team/open-as-cgw/trunk | 00:17 |
| tapout | under vmware, is there a way to get opengl working? I tried the opengl tutorials and it complains "Failed to open GLFW window. If you have an Intel GPU, they are not 3.3 compatible. Try the 2.1 version of the tutorials." | 00:17 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan cuz thats how you make a sucky video. | 00:17 |
| tapout | I want to do the 3.3 tutorials :) | 00:17 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: with todays webcams? I hardly do not think that is the case | 00:18 |
| bazhang | tapout, try #vmware | 00:18 |
| tapout | roger | 00:18 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan feel free to recommend that to your local TV station. I am sure they will be all over it ;) | 00:19 |
| OerHeks | dominic1134, you might want to ask this in #launchpad too | 00:19 |
| ted_ | bubbasaures: i cant delete it :-/ (This is xubuntu mind you) | 00:19 |
| dominic1134 | OerHeks, good idea, thanks | 00:19 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: my front facing iphone camera does great as does my front facing Samsung 12.2" Tablet Camera they record at 1080p | 00:19 |
| bubbasaures | ted_ You can put a delete in your right click, dconf-editor user and root. | 00:20 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan - yeah, try not to shake so much. and nicer audio please. | 00:20 |
| EriC^^ | ted_: what do you mean showing on your desktop? | 00:21 |
| cryptodan | I get great audio, and they make tripods for that | 00:21 |
| EriC^^ | ah nevermind | 00:21 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan - for some value of great. let me know when you have one of these up and we will do some A B testing. | 00:22 |
| bubbasaures | ted_, Might this be helpful, kinda hard to tell at lest for me the origin of this icon. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2237276 | 00:22 |
| deathstash | hello everyone | 00:22 |
| CarlFK | ~/.config/autostart$ cat cronky.desktop .. Type=Application ? | 00:24 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: All I am saying is why try and re-invent the wheel when there is technology in place that already does a great job at what you want to do. | 00:24 |
| ted_ | bubbasaures: it is an icon for a partition that can be mounted, but in reality doesnt exist | 00:24 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: open the dash type startup, add, write out whatever you want, conky etc etc | 00:25 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan - better quality. | 00:25 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: then cd ~/.config/autostart , and view the .desktop file for conky, copy whatever is there into your script | 00:25 |
| EriC^^ | as cat << EOF > ~/.config/autostart/conky.desktop , paste whatever you got | 00:26 |
| bubbasaures | ted_, Right, how did it arrive there was it in a fstab mount and it is a link to that originally? I was trying to understand is all. | 00:26 |
| EriC^^ | and end it with EOF | 00:26 |
| bubbasaures | I have to go anyway | 00:26 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan http://dvswitch.alioth.debian.org/wiki/ that might spain things | 00:27 |
| cryptodan | CarlFK: so like 4K with Hi-Def Unencrypted Haudio? I do not understand how you can get better quality then 1080p and stereo for conferences but oh well | 00:28 |
| CarlFK | cryptodan once you do it, you will understand | 00:28 |
| bargea | i'm trying to get multiple monitors to work with an intel onboard graphics card and a separate nvidia card... I have them working as separate X screens, but when I turn on xinerama, I get the same thing on each screen, but the 2nd and 3rd screens seem unresponsive | 00:29 |
| bargea | I can move the mouse between the screens, however.. and when I hover over where I know things should be on the 2nd screen the mouse pointer changes, so it's like the wrong frame buffer is being displayed on the 2nd and 3rd screens | 00:30 |
| ted_ | bubbasaures: i just installed xubuntu, deleted every partition and made new ones. then this old partition called TAILS xxxx (i once had a TAILS live usb in this laptop) shows up on the desktop | 00:33 |
| bargea_ | oops, wifi dropped out | 00:33 |
| ted_ | bubbasaures: like it somehow stuck in the patition table or something | 00:33 |
| EriC^^ | ted_: it's probably just a link | 00:34 |
| EriC^^ | ted_: if it doesn't show up in sudo parted -l | 00:34 |
| ted_ | EriC^^: hmm http://pastebin.com/Hw24d0z0 | 00:36 |
| ted_ | EriC^^: number 2 is the problem | 00:36 |

| thoonai | hey, for which purposes I need the package tracker-miner-fs? | 00:57 |
| ZorroT | did the 14 lts upgrade, broke my apache2 config -- lost user public_html folders | 01:01 |
| k1l | !info tracker-miner-fs | 01:01 |
| ubottu | tracker-miner-fs (source: tracker): metadata database, indexer and search tool - filesystem indexer. In component main, is optional. Version 1.0.4-0ubuntu2 (utopic), package size 48 kB, installed size 232 kB | 01:01 |
| OerHeks | tracker-store and tracker-miner-fs provides indexer for desktop search | 01:02 |
| OerHeks | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Tracker | 01:03 |
| k1l | thoonai: when you type something into a desktop search and want fast results, you need some service that indexed the stuff before | 01:04 |
| thoonai | k1l: I thought zeitgeist is the ubuntu file indexing deamon? | 01:07 |
| thoonai | k1l: the curious thing was that it had like 100% cpu load and 0bit/s read or write on the ssd | 01:08 |
| k1l | thoonai: its the gnome one and unity runs on the gnome base, yes. | 01:08 |
| thoonai | k1l: like its an 250GB 840 Evo, it should not take longer than 1 or 2 mins for an fresh install, but ot took about 30 mins | 01:09 |
| thoonai | k1l: zeitgeist or tracker-miner-fs? | 01:09 |
| OerHeks | 'Files and Folders' option of Unity interface relies on Zeitgeist, Tracker will monitor and index content within the directories selected by you. | 01:10 |
| brombomb | hey all, I'm running ubuntu server, on a mac mini mostly headless. Soemtimes when I reboot (shutdown -r now) The system boots, but gets hung. When I plug in a keyboard/mouse to investigate I get nothing. Are there logs I can follow to start debuging the issue? | 01:10 |
| thoonai | OerHeks: ok | 01:10 |
| thoonai | probably someone should write the developer a mail | 01:11 |
| thoonai | this excessive cpu consuming happens on debian, ubuntu, opensuse ... | 01:11 |
| k1l | thoonai: zeitgeist had some isues with high cpu load back then. i thought that was fixed. | 01:12 |
| ZorroT | hello all, i'm getting 403 forbidden on all of my sites since 14.04 upgrade | 01:13 |
| ZorroT | i've read a bit about "require all granted" in apache2 directory definitions, but i don't understand. | 01:13 |
| thoonai | k1l: like its an 250GB 840 Evo, it should not take longer than 1 or 2 mins for an fresh install, but it took about 30 mins | 01:16 |
| OerHeks | ZorroT, In your Apache config, /etc/apache2/apache2.conf where ever it says "allow from all", there should be another line that says "Require all granted" in there as well. | 01:17 |
| ubuntuaddicted | whats the command instead of sudo make install that I can run which creates a deb package that I can use to install and uninstall? | 01:17 |
| ZorroT | OerHeks: I've done this | 01:18 |
| skippy70 | is there a way to resize my partition after installation? | 01:18 |
| ZorroT | OerHeks: it still is giving a 403, and i don't understand what this is about in the first place. | 01:18 |
| bazhang | !checkinstall | 01:18 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 01:18 |

| joan | between two ubuntu boxes: how can I end my SAMBA session from one box (client) to the other (server)? | 01:19 |
| ubuntuaddicted | bazhang, would it still be sudo make checkinstall? | 01:19 |
| OerHeks | ZorroT, did you restart apache2 ? | 01:19 |
| skippy70 | i just installed ubuntu and it formatted my entire hard drive, i only wanted to have 250 gb of space on it... can i partition it? | 01:19 |
| joan | I'm making some tests and I need to deauthenticate as one user and autheticate as another | 01:19 |
| skippy70 | or do i have to reinstall? | 01:19 |

| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall <-- ubuntuaddicted | 01:20 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, you can partition it smaller but you'll need to do it from a livecd. can't do it from the running system | 01:20 |
| thoonai | k1l: the problem was that it blocked my cpu, but it didn't anything on the hdd! I opened dstat and it was like every then and when 32kb were written | 01:20 |
| ubuntuaddicted | bazhang, thanks | 01:20 |
| skippy70 | ubuntuaddicted: thank you | 01:20 |
| skippy70 | why can't i do it from the system? | 01:20 |
| OerHeks | ZorroT, then i am out of ideas, you might want to ask in #ubuntu-server too | 01:21 |
| thoonai | I'd like to know which services I'll miss, if I disable tracker-miner-fs or remove it | 01:21 |
| k1l | thoonai: yes, please see if that is a known issue with zeitgeist and /or your ssd | 01:21 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, if you're shrinking the partition that the running system is on that just won't work. gparted requires the partition it's resizing to be unmounted which is impossible | 01:21 |
| AlbertoCG | Is there any way I can update Intel drivers manually? I can't use Intel's installer for 14.10 | 01:21 |
| OerHeks | skippy70, use the live-iso te resize | 01:22 |
| ubuntuaddicted | AlbertoCG, i would suggest looking into the oibaf ppa. it provides very up to date mesa and i915 intel driver. | 01:22 |
| skippy70 | hmm, interesting | 01:24 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, just like you couldn't use a windows partitioner to shrink your C drive. (at least i don't think you can) lol | 01:24 |

| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, resizing a partition will require inodes are moved (i believe) | 01:25 |
| ubuntuaddicted | supercom32, will have to be gpt i believe | 01:25 |

| ubuntuaddicted | supercom32, 4TB is that magic number which requires gpt vs msdos partition tables | 01:26 |
| supercom32 | ubuntuaddicted: I don't see it as an option. Do you know if there is a guide for this? | 01:26 |
| carlosqueso | Hi, I'm hoping you can help. I upgraded xubuntu to 14.10, and now I'm locked out of the GUI. signing in just causes the screen to go black for a second and then right back to lightdm | 01:26 |
| thoonai | k1l: the web is full of negative stuff about tracker | 01:26 |
| skippy70 | ubuntuaddicted: so it won't move the free space? | 01:26 |
| skippy70 | like if i shrink it 750 gb | 01:27 |
| carlosqueso | I'd google it, but I'm stuck on a terminal :/ | 01:27 |
| ubuntuaddicted | supercom32, really? should be there. which gparted are you using? | 01:27 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, it'll do whatever you tell it to do. :) | 01:27 |
| supercom32 | ubuntuaddicted: 0.8.1 (came with my install?) | 01:27 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, i don't know what your drive looks like now so i have no idea what you're trying to do. im just telling you what is required if you want to shrink your main systems root, / partition | 01:28 |
| ubuntuaddicted | supercom32, is the drive showing up as unallocated space currently? | 01:29 |

| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, you used lvm? | 01:30 |
| skippy70 | i don't know why it says 930 gb when it should be 1tb | 01:30 |
| skippy70 | ubuntuaddicted: is lvm a bad thing? | 01:30 |
| ObrienDave | skippy70, because it's using ^2 math | 01:31 |
| skippy70 | i'm bad at math | 01:31 |
| skippy70 | i have no idea what ^2 math is | 01:31 |
| ObrienDave | powers of 2. binary | 01:31 |
| skippy70 | what does that mean in this context? | 01:31 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, lvm is like a storage pool as far as i know. it allows you to add and remove hard drives from a pool. im rather confused why your /dev/sdb3 says you used 930.76 space on it already. what did you put on it? | 01:32 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, how did you install ubuntu? | 01:32 |
| skippy70 | with the installer | 01:32 |
| skippy70 | i ran the options and it said it's going to format the drive, it did and now this is the result | 01:32 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, any reason you choose lvm2? | 01:32 |
| skippy70 | lvm is the thing that makes taking snapshots easier right? | 01:33 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, if you have no idea what lvm is and this is a fresh install, i would strongly suggest just redoing your install. | 01:33 |
| skippy70 | ok will do | 01:33 |
| skippy70 | but i'd like to know more about lvm | 01:33 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, snapshots? what are you going to have virtual machines? | 01:33 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, !lvm | 01:34 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, !lvm2 | 01:34 |
| ObrienDave | HDs, on the box use character count. 1TB = 1,000,000,000,000 = 1000^4 . powers (binary) of 2 use 1024^3 | 01:34 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, i would suggest googling it | 01:34 |
| skippy70 | ubuntuaddicted: i'm going to use virtual machines in ubuntu, yes | 01:34 |

| skippy70 | ubuntuaddicted: no it's a laptop | 01:35 |

| DreamPCs | Any ideas or can anyone suggest better virtualization software? | 01:36 |
| skippy70 | parallel's or crossover? | 01:37 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, i mean i understand that the lvm wiki states, "On small systems (like a desktop at home), instead of having to estimate at installation time how big a partition might need to be in the future, LVM allows file systems to be easily resized later as needed." BUT like I said, if this is just a laptop I would pick maybe 20GB for your root partition and then make the rest be your /home/ partition | 01:37 |

| Unknown1988 | I want to make public what most people don't get to see | 01:37 |
| DreamPCs | It's none of those but I need to look into the last 3, never heard of any of them. | 01:37 |

| Unknown1988 | even if I have to drag myself thru the mud to take that one with me lol | 01:38 |

| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, i recently tried out Arch because it's not tied down to upstream decisions like ubuntu is with debian. for example, i have an app that needs ffmpeg BUT ubuntu ships avconv. just makes it a headache to have to compile ffmpeg or use some ppa where as in arch, i can do whatever i want, no upstream making decisions for me | 01:41 |
| skippy70 | wow that sounds cool! i'm an aspiring jr dev :P | 01:41 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, awesome, i wish i could get enough patience to learn to code. i would love to be able to write some cool little apps for myself | 01:42 |
| skippy70 | the idea for me is to learn to program well and then start my own companies and make more money! with the money i am going to make i will create my own charities that help improve the technology of impoverished areas of the globe :) | 01:43 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, that's awesome! i wish you nothing but success! | 01:44 |
| skippy70 | i have this inner need to leave this world in a better shape than i've entered it | 01:44 |
| skippy70 | it's a desire | 01:44 |
| skippy70 | thank you ubuntuaddicted :) | 01:44 |
| ubuntuaddicted | skippy70, desire/drive is 1 thing successful people all have in common i would say | 01:45 |
| skippy70 | eh, i'm not successful yet | 01:45 |

| macscam1 | is there a fallback shell on ubuntu? i edited /etc/passwd to change my default terminal, and broke the terminal in the process. I can't fix it because I need to edit the file with sudo | 01:46 |

| dwang_ | rypervenche: yep i got it from a PPA. I think it's google's lastest build. It's not the chromium shipped with ubuntu | 02:14 |
| dwang_ | rypervenche: and i dont think it is chrome specifically. If i open up a lot of diffferent applications it will behave similarly if i use up a lot of memory. It's usually chrome since it eats up memory and I open lots of tabs. Sorry if I misled you | 02:15 |
| rypervenche | dwang_: I'd recommend trying a different build then or maybe a previous version. How many tabs are we talking? | 02:15 |

| rypervenche | smidley: You may be blocked in /etc/deny.hosts or be blocked by the SSH configuration, among other things. | 02:17 |
| rypervenche | smidley: Or your shell may not allow you access. Just some ideas. | 02:17 |

| k1l | !nomodeset | DF3D2 try that | 02:43 |

| DF3D2 | k1l: I think the issue is a corrupted AMD fglrx driver, It gives me some kind of backtrace about fglrx when I kill X. So I'm reinstalling fglrx now | 02:44 |
| k1l | yes, fglrx is causing that | 02:44 |
| k1l | is it the one from the website? | 02:44 |
| DF3D2 | k1l: yes the amd official website | 02:46 |
| DF3D2 | reinstalling now... | 02:46 |

| cfhowlett | timwis, yep. only took me 3 years to learn. hit the windows wifi switch but experiment with combinations: ctrl F2 does it on my DELL in ubuntu. In windows: f2 | 03:02 |
| cfhowlett | timwis, ctrl, alt, shift and super keys are all candidates | 03:03 |
| timwis | that article actually suggests that with the Lenovo laptops there's a problem beyond that | 03:04 |
| timwis | what is the super key? | 03:04 |
| cryptodan | the windows key | 03:04 |
| cfhowlett | timwis, aka "windows" key | 03:04 |

| cfhowlett | timwis, yeah, I'm reading now. Slightly disturbing as the lenovo carbon x1 touch is on my short list to replace the dell | 03:09 |

| DF3D2 | brb | 03:09 |
| Bashing-om | DF3D2: "startx" in GDM or lightdm is a no-no .."sudo service lightdm start" or "sudo service gdm start" . respectfully. | 03:11 |
| meuserj | I have an odd problem… I just upgraded to 14.10, and now my system won't boot via Upstart.. but if I change init to systemd, it boots perfectly… | 03:12 |
| DF3D2 | Bashing-om: im not sure what you mean they are two different things? I'm talking about manually running "startx" or using lightdm. When I manually do startx It doesn't work and shoots "no protocol" over and over and then has a backtrace crash of "fglrx" stuff when I tell it to die. Lightdm works fine for starting X..... | 03:12 |
| meuserj | However, of course any services which require upstart won't run, so this isn't a good state to have the system in | 03:13 |
| meuserj | Any ideas? | 03:13 |
| Bashing-om | DF3D2: IF you are using unity as the DE, then it is -> sudo service lightdm to start the GUI, IF you have gnome as the DE, -> sudo service gdm start <- . | 03:14 |
| timwis | cfhowlett this fixed it: sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop | 03:15 |
| timwis | so I can blacklist it, but then I lose other features of the driver | 03:16 |
| meuserj | Well, nevermind… I just rebooted my system again and now it works… no idea why it broke and why it works now. | 03:16 |
| cfhowlett | timwis, eh? so only partially fixed? | 03:16 |
| cfhowlett | timwis, frustrating. | 03:16 |
| timwis | at least I'm on the web now | 03:17 |
| cfhowlett | timwis, curious: is that the intel or realtek wifi chipset? | 03:17 |
| timwis | can download the source of the driver | 03:17 |

| timwis | cfhowlett, I just used that zip/makefile from that article to recompile the ideapad_laptop.c driver and it's working great now, i no longer have it blacklisted | 03:35 |
| timwis | just had to blacklist it to download the actual zip file since this laptop has no ethernet port :P | 03:35 |
| cfhowlett | timwis, nicely done. you realize this elevates you to "guru" status ... | 03:35 |
| DF3D2 | Bashing-om: im using I3 | 03:36 |
| timwis | hahaha, i don't know about that. this is my first time actually using linux as my primary OS. to date i've only used it via ssh for web development | 03:36 |
| timwis | so at least i know my way around a terminal now | 03:36 |
| Artemis3v | timwis, youll get used quickly, try more distros and machines and find the perfect match | 03:37 |
| Bashing-om | DF3D2: OH ! ..Ok, I have never used it .. I may be of little help here. | 03:37 |
| DF3D2 | Bashing-om: well it works with lightdm but not startx as I was saying so it is a bit curious as to the real problem..... but as long as my X works it is fine I guess | 03:38 |

| skippy70 | hi | 04:15 |
| konner | Does anyone know how to check your Ubuntu address for DVWA | 04:15 |
| SchrodingersScat | konner: what's an ubuntu address? | 04:16 |
| konner | oops forgot a word | 04:17 |
| konner | ubuntu server address | 04:17 |
| SchrodingersScat | ok, great, and what's DVWA? | 04:17 |
| cfhowlett | timwis_, generally safe yes. sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will grab all updated packages introduced for the current distro | 04:17 |
| OerHeks | konner, https://github.com/RandomStorm/DVWA/blob/master/docs/DVWA_v1.3.pdf | 04:17 |
| konner | OerHeks, thanks | 04:20 |
| returnthis | I have what I hope is a simple question: Running 14.04. the clock in the top bar is 12hr display. I have set the config to 24hr. what am I missing? | 04:29 |
| returnthis | so how do I get the clock to displah in 24hr? | 04:31 |
| SchrodingersScat | when i right click on mine i get a properties | 04:31 |
| SchrodingersScat | returnthis: %H seems to be 24h hours | 04:32 |
| returnthis | if I click on the clock I get a calendar with "Date & Time settings" | 04:33 |
| returnthis | this is where I selected the 24-hour setting | 04:33 |
| OerHeks | returnthis, systemsettings > time & date | 04:33 |
| returnthis | OerHeks: I hafe 24-hour selected. clock is currently showing 11:34 PM | 04:34 |
| cryptodan | http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/date.1.html | 04:34 |
| cryptodan | 24 hour time is better for logging | 04:34 |
| OerHeks | 24 h works fine here | 04:35 |
| cryptodan | all my devices use 24 hour time and GMT | 04:35 |
| skippy70 | only in america you use 12 hour time | 04:35 |
| skippy70 | 24 hour time is so much better | 04:35 |
| * cryptodan is from the United States | 04:35 | |
| returnthis | SchrodingersScat: I do not get those options... I am running xmonad though, so that might be hiding the right click | 04:35 |

| returnthis | SchrodingersScat: next time I reboot I will log in with a standard WM and see if I can change it then. | 04:36 |
| OerHeks | akar, i think you will have issues, as the hdd needs to be unmounted to make partitions. | 04:37 |
| cfhowlett | akar, obviously not the recommended way, but hey ... | 04:37 |
| returnthis | OerHeks: I do find it odd that I have the setting for 24-hour set and it has no affect | 04:37 |
| akar | already umounted all drive, using toram boot option | 04:37 |
| cfhowlett | akar, yeah, I doubt you'll be able to unmount as your loaded .iso will block that function | 04:37 |
| squinty | akar: it works (i followed the following when I tried it) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot | 04:37 |
| SchrodingersScat | returnthis: i have no idea if that would carry over to another clock, good luck | 04:37 |
| akar | and install only to specific partition not whole disk | 04:38 |
| cfhowlett | squinty, I stand corrected! good to know | 04:38 |
| returnthis | I just did a search for 'clock' in dconf-editor and I see that clock-format is set to 12h | 04:38 |

| akar | wait the whole night boot kylin iso to try install it | 04:39 |
| akar | at the morning I get my kylin installation never finished | 04:39 |
| cfhowlett | squinty, so this can only be done from a pre-existing linux install, right? | 04:39 |
| cfhowlett | akar, ask in #ubuntu-cn or #ubuntukylin --- unless you're in Beijing? | 04:39 |
| SchrodingersScat | returnthis: did you change it? | 04:39 |
| akar | anyway the installer ask me to unmount all drives | 04:40 |
| returnthis | I did, to 24h, no change. | 04:40 |
| akar | right now I give a shot to install ubuntu LTS 14.04, grub2 booting iso method | 04:40 |
| returnthis | though I suspect edits made in dconf may require a logout/in | 04:40 |
| akar | glad meet someone whom I can discuss about this issue with | 04:41 |
| akar | join ubuntu kylin dev channel, seems nobody understand my issue | 04:41 |
| returnthis | SchrodingersScat: I suspect it may just be xmonad and gnome not playing nice. | 04:41 |
| returnthis | thanks for the help | 04:41 |
| cfhowlett | akar, are you in Beijing? | 04:42 |

| OerHeks | Why is the mouse cursor slightly tilted and not straight? | 04:43 |
| cfhowlett | akar, you don't need kylin for that. install non-chinese ubuntu | 04:43 |
| squinty | cfhowlett: that is how I did it. think I was running mint at the time iirc | 04:43 |
| akar | windows version is powerfull, I think WPS is m$ office replacement for me | 04:43 |
| akar | unfortunately it is using chinese weird character | 04:43 |

| akar | cfhowlett: see what? | 04:43 |
| akar | is there wps in ubuntu? | 04:44 |
| cfhowlett | akar, if you don't NEED Chinese, don't use Kylin. Install regular ubuntuand add wps. | 04:44 |

| Ycarene | rww - ubuntu | 06:19 |
| lotuspsychje | JBee: yes | 06:19 |
| rww | Ycarene: because Debian is and they don't want to maintain the packaging delta: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1316 | 06:20 |
| whoever | JBee: don't ask to ask , just ask | 06:20 |
| Ycarene | rww - it just seems that systemd does WAY more than it needs to. | 06:21 |
| JBee | I'm using this guide (http://goo.gl/XJsBVM) to install ubuntu onto my new chromebook. I'm stuck on page two trying to edit the "startelementary" file. It says "nano: error while loading shared libraries: libncursesw.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when I try to edit. | 06:21 |
| rww | Ycarene: that's a discussion for another channel :) | 06:21 |
| reactormonk | How do I set env variables like JAVA_HOME? Plug a file into profile.d? | 06:22 |
| Ycarene | rww - Yeah, but it just seems that debian/canonical are changing for changes sake. | 06:22 |
| rww | Ycarene: (since this is a support channel, not a general discussion one) | 06:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Ycarene: test systemd out for yourself... | 06:22 |
| rww | I'd refer you to #ubuntu-offtopic, but they're probably bored of systemd discussion by now. | 06:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Ycarene: it can replace upstart if you tweak it good | 06:23 |
| rww | JBee: ask the Elementary folks, we don't handle support for unofficial derivatives | 06:23 |
| JBee | I think I've narrowed it down to the fact that I need "lib32-ncurses" but can't find out how to get/install that. Anyone know? | 06:23 |
| reactormonk | ohh, systemd again? :-) | 06:23 |
| rww | JBee: that suggestion wasn't optional, btw. we *really* don't handle support for unofficial derivatives | 06:24 |
| reactormonk | On a personal note, does upstart handle crypttabs with keyfiles on encrypted drives correctly? | 06:24 |
| JBee | I'm not asking for support for elementary, Just asking why I can't seen to edit a file. | 06:24 |
| rww | JBee: you're not using Ubuntu, so... | 06:24 |
| rww | !derivatives | 06:24 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 06:24 |
| rww | hrm, i swear i added EOS to that | 06:25 |
| JBee | Ok, great community. See you later. | 06:25 |
| rww | anyways, it's #elementary | 06:25 |

| adrian1908 | cryptodan: I think you got my name mixed up with someone else, I never mention opengl. I'm having a linker issue with a non-graphics library. | 07:05 |
| cryptodan | libGL is openGL | 07:05 |
| cryptodan | or part of it | 07:05 |
| tapout | why would .. opengl 3.3 be reported, and then if i add myself to the group 'video', opengl 2.* gets reported? | 07:06 |
| adrian1908 | the path is definitely correct, it comes from a makefile. The issue is that i recently added the library manually and I think the linker can't see it. | 07:07 |

| Charcoalcat | Hi! I'm on Ubuntu 12.04, and I'm stuck in Unity 2D. I think it happened after someone had me uninstall all of my Nvidia drivers to diagnose a different issue (being stuck in a tiny desktop resolution). I know I'm in Unity 2D because MyUnity gives me an error about it when I open it. When I open Additional Drivers, it says no proprietary drivers are in use, and the only one lister is a Realtek driver for my wireless card. I installed nvidia-current, | 07:17 |

| Zeedox | How can I list available package updates with apt? Running `apt-get upgrade -s` prints more than just a list, and needs sudo to run at all. I just want a list of package names, versions and sizes. | 08:31 |
| geirha | If it works, it will give it a drive letter, F: or whatever | 08:31 |
| DJones | Lucax: As far as I'm aware, there's no "native" method though, as I say, its years since I've used it, so not 100% sure, I think it allowed file manager to see the partition, but you may need to do a bit more research, might be worth joining ##windows and asking there as well | 08:31 |

| lancelot_of | hi there | 08:50 |
| lancelot_of | only two things do not work on my 14.04.1. 1) copy and paste from terminals do not work except from gnome-terminal where Ctrl-c does the job. On other terminals like xterm selecting text does not provide paste through Shift-Insert. 1a) some related stuff, i do not have third button on my touchpad, so i cannot use it for pasting from terminal. 2) In emacs, control-space for setting mark and selecting text does not work, i have to use shift-contro | 09:00 |
| lancelot_of | l arrows but it is not handly. How to fix? Are these issues alla related with each other? | 09:00 |
| edition | lancelot_of: use Shift+Ctrl+C for copy and Shift+Ctrl+V for paste. | 09:01 |
| lancelot_of | edition, id does not work on xterm | 09:01 |
| edition | nevermind | 09:01 |
| lancelot_of | edition, i'm sorry id does from terminal to terminal, but if i want to copy and paste, say, from terminal to browser it does not. Only gnome terminal can provide it | 09:02 |

| Chuck_Norris | Charcoalcat: how old is your motherboard? | 09:09 |
| Charcoalcat | lancelot_of: I don't know how to fix your issue, but while you're having the problem you can try pastebinit. | 09:09 |
| Charcoalcat | !pastebinit lancelot_of | 09:10 |
| Charcoalcat | Chuck_Norris: I think less than three years old? Why? | 09:10 |
| Chuck_Norris | i think to remember that xterm doesn't support paste -.- | 09:10 |
| Charcoalcat | !pastebinit | lancelot_of | 09:11 |
| ubottu | lancelot_of: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 09:11 |
| Svetlana | !pastebinit | 09:11 |
| Chuck_Norris | Charcoalcat: cause, may be you need to disable you interated graphic card and enable your nvidia in the bios settings -.- | 09:11 |
| lancelot_of | Chuck_Norris, xterm supports paste, indeed from terminal to terminal it works. The problem is from terminals to other applications, like browser, mail client, gtk and so on | 09:12 |
| azyr | how can i list the files inside a ppa package? | 09:12 |
| lancelot_of | and what about third button and emacs keybinding? | 09:12 |
| azyr | like the similar output that i get when i do 'dpkg -L [packagename]' | 09:12 |
| Chuck_Norris | Charcoalcat: modern bios autodetect when you plug a grphic card and automatically disble the integrated, but in old bios you need to do it by yourself | 09:13 |
| Chuck_Norris | lancelot_of: sry, that was what i meant, when i used it i couldn't copy from it | 09:14 |
| Charcoalcat | Chuck_Norris: "Filesystem created: Sat Oct 20 21:45:03 2012" | 09:14 |
| lancelot_of | Chuck_Norris, on other systems it works, like debian where i come from | 09:14 |
| Chuck_Norris | Charcoalcat: it a new one, nevertheless, i would suggest you cheking the bios setting and search for enabling and disabling grafic cards, and first of all delete "nomodeset" and: sudo update-grub | 09:16 |
| Chuck_Norris | "nomodeset" is useful when you can't boot into your DE | 09:16 |
| Chuck_Norris | !nomodeset | Charcoalcat | 09:17 |
| ubottu | Charcoalcat: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 09:17 |

| varela | ok, faust. I need someone who changes his user language to Asturian, his keyboard to Asturian, and test if he can write accented letters in Ubuntu 14.10 | 11:11 |
| bob_ | hi all, is there a way to determine if, say, /dev/sdg is a USB pen storage device? | 11:11 |
| varela | (that's the reason, because is better a romanic speaker ;) ) | 11:12 |
| varela | can anyone help me? It's only change language system, keyboard, test it, and back again to your default language. Only need to know if they can type with accented letters | 11:12 |
| Ben64 | varela: how about you actually describe your issue instead of finding someone just like you to try to recreate some random problem | 11:12 |
| faust | varela: may I ask why do you need this test? | 11:13 |
| varela | because is impossible to type accented letters. I've filled a bug, but need other suggestions of people | 11:13 |

| Charcoalcat | ObrienDave: Yeah, but aren't there supposed to be problems with 14.04? | 11:59 |

When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, as a typo will give away your password. If that happens, identify and then type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible. | 12:03 |

| Charcoalcat | The drive is buzzing, but it doesn't show up. | 12:18 |
| ObrienDave | Charcoalcat, i would say that's a pretty unreliable drive for backup lol | 12:19 |
| anthonystone | merhaba | 12:19 |
| Charcoalcat | ObrienDave: Yep! | 12:19 |
| Charcoalcat | ObrienDave: The USB ports are super-super-finicky (since I got the computer) so I assume it's their fault and not the drive's fault but either way still no backup. | 12:20 |
| ObrienDave | Ary_Mainart, you'll have to sudo into the directory above it to delete the one you want | 12:20 |
| ObrienDave | Charcoalcat, AH! slightly and GENTLY squeeze the outer connector shell | 12:20 |
| Charcoalcat | Hm, if I try to unmount it through terminal, it says "the device is busy". | 12:20 |
| Charcoalcat | ObrienDave: Outer connector shell? | 12:21 |
| ObrienDave | of the USB connector | 12:21 |
| Ary_Mainart | i allready do that. but when i install samba again doesnt install the default smb.conf | 12:21 |
| ObrienDave | delete the file | 12:21 |
| Charcoalcat | ObrienDave: It stopped buzzing when I did that, but it still says "device is busy" and still doesn't show up. | 12:22 |
| Ary_Mainart | another thing is that i am changing smb.conf in the /etc/samba and the configs doesent work. Its like samba has another smb.conf in somewhere | 12:22 |
| ObrienDave | Charcoalcat, the metal outside, very carefully squeeze it smaller on the flatter side. makes the connections a bit better ;P | 12:22 |
| * ObrienDave know nothing about samba | 12:23 | |
| Ary_Mainart | once i made it work, but after i format and install same ubuntu stop to work | 12:24 |
| Charcoalcat | ObrienDave: Okay, I tried but it doesn't really seem squeeze-able. | 12:24 |
| ObrienDave | it takes very little to get a better connection | 12:25 |
| ObrienDave | i can do it with my thumb nails ;P | 12:25 |

| rgenito | i cannot upgrade my OS because there's not enough space in /boot ... this happens all the time (ubuntu devs, WHY do you keep on insisting to partition this drive so damn small?) | 14:39 |

| EriC^^ | sbliven: also i think you should install grub to the disk not the partition | 15:42 |
| EriC^^ | sbliven: grub-install --recheck /dev/sdd | 15:42 |

| bipolar | I have a new System76 laptop with an internal SD card reader. SD cards show up as mmcblk devices. It works as I expect, unless the SD card is formatted with exfat. I've installed the exfat packages, and I can mount the card manually. However it doesn't show up in the file manager when I plug it in. Has anyone solved this issue for themselves? I'm running 14.10. Strangely it does show up on my 12.04 system, although that's a USB SD card reader and the parti | 15:44 |
| bipolar | tions are sd* device files. | 15:44 |
| sbliven | is there a way to check? The volume names in my BIOS aren't helpful | 15:44 |
| sbliven | can I check guids or something | 15:44 |
| EriC^^ | sbliven: efibootmgr -v mentions something like HD(1,.......) | 15:45 |
| bipolar | On this internal sd card reader, the cards show up as mmcblk devices | 15:45 |
| EriC^^ | don't know what that number means, i just checked and it's not the partition's uuid | 15:45 |
| EriC^^ | but i think it should say which partition to look for the .efi files | 15:45 |
| sbliven | my setup is further complicated by the fact that I'm booting a raid partition, so the GUID is different | 15:46 |
| EriC^^ | sbliven: i think the HD(1, means partition 1 | 15:46 |

| mydog2 | how/where does this get created in ubuntu? | 15:47 |
| EriC^^ | mydog2: maybe you have to login using the user | 15:47 |
| EriC^^ | sudo login <user> | 15:47 |
| MonkeyDust | mydog2 did you install openss-client and/or -server? | 15:47 |
| MonkeyDust | mydog2 did you install openssh-client and/or -server? | 15:47 |
| k1l_ | mydog2: the folders get created when they are needed | 15:48 |
| k1l_ | mydog2: so if the user uses a program/command that needs that folder it gets created. | 15:48 |
| mydog2 | MonkeyDust, - um.. i didn't install either.. there are other users on the vm.. they do have .ssh dirs | 15:48 |

| geoffmcc | mydog2: the folder gets created when user first uses ssh | 15:48 |
| mydog2 | geoffmcc, -so i just need to fire up ssh as the user. hmm.. i'll test it | 15:49 |
| === mudo_ is now known as mudo | ||
| geoffmcc | mydog2: if you try to ssh from that user it will get generated | 15:49 |
| sbliven | mydog2: it's safe to just create it yourself | 15:49 |
| k1l_ | mydog2: but you can create those folder by yourself anytime | 15:49 |

| EriC^^ | it is | 15:56 |
| EriC^^ | that's odd | 15:56 |

| === michael__ is now known as Guest83025 | ||

| sbliven | EriC^^: Because my root is a software raid, and blkid seems to only show hardware partitions | 16:14 |

| sbliven | but the ubuntu ones don't | 16:22 |
| sbliven | maybe its a bios problem? | 16:22 |
| somsip | Endri: it means what it says. What's your question? | 16:22 |
| EriC^^ | sbliven: no that's for booting the usb in uefi | 16:22 |

| MonkeyDust | skippy70 what's wrong with that screen? | 16:44 |

| skippy70 | MonkeyDust, nothing except for the glitch | 16:44 |
| Spec | alternatively, ip link set <interface> address <mac> | 16:44 |
| skippy70 | if i restart the computer it will probably fix itself, but i want to understand the underlying cause | 16:45 |
| sulabh | <sbliven> : it has been changed by using [ ifconfig wlan0 hw ether "new mac" ] but after it is not connecting with internet | 16:45 |
| MonkeyDust | skippy70 i can see nothing wrong | 16:45 |
| skippy70 | MonkeyDust, you see that orange rectangle? | 16:45 |

| beefman | if i'm going to migrate an existing single drive setup to software raid, are there compelling reasons for or against gpt or mbr? can i make the whole disk the raid partition if using gpt or do i need some separate partition outside the array? | 16:55 |

| OerHeks | MotoGomenasai, maybe you need to register your irc name, we don't know | 18:17 |

| ert3go | right click on file-->Rename | 18:26 |

| bubbasaures | Hawkerz, Yes number of ways. | 18:35 |
| rypervenche | ert3go: no problem :) Keep backups if you care about your data. | 18:36 |
| bubbasaures | Hawkerz, I don't dd, but use a multiload usb app | 18:36 |
| Hawkerz | bubbasaures, do you know what it's called? and can I add the ubuntu installer onto a stick that already has a windows installer on it? I've already freed up space to make another partition | 18:36 |
| Betsy_ | Thank you. Yes, I guess you'd say I'm new. One last thing, kind person, Krixvar. Where am I supposed to see the startup settings location? | 18:37 |
| Krixvar | Betsy_: startup settings? As in applications that launch when you log in? or something else? | 18:37 |
| bubbasaures | Hawkerz, You have you cart in front of your horse, I meant a usb that put iso of multi OS all in one partition all can be booted. | 18:37 |
| Hawkerz | bubbasaures, I'd be happy with that too, i just don't want to wipe windows off my USB stick (it's already there). So if there is a solution that lets me keep what i have and just add the ubuntu installer as well, that's ideal | 18:38 |
| Betsy_ | yes, one of my issues is that I cannot keep my firefox add-ons, extensions and my browser theme. And now trying to activate my browser theme, will not execute like it should | 18:38 |
| bubbasaures | Hawkerz, I use this http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ you can put grub on a usb and do the same. Wiping windows off the stick for an easy install is a smarter move. | 18:39 |

| jarnos | Anybody else notice mouse cursor freeze, when watching youtube by chromium-browser? | 18:40 |
| bubbasaures | Hawkerz, You are trying to climb a mountain with one leg by adding rather than setting it up correctly to begin with. You can have handfuls of iso's with the multiboot app. | 18:40 |
| jhutchins | Betsy_: Create a new user and see if the same thing happens. | 18:40 |
| Hawkerz | bubbasaures, I know, I can also just use multiple usb sticks but I'm constrained right now so my options are limited | 18:41 |
| Wulf | l3kid: a cloak? Ask in a haberdasher (shop for gentlemen's clothing) | 18:41 |
| Betsy_ | Ubuntu LTS. perhaps to evade some issues I should just choose another distribution...since I haven't fully learned Ubuntu after attempting to use Mint, maybe another dist. would work better for me | 18:41 |
| jhutchins | l3kid: #freenode | 18:41 |
| bubbasaures | Hawkerz, I never said multiple sticks, I mean all on one stick. | 18:41 |
| qengho | jarnos: mouse cursor freeze? sounds like a video problem. what does "dmesg" output say around that time? | 18:41 |
| Betsy_ | Jhutchins. hanks. I thought of doing that, except nothing happens when I try to do it. | 18:42 |
| Krixvar | Betsy_: That should be fine, just wanted to make sure I was looking up the right thing for you | 18:42 |
| bubbasaures | Hawkerz, The W7 load on the app is just a drop the iso on it and a password. I suspect you had a real hassle on the original load, it is rather easy really. | 18:42 |
| Betsy_ | I'm just thinking that something malicious is going on (same reason I decided to abdandon Windows) | 18:42 |
| Hawkerz | bubbasaures, okay, I'll take a look at it (looking now) | 18:43 |
| Krixvar | Betsy_: can't say about that, but is this what you're looking for? http://askubuntu.com/questions/48321/how-do-i-start-applications-automatically-on-login | 18:43 |

| circ-user-qBsSS | I have given the scripts chmod +x | 18:48 |

| circ-user-qBsSS | 10.04.1 LTS Desktop | 18:49 |

| circ-user-qBsSS | 64bit, if that matters | 18:49 |
| daftykins | circ-user-qBsSS: i hope that's a typo :) | 18:49 |
| bubbasaures | circ-user-qBsSS, That is eol the desktop is anyway. | 18:49 |

| circ-user-qBsSS | yes, sorry | 18:50 |

This is the first time since August that I've even been able to use my computer. so, Im not real excitted about uninstall/reinstall again. | 18:51 |

| DaddysGirlfriend | bipolar, I have the password but it doesn't prompt me for anything or recognize a mountable disk | 19:04 |
| Pl34se | b43 : That opens a GUI when you type it on a console | 19:04 |
| bubbasaures | Pl34se, That would be gksudo b43 | 19:04 |
| b43 | oh ok thxxxx tryin it now | 19:04 |

| Pl34se | i installed the oem-audio-hda | 19:05 |
| b43 | sudo: nautilus: command not found | 19:05 |
| Krixvar | leonlemouton: aha found a few duplicates in the playlist, it got it. Thank you so much! | 19:05 |

| Pl34se | oh on Lubuntu xD | 19:05 |
| bipolar | DaddysGirlfriend, I have an external SATA mount I use and I've placed encrypted drives in it. Was is encrypted during the Ubuntu install process or is this a self encrypting disk? | 19:06 |
| b43 | i typed sudo nautilus, n thats what it came back with | 19:06 |
| b43 | sudo: nautilus: command not found | 19:06 |
| leonlemouton | Krixvar : :-) | 19:06 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Hi all | 19:06 |
| bubbasaures | b43, Why are you trying to open this in root? | 19:06 |
| rvankleeck | does anyone have experience using Spacewalk for package management in Ubuntu? | 19:06 |
| DaddysGirlfriend | bipolar whole disk encryption from the initial install | 19:06 |
| b43 | im tryin to copy the rest of the fonts from win 7 over to the fonts folder here on lubuntu | 19:06 |
| Pl34se | bipolar : which software did you use to encrypt ? | 19:06 |
| b43 | it refuses to copy them over without root | 19:06 |
| bubbasaures | rvankleeck, No 3rd party support here technically | 19:06 |
| bipolar | DaddysGirlfriend, If it's LUKS encrypted, it should just work. Ubuntu should see the disk. | 19:07 |
| b43 | already have msttcorefonts installed, but still missin a bunch of fonts | 19:07 |
| rvankleeck | bubbasaures, ah, ok | 19:07 |
| JokesOnYou77 | I'm having trouble understanding the -H option for sudo from the manpage. I'm looking for an example of when/why I would use it | 19:07 |
| b43 | so i need file manager opened with root | 19:07 |
| bipolar | Pl34se, DaddysGirlfriend is the one with the hard drive. | 19:07 |
| Pl34se | oh ok sorry | 19:08 |

| ChogyDan | b43: this might work: sudo xdg-open . | 19:08 |
| b43 | ok let me try, hold on pls | 19:08 |
| b43 | oh i gotta add filemanager?? | 19:09 |

| Pl34se | i thought i could help sorry :P so anyone have an intel 6 Series C600 ? i can't make it work for sound | 19:09 |
| ChogyDan | b43: no, I think the filemanager is called dolphin | 19:10 |
| bubbasaures | no | 19:10 |
| bubbasaures | pcmanfm | 19:10 |
| b43 | it says pcmanfm when i mouseover ont he shortcut on the bottom | 19:10 |
| b43 | file 'pcmanfm' does not exist | 19:10 |
| ChogyDan | oh, then that. < b43 | 19:11 |
| b43 | xdg-open file 'pcmanfm' does not exist | 19:11 |
| ChogyDan | b43: it would just be sudo pcmanfm | 19:11 |
| b43 | oh, right, sorry for bein so nooby | 19:11 |
| b43 | lol | 19:11 |
| b43 | hahaha, it worked tyvm | 19:12 |
| bubbasaures | b43, You should just be installing font from the command line or the ubuntu software center. | 19:12 |
| ChogyDan | b43: xdg-open is a generic opening command, and the . is the current directory. I thought it might work.. | 19:12 |
| b43 | msttcorefonts is already installed, but its missing way too many fonts | 19:12 |
| b43 | so im copyin the rest over, from win 7 system folder | 19:12 |
| ChogyDan | b43: which fonts are missing? and what are they used for? | 19:13 |
| f00dWorksta | is there a way to put unity launcher on the left for the left screen, but on the right for the right screen in a dual monitor setting? | 19:13 |
| f00dWorksta | and also have autohide feature | 19:13 |
| deweydb | does anyone know how to fix this: libpng12-dev : Depends: libpng12-0 (= 1.2.46-3ubuntu4) but 1.2.49-1ubuntu1 is to be installed | 19:13 |
| deweydb | ? | 19:13 |
| bubbasaures | b43, To many fonts missing means nothing here and gotten you bad help in general. | 19:13 |
| OerHeks | f00dWorksta, no, unity bar is hardcoded | 19:15 |
| bubbasaures | f00dWorksta, No, the left panel stays without a hack, used to be one to move to the bottom. | 19:15 |
| b43 | too many fonts to list that r missin, its for abiword | 19:16 |
| b43 | tryin to fully transition to lubuntu, n never ever goin back to backdoor infested windows | 19:16 |
| bubbasaures | one more for the ignore | 19:18 |
| f00dWorksta | bubbasaures: dun need it at bottom, but with autohide it means it's *extremely* tough to get the launcher to unhide on that screen... so I usually get to the launcher on the left screen... which is abit annoying, but I guess nothing substantial | 19:18 |
| bubbasaures | f00dWorksta, The unhide has a adjustment | 19:19 |
| b43 | yes, fully copied over, not just a reboot so as to not have to manually refresh cache | 19:19 |
| proc3sarte | Buenas, saludos | 19:19 |
| bubbasaures | f00dWorksta, I'm not in unity it is in the right click on the desktop menu extensions | 19:19 |
| b43 | thx again yall, sudo pcmanfm worked, n it opens in gui | 19:20 |
| ChogyDan | deweydb: you should paste the entire error message in a pastebin.com type paste service, and I could probably help | 19:20 |
| bubbasaures | proc3sarte, English? | 19:20 |

| f00dWorksta | bubbasaures: I have already set it to the most sensitive. But I still need to move my mouse within a few pixels of the edge of my right screen then slowly move my mouse to unhide, moving too fast will just send my mouse flying to my left screen. | 19:20 |

| bubbasaures | f00dWorksta, Hmm, strange not sure of any path. | 19:21 |
| f00dWorksta | bubbasaures: which is why I was looking to see if I could put the launcher on the right side just for my right screen :< | 19:21 |

| qengho | gebruiker: Ubuntu devs could have chosen many. The fact that evince is default is a kind of recommendation. | 19:31 |
| deweydb | ChogyDan: libpng ? no. but it is very possible i screwed up this box somehow along the way. | 19:31 |

| qengho | gebruiker: I think the default is good enough. | 19:32 |
| ChogyDan | deweydb: kk. You need to remove libpng12-0, so it can reinstall with the proper.... ok. You could also just upgrade to 14.10. That would probably fix it. But the issue is that you, somehow, got an updated version of libpng12, and it wants a specific version. FWIW | 19:33 |

| Bashing-om | deweydb: Try: -> sudo apt-add-repository multiverse <- to add the repo . | 19:50 |
| daftykins | HeyMan7: sounds like the latest available then, there must be some info on applying vsync - assuming that's the end goal you want here | 19:50 |
| deweydb | Bashing-om: got it sorted | 19:51 |
| deweydb | awesome! and i'm building! finally :) :) :) | 19:51 |
| HeyMan7 | daftykins: Well the end goal overall is to get rid if the screen tearing to make it as smooth as the intel runs but with the fps of the nvidia | 19:51 |
| daftykins | HeyMan7: sounds like it can't be done with nvidia-prime and bumblebee is the alternative - but won't be as fast | 19:53 |
| ChogyDan | deweydb: yay! :) | 19:53 |
| HeyMan7 | daftykins: But do you think Bumblebee has less tearing? And how much slower? | 19:54 |
| daftykins | HeyMan7: i don't have any answers for you on that. you're going to have to just try it - but i've discovered this in 2 minutes of searching for "nvidia-prime tearing" | 19:54 |
| solars | hi, I've got a intel hd 4400 (haswell) graphics chip, and I have the feeling that if I scroll on large pages, my i7 laptop is much slower/lagging in comparison to my i5 desktop.. driver seems to be i915 and I read somewhere that there were problems with the current kernel and fixes in a new one - anyone got an idea? | 19:55 |
| ChogyDan | solars: are you on 14.10? | 19:57 |
| solars | on 14.04.01 | 19:58 |
| solars | on 14.04.1 | 19:58 |
| jvwjgames | how do i fix the libpython error: cyphesis: error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.5.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 19:59 |
| Griz64 | Hey Gang. Just did the update to the newest LTS and when running Muon, I get "This operation cannnot continue since proper authorization was not provided". Is there a known fix for this? I googled and found very little. {cross-posted from #kubuntu channel} | 20:00 |

| solars | I'm running kernel 3.13 (trusty) - I read that kernel 3.15 RC2 has haswell fixes - how can I upgrade to a newer kernel, and which one should I chose_ (>= 3.15RC2) | 20:02 |
| Ben64 | solars: ubuntu 14.10 has 3.16, you could upgrade to that or wait for it to become available on 14.04 | 20:04 |
| solars | I assume 3.16 is the way to go? | 20:05 |
| solars | I'll upgrade | 20:05 |
| solars | how do I start this update tool again? I'm under i3 | 20:05 |
| Ben64 | keep in mind you'll need to upgrade every 6 months then | 20:05 |
| solars | its more convenient than the console | 20:05 |
| Ben64 | 14.04 will get all the newer kernels if you wait | 20:05 |
| solars | why every 6 months? | 20:05 |
| ChogyDan | solars: you can either upgrade to 14.10, or upgrade the kernel, here is one way http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html | 20:05 |
| solars | mmm | 20:06 |
| ChogyDan | oops, wrong link http://askubuntu.com/questions/506956/how-can-i-install-3-16-kernel-on-ubuntu-14-04 | 20:06 |
| solars | what do you recommend? not very familiar with the ubuntu distro | 20:06 |
| Ben64 | i'd recommend staying on 14.04 | 20:06 |
| solars | for what reason? | 20:06 |
| solars | ah .04 is lts right | 20:06 |
| Ben64 | long term support | 20:06 |
| Ben64 | not all .04 | 20:06 |
| solars | I meant 14.04 sorry | 20:07 |
| solars | what does that mean actually if I for example chose 14.10? | 20:07 |
| Ben64 | looks like 14.10's kernel is coming to 14.04 in february | 20:07 |
| solars | I will try it now | 20:07 |
| solars | I should update anyway more frequently | 20:07 |
| Ben64 | 14.10 loses support in july | 20:07 |
| solars | ah alright | 20:07 |
| Ben64 | if there is no reason to update, theres really no point | 20:08 |
| solars | I will upgrade only the kernel then | 20:08 |
| solars | yeah | 20:08 |
| Ben64 | but you can't upgrade only the kernel at this time | 20:08 |
| solars | not? | 20:08 |
| solars | why not | 20:08 |
| Ben64 | like i said, february | 20:08 |
| solars | but I can add the sources and install it? | 20:08 |
| solars | like in the link above | 20:08 |
| Ben64 | nope | 20:08 |
| solars | why not | 20:08 |
| ChogyDan | solars: the link above will help you install the upstream kernel, without any of the Ubuntu patches | 20:09 |
| Ben64 | it isn't supported | 20:09 |
| Ben64 | are you even having problems with your current kernel? | 20:09 |
| solars | what does it mean it isn't supported? I'm having problems yes see for example this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2222388 | 20:10 |
| solars | he changed to 3.15 RC2 | 20:10 |
| Ben64 | if/when something breaks, we won't help you here | 20:10 |
| solars | because there were fixes for my graphics chip | 20:10 |
| athan | If I have a ppa added that has packages with the same names in the default ppa setup, does the new ppa's packages mask over the old ones? | 20:10 |
| solars | Ben64, well if it worked for others.. | 20:11 |
| ChogyDan | solars: it isn't a big deal to add a kernel through that ppa. You can always remove it, boot old kernels. It is a fairly safe thing to try | 20:11 |
| solars | so I'd like to at least change to 3.15 | 20:11 |
| Ben64 | well, good luck | 20:12 |
| solars | I'm just not familiar with the ubuntu packages | 20:12 |
| solars | I used to compile the latest kernel myself always, but that's some years ago | 20:12 |
| ChogyDan | solars: getting the 16 version listed on the site should be fine | 20:13 |
| solars | ChogyDan, thanks a lot, I will give it a try | 20:14 |
| Haruspex | Hello! | 20:18 |
| Ryvius | Hi Im going to replace Ubuntu with Mint. Is there anything I should do before installing, like removing steam and its games? | 20:18 |
| bekks | Ryvius: You have to ask the Mint support community for their requirements. | 20:19 |
| Ryvius | Hmm they are not as active as you guys.. | 20:19 |
| bekks | Ryvius: There's nothing we can do about that. | 20:20 |
| Ben64 | Ryvius: maybe you should reconsider using mint if you want an active support channel | 20:20 |
| Haruspex | I want to dual boot ubuntu with windows, and want to have an image backup for windows as well. If I were to replace my win system after having a successful dual-boot, what happens to MBR? | 20:20 |
| OerHeks | Ryvius, Mint is slower than ubuntu :-) | 20:20 |
| Ryvius | Yes I would prefer to keep Ubuntu, but it keeps freezing on me and I have no idea what to do | 20:21 |
| solars | worked at least | 20:21 |
| daftykins | Haruspex: worst case scenario? you reinstall GRUB. problem solved. | 20:21 |
| adjudikator | Haruspex yep what dafty says | 20:21 |
| Ben64 | Ryvius: then ask about that here | 20:21 |
| Haruspex | But where does it go? | 20:21 |
| bekks | Ryvius: How about analyzing the problem then? :) | 20:21 |
| daftykins | Haruspex: to the root of the disk | 20:21 |
| Haruspex | I mean, I plan to have 4 partitions, linuxOS/swap/home/Win | 20:22 |
| Ryvius | I tried making a post in the forum but they just kept saying it was my hardware. But memtest doesnt show any errors and I dont know what else there is | 20:22 |
| athan | If I have a ppa added that has packages with the same names in the default ppa setup, does the new ppa's packages mask over the old ones? | 20:22 |
| Haruspex | Also, where is GRUB installed? To linuxOS partition? | 20:22 |
| bekks | Ryvius: You have much more hardware than RAM only. You have a motherboard with a lot of components, you have a CPU, you graphics adapter, etc. | 20:23 |
| Ryvius | It seems to freeze completely random, both when gaming, browsing the net, youtube.... | 20:23 |
| Bashing-om | Haruspex: Grub: stage 1 is installed to sector 0 of the hard drive, stage 2 is installed to /boot partition . | 20:23 |
| bekks | Ryvius: Did you try to analyze the system logs? | 20:23 |
| Ryvius | Nope | 20:24 |
| bekks | Ryvius: Thats the first thing to do. | 20:24 |
| Haruspex | So, that sector 0 could be home or swap as well? | 20:24 |
| bekks | Haruspex: Whats "sector 0"? | 20:24 |
| Haruspex | First partition I make? | 20:25 |
| Bashing-om | Haruspex: Tutorial: https://iam.tj/kb/pc/boot/ . | 20:25 |
| adjudikator | Sector 0 is MBR. only a boot loader goes there | 20:25 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: i'm feeling charitable. check your disk's health is ok, install the packages 'smartmontools' and 'pastebinit' then run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" and link me here. | 20:25 |
| daftykins | Haruspex: you're trying to put the cart before the horse by asking how to fix a dualboot setup before you've broken it :) | 20:25 |
| Ryvius | Hmm okay but I have to boot into ubuntu first | 20:25 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: chop chop then | 20:25 |
| adjudikator | Haruspex Install grub on mbr /dev/sdX and then install grub files along w the system if you dont want a /boot partition | 20:25 |
| DocPlatypus | friend has 11.04 Wubi install that needs to be upgraded at least to 12.04 LTS if not 14.04 LTS. does it have to be upgraded to 11.10 first and if so, how? | 20:26 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: also i think you mean Mint, no? :P | 20:26 |
| Haruspex | :> | 20:26 |
| ReScO | i've manually installed the Oracle Java JDK because Openfire needed a Java installation, i've done so by following a tutorial, and then install openfire through "dpkg --force-depends -i", now apt-get keeps whining about the dependencies that openfire needs even though they are met | 20:26 |
| bekks | daftykins: Delete that WUBI stuff, and reinstall a clean, native 14.04 | 20:26 |
| adjudikator | daftykins Windows always writes mbr | 20:26 |
| ReScO | how do i fix that? | 20:26 |
| DocPlatypus | correction, it's not a Wubi install, it's a standard install | 20:26 |
| Haruspex | Well, I will probably brake it. | 20:26 |

| ChogyDan1 | ReScO: you need to post the full error messages, with pastebin/etc | 20:27 |
| bekks | DocPlatypus: Yes, you have to update to 11.10, 12.04 then 14.04. | 20:27 |
| Ryvius | Okay what was it I had to do again | 20:27 |
| Timmy | how can I directly extract a .zip file into a tar archive? | 20:27 |
| DocPlatypus | bekks: as I thought | 20:27 |
| Haruspex | I get it now, that flow-chart is informative. | 20:28 |
| jhutchins | ReScO: Why didn't you just install debian packages for java? | 20:28 |
| ReScO | ChogyDan1: https://gist.github.com/iSDP/f60475e57850e336b5bb | 20:28 |
| ReScO | jhutchins: because i wanted oracle's latest official java? | 20:28 |
| Haruspex | So, about the original question, windows will break MBR even if I were to reinstall from image, right? | 20:28 |
| Bashing-om | Haruspex: TJ- done good, huh ? | 20:28 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: you just lost 10 #ubuntu points for not even writing it down first =| | 20:28 |
| ChogyDan1 | ReScO: did you try -f install? | 20:28 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: i'm feeling charitable. check your disk's health is ok, install the packages 'smartmontools' and 'pastebinit' then run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" and link me here. | 20:29 |
| solars | ChogyDan1, the only thing that changed with the new kernel is that I seem to only have powersave and performance governors, at least in the menu | 20:29 |
| ReScO | ChogyDan1: will it install a java version? | 20:29 |
| Ryvius | Sorry I was in a hurry | 20:29 |
| ReScO | because openfire runs properly | 20:29 |
| Haruspex | Quite, Bashing-om, quite good. | 20:29 |
| ChogyDan1 | solars: so no improvement. Then it probably isn't a driver issue. I forget exactly what your issue was originally | 20:30 |
| Ryvius | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8947503/ | 20:30 |
| solars | ChogyDan1, not sure about the improvement (graphics), not sure why the ondemand governor is missing, I'll check it | 20:30 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: alright so it's an SSD, latest firmware? | 20:31 |
| Ryvius | I have had disk trouble though. Got four harddrives conneted, but had to disconnect one because I think it was dying and making trouble | 20:31 |
| bekks | Ryvius: Why did you think that? | 20:31 |
| Ryvius | daftykins: Yes I checked just before installing ubuntu | 20:31 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: ok i'm out of input then. back to log checking for you as suggested earlier! | 20:31 |
| Ryvius | bekks: It was difficult to access it and it was hanging the system and booting and such, cant remember much anymore | 20:31 |
| bekks | Ryvius: Can you define "difficult to access" please? Was it on top of the shelf? :) | 20:32 |
| Ryvius | Okay, what do I have to look for in the logs? | 20:32 |
| pampuchy | hi i followed the instructions on digitalocean to run ghost with nginx, and now i cant access regular traffic! https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-host-ghost-with-nginx-on-digitalocean how do i get back my regular port 80 traffic? | 20:32 |
| Ryvius | bekks: Difficult to browse the contents and get it mounted and such | 20:32 |
| bekks | Ryvius: But you did not check smartctl or anything with that drive? | 20:33 |
| jhutchins | pampuchy: Ask digitalocean. | 20:33 |
| jimnak | how do you force quit something in ubuntu? | 20:33 |
| Bashing-om | Haruspex: What happens is that to Windows there is no other operating systems in existence, And when (re-)installing Windows, Windows writes it's own boot code to MBR, overwriting what was there. In order to boot ubuntu, one has to have the boot code for ubuntu installed where bios hands off to. IF both ubuntu and Windows are on the same hard disk ->Then install grub and chainload Windows onto grub. ( Windows will not recognize ubuntu !) | 20:33 |
| bekks | jimnak: Depends on what you want to force quit. | 20:33 |
| Ryvius | bekks: I think I checked with something. But I dont really care about that drive anymore anyways | 20:33 |
| Haruspex | Understood, Bashing-om, many thanks. | 20:34 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: do you have multiple disks in that system? | 20:34 |
| Ryvius | Yes, three connected now in addition to the system SSD | 20:34 |
| jimnak | okay found it | 20:34 |
| jimnak | thanks gusy | 20:34 |
| jimnak | guys | 20:34 |
| Haruspex | Good thing is, boot-repair is quite easy to use. | 20:34 |
| Ryvius | It might be one of those. I was getting SMART errors back in windows | 20:34 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: run my earlier command on them too | 20:34 |
| jimnak | alt + f2 and then type xkill in the search bar | 20:34 |
| jimnak | and then simply click on the program you're trying to close | 20:35 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: oh my tux. and you didn't think to mention that until NOW!? | 20:35 |
| Ryvius | Hmm how do I see what they are mounted as again.. | 20:36 |
| ReScO | so... | 20:36 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: their mount points are irrelevant. you run smartctl on /dev/sdX where X is the device | 20:37 |
| Ryvius | Oh yeah, but where do I see what sdX they are | 20:37 |

| JokesOnYou77 | I'm having trouble understanding the -H option for sudo from the manpage. I'm looking for an example of when/why I would use it | 20:47 |
| bekks | ReScO: You have to install one of the named packages for meeting the requirements. | 20:47 |
| daftykins | Ryvius: you could pull them and test that ubuntu becomes a lot happier. | 20:47 |
| ReScO | bekks: java is already installed for openfire | 20:47 |
| bekks | ReScO: But none of the packages required are installed. It doesnt matter that you already installed java manually, because that doesnt make openfire meet the requirements. | 20:48 |
| ReScO | ugh | 20:48 |
| ReScO | stupid apt-get | 20:48 |
| daftykins | no, stupid ReScO | 20:48 |

| Ryvius | Anyways thanks daftykins now I have something to try | 20:50 |
| ReScO | i've installed it manually by mv'ing the contents of the tarball to /usr/java/jdk1.8.0_25 then use a update-alternatives command and set the path and java_home and made sure it was exported | 20:52 |
| ReScO | @ bekks | 20:53 |
| Slart | JokesOnYou77: isn't that the "set HOME to roots home or user home" flag? so if you run something like sudo backup_stuff it will backup the stuff from your users home folder instead of the root home folder? | 20:53 |
| bekks | ReScO: Which doesnt magically change the requirements of openfire. Install on of the packages named, since it is missing. | 20:53 |

| bekks | ReScO: You dont have to. You just have to install of of the packages missing. | 20:55 |
| bekks | ReScO: Next, you just configure openfire for using your manually installed java version. | 20:55 |
| daftykins | HeyMan7: no don't try and install a driver from nvidia's website, it's going to _break_ | 20:55 |
| HeyMan7 | daftykins: Why's that? | 20:56 |

| Hganananavak | Ryvius: Does it allow me to do this? I.e. install Ubuntu on the SSD, but put hy /home and other partitions on the SATA drives? Because I want to allocate ~500GB to Ubuntu | 21:09 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Slart, Right, I think it sets the $HOME session variable? But I can't figure out if it's setting it to the value of the root user or to the user issuing the sudo command. I'm also not sure what that does for me. webupd8 has a tutorial that uses sudo -H to edit a file and I can't figure out why :P | 21:09 |

| HeyMan7 | daftykins: Wow! It runs awesome now! thank you! | 21:13 |

| adrin | Hi there, I guess I've got a problem with polkit. I'm trying to allow a user to install packages, but can't. | 21:33 |
| adrin | Here's what I have in /var/lib/... | 21:33 |
| adrin | http://fpaste.org/149841/41574158/ | 21:33 |
| adrin | and here's what I get: | 21:34 |
| adrin | http://fpaste.org/149843/41574164/ | 21:34 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: why are you using --user with pkexec and you're root? | 21:35 |
| adrin | Eric^^: yes I'm root, and I'm trying to see if it works for that user. | 21:35 |
| EriC^^ | you need privileges to install packages | 21:35 |
| adrin | Eric^^: as far as I understood, the way to give privileges to users is the policykit. How should I do it then? | 21:36 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: what are you trying to do? | 21:36 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: you want to install as that user (logged in) but with privileges? | 21:37 |
| adrin | Eric^^: I'd rather not make the user a suduer, I want that user to be able to install packages through apt-get | 21:37 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: ok, just add apt-get to the sudoers file | 21:37 |
| EriC^^ | sudo visudo | 21:37 |
| Phillies | Im having an issue with a vpn connection on ubuntu 14.10 i add it the same way i did before it says that it connects and its established but then it stops allowing traffic everything hangs | 21:38 |
| Phillies | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8948155/ is ip connected to vpn | 21:38 |
| EriC^^ | then add <user> ALL=(ALL:ALL) apt-get | 21:38 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: then the user can just sudo apt-get install | 21:39 |
| adrin | Eric^^: I know I can make the user a soduer, but policykit is there to make it unnecessary to change the sudoers file. Am I wrong? | 21:40 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: he won't be a sudoer | 21:40 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: he can only run apt-get with privileges | 21:40 |
| EriC^^ | so sudo <something else> won't work | 21:41 |
| EriC^^ | ( he wont be in the sudo group or admin group ) | 21:41 |
| EriC^^ | *adm group | 21:42 |
| Riku-san | so many people | 21:43 |

| juniour | hey can i make iso of my installed ubuntu using dd bs=4M if=/ of="myubuntu.iso, then after i can install it on other pc?? | 21:44 |
| Nik06 | Riku-san: its just idleing bots | 21:44 |
| Riku-san | ah | 21:44 |
| Nik06 | to make the statistics look good | 21:44 |
| Riku-san | then it's fine | 21:44 |
| Riku-san | but when too many people talk at once my client lags | 21:44 |
| Nik06 | there are ruffly 10/15 nicks per real user | 21:45 |
| Nik06 | but gods know | 21:45 |
| Nik06 | you cant talk at once on irc | 21:46 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: isn't LD_PRELOAD ignored if the real uid and effective uid are different? | 21:46 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: that should render sudo manipulation not possible right? | 21:46 |
| Riku-san | nobody likes helping me on the forums | 21:47 |
| juniour | hey can i make iso of my installed ubuntu using dd bs=4M if=/ of="myubuntu.iso", then after i can install it on other pc?? | 21:47 |
| Nik06 | you can make an app that waits for the user to sudo to do its thing | 21:47 |
| Riku-san | I usually get some moderator spewing "but 13.04 is no longer supported" | 21:47 |
| adrin | Eric^^: hmm, good point. | 21:47 |
| Nik06 | my apache could could remote sudo | 21:48 |
| Riku-san | I'm having a bug with what seems to be Xorg on my Nexus 7, sometimes touch stops working correctly | 21:49 |
| Nik06 | to bad they disabled that feature | 21:49 |

| Riku-san | I'm using the ubuntu desktop port for nexus 7 | 21:51 |

| Nik06 | im wondering how can you tell them apart | 21:51 |
| Nik06 | lol | 21:51 |
| rww | Riku-san: then we have the same response as the forums folks. #ubuntu only supports supported versions of Ubuntu. | 21:52 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: it could be an issue i think | 21:52 |
| xubuntu157964 | how do i disable swap in a live boot? | 21:52 |
| Riku-san | 1800 people and nobody will help me? | 21:52 |

| xubuntu157964 | need to create a partition | 21:52 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: seems that with sudo the real uid is also 0, it's different for suid programs i guess | 21:52 |
| Riku-san | where do I get "unsupported" help? | 21:52 |
| rww | Riku-san: no idea. | 21:52 |
| Nik06 | try google | 21:52 |
| EriC^^ | adrin: look into it more | 21:52 |
| juniour | xubuntu157964 see command swapoff | 21:53 |
| Nik06 | thats what i always do | 21:53 |
| Nik06 | stoped using irc for support ages ago | 21:53 |
| Riku-san | how do I get support in updating 13.04 to 14.04 or 14.10? | 21:53 |
| Riku-san | I need a preinstalled image with the correct drivers | 21:53 |
| k1l | Riku-san: run sudo do-release-upgrade | 21:53 |
| Riku-san | last time I did that it softbricked | 21:54 |
| juniour | Riku-san update to 14.04 as it has LTS support | 21:54 |
| k1l | Riku-san: you might need to change the repos since 13.04 repos are shut down already | 21:54 |
| Nik06 | you need to apt-get update apt-get upgrade | 21:54 |
| rww | I don't think anyone maintains Nexus 7 support for mainline Ubuntu these days. Could be wrong though. | 21:54 |
| Riku-san | but I can't because the drivers for the tegra3 and my wifi don't support a new version | 21:54 |
| Riku-san | rww: it says right on the page they dropped support in favour of ubuntu touch | 21:55 |
| k1l | Riku-san: ah, if its the arm nexus 7 port you might need to ask the arm guys in #ubuntu-arm | 21:55 |
| juniour | Riku-san alwasy do clean update not from old release, backup your data and install 14.04 from live cd or usb | 21:55 |
| daftykins | Riku-san: if you get a real computer to run ubuntu on we can help, otherwise it's game over. | 21:55 |
| xubuntu157964 | i cant seem to adjust a partition in gparted even though swap is off. this would be the first partition for the drive | 21:55 |

| juniour | hey can i make iso of my installed ubuntu using dd bs=4M if=/ of="myubuntu.iso", then after i can install it on other pc?? | 21:55 |

| rww | Nik06: and just like #debian, #ubuntu doesn't support it. | 21:56 |
| juniour | how would i make the replica of it so i can have it for my other pc too | 21:56 |
| rww | Nik06: so please don't recommend it here | 21:56 |
| EriC^^ | juniour: like dd if=/dev/sda1 (for example) of=myubuntu.iso | 21:56 |

| vpassapera | Hello all..... having some very strange issues when trying to run virtualbox on ubuntu 14.10 host | 22:16 |
| tapout | I've installed opengl 3.3 on ubuntu 14.04. As a regular user, glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version" will report 3.3. When I sudo to root, it reports 2.1. The /usr/bin/glxinfo is being executed in both cases, I can't figure out *why* this is?? The reason I need to figure out, i keep getting "libGL error: failed to open drm device: Permission denied" and "libGL error: failed to load driver: vmwgfx", | 22:16 |
| tapout | .. googling these, they say to add my current user to "video", and reboot. I do, and then the current user now has opengl 2.1. As soon as I remove the group "video", i'm back to 3.3 opengl | 22:16 |
| dm7freek | there's no jockey anything on my system, are you saying i need it to do on the cli what additional drivers does? | 22:16 |
| fwaokda | when trying to upgrade / install imagmagick I keep getting this error... can anyone offer a fix? Errors were encountered while processing: icedtea-netx:amd64 | 22:16 |

| dm7freek | *cli to do what... | 22:17 |
| tapout | ;g | 22:17 |
| EriC^^ | juniour: yes you can boot a live usb, mount the partitions, chroot, and grub-install then update-grub | 22:17 |
| tapout | h j. jy; ygh ty; | 22:17 |
| EriC^^ | juniour: if you do that there's no need to copy grub using dd | 22:17 |

| dm7freek | daftykins: i still don't follow, but Bashing-om's suggestion worked | 22:19 |

| nubcake | it's running ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a non-raid disk and i tried to add the two disks to a raid to mount them to a home dir | 22:25 |
| daftykins | you probably need some prerequisites installed prior to configuring the RAID member disks | 22:26 |
| daftykins | !raid | 22:26 |
| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 22:26 |

| Bashing-om | nubcake: See daftykins elective directive for 'raid' .. raid meta data ? | 22:27 |
| distant_voice | EriC^^ will that remove the module for the kernel that I currently use or the one that I modified? | 22:27 |
| EriC^^ | distant_voice: --all is for all kernels | 22:28 |
| nubcake | Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/q3q7SDMw for the 2nd | 22:29 |
| EriC^^ | you can specify the kernel with -k <kernel>/<arch> | 22:29 |
| nubcake | Bashing-om, thanks, will do | 22:29 |
| distant_voice | EriC11 https://github.com/pvaret/rtl8192cu-fixes/blob/master/README.md this is what I did. Now I don't what <name>/<version> is exactly. Any idea? | 22:30 |
| Bashing-om | nubcake: Raid tools are not installed on the desk top releases. Can down load them OR use the server edition to look at 'raid' . | 22:30 |
| EriC^^ | distant_voice: the name/version is 8192cu/1.9 | 22:31 |
| nubcake | Bashing-om, ok thanks, didnt know i had to use the server release | 22:32 |
| Bashing-om | nubcake: :) .. Raid is non desk top. so other means must be employed to look at what is ( embedded raid meta data) . | 22:33 |
| Phillies | is it possible to point only certain traffic thru a vpn on nix | 22:33 |
| distant_voice | EriC^^ thanks a lot. I'm not sure if it worked perfectly, but will reboot now to see if it did. | 22:33 |

| jason___ | Whatever the reason my sytem only has apt-get. | 22:48 |
| Riku-san | how do I edit a disk image (.img)? | 22:48 |
| Riku-san | it has multiple partitions | 22:48 |
| k1l | jason___: then use apt-cache search | 22:49 |
| Riku-san | I'm trying to modify the 13.04 ubuntu image for nexus 7 and replace the contents of the rootfs with my new ones (14.04 armhf preinstalled, modded with drivers from linuxfortegra) | 22:49 |
| Riku-san | or maybe what I'm looking for is how do I make a disk image from a directory? | 22:50 |
| Riku-san | can I just dd a directory? | 22:50 |
| bubbasaures | Riku-san, nice idea but none is really supported here technically. | 22:51 |
| Riku-san | just need to know how to make a disk image from a folder or edit one | 22:51 |
| bubbasaures | Riku-san, I would talk with the #ubuntu-touch channel | 22:51 |
| Riku-san | this is a generic ubuntu/linux question | 22:52 |
| bubbasaures | or ##linux this is supported ubuntu is all | 22:52 |
| nopf | Riku-san: i don't know what format your img is. mount it and use normal file system commands | 22:52 |
| Riku-san | nvm googled | 22:53 |
| bubbasaures | Riku-san, I'm just trying to point out you don't call your dentist for a colostomy. ;) | 22:53 |
| nopf | bubbasaures: neither a dentist nor a colon can dd a directory | 22:54 |
| bubbasaures | duh, oh geez, the stupidity abounds | 22:54 |
| Riku-san | well I'm going to try it, I'm not touching the bootloader so worst case scenario is a softbrick | 22:54 |

| JeanValJean | WeeChat hasnt been updated in the repo since 2013, is it normal? | 23:00 |
| Prezident | yes | 23:00 |
| JeanValJean | how come Prezident | 23:01 |
| k1l | JeanValJean: have there been weechat updates? | 23:01 |
| Prezident | 1.0.1 is latest k1l | 23:01 |
| Prezident | 0.3 in ubuntu and 0.4 in debian repo i think | 23:01 |
| JeanValJean | yes k1l, like last september | 23:01 |
| k1l | !info weechat | 23:01 |
| ubottu | weechat (source: weechat): Fast, light and extensible chat client. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.1-1 (utopic), package size 2 kB, installed size 71 kB | 23:01 |
| k1l | version 1.0.1 is in 14.04 | 23:01 |
| Prezident | Mouse Toggle rocks in weechat | 23:02 |
| Prezident | /mouse toggle | 23:02 |
| k1l | i bet the verison jump to 1 was after the freeze for 14.04 | 23:02 |
| Prezident | Not when i tried last time, maybe it was in last updates | 23:02 |
| ZerOlegend | is that like bitchX | 23:02 |
| k1l | *14.10 | 23:02 |
| JeanValJean | weird k1l, I just apt-get install weechat (I'm on 14.04) and it installed me old version :/ | 23:02 |
| k1l | version 1.0.1 is in 14.10 << sorry i mixed ubuntu version numbers | 23:03 |
| ZerOlegend | repositories are rarely if ever current version | 23:03 |
| JeanValJean | why is it not updated for Trusty? | 23:03 |
| k1l | Prezident: JeanValJean the version 1.0 was released in august 2014. so it was after the freeze for 14.04. that is why 14.10 got the version 1 | 23:03 |
| JeanValJean | so no hope for getting the latest version? | 23:04 |
| k1l | JeanValJean: because of the freeze. there are only bugfixes and security fixes after release. | 23:04 |
| Prezident | Tell Flashcode to talk with repo devolopers | 23:04 |
| ZerOlegend | compile by source? | 23:04 |
| Prezident | Maybe they can sort it, i dont know real reason behind it | 23:04 |
| k1l | JeanValJean: you can ask the maintainer if he thinks updating it in the repo is sufficient | 23:04 |
| JeanValJean | alright | 23:05 |
| k1l | if you want the latest version all the time update your ubuntu release. LTS means its stable. that includes that not all programs change version all the time | 23:05 |
| k1l | file a bug or better a request for update version | 23:06 |
| ZerOlegend | interesting that weechat is with Ruby | 23:08 |
| ZerOlegend | and tcl support | 23:08 |

| MonkeyDust | Riku-san that would be for #ubuntu+1 | 23:10 |
| Riku-san | I didn't intend to download that image... | 23:10 |
| Riku-san | I was just saying | 23:10 |
| Riku-san | better question, why is the image I'm making getting larger than the source? | 23:11 |
| Riku-san | is it because of the byte size I picked? | 23:11 |
| Riku-san | my source is 759MB, but my image is going upwards of 2GB | 23:14 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: What are you doing? | 23:15 |
| Riku-san | making a disk image of a directory with dd if=~/directory/ of=~/directory.img bs=512 conv=noerror,sync | 23:16 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: You can't make a disk image of a directory, that doesn't even conceptually make sense. What is the exact command you ran? | 23:16 |
| Riku-san | what I said, but with different names | 23:17 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: What were those names? What is the exact command you ran? | 23:17 |
| jimmy51v_ | i think that's going to keep going until the end of the volume | 23:17 |
| Riku-san | dd if=~/ubuntu/ of=~/ubuntu-15.04-armhf-preinstalled+nexus7.img bs=512 conv=noerror,sync | 23:18 |
| Riku-san | I think I should kill it | 23:18 |
| OerHeks | jimmy51v_ +1 | 23:18 |
| Riku-san | killed it and removed the .img | 23:19 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: dd refuses to do anything when if= points to a directory. Are you sure that's the command you ran? | 23:19 |
| Riku-san | yes | 23:19 |
| Riku-san | but I think the conv=noerror made it ignore that and keep copying garbage data indefinitely | 23:19 |
| Riku-san | I'm sure this is possible since preinstalled images exist | 23:20 |
| Riku-san | how do I take the contents of a folder and make it a .img ? | 23:20 |
| jimmy51v_ | Riku-san: i think you should create a blank img, mount it, then populate it. | 23:20 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: Did you look at the output of dd? It should have consisted almost entirely of error messages about if being a directory. | 23:20 |
| Riku-san | jimmy51v_, how do I go about doing that? | 23:21 |
| Riku-san | Jordan_U, yes, it was all errors | 23:21 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: What is your end goal? | 23:21 |
| Riku-san | to flash my modded ubuntu image to a device | 23:21 |
| k1l | Riku-san: the arm guys do have a lot more experience with that. | 23:23 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: How did you populate the directory ~/ubuntu/ ? There is much more needed for a bootable disk image than just files. | 23:23 |
| Riku-san | Jordan_U, with the contents of the bootable image I downloaded | 23:23 |
| Riku-san | which was a tar.gz with a rootfs in it | 23:23 |
| Riku-san | I then patched in some files, now I need a .img | 23:24 |
| Jordan_U | Riku-san: OK. Were there instructions provided on how you would have made a .img from the original tar.gz you downloaded? | 23:25 |
| Riku-san | no | 23:25 |
| Riku-san | got it here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/daily-preinstalled/current/ | 23:25 |

| Mightcould3 | Hey guys i got a simple issue i cant figure out, my sound works, listening to youtube music right now. i got my game up (warzone) and usually the audio works in it. but now its not. i got the pulse audio window open and through the playback option i need to change it from HDA to built in analog. in the drop down menu its there. (not greyed out) but when i click on it to change it, nothing happens. i cannot hear the ga | 23:44 |
| Mightcould3 | me sound cause it wont let me switch the playback line to analog. any help would be much appreciated! thanks | 23:44 |
| OerHeks | Mightcould3, maybe check the warzone settings, as it worked ? | 23:45 |
| yok | hello | 23:46 |
| Bashing-om | randomminds: Humm .. gnutls is not in the 14.04 repo, what returns -> which gnutls <- ? | 23:46 |
| yok | i m new | 23:46 |
| Mightcould3 | OerHeks, inside the game there is no option to change the sound device. only way to do it is through the pulse audio window to my knowledge. why wont it swtich over? isn't there a way to force it over? that simple little setting is whats keeping me from hearing my dull game music :( | 23:46 |
| OerHeks | Mightcould3, maybe you need change it before you start warzone? | 23:47 |
| randomminds | Bashing-om, nothing | 23:47 |
| Mightcould3 | yeah warzone normally works fine with sound. and i cant change it before hand as it doesnt pop up in the pulse window untill the game is launched | 23:47 |
| yok | first time i use chat stuff | 23:47 |
| randomminds | Bashing-om, whereis says gnutls: /usr/include/gnutls | 23:48 |
| squinty | gnutls-bin package maybe? | 23:49 |
| Mightcould3 | like i just dont understand why its doing this, in windows you select the default sound device and then everything's sound goes through that device. Here apparently thats not an option and being new to linux idk how to solve that. :( | 23:49 |
| Bashing-om | randomminds: I do not know, 'which' should have returned a location of the binary - I would think . How did yopu install 'gnutls" ? | 23:50 |
| randomminds | Bashing-om, I installed libgnutls-dev | 23:50 |
| Mightcould3 | is there a cli cmd to force the sound output to the correct one? | 23:50 |
| k1l | Mightcould3: very old games still use oss or stuff. | 23:51 |
| OerHeks | Mightcould3, warzone 2100 works fine here, analog try speakers or digital tru stereoset | 23:53 |
| Mightcould3 | K1l. yeah but it worked just fine before two days ago. all that has to happen is when i click on the dropdown box, when i click on analog it just needs to listen and go to analog. like youtube currently is and audio works fine. isnt there a way to force that? Otherwise seems like linux has the power to defy its user and thats gonna send me running back to windows. and i hate that idea. | 23:53 |
| OerHeks | Mightcould3, open terminal: alsamixer # and see if you can change something | 23:53 |
| Mightcould3 | ok | 23:53 |
| k1l | Mightcould3: shut down youtube | 23:53 |
| Mightcould3 | shutdown youtube? dont tell me linux is limited to one app per sound device.... | 23:54 |
| k1l | Mightcould3: it is about softwaremixing. back than you could not easily hear 2 sounds at a time. and since that game is that old it got that old restrictions | 23:54 |
| k1l | Mightcould3: please pastebin /etc/openal/alsoft.conf | 23:54 |
| Mightcould3 | ok so its the games fault? if so thats cool. but if thats a linux thing imma have to lol @ it. | 23:55 |
| Mightcould3 | K1l per4mission was deniued | 23:55 |
| k1l | Mightcould3: its the games fault. no need to rage against ubuntu in that case | 23:55 |
| Mightcould3 | K1l, good cause the past 2 weeks i fell in love with ubuntu. im so happy with it. actually i use xubuntu. and omg its the best OS ever. i get wobbly windows, a 3d cube. conky. and i feel more progressive using it :D | 23:56 |
| Bashing-om | randomminds: Config issue ? apt-cache depends libgnutls-dev >> Suggests: gnutls-bin . Maybe not installed ? | 23:57 |
| Mightcould3 | kinda like a San Franciso guy with his Hybrid car, i feel so awesome now that im a wiz with ubuntu and the software center. i can totally install ubu + conky on like any computer :0 | 23:58 |
| Jordan_U | Mightcould3: What "pulse audio window" are you seeing the stream in? | 23:58 |
| Mightcould3 | Jordan_U, well the sound settings windows from the speaker icon on the taskbar | 23:58 |
| Mightcould3 | i see the game, i see the sound bar jumping to indicate sound is coming from that stream. however i just cannot change the output line, so imma close youtube and restart the game | 23:59 |
